RSI Divergence (Nikko)RSI Divergence by Nikko
🧠 RSI Divergence Detector — Nikko Edition This script is an enhanced RSI Divergence detector built with Pine Script v6, modified for better visuals and practical usability. It uses linear regression to detect bullish and bearish divergences between the RSI and price action — one of the most reliable early signals in technical analysis.
✅ Improvements from the Original:
- Clean divergence lines using regression fitting.
- Optional label display to reduce clutter (Display Labels toggle).
- Adjustable line thickness (Display Line Width).
- A subtle heatmap background to highlight RSI overbought/oversold zones.
- Uses max accuracy with high calc_bars_count and custom extrapolation window.
🔍 How It Works: The script applies linear regression (least squares method) on both RSI data, and Price (close) data.
It then compares the direction of RSI vs. direction of Price over a set length. If price is making higher highs while RSI makes lower highs, it's a bearish divergence. If price is making lower lows while RSI makes higher lows, it's a bullish divergence. Additional filters (e.g., momentum and slope thresholds) are used to validate only strong divergences.
🔧 Input Parameters: RSI Length: The RSI period (default: 14). RSI Divergence Length: The lookback period for regression (default: 25). Source: Which price data to calculate RSI from (default: close). Display Labels: Show/hide “Bullish” or “Bearish” labels on the chart. Display Line Width: Adjusts how thick the plotted divergence lines appear.
📣 Alerts: Alerts are built-in for both RSI Buy (bullish divergence) and RSI Sell (bearish divergence) so you can use it in automation or notifications.
🚀 Personal Note: I’ve been using this script daily in my own trading, which is why I took time to improve both the logic and visual clarity. If you want a divergence tool that doesn't clutter your chart but gives strong signals, this might be what you're looking for.

📊 RSI Multi-Timeframe Dashboard by giua64)### Summary
This is an advanced dashboard that provides a comprehensive overview of market strength and momentum, based on the Relative Strength Index (RSI) analyzed across 6 different timeframes simultaneously (from 5 minutes to the daily chart).
The purpose of this script is to offer traders an immediate and easy-to-read summary of market conditions, helping to identify the prevailing trend direction, overbought/oversold levels, and potential reversals through divergence detection. All of this is available in a single panel, eliminating the need to switch timeframes on your main chart.
### Key Features
* **Multi-Timeframe Analysis:** Simultaneously monitors the 5m, 15m, 30m, 1H, 4H, and Daily timeframes.
* **Scoring System:** Each timeframe is assigned a score based on multiple RSI conditions (e.g., above/below 50, overbought/oversold status, direction) to quantify bullish or bearish strength.
* **Aggregated Signal:** The dashboard calculates a total percentage score and provides a clear summary signal: **LONG**, **SHORT**, or **WAIT**.
* **Divergence Detection:** Automatically identifies Bullish and Bearish divergences between price and RSI for each timeframe.
* **Non-Repainting Option:** In the settings, you can choose to base calculations on the close of the previous candle (`Use RSI on Closed Candle`). This ensures that past signals (like status and score) do not change, providing more reliable data for analysis.
* **Fully Customizable:** Users can modify the RSI period, overbought/oversold thresholds, divergence detection settings, and the appearance of the table.
### How to Read the Dashboard
The table consists of 6 columns, each providing specific information:
* **% (Total Score):**
* **Header:** Shows the overall strength as a percentage. A positive value indicates bullish momentum, while a negative value indicates bearish momentum. The background color changes based on intensity.
* **Rows:** Displays the numerical score for the individual timeframe.
* **RSI:**
* **Header:** The background color indicates the average of all RSI values. Green if the average is > 50, Red if < 50.
* **Rows:** Shows the real-time RSI value for that timeframe.
* **Signal (Status):**
* **Header:** This is the final operational signal. It turns **🟢 LONG** when bullish strength is high, **🔴 SHORT** when bearish strength is high, and **⚪ WAIT** in neutral conditions.
* **Rows:** Describes the RSI status for that timeframe (e.g., Bullish, Bearish, Overbought, Oversold).
* **Dir (Direction):**
* **Header:** Displays an arrow representing the majority direction across all timeframes.
* **Rows:** Shows the instantaneous direction of the RSI (↗️ for rising, ↘️ for falling).
* **Diverg (Divergence):**
* Indicates if a bullish (`🟢 Bull`) or bearish (`🔴 Bear`) divergence has been detected on that timeframe.
* **TF (Timeframe):**
* Indicates the reference timeframe for that row.
### Advantages and Practical Use
This tool was created to solve a common problem: the need to analyze multiple charts to understand the bigger picture. With this dashboard, you can:
1. **Confirm a Trend:** A predominance of green and a "LONG" signal provides strong confirmation of bullish sentiment.
2. **Identify Weakness:** Red signals on higher timeframes can warn of an impending loss of momentum.
3. **Spot Turning Points:** A divergence on a major timeframe can signal an excellent reversal opportunity.
### Originality and Acknowledgements
This script is an original work, written from scratch by giua64. The idea was to create a comprehensive and visually intuitive tool for RSI analysis.

Adaptive Cycle Oscillator with EMADescription of the Adaptive Cycle Oscillator with EMA Pine Script
This Pine Script, titled "Adaptive Cycle Oscillator with EMA", is a custom technical indicator designed for TradingView to help traders analyze market cycles and identify potential buy or sell opportunities. It combines an Adaptive Cycle Oscillator (ACO) with multiple Exponential Moving Averages (EMAs), displayed as colorful, wavy lines, and includes features like buy/sell signals and divergence detection. Below is a beginner-friendly explanation of how the script works, adhering to TradingView's Script Publishing Rules.
What This Indicator Does
The Adaptive Cycle Oscillator with EMA helps you:
Visualize market cycles using an oscillator that adapts to price movements.
Track trends with seven EMAs of different lengths, plotted as a rainbow of wavy lines.
Identify potential buy or sell signals when the oscillator crosses predefined thresholds.
Spot divergences between the oscillator and price to anticipate reversals.
Use customizable settings to adjust the indicator to your trading style.
Note: This is a technical analysis tool and does not guarantee profits. Always combine it with other analysis methods and practice risk management.
Step-by-Step Explanation for New Users
1. Understanding the Indicator
Adaptive Cycle Oscillator (ACO): The ACO analyzes price data (based on high, low, and close prices, or HLC3) to detect market cycles. It smooths price movements to create an oscillator that swings between overbought and oversold levels.
EMAs: Seven EMAs of different lengths are applied to the ACO and scaled based on the market's dominant cycle. These EMAs are plotted as colorful, wavy lines to show trend direction.
