A trend follower built to sit out the chop that bleeds plain moving-average-cross systems dry. The chart shows two familiar EMAs, but the colored zone between them is not the crossover: it's the verdict of a multi-factor engine that scores momentum, volume, divergence, and trend context together.
What you see on the chart
- A fast EMA (21, teal) and slow EMA (55, orange): visual reference only.
- The zone between them, colored by the engine: mint-green when conditions favor bulls, orange when they favor bears, and gray when the engine refuses to pick a side; that gray is the whipsaw protection.
- An optional info table with the current state, net score, factor breakdown, ADX, and bars since the last flip; optional flip triangles and background tint.
How to read it
The engine blends RSI (including multi-timeframe alignment), volume behavior, divergence, and trend context into one signed score from −100 to +100, then applies hysteresis, a flip cooldown, and a trend lock so one noisy candle can't flip the verdict. Read it as your directional backdrop: take reversion buys when the zone is green or gray, and demand more evidence when it's orange. Optional reversion-target lines project the price where a faster timeframe would reach oversold/overbought: natural pullback targets within the trend.
Key settings
- Decision profile: Lead (earlier, more flips), Balanced (default), or Confirm (later, fewer flips). This is the one dial most users touch.
- EMA lengths, info table, flip markers, background tint, and reversion targets. The deeper engine weights ship locked to tuned defaults.
