Adaptive Trend Model · Daily & Weekly (2025-12-24 ET)

This model uses an adaptive trend algorithm based on daily and weekly price data to identify whether a stock is in an uptrend, downtrend, or consolidation over a multi-week to multi-month horizon. Compared with traditional moving-average systems, it filters short-term noise more effectively, captures trend continuation more reliably, and provides a stronger basis for position sizing and risk-management decisions such as stop-loss and take-profit levels.
