Relative Vigor Index

This indicator was developed based the January 2002 Stocks and Commodities article entitled Relative Vigor Index. This indicator is an oscillator built on the basic equation (CL - OP) / (HI - LO). The oscillator is basically in phase with the cyclic component of the market prices.
