TTM Waves ABC ATR AO MOM SQZ//All code picked from many indicators, if you recognize your code, pls comment so people can see your awesome work! I only edited and added them all together so people don't use all their indicator slots. Hope this indicator helps as many people as it can. LFG!!!
AO (Awesome Oscillator) Useful to find potential reversals in trend.
MOM (Momentum) An oscillator that measures momentum.
ATR (Average True Range) Measures the upside and downside from the average price movement occuring. 1 ATR is the general measurement. Many traders use 2ATR to set a stop and 4ATR to set take profit from their entry based on current reading from the ATR.
SQZ ( TTM Squeeze) Measures when bollinger bands have left the interior of the Keltner Channel in an attempt to predict volatility thats about to happen to either side. Green = Move is probably about to happen.
TTM Waves ( Waves A, B, and C) Measure the previous candles to determine chop, positive or negative trends. C measures the previous 30 candles or so, B the last 15 or so, and A measures the last 8 or so. You can use all three or just one. You can sneak in a move if the 2 fastest ones have moved into your preferred area. (Positive or Negative) If the wave is not fully positve or negative then that is probably chop.

MACD frontSide backSide
===================
an elegant, much better way to use MACD
for trend following momentum ( aka momo) style
MACD with default settings of 12/26 smoothing of 9
✔️ but without histogram
✔️ only has MACD and signal "lines"
green = frontSide momentum impulse
take longs only
red = backSide momentum impulse
take shorts only
black area = exit (once green or red is no longer showing)
or keep holding till next bigger TP

Squeeze M + ADX + TTM (Trading Latino & John Carter) by [Rolgui]About this indicator:
This indicator aims to combine two good performing strategies, which can be used separately or together, mainly for investment positions, although it can also be used for intraday trading.
Strategy 1) Squeeze Oscillator and Average Directional Index:
This strategy is taught by Jaime Aibsai, which determines market entries based on reading the direction of the price movement (Directionality of the Oscillator) along with the strength of the Oscillator (Slope of the ADX).
Both tools are configured according to Jaime Abisai's strategy, by default (note that point 23 of the ADX is represented by point 0 on the panel, to make reading easier, its interpretation is not affected). Anyway you can adjust the input data according to your interest.
*You can see this setting in the first panel.
Strategy 2) Squeeze Momentum and Trade The Market Waves:
This strategy can be consulted either in John F. Carter's books or on his website.
This market reading is based on Price Volatility (Bollinger Bands and Keltner Channels interaction) and its Trend (Exponential Moving Averages), showing entries at times when price volatility is low and taking filtering active trend using T.T.M. Waves.
To configure the indicator in the same way that Carter does, it would be enough to turn off the ADX, turn on the Squeeze Momentum signals along with the T.T.M. Waves, and importantly, change the Linear Momentum value to 12 (this configuration can be found in his book).
*You can see this setting in the second panel.
Why this indicator?
I've added and removed the above flags as I needed to query them (which became tedious for me). The main objective of having merged them into one is to make their reading more agile and comfortable and thus improve the decision-making capacity of the trader who wishes to use them.
Credits and Acknowledgments:
I would like to give credits to other authors, for the sections of code that I have used to make this technical indicator. Thanks to @LazyBear, @matetaronna, @jombie and @joren for contributing to the community and keeping their code open. It is priceless!
Feel free to combine and practice your trading with both strategies, personally, they improved my profitability and this is why I recommend researching more about them. I've been using it for crypto investing, let me know if it's worth for you on stock market!
If you have any questions or suggestions you can leave it in the comments!

Multi-Timeframe TTM Squeeze Pro
IMPORTANT NOTE:
-> The timeframe for this indicator must be set at 1 minute;
-> If the chart timeframe is higher than 1 minute, the results shown in the table for timeframes lower than the chart will not be correct;
-> Tradingview's own documentation explains this as follows: " It is not recommended to request data of a timeframe lower that the current chart timeframe, for example 1 minute data from a 5 minutes chart. The main problem with such a case is that some part of a 1 minute data will be inevitably lost, as it’s impossible to display it on a 5 minutes chart and not to break the time axis. In such cases the behavior of security can be rather unexpected "; and
-> It is therefore recommended that this indicator is placed in a standalone 1min chart window, and the window resized to only show the table to avoid any issues.

