SMA + Trend Strength + Trailing Stop LossThe 'SMA + Trend Strength + Trailing Stop Loss' indicator was designed for swing trading long positions over the course of days/weeks. The benefit of the indicator is to identify areas where the market of a given asset is showing signs of a strong uptrend, divergences, and fear. A 13-bar simple moving average is color coded to four colors based on 5 given conditions at a time, which are represented as a trend meter on the bottom right of the screen. A trailing stop loss indicator is included to secure your profits or limit your loss in case the market reverses on you unexpected. Please use this indicator responsibly with proper risk management, and never rely on the indicator by itself for buy and sell signals.
When the simple moving average color is green, it means that at least 4 of 5 conditions are confirming a move upwards, this is when you can take an entry into a trade based on your entry strategy. As the trend continues, the color will eventually change to yellow signaling a divergence. This is when you can use your exit strategy to find a good point to sell. It is wise not to take new positions when the color is trending yellow.
If the color changes from yellow to orange, that is a warning sign that the trend is about to change or has begun to change. Prices may have already fallen. However, sometimes the color will change from yellow back to green signaling a continuation of the trend. You can either keep holding or take a new position in this instance.
When the color is red, this signals fear in the market, you should stay out of the market at first. However, as the market consolidates and the color starts changing back to orange, this is an opportunity to take a long position at a reasonably low price.
Simple Moving Average (13-Bar) Color Explanation:
The colors change based on 5 market conditions represented in the trend meter.
Green: Strong Uptrend
Yellow: Divergence Present
Orange: Warning
Red: Fear
Trend Meter Explanation:
The trend meter draws 5 arrows indicating bullish or bearish presence.
LL = Lower Lows - Detects when the market is trending with lower lows.
HH = Higher Highs - Detects when the market is trending with higher highs.
MA = SMA Direction - A formula is used to determine the direction of the SMA.
DI = Directional Index - Identifies when upwards momentum is trending.
RSI = Relative Strength Index - Identifies when the RSI is in an uptrend state.
Note: For advanced users, this indicator has a hidden DMI(4, 4, 4) and RSI(14) indicator used to determine the last two conditions. The Directional Index is based on a DI Plus momentum moving average to determine a momentum trend and the RSI trending over 50 will constitute an uptrend signal as below 50 it will point down.
Trailing stop loss:
The trailing stop loss is determined based on the lowest price of the last 8 bars.
A gray step-line is drawn at the suggested stop activation price.
A red step-line is drawn at the suggested stop limit price.
When the price breaches the trailing stop, a red X will appear below the bar.
You can turn each of these features on or off based on your preference. Happy trading!

Trend Following with Moving AveragesHello Traders,
With the info "Trend is Your Friend ", you should not take position against the trend. This script checks multipte moving averages if they are above/below the closing price and try to find trend. The moving averages with the length 8, 13, 21, 34, 55, 89, 144, 233, 377 used. these are fibonacci numbers, but optionally you can change the lengths of each moving averages. while it's green you better take long positions, while it's red you better take short positions according to other indcators or tools.
Optionally you have "smoothing" option to get rid of whipsaws. it's enabled by default.
You have option to use following moving average types: EMA, SMA, RMA, WMA, VWMA. by default it's EMA
Also the script has "Resolution" option. with this option you can get the trend for other time frames, in following example 1h was set as for higher time frame on 15m chart:
This should not be used as buy/sell signal indicators as it's tries to find trend but not entry points, you should use other indicators (such RSI, Momentum) or other tools to find buy/sell signals.
Enjoy!
Trend SniperThis is a leading indicator showing wave reversal points.
By drawing trendlines on this indicator you can quickly see a break of the trendline before the break on a price chart trendline.
Manually draw trendlines on the indicator to form an uptrend or downtrend.
A break down of the upward trendline gives a sell signal.
A break up of the downward trendline gives a buy signal.
Also included an extra timeframe (Blue Line) to give a bigger perspective from different timeframes. You can choose your own different timeframe that can be lower or higher than your current price chart timeframe.
For example: Place your chart on 1H and draw your trendlines on the indicator. Set the extra timeframe to 4H of 1D to see the overall trend and motion.
By using this indicator the way we suggest, you will be able to get good trend continuation signals
Trend LinesHello Everyone! This is my new trend lines script (after beta version that was published almost one year ago)
The idea is to find Pivot Highs (PH) and Pivot Lows(PL) first.
Then, If current PH is smaller then previous PH (means no new higher high and possible downtrend) then draw trend line using them. and also it checks previous trend line (if exits) and if current angle is smaller then don't extend previous one.
Same idea when using Pivot Lows, If current PL is higher then previous PL (means no new lower low and possible uptrend) then draw trend line using them. and also it checks previous trend line (if exits) and if current angle is smaller then don't extend previous one.
