Enhanced Volume Trend Indicator with BB SqueezeEnhanced Volume Trend Indicator with BB Squeeze: Comprehensive Explanation
The visualization system allows traders to quickly scan multiple securities to identify high-probability setups without detailed analysis of each chart. The progression from squeeze to breakout, supported by volume trend confirmation, offers a systematic approach to identifying trading opportunities.
The script combines multiple technical analysis approaches into a comprehensive dashboard that helps traders make informed decisions by identifying high-probability setups while filtering out noise through its sophisticated confirmation requirements. It combines multiple technical analysis approaches into an integrated visual system that helps traders identify potential trading opportunities while filtering out false signals.
Core Features
1. Volume Analysis Dashboard
The indicator displays various volume-related metrics in customizable tables:
AVOL (After Hours + Pre-Market Volume): Shows extended hours volume as a percentage of the 21-day average volume with color coding for buying/selling pressure. Green indicates buying pressure and red indicates selling pressure.
Volume Metrics: Includes regular volume (VOL), dollar volume ($VOL), relative volume compared to 21-day average (RVOL), and relative volume compared to 90-day average (RVOL90D).
Pre-Market Data: Optional display of pre-market volume (PVOL), pre-market dollar volume (P$VOL), pre-market relative volume (PRVOL), and pre-market price change percentage (PCHG%).
2. Enhanced Volume Trend (VTR) Analysis
The Volume Trend indicator uses adaptive analysis to evaluate buying and selling pressure, combining multiple factors:
MACD (Moving Average Convergence Divergence) components
Volume-to-SMA (Simple Moving Average) ratio
Price direction and market conditions
Volume change rates and momentum
EMA (Exponential Moving Average) alignment and crossovers
Volatility filtering
VTR Visual Indicators
The VTR score ranges from 0-100, with values above 50 indicating bullish conditions and below 50 indicating bearish conditions. This is visually represented by colored circles:
"●" (Filled Circle):
Green: Strong bullish trend (VTR ≥ 80)
Red: Strong bearish trend (VTR ≤ 20)
"◯" (Hollow Circle):
Green: Moderate bullish trend (VTR 65-79)
Red: Moderate bearish trend (VTR 21-35)
"·" (Small Dot):
Green: Weak bullish trend (VTR 55-64)
Red: Weak bearish trend (VTR 36-45)
"○" (Medium Hollow Circle): Neutral conditions (VTR 46-54), shown in gray
In "Both" display mode, the VTR shows both the numerical score (0-100) alongside the appropriate circle symbol.
Enhanced VTR Settings
The Enhanced Volume Trend component offers several advanced customization options:
Adaptive Volume Analysis (volTrendAdaptive):
When enabled, dynamically adjusts volume thresholds based on recent market volatility
Higher volatility periods require proportionally higher volume to generate significant signals
Helps prevent false signals during highly volatile markets
Keep enabled for most trading conditions, especially in volatile markets
Speed of Change Weight (volTrendSpeedWeight, range 0-1):
Controls emphasis on volume acceleration/deceleration rather than absolute levels
Higher values (0.7-1.0): More responsive to new volume trends, better for momentum trading
Lower values (0.2-0.5): Less responsive, better for trend following
Helps identify early volume trends before they fully develop
Momentum Period (volTrendMomentumPeriod, range 2-10):
Defines lookback period for volume change rate calculations
Lower values (2-3): More responsive to recent changes, better for short timeframes
Higher values (7-10): Smoother, better for daily/weekly charts
Directly affects how quickly the indicator responds to new volume patterns
Volatility Filter (volTrendVolatilityFilter):
Adjusts significance of volume by factoring in current price volatility
High volume during high volatility receives less weight
High volume during low volatility receives more weight
Helps distinguish between genuine volume-driven moves and volatility-driven moves
EMA Alignment Weight (volTrendEmaWeight, range 0-1):
Controls importance of EMA alignments in final VTR calculation
Analyzes multiple EMA relationships (5, 10, 21 period)
Higher values (0.7-1.0): Greater emphasis on trend structure
Lower values (0.2-0.5): More focus on pure volume patterns
Display Mode (volTrendDisplayMode):
"Value": Shows only numerical score (0-100)
"Strength": Shows only symbolic representation
"Both": Shows numerical score and symbol together
3. Bollinger Band Squeeze Detection (SQZ)
The BB Squeeze indicator identifies periods of low volatility when Bollinger Bands contract inside Keltner Channels, often preceding significant price movements.
SQZ Visual Indicators
"●" (Filled Circle): Strong squeeze - high probability setup for an impending breakout
Green: Strong squeeze with bullish bias (likely upward breakout)
Red: Strong squeeze with bearish bias (likely downward breakout)
Orange: Strong squeeze with unclear direction
"◯" (Hollow Circle): Moderate squeeze - medium probability setup
Green: With bullish EMA alignment
Red: With bearish EMA alignment
Orange: Without clear directional bias
"-" (Dash): Gray dash indicates no squeeze condition (normal volatility)
The script identifies squeeze conditions through multiple methods:
Bollinger Bands contracting inside Keltner Channels
BB width falling to bottom 20% of recent range (BB width percentile)
Very narrow Keltner Channel (less than 5% of basis price)
Tracking squeeze duration in consecutive bars
Different squeeze strengths are detected:
Strong Squeeze: BB inside KC with tight BB width and narrow KC
Moderate Squeeze: BB inside KC with either tight BB width or narrow KC
No Squeeze: Normal market conditions
4. Breakout Detection System
The script includes two breakout indicators working in sequence:
4.1 Pre-Breakout (PBK) Indicator
Detects potential upcoming breakouts by analyzing multiple factors:
Squeeze conditions lasting 2-3 bars or more
Significant price ranges
Strong volume confirmation
EMA/MACD crossovers
Consistent price direction
PBK Visual Indicators
"●" (Filled Circle): Detected pre-breakout condition
Green: Likely upward breakout (bullish)
Red: Likely downward breakout (bearish)
Orange: Direction not yet clear, but breakout likely
"-" (Dash): Gray dash indicates no pre-breakout condition
The PBK uses sophisticated conditions to reduce false signals including minimum squeeze length, significant price movement, and technical confirmations.
