Volume-Price Momentum IndicatorVolume-Price Momentum Indicator (VPMI)
Overview
The Volume-Price Momentum Indicator (VPMI), developed by Kevin Svenson , is a powerful technical analysis tool designed to identify strong bullish and bearish momentum in price movements, driven by volume dynamics. By analyzing price changes and volume surges over a user-defined lookback period, VPMI highlights potential trend shifts and continuation patterns through a smoothed histogram, optional labels, and background highlights. Ideal for traders seeking to capture momentum-driven opportunities, VPMI is suitable for various markets, including stocks, forex, and cryptocurrencies.
How It Works
VPMI calculates the difference between volume-weighted buying and selling pressure based on price changes over a specified lookback period. It amplifies signals during high-volume periods, applies smoothing to reduce noise, and uses momentum checks to detect sustained trends.
Indicator display:
A histogram that oscillates above (bullish) or below (bearish) a zero line, with brighter colors indicating stronger momentum and faded colors for weaker signals.
Optional labels ("Bullish" or "Bearish") to mark significant momentum shifts.
Optional background highlights to visually emphasize strong trend conditions.
Alerts to notify users when strong bullish or bearish momentum is detected.
Key Features
Customizable Settings:
Adjust the lookback period, volume threshold, momentum length, and smoothing to suit your trading style.
Volume Sensitivity:
Emphasizes price movements during high-volume surges, enhancing signal reliability.
Momentum Detection: Uses linear regression and momentum change to confirm sustained trends, reducing false signals.
Visual Clarity:
Offers a clear histogram with color-coded signals, plus optional labels and backgrounds for enhanced chart readability.
Alerts:
Configurable alerts for strong momentum signals, enabling timely trade decisions.
Inputs and Customization
Lookback Period (Default: 9):
Sets the number of bars to analyze price changes. Higher values smooth signals but may lag.
Volume Threshold (Default: 1.4):
Defines the volume level (relative to a 20-period SMA) that qualifies as a surge, amplifying signals.
High Volume Multiplier (Default: 1.5):
Boosts histogram values during high-volume periods for stronger signals.
Histogram Smoothing Length (Default: 4):
Controls the EMA smoothing applied to the histogram, reducing noise.
Momentum Check Length (Default: 4):
Sets the period for momentum trend analysis (recommended to be less than Lookback Period).
Momentum Threshold (Default: 6):
Defines the minimum momentum change required for strong signals.
Show Labels (Default: Off):
Toggle to display "Bullish" or "Bearish" labels on significant momentum shifts.
Show Backgrounds (Default: Off):
Toggle to highlight chart backgrounds during strong momentum periods.
Bullish/Bearish Colors:
Customize colors for bullish (default: green) and bearish (default: red) signals.
Faded Transparency (Default: 40):
Adjusts the transparency of weaker signals for visual distinction.
How to Use
Interpret Signals:
Above Zero (Green):
Indicates bullish momentum. Bright green suggests strong, sustained buying pressure.
Below Zero (Red):
Indicates bearish momentum. Bright red suggests strong, sustained selling pressure.
Faded Colors:
Weaker momentum, potentially signaling consolidation or trend exhaustion.
Enable Visuals:
Turn on "Show Labels" and "Show Backgrounds" in the settings for additional context on strong momentum signals.
Set Alerts:
Use the built-in alert conditions ("Strong Bullish Momentum" or "Strong Bearish Momentum") to receive notifications when significant trends emerge.
Combine with Other Tools:
Pair VPMI with support/resistance levels, trendlines, or other indicators (e.g., RSI, MACD) for confirmation.
Best Practices
Timeframe:
VPMI works on all timeframes, but shorter timeframes (e.g., 5m, 15m) may produce more signals, while longer timeframes (e.g., 1h, 4h, 1D) offer higher reliability.
Market Conditions:
Most effective in trending markets. In choppy or sideways markets, consider increasing the smoothing length or momentum threshold to filter noise.
Risk Management:
Always use VPMI signals in conjunction with a robust trading plan, including stop-losses and position sizing.
Limitations
Lagging Nature:
As a momentum indicator, VPMI may lag in fast-moving markets due to smoothing and lookback calculations.
False Signals:
In low-volume or ranging markets, signals may be less reliable. Adjust the volume threshold or momentum settings to improve accuracy.
Customization Required:
Optimal settings vary by asset and timeframe. Experiment with inputs to align with your trading strategy.
Why Use VPMI?
VPMI offers a unique blend of volume and price momentum analysis, making it a versatile tool for traders seeking to identify high-probability trend opportunities. Its customizable inputs, clear visuals, and alert capabilities empower users to tailor the indicator to their needs, whether for day trading, swing trading, or long-term analysis.

📊 Core Components
✅ ATR Delta (Rolling ATR)
- Definition: Difference between current ATR and past ATR (user-defined lookback).
