ATR-Adaptive Laguerre RSI with Laguerre Smoothing

Summary

This document describes a modified Laguerre RSI indicator that adapts its behavior using average true range and applies a Laguerre filter to smooth the RSI values. The author characterizes both the adaptation and smoothing as dynamic features, with the smoothing added to reduce false signals compared with a conventional version of the formula. Suggested signals come from changes in the indicator’s color.

The indicator is presented as better suited to short-term decisions because its adaptive behavior is intended to respond more readily to recent trend changes than to longer-term movements. The document offers no parameter values, formal definition of the adaptation, chart examples, backtest, or performance statistics. It therefore explains the intended construction and use but does not establish whether smoothing reduces false signals or whether color changes produce reliable trades. Any use would require implementation details and independent testing.

Key ideas

• The indicator adapts a Laguerre RSI using average true range.
• A Laguerre filter smooths RSI values to try to reduce false signals.
• Color changes are suggested as possible signals.
• The author presents the indicator as more appropriate for short-term decisions than long-term trend analysis.
• No parameter details or empirical evidence are provided to validate the claimed signal behavior.
