Momentum Trend Fusion (MTF)The Momentum Trend Fusion (MTF) is a composite indicator that combines the Awesome Oscillator and the Relative Strength Index to provide a unique perspective on market momentum and trend strength. The MTF is calculated by first running the Relative Strength Index (RSI) on the Awesome Oscillator (AO) and then applying an Exponential Moving Average (EMA) on the RSI value. The MTF is designed to help traders detect market phases and confirm trend direction by analyzing the cross of the EMA and RSI, as well as divergences between the AO and price. The MTF can be customized by the user by providing the lengths of the RSI and EMA calculations, making it an ideal tool for traders with different time frames and risk tolerances.

Momentum Sparkler (MS)Introduction:
In this script, we will be creating an indicator called "Momentum Sparkler" that plots lines on the chart to visualize the momentum of the given source.
Explanation:
First, we define the input "Source" as the source for the data to be plotted, and the input "Length" as an integer determining the number of lines to plot.
We then create an array called "lines" to store the lines we will be plotting.
Using an if statement, we check if the current bar is the last bar in the chart. If it is, we use a for loop to iterate through the range of the "Length" input and add a line to the "lines" array for each iteration. The color of each line is determined by a color gradient, with the first line being the most red and the last line being the most green.
Next, we use another if statement to check if the current bar is confirmed. If it is, we use a for loop to iterate through the "lines" array and delete all the lines. This is to prevent the lines from being carried over to the next bar and potentially being plotted multiple times.
Conclusion:
This script can be useful for quickly visualizing the momentum of the given source and identifying potential trends or reversals. It can be helpful for making trading decisions or for adding an additional layer of analysis to a chart.
MTF TMOTMO - (T)rue (M)omentum (O)scillator) MTF (Higher Aggregation) Version
TMO calculates momentum using the DELTA of price. Giving a much better picture of the trend, reversals & divergences than most momentum oscillators using price. Aside from the regular TMO, this study combines four different TMO aggregations into one indicator for an even better picture of the trend. Once you look deeper into this study you will realize how complex this tool is. This version also produce much more information like crosses, divergences, overbought / oversold signals, higher aggregation fades etc. It is probably not even possible to explain them all, there could easily be an entire e-book about this study.
I have been using this tool for a couple of years now, and this is what i have learned so far:
Favorite Time Frame Variations:
1. 1m / 5m / 30m - Great for intraday futures or options scalps. 30m TMO serves as the overall trend gauge for the day. 5min dictates the longer term intraday moves as well as direction of the 1min. 1min is for the scalps. When the 5min TMO is sloping higher focus should be on 1min buy signals (red to green cross) and vice versa for the 5min agg. sloping down.
2. 5m / 30m / 60m - Also an interesting variation for day trading the 3-5 min charts. Producing more cleaner & beginner-friendly signals that lasts couple of minutes instead of seconds.
3. 120m / Day / 2 Day - For the 30m to 1H or 2H timeframes. Daily & 2 Day dictates the overall trend. 120 min for the signals. Great for a multi-day swings.
4. Day / 2 Day / Week - Good for the daily charts, swing trading analysis as the weekly dictates the overall trend, daily dictates the signals and the 2 day cleans out the daily signals. If the daily & 2 day are not aligned togather, daily signal means nothing. Weekly dictates 2 day - 2 day dictates daily.
5. Week / Month / 3 Month - Same thing as the previous variation but for the weekly charts.
TMO Length:
The default vanilla settings are 14,5,3. Some traders prefer 21,5,3 as the TMO length is litle higher = TMO will potenially last little longer which could teoretically produce less false signals but slower crosses which means signals will lag more behind price. The lower the length, the faster the oscillator oscillates. It is the noice vs. the lag debate. The Length can be changed, but i would not personally touch the other two. Few points up or down on length will not drastically change much. But changes on Calc Length and Smooth Length can produce totally different signals from the original.
Tips & Tricks:
1. Observe
- This is the best tip & trick I can give you. The #1 best way to learn how any study operates is to just observe how it works in certain situations from the past. MTF TMO is not
an exception.
2. The Power of the Higher Aggregation
- The higher aggregation ALWAYS dictates the lower one. Best way to see this? Just 2x the current timeframe aggregation = so on daily chart, plot the daily & two day TMOs and you will notice how the higher agg. smooths out the current agg. The higher the aggregation is, the smoother (but slower) will the TMO turn. The real power kicks in when the 3 or 4 aggregations are aligned togather in one direction.
