Trend
Leading Indicator [TH]The leading indicator is helpful to identify early entries and exits (especially near support and resistance).
Green = trend up
Red = trend down
How it works:
The leading indicator calculates the difference between price and an exponential moving average.
Adding the difference creates a negative lag relative to the original function.
Negative lag is what makes this a leading indicator.
The amount of lead is exactly equal to the amount of lag of the moving average.
The leading indicator has lagging signals at turning points.
The leading indicator will always have noise gain, which gets eliminated by applying a moving average.
Modifying the alpha values will modify the amount of noise and change the sensitivity of trend change.
Example 1: Changing alpha1 from 0.25 to 0.15 lowers noise, more clearly identifies trend, and adds delay to this indicator.
Example 2: Changing alpha1 from 0.25 to 0.35 increases noise, less clearly identifies trend, BUT more quickly indicates a trend change.
Calculations:
Where:
alpha1 = 0.25
alpha2 = 0.33
Leading = 2 * (arithmetical mean of current High and Low price) + (alpha1 - 2) * (arithmetical mean of previous High and Low price) + (1 - alpha1) * (previous 'Leading' value)
Total Leading = alpha2 * leading + (1 - alpha2) * (previous 'Total Leading' value)
EMA = 0.5 * (arithmetical mean of previous High and Low price) + 0.5 * (previous 'EMA' value)
Uptrend when 'Total Leading' value is greator than the EMA
Downtrend when 'Total Leading' value is lesser than the EMA

Trend-Quality IndicatorBINANCE:BTCUSDT
Open source version of the Trend-Quality Indicator as described by David Sepiashvili in [ Stocks & Commodities V. 22:4 (14-20) ]
Q-Indicator and B-Indicator are available both separately or together
█ OVERVIEW
The Trend-Quality indicator is a trend detection and estimation tool that is based on a two-step filtering technique. It measures cumulative price changes over term-oriented semicycles and relates them to “noise”. The approach reveals congestion and trending periods of the price movement and focuses on the most important trends, evaluating their strength in the process. The indicator is presented in a centered oscillator (Q-Indicator) and banded oscillator format (B-Indicator).
Semicycles are determined by using a short term and a longer term EMAs. The starting points for the cycles are determined by the moving averages crossover.
Cumulative price change (CPC) indicator measures the amount that the price has changed from a fixed starting point within a given semicycle. The CPC indicator is calculated as a cumulative sum of differences between the current and previous prices over the period from the fixed starting point.
The trend within the given semicycle can be found by calculating the moving average of the cumulative price change.
The noise can be defined as the average deviation of the cumulative price change from the trend. To determine linear noise, we calculate the absolute value of the difference between CPC and trend, and then smooth it over the n-point period. The root mean square noise, similar to the conventional standard deviation, can be derived by summing the squares of the difference between CPC and trend over each of the preceding n-point periods, dividing the sum by n, and calculating the square root of the result.
█ Q-INDICATOR
The Q-Indicator is a centered oscillator that fluctuates around a zero line with no upper or lower limits, is calculated by dividing trend by noise.
The Q-Indicator is intended to measure trend activity. The further the Q is from 0, the less the risk of trading with a trend, and the more reliable the trading opportunity. Values exceeding +2 or -2 can be qualified as promising
Values:
in the -1 to +1 range (GRAY) indicate that the trend is buried beneath noise. It is preferable to stay out of this zone
in the +1 to +2 or -1 to -2 range (YELLOW) indicate weak trending
in the +2 to +5 range (BLUE) or -2 to -5 range (ORANGE) indicate moderate trending
above +5 range (GREEN) or below -5 (RED) indicate strong trending
Readings exceeding strong trending levels can indicate overbought or oversold conditions and signal that price action should be monitored closely.
█ B-INDICATOR
The B-Indicator is a banded oscillator that fluctuates between 0 and 100, is calculated by dividing the absolute value of trend by noise added to absolute value of trend, and scaling the result appropriately.
The B-indicator doesn’t show the direction of price movement, but only the existence of the trend and its strength. It requires additional tools for reversal manifestations.
The indicator’s interpretation is simple. The central line suggests that the trend and noise are in equilibrium (trend is equal to noise).