Buy/Sell Signals: The script generates signals when the ACO crosses above or below user-defined thresholds, indicating potential entry or exit points.
Divergence Detection: The script identifies bullish or bearish divergences between the ACO and the fastest EMA, which may signal potential reversals.
Visual Style: The indicator uses a rainbow of seven colors (red, orange, yellow, green, blue, indigo, violet) for the EMAs, with wavy lines for a unique visual effect. Static levels (zero, overbought, oversold) are also wavy for consistency.
2. How to Add the Indicator to Your Chart
Open TradingView and load the chart of any asset (e.g., stock, forex, crypto).
Click on the Indicators button at the top of the chart.
Search for "Adaptive Cycle Oscillator with EMA" (or paste the script into TradingView’s Pine Editor if you have access to it).
Click to add the indicator to your chart. It will appear in a separate panel below the price chart.
3. Customizing the Indicator
The script offers several input options to tailor it to your needs:
Base Cycle Length (Default: 20): Sets the initial period for calculating the dominant cycle. Higher values make the indicator slower; lower values make it more sensitive.
Alpha Smoothing (Default: 0.07): Controls how much the ACO smooths price data. Smaller values produce smoother results.
Show Buy/Sell Signals (Default: True): Toggle to display green triangles (buy) and red triangles (sell) on the chart.
Threshold (Default: 0.0): Defines overbought (above threshold) and oversold (below threshold) levels. Adjust to widen or narrow signal zones.
EMA Base Length (Default: 10): Sets the starting length for the fastest EMA. Other EMAs are incrementally longer (12, 14, 16, etc.).
Divergence Lookback (Default: 14): Determines how far back the script looks to detect divergences.
To adjust these:
Right-click the indicator on your chart and select Settings.
Modify the inputs in the pop-up window.
Click OK to apply changes.
4. Reading the Indicator
Oscillator and EMAs: The ACO and seven EMAs are plotted in a separate panel. The EMAs (colored lines) move in a wavy pattern:
Red (fastest) to Violet (slowest) represent different response speeds.
When the faster EMAs (e.g., red, orange) are above slower ones (e.g., blue, violet), it suggests bullish momentum, and vice versa.
Zero Line: A gray wavy line at zero acts as a neutral level. The ACO above zero indicates bullish conditions; below zero indicates bearish conditions.
Overbought/Oversold Lines: Red (overbought) and green (oversold) wavy lines mark threshold levels. Extreme ACO values near these lines may suggest reversals.
Buy/Sell Signals:
Green Triangle (Bottom): Appears when the ACO crosses above the oversold threshold, suggesting a potential buy.
Red Triangle (Top): Appears when the ACO crosses below the overbought threshold, suggesting a potential sell.
Divergences:
Green Triangle (Bottom): Indicates a bullish divergence (price makes a lower low, but the EMA makes a higher low), hinting at a potential upward reversal.
Red Triangle (Top): Indicates a bearish divergence (price makes a higher high, but the EMA makes a lower high), hinting at a potential downward reversal.
5. Using Alerts
You can set alerts for key events:
Right-click the indicator and select Add Alert.
Choose a condition (e.g., "ACO Buy Signal", "Bullish Divergence").
Configure the alert settings (e.g., notify via email, app, or pop-up).
Click Create to activate the alert.
Available alert conditions:
ACO Buy Signal: When the ACO crosses above the oversold threshold.
ACO Sell Signal: When the ACO crosses below the overbought threshold.
Bullish Divergence: When a potential upward reversal is detected.
Bearish Divergence: When a potential downward reversal is detected.
6. Tips for Using the Indicator
Combine with Other Tools: Use the indicator alongside support/resistance levels, candlestick patterns, or other indicators (e.g., RSI, MACD) for confirmation.
Test on Different Timeframes: The indicator works on any timeframe (e.g., 1-minute, daily). Shorter timeframes may produce more signals but with more noise.
Practice Risk Management: Never rely solely on this indicator. Set stop-losses and position sizes to manage risk.
Backtest First: Use TradingView’s Strategy Tester (if you convert the script to a strategy) to evaluate performance on historical data.

🟡 Multi-Timeframe Trends
➤ This section displays the trend direction (bullish, bearish, or neutral) across 15-minute, 1-hour, 4-hour, and Daily timeframes, providing multi-timeframe market context. Timeframes lower than the one currently selected will show "N/A."
➤It utilizes fast and slow Exponential Moving Averages (EMAs) for each timeframe:
15m: Fast EMA 42, Slow EMA 170
1h: Fast EMA 40, Slow EMA 100
4h: Fast EMA 36, Slow EMA 107
Daily: Fast EMA 20, Slow EMA 60
🟡 Smart Flow & RVOL
➤ This section displays "Buying Pressure" or "Selling Pressure" signals based on indicator confluence, alongside volume activity ("High Activity," "Normal Activity," or "Low Activity").
➤ Smart Flow combines Chaikin Money Flow (CMF) and Money Flow Index (MFI) to detect buying/selling pressure. CMF measures money flow based on price position within the high-low range, while MFI analyzes money flow considering typical price and volume. A signal is generated only when both indicators simultaneously increase/decrease beyond an adjustable threshold ("Buy/Sell Sensitivity") and volume exceeds a Simple Moving Average (SMA) scaled by the "Volume Multiplier."
➤ RVOL (Relative Volume) calculates relative volume separately for bullish and bearish candles, comparing recent volume (fast SMA) with a reference volume (slow SMA). Thresholds are adjusted based on the selected mode.
🟡 ADX & RSI
This section displays trend strength ("Strong," "Moderate," or "Weak"), its direction ("Bullish" or "Bearish"), and the RSI momentum status ("Overbought," "Oversold," "Buy/Sell Momentum," or "Neutral").
➤ ADX (Average Directional Index) measures trend strength (above 40 = "Strong," 20–40 = "Moderate," below 20 = "Weak"). Direction is determined by comparing +DI (upward movement) with -DI (downward movement). Additionally, an arrow indicates whether the trend's strength is decreasing or increasing.
➤RSI (Relative Strength Index) evaluates price momentum. Extreme levels (above 80/85 = "Overbought," below 15/20 = "Oversold") and intermediate zones (47–53 = "Neutral," above 53 = "Buy Momentum," below 47 = "Sell Momentum") are adjusted based on the selected mode.
🟡 When these signals are active for a potential trade setup, the table's background lights up green or red, respectively.
🟡 Volume Spikes
➤This feature highlights bars with significantly higher volume than the recent average, coloring them yellow on the chart to draw attention to intense market activity.
➤It uses the Z-Score method to detect volume anomalies. Current volume is compared to a 10-bar Simple Moving Average (SMA) and the standard deviation of volume over the same period. If the Z-Score exceeds a certain threshold, the bar is marked as a volume spike.
