Bull Bear Power With EMA FilterDescription of Indicator:
This Pine Script indicator colors price bars based on the open price in relation to custom moving averages (EMA/SMA), Bull/Bear Power (BBPower), and an optional VWAP filter. The bar colors help identify bullish and bearish conditions with added visual cues for price positioning relative to VWAP.
Key Features:
Customizable Moving Averages (EMA/SMA):
The user can select between EMA or SMA for both short-term and long-term moving averages.
Default moving averages are set to 5 (short-term) and 9 (long-term) but can be adjusted by the user.
Bullish Condition (Blue or Purple Bars):
A bar is colored blue if the following conditions are met:
The open price is above both the short-term and long-term moving averages.
The short-term moving average (MA 1) is above the long-term moving average (MA 2).
BBPower (open price minus the 13-period EMA) is positive, indicating bullish strength.
If the VWAP filter is enabled and the price opens below VWAP, the bullish bars will turn purple.
Bearish Condition (Yellow or Orange Bars):
A bar is colored yellow if the following conditions are met:
The open price is below both the short-term and long-term moving averages.
The short-term moving average (MA 1) is below the long-term moving average (MA 2).
BBPower is negative or zero, indicating bearish market conditions.
If the VWAP filter is enabled and the price opens above VWAP, the bearish bars will turn orange.
VWAP Filter (Optional):
An optional filter allows the user to add VWAP (Volume-Weighted Average Price) to the bar coloring logic.
When the VWAP filter is enabled, it provides additional information about price positioning relative to VWAP, turning bullish bars purple and bearish bars orange depending on whether the price opens above or below VWAP.
Usage:
Bullish Trend: Look for blue or purple bars to identify potential bullish momentum.
Bearish Trend: Look for yellow or orange bars to spot bearish conditions in the market.
The indicator allows users to customize the length and type of moving averages (EMA or SMA), as well as decide whether to apply the VWAP filter.
This indicator provides traders with clear visual signals to quickly assess the strength of bullish or bearish conditions based on the price's position relative to custom moving averages, BBPower, and VWAP, helping with trend identification and potential trade setups.

MTF HalfTrendIntroduction
A half-trend indicator is a technical analysis tool that uses moving averages and price data to find potential trend reversal and entry points in the form of graphical arrows showing market turning points.
The salient features of this indicator are:
- It uses the phenomenon of moving averages.
- It is a momentum indicator.
- It can indicate a trend change.
- It is capable of detecting a bullish or bearish trend reversal.
- It can signal to sell/buy.
- It is a real-time indicator.
Multi-Timeframe Application
A standout feature is its flexibility across timeframes. Traders have the liberty to choose any timeframe on the chart, enhancing the tool's versatility and making it suitable for both short-term and long-term analyses.
Principle of the Half Trend indicator
This indicator is based on the moving averages. The moving average is the average of the fluctuation or change in the price of an asset. These averages are taken for a time interval.
So, a half-trend indicator takes the moving averages phenomenon as its principle for working. The most commonly used moving averages in a half trend indicator are:
- Relative strength index (RSI)
- EMA (estimated moving average)
Components of a Half Trend indicator
There are two main components of a half trend indicator:
- Half trend line
- Arrows
- ATR lines
Half trend line
Half trend line represents this indicator on a candlestick chart. This line shows the trend of a chart in real-time. A half-trend line is based on the moving averages.
There are two further components of a half-trend line:
- Redline
- Blue line
A red line represents a bearish trend. When the half-trend line turns red, a trend is facing a dip. It is time for the bears to take control of the market. A bearish control of the market represents the domination of sellers in the market.
On the other hand, the blue line represents the bullish nature of the market. It tells a trader that the bullish sentiment of the market is prevailing. A bullish market means the number of buyers is significantly greater than the number of sellers.
Moreover, a trader can change these colors to his choice by customization.
Arrows
There are two types of arrows in this indicator which help a trader with the entry and exit points. These arrows are,
- Blue arrow
- Red arrow
A blue arrow signals a buying trade; on the other hand, a red arrow tells a trader about the selling of the assets. These arrows work with the moving average line to formulate a trading strategy.
The color of these arrows is changed if a trader desires so.
ATR lines
The ATR blue and red lines represent the Average True Range of the Half trend line. They may be used as stop loss or take profit levels.
Pros and Cons
Pros
- It is a very easy to eyes indicator.
- This is a very useful friendly indicator.
- It provides sufficient information to beginner traders.
- It provides sufficient information for entry points in a trade.
- A half-trend indicator provides a good exit strategy for a trader.
- It provides information about market reversals.
- It helps a trader to find a bullish and bearish sentiment in the market.
Cons
- It is a real-time indicator. So, it can lag.
- The lagging of this indicator can lead to miss opportunities.
- The most advanced and professional traders may not rely on this indicator for crucial trading decisions.
- The lagging of this indicator can predict false reversals of the market.
- It can create false signals.
- It requires the confluence of the other technical tools for a better success ratio.
Settings for Half Trend indicator
The default settings for half trend indicator are:
Amplitude = 2
Channel deviation = 2
Different markets or financial instruments may require different settings for optimal execution.
Amplitude: The degree that the Half trend line takes the internal variables into consideration. The higher the number, the fewer trades. The default value is 2.
Channel deviation: The ATR value calculation from the Half trend line. The default value is 2.
Trading strategy
It is an effective indicator in terms of strategy formation for a trading setup. The new and beginner trades can take benefit from this indicator for the formulation of a good trading setup. This indicator also helps seasoned and professional traders formulate a good trading setup with other technical tools.
The trading strategy involving a half-trend indicator is divided into three parts:
- Entry and exit
- Risk management
- Take profit
Entry and exit
It is an effective indicator that provides sufficient information about the entry and exit points in a trading setup. The profit of a trader is directly proportional to the appropriate entry and exit points. So, it is a crucial step in any trading setup.
The blue and red arrows provide information about the entry and exit points in a trading setup. Furthermore, the entry and exit for the bullish and bearish setups are as follows.
Entry and exit for a bullish setup
If a blue arrow appears under the half-trend line, it means the bullish sentiment of the market is getting stronger in the future. So, it is a signal for entry in a bullish setup.
As the red arrow appears on the chart, it is a signal to exit your trade. The red arrow represents a reversal in the market, so it is a good opportunity to close your trade in a bullish setup.
Entry and exit for a bearish setup
Suppose a red arrow appears above the red moving average line. It is a good opportunity to enter a trade in a bearish setup. The red line represents that sooner the sellers are going to take control and the value of the asset is about to face a dip. So it is the best time to make your move.
As the opposite arrow appears in the chart, it is time to exit from a bearish trade setup.
Re-entering a position
Bullish setup
- The half-trend line is blue.
- At least one candle closes below the blue half-trend line.
- Enter on the candle that closes above the blue half-trend line.
Bearish setup
- The half-trend line is red.
- At least one candle closes above the red half-trend line.
- Enter on the candle that closes below the red half-trend line.
Risk management
Risk management is an integral part of a trading setup. It is an important step to protect your potential profits and losses.
When trading in a bullish market, place the stop loss at the prior swing low. It will help you to cut your losses in case the prices move to the lower end.
In the case of a bearish market, place your stop loss above the prior swing high.
A trader may trail the stop loss using the ATR lines.
The new trader often makes mistakes in the placement of the stop loss. If you don’t place the stop loss at an appropriate point. It can drain your bank account and ruin your trading experience. Is is recommended not to risk more than 2% of your trading account, per trade.
Take profit
The blue ATR line may be used as one take profit level on a bullish setup followed by the previous swing high. The signal reversal would indicate the final take profit and closing of any position.
The red ATR line may be used as one take profit level on a bearish setup followed by the previous swing low. The signal reversal would indicate the final take profit and closing of any position.
Conclusion
A half trend indicator is a decent indicator that can transform your trading experience. It is a dual indicator that is based on the moving averages as well as helps you to form a trading strategy. If you are a new trader, this indicator can help you to learn and flourish in the trading universe. If you are a seasoned trader, I recommend you use this indicator with other technical analysis tools to enhance your success ratio.

Trend_Trader_WMA (Momentum)<---> Caution! This is first test version of indicator. I am ready to get more ideas+feedback to develop it more. <--->
The "Momentum_Trader_WMA" indicator is a versatile technical analysis tool designed to help traders identify potential trend changes and momentum shifts in the market. It combines multiple indicators and moving averages to provide a comprehensive view of price action and momentum.
