Trend Lines (only lines)[matteovesperi]Indicator Overview
The indicator, developed by matteovesperi, is an overlay tool that plots trend lines on price charts. It is designed to identify and connect pivot highs and lows over short-term, intermediate-term, and long-term periods, providing a visual representation of trends and potential support/resistance levels. The indicator is customizable, with options to adjust periods, toggle visibility, and manage performance for efficient use.
Key Points
The indicator plots trend lines based on pivot points for short-term, intermediate-term, and long-term periods.
It seems likely that it helps visualize trends and support/resistance levels across different time frames.
Research suggests users can customize periods and toggle line/label visibility for analysis.
Overview
This indicator overlays on price charts to show trend lines connecting pivot highs and lows, identified over customizable short, intermediate, and long-term periods. It uses color-coded lines for each period and allows toggling visibility.
Functionality
It detects pivots using lookback periods (e.g., default 3 for short-term, 15 for intermediate, 40 for long-term), draws lines between consecutive pivots, and can display prioritized labels. Lines are managed for performance, removing oldest when exceeding limits.
Usage
The indicator is particularly useful for traders and technical analysts seeking to understand trends across different time frames. By observing the direction and slope of the trend lines, users can gauge the strength and direction of trends. The pivot points and connecting lines can act as dynamic support and resistance levels, aiding in decision-making for entry and exit points.
The multi-timeframe capability allows for a comprehensive analysis, combining short-term price movements with longer-term trends. For example, a trader might use short-term lines for day trading signals while referring to long-term lines for overall market direction. The customizable periods enable adaptation to various trading styles and asset characteristics, enhancing flexibility.
Customization and User Experience
Users can adjust the lookback periods to suit their trading strategy, with ranges ensuring practical sensitivity (e.g., short-term minimum of 1, long-term maximum of 100). The ability to toggle line and label visibility provides control over chart clutter, allowing focus on specific periods. Color settings, while defaulted, can be adjusted for better visualization, though the provided RGB values suggest a grayscale theme for consistency.

[CRTT] Dragon TrendModified Sonic R system based on Wyckoff logic to indicate current trend phase and strength based on the Dragon (EMA34) color.
1. Red : downtrend but the trend strength is weak and can be consider as phase |B| or |D|. Open positions in this color is risk, we should wait more.
2. Green : uptrend but the trend strength is weak and can be consider as phase |B| or |D|. Open positions in this color is risk, we should wait more.
3. Purple : uptrend and the strength of trend is strongly bullish that can be considered as phase |D| or |E| in accumulation phase. This is where we place our Long positions because the trend is strongly bullish and price could continue to run upward.
4. Blue : downtrend and the strength of trend is strongly bearish that can be considered as phase |D| or |E| in distribution phase. This is where we place our Short positions because the trend is strongly bearish and price could continue to run downward.
Adaptive Causal Wavelet Trend FilterThe Adaptive Causal Wavelet Trend Filter is a technical indicator implementing causal approximations of wavelet transform properties for better trend detection with adaptive volatility response.
The Adaptive Causal Wavelet Trend Filter (ACWTF) applies mathematical principles derived from wavelet analysis to financial time series, providing robust trend identification with minimal lag. Unlike conventional moving averages, it preserves significant price movements while filtering market noise through signal processing that i describe below.
I was inspired to build this indicator after reading " Wavelet-Based Trend Identification in Financial Time Series " by In, F., & Kim, S. 2013 and reading about Mexican Hat wavelet filters.
The ACWTF maintains optimal performance across varying market regimes without requiring parameter adjustments by adapting filter characteristics to current volatility conditions.
Mathematical Foundation
Inspired by the Mexican Hat wavelet (Ricker wavelet), this indicator implements causal approximations of wavelet filters optimized for real-time financial analysis. The multi-resolution approach identifies features at different scales and the adaptive component dynamically adjusts filtering characteristics based on local volatility measurements.
Key mathematical properties include:
Non-linear frequency response adaptation
Edge-preserving signal extraction
Scale-space analysis through dual filter implementation
Volatility-dependent coefficient adjustment, which I love
Filter Methods
Adaptive: Implements a volatility-weighted combination of multiple filter types to optimize the time-frequency resolution trade-off
Hull: Provides a causal approximation of wavelet edge detection properties with forward-projection characteristics
VWMA: Incorporates volume information into the filtering process for enhanced signal detection
EMA Cascade: Creates a multi-pole filter structure that approximates certain wavelet scaling properties
Suggestion: try all as they will provide slightly different signals. Try also different time-frames.
Practical Applications
Trend Direction Identification: Clear visual trend direction with reduced noise and lag
Regime Change Detection: Early identification of significant trend reversals
Market Condition Analysis: Integrated volatility metrics provide context for current market behavior
Multi-timeframe Confirmation: Alignment between primary and secondary filters offers additional confirmation
Entry/Exit Timing: Filter crossovers and trend changes provide potential trading signals
The comprehensive information panel provides:
Current filter method and trend state
Trend alignment between timeframes
Real-time volatility assessment
Price position relative to filter
Overall trading bias based on multiple factors
Implementation Notes
Log returns option provides improved statistical properties for financial time series
Primary and secondary filter lengths can be adjusted to optimize for specific instruments and timeframes
The indicator performs particularly well during trend transitions and regime changes
The indicator reduces the need for using additional indicators to check trend reversion
Volume MAs Oscillator | Lyro RSVolume MAs Oscillator | Lyro RS
Overview
The Volume MAs Oscillator is a powerful volume‑adjusted momentum tool that combines custom‑weighted moving averages on volume‑weighted price with smoothed deviation bands. It offers dynamic insights into trend direction, overbought/oversold conditions, and relative valuation — all within a single indicator
Key Features
Volume‑Adjusted Moving Averages: Moving averages can be volume‑weighted using the following formula: a moving average of (Price × Volume) divided by a moving average of Volume. This formula is applied across more than 14 different moving averages; however, it is not used with the VWMA, as VWMA is inherently a volume-weighted moving average.
