Trend Persistence Rate Indicator [CC]The Trend Persistence Rate Indicator was created by Richard Poster (Stocks and Commodities Feb 2021 pg 12) and this indicator is a good trend strength indicator similar to ADX. A good strategy with this indicator according to the author is to combine this with a moving average crossover strategy and a volatility indicator. Buy when the price crosses over the moving average and when the volatility and this indicator are over a selected minimum. I think 30-40 as a minimum for this indicator works well. Exit that position when this indicator peaks and starts to go down and it should be very profitable for you. I have included general buy and sell signals with this indicator as well.

[SK] Fibonacci Auto Trend ScouterThe FATS - Fibonacci Auto Trend Scouter automatically draws active trends from 2 different timeframes along with Fibonacci Support and Resistance levels. It also has a Sights feature for each timeframe which points from it's middle towards the current price. The tool is also highly customizable for you to take this indicator over 9000. If you like the tool and it adds value to you - share the love on the like button and visit my profile to check out my other indicators and subscribe, so you're notified of my next scripts and ideas!
Automatic Trend Lines
The indicator takes in 2 timeframes to detect High and Low values from which to draw the trend lines of each timeframe.
As the values change with price movement, the lines are updated. They are color coded for uptrend and downtrend based on the direction of each individual line. Trend lines can be set up to color with only the default value on the configurations panel.
- Toggle on/off Color Coded
- Change Default, Uptrend, Downtrend color
- Change Line Width
- Change Line Style
- Toggle on/off Line Extensions
- Change Extended Line Width
- Change Extended Line Style
- Toggle On/Off labels for 7 data points of each timeframe
Automatic Trend Sights
This is a neat feature that may help you get a better feel for the direction the current movement is heading towards in correlation with the short or medium length timeframe trends. The sight draws a line from the middle vertical point of the trend coordinates towards the current price. They are toggled off by default but can be enabled in the configurations panel.
- Toggle on/off sight on each timeframe
- Change Width
- Change Line Style
Automatic Fibonacci Levels
The tool has a very useful feature to automatically detect the highest and lowest value from the short timeframe to calculate Fibonacci support and resistant levels. To keep the chart area clean, the lines are drawn short by default towards the right side of the price but provide inputs to increase the size of the level lines towards the left and right direction. A triangle label appears to the side of each line which holds the Fibonacci level and price data inside the tooltip, hover over them to activate.

Easy TrendThis signal is completely based on analysis and transformation of a single simple moving average. As with all signals and indicators, it should be combined with others.
This is how the signal is built:
1. First it takes the SMA of the closing price.
2. It then takes the ROC of that SMA using a length of 1.
3. It takes an 8-period SMA and also a 64-period SMA of that ROC.
4. These are plotted as follows:
- the ROC is plotted in green when above 0 (trending up) and red when below 0 (trending down).
- the 8-period SMA is plotted as a thin white line within the ROC signal
- the 64-period SMA is plotted as a thick white line within the ROC signal
When the trendline is green, this is a bullish zone. When the trendline is red, this is a bearish zone.
Moving averages (all types of moving averages) are inherently lagging signals. To compensate for that, I am offsetting each SMA series by half of its period. This may be confusing to some, but the end result is a mathematically accurate SMA signal, centered on the signal that it is providing the moving average of. It doesn't stop the lag, but it directly and obviously shows how lagged each signal is, which I personally find better to trade against.
Symbols on the top and bottom of indicator:
Yellow triangle at bottom of indicator shows where a downward trend is starting to bottom out and a buy/long opening may be available soon.
Green triangle at bottom of indicator shows that a downward trend has switched to an upward trend. This indicates a good time to buy.
Yellow triangle at top of indicator shows where an upward trend is starting to plateau and a sell/short opening may be available soon.
Red triangle at top of indicator shows that an upward trend has switched to a downward trend. This indicates a good time to sell.
Note: You may see multiple yellow triangles before seeing a green or red triangle. This can happen when multiple trend accelerations or decelerations occur within an overall green or red zone.
In addition there is a dotted line connecting the end of the 64-period SMA to the end of the 8-period SMA. This indicates the direction the trend is moving towards. When the dotted line crosses the zero line, this portrays a rough estimate of where the trend may switch from a downtrend to an uptrend or vice versa. This is the "best" time to buy or sell, depending on your strategy.
I recommend placing a SMA on your candles set to the same window size as this indicator, and also to offset that SMA to the left by half its window size. For example, a 90-period SMA should be offset by -45 periods. That will cause it to be correctly aligned with this trend signal.
