Forecasting
Radi IQ [TradingIQ]Introducing "Radi IQ".
Radi IQ is a comprehensive market structure indicator designed to provide traders with a detailed view of key price levels and market behavior. It combines several analytical methods—including internal and external structure analysis, fair value gaps, order blocks, breaker blocks, rejection blocks, premium discount zones, equal levels, directional liquidity grabs, and trend meters —to help users better understand areas of support and resistance, potential turning points, and liquidity events in the market.
Key Components and Their Functions
Market Structure Analysis
Internal and External Structure : The indicator evaluates market structure on two levels. The internal analysis focuses on immediate price action (e.g., recent support/resistance and swing points), while the external analysis uses a higher timeframe to provide context. This dual approach helps to confirm the strength of key levels by comparing short-term moves with the broader market trend.
Break of Structure (BoS) and Change of Character (CHoCH) : These signals highlight moments when the market shifts its behavior. A BoS indicates that a previous level of support or resistance has been overcome, while a CHoCH signals a change in the market’s character. Both are marked clearly on the chart using distinct color codes.
Break of Structure + (BoS+) and Change of Character + (CHoCH+) : These signals highlight moments when the market shifts its behavior and is confirmed by prior price action. A BoS + indicates that a previous level of support or resistance has been overcome, while price action achieves higher highs and higher lows (resistance break) or lower highs and lower lows (support break). CHoCH + signals a change in the market’s character when supported by prior price action - lower highs for a support break and higher lows for a resistance break.
BoS and CHoCH
The image above shows BoS and CHoCH identified on the price chart, and explains what each signifies.
A Break Of Structure (BoS) occurs when price decisively moves beyond a previously established support or resistance level. It indicates that the current trend or market pattern is being challenged, and the market may be ready to change direction.
A Change of Character (CHoCH) describes a shift in how the market behaves. A CHoCH occurs when, in an uptrend, a previously established support level breaks, or in a downtrend, a previously established resistance level breaks.
This break indicates that the market's typical structure is shifting, suggesting that the current trend may be losing its strength and that a reversal or a new trend could be developing.
CHoCH+
The image above explains CHoCH+ and how it forms, while highlighting an instance where a downside CHoCH+ formed following lower highs.
A Change of Character + (CHoCH+) describes a shift in how the market behaves that is supported by prior price action. For support breaks, price must form lower highs before breaking support.
The image above explains CHoCH+ for resistance breaks, while highlighting an instance where a resistance point broke that was supported by prior price action.
BoS+
The image above explains BoS+ and how it forms, while highlighting an instance where an upside BoS+ formed following higher highs and higher lows.
A BoS+ resistance break requires higher highs and higher lows prior to the resistance point being closed over.
The image above explains BoS+ support break, while highlighting an instance where a downside BoS+ formed following lower highs and lower lows.
A BoS+ support break requires lower highs and lower lows prior to the support point being closed under.
Future BoS and CHoCH
Radi IQ also displays where the next BoS and CHoCH points are located.
The image above shows the feature in action. With this, traders will always know where the next key support/resistance breakpoints are before they actually occur.
Fair Value Gaps (FVG)
The indicator identifies gaps in the price where little or no trading occurred—known as fair value gaps. These gaps can act as temporary support or resistance and may indicate areas where the market is likely to correct. FVGs are displayed with clear color gradients that differentiate between upward and downward gaps.
The image above shows an identified upside FVG. In the image, the identified upside FVG acted as a support point for price.
The image above shows an identified downside FVG. In the image, the identified downside FVG acted as a resistance point for price.
Low Volume FVG
In addition to identifying trading FVGs - Radi IQ can also specifically detect low volume fair value gaps. Ideally, these fair value gaps will form inside a low volume node on a volume profile.
Low volume node FVGs are important because these are areas where very little trading occurred and is confirmable, indicating an imbalance in supply and demand. Since few trades took place there, the market often moves quickly through these zones when revisited, which can lead to rapid price changes. This "gap" in trading activity can serve as a signal for potential reversals or fast moves, offering opportunities to enter or exit positions based on expected market behavior.
The image above shows identified FVGs that formed on low volume.
Large Area FVGs
Radi IQ is also capable of filtering out “inconsequential” FVGs. With this, Radi IQ can be enabled to only mark FVGs that cover a wide price range.
The image above shows the feature enabled, and all identified FVGs formed with a wide price range.
Large Area FVGs and Low Volume FVGs Combined
Traders can also enable Radi IQ to only mark FVGs that form on low volume and have a wide price range - allowing traders to only identify the highest quality FVGs on the chart.
Order Blocks and Premium Discount Zones
Order Blocks: Radi IQ detects areas where large orders have previously been placed by institutional traders. These blocks can act as strong levels of support or resistance, and the indicator marks bullish and bearish order blocks with dedicated colors.
What is an order block?
Order blocks are clusters of orders that institutions have executed to enter or exit a market position. They typically form when there is a period of consolidation before a significant move. For example, the last bullish candle before a strong down move may indicate a supply order block, while the last bearish candle before a sharp rally might be considered a demand order block.
Why They Form:
Institutions don’t trade in small, sporadic amounts; they accumulate or distribute large volumes of an asset. To avoid slippage and minimize market impact, they execute these orders over a zone rather than at a single price point. This creates a recognizable “block” on the chart.
Order Block Identification Types
Strength Score
The “Strength Score” order block detection mode is a TradingIQ proprietary ranking system for identified order blocks.
Purpose
The purpose of the “Strength Score” ranking system is to determine the “strength” or significance of an order block and rate the zone’s likelihood to act as support/resistance when retested in the future.
The scoring system ranks from 0 - 10, with “0” indicating a “weak” score or low likelihood of acting as a key support/resistance level when retested in the future.
A rating of “5” indicates a “moderate” score, indicating that the order block has a moderate likelihood of acting as a key support/resistance level when retested in the future.
A rating of “10” indicates a “strong” score, indicating that the order block has a strong likelihood of acting as a key support/resistance level when retested in the future.
How It Works
The score is calculated by examining the price move following the formation of an order block. The stronger the price move after an order block forms - the higher the Strength Score.
The image above shows a bearish order block with a score of “5” identified on the chart. The order block successfully operates as a resistance point when retested.
The image above shows a bullish order block with a score of “5” identified on the chart. The order block successfully operates as a resistance point when retested.
Volume-Based
The volume-based order block detection method detects traditional order blocks, but goes one step further by identifying the highest concentration point of volume for the bar and drawing the order block around this concentration point.
Key features when using the volume-based order block detection method:
The top of the order block is anchored to the top of the highest volume concentration point of the bar
The bottom of the order block is anchored to the bottom of the highest volume concentration point of the bar
The total volume that went into creation of the order block is displayed on the chart
The total volume of the order block is recorded as a percentage relative to the total volume for all order blocks on the chart
The image above shows the detection method in action.
