[ A L P H A X ] RESONANCE - Triple-RSI Stack

AlphaX RESONANCE — RSI Harmonic Engine: Triple-RSI Stack, Adaptive Exhaustion Zones, RSI Coil Release, Pivot Divergence Reversals & Five-Phase Market Classification
AlphaX RESONANCE is a professional-grade momentum and mean-reversion system built on a fundamentally different RSI architecture from any conventional oscillator overlay. Where standard RSI indicators use a single period and static overbought/oversold levels, RESONANCE runs three RSI instances simultaneously — a fast Pulse RSI, a medium Core RSI, and a slow Anchor RSI — each measuring a different temporal dimension of momentum, and combines them into a unified harmonic stack that classifies the current market phase, scores directional conviction, detects RSI bandwidth compression (the RSI equivalent of a volatility coil), and fires precision entry signals across four distinct setup types. The adaptive exhaustion zones replace fixed 70/30 thresholds with percentile-ranked dynamic levels calibrated to the current instrument's own RSI distribution — so the system's definition of "overbought" evolves with actual market behavior rather than staying fixed at an arbitrary number. The result is a system that reads momentum the way it actually behaves — in layers, in phases, and in cycles — rather than as a single oscillating line. Designed for traders across crypto, forex, gold, and indices on any timeframe.
━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━
🎵 The Harmonic Philosophy — Three RSI Periods, One Unified Picture
The core problem with a single-period RSI is temporal ambiguity. A 14-period RSI reading of 65 could mean the market is in a healthy trend with room to run, or a short-term overbought stretch about to snap back — the same number carries completely different meanings depending on whether the underlying trend is strong or weak. A fast RSI alone is noisy and prone to false signals. A slow RSI alone is too lagged to be actionable for entries.
RESONANCE solves this by running all three simultaneously and treating their relationship as the signal — not any single RSI value in isolation.
The three RSI layers:
The harmonic stack:
RESONANCE defines a true harmonic alignment when all three RSI layers are stacked on the same side of the midline with aligned slopes — Pulse above 50, Core above 48, Anchor above 46 (with tolerance buffers to avoid false collapses on minor retracements). When all three are stacked and sloping in the same direction, the market has broad-based momentum conviction across fast, medium, and slow timeframes simultaneously. This triple-stack condition is the backbone of the HARMONIC BREAK setup and is the highest-weight component in the Resonance Score.
━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━
📊 Five-Phase Market Classification — The Harmonic Dashboard
Using the Anchor RSI as the primary reference and the Core RSI slope as a secondary differentiator, RESONANCE classifies the market into one of five phases on every bar. The current phase is displayed prominently on the dashboard as the HARMONIC row and determines which setup types are most appropriate to trade.
MARKUP:
Anchor RSI at or above 58 with a positive slope — the slow momentum layer confirms a sustained upward bias. The macro momentum environment is bullish. This is the primary background condition for HARMONIC BREAK long setups and SNAPBACK long entries that occur as the Pulse RSI dips to the adaptive oversold zone and recovers.
MARKDOWN:
Anchor RSI at or below 42 with a negative slope — macro momentum is bearish. Primary background for HARMONIC BREAK shorts and SNAPBACK short entries.
DISTRIB (Distribution):
Anchor RSI is above 52 (mildly bullish macro) but Core RSI is below the Anchor and its slope is negative — the intermediate momentum layer is diverging downward against the still-elevated Anchor. This is the distribution phase: the long-term bias has not yet shifted, but the medium-term momentum is beginning to roll over. A warning sign for bulls and an early-watch condition for bear setups.
ACCUM (Accumulation):
Anchor RSI is below 48 but Core RSI is above the Anchor and its slope is positive — intermediate momentum is recovering against a still-depressed Anchor. This is the accumulation phase: the macro bias has not yet turned bullish but buying pressure is building. An early-watch condition for bull setups.
COIL:
The RSI bandwidth (highest Core RSI minus lowest Core RSI over the coil lookback) has compressed below the average bandwidth by the configured multiplier. The market is in a momentum squeeze — all three RSI layers are converging toward neutral and the directional energy is compressing. This phase precedes the COIL RELEASE setup and is displayed with a purple tint to distinguish it from the directional phases.
━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━
📐 Adaptive Exhaustion Zones — Dynamic Overbought/Oversold
The standard RSI uses fixed overbought (70) and oversold (30) levels. These thresholds are problematic because every instrument has a different RSI distribution — a strongly trending equity might spend months above 70 and rarely touch 30, while a mean-reverting commodity might hit 70 and snap back immediately. Fixed levels produce the wrong trigger points for most instruments most of the time.
