Velocity + Momentum (SMA-Based)
Velocity + Momentum (SMA-Based) is a clean, powerful oscillator that measures price acceleration using SMA-derived velocity and dual momentum signals. This tool is ideal for identifying directional shifts, exhaustion points, and early entries across any market or timeframe.
How It Works:
This indicator calculates velocity as the distance between the current close and a simple moving average of the open price. Then, it applies two smoothed moving averages to this velocity line:
• Internal Momentum (shorter-term smoothing)
• External Momentum (longer-term context, hidden by default)
The result is a layered view of how fast price is moving and whether that move is gaining or losing strength.
How to Use:
• The green/red histogram shows current velocity (positive = bullish, negative = bearish)
• The teal/maroon line tracks internal momentum and provides short-term signal turns
• The black/gray (hidden) line reflects external momentum and supports broader trend alignment
• Watch for crosses above/below the zero line for confirmation of directional strength
• Use the built-in alerts to catch real-time shifts in all three layers of movement: velocity, internal, and external
Why It's Useful:
• Detects subtle transitions before price structure changes
• Helps filter out noise by comparing short-term vs long-term motion
• Ideal for scalpers, swing traders, and trend-followers alike
• Pairs well with structure-based tools or price action zones
• Works on any asset and timeframe
This indicator simplifies momentum analysis by giving you actionable, multi-layered feedback on how price is accelerating — and when that’s likely to reverse.