Breaker Blocks
A breaker block is a specific type of order block that gains significance when price breaks through it and then often retests the level as a new area of support or resistance. Essentially, it’s a zone where, after the initial break, the previous level (which once acted as strong support or resistance) flips roles. For example, in an uptrend, if the price falls below a key support level, that level can become a breaker block and act as resistance if the price tries to move back up. Conversely, in a downtrend, a broken resistance level can serve as new support. Traders monitor breaker blocks because they often mark a shift in market sentiment and can provide potential entry or exit points once the market re-engages with these levels.
The image above shows a breaker block above price acting as resistance.
The image above shows a breaker block below price acting as support.
Rejection Blocks
A rejection block is a price area where the market shows a strong unwillingness to move beyond a certain level. This typically happens when price approaches a specific level but then is quickly rejected, leading to a bounce in the opposite direction. In other words, a rejection block forms when traders' orders create a barrier, causing the price to reverse rather than break through. Traders watch these areas closely, as they often signal a strong concentration of supply or demand that could provide potential entry or exit points for trades.
The image above shows both a verified upside rejection block acting as resistance, and an untested downside rejection block.
Rejection blocks are expected to function as strong support/resistance points when retested in the future.
Premium Discount Zones
Premium Discount Zones : These zones reflect areas where price is trading above (premium) or below (discount) a fair value range. They help traders gauge whether the current market price is relatively high or low compared to historical averages.
Premium Discount Zones account for recent swing highs and lows to calculate a fair value along with discount and premium prices over an intermediate time window.
The image above shows the premium and discount price zones in action.
Equal Levels
The indicator also tracks and highlights equal levels, which occur when the market repeatedly tests the same price levels. Equal levels can reinforce the significance of a support or resistance area and are represented by their own set of color markers.
The image above shows Radi IQ distinguishing equal highs and equal lows.
Equal Highs
When you see two or more highs that are approximately the same, it suggests that the market is repeatedly rejecting attempts to push higher. This signals a strong resistance level where sellers (or stop-hunters) are active.
Equal Lows
Similarly, consecutive lows at the same level indicate strong support, where buyers step in consistently, preventing further decline.
Strong Highs and Lows
Strong High
A strong high is a price level where the market repeatedly fails to push higher. Typically, it’s characterized by:
Rejection: Price approaches the high but then reverses sharply, often leaving long upper wicks on the candlestick chart.
Consolidation: Multiple bars might show highs that are very close in value (often termed "equal highs"), indicating a well-established resistance zone.
Market Sentiment: This pattern suggests that sellers are actively defending that level, preventing further upward movement.
Strong Lows
Conversely, a strong low is a price level where the market repeatedly fails to break lower. It is identified by:
Bounce Back: Price touches the low and then rebounds sharply, often leaving long lower wicks.
Consistency: Multiple lows occur around the same level (sometimes referred to as "equal lows"), marking a solid support area.
Market Sentiment: This indicates that buyers are stepping in at that level, absorbing selling pressure and supporting the price.
The image above shows Radi IQ detecting both a strong high and strong low, while the detected strong low acts as support when retested.
Liquidity Grabs
Liquidity grabs occur when the market temporarily moves to absorb liquidity, often triggering stop-loss orders and leading to rapid price movements. Radi IQ flags these events by identifying conditions where price moves against recent pivots, helping traders spot potential liquidity-related reversals or breakouts.
The image above shows Radi IQ identifying both an upside liquidity grab and a downside liquidity grab.
Upside Liquidity Grab (Bearish)
An upside liquidity grab happens when the price moves above a well-known resistance area or recent high. This move is often short-lived.
Many traders place stop-loss orders or pending buy orders just above resistance levels. Institutional players may intentionally push price upward to trigger these orders, thereby “grabbing” the liquidity available at that level.
Downside Liquidity Grab (Bullish)
A downside liquidity grab is the mirror image: the price briefly dips below a key support level or recent low.
Traders often place stop-loss orders or pending sell orders just below support levels. An intentional drop below this support can trigger these stops, allowing institutional players to capture liquidity.
Multi-Timeframe Analysis and Swings
By using data from different timeframes, Radi IQ offers a broader perspective on market trends. It highlights significant swing highs and swing lows, providing visual cues that indicate the market’s directional bias. This feature assists traders in identifying both short-term opportunities and long-term trends.
The image above shows Radi IQ detecting higher swings and lower swings.
IQ Meters / Fibometer
IQ Meters (Fibometers) are a proprietary TradingIQ tool that allows traders to easily identify the highs and lows of the current trend and where current price is relative to these points.
The image above depicts the IQ Meters—an exclusive TradingIQ tool designed to help traders evaluate trend strength and retracement opportunities.
When the lower timeframe Zig Zag IQ and the higher timeframe Zig Zag IQ are out of sync (i.e., one is uptrending while the other is downtrending, with no active positions), the meters display a neutral color as shown in the image.
The key to using these meters is to identify trend unison and pinpoint key trend retracement entry opportunities. Fibonacci retracement levels for the current trend are interlaced along each meter, and the current price is converted to a retracement ratio of the trend.
These meters can mathematically determine where price stands relative to the larger and smaller trends, aiding in identifying entry opportunities.
The top of each meter indicates the highest price achieved during the current price move.
The bottom of each meter indicates the lowest price achieved during the current price move.
When both the larger and smaller trends are in sync and uptrending, or when a long position is active, the IQ meters turn green, indicating uptrend strength.
When both meters are green, it indicates uptrend strength as both the higher timeframe trend and lower timeframe trend are in unison. Look for price to retrace to key fibonacci retracement levels during this time period.
When both trends are in sync and downtrending, or when a short position is active, the IQ meters turn red, indicating downtrend strength.
When both meters are red, it indicates downtrend strength as both the higher timeframe trend and lower timeframe trend are in unison. Look for price to retrace to key fibonacci retracement levels during this time period.

IQ Liquidation Heatmap [TradingIQ]Introducing "IQ Liquidation Heatmap".
IQ Liquidation Heatmap is a proprietary indicator designed to identify and display price zones where large numbers of crypto position liquidations are likely to occur. It presents both current liquidation zones—areas where a cascade of liquidations would be triggered if the price is reached—and historical liquidation zones, where such events have taken place before.
Why Liquidations and Liquidation Cascades Are Important
Liquidation cascades are important because they can lead to rapid and significant price moves in the market. When many traders have set stop-loss orders or are highly leveraged at similar price levels, a move that hits these zones can force a large number of positions to close at once. This mass closing of positions not only accelerates the price movement but can also trigger further liquidations in a self-reinforcing loop.
Understanding where these cascades occur helps traders recognize potential support and resistance levels. It also provides insights into where market participants are most vulnerable, allowing for better risk management and more informed trading decisions. In short, liquidation cascades highlight key areas of market stress that can lead to increased volatility and opportunities for those prepared to act.
In short, if a lot of short positions are liquidated simultaneously, an upside liquidation cascade can occur. During an upside liquidation cascade, price will increase intensely to the upside with high volatility.
If a lot of long positions are liquidated simultaneously, a downside liquidation cascade can occur. During a downside liquidation cascade, price will decrease intensely to the downside with high volatility.
Knowing where these liquidation cascades can occur is invaluable information for crypto traders.
