TASC 2025.03 A New Solution, Removing Moving Average Lag█ OVERVIEW
This script implements a novel technique for removing lag from a moving average, as introduced by John Ehlers in the "A New Solution, Removing Moving Average Lag" article featured in the March 2025 edition of TASC's Traders' Tips .
█ CONCEPTS
In his article, Ehlers explains that the average price in a time series represents a statistical estimate for a block of price values, where the estimate is positioned at the block's center on the time axis. In the case of a simple moving average (SMA), the calculation moves the analyzed block along the time axis and computes an average after each new sample. Because the average's position is at the center of each block, the SMA inherently lags behind price changes by half the data length.
As a solution to removing moving average lag, Ehlers proposes a new projected moving average (PMA) . The PMA smooths price data while maintaining responsiveness by calculating a projection of the average using the data's linear regression slope.
The slope of linear regression on a block of financial time series data can be expressed as the covariance between prices and sample points divided by the variance of the sample points. Ehlers derives the PMA by adding this slope across half the data length to the SMA, creating a first-order prediction that substantially reduces lag:
PMA = SMA + Slope * Length / 2
In addition, the article includes methods for calculating predictions of the PMA and the slope based on second-order and fourth-order differences. The formulas for these predictions are as follows:
PredictPMA = PMA + 0.5 * (Slope - Slope ) * Length
PredictSlope = 1.5 * Slope - 0.5 * Slope
Ehlers suggests that crossings between the predictions and the original values can help traders identify timely buy and sell signals.
█ USAGE
This indicator displays the SMA, PMA, and PMA prediction for a specified series in the main chart pane, and it shows the linear regression slope and prediction in a separate pane. Analyzing the difference between the PMA and SMA can help to identify trends. The differences between PMA or slope and its corresponding prediction can indicate turning points and potential trade opportunities.
The SMA plot uses the chart's foreground color, and the PMA and slope plots are blue by default. The plots of the predictions have a green or red hue to signify direction. Additionally, the indicator fills the space between the SMA and PMA with a green or red color gradient based on their differences:
Users can customize the source series, data length, and plot colors via the inputs in the "Settings/Inputs" tab.
█ NOTES FOR Pine Script® CODERS
The article's code implementation uses a loop to calculate all necessary sums for the slope and SMA calculations. Ported into Pine, the implementation is as follows:
pma(float src, int length) =>
float PMA = 0., float SMA = 0., float Slope = 0.
float Sx = 0.0 , float Sy = 0.0
float Sxx = 0.0 , float Syy = 0.0 , float Sxy = 0.0
for count = 1 to length
float src1 = src
Sx += count
Sy += src
Sxx += count * count
Syy += src1 * src1
Sxy += count * src1
Slope := -(length * Sxy - Sx * Sy) / (length * Sxx - Sx * Sx)
SMA := Sy / length
PMA := SMA + Slope * length / 2
However, loops in Pine can be computationally expensive, and the above loop's runtime scales directly with the specified length. Fortunately, Pine's built-in functions often eliminate the need for loops. This indicator implements the following function, which simplifies the process by using the ta.linreg() and ta.sma() functions to calculate equivalent slope and SMA values efficiently:
pma(float src, int length) =>
float Slope = ta.linreg(src, length, 0) - ta.linreg(src, length, 1)
float SMA = ta.sma(src, length)
float PMA = SMA + Slope * length * 0.5
To learn more about loop elimination in Pine, refer to this section of the User Manual's Profiling and optimization page.
Moving Averages
CSR Ultimate (Final)This indicator calculates and displays a "Candle Strength Ratio" (CSR) to help you gauge bullish versus bearish momentum on a given timeframe. Here’s what it does:
*Multiple Calculation Methods:*
*You can choose among three different methods:*
-Classic CSR: Compares the difference between the upper and lower parts of the candle relative to its total range.
-Weighted Body CSR: Gives more weight to the candle’s body relative to its wicks.
-Close-Focused CSR: Focuses on the net movement from open to close relative to the full range.
*Optional Enhancements:*
The indicator allows you to enable additional features to refine it:
-Volume Weighting: Adjusts the CSR based on the ratio of current volume to a moving average of volume, so a candle on higher-than-average volume might carry more weight.
-ATR Normalization: Normalizes the CSR using the Average True Range (ATR) to account for market volatility.
