Dynamic S/R Levels: Edge FinderOverview
The Dynamic S/R Levels: Edge Finder indicator is designed to identify dynamic support and resistance levels based on historical price action. It uses a combination of price extremes (highs and lows) over user-defined lookback periods, weighted moving averages (WMAs), and touch-count analysis to provide actionable insights into key market levels.
This tool is ideal for traders who want to:
Identify dynamic support and resistance zones.
Understand the strength of these levels based on price touches.
Make informed decisions using clear, adaptive levels.
How It Works
Dynamic Levels Calculation:
The indicator calculates dynamic support levels using the lowest lows and dynamic resistance levels using the highest highs over user-defined lookback periods (e.g., 20, 40, 60 bars, etc.).
These levels are updated dynamically as new price data becomes available.
Touch Count Analysis:
The indicator counts how many times the price has touched or come close to each support/resistance level within the lookback period.
Levels with more touches are considered stronger and are highlighted accordingly.
Weighted Moving Averages (WMAs):
The indicator uses 50-period and 100-period WMAs to identify the closest support/resistance levels to the current trend.
Levels near these WMAs are given additional weight, as they are more likely to act as significant barriers.
Level Merging:
If two support or resistance levels are too close to each other (based on the minimum distance percentage), the weaker level (with fewer touches) is removed to avoid clutter.
Visualization:
Support levels are displayed as dashed red lines, and resistance levels are displayed as dashed blue lines.
Each level is labeled with its corresponding touch count, allowing traders to quickly assess its strength.
How to Interpret the Indicator
Strong Support/Resistance Levels:
Levels with higher touch counts (e.g., 5, 10, or more) are considered stronger and are more likely to hold in the future.
Use these levels to plan entries, exits, or stop-loss placements.
Proximity to WMAs:
Levels closest to the 50-period or 100-period WMA are more significant, especially in trending markets.
These levels often act as dynamic barriers where price reactions are more likely.
Breakouts and Rejections:
If the price breaks through a strong resistance level, it may indicate a potential bullish trend.
If the price rejects a strong support level, it may indicate a potential bearish trend.
Always confirm breakouts or rejections with additional analysis (e.g., volume, candlestick patterns).
Level Merging:
Merged levels indicate areas of high confluence, where multiple support/resistance zones overlap.
These areas are particularly important for decision-making, as they represent stronger market reactions.
Key Features
Customizable Lookback Periods: Adjust the lookback periods for each dynamic level to suit your trading style.
Touch Count Labels: Quickly identify the strength of each level based on the number of price touches.
Adaptive Levels: The indicator dynamically updates levels based on recent price action.
Clean Visualization: Levels are automatically merged to avoid clutter and provide a clear view of the market structure.
Usage Tips
Trend Identification: Combine the indicator with trend-following tools (e.g., moving averages, trendlines) to confirm the overall market direction.
Risk Management: Use the identified levels to set stop-loss orders or take-profit targets.
Timeframe Flexibility: The indicator works on all timeframes, but it is particularly effective on higher timeframes (e.g., 1H, 4H, Daily) for more reliable levels.
Example Scenarios
Bounce Trade:
If the price approaches a strong support level (high touch count) and shows signs of rejection (e.g., bullish candlestick patterns), consider a long position with a stop-loss below the support level.
Breakout Trade:
If the price breaks above a strong resistance level with high volume, consider a long position with a target at the next resistance level.
Range-Bound Market:
In a sideways market, use the support and resistance levels to identify range boundaries and trade bounces between them.

Rolling Angled Volume Profile [Trendoscope®]🎲 Volume Profile Indicators
🎯Traditional Volume Profile
Volume profile indicators visually represent the distribution of volume across price levels. These indicators typically operate on horizontal price levels, making them effective in identifying supply and demand zones in ranging markets. However, they are less useful in trending markets where price movements follow a slope.
🎯The Need for Angled Volume Profiles
Just as support and resistance levels differ from trendlines, volume profile indicators require an equivalent method to account for volume distribution along a sloped trajectory. This would enable more accurate volume analysis in trending markets.
We identified the need of Angled Volume profile and have already published few indicators that implements the concept.
Angled Volume Profile calculates volume distribution along a slope. Users interact with the indicator by selecting the starting point, after which the volume profile is calculated for the selected trajectory.
Volume Forks is another tool that extends angled volume profile analysis, aligning volume profiles along the trajectory of pitchforks.
🎲 Rolling Volume Profile Indicator
The Rolling Volume Profile offers a new approach to angled volume profile calculations, addressing some limitations of earlier implementations:
🎯 Rolling Calculation
The volume profile is calculated for the last N bars of the instrument
The slope of the profile lines is determined by the closing prices of the starting and ending bars
Profiles are drawn in the direction of price movement between the start and end bars.
🎯 Dynamic Updates
As new bars are added, the calculations are updated, and the profile is redrawn based on the latest data.
This dynamic behavior earns it the name "Rolling Volume Profile."
🎯 Advantages Over Earlier Versions
Unlimited Profile Lines : Unlike previous implementations limited to 500 profile lines, this indicator uses polyline objects, overcoming the restriction.
Live Updates : Previous angled volume profile tools lacked real-time updates when new bars appeared. This limitation is resolved in the Rolling Volume Profile Indicator.
The Rolling Volume Profile provides an efficient and scalable solution for analyzing volume in trending markets.
🎯 Indicator Settings
Simple settings include few customisable options
Enhanced Retail vs Institutional ActivityThis script highlights market activity in real-time, making it easier to infer the type of market participants driving price and volume changes.
Here’s a list of what the script analyzes:
Volume:
Current volume of the candle.
Moving average of volume over a specified number of periods.
Volume spikes: Current volume compared to a threshold multiple of the moving average.
Price Movement:
Percentage change in price between the current and previous candle.
Identifies significant price changes based on a user-defined threshold.
Institutional Activity:
High volume spikes combined with significant price movements.
Retail Activity:
Periods without volume spikes or significant price changes.
VWAP (Volume-Weighted Average Price):
The average traded price over a specified lookback period, weighted by volume, used as a benchmark.
Market Context Visualization:
Background colors to differentiate institutional (red) and retail (green) activity.
Overlays for:
-Volume bars.
-Average volume line.
-VWAP line.
In summary:
Red = Institutional activity: High volume + significant price change.

---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Analysis Explanation:
I’m forecasting that Bitcoin will retest its November 12th low (~$85,098.75) around January 20th, 2025, where the horizontal support line intersects with the downtrend line. This conclusion is based on the following:
Trend Analysis:
The chart shows a clear downtrend with price respecting the descending trendline.