What IQ Liquidation Heatmap Does
IQ Liquidation Heatmap visually maps price levels that have seen or may see liquidation cascades. In plain terms, it shows you where many stop-losses or leveraged positions have been triggered in the past and where similar events can occur in the future. By highlighting these zones, the indicator helps you understand areas of market stress that could lead to rapid price movements.
The image above shows a historical liquidation cascade occurring. Clustered bubbles show large amounts of liquidations occurring - the more bubbles and the brighter they are, the stronger the liquidation cascade. During a liquidation cascade, there is a higher chance that a strong downtrend or uptrend will continue.
Current Liquidation Levels
The image above explains current liquidation levels.
Current liquidations levels are price areas where a large number of positions will be liquidated. If a liquidation level is above the current price, then it is considered a price zone where shorts will be liquidated. If a liquidation level is below the current price, then it is considered a price zone where longs will be liquidated.
In this image, bright green levels represent price areas where the highest amount of positions will be liquidated, while dark purple levels represent price areas where the lowest amount of positions will be liquidated.
An active (current) liquidation level will extend to the right beyond the current price because they have not yet been hit.
When strong liquidation levels (green - bright green) are hit and are above price, it is expected that an upside liquidation cascade will occur. When strong liquidations are hit and are below price, it is expected that a downside liquidation cascade will occur.
Historical Liquidation Levels
The image above explains historical liquidation levels.
Historical liquidation levels stop at the bar where they are hit, so you can see how price responded to hitting a key liquidation level.
In this image, bright green levels represent price areas where the highest amount of positions will be liquidated, while dark purple levels represent price areas where the lowest amount of positions will be liquidated.
If price moves up into a liquidation level, then shorts are being liquidated. If price moves down into a liquidation level, then longs are being liquidated. In the image, we can see that when bright green liquidation levels were hit - a liquidation cascade occurred. During this cascade, price continued to move strongly to the downside with high volatility.
During the uptrend after the downtrend, we can see some bright green liquidation levels were also hit - causing an upside liquidation cascade that resulted in strong, volatile upside price moves.
Gradient Bar
The image above explains the liquidations gradient bar.
The bar located on the right of your chart shows what colors correspond to low, medium, and high liquidation levels.
In this image, bright green means the liquidation level is strong, while dark purple means the liquidation level is weak. By extension, we would expect liquidation cascades or strong price moves to more likely occur when a cluster of bright green liquidation zones are hit. Additionally, we would expect a small reaction (or no reaction at all) when dark purple liquidation zones are hit.
Colors are customizable.
Liquidation Cluster Bar
The image above explains the liquidation cluster bar.
The liquidation cluster bar aggregates liquidation zones and shows the approximate price areas where the highest number of liquidation points are located.
In this image, the green portion of the bar represents where the largest number of traders will be liquidated in aggregate. While the purple portions of the bar shows where the smallest number of traders will be liquidated in aggregate.
This bar is useful for clustering liquidations zones across larger price areas to see where the highest number of traders are likely to be liquidated.
Concept Behind IQ Liquidation Heatmap
The basic idea is simple: in crypto markets, when price reaches certain levels, many traders’ positions can be liquidated at once, causing sharp moves in price. These zones are not random. They are built on historical price data and statistical analysis of past liquidation events. IQ Liquidation Heatmap captures this information and presents it in an easy-to-read format.
Key points include:
Current Liquidation Zones: These are the areas where, if the price moves into them, a high number of liquidations could occur.
Historical Liquidation Zones: These show where liquidation cascades have happened in the past, offering context on how the market has behaved under stress.
Key Features of IQ Liquidation Heatmap
Real-Time and Historical Data:
The indicator combines current market conditions with historical liquidation events. It updates dynamically to reflect real-time data while also showing past liquidation zones.
Visual Heatmap:
The display uses color gradients to represent the intensity of liquidation activity. Brighter or more intense colors indicate zones with a higher likelihood of triggering liquidations, while darker colors represent areas with lower activity.
User-Friendly Interface:
IQ Liquidation Heatmap is designed to be simple and straightforward. The visual output clearly marks the price levels of interest, making it easy for traders to see where liquidations might occur.
Proprietary Calculation:
The data behind the indicator is calculated using proprietary methods that consider historical price action, statistical ranges, and liquidity distribution. This means the indicator adapts to the specific characteristics of different crypto assets and timeframes.
Dynamic Updates:
The indicator recalculates its output in real time as new price data comes in. This ensures that the displayed liquidation zones are always current and reflect the latest market conditions.
How IQ Liquidation Heatmap Works
Data Collection:
IQ Liquidation Heatmap gathers historical price data as well as data on liquidation events. This data is used to identify key price ranges and levels where liquidations have previously occurred.
Statistical Analysis:
The indicator applies statistical methods—such as calculating medians and percentiles—to determine the significance of each price range. This analysis helps to rank the importance of various liquidation zones.
Liquidity Clustering:
Areas with a high concentration of liquidations are identified by examining how many positions or stop orders are clustered at specific price levels. These clusters are then represented on the chart using a heatmap style.
Visual Mapping:
The calculated data is overlaid onto the trading chart. Graphical elements like lines, boxes, or filled regions mark the identified liquidation zones. Color gradients help to differentiate between zones with high versus low liquidation risk.
Real-Time Recalculation:
As new price data becomes available, IQ Liquidation Heatmap continuously updates its analysis. This ensures that the indicator remains relevant throughout the trading session and can quickly adjust if market conditions change.
Using IQ Liquidation Heatmap
Traders can use IQ Liquidation Heatmap as an additional tool to support their trading decisions. Here are some practical applications:
Trade Entry And Exit Planning:
The visual cues provided by the indicator can serve as reference points for planning entries and exits. When the price nears a zone known for triggering liquidations, traders can adjust their strategies accordingly.
Risk Management:
By identifying key liquidation zones, traders can better manage risk. Knowing where a liquidation cascade is likely to occur helps in setting more effective stop-loss orders and managing overall exposure.
Market Structure Analysis:
The historical data offered by IQ Liquidation Heatmap gives insight into how the market has reacted in the past during periods of stress. This historical perspective can help in understanding broader market trends and potential future movements.
Summary
IQ Liquidation Heatmap is a straightforward indicator that provides clear visual information about price levels where liquidation cascades have occurred or are likely to occur. By merging historical data with real-time updates and proprietary liquidity analysis, it offers traders a neutral and data-driven way to understand areas of potential market stress for entries and exits. The indicator is simple to use and does not require complex adjustments, making it suitable for traders looking for clear visual cues in the crypto market.
By incorporating IQ Liquidation Heatmap into your analysis toolkit, you can gain a better understanding of key price zones, support effective risk management, and identify liquidation cascades before they occur and potentially identify breakouts before they occur.

BB LevelsBB Levels — Volatility-Based Weekly Trading Ranges
Overview:
BB Levels is a multi-timeframe indicator that projects weekly trading ranges using historical price behavior and volatility modeling. It combines data from both the 4H and Daily timeframes to provide a dual-perspective view of expected price extremes.
