Accumulation/DistributionAccumulation/Distribution explains when the big players buy or sell, according to Wyckoff.
I added some colors to make it more visibly, to get a hint when (not) to invest.
A/D is a lagging indicator.
When the MA is above A/D line, this should reflect distribution time, and big players are selling.
The oppsite is when MA is below the A/D line, then this should be an accumulation phase, and big players are buying.
For example, my preference is a TEMA20 for crypto, this gives me good results.
But I added a bunch of moving averages to choose from.
Depending on preferences/marked you can choose a moving average, set its length, and you can choose all the colors too.
I recommend the Volume indicator to setup the MA line, and this will get much better results!
I hope this script will help some people to do some better decisions.
And I am pleased to get some advice to make this script even better!
There is only one similar-sounding script in the public section.
Kudos go to jbneto with his Accum/ Dist + 200 EMA which gave me the inspiration.
It has a EMA200, and its focus is on the daily pivot price.

Accumulation/Distribution Level (ADL) [Cyrus c|:D]This indicator shows Accumulation/Distribution level which can be used for confirming trends or reversals (via divergence). It is an alternative to Chaikin's Accumulation/Distribution Line (ADL) and On Balance Volume (OBV) indicators. It can also replicate PVT and OBV via options in the input menu.
Here is a comparison of four related indicators:
OBV is too simple and has serious flaws as explained in PVT's wiki.
Chaikin's ADL is a broken indicator as can be seen in the chart below:
A/D Level addresses the flaws in these two indicators. It simply sums up portions of the volume that contributes to price change. These portions are visualized in dark green and red on "Accumulation/Distribution Volume (ADV)" indicator. This can also be achieved by ADV indicator if you are nerd enough.
PS: There is Williams A/D as well which is also a broken indicator.
Accumulation Phase DetectorClean Accumulation Phase Indicator — Description
This TradingView indicator visually identifies the Accumulation Phase in price action, based on the Wyckoff methodology and volume-price analysis. The Accumulation Phase is where insiders or "smart money" gradually build positions before a significant price breakout.
Key Features:
Range Detection: The indicator calculates a price range over a configurable period (Range Length). It marks this range on the chart with red horizontal lines representing support and resistance.
Volume Spike Identification: It detects unusually high volume relative to the average volume over the same period (Volume Spike Multiplier). These spikes highlight potential insider buying activity.
Accumulation Phase Highlighting: When price action remains within the detected range and volume spikes occur, the indicator considers the market to be in an accumulation phase. Volume bars during this phase are colored blue for easy visualization.
Campaign Start & End Labels: The indicator places a "Campaign starts" label at the beginning of the accumulation phase and a "Campaign ends - warehouse full" label when the accumulation ends. This mimics the idea that insiders fill their “warehouses” before a breakout.
Breakout Detection: Once accumulation ends, the indicator monitors for a price breakout above the resistance level and places a "Breakout" label at the breakout bar.
How to Use:
Adjust the Range Length and Volume Spike Multiplier inputs to suit the timeframe and instrument you’re analyzing.
Watch for the blue volume bars within the red range lines to identify the accumulation phase.
Use the campaign labels to identify when the phase starts and ends.
Watch for the breakout label as a potential entry signal.
Accumulation/Distribution Money Flow v1.0This indicator is intended to measure selling and buying pressure, calculates accumulation/distribution levels and suggests current trend intensity and direction.
Core calculations are based on open source script by cI8DH which was not updated ever since 2018. Also, it implements the technique to avoid price gaps issues as described in Twiggs® Money Flow .
The indicator can plot calculated A/D line, a smoothed A/D line and another smoother derivative from the smoothed line which serves as a signal line. By implementing crossovers detection between two lines and also measuring distance between them it plots the histogram of the difference and can also color chart bars accordingly.
You can also use settings to factor in price and/or volume into calculations.
Three options for visual color representation are available.
1) Simple color bars
In this case bars are colored in red and green by default, whereas green indicates positive distance between smoothed A/D line and signal line (upward movement), and red indicated negative distance (downward movement).
2) 4-color scheme
In this case pale green and pale red colors are added, whereas pale red used when the histogram is positive and A/D + signal lines are below zero lines (start of upward movement from lower levels), and pale green is where histogram is negative and both A/D and signal lines are above zero line (start of downward movement from top levels). Bright red and green colors indicate strong movement where the position of A/D + signal lines correspond to positive and.or negative histogram values. This option allows to visually track trend intensity more precisely.
