This script will identify candles that close with a "Higher High and Higher Close" and "Lower Low Lower Close" than previous candle, making super easy to identify price action momentum.
I added to this fantastic price action concept a simple filter to follow the trend, by default it compares price to a 50 SMA. If above the SMA it shows only up signals, if below it shows only down signals.
SMA can be changed to any lenght and if you want to get all the HHHC / LLLC just set the SMA to 1
//Thinking I may add some alert capability in the future just to practice a little more using Pine Editor but it is useful as it is.
