The Trend Flow Oscillator is a market flow and momentum indicator designed to help traders identify the strength and direction of price movements with clarity, simplicity, and fast visual interpretation.
It is especially effective on the 5-minute timeframe (M5), where flow changes occur more frequently.
Features
- Identifies changes and continuation of buying and selling pressure
- Shows acceleration and deceleration of price movement
- Helps confirm entries in the direction of the trend
- Displays flow as a separate histogram for easy interpretation
- Works as a directional momentum oscillator
Target Users
- Discretionary traders
- Scalpers and day traders (especially on M5)
- Traders looking for flow confirmation rather than automatic signals
- Trend and pullback traders
- Users who prefer clean and objective indicators
How to Use
- Recommended timeframe: M5
- Histogram interpretation:
- Positive bars indicate increasing buying pressure
- Negative bars indicate increasing selling pressure
- Larger bars represent stronger momentum
The indicator can be used to:
- Confirm entries in the direction of the trend
- Avoid trading against the dominant flow

Recommended to combine with:
- Price Action

Note: This indicator should be used as a confirmation tool, not as a standalone entry trigger.
