EMA Grid + Martingale Indicator (Long-Only)Title:
EMA Grid + Martingale Indicator (Long-Only)
Short Summary:
A 4-EMA trend filter combined with a grid-based entry system and optional martingale sizing to visualize staged long entries and exits in bullish markets.
Full Description:
This indicator combines a 4-EMA trend filter with a grid-based entry system and optional martingale-style position sizing to help traders visualize staged long entries and exits in trending markets.
How It Works
1. Trend Detection: Uses two sets of EMAs (fast/slow pairs) to confirm bullish momentum. A long signal is generated when both EMA groups align in an uptrend.
2. Grid Entries: After the initial long entry, additional grid levels are triggered every time price drops by the specified grid step (in pips).
3. Martingale Sizing (Optional): Each subsequent entry can increase in size based on the defined martingale factor.
4. Weighted-Average Exit: Calculates the weighted average of all grid entries and signals an exit when the price reaches or surpasses this level plus an optional buffer.
Key Features
• 4 EMA Trend Filter with fully customizable lengths.
• Dynamic grid entries with visual labels (L1, L2, etc.).
• Optional martingale position sizing.
• Weighted-average exit with adjustable buffer.
• Customizable parameters for EMAs, grid steps, max entries, and buffer pips.
• Clear chart visualization of EMAs and entry/exit levels.
Use Cases
• For traders using cost-averaging or grid strategies in bullish markets.
• Visualizes multiple entry levels and profit targets.
• Useful for backtesting and strategy planning.
Note: This indicator is for visualization and planning purposes only. It does not execute trades automatically. It does not guarantee profits and is not financial advice.

OB/OS adaptative v1.1# OB/OS Adaptative v1.1 - Multi-Timeframe Adaptive Overbought/Oversold Indicator
## Overview
The `tradingview_indicator_emas.pine` script is a sophisticated multi-timeframe indicator designed to identify dynamic overbought and oversold levels in financial markets. It combines EMA (Exponential Moving Average) crossovers and Bollinger Bands across monthly, weekly, and daily timeframes to create adaptive support and resistance levels that adjust to changing market conditions.
## Core Functionality
### Multi-Timeframe Analysis
The indicator analyzes three timeframes simultaneously:
- **Monthly (M)**: Long-term trend identification
- **Weekly (W)**: Intermediate-term trend identification
- **Daily (D)**: Short-term volatility measurement
### Technical Indicators Used
- **EMA 9 and EMA 20**: For trend identification and momentum assessment
- **Bollinger Bands (20-period)**: For volatility measurement and extreme level identification
- **Price action**: For confirmation of level validity and signal generation
## Key Features
### Adaptive Level Calculation
The indicator dynamically determines overbought and oversold levels based on market structure and trend bias:
#### Monthly Level Logic
- **Bullish Bias** (when monthly open > EMA20):
- Oversold = lower of EMA9 or EMA20
- Overbought = upper of EMA9 or Bollinger Upper Band
- **Bearish/Neutral Bias** (when monthly open ≤ EMA20):
- Oversold = Bollinger Lower Band
- Overbought = upper of EMA20 or EMA9
#### Weekly Level Logic
- **Bullish Bias** (when weekly open > EMA20):
- Oversold = lower of EMA9 or EMA20
- Overbought = Bollinger Upper Band
- **Bearish/Neutral Bias** (when weekly open ≤ EMA20):
- Oversold = Bollinger Lower Band
- Overbought = upper of EMA20 or EMA9
#### Daily Level Logic
- Simple Bollinger Bands:
- Oversold = Bollinger Lower Band
- Overbought = Bollinger Upper Band
### Final Level Determination
The indicator combines all three timeframes through a weighted averaging process:
1. Calculates initial values as the average of monthly, weekly, and daily levels
2. Ensures mathematical consistency by enforcing overbought_final ≥ oversold_final using min/max functions
3. Calculates a midpoint average level as the center of the range
### Visual Elements
- **Dynamic Lines**: Draws horizontal lines for current and previous period overbought, oversold, and average levels
- **Labels**: Places clear textual labels at the start of each period
- **Color Coding**:
- Red for overbought levels (resistance)
- Green for oversold levels (support)
- Blue for average levels (pivot point)
- **Transparency**: Previous period lines use semi-transparent colors to distinguish between current and historical levels
### Update Mechanism
- **Calculation Day**: User-defined day of the week (default: Monday)