RESONANCE replaces fixed thresholds with adaptive exhaustion zones computed from the Core RSI's own historical percentile distribution:
Dynamic Overbought (dynOb):
The 82nd percentile of Core RSI readings over the adaptive zone lookback period (default: 100 bars). This means the overbought threshold is set at the level that Core RSI has exceeded only 18% of the time historically. When the Pulse RSI crosses above this level and then crosses back below it, the system detects a genuine exhaustion exit — not just a touch of an arbitrary 70 threshold, but an exit from a genuinely extreme reading for this specific instrument at this specific time.
Dynamic Oversold (dynOs):
The 18th percentile of Core RSI readings — the level that Core RSI has been below only 18% of the time. The oversold exit is a Pulse RSI crossover back above this level.
Self-calibrating behavior: During strongly trending markets, the adaptive thresholds shift upward (dynOb moves above 70, dynOs moves above 30) reflecting the fact that RSI stays elevated in trends. During ranging markets, the thresholds move toward 70/30 or tighter. The system always uses the statistically appropriate threshold for the current regime, automatically.
Dashboard display: The current dynamic oversold/overbought pair is displayed live on the dashboard as the ZONES row — e.g., "22 / 78" — updating continuously as new bars accumulate.
━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━
⚡ RSI Coil Engine — Momentum Compression Detection
The RSI Coil Engine translates the volatility compression concept — so central to CATALYST, VECTOR, and PRISM — into the RSI domain. Instead of measuring price volatility compression, it measures RSI bandwidth compression</b>: how much the Core RSI is oscillating relative to its recent average oscillation.
Coil detection:
On every bar, the system computes:
`RSI Bandwidth = Highest Core RSI over coilLen − Lowest Core RSI over coilLen`
This is then compared to the average bandwidth over the same period. When current bandwidth falls below `average × coilMult` (default: 0.72), the Core RSI is oscillating in a significantly tighter range than usual — all three RSI layers are converging. The inCoil boolean activates, the phase displays as COIL, and the dashboard COIL BW row shows "COMPRESSED."
Coil release detection:
A coil release is the transition from compressed (inCoil was true on the prior bar) to decompressed (inCoil is false on the current bar), accompanied by a Pulse RSI move of at least the configured minimum (default: 2.5 RSI points) in a single bar. This rapid Pulse RSI expansion is the momentum equivalent of a volatility breakout — the RSI bandwidth spring is releasing directional energy.
What the RSI coil captures: When all three RSI layers converge toward neutral with declining bandwidth, institutional participants are in a standoff — neither buyers nor sellers are winning the momentum battle. The coil release is the moment that standoff resolves, and the direction of the Pulse RSI's first large move after the release is the signal of who won. The COIL RELEASE setup capitalizes on this first-mover momentum advantage.
━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━
🏷 Four Setup Types — The Resonance Playbook
RESONANCE fires signals through four distinct setup types, each exploiting a different momentum pattern detected by the triple-RSI harmonic system. All four can be enabled simultaneously and the highest-priority qualifying setup is selected for each signal bar.
Setup priority order (when multiple qualify simultaneously):
COIL RELEASE → DIVERGENCE REVERSAL → HARMONIC BREAK → SNAPBACK
━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━
Setup A — SNAPBACK (Adaptive OB/OS Exit)
The mean-reversion setup. Fires when the Pulse RSI exits the adaptive exhaustion zone with Core RSI confirmation.
Long conditions:
Why SNAPBACK is the timing-precision setup: The combination of the adaptive oversold exit (not fixed 30) and Core RSI confirmation means the signal only fires when the oversold reading is genuine by historical standards AND the intermediate momentum has already begun recovering. The Anchor RSI tolerance prevents SNAPBACK longs from firing in deeply bearish macro environments where mean-reversion is likely to fail.
━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━
Setup B — HARMONIC BREAK (50-Line Cascade)
The momentum-continuation setup. Fires when the Pulse RSI crosses the harmonic midline (default: 50) with all three RSI layers stacked in the same direction.
Long conditions:
Why the triple-stack midline cross is significant: A single RSI crossing 50 is noise. When the Pulse RSI crosses 50 simultaneously with Core RSI already above 48 and Anchor RSI above 46 — all three slopes positive — it means the fast, intermediate, and slow momentum layers are all accelerating upward at the same moment. This is genuine broad-based momentum conviction, not a temporary oscillation. The cascade quality reflects institutional commitment across multiple momentum timeframes.
