Moving Average Crossover Swing StrategyMoving Average Crossover Swing Strategy
**Overview:**
The basic concept of this strategy is to generate a signal when a faster/shorter length moving average crosses over (for Longs) or crosses under (for Shorts) a medium/longer length moving average. All of which are customizable. This strategy can work on any timeframe, however the daily is the timeframe used for the default settings and screenshots, as it was designed to be a multi-day swing strategy. Once a signal has been confirmed with a candle close, based on user options, the strategy will enter the trade on the open of the next candle.
The crossover strategy is nothing new to trading, but what can make this strategy unique and helpful, is the addition of further confirmation points, ATR based stop loss and take profit targets, optional early exit criteria, customizable to your needs and style, and just about everything visual can be toggled on/off. This strategy is based on a Trend (MA) indicator and a Momentum (MACD) indicator. While a Volume-based indicator is not shown here, one could consider using their favorite from that category to further compliment the signal idea.
It should be noted that depending on the time frame, direction(s) chosen, the signal options, confirmation options, and exit options selected, that a ticker may not produce more than 100 trades on the back test. Depending on your style and frequency, one could consider adjusting options and/or testing multiple tickers. It should also be noted that this strategy simply tests the underlying stock prices, not options contracts. And of course, testing this strategy against historical data does not assume that the same results will occur in future price action.
Shoutout given to Ripster's Clouds Indicator as pieces of that code were taken and modified to create both the Cloud visualization effects, and the Moving Average Pair Plots that are implemented in this strategy.
BASIC DEFAULTS
All can be changed as normal
Initial capital = 10,000
Order Sizing = 25% of equity (use the "Inputs" tab to modify this)
Pyramiding = 0
Commission = 0.65 USD per order
Price Verification = 1 tick
Slippage = 1 tick
RISK MANAGMENT
You will notice two different percentage options and ATR multipliers. This strategy will adjust position sizing by not exceeding either one of those % values based on the ATR (Average True Range) of the symbol and the multipliers selected, should the stock hit the stop loss price.
For Example, lets assume these values are true:
Account size = $10,000,
Max Risk = 1% of account size
Max Position Size = 25% of the account size
Stock Price = 23.45
ATR = 3.5
ATR Stop Loss Multiplier = 1.4
Then the formulas would be:
ACCT_SIZE * MaxRisk_% = 10000 * .01 = $100 (MaxCashRisk)
-----
MaxCashRisk / (ATR * ATR_SL_MULTIPLIER) = 100 / (3.5 * 1.4) = 20.4 Shares based on Max Cash Risk
-----
(ACCT_SIZE * MaxEquity_%) / STOCK_PRICE = (10000 * .25) / 23.45 = 106.61 Shares based on Max Equity Allocation
The minimum value of each of those options is then used, which in this case would be to purchase 20 shares so as not to exceed the max dollar risk should the stock reach the stop loss target. Likewise, if the ATR were to be much lower, say 0.48 cents, and all else the same, then the strategy would purchase the 106 shares based on Max Equity Allocation because the Max Cash Risk would require 149.25 shares.
MOVING AVERAGE OPTIONS
Select between and change the length & type of up to 5 pairs (10 total) of moving averages
The "Show Cloud-x" option will display a fill color between the "a" and "b" pairs
All moving averages lines can be toggled on/off in the "Style" tab, as well as adjusting their colors.
Visualization features do not affect calculations, meaning you could have all or nothing on the chart and the strategy will still produce results
SIGNAL CHOICES
Choose the fast/shorter length MA and the medium/longer length MA to determine the entry signal
CONFIRMATION OPTIONS
Both of these have customizable values and can be toggled on/off
A candle close over a slower/much longer length moving average
An additional cross-over (cross-under for Shorts) on the MACD indicator using default MACD values. While the MACD indicator is not necessary to have on the chart, it can help to add that for visualization. The calculations will perform whether the indicator is on the chart or not.
EARLY EXIT CRITERIA
Both can be toggled on/off with customizable values
MA Cross Exit will exit the trade early if the select moving averages cross-under (for longs) or cross-over (for shorts), indicating a potential reversal.