3) Gradient bars color
In this scheme the candles are colored using gradient of either red or green color depending on the intensity and direction of the trend. For that color scheme you must specify the lookback parameter indicating number of bars back to determine highest/lowest values.
Accumulation Swing Index The Accumulation Swing Index is a cumulative total of the Swing Index.
The Accumulation Swing Index was developed by Welles Wilder.
The SwingIndex function was developed to help cut through the maze of
Open, High, Low and Close prices to indicate the real strength and direction
of the market. The Swing Index function looks at the Open, High, Low and
Close values for a two-bar period. The theory is that there are four cross-bar
and one intra-bar comparisons that are strong indicators of an up or down day.
The Swing Index returns a number between -100 and 100. If the factors point toward
an up day, then the function value will be positive and vice versa. In this way,
the Swing Index gives us definite short-term swing points, and it can be used to
supplement other methods as a breakout indicator. A breakout is indicated when the
value of the Accumulation Swing Index (ASI) exceeds the ASI value on the day when a
previous significant High Swing Point was made. A downside breakout is indicated when
the value of the ASI drops below the ASI value on a day when a previous significant
low swing point was made.
Since only futures have a relative daily limit value, this function only makes sense
when applied to a futures contract. If you use this function and it only plots a zero
flat line, check the Daily Limit value.

Mr.J -- Accumulation Distribution OscillatorEdit: More examples in comments, TV doesn't like to publish with split charts ;)
As a popular volume indicator, Accumulation Distribution Oscillator makes it easy and simple to interpret amplitude changes in the accumulation distribution. Either an observed peak in positive or negative amplitude can be used to snipe high/low points or a crossover from a positive number to a negative amplitude can indicate the change of Accumulation to Distribution.
Hidden divergences can also be found by looking for differences in the price/volume amplitude, similar to OBV divergence rules.
Breakout Accumulation/DistributionBasic modification of my SFP Momentum Indicator showing accumulation/distribution patterns based on breakouts above previous anchor points.
Candles are colored based on whether accumulation or distribution was last.
Best if used at HTF then confirmed at LTF.
+ Accumulation/DistributionThis is an updated version (with lots of extras added) of the Accumulation/Distribution indicator coded by @Cl8DH.
You can read about what he says about his indicator, and how to use it, here:
So, from that, what have I done?
I added a moving average (of which there are many types to choose from) so that you can use this as a "two lines cross" indicator, as well as a "mid-line cross" indicator.
I added Bollinger Bands (primarily for when "range" is turned off, but if you want to use the Bands with it in fixed range mode too, that's fine. You do you.).
I added candle coloring for both ways of using this indicator:
In rangebound mode there is overbought and oversold coloring, as well as bullish (ADP above the MA and median) and bearish (ADP below the MA and median), and neutral (ADP is above the MA but below the median, or below the MA and above the median). With range turned off there is no overbought or oversold of course. Above the MA and median is bullish, below both is bearish, and neutral covers that grey area where it's neither one nor the other.
The indicator itself is also colored in the same way the candles are. The MA and BBands are biased colored as well (green/red).
Alerts for pretty much every condition imaginable.
Please note in the image above the indicator is pretty gaudy. I don't use it like that, and you can turn a lot of that stuff off (lines, shading, etc.). That is just the default settings.
Like I said, I think Bollinger Bands make most sense if you have it set to range off, but they could be useful either way. Depends on you, the trader.
The candle color is 100% based on the moving average, so if you are using the BBands, set your MA to the default 20 SMA because that's what BBands use for the basis. If you just turn off the MA, whatever it is set to the indicator will still see that and use it (unless you turn off candle colors) to color the candles.
Above is the same image, but just with range turned off, and the Bollinger Bands turned off.
That's all. Hope you like this! It's becoming a favorite of mine, and a lot of what I've implemented here will be added to my previously released indicators, as well as any new ones.
Accumulation Momentum IndicatorEveryone wants to be in a trend, I think this indicator does a great job at showing that key momentum that traders try and capitalize on everyday. I used a Stochastic Momentum Indicator (SMI) indicator. It's a lot like a slower MACD which allows me to capitalize on changing momentum. My goal was to make an indicator that was able to use a weighted mean of many accumulation/momentum indicators. This would give me a well rounded look to really see what direction the momentum and volume is heading.