Key Features:
Weighted Moving Averages (WMAs): The indicator calculates two different WMAs with user-defined lengths, providing a smoothed representation of price data.
Average True Range (ATR) Bands: ATR is used to calculate dynamic bands around the WMA Average. These bands can help traders gauge market volatility and potential breakout points. The color of the ATR bands can be seen as an early signal of trends or the continuation of current trends.
Commodity Channel Index (CCI): CCI is a momentum oscillator that measures the relative strength of price changes. The indicator calculates CCI values based on a user-defined period.
Exponential Moving Average (EMA) of CCI: An EMA of CCI is plotted to help identify trends and momentum shifts.
Color-Coded Bands: The ATR bands change colors based on CCI conditions, providing visual cues for potential trading opportunities. When ATR bands transition from narrow (indicating low volatility) to wide (indicating increased volatility), it can be seen as an early signal of a potential trend change or the continuation of the current trend.
Buy and Sell Signals: The indicator generates buy and sell signals based on crossovers of WMAs and CCI thresholds, making it easier for traders to identify entry and exit points.
Customizable Moving Averages: Traders can enable or disable different moving averages (e.g., SMA, EMA, WMA, RMA, VWMA, HMA) with various periods and colors to adapt the indicator to their trading preferences.
CCI Dot Alerts: Dots are displayed at the bottom of the chart based on CCI values, helping traders spot extreme CCI conditions.
How to Use:
Trend Identification: The WMAs and ATR bands can help identify the current trend direction and its strength. When the WMAs are in an uptrend (green) and the ATR bands widen, it may indicate a strong bullish trend. Conversely, when the WMAs are in a downtrend (red) and the ATR bands narrow, it may suggest a weakening bearish trend.
Momentum Confirmation: The CCI and its EMA provide insights into market momentum. Look for CCI crossovers above 100 for potential bullish momentum and below -100 for potential bearish momentum.
Buy and Sell Signals: Pay attention to the buy and sell signals generated by the indicator. Buy when the WMAs cross over and CCI crosses above 100. Sell when the WMAs cross under and CCI crosses below -100.
ATR Bands as Early Signals: The color changes in the ATR bands can be seen as early signals of trends or the continuation of current trends. Wide ATR bands may indicate increased volatility and potential trend changes, while narrow ATR bands suggest reduced volatility and potential trend continuation.
Moving Averages: Customize the indicator by enabling or disabling specific moving averages according to your preferred trading strategy.
CCI Dots: Use the CCI dots to identify extreme CCI conditions, which may indicate overbought or oversold market conditions.
PS:
Recommended to use Indicator with price action conecpts(eg. support and resistance) as they play important role in any market.
Buy and sell signals are not really accurate. I would personally look for trend shift in WMA middle line and confirmation from CCI dots at bottom. For example. If middle line turns green and within recent 3-4 candles (or next 3-4 candles) dots tunrns green also, that means momentum has been rised in the direction of bulls.
pls, take s/r concepts first when working. I am thinking to add more precise buy sell signal method to make it easier to trade.
Good luck with your trades :)
CT Moving Average Crossover IndicatorMoving Average Crossover Indicator
Here I present a moving average indicator with 9 user definable moving averages from which up to 5 pairs can be selected to show what prices would need to be closed at on the current bar to cross each individual pair.
I have put much emphasis here on simplicity of setting the parameters of the moving averages, selecting the crossover pairs and on the clarity of the displayed information in the optional “Moving Average Crossover Level” Information Box.
What Is a Moving Average (MA)?
According to Investopedia - “In statistics, a moving average is a calculation used to analyze data points by creating a series of averages of different subsets of the full data set.
In finance, a moving average (MA) is a stock indicator that is commonly used in technical analysis. The reason for calculating the moving average of a stock is to help smooth out the price data by creating a constantly updated average price.
By calculating the moving average, the impacts of random, short-term fluctuations on the price of a stock over a specified time-frame are mitigated.”
The user can set the color, type (SMA/EMA) and length of each of the 9 moving averages.
Then the user may choose 5 pairs of moving averages from the set of 9.
The script will then calculate the price needed to be crossed by the close of the current bar in order to crossover each of the user defined pairs and outputs the results as optional lineplots and/or an Infobox which shows the relevant information in a very clear way.
The user may switch the moving averages, crossover lineplots and infobox on and off easily with one click boxes in the settings menu.
The number of decimal places shown in the Infobox can be altered in the settings menu.
If the price required to cross a pair of moving averages is zero or less, the crossover level will display “Impossible” and the plots will plot at zero. (this helps ameliorate chart auto-focus issues)
Quoting a variety of online resources …….
Understanding Moving Averages (MA)
Moving averages are a simple, technical analysis tool. Moving averages are usually calculated to identify the trend direction of a stock or to determine its support and resistance levels. It is a trend-following—or lagging—indicator because it is based on past prices.
The longer the time period for the moving average, the greater the lag. So, a 200-day moving average will have a much greater degree of lag than a 20-day MA because it contains prices for the past 200 days. The 50-day and 200-day moving average figures for stocks are widely followed by investors and traders and are considered to be important trading signals.
Moving averages are a totally customizable indicator, which means that an investor can freely choose whatever time frame they want when calculating an average. The most common time periods used in moving averages are 15, 20, 30, 50, 100, and 200 days. The shorter the time span used to create the average, the more sensitive it will be to price changes. The longer the time span, the less sensitive the average will be.
Investors may choose different time periods of varying lengths to calculate moving averages based on their trading objectives. Shorter moving averages are typically used for short-term trading, while longer-term moving averages are more suited for long-term investors.
There is no correct time frame to use when setting up your moving averages. The best way to figure out which one works best for you is to experiment with a number of different time periods until you find one that fits your strategy.
Predicting trends in the stock market is no simple process. While it is impossible to predict the future movement of a specific stock, using technical analysis and research can help you make better predictions.
A rising moving average indicates that the security is in an uptrend, while a declining moving average indicates that it is in a downtrend. Similarly, upward momentum is confirmed with a bullish crossover, which occurs when a short-term moving average crosses above a longer-term moving average. Conversely, downward momentum is confirmed with a bearish crossover, which occurs when a short-term moving average crosses below a longer-term moving average.
Types of Moving Averages
Simple Moving Average (SMA)
The simplest form of a moving average, known as a simple moving average (SMA), is calculated by taking the arithmetic mean of a given set of values. In other words, a set of numbers–or prices in the case of financial instruments–are added together and then divided by the number of prices in the set.
Exponential Moving Average (EMA)
The exponential moving average is a type of moving average that gives more weight to recent prices in an attempt to make it more responsive to new information.
To calculate an EMA, you must first compute the simple moving average (SMA) over a particular time period. Next, you must calculate the multiplier for weighting the EMA (referred to as the "smoothing factor"), which typically follows the formula: 2/(selected time period + 1). So, for a 20-day moving average, the multiplier would be 2/(20+1)= 0.0952. Then you use the smoothing factor combined with the previous EMA to arrive at the current value.
The EMA thus gives a higher weighting to recent prices, while the SMA assigns equal weighting to all values.
PLAIN VAMSThe PLAIN VAMS (Volatility-Adjusted Momentum Score) is a visual tool designed to help traders identify momentum shifts relative to prevailing volatility conditions. Unlike traditional momentum indicators, VAMS adapts dynamically to price fluctuations by comparing current price levels to volatility-based boundaries derived from customizable moving averages.
Key Features:
- Volatility-Adjusted Zones: Prices are evaluated against upper and lower dynamic boundaries, signaling potential overbought or oversold momentum conditions.
Two Modes:
- PLAIN VAMS (default): Uses a longer lookback period for smoother, trend-following behavior.
- RAW VAMS: A shorter lookback for high-sensitivity, intraday or scalping setups.
Customizable Moving Averages:
Choose from multiple MA types (EMA, SMA, WMA, etc.) to match your strategy preferences.
Visual Clarity:
- Color-coded candles for quick signal recognition.
- Optional background shading for immediate context.
- Boundary lines to define momentum thresholds.
How It Works:
The script calculates a moving average (based on user-selected type and period) and applies an upper and lower multiplier to create dynamic price boundaries. When price closes beyond these bands, it suggests a strong directional momentum move. The indicator is fully customizable to adapt to your trading style and timeframe.
Use Cases:
- Identify potential breakouts or trend continuations.
- Filter entries/exits based on momentum strength.
