daily-trend-based

Model directional persistence and multi-day momentum strength to uncover sustained price movements.

Model directional persistence and multi-day momentum strength while controlling for noisy path dependence:

• signed multi-day return persistence across short and medium windows, normalized by recent volatility or range;
• trend efficiency as net displacement divided by cumulative path length, distinguishing smooth trends from choppy movement;
• intraday body direction aligned with close-to-close momentum to confirm that the daily candle supports the trend;
• EWMA slope or curvature of log close scaled by volatility, range, or drawdown pressure;
• fragile momentum penalties when trend strength coincides with expanding range, deteriorating close location, or volume exhaustion.

Favor trend descriptors that measure sustained, efficient direction rather than simple moving-average crossovers.
