What kind of trend indicator are you looking for? You can get an idea of the trend using different methods e.g. price above/below moving average, direction of zig zag swing and HL/LH/LL/HH etc..

Hi @iq200 , It could really be based on any of the standard trend indicators. I was just looking for a way to confirm trend on three time frames with a quick glance as opposed to having three charts up and having to scan each one.

So what I meant is that you use say price/9/20/50/100/200 ema and see that they are in that order for an uptrend and in the reverse order for a downtrend. I have a band indicator that displays bands in a pane if u want it

You have to search. Search for PriceActionSwing and Supertrend to find some trend indicators. MAs you should already have on your system and in the files area of this site.