Solid Lines → Based on the Daily timeframe (smoother, broader volatility)
Dashed Lines → Based on the 4H timeframe (finer, more reactive to short-term volatility)
How It Works:
The indicator employs a Markov Switching Model to estimate the prevailing market regime and generate a forecasted directional bias. It then applies average historical volatility to project a weekly range:
The centerline is a forecasted “zero level” based on the prior week’s close, adjusted by regime and trend forecast.
The upper and lower bounds are derived from average weekly volatility, scaled to reflect expected movement.
Two versions are shown:
Daily (solid): Represents the more conservative, long-term expectations.
4H (dashed): Captures short-term momentum and faster volatility shifts.
Important Note:
These levels represent statistical expectations, not fixed boundaries. Price may:
Consolidate within the dashed (4H) range during quiet periods
Break beyond the solid (Daily) range during news events or trending expansions
Designed For:
Swing traders seeking structured, volatility-adjusted weekly levels
Day traders targeting high-probability reversal zones
Strategists combining trend forecasting with expected price behavior
Econometrica by [SS]This is Econometrica, an indicator that aims to bridge a big gap between the resources available for analysis of fundamental data and its impact on tickers and price action.
I have noticed a general dearth of available indicators that offer insight into how fundamentals impact a ticker and provide guidance on how they these economic factors influence ticker behaviour.
Enter Econometrica. Econometrica is a math based indicator that aims to co-integrate and model indicator price action in relation to critical economic metrics.
Econometrica supports the following US based economic data:
CPI
Non-Farm Payroll
Core Inflation
US Money Supply
US Central Bank Balance Sheet
GDP
PCE
Let's go over the functions of Econometrica.
Creating a Regression Cointegrated Model
The first thing Econometrica does is creates a co-integrated regression, as you see in the main chart, predicting ticker value ranges from fundamental economic data.
You can visualize this in the main chart above, but here are some other examples:
SPY vs Core Inflation:
BA vs PCE:
QQQ vs US Balance Sheet:
The band represents the anticipated range the ticker should theoretically fall in based on the underlying economic value. The indicator will breakdown the relationship between the economic indicator and the ticker more precisely. In the images above, you can see how there are some metrics provided, including Stationairty, lagged correlation, Integrated Correlation and R2. Let's discuss these very briefly:
Stationarity: checks to ensure that the relationship between the economic indicator and ticker is stationary. Stationary data is important for making unbiased inferences and projections, so having data that is stationary is valuable.
Lagged Correlation: This is a very interesting metric. Lagged correlation means whether there is a delay in the economic indicator and the response of the ticker. Typically, you will observed a lagged correlation between an economic indicator and price of a ticker, as it can take some time for economic changes to reach the market. This lagged correlation will provide you with how long it takes for the economic indicator to catch up with the ticker in months.
Integrated Correlation: This metric tells you how good of a fit the regression bands are in relation to the ticker price. A higher correlation, means the model is better at consistent and accurate information about the anticipated range for the ticker in relation to the economic indicator.
R2: Provides information on the variance and degree of model fit. A high R2 value means that the model is capable of explaining a large amount of variance between the economic indicator and the ticker price action.
Explaining the Relationship
Owning to the fact that the indicator is a bit on the mathy side (it has to be to do this kind of task), I have included ability for the indicator to explain and make suggestions based on the underlying data. It can assess the model's fit and make suggestions for tweaking. It can also explain the implications of the data being presented in the model.
Here is an example with QQQ and the US Balance Sheet:
This helps to simplify and interpret the results you are looking at.
Forecasting the Economic Indicator
In addition to assessing the economic indicator's impact on the ticker, the indicator is also capable of forecasting out the economic indicator over the next 25 releases.
Here is an example of the CPI forecast:
Overall use of the indicator
The indicator is meant to bridge the gap between Technical Analysis and Fundamental Analysis.
Any trader who is attune to fundamentals would benefit from this, as this provides you with objective data on how and to what extent fundamental and economic data impacts tickers.
It can help affirm hypothesis and dispel myths objectively.
It also omits the need from having to perform these types of analyses outside of Tradingview (i.e. in excel, R or Python), as you can get the data in just a few licks of enabling the indicator.
Conclusion
I have tried to make this indicator as user friendly as possible. Though it uses a lot of math, it is fairly straight forward to interpret.
The band plotted can be considered the fair market value or FMV of the ticker based on the underlying economic data, provided the indicator tells you that the relationship is significant (and it will blatantly give you this information verbatim, you don't have to interpret the math stuff).
This is US economic data only. It does not pull economic data from other countries. You can absolutely see how US economic data impacts other markets like the TSX, BANKNIFTY, NIFTY, DAX etc. but the indicator is only pulling US economic data.
That is it!
I hope you enjoy it and find this helpful!
Thanks everyone and safe trades as always 🚀🚀🚀
FiveFactorEdgeUses ATR14, TSI, RSI, Fast Stochastic and Slow Stochastic information to determine potential high and low price, trend strength and direction. The information ia easy to read, self-descriptive and color coded for quick reference. Since it incorporates 5 different elements it could be used by itself but as with any indicator it's highly recommended to use it with other tried and true indicators.
HabibiTrades Pro System Strategy Overview
This strategy uses the following conditions:
WMA Crossover: To determine the direction of the market trend.
ADX: To confirm whether the trend is strong enough for trade.
Volume Spike: To validate the trade signal with increased market participation.
Let's break down each component and its role in the strategy.
1. WMA (Weighted Moving Average) Crossover:
The WMA is a type of moving average that gives more weight to recent prices. In this strategy, we use two WMAs:
Fast WMA (short period): Reacts quicker to price changes.
Slow WMA (long period): Reacts slower to price changes.
How it works:
Bullish Entry (Long): The Fast WMA crosses above the Slow WMA, indicating a potential upward price movement (bullish trend).
Bearish Entry (Short): The Fast WMA crosses below the Slow WMA, indicating a potential downward price movement (bearish trend).
2. ADX (Average Directional Index):
The ADX measures the strength of a trend, regardless of whether the trend is up or down.
How it works:
ADX > 20: Indicates a strong trend (either bullish or bearish). This is the threshold for considering a trade.
ADX > 30: Indicates an even stronger trend and is used to indicate high confidence in the trend direction.
3. Volume Spike:
Volume is an important indicator that tells you how much trading activity is happening in the market. A volume spike occurs when the current volume is significantly higher than the average volume over a specified period.
How it works:
Volume Spike Condition: The current volume is compared to the average volume (SMA). If the current volume is greater than the Volume SMA multiplied by the Volume Multiplier, a volume spike is detected.
Volume spikes are used to validate the strength of the trend and increase the likelihood that the trade signal is meaningful.
Strategy Logic
Long Entry Conditions (Buy Signal):
WMA Crossover: The Fast WMA crosses above the Slow WMA (bullish signal).
ADX: The ADX is above 20 (indicating a strong trend).
Volume Spike: The current volume is higher than the Volume SMA multiplied by the Volume Multiplier, confirming market participation.
Short Entry Conditions (Sell Signal):
WMA Crossover: The Fast WMA crosses below the Slow WMA (bearish signal).
