The "Linear Regression Trend Channel" is a technical indicator designed to illustrate price trends and their volatility using linear regression. This indicator calculates the main linear regression line based on the user-defined period length and computes the standard deviation to form a trend channel.
Key Features:
- Linear Regression Calculation: Computes the linear regression line based on the selected price data source and the defined period length.
- Slope and Intercept Calculation: Calculates the slope and intercept of the linear regression line using the calcSlopeIntercept function.
- Deviation Channels: Adds standard deviation channels to the linear regression line to highlight potential support and resistance areas.
Settings
- Linear Regression Length: Specifies the length of the period for the linear regression calculation (default: 100).
- Linear Regression Source: Defines the data source for the linear regression calculation, such as close price, open price, etc. (default: close).
- Linear Regression Color: Sets the color of the linear regression line (default: gray).
- Show Price Labels: Option to display price labels on the horizontal lines (default: true).
How to Use
- Set the Linear Regression Length to define the period for regression calculation.
- Choose the Linear Regression Source to specify the price data (e.g., close, open).
- Enable or disable Show Price Labels based on whether you want to see price labels on the horizontal lines.
This Indicator helps identify dynamic support and resistance levels and potential market turning points.
