Kaufman Trend Strength Signal█ Overview
Kaufman Trend Strength Signal is an advanced trend detection tool that decomposes price action into its underlying directional trend and localized oscillation using a vector-based Kalman Filter.
By integrating adaptive smoothing and dynamic weighting via a weighted moving average (WMA), this indicator provides real-time insight into both trend direction and trend strength — something standard moving averages often fail to capture.
The core model assumes that observed price consists of two components:
(1) a directional trend, and
(2) localized noise or oscillation.
Using a two-step Predict & Update cycle, the filter continuously refines its trend estimate as new market data becomes available.
█ How It Works
This indicator employs a Kalman Filter model that separates the trend from short-term fluctuations in a price series.
Predict & Update Cycle : With each new bar, the filter predicts the price state and updates that prediction using the latest observed price, producing a smooth but adaptive trend line.
Trend Strength Normalization : Internally, the oscillator component is normalized against recent values (N periods) to calculate a trend strength score between -100 and +100.
(Note: The oscillator is not plotted on the chart but is used for signal generation.)
Filtered MA Line : The trend component is plotted as a smooth Kalman Filter-based moving average (MA) line on the main chart.
Threshold Cross Signals : When the internal trend strength crosses a user-defined threshold (default: ±60), visual entry arrows are displayed to signal momentum shifts.
█ Key Features
Adaptive Trend Estimation : Real-time filtering that adjusts dynamically to market changes.
Visual Buy/Sell Signals : Entry arrows appear when the trend strength crosses above or below the configured threshold.
Built-in Range Filter : The MA line turns blue when trend strength is weak (|value| < 10), helping you filter out choppy, sideways conditions.
█ How to Use
Trend Detection :
• Green MA = bullish trend
• Red MA = bearish trend
• Blue MA = no trend / ranging market
Entry Signals :
• Green triangle = trend strength crossed above +Threshold → potential bullish entry
• Red triangle = trend strength crossed below -Threshold → potential bearish entry
█ Settings
Entry Threshold : Level at which the trend strength triggers entry signals (default: 60)
Process Noise 1 & 2 : Control the filter’s responsiveness to recent price action. Higher = more reactive; lower = smoother.
Measurement Noise : Sets how much the filter "trusts" price data. High = smoother MA, low = faster response but more noise.
Trend Lookback (N2) : Number of bars used to normalize trend strength. Lower = more sensitive; higher = more stable.
Trend Smoothness (R2) : WMA smoothing applied to the trend strength calculation.
█ Visual Guide
Green MA Line → Bullish trend
Red MA Line → Bearish trend
Blue MA Line → Sideways/range
Green Triangle → Entry signal (trend strengthening)
Red Triangle → Entry signal (trend weakening)
█ Best Practices
In high-volatility conditions, increase Measurement Noise to reduce false signals.
Combine with other indicators (e.g., RSI, MACD, EMA) for confirmation and filtering.
Adjust "Entry Threshold" and noise settings depending on your timeframe and trading style.

Trend Scanner ProTrend Scanner Pro, Robust Trend Direction and Strength Estimator
Trend Scanner Pro is designed to evaluate the current market trend with maximum robustness, providing both direction and strength based on statistically reliable data.
This indicator builds upon the core logic of a previous script I developed, called Best SMA Finder. While the original script focused on identifying the most profitable SMA length based on backtested trade performance, Trend Scanner Pro takes that foundation further to serve a different purpose: analyzing and quantifying the actual trend state in real time.
It begins by testing hundreds of SMA lengths, from 10 to 1000 periods. Each one is scored using a custom robustness formula that combines profit factor, number of trades, and win rate. Only SMAs with a sufficient number of trades are retained, ensuring statistical validity and avoiding curve fitting.
The SMA with the highest robustness score is selected as the dynamic reference point. The script then calculates how far the price deviates from it using rolling standard deviation, assigning a trend strength score from -5 (strong bearish) to +5 (strong bullish), with 0 as neutral.
Two detection modes are available:
Slope mode, based on SMA slope reversals
Bias mode, based on directional shifts relative to deviation zones
Optional features:
Deviation bands for visual structure
Candle coloring to reflect trend strength
Compact table showing real-time trend status
This tool is intended for traders who want an adaptive, objective, and statistically grounded assessment of market trend conditions.
Laplace Momentum Percentile ║ BullVision 🔬 Overview
Laplace Momentum Percentile ║ BullVision is a custom-built trend analysis tool that applies Laplace-inspired smoothing to price action and maps the result to a historical percentile scale. This provides a contextual view of trend intensity, with optional signal refinement using a Kalman filter.
This indicator is designed for traders and analysts seeking a normalized, scale-independent perspective on market behavior. It does not attempt to predict price but instead helps interpret the relative strength or weakness of recent movements.
⚙️ Key Concepts
📉 Laplace-Based Smoothing
The core signal is built using a Laplace-style weighted average, applying an exponential decay to price values over a specified length. This emphasizes recent movements while still accounting for historical context.
🎯 Percentile Mapping
Rather than displaying the raw output, the filtered signal is converted into a percentile rank based on its position within a historical lookback window. This helps normalize interpretation across different assets and timeframes.
🧠 Optional Kalman Filter
For users seeking additional smoothing, a Kalman filter is included. This statistical method updates signal estimates dynamically, helping reduce short-term fluctuations without introducing significant lag.
🔧 User Settings
🔁 Transform Parameters
Transform Parameter (s): Controls the decay rate for Laplace weighting.
Calculation Length: Sets how many candles are used for smoothing.
📊 Percentile Settings
Lookback Period: Defines how far back to calculate the historical percentile ranking.
🧠 Kalman Filter Controls
Enable Kalman Filter: Optional toggle.
Process Noise / Measurement Noise: Adjust the filter’s responsiveness and tolerance to volatility.
🎨 Visual Settings

🧩 Trend Classification Logic
The indicator segments percentile values into five zones:
Above 80: Strong upward trend
50–80: Mild upward trend
20–50: Neutral zone
0–20: Mild downward trend
Below 0: Strong downward trend
🔍 Use Cases
This tool is intended as a visual and contextual aid for identifying trend regimes, assessing historical momentum strength, or supporting broader confluence-based analysis. It can be used in combination with other tools or frameworks at the discretion of the trader.
