WVF - OscillatorAnother attempt on making use of CM-Williams-Vix-Fix-Finds-Market-Bottoms from Chris Moody - which is arguably one of the best indicator available on pine and tradingview platform. Every time I revisit this, I get new ideas on applying this method.
I have slightly altered formula to
highest(source)-source/highest(source)
from the original formula
highest(close)-low/highest(close)
Process is simple:
Calculate WVF for OHLC values separately
Calculate momentum on each of the WVF values based on distance from moving average
Plot the candles based on OHLC momentum.
Candle color depends on whether close, open and previous close. If close is higher than open and previous close, we get green coloured candles. If close is lower than previous close and open then we get red coloured candles. In all other cases, we will have silver candles.
High/Low bands are calculated based on median of highest and lowest values of VixFix. We also plot median of close which can be used in some cases.
How to use this to find market bottom. Look for one of the below conditions:
First red candle above high band - which signals momentum of vix fix is about to fall.
First red candle above median line - can be used only if upward momentum of wvf candles are trending well.
Crossunder of wvf candles under high band.
Possible exit scenarios
Green WVF candle formed above WVF high line
Entry is taken on first red candle above median line - but, candles turned green before WVF crossing under median line - may signal our thesis is wrong and price may drop further.
Some examples.

Super D2Momentum Indicator based on previous candle structure over past 40 periods
- Blue is momentum score
- Green = 15 ema
- Red = 50 sma
- orange = 100 sma
The indicator looks at the previous candles differences between open, close, high, and low to determine momentum. A high close relative to open or low indicates very strong momentum for example.
Vol%MAThis study finds buying/selling opportunities on the basis of candlestick and volume percentage changes, prequalified by momentum.
Candlestick percentage changes that are equal to or greater the desired percentage with the momentum range are marked by blue diamonds.
Volume percentage changes that are equal to or greater the desired percentage with the momentum range are marked by red circles.
When candlestick and volume percentage changes aligned with user configurations are under momentum, a buy signal is triggered with BUY ASSET and a black triangle is placed at the bottom of the chart.
When candlestick and volume percentage changes aligned with user configurations are above momentum, a sell signal is triggered with SELL ASSET and a black triangle is placed at the top of the chart.
DepthHouse - Peak DivergenceDepthHouse - Peak Divergence indicator uses the same linear regression calculation as my Peak Momentum Oscillator to help determine and plot peak momentum points.
These peak levels are then plotted by either red or green lines above or below the candle.
Red lines represent a peak in bear momentum while green represents peaks in bull momentum.
These levels are then used to determine momentum divergence in the displayed market.
If divergence is present the bars colors will change represent either bull or bear div.
Important Notes:
If the price crosses a peak line and the bar color does not change; it means momentum has increased/decreased with the price and the divergence has been canceled.
If divergence is present, and then the following candle is not colored then momentum has increased to cancel the previously present divergence.
By default, the look-back period is set to zero , which automatically calculates the distance for the peak levels to look-back. However this number can be set to whatever look-back period you would like.
At time of release this indicator is in its early stages. So please leave feedback on how it can be improved!
RSI Regime: Continuation vs Reversal Indicator Description: RSI Regime (Continuation vs. Reversal)
This indicator uses the standard Relative Strength Index (RSI) to analyze market momentum and categorize it into three "regimes." Its primary goal is to help you determine if an overbought (OB) or oversold (OS) signal is likely to be a continuation of the current trend or a reversal point.
It also identifies "Fast Trend Starts," which are exceptionally fast and powerful moves from one extreme to the other.
Core Features & How to Read It
1. The Three RSI Regimes (Background Color) The script calculates a moving average (SMA) of the RSI to determine the dominant medium-term momentum. This is shown as the background color:
Bull Regime (Green Background): The RSI's average is high (e.g., above 55). The market is in a clear uptrend.
Bear Regime (Red Background): The RSI's average is low (e.g., below 45). The market is in a clear downtrend.
Range Regime (Orange Background): The RSI's average is in the middle. The market is consolidating or undecided.
2. Overbought (OB) & Oversold (OS) Signals
When the RSI line crosses into the overbought (e.g., >70) or oversold (e.g., <30) zones, the indicator generates one of two types of signals:
A) Continuation Signals (Small Triangles: ►)
These signals suggest an OB/OS reading is just a "pause" and the main trend will likely continue.