- On the specified calculation day, the indicator:
- Updates all levels based on previous bar's data
- Draws new lines extending forward for a user-defined number of days
- Maintains previous period lines for comparison and trend analysis
- Automatically deletes and recreates lines to ensure clean visualization
### Proximity Detection
- Alerts when price approaches overbought/oversold levels (configurable distance in percentage)
- Helps identify potential reversal zones before actual crossovers occur
- Distance thresholds are user-configurable for both overbought and oversold conditions
### Alert Conditions
The indicator provides four distinct alert types:
1. **Cross below oversold**: Triggered when price crosses below the oversold level
2. **Cross above overbought**: Triggered when price crosses above the overbought level
3. **Near oversold**: Triggered when price approaches the oversold level within the configured distance
4. **Near overbought**: Triggered when price approaches the overbought level within the configured distance
### Debug Mode
When enabled, displays comprehensive debug information including:
- Current values for all levels (oversold, overbought, average)
- Timeframe-specific calculations and raw data points
- System status information (current day, calculation day, etc.)
- Lines existence and timing information
- Organized in multiple labels at different price levels to avoid overlap
## Configuration Parameters
| Parameter | Default Value | Description |
|---------|---------------|-------------|
| Short EMA (9) | 9 | Length for short-term EMA calculation |
| Long EMA (20) | 20 | Length for long-term EMA calculation |
| BB Length | 20 | Period for Bollinger Bands calculation |
| Std Dev | 2.0 | Standard deviation multiplier for Bollinger Bands |
| Distance to overbought (%) | 0.5 | Percentage threshold for "near overbought" alerts |
| Distance to oversold (%) | 0.5 | Percentage threshold for "near oversold" alerts |
| Calculation day | Monday | Day of week when levels are recalculated |
| Lookback days | 7 | Number of days to extend previous period lines backward |
| Forward days | 7 | Number of days to extend current period lines forward |
| Show Debug Labels | false | Toggle for comprehensive debug information display |
## Trading Applications
### Primary Use Cases
1. **Reversal Trading**: Identify potential reversal zones when price approaches overbought/oversold levels
2. **Trend Confirmation**: Use the adaptive nature of levels to confirm trend strength and direction
3. **Position Sizing**: Adjust position size based on distance from key levels
4. **Stop Placement**: Use opposite levels as dynamic stop-loss references
### Strategic Advantages
- **Adaptive Nature**: Levels adjust to changing market volatility and trend structure
- **Multi-Timeframe Confirmation**: Signals are validated across multiple timeframes
- **Visual Clarity**: Clear color-coded lines and labels enhance decision-making
- **Proactive Alerts**: "Near" conditions provide early warnings before crossovers
## Implementation Details
### Data Security
Uses `request.security()` function to fetch data from higher timeframes (monthly, weekly) while maintaining proper bar indexing with ` ` offset for open prices.
### Performance Optimization
- Uses `var` keyword to declare persistent variables that maintain state across bars
- Efficient line and label management with proper deletion before recreation
- Conditional execution of debug code to minimize performance impact
### Error Handling
- Comprehensive NA (not available) checks throughout the code
- Graceful degradation when data is unavailable for higher timeframes
- Mathematical safeguards to prevent invalid level calculations
## Conclusion
The OB/OS Adaptative v1.1 indicator represents a sophisticated approach to identifying market extremes by combining multiple technical analysis concepts. Its adaptive nature makes it particularly useful in trending markets where static levels may be less effective. The multi-timeframe approach provides a comprehensive view of market structure, while the visual elements and alert system enhance its practical utility for active traders.
Weekly 8 EMA Horizontal Linethis will automatically track the WEEKLY 8EMA on your chart so you can know where the Weekly 8EMA is on lower timeframes
Moving Average Exponential (Daily Frozen EMA)This script plots an Exponential Moving Average (EMA) based on the daily timeframe, but with a unique twist:
✅ The EMA value is frozen for the entire current daily session, only updating when a new daily candle begins.
