Momentum Reversal / Dip Buyer [Score Based]Strategy Overview
Momentum Reversal / Dip Buyer is a quantitative reversal engine designed to fade stretched moves and buy dips / sell rallies when multiple momentum and context factors line up. It’s built for liquid instruments especially for ticker CME_MINI:ES1! and works best on intraday timeframes like the 5-minute or 1-minute chart.
Core Logic
This strategy builds a composite Momentum Score by combining:
Price Location: Relative to 100 SMA, 1000 EMA, and VWAP (trend / regime filter).
RSI: Overbought/oversold and mid-zone strength.
VWMO (Volume-Weighted Momentum): Direction and strength of volume-weighted price drift.
ADX: Trend strength filter (high vs low trend environment).
Full Stoch (%K): Short-term exhaustion and mean-reversion context.
CCI: Overbought/oversold turns (key trigger).
MFI: Volume-confirmed buying/selling pressure.
ATR Regime: High vs low volatility environment.
Cumulative Delta: Whether net aggressor flow is rising or falling.
From this, a single Momentum Score is computed each bar:
Longs: Taken when the score is depressed (scoreLow) and CCI crosses up from oversold.
Shorts: Taken when the score is elevated (scoreHigh) and CCI crosses down from overbought.
Risk Management & Trade Logic
Max Daily Trades: Hard cap on entries per day.
Hard Stop: Fixed % stop based on entry price.
Profit Target: Target ATR Multiplier × main ATR from entry.
Breakeven Logic: Optional; moves stop to breakeven (plus optional offset) after price moves a configurable multiple of the main ATR in your favor.
Trailing Stop (Separate ATR): Optional; uses its own ATR length and ATR-based trigger and distance. This lets you run slower ATR for targets while using a tighter, more reactive ATR for the trail.
Session Control
Trading Window: Optional session filter (e.g., 09:30–16:00). Entries are only allowed inside the defined window.
Force Flat at Session End: Option to automatically close all open positions when the session ends.
Visuals
The script plots entry arrows and a compact dashboard displaying: current Momentum Score, daily trade usage, and CCI status.

Impulse Reactor RSI-SMA Trend Indicator [ApexLegion]Impulse Reactor RSI-SMA Trend Indicator
Introduction and Theoretical Background
Design Rationale
Standard indicators frequently generate binary 'BUY' or 'SELL' signals without accounting for the broader market context. This often results in erratic "Flip-Flop" behavior, where signals are triggered indiscriminately regardless of the prevailing volatility regime.
Impulse Reactor was engineered to address this limitation by unifying two critical requirements: Quantitative Rigor and Execution Flexibility.
The Solution
Composite Analytical Framework This script is not a simple visual overlay of existing indicators. It is an algorithmic synthesis designed to function as a unified decision-making engine. The primary objective was to implement rigorous quantitative analysis (Volatility Normalization, Structural Filtering) directly within an alert-enabled framework. This architecture is designed to process signals through strict, multi-factor validation protocols before generating real-time notifications, allowing users to focus on structurally validated setups without manual monitoring.
How It Works
This is not a simple visual mashup. It utilizes a cross-validation algorithm where the Trend Structure acts as a gatekeeper for Momentum signals:
Logic over Lag: Unlike simple moving average crossovers, this script uses a 15-layer Gradient Ribbon to detect "Laminar Flow." If the ribbon is knotted (Compression), the system mathematically suppresses all signals.
Volatility Normalization: The core calculation adapts to ATR (Average True Range). This means the indicator automatically expands in volatile markets and contracts in quiet ones, maintaining accuracy without constant manual tweaking.
Adaptive Signal Thresholding: It incorporates an 'Anti-Greed' algorithm (Dynamic Thresholding) that automatically adjusts entry criteria based on trend duration. This logic aims to mitigate the risk of entering positions during periods of statistical trend exhaustion.
Why Use It?
Market State Decoding: The gradient Ribbon visualizes the underlying trend phase in real-time.
◦ Cyan/Blue Flow: Strong Bullish Trend (Laminar Flow).
◦ Magenta/Pink Flow: Strong Bearish Trend.
◦ Compressed/Knotted: When the ribbon lines are tightly squeezed or overlapping, it signals Consolidation. The system filters signals here to avoid chop.
Noise Reduction: The goal is not to catch every pivot, but to isolate high-confidence setups. The logic explicitly filters out minor fluctuations to help maintain position alignment with the broader trend.
⚖️ Chapter 1: System Architecture
Introduction: Composite Analytical Framework
System Overview
Impulse Reactor serves as a comprehensive technical analysis engine designed to synthesize three distinct market dimensions—Momentum, Volatility, and Trend Structure—into a unified decision-making framework. Unlike traditional methods that analyze these metrics in isolation, this system functions as a central processing unit that integrates disparate data streams to construct a coherent model of market behavior.
Operational Objective
The primary objective is to transition from single-dimensional signal generation to a multi-factor assessment model. By fusing data from the Impulse Core (Volatility), Gradient Oscillator (Momentum), and Structural Baseline (Trend), the system aims to filter out stochastic noise and identify high-probability trade setups grounded in quantitative confluence.
Market Microstructure Analysis: Limitations of Conventional Models
Extensive backtesting and quantitative analysis have identified three critical inefficiencies in standard oscillator-based strategies:
• Bounded Oscillator Limitations (The "Oscillation Trap"): Traditional indicators such as RSI or Stochastics are mathematically constrained between fixed values (0 to 100). In strong trending environments, these metrics often saturate in "overbought" or "oversold" zones. Consequently, traders relying on static thresholds frequently exit structurally valid positions prematurely or initiate counter-trend trades against prevailing momentum, resulting in suboptimal performance.
• Quantitative Blindness to Quality: Standard moving averages and trend indicators often fail to distinguish the qualitative nature of price movement. They treat low-volume drift and high-velocity expansion identically. This inability to account for "Volatility Quality" leads to delayed responsiveness during critical market events.
• Fractal Dissonance (Timeframe Disconnect): Financial markets exhibit fractal characteristics where trends on lower timeframes may contradict higher timeframe structures. Manual integration of multi-timeframe analysis increases cognitive load and susceptibility to human error, often resulting in conflicting biases at the point of execution.
Core Design Principles
To mitigate the aforementioned systemic inefficiencies, Impulse Reactor employs a modular architecture governed by three foundational principles:
Principle A:
Volatility Precursor Analysis Market mechanics demonstrate that volatility expansion often functions as a leading indicator for directional price movement. The system is engineered to detect "Volatility Deviation" — specifically, the divergence between short-term and long-term volatility baselines—prior to its manifestation in price action. This allows for entry timing aligned with the expansion phase of market volatility.
Principle B:
Momentum Density Visualization The system replaces singular momentum lines with a "Momentum Density" model utilizing a 15-layer Simple Moving Average (SMA) Ribbon.
• Concept: This visualization represents the aggregate strength and consistency of the trend.
• Application: A fully aligned and expanded ribbon indicates a robust trend structure ("Laminar Flow") capable of withstanding minor counter-trend noise, whereas a compressed ribbon signals consolidation or structural weakness.
Principle C:
Adaptive Confluence Protocols Signal validity is strictly governed by a multi-dimensional confluence logic. The system suppresses signal generation unless there is synchronized confirmation across all three analytical vectors:
1. Volatility: Confirmed expansion via the Impulse Core.
2. Momentum: Directional alignment via the Hybrid Oscillator.
3. Structure: Trend validation via the Baseline. This strict filtering mechanism significantly reduces false positives in non-trending (choppy) environments while maintaining sensitivity to genuine breakouts.
🔍 Chapter 2: Core Modules & Algorithmic Logic
Module A: Impulse Core (Normalized Volatility Deviation)
Operational Logic The Impulse Core functions as a volatility-normalized momentum gauge rather than a standard oscillator. It is designed to identify "Volatility Contraction" (Squeeze) and "Volatility Expansion" phases by quantifying the divergence between short-term and long-term volatility states.
Volatility Z-Score Normalization
The formula implements a custom normalization algorithm. Unlike standard oscillators that rely on absolute price changes, this logic calculates the Z-Score of the Volatility Spread.
◦ Numerator: (atr_f - atr_s) captures the raw momentum of volatility expansion.
◦ Denominator: (std_f + 1e-6) standardizes this value against historical variance.
◦ Result: This allows the indicator scales consistently across assets (e.g., Bitcoin vs. Euro) without manual recalibration.
f_impulse() =>
atr_f = ta.atr(fastLen) // Fast Volatility Baseline
atr_s = ta.atr(slowLen) // Slow Volatility Baseline
std_f = ta.stdev(atr_f, devLen) // Volatility Standard Deviation
(atr_f - atr_s) / (std_f + 1e-6) // Normalized Differential Calculation
Algorithmic Framework
• Differential Calculation: The system computes the spread between a Fast Volatility Baseline (ATR-10) and a Slow Volatility Baseline (ATR-30).
• Normalization Protocol: To standardize consistency across diverse asset classes (e.g., Forex vs. Crypto), the raw differential is divided by the standard deviation of the volatility itself over a 30-period lookback.
• Signal Generation:
◦ Contraction (Squeeze): When the Fast ATR compresses below the Slow ATR, it registers a potential volatility buildup phase.
◦ Expansion (Release): A rapid divergence of the Fast ATR above the Slow ATR signals a confirmed volatility expansion, validating the strength of the move.
Module B: Gradient Oscillator (RSI-SMA Hybrid)
Design Rationale To mitigate the "noise" and "false reversal" signals common in single-line oscillators (like standard RSI), this module utilizes a 15-Layer Gradient Ribbon to visualize momentum density and persistence.
Technical Architecture
• Ribbon Array: The system generates 15 sequential Simple Moving Averages (SMA) applied to a volatility-adjusted RSI source. The length of each layer increases incrementally.
• State Analysis:
Momentum Alignment (Laminar Flow): When all 15 layers are expanded and parallel, it indicates a robust trend where buying/selling pressure is distributed evenly across multiple timeframes. This state helps filter out premature "overbought/oversold" signals.
• Consolidation (Compression): When the distance between the fastest layer (Layer 1) and the slowest layer (Layer 15) approaches zero or the layers intersect, the system identifies a "Non-Tradable Zone," preventing entries during choppy market conditions.
// Laminar Flow Validation
f_validate_trend() =>
// Calculate spread between Ribbon layers
ribbon_spread = ta.stdev(ribbon_array, 15)
// Only allow signals if Ribbon is expanded (Laminar Flow)
is_flowing = ribbon_spread > min_expansion_threshold
// If compressed (Knotted), force signal to false
is_flowing ? signal : na
Module C: Adaptive Signal Filtering (Behavioral Bias Mitigation)
This subsystem, operating as an algorithmic "Anti-Greed" Mechanism, addresses the statistical tendency for signal degradation following prolonged trends.
Dynamic Threshold Adjustment
• Win Streak Detection: The algorithm internally tracks the outcome of closed trade cycles.
• Sensitivity Multiplier: Upon detecting consecutive successful signals in the same direction, a Penalty_Factor is applied to the entry logic.
• Operational Impact: This effectively raises the Required_Slope threshold for subsequent signals. For example, after three consecutive bullish signals, the system requires a 30% steeper trend angle to validate a fourth entry. This enforces stricter discipline during extended trends to reduce the probability of entering at the point of trend exhaustion.
Anti-Greed Logic: Dynamic Threshold Calculation
f_adjust_threshold(base_slope, win_streak) =>
// Adds a 10% penalty to the difficulty for every consecutive win
penalty_factor = 0.10
risk_scaler = 1 + (win_streak * penalty_factor)
// Returns the new, harder-to-reach threshold
base_slope * risk_scaler
Module D: Trend Baseline (Triple-Smoothed Structure)
The Trend Baseline serves as the structural filter for all signals. It employs a Triple-Smoothed Hybrid Algorithm designed to balance lag reduction with noise filtration.
Smoothing Stages
1. Volatility Banding: Utilizes a SuperTrend-based calculation to establish the upper and lower boundaries of price action.
2. Weighted Filter: Applies a Weighted Moving Average (WMA) to prioritize recent price data.
3. Exponential Smoothing: A final Exponential Moving Average (EMA) pass is applied to create a seamless baseline curve.
Functionality
This "Heavy" baseline resists minor intraday volatility spikes while remaining responsive to sustained structural shifts. A signal is only considered valid if the price action maintains structural integrity relative to this baseline
🚦 Chapter 3: Risk Management & Exit Protocols
Quantitative Risk Management (TP/SL & Trailing)
Foundational Architecture: Volatility-Adjusted Geometry Unlike strategies relying on static nominal values, Impulse Reactor establishes dynamic risk boundaries derived from quantitative volatility metrics. This design aligns trade invalidation levels mathematically with the current market regime.
