(Decode) Moving Average Toolkit(Decode) Moving Average Toolkit: Your All-in-One MA Analysis Powerhouse
The Decode MAT is a comprehensive TradingView indicator designed to give you deep insights into market trends and potential trading signals using a versatile set of moving averages (MAs) and related tools. It's built for traders who want flexibility and a clear visual representation of MA-based strategies.
Here’s a breakdown of its key features and how you might use them in your trading:
1. Extensive Moving Average Options (5 EMAs & 5 SMAs)
What it is: The toolkit provides you with ten moving averages in total:
- Five Exponential Moving Averages (EMAs)
- Five Simple Moving Averages (SMAs)
Customization: You can set the length (period) for each of these ten MAs independently. This means you can track very short-term price action, long-term trends, and anything in between, all on one chart.
Visibility Control: Each MA line can be individually turned on or off directly from the "Inputs" tab using its "Show EMA X" or "Show SMA X" checkbox. This keeps your chart clean and focused. The color and line width for each MA are pre-defined in the script (EMAs are blueish with transparency, SMAs are solid with corresponding colors) but can be further customized in the "Style" tab of the indicator settings.
Defaults: EMA 1 (10-period) and EMA 2 (20-period) are visible by default. SMA 3 (50-period) and SMA 5 (200-period) are also visible by default. Other MAs are off by default.
Trading Ideas:
Trend Identification: Use longer-term MAs (e.g., 50, 100, 200-period SMA or EMA) to identify the overall market direction. Price above these MAs generally suggests an uptrend; price below suggests a downtrend.
Dynamic Support & Resistance: MAs can act as dynamic levels of support in an uptrend or resistance in a downtrend. Watch for price bouncing off these MAs.
Multi-Timeframe Feel: By plotting MAs of different lengths (e.g., a 20-period for short-term and a 200-period for long-term), you can get a sense of how different market participants might be viewing the trend.
2. EMA/SMA Ribbons (5 Hardcoded Pairs)
What it is: The indicator can display up to five "ribbons." Each ribbon is hardcoded to visually fill the space between a specific EMA and its numerically corresponding SMA:
- Ribbon 1: EMA 1 / SMA 1
- Ribbon 2: EMA 2 / SMA 2
- Ribbon 3: EMA 3 / SMA 3
- Ribbon 4: EMA 4 / SMA 4
- Ribbon 5: EMA 5 / SMA 5
Enable/Disable: Each of these five ribbons can be individually turned on or off from the "Inputs" tab using its "Show Ribbon EMAX/SMAX" checkbox. A ribbon will appear if its toggle is checked, regardless of whether its constituent MA lines are currently visible (the fill uses the underlying plot data).
Defaults: Ribbon 3 (EMA3/SMA3) is visible by default. Other ribbons are off by default.
Color-Coded Insights:
Green Ribbon: Appears when the EMA is above its corresponding SMA, often indicating bullish momentum or an uptrend for that pair.
Red Ribbon: Appears when the EMA is below its corresponding SMA, often indicating bearish momentum or a downtrend for that pair.
Trading Ideas:
Trend Strength & Confirmation: A widening ribbon can suggest increasing trend strength. A ribbon consistently staying one color (e.g., green) reinforces the current trend.
Entry/Exit Signals: Some traders look for the ribbon to change color as a potential signal. For example, a change from red to green might be a bullish entry signal, while green to red might be bearish.
Visualizing Momentum: The ribbons provide an immediate visual cue of the relationship between the faster-reacting EMA and the smoother SMA for standard MA pairings.
3. Configurable Crossover Alerts & On-Chart Symbols (Up to 5 Alerts)
What it is: This is a powerful feature for signal generation. You can set up to five independent crossover alert conditions.
Flexible MA Selection for Alerts: For each of the five alerts, you can choose any two moving averages from the ten available (5 EMAs, 5 SMAs) to act as your "Fast MA" and "Slow MA."
On-Chart Visual Symbols:
When a configured "Fast MA" crosses above the "Slow MA" (a bullish crossover), a green upward triangle (▲) can be plotted below the price bar.
When a configured "Fast MA" crosses below the "Slow MA" (a bearish crossover), a red downward triangle (▼) can be plotted above the price bar.
A symbol will only appear if: 1) The main "Enable Alert X" checkbox is active, 2) The crossover condition is met, AND 3) The "Show Symbols for Alert X" checkbox is active.
