Ultimate NATR█ | Overview
This N-ATR (Normalized Average True Range) volatility indicator illustrates the trend of percentage-based candle volatility over a self-defined number of bars (period). The primary objective of the indicator is to highlight periods of high or low volatility, which can be exploited within the cyclical logic of volatility contraction and expansion. If market behavior is inherently cyclical, it naturally follows that candle volatility itself also exhibits cyclical characteristics.
It can therefore be defined as a recurring pattern:
Low Volatility --> High Volatility --> Low Volatility -->
Here is a concrete example of the cyclical phases of volatility, which compresses during Accumulation or Distribution phases, and then explodes with a mark-up or mark-down in price.

█ | N-ATR Calculation
The N-ATR function is built upon the ATR (Average True Range), the quintessential volatility indicator.
Once the ATR_period is defined, the N-ATR is calculated using the following formula:
N-ATR = 100 * ATR / close
A moving average of the N-ATR completes the main indicator curve (yellow), making the function smoother and less sensitive to the instantaneous fluctuations of individual candles.
SMA_natr = sum(natr_i) / ATR_period
natr = 100 * ta.atr(periodo_ATR) / close
media_natr = ta.sma(natr, media_len)
█ | Settings
Show selected calc period : allows you to display or hide a background color that extends from the initial calculation date to the current bar, or from the first available bar if the selected date is earlier.
Set data range for ST.DEV : this setting defines the number of bars over which the standard deviation is calculated—an essential foundational element for plotting the upper and lower curves relative to the N-ATR, as well as for defining the statistical ranges in the tables overlaid on the price chart.
Static Levels : these are user-defined input values representing N-ATR value thresholds, used to classify table values within the ranges L1–L2 / L2–L3 / L3–L4 / >L4. To be meaningful, the user is expected to conduct separate statistical analysis using a spreadsheet or external data analysis tools or languages.
Coefficients x, w, y : these are input values used in the code to calculate statistical ranges and the bands above and below the N-ATR. For example, when expressing the statistical range as μ ± nσ, n can take the value of x, w, or y. By default, the values are x=1, w=2, y=3. However, as explained, they can be customized to represent wider or narrower statistical clusters, depending on the user's analytical preference.
█ | Tables
Static Levels : when the boolean button "Fixed Levels" is active, the table counts and distributes the data across five ranges, defined by the custom input values L1, L2, L3, and L4. Studying the table immediately answers the question: "Have I set appropriate values for the L_x levels?"
If the majority of data points fall within the lowest range, it indicates that the levels are spaced too far apart; conversely, if most values are in the "> L4" range, the levels are likely too narrow.
From left to right, the table also displays the probability that the current candle might move from its current range to the next one (Update Prob.); the absolute frequency of each range and the relative frequency are shown in the rightmost column.
Dynamic Levels : alternatively, you can deselect "Fixed Levels" to obtain an auto-calculated / self-adjusting representation of the N-ATR and its bands, based on the standard deviation input settings. In this case, the table takes on a more statistical form, useful for analyzing the frequency of outliers beyond a certain standard deviation, as defined by the largest multiplicative coefficient "y".
This visualization may also be preferred when aiming to study the standard deviation of the N-ATR in greater depth for a given asset, timeframe, and configuration more broadly.
█ | Next-to-Price Label
Information in the label next to the live price: if the first settings button in the indicator, "Fixed levels", is enabled (true), a label appears next to the price showing information about the relative position of the N-ATR associated with the current candle.
Specifically, if:
natr ≤ L1, ⇨ "Minimum-"
natr > L1 and natr ≤ L2, ⇨ "Minimum+"
natr > L2 and natr ≤ L3, ⇨ "Neutral L3"
natr > L3 and natr ≤ L4, ⇨ "Topping L4"
natr > L4, ⇨ "Excess L4: natr > V4"
Additionally, the corresponding N-ATR range is displayed to the right of the evaluated category for the individual candle.
1-Please note: this allows you to avoid constantly checking the N-ATR curve, especially when working in full-screen mode and focusing solely on the price chart for a cleaner view.
2-Please note : unfortunately, the informational label is not available in Dynamic display mode.

Average True Range (ATR)
ADX Supertrend | [DeV]The "ADX Supertrend" indicator is a user-friendly tool that blends two popular trading indicators—the Supertrend and the Average Directional Index (ADX)—to help traders spot trends and make smarter trading decisions. By combining these two, it offers a clearer picture of when a market is trending strongly and in which direction, while cutting down on misleading signals. Here’s a straightforward explanation of how each part works, how they team up, the benefits of using them together, and why the ADX makes the Supertrend even better.
Supertrend:
It's like a guide that follows the market’s price movements to tell you whether prices are trending up or down. It creates two lines, one above and one below the price, based on how much the market is bouncing around (its volatility). When the price moves above the upper line, it signals an uptrend (a good time to buy), and the indicator draws a line below the price to show support. When the price drops below the lower line, it signals a downtrend (a potential time to sell), and the line appears above the price as resistance. The Supertrend is great because it adjusts to market conditions, widening the gap between lines in wild markets and tightening it in calm ones.
Average Directional Index:
The ADX is all about measuring how strong a trend is, without caring whether it’s going up or down. Think of it as a meter that tells you if the market is charging forward with purpose or just drifting aimlessly. It uses a scale from 0 to 100, where higher numbers mean a stronger trend. For example, an ADX above 25 often suggests a solid trend worth paying attention to, while a low ADX signals a sleepy, sideways market. The ADX also looks at whether buyers or sellers are in control to confirm the trend’s direction.