• ATR-Based Dynamic Bracketing:
The protocol calculates Stop-Loss and Take-Profit levels by applying Fibonacci coefficients (Default: 0.786 for SL / 1.618 for TP) to the Average True Range (ATR).
◦ High Volatility Environments: The risk bands automatically expand to accommodate wider variance, preventing premature exits caused by standard market noise.
◦ Low Volatility Environments: The bands contract to tighten risk parameters, thereby dynamically adjusting the Risk-to-Reward (R:R) geometry.
• Close-Validation Protocol ("Soft Stop"):
Institutional algorithms frequently execute liquidity sweeps—driving prices briefly below key support levels to accumulate inventory.
◦ Mechanism: When the "Soft Stop" feature is enabled, the system filters out intraday volatility spikes. The stop-loss is conditional; execution is triggered only if the candle closes beyond the invalidation threshold.
◦ Strategic Advantage: This logic distinguishes between momentary price wicks and genuine structural breakdowns, preserving positions during transient volatility.
• Step-Function Trailing Mechanism:
To protect unrealized PnL while allowing for normal price breathing, a two-phase trailing methodology is employed:
◦ Phase 1 (Activation): The trailing function remains dormant until the price advances by a pre-defined percentage threshold.
◦ Phase 2 (Dynamic Floor): Once armed, the stop level creates a moving floor, adjusting relative to price action while maintaining a volatility-based (ATR) buffer to systematically protect unrealized PnL.
• Algorithmic Exit Protocols (Dynamic Liquidity Analysis)
◦ Rationale: Inefficiencies of Static Targets Static "Take Profit" levels often result in suboptimal exits. They compel traders to close positions based on arbitrary figures rather than evolving market structure, potentially capping upside during significant trends or retaining positions while the underlying trend structure deteriorates.
◦ Solution: Structural Integrity Assessment The system utilizes a Dynamic Liquidity Engine to continuously audit the validity of the position. Instead of targeting a specific price point, the algorithm evaluates whether the trend remains statistically robust.
Multi-Factor Exit Logic (The Tri-Vector System)
The Smart Exit protocol executes only when specific algorithmic invalidation criteria are met:
• 1. Momentum Exhaustion (Confluence Decay): The system monitors a 168-hour rolling average of the Confluence Score. A significant deviation below this historical baseline indicates momentum exhaustion, signaling that the driving force behind the trend has dissipated prior to a price reversal. This enables preemptive exits before a potential drawdown.
• 2. Statistical Over-Extension (Mean Reversion): Utilizing the core volatility logic, the system identifies instances where price deviates beyond 2.0 standard deviations from the mean. While the trend may be technically bullish, this statistical anomaly suggests a high probability of mean reversion (elastic snap-back), triggering a defensive exit to capitalize on peak valuation.
• 3. Oscillator Rejection (Immediate Pivot): To manage sudden V-shaped volatility, the system monitors RSI pivots. If a sharp "Pivot High" or divergence is detected, the protocol triggers an immediate "Peak Exit," bypassing standard trend filters to secure liquidity during high-velocity reversals.
🎨 Chapter 4: Visualization Guide
Gradient Oscillator Ribbon
The 15-layer SMA ribbon visualized via plot(r1...r15) represents the "Momentum Density" of the market.
• Visuals:
◦ Cyan/Blue Ribbon: Indicates Bullish Momentum.
◦ Pink/Magenta Ribbon: Indicates Bearish Momentum.
• Interpretation:
◦ Laminar Flow: When the ribbon expands widely and flows in parallel, it signifies a robust trend where momentum is distributed evenly across timeframes. This is the ideal state for trend-following.
◦ Compression (Consolidation): If the ribbon becomes narrow, twisted, or knotted, it indicates a "Non-Tradable Zone" where the market lacks a unified direction. Traders are advised to wait for clarity.
◦ Over-Extension: If the top layer crosses the Overbought (85) or Oversold (15) lines, it visually warns of potential market overheating.
Trend Baseline
The thick, color-changing line plotted via plot(baseline) represents the Structural Backbone of the market.
• Visuals: Changes color based on the trend direction (Blue for Bullish, Pink for Bearish).
• Interpretation:
Structural Filter: Long positions are statistically favored only when price action sustains above this baseline, while short positions are favored below it.
Dynamic Support/Resistance: The baseline acts as a dynamic support level during uptrends and resistance during downtrends.
Entry Signals & Labels
Text labels ("Long Entry", "Short Entry") appear when the system detects high-probability setups grounded in quantitative confluence.
• Visuals: Labeled signals appear above/below specific candles.
• Interpretation:
These signals represent moments where Volatility (Expansion), Momentum (Alignment), and Structure (Trend) are synchronized.
Smart Exit: Labels such as "Smart Exit" or "Peak Exit" appear when the system detects momentum exhaustion or structural decay, prompting a defensive exit to preserve capital.
Dynamic TP/SL Boxes
The semi-transparent colored zones drawn via fill() represent the risk management geometry.
• Visuals: Colored boxes extending from the entry point to the Take Profit (TP) and Stop Loss (SL) levels.
• Function:
Volatility-Adjusted Geometry: Unlike static price targets, these boxes expand during high volatility (to prevent wicks from stopping you out) and contract during low volatility (to optimize Risk-to-Reward ratios).
SAR + MACD Glow
Small glowing shapes appearing above or below candles.
• Visuals: Triangle or circle glows near the price bars.
• Interpretation:
This visual indicates a secondary confirmation where Parabolic SAR and MACD align with the main trend direction. It serves as an additional confluence factor to increase confidence in the trade setup.
Support/Resistance Table
A small table located at the bottom-right of the chart.
• Function: Automatically identifies and displays recent Pivot Highs (Resistance) and Pivot Lows (Support).
• Interpretation: These levels can be used as potential targets for Take Profit or invalidation points for manual Stop Loss adjustments.
🖥️ Chapter 5: Dashboard & Operational Guide
Integrated Analytics Panel (Dashboard Overview)
To facilitate rapid decision-making without manual calculation, the system aggregates critical market dimensions into a unified "Heads-Up Display" (HUD). This panel monitors real-time metrics across multiple timeframes and analytical vectors.
A. Intermediate Structure (12H Trend)
• Function: Anchors the intraday analysis to the broader market structure using a 12-hour rolling window.
• Interpretation:
◦ Bullish (> +0.5%): Indicates a positive structural bias. Long setups align with the macro flow.
◦ Bearish (< -0.5%): Indicates structural weakness. Short setups are statistically favored.
◦ Neutral: Represents a ranging environment where the Confluence Score becomes the primary weighting factor.
B. Composite Confluence Score (Signal Confidence)
• Definition: A probability metric derived from the synchronization of Volatility (Impulse Core), Momentum (Ribbon), and Trend (Baseline).
• Grading Scale:
Strong Buy/Sell (> 7.0 / < 3.0): Indicates full alignment across all three vectors. Represents a "Prime Setup" eligible for standard position sizing.
Buy/Sell (5.0–7.0 / 3.0–5.0): Indicates a valid trend but with moderate volatility confirmation.
Neutral: Signals conflicting data (e.g., Bullish Momentum vs. Bearish Structure). Trading is not recommended ("No-Trade Zone").
C. Statistical Deviation Status (Mean Reversion)
• Logic: Utilizes Bollinger Band deviation principles to quantify how far price has stretched from the statistical mean (20 SMA).
• Alert States:
Over-Extended (> 2.0 SD): Warning that price is statistically likely to revert to the mean (Elastic Snap-back), even if the trend remains technically valid. New entries are discouraged in this zone.
Normal: Price is within standard distribution limits, suitable for trend-following entries.
D. Volatility Regime Classification
• Metric: Compares current ATR against a 100-period historical baseline to categorize the market state.
• Regimes:
Low Volatility (Lvl < 1.0): Market Compression. Often precedes volatility expansion events.
Mid Volatility (Lvl 1.0 - 1.5): Standard operating environment.
High Volatility (Lvl > 1.5): Elevated market stress. Risk parameters should be adjusted (e.g., reduced position size) to account for increased variance.
E. Performance Telemetry
• Function: Displays the historical reliability of the Trend Baseline for the current asset and timeframe.
• Operational Threshold: If the displayed Win Rate falls below 40%, it suggests the current market behavior is incoherent (choppy) and does not respect trend logic. In such cases, switching assets or timeframes is recommended.
Operational Protocols & Signal Decoding
Visual Interpretation Standards
• Laminar Flow (Trade Confirmation): A valid trend is visually confirmed when the 15-layer SMA Ribbon is fully expanded and parallel. This indicates distributed momentum across timeframes.
• Consolidation (No-Trade): If the ribbon appears twisted, knotted, or compressed, the market lacks a unified directional vector.
• Baseline Interaction: The Triple-Smoothed Baseline acts as a dynamic support/resistance filter. Long positions remain valid only while price sustains above this structure.
System Calibration (Settings)
• Adaptive Signal Filtering (Prev. Anti-Greed): Enabled by default. This logic automatically raises the required trend slope threshold following consecutive wins to mitigate behavioral bias.
• Impulse Sensitivity: Controls the reactivity of the Volatility Core. Higher settings capture faster moves but may introduce more noise.

ACCDv3# ACCDv3 - Accumulation/Distribution MACD with Divergence Detection
## Overview
**ACCDv3** (Accumulation/Distribution MACD Version 3) is an advanced volume-weighted momentum indicator that combines the Accumulation/Distribution (A/D) line with MACD methodology and divergence detection. It helps identify trend strength, momentum shifts, and potential reversals by analyzing volume-weighted price movements.
## Key Features
- **Volume-Weighted MACD**: Applies MACD calculation to volume-weighted A/D values for earlier, more reliable signals
- **Divergence Detection**: Identifies when A/D trend diverges from MACD momentum
- **Volume Strength Filtering**: Distinguishes high-volume confirmations from low-volume noise
- **Color-Coded Histogram**: 4-color system showing momentum direction and volume strength
- **Real-Time Alerts**: Background colors and alert conditions for bullish/bearish divergences
## Components
### 1. Accumulation/Distribution (A/D) Line
The A/D line measures buying and selling pressure by comparing the close price to the trading range, weighted by volume:
```
A/D = Σ ((2 × Close - Low - High) / (High - Low)) × Volume
```
- **Rising A/D**: More accumulation (buying pressure)
- **Falling A/D**: More distribution (selling pressure)
- **Doji Handling**: When High = Low, contribution is zero (avoids division errors)
### 2. Volume-Weighted MACD
Instead of simple EMAs, the indicator weights A/D values by volume:
- **Fast Line** (default 12): `EMA(A/D × Volume, 12) / EMA(Volume, 12)`
- **Slow Line** (default 26): `EMA(A/D × Volume, 26) / EMA(Volume, 26)`
- **MACD Line**: Fast Line - Slow Line (green line)
- **Signal Line** (default 9): EMA or SMA of MACD (orange line)
- **Histogram**: MACD - Signal (color-coded columns)
This volume-weighting ensures that periods with higher volume have greater influence on the indicator values.
