Trigger Line is described as a trend-following indicator built from a moving average and a smoothed version of that average. The document identifies the indicator’s core calculation concept, but does not specify the averaging periods, smoothing formula,…
This document presents a fractal-dimension calculation proposed by John Ehlers and Ric Way as a way to characterize whether price movement is trending or cycling. It starts with median price, applies a short weighted smoothing filter, and compares the price…
This ProOrder system takes long and short positions from an external Delphic-TP Combo indicator, with fast and slow simple moving averages used as reference lines. The author gives one daily-chart starting configuration and says the averages need retuning…
This indicator combines Wilder’s Average Directional Index with Bollinger Bands calculated around the ADX line. It displays ADX alongside the positive and negative directional indicators, using the bands to show whether measured trend strength is high or low…
This beginner overview surveys several approaches to quantitative stock selection: multi-factor scoring or regression, style rotation, money-flow signals, momentum and reversal, analyst consensus, ownership concentration, and trend following. For style…
This indicator description explains how a T3 trend tool can be displayed as an oscillator using floating levels. It can use an extended set of price inputs and identify changes through three kinds of events: crossing outer levels, crossing the middle or zero…
The note translates a familiar trend-following approach into rules: buy when a short moving average crosses above a longer one, then use a volatility-based trailing stop derived from a rolling standard deviation. The stop can move upward as its calculated…
This brief note proposes using smoothed Heiken Ashi values as the basis for a Heiken Ashi oscillator. Its stated motivation is that the regular oscillator produces many signals, making it difficult to use consistently. Smoothing before calculating the…
This indicator seeks breakout entries by requiring several conditions to align. A long signal uses a bullish candle whose body exceeds half its range, a close above the prior two highs, a 20-period average above a 50-period average, and RSI below 70. The…
The document describes an automated trading system that combines a drawn trend line with two moving averages. It trades in the direction of the trend, using the trend line as a filter alongside the averages. The system is intended for forex pairs and stocks,…
The document outlines a stock selection screen combining daily price range, a low share-price cutoff, and rising short-term moving averages. Its example implementation defines the range relative to closing price and requires a three-period average to exceed…
The document explains the Relative Strength Index (RSI) as a measure of recent price momentum, commonly used to identify potentially overbought or oversold conditions. It describes the conventional approach of looking to buy below an oversold threshold and…
This strategy uses Heiken Ashi candle color changes as entry signals and a moving average as a trend filter. It buys when the calculated Heiken Ashi close moves above its open after the prior bar showed the reverse relationship, provided the market is above…
This stock-selection rule looks for shares with daily amplitude above 1, a listing history longer than one year, and a previous close above the 250-day moving average. The article’s rationale is that a minimum amount of price movement filters out quieter…
This indicator estimates the angle of a moving average, smooths that measure, and uses its direction and magnitude to describe trend conditions. Rising readings are presented as strengthening trends, while falling readings suggest weakening momentum and…
This MetaTrader indicator combines a Bollinger Band and Keltner Channel squeeze with a histogram that measures trend direction and strength. When the Bollinger Bands sit inside the Keltner Channel, the display marks sideways conditions with thick blue bars.…
This MQL5 indicator description explains an alpha-beta filter that smooths price while estimating trend velocity. Each bar, it predicts price and velocity from the prior state, then updates both using the observed close and the prediction error. Alpha…
This indicator description presents a breakout system based on a channel drawn from price extrema over a period. When price moves outside the channel, candle colors indicate the trend direction: blue for rising and pink for falling. Color brightness adds a…
This indicator identifies a broad set of candlestick formations, including reversal patterns such as engulfing candles, stars, hammers, and multi-candle formations, as well as price gaps. It labels detected patterns on a chart and uses green or red arrows to…
This indicator description explains a zero-lag variant of the triple exponential moving average. It accepts a calculation period and an applied price as configurable inputs. The calculation builds a sequence of exponentially smoothed price series, combines…
This commodity research framework organizes iron ore price drivers into fundamental supply, demand, and inventory factors, alongside a separate sentiment category. It discusses practical handling of slower and irregularly updated fundamental data, including…
The document describes a Hull moving average variant whose calculation uses adjustable weights controlled by a power parameter. Setting the power to 1 reproduces the standard Hull moving average. Values below 1 slow the indicator, while values above 1 make…
This short description introduces ATRStops_v1, a trend indicator implemented using the NRTR form. It says the indicator uses Average True Range to construct a moving average, linking its trailing behavior to market volatility. The document identifies…
This stock screen combines a price-range filter, a 15-minute MACD histogram condition, and a moving-average trend filter. It seeks stocks with a range above one, a shrinking negative MACD histogram, and a short-term average above a longer-term average. The…
