SMI Ergodic Indicator/Oscillator of Money Flow Index
Introduction
The SMI Ergodic Indicator/Oscillator of Money Flow Index represents a groundbreaking fusion of two powerful technical analysis concepts: the precision of Stochastic Momentum Index Ergodic analysis combined with the volume-weighted intelligence of the Money Flow Index. This innovative indicator transforms traditional momentum analysis by incorporating buying and selling pressure directly into the ergodic calculation, providing unprecedented insights into market strength and direction.