### 3. Histogram Color System
The histogram uses 4 distinct colors based on **direction** and **volume strength**:
| Condition | Color | Meaning |
|-----------|-------|---------|
| Rising + High Volume | **Dark Green** (#1B5E20) | Strong bullish momentum with volume confirmation |
| Rising + Low Volume | **Light Teal** (#26A69A) | Bullish momentum but weak volume (less reliable) |
| Falling + High Volume | **Dark Red** (#B71C1C) | Strong bearish momentum with volume confirmation |
| Falling + Low Volume | **Light Red/Pink** (#FFCDD2) | Bearish momentum but weak volume (less reliable) |
Additional shading:
- **Light Cyan** (#B2DFDB): Positive but not rising (momentum stalling)
- **Bright Red** (#FF5252): Negative and accelerating down
### 4. Divergence Detection
Divergence occurs when A/D trend and MACD momentum move in opposite directions:
#### Bullish Divergence (Green Background)
- **Condition**: A/D is trending up BUT MACD is negative and trending down
- **Interpretation**: Accumulation increasing while momentum appears weak
- **Signal**: Potential bullish reversal or continuation
- **Action**: Look for entry opportunities or hold long positions
#### Bearish Divergence (Red Background)
- **Condition**: A/D is trending down BUT MACD is positive and trending up
- **Interpretation**: Distribution increasing while momentum appears strong
- **Signal**: Potential bearish reversal or weakening uptrend
- **Action**: Consider exits, tighten stops, or prepare for reversal
## Parameters
| Parameter | Default | Range | Description |
|-----------|---------|-------|-------------|
| **Fast Length** | 12 | 1-50 | Period for fast EMA (shorter = more sensitive) |
| **Slow Length** | 26 | 1-100 | Period for slow EMA (longer = smoother) |
| **Signal Smoothing** | 9 | 1-50 | Period for signal line (MACD smoothing) |
| **Signal Line MA Type** | EMA | SMA/EMA | Moving average type for signal calculation |
| **Volume MA Length** | 20 | 5-100 | Period for volume average (strength filter) |
## Usage Guide
### Reading the Indicator
1. **MACD Lines (Green & Orange)**
- **Crossovers**: When green crosses above orange = bullish, below = bearish
- **Distance**: Wider gap = stronger momentum
- **Zero Line**: Above = bullish bias, below = bearish bias
2. **Histogram Colors**
- Focus on **dark colors** (dark green/red) for high-confidence signals
- Be cautious with **light colors** (teal/pink) - wait for volume confirmation
- Watch for **rising red bars** (V-bottom pattern) = potential bullish reversal
- Watch for **falling green bars** (Λ-top pattern) = potential bearish reversal
3. **Background Divergence Alerts**
- **Green background**: Bullish divergence - consider long entries
- **Red background**: Bearish divergence - consider exits or shorts
- Best used in combination with price action and support/resistance levels
### Trading Strategies
#### Trend Following
1. Wait for MACD to cross above zero line with dark green histogram
2. Enter long when histogram shows consecutive dark green bars
3. Exit when histogram turns light green or red appears
#### Divergence Trading
1. Wait for background divergence alert (green or red)
2. Confirm with price action (support/resistance, candlestick patterns)
3. Enter on next dark-colored histogram bar in divergence direction
4. Set stops beyond recent swing high/low
#### Volume Confirmation
1. Ignore signals during low-volume periods (light colors)
2. Take aggressive positions during high-volume confirmations (dark colors)
3. Use volume strength as position sizing guide (larger size on dark bars)
### Best Practices
✓ **Combine with price action**: Don't rely on indicator alone
✓ **Wait for dark colors**: High-volume bars are more reliable
✓ **Watch for divergences**: Early warning signs of reversals
✓ **Use multiple timeframes**: Confirm signals across 1m, 5m, 15m
✓ **Respect zero line**: Trading direction should align with MACD side
✗ **Don't chase light-colored signals**: Low volume = lower reliability
✗ **Don't ignore context**: Market structure and levels matter
✗ **Don't over-trade**: Wait for clear, high-volume setups
✗ **Don't ignore alerts**: Divergences are early warnings
## Technical Details
### Volume-Weighted Calculation Method
Traditional MACD uses simple price EMAs. ACCDv3 weights each A/D value by its corresponding volume:
```pine
// Volume-weighted fast EMA
close_vol_fast = ta.ema(ad × volume, fast_length)
vol_fast = ta.ema(volume, fast_length)
vw_ad_fast = close_vol_fast / vol_fast
// Same for slow EMA
close_vol_slow = ta.ema(ad × volume, slow_length)
vol_slow = ta.ema(volume, slow_length)
vw_ad_slow = close_vol_slow / vol_slow
// MACD is the difference
macd = vw_ad_fast - vw_ad_slow
```
This ensures high-volume periods have proportionally more impact on the indicator.
### Volume Strength Filter
Determines whether current volume is above or below average:
```pine
vol_avg = ta.sma(volume, vol_length)
vol_strength = volume > vol_avg
```
Used to select dark (high volume) vs light (low volume) histogram colors.
### Divergence Logic
```pine
// A/D trending up if above its 5-period SMA
ad_trend = ad > ta.sma(ad, 5)
// MACD trending up if above zero
macd_trend = macd > 0
// Divergence when trends oppose
divergence = ad_trend != macd_trend
// Specific conditions
bullish_divergence = ad_trend and not macd_trend and macd < 0
bearish_divergence = not ad_trend and macd_trend and macd > 0
```

## Example Scenarios
### Scenario 1: Strong Bullish Signal
- **Chart**: MACD crosses above zero line
- **Histogram**: Dark green bars (#1B5E20) appearing
- **Volume**: Above 20-period average
- **Action**: Enter long, strong momentum with volume confirmation
### Scenario 2: Weak Bearish Signal
- **Chart**: MACD crosses below zero line
- **Histogram**: Light pink bars (#FFCDD2) appearing
- **Volume**: Below 20-period average
- **Action**: Avoid shorting, low volume = unreliable signal
### Scenario 3: Bullish Divergence Reversal
- **Chart**: Price making lower lows
- **Indicator**: A/D line trending up, MACD negative
- **Background**: Green shading appears
- **Histogram**: Transitions from red to dark green
- **Action**: Look for long entry on next dark green bar
### Scenario 4: V-Bottom Reversal
- **Chart**: Downtrend in place
- **Histogram**: Red bars start rising (becoming less negative)
- **Pattern**: Forms "V" shape at bottom
- **Confirmation**: Transitions to dark green bars
- **Action**: Bullish reversal signal, consider long entry
## Timeframe Recommendations

Value Charts by Mark Helweg1. Introduction
This script is a simplified implementation of the Value Charts concept introduced by Mark Helweg and David Stendahl in their work on “Dynamic Trading Indicators”. It converts raw price into value units by normalizing distance from a dynamic fair‑value line, making it easier to see when price is relatively overvalued or undervalued across different markets and timeframes. The code focuses on plotting Value Chart candlesticks and clean visual bands, keeping the logic close to the original idea while remaining lightweight for intraday and swing trading.
2. Key Features
- Dynamic fair‑value axis
Uses a moving average of the chosen price source as the fair‑value line and a volatility‑based deviation (smoothed True Range) to scale all price moves into comparable value units.
- Normalized Value Chart candlesticks
OHLC prices are transformed into value units and displayed as a dedicated candlestick panel, visually similar to standard candles but detached from raw price, highlighting relative extremes instead of absolute levels.
- Custom upper and lower visual limits
User‑defined upper and lower bands frame the majority of action and emphasize extreme value zones, helping the trader spot potential exhaustion or mean‑reversion conditions at a glance.
- Clean, publishing‑friendly layout
Only the normalized candles and three simple reference lines (top, bottom, zero) are plotted, keeping the chart uncluttered and compliant with presentation standards for published scripts.
3. How to Use
1. Attach the indicator to a separate pane (overlay = false) on any market and timeframe you trade.
2. Set the “Period (Value Chart)” to control how fast the fair‑value line adapts: shorter values react more quickly, longer values smooth more.
3. Adjust the “Volatility Factor” so that most candles stay between the upper and lower limits, with only true extremes touching or exceeding them.
4. Use the Value Chart candlesticks as a relative overbought/oversold tool:
- Candles pressing into the Top band suggest overvalued conditions and potential for pullbacks or reversions.
- Candles pressing into the Bottom band suggest undervalued conditions and potential for bounces.
5. Combine the signals with your existing price‑action, volume, or trend‑filter rules on the main chart; the Value Chart panel is designed as a context and timing tool, not a standalone trading system.
UM OBV with Signal (EMA/SMA/WMA/NWE)SUMMARY
A visual OBV trend tool that highlights bullish and bearish volume pressure using smart smoothing and intuitive color-coding.
⸻
WHY THIS INDICATOR?
There are only three variables you can adjust on a chart: price, volume, and time. I wanted a good volume indicator.
⸻
DESCRIPTION
This tool extends classic On-Balance Volume with selectable trend smoothing (EMA, SMA, WMA, or NWE) and visual directional coloring on both OBV and the Signal line. Green shows bullish volume flow, red shows bearish volume flow. Optional crossover markers help confirm shifts in buying pressure.
Nadaraya-Watson Regression (NWE) provides a smooth, non-MA alternative for filtering volume trend noise, and optional dual-NWE coloring helps reduce false flips in choppy markets.
⸻
THE CHART
The indicator is added twice at the bottom; once with a 21 EMA and again with a 55 SMA. The chart has text and illustrations to show where the OBV flipped colors. More red equals more selling pressure. More green equals more buying volume or pressure.
⸻
DEFAULTS
• OBV smoothing length = 3
• Signal = 21 EMA
• Crossover bubbles are hidden/off by default
⸻
SUGGESTED USES
• Combine with price structure, momentum, or volatility tools to confirm trend strength.
• Try switching between EMA and NWE on faster intraday charts to see volume trend earlier.
• Use crossover signals as secondary confirmation rather than standalone entries.
• Use this indicator with your other favorite indicators for confirmation.
• Select timeframes suitable to your style of trading.
• I use the 30-minute, 6-hour, and Daily timeframes.
• I question myself if I am buying something with this indicator being red.
• Experiment with various timeframes and settings.
⸻
AUTHOR OBSERVATIONS
OBV often turns before price—especially when volume surges ahead of breakout levels.
NWE tends to smooth choppy OBV much better than traditional moving averages in noisy markets.
Look for Signal color flips at key support/resistance or volatility inflection points.
⸻
ALERTS
Right-click the indicator and choose Add alert… – two presets are available:
• Bullish OBV Turning Up
• Bearish OBV Turning Down

RSI Profile [Kodexius]RSI Profile is an advanced technical indicator that turns the classic RSI into a distribution profile instead of a single oscillating line. Rather than only showing where the RSI is at the current bar, it displays where the RSI has spent most of its time or most of its volume over a user defined lookback period.
The script builds a histogram of RSI values between 0 and 100, splits that range into configurable bins, and then projects the result to the right side of the chart. This gives you a clear visual representation of the RSI structure, including the Point of Control (POC), the Value Area High (VAH), and the Value Area Low (VAL). The POC marks the RSI level with the highest activity, while VAH and VAL bracket the percentage based value area around it.
By combining standard RSI, a distribution profile, and value area logic, this tool lets you study RSI behavior statistically instead of only bar by bar. You can immediately see whether the current RSI reading is located inside the dominant zone, extended above it, or depressed below it, and whether the recent regime has been biased toward overbought, oversold, or neutral territory. This is particularly useful for swing traders, mean reversion systems, and anyone who wants to integrate RSI context into a more profile oriented workflow.
🔹 Features
1. RSI-Based Distribution Profile
-Builds a histogram of RSI values between 0 and 100.
-The RSI range is divided into a user-defined number of bins (e.g., 30 bins).
-Each bin represents a band of RSI values, such as 0–3.33, 3.33–6.66, ..., 96.66–100.
-For each bar in the lookback period, the script:
-Finds which bin the RSI value belongs to
Adds either:
-1.0 → if using time/frequency
-volume → if using volume-weighted RSI distribution
This creates a clear profile of where RSI has been concentrated over the chosen lookback window.
2. Time / Volume Weighting Mode
Under Profile Settings, you can choose:
-Weight by Volume = false
→ Profile is built using time spent at each RSI level (frequency).
-Weight by Volume = true
→ Profile is built using volume traded at each RSI level.
This flexibility allows you to decide whether you want:
-A pure momentum structure (time spent at each RSI)
-Or a participation-weighted structure (where higher-volume zones are emphasized)
3. Configurable Lookback & Resolution
-Profile Lookback: number of historical bars to analyze.
-Number of Bins: controls the resolution of the histogram:
Fewer bins → smoother, fewer gaps
More bins → more detail, but potentially more visual sparsity
-Profile Width (Bars): defines how wide the histogram extends into the future (visually), converted into time using average bar duration.
This provides a balance between performance, clarity, and visual density.
4. Value Area, POC, VAH, VAL
The script computes:
-POC (Point of Control)
→ The RSI bin with the highest total value (time or volume).
-Value Area (VA)
→ The range of RSI bins that contain a user-specified percentage of total activity (e.g., 70%).
-VAH & VAL
→ Upper and lower RSI boundaries of this Value Area.
These are then drawn as horizontal lines and labeled:
-POC line and label
-VAH line and label
-VAL line and label
This gives you a profile-style view similar to classical volume profile, but entirely on the RSI axis.
5. Color Coding & Visual Design
The histogram bars (boxes) are colored using a smart scheme:
-Below 30 RSI → Oversold zone, uses the Oversold Color (default: green).
-Above 70 RSI → Overbought zone, uses the Overbought Color (default: red).
-Between 30 and 70 RSI → Neutral zone, uses a gradient between:
A soft blue at lower mid levels
A soft orange at higher mid levels
Additional styling:
-POC bin is highlighted in bright yellow.
-Bins inside the Value Area → lower transparency (more solid).