I did some research on some of the best Accumulation and Momentum Indicators. I landed on 4.
The Accumulation Distribution line which measures the cumulative flow of money in or out of a security. It helps show how quickly money is going in and out of a commodity. The line moving up quickly indicates fast Accumulation while the A/C line is moving down quickly is shows falling Distribution. This can show the momentum and accumulation of a commodity in short and long term based off of Volume.
The On Balance Volume, OBV is a combination of Price Movement and Volume. If price closes higher then the previous bar volume is added while if the price closes lower volume is subtracted. This gives us an overall tally of whether volume is increasing with price or slowing down the momentum in the direction of the current trend. This gives us the ability to see if volume is supporting the price increasing (beginning/middle of a trend) or price is slowing down even though it is still heading in the direction of the current trend (signaling the end of the current trend).
The Force Index, this indicator measures the overall strength of the price movements. It does this by a calculation of price and volume. The close of the current bar subtracted by the previous multiplied by the volume. The result gives us either strong upward or downward motion. This adds magnitude to the overall movement/momentum of the indicator.
Lastly but most certainly not least is the Momentum indicator, (Price Momentum) a simple indicator that shows you the difference between the current close price and the close price from a specified period ago (Most commonly 14 periods/bars ago). Having this indicator is a must because it shows the speed at which price is accelerating or decelerating.
These 4 indicators together help round out the current volume, price movements, accumulation, and momentum of the current market. Since these indicators all have different scales and calculations I had to Normalize the Values to a 0-100 scale. This gives us 1 line and a much more readable easy to understand indicator. After they were normalized I gave them a weighted average that you can control. So lets say you cared more about the Force Index and the OBV rather then the Momentum and the Accumulation Distribution indicators, you would be able to give them more weight in the overall calculation as well as 0 out those you don't even want involved.
I hope the flexibility and the combination of 4 strong Accumulation Momentum indicators helps you better gauge the direction a commodity might head. The way it's used is when the Accumulation Momentum line is Above 50 buying pressure is stronger then selling pressure. An Accumulation Momentum line Below 50 suggests that distribution is more dominant in the current market. This indicator combines four different methods of analyzing price and volume to give you a single composite momentum score, making it easier to visualize when a commodity is being accumulated or distributed and how quickly this process is happening. It helps you track market sentiment based on both price movement and volume, with a clear, visual representation of buying and selling pressure.
Please let me know what you think and how you think I might be able to improve the script. Enjoy!
Accumulation-Distribution CandlesThis structural visualization tool maps each candle through the lens of Effort vs. Result, blending Volume, Range, and closing bias into a normalized pressure score. Candle bodies are dynamically color-coded using a five-tier system—from heavy accumulation to heavy distribution—revealing where energy is building, dispersing, or neutral. This helps to visually isolate Markup, Markdown, Re-accumulation, and Distribution at a glance.
The indicator calculates a strength score by multiplying price result (close minus open) by effort (volume or price range), smoothing this raw value using a Fibonacci-based EMA. (34 for standard, 55 for crypto; the higher crypto value acknowledges that 24/7 trading offers more hours per week or month than trad markets.) The result is standardized against its rolling deviation and clamped to a range. This score determines the visual tier:
• 💙 Dark Blue = heavy Accumulation (strong upward result on strong effort)
• 🩵 Pale Blue = mild Accumulation
• 🌚 Gray = neutral (low conviction or balance)
• 💛 Pale Yellow = mild Distribution
• 🧡 Deep Yellow = heavy Distribution (strong downward result on strong effort)
The tool is optimized for the 1D chart, where Wyckoff phases are most clearly expressed. However, it adapts well to lower timeframes when used selectively. Traders may hide the body coloring and enable only zone highlighting to preserve other candle overlays such as SUPeR TReND 2.718, which offers directional clarity and trend duration. This combination is especially useful on intraday charts (15m–1H) where microstructure matters but visual clutter must be avoided.
When used alongside other Volume overlays (such as the OBVX Conviction Bias) or Volatility indicators (such as the Asymmetric Turbulence Ribbon (ATR)), this indicator adds confluence to directional setups by contextualizing pressure with Volatility. For example: compression zones marked by ATR may align with persistent pale blue candles—indicating quiet Accumulation before expansion.
