FTI - Core
Flow Trend Index (FTI) - Core
The Flow Trend Index (FTI) combines momentum, trend, and volatility into a single adaptive visual layer.
It measures how strongly the market is moving (flow), where its fair-value baseline lies (trend), and how far price has stretched beyond it (volatility zones).This unified view helps traders — especially beginners — instantly recognize when the market is gaining strength, losing momentum, or shifting direction, and especially when conditions are overbought or oversold.
- Built for new analysts who value simplicity, precision, and visual clarity — without complicated settings or unnecessary noise.
- Smoothed RSI — powered by Heikin-Ashi
────────────
Origin
Developed by J. Welles Wilder Jr. in 1978, the Relative Strength Index (RSI) measures the velocity and magnitude of price change to detect momentum extremes.
Classic RSI oscillates between 0 – 100, but its raw form is often noisy and delayed.
Classic RSI plots a line that oscillates between 0 – 100; however, it can be noisy and lagging when used alone.
Zyro’s Adaptation
FTI-Core merges RSI directly into candle bodies — turning abstract momentum into color.
Gradients shift fluidly as momentum builds or fades, giving an immediate visual sense of strength, weakness, and exhaustion.
Heikin-Ashi Smoothing
Heikin-Ashi (“average bar”) blends open, high, low, and close values, producing smoother data.
When RSI is calculated from these values, short-term fluctuations are filtered out, leaving only genuine momentum waves.
You still view standard candles, but your RSI logic is smoothed beneath the surface.
Why this matters:
This produces a smoothed representation of market flow — slower to react to noise but more reflective of true momentum.
- Overbought/oversold levels align with real exhaustion.
- Less reactive to noise, more truthful to trend energy.
- Color gradients reflect true momentum flow, not random volatility.
In short:
Heikin-Ashi RSI refines extremes, revealing authentic overbought and oversold states hidden in raw data.
- McGinley Dynamic Line — Adaptive Market Smoothing
────────────
Origin
Created by John R. McGinley, CMT in the 1990s to correct a flaw in traditional moving averages.
Simple / Exponential MAs use fixed-length periods that lag in fast markets and overreact in slow ones.
How It Works
The McGinley Dynamic adjusts its smoothing speed using the ratio between current price and its own average.
- When price accelerates → the line speeds up to follow.
- When price decelerates → it slows down to filter chop.
Original McGinley formula:
Where:
- Mt = current McGinley value
- Mt−1 = previous McGinley value
- Pt = current price (usually close)
- N = chosen length (e.g., 14)
This keeps the line close to price — stable, fluid, and free of EMA-style whipsaws.
Zyro’s Optimization
FTI-Core employs a recalibrated McGinley designed for high-priced, high-volatility assets such as BTC or NAS100.
Ratios are clamped (0.8 – 1.2) to prevent distortion and maintain stability during extreme spikes.
Because it self-adjusts, McGinley effectively acts as a “smart baseline” — a living measure of rhythm between trend and pause.
FTI-Core enhances the formula for high-volatility, high-priced assets (like BTC or NAS100), which can break the standard calculation.
Interpretation
- Price above line → bullish bias
- Price below line → bearish bias
- Slope → volatility expansion / contractionThe result: automatic lag reduction without overreacting to noise.
In short:
Think of it as an EMA (Exponential Moving Average) that breathes with the market — faster when it should, quieter when it must.
- FIBB Cloud — Fibonacci ATR Bands
────────────
Concept
The FIBB Cloud merges two timeless tools:
- Fibonacci ratios (1.618, 2.618, 4.236…) — natural scaling constants in market structure.
- ATR (Average True Range) — a dynamic volatility gauge by J. Welles Wilder Jr. (1978).
By multiplying ATR by Fibonacci ratios and offsetting them from a moving average, FTI-Core builds a volatility envelope that expands and contracts with genuine market energy.
Parameters
- P = price (close)
- N = lookback period (default 20)
- ATR(N) = average true range
- FibRatio = Fibonacci multiplier (2.618, 4.236 …)
FTI-Core plots two upper and two lower layers, forming a living volatility cloud.
Price near the upper band → expansion; near the lower → potential reversal.
FTI-Core plots multiple layers — typically two upper and two lower bands — forming a volatility “cloud.”
In short:
The FIBB Cloud maps volatility like a living field — showing where price breathes, stretches, and resets.
