Adaptive VWAP [QuantAlgo]Introducing the Adaptive VWAP by QuantAlgo 📈🧬
Enhance your trading and investing strategies with the Adaptive VWAP , a versatile tool designed to provide dynamic insights into market trends and price behavior. This indicator offers a flexible approach to VWAP calculations by allowing users to adapt it based on lookback periods or fixed timeframes, making it suitable for a wide range of market conditions.
🌟 Key Features:
🛠 Customizable VWAP Settings: Choose between an adaptive VWAP that adjusts based on a rolling lookback period, or switch to a fixed timeframe (e.g., daily, weekly, monthly) for a more structured approach. Adjust the VWAP to suit your trading or investing style.
💫 Dynamic Bands and ATR Filter: Configurable deviation bands with multipliers allow you to visualize price movement around VWAP, while an ATR-based noise filter helps reduce false signals during periods of market fluctuation.
🎨 Trend Visualization: Color-coded trend identification helps you easily spot uptrends and downtrends based on VWAP positioning. The indicator fills the areas between the bands for clearer visual representation of price volatility and trend strength.
🔔 Custom Alerts: Set up alerts for when price crosses above or below the VWAP, signaling potential uptrend or downtrend opportunities. Stay informed without needing to monitor the charts constantly.
✍️ How to Use:
✅ Add the Indicator: Add the Adaptive VWAP to your favourites and apply to your chart. Choose between adaptive or timeframe-based VWAP calculation, adjust the lookback period, and configure the deviation bands to your preferred settings.
👀 Monitor Bands and Trends: Watch for price interaction with the VWAP and its deviation bands. The color-coded signals and band fills help identify potential trend shifts or price extremes.
🔔 Set Alerts: Configure alerts for uptrend and downtrend signals based on price crossing the VWAP, so you’re always informed of significant market movements.
⚙️ How It Works:
The Adaptive VWAP adjusts its calculation based on the user’s chosen configuration, allowing for a flexible approach to market analysis. The adaptive setting uses a rolling lookback period to continuously adjust the VWAP, while the fixed timeframe option anchors VWAP to key timeframes like daily, weekly, or monthly periods. This flexibility enables traders and investors to use the tool in various market environments.
Deviation bands, calculated with customizable multipliers, provide a clear visual of how far the price has moved from the VWAP, helping you gauge potential overbought or oversold conditions. To reduce false signals, an ATR-based filter can be applied, ensuring that only significant price movements trigger trend confirmations.
The tool also includes a fast exponential smoothing function for the VWAP, helping smooth out price fluctuations without sacrificing responsiveness. Trend confirmation is reinforced by the number of bars that price stays above or below the VWAP, ensuring a more consistent trend identification process.
Disclaimer:
The Adaptive VWAP is designed to enhance your market analysis but should not be relied upon as the sole basis for trading or investing decisions. Always combine it with other analytical tools and practices. No statements or signals from this indicator constitute financial advice. Past performance is not indicative of future results.

Moving Average High/Low Entry SignalsInstead of applying the n-day moving average to the closing prices, two moving averages are applied separately to the highs and lows. Long positions are entered when price crosses above the high moving average and short positions are triggered when price crosses the low moving average.
Ideally this is used to identify/catch a trend or can be used as a confirmation on what direction the market decides to take. This is an entry signal and exit can be done based on personal choice or until an opposing signal is triggered.
Harish Algo 2The script "Harish Algo 2" is a Pine Script-based TradingView indicator that automatically identifies significant trendlines based on fractal points and tracks price interactions with those trendlines. Key features include:
Fractal Detection: The script identifies fractal highs and lows, using a configurable fractal period, to serve as pivot points for generating trendlines. Fractal highs are marked in blue, and fractal lows are marked in red.
Dynamic Trendlines: It draws trendlines between consecutive fractal points, with a limit on the maximum number of active trendlines. The trendlines can be extended either in both directions or to the right, as per user input. The line width can also be customized.
Support/Resistance Counting: Each trendline tracks how many times the price interacts with it. If the price approaches the line from above and touches or stays near it, the line is considered a support. If the price approaches from below, it is considered a resistance. These counts are used to modify the trendline's color and appearance.
Trendlines with 2 support interactions turn green.
Trendlines with 2 resistance interactions turn red.
Trendlines with 3 or more interactions turn black.
Trendline Styling: Trendlines that extend over a long period (more than 100 bars) change to a dotted style to highlight their persistence.
Break Detection: The script monitors if the price crosses a trendline, signaling a potential breakout or breakdown. Once a trendline is broken, it stops extending further.
Trendline Removal: The script ensures that only a limited number of trendlines are active at a time. If the maximum number of trendlines is reached, the oldest trendline is removed to make space for new ones.
This indicator is designed to help traders visualize important trendlines, spot potential support and resistance levels, and detect breakouts or breakdowns based on price movement.
EMA14 Second Time BUY/SELL AlertsEMA14 Crossover Strategy with Conditional BUY/SELL Alerts
This powerful script provides dynamic BUY and SELL alerts based on the interaction between price action and the EMA14 (Exponential Moving Average 14). Ideal for traders looking to capitalize on trend reversals and breakout patterns, this indicator helps you time entries and exits with precision.
Key Features:
Second-Time Crossover Alerts: The script tracks when the price crosses the EMA14 for the second time. This adds confirmation to price movements and helps filter out false signals.
Conditional BUY/SELL Alerts:
BUY Alert: Triggered when the price closes above the EMA14 after a previous SELL signal, indicating a potential trend reversal or breakout to the upside.
SELL Alert: Triggered when the price closes below the EMA14 after a previous BUY signal, signaling a possible shift to the downside.
Advanced Crossover Tracking:
The script counts each crossover of the price relative to the EMA14, generating a BUY or SELL signal on the second instance to provide additional confirmation of trend strength.
Visual Alerts: Labels are plotted directly on the chart to highlight when a BUY or SELL signal has occurred, providing immediate visual feedback for traders to react in real-time.
How It Works:
The script combines the simplicity of EMA14 with enhanced logic that tracks both crossovers and closes relative to the moving average. This ensures that the signals are based not only on quick movements but also on price confirmation, reducing noise and false breakouts.
This script is perfect for traders who rely on moving average strategies and want additional filtering to confirm trends and optimize trade timing.

Charan_Trading_IndicatorCharan_Trading_Indicator Overview:
The Charan_Trading_Indicator combines several technical analysis tools, including Bollinger Bands, RSI (Relative Strength Index), VWAP (Volume-Weighted Average Price), and ATR (Average True Range), to provide buy and sell signals. The script incorporates multiple strategies, such as crack snap setups, overbought/oversold levels, and trend continuation indicators, all tailored for precise market entry and exit points.
Key Components:
RSI (Relative Strength Index):
The indicator uses RSI to detect overbought (RSI > 70) and oversold (RSI < 30) market conditions.
Alerts are triggered when prices are within the specified buy/sell range and RSI crosses these thresholds.
Bollinger Bands:
Bollinger Bands are calculated based on a configurable moving average and standard deviation.
The script identifies potential buy signals when the price dips below the lower Bollinger Band and recovers, and sell signals when the price exceeds the upper Bollinger Band and retraces.
Crack Snap Strategies:
The indicator incorporates multiple variations of the crack snap strategy:
Buy Signals: Triggered when price opens below the lower Bollinger Band and closes above it, alongside certain conditions in previous candles.
Sell Signals: Triggered when price opens above the upper Bollinger Band and closes below it, with similar candle patterns.
Variations such as 3-candle (3C) and 4-candle (4C) versions refine the crack snap setups for more robust signals.
Isolated Candle Conditions:
The indicator tracks isolated candles, where the entire candle lies above or below the Bollinger Bands, to identify potential reversal points.
Trend Continuation Signals:
Conditions based on the candle range and previous highs/lows allow the indicator to generate signals for trend continuation:
Buy signals when price breaks above the previous two highs.
Sell signals when price breaks below the previous two lows.
VWAP (Volume-Weighted Average Price):
The indicator integrates VWAP to give additional support and resistance levels, ensuring signals align with volume trends.
ATR-Based Stop Loss:
For both buy and sell conditions, the script plots stop-loss levels based on the ATR (Average True Range), giving dynamic risk management levels.
Buy/Sell Ranges:
The user can set minimum and maximum price ranges for buy and sell signals, ensuring that the indicator only generates alerts within desired price ranges.
How It Works:
Buy Signals: The script generates buy signals based on multiple conditions, including the crack snap strategy, oversold RSI levels, and trend continuation setups. When these conditions are met, green triangles appear below the price bars, and an alert is triggered.
