Natural Market Mirror [CC]The Natural Market Mirror was created by Jim Sloman (Ocean Theory pgs 49-57) and this is a continuation of my series from Jim Sloman's indicators. This indicator is also a momentum indicator and is very similar to the previous indicator I published, the Ocean Indicator and of course this indicator is built using ideas from the Ocean indicator. It may just be my opinion but I feel like this indicator provides better buy and sell signals in comparison. I built this using strong buy and sell indicators in addition to normal ones so darker colors are the strong signals and lighter colors are the normal signals. Buy when the line turns green and sell when it turns red.
Let me know what other indicators you would like me to publish!

Market phases 2.0The Market Phase 2.0 indicator is designed to display the following features:
1) The TREND OSCILLATOR : This trend oscillator indicates the trend of the stock/instrument. It is calculated on the basis of number of positive candles or negative candles formed during a specific period.
The oscillator oscillates around the zero horizontal line. The trend is considered bullish if the oscillator value is positive and the trend is considered negative if the oscillator value is negative.
2) The MOMENTUM OSCILLATOR:
The momentum oscillator indicates the short term momentum of the stock/instrument. It is calculated on the rate of change of close price for a specific period in the past.
The Momentum oscillator oscillates around the zero horizontal line. If the momentum oscillator has a positive value, the momentum is considered to be on the bullish side and similarly if the momentum oscillator has a negative value, the momentum is considered to be on the bearish side.
3) The SIGNAL LINE: The signal line is represented by the yellow color line. The Signal line combines the value of the Trend oscillator and the Momentum oscillator. The signal also moves around the zero line. There are two dotted lines above and below the zero line.
When the signal line crosses the upper dotted line, it indicates that the stock/instrument has moved on the upper side too quickly or sharply and the ongoing move may not continue for long. It may also be considered as overbought at that point. A red triangle appears at that point.
Similarly, when the signal line crosses the lower dotted line, it indicates that the stock/instrument has moved on the downside too quickly or sharply and the ongoing down move may not continue for long. It may also be considered as oversold at that point. A green triangle appears at that point.
The values for the look back period of the signal line and the values for the upper range and lower range of the indicator can be changed by going to the settings of the indicator.
***Disclaimer: The market movement depends upon a lot of factors which are beyond the scope of this indicator. Hence the indicator may display results not intended on rare occasions.
Trading in the markets involves involves huge risks and one should always follow his/her own research before taking any trading decisions.
Relative Strength Line by @iArpanKHello Traders!
I'm a Momentum Trader, following the Indian & US markets. Most of us are familiar with the Relative Strength (RS) indicator, popularized by Investor's Business Daily (IBD) and available on their MarketSmith platform. So, here I'm sharing a script that does the same and additionally pops an alert label when the RS line hits a new high (similar to Blue Dot appearance on MarketSmith charts).
User Settings
Inputs tab
Base Symbol : Symbol of the security/index with which you want to compare your current active symbol.
Period : Number of days since which you want to scan for a new high (default is 250 days, which approximately pops alerts for new 52 week high in RS). For example, if you want to look for new 10 days high in RS, set the Period to 10.
Style tab
RS Line : Change color using the palette provided (default is blue).
Alert Label : Show/hide alert labels by checking/unchecking the box. Change color using the palette provided. Change alert label symbol.
Precision : Default is two decimal places. Can be changed as per requirement.
Usage
The indicator consists of two components- the Relative Strength (RS) line & alert labels on new RS highs. Relative strength gives a measure of how the underlying security is performing with respect to a base index or security. For example, how is NSE:DIXON performing w.r.t NSE:NIFTY or how is NASDAQ:AAPL performing w.r.t. the TVC:SPX .
A rising RS line tells us that the underlying entity is outperforming the base entity. Similarly, a declining RS line shows under-performance of the underlying entity. A new high in RS (especially before a new high in price) often gives valuable information about the underlying security's strength w.r.t. the general market, and can tip us off to a possible breakout in the price in near future.
Making RS lists (list of stocks making new high in RS on heavy down days in index) can be very helpful to sort out leaders that are best resisting the decline and are likely to move up aggressively when the market turns favorable.
The concept of RS is extensively used by momentum traders and growth stock traders. When used in conjunction with price & volume action, this can be a very powerful tool in your trading arsenal. You can now easily spot RS trends and new highs visually by simply adding this indicator to your chart!

Triple Stochastic Momentum Index(TSMI)This script is a stochastic momentum index (SMI) indicator that is designed to view the flow of three stochastic momentums at once.
You can easily see the change in momentum by applying the values used in the triple stochastic form to the basic SMI usage.
이 스크립트는 3가지 stochastic momentum의 흐름을 한번에 볼 수 있도록 만들어진 SMI(stochastic momentum index)지표 입니다.
기본적인 SMI의 사용방식을 triple stochastic형식에서 사용되는 수치를 적용하여 쉽게 모멘텀의 변화를 확인 할 수 있습니다.
MACD Trend Squeezer V2This is a combination of a slightly sped up MACD overlay on top of a modified Bar Trend Squeeze or highly modified Momentum indicator. Helps to see the trend/momentum matched with the characteristics of the MACD and it's historiography. Very user friendly for adjusting color, transparency, depth, lines, size, etc.
MACD is the dark gray line.
Its signal slower line is orange.
Its historiography is the area fill blues and reds
Trend Squeezer / momentum are the Bars in the background.
// Changes from original version \\
Visual depth mostly. Most of the items are adjustable in the settings.
Increased user friendly inputs to adjust colors, lines, data, etc.
(darken / lighten and change background bar colors, increase/decrease line strengths and colors, adjust field data inputs)
The DiamondThe Diamond is a collection of 3 custom oscillators and the RSI. It tries to visualizing how the momentum is increasing and decreasing and gives some buy and sell signals.
Every Line explained:
Orange line: The SMI(Swing Momentum Indicator) it is alternating oscillator between the value -10 and 40 and has its baseline at 10. It showing accumulation and increase of momentum and is used as a trend confirmation
Purple line: The BTD(Buy the Dip) is a modified Version of the SMI. It should be used in Bull or Bearflags to time entries. Also the Horizontal lines can be used as Support or Resistance
Green/Red Band: This one is a custom made stochastic. In its calculation it smoothing Tops/Lows to reduce noise. Also the look is better.
White line: Just a 14-lenght RSI. I use it together with the SMI and BTD to get confirmation
The Indicator is doing best in the crypto market. High market cap Coins/USDT Pairs do better than low market cap and btc pairs. Also it should be only used on timeframes greater than 4h. 6h and daily preferred. On higher time frames you need to adjust the values of the BTD and SMI.
Bearish divergence on both Indicators in a down trending market do give a good short entry.
Bullish divergence on the daily gives good swing entries in a downtrend
FUSIONGAPS V4 {50/15-Series}Base on the FUSIONGAPS oscillator series, but Only the 50/15 oscillator is plotted, and with Momentum and Acceleration oscillators added.