Percentage Oscillator: Displays the normalized difference: (source – MA) / MA * 100, centered around zero for easy interpretation of strength and direction.
Deviation Bands: Builds upper and lower bands from standard deviation of the oscillator over a selected lookback, with distinct positive/negative multipliers and optional smoothing to reduce noise.
Inputs: Band Length, Band Smoothing, Positive Band Multiplier, Negative Band Multiplier.
Multi‑Mode Signal System:
1. Trend Mode – Colors oscillator according to breaks above (bullish) or below (bearish) respective bands.
2. Reversion Mode – Inverses color logic: signals overextensions beyond bands as reversion opportunities, greys inside the bands.
3. Valuation Mode – Applies a gradient color scale (UpC ⇄ DnC) to reflect relative valuation strength.
Customizable Visuals: Select from 5 pre‑set palettes—Classic, Mystic, Major Themes, Accented, Royal—or define your own custom bullish/bearish colors.
Chart enhancements include color‑coded oscillator line, deviation bands, glow‑effect midline at zero, background shading and candlestick/bar coloring aligned to signal mode.
Built‑In Signals: Automatically plots ▲ oversold and ▼ overbought markers upon crosses of lower/upper bands (in trend or reversion modes), enhancing signal clarity.
How It Works
MA Calculation – Applies the selected MA type to price × volume (normalized by MA of volume) or direct VWMA.
Oscillator Output – Calculates the % difference of source vs. derived MA.
Band Construction – Computes rolling standard deviation; applies user‑defined multipliers; smooths bands with exponential blending.
Mode-Dependent Coloring & Signals –
• Trend: Highlights strength trends via band cross coloring.
• Reversion: Flags extremes beyond bands as potential pullbacks.
• Valuation: Uses gradient to reflect oscillator’s position relative to recent range.
Signal Markers – Deploys arrows and color rules to flag overbought (▼) or oversold (▲) conditions when bands are breached.
Practical Use
Trend Confirmation – In Trend Mode, use upward price_diff cross above upper band as bullish; downward cross below lower band as bearish.
Mean Reversion – In Reversion Mode, fading extremes beyond bands may precede a retracement.
Relative Valuation – Valuation Mode shines when assessing how extended price_diff is, with gradient colors indicating valuation zones.
Bars/candles color‑coded to oscillator state boosts clarity of market tone and allows for rapid visual scanning.
Customization
Adjust MA type/length to tune responsiveness vs. smoothing.
Configure band settings for volatility sensitivity.
Toggle between signal modes for trend-following or reversion strategies.
Stylish visuals: pick or customize color schemes to match your chart setup.

TradersAID - Adaptive Smoothing Velocity ColoringTradersAID – Adaptive Smoothing Velocity Coloring
1. Overview
TradersAID – Adaptive Smoothing Velocity Coloring is a momentum visualization tool designed to highlight bullish or bearish pressure directly on price bars — helping you intuitively read directional strength and velocity shifts in any market or timeframe.
Using a Kalman-inspired estimation framework originally developed for aerospace and autonomous navigation, this tool analyzes the velocity of price movement and assigns a contextual candle color — offering a clean and readable way to interpret short-term flow.
Whether you’re navigating ranges or watching for trend continuation, this visualization simplifies complex data into actionable visual rhythm.
2. What It Does
Instead of measuring only price, the script focuses on price velocity — the rate of change over time. It computes this through a proprietary estimator that continuously adapts to volatility and momentum shifts.
The output is color-coded candles that reflect velocity dynamics:
• Green shades represent bullish acceleration
• Red shades reflect bearish velocity
• Neutral tones indicate fading momentum or transition phases
This allows you to quickly assess market tone:
• In strong trends: Watch for fading momentum (weaker colors)
• In ranges: Spot subtle shifts that hint at upcoming breakout direction
• Near potential reversals: Diverging velocity and price can stand out at a glance
3. How to Use It
• Momentum Insight:
Use color intensity to judge whether the current move is gaining or losing strength.
• Breakout Anticipation:
In sideways markets, shifting colors within the range can help anticipate which side may take control next.
• Divergence Reading:
Look for double tops or bottoms where price holds but velocity changes — often a hint that the move is maturing.
• Visual Confirmation Layer:
Combine with structural tools (like TradersAID Warning Dots or Trend Bands) to add a layer of momentum awareness.
4. Key Features
• Adaptive Velocity Model: Kalman-filter-like algorithm continuously tracks price velocity
• Gradient Candle Coloring: Smooth scale from deep red (strong bearish) to deep green (strong bullish)
• Flexible Sensitivity Modes:
o Slow – smoothest interpretation
o Regular – balanced tone
o Fast – more responsive
• RSI Normalization: Translates raw velocity into a familiar oscillator scale
• Full Overlay Integration: Candle coloring works seamlessly with other studies on the same chart
5. Technical Basis (Why It’s Closed Source)
The tool is built on a proprietary Unscented Kalman Filter implementation that estimates both price and its velocity simultaneously.
