Market Trend and Squeeze Indicator MTF - Optimized v3

14小时前

1. Overview
This indicator is designed to identify market trends and consolidation phases using a combination of:

ADX (Average Directional Index) → Measures trend strength.
Keltner Channels (KC) → Helps identify trend channels.
Bollinger Bands (BB) → Measures volatility and price squeeze.
Squeeze Momentum → Determines when the market is “coiling” for a breakout.
Multi-Timeframe Analysis (MTF) → Shows these signals across different timeframes in one table.
Essentially, it tells you whether the market is trending up, trending down, consolidating, or neutral, while also giving a squeeze strength index.

2. Key Components

A. ADX (Trend Strength)
Trending Up / Down: ADX above the trending threshold (default 25).
Consolidating: ADX below the consolidation threshold (default 20).
This helps filter strong trends from weak or sideways markets.

B. Keltner Channels & Bollinger Bands (Squeeze Detection)
Keltner Channels (KC): Shows the average price range using ATR (volatility).
Bollinger Bands (BB): Shows volatility using standard deviation.
Squeeze condition: When BB is inside KC, the market is in a low-volatility consolidation phase, often leading to a breakout.

C. Squeeze Momentum
Measures whether the market is building upward or downward momentum during a squeeze.
Green/blueish colors indicate a strong potential upward breakout, while reddish/pinkish colors indicate potential downward breakout.

D. Multi-Timeframe Table
Shows trend and squeeze status across multiple timeframes (1M, 3M, 5M, 15M, 30M, 1H by default).
Helps traders see both short-term and longer-term trends at a glance.

E. Squeeze Gauge
Displays a 10-point squeeze index for the current timeframe:
Higher value = stronger squeeze.
Colored gradient shows the squeeze strength visually.

3. How to Read the Indicator

A. Trend & Squeeze Table
Each row represents a timeframe.

Cell colors:
Green → Trending Up
Red → Trending Down
Blue/Purple Gradient → Consolidating (squeeze)
Gray → Neutral

Numbers in cells:
Trending → Trend strength (1–10)
Consolidating → Squeeze index (1–10)

This lets you quickly see:
Which timeframes are trending
Which are in consolidation
The relative strength of trends or squeeze

B. Chart Plots
Keltner Channels (green/red lines) → Trend envelopes
Bollinger Bands (purple) → Volatility envelopes
White dots → Market is currently in a squeeze
ADX reference lines → Trend vs consolidation thresholds

C. Alerts
Alerts are triggered when:
Market starts trending (up or down)
Market starts consolidating

4. How Traders Can Use It

Trend Following
Enter trades in the direction of the trend:
Green table → buy / long
Red table → sell / short
Use trend strength numbers to confirm trend strength.

Breakout Strategy
When the squeeze (blue/purple) appears:
Watch for a breakout above/below KC or BB
Use momentum to anticipate direction (green = up, red = down)

Multi-Timeframe Confirmation
Only take trades when multiple timeframes align:
Example: 15M, 30M, and 1H all trending up → stronger buy signal
Mixed signals → avoid trading (market may be choppy)

Risk Management
Use KC or BB levels for stop-loss and target placement
ADX thresholds help avoid entering weak trends