🟡 Divergences (Volume Divergence Detection)
➤ This feature marks divergences between price and technical indicators on the chart, using diamond-shaped labels (green for bullish divergences, red for bearish divergences) to signal potential trend reversals.
➤ It compares price deviations from a Simple Moving Average (SMA) with deviations of three indicators: Chaikin Money Flow (CMF), Money Flow Index (MFI), and On-Balance Volume (OBV). A bullish divergence occurs when price falls below its average, but CMF, MFI, and OBV rise above their averages, indicating hidden accumulation. A bearish divergence occurs when price rises above its average, but CMF, MFI, and OBV fall, suggesting distribution. The length of the moving averages is adjustable (default 13/10/5 bars for Scalping/Balanced/Swing), and detection thresholds are scaled by "Divergence Sensitivity" (default 1.0).
🟡 Adaptive Stop-Loss (ATR)
➤Draws dynamic stop-loss lines (red, dashed) on the chart for buy or sell signals, helping traders manage risk.Uses the Average True Range (ATR) to calculate stop-loss levels, set at low/high ± ATR × multiplier
🟡 Alerts for trend direction changes in the Info Panel:
➤ Triggers notifications when the trend shifts to Bullish (when +DI crosses above -DI) or Bearish (when +DI crosses below -DI), helping you stay informed about key market shifts.
How to use: Set alerts in Trading View for “Trend Changed to Bullish” or “Trend Changed to Bearish” with “Once Per Bar Close” for reliable signals.
🟡 Settings (Inputs)
➤ The indicator offers customizable settings to fit your trading style, but it's already optimized for Scalping (1m–15m), Balanced (16m–3h59m), and Swing (4h–Daily) modes, which automatically adjust based on the selected timeframe. The visible inputs allow you to adjust the following parameters:

CDP - Counter-Directional-Pivot🎯 CDP - Counter-Directional-Pivot
📊 Overview
The Counter-Directional-Pivot (CDP) indicator calculates five critical price levels based on the previous day's OHLC data, specifically designed for multi-timeframe analysis. Unlike standard pivot points, CDP levels are calculated using a unique formula that identifies potential reversal zones where price action often changes direction.
⚡ What Makes This Script Original
This implementation solves several technical challenges that existing pivot indicators face:
🔄 Multi-Timeframe Consistency: Values remain identical across all timeframes (1m, 5m, 1h, daily) - a common problem with many pivot implementations
🔒 Intraday Stability: Uses advanced value-locking technology to prevent the "stepping" effect that occurs when pivot lines shift during the trading session
💪 Robust Data Handling: Optimized for both liquid and illiquid stocks with enhanced data synchronization
🧮 CDP Calculation Formula
The indicator calculates five key levels using the previous day's High (H), Low (L), and Close (C):
CDP = (H + L + C) ÷ 3 (Central Decision Point)
AH = 2×CDP + H – 2×L (Anchor High - Strong Resistance)
NH = 2×CDP – L (Near High - Moderate Resistance)
AL = 2×CDP – 2×H + L (Anchor Low - Strong Support)
NL = 2×CDP – H (Near Low - Moderate Support)
✨ Key Features

🔄 Multi-Timeframe Logic
⏰ Intraday Charts: Display previous day's calculated levels as stable horizontal lines
📅 Daily Charts: Show current day's levels based on yesterday's OHLC
🔍 Consistency Check: All timeframes reference the same source data
🤔 Why CDP vs Standard Pivots?
Counter-Directional Pivots often provide more accurate reversal points than traditional pivot calculations because they incorporate the relationship between high/low ranges and closing prices more effectively. The formula creates levels that better reflect market psychology and institutional trading behaviors.

TradeQUO Herrick Payoff RSIHerrick Payoff Index RSI (HPI-RSI) with Signal Line
An advanced oscillator that measures market strength not just by price, but by "smart money flow."
This indicator is not a typical RSI. Instead of applying the Relative Strength Index to price alone, it calculates it on the cumulative Herrick Payoff Index (HPI) . This creates a unique oscillator that reflects the underlying sentiment and capital flow in the market.
What is the Herrick Payoff Index (HPI)?
The HPI is a classic sentiment indicator that combines three crucial elements to determine if money is flowing into or out of an asset:
Price Change: The direction and momentum of the market.
Trading Volume: The conviction behind the price movement.
Open Interest (OI): The total number of open contracts (mainly in futures), which indicates if new capital is entering the market.
By combining these factors, the HPI provides a more comprehensive picture of market strength than indicators based solely on price.
How This Indicator Works
The script follows a logical, multi-step process:
It calculates the raw Herrick Payoff Index for each bar.
It creates a cumulative sum of this index to generate a continuous money flow value.
This cumulative value is smoothed with a short-period EMA to reduce noise.
The RSI is then applied to this smoothed HPI value.
An additional, configurable signal line (moving average) is added to facilitate trading signals.
Interpretation and Application
You can use this indicator much like a standard RSI, but with the added context of money flow:
Overbought/Oversold: Values above 70 suggest an overbought condition, while values below 30 signal an oversold condition.
Signal Line Crossovers: A cross of the HPI-RSI line above the signal line can be seen as a bullish signal. A cross below can be seen as a bearish signal.
Divergences: Look for divergences between the indicator and the price. A bullish divergence (price makes a lower low, indicator makes a higher low) can indicate an upcoming move to the upside. A bearish divergence (price makes a higher high, indicator makes a lower high) can signal a potential move to the downside.
Settings
The indicator has been deliberately kept simple:
HPI Smoothing Length: Smoothing length (1-5) for the cumulative HPI.
RSI Length: The lookback period for the RSI calculation.
Signal Line Settings: Here you can enable/disable the signal line and customize its type and length.
Display Settings: Adjust the colors of the RSI and signal lines to your preference.
This indicator is a tool for analysis and should always be used in combination with other methods and a solid risk management strategy. Happy trading!
CCI Divergence Detector
A technical analysis tool that identifies divergences between price action and the Commodity Channel Index (CCI) oscillator. Unlike standard divergence indicators, this system employs advanced gradient visualization, multi-layer wave effects, and comprehensive customization options to provide traders with crystal-clear divergence signals and market momentum insights.
Core Detection Mechanism
CCI-Based Analysis: The indicator utilizes the Commodity Channel Index as its primary oscillator, calculated from user-configurable source data (default: HLC3) with adjustable length parameters. The CCI provides reliable momentum readings that effectively highlight price-momentum divergences.
Dynamic Pivot Detection: The system employs adaptive pivot detection with three sensitivity levels (High/Normal/Low) to identify significant highs and lows in both price and CCI values. This dynamic approach ensures optimal divergence detection across different market conditions and timeframes.