This advanced approach is rare in retail tools, drawing from real-time estimation techniques used in robotics and aerospace applications.
While the source remains closed to protect the performance logic and smoothing implementation, the core concepts — adaptive filtering, velocity-based analysis, and visual gradient output — are fully explained here for transparency and compliant understanding.
6. Settings
• Sensitivity Modes: Fast / Regular / Slow
• RSI Length: Adjustable to control the smoothness of velocity normalization
• Color Theme: Intuitive gradient from red (bearish) to green (bullish)
• Compatible Timeframes: Designed to work across all timeframes — no restriction
7. Disclaimer
This tool is for educational and informational purposes only. It does not offer financial advice, predict outcomes, or generate trading signals. Always use in conjunction with your own analysis and supporting systems.
Traders AID / Adaptive Smoothing Line (use on 1-week TF)TradersAID – Adaptive Smoothing Line (use on 1-week TF)
1. Overview
TradersAID – Adaptive Smoothing Line is a trend-following overlay designed to bring structure to noisy markets — especially on the 1-week chart, where clarity is crucial.
Instead of using conventional moving averages, this tool applies a Kalman-inspired smoothing method that adapts to changing price behavior.
Originally used in fields like robotics and autonomous driving, this filtering concept helps track directional flow without overreacting to minor fluctuations — making it easier to identify sustained moves or exhaustion patterns.
2. What It Does
The line continuously adapts to current market conditions by filtering volatility and directional flow through an internal estimator logic.
Unlike laggy moving averages, it does not simply average past prices — it adjusts dynamically based on how price behaves.
Key behaviors include:
• Directional slope that reflects trend strength
• Increased sensitivity during acceleration phases
• Stabilized flattening during sideways periods
This makes the trend easier to follow without being distracted by short-term chop.
3. How to Use It
• Trend Interpretation:
Use the line’s angle to judge momentum. Steep slopes show conviction, while flattening may signal transition or fading strength.
• Support & Resistance Context:
During trending phases, the line often acts as dynamic support or resistance — especially when combined with other tools.
• Volatility Filtering:
In consolidation, the line becomes smoother, helping reduce noise and simplify your view of structure.
• Layering Tool:
Use it as a visual foundation beneath more reactive tools like TradersAID Warning Dots or Velocity Coloring to stay grounded in context.

TradersAID / Adaptive Smoothing Channel (use on 1W chart)TradersAID – Adaptive Smoothing Channel (use on 1-Week chart)
Overview
TradersAID – Adaptive Smoothing Channel is a two-line price overlay designed to help traders interpret trend structure and shifting momentum zones on the 1-week chart only.
Unlike traditional moving averages or fixed smoothing methods, this tool uses an adaptive approach inspired by Kalman filtering — a concept widely used in robotics and control systems to track signals in noisy environments. Applied to price, this allows the band to adapt to directional flow and volatility while filtering out distracting short-term fluctuations.
1.What It Does
This tool builds a dynamic corridor around price using:
• A faster line that follows near-term directional movement
• A slower line that anchors broader market structure
Together, they form a responsive band that:
• Tilts with trend direction (via slope)
• Expands or contracts with volatility
• Fills the space between to show directional rhythm
It’s especially useful for observing how price moves within sustained trends or compression zones, helping traders visually interpret market structure with more clarity.
2. How to Use It
• Trend Structure:
Follow the slope of the band to understand overall direction. A narrowing band may indicate consolidation; a widening band may reflect strong follow-through.
• Momentum Compression Zones:
Watch for tightening distance between the lines — this may signal the market is preparing for a structural transition or breakout.
• Clarity Layer:
Overlay this tool with others (e.g. TradersAID Warning Dots) to reduce noise and improve decision context.
3. Key Features
• Dual Adaptive Lines: One fast, one slow — capturing different time dynamics
• Shaded Fill Zone: Highlights directional bias and rhythm
• 3 Reaction Modes: Slow / Regular / Fast for different sensitivities
• Overlay Style: Plots directly on price
• Minimalist Layout: Clean visual language
4. Technical Basis (Why It’s Closed Source)
This tool is based on a custom smoothing logic inspired by Kalman filtering, adapted specifically for charting market structure.
While it does not replicate a full Kalman system, it borrows key principles: dynamically adjusting to noisy input while maintaining structural clarity.
The algorithm was developed internally to provide a visual layer that integrates into the broader TradersAID analysis system — offering something distinct from public indicators. Its behavior, flexibility, and integration were designed to serve advanced structural analysis, and as such, the script is closed to protect proprietary logic and intellectual property.

Volatility & Market Regimes [AlgoXcalibur]Analyze Market Conditions Like a Pro.
Volatility & Market Regimes is a specialized, institution-inspired indicator designed to help traders instantly identify the current conditions of the market with clarity and confidence.
By combining a real-time Volatility Histogram and Strength Line with a compact Regime Table, this tool reveals four essential market dimensions—Volatility, Strength, Participation, and Noise—in a clean and intuitive format. Whether you’re confirming trade setups or managing risk, knowing the current regimes enhances awareness across all assets and timeframes.
