Recursive Moving Trend Average Taken from an article "The Yen Recused" in the December 1998 issue of TASC,
written by Dennis Meyers. He describes the Recursive MA in mathematical terms
as "recursive polynomial fit, a technique that uses a small number of past values
of the estimated price and today's price to predict tomorrows price."
Trend
Highest/Lowest Channel Multi-Time FramePlots the Highest and Lowest source price for N bars back. Similar to Donchian Channels except any price source can be used (best results: close ). Can be set to any interval independent of the chart interval. Repainting will occur if the chart interval is less than the indicator interval.
Multi-Day VWAP V2Updated from V1.
Chart the multi-day Volume Weighted Average Price ( VWAP ). Normally, the VWAP is tracked for the current day, from the first bar of the day (regular or extended session). The VWAP shows the current value of:
-> sum(hlc3 * volume , barsForDay) / sum( volume , barsForDay),
-> where 'barsForDay' is the total number bars that have elapsed during the day for the chart interval.
The multi-day version tracks the VWAP for N days back, by averaging the previous N - 1 day bars VWAP and the current VWAP for the current bar (chart interval).
This is very different that simply using a volume weighted moving average , since the closing VWAP values are used for the historical day bars. The results are interesting for intraday trades... especially for values of 1, 2, 3, 4, and 5 days.
Version 2 includes the closing VWAP for the previous day. There are enough instances where the price chooses to bounce from the previous day's closing VWAP value that it is worth discussing. Usually this value is at or near the daily pivot, but sometimes not. Circled in the chart are some areas of recent SPY bounces on the previous day's closing VWAP.
It seems that when the 5-Day VWAP and normal VWAP have "enough" percentage separation, that there can be good intraday swing opportunities using bounces off VWAP indicators. This is similar to waiting for Hourly/Daily/Weekly/Monthly/etc pivots to have "enough" separation to allow for swing setups. When pivots are "closely" spaced, odds are the price is range bound for the time period (daily range in the case of day pivots, etc).
Previous closing VWAPs can be plotted for all 5 of the original. As with my other scripts, I welcome all comments to spark new ideas that we can all benefit from.
Enjoy.
cooltoyz: shadow candlesAnother tool for the cooltoyz series :)
tired of having to look at multiple time frames for a ticker, and having to mentally mix them to try to guess/visualize trends, or support/resistance levels? so was i, and with this tool i let the chart do the heavy lifting :)
with this, upper time frames are visualized as shadows imposed on the chart itself. there are two levels:
level 1 - represented with strong green/red for candle body, and a thin line for the candle wicks
level 2 - light green/red for the candle body, lighter still for the wicks
it was the best visually appealing representation i could come with, if you find a better one share it in comments, please :)
basically works the same as the previous tool, the ghost candle, but with two levels of time frames superimposed. the same notes and warnings from the ghost candle apply, so go read them, too lazy for a copypasta :)
you can find the ghost candle here:
Inline Institutional BiasTrend identification indicator. Estimates (higher-timeframe) market state using the "Institutional Bias" MA relationship (9ema - 18ema, 1D timeframe). A "reference" MA (30sma - TRI's preferred MA for Trade Location) is then plotted, and colour-coded according to higher-timeframe market state.
NOTE: All MA lengths, types, and the timeframe to use are configurable, but default as above. All MAs are calculated using the "IB timeframe", even when zoomed in.
15 Minute Gold Trend-Following StrategyThis is the main strategy that I will be forward testing on demo for a month or two, then making it an EA in MetaTrader4
You can see the code for yourself this time, all the strategy is, is a crossover of various moving averages.
Commission included, $10,000 account.
Results over the past 3 months, beginning in January 2017.
Currency Relative Strengths V.2 [GM]Version 2 Updates
Speed has been increased by ~7X
Highest and lowest pairs now highlighted using brighter colors
Re-ordered pairs from highest to lowest 'flight to risk' rating
I created this tool for the purpose of determining strongest and weakest currencies over different periods of time. Each major currency is compared to the field of other majors and its average change is measured over a predetermined period of time. The result is displayed as a percentage. I use it for trend following but it can also be used to fade exhaustion.

Up/Down Range MomentumThe Up/Down Range breaks the price range into an upward and a downward moving component, so we can easily turn it into a momentum oscillator. This script does just that.
You can find the Up/Down Range (UDR) indicator here:
Up/Down RangeMeasuring the difference between the highs and lows from the average, this measure can serve as a proxy for the volatility, just like the ATR.
However, it breaks the range into an upward and a downward moving component, so it also gives information about the current trend direction.
In fact, I turned it into a momentum indicator here:
GMAE Original (By Kevin Manrrique)This script is called GMAE Original by me (Kevin Manrrique). I'm publishing this to the public because we are all traders and we need to support each other as a TVcommunity. This is something I built for fun. This script uses a series of EMA's. NO REPAINT, NO LAGGING! It works better for short-term trends as you can see. Please leave the copyright on the script at all times even if you rebuild it. If you need any help or have questions please inbox me privately. If you interested in joining up and building an indicator or strategy please inbox me as well. Thank you and I hope you enjoy this script as much as I do.
