Trend Lines with Break Signals [UAlgo]🔶 Description:
The "Trend Lines with Breaks " indicator is designed to identify and visualize trend lines on a price chart, allowing traders to observe potential trend reversals or continuations. This script implements a method to draw trend lines based on pivot points (highs and lows) within a specified sensitivity range. It also provides an option to display breaks in these trend lines, aiding traders in recognizing significant market movements.
🔶 Key Features:
Trend Line Sensitivity Adjustment: Users can adjust the sensitivity of the trend lines using the "Trend Line Sensitivity" parameter, allowing customization based on market conditions and preferences.
Visualization of Trend Lines: The indicator visually represents trend lines on the chart, distinguishing between upward and downward trends. Users can customize the appearance of these trend lines, including color, style, and width.
Detection of Trend Line Breaks: Trend line breaks are identified by comparing the current price with the slope of the trend line. If the price breaks below (for bullish trend lines) or above (for bearish trend lines) the slope of the trend line, indicating a potential reversal, a "B" label is displayed on the chart. Trend line breaks are only displayed if the "showBreaks" parameter is enabled.

Gray: If there is no trend
Minimum Number Of Trendy Bars: if trendy bars count is greater than this value trendy bars count will be plotted
Trend Line Trendlines are easily recognizable lines that traders draw on charts to connect a series of prices together or show some data's best fit. The resulting line is then used to give the trader a good idea of the direction in which an investment's value might move.
A trendline is a line drawn over pivot highs or under pivot lows to show the prevailing direction of price. Trendlines are a visual representation of support and resistance in any time frame. They show direction and speed of price, and also describe patterns during periods of price contraction.
Key Takeaways
Trendlines indicate the best fit of some data using a single line.
A single trendline can be applied to a chart to give a clearer picture of the trend.
The time period being analyzed and the exact points used to create a trendline vary from trader to trader.
The trendline is among the most important tools used by technical analysts. Instead of looking at past business performance or other fundamentals, technical analysts look for trends in price action. A trendline helps technical analysts determine the current direction in market prices. Technical analysts believe the trend is your friend, and identifying this trend is the first step in the process of making a good trade.
To create a trendline, an analyst must have at least two points on a price chart. Some analysts like to use different time frames such as one minute or five minutes. Others look at daily charts or weekly charts. Some analysts put aside time altogether, choosing to view trends based on tick intervals rather than intervals of time. What makes trendlines so universal in usage and appeal is they can be used to help identify trends regardless of the time period, time frame or interval used.
Trend Friendly RSITrend Friendly RSI
Unlike the standard RSI, "Trend Friendly RSI" adapts to the trend. RSI and other momentum-based oscillators cannot give a buy signal in uptrends and a sell signal in downtrends because they do not take into account the momentum of the trend and behave as if the price is in a constant sideways trend. "Trend Friendly RSI", on the other hand, takes into account the momentum of the trend of your chosen length and subtracts it from the current momentum, thus giving more realistic buy and sell signals.
use it to identify your long-term investments and trading entry points for hodl. It would be wise to use this indicator for assets that you have done fundamental analysis and are sure of the trend direction. it doesn't know what the price will do, it just shows the points that are suitable for you.
remember this indicator will fail in horizontal trends.
Trendlines with Breaks [LuxAlgo]The trendlines with breaks indicator return pivot point based trendlines with highlighted breakouts. Users can control the steepness of the trendlines as well as their slope calculation method.
Trendline breakouts occur in real-time and are not subject to backpainting. Trendlines can however be subject to repainting unless turned off from the user settings.
The indicator includes integrated alerts for trendline breakouts.
🔶 USAGE
Any valid trendlines methodology can be used with the indicator, users can identify breakouts in order to infer future price movements.
The calculation method of the slope greatly affects the trendline's behaviors. By default, an average true range is used, returning a more constant slope amongst trendlines. Other methods might return trendlines with significantly different slopes.
Stdev makes use of the standard deviation for the slope calculation, while Linreg makes use of the slope of a linear regression.
The above chart shows the indicator using "Stdev" as a slope calculation method. The chart below makes use of the "Linreg" method.
By default trendlines are subject to backpainting, and as such are offset by length bars in the past. Disabling backpainting will not offset the trendlines.
🔶 SETTINGS
Length: Pivot points period
Slope: Slope steepness, values greater than 1 return a steeper slope. Using a slope of 0 would be equivalent to obtaining levels.
Slope Calculation Method: Determines how the slope is calculated.
Backpaint: Determine whether trendlines are backpainted, that is offset to past.
Trend Following or Mean RevertingThe strategy checks nature of the instruments. It Buys if the close is greater than yesterday's high, reverse the position if the close is lower than yesterday's low and repeat the process.
1. If it is trend following then the equity curve will be in uptrend
2. If it is mean reverting then the equity curve will be downtrend

Trend Targets [AlgoAlpha]OVERVIEW
This script combines a smoothed trend-following model with dynamic price rejection logic and ATR-based target projection to give traders a complete visual framework for trading trend continuations. It overlays on price and automatically detects potential trend shifts, confirms rejections near dynamic support/resistance, and displays calculated stop-loss and take-profit levels to support structured risk-reward management. Unlike traditional indicators that only show trend direction or signal entries, this tool brings together a unique mix of signal validation, volatility-aware positioning, and layered profit-taking to guide decision-making with more context.