-Multi-Bar Averaging: Averages the CSR over a specified number of bars to smooth out noise.
-RSI Filter: Optionally checks an RSI condition (bullish if RSI > 50 or bearish if RSI < 50) to help filter out signals that might not be supported by overall momentum.
*Visual and Alert Features:*
The indicator plots the CSR line with color coding (green for bullish, red for bearish) and draws horizontal threshold lines. It also adjusts the chart background color when the CSR exceeds defined bullish or bearish levels and provides alerts when these thresholds are crossed.
MTF- Standard Deviation ChannelWhat Is Standard Deviation?
Standard deviation is a statistical measurement that looks at how far individual points in a dataset are dispersed from the mean of that set. If data points are further from the mean, there is a higher deviation within the data set. It is calculated as the square root of the variance.
Key Takeaways:
Standard deviation measures the dispersion of a dataset relative to its mean.
It is calculated as the square root of the variance.
Standard deviation, in finance, is often used as a measure of the relative riskiness of an asset.
A volatile stock has a high standard deviation, while the deviation of a stable blue-chip stock is usually rather low.
Standard deviation is also used by businesses to assess risk, manage business operations, and plan cash flows based on seasonal changes and volatility.

G-FRAMA | QuantEdgeBIntroducing G-FRAMA by QuantEdgeB
Overview
The Gaussian FRAMA (G-FRAMA) is an adaptive trend-following indicator that leverages the power of Fractal Adaptive Moving Averages (FRAMA), enhanced with a Gaussian filter for noise reduction and an ATR-based dynamic band for trade signal confirmation. This combination results in a highly responsive moving average that adapts to market volatility while filtering out insignificant price movements.
_____
1. Key Features
- 📈 Gaussian Smoothing – Utilizes a Gaussian filter to refine price input, reducing short-term noise while maintaining responsiveness.
- 📊 Fractal Adaptive Moving Average (FRAMA) – A self-adjusting moving average that adapts its sensitivity to market trends.
- 📉 ATR-Based Volatility Bands – Dynamic upper and lower bands based on the Average True Range (ATR), improving signal reliability.
- ⚡ Adaptive Trend Signals – Automatically detects shifts in market structure by evaluating price in relation to FRAMA and its ATR bands.
_____
2. How It Works
- Gaussian Filtering
The Gaussian function preprocesses the price data, giving more weight to recent values and smoothing fluctuations. This reduces whipsaws and allows the FRAMA calculation to focus on meaningful trend developments.
- Fractal Adaptive Moving Average (FRAMA)
Unlike traditional moving averages, FRAMA uses fractal dimension calculations to adjust its smoothing factor dynamically. In trending markets, it reacts faster, while in sideways conditions, it reduces sensitivity, filtering out noise.
- ATR-Based Volatility Bands
ATR is applied to determine upper and lower thresholds around FRAMA:
- 🔹 Long Condition: Price closes above FRAMA + ATR*Multiplier
- 🔻 Short Condition: Price closes below FRAMA - ATR
This setup ensures entries are volatility-adjusted, preventing premature exits or false signals in choppy conditions.
_____
3. Use Cases
✔ Adaptive Trend Trading – Automatically adjusts to different market conditions, making it ideal for both short-term and long-term traders.
✔ Noise-Filtered Entries – Gaussian smoothing prevents false breakouts, allowing for cleaner entries.
✔ Breakout & Volatility Strategies – The ATR bands confirm valid price movements, reducing false signals.
✔ Smooth but Aggressive Shorts – While the indicator is smooth in overall trend detection, it reacts aggressively to downside moves, making it well-suited for traders focusing on short opportunities.
_____
4. Customization Options
- Gaussian Filter Settings – Adjust length & sigma to fine-tune the smoothness of the input price. (Default: Gaussian length = 4, Gaussian sigma = 2.0, Gaussian source = close)
- FRAMA Length & Limits – Modify how quickly FRAMA reacts to price changes.(Default: Base FRAMA = 20, Upper FRAMA Limit = 8, Lower FRAMA Limit = 40)
- ATR Multiplier – Control how wide the volatility bands are for long/short entries.(Default: ATR Length = 14, ATR Multiplier = 1.9)
- Color Themes – Multiple visual styles to match different trading environments.
