What's the secret sauce in the TREND Indicator

Let's take some random input indicator, be it a MOMO or a OPTIONS or a Open Interest or a EXHaustion or a Money Flow MOMO Indicator and decide how we want to interpret a reading.

Below you find our approach:


We look at an Indicator and observe the following:
  • Is it moving down (or up) = Trend <0 (>0)
  • How close is the current reading to a recent medium term extreme (call it Overbought or Oversold) and calculate a weighting based on that observation from 0% to 100%
We include the following Indicators in our TREND Indicator and give 50% weight to the MOMO and FLOW indicators and 50% to the Options and Option Open Interest ones.

Indicators taken into account:





And this is the RESULT:
