Dynamic Score SMA [QuantAlgo] πŸ“ˆπŸŒŠ

The Dynamic Score SMA by QuantAlgo offers a powerful trend-following approach that combines the simplicity of the Simple Moving Average (SMA) with an innovative dynamic trend scoring technique. By continuously evaluating price movement relative to the SMA over a customizable window, this indicator adapts to varying market conditions, providing traders and investors with clearer, more adaptable trend signals. With this dynamic scoring approach, the Dynamic Score SMA helps identify trend shifts, allowing for more strategic decision-making.

🌟 Conceptual Foundation and Innovation

At the core of the Dynamic Score SMA is its dynamic trend score system, which assesses price movements by comparing them to the SMA over a series of historical data points. This technique goes beyond traditional SMA indicators by offering a dynamic, probabilistic evaluation of trend strength, delivering a more responsive and nuanced view of market direction. The integration of this scoring system enables traders and investors to navigate both trending and sideway markets with greater confidence and precision.

βš™οΈ Technical Composition and Calculation

The Dynamic Score SMA leverages the Simple Moving Average to establish a baseline trend, with customizable SMA length to control the indicator’s sensitivity. The dynamic trend scoring technique then evaluates price behavior relative to the SMA over a specified window, generating a trend score that reflects the current market bias.

When the score crosses the designated uptrend or downtrend thresholds, the indicator signals a potential trend shift. By adjusting the SMA length, window duration, and thresholds, users can refine the indicator’s responsiveness to match their preferred trading or investing strategy, making it suitable for both volatile and steady markets.

πŸ“ˆ Features and Practical Applications

  • Customizable SMA Length: Set the length of the SMA to control how sensitive the trend is to price changes. Longer lengths produce smoother trends, while shorter lengths increase responsiveness.

  • Window Length for Dynamic Scoring: Adjust the window length to determine how many data points are considered in the dynamic trend score calculation, allowing for more tailored analysis of recent versus long-term trends.

  • Uptrend/Downtrend Thresholds: Define thresholds for triggering trend signals. Higher thresholds reduce sensitivity, providing clearer signals in volatile markets, while lower thresholds capture shorter-term movements.

  • Bar and Background Coloring: Visual cues, including bar coloring and background fills, provide a quick reference for current trend direction, making it easier to monitor market conditions.

  • Trend Confirmation: The dynamic trend scoring system verifies trend strength, offering more reliable entry and exit points by filtering out potential false signals.


⚑️ How to Use

  • βœ… Add the Indicator: Add the Dynamic Score SMA to your favourites, then apply it to your chart. Customize the SMA length, window size, and thresholds to match your trading or investing preferences.

  • πŸ‘€ Monitor Trend Shifts: Observe the trend in relation to the SMA and watch for signals when the score crosses key thresholds. Bar and/or background coloring will help identify the current trend direction and any shifts in momentum.