🧠 Algorithm Logic
This sophisticated tool continuously monitors four independent regimes, each reflecting a distinct dimension of market behavior:
• Volatility – Gauges how active or dormant the market is by comparing current price action movement to historical averages. A dynamic, color-gradient Volatility Histogram transitions from Low (ice blue/white) to Medium (green/yellow) to High (orange/red), giving you an immediate assessment of volatility and risk.
• Strength – Measures directional intensity by assessing trend momentum, pressure, and persistence. A color-gradient Strength Line ranges from weak (red) to strong (green), helping traders determine if directional strength is trending, weakening, or consolidating.
• Participation – Analyzes relative volume to assess the level of trader engagement. Higher volume indicates stronger participation and conviction, while low volume may signal uncertainty, fading momentum, or even liquidity traps.
• Noise – Evaluates structural stability by measuring how orderly or chaotic the price action is. High noise suggests choppy, unstable conditions, while low noise reflects clean, stable moves.
Each regime includes a High / Medium / Low classification and a color-coded directional arrow to indicate whether condition parameters are increasing or decreasing. Together, these components deliver real-time market context—helping you stay grounded in logic, not emotion.
⚙️ User-Selectable Features
Each component of the indicator—the Volatility Histogram, Strength Line, and Regime Table—can be independently made visible or hidden to match your preference. This flexibility allows you to display only the Regime Table and move it directly to your main chart, where it auto-positions to the center-right and integrates seamlessly with other AlgoXcalibur indicators that also use data tables for a cohesive and refined experience.
📊 Clarity, Not Guesswork
Volatility & Market Regimes is a unique, institution-inspired algorithm rarely seen in retail trading. Not only does it clearly display volatility—it translates complex market behavior into a clear context to reveal what’s happening behind the candles. By decoding core regimes in real-time, this tool transforms uncertainty into structured insight—empowering traders to act with clarity, not guesswork.

TrendBoxThis indicator is called "TrendBox," designed to help traders analyze daily price ranges using several technical indicators. Below is a breakdown of its functionality, purpose, and key components:
Purpose
The script overlays indicators on a chart to assess whether the price is above or below key levels and moving in a trend.
VIX-based expected range (index fund targeted)
- This helps calculate the expected dealers range based on VIX implications. You can expect to see ranges be bought on and sold on. Moving outside this range creates heightened volatility and most of the time a gamma squeeze follows.
VWAP (Volume Weighted Average Price)
- This allows you to understand the mid point or average pricing of the daily session. If you're paying a premium or getting a discount on the daily session.
Daily Market Open
- Identifying the market open price is a key level on a daily session and allows you to identify some level of intraday trend.
Daily 4-period VWMA
- This is a crucial role of our indicator and showing short term time frame bias. Seeing price move over the top of our daily 4 level establishes a short term trend and can be used as a distribution guide, closing positions when we see longer time frame candles close under it. Vice versa for shorting.
It also displays a status box (optional) summarizing whether the price is above or below these levels, helping traders quickly evaluate market conditions.
Market Shift Levels [ChartPrime]Market Shift Levels
This indicator detects trend shifts and visualizes key market structure turning points using Hull Moving Average logic. It highlights potential areas of support and resistance where price is likely to react, empowering traders to spot early trend transitions.
Market Shift Levels are horizontal zones that mark the moment of a directional change in market behavior. These shifts are based on crossovers between two smoothed Hull Moving Averages (HMA), allowing the indicator to detect potential reversals with minimal lag.
Once a shift is detected:
A dashed horizontal Market Shift Level is plotted at the low (for bullish shift) or high (for bearish shift) of the candle.
These levels often become key reaction points during pullbacks and trend retests.
Volume or price labels are added when price wicks into these levels, helping traders gauge the strength of rejection or acceptance.
⯁ KEY FEATURES
Uses HMA-based logic to detect when price momentum shifts.
Plots clean Market Shift Levels (MSLs) that act as dynamic support and resistance.
Automatically colors bars and candles based on the price positioning relative to levels.
Labels wick-based retests with either:
Volume data of the 3-bar cluster (default).
Price level if toggled.
⯁ HOW TO USE
Look for trend shifts where the HMA crossover triggers a new level — this marks a possible structural pivot .
Use the horizontal level as a dynamic support or resistance zone — especially when price returns with wick rejections.
Watch for volume labels near the level — higher values signal stronger rejection and potential continuation.
Combine with confluence tools like Smart Money concepts or Fibonacci levels for added edge.
⯁ EXAMPLE SETUPS
After a bullish shift, wait for price to return and wick into the level — if volume spikes and candle closes strong, it’s a retest confirmation entry .
After a bearish shift, bearish wick rejections with volume may signal short re-entry zones .
⯁ CONCLUSION
The Market Shift Levels indicator offers a visual and data-backed approach to spotting trend reversals and critical retest zones. It’s a simple yet powerful tool to structure your trades around objective, repeatable market behavior — all in real-time.
Global Risk Matrix [QuantAlgo]🟢 Overview
The Global Risk Matrix is a comprehensive macro risk assessment tool that aggregates multiple global financial indicators into a unified risk sentiment framework. It transforms diverse economic data streams (from currency strength and liquidity measures to volatility indices and commodity prices) into standardized Z-Score readings to identify market regime shifts across risk-on and risk-off conditions.
