### **Optimal Sensitivity Display**

The Optimal Sensitivity Display is a new feature added to the dashboard when [Auto Optimization](/toolkits/market-waves-pro-tm/trend-signals.md#auto-optimization) is enabled in Market Waves Pro.&#x20;

It shows the exact sensitivity value that Auto Optimization has determined to be most effective based on recent market performance of [Trend Signals feature](/toolkits/market-waves-pro-tm/trend-signals.md).

<figure><img src="/files/NTK8U0bOoebBRMFrTziH" alt=""><figcaption><p>Trend Signals + DashBoard Optimal Sensitivity Input</p></figcaption></figure>

{% hint style="success" %}
The Optimal Sensitivity value now appears directly in the dashboard panel. This allows users to:

* &#x20;the best-performing signal sensitivity setting in real-time.
* Manually input this value into the "Signals" field if they want to lock it in.
* Turn off Auto Optimization and use this value to ensure alerts remain consistent over time.
  {% endhint %}

### **Trend Score**

Represents the strength of the current market trend, with values ranging from -10 (strong bearish trend) to +10 (strong bullish trend). A neutral or ranging market shows as a gray cell with a wave symbol.

### **Pressure**

Volume Pressure calculates the net difference between aggressive buying and selling, but only during confirmed trending conditions.&#x20;

It highlights whether buyers or sellers are dominating within an active uptrend or downtrend, helping traders gauge the momentum strength behind the current move.

{% hint style="info" %}
Reflects the delta volume pressure of buying versus selling activity on a scale of -10 (dominant selling) to +10 (dominant buying). A zero value appears as a gray cell with a wave, signaling indecision or a balanced market.
{% endhint %}

### **MTF Screener**

**MTF Trend**: Monitors trend direction across multiple timeframes (e.g., 5M, 15M, 1H, 4H, 1D). Green indicates a bullish trend, red signifies bearishness.