⚠️ Important Notes

It is intended for educational and analytical purposes only.
It should be used as part of a broader decision-making process.
Past signal behavior should not be interpreted as indicative of future results.
SuperTrend Confluence Signals [AlgoAlpha]OVERVIEW
This script enhances the classic SuperTrend indicator by integrating volume dynamics, retracement detection, and a multi-asset trend matrix—alongside an automatic mitigation-level drawing system. It's designed for traders who want to see not just trend direction, but the confluence of trend strength, volatility-adjusted retracements, and capital flow through volume pressure. It visually maps key transitions in market structure while offering a clean, color-coded overview of multiple symbols and timeframes in a single chart.
CONCEPTS
At the core is the traditional SuperTrend , which determines directional bias using Average True Range (ATR) with a volatility multiplier. This script overlays that with a dynamic volume histogram that scales relative to recent volume standard deviation, coloring volume bursts within the trend. Retracement signals are triggered when price pulls back toward the SuperTrend level but respects it—quantified through normalized distance sensitivity. On top of that, the indicator automatically draws and manages horizontal support/resistance zones that appear at key trend shifts. These levels persist and are cleared based on configurable rules such as wick/body sweeps or consecutive candle closes. A multi-asset, multi-timeframe table then gives an instant snapshot of trend status across five user-defined symbols and timeframes.
FEATURES
SuperTrend : Configurable ATR length and multiplier for flexible trend sensitivity.
Volumetric Histogram : Gradient-filled candles anchored to SuperTrend bands, scaled by relative volume to indicate activity intensity during trends.
Retracement Arrows : Signals printed when price nears the SuperTrend level without breaking it, allowing identification of high-probability continuation zones.
Volume TP Markers : Diamond markers flag high-volume events, contextualizing price moves with liquidity bursts.
Automatic Structure Levels : Draws clean horizontal lines at significant trend transitions, with optional volatility-based band fills. These levels self-update and clear based on price interaction logic.
Trend Table : Displays trend direction (▲/▼) across five assets and five timeframes. Each cell is colored according to trend bias, providing a compact overview for multi-market confluence.
USAGE
Start by loading the indicator on your main chart and adjusting the ATR Length and Multiplier to match your strategy timeframe. Use lower values for scalping and higher values for swing trading. The histogram bars will appear as colored candles above or below the SuperTrend level, indicating how strong volume is within that trend. Arrow signals suggest minor pullbacks within the trend, which can act as entry opportunities. The level system will automatically plot key price zones during trend flips; if "Body" is selected for mitigation, price must close through the level to invalidate it. If "Wick" is chosen, a single wick breach is enough. Adjust expiry and rejection settings to fine-tune how long levels stay on chart. Finally, enable the Multi-Asset Table to view live trend signals across popular symbols like AAPL or NVDA in different timeframes, helping spot macro-to-micro alignment for higher-confidence trades.
SOXL Trend Surge v3.0.2 – Profit-Only RunnerSOXL Trend Surge v3.0.2 – Profit-Only Runner
This is a trend-following strategy built for leveraged ETFs like SOXL, designed to ride high-momentum waves with minimal interference. Unlike most short-term scalping scripts, this model allows trades to develop over multiple days to even several months, capitalizing on the full power of extended directional moves — all without using a stop-loss.
🔍 How It Works
Entry Logic:
Price is above the 200 EMA (long-term trend confirmation)
Supertrend is bullish (momentum confirmation)
ATR is rising (volatility expansion)
Volume is above its 20-bar average (liquidity filter)
Price is outside a small buffer zone from the 200 EMA (to avoid whipsaws)
Trades are restricted to market hours only (9 AM to 2 PM EST)
Cooldown of 15 bars after each exit to prevent overtrading
Exit Strategy:
Takes partial profit at +2× ATR if held for at least 2 bars
Rides the remaining position with a trailing stop at 1.5× ATR
No hard stop-loss — giving space for volatile pullbacks
⚙️ Strategy Settings
Initial Capital: $500
Risk per Trade: 100% of equity (fully allocated per entry)
Commission: 0.1%
Slippage: 1 tick
Recalculate after order is filled
Fill orders on bar close
Timeframe Optimized For: 45-minute chart
These parameters simulate an aggressive, high-volatility trading model meant for forward-testing compounding potential under realistic trading costs.
✅ What Makes This Unique
No stop-loss = fewer premature exits
Partial profit-taking helps lock in early wins
Trailing logic gives room to ride large multi-week moves
Uses strict filters (volume, ATR, EMA bias) to enter only during high-probability windows
Ideal for leveraged ETF swing or position traders looking to hold longer than the typical intraday or 2–3 day strategies
⚠️ Important Note
This is a high-risk, high-reward strategy meant for educational and testing purposes. Without a stop-loss, trades can experience deep drawdowns that may take weeks or even months to recover. Always test thoroughly and adjust position sizing to suit your risk tolerance. Past results do not guarantee future returns. Backtest range: May 8, 2020 – May 23, 2025
Disparity Index with Volatility ZonesDisparity Index with Volatility Zones
is a momentum oscillator that measures the percentage difference between the current price and its simple moving average (SMA). This allows traders to identify overbought/oversold conditions, assess momentum strength, and detect potential trend reversals or continuations.
🔍 Core Concept:
The Disparity Index (DI) is calculated as:
DI = 100 × (Price − SMA) / SMA
A positive DI indicates the price is trading above its moving average (potential bullish sentiment), while a negative DI suggests the price is below the average (potential bearish sentiment).
This version of the Disparity Index introduces a dual-zone volatility framework, offering deeper insight into the market's current state.
🧠 What Makes This Version Unique?
1. High Volatility Zones
When DI crosses above +1.0% or below –1.0%, it often indicates the start or continuation of a strong trend.
Sustained readings beyond these thresholds typically align with trending phases, offering opportunities for momentum-based entries.
A reversal back within ±1.0% after exceeding these levels can suggest a shift in momentum — similar to how RSI exits the overbought/oversold zones before reversals.
These thresholds act as dynamic markers for breakout confirmation and potential trend exhaustion.