The indicator displays both a risk oscillator showing weighted average sentiment and a dynamic 2D matrix visualization that plots signal strength against momentum to reveal current market phase and historical evolution. This helps traders and investors understand broad market conditions, identify regime transitions, and align their strategies with prevailing macro risk environments across all asset classes.
🟢 How It Works
The indicator employs Z-Score normalization across various global macro components, each representing distinct aspects of market liquidity, sentiment, and economic health. Raw data from sources like DXY, S&P 500, Fed liquidity, global M2 money supply, VIX, and commodities undergoes statistical standardization. Several components are inverted (USDT.D, DXY, VIX, credit spreads, treasury bonds, gold) to align with risk-on interpretation, where positive values indicate bullish conditions.
This unique system applies configurable weights to each component based on selected asset class presets (Crypto Investor/Trader, Stock Trader, Commodity Trader, Forex Trader, Risk Parity, or Custom), creating a weighted average Z-Score. It then analyzes both signal strength and momentum direction to classify market conditions into four distinct phases: Risk-On (positive signal, rising momentum), Risk-Off (negative signal, falling momentum), Recovery (negative signal, rising momentum), and Weakening (positive signal, falling momentum). The 2D matrix visualization plots these dimensions with historical trail tracking to show regime evolution over time.
🟢 How to Use
1. Risk Oscillator Interpretation and Phase Analysis
Positive Territory (Above Zero) : Indicates risk-on conditions with capital flowing toward growth assets and higher risk tolerance
Negative Territory (Below Zero) : Signals risk-off sentiment with capital seeking safety and defensive positioning
Extreme Levels (±2.0) : Represent statistically significant deviations that often precede regime reversals or trend exhaustion
Zero Line Crosses : Mark critical transitions between risk regimes, providing early signals for portfolio rebalancing
Phase Color Coding : Green (Risk-On), Red (Risk-Off), Blue (Recovery), Yellow (Weakening) for immediate regime identification
2. Risk Matrix Visualization and Trail Analysis
Current Position Marker (⌾) : Shows real-time location in the risk/momentum space for immediate situational awareness
Historical Trail : Connected path showing recent market evolution and regime transition patterns
Quadrant Analysis : Risk-On (upper right), Risk-Off (lower left), Recovery (lower right), Weakening (upper left)
Trail Patterns : Clockwise rotation typically indicates healthy regime cycles, while erratic movement suggests uncertainty
3. Pro Tips for Trading and Investing
→ Portfolio Allocation Filter : Use Risk-On phases to increase exposure to growth assets, small caps, and emerging markets while reducing defensive positions during confirmed green phases
→ Entry Timing Enhancement : Combine Recovery phase signals with your technical analysis for optimal long entry points when macro headwinds are clearing but prices haven't fully recovered
→ Risk Management Overlay : Treat Weakening phase transitions as early warning systems to tighten stop losses, reduce position sizes, or hedge existing positions before full Risk-Off conditions develop
→ Sector Rotation Strategy : During Risk-On periods, favor cyclical sectors (technology, consumer discretionary, financials) while Risk-Off phases favor defensive sectors (utilities, consumer staples, healthcare)
→ Multi-Timeframe Confluence : Use daily matrix readings for strategic positioning while applying your regular technical analysis on lower timeframes for precise entry and exit execution
→ Divergence Detection : Watch for situations where your asset shows bullish technical patterns while the matrix shows Risk-Off conditions—these often provide the highest probability short opportunities and vice versa
Trend Direction (OTC)Trend Direction (OTC)
Welcome, and thank you for your interest in the Trend Direction (OTC) indicator. This is a private, invite-only tool designed to provide a clear and objective view of market structure and trend dynamics.
Overview
The primary goal of Trend Direction (OTC) is to declutter your charts and help you visually identify the prevailing market trend through a sophisticated analysis of swing points. By automatically plotting key structural points in the market, it helps traders see the bigger picture and make more informed decisions based on classic price action principles.
This indicator is suitable for all markets (Forex, Crypto, Stocks, Indices) and works on any timeframe.
Features
Intelligent Swing Detection: Automatically identifies and plots significant market swing points.
Market Structure Labels (HH, LL, LH, HL): Get instant context on the trend's health. The indicator clearly labels swing points as Higher Highs (HH), Lower Lows (LL), Lower Highs (LH), and Higher Lows (HL), allowing you to see trend continuation and potential reversals at a glance.
Trend Dashboard: A simple, color-coded dashboard in the corner of your chart provides a real-time assessment of the trend, classifying it as "Confirmed," "Unconfirmed". This helps filter out market noise and provides an extra layer of confirmation.
Customizable Display: You have full control over the visual elements.
Adjust the sensitivity of the swing detection to focus on either short-term or long-term trends.
Toggle the visibility of trend lines and labels.
Limit the number of historical swings shown on the chart to keep your workspace clean.
Customize all colors to match your chart's theme.
How to Use
The Trend Direction (OTC) indicator is designed to be intuitive. Here’s a simple guide to interpreting its signals:
Identifying an Uptrend: Look for a consistent series of HH (Higher Highs) and HL (Higher Lows). The dashboard will likely show a "Bullish" status. A break of this pattern (e.g., the formation of an LH or LL) could signal a potential change in trend.
Identifying a Downtrend: Look for a consistent series of LH (Lower Highs) and LL (Lower Lows). The dashboard will likely show a "Bearish" status. A break of this pattern (e.g., the formation of an HL or HH) could signal that the downtrend is weakening.