Dual Divergence Analysis:

Volume Flow OscillatorVolume Flow Oscillator
Overview
The Volume Flow Oscillator is an advanced technical analysis tool that measures buying and selling pressure by combining price direction with volume. Unlike traditional volume indicators, this oscillator reveals the force behind price movements, helping traders identify strong trends, potential reversals, and divergences between price and volume.
Reading the Indicator
The oscillator displays seven colored bands that fluctuate around a zero line:
Three bands above zero (yellow) indicate increasing levels of buying pressure
Three bands below zero (red) indicate increasing levels of selling pressure
The central band represents the baseline volume flow
Color intensity changes based on whether values are positive or negative
Trading Signals
The Volume Flow Oscillator provides several valuable trading signals:
Zero-line crossovers: When multiple bands cross from negative to positive, potential bullish shift; opposite for bearish
Divergences: When price makes new highs/lows but oscillator bands fail to confirm, signals potential reversal
Volume climax: Extreme readings where outer bands stretch far from zero often precede reversals
Trend confirmation: Strong expansion of bands in direction of price movement confirms genuine momentum
Support/resistance: During trends, bands may remain largely on one side of zero, showing continued directional pressure
Customization
Adjust these key parameters to optimize the oscillator for your trading style:
Lookback Length: Controls overall sensitivity (shorter = more responsive, longer = smoother)
Multipliers: Adjust sensitivity spread between bands for different market conditions
ALMA Settings: Fine-tune how the indicator weights recent versus historical data
VWMA Toggle: Enable for additional smoothing in volatile markets
Best Practices
For optimal results, use this oscillator in conjunction with price action and other confirmation indicators. The multi-band approach helps distinguish between minor fluctuations and significant volume events that might signal important market turns.
Adaptive Momentum Oscillator [LuxAlgo]The Adaptive Momentum Oscillator tool allows traders to measure the current relative momentum over a given period using the maximum delta in price.
It features a histogram with gradient color, divergences, and an adaptive moving average that allows traders to clearly see the smoothed trend direction.
🔶 USAGE
This unbounded oscillator has positive momentum when values are above 0 and negative momentum when values are below 0. The adaptive moving average is used as a minimum lag smoothing tool over the momentum histogram.
🔹 Signal Line
There are two main uses for the signal line drawn on the chart above.
Momentum crosses above or below the signal line: acceleration in momentum.
Signal line crosses the 0 value: positive or negative momentum.
🔹 Data Length
On the chart above, we can compare different length sizes and how the tool values change, allowing traders to get a shorter or longer-term view of current market strength.
🔹 Smoothing Length
In the previous figure, we can compare how different Smoothing Length values affect the oscillator output.
🔹 Divergences
The divergence detector is disabled by default. Traders can enable it and adjust the divergence length from the settings panel.
As we can see in the chart above, by changing the length of the divergences, traders can fine-tune their detection, a small number will detect smaller divergences, and use a larger number for larger divergences.

Quarterly Theory ICT 05 [TradingFinder] Doubling Theory Signals🔵 Introduction
Doubling Theory is an advanced approach to price action and market structure analysis that uniquely combines time-based analysis with key Smart Money concepts such as SMT (Smart Money Technique), SSMT (Sequential SMT), Liquidity Sweep, and the Quarterly Theory ICT.
By leveraging fractal time structures and precisely identifying liquidity zones, this method aims to reveal institutional activity specifically smart money entry and exit points hidden within price movements.
At its core, the market is divided into two structural phases: Doubling 1 and Doubling 2. Each phase contains four quarters (Q1 through Q4), which follow the logic of the Quarterly Theory: Accumulation, Manipulation (Judas Swing), Distribution, and Continuation/Reversal.
These segments are anchored by the True Open, allowing for precise alignment with cyclical market behavior and providing a deeper structural interpretation of price action.
During Doubling 1, a Sequential SMT (SSMT) Divergence typically forms between two correlated assets. This time-structured divergence occurs between two swing points positioned in separate quarters (e.g., Q1 and Q2), where one asset breaks a significant low or high, while the second asset fails to confirm it. This lack of confirmation—especially when aligned with the Manipulation and Accumulation phases—often signals early smart money involvement.
Following this, the highest and lowest price points from Doubling 1 are designated as liquidity zones. As the market transitions into Doubling 2, it commonly returns to these zones in a calculated move known as a Liquidity Sweep—a sharp, engineered spike intended to trigger stop orders and pending positions. This sweep, often orchestrated by institutional players, facilitates entry into large positions with minimal slippage.
Bullish :
Bearish :
🔵 How to Use
Applying Doubling Theory requires a simultaneous understanding of temporal structure and inter-asset behavioral divergence. The method unfolds over two main phases—Doubling 1 and Doubling 2—each divided into four quarters (Q1 to Q4).
The first phase focuses on identifying a Sequential SMT (SSMT) divergence, which forms when two correlated assets (e.g., EURUSD and GBPUSD, or NQ and ES) react differently to key price levels across distinct quarters. For example, one asset may break a previous low while the other maintains structure. This misalignment—especially in Q2, the Manipulation phase—often indicates early smart money accumulation or distribution.
Once this divergence is observed, the extreme highs and lows of Doubling 1 are marked as liquidity zones. In Doubling 2, the market gravitates back toward these zones, executing a Liquidity Sweep.
This move is deliberate—designed to activate clustered stop-loss and pending orders and to exploit pockets of resting liquidity. These sweeps are typically driven by institutional forces looking to absorb liquidity and position themselves ahead of the next major price move.
The key to execution lies in the fact that, during the sweep in Doubling 2, a classic SMT divergence should also appear between the two assets. This indicates a weakening of the previous trend and adds an extra layer of confirmation.
🟣 Bullish Doubling Theory
In the bullish scenario, Doubling 1 begins with a bullish SSMT divergence, where one asset forms a lower low while the other maintains its structure. This divergence signals weakening bearish momentum and possible smart money accumulation. In Doubling 2, the market returns to the previous low and sweeps the liquidity zone—breaking below it on one asset, while the second fails to confirm, forming a bullish SMT divergence.
f this move is followed by a bullish PSP and a clear market structure break (MSB), a long entry is triggered. The stop-loss is placed just below the swept liquidity zone, while the target is set in the premium zone, anticipating a move driven by institutional buyers.
🟣 Bearish Doubling Theory
The bearish scenario follows the same structure in reverse. In Doubling 1, a bearish SSMT divergence occurs when one asset prints a higher high while the other fails to do so. This suggests distribution and weakening buying pressure. Then, in Doubling 2, the market returns to the previous high and executes a liquidity sweep, targeting trapped buyers.