The thickest line is the FG oscillator: Red/Green coloring indicates if the market is in a Bearish/Bullish period.
The green colored line is the DFG oscillator (DIFFERENTIAL FUSIONGAPS: Price Momentum)
The red colored line is the D2FG oscillator (DOUBLE-DIFFERENTIAL FUSIONGAPS: Price Acceleration)
Indicators:
DeathCrosses ( DX ) and GoldenCrosses ( GX )
Momentum Reversal indicators (D2FG based filter applied to reduce false-positives, but can be manually disabled.)

Jurik VelocityHello friends,
Meet Velocity, Jurik's ultra-smooth alternative to the traditional momentum indicator. Designed to reveal the true pace of market movement without the typical noise and lag, it offers a more accurate view of acceleration and deceleration in price. Includes an optional normalization mode to ensure the scale remains consistent across all markets.
🛠 How It Works
What's wrong with classical momentum? The standard momentum indicator is often too noisy to be useful. Traders try to fix this by applying moving averages — which smooths it, but at the cost of responsiveness.
Velocity solves this by using Jurik's non-lagging smoothing method that removes noise without delay , maintaining the sharpness of turning points while filtering out irrelevant fluctuations.
Like the classical momentum, Velocity compares the current price with that from N periods ago, but with vastly improved clarity. It helps traders detect early shifts in trend strength, exhaustion points, and potential reversals — all while keeping a steady, normalized scale for cross-market consistency.
🔥 Key Features
Non-lagging Jurik smoothing — clarity and responsiveness without delay
Highlights bullish and bearish velocity peaks for precise timing
Integrated alert conditions for velocity peak events
📸 Visual Examples
Velocity with peaks highlighting

Hophop Multiple Timeframe Momentum GridThis indicator is intended to highlight the over bought and over sold momentums for multiple timeframe
As of now it only supports StochRSI and also a variation of it that is more responsive than StochRsi called HophopRsi, I might consider adding more momentum indicators if it is desired
All the needed variables for StochRsi are included as the original indicator, feel free to change them as you normally do on StochRsi
On top of that you can select up to 4 higher timeframe , just make sure that your current timeframe is the smallest one
The top line of the graph shows the current timeframe momentum
1st line = high timeframe 1
2st line = high timeframe 2
3st line = high timeframe 3
4st line = high timeframe 4
Quick demonstration of the usage:

Compare - Oscillator vs BTC momentumI've made a simple indicator to compare the momentum of a trading pair against the momentum of BTC to the dollar. I use it to see how a pair is affected by BTC's momentum... I wouldnt use it to trade off alone, but it can be a useful tool alongside other indicators.
The time range can be adjusted, but I wouldnt reccomend setting it to anything over 12M, or under 1W.... as I'm not sure if it would work.
Any feedback is welcome!
This is an idea I had after looking at a wonderful visualisation made by BarclayJames, link below:
www.tradingview.com
Directional Trend Index (DTI) This technique was described by William Blau in his book "Momentum,
Direction and Divergence" (1995). His book focuses on three key aspects
of trading: momentum, direction and divergence. Blau, who was an electrical
engineer before becoming a trader, thoroughly examines the relationship between
price and momentum in step-by-step examples. From this grounding, he then looks
at the deficiencies in other oscillators and introduces some innovative techniques,
including a fresh twist on Stochastics. On directional issues, he analyzes the
intricacies of ADX and offers a unique approach to help define trending and
non-trending periods.
Directional Trend Index is an indicator similar to DM+ developed by Welles Wilder.
The DM+ (a part of Directional Movement System which includes both DM+ and
DM- indicators) indicator helps determine if a security is "trending." William
Blau added to it a zeroline, relative to which the indicator is deemed positive or
negative. A stable uptrend is a period when the DTI value is positive and rising, a
downtrend when it is negative and falling.
Market Momentum in Premium & Discount-Delta @MaxMaserati 3.0Market Delta Momentum in Premium & Discount-Delta @MaxMaserati 3.0
══════════════════════════════════════════════════════
Overview
The MMPD 3.0 indicator is an advanced momentum oscillator that combines market structure analysis with institutional order flow concepts. It transforms price action into a normalized 0-100 scale, identifying premium and discount zones where institutional traders typically operate, while simultaneously tracking momentum through specialized body close candles and multi-timeframe synchronization.
This indicator is designed for traders who want to:
══════════════════════════════════════════════════════
Identify high-probability reversal zones using premium/discount analysis
Track momentum divergence between price and the MMPD oscillator
Recognize institutional rejection and acceptance zones
Synchronize multiple timeframes for confluence-based trading decisions
Core Methodology
══════════════════════════════════════════════════════
MMPD Calculation
The Market Delta Momentum indicator uses a proprietary calculation that:
Normalizes price position within a specific period range (0-100 scale)
Applies double smoothing to filter noise
Calculates a balance line (similar to a moving average) to determine bullish/bearish momentum
The relationship between the MMPD line and balance line creates directional candles
Key Zones:
══════════════════════════════════════════════════════
90-100: Extreme Premium (Institutional Selling Zone)
80-90: High Premium (Caution Zone)
65-80: Premium (Bullish Bias)
50-65: Light Premium (Neutral-Bullish)
35-50: Light Discount (Neutral-Bearish)
20-35: Discount (Bearish Bias)
10-20: High Discount (Institutional Buying Zone)
0-10: Extreme Discount (High Probability Buy Zone)
MMM 3.0 Body Close Logic BC and the MMPD 3.0 Body Close Logic MBC
══════════════════════════════════════════════════════
1️⃣ Body Close Analysis (BC & MBC)
Price Body Close (BC)
Bullish BC: Price closes above the previous high AND closes above its open (green candle showing aggressive buying)
Bearish BC: Price closes below the previous low AND closes below its open (red candle showing aggressive selling)
No Body Close (NBC): All other candles - representing consolidation, pause, or loss of momentum
MMPD Body Close (MBC)
Bullish MBC: MMPD closes higher than previous MMPD structure (continuation or reversal momentum)
Bearish MBC: MMPD closes lower than previous MMPD structure (continuation or reversal momentum)
MNBC: MMPD No Body Close - weak or ranging MMPD momentum
BC + MBC Confirmation
When Price BC and MMPD MBC align in the same direction, it signals high-conviction momentum:
Deep Green: Bullish BC + Bullish MBC (Strongest Bullish Signal)
Pale Green: Bullish BC only (Moderate Bullish Signal)
Deep Red: Bearish BC + Bearish MBC (Strongest Bearish Signal)
Pale Pink: Bearish BC only (Moderate Bearish Signal)
2️⃣ Momentum Synchronization System
The indicator compares MBC (MMPD Body Close) momentum against BC (Price Body Close) momentum to identify divergence and synchronization:
Synchronized States:
BULLISH+: High volatility bullish synchronization (BC+MBC aligned, high ATR)
BULLISH-: Low volatility bullish synchronization (BC+MBC aligned, low ATR)
BEARISH+: High volatility bearish synchronization (BC+MBC aligned, high ATR)
BEARISH-: Low volatility bearish synchronization (BC+MBC aligned, low ATR)
SYNCHRONIZED: Both MMPD and Price moving together (standard bullish or bearish move)
Divergence States (Reversal Warnings):
MMPD FAST | PRICE SLOW: MMPD showing strong directional MBC candles while Price shows NBC (pause/consolidation) - Reversal Warning!