Max Bars in Trades will act as a last-resort exit by simply calculating the amount of full bars the trade has been open, and exiting on the opening of the next bar. For example: the default value is 8 bars, so after 8 full bars in the trade, if no other exit has been triggered (Stop Loss, Take Profit, or MA Cross(if enabled)), then the trade will exit at the opening of the 9th bar.
Finally, there is a table displaying the amount of trades taken for each side, and the amount & percent of both early exits. This table can be turned off in the "Style" tab
ADDITIONAL PLOTS
MACD (Moving Average Convergence/Divergence):
- The MACD is an optional confirmation indicator for this strategy.
- Plotting the indicator is not necessary for the strategy to work, but it can be helpful to visually see the status and position of the MACD if this feature is enabled in the strategy
- This helps to identify if there is also momentum behind the entry signal

Moving Average Trend Meter [UkutaLabs]█ OVERVIEW
The Moving Average Trend Meter is a powerful trading indicator that visualizes current market strength. This indicator uses a series of four EMAs (Exponential Moving Averages) to determine short, medium and long term market strength. Each of the three rows of boxes corresponds to an EMA, with the top being the fast, the middle being the medium and the bottom being the slow. Depending on whether each EMA is above or below the source EMA, its corresponding row will be colored accordingly, with the boxes appearing green if the source is above it or red if it is below.
This indicator also displays when the strength of the market is transitioning between bullish and bearish, indicating that there may be an upcoming reversal.
The purpose of this script is to simplify the trading experience of users by providing an easier way to visualize current market strength using a series of EMAs.
█ USAGE
This indicator provides an easy to understand method of visualizing the current market strength based on the positioning of four EMAs. By default, the period for these EMAs are selected based on key Fibonacci levels, and the period of each one can be customized in the indicator settings.
Depending on whether or not the source EMA is above or below each of the other three EMAs, the boxes of the corresponding rows will be colored to indicate the current strength of the market.
If all three boxes are drawn the same color, a dot of the same color will be drawn above the boxes.
█ SETTINGS
Configuration
• Source EMA: Determines the period of the source EMA.
• Fast EMA: Determines the period of the fast EMA.
• Med EMA: Determines the period of the medium EMA.
• Slow EMA: Determines the period of the slow EMA.
Colors
• Bullish Color: Determines the color of boxes when the source EMA is above the respective EMA.
• Bearish Color: Determines the color of boxes when the source EMA is below the respective EMA.
• Bullish Transition Color: Determines the color of boxes when the current bar closes above the respective EMA while the source is below it.
• Bearish Transition Color: Determines the color of boxes when the current bar closes below the respective EMA while the source is above it.
Heiken Ashi Ribbon [UkutaLabs]█ OVERVIEW
The Heiken Ashi Ribbon is a powerful trading tool that creates a strong ribbon that indicates market strength. This ribbon is created using four moving averages that use Heiken Ashi values (high, low, open and close) as its input values.
The ribbon will also be colored green, red or grey depending on whether or not its direction aligns with current market strength.
█ USAGE
The Heiken Ashi Ribbon is created using a series of four moving averages that uses values from the Heiken Ashi bars as its inputs. The user has the ability to select whether the moving averages are EMAs or SMAs, as well as the ability to control the period of the moving averages.
If the moving average calculated using the Heiken Ashi Open is below the moving average calculated using the Heiken Ashi Close, the ribbon will be colored green, indicating a bullish trend. If the moving average calculated using the Heiken Ashi Open is above the moving average calculated using the Heiken Ashi Open, the ribbon will be colored red, indicating a bearish trend.
This indicator also uses a series of hidden EMAs to determine market strength. If these EMAs do not align with the direction of the Heiken Ashi Ribbon, the Ribbon will instead be colored grey, indicating uncertainty in the market, as well as a possible reversal.
█ SETTINGS
Configuration
• Moving Average Type: Determines whether or not the Heiken Ashi Moving Averages will be drawn as EMAs or SMAs.
• Moving Average Period: Determines the period of the Heiken Ashi Moving Averages.
Moving Average
• Moving Average Input: Determines the input values for the hidden EMAs.
GMMA Toolkit [QuantVue]The GMMA Toolkit is designed to leverage the principles of the Guppy Multiple Moving Average (GMMA). This indicator is equipped with multiple features to help traders identify trends, reversals, and periods of market compression.
The Guppy Multiple Moving Average (GMMA) is a technical analysis tool developed by Australian trader and author Daryl Guppy in the late 1990s.
