Mansfield Relative Strength Trend'Stan Weinstein' developed an indicator called Relative Strength which compares the relative strength of a stock with the associated index (in this case the S&P 500).
This indicator combines the relative strength with Weinstein's stage analysis.
The indiacator was made for weekly stock charts only!
BUY & HOLD Conditions (green):
1. Mansfield Relative Strength is above the zero line
2. Price is above the Simple Moving Average (30)
3. Simple Moving Average (30) is rising
SELL & HOLD Conditions (red):
1. Mansfield Relative Strength is below the zero line
2. Price is below the Simple Moving Average (30)
3. Simple Moving Average (30) is falling
It is recommended to end the trade when the trend changes.
Default index is S&P 500, but you can change the index in the settings if you want.
Please always remember, there is no holy grail indicator!
Trendfollowing
ElderImpulseSystemWhat is the impulse system ?
The impulse system is a censorship trading system developed by Alexander Elder, and explained in his book New trading for a living . Its meant is to allow or to prohibit a trade. Also, it can be used to find when a trend start to weaken.
This script is an implementation of this system using a TradingView indicator.
How does it work
It's based on
The slope of a fast EMA , which is the inertia of the price.
The slope of the MACD , which is the power of the price.
If fast EMA and MACD are rising, candle is green.
If fast EMA and MACD are declining, candle is red.
Otherwise candle is gray.
How to use it
Use your own trading system to setup your trading plan, then use the impulse system to see if your trade is allowed or not.
If candle is green no short is allowed (either buy or stay aside).
If candle is red no buy is allowed (either short or stay aside).
The impulse system should be used in addition to an other system. Don't forget to check on differents times frames (see triple screen trading section of Elder's book). Don't forget that it's a censorship system, don't go against the censor.
ZTrendPick Bottoms and Tops of a trend with ZTrend indicator. Use this indicator in multi frame for superb results.
If you are a Short Term trader, then use 2 hourly and Daily timeframe combination.
So after a downtrend, buy when 2 hourly candle turns green and wait until Daily candle also turns Green. Exit when 2 hourly candle turns red.
Ride the trend and do not exit until the 2 hourly candle turns Red.
When 2 consecutive candle body become thin, means end of a trend is near. Therefore either reduce the position or hedge.
Discipline is the key, therefore exit on the indication and do not wait in hope of marking turning your side.
Big Snapper Alerts R2.0 by JustUncleLThis is a diversified Binary Option or Scalping Alert indicator originally designed for lower Time Frame Trend or Swing trading. Although you will find it a useful tool for higher time frames as well.
The Alerts are generated by the changing direction of the ColouredMA (HullMA by default), you then have the choice of selecting the Directional filtering on these signals or a Bollinger swing reversal filter.
The filters include:
Type 1 - The three MAs (EMAs 21,55,89 by default) in various combinations or by themselves. When only one directional MA selected then direction filter is given by ColouredMA above(up)/below(down) selected MA. If more than one MA selected the direction is given by MAs being in correct order for trend direction.
Type 2 - The SuperTrend direction is used to filter ColouredMA signals.
Type 3 - Bollinger Band Outside In is used to filter ColouredMA for swing reversals.
Type 4 - No directional filtering, all signals from the ColouredMA are shown.
Notes:
Each Type can be combined with another type to form more complex filtration.
Alerts can also be disabled completely if you just want one indicator with one colouredMA and/or 3xMAs and/or Bollinger Bands and/or SuperTrend painted on the chart.
Warning:
Be aware that combining Bollinger OutsideIn swing filter and a directional filter can be counter productive as they are opposites. So careful consideration is needed when combining Bollinger OutsideIn with any of the directional filters.
Hints:
For Binary Options try ColouredMA = HullMA(13) or HullMA(8) with Type 2 or 3 Filter.
When using Trend filters SuperTrend and/or 3xMA Trend, you will find if price reverses and breaks back through the Big Fat Signal line, then this can be a good reversal trade.
Some explanation about the what Hull Moving average and ideas of how the generated in Big Snapper can be used:

MA ExtensionThis indicator measures the vertical distance form the current close to the MA of your choice. I find that it does not work best as an oscillator, but it works well for providing early signals for taking profits when trend continuating. For example, if you go short due to a retracement to the MA (of your choice) take profits when a bearish trendline is broken (signalling the start of a bullish correction) that corresponds to the highs of the chart. The logic behind this indicator is that the breakouts of trendlines of an assets difference from an MA will precede corresponding breakouts of trendlines drawn on raw price. Kind of like Momentum, except it takes trend into account. Momentum has the same leading feature when it comes to drawing trendlines , but trendlines will be harder to draw due to the Momentum indicators oscillatory behavior.
RSI based trend follower
I'm a fan of "less is more". This indicator doesn't mess up your chart with lines, symbols, moving averages or such; it doesn't even add another oscillator in a separate window, letting you focus only on what is most important: price action. It will silently do its job by plotting an arrow (upward arrow for long triggers and downward arrow for short triggers).
It works really great with strong trending markets on higher time frames, so it gives its best on Stocks on a daily/weekly frame; consider it a long term trading indicator.
MA Ribbon R2 by JustUncleLThis indicator plots and colour codes a ribbon between two moving averages. The colour of the ribbon changes with trend direction: when price in uptrend ribbon colour is green; when price in downtrend ribbon colour is red.
Options Available:
1) You can select between 11 different types of moving averages, each MA line can be a different type.
2) Option to display coloured Candles around the Ribbon, the colouring uses the Grab candles colour scheme:
Lime = Bull candle closed above Ribbon.
Green = Bear candle closed above Ribbon.
Red = Bull candle closed below Ribbon.
DarkRed = Bear candle closed below Ribbon.
Aqua = Bull candle closed inside Ribbon.
Blue = Bear candle closed inside Ribbon.
3) Option to base the candles on a higher time frame (HFT), this performed by increasing the MA length to create equivalent lengths from the HFT. So no re-painting.
NOTE: The script will time out if the MA lengths get too long after resizing.
Currency Relative Strengths V.2 [GM]Version 2 Updates
Speed has been increased by ~7X
Highest and lowest pairs now highlighted using brighter colors
Re-ordered pairs from highest to lowest 'flight to risk' rating
I created this tool for the purpose of determining strongest and weakest currencies over different periods of time. Each major currency is compared to the field of other majors and its average change is measured over a predetermined period of time. The result is displayed as a percentage. I use it for trend following but it can also be used to fade exhaustion.

Gleeson Trend Tracker (GTT) IndicatorComprehensive Trend Trading System Indicator made up of the four components to help you successfully trade market trends:
Entry Signals (Green & Red Arrows)
The entry arrows indicate entry conditions are present. Green for long entries and red for short entries. If you already in position in the direction of an entry signal, ignore it. Switch to position maintenance mode for that market once trading a market.
Current Trend Status Channels (Red/Green Overlay)
The channel overlay is intended to indicate whether the market has recently trended up/down. Green if moving higher, Red if moving Lower. Channels make it easier to visualise current & previous price trajectory.
On Close Stop Loss (OCSL) / Price Average (40 MA) Blue line
This acts both as the "line in the sand" in relation to trend direction but also importantly as your (OCSL) or sometimes also known as mental stop. If price closes beyond this line in the opposite direction to your position, exit the position. It's important to wait for price to close (this methodology works best on weekly charts so make entry & exit decisions when the market is closed). This method works best if you risk 1% per trade using the distance from entry price to the OCSL as your pre-defined risk, back-analysis confirms this.
Hard Stop Loss Red line
This line is your circuit breaker intended to protect your capital from sudden adverse moves. This line serves as the price for your fixed or hard stop loss point that should be entered with the order. The formula behind this line is risk * 2 (so 2% if you risk 1% between entry price and OCSL). HSL is your safety net, always use it.
Some other advice on how to trade this methodology:
Analysis Sunday, entries & exits Monday (so you can also have a life)
Do not pyramid with this system, it works best with individual entries spread across a range of markets including FX, Indices, Commodities and Interest Rates.
Risk only 1% per trade
This methodology works best over weekly/monthly charts. You want to capture moves that last weeks/months/years. I would not advise day trading this system.

Good Luck!

TREND barcolorsThe Donchian values are basically from Ed Sekoytas original statistical run, that gave the values 30 & 120 (aren't as relevant today, but still packs a punch).
The idea of this code is just to take that 30, add a very simple inset of it, with ATR, and color code the bar Green or Red to indicate the direction of the trend. When a new break of the 120 line, (thick line) higher or lower, it typically indicates a bigger bias towards the trend.
It's my first publish, and so a very simple easy to understand system.