ADX: The ADX is above 20 (indicating a strong trend).
Volume Spike: The current volume is higher than the Volume SMA multiplied by the Volume Multiplier, confirming market participation.
Exit Conditions:
Trailing Stop: A trailing stop is used based on the highest price for long trades or the lowest price for short trades since the entry. The position is exited when the price moves against the trade by a set amount (in ticks).

SuperTrader Trend Analysis and Trade Study DashboardSuperTrader Trend Analysis and Trade Study Dashboard
Overview
This script offers a multi-faceted look at market behavior. It combines signals from different momentum indicators, daily cross checks, and a specialized dashboard to reveal trend strength, potential divergences, and how far price has traveled from its recent averages.
Three Musketeers Method
This script uses a special set of three indicators (the “Three Musketeers”) to determine bullish or bearish pressure on the current chart.
Trend Condition – Compares fast vs. slow EMAs (50 and 200) and checks which side of the line price is favoring.
Mean Reversion Condition – Watches RSI crossing typical oversold or overbought thresholds (e.g., crossing above 30 or below 70).
Bollinger Condition – Checks whether price pushes above/below the Bollinger Bands (based on a 20 SMA + standard deviations).
When at least two out of these three conditions align in a bullish way, the script issues a Buy Signal . Conversely, if at least two align in a bearish way, a Sell Signal is triggered. This “Three Musketeers” synergy ensures multiple confirmations before calling a potential market turn.
Mag 8 Daily Performance
The script tracks eight highly influential stocks (AAPL, AMZN, GOOG, NFLX, NVDA, TSLA, META, MSFT) to see which are green (higher) or red (lower) compared to yesterday’s close. It then prints a quick tally – helpful in gauging overall market mood via these major players.
Golden / Death Cross Signals
On a daily time frame, the script notes when the 50-day SMA crosses above or below the 200-day SMA. A “Golden Cross” often signals rising momentum, while a “Death Cross” can hint at oncoming weakness.
RSI & Divergence Checks
RSI helps identify hidden turning points. Whenever a bullish or bearish divergence is spotted, the script updates you via a concise readout.
Hardcoded Settings
EMA lengths for trend checks, Bollinger parameters, etc., are locked in, letting you focus on adjusting only the pivotal study inputs (e.g., RSI length, VIDYA momentum).
VIDYA Trend Line & Fill
Built on an adaptive Variable Index Dynamic Average, it plots a line that quickly reacts to changing momentum. Users can set a “Trend Band Distance” to mark ATR-based thresholds around that line, identifying possible breakouts or breakdowns.
YoYo Distance
This concept measures how far price strays from SMA(10). If it’s too far, the script colors your display to indicate potential snapbacks.
Gap Up/Down Probability
By weighing volume, MACD signals, and whether price sits above/below its midrange, the script estimates probabilities of a gap up or down on the next daily candle.
Table Output & Trend Label
Turning on Show Table Widget reveals a quick dashboard on the chart detailing RSI, CCI, divergences, bull/bear scores, and more. A label on the last bar further summarizes overall trend, gap distance, and the Mag 8 snapshot – perfect for a fast read of current market posture.
Use this script to unify multiple signals in one place, see how far price has ventured from typical patterns, and get daily cross signals plus real-time bullish/bearish calls – all at a glance.
Smart % Levels📈 Smart % Levels – Visualize Significant Percentage Moves
What it does:
This indicator plots horizontal levels based on a percentage change from the previous day's close (or open, if selected). It allows traders to visualize price movements relative to meaningful thresholds like ±1%, ±2%, etc.
What makes it different:
Unlike other level indicators, Smart % Levels only displays the relevant levels based on current price action. This avoids clutter by showing only the levels that are being approached or crossed by the current price. It's a clean and dynamic way to visualize key price zones for intraday analysis.
How it works:
- Select between using the previous day's Close or Open as the reference
- Choose the percentage spacing between levels (e.g., 1%, 0.5%, etc.)
- Enable optional labels to see the exact percentage of each level
- Automatically filters levels to only show those between yesterday's price and today's current price
- Includes customization for colors, line styles, widths, and opacity
Best for:
Day traders and scalpers who want a quick, clean view of how far the current price has moved from yesterday’s reference, without being overwhelmed by unnecessary lines.
Extra notes:
- The levels are recalculated each day at the market open
- All graphics reset at the start of each session to maintain clarity
- This script avoids repainting by only plotting levels relative to available historical data (no lookahead)

Daily ProtractorDaily Protractor Indicator
Overview
The Daily Protractor is a visually intuitive tool designed for traders who want to analyze price action through angular measurements on a 5-minute chart. By overlaying a protractor on the chart, this indicator helps identify potential support, resistance, and trend directions based on angular relationships from the first 5-minute candle of each day. It’s particularly useful for intraday traders looking to incorporate geometric analysis into their strategies for spot or strike charts.
Key Features
Dynamic Protractor Overlay: Draws a protractor centered on the low of the first 5-minute candle of each day, with customizable radius in both bars (horizontal) and price units (vertical).
Angular Measurements: Displays angles in 5-degree increments, covering a full 360° circle or a 105° to -105° (91° to 269°) half-circle, depending on user preference.
Customizable Display:
Adjust the number of days to display protractors (up to 5 days).
Customize line colors for different angle ranges (0° to 180°, 180° to 360°, and 0° specifically).
Modify line thickness, label size, and label colors for better visibility.
Center Point Highlight: Marks the center of each protractor with a labeled point for easy reference.
Efficient Design:
Optimized with max_lines_count, max_labels_count, and max_bars_back to ensure smooth performance on TradingView.
How It Works
The indicator identifies the first 5-minute candle of each day and uses its low price as the center point for a protractor. It then draws lines at 5-degree intervals, radiating from the center, with each line representing an angle from 0° to 360°. Labels at the end of each line display the angle in degrees, with negative values shown for angles between 195° and 345° (e.g., 270° is displayed as -90°). The protractor’s radius can be adjusted in both time (bars) and price units, allowing traders to scale the tool to their chart’s characteristics.
Usage Instructions
Add to Chart:
Apply the indicator to a 5-minute chart of your chosen instrument (e.g., spot or strike charts).
Interpret the Protractor:
Use the angular lines to identify potential price levels or trend directions.
The 0° line (horizontal) can act as a reference for horizontal support/resistance.
Angles between 0° and 180° (upper half) and 180° and 360° (lower half) are color-coded for quick identification.
Customize Settings:
Toggle the Show 105° to -105° option to display a half-circle (91° to 269°) instead of a full 360° protractor.
Adjust the Radius in Bars and Radius in Price Units to scale the protractor to your chart.
Set the Maximum Days to Display to control how many daily protractors are shown.
Modify line thickness, colors, and label settings to suit your visual preferences.
Customization Options
Protractor Settings:
Show 105° to -105° (91° to 269°): Toggle between a full circle or a half-circle protractor.
Radius in Bars: Set the horizontal span of the protractor (default: 75 bars).
Radius in Price Units: Set the vertical span in price units (default: 1000.0).