- Combine with other tools for confirmation in your strategy.
This indicator does not repaint or use future-looking data. It’s designed for discretionary and systematic traders looking for an adaptive way to visualize momentum relative to market volatility.
Distance From moving averageDistance From Moving Average is designed to help traders visualize the deviation of the current price from a specified moving average. Users can select from four different types of moving averages: Simple Moving Average (SMA), Exponential Moving Average (EMA), Weighted Moving Average (WMA), and Hull Moving Average (HMA).
Key Features:
User-Friendly Input Options:
Choose the type of moving average from a dropdown menu.
Set the length of the moving average, with a default value of 200.
Custom Moving Average Calculations:
The script computes the selected moving average using the appropriate mathematical formula, allowing for versatile analysis based on individual trading strategies.
Distance Calculation:
The indicator calculates the distance between the current price and the chosen moving average, providing insight into market momentum. A positive value indicates that the price is above the moving average, while a negative value shows it is below.
Visual Representation:
The distance is plotted on the chart, with color coding:
Lime: Indicates that the price is above the moving average (bullish sentiment).
Red: Indicates that the price is below the moving average (bearish sentiment).
Customization:
Users can further customize the appearance of the plotted line, enhancing clarity and visibility on the chart.
This indicator is particularly useful for traders looking to gauge market conditions and make informed decisions based on the relationship between current prices and key moving averages.
[blackcat] L2 Twisted Pair IndicatorOn the grand stage of the financial market, every trader is looking for a partner who can lead them to dance the tango well. The "Twisted Pair" indicator is that partner who dances gracefully in the market fluctuations. It weaves the rhythm of the market with two lines, helping traders to find the rhythm in the market's dance floor.
Imagine when the market is as calm as water, the "Twisted Pair" is like two ribbons tightly intertwined. They almost overlap on the chart, as if whispering: "Now, let's enjoy these quiet dance steps." This is the market consolidation period, the price fluctuation is not significant, traders can relax and slowly savor every detail of the market.
Now, let's describe the market logic of this code in natural language:
- **HJ_1**: This is the foundation of the market dance steps, by calculating the average price and trading volume, setting the tone for the market rhythm.
- **HJ_2** and **HJ_3**: These two lines are the arms of the dance partner, they help traders identify the long-term trend of the market through smoothing.
- **HJ_4**: This is a magnifying glass for market sentiment, it reveals the tension and excitement of the market by calculating the short-term deviation of the price.
- **A7** and **A9**: These two lines are the guide to the dance steps, they separate when the market volatility increases, guiding the traders in the right direction.
- **WATCH**: This is the signal light of the dance, when the two lines overlap, the market is calm; when they separate, the market is active.
The "Twisted Pair" indicator is like a carefully choreographed dance, it allows traders to find their own rhythm in the market dance floor, whether in a calm slow dance or a passionate tango. Remember, the market is always changing, and the "Twisted Pair" is the perfect dance partner that can lead you to dance out brilliant steps.
The script of this "Twisted Pair" uses three different types of moving averages: EMA (Exponential Moving Average), DEMA (Double EMA), and TEMA (Triple EMA). These types can be selected by the user through exchange input.
Here are the main functions of this code:
1. Defined the DEMA and TEMA functions: These two functions are used to calculate the corresponding moving averages. EMA is the exponential moving average, which is a special type of moving average that gives more weight to recent data. In the first paragraph, ema1 is the EMA of "length", and ema2 is the EMA of ema1. DEMA is 2 times of ema1 minus ema2.
2. Let users choose to use EMA, DEMA or TEMA: This part of the code provides an option for users to choose which type of moving average they want to use.
3. Defined an algorithm called "Twisted Pair algorithm": This part of the code defines a complex algorithm to calculate a value called "HJ". This algorithm involves various complex calculations and applications of EMA, DEMA, TEMA.
4. Plotting charts: The following code is used to plot charts on Tradingview. It uses the plot function to draw lines, the plotcandle function to draw candle (K-line) charts, and yellow and red to represent different conditions.
5. Specify colors: The last two lines of code use yellow and red K-line charts to represent the conditions of HJ_7. If the conditions of HJ_7 are met, the color of the K-line chart will change to the corresponding color.
HTF Trend Filter - Dynamic SmoothingSummary of the HTF Trend Filter
The Higher Time Frame (HTF) Trend Filter is a cutting-edge tool crafted for traders who want to scan moving average trend lines time efficiently. At its core, it harnesses the power of dynamic smoothing to present a sleek moving average line regardless of the time frame you’re on.

Trading Idea
The essence of trading lies in confirming assumptions and validating trends. The HTF Trend Dynamic Smoother positions itself as a potential game-changer in this domain. One could consider using the HTF trend dynamic smoother as a supplementary confirmation tool alongside other primary indicators. For instance, if you're plotting a moving average on a lower time frame, toggling the HTF smoother can offer a broader perspective of the trend from a higher time frame. By ensuring alignment between these perspectives, you could potentially trade with increased confidence, reinforcing your lower time frame strategies with higher time frame confirmations. It's worth noting, however, that while this method can offer additional layers of information and validation, it doesn't replace due diligence. Every trade decision should be the culmination of thorough analysis, and no tool should be solely relied upon for decision-making.
Limitations
While the HTF Trend Filter is an exceptional tool, like all tools, it has its constraints. Lower Time Frame Dependency: For the indicator to function optimally, it's paramount to ensure that the time frame open is always lower (or equal) than the one selected in the input parameters. This limitation is crucial to remember as the dynamic smoother's accuracy hinges on this condition.
In conclusion, the HTF Trend Filter - Dynamic Smoothing is a remarkable blend of innovation and efficiency, tailored for traders who demand fast screening of higher time frame MA trends. Due to it simplistic design it gives a user-friendly experience. However, always remember the golden rule of trading: utilize tools as part of a comprehensive strategy, never in isolation.
Moving Average Rainbow (Stormer)This strategy is based and shown by trader and investor Alexandre Wolwacz "Stormer".
Overview
The strategy uses 12 moving averages (default EMA) to identify trends and generate trading signals opening positions.
Allowing to select the type of moving average and length to be used.
The conditions includes relationship between moving averages, the position of the current price relative to the moving averages, and the occurrence of certain price patterns.
Calculation
The mean moving averages is calculated by adding all the 12 moving averages and dividing by 12, the value is used to help to identify trend and possible condition to open position.
The 12 moving averages is spliced by 3 ranges, initial range (moving average lines 1 to 4), middle range (moving average lines 5 to 8) and end range (moving average lines 9 to 12). These ranges helps to identify potential trend and market turn over.
The moving average touch price is a relationship between the low price (uptrend) or high price (downtrend) with the moving average lines, it identifies where the price (low/high) has reached the the moving average line. Fetching the value to help for opening position, set stop loss and take profit.
Since the stop loss is based and set from the previous moving average touch price value, when position is about to be open and setting the stop loss value, there is a verification to check both current and previous moving average touch price to recalculate the stop loss value.
The turnover trend checks for a possible market turnover event, setting up a new profit target, this setting when enabled is to be helpful when a turnover occurs against the position to exit position with some profit based on highest high price if long or lowest low price if short.
The turnover signal is similar to turnover trend. The difference is that when this setting is enabled and it triggers, it simply exit the current position and opens up a reverse position, long goes short and short goes long. And there is an complement optional that checks current price exit profitable.
Entry Position
Long Position:
Price is higher than the mean moving averages. Meaning possible uptrend.
The lines of the middle range from the moving averages are in increasing order. Meaning possible uptrend.
The current high pierced up previous high.
Fetch the previous value of the moving average touch price. Meaning the low price has touched one of the moving average lines, which that value is conditioning to open position.
Short Position:
Price is lower than the mean moving averages. Meaning possible downtrend.
The lines of the middle range from the moving averages are in decreasing order. Meaning possible downtrend.
The current low pierced down previous low.
Fetch the previous value of the moving average touch price. Meaning the high price has touched one of the moving average lines, which that value is conditioning to open position.
Risk Management
Stop Loss:
The stop loss is based from the previous moving average touch price value, high price for short and low price for long or occurs an verification to check for both current and previous moving average touch price value and a recalculation is done to set the stop loss.
Take Profit:
According to the author, the profit target should be at least 1:1.6 the risk, so to have the strategy mathematically positive.
The profit target is configured input, can be increased or decreased.
It calculates the take profit based on the price of the stop loss with the profit target input.