Optional Overlays:
Normally ON -
• 📌 Pin Bars , filtered by volume, to isolate wick-dominant reversals from key zones
• 💪🏻 Strong-Body Candles — fuchsia candles w/ high body-to-range ratio reflect conviction
• 🧯 Wick Absorption Candles — red candles w/ long wicks and low closing strength indicate failed pushes or absorbed breakouts
• 🟦/🟧 Zone Highlighting for candles above a defined Accumulation/Distribution threshold
Normally OFF -
• 🔺 Fractals (5-bar) to map swing pivots by underlying pressure tier (normally OFF)
• 🟥/🟩 Engulfing patterns, filtered by directional conviction (normally OFF)
The Pin Bar strategy benefits most from the zone logic—when a bullish pin bar appears in an Accumulation zone (esp. pale or dark blue), and Volume exceeds its rolling average, it may mark a spring or failed breakdown. Conversely, bearish pins in Distribution zones can mark rejection or resistance.
This is not a signal engine—it’s a narrative filter designed to slot cleanly into a multi-layered workflow of visual structure and informed execution. Use it to identify bias and phase. Then deploy trade triggers from tools like SUPeR TReND 2.718, or the liquidity flows shown the The Silver Lining or the AltSeasonality - MTF indicators, for example. The candle colors tell you who’s in control—the other tools tell you when to act.
Accumulation/Distribution Bands & Signals (BTC, 1D, BITSTAMP) This is an accumulation/distribution indicator for BTC/USD (D) based on variations of 1400D and 120D moving averages and logarithmic regression. Yellow plot signals Long Term Accumulation, which is based on 1400D (200W) ALMA, orange plot signals Mid Term Accumulation and is based on 120D ALMA, and finally the red plot signals Long Term Distribution that's based on log regression. It should be noted that for red plot to work BTC 1D BITSTAMP graph must be used, because the function of the logarithmic regression was modified according to the x axis of the BITSTAMP data.
Signal bands have different coefficients; long term accumulation (yellow) and and the log regression (red) plots have the highest coefficients and mid term accumulation (orange) has the lowest coefficients. Coefficients are 6x, 3x and 1.5x for the red (sell) and yellow (buy) plots and 1x, 2x and 3x for the orange (buy) plot. Selling coefficient for the yellow and the orange plots are respectively 2x and 1x. Buy and sell signals are summed up accordingly and plotted at the top of the highest band.

Accumulation/Distribution Volume (ADV) [cI8DH]This is the simplified and optimized version of my original ADV indicator. It shows both regular volume bars and the accumulated/distributed (A/D) portion of them. The equation is elegant and intuitive. It calculates candle body to candle height ratio and multiplies it by volume: volume*(close-open)/(high-low). This is the building block of my three other indicators, ADL, ADP and ADMF.
- The volume bars has two shades of green and red. The dark shade shows amount of A/D and the light shade shows total volume (what you see on a regular volume indicator).
When money volume is enabled, volume is multiplied by price. As you can see in the chart below, trade volume in terms of USD was growing over the past years.
- Blue line is the moving average of A/D and the orange line is for total volume. When "Baseline Chart" option is enabled, this moving average is identical to ADMF indicator which can be a powerful indicator for assessing buy/sell pressure as well as money flow and volume divergences. You can turn off volume bars (from style menu) for better visibility or you can use the below indicators.
Please note that ADMF is now available as a part of ADP indicator as well and I recommend using the latter since ADP can also replace CMF and MFI indicators.
- If you change the aggregation to cumulative (while having money volume disabled), the gray line becomes identical to On Balance Volume (OBV) and the blue line identical to my ADL indicator. The latter I would argue is more accurate than Chaikin's ADL, William's A/D and OBV.
Continuous Accumulation Strategy [DCA] v9🇬🇧 English: Continuous Accumulation Strategy v9.4
This script is a full-featured strategy designed to backtest the "Buy the Dip" or "Dollar Cost Averaging" (DCA) philosophy. Its core feature is the Dynamic Peak Detection logic, which solves the "lock-in" problem of previous versions. Instead of getting stuck on an old high, the strategy constantly adapts to the market by referencing the most recent peak.
Key Features
* Dynamic Peak Detection: You define the "Peak Lookback Period." For example, on a Daily chart, setting it to `5` references the peak of the last business week.
* Stable Order Management: The strategy consistently uses a fixed cash amount (e.g., $100) for each entry, which prevents any runtime errors related to negative equity.
