Trend indicator using peaks

[Stephen Trading]

Hey,

I'm building a divergence trading strategy and need some help with what trend indicators/codes I can use to analyse the peaks.

Here is an example of what I want:

I would like an indicator/code that analyses changes in the peaks (green circles) rather than any point on the RSI (like with the red circle).

Here is my current code:

A couple of smaller things that would like help with is:
1) Any way to reduce the sensitivity of the RSI, it can change a lot from even small adjustments in price

Any help would be greatly appreciated.

Hello Stephen Trading,

Thank you for your note.

While we in the support department can't offer advice for specific indicators to use within your strategy or settings for those indicators as that may be considered trading advice and be a compliance issue, I will leave this thread open in case any of our users here on the forums have any particular indicators or RSI settings they recommend.

Please let us know if we may be of further assistance to you.

There's an app...err, indicator for that: It's called 'Swing'.

Apply it to the RSI and it will find the peaks, and valleys. The default period of 5 seems to work pretty well.

private Swing SwingRSI = Swing(RSI(20, 3), 5);

And reference the current swing high like this:
