Force Index Divergence Signals with Candlestick Confirmation

Summary

This indicator description presents a semaphore-style trading signal based on divergence between fast and slow Force Index oscillators. The divergence is evaluated using extreme points from the most recent five bars, and a signal is produced only when the divergence coincides with a suitable candlestick combination. The method therefore combines oscillator comparison with price-bar confirmation rather than relying on either condition alone.

The document names the components of the signal rule but provides no parameter details for the oscillator speeds, no definition of the required candlestick patterns, and no examples of actual trades or performance results. It offers no backtest, market-specific guidance, or discussion of false signals and risk controls. The description is consequently useful as a concise outline of an indicator concept, but it is not enough to assess its reliability or reproduce all of its decision rules without the accompanying figures or implementation.

Key ideas

• The signal compares divergence between fast and slow Force Index oscillators.
• Oscillator extremes are assessed over the latest five bars.
• A divergence must coincide with a qualifying candlestick combination to trigger a signal.
• The description gives no performance evidence or full definition of the candle rules.