The intersection of the horizontal support and the downtrend line on January 20th indicates a confluence point where price action may gravitate.
Volume and Activity Insights:
Using the Retail vs Institutional Activity indicator, the chart highlights periods dominated by institutional (red background) or retail (green background) activity.
Current price action is in a green zone, suggesting predominantly retail participation with lower volume and insignificant price movements.
Retail vs Institutional Dynamics:
Institutional activity (red zones) aligns with significant price movements and volume spikes, often marking key turning points or trends.
The recent green retail-dominated periods suggest a lack of strong momentum, which may lead to continued price decline until institutions re-enter around the confluence area.
Volume Observations:
Volume remains relatively low during the current retail phase, indicating weak buying pressure.
A potential surge in institutional activity (red zones) near the support level could trigger a rebound or breakdown.
I expect Bitcoin’s price to drop further and test the November 12th low near $85,098.75 on January 20th, 2025. This projection is supported by the convergence of the downtrend line and horizontal support, low retail-driven volume, and historical institutional activity patterns observed using the "Retail vs Institutional Activity" indicator.
Candle Spread Oscillator (CS0)The Candle Spread Oscillator (CSO) is a custom technical indicator designed to help traders identify momentum and directional strength in the market by analyzing the relationship between the candle body spread and the total candle range. This oscillator provides traders with a visually intuitive representation of price action dynamics and highlights key transitions between positive and negative momentum.
How It Works:
Body Spread vs. Total Range:
The CSO calculates the body spread (difference between the close and open price) and compares it to the total range (difference between the high and low price) of a candle.
The ratio of the body spread to the total range represents the proportion of price movement driven by directional momentum.
Smoothed Oscillator:
To remove noise and enhance clarity, the ratio is smoothed using a Hull Moving Average (HMA). The smoothing period can be adjusted through the "Smoothing Period" input, enabling traders to tailor the indicator to their preferred timeframes or strategies.
Gradient Visualization:
A gradient coloring is applied to the oscillator, transitioning smoothly between colors (e.g., fuchsia for negative momentum and aqua for positive momentum). This provides traders with a clear, intuitive visual cue of market behavior.
Visual Features:
Oscillator Plot:
The oscillator is displayed as an area-style plot, dynamically colored using a gradient. Positive values are represented in shades of aqua, while negative values are in shades of fuchsia.
Midline (0 Level):
A horizontal midline is plotted at the zero level, serving as a key reference point for identifying transitions between positive and negative momentum.
Background Highlights:
The chart background is subtly colored to match the oscillator's state, enhancing the visual emphasis on current momentum conditions.
Alerts for Key Crossovers:
The CSO comes with built-in alert conditions, making it highly actionable for traders:
Cross Up Alert: Triggers when the oscillator crosses above the midline (0), signaling a potential shift into positive momentum.
Cross Down Alert: Triggers when the oscillator crosses below the midline (0), indicating a potential transition into negative momentum.
These alerts allow traders to stay informed about critical market shifts without constantly monitoring the chart.
How to Use:
Trend Identification:
When the oscillator is above the midline and positive, it indicates that price action is moving with bullish momentum.
When the oscillator is below the midline and negative, it reflects bearish momentum.
Momentum Strength:
The magnitude of the oscillator (its distance from the midline) helps traders gauge the strength of the momentum. Stronger moves will push the oscillator further from zero.
Potential Reversals:
Crossovers of the oscillator through the midline can signal potential reversals or shifts in market direction.
Customization:
Adjust the Smoothing Period to adapt the sensitivity of the oscillator to different timeframes. A lower smoothing period reacts faster to price changes, while a higher smoothing period smooths out noise.
Best Use Cases:
Momentum Trading: Identify periods of sustained bullish or bearish momentum to align with the trend.
Reversal Signals: Spot transitions in market direction when the oscillator crosses the midline.
Confirmation Tool: Use the CSO alongside other indicators (e.g., volume, trendlines, or moving averages) to confirm trading signals.
Key Inputs:
Smoothing Period: Customize the sensitivity of the oscillator by adjusting the lookback period for the Hull Moving Average.
Gradient Range: The color gradient transitions between defined thresholds (-0.1 to 0.2 by default), ensuring a smooth visual experience.
[Why Use the Candle Spread Oscillator?
The CSO is a simple yet powerful tool for traders who want to:
Gain a deeper understanding of price momentum.
Quickly visualize shifts between bullish and bearish trends.
Use clear, actionable signals with customizable alerts.
Disclaimer: This indicator is not a standalone trading strategy. It should be used in combination with other technical and fundamental analysis tools. Always trade responsibly, and consult a financial advisor for personalized advice.
Noteworthy CandlesticksThis indicator identifies noteworthy candlestick formations by analyzing the proportions of a candlestick’s body, wicks, and shadows in relation to its total range. It highlights specific patterns to assist in analyzing potential market activity.
Key Features
Lower Wick Candles: It identifies candlesticks with long lower wicks, which may indicate price rejection at lower levels.
Upper Wick Candles: It detects candlesticks with long upper wicks, which may indicate price rejection at higher levels.
Doji Candles: It recognizes candlesticks with small bodies relative to their range, often associated with market indecision.
Definitions of Wicks and Shadows
In traditional candlestick charting, the terms wick and shadow are interchangeable, referring to the thin lines extending above and below the candlestick's body. However, this indicator uses distinct definitions:
Wicks represent the distance from the edges of the candlestick body (the open and close prices) to the high or low.
Shadows measure the distance from the closing price to the high or low of the candlestick.
By distinguishing between wicks and shadows, the indicator provides separate insights into price extremes (wicks) and price behavior around the close (shadows).
How It Works
The indicator evaluates each candlestick against user-defined thresholds for wick and shadow length. It compares the overall range of the candlestick to the ATR (Average True Range) to ensure patterns are relevant in the context of recent volatility.
Candlesticks with noteworthy lower wicks are marked with a symbol below the bar.
Candlesticks with noteworthy upper wicks are marked with a symbol above the bar.
Doji candles are marked with symbols both above and below the bar.
Applications
This indicator can assist traders in identifying potential areas of price reversal, rejection, or indecision. It can also provide additional context when used alongside other technical tools like volume analysis, trendlines, or support and resistance levels.

Catalyst TrendCatalyst Trend – A Comprehensive Trend and Regime Analyzer
The Catalyst Trend indicator was designed to dynamically and intuitively merge various classic analytical techniques. The goal is to filter out short-term market noise and reveal reliable trend phases or potential turning points. Below is a detailed explanation of its core elements and practical usage.
1. Concept and Idea
Multidimensional Trend Detection
This indicator goes beyond a simple momentum or volatility focus. It factors in multiple measurements to provide a more well-rounded market perspective.
