Immediate Trend - VHXIMMEDIATE TREND - VULNERABLE_HUMAN_X
This indicator is used to identify the immediate trend in the market.
When a Short Term High (STH) is engulfed and closed above, we consider that as a bullish trend.
And Similarly, when a Short Term Low (STL) is engulfed and closed below, we consider that as a bullish trend.
STH - A candle that is higher than the one candle towards it's left and one candle towards it's right.
STL - A candle that is lower than the one candle towards it's left and one candle towards it's right.
HOW TO USE:
1. Do not take trades purely based on the immediate trend showcased by the indicator. Rather, use them as confluence with your trading strategy.
2. When you are expecting price to reverse at your point of interest (Denamd/Supply zone), this indicator can help you predict the reversal by showcasing the current trend.
3. Using this indicator you can travel the trend as long as there is a change of trend predicted by this indicator.
Trend
Gedhusek TrendFibonacciThis indicator is a trend filter based on fibonacci retracement levels
How to read:
- There are three filled zones --> red, yellow and green
- If the price is inside of red zone, there is a downtrend on the market
- If the price is inside the yellow zone, there is a sideways trend on the market
- If the price is inside the green zone, there is a uptrend on the market
- Also, candles are going to have a corresponding color based on the current trend
Calculations of the indicator:
1. Calculate distance between maximal and minimal price over the last "x" bars (choose value for "x" in inputs menu under the "Analysis period")
2. Use this distance for calculating two retracement levels (choose retracement levels in inputs menu)
3. These two retracement levels create an area of what is going to be considered as sideways market
Example:
- Lets say we chose Analysis period of 100, Lower Fibonacci Level as 0.382 and Upper Fibonacci Level as 0.618
- Maximum price over the last 100 bars was of 120 and minimum price was 20. That leaves us with the difference of 100 points
- Now we calculate the fibonacci levels --> 100*0.382 = 38.2 and 100*0.618 = 61.8
- The next step is to add the levels to the lowest price point --> 20 + 38.2 = 58.2 and 20 + 61.8 = 81.8
- And now we have our zones. If the price is going to be below the lower fibonacci level (in this case 58.2), we consider it as a bearish trend. If the price is between those fibonacci levels (58.2 and 81.8), we consider it as a sideways trend. And if the price is above the upper fibonacci level (81.8), we consider it as a bullish trend.
Inputs:
- Analysis period --> number of bars within which the system is going to look for max and min price
- Lower Fibonacci Level --> Choose from options and must be lower or the same as "Upper Fibonacci Level"
- Upper Fibonacci Level --> Choose from options and must be higher or the same as "Lower Fibonacci Level"
- Show Filling --> whether you wish to fill the areas with color
- Change Candle Color --> whether you wish to change the color of candles based on current trend.
[-_-] Volatility Calibrated ATRDescription:
An indicator based on ATR adjusted for volatility of the market. It uses Heikin Ashi data to find short and long opportunities and displays a dynamic stop loss level. Additionally, it has alerts for when the trend changes (which is an entry signal).
How it works:
It works by dynamically calculating the Period for ATR which depends on current volatility level that is calculated by a function that uses Standard Deviation of price. ATR is then smoothed by Weighted Moving Average and multiplied by ATR Factor, resulting in a plot that changes its colour to red when we're in a downtrend and green when in an uptrend. This plot should be used as a dynamic Stop Loss level. Trend change is determined by price crossing the dynamic Stop Loss level. The squared red and green labels appear when the trend changes, and should be used as Entry signals.
Parameters:
- Source -> data used for calculations
- ATR Factor -> higher values produce less noise and longer trends, lower values give more signals
RSItrendRSItrend is a trend indicator based on the standard RSI.
The logic of building the indicator: We build a channel based on the RSI extremes. The exit of the RSI from the channel up is the beginning of the uptrend, the exit of the RSI from the channel down is the beginning of the downtrend. In the downtrend, the candles are colored blue, in the uptrend - orange.
Possible use of the indicator:
I recommend using it with heiken ashi
On small timeframes, you can trade using extremes that are easy to determine by the indicator, as shown in the example given.
