Blau Candlestick Momentum Indicator and Its Colored Trend Signals

Summary

This short description presents BlauCMomentum, a candlestick momentum indicator based on William Blau’s book on momentum, direction, and divergence. It says the indicator displays signals as colored signs and represents trend with color, offering a visual way to interpret momentum and direction. The entry identifies a supporting smoothing-algorithm library required by the implementation and points to a separate explanation of the library’s intermediate price-series calculations.

The document provides no equations, parameter settings, sample charts, trading rules, or performance evidence. It therefore explains the indicator’s general purpose and display, but not how to interpret particular colors, combine the signal with other evidence, or use it in a complete strategy. The indicator’s name and description connect it to momentum analysis; the source text does not establish that its signals forecast returns or work consistently across instruments or market conditions.

Key ideas

• BlauCMomentum is a candlestick momentum indicator based on William Blau’s work.
• It presents signals using colored signs and displays trend through color.
• The implementation depends on a smoothing-algorithm library for intermediate calculations.
• The description gives no formulas, signal rules, or performance results.