Defaults: Alert 1 (EMA 1 / EMA 2 cross) is enabled with symbols on. Alert 5 (SMA 3 / SMA 5 cross) is enabled with symbols on. Alerts 2, 3, and 4 are disabled by default.
TradingView Alert Integration: The script defines these crossover conditions. You can then go into TradingView's alert manager, select this indicator, and choose a specific condition (e.g., "Alert 1 Bullish Cross") to receive notifications.
Trading Ideas:
Classic & Custom Crossover Signals: Set up alerts for well-known patterns like the Golden/Death Cross, or create alerts for crossovers between any MAs relevant to your strategy.
Entry/Exit Triggers: Use crossover alerts as potential entry or exit signals.
Multi-Condition Confirmation: Combine alert signals with the visual information from the ribbons and overall MA structure.
4. General Customization
Price Source: You can choose what price data the moving averages are calculated from (e.g., Close, Open, High, Low, (H+L)/2, etc.).
Overall Trading Strategies & Benefits
The (Decode) Moving Average Toolkit is designed for versatility:
Trend Following: Use long-term MAs for trend direction, and shorter-term MA crossovers (with alerts) or ribbon changes for entries in the direction of that trend.
Swing Trading: Identify swings using medium-term MAs and look for pullbacks or crossovers as entry points, confirmed by ribbon behavior.
Momentum Confirmation: Gauge trend strength using the relationship between multiple MAs, visualized through the ribbons.
Focused Charting: Toggle the visibility of individual MAs and ribbons to keep your chart relevant to your current analysis.
Automated Scanning (via Alerts): Set up alerts for your preferred crossover conditions across multiple instruments and let TradingView notify you.

SuperTrade ST1 StrategyOverview
The SuperTrade ST1 Strategy is a long-only trend-following strategy that combines a Supertrend indicator with a 200-period EMA filter to isolate high-probability bullish trade setups. It is designed to operate in trending markets, using volatility-based exits with a strict 1:4 Risk-to-Reward (R:R) ratio, meaning that each trade targets a profit 4× the size of its predefined risk.
This strategy is ideal for traders looking to align with medium- to long-term trends, while maintaining disciplined risk control and minimal trade frequency.
How It Works
This strategy leverages three key components:
Supertrend Indicator
A trend-following indicator based on Average True Range (ATR).
Identifies bullish/bearish trend direction by plotting a trailing stop line that moves with price volatility.
200-period Exponential Moving Average (EMA) Filter
Trades are only taken when the price is above the EMA, ensuring participation only during confirmed uptrends.
Helps filter out counter-trend entries during market pullbacks or ranges.
ATR-Based Stop Loss and Take Profit
Each trade uses the ATR to calculate volatility-adjusted exit levels.
Stop Loss: 1× ATR below entry.
Take Profit: 4× ATR above entry (1:4 R:R).
This asymmetry ensures that even with a lower win rate, the strategy can remain profitable.
Entry Conditions
A long trade is triggered when:
Supertrend flips from bearish to bullish (trend reversal).
Price closes above the Supertrend line.
Price is above the 200 EMA (bullish market bias).
Exit Logic
Once a long position is entered:
Stop loss is set 1 ATR below entry.
Take profit is set 4 ATR above entry.
The strategy automatically exits the position on either target.
Backtest Settings
This strategy is configured for realistic backtesting, including:
$10,000 account size
2% equity risk per trade
0.1% commission
1 tick slippage
These settings aim to simulate real-world conditions and avoid overly optimistic results.
How to Use
Apply the script to any timeframe, though higher timeframes (1H, 4H, Daily) often yield more reliable signals.
Works best in clearly trending markets (especially in crypto, stocks, indices).
Can be paired with alerts for live trading or analysis.
Important Notes
This version is long-only by design. No short positions are executed.
Ideal for swing traders or position traders seeking asymmetric returns.
Users can modify the ATR period, Supertrend factor, or EMA filter length based on asset behavior.
21 EMA + VWAP Trend Bias
21 EMA + VWAP Trend Bias
This indicator combines the 21-period Exponential Moving Average (EMA) and the Volume-Weighted Average Price (VWAP) to provide a simple yet effective visual trend bias tool.
🔍 Core Features:
21 EMA Line (Orange): Tracks the short-to-mid-term price trend.
VWAP Line (Blue): Reflects the average trading price, weighted by volume, often used by institutional traders.
Trend Bias Highlight:
Green Background: Bullish bias — price is above both the 21 EMA and VWAP.