Optionally style of old trend lines drawn as dashed.
Hope you enjoy it!

Two Poles Trend Finder MTF [BigBeluga]🔵 OVERVIEW
Two Poles Trend Finder MTF is a refined trend-following overlay that blends a two-pole Gaussian filter with a multi-timeframe dashboard. It provides a smooth view of price dynamics along with a clear summary of trend directions across multiple timeframes—perfect for traders seeking alignment between short and long-term momentum.
🔵 CONCEPTS
Two-Pole Filter: A smoothing algorithm that responds faster than traditional moving averages but avoids the noise of short-term fluctuations.
var float f = na
var float f_prev1 = na
var float f_prev2 = na
// Apply two-pole Gaussian filter
if bar_index >= 2
f := math.pow(alpha, 2) * source + 2 * (1 - alpha) * f_prev1 - math.pow(1 - alpha, 2) * f_prev2
else
f := source // Warm-up for first bars
// Shift state
f_prev2 := f_prev1
f_prev1 := f
Trend Detection Logic: Trend direction is determined by comparing the current filtered value with its value n bars ago (shifted comparison).
MTF Alignment Dashboard: Trends from 5 configurable timeframes are monitored and visualized as colored boxes:
• Green = Uptrend
• Magenta = Downtrend
Summary Arrow: An average trend score from all timeframes is used to plot an overall arrow next to the asset name.
🔵 FEATURES
Two-Pole Gaussian Filter offers ultra-smooth trend curves while maintaining responsiveness.
Multi-Timeframe Trend Detection:
• Default: 1H, 2H, 4H, 12H, 1D (fully customizable)
• Each timeframe is assessed independently using the same trend logic.
Visual Trend Dashboard positioned at the bottom-right of the chart with color-coded trend blocks.
Dynamic Summary Arrow shows overall market bias (🢁 / 🢃) based on majority of uptrends/downtrends.
Bold + wide trail plot for the filter value with gradient coloring based on directional bias.
🔵 HOW TO USE
Use the multi-timeframe dashboard to identify aligned trends across your preferred trading horizons.
Confirm trend strength or weakness by observing filter slope direction .
Look for dashboard consensus (e.g., 4 or more timeframes green] ) as confirmation for breakout, continuation, or trend reentry strategies.

🔵 CONCLUSION
Two Poles Trend Finder MTF delivers a clean and intuitive trend-following solution with built-in multi-timeframe awareness. Whether you’re trading intra-day or positioning for swing setups, this tool helps filter out market noise and keeps you focused on directional consensus.
EMA Trend Dashboard
Trend Indicator using 3 custom EMA lines. Displays a table with 5 rows(position configurable)
-First line shows relative position of EMA lines to each other and outputs Bull, Weak Bull, Flat, Weak Bear, or Bear. EMA line1 should be less than EMA line2 and EMA line 2 should be less than EMA line3. Default is 9,21,50.
-Second through fourth line shows the slant of each EMA line. Up, Down, or Flat. Threshold for what is considered a slant is configurable. Also added a "steep" threshold configuration for steep slants.
-Fifth line shows exhaustion and is a simple, configurable calculation of the distance between EMA line1 and EMA line2.
--Lines one and five change depending on its value but ALL other colors are able to be changed.
--Default is somewhat set to work well with Micro E-mini Futures but this indicator can be changed to work on anything. I created it to help get a quick overview of short-term trend on futures. I used ChatGPT to help but I am still not sure if it actually took longer because of it.
Step Channel Momentum Trend [ChartPrime]OVERVIEW
Step Channel Momentum Trend is a momentum-based price filtering system that adapts to market structure using pivot levels and ATR volatility. It builds a dynamic channel around a stepwise midline derived from swing highs and lows. The system colors price candles based on whether price remains inside this channel (low momentum) or breaks out (strong directional flow). This allows traders to clearly distinguish ranging conditions from trending ones and take action accordingly.
⯁ STRUCTURAL MIDLNE (STEP CHANNEL CORE)
The midline acts as the backbone of the trend system and is based on structure rather than smoothing.
Calculated as the average of the most recent confirmed Pivot High and Pivot Low.
The result is a step-like horizontal line that only updates when new pivot points are confirmed.
This design avoids lag and makes the line "snap" to recent structural shifts.
It reflects the equilibrium level between recent bullish and bearish control.
snapshot
This unique step logic creates clear regime shifts and prevents noise from distorting trend interpretation.
⯁ DYNAMIC VOLATILITY BANDS (ATR FILTERING)
To detect momentum strength, the script constructs upper and lower bands using the ATR (Average True Range):
The distance from the midline is determined by ATR × multiplier (default: 200-period ATR × 0.6).