4.2 Breakout (BK) Indicator
Confirms actual breakouts in progress by identifying:
End of squeeze or strong expansion of Bollinger Bands
Volume expansion
Price moving outside Bollinger Bands
EMA crossovers with volume confirmation
MACD crossovers with significant price range
BK Visual Indicators
"●" (Filled Circle): Confirmed breakout in progress
Green: Upward breakout (bullish)
Red: Downward breakout (bearish)
Orange: Unusual breakout pattern without clear direction
"◆" (Diamond): Special breakout conditions (meets some but not all criteria)
"-" (Dash): Gray dash indicates no breakout detected
The BK indicator uses advanced filters for confirmation:
Requires consecutive breakout signals to reduce false positives
Strong volume confirmation requirements (40% above average)
Significant price movement thresholds
Consistency checks between price action and indicators
5. Market Metrics and Analysis

7. Session Analysis and Volume Direction
Session Detection
The script accurately identifies different market sessions:
Pre-market: 4:00 AM to 9:30 AM
Regular market: 9:30 AM to 4:00 PM
After-hours: 4:00 PM to 8:00 PM
Closed: Outside trading hours
This detection works on any timeframe through careful calculation of current time in seconds.
Buy/Sell Volume Direction
The script analyzes buying and selling pressure by:
Counting up volume when close > open
Counting down volume when close < open
Tracking accumulated volume within the day
Calculating intraday pressure (up volume minus down volume)
Enhanced AVOL Calculation
The improved AVOL calculation works in all timeframes by:
Estimating typical pre-market and after-hours volume percentages
Combining yesterday's after-hours with today's pre-market volume
Calculating this as a percentage of the 21-day average volume
Determining buying/selling pressure by analyzing after-hours and pre-market price changes
Color-coding results: green for buying pressure, red for selling pressure
This calculation is particularly valuable because it works consistently across any timeframe.
Customization Options

Practical Trading Applications
Complete Trading Strategies
1. Squeeze Breakout Strategy
This strategy combines multiple components of the indicator:
Wait for a strong squeeze (SQZ showing ●)
Look for pre-breakout confirmation (PBK showing ● in green or red)
Enter when breakout is confirmed (BK showing ● in same direction)
Use VTR to confirm volume supports the move (VTR ≥ 65 for bullish or ≤ 35 for bearish)
Set profit targets based on ADR (Average Daily Range)
Exit when VTR begins to weaken or changes direction
2. Volume Divergence Strategy
This strategy focuses on the volume trend relative to price:
Identify when price makes a new high but VTR fails to confirm (divergence)
Look for VTR to show weakening trend (● changing to ◯ or ·)
Prepare for potential reversal when SQZ begins to form
Enter counter-trend position when PBK confirms reversal direction
Use external indicators (QQQ, BTC, Breadth) to confirm broader market support
3. Pre-Market Edge Strategy
This strategy leverages pre-market data:
Monitor AVOL for unusual pre-market activity (significantly above 100%)
Check pre-market price change direction (PCHG%)
Enter position at market open if VTR confirms direction
Use SQZ to determine if volatility is likely to expand
Exit based on RVOL declining or price reaching +/- ADR for the day
Market Context Integration
The indicator provides valuable context for trading decisions:
QQQ change shows tech market direction
BTC price shows crypto market correlation
UVIX change indicates volatility expectations
Breadth measurement shows market internals
This context helps traders avoid fighting the broader market and align trades with overall market direction.
Timeframe Optimization
The indicator is designed to work across different timeframes:
For day trading: Focus on AVOL, VTR, PBK/BK, and use shorter momentum periods
For swing trading: Focus on SQZ duration, VTR strength, and broader market indicators

Machine Learning Trendlines Cluster [LuxAlgo]The ML Trendlines Cluster indicator allows traders to automatically identify trendlines using a machine learning algorithm based on k-means clustering and linear regression, highlighting trendlines from clustered prices.
For trader's convenience, trendlines can be filtered based on their slope, allowing them to filter out trendlines that are too horizontal, or instead keep them depending on the user-selected settings.
🔶 USAGE
Traders only need to set the number of trendlines (clusters) they want the tool to detect and the algorithm will do the rest.
By default the tool is set to detect 4 clusters over the last 500 bars, in the image above it is set to detect 10 clusters over the same period.
This approach only focuses on drawing trendlines from prices that share a common trading range, offering a unique perspective to traditional trendlines. Trendlines with a significant slope can highlight higher dispersion within its cluster.
🔹 Trendline Slope Filtering
Traders can filter trendlines by their slope to display only steep or flat trendlines relative to a user-defined threshold.
The image above shows the three different configurations of this feature:
Filtering disabled
Filter slopes above threshold
Filter slopes below threshold
🔶 DETAILS
K-means clustering is a popular machine-learning algorithm that finds observations in a data set that are similar to each other and places them in a group.
The process starts by randomly assigning each data point to an initial group and calculating the centroid for each. A centroid is the center of the group. K-means clustering forms the groups in such a way that the variances between the data points and the centroid of the cluster are minimized.
The trendlines are displayed according to the linear regression function calculated for each cluster.
