ABS Companion Oscillator — Trend / Exhaustion / New Trend (v1.1)
# ABS Companion Oscillator — Trend / Exhaustion / New Trend (v1.1)
## What it is (quick take)
**ABS CO** is a unified **–100…+100 trend oscillator** that fuses:
* **Regime**: EMA stack (fast/slow/long) + **HTF slope** (e.g., 60-minute)
* **Momentum**: **TSI** vs its signal
* **Stretch**: session-anchored **VWAP Z-score** for exhaustion and “fresh-trend” sanity checks
It paints the oscillator with **lime** in upstate, **red** in downstate, **gray** in neutral, and tags:
* **NEW↑ / NEW↓** when a **new trend** likely starts (zero-line cross with acceptable stretch)
* **EXH↑ / EXH↓** when an **existing trend looks exhausted** (large |Z| + momentum rollback)
> Use it as a **direction filter and context layer**. Works great in front of an entry engine and behind an exit tool.
---
## How to use it (operational workflow)
1. **Read the state**
* **Uptrend** when the oscillator is **≥ upThresh** (default +55) → prefer **long-side** plays.
* **Downtrend** when the oscillator is **≤ dnThresh** (default −55) → prefer **short-side** plays.
* **Neutral** between thresholds → be selective or flat; expect chop.
2. **Act on events**
* **NEW↑ / NEW↓**: zero-line cross with acceptable |Z| (not already overstretched). Treat as **trend start** cues.
* **EXH↑ / EXH↓**: trend state with **high |Z|** and TSI rollback versus its signal. Treat as **trend fatigue**; avoid fresh go-with entries and tighten risk.
3. **Practical pairing**
* Use **up/down state** (or above/below **neutralBand**) as your go/no-go filter for entries.
* Prioritize entries **with** NEW↑/NEW↓ and **without** nearby EXH tags.
* Keep holding while the oscillator stays in state and no EXH appears; consider scaling out on EXH or on your exit tool.
---
## Visual semantics & alerts
* **ABS CO line** (–100…+100): lime in upstate, red in downstate, gray in neutral.
* **Horizontal guides**: `Up` threshold, `Down` threshold, `Zero`, and optional **neutral band** lines.
* **Background heat** (optional): shaded when EXH conditions trigger (lime/red tint with intensity scaled by |Z|).
* **Tags**: `NEW↑`, `NEW↓`, `EXH↑`, `EXH↓`.
**Alerts (stable):**
* **ABS CO — New Uptrend** (NEW↑)
* **ABS CO — New Downtrend** (NEW↓)
* **ABS CO — Exhausted Up** (EXH↑)
* **ABS CO — Exhausted Down** (EXH↓)
Set alerts to **“Once per bar close”** for clean signals.
---
## Non-repainting behavior
* HTF queries use **lookahead\_off**.
* With **Strict NR = true**, the HTF slope is taken from the **prior completed** HTF bar; events evaluate on confirmed bars → **safer, fewer, cleaner**.
* NEW/EXH tags finalize at bar close. Disabling strictness yields earlier but noisier responses.
---
## Every input explained (and how it changes behavior)
### A) Trend & HTF structure
* **EMA Fast / Slow / Long (`emaFastLen`, `emaSlowLen`, `emaLongLen`)**
Control the baseline regime. Larger = smoother, fewer flips; smaller = snappier, more flips.
* **HTF EMA Len (`htfLen`)** & **HTF timeframe (`htfTF`)**
HTF slope filter. Longer len or higher TF = steadier bias (fewer state changes); shorter/ lower = more sensitive.
* **Strict NR (`strictNR`)**
`true` uses the **previous** HTF bar for slope and evaluates on confirmed bars → cleaner, slower.
### B) Momentum (TSI)
* **TSI Long / Short / Signal (`tsiLong`, `tsiShort`, `tsiSig`)**
Standard TSI. Larger values = smoother momentum, fewer EXH triggers; smaller = snappier, more EXH sensitivity.