3. Position of the Higher Aggregation in Relation to the Extremes
- Overbought / oversold signals might not really work on the current aggregation. But pay attention to the higher aggregations in relation to the extremes. Ex: on the daily chart - daily TMO inside the OB / OS extremes might not mean much. But once the higher aggregations such as 3 day or Weekly TMO enters OB/OS zone togather with the daily, this can be a very powerful signal for a TMO reversion to the zeroline.
4. Crosses
- Yes, crosses do work. Personally, I never really focused on them. The thing about the crosses is that it is crucial to pick the right higher aggregation to the combination of the current one that would be reliable but also print enough signals. The closer the cross is to the OB / OS extremes, the more bigger move can occur. Crosses around the zero line can be considered as less quality crosses.
5. Divergences
- TMO can print awesome divergences. The best divergences are on the current aggregation (TMO agg. same as the chart) since the current agg. oscillates fast, it can usually produce lower lows & higher highs faster then any higher aggregations. Easy setup: wait for the higher aggregation to reach the OB / OS extremes and watch the current (chart) aggregation to print a divergence.
6. Three is Enough
- I personally find more than three aggregations messy and hard to read. But there is always the option to turn on the 4th one. Just switch the TMO 4 Main, TMO 4 Signal and TMO 4 Fill in the style settings.
Hope it helps.
Normalized Velocity [Loxx]Velocity (which is often called a "smoother momentum" since it is much smoother than momentum without lagging at all) with an addition of ATR normalization
Since velocity is (even when normalization is applied) is not an indicator with fixed bounds, this indicator is uses floating levels for what is usually called overbought and oversold levels (+ a floating "zero" line is added). Something that would look like a "fixed levels" is easily achieved if you use long floating levels period in which case those levels are quite similar to fixed levels.
This indicator can be used like any momentum indicator (in that case recommended coloring mode is to use either slope coloring or "zero" middle level crossing coloring) or it can be used as a "trending" indicator in which case it is better to use coloring on outer level cross, and longer calculation periods are advised in that case.

MA SLope Potential Divergence - FontiramisuIndicator showing potential momentum divergences on Moving Average's Slope.
The problem with the classic divergence is that when the signal appears, it is sometimes too late to enter a trade .
The potential divergence corrects this problem by signaling the beginning of a potential divergence .
Moving average slope is a momentum indicator that offers relevant insights with divergences
Potential divergences are indicated with the letter B and a red color for Bearish Div or Green color for Bullish Div .
Potential divergence is confirmed when the line and the label "Bear"' or "Bull" appear.
You can either show fast slope's divergences or slow slope's divergences or slow/fast diff's divergences.
Momentum CloudThis is a modified Ichimoku Cloud:
-The default Lookback-Length and Displacement settings have been modified to operate optimally on 24/7 markets - which is popular among Crypto analysts.
-The Lagging Span, Base Line, and Conversion Line have been removed - leaving just the bare cloud.
-Additionally, the Cloud's color will shift blue when it is compressed. (More specifically - when Leading Span A retreats to Leading Span B, the color changes.)
This allows the user to easily identify when the Cloud is "thinning", either to the upside, or the downside.
Being that the "spread" or "width" of an Ichimoku Cloud generally gauges it's efficacy as potential Support or Resistance, this tool is particularly useful for highlighting when momentum is weakening.
*This script will be updated in the future to allow the user to view the Momentum Cloud of alternate time-frames! (e.g, Viewing the 1D Momentum Cloud on the 1H timeframe)
Momentum-based ZigZag (incl. QQE) NON-REPAINTINGI spent a lot of time searching for the best ZigZag indicator. Difficulty with all of them is that they are always betting on some pre-defined rules which identify or confirm pivot points. Usually it is time factor - pivot point gets confirmed after a particular number of candles. This methodology is probably the best when market is moving relatively slow, but when price starts chopping up and down, there is no way the ZigZag follows accurately. On the other hand if you set it too tight (for example pivot confirmation after only 2 or even 1 candle), you will get hundreds of zigzag lines and they will tell you nothing.
