Classic Dual Momentum – 12-Month Absolute Momentum - Antonacci
This indicator calculates the 12-month absolute momentum exactly as described in Gary Antonacci’s Dual Momentum framework.
It automatically adjusts the lookback period based on the chart’s timeframe:
Daily chart: 252 bars
Weekly chart: 52 bars
Monthly chart: 12 bars
Other timeframes: Estimated automatically using bar time difference
The script computes the 12-month rate of return and displays it as a color-coded column plot:
Green: Positive 12-month momentum
Red: Negative 12-month momentum
A customizable moving average is included to help visualize longer-term trends in the momentum signal.
How It’s Used (from Dual Momentum theory)
This indicator provides the absolute momentum filter used in classic Dual Momentum strategies:
If the 12-month return of an asset is above the risk-free return → trend is positive
If it is below the risk-free return → trend is negative
This absolute momentum check is a key component of the Global Equities Momentum (GEM) model presented in Gary Antonacci’s book Dual Momentum Investing.
Why This Indicator Exists
It gives traders a clean, accurate way to visualize the 12-month trend strength across any timeframe, without the distortions caused by bar length differences.