Confluence:
The Supertrend is great at spotting trends, but it can be a bit trigger-happy, giving signals in markets that aren’t really trending. That’s where the ADX shines. It acts like a quality control check, making sure the Supertrend’s signals only count when the market is moving with conviction. By filtering out weak or messy trends, the ADX helps you avoid wasting time on trades that fizzle out. It also double-checks the trend’s direction, so you’re not just guessing whether buyers or sellers are in charge. This teamwork means you get signals that are more reliable and less likely to lead you astray, especially in tricky markets where prices bounce around without a clear path.
ZenLab ATR FNSThis indicator was created specifically for Zen Labs which includes a custom ATR (Average True Range) table that displays the ATR value for a selected period of candles.
ATR is a volatility indicator that measures the average range between high and low prices over a given number of periods. It helps traders assess how much an asset typically moves, providing valuable information for setting stop losses, take profits, or identifying market conditions. It adapts to changing market conditions, making it useful across different timeframes and asset classes.
How the ATR Indicator Works:
The ATR is based on the concept of True Range (TR), which is the greatest of the following three values:
- Current High minus Current Low
- Absolute value of Current High minus Previous Close
- Absolute value of Current Low minus Previous Close
Averaging the True Range:
Once the True Range is calculated for each period, the ATR is computed by averaging these True Ranges over a set number of periods and is displayed in the table.
Interpreting the ATR:
- A higher ATR value indicates higher volatility—prices are moving more significantly.
- A lower ATR value indicates lower volatility—prices are more stable and less active.

Adaptive ATR Limits█ OVERVIEW
This indicator plots adaptive ATR limits for intraday trading. A key feature of this indicator, which makes it different from other ATR limit indicators, is that the top and bottom ATR limit lines are always exactly one ATR apart from each other (in "auto" mode; there is also a "basic" mode, which plots the limits in the more traditional way—i.e., one ATR above the low and one ATR below the high at all times—and this can be used for comparison).
█ FEATURES
Provides an algorithm to plot the most reasonable intraday ATR top/bottom limits based on currently available information
Dynamically adapts limits as the price evolves during the day
Works correctly and consistently on both RTH and ETH charts
Has a user-selected ADR mode to base the limits on ADR instead of ATR
Option to include the current pre-market and previous day's post-market range in the calculation
Configurable ATR/ADR averaging length
Provides a visual smoothing option
Provides an information box showing the current numerical ATR/ADR values
Reasonable defaults that work well if the user changes nothing
Well-documented, high-quality, open-source code for those interested
█ HOW TO USE
At a minimum, there is nothing that needs to be set. The defaults work well. The ATR top line (red, configurable) gives you the most reasonable move given the currently available information. The line will move away from the price as the price approaches it; that is normal—it is reacting to new information. This happens until the ATR bottom limit hits the lower of the daily low and the previous day's close (in ATR mode). The ATR bottom line (green, configurable) works the same way, with reversed logic.
There is an option to use ADR instead of ATR. The ATR includes the previous day's RTH close in the range, whereas ADR does not. Another option allows the user to add the current day's pre-market range or the previous day's post-market into the current day's range, which has an effect if either of those went outside of today's RTH range, plus yesterday's RTH close (in the default ATR mode). Pre-market and post-market range is not typically included in the daily true range, so only change it if you really know you want it.
█ CONCEPTS
Most traditional ATR limit indicators plot the top ATR limit one ATR above the current daily low, and the bottom ATR limit one ATR below the current daily high. This indicator can also do that (in "basic" mode), but its value lies in its default "auto" mode, which uses an algorithm to dynamically adapt the ATR limits throughout the day, keeping them one ATR apart at all times. It tries to plot the most sensible ATR limits based on the current daily ATR, in order to provide a reasonable visual intraday target, given the available information at that point in time.
"Auto" mode is actually a weighted average of two methods: midpoint and relative (both of which can also be explicitly selected). The midpoint method places the midpoint of the ATR limit equal to the midpoint of the currently established daily range. The relative method measures the currently established daily range and calculates the position of the current price within it (as a ratio between 0 and 1). It then uses that value as a weight in a weighted average of extreme locations for the ATR limits, which are: the ATR top anchored to one ATR above the daily low, and the ATR bottom anchored to one ATR below the daily high.
The relative method is more advanced and better for most of the day; however, it can cause wild swings in the early market or pre-market before a reasonable range (as a percentage of ATR) has been established. "Auto" mode therefore takes another weighted average between the two methods, with the weight determined by the percentage of the ATR currently established within the day, more strongly weighting the calmer midpoint method before a good range is established. Once the full ATR has been achieved, the algorithm in "auto" mode will have fully switched to the relative method and will remain with that method for the rest of the day.
To explain the effect further, as an example, imagine that the price is approaching the full ATR range on the high side. At this point, the indicator will have almost fully transitioned to the second (relative) method. The lower ATR limit will now be anchored to the daily low as the price hits the upper ATR limit. If the price goes beyond the upper ATR, the lower ATR limit will stay anchored to the daily low, and the upper limit will stay anchored to one ATR above the lower limit. This allows you to see how far the price is going beyond the upper ATR limit. If the price then returns and backs off the upper ATR limit, the lower ATR limit will un-anchor from the daily low (it will actually rise, since the daily ATR range has been exceeded, so the lower ATR limit needs to come up because the actual daily range can’t fit into the ATR range anymore). The overall effect is to give you the best visual indication of where the price is in relation to a possible upper ATR-based target. Reverse this example for when the price low approaches the ATR range on the low side.
Care was taken so that the code uses no hard-coded time zones, exchanges, or session times. For this reason, it can in principle work globally. However, it very much depends on the information provided by the exchange, which is reflected in built-in Pine Script variables (see Limitations below).