Versatile Indicator Fusion
Linear Regression (LinReg): Multiple LinReg calculations are combined to smooth out price fluctuations and produce a robust trendline—known here as the “Cycle Reduced Line.”
ADX (Average Directional Index): Measures trend strength.
RSI (Relative Strength Index): Flags potential overbought or oversold conditions, in both the current timeframe and a higher timeframe.
ATR (Average True Range): Assesses volatility; used to dynamically adjust calculation lengths.
By weaving these elements together, the indicator adds value beyond simply stacking multiple indicators. It adapts to real-time market conditions, aiming to highlight genuine trends and reduce false signals.
2. Key Functions and Calculations
Dynamic Length & Smoothing
A blend of volatility (ATR), ADX values, and RSI inputs determines how many candles are used in the LinReg calculations and how heavily the data is smoothed.
This allows the indicator to respond promptly during periods of high volatility, while automatically adjusting to filter out unnecessary noise in quieter phases.c
Cycle Reduced Line
The script averages several offset LinReg calculations to produce a cleaner overall signal. Random outliers are thus minimized, making the trend path more visually consistent.
An additional EMA smoothing (“Final Smoothing”) further stabilizes this trendline, reducing the impact of minor price fluctuations.
Channel Bands (Optional)
These bands are derived from the standard deviation of the price residual (the difference between the smoothed price and the trendline).
They highlight potential over-extension zones: the upper band can mark short-term overbought areas, while the lower band might indicate oversold conditions.
Trend and Sideways Determination
Slope Calculation: The slope of the trendline (comparing the current bar to the previous one) helps identify short-term directional shifts.
DX Threshold: Once the ADX surpasses a user-defined threshold and the slope is positive, it may indicate a developing uptrend. Similarly, if the slope is negative and ADX > threshold, it could signal a potential downtrend.
Multi-Level Color Coding
Original Mode: Interpolated colors reflect uptrends, downtrends, and sideways phases, factoring in metrics like ADX and RSI.
Single Color: For a neutral look, the indicator can be displayed in one uniform color.
HTF RSI: This mode uses the higher-timeframe RSI to color the trendline (Long/Short/Neutral), offering a quick gauge of overarching market pressure.
3. Use Cases and Interpretation
Timeframes & Markets
The indicator is versatile and adapts well to different intervals, from 5-minute charts to weekly views.
It can be applied to various markets—crypto, forex, stocks—since volatility and trend strength are universal concepts.
Signal Recognition
Color Swings into a more pronounced upward hue (e.g., green) may signal mounting strength.
Neutral or mixed tones often point to sideways phases, which breakout traders might watch for potential price surges.
A shift to downward colors (e.g., red) may indicate a growing bearish trend.
Channel Bands & Volatility
When the bands spread widely, it’s wise to proceed with caution: abrupt spikes above the upper band or below the lower band can flag rapid short-term extremes.
These bands are more of a reference for potential overextension than a strict buy or sell trigger.
Additional Confirmations
Not a standalone panacea: The Catalyst Trend indicator is an analytical tool, best used alongside other methods such as volume analysis or price action (candlestick patterns, support/resistance levels) to bolster confidence in trading decisions.
4. Practical Tips
Parameter Adjustments
Depending on the market—crypto vs. traditional currency pairs—different ADX, RSI, or smoothing periods may be more effective. Experiment with the settings to tailor the indicator to your preferred timeframe.
Strategic Integration
Trailing Stops: For those riding a trend, the trendline or the channel bands may serve as a reference to trail stop-loss orders.
Trend Confirmation: Using RSI and ADX filters can help traders avoid sideways markets or stay the course when the trend is strong.
5. Important Final Notes
No Guarantee of Profits
No indicator can predict the future. Markets are inherently volatile and often unpredictable.
Responsible Risk Management
Test the indicator in a demo environment or with smaller positions before committing to large trades.

Linear Regression Channel [TradingFinder] Existing Trend Line🔵 Introduction
The Linear Regression Channel indicator is one of the technical analysis tool, widely used to identify support, resistance, and analyze upward and downward trends.
The Linear Regression Channel comprises five main components : the midline, representing the linear regression line, and the support and resistance lines, which are calculated based on the distance from the midline using either standard deviation or ATR.
This indicator leverages linear regression to forecast price changes based on historical data and encapsulates price movements within a price channel.
The upper and lower lines of the channel, which define resistance and support levels, assist traders in pinpointing entry and exit points, ultimately aiding better trading decisions.
When prices approach these channel lines, the likelihood of interaction with support or resistance levels increases, and breaking through these lines may signal a price reversal or continuation.
Due to its precision in identifying price trends, analyzing trend reversals, and determining key price levels, the Linear Regression Channel indicator is widely regarded as a reliable tool across financial markets such as Forex, stocks, and cryptocurrencies.
🔵 How to Use
🟣 Identifying Entry Signals
One of the primary uses of this indicator is recognizing buy signals. The lower channel line acts as a support level, and when the price nears this line, the likelihood of an upward reversal increases.
In an uptrend : When the price approaches the lower channel line and signs of upward reversal (e.g., reversal candlesticks or high trading volume) are observed, it is considered a buy signal.
In a downtrend : If the price breaks the lower channel line and subsequently re-enters the channel, it may signal a trend change, offering a buying opportunity.
🟣 Identifying Exit Signals
The Linear Regression Channel is also used to identify sell signals. The upper channel line generally acts as a resistance level, and when the price approaches this line, the likelihood of a price decrease increases.
In an uptrend : Approaching the upper channel line and observing weakness in the uptrend (e.g., declining volume or reversal patterns) indicates a sell signal.
In a downtrend : When the price reaches the upper channel line and reverses downward, this is considered a signal to exit trades.
🟣 Analyzing Channel Breakouts
The Linear Regression Channel allows traders to identify price breakouts as strong signals of potential trend changes.
Breaking the upper channel line : Indicates buyer strength and the likelihood of a continued uptrend, often accompanied by increased trading volume.
Breaking the lower channel line : Suggests seller dominance and the possibility of a continued downtrend, providing a strong sell signal.
🟣 Mean Reversion Analysis
A key concept in using the Linear Regression Channel is the tendency for prices to revert to the midline of the channel, which acts as a dynamic moving average, reflecting the price's equilibrium over time.
In uptrends : Significant deviations from the midline increase the likelihood of a price retracement toward the midline.
In downtrends : When prices deviate considerably from the midline, a return toward the midline can be used to identify potential reversal points.
🔵 Settings
🟣 Time Frame
The time frame setting enables users to view higher time frame data on a lower time frame chart. This feature is especially useful for traders employing multi-time frame analysis.