If MMPD is bullish MBC but Price is NBC → Potential Bearish Reversal
If MMPD is bearish MBC but Price is NBC → Potential Bullish Reversal
Status Indicators:
BULL / BEAR: Standard synchronized moves
BULL+ / BEAR+: High volatility synchronized moves (aggressive trending)
BULL- / BEAR-: Low volatility synchronized moves (grinding trends)
POT. BULL / POT. BEAR: Potential reversal zones (divergence detected)
BALANCED: Neutral conditions, no clear momentum alignment which is price efficiency
3️⃣ Premium/Discount Breakout Markers
🔴 Red Circle Dots (Premium Exit)
Appears when MMPD closes below 80 after being completely in the 80-100 extreme premium zone
Signals institutional distribution complete, potential reversal or correction
🟢 Green Circle Dots (Discount Exit)
Appears when MMPD closes above 20 after being completely in the 0-20 extreme discount zone
Signals institutional accumulation complete, potential rally or reversal
🔴 Red Squares (Premium Rejection)
Appears on the first candle that fails to touch 80-100 after a Bullish MBC touched that zone
Indicates rejection of premium pricing, bearish signal
🟢 Green Squares (Discount Rejection)
Appears on the first candle that fails to touch 0-20 after a Bearish MBC touched that zone
Indicates rejection of discount pricing, bullish signal
🔻 Red Triangles Down (Bearish Midline Rejection)
Signals potential bearish Resumption
🔺 Green Triangles Up (Bullish Midline Bounce)
Signals potential Bullish Resumption
4️⃣ Multi-Timeframe Dashboard with Candle time to close
The MTF table displays:
6 customizable timeframes (default: 5min, 15min, 1H, 4H, Daily, Weekly)
Premium/Discount Status with color-coded zones for each timeframe
Time to Close (T2C): Live countdown timer for each timeframe candle close
Red warning color when the candle closing time is imminent
4H timeframe auto-detects exchange-specific session starts (ES, NQ, CL, GC, etc.)
Momentum Sync Status: Shows the current synchronization state between MMPD and Price across the chart timeframe
Color Coding:
Premium zones: Green/Cyan colors
Discount zones: Purple/Magenta colors
Intensity increases with extremeness (darker = more extreme)
5️⃣ Delta MMPD Alternative View
Toggle between two oscillator calculations:
MMPD: Original MMPD
Delta MMPD: Volume-weighted delta calculation emphasizing buying/selling pressure
TIPS
══════════════════════════════════════════════════════
Use Multi-Timeframe Confluence: The strongest signals occur when multiple timeframes align in premium/discount zones
Wait for Body Close Confirmation: BC+MBC alignment = highest probability setups
Respect Momentum Sync Warnings: "MMPD FAST | PRICE SLOW" is a critical reversal warning
Trade Premium → Discount or Discount → Premium: Mean reversion from extremes offers best risk/reward
Combine with Price Action: MMPD is a momentum oscillator - always confirm with price structure (support/resistance, trendlines, chart patterns)
Educational Notes
══════════════════════════════════════════════════════
What is Premium/Discount Pricing?
Institutional traders operate based on value zones:
Premium: Price is expensive relative to recent range - institutions distribute (sell)
Discount: Price is cheap relative to recent range - institutions accumulate (buy)
Fair Value (50 line): Equilibrium pricing where institutions pause
MMM 3.0 Body Close Approach Importance
══════════════════════════════════════════════════════
BC (Body Close): Shows price commitment and aggressivity
NBC (No Body Close): Shows indecision, consolidation, or loss of momentum
Consecutive BC candles = strong momentum
NBC candles breaking BC sequence = momentum loss → potential reversal
Momentum Synchronization Theory
══════════════════════════════════════════════════════
When MMPD (momentum) moves aggressively but Price shows NBC (pause), it indicates:
Momentum exhaustion
Smart money distribution/accumulation
Imminent reversal as retail traders get trapped

VALDEX-H + Squeeze MomentumVALDEX H-SQ: The Harmonized Momentum & Trend Engine
The VALDEX H-SQ is a powerful combined indicator engineered to provide traders with clear, synchronized signals for both market momentum and trend confirmation, all within a single, visually harmonized pane.
This script fuses two robust components: the Squeeze Momentum Indicator (modified and scaled) and the Heikin-Ashi RSI (HARSI) method, offering a high-contrast view of market dynamics.
⭐ Key Features & Components
📈 Scaled Squeeze Momentum: The primary engine for market compression and release. It clearly shows when volatility has been squeezed out (potential for a large move) and the direction of the momentum acceleration/deceleration.
Bright Colors (Green/Red): Indicate Accelerating Momentum (High confidence entry).
Dark Colors (Dark Green/Dark Red): Indicate Decelerating Momentum (Signal to manage or consider exit).
📊 VALDEX-H Candles (Heikin-Ashi RSI): These unique candles provide clear trend confirmation by plotting the RSI smoothed and translated into a Heikin-Ashi format.
Teal/Green Candles: Confirms a strong Uptrend.
Red/Maroon Candles: Confirms a strong Downtrend.
🔵 RSI Overlay Line: A smoothed RSI line is plotted on top of the Squeeze histogram, offering a precise view of the overall trend strength and potential turning points.
✅ Harmonized Scaling: Both the Squeeze Momentum and the VALDEX-H components have been custom-scaled to the ±30 range, ensuring visual coherence and making it easy to compare the strength of momentum release against the underlying trend.
🔔 How to Use VALDEX H-SQ
The most reliable signals are generated by combining the two components:
LONG Entry Signal (Buy): Look for the Squeeze Momentum crossing above zero with the color switching to Bright Green (Accelerating Positive Momentum) AND the VALDEX-H Candles turning Teal/Green.
SHORT Entry Signal (Sell): Look for the Squeeze Momentum crossing below zero with the color switching to Bright Red (Accelerating Negative Momentum) AND the VALDEX-H Candles turning Red/Maroon.
Exit/Profit Taking: Consider exiting when the Squeeze momentum color shifts from Bright (Accelerating) to Dark (Decelerating), indicating momentum exhaustion.
This is the ultimate tool for traders who demand clarity, precision, and visual harmony in their momentum and trend analysis.
