89WMA Trend Aktivator: ATR-Banded Trend Reversals
Summary
The 89WMA Trend Aktivator is described as a standalone trend-following indicator with behavior similar to Supertrend. It begins with a weighted moving average, then derives two offset levels from shifted versions of that average. An average true range adjustment expands the upper and lower levels, and the indicator changes trend state when price highs or lows cross the prior level. The active line is colored according to the trend direction.
The listing supplies the indicator logic and default settings, including an 89-period weighted average and a 14-period ATR. It also describes how the levels are carried forward during a trend and reset when direction changes. No market examples, entry or exit guidance beyond the reversal condition, or performance results are included. These defaults and rules are implementation details, not evidence that the indicator is profitable or suitable across instruments and timeframes.
Key ideas
- The indicator uses a weighted moving average as the basis for its trend levels.
- ATR offsets create upper and lower thresholds around shifted moving-average values.
- A high or low crossing the prior threshold changes the trend state.
- The displayed line follows the active threshold and uses color to indicate direction.
- The listing gives default settings but no performance validation or broader parameter guidance.
