The supertrend indicator is a technical analysis tool that can help make decisions about when to enter and exit a trade.

This supertrend adds channels. Traders use bands and channels in trading to visually identify potential support and resistance levels, gauge market volatility, and assess the direction of a trend, helping them make informed decisions about when to buy or sell an asset by signaling potential entry and exit points within a price range, particularly when the price touches the upper or lower boundaries of the channel or band.

The Volumatic VIDYA (Variable Index Dynamic Average) indicator is a trend-following tool that calculates and visualizes both the current trend and the corresponding buy and sell pressure within each trend phase. Using the Variable Index Dynamic Average as the core smoothing technique, this indicator also plots volume levels of lows and highs based on market structure pivot points, providing traders with key insights into price and volume dynamics.

Additionally, it generates delta volume values to help traders evaluate buy-sell pressure balance during each trend, making it a powerful tool for understanding market sentiment shifts.

With updated volatility calculations, it enhances the accuracy of trend detection, making it a powerful addition to any trader's toolkit.

After price itself, Relative Strength (RS) is my next most important technical reference point. Why? My goal is to outperform the US stock market (SPX) on a risk-adjusted basis (time in market). I can't accomplish that unless the assets that I'm trading are outperforming the market. In addition, there is a ton of research which supports the notion that your investing success is dependent upon buying leaders and ignoring laggards. Strength begets strength.

So, I examine Relative Performance (RP), the underlying's price divided by the comparison symbol's price...
