Trend Strength/DirectionThis is a really good, though complex indicator, so I will add two different explanations so to appease both the laymen and those who take the time to read thoroughly.
Simple Explanation
This indicator utilizes 6HMA's to display their angles
The greater the angle ---> the stronger the trend
If more angles are positive, then trend is very strong
If more are negative, then very negative
Comprehensive Explanation
6 angles, each of a different time frame are used to represent direction and trend strength. Angles are used because they intrinsically represent momentum and speed. An angle of 45 represents a perfect balance between something that can cover the furthest distance without compensating for speed. 1 of the 6 angles is intended(though customizable) to represent the 5 hma's angle. This is because the 5hma is very good at representing very near term price action.
Angle Levels
Its important to understand what the angle levels mean for the underlying hma's. The 0 level represents a hma that is horizontal. This is important because this is the point at which it decides to be bullish or bearish. +/- 45, as noted before, represent bullishness/bearishness that represent strong trends without compensating for speed. A continuous increase/decrease and or a cross of these levels generally indicate significant change in sentiment, of which trades may be taken.
Strategy
You should weigh your decision by those angles that represent the longer time frame. If more angles represent a certain sentiment, it is obviously unwise to fight against that long term sentiment. The purpose of this indicator was to provide a proper representation of trend direction and strength, but also solve the problem of when you should 'dip' buy.
For an example: if all angles are increase or decreasing, then you may use the 5hma's angle to find the proper points at which you will enter a position.
***NOTE: I dont think the +/- 45 bands should indicate 'overbought' or 'oversold' zones that some might assume. Instead you should wait for a crossing of this zone.
Trend-strength
RDX Relative Directional IndexRDX Relative Directional Index, Strength + Direction + Trend. This indicator is the combination of RSI and DMI or ADX. RDX aims at providing Relative direction of the price along with strength of the trend. This acts as both RSI and Average Directional Index. as the strength grows the RSI line becomes wider and when there is high volatility and market fluctuation the line becomes thinner. Color decides the Direction. This indicator provides sideways detection of RSI signal.
RDX Width: This determines the strength of RSI and Strength of ADX, The strength grows RDX band grows wider, as strength decreases band shrinks and merge into the RSI line. for exact working simply disable RSI plot on the indicator. when there is no strength the RSI vanishes..
Technical:
RSI : with default 14 period
ADX : Default 14 period
RDX=RSI+(ADX-20)/5
Color Code:
Red: Down Direction
Green: Up Direction
Sideways:
A rectangular channel is plotted on RSI 50 Level
Oversold Overbought:
Oversold and Overbought Levels are plotted for normal RSI Oversold and Overbought detection.
Buy/Sell:
Buy sell signals from ADX crossover are plotted and its easy to determine
Strength + Direction + Trend in one go

• Choose Pattern Of Filter: shows bodies growing or waning or both.
• Sample Lengths Of AvgBar: number of recent bars to use for average size.
• BigBar Is Min% Of AvgBar: the minimum percent of average the big bar must be.
• MedBar Is Max% Of BigBar: the maximum percent of big bar the medium bar can be.
• SmlBar Is Max% Of MedBar: the maximum percent of medium bar the small bar can be.
• Repeat Pattern If n Bars: the number of bars to ignore repeat patterns, 1 allows all.
• Trending: on requires the growing or waning patterns to also be trending.
• GrayBars: colors non pattern bodies gray.

TRIX ribbon w/ Up/Down colours - squattter
Follow the momentum - 2/4/8hr or Daily, take your pick. Use 2 or more TFs together for greater chance of a winning trade.
Also brilliant for spotting divergence.
This one is my favorite indicator.
ADX Color Easy [Dravya]Script #1
So,
here is my first script.
This is the normal 14 period ADX,
but with a color twist, to make it extremely easy on eyes.
and then,
easily spot the strength.
ADX, as you know, shows the strength of the trend.
As short term traders, we need price movement and a strong trend.
How to use this script ?
1. We don't trade when ADX is in the red zone (0-20)
2. We get ready for trading when it enters the blue zone (20-30)
3. We trade when the ADX enters the green zone (>30)
Simple, right !
Now, in the green zone,
in which direction you should trade?
Here are a few links, to help you use ADX as a strategy ,

Other than this, you can combine this with your own strategies.
Personally, I like to use it on stocks on 1H timeframe.
Thanks.