━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━
Setup C — DIVERGENCE REVERSAL (Pivot-Based)
The reversal setup using Core RSI pivot divergence. Fires when price makes a new extreme but Core RSI does not confirm it, within the adaptive exhaustion zone context.
Long divergence conditions:
Divergence recency window:
Divergence is tracked with a live validity window — the divergence remains active for a configurable number of bars (default: divLen × 2). If no confirming rejection candle appears within this window, the divergence expires. This prevents acting on stale divergence signals that occurred many bars ago.
━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━
Setup D — COIL RELEASE (RSI Bandwidth Explosion)
The momentum breakout setup fired by RSI bandwidth decompression. The highest-priority setup in the selection hierarchy.
Long conditions:
Why COIL RELEASE is the highest-priority setup: RSI bandwidth compression is the most reliable pre-breakout indicator within the RSI framework. When all three RSI layers have converged to the same neutral zone and then the bandwidth suddenly expands with a directional Pulse RSI move, the momentum suppression has lifted and the underlying institutional order flow has revealed its direction. This is the RSI equivalent of CATALYST's squeeze release — and like the squeeze release, the first bar of the release carries the highest momentum intensity of the entire move.
━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━
🧠 The Resonance Score — 10-Point Conviction Rating
Every bar, regardless of whether a signal fires, RESONANCE computes a directional conviction score from 0 to 10. This score is displayed live on the dashboard, shown on signal labels when Show Setup Tag is enabled, and used as the minimum gate for all signals — setups below the minimum score threshold (default: 5) are blocked regardless of their setup type conditions.
Score components:
RSI Stack Alignment (up to 2 points):
Full triple-stack (stackBull or stackBear — all three RSIs stacked) scores 2 points. Partial alignment (Pulse and Core both above midline but Anchor lagging) scores 1 point. No alignment scores 0. This is the highest-weight component — genuine triple-stack alignment is rare and carries the most institutional significance.
RSI Slope Agreement (up to 2 points):
All three RSI slopes positive (slopeBull) or all negative (slopeBear) scores 2 points. Pulse and Core slopes aligned (but Anchor flat or lagging) scores 1 point. No slope agreement scores 0. Momentum acceleration across multiple timeframes — not just direction but rate of change — is the key measure of this component.
RSI Hierarchy Alignment (1 point):
For bull: Pulse RSI above Core RSI and Core RSI approximately above Anchor RSI (within 3 points). For bear: Pulse below Core and Core below Anchor within tolerance. This checks that the RSI layers are in the correct relative order — the faster layer leading the slower, which is the natural configuration during genuine trending momentum.
HTF Bias (up to 2 points):
Higher timeframe EMA aligned with the signal direction scores 2 points. When HTF is disabled in settings, 1 neutral point is always awarded. When HTF is enabled and opposes the signal, 0 points.
Volume Expansion (1 point):
Current bar volume meets or exceeds the configured volume threshold.
Non-Chop Market (1 point):
Choppiness Index is below the configured threshold. Also enforced as a hard gate.
EMA Filter (1 point, optional):
Price is on the correct side of the configurable EMA. Off by default.
Grade thresholds:
Signal accent colors: Grade A signals render in the brightest yellow-green (bull) or red (bear). Grade B in slightly dimmer versions. Grade C in transparent-tinted versions. The signal triangle's color communicates quality at a glance without reading the dashboard.
━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━
🎨 Candle Tinting and Phase Background
RESONANCE includes two optional chart coloring systems that provide continuous visual context even between signals.
Candle Tinting (showBarTint):
When enabled (default: on), candles are tinted yellow-green at 78% transparency during stackBull conditions and red at 78% transparency during stackBear conditions. During neutral periods (no full stack), candles retain their default color. This creates a continuous visual momentum ribbon directly on the price chart — you can see at a glance how long a triple-stack condition has been sustained, when it begins, and when it collapses.
Phase Background (showPhaseBg):
When enabled (default: off), a very subtle full-bar background color reflects the current harmonic phase — purple for COIL, faint yellow-green for MARKUP/ACCUM, faint red for MARKDOWN/DISTRIB. Off by default to preserve chart cleanliness, but valuable when studying phase transitions.

A fast RSI alone is noisy and prone to false signals. A slow RSI alone is too lagged to be actionable for entries.
RESONANCE solves this by running all three simultaneously and treating their relationship as the signal — not any single RSI value in isolation.