On the higher timeframes above the day, you can simply buy an orange bar, sell a blue one. Add a few money management techniques and make a profit.
Gedhusek UltraTrendThis indicator serves a purpose of a trend recognizer. It is able to tell you whether the market is bullish, bearish or if the price goes sideways.
Process of determining the trend:
- The indicator uses 3 moving averages to determine the trend
- For each of these averages, there is calculated value change over a certain period. So, if the value of Moving average was 100 and now it is 110, the change is going to be +10
- After these calculations are done, all three of these values are summed up into one
- Based on this value we can determine whether the overall sentiment is bullish or bearish (if the value is larger than 0, the sentiment is bullish and if it is bellow 0, it is bearish)
- One more metric is used when determining the overall trend, and that is the ATR indicator. This indicator represents a certain movement threshold that has to be surpassed in order to have a valid trend
- So all of this can be summed up into this -> if the summed up value of the value shift of 3 moving averages over certain period is larger than ATR value for certain period, the trend is considered as bullish and if this summed up value is lower than ATR value *-1, the trend is considered as bearish. In case the summed value is smaller than ATR value and larger than ATR value *-1, there is no trend.
-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
How to use the Indicator:
- The indicator should be used as a tool for giving you a generic feel about the current trend
- It is not a signal providing system
- It can be adjusted for any trading style by changing the Periods in input menu. (As the values are lower, it will give you more short time trend and vice versa)
- It is a great tool to combine with any trend following strategy
-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Which markets and TimeFrame:
- The UltraTrend Indicator works on all of the markets and all of the TF
- I usually use it on 15min and 1H TF, but that is solely my preference
-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Inputs:
First Period = Period of the first MA
Second Period = Period of the second MA
Third Period = Period of the third MA
ATR Period = Period of the ATR
Ticker vs IndexI was exploring a simple idea how I can visualize the ticker performance against the underlying Index (or any other ticker) performance.
how it works:
When the line is moving up (blue zone), the ticker is performing better than the underlying index (e.g. SPX)(configurable).
When the line is moving down (red zone), the ticker is performing worse than the underlying index.
How to use it:
Use as confirmation always in conjunction with other (main) indicators, avoid "buy" when indicator is in the red zone
Also, crossing over the zero line is often an indication for an upcoming upward move
Try to different SMA length - default is 20 but 10 was often showing better results
(No financial advise, for testing purposes only)
True Accumulation/Distribution (TG fork)An accumulation/distribution indicator that works better against gaps and with trend coloring.
Accumulation/Distribution was developed by Marc Chaikin to provide insight into strength of a trend by measuring flow of buy and sell volume .
The fact that A/D only factors current period's range for calculating the volume multiplier causes problem with price gaps. They are ignored or even misinterpreted.
True Accumulation/Distribution solves the problem by using True Range instead of only relying on current period's high and low.
Most of the time, True A/D reverts to producing the same values as the original A/D. The difference between True A/D and original A/D can be better seen when a gap has occurred, True A/D has handles it better than Accumulation/Distribution which a bearish close in period's range cause it to misinterpret the strong buy pressure as sell volume
The Moving Average Cloud is simply the filling between the moving average and the True A/D. This feature was inspired by D7R ACC/DIST closed-source indicator, kudos to D7R for making such neat visual indicators (but unfortunately all closed source!).
This indicator was made to extend the original work by adding MTF support and a moving average cloud and coloring.

Musashi_Katana=== Musashi-Katana ===
This tool was designed to fit my particular trading style and personal theories about the "Alchemy of the markets" and ''Harmonic Structure'.
Context
When following a Technical approach to to surf the markets, there are teachings that must be understood before reaching a confort-zone, this usually happen the possible worst way by constant experimentation, it hurts.
Here few technical hints:
- Align High timeframes with lower timeframes:
This simple concept relax a lot complexity of finding of a trend bias. Musashi-Katana allows you to use technical indicator corresponding to specific timeframes, like daily weekly or yearly. They wont change when you change the chart's timeframe, its very useful as you know where you're standing in the long term, Its quite relaxing.