Red Background: Bearish bias — price is below both the 21 EMA and VWAP.
No Background: Neutral or mixed signals.
⚙️ Use Cases:
Quickly assess market trend direction at a glance.
Confirm entry or exit signals with dual-layer trend validation.
Great for intraday and swing traders who value clean, unobtrusive chart setups.
weighted support or resistance linesQ: Why should users choose this script?
A: I found that in all the publicly available scripts about support and resistance lines, there is basically no weight identification for these lines. In other words, users do not know which support or resistance lines are the most important. So I specifically wrote this script.
1. By adjusting the weights, only the most effective support or resistance lines are displayed. (Length threshold of trend price (Bar))
2. By selecting the number of K-lines, only the latest number of support or resistance lines generated will be displayed. (Maximum number of reserved S/R lines)
3. By selecting whether to automatically remove lines, only support or resistance lines that have not been penetrated by the k-line will be displayed. If this function is checked, the weight can be adjusted lower, as high-weight SR may have already been penetrated, and the newly generated SR may have a lower weight. (Automatically remove lines penetrated by closing price confirmation)
4. Notes: The default parameters work well in 15-minute candlestick charts. For candlestick charts with other time periods, the parameters can be adjusted appropriately. It is suitable for sideways trading but not for strong trends.
5. I'm quite satisfied with the performance of the script, as I specifically optimized it, lol
Institutional Support/Resistance Locator🏛️ Institutional Support/Resistance Locator
Overview
The Institutional Support/Resistance Locator identifies high-probability demand and supply zones based on strong price rejection, large candle bodies, and elevated volume . These zones are commonly targeted or defended by institutional participants, helping traders anticipate potential reversal or continuation areas.
⸻
How It Works
The indicator uses a confluence of conditions to detect zones:
• Large Body Candles: Body size must exceed the moving average body size multiplied by a user-defined factor.
• High Volume: Volume must exceed the moving average volume by a configurable multiplier.
• Wick Rejection: Candles must show strong upper or lower wicks indicating aggressive rejection.
• If all criteria are met:
• Bullish candles form a Demand Zone.
• Bearish candles form a Supply Zone.
Each zone is plotted for a customizable number of future bars, representing areas where institutions may re-engage with the market.
⸻
Key Features
• ✅ Highlights institutional demand and supply areas dynamically
• ✅ Customizable sensitivity: body, volume, wick, padding, and zone extension
• ✅ Zones plotted as translucent regions with auto-expiry
• ✅ Works across all timeframes and markets
⸻
How to Use
• Trend Traders: Use demand zones for potential bounce entries in uptrends, and supply zones for pullback short entries in downtrends.
• Range Traders: Use zones as potential reversal points inside sideways market structures.
• Scalpers & Intraday Traders: Combine with volume or price action near zones for refined entries.
Always validate zone reactions with supporting indicators or price behavior.
⸻
Why This Combination?
The combination of wick rejection, volume confirmation, and large candle structure is designed to reflect footprints of smart money. Rather than relying on fixed pivots or subjective zones, this logic adapts to the current market context with statistically grounded conditions.
⸻
Why It’s Worth Using
This tool offers traders a structured way to interpret institutional activity on charts without relying on guesswork. By plotting potential high-impact areas, it helps improve reaction time.
⸻
Note :
• This script is open-source and non-commercial.
• No performance guarantees or unrealistic claims are made.

Triangle Breakout Strategy with TP/SL, EMA Filter📌 Triangle Breakout Strategy with TP/SL, EMA Filters, and Backtest – Explained.
✅ 1. Pattern Detection – Triangle Breakout
The script scans for triangle patterns by detecting local pivot highs and pivot lows.
It uses two recent highs and two recent lows to draw converging trendlines (upper and lower boundaries of the triangle).
If the price breaks above the upper trendline, a bullish breakout signal is generated.
🎯 2. TP (Take Profit) & SL (Stop Loss)
When a bullish breakout is detected:
A buy order is placed using strategy.entry.
TP and SL levels are calculated relative to the current close price:
TP = 3% above the entry price
SL = 1.5% below the entry price
These are defined using strategy.exit.
📊 3. EMA Filter
An optional filter checks if:
Price is above both EMA 20 and EMA 50
Only if this condition is met, the strategy allows a long entry.
You can toggle the filter on or off with useEMAFilter.
📈 4. Backtesting with Strategy Tester
This script uses strategy() instead of indicator() to enable TradingView’s built-in backtest engine.
