This indicator was designed for finding good entries for scalping the market
How does it work: - It works on a basis of price running out of its bands and its return - Once the price is out of bands, the system starts scanning for two patterns --> sudden price reversion and losing of momentum. - If any of these patterns occur, the indicator waits for a confirmation bar and after that it gives you a signal that the price could be moving upwards or downwards. - These signals are represented by a label and sudden price change of the current bar - Also you will see a dotted line above or below the bar that can be used as a potential Stop Loss level
Idea behind the trigger patterns: Sudden price reversion - Idea behind this pattern is that the price has a higher success of reversion if there is a fast change of its momentum. This pattern is recognized by measuring the divergence between prior and current price change - The divergence is measured as correlation between shorter-term price action and longer-term price action. If the correlation is negative and statistically significant, it is counted as a reversion signal (= shorter-time price action goes in the opposite direction of longer-term price action)
Losing of momentum - The idea behind this pattern is that once there is no strong momentum, there is lower probability of a breakout and start of strong trend - It is calculated as a difference between current price and previous price. If the difference is minimal, it is taken as a signal that the price lost its momentum and therefore there is higher chance of reversion.
When to use: - This indicator works well in ranging markets, but slightly less well in trending markets. Therefore look for sideways markets and use the indicator there - Price action patterns work really well with this indicator, such as Support and Resistance levels, double Tops and Bottoms,...
Inputs: - This indicator has only one input and that is "Analysis Period". This input declares how many bars and going to be used when finding the patterns of possible price reversion
