1. INDICATOR OVERVIEW & CORE FUNCTIONALITY
------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
The LOI indicator combines multiple VWAP calculations with moving averages across different timeframes. It's designed to show where institutional money is flowing and help identify key support and resistance levels that actually matter in today's markets.
Primary Functions:
- Multi-timeframe VWAP analysis (Daily, Weekly, Monthly, Yearly)
- Advanced moving average integration (EMA, SMA, HMA)
- Real-time trend direction detection
- Institutional flow analysis
- Dynamic support/resistance identification
Target Users: Day traders, swing traders, position traders, and institutional analysts seeking comprehensive market structure analysis.
------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
2. VWAP FOUNDATION & HISTORICAL CONTEXT
------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Historical Development: VWAP started in the 1980s when big institutional traders needed a way to measure if they were getting good fills on their massive orders. Unlike regular price averages, VWAP weighs each price by the volume traded at that level. This makes it incredibly useful because it shows you where most of the real money changed hands.
Mathematical Foundation: The basic math is simple: you take each price, multiply it by the volume at that price, add them all up, then divide by total volume. What you get is the true "average" price that reflects actual trading activity, not just random price movements.
Formula: VWAP = Σ(Price × Volume) / Σ(Volume)
Where typical price = (High + Low + Close) / 3
Institutional Behavior Patterns:
- When price trades above VWAP, institutions often look to sell
- When it's below, they're usually buying
- Creates natural support and resistance that you can actually trade against
- Serves as benchmark for execution quality assessment
------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
3. MULTI-TIMEFRAME VWAP ANALYSIS
------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Core Innovation: Here's where LOI gets interesting. Instead of just showing daily VWAP like most indicators, it displays four different timeframes simultaneously:
**Daily VWAP Implementation**:
- Resets every morning at market open
- Provides clearest picture of intraday institutional sentiment
- Primary tool for day trading strategies
- Most responsive to immediate market conditions
**Weekly VWAP System**:
- Resets each Monday (or first trading day)
- Smooths out daily noise and volatility
- Perfect for swing trades lasting several days to weeks
- Captures weekly institutional positioning
**Monthly VWAP Analysis**:
- Resets at beginning of each calendar month
- Captures bigger institutional rebalancing at month-end
- Fund managers often operate on monthly mandates
- Significant weight in intermediate-term analysis
**Yearly VWAP Perspective**:
- Resets annually for full-year institutional view
- Shows long-term institutional positioning
- Where pension funds and sovereign wealth funds operate
- Critical for major trend identification
Confluence Zone Theory: The magic happens when multiple VWAP levels cluster together. These confluence zones often become major turning points because different types of institutional money all see value at the same price.
------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
4. MOVING AVERAGE INTEGRATION SYSTEM
------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Multi-Type Implementation: The indicator includes three types of moving averages, each with its own personality and application:
**Exponential Moving Averages (EMAs)**:
- React quickly to recent price changes
- Displayed as solid lines for easy identification
- Optimal performance in trending market conditions
- Higher sensitivity to current price action
**Simple Moving Averages (SMAs)**:
- Treat all historical data points equally
- Appear as dashed lines in visual display
- Slower response but more reliable in choppy conditions
- Traditional approach favored by institutional traders
**Hull Moving Averages (HMAs)**:
- Newest addition to the system (dotted line display)
- Created by Alan Hull in 2005
- Solves classic moving average dilemma: speed vs. accuracy
- Manages to be both responsive and smooth simultaneously
Technical Innovation: Alan Hull's solution addresses the fundamental problem where moving averages are either too slow (missing moves) or too fast (generating false signals). HMAs achieve optimal balance through weighted calculation methodology.
Period Configuration:
- 5-period: Short-term momentum assessment
- 50-period: Intermediate trend identification
- 200-period: Long-term directional confirmation
------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
5. TREND DIRECTION SIGNAL DETECTION
------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Real-Time Momentum Analysis: One of LOI's best features is its real-time trend detection system. Next to each moving average, visual symbols provide immediate trend assessment:
Symbol System:
- ▲ Rising average (bullish momentum confirmation)
- ▼ Falling average (bearish momentum indication)
- ► Flat average (consolidation or indecision period)
Update Frequency: These signals update in real-time with each new price tick and function across all configured timeframes. Traders can quickly scan daily and weekly trends to assess alignment or conflicting signals.
Multi-Timeframe Trend Analysis:
- Simultaneous daily and weekly trend comparison
- Immediate identification of trend alignment
- Early warning system for potential reversals
- Momentum confirmation for entry decisions
------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
6. VISUAL DESIGN & DISPLAY FEATURES
------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Color Psychology Framework: The color scheme isn't random but based on psychological associations and trading conventions:
- **Blue Tones**: Institutional neutrality (VWAP levels)
- **Green Spectrum**: Growth and stability (weekly timeframes)
- **Purple Range**: Longer-term sophistication (monthly analysis)
- **Orange Hues**: Importance and attention (yearly perspective)
- **Red Tones**: User-defined significance (custom levels)
Adaptive Display Technology: The indicator automatically adjusts decimal places based on the instrument you're trading. High-priced stocks show 2 decimals, while penny stocks might show 8. This keeps the display incredibly clean regardless of what you're analyzing - no cluttered charts or overwhelming information overload.
Smart Labeling System: Advanced positioning algorithm automatically spaces all elements to prevent overlap, even during extreme zoom levels or multiple timeframe analysis. Every level stays clearly readable without any visual chaos disrupting your analysis.
------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
7. CUSTOM LEVEL INTEGRATION
------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
User-Defined Level System: Beyond the calculated VWAP and moving average levels, traders can add custom horizontal lines at any price point for personalized analysis.
Strategic Applications:
- **Psychological Levels**: Round numbers, previous significant highs/lows
- **Technical Levels**: Fibonacci retracements, pivot points
- **Fundamental Targets**: Analyst price targets, earnings estimates
- **Risk Management**: Stop-loss and take-profit zones
Integration Features:
- Seamless incorporation with smart labeling system
- Custom color selection for visual organization
- Extension capabilities across all chart timeframes
- Maintains display clarity with existing indicators
------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
8. REPAINT PROTECTION TECHNOLOGY
------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Critical Trading Feature: This addresses one of the most significant issues in live trading applications. Most multi-timeframe indicators "repaint," meaning they display different signals when viewing historical data versus real-time analysis.
Protection Benefits:
- Ensures every displayed signal could have been traded when it appeared
- Eliminates discrepancies between historical and live analysis
- Provides realistic performance expectations
- Maintains signal integrity across chart refreshes
Configuration Options:
- **Protection Enabled**: Default setting for live trading
- **Protection Disabled**: Available for backtesting analysis
- User-selectable toggle based on analysis requirements
- Applies to all multi-timeframe calculations
Implementation Note: With protection enabled, signals may appear one bar later than without protection, but this ensures all signals represent actionable opportunities that could have been executed in real-time market conditions.