- Use volume:
The constant usage of volume will allow you to sync with the market's breathing. This shows you the mass of money flowing into and out of the market, is key if you want to understand momentum. This tool can help here, as it have multi-period vwaps. You can use yearly, monthly for swing trading, and even weekly if you enjoy scalping.
Useful stuff:
- You have access to baselines, AMA and Kijun-sen with the possibility of adding ATR bands.
- AMAs come as two lines strategies for different approaches, fast medium or slow.
- You can experiment with normal and multi timeframe moving averages and other trend tools.
Final Note
If used correctly Musashi-Katana is a very powerful tool, which makes no sense as there is no correct usage. Don't add everything at the same time, experiment, combine stuff, every market is different.
Backtest every possible strategy before using it, see what works and doesn't. This gives you a lot of peace, specially while you're at the tip of the spear surfing the markets
--> I personally use this in combination with 'Musashi_Slasher (Mometum+Volatility)', as it gives me volatility and momentum in a very precise way.
Band of Filtered RS by Mustafa ÖZVERBand of Filtered RS by Mustafa ÖZVER
This code shows a range (max-min values) price may get if we get strong movements. These values is based on RSI (Relative Strange Index). And also these are calculated using RSI, if we get trades to make rsi is equal to 25 (or rsi down limit) or 75 (rsi up limit) or any value you set, how much will price value get? This code calculate these and shows these to you on graph.
This price are between these band limits because we expect cross reaction to hard movements on price.
For scalping, we can use these values as
long signal when price under down limit,
short signal when price over up limit,
But only these values can not guarantee good results for trading. BE CAREFUL
Adaptive Fisherized Trend Intensity Index Introduction
Here, I modified the script "Trend Intensity Index" (TII) of @everyget.
TTI was developed by M.H. Pee, who also published other trend analysis indicators like the Trend Trigger/Continuation Factor
It helps to determine how strong the current trend is.
The stronger the trend, the higher the chance the price may continue moving in the current direction.
Features
Adaptive mode (based on Ehlers dominant cycle determination) => automatically determines the length
Inverse Fisher Transform => gives sharper signals
Customizable MA Types => discover the impact of different ma bases
Hann Window and NET smoothing => state-of-the-art smoothing
Trend Visualization => shows you the up/down/side trend
Usage
This indicator here offers a perfect trend filtering system. It is capable of up/down/side trend detection.
There are a lot of trend indicators which don't respect sidetrends, which makes this indicator pretty useful.
A lot of traders use trend-following trading systems.
A trader will usually make his/her entry in the market during a strong trend and ride it, until the TII provides an indication of a reversal.
For mean-revertive trading systems, you could use TII to just trade in side trend.
A lot of mean-revertive signal emitters like Bollinger Bands or RSI work most of the times better in side trend.
Furthermore, every timeframe could be used, but higher timeframes have more impact because trends are stronger there.
Signals
Green zone (Top) => Etablished bullish trend
"Peachy" Zone (Middle) => Sidetrend/flat market
Red Zone (Bottom) => Etablished bearish trend
Enjoy guys!

Trend & atr day & calcHi!
Why for what and how in this script?
At the time of publication the script consists of three modules, it may increase in the future.
1. Bottom left corner : daytime ATR module
(idea and basis of the author's script - ???)
- The size of the daily ATR based on 14 bars;
- intraday ATR progress;
- colour indication of the progress status, for easier visual perception (green < 70%, yellow 70-90 and red over 90% of ATR)
By evaluating the progress of the daily ATR, it is possible to suggest and expedient to enter/exit/hold a trade.
2. Top right: trend module
The trend is calculated based on Bill Williams' alligator indicator
- trend status on specified timeframes for the current ticker;
- colour indication for visual perception (green - growing trend, yellow - alligator is sleeping, red - downtrend)
Do not forget that the alligator is based on moving averages with the resulting consequences.
Its purpose is to assess the state of the trend on other ticker TFs, without additional actions (switching to another screen or TF)
3. In the bottom left corner - risk and position calculator
(based on an idea of the risk calculator by @andrei.bunulu)
It helps to determine the advisability of entering the trade and also what size position to enter into the trade, within money management strategy chosen.