-Bins outside the Value Area → higher transparency (faded).
This makes it easy to visually distinguish:
-Core RSI activity (VA)
-Extremes (oversold/overbought)
-The single dominant zone (POC)
🔹 Calculations
This section summarizes the core logic behind the script and highlights the main building blocks that power the profile.
1. Profile Structure and Bin Initialization
A custom Profile type groups together configuration, bins and drawing objects. During initialization, the script splits the 0 to 100 RSI range into evenly spaced bins, each represented by a Bin record:
method initBins(Profile p) =>
p.bins := array.new()
float step = 100.0 / p.binCount
for i = 0 to p.binCount - 1
float low = i * step
float high = (i + 1) * step
p.bins.push(Bin.new(low, high, 0.0, box(na)))
2. Filling the Profile Over the Lookback Window
On the last bar, the script clears previous drawings and walks backward through the selected lookback window. For each historical bar, it reads the RSI and volume series and feeds them into the profile:
if barstate.islast
myProfile.reset()
int start = math.max(0, bar_index - lookback)
int end = bar_index
for i = 0 to (end - start)
float r = rsi
float v = volume
if not na(r)
myProfile.add(r, v)
The add method converts each RSI value into a bin index and accumulates either a frequency count or the bar volume, depending on the chosen mode:
method add(Profile p, float rsiValue, float volumeValue) =>
int idx = int(rsiValue / (100.0 / p.binCount))
if idx >= p.binCount
idx := p.binCount - 1
if idx < 0
idx := 0
Bin targetBin = p.bins.get(idx)
float addedValue = p.useVolume ? volumeValue : 1.0
targetBin.value += addedValue
3. Finding POC and Building the Value Area
Inside the draw method, the script first scans all bins to determine the maximum value and the total sum. The bin with the highest value becomes the POC. The value area is then constructed by expanding from that center bin until the desired percentage of total activity is covered:
for in p.bins
totalVal += b.value
if b.value > maxVal
maxVal := b.value
pocIdx := i
float vaTarget = totalVal * (p.vaPercent / 100.0)
float currentVaVol = maxVal
int upIdx = pocIdx
int downIdx = pocIdx
while currentVaVol < vaTarget
float upVol = (upIdx < p.binCount - 1) ? p.bins.get(upIdx + 1).value : 0.0
float downVol = (downIdx > 0) ? p.bins.get(downIdx - 1).value : 0.0
if upVol == 0 and downVol == 0
break
if upVol >= downVol
upIdx += 1
currentVaVol += upVol
else
downIdx -= 1
currentVaVol += downVol
Sniper 50: The Trend Master [Pure Signal]Overview Sometimes, the simplest strategies are the deadliest. This indicator brings the legendary "EMA 50 Strategy" to your chart in its purest form. It is designed to capture major market trends and reversals immediately as they happen, stripping away complex filters that often cause lag.
Why the EMA 50? The 50-period Exponential Moving Average is widely regarded by institutional traders as the primary divider between bullish and bearish territory. This tool automates the monitoring of this key level.
How It Works The logic is raw and direct:
BUY Signal: Triggered immediately when the candle closes ABOVE the EMA 50.
SELL Signal: Triggered immediately when the candle closes BELOW the EMA 50.
Key Features
Zero Noise Technology: Includes a built-in state machine that prevents repetitive signals. You will receive exactly ONE signal when the trend flips, and silence until the next reversal.
Dynamic Visuals: The EMA line changes color (Green for Bullish, Red for Bearish) to give you instant context.
Lag-Free: unlike other tools that wait for multiple confirmations, this tool prioritizes speed to catch sharp moves (like sudden crashes or rallies).

Sniper VFI: Institutional Breakout & HeatmapDescription:
Overview This is a professional-grade momentum indicator designed to track Institutional Smart Money flow while filtering for high-probability breakout setups. It combines volume analysis, trend filtration, and price action triggers into a single dashboard.
How It Works The indicator operates on a three-step validation process:
Trend Filter: Uses a 150 EMA to define the major trend. Long positions are only permitted above the 150 EMA, and Short positions only below it.
Institutional Volume (VFI): Analyzes the Volume Flow Indicator to ensure Smart Money is participating in the move.
Micro-Breakout Trigger: Signals are only generated if the price breaks the High (for Longs) or Low (for Shorts) of the last 3 candles, ensuring immediate momentum.
Visual Guide & Legend
The Histogram (Volume & Momentum):
Bright Lime: Strong Bullish Impulse. Institutional money is flowing in, and momentum is accelerating.
Dark Green: Stable Uptrend. The trend is healthy.
Bright Red: Strong Bearish Impulse. Institutional money is flowing out, and downside momentum is accelerating.
Maroon: Stable Downtrend.
The Heatmap Tips (RSI Temperature):
Orange Tips: Overbought Warning (RSI > 70). The asset is heating up; caution is advised for new long entries. The opacity increases as RSI approaches 100.
White Tips: Oversold Warning (RSI < 30). The asset is extended to the downside.
The Signals (L/S):
L (Long): Confirmed entry. Trend is Up + VFI Positive + Price broke the recent 3-candle High.
S (Short): Confirmed entry. Trend is Down + VFI Negative + Price broke the recent 3-candle Low.
Note: This tool includes an alternating signal filter to prevent repetitive signals during trends. A Long signal will not repeat until a Short signal or a trend reset occurs.
Jenkins OscillatorAn oscillator designed to capture price movement relative to recent intra-candle volatility. Z-score normalization is applied to smoothed price and therefore should be read in terms of standard deviation AND direction.
Weeknights Guppy Trend Strength OscillatorBuilt a Guppy Oscillator which takes 22 different EMA's and uses an ATR to provide slope normalisation. The goal is to help the user determine strength of trend and see if momentum is slowing

UM VIX30/VIX Regime & Volatility Roll Yield
SUMMARY
A front-of-the-curve volatility indicator that compares spot VIX to a synthetic 30-day VIX (VIX30) built from VX1/VX2 futures, revealing early volatility pressure, regime shifts, and roll-yield transitions. Ideal for timing long/short volatility trades in VXX, UVXY, SVIX, and VIX futures.
DESCRIPTION
This indicator compares spot VIX to a synthetic 30-day constant-maturity volatility estimate (“VIX30”) built from VX1 and VX2 futures. The VIX30/VIX Ratio reveals short-term volatility pressure and regime shifts that traditional VX1/VX2 roll-yield alone often misses.
VIX30 is constructed using true calendar-day interpolation between VX1 and VX2, with VX1% and VX2% showing the real-time weights behind the 30-day volatility anchor. The table displays the volatility regime, the VX1/VX2 weights, spot-term roll yield (VIX30/VIX), and futures-term roll yield (VX2/VX1), giving a complete, front-of-the-curve perspective on volatility dynamics.
Use this to spot early volatility expansions, collapsing contango, and regime transitions that influence VXX, UVXY, SVIX, VX options, and VIX futures.
HOW IT WORKS
The script calculates the exact calendar days to expiration for the front two VIX futures. It then applies linear interpolation to blend VX1 and VX2 into a 30-day constant-maturity synthetic volatility measure (“VIX30”). Comparing VIX30 to spot VIX produces the VIX30/VIX Ratio, which highlights short-term volatility pressure and regime direction. A full term-structure table summarizes regime, VX1%/VX2% weights, and both spot-term and futures-term roll yields.
DEFAULT SETTINGS
VX1! and VX2! are used by default for front-month and second-month futures. These may be manually overridden if TradingView rolls contracts early. The default timeframe is 30 minutes, and the VIX30/VIX Ratio uses a 21-period EMA for regime smoothing. The historical threshold is set to 1.08, reflecting the long-run average relationship between VIX30 and VIX.
SUGGESTED USES
• Identify early volatility expansions before they appear in VX1/VX2 roll yield.
• Confirm contango/backwardation shifts with front-of-curve context.
• Time long/short volatility trades in VXX, UVXY, SVIX, and VX options.
• Monitor regime transitions (Low → Cautionary → High) to anticipate trend inflections.
• Combine with price action, Nadaraya-Watson trends, or MA color-flip systems for higher-confidence entries.
• MA red → green flips may signal opportunities to short volatility or increase equity exposure.
• MA green → red flips may signal opportunities to go long volatility, reduce equity exposure, or take short-equity positions.
ALERTS
Alerts trigger when the ratio crosses above or below the historical threshold or when the moving-average slope flips direction. A green flip signals rising volatility pressure; a red flip signals fading or collapsing volatility. These alert conditions can be used to automate long/short volatility bias shifts or trade-entry notifications.
FURTHER HINTS
• Increasing orange/red in the table suggests an emerging higher-volatility environment.
• SVIX (inverse volatility ETF) can trend strongly when volatility decays; on a 6-hour chart, MA green flips often align with attractive short-volatility opportunities.
• For long-volatility trades, consider shrinking to a 30-minute chart and watching for MA green → red flips as early entry cues.
• Experiment with different timeframes and smoothing lengths to match your trading style.
• Higher VIX30/VIX and VX2/VX1 roll yields generally imply faster decay in VXX, UVXY, and UVIX — or stronger upside momentum in SVIX.
• The author likes the 6-hour chart for short vol, and the 30-minute chart for long vol. Long vol trades are fast and furious so you want to be quick.
Altcoin Relative Macro StrengthAltcoin Relative Macro Strength
Overview
The Altcoin Relative Macro Strength indicator measures the altcoin market's price performance relative to global macroeconomic conditions. By comparing TOTAL3ES (total altcoin market capitalization excluding Bitcoin, Ethereum and stable coins) against a composite macro trend, the indicator identifies periods of relative overvaluation and undervaluation.
Methodology
Global Macro Trend Calculation:
The macro trend synthesizes three primary components:
- ISM PMI – A proxy for the business cycle phase
- Global Liquidity – An aggregate measure of major central bank balance sheets and broad money supply
- IWM (Russell 2000) – Small-cap equity exposure, reflecting risk-on/risk-off market sentiment
Global Liquidity is calculated as:
Fed Balance Sheet - Reverse Repo - Treasury General Account + U.S. M2 + China M2
The final Global Macro Trend is:
ISM PMI × Global Liquidity × IWM
Theoretical Framework:
The global macro trend integrates liquidity expansion/contraction with business cycle dynamics and small-cap equity performance. The inclusion of IWM reflects altcoins' tendency to behave as high-beta risk assets, exhibiting sensitivity similar to small-cap equities. This composite exhibits strong directional correlation with altcoin market movements, capturing the risk-on/risk-off dynamics that drive altcoin performance.
Interpretation
Primary Signal:
The histogram displays the rolling percentage change of TOTAL3ES relative to the global macro trend (default: 21-period average). Positive divergence indicates altcoins are outperforming macro conditions; negative divergence suggests underperformance relative to the underlying economic and risk environment.
Data Tables:
Alts/Macro Change – Percentage deviation of the altcoin market's average value from the Global Macro Trend's average over the specified period
Macro Trend – Directional assessment of the macro trend based on slope and trend agreement:
🔵 BULLISH ▲ – Positive slope with upward trend
⚪ NEUTRAL → – Slope and trend direction disagree
🟣 BEARISH ▼ – Negative slope with downward trend
Macro Slope – Percentage rate of change in the global macro trend
Altcoin Valuation – Relative valuation category based on TOTAL3/Macro deviation:
🟢 Extreme Discount / Deep Discount / Discount
🟡 Fair Value
🔴 Premium / Large Premium / Extreme Premium
TOTAL3ES Mcap – Current total altcoin market capitalization (in billions)
Visual Components:
📊 Histogram: Alts/Macro Change
🟢 Green = Positive deviation (altcoins outperforming)
🔴 Red = Negative deviation (altcoins underperforming)
📈 Macro Slope Line
Color-coded to match trend assessment
Scaled for visibility (adjustable in settings)
Application
This indicator is designed to identify mean reversion opportunities by highlighting periods when the altcoin market materially diverges from fundamental macro and risk conditions. Extreme positive values may indicate overvaluation; extreme negative values may signal undervaluation relative to the prevailing economic and risk appetite backdrop.
Strategy Considerations:
- Identify extremes: Look for periods when the histogram reaches elevated positive or negative levels
- Assess valuation: Use the Altcoin Valuation reading to gauge relative over/undervaluation
Confirm with risk sentiment: Check whether macro conditions and risk appetite support or contradict current price levels
- Mean reversion: Consider that significant deviations from trend historically tend to revert
Note: This indicator identifies relative valuation based on macro conditions and risk sentiment—it does not predict price direction or timing.