🟣 Regression Type
Standard : Utilizes classical linear regression to draw the midline and channel lines.
Advanced : Produces similar results to the standard method but may provide slightly different alignment on the chart.
🟣 Scaling Type
Standard Deviation : Suitable for markets with stable volatility.
ATR (Average True Range) : Ideal for markets with higher volatility.
🟣 Scaling Coefficients
Larger coefficients create broader channels for broader trend analysis.
Smaller coefficients produce tighter channels for precision analysis.
🟣 Channel Extension
None : No extension.
Left: Extends lines to the left to analyze historical trends.
Right : Extends lines to the right for future predictions.
Both : Extends lines in both directions.
🔵 Conclusion
The Linear Regression Channel indicator is a versatile and powerful tool in technical analysis, providing traders with support, resistance, and midline insights to better understand price behavior. Its advanced settings, including time frame selection, regression type, scaling options, and customizable coefficients, allow for tailored and precise analysis.
One of its standout advantages is its ability to support multi-time frame analysis, enabling traders to view higher time frame data within a lower time frame context. The option to use scaling methods like ATR or standard deviation further enhances its adaptability to markets with varying volatility.
Designed to identify entry and exit signals, analyze mean reversion, and assess channel breakouts, this indicator is suitable for a wide range of markets, including Forex, stocks, and cryptocurrencies. By incorporating this tool into your trading strategy, you can make more informed decisions and improve the accuracy of your market predictions.

RSI + Normalized Fisher Transform with SignalsThis indicator combines three tools for market analysis: the Relative Strength Index (RSI), the RSI's moving average, and the Fisher Transform. RSI is a momentum oscillator that measures the speed and change of price movements, helping identify overbought and oversold conditions. The RSI moving average is a smoothed version of the RSI that filters noise and confirms trends. The Fisher Transform is a mathematical technique that transforms price data into a Gaussian normal distribution, making it easier to identify turning points. It has been normalized to the same scale as the RSI (0-100) for consistency.
Purpose
The goal of this indicator is to identify potential buy and sell opportunities with varying degrees of strength (strong and weak). By combining the RSI, its moving average, and the Fisher Transform, the indicator ensures signals are based on both momentum and reversals, making it highly versatile across different market conditions.
Key Features
This indicator provides strong and weak buy and sell signals. A strong buy occurs when the RSI crosses above its moving average while both the RSI and its moving average are oversold (below the default threshold of 30), and the Fisher Transform reverses direction within the same or prior bar while also being oversold. A weak buy occurs when the Fisher Transform is oversold, and the RSI crosses above its moving average while its value is between the default oversold threshold (30) and 50. A strong sell occurs when the RSI crosses below its moving average while both the RSI and its moving average are overbought (above the default threshold of 70), and the Fisher Transform reverses direction within the same or prior bar while also being overbought. A weak sell occurs when the Fisher Transform is overbought, and the RSI crosses below its moving average while its value is between 50 and the default overbought threshold (70).
The indicator includes customizable thresholds and lengths. Users can adjust the oversold and overbought thresholds to suit their trading style. The RSI length, moving average length, and Fisher Transform length are also customizable. The Fisher Transform is scaled to the RSI’s range of 0-100 to simplify analysis and signal interpretation.
How to Use the Indicator
On the chart, you will see the RSI line in blue, the RSI moving average in orange, and the Fisher Transform in purple. Horizontal lines at the default oversold (30) and overbought (70) levels mark critical zones for signals. Adjust these thresholds in the indicator settings as needed.
Strong buy signals are shown as larger, darker green arrows below the price. Weak buy signals are small lime arrows below the price. Strong sell signals are larger, darker red arrows above the price. Weak sell signals are small fuchsia arrows above the price.
Signal Interpretation
A strong buy indicates a highly favorable buying opportunity. This typically occurs when the asset is in a downtrend but shows signs of reversal, particularly in oversold zones. A weak buy suggests a potential buying opportunity but with less conviction, often when the market is neutral to slightly bearish but showing upward momentum. A strong sell indicates a highly favorable selling opportunity, usually occurring when the asset is in an uptrend but shows signs of reversal, particularly in overbought zones. A weak sell suggests a potential selling opportunity but with less conviction, often in neutral to slightly bullish markets showing downward momentum.
Practical Tips
Avoid using signals in isolation. Combine this indicator with other tools such as trendlines, moving averages, or support/resistance levels for greater accuracy. Adjust the parameters for different assets to match their volatility. For volatile assets, consider wider thresholds like 20/80 for oversold/overbought levels. For less volatile assets, tighter thresholds like 35/65 may be more appropriate. Use higher timeframes to confirm signals before trading on lower timeframes. Be cautious in sideways markets, as both RSI and the Fisher Transform perform better in trending conditions.
Instructions for Adjustments
To change the oversold or overbought levels, open the indicator settings by clicking the gear icon and modify the "Oversold Threshold" and "Overbought Threshold" values. To adjust lengths for RSI and Fisher Transform, update the "RSI Length," "RSI Moving Average Length," and "Fisher Transform Length" settings. If needed, toggle signal visibility by enabling or disabling specific arrows (Strong Buy, Weak Buy, Strong Sell, Weak Sell) in the "Style" tab.
Best Practices
Risk management is essential. Always set appropriate stop-loss levels and position sizes based on your risk tolerance. Backtest the indicator on historical data to understand its performance and behavior for your chosen asset and timeframe. Combining this indicator with volume or volatility analysis (Bollinger Band Width, for example) can help confirm signal validity.
This indicator simplifies decision-making by identifying high-probability trading opportunities using a combination of momentum, trend, and reversals. Follow these instructions to fully utilize its capabilities without needing to analyze the underlying code.

Trend Flow Line (TFL)The Trend Flow Line (TFL) is a versatile moving average indicator that dynamically adjusts to trends using a combination of Hull and Weighted Moving Averages, with optional color coding for bullish and bearish trends.
Introduction
The Trend Flow Line (TFL) is a powerful indicator designed to help traders identify and follow market trends with precision. It combines multiple moving average techniques to create a responsive yet smooth trendline. Whether you're a beginner or an experienced trader, the TFL can enhance your chart analysis by highlighting key price movements and trends.
Detailed Description
The Trend Flow Line (TFL) goes beyond traditional moving averages by leveraging a hybrid approach to calculate trends.
Here's how it works:
.........
Combination of Hull and Weighted Moving Averages
The TFL integrates the Hull Moving Average (HMA), known for its fast responsiveness, and the Double Weighted Moving Average (DWMA), which offers smooth transitions.
