Supertrend Pro - Multi-Trend Analysis and Trading Signal Filtering
OVERVIEW
This indicator calculates trend direction based on the Supertrend indicator and integrates dual-trend analysis, upper and lower trend bands, trading signal alerts, moving average filtering, and the EMA 200 bull-bear division line to provide traders with more precise trend identification and trading signals.
It is suitable for trend trading, short-term trading, and swing trading, effectively filtering market noise and improving trade accuracy.
IMPLEMENTATION PRINCIPLES
1. Primary Trend: Uses the Supertrend indicator to calculate major trend direction, suitable for long-term trend assessment.
2. Secondary Trend: Detects short-term trend changes, capturing finer market movements.
3. Upper and Lower Trend Bands: Utilizes ATR (Average True Range) to calculate dynamic trend channels, assisting in trend strength assessment.
4. Trading Signal Alerts: Provides buy/sell signals when trends reverse, with optional moving average filtering to reduce false signals.
5. Moving Average Filtering: Supports multiple MA types, such as EMA, SMA, HMA, McGinley, helping to filter market noise.
6. EMA 200 Bull-Bear Division Line: Combines ATR-based trend buffer zones to distinguish between long-term bull and bear markets, enhancing trend accuracy.
KEY FEATURES
1. Dual-Trend Analysis
• Primary trend is suitable for long-term trend tracking, reducing interference from short-term fluctuations.
• Secondary trend is ideal for short-term trading opportunities, allowing faster identification of market turning points.
• By combining both, traders can follow the major trend direction while using the secondary trend for optimized entry points, improving trade success rates.
2. Upper and Lower Trend Bands
• ATR-based dynamic bands adjust to market volatility, avoiding the limitations of fixed support and resistance levels.
• Trend confirmation: When the price reaches the upper or lower band, traders can determine whether the market is overheated or oversold, aiding trading decisions.
• Combining primary and secondary trend bands provides clearer trend validation, reducing false signals.
3. Trading Signal Alerts
• Automatic buy/sell signal alerts when the trend reverses, eliminating the need for manual trend assessment.
• Moving average filtering improves signal reliability, reducing false signals.
• Supports various signal markers (circles/arrows/labels) to help traders clearly visualize entry points.
4. Moving Average Filtering
• Supports multiple moving average types (SMA, EMA, HMA, WMA, McGinley, etc.), adapting to different trading styles.
• Prevents counter-trend trading:
· Long entries only when the price is above the MA filter.
· Short entries only when the price is below the MA filter.
• Customizable MA periods to suit different market conditions and prevent excessive signal noise.
5. Trading Reference Lines
• Short-term trend: HMA 25 serves as an entry reference line. Waiting for MA color changes before placing trades can improve stability.
• Long-term trend: EMA 200 as the bull-bear division line helps traders distinguish between long-term bullish and bearish trends, avoiding counter-trend trades.
• Dynamic buffer adjustment: Uses ATR-based volatility buffers to reduce false signals and enhance trend detection accuracy.
• Color-coded trend identification:
· Aqua (Bull Market): Price is above the buffer zone.
· Fuchsia (Bear Market): Price is below the buffer zone.
· White: Price is within the buffer zone, indicating an unclear market direction.
USAGE GUIDELINES
1. Applicable Markets
• Suitable for stocks, futures, cryptocurrencies, and forex
• Supports short-term trading, trend trading, and swing trading
2. Recommended Timeframes
• Short-term traders can use 5m, 15m, and 1H timeframes, leveraging secondary trend signals for quick market entries.
• Trend traders can use 4H and daily timeframes, relying on primary trend signals to assess major trends.
• Long-term investors can use the EMA 200 bull-bear division line to determine macro trend direction and avoid counter-trend trades.
3. Trading Strategy
• Long Entry:
The primary trend is bullish (Green).
The secondary trend triggers a buy signal (Long).
• Short Entry:
· The primary trend is bearish (Red).
· The secondary trend triggers a sell signal (Short).
• Enable Moving Average Filtering:
· Only enter long trades when the price is above the MA filter.
· Only enter short trades when the price is below the MA filter.
• Use EMA 200 for Market Direction:
· If the price is above EMA 200 + buffer, the market is in a bullish trend → favor long trades.
· If the price is below EMA 200 - buffer, the market is in a bearish trend → favor short trades.
• Market Volatility Considerations:
· Short timeframes (1m, 5m) may produce more noise, reducing signal reliability.
· Higher timeframes (1H, 4H, Daily) provide more stable trend signals but may miss some short-term trade opportunities.