These bands adjust dynamically to volatility, expanding in high-ATR environments and contracting in calm markets.
The area between upper and lower bands represents a neutral or ranging market state.
Breakouts outside the bands are treated as significant momentum shifts.
snapshot
This filtering approach ensures that only meaningful breakouts are visually emphasized — not every candle fluctuation.
⯁ MOMENTUM-BASED CANDLE COLORING
The system visually transforms price candles into momentum indicators:
When price (hl2) is above the upper band, candles are green → bullish momentum.
snapshot
When price is below the lower band, candles are red → bearish momentum.
snapshot
When price is between the bands, candles are orange → low or no momentum (range).
snapshot
The candle body, wick, and border are all colored uniformly for visual clarity.
This gives traders instant feedback on when momentum is expanding or fading — ideal for breakout, pullback, or trend-following strategies.
⯁ PIVOT-BASED SWING ANCHORS
Each confirmed pivot is plotted as a label ⬥ directly on the chart:
snapshot
They also serve as potential manual entry zones, SL/TP anchors, or confirmation points.
⯁ MOMENTUM STATE LABEL
To reinforce the current market mode, a live label is displayed at the most recent candle:
Displays either:
“Momentum Up” when price breaks above the upper band.
snapshot
“Momentum Down” when price breaks below the lower band.
snapshot
“Range” when price remains between the bands.
snapshot
Label color matches the candle color for quick identification.
Automatically updates on each bar close.
This helps discretionary traders filter trades based on market phase.
USAGE
Use the green/red zones to enter with momentum and ride trending moves.
Use the orange zone to stay out or fade ranges.
The step midline can act as a breakout base, pullback anchor, or bias reference.
Combine with other indicators (e.g., order blocks, divergences, or volume) to build high-confluence systems.
CONCLUSION
Step Channel Momentum Trend gives traders a clean, adaptive framework for identifying trend direction, volatility-based breakouts, and ranging environments — all from structural logic and ATR responsiveness. Its stepwise midline provides clarity, while its dynamic color-coded candles make momentum shifts impossible to miss. Whether you’re scalping intraday momentum or managing swing entries, this tool helps you trade with the market’s rhythm — not against it.
Wavelet-Trend ML Integration [Alpha Extract]Alpha-Extract Volatility Quality Indicator
The Alpha-Extract Volatility Quality (AVQ) Indicator provides traders with deep insights into market volatility by measuring the directional strength of price movements. This sophisticated momentum-based tool helps identify overbought and oversold conditions, offering actionable buy and sell signals based on volatility trends and standard deviation bands.
🔶 CALCULATION
The indicator processes volatility quality data through a series of analytical steps:
Bar Range Calculation: Measures true range (TR) to capture price volatility.
Directional Weighting: Applies directional bias (positive for bullish candles, negative for bearish) to the true range.
VQI Computation: Uses an exponential moving average (EMA) of weighted volatility to derive the Volatility Quality Index (VQI).
Smoothing: Applies an additional EMA to smooth the VQI for clearer signals.
Normalization: Optionally normalizes VQI to a -100/+100 scale based on historical highs and lows.
Standard Deviation Bands: Calculates three upper and lower bands using standard deviation multipliers for volatility thresholds.
Signal Generation: Produces overbought/oversold signals when VQI reaches extreme levels (±200 in normalized mode).
Formula:
Bar Range = True Range (TR)
Weighted Volatility = Bar Range × (Close > Open ? 1 : Close < Open ? -1 : 0)
VQI Raw = EMA(Weighted Volatility, VQI Length)
VQI Smoothed = EMA(VQI Raw, Smoothing Length)
VQI Normalized = ((VQI Smoothed - Lowest VQI) / (Highest VQI - Lowest VQI) - 0.5) × 200
Upper Band N = VQI Smoothed + (StdDev(VQI Smoothed, VQI Length) × Multiplier N)
Lower Band N = VQI Smoothed - (StdDev(VQI Smoothed, VQI Length) × Multiplier N)
🔶 DETAILS
Visual Features:
VQI Plot: Displays VQI as a line or histogram (lime for positive, red for negative).
Standard Deviation Bands: Plots three upper and lower bands (teal for upper, grayscale for lower) to indicate volatility thresholds.
Reference Levels: Horizontal lines at 0 (neutral), +100, and -100 (in normalized mode) for context.
Zone Highlighting: Overbought (⋎ above bars) and oversold (⋏ below bars) signals for extreme VQI levels (±200 in normalized mode).
Candle Coloring: Optional candle overlay colored by VQI direction (lime for positive, red for negative).
Interpretation:
VQI ≥ 200 (Normalized): Overbought condition, strong sell signal.
VQI 100–200: High volatility, potential selling opportunity.