------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
9. PRACTICAL TRADING APPLICATIONS
------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
**Day Trading Strategy**:
Focus on daily VWAP with 5-period moving averages. Look for bounces off VWAP or breaks through it with volume. Short-term momentum signals provide entry and exit timing.
**Swing Trading Approach**:
Weekly VWAP becomes your primary anchor point, with 50-period averages showing intermediate trends. Position sizing based on weekly VWAP distance.
**Position Trading Method**:
Monthly and yearly VWAP provide broad market context, while 200-period averages confirm long-term directional bias. Suitable for multi-week to multi-month holdings.
**Multi-Timeframe Confluence Strategy**:
The highest-probability setups occur when daily, weekly, and monthly VWAPs cluster together, especially when multiple moving averages confirm the same direction. These represent institutional consensus zones.
Risk Management Integration:
- VWAP levels serve as dynamic stop-loss references
- Multiple timeframe confirmation reduces false signals
- Institutional flow analysis improves position sizing decisions
- Trend direction signals optimize entry and exit timing
------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
10. SETUP & CONFIGURATION RECOMMENDATIONS
------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Initial Configuration: Start with default settings and adjust based on individual trading style and market focus. Short-term traders should emphasize daily and weekly timeframes, while longer-term investors benefit from monthly and yearly level analysis.
Transparency Optimization: The transparency settings allow clear price action visibility while maintaining level reference points. Most traders find 70-80% transparency optimal - it provides a clean, unobstructed view of price movement while maintaining all critical reference levels needed for analysis.
Integration Strategy: Remember that no indicator functions effectively in isolation. LOI provides excellent context for institutional flow and trend direction analysis, but should be combined with complementary analysis tools for optimal results.
Performance Considerations:
- Multiple timeframe calculations may impact chart loading speed
- Adjust displayed timeframes based on trading frequency
- Customize color schemes for different market sessions
- Regular review and adjustment of custom levels
------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
FINAL ANALYSIS
------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Competitive Advantage: What makes LOI different is its focus on where real money actually trades. By combining volume-weighted calculations with multiple timeframes and trend detection, it cuts through market noise to show you what institutions are really doing.
Key Success Factor: Understanding that different timeframes serve different purposes is essential. Use them together to build a complete picture of market structure, then execute trades accordingly.
The integration of institutional flow analysis with technical trend detection creates a comprehensive trading tool that addresses both short-term tactical decisions and longer-term strategic positioning.

Hull Moving Average (HMA)
Hull MA Channel with Filtered CrossoversI've created an indicator that let's you create a HMA channel with 2 displaced HMA (A/B). As well as a HMA crossover set (C/D).
Here's how it works:
The HMA crossovers from C and D will not signal unless they are outside of the channel of A and B. As a matter of fact, NO buy signal whatsoever will occur above the channel and NO sell signal will occur below the channel.
The crossover HMA pair (C/D) can have their lengths adjusted to the 0.00 decimal point for VERY fine tuning of the crossovers.
(edit-it doesn't fine tune to the .00. This must not be a feature that is able to be utilized. I tried) The length adjustment still works to the nearest whole number. The .00 are mute :(
In keeping with that same logic, you can adjust the displacement of the channel independently to the 0.00 decimal, again for VERY fine tuning.
This is great for reversals while eliminating noise from false signals, keeping the chart nice and clean. Should be used in combination with other indicators for the best confirmations.
Hull-Exponential Moving Average (HEMA)The Hull Exponential Moving Average (HEMA) is an experimental technical indicator that uses a sequence of Exponential Moving Averages (EMAs) with the same logic as HMA - except with EMAs and not WMAs. It aims to create a responsive yet smooth trend indicator than HMA.
HEMA applies a multi-stage EMA process. Initial EMAs are calculated using alphas derived from logarithmic relationships and the input period. Their outputs are then combined in a de-lagging step, which itself uses a logarithmically derived ratio. A final EMA smoothing pass is then applied to this de-lagged series. This creates a moving average that responds quickly to genuine price changes while maintaining effective noise filtering. The specific alpha calculations and the de-lagging formula contribute to its balance between responsiveness and smoothness.
▶️ **Core Concepts**
Logarithmically-derived alphas: Alpha values for the three EMA stages are derived using natural logarithms and specific formulas related to the input period **N**.
Three-stage EMA process: The calculation involves:
An initial EMA (using **αS**) on the source data.
A second EMA (using **αF**) also on the source data.
A de-lagging step that combines the outputs of the first two EMAs using a specific ratio **r**.
A final EMA (using **αFin**) applied to the de-lagged series.
Specific de-lagging formula: Utilizes a constant ratio **r = ln(2.0) / (1.0 + ln(2.0))** to combine the outputs of the first two EMAs, aiming to reduce lag.
Optimized final smoothing: The alpha for the final EMA (**αFin**) is calculated based on the square root of the period **N**.
Warmup compensation: The internal EMA calculations include a warmup mechanism to provide more accurate values from the initial bars. This involves tracking decay factors (**eS**, **eF**, **eFin**) and applying a compensation factor **1.0 / (1.0 - e_decay)** during the warmup period. A shared warmup duration is determined by the smallest alpha among the three stages.
HEMA achieves its characteristics through this multi-stage EMA process, where the specific alpha calculations and the de-lagging step are key to its responsiveness and smoothness.
▶️ **Common Settings and Parameters**
Period (**N**): Default: 10 | Base lookback period for all alpha calculations | When to Adjust: Increase for longer-term trends and more smoothness, decrease for shorter-term signals and more responsiveness
Source: Default: Close | Data point used for calculation | When to Adjust: Change to HL2, HLC3, or OHLC4 for different price representations
Pro Tip: The HEMA's behavior is sensitive to the **Period** setting due to the non-linear relationships in its alpha calculations. Experiment with values around your typical MA periods. Small changes in **N** can have a noticeable impact, especially for smaller **N** values.
▶️ **Calculation and Mathematical Foundation**
Simplified explanation:
HEMA calculates its value through a sequence of three Exponential Moving Averages (EMAs) with specially derived smoothing factors (alphas).
Two initial EMAs are calculated from the source price, using alphas **αS** and **αF**.
The outputs of these two EMAs are combined into a "de-lagged" series.
This de-lagged series is then smoothed by a third EMA, using alpha **αFin**, to produce the final HEMA value.
All internal EMAs use a warmup compensation mechanism for improved accuracy on early bars.
Technical formula (let **N** be the input period):
1. Alpha for the first EMA (slow component related):
αS = 3.0 / (2.0 * N - 1.0)
2. Lambda for **αS** (intermediate value):
λS = -ln(1.0 - αS)
Note: **αS** must be less than 1, which implies 2N-1 > 3 or N > 2 for **λS** to be well-defined without NaN from ln of non-positive number. The code uses nz() for robustness but the formula implies this constraint.
