All strategies require Trend, Momentum, and Cycle scripts.
This study strives to provide all the essentials in one indicator.

It includes studies such as TTM Trend, Super Trend, Frema, TMO, TOP, DMI , BOP, Slim Ribbon, ADX as Trending/Non-Trending, Super Trend w/CCI and ATR combo and a tri-fecta of CCI + TTM squeeze + TTM trend Combo with entry signals on LONG/SHORT/HOLD.

Inspired by the work of the community here, this is the continuation of the CSA studies series.

The studies integrates and unifies a number of community studies and provides signals allowing the construction of trading strategies and the development of trading plans. It's community driven initiative.

#Here is how I envision the paintbar working:
#When the supertrend indicator is long that would equal +1, when its short -1.
#When the TMO is green that would equal +1. when its red its -1.
#When the TOP Cycle Trader is above zero that would equal +1, when its below zero -1.
#When all 3 indicators are equal to +1 making +3 total the price bars would paint #green.
#When all 3 indicators are equal to -1 making -3 total the price bars would paint red.
#If the combination of all 3 indicators equals anything else, the price bars would #paint gray meaning all 3 indicators were not in agreement.

@diazlaz I missed something. Which study had all of the studies in a paintbar scheme along the bottom? Thanks
btw, I'm just blown away! What is the general time frame that someone would use this with. @BenTen is a day trader and I'm a stock investor with Daily and weekly charts?
 
Hi @markos, this study can be used across all timeframes. I tend to trade in the 1M/5M day trade/scalp, 1H/4H for swing/intermediate and 1D/WK timeframes as position. re: paintbar it has the ADX, trend bar painted at the bottom to help identify trending and non-trending environments. depending on the trading strategy you can apply the trend bar to keep you out of sideways market.
 
Is this the best study there is? Would appreciate a concise explanation of what each study within this combined study does and how to apply it for trading.

What do the labels at the top mean, are they just the labels for the studies or do they change and give trade signals?

Does this indicator "repaint"?

This does not work on tick charts, right?

For this to work, you must switch the timeframe in the indicator itself to match the chart, correct?

Also, if we all start using this, will it lose its validity/usefulness/edge?

They are the signals for the studies you have as a yes on input.

Does this indicator "repaint"?
HAMTF will re-paint because the signal engine for it is the higher time frame.

This does not work on tick charts, right?
Yes it will work on tick chars if you remove HAMTF from the code. That is what I did for my tick charts

For this to work, you must switch the timeframe in the indicator itself to match the chart, correct?
No, the time-frame input is for HAMTF and should be a higher time-frame than the chart being used.

Also, if we all start using this, will it lose its validity/usefulness/edge?
No because there are 100's of combinations for this study/strategy. Many will add to and change in other ways to match their style which will multiply those combinations.

Thanks! Can I get a link to the single HAMFT indicator? I'm trying to figure out what it is. Is it a combination of several studies?

@mc01439 Really? If I'm using a 30m chart or 15m chart, what setting should I put the time-frame input for the HAMFT?

How do I use this? Is this an actual scan to be used on the SCAN tab? Or is it a study? I pasted it as a study. Must it be used on a chart?

**Also, would be great if someone could briefly explain all studies/indicators added onto this monster. That way noobs don't need to read 30+ pages + How to setup / how should it look like. I attached a screenshot of what this study looks like when I set it up.

Should it look like this? Discounting the price levels, volume profile, and emas/smas, etc -

Capture.jpg


*Edit: Also, I disabled HAMFTF put it to "NO" and still not working on my tick charts.

@anycolour Thanks to @diazlaz, the changelog is clean and easy to read. If you look at it, you will know which indicators are included. I would recommend checking out those indicators. They have their own individual thread that goes over their features).
 
Thank you BenTen. If I read those individual threads, will I learn what the coloring for all these labels mean?

Capture.jpg


Please help. Really want to use this. Maybe I'm just retarded. Need help figuring it out. Please look at my screenshot:

What am I looking at?

1. To me it just looks like Heikin Ashi with supertrend indicator?

2. A bunch of labels at the top that I don't know what to do with. Are they actually for something? It seems they turn red and green. Do they? If so, do you look for confluence in all? E.g., more labels red than green = go short? More green labels than red labels = go long?

3. What is the big yellow and grey line at the bottom? How do you use it?

Capture.jpg


I haven't been around here long to know what a bunch of these indicators mean. Or are they even indicators? In the changelog I see this, let me try to decipher what they are - in order that I can see - those with question marks & bold I'm lost. Those without I think I know...
ha = heikin ashi
hamtf = heikin ashi with multi time frame
ttm
super trend
super trend heiken ashi
frema?
tmo
slim?
top?
dmi?
bop?
supertrend cciatr?
ccittm?
natr?
 
Last edited by a moderator:
@anycolour Not used this study as way too convoluted for my simple mind. By looking at the code the labels will turn red or green or gray depending on the up , down or neutral state of the indicator.
frema = Ehler's Forward Reverse EMA
tmo = True Momentum Oscillator
slim? = Slim ribbon
top? = Top Ultimate Breakout Indicator.
dmi? = Directional Momentum index
bop? = Ballance of power
supertrend cciatr? = combo study of Supertrend, CCi and Atr
ccittm? = combined Commodity Channel Index and Trend momentum
natr? = Some sort of Average true range
 
There literally are thousands of indicators out there. While many of the indicators being discussed may look "impressive", it is always important to have a good understanding as to the underlying concept/design//premise of such indicators. I certainly can understand why many traders may be curious and feel "compelled" to explore deploying this in their trading repertoire.

It might be helpful to read the following post I made regarding classification/categorization of indicators, based on comments made by Mobius who as many may be aware of is a well respected coder, developer, programmer, mentor, etc in the ThinkScript community

https://usethinkscript.com/threads/classification-categorization-of-indicators.1112/#post-9815
At the end of the day the only way anyone can understand this huge gob of studies is to read and understand the underlying code structure. Personally I like to keep things simple and only use indicators that I understand very well.

All the best folks

Click to expand...

I think what tomsk is simply trying to say is - that often times simple indicators are the best. I also do not understand much of the code in many indicators as well. I'm able to make simple changes to the code for my needs. Any complex coding and I'm lost. A perefect example is the RSI Laguerre. Even with the writeups, I still really don't understand how that indicator works. Also, the majority of codes are lagging and price is the ultimate indicator.

Mobius has written thousands of indicators uses only a couple indicators with the main one being Pivots. Don Kaufman at Theo uses no indicators other than TICK and expected move.
