Rfactory: Ken Long RLCO Framework

30 apr 2021

Rfactory has partnered with Dr Ken Long of Tortoise Capital Management to provide his complete RLCO Framework into a single seamless TradingView indicator along with his most recent MACD Seasons work. This is by far the quickest and easiest way to get up and running with a beautifully crafted RLCO Framework in just a few clicks.

Dr Long developed the RLCO (Regression Line Cross Over) Framework as a statistical lens through which he trades the markets and has taught the approach to countless traders through Dr Van Tharp's IITM as well as his own workshops and trading community.

All elements of the Framework are preconfigured and the indicator includes a custom "Stats" overlay with daily range statistics (such as FrogBox, Hybrid FrogBox, Rangestat, etc). Each element of the RLCO Framework can be enabled or disabled at the click of a button via the indictor settings.

The RLCO Framework elements include the Linear Regression lines (RL10, RL30, RL90, RL270), the Bands (River, Flood Plain & Z3 Bands as well as the Dragon and the Baby Dragon) and a host of other Supplemental tools that are often used in conjunction with the above including VWAP, PSAR and the customized PSAR on the RL10 that Dr. Long pioneered.

In order to keep an eye on intraday volatility the Z3 bands will change color to yellow when we enter an SQC (Sideways Quiet Channel) environment to alert the trader.

Each element has been carefully designed with pre-configured and deliberate layering, coloring and translucency settings by default so it looks gorgeous out of the box but can also be customized to taste using the usual TradingView indicator settings.

For an even more intuitive experience you can monitor the MACD Season at a glance from within the RLCO Framework itself by coloring either the RL10 line or the Dragon by MACD Season which has become a very popular feature.

Also available (although it is a separate indicator it is included along with the framework) is the MACD Seasons Indicator which is loaded into its own sub-graph. All settings are preconfigured to be the same as Dr. Long uses out of the box and the plots include the MACD line colored by Season, the Signal line and the Red River. SSC (Spring Supported Crossing) Signals are specifically highlighted with large Dots on the MACD Line. Everything is customizable including not only coloring and line styles but also the underlying settings for lookbacks as well as a selector to use SMA's or EMA's for the calculations.