Orange ► (at the top): Appears when RSI becomes overbought while the market is already in a Bull Regime. This suggests the uptrend is strong, and this OB signal may not lead to a big drop.
Teal ► (at the bottom): Appears when RSI becomes oversold while the market is already in a Bear Regime. This suggests the downtrend is strong, and this OS signal may not lead to a big bounce.
(Note: An optional Price EMA filter can be enabled to make these signals more strict.)
B) Reversal Signals (Small Labels: "OS→>50" / "OB→<50")
These labels appear after an OB/OS signal to confirm that a reversal has actually occurred.
"OS→>50 Reversal" (Aqua Label): Appears if the RSI becomes oversold and then recovers back above the 50 midline within a set number of bars. This confirms the oversold dip was a reversal point.
"OB→<50 Reversal" (Orange Label): Appears if the RSI becomes overbought and then falls back below the 50 midline within a set number of bars. This confirms the overbought peak was a reversal point.
3. "Fast Trend Starts" (Large Labels)
This is a unique feature that identifies the fastest percentile of market moves. It measures how many bars it takes for the RSI to go from one extreme to the other and flags when a move is in the top 5% (default) of all historical moves.
"Long Pullbacks (Fast OS→BullRange)" (Large Green Label): This powerful signal appears when the RSI moves from oversold (<30) all the way up to the bull range (>60) exceptionally fast. It identifies a very strong, fast, and decisive bounce that could signal the start of a new uptrend.
"Short Pumps (Fast OB→BearRange)" (Large Red Label): This appears when the RSI moves from overbought (>70) all the way down to the bear range (<40) exceptionally fast. It identifies a very sharp, fast rejection or "pump-and-dump" that could signal the start of a new downtrend.
Key User Inputs
RSI Length (14): The lookback period for the main RSI calculation.
OB (70) / OS (30): The standard overbought and oversold levels.
Bull/Bear Range Threshold (60/40): These are the levels used to confirm the "Fast Trend Starts." They are separate from the OB/OS levels.
RSI Regime SMA Length (21): The lookback period for the moving average that determines the background regime.
Use Price EMA filter (true): If checked, the small "Continuation" triangles will only appear if the price is also above (for bulls) or below (for bears) its own 50-period EMA.
Fastest X% duration (5.0): This sets the percentile for the "Fast Trend Start" labels. 5.0 means it only flags moves that are in the fastest 5% of all recorded moves.

Hurst-Based Trend Persistence w/Poisson Prediction

# **Hurst-Based Trend Persistence w/ Poisson Prediction**
## **Introduction**
The **Hurst-Based Trend Persistence with Poisson Prediction** is a **statistically-driven trend-following oscillator** that provides traders with **a structured approach to identifying trend strength, persistence, and potential reversals**.
This indicator combines:
- **Hurst Exponent Analysis** (to measure how persistent or mean-reverting price action is).
- **Color-Coded Trend Detection** (to highlight bullish and bearish conditions).
- **Poisson-Based Trend Reversal Probability Projection** (to anticipate when a trend is likely to end based on statistical models).
By integrating **fractal market theory (Hurst exponent)** with **Poisson probability distributions**, this indicator gives traders a **probability-weighted view of trend duration** while dynamically adapting to market volatility.
---
## **Simplified Explanation (How to Read the Indicator at a Glance)**
1. **If the oscillator line is going up → The trend is strong.**
2. **If the oscillator line is going down → The trend is weakening.**
3. **If the color shifts from red to green (or vice versa), a trend shift has occurred.**
- **Strong trends can change color without weakening** (meaning a bullish or bearish move can remain powerful even as the trend shifts).
4. **A weakening trend does NOT necessarily mean a reversal is coming.**
- The trend may slow down but continue in the same direction.
5. **A strong trend does NOT guarantee it will last.**
- Even a powerful move can **suddenly reverse**, which is why the **Poisson-based background shading** helps anticipate probabilities of change.
---
## **How to Use the Indicator**
### **1. Understanding the Rolling Hurst-Based Trend Oscillator (Main Line)**
The **oscillator line** is based on the **Hurst exponent (H)**, which quantifies whether price movements are:
- **Trending** (values above 0 → momentum-driven, persistent trends).
