Curved Trend Channels (Zeiierman)█ Overview
Curved Trend Channels (Zeiierman) is a next-generation trend visualization tool engineered to adapt dynamically to both linear and non-linear market behavior. It introduces a novel curvature-based channeling system that grows over time during trending conditions, mirroring the natural acceleration of price trends, while simultaneously leveraging adaptive range filtering and dual-layer candle trend logic.
This tool is ideal for traders seeking smooth yet reactive dynamic channels that evolve with market structure. Whether used in curved mode or traditional slope mode, it provides exceptional clarity on trend transitions, volatility compression, and breakout development.
█ How It Works
⚪ Adaptive Range Filter Foundation
The core of the system is a volatility-based range filter that determines the underlying structure of the bands:
Pre-Smoothing of High/Low Data – Highs and lows are smoothed using a selectable moving average (SMA, EMA, HMA, KAMA, etc.) before calculating the volatility range.
Volatility Envelope – The range is scaled using a fixed factor (2.618) and further adjusted by a Band Multiplier to form the primary envelope around price.
Smoothed Volatility Curve – Final bands are stabilized using a long lookback, ensuring clean visual structure and trend clarity.
⚪ Curved Channel Logic
In Curved Mode, the trend channel grows over time when the trend direction remains unchanged:
Base Step Size (× ATR) – Sets the minimum unit of slope change.
Growth per Bar (× ATR) – Defines the acceleration rate of the channel slope with time.
Trend Persistence Recognition – The longer a trend persists, the more pronounced the slope becomes, mimicking real market accelerations.
This dynamic, time-dependent logic enables the channel to "curve" upward or downward, tracking long-standing trends with increasing confidence.
⚪ Trend Slope
As an alternative to curved logic, traders can activate a regular Trend slope using:
Slope Length – Determines how quickly the trend line adapts to price shifts.
Multiplicative Factor – Amplifies the sensitivity of the slope, useful in fast-moving markets or lower timeframes.
⚪ Candle Trend Confirmation
A robust second-layer trend detection method, the Candle Trend System evaluates directional pressure by analyzing smoothed price action:
Multi-tier Smoothing – Trend lines are derived from short-, medium-, and long-term candle movement.
█ How to Use
⚪ Trend Identification
When the Trend Line direction and Candle Colors are in agreement, this indicates strong, persistent directional conviction. Use these moments to enter with trend confirmation and manage risk more confidently.
⚪ Retest
During ongoing trends, the price will often pull back into the dynamic channel. Look for:
Support/resistance interactions at the upper or lower bands.
█ Settings
Scaled Volatility Length – Controls the historical depth used to stabilize the volatility bands.
Smoothing Type – Choose from HMA, KAMA, VIDYA, FRAMA, Super Smoother, etc. to match your asset and trading style.
Volatility MA Length – Smoothing length for the calculated range; shorter = more reactive.
High/Low Smoother Length – Additional smoothing to reduce noise from spikes or false pivots.
Band Multiplier – Widens or tightens the band range based on personal preference.
Enable Curved Channel – Toggle between curved or regular trend slope behavior.
Base Step (× ATR) – The starting point for curved slope progression.
Growth per Bar (× ATR) – How much the slope accelerates per bar during a sustained trend.
Slope – Reactivity of the standard trend line to price movements.
Multiplicative Factor – Sensitivity adjustment for HyperTrend slope.
Candle Trend Length – Lookback period for trend determination from candle structure.