VQI 0–100: Neutral bullish momentum.
VQI 0 to -100: Neutral bearish momentum.
VQI -100 to -200: High volatility, strong bearish momentum.
VQI ≤ -200 (Normalized): Oversold condition, strong buy signal.
🔶 EXAMPLES
Overbought Signal Detection: When VQI exceeds 200 (normalized), the indicator flags potential market tops with a red ⋎ symbol.
Example: During strong uptrends, VQI reaching 200 has historically preceded corrections, allowing traders to secure profits.
Oversold Signal Detection: When VQI falls below -200 (normalized), a lime ⋏ symbol highlights potential buying opportunities.
Example: In bearish markets, VQI dropping below -200 has marked reversal points for profitable long entries.
Volatility Trend Tracking: The VQI plot and bands help traders visualize shifts in market momentum.
Example: A rising VQI crossing above zero with widening bands indicates strengthening bullish momentum, guiding traders to hold or enter long positions.
Dynamic Support/Resistance: Standard deviation bands act as dynamic volatility thresholds during price movements.
Example: Price reversals often occur near the third standard deviation bands, providing reliable entry/exit points during volatile periods.
🔶 SETTINGS
Customization Options:
VQI Length: Adjust the EMA period for VQI calculation (default: 14, range: 1–50).
Smoothing Length: Set the EMA period for smoothing (default: 5, range: 1–50).
Standard Deviation Multipliers: Customize multipliers for bands (defaults: 1.0, 2.0, 3.0).
Normalization: Toggle normalization to -100/+100 scale and adjust lookback period (default: 200, min: 50).
Display Style: Switch between line or histogram plot for VQI.
Candle Overlay: Enable/disable VQI-colored candles (lime for positive, red for negative).
The Alpha-Extract Volatility Quality Indicator empowers traders with a robust tool to navigate market volatility. By combining directional price range analysis with smoothed volatility metrics, it identifies overbought and oversold conditions, offering clear buy and sell signals. The customizable standard deviation bands and optional normalization provide precise context for market conditions, enabling traders to make informed decisions across various market cycles.
Trend Finder Using Pull Back Method {Darkoexe}This indicator predicts trends using pull backs structure to predict the trend direction. It builds off the flag pattern concept but it uses precise precise measurements to determine trend direction.
A pull back occurs every time the price direction switches then closes either below or above the open of the previous candle depending on the type of pull back, bullish or bearish.
For an up trend to be a defined, when a bullish pull back occurs and does not go below the previous low, if the price then passes above the start of the pull back, an up trend signal will be printed. Only bullish pull backs will be displayed during an up trend.
For a down trend to be defined, when a bearish pull back occurs and does not go above the previous high, if the price then passes below the start of the pull back, a down trend signal will be printed. Only bearish pull backs will be displayed during a down trend.
If the conditions for an up trend or down trend are not met, no trend will be printed. Both bearish and bullish pull backs will be displayed during a no trend.
All the labels colors can be changed.

Gradient Trend Filter STRATEGY [ChartPrime/PineIndicators]This strategy is based on the Gradient Trend Filter indicator developed by ChartPrime. Full credit for the concept and indicator goes to ChartPrime.
The Gradient Trend Filter Strategy is designed to execute trades based on the trend analysis and filtering system provided by the Gradient Trend Filter indicator. It integrates a noise-filtered trend detection system with a color-gradient visualization, helping traders identify trend strength, momentum shifts, and potential reversals.
How the Gradient Trend Filter Strategy Works
1. Noise Filtering for Smoother Trends
To reduce false signals caused by market noise, the strategy applies a three-stage smoothing function to the source price. This function ensures that trend shifts are detected more accurately, minimizing unnecessary trade entries and exits.
The filter is based on an Exponential Moving Average (EMA)-style smoothing technique.
It processes price data in three successive passes, refining the trend signal before generating trade entries.
This filtering technique helps eliminate minor fluctuations and highlights the true underlying trend.
2. Multi-Layered Trend Bands & Color-Based Trend Visualization
The Gradient Trend Filter constructs multiple trend bands around the filtered trend line, acting as dynamic support and resistance zones.
The mid-line changes color based on the trend direction:
Green for uptrends
Red for downtrends
A gradient cloud is formed around the trend line, dynamically shifting colors to provide early warning signals of trend reversals.
The outer bands function as potential support and resistance, helping traders determine stop-loss and take-profit zones.
Visualization elements used in this strategy:
Trend Filter Line → Changes color between green (bullish) and red (bearish).
Trend Cloud → Dynamically adjusts color based on trend strength.
Orange Markers → Appear when a trend shift is confirmed.
Trade Entry & Exit Conditions
This strategy automatically enters trades based on confirmed trend shifts detected by the Gradient Trend Filter.