* Publishing-Ready: To meet TradingView's requirement for a backtest report, this strategy executes a symbolic, one-time "dummy trade" (one buy and one sell) at the very beginning of the test period. This first trade should be ignored when analyzing performance , as its only purpose is to enable publication.
How It Works
The main logic follows an adaptive cycle: Find Dynamic Peak -> Wait for a Drop -> Buy on Crossover -> Repeat.
1. Finds the Dynamic Peak: On every bar, it identifies the highest price within your defined lookback period.
2. Calculates the Drop: It constantly calculates the percentage drop from this moving peak.
3. Executes an Entry: The moment the price crosses below a target drop percentage, it executes a buy order.
4. Continuously Adapts: As the price moves, the dynamic peak is constantly updated, meaning the strategy never gets locked and is always ready for the next opportunity.
How to Use This Strategy
* Focus on the Strategy Tester: After adding it to the chart, analyze the Equity Curve, Net Profit, and Max Drawdown to see how this accumulation philosophy would have performed on your favorite asset.
* Optimize Parameters: Adjust the "Peak Lookback Period" and "Drop Percentages" to fit the volatility of the asset you are testing.
This is a tool for testing and analyzing a "buy and accumulate" philosophy. Its main logic does not generate sell signals.
Accumulation/Distribution %This script takes the signal from the Accumulation Distribution indicator invented by Larry Williams and normalizes it such that it becomes an oscillator about a zero line as described by John Bollinger in his book Bollinger on Bollinger Bands . The purpose of the indicator is to serve as a volume-based confirmation of signals given by other indicators, typically Bollinger Bands paired with a momentum indicator . In the example shown, Bollinger Bands are paired with Bollinger Bands %B and the Bollinger Bands %B indicator is interpreted similar to the Relative Strength Index ( RSI ) which is a momentum indicator .
The AD% indicator is colorized such that positive readings are green and negative readings are red. The readings become darker when approaching the zero line. The colorization is also displayed on the price chart. The chart type needs to be set to "bars" for price colorization to work properly.
The formula for this indicator is presented in the John Bollinger book as follows:
10-day sum of /10-sum of volume
How to use (my take on a strategy from the book):
1. Look for %B readings that are oversold or overbought (less than 0.00 or greater than 1.00)
2. Check for bearish divergence or bullish convergence of price and %B as shown on the chart
3. Verify divergence or convergence with AD%
4. Note previous trending/crossover behavior of AD% and %B and compare to situation being analyzed
5. A conservative trader may consider buying/selling on a close beyond the 20-day moving average and an AD% zero line crossover (color change)
6. An aggressive trader may consider buying/selling on a color change alone, on a breakdown of %B, or some other signal(s).
Securities behave differently from one another and this strategy doesn't work for all of them. As with any strategy, check past performance to make sure this approach is a good fit. Bandwidth ( volatility ) squeeze is another strategy which seems to work well for this security. For that reason, it was used to demonstrate buy signals, but squeezes aren't always so predictable. AD% may be useful for determining which direction a squeeze will resolve itself, as was the case here. Further information on volatility squeeze trading can be found in the John Bollinger book Bollinger on Bollinger Bands or online.
The default TradingView Accumulation Distribution indicator does not incorporate opening price. The formula used for this indicator does, so there are multiple versions of the A/D formula.
Despite the buy signal indicated, I'm not going long Hecla Mining here and I don't recommend it. I'd need to do further DD before doing so.
Please feel free to ask questions.
Accumulation/Distribution Open Interest Money Flow Hi, this script is the version of Accumulation / Distribution Money Flow (ADMF) that uses Open Interes ts in the required markets instead of Volume.
Can be set from the menu. (Futures/Others)
NOTE: I only modified this script.
The original script belongs to cl8DH.
Original of the script:
I think it will make a difference in the future and commodity markets.
Since the system uses CFTC data, use only for 1W timeframe.
With my best regards..
Accumulation/Distribution VolumeThis is a simple yet powerful indicator that can replace volume, Money Flow, Chaikin Money Flow, Price Volume Trend (PVT), Accumulation/Distribution Line (ADL), On Balance Volume (OBV).
When "Baseline Chart" option is disabled, it looks similar to regular volume. The volume bars has two shades of green and red. The dark shade shows amount of accumulation and the light shade shows total volume (what you see on a regular volume indicator). Blue line is the moving average (or cumulative total) of A/D and the gray line is for total volume.
When money volume is enabled, volume it multiplied by price. As you can see in the chart below, trade volume in terms of USD was declining after ATH. This is not the case in regular volume chart which shows instrument volume (chart above).