Values:
below 50 (GRAY) indicate ranging market
in the 50 to 65 range (YELLOW) indicate weak trending
in the 65 to 80 range (BLUE) indicate moderate trending
above 80 (GREEN) indicate strong trending
The 65 level can be thought of as the demarcation line of trending and ranging markets and can help determine which type of technical analysis indicator (lagging or leading) is better suited to current market conditions. Readings exceeding strong trending levels can indicate overbought or oversold conditions.
[UPRIGHT] Awesome DMI+Hello Traders,
Today I'm releasing a spin on an 'oldie but goodie'; the Directional Movement Index (DMI).
DMI is a combination of 3 different indicators developed by the famous J. Welles Wilder. DMI has 3 different plots: the ADX, +DI, and -DI. The first is the ADX (Average Directional Index), which Wilder created in 1978 to show the strength of a trend by comparing the current price with the previous price range. The other two are the +DI (positive directional indicator) and the -DI show up as two separate lines, +DI is the difference between the highest price of the current day and the highest price of the day before, and -DI does the same calculation with the current and previous day's lows.
How does it work?
When the ADX line is above 25 (as a general rule, some traders use a different threshold, +/- 5), the trend is strong. When the +DI line is above the -DI line, the asset (stock) is moving in an uptrend, and the opposite means the asset is in a downtrend.
How is this different?
Uses multiple calculations to produce signals for an indicator than normally doesn't have any.
Multiple ADX's, +DI's, and -DI's for better accuracy and clearer direction changes.
Ability to use 2 different background highlight signals and several buy/sell signals.
Fully customizable (as always), ability to turn on or off any signals, change any of the colors to suit your needs.
Added pre-filled Alerts.
The ribbons created by the fill make it easier to see the change in direction of each plot.
The chart should look like:
Cheers,
Mike

Ehlers Leading Indicator [CC] RibbonQuoted from Cheatcountry : “The Leading Indicator was created by John Ehlers (Cybernetic Analysis For Stocks And Futures pg 235) and as the name implies, this is a leading indicator that provides super early signals. Feel free to change the alpha values to adjust to your needs. Buy when the indicator line is green and sell when it is red.”

Power Trend Pro - Spot Powerful UptrendsWhen a Power Trend is active, there is a stronger than usual uptrend underway. The concept of a Power Trend was defined by Investor's Business Daily, more specifically, the Market School course designed to mimic the trading style of IBD's Founder, William O'Neil.
The specifics of a Power Trend were defined by Mike Webster, Justin Nielsen and Charles Harris, while working with William O'Neil at IBD. The uptrends of the Nasdaq Composite were studied in great detail, looking for characteristics that were similar across significant uptrends. The end result was a set of rules that define when a Power Trend starts and ends.
Knowing that there is a Power Trend in play can be helpful to gauge how aggressive to be with your trades.
The price action in a major index, such as the Nasdaq Composite (IXIC), is the source for determining a Power Trend's status. Using an index is based on the definition of a Power Trend from Market School. With this indicator, in addition to indexes, it will allow an ETF (more specifically, a "fund" as defined by TradingView) to be used as the source. The reason for the latter is that various ETFs such as ARKK, which are focused on "disruptive technology," can be helpful to track trends for growth traders.
What Starts a Power Trend?
■ Low is above the 21-day EMA for at least 10 days.
■ 21-day EMA is above the 50-day SMA for at least five days.
■ 50-day SMA is in an uptrend.
■ Close up for the day.
What Ends a Power Trend?
■ 21-day EMA crosses under 50-day SMA.
■ Close 10% below recent high and below the 50-day SMA.
Show Power Trend Status
With this indicator there are four unique ways to highlight Power Trends on a chart, each is shown in the chart that follows:
If you prefer to keep your charts clean, the stoplight option may be your best bet. This signal displays green, yellow or gray depending on the status of the Power Trend. For example, when the light is green, a Power Trend is on. Yellow signals the Power Trend is still in place, however, the price is below the 50-day SMA. Gray equates to the Power Trend being off.
Additional Examples of Power Trends
The example below shows a Power Trend on the ARKK ETF.
One way for a Power Trend to end is when the 21-day EMA crosses under the 50-day SMA.
