RedK Magic RibbonRedK Magic Ribbon is simple script that combines a fast and a slow moving averages to create a 2-Moving Average Cross-over / trend visualization tool.
We utilize the Compound Ratio Weighted Average (CoRa Wave) as the fast MA line and the RedK Slow Smooth Weighted Moving Average (RSS_WMA) aka LazyLine as the slow MA line.
i put this script together when i found that i started using these 2 moving average lines in my trading charts most of the time. thought others may find it useful.
The simple idea is that when the 2 lines "agree" on direction, then this is possibly a confirmed trend in that direction.
Visually, when the 2 lines agree on a trend direction, Magic Ribbon gives either a green (up) or red (down) fill, when they disagree, it gives a gray fill - Gray areas are considered "no trade" or "get ready" zones depending on the situation.
This ribbon can be used to support trend-following trades, swing trading, or as a visual trend tracking tool
Suggested Usage Tips:
----------------------------
* Position entry should be made as close to the RSS_WMA/LazyLine as possible to maximize gain.
* The RSS_WMA can act as a guide for Stop Loss
* An aggressive (or swing) trader may consider entries as soon as the CoRa Wave line changes color, but in context of the prevailing trend.
* if you intend to use this tool for trading, please test it using the PaperTrading or Rewind features of TV to get used to how it behaves and adjust accordingly.
* The Magic Ribbon should work on any timeframe.
* The basic settings are available - they enable adjusting the length and smoothness of the CoRa Wave and the Smoothness of the RSS_WMA - as well as the source price for each. Style settings enable to adjust color, line width, or hide/show various elements as needed.
* The most important tip for using the Magic Ribbon: when you first add it to your chart, is to fine-tune the length settings to your preference. start by adjusting the LazyLine (RSS_WMA) Smoothness value, so it tracks and barely touches the highs / lows of price bars - with the least amount of lag possible - then adjust the CoRa Wave length to make it as responsive as you need. Keep smoothness to the lowest you can use (i like 3 or 4 max) - the default settings are generic usable values based on my testing.
* as usual, please use this tool only as a guide - make your own detailed chart analysis and support your trading decision with signals and confirmations from other indicators .