█ LIMITATIONS
The indicator was developed for US/European equities and is tested on them only. It is also known to work on US futures; in this case, the whole 23-hour session is used, and the "Sessions to include in range" setting has no effect. It may or may not work as intended on security types and equities/futures for other countries.
Smart Range DetectorSmart Range Detector
What It Does
This indicator automatically detects and validates significant trading ranges using pivot point analysis combined with logarithmic fibonacci relationships.

PoiBox# PoiBox: Advanced Market Structure and POI Visualization Tool
PoiBox is a comprehensive market structure analysis tool designed to identify high-probability trading zones through advanced internal market structure (IDM) detection and points of interest (POI) calculation.
## How It Works
The indicator uses a multi-step approach to analyze price action:
1. **Market Structure Identification**: The script identifies significant highs and lows within your selected time range to determine the overall market structure direction (up or down).
2. **IDM Pattern Detection**: It then analyzes internal market structure patterns within this range, focusing on significant price movements that create trading opportunities.
3. **POI Calculation**: Using adaptive ATR measurements across multiple timeframes, the indicator calculates precise POI zones where price is likely to react. These zones are calibrated based on the volatility profile of each identified structure.
4. **Timeframe Correlation**: The script automatically determines which timeframe best matches each structure's size, providing valuable context for your trading decisions.
5. **Technical Implementation**: The indicator uses a sophisticated algorithm to analyze price swings, identify pivot points, and calculate market structure connections. It maintains a database of significant highs/lows and uses these to determine trend direction and potential reversal zones.
## Display Modes
PoiBox offers three powerful display options:
- **Main BOS**: Shows only the most significant breakout structure with its associated POI zone
- **Leg**: Displays the largest price leg within the selected range along with percentage-based POI zones
- **All IDMs**: Reveals all detected internal market structures and their POI zones
## Advanced Features
- **QM Mode**: Visualizes important market structure relationships with dashed lines connecting significant highs and lows
- **Trick Display**: Identifies nested market structures (tricks) within larger patterns, perfect for precision entries
- **Customizable POI Labels**: Control which price labels appear to maintain chart clarity
- **Extensive Color Settings**: Fully customizable colors for all visual elements
- **Safety Functions**: Includes built-in buffer management and error prevention algorithms to ensure stable performance across all timeframes and market conditions
## Trading Examples
**Downtrend Example:**
When PoiBox identifies a downtrend structure (Higher High → High → Low → Lower Low), it creates POI zones based on the market structure. As shown in the chart, these zones provide excellent entry opportunities when price returns to test previous structure. In this example, entering at the red POI zone with a stop above the zone and target at the QM level resulted in a 3.45 risk/reward trade.
**How to Read QM Lines:**
The dashed lines connecting High → Low → Higher High → Lower Low reveal the market's true structure. These connections help you anticipate where price might head next. When price breaks below a significant Low and creates a Lower Low, it confirms the downtrend continuation and provides a trading opportunity when price retests the broken structure.
**POI Zone Interpretation:**
- Red zones indicate bearish POI areas (ideal for short entries)
- Green zones indicate bullish POI areas (ideal for long entries)
- Yellow zones highlight the identified market structure
## Practical Application Example
In the GBP/USD example shown in the chart:
1. PoiBox identified a downtrend structure with Higher High → High → Low → Lower Low
2. The yellow box shows the main market structure area
3. The red POI zone appeared when price returned to test previous structure
4. Entry was taken at the POI zone with stop loss above structure
5. Target was placed at the QM level, resulting in a 3.45 risk/reward ratio trade
6. The dashed QM lines showed the overall market flow and direction
This demonstrates how PoiBox automatically identifies optimal entry and exit points based on market structure, without requiring manual analysis of each price swing.
## Mathematical Approach
PoiBox uses several mathematical concepts to determine market structure and calculate POI zones:
1. **Adaptive ATR Integration**: The script analyzes ATR (Average True Range) across multiple timeframes (M1, M5, M15, H1, H4, D1, W1, MN1) to determine the appropriate volatility context for each structure.
2. **Height-to-ATR Ratio**: The indicator calculates the ratio between structure height and the closest matching ATR value to determine the structure's timeframe context.
3. **Dynamic POI Calculation**: POI values are calculated using the formula:
`POI = factor * (atr_trigger + atr_double_trigger)`
where `factor` is derived from the structure's height-to-ATR ratio.
4. **Self-Adjusting Limits**: If the calculated POI value exceeds certain thresholds relative to structure height, the script automatically applies proportional adjustments to maintain optimal zone sizing.
## What Makes PoiBox Unique
While many indicators use common concepts like support/resistance or trend analysis, PoiBox stands apart through its:
1. **Adaptive POI Calculation**: Unlike static indicators, PoiBox automatically calibrates POI zones based on each market structure's volatility profile by analyzing ATR across multiple timeframes.
2. **Smart Timeframe Detection**: The indicator automatically determines the most relevant timeframe for each structure, eliminating guesswork and helping you align your trading with the appropriate market cycles.
3. **QM Visualization System**: Our proprietary QM visualization method reveals hidden market structure relationships that standard indicators cannot detect, giving you an edge in anticipating price movements.
4. **Nested Pattern Recognition**: The "Trick" detection feature identifies high-probability setups where smaller patterns form within larger ones, creating precise entry opportunities missed by conventional tools.
5. **Self-Adjusting Analysis**: PoiBox dynamically adapts to changing market conditions without requiring manual parameter adjustments, saving you time and increasing accuracy.
These innovations combine to create a truly original trading system that transforms complex market structure concepts into clear, actionable signals.