Turnover Trend
Long Position:
The moving averages initial range lines signals a possible market turnover. Meaning long might be going short.
Fetches the highest high hit since the opening of the position, setting that value to the new profit target.
Short Position:
The moving averages initial range lines signals a possible market turnover. Meaning short might be going long.
Fetches the lowest low hit since the opening of the position, setting that value to the new profit target.
Zero Lag Moving Average with Gaussian weightsIntroduction
The Zero Lag Moving Average (ZLMA) is a powerful technical indicator that aims to eliminate the lag inherent in traditional moving averages. This post provides a comprehensive exploration of the ZLMA with Gaussian Weights (GWMA) indicator, discussing the concepts, the calculations, and its application in trading.
Concepts
Zero Lag Moving Average (ZLMA): A ZLMA is an advanced moving average designed to reduce the lag in price movements associated with conventional moving averages. This reduction in lag enables traders to make more informed decisions based on the most recent price data.
Gaussian Weights: Gaussian weights are derived from the Gaussian function, which is a mathematical function used to calculate probabilities in a normal distribution. The Gaussian function is smooth, symmetric, and has a bell-shaped curve. In this context, Gaussian weights are used to calculate the weighted average of a series of data points.
Why Gaussian Weights are Beneficial
Gaussian Weights offer several advantages in comparison to traditional moving averages. One of the main reasons for using Gaussian Weights is to address the issue of lag, which is commonly associated with simple and exponential moving averages. By reducing lag, traders can make more informed decisions based on up-to-date information.
Another advantage of Gaussian Weights is their mathematical foundation, which is rooted in the Gaussian function. This function describes the normal distribution in probability theory and statistics. The smooth and symmetric bell-shaped curve of Gaussian Weights enables a more refined approach to handling data points, resulting in a more responsive and accurate moving average.
While exponential moving averages (EMAs) also assign more weight to recent data points, they can still exhibit some lag. Gaussian Weights, on the other hand, offer a smoother and more adaptive solution to different market conditions. By adjusting the smoothing period, traders can tailor the Gaussian Weights to their specific needs, making them a versatile tool for various trading strategies.
In summary, Gaussian Weights provide a valuable alternative to traditional moving averages due to their ability to reduce lag, their strong mathematical foundation, and their adaptability to different market conditions. These benefits make Gaussian Weights a worthwhile consideration for traders looking to enhance their trading strategies.
Calculations
The ZLMA with GWMA consists of two main calculations:
Gaussian Weight Calculation: The Gaussian weight for a given 'k' and 'smooth_per' is calculated using the standard deviation (sigma) and the exponent part of the Gaussian function.
Zero-Lag GWMA Calculation: The zero-lag GWMA is calculated using a source buffer, a Gaussian weighted moving average (gwma1), and an output array. The source buffer stores the input data, the gwma1 array stores the first Gaussian weighted moving average, and the output array stores the final zero-lag moving average.
Application in Trading
The ZLMA with GWMA indicator can be used to identify trends and potential entry/exit points in trading:
Trend Identification: When the ZLMA is above the price, it indicates a bearish trend, and when it is below the price, it indicates a bullish trend.
Entry/Exit Points: Traders can use crossovers between the ZLMA and price to identify potential entry and exit points. A long position could be taken when the price crosses above the ZLMA, and a short position could be taken when the price crosses below the ZLMA.

+ Awesome OscillatorHi again. I have another indicator that I think is pretty neat.
I had the idea of creating an Awesome Oscillator for my Ultimate MA, just to see what kind of signals it might produce. If you're not familiar with my UMA you should go take a look at it, but essentially it is just an average of eight different length MAs, and if you're not familiar with the Awesome Oscillator, it is simply a comparison of the gap between two different moving averages (traditionally a 5 and 34 SMA) plotted as a histogram below the price chart. The two UMAs I was comparing in this version of the AO were the Hull and Simple. It looked okay, but I thought due to the nature of the movements of these MAs, that it was necessary to add something to this indicator in order to validate its creation and make it truly useful
I came to the idea of simply comparing the closing price of the asset on the chart to both the Awesome Oscillator moving averages. What this effectively does is gives you a representation of the moving averages on the chart (assuming you are using those same MAs) as an oscillator below the chart, enabling you to remove the moving averages from your price chart (obviously if you so choose). For me, I like this because fewer things on the chart makes it easier for me to see the price action and structure of the market clearly, or add something like a tWAP or two.
So, like, "how exactly would I use this indicator?"" you're probably asking.
First off: the Awesome Oscillator. By default it is a faintly shaded area, and is the least obvious part of the indicator.
Second: the plotted line. This is what I call the baseline (if you're familiar with NNFX, then you know what this is). It's basically your bias moving average (this means it defines, based on its lookback or length, whether momentum is bullish, bearish or ranging). In the case of the oscillator though, the ZERO line represents the baseline, and the oscillating line represents price in relation to it. If the line is above the zero line then price is above the moving average, and vice versa if it's below. The farther from the center line the baseline price is the greater the volatility,
Third: the histogram. This is the faster moving average, and same rules apply to it as your baseline. You can think of your fast moving average as a trade entry trigger, or an exit. It shows more immediate momentum shifts.
What's interesting about the relationships of all three of these things is that you don't actually NEED all three displayed. Because the Awesome Oscillator is a relation of your two moving averages, and the baseline and histogram are representational of the price relative to those two moving averages, you will notice that when the histogram (fast MA) flips up or down is the same exact time that the baseline price dips into the AO. The AO is effectively a moving average on that. So you can run this with just the AO and Baseline, or just the Baseline and fast MA histogram. To get started, I might recommend keeping your moving averages that you use on the chart just so you can see how this indicator works.
Both the fast MA and Baseline will show nice divergences (divergence indicator is added if you want to use it). And I've added Donchian Channels as upper and lower bounds that act neatly as support or resistance (especially effective if you're using my UMA with Bollinger Bands, or Magic Carpet Bands).
I've also done the usual colored candles thing, which gives you another great reason to get the moving averages off your chart. There are of course alerts for conditions that one might need to be alerted to as well.
Below are some images of different ways you might set these up using the default moving average/baseline settings. In all of these I've left the moving averages on the price chart (with the addition of a 233 SMA) so you can see the relationship between the indicators.
Right here is the indicator set up with just the awesome oscillator and baseline price. Gives a cleaner overall look. You can see that every time the baseline crosses the awesome oscillator is when price crosses the 8 SMA. Candle colors are based on if candle closes above baseline or below.
This is the indicator set up without the awesome oscillator. Here you can see candle closes over the 8 SMA (fast moving average) are shown by the histogram. Candle coloring is still the same as the above image.
This image looks identical to the first, except that the candle coloring is different. This time it is based on the 8 SMA (same as the baseline entering the awesome oscillator).
And the final example image. This one depicts the awesome oscillator and the fast moving average histogram. Candle coloring is based on the awesome oscillator. This can be a great way to visualize momentum because the awesome oscillator is depicting the crossing of the moving averages. A lot of people poo-poo moving average crosses, but I'd say they're wrong. Well, they're right and wrong. Depends on the MAs you're using. The power in moving average crosses is in their ability to show bullish or bearish momentum (or ranging behavior if they continually cross over each other). If you're using slow moving averages, then crosses are often very late (hence so many people who don't know saying, "but moving average crosses are too laggy". Here you might try changing these and having the baseline be faster than the UMA, and actually plot on chart the UMA (or some other moving average). These are just some thoughts.
Anyway, I hope this indicator proves useful to you all. I think for anyone looking to look at price action a bit more, but is used to using moving averages, this could be a really useful indicator. Most oscillating indicators (if not all) are built around moving averages, but they're never explained in such a way as I'm explaining how this one works (I don't think). I think knowing this could help many traders come to a deeper understanding of what the indicator they're using is actually doing.

Adaptive MA-Bollinger HistogramVisualize two of your favorite moving averages in a fun new way.
This script calculates the distance (or difference) between the price and two moving averages of your choosing and then creates two histograms.
The two histograms are plotted inversely, so if the price is over both moving averages, one will be positive above the centerline while the other still positive will be below the centerline.
(In a future update you will have the option to have them both positive at the same time)
Next, what it does is apply Bollinger Bands (optional) to each of the histograms.
This creates a very interesting effect that can highlight areas of interest you may miss with other indicators.
You have plenty of options for coloring, the type of moving average, Bollinger Band length, and toggling features on and off.