- Use: Tells whether volatility is expanding (positive delta) or contracting (negative delta).
- Visual: Green line for rising momentum, red for declining.
🟣 ATR Delta Slope
- Definition: Measures acceleration in momentum.
- Use: Helps identify early signs of breakout buildup.
- Visual: Purple line. Watch for slope turning up from below.
🟡 Volatility Squeeze (Yellow Dot)
- Definition: Current ATR is significantly lower than its 20-period average.
- Use: Indicates the market is coiling—possible breakout ahead.
🔼 Momentum Start (Green Triangle)
- Definition: ATR Delta slope turns from negative to positive.
- Use: Early warning to prepare for volatility expansion.
🔷 Breakout Confirmation (Blue Label Up)
- Definition: ATR Delta exceeds its high of the last 10 candles.

🔷 How to Use Squeeze Momentum Pro
🔍 Identifying Trends
Squeeze Momentum Pro supports two different methods for identifying the trend visually, each based on a distinct logic:
Squeeze Momentum Trend (LazyBear-style):
Displays 3 states based on the position of the Bollinger Bands relative to the Keltner Channel:
🔵 Blue = No Squeeze (BB outside KC and KC outside BB)
⚪️ White = Squeeze Active (BB fully inside KC)
⚫️ Gray = Neutral state (none of the above)
TTM Squeeze Trend (John Carter-style):
Calculates the difference in width between the Bollinger Bands and the Keltner Channel:
🟩 Green = BB width is greater than KC → potential expansion phase
🟥 Red = BB are tighter than KC → possible compression or pre-breakout
📈 Interpreting Signals
Depending on the active configuration, the indicator can provide various signals, including:
Trend color → Reflects the current compression/expansion state (based on selected mode)
Momentum value (above or below 0) → May indicate directional pressure
Signal Line cross → Can highlight momentum shifts
Color change in the momentum → May suggest a potential trend reversal
🛠 Integration with Other Tools
Squeeze Momentum Pro works well alongside other indicators to strengthen market context:
✅ Volume Profile / OBV – Helps confirm accumulation or distribution during squeezes
✅ RSI – Useful to detect divergence between momentum and price
✅ Moving Averages – Ideal for defining primary trend direction and filtering signals

Jdawg Sentiment Momentum Oscillator EnhancedThe Jdawg Sentiment Momentum Oscillator Enhanced (JSMO_E) is a versatile technical analysis indicator designed to provide traders with insights into potential trend changes and overbought or oversold market conditions. JSMO_E combines the principles of the Relative Strength Index (RSI), the Simple Moving Average (SMA), and the Rate of Change (ROC) to create a comprehensive tool for assessing market sentiment and momentum.
The uniqueness of JSMO_E lies in its ability to integrate the RSI, SMA of RSI, and ROC of RSI, while also allowing users to customize the weight of the ROC component. This combination of features is not commonly found in other indicators, which increases its distinctiveness.
To effectively use JSMO_E, follow these steps:
Apply the JSMO_E indicator to the price chart of the asset you are analyzing.
Observe the plotted JSMO_E line in relation to the zero line, overbought, and oversold levels.
When the JSMO_E line crosses above the zero line, it may signal the beginning of an uptrend or bullish momentum. Conversely, when the JSMO_E line crosses below the zero line, it may indicate the start of a downtrend or bearish momentum.
Overbought and oversold levels, marked by the red and green dashed lines, respectively, can serve as a warning that a trend reversal may be imminent. When the JSMO_E line reaches or surpasses the overbought level, it might indicate that the asset is overvalued and could experience a price decline. Conversely, when the JSMO_E line reaches or goes below the oversold level, it can signal that the asset is undervalued and may experience a price increase.
Adjust the input parameters (RSI Period, SMA Period, ROC Period, and ROC Weight) as needed to optimize the indicator for the specific market and time frame you are analyzing.
The JSMO_E indicator is suitable for various markets, including stocks, forex, commodities, and cryptocurrencies. However, its effectiveness may vary depending on the market conditions and time frames used. It is recommended to use JSMO_E in conjunction with other technical analysis tools and methods to confirm potential trade setups and improve overall trading performance. Always conduct thorough backtesting and forward-testing before employing any indicator in a live trading environment.
Special Momentum Oscillator
This is my proprietary momentum oscillator indicator.
It is an indicator that seeks to track the momentum of price actions.
When the oscillator is above zero, it is interpreted to reflect upwards price momentum.
Likewise, when the oscillator is below zero, it reflects downwards price momentum.
Additionally, there are overbought and oversold zones at 10 and -10 respectively.
When price action reaches these extremes, there is a likely tendency for a reversal.
The slope of the indicator can also be used to identify the general price trend.
The indicator has customizable alerts, and you can also set it to show buy/sell signals.