- **Mean-reverting** (values below 0 → price action is choppy, likely to revert to the mean).
- **Neutral (Random Walk)** (values around 0 → price behaves like a purely stochastic process).
#### **Interpreting the Oscillator:**
- **H > 0.5 → Persistent Trends:**
- Price moves tend to sustain in one direction for longer periods.
- Example: Strong uptrends in bull markets.
- **H < 0.5 → Mean-Reverting Behavior:**
- Price has a tendency to revert back to its mean.
- Example: Sideways markets or fading momentum.
- **H ≈ 0.5 → Random Walk:**
- No clear trend; price is unpredictable.
A **gray dashed horizontal line at 0** serves as a **baseline**, helping traders quickly assess whether the market is **favoring trends or mean reversion**.
---
### **2. Color-Coded Trend Signal (Visual Confirmation of Trend Shifts)**
The oscillator **changes color** based on **price slope** over the lookback period:
- **🟢 Green → Uptrend (Price Increasing)**
- Price is rising relative to the selected lookback period.
- Suggests sustained bullish pressure.
- **🔴 Red → Downtrend (Price Decreasing)**
- Price is falling relative to the selected lookback period.
- Suggests sustained bearish pressure.
#### **How to Use This in Trading**
✔ **Stay in trends until a color change occurs.**
✔ **Use color changes as confirmation for trend reversals.**
✔ **Avoid counter-trend trades when the oscillator remains strongly colored.**
---
### **3. Poisson-Based Trend Reversal Projection (Anticipating Future Shifts)**
The **shaded orange background** represents a **Poisson-based probability estimation** of when the trend is likely to reverse.
- **Darker Orange = Higher Probability of Trend Reversal**
- **Lighter Orange / No Shade = Low Probability of Immediate Reversal**
💡 **The idea behind this model:**
✔ Trends **don’t last forever**, and their duration follows **statistical patterns**.
✔ By calculating the **average historical trend duration**, the indicator predicts **how likely a trend shift is at any given time**.
✔ The **Poisson probability function** is applied to determine the **expected likelihood of a reversal as time progresses**.
---
## **Mathematical Foundations of the Indicator**
This indicator is based on **two primary statistical models**:
### **1. Hurst Exponent & Trend Persistence (Fractal Market Theory)**
- The **Hurst exponent (H)** measures **autocorrelation** in price movements.
- If past trends **persist**, H will be **above 0.5** (meaning trend-following strategies are favorable).
- If past trends tend to **mean-revert**, H will be **below 0.5** (meaning reversal strategies are more effective).
- The **Rolling Hurst Oscillator** calculates this exponent over a moving window to track real-time trend conditions.
#### **Formula Breakdown (Simplified for Traders)**
The Hurst exponent (H) is derived using the **Rescaled Range (R/S) Analysis**:
\
Where:
- **R** = **Range** (difference between max cumulative deviation and min cumulative deviation).
- **S** = **Standard deviation** of price fluctuations.
- **Lookback** = The number of periods analyzed.
---
### **2. Poisson-Based Trend Reversal Probability (Stochastic Process Modeling)**
The **Poisson process** is a **probabilistic model used for estimating time-based events**, applied here to **predict trend reversals based on past trend durations**.
#### **How It Works**
- The indicator **tracks trend durations** (the time between color changes).
- A **Poisson rate parameter (λ)** is computed as:
\
- The **probability of a reversal at any given time (t)** is estimated using:
\
- **As t increases (trend continues), the probability of reversal rises**.
- The indicator **shades the background based on this probability**, visually displaying the likelihood of a **trend shift**.
---
## **Dynamic Adaptation to Market Conditions**
✔ **Volatility-Adjusted Trend Shifts:**
- A **custom volatility calculation** dynamically adjusts the **minimum trend duration** required before a trend shift is recognized.
- **Higher volatility → Requires longer confirmation before switching trend color.**
- **Lower volatility → Allows faster trend shifts.**
✔ **Adaptive Poisson Weighting:**
- **Recent trends are weighted more heavily** using an exponential decay function:
- **Decay Factor (0.618 by default)** prioritizes **recent intervals** while still considering historical trends.
- This ensures the model adapts to changing market conditions.