The HMA is adjusted dynamically based on the user-defined length, ensuring adaptability to various trading styles and timeframes.
.....
Dynamic Smoothing
The TFL calculates its value by averaging the HMA and DWMA, creating a balanced line that responds to market fluctuations without excessive noise.
This balance makes it ideal for identifying both short-term reversals and long-term trends.
.....
Customizable Features
Timeframe: Analyze the indicator on custom timeframes, independent of the chart's current timeframe.
Color Coding: Optional color settings visually differentiate bullish (uptrend) and bearish (downtrend) phases.
Line Width: Adjust the line thickness to suit your chart preferences.
Color Smoothness: Fine-tune how quickly the color changes to reflect trend shifts, providing a visual cue for potential reversals.
The TFL's algorithm ensures a blend of precision and adaptability, making it suitable for any market or trading strategy.
.........
The Trend Flow Line (TFL) is an essential tool for traders looking to stay ahead of market trends while maintaining a clear and visually intuitive charting experience. It combines HMA and DWMA for trend sensitivity and smoothness.
Dynamic Support & Resistance based on SMI CrossoverExplanation:
SMI Calculation: The script calculates the Stochastic Momentum Index (SMI) and its signal line using the specified input lengths.
Crossover Detection: It detects when the SMI crosses above (crossUp) or below (crossDown) its signal line.
Period Tracking: The script keeps track of up and down periods based on SMI crossovers. During an up period, it records the lowest low (support), and during a down period, it records the highest high (resistance).
Support and Resistance Levels: When a crossover occurs, it captures the highest or lowest value since the last crossover to define dynamic resistance and support levels.
Midline Calculation: The midline is calculated as the average of the current support and resistance levels.
Buy and Sell Signals: Buy signals are generated when the close price crosses above the midline, and sell signals are generated when it crosses below.
Plotting: The support, resistance, and midline are plotted on the upper chart. Buy and sell signals are indicated with arrows. Trendlines are added for visual clarity.
Note: This indicator should be used in conjunction with other analysis tools and is intended for educational purposes. Always perform thorough analysis before making trading decisions.
Like all technical indicators, this script is based on historical data and may not predict future market movements.
Always perform due diligence and consider multiple factors when making trading decisions.
5-Minute YEN Pivot Bars 1.0The 5-Minute YEN Pivot Bars indicator is designed to identify and highlight low-range pivot bars on 5-minute charts, specifically tailored for Yen-based pairs (e.g., GBPJPY, USDJPY). By focusing on precise pip thresholds, this tool helps traders detect potential pivot points within specific trading sessions, while avoiding inside bars and other noise often seen in low-volatility conditions. This can be particularly useful for trend traders and those looking to refine their entry points based on intraday reversals.
Key Features:
- Customized Pip Thresholds for Yen Pairs:
The indicator is pre-configured for Yen pairs, where 1 pip is typically represented by 0.01. It applies these thresholds:
- Limited Range: 4 pips or less between open and close prices.
- High/Low Directionality: At least 3 pips from the close/open to the bar's high or low.
- Open/Close Proximity: 4 pips or less between open and close.
- Inside Bar Tolerance: A tolerance of 3 pips for inside bars, helping reduce false signals from bars contained within the previous bar's range.
- Session-Specific Alerts:
- The indicator allows you to enable alerts for the European Session (6:00-12:00), American Session (12:00-17:00), and London Close (17:00-20:00). You can adjust these times based on your own trading hours or timezone preferences via a time-shift setting.
- Receive real-time alerts when a valid bullish or bearish pivot bar is identified within the chosen sessions, allowing you to respond to potential trade opportunities immediately.
- Time Shift Customization:
- Adjust the "Time Shift" parameter to account for different time zones, ensuring accurate session alignment regardless of your local time.
How It Works:
1. Pivot Bar Identification:
The indicator scans for bars where the difference between the open and close is within the "Limited Range" threshold, and both open and close prices are close to either the high or the low of the bar.
2. Directional Filtering:
It requires the bar to show strong directional bias by enforcing an additional distance between the open/close levels and the opposite end of the bar (high/low). Only bars with this directional structure are considered for highlighting.
3. Exclusion of Inside Bars:
Bars that are completely contained within the range of the previous bar are excluded (inside bars), as are consecutive inside bars. This filtering is essential to avoid marking bars that typically indicate consolidation rather than potential pivot points.
4. Session Alerts:
When a valid pivot bar appears within the selected sessions, an alert is triggered, notifying the trader of a potential trading signal. Bullish and bearish signals are differentiated based on whether the close is near the high or low.
How to Use:
- Trend Reversals: Use this indicator to spot potential trend reversals or pullbacks on a 5-minute chart, especially within key trading sessions.
- Entry and Exit Points: Highlighted bars can serve as potential entry points for traders looking to capitalize on short-term directional changes or continuation patterns.
- Combine with Other Indicators: Consider pairing this tool with momentum indicators or trendlines to confirm the signals, providing a comprehensive analysis framework.
Default Parameters:
- Limited Range: 4 Pips
- High/Low Directionality: 3 Pips
- Open/Close Proximity: 4 Pips
- Inside Bar Tolerance: 3 Pips
- Session Alerts: Enabled for European, American, and London Close sessions
- Time Shift: Default 6 (adjustable to align with different time zones)
This indicator is specifically optimized for Yen pairs on 5-minute charts due to its pip calculation.
Hodrick-Prescott Cycle Component (YavuzAkbay)The Hodrick-Prescott Cycle Component indicator in Pine Script™ is an advanced tool that helps traders isolate and analyze the cyclical deviations in asset prices from their underlying trend. This script calculates the cycle component of the price series using the Hodrick-Prescott (HP) filter, allowing traders to observe and interpret the short-term price movements around the long-term trend. By providing two views—Percentage and Price Difference—this indicator gives flexibility in how these cyclical movements are visualized and interpreted.
What This Script Does
This indicator focuses exclusively on the cycle component of the price, which is the deviation of the current price from the long-term trend calculated by the HP filter. This deviation (or "cycle") is what traders analyze for mean-reversion opportunities and overbought/oversold conditions. The script allows users to see this deviation in two ways:
Percentage Difference: Shows the deviation as a percentage of the trend, giving a normalized view of the price’s distance from its trend component.
Price Difference: Shows the deviation in absolute price terms, reflecting how many price units the price is above or below the trend.
How It Works
Trend Component Calculation with the HP Filter: Using the HP filter, the script isolates the trend component of the price. The smoothness of this trend is controlled by the smoothness parameter (λ), which can be adjusted by the user. A higher λ value results in a smoother trend, while a lower λ value makes it more responsive to short-term changes.
