ZenTrend attempts to plot the cycles that occur as the price cycles between the top and bottom of long- and short-term price linear regression channels.
The indicator observes a fast (35-period) and a slow (100-period) linear regression channel and plots their slopes on an oscillator. When the slope of the fast channel crosses above or below the slope of the slow channel, a signal is plotted.
Here are things I look for when observing price cycles
The indicator observes a fast (35-period) and a slow (100-period) linear regression channel and plots their slopes on an oscillator. When the slope of the fast channel crosses above or below the slope of the slow channel, a signal is plotted.
- The red line is the slope of the fast channel; blue is the slope of the slow channel
- A green dot and background indicates the slope of recent price action has crossed above the slope of long-term price action.
- A red dot and background indicates the slope of recent price action has crossed below the slope of long-term price action.
- A gray dot indicates the slope of recent price action is slowing. The difference between the long- and short-term slopes is narrowing.
Here are things I look for when observing price cycles
- Where does the cross occur? Crosses high above or below the 'zero line' indicate a more extreme change in price channel slopes.
- Flat line: crosses that occur while the lines are flat often indicate chop.
- "Curve" of the line - a cross that occurs as the slope lines are starting to curve up/down indicates a sharper and more extreme change in price channel slope.

Bull/bear background color is now based on indicator slope. I'm finding this to be more accurate than basic crosses.