TradFi Fundamentals: Enhanced Macroeconomic Momentum Trading Introduction
The "Enhanced Momentum with Advanced Normalization and Smoothing" indicator is a tool that combines traditional price momentum with a broad range of macroeconomic factors. I introduced the basic version from a research paper in my last script. This one leverages not only the price action of a security but also incorporates key economic data—such as GDP, inflation, unemployment, interest rates, consumer confidence, industrial production, and market volatility (VIX)—to create a comprehensive, normalized momentum score.
Previous indicator
Explanation
In plain terms, the indicator calculates a raw momentum value based on the change in price over a defined lookback period. It then normalizes this momentum, along with several economic indicators, using a method chosen by the user (options include simple, exponential, or weighted moving averages, as well as a median absolute deviation (MAD) approach). Each normalized component is assigned a weight reflecting its relative importance, and these weighted values are summed to produce an overall momentum score.
To reduce noise, the combined momentum score can be further smoothed using a user-selected method.
Signals
For generating trade signals, the indicator offers two modes:
Zero Cross Mode: Signals occur when the smoothed momentum line crosses the zero threshold.
Zone Mode: Overbought and oversold boundaries (which are user defined) provide signals when the momentum line crosses these preset limits.
Definition of the Settings
Price Momentum Settings:
Price Momentum Lookback: The number of days used to compute the percentage change in price (default 50 days).
Normalization Period (Price Momentum): The period over which the price momentum is normalized (default 200 days).
Economic Data Settings:
Normalization Period (Economic Data): The period used to normalize all economic indicators (default 200 days).
Normalization Method: Choose among SMA, EMA, WMA, or MAD to standardize both price and economic data. If MAD is chosen, a multiplier factor is applied (default is 1.4826).
Smoothing Options:
Apply Smoothing: A toggle to enable further smoothing of the combined momentum score.
Smoothing Period & Method: Define the period and type (SMA, EMA, or WMA) used to smooth the final momentum score.
Signal Generation Settings:
Signal Mode: Select whether signals are based on a zero-line crossover or by crossing user-defined overbought/oversold (OB/OS) zones.
OB/OS Zones: Define the upper and lower boundaries (default upper zones at 1.0 and 2.0, lower zones at -1.0 and -2.0) for zone-based signals.
Weights:
Each component (price momentum, GDP, inflation, unemployment, interest rates, consumer confidence, industrial production, and VIX) has an associated weight that determines its contribution to the overall score. These can be adjusted to reflect different market views or risk preferences.
Visual Aspects
The indicator plots the smoothed combined momentum score as a continuous blue line against a dotted zero-line reference. If the Zone signal mode is selected, the indicator also displays the upper and lower OB/OS boundaries as horizontal lines (red for overbought and green for oversold). Buy and sell signals are marked by small labels ("B" for buy and "S" for sell) that appear at the bottom or top of the chart when the score crosses the defined thresholds, allowing traders to quickly identify potential entry or exit points.
Conclusion
This enhanced indicator provides traders with a robust approach to momentum trading by integrating traditional price-based signals with a suite of macroeconomic indicators. Its normalization and smoothing techniques help reduce noise and mitigate the effects of outliers, while the flexible signal generation modes offer multiple ways to interpret market conditions. Overall, this tool is designed to deliver a more nuanced perspective on market momentum.
SPDR Relativ Sector MomentumThe SPDR Relativ Sector Momentum Indicator is designed to evaluate the momentum of key U.S. market sectors relative to the broader market, represented by the S&P 500 Index (SPY). This indicator uses momentum-based techniques to assess sector performance and highlight relative strength or weakness over a given period. It leverages rate of change (ROC) as the primary momentum measure and incorporates smoothing via a simple moving average (SMA).
Methodology
This measure is smoothed over a configurable length (default: 20 periods) to filter noise and highlight trends. Sector momentum is computed for 11 key SPDR ETFs:
• XLE: Energy
• XLB: Materials
• XLI: Industrials
• XLY: Consumer Discretionary
• XLP: Consumer Staples
• XLV: Healthcare
• XLF: Financials
• XLK: Technology
• XLC: Communication Services
• XLU: Utilities
• XLRE: Real Estate
Momentum for the SPY is calculated similarly and serves as a benchmark.
Visualization
The indicator displays relative momentum values in a structured table, with high-contrast colors for better readability. The table dynamically updates sector performance, allowing users to easily track which sectors are outperforming or underperforming SPY. Additionally, the relative momentum values are plotted as individual lines around a zero baseline, providing visual confirmation of trends.
Applications
1. Portfolio Allocation: By identifying leading and lagging sectors, investors can allocate resources to sectors with strong momentum and reduce exposure to weaker sectors.
2. Trend Identification: The zero baseline helps users distinguish between sectors with positive and negative relative momentum.
3. Momentum Trading: The indicator aids in trading strategies that capitalize on sector rotations by highlighting momentum shifts.
