The document introduces the Trend Continuation Factor (TCF), an indicator based on an article by M. H. Pee. It presents TCF as a way to identify whether a trend is present and determine its direction, with the aim of helping traders avoid positions that run…
The expert advisor bases its signal on a change in the cloud color of the CCI Woodies indicator. It checks for that change when a bar closes, then forms a trading signal. An input option allows the user to invert the direction and trade against the…
This expert-advisor strategy combines two indicator signals across timeframes. ColorX2MA defines the slower trend, while ColorJJRSX identifies a change in the faster trend. It generates an entry at bar close when the fast and slow directions agree and the…
This document describes a chart indicator that displays candlesticks from a larger timeframe as filled rectangles. It uses the values of a 3-Line Break indicator to determine the rectangle colors: the candle body and shadows each receive colors based on…
This experimental DAX daily strategy uses a close-based two-day high as a breakout reference and enters long when the day's high exceeds it. It can add a position when price opens more than five points above the trade price, so exposure may grow as a move…
This Chinese equity screen selects stocks associated with the metaverse theme when the prior day's price is above the 250-day moving average and the stock did not hit its daily limit-up on the prior day. The moving-average condition is presented as a filter…
This Chinese equity screening idea combines a turnover filter with short-term weakness and a longer-term trend condition. It selects stocks with turnover between 3% and 12%, seven consecutive daily declines, and a rising 30-day moving average. The intended…
This Chinese equity strategy applies a simple Turtle-inspired rule to five named stocks. It defines a recent high using the highest closing price over 20 sessions and a recent low using the lowest close over 10 sessions. The stated rule buys when the high…
The document presents a long-only automated strategy for a mini S&P 500 instrument. Entries require the MACD line to be above its smoothed value, the stochastic to be above its average, price to remain above a moving average, and price to be below a custom…
This document explains an indicator that combines two XMUV moving averages with Momentum calculations using SMA and EMA smoothing. The momentum values are scaled to a range from -100 to +100, and a cloud displays the direction of the trend. Colored points…
The document describes a five-minute chart script that checks several technical indicators before displaying a buy or sell alert. A bullish condition requires price to be above the Bollinger middle band, two exponential moving averages, and Parabolic SAR,…
The document describes a Hilbert Oscillator indicator attributed to John Ehlers and presents it as a tool for spotting major market turning points. Its stated signal logic is based on the relationship between a blue and a red line: a crossover is interpreted…
The document describes an automated XAUUSD strategy on four-hour bars. It enters long when a completed candle breaks above the prior 20-bar high, provided the close is above a 200-period EMA. Position size is calculated from a one-percent balance risk and a…
This short description identifies Slope Direction Line as a trend indicator used by an automated trading system. It lists configurable inputs for calculating its moving averages: a period of 32, a filter size of 2, a linear-weighted averaging method by…
Powerplay is a rule-based signal that looks for two consecutive down or up sessions with above-average volume, then checks the close against the prior session’s low or high and its position relative to the 200-day moving average. For the long signal, price…
This article proposes screening Chinese stocks in the metaverse industry for an opening price near the 10-day moving average and an upwardly ordered set of moving averages. Its indicator example compares averages over 3, 5, 10, 20, and 30 days, requiring…
The indicator combines the high and low relative to a moving average into one oscillator. Bull Power is the high minus the average close, while Bear Power is the low minus the same average; adding them gives a net reading intended to reflect which side is…
This indicator variation calculates Heiken Ashi values from smoothed or filtered prices rather than raw prices. The document presents smoothing as a way to reduce some false signals and make the indicator easier to use. It offers four averaging choices:…
The indicator applies a Jurik Moving Average separately to high, low, close, and typical price. Its generic trend line is the smoothed typical price; the description notes that this differs from averaging the three separately smoothed high, low, and close…
This stock-selection approach screens for companies associated with the metaverse theme, then applies two trend filters: a rising 30-day moving average and weekly MACD above its zero line. The stated rationale is to focus on stocks in the chosen theme that…
This Chinese equity screen looks for stocks associated with the metaverse concept, priced below 12 yuan, with the 30-day moving average rising. The article presents the price threshold as a low-price filter and the moving-average condition as a way to favor…
This opinion article argues that many retail investors lose through overtrading, chasing short-term leaders, and expecting rapid gains. It recommends accepting limits in prediction and focusing instead on patiently waiting for a market, sector, or stock to…