The three RSI layers:
- Pulse RSI (default: 7 periods) — the fastest layer. Reacts immediately to price movements. Used for timing — detecting the exact bar of a snapback exit from an exhaustion zone, the crossing of the harmonic midline, and the moment a coil releases. The Pulse RSI is the trigger layer
- Core RSI (default: 14 periods) — the standard intermediate layer. Used for divergence detection, slope measurement, and bandwidth compression. The Core RSI is the evidence layer — it confirms that the Pulse RSI signal has structural backing from a wider momentum view
- Anchor RSI (default: 28 periods) — the slowest, most stable layer. Used for market phase classification. When the Anchor RSI is above 58 and rising, the market is in MARKUP. Below 42 and falling, MARKDOWN. The Anchor RSI is the context layer — it tells you the macro momentum environment within which all other signals must be interpreted
The harmonic stack:
RESONANCE defines a true harmonic alignment when all three RSI layers are stacked on the same side of the midline with aligned slopes — Pulse above 50, Core above 48, Anchor above 46 (with tolerance buffers to avoid false collapses on minor retracements). When all three are stacked and sloping in the same direction, the market has broad-based momentum conviction across fast, medium, and slow timeframes simultaneously. This triple-stack condition is the backbone of the HARMONIC BREAK setup and is the highest-weight component in the Resonance Score.

The current phase is displayed prominently on the dashboard as the HARMONIC row and determines which setup types are most appropriate to trade.
MARKUP:
Anchor RSI at or above 58 with a positive slope — the slow momentum layer confirms a sustained upward bias. The macro momentum environment is bullish. This is the primary background condition for HARMONIC BREAK long setups and SNAPBACK long entries that occur as the Pulse RSI dips to the adaptive oversold zone and recovers.
MARKDOWN:
Anchor RSI at or below 42 with a negative slope — macro momentum is bearish. Primary background for HARMONIC BREAK shorts and SNAPBACK short entries.
DISTRIB (Distribution):
Anchor RSI is above 52 (mildly bullish macro) but Core RSI is below the Anchor and its slope is negative — the intermediate momentum layer is diverging downward against the still-elevated Anchor. This is the distribution phase: the long-term bias has not yet shifted, but the medium-term momentum is beginning to roll over. A warning sign for bulls and an early-watch condition for bear setups.
ACCUM (Accumulation):
Anchor RSI is below 48 but Core RSI is above the Anchor and its slope is positive — intermediate momentum is recovering against a still-depressed Anchor. This is the accumulation phase: the macro bias has not yet turned bullish but buying pressure is building. An early-watch condition for bull setups.
COIL:
The RSI bandwidth (highest Core RSI minus lowest Core RSI over the coil lookback) has compressed below the average bandwidth by the configured multiplier. The market is in a momentum squeeze — all three RSI layers are converging toward neutral and the directional energy is compressing. This phase precedes the COIL RELEASE setup and is displayed with a purple tint to distinguish it from the directional phases.
━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━
📐 Adaptive Exhaustion Zones — Dynamic Overbought/Oversold
The standard RSI uses fixed overbought (70) and oversold (30) levels. These thresholds are problematic because every instrument has a different RSI distribution — a strongly trending equity might spend months above 70 and rarely touch 30, while a mean-reverting commodity might hit 70 and snap back immediately. Fixed levels produce the wrong trigger points for most instruments most of the time.
RESONANCE replaces fixed thresholds with adaptive exhaustion zones computed from the Core RSI's own historical percentile distribution:
Dynamic Overbought (dynOb):
The 82nd percentile of Core RSI readings over the adaptive zone lookback period (default: 100 bars). This means the overbought threshold is set at the level that Core RSI has exceeded only 18% of the time historically. When the Pulse RSI crosses above this level and then crosses back below it, the system detects a genuine exhaustion exit — not just a touch of an arbitrary 70 threshold, but an exit from a genuinely extreme reading for this specific instrument at this specific time.
Dynamic Oversold (dynOs):
The 18th percentile of Core RSI readings — the level that Core RSI has been below only 18% of the time. The oversold exit is a Pulse RSI crossover back above this level.
Self-calibrating behavior: During strongly trending markets, the adaptive thresholds shift upward (dynOb moves above 70, dynOs moves above 30) reflecting the fact that RSI stays elevated in trends. During ranging markets, the thresholds move toward 70/30 or tighter. The system always uses the statistically appropriate threshold for the current regime, automatically.
Dashboard display: The current dynamic oversold/overbought pair is displayed live on the dashboard as the ZONES row — e.g., "22 / 78" — updating continuously as new bars accumulate.