---
## **Key Takeaways for Traders**
✅ **Identify Persistent Trends vs. Mean Reversion:**
- Use the oscillator line to determine whether the market favors **trend-following or counter-trend strategies**.
✅ **Visual Trend Confirmation via Color Coding:**
- **Green = Uptrend**, **Red = Downtrend**.
- Trend changes help confirm **entry and exit points**.
✅ **Anticipate Trend Reversals Using Probability Models:**
- The **Poisson projection** provides a **statistical edge** in **timing exits before trends reverse**.
✅ **Adapt to Market Volatility Automatically:**
- Dynamic **volatility scaling** ensures the indicator remains effective in **both high and low volatility environments**.
Happy trading and enjoy!
Coppock Curve with Pivot Points and Divergence The Coppock Curve is a long-term price momentum indicator used primarily to recognize major downturns and upturns in a stock market index. It is calculated as a 10-month weighted moving average of the sum of the 14-month rate of change and the 11-month rate of change for the index. It is also known as the "Coppock Guide."
The Coppock formula was introduced in Barron's in 1962 by Edwin Coppock.
The Coppock Curve is a technical indicator that provides long-term buy and sell signals for major stock indexes and related ETFs based on shifts in momentum.
What Does the Coppock Curve Tell You?
The Coppock Curve was originally implemented as a long-term buy and sell indicator for major indices such as the S&P 500 and the Wilshire 5000. Often, it is used with long-term time series such as a candlestick chart, but where each candle contains a month's worth of price information.
The Difference Between the Coppock Curve and Rate of Relative Strength Index (RSI)?
The relative strength index looks at how the current price compares to prior prices, though it is calculated differently than the rate of change (ROC) indicator used in the Coppock Curve calculation. Therefore, these indicators will provide different trade signals and information.
What are those circles?
-These are Divergences. Red for Regular-Bearish. Orange for Hidden-Bearish. Green for Regular-Bullish. Aqua for Hidden-Bullish.
What are those triangles?
- These are Pivots . They show when the VPT oscillator might reverse, this is important to know because many times the price action follows this move.
Please keep in mind that this indicator is a tool and not a strategy, do not blindly trade signals, do your own research first! Use this indicator in conjunction with other indicators to get multiple confirmations.
MDX Free Version (MA)This is a free version of the MDX Crypto trading "bot". Note that this indicator and the MDX version are based on simple code available on trading view or via google search.
This indicator is using two exponential moving averages. One average is set over 21 bars (fast) and the other is set over 55 bars (slow). When the plots intersect it represents a change in momentum. MDX refers to this as a confirmation.
Also shown on the chart is the "Super Trend" indicator. This is the red and green line with inflection points highlighted by a red or green arrow. These points are changes in uptrends and downtrends. MDX refers to this as a "long buy" when green, and a "short sell" when red. Commonly these are buy/sell signals. When a buysignal (green arrow) occurs followed by a change in momentum toward a downtrend, MDX refers to this as a "confirmed buy". When a sell signal (red arrow) occurs followed by a change in momentum toward a downtrend, MDX refers to this as a "confirmed sell". This can been seen more clearly on the MDS Crypto Free Version (PA) indicator which is also available. This uses the same information as the MA indicator, but formatted for the candle chart.
Usage:
Caution this indicator is not reliable on its own, especially on low time scales. When looking back in time this indicator will almost always show a "confirmed buy" before a large increase in price, but on many occasions you can have a "confirmed buy" which is followed by a dump in price, that will not trigger sell signal in time.
Jackrabbit.modulus.MovingAveragesThis is the Moving Averages indicator for the Jackrabbit suite and modulus framework.
This indicator supports differential timeframe analysis and confirmational bias. Dynamic timeframes are supported.
Three different algorithms are supported: Crossover/under, The 37 rule, and momentum. For momentum, the fast line is the upper boundary and the slow line is the lower boundrary. When crosses take place, the maximum and minimum vals are calculated properly in relation to the crossing points.