Luminous Glide Momentum Indicator [wjdtks255]This indicator, named "Customized SuperSmoother MA Oscillator," applies a smoothing filter to price data using a SuperSmoother technique to reduce noise and enhance signal clarity. It calculates two moving averages on the smoothed data—a fast and a slow—whose difference forms the oscillator line. A signal line is derived by smoothing the oscillator with another moving average. The histogram visualizes the divergence between the oscillator and signal lines, indicating momentum strength and direction.
How it works
SuperSmoother Filter: Reduces price noise to provide smoother and more reliable signals than raw data.
Fast and Slow Moving Averages: The fast MA reacts quicker to price changes, while the slow MA indicates longer trends.
Oscillator: The difference between the fast and slow MAs signals shifts in momentum.
Signal Line: A smoothed version of the oscillator used to generate crossovers.
Histogram: Displays the distance between the oscillator and signal line, with color changes indicating bullish or bearish momentum.
Trading Strategy
Buy Signal: When the oscillator crosses above the signal line, it suggests increasing upward momentum, signaling a potential buy opportunity.
Sell Signal: When the oscillator crosses below the signal line, it suggests increasing downward momentum, signaling a potential sell opportunity.
Histogram Size and Color: Larger green bars indicate stronger bullish momentum; larger red bars indicate stronger bearish momentum.
Usage Tips
Combine this oscillator with other indicators or price action analysis to confirm trading signals.
Adjust smoothing and moving average lengths according to your trading timeframe and the asset volatility.
Use proper risk management to filter out potential false signals common in oscillators.
[AS] MACD-v & Hist [Alex Spiroglou | S.M.A.R.T. TRADER SYSTEMS] MACD-v & MACD-v Histogram
=======================================
Volatility Normalised Momentum 📈
Twice Awarded Indicator 🏆
=======================================
=======================================
✅ 1. INTRODUCTION TO THE MACD-v ✅
=======================================
I created the MACD-v in 2015,
as a way to deal with the limitations
of well known indicators like the Stochastic, RSI, MACD.
I decided to publicly share a very small part of my research
in the form of a research paper I wrote in 2022,
titled "MACD-v: Volatility Normalised Momentum".
That paper was awarded twice:
1. The "Charles H. Dow" Award (2022),
for outstanding research in Technical Analysis,
by the Chartered Market Technicians Association (CMTA)
2. The "Founders" Award (2022),
for advances in Active Investment Management,
by the National Association of Active Investment Managers (NAAIM)
=======================================
===================================================
❌ 2. WHY CREATE THE MACD-v ?
THE LIMITATIONS OF CONVENTIONAL MOMENTUM INDICATORS
====================================================
Technical Analysis indicators focused on momentum,
come in two general categories,
each with its own set of limitations:
(i) Range Bound Oscillators (RSI, Stochastics, etc)
These usually have a scaling of 0-100,
and thus have the advantage of having normalised readings,
that are comparable across time and securities.
However they have the following limitations (among others):
1. Skewing effect of steep trends
2. Indicator values do not adjust with and reflect true momentum
(indicator values are capped to 100)
(ii) Unbound Oscillators (MACD, RoC, etc)
These are boundless indicators,
and can expand with the market,
without being limited by a 0-100 scaling,
and thus have the advantage of really measuring momentum.
They have the main following limitations (among others):
1. Subjectivity of overbought / oversold levels
2. Not comparable across time
3. Not comparable across securities
=======================================
=======================================
💡 3. THE SOLUTION TO SOLVE THESE LIMITATIONS
=======================================
In order to deal with these limitations,
I decided to create an indicator,
that would be the "Best of two worlds".
A unique & hybrid indicator,
that would have objective normalised readings
(similar to Range Bound Oscillators - RSI)
but would also be able to have no upper/lower boundaries
(similar to Unbound Oscillators - MACD).
This would be achieved by "normalising" a boundless oscillator (MACD)
=======================================
==================================================
⛔ 4. DEEP DIVE INTO THE 5 LIMITATIONS OF THE MACD
==================================================
A Bloomberg study found that the MACD
is the most popular indicator after the RSI,
but the MACD has 5 BIG limitations.
Limitation 1: MACD values are not comparable across Time
The raw MACD values shift
as the underlying security's absolute value changes across time,
making historical comparisons obsolete
e.g S&P 500 maximum MACD was 1.56 in 1957-1971,
but reached 86.31 in 2019-2021 - not indicating 55x stronger momentum,
but simply different price levels.
Limitation 2: MACD values are not comparable across Assets
Traditional MACD cannot compare momentum between different assets.
S&P 500 MACD of 65 versus EUR/USD MACD of -0.5
reflects absolute price differences, not momentum differences
Limitation 3: MACD values cannot be Systematically Classified
Due to limitations #1 & #2, it is not possible to create
a momentum level classification scale
where one can define "fast", "slow", "overbought", "oversold" momentum
making systematic analysis impossible
Limitation 4: MACD Signal Line gives false crossovers in low-momentum ranges
In range-bound, low momentum environments,
most of the MACD signal line crossovers are false (noise)
Since there is no objective momentum classification system (limitation #3),
it is not possible to filter these signals out,
by avoiding them when momentum is low
Limitation 5: MACD Signal Line gives late crossovers in high momentum regimes.
Signal lag in strong trends not good at timing the turning point
— In high-momentum moves, MACD crossovers may come late.
Since there is no objective momentum classification system (limitation #3),
it is not possible to filter these signals out,
by avoiding them when momentum is high
===================================================================
===================================================================
🏆 5. MACD-v : THE SOLUTION TO THE LIMITATIONS OF THE MACD , RSI, etc
====================================================================
MACD-v is a volatility normalised momentum indicator.
It remedies these 5 limitations of the classic MACD,
while creating a tool with unique properties.
Formula: × 100
MACD-V enhances the classic MACD by normalizing for volatility,
transforming price-dependent readings into standardized momentum values.
This resolves key limitations of traditional MACD and adds significant analytical power.
Core Advantages of MACD-V
Advantage 1: Time-Based Stability
MACD-V values are consistent and comparable over time.
A reading of 100 has the same meaning today as it did in the past
(unlike traditional MACD which is influenced by changes in price and volatility over time)
Advantage 2: Cross-Market Comparability
MACD-V provides universal scaling.
Readings (e.g., ±50) apply consistently across all asset classes—stocks,
bonds, commodities, or currencies,
allowing traders to compare momentum across markets reliably.
Advantage 3: Objective Momentum Classification
MACD-V includes a defined 5-range momentum lifecycle
with standardized thresholds (e.g., -150 to +150).
This offers an objective framework for analyzing market conditions
and supports integration with broader models.
Advantage 4: False Signal Reduction in Low-Momentum Regimes
MACD-V introduces a "neutral zone" (typically -50 to +50)
to filter out these low-probability signals.
Advantage 5: Improved Signal Timing in High-Momentum Regimes
MACD-V identifies extremely strong trends,
allowing for more precise entry and exit points.