Settings

Overview
This indicator combines multiple RSI calculations with volume analysis, divergence detection, and trend filtering to provide a comprehensive RSI-based trading system. The script calculates RSI using three different periods (6, 14, 24) and applies various smoothing methods to reduce noise while maintaining responsiveness. The combination of these features creates a multi-layered confirmation system that reduces false signals by requiring alignment across multiple indicators and timeframes.
The script includes optimized configuration presets for instant setup: Scalping, Day Trading, Swing Trading, and Position Trading. Simply select a preset to instantly configure all settings for your trading style, or use Custom mode for full manual control. All settings include automatic input validation to prevent configuration errors and ensure optimal performance.
Configuration Presets
The script includes preset configurations optimized for different trading styles, allowing you to instantly configure the indicator for your preferred trading approach. Simply select a preset from the "Configuration Preset" dropdown menu:
- Scalping: Optimized for fast-paced trading with shorter RSI periods (4, 7, 9) and minimal smoothing. Noise reduction is automatically disabled, and momentum confirmation is disabled to allow faster signal generation. Designed for quick entries and exits in volatile markets.
- Day Trading: Balanced configuration for intraday trading with moderate RSI periods (6, 9, 14) and light smoothing. Momentum confirmation is enabled for better signal quality. Ideal for day trading strategies requiring timely but accurate signals.
- Swing Trading: Configured for medium-term positions with standard RSI periods (14, 14, 21) and moderate smoothing. Provides smoother signals suitable for swing trading timeframes. All noise reduction features remain active.
- Position Trading: Optimized for longer-term trades with extended RSI periods (24, 21, 28) and heavier smoothing. Filters are configured for highest-quality signals. Best for position traders holding trades over multiple days or weeks.
- Custom: Full manual control over all settings. All input parameters are available for complete customization. This is the default mode and maintains full backward compatibility with previous versions.
When a preset is selected, it automatically adjusts RSI periods, smoothing lengths, and filter settings to match the trading style. The preset configurations ensure optimal settings are applied instantly, eliminating the need for manual configuration. All settings can still be manually overridden if needed, providing flexibility while maintaining ease of use.
Input Validation and Error Prevention
The script includes comprehensive input validation to prevent configuration errors:
- Cross-Input Validation: Smoothing lengths are automatically validated to ensure they are always less than their corresponding RSI period length. If you set a smoothing length greater than or equal to the RSI length, the script automatically adjusts it to (RSI Length - 1). This prevents logical errors and ensures valid configurations.
- Input Range Validation: All numeric inputs have minimum and maximum value constraints enforced by TradingView's input system, preventing invalid parameter values.
- Smart Defaults: Preset configurations use validated default values that are tested and optimized for each trading style. When switching between presets, all related settings are automatically updated to maintain consistency.
Core Calculations
Multi-Period RSI:
The script calculates RSI using the standard Wilder's RSI formula: RSI = 100 - (100 / (1 + RS)), where RS = Average Gain / Average Loss over the specified period. Three separate RSI calculations run simultaneously:
- RSI(6): Uses 6-period lookback for high sensitivity to recent price changes, useful for scalping and early signal detection
- RSI(14): Standard 14-period RSI for balanced analysis, the most commonly used RSI period
- RSI(24): Longer 24-period RSI for trend confirmation, provides smoother signals with less noise
Each RSI can be smoothed using EMA, SMA, RMA (Wilder's smoothing), WMA, or Zero-Lag smoothing. Zero-Lag smoothing uses the formula: ZL-RSI = RSI + (RSI - RSI ) to reduce lag while maintaining signal quality. You can apply individual smoothing lengths to each RSI period, or use global smoothing where all three RSIs share the same smoothing length.
Dynamic Overbought/Oversold Thresholds:
Static thresholds (default 70/30) are adjusted based on market volatility using ATR. The formula: Dynamic OB = Base OB + (ATR × Volatility Multiplier × Base Percentage / 100), Dynamic OS = Base OS - (ATR × Volatility Multiplier × Base Percentage / 100). This adapts to volatile markets where traditional 70/30 levels may be too restrictive. During high volatility, the dynamic thresholds widen, and during low volatility, they narrow. The thresholds are clamped between 0-100 to remain within RSI bounds. The ATR is cached for performance optimization, updating on confirmed bars and real-time bars.
Adaptive RSI Calculation:
An adaptive RSI adjusts the standard RSI(14) based on current volatility relative to average volatility. The calculation: Adaptive Factor = (Current ATR / SMA of ATR over 20 periods) × Volatility Multiplier. If SMA of ATR is zero (edge case), the adaptive factor defaults to 0. The adaptive RSI = Base RSI × (1 + Adaptive Factor), clamped to 0-100. This makes the indicator more responsive during high volatility periods when traditional RSI may lag. The adaptive RSI is used for signal generation (buy/sell signals) but is not plotted on the chart.
Overbought/Oversold Fill Zones:
The script provides visual fill zones between the RSI line and the threshold lines when RSI is in overbought or oversold territory. The fill logic uses inclusive conditions: fills are shown when RSI is currently in the zone OR was in the zone on the previous bar. This ensures complete coverage of entry and exit boundaries. A minimum gap of 0.1 RSI points is maintained between the RSI plot and threshold line to ensure reliable polygon rendering in TradingView. The fill uses invisible plots at the threshold levels and the RSI value, with the fill color applied between them. You can select which RSI (6, 14, or 24) to use for the fill zones.
Divergence Detection
Regular Divergence:
Bullish divergence: Price makes a lower low (current low < lowest low from previous lookback period) while RSI makes a higher low (current RSI > lowest RSI from previous lookback period). Bearish divergence: Price makes a higher high (current high > highest high from previous lookback period) while RSI makes a lower high (current RSI < highest RSI from previous lookback period). The script compares current price/RSI values to the lowest/highest values from the previous lookback period using ta.lowest() and ta.highest() functions with index to reference the previous period's extreme.
Pivot-Based Divergence:
An enhanced divergence detection method that uses actual pivot points instead of simple lowest/highest comparisons. This provides more accurate divergence detection by identifying significant pivot lows/highs in both price and RSI. The pivot-based method uses a tolerance-based approach with configurable constants: 1% tolerance for price comparisons (priceTolerancePercent = 0.01) and 1.0 RSI point absolute tolerance for RSI comparisons (pivotTolerance = 1.0). Minimum divergence threshold is 1.0 RSI point (minDivergenceThreshold = 1.0). It looks for two recent pivot points and compares them: for bullish divergence, price makes a lower low (at least 1% lower) while RSI makes a higher low (at least 1.0 point higher). This method reduces false divergences by requiring actual pivot points rather than just any low/high within a period. When enabled, pivot-based divergence replaces the traditional method for more accurate signal generation.
Strong Divergence:
Regular divergence is confirmed by an engulfing candle pattern. Bullish engulfing requires: (1) Previous candle is bearish (close < open ), (2) Current candle is bullish (close > open), (3) Current close > previous open, (4) Current open < previous close. Bearish engulfing is the inverse: previous bullish, current bearish, current close < previous open, current open > previous close. Strong divergence signals are marked with visual indicators (🐂 for bullish, 🐻 for bearish) and have separate alert conditions.
Hidden Divergence:
Continuation patterns that signal trend continuation rather than reversal. Bullish hidden divergence: Price makes a higher low (current low > lowest low from previous period) but RSI makes a lower low (current RSI < lowest RSI from previous period). Bearish hidden divergence: Price makes a lower high (current high < highest high from previous period) but RSI makes a higher high (current RSI > highest RSI from previous period). These patterns indicate the trend is likely to continue in the current direction.
Volume Confirmation System
Volume threshold filtering requires current volume to exceed the volume SMA multiplied by the threshold factor. The formula: Volume Confirmed = Volume > (Volume SMA × Threshold). If the threshold is set to 0.1 or lower, volume confirmation is effectively disabled (always returns true). This allows you to use the indicator without volume filtering if desired.
Volume Climax is detected when volume exceeds: Volume SMA + (Volume StdDev × Multiplier). This indicates potential capitulation moments where extreme volume accompanies price movements. Volume Dry-Up is detected when volume falls below: Volume SMA - (Volume StdDev × Multiplier), indicating low participation periods that may produce unreliable signals. The volume SMA is cached for performance, updating on confirmed and real-time bars.
Multi-RSI Synergy
The script generates signals when multiple RSI periods align in overbought or oversold zones. This creates a confirmation system that reduces false signals. In "ALL" mode, all three RSIs (6, 14, 24) must be simultaneously above the overbought threshold OR all three must be below the oversold threshold. In "2-of-3" mode, any two of the three RSIs must align in the same direction. The script counts how many RSIs are in each zone: twoOfThreeOB = ((rsi6OB ? 1 : 0) + (rsi14OB ? 1 : 0) + (rsi24OB ? 1 : 0)) >= 2.
Synergy signals require: (1) Multi-RSI alignment (ALL or 2-of-3), (2) Volume confirmation, (3) Reset condition satisfied (enough bars since last synergy signal), (4) Additional filters passed (RSI50, Trend, ADX, Volume Dry-Up avoidance). Separate reset conditions track buy and sell signals independently. The reset condition uses ta.barssince() to count bars since the last trigger, returning true if the condition never occurred (allowing first signal) or if enough bars have passed.
Regression Forecasting
The script uses historical RSI values to forecast future RSI direction using four methods. The forecast horizon is configurable (1-50 bars ahead). Historical data is collected into an array, and regression coefficients are calculated based on the selected method.
Linear Regression: Calculates the least-squares fit line (y = mx + b) through the last N RSI values. The calculation: meanX = sumX / horizon, meanY = sumY / horizon, denominator = sumX² - horizon × meanX², m = (sumXY - horizon × meanX × meanY) / denominator, b = meanY - m × meanX. The forecast projects this line forward: forecast = b + m × i for i = 1 to horizon.
Polynomial Regression: Fits a quadratic curve (y = ax² + bx + c) to capture non-linear trends. The system of equations is solved using Cramer's rule with a 3×3 determinant. If the determinant is too small (< 0.0001), the system falls back to linear regression. Coefficients are calculated by solving: n×c + sumX×b + sumX²×a = sumY, sumX×c + sumX²×b + sumX³×a = sumXY, sumX²×c + sumX³×b + sumX⁴×a = sumX²Y. Note: Due to the O(n³) computational complexity of polynomial regression, the forecast horizon is automatically limited to a maximum of 20 bars when using polynomial regression to maintain optimal performance. If you set a horizon greater than 20 bars with polynomial regression, it will be automatically capped at 20 bars.
Exponential Smoothing: Applies exponential smoothing with adaptive alpha = 2/(horizon+1). The smoothing iterates from oldest to newest value: smoothed = alpha × series + (1 - alpha) × smoothed. Trend is calculated by comparing current smoothed value to an earlier smoothed value (at 60% of horizon): trend = (smoothed - earlierSmoothed) / (horizon - earlierIdx). Forecast: forecast = base + trend × i.
Moving Average: Uses the difference between short MA (horizon/2) and long MA (horizon) to estimate trend direction. Trend = (maShort - maLong) / (longLen - shortLen). Forecast: forecast = maShort + trend × i.
Confidence bands are calculated using RMSE (Root Mean Squared Error) of historical forecast accuracy. The error calculation compares historical values with forecast values: RMSE = sqrt(sumSquaredError / count). If insufficient data exists, it falls back to calculating standard deviation of recent RSI values. Confidence bands = forecast ± (RMSE × confidenceLevel). All forecast values and confidence bands are clamped to 0-100 to remain within RSI bounds. The regression functions include comprehensive safety checks: horizon validation (must not exceed array size), empty array handling, edge case handling for horizon=1 scenarios, division-by-zero protection, and bounds checking for all array access operations to prevent runtime errors.
Strong Top/Bottom Detection
Strong buy signals require three conditions: (1) RSI is at its lowest point within the bottom period: rsiVal <= ta.lowest(rsiVal, bottomPeriod), (2) RSI is below the oversold threshold minus a buffer: rsiVal < (oversoldThreshold - rsiTopBottomBuffer), where rsiTopBottomBuffer = 2.0 RSI points, (3) The absolute difference between current RSI and the lowest RSI exceeds the threshold value: abs(rsiVal - ta.lowest(rsiVal, bottomPeriod)) > threshold. This indicates a bounce from extreme levels with sufficient distance from the absolute low.
Strong sell signals use the inverse logic: RSI at highest point, above overbought threshold + rsiTopBottomBuffer (2.0 RSI points), and difference from highest exceeds threshold. Both signals also require: volume confirmation, reset condition satisfied (separate reset for buy vs sell), and all additional filters passed (RSI50, Trend, ADX, Volume Dry-Up avoidance).