Cycle Component Calculation: Percentage Deviation (cycle_pct) calculated as the difference between the current price and the trend, divided by the trend, and then multiplied by 100. This metric shows how far the price deviates from the trend in relative terms. Price Difference (cycle_price) simply the difference between the current price and the trend component, displaying the deviation in absolute price units.
Conditional Plotting: The user can choose to view the cycle component as either a percentage or a price difference by selecting the Display Mode input. The indicator will plot the chosen mode in a separate pane, helping traders focus on the preferred measure of deviation.
How to Use This Indicator
Identify Overbought/Oversold Conditions: When the cycle component deviates significantly from the zero line (shown with a dashed horizontal line), it may indicate overbought or oversold conditions. For instance, a high positive cycle component suggests the price may be overbought relative to the trend, while a large negative cycle suggests potential oversold conditions.
Mean-Reversion Strategy: In mean-reverting markets, traders can use this indicator to spot potential reversal points. For example, if the cycle component shows an extreme deviation from zero, it could signal that the price is likely to revert to the trend. This can help traders with entry and exit points when the asset is expected to correct back toward its trend.
Trend Strength and Cycle Analysis: By comparing the magnitude and duration of deviations, traders can gauge the strength of cycles and assess if a new trend might be forming. If the cycle component remains consistently positive or negative, it may indicate a persistent market bias, even as prices fluctuate around the trend.
Percentage vs. Price Difference Views: Use the Percentage Difference mode to standardize deviations and compare across assets or different timeframes. This is especially helpful when analyzing assets with varying price levels. Use the Price Difference mode when an absolute deviation (price units) is more intuitive for spotting overbought/oversold levels based on the asset’s actual price.
Using with Hodrick-Prescott: You can also use Hodrick-Prescott, another indicator that I have adapted to the Tradingview platform, to see the trend on the chart, and you can also use this indicator to see how far the price is deviating from the trend. This gives you a multifaceted perspective on your trades.
Practical Tips for Traders
Set the Smoothness Parameter (λ): Adjust the λ parameter to match your trading timeframe and asset characteristics. Lower values make the trend more sensitive, which might suit short-term trading, while higher values smooth out the trend for long-term analysis.
Cycle Component as Confirmation: Combine this indicator with other momentum or trend indicators for confirmation of overbought/oversold signals. For example, use the cycle component with RSI or MACD to validate the likelihood of mean-reversion.
Observe Divergences: Divergences between price movements and the cycle component can indicate potential reversals. If the price hits a new high, but the cycle component shows a smaller deviation than previous highs, it could signal a weakening trend.
Entropy-Based Adaptive SuperTrendOverview:
Introducing the Entropy-Based Adaptive SuperTrend – a groundbreaking trading indicator designed to adapt dynamically to market conditions using market entropy. This enhanced SuperTrend indicator adjusts its sensitivity according to the level of chaos (or order) in price movements, providing more stable signals during volatile periods and more responsive signals when the market becomes orderly.
Key Features:
Entropy-Adaptive Mechanism: By incorporating an entropy measure, this indicator estimates the degree of unpredictability in the market. During high entropy periods (more chaotic), signals are made less sensitive, while during low entropy periods, the indicator reacts more quickly to price changes.
Adaptive ATR Multiplier: Unlike traditional SuperTrend indicators that use a fixed ATR multiplier, this version calculates a dynamic ATR multiplier based on the entropy score, ensuring more flexibility and adaptability in setting stop levels.
Visual Clarity: The indicator is overlayed on the price chart with customizable visual elements. The bullish and bearish trends are color-coded for ease of use, and optional entry signals ("L" for long and "S" for short) are plotted to clearly mark potential entry opportunities.
Alerts for Key Opportunities : Never miss an opportunity with built-in alerts for buy and sell signals. Traders can easily configure these alerts to be notified instantly when market conditions trigger a new trend.
How It Works:
Entropy Calculation: The entropy of the price data is calculated over a user-defined period, giving an indication of the degree of randomness in the price movements. The result is then smoothed to reduce noise and create a meaningful trend indication.
Dynamic ATR Adjustment: The ATR (Average True Range) multiplier, which controls the distance of the trailing stop, is adjusted based on the entropy score. This allows the SuperTrend line to widen in chaotic times, reducing false signals, while tightening in orderly times, allowing quicker trend captures.
Parameters Explained:
Entropy Settings: Control the sensitivity of entropy calculations, including the look-back period, number of bins for price distribution, and smoothing length.
Adaptive Settings: Adjust how the indicator adapts to different levels of entropy, including the adaptation period and the filtering weight.
SuperTrend Settings : Customize the ATR period and the dynamic multiplier range to fine-tune the trailing stops for your trading style.
Visual Settings: Choose your preferred colors for bullish and bearish trends, and decide if you want the entry labels displayed directly on the chart.
Use Cases:
Swing Traders can utilize the indicator to capture trend reversals while filtering out the noise during high entropy periods.
Intraday Traders can adapt the settings for shorter time frames to benefit from dynamic adjustments that reduce overtrading and false signals.
Risk Management: The entropy-based adaptive feature provides an edge in risk management by reducing sensitivity during times of increased chaos, thus helping to limit unnecessary trades.
How to Use It:
Look for entry labels ("L" for long, "S" for short) to identify potential opportunities.
Use the color-coded trendlines to determine market bias: greenish hue for bullish trends, reddish hue for bearish trends.
Customize the input settings to align with your preferred market timeframe and risk profile.
Alerts & Notifications:
Built-in alerts notify you of significant trend changes. Simply enable these alerts to receive updates when a new long or short opportunity is detected, helping you stay ahead without needing to watch the screen constantly.
Customization Tips:
Longer Timeframes : Increase the Entropy Period to better capture macro trends in high timeframe charts.
Higher Volatility Markets: Increase the ATR Max Multiplier to ensure stops are set farther away during high entropy.
Lower Volatility Markets: Use a lower ATR Base Multiplier and tighter entropy thresholds to capture rapid price movements.
Final Thoughts:
The Entropy-Based Adaptive SuperTrend indicator merges traditional trend-following logic with an adaptive mechanism driven by market entropy, aiming to address the challenges of whipsaws and false signals common in conventional SuperTrend setups. This indicator offers an intelligent and flexible way to track market trends, suitable for both beginners and experienced trade

Momentum Flow OscillatorIndicator Overview: Momentum Flow Oscillator (MFO)
The Momentum Flow Oscillator (MFO) is a powerful tool for detecting shifts in market momentum. It combines a momentum-based calculation with a dynamic ribbon of moving averages to help traders identify trend reversals, continuations, and market consolidations. The MFO offers a clear visual representation of market conditions and assists traders in making informed decisions based on the relationship between momentum and its underlying trends.
