RSI + Elder Bull-Bear pressure

RSI + Bull/Bear (Elder-Ray enhanced RSI)

What it is
An extended RSI that overlays Elder-Ray Bull/Bear Power on the same, zero-centered scale. You get classic RSI regime cues plus a live read of buy/sell pressure, with optional smoothing, bands, and right-edge value labels.

Key features


RSI with bands – default bands 30 / 50 / 70 (editable).
Bull/Bear Power (Elder) – ATR-normalized; optional EMA/SMA/RMA/HMA smoothing.
One-pane overlay – RSI and Bull/Bear share a common midline (RSI-50 ↔ panel 0).
Right-edge labels – always visible at the chart’s right margin with adjustable offsets.





How to read it
Cyan line = RSI (normalized)
Above the mid band = bullish regime; below = bearish regime.
Green = Bull Power, Red = Bear Power
Columns/lines above 0 show buy pressure; below 0 show sell pressure.
Smoothing reduces noise; zero-line remains your key reference.


Trade logic (simple playbook)
Entry

BUY (primary):
RSI crosses up through 50 (regime turns bullish), and
Bull (green) crosses up through 0 (buy pressure confirms).

SELL (primary):
RSI crosses down through 50, and
Bear (red) crosses down through 0 (sell pressure confirms).




Alternative momentum entries
Aggressive BUY: Bull (green) pushes above RSI-80 band (strong upside impulse).
Aggressive SELL: Bear (red) pushes below RSI-30 band (strong downside impulse).

Exits / trade management


In a long: consider exiting or tightening stops if Bear (red) dips below the 0 line (rising sell pressure) or RSI loses 50.
In a short: consider exiting or tightening if Bull (green) rises above 0 or RSI reclaims 50.



Tip: “0” on the panel is your pressure zero-line (maps to RSI-50). Most whipsaws happen near this line; smoothing (e.g., EMA 21) helps.


Defaults (on first load)

RSI bands: 30 / 50 / 70 with subtle fills.
Labels: tiny, pushed far right (large offsets).
Bull/Bear smoothing: EMA(21), smoothed line plot mode.
RSI plotted normalized so it overlaps the pressure lines cleanly.

Tighten or loosen the Bull/Bear thresholds (e.g., Bull ≥ +0.5 ATR, Bear ≤ −0.5 ATR) to demand stronger confirmation.



Settings that matter
Smoothing length/type – balances responsiveness vs. noise.
Power/RSI Gain – visual scaling only (doesn’t change logic).
Band placement – keep raw 30/50/80 or switch to “distance from 50” if you prefer symmetric spacing.

Label offsets – move values clear of the last bar/scale clutter.



Good practices
Combine with structure/ATR stops (e.g., 1–1.5× ATR, swing high/low).
In trends, hold while RSI stays above/below 50 and the opposite pressure line doesn’t dominate.


In ranges, favor signals occurring near the mid band and take profits at the opposite band.