- The calculator works in two directions: long deal and short deal (short deal calculation is enabled by check-box in settings)
- two calculation methods:
a. based on the set stop loss % (default is 0.3%), in this mode the stop and takeout level is automatically calculated (default is 1 / 3).
b. by entering the desired price levels (entry, stop and take profit points)
To make this work correctly please do not forget to choose the type of calculation (% or price) in the settings, and the currency symbol (for visual representation in the results).
The calculator can take into account the set commissions and spreads.
When hovering over the module - tooltips are displayed.
Each module can be enabled / disabled in the settings.
The size and arrangement of the modules is made for joint use with the script - "Abnormal Bar".
/// а по-русски это так ///
Привет!
Зачем для чего и как в этом скрипте?
На момент публикации скрипт состоит из трех модулей, возможно в будущем увеличится.
1. В левом нижнем углу : модуль дневного ATR
(идея и основа скрипт автора - ???)
- размер дневной ATR на основании 14 баров;
- прогресс ATR внутри дня;
- цветовая индикация состояния прогресса, для более простого визуального восприятия (зеленый < 70%, желтый 70-90 и красный более 90% ATR)
Оценивая прогресс дневного ATR, можно предположить и целесообразности входа / выхода / удержания из сделки.
2. В правом верхнем углу: модуль тренда
Тренд рассчитывается на основе индикатора - аллигатор Билла Вильямса
- состояние тренда на указанных таймфреймах для текущего тикера;
- цветовая индикация для визуального восприятия (зеленый - растущий тренд, желтый - аллигатор спит, красный - нисходящий тренд)
Не забываем, что аллигатор построен на основе скользящих средних с вытекающими последствиями.
Назначение - оценить состояние тренда на других ТФ тикера, без дополнительных действий (переключения на другой экран или ТФ)
3. В нижнем левом углу - калькулятор рисков и позиции
(на основе идеи калькулятора аuthor: @andrei.bunulu)
Помогает определить целесообразность входа в сделку, а также каким размером позиции входить в сделку, в рамках выбранной стратегии мани менеджмента.
- калькулятор работает в два направления: длинная и короткая сделка (расчет по короткой включается в настройках чек-боксом)
- два варианта расчета:
а. на основании установленного % стоп лосса (по-умолчанию 0,3%), при этом режиме происходит автоматический расчет уровня стопа и тейка (по умолчанию 1 / 3).
b. путем ввода данных желаемых уровней цены (точки входа, стопа и тейк профита)
Для корректной работы не забываем в настройках выбирать тип расчета (% или цена), а также символ валюты (для визуального отображения в итогах).
Калькулятор может учитывать установленный размер комиссий и спреда.
При наведении на модуль - отображаются подсказки.
Каждый модуль можно включить / выключить в настройках.
Размер и расположение модулей сделано для совместного использования со скриптом - "Abnormal Bar"

Generalized Bollinger Bands %B And Bandwidth (Tartigradia)Bollinger Band is simply a representation of the rolling average of price and its standard deviation around the average (called the "basis").
This indicator generalizes the Bollinger Band by implementing many different equations to calculate the Bollinger Bands beyond the standard deviation and sma, and then plot the %B (where the current price falls inside the Bollinger Band), Bandwidth (size of the Bollinger Band) as well as the Bollinger Band itself and a reproduction of the OHLC price candles in a separate pane.
Whereas other Bollinger Bands indicators often just change the basis but not the stdev calculation, the correct way to change the basis is to also change it inside the stdev calculation.
Advanced features such as temporal discounting (ie, newer bars can have more weights), median absolute deviation and multiple sigma bands (eg, 3-sigma) are available.
Up to 3 different Bollinger Bands can be displayed, and the background can be highlighted when price is overbought/oversold (beyond the Bollinger Band of choice). Tip: BB3, which is the bollinger band with standard deviation of 3, which represents 99% of observed values in the lookback period, is a good choice to highlight overbought/oversold conditions.