Theoretical Background
Momentum strategies are grounded in behavioral finance theory and empirical research. They exploit the tendency of securities with strong past performance to continue outperforming in the short term. Jegadeesh and Titman (1993) demonstrated that momentum strategies yield significant returns over intermediate horizons (3-12 months). Applying this framework to sectors enhances the granularity of momentum analysis.
Limitations
While momentum strategies have shown historical efficacy, they are prone to mean reversion during periods of market instability (Barroso & Santa-Clara, 2015). Moreover, sector ETFs may exhibit varying levels of liquidity and sensitivity to macroeconomic factors, affecting signal reliability.

This indicator provides a practical tool for evaluating sector-specific momentum dynamics, grounded in robust financial theory. Its modular design allows customization, making it a versatile instrument for momentum-based sector analysis.
GKD-C QQE of Polychromatic Momentum [Loxx]The Giga Kaleidoscope GKD-C QQE of Polychromatic Momentum is a confirmation module included in Loxx's "Giga Kaleidoscope Modularized Trading System."
█ Giga Kaleidoscope GKD-C QQE of Polychromatic Momentum
The Quantitative Qualitative Estimation (QQE) of Polychromatic Momentum is a trading strategy used in financial markets. This technical indicator is designed to gauge the momentum and trend of a particular asset's price over a specific period. It helps investors identify potential buying and selling opportunities based on the changes in price momentum.
The algorithm operates by calculating the weighted momentum of the price changes over time, where more recent changes have a higher weight. It then smooths this momentum using a type of moving average, reducing the impact of short-term fluctuations and focusing more on longer-term momentum trends.
Additionally, the algorithm maintains two distinct trend lines based on different speeds of price changes: a slow and a fast trend. These trends, coupled with the smoothed momentum, provide potential signals for investors.
When the smoothed momentum crosses the fast trend line, it could be seen as an indication that the price is picking up speed and might be a good time to buy. On the other hand, when the smoothed momentum crosses the slow trend line, it might be seen as a signal that the price momentum is slowing, indicating a potential selling opportunity.
In essence, the QQE of Polychromatic Momentum is a comprehensive tool that combines weighted momentum calculation, trend analysis, and signal generation to aid investors in making more informed trading decisions.

Core components of an NNFX algorithmic trading strategy
The NNFX algorithm is built on the principles of trend, momentum, and volatility. There are six core components in the NNFX trading algorithm:
1. Volatility - price volatility; e.g., Average True Range, True Range Double, Close-to-Close, etc.
2. Baseline - a moving average to identify price trend
3. Confirmation 1 - a technical indicator used to identify trends
4. Confirmation 2 - a technical indicator used to identify trends
5. Continuation - a technical indicator used to identify trends
6. Volatility/Volume - a technical indicator used to identify volatility/volume breakouts/breakdown
7. Exit - a technical indicator used to determine when a trend is exhausted
8. Metamorphosis - a technical indicator that produces a compound signal from the combination of other GKD indicators*
*(not part of the NNFX algorithm)
What is Volatility in the NNFX trading system?
In the NNFX (No Nonsense Forex) trading system, ATR (Average True Range) is typically used to measure the volatility of an asset. It is used as a part of the system to help determine the appropriate stop loss and take profit levels for a trade. ATR is calculated by taking the average of the true range values over a specified period.
True range is calculated as the maximum of the following values:
-Current high minus the current low
-Absolute value of the current high minus the previous close
-Absolute value of the current low minus the previous close
ATR is a dynamic indicator that changes with changes in volatility. As volatility increases, the value of ATR increases, and as volatility decreases, the value of ATR decreases. By using ATR in NNFX system, traders can adjust their stop loss and take profit levels according to the volatility of the asset being traded. This helps to ensure that the trade is given enough room to move, while also minimizing potential losses.
Other types of volatility include True Range Double (TRD), Close-to-Close, and Garman-Klass
What is a Baseline indicator?
The baseline is essentially a moving average, and is used to determine the overall direction of the market.
The baseline in the NNFX system is used to filter out trades that are not in line with the long-term trend of the market. The baseline is plotted on the chart along with other indicators, such as the Moving Average (MA), the Relative Strength Index (RSI), and the Average True Range (ATR).
Trades are only taken when the price is in the same direction as the baseline. For example, if the baseline is sloping upwards, only long trades are taken, and if the baseline is sloping downwards, only short trades are taken. This approach helps to ensure that trades are in line with the overall trend of the market, and reduces the risk of entering trades that are likely to fail.
By using a baseline in the NNFX system, traders can have a clear reference point for determining the overall trend of the market, and can make more informed trading decisions. The baseline helps to filter out noise and false signals, and ensures that trades are taken in the direction of the long-term trend.
What is a Confirmation indicator?
