Market Phases Indicator for ThinkorSwim

Greetings,

The Market Phases indicator is based off of Chuck Dukas Trend Advisor model of identifying what phase a stock is in. Whether is is bullish, bearish, accumulation, distribution etc. I have attached an image below so you can see. With this indicator, you can scan for stocks in all six phases as well as pullbacks to a fast user chosen ema if a stock is under a bullish or bearish phase. I have included a watchlist column so you can use to your liking. Hope this helps.


Please note: On the chart indicator, when you load it, uncheck the show plots for buphase, acphase, rephase, bephase, dphase, wphase. These mess up the chart sizing. If someone knows how to turn those off by default then please do so. Thank you.
