Strategy overview

A moving average smooths price into a single line, and that is normally where a strategy page like this one starts — except here the average never appears on the chart as a named tool. In this entry it surfaces one level down: the Momentum-Based ZigZag with QQE is described as driving its pivot detection from a momentum reading, and a moving average is listed as one of the interchangeable candidates for that job alongside MACD and QQE itself. The average is a component choice inside another indicator's engine rather than a signal line you cross, which is a very different role from the one it plays in most moving-average setups.

The source is Trendline Project's "5 Must-Have New TradingView Indicators for 2025 + Strategies for Each!", and the format explains the rest of the lineup. It is an annual roundup, not a single-setup walkthrough: the chapter rhythm alternates strictly between introducing an indicator and then giving it its own strategy segment, roughly half a minute to a minute apiece. That budget shapes what the five tools have in common — Trend Magic derives a trend flip from CCI with ATR-scaled thresholds, Volume Profile / Fixed Range maps where volume actually transacted across a chosen span, Range Box brackets the high and low of a user-chosen time window, and Volatility Gaussian Bands is the only other member of the stack that smooths at all, and it does so through a filter from a different mathematical family than a simple average.

A few things are worth stating plainly. The filed chapter list runs through the first three indicators only, so the segments for Range Box and the Gaussian Bands are not represented in it. Two horizons are on file, intraday and swing, which fits a roundup covering five different tools rather than one setup with a defined holding period. No instrument, historical window or dataset is stated anywhere; "Must-Have" and the 2025 framing are the title's own billing; and no mechanical rules were decoded from this video, so what this page can offer is the concept and the video's structure rather than a rule set.

Frequently asked questions

Is the moving average the main indicator in this strategy?

No. In the source video the moving average is not one of the five headline tools — it comes up as one of the possible momentum inputs the Momentum-Based ZigZag can use to place its pivots, alongside MACD and QQE. The rest of the stack is built on other families entirely: a CCI/ATR trend flip, a volume-distribution map, a time-window range and a Gaussian filter.

What kind of video is this decoded from?

An indicator roundup rather than a single-strategy tutorial. Trendline Project presents five TradingView indicators billed as must-haves for 2025 and pairs each one with its own short strategy segment, so the running order alternates between an indicator introduction and the setup built on it.

How is a momentum-based ZigZag different from a standard one?

A conventional ZigZag marks swing highs and lows purely from price movement above a threshold. A momentum-based version brings a second input into the pivot decision — a momentum reading such as QQE, MACD or a moving average — so the pivots reflect the state of momentum at the turn, not just the size of the move.

How should I approach testing a five-indicator stack like this?

Evaluate the components separately before combining them, since a roundup gives each tool only a short segment and does not establish how they interact. Strategy Decoder catalogs strategies presented in video sources so you can see what each one is built on and take it to TradingView for your own testing.