It utilizes two sets of Exponential Moving Averages (EMAs) to capture both short-term and long-term market trends. The short-term EMAs represent the activity of traders, while the long-term EMAs reflect the behavior of investors.
By analyzing the interaction between these two groups of EMAs, traders can identify the strength and direction of trends, as well as potential reversals.
Due to the nature of GMMA, charts can become cluttered with numerous lines, making analysis challenging.
However, this indicator simplifies visualization by using clouds to represent the short-term and long-term EMA groups, determined by filling the area between the maximum and minimum EMAs in each group.
The GMMA Toolkit goes a step further and includes an oscillator that measures the difference between the average short-term and long-term EMAs, providing a clear visual representation of trend strength and direction.
The farther the oscillator is from the 0 level, the stronger the trend. It is plotted on a separate panel with values above zero indicating bullish conditions and values below zero indicating bearish conditions.
The inclusion of the oscillator in the GMMA Toolkit allows traders to identify earlier buy and sell signals based on the GMMA oscillator crossing the zero line compared to traditional crossover methods.
Lastly, the GMMA Toolkit features compression dots that indicate periods of market consolidation.
By measuring the spread between the maximum and minimum EMAs within both short-term and long-term groups, the indicator identifies when these spreads are significantly narrower than average by comparing the current spread to the average spread over a lookback period.
This visual cue helps traders anticipate potential breakout or breakdown scenarios, enhancing their ability to react to imminent trend changes.
By simplifying the visualization of the Guppy Multiple Moving Averages with clouds, providing earlier buy and sell signals through the oscillator, and highlighting periods of market consolidation with compression dots, this toolkit offers traders insightful tools for navigating market trends and potential reversals.

Smoothed Heiken Ashi Candles with Delayed SignalsThis is a trend-following approach that uses a modified version of Heiken Ashi candles with additional smoothing. Here are the key components and features:
1. Heiken Ashi Modification: The strategy starts by calculating Heiken Ashi candles, which are known for better trend visualization. However, it modifies the traditional Heiken Ashi by using Exponential Moving Averages (EMAs) of the open, high, low, and close prices.
2. Double Smoothing: The strategy applies two layers of smoothing. First, it uses EMAs to calculate the Heiken Ashi values. Then, it applies another EMA to the Heiken Ashi open and close prices. This double smoothing aims to reduce noise and provide clearer trend signals.
3. Long-Only Approach: As the name suggests, this strategy only takes long positions. It doesn't short the market during downtrends but instead exits existing long positions when the sell signal is triggered.
4. Entry and Exit Conditions:
- Entry (Buy): When the smoothed Heiken Ashi candle color changes from red to green (indicating a potential start of an uptrend).
- Exit (Sell): When the smoothed Heiken Ashi candle color changes from green to red (indicating a potential end of an uptrend).
5. Position Sizing: The strategy uses a percentage of equity for position sizing, defaulting to 100% of available equity per trade. This should be tailored to each persons unique approach. Responsible trading would use less than 5% for each trade. The starting capital used is a responsible and conservative $1000, reflecting the average trader.
This strategy aims to provide a smooth, trend-following approach that may be particularly useful in markets with clear, sustained trends. However, it may lag in choppy or ranging markets due to its heavy smoothing. As with any strategy, it's important to thoroughly back test and forward test before using it with real capital, and to consider using it in conjunction with other analysis tools and risk management techniques.
Other smoothed Heiken Ashi indicators do not provide buy and sell signals, and only show the change in color to dictate a change in trend. By adding buy and sell signals after the close of the changing candle, alerts can be programmed, which helps this be a more hands off protocol to experiment with. Other smoothed Heiken Ashi indicators do not allow for alarms to be set.
This is a unique HODL strategy which helps identify a change in trend, without the noise of day to day volatility. By switching to a line chart, it removes the candles altogether to avoid even more noise. The goal is to HODL a coin while the color is bullish in an uptrend, but once the indicator gives a sell signal, to sell the holdings back to a stable coin and let the chart ride down. Once the chart gives the next buy signal, use that same capital to buy back into the asset. In essence this removes potential losses, and helps buy back in cheaper, gaining more quantitity fo the asset, and therefore reducing your average initial buy in price.
