EMA Curl Strength+

EMA Curl Strength+
Description:
This indicator provides a statistically normalized view of EMA slope momentum using Z-score transformation. By evaluating the rate of change of an EMA and comparing it against its historical behavior, the script highlights momentum shifts in a dynamic, adaptive way.
⸻
How It Works:
• Calculates the slope (percentage change) of a chosen EMA.
• Normalizes the slope using Z-score over a custom lookback period.
• Smooths the resulting signal and computes two signal lines for comparison.
• Assigns dynamic colors based on user-defined Z-score thresholds for mild, moderate, and strong momentum in both directions.
⸻
Visual Features:
• Gradient fill between the Z Curl Line and Signal 1 to highlight slope acceleration.
• Histogram showing the difference between the Z Curl Line and its signal.
• Optional signal crossover shapes between configurable pairs (e.g., Z Curl vs. Signal).
• Background highlights when the Z Curl Line exceeds ±2, indicating strong trending behavior.
⸻
Customization:
• Adjustable EMA length, smoothing lengths, signal lengths, histogram smoothing, and Z-score lookback.
• Separate color controls for:
• Z-score strength bands (mild/moderate/strong up/down)
• Histogram bars
• Signal lines
• Background highlight zones
• Crossover shapes
⸻
Use Cases:
• Momentum Confirmation: Confirm strength when Z Curl exceeds ±2 with matching background highlights.
• Trend Entry Timing: Look for trades when Z Curl crosses above or below the 0-line.
• Scalping: Capture quick directional moves when momentum accelerates.
• Trend Following: Use strong Z Curl values to confirm trade direction and filter sideways action.
• Divergence Detection: Spot divergences between price and Z Curl movement to anticipate reversals.