🔍 How it works:
The EMA is calculated using the 1-day timeframe, regardless of the chart's current timeframe.
This EMA value remains fixed throughout the day — it doesn't fluctuate intrabar.
It updates only once the daily candle has closed, providing a stable and reliable reference point during the trading day.
The default is the 5 day EMA but can be changed to any EMA timeframe you desire such as 9, 21, 50, 100. 200, etc.
✨ Additional Features:
✅ Optional smoothing with various moving average types (SMA, EMA, WMA, SMMA, VWMA).
✅ Optional Bollinger Bands on top of the smoothed EMA.
✅ Adjustable settings for EMA length, smoothing type, Bollinger Band deviation, and display options.
🛠️ Use Cases:
Ideal for traders who want a non-reactive EMA during intraday trading.
Helps reduce signal noise by anchoring EMA to higher timeframe structure.
Useful for strategy development where EMA should represent confirmed daily bias only.
Hope this helps, happy trading!

Refined MA + Engulfing (Strategy-Equivalent Trigger)I would like to start by saying that this indicator was put together using ChatGPT, some past trades from myself and some backtested trades, and from my time as a student in Wallstreet Academy under Cue Banks.
I am not profitable yet. I am too jumpy and blow accounts. I'm hoping this indicator (and it's strategy twin), with the help of some alerts, can help me spend less time on the charts, so that I'm not tempted to press buttons as much.
It does fire quite a bit. It can be adjusted, I believe, to trigger more or less (open the script, cooldown bars(x) <== change the X to whatever. 5 minute intervals so 1 is 5.
With that being said, there are times that this indicator has shown to trigger and I ask, "Why?".
I just want to help myself and others, and maybe make some decent\cool stuff along the way. Enjoy

EMA 8/21/50 + VWAP Crossover Alert IndicatorOverview of the Indicator
This is a custom Pine Script v5 indicator for TradingView titled "EMA 8/21/50 + VWAP Crossover Alert Indicator" (short title: "EMA+VWAP Cross Alert"). It's designed as an overlay indicator, meaning it plots directly on your price chart rather than in a separate pane. The primary purpose is to detect and alert on crossovers between the 8-period Exponential Moving Average (EMA) and the 21-period EMA, which can signal potential bullish or bearish momentum shifts. These are classic short-term trend reversal or continuation signals often used in trading strategies like momentum or swing trading.
To enhance analysis, it also includes:
A 50-period EMA for medium-term trend context (e.g., to confirm if the overall trend aligns with the crossover).
A Volume Weighted Average Price (VWAP) line, which provides a benchmark for the average price weighted by volume, useful for identifying intraday value areas or fair price levels.
The indicator works across all timeframes (e.g., Daily, 4H, 1H, 15M, 5M, 3M) because the calculations are based on the chart's current bars and adapt to volatility and data resolution. It's not a trading strategy (no entry/exit logic or backtesting), but an alert tool—signals are visual and can trigger notifications in TradingView. Always combine it with risk management, as crossovers can produce false signals in ranging or choppy markets.