Ranging or Choppy Markets: In sideways markets, you will see an alternating series of swings without clear direction. The dashboard will likely read "Neutral" or flip between "Unconfirmed" states. This can be useful for avoiding low-probability setups.
Settings
Swing Detection:

Aqua MTF Trend Oscillator——————————————————————————————————————————————————————————
The Aqua Multi-Timeframe (MTF) Trend Oscillator is a comprehensive momentum and trend analysis tool designed to synthesize
complex market dynamics into a single, intuitive oscillator. It moves beyond single-timeframe analysis by aggregating
trend information from up to five distinct, user-configurable sources—spanning different timeframes, symbols, and
moving average types.
--- CORE CONCEPT ---
The strength and direction of a trend are rarely uniform across all market perspectives. This indicator's core
principle is to quantify and weigh the trend's character from multiple angles simultaneously. By blending these
perspectives, it generates a composite score that reflects the overall "consensus" of trend momentum, providing
a more robust view than any single moving average could offer alone.
--- METHODOLOGY ---
The indicator's power lies in its sophisticated, multi-step normalization process for each analysis slot:
1. **MA Calculation:** A standard moving average (e.g., EMA, SMA) is calculated for the specified source, symbol, and timeframe.
2. **Volatility-Normalized Distance:** It first measures the deviation of price from its moving average in terms
of Average True Range (ATR) units. This volatility-normalization step is crucial for comparing trend strength
across different timeframes or instruments, as it measures distance in a context-aware manner.
3. **Magnitude Squashing:** This ATR-based distance is then passed through a hyperbolic tangent (`tanh`) squashing
function. This elegantly transforms the potentially unbounded measurement into a standardized score oscillating
between -1 (maximum bearish magnitude) and +1 (maximum bullish magnitude). This prevents extreme outliers in one
timeframe from disproportionately skewing the final result.
4. **Weighted Aggregation:** Each of these normalized (-1 to +1) scores is then combined based on a user-defined
weight. The weighted average of all enabled slots produces the final composite score.
5. **Final Scaling & Smoothing:** The composite score is scaled to oscillate between -100 and +100. An optional
final smoothing pass can be applied to this master line to reduce noise and clarify the overall trend.
All higher-timeframe calculations are performed correctly within their native context to ensure the indicator is
non-repainting and provides a stable, reliable output on the chart.
--- KEY FEATURES ---
• **Five Independent Analysis Slots:** Fully customize up to five sources, each with its own symbol, timeframe, MA type, period, and weight.
• **Advanced Normalization:** Utilizes ATR and the hyperbolic tangent function for robust, comparable trend magnitude scores.
• **Correct MTF Calculation:** Employs best practices for non-repainting data requests, ensuring historical and real-time results are consistent.
• **Weighted Composite Score:** Assign importance to different timeframes to tailor the oscillator to your specific analytical needs.
• **Optional Master Smoothing:** Apply a final MA to the composite score line for enhanced clarity and signal filtering.
• **Clear Visualization:** A simple, color-coded oscillator line shows the final trend score, while individual component trends can also be plotted.
--- HOW TO INTERPRET ---
• **Zero Line Cross:** A cross above 0 indicates that the weighted balance of trend components has shifted to bullish. A cross below 0 signals a shift to bearish.
• **Oscillator Magnitude:** Values approaching +100 suggest a strong, broad-based uptrend consensus. Values nearing -100 indicate a strong downtrend consensus.
• **Slope:** The slope of the oscillator line indicates the accelerating or decelerating nature of the aggregate trend momentum.
• **Divergence:** As with any oscillator, watch for divergences between price action and the oscillator, which can signal a potential exhaustion of the prevailing trend.

Step Channel Momentum Trend [ChartPrime]OVERVIEW
Step Channel Momentum Trend is a momentum-based price filtering system that adapts to market structure using pivot levels and ATR volatility. It builds a dynamic channel around a stepwise midline derived from swing highs and lows. The system colors price candles based on whether price remains inside this channel (low momentum) or breaks out (strong directional flow). This allows traders to clearly distinguish ranging conditions from trending ones and take action accordingly.
⯁ STRUCTURAL MIDLNE (STEP CHANNEL CORE)
The midline acts as the backbone of the trend system and is based on structure rather than smoothing.
Calculated as the average of the most recent confirmed Pivot High and Pivot Low.
The result is a step-like horizontal line that only updates when new pivot points are confirmed.
This design avoids lag and makes the line "snap" to recent structural shifts.
It reflects the equilibrium level between recent bullish and bearish control.
This unique step logic creates clear regime shifts and prevents noise from distorting trend interpretation.
⯁ DYNAMIC VOLATILITY BANDS (ATR FILTERING)
To detect momentum strength, the script constructs upper and lower bands using the ATR (Average True Range):
The distance from the midline is determined by ATR × multiplier (default: 200-period ATR × 0.6).
These bands adjust dynamically to volatility, expanding in high-ATR environments and contracting in calm markets.
The area between upper and lower bands represents a neutral or ranging market state.
Breakouts outside the bands are treated as significant momentum shifts.
This filtering approach ensures that only meaningful breakouts are visually emphasized — not every candle fluctuation.