Three "Sentiment Bars" are provided to see at a glance the sentiments on the price action relative to the Bollinger Bands as reflected by the %B value.
Usage:
Use the %B as a measure of sentiment: bullish if > 0.5, bearish if < 0.5. You can use the Sentiment Bars at the bottom for a quick reference: aqua if bullish, red if bearish, gray if undefined (too close to the middle line).
Use the bandwidth as a measure of volatility: higher is more volatile, lower is less.
When overbought, it can be a good time to sell/short. Use a higher Bollinger Band Multiplier such as 3 or more to reduce false positives.
When oversold, it can be a good time to buy/long. Use a higher Bollinger Band Multiplier such as 3 or more to reduce false positives.
Consider setting a much tighter lookback period of 4 as recommended in backtested works (en.wikipedia.org), use zlma instead of sma, and finally set a higher timeframe for the Bollinger Bands than the one you are currently studying. Then, the Bollinger Bands can help in detecting overbought and oversold regions (price going "out of bands").
Note that I tried to automate the setting of a higher timeframe, but for some reason the output is different when I manually do it using request.security() than when it's in indicator(timeframe=""). If someone has any suggestion as to why it happens, please let me know! (You can try it for yourself by uncommenting the auto_timeframe parameter line).
Change of VolatilityOVERVIEW
The Change of Volatility indicator is a technical indicator that gauges the amount of volatility currently present in the market. The purpose of this indicator is to filter out with-trend signals during ranging/non-trending/consolidating conditions.
CONCEPTS
This indicator assists traders in capitalizing on the assumption that trends are more likely to start during periods of high volatility compared to periods of low volatility . This is because high volatility indicates that there are bigger players currently in the market, which is necessary to begin a sustained trending move.
So, to determine whether the current volatility in the market is low, the indicator will grey out all the areas on the chart whose short term standard deviation of volatility is lower than the long term standard deviation of volatility.
If the short term standard deviation of volatility is above the long term standard deviation of volatility, the current volatility in the market is considered high. This would the ideal time to enter a trending trade due to the assumption that trends are more likely to start during these high-volatility periods.
HOW DO I READ THIS INDICATOR
When the histogram is grey, don't take any trend trades since the current volatility is less than the usual volatility experienced in the market.
When the histogram is green, take all valid with-trend trades since the current volatility is greater than the usual volatility experienced in the market.
Q-TrendQ-Trend is an multipurpose indicatorm that can be used for swing- and trend-trading equally on any timeframe (non-volatile markets are better for this thing).
Settings:
Trend period - used to calculate trend line in the special moments(will explain below);
ATR Multiplier - changes sensitivity. The higher the multiplier = the more sensitive it is.
Also option to smooth source data (helps get cleaner signals, as always).
How to use?
Signals are given on the chart. Also ou can use trend line as S/R line.
The idea behind:
Terms:
SRС = Source
TL = trend line;
MP = ATR multiplier;
ATR = ATR :)
TL = (highest of source P-bars back + lowest of source P-bars back) / 2
Epsilon = MP * ATR
I was thinking for a week about combining volatility and relation between highest and lowest price point. That why I called indicator Q-Trend = Quantitative Trend , as I was trying to think about price in a mathematical way.
Okay, time to go philosophical:
1) TL is shows good price trend, but as it is slow enough and not enough informative, we need add additional conditions to produce signals.
2) Okay, so what can we add as conditions? We need to take volatility into account, as it is crucial in the moments of market uncertainty. So let's use ATR (Average True Range) somehow. My idea is that if SRC breaks TL + ATR , then it means that there will be upmove and we update our TL . Analogically for SRC breaking TL - ATR (breaks are crosses of TL +- ATR lines) .
Conclusion:
- if SRC breaks TL + ATR , it is a BUY signal and update of trend line;
- if SRC breaks TL - ATR , it is a SELL signal and update of trend line;
I think that such indicator already exisits on TradingView, as I've already saw something similar, but long ago, so please don't report, if such thing already exists.
But if not, then I hope, that you will gain some profits with Q-Trend :)
I will continue my work on this thing, so stay tuned.
Trade with your own risks and have your profits!
