.calculate(data, low_period: 13, high_period: 25, price_key: :value) ⇒ Array<TsiValue>

Calculates the true strength index (TSI) for the data over the given period en.wikipedia.org/wiki/True_strength_index

Parameters:

  • data (Array)

    Array of hashes with keys (:date_time, :value)

  • high_period (Integer) (defaults to: 25)

    The given high period to calculate the EMA

  • low_period (Integer) (defaults to: 13)

    The given low period to calculate the EMA

  • price_key (Symbol) (defaults to: :value)

    The hash key for the price data. Default :value

Returns:

  • (Array<TsiValue>)

    An array of TsiValue instances