1. Trade Entry Rules
Long Entry:
A bullish trend shift is detected (trend direction changes to green).
The filtered trend value crosses above zero, confirming upward momentum.
The strategy enters a long position.
Short Entry:
A bearish trend shift is detected (trend direction changes to red).
The filtered trend value crosses below zero, confirming downward momentum.
The strategy enters a short position.
2. Trade Exit Rules
Closing a Long Position:
If a bearish trend shift occurs, the strategy closes the long position.
Closing a Short Position:
If a bullish trend shift occurs, the strategy closes the short position.
The trend shift markers (orange diamonds) act as a confirmation signal, reinforcing the validity of trade entries and exits.
Customization Options
This strategy allows traders to adjust key parameters for flexibility in different market conditions:
Trade Direction: Choose between Long Only, Short Only, or Long & Short .
Trend Length: Modify the length of the smoothing function to adapt to different timeframes.
Line Width & Colors: Customize the visual appearance of trend lines and cloud colors.
Performance Table: Enable or disable the equity performance table that tracks historical trade results.
Performance Tracking & Reporting
A built-in performance table is included to monitor monthly and yearly trading performance.
The table calculates monthly percentage returns, displaying them in a structured format.
Color-coded values highlight profitable months (blue) and losing months (red).
Tracks yearly cumulative performance to assess long-term strategy effectiveness.
Traders can use this feature to evaluate historical performance trends and optimize their strategy settings accordingly.
How to Use This Strategy
Identify Trend Strength & Reversals:
Use the trend line and cloud color changes to assess trend strength and detect potential reversals.
Monitor Momentum Shifts:
Pay attention to gradient cloud color shifts, as they often appear before the trend line changes color.
This can indicate early momentum weakening or strengthening.
Act on Trend Shift Markers:
Use orange diamonds as confirmation signals for trend shifts and trade entry/exit points.
Utilize Cloud Bands as Support/Resistance:
The outer bands of the cloud serve as dynamic support and resistance, helping with stop-loss and take-profit placement.
Considerations & Limitations
Trend Lag: Since the strategy applies a smoothing function, entries may be slightly delayed compared to raw price action.
Volatile Market Conditions: In high-volatility markets, trend shifts may occur more frequently, leading to higher trade frequency.
Optimized for Trend Trading: This strategy is best suited for trending markets and may produce false signals in sideways (ranging) conditions.
Conclusion
The Gradient Trend Filter Strategy is a trend-following system based on the Gradient Trend Filter indicator by ChartPrime. It integrates noise filtering, trend visualization, and gradient-based color shifts to help traders identify strong market trends and potential reversals.
By combining trend filtering with a multi-layered cloud system, the strategy provides clear trade signals while minimizing noise. Traders can use this strategy for long-term trend trading, momentum shifts, and support/resistance-based decision-making.
This strategy is a fully automated system that allows traders to execute long, short, or both directions, with customizable settings to adapt to different market conditions.

✔ Customizable Sensitivity – Fine-tune MA smoothing, ADX thresholds, pivot detection, and pullback range
How It Works
1. Trend Classification
• Uptrend (Green): Price is above a key MA, ADX confirms strength, and a pivot breakout occurs
• Downtrend (Red): Price is below a key MA, ADX confirms strength, and a pivot breakdown occurs
• Pending Trend (Light Colors): Initial trend breakout or breakdown is detected but requires further confirmation
• Sideways/Ranging (Gray): ADX signals a weak trend, and price remains within a neutral zone
2. Retest & Confirmation Logic
• A trend is only confirmed after a breakout or breakdown followed by a successful retest
• If the market fails the retest, the indicator resets to a neutral state
3. Custom Filters for Optimization
• Enable or disable volume filtering for confirmation
• Adjust pivot sensitivity to detect major or minor swing points
• Choose to require consecutive bars confirming the breakout/breakdown
Ideal Use Cases
🔹 Swing traders who want to capture trend transitions early
🔹 Trend-following traders who rely on confirmed market cycles
🔹 Range traders looking to identify sideways market zones
🔹 Algorithmic traders who need clean trend segmentation for automated strategies
Final Thoughts
The Trend Zone Identifier is a versatile market structure indicator that helps traders define trend cycles visually and avoid trading against weak trends. By providing clear breakout, breakdown, and retest conditions, it enhances market clarity and reduces decision-making errors.

Machine Learning: kNN Trend PredictorThe kNN Trend Predictor is a machine learning-based indicator that uses the k-Nearest Neighbors (kNN) algorithm for price prediction in trading. By analyzing historical price movements and computing Euclidean distances, the script identifies the closest past price patterns and forecasts potential trends. It provides color-coded trend signals, optional trade entry labels, and alerts for long and short signals.
