• This indicator aids in identifying potential trend starts, continuations and endings by combining moving averages with trend lines.

• Multi-timeframe plots provide valuable insights by displaying short-term and long-term trends on the same chart, making it suitable for both intraday and swing trading analysis.
  

How to read multi-timeframe charts?
The first timeframe, such as daily, is represented by a red EMA8 line (labeled DE) and a corresponding thin trend line (labeled DT). The second timeframe, such as weekly, uses a green EMA8 line (labeled WE) and a medium trend line (labeled WT). The third timeframe, such as monthly, is depicted with a blue EMA8 line (labeled ME) and a thick trend line (labeled MT).
As the timeframe increases, the true range increases and hence trend curve thickness increases.
Trends for lower timeframes are not plotted on daily or higher charts.


How EMA and Trend Line Work Together?
In the BTC daily chart screenshot below, trend initiation is highlighted with a green circle, trend continuation is marked by arrows, and trend completion is indicated with a red circle. A total of six trends are identified on the chart.
When the EMA crosses above the trend line, it signals the start of a trend, while a cross below the trend line marks its end. The period between the trend start and end represents trend continuation.


How Trend Lines Serve as Support or Resistance?
In the BTC daily chart screenshot below, the weekly green trend line serves as support when the price declines toward it, while the red trend line acts as resistance when the price rises from below.
Green circles on the chart highlight instances where the weekly trend provided support, while red circles indicate points where the weekly trend acted as resistance.


How Multi-Timeframe Trends Assist in Stock Analysis?
In the BTC daily chart screenshot below, the monthly trend is rising, and the weekly trend is also moving upward, indicating a favorable outlook for both long-term (monthly) and medium-term (weekly) trends. However, the daily chart suggests a more cautious approach, signaling a period to sit out


Inputs and customization: 
This combination of ema and trend plots will be plotted for 4 different time frames all at once. Which 4 timeframes can be chosen in the settings.

How Trend Line and EMA Calculated?
The Trend line is calculated using an arithmetic equation based on the last 8 data points, which are themselves a combination of weighted moving averages of varying lengths. A 14-period true range of the price is calculated and plotted as a buffer zone around the trend lines.
Trend curves appear green when the price is above the trend line and red when it is below. Trend lines are labeled using the timeframe followed by 'T' (e.g., DT, WT, MT).
The EMA represents the weighted moving average of the most recent eight candles and is labeled with the timeframe followed by 'E' (e.g., DE, WE, ME).

Caution: This indicator is for educational or study purposes only, helping traders analyze the movement of both the EMA and trend lines across multiple price swings over an extended period across multi timeframe to gain proficiency at spotting trends.
