Trend Strength Momentum Indicator (TSMI)Introducing the Trend Strength Momentum Indicator (TSMI)
With over two decades of experience, I've found that no single indicator can consistently predict market movements. The key lies in combining multiple indicators to capture different market dimensions—trend, momentum, and volume. With this in mind, I present the Trend Strength Momentum Indicator (TSMI), a comprehensive tool designed to spot emerging uptrends and downtrends in cryptocurrency and other asset markets.
1. Overview of TSMI
The TSMI amalgamates three critical market aspects:
Trend Direction and Strength: Utilizing Moving Averages (MA) and the Average Directional Index (ADX).
Momentum: Incorporating the Moving Average Convergence Divergence (MACD) and the Relative Strength Index (RSI).
Volume Confirmation: Employing the On-Balance Volume (OBV) indicator.
By combining these elements, TSMI aims to provide a robust signal that not only indicates the direction of the trend but also confirms its strength and sustainability through momentum and volume analysis.
2. Components and Calculations
A. Trend Component
Exponential Moving Averages (EMA):
50-day EMA: Captures the short to medium-term trend.
200-day EMA: Reflects the long-term trend.
Average Directional Index (ADX):
Measures the strength of the trend regardless of its direction.
A value above 25 indicates a strong trend, while below 20 suggests a weak or non-trending market.
B. Momentum Component
Moving Average Convergence Divergence (MACD):
Calculated by subtracting the 26-day EMA from the 12-day EMA.
The MACD line crossing above the signal line (9-day EMA of MACD) indicates bullish momentum; crossing below suggests bearish momentum.
Relative Strength Index (RSI):
Oscillates between 0 and 100.
Readings above 70 indicate overbought conditions; below 30 suggest oversold conditions.
C. Volume Component
On-Balance Volume (OBV):
Cumulatively adds volume on up days and subtracts volume on down days.
A rising OBV alongside rising prices confirms an uptrend; divergence may signal a reversal.
3. TSMI Calculation Steps
Step 1: Trend Analysis
EMA Crossover:
Identify if the 50-day EMA crosses above the 200-day EMA (Golden Cross), indicating a potential uptrend.
Conversely, if the 50-day EMA crosses below the 200-day EMA (Death Cross), it may signal a downtrend.
ADX Confirmation:
Confirm the strength of the trend. An ADX value above 25 supports the EMA crossover signal.
Step 2: Momentum Assessment
MACD Evaluation:
Look for MACD crossing above its signal line for bullish momentum or below for bearish momentum.
RSI Check:
Ensure RSI is not in overbought (>70) or oversold (<30) territory to avoid potential reversals against the trend.
Step 3: Volume Verification
OBV Direction:
Confirm that OBV is moving in the same direction as the price trend.
Rising OBV with rising prices strengthens the bullish signal; falling OBV with falling prices strengthens the bearish signal.
Step 4: Composite Signal Generation
Bullish Signal:
50-day EMA crosses above 200-day EMA (Golden Cross).
ADX above 25, indicating a strong trend.
MACD crosses above its signal line.
RSI is between 30 and 70, avoiding overbought conditions.
OBV is rising.
Bearish Signal:
50-day EMA crosses below 200-day EMA (Death Cross).
ADX above 25.
MACD crosses below its signal line.
RSI is between 30 and 70, avoiding oversold conditions.
OBV is falling.
4. How to Use the TSMI
A. Entry Points
Buying into an Uptrend:
Wait for the bullish signal criteria to align.
Enter the position after the 50-day EMA crosses above the 200-day EMA, supported by positive momentum (MACD and RSI) and volume (OBV).
Selling or Shorting into a Downtrend:
Look for the bearish signal criteria.
Initiate the position after the 50-day EMA crosses below the 200-day EMA, with confirming momentum and volume indicators.
B. Exit Strategies
Protecting Profits:
Monitor RSI for overbought or oversold conditions, which may indicate potential reversals.
Watch for MACD divergences or crossovers against your position.
Use trailing stops based on the ATR (Average True Range) to allow profits to run while protecting against sharp reversals.