2. Low Volatility Zones
DI values between –0.5% and +0.5% define the low-volatility zone, shaded for visual clarity.
This area typically indicates market indecision, sideways price action, or consolidation.
Trading within this range may favor range-bound or mean-reversion strategies, as trend momentum is likely limited.
The logic is similar to interpreting a flat ADX, tight Bollinger Bands, or contracting Keltner Channels — all suggesting consolidation.
⚙️ Features:
Customizable moving average length and input source
Adjustable thresholds for overbought/oversold and low-volatility zones
Optional visual fill between low-volatility bounds
Clean and minimal chart footprint (non-essential plots hidden by default)
📈 How to Use:
1. Trend Confirmation:
A break above +1.0% can be used as a bullish continuation signal.
A break below –1.0% may confirm bearish strength.
Long periods above/below these thresholds support trend-following entries.
2. Reversal Detection:
If DI returns below +1.0% after exceeding it, bullish momentum may be fading.
If DI rises above –1.0% after falling below, bearish pressure may be weakening.
These shifts resemble overbought/oversold transitions in oscillators like RSI or Stochastic, and can be paired with divergence, volume, or price structure analysis for higher reliability.
3. Sideways Market Detection:
DI values within ±0.5% indicate low volatility or a non-trending environment.
Traders may avoid breakout entries during these periods or apply range-trading tactics instead.
Observing transitions out of the low-volatility zone can help anticipate breakouts.
4. Combine with Other Indicators:
DI signals can be enhanced using tools like MACD, Volume Oscillators, or Moving Averages.
For example, a DI breakout beyond ±1.0% supported by a MACD crossover or volume spike can help validate trend initiation.
This indicator is especially powerful when paired with Bollinger Bands:
A simultaneous price breakout from the Bollinger Band and DI moving beyond ±1.0% can help identify early trend inflection points.
This combination supports entering positions early in a developing trend, improving the efficiency of trend-following strategies and enhancing decision-making precision.
It also helps filter false breakouts when DI fails to confirm the move outside the band.
This indicator is designed for educational and analytical purposes and works across all timeframes and asset classes.
It is particularly useful for traders seeking a clear framework to identify momentum strength, filter sideways markets, and improve entry timing within a larger trading system.
Hurst Exponent Oscillator [PhenLabs]📊 Hurst Exponent Oscillator -
Version: PineScript™ v5
📌 Description
The Hurst Exponent Oscillator (HEO) by PhenLabs is a powerful tool developed for traders who want to distinguish between trending, mean-reverting, and random market behaviors with clarity and precision. By estimating the Hurst Exponent—a statistical measure of long-term memory in financial time series—this indicator helps users make sense of underlying market dynamics that are often not visible through traditional moving averages or oscillators.
Traders can quickly know if the market is likely to continue its current direction (trending), revert to the mean, or behave randomly, allowing for more strategic timing of entries and exits. With customizable smoothing and clear visual cues, the HEO enhances decision-making in a wide range of trading environments.
🚀 Points of Innovation
Integrates advanced Hurst Exponent calculation via Rescaled Range (R/S) analysis, providing unique market character insights.
Offers real-time visual cues for trending, mean-reverting, or random price action zones.
User-controllable EMA smoothing reduces noise for clearer interpretation.

✅ Best Use Cases
Identifying if a market is regime-shifting from trending to mean-reverting (or vice versa).
Filtering signals in automated or systematic trading strategies.
Spotting periods of randomness where trading signals should be deprioritized.
Enhancing mean-reversion or trend-following models with regime-awareness.
⚠️ Limitations
Not predictive: Reflects current and recent market state, not future direction.
Sensitive to input parameters—overfitting may occur if settings are changed too frequently.
Smoothing can introduce lag in regime recognition.
May not work optimally in markets with structural breaks or extreme volatility.
💡 What Makes This Unique
Employs advanced statistical market analysis (Hurst exponent) rarely found in standard toolkits.
Offers immediate regime visualization through smart dynamic coloring and zone fills.
🔬 How It Works
Rolling Log Return Calculation:
Each new price creates a log return, forming the basis for robust, non-linear analysis. This ensures all price differences are treated proportionally.
Rescaled Range Analysis:
A rolling window maintains cumulative deviations and computes the statistical “range” (max-min of deviations). This is compared against the standard deviation to estimate “memory”.
Exponent Calculation & Smoothing:
The raw Hurst value is translated from the log of the rescaled range ratio, and then optionally smoothed via EMA to dampen noise and false signals.
Regime Detection Logic:
The smoothed value is checked against 0.5. Values above = trending; below = mean-reverting; near 0.5 = random. These control plot/fill color and zone display.
💡 Note:
Use longer calculation lengths for major market character study, and shorter ones for tactical, short-term adaptation. Smoothing balances noise vs. lag—find a best fit for your trading style. Always combine regime awareness with broader technical/fundamental context for best results.
The Ultimate Buy and Sell Indicator: Unholy Grail Edition"You see, Watson, the market is not random—it simply whispers in a code too complex for the average trader. Lucky for you, I am not average."
They searched for the Holy Grail of trading for decades—promises, false prophets, and overpriced PDFs.
But they were all looking in the wrong place.
This isn’t a relic buried in the desert.
This is the Unholy Grail — a machine-forged fusion of logic, engineering, and tactical overkill .
Built by Sherlock Macgyver , this is not a mystical object. It’s a surveillance system for trend detection, signal validation, and precision entries .
⚠️ Important: This script draws its own candles.
To see it properly, disable regular candles by turning off "Body", "Wick" and "Border" colors.
🔧 What You’re Looking At
This overlay plots confirmed Buy/Sell signals , momentum-based “watch” zones , adaptive candle coloring , SuperTrend bias detection , dual Bollinger Bands , and a moving average ribbon .
It’s not “minimalist” —it’s comprehensive .
📍 Configuring the Tool: Follow the Breadcrumbs
Every setting includes a tooltip — read them . They're not filler. They explain exactly how each feature functions so you can dial this thing in like you're tuning a surveillance rig in a Cold War bunker .
If you skip them, you're walking blind in a minefield .
🕰️ Timeframes: The Signal Sweet Spot
Each asset has a tempo . You need to find the one where signals align with clarity —not chaos .