### C) Stretch (VWAP Z-score)
* **VWAP Z-score length (`zLen`)**
Window for Z over session-anchored VWAP distance. Larger = smoother |Z|; smaller = more reactive stretch detection.
* **Exhaustion |Z| (`zHot`)**
Minimum |Z| to flag **EXH**. Raise to demand **bigger** stretch (fewer EXH); lower to catch milder excess.
* **Max |Z| for NEW (`zNewMax`)**
NEW requires |Z| **≤ zNewMax** (avoid “new trend” when already stretched). Lower = stricter; higher = more NEW tags.
### D) States & thresholds
* **Uptrend threshold (`upThresh`)** / **Downtrend threshold (`dnThresh`)**
Where the oscillator flips into trend states. Widen (e.g., +60/−60) to reduce false states; narrow to get earlier signals.
* **Neutral band (`neutralBand`)**
Visual buffer around zero for “meh” momentum. Larger band = fewer go/no-go flips near zero.
### E) Visuals & tags
* **Show New / Show Exhausted (`showNew`, `showExh`)**
Toggle the tag labels.
* **Shade exhaustion heat (`plotHeat`)**
On = color background when EXH fires. Helpful for scanning.
### F) Smoothing
* **Osc smoothing (`smoothLen`)**
EMA over the raw composite. Higher = steadier line (fewer whip flips); lower = faster turns.
---
## Tuning recipes
* **Trend-day bias (follow moves longer)**
* Raise **`upThresh`** to \~60 and **`dnThresh`** to \~−60
* Keep **`zNewMax`** low (1.0–1.2) to avoid “fresh trend” when stretched
* **`smoothLen`** 3–5 to reduce noise
* **Range-day bias (fade edges)**
* Keep thresholds closer (e.g., +50/−50) for quicker state changes
* Lower **`zHot`** slightly (1.6–1.7) to catch earlier exhaustion
* Consider slightly shorter TSI (e.g., 21/9/5) for faster EXH response
* **Scalping LTF (1–3m)**
* TSI 21/9/5, **`smoothLen`** 1–2
* Thresholds +/-50; **`zNewMax`** 1.0–1.2; **`zHot`** 1.6–1.8
* StrictNR **off** if you want earlier calls (accept more noise)
* **Swing / HTF (1h–D)**
* TSI 35/21/9, **`smoothLen`** 4–7
* Thresholds +/-60\~65; **`zNewMax`** 1.2; **`zHot`** 1.8–2.0
* StrictNR **on** for cleaner bias
---
## Playbooks (how to actually trade it)
* **Go/No-Go Filter**
* Only take **long entries** when the oscillator is **above the neutral band** (preferably ≥ `upThresh`).
* Only take **short entries** when **below** the neutral band (preferably ≤ `dnThresh`).
* Avoid fresh go-with entries if an **EXH** tag appears; let the next setup re-arm.
* **Trend Genesis**
* Treat **NEW↑ / NEW↓** as “green light” for **first pullback** entries in the new direction (ideally within acceptable |Z|).
* **Trend Maturity**
* When in a position and **EXH** prints **against** you, tighten stops, take partials, or lean on your exit tool to protect gains.
---
## Suggested starting points
* **Day trading (5–15m):**
* TSI 25/13/7, `smoothLen=3`, thresholds **+55 / −55**, `zNewMax = 1.2`, `zHot = 1.8`, **StrictNR = true**
* **Scalping (1–3m):**
* TSI 21/9/5, `smoothLen=1–2`, thresholds **+50 / −50**, `zNewMax = 1.1–1.2`, `zHot = 1.6–1.8`, **StrictNR = false** (optional)
* **Swing (1h–D):**
* TSI 35/21/9, `smoothLen=4–6`, thresholds **+60 / −60**, `zNewMax = 1.2`, `zHot = 1.9–2.0`, **StrictNR = true**
---
## Notes & best practices
* **Session anchoring**: Z-score is session-anchored (resets by trading date). If you trade outside standard sessions, verify your data session.
* **Instrument specificity**: Tune **`zHot`**, **`zNewMax`**, and thresholds per symbol and timeframe.