C. Risk Management
Position Sizing:
Use the ADX value to adjust position sizes. A stronger trend (higher ADX) may justify a larger position, whereas a weaker trend suggests caution.
Avoiding False Signals:
Be cautious during sideways markets where EMAs may whipsaw.
Confirm signals with multiple indicators before acting.
5. Examples
Example 1: Spotting an Emerging Uptrend in Bitcoin
Date: Let's assume on March 1st.
Observations:
EMA Crossover: The 50-day EMA crosses above the 200-day EMA.
ADX: Reading is 28, indicating a strong trend.
MACD: Crosses above the signal line and moves into positive territory.
RSI: Reading is 55, comfortably away from overbought levels.
OBV: Shows a rising trend, confirming increasing buying pressure.
Action:
Enter a long position in Bitcoin.
Set a stop-loss below recent swing lows.
Outcome:
Over the next few weeks, Bitcoin's price continues to rise, validating the TSMI signal.
Example 2: Identifying a Downtrend in Ethereum
Date: Let's assume on July 15th.
Observations:
EMA Crossover: The 50-day EMA crosses below the 200-day EMA.
ADX: Reading is 30, confirming a strong trend.
MACD: Crosses below the signal line into negative territory.
RSI: Reading is 45, not yet oversold.
OBV: Declining, indicating selling pressure.
Action:
Initiate a short position or exit long positions in Ethereum.
Place a stop-loss above recent resistance levels.
Outcome:
Ethereum's price declines over the following weeks, confirming the downtrend.
6. When to Use the TSMI
Trending Markets: TSMI is most effective in markets exhibiting clear trends, whether bullish or bearish.
Avoiding Sideways Markets: In range-bound markets, EMAs and momentum indicators may provide false signals. ADX readings below 20 suggest it's best to stay on the sidelines.
Volatile Assets: Particularly useful in cryptocurrency markets, which are known for their volatility and extended trends.
7. Limitations and Considerations
Lagging Indicators: Moving averages and ADX are lagging by nature. Rapid reversals may not be immediately captured.
False Signals: No indicator is foolproof. Always confirm signals with multiple components of TSMI.
Market Conditions: External factors like news events can significantly impact prices. Consider combining TSMI with fundamental analysis.
8. Enhancing TSMI
Customization: Adjust EMA periods (e.g., 20-day and 100-day) based on the asset's volatility and your trading timeframe.
Additional Indicators: Incorporate Bollinger Bands to gauge volatility or Fibonacci retracement levels to identify potential support and resistance.
Conclusion
The Trend Strength Momentum Indicator (TSMI) offers a holistic approach to spotting emerging trends by combining trend direction, momentum, and volume. By synthesizing the strengths of various traditional indicators while mitigating their individual limitations, TSMI provides traders with a powerful tool to navigate the complex landscape of cryptocurrency and other asset markets.
Key Benefits of TSMI:
Comprehensive Analysis: Integrates multiple market dimensions for well-rounded insights.
Early Trend Identification: Aims to spot trends early for optimal entry points.
Risk Management: Helps in making informed decisions, thereby reducing exposure to false signals.
By applying TSMI diligently and complementing it with sound risk management practices, traders can enhance their ability to capitalize on market trends and improve their overall trading performance.

Trend Finder {Darkoexe}This indicator displays the end and start of trends using an ATR factor.
The ATR with trend factor is used to determine the minimum length for a trend to be considered a trend.
The ATR against trend factor is used to determine the minimum length price needs to move against a trend for it to break the trend.
The ATR factors are multiplied with the ATR to determine these lengths.
The labels indicate the starts and ends of trends;
The green label indicates the start of an up trend.
The red label indicates the start of a down trend.
The black/gray label indicates the start of a trend and the end of another trend at the same location.
The purple/pink label indicates the end of a trend.
All the label colors can be changed.
IMPORTANT NOTE: This is a repainting indicator, it should only be used to back test and analyze previous trends. Do not use this indicator for live trading.