Advantage 6: Trend-Adaptive Scaling
Unlike bounded oscillators like RSI or Stochastic,
MACD-V dynamically expands with trend strength,
providing clearer momentum insights without artificial limits.
Advantage 7: Enhanced Divergence Detection
MACD-V offers more reliable divergence signals
by avoiding distortion at extreme levels,
a common flaw in bounded indicators (RSI, etc)
====================================================================
=======================================
⚒️ 5. HOW TO USE THE MACD-v: 7 CORE PATTERNS
HOW TO USE THE MACD-v Histogram: 2 CORE PATTERNS
=======================================
>>>>>> BASIC USE (RANGE RULES) <<<<<<
The MACD-v has 7 Core Patterns (Ranges) :
1. Risk Range (Overbought)
Condition: MACD-V > Signal Line and MACD-V > +150
Interpretation: Extremely strong bullish momentum—potential exhaustion or reversal zone.
2. Retracing
Condition: MACD-V < Signal Line and MACD-V > -50
Interpretation: Mild pullback within a bullish trend.
3. Rundown
Condition: MACD-V < Signal Line and -50 > MACD-V > -150
Interpretation: Momentum is weakening—bearish pressure building.
4. Risk Range (Oversold)
Condition: MACD-V < Signal Line and MACD-V < -150
Interpretation: Extreme bearish momentum—potential for reversal or capitulation.
5. Rebounding
Condition: MACD-V > Signal Line and MACD-V > -150
Interpretation: Bullish recovery from oversold or weak conditions.

Enhanced Holt-Winters RSI [BOSWaves]Enhanced Holt-Winters RSI – Next-Level Momentum Smoothing & Signal Precision
Overview
The Enhanced Holt-Winters RSI transforms the classic Relative Strength Index into a robust, lag-minimized momentum oscillator through Holt-Winters triple exponential smoothing. By modeling the level, trend, and cyclical behavior of the RSI series, this indicator delivers smoother, more responsive signals that highlight overbought/oversold conditions, momentum shifts, and high-conviction trading setups without cluttering the chart with noise.
Unlike traditional RSI, which reacts to historical data and produces frequent whipsaws, the Enhanced Holt-Winters RSI filters transient price fluctuations, enabling traders to detect emerging momentum and potential reversal zones earlier.
Theoretical Foundation
The traditional RSI measures relative strength by comparing average gains and losses, but suffers from:
Lag in trend recognition : Signals often arrive after momentum has shifted.
Noise sensitivity : High-frequency price movements generate unreliable crossovers.
Limited insight into structural market shifts : Standard RSI cannot contextualize cyclical or momentum patterns.
The Enhanced Holt-Winters RSI addresses these limitations by applying triple exponential smoothing directly to the RSI series. This decomposes the series into:
Level (Lₜ) : Represents the smoothed central tendency of RSI.
Trend (Tₜ) : Captures rate-of-change in smoothed momentum.
Seasonal Component (Sₜ) : Models short-term cyclical deviations in momentum.
By incorporating these elements, the oscillator produces smoothed RSI values that react faster to emerging trends while suppressing erratic noise. Its internal forecast is mathematical, influencing the smoothed RSI output and signals, rather than being directly plotted.
How It Works
The Enhanced Holt-Winters RSI builds its signal framework through several layers:
1. Base RSI Calculation
Computes standard RSI over the selected period as the primary momentum input.
2. Triple Exponential Smoothing (Holt-Winters)
The RSI is smoothed recursively to extract underlying momentum structure:
Level, trend, and seasonal components are combined to produce a smoothed RSI.
This internal smoothing reduces lag and enhances signal reliability.
3. Momentum Analysis
Short-term momentum shifts are tracked via a moving average of the smoothed RSI, highlighting acceleration or deceleration in directional strength.
4. Volume Confirmation (Optional)
Buy/sell signals can be filtered through a configurable volume threshold, ensuring only high-conviction moves trigger alerts.
5. Visual Output
Colored Candles : Represent overbought (red), oversold (green), or neutral (yellow) conditions.
Oscillator Panel : Plots the smoothed RSI with dynamic color coding for immediate trend context.
Signals : Triangular markers indicate bullish or bearish setups, with stronger signals flagged in extreme zones.
Interpretation
The Enhanced Holt-Winters RSI provides a multi-dimensional perspective on price action:
Trend Strength : Smoothed RSI slope and color coding reflect the direction and momentum intensity.
Momentum Shifts : Rapid changes in the smoothed RSI indicate emerging strength or weakness.
Overbought/Oversold Zones : Highlight areas where price is stretched relative to recent momentum.
High-Conviction Signals : Combined with volume filtering, markers indicate optimal entries/exits.
Cycle Awareness : Smoothing reveals structural patterns, helping traders avoid reacting to noise.
By combining these elements, traders gain early insight into market structure and momentum without relying on raw, lag-prone RSI data.
Strategy Integration
The Enhanced Holt-Winters RSI can be applied across trading styles:
Trend Following
Enter when RSI is aligned with price momentum and color-coded signals confirm trend direction.
Strong slope in the smoothed RSI signals trend continuation.
Reversal Trading
Look for RSI extremes with momentum shifts and strong signal markers.
Compression in oscillator values often precedes reversal setups.
Breakout Detection
Oscillator flattening in neutral zones followed by directional expansion indicates potential breakout conditions.
Multi-Timeframe Confluence
Higher timeframes provide directional bias; lower timeframes refine entry timing using smoothed RSI dynamics.
Technical Implementation Details
Input Source : Close, open, high, low, or price.
Smoothing : Holt-Winters triple exponential smoothing applied to RSI.
Parameters :
Level (α) : Controls smoothing of RSI.
Trend (β) : Adjusts responsiveness to momentum changes.
Seasonal Length : Defines cycles for short-term adjustments.
Delta Smoothing : Reduces choppiness in smoothed RSI difference.
Outputs :
Smoothed RSI
Colored candles and oscillator panel
Buy/Sell signal markers (with optional strength filtering)
Volume Filtering : Optional threshold to confirm signals.
Optimal Application Parameters
Asset-Specific Guidance:
Forex : Use moderate smoothing (α, β) to capture medium-term momentum swings while filtering minor price noise. Works best when combined with volume or volatility filters.
Equities : Balance responsiveness and smoothness to identify sustained sector momentum or rotational shifts; ideal for capturing clean directional transitions.
Cryptocurrency : Increase smoothing parameters slightly to stabilize RSI during extreme volatility; optional volume confirmation can help filter false signals.
Futures/Indices : Lower smoothing sensitivity emphasizes macro momentum and structural trend durability over short-term fluctuations.
Timeframe Optimization:
Scalping (1-5m) : Use higher sensitivity (lower smoothing factors) to react quickly to micro-momentum reversals.
Intraday (15m-1h) : Balance smoothing and responsiveness for detecting short-term acceleration and exhaustion zones.