Most HODL strategies ride the price up, miss selling at the top, then riding the price back down in anticipation that it will go back up to sell. This strategy will not hit the absolute tops, but it will greatly reduce potential losses.

- Exit (Sell): When the smoothed Heiken Ashi candle color changes from green to red (indicating a potential end of an uptrend).
5. Position Sizing: The strategy uses a percentage of equity for position sizing, defaulting to 100% of available equity per trade. This should be tailored to each persons unique approach.

As with any strategy, it's important to thoroughly backtest and forward test before using it with real capital, and to consider using it in conjunction with other analysis tools and risk management techniques.
This has been created mainly to provide data to judge what time frame is most profitable for any single asset, as the volatility of each asset is different. This can bee seen using it on AUXUSD, which has a higher profitable result on the daily time frame, whereas other currencies need a higher or lower time frame. The user can toggle between each time frame and watch for the higher profit results within the strategy tester window.
Other smoothed Heiken Ashi indicators also do not provide buy and sell signals, and only show the change in color to dictate a change in trend. By adding buy and sell signals after the close of the candle in which the candle changes color, alerts can be programmed, which helps this be a more hands off protocol to experiment with.

Exponential Smoothing FilterThe digital exponential filter, in finance known as Exponential Moving Average (EMA) , can be used as a technical indicator for chart analysis to visualize uptrends and downtrends in the market. Unlike the classic simple moving average, the EMA requires only two values for its calculation: the last calculated exponential average price and the current price. This is a simple and fast calculation - even for wide smoothing windows. For further details and the math please refer to the "exponential smoothing" article on Wikipedia.
Here are some additional key points about the exponential moving average:
The EMA can react more quickly to price changes because it can give more weight to current prices - depending on your parameter settings.
Short-term, disruptive price fluctuations are smoothed out well, making prevailing trends more visible.
Despite good smoothing properties, it delays the input values slightly, so it can follow sudden trend changes well.
The EMA is well suited to dynamic markets and trading strategies.
The filter is a good basis for further processing such as gradient analysis.
How to use
When you add the script to your charts, you'll immediately see a thin orange line across your time series, smoothing out price fluctuations.
There are only two parameters to set
smoothing factor between 0.0000 = no smoothing and 0.9999 = strong smoothing
input source : open, high, low, close hl2, etc.
Chart output
In the example chart above, you can see that the orange line follows the highs and lows better than the blue line , which is a simple moving average (SMA).
Additionally, the orange line has a shorter lag, or reacts faster when the trend of the original price data suddenly changes. These characteristics are critical for buying and selling decisions: quickly reacting and tracking highs and lows while providing a smooth line that filters out distracting noise.
Ripster MTF CloudsDescription:
MTF EMA Cloud By Ripster
EMA Cloud System is a Trading System Invented by Ripster where areas are shaded between two desired EMAs. The concept implies the EMA cloud area serves as support or resistance for Intraday & Swing Trading. This can be utilized effectively on 10 Min for day trading and 1Hr/Daily for Swings. Ripster himself utilizes various combinations of the 5-12, 34-50, 8-9, 20-21 EMA clouds but the possibilities are endless to find what works best for you.
“Ideally, 5-12 or 5-13 EMA cloud acts as a fluid trendline for day trades. 8-9 EMA Clouds can be used as pullback Levels –(optional). Additionally, a high level price over or under 34-50 EMA clouds confirms either bullish or bearish bias on the price action for any timeframe” – Ripster
This indicator is an extension of the Ripster EMA Clouds. It allows you to visualize Exponential Moving Average (EMA) clouds from any time frame on your current chart, regardless of the chart's own time frame. This functionality is especially useful for traders who want to monitor higher time frame trends and support/resistance levels while trading on lower time frames.
What does this code do?
The Ripster MTF Clouds indicator displays two sets of EMA clouds. Each set consists of a short EMA and a long EMA. By default, the indicator uses Daily 20/21 and 50/55 EMAs, but you can customize these settings to fit your trading strategy. The EMAs are plotted on your chart along with their corresponding clouds, colored for easy differentiation:
EMA 1 (default 50/55): Plotted in blue.
EMA 2 (default 20/21): Plotted in teal.
The indicator uses the security function to fetch EMA values from higher time frames and plots them on your current chart, allowing you to see how these higher time frame EMAs interact with your current time frame's price action.