-> Lazybear's original interpretation of the TTM Squeeze: Squeeze Momentum Indicator

This is my version of their collective works, with amendments primarily to the Squeeze Conditions to more accurately reflect the color coding used by the official TMM Squeeze Pro indicator.
TTM Squeeze Guide
For those unfamiliar with the TTM Squeeze, it is simply a visual way of seeing how Bollinger Bands (standard deviations from a simple moving average ) relate to Keltner Channels ( average true range bands) compared with the momentum of the price action. The concept is that as Bollinger Bands compress within Keltner Channels , price volatility decreases, giving way for a potential explosive price movement up or down.
Differences between the original TTM Squeeze and TTM Squeeze Pro:
-> Both use a 2 standard deviation Bollinger Band ;
-> The original squeeze only used a 1.5 ATR Keltner Channel; and
-> The pro version uses 1.0, 1.5 and 2.0 ATR Keltner Channels .
The pro version therefore helps differentiate between levels of squeeze (compression) as the Bollinger Bands moves through the Keltner Channels i.e. the greater the compression, the more potential for explosive moves - less compression means more squeezing.
The Histogram shows price momentum whereas the colored dots (along the zeroline) show where the Bollinger Bands are in relation to the Keltner Channels:
-> Cyan Bars = positive, increasing momentum;
-> Blue Bars = positive, decreasing momentum (indication of a reversal in price direction);
-> Red Bars = negative, increasing momentum;
-> Yellow Bars = negative, decreasing momentum (indication of a reversal in price direction);
-> Orange Dots = High Compression / large squeeze (One or both of the Bollinger Bands is inside the 1st (1.0 ATR) Keltner Channel);
-> Red Dots = Medium Squeeze (One or both of the Bollinger Bands is inside the 2nd (1.5 ATR) Keltner Channel);
-> Black Dots = Low compression / wide squeeze (One or both of the Bollinger Bands is inside the 3rd (2.0 ATR) Keltner Channels );
-> Green Dots = No Squeeze / Squeeze Fired (One or both of the Bollinger Bands is outside of the 3rd (2.0 ATR) Keltner Channel).
Ideal Scenario:
As the ticker enters the squeeze, black dots would warn of the beginning of a low compression squeeze. As the Bollinger bands continue to constrict within the Keltner Channels , red dots would highlight a medium compression. As the price action and momentum continues to compress an orange dot shows warning of high compression. As price action leaves the squeeze, the coloring would reverse e.g. orange to red to black to green. Any compression squeeze is considered fired at the first green dot that appears.
Note: This is an ideal progression of the different types of squeezes, however any type of squeeze (and color sequence) may appear at anytime, therefore the focus is primarily on the green dots after any type of compression.
Entry and Exit Guide:
-> John Carter recommends entering a position after at least 5 black dots or wait for 1st green dot ; and
-> Exit on second blue or yellow bar or, alternatively, remain in the position after confirming a continuing trend through a separate indicator.

TMO with TTM SqueezeApplication of the TTM squeeze and the short-term momentum TTM Wave A in action. This is an example where the short-term wave will react faster than the TTM to give you a signal to start building your positions.
This indicator needs to be combined with "TTM Wave A" (add to existing pane).
The TTM Squeeze works like a better MACD. There is a zeroline and histogram bars above / below represent positive and negative momo. As the height of the bar decreases when above the zeroline, that is called decreasingly positive momo and as the height of the bar decreases when below the zeroline, that is called decreasingly negative momo. The dots on the TTM Squeeze: Red dots represent consolidation where Bollingers are inside the Keltner Channels and green dots represent a move out of consolidation or "squeeze fire". As price action comes out of consolidation there is a bigger move up/down depending on where momo is heading and where prices are (key support/resistance levels, fib areas). You want to use the TTM Squeeze and A wave TOGETHER - TTM Squeeze is your main momo and your A wave is a short-term momo wave that reacts faster and works as a leading gauge. You need to use them TOGETHER to gauge where price action may be heading. When the TTM Squeeze and A wave move lockstep together, let's say both are decreasingly positive, there is a good probability it continues to move in that direction to the next support levels. TWO bars on the TTM Squeeze of different heights is confirmation that in most cases means it will move in the direction of those bars. So if decreasingly positive, you'll see two darker bars. By the time you get your 2nd bar on the TTM Squeeze, it is often too late or you're losing profit. Way to counter that is after you get one darker bar in the opposite direction of current trend, use A wave to "predict" the next wave, the more A wave histogram bars going towards the other direction, the higher the certainty it will hit. Lastly, using these waves together works best when you look at it on MULTIPLE TIME FRAMES. (Credit for this details goes to Brady from Atlas).