Trend and Trendline DetectorTrend and Trendline Detector
Overview
The Trend and Trendline Detector indicator provides both major and minor trend analysis using Simple Moving Averages (SMA) and automatically plots dynamic support and resistance trendlines based on pivot highs and lows.
Key Features
Major Trend Detection: Uses a configurable SMA to determine primary market direction.
Minor Trend Visualization: Optional minor SMA with color-coded line segments to mark smaller trend fluctuations.
Dynamic Pivot Trendlines: Automatically detects pivot highs/lows and draws major (solid) and minor (dashed) trendlines, with user-controlled extension modes.
Customizable Inputs: User can adjust SMA lengths, pivot look back/look forward periods, line extend mode, and toggle features on/off.
Trend Detection with AlertsPurpose of the Script
The script identifies trends on a chart (uptrend, downtrend, or sideways trend) and provides both visual cues and alerts when a trend changes. It uses two methods for trend detection:
Moving Averages (MA): It compares a short-term moving average (fast) with a long-term moving average (slow).
An uptrend occurs when the short-term MA is above the long-term MA.
A downtrend occurs when the short-term MA is below the long-term MA.
Price Action:
Higher highs (HH) indicate bullish momentum.
Lower lows (LL) indicate bearish momentum.
When these methods align, the script determines the trend and notifies the user of any trend changes.
Key Features
Moving Average Calculation:
A short-term moving average and a long-term moving average are calculated to determine the overall trend direction.
Trend Determination:
An uptrend is detected when the short-term MA is above the long-term MA and higher highs are present.
A downtrend is detected when the short-term MA is below the long-term MA and lower lows are present.
Otherwise, the trend is classified as sideways.
Alerts for Trend Changes:
Alerts are triggered when the trend changes from one state to another (e.g., sideways to uptrend).
Custom messages indicate the type of trend detected.
Background Colors:
The script changes the chart’s background color based on the current trend:
Green for uptrends.
Red for downtrends.
Gray for sideways trends.
Visualization of Moving Averages:
The moving averages are plotted on the chart for visual reference.
How It Works
Inputs for Flexibility:
The user can configure the lengths of the short-term and long-term moving averages.
A lookback period is used to determine higher highs or lower lows for additional confirmation.
Trend Logic:
The script checks the relationship between the moving averages to identify general trends.
It also evaluates price action to confirm trend strength (e.g., whether a higher high or lower low occurred).
Alert System:
When the detected trend changes (e.g., from sideways to uptrend), an alert is triggered. This ensures the user is notified of important market movements.
Dynamic Background Coloring:
The background color of the chart changes to reflect the current trend, making it easy to interpret the trend visually.
Use Cases
Trend Identification: Helps traders quickly identify market trends for decision-making.
Alerts for Trend Changes: Notifies traders when a new trend begins, ensuring they don’t miss key opportunities.
Visual Assistance: Makes it easier to interpret trends through color-coded backgrounds and moving average overlays.
Customization Options
Adjust Moving Average Lengths: Users can modify the short-term and long-term moving averages to suit their trading strategies.
Change Lookback Period: The sensitivity of higher highs and lower lows can be adjusted.
Personalized Alerts: Alerts can be customized for different trading scenarios.
Summary
This script provides an intuitive way to detect and visualize market trends while offering real-time alerts for trend changes. It’s an excellent tool for traders who want to stay informed about market conditions and make data-driven decisions.
Trend Candles Full ColorThe coloring over the candle sticks isn't showing up on the picture for some reason but when you click on the indicator the color coding will appear on the chart.
Trend Candles Full Color Indicator Explanation The "Trend Candles Full Color" indicator, designed for TradingView, visually enhances candlestick charts by coloring candles based on their position relative to a simple moving average (SMA). Here's how it works and how it can benefit traders: How It Works Input : Adjust the SMA period (default is 20) to define the trend length.
Logic : The indicator compares the closing price of each candle to the SMA: Green Candle : Close is above the SMA (indicating an uptrend).
Red Candle : Close is below the SMA (indicating a downtrend).
Gray Candle : Close equals the SMA (neutral/no clear trend).