3. De-lagging ratio **r**:
r = ln(2.0) / (1.0 + ln(2.0))
(This is a constant, approximately 0.409365)
4. Alpha for the second EMA (fast component related):
αF = 1.0 - exp(-λS / r)
5. Alpha for the final EMA smoothing:
αFin = 2.0 / (sqrt(N) / 2.0 + 1.0)
6. Applying the stages:
**OutputS = EMA_internal(source, αS, eS_state, emaS_state)**
**OutputF = EMA_internal(source, αF, eF_state, emaF_state)**
8. Calculate the de-lagged series:
DeLag = (OutputF / (1.0 - r)) - (r * OutputS / (1.0 - r))
9. Calculate the final HEMA:
HEMA = EMA_internal(DeLag, αFin, eFin_state, emaFin_state)
🔍 Technical Note: The HEMA implementation uses a shared warmup period controlled by **aMin** (the minimum of **αS**, **αF**, **αFin**). During this period, each internal EMA stage still tracks its own decay factor (**eS**, **eF**, **eFin**) to apply the correct compensation. The **nz()** function is used in the code to handle potential NaN values from alpha calculations if **N** is very small (e.g., **N=1** would make **αS=3**, **1-αS = -2**, **ln(-2)** is NaN).
▶️ **Interpretation Details**
HEMA provides several key insights for traders:
When price crosses above HEMA, it often signals the beginning of an uptrend
When price crosses below HEMA, it often signals the beginning of a downtrend
The slope of HEMA provides insight into trend strength and momentum
HEMA creates smooth dynamic support and resistance levels during trends
Multiple HEMA lines with different periods can identify potential reversal zones
HEMA is particularly effective for trend following strategies where both responsiveness and noise reduction are important. It provides earlier signals than traditional EMAs while exhibiting less whipsaw than standard HMA in choppy market conditions. The indicator excels at identifying the underlying trend direction while filtering out minor price fluctuations.
▶️ **Limitations and Considerations**
Experimental nature: As an experimental indicator, HEMA may behave differently from established HMA in certain market conditions
Lag characteristics: While designed to reduce lag, HEMA may exhibit slightly more lag than HMA in some scenarios due to the long tail of EMA
Mathematical complexity: The multi-stage calculation with specialized alpha parameters makes the behavior less intuitive to understand
Parameter sensitivity: Performance can vary significantly with different period settings
Complementary tools: Works best when combined with volume analysis or momentum indicators for confirmation

UT Bot + Hull MA Confirmed Signal DelayOverview
This indicator is designed to detect high-probability reversal entry signals by combining "UT Bot Alerts" (UT Bot Alerts script adapted from QuantNomad - Originally developed by Yo_adriiiiaan and idea of original code for "UT Bot Alerts" from HPotter ) with confirmation from a Hull Moving Average (HMA) Developed by Alan Hull . It focuses on capturing momentum shifts that often precede trend reversals, helping traders identify potential entry points while filtering out false signals.
🔍 How It Works
This strategy operates in two stages:
1. UT Bot Momentum Trigger
The foundation of this script is the "UT Bot Alerts" , which uses an ATR-based trailing stop to detect momentum changes. Specifically:
The script calculates a dynamic stop level based on the Average True Range (ATR) multiplied by a user-defined sensitivity factor (Key Value).
When price closes above this trailing stop and the short-term EMA crosses above the stop, a potential buy setup is triggered.
Conversely, when price closes below the trailing stop and the short-term EMA crosses below, a potential sell setup is triggered.
These UT Bot alerts are designed to identify the initial shift in market direction, acting as the first filter in the signal process.
2. Hull MA Confirmation
To reduce noise and false triggers from the UT Bot alone, this script delays the entry signal until price confirms the move by crossing the Hull Moving Average (or its variants: HMA, THMA, EHMA) in the same direction as the UT Bot trigger:
A Buy Signal is generated only when:
A UT Bot Buy condition is active, and
The price closes above the Hull MA.
Or, if a UT Bot Buy condition was recently triggered but price hadn’t yet crossed above the Hull MA, a delayed buy is signaled when price finally breaks above it.
A Sell Signal is generated only when:
A UT Bot Sell condition is active, and
The price closes below the Hull MA.
Similarly, a delayed sell signal can occur if price breaks below the Hull MA shortly after a UT Bot Sell trigger.
This dual-confirmation process helps traders avoid premature entries and improves the reliability of reversal signals.
📈 Best Use Cases
Reversal Trading: This strategy is particularly well-suited for catching early trend reversals rather than trend continuations. It excels at identifying momentum pivots that occur after pullbacks or exhaustion moves.
Heikin Ashi Charts Recommended: The script offers a Heikin Ashi mode for smoothing out noise and enhancing visual clarity. Using Heikin Ashi candles can further reduce whipsaws and highlight cleaner shifts in trend direction.
MACD Alignment: For best results, trade in the direction of the MACD trend or use it as a filter to avoid counter-trend trades.
⚠️ Important Notes
Entry Signals Only: This indicator only plots entry points (Buy and Sell signals). It does not define exit strategies, so users should manage trades manually using trailing stops, profit targets, or other exit indicators.
No Signal = No Confirmation: You may see a UT Bot trigger without a corresponding Buy/Sell signal. This means the price did not confirm the move by crossing the Hull MA, and therefore the setup was considered too weak or incomplete.
⚙️ Customization
UT Bot Sensitivity: Adjust the “Key Value” and “ATR Period” to make the UT Bot more or less reactive to price action.
Use Heikin Ashi: Toggle between standard candles or Heikin Ashi in the indicator settings for a smoother trading experience.
The HMA length may also be modified in the indicator settings from its standard 55 length to increase or decrease the sensitivity of signal.
This strategy is best used by traders looking for a structured, logic-based way to enter early into reversals with added confirmation to reduce risk. By combining two independent systems—momentum detection (UT Bot) and trend confirmation (Hull MA)—it aims to provide high-confidence entries without overwhelming complexity.
Let the indicator guide your entries—you manage the exits.
Examples of use:
Futures:
Stock:
Crypto:
As shown in the snapshots this strategy, like most, works the best when price action has a sizeable ATR and works the least when price is choppy. Therefore it is always best to use this system when price is coming off known support or resistance levels and when it is seen to respect short term EMA's like the 9 or 15.
My personal preference to use this system is for day trading on a 3 or 5 minute chart. But it is valid for all timeframes and simply marks a high probability for a new trend to form.

HMA Breakdown [NLR]Hull Moving Average (HMA) is a great trend-following tool — it's smooth, fast, and more responsive than traditional MAs like EMA or SMA. But the problem?
Sometimes it gives signals that look sharp but are misleading — especially in noisy markets or when the price is chopping around.
This script breaks down the inner mechanics of the HMA to give you more context:
Are the inputs to HMA actually diverging?
Is there momentum behind the move?
Is this trend about to reverse or just a pullback?
By plotting the components of HMA — and layering signal bands, color logic, and optional trend overlays — it gives you a visual breakdown of what's really going on under the hood.
