WaveTrend Oscillator [Krypt]

fskrypt Updated   
This is similar to regular WaveTrend Oscillator except:

- replaces hlc3 input with a weighted log formula for better stability/performance on high volatility charts
- zero-centered scaling
- SMA crossovers above and below OB/OS thresholds are marked as buy/sell signals
Release Notes:
Use SMA curvature information to filter out buy/sell signals likely to be false positives
Release Notes:
Rename some chart objects
Release Notes:
Long/Short signal now captures some cases of bullish and bearish divergences
Release Notes:
Use extra signal smoothing and extra momentum check for curvature
Release Notes:
improve buy/sell signals
Release Notes:
don't make helper elements editable
Release Notes:
start drawing signal earlier, perform averaging on cross steps for more stable bullish/bearish divergence detection
Release Notes:
use a 1+2 formula for curvature
Release Notes:
Default to lower smoothing to still show something on the chart in the beginning
Release Notes:
switch back to 4 for default SMA length
Release Notes:
Improve sensitivity in the beginning of the chart
Release Notes:
add comment
Release Notes:
Replace final EMA smoother with Ehlers' smoother for higher sensitivity
Release Notes:
Ignore first candle
Release Notes:
reduce default smoothing slightly and allow zero smoothing
Release Notes:
do not count MA cross above overbought level as bottom, and likewise do not count count MA cross below oversold level as top.
Release Notes:
Simplify generation of buy/sell signals
Release Notes:
fix how continues climb/descent is determined
Release Notes:
detect hidden divergences
Release Notes:
Update colors to make this indicator suitable for either light or dark T/V color modes
Release Notes:
quantitatively weigh bullish and bearish signals