CONCEPTS
The core trend logic is built on a custom Supertrend that uses an ATR-based band structure with long smoothing chains—first through a WMA, then an EMA—allowing the trend line to respond to major shifts while ignoring noise. A key addition is the use of rejection logic: the script looks for consolidation candles that "hug" the smoothed trend line and counts how many consecutive bars reject from it. This behavior often precedes significant moves. A user-defined threshold filters out weak tests and highlights only meaningful rejections.
FEATURES
Trend Detection : Automatically identifies trend direction using a smoothed Supertrend (WMA + EMA), with shape markers on trend shifts and color-coded bars for clarity.
Rejection Signals : Detects price rejections at the trend line after a user-defined number of consolidation bars; plots ▲/▼ icons to highlight strong continuation setups.
Target Projection : On trend confirmation, plots entry, stop-loss (ATR-based), and three dynamic take-profit levels based on customizable multiples.
Dynamic Updates : All levels (entry, SL, TP1–TP3) auto-adjust based on volatility and are labeled in real time on the chart.
Customization : Users can tweak trend parameters, rejection confirmation count, SL/TP ratios, smoothing lengths, and appearance settings.
Alerts : Built-in alerts for trend changes, rejection events, and when TP1, TP2, or TP3 are reached.
Chart Overlay : Plots directly on price chart with minimal clutter and clearly labeled levels for easy trading.
USAGE
Start by tuning the Supertrend factor and ATR period to fit your asset and timeframe—higher values will catch bigger swings, lower values catch faster moves. The confirmation count should match how tightly you want to filter rejection behavior—higher values make signals rarer but stronger. When the trend shifts, the indicator colors the bars and line accordingly, and if enabled, plots the full entry-TP-SL structure. Rejection markers appear only after enough qualifying bars confirm price pressure at the trend line. This is especially useful for continuation plays where price retests the trend but fails to break it. All calculations are based on volatility (ATR), so targets naturally adjust with market conditions. Add alerts to get notified of important signals even when away from the chart.
Trend CounterTREND COUNTER is a Trend Exhaustion Indicator that tracks the persistence of price movements over a series of bars, helping traders identify potential trend exhaustion and reversals.
It compares each bar's value (typically the closing price) to a previous bar from a set lookback period (the lookback bar), counting consecutive bullish or bearish price movements.
The count resets when the trend reverses, signaling a potential shift in momentum.
• Price movement is considered bullish if the current price exceeds the lookback bar's price, incrementing the bullish count with each consecutive occurrence.
• Price movement is considered bearish if the current price is lower than the lookback bar's price, incrementing the bearish count with each consecutive occurrence.
• The count resets when the trend reverses.
• The user sets the threshold for sequence resets by defining the maximum number of consecutive occurrences.
• The count may reset before a trend reversal if it surpasses the user-defined threshold.
This type of indicator is useful for detecting trends, trend exhaustion, overbought or oversold conditions, and potential reversal points, helping traders anticipate market turns.
• Sequential occurrences gauge trend strength.
A long sequence of bullish bars suggests strong upward momentum, while consecutive bearish bars indicate sustained downward pressure.
This helps traders assess whether a trend is likely to continue or weaken.
• Identify thresholds for potential reversal points.
Counting consecutive bullish or bearish price movements can highlight overextended trends.
A trend reaching a predefined threshold may signal an upcoming reversal or momentum slowdown.
• Identify potential entry or exit points.
If trends are showing signs of exhaustion after a certain number of consecutive price movements, traders may use this for timing adjustments to their position.
• Assess risk.
Understanding trend strength helps traders better adjust stop-loss or take-profit levels.
Sequential counting provides a structured approach to trade management.
Visualization & Customization
The Sequential Momentum indicator visually represents consecutive bullish or bearish price movements to define trends and highlight key shifts.
• The bullish/bearish bar sequences are based on user-defined thresholds.
• Customizable bar coloring, labels, and plot shapes enhanced trend visualization.
• Dynamic color transitions make trend shifts easily identifiable.
Tracking consecutive bullish or bearish price movements can be effective when combined with other indicators or applied in specific market conditions (e.g., trending or volatile markets).
However, its reliability depends on market conditions and the trader’s interpretation.
This indicator is best used as a complementary tool rather than a standalone signal, helping traders visualize and quantify market momentum within a broader strategy.
Trending Market Toolkit [LuxAlgo]The Trending Market Toolkit focuses exclusively on trending market structures and high-confluence, high-risk-to-reward entry models. It is designed to complement discretionary trading by offering different entry strategies based on market structure.
🔶 USAGE
In the chart above we can see how the tool detects several reversals, draws the broken trendlines, the reversal areas from which the tool starts looking for a trigger, and when it finally happens, a potential trade with risk and reward areas and the risk/reward ratio.
🔹 Detection Mode
Traders can choose between three different modes: trend only, reversal only, or both.
If both are active, reversals have priority over trends, so the tool will not detect a trend if a reversal is active.
In the chart above we can see all three modes.
🔹 Detection on Higher Timeframes
Traders can choose to identify structures on the chart timeframe or on a higher timeframe.
In the chart above, we have the SP500 futures on the 5m timeframe with different settings: chart timeframe, 30m, and 1H.
🔹 Risk And Targets
Depending on whether the high-risk/reward parameter is enabled, traders can choose between three different targets and two different stops.
The chart above shows how different choices affect the risk/reward ratio for the same potential trade on the Gold Futures 2m chart.
🔶 SETTINGS
Show: Traders can choose between Trends, Reversals or Both.
🔹 Structures
Swing Length: Number of candles to confirm a swing high or swing low. A higher number detects larger swings.
Custom Timeframe: Traders can make use of the current chart timeframe, or choose a custom timeframe.
Reversal Area Threshold: A higher number increases the reversal area.