What this indicator shows
HMA Trend (Main Line)
The Hull Moving Average (HMA) is plotted in bold, colored red or green based on internal conditions (not just price slope).
WMA Components (Fast & Slow)
Shows the two WMAs used inside the HMA calculation:
WMA Half (faster) — reacts quickly to price
WMA Full (slower) — smoother, less reactive
Their difference and crossover gives you clues on whether momentum is building or fading.
Signal & Band Structure
A calculated upper band and lower band are used to track when HMA is leading or lagging momentum.
When the HMA is below the band, trend may be weakening - this helps you filter false signals.
TMA Candle (Optional Visual)
A synthetic candle shows whether the smoothed average is rising or falling compared to a few candles back.
This is a simple visual cue to spot inflection points in the trend.
EMA Trend Overlay (Optional)
A pair of short-term EMAs built on a smoothed source helps you catch micro-trends or align your entries with the bigger trend.
Can act as an early heads-up or a trend confirmation layer.
What problem it solves
Noisy Signals: Helps filter out weak or fake trend signals often seen in HMA-only systems.
Visual Breakdown: Lets you see how each component of the HMA is behaving — so you’re not flying blind.
Momentum Confirmation: Adds layered confirmation using fast-vs-slow WMA cross, signal bands, and mini trend overlays.
Best Used For:
Trend-following traders who use HMA or WMA strategies
Filtering entries/exits in momentum-based systems
Visually confirming when a trend is real vs fake
Triangular Hull Moving Average [BigBeluga X PineIndicators]This strategy is based on the original Triangular Hull Moving Average (THMA) + Volatility indicator by BigBeluga. Full credit for the concept and design goes to BigBeluga.
The strategy blends smoothed trend-following logic using a Triangular Hull Moving Average with dynamic volatility overlays, providing actionable trade signals with responsive visual feedback. It's designed for traders who want a non-lagging trend filter while also monitoring market volatility in real time.
How the Strategy Works
1. Triangular Hull Moving Average (THMA) Core
At its core, the strategy uses a Triangular Hull Moving Average (THMA) — a variation of the traditional Hull Moving Average with triple-smoothing logic:
It combines multiple weighted moving averages (WMAs) to create a faster and smoother trend line.
This reduces lag without compromising trend accuracy.
The THMA reacts more responsively to price movements than classic MAs.
THMA Formula:
thma(_src, _length) =>
ta.wma(ta.wma(_src,_length / 3) * 3 - ta.wma(_src, _length / 2) - ta.wma(_src, _length), _length)
This logic filters out short-term noise while still being sensitive to genuine trend shifts.
2. Volatility-Enhanced Candle Plotting
An optional volatility mode overlays the chart with custom candles that incorporate volatility bands:
Wicks expand and contract dynamically based on market volatility.
The volatility value is computed using a HMA of high-low range over a user-defined length.
The candle bodies reflect THMA values, while the wicks reflect the current volatility spread.
This feature allows traders to visually gauge the strength of price moves and anticipate possible breakouts or slowdowns.
3. Trend Reversal Signal Detection
The strategy identifies trend reversals when the THMA line crosses over/under its own past value:
A bullish signal is triggered when THMA crosses above its value from two bars ago.
A bearish signal is triggered when THMA crosses below its value from two bars ago.
These shifts are marked on the chart with triangle-shaped signals for clear visibility.
This logic helps detect momentum shifts early and enables reactive trade entries.
Trade Entry & Exit Logic
Trade Modes Supported
Users can choose between:
Only Long – Enters long trades only.
Only Short – Enters short trades only.
Long & Short – Enables both directions.
Entry Conditions
Long Entry:
Triggered when a bullish crossover is detected.
Active only if the strategy mode allows long trades.
Short Entry:
Triggered when a bearish crossover is detected.
Active only if the strategy mode allows short trades.
Exit Conditions
In Only Long mode, the strategy closes long positions when a bearish signal appears.
In Only Short mode, the strategy closes short positions when a bullish signal appears.
In Long & Short mode, the strategy does not auto-close positions — instead, it opens new positions on each confirmed signal.
Dashboard Visualization
In the bottom-right corner of the chart, a live dashboard displays:
The current trend direction (🢁 for bullish, 🢃 for bearish).
The current volatility level as a percentage.
This helps traders quickly assess market status and adjust their decisions accordingly.
Customization Options
THMA Length: Adjust how smooth or reactive the trend detection should be.
Volatility Toggle & Length: Enable or disable volatility visualization and set sensitivity.
Color Settings: Choose colors for up/down trend visualization.
Trade Direction Mode: Limit the strategy to long, short, or both types of trades.
Use Cases & Strategy Strengths
1. Trend Following

SMIIOLThis indicator generates long signals.
The operation of the indicator is as follows;
First, true strength index is calculated with closing prices. We call this the "ergodic" curve.
Then the average of the ergodic (ema) is calculated to obtain the "signal" curve.
To calculate the "oscillator", the signal is subtracted from ergodic (oscillator = ergodic - signal).
The last variable to be used in the calculation is the average volume, calculated with sma.
Calculation for long signal;
- If the ergodic curve cross up the lower band and,
- If the hma slope is positive,
If all the above conditions are fullfilled, the long input signal is issued with "Buy" label.
Hull Moving Average Adaptive RSI (Ehlers)Hull Moving Average Adaptive RSI (Ehlers)
The Hull Moving Average Adaptive RSI (Ehlers) is an enhanced trend-following indicator designed to provide a smooth and responsive view of price movement while incorporating an additional momentum-based analysis using the Adaptive RSI.
Principle and Advantages of the Hull Moving Average:
- The Hull Moving Average (HMA) is known for its ability to track price action with minimal lag while maintaining a smooth curve.
- Unlike traditional moving averages, the HMA significantly reduces noise and responds faster to market trends, making it highly effective for detecting trend direction and changes.
- It achieves this by applying a weighted moving average calculation that emphasizes recent price movements while smoothing out fluctuations.
Why the Adaptive RSI Was Added:
- The core HMA line remains the foundation of the indicator, but an additional analysis using the Adaptive RSI has been integrated to provide more meaningful insights into momentum shifts.
- The Adaptive RSI is a modified version of the traditional Relative Strength Index that dynamically adjusts its sensitivity based on market volatility.
- By incorporating the Adaptive RSI, the HMA visually represents whether momentum is strengthening or weakening, offering a complementary layer of analysis.
How the Adaptive RSI Influences the Indicator:
- High Adaptive RSI (above 65): The market may be overbought, or bullish momentum could be fading. The HMA turns shades of red, signaling a possible exhaustion phase or potential reversals.
- Neutral Adaptive RSI (around 50): The market is in a balanced state, meaning neither buyers nor sellers are in clear control. The HMA takes on grayish tones to indicate this consolidation.
- Low Adaptive RSI (below 35): The market may be oversold, or bearish momentum could be weakening. The HMA shifts to shades of blue, highlighting potential recovery zones or trend slowdowns.
