Trend Energy Divergence [JOAT]Trend Energy Divergence
Introduction
TED Trend Energy Divergence is an open-source oscillator that measures trend energy from EMA spread, linear-regression slope, projected support/resistance pressure, confirmed structure, and pivot divergence.
The indicator is built for trend-quality context. It shows whether the current move has internal energy, whether structure agrees with that energy, and whether confirmed divergence is appearing against it.
Core Concepts
1. Normalized EMA Spread
Fast and slow EMA spread is normalized by ATR so the oscillator adapts across symbols and timeframes.
2. Slope Pressure
Linear-regression slope contributes directional pressure to the energy model.
3. Projected Support and Resistance
Confirmed pivots build simple projected support and resistance references. Closing beyond those projections adds break pressure.
4. Confirmed Divergence
Pivot highs and lows are compared with oscillator values at the pivot offset to identify bullish or bearish divergence.
5. Energy Signal Line
Trend energy is smoothed and compared with a signal line to show positive or negative shifts.
Features
ATR-normalized energy: Adapts the oscillator to volatility
EMA and slope model: Blends trend spread and regression pressure
Structure-aware pressure: Adds support/resistance break pressure
Confirmed divergence: Uses confirmed pivots and offset oscillator values
Regime dashboard: Shows trend, expansion, or balance context
Projected levels: Displays pane-level support and resistance projections
Alerts: Includes bull shift, bear shift, and divergence confirmations

How to Use
Step 1: Read the oscillator relative to the zero line and signal line.
Step 2: Treat upper/lower confirmation bands as higher-conviction energy zones.
Step 3: Watch divergence states as early warnings that the current move may be losing quality.
Step 4: Use the dashboard to confirm whether the environment is Trend, Expansion, or Balance.
Limitations
Divergence confirms after pivots confirm, so it is intentionally delayed
Oscillators can remain extended during strong trends
Projected support/resistance is model-based, not a guaranteed reaction point
The indicator is not a complete trade management system
Originality Statement
TED is an original JOAT oscillator combining ATR-normalized trend spread, slope, projected structure pressure, and confirmed divergence into one Pine Script v6 energy model.