🔹 Trades
Trade Trigger Length: Number of candles to confirm an internal high or internal low. A lower number detects smaller swings. It must be the same size or smaller than the swing length.
Target: Traders can choose between the default target (0) or two extended targets (0.27 or 0.618).
Risk to Reward Threshold: Set the minimum risk-to-reward ratio to detect trades. Use the 0 value to detect all trades.
High Risk to Reward: Enable/Disable the high risk to reward mode.
Trend Battery [Phantom]Trend Battery
Visualize Trend Strength with a Dynamic EMA Power Gauge
OVERVIEW
The Trend Battery indicator offers a clear, visual representation of trend strength based on the alignment of multiple Exponential Moving Averages (EMAs). It assigns a color-coded score to each bar, helping traders quickly assess the prevailing trend's power and direction.
CONCEPT
• Trend Strength Using EMAs: The indicator analyzes the alignment of 20 EMAs (8 to 200 periods) to gauge trend strength. The more EMAs align, the stronger the trend.
• Gradient-Based Visualization: Scores are mapped to a color gradient, transitioning from green (bullish) to purple (bearish), providing an intuitive visual representation of trend momentum.
HOW IT WORKS
Trend Battery calculates 20 EMAs and evaluates their alignment. When EMAs align in a strong trend, the bar colors change (as displayed in battery color key on chart) displaying a spectrum of colors from bright green (strong uptrend) to deep purple (strong downtrend).
• Dynamic Bar Colors:
o Green hues: Strong bullish trends.
o Purple hues: Strong bearish trends.
o Red hues: Weaker trends or potential transitions.
FEATURES
• Dynamic Color Coding: Easy-to-read and instantly assess trend.
• Customizable Transparency: Adjust bar color opacity to your preference.
• Optional EMA Display: Toggle individual EMA lines on/off for additional context.
• Compact Battery View: Quick reference table displaying the gradient color mapping.
SETTINGS
• Transparency: Controls the opacity of bar colors.
• Show EMAs on Chart: Enables/disables plotting of EMA lines.
USAGE
• Identify trend strength and direction.
• Confirm trend reversals or continuations.
• Complement other indicators and strategies.
• Monitor multi-timeframe trends.
TRADE IDEAS:
• For larger timeframes purple hues can be used for accumulating and green hues for distribution.
• For smaller timeframes, color transitions could be a signal for trend reversal, or corrections.
• It is a good idea to use larger timeframes for overall trend directions, and smaller timeframes for entries.
LIMITATIONS
• Lagging Indicator: As the Trend Battery relies on Exponential Moving Averages (EMAs), it is inherently a lagging indicator. This means it reflects past price action and may not always provide timely signals for rapid market changes or sudden reversals.
• False Signals in Sideways Markets: In ranging or consolidating markets, the indicator may produce mixed signals (frequent color changes) as EMAs intertwine without a clear trend. This can lead to false interpretations if not considered alongside other market context indicators.
• Not a Standalone System: The Trend Battery is designed to be a visual aid and should not be used as the sole basis for trading decisions. It's most effective when combined with other technical analysis tools, such as oscillators, support/resistance levels, and fundamental analysis.
DISCLAIMER
Use the Trend Battery indicator in conjunction with other forms of analysis and risk management. Past performance is not indicative of future results.

Trend LinesThis script, titled "Trend Lines," is designed to detect and plot significant trend lines on a TradingView chart, based on pivot points. It highlights both uptrend and downtrend lines using different colors and allows customization of line styles, including color and thickness. Here's a breakdown of how the script works:
Inputs
Left Bars (lb) and Right Bars (rb): These inputs determine the number of bars to the left and right of a pivot point used to identify significant highs and lows.
Show Pivot Points: A boolean input to display markers at detected pivot points on the chart.
Show Old Line as Dashed: A boolean input to display older trend lines as dashed for visual distinction.
Uptrend Line Color (ucolor) and Downtrend Line Color (dcolor): Color inputs to customize the appearance of uptrend and downtrend lines.
Uptrend Line Thickness (uthickness) and Downtrend Line Thickness (dthickness): Inputs to adjust the thickness of the trend lines.
Calculations
Pivot Highs and Lows: The script calculates potential pivot highs and lows by looking at lb bars to the left and rb bars to the right. If a bar's high is the highest (or low is the lowest) within this window, it is considered a pivot point.
Trend Lines: The script connects the most recent and previous pivot highs to form downtrend lines, and the most recent and previous pivot lows to form uptrend lines. These lines are drawn with the specified color and thickness.
Angles: The angle of each trend line is calculated to determine whether the trend is strengthening or weakening. If the trend changes significantly, the line's extension is adjusted accordingly.
Plotting
Pivot Point Markers: If Show Pivot Points is enabled, markers labeled "H" for highs and "L" for lows are plotted at the pivot points.
Trend Lines: The script draws lines between pivot points, coloring them according to the trend direction (uptrend or downtrend). If Show Old Line as Dashed is enabled, the script sets older lines to a dashed style to indicate they are no longer the most recent trend lines.
This script is useful for traders who want to visually identify key support and resistance levels based on historical price action, helping them to make more informed trading decisions. The customization options allow traders to tailor the appearance of the trend lines to suit their personal preferences or charting style.
Trend Flow Profile [AlgoAlpha]Description:
The "Trend Flow Profile" indicator is a powerful tool designed to analyze and interpret the underlying trends and reversals in a financial market. It combines the concepts of Order Flow and Rate of Change (ROC) to provide valuable insights into market dynamics, momentum, and potential trade opportunities. By integrating these two components, the indicator offers a comprehensive view of market sentiment and price movements, facilitating informed trading decisions.
