TMA OVERLAY TRADINGVIEW STRATEGY

TMA OVERLAY TRADINGVIEW STRATEGY

In this concise article, I explore the potential utility of the TMA Bands Overlay, a custom indicator on the TradingView platform. The interpretation I present leans towards trend following, but it can also be adapted for trend-reversal trading strategies. I specifically delve into how this indicator can be employed to generate signals in alignment with the prevailing trend.From a non-algorithmic graphical perspective, I examine the combination of two types of TMA (Trimmed Mean Average). The trend is discerned through the interaction of two moving averages of the TMAs. When the gray line surpasses the black line, indicating an upward trend, only bullish signals are considered. Conversely, when the gray line is below the black one, only bearish signals are taken into account.Buy and sell signals displayed on the chart are a product of the TMA Overlay.