Every buy entry and exit (based on TP or SL) is recorded.
📌 5. Visuals
EMA 20 and EMA 50 lines are plotted on the chart.
A label is shown when a breakout is detected: "Breakout Up"
Results (profit, win rate, drawdown, etc.) can be viewed in the Strategy Tester panel.

RSI-EMA-Crossing with Donchian-Stop-LossThe Donchian RSI Indicator is a visual tool that combines momentum and trend analysis to identify high-quality long opportunities based on RSI crossovers, price action, and Donchian channel dynamics.
How It Works
Momentum Signal: A bullish RSI crossover is detected when the RSI crosses above its moving average.
Trend Filter: A signal is only valid if the crossover occurs while the price is above its moving average – filtering out entries against the prevailing trend.
Signal Candle: The high of the crossover candle is stored.
Entry Trigger: A valid signal occurs when a later candle closes above that signal high.
Stop-Loss (Visual Only)
The lower band of the Donchian Channel acts as a visual reference for a dynamic stop-loss level.
Features
Customizable RSI, Donchian Channel, and moving average lengths
Selectable MA types: SMA, EMA, WMA, VWMA, HMA
Signal candle highlighted (yellow background)
Entry points labeled on the chart

Optimized for use on daily or 4H charts
Z-Score Trend Monitor [EdgeTerminal]The Z-Score Trend Monitor measures how far the short-term moving average deviates from the long-term moving average using the spread difference of the two — in standardized units. It’s designed to detect overextension, momentum exhaustion, and potential mean-reversion points by converting the spread between two moving averages into a normalized Z-score and tracking its change and direction over time.
The idea behind this is to catch the changes in the direction of a trend earlier than the usual and lagging moving average lines, allowing you to react faster.
The math behind the indicator itself is very simple. We take the simple moving average of the spread between a long term and short term moving average, and divide it by the difference between the spread and spread mean.
This results in a relatively accurate and early acting trend detector that can easily identify overbought and oversold levels in any timeframe. From our own testing, we recommend using this indicator as a trend confirmation tool.
How to Use It:
Keep an eye on the Z-Score or the blue line. When it goes over 2, it indicates an overbought or near top level, and when it goes below -2, it indicates an oversold or near bottom.
When Z-Score returns to zero or grey line, it suggests mean reversion is in progress.
You can also change the Z-Score criteria from 2 and -2 in the settings to any number you’d like for tighter or wider levels.
For scalping and fast trading setups, we recommend shorter SMAs, such as 5 and 20, and for longer trading setups such as swing trades, we recommend 20 and 100.
Settings:
Short SMA: Lookback period of short term simple moving average for the lower side of the SMA spread.
Short Term Weight: Additional weight or multiplier to suppress the short term SMA calculation. This is used to refine the SMA calculation for more granular and edge cases when needed, usually left at 1, meaning it will take the entire given value in the short SMA field.
Long SMA: Lookback period of long term simple moving average for the upper side of the SMA spread.
Long Term Weight: Additional weight or multiplier to suppress the long term SMA calculation. This is used to refine the long SMA calculation for more granular and edge cases when needed, usually left at 1, meaning it will take the entire given value in the long SMA field.
Z-Score Threshold: The threshold for upper (oversold) and lower (overbought) levels. This can also be set individually from the style page.
Z-Score Lookback Window: The lookback period to calculate spread mean and spread standard deviation
C&B Auto MK5C&B Auto MK5.2ema BullBear
Overview
The C&B Auto MK5.2ema BullBear is a versatile Pine Script indicator designed to help traders identify bullish and bearish market conditions across various timeframes. It combines Exponential Moving Averages (EMAs), Relative Strength Index (RSI), Average True Range (ATR), and customizable time filters to generate actionable signals. The indicator overlays on the price chart, displaying EMAs, a dynamic cloud, scaled RSI levels, bull/bear signals, and market condition labels, making it suitable for swing trading, day trading, or scalping in trending or volatile markets.
What It Does
This indicator generates bull and bear signals based on the interaction of two EMAs, filtered by RSI thresholds, ATR-based volatility, a 50/200 EMA trend filter, and user-defined time windows. It adapts to market volatility by adjusting EMA lengths and RSI thresholds. A dynamic cloud highlights trend direction or neutral zones, with candlestick coloring in neutral conditions. Market condition labels (current and historical) provide real-time trend and volatility context, displayed above the chart.
