Low-Latency Harmonic Filtering for Smoothing Bulls Power

Summary

This indicator example smooths the Bulls Power time series by filtering out higher-order harmonics. The described approach can also be applied to the output of other indicators. Its stated advantage is near-zero latency, which is relevant when smoothing signals without the delay often associated with moving averages.

The inputs include the Bulls Power calculation period, moving-average method, volume type, series length, smoothing coefficient, and horizontal shift. The series length is constrained to powers of two, while the smoothing coefficient controls which frequencies in the resulting spectrum are zeroed. At the maximum coefficient, the document says the series is repeated. No chart details, comparative measurements, trading rules, or performance tests are supplied, so the latency and smoothing characteristics are presented as claims of the indicator description rather than independently quantified results. The note explains a signal-processing technique, not a complete trading strategy.

Key ideas

• The indicator smooths Bulls Power by filtering higher-order harmonics in its time series.
• The same filtering approach is described as applicable to other indicator outputs.
• The smoothing coefficient sets a frequency cutoff, while the series length uses powers of two.
• The document claims practically no latency but provides no measurements or strategy performance evidence.