🔶 SETTINGS
Window Size: Maximum number of bars to get data from
Clusters: Maximum number of clusters (trendlines) to detect
🔹 Optimization
Maximum Iteration Steps: Maximum loop iterations for cluster computation
🔹 Slope Filter
Threshold Multiplier: Multiplier applied to a volatility measure, higher multiplier equals higher threshold
Filter Slopes: Enable/Disable Trendline Slope Filtering, select to filter trendlines with slopes ABOVE or BELOW the threshold
🔹 Style
Upper Zone: Color to display in the top zone
Lower Zone: Color to display in the bottom zone
Lines: Style for the lines
Size: Line size

Market Trend Levels Detector [BigBeluga]Market Trend Levels Detector is an trend-following tool that utilizes moving average crossovers to identify key market trend levels. By detecting local highs and lows after EMA crossovers, the indicator helps traders track significant price zones and trend strength.
🔵 Key Features:
EMA Crossover-Based Trend Levels Detection:
Uses a fast and slow EMA to detect market flow shifts.
When the fast EMA crosses under the slow EMA, the indicator searches for the most recent local top and marks it with a label and horizontal level.
When the fast EMA crosses over the slow EMA, it searches for the most recent local low and marks it accordingly.
Dynamic Zone Levels:
Each detected high or low is plotted as a horizontal level, highlighting important price zones.
Traders can extend these levels to observe how price interacts with them over time.
If price crosses a level, its extension stops. Uncrossed levels continue expanding.
Gradient Trend Band Visualization:
The trend band is formed by shading the area between the two EMAs.
Color intensity varies based on volatility and trend strength.
Strong trends and high volatility areas appear with more intense colors, making trend shifts visually distinct.
🔵 Usage:
Trend Identification: Use EMA crossovers and trend bands to confirm bullish or bearish momentum.
Key Zone Mapping: Observe local high/low levels to track historical reaction points.
Breakout & Rejection Signals: Monitor price interactions with extended levels to assess potential breakouts or reversals.

Supertrend + MACD Trend Change with AlertsDetailed Guide
1. Indicator Overview
Purpose:
This script combines the Supertrend and MACD indicators to help you detect potential trend changes. It plots a Supertrend line (green for bullish, red for bearish) and marks the chart with shapes when a trend reversal is signaled by both indicators. In addition, it includes alert conditions so that you can be notified when a potential trend change occurs.
How It Works:
Supertrend: Uses the Average True Range (ATR) to determine dynamic support and resistance levels. When the price crosses these levels, it signals a possible change in trend.
MACD: Focuses on the crossover between the MACD line and the signal line. A bullish crossover (MACD line crossing above the signal line) suggests upward momentum, while a bearish crossover (MACD line crossing below the signal line) suggests downward momentum.
2. Supertrend Component
Key Parameters:
Factor:
Function: Multiplies the ATR to create an offset from the mid-price (hl2).
Adjustment Impact: Lower values make the indicator more sensitive (producing more frequent signals), while higher values result in fewer, more confirmed signals.
ATR Period:
Function: Sets the number of bars over which the ATR is calculated.
Adjustment Impact: A shorter period makes the ATR react more quickly to recent price changes (but can be noisy), whereas a longer period provides a smoother volatility measurement.
Trend Calculation:
The script compares the previous close with the dynamically calculated upper and lower bands. If the previous close is above the upper band, the trend is set to bullish (1); if it’s below the lower band, the trend is bearish (-1). The Supertrend line is then plotted in green for bullish trends and red for bearish trends.
3. MACD Component
Key Parameters:
Fast MA (Fast Moving Average):
Function: Represents a shorter-term average, making the MACD line more sensitive to recent price movements.
Slow MA (Slow Moving Average):
Function: Represents a longer-term average to smooth out the MACD line.
Signal Smoothing:
Function: Defines the period for the signal line, which is a smoothed version of the MACD line.
Crossover Logic:
The script uses the crossover() function to detect when the MACD line crosses above the signal line (bullish crossover) and crossunder() to detect when it crosses below (bearish crossover).
4. Combined Signal Logic
How Signals Are Combined:
Bullish Scenario:
When the MACD shows a bullish crossover (MACD line crosses above the signal line) and the Supertrend indicates a bullish trend (green line), a green upward triangle is plotted below the bar.
Bearish Scenario:
When the MACD shows a bearish crossover (MACD line crosses below the signal line) and the Supertrend indicates a bearish trend (red line), a red downward triangle is plotted above the bar.
Rationale:
By combining the signals from both indicators, you increase the likelihood that the detected trend change is reliable, filtering out some false signals.
5. Alert Functionality
Alert Setup in the Code:
The alertcondition() function is used to define conditions under which TradingView can trigger alerts.
There are two alert conditions:
Bullish Alert: Activated when there is a bullish MACD crossover and the Supertrend confirms an uptrend.
Bearish Alert: Activated when there is a bearish MACD crossover and the Supertrend confirms a downtrend.
What Happens When an Alert Triggers:
When one of these conditions is met, TradingView registers the alert condition. You can then create an alert in TradingView (using the alert dialog) and choose one of these alert conditions. Once set up, you’ll receive notifications (via pop-ups, email, or SMS, depending on your settings) whenever a trend change is signaled.
6. User Adjustments and Their Effects
Factor (Supertrend):
Adjustment: Lowering the factor increases sensitivity, resulting in more frequent signals; raising it will filter out some signals, making them potentially more reliable.
ATR Period (Supertrend):
Adjustment: A shorter ATR period makes the indicator more responsive to recent price movements (but can introduce noise), while a longer period smooths out the response.
MACD Parameters (Fast MA, Slow MA, and Signal Smoothing):
Adjustment:
Shortening the Fast MA increases sensitivity, generating earlier signals that might be less reliable.
