When the correction period is set to a negative value, the indicator behaves like a standard velocity indicator.
The 'corrected' method further refines signal detection by introducing floating levels, allowing for more flexible significant change thresholds beyond zero crosses. This adjustment also enables precise control over the indicator's response and expected lag.
Alerts are integrated, triggered based on color choices, offering various alert options:
- Outer level cross
- Middle level cross
- Slope change
- Original velocity value cross (when comparing the 'corrected' value to the original as a signal line)
While the indicator originates from the momentum family, its enhancements make it suitable for trending strategies as well. The provided example illustrates its potential as a 'larger picture' indicator.