Sell Signals: Sell signals are triggered when the opposite conditions are met (overbought RSI, crack snap sell setups, trend breaks), and red triangles appear above the price bars.
Visual Indicators: The script plots upper and lower Bollinger Bands, stop loss levels, and VWAP on the chart, providing a comprehensive view of market conditions and support/resistance levels.
This indicator is versatile, combining multiple technical tools for robust decision-making in trading. It generates alerts, plots visual markers, and integrates risk management, making it a well-rounded tool for technical analysis.

Volatility Trend Bands [UAlgo]The Volatility Trend Bands is a trend-following indicator that combines the concepts of volatility and trend detection. Built using the Average True Range (ATR) to measure volatility, this indicator dynamically adjusts upper and lower bands around price movements. The bands act as dynamic support and resistance levels, making it easier to identify trend shifts and potential entry and exit points.
With the ATR multiplier, this indicator effectively captures volatility-based shifts in the market. The use of midline values allows for accurate trend detection, which is displayed through color-coded signals on the chart. Additionally, this tool provides clear buy and sell signals, accompanied by intuitive graphical markers for ease of use.
The Volatility Trend Bands is ideal for traders seeking an adaptive trend-following method that responds to changing market conditions while maintaining robust volatility control.
🔶 Key Features
Dynamic Support and Resistance: The indicator utilizes volatility to create dynamic bands. The upper band acts as resistance, and the lower band acts as support for the price. Wider bands indicate higher volatility, while narrower bands indicate lower volatility.
Customizable Inputs
You can tailor the indicator to your strategy by adjusting the:
Price Source: Select the price data (e.g., closing price) used for calculations.
ATR Length: Define the lookback period for the Average True Range (ATR) volatility measure.
ATR Multiplier: This factor controls the width of the volatility bands relative to the ATR value.
Color Options: Choose colors for the bands and signal arrows for better visualization.
Visual Signals: Arrows ("▲" for buy, "▼" for sell) appear on the chart when the trend changes, providing clear entry point indications.
Alerts: Integrated alerts for both buy and sell conditions, allowing you to receive notifications for potential trade opportunities.
🔶 Interpreting Indicator
Upper and Lower Bands: The upper and lower bands are dynamic, adjusting based on market volatility using the ATR. These bands serve as adaptive support and resistance levels. When price breaks above the upper band, it indicates a potential bullish breakout, signaling a strong uptrend. Conversely, a break below the lower band signals a bearish breakout, indicating a downtrend.
Buy/Sell Signals: The indicator provides clear buy and sell signals at breakout points. A buy signal ("▲") is generated when the price breaks above the upper band, suggesting the start of a bullish trend. A sell signal ("▼") is triggered when the price breaks below the lower band, indicating the beginning of a bearish trend. These signals help traders identify potential entry and exit points at key breakout levels.
Color-Coded Bars: The bars on the chart change color based on the trend direction. Teal bars represent bullish momentum, while purple bars signify bearish momentum. This color coding provides a quick visual cue about the market's current direction.

Kenji Indicator Version 2.0KenJi Indicator Version 2.0
Indicator Class : Average analysis/trend following
Trading type : Any
Time frame : Any
Purpose : Trend-based trading
Level of aggressiveness : Flexible
Introduction
The basic rule of trading is as follows: "trend is your friend." Means, it is extremely important to follow the current market sentiments rather than resisting them. Following this principle allows a trader to feel as comfortable as possible during the trading: positions typically are in a profit zone and there is no psychological pressure of a negative financial result that often leads to hasty position closures.
Despite the advantages of trend-following strategies, many traders struggle to accurately identify the prevailing trend and market sentiments, resulting in bad trading decisions and, consequently, unfavorable trading outcomes.
To address these challenges, streamline the analysis process, and enhance the overall quality of trading decisions, our team of analysts has developed The KenJi Indicator Version 2.0.
About the KenJi Indicator Version 2.0
The KenJi Indicator Version 2.0 offers a novel approach to traditional average-based analysis. Many conventional strategies relying on averages tend to generate numerous false signals, especially in “flat” markets where frequent crossovers and shifts in direction are common. This reduces the overall effectiveness of average analysis.
The KenJi Indicator Version 2.0 addresses these issues by incorporating a unique algorithm, which combines correlation and moving average analysis to avoid the pitfalls of traditional methods. It accurately identifies market conditions—indicated by colors: red for a downtrend, blue for an uptrend, and green for a “flat” market—thereby improving the quality of signals and helping traders manage trends more effectively.
The KenJi Indicator Version 2.0 indicator not only identifies optimal entry points but also assists in timing exits for profit-taking. Moreover, it assesses the aggressiveness of signals, making it suitable for both novice and experienced traders.
Trading Rules
Using the KenJi Indicator Version 2.0 is straightforward. When the price enters the buy or sell zone—represented by a blue or red area between the fast and slow averages—it generates a signal to enter a position. This position remains active until the market condition changes (such as a shift from a downtrend to “flat”) or until a close signal appears, indicated by a significant divergence shown by a blue or red cross.
Indicator Structure
The KenJi Indicator Version 2.0 consists of colored zones, level lines and stop crosses:
Trend Zones : These are color-coded (blue, red, or green) to highlight trend conditions and entry points.
Level Lines : The lines indicate the nearest support/resistance lines (red for resistance, blue for support). Available for 4H time-frame and below
Stop Crosses : Blue or Red crosses are displayed on the Chart to show the moments of extreme price divergence from the current trend. A good moment to fix profits.
For ease of use, the indicator shows buy and sell signals directly on the chart.
Signal Types:
Standard : Uses the basic lot size for trades.
Aggressive : Uses double the standard lot size for higher risk/reward trades.
Profit zones are marked by blue/red x-crosses: red x-crosses indicate "sell" take-profit zones, while blue x-crosses indicate "buy" take-profit zones.
Alerts and Notifications
The indicator includes built-in alerts and notifications, ensuring traders don’t miss any "buy" or "sell" signals.
Input Parameters
The KenJi Indicator Version 2.0 offers several input parameters for customization:
Slow Average Period : Defines the period for the slow average. Longer periods provide a more stable, conservative response to price changes.
Fast Average Period : Defines the period for the fast average. Similar to the slow average, a longer period provides more conservative signals.
Correlation Period : Used to calculate the Pearson correlation coefficient and estimate the relationship between the fast and slow averages, improving trend identification.
Divergence Sensitivity : Determines the placement of take-profit zones, with higher values increasing the distance of these zones.

Bollinger Bands with RSI Buy/Sell Signals (15 min) Bollinger Bands with RSI Buy/Sell Signals (15 Min)
Description:
The Bollinger Bands with RSI Buy/Sell Signals (15 Min) indicator is designed to help traders identify potential reversal points in the market using two popular technical indicators: Bollinger Bands and the Relative Strength Index (RSI).
How It Works:
Bollinger Bands:
Bollinger Bands consist of an upper band, lower band, and a middle line (Simple Moving Average). These bands adapt to market volatility, expanding during high volatility and contracting during low volatility.
This indicator monitors the 15-minute Bollinger Bands. If the price moves completely outside the bands, it signals that the market is potentially overextended.
Relative Strength Index (RSI):
RSI is a momentum indicator that measures the strength of price movements. RSI readings above 70 indicate an overbought condition, while readings below 30 suggest an oversold condition.
This indicator uses the RSI on the 15-minute time frame to further confirm overbought and oversold conditions.
Buy/Sell Signal Generation:
Buy Signal:
A buy signal is triggered when the market price crosses above the lower Bollinger Band on the 15-minute time frame, indicating that the market may be oversold.
Additionally, the RSI must be below 30, confirming an oversold condition.
A "Buy" label appears below the price when this condition is met.
Sell Signal:
A sell signal is triggered when the market price crosses below the upper Bollinger Band on the 15-minute time frame, indicating that the market may be overbought.
The RSI must be above 70, confirming an overbought condition.
A "Sell" label appears above the price when this condition is met.
Simplified Market ProfileVolume Bins: This script divides the price range into num_bins equal price levels. Each bin holds the cumulative volume for that price range.
Profile Length: The number of past bars that the profile considers for building the volume histogram.
Bin Size: The price range between bins is determined by dividing the difference between the highest and lowest prices over the specified range.
Volume Calculation: The script iterates over each bar within the specified range, determining which price bin the bar’s volume should be added to.
Plotting: The script visualizes the volume profile as lines plotted horizontally at different price levels, with thickness proportional to the volume traded at that level.