⯁ MOMENTUM-BASED CANDLE COLORING
The system visually transforms price candles into momentum indicators:
When price (hl2) is above the upper band, candles are green → bullish momentum.
When price is below the lower band, candles are red → bearish momentum.
When price is between the bands, candles are orange → low or no momentum (range).
The candle body, wick, and border are all colored uniformly for visual clarity.
This gives traders instant feedback on when momentum is expanding or fading — ideal for breakout, pullback, or trend-following strategies.
⯁ PIVOT-BASED SWING ANCHORS
Each confirmed pivot is plotted as a label ⬥ directly on the chart:
They also serve as potential manual entry zones, SL/TP anchors, or confirmation points.
⯁ MOMENTUM STATE LABEL
To reinforce the current market mode, a live label is displayed at the most recent candle:
Displays either:
“ Momentum Up ” when price breaks above the upper band.
“ Momentum Down ” when price breaks below the lower band.
“ Range ” when price remains between the bands.
Label color matches the candle color for quick identification.
Automatically updates on each bar close.
This helps discretionary traders filter trades based on market phase.
USAGE
Use the green/red zones to enter with momentum and ride trending moves.
Use the orange zone to stay out or fade ranges.
The step midline can act as a breakout base, pullback anchor, or bias reference.
Combine with other indicators (e.g., order blocks, divergences, or volume) to build high-confluence systems.
CONCLUSION
Step Channel Momentum Trend gives traders a clean, adaptive framework for identifying trend direction, volatility-based breakouts, and ranging environments — all from structural logic and ATR responsiveness. Its stepwise midline provides clarity, while its dynamic color-coded candles make momentum shifts impossible to miss. Whether you’re scalping intraday momentum or managing swing entries, this tool helps you trade with the market’s rhythm — not against it.
RMSE Bollinger Bands + Loop | Lyro RSRMSE Bollinger Bands + Loops
Overview
The RMSE Bollinger Bands + Loops is a sophisticated technical analysis tool designed to identify and quantify market trends by combining dynamic moving averages with statistical measures. This indicator employs a multi-model approach, integrating Bollinger-style RMSE bands, momentum scoring, and a hybrid signal system to provide traders with adaptive insights across varying market conditions.
Indicator Modes
Bollinger-style RMSE Bands: this mode calculates dynamic volatility bands around the price using the following formula:
Upper Band = Dynamic Moving Average + (RMSE × Multiplier)
Lower Band = Dynamic Moving Average - (RMSE × Multiplier)
These bands adjust to market volatility, helping identify potential breakout or breakdown points.
For-Loop Momentum Scoring, momentum is assessed by analyzing recent price behavior through a looping mechanism. A rising momentum score indicates increasing bullish strength, while a declining score suggests growing bearish momentum.
Hybrid Combined Signal: this mode assigns a directional score to the other two modes:
+1 for bullish (green)
–1 for bearish (red)
An average of these scores is computed to generate a combined signal, offering a consolidated market trend indication.
Practical Application
Signal Interpretation: A buy signal is generated when both the RMSE Bands and For-Loop Momentum Scoring align bullishly. Conversely, a sell signal is indicated when both are bearish.
Trend Confirmation: The Hybrid Combined Signal provides a consolidated view, assisting traders in confirming the prevailing market trend.
Note: Always consider additional technical analysis tools and risk management strategies when making trading decisions.
⚠️Disclaimer
This indicator is a tool for technical analysis and does not provide guaranteed results. It should be used in conjunction with other analysis methods and proper risk management practices. The creators of this indicator are not responsible for any financial decisions made based on its signals.
cd_cisd_market_CxHi Traders,
Overview:
Many traders follow market structure to identify the market direction and seek trade opportunities in line with the trend.
However, markings derived from user-defined inputs can create different structures, depending on personal choices. For instance, choosing a pivot distance of 3 instead of 2 alters the structure, even though the chart remains the same. Ideally, the structure should remain consistent.
"Change in State Delivery" ( CISD ) is a widely accepted concept among traders and is considered a significant indicator of market direction based on the gain/loss of CISD levels.
In this indicator, CISD is selected as the primary criterion for marking market structure, eliminating the influence of user-dependent variations.
Here is a summary of the key logic and rules applied:
• When the price forms a new high/low, that level is only considered a pivot if a CISD has occurred.
• A bullish CISD is always followed by a bearish CISD, and vice versa.
• Pivot points form the internal structure.
• The internal structure is used to interpret the swing structure.
• Probabilities are derived from internal structure patterns.
________________________________________
Details:
How is CISD determined?
As is commonly known:
• When price makes a new high, the opening level of the first candle in the consecutive bullish candle sequence is marked.
• When price makes a new low, the opening of the first candle in the consecutive bearish sequence is marked.
• If there’s only one candle in the sequence, its opening level is used.
In a bullish market, losing a bearish CISD level (i.e., a close below it) or in a bearish market, gaining a bullish CISD level (i.e., a close above it) is interpreted as a potential shift in buyer-seller dominance and a possible market reversal.
________________________________________
How are internal (pivot) levels determined?
• When price closes below a bearish CISD level, the highest candle's high becomes a pivot high (PH).
• When price closes above a bullish CISD level, the lowest candle's low becomes a pivot low (PL).
• If the new PH is above the previous PH, it’s labeled as HH (Higher High); otherwise, LH (Lower High).
• If the new PL is below the previous PL, it’s labeled as LL (Lower Low); otherwise, HL (Higher Low).
