How It Works:
The Market Pressure Index separates bullish and bearish momentum by analyzing price movement (close vs. open) and volatility. These values are smoothed using Hull Moving Averages (HMA) to highlight trends while minimizing noise. A deviation-based upper band dynamically tracks market extremes, signaling breakout zones. Color gradients depict the intensity of momentum, offering a clear, visually intuitive representation of market pressure. Alerts are triggered when significant crossovers or take-profit conditions occur, giving traders actionable insights without constant chart monitoring.