Lengthening the Slow MA produces a smoother MACD line, reducing noise.
Adjusting the Signal Smoothing changes how quickly the signal line responds to changes in the MACD line.
7. Best Practices and Considerations
Multiple Confirmation:
Even if both indicators signal a trend change, consider confirming with additional analysis such as volume, price action, or other indicators.
Market Conditions:
These indicators tend to perform best in trending markets. In sideways or choppy conditions, you may experience more false alerts.
Backtesting:
Before applying the indicator in live trading, backtest your settings to ensure they suit your trading style and the market conditions.
Risk Management:
Always use proper risk management, including stop-loss orders and appropriate position sizing, as alerts may occasionally produce late or false signals.
Happy trading!

Trend Levels with Crossover Boxes: Identifies trend shifts by tracking crossovers between fast and slow Kalman filters. When the fast line crosses above the slow line, a green box level appears, indicating a potential support zone. When it crosses below, a red box level forms, acting as a resistance zone.
Retest Signals for Support and Resistance Levels: Enable retest signals to capture price rejections at the established levels, providing possible re-entry points where the price confirms a support or resistance area.
Adaptive Candle Coloring by Trend Momentum: Candle colors adjust based on the trend's strength:
> During a downtrend, if the fast Kalman line shows upward movement, indicating reduced bearish momentum, candles turn gray to signal the weakening trend.
> In an uptrend, when the fast Kalman line declines, showing lower bullish momentum, candles become gray, signaling a potential slowdown in upward movement.
Crossover Signals with Price Labels: Displays arrows with price values at crossover points for quick reference, marking where the fast line overtakes or dips below the slow line. These labels provide a precise price snapshot of significant trend changes.
🔵 When to Use:
The Kalman Trend Levels indicator is ideal for traders looking to identify and act upon trend changes and significant price zones. By visualizing key levels and momentum shifts, this tool allows you to:
Define support and resistance zones that align with trend direction.
Identify and react to trend weakening or strengthening via candle color changes.
Use retest signals for potential re-entries at critical levels.
See crossover points and price values to gain a clearer view of trend changes in real time.
With its focus on trend direction, support/resistance, and momentum clarity, Kalman Trend Levels is an essential tool for navigating trending markets, providing actionable insights with every crossover and trend shift.

Zero-Lag MA Trend Levels [ChartPrime] The Zero-Lag MA Trend Levels indicator combines a Zero-Lag Moving Average (ZLMA) with a standard Exponential Moving Average (EMA) to provide a dynamic view of the market trend. This indicator uses a color-changing cloud to represent shifts in trend momentum and plots key levels when trend reversals are detected. The addition of trend level boxes helps identify significant price zones where market shifts occur, with retest signals aiding in spotting potential continuation or reversal points.
⯁ KEY FEATURES & HOW TO USE
⯌ Zero-Lag Moving Average (ZLMA) with EMA Cloud :
The indicator employs a Zero-Lag Moving Average (ZLMA) alongside a standard EMA.
series float emaValue = ta.ema(close, length) // EMA of the closing price
series float correction = close + (close - emaValue) // Correction factor for zero-lag calculation
series float zlma = ta.ema(correction, length) // Zero-Lag Moving Average (ZLMA)
The cloud between these averages changes color depending on the trend direction. During a downtrend, if the ZLMA begins to increase, the cloud partially turns green, signaling potential strength. Conversely, during an uptrend, if the ZLMA decreases, the cloud partially turns to the downtrend color (blue by default), indicating potential weakness.
Use : Traders can monitor the cloud's color shifts for early signs of changing momentum. A fully colored cloud aligning with the current trend indicates a strong directional move, while mixed colors suggest a potential trend change.
⯌ Trend Shift and Level Boxes :
Each time a crossover between the EMA and the ZLMA occurs, indicating a trend shift, the indicator plots a box around the price level where the shift occurred. This box remains on the chart to mark the price zone of the trend change.
Use : The boxes provide clear visual markers of where market sentiment shifted. These levels can act as support and resistance zones. Traders can use these boxes to identify potential entry or exit points when the market retests these key levels.
⯌ Retest Detection with Labels :
If the price action crosses a previously plotted trend level box, the indicator marks this event with triangle labels. An upward triangle (▲) appears when the price retests the top of a box during a bullish crossover, and a downward triangle (▼) appears when the price retests the bottom of a box during a bearish crossunder.
Use : These labels help traders identify potential continuation or reversal points at critical price levels, offering additional confirmation for trading decisions.
⯌ Dynamic Color-Coding :
The color of the ZLMA and the EMA is adjusted according to their current trend direction, with the ZLMA adopting green for upward trends and blue for downward trends. This visual representation makes it easier to quickly gauge the market's momentum at a glance.
Use : Traders can use the color-coding to quickly assess the strength and direction of the current trend, allowing for more informed decision-making.
⯁ USER INPUTS
Length : Sets the period for both the ZLMA and EMA calculations.
Trend Levels : Toggle to display the trend level boxes on the chart.
Colors (+ / -) : Define the colors for bullish and bearish trends.
⯁ CONCLUSION
The Zero-Lag MA Trend Levels - ChartPrime indicator offers a nuanced approach to trend detection by combining the ZLMA with a traditional EMA. Its dynamic cloud color changes, trend level boxes, and retest labels make it a versatile tool for traders seeking to identify trend shifts and key price zones effectively. By incorporating elements of support and resistance along with trend momentum, this indicator provides a comprehensive view of market dynamics for both trend-following and counter-trend trading strategies.
Trend Magic with EMA, SMA, and Auto-TradingRelease Notes
Strategy Name: Trend Magic with EMA, SMA, and Auto-Trading
Purpose: This strategy is designed to capture entry and exit points in the market using the Trend Magic indicator and three moving averages (EMA45, SMA90, and SMA180). Specifically, it uses the perfect order of the moving averages and the color changes in Trend Magic to identify trend reversals and potential trading opportunities.