━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━
🏷 Four Setup Types — The Resonance Playbook
RESONANCE fires signals through four distinct setup types, each exploiting a different momentum pattern detected by the triple-RSI harmonic system. All four can be enabled simultaneously and the highest-priority qualifying setup is selected for each signal bar.
Setup priority order (when multiple qualify simultaneously):
COIL RELEASE → DIVERGENCE REVERSAL → HARMONIC BREAK → SNAPBACK
━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━
Setup A — SNAPBACK (Adaptive OB/OS Exit)
The mean-reversion setup. Fires when the Pulse RSI exits the adaptive exhaustion zone with Core RSI confirmation.
Long conditions:
- Pulse RSI crosses above the dynamic oversold level (dynOs) — exiting the adaptive oversold zone
- Core RSI is rising on the current bar (rsiCore > rsiCore[1]) — intermediate momentum is recovering
- Anchor RSI is within 8 points of the midline on the bullish side (anchor > midLine − 8) — the macro context is not severely bearish
- A bullish rejection candle is present (close above open, close above prior close)
Why SNAPBACK is the timing-precision setup: The combination of the adaptive oversold exit (not fixed 30) and Core RSI confirmation means the signal only fires when the oversold reading is genuine by historical standards AND the intermediate momentum has already begun recovering. The Anchor RSI tolerance prevents SNAPBACK longs from firing in deeply bearish macro environments where mean-reversion is likely to fail.
━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━
Setup B — HARMONIC BREAK (50-Line Cascade)
The momentum-continuation setup. Fires when the Pulse RSI crosses the harmonic midline (default: 50) with all three RSI layers stacked in the same direction.
Long conditions:
- Pulse RSI crosses above the harmonic midline from below
- stackBull is true — all three RSIs are above their respective midline thresholds (Pulse > 50, Core > 48, Anchor > 46)
- slopeBull is true — all three RSI slopes over 3 bars are positive (Pulse slope > 0, Core slope > 0, Anchor slope ≥ 0)
Why the triple-stack midline cross is significant: A single RSI crossing 50 is noise. When the Pulse RSI crosses 50 simultaneously with Core RSI already above 48 and Anchor RSI above 46 — all three slopes positive — it means the fast, intermediate, and slow momentum layers are all accelerating upward at the same moment. This is genuine broad-based momentum conviction, not a temporary oscillation. The cascade quality reflects institutional commitment across multiple momentum timeframes.
━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━
Setup C — DIVERGENCE REVERSAL (Pivot-Based)
The reversal setup using Core RSI pivot divergence. Fires when price makes a new extreme but Core RSI does not confirm it, within the adaptive exhaustion zone context.
Long divergence conditions:
- A confirmed price pivot low is below the prior confirmed pivot low — price is making a lower low
- The Core RSI at the same pivot low bar is above the Core RSI at the prior pivot low — momentum is making a higher low despite price's lower low
- Core RSI at the divergence low is within 8 points of the dynamic oversold level — the divergence is occurring in a genuinely oversold context, not at neutral RSI
- A bullish rejection candle confirms on or after the divergence bar
- Pulse RSI is rising on the current bar
- Current close is above the divergence low — price has recovered off the pivot
Divergence recency window:
Divergence is tracked with a live validity window — the divergence remains active for a configurable number of bars (default: divLen × 2). If no confirming rejection candle appears within this window, the divergence expires. This prevents acting on stale divergence signals that occurred many bars ago.
━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━
Setup D — COIL RELEASE (RSI Bandwidth Explosion)
The momentum breakout setup fired by RSI bandwidth decompression. The highest-priority setup in the selection hierarchy.
Long conditions:
- coilRelease is true — the Core RSI was compressed on the prior bar and the bandwidth expanded this bar with a minimum Pulse RSI move
- Pulse RSI is above the dynamic oversold level — the release is occurring on the bullish side of the exhaustion zone
- slopeBull is true — all three RSI slopes are positive, confirming the release is directionally bullish
- A bullish candle is present (close above open)
Why COIL RELEASE is the highest-priority setup: RSI bandwidth compression is the most reliable pre-breakout indicator within the RSI framework. When all three RSI layers have converged to the same neutral zone and then the bandwidth suddenly expands with a directional Pulse RSI move, the momentum suppression has lifted and the underlying institutional order flow has revealed its direction. This is the RSI equivalent of CATALYST's squeeze release — and like the squeeze release, the first bar of the release carries the highest momentum intensity of the entire move.