My point of view is to follow the market. If it has reversed, then it has reversed, and there is no need to wait pre-defined number of candles for the confirmation. Such reversals will always be visible on momentum indicators, such as the most popular MACD. But a single-line moving average can be also good enough to notice reversals. Or my favourite one - QQE, which I borrowed (and improved) from JustUncleL, who borrowed it from Glaz, who borrowed it from... I don't even know where Quantitative Qualitative Estimation originates from. Thanks to all these guys for their input and code.
So whichever momentum indicator you choose - yes, there is a pick-your-poison-type selector as in in-famous Moving Average indicators - once it reverses, a highest (or lowest) point from the impulse is caught and ZigZag gets printed.
One thing I need to emphasize. This indicator DOES NOT REPAINT. It might look like the lines are a bit delayed, especially when compared to all the other ZigZag indicators on TradingView, but they are actually TRUE. There is a value in this - my indicator prints pivot points and Zigzag exactly on the moment they have been noticed, not earlier faking to be faster than they could be.
As a bonus, the indicator marks which impulse had strength in it. It is very nice to see a progressing impulse, but without force - a very likely that reversal on a bigger move is happening.
I'm about to publish some more scripts based on this ZigZag algo, so follow me on TradingView to get notified.

Spread for VSAЭтот индикатор сравнивает спрэд (расстояние от закрытия предыдущего бара до закрытия текущего бара или индикатор Momentum = 1) на периоде для сравнения.
На графике за 100 % принимается среднее значение спрэда за период для сравнения - красная линия. (по умолчанию период сравнения равен 3 - то есть три последних бара)
Размер бара на графике равен текущему спрэду по отношению к 100 %.
Если бар меньше 100 % то он ниже среднего, и наоборот если больше 100% то он больше среднего.
Если бар красный - спрэд отрицательный (текущее закрытие меньше предыдущего закрытия)
Если бар зелёный - спрэд положительный (текущее закрытие больше предыдущего закрытия)
Если бар меньше 75% то он будет окрашен в тусклый цвет (этот процент можно менять в настройках)
Если в настройках период спрэда указать больше 1, например 2, то спрэд будет равен закрытие мину закрытие через 1 бар назад. (это для экспериментов).
Примечание:
по умолчанию период для сравнения равен 3, но также интересен график и при значениях 15 и больше. Экспериментируйте.
По вопросам и предложениям пишите в комментариях.

This indicator compares the spread (the distance from the closing of the previous bar to the closing of the current bar or the Momentum indicator = 1) on the period for comparison.
On the chart, the average spread value for the period for comparison is the red line, taken as 100%. (by default, the comparison period is 3 - that is, the last three bars)
The size of the bar on the chart is equal to the current spread with respect to 100%.
If the bar is less than 100%, then it is below average, and vice versa, if more than 100%, then it is more than average.
If the bar is red, the spread is negative (the current close is less than the previous close)
If the bar is green, the spread is positive (the current close is greater than the previous close)
If the bar is less than 75%, then it will be painted in a dull color (this percentage can be changed in the settings)
If in the settings the period of the spread is specified more than 1, for example 2, then the spread will be equal to closing mine closing after 1 bar back. (this is for experimentation).
Note:
the default period for comparison is 3, but the chart is also interesting for values of 15 or more. Experiment.

Momentum on EMA oscillatorThis script calculates the momentum on a 2 ema oscillator.
Ema crossing often (always ?) come too late. The momentum is used to anticipate the moment where the 2 ema will cross, offering a signal to take into account.
Does not work well in a range market. Signal comes too late and is thus in opposition with the market timing.
Seeing such a trap is trivial as you won't buy if the market is slightly bear or flat.
Signals is quite good to detect the begining of a bull/bear market.
Can display some interesting divergence.
Function : Know Sure Thing ! (KST)Firstly : Know Sure Thing, or KST , is a momentum oscillator developed by Martin Pring to make rate-of-change readings easier for traders to interpret. In a 1992 Stocks and Commodities article, Mr. Pring referred to the indicator as "Summed Rate of Change ( KST )," but the KST term stuck with technical analysts. The indicator is relatively common among technical analysts preferring momentum oscillators to make decisions.
References : Investopedia (www.investopedia.com )
Let's start :
Simply :
KST : Above point 0 means long position (positive zone), below point 0 (negative zone) means short position.
I liked this indicator more than RSI because we can evaluate the breaking points of the channels we draw on the indicator according to the regions.
Plus area (positive area), breaking the channel upwards may indicate a very strong rise, and minus area (negative area) the channel downwards may indicate a very strong fall.