## How To Use
1. Define your analysis area using the time range selectors (X1 and X2)
2. Choose your preferred display mode based on your trading style
3. Enable QM Mode for additional market structure context if needed

Half Supertrend [NLR]While the Supertrend is a popular tool, traders often face the challenge of false signals and uncertain entry points. The Half Supertrend indicator addresses these shortcomings by introducing a dynamic mid-level , offering a significantly improved way to identify true trend strength and potential high-probability entries.
Here's how the mid-level enhances your trend analysis:
Filter Out Noise: Instead of reacting to every Supertrend flip, the mid-level helps you identify the strength of the trend. Price moving strongly away from the mid-level confirms a higher conviction move.
Identify Optimal Pullback Entries: Waiting for price to pull back to the dynamic mid-level after a Supertrend direction change can provide better entry prices and potentially higher probability setups, capitalizing on established momentum. This approach helps avoid entering prematurely on weaker signals.
Gain Deeper Trend Insight: The position of the price relative to both the Supertrend line and the mid-level paints a clearer picture of the current trend's strength and potential for continuation or reversal.
Here's the technical edge you've been waiting for:
Enhanced Trend Confirmation: This indicator plots a mid-level derived from half the Average True Range (ATR) multiple, acting as a crucial intermediary for assessing trend strength.
Intra-Trend Strength Analysis:
Price above/below the mid-level: Indicates a strong trending move aligned with the Supertrend direction.
Price between the mid-level and the Supertrend line: Suggests a weaker trend and a higher probability of consolidation or reversal.
Early Reversal Detection: Price crossing the mid-level can serve as an early warning signal of a potential trend change.
Higher Timeframe Clarity: The user-configurable higher timeframe (HTF) input provides a robust, multi-timeframe trend bias.
Dynamic Entry Levels: Potential entry levels based on the mid-level are plotted for visual guidance.
Clear Visual Representation: Color-coded lines and filled areas simplify trend and strength assessment.
How it works under the hood:
This indicator utilizes the standard Supertrend calculation on the chosen higher timeframe, incorporating the Average True Range (ATR) to determine volatility-adjusted bands. The unique addition is the "half trend" line, calculated by adding or subtracting half of the ATR-based trailing stop value from the Supertrend line. This mid-level acts as a crucial intermediary zone for evaluating the conviction of the current trend.
// Calculate the mid-level line
half_line = supertrend + (atr * half_factor)
Key Input Parameters:
ATR Length: Determines the period for calculating the Average True Range (default: 10).
Factor: The multiplier applied to the ATR to determine the Supertrend band width (default: 3). The mid-level dynamically adjusts based on half of this factor.
Timeframe: Allows you to select a higher timeframe for the Supertrend calculation, providing a broader trend context.
Up Color/Down Color: Customize the colors for uptrend and downtrend indications.
C&B Auto MK5C&B Auto MK5.2ema BullBear
Overview
The C&B Auto MK5.2ema BullBear is a versatile Pine Script indicator designed to help traders identify bullish and bearish market conditions across various timeframes. It combines Exponential Moving Averages (EMAs), Relative Strength Index (RSI), Average True Range (ATR), and customizable time filters to generate actionable signals. The indicator overlays on the price chart, displaying EMAs, a dynamic cloud, scaled RSI levels, bull/bear signals, and market condition labels, making it suitable for swing trading, day trading, or scalping in trending or volatile markets.
What It Does
This indicator generates bull and bear signals based on the interaction of two EMAs, filtered by RSI thresholds, ATR-based volatility, a 50/200 EMA trend filter, and user-defined time windows. It adapts to market volatility by adjusting EMA lengths and RSI thresholds. A dynamic cloud highlights trend direction or neutral zones, with candlestick coloring in neutral conditions. Market condition labels (current and historical) provide real-time trend and volatility context, displayed above the chart.
How It Works
The indicator uses the following components:
EMAs: Two EMAs (short and long) are calculated on a user-selected timeframe (1, 5, 15, 30, or 60 minutes). Their crossover or crossunder triggers potential bull/bear signals. EMA lengths adjust based on volatility (e.g., 10/20 for volatile markets, 5/10 for non-volatile).
Dynamic Cloud: The area between the EMAs forms a cloud, colored green for bullish trends, red for bearish trends, or a user-defined color (default yellow) for neutral zones (when EMAs are close, determined by an ATR-based threshold). Users can widen the cloud for visibility.
RSI Filter: RSI is scaled to price levels and plotted on the chart (optional). Signals are filtered to ensure RSI is within volatility-adjusted bull/bear thresholds and not in overbought/oversold zones.
ATR Volatility Filter: An optional filter ensures signals occur during sufficient volatility (ATR(14) > SMA(ATR, 20)).
50/200 EMA Trend Filter: An optional filter restricts bull signals to bullish trends (50 EMA > 200 EMA) and bear signals to bearish trends (50 EMA < 200 EMA).
Time Filter: Signals are restricted to a user-defined UTC time window (default 9:00–15:00), aligning with active trading sessions.
Market Condition Labels: Labels above the chart display the current trend (Bullish, Bearish, Neutral) and optionally volatility (e.g., “Bullish Volatile”). Up to two historical labels persist for a user-defined number of bars (default 5) to show recent trend changes.
Visual Aids: Bull signals appear as green triangles/labels below the bar, bear signals as red triangles/labels above. Candlesticks in neutral zones are colored (default yellow).
The indicator ensures compatibility with standard chart types (e.g., candlestick or bar charts) to produce realistic signals, avoiding non-standard types like Heikin Ashi or Renko.
How to Use It
Add to Chart: Apply the indicator to a candlestick or bar chart on TradingView.
Configure Settings:
Timeframe: Choose a timeframe (1, 5, 15, 30, or 60 minutes) to match your trading style.
Filters:
Enable/disable the ATR volatility filter to focus on high-volatility periods.