* **Bar-close discipline**: Evaluate tags at **bar close** to avoid intrabar flip-flop.
* This is a **context/confirmation tool**, not a broker or strategy. Combine with your entry/exit rules and position sizing.
---
**Tip:** Start with the suggested day-trading profile. Use this oscillator as your **gate** (only trade with it), let your entry engine time executions, and rely on your exit tool for standardized profit-taking.

Adaptive Causal Wavelet Trend FilterThe Adaptive Causal Wavelet Trend Filter is a technical indicator implementing causal approximations of wavelet transform properties for better trend detection with adaptive volatility response.
The Adaptive Causal Wavelet Trend Filter (ACWTF) applies mathematical principles derived from wavelet analysis to financial time series, providing robust trend identification with minimal lag. Unlike conventional moving averages, it preserves significant price movements while filtering market noise through signal processing that i describe below.
I was inspired to build this indicator after reading " Wavelet-Based Trend Identification in Financial Time Series " by In, F., & Kim, S. 2013 and reading about Mexican Hat wavelet filters.
The ACWTF maintains optimal performance across varying market regimes without requiring parameter adjustments by adapting filter characteristics to current volatility conditions.
Mathematical Foundation
Inspired by the Mexican Hat wavelet (Ricker wavelet), this indicator implements causal approximations of wavelet filters optimized for real-time financial analysis. The multi-resolution approach identifies features at different scales and the adaptive component dynamically adjusts filtering characteristics based on local volatility measurements.
Key mathematical properties include:
Non-linear frequency response adaptation
Edge-preserving signal extraction
Scale-space analysis through dual filter implementation
Volatility-dependent coefficient adjustment, which I love
Filter Methods
Adaptive: Implements a volatility-weighted combination of multiple filter types to optimize the time-frequency resolution trade-off
Hull: Provides a causal approximation of wavelet edge detection properties with forward-projection characteristics
VWMA: Incorporates volume information into the filtering process for enhanced signal detection
EMA Cascade: Creates a multi-pole filter structure that approximates certain wavelet scaling properties
Suggestion: try all as they will provide slightly different signals. Try also different time-frames.
Practical Applications
Trend Direction Identification: Clear visual trend direction with reduced noise and lag
Regime Change Detection: Early identification of significant trend reversals
Market Condition Analysis: Integrated volatility metrics provide context for current market behavior
Multi-timeframe Confirmation: Alignment between primary and secondary filters offers additional confirmation
Entry/Exit Timing: Filter crossovers and trend changes provide potential trading signals
The comprehensive information panel provides:
Current filter method and trend state
Trend alignment between timeframes
Real-time volatility assessment
Price position relative to filter
Overall trading bias based on multiple factors
Implementation Notes
Log returns option provides improved statistical properties for financial time series
Primary and secondary filter lengths can be adjusted to optimize for specific instruments and timeframes
The indicator performs particularly well during trend transitions and regime changes
The indicator reduces the need for using additional indicators to check trend reversion
EMD Trend [InvestorUnknown]EMD Trend is a dynamic trend-following indicator that utilizes Exponential Moving Deviation (EMD) to build adaptive channels around a selected moving average. Designed for traders who value responsive trend signals with built-in volatility sensitivity, this tool highlights directional bias, market regime shifts, and potential breakout opportunities.
How It Works
Instead of using standard deviation, EMD Trend employs the exponential moving average of the absolute deviation from a moving average—producing smoother, faster-reacting upper and lower bounds:
Bullish (Risk-ON Long): Price crosses above the upper EMD band
Bearish (Risk-ON Short): Price crosses below the lower EMD band
Neutral: Price stays within the channel, indicating potential mean reversion or low momentum
Trend direction is defined by price interaction with these bands, and visual cues (color-coded bars and fills) help quickly identify market conditions.