Start with 4H or 1H —work up or down from there.
Too many fakeouts? → Higher timeframe
Too slow? → Drop to 15m or 5m —but expect more noise and adjust settings accordingly.
The signals scale with time, but you must find the rhythm that best fits your asset—and your trading lifestyle .
♻️ RSI Cycle = Signal Sensitivity
This is the heart of the system . It controls how reactive the RSI engine is.
Adjust based on noise level and how often you can actually monitor your charts.
Short cycle (14–24): More signals, more speed, more noise
Longer cycle (36–64): Smoother entries, better for swing traders
Tip: If your signals feel too jittery, increase the cycle. If they lag too much, reduce it.
📉 SuperTrend: Your Trend Bias Compass
This isn’t your average SuperTrend. It adapts with RSI overlay logic and detects market “silence” via EMA compression— turning white right before the chaos . That said, you still control its aggression.
ATR Length = how many bars to average
ATR Factor = how tight or loose it hugs price
Lower = more sensitive (more trades, more noise)
Higher = confirmation only (fewer, but stronger signals)
Tweak until it feels like a sniper rifle.
No, you won’t get it perfect on the first try.
Yes, it’s worth it.
🛠️ Modular Signals: Why Things Fire (or Don’t)
Buy/Sell entries require conditions to align. The logic is modular, and that’s on purpose.
RSI signals only fire if RSI crosses its smoothed MA outside the dead zone and a “Watch” condition is active.
SuperTrend signals can be enabled to act on crossovers, optionally ignoring the Watch filter .
Watch conditions (colored squares) act as early recon and hint at possible upcoming trades.
Background color changes are “pre-signal warnings” and will repaint . Use them as leading signals, not gospel.
Want more trades? Loosen your filters .
Want sniper entries? Lock them down .
🌈 Candles and MAs: Visual Market Structure
Candles adapt in real-time to MA structure:
Green = bullish (above both fast/slow MAs)
Yellow = indecision (between)
Red = bearish (below both)
Buy/Sell signals override candles with bright orange and fuchsia —because subtlety doesn’t win wars .
You can also enable up to 8 customizable moving averages —great for confluence , trend confirmation , or just looking like a wizard .

Max Trend Points [BigBeluga]🔵 OVERVIEW
A clean and powerful tool for identifying major trend shifts and quantifying the strength of each move using dynamically calculated price extremes.
This indicator helps traders visualize the most significant trend changes by plotting trend direction lines and dynamically tracking the highest or lowest point within each trend leg. It’s ideal for identifying key price impulses and measuring their magnitude in real time.
🔵 CONCEPTS
Uses an adaptive trend-following logic based on volatility envelopes created from HMA of the price range (high - low).
Identifies trend direction and flips when price breaks above or below these dynamic envelopes.
Tracks swing highs and lows within the current trend leg to highlight trend extremes.
Calculates and displays the percentage gain or drop from trend start to trend peak/valley.
🔵 FEATURES
Trend Shift Detection:
Plots a colored trend line (uptrend or downtrend) that updates based on price action volatility.
Impulse Mapping:
Draws a dashed line between the point of trend change (close) and the current trend leg's extreme (highest high or lowest low).
Percentage Labeling:
Displays a floating label showing the exact percent change from the trend start to the current extreme.
Real-Time Adjustments:
As the trend progresses, the extreme point and the percent label update automatically to reflect new highs/lows.
🔵 HOW TO USE
Look for the trend color shift and circular marker to identify a new potential trend direction.
Use the dashed lines and percent label to evaluate the strength and potential maturity of each move.
Combine this tool with support/resistance levels or other indicators to identify confluence zones.
Adjust the "Factor" input to make the trend detection more or less sensitive depending on your timeframe.
🔵 CONCLUSION
Max Trend Points is an efficient visual indicator for understanding the structure and magnitude of trending moves. It provides essential feedback on how far a trend has traveled, where momentum may be peaking, and when a shift may be underway—all with real-time adaptability and clean presentation.
Market Structure Confluence [AlgoAlpha]OVERVIEW
This script is called "Market Structure Confluence" and it combines classic market structure analysis with a dynamic volatility-based band system to detect shifts in trend and momentum more reliably. It tracks key swing points (higher highs, higher lows, lower highs, lower lows) to define the trend, then overlays a basis and ATR-smoothed volatility bands to catch rejection signals and highlight potential inflection points in the market.
CONCEPTS
Market structure is the foundation of price action trading, focusing on the relationship between successive highs and lows to understand trend conditions. Break of Structure (BOS) and Change of Character (CHoCH) events are important because they signal when a market might be shifting direction. This script enhances traditional structure by integrating volatility bands, which act like dynamic support/resistance zones based on ATR, allowing it to capture momentum surges and rejections beyond just structural shifts.
FEATURES
Swing Detection: It detects and labels Higher Highs (HH), Higher Lows (HL), Lower Highs (LH), and Lower Lows (LL) based on user-defined time horizons, helping traders quickly spot the trend direction.
BOS and CHoCH Lines: When a previous swing point is broken, the script automatically plots a Break of Structure (BOS) line. If the break represents a major trend reversal (a CHoCH), it is marked differently to separate simple breakouts from real trend changes.
Rejection Signals: Special arrows plot when price pierces a band and then pulls back, suggesting a potential trap move or rejection signal in the direction of the new structure.
Alerts: Built-in alerts for structure breaks, CHoCHs, swing points, rejections at bands, and trend flips make it easy to automate setups without manually watching the chart.
USAGE
Set your preferred swing detection size depending on your timeframe and trading style — smaller numbers for intraday, larger numbers for swing trading. Choose whether you want BOS/CHoCH confirmed by candle closes or by wick breaks. Use the volatility band settings to fine-tune how tightly or loosely the bands hug the price, adjusting sensitivity based on market conditions. When a BOS or CHoCH occurs, or when a rejection happens at the bands, the script will highlight it clearly and optionally trigger alerts. Watch for combinations where both structure breaks and volatility band rejections happen together — those are high-quality trade signals. This setup works best when used with basic trend filtering and higher timeframe confirmation.

It visualizes price momentum through a dynamic oscillator that quantifies trend strength and direction, helping traders and investors recognize momentum shifts and trading opportunities across various timeframes and asset class.