Uniqueness and Usefulness
Uniqueness: The strategy utilizes the Trend Magic indicator, which is based on price and volatility, along with three moving averages to assess the strength of trends. The signals are generated only when the moving averages are in perfect order, and the Trend Magic color changes, ensuring that the entry is made during established trends. This combination provides a higher degree of reliability compared to strategies that rely solely on price action or single indicators.
Usefulness: This strategy is particularly useful for traders looking to capture trends over longer periods. It is effective at reducing noise in the market, only providing signals when the moving averages align and the Trend Magic indicator confirms a trend reversal. It works well in both trending and volatile markets.

Features:
Relative Volume Analysis: Measures the current volume relative to the average volume over a specified period, helping traders understand if the current trading activity is unusually high or low.
Short-Term Xtrender Oscillator: This oscillator analyzes the difference between two short-term Exponential Moving Averages (EMAs) and smooths it with a custom RSI, highlighting short-term trends and potential reversal points.
Long-Term Xtrender Oscillator: Similar to the short-term oscillator but uses longer-term EMAs and RSI for identifying more sustained trends and shifts.
T3 Moving Average: A smoothed version of the Xtrender oscillator that helps in detecting trend changes more clearly.
Volume Trend Plot: Shows the smoothed relative volume to understand how trading activity aligns with the trend.
Visual Indicators: Uses colors and shapes to highlight significant changes and trends, such as circles to mark potential reversal points.
How to Use the Indicator
Analyze Relative Volume:
Relative Volume Plot: The smoothed relative volume is displayed in white, helping you assess if current trading volumes are above or below the historical average.
High Relative Volume: Indicates strong trading interest, which could support or contradict the prevailing trend.
Image above: is set to daily timeframe
Monitor Short-Term Xtrender Oscillator
Short-Term Xtrender: Plotted as a column histogram with colors changing from green to red based on the oscillator's movement and momentum. Green and lime colors indicate bullish trends, while maroon and red suggest bearish conditions.
Smoothed Short-Term Xtrender (T3): Plotted as a line that adjusts color based on the short-term Xtrender's trend. The line changes color to match the histogram's color, providing a clearer view of momentum shifts.
Reversal Markers: Small circles indicate potential short-term trend reversals, where changes in the T3 moving average suggest shifts in momentum.
Assess Long-Term Xtrender Oscillator:
Long-Term Xtrender: Plotted as a histogram, with color changes similar to the short-term Xtrender. It shows longer-term trends and shifts.
Color Indicators: Lime and green colors suggest an uptrend, while red and maroon indicate a downtrend.
Look for Zero Line Crossings:
The zero line serves as a reference point. Crossings above the zero line may indicate bullish trends, while crossings below may signal bearish trends.
Image above: is set to daily timeframe, and it showcases the Short-Term Xtrender (T3) applied.
Image above: is set to 8hr timeframe: Using the lower timeframe you can spot better details of pullbacks and potential reversals.
Example of Use:
Identify Trend and Momentum: Use the combination of the short-term and long-term Xtrender oscillators to gauge the prevailing market trend. For instance, if both oscillators are above zero and showing upward momentum, it suggests a strong bullish trend.
Spot Reversals: Observe the short-term Xtrender and its smoothed T3 version. If the T3 line changes direction and crosses through previous peaks and troughs, it could signal a potential reversal.
Volume Confirmation: Check the relative volume and its smoothed version to confirm the strength of price movements. Significant changes in volume can validate the trends indicated by the Xtrender oscillators.
By combining these elements, the BX-Volume Trend and Oscillator (VTO) provides a holistic view of market dynamics, helping traders make more informed decisions based on trend strength, potential reversals, and volume activity.

Trend Strength | Flux Charts💎 GENERAL OVERVIEW
Introducing the new Trend Strength indicator! Latest trends and their strengths play an important role for traders. This indicator aims to make trend and strength detection much easier by coloring candlesticks based on the current strength of trend. More info about the process in the "How Does It Work" section.
Features of the new Trend Strength Indicator :
3 Trend Detection Algorithms Combined (RSI, Supertrend & EMA Cross)
Fully Customizable Algorithm
Strength Labels
Customizable Colors For Bullish, Neutral & Bearish Trends
📌 HOW DOES IT WORK ?
This indicator uses three different methods of trend detection and combines them all into one value. First, the RSI is calculated. The RSI outputs a value between 0 & 100, which this indicator maps into -100 <-> 100. Let this value be named RSI. Then, the Supertrend is calculated. Let SPR be -1 if the calculated Supertrend is bearish, and 1 if it's bullish. After that, latest EMA Cross is calculated. This is done by checking the distance between the two EMA's adjusted by the user. Let EMADiff = EMA1 - EMA2. Then EMADiff is mapped from -ATR * 2 <-> ATR * 2 to -100 <-> 100.
Then a Total Strength (TS) is calculated by given formula : RSI * 0.5 + SPR * 0.2 + EMADiff * 0.3
The TS value is between -100 <-> 100, -100 being fully bearish, 0 being true neutral and 100 being fully bullish.
Then the Total Strength is converted into a color adjusted by the user. The candlesticks in the chart will be presented with the calculated color.
If the Labels setting is enabled, each time the trend changes direction a label will appear indicating the new direction. The latest candlestick will always show the current trend with a label.
EMA = Exponential Moving Average
RSI = Relative Strength Index
ATR = Average True Range
🚩 UNIQUENESS
The main point that differentiates this indicator from others is it's simplicity and customization options. The indicator interprets trend and strength detection in it's own way, combining 3 different well-known trend detection methods: RSI, Supertrend & EMA Cross into one simple method. The algorithm is fully customizable and all styling options are adjustable for the user's liking.