How to use this indicator:
Adjust Resolution:
Set the "Resolution" input to the time frame from which you want to fetch EMA values. For example, set it to "1H" if you want to see 1-hour EMAs on your current chart.
Customize EMAs:
Modify the "EMA 1 Short Length" and "EMA 1 Long Length" inputs to change the default 50/55 EMAs.
Adjust the "EMA 2 Short Length" and "EMA 2 Long Length" inputs to change the default 20/21 EMAs.
Monitor Clouds:
The indicator fills the area between the short and long EMAs, creating a cloud that helps visualize the trend. A blue cloud indicates the area between the EMA 1 pair, while a teal cloud indicates the area between the EMA 2 pair.
Use Multiple Instances:
You can add multiple instances of this indicator to your chart to monitor multiple higher time frames simultaneously. For instance, one instance can show daily clouds while another shows hourly clouds.
Integration with Trading Strategy:
Use this indicator to identify higher time frame trends and support/resistance levels, which can help improve your trading decisions on lower time frames.
For example, you can go long when the stock is above the 50-55 EMA clouds and 20-21 EMA clouds with daily resolution on a 10-minute chart and short when it is below it.
Similarly, you can short a stock under the 1-hour 34/50 EMA clouds while still trading on a 10-minute chart.
Keltner Channel+EMA with Buy/Sell SignalsIndicator Name: Double Keltner Channel with EMA (Buy/Sell Signals)
Description:
This indicator is designed to help traders identify potential trend reversals and generate buy/sell signals in volatile markets. It combines two Keltner Channels with different sensitivities (multipliers of 2.6 and 3.8) to visualize dynamic support and resistance levels. The addition of a 20-period EMA helps confirm trend direction and filter out potential false signals.
How the Indicator Works:
• Keltner Channels: These bands dynamically adjust to changing market volatility, offering a visual representation of potential price ranges. The 2.6 multiplier Keltner Channel (KC) is more sensitive to price changes, potentially highlighting short-term reversals, while the 3.8 multiplier KC focuses on broader trend shifts.
• 20-period EMA: This widely used trend indicator helps smooth out price fluctuations and identify the underlying direction of the market.
• Buy Signals: Generated when a candle's low touches or crosses below either Keltner Channel's lower band, and within the next 6 candles, that same candle closes above the 20 EMA. This combination suggests a potential rejection of lower prices (support) and a possible resumption of the uptrend.
• Sell Signals: Mirror the buy signal logic but are triggered when the candle's high touches or crosses above either Keltner Channel's upper band and then closes below the 20 EMA within the next 6 candles. This indicates a potential rejection of higher prices (resistance) and a possible shift to a downtrend.
How to Use the Indicator:
1. Identify the Trend: Use the 20 EMA to determine the overall trend direction. Look for buy signals primarily in uptrends and sell signals in downtrends.
2. Confirm with RSI : While not included in this indicator, consider using a separate Relative Strength Index (RSI) with a length of 10, SMA type, MA length of 14, and standard deviation of 2. Look for oversold conditions (RSI below 20) to confirm buy signals and overbought conditions (RSI above 80) to confirm sell signals.
3.Apply Risk Management: Always use appropriate risk management techniques, such as stop-loss orders, to protect your capital.
Key Points:
• This indicator is most effective in trending markets.
• It is not a standalone trading system and should be used in conjunction with other analysis tools and confirmation.
• The Keltner Channel multiplier values can be adjusted to suit your trading style and risk tolerance.
Important Disclaimer:
This indicator is a modification of the original Keltner Channel code and is intended for educational and informational purposes only.
It does not constitute financial advice. Always conduct your own research and consult with a qualified financial advisor before making any investment decisions.
2 MA Cross Cvg Dvg Slope Overview
This indicator combines the Moving Average Convergence Divergence (MACD) and two Moving Averages (MAs) to assess market momentum and trend direction. It aims to provide insights into the strength and direction of price movements by analyzing the MACD line, MAs slopes, and MA crossovers. Instead of eyeballing the exact MA crossovers and MAs slope steepness on the chart and MACD line changes on separate panes, this indicator pixelate the overloaded information or multiple indicators interpretation into a KISS "boolean" decision making.