Confirmation indicators are technical indicators that are used to confirm the signals generated by primary indicators. Primary indicators are the core indicators used in the NNFX system, such as the Average True Range (ATR), the Moving Average (MA), and the Relative Strength Index (RSI).
The purpose of the confirmation indicators is to reduce false signals and improve the accuracy of the trading system. They are designed to confirm the signals generated by the primary indicators by providing additional information about the strength and direction of the trend.
Some examples of confirmation indicators that may be used in the NNFX system include the Bollinger Bands, the MACD (Moving Average Convergence Divergence), and the MACD Oscillator. These indicators can provide information about the volatility, momentum, and trend strength of the market, and can be used to confirm the signals generated by the primary indicators.
In the NNFX system, confirmation indicators are used in combination with primary indicators and other filters to create a trading system that is robust and reliable. By using multiple indicators to confirm trading signals, the system aims to reduce the risk of false signals and improve the overall profitability of the trades.
What is a Continuation indicator?
In the NNFX (No Nonsense Forex) trading system, a continuation indicator is a technical indicator that is used to confirm a current trend and predict that the trend is likely to continue in the same direction. A continuation indicator is typically used in conjunction with other indicators in the system, such as a baseline indicator, to provide a comprehensive trading strategy.
What is a Volatility/Volume indicator?
Volume indicators, such as the On Balance Volume (OBV), the Chaikin Money Flow (CMF), or the Volume Price Trend (VPT), are used to measure the amount of buying and selling activity in a market. They are based on the trading volume of the market, and can provide information about the strength of the trend. In the NNFX system, volume indicators are used to confirm trading signals generated by the Moving Average and the Relative Strength Index. Volatility indicators include Average Direction Index, Waddah Attar, and Volatility Ratio. In the NNFX trading system, volatility is a proxy for volume and vice versa.
By using volume indicators as confirmation tools, the NNFX trading system aims to reduce the risk of false signals and improve the overall profitability of trades. These indicators can provide additional information about the market that is not captured by the primary indicators, and can help traders to make more informed trading decisions. In addition, volume indicators can be used to identify potential changes in market trends and to confirm the strength of price movements.
What is an Exit indicator?
The exit indicator is used in conjunction with other indicators in the system, such as the Moving Average (MA), the Relative Strength Index (RSI), and the Average True Range (ATR), to provide a comprehensive trading strategy.
The exit indicator in the NNFX system can be any technical indicator that is deemed effective at identifying optimal exit points. Examples of exit indicators that are commonly used include the Parabolic SAR, the Average Directional Index (ADX), and the Chandelier Exit.
The purpose of the exit indicator is to identify when a trend is likely to reverse or when the market conditions have changed, signaling the need to exit a trade. By using an exit indicator, traders can manage their risk and prevent significant losses.
In the NNFX system, the exit indicator is used in conjunction with a stop loss and a take profit order to maximize profits and minimize losses. The stop loss order is used to limit the amount of loss that can be incurred if the trade goes against the trader, while the take profit order is used to lock in profits when the trade is moving in the trader's favor.
Overall, the use of an exit indicator in the NNFX trading system is an important component of a comprehensive trading strategy. It allows traders to manage their risk effectively and improve the profitability of their trades by exiting at the right time.
What is an Metamorphosis indicator?
The concept of a metamorphosis indicator involves the integration of two or more GKD indicators to generate a compound signal. This is achieved by evaluating the accuracy of each indicator and selecting the signal from the indicator with the highest accuracy. As an illustration, let's consider a scenario where we calculate the accuracy of 10 indicators and choose the signal from the indicator that demonstrates the highest accuracy.
The resulting output from the metamorphosis indicator can then be utilized in a GKD-BT backtest by occupying a slot that aligns with the purpose of the metamorphosis indicator. The slot can be a GKD-B, GKD-C, or GKD-E slot, depending on the specific requirements and objectives of the indicator. This allows for seamless integration and utilization of the compound signal within the GKD-BT framework.
How does Loxx's GKD (Giga Kaleidoscope Modularized Trading System) implement the NNFX algorithm outlined above?
Loxx's GKD v2.0 system has five types of modules (indicators/strategies). These modules are:
1. GKD-BT - Backtesting module (Volatility, Number 1 in the NNFX algorithm)
2. GKD-B - Baseline module (Baseline and Volatility/Volume, Numbers 1 and 2 in the NNFX algorithm)
3. GKD-C - Confirmation 1/2 and Continuation module (Confirmation 1/2 and Continuation, Numbers 3, 4, and 5 in the NNFX algorithm)
4. GKD-V - Volatility/Volume module (Confirmation 1/2, Number 6 in the NNFX algorithm)
5. GKD-E - Exit module (Exit, Number 7 in the NNFX algorithm)
6. GKD-M - Metamorphosis module (Metamorphosis, Number 8 in the NNFX algorithm, but not part of the NNFX algorithm)
(additional module types will added in future releases)
Each module interacts with every module by passing data to A backtest module wherein the various components of the GKD system are combined to create a trading signal.