Supertrend with ADX & MTF MA Filter# **Supertrend with ADX & MTF MA Filter - Comprehensive Explanation**
---
## **1. Purpose of This Indicator**
This indicator combines three powerful technical analysis tools to create a robust trading system:
✅ **Supertrend** (Trend-following)
✅ **ADX Filter** (Trend strength confirmation)
✅ **MTF MA Filter** (Multi-timeframe trend direction confirmation)
**Primary Goals:**
✔ **Identify high-probability trend reversals** with confirmation from multiple indicators
✔ **Filter out weak trends** using ADX (Average Directional Index)
✔ **Add higher timeframe context** with MTF (Multi-TimeFrame) Moving Average
✔ **Reduce false signals** by requiring confluence between all three components
---
## **2. Core Logic & Components**
### **A. Supertrend (Base Indicator)**
- **Calculation:**
```pine
up = hl2 - (Multiplier * ATR(Periods))
dn = hl2 + (Multiplier * ATR(Periods))
```
- **Bullish trend** when price > `up` (green line)
- **Bearish trend** when price < `dn` (red line)
- **Why Supertrend?**
- Simple yet effective trend-following system
- Adapts to volatility via ATR (Average True Range)
---
### **B. ADX Filter (Trend Strength Confirmation)**
- **ADX Calculation:**
```pine
= calcADX(adxLength, adxSmoothing)
strongTrend = adxVal >= adxThreshold
```
- **ADX > Threshold (Default: 20)** = Strong trend
- **DI+ > DI-** = Bullish momentum
- **DI- > DI+** = Bearish momentum
- **Why ADX?**
- Avoids trading in choppy markets (low ADX = weak trend)
- Confirms if Supertrend signals occur in a strong trend
---
### **C. MTF MA Filter (Higher Timeframe Trend Alignment)**
- **Moving Average Calculation:**
```pine
= getMA(maSource, maLength, maType, maTF)
```
- **MA Type:** SMA, EMA, WMA, or DEMA
- **Timeframe:** Any (1m, 5m, 1H, 4H, D, W, M)
- **Trend Direction:**
- **Buy Signal:** MA must be **rising**
- **Sell Signal:** MA must be **falling**
- **Why MTF MA?**
- Aligns trades with the **higher timeframe trend**
- Reduces counter-trend entries
---
## **3. How to Use This Indicator**
### **A. Buy Conditions (All Must Be True)**
1. **Supertrend turns bullish** (price crosses above `up` line)
2. **ADX ≥ Threshold** (trend is strong)
3. **Higher timeframe MA is rising** (confirms bullish bias)
### **B. Sell Conditions (All Must Be True)**
1. **Supertrend turns bearish** (price crosses below `dn` line)
2. **ADX ≥ Threshold** (trend is strong)
3. **Higher timeframe MA is falling** (confirms bearish bias)
### **C. Recommended Settings**
| Parameter | Recommended Value | Description |
|-----------|------------------|-------------|
| **ATR Period** | 14 | Sensitivity of Supertrend |
| **Multiplier** | 1.5-3.0 | Adjust for volatility |
| **ADX Threshold** | 20-25 | Higher = stricter trend filter |
| **MA Length** | 20-50 | Smoothness of trend filter |
| **MA Timeframe** | 1H/D | Align with trading style |
---
## **4. Trading Strategies**
### **A. Trend-Following Strategy**
- **Enter:** When all 3 conditions align (Supertrend + ADX + MA)
- **Exit:** When Supertrend flips or ADX drops below threshold
### **B. Pullback Strategy**
- **Wait for:**
- Supertrend in trend direction
- ADX remains strong
- MA still aligned
- **Enter:** On pullback to Supertrend line
### **C. Multi-Timeframe Confirmation**
- **Intraday traders:** Use 4H/D MA for trend bias
- **Swing traders:** Use D/W MA for trend bias
---
## **5. Advantages Over Standard Supertrend**
✔ **Fewer false signals** (ADX filters weak trends)
✔ **Higher timeframe alignment** (avoids trading against larger trends)
✔ **Customizable MA types** (SMA, EMA, WMA, DEMA)
✔ **Works on all markets** (stocks, forex, crypto)
---
### **Final Thoughts**
This indicator is designed for traders who want **high-confidence trend signals** by combining:
🔹 **Supertrend** (entry trigger)
🔹 **ADX** (trend strength filter)
🔹 **MTF MA** (higher timeframe trend alignment)
By requiring all three components to align, it significantly improves signal quality compared to standalone Supertrend systems.
**→ Best for:** Swing trading, trend-following, and avoiding choppy markets.

[Pandora] Laguerre Ultimate Explorations MulticatorIt's time to begin demonstrations differentiating the difference between known and actual feasibility beyond imagination... Welcome to my algorithmic twilight zone .
INTRODUCTION:
Hot off my press, I present this Laguerre multicator employing PSv6.0, originally formulated by John Ehlers for TASC - July 2025 Traders Tips. Basically I transcended Ehlers' notions of transversal filtration with an overhaul of his Laguerre design with my "what if" Pandora notions included. Striving beyond John Ehlers' original intended design. This action packed indicator is a radically revamped version of his original filter using novel techniques. My aim was to explore whether providing even more enhanced responsiveness and lesser lag is possible and how. Presented here is my mind warping results to witness.
