Measuring AwesomeModPips Momentum with a Smoothed Rate of Change

Summary

Rate_AOModPips is a technical indicator that measures the smoothed rate of change in the AwesomeModPips indicator, itself based on the difference between two exponential moving averages. It requires AwesomeModPips and uses its short, long, and smoothing periods, plus an additional period to smooth the change between the current and previous readings.

The indicator’s sign reflects direction: positive values mean AwesomeModPips is rising, while negative values mean it is falling. Greater absolute readings are presented as indicating a stronger trend. The document gives no asset-specific rules for entries or exits, backtest results, or guidance on choosing input periods, so the indicator’s description alone does not establish whether it is useful as a standalone trading signal.

Key ideas

• The indicator smooths the change between consecutive AwesomeModPips readings.
• Positive values indicate that AwesomeModPips is increasing, while negative values indicate that it is decreasing.
• Larger absolute readings are described as indicating a stronger trend.