Key Components
MACD Line
This line represents the difference between the fast MA and slow MA. It reflects short-term price momentum relative to the long-term trend.
Moving Averages (MAs)
Two types of MAs are utilized in this indicator:
Fast MA (short-term): Often a 9-period MA or similar, which reacts quickly to price changes.
Slow MA (long-term): Typically a 21-period MA or similar, which smooths out price fluctuations and identifies the longer-term trend.
Indicator Logic
MA Crossover: The crossover of the fast MA above the slow MA suggests a bullish trend, while a crossover below indicates a bearish trend.
MA Slope Analysis: The indicator also considers the slopes of both the fast and slow MAs to determine the direction:
Both MA Positive Slope: Indicates upward momentum or bullish trend.
Both MA Negative Slope: Indicates downward momentum or bearish trend.
One MA Positive Slope, the other Negative Slope: Indicates indecision.
MACD Line: MACD Line consecutively increase means increasing positive momentum, vice versa.
Interpretation
Uptrend: When fast MA cross over slow MA. Indicator show "+" symbol at top zone with value 0.5.
Additional Uptrend Confirmation: When both MAs have positive slope. Indicator show only green bar.
Uptrend Upward Momentum: MACD Line increase when fast MA above slow MA. Indicator show "." symbol value 0.75.
Uptrend Downward Momentum: MACD Line decrease when fast MA above slow MA. Indicator show "." symbol value 0.25.
Indecision: When one of the MA has positive slope, but another MA has negative slope. Indicator showing both red and green bar.
Downtrend: When fast MA cross under slow MA. Indicator show "+" symbol at bottom zone with value 0.5.
Additional Downtrend Confirmation: When both MAs have negative slope. Indicator show only red bar.
Downtrend Upward Momentum: MACD Line increase when fast MA below slow MA. Indicator show "." symbol value -0.25.
Uptrend Downward Momentum: MACD Line decrease when fast MA below slow MA. Indicator show "." symbol value -0.75.
Combination of above multiple interpretation can further derive different signal for Trend Starts, Trend Continuous, and Trend Reversals.
Usage
This indicator is valuable for traders seeking to:
Identify entry and exit points based on single or multiple combination of MAs and MACD Line signals.
Confirm trend direction using MAs cross over or cross under spotted easily with the "+" symbol above 0 or below 0.
Double confirm the trend based on two MAs align slope direction.
Understand momentum shifts and potential trend reversals with an easy 4 different dots at -0.75, -0.25, 0.25, and 0.75.
Conclusion
By combining MACD Line analysis with Moving Average slopes and crossovers, this indicator offers a comprehensive approach to assessing market momentum and trend direction. It provides clear signals for traders to make informed decisions on when to enter or exit positions, enhancing overall trading strategy effectiveness without the need of referring to multiple chart or zoom in and out of the price chart to identify the crossover and slope direction.

Guppy Wave [UkutaLabs]█ OVERVIEW
The Guppy Wave Indicator is a collection of Moving Averages that provide insight on current market strength. This is done by plotting a series of 12 Moving Averages and analysing where each one is positioned relative to the others.
In doing this, this script is able to identify short-term moves and give an idea of the current strength and direction of the market.
The aim of this script is to simplify the trading experience of users by automatically displaying a series of useful Moving Averages to provide insight into short-term market strength.
█ USAGE
The Guppy Wave is generated using a series of 12 total Moving Averages composed of 6 Small-Period Moving Averages and 6 Large Period Moving Averages. By measuring the position of each moving average relative to the others, this script provides unique insight into the current strength of the market.
Rather than simply plotting 12 Moving Averages, a color gradient is instead drawn between the Moving Averages to make it easier to visualise the distribution of the Guppy Wave. The color of this gradient changes depending on whether the Small-Period Averages are above or below the Large-Period Averages, allowing traders to see current short-term market strength at a glance.
When the gradient fans out, this indicates a rapid short-term move. When the gradient is thin, this indicates that there is no dominant power in the market.
█ SETTINGS
• Moving Average Type: Determines the type of Moving Average that get plotted (EMA, SMA, WMA, VWMA, HMA, RMA)
• Moving Average Source: Determines the source price used to calculate Moving Averages (open, high, low, close, hl2, hlc3, ohlc4, hlcc4)
• Bearish Color: Determines the color of the gradient when Small-Period MAs are above Large-Period MAs.