Features
7 Moving Average Types: SMA, EMA, HMA, DEMA, TEMA, RMA, FRAMA
Custom Price Source: Choose close, hl2, ohlc4, or others
EMD Multiplier: Controls the width of the deviation envelope
Bar Coloring: Candles change color based on current trend
Intra-bar Signal Option: Enables faster updates (with optional repainting)
Speculative Zones: Fills highlight aggressive momentum moves beyond EMD bounds

RSI Candle Trend🎯 Purpose:
This TradingView script is designed to visualize trend strength using RSI values as candle data, instead of traditional price candles. It transforms RSI data into custom candles using various smoothing and filtering methods (like Heikin-Ashi, Linear Regression, Rational Quadratic Filter, or McGinley Dynamic). It allows traders to:
📌Track RSI-based momentum using visual candle representation
📌Apply advanced smoothing/filters to the RSI to reduce noise
📌Highlight candle trend strength using dynamic coloring
📌Identify overbought/oversold zones using reference lines (RSI 80 and 20)
🧩 How It Works:
It calculates RSI values for open, high, low, close prices.
These RSI values are then optionally smoothed with user-selected moving averages (EMA, SMA, etc.).
Depending on the selected mode (Normal, Heikin-Ashi, Linear, Rational Quadratic), the RSI values are transformed into synthetic candles.
Candles are colored cyan (uptrend) or red (downtrend) based on RSI movement.
⚙️ Key Inputs:
Method: Type of moving average to smooth the RSI (e.g. EMA, SMA, VWMA, etc.)
Length: Length for RSI and smoothing filters
Candle: Type of candle transformation (Normal, Heikin-Ashi, Linear, Rational Quadratic)

Trend Continuation RatioThis TradingView indicator calculates the likelihood of consecutive bullish or bearish days over a specified period, giving insights into day-to-day continuation patterns within the market.
How It Works
Period Length Input:
The user sets the period length (e.g., 20 days) to analyze.
After each period, the counts reset, allowing fresh data for each new interval.
Bullish and Bearish Day Definitions:
A day is considered bullish if the closing price is higher than the opening price.
A day is considered bearish if the closing price is lower than the opening price.
Count Tracking:
Within each specified period, the indicator tracks:
Total Bullish Days: The number of days where the close is greater than the open.
Total Bearish Days: The number of days where the close is less than the open.
Bullish to Bullish Continuations: Counts each instance where a bullish day is followed by another bullish day.
Bearish to Bearish Continuations: Counts each instance where a bearish day is followed by another bearish day.
Calculating Continuation Ratios:
The Bullish Continuation Ratio is calculated as the percentage of bullish days that were followed by another bullish day:
Bullish Continuation Ratio = (Bullish to Bullish Continuations /Total Bullish Days)×100
Bullish Continuation Ratio=( Total Bullish Days/Bullish to Bullish Continuations )×100
The Bearish Continuation Ratio is the percentage of bearish days followed by another bearish day:
Bearish Continuation Ratio = (Bearish to Bearish Continuations/Total Bearish Days)×100
Bearish Continuation Ratio=( Total Bearish Days/Bearish to Bearish Continuations )×100
Display on Chart:
The indicator displays a table in the top-right corner of the chart with:
Bullish Continuation Ratio (%): Percentage of bullish days that led to another bullish day within the period.
Bearish Continuation Ratio (%): Percentage of bearish days that led to another bearish day within the period.
Usage Insights
High Ratios: If the bullish or bearish continuation ratio is high, it suggests a trend where bullish/bearish days often lead to similar days, indicating possible momentum.
Low Ratios: Low continuation ratios indicate frequent reversals, which could suggest a range-bound or volatile market.
This indicator is helpful for assessing short-term trend continuation tendencies, allowing traders to gauge whether they are more likely to see follow-through on bullish or bearish days within a chosen timeframe.
Target Trend [BigBeluga]The Target Trend indicator is a trend-following tool designed to assist traders in capturing directional moves while managing entry, stop loss, and profit targets visually on the chart. Using adaptive SMA bands as the core trend detection method, this indicator dynamically identifies shifts in trend direction and provides structured exit points through customizable target levels.
