Traders typically look for the alignment of the three averages (Fast, Medium, and Slow) to confirm a trending environment.

Details

The script calculates three Simple Moving Averages (SMA) based on the closing price. While many traders use standard 50 or 200-period averages, this tool utilizes 100, 300, and 600 periods to filter out short-term market noise and focus on institutional-grade price cycles. The calculation follows the standard SMA formula, where the sum of the prices over the specified period is divided by that period. The visual output is color-coded to allow for immediate recognition of price proximity to the various trend baselines.