Triple Trend Indicator [BigBeluga]Triple Trend Indicator is a versatile trend-following tool designed to help traders identify trend strength and potential pullback levels using a three-band system. Each band represents a varying degree of price deviation from the mean, providing progressively stronger trend signals.
🔵 Key Features:
Three Adaptive Bands:
The indicator dynamically calculates three bands (1, 2, and 3) based on moving averages (SMA, EMA, WMA) and ATR multipliers.
Bands are positioned below the price in an uptrend and above the price in a downtrend, offering clear trend direction visualization.
Signal System:
Signals are generated when price interacts with the bands:
Signal 1: Triggered when the price touches Band 1, indicating a minor pullback within the trend.
Signal 2: Triggered at Band 2, showing a stronger price deviation and trend confirmation.
Signal 3: Triggered at Band 3, representing the most significant price deviation and strongest trend signal.
The further the price deviates from the mean, the stronger the trend signal, with Signal 3 being the most robust.
Color-Coded Bands:
Bands dynamically change color based on the trend direction:
Green bands signify an uptrend.
Brown bands signify a downtrend.
Dynamic Trend Line Changes:
Dashed lines highlight trend changes, helping traders visualize key turning points in the market.
🔵 Usage:
Use the bands to identify trend direction and strength.
Monitor the signal system to assess the level of price deviation and potential pullback strength.
Combine Signal 1, 2, and 3 to confirm trend momentum:
Signal 1 suggests a weaker pullback and continuation.
Signal 2 indicates a stronger trend confirmation.
Signal 3 highlights the strongest momentum and potential exhaustion points.
Utilize the color-coded bands for an intuitive understanding of current market conditions.
The Triple Trend Indicator is an ideal tool for trend traders looking for structured signals and dynamic support and resistance levels to optimize entries and exits.
Trend with ADX/EMA - Buy & Sell SignalsThis script is designed to help traders make buy and sell decisions based on trend analysis using two key methods: ADX (Average Directional Index) and EMA (Exponential Moving Averages). Here's a breakdown in simple terms:
What Does It Do?
Identifies the Trend's Strength and Direction:
Uses the ADX indicator to determine how strong the trend is.
Compares two lines (DI+ and DI−) to identify whether the trend is moving up or down.
Generates Buy and Sell Signals:
Uses two EMAs (a fast one and a slow one) to check when the price crosses key levels, signaling a possible buy or sell opportunity.
Plots visual indicators (arrows and labels) for easy interpretation.
Color-Codes the Chart:
Highlights the background in green when the trend is bullish (uptrend).
Highlights the background in red when the trend is bearish (downtrend).
Alerts the User:
Creates alerts when specific conditions for buying or selling are met.
Key Components:
1. ADX (Trend Strength & Direction)
What is ADX?
ADX measures how strong the trend is (not the direction). Higher ADX means a stronger trend.
It also calculates two lines:
DI+: Measures upward movement strength.
DI−: Measures downward movement strength.
How It Works in the Script:
If DI+ is greater than DI−, it’s a bullish trend (upward).
If DI− is greater than DI+, it’s a bearish trend (downward).
The background turns green for an uptrend and red for a downtrend.
2. EMA (Buy and Sell Decisions)
What is EMA?
EMA is a moving average that gives more weight to recent prices. It’s used to smooth out price fluctuations.
How It Works in the Script:
The script calculates two EMAs:
Fast EMA (short-term average): Reacts quickly to price changes.
Slow EMA (long-term average): Reacts slower and shows overall trends.
When the Fast EMA crosses above the Slow EMA, it’s a signal to Buy.
When the Fast EMA crosses below the Slow EMA, it’s a signal to Sell.
These signals are marked on the chart as "Buy" and "Sell" labels.
3. Buy and Sell Alerts
The script sets up alerts for the user:
Buy Alert: When a crossover indicates a bullish signal.
Sell Alert: When a crossunder indicates a bearish signal.
Visual Elements on the Chart:
Background Colors:
Green: When the DI+ line indicates an uptrend.
Red: When the DI− line indicates a downtrend.
EMA Lines:
Green Line: Fast EMA.
Red Line: Slow EMA.
Buy/Sell Labels:
"Buy" label: Shown when the Fast EMA crosses above the Slow EMA.
"Sell" label: Shown when the Fast EMA crosses below the Slow EMA.
Why Use This Script?
Trend Analysis: Helps you quickly identify the strength and direction of the market trend.
Buy/Sell Signals: Gives clear signals to enter or exit trades based on trend and EMA crossovers.
Custom Alerts: Ensures you never miss a trading opportunity by notifying you when conditions are met.
Visual Simplicity: Makes it easy to interpret trading signals with color-coded backgrounds and labeled arrows.
