A trend-momentum framework that only participates when the direction is clear: a momentum tempo cross, aligned with an ATR guardrail, filtered by market liveliness.
CrispVector reads the market with two clean gauges instead of a pile of indicators. The SuperTrend guardrail defines direction; the Price Momentum Oscillator (PMO) times the entry; an ATR liveliness gate keeps you out of dead sessions. All three must agree before a single entry is taken.
SuperTrend (ATR band) turns green above price (up-side) or red below (down-side). Trade only with the rail.
PMO — a double-smoothed rate-of-change line with its own signal line. A cross up is an up-beat; a cross down is a down-beat.
Skip quiet ranges: ATR must be at least 0.6× its 50-bar average for an entry to qualify.
| Condition | LONG | SHORT |
|---|---|---|
| Guardrail | Price above rail (green) | Price below rail (red) |
| Tempo (PMO) | Crosses up its signal ↑ | Crosses down its signal ↓ |
| Liveliness | ATR ≥ 50-bar average × 0.6 | |
| Protective stop | 1.5 × ATR(14) from entry | |
| Target | 1.8 × stop distance (reward:risk ≈ 1.8) | |
| Sizing / cap | Risk 1% per entry · max 10 entries/day | |
