Early Signals
Changes that have not yet become trends: a moving-average crossing, rising rate of change, a volatility jump, unusual behaviour, or divergence from a related indicator. Not every movement is an early signal.
No signals match these filters.
That means the rules found nothing — not that anything is being hidden.
Transparency
Where does each signal come from?
These are simple statistical rules, not a black box. Each can be reproduced in a spreadsheet, and every signal displays the number that triggered it.
| Rule | What it detects |
|---|---|
| Threshold Crossing | A one-period change exceeded the indicator's configured limit. |
| Moving-average crossing | The value crossed its own 30-period average. That does not confirm a trend; it marks a change in behaviour. |
| Trend Acceleration | Four or more consecutive periods in one direction — so this is not a single-day move. |
| Acceleration | The rate of change itself is rising, not just the level. |
| Volatility jump | Recent dispersion is well above this indicator's own normal behaviour. |
| Anomaly | The latest change is several standard deviations from the historical distribution. |
| Divergence | The indicator moved against something it usually tracks. |
One important caveat
"Unusual" is not the same as "important", and a divergence can mark a change or can be noise. Every signal describes what has happened, never what is going to happen.