As a person who is very keen to identify major trends in advance, I like the KST indicator to approach the target quickly and simply. I also find it very successful in terms of divergences.
CAUTION : This indicator has been written before many times on TV. I have no effort on it. I saved loads only for variable periods. But I have enough experience to say that you are successful in trends with KST . Nevertheless, do not use it alone, as other promoters may benefit.
For example , I divided the standard periods into 4 as in the script. With a correct adaptive period, it has the potential to contribute greatly to accurate moves! You can use with mutable variable periods. Abundant trend lines can be drawn on the indicator and divergences between price and indicator can be sought. Best regards!

RSI Mansfield +RSI Mansfield+ – Adaptive Relative Strength Indicator with Divergences
Overview
RSI Mansfield+ is an advanced relative strength indicator that compares your instrument’s performance against a configurable benchmark index or asset (e.g., Bitcoin Dominance, S&P 500). It combines Mansfield normalization, adaptive smoothing techniques, and automatic detection of bullish and bearish divergences (regular and hidden), delivering a comprehensive tool for assessing relative strength across any market and timeframe.
Originality and Motivation
Unlike traditional relative strength scripts, this indicator introduces several distinctive improvements:
Mansfield Normalization: Scales the ratio between the asset and the benchmark relative to its moving average, transforming it into a normalized oscillator that fluctuates around zero, making it easier to spot outperformance or underperformance.
Adaptive Smoothing: Automatically selects whether to use EMA or SMA based on the market type (crypto or stocks) and timeframe (intraday, daily, weekly, monthly), avoiding manual configuration and providing more robust results under varying volatility conditions.
Divergence Detection: Identifies four types of divergences in the Mansfield oscillator to help anticipate potential reversal points or trend confirmations.
Multi-Market Support: Offers benchmark selection among major crypto and global stock indices from a single input.
These enhancements make RSI Mansfield+ more practical and powerful than conventional relative strength scripts with static benchmarks or without divergence capabilities.
Core Concepts
Relative Strength (RS): Compares price evolution between your asset and the selected benchmark.
Mansfield Normalization: Measures how much the RS deviates from its historical moving average, expressed as a scaled oscillator.
Divergences: Detects regular and hidden bullish or bearish divergences within the Mansfield oscillator.
Timeframe Adaptation: Dynamically adjusts moving average lengths based on timeframe and market type.
How It Works
Benchmark Selection
Choose among over 10 indices or market domains (BTC Dominance, ETH Dominance, S&P 500, European indices, etc.).
Ratio Calculation
Computes the price-to-benchmark ratio and smooths it with the adaptive moving average.
Normalization and Scaling
Transforms deviations into a Mansfield oscillator centered around zero.
Dynamic Coloring
Green indicates relative outperformance, red signals underperformance.
Divergence Detection
Automatically identifies bullish and bearish (regular and hidden) divergences by comparing oscillator pivots against price pivots.
Baseline Reference
A clear zero line helps interpret relative strength trends.
Usage Guidelines
Benchmark Comparison
Ideal for traders analyzing whether an asset is outperforming or lagging its sector or market.
Divergence Analysis
Helps detect potential reversal or continuation signals in relative strength.
Multi-Timeframe Compatibility
Can be applied to intraday, daily, weekly, or monthly charts.
Interpretation
Oscillator >0 and green: outperforming the benchmark.
Oscillator <0 and red: underperforming.
Bullish divergences: potential relative strength reversal to the upside.
Bearish divergences: possible loss of momentum or reversal to the downside.
Credits
The concept of Mansfield Relative Strength is based on Stan Weinstein’s original work on relative performance analysis. This script was built entirely from scratch in TradingView Pine Script v6, incorporating original logic for adaptive smoothing, normalized scaling, and divergence detection, without reusing any external open-source code.
OA - SMESSmart Money Entry Signals (SMES)
The SMES indicator is developed to identify potential turning points in market behavior by analyzing internal price dynamics, rather than relying on external volume or sentiment data. It leverages normalized price movement, directional volatility, and smoothing algorithms to detect potential areas of accumulation or distribution by market participants.