EHLERS' LAGUERRE EXPLAINED:
First and foremost, the concept of Ehlers' Laguerre-izing method deserves a comprehensive deep dive. Ehlers' Laguerre filter design, as it functions originally, begins with his Ultimate Smoother (US) followed by a gang of four LERP (jargon for Linear intERPolation) filters. Following a myriad of cascading LERPs is a window-like FIR filter tapped into the LERP delay values to provide extra smoothness via the output.
On a side note, damping factor controlled LERP filters resemble EMAs indeed, but aren't exactly "periodic" filters that would have a period/length parameter and their subsequent calculations. I won't go into fine-grained relationship details, but EMA and LERP are indeed related in approach, being cousins of similar pedigree.
EXAMINING LAGUERRE:
I focused firstly on US initialization obstacles at Pine's bar_index==0 with nz() in abundance. The next primary notion of intrigue I mostly wondered about was, why are there four LERP elements instead of fewer or more. Why not three or why not two LERPs, etc... 1-4-6-4-1, I remember seeing those coefficients before in high pass filters.
Gathering my thoughts from that highpass knowledge base, I devised other tapped configuration modes to inspect their behavior out of curiosity. Eureka! There is actually more to Laguerre than Ehlers' mind provided, now that I had formulated additional modes. Each mode exhibits it's own lag/smoothness characteristics better than the quad LERPed version. I narrowed it down to a total of 5 modes for exploration. Mode 0 is just the raw US by itself.
ANALYZING FILTER BEHAVIORS:
Which option might be possibly superior, and how may I determine that? Fortunately, I have a custom-built analyzer allowing me to thoroughly examine transient responses across multiple periodicities simultaneously, providing remarkable visual insights.
While Ehlers has meagerly touched upon presenting general frequency responses in his books, I have excelled far beyond that. This robust filter analysis capability enables me to observe finer aspects hidden to others, ultimately leading to the deprecation of numerous existing filters. Not only this, but inventing entirely new species of filtration whether lowpass, highpass, or bandpass is already possible with a thorough comprehensive evaluation.
Revealing what's quirky with each filter and having the ability to discover what filters may be lacking in performance, is one of it's implications. I'm just going to explain this: For example US has a little too much overshoot to my liking, along with nonconformant cutoff frequency compliance with the period parameter. Perhaps Ehlers should inspect US coefficients a bit closer... I hope stating this is not received in an ill manner, as it's not my intention here.
What this technically eludes to is that UltimateSmoother can be further improved, analogous to my Laguerre alterations described above. I will also state Laguerre can indeed be reformulated to an even greater extent concerning group delay, from what I have already discussed. Another exciting time though... More investigative research is warranted.
LAGUERRE CONCLUSIONS:
After analyzing Laguerre's frequency compliance, transient responses, amplitudes, lag, symmetry across periodicities, noise rejection, and smoothness... I favor mode 3 for a multitude of reasons over the mode 4 configuration, but mostly superb smoothing with less lag, AND I also appreciated mode 1 & 2 for it's lower lag performance options.
Each mode and lag (phase shift) damping value has it's own unique characteristics at extremes, yet they demonstrate additional finesse in it's new hybrid form without adding too much more complexity. This multicator has a bunch of Laguerre filters in the overlay chart over many periodicities so you can easily witness it's differing periodic symmetries on an input signal while adjusting lag and mode.
LAGUERRE OSCILLATOR:
The oscillator is integrated into the laguerreMulti() function for the intention of posterity only. I performed no evaluation on it, only providing the code in Pine. That wasn't part of my intended exploration adventure, as I'm more TREND oriented for the time being, focusing my efforts there.
Market analysis has two primary aspects in my observations, one cyclic while the other is trending dynamics... There's endless oscillators, but my expectations for trend analysis seems a little lesser explored in my opinion, hence my laborious trend endeavors. Ehlers provided both indicator facets this time around, and I hope you find the filtration aspect more intriguing after absorption of this reading.
