Filter Cross

1. Indicator Name
Filter Cross Indicator
2. One-line Introduction
A multi-filtered crossover strategy that enhances classic moving average signals with trend, volatility, volume, and momentum confirmation.
3. General Overview
The Filter Cross indicator builds upon the traditional golden/dead cross concept by incorporating additional market filters to evaluate the quality of each signal. It uses two key moving averages (50-period and 200-period SMA) to identify crossovers, while adding four advanced metrics:


Linear regression trend ordering,


ATR-based volatility positioning,


Volume pressure,


Price positioning relative to fast MA.


These components are individually scored and averaged to calculate a Confidence %, which is displayed on the chart alongside each crossover signal. Visual cues such as dynamic color changes reflect the current trend direction and strength, making it intuitive for both novice and experienced traders.
The indicator is especially effective in swing trading and trend-following strategies, where false signals can be filtered out through the additional logic.
Security measures are applied to ensure that the core logic remains protected, making it safe for proprietary use.
4. Key Advantages
✅ Multi-factor Signal Validation
Evaluates each signal using four key market filters to improve reliability over classic crossovers.
📉 Confidence Score Display
Each signal is accompanied by a Confidence % label to help traders assess entry/exit quality.
🎨 Dynamic Color Feedback
Automatically adjusts chart color based on trend intensity and direction, aiding visual clarity.
🔍 Linear Regression Trend Logic
Uses pairwise comparison of regression data to quantify trend alignment across lookback periods.
📈 Reduced False Signals
Minimizes noise and weak signals during sideways markets using adaptive thresholds.


📘 Indicator User Guide
📌 Basic Concept


Filter Cross enhances moving average crossover signals using four additional market-based filters.


These include trend alignment, volatility range, volume strength, and price momentum.


Final signals are graded with a Confidence % score, showing how favorable the conditions are for action.


⚙️ Settings Explained


Fast MA Length: Short-term moving average period (default: 50)


Slow MA Length: Long-term moving average period (default: 200)


Linear Regression Length: Period used to assess price trend alignment


Trend Lookback / Threshold: Sensitivity controls for trend scoring


Volume Lookback / ATR Length: Defines volatility and volume filters


Bull/Bear Color: Customize visual colors for bullish and bearish signals


📈 Buy Timing Example


Golden Cross occurs (50 MA crosses above 200 MA)


Confidence % is above 70%


Trend color turns green, volume is rising, price above fast MA → Strong entry signal


📉 Sell Timing Example


Dead Cross occurs (50 MA crosses below 200 MA)


Confidence % above 60% indicates a reliable bearish setup


Regression trend down, color turns red → Valid exit or short opportunity


🧪 Recommended Use Cases


Combine with RSI or MACD for timing confirmation in swing trades


Use Confidence % to filter out weak crossover signals during sideways trends


Effective in medium-to-long term trading with volatile assets


🔒 Precautions


Confidence % reflects current conditions—not future prediction—use with discretion


May produce delayed signals in ranging markets; test before real application


Best results achieved when combined with other indicators or price action context


Always optimize parameters based on the specific market or asset being traded