Enable/disable the 50/200 EMA trend filter to align signals with the broader trend.
Enable the time filter and set custom UTC hours/minutes (default 9:00–15:00).
Cloud Settings: Adjust the cloud width, neutral zone threshold, color, and transparency.
EMA Colors: Use default trend-based colors or set custom colors for short/long EMAs.
RSI Display: Toggle the scaled RSI and its thresholds, with customizable colors.
Signal Settings: Toggle bull/bear labels and set signal colors.
Market Condition Labels: Toggle current/historical labels, include/exclude volatility, and adjust decay period.
Interpret Signals:
Bull Signal: A green triangle or “Bull” label below the bar indicates potential bullish momentum (EMA crossover, RSI above bull threshold, within time window, passing filters).

ATR Strength Index~~~~~~~ATRRSI~~~~~~~~~
Understanding the ATR Strength IndexThe "ATR Strength Index" (ATR SI) is a custom technical indicator derived by applying the calculation methodology of the Relative Strength Index (RSI) to the values of the Average True Range (ATR).
While the standard RSI measures the momentum of price changes, the ATR SI measures the momentum of volatility itself, as represented by the ATR.It is important to note that this is not a standard, widely recognised indicator like the traditional RSI or ATR.
It's a custom construction designed to provide a different perspective on market dynamics – specifically, the speed and magnitude of changes in volatility.
How it is Calculated
The calculation of the ATR Strength Index follows the same steps as the standard RSI, but the input data is the ATR value for each period, rather than the price.Let ATRi be the Average True Range value for the current period i.Let ATRi−1 be the Average True Range value for the previous period i−1.Calculate the period-over-period change in ATR:ΔATRi=ATRi−ATRi−1Separate ATR Gains and ATR Losses:If ΔATRi>0, then ATR,Gaini=ΔATRi and ATR,Lossi=0.If ΔATRi<0, then ATR,Gaini=0 and ATR,Lossi=∣ΔATRi∣.If ΔATRi=0, then ATR,Gaini=0 and ATR,Lossi=0.Calculate the Smoothed Average ATR Gain and Average ATR Loss over a specified lookback period (let's call this the "RSI Length" or n).
This typically uses a smoothing method similar to Wilder's original RSI calculation (a modified moving average or exponential moving average).Average,ATR,Gainn=Smoothed Average of ATR,Gain over n periodsAverage,ATR,Lossn=Smoothed Average of ATR,Loss over n periodsCalculate the ATR Relative Strength (ATR RS):ATR,RSn=Average,ATR,LossnAverage,ATR,GainnCalculate the ATR Strength Index:ATR,SIn=100−1+ATR,RSn100The resulting index oscillates between 0 and 100, just like the standard RSI.
How to Use It
Interpreting the ATR Strength Index focuses on the momentum of volatility rather than price momentum:High Values (e.g., above 70): Indicate that volatility (as measured by ATR) has been increasing rapidly over the chosen period.
This could suggest a market transitioning from a period of low volatility to high volatility, potentially preceding or accompanying strong directional price moves or increased choppiness.Low Values (e.g., below 30): Indicate that volatility has been decreasing rapidly.
This could suggest a market transitioning from high volatility to low volatility, potentially entering a period of consolidation or ranging price action.Midline (50): Represents a balance between increasing and decreasing volatility momentum.Divergence: You could potentially look for divergence between the ATR value itself and the ATR Strength Index. For example, if ATR is making higher highs but the ATR SI is making lower highs, it might suggest that while volatility is still increasing, the speed of that increase is slowing down. The interpretation and reliability of such divergence would need careful testing.
This indicator is best used as a supplementary tool to gain insight into the underlying volatility dynamics of the market, rather than as a primary signal generator for price direction.
It can help in understanding the current market environment – whether volatility is picking up or dying down – which can inform the suitability of different trading strategies (e.g., trend-following strategies might be more effective when volatility momentum is high, while range-bound strategies might suit periods of low volatility momentum).
Uniqueness
The ATR Strength Index is unique because it applies a momentum oscillator's logic (RSI) to a volatility indicator's output (ATR).Standard RSI: Focuses on the directional force of price movements.Standard ATR: Measures the amount of volatility, regardless of direction.ATR Strength Index: Measures the speed and direction of change in volatility.
It provides a perspective that neither the standard RSI nor ATR offers on their own – a quantified measure of how quickly the market's choppiness or range is expanding or contracting. This can be valuable for traders who incorporate volatility analysis into their decision-making process.In summary, the ATR Strength Index is a custom indicator that adapts the RSI calculation to measure the momentum of volatility, offering a unique view on market dynamics by showing how rapidly volatility is increasing or decreasing.
MACD-V with Volatility Normalisation [DCD]MACD-V with Volatility Normalisation
This indicator is a modified version of the traditional MACD, designed to account for market volatility by normalizing the MACD line using the Average True Range (ATR). It provides a more adaptive approach to identifying momentum shifts and potential trend reversals. This indicator was developed by Alex Spiroglou in this paper:
Spiroglou, Alex, MACD-V: Volatility Normalised Momentum (May 3, 2022).
Features:
Volatility Normalization: The MACD line is adjusted using ATR to standardize its values across different market conditions.
Customizable Parameters: Users can adjust the MACD fast length, slow length, signal line smoothing, and ATR length to suit their trading style.
Histogram Visualization: The histogram highlights the difference between the MACD and signal lines, with customizable colors for positive and negative momentum.
Crossover Signals: Green and red dots indicate bullish and bearish crossovers between the MACD and signal lines.
Background Highlighting: The chart background changes to green when the MACD is above 0 and red when it is below 0, providing a clear visual cue for bullish and bearish conditions.