Trend Extractor First off, I'm a huge John Ehlers admirer. Been learning a lot from him. This indicator was inspired by his Super Bandpass Filter.
The goal of this indicator, which I'm calling "Trend Extractor" for lack of a better name, is to identify trends and filter out choppy market movements, similar to the Super Bandpass Filter,... but arguably more customisable. Personally, I've had better results with this Trend Extractor.
A brief overview of how it works:
The price changes are averaged over the lookback period using the Arnaud Legoux Moving Average (ALMA), which has been chosen for its superb versatility.
For instance, with Offset 1 and Sigma 0, it behaves like a SMA, and with Offset 1.1 and Sigma 2, it behaves like a WMA. So, feel free to tweak and experiment.
The purple lines are the positive and negative root mean square (RMS) of the main line, and act as signal lines.
The higher the Smoothing, the smoother the main line, at the cost of greater lag. Default is 1, that is, none. I'd suggest going not higher than 5.
Signals are straightforward to interpret. Trending up when green, trending down when red, and ranging when gray.
Your feedback is very well appreciated. Thank you. :)
EMA TrendThe purpose of this script is to identify price trends based on EMAs. The relative position of price to specific EMAs and the position of certain EMAs towards each other are used to determine the trend direction. The script is intended for investors as a tool to define a basis for further evaluation. I do not use the script as a signal generator and would not recommend doing so without the help of additional indicators.
How to work with the script
The major (or long term) trend direction is determined by the 144 EMA much in the same way as the 200 MA is used in other systems. If the price is above the 144 EMA we are in a long term uptrend, below we are in a long term downtrend. This is to be taken with a grain of salt though. The 144 EMA is considerably shorter than the 200 SMA and is more prone to the price fluctuating around it during periods without a strong long term trend. I recommend using this as a confirmation for the short term trend.
The short term trend is derived from the position and slope of the price, the 21 EMA and the 55 EMA. If the price is above the 21 EMA, the 21 above the 55 EMA, both EMAs are sloping upwards and the distance between the two is increasing, we are talking about an uptrend (and vice versa for a downtrend). This is visualized by the color of the fill between the 144 EMA and close price. Green for uptrend, red for downtrend and no color for an undetermined trend.
The EMAs used are: 21 , 34 , 55 , 89 , 144 , 233 . Most of the EMAs are at 50 transparency to appear less dominant. For orientation, the 144 EMA is bright green to indicate its general importance for the trend determination, and the 55 EMAs is not transparent mainly to be able to identify positioning when the EMAs are close together.
Base time frame EMA
The 144 EMA is plotted twice where one is fixed to the daily time frame (can be configured) to be able to have the 144 on different timeframes during analysis. I find this very useful to keep the focus on my main time frame while analyzing trend on lower or higher time frames. This can also be turned off.
Configurability
This script is less configurable than I generally like with my other scripts. The reason is that the title attribute of the plots is not dynamic, and I use the data window often to get exact values from the script to determine buy targets for pullbacks and other things. Hence, I prefer not to have random names (or no names) in there to save mental capacity. If this ever becomes available, I'll gladly add this to this script. Till then, I encourage you to take the script and adjust it to your own needs. It should be simple enough even if you are just starting out in pine.
ysantur trendfollowerIt is an indicator that aims to stay in the trend by generating a buy or sell signal according to the intersection of two moving averages. The first trend line is a moving average whose weights are calculated based on fibonacci numbers or golden ratio. The second trend line is achieved by smoothing the first. Thus, two trend lines, one faster and one slower, are obtained.
How does it work
- When the fast line cross over the slow line, it generates a buy signal. On the contrary, a sell signal occurs when the fast trend line cross under the slower trend
- The area between the two trend lines is colored for easier understanding. Blue cloud shows "Bullish", gray cloud shows "Bearish"
- If prices are above the blue cloud, it indicates a strong Bullish trend.
- When prices go under the gray cloud, a strong bearish trend is observed.
- Prices being in the cloud should be treated as a "Hold" signal. In this case, the fast trend will act as resistance and slow trend act as a support. Position should be changed according to the situation.
- While there is a blue cloud, that is, in the bull trend, the two trend lines moving too far from each other may indicate a possible correction / reversal.
- While there is a gray cloud, that is, in the bear trend, the divergence of two trend lines from each other may indicate a possible correction / reversal.
