The Vortex Difference oscillator displays the gap between the Vortex indicator's positive and negative components as a histogram. Its single input is the calculation period. The description explains that it computes the two components from absolute distances…
This description outlines a forex expert advisor built around a single 20-period moving average. It is presented for major currency pairs and multiple chart time frames, and the text says its decisions use the open price of the current candle. The listed…
This document presents two long-only trading systems built around the idea that price moves may continue when short-term momentum and average range accelerate relative to longer-term measures, while price direction agrees with a rising short moving average.…
This indicator adapts a single-state Kalman filter using Kaufman’s Efficiency Ratio (ER). Each bar’s ER scales process noise between configured bounds: high efficiency increases the Kalman gain so the estimate follows directional price action more closely,…
This document presents an adaptation of the Bollinger Bands Stops indicator for MetaTrader 5 that uses the Jurik Moving Average in its calculation. It describes two possible roles: identifying the estimated direction of the market as a trend indicator, or…
MaChannel is described as a trend indicator built from two moving averages presented in an NRTR-style channel. The averages use price-series highs and lows, so the construction tracks separate smoothed views of the upper and lower price data. The document…
InOutBar marks candles with colored arrows based on whether a selected higher-timeframe candle is higher or lower than the preceding candle. It provides a visual way to view higher-timeframe direction on a chart using the configured timeframe. The key…
This EURUSD strategy combines 15-period and 100-period moving averages to identify a directional crossover, then waits for price to move across the shorter average before entering. For a long trade, the fast average crosses above the slow one, price first…
The document describes a revised Skyscraper indicator, which uses NRTR-style lines to represent trend relative to price. In the original version, volatility for the current bar is calculated using all earlier chart bars. As more bars accumulate, the…
This stock screen selects shares based on the convergence of multiple moving averages, a minimum scale requirement, and an upward trend in the 30-day average. The article's proposed final version tightens the conditions to at least ten converging averages, a…
The indicator marks potential supply and demand zones after a crossover between fast and slow exponential moving averages. After a bullish crossover, it finds the lowest low in the preceding lookback and uses that bar’s low and candle body to define a demand…
The article presents a Chinese equity screening idea that combines three conditions: MACD above its zero line, a price-change and large-order-flow measure, and the 20-day moving average above the 120-day moving average. It frames the combination as a way to…
This indicator summarizes the direction of three linear regression series, calculated over different lookback periods, as a compact colored ribbon beneath the price chart. For each period, it compares the current regression value with the previous value and…
This Expert Advisor uses a Bezier indicator’s color change at bar close to generate trade signals. It follows the indicated trend and increases position volume when open profit, measured in points, passes a threshold set in the EA inputs. A position comment…
The AFL Winner indicator is described as a tool for identifying possible trend changes around established turnover areas at the negative and positive 50 levels. The document gives this threshold-based description as the indicator’s central trading concept,…
This Expert Advisor combines two indicators to identify trend-following entries. ColorX2MA sets the slower trend direction, while ColorJFatl signals a possible entry when the faster trend changes. A trade signal occurs at bar close when the indicator…
This Expert Advisor searches the previous 500 closing bars for price levels where closes cluster, then uses a cross of three moving averages of different lengths as a trend-development signal. After detecting a directional trend, it identifies the nearest…
This short specification explains how a Renko chart is constructed and how a Donchian Channel is aligned to its bricks. The horizontal axis tracks the sequence of Renko bricks rather than elapsed time. Bricks are built from incoming bid ticks using the…
This SuperTrend variation adapts its ATR multiplier to the ratio of current ATR to a smoothed ATR average, widening bands in relatively volatile conditions and narrowing them when volatility is subdued. It adds an ATR-based cushion beyond the band before…
This document describes an adaptive Laguerre filter based on a method attributed to John Ehlers. It says the implementation supports Laguerre polynomials of different orders, with order four as the default. Adaptation can be controlled through a smoothing…
The document describes a modified Aroon oscillator intended to react more quickly to trend changes while smoothing noise. It starts from the difference between Aroon Up and Aroon Down, applies an exponential moving average, and tests a range of gain values…
The document critiques trend lines built from DeMark pivot points or Bill Williams fractals when key points are identified using only a minimum-bar rule. It proposes removing that minimum and defining a point's dimension as the smallest count of bars on…
This system combines the direction of an X-day average of closing prices with price comparisons over two lookback intervals. A buy setup requires the average to be higher than it was Y days earlier, while the latest close is below its level Y days earlier…
This example implements an intraday breakout strategy around the prior session’s high and low. It opens a long position when the latest price rises above the prior high and a short when it falls below the prior low, targeting a fixed position size in either…