━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━
🧠 The Resonance Score — 10-Point Conviction Rating
Every bar, regardless of whether a signal fires, RESONANCE computes a directional conviction score from 0 to 10. This score is displayed live on the dashboard, shown on signal labels when Show Setup Tag is enabled, and used as the minimum gate for all signals — setups below the minimum score threshold (default: 5) are blocked regardless of their setup type conditions.
Score components:
RSI Stack Alignment (up to 2 points):
Full triple-stack (stackBull or stackBear — all three RSIs stacked) scores 2 points. Partial alignment (Pulse and Core both above midline but Anchor lagging) scores 1 point. No alignment scores 0. This is the highest-weight component — genuine triple-stack alignment is rare and carries the most institutional significance.
RSI Slope Agreement (up to 2 points):
All three RSI slopes positive (slopeBull) or all negative (slopeBear) scores 2 points. Pulse and Core slopes aligned (but Anchor flat or lagging) scores 1 point. No slope agreement scores 0. Momentum acceleration across multiple timeframes — not just direction but rate of change — is the key measure of this component.
RSI Hierarchy Alignment (1 point):
For bull: Pulse RSI above Core RSI and Core RSI approximately above Anchor RSI (within 3 points). For bear: Pulse below Core and Core below Anchor within tolerance. This checks that the RSI layers are in the correct relative order — the faster layer leading the slower, which is the natural configuration during genuine trending momentum.
HTF Bias (up to 2 points):
Higher timeframe EMA aligned with the signal direction scores 2 points. When HTF is disabled in settings, 1 neutral point is always awarded. When HTF is enabled and opposes the signal, 0 points.
Volume Expansion (1 point):
Current bar volume meets or exceeds the configured volume threshold.
Non-Chop Market (1 point):
Choppiness Index is below the configured threshold. Also enforced as a hard gate.
EMA Filter (1 point, optional):
Price is on the correct side of the configurable EMA. Off by default.
Grade thresholds:
- A (8–10) — elite resonance. Triple-stack, slope agreement, HTF aligned, volume confirmed. The highest-conviction signal the system produces
- B (6–7) — strong resonance. Most components confirmed
- C (minimum to 5) — acceptable resonance. Passes the gate with partial confirmation
Signal accent colors: Grade A signals render in the brightest yellow-green (bull) or red (bear). Grade B in slightly dimmer versions. Grade C in transparent-tinted versions. The signal triangle's color communicates quality at a glance without reading the dashboard.
━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━
🎨 Candle Tinting and Phase Background
RESONANCE includes two optional chart coloring systems that provide continuous visual context even between signals.
Candle Tinting (showBarTint):
When enabled (default: on), candles are tinted yellow-green at 78% transparency during stackBull conditions and red at 78% transparency during stackBear conditions. During neutral periods (no full stack), candles retain their default color. This creates a continuous visual momentum ribbon directly on the price chart — you can see at a glance how long a triple-stack condition has been sustained, when it begins, and when it collapses.
Phase Background (showPhaseBg):
When enabled (default: off), a very subtle full-bar background color reflects the current harmonic phase — purple for COIL, faint yellow-green for MARKUP/ACCUM, faint red for MARKDOWN/DISTRIB. Off by default to preserve chart cleanliness, but valuable when studying phase transitions.

