TD Sequential TradingView scripts: how to find and read them

On TradingView, TD Sequential comes from scripts: DeMARK’s own paid DeMARK 9-13 and free or paid scripts from independent authors. You open the Indicators dialog, search for it, and read the script’s description to learn which rules it uses. Scripts count slightly differently, so two charts can disagree about the same bars.

This page is a neutral guide to finding TD Sequential on TradingView, reading what a script does, and knowing what alerts there can and cannot do. TradingView facts come from its public pages, read on 28 October 2026 and listed with dates at the end. TradingView changes often, so check the pages yourself. For the method itself, see what TD Sequential is.

Moolish is not affiliated with, endorsed by or sponsored by Tom DeMark or DeMARK Analytics, or by TradingView. TD Sequential, TDST and TD Perfected Setup are terms from DeMARK’s method. Moolish’s own implementation of the counts is called Sequencer 9-13.

How to find TD Sequential on TradingView

1. Open a chart and click the indicators button on the top toolbar. TradingView’s help calls the window “Indicators, metrics, and strategies”.
2. Search for “TD Sequential” or “DeMARK”.
3. Look through the community scripts in the results. TradingView labels published scripts open-source, protected or invite-only, so the label tells you whether the author has shared the code.
4. Open the script’s page and read the description before adding it. Look for how it counts the setup, the countdown and perfection.
5. Add it to the chart and compare a few completed 9s with the rules in the description.

Skipping the description is the usual reason a chart looks “wrong” later.

What kinds of scripts exist

The last row shows why reading descriptions matters. A script that calls the second phase a “Bonus Phase” uses different words from the method’s own countdown. That does not make it wrong, but you cannot assume it follows the rules in the countdown explainer.

Why two scripts show different counts

Each script is its author’s reading of the method, and public descriptions leave room. These are the usual places two scripts diverge.

• The price flip. Some scripts wait for a flip before bar 1, some start counting at the first qualifying close.
• Strict or equal. Some require a close strictly beyond the reference bar, some accept an equal value.
• Perfection. The bar 8 or 9 test has variants, covered in the perfected setup explainer.
• The 13-versus-8 test. Whether a 13 must also pass a comparison with countdown bar 8 changes which 13s are shown.
• Combo mixed in. DeMARK 9-13 covers both Sequential and Combo countdowns. The Combo comparison explains how they differ.
• Bar boundaries. A daily bar can end at a different hour on a different feed, so a count can be one bar off.
• Levels. How TDST lines are anchored and qualified varies, see TDST explained.

When counts disagree, find out which of these differs before you decide which chart to trust.

Alerts and limits on TradingView

An indicator draws the count on the chart you have open. Whether it can alert you is a separate question.

• Alerts can use indicator plots. TradingView says alerts can be created on data series, indicator plots, strategy orders and drawing objects. Alerts on studies depend on the interval, and changing an indicator’s settings after you create the alert leaves the alert on the old settings.
• The script matters. What you can alert on depends on what the script exposes. The DeMARK 9-13 page does not mention alerts.
• Plans cap active alerts. The pricing page lists active price alerts of 3 on the free Basic plan, then 20, 100, 400 and 1,000 on the paid plans. Active technical alerts, the kind on indicators, are listed from the first paid plan up at 20, 100, 400 and 1,000, with no number shown for Basic. Check the current page before you plan around these.

Watching many markets for one condition through alerts means creating and managing many alerts inside those caps.

Where a scanner fits

A TradingView script is a good tool for reading one chart: you can see every count, adjust settings and, if the code is open, read it. It is a poor fit for the question “which markets completed a 9 on the last closed bar?”, because that needs the same check on every market.

That is the job of a scanner. Moolish scans 1,600+ crypto markets for TD Sequential counts on ten timeframes from 15M to 3M, detects each one on the closed bar and can send a Telegram alert. It is not a charting platform, and TradingView is the stronger place to draw and write scripts. The free vs paid screener comparison lays out the options, and the Moolish vs TradingView alerts page compares alerts.

To use the scanner, sign up for the free 7-day trial (no credit card). To check how a symbol’s counts should look, the free TD Sequential count checker runs in your browser, and you can compare its numbers with a script you are testing.

A short checklist before you trust a script

• Does the description state its setup, countdown and perfection rules?
• Is the code open, so you can read it?
• Do three completed 9s on a chart you know match your hand count?
• Does it say anything about alerts?
• Does its bar boundary match the tool you will compare it with?

Nothing on this page is financial advice. A script draws a count, and the count is not a forecast. Trading crypto carries a high risk of loss.