Give it a few minutes of your time to study, and see what information you can learn from watching this indicator by comparing it with the chart.

Adaptive MA-Bollinger Histogram Indicator User Guide
Welcome to the user guide for the **Adaptive MA-Bollinger Histogram** indicator. This custom indicator is designed to help traders analyze trends and potential reversals in a financial instrument's price movements. The indicator combines two Moving Averages (MA) and Bollinger Bands to provide valuable insights into market conditions.
### Indicator Overview
The Adaptive MA-Bollinger Histogram indicator comprises the following components:
1. **Moving Averages (MA1 and MA2):** The indicator uses two moving averages, namely MA1 and MA2, to track different time periods. MA1 has a user-defined length (default: 50) and MA2 has a longer user-defined length (default: 100). These moving averages can be calculated using different methods such as Simple Moving Average (SMA), Exponential Moving Average (EMA), Weighted Moving Average (WMA), Volume Weighted Moving Average (VWMA), or Smoothed Moving Average (RMA).
2. **Histograms:** The indicator displays histograms based on the differences between the price source and the respective moving averages. Positive values of the histogram for MA1 are plotted in one color (default: green), while negative values are plotted in another color (default: red). Similarly, positive values of the histogram for MA2 are plotted in one color (default: blue), while negative values are plotted in another color (default: yellow). It's important to note that the histogram for MA1 is plotted positively, while the histogram for MA2 is plotted inversely.
3. **Bollinger Bands:** The indicator also features Bollinger Bands calculated based on the differences between the price source and the respective moving averages (dist1 and dist2). Bollinger Bands consist of three lines: the middle band, upper band, and lower band. These bands help visualize the potential volatility and overbought/oversold levels of the instrument's price.
### Understanding the Indicator
- **Histograms:** The histograms highlight the divergence between the price and the two moving averages. When the histogram for MA1 is positive, it indicates that the price is above the MA1. Conversely, when the histogram for MA1 is negative, it suggests that the price is below the MA1. Similarly, the histogram for MA2 is plotted inversely.
- **Bollinger Bands:** The Bollinger Bands consist of three lines. The middle band represents the moving average (MA1 or MA2), while the upper and lower bands are calculated based on the standard deviation of the differences between the price source and the moving average. The bands expand during periods of higher volatility and contract during periods of lower volatility.
### Possible Trading Ideas
1. **Trend Confirmation:** When the histograms for both MA1 and MA2 are consistently positive, it may indicate a strong bullish trend. Conversely, when both histograms are consistently negative, it may suggest a strong bearish trend.
2. **Divergence:** Divergence between price and the histograms could signal potential reversals. For example, if the price is making new highs while the histogram is declining, it might indicate a bearish divergence and a possible upcoming trend reversal.
3. **Bollinger Bands Squeeze:** A narrowing of the Bollinger Bands indicates lower volatility and often precedes a significant price movement. Traders might consider a potential breakout trade when the bands start to expand again.
4. **Overbought/Oversold Levels:** Prices touching or exceeding the upper Bollinger Band could suggest overbought conditions, while prices touching or falling below the lower Bollinger Band could indicate oversold conditions. Traders might look for reversals or corrections in such scenarios.
### Customization
- You can adjust the parameters such as MA lengths, Bollinger Bands length, width, and colors to suit your preferences and trading strategy.
### Conclusion
The **Adaptive MA-Bollinger Histogram** indicator provides a comprehensive view of price trends, divergences, and potential reversal points. Traders can use the information from this indicator to make informed decisions in their trading strategies. However, like any technical tool, it's recommended to combine this indicator with other forms of analysis and risk management techniques for optimal results.
R-squared Adaptive T3 [Loxx]R-squared Adaptive T3 is an R-squared adaptive version of Tilson's T3 moving average. This adaptivity was originally proposed by mladen on various forex forums. This is considered experimental but shows how to use r-squared adapting methods to moving averages. In theory, the T3 is a six-pole non-linear Kalman filter.

Introduction
"Digital filtering includes the process of smoothing, predicting, differentiating, integrating, separation of signals, and removal of noise from a signal. Thus many people who do such things are actually using digital filters without realizing that they are; being unacquainted with the theory, they neither understand what they have done nor the possibilities of what they might have done."
This quote from R. W. Hamming applies to the vast majority of indicators in technical analysis. Moving averages, be they simple, weighted, or exponential, are lowpass filters; low frequency components in the signal pass through with little attenuation, while high frequencies are severely reduced.
"Oscillator" type indicators (such as MACD, Momentum, Relative Strength Index) are another type of digital filter called a differentiator.
Tushar Chande has observed that many popular oscillators are highly correlated, which is sensible because they are trying to measure the rate of change of the underlying time series, i.e., are trying to be the first and second derivatives we all learned about in Calculus.
We use moving averages (lowpass filters) in technical analysis to remove the random noise from a time series, to discern the underlying trend or to determine prices at which we will take action. A perfect moving average would have two attributes:
It would be smooth, not sensitive to random noise in the underlying time series. Another way of saying this is that its derivative would not spuriously alternate between positive and negative values.
It would not lag behind the time series it is computed from. Lag, of course, produces late buy or sell signals that kill profits.
The only way one can compute a perfect moving average is to have knowledge of the future, and if we had that, we would buy one lottery ticket a week rather than trade!
Having said this, we can still improve on the conventional simple, weighted, or exponential moving averages. Here's how:
Two Interesting Moving Averages
We will examine two benchmark moving averages based on Linear Regression analysis.
In both cases, a Linear Regression line of length n is fitted to price data.
I call the first moving average ILRS, which stands for Integral of Linear Regression Slope. One simply integrates the slope of a linear regression line as it is successively fitted in a moving window of length n across the data, with the constant of integration being a simple moving average of the first n points. Put another way, the derivative of ILRS is the linear regression slope. Note that ILRS is not the same as a SMA (simple moving average) of length n, which is actually the midpoint of the linear regression line as it moves across the data.
We can measure the lag of moving averages with respect to a linear trend by computing how they behave when the input is a line with unit slope. Both SMA(n) and ILRS(n) have lag of n/2, but ILRS is much smoother than SMA.
Our second benchmark moving average is well known, called EPMA or End Point Moving Average. It is the endpoint of the linear regression line of length n as it is fitted across the data. EPMA hugs the data more closely than a simple or exponential moving average of the same length. The price we pay for this is that it is much noisier (less smooth) than ILRS, and it also has the annoying property that it overshoots the data when linear trends are present.
However, EPMA has a lag of 0 with respect to linear input! This makes sense because a linear regression line will fit linear input perfectly, and the endpoint of the LR line will be on the input line.
These two moving averages frame the tradeoffs that we are facing. On one extreme we have ILRS, which is very smooth and has considerable phase lag. EPMA has 0 phase lag, but is too noisy and overshoots. We would like to construct a better moving average which is as smooth as ILRS, but runs closer to where EPMA lies, without the overshoot.
A easy way to attempt this is to split the difference, i.e. use (ILRS(n)+EPMA(n))/2. This will give us a moving average (call it IE/2) which runs in between the two, has phase lag of n/4 but still inherits considerable noise from EPMA. IE/2 is inspirational, however. Can we build something that is comparable, but smoother? Figure 1 shows ILRS, EPMA, and IE/2.
Filter Techniques
Any thoughtful student of filter theory (or resolute experimenter) will have noticed that you can improve the smoothness of a filter by running it through itself multiple times, at the cost of increasing phase lag.
There is a complementary technique (called twicing by J.W. Tukey) which can be used to improve phase lag. If L stands for the operation of running data through a low pass filter, then twicing can be described by:
L' = L(time series) + L(time series - L(time series))
That is, we add a moving average of the difference between the input and the moving average to the moving average. This is algebraically equivalent to:
2L-L(L)
This is the Double Exponential Moving Average or DEMA, popularized by Patrick Mulloy in TASAC (January/February 1994).
In our taxonomy, DEMA has some phase lag (although it exponentially approaches 0) and is somewhat noisy, comparable to IE/2 indicator.
We will use these two techniques to construct our better moving average, after we explore the first one a little more closely.
Fixing Overshoot
An n-day EMA has smoothing constant alpha=2/(n+1) and a lag of (n-1)/2.
Thus EMA(3) has lag 1, and EMA(11) has lag 5. Figure 2 shows that, if I am willing to incur 5 days of lag, I get a smoother moving average if I run EMA(3) through itself 5 times than if I just take EMA(11) once.