The main indicatior and the confirmational indicator can both be individually tuned for the fast, and slow moving averages with different and independent lengths and 27 different moving average types:
SMA, Double SMA, Triple SMA,
EMA, Double EMA, Triple EMA,
WMA, Double WMA, Triple WMA,
VWMA, Double VWMA, Triple VWMA,
Hull, Double Hull, Triple Hull,
ZLEMA, Double ZLEMA, Triple ZLEMA,
SWMA, Double SWMA, Triple SWMA,
SSMA, Double SSMA, Triple SSMA,
SMMA,Double SMMA, Triple SMMA
All moving averages can also have their own source input: Open, Close, High, Low, HL2, HLC3, and OHLC4
The Jackrabbit modulus framework is a plug in play paradigm built to operate through TradingView's indicator on indicatior (IoI) functionality. As such, this script receives a signal line from the previous script in the IoI chain, and evaluates the buy/sell signals appropriate to the current analysis. The results are either combined with the signal line, or used as confirmation to the signal line. A new signal line is generated for the next script in the link.
Buy/Sell alerts are produced by the main Jackrabbit script, or the modulus AlertSystem script. This script is not designed or meant to function outside my framework and contains no alert capabilities.
By default, the signal line is visible and the charts are turned off. Signal line visibility is controlled by the Style tab, and the charts display is controlled by the indicator settings tab.
This script is by invitation only. To learn more about accessing this script, please see my signature or send me a PM. Thank you.
SnakeWhile moving averages are a good way to visualize price action, they are, in general, very poor indicators to trade against. Usually, the lowest prices occur before the cross over of multiple moving averages, while the best profits occur just before the crossunders of the moving averages.
This study captures the buy signals before the cross overs and sells just prior to the cross unders, when prices are lowest and highest respectively.
This is accomplished by treating the moving average as a "snake", specifically looking for the "head" of the snake to turn upwards when buying is most opportunistic. Note the the body must still be trending downward.
For selling, the "snake's head" must be turning down while the body is trending up.
This script uses blue arrows, pointing up, at the bottom, to indicate a buy signal, sending an alert of BUY ASSET.
Blue arrows, point down, at the top, represent sell signals with an alert of SELL ASSET.
The gray bar or strip is momentum. The snake's head must be above momentum for a sell, and below for a buy. This study does NOT work well with stable coins.
The longer the momentum, the more likely weak signals will be weeded out, but also presents less opportunities for buys.
The longer the length of the snake, the more likely cascading down turns will be ignored, but requires a longer trend to identify buy signals.
Momentum & Williams %R This strategy join 2 power study indicators on the same plot: Willian %R and Momentum.
Willian %R can indicate the good time for you buy or sale. Less than -80 indicate good buying opportunity . Greater than -20 good sale opportunity.
Momentum can indicate the good price for buy or sale, in other words, can indicate the speed the price goes down or goes up.

Effortless ScalpingEffortless Scalping is an indicator that primarily is used for stock options trading.
Effortless Scalping is based off of momentum. Our script takes into account the price action, volume, and historical data points of a stock to give potential "buy" and "sell" areas.
Effortless Scalping is a protected script because its Buy and Sell signals are based off of custom coded confirmations. This is what makes our script unique. We also have custom coded CHOP Filters in the indicator.
Effortless Scalping has a custom EMA line that flows with the trend of the market. It also changes colors to indicate a bullish or bearish trend . It also will change into a yellow color if the CHOP of the market exceeds your allowance. This EMA line is the only "classic" element of our custom coded script.
You can easily use Effortless Scalping by applying it straight to your chart. You can customize several visual effects in the settings menu.
Effortless Scalping also has two types of signals--RISKY signals and normal signals. Risky signals have a higher risk, but also a higher reward.
Effortless Scalping also features take profit levels based off of ATR levels.
Effortless Scalping also has custom support and resistance lines to better help you analyze the movement of a stock. These levels are based off of pivot levels.
Effortless Scalping can not predict the future move of a stock. Our script uses historical data points to alert POTENTIAL entries. These historical data points by NO MEANS predict the future movement of the market.
Effortless Scalping was created to help me understand the movement of a stock and why it may be moving in that direction. I personally found success using this script. I am sharing it because I am hoping that others find success in this script as well. I also like to trade quite frequently, and several times a day, so I made an indicator that is both accurate and alerts frequently.
This indicator does NOT provide financial advice. It is intended for general use only.

Momentum Sentiment Indicator by mattzabThis indicator uses 3 moving averages and includes volume to display sentiment and momentum.