⚙️ SETTINGS
1. General Configuration
Detection Length -> This setting determines the amount of candlesticks the indicator will look for trend detection. Higher settings may help the indicator find longer trends, while lower settings will help with finding smaller trends.
Smoothing -> Higher settings will result in longer periods of time required for trend to change direction from bullish to bearish and vice versa.
EMA Lengths -> You can enter two EMA Lengths here, the second one must be longer than the first one. When the shorter one crosses under the longer one, this will be a bearish sign, and if it crosses above it will be a bullish sign for the indicator.
Labels -> Enables / Disables trend strength labels.

ZigZag Smart Trend [TradingFinder] Major & Minor Structured Wave🔵 Introduction
🟣 Zigzag
Zigzag is a lagging indicator; this indicator identifies points on a price chart that have more significant changes than its previous wave and then by connecting these lines to each other, it assists traders in trend detection.
This indicator reduces random price fluctuations and attempts to make the primary price trend clearer.
🟣 Pivot
Pivots are points where the price chart changes direction. Pivots, also called reversal points, form when supply and demand forces dominate one another.
Different types of technical analysis pivots can be introduced into two categories, minor pivots, and major pivots, each of which has a specific meaning in analysis.
Major Pivot : These pivots actually indicate major changes in the direction of the chart and occur at the end of trends. Analysts seeking to reach the primary analysis focus more on major pivot points. In fact, most technical analysis tools are examined and determined based on major pivots.
Minor Pivot : This type of pivot focuses more on small and subsidiary points and directions. Therefore, it occurs at the end of corrections. Analysts focusing on minor pivots represent small trends, and it should be noted that minor pivots are not suitable for use in primary technical tools.
How to identify minor and major pivots :
Minor pivots are pivots formed between two major pivots and fail to break the opposite major pivot.
Major pivots are pivots that have either successfully broken the opposite pivot or have moved more than the previous pivot of the same type.
🔵 How to use
Based on identifying pivots and drawing zigzag lines, you can have various uses for this indicator.
Identifying support and resistance levels :
Identifying Elliott Waves :
Identifying classic patterns :
Identifying pivots with higher validity :
Identifying internal and external breakouts :
Identifying trends and range areas :
Identifying pivot types along with major and minor recognition :
MHH : Major Higher High

Trending RSI [ChartPrime]Trending RSI takes a new approach to RSI intended to provide all of the missing information that traditional RSI lacks. Questions such as "why does the price continue to decline even during an oversold period?" can be aided using the Trending RSI.
These types of movements are due to the market still trending and traditional RSI can not tell traders this. Trending RSI fixes this by introducing trend information back into the oscillator. By reverse engineering RSI we have been able to make a new indicator that is no longer bound between 0 and 100. Instead it provides the traditional 70 and 30 zones as bands, and 50 as a center line that still represent these zones perfectly. This transforms RSI into a centered oscillator instead of a normalized oscillator. When the market is trending our indicator represents this as the center line being below or above 0. Just like MACD the center line is colored to represent the market phases. This helps in identifying reversals more clearly by adding a layer of confluence to the already renowned RSI. We have also included a novel filtering technique that has a low lag to smoothing ratio. This is primarily used to smooth the bands by default but you can also utilize this on the RSI. Several alerts have been included to provide users with easy to configure signals.
You can use the center line as a directional filter for your trades by only picking trades in the direction of the center line. When the center line is above 0, the market is trending up. Conversely, when the center line is below 0 the market is trending down trend. Use the polarity of the center line to estimate the strength of retracements from the oversold and overbought zones. We have also included a special moving average to help you find the momentum of a move. The Binomial MA filter approximates a normal curve making it similar to a gaussian filter. We have also included standard divergences which are fully configurable in the settings. Finally, we have built this indicator to be compatible with the built in multi time frame option to allow users to freely pick the time frame they wish to use. It is worth noting that due to the limitations of the standard MTF implementation divergences will not plot as expected when using time frames outside of the charts time frame. This is standard and also affects the built in RSI.
All of the colors are fully adjustable with the option to enable or disable the glow effect. We have also designed this indicator to only display the information for plots that are enabled to reduce clutter and provide a cleaner charting experience. All alerts are built to work with the standard alert builder and do not have to be enabled or disabled inside of the indicator.
Included Alerts:
RSI Cross Over Center
RSI Cross Under Center
RSI Cross Under Upper Range
RSI Cross Over Upper Range
RSI Cross Over Lower Range
RSI Cross Under Lower Range
RSI Cross Over MA
RSI Cross Under MA
RSI Cross Over 0
RSI Cross Under 0
Center Cross Over 0
Center Cross Under 0
Center Bullish
Center Bearish
Bullish Divergence
Bearish Divergence
In wrapping up, the Trending RSI aims to enhance the conventional RSI by adding trend insights directly into the oscillator, addressing the gap that traditional RSI leaves regarding market trends. This version of RSI breaks away from the 0 to 100 range, offering bands and a center line that better represent market conditions. It includes a set of features like the Binomial MA for momentum analysis, configurable settings for divergence detection, and compatibility with multi-time frame analysis. The color customization and glow effects aim to improve visual clarity, and the inclusion of alerts is designed to streamline alert configuration. Overall, this indicator is designed to provide a more view of the markets, suitable for traders looking to incorporate trend analysis into their RSI-based strategies.

TrendLine CrossThis indicator "TrendLine Cross", is designed to plot trend lines so you can spot potential trend reversal points on the charts. The main function is to draw several lines on the chart and identify the crossings between these lines, which can be significant indicators for trading. The lines are based on different periods which can be changed in the settings tabs.
