# Signals

Trend Concepts provides various signals across its four components to help you identify trading opportunities. Each component generates specific signals that can be used independently or combined for higher confidence setups.

### Bias Magnet Signals

#### Flip Signals

* **▲ (Up Arrow)**: Bullish flip—trend changed from bearish to bullish. The baseline crosses above price and confirms.
* **▼ (Down Arrow)**: Bearish flip—trend changed from bullish to bearish. The baseline crosses below price and confirms.

#### Polarity Bars

* **☰ above baseline**: Bullish momentum indicated by MFI-based polarity bars
* **☰ below baseline**: Bearish momentum indicated by MFI-based polarity bars

The intensity (transparency) of the bars reflects momentum strength—darker bars indicate stronger momentum.

### Flux Trend Signals

#### Trend Flip Signals

* **✦ (Star)**: Bull to bear flip—trend changed from bullish to bearish. Price crosses below the lower band.
* **❖ (Diamond)**: Bear to bull flip—trend changed from bearish to bullish. Price crosses above the upper band.

A connecting line shows the transition between the old and new band positions.

#### Exit Signals

* **✦ outside bands**: Bullish exit—price left the zone after touching it in a bullish trend, suggesting continuation
* **❖ outside bands**: Bearish exit—price left the zone after touching it in a bearish trend, suggesting continuation

### Surge Waves Signals

#### Sustained Run Markers

* **Square marker**: Sustained rising run detected (5+ consecutive bars rising)
* **Diamond marker**: Sustained falling run detected (5+ consecutive bars falling)

#### Confirmation Signals

* **Small diamond signal**: Appears when a sustained run begins (on the bar where the run reaches 5 consecutive bars)

### Velocity Bands Signals

#### Re-entry Signals

* **▼ (Down Arrow)**: Price re-enters from above the +2 band (bearish mean reversion signal)
* **▲ (Up Arrow)**: Price re-enters from below the -2 band (bullish mean reversion signal)

#### Rejection Signals
