twisted SMA strategy [4h]

Script from: TradingViewSwingPrice actionTrend following

The Twisted SMA Strategy [4h] employs three SMA indicators (4, 9, 18) for trend direction, colored candles for crosses (blue for bullish, maroon for bearish), and the SMA 100 to determine the main trend. Long positions integrate Kaufman's Adaptive Moving Average, with exit signals prompted by opposing SMA crossovers. Optimized for 4h+ timeframes, this approach is especially powerful for long-term uptrends in assets like Apple or Tesla.