🟢 Technical Foundation
The Aurora Flow Oscillator employs a sophisticated mathematical approach with adaptive momentum filtering to analyze market conditions, including:
Price-Based Momentum Calculation: Calculates logarithmic price changes to measure the rate and magnitude of market movement
Adaptive Momentum Filtering: Applies an advanced filtering algorithm to smooth momentum calculations while preserving important signals
Acceleration Analysis: Incorporates momentum acceleration to identify shifts in market direction before they become obvious
Signal Normalization: Automatically scales the oscillator output to a range between -100 and 100 for consistent interpretation across different market conditions
The indicator processes price data through multiple filtering stages, applying mathematical principles including exponential smoothing with adaptive coefficients. This creates an oscillator that dynamically adjusts to market volatility while maintaining responsiveness to genuine trend changes.
🟢 Key Features & Signals
1. Momentum Flow and Extreme Zone Identification
The oscillator presents market momentum through an intuitive visual display that clearly indicates both direction and strength:
Above Zero: Indicates positive momentum and potential bullish conditions
Below Zero: Indicates negative momentum and potential bearish conditions
Slope Direction: The angle and direction of the oscillator provide immediate insight into momentum strength
Zero Line Crossings: Signal potential trend changes and new directional momentum
The indicator also identifies potential overbought and oversold market conditions through extreme zone markings:
Upper Zone (>50): Indicates strong bullish momentum that may be approaching exhaustion
Lower Zone (<-50): Indicates strong bearish momentum that may be approaching exhaustion
Extreme Boundaries (±95): Mark potentially unsustainable momentum levels where reversals become increasingly likely
These zones are displayed with gradient intensity that increases as the oscillator moves toward extremes, helping traders and investors:
→ Identify potential reversal zones
→ Determine appropriate entry and exit points
→ Gauge overall market sentiment strength
2. Customizable Trading Style Presets
The Aurora Flow Oscillator offers pre-configured settings for different trading approaches:
Default (80,150): Balanced configuration suitable for most trading and investing situations.
Scalping (5,80): Highly responsive settings for ultra-short-term trades. Generates frequent signals and catches quick price movements. Best for 1-15min charts when making many trades per day.
Day Trading (8,120): Optimized for intraday movements with faster response than default settings while maintaining reasonable signal quality. Ideal for 5-60min or 4h-12h timeframes.
Swing Trading (10,200): Designed for multi-day positions with stronger noise filtering. Focuses on capturing larger price swings while avoiding minor fluctuations. Works best on 1-4h and daily charts.
Position Trading (14,250): For longer-term position traders/investors seeking significant market trends. Reduces false signals by heavily filtering market noise. Ideal for daily or even weekly charts.
Trend Following (16,300): Maximum smoothing that prioritizes established directional movements over short-term fluctuations. Best used on daily and weekly charts, but can also be used for lower timeframe trading.
Countertrend (7,100): Tuned to detect potential reversals and exhaustion points in trends. More sensitive to momentum shifts than other presets. Effective on 15min-4h charts, as well as daily and weekly charts.
Each preset automatically adjusts internal parameters for optimal performance in the selected trading context, providing flexibility across different market approaches without requiring complex manual configuration.
🟢 Practical Usage Tips
1/ Trend Analysis and Interpretation
→ Direction Assessment: Evaluate the oscillator's position relative to zero to determine underlying momentum bias
→ Momentum Strength: Measure the oscillator's distance from zero within the -100 to +100 range to quantify momentum magnitude
→ Trend Consistency: Monitor the oscillator's path for sustained directional movement without frequent zero-line crossings
→ Reversal Detection: Watch for oscillator divergence from price and deceleration of movement when approaching extreme zones
2/ Signal Generation Strategies
Depending on your trading approach, multiple signal strategies can be employed:
Trend Following Signals:
Enter long positions when the oscillator crosses above zero
Enter short positions when the oscillator crosses below zero
Add to positions on pullbacks while maintaining the overall trend direction
Countertrend Signals:
Look for potential reversals when the oscillator reaches extreme zones (±95)
Enter contrary positions when momentum shows signs of exhaustion
Use oscillator divergence with price as additional confirmation
Momentum Shift Signals:
Enter positions when oscillator changes direction after establishing a trend
Exit positions when oscillator direction reverses against your position
Scale position size based on oscillator strength percentage
3/ Timeframe Optimization
The indicator can be effectively applied across different timeframes with these considerations:
Lower Timeframes (1-15min):
Use Scalping or Day Trading presets
Focus on quick momentum shifts and zero-line crossings
Be cautious of noise in extreme market conditions
Medium Timeframes (30min-4h):
Use Default or Swing Trading presets
Look for established trends and potential reversal zones
Combine with support/resistance analysis for entry/exit precision
Higher Timeframes (Daily+):
Use Position Trading or Trend Following presets
Focus on major trend identification and long-term positioning
Use extreme zones for position management rather than immediate reversals
🟢 Pro Tips

Advanced Momentum Scanner [QuantAlgo]The Advanced Momentum Scanner is a sophisticated technical indicator designed to identify market momentum and trend direction using multiple exponential moving averages (EMAs), momentum metrics, and adaptive visualization techniques. It is particularly valuable for those looking to identify trading and investing opportunities based on trend changes and momentum shifts across any market and timeframe.
🟢 Technical Foundation
The Advanced Momentum Scanner utilizes a multi-layered approach with four different EMA periods to identify market momentum and trend direction:
Ultra-Fast EMA for quick trend changes detection (default: 5)
Fast EMA for short-term trend analysis (default: 10)
Mid EMA for intermediate confirmation (default: 30)
Slow EMA for long-term trend identification (default: 100)
For momentum detection, the indicator implements a Rate of Change (RoC) calculation to measure price momentum over a specified period. It further enhances analysis by incorporating RSI readings for overbought/oversold conditions, volatility measurements through ATR, and optional volume confirmation. When these elements align, the indicator generates trading signals based on the selected sensitivity mode (Conservative, Balanced, or Aggressive).