Smart Signals Assistant [AlgoAlpha]Introduction
The Smart Signals Assistant, developed by AlgoAlpha, is a robust trading tool designed to empower traders of all levels with a flexible, customizable overlay indicator. Built on proprietary logic, this tool can integrate seamlessly with other indicators or be used as a standalone tool and offers powerful market insights, enabling users to tailor their trading strategy by combining different components for unique strategies. Whether you focus on trend-following or mean-reversion strategies, the Smart Signals Assistant is optimized to support you across various market conditions.
Core Features
1. Trend Cipher Component (Trend Identification and Bar Coloring):
The Trend Cipher is the core feature of the Smart Signals Assistant. It offers an intuitive method to detect trends by displaying clear visual signals, such as arrows ("▲" for bullish trends and "▼" for bearish trends). Additionally, signal strength indications are also included where the arrows will have a '+' sign to signify a strong trend, a strong signal is determined when the volatility of prices are increasing. the candlesticks are color-coded to reflect market conditions—green for bullish, red for bearish, and gray when the market is ranging, ranging markets are marked when the prices end up retracing in the opposite direction after a signal is sent, indicating that buyers/sellers are not ready to continue the trend yet. These added layers of confluence allows users to judge if signals provided by the Trend Cipher are high probability signals.
- Exit Signals : "X" marks indicate potential take-profit points when momentum is waning. Users can set a maximum number of exit signals, allowing for greater control over trade management and predictable exit strategies.
- Customization : Users can adjust the period length for the Trend Cipher to suit different market conditions and strategies. For example, a shorter period is more sensitive and responsive to quick shifts in trends, while a longer period offers more stable signals for long-term traders.(longer periods shown below)
2. Trend Bias Component (Long-term Trend Filter and Confirmation):
The Trend Bias acts as a trend confirmation tool. It comes in the form of a smooth band that reflects the central tendency of price movements. It provides a more comprehensive view of whether the price is trend up or down, as well as whether the price is trending strongly or not. It does so by checking if the current momentum of price is stronger relative to the average momentum over a period of time.
As mentioned earlier, the Trend Bias can also act as a marker of central tendency, meaning that users can use the Trend Bias as a dynamic take-profit zone when executing reversal trades.
- When aligned with the Trend Cipher, the Trend Bias helps traders differentiate between strong and weak trends. Bright colors signify a robust trend, while subdued colors signal weakening momentum. This helps users avoid false signals and enter high-probability trades.
3. Fair Value Trail (Entry Optimization):
The Fair Value Trail is a zone-based component that helps users capture optimal entry points, such as when the market is overbought or oversold. By waiting for price retracements into the Fair Value Trail, traders can achieve better pricing and potentially maximize their profits. The Fair Value Trail is unique in the sense that it dynamically adjusts its width according to the market volatility so that the optimal entry area remains as relevant.
- This feature works in conjunction with the Trend Cipher by allowing users to wait for retracement before entering the trade, thus improving their risk-reward ratio.
4. Trend Spine (Range Detection and Filter):
The Trend Spine helps identify periods of price consolidation by flattening the price action into a rigid line. This helps traders avoid entering trades in choppy or directionless markets. The Trend Spine’s values remain unchanged during consolidations, alerting users when to refrain from trading due to a lack of trend direction.
- This feature integrates with other components, providing clearer signals for trading in trending markets while filtering out trades in ranging or consolidating markets.
5. Firmament Cloud (Reversal Zones):
The Firmament Cloud defines zones on the price chart that are considered extreme, indicating overbought or oversold conditions. Price reaching these zones suggests potential reversal points, giving traders additional confirmation to enter or exit trades. The separation of the upper and lower clouds as well of the width of each respective cloud are dynamically adjusted based on the aggressiveness of price movements coupled with user defined settings for some base parameters such as multipliers for separation and width.
- This component works well for traders using a mean-reversion strategy or those looking for early exits during overextended price movements.
Usage and Customization
The Smart Signals Assistant offers a flexible interface, making it simple to adjust settings such as indicator lengths, noise reduction factors, and display options. Key components, such as the Trend Cipher, Trend Bias, and Fair Value Trail, are highly customizable, allowing traders to create a unique trading system tailored to their specific needs. Tooltips accompany most inputs to help users quickly understand how to adjust the tool effectively.
Combining Components for Synergy
1. Trend Cipher and Trend Bias:
By combining the Trend Cipher with the Trend Bias, users receive both short-term and long-term trend confirmations. A bullish signal from the Trend Cipher, when aligned with an upward-trending Trend Bias, significantly enhances the likelihood of a profitable trade, minimizing the chances of acting on premature signals.
2. Fair Value Trail for Entry Optimization:
Rather than immediately acting on a Trend Cipher signal, users can wait for the price to enter the Fair Value Trail. This strategy ensures better entries at premium or discounted prices, maximizing potential returns.
3. Trend Spine for Range Detection:
The Trend Spine works alongside the Trend Cipher to keep traders out of consolidating markets. When the Trend Spine remains flat, it signals a ranging market, advising users to avoid trades during such periods.
4. Firmament Cloud for Reversal Points:
The Firmament Cloud identifies extreme market conditions, marking zones where traders should be cautious about entering trades. When combined with Trend Cipher signals, this component helps users pinpoint overbought or oversold markets, allowing for strategic entries and exits.
Conclusion
The Smart Signals Assistant is more than just a collection of individual indicators. It offers a comprehensive, multi-layered system that provides a deeper understanding of market dynamics, ranging from trend detection to reversal opportunities. The flexibility in customizing its various components allows traders to craft a strategy suited to their style, whether they prefer trend-following or mean-reversion methods. With this tool, traders can enhance decision-making, optimize entries and exits, and navigate both trending and ranging markets more effectively.
Sinc Bollinger BandsKaiser Windowed Sinc Bollinger Bands Indicator
The Kaiser Windowed Sinc Bollinger Bands indicator combines the advanced filtering capabilities of the Kaiser Windowed Sinc Moving Average with the volatility measurement of Bollinger Bands. This indicator represents a sophisticated approach to trend identification and volatility analysis in financial markets.
Core Components
At the heart of this indicator is the Kaiser Windowed Sinc Moving Average, which utilizes the sinc function as an ideal low-pass filter, windowed by the Kaiser function. This combination allows for precise control over the frequency response of the moving average, effectively separating trend from noise in price data.
The sinc function, representing an ideal low-pass filter, provides the foundation for the moving average calculation. By using the sinc function, analysts can independently control two critical parameters: the cutoff frequency and the number of samples used. The cutoff frequency determines which price movements are considered significant (low frequency) and which are treated as noise (high frequency). The number of samples influences the filter's accuracy and steepness, allowing for a more precise approximation of the ideal low-pass filter without altering its fundamental frequency response characteristics.
The Kaiser window is applied to the sinc function to create a practical, finite-length filter while minimizing unwanted oscillations in the frequency domain. The alpha parameter of the Kaiser window allows users to fine-tune the trade-off between the main-lobe width and side-lobe levels in the frequency response.
Bollinger Bands Implementation
Building upon the Kaiser Windowed Sinc Moving Average, this indicator adds Bollinger Bands to provide a measure of price volatility. The bands are calculated by adding and subtracting a multiple of the standard deviation from the moving average.
Advanced Centered Standard Deviation Calculation
A unique feature of this indicator is its specialized standard deviation calculation for the centered mode. This method employs the Kaiser window to create a smooth deviation that serves as an highly effective envelope, even though it's always based on past data.
The centered standard deviation calculation works as follows:
It determines the effective sample size of the Kaiser window.
The window size is then adjusted to reflect the target sample size.
The source data is offset in the calculation to allow for proper centering.
This approach results in a highly accurate and smooth volatility estimation. The centered standard deviation provides a more refined and responsive measure of price volatility compared to traditional methods, particularly useful for historical analysis and backtesting.
Operational Modes
The indicator offers two operational modes:
Non-Centered (Real-time) Mode: Uses half of the windowed sinc function and a traditional standard deviation calculation. This mode is suitable for real-time analysis and current market conditions.
Centered Mode: Utilizes the full windowed sinc function and the specialized Kaiser window-based standard deviation calculation. While this mode introduces a delay, it offers the most accurate trend and volatility identification for historical analysis.
Customizable Parameters
The Kaiser Windowed Sinc Bollinger Bands indicator provides several key parameters for customization:
Cutoff: Controls the filter's cutoff frequency, determining the divide between trends and noise.
Number of Samples: Sets the number of samples used in the FIR filter calculation, affecting the filter's accuracy and computational complexity.
