Two Poles Trend Finder MTF [BigBeluga]

🔵 OVERVIEW
Two Poles Trend Finder MTF [BigBeluga] is a refined trend-following overlay that blends a two-pole Gaussian filter with a multi-timeframe dashboard. It provides a smooth view of price dynamics along with a clear summary of trend directions across multiple timeframes—perfect for traders seeking alignment between short and long-term momentum.

🔵 CONCEPTS

Two-Pole Filter: A smoothing algorithm that responds faster than traditional moving averages but avoids the noise of short-term fluctuations.

Pine Script®
var float f = na var float f_prev1 = na var float f_prev2 = na // Apply two-pole Gaussian filter if bar_index >= 2 f := math.pow(alpha, 2) * source + 2 * (1 - alpha) * f_prev1 - math.pow(1 - alpha, 2) * f_prev2 else f := source // Warm-up for first bars // Shift state f_prev2 := f_prev1 f_prev1 := f
Trend Detection Logic: Trend direction is determined by comparing the current filtered value with its value n bars ago (shifted comparison).
MTF Alignment Dashboard: Trends from 5 configurable timeframes are monitored and visualized as colored boxes:
• Green = Uptrend
• Magenta = Downtrend
Summary Arrow: An average trend score from all timeframes is used to plot an overall arrow next to the asset name.

🔵 FEATURES

Two-Pole Gaussian Filter offers ultra-smooth trend curves while maintaining responsiveness.
Multi-Timeframe Trend Detection:
• Default: 1H, 2H, 4H, 12H, 1D (fully customizable)
• Each timeframe is assessed independently using the same trend logic.

Dynamic Summary Arrow shows overall market bias (🢁 / 🢃) based on majority of uptrends/downtrends.

🔵 HOW TO USE