Output : Candles (body, wick, and border) are colored green, red, or gray based on the trend, overlaid directly on your price chart.
Benefits and Use Cases Trend-Following Strategies Benefit: Clearly identifies bullish (green) or bearish (red) trends, helping traders ride momentum.
Example: A swing trader using a 20-period SMA can enter long positions when candles turn green (price above SMA) and exit or short when candles turn red, confirming trend reversals.
Reversal Trading Benefit: Gray candles signal indecision near the SMA, often a precursor to reversals.
Example: A day trader might watch for gray candles after a prolonged uptrend (green candles) to anticipate a potential bearish reversal, combining with other indicators like RSI for confirmation.
Scalping Benefit: Quick visual cues for short-term trend changes on lower timeframes.
Example: A scalper on a 5-minute chart can use green candles to confirm quick bullish moves and red candles to avoid counter-trend trades, enhancing decision speed.
Position Sizing or Risk Management Benefit: Color changes highlight trend strength, aiding in adjusting trade size or stops.
Example: A trader might increase position size during strong green candle sequences (sustained uptrend) and tighten stops when gray candles appear, signaling potential trend weakness.
Tips for Use Adjust the MA Length to suit your trading style (e.g., shorter for scalping, longer for swing trading).
Combine with other indicators (e.g., support/resistance, MACD) for better accuracy.
Test on different timeframes to match your strategy.
Recommended MA Length for 1-Minute Charts Short-Term/Scalping (1-5 minute trades):10-period SMA : Very sensitive, ideal for capturing quick price movements in fast markets. May produce more noise (false signals).
20-period SMA : A balanced choice for 1-minute charts, smoothing minor fluctuations while reacting to short-term trends. A great starting point for scalpers.
Intraday Trend Trading (10-30 minute holds):50-period SMA : Captures broader intraday trends, reducing noise but lagging slightly. Suitable for larger moves within a session.
This indicator simplifies trend identification, making it a versatile tool for traders of all styles, from beginners to advanced users!
Recommended MA Length for Swing Trading / Higher Timeframes Swing Trading (holding trades for days to weeks):50-period SMA : A popular choice for swing traders on higher timeframes (e.g., 1-hour or 4-hour charts). It smooths out short-term fluctuations while identifying medium-term trends. Ideal for capturing multi-day swings.
100-period SMA : Slightly longer, this MA is great for confirming stronger, more sustained trends. It’s useful on 4-hour or daily charts for swing traders aiming to ride larger price moves.
Longer-Term Trend Trading (holding for weeks to months):200-period SMA : A classic choice for higher timeframes like daily or weekly charts. It highlights major market trends and is widely used by swing and position traders to filter out noise and focus on long-term direction.
150-period SMA : A middle ground between the 100 and 200 SMA, suitable for daily charts when you want a balance between responsiveness and trend reliability.
Trend-Filter [John Ehlers]Indicator Description — Trend-Filter
This indicator uses the SuperSmoother filter, created by John Ehlers, to smooth price data and identify trends with greater accuracy and less noise. It counts the number of consecutive bars in uptrend or downtrend to measure the strength of the movement and changes the line and background colors for easy visualization.
How to use this indicator:
SuperSmoother filter: smooths the price to reveal a clearer trend direction by filtering out fast oscillations and market noise.
Bar counting: monitors sequences of bars maintaining an up or down trend to identify consistent moves.
Dynamic colors:
Green line indicates a strong uptrend.
Red line indicates a strong downtrend.
Yellow line shows a neutral or undefined trend.
Optional colored background visually reinforces trend strength with transparency so it does not interfere with price reading.
Visual signals: arrows appear on the chart to mark the start of a strong trend, helping entry or exit decisions.
Adjustable parameters:
SuperSmoother Length: controls the filter smoothing (higher = smoother, less noise).
Trend Threshold: minimum number of consecutive bars to consider a strong trend.
Smooth colors: enable or disable line color smoothing.
Show signals: toggle trend start arrows on/off.
Show dynamic background: toggle the colored background indicating trend strength.
Recommendations:
Use alongside other technical analysis tools and risk management.