There are also "circuit-breaker" rules that result in the a Power Trend ending. For example, when the price breaks below the 50-day SMA and closes 10% or more from a recent high.
Alerts on Start and End of a Power Trend
In addition to the visual signals mentioned above, you can also set Alerts to be notified when a Power Trend starts or ends. This is one of the more unique and helpful features of this indicator.
For example, you can create an Alert on the Nasdaq Composite that will send a message whenever the requirements for a Power Trend are met. Given TradingView alerts are stored server-side, you can be on notified even if you are not currently running TradingView.
To set an Alert:
■ Make sure you are viewing an index or fund
■ Right-click on chart and select 'Add alert'
■ From the Condition select 'Power Trend'
■ Choose either 'Power Trend Started' or 'Power Trend Ended'
■ Select 'Once Per Bar Close'
Features
■ Four options to highlight where Power Trends starts and ends:
• Custom colored bars.
• Stoplight with configurable location.
• Custom symbol and color above bar.
• Custom symbol and color below bar.
■ Show recent high price, configurable font size and color.
■ Custom alerts on the start and/or end of a Power Trend.
ADX DI EMA Clouds
EMA clouds colored by DI and ADX indicator:
9 EMA and 21 EMA Cloud turns green in a bull trend and red when in a bull trend...if the trend is half bulll and half bear..the clouds turn white.
I also coded if the momentum in increasing (yellow) or if the momentum is decreasing (blue) or if the momentum is flat (white).
The Clouds are colored based off the Di (+/-)
9 EMA is colored based of ADX momentum strength
ADX:
ADX is used to quantify trend strength. ADX calculations are based on a moving average of price range expansion over a given period of time. The default setting is 14 bars, although other time periods can be used.1
ADX can be used on any trading vehicle such as stocks, mutual funds, exchange-traded funds and futures .
DI (+/-):
The directional movement index (DMI) is an indicator developed by J. Welles Wilder in 1978 that identifies in which direction the price of an asset is moving. The indicator does this by comparing prior highs and lows and drawing two lines: a positive directional movement line ( +DI ) and a negative directional movement line ( -DI ). An optional third line, called the average directional index ( ADX ), can also be used to gauge the strength of the uptrend or downtrend.
This indicator has the length changed from 14 to 9 so you can have more updated price calculation
I also add the 4 levels I use for day trading; the 10, 20, 30, 40-50 are the levels I like to see the Di to break over.
A lot of traders use different levels, but these I have and found most useful. You can set alerts when any Di crosses over the 40 for true trend breakout!
Linear Regression Channel - Auto Volume BasedBased on oryginal TV indicator BUT with a little twist. ;)
I really like the regression channel - but the problem is that the length needs to be always manually adjusted.
In this script I try to solve this issue.
This is modified version on TV indicator - Linear Regression Channel.
The main difference is that now you don't get static length - it is automatically adjuested to the recent price action (determined by highest volume in last 300 bars).
TMFlow‴ | Trend Momentum Flow‴Code Version
@4
What does it do?
Converts MACD indicator into a powerfull long and short term trend momentum indicator. This is a 3in1 indicator, you have a (1) MACD or a (2) Long or (3) Short Termo Trend TMFlow indicator.
The chart presents a top TMFlow, this is the Long Term Trend TMFlow. The chart presents a bottom TMFlow, this is the Short Term Trend TMFlow, which provides you with pullback or long term trend reversal.
How does it work?
You can choose to use the TMFlow as a long term indicator that provides you with a long trend monitoring. If you choose to use the TMFlow as a short term momentum indicador, it will provide you with movement advance followed with a pullback movement, but this pullback could end up being a trend reversal in case it crosses the zero line which, in this case, will revert also the long term momentum trend (Long Term TMFlow mentioned above).
What's my filling?
definitively this is an indicator that MUST BE part of any trading system.