🟢 Key Features & Signals
1. Multi-Period Trend Identification
The indicator combines multiple EMAs of different lengths to provide comprehensive trend analysis within the same timeframe, displaying the information through color-coded visual elements on the chart.
When an uptrend is detected, chart elements are colored with the bullish theme color (default: green/teal).
Similarly, when a downtrend is detected, chart elements are colored with the bearish theme color (default: red).
During neutral or indecisive periods, chart elements are colored with a neutral gray color, providing clear visual distinction between trending and non-trending market conditions.
This visualization provides immediate insights into underlying trend direction without requiring separate indicators, helping traders and investors quickly identify the market's current state.
2. Trend Strength Information Panel
The trend panel operates in three different sensitivity modes (Conservative, Aggressive, and Balanced), each affecting how the indicator processes and displays market information.
The Conservative mode prioritizes trend sustainability over frequency, showing only strong trend movements with high probability.
The Aggressive mode detects early trend changes, providing more frequent signals but potentially more false positives.
The Balanced mode offers a middle ground with moderate signal frequency and reliability.
Regardless of the selected mode, the panel displays:
Current trend direction (UPTREND, DOWNTREND, or NEUTRAL)
Trend strength percentage (0-100%)
Early detection signals when applicable
The active sensitivity mode
This comprehensive approach helps traders and investors:
→ Assess the strength of current market trends
→ Identify early potential trend changes before full confirmation

Exponential Trend [AlgoAlpha]OVERVIEW
This script plots an adaptive exponential trend system that initiates from a dynamic anchor and accelerates based on time and direction. Unlike standard moving averages or trailing stops, the trend line here doesn't follow price directly—it expands exponentially from a pivot determined by a modified Supertrend logic. The result is a non-linear trend curve that starts at a specific price level and accelerates outward, allowing traders to visually assess trend strength, persistence, and early-stage reversal points through both base and volatility-adjusted extensions.
CONCEPTS
This indicator builds on the idea that trend-following tools often need dynamic, non-static expansion to reflect real market behavior. It uses a simplified Supertrend mechanism to define directional context and anchor levels, then applies an exponential growth function to simulate trend acceleration over time. The exponential growth is unidirectional and resets only when the direction flips, preserving trend memory. This method helps avoid whipsaws and adds time-weighted confirmation to trends. A volatility buffer—derived from ATR and modifiable by a width multiplier—adds a second layer to indicate zones of risk around the main trend path.
FEATURES
Exponential Trend Logic : Once a directional anchor is set, the base trend line accelerates using an exponential formula tied to elapsed bars, making the trend stronger the longer it persists.
Volatility-Adjusted Extension : A secondary band is plotted above or below the base trend line, widened by ATR to visualize volatility zones, act as soft stop regions or as a better entry point (Dynamic Support/Resistance).
Color-Coded Visualization : Clear green/red base and extension lines with shaded fills indicate trend direction and confidence levels.
Signal Markers & Alerts : Triangle markers indicate confirmed trend reversals. Built-in alerts notify users of bullish or bearish direction changes in real-time.
USAGE
Use this script to identify strong trends early, visually measure their momentum over time, and determine safe areas for entries or exits. Start by adjusting the *Exponential Rate* to control how quickly the trend expands—the higher the rate, the more aggressive the curve. The *Initial Distance* sets how far the anchor band is placed from price initially, helping filter out noise. Increase the *Width Multiplier* to widen the volatility zone for more conservative entries or exits. When the price crosses above or below the base line, a new trend is assumed and the exponential projection restarts from the new anchor. The base trend and its extension both shift over time, but only reset on a confirmed reversal. This makes the tool especially useful for momentum continuation setups or trailing stop logic in trending markets.
Trend Targets [AlgoAlpha]OVERVIEW
This script combines a smoothed trend-following model with dynamic price rejection logic and ATR-based target projection to give traders a complete visual framework for trading trend continuations. It overlays on price and automatically detects potential trend shifts, confirms rejections near dynamic support/resistance, and displays calculated stop-loss and take-profit levels to support structured risk-reward management. Unlike traditional indicators that only show trend direction or signal entries, this tool brings together a unique mix of signal validation, volatility-aware positioning, and layered profit-taking to guide decision-making with more context.
CONCEPTS
The core trend logic is built on a custom Supertrend that uses an ATR-based band structure with long smoothing chains—first through a WMA, then an EMA—allowing the trend line to respond to major shifts while ignoring noise. A key addition is the use of rejection logic: the script looks for consolidation candles that "hug" the smoothed trend line and counts how many consecutive bars reject from it. This behavior often precedes significant moves. A user-defined threshold filters out weak tests and highlights only meaningful rejections.
FEATURES
Trend Detection : Automatically identifies trend direction using a smoothed Supertrend (WMA + EMA), with shape markers on trend shifts and color-coded bars for clarity.
Rejection Signals : Detects price rejections at the trend line after a user-defined number of consolidation bars; plots ▲/▼ icons to highlight strong continuation setups.
Target Projection : On trend confirmation, plots entry, stop-loss (ATR-based), and three dynamic take-profit levels based on customizable multiples.
Dynamic Updates : All levels (entry, SL, TP1–TP3) auto-adjust based on volatility and are labeled in real time on the chart.
Customization : Users can tweak trend parameters, rejection confirmation count, SL/TP ratios, smoothing lengths, and appearance settings.
Alerts : Built-in alerts for trend changes, rejection events, and when TP1, TP2, or TP3 are reached.
Chart Overlay : Plots directly on price chart with minimal clutter and clearly labeled levels for easy trading.
USAGE
Start by tuning the Supertrend factor and ATR period to fit your asset and timeframe—higher values will catch bigger swings, lower values catch faster moves. The confirmation count should match how tightly you want to filter rejection behavior—higher values make signals rarer but stronger. When the trend shifts, the indicator colors the bars and line accordingly, and if enabled, plots the full entry-TP-SL structure. Rejection markers appear only after enough qualifying bars confirm price pressure at the trend line. This is especially useful for continuation plays where price retests the trend but fails to break it. All calculations are based on volatility (ATR), so targets naturally adjust with market conditions. Add alerts to get notified of important signals even when away from the chart.

