EA_SMI

EA_SMI  is based on SMI indicator.

The Stochastic Momentum Index (SMI) is a technical indicator used to assess the momentum and direction of a trend. It is an improved version of the traditional Stochastic Oscillator, designed to provide a more accurate reflection of price changes. Below is an explanation of the basic concepts and usage of the SMI.

Basic Concepts of SMI

1. Calculation Method:
   • The SMI measures where the current price stands relative to the range of prices over a specific period, considering the highest high and the lowest low.
   • First, the median price of the specified period (average of the highest high and the lowest low) is calculated.
   • Then, the deviation of the current price from this median is determined and normalized over the range of that period.
   • Based on these calculations, two moving averages are used to compute the SMI.
2. Formulas:
   • Median Price (MP): MP=Highest High+Lowest Low2MP=2Highest High+Lowest Low​
   • Deviation: $\text{Deviation}=\text{Current Price}-\text{MP}$
   • Moving Average of Deviation (D): $\text{D}=\text{SMA}(\text{Deviation},K)$
   • Moving Average of Range: $\text{Range}=\text{SMA}(\text{Highest High}-\text{Lowest Low},K)$
   • SMI: SMI=100×DRangeSMI=100×RangeD​

Features of SMI

• Zero Line: The SMI fluctuates between +100 and -100, using the zero line as a reference point to indicate upward (positive values) or downward (negative values) trends.
• Trend Strength: Higher values indicate a stronger trend, while lower values suggest a weaker trend.
• Overbought/Oversold: Generally, values above +40 indicate overbought conditions, and values below -40 indicate oversold conditions, though specific thresholds can be adjusted.

How to Use SMI

1. Trend Confirmation:
   • When the SMI crosses above the zero line, it indicates the start of an upward trend.
   • When the SMI crosses below the zero line, it indicates the start of a downward trend.
2. Buy/Sell Signals:
   • A downward turn in the SMI from overbought levels can be seen as a sell signal.
   • An upward turn in the SMI from oversold levels can be seen as a buy signal.
3. Divergence:
   • If prices form a new high or low but the SMI does not follow suit, it suggests a potential trend reversal (divergence).