Statistical Trend Analysis (Scatterplot) [BigBeluga]Statistical Trend Analysis (Scatterplot) provides a unique perspective on market dynamics by combining the statistical concept of z-scores with scatterplot visualization to assess price momentum and potential trend shifts.
🧿 What is Z-Score?
Definition: A z-score is a statistical measure that quantifies how far a data point is from the mean, expressed in terms of standard deviations.
In this Indicator:
A high positive z-score indicates the price is significantly above the average.
A low negative z-score indicates the price is significantly below the average.
The indicator also calculates the rate of change of the z-score, helping identify momentum shifts in the market.
🧿 Key Features:
Scatterplot Visualization:
Displays data points of z-score and its change across four quadrants.
Quadrants help interpret market conditions:
Upper Right (Strong Bullish Momentum): Most data points here signal an ongoing uptrend.
Upper Left (Weakening Momentum): Data points here may indicate a potential market shift or ranging market.
Lower Left (Strong Bearish Momentum): Indicates a dominant downtrend.
Lower Right (Trend Shift to Bullish/Ranging): Suggests weakening bearish momentum or an emerging uptrend.
Color-Coded Candles:
Candles are dynamically colored based on the z-score, providing a visual cue about the price's deviation from the mean.
Z-Score Time Series:
A line plot of z-scores over time shows price deviation trends.
A gray histogram displays the rate of change of the z-score, highlighting momentum shifts.
🧿 Usage:
Use the scatterplot and quadrant gauges to understand the current market momentum and potential shifts.
Monitor the z-score line plot to identify overbought/oversold conditions.
Utilize the gray histogram to detect momentum reversals and trend strength.
This tool is ideal for traders who rely on statistical insights to confirm trends, detect potential reversals, and assess market momentum visually and quantitatively.
Market Structure Trend Targets [ChartPrime]The Market Structure Trend Targets indicator is designed to identify trend direction and continuation points by marking significant breaks in price levels. This approach helps traders track trend strength and potential reversal points. The indicator uses previous highs and lows as breakout triggers, providing a visual roadmap for trend continuation or mean reversion signals.
⯁ KEY FEATURES AND HOW TO USE
⯌ Breakout Points with Numbered Markers :
The indicator identifies key breakout points where price breaks above a previous high (for uptrends) or below a previous low (for downtrends). The initial breakout (zero break) is marked with the entry price and a triangle icon, while subsequent breakouts within the trend are numbered sequentially (1, 2, 3…) to indicate trend continuation.
Example of breakout markers for uptrend and downtrend:
⯌ Percentage Change Display Option :
Traders can toggle on a setting to display the percentage change from the initial breakout point to each subsequent break level, offering an easy way to gauge trend momentum over time. This is particularly helpful for identifying how far price has moved in the current trend.
Percentage change example between break points:
⯌ Dynamic Stop Loss Levels :
In uptrends, the stop loss level is placed below the price to protect against downside moves. In downtrends, it is positioned above the price. If the price breaches the stop loss level, the indicator resets, indicating a potential end or reversal of the trend.
Dynamic stop loss level illustration in uptrend and downtrend:
⯌ Mean Reversion Signals :
The indicator identifies potential mean reversion points with diamond icons. In an uptrend, if the price falls below the stop loss and then re-enters above it, a diamond is plotted, suggesting a possible mean reversion. Similarly, in a downtrend, if the price moves above the stop loss and then falls back below, it indicates a reversion possibility.
Mean reversion diamond signals on the chart:
⯌ Trend Visualization with Colored Zones :
The chart background is shaded to visually represent trend direction, with color changes corresponding to uptrends and downtrends. This makes it easier to see overall market conditions at a glance.
⯁ USER INPUTS
Length : Defines the number of bars used to identify pivot highs and lows for trend breakouts.
Display Percentage : Option to toggle between showing sequential breakout numbers or the percentage change from the initial breakout.
Colors for Uptrend and Downtrend : Allows customization of color zones for uptrends and downtrends to match individual chart preferences.
⯁ CONCLUSION
The Market Structure Trend Targets indicator offers a strategic way to monitor market trends, track breakouts, and manage risk through dynamic stop loss levels. Its clear visual representation of trend continuity, alongside mean reversion signals, provides traders with actionable insights for both trend-following and counter-trend strategies.
Trend Strength/DirectionThis is a really good, though complex indicator, so I will add two different explanations so to appease both the laymen and those who take the time to read thoroughly.