Rationale:
The combination of Order Flow and ROC in the "Trend Flow Profile" indicator stems from the recognition that both factors play critical roles in understanding market behavior. Order Flow represents the net buying or selling pressure in the market, while ROC measures the rate at which prices change. By merging these elements, the indicator captures the interplay between market participants' actions and the momentum of price movements, enabling traders to identify trends, spot reversals, and gauge the strength of price acceleration or deceleration.
Calculation:
The Order Flow component is computed by summing the volume when prices move up and subtracting the volume when prices move down. This cumulative measure reflects the overall order imbalance in the market, providing insights into the dominant buying or selling pressure.
The ROC component calculates the percentage change in price over a given period. It compares the current price to a previous price and expresses the change as a percentage. This measurement indicates the velocity and direction of price movement, allowing traders to assess the market's momentum.
How to Use It?
The "Trend Flow Profile" indicator offers valuable information to traders for making informed trading decisions. It enables the identification of underlying trends and potential reversals, providing a comprehensive view of market sentiment and momentum. Here are some key ways to utilize the indicator:
Spotting Trends: The indicator helps identify the prevailing market trend, whether bullish or bearish. A consistent positive (green) histogram indicates a strong uptrend, while a consistent negative (red) histogram suggests a robust downtrend.
Reversal Signals: Reversal patterns can be identified when the histogram changes color, transitioning from positive to negative (or vice versa). These reversals can signify potential turning points in the market, highlighting opportunities for counter-trend trades.
Momentum Assessment: By observing the width and intensity of the histogram, traders can assess the acceleration or deceleration of price momentum. A wider histogram suggests strong momentum, while a narrower histogram indicates a potential slowdown.
Utility:
The "Trend Flow Profile" indicator serves as a valuable tool for traders, providing several benefits. Traders can easily identify the prevailing market trend, enabling them to align their trading strategies with the dominant direction of the market. The indicator also helps spot potential reversals, allowing traders to anticipate market turning points and capture counter-trend opportunities. Additionally, the green and red histogram colors provide visual cues to determine the optimal duration of a long or short position. Following the green histogram signals when in a long position and the red histogram signals when in a short position can assist traders in managing their trades effectively. Moreover, the width and intensity of the histogram offer insights into the acceleration or deceleration of momentum. Traders can gauge the strength of price movements and adjust their trading strategies accordingly. By leveraging the "Trend Flow Profile" indicator, traders gain a comprehensive understanding of market dynamics, which enhances their decision-making and improves their overall trading outcomes.

Trend Line Adam Moradi v1 (Tutorial Content)
The Pine Script strategy that plots pivot points and trend lines on a chart. The strategy allows the user to specify the period for calculating pivot points and the number of pivot points to be used for generating trend lines. The user can also specify different colors for the up and down trend lines.
The script starts by defining the input parameters for the strategy and then calculates the pivot high and pivot low values using the pivothigh() and pivotlow() functions. It then stores the pivot points in two arrays called trend_top_values and trend_bottom_values. The script also has two arrays called trend_top_position and trend_bottom_position which store the positions of the pivot points.
The script then defines a function called add_to_array() which takes in three arguments: apointer1, apointer2, and val. This function adds val to the beginning of the array pointed to by apointer1, and adds bar_index to the beginning of the array pointed to by apointer2. It then removes the last element from both arrays.
The script then checks if a pivot high or pivot low value has been calculated, and if so, it adds the value and its position to the appropriate arrays using the add_to_array() function.
Next, the script defines two arrays called bottom_lines and top_lines which will be used to store trend lines. It also defines a variable called starttime which is set to the current time.
The script then enters a loop to calculate and plot the trend lines. It first deletes any existing trend lines from the chart. It then enters two nested loops which iterate over the pivot points stored in the trend_bottom_values and trend_top_values arrays. For each pair of pivot points, the script calculates the slope of the line connecting them and checks if the line is a valid trend line by iterating over the price bars between the two pivot points and checking if the line is above or below the close price of each bar. If the line is found to be a valid trend line, it is plotted on the chart using the line.new() function.
Finally, the script colors the trend lines using the colors specified by the user.
Tutorial Content
'PivotPointNumber' is an input parameter for the script that specifies the number of pivot points to consider when calculating the trend lines. The value of 'PivotPointNumber' is set by the user when they configure the script. It is used to determine the size of the arrays that store the values and positions of the pivot points, as well as the number of pivot points to loop through when calculating the trend lines.
'up_trend_color' is an input parameter for the script that specifies the color to use for drawing the trend lines that are determined to be upward trends. The value of 'up_trend_color' is set by the user when they configure the script and is passed to the color parameter of the line.new() function when drawing the upward trend lines. It determines the visual appearance of the upward trend lines on the chart.
'down_trend_color' is an input parameter for the script that specifies the color to use for drawing the trend lines that are determined to be downward trends. The value of 'down_trend_color' is set by the user when they configure the script and is passed to the color parameter of the line.new() function when drawing the downward trend lines. It determines the visual appearance of the downward trend lines on the chart.
'pivothigh' is a variable in the script that stores the value of the pivot high point. It is calculated using the pivothigh() function, which returns the highest high over a specified number of bars. The value of 'pivothigh' is used in the calculation of the trend lines.
'pivotlow' is a variable in the script that stores the value of the pivot low point. It is calculated using the pivotlow() function, which returns the lowest low over a specified number of bars. The value of 'pivotlow' is used in the calculation of the trend lines.