A bearish SMT divergence appears, confirming the move, followed by a bearish PSP on the lower timeframe. A short position is initiated after a confirmed MSB, with the stop-loss placed

In both bullish and bearish scenarios, it provides clearly defined entry and exit strategies, allowing traders to engage the market with confidence, controlled risk, and deeper insight into the mechanics of price manipulation and smart money footprints.
Volumetric Tensegrity🧮 Volumetric Tensegrity unifies two of the Leading Indicator suite's critical engines — ZVOL ( volume anomaly detection ) and OBVX ( directional conviction ). Originally designed as a structural economizer for traders navigating strict indicator limits (e.g. < 10 slots per chart), it was forced to evolve beyond that constraint simply to fulfill it, albeit with a difference. The fatal flaw of traditional fusion, where two metrics are blended mathematically, is that they lose scale integrity (i.e. meaning). VTense encodes optical tensegrity to scale the amplitude of the ZVOL histogram and the slope of the OBVX spread independently, so that expansion and direction may coexist without either dominating the frame.
🧬 Tensegrity , by definition, is an intelligent design principle where elements in compression are suspended within a network of continuous tension, forming a stable, self-supporting structure . Originally conceived in esoteric biomorphology (c.f. Da Vinci, Snelson, Casteneda), tensegrity balances force through opposition, not rigidity. Applied to financial markets, Volumetric Tensegrity captures this same principle: price compresses, volume expands, conviction builds or fades — yet structure holds through the interplay. The result is not a prediction engine, but a pressure field — one that visualizes where structure might bend, break, or rebound based on how volume breathes.
🗜️ Rather than layering multiple indicators and consuming precious chart space, VTense frees up room for complementary overlays like momentum mapping, liquidity tiers, or volatility phase detection — making it ideal for modular traders operating in tight technical real estate.
🧠 Core Logic - VTense separates and preserves two essential structural forces:
• ZVOL Histogram : A Z-score-based expansion map that measures current volume deviation from its historical average. It reveals buildup zones, dormant stretches, and breakout pressure — regardless of price behavior.
• OBVX Spread : A directional conviction curve that tracks the difference between On-Balance Volume and its volume-weighted fast trend. It shows whether the crowd is leaning in (accumulation/distribution) or backing off.
🔊 ZVOL controls the amplitude of the histogram, while OBVX controls the curvature and slope of the spread. Without sacrificing breathing behavior or analytical depth, VTense provides a compact yet dynamic lens to track both expansion pressure and directional bias within a single footprint.
🌊 Volumetric Tensegrity forecasts breakout readiness, trend fatigue, and compression zones by measuring the volatility within volume . Unlike traditional tools that track volatility of price, this indicator reveals when effort becomes unstable — signaling inflection points before price reacts. Designed to decode rhythm shifts at the volume level, it operates as a pre-ignition scanner that thrives on low-timeframe charts (15m and under) while scaling effectively to 1H for validation.
🪖 From Generals to Scouts
👀 When used jointly, ZVOL + OBVX act as the general : deep-field analysts confirming stress, commitment, or exhaustion. VTense , by contrast, functions as a scout — capturing subtle buildup and alignment before structure fully reveals itself. The indicator aims to be a literal vanguard, establishing a position that can be confirmed or flexibly abandoned when the higher authority arrives to evaluate.
🥂 Use the ZVOL + OBVX pair when :
• You need independent axis control and manual dissection
• You’re building long-form confluence setups
• You have more indicator slots than you need
🔎 Use VTense when :
• You need compact clarity across multiple instruments
• You’re prioritizing confluence _detection_ over granular separation
• You’re building efficient multi-layered systems under slot constraints
🏗️ Structural Behavior and Interpretation
🫁 Z VOL Respiration Histogram : Structural Effort vs Baseline
🔵 Compression Coil – volume volatility is low and stable; the market is coiling
🟢 Steady Rhythm – volume is healthy but unremarkable; balanced participation
🟡 Passive/Absorbed Effort – expansion failing to manifest; watch for reversal
🟠 Clean Expansion – actionable volatility rise backed by structure
🔴 Volatile Blowout – chaos, climax; likely end-phase or fakeout
⚖️ ZVOL Respiration measures how hard the crowd is pressing — not just that volume is rising, but how statistically abnormal the surge is. Because it is rescaled proportionally to OBVX, the amplitude of the histogram reflects structural urgency without overwhelming the visual field.
🖐️ OBVX Spread : Real-Time Directional Conviction Behind Price Moves
🔑 The curvature of the spread reveals not just directional bias but crowd temp o: sharp slopes = urgent transitions; gradual slopes = building structural shifts. Curvature is key: sharp OBVX slope = urgency; gentle arcs = controlled drift or indecision.
• Green Rising : Accumulation — upward pressure from real buyers
• Red Falling : Distribution — sell pressure, downward slope
• Flat Curves : Transitional → uncertainty, microstructure digestion
🎭 Synchronized vs Divergent Behavior
⏱️ Synchronized (high-confluence) : often precedes structural breakouts, with internal conviction clearly visible before price resolves.
• ZVOL expands (yellow/orange/red) and OBVX climbs steeply green = strong bullish pressure
• ZVOL expands while OBVX steepens red = growing sell-side intent
🪤 Divergent (conflict tension) : flags potential traps, fakeouts, and liquidity sweeps.
• ZVOL expands sharply, but OBVX flattens or opposes → reactive expansion without crowd commitment
⛔️ Latent Drift + Structural Holding Patterns : tensegrity in action — the market holds tension without directional release.
• ZVOL compresses (blue) + OBVX meanders near zero → structure is resting, building up energy
• After prolonged drift, expect violent asymmetry when balance finally breaks
📚 Phase Interpretation: Dynamic Structural Read
• 1️⃣ Quiet Coil : Histogram flat, OBVX flat → no urgency
• 2️⃣ Initial Pulse : Yellow bars, OBVX slope builds → actionable tension
• 3️⃣ Structural Breath : Synchronized expansion and slope → directional commitment
• 4️⃣ Disagreement : Spike in ZVOL, flattening OBVX → exhaustion risk or false signal
💡 Suggested Use
• Run on 15m charts for breakout anticipation and 1H for validation
• Pair with ZVOL + OBVX to confirm crowd conviction behind the tension phase
• Use as a rhythm filter for the suite's trend indicators (e.g., RDI , SUPeR TReND 2.718 , et. al.)
• Ideal during low-volume regimes to detect pressure buildup before triggers
🧏🏻 Volumetric Tensegrity doesn’t signal. It breathes , and listens to pressure shifts before they speak in price. As a scout, it lets you see structural posture before signals align — helping you front-run resolution with clarity, not prediction.