COIL RELEASE and DIVERGENCE signals render in purple and orange accents respectively to distinguish them visually from SNAPBACK and HARMONIC signals
- ▼ Triangle (above bar) — bear entry signal with matching grade-based coloring
- Setup Tag Label (optional) — when Show Setup Tag is enabled, a small label appears below (bull) or above (bear) the signal showing the setup abbreviation and grade (e.g., "COIL REL A"). Off by default for chart cleanliness
- Candle Tinting — yellow-green at 78% transparency during stackBull, red during stackBear. Continuous momentum ribbon effect on the price chart
- Phase Background (optional, off by default) — subtle full-bar tint for COIL (purple), MARKUP/ACCUM (faint yellow-green), MARKDOWN/DISTRIB (faint red)
- Entry Line (dashed) — the entry close level, extending guideExtend bars forward when Show SL + TP1 + TP2 is enabled
- SL Line (red dashed) — ATR-based stop loss level, extending forward
- TP1 Line (lime dotted) — first take profit at 1.8× ATR from entry
- TP2 Line (bright yellow-green dashed, width 2) — second take profit at 3.2× ATR from entry

🚀 How to Trade with AlphaX RESONANCE — Step by Step
Step 1 — Read the Phase and Stack
- Check the HARMONIC row on the dashboard. MARKUP or MARKDOWN with a confirmed triple-stack (candles tinted yellow-green or red) is the ideal background condition for HARMONIC BREAK and SNAPBACK entries
- Check COIL BW — COMPRESSED means RSI bandwidth is in squeeze mode. Prepare for a COIL RELEASE signal on the upcoming bars
- Check ZONES — how far is current price/RSI from the adaptive exhaustion levels? When the CORE RSI is approaching or inside the dynamic zone, a SNAPBACK is potentially developing
- Check RESONANCE score. If it is already at or above the minimum before a signal fires, the conditions are favorable. Watch for the triggering setup condition to develop
Step 2 — Identify the Setup Developing
- SETUP shows ARM LONG or ARM SHORT when a setup condition is partially met but the full signal has not fired. This is your preparation window — note the entry price, calculate SL and TP positions
- COIL BW showing COMPRESSED → watch for the next bar's release. If SETUP shows ARM LONG during a coil, a COIL RELEASE long may fire on the next expansion bar
- HARMONIC row switching from ACCUM to MARKUP → the Anchor RSI has crossed 58 and is rising. HARMONIC BREAK long conditions may soon be met as the Pulse RSI approaches the midline from below
Step 3 — Enter on the Triangle Signal
- A triangle signal with Grade A coloring (brightest yellow-green or red) is the highest-conviction entry. Enter on the close of the signal bar or the next bar's open
- Check which setup fired on the dashboard SETUP row. COIL REL [A] is the premium setup. DIV REV [B] is a high-quality reversal. HARMONIC [A] is a premium continuation. SNAPBACK [C] at minimum score warrants reduced size
- Enable Show SL + TP1 + TP2 to see the ATR-based guide levels projected forward from the signal bar
Step 4 — Manage with RSI Context
- During a long trade, monitor the PULSE RSI value. When it approaches the dynamic overbought zone (dynOb), partial profit at TP1 becomes prudent — momentum may be approaching exhaustion
- If the phase transitions from MARKUP to DISTRIB during an open long trade (Anchor RSI still high but Core RSI rolling over), tighten the stop
- If the candle tint disappears (triple-stack collapses), the momentum conviction has weakened — move stop to breakeven or take profit
━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━
⚠ Identifying Low-Quality Conditions — When Not to Trade
Stand aside when:
- CHOP is orange on the dashboard — the hard gate is active. Extreme chop blocks all signals. RSI oscillates rapidly in choppy conditions and the triple-stack alignments are transient rather than structural
- Phase shows NEUTRAL — none of the five phase conditions have been met. The Anchor RSI is in the middle zone (48–52) without a clear slope. Momentum conviction is absent at the macro level
- RESONANCE score is exactly at minimum (5/10) — marginal confluence. In neutral or transitional market conditions, minimum-score signals fail at a significantly higher rate. Require 6+ before committing full size
- COIL BW is COMPRESSED but no directional RSI slope is present — a coil without slope agreement means RSI has converged but without directional bias. The COIL RELEASE signal requires slopeBull or slopeBear to fire, but if the slopes are flat during the coil, the release direction is unpredictable — wait for a slope to develop before sizing up
- HTF Bias opposes the stack direction — a bull triple-stack against a bearish HTF is a counter-trend momentum entry. These work but carry higher reversal risk. Reduce position size or require a Grade A score
- SETUP shows ARM LONG but Anchor RSI is in severely bearish territory (below 35) — approaching a SNAPBACK long trigger against a deeply bearish Anchor is a mean-reversion trade against significant macro momentum. The Anchor RSI tolerance condition blocks the signal below midLine − 8, but values near that boundary are still high-risk
The ideal RESONANCE setup:
- Phase MARKUP (bull) or MARKDOWN (bear) sustained for 5+ bars
- Full triple-stack with positive slopes on all three RSIs
- COIL BW just releasing from COMPRESSED state (COIL RELEASE setup) OR Pulse RSI crossing the midline with stack and slope confirmed (HARMONIC BREAK)
