Using Floating Levels to Read FRAMA Trend Changes

Summary

This brief note describes a modified FRAMA indicator that adds floating levels to help identify trend direction. Its motivation is to avoid relying on the slope of FRAMA alone, which the author says can generate false signals, particularly when the fractal estimation uses a selected price input.

The suggested signal is a color change when price crosses the outer floating levels, presented as the default approach for using the indicator in a trending mode. The note gives no formulas, parameter guidance, charts, backtest, or performance evidence, and it does not define the levels in enough detail to reproduce the indicator from this text alone. The method is therefore a high-level indicator usage suggestion whose reliability and suitable settings remain unestablished here.

Key ideas

• Floating levels are added to FRAMA to help determine trend direction.
• The note cautions that FRAMA slope alone can produce false signals.
• A color change on a crossing of the outer levels is suggested for trending use.
• The document provides no testing results or detailed construction rules for the floating levels.