Alpha: Influences the shape of the Kaiser window, allowing for fine-tuning of the filter's frequency response characteristics.
Standard Deviation Length: Determines the period over which volatility is calculated.
Multiplier: Sets the number of standard deviations used for the Bollinger Bands.
Centered Alpha: Specific to the centered mode, this parameter affects the Kaiser window used in the specialized standard deviation calculation.
Visualization Features
To enhance the analytical value of the indicator, several visualization options are included:
Gradient Coloring: Offers a range of color schemes to represent trend direction and strength for the moving average line.
Glow Effect: An optional visual enhancement for improved line visibility.
Background Fill: Highlights the area between the Bollinger Bands, aiding in volatility visualization.
Applications in Technical Analysis
The Kaiser Windowed Sinc Bollinger Bands indicator is particularly useful for:
Precise trend identification with reduced noise influence
Advanced volatility analysis, especially in the centered mode
Identifying potential overbought and oversold conditions
Recognizing periods of price consolidation and potential breakouts
Compared to traditional Bollinger Bands, this indicator offers superior frequency response characteristics in its moving average and a more refined volatility measurement, especially in centered mode. These features allow for a more nuanced analysis of price trends and volatility patterns across various market conditions and timeframes.
Conclusion
The Kaiser Windowed Sinc Bollinger Bands indicator represents a significant advancement in technical analysis tools. By combining the ideal low-pass filter characteristics of the sinc function, the practical benefits of Kaiser windowing, and an innovative approach to volatility measurement, this indicator provides traders and analysts with a sophisticated instrument for examining price trends and market volatility.
Its implementation in Pine Script contributes to the TradingView community by making advanced signal processing and statistical techniques accessible for experimentation and further development in technical analysis. This indicator serves not only as a practical tool for market analysis but also as an educational resource for those interested in the intersection of signal processing, statistics, and financial markets.

Prometheus Trend LinesPrometheus Trend lines is a tool that automatically plots support and resistance trend lines on your chart. These lines generally come out looking like triangles or wedges.
There are two ways that we do it, the first way we’ll cover is lookback period generated trend lines.
The two points for the lines are generated as follows, for a resistance line that is blue by default, the point furthest in the past is the highest high in the specified lookback period. 50 is the default, the point closest to the present is the current bar’s high. The opposite is true for support lines, the point furthest in the past is the lowest low, and the most present point is the current bar’s low.
The interval is created by ensuring after the lookback period is met to plot the lines, that period needs to pass again. That is so we can let the potential results of price breaking above or below the levels play out.
Lines will be plotted on the newest lookback period bar, after a period with no plot. What I mean is right after lines are plotted, users will have to wait for double the lookback period to get newer lines. So if you select 50 for your lookback value, after new lines are plotted, on the 100th bar after the new lines will be there. This is to avoid having a line on your chart change, we’d rather plot a line once, than plot it and keep changing it.
Each line is 50 bars long and all the distance in between them is 50 bars. The line is drawn simply with the shortest path from the back point to the more present one, this allows us to see breaks in the line and get a better idea of how strong the next move may be.
We see in this wedge on NASDAQ:TSLA that there were two false breaks before the price re-entered the wedge and continued falling. It could be interpreted as buyers did not have enough strength to get NASDAQ:TSLA out of a downtrend there.
We also offer an intra day line.
In this image captured with the bar replay feature we see the lines being generated with the high and low of the day, that is the method we use. Furthermore, a user may notice that the ends of the line are not at the newest bar. That is on purpose, we use the
barstate.islastconfirmedhistory
to ensure that we don’t change and plot too many lines at a given point. These two lines will reset every day as time changes and will auto use the current day high and low.
Users have the option to select a custom lookback period, as well as turn on or off the plots for either method of generating lines.
We encourage traders to not follow indicators blindly, none are 100% accurate. The lines generated are not guaranteed to be perfect support and resistance levels. We encourage the use of discretion. Please comment on any desired updates, all criticism is welcome!
Stock Strength IndexScript Title: Stock Strength Index made by Vishal R Janjire

Important parameter read before use this indicator
0. Zero line green means stock is in up trend and if it is red means down trending.
1. Zero line is green it means stocks is outperforming its index that is Nifty 50 ( but dont consider its results on nifty itself that is it will not work only on nifty 50)
2. Zero line is red it means stocks is underperforming its index that is Nifty 50
3. bubble is confirmation tool when it show green bubble on zero line it means on short time frame it want go up trending and vise versa
4. Always remember higher time frame is greater than chart time frame like day vs hour
Key Features:
5. Best suitable time when higher time frame is 15 minutes and chart time is 5 minute for intraday trading. for short swing use HTF 1 Day and chart time is 1 hour or 2 hour.
1. Relative Strength (RS) Analysis:
- Calculation: Measures the performance of the base symbol relative to a comparative symbol over a specified period.
- Visualization: Plots the RS value with color-coded lines to indicate bullish (green) or bearish (red) conditions based on crossovers. Users can toggle the RS color based on its value or trend direction.
- Trend Analysis: Displays a simple moving average (SMA) of RS to visualize trend strength and direction. The SMA’s color changes to indicate rising or falling trends.
2. Commodity Channel Index (CCI):
- Current Timeframe CCI: Calculates the CCI for the current timeframe to assess price momentum.
- Higher Timeframe CCI: Computes the CCI for a higher timeframe to provide a broader market perspective.
- Background Color: Highlights the chart background in green or red based on whether both current and higher timeframe CCIs are above or below zero, respectively.
3. Alerts:
- CCI Alerts: Set up alerts for key CCI crossovers, including when both CCIs are above or below zero, or when CCI crosses key levels (100 and -100) on either timeframe.
4. Trend Confirmation:
- Price Confirmation: Uses price and its moving average to identify bullish or bearish divergence, with visual bubbles plotted on the chart to confirm potential trade signals.
5. Customization Options:
- RS Parameters: Adjust settings for RS period, comparative symbol, and whether to display reference labels or the zero line.
- CCI Parameters: Configure CCI lengths for both current and higher timeframes and select the source of the CCI calculation.
Concepts Underlying Calculations:
- Relative Strength (RS): Measures the relative performance of the base symbol compared to another symbol, adjusted over a specified period to capture momentum and trend strength.
- Commodity Channel Index (CCI): Calculates the deviation of the price from its average to identify overbought or oversold conditions and potential reversal points.
- Simple Moving Average (SMA): Smooths the RS values to highlight trends and potential trend reversals.
This indicator is designed for traders seeking a comprehensive tool that combines multiple analytical methods into one cohesive system. It aims to offer a clearer view of market trends, strengths, and potential trade opportunities based on a blend of relative strength and momentum indicators.

LRS-Strategy: 200-EMA Buffer & Long/Short Signals LRS-Strategy: 200-EMA Buffer & Long/Short Signals
This indicator is designed to help traders implement the Leveraged Return Strategy (LRS) using the 200-day Exponential Moving Average (EMA) as a key trend-following signal. The indicator offers clear long and short signals by analyzing the price movements relative to the 200-day EMA, enhanced by customizable buffer zones for increased precision.
Key Features:
200-Day EMA: The main trend indicator. When the price is above the 200-day EMA, the market is considered in an uptrend, and when it is below, it indicates a downtrend.
Customizable Buffer Zones: Users can define a percentage buffer around the 200-day EMA (default is 3%). The upper and lower buffer zones help filter out noise and prevent premature signals.
Precise Long/Short Signals:
Long Signal: Triggered when the price moves from below the lower buffer zone, crosses the 200-day EMA, and then breaks above the upper buffer zone.
Short Signal: Triggered when the price moves from above the upper buffer zone, crosses the 200-day EMA, and then breaks below the lower buffer zone.
Alternating Signals: Ensures that a new signal (long or short) is only generated after the opposite signal has been triggered, preventing multiple signals of the same type without a reversal.
Clear Visual Aids: The indicator displays the 200-day EMA and buffer zones on the chart, along with buy (long) and sell (short) signals. This makes it easy to track trends and time entries/exits.
How to Use:
Long Entry: Look for the price to move below the lower buffer, cross the 200-day EMA from below, and then break out of the upper buffer to confirm a long signal.
Short Entry: Look for the price to move above the upper buffer, cross below the 200-day EMA, and then break below the lower buffer to confirm a short signal.
This indicator is perfect for traders who prefer a structured, trend-following approach, using clear rules to minimize noise and identify meaningful long or short opportunities.
Larry Connors %b Strategy (Bollinger Band)Larry Connors’ %b Strategy is a mean-reversion trading approach that uses Bollinger Bands to identify buy and sell signals based on the %b indicator. This strategy was developed by Larry Connors, a renowned trader and author known for his systematic, data-driven trading methods, particularly those focusing on short-term mean reversion.
