Inspired by a script seen on TradingView, I translated and adapted this indicator.
It shows the relation of price against different period moving averages.
The arrows indicates possible retracements in a general trend direction, so they can be used as entry point.
No ground breaking math here, but I am finding very useful and some algo based on it is giving good results in demo live.

Please, could you tell me how can i to put yours colours on the indicator and how colour the zones.
Thanks and sorry for my english
AlexF, thanks for the market phase indicator; please, you could give an indication of how to set the resulting graph (color zones and line colors) in order to reproduce a visual effect similar to yours. Thanks again
Set the “phases” as histograms with different shades of green and red for above/below zero. Set the other ma values as lines.
Thanks for the post !
Have you tried it with the volume indicator, maybe it gives another good restriction /confirmation for a trading strategy?
At least I will try around with this indicator for a trendfollowing strategy.

I added the (boring) coloring coding to this indicator, see below, so the indicator will immediatly be colored when you add it,

hello,
thanks, could you post somes algos suggestions to improve, based on this indicator?
Hallo Winnie37,
Not sure about your question,
I will have investigate if I can make a new trading algo for myself based on this indicator. I am a trendfollowing trader, so I hope this indicator can contribute..
yes. “No ground breaking math here, but I am finding very useful and some algo based on it is giving good results in demo live” in description; I investigate too but not very good results for the moment…
Also interesting to know what does not work, which set up you use, saves me investigating ! Do you mind sharing this ?
i just set the proorder like this: buy when 50/100/200 phase >0 and sell when under 0, good backtest but no effective trades in demo…strange thing…Ok to share 🙂
