TradingBee Money Flow
Most traders make the mistake of relying on a single indicator. RSI only looks at price. OBV only looks at volume. If you only look at one, you are missing half the picture.
TradingBee Money Flow solves this by calculating a weighted consensus of 10 different technical metrics combined into a single "Flow Score." It answers the most important question in trading: "Is the money actually backing up the price move?"
If Price goes UP, but this indicator goes DOWN, it’s a trap.
How It Works: The 3-Tier Logic
This script does not just average numbers; it weights them based on importance to creating a true "Composite Score" (-100 to +100).
Tier 1: Primary Volume Flow (50% Weight) The engine of the indicator. It measures raw capital entering/exiting.
MFI (Money Flow Index)
OBV Momentum (On-Balance Volume)
Chaikin Money Flow (CMF)
Tier 2: Secondary Momentum (35% Weight) Validates if the volume is actually moving price efficiently.
VWAP Oscillation
Accumulation/Distribution (A/D) Momentum
Klinger Oscillator
Elders Force Index
Tier 3: Confirmation & Volatility (15% Weight) Filters out fake-outs using volatility metrics.
RSI
ADX (Trend Strength)
Bollinger Band Width
The "Clean Divergence" Engine (Unique Feature)
Standard divergence indicators are "noisy"—they print signals on every small pivot. The TradingBee Money Flow uses a custom Clean Wave Filter to only identify high-probability reversals.
It requires two conditions to trigger a Divergence Signal:
The "Gap" Rule (Zero Cross): The indicator must cross the Zero Line in between two peaks. This ensures we are comparing two distinct waves of buying/selling, rather than just jagged noise in a single trend.
The "Shrinkage" Rule: The second wave must be significantly smaller (by a user-defined ratio) than the first. This confirms a true collapse in momentum.
How to Use This Indicator
1. The Histogram (Trend Following)
Bright Green: Buying pressure is accelerating. Strong Trend.
Dark Green: Buying is continuing, but momentum is slowing. Warning sign.
Bright Red: Selling pressure is accelerating.
Zero Line Cross: The definitive signal of a trend change.
2. The Lines (Reversal Trading)
🔴 Red Line (Bearish Divergence): Price made a Higher High, but Money Flow made a Lower High (with a gap in between). Smart money is selling into the rally. Look for Shorts.
🟢 Green Line (Bullish Divergence): Price made a Lower Low, but Money Flow made a Higher Low. Sellers are exhausted. Look for Longs.
Settings
Lookback Period: Adjusts the sensitivity of the composite score.
Pivot Lookback: Increases or decreases the strictness of the pivot detection.
Require Zero Cross: Keep checked for "Clean" signals. Uncheck to see standard divergences.
Wave Size Ratio: Defines how much smaller the second wave must be to trigger a signal.