This suggests that if EPMA and DEMA have 0 or low lag, why not run fast versions (eg DEMA(3)) through themselves many times to achieve a smooth result? The problem is that multiple runs though these filters increase their tendency to overshoot the data, giving an unusable result. This is because the amplitude response of DEMA and EPMA is greater than 1 at certain frequencies, giving a gain of much greater than 1 at these frequencies when run though themselves multiple times. Figure 3 shows DEMA(7) and EPMA(7) run through themselves 3 times. DEMA^3 has serious overshoot, and EPMA^3 is terrible.
The solution to the overshoot problem is to recall what we are doing with twicing:
DEMA(n) = EMA(n) + EMA(time series - EMA(n))
The second term is adding, in effect, a smooth version of the derivative to the EMA to achieve DEMA. The derivative term determines how hot the moving average's response to linear trends will be. We need to simply turn down the volume to achieve our basic building block:
EMA(n) + EMA(time series - EMA(n))*.7;
This is algebraically the same as:
EMA(n)*1.7-EMA(EMA(n))*.7;
I have chosen .7 as my volume factor, but the general formula (which I call "Generalized Dema") is:
GD(n,v) = EMA(n)*(1+v)-EMA(EMA(n))*v,
Where v ranges between 0 and 1. When v=0, GD is just an EMA, and when v=1, GD is DEMA. In between, GD is a cooler DEMA. By using a value for v less than 1 (I like .7), we cure the multiple DEMA overshoot problem, at the cost of accepting some additional phase delay. Now we can run GD through itself multiple times to define a new, smoother moving average T3 that does not overshoot the data:
T3(n) = GD(GD(GD(n)))
In filter theory parlance, T3 is a six-pole non-linear Kalman filter. Kalman filters are ones which use the error (in this case (time series - EMA(n)) to correct themselves. In Technical Analysis, these are called Adaptive Moving Averages; they track the time series more aggressively when it is making large moves.

Moving Averages
A moving average simplifies price data by smoothing it out by averaging closing prices and creating one flowing line which makes seeing the trend easier.
Moving averages can work well in strong trending conditions, but poorly in choppy or ranging conditions.
Adjusting the time frame can remedy this problem temporarily, although at some point, these issues are likely to occur regardless of the time frame chosen for the moving average(s).
While Exponential moving averages react quicker to price changes than simple moving averages. In some cases, this may be good, and in others, it may cause false signals.
Moving averages with a shorter look back period (20 days, for example) will also respond quicker to price changes than an average with a longer look back period (200 days).
Trading Strategies — Moving Average Crossovers
Moving average crossovers are a popular strategy for both entries and exits. MAs can also highlight areas of potential support or resistance.
The first type is a price crossover, which is when the price crosses above or below a moving average to signal a potential change in trend.
Another strategy is to apply two moving averages to a chart: one longer and one shorter.
When the shorter-term MA crosses above the longer-term MA, it's a buy signal, as it indicates that the trend is shifting up. This is known as a "golden cross."
Meanwhile, when the shorter-term MA crosses below the longer-term MA, it's a sell signal, as it indicates that the trend is shifting down. This is known as a "dead/death cross."
MA and MA Cross Strategy Disadvantages
Moving averages are calculated based on historical data, and while this may appear predictive nothing about the calculation is predictive in nature.
Moving averages are always based on historical data and simply show the average price over a certain time period.
Therefore, results using moving averages can be quite random.
At times, the market seems to respect MA support/resistance and trade signals, and at other times, it shows these indicators no respect.
One major problem is that, if the price action becomes choppy, the price may swing back and forth, generating multiple trend reversal or trade signals.
When this occurs, it's best to step aside or utilize another indicator to help clarify the trend.
The same thing can occur with MA crossovers when the MAs get "tangled up" for a period of time during periods of consolidation, triggering multiple losing trades.
Ensure you use a robust risk management system to avoid getting "Chopped Up" or "Whip Sawed" during these periods.
Trend Thrust Indicator - RafkaThis indicator defines the impact of volume on the volume-weighted moving average, emphasizing trends with greater volume.
What determines a security’s value? Price is the agreement to exchange despite the possible disagreement in value. Price is the conviction, emotion, and volition of investors. It is not a constant but is influenced by information, opinions, and emotions over time. Volume represents this degree of conviction and is the embodiment of information and opinions flowing through investor channels. It is the asymmetry between the volume being forced through supply (offers) and demand (bids) that facilitates price change. Quantifying the extent of asymmetry between price trends and the corresponding volume flows is a primary objective of volume analysis. Volume analysis research reveals that volume often leads price but may also be used to confirm the present price trend.
Trend thrust indicator
The trend thrust indicator (TTI), an enhanced version of the volume-weighted moving average convergence/divergence (VW-Macd) indicator, was introduced in Buff Pelz Dormeier's book 'Investing With Volume Analysis'. The TTI uses a volume multiplier in unique ways to exaggerate the impact of volume on volume-weighted moving averages. Like the VW-Macd, the TTI uses volume-weighted moving averages as opposed to exponential moving averages. Volume-weighted averages weigh closing prices proportionally to the volume traded during each time period, so the TTI gives greater emphasis to those price trends with greater volume and less emphasis to time periods with lighter volume. In the February 2001 issue of Stocks & Commodities, I showed that volume-weighted moving averages (Buff averages, or Vwmas) improve responsiveness while increasing reliability of simple moving averages.
Like the Macd and VW-Macd, the TTI calculates a spread by subtracting the short (fast) average from the long (slow) average. This spread combined with a volume multiplier creates the Buff spread
Super Arma Institucional PRO v6.3Super Arma Institucional PRO v6.3
Description
Super Arma Institucional PRO v6.3 is a multifunctional indicator designed for traders looking for a clear and objective analysis of the market, focusing on trends, key price levels and high liquidity zones. It combines three essential elements: moving averages (EMA 20, SMA 50, EMA 200), dynamic support and resistance, and volume-based liquidity zones. This integration offers an institutional view of the market, ideal for identifying strategic entry and exit points.
How it Works
Moving Averages:
EMA 20 (orange): Sensitive to short-term movements, ideal for capturing fast trends.
SMA 50 (blue): Represents the medium-term trend, smoothing out fluctuations.
EMA 200 (red): Indicates the long-term trend, used as a reference for the general market bias.
Support and Resistance: Calculated based on the highest and lowest prices over a defined period (default: 20 bars). These dynamic levels help identify zones where the price may encounter barriers or supports.
Liquidity Zones: Purple rectangles are drawn in areas of significantly above-average volume, indicating regions where large market participants (institutional) may be active. These zones are useful for anticipating price movements or order absorption.
Purpose
The indicator was developed to provide a clean and institutional view of the market, combining classic tools (moving averages and support/resistance) with modern liquidity analysis. It is ideal for traders operating swing trading or position trading strategies, allowing to identify:
Short, medium and long-term trends.
Key support and resistance levels to plan entries and exits.
High liquidity zones where institutional orders can influence the price.
Settings
Show EMA 20 (true): Enables/disables the 20-period EMA.
Show SMA 50 (true): Enables/disables the 50-period SMA.
Show EMA 200 (true): Enables/disables the 200-period EMA.
Support/Resistance Period (20): Sets the period for calculating support and resistance levels.
Liquidity Sensitivity (20): Period for calculating the average volume.
Minimum Liquidity Factor (1.5): Multiplier of the average volume to identify high liquidity zones.
How to Use
Moving Averages:
Crossovers between the EMA 20 and SMA 50 may indicate short/medium-term trend changes.
The EMA 200 serves as a reference for the long-term bias (above = bullish, below = bearish).
Support and Resistance: Use the red (resistance) and green (support) lines to identify reversal or consolidation zones.
Liquidity Zones: The purple rectangles highlight areas of high volume, where the price may react (reversal or breakout). Consider these zones to place orders or manage risks.
Adjust the parameters according to the asset and timeframe to optimize the analysis.
Notes
The chart should be configured only with this indicator to ensure clarity.
Use on timeframes such as 1 hour, 4 hours or daily for better visualization of liquidity zones and support/resistance levels.
Avoid adding other indicators to the chart to keep the script output easily identifiable.
The indicator is designed to be clean, without explicit buy/sell signals, following an institutional approach.
This indicator is perfect for traders who want a visually clear and powerful tool to trade based on trends, key levels and institutional behavior.