Can be applied on any timeframe, but interpretation is more reliable on charts with reasonable data volume.
Ideal for traders seeking to identify consistent trends and avoid market noise.
Trendline with bands .
Introduction
A trendline indicator that plots bands around a set trendline is a technical analysis tool used in financial markets to identify potential support and resistance levels. This indicator typically consists of a central trendline, which represents the general direction of the market (uptrend, downtrend, or sideways), and two bands plotted above and below this trendline. These bands are usually set at a fixed percentage or standard deviation from the trendline, creating a channel within which the price is expected to move
The bands help traders visualize the volatility of the asset and identify overbought or oversold conditions. When the price touches or moves outside the upper band, it may indicate that the asset is overbought and could be due for a correction. Conversely, when the price touches or moves outside the lower band, it may suggest that the asset is oversold and could be poised for a rebound.
Institutions might use similar but more sophisticated methods to buy and sell in a trend.
Settings
To set up your trendline indicator, follow these steps:
Begin by selecting two points on the chart. These points will serve as your coordinates, representing both time and price.
Choose your price source, which will be used to calculate the trendline.
Finally, configure the z-scores for your bands to determine their distance from the central trendline.
Trends and Peaks [AgJ]Trends and Peaks
The Trends and Peaks indicator is designed to identify and visualize trends and key peaks in the price series. It provides three main functions:
Trends
The indicator detects the formation of trends in the price series and marks uptrend periods in green on the chart. This helps identify where the market is trending in a particular direction.
Peaks
The indicator uses a combination of custom and standard indicators to identify significant peaks in the price action. It classifies these peaks into two categories:
Parabolic Stages : Where the price exhibits accelerated, parabolic growth or decline.
Localized Stages : Where smaller, local peaks occur within a broader trend.
Slowing Trend
In parabolic stages, local peaks can serve as a signal of a slowing trend . As the price begins to plateau, the indicator helps identify areas where the trend might be losing momentum.
NOTE : The default settings are calibrated for BTC. If you're using the indicator on other assets, you may need to adjust the parameters for optimal performance.
Configuration notes
Peaks Settings
Cutoff Limits : Adjusts the width of the area where peaks are detected, allowing you to narrow or widen the peak detection range.
Peak Limits : Offers finer control over the peak detection formula, enabling more precise calibration of what is considered a "peak."
Trends Settings
Algo Parameters : Adjust the algorithm settings to fine-tune trend detection based on your preferences.

Trendmaster - Crypto Miner Confidence MetricWhat it is:
The Crypto Miner Confidence Metric analyses a handful of highly utilized Crypto networks to gain insight into the potential sentiment amongst those securing them and more specifically Crypto miners.
What it does:
It takes into account the overall trend in the increase or decrease of current computational power securing the networks, otherwise known as the hashrate - as well as the overall network inflows/outflows and holdings of those miners.
How to use it:
Using this data we can conclude whether their stance is currently Bullish or Bearish, with a value of 100 indicating an extremely positive future outlook from miners and a value of 0 representing a severe lack of confidence. Changes or pivots in the direction of miner confidence can indicate a shift in their Bullish or Bearish stance.
Trendmaster - Collated Funding RatesCollated Funding Rates is a Crypto Specific Indicator that pulls Exchange Funding Rate Data from several exchanges for both Bitcoin and Ethereum.
By combining both the Funding Data for Bitcoin and Ethereum across several exchanges, a Trader can see the Collated Funding Rates from several Crypto Exchanges.
What are Funding Rates?
Funding rates are periodic payments either to traders that are long or short based on the difference between perpetual contract markets and spot prices.
Therefore, depending on open positions, traders will either pay or receive funding. Crypto funding rates prevent lasting divergence in the price of both markets
These Funding Rates also incentivize Liquidity Providers to take certain positions whether Long or Short based on the Funding Rate.
What are Liquidity Providers?
A Liquidity Provider, also known as a Market Maker, is someone who provides their crypto assets to a platform to help with the decentralization of trading.