_____
Conclusion
The G-FRAMA is an intelligent trend-following tool that combines the adaptability of FRAMA with the precision of Gaussian filtering and volatility-based confirmation. It is versatile across different timeframes and asset classes, offering traders an edge in trend detection and trade execution.

HMA 4H and 15M overlay Notes:
HMA Calculation: We calculate three HMAs for the 15-minute timeframe (ma1, ma2, ma3) based on the settings from your original script, but only ma3 is plotted to keep it consistent with your initial setup.
4-hour HMA: An additional HMA is calculated for the 4-hour timeframe (hma4h) using the hma3 period since it was the longest in your original setup, which might be suitable for a 4-hour chart comparison.
Plotting: Both the 15-minute ma3 and 4-hour hma4h HMAs are plotted with distinct colors for easy visual differentiation.
Timeframe Security: request.security() is used to fetch data from different timeframes. Remember, using request.security() with historical data can sometimes lead to misalignments or delayed data, especially during live trading.
This script will overlay the 15-minute HMA (using the ma3 from your settings) with a new 4-hour HMA on any chart timeframe you apply it to. Remember, if you're looking at a chart timeframe that's not 15 minutes or 4 hours, the HMAs might appear less smooth or aligned due to how Pine Script handles different timeframes.

:mag: How It Works
The Kalman filter smooths price fluctuations by dynamically adjusting its weighting based on market volatility. It helps remove noise while keeping the signal reactive to trend changes. The Supertrend calculation is then applied to the filtered price data, providing a robust trend-following mechanism. To enhance signal accuracy, a volatility-weighted range filter is incorporated, creating upper and lower boundaries that define trend conditions. When price breaks out of these boundaries, the indicator confirms trend continuation, while signals within the range indicate market consolidation. Traders can leverage this tool to enhance trade timing, filter false breakouts, and identify optimal entry/exit zones.
Adaptive 12/48 EMAThe Adaptive 12/48 EMA is a trend-following indicator that dynamically changes color based on price positioning relative to key exponential moving averages (EMAs).
EMA Calculation:
The script calculates three EMAs—9 EMA (white), 12 EMA (adaptive color), and 48 EMA (adaptive color).
Trend Confirmation:
The 12 EMA turns green when the price (open, close, and low) is fully above it, indicating bullish momentum. The 12 EMA turns red when the price is fully below it, signaling bearish conditions.
Long-Term Trend (48 EMA):
The 48 EMA turns purple when the 12 EMA is above it, confirming an uptrend. The 48 EMA turns pink when the 12 EMA is below it, confirming a downtrend. Both EMAs turn gray when there's no clear trend.
How to Benefit from It:
Trend Trading: Use green/red shifts in the 12 EMA to time entries in the direction of momentum.
Trend Strength Confirmation: The 48 EMA color change helps determine the longer-term trend direction.
Confluence with Other Indicators: Works well with volume indicators or RSI for confirmation before entering trades.
This indicator provides a clear visual representation of trend strength and direction, helping traders make informed decisions based on price structure.
Responsive Moving Average with Trend Detection - MissouriTimThis indicator calculates a responsive moving average (RMA) that dynamically adjusts its sensitivity based on market volatility. This indicator is more responsive that SMAs, EMAs, WMAs, and HMAs. Here's how it functions:
Dynamic Length Adjustment: Utilizes the Average True Range (ATR) to adjust the length of the moving average. In times of increased volatility, the length decreases to make the average more responsive to price changes, and in quieter markets, it increases to reduce noise.
Responsive and Smoothed Moving Averages:
Responsive EMA: An initial Exponential Moving Average (EMA) is calculated with a dynamically adjusted length for responsiveness.
Smoothing: A secondary layer of smoothing is applied to this responsive EMA to further smooth out price fluctuations.
Trend Detection:
Detects trends by comparing the current smoothed EMA with its previous values:
Uptrend is identified when the current smoothed EMA is higher than the last two periods.
Downtrend is recognized when the current smoothed EMA is lower than the last two periods.
Consolidation occurs when neither an uptrend nor a downtrend is present.
Visual Representation:
The moving average line changes color:
Green for an uptrend.
Red for a downtrend.
Orange for consolidation.
Significant Trend Labels:
Labels are displayed when there's a significant change in the moving average:
Uptrend Labels appear when the EMA increases by more than the user-defined "Uptrend Label on % Change" threshold, placed at the high of the bar with green background.