The reset condition uses separate logic for buy and sell: resetCondBuy checks bars since isRSIAtBottom, resetCondSell checks bars since isRSIAtTop. This ensures buy signals reset based on bottom conditions and sell signals reset based on top conditions, preventing incorrect signal blocking.
Filtering System
RSI(50) Filter: Only allows buy signals when RSI(14) > 50 (bullish momentum) and sell signals when RSI(14) < 50 (bearish momentum). This filter ensures you're buying in uptrends and selling in downtrends from a momentum perspective. The filter is optional and can be disabled. Recommended to enable for noise reduction.
Trend Filter: Uses a long-term EMA (default 200) to determine trend direction. Buy signals require price above EMA, sell signals require price below EMA. The EMA slope is calculated as: emaSlope = ema - ema . Optional EMA slope filter additionally requires the EMA to be rising (slope > 0) for buy signals or falling (slope < 0) for sell signals. This provides stronger trend confirmation by requiring both price position and EMA direction.
ADX Filter: Uses the Directional Movement Index (calculated via ta.dmi()) to measure trend strength. Signals only fire when ADX exceeds the threshold (default 20), indicating a strong trend rather than choppy markets. The ADX calculation uses separate length and smoothing parameters. This filter helps avoid signals during sideways/consolidation periods.
Volume Dry-Up Avoidance: Prevents signals during periods of extremely low volume relative to average. If volume dry-up is detected and the filter is enabled, signals are blocked. This helps avoid unreliable signals that occur during low participation periods.
RSI Momentum Confirmation: Requires RSI to be accelerating in the signal direction before confirming signals. For buy signals, RSI must be consistently rising (recovering from oversold) over the lookback period. For sell signals, RSI must be consistently falling (declining from overbought) over the lookback period. The momentum check verifies that all consecutive changes are in the correct direction AND the cumulative change is significant. This filter ensures signals only fire when RSI momentum aligns with the signal direction, reducing false signals from weak momentum.
Multi-Timeframe Confirmation: Requires higher timeframe RSI to align with the signal direction. For buy signals, current RSI must be below the higher timeframe RSI by at least the confirmation threshold. For sell signals, current RSI must be above the higher timeframe RSI by at least the confirmation threshold. This ensures signals align with the larger trend context, reducing counter-trend trades. The higher timeframe RSI is fetched using request.security() from the selected timeframe.
All filters use the pattern: filterResult = not filterEnabled OR conditionMet. This means if a filter is disabled, it always passes (returns true). Filters can be combined, and all must pass for a signal to fire.
RSI Centerline and Period Crossovers
RSI(50) Centerline Crossovers: Detects when the selected RSI source crosses above or below the 50 centerline. Bullish crossover: ta.crossover(rsiSource, 50), bearish crossover: ta.crossunder(rsiSource, 50). You can select which RSI (6, 14, or 24) to use for these crossovers. These signals indicate momentum shifts from bearish to bullish (above 50) or bullish to bearish (below 50).
RSI Period Crossovers: Detects when different RSI periods cross each other. Available pairs: RSI(6) × RSI(14), RSI(14) × RSI(24), or RSI(6) × RSI(24). Bullish crossover: fast RSI crosses above slow RSI (ta.crossover(rsiFast, rsiSlow)), indicating momentum acceleration. Bearish crossover: fast RSI crosses below slow RSI (ta.crossunder(rsiFast, rsiSlow)), indicating momentum deceleration. These crossovers can signal shifts in momentum before price moves.
StochRSI Calculation
Stochastic RSI applies the Stochastic oscillator formula to RSI values instead of price. The calculation: %K = ((RSI - Lowest RSI) / (Highest RSI - Lowest RSI)) × 100, where the lookback is the StochRSI length. If the range is zero, %K defaults to 50.0. %K is then smoothed using SMA with the %K smoothing length. %D is calculated as SMA of smoothed %K with the %D smoothing length. All values are clamped to 0-100. You can select which RSI (6, 14, or 24) to use as the source for StochRSI calculation.
RSI Bollinger Bands
Bollinger Bands are applied to RSI(14) instead of price. The calculation: Basis = SMA(RSI(14), BB Period), StdDev = stdev(RSI(14), BB Period), Upper = Basis + (StdDev × Deviation Multiplier), Lower = Basis - (StdDev × Deviation Multiplier). This creates dynamic zones around RSI that adapt to RSI volatility. When RSI touches or exceeds the bands, it indicates extreme conditions relative to recent RSI behavior.
Noise Reduction System
The script includes a comprehensive noise reduction system to filter false signals and improve accuracy. When enabled, signals must pass multiple quality checks:
Signal Strength Requirement: RSI must be at least X points away from the centerline (50). For buy signals, RSI must be at least X points below 50. For sell signals, RSI must be at least X points above 50. This ensures signals only trigger when RSI is significantly in oversold/overbought territory, not just near neutral.
Extreme Zone Requirement: RSI must be deep in the OB/OS zone. For buy signals, RSI must be at least X points below the oversold threshold. For sell signals, RSI must be at least X points above the overbought threshold. This ensures signals only fire in extreme conditions where reversals are more likely.
Consecutive Bar Confirmation: The signal condition must persist for N consecutive bars before triggering. This reduces false signals from single-bar spikes or noise. The confirmation checks that the signal condition was true for all bars in the lookback period.
Zone Persistence (Optional): Requires RSI to remain in the OB/OS zone for N consecutive bars, not just touch it. This ensures RSI is truly in an extreme state rather than just briefly touching the threshold. When enabled, this provides stricter filtering for higher-quality signals.
RSI Slope Confirmation (Optional): Requires RSI to be moving in the expected signal direction. For buy signals, RSI should be rising (recovering from oversold). For sell signals, RSI should be falling (declining from overbought). This ensures momentum is aligned with the signal direction. The slope is calculated by comparing current RSI to RSI N bars ago.
All noise reduction filters can be enabled/disabled independently, allowing you to customize the balance between signal frequency and accuracy. The default settings provide a good balance, but you can adjust them based on your trading style and market conditions.
Alert System
The script includes separate alert conditions for each signal type: buy/sell (adaptive RSI crossovers), divergence (regular, strong, hidden), crossovers (RSI50 centerline, RSI period crossovers), synergy signals, and trend breaks. Each alert type has its own alertcondition() declaration with a unique title and message.
An optional cooldown system prevents alert spam by requiring a minimum number of bars between alerts of the same type. The cooldown check: canAlert = na(lastAlertBar) OR (bar_index - lastAlertBar >= cooldownBars). If the last alert bar is na (first alert), it always allows the alert. Each alert type maintains its own lastAlertBar variable, so cooldowns are independent per signal type. The default cooldown is 10 bars, which is recommended for noise reduction.
Higher Timeframe RSI
The script can display RSI from a higher timeframe using request.security(). This allows you to see the RSI context from a larger timeframe (e.g., daily RSI on an hourly chart). The higher timeframe RSI uses RSI(14) calculation from the selected timeframe. This provides context for the current timeframe's RSI position relative to the larger trend.
RSI Pivot Trendlines
The script can draw trendlines connecting pivot highs and lows on RSI(6). This feature helps visualize RSI trends and identify potential trend breaks.
Pivot Detection: Pivots are detected using a configurable period. The script can require pivots to have minimum strength (RSI points difference from surrounding bars) to filter out weak pivots. Lower minPivotStrength values detect more pivots (more trendlines), while higher values detect only stronger pivots (fewer but more significant trendlines). Pivot confirmation is optional: when enabled, the script waits N bars to confirm the pivot remains the extreme, reducing repainting. Pivot confirmation functions (f_confirmPivotLow and f_confirmPivotHigh) are always called on every bar for consistency, as recommended by TradingView. When pivot bars are not available (na), safe default values are used, and the results are then used conditionally based on confirmation settings. This ensures consistent calculations and prevents calculation inconsistencies.
Trendline Drawing: Uptrend lines connect confirmed pivot lows (green), and downtrend lines connect confirmed pivot highs (red). By default, only the most recent trendline is shown (old trendlines are deleted when new pivots are confirmed). This keeps the chart clean and uncluttered. If "Keep Historical Trendlines" is enabled, the script preserves up to N historical trendlines (configurable via "Max Trendlines to Keep", default 5). When historical trendlines are enabled, old trendlines are saved to arrays instead of being deleted, allowing you to see multiple trendlines simultaneously for better trend analysis. The arrays are automatically limited to prevent memory accumulation.
Trend Break Detection: Signals are generated when RSI breaks above or below trendlines. Uptrend breaks (RSI crosses below uptrend line) generate buy signals. Downtrend breaks (RSI crosses above downtrend line) generate sell signals. Optional trend break confirmation requires the break to persist for N bars and optionally include volume confirmation. Trendline angle filtering can exclude flat/weak trendlines from generating signals (minTrendlineAngle > 0 filters out weak/flat trendlines).
How Components Work Together
The combination of multiple RSI periods provides confirmation across different timeframes, reducing false signals. RSI(6) catches early moves, RSI(14) provides balanced signals, and RSI(24) confirms longer-term trends. When all three align (synergy), it indicates strong consensus across timeframes.
Volume confirmation ensures signals occur with sufficient market participation, filtering out low-volume false breakouts. Volume climax detection identifies potential reversal points, while volume dry-up avoidance prevents signals during unreliable low-volume periods.
Trend filters align signals with the overall market direction. The EMA filter ensures you're trading with the trend, and the EMA slope filter adds an additional layer by requiring the trend to be strengthening (rising EMA for buys, falling EMA for sells).
ADX filter ensures signals only fire during strong trends, avoiding choppy/consolidation periods. RSI(50) filter ensures momentum alignment with the trade direction.
Momentum confirmation requires RSI to be accelerating in the signal direction, ensuring signals only fire when momentum is aligned. Multi-timeframe confirmation ensures signals align with higher timeframe trends, reducing counter-trend trades.
Divergence detection identifies potential reversals before they occur, providing early warning signals. Pivot-based divergence provides more accurate detection by using actual pivot points. Hidden divergence identifies continuation patterns, useful for trend-following strategies.
The noise reduction system combines multiple filters (signal strength, extreme zone, consecutive bars, zone persistence, RSI slope) to significantly reduce false signals. These filters work together to ensure only high-quality signals are generated.
The synergy system requires alignment across all RSI periods for highest-quality signals, significantly reducing false positives. Regression forecasting provides forward-looking context, helping anticipate potential RSI direction changes.
Pivot trendlines provide visual trend analysis and can generate signals when RSI breaks trendlines, indicating potential reversals or continuations.
Reset conditions prevent signal spam by requiring a minimum number of bars between signals. Separate reset conditions for buy and sell signals ensure proper signal management.
Usage Instructions
Configuration Presets (Recommended): The script includes optimized preset configurations for instant setup. Simply select your trading style from the "Configuration Preset" dropdown:
- Scalping Preset: RSI(4, 7, 9) with minimal smoothing. Noise reduction disabled, momentum confirmation disabled for fastest signals.
- Day Trading Preset: RSI(6, 9, 14) with light smoothing. Momentum confirmation enabled for better signal quality.
- Swing Trading Preset: RSI(14, 14, 21) with moderate smoothing. Balanced configuration for medium-term trades.
- Position Trading Preset: RSI(24, 21, 28) with heavier smoothing. Optimized for longer-term positions with all filters active.
- Custom Mode: Full manual control over all settings. Default behavior matches previous script versions.
Presets automatically configure RSI periods, smoothing lengths, and filter settings. You can still manually adjust any setting after selecting a preset if needed.
Getting Started: The easiest way to get started is to select a configuration preset matching your trading style (Scalping, Day Trading, Swing Trading, or Position Trading) from the "Configuration Preset" dropdown. This instantly configures all settings for optimal performance. Alternatively, use "Custom" mode for full manual control. The default configuration (Custom mode) shows RSI(6), RSI(14), and RSI(24) with their default smoothing. Overbought/oversold fill zones are enabled by default.
Customizing RSI Periods: Adjust the RSI lengths (6, 14, 24) based on your trading timeframe. Shorter periods (6) for scalping, standard (14) for day trading, longer (24) for swing trading. You can disable any RSI period you don't need.
Smoothing Selection: Choose smoothing method based on your needs. EMA provides balanced smoothing, RMA (Wilder's) is traditional, Zero-Lag reduces lag but may increase noise. Adjust smoothing lengths individually or use global smoothing for consistency. Note: Smoothing lengths are automatically validated to ensure they are always less than the corresponding RSI period length. If you set smoothing >= RSI length, it will be auto-adjusted to prevent invalid configurations.
