The Z-Compass is part of a suite of four indicators called the Z-Tools Black you can buy separately in the MetaTrader Market.
The Z-Compass is one of the most important indicators, because it serves as a compass in the market and is composed of the following elementsA histogram and zero line.
- The histogram is plotted with each candle and changes depending on the selected time frame.
- When the histogram is above the zero line, we say the trend or momentum is bullish and when it is below the zero line the trend or momentum is bearish.
- When in the histogram appears green bars, indicates us that the upward movement has strength, therefore keep longs and avoid taking short positions.
- When in the histogram appears red bars, indicates us that the downward movement has strength, therefore we maintain short positions, and avoid taking longs.
- When in the histogram appears gray bars, indicates us that the movement is losing strength, if It is attached by a dark green dot refers to weakness in the bullish momentum and if it is a dark red dot refers to weakness in the bearish momentum.
- Magenta color bars means that the bearish or bullish movement is extended. Not for this we must understand that the momentum has ended, but it is a sign that will have difficulty to maintain.
- Look for divergences: For instance where prices are making a series of new Lowest and the Z-Compass is failing to surpass its previous lowest.
