What does Laguerre RSI measure?
An ultra-smooth 0-to-1 momentum gauge that barely lags. It sits pinned at the extremes during trends and swings quickly at turns.
How is Laguerre RSI calculated?
Pass the close through a four-stage filter chain, each stage holding back a fraction 0.5 of what it received. Then compare how much the chain rose against how much it fell, and express the up part as a share of the total.
Written by reading the engine’s real computation, not a textbook — where the two differ, the page describes what actually runs.
How do I use Laguerre RSI in a bot?
In the builder, add an indicator of type laguerre_rsi (parameters: gamma, default 0.5). Its value becomes an operand you can compare in any entry or exit rule. The engine grades the whole rule honestly: real fills, no look-ahead, half the history held back.
