Telah dikemas kini Apex Indicator
The Apex Indicator is a physics-based momentum tool designed to measure the 2nd Derivative (Acceleration) of both Price and Volume.
Unlike standard oscillators which often lag, this indicator uses Kinematics to identify the subtle shifts in momentum before price makes a major move. It answers the critical questions: Is the selling pressure fading? and Is there fresh fuel (Volume) entering to support a turn?
This script uses Hull Moving Average (HMA) smoothing for low-latency calculation, and Z-Score Normalization to force Price and Volume onto a shared, readable scale.
Visual Guide
The Histogram (Price Acceleration)
Bright Green: Strong Bullish Acceleration (High Velocity).
Dark Green: Developing Bullish Momentum (or Waning Bullishness depending on context).
Bright Red: Strong Bearish Acceleration (Panic/Dump).
Dark Red: Developing Bearish Momentum (or Waning Bearishness).
The Line (Volume Acceleration)
Yellow: Volume is accelerating (Interest is entering).
Purple: Volume is decelerating (Interest is leaving).
The Background Highlights
Green/Red Background: These mark Statistical Extremes (>1 Standard Deviation). While these show maximum power, they often mark the climax of a move rather than the start.
How to Trade: Reading the Subtleties
The power of the Apex Indicator is not in chasing the spikes, but in reading the Transitions.
1. The Turn (The Reversal Entry)
Don't wait for the explosion; look for the "braking" action.
The Setup: Price has been moving down strongly (Bright Red bars).
The Signal: The histogram shifts to Dark Red and begins moving up toward the zero line (less negative). This means the selling acceleration is dying.
The Trigger: A Dark Green bar prints, accompanied by the Volume Line turning Yellow/Rising.
Why it works: You are entering when the bearish energy is exhausted and fresh volume is stepping in to lift the price, often before the main breakout occurs.
2. The Second Wind (Trend Continuation)
The Setup: You are already in a trend (Green bars), but the bars fade to Dark Green or near Zero (a pullback or pause).
The Trigger: The next bar flips Bright Green and the Volume Line spikes Yellow.
Why it works: This confirms that the pause was just a breather, and buyers are stepping back on the gas.
3. The "Hollow Move" (Trap Avoidance)
The Scenario: Price is moving up (Green bars), but the Volume Line is Purple or dropping.
Interpretation: This is a drift, not a drive. Without volume acceleration support, these moves are prone to rapid reversal.
4. The Climax (Exits)
If the Background flashes Green (Alert Trigger), be aware that price acceleration has hit a statistical extreme (Z-Score > 1).
If you are in a position, this is often a good place to Take Profit, as maintaining that level of acceleration is mathematically difficult for the market to sustain.
Settings
Analysis Length (21): The lookback period for the HMA smoothing.
Normalization Lookback (21): The historical window used to calculate the Z-Score. A setting of 21 allows the indicator to self-adjust quickly to recent volatility conditions.

Nota Keluaran
The Apex Indicator is a physics-based momentum tool designed to measure the 2nd Derivative (Acceleration) of both Price and Volume.Unlike standard oscillators that often lag, this indicator uses Kinematics to identify the precise moment momentum shifts from bearish to bullish (and vice versa) with valid volume support. It answers the critical questions: Has the selling stopped? and Is there enough fuel (Volume) to drive the reversal?

Visual Guide
The Histogram (Price Acceleration)
Bright Green: Strong Bullish Acceleration (High Velocity).
Dark Green: Developing Bullish Momentum.
Bright Red: Strong Bearish Acceleration (Panic/Dump).
Dark Red: Developing Bearish Momentum.
The Line (Volume Acceleration)
Yellow: Volume is accelerating (Interest is entering).
Purple: Volume is decelerating (Interest is leaving).
The Background Highlights (Entry Signals)
Green Flash: Bullish Entry Signal. Momentum has flipped from Bearish to Bullish (crossed Zero) AND Volume is accelerating above your set threshold.
Red Flash: Bearish Entry Signal. Momentum has flipped from Bullish to Bearish (crossed Zero) AND Volume is accelerating above your set threshold.
How to Trade: The Apex Strategy
This indicator is designed to capture Transitions, not just extremes.
1. The "Momentum Turn" (Primary Entry)
The Setup: Price has been in a downtrend (Red Bars).
The Trigger: Watch for the Histogram to cross the Zero Line turning form Red to Green.
The Confirmation: At the exact moment of the cross, the Volume Line (Yellow) must be above your threshold (default 0.5).
Action: This signals that selling pressure has exhausted and buying pressure is stepping in with legitimate volume support. This is your "Apex Entry."
2. The "Hollow Move" (Trap Avoidance)
The Scenario: Price is moving up (Green bars), but the Volume Line is Purple or staying below your threshold.
Interpretation: This is a drift, not a drive. Without volume acceleration support, these moves are often "bull traps" prone to rapid reversal.
3. The Statistical Extreme (Profit Taking)
The Scenario: The Histogram reaches the upper/lower dotted lines (+1 / -1 Standard Deviation).
Action: When price acceleration hits these statistical extremes, the move is often near its climax. This is a high-probability area to tighten stops or take profit, rather than enter new positions.
Settings & Customization
Analysis Length (21): The lookback period for the HMA smoothing.
Normalization Lookback (21): The historical window used to calculate the Z-Score. Keeps the indicator self-adjusting to recent volatility.
Volume Alert Threshold (0.5): Crucial Setting.
0.5 (Default): Requires moderate volume support to trigger an alert.
0.2 - 0.3: More aggressive; catches earlier entries but risks more false positives.
0.8 - 1.0: Very conservative; only signals on massive, high-energy breakouts.
This updated version is a total revamp of the alert structure which I feel captures the essence of the script better.