Maximum Days to Display: Limit the number of protractors shown (default: 5 days).
Line Settings:
Line Thickness: Adjust the thickness of the protractor lines (1 or 2).
Line Color (0° to 180°): Color for the upper half (default: light blue).
Line Color (180° to 360°): Color for the lower half (default: light red).
Line Color (0°): Color for the 0° line (default: black).
Label Settings:
Label Size: Choose between small, normal, or large labels.
Label Color (0° to 180°): Color for labels in the upper half (default: red).
Label Color (180° to 360°): Color for labels in the lower half (default: green).
Notes
The indicator was designed with the help of Grok3 for use on 5-minute charts only, as it relies on the first 5-minute candle of the day to set the protractor’s center.
For best results, adjust the radius settings to match the volatility and price scale of your instrument. However, where the price is in single digits it is advised to switch off the labels or I would suggest not to use the same.
The protractor can be used alongside other technical tools to confirm trends, reversals, or key price levels.
Limitations: This cannot be used on instruments that trade for more than 75 candles with a timeframe of 5 minutes as the angles would not cover the entire trading window. I am working coming up with a script to address this limitation.

Composite Reversal IndicatorOverview
The "Composite Reversal Indicator" aggregates five technical signals to produce a composite score that ranges from -5 (strongly bearish) to +5 (strongly bullish). These signals come from:
Relative Strength Index (RSI)
Moving Average Convergence Divergence (MACD)
Accumulation/Distribution (A/D)
Volume relative to its moving average
Price proximity to support and resistance levels
Each signal contributes a value of +1 (bullish), -1 (bearish), or 0 (neutral) to the total score. The raw score is plotted as a histogram, and a smoothed version is plotted as a colored line to highlight trends.
Step-by-Step Explanation
1. Customizable Inputs
The indicator starts with user-defined inputs that allow traders to tweak its settings. These inputs include:
RSI: Length (e.g., 14), oversold level (e.g., 30), and overbought level (e.g., 70).
MACD: Fast length (e.g., 12), slow length (e.g., 26), and signal length (e.g., 9).
Volume: Moving average length (e.g., 20) and multipliers for high (e.g., 1.5) and low (e.g., 0.5) volume thresholds.
Price Levels: Period for support and resistance (e.g., 50) and proximity percentage (e.g., 2%).
Score Smoothing: Length for smoothing the score (e.g., 5).
These inputs make the indicator adaptable to different trading styles, assets, or timeframes.
2. Indicator Calculations
The script calculates five key indicators using the input parameters:
RSI: Measures momentum and identifies overbought or oversold conditions.
Formula: rsi = ta.rsi(close, rsi_length)
Example: With a length of 14, it analyzes the past 14 bars of closing prices.
MACD: Tracks trend and momentum using two exponential moving averages (EMAs).
Formula: = ta.macd(close, macd_fast, macd_slow, macd_signal)
Components: MACD line (fast EMA - slow EMA), signal line (EMA of MACD line).
Accumulation/Distribution (A/D): A volume-based indicator showing buying or selling pressure.
Formula: ad = ta.accdist
Reflects cumulative flow based on price and volume.
Volume Moving Average: A simple moving average (SMA) of trading volume.
Formula: vol_ma = ta.sma(volume, vol_ma_length)
Example: A 20-bar SMA smooths volume data.
Support and Resistance Levels: Key price levels based on historical lows and highs.
Formulas:
support = ta.lowest(low, price_level_period)
resistance = ta.highest(high, price_level_period)
Example: Over 50 bars, it finds the lowest low and highest high.
These calculations provide the raw data for generating signals.
3. Signal Generation
Each indicator produces a signal based on specific conditions:
RSI Signal:
+1: RSI < oversold level (e.g., < 30) → potential bullish reversal.
-1: RSI > overbought level (e.g., > 70) → potential bearish reversal.
0: Otherwise.
Logic: Extreme RSI values suggest price may reverse.
MACD Signal:
+1: MACD line > signal line → bullish momentum.
-1: MACD line < signal line → bearish momentum.
0: Equal.
Logic: Crossovers indicate trend shifts.
A/D Signal:
+1: Current A/D > previous A/D → accumulation (bullish).
-1: Current A/D < previous A/D → distribution (bearish).
0: Unchanged.
Logic: Rising A/D shows buying pressure.
Volume Signal:
+1: Volume > high threshold (e.g., 1.5 × volume MA) → strong activity (bullish).
-1: Volume < low threshold (e.g., 0.5 × volume MA) → weak activity (bearish).
0: Otherwise.
Logic: Volume spikes often confirm reversals.
Price Signal:
+1: Close near support (within proximity %, e.g., 2%) → potential bounce.
-1: Close near resistance (within proximity %) → potential rejection.
0: Otherwise.
Logic: Price near key levels signals reversal zones.
4. Composite Score
The raw composite score is the sum of the five signals:
Formula: score = rsi_signal + macd_signal + ad_signal + vol_signal + price_signal
Range: -5 (all signals bearish) to +5 (all signals bullish).
Purpose: Combines multiple perspectives into one number.
5. Smoothed Score
A smoothed version of the score reduces noise:
Formula: score_ma = ta.sma(score, score_ma_length)
Example: With a length of 5, it averages the score over 5 bars.
Purpose: Highlights the trend rather than short-term fluctuations.
6. Visualization
The indicator plots two elements:
Raw Score: A gray histogram showing the composite score per bar.
Style: plot.style_histogram
Color: Gray.
Smoothed Score: A line that changes color:
Green: Score > 0 (bullish).
Red: Score < 0 (bearish).
Gray: Score = 0 (neutral).
Style: plot.style_line, thicker line (e.g., linewidth=2).
These visuals make it easy to spot potential reversals.
How It Works Together
The indicator combines signals from:
RSI: Momentum extremes.
MACD: Trend shifts.
A/D: Buying/selling pressure.
Volume: Confirmation of moves.
Price Levels: Key reversal zones.
By summing these into a composite score, it filters out noise and provides a unified signal. A high positive score (e.g., +3 to +5) suggests a bullish reversal, while a low negative score (e.g., -3 to -5) suggests a bearish reversal. The smoothed score helps traders focus on the trend.
Practical Use
Bullish Reversal: Smoothed score is green and rising → look for buying opportunities.
Bearish Reversal: Smoothed score is red and falling → consider selling or shorting.
Neutral: Score near 0 → wait for clearer signals.
Traders can adjust inputs to suit their strategy, making it versatile for stocks, forex, or crypto.
Pivot S/R with Volatility Filter## *📌 Indicator Purpose*
This indicator identifies *key support/resistance levels* using pivot points while also:
✅ Detecting *high-volume liquidity traps* (stop hunts)
✅ Filtering insignificant pivots via *ATR (Average True Range) volatility*
✅ Tracking *test counts and breakouts* to measure level strength
---
## *⚙ SETTINGS – Detailed Breakdown*
### *1️⃣ ◆ General Settings*
#### *🔹 Pivot Length*
- *Purpose:* Determines how many bars to analyze when identifying pivots.