In Baseline view, the aggregation method you choose can turn it into different indicators. With EMA/SMA aggregation, blue and gray line shows buy/sell pressure. At 0, there is not buy or sell pressure.
If you turn off volume bars (from style menu), it gives you a reliable indicator to measure divergence. This should be more reliable than most other range-bound indicators (i.e. RSI, MFI, CMF). I will publish a TA about correctly measuring divergence (it's a must read even if you are a pro trader). Make sure that the length is set to a large number on smaller TFs such as 4h.
For following results, set aggregation to cumulative and turn off money volume:
When wick weight=0, the GRAY line is identical to OBV indicator.
When normalized by spread and wick weight=10, the BLUE line is identical to ADL (improved by true range).
When normalized by previous bar price, wick weight=0, the BLUE line is identical to PVT.
How I use this indicator:
- Baseline chart, replaced my regular volume indicator
- Mostly 4h TF for divergence
- EMA aggregation (and occasional cumulative aggregation) with length above 50. I change the length to 100 and 200 for confirmation.
- Wick weight=0 or max 2.
With this indicator, you can learn how different indicators are built and how they are different from each other. I will publish a TA to explain more about different indicators and their pros and cons.
I will publish this indicator without volume bars and additional options to make it range bound.
Accumulation Stage Identifier and Strategy around for TradingIn the psychology of trading at any market condition, there are four stage usually occurs on any tickers.
Stage 1 -> Neglect phase or consolidation phase
It occurs when the company does not produce the expected result and waiting for next result.
It can extend for days, weeks, months and years. Never give entry at this stage though that blue-chip told to be cheaper in price.
Stage 2 -> Accumulation
It occurs when the company's earning and sales consistently grows.
It can extend for days, weeks, months but should not expect the continues increase in price, as there will be potential pull-back which can be considered as opportunity to accumulate.
If the company fundamental is good, just give some space at the time of pullback.
Most of the time, the pullback volume will be low to compare to volume at the time of increase.
Usually, the stock that is going through accumulation stage will definitely trade above 200SMA and short term MA will be greater than long term moving average.
Continues the highest high and highest low along with volume.
Stage 3 -> Distribution
It occurs when the company's earning and sales stagnated due to certain reason.
It can extend for days, weeks while the price and volume highly volatile.
High volume while the price low
Typically, the stock that is going through distribution stage will certainly trade below 200SMA and short term MA will be lesser than long term moving average.
Continues the lowest high and lowest low along with volume.
Stage 4 -> Capitalization
Price reaches the 52W low while volume spikes on big down.
In each stage, the price & volume are perfect indicator to highlight the situation and the trader with proper discipline and patients can certainly reap the fruitful outcome of accumulation stage.
Based on this explanation, here is the strategy that is created with 50,90 & 200 Simple moving average and price volume trends (PVT) indicator applied on MACD to signal whenever the PVT convergence and divergence.
Note:
As the indicator designed to signal on the ticker that trade above 200 moving average, it is good to use this strategy on companies that are fundamental strong.
Whenever, there is pull back happens, the strategy might signal for exit, however, here comes the traders patient based on the conviction on the particular chosen stocks.
White being patient is good, disciplinary in following the strategy also important. Hence, consider the action when the stock goes opposite direction from your expectation.
Hope this strategy would help you find the profit.
Happy investing.
Williams Accumulation/Distribution (Williams AD) Strategy Accumulation is a term used to describe a market controlled by buyers;
whereas distribution is defined by a market controlled by sellers.
Williams recommends trading this indicator based on divergences:
Distribution of the security is indicated when the security is making
a new high and the A/D indicator is failing to make a new high. Sell.
Accumulation of the security is indicated when the security is making
a new low and the A/D indicator is failing to make a new low. Buy.
WARNING:

Accumulation and Distribution MomentumThis applies Chande Momentum to Accumulation and Distribution index as a means to changes.
Experimental oscillator.
Compare it to both Money Flows, Acc/Dis and Chande and you notice it has elements of all of them. Could potentially replace other volume based momentum indicators in your strategy.
It is a little more volatile, reaching from side to side, while having a tendency to lean towards the side that gets the most action over a longer period of time.
It also tends to reach and hang in oversold regions BEFORE a pump - something I noticed.
Could be used as an early warning sign as well as for overall trend analysis.