Core Concepts
Smart Money Flow calculation based on normalized price positioning
Directional VHF (Vertical Horizontal Filter) used to enhance signal directionality
Overbought and Oversold regions defined with optional glow visualization
Entry and Exit signals based on dynamic crossovers
Highly customizable input parameters for precision control
Key Inputs

Catalyst TrendCatalyst Trend – A Comprehensive Trend and Regime Analyzer
The Catalyst Trend indicator was designed to dynamically and intuitively merge various classic analytical techniques. The goal is to filter out short-term market noise and reveal reliable trend phases or potential turning points. Below is a detailed explanation of its core elements and practical usage.
1. Concept and Idea
Multidimensional Trend Detection
This indicator goes beyond a simple momentum or volatility focus. It factors in multiple measurements to provide a more well-rounded market perspective.
Versatile Indicator Fusion
Linear Regression (LinReg): Multiple LinReg calculations are combined to smooth out price fluctuations and produce a robust trendline—known here as the “Cycle Reduced Line.”
ADX (Average Directional Index): Measures trend strength.
RSI (Relative Strength Index): Flags potential overbought or oversold conditions, in both the current timeframe and a higher timeframe.
ATR (Average True Range): Assesses volatility; used to dynamically adjust calculation lengths.
By weaving these elements together, the indicator adds value beyond simply stacking multiple indicators. It adapts to real-time market conditions, aiming to highlight genuine trends and reduce false signals.
2. Key Functions and Calculations
Dynamic Length & Smoothing
A blend of volatility (ATR), ADX values, and RSI inputs determines how many candles are used in the LinReg calculations and how heavily the data is smoothed.
This allows the indicator to respond promptly during periods of high volatility, while automatically adjusting to filter out unnecessary noise in quieter phases.c
Cycle Reduced Line
The script averages several offset LinReg calculations to produce a cleaner overall signal. Random outliers are thus minimized, making the trend path more visually consistent.
An additional EMA smoothing (“Final Smoothing”) further stabilizes this trendline, reducing the impact of minor price fluctuations.
Channel Bands (Optional)
These bands are derived from the standard deviation of the price residual (the difference between the smoothed price and the trendline).
They highlight potential over-extension zones: the upper band can mark short-term overbought areas, while the lower band might indicate oversold conditions.
Trend and Sideways Determination
Slope Calculation: The slope of the trendline (comparing the current bar to the previous one) helps identify short-term directional shifts.
DX Threshold: Once the ADX surpasses a user-defined threshold and the slope is positive, it may indicate a developing uptrend. Similarly, if the slope is negative and ADX > threshold, it could signal a potential downtrend.
Multi-Level Color Coding
Original Mode: Interpolated colors reflect uptrends, downtrends, and sideways phases, factoring in metrics like ADX and RSI.
Single Color: For a neutral look, the indicator can be displayed in one uniform color.
HTF RSI: This mode uses the higher-timeframe RSI to color the trendline (Long/Short/Neutral), offering a quick gauge of overarching market pressure.
3. Use Cases and Interpretation
Timeframes & Markets
The indicator is versatile and adapts well to different intervals, from 5-minute charts to weekly views.
It can be applied to various markets—crypto, forex, stocks—since volatility and trend strength are universal concepts.
Signal Recognition
Color Swings into a more pronounced upward hue (e.g., green) may signal mounting strength.
Neutral or mixed tones often point to sideways phases, which breakout traders might watch for potential price surges.
A shift to downward colors (e.g., red) may indicate a growing bearish trend.
Channel Bands & Volatility
When the bands spread widely, it’s wise to proceed with caution: abrupt spikes above the upper band or below the lower band can flag rapid short-term extremes.
These bands are more of a reference for potential overextension than a strict buy or sell trigger.
Additional Confirmations
Not a standalone panacea: The Catalyst Trend indicator is an analytical tool, best used alongside other methods such as volume analysis or price action (candlestick patterns, support/resistance levels) to bolster confidence in trading decisions.
4. Practical Tips
Parameter Adjustments
Depending on the market—crypto vs. traditional currency pairs—different ADX, RSI, or smoothing periods may be more effective. Experiment with the settings to tailor the indicator to your preferred timeframe.
Strategic Integration
Trailing Stops: For those riding a trend, the trendline or the channel bands may serve as a reference to trail stop-loss orders.
Trend Confirmation: Using RSI and ADX filters can help traders avoid sideways markets or stay the course when the trend is strong.
5. Important Final Notes
No Guarantee of Profits
No indicator can predict the future. Markets are inherently volatile and often unpredictable.
Responsible Risk Management
Test the indicator in a demo environment or with smaller positions before committing to large trades.
