01 / WHAT IT DOES

Choose what to observe, not just more lines.

01

Your choice of averages

Select EMA, SMA, WMA or RMA and set fast, medium and slow periods. Read their order, slope and the observation zone around the fast average.

02

Separate contact from recovery

WATCH marks qualifying contact with the fast-average zone in an aligned trend. RECOVERY requires subsequent recovery conditions; neither is simply an MA crossover.

03

Keep the information you need

Choose higher-timeframe and volume filters, then adjust the panel and label count. Narrower conditions can reduce or eliminate labels.

Illustrations of features, not actual settings screens.

How it works
  • Choose the average type and observation zone for your chart.
  • Add higher-timeframe and volume conditions to narrow observations. Fewer or no markers may appear when conditions are not met.
  • Switch between compact and detailed readings; adjust panel position, size and colors.
02 / ON YOUR CHART

Three details to read on your chart

Actual PJP 4H screenshots: averages, observation labels and the reading panel.

01 / Averages and observation zone

Averages and observation zone

The fast, medium and slow averages appear together. ATR, a measure of recent price range, sets the width of the fast-average zone.

02 / WATCH → RECOVERY

WATCH → RECOVERY

WATCH starts an observation. RECOVERY requires the subsequent conditions within the configured lifetime. Neither places an order.

03 / Current state at a glance

Current state at a glance

Flow shows the trend state; Distance measures the close from the fast average in ATR units. MIXED means the averages do not form an aligned trend.

Observations use closed candles. The higher-timeframe filter uses the previous completed candle, so confirmation is delayed.

03 / SETTINGS · COMPARE

Same chart. What changes with confirmation filters?

Both screenshots use PJP 4H and EMA 20/60/120. Switch to the view with daily-trend and volume confirmation enabled.

A WATCH does not guarantee a RECOVERY.

WATCH

WATCH marks a candle touching the zone around the fast average while the trend is aligned. It is not an MA crossover marker.

RECOVERY

After WATCH, upward RECOVERY requires a bullish candle to close above the zone and the previous high. Downward RECOVERY requires a bearish candle to close below the zone and the previous low.

Which labels do the filters screen?

Higher-timeframe trend agreement: When enabled, WATCH and RECOVERY require matching chart and higher-timeframe trends. Volume relative to its average: When enabled, WATCH and RECOVERY require candle volume at least equal to average volume × the chosen multiplier.

UP and DOWN indicate direction. Labels appear on closed candles; they are not buy or sell orders.

How it works
  • Trend uses fast/medium/slow average ordering and medium/slow slopes. ATR, a measure of recent price range, sets the fast-average zone width.
  • WATCH requires the close to remain on the trend side of the medium average without excessive distance from the fast average. A new zone touch and the configured cooldown are also required.
  • RECOVERY is checked from the candle after WATCH, within the chosen lifetime. A trend change, a close across the medium average or excessive extension cancels the watch.
  • EXTENDED separately marks a close reaching the chosen ATR distance from the fast average. Its labels are off by default and are not screened by these two filters.

06 / FAQ

Before you buy

Use it on your private charts without publishing the source.

Do I need coding experience?

For basic use, paste the supplied complete code into a new Pine Editor script, save and add it to your chart. Change options in Settings. Editing the calculation logic requires Pine Script knowledge.

Does a missing label mean an error?

No. Trend, contact, cooldown and recovery conditions must qualify. Optional filters narrow the conditions; missing volume blocks new WATCH/RECOVERY observations when volume confirmation is enabled.

Can I customize lines and panels?

Settings expose MA types and periods, directions, zone width, recent label count and panel position, size and detail. Changing calculation logic requires Pine Script knowledge.

Do I need TradingView?

Yes. Install with Pine Editor in your TradingView account. TradingView plans and market-data fees are not included.

Can I edit or share the code?

You can edit it for personal use. Sharing, redistribution and resale rights are not included.

Are investment returns guaranteed?

No. This is a chart-analysis tool, not a guarantee of trading results or returns.

How is this different from built-in MAs?

MA Ribbon already displays multiple averages in one indicator. V2 combines fast-average WATCH/RECOVERY records, optional trend/volume filters, a reading panel and source code for personal editing.

Do filters delay confirmation?

Yes. Observations use closed candles; the higher-timeframe filter uses its previous completed candle. Enabling conditions can reduce or remove labels, not establish better returns.