How It Works
The indicator uses the following components:
EMAs: Two EMAs (short and long) are calculated on a user-selected timeframe (1, 5, 15, 30, or 60 minutes). Their crossover or crossunder triggers potential bull/bear signals. EMA lengths adjust based on volatility (e.g., 10/20 for volatile markets, 5/10 for non-volatile).
Dynamic Cloud: The area between the EMAs forms a cloud, colored green for bullish trends, red for bearish trends, or a user-defined color (default yellow) for neutral zones (when EMAs are close, determined by an ATR-based threshold). Users can widen the cloud for visibility.
RSI Filter: RSI is scaled to price levels and plotted on the chart (optional). Signals are filtered to ensure RSI is within volatility-adjusted bull/bear thresholds and not in overbought/oversold zones.
ATR Volatility Filter: An optional filter ensures signals occur during sufficient volatility (ATR(14) > SMA(ATR, 20)).
50/200 EMA Trend Filter: An optional filter restricts bull signals to bullish trends (50 EMA > 200 EMA) and bear signals to bearish trends (50 EMA < 200 EMA).
Time Filter: Signals are restricted to a user-defined UTC time window (default 9:00–15:00), aligning with active trading sessions.
Market Condition Labels: Labels above the chart display the current trend (Bullish, Bearish, Neutral) and optionally volatility (e.g., “Bullish Volatile”). Up to two historical labels persist for a user-defined number of bars (default 5) to show recent trend changes.
Visual Aids: Bull signals appear as green triangles/labels below the bar, bear signals as red triangles/labels above. Candlesticks in neutral zones are colored (default yellow).
The indicator ensures compatibility with standard chart types (e.g., candlestick or bar charts) to produce realistic signals, avoiding non-standard types like Heikin Ashi or Renko.
How to Use It
Add to Chart: Apply the indicator to a candlestick or bar chart on TradingView.
Configure Settings:
Timeframe: Choose a timeframe (1, 5, 15, 30, or 60 minutes) to match your trading style.
Filters:
Enable/disable the ATR volatility filter to focus on high-volatility periods.
Enable/disable the 50/200 EMA trend filter to align signals with the broader trend.
Enable the time filter and set custom UTC hours/minutes (default 9:00–15:00).
Cloud Settings: Adjust the cloud width, neutral zone threshold, color, and transparency.
EMA Colors: Use default trend-based colors or set custom colors for short/long EMAs.
RSI Display: Toggle the scaled RSI and its thresholds, with customizable colors.
Signal Settings: Toggle bull/bear labels and set signal colors.
Market Condition Labels: Toggle current/historical labels, include/exclude volatility, and adjust decay period.
Interpret Signals:
Bull Signal: A green triangle or “Bull” label below the bar indicates potential bullish momentum (EMA crossover, RSI above bull threshold, within time window, passing filters).
Bear Signal: A red triangle or “Bear” label above the bar indicates potential bearish momentum (EMA crossunder, RSI below bear threshold, within time window, passing filters).
Neutral Zone: Yellow candlesticks and cloud (if enabled) suggest a lack of clear trend; consider range-bound strategies or avoid trading.
Market Condition Labels: Check labels above the chart for real-time trend (Bullish, Bearish, Neutral) and volatility status to confirm market context.
Monitor Context: Use the cloud, RSI, and labels to assess trend strength and volatility before acting on signals.
Unique Features
Volatility-Adaptive EMAs: Automatically adjusts EMA lengths based on ATR to suit volatile or non-volatile markets, reducing manual configuration.
Neutral Zone Detection: Uses an ATR-based threshold to identify low-trend periods, helping traders avoid choppy markets.
Scaled RSI Visualization: Plots RSI and thresholds directly on the price chart, simplifying momentum analysis relative to price.
Flexible Time Filtering: Supports precise UTC-based trading windows, ideal for day traders targeting specific sessions.
Historical Market Labels: Displays recent trend changes (up to two) with a decay period, providing context for market shifts.
50/200 EMA Trend Filter: Aligns signals with the broader market trend, enhancing signal reliability.
Notes
Use on standard candlestick or bar charts to ensure accurate signals.
Test the indicator on a demo account to optimize settings for your market and timeframe.
Combine with other analysis (e.g., support/resistance, volume) for better decision-making.
The indicator is not a standalone system; use it as part of a broader trading strategy.
Limitations
Signals may lag in fast-moving markets due to EMA-based calculations.
Neutral zone detection may vary in extremely volatile or illiquid markets.
