From Welles Wilder. Any chance of having this added to the SF indicator too kit?

I figure since you gave us the divergence and correlation functions, you might be willing to do this one as well??

Thanks!

Accumulative Swing Index And The McClellan Oscillator
by Investopedia Staff, (Investopedia.com) (Contact Author | Biography)

The accumulation swing index (ASI) is a variation of Welles Wilder's swing index. It plots a running total of the swing index value of each bar. The swing index is a value from 0 to 100 for an up bar and 0 to -100 for a down bar. The swing index is calculated by using the current bar's open, high, low and close, as well as the previous bar's open and close. The swing index is a popular tool in the futures market.

The accumulative swing index is used to gain a better long-term picture than using the plain swing index, which uses data from only two bars. If the long-term trend is up, the accumulative swing index is a positive value. Conversely, if the long-term trend is down, the accumulative swing index is a negative value. If the long-term trend is sideways (non-trending), the accumulative swing index fluctuates between positive and negative values. This indicator is used to analyze futures but can be applied to stocks as well.

ASI will give the technician numerical price swings that are value quantified, and it will show short-term trend turnarounds. Metastock explains it best:

"A breakout is indicated when the accumulative swing index exceeds its value on the day when a previous significant high swing point was made. A downside breakout is indicated when the value of the accumulative swing index drops below its value on a day when a previous significant low swing point was made."

You can confirm trendline breakouts by comparing trendlines on the ASI to trendlines on the price chart. A false breakout is indicated when a trendline drawn on the price chart is penetrated but a similar trendline drawn on the accumulative swing index is not penetrated