________________________________________
Internal Market Structure:
• A series of HHs indicates a bullish internal structure.
• A series of LLs indicates a bearish internal structure.
________________________________________
Swing (Main) Market Structure:
Using internal pivots and previous swing levels, the main market structure is derived.
• A new swing high (SH) requires the price to move above the previous SH.
• A new swing low (SL) requires the price to move below the previous SL.
________________________________________
Probability Calculation:
Pivot levels forming the internal structure are coded as five-element sequences.
There are 64 possible combinations of such sequences made from consecutive PH and PL values.
Each pattern’s frequency from its starting candle is tracked.
To make it more understandable:
For example, after the four-sequence “HH, LL, LH,HL”, either HH or LH might follow.
The table shows the statistical likelihood of both possible outcomes for the most recent four-element sequence on the chart.

How reliable is it?
To assess reliability, results are calculated from the beginning using:
Success Rate (Suc. Rt) = Number of Correct Predictions / Total Predictions
This value is added to the table for reference.
It’s important to note that no statistical outcome guarantees certainty—every result offers a different interpretation. What truly matters is to avoid getting stopped out 😊.

This is a BETA version that I believe will help simplify your market reading. I’d be happy to hear your feedback and suggestions.
Cheerful Trading!
Trend Blend
Trend blend is my new indicator. I use it to identify my bias when trading and filter out fake setups that are going in the wrong direction.
Trend blend utilises the 9 EMA (Red), 21 EMA (Black), and if you trade futures or Bitcoin, you can also use the VWAP (Blue).
There is also a table at the top right that displays the chart time frame bias
I prefer to use the 1-hour time frame for bias and execute the trades on 5-minute charts, mainly, and sometimes on the 1-minute for a smaller stoploss.
Here's an example of the trade I took during the London session on XAU/USD
1 hour bias was Bearish
Price broke out of the range
I waited for the London session to open, where I ended up taking a short on the 5-minute time frame as we broke out of the pre-London range
Entry was at the Fair Value Gap (5-minute bias was also Bearish as price traded into the FVG)
Stoploss was at the last high
Take Profit was the next major support level
Another set that I like to trade with the Trend blend is when price is trending bullish and price trades inside the 9 and 21 EMA, and there is a bullish candle closer above the 9 EMA with Stoploss below the low of the bullish candle and Take profit between 1-2 Risk to Reward
Same when there's a bearish trend, I wait for price to trade inside the 9 and 21 EMA, and I'll take sells when a bearish candle closes below the 9 EMA.
This setup works best in strong trends, or it can be used to enter a trade on a pullback or to scale into an existing trade.
Consolidation Zones[RanaAlgo]Overview
This indicator helps traders identify price consolidation zones (ranges) and potential breakouts in the market. It is useful for spotting periods of low volatility before significant price movements.
How It Works
Detects Consolidation Zones
Uses the ADX (Average Directional Index) to determine when the market is in a consolidation phase .
When ADX is below the threshold , the indicator marks the start of a consolidation zone.
Draws a semi-transparent box around the price range, adjusting its height as new highs/lows form.
Tracks Breakouts
When price breaks above/below the consolidation box, it signals a potential trend continuation.
Displays breakout arrows/labels (configurable shape & style) when price exits the range.
Visual Features
Boxes highlight consolidation areas (customizable color, border, and style).
Labels show real-time status ("CONSOLIDATING" or "TRENDING").
Breakout signals appear as arrows or shapes (up/down).
Usefulness in Trading
Range Trading: Helps traders identify sideways markets for buying low and selling high.
Breakout Trading: Signals potential trend entries when price exits consolidation.
Trend Confirmation: Low ADX + consolidation box = weak trend; breakout = possible trend start.
Example: If price stays in a blue box (consolidation) and then breaks above with an arrow, it suggests a bullish move.
RSI Buy Sell Signals+ with MFI Cloud [RanaAlgo]Indicator Overview
This indicator combines RSI (Relative Strength Index) with MFI (Money Flow Index) to generate trading signals with additional confirmation filters. The key features include:
RSI Analysis (14-period) with overbought/oversold levels
MFI Cloud (20-period default) showing trend direction via EMAs
Enhanced Signal Generation with volume and trend confirmation options
Visual Elements including colored zones, signal labels, and an information panel
How to Use This Indicator
Basic Interpretation:
Buy Signals (green labels) appear when:
RSI crosses above oversold level (30) OR
RSI shows a rising pattern from oversold zone with volume/trend confirmation (if enabled)
Sell Signals (red labels) appear when:
RSI crosses below overbought level (70) OR
RSI shows a falling pattern from overbought zone with volume/trend confirmation (if enabled)
MFI Cloud provides trend confirmation:
Green cloud = bullish trend (fast EMA > slow EMA)
Red cloud = bearish trend (fast EMA < slow EMA)
Recommended Usage:
For Conservative Trading:
Enable both volume and trend confirmation
Require MFI cloud to align with signal direction
Wait for RSI to clearly exit overbought/oversold zones
For Active Trading:
Combine with price action at key support/resistance levels
Watch for divergence between price and RSI
The Information Panel (top-right) shows:
Current RSI value and status
MFI trend direction
Last generated signal
Current momentum
Customization Options:
Adjust RSI/MFI lengths for sensitivity
Modify overbought/oversold levels
