Amount Angle
The slope of cumulative turnover — is money arriving faster or slower than a moment ago?
What it means
The day's cumulative turnover always rises, but not evenly. Amount angle measures how steeply it is rising over a window: a steepening curve means participation is accelerating; a flattening one means the crowd is losing interest even if price still holds.
Because money flow usually accelerates before price resolves, this factor works as an early-participation detector — the quantitative version of "volume precedes price".
Why traders care
- Catches participation surges without waiting for a full bar of volume.
- Divergence — price pushing on while amount angle flattens — flags exhaustion.
In a TraderWe strategy
if AmountAngle(30) > AmountAngle(300) and ChangeAngle(30) > 0 and Strength > 110:
Buy()Money arriving faster in the last 30 seconds than its 5-minute pace, with price rising and buyers in control. (Cumulative turnover always rises, so compare slopes rather than testing > 0.)