By default, a 5, 8, and 13 SMA is displayed (black lines).
The colored bands are the corresponding volume weighted moving averages.
When the colored band is above the black line, sentiment is bullish.
Think of the color as being a show of volume, and the black lines as support and resistance.
When the lines are trending up, and colors are above the black lines, an uptrend is in progress.
When the colors are mixed above and below, and the lines are intertwined, it is a ranging market.
The lines operate similar to the Williams Alligator.
Momentum by Trading BiZonesSqueeze Momentum Indicator with EMA
Overview
The Squeeze Momentum Indicator with EMA is a powerful technical analysis tool that combines the original Squeeze Momentum concept with an Exponential Moving Average (EMA) overlay. This enhanced version helps traders identify market momentum, volatility contractions (squeezes), and potential trend reversals with greater precision.
Core Concept
The indicator operates on the principle of volatility contraction and expansion:
Squeeze Phase: When Bollinger Bands move inside the Keltner Channel, indicating low volatility and potential energy buildup
Expansion Phase: When momentum breaks out of the squeeze, signaling potential directional moves
Key Components
1. Squeeze Momentum Calculation
Formula: Momentum = Linear Regression(Close - Average Price)
Where Average Price = (Highest High + Lowest Low + SMA(Close)) / 3
Visualization: Histogram bars showing positive (green) and negative (red) momentum
Zero Line: Represents equilibrium point between buyers and sellers
2. EMA Overlay
Purpose: Smooths momentum values to identify underlying trends
Customization:
Adjustable period (default: 20)
Toggle on/off display
Customizable color and line thickness
Cross Signals: Buy/sell signals when momentum crosses above/below EMA
3. Volatility Bands
Bollinger Bands (20-period, 2 standard deviations)
Keltner Channels (20-period, 1.5 ATR multiplier)
Squeeze Detection: Visual background shading when BB are inside KC
Trading Signals
Buy Signals (Green Upward Triangle)
Momentum histogram crosses ABOVE EMA line
Occurs during or after squeeze release
Confirmed by expanding histogram bars
Sell Signals (Red Downward Triangle)
Momentum histogram crosses BELOW EMA line
Often precedes market downturns
Watch for increasing negative momentum
Squeeze Warnings (Gray Background)
Market in low volatility state
Prepare for potential breakout
Direction indicated by momentum bias
Indicator Settings
Main Parameters
Length: Period for calculations (default: 20)
Show EMA: Toggle EMA visibility
EMA Period: Smoothing period for EMA
Visual Settings
Histogram color-coding based on momentum direction
EMA line color and thickness
Signal marker size and visibility
Squeeze zone background display
Practical Applications
Trend Identification
Uptrend: Consistently positive momentum with EMA support
Downtrend: Consistently negative momentum with EMA resistance
Range-bound: Oscillating around zero line
Entry/Exit Points
Conservative Entry: Wait for squeeze release + EMA crossover
Aggressive Entry: Anticipate breakout during squeeze
Exit: Opposite crossover or momentum divergence
Risk Management
Use squeeze zones as warning periods
EMA crossovers as confirmation signals
Combine with support/resistance levels
Advanced Interpretation
Momentum Strength
Strong Bullish: Tall green bars above EMA
Weak Bullish: Short green bars near EMA
Strong Bearish: Tall red bars below EMA
Weak Bearish: Short red bars near EMA
Divergence Detection
Price makes higher high, momentum makes lower high → Bearish divergence
Price makes lower low, momentum makes higher low → Bullish divergence
Squeeze Characteristics
Long squeezes: More potential energy
Frequent squeezes: Choppy market conditions
No squeezes: High volatility, trending markets
Recommended Timeframes
Scalping: 1-15 minute charts
Day Trading: 15-minute to 4-hour charts
Swing Trading: 4-hour to daily charts
Position Trading: Daily to weekly charts
Best Practices
Confirmation
Use with volume indicators
Check higher timeframe direction
Wait for candle close confirmation
Filtering Signals
Ignore signals during extreme volatility
Require minimum bar size for crossovers
Consider market context (news, sessions)
Combination Suggestions
With RSI: Confirm overbought/oversold conditions
With Volume Profile: Identify high-volume nodes
With Support/Resistance: Key level reactions
With Trend Lines: Breakout confirmations
Limitations
Lagging indicator (based on past data)
Works best in trending markets
May give false signals in ranging markets
Requires proper risk management
Conclusion
The Squeeze Momentum Indicator with EMA provides a comprehensive view of market dynamics by combining volatility analysis, momentum measurement, and trend smoothing. Its visual clarity and customizable parameters make it suitable for traders of all experience levels seeking to identify high-probability trading opportunities during volatility contractions and expansions.