The %b indicator measures the position of the current price relative to the Bollinger Bands, which are volatility bands placed above and below a moving average. The strategy specifically targets times when prices are oversold within a long-term uptrend and aims to capture rebounds by buying at relatively low points and selling at relatively high points.
Strategy Rules
The basic rules of the %b Strategy are:
1. Trend Confirmation: The closing price must be above the 200-day moving average. This filter ensures that trades are made in alignment with a longer-term uptrend, thereby avoiding trades against the primary market trend.
2. Oversold Conditions: The %b indicator must be below 0.2 for three consecutive days. The %b value below 0.2 indicates that the price is near the lower Bollinger Band, suggesting an oversold condition.
3. Entry Signal: Enter a long position at the close when conditions 1 and 2 are met.
4. Exit Signal: Exit the position when the %b value closes above 0.8, signaling an overbought condition where the price is near the upper Bollinger Band.
How the Strategy Works
This strategy operates on the premise of mean reversion, which suggests that extreme price movements will revert to the mean over time. By entering positions when the %b value indicates an oversold condition (below 0.2) in a confirmed uptrend, the strategy attempts to capture short-term price rebounds. The exit rule (when %b is above 0.8) aims to lock in profits once the price reaches an overbought condition, often near the upper Bollinger Band.
Who Was Larry Connors?
Larry Connors is a well-known figure in the world of financial markets and trading. He co-authored several influential trading books, including “Short-Term Trading Strategies That Work” and “High Probability ETF Trading.” Connors is recognized for his quantitative approach, focusing on systematic, rules-based strategies that leverage historical data to validate trading edges.
His work primarily revolves around short-term trading strategies, often using technical indicators like RSI (Relative Strength Index), Bollinger Bands, and moving averages. Connors’ methodologies have been widely adopted by traders seeking structured approaches to exploit short-term inefficiencies in the market.
Risks of the Strategy
While the %b Strategy can be effective, particularly in mean-reverting markets, it is not without risks:
1. Mean Reversion Assumption: The strategy is based on the assumption that prices will revert to the mean. In trending or sharply falling markets, this reversion may not occur, leading to sustained losses.
2. False Signals in Choppy Markets: In volatile or sideways markets, the strategy may generate multiple false signals, resulting in whipsaw trades that can erode capital through frequent small losses.
3. No Stop Loss: The basic implementation of the strategy does not include a stop loss, which increases the risk of holding losing trades longer than intended, especially if the market continues to move against the position.
4. Performance During Market Crashes: During major market downturns, the strategy’s buy signals could be triggered frequently as prices decline, compounding losses without the presence of a risk management mechanism.
Scientific References and Theoretical Basis
The %b Strategy relies on the concept of mean reversion, which has been extensively studied in finance literature. Studies by Avellaneda and Lee (2010) and Bouchaud et al. (2018) have demonstrated that mean-reverting strategies can be profitable in specific market environments, particularly when combined with volatility filters like Bollinger Bands. However, the same studies caution that such strategies are highly sensitive to market conditions and often perform poorly during periods of prolonged trends.
Bollinger Bands themselves were popularized by John Bollinger and are widely used to assess price volatility and detect potential overbought and oversold conditions. The %b value is a critical part of this analysis, as it standardizes the position of price relative to the bands, making it easier to compare conditions across different securities and time frames.
Conclusion
Larry Connors’ %b Strategy is a well-known mean-reversion technique that leverages Bollinger Bands to identify buying opportunities in uptrending markets when prices are temporarily oversold. While the strategy can be effective under the right conditions, traders should be aware of its limitations and risks, particularly in trending or highly volatile markets. Incorporating risk management techniques, such as stop losses, could help mitigate some of these risks, making the strategy more robust against adverse market conditions.
ORB - Alerts, VWAP and MACD Checks, Extended Fib Levels
ORB Range Alerter with Shading, VWAP Check, MACD Check, and Extended Fibonacci Levels for TP – Fully Customizable
This indicator is designed to give you a comprehensive analysis of the Opening Range Breakout (ORB) combined with advanced conditions based on VWAP and MACD indicators, along with Extended Fibonacci Levels for both long and short TP positions.
Key Features:
Opening Range Breakout (ORB):
Defines the opening range at the market open (9:30 AM by default) based on your chart timeframe and shades it for visibility.
The high and low of the first candle after the open are plotted on the chart, creating a breakout range that traders can use to identify potential long or short positions.
VWAP Condition (Optional):
This indicator includes the option to enforce the VWAP (Volume-Weighted Average Price) as a condition for entering trades.
- Longs will only trigger if the price is above VWAP (when enabled).
- Shorts will only trigger if the price is below VWAP (when enabled).
Customizable : You can enable or disable the VWAP condition through a simple checkbox in the indicator’s settings.
MACD Condition (Optional):
Includes an optional MACD (Moving Average Convergence Divergence) condition.
- Longs will only trigger if the MACD line is above 0 and the signal line, providing confirmation of bullish momentum.
- Shorts will only trigger if the MACD line is below 0 and the signal line, indicating bearish momentum.
Customizable : You can enable or disable the MACD condition through a checkbox in the indicator’s settings, allowing you to trade with or without the MACD confirmation.
Fibonacci Extensions for Profit Targets:
Automatically calculates Fibonacci extension levels based on the ORB range for TP levels.
These levels provide key areas for potential profit-taking or reversal points.
Fibonacci extensions are plotted only after a confirmed breakout, either long or short.
The extensions include 127.2%, 161.8%, 200%, 261.8%, 423.6%, and 685.4%, offering a comprehensive set of targets for different trading strategies.
Shading of ORB Range:
The ORB high and low are visually emphasized on the chart with a shaded area for easy identification.
The shading is semi-transparent to help keep your chart clean and easy to read.
Customizable Timeframe:
The ORB range is defined based on the time of day (default is 9:30 AM to 4:00 PM), but you can adjust the timeframe to suit different trading sessions or markets.
Alerts for Breakouts:
Built-in alerts notify you when price crosses above or below the ORB high or low, along with the optional VWAP and MACD conditions.
Alerts can be used to create automated notifications or even execute automated trades based on your chosen settings.
How to Use:
Long Trade Example: When the price crosses above the ORB high, VWAP is above the price, and MACD shows bullish momentum (if these conditions are enabled), a potential long entry is triggered. You can use the Fibonacci extensions for profit targets.
Short Trade Example: When the price crosses below the ORB low, VWAP is below the price, and MACD confirms bearish momentum (if these conditions are enabled), a short entry is triggered. Fibonacci levels for the short position can guide your exit strategy.
Flexibility: You can enable or disable both VWAP and MACD conditions based on your trading style. This flexibility allows the indicator to adapt to different market conditions and strategies.
Customization Options:
Enable/Disable VWAP Condition: Decide if you want to include VWAP as a trade filter.
Enable/Disable MACD Condition: Choose whether to require MACD as confirmation for trade entries.
Adjust ORB Timeframe: Customize the time range for defining the ORB based on the market you're trading.
Fibonacci Extensions: Visualize key profit targets using Fibonacci extensions, which are automatically calculated and displayed after a breakout.
Nifty scalping 3 minutesOverview:
The "Nifty Scalping 3 Minutes" strategy is a uniquely tailored trading system for Nifty Futures traders, with a clear focus on capital preservation, dynamic risk management, and high-probability trade entries. This strategy uses unique combination of standard technical indicators like Jurik Moving Average (JMA), Exponential Moving Average (EMA), and Bollinger Bands, but it truly stands out through its Price-Volume Spike Detection system—a unique mechanism designed to trigger trades only during periods of high momentum and market participation. The strategy also incorporates robust risk management, ensuring that traders minimize losses while maximizing profits. in complete back test range max drawdown is less than 1%
Scalping Approach and Requirements:
The strategy focuses on quick in and out trades, aiming to capture small, quick profits during periods of heightened market activity. For optimal performance, traders should have ₹2,00,000 or more in capital available per trade. The dynamic lot calculation and risk controls require this level of capital to function effectively.
Small, frequent trades are the focus, and the strategy is ideal for traders comfortable with high-frequency executions. Traders with insufficient capital or those not comfortable with frequent trades may find this strategy unsuitable.
Default Properties for Publication:
Initial Capital: ₹2,000,000
Lot Size: 25 contracts (adjusted dynamically based on available margin)
Stop-Loss: Risk per trade capped at 1% of equity.