Dynamic OB/OS: The dynamic thresholds automatically adapt to volatility. Adjust the volatility multiplier and base percentage to fine-tune sensitivity. Higher values create wider thresholds in volatile markets.
Volume Confirmation: Set volume threshold to 1.2 (default) for standard confirmation, higher for stricter filtering, or 0.1 to disable volume filtering entirely.
Multi-RSI Synergy: Use "ALL" mode for highest-quality signals (all 3 RSIs must align), or "2-of-3" mode for more frequent signals. Adjust the reset period to control signal frequency.
Filters: Enable filters gradually to find your preferred balance. Start with volume confirmation, then add trend filter, then ADX for strongest confirmation. RSI(50) filter is useful for momentum-based strategies and is recommended for noise reduction. Momentum confirmation and multi-timeframe confirmation add additional layers of accuracy but may reduce signal frequency.
Noise Reduction: The noise reduction system is enabled by default with balanced settings. Adjust minSignalStrength (default 3.0) to control how far RSI must be from centerline. Increase requireConsecutiveBars (default 1) to require signals to persist longer. Enable requireZonePersistence and requireRsiSlope for stricter filtering (higher quality but fewer signals). Start with defaults and adjust based on your needs.
Divergence: Enable divergence detection and adjust lookback periods. Strong divergence (with engulfing confirmation) provides higher-quality signals. Hidden divergence is useful for trend-following strategies. Enable pivot-based divergence for more accurate detection using actual pivot points instead of simple lowest/highest comparisons. Pivot-based divergence uses tolerance-based matching (1% for price, 1.0 RSI point for RSI) for better accuracy.
Forecasting: Enable regression forecasting to see potential RSI direction. Linear regression is simplest, polynomial captures curves, exponential smoothing adapts to trends. Adjust horizon based on your trading timeframe. Confidence bands show forecast uncertainty - wider bands indicate less reliable forecasts.
Pivot Trendlines: Enable pivot trendlines to visualize RSI trends and identify trend breaks. Adjust pivot detection period (default 5) - higher values detect fewer but stronger pivots. Enable pivot confirmation (default ON) to reduce repainting. Set minPivotStrength (default 1.0) to filter weak pivots - lower values detect more pivots (more trendlines), higher values detect only stronger pivots (fewer trendlines). Enable "Keep Historical Trendlines" to preserve multiple trendlines instead of just the most recent one. Set "Max Trendlines to Keep" (default 5) to control how many historical trendlines are preserved. Enable trend break confirmation for more reliable break signals. Adjust minTrendlineAngle (default 0.0) to filter flat trendlines - set to 0.1-0.5 to exclude weak trendlines.
Alerts: Set up alerts for your preferred signal types. Enable cooldown to prevent alert spam. Each signal type has its own alert condition, so you can be selective about which signals trigger alerts.
Visual Elements and Signal Markers

Signal Priority and Interpretation
Signals are generated independently and can occur simultaneously. Higher-priority signals generally indicate stronger setups:
1. Multi-RSI Synergy signals (SyBuy/SySell) - Highest priority: Requires alignment across all RSI periods plus volume and filter confirmation. These are the most reliable signals.
2. Strong Top/Bottom signals (sTop/sBottom) - High priority: Indicates extreme RSI levels with strong bounce conditions. Requires volume confirmation and all filters.
3. Divergence signals - Medium-High priority: Strong divergence (with engulfing) is more reliable than regular divergence. Hidden divergence indicates continuation rather than reversal.
4. Adaptive RSI crossovers - Medium priority: Buy when adaptive RSI crosses below dynamic oversold, sell when it crosses above dynamic overbought. These use volatility-adjusted RSI for more accurate signals.
5. RSI(50) centerline crossovers - Medium priority: Momentum shift signals. Less reliable alone but useful when combined with other confirmations.
6. RSI period crossovers - Lower priority: Early momentum shift indicators. Can provide early warning but may produce false signals in choppy markets.
Best practice: Wait for multiple confirmations. For example, a synergy signal combined with divergence and volume climax provides the strongest setup.
Chart Requirements
For proper script functionality and compliance with TradingView requirements, ensure your chart displays:
- Symbol name: The trading pair or instrument name should be visible
- Timeframe: The chart timeframe should be clearly displayed
- Script name: "Ultimate RSI " should be visible in the indicator title
These elements help traders understand what they're viewing and ensure proper script identification. The script automatically includes this information in the indicator title and chart labels.
Performance Considerations
The script is optimized for performance:
- ATR and Volume SMA are cached using var variables, updating only on confirmed and real-time bars to reduce redundant calculations
- Forecast line arrays are dynamically managed: lines are reused when possible, and unused lines are deleted to prevent memory accumulation
- Calculations use efficient Pine Script functions (ta.rsi, ta.ema, etc.) which are optimized by TradingView
- Array operations are minimized where possible, with direct calculations preferred
- Polynomial regression automatically caps the forecast horizon at 20 bars (POLYNOMIAL_MAX_HORIZON constant) to prevent performance degradation, as polynomial regression has O(n³) complexity. This safeguard ensures optimal performance even with large horizon settings
- Pivot detection includes edge case handling to ensure reliable calculations even on early bars with limited historical data. Regression forecasting functions include comprehensive safety checks: horizon validation (must not exceed array size), empty array handling, edge case handling for horizon=1 scenarios, and division-by-zero protection in all mathematical operations
The script should perform well on all timeframes. On very long historical data, forecast lines may accumulate if the horizon is large; consider reducing the forecast horizon if you experience performance issues. The polynomial regression performance safeguard automatically prevents performance issues for that specific regression type.
Known Limitations and Considerations
- Forecast lines are forward-looking projections and should not be used as definitive predictions. They provide context but are not guaranteed to be accurate.
- Dynamic OB/OS thresholds can exceed 100 or go below 0 in extreme volatility scenarios, but are clamped to 0-100 range. This means in very volatile markets, the dynamic thresholds may not widen as much as the raw calculation suggests.
- Volume confirmation requires sufficient historical volume data. On new instruments or very short timeframes, volume calculations may be less reliable.
- Higher timeframe RSI uses request.security() which may have slight delays on some data feeds.
- Regression forecasting requires at least N bars of history (where N = forecast horizon) before it can generate forecasts. Early bars will not show forecast lines.
- StochRSI calculation requires the selected RSI source to have sufficient history. Very short RSI periods on new charts may produce less reliable StochRSI values initially.
Practical Use Cases
The indicator can be configured for different trading styles and timeframes:
Swing Trading: Select the "Swing Trading" preset for instant optimal configuration. This preset uses RSI periods (14, 14, 21) with moderate smoothing. Alternatively, manually configure: Use RSI(24) with Multi-RSI Synergy in "ALL" mode, combined with trend filter (EMA 200) and ADX filter. This configuration provides high-probability setups with strong confirmation across multiple RSI periods.
Day Trading: Select the "Day Trading" preset for instant optimal configuration. This preset uses RSI periods (6, 9, 14) with light smoothing and momentum confirmation enabled. Alternatively, manually configure: Use RSI(6) with Zero-Lag smoothing for fast signal detection. Enable volume confirmation with threshold 1.2-1.5 for reliable entries. Combine with RSI(50) filter to ensure momentum alignment. Strong top/bottom signals work well for day trading reversals.
Trend Following: Enable trend filter (EMA) and EMA slope filter for strong trend confirmation. Use RSI(14) or RSI(24) with ADX filter to avoid choppy markets. Hidden divergence signals are useful for trend continuation entries.
Reversal Trading: Focus on divergence detection (regular and strong) combined with strong top/bottom signals. Enable volume climax detection to identify capitulation moments. Use RSI(6) for early reversal signals, confirmed by RSI(14) and RSI(24).
Forecasting and Planning: Enable regression forecasting with polynomial or exponential smoothing methods. Use forecast horizon of 10-20 bars for swing trading, 5-10 bars for day trading. Confidence bands help assess forecast reliability.
Multi-Timeframe Analysis: Enable higher timeframe RSI to see context from larger timeframes. For example, use daily RSI on hourly charts to understand the larger trend context. This helps avoid counter-trend trades.
Scalping: Select the "Scalping" preset for instant optimal configuration. This preset uses RSI periods (4, 7, 9) with minimal smoothing, disables noise reduction, and disables momentum confirmation for faster signals. Alternatively, manually configure: Use RSI(6) with minimal smoothing (or Zero-Lag) for ultra-fast signals. Disable most filters except volume confirmation. Use RSI period crossovers (RSI(6) × RSI(14)) for early momentum shifts. Set volume threshold to 1.0-1.2 for less restrictive filtering.
Position Trading: Select the "Position Trading" preset for instant optimal configuration. This preset uses extended RSI periods (24, 21, 28) with heavier smoothing, optimized for longer-term trades. Alternatively, manually configure: Use RSI(24) with all filters enabled (Trend, ADX, RSI(50), Volume Dry-Up avoidance). Multi-RSI Synergy in "ALL" mode provides highest-quality signals.
Practical Tips and Best Practices
Getting Started: The fastest way to get started is to select a configuration preset that matches your trading style. Simply choose "Scalping", "Day Trading", "Swing Trading", or "Position Trading" from the "Configuration Preset" dropdown to instantly configure all settings optimally. For advanced users, use "Custom" mode for full manual control. The default configuration (Custom mode) is balanced and works well across different markets. After observing behavior, customize settings to match your trading style.
Reducing Repainting: All signals are based on confirmed bars, minimizing repainting. The script uses confirmed bar data for all calculations to ensure backtesting accuracy.
Signal Quality: Multi-RSI Synergy signals in "ALL" mode provide the highest-quality signals because they require alignment across all three RSI periods. These signals have lower frequency but higher reliability. For more frequent signals, use "2-of-3" mode. The noise reduction system further improves signal quality by requiring multiple confirmations (signal strength, extreme zone, consecutive bars, optional zone persistence and RSI slope). Adjust noise reduction settings to balance signal frequency vs. accuracy.
Filter Combinations: Start with volume confirmation, then add trend filter for trend alignment, then ADX filter for trend strength. Combining all three filters significantly reduces false signals but also reduces signal frequency. Find your balance based on your risk tolerance.
Volume Filtering: Set volume threshold to 0.1 or lower to effectively disable volume filtering if you trade instruments with unreliable volume data or want to test without volume confirmation. Standard confirmation uses 1.2-1.5 threshold.
RSI Period Selection: RSI(6) is most sensitive and best for scalping or early signal detection. RSI(14) provides balanced signals suitable for day trading. RSI(24) is smoother and better for swing trading and trend confirmation. You can disable any RSI period you don't need to reduce visual clutter.
Smoothing Methods: EMA provides balanced smoothing with moderate lag. RMA (Wilder's smoothing) is traditional and works well for RSI. Zero-Lag reduces lag but may increase noise. WMA gives more weight to recent values. Choose based on your preference for responsiveness vs. smoothness.
Forecasting: Linear regression is simplest and works well for trending markets. Polynomial regression captures curves and works better in ranging markets. Exponential smoothing adapts to trends. Moving average method is most conservative. Use confidence bands to assess forecast reliability.
Divergence: Strong divergence (with engulfing confirmation) is more reliable than regular divergence. Hidden divergence indicates continuation rather than reversal, useful for trend-following strategies. Pivot-based divergence provides more accurate detection by using actual pivot points instead of simple lowest/highest comparisons. Adjust lookback periods based on your timeframe: shorter for day trading, longer for swing trading. Pivot divergence period (default 5) controls the sensitivity of pivot detection.
Dynamic Thresholds: Dynamic OB/OS thresholds automatically adapt to volatility. In volatile markets, thresholds widen; in calm markets, they narrow. Adjust the volatility multiplier and base percentage to fine-tune sensitivity. Higher values create wider thresholds in volatile markets.
Alert Management: Enable alert cooldown (default 10 bars, recommended) to prevent alert spam. Each alert type has its own cooldown, so you can set different cooldowns for different signal types. For example, use shorter cooldown for synergy signals (high quality) and longer cooldown for crossovers (more frequent). The cooldown system works independently for each signal type, preventing spam while allowing different signal types to fire when appropriate.

Results are then used conditionally when needed. This ensures consistent calculations and prevents calculation inconsistencies.
Force Pulse█ OVERVIEW
Force Pulse is a fast-reacting oscillator that measures the internal strength of market sides by analyzing the aggregated dominance of bulls and bears based on candle size.
The indicator normalizes this difference into a 0–100 range, generates signals (OB/OS, midline cross, MA midline cross), and detects divergences between price and the oscillator.
