Laguerre SuperTrend Clouds

Laguerre SuperTrend Clouds adds an Adaptive Laguerre averaging algorithm and alerts to the widely popular SuperTrend indicator. As the name suggests, Laguerre SuperTrend Clouds (LSC) is a trending indicator which works best in trendy (not choppy) markets.

The SuperTrend is an extremely popular indicator for intraday and daily trading, and can be used on any timeframe. Incorporating Laguerre's equation to this can facilitate more robust trend detection and smoother filters. The LSC uses the improved version of Adaptive Laguerre's equation (that applies Laguerre polynomials of any order), to create SuperTrend Confidence Clouds that flexibly adjust over time, giving more information on growing and fading trend strengths.

Place a call when the price closes above the leading line, and place a put when the price closes below the leading line. These crossovers are highlighted by non-repainting up/down arrows.

• [opt] Adaptive Factor Smoothing Period (Default=5) - period to smooth the Laguerre Gamma adaptive factor [advanced option].
• [opt] Adaptive Factor Smoothing Method (Default=Median) - averaging method used for smoothing Gamma adaptive factor [advanced option].

• alert when price crosses LSC leading edge - True = alerts are allowed, false = all alerts are paused.