Horizontal Levels: Dotted horizontal lines are plotted at key levels for better visualization of MACD values.
How to Use:
Look for crossovers between the MACD and signal lines to identify potential buy or sell signals.
Use the histogram to gauge the strength of momentum.
Pay attention to the background color for quick identification of bullish (green) or bearish (red) conditions.
This indicator is ideal for traders who want a more dynamic MACD that adapts to market volatility. Customize the settings to align with your trading strategy and timeframe.
Volatility Regime Classifier | ATRP Percentile ZonesThis indicator helps you understand the current volatility environment of any asset by comparing recent ATR-based values to its historical range.
It defines four regimes:
🔴 Low Volatility: Volatility is decreasing
🟢 Normal: Volatility is increasing but still below average
🟠 High: Volatility is elevated
🟣 Extreme: Volatility is very high compared to recent history
⚙️ How it works
We calculate the Average True Range (ATR) as a percentage of price (ATRP), then compare a short-term ATR to a longer-term one. Their difference shows whether volatility is picking up or slowing down.
To make the signal more adaptive, we look at the distribution of recent volatility over a rolling window. We compute the 50th and 70th percentiles of that history to set dynamic thresholds.
About distribution & percentiles
Volatility in financial markets doesn't follow a normal (Gaussian) distribution, it's often skewed, with sudden spikes and fat tails. That means fixed thresholds (like "ATR > 20") can be misleading or irrelevant across assets and timeframes.
Using percentiles solves this:
The 50th percentile marks the middle of the recent volatility range.
The 70th percentile captures a zone where volatility is unusually high, but not too rare, which keeps the signal usable and not overly sensitive.
These levels offer a balance:
⚖️ not too reactive, not too slow — just enough to highlight meaningful shifts.

Chandelier Exit with ZLSMA SwiftEdgeChandelier Exit with ZLSMA
Overview
The "Chandelier Exit with ZLSMA" indicator is a powerful trading tool designed to identify trend reversals and high-probability entry points in financial markets. By combining the volatility-based Chandelier Exit with the low-lag Zero Lag Least Squares Moving Average (ZLSMA), this indicator provides clear Buy and Sell signals, enhanced with a unique signal strength score to help traders prioritize high-quality opportunities. Visual enhancements, including dynamic color coding, background highlights, and trend arrows, make it intuitive and visually appealing for both novice and experienced traders.
What It Does
This indicator generates Buy and Sell signals when a trend reversal is detected by the Chandelier Exit, but only if the price crosses the ZLSMA for the first time in the direction of the trend. Each signal is accompanied by a percentage score (0-100%) that measures its strength based on price movement and momentum. The indicator overlays directly on the price chart, displaying:
Buy/Sell labels with signal strength (e.g., "Buy (85%)").
A ZLSMA line that changes color (green for bullish, red for bearish) to indicate trend direction.
Background highlights to mark signal candles.
Trend arrows to visually confirm signal points.
How It Works
The indicator combines two complementary components:
Chandelier Exit:
Uses the Average True Range (ATR) to create dynamic trailing stop levels (long_stop and short_stop) that adapt to market volatility.
Signals a Buy when the price crosses above the short stop (indicating a potential uptrend) and a Sell when it crosses below the long stop (indicating a potential downtrend).
Default settings use an ATR period of 1 and a multiplier of 2.0 for high sensitivity to short-term price movements.
Zero Lag LSMA (ZLSMA):
A low-lag moving average based on linear regression, designed to reduce delay compared to traditional moving averages.
Acts as a trend filter: Buy signals are only generated when the price closes above ZLSMA for the first time, and Sell signals when it closes below for the first time.
Default length of 50 balances smoothness with responsiveness.
Signal Strength Score:
Each signal is assigned a score (0-100%) based on:
Distance to ZLSMA (60% weight): How far the price is from ZLSMA, normalized by ATR. Larger distances indicate stronger breakouts.
Candlestick size (40% weight): The size of the signal candle, normalized by ATR. Larger candles suggest stronger momentum.
A high score (e.g., >80%) indicates a robust signal, while a low score (e.g., <50%) suggests caution.
Visual Features:
The ZLSMA line changes color (green for bullish, red for bearish) to reflect the trend.
Signal candles are highlighted with a subtle green (Buy) or red (Sell) background.
Tiny triangular arrows appear below Buy signals and above Sell signals for clear visual confirmation.
Why Combine Chandelier Exit and ZLSMA?
The Chandelier Exit excels at identifying trend reversals through volatility-based stops, but it can generate false signals in choppy markets due to its sensitivity (especially with a short ATR period of 1). The ZLSMA addresses this by acting as a trend filter, ensuring signals are only triggered when the price confirms a trend by crossing the ZLSMA for the first time. This combination reduces noise and focuses on high-probability setups. The signal strength score further enhances decision-making by quantifying the conviction behind each signal, making the indicator feel intuitive and "smart."
How to Use
Setup:
Add the indicator to your chart in TradingView.
Adjust inputs in the settings panel:
ATR Period (default: 1): Controls the sensitivity of Chandelier Exit. Increase for smoother signals.
ATR Multiplier (default: 2.0): Sets the distance of stop levels from price extremes.
ZLSMA Length (default: 50): Adjusts the smoothness of the ZLSMA line. Shorter lengths (e.g., 20-30) are more responsive; longer lengths (e.g., 50-100) are smoother.
Use Close Price for Extremums (default: true): Determines whether Chandelier Exit uses closing prices or high/low prices for calculations.
Interpreting Signals:
Buy Signal: A green "Buy (X%)" label appears below a candle when the price crosses above the Chandelier Exit short stop and closes above ZLSMA for the first time. The percentage indicates signal strength (higher = stronger).
