Core logic

The Ehlers Instantaneous Trendline (IT) applies a recursive filter to price data using a user-defined alpha parameter. This approach emphasizes responsiveness while maintaining smoothing properties.

Key principles:

* the alpha parameter controls responsiveness versus smoothness
* the recursive calculation reduces lag compared to classical moving averages
* the Instantaneous Trendline represents the dominant price trend
* a trigger line is derived to highlight momentum shifts
* crossovers between IT and trigger indicate potential trend changes

This structure allows early detection of trend transitions with reduced delay.

Visualization

The script plots:

* the Instantaneous Trendline directly on the price chart
* a trigger line for trend change confirmation
* individually configurable colors for both lines
* clean line rendering for precise visual interpretation

The dual-line setup provides clear insight into trend direction and momentum alignment.

Use case

This indicator is intended for:

* identifying trend direction with minimal lag
* detecting early trend changes
* confirming momentum shifts via trigger crossovers
* filtering entries in trend-following strategies
* supporting advanced and AI-assisted market analysis

It is especially effective in fast-moving markets and when combined with price structure or momentum filters.