- While in the bearish trend, prices move far from the cloud and re-enter into the cloud in near time. When these levels are monitored carefully, a return from a possible bear trend can be caught early.
As with every indicator, it can produce false signals in the horizontal market, so it should not be used alone. I continue to improve on it to put it in less positions due to commission and slip, not to generate false signals in the horizontal market. Now I can say that it produces good results in daily periods, not bad in hourly and 4 hours periods. Backtest is required for shorter periods. Please feel free to comment and write for my improvement.
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
Optimized Trend TrackerA brand new indicator from the developer of MOST (Moving Stop Loss) indicator Anıl Özekşi.
Optimized Trend Tracker OTT is an indicator that provides traders to find an existing trend or in another words to ser which side of the current trend we are on.
We are under the effect of the uptrend in cases where the prices are above OTT ,
under the influence of a downward trend, when prices are below OTT
it is possible to say that we are.
The first parameter in the OTT indicator set by the two parameters is the period/length.
OTT will be much sensitive to trend movements if it is smaller. And vice versa, will be less sensitive when it is longer.
As the period increases it will become less sensitive to little trends and price actions.
In this way, your choice of period, will be closely related to which of the sort of trends you are interested in.
The OTT percent parameter in OTT is an optimization coefficient. Just like in the period
small values are better at capturing short term fluctuations, while large values
will be more suitable for long-term trends.
In addition, when OTT is used with the support line in it, buy and sell signals
it will become a producing indicator.
You can use OTT default alarms and Buy Sell signals like:
1-
BUY when Prices are above OTT
SELL when Prices are below OTT
2-
BUY when OTT support Line crosses over OTT line.
SELL when OTT support Line crosses under OTT line.
3-
BUY when OTT line is Green and makes higher highs.
SELL when OTT line is Red and makes lower lows.
Note: A small coverage with English subtitles will be available on my Youtube Channel soon.
EMA Slope Cross Trend Follower StrategyThis strategy uses the cross of the slopes of two EMAs having different lengths to generate trend follower signals. By default, I use 130 and 400, which behave very well.
The conditions which make the strat enter the market are:
- Fast Slope > Slow Slope and price > EMA 200 : go Long
- Fast Slope < Slow Slope and price < EMA200 : go Short
The simple slopes cross in the opposite direction, closes the position.
The strategy performs best on Bitcoin and the most liquid and capitalized Altcoins, but works greatly on volatile assets as well, in particular if they often go trending.
Works best on 4h time frame.
There's also an optional Volatility filter, which opens the position only if the difference between the two slopes is more than a specific value, which can be set in the strategy inputs. The purpose is not opening positions if price is going sideways and the noise is way > than the signal.
Enjoy it!
Ehlers Instantaneous Trendline V1 [CC]The Instantaneous Trendline was created by John Ehlers (Rocket Science For Traders pgs 109-110) and this indicator is perfect for determining the medium to long term trend. Buy when the indicator line is green and sell when it is red. I will be introducing a different version of this indicator which is perfect for short term trends so these will pair great together.
Let me know if there are other scripts you would like to see me publish or if you want something custom done!
Trend Follow with kijun-sen/tenkan sen for 1 Hour SPX
This script determines, plots and alerts on probable trend initiation and continuation points, using tenkan-sen(conversion line of ichimoku), kijun-sen(baseline of ichimoku) and stochastic RSI, for 1 H SPX.
New long/short trend initiates when prices cross above/below kijun sen. The trend continues when prices cross above/below tenkan-sen or stochastic RSI crosses up/down its signal line, while prices are above/below kijun-sen.
It is good to take partial profit between 10-15 points gain and trail the left with stops below kijun-sen line.
While placing the order, using 2-3 points buffer above/below of signal bars is recommended. Additionally, please be careful about clouds and do not place long/short orders below/above clouds.

Automatic TrendlinesIntroduction
For a full free tutorial explaining this code in more detail, visit the backtest-rookies (.com) website.
This indicator will plot two trend lines at any given time. A resistance trend line and a support trend line. The resistance trend is shown with red circles and is created by joining swing highs together. The second is a support trend which is created by joining swing lows.
Since we need swings to make the trend, the trend line code contains code for the swing detection. You can play around with the swing detection to alter how frequently new trend lines are detected. Relying on swings also means that there will be some delay in trend detection depending on how you configure the swing detection. The higher you set rightbars, the more lag you will have before a trend is detected. However, at the same time the quality of the pivots found will increase. So it is a trade-off you need to come to terms with and decide what the best settings are for you.