Auto TrendLines [TradingFinder] Support Resistance Signal Alerts🔵 Introduction
The trendline is one of the most essential tools in technical analysis, widely used in financial markets such as Forex, cryptocurrency, and stocks. A trendline is a straight line that connects swing highs or swing lows and visually indicates the market’s trend direction.
Traders use trendlines to identify price structure, the strength of buyers and sellers, dynamic support and resistance zones, and optimal entry and exit points.
In technical analysis, trendlines are typically classified into three categories: uptrend lines (drawn by connecting higher lows), downtrend lines (formed by connecting lower highs), and sideways trends (moving horizontally). A valid trendline usually requires at least three confirmed touchpoints to be considered reliable for trading decisions.
Trendlines can serve as the foundation for a variety of trading strategies, such as the trendline bounce strategy, valid breakout setups, and confluence-based analysis with other tools like candlestick patterns, divergences, moving averages, and Fibonacci levels.
Additionally, trendlines are categorized into internal and external, and further into major and minor levels, each serving unique roles in market structure analysis.
🔵 How to Use
Trendlines are a key component in technical analysis, used to identify market direction, define dynamic support and resistance zones, highlight strategic entry and exit points, and manage risk. For a trendline to be reliable, it must be drawn based on structural principles—not by simply connecting two arbitrary points.
🟣 Selecting Pivot Types Based on Trend Direction
The first step is to determine the market trend: uptrend, downtrend, or sideways.
Then, choose pivot points that match the trend type :
In an uptrend, trendlines are drawn by connecting low pivots, especially higher lows.
In a downtrend, trendlines are formed by connecting high pivots, specifically lower highs.
It is crucial to connect pivots of the same type and structure to ensure the trendline is valid and analytically sound.
🟣 Pivot Classification
This indicator automatically classifies pivot points into two categories :
Major Pivots :
MLL : Major Lower Low
MHL : Major Higher Low
MHH : Major Higher High
MLH : Major Lower High
These define the primary structure of the market and are typically used in broader structural analysis.
Minor Pivots :
mLL: minor Lower Low
mHL: minor Higher Low
mHH: minor Higher High
mLH: minor Lower High
These are used for drawing more precise trendlines within corrective waves or internal price movements.
Example : In a downtrend, drawing a trendline from an MHH to an mHH creates structural inconsistency and introduces noise. Instead, connect points like MHL to MHL or mLH to mLH for a valid trendline.
🟣 Drawing High-Precision Trendlines
To ensure a reliable trendline :
Use pivots of the same classification (Major with Major or Minor with Minor).
Ensure at least three valid contact points (three touches = structural confirmation).
Draw through candles with the least deviation (choose wicks or bodies based on confluence).
Preferably draw from right to left for better alignment with current market behavior.
Use parallel lines to turn a single trendline into a trendline zone, if needed.
🟣 Using Trendlines for Trade Entries
Bounce Entry: When price approaches the trendline and shows signs of reversal (e.g., a reversal candle, divergence, or support/resistance), enter in the direction of the trend with a logical stop-loss.
Breakout Entry: When price breaks through the trendline with strong momentum and a confirmation (such as a retest or break of structure), consider trading in the direction of the breakout.
🟣 Trendline-Based Risk Management
For bounce entries, the stop-loss is placed below the trendline or the last pivot low (in an uptrend).
For breakout entries, the stop-loss is set behind the breakout candle or the last structural level.
A broken trendline can also act as an exit signal from a trade.
🟣 Combining Trendlines with Other Tools (Confluence)
Trendlines gain much more strength when used alongside other analytical tools :
Horizontal support and resistance levels
Moving averages (such as EMA 50 or EMA 200)
Fibonacci retracement zones
Candlestick patterns (e.g., Engulfing, Pin Bar)
RSI or MACD divergences
Market structure breaks (BoS / ChoCH)
🔵 Settings
Pivot Period : This defines how sensitive the pivot detection is. A higher number means the algorithm will identify more significant pivot points, resulting in longer-term trendlines.
Alerts
Alert :
Enable or disable the entire alert system
Set a custom alert name
Choose how often alerts trigger (every time, once per bar, or on bar close)
Select the time zone for alert timestamps (e.g., UTC)
Each trendline type supports two alert types :
Break Alert : Triggered when price breaks the trendline
React Alert : Triggered when price reacts or bounces off the trendline
These alerts can be independently enabled or disabled for all trendline categories (Major/Minor, Internal/External, Up/Down).
Display :
For each of the eight trendline types, you can control :
Whether to show or hide the line
Whether to delete the previous line when a new one is drawn
Color, line style (solid, dashed, dotted), extension direction (e.g., right only), and width
Major lines are typically thicker and more opaque, while minor lines appear thinner and more transparent.
All settings are designed to give the user full control over the appearance, behavior, and alert system of the indicator, without requiring manual drawing or adjustments.
🔵 Conclusion
A trendline is more than just a line on the chart—it is a structural, strategic, and flexible tool in technical analysis that can serve as the foundation for understanding price behavior and making trading decisions. Whether in trending markets or during corrections, trendlines help traders identify market direction, key zones, and high-potential entry and exit points with precision.
The accuracy and effectiveness of a trendline depend on using structurally valid pivot points and adhering to proper market logic, rather than relying on guesswork or personal bias.
This indicator is built to solve that exact problem. It automatically detects and draws multiple types of trendlines based on actual price structure, separating them into Major/Minor and Internal/External categories, and respecting professional analytical principles such as pivot type, trend direction, and structural location.
HEMA Trend Levels [AlgoAlpha]OVERVIEW
This script plots two Hull-EMA (HEMA) curves to define a color-coded dynamic trend zone and generate context-aware breakout levels, allowing traders to easily visualize prevailing momentum and identify high-probability breakout retests. The script blends smoothed price tracking with conditional box plotting, delivering both trend-following and mean-reversion signals within one system. It is designed to be simple to read visually while offering nuanced trend shifts and test confirmations.