Indicator features:
- original MACD indicator;
- Long Term Trend TMFlow top/bottom wave reversal after a movement advance suggests long term trend reversal (signaled by bar color change);
- Short Term Trend TMFlow top/bottom wave reversal after a movement advance suggests pullback (signaled by bar color change) that could end up being a trend reversal in case it crosses under/above the zero line;
- TMFlow Moving Average Line that suggests 1st buy/sell sign once crossed by bar uptrend/downtrend, which is signaled by a blue/red bar;
- light green and red background bar provides with the histogram bar crossing above/under the TMFlow Moving Average Line, respectively;
- bar gradiant color to indicate acceleration or slowdown bars development;

MTF EMA TrendThe indicator plots directional arrows on top of the chart to visualize the market's price trend. The plots are based on candle closing below all three multitimeframe EMAs, downtrend, when the EMAs are also in order (1 below 2 and 2 below 3). Opposite situation is uptrend.
It also marks a breakdown when the price closes under the third (supposedly always the slowest) EMA outside of aforementioned downtrend situation. Opposite is true for breakup to be marked.
Please always make sure, that the three EMAs are in order of EMA 1 being the fastest and 3rd the slowest. Default settings are used on the 5 minute timeframe.
Indicator can be used to quickly check the overall trend of the market as told by three MTF EMAs without needing to clutter the chart with the actual EMA plots. This is useful, for example, if you mainly base your scalping trades on other types of indicators, but you want a quick peek of the market direction or indecision.
GMC Trend FilterAvoid Fake Signals, and identify the trend.
How it works ?
- it calculates main trend direction by using the length that is user-defined. so you can change it as you wish
- then it calculates trend direction for each 9 lower lengths. if you set the length = 20 then the lengths are 19, 18,...11
- and it checks if the trend directions that came from lower lengths is same or not with main trend direction.
- it changes the trend color of the ribbon.
Candilator RSI [AstrideUnicorn]OVERVIEW
The name Candilator comes from blending the words "candlestick" and "oscillator". And as the name suggests, this indicator is a good old RSI plotted as a candlestick chart. To produce a candlestick chart, Candilator RSI calculates four RSI's based on the open, high, low, and close time series. It also has a candlestick patterns detection feature.
HOW TO USE
You can use Candilator RSI as a normal RSI to analyze momentum, detect overbought and oversold markets, and find the oscillator's divergences with the price. You can also get creative and apply all sorts of technical analysis to the RSI candlestick chart, including candlestick patterns analysis.
Candilator RSI can automatically scan the price for some candlestick patterns in the overbought and oversold zones. This feature can help detect price reversals early.
SETTINGS
The indicator settings are divided into two groups: Main Settings and Pattern Detection. In the Main Settings, you can find standard RSI settings. In the Pattern Detection part, you can turn on and off the automatic search for a particular candlestick pattern.
[UPRIGHT Trading] Awesome MACD+ (cc)Hello Traders,
I'd like to introduce you all to the Awesome MACD+ indicator.
As most of you know, the Moving Average Convergence Divergence, MACD, indicator is a one of the most popular indicator among traders. The MACD is a trend-momentum indicator that measures the relationship between moving averages and uses a signal line to show crossovers between the MACD line. The signal line is generally used as a trigger for buy/sell signals with a cross of the MACD line or confirmation when used with other strategies. More advanced traders will look for divergences; divergences can, for example, indicate a weakness in the current trend.
How the Awesome MACD+ is different:
This MACD uses several complex equations and filters to improve accuracy.
Multiple extremely accurate Buy/Sell signals not found on a traditional MACD indicator.
Ability to use 2 different background highlight signals and several different buy/sell signals.
Fully customizable (as always), ability to turn on or off any signals, change any of the colors to suit your needs.
***I've used Bitcoin in the chart above just to show that it is still extremely accurate using alt-coins as well.
On AAPL
Advanced algo trend filtering
Easy to read signals for every level of trader.
..Can work for the minimalist.
..Those that want every signal.
..Those that like a balance of signals.
Whatever your style or skill level, the Awesome MACD+ can be customized to fit your needs.
The above chart should look like this:
Good luck Traders.

Naked Bar Upward ReversalAMEX:SPY
The Naked Bar Upward Reversal is a three bar candlestick pattern with an inside candle as a entry point. This pattern is bullish since it has a candle closing red from the previous candle; the most bearish pattern possible. The following inside candle is a reversal of its previous candle with an open above the previous candle's close. Look to buy the next open above the inside candle's close.