Simple Explanation
This indicator utilizes 6HMA's to display their angles
The greater the angle ---> the stronger the trend
If more angles are positive, then trend is very strong
If more are negative, then very negative
Comprehensive Explanation
6 angles, each of a different time frame are used to represent direction and trend strength. Angles are used because they intrinsically represent momentum and speed. An angle of 45 represents a perfect balance between something that can cover the furthest distance without compensating for speed. 1 of the 6 angles is intended(though customizable) to represent the 5 hma's angle. This is because the 5hma is very good at representing very near term price action.
Angle Levels
Its important to understand what the angle levels mean for the underlying hma's. The 0 level represents a hma that is horizontal. This is important because this is the point at which it decides to be bullish or bearish. +/- 45, as noted before, represent bullishness/bearishness that represent strong trends without compensating for speed. A continuous increase/decrease and or a cross of these levels generally indicate significant change in sentiment, of which trades may be taken.
Strategy
You should weigh your decision by those angles that represent the longer time frame. If more angles represent a certain sentiment, it is obviously unwise to fight against that long term sentiment. The purpose of this indicator was to provide a proper representation of trend direction and strength, but also solve the problem of when you should 'dip' buy.
For an example: if all angles are increase or decreasing, then you may use the 5hma's angle to find the proper points at which you will enter a position.
***NOTE: I dont think the +/- 45 bands should indicate 'overbought' or 'oversold' zones that some might assume. Instead you should wait for a crossing of this zone.
Trend Condition [TradersPro]
OVERVIEW
The Trend Condition Indicator measures the strength of the bullish or bearish trend by using a ribbon pattern of exponential moving averages and scoring system. Trend cycles naturally expand and contract as a normal part of the cycle. It is the rhythm of the market. Perpetual expansion and contraction of trend.
As trend cycles develop the indicator shows a compression of the averages. These compression zones are key locations as trends typically expand from there. The expansion of trend can be up or down.
As the trend advances the ribbon effect of the indicator can be seen as each average expands with the price action. Once they have “fanned” the probability of the current trend slowing is high.
This can be used to recognize a powerful trend may be concluding. Traders can tighten stops, exit positions or utilize other prudent strategies.
CONCEPTS
Each line will display green if it is higher than the prior period and red if it is lower than the prior period. If the average is green it is considered bullish and will score one point in the bullish display. Red lines are considered bearish and will score one point in the bearish display.
The indicator can then be used at a quick glance to see the number of averages that are bullish and the number that are bearish.
A trader may use these on any tradable instrument. They can be helpful in stock portfolio management when used with an index like the S&P 500 to determine the strength of the current market trend. This may affect trade decisions like possession size, stop location and other risk factors.
Trend Trader-RemasteredThe script was originally coded in 2018 with Pine Script version 3, and it was in invite only status. It has been updated and optimised for Pine Script v5 and made completely open source.
Overview
The Trend Trader-Remastered is a refined and highly sophisticated implementation of the Parabolic SAR designed to create strategic buy and sell entry signals, alongside precision take profit and re-entry signals based on marked Bill Williams (BW) fractals. Built with a deep emphasis on clarity and accuracy, this indicator ensures that only relevant and meaningful signals are generated, eliminating any unnecessary entries or exits.
Key Features
1) Parabolic SAR-Based Entry Signals:
This indicator leverages an advanced implementation of the Parabolic SAR to create clear buy and sell position entry signals.
The Parabolic SAR detects potential trend shifts, helping traders make timely entries in trending markets.
These entries are strategically aligned to maximise trend-following opportunities and minimise whipsaw trades, providing an effective approach for trend traders.
2) Take Profit and Re-Entry Signals with BW Fractals:
The indicator goes beyond simple entry and exit signals by integrating BW Fractal-based take profit and re-entry signals.
Relevant Signal Generation: The indicator maintains strict criteria for signal relevance, ensuring that a re-entry signal is only generated if there has been a preceding take profit signal in the respective position. This prevents any misleading or premature re-entry signals.
Progressive Take Profit Signals: The script generates multiple take profit signals sequentially in alignment with prior take profit levels. For instance, in a buy position initiated at a price of 100, the first take profit might occur at 110. Any subsequent take profit signals will then occur at prices greater than 110, ensuring they are "in favour" of the original position's trajectory and previous take profits.
3) Consistent Trend-Following Structure:
This design allows the Trend Trader-Remastered to continue signaling take profit opportunities as the trend advances. The indicator only generates take profit signals in alignment with previous ones, supporting a systematic and profit-maximising strategy.
This structure helps traders maintain positions effectively, securing incremental profits as the trend progresses.
4) Customisability and Usability:
Adjustable Parameters: Users can configure key settings, including sensitivity to the Parabolic SAR and fractal identification. This allows flexibility to fine-tune the indicator according to different market conditions or trading styles.
User-Friendly Alerts: The indicator provides clear visual signals on the chart, along with optional alerts to notify traders of new buy, sell, take profit, or re-entry opportunities in real-time.