Let's see the characteristics of the trend lines:
_Low Line Color(Green Line): This line connects the lowest point of low prices in the "low_time" period with the lowest point of low prices in the "high_time" period. Indicates a possible short-term support level on the chart.
_Liquidity Up Line Color (Golden Line): This line connects the lowest point of low prices in the "low_time" period with the highest point of low prices in the same period. It represents a liquidity zone and an important resistance in the chart.
_Lower Line Color (Blue Line): This horizontal line connects the lowest point of low prices in the "LowerLine_period" with the lowest point of low prices in the "high_time" period. Indicates a possible long-term support level.
_Upper Line Colorr: This line represents a connection between the highest points of the "high_time" period and the lowest point of the "LowerLine_period". Indicates a possible long-term resistance level.
_Up Line Color (Red Line): This line connects the highest point of high prices in the "high_time" period with the highest point of high prices in the "LowerLine_period". It represents a possible long-term resistance level.
_Liquidity Down Line Color(Golden Line): This line connects the highest point of high prices in the "high_time" period with the highest point of low prices in the "low_time" period. It represents a liquidity point and an important support zone.
The indicator becomes particularly interesting when the lines make crossings. These crossovers could suggest a potential trend change in the market. For example:
Change from Bearish to Bullish: If the "long-term" line (black) crosses the "short- or long-term" line (green or blue) from top to bottom, it could indicate a shift from a bearish to a bullish market , suggesting the opportunity for long positions.
_Changing from Bullish to Bearish: If the "long-term" line (blue) crosses the "short-term" line (red or black) from bottom to top, it could indicate a shift from a bullish to a bearish market, suggesting the opportunity for short positions.
Generally speaking, crossings between these lines can be key points of interest for traders, as they can signal significant changes in price direction.
Multi Timeframe Trend StrengthThis code is an advancement of my previous percentile-based trend strength. It follows the same concept, except this code display the trend and trend strength in multiple timeframe (1 min, 5 min, 15 min, 1hr and 4hr).
This gives an indication of the trend is evolving and allows to see how short-term trend matches with the long-term trend.
How it works:
The script assesses trend strength through percentile values derived from high and low prices across various time periods. It categorizes the current trend as either Bullish, Bearish, or N/A (No Trend) with the following steps:
Percentile Calculations: The code calculates the 75th percentile of high prices (e.g., percentile_13H) and the 25th percentile of low prices (e.g., percentile_13L) for specified Fibonacci-based periods (13, 21, 34, 55, 89, and 144). These percentiles serve as thresholds for identifying strong trends.
Calculate Highest High and Lowest Low: It computes the highest high (75th percentile high price of the longest period) and lowest low (25th percentile low price of the longest period), referred to as highest_high and lowest_low. These values establish critical price levels.
Trend Strength Conditions: For each percentile and period, the code checks if the percentile exceeds the highest high (trendBull) or falls below the lowest low (trendBear). These conditions gauge the strength of bullish and bearish trends.
Count Bull and Count Bear: Variables countBull and countBear tally the number of bullish and bearish conditions met, helping assess trend strength.
Weak Bull and Weak Bear Count: The code calculates weak bullish and bearish conditions, occurring when percentiles fall within the range defined by highest_high and lowest_low but don't meet strong trend criteria.
Bull Strength and Bear Strength: bullStrength and bearStrength are calculated based on counts of bullish, bearish, weak bullish, and weak bearish conditions, representing overall trend strength.
Strong Bull and Bear Conditions: These conditions arise when the 75th percentile of high prices (bull conditions) or the 25th percentile of low prices (bear conditions) surpass or dip below the highest high or lowest low, respectively, for the specified period. Strong conditions indicate robust trends with significant price movements.
Weak Bull and Bear Conditions: Weak conditions occur when percentiles fall within the range between highest_high and lowest_low, suggesting some bullish or bearish tendencies without reaching extreme levels. These imply less decisive trends.
Current Trend Identification: The current trend is determined by comparing bullStrength and bearStrength. A greater bullStrength indicates a Bull trend, greater bearStrength implies a Bear trend, and equal values denote No Trend (N/A).
Trendline Breakouts With Targets [ChartPrime]The Trendline Breakouts With Targets indicator is meticulously crafted to improve trading decision-making by pinpointing trendline breakouts and breakdowns through pivot point analysis.
Here's a comprehensive look at its primary functionalities:
Upon the occurrence of a breakout or breakdown, a signal is meticulously assessed against a false signal condition/filter, after which the indicator promptly generates a trading signal. Additionally, it conducts precise calculations to determine potential target levels and then exhibits them graphically on the price chart.
🔷 Key Features:
🔸 Trendline Drawing: The indicator automatically plots trendlines based on significant pivot points and wick data, visually representing the prevailing trend.
🔸 Breakout and Breakdown Signals : It triggers trading signals when a breakout (price moves above the trendline) or a breakdown (price moves below the trendline) is detected, helping traders identify potential entry points.
🔸 False Breakout/ Breakdown Filter ✔️: To enhance accuracy, the indicator incorporates a filter to reduce false breakout and breakdown signals, helping traders avoid premature entries.
🔸 Target Calculation: The indicator performs target-level calculations, a critical aspect of trade management.
These calculated target levels are visually displayed on the price chart, helping traders set precise profit targets and make well-informed trading decisions.
🔸 Color-Change Labels: The indicator features label color changes to provide quick visual cues. Labels are initially displayed in orange. When a take profit (TP) level is reached, the label changes to green, indicating a successful trade. Conversely, if a stop-loss (SL) level is hit, the label turns red, signaling a losing trade.