Swing (4h-Daily) : Apply moderate smoothing to reveal underlying directional persistence and cyclical reversals.
Position (Daily-Weekly) : Use stronger smoothing to isolate dominant momentum trends and filter temporary pullbacks.
Integration Guidelines
Combine with trend filters (EMAs, SuperSmoother MA, ATR-based tools) for confirmation.
Use volume and signal strength markers to filter low-conviction trades.
Slope, color, and signal alignment can guide entry, stop placement, and scaling.
Disclaimer
The Enhanced Holt-Winters RSI is a technical analysis tool, not a guaranteed profit system. Effectiveness depends on proper settings, market structure, and disciplined risk management. Always backtest before live trading.
Pro Momentum Table + Trade Alerts📊 Indicator Name: Pro Momentum Table – ADX + DI + ATR + Astro Timing
🧠 Concept:
This indicator is designed for professional scalpers and intraday traders who want to capture only strong momentum waves — not noise. It combines trend strength, volatility, directional movement, momentum oscillation, vega divergence, and astrological timing into a single compact table on your chart.
⚙️ Components Explained:
Metric Description
ADX (Average Directional Index) Measures the strength of the trend. Values above 20 indicate that a meaningful move is starting.
+DI / -DI (Directional Indicators) Show whether buyers (+DI) or sellers (-DI) are dominating. Increasing +DI with ADX rising = bullish momentum. Increasing -DI with ADX rising = bearish momentum.
ATR (Average True Range) Shows volatility and expected range. Used for setting realistic stop-loss and multi-level targets (1×, 1.5×, 2×, 2.5× ATR).
Price Displays the current price level for quick reference.
CMO (Chande Momentum Oscillator) Measures short-term momentum direction and strength. Helps identify overbought/oversold conditions in trend continuation.
Vega Divergence Shows a synthetic reading of volatility pressure — "Bullish" when volatility expansion supports upward moves, "Bearish" for downward pressure, and "Neutral" otherwise.
Astro Remark Suggests ideal time windows based on planetary cycles for scalping entries. “Bullish Window” often aligns with high-probability long trades; “Bearish Window” favors shorts.
Trade Signal The core momentum condition: “Bullish Momentum” if ADX > 20 and +DI rising, “Bearish Momentum” if ADX > 20 and -DI rising, else “No Clear Momentum.”
📈 How to Use:
Wait for ADX > 20 – This confirms that the market is entering a strong momentum phase.
Check DI direction:
✅ +DI rising: Buyers gaining strength → look for long setups.
✅ -DI rising: Sellers gaining strength → look for short setups.
Use ATR to plan exits:
🎯 TP1 = Entry ± 1 × ATR
🎯 TP2 = Entry ± 1.5 × ATR
🎯 TP3 = Entry ± 2 × ATR
🎯 TP4 = Entry ± 2.5 × ATR
CMO & Vega Divergence: Confirm momentum direction and volatility expansion before committing.
Astro Remark: Align your scalping activity with the planetary support window for higher probability trades.
🪙 Pro Tips for Scalpers:
Only trade when ADX > 20 and DI is consistently rising. Ignore signals in choppy or sideways phases.
Avoid trades if Vega is neutral and CMO is flat – these usually indicate fake breakouts.
If targets aren’t hit within expected ATR-based time, treat the move as false and exit early.
Combine with 9 EMA and 20 EMA (hidden) for wave structure confirmation without cluttering the chart.
💡 Summary:
This indicator acts as a real-time trade decision dashboard. It removes clutter from the chart and delivers everything a professional scalper needs — strength, direction, volatility, momentum, timing, and actionable trade bias — all in one elegant table.
VWAP Momentum Oscillator How It Works
Core Calculation Method
The oscillator combines four key market measurements into a single, normalized reading:
1. Price-VWAP Deviation: `(Close - VWAP) / VWAP × 100`
2. VWAP-MA Momentum: `(VWAP - MovingAverage) / MovingAverage × 100`
3. Anchored VWAP Strength: Average of high/low anchor deviations from rolling VWAP
4. Range Position: `(Close - PeriodLow) / (PeriodHigh - PeriodLow) × 100 - 50`
Dynamic Signal Line
The signal line uses an EMA that automatically adjusts its length based on your chart timeframe:
- Futures: Always covers 23 hours of trading (1,380 minutes)
- Stocks: Always covers 6.5 hours of trading (390 minutes)
- Examples: 276 periods on 5-min futures chart, 1,380 periods on 1-min futures chart

Version History & Development
This oscillator evolved from advanced VWAP overlay strategies, transforming complex multi-line analysis into a single, actionable momentum gauge. The indicator maintains the sophistication of institutional VWAP analysis while providing the clarity needed for retail trading decisions.
Core Philosophy
Traditional VWAP indicators show where price is relative to volume-weighted averages, but they don't quantify momentum or provide clear entry/exit signals. This oscillator solves that problem by normalizing all VWAP relationships into a single, bounded indicator that works consistently across all timeframes and asset classes.

Signalgo VSignalgo V: Technical Overview and Unique Aspects
Signalgo V is a technical indicator for TradingView that integrates multiple layers of analysis: moving averages, MACD, Bollinger Bands and RSI to deliver buy and sell signals. Below is an informational breakdown of how the indicator functions, its input parameters, signal logic, exit methodology, and how it stands apart from traditional moving average (MA) tools, without disclosing specifics that allow for code duplication.
How Signalgo V Works
1. Multi-Layered Technical Synthesis
Signalgo V processes several technical studies simultaneously:
Fast/Slow Moving Averages: Uses either EMA or SMA (user-selected) with adjustable periods. These are central to initial trend detection through crossovers.
MACD Filter: MACD line vs. signal line cross-check ensures trend direction is supported by both momentum and MA structure.
RSI Confirmation: The RSI is monitored to verify that signals are not excessively overbought or oversold, tuning the system to changing momentum regimes.
Bollinger Bands Context: Entry signals are only considered when price action is beyond the Bollinger Bands envelope, which further filters for unusually strong movements.
These strict, multi-indicator entry criteria are designed to ensure only the most robust signals are surfaced, each is contingent on the presence of aligned trend, momentum and volatility.
2. Exit Methodology
Take-Profit Levels: After entering a trade, the strategy automatically sets three predefined profit targets (TP1, TP2, TP3). If the price reaches any of these targets, the system marks it, helping you lock in profits at different stages.
Stop-Loss System: Simultaneously, a stop-loss (SL) value is set, protecting you from significant losses if the market moves against your position.
Dynamic Adjustment: When the first profit target (TP1) is hit, the system can automatically move the stop-loss to your entry price. This means your worst-case outcome is break-even from that point, reducing downside risk.
Trailing Stop-Loss: After TP1 is reached, a dynamic trailing stop can activate. This allows the stop-loss to follow the price as it moves in your favor, aiming to capture more profit if the trend continues, while still protecting your gains if the price reverses.