That is, the Baseline indicator passes its data to Volatility/Volume. The Volatility/Volume indicator passes its values to the Confirmation 1 indicator. The Confirmation 1 indicator passes its values to the Confirmation 2 indicator. The Confirmation 2 indicator passes its values to the Continuation indicator. The Continuation indicator passes its values to the Exit indicator, and finally, the Exit indicator passes its values to the Backtest strategy.
This chaining of indicators requires that each module conform to Loxx's GKD protocol, therefore allowing for the testing of every possible combination of technical indicators that make up the six components of the NNFX algorithm.
What does the application of the GKD trading system look like?
Example trading system:
Backtest: Multi-Ticker Full GKD Backtest
Baseline: Hull Moving Average
Volatility/Volume: Hurst Exponent
Confirmation 1: Precision Trendf as shown on the chart above
Confirmation 2: uf2018
Continuation: Coppock Curve
Exit: Rex Oscillator
Metamorphosis: Baseline Optimizer
Each GKD indicator is denoted with a module identifier of either: GKD-BT, GKD-B, GKD-C, GKD-V, GKD-M, or GKD-E. This allows traders to understand to which module each indicator belongs and where each indicator fits into the GKD system.

Adaptive Momentum BaseThe Adaptive Momentum Base, (AMB), is a momentum based indicator which measures the momentum change in the recent candles and changes the colour of bar which it occurred on.
Momentum is used as a confirmation to show that the market may move in favour of your direction if the momentum is present for that direction.
Trade Example:
If you have long/short positions open and the market is moving in your favour, the signal will indicate to hold on to the position for a while has the price action has not been completed.
Script Explained:
AMB works by using the velocity created by the bars during the period of the "lookback" which is then used to formulate the momentum. The momentum is then compared against the previous bars and if a spike in momentum occurs, the indicator will follow to give a signal.
Advanced Averaged Momentum Indicator (AAMI)Key Features of AAMI:
Combination of Momentum Indicators: It averages normalized values from RSI, MACD histogram, raw Momentum, and Stochastic oscillator to give a comprehensive view of momentum.
Normalization: Each component is normalized to a scale from -1 to 1 to ensure they contribute equally to the AMI calculation.
Visual Cues: The indicator includes visual levels for neutral, overbought, and oversold conditions to aid in quick decision-making.
Alerts: Basic alert conditions are included for when AMI moves into overbought or oversold territory, which traders can customize further.
Customizable: All parameters can be adjusted within TradingView to tailor the indicator to different market conditions or trading strategies.
Smoothing: Included an SMA for AMI to reduce noise and give smoother signals.
Divergence Detection: Implemented a basic divergence detection mechanism to spot potential reversals.
Usage Tips:
Overbought/Oversold: When AMI goes above 0.7, it might suggest an overbought condition, potentially signaling a sell or take profit. Below -0.7 might indicate oversold conditions, suggesting a buy opportunity.
Divergence: Watch for divergences between the AMI and price action for signals of potential trend reversals.
Crossing Zero: The AMI crossing from negative to positive might be used as a buy signal, and vice versa for a sell signal.
This script provides a new way to view momentum by consolidating multiple traditional indicators into one, potentially offering clearer signals in complex market environments.
RSI-ROC Momentum AlertThis is the RSI-ROC Momentum Alert trading indicator, designed to help traders identify potential buy and sell signals based on the momentum of price movements.
The indicator is based on two technical indicators: the Rate of Change (ROC) and the Relative Strength Index (RSI). The ROC measures the speed of price changes over a given period, while the RSI measures the strength of price movements. By combining these two indicators, this trading indicator aims to provide a comprehensive view of the market momentum.
An RSI below its oversold level, which shows as a green background, in addition to a ROC crossing above its moving average (turns green) signals a buying opportunity.
An RSI above its overbought level, which shows as a red background, in addition to a ROC crossing below its moving average (turns red) signals a selling opportunity.
Traders can use this indicator to identify potential momentum shifts and adjust their trading strategies accordingly.
The ROC component of the indicator uses a user-defined length parameter to calculate the ROC and a simple moving average (SMA) of the ROC. The color of the ROC line changes to green when it is above the ROC SMA and to red when it is below the ROC SMA. The ROC SMA color changes whether it's above or below a value of 0.
The RSI component of the indicator uses a user-defined length parameter to calculate the RSI, and user-defined RSI Low and RSI High values to identify potential buy and sell signals. When the RSI falls below the RSI Low value, a green background color is applied to the chart to indicate a potential buy signal. Conversely, when the RSI rises above the RSI High value, a red background color is applied to the chart to indicate a potential sell signal.
This indicator is intended to be used on any time frame and any asset, and can be customized at will.