The MFO line (green) is plotted alongside a Base Line (black) and a series of moving averages (ribbon). The ribbon is composed of five moving averages of different lengths, which allow traders to spot trends, momentum shifts, and potential trade opportunities. It is important to note that the ribbon tends to be a slower-moving component of the indicator, providing long-term trend signals rather than quick, reactive signals.
Components of the Indicator:
Momentum Flow Index (MFI):
This green line is the core of the indicator, representing market momentum derived from price and volume action. It reacts to changes in market dynamics and helps identify periods of strength and weakness.
Base Line (Black Line):
The black line is a 200-period moving average of the momentum flow. This acts as a dynamic support/resistance level for the MFI, smoothing out the price action over a longer period and providing a clearer trend signal.
Moving Averages Ribbon:
The ribbon is composed of five moving averages with different periods (100, 125, 150, 175, and 200). These moving averages create a visual "ribbon" that helps identify trends and consolidations, allowing traders to visualize the market’s momentum over different time frames.
The ribbon acts as a slower-moving indicator, helping to confirm long-term trends. Traders should keep in mind that the ribbon provides signals with a lag, making it ideal for trend-following rather than quick, short-term trades.
How to Use the Momentum Flow Oscillator (MFO):
1. Bullish Momentum Signals:
When the MFI (green line) crosses above the Base Line and the SMA ribbon, it indicates increasing momentum in the market. This signal is particularly strong when the MFI stays above the ribbon for an extended period.
Trade Example: Traders can use this as a buy signal when the MFI crosses above the ribbon, indicating that momentum is shifting to the upside. If the ribbon starts fanning out, it suggests the market is trending strongly upward, which may support a long position.
2. Bearish Momentum Signals:
When the MFI crosses below the Base Line and the SMA ribbon, it signals decreasing momentum. This is a bearish sign, indicating that the market may be preparing for a downturn.
Trade Example: A trader can use the cross below the ribbon as a sell signal or consider entering a short position when momentum weakens. If the ribbon fans out in a downward direction, it suggests the market is trending lower, and a short position may be warranted.
3. Neutral or Caution Signals:
When the MFI fluctuates within the SMA ribbon or crosses in and out frequently, the market may be in a consolidation phase or range-bound. In this situation, the trend is uncertain, and momentum is not strong enough to break decisively in either direction.
Trade Example: Traders may want to avoid taking new positions when the MFI is moving sideways within the ribbon, as this indicates indecision in the market. Waiting for a breakout above or below the ribbon can provide clearer signals for trading.
4. Trend Confirmation with Ribbon Expansion:
When the SMA ribbon expands, it indicates strong momentum in the direction of the trend. A clear widening of the ribbon with the MFI above (bullish) or below (bearish) signals a strong, sustainable trend.
Trade Example: As the ribbon expands, it confirms the strength of the trend, and traders can use this as confirmation to either hold an existing position or add to it.
5. Reversal Signals from Ribbon Contraction:
When the SMA ribbon contracts or the MFI crosses back and forth over the Base Line, it signals a potential reversal or a weakening of the existing trend.
Trade Example: In these cases, traders might consider closing positions or preparing for a reversal, as the contraction often signals a potential breakout in the opposite direction.
Example of Using the MFO in Trading:
In the provided chart image, you can see the MFI moving below the Base Line and the SMA ribbon for an extended period. This indicates bearish momentum, and traders could use this signal to enter a short position or avoid long positions until the MFI shows signs of crossing back above the ribbon. When the MFI crosses above the ribbon, it can signal a potential bullish reversal, indicating it might be time to re-enter long positions or close short positions.
Additional Trading Tips:
Combine with Other Indicators: The MFO can be used in combination with other technical tools such as volume-based indicators, trendlines, or oscillators like RSI or MACD to confirm signals and increase accuracy.
Use Different Time Frames: Traders can apply the MFO on different time frames (e.g., daily, weekly) to capture both short-term and long-term trends. Crossovers in longer time frames provide stronger confirmation of trend direction.
Conservative Entry: For more conservative traders, waiting for the MFI to fully cross above or below the ribbon (rather than within it) can help filter out false signals and avoid entering trades during consolidation phases.
Conclusion:
The Momentum Flow Oscillator offers traders a versatile and visual approach to gauging market momentum and trend strength. By observing the interaction between the MFI and the SMA ribbon, traders can spot trend changes early, confirm existing trends, and stay out of choppy, sideways markets. Keep in mind that the ribbon is a slower-moving part of the indicator—perfect for trend-following strategies but less ideal for fast, reactive trades. Use this indicator to increase your confidence in your trading decisions and improve your ability to capture trends in the market.
Dow Theory based Strategy (Markttechnik)What makes this script unique?
calculates two trends at the same time: a big one for the overall strong trend - and a small one to trigger a trade after a small correction within the big trend
only if both trends (the small and the big trend) are in an uptrend, a buy signal is created: this prevents a buy signal from being generated in a falling market just because an upward movement begins in a small trend
the exit strategy can be configured very flexibly and individually: use the last low as stop loss and automatically switch to a trialing stop loss as soon as the take profit is reached (instead of finishing the trade)
the take profit strategy can also be configured - e.g. use the last high, a fixed percentage or a combination of it
plots each trade in detail on the chart - e.g. inner candles or the exact progression of the stop loss over the entire duration of the trade to allow you to analyze each trade precisely
What does the script do and how?
In this strategy an intact upward trend is characterized by higher highs and lower lows only if the big trend and the small trend are in an upward trend at the same time.
The following describes how the script calculates a buy signal. Every step is drawn to the chart immediately - see example chart above:
1. the stock rises in the big trend - i.e. in a longer time frame
2. a correction takes place (the share price falls) - but does not create a new low
3. the stock rises again in the big trend and creates a new high
From now on, the big trend is in an intact upward trend (until it falls below its last low).
This is drawn to the chart as 3 bold green zigzag lines.
But we do not buy right now! Instead, we want to wait for a correction in the big trend and for the start of a small upward trend.
4. a correction takes place (not below the low from 2.)
Now, the script also starts to calculate the small trend:
5. the stock rises in the small trend - i.e. in a shorter time frame
6. a small correction takes place (not below the low from 4.)
7. the stock rises above the high from 5.: a new high in the shorter time frame
Now, both trends are in an intact upward trend.
A buy signal is created and both the minor and major trend are colored green on the chart.
Now, the trade is active and:
the stop loss is calculated and drawn for each candle
the take profit is calculated and drawn to the chart
as soon as the price reaches the take profit or the stop loss, the trade is closed
Features and functionalities
Uptrend : An intact upward trend is characterized by higher highs and lower lows. Uptrends are shown in green on the chart.
