Adaptive Trend Model (ATM)

The Adaptive Trend Model (ATM) is a trend-following indicator designed to visually identify market direction, trend strength, and potential transitions directly on the price chart.
By combining adaptive trend smoothing, quality-based filtering, and automatic parameter selection, ATM helps traders better understand when the market is directional, consolidating, or weakening.

The indicator is built to remain clean and intuitive, allowing traders to focus on price behavior while receiving clear contextual guidance about trend conditions.

🔹 USAGE

Adaptive Trend Model (ATM) assists traders in interpreting market structure through three primary scenarios:

Trend Expansion

When the Main Line (M) slopes clearly upward or downward and price aligns with it, the market is exhibiting directional strength.

Upward slope → bullish trend conditions

Downward slope → bearish trend conditions


This helps traders stay aligned with the dominant market direction and avoid trading against momentum.

Trend Transition

Changes in the slope of the Main Line, especially when combined with entry signals or micro-signals, may indicate a potential transition in market direction.
These moments are often useful for reassessing risk, tightening stops, or preparing for new setups as market conditions evolve.

Trend Consolidation

When the Main Line flattens and price oscillates closely around it, the indicator reflects reduced directional strength.
This typically corresponds to consolidation or range-bound market conditions, where trend-following performance is usually lower.



🔹 VISUAL INTERPRETATION

The indicator is plotted directly over price for fast and intuitive interpretation:

Main Line (M):
Represents the adaptive trend path. Its slope and distance relative to price provide a visual indication of trend strength and stability.

Candle Coloring (optional):
Green candles → bullish trend state
Red candles → bearish trend state

Background Zones (optional):
Light green → active bullish trend
Light red → active bearish trend

These visual elements are designed to enhance situational awareness while keeping the chart clean and readable.

🔹 SIGNALS & CONFIRMATION

ATM provides optional visual aids designed to support decision-making:

Entry Signals: Highlight moments when trend direction and quality align.
Break / Exit Signals: Indicate potential weakening or loss of trend conditions.
Micro Signals (Scouts): Early hints of strengthening momentum within an existing trend structure.

All signals are intended to complement price action analysis rather than replace it.

🔹 PRACTICAL APPLICATION

Traders commonly use Adaptive Trend Model (ATM) to:

• Confirm trend direction before entering trades
• Filter low-quality or choppy market conditions
• Align entries and exits with broader trend context
• Reduce noise through adaptive smoothing and quality-based filtering

ATM is suitable for multiple markets and timeframes, from intraday trading to higher-timeframe trend analysis.

🔹 SETTINGS OVERVIEW

📌 Core Parameters
Window & Length: Control trend responsiveness and smoothing behavior.
Quality Thresholds: Define how strict trend conditions must be before signals appear.
Mode Selector (Conservative / Balanced / Aggressive): Adjusts sensitivity and filtering strength while preserving the core methodology.

📌 Visual Controls
Toggle the Main Line, candle colors, background zones, labels, micro-signals, forecast line, and info panel independently.
Clean defaults ensure minimal chart clutter.

🔹 ADDITIONAL NOTES

Adaptive Trend Model (ATM) is designed to remain transparent, stable, and visually intuitive.
It does not rely on external data or opaque mechanisms, making it suitable for traders who value clarity, adaptability, and disciplined trend analysis.

This indicator works best when used alongside solid risk management and price action awareness.

🔹 MTF TREND LINES (M2 / M3 / M4)

ATM can optionally display up to three additional trend lines derived from the same Main Line logic (M), but calculated on higher or custom timeframes.

M2 / M3 / M4: Secondary adaptive trend paths (multi-timeframe overlays).
Toggle ON/OFF: Each line can be enabled independently.
Timeframe Selector: Each line has its own adjustable timeframe input.

How traders use them:

• Confirm trend alignment across multiple timeframes (confluence)
• Identify dynamic support and resistance zones around higher-timeframe trend structure
• Reduce noise by using higher-timeframe trend context while trading lower timeframe setups

Note: These lines are visual-only overlays and do not change the entry or exit logic of ATM. They are intended to provide higher-timeframe context, not additional signals.
