HISTORY AND CREDITS––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––– The indicator is inspired by studies from Ned Davis' NDR Institutional Service. I have shared before the backtest of this indicator, and now have coded it for TradingView so that you can have it on your charts.

WHAT IT DOES–––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––– Thrusts occur when the S&P 500 rises at least 1.5% for one day, at least 1.15% for a second day, and at least 1.5% on the third day. The record since 1970 is perfect one year later. However, the prior 18 cases, ending in 1938, only show 11 out of 18 profitable one year later.
HOW TO USE IT––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––– I use the indicator as a gauge tool, in other words it is a piece of the puzzle to justify bullish or bearish trades. I put this type of analysis in my secondary tools that give me additional confidence for market direction and aggressiveness in my trading
