Traders' Tip text
Once again, Mr. Ehlers shares an universal oscillator with features like minimum lag and a single input parameter that lets it highlight cycle, momentum, and trend components.

TASCIndicators library to v2017.08 or later, the ReverseEMA indicator can be found under the TASC Magazine Indicators group. You can plot it on a chart or use it as an entry or exit condition in a Rule-based Strategy without having to program a line of code yourself.
