MomentumMarketStructure

Aroon's spread is on the upper side (recent high more recent than recent low over 25 weeks); ADX's smoothed directional-movement asymmetry is elevated; +DI exceeds -DI over the 14-period lookback.

State

Recent high more recent than recent low (Aroon), elevated ADX asymmetry, and +DI above -DI

Emergence

Three directional-movement readings line up: Aroon's (Up − Down + 100)/2 spread is on the upper side (the 25-week high is more recent than the 25-week low), ADX (smoothed +DI/-DI asymmetry) is elevated, and DMI's (+DI − -DI + 100)/2 spread is on the upper side (+DI dominates). The Aroon and DMI readings are direction-asymmetric: scoring 70+ corresponds to up-direction dominance; the down-direction equivalents would score 0–30. ADX is direction-agnostic — it records asymmetry magnitude only.

Limits

All three are present-state readings on different lookback windows (Aroon 25w, ADX/DMI 14-period). None predicts how long the configuration will persist or what magnitude of move follows. The asymmetric scoring of Aroon and DMI means this interpretation fires specifically on up-direction alignment; a directionally-aligned downtrend would not fire this interpretation.

Explanation

Three directional-movement readings co-occur: - Aroon Spread (aroon-standard): combines AroonUp and AroonDown into a single 0–100 axis. Score ≥70 means the 25-week high is significantly more recent than the 25-week low (up-direction). - ADX (adx-standard): smoothed magnitude of +DI/-DI asymmetry over a 14-period lookback. Direction-agnostic — fires on asymmetry size, not on which side dominates. - DMI Spread (dmi-standard): (+DI − -DI + 100)/2 over the 14-period lookback. Score ≥70 means +DI dominates (up-direction). Because Aroon and DMI score asymmetrically (70+ corresponds to the up-direction), this interpretation fires only on up-direction alignment. A directionally-aligned downtrend would not fire it.

Interpretation

Co-occurrence of three up-direction-aligned readings (Aroon, ADX, DMI). Aroon and DMI are direction-asymmetric — equivalent down-direction configurations would not fire. The formulas do not predict trend persistence.

Required Observations

Sustained Directional-Movement Asymmetry (ADX)

Movement in one direction has consistently outpaced the other over recent weeks, whichever direction that is.

Most Recent High More Recent Than Most Recent Low (Aroon Spread)

The highest high of the last 25 weeks is more recent than the lowest low.

Positive Directional Indicator Above Negative Directional Indicator (DMI)

Upward directional movement has outpaced downward movement over recent weeks.