'trend_top_values' is an array in the script that stores the values of the pivot points that are determined to be at the top of the trend. These are the pivot points that are used to calculate the upward trend lines.
'trend_top_position' is an array in the script that stores the positions (i.e., bar indices) of the pivot points that are stored in the 'trend_top_values' array. These positions correspond to the locations of the pivot points on the chart.
'trend_bottom_values' is an array in the script that stores the values of the pivot points that are determined to be at the bottom of the trend. These are the pivot points that are used to calculate the downward trend lines.
'trend_bottom_position' is an array in the script that stores the positions (i.e., bar indices) of the pivot points that are stored in the 'trend_bottom_values' array. These positions correspond to the locations of the pivot points on the chart.
apointer1 and apointer2 are variables used in the add_to_array() function, which is defined in the script. They are both pointers to arrays, meaning that they hold the memory addresses of the arrays rather than the arrays themselves. They are used to manipulate the arrays by adding new elements to the beginning of the arrays and removing elements from the end of the arrays.
apointer1 is a pointer to an array of floating-point values, while apointer2 is a pointer to an array of integers. The specific arrays that they point to depend on the arguments passed to the add_to_array() function when it is called. For example, if add_to_array(trend_top_values, trend_top_posisiton, pivothigh) is called, then apointer1 would point to the tval array and apointer2 would point to the tpos array.
'bottom_lines' (short for "Bottom Lines") is an array in the script that stores the line objects for the downward trend lines that are drawn on the chart. Each element of the array corresponds to a different trend line.
'top_lines' (short for "Top Lines") is an array in the script that stores the line objects for the upward trend lines that are drawn on the chart. Each element of the array corresponds to a different trend line.
Both 'bottom_lines' and 'top_lines' are arrays of type "line", which is a data type in PineScript that represents a line drawn on a chart. The line objects are created using the line.new() function and are used to draw the trend lines on the chart. The variables are used to store the line objects so that they can be manipulated and deleted later in the script.
Loops
maxline is a variable in the script that specifies the maximum number of trend lines that can be drawn on the chart. It is used to determine the size of the bottom_lines and top_lines arrays, which store the line objects for the trend lines.
The value of maxline is set to 3 at the beginning of the script, meaning that at most 3 trend lines can be drawn on the chart at a time. This value can be changed by the user if desired by modifying the assignment statement "maxline = 3".
'count_line_low' (short for "Count Line Low") is a variable in the script that keeps track of the number of downward trend lines that have been drawn on the chart. It is used to ensure that the maximum number of trend lines (as specified by the maxline variable) is not exceeded.
'count_line_high' (short for "Count Line High") is a variable in the script that keeps track of the number of upward trend lines that have been drawn on the chart. It is used to ensure that the maximum number of trend lines (as specified by the maxline variable) is not exceeded.
Both 'count_line_low' and 'count_line_high' are initialized to 0 at the beginning of the script and are incremented each time a new trend line is drawn. If either variable exceeds the value of maxline, then no more trend lines are drawn.
'pivot1', 'up_val1', 'up_val2', up1, and up2 are variables used in the loop that calculates the downward trend lines in the script. They are used to store intermediate values during the calculation process.
'pivot1' is a loop variable that is used to iterate through the pivot points (stored in the trend_bottom_values and trend_bottom_position arrays) that are being considered for use in the trend line calculation.
'up_val1' and 'up_val2' are variables that store the values of the pivot points that are used to calculate the downward trend line.
up1 and up2 are variables that store the positions (i.e., bar indices) of the pivot points that are stored in 'up_val1' and 'up_val2', respectively. These positions correspond to the locations of the pivot points on the chart.
'value1' and 'value2' are variables that are used to store the values of the pivot points that are being compared in the loop that calculates the trend lines in the script. They are used to determine whether a trend line can be drawn between the two pivot points.
For example, if 'value1' is the value of a pivot point at the top of the trend and 'value2' is the value of a pivot point at the bottom of the trend, then a trend line can be drawn between the two points if 'value1' is greater than 'value2'. The values of 'value1' and 'value2' are used in the calculation of the slope and intercept of the trend line.
'position1' and 'position2' are variables that are used to store the positions (i.e., bar indices) of the pivot points that are being compared in the loop that calculates the trend lines in the script. They are used to determine the distance between the pivot points, which is necessary for calculating the slope of the trend line.
For example, if 'position1' is the position of a pivot point at the top of the trend and 'position2' is the position of a pivot point at the bottom of the trend, then the distance between the two points is given by 'position1' - 'position2'. This distance is used in the calculation of the slope of the trend line.
'different', 'high_line', 'low_location', 'low_value', and 'valid' are variables that are used in the loop that calculates the downward trend lines in the script. They are used to store intermediate values during the calculation process.
'different' is a variable that stores the slope of the downward trend line being calculated. It is calculated as the difference in value between the two pivot points (stored in up_val1 and up_val2) divided by the distance between the pivot points (calculated using their positions, stored in up1 and up2).
'high_line' is a variable that stores the current value of the trend line being calculated at a given point in the loop. It is initialized to the value of the second pivot point (stored in up_val2) and is updated on each iteration of the loop using the value of different.
'low_location' is a variable that stores the position (i.e., bar_index) on the chart of the point where the trend line being calculated first touches the low price. It is initialized to the position of the second pivot point (stored in up2) and is updated on each iteration of the loop if the trend line touches a lower low.
'low_value' is a variable that stores the value of the trend line at the point where it first touches the low price. It is initialized to the value of the second pivot point (stored in up_val2) and is updated on each iteration of the loop if the trend line touches a lower low.