Market momentum catcherIs a tool used to catch market momentum. If the color is green it means the bulls are in momentum or the prices will continue to increase, if the color is red it means the bears are in momentum or the prices will continue to decrease and gray color means the market is consolidating.
This tool is made from moving averages and RSI.
You can place a buy order when the color is green, you can place a sell order when the color is red and if the color is gray do not trade.
Point and Figure (PnF) MomentumThis is live and non-repainting Point and Figure Chart Momentum tool. The script has it’s own P&F engine and not using integrated function of Trading View.
Point and Figure method is over 150 years old. It consist of columns that represent filtered price movements. Time is not a factor on P&F chart but as you can see with this script P&F chart created on time chart.
P&F chart provide several advantages, some of them are filtering insignificant price movements and noise, focusing on important price movements and making support/resistance levels much easier to identify.
Momentum indicator measures the rate of change or speed of price movement. It compares the current price with the previous price from a number of periods ago. By analysing the rate of change , possible to gauge the strength or “momentum”. By using this script we get Point and Figure chart momentum.
If you are new to Point & Figure Chart then you better get some information about it before using this tool. There are very good web sites and books. Please PM me if you need help about resources.
Options in the Script
Box size is one of the most important part of Point and Figure Charting. Chart price movement sensitivity is determined by the Point and Figure scale. Large box sizes see little movement across a specific price region, small box sizes see greater price movement on P&F chart. There are four different box scaling with this tool: Traditional, Percentage, Dynamic (ATR), or User-Defined
4 different methods for Box size can be used in this tool.
User Defined: The box size is set by user. A larger box size will result in more filtered price movements and fewer reversals. A smaller box size will result in less filtered price movements and more reversals.
ATR: Box size is dynamically calculated by using ATR, default period is 20.
Percentage: uses box sizes that are a fixed percentage of the stock's price. If percentage is 1 and stock’s price is $100 then box size will be $1
Traditional: uses a predefined table of price ranges to determine what the box size should be.
Price Range Box Size
Under 0.25 0.0625
0.25 to 1.00 0.125
1.00 to 5.00 0.25
5.00 to 20.00 0.50
20.00 to 100 1.0
100 to 200 2.0
200 to 500 4.0
500 to 1000 5.0
1000 to 25000 50.0
25000 and up 500.0
Default value is “ATR”, you may use one of these scaling method that suits your trading strategy.
If ATR or Percentage is chosen then there is rounding algorithm according to mintick value of the security. For example if mintick value is 0.001 and box size (ATR/Percentage) is 0.00124 then box size becomes 0.001.
And also while using dynamic box size (ATR or Percentage), box size changes only when closing price changed.
Reversal : It is the number of boxes required to change from a column of Xs to a column of Os or from a column of Os to a column of Xs. Default value is 3 (most used). For example if you choose reversal = 2 then you get the chart similar to Renko chart.
Source: Closing price or High-Low prices can be chosen as data source for P&F charting.
There is 2 options for P&F Momentum
Length: Length for the P&F Momentum, default value is 10
Display as: there are two options and can display as “Histogram” or “Line”
Momentum OscillatorThis is a heavily modified MACD to show the momentum of the market. There is a bollinger band with the source being set to MACD line to show the volatility of the momentum. The concept and settings came from Barry Burn's foundation course but I discovered that adding a bollinger band to macd line can show the squeeze and expansion of the momentum and that can be very helpful in conjunction with the whole system. If you switch to weekly chart and above, the settings automatically switches to those that Barry uses for none 1 to 3 ratio so you won't need to worry about it.
Magma MomentumThis is a simple and easy-to-read momentum indicator that can help you identify divergences and shifts in momentum.
A divergence is when price moves in one direction but the indicator moves in the opposite direction. This typically is a sign of price exhaustion and can indicate that price is about to reverse, at least momentarily.
Here is a comparison with RSI (relative strength index) and some examples of divergences.
Enjoy.
On Balance Volume Momentum + Relative StrengthA combination of "On Balance Volume (OBV)", "Volume Oscillator" and Relative Strength indicators.
"OBV Momentum" is a trend momentum indicator, that can be used to identify strong trends and also trend changes based on volume.
High positive values indicate strong volume on the buy side, high negative values indicate strong volume on the sell side.
An increasing OBV momentum indicates a strengthening buy trend or a weakening sell trend,
decvreasing OBV Momentum indicates a strenghening sell trend or weakening buy trend.
OBV Momentum is calculated by comparing a short vs. a long moving average and plotting the difference in volume.
OBV Momentum metric is absolute volume.
The OBV Momentum values are normalized in the interval.

Customization and Inputs
The Uptrick indicator offers a variety of user-defined settings tailored to fit different trading styles and strategies, enhancing its adaptability across various market conditions:
Rate of Change Length (rocLength) : This setting defines the period over which momentum is calculated. Shorter periods may be preferred by day traders who need to respond quickly to market changes, while longer periods could be better suited for position traders looking at more extended trends.