Downtrend Labels are shown when the EMA decreases by more than the "Downtrend Label on % Change" threshold, positioned at the low of the bar with a red background.
Users can enable or disable these labels, and the thresholds for labeling uptrends and downtrends can be adjusted separately to match market conditions or user preferences.
This indicator is tailored for traders needing a moving average that adapts to market dynamics while providing clear visual feedback on significant trend changes via color-coded lines and labels.
Support and Resistance with Buy/Sell SignalsSwing Highs and Lows:
The script identifies swing highs and lows using the ta.highest and ta.lowest functions over a user-defined swing_length period.
Swing highs are treated as resistance levels.
Swing lows are treated as support levels.
Buy Signal:
A buy signal is generated when the price closes above the resistance level (ta.crossover(close, swing_high)).
Sell Signal:
A sell signal is generated when the price closes below the support level (ta.crossunder(close, swing_low)).
Plotting:
Support and resistance levels are plotted on the chart.
Buy and sell signals are displayed as labels on the chart.
Background Highlighting:
The background is highlighted in green for buy signals and red for sell signals (optional).

MTF Ichimoku Conversion Line SMA with H/L mirrored levelsWelcome to MTF Ichimoku Conversion Line with SMA Highs/Lows Extended Lines!
1. Overview
It is designed to provide a multi-timeframe view of market trends and potential support/resistance levels by obtaining a Simple Moving Average (SMA) of the Conversion Line of Ichimoku Equibilium (Ichimoku Kinko-Hyo), which acts as a substantial trend line on the candlestick chart. The SMA of the conversion line smooths out price fluctuations and indicates the overall trend direction—if the candles are above it, the trend can be read as an uptrend, while below it, the trend can be read as a downtrend.
2. Calculation
The indicator first calculates the Conversion Line (see the description of Ichimoku theory anywhere, e.g., Wikipedia), as the average of the highest high and lowest low over a user-defined period (Conversion Line Length, default is 9, also recommended is 9).
It then retrieves this Conversion Line from a higher timeframe (MTF Timeframe) to add a broader perspective. Using a specified period (SMA Length)., an SMA is computed on this multi-timeframe conversion line. This SMA serves as a trend line that visually represents the prevailing price trend, making it easier to assess market direction.
3. Pivot Highs/low detection and drawing their extensions
In addition, the indicator identifies pivot highs and lows from the SMA data using a defined pivot length. When these pivots occur, horizontal lines are drawn and extended across the chart. These extended lines (drawn in a yellowish color by default) include a full extension, a half extension, and a middle extension line representing the midpoint between the high and low pivot.
4. Mirror lines
The indicator also offers optional mirror line features. When the Mirror Upside option is enabled, five additional lines are drawn above the highest extended yellow line at equal intervals. Similarly, when the Mirror Downside option is enabled, five lines are drawn below the lowest extended yellow line. These light gray mirror lines serve as extra reference levels, which can help identify potential support or resistance zones.
5. Parameters
User parameters include:
- Conversion Line Length: The period used to calculate the conversion line.
- MTF Timeframe: The higher timeframe from which the conversion line is obtained.
- SMA Length: The period over which the SMA is calculated on the conversion line.
- SMA Mode: A toggle to display either the SMA or the raw conversion line (SMA recommended).
- SMA Line Width: The thickness of the SMA line.
- Pivot Length for SMA Highs/Lows: The period used to detect pivot highs and lows in the SMA.
- Horizontal Extension: Number of bars by which the pivot and extended lines are drawn across the chart
- Colors for High and Low Pivot Lines and Extended Lines: Customizable colors are used to draw the lines.
Mirror Upside and Mirror Downside: These options enable drawing additional mirror lines above and below the extended lines.
- Hide Old Lines: An option to hide previous pivot lines once new ones are drawn for a cleaner chart. Turned on by default.
6. Conclusion
Overall, the Conversion Line SMA in this indicator smooths out the conversion line data and effectively functions as a trend line for the candlestick chart, helping traders visually interpret the underlying market trend. The extended and mirror lines provide further context for potential price reversal or continuation areas, making this a powerful tool for multi-timeframe technical analysis.