The beginning of an uptrend is numbered 1, each subsequent high is numbered 2, and each low is numbered 3.
Downtrend: An intact downtrend is characterized by lower highs and lower lows. Downtrends are displayed in red on the chart.
Note that our indicator does not show the numbering of the points of the downtrend.
Trendless phases: If there is no intact trend, we are in a trendless phase. Trendless phases are shown in blue on the chart.
This occurs after an uptrend, when a lower low or a lower high is formed. Or after a downtrend, when a higher low or a higher high is formed.
Buy signals
A buy signal is generated as soon as a new upward trend has been formed or a new high has been established in an intact upward trend.
But even before a buy signal is generated, this strategy anticipates a possible emerging trend and draws the next possible trading opportunity to the chart.
In addition to the (not yet reached) buy price, the risk-reward ratio, the StopLoss and the TakeProfit price is shown.
With this information, you can already enter a StopBuy order, which is thus triggered directly with the then created buy signal.
You can configure, if a buy signal shall be created while the big trend is an uptrend, a downtrend and/or trendless.
Exit strategy
With this strategy, you have multiple possibilities to close your position. All of them can be configured within the settings. In general, you can combine a take profit strategy with a stop loss strategy.
The take profit price will be calculated once for each trade. It will be drawn to the chart for active trade.
Depending on your configuration, this can be the last high (which is often a resistance level), a fixed percentage added to the buy price or the maximum of both.
You can also configure that a trailing stop loss is used as soon as the take profit price is reached once.
The stop loss gets recalculated with each candle and is displayed and plotted for each active and finished trade. With this, you can easily check how the stop loss changed during your trades.
The stop loss can be configured flexibly:
Use the classic "trailing stop loss" that follows the price from below.
Set the stop loss to the last low and tighten it every time the small trend marks a new local low.
Confiure that the stop loss is tightened as soon as the break even is reached. Nothing is more annoying than a trade turning from a win to a loss.
Ignore inside candles (see description below) and relax the stop loss to use the outside candle for its calculation.
Inner candles
Inner candles are created when the candle body is within the maximum values of a previous candle (the outer candle). There can be any number of consecutive inner candles. As soon as you have activated the "Check inner candles" setting, all consecutive inner candles will be highlighted in yellow on the chart.
Prices during an inner candle scenario might be irrelevant for trading and can be interpreted as fluctuations within the outside candle. For this reason, the trailing stop loss should not be aligned with inner candles. Therefore, as soon as an inner candle occurs, the stop loss is reset and the low at the time of the outside candle is used as the calculation for the trailing stop loss. This will all be plotted for you on the chart.
Display of the trades:
All active and closed trades of the last 5 years are displayed in the chart with buy signal, sell, stop loss history, inside candles and statistics.
Backtesting:
The strategy can be simulated for each stock over the period of the last 5 years. Each individual trade is recorded and can be traced and analyzed in the chart including stop loss history. Detailed evaluations and statistics are available to evaluate the performance of the strategy.
Additional Statistics
This strategy immediately displays a statistic table to the chart area giving you an overview of its performance over the last years for the given chart.
This includes:
The total win/loss in $ and %
The win/loss per year in %
The active investment time in days and % (e.g. invested 10 of 100 trading days -> 10%)
The total win/loss in %, extrapolated to 100% equity usage: Only with this value can strategies really be compared. Because you are not invested between the trades and could invest in other stocks during this time. This value indicates how much profit you would have made if you had been invested 100% of the time - or to put it another way - if you had been invested 100% of the time in stocks with exactly the same performance. Let's say you had only one trade in the last 5 years that lasted, say, only one month and made 5% profit. This would be significantly better than a strategy with which you were invested for, say, 5 years and made 10% profit.
The total profit/loss per year in %, extrapolated to 100% equity usage
Notifications (alerts):
Get alerted before a new buy signal emerges to create an order if necessary and not miss a trade. You can also be notified when the stop loss needs to be adjusted. The notification can be done in different ways, e.g. by Mail, PopUp or App-Notification. This saves them the annoying, time-consuming and error-prone "click through" all the charts.
Settings: Display Settings
With these settings, you have the possibility to:
Show the small or the big trend as a background color
Configure if the numbers (1-2-3-2-3) shall be shown at all or only for the small, the big trend or both
Settings: Trend calculation - fine tuning
Drawing trend lines on a chart is not an exact science. Some highs and lows are not very clear or significant. And so it will always happen that 2 different people would draw different trendlines for the same chart. Unfortunately, there is no exact "right" or "wrong" here.
With the options under "Trend Calculation - Fine Tuning" you have the possibility to influence the drawing in of trends and to adapt it to your personal taste.
Small Trend, Big Trend : With these settings you can influence how significant a high or low has to be to recognize them as an independent high or low. The larger the values, the more significant a high or low must be to be recognized as such.
High and low recognition : With this setting you can influence when two adjacent, almost identical highs or lows should be recognized as independent highs or lows. The higher the value, the more different "similar" highs or lows must be in order to be recognized as such.
Which default settings were selected and why
Show Trades: true - its often useful to see all recent trades in the chart
Time Frame: 1 day - most common time frame (except for day traders)
Take Profit: combined 10% - the last high is taken as take profit because the trend often changes there, but only if there is at least 10% profit to ensure we do not risk money for a tiny profit
Stop Loss: combined - the last low is used as stop loss because the trend would break there and switch to a trailing stop loss as soon as our take profit is reached to let our profits run without risking them anymore
Stop Loss distance: 3% - we are giving the price 3% air (below the last low) to avoid being stopped out due to a short price drop
Trailing Stop Loss: 2% - we have to give the stop loss some room to avoid being stopped out prematurely; this is a value that is well balanced between a certain downside distance and the profit-taking ratio
Set Stop Loss to break even: true, 2% - once we reached the break even, it is a common practice to not risk our money anymore, the value is set to the same value as the trailing stop loss
Trade Filter: Uptrend - we only start trades if the big trend is an uptrend in the expectation that it will continue after a small correction
Display settings: those will not influence the trades, feel free to change them to your needs
Trend calculation - Fine Tuning: 1/1,5/0,05; influences the internal calculation for highs and lows and how significant they need to be to be considered a new high or low; the default values will provide you nicely calculated trends in the daily time frame; if there are too many or too few lows and highs according to your taste, feel free to play around and immediately see the result drawn to the chart; read the manual for a detailed description of this values
Note that you can (and should) configure the general trading properties like your initial capital, order size, slippage and commission.