Lines
A single trend line is made up of several components.
Pivot Points: Marked as blue or orange circles. There will be two pivots per trend.
Orange/Purple Lines: Connecting all pivot points. You will see these lines change direction slightly each time a new pivot is detected (new circles appear).
Green/Red Circle lines: Showing the trend line from the earliest moment a new trend is detected.
Blue Dashed lines: Joining the purple and green/red circle lines so the full trend line can be seen.
Note: The blue dashed lines use pine-scripts drawing functions. As such, there is a limit to how many of these can be placed on a chart. When the limit is reached, the oldest line will be removed so the newest can be drawn. This means that if you detect enough trends and scroll back in time, the blue dashed lines will disappear at some point!

Trend Follower | jhThis is a trend following system that combines 3 indicators which provide different functionalities, also a concept conceived by VP's No Nonsense FX / NNFX method.
1. Baseline
The main baseline filter is an indicator called Modular Filter created by Alex Grover
- www.tradingview.com
- Alex Grover - Modular Filter
-------
That's the moving average like baseline following price, filtering long and short trends and providing entry signals when the price crosses the baseline.
Entry signal indicated with arrows.
2. Volume/Volatility, I will called it Trend Strength
The next indicator is commonly known as ASH, Absolute Strength Histogram.
This indicator was shared by VP as a two line cross trend confirmation indicator, however I discovered an interesting property when I modified the calculation of the histogram.
- Alex Grover Absolute Strength
-------
My modification and other info here
- Absolute Strength Histogram v2
-------
I simplified the display of the trend strength by plotting squares at the bottom of the chart.
- Lighted Squares shows strength
- Dimmed Squares shows weakness
3. Second Confirmation / Exits / Trailing Stop
Finally the last indicator is my usage of QQE (Qualitative Quantitative Estimation), demonstrated in my QQE Trailing Line Indicator
- QQE Trailing Line for Trailing Stop
-------
Three usages of this amazing indicator, serving as :
- Second trend confirmation
- Exit signal when price crosses the trailing line
- Trailing stop when you scaled out the second trade
This indicator is plotted with crosses.
Additional plots and information
Bar Color
- Green for longs, Red for shorts, White when the baseline direction conflicts with the QQE trailing line direction
- When it's white, it's usually ranging and not trending, ASH will also keep you off ranging periods.
-------
ATR Filter
- White circles along the baseline, they will show up if the price has moved more than one ATR from the baseline
- The default allowance is 1 ATR.
-------
The previous and current ATR value
- Label on the right side of the chart showing the previous and current value of ATR

HMA-Kahlman Trend & TrendlinesThis script utilizes two modules, Trendlines module (by Joris Duyck) and HMA-Kahlman Trend module. Trendlines module produces crossovers predictive of the next local trend.
(ES, NQ) Trend Checker SB1(ES, NQ) Trend Checker SB1
Stay ahead of the market by tracking whether the E-mini S&P 500 (ES) and the Nasdaq 100 (NQ) are moving in sync.
📊 How it works:
The script checks whether each index is bullish (close > open) or bearish (close < open).
If both are aligned (all bullish or all bearish), conditions are stable.
If they diverge, the indicator instantly flags a mismatch in trend.
🎯 Features:
Background shading to highlight mismatched conditions.
Real-time alerts when ES and NQ fall out of sync.
Works on any timeframe.
🔥 Why it matters:
When ES and NQ move together, market momentum is usually stronger and cleaner.
But when they disagree, expect choppiness, fakeouts, or caution zones — the perfect heads-up before entering trades.
Bullish/Bearish Trend Indicator [MTF + Alerts] by Dow theory Summary of Logic:
✅ Bullish Trend:

Confirmation Bar: High > Highest High of last 3 candles, Low ≥ Setup Bar Low
Trend Continues Until: Latest candle breaks 2nd last candle’s low → then trend becomes Bearish
🔻 Bearish Trend:
Setup Bar: Low < Previous Low AND High ≤ Previous High
Confirmation Bar: Low < Lowest Low of last 3 candles, High ≤ Setup Bar High
Trend Continues Until: Latest candle breaks 2nd last candle’s high → then trend becomes Bullish
SuperTrend Strategy with Trend-Based Exits🟩 SuperTrend Strategy with Trend-Based Exits
This is a fully automated trend-following strategy based on the popular SuperTrend indicator, enhanced with a position sizing algorithm tied to stop-loss distance and dynamic entry/exit rules. The strategy is designed for futures trading with an emphasis on sustainable risk, realistic backtesting, and transparent logic.