Why This Combination is Powerful:
- While the HMA excels in tracking trends and reducing lag, it does not provide information about momentum strength on its own.
- The Adaptive RSI bridges this gap by adding a clear visual layer that helps traders assess whether a trend is likely to continue, consolidate, or reverse.
- This makes the indicator particularly useful for spotting trend exhaustion and confirming momentum shifts in real-time.
Best Use Cases:
- Works effectively on timeframes from 1 hour (1H) to 1 day (1D), making it suitable for swing trading and position trading.
- Particularly useful for trading indices (SPY), stocks, forex, and cryptocurrencies, where momentum shifts are frequent.
- Helps identify not just trend direction but also whether that trend is gaining or losing strength.
Recommended Complementary Indicators:
- Adaptive Trend Finder: Helps identify the dominant long-term trend.
- Williams Fractals Ultimate: Provides key reversal points to validate trend shifts.
- RVOL (Relative Volume): Confirms significant moves based on volume strength.
This enhanced HMA with Adaptive RSI provides a powerful, intuitive visual tool that makes trend analysis and momentum interpretation more effective and efficient.

Uptrick Signal Density Cloud🟪 Introduction
The Uptrick Signal Density Cloud is designed to track market direction and highlight potential reversals or shifts in momentum. It plots two smoothed lines on the chart and fills the space between them (often called a “cloud”). The bars on the chart change color depending on bullish or bearish conditions, and small triangles appear when certain reversal criteria are met. A metrics table displays real-time values for easy reference.
🟩 Why These Features Have Been Linked Together
1) Dual-Line Structure
Two separate lines represent shorter- and longer-term market tendencies. Linking them in one tool allows traders to view both near-term changes and the broader directional bias in a single glance.
2) Smoothed Averages
The script offers multiple smoothing methods—exponential, simple, hull, and an optimized approach—to reduce noise. Using more than one type of moving average can help balance responsiveness with stability.
3) Density Cloud Concept
Shading the region between the two lines highlights the gap or “thickness.” A wider gap typically signals stronger momentum, while a narrower gap could indicate a weakening trend or potential market indecision. When the cloud is too wide and crosses a certain threshold defined by the user, it indicates a possible reversal. When the cloud is too narrow it may indicate a potential breakout.
🟪 Why Use This Indicator
• Trend Visibility: The color-coded lines and bars make it easier to distinguish bullish from bearish conditions.
• Momentum Tracking: Thicker cloud regions suggest stronger separation between the faster and slower lines, potentially indicating robust momentum.
• Possible Reversal Alerts: Small triangles appear within thick zones when the indicator detects a crossover, drawing attention to key moments of potential trend change.
• Quick Reference Table: A metrics table shows line values, bullish or bearish status, and cloud thickness without needing to hover over chart elements.
🟩 Inputs
1) First Smoothing Length (length1)
Default: 14
Defines the lookback period for the faster line. Lower values make the line respond more quickly to price changes.
2) Second Smoothing Length (length2)
Default: 28
Defines the lookback period for the slower line or one of the moving averages in optimized mode. It generally responds more slowly than the faster line.
3) Extra Smoothing Length (extraLength)
Default: 50
A medium-term period commonly seen in technical analysis. In optimized mode, it helps add broader perspective to the combined lines.
4) Source (source)
Default: close
Specifies the price data (for example, open, high, low, or a custom source) used in the calculations.
5) Cloud Type (cloudType)
Options: Optimized, EMA, SMA, HMA
Determines the smoothing method used for the lines. “Optimized” blends multiple exponential averages at different lengths.
6) Cloud Thickness Threshold (thicknessThreshold)
Default: 0.5
Sets the minimum separation between the two lines to qualify as a “thick” zone, indicating potentially stronger momentum.
🟪 Core Components
1) Faster and Slower Lines
Each line is smoothed according to user preferences or the optimized technique. The faster line typically reacts more quickly, while the slower line provides a broader overview.
2) Filled Density Cloud
The space between the two lines is filled to visualize in which direction the market is trending.
3) Color-Coded Bars
Price bars adopt bullish or bearish colors based on which line is on top, providing an immediate sense of trend direction.
4) Reversal Triangles
When the cloud is thick (exceeding the threshold) and the lines cross in the opposite direction, small triangles appear, signaling a possible market shift.
5) Metrics Table
A compact table shows the current values of both lines, their bullish/bearish statuses, the cloud thickness, and whether the cloud is in a “reversal zone.”
🟩 Calculation Process
1) Raw Averages
Depending on the mode, standard exponential, simple, hull, or “optimized” exponential blends are calculated.
2) Optimized Averages (if selected)
The faster line is the average of three exponential moving averages using length1, length2, and extraLength.
The slower line similarly uses those same lengths multiplied by 1.5, then averages them together for broader smoothing.
3) Difference and Threshold
The absolute gap between the two lines is measured. When it exceeds thicknessThreshold, the cloud is considered thick.
4) Bullish or Bearish Determination
If sma1 (the faster line) is above sma2 (the slower line), conditions are deemed bullish; otherwise, they are bearish. This distinction is reflected in both bar colors and cloud shading.
5) Reversal Markers
In thick zones, a crossover triggers a triangle at the point of potential reversal, alerting traders to a possible trend change.
🟪 Smoothing Methods
1) Exponential (EMA)
Prioritizes recent data for quicker responsiveness.
2) Simple (SMA)
Takes a straightforward average of the chosen period, smoothing price action but often lagging more in volatile markets.
3) Hull (HMA)
Employs a specialized formula to reduce lag while maintaining smoothness.
4) Optimized (Blended Exponential)
Combines multiple EMA calculations to strike a balance between responsiveness and noise reduction.
🟩 Cloud Logic and Reversal Zones
Cloud thickness above the defined threshold typically signals exceeding momentum and can lead to a quick reversal. During these thick periods, if the width exceeds the defined threshold, small triangles mark potential reversal points. In order for the reversal shape to show, the color of the cloud has to be the opposite. So, for example, if the cloud is bearish, and exceeds momentum, defined by the user, a bullish signal appears. The opposite conditions for a bullish signal. This approach can help traders focus on notable changes rather than minor oscillations.
🟪 Bar Coloring and Layered Lines
Bars take on bullish or bearish tints, matching the faster line’s position relative to the slower line. The lines themselves are plotted multiple times with varying opacities, creating a layered, glowing look that enhances visibility without affecting calculations.
🟩 The Metrics Table
Located in the top-right corner of the chart, this table displays:
• SMA1 and SMA2 current values.
• Bullish or bearish alignment for each line.
• Cloud thickness.
• Reversal zone status (in or out of zone).
This numeric readout allows for a quick data check without hovering over the chart.