Slippage and Commission: Realistic values are factored into the backtesting.
Key Feature: Price-Volume Spike Detection
1. Condition: Trades are executed only when there is a significant price spike confirmed by a volume spike. The candle width is calculated by multiplying the price change (difference between the candle's open and close) by the volume, and this result is compared to a 126-period average of both price and volume.
A trade is triggered when the current price-volume spike exceeds this average by a preset volume multiplier (default set at 3). This ensures that both the price change and volume are unusually strong compared to normal market behavior.
2. Reasoning: Many traders fail to incorporate the relationship between price movement and volume effectively. By using this Price-Volume Spike Detection mechanism, the strategy ensures that it only enters trades during periods of strong market momentum when both price and volume confirm a real market move, not just noise or small fluctuations.
The 126-period moving average of volume is chosen specifically because it represents a complete trading session on the 3-minute chart. This ensures that the volume spike is compared against a realistic baseline of daily activity, making the detection more robust and reliable.
The volume multiplier allows flexibility in determining the threshold for a significant spike, enabling users to fine-tune the strategy according to their risk tolerance and market conditions.
Trade Placement Logic:
1. Trend Confirmation with JMA and EMA:
Condition: The strategy will only consider entering a trade when JMA crosses above EMA for a long trade or JMA crosses below EMA for a short trade.
Reasoning: The JMA is used for its low lag and responsiveness, allowing it to capture early trends, while the EMA adds a level of confirmation by weighing recent price action more heavily. This dual confirmation ensures that trades are entered only when a solid trend is in place.
2. Bollinger Bands for Volatility Breakouts:
Condition: In addition to the JMA-EMA crossover, the price must break outside the Bollinger Bands—above the upper band for long trades, or below the lower band for short trades.
Reasoning: Bollinger Bands are a volatility indicator. By requiring a price breakout beyond the bands, the strategy ensures that trades are placed during periods of high volatility, avoiding low-momentum, sideways markets.
3. Volume and Price Confirmation (Price-Volume Spike Detection):
Condition: A trade is only triggered if the price-volume spike condition is met. This ensures that the market move is backed by strong volume and that the price change is significant relative to the recent average activity.
Reasoning: This condition filters out low-volume environments where price movements are more likely to reverse or stall. By waiting for a spike in both price and volume, the strategy ensures that it enters trades during high-momentum periods, where follow-through is more likely.
Exit Logic and Risk Management:
1. Stop-Loss (SL) Placement:
Condition: Upon entering a trade, an initial stop-loss is placed below the candle low for long trades or above the candle high for short trades. This is adjusted if the risk exceeds 1% of total capital.
Reasoning: The stop-loss is placed at a logical level that accounts for recent price action, ensuring that the trade is given room to develop while protecting capital from unexpected market reversals.
2. Profit Target and Partial Profit Booking:
Condition: The first profit target is set at 2.1x the initial risk for long trades, and 2.5x the initial risk for short trades.
Reasoning: The 2.1x risk-reward ratio for long trades provides a solid return while maintaining a conservative risk profile. For short trades, the strategy uses a higher 2.5x risk-reward ratio because market falls tend to be sharper and quicker than rises, allowing for larger profit targets to be reached more reliably.
Partial Profit Booking: Once the first target is hit, 60% of the position is closed to lock in profits. The remaining 40% is left to run with a trailing stop.
3. ATR-Based Trailing Stop:
Condition: Once the first target is hit, the ATR (Average True Range) trailing stop is applied to the remaining position. This dynamically adjusts the stop-loss as the trade moves in a favorable direction.
Reasoning: The trailing stop allows the trade to capture further gains if the trend continues, while protecting profits if the momentum weakens. The ATR ensures that the stop adjusts according to the market's current volatility, providing flexibility and protection.
4. Time-Based Exit:
Condition: If a trade is still open by 3:20 PM, it is automatically closed to avoid end-of-day volatility.
Reasoning: The time-based exit ensures that trades are not held into the often-volatile closing minutes of the market, reducing the risk of unexpected price swings.
Capital and Risk Management:
1. Lot Size Calculation:
Condition: The strategy calculates the number of lots dynamically based on the available margin. It uses only 10% of total equity for each trade, and ensures that the maximum risk per trade does not exceed 1% of total capital.
Reasoning: This ensures that traders are not over-leveraged and that the risk is controlled for each trade. Capital protection is at the core of the strategy, ensuring that even during adverse market conditions, the trader’s capital is preserved.
2. Stop-Loss Protection:
Condition: The stop-loss is designed to ensure that no more than 1% of capital is at risk in any trade.
Reasoning: By limiting risk exposure, the strategy focuses on long-term capital preservation while still allowing for profitable trades in favorable market conditions.
STBT/BTST Facilitation:
1. Feature: The strategy allows traders the option to hold positions overnight, facilitating STBT (Sell Today Buy Tomorrow) and BTST (Buy Today Sell Tomorrow) trades.
Reasoning: Backtests show that holding positions overnight when all trade conditions are still valid can lead to beneficial outcomes. This feature allows traders to take advantage of overnight market movements, providing flexibility beyond intraday trades.
Why This Strategy Stands Out:
Price-Volume Spike Detection: Unlike traditional strategies, this one uniquely focuses on Price-Volume Spike Detection to filter out low-probability trades. By ensuring that both price and volume spikes are present, the strategy guarantees that trades are placed only when there is significant market momentum.
Risk Management with Capital Protection: The strategy strictly limits the risk per trade to 1% of capital, ensuring long-term capital preservation. This is especially important for traders who wish to avoid large drawdowns and prefer a sustainable approach to trading.
2.5x Risk-Reward for Short Trades: Recognizing the sharpness of market declines, the strategy employs a 2.5x risk-reward ratio for short trades, maximizing profits during bearish trends.
Dynamic Exit Strategy: With partial profit booking and ATR-based trailing stops, the strategy is designed to capture gains efficiently while protecting capital through dynamic exit conditions.
Summary of Execution:
Entry: Triggered when JMA crosses EMA, combined with Bollinger Band breakouts and Price-Volume Spike Detection.
Capital Management: Trades are executed with 10% of available capital, and the risk per trade is capped at 1%.
Exit: Trades exit when stop-loss, ATR trailing stop, or time-based exit conditions are met.
Profit Booking: 60% of the position is closed at the first target, with the remainder trailed using an ATR-based stop.
Bunker Zone ProtectionBunker Zone Protection (BZP) Indicator Description:
The Bunker Zone Protection (BZP) is a dynamic protection zone indicator designed for traders who want to identify key areas of support and resistance based on price action and the exponential moving average (EMA). This indicator highlights zones where prices are likely to reverse, find support, or meet resistance, depending on the relationship between the current price and the EMA.
Key Features:
Dynamic Protection Zones:
The BZP identifies protection zones based on market trend dynamics. It calculates upper and lower bands of protection using market highs and lows, adjusting these levels according to the prevailing trend.
Exponential Moving Average (EMA):
A customizable EMA is used to filter the market's current trend. If the price is above the EMA, it highlights support zones (demand), while if the price is below the EMA, resistance zones (supply) are displayed.
Visual Zone Highlighting:
The protection zones are visually represented on the chart, with customizable colors for upper (resistance) and lower (support) zones, making it easy to quickly assess market behavior.

How to Use:
Trade Reversals: Use the BZP to identify areas where price may potentially reverse. When the price approaches the upper or lower bounds of the protection zone, it could signal an imminent reversal.
Filter Out False Signals: The Bunker Zone Protection uses an EMA to filter the trend, helping to eliminate false signals and focus on significant market zones.
Parameters:
Range Input: Determines the price source for calculations (default: close price).
EMA Length: Defines the length of the EMA used to filter trends (default: 30).
Zone Toggle: Allows you to enable or disable the visual display of protection zones.
The BZP is a powerful tool for any trader looking to enhance decision-making based on strategic price zones, making it easier to read market trends and identify potential reversal points
Grid Bot Parabolic [xxattaxx]🟩 The Grid Bot Parabolic, a continuation of the Grid Bot Simulator Series , enhances traditional gridbot theory by employing a dynamic parabolic curve to visualize potential support and resistance levels. This adaptability is particularly useful in volatile or trending markets, enabling traders to explore grid-based strategies and gain deeper market insights. The grids are divided into customizable trade zones that trigger signals as prices move into new zones, empowering traders to gain deeper insights into market dynamics and potential turning points.
