Tripwire Pro+

Tripwire – Trail-Based Trend Direction Indicator

OVERVIEW
Tripwire is a powerful, volatility-adaptive trailing indicator designed to keep traders on the right side of momentum while offering signals and alerts based on the users settings and filters.

CONCEPT & INSPIRATION
This indicator is directly inspired from the Zombie9Trail by Frosty (creator of the Zombie Pack and TickHunter for NinjaTrader).
When all filters are turned off, Tripwire replicates the core behavior of Zombie9Trail — delivering the same razor-sharp trailing logic.
Most of Frosty's testing has been done from the 1 minute time frame, while I have personally found for my style of trading the 5 minute time frame works better for me.

WHAT THIS VERSION ADDS — TradingView Enhancements
• Optional multi-layer trend filters (21, 34, 170 EMA) to separate high-probability pullbacks from actual trend changes
• Clean Buy/Sell/Pullback signal labels with alert conditions
• Real-time dashboard showing current trail value, trend state, and filter status
• Fully customizable ATR length, multiplier, source, and visual styling
• All values exported as plots — perfect for CSV download and strategy development

HOW TO USE

Filters ON (recommended for trend-following) → Take signals in the direction of the higher-timeframe trend. Great for staying in strong moves and avoiding fake outs.
Filters OFF (pure Zombie9Trail mode) → Possibly catch early reversals and ride new trends


CREDIT & RESPECT
Core trailing methodology and original genius: Frosty — creator of Zombie9Trail / Zombie Pack / TickHunter (NinjaTrader).
This TradingView adaptation was built in direct homage to his NinjaTrader work and with his encouragement. Everything beyond the base trailing logic (filters, dashboard, alerts, exportable plots, visual polish) is original.
