Kagi Trend Filter Indicator for TradingView

The Kagi Trend Filter is a custom TradingView indicator available in the Pine Script community library. It applies the logic of Kagi charting to a standard price chart, helping traders identify the prevailing trend direction while filtering out minor price fluctuations and market noise.

Kagi charts are a Japanese charting technique that ignore time and only plot price movements when they exceed a defined reversal amount. By translating this concept into an overlay or signal-based indicator, the Kagi Trend Filter gives traders a cleaner read on whether price is in an uptrend or downtrend without the clutter of tick-by-tick volatility.

This type of trend filter can be used alongside other technical analysis tools such as moving averages, momentum oscillators, or volume indicators to confirm trade entries and exits. It is particularly useful for traders who want to avoid false signals during choppy or sideways market conditions.

The script is published publicly on TradingView and can be accessed through the Pine Script indicator library. Traders can add it to any chart and adjust the reversal sensitivity parameter to suit different assets, timeframes, and volatility profiles.