Advanced MVRV Trend AnalyzerThe "Advanced MVRV Trend Analyzer" is a sophisticated trading tool designed for the TradingView platform that enhances traditional Market Value to Realized Value (MVRV) analysis. It provides a multi-timeframe perspective of market valuation dynamics by comparing the current market price to the realized price across short-term, mid-term, and long-term cohorts. This indicator is particularly useful for cryptocurrency traders and investors who seek deeper insights into potential overvaluation or undervaluation conditions in the market.
Key Features
Multiple Timeframes:
Analyzes market conditions across three distinct timeframes: short-term (14 days), mid-term (50 days), and long-term (200 days).
Moving Averages: Includes moving averages for each MVRV ratio to smooth out short-term fluctuations and highlight longer-term trends.
Dynamic Thresholds: Provides dynamic color-coded backgrounds that highlight overvalued and undervalued market conditions based on predefined thresholds.
How to Use
Adding the Indicator:
Open your TradingView chart.
Click on "Indicators" at the top of your screen.
Search for "Advanced MVRV Trend Analyzer" and add it to your chart.
Interpreting the Indicator:
MVRV Lines: Each of the three MVRV lines (short-term, mid-term, long-term) reflects how much higher or lower the current market price is compared to the average price at which coins were last moved. A value above 1 indicates that the current price is higher than the realized price, suggesting overvaluation. Conversely, a value below 1 suggests undervaluation.
Moving Averages: The moving averages of the MVRV ratios help identify the underlying trend. If the MVRV line deviates significantly from its moving average, it might indicate a potential reversal or continuation of the current trend.
Color-coded Backgrounds:
Red background indicates an overvalued condition where the MVRV ratio exceeds 1.5, suggesting caution as the market may be overheated.
Green background indicates an undervalued condition where the MVRV ratio is below 0.5, potentially signaling a buying opportunity.
Trading Strategies:
Overvalued Zones: Consider taking profits or setting stop-loss orders when the indicator shows a prolonged red background, especially if supported by other bearish signals.
Undervalued Zones: Look for buying opportunities when the indicator shows a prolonged green background, especially if other bullish signals are present.
Combining with Other Indicators:
Enhance your analysis by combining the "Advanced MVRV Trend Analyzer" with other technical indicators such as RSI, MACD, or volume-based tools to confirm trends and signals.
Conclusion
The "Advanced MVRV Trend Analyzer" offers a nuanced view of market dynamics, providing traders with valuable insights into when a market may be approaching extremes. By utilizing this indicator, traders can better time their entries and exits, manage risk, and align their strategies with underlying market trends.
Multi-Sector Trend AnalysisThis script, titled "Multi-Sector Trend Analysis: Track Sector Momentum and Trends," is designed to assist traders and investors in monitoring multiple sectors of the stock market simultaneously. It leverages technical analysis by incorporating trend detection and momentum indicators like moving averages and the Relative Strength Index (RSI) to offer insights into the price action of various market sectors.
Core Features:
1. Sector-Based Analysis: The script covers 20 major sectors from the NSE (National Stock Exchange) such as Auto, Banking, Energy, FMCG, IT, Pharma, and others. Users can customize which sectors they wish to analyze using the available input fields.
Technical Indicators: The script uses two core technical indicators to detect trends and momentum:
2. Moving Averages: The script calculates both fast and slow exponential moving averages (EMAs). These are critical for identifying short- and long-term price trends and crossovers, helping detect shifts in momentum.
3. Relative Strength Index (RSI): A well-known momentum indicator that shows whether a stock is overbought or oversold. This script uses a 14-period RSI to gauge the strength of each sector.
4. Trend Detection: The script identifies whether the current market trend is "Up" or "Down" based on the relationship between the fast and slow EMAs (i.e., whether the fast EMA is above or below the slow EMA). It highlights this trend visually in a table format, allowing quick and easy trend recognition.
5. Gain/Loss Tracking: This feature calculates the percentage gain or loss since the last EMA crossover (a key point in trend change), giving users a sense of how much the price has moved since the trend shifted.
6. Customizable Table for Display: The script displays the analyzed data in a table format, where users can view each sector's:
Symbol
Trend (Up or Down)
RSI Value
Gain/Loss Since the Last EMA Crossover
This table is customizable in terms of size and color theme (dark or light), providing flexibility in presentation for different charting styles.
How It Works:
Sector Selection: Users can input up to 20 different sector symbols for analysis.
Moving Averages: Users can define the period lengths for both the fast and slow EMAs to suit their trading strategies.
Table Options: Choose between different table sizes and opt for a dark theme to enhance the visual appearance on charts.
How to Use:
Select the symbols (sectors) that you want to track. The script includes pre-configured symbols for major sectors on the NSE, but you can modify these to suit your needs.
Adjust the fast and slow EMA lengths to your preference. A common setting would be 3 for the fast EMA and 4 for the slow EMA, but more conservative traders might opt for higher values.
Customize the table size and theme based on your preference, whether you want a compact table or a larger one for easier readability.
Why Use This Script:
This script is ideal for traders looking to:
Monitor multiple market sectors simultaneously.
Identify key trends across sectors quickly.
Understand momentum and detect potential reversals through RSI and EMA crossovers.
Stay informed on sector performance using a clear visual table that tracks gains or losses.
By using this script, traders can gain better insights into sector-based trading strategies, improve their sector rotation tactics, and stay informed about the broader market environment. It provides a powerful yet easy-to-use tool for both beginner and advanced traders.

Supertrend
Definition
Supertrend is a trend-following indicator based on Average True Range (ATR). The calculation of its single line combines trend detection and volatility. It can be used to detect changes in trend direction and to position stops.
The basics
The Supertrend is a trend-following indicator. It is overlaid on the main chart and their plots indicate the current trend. A Supertrend can be used with varying periods (daily, weekly, intraday etc.) and on varying instruments.
The Supertrend has several inputs that you can adjust to match your trading strategy. Adjusting these settings allows you to make the indicator more or less sensitive to price changes.
For the Supertrend inputs, you can adjust atrLength and multiplier:
the atrLength setting is the lookback length for the ATR calculation;
multiplier is what the ATR is multiplied by to offset the bands from price.
When the price falls below the indicator curve, it turns red and indicates a downtrend. Conversely, when the price rises above the curve, the indicator turns green and indicates an uptrend. After each close above or below Supertrend, a new trend appears.
Summary
The Supertrend helps you make the right trading decisions. However, there are times when it generates false signals. Therefore, it is best to use the right combination of several indicators. Like any other indicator, Supertrend works best when used with other indicators such as MACD, Parabolic SAR, or RSI.
Exponential Moving Average
Definition
The Exponential Moving Average (EMA) is a specific type of moving average that points towards the importance of the most recent data and information from the market. The Exponential Moving Average is just like it’s name says - it’s exponential, weighting the most recent prices more than the less recent prices. The EMA can be compared and contrasted with the simple moving average.
Similar to other moving averages, the EMA is a technical indicator that produces buy and sell signals based on data that shows evidence of divergence and crossovers from general and historical averages. Additionally, the EMA tries to amplify the importance that the most recent data points play in a calculation.
It is common to use more than one EMA length at once, to provide more in-depth and focused data. For example, by choosing 10-day and 200-day moving averages, a trader is able to determine more from the results in a long-term trade, than a trader who is only analyzing one EMA length.
It’s best to use the EMA when for trending markets, as it shows uptrends and downtrends when a market is strong and weak, respectively. An experienced trader will know to look both at the line the EMA projects, as well as the rate of change that comes from each bar as it moves to the next data point. Analyzing these points and data streams correctly will help the trader determine when they should buy, sell, or switch investments from bearish to bullish or vice versa.
Short-term averages, on the other hand, is a different story when analyzing Exponential Moving Average data. It is most common for traders to quote and utilize 12- and 26-day EMAs in the short-term. This is because they are used to create specific indicators. Look into Moving Average Convergence Divergence (MACD) for more information. Similarly, the 50- and 200-day moving averages are most common for analyzing long-term trends.
Moving averages can be very useful for traders using technical analysis for profit. It is important to identify and realize, however, their shortcomings, as all moving averages tend to suffer from recurring lag. It is difficult to modify the moving average to work in your favor at times, often having the preferred time to enter or exit the market pass before the moving average even shows changes in the trend or price movement for that matter.
All of this is true, however, the EMA strives to make this easier for traders. The EMA is unique because it places more emphasis on the most recent data. Therefore, price movement and trend reversals or changes are closely monitored, allowing for the EMA to react quicker than other moving averages.
