Macro Acceleration (5m / 60m)

Compares 5-minute intensity against the 60-minute regime to detect broad short-term divergence.

Definition

#
Measures how much the current 5-minute activity level diverges from the broader 60-minute regime.

Formula & calculation

#
First compute rolling intensity ratios:
Rolling Intensity Ratio(w) = ((Current Window Volume + Live Volume) / (Historical Mean Volume per Minute × Window Minutes)) × 100
Then compute acceleration:
(5m Rolling Intensity Ratio / 60m Rolling Intensity Ratio) × 100

Units & range

%. 100% means 5m intensity matches the 60m regime.

Interpretation

#
Higher values indicate the last 5 minutes are behaving much more aggressively than the broader hourly context.

Practical usage

#
Useful for spotting sudden short-horizon divergence against the prevailing hourly environment.

Common mistakes

#

Frequent interpretation traps and misuse patterns to avoid when applying this metric.

  • Assuming high values guarantee continuation.
  • Ignoring whether the underlying hourly baseline is itself distorted.