The "Session Master" indicator is a unique tool designed to enhance trading decisions by providing visual cues and relevant information during the critical last 15 minutes of a trading session. It also integrates advanced trend analysis using the Average Directional Index (ADX) and Directional Movement Index (DI) to offer insights into market trends and potential entry/exit points.
Originality and Functionality
This script combines session timing, visual alerts, and trend analysis in a cohesive manner to give traders a comprehensive view of market behavior as the trading day concludes. Here’s a breakdown of its key features:
Last 15 Minutes Highlight : The script identifies the last 15 minutes of the trading session and highlights this period with a semi-transparent blue background, helping traders focus on end-of-day price movements.
Previous Session High and Low : The script dynamically plots the high and low of the previous trading session. These levels are crucial for identifying support and resistance and are highlighted with dashed lines and labeled for easy identification during the last 15 minutes of the current session.
Directional Movement and Trend Analysis : Using a combination of ADX and DI, the script calculates and plots trend strength and direction. A 21-period Exponential Moving Average (EMA) is plotted with color coding (green for bullish and red for bearish) based on the DI difference, offering clear visual cues about the market trend.
Technical Explanation
Last 15 Minutes Highlight:
The script checks the current time and compares it to the session’s last 15 minutes.
If within this period, the background color is changed to a semi-transparent blue to alert the trader.
Previous Session High and Low:
The script retrieves the high and low of the previous daily session.
During the last 15 minutes of the session, these levels are plotted as dashed lines and labeled appropriately.
ADX and DI Calculation:
The script calculates the True Range, Directional Movement (both positive and negative), and smoothes these values over a specified length (28 periods by default).
It then computes the Directional Indicators (DI+ and DI-) and the ADX to gauge trend strength.
The 21-period EMA is plotted with dynamic color changes based on the DI difference to indicate trend direction.
How to Use
Highlight Key Moments: Use the blue background highlight to concentrate on market movements in the critical last 15 minutes of the trading session.
Identify Key Levels: Pay attention to the plotted high and low of the previous session as they often act as significant support and resistance levels.
Assess Trend Strength: Use the ADX and DI values to understand the strength and direction of the market trend, aiding in making informed trading decisions.
EMA for Entry/Exit: Use the color-coded 21-period EMA for potential entry and exit signals based on the trend direction indicated by the DI.
Conclusion
The "Session Master" indicator is a powerful tool designed to help traders make informed decisions during the crucial end-of-session period.

Exponential Moving Average with ADR bandIndicator: Exponential Moving Average with ADR Band
This TradingView script calculates and displays an Exponential Moving Average (EMA) along with an Average Daily Range (ADR) band around it. The indicator helps traders identify potential dynamic support and resistance levels adjusted for market volatility. Especially significant moves that originate from the ZONE and reach outside should be taken seriously.
Key Features:
EMA Calculation: The script computes the Exponential Moving Average (EMA) of the closing prices over a user-defined period.
ADR Band: It calculates the Average Daily Range (ADR) using a Simple Moving Average (SMA) of the daily high-low range over the same period.
Adjustable Parameters:
Length: The period for both the EMA and the ADR calculation, which can be set by the user (default is 20).
Multiple: A multiplier for the ADR to adjust the width of the bands around the EMA (default is 1).
Plotting: The EMA is plotted as an orange line. The upper and lower ADR bands are plotted around the EMA, and the area between these bands is filled with a translucent orange color to highlight the channel.
How It Works:
EMA Calculation: The script computes the EMA of the closing prices using the specified length.
ADR Calculation: The daily range (high-low) is averaged over the same length to get the ADR.
Band Creation: The upper band is created by adding the ADR (multiplied by the user-defined multiple) to the EMA. The lower band is created by subtracting the ADR (multiplied by the user-defined multiple) from the EMA.
Visualization: The EMA and ADR bands are plotted, and the area between the bands is filled to create a clear visual representation of the ADR channel.
Usage:
This indicator can be used to gauge market volatility and potential support/resistance zones.
The ADR band provides a dynamic range that adjusts with market conditions, helping traders identify potential breakout and reversal points.
To customize the indicator, adjust the 'Length' and 'ADR multiple' parameters to suit your trading style and the specific characteristics of the asset you are analyzing.