Multi StrategyDuring the course of a trade, we can find ourselves changing strategies depending on the market. Instead of using many different templates, I have a simple indicator that clearly says "Buy", "Sell" or "Stay Out". The great thing about this approach, is we instantly observe the majority are in agreement and that decides which way to place our trade.
This indicator includes the following strategies:
- QQE
- Ichimoku using much faster settings.
- Parabolic SAR
- Supertrend
- TTM Oscillator
- The Squeeze strategy
- The Alligator Strategy
Using this indicator is simple, if the lines are mainly green then buy, if mainly red then sell OR don't trade. So...
Green Line - This strategy is in a buy position
Orange or Black Line - This strategy is undecided
Red Line - This strategy is in a sell position
There are also some green and red circles for reference that appear showing when that bar has broken through the Ichimoku cloud.
The trader's approach is simple, when all indicators are green or red, then take the trade. As soon as one indicator changes, then re-evaluate using your normal process, such as price action, to determine whether to close the trade or continue.
I can customise this further or add other strategies, please message me.

UCS_TrendIts been a long time!!!!, Here, I am back with another indicator bust. This time it is TTM_Trend sold by Trade The Market.
This is my interpretation of the indicator, There are some mismatches, but i consider it as minimum. On Thinkorswim I was able to match it exactly. May be its just the way Tradingview plots the arguments specified. Here is the concept for anyone who want to improve and match it to the actual.
Update: The mismatch occurs in high volatility zone. the painted bars highs and lows in Tradingview is different when compared to TOS.
ZTLs Bar_TrendHere is an adaptation of TTM_Trend I coded. It's all pretty self explanatory. Aqua = buy and red = sell.
There's only one setting to tweak and it's the look-back for highest and lowest.
I have found that this indicator gives signals at almost identical areas to the TTM_Trend but tend to actually be a little more efficient (earlier buy/sell signals), although I haven't thoroughly back-tested it.
Enjoy!

What did I modify?
1. Automated the Daily + and Intraday settings. So Switching to intraday will change the setting automatically.
2. Added text callouts for RTM condition
a. John Carter's Indicator
b. Slope Based (my addition).
Future Improvement Planned.
1. Will Convert this into a system based on John's Indicator from TS.
2. Custom Options for Slope and MA setting for Trade filter.
UCS_TTM_Wave A & B & CThis is a replica of TTM Wave A B C.
The ABC Waves are comprised of various moving averages and oscillators (MACD) used to visualize the overall strength and direction of a given market across multiple time frames.
The “A Wave” measures short term relative strength and direction of a market, the “C Wave” measures longer term strength and the “B Wave” plots the same for a medium time period.
Here is the link to the ACTUAL Indicator - members.simpleroptions.com
Instruction -
Load the Indicator three times, Turn Off the Other two Waves. For eg., Wave A - Check / Wave B - Uncheck / Wave C - Uncheck. = This will plot Wave A.
UCS_Squeeze_Timing-V1There is an important information the Squeeze indicator is missing, which is the Pre Squeeze entry. While the Bollinger band begins to curves out of the KC, The breakout usually happens. There are many instances that the Squeeze indicator will fire, after the Major move, I cant blame the indicator, thats the nature (lagging) of all indicators, and we have to live with it.
Therefore pre-squeeze-fire Entry can be critical in timing your entry. Timing it too early could result in stoploss if it turns against you, ( or serious burn on options premium), because we never know when the squeeze will fire with the TTM squeeze, But now We know. Its a little timing tool. Managing position is critical when playing options.
I will code the timing signal when I get some time.