This is a bullish reversal pattern and should be used in this context. Successful entries are found in corrections along an upward trend, or buying into a dip. Performance drops when the pattern appears at tops. To improve profitability, use a cluster of evidence to enhance the performance of this pattern. The intended time frame is within the daily and weekly.
[UPRIGHT Trading] Top & Bottom Finder [Premium]Hello Traders,
Today I'm releasing an updated version of my previous Top & Bottom Finder (M.Right_Top & Bottom Finder 1.0).
The timing of this release couldn't be more perfect with everyone trying to 'find the bottom'. And the increased volatility that we've been seeing as of late.
Essentially, my indicator uses volatility and standard deviations among other things to assist you in finding the top or bottom of trends. You may also notice that it uses a lot of different strength indicators to provide an additional layer of complexity and confirmation.
Not just an RSI, but an RSI ema, smoothed OBV RSI's, and other volume RSI's. This is a truly unique and powerful tool for any Trader - whether you've just started or you've been trading for 20 years, I'm confident you will find value in the UPRIGHT Trading Top & Bottom Finder.
How to use it:
When it detects the trend Bottoming or Topping the histogram will change color. Bottom - Green/blue, Top - Red, (different shades of colors for different types of detection).
I've spent several hours tweaking the calculations and filters to enhance the accuracy, so this will be a noticeable upgrade from my original Top & Bottom Finder.
The length of the histogram bar can be an indication in itself, especially when it lines up close to one of the plotted lines and has noticeable direction change following this.
I've added a lot of text and pictures to help display it's capabilities, features, and customizability.
As always, it's fully customizable with alerts. Can toggle any thing on or off, and change the colors to suit your style.
3 Unique RSI's, different colors on the histogram will show different levels of detection. Some are more accurate in some timeframes than others. Bright Green and Bright Red are the most different from the rest.
I've jam-packed this indicator with Buy/Sell and Confirmation Signals and even background highlights (with colors that can mesh together). Feel free to find what works best for you.
RSI color indications and background highlights aid in confirmation. Also, as mentioned previously, sometimes a gray bar will land on a Fib and it will be a bottom signal.
The above chart should look like this
Good luck Traders,
Cheers,
Mike

[DisDev] Market Maker | Technical Time AnalysisThis indicator has three main components: Days of Week Separators , User-Customized Reminder Notes , and Projected Lines . Each component is explained and demonstrated how it could be used as a trading tool.
The basis of this indicator is to analyze past price movements and then project them as a reminder for traders that previously, at that particular time, there was a price increase/decrease.
1) Vertical lines and labels separate days of the week.
a. The vertical lines allow you to quickly see what day of the week the price movement occurred. For example, if a notable price move happens on Monday, you can use the “Reminder Notes” input to enter a note directly on the chart, as explained below.
b. You can select different colors and styles for the lines or background.
2) Vertical lines can be customized to be displayed in the past and future.
a. This allows you to select a specific time when price has increased/decreased, see how often this has occurred, then notate it as a reminder in the future.
3) User-customized reminder notes for future projected lines.
a. This allows you to input notes to be displayed with the future projected lines.
b. Example: You notice that at 06:45, there had previously been significant price action. Your notes can be updated directly on the chart to remind you of them just before 06:45 on the following days.
Below is the indicator in full use.
You can adjust each line's style, width, color, and reminder notes.
Levels Of Greed
The Levels Of Greed indicator is based on the same idea as the Levels Of Fear one and was suggested by several traders in the comment section. It helps analyze price advances to find the best levels for closing a long position in an asset after a quick surge or longer up-trend. In finance, volatility is a term that describes the degree of variation of an asset price over time. It is usually denoted by the letter σ (sigma) and estimated as the standard deviation of the asset price or price returns. The Levels Of Greed indicator helps measure the current price advance in the standard deviation units. It plots seven levels at distances of 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, and 7 standard deviations (sigmas) above the base price (the recent lowest price or lower bound of the established range). In what follows, we will refer to these levels as levels of greed.