🟪 Why These Specific Moving Average Lengths Are Used
Default lengths of 14, 28, and 50 are common in technical analysis. Fourteen captures near-term price movement without overreacting. Twenty-eight, roughly double 14, provides a moderate smoothing level. Fifty is widely regarded as a medium-term benchmark. Multiplying each length by 1.5 for the slower line enhances separation when combined with the faster line.
🟩 Originality and Usefulness
• Multi-Layered Smoothing. The user can select from several moving average modes, including a unique “optimized” blend, possibly reducing random fluctuations in the market data.
• Combined Visual and Numeric Clarity. Bars, clouds, and a real-time table merge into a single interface, enabling efficient trend analysis.
• Focus on Significant Shifts. Thick cloud zones and triangles draw attention to potentially stronger momentum changes and plausible reversals.
• Flexible Across Markets. The adjustable lengths and threshold can be tuned to different asset classes (stocks, forex, commodities, crypto) and timeframes.
By integrating multiple technical concepts—cloud-based trend detection, color coding, reversal markers, and an immediate reference table—the Uptrick Signal Density Cloud aims to streamline chart reading and decision-making.
🟪 Additional Considerations
• Timeframes. Intraday, daily, and weekly charts each yield different signals. Adjust the smoothing lengths and threshold to suit specific trading horizons.
• Market Types. Though applicable across asset classes, parameters might need tweaking to address the volatility of commodities, forex pairs, or cryptocurrencies.
• Confirmation Tools. Pairing this indicator with volume studies or support/resistance analysis can improve the reliability of signals.
• Potential Limitations. No indicator is foolproof; sudden market shifts or choppy conditions may reduce accuracy. Cautious position sizing and risk management remain essential.
🟩 Disclaimers
The Uptrick Signal Density Cloud relies on historical price data and may lag sudden moves or provide false positives in ranging conditions. Always combine it with other analytical techniques and sound risk management. This script is offered for educational purposes only and should not be considered financial advice.
🟪 Conclusion
The Uptrick Signal Density Cloud blends trend identification, momentum assessment, and potential reversal alerts in a single, user-friendly tool. With customizable smoothing methods and a focus on cloud thickness, it visually highlights important market conditions. While it cannot guarantee predictive accuracy, it can serve as a comprehensive reference for traders seeking both a quick snapshot of the current trend and deeper insights into market dynamics.
Uptrick: Zero Lag HMA Trend Suite1. Name and Purpose
Uptrick: Zero Lag HMA Trend Suite is a Pine Version 6 script that builds upon the Hull Moving Average (HMA) to offer an advanced trend analysis tool. Its purpose is to help traders identify trend direction, potential reversals, and overall market momentum with reduced lag compared to traditional moving averages. By combining the HMA with Average True Range (ATR) thresholds, slope-dependent coloring, Volume Weighted Average Price (VWAP) ribbons, and optional reversal signals, the script aims to give a detailed view of price activity in various market environments.
2. Overview
This script begins with the calculation of a Hull Moving Average, a method that blends Weighted Moving Averages in a way designed to cut down on lag while still smoothing out price fluctuations. Next, several enhancements are applied. The script compares current HMA values to previous ones for slope-based coloring, which highlights uptrends and downtrends at a glance. It also plots buy and sell signals when price moves beyond or below thresholds determined by the ATR and the user’s chosen signal multiplier. An optional VWAP ribbon can be shown to confirm bullish or bearish conditions relative to a volume-weighted benchmark. Additionally, the script can plot reversal signals (labeled with B) at points where price crosses back toward the HMA from above or below. Taken together, these elements allow traders to visualize both the short-term momentum and the broader context of how price interacts with volatility and overall market direction.
3. Why These Indicators Have Been Linked Together
The reason the Hull Moving Average, the Average True Range, and the VWAP have been integrated into one script is to tackle multiple facets of market analysis in a single tool. The Zero Lag Hull Moving Average provides a responsive trend line, the ATR offers a measure of volatility that helps distinguish significant price shifts from typical fluctuations, and the VWAP acts as a reference for fair value based on traded volume. By layering all three, the script helps traders avoid the need to juggle multiple separate indicators and offers a holistic perspective. The slope-based coloring focuses on trend direction, the ATR-based thresholds refine possible buy and sell zones, and the VWAP ribbons provide insight into how price stands relative to an important volume-weighted level. The inclusion of up and down signals and reversal B labels further refines entries and exits.
4. Why Use Uptrick: Zero Lag HMA Trend Suite
The Hull Moving Average is already known for reacting more quickly to price changes compared to other moving averages while retaining a degree of smoothness. This suite enhances the basic HMA by showing colored gradients that make it easy to spot trend direction changes, highlighting potential entry or exit points based on volatility-driven thresholds, and optionally layering a volume-based measure of bullish or bearish market sentiment. By relying on a zero lag approach and additional data points, the script caters to those wanting a more responsive method of identifying shifts in market dynamics. The added reversal signals and up or down alerts give traders extra confirmation for potential turning points.
5. How This Extension Improves on the Basic HMA
This extension not only plots the Hull Moving Average but also includes data-driven alerts and visual cues that traditional HMA lines do not provide. First, it offers multi-layered slope coloring, making up or down trends quickly apparent. Second, it uses ATR-based thresholds to pinpoint moments when price may be extending beyond normal volatility, thus generating buy or sell signals. Third, the script introduces an optional VWAP ribbon to indicate whether the market is trading above or below this pivotal volume-weighted benchmark, adding a further confirmation step for bullish or bearish conditions. Finally, it incorporates optional reversal signals labeled with B, indicating points where price might swing back toward the main HMA line.
6. Core Components
The script can be broken down into several primary functions and features.
a. Zero Lag HMA Calculation
Uses two Weighted Moving Averages (half-length and full-length) combined through a smoothing step based on the square root of the chosen length. This approach is designed to reduce lag significantly compared to other moving averages.
b. Slope Detection
Compares current and prior HMA values to determine if the trend is up or down. The slope-based coloring changes between turquoise shades for upward movement and magenta shades for downward movement, making trend direction immediately visible.
c. ATR-Based Thresholding for Up and Down Signals
The script calculates an Average True Range over a user-defined period, then multiplies it by a signal factor to form two bands around the HMA. When price crosses below the lower band, an up (buy) signal appears; when it crosses above the upper band, a down (sell) signal is shown.
d. Reversal Signals (B Labels)
Tracks when price transitions back toward the main HMA from an extreme zone. When enabled, these reversal points are labeled with a B and can help traders see potential turning points or mean-reversion setups.
e. VWAP Bands
An optional Volume Weighted Average Price ribbon that plots above or below the HMA, indicating bullish or bearish conditions relative to a volume-weighted price benchmark. This can also act as a kind of support/ resistance.