ZVOL — Z-Score Volume Heatmapⓩ ZVOL transforms raw volume into a statistically calibrated heatmap using Z-score thresholds. Unlike classic volume indicators that rely on fixed MA comparisons, ZVOL calculates how many standard deviations each volume bar deviates from its mean. This makes the reading adaptive across timeframes and assets, in order to distinguish meaningful crowd behavior from random volatility.
📊 The core display is a five-zone histogram, each encoded by color and statistical depth. Optional background shading mirrors these zones across the entire pane, revealing subtle compression or structural rhythm shifts across time. By grounding the volume reading in volatility-adjusted context, ZVOL inhibits impulsive trading tactics by compelling the structure, not the sentiment, to dictate the signal.
🥵 Heatmap Coloration:
🌚 Suppressed volume — congestion, coiling phases
🩱 Stable flow — early trend or resting volume
🏀 High activity — emerging pressure
💔 Extreme — possible climax or institutional print
🎗️ A dynamic Fibonacci-based 21:34-period EMA ribbon overlays the histogram. The fill area inverts color on crossover, providing a real-time read on tempo, expansion, or divergence between price structure and crowd effort.
💡 LTF Usage Suggestions:
• Confirm breakout legs when orange or red zones align with range exits
• Fade overextended moves when red bars appear into resistance
• Watch for rising EMAs and orange volume to front-run impulsive moves
• Combine with volatility suppression (e.g. ATR) to catch compression → expansion transitions
🥂 Ideal Pairings:
• OBVX Conviction Bias — to confirm directional intent behind volume shifts
• SUPeR TReND 2.718 — for directional filters
• ATR Turbulence Ribbon — to detect compression phases
👥 The OBVX Conviction Bias adds a second dimension to ZVOL by revealing whether crowd effort is aligning with price direction or diverging beneath the surface. While ZVOL identifies statistical anomalies in raw volume, OBVX tracks directional commitment using cumulative volume and moving average cross logic. Use them together to spot fake-outs, anticipate structure-confirmed breakouts, or time pullbacks with volume-based conviction.
🔬 ZVOL isn’t just a volume filter — it’s a structural lens. It reveals when crowd effort is meaningful, when it's fading, and when something is about to shift. Designed for structure-aware traders who care about context, not noise.
SMT Divergence ICT 02 [TradingFinder] Smart Money Technique SMC🔵 Introduction
SMT Divergence (Smart Money Technique Divergence) is a price action-based trading concept that detects discrepancies in market behavior between two assets that are generally expected to move in the same direction. Rooted in ICT (Inner Circle Trader) methodology, this approach helps traders recognize subtle signs of market manipulation or imbalance, often ahead of traditional indicators.
The core idea behind SMT divergence is simple: when two correlated instruments—such as currency pairs, indices, or assets from the same sector—start forming different swing points (highs or lows), this can reveal a lack of confirmation in the trend. Such divergence is often a precursor to a price reversal or pause in momentum.
This technique works effectively across various markets including Forex, stocks, and cryptocurrencies. It’s particularly valuable when used alongside concepts like liquidity sweeps, market structure breaks (MSBs), or order block identification.
In advanced use cases, Sequential SMT helps uncover patterns of alternating divergences across sessions, often signaling engineered liquidity traps before price reacts.
When combined with the Quarterly Theory—which segments market behavior into Accumulation, Manipulation, Distribution, and Continuation/Reversal phases—traders gain insight not only into where divergence happens, but when it's most likely to be significant within the market cycle.
Bullish SMT :
Bullish SMT Divergence occurs when one asset prints a higher low while the correlated asset forms a lower low. This asymmetry often suggests that the downside move is losing strength, hinting at a potential bullish shift.
Bearish SMT :
Bearish SMT Divergence is formed when one asset creates a higher high, while the second asset fails to confirm by printing a lower high. This typically signals weakening bullish pressure and the possibility of a reversal to the downside.
🔵 How to Use
The SMT Divergence indicator is designed to detect imbalances between two positively correlated assets—such as major currency pairs, indices, or commodities. These divergences often indicate early signs of market inefficiency or smart money manipulation and can help traders anticipate trend shifts with higher precision.
Unlike traditional divergence indicators or earlier versions of this script, this upgraded version does not rely solely on consecutive pivot comparisons. Instead, it dynamically scans all available pivots within the chart to identify divergences at any structural level—major or minor—across the price action. This broader detection method increases the reliability and frequency of meaningful SMT signals.
Moreover, when integrated with Sequential SMT logic, the indicator is capable of identifying multiple divergence sequences across sessions. These sequences often signal engineered liquidity traps and can be mapped within the Quarterly Theory framework, allowing traders to pinpoint not just the presence of divergence but also the phase of the market cycle it appears in (Accumulation, Manipulation, Distribution, or Continuation).
🟣 Bullish SMT Divergence
This signal occurs when the primary asset forms a higher low, while the correlated asset forms a lower low. This pattern implies weakening bearish momentum and a potential shift to the upside.
If the correlated asset breaks its previous low but the primary asset does not, this divergence suggests absorption of selling pressure and possible accumulation by smart money—making it a strong bullish signal, especially when aligned with a favorable market phase (e.g., the end of a manipulation phase in Q2).
🟣 Bearish SMT Divergence
This signal occurs when the primary asset creates a higher high, while the correlated asset forms a lower high. This mismatch indicates fading bullish momentum and a potential reversal to the downside.
If the correlated asset fails to confirm a breakout made by the main asset, the divergence may point to distribution or exhaustion. When seen within Q3 or Q4 phases of the Quarterly Theory, this pattern often precedes sharp declines or fake-outs engineered by smart money

Gioteen-NormThe "Gioteen-Norm" indicator is a versatile and powerful technical analysis tool designed to help traders identify key market conditions such as divergences, overbought/oversold levels, and trend strength. By normalizing price data relative to a moving average and standard deviation, this indicator provides a unique perspective on price behavior, making it easier to spot potential reversals or continuations in the market.
The indicator calculates a normalized value based on the difference between the selected price and its moving average, scaled by the standard deviation over a user-defined period. Additionally, an optional moving average of this normalized value (Green line) can be plotted to smooth the output and enhance signal clarity. This dual-line approach makes it an excellent tool for both short-term and long-term traders.
***Key Features
Divergence Detection: The Gioteen-Norm excels at identifying divergences between price action and the normalized indicator value. For example, if the price makes a higher high while Red line forms a lower high, it may signal a bearish divergence, hinting at a potential reversal.
Overbought/Oversold Conditions: Extreme values of Red line (e.g., significantly above or below zero) can indicate overbought or oversold conditions, helping traders anticipate pullbacks or bounces.