HOW TO USE
When the price in its surge reaches a certain level of greed, it means that it has surged from its recent lowest value by a corresponding number of standard deviations. The indicator helps traders see the maximum levels to which the price may rise and estimate the potential height of the current surge. Five-seven sigma surges are relatively rare events and correspond to significant market exuberance. Careful traders and shorter-term ones would not want to participate in the bandwagon effect and herd behavior that drive market bubbles. They prefer to take their profits when the market is not exceedingly overbought.
SETTINGS
Window : the averaging window or period of the indicator. The algorithm uses this parameter to calculate the base level and standard deviations. Higher values are better for measuring deeper and longer surges.
Levels Stability : the parameter used in the up-move detection. The higher the value is, the more stable and long the greed levels are, but at the same time, the lag increases. The lower it is, the faster the indicator responds to the price changes, but the greed levels are recalculated more frequently and are less stable. This parameter is mostly for fine-tuning. It does not change the overall picture much.
Mode : the parameter that defines the style for the labels. In the Cool Guys Mode, the indicator displays the labels as emojis. In the Serious Guys Mode, labels show the distance from the base level measured in standard deviation units or sigmas.
Super Multi Trend [Salty]This script uses the 5, 8, 13, 21, 34 low, 34 close, 34 high, and 55 EMAs in comparison to each other to gauge momentum and trend strength for the current ticker. Additionally, it provides the ability to compare to 3 additional tickers at the same time (Uncheck boxes in settings to hide if desired). For the Super Trend Row darker colors are more bearish than lighter colors, and consequently lighter colors are more bullish than darker colors. Yellow indicates a neutral or choppy market. Fully stacked EMAs are shown with a Light Green (Lime) color for the bullish condition, and Dark Red for the bearish condition.
Linear Regression Relative Strength[image/x/iZvwDWEY/
Relative Strength indicator comparing the current symbol to SPY (or any other benchmark). It may help to pick the right assets to complement the portfolio build around core ETFs such as SPY.
The general idea is to show if the current symbol outperforms or underperforms the benchmark (SPY by default) when bought some certain time ago. Relative performance is displayed as percent and is calculated for three different time ranges - short (1 mo by default), mid (1 quarter), and long (half a year). To smooth the volatility, the script uses linear regression to estimate the trend and takes the start and the end points of the linear regression line to compute the relative strength.
It is important to remember that the script shows the gain relative to SPY (or other selected benchmark), not the asset's gain. Therefore, it may indicate that the asset is profitable, but it still may lose value if SPY is in downtrend.
Therefore, it is crucial to check other indicators before making a decision. In the example above, standard linear regression for one quarter is used to indicate the direction of the trend.
4-Way EMA Trend4 separate EMAs that are used to determine trend, colored appropriately to reflect the trend to make it easy to tell what the trend is. All 4 EMAs are not needed, you can turn each one on and off individually and the indicator will adjust itself accordingly. Having a single EMA will use the closing price to determine the trend. There are 2 different types of trend detection; EMA Flip and EMA Confluence. EMA Flip is dependent on all active EMAs rising or falling in the correct hierarchical order. The EMA Confluence option is if all EMAs are moving in the same direction. I've found that this second option, EMA Confluence, is more accurate in getting in early before strong movements because the EMAs will more often move in the same direction before they "flip".
[Rygel] Trend Reversal IndicatorThis indicator is a trend reversal detector. It provides a bullish or bearish signal derived from the analysis of 22 indicators.
It analyzes and aggregates the divergences and the overbought and oversold conditions to determine a signal strength going from -100 to 100.
You can choose the appearance of the signals, how sensitive you want the signals to be and the indicators you want to use.
You can also display divergences, and show signal, divergence, overbought and oversold strength as a background color.
This indicators also provides several alerts.
You can find more information about the divergence algorithm I'm using on this page .
Please note this indicator will not give you buy nor sell signals. A bullish signal will not always be followed by a bearish one and vice-versa. You may get the same type of signals for a long time ; expect to see far more bearish signals in a bullish market and far more bullish signals in a bearish market.
You should never make a buy or sell decision based solely on this indicator, even when the signal is very strong.
This indicator is made to help you to confirm your market analysis and to warn you of possible incoming trend reversals so you can anticipate them and adapt your trading strategy accordingly. It may also help you to optimize your DCA times of purchase.
