INDICATOR FOR TRADINGVIEW
TREND SYSTEM
The indicator checks trend direction on multiple timeframes. It send you alerts when trend changes direction on two timeframes. It suggests you entries for reversal trades and trades on pullbacks in direction of the trend.
On the chart you see two trend lines:
Floating text labels show exact current support/resistance on two timeframes:
"Buy" and "Sell" signals: change in direction of the trend

- When the price is trending down both on a base and higher time frames the indicator draws “Buy” or “Sell” signals and change colors of candles.
-
When the price is trending up on both, a base and higher time frames, the indicator colors candles in green color
-
When after a period when prices were trending down price breaks over a minor resistance (the thin red line ) and a bar closes over that minor resistance the trend switches from down (red color) to neutral ( grey color ).
-
When after a period when prices were trending up price breaks under a minor support (the thin line ) and a bar closes under that minor support the trend switches from up (green color) to neutral ( grey color )
-
When a new uptrend is detected signal “Buy” is drawn on the chart and Alert is generated
-
When a new downtrend is detected signal “Sell” is drawn on the chart and Alert is generated
Trending up market: How to trade it
- when price moves higher in a strong trending move all pullbacks tend to get contained by the upper thin green support line.
- in a strong uptrend the minor thin support lines is always over the thick major support lines
- in majority of cases price drops to the minor support (the thin upper green line) and makes a doji candle or a candle with along tail testing the upper support
"Buy 2" signal: the indicator can catch those shallow pullbacks for you
- Just double click the lines drawn by the indicator and you will see the input menu
- Click a check box Allow_buy_PB
- The indicator will start drawing green triangles Buy 2 and generate alerts when it detects minor pullbacks withing strong uptrends

Set email and pop-up alerts
- In order not to miss a signal produced by the indicator you can set up alerts. It will take you only ten seconds but you will have to follow that sequence of steps for each stock and each time frame.
- Step 1. Open a chart of the stock you want to set alerts for. Make sure you have the desired timeframe on your chart. Right click any area of the chart and you will get a pop up menu. Click “Add Alert”.

- Step 2. After you click “Add Alert (see the previous step) you will get a menu for alerts (see on the right).
- In that new menu click the very first window “Condition”, from the drop-down menu click the second line “Alerts(6,9,20,4)”

- Step 3. After you click “the second line “Alerts(6,9,20,4)” (see the previous step above) you will get a menu for specific alerts to choose from (see on the right).
- for each type of signal you will need to set its own alert
- “Buy Reversal Alert” – trend direction changes on two timeframes – indicated by signal “Buy” on the chart
- “Buy 2: Shallow Pullback” – indicator finds a shallow pullback when price test the upper support (the upper thin green line) – indicated by signal “Buy 2” on the chart
- “Buy 3: Deep Pullback” – indicator finds a deep pullback when price drops through the minor support and tests the major support (the lower thick green line) – indicated by signal “Buy 3” on the chart

- Step 4. After you pick one specific type of signal you would like to be alerted you need to click “Once per Bar”. If you pick that option alert will sent to you every time the desired signal is generated by the indicator

- Step 5. TradingView provides you with three different types of alerts. You can get email notifications, popup notifications or notifications in the mobile app. The best option is to activate them all ( see on the right).

- Step 6. Finally you can define specific message you will get when the signal is generated by the indicator and the alert is sent. I recommend you to always mention the symbol, the timeframe and name of the signal you want to get alerted about:
- I use the following format: “DOCU: Daily: Buy Shallow Pullback”
- click the blue button in the lower right corner of the menu “Create”
