SMI Ergodic Indicator + Oscillator
This indicator is one that I came across a while ago. The main way this indicator works is a lot like the True Strength Index except it also adds a signal line. I like to think of it as a faster MACD that gives you a chance to lag a little less behind the MACD. This of course comes with the additional risk of fake-outs being prevalent. The signal line in the indicator allows you to use the EMA in the indicator itself and adds another indicator that it's either going to do a reversal or confirm trend.
In the indicator I created it has the Oversold and Overbought areas highlighted to show the oscillators function as kind of an RSI + MACD indicator. There is also added crossing alerts in the form of circles (or whatever you want to change it to) indicating a cross of the SMI line and the Signal EMA line. This is usually the point where you want to make an entrance or exit point. The Overbought and Oversold zones are adjustable to wherever you as a trader feel comfortable having them be.
I also combined bother the SMI and Signal line with the SMI Oscillator adding a histogram.