7. User Inputs
a. HMA Length
Controls how quickly the moving average responds to price changes. Shorter lengths react faster but can lead to more frequent signals, whereas longer lengths produce smoother lines.
b. Source
Specifies the price input, such as close or an alternative source, for the calculation. This can help align the HMA with specific trading strategies.
c. ATR Length and Signal Multiplier
Defines how the script calculates average volatility and sets thresholds for buy or sell alerts. Adjusting these values can help filter out noise or highlight more aggressive signals.
d. Slope Index
Determines how many bars to look back for detecting slope direction, influencing how sensitive the slope coloring is to small fluctuations.
e. Show Buy and Sell Signals, Reversal Signals, and VWAP
Lets users toggle the display of these features. Turning off certain elements can reduce chart clutter if traders prefer a simpler layout.
8. Calculation Process
The script’s calculation follows a step-by-step approach. It first computes two Weighted Moving Averages of the selected price source, one over half the specified length and one over the full length. It then combines these using 2*wma1 minus wma2 to reduce lag, followed by applying another weighted average using the square root of the length. Simultaneously, it computes the ATR for a user-defined period. By multiplying ATR by the signal multiplier, it establishes upper and lower bands around the HMA, where crossovers generate buy (up) or sell (down) signals. The script can also plot reversal signals (B labels) when price crosses back from these bands in the opposite direction. For the optional VWAP feature, Pine Script’s ta.vwap function is used, and differences between the HMA and VWAP levels determine the color and opacity of the ribbon.
9. Signal Generation and Filtering
The ATR-based thresholds reduce the influence of small, inconsequential price swings. When price falls below the lower band, the script issues an up (buy) signal. If price breaks above the upper band, a down (sell) signal appears. These signals are visible through labels placed near the bars. Reversal signals, labeled with B, can be turned on to help detect when price retraces from an extended area back toward the main HMA line. Traders can disable or enable these signals to match their preferred level of chart detail or risk tolerance.
10. Visualization on the Chart
The Zero HMA Lag Trend Suite aims for visual clarity. The HMA line is plotted multiple times with increasing transparency to create a gradient effect. Turquoise gradients indicate upward slopes, and magenta gradients signify downward slopes. Bar coloring can be configured to align with the slope direction, providing quick insight into current momentum. When enabled, buy or sell labels are placed under or above the bars as price crosses the ATR-defined boundaries. If the reversal option is active, B labels appear around areas where price changes direction. The optional VWAP ribbons form background bands, using distinct coloration to signal whether price is above or below the volume-weighted metric.
11. Market Adaptability
Because the script’s parameters (HMA length, ATR length, signal multiplier, and slope index) are user-configurable, it can adapt to a wide range of markets and timeframes. Intraday traders may prefer a shorter HMA length for quick signals, while swing or position traders might use a longer HMA length to filter out short-lived price changes. The source setting can also be adjusted, allowing for specialized data inputs beyond just close or open values.
12. Risk Management Considerations
The script’s signals and labels are based on past price data and volatility readings, and they do not guarantee profitable outcomes. Sharp market reversals or unforeseen fundamental events can produce false signals. Traders should combine this tool with broader risk management strategies, including stop-loss placement, position sizing, and independent market analyses. The Zero HMA Lag Trend Suite can help highlight potential opportunities, but it should not be relied upon as the sole basis for trade decisions.
13. Combining with Other Tools
Many traders choose to verify signals from the Zero HMA Lag Trend Suite using popular indicators like the Relative Strength Index (RSI), Moving Average Convergence Divergence (MACD), or even simple volume-based metrics to confirm whether a price movement has sufficient momentum. Conventional techniques such as support and resistance levels, chart patterns, or candlestick analysis can also supplement signals generated by the script’s up, down, or reversal B labels.
14. Parameter Customization and Examples
a. Short-Term Day Trading
Using a shorter HMA length (for instance, 9 or 14) and a slightly higher ATR multiplier might provide timely buy and sell signals, though it may also produce more whipsaws in choppy markets.
b. Swing or Position Trading
Selecting a longer HMA length (such as 50 or 100) with a moderate ATR multiplier can help users track more significant and sustained market moves, potentially reducing the effect of minor fluctuations.
c. Multiple Timeframe Blends
Some traders load two versions of the indicator on the same chart, one for short-term signals (with frequent B label reversals) and another for the broader trend direction, aligning entry and exit decisions with the bigger picture.
15. Realistic Expectations
Even though the Hull Moving Average helps minimize lag and the script incorporates volatility-based filters and optional VWAP overlays, it cannot predict future market behavior with complete accuracy. Periods of low liquidity or sudden market shocks can still lead to signals that do not reflect longer-term trends. Frequent parameter review and manual confirmation are advised before executing trades based solely on the script’s outputs.
16. Theoretical Background
The Hull Moving Average formula aims to balance smoothness with reactivity, accomplished by combining Weighted Moving Averages at varying lengths. By subtracting a slower average from a faster one and then applying another smoothing step with the square root of the original length, the HMA is designed to respond more promptly to price changes than typical exponential or simple moving averages. The ATR component, introduced by J. Welles Wilder, calculates the average range of price movement over a user-defined period, allowing the script to assess volatility and adapt signals accordingly. VWAP provides a volume-weighted benchmark that many institutional traders track to gauge fair intraday value.
17. Originality and Uniqueness
Although multiple HMA-based indicators can be found, Uptrick: Zero Lag HMA Trend Suite sets itself apart by merging slope-based coloring, ATR thresholds, VWAP ribbons, up or down labels, and optional reversal signals all in one cohesive platform. This synergy aims to reduce chart clutter while still giving traders a comprehensive look at trend direction, volatility, and volume-based sentiment.
18. Summary
Uptrick: Zero Lag HMA Trend Suite is a specialized trading script designed to highlight potential market trends and reversals with minimal delay. It leverages the Hull Moving Average for an adaptive yet smooth price line, pairs ATR-based thresholds for detecting possible breakouts or dips, and provides VWAP-based ribbons for added volume-weighted context. Traders can further refine their entries and exits by enabling up or down signals and reversal labels (B) where price may revert toward the HMA. Suitable for a wide range of timeframes and instrument types, the script encourages a disciplined approach to trade management and risk control.
19. Disclaimer

Conceptual Foundation and Innovation
The "Hma Swing Points" script introduces a simple yet effective method for identifying key swing points in the market using Hull Moving Averages (HMA). The Hull Moving Average is a faster and smoother alternative to traditional moving averages, making it ideal for detecting significant price swings. By applying HMA to both high and low prices, the script identifies swing highs and lows, providing traders with visual cues for potential trend reversals or continuations. This approach helps traders recognize turning points in the market with minimal lag, allowing for more precise entries and exits.
Technical Composition and Calculation
This script uses two Hull Moving Averages—one for the high prices and another for the low prices. These HMAs offer smoother trend detection while filtering out market noise. The script identifies the highest and lowest HMA values over a user-defined lookback period to determine the swing high and swing low points. Long signals are generated when the current HMA of the highs matches the highest value within the lookback period, while short signals are generated when the HMA of the lows matches the lowest value. These signals are plotted on the chart, and alerts can be set to notify the trader of possible entry or exit points.
