Download script
This tool is designed as a visual aid for traders who monitor the market on shorter timeframes, specifically aimed at identifying momentum shifts. It functions by analyzing the Relative Strength Index (RSI)—a standard technical indicator that measures the speed and change of price movements—to detect specific trends in the market's behavior.
How it Works
The script continuously scans historical price data to look for "streaks" in the RSI values. Rather than just looking at a single moment in time, it evaluates a sequence of eight consecutive data points to ensure that a trend is consistent and not just a minor fluctuation.
- Identifying Upward Momentum: The tool looks for instances where the RSI value is steadily increasing over five consecutive steps. When it detects this sustained rise, it places an Up Arrow on the chart at the highest point of that price candle, signaling strong bullish momentum.
- Identifying Downward Momentum: Conversely, the tool scans for instances where the RSI value is steadily decreasing over five consecutive steps. When this continuous drop is confirmed, it places a Down Arrow at the lowest point of the candle, signaling strong bearish momentum.
Key Features for Traders
- Trend Confirmation: By requiring a sequence of five consecutive movements (rather than just one), the logic helps filter out "market noise," aiming to highlight more reliable trend shifts.
- Visual Clarity: The script automatically plots these signals directly on your main chart window, allowing you to see potential entry or exit points instantly without having to manually interpret complex RSI waves.
- Historical Analysis: The tool processes a significant amount of historical data (starting from 100 bars back) so that you can see how the momentum behaved in past sessions, helping you gauge the reliability of the signals in different market conditions.