Wish you all the best!

Relative Bi-Directional Volatility RangeThe basic math behind this Indicator is very similar to the math behind the Relative Strength Index without using a standard deviation as used for the Relative Volatility Index. The Volatility Range is calculated by utilizing the highs and lows. However not in the same way as in the Relative Volatility Index. This approach leads to different values, but the overall result clearly reveals the intrinsic Volatility of the chart, so the user can be aware, when something fundamentally is going on behind the scenes. If the Volatility rises on positive and negative range (-100 to 100) it implies that something fundamental is changing.
An advantage of using this kind of calculation is the possibility of separating the data into positive (buy pressure) and negative (sell pressure) components. The bi-directional character shows a slightly overhang in one of the directions, which can be used to detect a trend. A Moving Average of the users choice shell smoothen the overhang of the Relative Bi-Directional Volatility and show a trend direction. Similar to the math of the Relative Strength Index as standard a Relative Moving Average is preferred. If the Moving Average is in the positive range (0 to 100) it indicates a bullish trend, else if the Moving Average is in the negative range (0 to -100) it indicates a bearish trend. External Indicators can use a provided Trend Shift Signal which switches from 0 to 1, if the trend becomes bullish or from 0 to -1, if the trend becomes bearish.
The user should know, that in this Indicator the starting point of the Moving Averages always begins at the first bar, because the starting progress is approximated appropriately. Most Moving Averages require a minimum number of bars to be calculated, which is chosen with the Moving Average Length. In this cases the length used will be automatically reduced in the background until the number of bars is sufficient to match the chosen length. So if data history is very short, the Indicator can be used never the less as good as possible.
It is feasible to switch the Indicator on a higher timeframe, while staying in a lower timeframe on the chart. This can be useful for making the indication cleaner, if the Moving Average is to choppy and shows too many false signals. On the other hand the benefit of a higher timeframe (or a higher Moving Average Length) is paid with higher latency of the signaling. So the user has to decide what the best setting in his case is.
This Indicator can be used with all kinds of charts. Even charts with percentage or negative values should work fine.
Support & Resistance Trendlines with PP + Fib. Channel█ Support & Resistance Trendlines with Pivot Points + Fibonacci Channel
This script automatically draw support and resistance trend lines based on pivot points and add a fibonacci channel.
It will show potential patterns with the help of support and resistance lines as well as breakout target and pullback entry with the fibonacci extension and retracement levels.
It is based on atolelole's script, I only made it more configurable so please check out his script.
I added the possibility to change values and add additional retracement and extension levels.
I also made it customizable with the possibility to change lines color, width and style.
Keltner Channel Volatility FilterOVERVIEW
The Keltner Channel Volatility Filter indicator is a technical indicator that gauges the amount of volatility currently present in the market. The purpose of this indicator is to filter out with-trend signals during ranging/non-trending/consolidating conditions.
CONCEPTS
This indicator assists traders in capitalizing on the assumption that trends are more likely to start during periods of high volatility compared to periods of low volatility . This is because high volatility indicates that there are bigger players currently in the market, which is necessary to begin a sustained trending move.
So, to determine whether the current volatility in the market is low, the KCVF will grey out all bars whose average price is within the Keltner Channels.
If the average price breaks out of the Keltner Channels , it is reasonable to assume we are in a high-volatility period. Thus, this is the ideal time to enter a trending trade due to the assumption that trends are more likely to start during these high-volatility periods.
HOW DO I READ THIS INDICATOR
When the candles are greyed out, don't take any trend trades since the current volatility is less than the usual volatility experienced in the market.
When the candles aren't greyed out, take all valid with-trend trades since the current volatility is greater than the usual volatility experienced in the market.
Zig Zag+ (Macro + Internal Structure Tool)ZigZag+ (Macro + Internal Structure Tool)
ZigZag+ is a simple tool that helps traders to clearly identify and differentiate between macro and internal market structure, to help you keep your bearings of where you are currently in the overall picture.