🔸 Settings :
This indicator combines technical analysis, trendline identification, breakout/breakdown signals, and risk management tools to assist traders in making more informed and efficient trading decisions. It can be a valuable addition to any trader's toolkit, helping them identify potential trade opportunities and manage risk effectively.
LNL Trend SystemLNL Trend System is an ATR based day trading system specifically designed for intra-day traders and scalpers. The System works on any chart time frame & can be applied to any market. The study consist of two components - the Trend Line and the Stop Line. Trend System is based on a special ATR calculation that is achieved by combining the previous values of the 13 EMA in relation to the ATR which creates a line of deviations that visually look similar to the basic moving average but actually produce very different results ESPECIALLY in sideways market.
Trend Line:
Trend Line is a simple line which is basically a fast gauge represented by the 13 EMA that can change the color based on the current trend structure defined by multiple averages (8,13,21,34 EMAs). Trend Line is there to simply add the confluence for the current trend. Colors of the line are pretty much self-explanatory. Whenever the line turns red it states that the current structure is bearish. Vice versa for green line. Gray line represents neutral market structure.
Stop Line:
Stop Line is an ATR deviaton line with special calculation based on the previous bar ATRs and position of the price in relation to the current and previous values of 13 EMA. As already stated, this creates an ATR deviation marker either above or below the price that trails the price up or down until they touch. Whenever the price comes into the Stop Line it means it is making an ATR expansion move up or down .This touch will usually resolve into a reaction (a bounce) which provides trade opportunities.
Trend Bars:
When turned ON, Trend Bars can provide additional confulence of the current trend alongside with the Trend Line color. Trend Bars are based on the DMI and ADX indicators. Whenever the DMI is bearish and ADX is above 20 the candles paint themselfs red. And vice versa applies for the green candles and bullish DMI. Whenever the ADX falls below the 20, candles are netural (Gray) which means there is no real trend in place at the moment.
Trend Mode:
There are total of 5 different trend modes available. Each mode is visualizing different ATR settings which provides either aggressive or more conservative approach. The more tigher the mode, the more closer the distance between the price and the Stop Line. First two modes were designed for slower markets, whereas the "Loose" and "FOMC" modes are more suitable for products with high volatility.
Trend Modes:
1. Tight
Ideal for the slowest markets. Slowest market can be any market with unusually small average true range values or just simply a market that does have a personality of a "sleeper". Tight Mode can be also used for aggresive entries in the most ridiculous trends. Sometimes price will barely pullback to the Trend Line not even the Stop Line.
2. Normal
Normal Mode is the golden mean between the modes. "Normal" provides the ideal ATR lengths for the most used markets such as S&P Futures (ES) or SPY, AAPL and plenty of other highly popular stocks. More often than not, the length of this mode is respected considering there is no breaking news or high impact market event scheduled.
3. Loose
The "Loose" mode is basically a normal mode but a little bit more loose. This mode is useful whenever the ATRs jump higher than usual or during the days of highly anticipated news events. This mode is also better suited for more active markets such as NQ futures.
4. FOMC
The FOMC mode is called FOMC for a reason. This mode provides the maximum amount of wiggle room between the price and the Stop Line. This mode was designed for the extreme volatility, breaking news events or post-FOMC trading. If the market quiets down, this mode will not get the Stop Line touch as frequently as othete modes, thus it is not very useful to run this on markets with the average volatlity. Although never properly tested, perhaps the FOMC mode can find its value in the crypto market?
5. The Net
The net mode is basically a combination of all modes into one stop line system which creates "the net" effect. The Net provides the widest Stop Line zone which can be mainly appreciated by traders that like to use scale-in scale-out methods for their trading. Not to mention the visual side of the indicator which looks pretty great with the net mode on.
HTF (Higher Time Frame) Trend System:
The system also includes additional higher time frame (HTF) trend system. This can be set to any time frame by manual HTF mode. HTF mode set to "auto" will automatically choose the best suitable higher time frame trend system based on how appropriate the aggregation is. For everything below 5min the HTF Trend System will stay on 5min. Anything between 5-15min = 30min. 30min - 120min will turn on the 240min. 180min and higher will result in Daily time frame. Anything above the Daily will result in Weekly HTF aggregation, above W = Monthly, above M = Quarterly.
Background Clouds:
In terms of visualization, each trend system is fully customizable through the inputs settings. There is also an option to turn on/off the background clouds behind the stop lines. These clouds can make the charts more clean & visible.
Tips & Tricks:
1. Different Trend Modes
Try out different modes in different markets. There is no one single mode that will fit to everyone on the same type of market. I myself actually prefer more Loose than the Normal.
2. Stop Line Mirroring
Whenever the Stop Lines start to mirror each other (there is one above the price and one below) this means the price is entering a ranging sideways market. It does not matter which Stop Line will the price touch first. They can both be faded until one of them flips.
3. Signs of the Ranging Market
Watch out for signs of ranging market. Whenever the Trend System looses its colors whether on trend line or trend bars, if everything turns neutral (gray) that is usually a solid indication of a range type action for the following moments. Also as already stated before, the Stop Line mirroring is a good sign of the range market.
4. Trailing Tool, Trend System as an Additional Study?
In case you are not a fan of the colorful green / red charts & candles. You can switch all of them off and just leave the Stop Line on. This way you can use the benefits of the trend system and still use other studies on top of that. Similarly as the Parabolic SAR is often used.
5. The Flip Setup
One of my favorite trades is the Flip Setup on the 5min charts. Whenever the Stop Line is broken , the very first opposing touch after the Trend System flips is a usually a highly participated touch. If there is a strong reaction, this means this is likely a beginning of a new trend. Once I am in the position i like to trail the Stop Line on the 1min charts.
Hope it helps.