Limitations
Although using the Exponential Moving Average has a lot of advantages when analyzing market trends, it is also uncertain whether or not the use of most recent data points truly affects technical and market analysis. In addition, the EMA relies on historical data as its basis for operating and because news, events, and other information can change rapidly the indicator can misinterpret this information by weighting the current prices higher than when the event actually occurred.
Summary
The Exponential Moving Average (EMA) is a moving average and technical indicator that reflects and projects the most recent data and information from the market to a trader and relies on a base of historical data. It is one of many different types of moving averages and has an easily calculable formula.
The added features to the indicator are made for training, it is advisable to use it with caution in tradings.
SMA/EMA/RSImagic 36.963 by IgorPlahutaTwo Elements in this script:
Alerts: These are notifications that draw your attention to specific market conditions. There are two types:
RSI Higher Lows or Lower Highs: This alert triggers when the Relative Strength Index (RSI) forms higher lows or lower highs.
RSI Exiting 30 (Up) or RSI Exiting 70 (Down): These alerts activate when the RSI crosses the 30 threshold upwards or the 70 threshold downwards.
ALL BUY/SELL: to catch both of them with one setting
To Set Up an Alert: To configure an alert, select the one relevant to your trading strategy, choose the "Greater than" option, and input a value of "0" (this essentially activates the alert). Adjust other settings as per your requirements.
Please note that these alerts should be used in conjunction with a system you trust for confirmation.
Moving Averages: This involves monitoring several moving averages:
SMA12, SMA20, EMA12, EMA20: These moving averages are highlighted with background colors to help you quickly identify changes or crossovers. They are superimposed on each other for easy comparison.
SMA 50, SMA200: These moving averages are also highlighted with background colors to spot crossovers, and their lines change color depending on their direction (falling in red or rising in green).
Enjoy using these tools in your trading endeavors!
Universal MA Trend(Republishing in Open source)
Hello traders,
Many existing moving average indicators have not been satisfactory in terms of the number, types, and length adjustments of moving averages.
Feeling the inconvenience, I created a moving average indicator and collected numerous famous moving averages.
Fortunately, there was a PineCoder "andre_007" who had already compiled various Moving Averages,
so I was able to find a new Moving Average and combine it with the indicator. Here is the link below
Among these, for the JMA, which has not been publicly disclosed, I utilized the source code from TradingView Wizard everget:
For VIDYA, I also used everget's source code:
And also MAMA / FAMA Coded from Pinescript Wizard everget :
Ehlers MESA Adaptive Moving Averages (MAMA & FAMA)
For Frama, I used the code from nemozny's source code :
Thanks to all these Pinecoders.
---
By using these excellent moving averages together, I found that the simultaneous Up/Down changes of various moving averages with different characteristics tend to be maintained for quite a long time.
Therefore, this indicator not only collects various moving averages but also displays areas with simultaneous trends as background.
An example can be found here:
Furthermore, to prevent the up/down changes of the moving averages due to factors like whipsaws, a smoothing filter has been introduced.
And Also, Alert is able when trend changes.

안녕하세요 트레이더여러분.
기존의 이동평균선 지표들은, 이동평균선의 갯수, 종류, 길이조절 등에서 만족스럽지 못한 점들이 많았습니다.
불편함을 느끼고 직접 이동평균선 지표를 만들면서, 유명한 수 많은 이동평균선들을 모았습니다.
그리고 이미 이러한 수많은 이동평균선을 손수 모아서 정리해주신 고마우신 파인코더(andere_007 님)가 있어서, 그 분의 코드를 많이 이용했습니다. 링크는 아래와 같습니다.

이러한 좋은 이동평균선을 모아서 사용해보니, 다양한 특성을 갖고 있는 이동평균선의 동시적인 Up/Down 변화는 꽤 오랫동안 유지된다는 점을 발견했습니다.
그래서 이 지표는, 위의 여러가지 이동평균선을 모아놓은 것 뿐만 아니라,
그것에서 동시적인 트랜드가 나오는 곳을 배경화면으로 표시해두었습니다.
예시는 다음과 같습니다.
나아가 휩쏘 등으로 이동평균선의 up/down이 바뀌는 것을 막고자, Smoothing 필터도 도입했습니다.
또한 트랜드가 바뀔 때 얼러트가 울리도록, 얼러트 기능을 설정해놓을 수 있게 해놓았으며, 현재 이동평균선과 상태를 보기 쉽도록 테이블을 만들어놓았습니다.
Overlay Indicators (EMAs, SMAs, Ichimoku & Bollinger Bands)This is a combination of popular overlay indicators that are used for dynamic support and resistance, trade targets and trend strength.
Included are:
-> 6 Exponential Moving Averages
-> 6 Simple Moving Averages
-> Ichimoku Cloud
-> Bollinger Bands
-> There is also a weekend background marker ideal for cryptocurrency trading
Using all these indicators in conjunction with each other provide great confluence and confidence in trades and price targets.
An explanation of each indicator is listed below.
What Is an Exponential Moving Average (EMA)?
"An exponential moving average (EMA) is a type of moving average (MA) that places a greater weight and significance on the most recent data points. The exponential moving average is also referred to as the exponentially weighted moving average. An exponentially weighted moving average reacts more significantly to recent price changes than a simple moving average (SMA), which applies an equal weight to all observations in the period.
What Does the Exponential Moving Average Tell You?
The 12- and 26-day exponential moving averages (EMAs) are often the most quoted and analyzed short-term averages. The 12- and 26-day are used to create indicators like the moving average convergence divergence (MACD) and the percentage price oscillator (PPO). In general, the 50- and 200-day EMAs are used as indicators for long-term trends. When a stock price crosses its 200-day moving average, it is a technical signal that a reversal has occurred.
Traders who employ technical analysis find moving averages very useful and insightful when applied correctly. However, they also realize that these signals can create havoc when used improperly or misinterpreted. All the moving averages commonly used in technical analysis are, by their very nature, lagging indicators."
Source: www.investopedia.com
Popular EMA lookback periods include fibonacci numbers and round numbers such as the 100 or 200. The default values of the EMAs in this indicator are the most widely used, specifically for cryptocurrency but they also work very well with traditional.
EMAs are normally used in conjunction with Simple Moving Averages.
" What Is Simple Moving Average (SMA)?
A simple moving average (SMA) calculates the average of a selected range of prices, usually closing prices, by the number of periods in that range.
Simple Moving Average vs. Exponential Moving Average
The major difference between an exponential moving average (EMA) and a simple moving average is the sensitivity each one shows to changes in the data used in its calculation. More specifically, the EMA gives a higher weighting to recent prices, while the SMA assigns an equal weighting to all values."
Source: www.investopedia.com
In this indicator, I've included 6 popular moving averages that are commonly used. Most traders will find specific settings for their own personal trading style.
Along with the EMA and SMA, another indicator that is good for finding confluence between these two is the Ichimoku Cloud.
" What is the Ichimoku Cloud?
The Ichimoku Cloud is a collection of technical indicators that show support and resistance levels, as well as momentum and trend direction. It does this by taking multiple averages and plotting them on the chart. It also uses these figures to compute a "cloud" which attempts to forecast where the price may find support or resistance in the future.
The Ichimoku cloud was developed by Goichi Hosoda, a Japanese journalist, and published in the late 1960s.1 It provides more data points than the standard candlestick chart. While it seems complicated at first glance, those familiar with how to read the charts often find it easy to understand with well-defined trading signals."
More info can be seen here: www.investopedia.com
I have changed the default settings on the Ichimoku to suit cryptocurrency trading (as cryptocurrency is usually fast and thus require slightly longer lookbacks) to 20 60 120 30.
Along with the Ichimoku, I like to use Bollinger Bands to not only find confluence for support and resistance but for price discovery targets and trend strength.
" What Is a Bollinger Band®?
A Bollinger Band® is a technical analysis tool defined by a set of trendlines plotted two standard deviations (positively and negatively) away from a simple moving average (SMA) of a security's price, but which can be adjusted to user preferences.
Bollinger Bands® were developed and copyrighted by famous technical trader John Bollinger, designed to discover opportunities that give investors a higher probability of properly identifying when an asset is oversold or overbought."
This article goes into great detail of the complexities of using the Bollinger band and how to use it.

This indicator combines all these powerful indicators into one so that it is easier to input different settings, turn specific tools on or off and can be easily customised.