While traditional grid bots excel in ranging markets, the Grid Bot Parabolic’s introduction of acceleration and curvature adds new dimensions, enabling its use in trending markets as well. It can function as a traditional grid bot with horizontal lines, a tilted grid bot with linear slopes, or a fully parabolic grid with curves. This dynamic nature allows the indicator to adapt to various market conditions, providing traders with a versatile tool for visualizing dynamic support and resistance levels.
🔑 KEY FEATURES 🔑
Adaptable Grid Structures (Horizontal, Linear, Curved)

📐 GRID STRUCTURES 📐
Beyond its core parabolic functionality, the Parabolic Grid Bot offers a range of grid configurations to suit different market conditions and trading preferences. By adjusting the "Acceleration" and "Curvature" parameters, you can transform the grid's structure:
Parabolic Grids
Setting both acceleration and curvature to non-zero values results in a parabolic grid.This configuration can be particularly useful for visualizing potential turning points and trend reversals. Example: Accel = 10, Curve = -10)
Linear Grids
With a non-zero acceleration and zero curvature, the grid tilts to represent a linear trend, aiding in identifying potential support and resistance levels during trending phases. Example: Accel =1.75, Curve = 0
Horizontal Grids
When both acceleration and curvature are set to zero, the indicator reverts to a traditional grid bot with horizontal lines, suitable for ranging markets. Example: Accel=0, Curve=0

🤖 ALGORITHM AND CALCULATION 🤖
The Parabolic Function
At the core of the Parabolic Grid Bot lies the parabolic function, which calculates a dynamic curve that adapts to price action over time. This curve serves as the foundation for visualizing potential support and resistance levels.
The shape and behavior of the parabola are influenced by three key user-defined parameters:
Acceleration: This parameter controls the rate of change of the curve's slope, influencing its tilt or steepness. A higher acceleration value results in a more pronounced tilt, while a lower value leads to a gentler slope. This applies to both curved and linear grid configurations.
Curvature: This parameter introduces and controls the curvature or bend of the grid. A higher curvature value results in a more pronounced parabolic shape, while a lower value leads to a flatter curve or even a straight line (when set to zero).
Sensitivity: This setting fine-tunes the overall responsiveness of the grid, influencing how strongly the Acceleration and Curvature parameters affect its shape. Increasing sensitivity amplifies the impact of these parameters, making the grid more adaptable to price changes but potentially leading to more frequent adjustments. Decreasing sensitivity reduces their impact, resulting in a more stable grid structure with fewer adjustments. It may be necessary to adjust Sensitivity when switching between different assets or timeframes to ensure optimal scaling and responsiveness.
The parabolic function combines these parameters to generate a curve that visually represents the potential path of price movement. By understanding how these inputs influence the parabola's shape and behavior, traders can gain valuable insights into potential support and resistance areas, aiding in their decision-making process.
Sentiment
The Parabolic Grid Bot incorporates sentiment to enhance signal generation. The "Sentiment" input allows you to either:
Manually specify the market sentiment: Choose between 'Long' (bullish), 'Short' (bearish), or 'Neutral'.
Let the script determine sentiment based on the slope of the parabolic curve: If 'Slope' is selected, the sentiment will be considered 'Long' when the curve is sloping upwards, 'Short' when it's sloping downwards, and 'Neutral' when it's flat.
Buy and Sell Signals
The Parabolic Grid Bot generates buy and sell signals based on the interaction between the price and the grid levels.
Trigger: The "Trigger" input determines which part of the candlestick is used to trigger a signal (wick, close, midpoint, or SWMA).
Confirmation: The "Confirm" input specifies how a signal is confirmed ('Reverse' or 'Touch').
Zones: The number of "Buy Zones" and "Sell Zones" determines the areas on the grid where buy and sell signals can be generated.
When the trigger condition is met within a buy zone and the confirmation criteria are satisfied, a buy signal is generated. Similarly, a sell signal is generated when the trigger and confirmation occur within a sell zone.
Secondary Signals
Secondary signals are generated when a regular buy or sell signal contradicts the prevailing sentiment. For example:
A buy signal in a bearish market (Sentiment = 'Short') would be considered a "secondary buy" signal.
A sell signal in a bullish market (Sentiment = 'Long') would be considered a "secondary sell" signal.
These secondary signals are visually represented on the chart using hollow triangles, differentiating them from regular signals (filled triangles).
While they can be interpreted as potential contrarian trade opportunities, secondary signals can also serve other purposes within a grid trading strategy:
Exit Signals: A secondary signal can suggest a potential shift in market sentiment or a weakening trend. This could be a cue to consider exiting an existing position, even if it's currently profitable, to lock in gains before a potential reversal
Risk Management: In a strong trend, secondary signals might offer opportunities for cautious counter-trend trades with controlled risk. These trades could utilize smaller position sizes or tighter stop-losses to manage potential downside if the main trend continues
Dollar-Cost Averaging (DCA): During a prolonged trend, the parabolic curve might generate multiple secondary signals in the opposite direction. These signals could be used to implement a DCA strategy, gradually accumulating a position at potentially favorable prices as the market retraces or consolidates within the larger trend
Secondary signals should be interpreted with caution and considered in conjunction with other technical indicators and market context. They provide additional insights into potential market reversals or consolidation phases within a broader trend, aiding in adapting your grid trading strategy to the evolving market dynamics.
Examples
Trigger=Wick, Confirm=Touch. Signals are generated when the wick touches the next gridline.
Trigger=Close, Confirm=Touch. Signals require the close to touch the next gridline.
Trigger=SWMA, Confirm=Reverse. Signals are triggered when the Symmetrically Weighted Moving Average reverse crosses the next gridline.
🧠THEORY AND RATIONALE 🧠
The innovative approach of the Parabolic Grid Bot can be better understood by first examining the limitations of traditional grid trading strategies and exploring how this indicator addresses them by incorporating principles of market cycles and dynamic price behavior
Traditional Grid Bots: One-Dimensional and Static
Traditional grid bots operate on a simple premise: they divide the price chart into a series of equally spaced horizontal lines, creating a grid of trading zones. These bots excel in ranging markets where prices oscillate within a defined range. Buy and sell orders are placed at these grid levels, aiming to profit from mean reversion as prices bounce between the support and resistance zones.
However, traditional grid bots face challenges in trending markets. As the market moves in one direction, the bot continues to place orders in that direction, leading to a stacking of positions. If the market eventually reverses, these stacked trades can be profitable, amplifying gains. But the risk lies in the potential for the market to continue trending, leaving the trader with a series of losing trades on the wrong side of the market
The Parabolic Grid Bot: Adding Dimensions
The Parabolic Grid Bot addresses the limitations of traditional grid bots by introducing two additional dimensions:
Acceleration (Second Dimension): This parameter introduces a second dimension to the grid, allowing it to tilt upwards or downwards to align with the prevailing market trend. A positive acceleration creates an upward-sloping grid, suitable for uptrends, while a negative acceleration results in a downward-sloping grid, ideal for downtrends. The magnitude of acceleration controls the steepness of the tilt, enabling you to fine-tune the grid's responsiveness to the trend's strength
Curvature (Third Dimension): This parameter adds a third dimension to the grid by introducing a parabolic curve. The curve's shape, ranging from gentle bends to sharp turns, is controlled by the curvature value. This flexibility allows the grid to closely mirror the market's evolving structure, potentially identifying turning points and trend reversals.
Mean Reversion in Trending Markets
Even in trending markets, the Parabolic Grid Bot can help identify opportunities for mean reversion strategies. While the grid may be tilted to reflect the trend, the buy and sell zones can capture short-term price oscillations or consolidations within the broader trend. This allows traders to potentially pinpoint entry and exit points based on temporary pullbacks or reversals.
Visualize and Adapt
The Parabolic Grid Bot acts as a visual aid, enhancing your understanding of market dynamics. It allows you to "see the curve" by adapting the grid to the market's patterns. If the market shows a parabolic shape, like an upward curve followed by a peak and a downward turn (similar to a head and shoulders pattern), adjust the Accel and Curve to match. This highlights potential areas of interest for further analysis.
Beyond Straight Lines: Visualizing Market Cycle
Traditional technical analysis often employs straight lines, such as trend lines and support/resistance levels, to interpret market movements. However, many analysts, including Brian Millard, contend that these lines can be misleading. They propose that what might appear as a straight line could represent just a small part of a larger curve or cycle that's not fully visible on the chart.
Markets are inherently cyclical, marked by phases of expansion, contraction, and reversal. The Parabolic Grid Bot acknowledges this cyclical behavior by offering a dynamic, curved grid that adapts to these shifts. This approach helps traders move beyond the limitations of straight lines and visualize potential support and resistance levels in a way that better reflects the market's true nature
By capturing these cyclical patterns, whether subtle or pronounced, the Parabolic Grid Bot offers a nuanced understanding of market dynamics, potentially leading to more accurate interpretations of price action and informed trading decisions.