Sell Signal: A red "Sell (X%)" label appears above a candle when the price crosses below the Chandelier Exit long stop and closes below ZLSMA for the first time.
Use the ZLSMA line’s color (green for bullish, red for bearish) to confirm the overall trend.
Prioritize signals with high strength scores (e.g., >70%) for better reliability.
Trading Considerations:
Combine signals with other analysis (e.g., support/resistance, volume) for confirmation.
Test the indicator on a demo account or use TradingView’s Strategy Tester to evaluate performance.
Be cautious with the default ATR period of 1, as it is highly sensitive and may generate frequent signals in volatile markets.
What Makes It Unique
This indicator stands out due to its thoughtful integration of Chandelier Exit and ZLSMA, creating a synergy that balances sensitivity with reliability. The first-cross filter ensures signals are triggered only at the start of potential trends, reducing false positives. The signal strength score adds a layer of intelligence, helping traders assess the quality of each signal without needing external tools. Visual enhancements, such as dynamic ZLSMA coloring, background highlights, and trend arrows, make the indicator user-friendly and visually engaging, appealing to traders seeking a modern, intuitive tool.
Limitations and Notes
The short ATR period (1) makes the indicator highly sensitive, which suits short-term traders but may produce noise in sideways markets. Increase the ATR period for smoother signals.
The signal strength score is a heuristic based on price movement and momentum, not a predictive model. Use it as a guide, not a definitive predictor.
Always backtest the indicator on your preferred market and timeframe to ensure it aligns with your trading strategy.
PTI 2025: ATR TREND TRACKER
This indicator helps traders follow trends while managing risk using a dynamic trailing stop based on volatility (ATR). It also adds a higher timeframe trend filter to avoid trading against the major trend.
OANDA:XAUUSD
How It Works
1. ATR Trailing Stop (Main Mechanism)
Calculates the Average True Range (ATR) over a long period (default: 250 bars).
Sets a trailing stop level at a multiple (default: 3x) of the ATR.
If price rises, the stop moves up, locking in profits.
If price falls, the stop stays fixed until broken.
The stop flips direction when price crosses it.
2. Higher Timeframe Trend Filter (Extra Confirmation)
Checks if the Daily (or selected HTF) close is above/below a 200-period EMA.
Green background = Uptrend (favor long trades).
Red background = Downtrend (favor short trades).
Optional: Can disable this filter if you want pure ATR signals.
3. Buy & Sell Signals
Buy Signal → Price crosses above the ATR stop + HTF trend is up (if filter is on).
Sell Signal → Price crosses below the ATR stop + HTF trend is down (if filter is on).
4. Visuals & Alerts
Trailing Stop Line (changes color based on trend direction).
Buy/Sell Labels (appear below/above candles).
Alerts (can notify you when signals trigger).
SwiftEdge NW EnvelopeSwiftEdge NW Envelope
Overview
The SwiftEdge NW Envelope is a visually striking technical indicator designed for traders seeking to identify high-probability buy and sell opportunities in volatile markets. By combining the Relative Strength Index (RSI), Average True Range (ATR), and Nadaraya-Watson Envelope, this indicator provides a unique blend of momentum, volatility, and non-linear trend analysis. Its futuristic, AI-inspired aesthetic—featuring neon gradients and dynamic colors—enhances chart readability while delivering actionable trading signals.
What It Does
The SwiftEdge NW Envelope generates buy and sell signals based on price interactions with dynamically calculated support and resistance bands, confirmed by RSI conditions. The indicator:
Plots a Nadaraya-Watson Envelope to identify smooth, non-linear price trends and dynamic support/resistance zones.
Uses ATR to scale the envelope’s bands, adapting to market volatility.
Employs RSI to confirm overbought/oversold conditions, ensuring signals align with momentum.
Visualizes signals with neon-colored markers, background zones, and labels for intuitive decision-making.
How It Works
The indicator integrates three key components:
Nadaraya-Watson Envelope:
A kernel-based regression technique that smooths price data to create a central trend line (mean) and dynamic upper/lower bands.
Unlike traditional moving averages, it provides a non-linear, adaptive view of price trends, making it ideal for capturing complex market movements.
The band width is determined by ATR, ensuring responsiveness to volatility.
Average True Range (ATR):
Measures market volatility to scale the envelope’s bands.
A multiplier (default: 0.5) adjusts the sensitivity of the bands, allowing traders to fine-tune the indicator for different assets or market conditions.
Relative Strength Index (RSI):
A momentum oscillator with a shortened period (default: 5) for increased sensitivity.
Confirms buy signals when RSI is oversold (default: <30) and sell signals when RSI is overbought (default: >70).
Signal Logic
Buy Signal: Triggered when the price crosses above the lower band of the Nadaraya-Watson Envelope and RSI is below the oversold threshold. Marked by a green circle and a "BUY" label below the candle.
Sell Signal: Triggered when the price crosses below the upper band and RSI is above the overbought threshold. Marked by a magenta circle and a "SELL" label above the candle.
Background Zones: Green (buy) or red (sell) translucent zones highlight signal areas for quick recognition.
Visual Features
Dynamic Colors: The central trend line shifts between cyan (uptrend), purple (downtrend), or gray (neutral) based on price position relative to the mean.
Neon Gradient Fill: A translucent blue fill between the upper (green) and lower (red) bands creates a glowing, futuristic effect.
Modern Signal Markers: Small, vibrant circles (green for buy, magenta for sell) and clear labels enhance visual clarity.
Why This Combination?
The SwiftEdge NW Envelope combines RSI, ATR, and Nadaraya-Watson Envelope to create a robust trading tool:
RSI provides momentum confirmation, filtering out false signals in choppy markets.