Features and User Inputs
The script offers several customizable inputs to adjust its sensitivity and behavior according to the trader’s preferences. The lookback period defines the number of bars used to calculate the highest and lowest HMA values, allowing traders to control how responsive the script is to price changes. The length of the Hull Moving Average can also be modified, giving traders flexibility in smoothing the indicator. Additionally, optional bar color settings provide visual cues, with bullish and bearish trends highlighted. Alerts are included to notify traders when long or short swing points are detected, ensuring they are informed even when not actively monitoring the chart.
Practical Applications
The "Hma Swing Points" script is useful for traders who aim to identify critical market turning points and potential reversals. It is especially effective in trending markets where price swings present trading opportunities. Traders can use the script to detect reversals by spotting swing points that indicate a possible shift from bullish to bearish trends, or vice versa. The script also helps confirm ongoing trends by showing the strength of swings, allowing traders to make informed decisions about entering or exiting trades. Its ability to mark precise swing points enhances trade timing, helping traders optimize their entries and exits.
Advantages and Strategic Value
The script offers a streamlined approach to detecting swing points with the speed and smoothness of the Hull Moving Average. This makes it easier to filter out false signals and noise, improving the accuracy of trend identification. The customizable inputs allow traders to tailor the script for different assets and market conditions, making it versatile for various trading styles. By highlighting key swing points, the script provides traders with clear visual signals for potential reversals and trend confirmations, enhancing their ability to follow and act on market movements.
Summary and Usage Tips
Incorporating the "Hma Swing Points" script into a trading strategy helps traders identify market reversals and continuation points more effectively. Adjusting the lookback period and HMA length ensures the script adapts to different assets and market conditions. The alert system ensures traders don’t miss key swing points. As always, backtesting is important to evaluate the script’s performance under various market conditions, and past results may not guarantee future outcomes.
Reflected ema Difference (RED) This script, titled "Reflected EMA Difference (RED)," is based on the logic of evaluating the percentage of convergence and divergence between two moving averages, specifically the Hull Moving Averages (HMA), to make price-related decisions. The Hull Moving Average, created by Alan Hull, is used as the foundation of this strategy, offering a faster and more accurate way to analyze market trends. In this script, the concept is employed to measure and reflect price variations.
Script Functionality Overview:
Hull Moving Averages (HMA): The script utilizes two HMAs, one short-term and one long-term. The main idea is to compute the Delta Difference between these two moving averages, which represents how much they are converging or diverging from each other. This difference is key to identifying potential market trend changes.
Reflected HMA Value: Using the Delta Difference between the HMAs, the value of the short-term HMA is reflected, creating a visual reference point that helps traders see the relationship between price and HMAs on the chart.
Percentage Change Index: The second key parameter is the percentage change index. This determines when a trend is reversing, allowing buy or sell orders to be established based on significant changes in the relationship between the HMAs and the price.
Delta Multiplier: The script comes with a default Delta multiplier of 2 for calculating the difference between HMAs, allowing traders to adjust the sensitivity of the analysis based on the time frame being analyzed.
Trend Reversal Signals: When the price crosses the thresholds defined by the percentage change index, buy or sell signals are triggered, based on the detection of a potential trend reversal.
Visual Cues with Boxes: Boxes are drawn on the chart when the HullMA crosses the reflected HMA value, providing a visual aid to identify critical moments where risk should be evaluated.
Alerts for Receiving Signals:
This script allows you to set up buy and sell alerts via TradingView's alert system. These alerts are triggered when trend changes are detected based on the conditions coded in the script. Traders can receive instant notifications, allowing them to make decisions without needing to constantly monitor the chart.
Additional Considerations:
The percentage change parameter is adjustable and should be configured based on the time frame you are trading on. For longer time frames, it's advisable to use a larger percentage change to avoid false signals.
The use of Hull Moving Averages (HMA) provides a faster and more reactive approach to trend evaluation compared to other moving averages, making it a powerful tool for traders seeking quick reversal signals.
This approach combines the power of Hull Moving Averages with an alert system to improve the trader’s response to trend changes.

Este script, titulado "Reflected EMA Difference (RED)", está fundamentado en la lógica de evaluar el porcentaje de acercamiento y distancia entre dos medias móviles, específicamente las medias móviles de Hull (HMA), para tomar decisiones sobre el valor del precio. El creador de la media móvil de Hull, Alan Hull, diseñó este indicador para ofrecer una forma más rápida y precisa de analizar tendencias de mercado, y en este script se utiliza su concepto como base para medir y reflejar las variaciones de precio.
Descripción del funcionamiento:
Medias Móviles de Hull (HMA): Se utilizan dos HMAs, una de corto plazo y otra de largo plazo. La idea principal es calcular la diferencia Delta entre estas dos medias móviles, que representa cuánto se están alejando o acercando entre sí. Esta diferencia es clave para identificar cambios potenciales en la tendencia del mercado.
Valor Reflejado de la HMA: Con la diferencia Delta calculada entre las HMAs, se refleja el valor de la HMA corta, creando un punto de referencia visual que ayuda a los traders a observar la relación entre el precio y las HMAs en el gráfico.
Índice de Cambio de Porcentaje: El segundo parámetro clave del script es el índice de cambio porcentual. Este define el momento en que una tendencia está revirtiendo, permitiendo establecer órdenes de compra o venta en función de un cambio significativo en la relación entre las HMAs y el precio.
Multiplicador Delta: El script tiene un multiplicador predeterminado de 2 para el cálculo de la diferencia Delta, lo que permite ajustar la sensibilidad del análisis según la temporalidad del gráfico.
Señales de Reversión de Tendencia: Cuando el precio cruza los límites definidos por el índice de cambio porcentual, se emiten señales para comprar o vender, basadas en la detección de una posible reversión de tendencia.
Visualización con Cajas: Se dibujan cajas en el gráfico cuando el indicador HullMA cruza el valor reflejado de la HMA, ayudando a identificar visualmente los momentos críticos en los que se debe evaluar el riesgo de las operaciones.
Alertas para Recibir Señales:
Este script permite configurar alertas de compra y venta desde el apartado de alertas de TradingView. Estas alertas se activan cuando se detectan cambios de tendencia en función de las condiciones establecidas en el código. El trader puede recibir notificaciones instantáneas, lo que facilita la toma de decisiones sin necesidad de estar constantemente observando el gráfico.
Consideraciones adicionales:
El porcentaje de cambio es un parámetro ajustable y debe configurarse según la temporalidad que se esté operando. En temporalidades más largas, es recomendable usar un porcentaje de cambio mayor para evitar señales falsas.
La utilización de las medias móviles de Hull (HMA) proporciona un enfoque más rápido y reactivo para evaluar tendencias en comparación con otras medias móviles, lo que lo convierte en una herramienta poderosa para traders que buscan señales rápidas de reversión.
Este enfoque combina la potencia de las medias móviles de Hull con un sistema de alertas que mejora la reactividad a cambios de tendencia.