Remember there are no holy grails. The only holy grail there is are indicators built together to stop faulty signals and be as accurate as possible and this is one of them.
Sincerely,
Kevin Manrrique

ADX Color Easy [Dravya]Script #1
So,
here is my first script.
This is the normal 14 period ADX,
but with a color twist, to make it extremely easy on eyes.
and then,
easily spot the strength.
ADX, as you know, shows the strength of the trend.
As short term traders, we need price movement and a strong trend.
How to use this script ?
1. We don't trade when ADX is in the red zone (0-20)
2. We get ready for trading when it enters the blue zone (20-30)
3. We trade when the ADX enters the green zone (>30)
Simple, right !
Now, in the green zone,
in which direction you should trade?
Here are a few links, to help you use ADX as a strategy ,
www.tradingsetupsreview.com
www.babypips.com
Other than this, you can combine this with your own strategies.
Personally, I like to use it on stocks on 1H timeframe.
Thanks.
Would love to hear from you.
Please like it to support the project,
and help spread it.
Pump_Doctor Trends**You must enable bar colors in the options for the script if you wish to see them**
This indicator is very useful for spotting trends / tops / bottoms.
This is the ultimate altcoin pump spotting tool. Use on higher timeframes for greatest accuracy. If altcoin is newish (ZEC for example), try 4h rather than 1D or 3D.
Green = Uptrend
Red = Downtrend
Gray = Top/local top, bottom/local bottom, or continuation. You will need some knowledge of price action to determine which condition applies.
You can use the oscillator at the bottom as a measure of momentum / trend strength. You can draw trendlines on the oscillator on the top/bottom or the interior.
Modified Moving AverageUsed for the same reasons as the typical moving average. The first point is equal to the SMA, but it uses a recursive approach to calculate all subsequent data points.
The Block IndicatorThis indicator finds Mondays and Wednesdays and draws a vertical line, so you can easy do your bias or trend analysis.
Options
You can turn off/on the Wednesday's line.
FxMath Trend DetectorFxMath Trend Detector is very simple indicator according RSI & CCI . For better observation is better to use indicator with 3 period 50,100,150 and if in all periods color is match you can go for buy or sell.
B3 ECOBlau's Ergodic Candlestick Oscillator = a decent trend finder, however slightly lagged. It can help you to see a reversal entry if you are looking for one. I find the one line ECO hard to use, so I have created this histogram version with a signal line. The colors help to show you whats going on with the ECO and its bias. This indicator shows up in a couple books by people other than Blau, and namely by Krausz. You can also see divergences, for example in pic above the lower or second of the two green humps showing that the general uptrend might be weakened as this run contained less momentum. Tighten up the signal line to see a faster change in its color. These settings are the B3 input settings for default, meaning the ones I use in trading. They are not however the default values you might read about other places.
Moving Average RibbonThis is an extension of the Madrid Moving Average Ribbon public script to allow for different kinds of moving averages (the original allows only exponential and simple). Possible entries in the MA Type argument field are:
sma (simple moving average)
ema (exponential moving average)
wma (weighted moving average)
trima (triangular moving average)
zlema (zero-lag exponential moving average)
dema (double exponential moving average)
tema (triple exponential moving average)
hma (hull moving average)
If the argument given by the user does not match anything from the above list, it will default to ema.
Parabolic GlitterThis indicator overlays a series of Parabolic Stop And Reverses (SARs) to continuously illustrate trends as they form in addition to a range of good possible levels at which to place stop orders.
The Initial Start argument gives the minimum value for the SAR function's "Start" argument. The Increment/Start Ratio argument gives the ratio of the SAR function's "Increment" and "Start" arguments (i.e. SAR default is Start = 0.02, Increment = 0.02, therefore Increment/Start Ratio = 1). The same logic applies to the Max/Start Ratio Argument (i.e. SAR default is Start = 0.02, Max = 0.2, therefore Max/Start Ratio = 10).
The Adaptive Coloring argument determines whether the plotting points are red in downtrends and green in uptrends, or if all the plotted points are given the same color (defaults to silver).
ROC TideAdds some depth to the traditional rate of change (ROC) indicator. Instead of just having one ROC line with a single lookback period, this takes a minimum lookback period, n , and plots 20 ROC lines with lookback periods of n, 2n, 3n, ..., 20n . These lines will appear green when greater than zero, red when less than zero, and yellow when equal to zero by default.
Then it plots the average of those 20 ROC's as a yellow filled area so as to make it easier to see where the balance (or "tide") of the ROC waves are located.
B3 Bar Cycle MTFThis is an interesting study that can be used as a tool for determining trend direction, and also could be a trailing stop setter. I use it as a gauge on MTF settings, in the pic MTF is turned off. If on, you can look at the bar cycle of the 1h while on the 15m giving you a lot of information in one tool. If a line is missing high or low, it is because it was broken, if both exist you are trading in range and cloud appears. If both sides break you get thick gray boxes above and below bar.
Get used to editing the inputs to suit your liking. Often 3-5 length and always looking at different resolutions to get a big picture story. You could put multiple instances of the study up to see them simultaneously. I based the idea off of Krausz's 3 day cycle which you can read about in his teachings. I tend to find it looking better using Heikin Ashi bar-style.
