Trend Detector [victhoreb]
Trend Detector is a streamlined indicator that uses the Pearson correlation coefficient between the average price and time to determine market trends. It measures how closely price movement follows the progression of time over a user-defined period, providing a clear gauge of trend direction on a scale from -1 to 1.
How It Works:
The indicator calculates the correlation between price and time. A positive correlation means that as time advances, the price generally rises—signaling an uptrend. Conversely, a negative correlation indicates that the price tends to fall over time, highlighting a downtrend.
With its simple yet effective approach, Trend Detector offers traders an immediate visual and quantitative insight into prevailing market trends.
