Trend Strength Index

Frank Hassler introduced this measurement. It was discussed on Frank's Blog Engineering Returns http://engineering-returns.com/2010/06/28/aapl-ts/, and it was highlighted and researched by David Varadi of CSS Analytics in his blog http://cssanalytics.wordpress.com/2010/06/28/trend-strength-index-tsi/, and subsequent posts.

David uses the following summary of TSI: "The TSI is an intermediate-term absolute (versus relative ) measure of the tendency of a stock to trend or mean revert. The premise underlying the theory is that stocks with a high degree of momentum in relation to volatility are much less likely to mean-revert than those that have a low degree of momentum in relation to volatility."

TSI shows promise in being used as a superior replacement for the ADX. It can be looked at to help determine when a security is trending or mean reverting, and it can also be used as a filter or ranking element within a system.

The formula works as follows:

TSI = Average(Average(Ratio,10),100)
Ratio = (abs(today's close - close of 10 days ago) / atr(10)
atr10 is 10 day average true range

Trading financial instruments, including foreign exchange on margin, carries a high level of risk and is not suitable for all investors. The high degree of leverage can work against you as well as for you. Before deciding to invest in financial instruments or foreign exchange you should carefully consider your investment objectives, level of experience, and risk appetite. The possibility exists that you could sustain a loss of some or all of your initial investment and therefore you should not invest money that you cannot afford to lose. You should be aware of all the risks associated with trading and seek advice from an independent financial advisor if you have any doubts.