MTF Signal XpertMTF Signal Xpert – Detailed Description
Overview:
MTF Signal Xpert is a proprietary, open‑source trading signal indicator that fuses multiple technical analysis methods into one cohesive strategy. Developed after rigorous backtesting and extensive research, this advanced tool is designed to deliver clear BUY and SELL signals by analyzing trend, momentum, and volatility across various timeframes. Its integrated approach not only enhances signal reliability but also incorporates dynamic risk management, helping traders protect their capital while navigating complex market conditions.
Detailed Explanation of How It Works:
Trend Detection via Moving Averages
Dual Moving Averages:
MTF Signal Xpert computes two moving averages—a fast MA and a slow MA—with the flexibility to choose from Simple (SMA), Exponential (EMA), or Hull (HMA) methods. This dual-MA system helps identify the prevailing market trend by contrasting short-term momentum with longer-term trends.
Crossover Logic:
A BUY signal is initiated when the fast MA crosses above the slow MA, coupled with the condition that the current price is above the lower Bollinger Band. This suggests that the market may be emerging from a lower price region. Conversely, a SELL signal is generated when the fast MA crosses below the slow MA and the price is below the upper Bollinger Band, indicating potential bearish pressure.
Recent Crossover Confirmation:
To ensure that signals reflect current market dynamics, the script tracks the number of bars since the moving average crossover event. Only crossovers that occur within a user-defined “candle confirmation” period are considered, which helps filter out outdated signals and improves overall signal accuracy.
Volatility and Price Extremes with Bollinger Bands
Calculation of Bands:
Bollinger Bands are calculated using a 20‑period simple moving average as the central basis, with the upper and lower bands derived from a standard deviation multiplier. This creates dynamic boundaries that adjust according to recent market volatility.
Signal Reinforcement:
For BUY signals, the condition that the price is above the lower Bollinger Band suggests an undervalued market condition, while for SELL signals, the price falling below the upper Bollinger Band reinforces the bearish bias. This volatility context adds depth to the moving average crossover signals.
Momentum Confirmation Using Multiple Oscillators
RSI (Relative Strength Index):
The RSI is computed over 14 periods to determine if the market is in an overbought or oversold state. Only readings within an optimal range (defined by user inputs) validate the signal, ensuring that entries are made during balanced conditions.
MACD (Moving Average Convergence Divergence):
The MACD line is compared with its signal line to assess momentum. A bullish scenario is confirmed when the MACD line is above the signal line, while a bearish scenario is indicated when it is below, thus adding another layer of confirmation.
Awesome Oscillator (AO):
The AO measures the difference between short-term and long-term simple moving averages of the median price. Positive AO values support BUY signals, while negative values back SELL signals, offering additional momentum insight.
ADX (Average Directional Index):
The ADX quantifies trend strength. MTF Signal Xpert only considers signals when the ADX value exceeds a specified threshold, ensuring that trades are taken in strongly trending markets.
Optional Stochastic Oscillator:
An optional stochastic oscillator filter can be enabled to further refine signals. It checks for overbought conditions (supporting SELL signals) or oversold conditions (supporting BUY signals), thus reducing ambiguity.
Multi-Timeframe Verification
Higher Timeframe Filter:
To align short-term signals with broader market trends, the script calculates an EMA on a higher timeframe as specified by the user. This multi-timeframe approach helps ensure that signals on the primary chart are consistent with the overall trend, thereby reducing false signals.
Dynamic Risk Management with ATR
ATR-Based Calculations:
The Average True Range (ATR) is used to measure current market volatility. This value is multiplied by a user-defined factor to dynamically determine stop loss (SL) and take profit (TP) levels, adapting to changing market conditions.
Visual SL/TP Markers:
The calculated SL and TP levels are plotted on the chart as distinct colored dots, enabling traders to quickly identify recommended exit points.
Optional Trailing Stop:
An optional trailing stop feature is available, which adjusts the stop loss as the trade moves favorably, helping to lock in profits while protecting against sudden reversals.
Risk/Reward Ratio Calculation:
MTF Signal Xpert computes a risk/reward ratio based on the dynamic SL and TP levels. This quantitative measure allows traders to assess whether the potential reward justifies the risk associated with a trade.
Condition Weighting and Signal Scoring
Binary Condition Checks:
Each technical condition—ranging from moving average crossovers, Bollinger Band positioning, and RSI range to MACD, AO, ADX, and volume filters—is assigned a binary score (1 if met, 0 if not).