SP500:
🔵 IDEA
The Target Trend indicator’s concept is to simplify trade management by providing automated visual cues for entries, stops, and targets directly on the chart. When a trend change is detected, the indicator prints an up or down triangle to signal entry direction, plots three customizable target levels for potential exits, and calculates a stop-loss level below or above the entry point. The indicator continuously adapts as price moves, making it easier for traders to follow and manage trades in real time.
When price crosses a target level, the label changes to a check mark, confirming that the target has been achieved. Similarly, if the stop-loss level is hit, the label changes to an "X," and the line becomes dashed, indicating that the stop loss has been activated. This feature provides traders with a clear visual trail of whether their targets or stop loss have been hit, allowing for easier trade tracking and exit strategy management.
🔵 KEY FEATURES & USAGE
SMA Bands for Trend Detection: The indicator uses adaptive SMA bands to identify the trend direction. When price crosses above or below these bands, a new trend is detected, triggering entry signals. The entry point is marked on the chart with a triangle symbol, which updates with each new trend change.
Automated Targets and Stop Loss Management: Upon a new trend signal, the indicator automatically plots three price targets and a stop loss level. These levels provide traders with structured exit points for potential gains and a clear risk limit. The stop loss is placed below or above the entry point, depending on the trend direction, to manage downside risk effectively.
Visual Target and Stop Loss Validation: As price hits each target, the label beside the level updates to a check mark, indicating that the target has been reached. Similarly, if the stop loss is activated, the stop loss label changes to an "X," and the line becomes dashed. This feature visually confirms whether targets or stop losses are hit, simplifying trade management.
The indicator also marks the entry price at each trend change with a label on the chart, allowing traders to quickly see their initial entry point relative to current price and target levels.
🔵 CUSTOMIZATION
Trend Length: Set the lookback period for the trend-detection SMA bands to adjust the sensitivity to trend changes.
Targets Setting: Customize the number and spacing of the targets to fit your trading style and market conditions.
Visual Styles: Adjust the appearance of labels, lines, and symbols on the chart for a clearer view and personalized layout.
🔵 CONCLUSION
The Target Trend indicator offers a streamlined approach to trend trading by integrating entry, target, and stop loss management into a single visual tool. With automatic tracking of target levels and stop loss hits, it helps traders stay focused on the current trend while keeping track of risk and reward with minimal effort.
Swing Trend AnalysisIntroducing the Swing Trend Analyzer: A Powerful Tool for Swing and Positional Trading
The Swing Trend Analyzer is a cutting-edge indicator designed to enhance your swing and positional trading by providing precise entry points based on volatility contraction patterns and other key technical signals. This versatile tool is packed with features that cater to traders of all timeframes, offering flexibility, clarity, and actionable insights.
Key Features:
1. Adaptive Moving Averages:
The Swing Trend Analyzer offers multiple moving averages tailored to the timeframe you are trading on. On the daily chart, you can select up to four different moving average lengths, while all other timeframes provide three moving averages. This flexibility allows you to fine-tune your analysis according to your trading strategy. Disabling a moving average is as simple as setting its value to zero, making it easy to customize the indicator to your needs.
2. Dynamic Moving Average Colors Based on Relative Strength:
This feature allows you to compare the performance of the current ticker against a major index or any symbol of your choice. The moving average will change color based on whether the ticker is outperforming or underperforming the selected index over the chosen period. For example, on a daily chart, if the 21-day moving average turns blue, it indicates that the ticker has outperformed the selected index over the last 21 days. This visual cue helps you quickly identify relative strength, a key factor in successful swing trading.
3. Visual Identification of Price Contractions:
The Swing Trend Analyzer changes the color of price bars to white (on a dark theme) or black (on a light theme) when a contraction in price is detected. Price contractions are highlighted when either of the following conditions is met: a) the current bar is an inside bar, or b) the price range of the current bar is less than the 14-period Average Daily Range (ADR). This feature makes it easier to spot price contractions across all timeframes, which is crucial for timing entries in swing trading.
4. Overhead Supply Detection with Automated Resistance Lines:
The indicator intelligently detects the presence of overhead supply and draws a single resistance line to avoid clutter on the chart. As price breaches the resistance line, the old line is automatically deleted, and a new resistance line is drawn at the appropriate level. This helps you focus on the most relevant resistance levels, reducing noise and improving decision-making.
5. Buyable Gap Up Marker: The indicator highlights bars in blue when a candle opens with a gap that remains unfilled. These bars are potential Buyable Gap Up (BGU) candidates, signaling opportunities for long-side entries.
6. Comprehensive Swing Trading Information Table:
The indicator includes a detailed table that provides essential data for swing trading:
a. Sector and Industry Information: Understand the sector and industry of the ticker to identify stocks within strong sectors.
b. Key Moving Averages Distances (10MA, 21MA, 50MA, 200MA): Quickly assess how far the current price is from key moving averages. The color coding indicates whether the price is near or far from these averages, offering vital visual cues.
c. Price Range Analysis: Compare the current bar's price range with the previous bar's range to spot contraction patterns.
d. ADR (20, 10, 5): Displays the Average Daily Range over the last 20, 10, and 5 periods, crucial for identifying contraction patterns. On the weekly chart, the ADR continues to provide daily chart information.
e. 52-Week High/Low Data: Shows how close the stock is to its 52-week high or low, with color coding to highlight proximity, aiding in the identification of potential breakout or breakdown candidates.
f. 3-Month Price Gain: See the price gain over the last three months, which helps identify stocks with recent momentum.

Hindsight TrendNon-realtime but highly accurate trend analyzer with only one fundamental parameter ( period aka "minimum trend length")
Basically Hindsight Trend is pivot points on steroids (handles many cases much better). Plus it shows the trend line.
Period
I usually like periods of 10, 20 or 30.
The indicator's delay is identical to the chosen period.
You can actually try a low period like 4 or 5 to get something resembling a realtime indicator.
Uptrends are based on candle lows, downtrends are based on candle highs. So it is possible to have an uptrend and a downtrend at the same time.
Triangles
At trend start, a triangle is drawn. (Trendline isn't always there if the trend didn't last that long.)
Triangle size shows how long the high or low that started the trend remained unbroken. E.g. with period 20: Small triangle = 20+ candles, medium triangle = 40+ candles, big triangle = 80+ candles. So a big triangle marks an important reversal point.
How Hindsight Trend works
Whenever a candle completes, its high and low are saved as potentially "notable" points. A high or low is the more notable the longer it stays unbroken (= not touched again by price).
Now we simply take the notable highs and lows (as in, staying unbroken at least for the user-selected period)... and connect them together - if they are close enough to each other (less than "period" candles away). And decorate the first point in each trend with a triangle.
We only know whether a point is notable after "period" more candles have printed, so that's where the indicator's delay comes from.
Finally we divide the period by 2 and look at highs and lows which are unbroken for that shorter time. While they are not fully "notable" as defined above, we'll call them "semi-notable". Those points are only considered at the end of a trend, and help us extend the trend line a bit further.
Candle Close TrendFirst of all, a huge credit to Wade for all the help with this indicator. An absolute Legend!
The idea behind this indicator is to identify a potential trend with simply the close of candles.
If a candle closes above the previous candle High, the trend would be "bullish" and remain bullish until there is a candle that closes below the previous candle Low. The opposite is true for a "bearish" trend.
As always, this is NOT intended to be used by itself, but with other TA.
For cleanest results, I find it best to use with the candle borders turned off in the chart settings but that is just my preference.
Works on all timeframes.
[blackcat] L2 Trend Mirror Navigator TypeIIn this unpredictable world of trading, the L2 Trend Mirror Navigator TypeI is like a magical mirror, reflecting the market's pulse and potential turning points. This indicator is not just a game of numbers; it's a visual feast that reveals the market's deep secrets through five colorful lines (mb1, mb2, mb3, mb4, mb5). Imagine these lines as five lively little snakes, dancing on the chart, intertwining and separating at times, with each crossing potentially signaling a shift in market sentiment.