In return, they are rewarded with fees generated by trades on that platform, which can be thought of as a form of passive income.
H ow to use Collated Funding Rates:
When the Funding Rate is positive, the price of the perpetual contract is usually higher than the market price.
Thus, traders who are long pay for short positions. Conversely, a negative Funding Rate means that short positions pay for longs.
As the funding rate increases from negative to positive Traders and Liquidity Providers are incentivized to take short positions.
This can be seen on the indicator as it moves from down to up and changes from red to green.
As the funding rate decreases from positive to negative Traders and Liquidity Providers are incentivized to take long positions.
This can be seen on the indicator as it moves from up to down and changes from green to red.
Funding Rates are used by Exchanges to manipulate the price.
Because of this fact, Collated Funding Rates can show trend changes based on when a specific up or down move in Price is incentivized by Exchange Funding Rates.
Supertrend - Ladder ATRThis is a supertrend with slight twisted concept which can be very benefecial in strong trending markets to reduce stop loss distance and exit slightly quicker.
⬜ Concept
▶ When the instrument is trending up, regular ATR shows high values if there are big green candles. This affect the stoploss distance in regular supertrend which leads to wide stops or delayed lagging. When you are in long trade, what matters for stoploss is how much a negative candle can move within bar. Hence, using ATR derived only based on red candles is more beneficial for trailing stops on long signals. Same applies to short trades where using ATR derived from only green candles is more efficient than overall ATR.
▶ ATR will be minimal when the volatility is less and ATR will increase with volatility. That means, once you are in trade, the trailing of stoploss also will vary based on ATR (or volatility). With regular ATR and supertrend, chances of stop loss distance widening is high with increased volatility even though stoploss levels will not move down. This again poses the risk of higher drawdown during trade closure and also keeps in the trade during ranging market. To avoid this, the second trick we are using here is only to reduce the atr stoploss difference when in trade. That is, when in long trade and negative candles ATR is increasing, we will not consider that. We will consider the new ATR only if it is lesser than previous bar ATR.
Effect of these changes on the trending market is quite visual. Lets take example of USDTRY
Settings are quite simple and does not vary much from regular supertrend settings.
Cumulative Pivot HighLowThis indicator counts number of higher highs/lows and number of lower highs/lows and calculates trend based on that.
Indicator line shows (sum of higher highs/lows - sum of lower highs/lows) derived from last loopback periods. Indicator is green if last two consecutive highs/lows formed are on higher side. Red if on lower side. (Consecutive numbers can be controlled by parameter direction_threshold )
combineHighsAndLows if unselected shows not cumulative version but last consecutive highs and lows marked in red or green according to the trend.
TRENDSPOTTERHi Guys,
So TrendSpotter uses multiple indicators to catch trend moves as they happen. All you have to do it follow the entries when 2 green or red arrows appear, you enter the move.
Basically it has a few rules.
1.I trade the 1 min time-frame
2.The background turns Red ( Short ) or Green ( Long ) when the stock is going that direction.
3. Wait until the Psar is under for Long and over for Short.
4. Wait until the second Green for Long or Red for Short Arrow to appear. You are getting in on the end of the first one.
Here's my profile on Tradingview.com with all the explanations of how to use it. It can be used for FOREX and CRYPTO also.

Check out my videos to see it's not that complicated.
If you have any questions please contact me.
Thanks,

Trendlines - JD This script draws trendlines from the pivot points in the price chart.
The input for the function that draws the trendlines is any calculation or function (eg. pivot points),
that most of the time and occasionally produces a 'non n/a' value.
The trendline function then connects the non n/a values and axtends the connections of those points in a trendline.
There is an option to draw the lines from the wicks or from the 'real bodies' of the candles.
The trendlines can either extend infinitely or only run for an adjustable amount of bars.

Trend CompassAbout This Script
Trend Compass Pro is a multi-layered market analysis tool designed to unify three essential components of price behavior: momentum, trend strength, and directional structure.
It is built to provide traders with a clear and readable visualization of market conditions without relying on external scripts or unnecessary visual clutter.