Trend Strength Insight: The normalized output reflects how far the price deviates from its average, providing a measure of momentum and trend strength.
**Customizable Parameters
Traders can adjust the period, moving average type, applied price, and shift to suit their trading style and timeframe.
**How It Works
Label1 (Red Line): Represents the normalized price deviation from a user-selected moving average (SMA, EMA, SMMA, or LWMA) divided by the standard deviation over the specified period. This line highlights the relative position of the price compared to its historical range.
Label2 (Green Line, Optional): A moving average of Label1, which smooths the normalized data to reduce noise and provide clearer signals. This can be toggled on or off via the "Draw MA" option.
**Inputs
Period: Length of the lookback period for normalization (default: 100).
MA Method: Type of moving average for normalization (SMA, EMA, SMMA, LWMA; default: EMA).
Applied Price: Price type used for calculation (Close, Open, High, Low, HL2, HLC3, HLCC4; default: Close).
Shift: Shifts the indicator forward or backward (default: 0).
Draw MA: Toggle the display of the Label2 moving average (default: true).
MA Period: Length of the moving average for Label2 (default: 50).
MA Method (Label2): Type of moving average for Label2 (SMA, EMA, SMMA, LWMA; default: SMA).
**How to Use
Divergence Trading: Look for discrepancies between price action and Label1. A bullish divergence (higher low in Label1 vs. lower low in price) may suggest a buying opportunity, while a bearish divergence could indicate a selling opportunity.
Overbought/Oversold Levels: Monitor extreme Label1 values. For instance, values significantly above +2 or below -2 could indicate overextension, though traders should define thresholds based on the asset and timeframe.
Trend Confirmation: Use Label2 to confirm trend direction. A rising Label2 suggests increasing bullish momentum, while a declining Label2 may indicate bearish pressure.
Combine with Other Tools: Pair Gioteen-Norm with support/resistance levels, RSI, or volume indicators for a more robust trading strategy.
**Notes
The indicator is non-overlay, meaning it plots below the price chart in a separate panel.
Avoid using a Period value of 1, as it may lead to unstable results due to insufficient data for standard deviation calculation.
This tool is best used as part of a broader trading system rather than in isolation.
**Why Use Gioteen-Norm?
The Gioteen-Norm indicator offers a fresh take on price normalization, blending statistical analysis with moving average techniques. Its flexibility and clarity make it suitable for traders of all levels—whether you're scalping on short timeframes or analyzing long-term trends. By publishing this for free, I hope to contribute to the TradingView community and help traders uncover hidden opportunities in the markets.

How to Use the Indicator
Step-by-Step Trading Process
1. Monitor the Chart
Load your XRP 1D chart with the indicator applied.
Observe the blue vw_mom line and signal markers.
2. Spot a Signal
Primary Signals: Look for red triangles (strong_bear) or green triangles (strong_bull).
Warnings: Note orange crosses (suppression_bear) or yellow crosses (suppression_bull).
3. Confirm the Signal
For Strong Bullish Divergence (Buy):
Green triangle appears.
Price closes above the 5-day SMA (purple line) and a recent swing high.
Optional: Volume ratio (gray line) exceeds the threshold (yellow line).
For Strong Bearish Divergence (Sell):
Red triangle appears.
Price closes below the 5-day SMA and a recent swing low.
Optional: Volume ratio (gray line) falls below the threshold (yellow line).
4. Enter the Trade
Long:
Buy at the close of the signal bar.
Stop loss: Below the recent swing low or 2 × ATR(14) below entry.
Short:
Sell/short at the close of the signal bar.
Stop loss: Above the recent swing high or 2 × ATR(14) above entry.
5. Manage the Trade
Take Profit:
Aim for a 2:1 or 3:1 risk-reward ratio (e.g., risk $0.05, target $0.10-$0.15).
Or exit when an opposite suppression signal appears (e.g., orange cross for longs).
Trailing Stop:
Move stop to breakeven after a 1:1 RR move.
Trail using the 5-day SMA or 2 × ATR(14).
Early Exit:
Exit if a suppression signal appears against your position (e.g., suppression_bull while short).
6. Filter Out Noise
Avoid trades if a suppression signal precedes a divergence within 2-3 days.
Optional: Add a 50-day SMA on the price chart:
Longs only if price > 50-SMA.
Shorts only if price < 50-SMA.
Example Trades (XRP 1D)
Bullish Trade
Signal: Green triangle (strong_bull) at $0.55.
Confirmation: Price closes above 5-SMA and $0.57 high.
Entry: Buy at $0.58.
Stop Loss: $0.53 (recent low).
Take Profit: $0.63 (2:1 RR) or exit on suppression_bear.
Outcome: Price hits $0.64, exit at $0.63 for profit.
Bearish Trade
Signal: Red triangle (strong_bear) at $0.70.
Confirmation: Price closes below 5-SMA and $0.68 low.
Entry: Short at $0.67.
Stop Loss: $0.71 (recent high).
Take Profit: $0.62 (2:1 RR) or exit on suppression_bull.
Outcome: Price drops to $0.61, exit at $0.62 for profit.
Tips for Success
Combine with Price Levels:
Use support/resistance zones (e.g., weekly pivots) to confirm entries.
Monitor Volume:
Rising volume (gray line above yellow) strengthens signals.
Adjust Sensitivity:
Too many signals? Increase div_strength_threshold to 0.7.
Too few signals? Decrease to 0.3.
Backtest:
Review 20-30 past signals on XRP 1D to assess performance.
Avoid Choppy Markets:
Skip signals during low volatility (tight price ranges).
Troubleshooting
No Signals:
Lower div_strength_threshold to 0.3 or mom_threshold_base to 0.2.
Check if XRP’s volatility is unusually low.
False Signals:
Increase sma_confirm_length to 7 or add a 50-SMA filter.
Indicator Not Loading:
Ensure the script compiles without errors.

VSA Volume + Fibonacci (Volunacci)Overview
This indicator combines Volume Spread Analysis (VSA) with Fibonacci levels to identify key price zones based on volume behavior. It helps traders determine potential support and resistance levels influenced by volume strength.
How It Works
Volume Calculation
The indicator calculates volume levels based on the selected timeframe.
It identifies high volume spikes and low volume dips, which are critical for detecting supply and demand shifts.
It uses a simple moving average (SMA) of volume to smooth fluctuations.
Fibonacci Levels Integration
When a high-volume event is detected, the indicator records the highest high and lowest low of that candle.
It then plots Fibonacci retracement and extension levels to highlight potential price reaction zones.
Negative Fibonacci levels are included to identify possible deep retracements.
Visual Features
The indicator adapts to both light and dark themes for better visibility.