Cumulative Scoring:
These individual scores are summed to generate cumulative bullish and bearish scores, quantifying the overall strength of the signal and providing traders with an objective measure of its viability.
Detailed Signal Explanation:
A comprehensive explanation string is generated, outlining which conditions contributed to the current BUY or SELL signal. This explanation is displayed on an on‑chart dashboard, offering transparency and clarity into the signal generation process.
On-Chart Visualizations and Debug Information
Chart Elements:
The indicator plots all key components—moving averages, Bollinger Bands, SL and TP markers—directly on the chart, providing a clear visual framework for understanding market conditions.
Combined Dashboard:
A dedicated dashboard displays key metrics such as RSI, ADX, and the bullish/bearish scores, alongside a detailed explanation of the current signal. This consolidated view allows traders to quickly grasp the underlying logic.
Debug Table (Optional):
For advanced users, an optional debug table is available. This table breaks down each individual condition, indicating which criteria were met or not met, thus aiding in further analysis and strategy refinement.
Mashup Justification and Originality
MTF Signal Xpert is more than just an aggregation of existing indicators—it is an original synthesis designed to address real-world trading complexities. Here’s how its components work together:
Integrated Trend, Volatility, and Momentum Analysis:
By combining moving averages, Bollinger Bands, and multiple oscillators (RSI, MACD, AO, ADX, and an optional stochastic), the indicator captures diverse market dynamics. Each component reinforces the others, reducing noise and filtering out false signals.
Multi-Timeframe Analysis:
The inclusion of a higher timeframe filter aligns short-term signals with longer-term trends, enhancing overall reliability and reducing the potential for contradictory signals.
Adaptive Risk Management:
Dynamic stop loss and take profit levels, determined using ATR, ensure that the risk management strategy adapts to current market conditions. The optional trailing stop further refines this approach, protecting profits as the market evolves.
Quantitative Signal Scoring:
The condition weighting system provides an objective measure of signal strength, giving traders clear insight into how each technical component contributes to the final decision.

Combo Gama Exposure + EMA + SMA 1.0Gamma Exposure (GEX) for the CBOE Volatility Index ( TVC:VIX ) is an estimate of how much option sellers need to hedge for every 1% change in the underlying asset's price. It's also known as Gamma Levels.
How is GEX calculated?
GEX is calculated based on a 1% move of the underlying security
It's calculated and updated throughout the day
It's based on market positioning and open interest
These regions are important because they show the regions where players can act more aggressively to defend their positions. When inserting the indicator on the chart, a popup will open requesting the GEX levels (Put wall, Vix Call Wall 0DTE, etc.)
In addition, 3 moving averages will be inserted into the chart. A 9-period exponential moving average, a 20-period arithmetic moving average, and a 200-period arithmetic moving average. These moving averages aim to indicate the possible trend of the asset, where pullbacks in these averages can signal a possible entry in favor of the trend.
Moneyball EMA-MACD indicator [VinnieTheFish]Summary of the Moneyball EMA-MACD Indicator Script
Author: VinnieTheFish
Purpose:
This indicator helps traders identify trend direction, momentum shifts, and potential trade signals based on EMA and MACD crossovers.
This Pine Script is a custom indicator that combines Exponential Moving Averages (EMAs) and MACD (Moving Average Convergence Divergence) to analyze price trends and momentum. The script uses a custom 9/50 MACD with a 16 smoothing period. The script is written in a way that you can create your own custom MACD settings and create alerts based on those parameters. The chart bars are color coded based on the relative position of the MACD and Signal line primarily for bullish long trade setups.
Bar color coding helps the trader spot potential reversals based on where the price currently resides in relation to the custom 9/50 EMA based MACD and the 16 period smoothing period for the signal line. Indicator also has custom alerts to notify the trader when a potential trade setup exists that correspond with the bar color change.
Question: So why is this called the Moneywell EMA-MACD Indicator?
Answer: In the movie Moneyball the Oakland A's broke down how to win a championship based on data. To make the playoffs you needed so many wins, then broken down by runs and then broken down to base hits. A base hit was good as a walk. With trading often times we look too often for home runs and ignore the importance of getting on base with small wins. This indicator was designed on shorter timeframes to identify those base hits, but can also be adapted to higher timeframes for swing trading.
Key Features:
