HurstExponentLibrary "HurstExponent"
Library to calculate Hurst Exponent refactored from Hurst Exponent - Detrended Fluctuation Analysis
demean(src) Calculates a series subtracted from the series mean.
Parameters:
src : The series used to calculate the difference from the mean (e.g. log returns).
Returns: The series subtracted from the series mean
cumsum(src, length) Calculates a cumulated sum from the series.
Parameters:
src : The series used to calculate the cumulative sum (e.g. demeaned log returns).
length : The length used to calculate the cumulative sum (e.g. 100).
Returns: The cumulative sum of the series as an array
aproximateLogScale(scale, length) Calculates an aproximated log scale. Used to save sample size
Parameters:
scale : The scale to aproximate.
length : The length used to aproximate the expected scale.
Returns: The aproximated log scale of the value
rootMeanSum(cumulativeSum, barId, numberOfSegments) Calculates linear trend to determine error between linear trend and cumulative sum
Parameters:
cumulativeSum : The cumulative sum array to regress.
barId : The barId for the slice
numberOfSegments : The total number of segments used for the regression calculation
Returns: The error between linear trend and cumulative sum
averageRootMeanSum(cumulativeSum, barId, length) Calculates the Root Mean Sum Measured for each block (e.g the aproximated log scale)
Parameters:
cumulativeSum : The cumulative sum array to regress and determine the average of.
barId : The barId for the slice
length : The length used for finding the average
Returns: The average root mean sum error of the cumulativeSum
criticalValues(length) Calculates the critical values for a hurst exponent for a given length
Parameters:
length : The length used for finding the average
Returns: The critical value, upper critical value and lower critical value for a hurst exponent
slope(cumulativeSum, length) Calculates the hurst exponent slope measured from root mean sum, scaled to log log plot using linear regression
Parameters:
cumulativeSum : The cumulative sum array to regress and determine the average of.
length : The length used for the hurst exponent sample size
Returns: The slope of the hurst exponent
smooth(src, length) Smooths input using advanced linear regression
Parameters:
src : The series to smooth (e.g. hurst exponent slope)
length : The length used to smooth
Returns: The src smoothed according to the given length
exponent(src, hurstLength) Wrapper function to calculate the hurst exponent slope
Parameters:
src : The series used for returns calculation (e.g. close)
hurstLength : The length used to calculate the hurst exponent (should be greater than 50)
Returns: The src smoothed according to the given length