'valid' is a Boolean variable that is used to indicate whether the trend line being calculated is valid. It is initialized to true and is set to false if the trend line does not pass through all the lows between the pivot points. If valid is still true after the loop has completed, then the trend line is considered valid and is drawn on the chart.
d_value1, d_value2, d_position1, and d_position2 are variables that are used in the loop that calculates the upward trend lines in the script. They are used to store intermediate values during the calculation process.
d_value1 and d_value2 are variables that store the values of the pivot points that are used to calculate the upward trend line.
d_position1 and d_position2 are variables that store the positions (i.e., bar indices) of the pivot points that are stored in d_value1 and d_value2, respectively. These positions correspond to the locations of the pivot points on the chart.
The variables d_value1, d_value2, d_position1, and d_position2 have the same function as the variables uv1, uv2, up1, and up2, respectively, but for the calculation of the upward trend lines rather than the downward trend lines. They are used in a similar way to store intermediate values during the calculation process.
thank you.
Trend-Quality IndicatorBINANCE:BTCUSDT
Open source version of the Trend-Quality Indicator as described by David Sepiashvili in [ Stocks & Commodities V. 22:4 (14-20) ]
Q-Indicator and B-Indicator are available both separately or together
█ OVERVIEW
The Trend-Quality indicator is a trend detection and estimation tool that is based on a two-step filtering technique. It measures cumulative price changes over term-oriented semicycles and relates them to “noise”. The approach reveals congestion and trending periods of the price movement and focuses on the most important trends, evaluating their strength in the process. The indicator is presented in a centered oscillator (Q-Indicator) and banded oscillator format (B-Indicator).
Semicycles are determined by using a short term and a longer term EMAs. The starting points for the cycles are determined by the moving averages crossover.
Cumulative price change (CPC) indicator measures the amount that the price has changed from a fixed starting point within a given semicycle. The CPC indicator is calculated as a cumulative sum of differences between the current and previous prices over the period from the fixed starting point.
The trend within the given semicycle can be found by calculating the moving average of the cumulative price change.
The noise can be defined as the average deviation of the cumulative price change from the trend. To determine linear noise, we calculate the absolute value of the difference between CPC and trend, and then smooth it over the n-point period. The root mean square noise, similar to the conventional standard deviation, can be derived by summing the squares of the difference between CPC and trend over each of the preceding n-point periods, dividing the sum by n, and calculating the square root of the result.
█ Q-INDICATOR
The Q-Indicator is a centered oscillator that fluctuates around a zero line with no upper or lower limits, is calculated by dividing trend by noise.
The Q-Indicator is intended to measure trend activity. The further the Q is from 0, the less the risk of trading with a trend, and the more reliable the trading opportunity. Values exceeding +2 or -2 can be qualified as promising
Values:
in the -1 to +1 range (GRAY) indicate that the trend is buried beneath noise. It is preferable to stay out of this zone
in the +1 to +2 or -1 to -2 range (YELLOW) indicate weak trending
in the +2 to +5 range (BLUE) or -2 to -5 range (ORANGE) indicate moderate trending
above +5 range (GREEN) or below -5 (RED) indicate strong trending
Readings exceeding strong trending levels can indicate overbought or oversold conditions and signal that price action should be monitored closely.
█ B-INDICATOR
The B-Indicator is a banded oscillator that fluctuates between 0 and 100, is calculated by dividing the absolute value of trend by noise added to absolute value of trend, and scaling the result appropriately.
The B-indicator doesn’t show the direction of price movement, but only the existence of the trend and its strength. It requires additional tools for reversal manifestations.
The indicator’s interpretation is simple. The central line suggests that the trend and noise are in equilibrium (trend is equal to noise).
Values:
below 50 (GRAY) indicate ranging market
in the 50 to 65 range (YELLOW) indicate weak trending
in the 65 to 80 range (BLUE) indicate moderate trending
above 80 (GREEN) indicate strong trending
The 65 level can be thought of as the demarcation line of trending and ranging markets and can help determine which type of technical analysis indicator (lagging or leading) is better suited to current market conditions. Readings exceeding strong trending levels can indicate overbought or oversold conditions.
Trend Type Indicator by BobRivera990Usage:
The purpose of this indicator is to programmatically determine the type of price trend using technical analysis tools.
You can do a quick check on the asset’s higher and lower time frames. For example, if you are trading on an H1 chart, you can check the m5 chart to ensure that the trend is in the same direction and similarly check the H4 chart to ensure that the higher time frame price is also moving in the same direction.
If multiple time frame charts confirm a similar trend, then it is considered a very strong trend and ideal for Trend trading.
Remarks:
By default, the last status is related to 8 periods before the latest closing price.
Related definitions:
The three basic types of trends are up, down, and sideways.
1. Uptrend
An uptrend describes the price movement of a financial asset when the overall direction is upward. The uptrend is composed of higher swing lows and higher swing highs.
Some market participants ("long" trend traders) only choose to trade during uptrends.
2. Downtrend
A downtrend refers to the price action of a security that moves lower in price as it fluctuates over time.
The downtrend is composed of lower swing lows and lower swing highs.
3. Sideways
A sideways trend is the horizontal price movement that occurs when the forces of supply and demand are nearly equal. This typically occurs during a period of consolidation before the price continues a prior trend or reverses into a new trend.
How it works:
Step 1: Sideways Trend Detection
In this step we want to distinguish the sideways trend from uptrend and downtrend. For this purpose, we use two common technical analysis tools: ATR and ADX
1. Average True Range (ATR)
The average true range (ATR) is a technical analysis indicator that measures market volatility.