It is especially difficult to keep your bearings within the larger structural trend when trading the lower timeframes, where for example, a bearish structural trend on a lower timeframe may simply be a retracement of an overall bullish structural trend on a higher timeframe. This indicator primarily aims to help traders maintain awareness of where they are in relationship to the higher timeframe / 'macro' structural trend, and their most significant swing point highs and lows.
The features of this indicator include:
- 2x Zig Zag lines drawn automatically onto your chart. One which has a longer length than the other, which can be used to help identify and differentiate the larger price swings from the smaller price swings found within it. Enabled by default.
- Customisable Zig Zag line color & width settings to help clearly differentiate the higher timeframe 'macro structure' apart from the lower timeframe 'internal structure' within it, enabling it to be tailored to suit your chart colour theme and personal preference.
- Customisable individual length settings for the 2x Zig Zag lines, to allow the fine tuning of each line to any timeframe and asset. By default one lines length is set to a higher value than the other, to illustrate a macro structure (higher length value) as well as the 'internal structure' (lower value length), seen within the larger macro structure.
- Up to a maximum of 500 lines can be drawn meaning you can zoom out considerably, and view historical price action with both Zig Zag lines continuing to print.
- Custom alerts for identifying candlesticks that can offer optimal entries where they are found within valid price markups or markdowns that are already underway. Further details can be found within the tooltips for these signals.
Note: The above list of features are accurate at the time of publishing, but may be updated or added to in future.
Structure
Understanding structure is arguably the foundation of all trading strategies, and therefore very important to understand where you are exactly in the bigger picture, since it can help identify levels at which there is a higher probability of price moving either upward or downward at a given point. Structural trend refers to the typical way that price tends to move in any given trending market, identified by the continuation of higher highs and higher lows in a typical bullish trending market, and lower highs and lower lows in a bearish trending market.
During other times price may not be trending in this way, for example when it is undergoing accumulation or distribution phases, where the consistent higher high & lower low / lower high and lower low patterns will not be evident.
What is Macro Structure?
Macro trend structure refers to the structural trend seen on higher timeframe charts.
What is Internal Structure?
Internal trend structure refers to the structural trend seen on lower timeframe charts, which is found within the higher timeframe structure.

Swing RibbonA configurable fast and slow moving average combined to help visualize the current trend and potential changes in trend.
Allows for specifying a fixed set of minutes or days instead of just bars so that the visualization is similar when changing time-frames.
Relatively Good Adviser This indicator uses the RSI as the backbone of an extremely sensitive two-indicator trend following system.
This indicator is unique in that it uses the RSI as an anchor to attempt to solve for color where there is divergence nearby.
SQueezeVergenceThis is my SQueezeVergence indicator. It fires Buy and Sell signals based on squeeze momentum and trend. **It also creates Bull and Bear signals based on MACD divergence which should only be used as areas of support and resistance being as these signals repaint based on a 5 candle look back of pivots.** All settings are editable for better use. The default settings are what I use on the 1 Minute chart of ES to scalp. This is a simple indicator to help me get alerts on when I need to scalp. The divergence signals work well for areas of significance. I like to watch for breaks of these levels along with support and resistance. I hope this helps.
Unified Composite Index [UCI] [KuraiBlu] [LazyBear]The purpose of this indicator is to combine the four basic types of indicators (Trend, Volatility, Momentum and Volume) to create a singular, composite index in order to provide a more holistic means of observing potential changes within the market, known as the Unified Composite Index . The indicators used in this index are as follows:
Trend - Trend Composite Index
Volatility - Bollinger Bands %b
Momentum - Relative Strength Index
Volume - Money Flow Index
The average price source can’t be altered as I’ve made it an average between ((open + close) / 2) and ((high + low) / 2).
The best way to use this is by observing several of the indicators at once in conjunction with the average, rather than simply using the average produced to determine the right moment to enter, or exit a trade by itself. I've found when one indicator goes way out of bounds relative to the other three (and subsequently, the average array), then it presents a good buying, or selling opportunity.
Some adjustments were made to several of the indicators in order to standardize them on a scale of 1-100 so that they could better accommodate the average array that was finally produced. Thanks to LazyBear for letting me strip down the WaveTrend Oscillator.