FUNCTION MODULES EXPLAINED:
The Ultimate Smoother is an advanced IIR lowpass smoothing filter intended to minimize noise in time series data with minimal group delay, similar to a traditional biquad filter. This calculation helps to create a smoother version of the original signal without the distortions of short-term fluctuations and with minimal lag, adjustable by period.
The Modified Laguerre Lowpass Filter (MLLF) enhances the functionality of US by introducing a Laguerre mode parameter along side the lag parameter to refine control over the amount of additional smoothing/lag applied to the signal. By tethering US with this LERPed lag mechanism, MLLF achieves an effective balance between responsiveness and smoothness, allowing for customizable lag adjustments via multiple inputs. This filter ends with selecting from a choice of weighted averages derived from a gang of up to four cascading LERP calculations, resulting with smoother representations of the data.
The Laguerre Oscillator is a momentum-like indicator derived from the output of US and a singular LERPed lowpass filter. It calculates the difference between the US data and Laguerre filter data, normalizing it by the root mean square (RMS). This quasi-normalization technique helps to assess the intensity of the momentum on any timeframe within an expected bound range centered around 0.0. When the Laguerre Oscillator is positive, it suggests that the smoothed data is trending upward, while a negative value indicates a downward trend. Adjustability is controlled with period, lag, Laguerre mode, and RMS period.

1. Core Concept: Why Does This Indicator Exist?
Traditional momentum oscillators like RSI or Stochastic use a fixed "lookback period" (e.g., 14). This creates a fundamental problem: a 14-period setting that works well in a fast, trending market will generate constant false signals in a slow, choppy market, and vice-versa. The market's character is dynamic, but most tools are static.
The Apex Engine was built to solve this problem. Its primary innovation is a self-optimizing core that continuously adapts to changing market conditions. Instead of relying on one fixed setting, it actively tests three different momentum profiles (Fast, Mid, and Slow) in real-time and selects the one that is most synchronized with the current price action.
This is not just a random combination of indicators; it's a deliberate synthesis designed to create a more robust momentum tool. It combines:
Volatility analysis (ATR) to generate adaptive lookback periods.
Momentum measurement (ROC) to gauge the speed of price changes.
Statistical analysis (Correlation) to validate which momentum measurement is most effective right now.
Classic trend filters (Moving Average, ADX) to ensure signals are only taken in favorable market conditions.
The result is an oscillator that aims to be more responsive in volatile trends and more stable in quiet periods, providing a more intelligent and adaptive signal.
2. How It Works: The Engine's Three-Stage Process
To be transparent, it's important to understand the step-by-step logic the indicator follows on every bar. It's a process of Adapt -> Validate -> Signal.
Stage 1: Adapt (Dynamic Length Calculation)
The engine first measures market volatility using the Average True Range (ATR) relative to its own long-term average. This creates a volatility_factor. In high-volatility environments, this factor causes the base calculation lengths to shorten. In low-volatility, they lengthen. This produces three potential Rate of Change (ROC) lengths: dynamic_fast_len, dynamic_mid_len, and dynamic_slow_len.
Stage 2: Validate (Self-Optimizing Mode Selection)
This is the core of the engine. It calculates the ROC for all three dynamic lengths. To determine which is best, it uses the ta.correlation() function to measure how well each ROC's movement has correlated with the actual bar-to-bar price changes over the "Optimization Lookback" period. The ROC length with the highest correlation score is chosen as the most effective profile for the current moment. This "active" mode is reflected in the oscillator's color and the dashboard.
Stage 3: Signal (Normalized Velocity Oscillator)
The winning ROC series is then normalized into a consistent oscillator (the Velocity line) that ranges from -100 (extreme oversold) to +100 (extreme overbought). This ensures signals are comparable across any asset or timeframe. Signals are only generated when this Velocity line crosses its signal line and the trend filters (explained below) give a green light.
3. How to Use the Indicator: A Practical Guide
Reading the Visuals:
Velocity Line (Blue/Yellow/Pink): The main oscillator line. Its color indicates which mode is active (Fast, Mid, or Slow).
Signal Line (White): A moving average of the Velocity line. Crossovers generate potential signals.
Buy/Sell Triangles (▲ / ▼): These are your primary entry signals. They are intentionally strict and only appear when momentum, trend, and price action align.