We also use a 20-period moving average of the ATR.
When the ATR is below the average of its last 20-periods, it means that the rate of price volatility has decreased and we conclude that the current trend is sideways
2. Average Directional Index (ADX)
The average directional index (ADX) is a technical analysis indicator used by some traders to determine the strength of a trend.
The trend has strength when ADX is above 25.
So when the ADX is less than or equal to 25, there is no strong trend, and we conclude that the current type of trend is sideways.
Step 2: Detect uptrend from downtrend
If it turns out that the current price trend is not sideways, then it is either uptrend or downtrend.
For this purpose, we use plus and minus directional Indicators (+ DI & -DI).
A general interpretation would be that during a strong trend, when +DI is higher than -DI, it is an uptrend. When -DI is higher than +DI, it is a downtrend.

Trend ChannelMarket engineers can use channels to find out when a market has entered an undervalued or overvalued zone. Purchases and sales take place in these zones. Professionals use trending channels to find out when the market has overtaken itself and where it is likely to reverse.
Upper channel line = EMA + EMA x channel coefficient
Lower channel line = EMA - EMA x channel coefficient
The topline reflects the bulls' strength in raising prices above the average value consensus. This line marks the normal limit of optimism in the market.
The bottom line of the channel reflects the strength of the bears pushing prices below the average consensus of values. This line marks the normal limit of pessimism in the market.
The coefficient is used to correct the distance to the moving average until the channel contains 95% of all prices. Only the tips and the lowest bottoms are allowed to protrude. For these peaks and curves and sideways trends, I have added two more switchable lines to the border lines, with a distance of 23.6% (light blue).
The larger the time frame, the wider the channel.
If you buy near a rising moving average, you take profits near the upper line of the channel.
If you are short near a falling moving average, you should close out near the bottom of the channel.
If the moving average is essentially flat, then you should be long on the bottom of the channel and short on the top of the channel. You realize profits when the prices have returned to their moving average to normal.
Interesting for day traders:
Adjust the moving average so that it has the same slope as the quotes on the hourly chart. With the coefficient you set the distance between the border lines. Perhaps adding the 23.6% lines will help, where the sideways trends are starting. Set the resolution to "1 hour". If you want to trade with these settings in short time units, e.g. in the 3 minute chart or in the 1 minute chart, then you now have target marks and indications in which direction the prices will possibly move when the prices have reached the moving average or one of the border lines.

The indicator has an additional exponential moving average with adjustable period, adjustable shift and adjustable source for the narrow range of quotations and final determination of direction.
The chart shows how the trend channel and the Fibonacc trading indicator can complement each other.

Markttechniker können Kanäle verwenden um heraus zu finden, wann ein Markt eine unterbewertete oder überbewertete Zone erreicht hat. An diesen Zonen finden Käufe und Verkäufe statt. Profis benutzen Trendkanäle um herauszufinden, wann der Markt sich selbst überholt hat und wo er wahrscheinlich eine Umkehrbewegung vollziehen wird.
Obere Kanallinie = EMA + EMA x Kanalkoeffizient
Untere Kanallinie = EMA - EMA x Kanalkoeffizient
Die Oberlinie reflektiert die Kraft der Bullen, mit der sie die Kurse über den durchschnittlichen Wertekonsens anheben. Diese Linie kennzeichnet die normale Grenze des Optimismus im Markt.
Die untere Linie des Kanals reflektiert die Kraft der Bären, mit der sie die Kurse unter den durchschnittlichen Wertekonsens drücken. Diese Linie kennzeichnet die normale Grenze des Pessimismus im Markt.
Mit dem Koeffizienten wird der Abstand zum gleitenden Durchschnitt so lange korrigiert, bis der Kanal 95% aller Kurse enthält. Lediglich die Spitzen und die niedrigsten Böden dürfen herausragen. Für diese Spitzen und Bögen und Seitwärtstrends habe ich zu den Grenzlinien zwei weitere zuschaltbare Linien, mit einem Abstand von 23,6%, hinzugefügt (hellblau).
Je größer der Zeitrahmen ist, um so breiter ist der Kanal.
Wenn Sie in der Nähe eines ansteigenden gleitenden Durchschnitts kaufen, nehmen Sie die Gewinne in der Nähe der oberen Grenzlinie des Kanals mit.
Wenn Sie in der Nähe eines fallenden gleitenden Durchschnitts leerverkaufen, sollten Sie in der Nähe der unteren Grenzlinie des Kanals glattstellen.
Wenn der gleitende Durchschnitt im Wesentlichen flach ist, dann sollten Sie an der unteren Kanalbegrenzung eine Long-Position und an der oberen Kanalbegrenzung eine Short-Position einnehmen. Gewinne realisieren Sie jeweils, wenn die Kurse zu ihrem gleitenden Durchschnitt, zur Normalität zurückgekehrt sind.
Für Daytrader interessant:
Stellen Sie den gleitenden Durchschnitt so ein, dass er die gleiche Steigung wie die Notierungen im Stunden-Chart hat. Mit dem Koeffizienten Stellen Sie den Abstand der Grenzlinien ein. Vielleicht hilft die Zuschaltung der 23,6%-Linien, wo die Seitwärtstrends anstoßen. Stellen Sie die Auflösung auf „1 Stunde“. Wenn Sie mit diesen Einstellungen in niedrigen Zeiteinheiten traden wollen, z.B. im 3 Minuten-Chart oder im 1 Minuten-Chart, dann haben Sie jetzt Zielmarken und Hinweise in welche Richtung die Notierungen möglicherweise laufen werden, wenn die Notierungen den gleitenden Durchschnitt oder eine der Grenzlinien erreicht haben.