⚠️ DISCLAIMER⚠️
This indicator utilizes a parabolic curve fitting approach to visualize potential support and resistance levels. The mathematical formulas employed have been designed with adaptability and scalability in mind, aiming to accommodate various assets and price ranges. While the resulting curves may visually resemble parabolas, it's important to note that they might not strictly adhere to the precise mathematical definition of a parabola.
The indicator's calculations have been tested and generally produce reliable results. However, no guarantees are made regarding their absolute mathematical accuracy. Traders are encouraged to use this tool as part of their broader analysis and decision-making process, combining it with other technical indicators and market context.
Please remember that trading involves inherent risks, and past performance is not indicative of future results. It is always advisable to conduct your own research and exercise prudent risk management before making any trading decisions.

COMBINED EMA & SMA + DOUBLE DEMA, $TOTAL 1W / 5D -- Ruslan CRYPTOCAP:TOTAL
This Pine Script indicator, **"EMAS"**, provides an enhanced visualization of multiple types of moving averages, including both **Exponential Moving Averages (EMA)**, **Simple Moving Averages (SMA)**, and **Double Exponential Moving Averages (DEMA)**. It allows the user to observe the relationship between these different types of moving averages and apply regime-based coloring to price bars based on the comparison between the EMAs and DEMAs.
#### Key Features:
1. **EMA & SMA:**
- **EMA (Exponential Moving Average):** Calculated using a customizable lookback period (default 17), the EMA places greater weight on more recent prices, making it react faster to price changes.
- **SMA (Simple Moving Average):** Uses an equal-weighted average over a customizable lookback period (default 14), providing a slower-moving average compared to the EMA.
2. **DEMA (Double Exponential Moving Average):**
- Two separate DEMA lines are plotted using different lookback periods (default 2 and 14). The DEMA is a smoother and faster-responding version of the EMA, intended to reduce lag while retaining trend-following characteristics.
3. **Combined Signals:**
- The script calculates ratios between EMA/SMA (`comb`) and DEMA1/DEMA2 (`combd`) to generate a **regime-based bar coloring system**:
- If `combd > comb`: The bars are colored **green**, indicating that DEMAs are outperforming the EMAs, potentially signaling a stronger trend or momentum.
- If `comb > combd`: The bars are colored **red**, suggesting that the EMAs are dominant, which may indicate a different phase of the market.
4. **Signal SMA:**
- A 21-period **SMA** is plotted as a general trend-following signal. It provides a broader perspective on the current price trend, helping to smooth out short-term fluctuations.
5. **Customizable Options:**
- **"Show MAs?"**: The user has the option to toggle the display of the EMA, SMA, and DEMA lines on or off.
- **Custom Period Inputs**: Each type of moving average can have its period length customized via the input settings for better adaptability to different market conditions.
#### How to Use the Indicator:
- **Trend Following**:
The **EMA, SMA, and DEMA** values can help you determine the direction of the trend. When the EMA is above the SMA, it could indicate a stronger, more recent upward momentum. Similarly, DEMA comparisons provide smoother and faster trend signals.
- **Bar Coloring Regime**:
The **bar color** gives a quick visual cue of the regime:
- **Green bars** suggest that DEMAs are indicating stronger bullish or bearish signals compared to the EMAs.
- **Red bars** imply the opposite, where EMAs may be showing stronger signals, but possibly with more noise or lag.
- **Signal SMA**:
The **21-period SMA** line can be used as a simple trend indicator. When the price is above this line, it could signify an uptrend, while price movement below the line might indicate a downtrend.
#### Custom Inputs:
- **EMA Length**: Default is 17, but can be adjusted to fit your trading style.
- **SMA Length**: Default is 14.
- **DEMA Lengths**: Two customizable inputs for DEMA (default 2 and 14).
- **Source Selection**: You can choose which price source (close, open, high, low, etc.) to use for each calculation (default is the closing price).
#### Conclusion:
This indicator is useful for traders who wish to blend **trend-following strategies** (using EMA, SMA, and DEMA) with **visual regime indicators** (bar coloring). It is highly customizable, allowing traders to adjust settings based on their market approach. The combination of EMAs and DEMAs provides a nuanced view of price dynamics, potentially leading to better-informed trading decisions.
VWAP and MA Crossover SignalsDescription: The VWAP and 20 MA Crossover Indicator is a powerful trading tool designed to capitalize on trend reversals and momentum shifts. This indicator overlays two key technical analysis tools on the price chart: the Volume Weighted Average Price (VWAP) and the 20-period Moving Average (MA).
Functionality:
VWAP: Represents the average price a security has traded at throughout the day, based on volume and price. It is a measure of the market's trend and trading volume.
20 MA: Offers a smoothed average of the closing prices over the last 20 periods, providing a glimpse of the underlying trend.
Signals:
Buy Signal: Generated when the VWAP crosses above the 20-period MA, suggesting an upward momentum and a potential bullish trend reversal.
Sell Signal: This occurs when the VWAP crosses below the 20-period MA, indicating a downward momentum and a potential bearish trend reversal.
Usage: This indicator is ideal for traders focusing on intraday and swing trading strategies, providing clear visual cues for entry and exit points based on the interaction between VWAP and the 20 MA. By identifying key crossover points, traders can make informed decisions about potential bullish or bearish movements in the market.
Application: To use this indicator, simply add it to your TradingView chart setup. The buy and sell signals will be displayed directly on the chart, allowing for easy interpretation and quick action. Adjust the settings to fit your specific trading strategy or market conditions.
Prometheus StochasticThe Stochastic indicator is a popular indicator developed in the 1950s. It is designed to identify overbought and oversold scenarios on different assets. A value above 80 is considered overbought and a value below 20 is considered oversold.
The formula is as follows:
%k = ((Close - Low_i) / (High_i / Low_i)) * 100
Low_i and High_i represent the lowest low and highest high of the selected period.
The Prometheus version takes a slightly different approach:
%k = ((High - Lowest_Close_i) / (High_i / Low_i)) * 100
Using the Current High minus the Lowest Close provides us with a more robust range that can be slightly more sensitive to moves and provide a different perspective.
Code:
stoch_func(src_close, src_high, src_low, length) =>
100 * (src_high - ta.lowest(src_close, length)) / (ta.highest(src_high, length) - ta.lowest(src_low, length))
This is the function that returns our Stochastic indicator.
What period do we use for the calculation? Let Prometheus handle that, we utilize a Sum of Squared Error calculation to find what lookback values can be most useful for a trader. How we do it is we calculate a Simple Moving Average or SMA and the indicator using a lot of different bars back values. Then if there is an event, characterized by the indicator crossing above 80 or below 20, we subtract the close by the SMA and square it. If there is no event we return a big value, we want the error to be as small as possible. Because we loop over every value for bars back, we get the value with the smallest error. We also do this for the smoothing values.
// Function to calculate SSE for a given combination of N, K, and D
sse_calc(_N, _K, _D) =>
SMA = ta.sma(close, _N)
sf = stoch_func(close, high, low, _N)
k = ta.sma(sf, _K)
d = ta.sma(k, _D)
var float error = na
if ta.crossover(d, 80) or ta.crossunder(d, 20)
error := math.pow(close - SMA, 2)
else
error := 999999999999999999999999999999999999999
error
var int best_N = na
var int best_K = na
var int best_D = na
var float min_SSE = na
// Loop through all combinations of N, K, and D
for N in N_range
for K in K_range
for D in D_range
sse = sse_calc(N, K, D)
if (na(min_SSE) or sse < min_SSE)
min_SSE := sse
best_N := N
best_K := K
best_D := D
int N_opt = na
int K_opt = na
int D_opt = na
if c_lkb_bool == false
N_opt := best_N
K_opt := best_K
D_opt := best_D
This is the section where the best lookback values are calculated.
We provide the option to use this self optimizer or to use your own lookback values.
Here is an example on the daily AMEX:SPY chart. The top Stochastic is the value with the SSE calculation, the bottom is with a fixed 14, 1, 3 input values. We see in the candles with boxes where some potential differences and trades may be.
This is another comparison of the SSE functionality and the fixed lookbacks on the NYSE:PLTR 1 day chart.
Differences may be more apparent on lower time frame charts.
We encourage traders to not follow indicators blindly, none are 100% accurate. SSE does not guarantee that the values generated will be the best for a given moment in time. Please comment on any desired updates, all criticism is welcome!