Visual Markers: The system plots all important exit levels (profit targets, stop-loss, trailing stop) directly on the chart. Optional labels also appear whenever a target or stop-loss is hit, making it easy to see progress.
Visual cues (labels) are plotted directly on the bar where a buy or sell signal triggers, clarifying entry points and aiding manual exit/risk management decisions.
Input Parameters
rsiLen: Lookback period for RSI calculation.
rsiOB and rsiOS: Overbought/oversold thresholds, adaptive to the indicator’s multi-layered logic.
maFastLen and maSlowLen: Periods for fast and slow MAs.
maType: EMA or SMA selectable for both MAs.
bbLen: Length for Bollinger Bands mean calculation.
bbMult: Standard deviation multiplier for BB width.
macdFast, macdSlow, macdSig: Standard MACD parameterization for nuanced momentum oversight.
What Separates Signalgo V from Traditional Moving Average Indicators
Composite Signal Architecture: Where traditional MA systems generate signals solely on MA crossovers, Signalgo V requires layered, cross-confirmational logic across trend (MAs), momentum (MACD), volatility (Bollinger Bands), and market strength (RSI).
Adaptive Volatility Context: MA signals only “count” when price is meaningfully breaking out of its volatility envelope, filtering out most unremarkable crosses that plague basic MA strategies.
Integrated Multi-Factor Filters: Strict compliance with all layers of signal logic is enforced. A marked improvement over MA strategies that lack secondary or tertiary confirmation.
Non-Redundant Event Limiting: Each entry is labeled as a unique event. The indicator does not repeat signals on subsequent bars unless all entry conditions are freshly met.
Trading Strategy Application
Trend Identification: By requiring concurrence among MA, MACD, RSI, and BB, this tool identifies only those trends with robust, multifactor support.
Breakout and Momentum Entry: Signals are bias-toward trades that initiate at likely breakout points (outside BB range), combined with fresh momentum and trend alignment.
Manual Discretion for Exits: The design is to empower traders with high-confidence entries and leave risk management or partial profit-taking adaptive to trader style, using visual cues from all component indicators.
Alert Generation: Each buy/sell event optionally triggers an alert, supporting systematic monitoring without constant chart watching.
PRO Investing - Apex EnginePRO Investing - Apex Engine
1. Core Concept: Why Does This Indicator Exist?
Traditional momentum oscillators like RSI or Stochastic use a fixed "lookback period" (e.g., 14). This creates a fundamental problem: a 14-period setting that works well in a fast, trending market will generate constant false signals in a slow, choppy market, and vice-versa. The market's character is dynamic, but most tools are static.
The Apex Engine was built to solve this problem. Its primary innovation is a self-optimizing core that continuously adapts to changing market conditions. Instead of relying on one fixed setting, it actively tests three different momentum profiles (Fast, Mid, and Slow) in real-time and selects the one that is most synchronized with the current price action.
This is not just a random combination of indicators; it's a deliberate synthesis designed to create a more robust momentum tool. It combines:
Volatility analysis (ATR) to generate adaptive lookback periods.
Momentum measurement (ROC) to gauge the speed of price changes.
Statistical analysis (Correlation) to validate which momentum measurement is most effective right now.
Classic trend filters (Moving Average, ADX) to ensure signals are only taken in favorable market conditions.
The result is an oscillator that aims to be more responsive in volatile trends and more stable in quiet periods, providing a more intelligent and adaptive signal.
2. How It Works: The Engine's Three-Stage Process
To be transparent, it's important to understand the step-by-step logic the indicator follows on every bar. It's a process of Adapt -> Validate -> Signal.
Stage 1: Adapt (Dynamic Length Calculation)
The engine first measures market volatility using the Average True Range (ATR) relative to its own long-term average. This creates a volatility_factor. In high-volatility environments, this factor causes the base calculation lengths to shorten. In low-volatility, they lengthen. This produces three potential Rate of Change (ROC) lengths: dynamic_fast_len, dynamic_mid_len, and dynamic_slow_len.
Stage 2: Validate (Self-Optimizing Mode Selection)
This is the core of the engine. It calculates the ROC for all three dynamic lengths. To determine which is best, it uses the ta.correlation() function to measure how well each ROC's movement has correlated with the actual bar-to-bar price changes over the "Optimization Lookback" period. The ROC length with the highest correlation score is chosen as the most effective profile for the current moment. This "active" mode is reflected in the oscillator's color and the dashboard.
Stage 3: Signal (Normalized Velocity Oscillator)
The winning ROC series is then normalized into a consistent oscillator (the Velocity line) that ranges from -100 (extreme oversold) to +100 (extreme overbought). This ensures signals are comparable across any asset or timeframe. Signals are only generated when this Velocity line crosses its signal line and the trend filters (explained below) give a green light.
3. How to Use the Indicator: A Practical Guide
Reading the Visuals:
Velocity Line (Blue/Yellow/Pink): The main oscillator line. Its color indicates which mode is active (Fast, Mid, or Slow).
Signal Line (White): A moving average of the Velocity line. Crossovers generate potential signals.
Buy/Sell Triangles (▲ / ▼): These are your primary entry signals. They are intentionally strict and only appear when momentum, trend, and price action align.
Background Color (Green/Red/Gray): This is your trend context.
Green: Bullish trend confirmed (e.g., price above a rising 200 EMA and ADX > 20). Only Buy signals (▲) can appear.
Red: Bearish trend confirmed. Only Sell signals (▼) can appear.
Gray: No clear trend. The market is likely choppy or consolidating. No signals will appear; it is best to stay out.
Trading Strategy Example:
Wait for a colored background. A green or red background indicates the market is in a tradable trend.
Look for a signal. For a green background, wait for a lime Buy triangle (▲) to appear.
Confirm the trade. Before entering, confirm the signal aligns with your own analysis (e.g., support/resistance levels, chart patterns).
Manage the trade. Set a stop-loss according to your risk management rules. An exit can be considered on a fixed target, a trailing stop, or when an opposing signal appears.
4. Settings and Customization
This script is open-source, and its settings are transparent. You are encouraged to understand them.
Synaptic Engine Group:
Volatility Period: The master control for the adaptive engine. Higher values are slower and more stable.
Optimization Lookback: How many bars to use for the correlation check.
Switch Sensitivity: A buffer to prevent frantic switching between modes.
Advanced Configuration & Filters Group:
Price Source: The data source for momentum calculation (default close).
Trend Filter MA Type & Length: Define your long-term trend.
Filter by MA Slope: A key feature. If ON, allows for "buy the dip" entries below a rising MA. If OFF, it's stricter, requiring price to be above the MA.
ADX Length & Threshold: Filters out non-trending, choppy markets. Signals will not fire if the ADX is below this threshold.
