QQE Weighted Oscillator [LuxAlgo]

10 ago 2023

The QQE (Quantitative Qualitative Estimation) Weighted Oscillator improves on its original version by weighting the RSI based on the indications given by the trailing stop, requiring more effort in order for a cross with the trailing stop to occur.

🔶 USAGE



The QQE Weighted Oscillator is comprised of a smoothed RSI oscillator and a trailing stop derived from this same RSI. The oscillator can be used to indicate whether the market is overbought/oversold as well as an early indication of trend reversals thanks to the leading nature of the RSI.



Using higher Factor values will return a longer-term trailing stop.



Like with a regular RSI divergence can be indicative of a reversal.

Further weighting will control how much "effort" is required for the trailing stop to cross the RSI. For example. For example, an RSI above the trailing stop will require a higher degree of negative price variations in order for a potential cross to occur when using higher weights.



This can cause higher weightings to return more cyclical and smoother results.

🔶 SETTINGS

• Length: Length of the RSI oscillator.
  
• Factor: Multiplicative factor used for the trailing stop calculation.
  
• Smooth: Degree of smoothness of the RSI oscillator.
  
• Weight: Degree of weighting used for the RSI calculation.
