Trendsurfer - A new type of moving average algorithm

marketmusician Updated   
Using a new type of lag reducing moving average algorithm, this indicator adapts it's sensitivity based on the strength of the trend and the volatility of the asset.
In doing so, signals can be given extremely fast during favorable market conditions. False signals can still appear, so visual confirmation/judgement is required before taking a trade.

The indicator:

Trend Bias Moving average. Thick green and orange line shows us trend bias.
- If the moving average is green, then the average price level is above the moving average = overall bullish conditions.
- As the moving average draws closer to price, or is straight, conditions are changing
- If the moving average is orange, then the average price level is below the moving average = overall bearish conditions.

Dual lag reduced instantaneous moving average.
This moving average is adaptive and fast, and will give buy and sell signals on crossover with price (EMA 6).

Buy and sell signals are shown visually using up and down arrow.
IMPORTANT: To filter out false signals, check other MA's like the 50 period hull moving average (dotted plot) for visual confirmation.

Furthermore, Significant support and resistance levels can be found on the right, shown as dotted horizontal lines. The importance of these levels is calculated based on the strength of the support/rejection, the volume, and the amount of times resistance and support was tested.
The location of the nearest moving averages below and above is also included as further potential support and resistance.


What to watch out for a good entry

- Watch for price to break out of the gray zone, and/or successfully retest it for a great entry.


Make your own decisions and never solely rely on a tool that should only be giving you an "indication".

Happy Trading,
MM
