Neural Fusion Pro

Neural Fusion Pro
Overview
Neural Fusion Pro is a multi-factor scoring system that combines numerous technical analysis methods into a single unified score. Rather than requiring traders to monitor multiple indicators separately, this system synthesizes trend strength, momentum oscillators, volume confirmation, price structure, and price action quality into one composite reading that adapts to current market conditions.
The Scoring System
At the heart of this indicator is a weighted scoring algorithm that produces a value between -1.0 and +1.0. Positive scores indicate bullish conditions across the measured factors, while negative scores suggest bearish conditions. The magnitude of the score reflects the strength of conviction across indicators.
The score is calculated from five distinct components, each capturing a different aspect of market behavior. Users can adjust the weight given to each component based on their trading style and market preferences.
Component 1: Trend Strength and Direction
This component uses the Average Directional Index to measure trend strength and the Directional Movement indicators to determine trend direction. When ADX exceeds the trending threshold, indicating a directional market, the component contributes a positive score if the positive directional indicator leads, or a negative score if the negative directional indicator leads. In ranging markets where ADX is low, this component contributes minimally to avoid false trend signals.
Component 2: Multi-Factor Momentum
Rather than relying on a single oscillator, this component synthesizes readings from RSI, MACD histogram, Stochastic, CCI, and Rate of Change. Each oscillator is normalized to a common scale and weighted according to its reliability characteristics. RSI readings are compared against dynamic thresholds that adjust based on trend state, making the indicator more forgiving in uptrends and more demanding in downtrends.
The component also includes divergence detection. When price makes a higher high but RSI makes a lower high (bearish divergence), or when price makes a lower low but RSI makes a higher low (bullish divergence), the divergence score adjusts the momentum component accordingly.
Component 3: Volume Confirmation
Volume provides crucial confirmation of price movements. This component analyzes On-Balance Volume relative to its moving average and measures the slope of OBV to determine whether volume is supporting the price trend. Additionally, it monitors relative volume by comparing current volume to its recent average, adding confirmation when volume spikes accompany price movements.
Component 4: Price Structure and Volatility
This component evaluates where price sits within the dynamic bands and considers the current volatility regime. When price is near the lower band, the component contributes a bullish score, suggesting potential support. When price is near the upper band, it contributes a bearish score, suggesting potential resistance.
The volatility regime assessment uses ATR percentile ranking. Low volatility periods often precede significant moves, while extremely high volatility may indicate unsustainable conditions.
Component 5: Price Action Quality
This component examines the character of recent candles by tracking the ratio of bullish to bearish candles over a lookback period. Consistent bullish price action contributes a positive score, while consistent bearish action contributes negatively. This helps filter signals by confirming that price behavior aligns with other factors.
Dynamic Bands
The indicator plots adaptive bands around a central basis line. The basis can be configured as either a simple or exponential moving average. Band width is determined by ATR multiplied by a dynamic factor that incorporates both ADX (expanding bands in trending markets) and the Chaikin Oscillator (expanding bands during strong accumulation or distribution).
These bands serve multiple purposes: they provide visual context for price position, they define signal trigger zones, and they help identify overextended conditions.
Trend State Detection
The indicator classifies market conditions into three states that affect signal generation and threshold levels.
Strong Uptrend is identified when ADX is rising, ADX exceeds the strong trend threshold, and the positive directional indicator exceeds the negative. This state triggers the most aggressive buy settings, allowing entries on shallow pullbacks.
Downtrend is identified when the negative directional indicator exceeds positive DI and ADX confirms directional movement. This state applies the most conservative buy settings, requiring deep oversold conditions before generating buy signals.
Neutral applies when neither trend condition is met, using moderate threshold settings appropriate for range-bound or transitional markets.
Dynamic RSI Thresholds
A key innovation is the automatic adjustment of RSI thresholds based on trend state. In a strong uptrend, the buy RSI threshold might be set to 50, allowing entries when RSI merely pulls back to neutral rather than requiring oversold conditions. The sell threshold rises to 72, keeping traders in positions longer during favorable conditions.
In downtrends, the buy RSI threshold drops to 25, ensuring buys only trigger on genuine capitulation. The sell threshold drops to 64, making exits easier to trigger.
In neutral markets, traditional oversold and overbought levels apply, with buy triggers around RSI 30 and sell triggers around RSI 68.
This adaptive approach prevents the common problem of indicators that work well in one market environment but fail in others.
Dynamic Cooldown
The signal cooldown period adjusts based on trend strength. During normal conditions, a standard cooldown prevents signal clustering. When ADX exceeds the strong trend threshold and is rising, indicating a powerful trend, the cooldown period extends. This helps traders stay in winning positions longer by reducing the frequency of counter-trend signals.
Cascade Protection
The indicator includes protection mechanisms to prevent overtrading and averaging down into losing positions.
The BBWP (Bollinger Band Width Percentile) monitor tracks current volatility relative to historical levels. When BBWP exceeds a threshold, indicating a volatility spike often associated with sharp moves, all buy signals are frozen. This protects against entering during panic selloffs or blow-off tops.
The consecutive buy counter tracks how many buy signals have occurred without an intervening sell. After reaching the maximum (default 3), no additional buy signals are generated until a sell occurs. This prevents the destructive pattern of repeatedly buying a declining asset.
Both protection mechanisms are displayed in the information panel, allowing traders to understand why signals may or may not be firing.
Signal Generation
Buy signals require price to touch or penetrate the lower band, RSI to be below the dynamic threshold, and the market to be in a trending state (when that filter is enabled). Additionally, the cooldown period must have elapsed and cascade protection must not be blocking buys.
Sell signals require price to touch or penetrate the upper band, RSI to be above the dynamic threshold, and the cooldown to have elapsed.
Signal labels display the entry price, signal type (shallow dip, capitulation, extended, bounce sell, or neutral), and the current position in the consecutive buy count.
Visual Components
The indicator provides multiple layers of visual feedback.
Cloud shading between the bands changes based on whether the composite score is in a buy zone or sell zone. Green clouds indicate bullish score readings, while red clouds indicate bearish readings.
Background coloring reflects the overall market regime. Green background indicates a bullish regime (positive DI leadership with volume confirmation), red indicates bearish regime, and white indicates neutral conditions.
An ADX bar at the bottom of the chart uses color coding: white for ranging (very low ADX), orange for flat, and blue for trending conditions.
The information panel displays the composite score with color coding, current trend state, active RSI thresholds, divergence status, BBWP freeze status, buy counter, market regime, ADX value with trend indicator, current cooldown setting, and live RSI reading color-coded against the active thresholds.
A debug panel can be enabled to show the individual component scores, helping users understand what is driving the composite reading.
How to Use
Monitor the composite score in the information panel. Readings above the buy threshold combined with price near the lower band represent potential long entries. Readings below the sell threshold with price near the upper band suggest exit opportunities.
Pay attention to the trend state. In strong uptrends, be more willing to buy dips and more patient with holding positions. In downtrends, require stronger confirmation before entering and be quicker to take profits on bounces.
Watch the cascade protection status. If BBWP shows frozen or the buy counter is approaching maximum, exercise additional caution regardless of other signals.
Use the dynamic RSI thresholds as context. When the panel shows buy RSI threshold at 50 (strong uptrend), even a pullback to RSI 45 is a potential entry. When the threshold shows 25 (downtrend), wait for genuine capitulation conditions.
Component Weight Adjustment
The relative importance of each scoring component can be adjusted through the settings. The default weights emphasize trend strength (30%) and momentum (25%), with volume (20%), price structure (15%), and price action (10%) providing confirmation.
For trend-following strategies, consider increasing trend and momentum weights. For mean-reversion approaches, increase the price structure weight to emphasize band position. The weights should sum to approximately 1.0 for proper score scaling.
Settings Guidance
The default settings are calibrated for cryptocurrency markets on lower timeframes. For traditional markets or longer timeframes, consider adjusting the ADX trending threshold (lower values for less volatile assets), the dynamic RSI levels for each trend state, and the cascade protection parameters.
The Heikin Ashi option for band calculation can provide smoother bands but may introduce slight lag. The default setting uses standard price data for better real-time accuracy.
