Chervolinos-Wave-PM-ForecastThe Wave PM (Whistler Active Volatility Energy – Price Mass) indicator is an oscillator described in Mark Whistler's book, Volatility Illuminated.
The Wave PM is specifically designed to help read volatility cycles. When we visualize volatility cycles as a chart, we can get a clear view of the market volatility phases in multiple time frames. This indicator forms an arithmetic mean over 30 observed periods. Traders can thus get a better insight into "potential" volatility from up to pent-up energy, the different zones give strong help to predict future price developments.
Possible interpretation patterns:
You are at the end of a long uptrend and you want to know if the price is going to go down, if the indicator shows red and the value is above 25, it is likely to do so.
You're in a downtrend and there's a bit of a recovery phase, so you might be wondering if it's going to continue when the indicator shows green. It would go further with yellow, but with green it can be assumed that it is going down rapidly.
Special thanks to sourcey who programmed the 3D Wave-PM.
This variant of sourcey looks very nice, but was too confusing for me. In order to get a strong overview, forming an arithmetic mean is very useful.
I hope you and the Mods like my version
Best regards, Chervolino

3D Wave-PMThe Wave-PM (Whistler Active Volatility Energy - Price Mass) indicator is an oscillator described in Mark Whistler's book 'Volatility Illuminated'.
The Wave-PM was specifically designed to help read cycles of volatility. When visualizing volatility cycles as a heatmap we can get a clear overview of market volatility phases on multiple timeframes, and more importantly as traders give us insight into 'potential' volatility from to pent up energy signaled by the blue and green plumes which invariably give way to big moves signaled by the orange and red plumes.
This indicator can be quite GPU intensive, so simple and also line based visualization methods are included. Also, its free and open source so go ahead and hack it to your hearts content. Enjoy!
Wave-PMThe Wave-PM (Whistler Active Volatility Energy - Price Mass) indicator is an oscillator described in Mark Whistler's book 'Volatility Illuminated'.
The Wave PM was specifically designed to help read cycles of volatility. Read when a strong trend is about to start and end, along with the potential duration of lateral chop. By using concepts of probability and volatility, which anyone can understand, retail traders can learn to think about 'risk' more like an institutional trader. With Wave-PM and an understanding of institutional risk-based trading, at home traders are able to start seeing volatility as opportunity, not an 'out of the blue' hindrance.
Price Mass is not a directional oscillator it's more of a gauge of potential energy left in the distribution cycle.
