Sadukey_trend_v8

314
Overview
Sadukey Trend v8 is a cloud-style trend indicator, similar in look to an Ichimoku cloud. Two smoothed lines form a colored cloud that shows trend direction, strength and weakness at a glance. It also detects sideways phases (consolidations) and divergences.

Cloud colors
• Dark blue: strong uptrend (the distance is widening)
• Light blue: weak uptrend (the distance is shrinking)
• Red: strong downtrend
• Light red: weak downtrend
• Gray: consolidation / sideways phase

Consolidation detection
The gray zone is detected by three rules, each of which can be switched on or off:
1. Price inside the cloud: the closing price lies between the two lines.
2. Extremely thin cloud (squeeze): the line distance is smaller than an adjustable fraction of the ATR, so the rule adapts to any asset and timeframe.
3. Convergence early warning (new in v8): the cloud has been narrowing for several consecutive bars and is approaching the squeeze range. This flags a starting sideways phase earlier, instead of waiting until it is fully formed.

Signals
• BUY / SELL: on a line cross, or on a breakout from the gray consolidation zone
• CONS: a diamond above the candle when the market enters a consolidation
• Triangles (warnings): the trend is losing strength
• Bull Div / Bear Div: bullish and bearish divergence between price and the indicator All signals are generated after bar close.

Settings
• Consolidation: rules individually switchable, maximum cloud thickness as an ATR factor
• Early warning: number of narrowing bars and threshold multiplier (lower values react faster but are more prone to false signals)
• Display: colors, line thickness and fill transparency are fully adjustable
• Divergences: pivot bars left and right, minimum and maximum distance
• Visibility: signals and warnings can be shown or hidden separately

Alerts
Alert conditions are available for BUY, SELL and Consolidation. They trigger once per bar close.

Usage notes
• Divergence labels are confirmed only after the configured number of right-side pivot bars has passed, and are then drawn retroactively on the pivot bar. They are delayed and not meant for real-time entries.
• The indicator works on all timeframes and markets, but the default values should be adjusted per asset.
• In sideways markets, cross signals can occur more often. The gray zone helps to identify such phases.