- *Usage:*
- *Low values (5-20):* More pivots, better for scalping.
- *High values (50-200):* Fewer but stronger levels for swing trading.
- *Example:*
- Pivot Length = 50 → Only the most significant highs/lows over 50 bars are marked.
#### *🔹 Test Threshold (Max Test Count)*
- *Purpose:* Sets how many times a level can be tested before being invalidated.
- *Example:*
- Test Threshold = 3 → After 3 tests, the level is ignored (likely to break).
#### *🔹 Zone Range*
- *Purpose:* Creates a price buffer around pivots (±0.001 by default).
- *Why?* Markets often respect "zones" rather than exact prices.
---
### *2️⃣ ◆ Volatility Filter (ATR)*
#### *🔹 ATR Period*
- *Purpose:* Smoothing period for Average True Range calculation.
- *Default:* 14 (standard for volatility measurement).
#### *🔹 ATR Multiplier (Min Move)*
- *Purpose:* Requires pivots to show *meaningful price movement*.
- *Formula:* Min Move = ATR × Multiplier
- *Example:*
- ATR = 10 pips, Multiplier = 1.5 → Only pivots with *15+ pip swings* are valid.
#### *🔹 Show ATR Filter Info*
- Displays current ATR and minimum move requirements on the chart.
---
### *3️⃣ ◆ Volume Analysis*
#### *🔹 Volume Change Threshold (%)*
- *Purpose:* Filters for *unusual volume spikes* (institutional activity).
- *Example:*
- Threshold = 1.2 → Requires *120% of average volume* to confirm signals.
#### *🔹 Volume MA Period*
- *Purpose:* Lookback period for "normal" volume calculation.
---
### *4️⃣ ◆ Wick Analysis*
#### *🔹 Wick Length Threshold (Ratio)*
- *Purpose:* Ensures rejection candles have *long wicks* (strong reversals).
- *Formula:* Wick Ratio = (Upper Wick + Lower Wick) / Candle Range
- *Example:*
- Threshold = 0.6 → 60% of the candle must be wicks.
#### *🔹 Min Wick Size (ATR %)*
- *Purpose:* Filters out small wicks in volatile markets.
- *Example:*
- ATR = 20 pips, MinWickSize = 1% → Wicks under *0.2 pips* are ignored.
---
### *5️⃣ ◆ Display Settings*
- *Show Zones:* Toggles support/resistance shaded areas.
- *Show Traps:* Highlights liquidity traps (▲/▼ symbols).
- *Show Tests:* Displays how many times levels were tested.
- *Zone Transparency:* Adjusts opacity of zones.
---
## *🎯 Practical Use Cases*
### *1️⃣ Liquidity Trap Detection*
- *Scenario:* Price spikes *above resistance* then reverses sharply.
- *Requirements:*
- Long wick (Wick Ratio > 0.6)
- High volume (Volume > Threshold)
- *Outcome:* *Short Trap* signal (▼) appears.
### *2️⃣ Strong Support Level*
- *Scenario:* Price bounces *3 times* from the same level.
- *Indicator Action:*
- Labels the level with test count (3/5 = 3 tests out of max 5).
- Turns *red* if broken (Break Count > 0).
Deep Dive: How This Indicator Works*

| Forex Majors | 0.8-1.2 |
| Crypto (BTC/ETH) | 1.5-2.5 |
| SP500 Stocks | 1.0-1.5 |
- *Why It Matters:*
In EUR/USD (ATR=10 pips):
- Multiplier=1.0 → Requires 10 pip swings
- Multiplier=1.5 → Requires 15 pip swings (fewer but higher quality levels)
---
### *3️⃣ Volume Confirmation System*
#### *Volume Threshold (1.2)*
- *Institutional Benchmark:*
- 1.2x = Moderate institutional interest
- 1.5x+ = Strong smart money activity
- *Volume Spike Case Study:*

### *4️⃣ Liquidity Trap Detection*
#### *Wick Analysis System*
- *Two-Filter Verification:*
1. *Wick Ratio (0.6):*
- Ensures majority of candle shows rejection
- Formula: (UpperWick + LowerWick) / Total Range > 0.6
2. *Min Wick Size (1% ATR):*
- Prevents false signals in flat markets
- Example: ATR=20 pips → Min wick=0.2 pips
- *Trap Identification Flowchart:*
Price Enters Zone →
Spikes Beyond Level →
Shows Long Wick →
Volume > Threshold →

## *💡 Master-Level Usage Techniques*
### *Institutional Order Flow Analysis*
1. *Step 1:* Identify pivot levels with ≥3 tests
2. *Step 2:* Watch for volume contraction near levels
3. *Step 3:* Enter when trap signal appears with:
- Wick > 2×ATR
- Volume > 1.5× average
### *Multi-Timeframe Confirmation*
1. *Higher TF:* Find weekly/monthly pivots
2. *Lower TF:* Use this indicator for precise entries
3. *Example:*
- Weekly pivot at $180
- 4H shows liquidity trap → High-probability reversal
---
## *⚠ Critical Mistakes to Avoid*
1. *Using Default Settings Everywhere*
- Crude oil needs higher ATR multiplier than bonds
2. *Ignoring Trap Context*
- Traps work best at:
- All-time highs/lows
- Major psychological numbers (00/50 levels)
3. *Overlooking Cumulative Volume*
- Check if volume is building over multiple tests

Color & Style Options – Each level type (e.g., London High, NY Low) can be customized in color, line style (solid, dashed, dotted), and width.
Faded Opacity for Swept Levels – When a level is swept (price breaks but closes beyond it), it becomes semi-transparent, helping traders distinguish active vs. invalidated levels.
4. Clean & Informative Labels
Each level has a clear label (e.g., "Asia High," "PW Low") for easy identification.
Adjustable label offsets prevent clutter on the chart.
Pros & Benefits for Traders:
✅ Helps Identify Key Liquidity Zones – Institutional traders often target session highs/lows for liquidity grabs. This indicator makes these levels visible at a glance.
✅ Adaptable to Different Trading Styles
Day Traders – Can use Asian/London/NY session levels for intraday setups.
Swing Traders – Can focus on weekly and Monday levels for broader trends.
✅ No Repainting – Levels are fixed once formed and do not change retroactively.
✅ Customizable for Personal Preference – Traders can adjust colors, line styles, and visibility to match their trading setup.
✅ Useful for Multiple Markets – Works well on Forex (major pairs), indices, and even crypto (due to 24/7 market structure similarities).
Suggested Use Cases:
Breakout Trading – Watch for price reactions at session highs/lows.
Mean Reversion – Fade moves into weekly or daily extremes.
Institutional Liquidity Analysis – Identify potential stop hunts or accumulation zones.
Conclusion:
This indicator is a powerful tool for traders who rely on session-based liquidity, institutional order flow, and key support/resistance levels. By automating the detection of these zones, it saves time and helps traders make more informed decisions.
Bitcoin Polynomial Regression ModelThis is the main version of the script. Click here for the Oscillator part of the script.
