##### ##### Overview and Background A common way to capture the current dominant cycle length is to detrend the price and look for common rhythms in the detrended series. A common approach is to use a [Detrended Price Oscillator](https://www.tradingview.com/scripts/detrendedpriceoscillator/) ( [DPO](https://www.tradingview.com/scripts/detrendedpriceoscillator/) ). This is done in order to identify and isolate short-term cycles. A basic [DPO](https://www.tradingview.com/scripts/detrendedpriceoscillator/) description can be found [here.](https://www.tradingview.com/support/solutions/43000502246-detrended-price-oscillator-dpo/) ##### ##### Improvements to the standard DPO The main purpose of the standard [DPO](https://www.tradingview.com/scripts/detrendedpriceoscillator/) is to analyze historical data in order to observe cycle's in a market's movement. [DPO](https://www.tradingview.com/scripts/detrendedpriceoscillator/) can give the technical analyst a better sense of a cycle's typical high/low range as well as its duration. However, you need to manually try to "see" tops and bottoms on the detrended price and measure manually the distance from low-low or high-high in order to derive a possible cycle length. This indicators adds the following improvements: 1\) Using a [DPO](https://www.tradingview.com/scripts/detrendedpriceoscillator/) to detrend the price (can be turned on or off) 2\) Indicate the turns of the detrended price with a [ZigZag](https://www.tradingview.com/scripts/zigzagindicator/) lines to better see the tops/bottoms 3\) Detrend the [ZigZag](https://www.tradingview.com/scripts/zigzagindicator/) to remove price amplitude between turns to even better see the cyclic turns ("rhythm") 4\) Measure the distance from last detrended [zigzag](https://www.tradingview.com/scripts/zigzagindicator/) [pivot](https://www.tradingview.com/scripts/pivotpoints/) (high-high / low-low) and plot the distance in bars above/below the turn Now, you we can clearly see the rhythm of the dataset indicated by the **Detrended Rhythm Oscillator** including the exact length between the turns. This makes the procedure to "spot" turns and "measure" distance more simple for the trader. ##### How to use this information The purpose is to check if there is a common rhythm or beat in the underlying dataset. To check that, look for recurring pattern in the numbers. E.g. if you often see the same measured distance, you can conclude that there is a major dominant cycle in this market. Also watch for [harmonic](https://www.tradingview.com/scripts/harmonicpatterns/) relations between the numbers. So in the example above you see the highlighted cluster of detected length of around 40 and 80. There three numbers all have a [harmonic](https://www.tradingview.com/scripts/harmonicpatterns/) relation to 40. Once you have this cyclic information, you can use this number to optimize or tune technical indicators based on the current dominant cycle length. E.g. set the length parameter of a technical indicator to the detected [harmonic](https://www.tradingview.com/scripts/harmonicpatterns/) length with the [DRO ](https://www.tradingview.com/symbols/ASX-DRO/) indicator.Disclaimer: This is not meant to be a technical indicator on its own and the derived cyclic length should not be used to forecast the next turn per se. The indicator should give you an indication of the current market beat or dominant beats which can be use to further optimize other oscillators which require length settings as input pararmeters.
# Cyclic Smoothed RSI Indicator The **cyclic smoothed RSI** indicator is an enhancement of the classic Relative Strength Index [(RSI)](https://www.tradingview.com/scripts/relativestrengthindex/). The cyclic smoothed RSI indicator was first introduced in the book "Decoding the Hidden Market Rhythm Part 1: Dynamic Cycles" ([LINK](https://www.whentotrade.com/book-part1/ "WhenToTrade Book Dynamic Cycles smoothed RSI indicator")) and the indicator code has been made public for different charting platforms. It helps to avoid the noisy signal of the RSI with static oversold/oversold areas, usually leading to many false trade signals and thus to many whipsaw trades. The csRSI therefore provides a much cleaner, zero-lag signal line with adaptive bands to help identifying better trade signals. ##### Advanced Features - Signal and dynamic oversold/overbought calculation according to the dominant cycle length to keep the signal line better in sync with the current market cycle - Ultra-Smooth indicator signal without additional lag (zero-lag indicator) - Adaptive bands to better adjust oversold/overbought areas to market phases (trending/cycling) - Better divergence detection to spot strong signals For more information, please read the referenced book Chapter 4 "Fine tuning technical indicators".

# Cycle Swing Indicator The **Cycle Swing Indicator** indicator is an enhancement of the classic Momentum indicator. The cyclic-tuned momentum indicator was first introduced in the book "Decoding the Hidden Market Rhythm Part 1: Dynamic Cycles" ([LINK](https://www.whentotrade.com/book-part1/ "WhenToTrade Book Dynamic Cycles smoothed RSI indicator")) and the indicator code has been made public for different charting platforms.
