Settings

This indicator has a wide surface. The goal of this page is not to make you memorize every input. The goal is to help you make changes in an order that keeps the chart understandable.

Start with the controls that decide whether a slot is present, what context it is reading, and whether that context is settled. Only then move into smoothing families and advanced parameters.

A settings surface this wide can either help you build something you actually understand or bury you in busywork. If the pane starts feeling smarter than you can explain, the right answer is usually not another setting. It is a smaller stack and a clearer reason for the next change.

How to use this page without getting buried

Read the settings in three passes:

Start with these settings first

If you are new to the tool, focus on these controls before anything else:

• Enable RSI 01-10
• Hide RSI 01 Plot through Hide RSI 10 Plot
• TimeFrame:
• Optional Ticker:
• RSI Length:
• RSI Smoothing:
• Signal Length:
• Blended Weight:
• On Bar Close?
• Plot Blended RSI/Signal
• Enable Master Smoothing

Those settings shape most of what the tool feels like in live use.

Four settings people confuse most often

Enable RSI NN

This decides whether the slot calculates at all.

Use it when:

• you want the slot active
• you want the slot to participate in slot alerts
• you want the slot eligible for alignment logic
• you want the slot available for the blend if it also has a positive weight

Hide RSI NN Plot

This changes visibility only.

Use it when:

• you want the slot logic active but do not want the line on-screen
• you are keeping a diagnostic slot in the background
• you want a slot to continue affecting logic while reducing clutter

Do not use it when you actually want the slot gone. Hidden is still active.

Blended Weight:

This decides how much a slot influences the blended summary.

Use it when:

• you want one slot to matter more or less inside the blend
• you want a slot available for local reading or alerts without letting it shape the summary

Weight 0 removes the slot from the blended math. It does not disable the slot.

On Bar Close?

This decides whether that slot uses settled requested-context values or still-forming requested-context values.

Use it when:

• you want a steadier higher-timeframe read that is easier to compare with history
• you want to test how earlier, still-forming slot behavior changes the feel of the stack

This is a trust-setting, not a style-setting.

Settings by decision role

1. Slot participation and visibility

These controls answer: which slots exist, and which ones do you want to see?

2. Slot context

These controls answer: what series is this slot reading, and where is it reading it from?

Important notes:

• A blank TimeFrame: inherits the chart timeframe.
• An enabled slot timeframe must stay at or above the chart timeframe.
• Optional Ticker: changes only that slot. It does not change the whole stack.

What to verify after changing slot context:

• change only one slot's TimeFrame: or Optional Ticker:
• confirm that slot changes while the rest of the stack stays controlled
• if the chart errors, fix legality before you try to interpret the pane again

3. Raw RSI and visible slot RSI construction

These controls answer: how quickly does the slot react, and how calm does the visible slot line become?

Start by changing RSI Length: or RSI Smoothing: before you start menu-hopping across many MA families.

What to verify after changing slot RSI construction:

• change one slot only
• compare how quickly that slot leaves and returns toward the midpoint relative to the unchanged slots
• make sure you can still explain the slot's job after the change, not only that the line now looks different

4. Internal signal construction

These controls answer: how is slot state being measured behind the scenes?

The visible slot line is RSI-derived. The slot signal line stays internal, but it still governs slot color, slot bullish or bearish state, and slot flip alerts.

What to verify after changing signal construction:

• watch how often slot color and slot flip behavior change before and after the adjustment
• keep the slot visible while you test so you do not end up tuning a hidden relationship you never inspected

5. Timing

These controls answer: is this slot using settled requested-context information or a still-forming read?

Keep all active slots on the same timing posture until you can explain the difference from observation, not theory.

What to verify after changing timing:

• duplicate one higher-timeframe slot when possible
• keep one version confirmed and one live-forming
• watch them through replay or a still-open requested bar before you decide the earlier read is worth the weaker trust boundary

6. Blend influence and display

These controls answer: how should the summary behave, and how visible should it be?

If every enabled slot has weight 0, the blended summary becomes unavailable. Treat that as a setup choice, not as market information.

What to verify after changing blend behavior:

• set one slot to 0 weight and confirm the blend recalculates without that slot
• check whether alignment still includes the slot if it remains enabled
• if you hide a positively weighted slot, confirm you still know it is shaping the summary

7. Master smoothing

These controls answer: should the blended summary get one more calming pass after it is built?

Turn this on only after you understand the unsmoothed blend.

What to verify after changing master smoothing:

• toggle it on and off while leaving the slot stack unchanged
• compare midpoint shifts, regime changes, or threshold crosses before deciding the calmer summary is actually more useful

Advanced MA-family controls

This pro build exposes 21 smoothing families across slot RSI smoothing, slot signal smoothing, and master smoothing:

• SMA
• EMA
• RMA
• WMA
• VWMA
• HMA
• ALMA
• SWMA
• DEMA
• TEMA
• TRIMA
• LSMA
• KAMA
• JMA
• FRAMA
• T3MA
• VAMA
• ZLMA
• ZLEMA
• LAGUERRE
• MCGINLEY

Treat that menu as a response-shape menu, not as a ladder from simple to elite.

Extra controls that only matter for some families

The following controls matter only when you choose families that use them:

• ALMA Floor Offset?
• ALMA Offset
• ALMA Sigma
• KAMA/FRAMA Fast
• KAMA/FRAMA Slow
• Jurik Phase
• Jurik Power
• Laguerre Alpha
• VAMA Vol Length

If you are using a family that ignores one of those controls, moving that control will not improve the output. This is a common source of busywork.

Verification reminder:

• switch one MA family at a time
• leave the rest of the slot unchanged
• if you cannot describe the response-shape difference afterward, undo the change and move on

A safe tuning order

When you do start changing settings, use this order:

1. confirm the active slots are valid on the current chart
2. decide whether each active slot has a clear job
3. change timeframe or source
4. change timing posture only when you are ready to compare confirmed versus live-forming behavior
5. change RSI length or smoothing amount
6. change signal behavior
7. change weights
8. add master smoothing
9. explore alternate MA families and their advanced parameters

That order keeps you closer to cause and effect.

Three quick examples

I want less clutter, but I still want a slot active

Use Hide RSI NN Plot.

Do not disable the slot if you still want its alerts, alignment contribution, or blend influence.

I want to watch a slot without letting it shape the blend

Leave the slot enabled and set Blended Weight: to 0.

That keeps the slot available for slot reading and slot alerts, but it removes it from the blended summary.

I want a calmer summary, not calmer slot lines

Leave the slots alone and test Enable Master Smoothing with a short Master Length.

Then compare the smoothed and unsmoothed blend before you decide the calmer version is actually better for your workflow.

Good habits while tuning

• Change one family of settings at a time.
• Verify each change on the chart before stacking another change on top of it.
• Keep notes on what each active slot is meant to do.
• Disable unused slots instead of leaving them active out of habit.
• Treat another symbol as a deliberate context choice, not a confidence boost.

When to stop changing settings and simplify

Stop and reduce the stack if any of these become true:

• you can describe the new look, but not the reason it changed
• you no longer know which slots are shaping the blend
• you changed timing, weighting, and smoothing in the same session and lost cause and effect
• you are browsing MA families because the chart feels uncertain, not because you identified a specific workflow problem

Where to go next

Visuals and Logic: learn how the visible lines and hidden signal logic work together

MTF and Repainting: verify the timing model before mixing trust postures

Workflows: see how to assign actual jobs to slots instead of collecting settings

Visual placeholder: Settings capture with one active slot expanded, that slot's power-user timing block visible, and the master smoothing section open so the three control layers are easy to distinguish.
