This indicator constructs Heikin-Ashi values from open, high, low, and close prices, then smooths each component using a configurable average type and period. It draws candles using the smoothed open and close, while the channel boundaries come from the…
This document describes an Expert Advisor built around a moving average with a fixed period of 55. Users can adjust its timeframe, horizontal shift, smoothing method, and applied price. The EA checks for signals only when a new bar forms and during a…
This strategy uses a market regime filter built from momentum across 11 sector and style ETFs. It measures each ETF against a 25-day moving average and treats the broad market as showing momentum when at least six ETFs qualify. The portfolio buys small-cap…
The document briefly describes a Color Schaff DeMarker Trend Cycle indicator. It characterizes the indicator as a Schaff Trend Cycle variant built from the difference between two DeMarker oscillators using different periods. This provides a high-level…
The Simple Decycler adapts John Ehlers’s high-pass filtering method to identify broad price trends while reducing short-wavelength fluctuations. It calculates a high-pass filter from the price series and subtracts that output from price, leaving a smoothed…
This brief description presents a variation on the stochastic indicator. Instead of relying on the usual signal line, it uses normalized zones to help identify the prevailing trend and assess how much strength may remain in a trend change. The document…
This Expert Advisor uses fast and slow moving averages to determine direction. It opens a buy when the fast average is above the slow average by a configurable minimum distance, and a sell under the opposite condition. The EA can close or retain existing…
The NRTR indicator tracks price extremes using highs and lows, maintaining a preset distance from the most recently reached extreme. In an uptrend it appears below price, while in a downtrend it appears above price. The offset is intended to ignore modest…
The document introduces a moving-average arrangement scoring model, or MASS, that assesses market direction and trend strength from the relative ordering of multiple moving averages. It aims to combine the smoothness of longer averages with the quicker…
The document introduces a gradient version of a double-smoothed exponential moving average. It distinguishes this indicator from the commonly named double EMA, noting that the calculation differs despite the similar name. The author characterizes it as…
The Laguerre indicator described here plots a weighted trendline in a separate chart window and is presented as a possible aid for simple entry and exit signals. It is custom-built and does not depend on the standard MetaTrader indicators. The page says…
This intraday Germany 30 strategy combines the direction of a 20-period moving average with 12-period momentum and a 20-period RSI. It opens long positions when price is above the average, momentum is rising across recent readings, and RSI crosses above 70.…
This brief indicator description explains how StepMA_3D_v3 visualizes the relationship between three trend speeds. It colors the area between the medium and slow trends, then changes the fast trend line’s color according to its position. The display is…
This indicator description presents an adaptation of a double-smoothed Wilder exponential moving average. It adds a volatility-ratio mode to adjust the average and a correction method attributed in the source to Alexander Uhl. The suggested use is similar to…
The indicator described here combines readings from seven HighsLowsSignal indicators calculated on different timeframes. It displays a separate line for each component, with line color reflecting the direction of that indicator’s most recent signal. The…
This strategy selects liquid U.S.-listed stocks above a minimum price and enters when a stock’s closing price reaches or exceeds its previous highest close. It holds qualifying positions in an equally weighted portfolio, adjusts allocations daily, and uses a…
The Market Mode indicator adapts John Ehlers’ phase-based approach to classify market conditions. It applies a filter to the midpoint of each bar, smooths the resulting oscillator, and compares it with adaptive upper and lower thresholds. A move above the…
This indicator description defines a moving average built from Heiken Ashi candle values. It exposes two settings: the calculation period and the averaging method. First, it calculates a moving average of the Heiken Ashi close; it then applies the same…
The Elliott Wave Oscillator is presented as a tool to help confirm an Elliott wave count made by the trader. It does not identify or count waves automatically. The indicator uses differently colored bars to make possible trend changes easier to notice and…
This document outlines an A-share screen that combines membership in the metaverse theme, a share price above its 250-day moving average, and a revenue comparison requiring the 2021 figure to exceed the 2018 figure by a stated threshold. The theme identifies…
The document presents a custom trend indicator that combines STE with a three-bar trailing stop associated with Larry Williams. Its stated aim is to anticipate directional changes and make larger trends easier to follow than with the author's earlier…
This Freqtrade strategy seeks long entries after short-term weakness while using a higher timeframe trend filter. On the five-minute chart, it looks for either a close near a recent low and below the lower Bollinger Band, or a multi-bar decline followed by a…
The HWC indicator is described as a channel around a Holt-Winters moving average. Its upper and lower boundaries are formed by adding and subtracting a scaled estimate of dispersion from the central average. The moving average uses parameters for smoothing…
