HMA Breakout Buy/Sell indicator for Scalping & Intraday

The HMA Breakout Buy/Sell indicator provides clear trend signals based on the alignment of Hull Moving Averages (HMA) to assist traders in identifying momentum shifts for scalping and intraday strategies.

Usage

The HMA Breakout indicator uses color-coded lines to signify market conditions and potential entry points. When the trend aligns for a bullish move, the moving average line turns green, signaling a Buy condition. Conversely, when the trend aligns for a bearish move, the line turns red, signaling a Sell condition. When no clear breakout condition is met, the line remains the default chart foreground color (often gray).

• Buy Signal: The line turns GREEN. This occurs when the short-term HMA crosses above the medium-term HMA while both are above the long-term HMA.
• Sell Signal: The line turns RED. This occurs when the short-term HMA crosses below the medium-term HMA while both are below the long-term HMA.
• Trailing Stop Loss: It is recommended to use a trailing stop loss to lock in profits during trending moves.

While the script can be used across various timeframes, it is optimized for the 5-minute chart.

Details

The script utilizes three Hull Moving Averages of varying lengths to filter noise and identify high-probability breakouts. The HMA is known for its ability to reduce lag while maintaining smoothness, making it superior to standard SMAs or EMAs for fast-moving markets.

The logic checks for specific tiered alignments:

• Bullish alignment: Long-term < Medium-term < Short-term.
• Bearish alignment: Long-term > Medium-term > Short-term.

Settings

• Trade Type: Allows the user to toggle between "Scalping" and "Intraday" modes. Selecting a mode automatically adjusts the HMA lengths to suit the specific trading style (shorter periods for scalping, longer periods for intraday).