The calculation process of this indicator is like cooking a complex dish, requiring precise ingredients and火候 (heat control). First, we take the average of the high, low, and close prices, which serves as our "basic soup base." Then, we add the secret ingredient of Exponential Moving Average (EMA) to smooth out the price data, like adding a layer of delicate cream to the soup base. Next, through a series of complex calculations, we obtain five lines, each like a different dish with its own flavor, but together they form a bountiful trading feast.
In practical application, this indicator acts as your trading assistant, telling you the market's dynamics through lines of different colors. When the red line (mb2) is above the green line (mb3), it's like saying, "Hey, the market is rising!" Conversely, it warns you, "Be careful, the market might be falling." You can adjust the sensitivity of this indicator based on the length of the EMA period, just like adjusting the spiciness of a dish to suit your taste.
Now, let's explore how to combine this indicator with others to enhance the reliability of trading signals. Imagine you're observing a stock or currency pair, looking for the best time to buy or sell. You can combine the L2 Trend Mirror Navigator TypeI with Moving Averages (MA) or Average Directional Index (ADX), just like adding some herbs and spices to a dish to enrich the flavor. When the RSI indicator shows the market may be oversold, it's like telling you, "Now might be a good time to buy." And price behavior analysis serves as a reminder, "Watch out, the market might be forming a certain chart pattern."
Finally, don't forget the key factor of volume. It's like the salt in a dish; without it, everything becomes bland. Analyzing the signals of the L2 Trend Mirror Navigator across different time frames is like admiring a painting under different lights, each angle revealing a different beauty.

Donchian Trend SignalsThe Donchian Trend Signals is an indicator developed to help traders identify the current trend direction and potential liquidity grabs.
The usage of the indicator is very simple, on the chart you'll see a modified version of the classic and popular Donchian channel, calculated using the closing prices, that changes the color of the average middle line to indicate the direction of the current trend. The indicator also colors the candlestick.
Using the option "Complex Mode" will give your indicator additional data by changing the calculation method. These changes make the lines become the average between different lengths of the same Donchian channel formula.
Additionally, the indicator plots on the chart some buy or sell signals, displayed as diamonds above or below the candles. The signals are calculated to find potential liquidity grabs using the wicks, the true range of the candles, and the volume compared to his average value.

Trend Correlation Oscillator [SS]Hello,
Publishing this simple indicator.
What is it?
The Trend Correlation Oscillator takes the concept of my autocorrelation oscillator but applies it simply to time instead of autocorrelation.
It performs a correlation assessment to time. The theory behind it is the stronger the correlation, the more "exhausted" the trend and the more likely the trend will reverse. It is kind of building off of random walk theory in which the market should be random and efficient.
Does it work?
If you follow me on my indicator side, you will know that my indicators are all based on my own research and findings and stuff that I personally find that works. All of this comes from years of losing money trying to use conventional systems and finally developing my own stuff that I find works well. This is such an invention. It does work extremely well but its best applied for day traders. If you want to use this as a swing trader, play around with the lookback length. I don't have general recommendations to swing traders wanting to use this because this isn't an indicator I personally would use for swing trading (I would use the autocorrelation oscillator for that).
How to use it:
The default setting is to a 14 candle lookback. This works the best. It also should really be used on the 5 minute chart and not the 1 minute chart, as from my experience this works much better.
When a trend is approaching "exhaustion" to the upside, the indicator will turn red to let you know we are approaching a trend exhaustion. Once the exhaustion is at its peak and beginning to reverse, the indicator will place a cross symbol on where your entry should be. See the image below for an example:
It also works well if you combine it with my PTCR Correlation Indicator:
Closing thoughts
That is basically the indicator. Its one of my more simple ones, but many times simple is better and most effective!
Hopefully you find it helpful.
As always let me know your questions, comments and feedback/recommendations for improvements below.
Please know I do read and make note of all recommendations for indicators and improvements, however as it is just me managing them, it takes time for implementation and review :-).
Safe trades!
