Ehlers Directional Movement Hann Window Indicator [CC]The Directional Movement Hann Window Indicator was created by John Ehlers (Stocks and Commodities Dec 2021 pgs 17-18) and this is his updated version of the classic Directional Movement indicator created by J. Welles Wilder. Ehlers uses the Hann Window Filtering after using an exponential moving average to smooth the classic directional movement indicator. This helps significantly with the lag and lack of smoothing which are both issues with the classic indicator. I have included strong buy and sell signals in addition to the normal ones so strong signals are darker in color and normal signals are lighter in color. Buy when the line turns green and sell when it turns red.
Let me know if there are any other indicators you would like to see me publish!

Support and Resistance-Heiken Ashi-Swing Index System-alertsThis is a breakout system that has pivot swing lines and a trailing stop built in. Many people try to use different ways to find out what a swing point is such as, zig zags, lookbacks, fractals, hand-drawn chart lines, or other subjective indicators. This looks at the heiken ashi price to objectively find the swing pivots. Many would agree that the color changes in the heiken ashi bars are signs of price reversals. This indicator tells where the significant swing points will be based on this concept. A lookback for a specific number of bars is then done to make sure the lowest low or the highest high is the actual swing point by looking at all possible combinations where it could be after finding the color change in the heiken ashi bar. After the swing points are found, the pivot lines can act as support and resistance levels, as trailing stops, as a confirmation of a breakout, or any other use that S/R lines might have. The colored zone filling is included along with the pivot top and bottom lines to show that the price has broken above/below the pivot lines and has remained above/below them. This trailing stop can be used as a final indication of an exit for trend following, breakout system, or any other system that it might benefit from by sometimes reacting before other trailing stop to give off a more reliable exit signal. It works similarly to other trailing stops such as ATR based ones and Supertrend, but instead of being used for an exit or stop, it is meant more for an entry or confirmation signal. A breakout of a price pattern or S/R levels can be confirmed when the colored red/green zone changes color. Other trailing stops or exit strategies can be combined to give off a better exit.
I made this indicator so that instead of using a trailing stop line to show the direction of the breakout or trend, a colored zone is used so that it doesn't get in the way of the upper and lower lines. It can be turned off in the settings if only the support and resistance lines are needed. Other than that, this indicator doesn't need any inputs whatsoever to find out where the swing pivots points might and are found objectively using heiken ashi. I also included several alerts to signal whenever the trend direction color zone changes, when the price breaks support or resistance, or when it breaks the previous support and resistance levels.
Welles Wilder MA [MX]The average of 34 periods I observe as a mobile S/R, but I usually observe it more when it is in strong trend, and the average of 72 and 89 as trend dictators, if the asset is above them = Bullish , below = Bearish , and the 144 average as the last moving S/R, and also as an S/R even stronger than all other MAs and when the asset loses that average, I see it as final confirmation of the other previous averages.
I give more importance to the average of 89 periods than to 72, because I see it as an extension to the average of 72, as if it were a trend range.
for those who prefer to observe the crossing of short and long averages as a way to see the trend, I also left this option, although I do not use

A média de 34 periodos eu observo como um S/R móvel, mas eu costumo observar ela mais quando está em forte tendência, estando bem bearish ou jeffish, e a média de 72 e 89 como ditadoras de tendência, se o ativo está acima delas = Bullish , abaixo = Bearish , e a média de 144 como o último S/R móvel, e também como um S/R ainda mais forte que todas as outras MA's e quando o ativo perde essa média, eu vejo como confirmação final das outras médias anteriores.
Eu dou mais importância a média de 89 períodos do que a de 72, porque eu vejo ela como uma extensão a média de 72, como se fosse um range de tendência.
para quem prefere observar o cruzamento das médias curtas com as longas como forma de ver a tendência, eu deixei também essa opção, embora eu não use
Commodity Selection Index Strategy The Commodity Selection Index ("CSI") is a momentum indicator. It was
developed by Welles Wilder and is presented in his book New Concepts in
Technical Trading Systems. The name of the index reflects its primary purpose.
That is, to help select commodities suitable for short-term trading.
A high CSI rating indicates that the commodity has strong trending and volatility
characteristics. The trending characteristics are brought out by the Directional
Movement factor in the calculation--the volatility characteristic by the Average
True Range factor.
Wilder's approach is to trade commodities with high CSI values (relative to other
commodities). Because these commodities are highly volatile, they have the potential
to make the "most money in the shortest period of time." High CSI values imply
trending characteristics which make it easier to trade the security.
The Commodity Selection Index is designed for short-term traders who can handle
the risks associated with highly volatile markets.
WILDER'S Moving Average by fr3762 KIVANCThe Wilder’s Moving Average indicator (Wilder’s Smoothed Moving Average ) was developed by Welles Wilder and introduced in his 1978 book, “New Concepts in Technical Trading Systems.” Mr. Wilder did not use the standard EMA formula; instead, the following formula is used: EMA = Input * K + EMA * (1-K), where K = 2 / (N+1). Then to find the Wilder’s Moving Average, the following calculation is performed: Input * K + EMA * (1-K), where K =1/N.
Type to use
Moving averages are commonly used to identify trends and reversals as well as identifying support and resistance levels. Moving averages such the WMA and EMA , which are more sensitive to recent prices (experience less lag with price) will turn before an SMA . They are therefore more suitable for dynamic trades, which are reactive to short term price movements. Moving averages such as the SMA move more slowly providing valuable information on the long dominant trend. They can however be prone to giving late signals causing the trader to miss significant parts of the price movement.
Trade Signals
Moving Average Crossovers: Moving average crossovers is a term applied when more than one moving average is used to generate a trade signal where traders will act when the shorter term moving average crosses the longer term moving average. A bullish crossover occurs when the shorter term moving average crosses above the longer term moving average (golden cross). A bearish crossover occurs where the shorter term moving average crosses below the longer term moving average (dead cross).
Price crossovers: A Price crossover is a term applied when a signal is generated where the price crosses a moving average. Bullish signals are given when the price moves above the moving average, bearish signals are given when the price moves below the moving average. Crossover trades are more likely to enjoy success when the moving average slopes are in the direction of the trade.
Support and Resistance: Moving averages can also act as a support level in an uptrend and resistance levels in a downtrend. If the average is widely followed orders in favour of the trend often cluster around the average. As markets are often driven by emotion and many players trade counter to the trend expect overshoots, to this extent the average should be used to identify support and resistance zones rather than exact levels.
