The Fisher Transform is a technical indicator that converts prices into a Gaussian normal distribution. The indicator enables traders to create a nearly Gaussian probability density function by normalizing prices. That is, the transformation makes peak swings relatively rare events and unambiguously identifies price reversals on a chart.