Fibonacci lines are color-coded based on key retracement and extension levels.
A table displaying key Fibonacci levels and their corresponding prices is provided for quick reference.
Why Is This Indicator Useful?
It helps traders spot accumulation and distribution phases by analyzing volume at key price points.
The combination of VSA and Fibonacci allows traders to confirm trend strength and identify potential reversal points.
Works well for trend-following strategies, scalping, and breakout trading.
How to Use This Indicator?
Use it to confirm breakouts or reversals at Fibonacci levels when volume supports the move.
Watch for high-volume spikes near key Fibonacci zones—these can signal strong trend continuation or reversal.
Use the displayed Fibonacci table to quickly assess price reaction levels.
Credits
This script was inspired by the Hidden Gap’s VSA Volume indicator by HPotter and has been enhanced by integrating Fibonacci-based analysis.
Divergence IQ [TradingIQ]Hello Traders!
Introducing "Divergence IQ"
Divergence IQ lets traders identify divergences between price action and almost ANY TradingView technical indicator. This tool is designed to help you spot potential trend reversals and continuation patterns with a range of configurable features.
Features
Divergence Detection
Detects both regular and hidden divergences for bullish and bearish setups by comparing price movements with changes in the indicator.
Offers two detection methods: one based on classic pivot point analysis and another that provides immediate divergence signals.
Option to use closing prices for divergence detection, allowing you to choose the data that best fits your strategy.
Normalization Options:
Includes multiple normalization techniques such as robust scaling, rolling Z-score, rolling min-max, or no normalization at all.
Adjustable normalization window lets you customize the indicator to suit various market conditions.
Option to display the normalized indicator on the chart for clearer visual comparison.
Allows traders to take indicators that aren't oscillators, and convert them into an oscillator - allowing for better divergence detection.
Simulated Trade Management:
Integrates simulated trade entries and exits based on divergence signals to demonstrate potential trading outcomes.
Customizable exit strategies with options for ATR-based or percentage-based stop loss and profit target settings.
Automatically calculates key trade metrics such as profit percentage, win rate, profit factor, and total trade count.
Visual Enhancements and On-Chart Displays:
Color-coded signals differentiate between bullish, bearish, hidden bullish, and hidden bearish divergence setups.
On-chart labels, lines, and gradient flow visualizations clearly mark divergence signals, entry points, and exit levels.
Configurable settings let you choose whether to display divergence signals on the price chart or in a separate pane.
Performance Metrics Table:
A performance table dynamically displays important statistics like profit, win rate, profit factor, and number of trades.
This feature offers an at-a-glance assessment of how the divergence-based strategy is performing.
The image above shows Divergence IQ successfully identifying and trading a bullish divergence between an indicator and price action!
The image above shows Divergence IQ successfully identifying and trading a bearish divergence between an indicator and price action!
The image above shows Divergence IQ successfully identifying and trading a hidden bullish divergence between an indicator and price action!
The image above shows Divergence IQ successfully identifying and trading a hidden bearish divergence between an indicator and price action!
The performance table is designed to provide a clear summary of simulated trade results based on divergence setups. You can easily review key metrics to assess the strategy’s effectiveness over different time periods.
Customization and Adaptability
Divergence IQ offers a wide range of configurable settings to tailor the indicator to your personal trading approach. You can adjust the lookback and lookahead periods for pivot detection, select your preferred method for normalization, and modify trade exit parameters to manage risk according to your strategy. The tool’s clear visual elements and comprehensive performance metrics make it a useful addition to your technical analysis toolbox.
The image above shows Divergence IQ identifying divergences between price action and OBV with no normalization technique applied.
While traders can look for divergences between OBV and price, OBV doesn't naturally behave like an oscillator, with no definable upper and lower threshold, OBV can infinitely increase or decrease.
With Divergence IQ's ability to normalize any indicator, traders can normalize non-oscillator technical indicators such as OBV, CVD, MACD, or even a moving average.
In the image above, the "Robust Scaling" normalization technique is selected. Consequently, the output of OBV has changed and is now behaving similar to an oscillator-like technical indicator. This makes spotting divergences between the indicator and price easier and more appropriate.
The three normalization techniques included will change the indicator's final output to be more compatible with divergence detection.
This feature can be used with almost any technical indicator.
Stop Type
Traders can select between ATR based profit targets and stop losses, or percentage based profit targets and stop losses.
The image above shows options for the feature.
Divergence Detection Method
A natural pitfall of divergence trading is that it generally takes several bars to "confirm" a divergence. This makes trading the divergence complicated, because the entry at time of the divergence might look great; however, the divergence wasn't actually signaled until several bars later.
To circumvent this issue, Divergence IQ offers two divergence detection mechanisms.
Pivot Detection
Pivot detection mode is the same as almost every divergence indicator on TradingView. The Pivots High Low indicator is used to detect market/indicator highs and lows and, consequently, divergences.
This method generally finds the "best looking" divergences, but will always take additional time to confirm the divergence.
Immediate Detection
Immediate detection mode attempts to reduce lag between the divergence and its confirmation to as little as possible while avoiding repainting.
Immediate detection mode still uses the Pivots Detection model to find the first high/low of a divergence. However, the most recent high/low does not utilize the Pivot Detection model, and instead immediately looks for a divergence between price and an indicator.
Immediate Detection Mode will always signal a divergence one bar after it's occurred, and traders can set alerts in this mode to be alerted as soon as the divergence occurs.
TradingView Backtester Integration
Divergence IQ is fully compatible with the TradingView backtester!
Divergence IQ isn’t designed to be a “profitable strategy” for users to trade. Instead, the intention of including the backtester is to let users backtest divergence-based trading strategies between the asset on their chart and almost any technical indicator, and to see if divergences have any predictive utility in that market.
So while the backtester is available in Divergence IQ, it’s for users to personally figure out if they should consider a divergence an actionable insight, and not a solicitation that Divergence IQ is a profitable trading strategy. Divergence IQ should be thought of as a Divergence backtesting toolkit, not a full-feature trading strategy.
Strategy Properties Used For Backtest
Initial Capital: $1000 - a realistic amount of starting capital that will resonate with many traders
Amount Per Trade: 5% of equity - a realistic amount of capital to invest relative to portfolio size
Commission: 0.02% - a conservative amount of commission to pay for trade that is standard in crypto trading, and very high for other markets.
Slippage: 1 tick - appropriate for liquid markets, but must be increased in markets with low activity.
Once more, the backtester is meant for traders to personally figure out if divergences are actionable trading signals on the market they wish to trade with the indicator they wish to use.
And that's all!
If you have any cool features you think can benefit Divergence IQ - please feel free to share them!
Thank you so much TradingView community!