Please note a signal becomes final only after the bar after it is closed, as a divergence pivot may still be invalidated by then. When the signal bar is closed, the signal is considered as confirmed but may still disappears if it is invalidated by the next bar. When the second bar is closed, the signal is made final and stays definitely on the chart.
This indicator currently supports the following indicators as sources:
AO (Awesome Oscillator)
BBP (Bear Bull Power)
CCI (Commodity Channel Index)
CMF (Chaikin Money Flow)
CO (Chaikin Oscillator)
EOM (Ease of Movement)
MACD (Moving Average Convergence Divergence)
MACD histogram
MFI (Money Flow Index)
MOM (Momentum)
OBV (On-Balance Volume)
OBV oscillator
RSI (Relative Strength Index)
RVGI (Relative Vigor Index)
RVI (Relative Volatility Index)
Stochastic
Stochastic RSI
TSI (True Strength Index)
UO (Ultimate Oscillator)
VWMACD (Volume-Weighted MACD)
VWMACD histogram
WT (Wave Trend)
You can disable any of them in the settings. You only need one indicator source enabled for the Trend Reversal Indicator to work.
If you disable some indicators, you may need to lower the sensitivity or even use a custom one as the signals strength will probably be higher as it will be easier to match most of the indicators.
As this indicator makes a lot of computation, it takes a few seconds to load. If it's an issue for you, you may improve its performance by disabling some indicator sources.
HOW IS THE SIGNAL CALCULATED
The algorithm analyzes the last three bars (the current one and the two previous bars) and for each enabled indicator source:
Add one point for a positive divergence ;
Add one point for an oversold condition (when the indicator supports it) ;
Add one point for a strongly oversold condition (cumulated with the oversold point) ;
Remove one point for a negative divergence ;
Remove one point for an overbought condition ;
Remove one point for a strongly overbought condition (cumulated with the overbought point).
It then normalizes the signal from -100 to 100, where -100 is the minimum theoretical score and 100 is the maximum theoretical one.
The algorithm detects up to 100 bars long divergences.
SETTINGS
SIGNAL SENSITIVITY
You can set the indicator sensitivity to one of five levels.
Very low (60):
Low (55):
Medium (50): (this is the default value)
High (45):
Very high (40):
You can also set a custom sensitivity by choosing "Custom" and filling the "Custom sensitivity" field.
SIGNAL APPARENCE
Show signal strength: replace the "Bear" and "Bull" label with the signal strength.
Show indicator names: add the indicator names to the label to know exactly what got detected.
OB is for "overbought", OS is for "oversold", OB+ is for "strongly overbought" and OS+ for "strongly oversold".
DIVERGENCES
Show divergences: add all the detected divergences to the graph. The more divergences are in the same zone, the brighter the colors are. Please note TradingView limits to 500 the number of lines you can display at anytime, so divergences will only be shown for the most recent bars.
BACKGROUNDS
You can show signal, divergence, overbought and oversold strength as a background color.
Show signal background:
Show divergence background:
The more divergences are detected in the same bar, the brighter the color is.
Please note the divergence background only shows confirmed divergences. It requires two bars for a divergence to be confirmed.

ALERTS
This indicator offers multiple alerts.
New trend reversal signal: a new trend reversal signal has been detected. Bar is not yet closed, signal may still be invalidated and disappear. It's the earliest alert you can get but you'll also get many false positives.
New bearish trend reversal signal: identical, but with bearish signals only.
New bullish trend reversal signal: identical, but with bullish signals only.
Confirmed trend reversal signal: a trend reversal signal has been confirmed. The signal bar is closed but the signal may still be invalidated by the current bar. You'll get far less false positives.
Confirmed bearish trend reversal signal: identical, but with bearish signals only.
Confirmed bullish trend reversal signal: identical, but with bullish signals only.
Final trend reversal signal: a trend reversal signal has been confirmed and is now final. The signal bar and the following one are closed. The signal can't change anymore but it will likely be too late to act on some signals, especially bearish ones. Crashes can be brutal whereas bullish trend reversals usually take more time to unfold.
Final bearish trend reversal signal: identical, but with bearish signals only.
Final bullish trend reversal signal: identical, but with bullish signals only.
