Area per Interval
Description
This indicator shades the area between 2 curves, an SMA and the nearest open/close to the SMA, and their intersections. The black labels with leader lines describe the calculated area of each shaded section, and the total area accumulated per total number of time intervals for that area. The additional value visible in the status line that is not displayed on the chart is, at any bar index (time interval), the current total area of the incomplete shaded area.
Usage
- The default color of the shaded areas denote the type of momentum being built before the cross. Green for bullish, red for bearish.
- The area value of the shaded areas can be used as a capacity indicator, denoting imbalances between the previous and next crosses.
- The area per interval value of the shaded areas can be used as a momentum indicator, denoting which area is carrying more price movement before the price crosses.
- Similar to indicators that use dynamic price differences between OHLC data, moving averages, etc, confluence with other momentum indicators that use different elements creates additional confirmation.
Conclusion
Simple momentum indicator. Comment for possible updates that can be made.
