Didi Index: Three Moving Averages for Reversal Signals

Summary

The Didi Index is described as a moving-average indicator intended to help identify potential reversal points. It uses three moving averages, including periods of 8 and 20, displayed around a center line at zero. A signal feature called a “needle” appears when the averages converge near that line.

The document offers a qualitative explanation only. It gives no entry or exit rules, backtest results, or guidance for choosing the third average period. It recommends using the indicator on more liquid assets, but does not explain how liquidity affects its signals. Traders would need to define and test a complete strategy before relying on the indicator.

Key ideas

• The indicator displays three moving averages around a zero center line.
• The document specifies averages with periods of 8 and 20, alongside a third unspecified period.
• A potential reversal cue occurs when the averages converge near the center line.
• The document recommends the indicator for more liquid assets but provides no performance evidence.