- HTF aligned with stack direction
- Volume above average on the signal bar
- RESONANCE score at 8–10 (Grade A)
- Chop Index well below threshold

🎯 Recommended Settings by Instrument & Timeframe
The default configuration is optimized for XAUUSD, major forex pairs, and crypto on M5–H1:
- Triple RSI at 7/14/28 — the 2× doubling ratio creates clean harmonic separation between the three layers. Each layer is exactly twice as slow as the prior one, producing independent but harmonically related readings
- Adaptive zone lookback at 100 bars — approximately 8 hours on M5, sufficient to calibrate the percentile distribution to current intraday volatility conditions
- Coil multiplier at 0.72 — requires RSI bandwidth to fall below 72% of its average to declare compression. Tight enough to catch genuine coils without excessive false compressions
- Resonance minimum at 5 — balanced between frequency and quality. Raise to 6–7 for higher conviction filtering
For other instruments or timeframes, adjust:
- M1–M3 scalping — reduce RSI periods to 5/9/18, reduce Adaptive Zone Lookback to 60, reduce Cooldown to 3, reduce Guide Extend to 15, reduce Coil Release Min to 1.5
- H4–Daily swing trading — increase RSI periods to 9/21/42, increase Zone Lookback to 200, increase TP2 to 5.0× ATR, raise Min Resonance to 6
- Crypto (BTC, ETH) — increase Adaptive Zone Percentile High to 85 and Low to 15 for the wider RSI distribution of crypto. Increase Coil Release Min to 3.0 for the larger single-bar RSI moves
- Indices (NAS100, US30) — use EMA Price Filter with a 50-period EMA, increase Min Resonance to 6, restrict via session filter to cash market hours
- More signals — lower Min Resonance to 4, reduce Cooldown to 3, enable all four setups, widen adaptive zone percentiles (75/25)
- Ultra-selective only — raise Min Resonance to 7–8, enable Hard HTF Alignment, enable EMA Price Filter, require Grade A minimum (increase minResonance to 8), disable SNAPBACK
━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━
👥 Who This Is For
- 📊 Momentum and RSI traders who want more than a single oscillator — RESONANCE is the definitive multi-period RSI implementation in the AlphaX suite. Three periods, five phases, four setups, and a 10-point scoring system replace the single-line RSI with a complete momentum intelligence framework
- 🎵 Traders who understand that momentum has layers — the 7/14/28 harmonic stack separates fast momentum (entry timing), intermediate momentum (structural backing), and slow momentum (macro context) into three distinct readings that must align before the highest-quality signals fire
- 📐 Traders who struggle with fixed RSI overbought/oversold levels — the adaptive exhaustion zones calibrate to the actual RSI distribution of the current instrument at the current time, producing thresholds that are statistically meaningful rather than arbitrary
- ⚡ Volatility coil traders who want the RSI-domain equivalent — the RSI Coil Engine applies the compression-and-release concept from CATALYST to the momentum domain, detecting RSI bandwidth squeezes that precede explosive directional moves
- 🔀 Mean-reversion and trend-following traders simultaneously — SNAPBACK entries are mean-reversion (adaptive OB/OS exits). HARMONIC BREAK entries are trend continuation (triple-stack midline). Both are available within the same system, automatically selected based on which fires first
- 🥇 Gold and forex intraday traders — the 7/14/28 RSI stack with adaptive zones is particularly effective on XAUUSD and major forex pairs where the RSI distribution shifts significantly between trending and ranging sessions
━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━
📝 Notes
- All signals are confirmed on bar close — the indicator is non-repainting by design. All RSI computations, stack alignments, divergence detections, and confluence scoring finalize on confirmed bars
- The adaptive exhaustion zones require the full Adaptive Zone Lookback period to calibrate. On charts with fewer bars than the lookback setting, the dynamic thresholds may not reflect accurate percentile distributions. Allow at least the full lookback period (default: 100 bars) to accumulate before treating the SNAPBACK setup as fully calibrated
- The RSI Coil Engine's bandwidth average also requires the Coil Lookback period to stabilize. On fresh chart loads, the COMPRESSED state may trigger briefly before the average has fully computed — this resolves naturally within the coil lookback period
- The divergence validity window (divLen × 2 bars after detection) means divergence signals can fire up to 10 bars (default divLen 5 × 2) after the actual pivot low or high. The confirming candle requirement prevents stale divergences from generating signals without fresh price confirmation
- The candle tinting applies the stackBull/stackBear condition which uses a ±2 to ±4 tolerance buffer around the midline for Core and Anchor RSIs. This prevents the tinting from flickering on and off as Core or Anchor RSIs oscillate near the midline. The tint represents sustained broad stack alignment, not momentary
- Guide lines (SL, TP1, TP2) are only drawn on the last bar and are redrawn whenever a new signal fires. They reflect the most recent active trade plan
- The indicator does not track open positions or P&L and does not connect to any broker or account