Momentum Factor Model [QuantAlgo]🟢 Overview
The Momentum Factor Model is a multi-horizon momentum analysis system that combines weighted return calculations with risk-adjusted price projections to identify and track persistent directional trends. The indicator employs a quantitative approach by measuring momentum across multiple timeframes simultaneously, applying exponential decay weighting to balance recent versus historical price action, and constructing volatility-normalized boundaries for trend validation. This factor-based methodology provides traders and investors with a systematic framework for momentum regime identification, trend persistence evaluation, and dynamic support/resistance determination across diverse market conditions and timeframes.
🟢 How It Works
The indicator constructs a composite momentum factor by calculating percentage returns over three distinct lookback periods (1, 3, and 5 bars) and combining them using exponentially decayed weights. The momentum decay parameter controls the relative importance of each timeframe, with higher decay values creating more balanced weighting between recent and historical momentum, while lower values emphasize immediate price action. This weighted momentum factor captures the multi-dimensional nature of trend strength rather than relying on a single timeframe measurement.
The expected return is derived by smoothing the momentum factor over a user-defined period, establishing a baseline for anticipated price movement based on recent momentum characteristics. This expected return then projects a factor-based price estimate, which undergoes risk adjustment through volatility normalization, creating a price estimate that accounts for both directional bias and market volatility conditions.
🟢 How to Use It
▶ Enter Long positions when the momentum factor dots (⏺) transition from red to green (bullish) , indicating the momentum factor model has confirmed positive directional bias. The color change represents a validated shift where the factor line has broken through the lower boundary and begun tracking the upper bound, signaling momentum reversal to the upside. Conversely, enter Short positions or exit existing Longs when the dots shift from green to red (bearish) , confirming negative momentum establishment and downward trend tracking.
The momentum factor dots function as a dynamic momentum-based reference pathway that can be used for position management and risk control. During bullish phases, the dot formation represents a momentum-weighted support zone where pullbacks may find stability before continuation. During bearish trends, it acts as resistance where rallies may encounter selling pressure. Price action relative to the momentum factor pathway provides context on trend health: sustained price movement in the direction of the trend (above the dots during bullish phases, below during bearish phases) confirms momentum persistence, while repeated violations may suggest weakening directional conviction.
▶ Configure alert notifications to monitor trend changes without continuous chart observation. The indicator provides three alert types: "Bullish Momentum Signal" triggers specifically on upward trend reversals, "Bearish Momentum Signal" captures downward momentum shifts, and "Momentum Trend Change" fires on any directional transition. These alerts activate only when the trend state changes from one regime to another, eliminating false triggers from intrabar noise or temporary boundary touches that don't result in confirmed trend reversals.
▶ The indicator also offers six pre-designed color schemes (Classic, Aqua, Cosmic, Ember, Neon, Custom) optimized for various chart backgrounds and visual preferences, ensuring the momentum trend remains clearly visible under different display conditions. The bar coloring feature overlays trend direction directly onto the price candles, providing immediate visual confirmation of the momentum regime without needing to reference the dot pattern position.
🟢 Pro Tips for Trading and Investing
▶ Align the configuration preset with your trading timeframe and objectives: Fast Response settings excel on 1-15 minute charts for scalping and day trading where capturing quick momentum shifts is paramount, though this comes with increased signal frequency and potential whipsaws in ranging conditions. Default parameters suit hourly to daily charts for swing trading, providing balanced responsiveness without excessive noise. Smooth Trend configuration works best on 4-hour to weekly timeframes for position trading and investment analysis, prioritizing trend stability over timing precision and significantly reducing false reversals during consolidation periods.
