ToolTack Trend Catcher — Entry, TPs & SL
Overview
Trend Catcher generating a full trade plan on a single EMA 9/21 cross — blue entry line, red ATR stop, and five green take-profit targets, with a live dual-score dashboard on the left of the chart. ToolTack Trend Catcher is an all-in-one signal indicator for TradingView. It generates trade signals automatically when the 9-period EMA crosses the 21-period EMA. A bullish cross plots a BUY label below the candle, and a bearish cross plots a SELL label above it. The moment a signal fires, the indicator builds a complete trade plan on the chart. A blue line marks the entry price at the bar that triggered the signal. A red line marks the stop-loss, calculated from the current ATR(14) value and a user-defined risk multiplier. Five green lines mark the take-profit levels at 1R, 2R, 3R, 4R, and 5R, where R is the same ATR distance used for the stop. Each level shows its exact price as a label on the right side of the chart. When a take-profit level is reached, its price label turns turquoise and a fire icon appears next to the value. When the stop-loss is breached, the SL label adds a red stop icon and the line colour shifts to orange. A bias engine runs alongside the signals to grade overall market conditions in real time. Seven independent checks feed a Bull Score and a Bear Score from zero to one hundred percent. The checks include price versus VWAP, RSI above or below fifty, MACD direction, EMA 9 versus EMA 21, ADX strength with EMA position, volume against its twenty-bar average, and 5-minute RSI for higher-timeframe context. The dashboard converts each score into a horizontal gauge so the strength of bull or bear pressure is visible at a glance. The same dashboard then prints the overall market bias as STRONG BULL, MILD BULL, MILD BEAR, or STRONG BEAR. Below the bias row, the dashboard lists every indicator with its raw value and a green or red signal verdict. It also tracks live trade status — current position direction, open P&L percentage, the highest take-profit reached, stop-loss status, and how many bars the trade has been active. A performance section at the bottom of the dashboard tracks a running win rate based on whether each signal hit TP1 before the stop was breached. A 200-period EMA can be toggled on for higher-timeframe trend context, with the dashboard showing whether price is above or below it and by what percent. Session high and low levels are also plotted as dotted markers to keep the intraday range in view. A retest detector watches for price pulling back to the 9-EMA after a signal and flags it with an orange “R” diamond and an orange candle highlight. Trend Catcher works on every asset class supported by TradingView. You can use it on forex pairs, stocks, ETFs, crypto, indices, futures, and commodities. It also works on every timeframe, from one-minute charts up to weekly charts. Scalpers use it on 1-minute and 5-minute charts to take fast EMA-cross signals with tight ATR stops. Day traders apply it on 5-minute to 1-hour charts and use TP1 and TP2 for quick partials, then trail toward TP3 and beyond. Swing traders use it on 1-hour to daily charts and aim for TP3, TP4, or TP5 with the wider risk units. Position traders use it on daily charts to keep position-sized trades inside the displayed risk frame. The most common way to trade with Trend Catcher is to wait for a BUY or SELL label, then check the dashboard. If the bias confirms the signal direction with a strong score, you take the trade at the entry line. If the bias contradicts the signal, you skip the trade and wait for the next one. You then scale out at each take-profit and leave a runner toward TP5. The stop-loss can be left at the original ATR level or trailed using the 9-EMA on a retest. Trend Catcher includes a full alert suite built directly into the indicator. Separate alerts fire on BUY signals, SELL signals, every individual TP hit (TP1 through TP5), and any stop-loss breach. You can receive these alerts as popups, emails, mobile push notifications, SMS, or webhooks. Webhook alerts can connect Trend Catcher to trading bots, Discord, Telegram, or third-party automation services. The dashboard, label sizes, EMA ribbon opacity, ATR multiplier, and label offset are all user-configurable from a single settings panel. Visual elements such as the 200-EMA, session high/low markers, and individual alerts can be toggled on or off without changing any code. Trend Catcher is a complete trade-planning toolkit, not a fully automated system. Signals can still fail in choppy or low-volume conditions, and ATR-based stops widen during high volatility. For best results, always confirm signals against the dual-score bias, respect the displayed stop-loss, and combine the indicator with proper position sizing and risk management.
Who It's For
Trend Catcher is designed for active scalpers, day traders, and swing traders across forex, stocks, crypto, indices, futures, and commodities who want a full trade plan generated for them on every signal. It suits intermediate traders who have outgrown a simple trend filter and need entry, stop, and multiple profit targets plotted automatically, and advanced traders who want a live dashboard scoring market bias across seven independent confirmations. It works equally well for manual execution and as a signal source for webhook-driven bot workflows.
Why It's Useful
Trend Catcher removes the three biggest reasons traders mismanage trades — vague entries, undefined stops, and no plan for taking profit. Instead of eyeballing where to enter, where to risk, and when to take money off the table, the indicator plots every level the moment the signal fires, sized by current volatility. The dual-score dashboard then tells the trader whether the broader market actually supports the signal, filtering out low-quality crosses in choppy conditions. Live tracking of P&L, best TP reached, stop status, and a rolling win rate replaces guesswork with measurable feedback. The full alert coverage — on signals, every TP, and stop-loss events — means traders no longer have to babysit the chart to manage a position, freeing time and reducing emotional decisions during fast-moving sessions.
