Important note, read first!
Sentinel Kama does not generate trading signals in the traditional sense.
It does not tell you when to buy or sell. It does not predict market
direction. It does not replace your own technical analysis or strategy.
All references to possible entries, stop-loss levels, or targets in this
manual are purely illustrative examples of how the indicator can be read.
They are not trading recommendations. Always conduct your own research
and consult a qualified financial advisor before making any trading
decisions.

1. Overview
Sentinel Kama is an adaptive trend-following indicator built for
precision entries across all timeframes. It combines a Kaufman Adaptive
Moving Average with an ATR-based trailing stop, a macro trend filter
via a configurable EMA, a session-anchored VWAP, and a real-time
dashboard — forming a self-contained trend system that adapts to current
market conditions automatically.
Unlike fixed moving average systems, Sentinel Kama accelerates during
trending conditions and slows during ranging conditions, filtering noise
before it reaches the signal layer. Every component works together: the
adaptive average identifies the trend, the ATR band confirms it, the EMA
filter validates the macro direction, VWAP anchors price to session
value, and the dashboard delivers instant confirmation of all states
simultaneously.

2. Core Components
2.1 Kama — Kaufman Adaptive Moving Average
The engine of Sentinel Kama. The indicator calculates an Efficiency
Ratio on every bar — a measure of how directionally efficient price
movement is relative to total volatility over the lookback period.
When the efficiency ratio is high (strong trend, low noise), Kama
accelerates toward price using the fast smoothing constant. When it is
low (choppy, ranging market), Kama slows to a near-flat line using the
slow smoothing constant. It tightens during trends and dampens during
consolidation — without manual intervention.
Key inputs:
- Kama Length — the efficiency ratio lookback window
- Fast Length — speed during trending conditions (default 2)
- Slow Length — speed during ranging conditions (default 30)
2.2 ATR Trailing Stop
The ATR trailing stop is the primary signal line plotted on the chart.
It trails the Kama line by a distance of ATR × Multiplier and uses a
ratchet mechanism — in an uptrend it only moves up, never down, locking
in the trend floor. When Kama crosses the trailing stop, the trend flips
and the stop resets on the opposite side.
Trend reversals are marked by dual-layer triangle signals — a solid inner
marker for precision and a semi-transparent outer glow for visibility.
Key inputs:
- ATR Length — volatility measurement period
- ATR Multiplier — distance of the trailing stop from Kama
2.3 Noise Filter
An optional gate that prevents Kama from updating on insignificant price
moves. Only price displacements larger than ATR × Noise Filter Threshold
are allowed through, keeping the trend line stable during choppy
conditions. When disabled, Kama updates every bar at full adaptive speed.
On lower timeframes, keep the threshold low (0.1–0.2) to avoid
filtering fast price moves.
2.4 EMA — Macro Trend Filter
The EMA acts as a regime filter. Bullish reversal signals only fire when
price is above it, confirming a macro uptrend. Bearish signals only fire
when price is below it. This eliminates counter-trend entries and aligns
every signal with the dominant market structure.
The EMA supports a higher timeframe input. On lower timeframes (1–15m),
setting it to 1H or 4H provides a far more meaningful macro reference.
A label displaying the current EMA value is shown to the right of the
last price candle.
2.5 VWAP — Session-Anchored Volume Weighted Average Price
VWAP provides a volume-weighted price reference that resets at the start
of each trading session. Supports Daily mode or Custom mode with precise
start and end times for any session. A label displaying the current VWAP
value is shown to the right of the last price candle.
2.6 Dashboard
A real-time overlay table displaying the most critical indicator states
simultaneously. Updates every bar and shows trend direction, Kama
position relative to the ATR stop, EMA filter status, VWAP position,
noise filter state, and the last signal fired. Available in Tiny, Small,
or Normal size and placeable in any corner of the chart.
Dashboard rows:
- Trend — current bullish or bearish state
- Kama — position above or below the ATR trailing stop
- EMA 200 — price position relative to the macro filter
- VWAP — price position relative to session value
- Noise Filter — active or inactive state
- Signal — last signal fired: buy, sell, or none

3. Presets
Three pre-built configurations cover the most common trading styles.
Each preset overrides the core calculation parameters. Visual and VWAP
settings remain under manual control.
Default | Swing — 4H / Daily
Kama 14 | Fast 2 | Slow 30 | ATR 14 | Mult 3.5 | Noise 0.3
Versatile baseline for swing trading. Balanced efficiency ratio period
with standard fast/slow constants delivers adaptive behavior across most
market conditions.
Fast | Scalping — 1m to 15m
Kama 6 | Fast 2 | Slow 15 | ATR 7 | Mult 1.8 | Noise 0.15
Built for scalping and intraday trading. Short efficiency ratio period
reacts immediately to momentum shifts. Tight ATR band keeps stops close
to price. Minimal noise filtering preserves responsiveness.
Smooth | Position — Daily / Weekly
Kama 21 | Fast 3 | Slow 40 | ATR 21 | Mult 5.0 | Noise 0.5
Designed for position trading and long-term trend following. Extended
Kama period demands sustained momentum before accelerating. Aggressive
noise filtering ensures only high-conviction moves generate signals.

4. How to Use — Lower Timeframes (1m / 3m / 5m / 15m)
Lower timeframes are fast and noisy. Sentinel Kama handles this through
adaptive speed, tight ATR stops, and macro filtering via a higher
timeframe EMA. The dashboard is especially valuable at these speeds —
instant confirmation without needing to read chart lines.
Recommended setup:
- Use the Fast preset as your starting point
- Set EMA timeframe to 60 (1H) or 240 (4H) — never leave it on the
chart timeframe at these levels
- Set VWAP to Daily or your active session with the correct timezone
- Keep Noise Filter enabled at 0.15
What to watch:
- Kama cloud widening — momentum building, trend is healthy
- Kama cloud narrowing — Kama slowing down, possible consolidation ahead
- ATR trailing stop flipping — confirmed trend change, signal fires here
- Dashboard EMA and VWAP both aligned with signal direction — strongest
confluence read
═══════════════════════════════════════
5. How to Use — Higher Timeframes (1H / 4H / Daily)
Higher timeframes produce fewer but higher-quality signals with larger
reward potential. The adaptive nature of Kama is especially visible
here — watch how it accelerates into trends and nearly flatlines during
consolidation.
Recommended setup:
- Use Default preset on 1H and 4H
- Use Smooth preset on Daily and Weekly
- Leave EMA timeframe on the chart-native setting at these levels — the
EMA 200 is meaningful on 1H and above
- Set VWAP to Daily on 1H and 4H. On Daily charts VWAP is less relevant
— consider hiding it for a cleaner chart
What to watch:
- A wide, sustained Kama cloud on 4H or Daily indicates a strong trend
- Dashboard showing Kama above stop while EMA shows above confirms trend
health at a glance
- Noise filter at 0.3 is appropriate for 1H–4H. Increase to 0.4–0.5
on Daily

7. Alerts
Three alert conditions are available, compatible with TradingView's
alert system. All alerts include exchange, ticker, and interval in the
message. Alerts respect the EMA filter — bullish alerts only fire above
the EMA, bearish alerts only fire below.
Bullish Trend — bullish reversal signal fires above EMA
Bearish Trend — bearish reversal signal fires below EMA
Any Trend Change — either reversal detected