ATR ensures the envelope adapts to changing volatility, making it suitable for both trending and ranging markets.
Nadaraya-Watson Envelope offers a sophisticated, non-linear alternative to traditional bands (e.g., Bollinger Bands), capturing subtle price dynamics. Together, these components deliver a balanced approach to trend-following and mean-reversion strategies, with RSI acting as a gatekeeper to improve signal reliability.
Customize Settings:
RSI Period (5): Adjust for more/less sensitivity to momentum.
RSI Overbought/Oversold (70/30): Modify thresholds to tighten or loosen signal conditions.
ATR Period (14) and Multiplier (0.5): Tune volatility sensitivity.
NW Length (25), Bandwidth (8.0), Multiplier (3.0): Adjust the smoothness and width of the envelope.
Interpret Signals:
Buy: Look for green circles and "BUY" labels when price crosses above the lower band, confirmed by low RSI.
Sell: Look for magenta circles and "SELL" labels when price crosses below the upper band, confirmed by high RSI.
Use background zones to quickly spot active signal areas.
Combine with Other Tools:
Pair with support/resistance levels or volume analysis for additional confirmation.
Test signals on a demo account before live trading.
Originality
The SwiftEdge NW Envelope stands out due to:
Its innovative use of Nadaraya-Watson regression, a less common but powerful tool for non-linear trend analysis.
A unique visual design with neon gradients and dynamic colors, inspired by AI and futuristic interfaces, making it both functional and visually engaging.
A streamlined signal system that balances momentum (RSI), volatility (ATR), and trend (Nadaraya-Watson), reducing noise and enhancing trade precision.
Notes
Best suited for volatile markets (e.g., forex, crypto, stocks) where price swings create clear envelope breakouts.
Adjust input parameters to match your trading style (e.g., shorter RSI period for scalping, wider bands for swing trading).
Always backtest and validate signals in your specific market and timeframe before trading.

- Daily: Compares to previous day's maximum
- Weekly: Week-to-week comparison
- NYSE Weekly: Specialized for stock market trading (Monday-Friday only)
- Monthly: Month-to-month analysis
- Quarterly: Quarter-to-quarter perspective
- Yearly: Year-over-year volume comparison
2. Ratio-Based Measurement
- Displays volume as a ratio (0 to 1+) rather than raw numbers
- 1.0 represents volume equal to previous period's maximum
- Example: If previous max was 50,000 contracts:
- Current volume of 25,000 shows as 0.5
- Current volume of 75,000 shows as 1.5
3. Triple Coloring Modes
- Moving Average Based:
- Compares current ratio to its moving average
- Customizable MA period
- Green: Above MA (higher than average activity)
- Red: Below MA (lower than average activity)
- Previous Candle Comparison:
- Simple increase/decrease from previous bar
- Green: Higher than previous bar
- Red: Lower than previous bar
- Candle Color Based:
- Syncs with price action
- Green: Bullish candles (close > open)
- Red: Bearish candles (close < open)

Best Practices
For Day Traders
- Use Daily split for intraday volume patterns
- MA coloring mode with shorter periods (5-10)
- Focus on ratios during market hours
For Swing Traders
- Weekly or NYSE Weekly splits
- Longer MA periods (15-20)
- Look for sustained volume patterns
For Position Traders
- Monthly or Quarterly splits
- Candle color mode for trend confirmation
- Focus on major volume shifts
Limitations
- Requires one full period to establish baseline
- May be less effective in extremely low volume conditions
- NYSE Weekly mode specific to stock market hours
This indicator is particularly valuable for traders who understand that volume is a crucial component of price action but need a more sophisticated way to analyze it than simple volume bars. It's especially useful for those who trade based on market participation levels and need to quickly identify whether current volume is significant relative to recent history.
Rogue ORB PRORogue ORB Pro is a precision-engineered Opening Range Breakout (ORB) indicator built for active intraday traders who need real signals, not noise.
This tool identifies high-probability breakout entries from the opening range, enhanced with optional ATR-based stop loss levels, deviation targets, cooldown filters, and a relative volume gate to filter weak setups.
🔍 Key Features:
Opening Range High/Low: Drawn from a user-defined time window and locked for the day
Deviations: Automatically plots target zones above and below the OR range (e.g. 1, 2 deviations)
Pre-Market Levels: Automatically draws pre market high and low lines at the end of pre market session
Buy/Sell Signals: Triggered on breakout of the OR High/Low with configurable breakout logic (touch or close)
ATR Stop Loss Line: Dynamically drawn at a fixed ATR distance from breakout candle, with optional SL label
Cooldown Period: Prevents back-to-back signals by enforcing a user-defined bar delay between entries, can help with overtrading
Volume Filter: Optional relative volume filter that requires breakout candles to exceed a custom volume threshold
VWAP Overlay: Visual VWAP for directional bias and confluence
ATR Stop-Loss & TargetsATR and Supertrend-based SL/TP & Trailing System
This indicator combines Average True Range (ATR) and Supertrend logic to help traders define precise stop-loss, first target, and trailing stop-loss (TSL) levels.
⚙️ Key Features:
📏 ATR-based Stop-Loss & Target Lines:
Uses ATR (default period: 5) based on the previous day's candle for more stable risk management.
Traders can choose the price source: Close, Open, or enter a manual price.
SL and first target are calculated using multipliers:
Multiplier 1 = Stop Loss
Multiplier 2 = First Target
📉 Supertrend for Trailing Stop:
Built-in Supertrend logic for trailing stop-loss management.
Uses ATR(10) with a multiplier of 2.1, based on HL2.
Supertrend can be toggled ON/OFF from the settings.
