# MOM
|
||
|
||
> Momentum — the raw price change over a fixed lookback,
|
||
> `price_t − price_{t−period}`, in absolute price units.
|
||
|
||
## Quick reference
|
||
|
||
| Field | Value |
|
||
|-------|-------|
|
||
| Family | Momentum |
|
||
| Sub-category | Unbounded oscillators |
|
||
| Input type | `f64` (single close) |
|
||
| Output type | `f64` |
|
||
| Output range | unbounded around zero (price-difference scale) |
|
||
| Default parameters | `period = 10` (Python) |
|
||
| Warmup period | `period + 1` |
|
||
| Interpretation | Sign and size of the move over the last `period` bars. |
|
||
|
||
## Formula
|
||
|
||
```
|
||
MOM_t = price_t − price_{t−period}
|
||
```
|
||
|
||
The simplest momentum primitive. Positive output means price is higher
|
||
than it was `period` bars ago, negative means lower, and the magnitude is
|
||
the change in raw price units. [`Roc`](Indicator-Roc.md) is the same idea
|
||
expressed as a percentage of the old price.
|
||
|
||
## Parameters
|
||
|
||
| Name | Type | Default | Valid range | Description |
|
||
|----------|---------|----------------|-------------|-------------|
|
||
| `period` | `usize` | `10` (Python) | `>= 1` | Lookback distance in bars. `period = 0` errors with `Error::PeriodZero`. |
|
||
|
||
The Python binding defaults `period` to `10` via `#[pyo3(signature = (period=10))]`.
|
||
|
||
## Inputs / Outputs
|
||
|
||
From `crates/wickra-core/src/indicators/mom.rs`:
|
||
|
||
```rust
|
||
impl Indicator for Mom {
|
||
type Input = f64;
|
||
type Output = f64;
|
||
// update(&mut self, input: f64) -> Option<f64>
|
||
}
|
||
```
|
||
|
||
A single `f64` close in, an `Option<f64>` out. Python maps this to
|
||
`float | None` / `numpy.ndarray` (NaN warmup); Node to `number | null` /
|
||
`Array<number>` (NaN warmup).
|
||
|
||
## Warmup
|
||
|
||
`Mom::new(period).warmup_period() == period + 1`. The output needs both
|
||
the current price and the price `period` bars back, so the window must
|
||
hold `period + 1` values — the first non-`None` output lands on input
|
||
`period + 1`.
|
||
|
||
## Edge cases
|
||
|
||
- **Constant series.** A flat series yields `0.0` from input `period + 1`
|
||
onward (`constant_series_yields_zero` pins this).
|
||
- **NaN / infinity inputs.** Non-finite inputs are silently dropped: the
|
||
rolling window is not advanced and the previous value is returned. The
|
||
next finite input still references the correct historical price.
|
||
- **Reset.** `mom.reset()` clears the window and restarts the warmup.
|
||
|
||
## Examples
|
||
|
||
### Rust
|
||
|
||
```rust
|
||
use wickra::{BatchExt, Indicator, Mom};
|
||
|
||
fn main() -> Result<(), Box<dyn std::error::Error>> {
|
||
let mut mom = Mom::new(3)?;
|
||
let out: Vec<Option<f64>> = mom.batch(&[1.0, 2.0, 3.0, 4.0, 7.0]);
|
||
println!("{:?}", out);
|
||
Ok(())
|
||
}
|
||
```
|
||
|
||
Output:
|
||
|
||
```
|
||
[None, None, None, Some(3.0), Some(5.0)]
|
||
```
|
||
|
||
`MOM(3)` first emits on input 4: `4 − 1 = 3`. The fifth input gives
|
||
`7 − 2 = 5`. This matches the `reference_values` test in
|
||
`crates/wickra-core/src/indicators/mom.rs`.
|
||
|
||
### Python
|
||
|
||
```python
|
||
import numpy as np
|
||
import wickra as ta
|
||
|
||
mom = ta.MOM(3)
|
||
print(mom.batch(np.array([1.0, 2.0, 3.0, 4.0, 7.0])))
|
||
```
|
||
|
||
Output:
|
||
|
||
```
|
||
[nan nan nan 3. 5.]
|
||
```
|
||
|
||
### Node
|
||
|
||
```javascript
|
||
const ta = require('wickra');
|
||
const mom = new ta.MOM(3);
|
||
console.log(mom.batch([1, 2, 3, 4, 7]));
|
||
```
|
||
|
||
Output:
|
||
|
||
```
|
||
[ NaN, NaN, NaN, 3, 5 ]
|
||
```
|
||
|
||
## Interpretation
|
||
|
||
`Mom` is a zero-centred oscillator. The textbook reads are the zero-line
|
||
cross (momentum flipping sign) and divergence (price making a new high
|
||
while `Mom` makes a lower high — a stalling trend). Because the output is
|
||
in price units, `Mom` values are not comparable across instruments at
|
||
different price levels; use [`Roc`](Indicator-Roc.md) when you need a
|
||
scale-free percentage instead.
|
||
|
||
## Common pitfalls
|
||
|
||
- **Comparing `Mom` across instruments.** A `Mom` of `5` means very
|
||
different things on a $10 stock and a $5000 index. Normalise with `Roc`
|
||
for cross-asset work.
|
||
- **Forgetting the `+1` warmup.** `warmup_period()` is `period + 1`, not
|
||
`period`.
|
||
|
||
## References
|
||
|
||
Momentum is one of the oldest technical studies; the implementation here
|
||
is the standard `price − price[period]` difference, matching TA-Lib's
|
||
`MOM`.