5. Important Disclaimer
This indicator is a decision-support tool for discretionary traders, not an automated trading system or financial advice. Past performance is not indicative of future results. All trading involves substantial risk. You should always use proper risk management, including setting stop-losses, and never risk more than you are prepared to lose. The signals generated by this script should be used as one component of a broader trading plan.
Step Channel Momentum Trend [ChartPrime]OVERVIEW
Step Channel Momentum Trend is a momentum-based price filtering system that adapts to market structure using pivot levels and ATR volatility. It builds a dynamic channel around a stepwise midline derived from swing highs and lows. The system colors price candles based on whether price remains inside this channel (low momentum) or breaks out (strong directional flow). This allows traders to clearly distinguish ranging conditions from trending ones and take action accordingly.
⯁ STRUCTURAL MIDLNE (STEP CHANNEL CORE)
The midline acts as the backbone of the trend system and is based on structure rather than smoothing.
Calculated as the average of the most recent confirmed Pivot High and Pivot Low.
The result is a step-like horizontal line that only updates when new pivot points are confirmed.
This design avoids lag and makes the line "snap" to recent structural shifts.
It reflects the equilibrium level between recent bullish and bearish control.
This unique step logic creates clear regime shifts and prevents noise from distorting trend interpretation.
⯁ DYNAMIC VOLATILITY BANDS (ATR FILTERING)
To detect momentum strength, the script constructs upper and lower bands using the ATR (Average True Range):
The distance from the midline is determined by ATR × multiplier (default: 200-period ATR × 0.6).
These bands adjust dynamically to volatility, expanding in high-ATR environments and contracting in calm markets.
The area between upper and lower bands represents a neutral or ranging market state.
Breakouts outside the bands are treated as significant momentum shifts.
This filtering approach ensures that only meaningful breakouts are visually emphasized — not every candle fluctuation.
⯁ MOMENTUM-BASED CANDLE COLORING
The system visually transforms price candles into momentum indicators:
When price (hl2) is above the upper band, candles are green → bullish momentum.
When price is below the lower band, candles are red → bearish momentum.
When price is between the bands, candles are orange → low or no momentum (range).
The candle body, wick, and border are all colored uniformly for visual clarity.
This gives traders instant feedback on when momentum is expanding or fading — ideal for breakout, pullback, or trend-following strategies.
⯁ PIVOT-BASED SWING ANCHORS
Each confirmed pivot is plotted as a label ⬥ directly on the chart:
They also serve as potential manual entry zones, SL/TP anchors, or confirmation points.
⯁ MOMENTUM STATE LABEL
To reinforce the current market mode, a live label is displayed at the most recent candle:
Displays either:
“ Momentum Up ” when price breaks above the upper band.
“ Momentum Down ” when price breaks below the lower band.
“ Range ” when price remains between the bands.
Label color matches the candle color for quick identification.
Automatically updates on each bar close.
This helps discretionary traders filter trades based on market phase.
USAGE
Use the green/red zones to enter with momentum and ride trending moves.
Use the orange zone to stay out or fade ranges.
The step midline can act as a breakout base, pullback anchor, or bias reference.
Combine with other indicators (e.g., order blocks, divergences, or volume) to build high-confluence systems.
CONCLUSION
Step Channel Momentum Trend gives traders a clean, adaptive framework for identifying trend direction, volatility-based breakouts, and ranging environments — all from structural logic and ATR responsiveness. Its stepwise midline provides clarity, while its dynamic color-coded candles make momentum shifts impossible to miss. Whether you’re scalping intraday momentum or managing swing entries, this tool helps you trade with the market’s rhythm — not against it.
Volume Momentum [BackQuant]Volume Momentum
The Volume Momentum indicator is designed to help traders identify shifts in market momentum based on volume data. By analyzing the relative volume momentum, this indicator provides insights into whether the market is gaining strength (uptrend) or losing momentum (downtrend). The strategy uses a combination of percentile-based volume normalization, weighted moving averages (WMA), and exponential moving averages (EMA) to assess volume trends.
The system focuses on the relationship between price and volume, utilizing normalized volume data to highlight key market changes. This approach allows traders to focus on volume-driven price movements, helping them to capture momentum shifts early.
Key Features
1. Volume Normalization and Percentile Calculation:
The signed volume (positive when the close is higher than the open, negative when the close is lower) is normalized against the rolling average volume. This normalized volume is then subjected to a percentile interpolation, allowing for a robust statistical measure of how the current volume compares to historical data. The percentile level is customizable, with 50 representing the median.
2. Weighted and Smoothed Moving Averages for Trend Detection:
The normalized volume is smoothed using weighted moving averages (WMA) and exponential moving averages (EMA). These smoothing techniques help eliminate noise, providing a clearer view of the underlying momentum. The WMA filters out short-term fluctuations, while the EMA ensures that the most recent data points have a higher weight, making the system more responsive to current market conditions.
3. Trend Reversal Detection:
The indicator detects momentum shifts by evaluating whether the volume momentum crosses above or below zero. A positive volume momentum indicates a potential uptrend, while a negative momentum suggests a possible downtrend. These trend reversals are identified through crossover and crossunder conditions, triggering alerts when significant changes occur.
4. Dynamic Trend Background and Bar Coloring:
The script offers customizable background coloring based on the trend direction. When volume momentum is positive, the background is colored green, indicating a bullish trend. When volume momentum is negative, the background is colored red, signaling a bearish trend. Additionally, the bars themselves can be colored based on the trend, further helping traders quickly visualize market momentum.
5. Alerts for Momentum Shifts:
The system provides real-time alerts for traders to monitor when volume momentum crosses a critical threshold (zero), signaling a trend reversal. The alerts notify traders when the market momentum turns bullish or bearish, assisting them in making timely decisions.
6. Customizable Parameters for Flexible Usage:
Users can fine-tune the behavior of the indicator by adjusting various parameters:
Volume Rolling Mean: The period used to calculate the average volume for normalization.
Percentile Interpolation Length: Defines the range over which the percentile is calculated.
Percentile Level: Determines the percentile threshold (e.g., 50 for the median).
WMA and Smoothing Periods: Control the smoothing and response time of the indicator.
7. Trend Background Visualization and Trend-Based Bar Coloring:
The background fill is shaded according to whether the volume momentum is positive or negative, providing a visual cue to indicate market strength. Additionally, bars can be color-coded to highlight the trend, making it easier to see the trend’s direction without needing to analyze numerical data manually.
8. Note on Mean-Reversion Strategy:
If you take the inverse of the signals, this indicator can be adapted for a mean-reversion strategy. Instead of following the trend, the strategy would involve buying assets that are underperforming and selling assets that are overperforming, based on volume momentum. However, it’s important to note that this approach may not work effectively on highly correlated assets, as their price movements may be too similar, reducing the effectiveness of the mean-reversion strategy.
Final Thoughts

Whether used for trend-following or adapted for mean-reversion, this tool provides traders with actionable insights into the market’s volume-driven movements, improving decision-making and portfolio management.
