ZeroLag ema + adx = trueCombined LazyBears ZeroLag EMA and CapnOscars moving average ADX. Here's the result.
I figured it could be used as a trend trendtrading system,
ADX red + ema cross downards = short.
ADX green + ema cross up = long.
ADX black + ema cross = no trade
Or something along those line. A way filter out whipsaws.
This is just something I threw together in 5 min, so din't go all in tho. Haven't had time to test.
2 ADX
3 Z-EMAs
Colors/settings can be customized.
Trendtrading
Trend FilterThe indicator paints the bar colours based on the average open and average close for past N days.
if average close is above average open, the bars are coloured green, otherwise they are coloured red
It can be used as a general trend filter on weekly, daily bars. even on intraday timeframes, this would work well and give a sense of the current trend direction.
GetTrendStrategyA simple strategy is to determine the trend. Do not use it for real-time transactions. Use it as a Reaffirmation trade entry.
Moving Average Cross Alert, Multi-Timeframe (MTF) (by ChartArt)See when two moving averages cross. With the option to choose between four moving average calculations:
SMA = simple moving average
EMA = exponential moving average (default)
WMA = weighted moving average
Linear = linear regression
The moving averages can be plotted from different time-frames, like e.g. the weekly or 4 hour time-frame using HL2, HLC3 or OHLC4 as price source for the calculation. In addition there is a background color alert and arrows when the moving averages cross each other when the price also rises or falls. And the moving averages are colored depending on their trend direction (if they are trending up or down).
ZTLs Percentage-based Renko EmulatorHere is another version of my Flex Renko script. It is uses percentage-based brick sizes to draw the Renkos instead of ATR or static brick sizes. What makes the percentage-based drawing style great is that one doesn't need to adjust stops so many times like they would with a ATR based Renko. It also makes moving between tickers smooth as well as one doesn't have to adjust the brick-size for each name.
to use: By default the setting is ".001" or 10 basis points. So ".01" is 1 percent or 100 basis points and so-forth. This style is perfect for those traders who make trades on a percentage basis over a price-level basis. It's also good for percentage-based stops.
The yellow lines represent where the price needs to go to draw another Renko brick.
ZTLs Bar_TrendHere is an adaptation of TTM_Trend I coded. It's all pretty self explanatory. Aqua = buy and red = sell.
There's only one setting to tweak and it's the look-back for highest and lowest.
I have found that this indicator gives signals at almost identical areas to the TTM_Trend but tend to actually be a little more efficient (earlier buy/sell signals), although I haven't thoroughly back-tested it.
Enjoy!

Flex Renko Emulatorupdate:
As far as my algorithm design will take me this is it. So It's complete in my eyes. Here is a "working" version of something I've been looking for for a long time: "Flex" Renko Charting.
Bricks' sizes are determined by ATR and are set by simply choosing a resolution for the ATR calculation. No need to go in and choose renko granulation(resolution) AND brick size. Renko granulation is current chart resolution. Feel free to send me feedback on how to manage the reversal bricks' calculation or any other thoughts and ideas.
Replace the "close" in the main body of the renko calculation with 'high' and 'low' to get more consistent paintings across different aggregations since renkos aren't technically based off closing prices but where the price has been. Of course it's all a matter of preference:
Brick1 = high >
nz(Brick1) + BrickSize ? nz(Brick1) + BrickSize : low <
nz(Brick1) - BrickSize ?
nz(Brick1) - BrickSize
: nz(Brick1)