How It Works
1. Momentum Layer — RSI
The script uses a fast-period Relative Strength Index (RSI) to measure short-term momentum sensitivity.
Its line is dynamically colored based on candle direction (bullish, bearish, neutral), which makes momentum shifts easy to interpret at a glance.
2. Strength Layer — ADX
The next layer applies a standard ADX calculation to measure the strength of the prevailing trend, independent of direction.
A threshold level marks when the trend becomes strong or meaningful.
The ADX line is also color-synchronized with candle direction to highlight moments when trend strength aligns with price momentum.
A visual fill between the RSI and ADX lines appears when both layers agree — green for bullish strength, red for bearish strength.
3. Direction Layer — Trend Compass (Original Logic)
This is the core component of the script and is fully original.
It works by comparing a fast EMA with a slow EMA across three separate internal timeframes, representing:
Short-term trend
Medium-term trend
Long-term trend
Each timeframe outputs a simple directional state based on EMA spread, displayed as three horizontal color-coded bands (levels 25, 50, 75).
These colors show when trend direction is aligned or mixed across different timescales.
Why These Elements Are Combined
The script is not a random combination of indicators.
Each layer solves a distinct analytical need:
RSI → short-term market mood
ADX → strength behind the move
Trend Compass → structural direction across multiple trend horizons
Together, they provide a consolidated and readable picture of how direction, strength, and momentum interact.
How to Use It
When all three layers show bullish agreement → strong and confirmed uptrend
When all three align bearish → strong downtrend
When mixed → transitional or weak environment
When Trend Compass is neutral → market lacks directional structure
This makes the script suitable for trend trading, breakout confirmation, and momentum-aligned entries.
Publishing Notes
A clean chart was used when publishing this script.
No additional indicators or unrelated drawings were included.
All visible elements originate directly from the script and serve the purpose of understanding its function.
Trend Compass combines momentum (RSI), trend strength (ADX), and multi-timeframe direction (EMA-based Trend Compass) into a single clean panel.
The script highlights periods when momentum and strength agree and shows trend direction across three internal time horizons.
It offers a clear way to confirm trend continuation, strength, and reversals without clutter.
Unlock a complete trend-reading system with Trend Compass — a smart fusion of RSI momentum, ADX strength, and a unique triple-layer trend engine.
Identify strong trends instantly, filter noise, and trade only when momentum, strength, and direction align.

Trend detection for stocksThis Pine Script indicator combines exponential moving averages (EMA) with the Average Directional Index (ADX) to identify clear upward and downward trends. The chart colors the background according to the trend and optionally displays buy and sell signals as well as alerts.
Functionality in detail:
The Fast EMA (Standard 21) reacts quickly to price changes.
The Slow EMA (Standard 55) smooths the trend more.
If the Fast EMA is above the Slow EMA and the ADX is above the defined threshold, the background turns green – indicating a clear upward trend.
Conversely, a red background signals a dominant downward trend.
Buy and sell arrows appear at the EMA crossover as soon as the ADX confirms that a trend is intact.
Multi-Timeframe TrendTrend Analyze for All Timeframes and All Pairs – Indicator Description
This indicator is built to give traders a clear and comprehensive understanding of market direction across all timeframes and currency pairs. It starts with a full trend analysis that automatically scans multiple timeframes—from lower timeframes like M1 and M5 to higher ones such as H1, H4, D1, and beyond—providing a complete overview of whether the market is currently in an uptrend, downtrend, or sideways phase.
Unlike basic trend tools, this indicator intelligently detects the dominant trend using a combination of technical structures such as swing highs and lows and support & resistance zones (SNR). It gives traders a quick but in-depth snapshot of market strength and direction, helping to reduce confusion and increase confidence in decision-making.
One of the key features is its all-pairs compatibility. Whether you're trading major pairs, minor pairs, or exotic currencies, the indicator can analyze them all. There's no need to open charts one by one — this tool helps you save time by providing a consolidated trend view in a compact dashboard.
Key Features:
Multi-Timeframe Trend Scanner – Instantly analyze trends across different timeframes in one glance.