💡Why this model was created:
One of the key issues with most existing models, including our own Bitcoin Log Growth Curve Model , is that they often fail to realistically account for diminishing returns. As a result, they may present overly optimistic bull cycle targets (hence, we introduced alternative settings in our previous Bitcoin Log Growth Curve Model).
This new model however, has been built from the ground up with a primary focus on incorporating the principle of diminishing returns. It directly responds to this concept, which has been briefly explored here .
📉The theory of diminishing returns:
This theory suggests that as each four-year market cycle unfolds, volatility gradually decreases, leading to more tempered price movements. It also implies that the price increase from one cycle peak to the next will decrease over time as the asset matures. The same pattern applies to cycle lows and the relationship between tops and bottoms. In essence, these price movements are interconnected and should generally follow a consistent pattern. We believe this model provides a more realistic outlook on bull and bear market cycles.
To better understand this theory, the relationships between cycle tops and bottoms are outlined below:https://www.tradingview.com/x/7Hldzsf2/
🔧Creation of the model:
For those interested in how this model was created, the process is explained here. Otherwise, feel free to skip this section.
This model is based on two separate cubic polynomial regression lines. One for the top price trend and another for the bottom. Both follow the general cubic polynomial function:
ax^3 +bx^2 + cx + d.
In this equation, x represents the weekly bar index minus an offset, while a, b, c, and d are determined through polynomial regression analysis. The input (x, y) values used for the polynomial regression analysis are as follows:
Top regression line (x, y) values:
113, 18.6
240, 1004
451, 19128
655, 65502
Bottom regression line (x, y) values:
103, 2.5
267, 211
471, 3193
676, 16255
The values above correspond to historical Bitcoin cycle tops and bottoms, where x is the weekly bar index and y is the weekly closing price of Bitcoin. The best fit is determined using metrics such as R-squared values, residual error analysis, and visual inspection. While the exact details of this evaluation are beyond the scope of this post, the following optimal parameters were found:
Top regression line parameter values:
a: 0.000202798
b: 0.0872922
c: -30.88805
d: 1827.14113
Bottom regression line parameter values:
a: 0.000138314
b: -0.0768236
c: 13.90555
d: -765.8892
📊Polynomial Regression Oscillator:
This publication also includes the oscillator version of the this model which is displayed at the bottom of the screen. The oscillator applies a logarithmic transformation to the price and the regression lines using the formula log10(x) .
The log-transformed price is then normalized using min-max normalization relative to the log-transformed top and bottom regression line with the formula:
normalized price = log(close) - log(bottom regression line) / log(top regression line) - log(bottom regression line)
This transformation results in a price value between 0 and 1 between both the regression lines. The Oscillator version can be found here.
🔍Interpretation of the Model:
In general, the red area represents a caution zone, as historically, the price has often been near its cycle market top within this range. On the other hand, the green area is considered an area of opportunity, as historically, it has corresponded to the market bottom.
The top regression line serves as a signal for the absolute market cycle peak, while the bottom regression line indicates the absolute market cycle bottom.
Additionally, this model provides a predicted range for Bitcoin's future price movements, which can be used to make extrapolated predictions. We will explore this further below.
🔮Future Predictions:
Finally, let's discuss what this model actually predicts for the potential upcoming market cycle top and the corresponding market cycle bottom. In our previous post here , a cycle interval analysis was performed to predict a likely time window for the next cycle top and bottom:
In the image, it is predicted that the next top-to-top cycle interval will be 208 weeks, which translates to November 3rd, 2025. It is also predicted that the bottom-to-top cycle interval will be 152 weeks, which corresponds to October 13th, 2025. On the macro level, these two dates align quite well. For our prediction, we take the average of these two dates: October 24th 2025. This will be our target date for the bull cycle top.
Now, let's do the same for the upcoming cycle bottom. The bottom-to-bottom cycle interval is predicted to be 205 weeks, which translates to October 19th, 2026, and the top-to-bottom cycle interval is predicted to be 259 weeks, which corresponds to October 26th, 2026. We then take the average of these two dates, predicting a bear cycle bottom date target of October 19th, 2026.
Now that we have our predicted top and bottom cycle date targets, we can simply reference these two dates to our model, giving us the Bitcoin top price prediction in the range of 152,000 in Q4 2025 and a subsequent bottom price prediction in the range of 46,500 in Q4 2026.
For those interested in understanding what this specifically means for the predicted diminishing return top and bottom cycle values, the image below displays these predicted values. The new values are highlighted in yellow:
And of course, keep in mind that these targets are just rough estimates. While we've done our best to estimate these targets through a data-driven approach, markets will always remain unpredictable in nature. What are your targets? Feel free to share them in the comment section below.

VIX Implied MovesKey Features:
Three Timeframe Bands:
Daily: Blue bands showing ±1σ expected move
Weekly: Green bands showing ±1σ expected move
30-Day: Red bands showing ±1σ expected move
Calculation Methodology:
Uses VIX's annualized volatility converted to specific timeframes using square root of time rule
Trading day convention (252 days/year)
Band width = Price × (VIX/100) ÷ √(number of periods)
Visual Features:
Colored semi-transparent backgrounds between bands
Progressive line thickness (thinner for shorter timeframes)
Real-time updates as VIX and ES prices change
Example Calculation (VIX=20, ES=5000):
Daily move = 5000 × (20/100)/√252 ≈ ±63 points
Weekly move = 5000 × (20/100)/√50 ≈ ±141 points
Monthly move = 5000 × (20/100)/√21 ≈ ±218 points
This indicator helps visualize expected price ranges based on current volatility conditions, with wider bands indicating higher market uncertainty. The probabilistic ranges represent 68% confidence levels (1 standard deviation) derived from options pricing.
Auto Gap DetectorThis indicator uses previous sessions open/close (whichever is closest) and the new sessions open to automatically detect both a gap up or gap down on any timeframe but is intended for use on on the daily timeframe ONLY. This is not the traditional definition of a gap but the one that i use for my strategy and has been more consistent and conservative than others.
We have also provided instructions on how to create alerts for these indicators below.
Happy Trading!
White Boxes: indicate an overnight gap up/down that is incomplete or not filled.
Green Boxes: When a gap fill is complete the white box will be changed to a green box so that it may still be used as a reference for support and resistance on following sessions.
*Color, transparency and borders of boxes can be customized in settings.
Set Up Alerts
Now, let’s make sure you get notified when a gap has occurred and when it has been filled happens:
Open the Alerts Menu
On the chart, click the bell icon (top right of the screen) to create an alert.
Configure the Auto Gap indicator
In the “Condition” dropdown, select “Auto Gap indicator".
Below that, select “Overnight Gap Detected or Overnight Gap Filled.”
*Note: if you want to detect when both a gap has been detected and when it has been filled you must create two separate alerts.
Set “Once Per Bar Close” in the next dropdown (this ensures it only triggers after the period ends, avoiding false signals mid-bar).
Choose how you want to be notified (e.g., popup, email, or phone app—set this under “Notifications”).
Configure the Auto Gap Alert
Click the bell icon again to create a second alert.
Feel free to leave comments requesting any upgrades or potential bugs. Thank you!