▶ Context matters significantly for momentum-based systems. The indicator performs optimally during trending market regimes where directional persistence exists and may struggle during sideways consolidation where momentum lacks consistency. Before taking signals, assess the broader market structure: look for established higher highs/higher lows (uptrend) or lower highs/lower lows (downtrend) on higher timeframes to confirm you're trading with the dominant directional bias. During range-bound periods, reduce position sizing or wait for the momentum factor dots to establish a clear directional slope and consistent movement before committing capital.
▶ Layer the momentum factor model with complementary analysis rather than using it in isolation. Combine trend signals with volume confirmation (increasing volume on trend changes suggests institutional participation), key support/resistance levels (signals near major levels carry higher probability), and volatility context (ATR expansion can precede significant moves). Consider the momentum decay parameter's impact: values near 0.85 make the model highly sensitive to recent price action, ideal for fast-moving markets but prone to false signals; values near 0.95 create smoother momentum estimates that better filter noise but may lag major reversals.
▶ Implement dynamic position management using the momentum factor pathway as a trailing reference framework. Rather than placing fixed stops, observe the dot formation's progression: as long as it maintains its directional slope and price respects it as support (bullish) or resistance (bearish), the momentum regime remains intact. Exit or tighten stops when price closes decisively through the momentum factor dots against your position, or when the dot pathway itself flattens (losing slope) indicating momentum exhaustion. For portfolio allocation, scale position sizes based on momentum factor strength, e.g., steeper dot progression angles and faster advancement suggest stronger momentum worthy of larger allocations within your risk parameters.
Momentum Tide [Alpha Extract]A sophisticated momentum-based trend identification system that measures normalized price deviation from an EMA baseline using ATR scaling and hyperbolic tangent smoothing for precise trend state classification. Utilizing advanced signal processing with configurable neutral bands and slope sensitivity adjustments, this indicator delivers institutional-grade momentum analysis with continuous strength measurement and visual trend confirmation. The system's three-state classification (bullish, bearish, neutral) combined with dynamic color intensity scaling provides comprehensive market momentum assessment across varying volatility conditions.
🔶 Advanced Baseline Deviation Framework
Implements EMA-based baseline calculation with ATR-normalized deviation measurement to create volatility-adjusted momentum signals. The system calculates raw price deviation from the baseline, scales by ATR and slope sensitivity factor, then applies exponential smoothing for stable signal generation with reduced noise and false transitions.
// Core Momentum Calculation
Baseline = ta.ema(close, Baseline_Length)
ATR_Value = ta.atr(ATR_Length)
Raw_Deviation = (close - Baseline) / (ATR_Value * Slope_Scaler)
Signal = ta.ema(Raw_Deviation, Signal_Smoothing)
🔶 Hyperbolic Tangent Normalization Engine
Features sophisticated tanh transformation that clamps raw deviation signals into normalized -1 to +1 range for consistent interpretation across all market conditions. The system applies safe exponential calculations with value capping to prevent overflow while maintaining signal sensitivity, creating bounded momentum readings suitable for systematic threshold analysis.
// Tanh Normalization
Clamped_Signal = tanh(Signal) // Bounded to
Strength = abs(Clamped_Signal) // Momentum intensity
🔶 Three-State Classification System
Implements intelligent trend state determination using configurable neutral band thresholds to reduce whipsaw signals during ranging conditions. The system classifies market as bullish (+1) when momentum exceeds upper neutral band, bearish (-1) below lower neutral band, and neutral (0) within the band, providing clear directional bias with built-in consolidation recognition.
🔶 Dynamic Color Intensity Architecture
Provides advanced visual feedback through momentum strength-based color intensity modulation, where stronger trends display more opaque colors and weaker trends show increased transparency. The system dynamically adjusts color alpha values based on absolute momentum strength, creating intuitive visual representation of trend conviction across baseline, candles, and bars.
🔶 Trend Strength Meter Visualization
Features innovative horizontal gradient meter displaying real-time momentum position across bear-to-bull spectrum with 24-segment resolution. The system creates smooth color transitions from bearish red through neutral gray to bullish green, with arrow indicator showing precise momentum location for instant trend strength assessment without cluttering the price chart.
🔶 Intelligent Flip Detection System
Generates transition markers when trend state changes from neutral/bearish to bullish or neutral/bullish to bearish, with duplicate signal suppression to prevent marker clustering. The system tracks previous signal states and only plots new markers on genuine trend reversals, providing clean entry signal visualization for systematic trading approaches.