It also offers advanced visualization, signal markers, and alerts, making it a versatile tool suitable for many trading styles.
█ CONCEPTS
Force Pulse was designed as a universal tool that can be applied to various trading strategies depending on its settings:
- increasing the period lengths and smoothing transforms it into a momentum/trend indicator, revealing a stable dominance of one market side.
- Lowering these parameters turns it into a peak/low detector, ideal for contrarian and mean-reversion strategies.
The oscillator analyzes the relationship between the sum of bullish and bearish candles over a selected period, based on:
- candle body size, or
- average candle body size (AVG Body).
Depending on the selected mode, OB/OS levels should be adjusted, as value dynamics differ between modes.
The output is normalized to 0–100, where:
> 50 – bullish dominance,
< 50 – bearish dominance.
The additional MA line is derived from smoothed oscillator values and serves as a signal line for midline crosses and as a trend filter.
The indicator also detects divergences (HL/LL) between price and the oscillator.
█ FEATURES
Bull & Bear Strength:
- Calculations are based on Body or AVG Body – mode selection requires adjusting OB/OS levels.
- Bullish and bearish candle values are summed separately.
- All results are normalized to the 0–100 scale.
Force Pulse Oscillator:
- The main line reflects the current dominance of either market side.
Dynamic colors:
- Green – above 50,
- Red – below 50.
Signal MA:
- SMA based on oscillator values functions as a signal line.
- Helps detect momentum shifts and generates signals via midline crosses.
- Can serve as a trend confirmation filter.
Overbought / Oversold:
- Configurable OB/OS levels, also for the MA line.
- Dynamic OB/OS line colors: when the MA line exceeds the defined threshold (e.g., MA > maOverbought or MA < maOversold), OB/OS lines change color (red/green).
- This often signals a potential reversal or correction and may act as additional confirmation for oscillator-generated signals.
Divergences:
- Detection based on swing pivots:
- Bullish: price LL, oscillator HL
- Bearish: price HH, oscillator LH
- Displayed as “Bull” / “Bear” labels.
Signals:
Supports multiple signal types:
- Overbought/Oversold Cross
- Midline Cross
- MA Midline Cross (based on the signal MA line)
- Signals appear as triangles above/below the oscillator.
Visualization:
- Gradient options for lines and levels.
- Full customization of colors, transparency, and line thickness.
Alerts available for:
- Divergences
- OB/OS crossings
- Midline crossings
- MA midline crossings
█ HOW TO USE
Add the indicator to your TradingView chart → Indicators → search “Force Pulse”
Parameter Configuration
Calculation Settings:
- Calculation Period (lookback) – defines the strength calculation window.
Force Mode (Body / AVG Body):
- Body – faster response, higher sensitivity.
- AVG Body – more stable output; adjust band levels and periods to your strategy.
- EMA Smoothing (smoothLen) – reduces oscillator noise.
- MA Length – length of the signal line (SMA).
Threshold Levels:
- Set Overbought/Oversold levels for both the oscillator and the MA line.
- Adjust levels depending on Body / AVG Body mode.
Divergence Detection:
- Enable/disable divergence detection.
- PivotLength affects both delay and signal quality.
- Signal Settings: Choose one or multiple signal types.
- Style & Colors: Full control over color schemes, gradients, and transparency.
Signal Interpretation
BUY:
- Oscillator leaves oversold (OS crossover).
- Midline cross upward.
- MA crosses the midline from below.
- Bullish divergence.
SELL:
- Oscillator leaves overbought (drops below OB).
- Midline cross downward.
- MA crosses the midline from above.
- Bearish divergence.
Trend / Momentum:
-Longer periods and stronger smoothing → stable directional signals.
-MA as a trend filter: e.g., signal line above the midline (50) and MA pointing upward indicates continuation of a bullish impulse.
Contrarian / Mean Reversion:
- Short periods → rapid detection of peaks and troughs; ideal for contrarian signals and pullback entries.
█ APPLICATIONS
- Trend Trading: Using midline and MA midline crosses to determine direction.
- Reversal Trading: OB/OS levels and divergences help identify reversals.
- Scalping & Intraday: Short settings + signal line above the midline with bullish MA → shows short-term impulse and continuation.
- Swing Trading: Longer MA and higher lookback provide a stable view of market-side dominance.
- Momentum Analysis: Force Pulse highlights the strength of the wave before price movement occurs.
█ NOTES
- In strong trends, the oscillator may stay in extreme zones for a long time — this reflects dominance, not necessarily a reversal signal.
- Divergences are more reliable on higher timeframes.
- OB/OS levels should be tailored to Body/AVG Body mode and the instrument.
- Best results come from combining the indicator with other tools (S/R, market structure, volume).
SuperTrend Oscillator MTF█ OVERVIEW
SuperTrend Oscillator MTF is a multi-timeframe version of the classic SuperTrend converted into an oscillator. Instead of drawing the SuperTrend line on the price chart, it displays the distance of the close from the SuperTrend line simultaneously for the current timeframe and two additional timeframes. This allows you to instantly see the trend direction and strength across three selected timeframes in a single window.
█ CONCEPT
The classic SuperTrend value is subtracted from price and normalized so that trend direction can be directly compared across different timeframes without switching charts.
- Value above zero = price below SuperTrend line → bearish trend
- Value below zero = price above SuperTrend line → bullish trend
- The further away from zero, the stronger the trend.
█ FEATURES
- Three SuperTrend Oscillator lines: current TF, TF1 and TF2
- Automatic detection of 3-timeframe agreement
- BUY and SELL labels that appear only when all three timeframes turn in the same direction at the same moment
- Circle signals on every zero-line cross of the current timeframe
- Configurable soft gradient fill (can be disabled)
- Zero line changes color (green/red/gray) depending on 3-TF agreement
- Fully customizable colors for each timeframe
- Built-in alerts for all signal types
█ HOW TO USE
Add the indicator to the chart → set two additional timeframes and adjust ATR Period and Factor to suit your trading style.
Main settings:
- ATR Period → default 10
- Factor → default 3.0 (higher = fewer signals)
- TF 1 and TF 2 → any timeframes (e.g. 1H+4H, 4H+D, D+W, etc.)
- Enable gradient → turn fill on/off
- Show BUY/SELL labels (3 TF agreement) → enable/disable the strongest signals
Interpretation:
Two types of signals:
- Green/red circles → current timeframe changes trend direction (faster signal)
- BUY/SELL labels → all three timeframes simultaneously switch to the same direction (strongest confluence)
- Additionally, the zero line turns green or red when all three trends are aligned.
█ APPLICATIONS
Perfect for:
- Trend-following with multi-timeframe confirmation
- Filtering false breakouts on lower timeframes
- Scalping & day trading (use fast circle signals)
- Swing & position trading (wait for full 3-TF agreement)
Best combined with:
- Support/resistance levels and supply/demand zones – enter long after a confirmed breakout and retest of a key level (e.g. Change of Character, Break of Structure, Order Block, 0.618–0.786 Fibonacci) only when the oscillator shows 3-TF agreement or at least a bullish circle. Hold the trade to the next significant resistance/supply zone.
- Volume and Volume Profile – confirm move strength with rising volume and high-volume nodes at the breakout level. Declining volume while moving away from zero may signal trend exhaustion.
- Classic oscillators (RSI, Stochastic, MACD) – use primarily for spotting divergences and overbought/oversold conditions. One of the safest exits is when a regular or hidden divergence appears on RSI/Stochastic in an extreme zone, even if SuperTrend Oscillator MTF still shows alignment.
█ NOTES
- Works on all markets and all timeframes
- BUY/SELL labels (3-TF agreement) are the cleanest and strongest signals
- Circle signals are faster but more prone to noise
- Higher ATR Period = fewer signals, higher quality
SuperTrend Fusion — Trend + Momentum + Volatility FilterSuperTrend Fusion — Trend + Momentum + Volatility Filter
SuperTrend Fusion — ATP is an original, multi-factor trend-filtering tool that enhances the classic SuperTrend by combining three market dimensions in one unified model:
1. Trend direction (SuperTrend)
Provides the base trend structure using ATR-based volatility bands.
2. Momentum confirmation (Average Force – adapted)
An adapted version of an open-source “Average Force” concept published on TradingView by racer8.
This component measures where closing price sits relative to recent highs/lows, smoothed to capture directional pressure.
3. Market condition filtering (Choppiness Index)
Filters out sideways, non-trending zones where SuperTrend alone typically produces false flips.
Together, these components create a cleaner, more selective system that focuses on higher-quality SuperTrend reversals, avoiding the most common whipsaws that occur during low-momentum or high-choppiness periods.
🔍 How it Works
A long signal occurs when:
- SuperTrend flips from downtrend to uptrend
- Momentum (AF) is positive (optional filter)
- The market is trending and not excessively choppy (optional filter)
A short signal triggers under the symmetrical conditions.
Filtered signals are visually marked with subtle “X” markers so traders can understand when a raw SuperTrend flip was rejected by the filters.
The indicator also includes:
Enhanced styling for better visibility
Colored bars during valid signals
Optional background highlight during choppy periods
🎯 What This Indicator Is Designed For
This tool aims to:
- Improve the quality of SuperTrend entries
- Remove many low-probability signals
- Help traders visually identify when the market has the momentum and structure required for cleaner trend continuation
It is not intended to predict markets or guarantee accuracy; rather, it provides structure and clarity for decision-making based on technical rules.
⚙️ Inputs
- ATR Length & Factor (SuperTrend)
- Average Force Period & Smoothing
- Choppiness Length & Threshold
- Option to enable/disable each filter individually
📘 Credits
This script includes an adapted version of an open-source “Average Force” function originally published on TradingView by its author, racer8.
SuperTrend and Choppiness Index components are derived from classical, public-domain formulas.

RSI Cascade DivergencesRSI Cascade Divergences is a tool for detecting divergences between price and RSI with an extended cascade-based strength accumulation logic. A “cascade” represents a sequence of multiple divergences linked through RSI pivot points. The indicator records RSI pivots, checks whether a divergence is present, assigns a strength value to each structure, and displays only signals that meet your minimum strength thresholds.
How Divergence Logic Works
The indicator identifies local RSI extremes (pivots) based on Pivot Length and Pivot Confirm.
For every confirmed pivot it stores:
the RSI value at the pivot,
the corresponding value of the RSI Source price,
the pivot’s bar index.
How a Divergence Is Formed
A divergence is detected when two consecutive RSI pivots of the same type show opposite dynamics relative to the price source defined in RSI Source (default: close), not relative to chart highs/lows.
Bearish divergence: the price source value at the second pivot is higher, but RSI forms a lower high.
Bullish divergence: the price source value at the second pivot is lower, but RSI forms a higher low.
The indicator does not use price highs/lows — only the selected price source at the pivot points.
Cascade Strength Calculation
Each new pivot is compared only with the previous pivot of the same type.
A cascade grows in strength if:
divergence conditions are met,
the difference in RSI values exceeds Min. RSI Distance,
the previous structure already had some strength or the previous pivot was formed in the OB/OS zone.
If the divergence occurs as RSI exits OB/OS, strength is additionally increased by +1.
Behavior in Strong Trends
Divergences may appear repeatedly and even form cascades with high strength. However, if price does not react meaningfully, this indicates strong trend pressure.
In such cases, divergences stop functioning as reversal signals:
RSI attempts to counter-move, but the dominant trend continues.
The indicator accurately reflects this — cascades may form but fail to trigger any reversal, which itself suggests a powerful, persistent trend.
Filtering and Context Reset
To avoid retaining irrelevant pivots:
when RSI is above Overbought → low pivots are cleared;
when RSI is below Oversold → high pivots are cleared.
This prevents false cascades during extreme RSI conditions.
Input Parameters
RSI Source — price source used in RSI calculations (close, hl2, ohlc4, etc.).
RSI Length — RSI calculation period.
Overbought / Oversold — RSI threshold zones.
Pivot Length — number of bars to the left required for a pivot.
Pivot Confirm — bars to the right required to confirm the pivot.
Min. RSI Distance — minimum difference between two pivot RSI values for the divergence to be considered meaningful.
Min. Strength (Bull / Bear) — minimum accumulated strength for:
confirming the signal,
displaying the strength label,
triggering alerts.
Weaker signals below these thresholds appear as dashed guide structures.
Visual
Display settings for lines, markers, and colors.
These parameters do not affect the indicator logic.
Important
Divergences — including cascades — should not be used as a standalone trading signal.
Always combine them with broader market context, trend analysis, structure, volume, and risk management tools.