█ CONCEPTS
The Hull-EMA (HEMA) is a hybrid moving average combining the responsiveness of short EMAs with the smoothness of longer ones. It applies layered smoothing: first by subtracting a full EMA from a half-length EMA (doubling the short EMA's weight), and then by smoothing the result again with the square root of the original length. This process reduces lag while maintaining clarity in direction changes. In this script, two HEMAs—fast and slow—are used to define the trend structure and trigger events when they cross. These crossovers generate "trend shift boxes"—temporary support or resistance zones drawn immediately after trend transitions—to detect price retests in the new direction. When price cleanly retests these levels, the script marks them as confirmations with triangle symbols, helping traders isolate better continuation setups. Color-coded bars further enhance visual interpretation: bullish bars when price is above both HEMAs, bearish when below, and neutral (gray) when indecisive.
█ FEATURES
Bullish and bearish bar coloring based on price and HEMA alignment.
Box plotting at each crossover (bullish or bearish) to create short-term decision zones.
Real-time test detection: price must cleanly test and bounce from box levels to be considered valid.
Multiple alert conditions: crossover alerts, test alerts, and trend continuation alerts.
█ USAGE
Use this indicator on any time frame and asset. Adjust HEMA lengths to match your trading style—shorter lengths for scalping or intraday, longer for swing trading. The shaded area between HEMAs helps visually define the current trend. Watch for crossovers: a bullish crossover plots a green support box just below price, and a bearish one plots a red resistance box just above. These zones act as short-term decision points. When price returns to test a box and confirms with strong rejection (e.g., closes above for bullish or below for bearish), a triangle symbol is plotted. These tests can signal strong trend continuation. For traders looking for clean entries, combining the crossover with a successful retest improves reliability. Alerts can be enabled for all key signals: trend shift, test confirmations, and continuation conditions, making it suitable for automated setups or discretionary traders tracking multiple charts.
Ehlers Adaptive Trend Indicator [Alpha Extract]Ehlers Adaptive Trend Indicator

This powerful tool helps traders visualize trend strength, adaptive support/resistance levels, and momentum shifts across various market conditions.
🔶 CALCULATION
The indicator employs a sophisticated adaptive algorithm that responds to changing market conditions:
• Ehlers Filter : Calculates a weighted average based on momentum differences to create an adaptive trend baseline.
• Dynamic Bands : Volatility-adjusted bands that expand and contract based on recent price action.
• Trend Level : A dynamic support/resistance level that adapts to the current trend direction.
• Smoothed Volatility : Market volatility measured and smoothed to provide reliable band width.
Formula:
• Ehlers Basis = Weighted average of price, with weights determined by momentum differences
• Volatility = Standard deviation of price over Ehlers Length period
• Smoothed Volatility = EMA of volatility over Smoothing Length
• Upper Band = Ehlers Basis + Smoothed Volatility × Sensitivity
• Lower Band = Ehlers Basis - Smoothed Volatility × Sensitivity
• Trend Level = Adaptive support in uptrends, resistance in downtrends
🔶 DETAILS
Visual Features :
• Ehlers Basis Line (Yellow): The core adaptive trend reference that serves as the primary trend indicator.
• Trend Level Line (Dynamic Color): Changes between green (bullish) and red (bearish) based on the current trend state.
• Fill Areas : Transparent green fill during bullish trends and transparent red fill during bearish trends for clear visual identification.
• Bar Coloring : Optional price bar coloring that reflects the current trend direction for enhanced visualization.
Interpretation :
• **Bullish Signal**: Price crosses above the upper band, triggering a trend change with the Trend Level becoming dynamic support.
• **Bearish Signal**: Price drops below the lower band, confirming a trend change with the Trend Level becoming dynamic resistance.
• **Trend Continuation**: Trend Level rises in bullish markets and falls in bearish markets, providing adaptive trailing support/resistance.
🔶 EXAMPLES
The chart demonstrates:
• Bullish Trend Identification : When price breaks above the upper band, the indicator shifts to bullish mode with green trend level and fill.
• Bearish Trend Identification : When price falls below the lower band, the indicator shifts to bearish mode with red trend level and fill.
• Trend Persistence : Trend Level adapts to market movement, rising during uptrends to provide dynamic support and falling during downtrends to act as resistance.
Example Snapshots :
• During a strong uptrend, the Trend Level continuously adjusts upward, keeping traders in the trend while filtering out minor retracements.
• During trend reversals, clear color changes and Trend Level shifts provide early warning of potential direction changes.
🔶 SETTINGS
Customization Options :
• Ehlers Length (p1) (Default: 30): Controls the primary adaptive calculation period, balancing responsiveness with stability.
• Momentum Length (p2) (Default: 25): Determines the lag for momentum calculations used in the adaptive weighting.

Range Breakout Signals [AlgoAlpha]OVERVIEW
This script detects range-bound market conditions and breakout signals using a combination of volatility compression and volume imbalance analysis. It identifies zones where price consolidates within a defined range and highlights potential breakout points with visual markers. Traders can use this to spot market transitions from ranging to trending phases, aiding in decision-making for breakout strategies.
CONCEPTS
The script measures volatility by comparing the ratio of the simple moving average (SMA) of price movements to their median value. When volatility drops below a threshold, the script assumes a range-bound market. It then tracks the cumulative volume of buying and selling pressure to assess breakout strength. The approach is based on the idea that market consolidation often precedes strong moves, and volume distribution can provide clues on the breakout direction.
FEATURES
Range Detection : Uses a volatility filter to identify low-volatility zones and marks them on the chart with shaded boxes.
Volume Imbalance Analysis : Evaluates cumulative up and down volume over a confirmation period to assess directional bias.
Breakout Signals : When price exits a detected range, the script plots breakout markers. A ▲ symbol indicates a bullish breakout, and a ▼ symbol indicates a bearish breakout. Additional "+" markers indicate strong volume imbalance favoring the breakout direction.
Adaptive Timeframe Volume Analysis : The script dynamically adjusts its volume calculation based on the chart’s timeframe, ensuring reliable signal generation across different trading conditions.
Alerts : Notifies traders when a new range is detected or when a breakout occurs, allowing for automated monitoring.
USAGE
Traders can use this script to identify potential trade setups by entering positions when price breaks out of a detected range. For breakout confirmation, traders can look at volume imbalance cues—bullish breakouts with strong buying volume may indicate sustained moves, while weak volume breakouts may lead to false signals. This script is particularly useful for breakout traders, range traders seeking to fade breakouts, and those looking to automate trade alerts in volatile markets.