🧠 Concept and Methodology
The strategy uses the SuperTrend indicator, which is derived from ATR (Average True Range) and is widely used to capture medium- to long-term market trends.
Key features:
✅ Entries are triggered only when the SuperTrend direction changes (trend reversal).
✅ Exits are performed using a dynamic stop-loss placed at the SuperTrend line.
✅ Position size is automatically calculated based on the trader’s fixed dollar risk per trade and the current distance to the stop-loss.
✅ Rounding logic is included to ensure quantity is valid for the exchange’s lot size.
This strategy does not use any take-profit or classic trailing stop — the position is only closed when the trend reverses or the stop is hit by touching the SuperTrend line.
⚙️ Default Parameters
ATR Length: 300
Factor: 7.5
Risk per trade: $90 (3% of the default $3,000 capital)
Lot step: 10
Commission: 0.05%
These default parameters are not universal. They were optimized specifically for STXUSDT swap at 15M timeframe at Bybit and may not produce viable results on other pairs and timeframes.
Users are encouraged to customize the settings according to specific asset’s volatility, timeframe and other characteristics.
❗ These default settings yield meaningful backtesting results on STXUSDT with a reasonable number of trades (105+) over 7-month period. If applied to other assets, results may vary significantly.
📈 Position Sizing Logic
The strategy uses a dynamic position sizing formula:
Pine Script®
position_size = floor((risk_per_trade / stop_loss_distance) / lot_step) * lot_step
This ensures the trader always risks a fixed dollar amount per trade and never exceeds a sustainable equity exposure (recommended 2% or less).
✅ Realism in Backtesting
To ensure realistic and non-misleading backtest results, this strategy includes:
— Slippage and commission settings matching average exchange conditions (commission = 0.05%, slippage 5 ticks).
— Position sizing based on stop-loss distance (not fixed contract quantity).*
— A fixed risk-per-trade model that adheres to responsible capital management principles.
— This is in compliance with TradingView's Script publishing rules and House Rules.
📌 How to Use
Apply the strategy to a clean chart (preferably 15M for STXUSDT by default).
If using another asset, adjust:
- ATR Length
- Factor
- Risk per trade
- Qty step (lot precision for the symbol)
Avoid using with other indicators unless you understand their purpose.
Use the Strategy Tester to evaluate performance and optimize parameters.
⚠️ Disclaimer
This is not financial advice. Always perform forward testing and assess risk before deploying any strategy on live capital. The strategy is designed for educational and experimental use.
Trend Buy/Sell Fibonacci Range - KLTThe Trend Buy/Sell Fibonacci Range – KLT indicator identifies bullish and bearish trends based on where the closing price is located within a Fibonacci range calculated from the last N candles (default is 10). Instead of analyzing individual candles, this tool takes a broader view of price action using Fibonacci retracement levels across a dynamic multi-candle range.
How It Works:
Range Calculation
The indicator calculates the highest high and lowest low over the last N candles to define the active price range (default: 10 bars).
Fibonacci Levels
Within this range, Fibonacci levels (0.236, 0.382, 0.5, 0.618, 0.786) are dynamically computed. These levels act as internal thresholds to evaluate bullish or bearish pressure.
Trend Identification (via Close Position):
If the closing price is above the 0.618 level, it indicates strong buy pressure → the candle turns green and an upward triangle appears.
If the closing price is below the 0.382 level, it suggests strong sell pressure → the candle turns red and a downward triangle is displayed.
If the close lies between 0.382 and 0.618, the market is considered neutral, and the candle is gray.
Visual Elements:
Colored candles to immediately spot trend conditions.
Triangle signals (optional) for clear Buy/Sell markers.
Fibonacci level lines plotted on the chart for full context (can be toggled on/off).
Customization Options:
Lookback period (number of candles to calculate the range)
Fibonacci threshold levels (upper/lower)
Show/hide arrows and Fibonacci lines
Why Use This Indicator?
This tool is perfect for traders who want a simple visual method to assess trend strength based on price structure, not indicators derived from lagging moving averages. It offers:
Cleaner market structure analysis
Objective trend zones
Customizable sensitivity
Recommended Use:
Works well in conjunction with support/resistance zones, volume, or momentum indicators.
Applicable to any asset class or timeframe.