ATR Length (atrLength) : Adjusts the timeframe for assessing volatility. A shorter ATR length can help day traders manage the quick shifts in market volatility, whereas longer lengths might be more applicable for swing or position traders who deal with longer-term market movements.
Volume Flow Length (volumeFlowLength): Determines the analysis period for volume flow to identify buying or selling pressure. Day traders might opt for shorter periods to catch rapid volume changes, while longer periods could serve swing traders to understand the accumulation or distribution phases better.
Short EMA Length (shortEmaLength): Specifies the period for the short-term EMA, crucial for trend detection. Shorter lengths can aid day traders in spotting immediate trend shifts, whereas longer lengths might help swing traders in identifying more sustainable trend changes.
Long EMA Length (longEmaLength): Sets the period for the long-term EMA, which is useful for observing longer-term market trends. This setting is particularly valuable for position traders who need to align with the broader market direction.
Composite Signal Moving Average Length (maLength): This parameter sets the smoothing period for the composite signal's moving average, helping to reduce noise in the signal output. A shorter moving average length can be beneficial for day traders reacting to market conditions swiftly, while a longer length might help swing and position traders in smoothing out less significant fluctuations to focus on significant trends.
These customization options ensure that traders can fine-tune the Uptrick indicator to their specific trading needs, whether they are scanning for quick opportunities or analyzing more prolonged market trends.
### Functionality Details
The indicator operates through a sophisticated algorithm that integrates multiple market dimensions:
1. Momentum and Volatility Calculation : Combines ROC and ATR to gauge the market’s momentum and stability.
2. Volume and Trend Analysis : Integrates volume data with EMAs to provide a comprehensive view of current market trends and potential shifts.
3. Signal Composite : Each component is normalized and combined into a composite signal, offering traders a nuanced perspective on when to enter or exit trades.
The indicator performs its calculations as follows:
Momentum and Volatility Calculation:
roc = ta.roc(close, rocLength)
atr = ta.atr(atrLength)
Volume and Trend Analysis:
volumeFlow = ta.cum(volume) - ta.ema(ta.cum(volume), volumeFlowLength)
emaShort = ta.ema(close, shortEmaLength)
emaLong = ta.ema(close, longEmaLength)
emaDifference = emaShort - emaLong
Composite Signal Calculation:
Normalizes each component (ROC, ATR, volume flow, EMA difference) and combines them into a composite signal:
rocNorm = (roc - ta.sma(roc, rocLength)) / ta.stdev(roc, rocLength)
atrNorm = (atr - ta.sma(atr, atrLength)) / ta.stdev(atr, atrLength)
volumeFlowNorm = (volumeFlow - ta.sma(volumeFlow, volumeFlowLength)) / ta.stdev(volumeFlow, volumeFlowLength)
emaDiffNorm = (emaDifference - ta.sma(emaDifference, longEmaLength)) / ta.stdev(emaDifference, longEmaLength)
compositeSignal = (rocNorm + atrNorm + volumeFlowNorm + emaDiffNorm) / 4

Composite Momentum█ Introduction
The Composite Momentum Indicator is a tool we came across that we found to be useful at detecting implied tops and bottoms within quick market cycles. Its approach to analyzing momentum through a combination of moving averages and summation techniques makes it a useful addition to the range of available indicators on TradingView.
█ How It Works
This indicator operates by calculating the difference between two moving averages—one fast and one slow, which can be customized by the user. The difference between these two averages is then expressed as a percentage of the fast moving average, forming the core momentum value which is then smoothed with an Exponential Moving Average is applied. The smoothed momentum is then compared across periods to identify directional changes in direction
Furthermore, the script calculates the absolute differences between consecutive momentum values. These differences are used to determine periods of momentum acceleration or deceleration, aiming to establish potential reversals.
In addition to tracking momentum changes, the indicator sums positive and negative momentum changes separately over a user-defined period. This summation is intended to provide a clearer picture of the prevailing market bias—whether it’s leaning towards strength or weakness.
Finally, the summed-up values are normalized to a percentage scale. This normalization helps in identifying potential tops and bottoms by comparing the relative strength of the momentum within a given cycle.
█ Usage
This indicator is primarily useful for traders who focus on detecting quick cycle tops and bottoms. It provides a view of momentum shifts that can signal these extremes, though it’s important to use it in conjunction with other tools and market analysis techniques. Given its ability to highlight potential reversals, it may be of interest to those who seek to understand short-term market dynamics.
█ Disclaimer
This script was discovered without any information about its author or original intent but was nonetheless ported from its original format that is available publicly. It’s provided here for educational purposes and should not be considered a guaranteed method for market analysis. Users are encouraged to test and understand the indicator thoroughly before applying it in real trading scenarios.
