I found another really cool example here - this one showing how well the CDV "held on" to a particular trend concept, while a moving average would break down (considerably). You can see the trend moved from touching a 9 SMA, then broke up to a 20, and finally right up to a 50 all within a short...

PS Am I reading you right in the way I applied it to the chart? I wasn't super clear, that's just what I noticed on my chart in this case after using it for literally 1 min.. hah.

Ok! I happened to be staring at this chart and added the CDV and saw a pretty clear early indicator... by the time the price actually tested the trend line the CDV was way out of whack, whereas the previous price touches corresponded with the CDV trend. As shown in attachment... This could be...

@Metamega - thanks for sharing. Is this the pullback in example 2 (attached)?

On a related note, I have just been noticing here that RSI often offers up a "support" or "resistance" level around the same level for 2 or more pullbacks... (screen capture attached). RSI is a strength indicator, but a bit jumpy to be used to gauge trend strength on its own. Maybe there is...

Thanks Daniel! Could you elaborate on that relationship a bit, and what you like to see happen to confirm the price isn't going to obliterate an MA (eg)? I'm not familiar with this indicator and just looking at it for the first time here.

Hi Trdes, hopefully I was explaining myself properly in my question. Are you proposing "mapping" the output of an indicator suited to measure trend strength indicator to the output of an indicator suited to measure short term price variations? Eg a range of "20-30" on indicator A would...

Does anyone know of a good indicator that "normalizes" pullback signals based on the context of the strength of the trend they occur in? I've noticed that trend strength and pullback depth are often inversely proportional to one another. There must be a way to measure this relationship and...
