Overview

The Trend Speed Analyzer by Zeiierman is designed to measure the strength and speed of market trends, providing traders with actionable insights into momentum dynamics. By combining a dynamic moving average with wave and speed analysis, it visually highlights shifts in trend direction, market strength, and potential reversals. This tool is ideal for identifying breakout opportunities, gauging trend consistency, and understanding the dominance of bullish or bearish forces over various timeframes.

How It Works

The indicator employs a Dynamic Moving Average (DMA) enhanced with an Accelerator Factor, allowing it to adapt dynamically to market conditions. The DMA is responsive to price changes, making it suitable for both long-term trends and short-term momentum analysis.

Key components include:

Trend Speed Analysis:

Measures the speed of market movements, highlighting momentum shifts with visual cues.

Wave Analysis:

Tracks bullish and bearish wave sizes to determine market strength and bias.

Normalized Speed Values:

Ensures consistency across different market conditions by adjusting for volatility.

⚪ Average Wave and Max Wave

These metrics analyze the size of bullish and bearish waves over a specified Lookback Period:

Average Wave:

This represents the mean size of bullish and bearish movements, helping traders gauge overall market strength.

Max Wave:

Highlights the largest movements within the period, identifying peak momentum during trend surges.

⚪Current Wave Ratio

This feature compares the current wave's size against historical data:

Average Wave Ratio:

Indicates if the current momentum exceeds historical averages. A value above 1 suggests the trend is gaining strength.

Max Wave Ratio:

Shows whether the current wave surpasses previous peak movements, signaling potential breakouts or trend accelerations.

⚪Dominance

Dominance metrics reveal whether bulls or bears have controlled the market during the Lookback Period:

Average Dominance:

Compares the net difference between average bullish and bearish wave sizes.

Max Dominance:

Highlights which side had the stronger individual waves, indicating key power shifts in market dynamics.

Positive values suggest bullish dominance, while negative values point to bearish control. This helps traders confirm trend direction or anticipate reversals.

How to Use

Identify Trends:

Leverage the color-coded candlesticks and dynamic trend line to assess the overall market direction with clarity.

Monitor Momentum:

Use the Trend Speed histogram to track changes in momentum, identifying periods of acceleration or deceleration.

Analyze Waves:

Compare the sizes of bullish and bearish waves to identify the prevailing market bias and detect potential shifts in sentiment. Additionally, fluctuations in Current Wave ratio values should be monitored as early indicators of possible trend reversals.

Evaluate Dominance:

Utilize dominance metrics to confirm the strength and direction of the current trend.