Step Channel Momentum Trend [ChartPrime]OVERVIEW
Step Channel Momentum Trend is a momentum-based price filtering system that adapts to market structure using pivot levels and ATR volatility. It builds a dynamic channel around a stepwise midline derived from swing highs and lows. The system colors price candles based on whether price remains inside this channel (low momentum) or breaks out (strong directional flow). This allows traders to clearly distinguish ranging conditions from trending ones and take action accordingly.
⯁ STRUCTURAL MIDLNE (STEP CHANNEL CORE)
The midline acts as the backbone of the trend system and is based on structure rather than smoothing.
Calculated as the average of the most recent confirmed Pivot High and Pivot Low.
The result is a step-like horizontal line that only updates when new pivot points are confirmed.
This design avoids lag and makes the line "snap" to recent structural shifts.
It reflects the equilibrium level between recent bullish and bearish control.
This unique step logic creates clear regime shifts and prevents noise from distorting trend interpretation.
⯁ DYNAMIC VOLATILITY BANDS (ATR FILTERING)
To detect momentum strength, the script constructs upper and lower bands using the ATR (Average True Range):
The distance from the midline is determined by ATR × multiplier (default: 200-period ATR × 0.6).
These bands adjust dynamically to volatility, expanding in high-ATR environments and contracting in calm markets.
The area between upper and lower bands represents a neutral or ranging market state.
Breakouts outside the bands are treated as significant momentum shifts.
This filtering approach ensures that only meaningful breakouts are visually emphasized — not every candle fluctuation.
⯁ MOMENTUM-BASED CANDLE COLORING
The system visually transforms price candles into momentum indicators:
When price (hl2) is above the upper band, candles are green → bullish momentum.
When price is below the lower band, candles are red → bearish momentum.
When price is between the bands, candles are orange → low or no momentum (range).
The candle body, wick, and border are all colored uniformly for visual clarity.
This gives traders instant feedback on when momentum is expanding or fading — ideal for breakout, pullback, or trend-following strategies.
⯁ PIVOT-BASED SWING ANCHORS
Each confirmed pivot is plotted as a label ⬥ directly on the chart:
They also serve as potential manual entry zones, SL/TP anchors, or confirmation points.
⯁ MOMENTUM STATE LABEL
To reinforce the current market mode, a live label is displayed at the most recent candle:
Displays either:
“ Momentum Up ” when price breaks above the upper band.
“ Momentum Down ” when price breaks below the lower band.
“ Range ” when price remains between the bands.
Label color matches the candle color for quick identification.
Automatically updates on each bar close.
This helps discretionary traders filter trades based on market phase.
USAGE
Use the green/red zones to enter with momentum and ride trending moves.
Use the orange zone to stay out or fade ranges.
The step midline can act as a breakout base, pullback anchor, or bias reference.
Combine with other indicators (e.g., order blocks, divergences, or volume) to build high-confluence systems.
CONCLUSION
Step Channel Momentum Trend gives traders a clean, adaptive framework for identifying trend direction, volatility-based breakouts, and ranging environments — all from structural logic and ATR responsiveness. Its stepwise midline provides clarity, while its dynamic color-coded candles make momentum shifts impossible to miss. Whether you’re scalping intraday momentum or managing swing entries, this tool helps you trade with the market’s rhythm — not against it.
Trend Blend
Trend blend is my new indicator. I use it to identify my bias when trading and filter out fake setups that are going in the wrong direction.
Trend blend utilises the 9 EMA (Red), 21 EMA (Black), and if you trade futures or Bitcoin, you can also use the VWAP (Blue).
There is also a table at the top right that displays the chart time frame bias
I prefer to use the 1-hour time frame for bias and execute the trades on 5-minute charts, mainly, and sometimes on the 1-minute for a smaller stoploss.
Here's an example of the trade I took during the London session on XAU/USD
1 hour bias was Bearish
Price broke out of the range
I waited for the London session to open, where I ended up taking a short on the 5-minute time frame as we broke out of the pre-London range
Entry was at the Fair Value Gap (5-minute bias was also Bearish as price traded into the FVG)
Stoploss was at the last high
Take Profit was the next major support level
Another set that I like to trade with the Trend blend is when price is trending bullish and price trades inside the 9 and 21 EMA, and there is a bullish candle closer above the 9 EMA with Stoploss below the low of the bullish candle and Take profit between 1-2 Risk to Reward
Same when there's a bearish trend, I wait for price to trade inside the 9 and 21 EMA, and I'll take sells when a bearish candle closes below the 9 EMA.
This setup works best in strong trends, or it can be used to enter a trade on a pullback or to scale into an existing trade.