Background Color (Green/Red/Gray): This is your trend context.
Green: Bullish trend confirmed (e.g., price above a rising 200 EMA and ADX > 20). Only Buy signals (▲) can appear.
Red: Bearish trend confirmed. Only Sell signals (▼) can appear.
Gray: No clear trend. The market is likely choppy or consolidating. No signals will appear; it is best to stay out.
Trading Strategy Example:
Wait for a colored background. A green or red background indicates the market is in a tradable trend.
Look for a signal. For a green background, wait for a lime Buy triangle (▲) to appear.
Confirm the trade. Before entering, confirm the signal aligns with your own analysis (e.g., support/resistance levels, chart patterns).
Manage the trade. Set a stop-loss according to your risk management rules. An exit can be considered on a fixed target, a trailing stop, or when an opposing signal appears.
4. Settings and Customization
This script is open-source, and its settings are transparent. You are encouraged to understand them.
Synaptic Engine Group:
Volatility Period: The master control for the adaptive engine. Higher values are slower and more stable.
Optimization Lookback: How many bars to use for the correlation check.
Switch Sensitivity: A buffer to prevent frantic switching between modes.
Advanced Configuration & Filters Group:
Price Source: The data source for momentum calculation (default close).
Trend Filter MA Type & Length: Define your long-term trend.
Filter by MA Slope: A key feature. If ON, allows for "buy the dip" entries below a rising MA. If OFF, it's stricter, requiring price to be above the MA.
ADX Length & Threshold: Filters out non-trending, choppy markets. Signals will not fire if the ADX is below this threshold.
5. Important Disclaimer
This indicator is a decision-support tool for discretionary traders, not an automated trading system or financial advice. Past performance is not indicative of future results. All trading involves substantial risk. You should always use proper risk management, including setting stop-losses, and never risk more than you are prepared to lose. The signals generated by this script should be used as one component of a broader trading plan.
Minimalist Trend & Risk For 5-Min Timeframe
Of course. Here is a professionally written TradingView description for your indicator, following the specified formatting and incorporating the strategy you outlined.
Minimalist Trend & Risk For 5-Min Timeframe
Overview
This is a clean, on-chart visual tool designed to identify high-probability entries and manage risk, specifically tailored for a 5-minute scalping or day trading strategy. It combines a higher-timeframe trend anchor with a current-timeframe trigger line and a volatility-based stop loss level, keeping your chart uncluttered and your decisions clear.
Visual Components
Trend EMA (50-period, 15-min): This is your main trend guide. The thick, colored line represents the 50 EMA from the 15-minute chart.
Green: Confirmed uptrend.
Red: Confirmed downtrend.
Gray: Neutral or consolidating market.
Price EMA (21-period, 5-min): The thin white line is the 21 EMA based on your current chart (5-minute). This acts as a dynamic trigger line that price must reclaim after a pullback.
Stop Loss Zone (ATR-based): The thin red line provides a suggested stop loss level based on current market volatility (ATR). It automatically appears below price in an uptrend and above price in a downtrend, helping you define your risk on every trade.
How To Use for a Long Entry Strategy
The strategy is to trade pullbacks in the direction of the higher-timeframe trend. This indicator helps you visualize each step of the setup.
1. Identify the Trend: Wait for the main Trend EMA (the thick line) to be green. This confirms you are in an established uptrend on the 15-minute timeframe and should only be looking for long entries.
2. Wait for a Pullback: The core of the strategy is patience. Wait for a 5-minute candlestick to pull back and close below the 15-minute Trend EMA. This confirms a temporary dip within the larger uptrend, offering a better entry price.
3. Spot the Entry Trigger: After the pullback, the entry signal occurs when a 5-minute candlestick closes back above the faster, white Price EMA (21-period). This signals that momentum is returning in the direction of the main trend.
4. Manage Your Risk: Use the red Stop Loss Zone line that appears below your entry as a guide to set your initial stop loss. This helps ensure your risk is managed dynamically based on current volatility.
This indicator simplifies a powerful pullback strategy by plotting all the necessary components directly on your chart, allowing for quick and disciplined trade execution.