Der Text enthält Auszüge aus „Come into my Trading Room“ von Dr. Alexander Elder.
Der Indikator besitzt zur engen Umfang der Notierungen und endgültigen Richtungsbestimmung einen zusätzlichen exponentiellen gleitenden Durchschnitt mit einstellbarer Periode, einstellbarer Verschiebung und einstellbarer Quelle.
Der Chart zeigt wie sich Trendkanal und Fibonacc-Trading-Indikator ergänzen könne.

Trend FollowerHello Traders!
While analysing the charts, one of the biggest problem is to see if there is trend or not, or is it in a congestion zone/area? While thinking about it, I found the idea to analyse moving averages in channel and their momentum according to channel width.
How it calculates and works?
On each bar it creates a channel by highest/lowest point of a MA. highest point is upper point and lowest point is lower point of the MA channel,
It gets highest and lowest point of last 300 bars, (say Price Channel )
If the width of MA channel is greater than certain rate of price channel then it decides there is trend
After it decided there is trend, it calculates the rate between channel and MA. Bigger result means stronger trend.
According to rate of MA channel and the price channel , bar color becomes lighter/darker. so when you look at the bar color you can see the trend strength.
Short explanation on the chart:
Also by changing channel or size other options (such MA length etc) you can see congestion zones/areas:
Another one, about trend direction and its strength:
Options:
You can choose following MA types as source: EMA, SMA , RMA, WMA , VWMA
"Period to Check Trend" is the period to create MA channel. Bigger period cause more sensitivity.
MA Period is the Length of the MA that will be checked
"Trend Channel Rate %" is rate of price channel . Price channel created by using highest/lowest of last 300 bars. I did this to make the script works on all time frames correctly.
"Use Linear Regression" is used to get rid of noise. it may cause 1-2 bars latency. (I use it)
The idea was created by LonesomeTheBlue.
Enjoy!
Trend LengthScript tries to capture the length of trends. It calculates an SMA and then determines the slope of the SMA using a simple momentum function. From there it counts bars from when the slope changed directions last. The lime green line is the count from when the slope changed. The yellow line is the average time of a trend. The white line is "trying" to capture the length of a full healthy pip running trend. Pick and SMA you like and then run through many currencies. I find that trends tend to be the same length. Not surprising as the markets are extremely correlated to each other. The trick is to find the most active pair for action. To do that look up my Pairs Range script.
Comments are welcome.
Trend Strength MeterThe Trend Strength Meter (TSM) is a powerful and versatile indicator designed to help traders identify market trends, measure their strength, and detect potential reversals with ease. This indicator combines the power of moving averages, divergence detection, and a clean, customizable dashboard to provide actionable insights for traders of all levels.
How It Works
Trend Strength Calculation:
1. The TSM calculates the trend strength using the difference between two Exponential Moving Averages (EMAs): a fast EMA (default: 20) and a slow EMA (default: 50).
2. The difference is expressed as a percentage of the slow EMA, providing a clear measure of the trend's strength and direction.
Histogram Visualization:
1. A color-coded histogram visually represents the trend strength:
Green: Bullish trend
Red: Bearish trend
Gray: Neutral or no significant trend
2. A smoothed trend strength line (SMA of the trend strength) is also plotted for better clarity.
Divergence Detection:
1. The indicator detects bullish and bearish divergences using the RSI (Relative Strength Index) and price action.
2. Bullish Divergence: Price makes a lower low, but RSI makes a higher low, signaling potential upward momentum.
3. Bearish Divergence: Price makes a higher high, but RSI makes a lower high, signaling potential downward momentum.
=> Divergences are marked with arrows on the chart:
Green Arrow: Bullish divergence
Red Arrow: Bearish divergence
Dashboard:
1. A clean and informative dashboard displays key information:
Trend Strength Value: The current strength of the trend
Trend Direction: Bullish, Bearish, or Neutral
Last Signal: Buy, Sell, or None (based on divergence signals)
The dashboard is fully customizable and can be positioned anywhere on the chart (e.g., top-right, bottom-left, center, etc.).
Key Features
1. Trend Strength Measurement: Quickly identify the strength and direction of the trend.
2. Divergence Detection: Spot potential reversals before they occur with bullish and bearish divergence signals.
3. Customizable Dashboard: Move the dashboard to your preferred location on the chart for better visibility.
4. User-Friendly Design: Clean visuals and intuitive color coding make it easy to interpret market conditions.
5. Actionable Signals: Provides clear Buy/Sell signals based on divergence, helping traders make informed decisions.
How to Use
1. Trend Confirmation:
Use the histogram and trend strength value to confirm the current market trend.
Green bars indicate a bullish trend, while red bars indicate a bearish trend.
2. Divergence Signals:
Look for divergence arrows (green for bullish, red for bearish) to anticipate potential reversals.
Combine divergence signals with other technical analysis tools for higher accuracy.
3. Dashboard Insights:
Monitor the dashboard for real-time updates on trend strength, direction, and the latest signal.
Use the "Last Signal" (Buy/Sell) to validate your trading decisions.
4. Custom Settings:
Adjust the EMA lengths and divergence lookback period to suit your trading style and timeframe.
Position the dashboard anywhere on the chart for convenience.
Best Practices
1. Use the TSM in conjunction with other indicators or price action analysis for confirmation.
2. Test the indicator on different timeframes to find the one that works best for your strategy.
3. Always practice proper risk management when trading.
