Chuck,
 
 good work... significant improvement in 
performance.
 
I am testing by using a direct ling to Hilbert 
Period (ex: Stoc = StochK(HilbertPeriod * x)) .. will post results when 
done

  <FONT face=Arial color=#0000ff

  This

  version of the Hilbert Cycle finder, I ended up by saying something like 
  this:
  <FONT face=Arial color=#0000ff

      <FONT face=Arial 
  color=#0000ff size=2>lookback = IIF(HilbertPeriod() > 30, 12, 
  8)
  <FONT face=Arial color=#0000ff 
  size=2> 
  <FONT face=Arial color=#0000ff 
  size=2>These values (30,12,8) were all optimised, but made logical sense to me 
  and actually were my initial defaults.

    Anthony,
     
    That's correct. Just something that i was working with. 
    Smoothperiod is the resulting output from the Hilbert cycle period, and the 
    input for the RSI.
     
    Try plotting this and adjust "RSI Lookback".

      Corey,
       
      Thank you for sharing....
       
      I notice at the bottom of the formula....you 
      have a Param() for RSI lookback Divisor....since it is not assigned, I do 
      not believe it serves any purpose at this time...is this correct 
      ?

        Anthony,
         
        Here (attachment and below) is an example of RSI 
        driven by Hilbert cycle periods. As you can tell, I'm not done with this 
        formula either.
         
        Note that the Hilbert transform part of the cycle 
        period formula is different. I have found that over time Ehlers has made 
        different versions. I collect them like beer bottles and test them for 
        accuracy and response... like beer.

          How do you use this formula with other 
          indicators....could you give us an example.....
           
          Thank you

            Chuck,
             
            One of the things that I was working on is an 
            improved "smoother" (Smoother2) for the input data to the Hilbert 
            transform (TASC v18:11) rather that Ehlers smoother (Smoother1). As 
            you can see I was trying out Tillson's T3 smoother, and "Periods2" 
            is just the amount of periods of smoothing that T3 is using. 
            "Smoother2" is the T3 output for use in the rest of the formula. "a" 
            is simply the "Hot" input parameter for use in T3. Note that I am 
            using TEMA and not EMA as the original T3 suggests. (BTW, I tripped 
            over a TASC V19:6 article by Steve Burns that describes an adaptive 
            T3 to boot.)
             
            Yes, I undestand that the formula should be able 
            to accurately find cycles down to a period of 6 days but using 
            a quick and dirty test using a synthetic waveform (Sine Wave Test in 
            the formula), I found odd fluctuations in cycle period output below 
            9 days. I am still working on a resolution for it.
             
            Smoother1 is the native smoother from Ehlers 
            original formula. Smoother2 is my replacement of it by 
            T3.
             
            The formula that I sent for Ara is just one of 
            many rough test examples, not yet ready for prime time. Ara and 
            everyone are free to twist and tweak it as they please. When I 
            am confident of the accuracy of its output (and the accuracy of my 
            translation and AFL coding), I would be happy to share.
             
            Below is the EasyLanguage (Ha!) formula I derived 
            from.

              and "a"?   I see you have them as Param statements, but 
              can you recommend defaults.   If I do understand what 
              you are doing with Periods2, your default of "5" seems a bit 
              low.   Espeicially in light of your comment about 
              "Periods < 9 are NOT reliable".   Or is that 
              referring to some other variable?