Dashboard Display – A compact panel on your chart showing trend status for each selected timeframe.
All Pair Compatibility – Works seamlessly with all forex pairs, including majors, minors, and exotics.
Adaptable to All Trading Styles – Suitable for scalping, intraday, swing, and even long-term trading.
This indicator is perfect for traders who use multi-timeframe analysis (MTFA) and want to spot high-probability entries based on confirmed trends. Whether you're a beginner looking for clarity or an experienced trader wanting to streamline your analysis, this tool is designed to help you stay one step ahead in the market
Trend Breakout Description:
This Pine Script indicator identifies pivot high and pivot low points based on user-defined left and right candle legs, detecting breakouts to signal potential trend changes. It plots horizontal lines at pivot highs (lime) and pivot lows (red), marking breakout signals with labels ("Br") when the price crosses above a pivot high or below a pivot low. The indicator also changes the background color to reflect the trend (green for uptrend, red for downtrend) with adjustable transparency. The indicator primarily focuses on recognizing specific pivot patterns to define trends and generate trading signals.
How It Works
• Pivot Detection: Identifies pivot highs and lows using configurable left (Left side Pivot Candle) and right (Right side Pivot Candle) periods.
• Pivot Highs (PH): A pivot high is identified when a candle's high is greater than a specified number of preceding candles (left leg) and succeeding candles (right leg).
• Pivot Lows (PL): Similarly, a pivot low is identified when a candle's low is less than a specified number of preceding and succeeding candles.
The script then tracks the last three pivot highs and pivot lows.
Trend Detection and Breakouts
1. High Line (Resistance): When a middle pivot high (out of the three tracked) is higher than both the previous and the next pivot high, a lime green line is drawn from that pivot high. This line acts as a dynamic resistance level.
2. Low Line (Support): Conversely, when a middle pivot low is lower than both the previous and the next pivot low, a red line is drawn from that pivot low. This line acts as a dynamic support level.
________________________________________
Trading Signals : The indicator generates signals based on price crossing these dynamically drawn lines .
• Long Signal (Uptrend):
o A "Long" signal is triggered when the close price crosses above the current high line (resistance), and the indicator is not already in an uptrend.
o When a long signal occurs, the background turns green, and the high line becomes dotted and thinner. A "Br" (Breakout) label appears below the candle.
• Short Signal (Downtrend):
o A "Short" signal is triggered when the close price crosses below the current low line (support), and the indicator is not already in a downtrend.
o When a short signal occurs, the background turns red, and the low line becomes dotted and thinner. A "Br" (Breakout) label appears above the candle.
________________________________________
Customizable Settings
The indicator provides three user-adjustable inputs:
• Right Side Pivot Candle (fpivotLeg): This setting (default 10) determines the number of candles to the right that must have lower highs/higher lows for a pivot to be confirmed.
• Left Side Pivot Candle (bpivotLeg): This setting (default 15) determines the number of candles to the left that must have lower highs/higher lows for a pivot to be confirmed.
• Adjust Color Visualization (Colortrnp): This setting (default 85) controls the transparency of the background color changes, allowing you to adjust how prominently the green (uptrend) and red (downtrend) backgrounds are displayed.

How to Use It
This indicator can be used by traders to:
• Identify potential reversals: The formation of new pivot highs and lows can signal shifts in market direction.
• Spot breakout opportunities: Crossing above the high line or below the low line can indicate the start of a new trend or the continuation of an existing one.
• Confirm trend strength: The presence and extension of the high and low lines can provide visual cues about the prevailing trend.
• Ideal for swing traders or trend-following strategies.
• Use the breakout labels ("Br") and background color to confirm trend direction.
• Adjust pivot leg inputs to fine-tune sensitivity for different timeframes or assets.
• Customize transparency to suit chart readability.
Example:
On a breakout above a pivot high, a green "Br" label appears, the background turns green, and the pivot line becomes dotted. This signals a potential uptrend, helping traders identify entry points or trend confirmations.
Disclaimer: No indicator guarantees profits. Always use this indicator in conjunction with other analysis methods and proper risk management.
