TwinSmooth ATR Bands | QuantEdgeBTwinSmooth ATR Bands | QuantEdgeB
🔍 Overview
TwinSmooth ATR Bands | QuantEdgeB is a dual-smoothing, ATR-adaptive trend filter that blends two complementary smoothing engines into a single baseline, then builds dynamic ATR bands around it to detect decisive breakouts. When price closes above the upper band it triggers a Long regime; when it closes below the lower band it flips to Short—otherwise it stays neutral. The script enhances clarity with regime-colored candles, an active-band fill, and an optional on-chart backtest table.
✨ Key Features
1. 🧠 Twin-Smooth Baseline (Dual Engine Blend)
- Computes two separate smoothed baselines (a slower “smooth” leg + a faster “responsive” leg).
- Blends them into a single midpoint baseline for balanced stability + speed.
- Applies an extra EMA smoothing pass to produce a clean trend_base.
2. 📏 ATR Volatility Bands
- Builds upper/lower bands using ATR × multiplier around the trend_base.
- Bands expand in volatile conditions and contract when markets quiet down—auto-adapting without manual tweaks.
3. ⚡ Clear Breakout Regime Logic
- Long when close > upperBand.
- Short when close < lowerBand.
- Neutral otherwise (no forced signals inside the band zone).
4. 🎨 Visual Clarity
- Plots only the active band (lower band in long regime, upper band in short regime).
- Fills between active band and price for instant regime context.
- Colors candles to match the current state (bullish / bearish / neutral).
- Multiple color palettes + transparency control.
💼 Use Cases
• Trend Confirmation Filter: Use the regime as a higher-confidence trend gate for entries from other indicators.
• Breakout/Breakdown Trigger: Trade closes outside ATR bands to catch momentum expansions.
• Volatility-Aware Stops/Targets: Bands naturally reflect volatility, making them useful as adaptive reference levels.
• Multi-Timeframe Alignment: Confirm higher-timeframe regime before executing on lower timeframes.
🎯 For Who
• Trend Traders who want clean regime shifts without constant whipsaw.
• Breakout Traders who prefer confirmation via ATR expansion rather than raw MA crossovers.
• System Builders needing a simple, robust “state engine” (Long / Short / Neutral) to plug into larger strategies.
• Analysts who want quick on-chart validation with a backtest table.

Adaptive ML Trailing Stop [BOSWaves]Adaptive ML Trailing Stop – Regime-Aware Risk Control with KAMA Adaptation and Pattern-Based Intelligence
Overview
Adaptive ML Trailing Stop is a regime-sensitive trailing stop and risk control system that adjusts stop placement dynamically as market behavior shifts, using efficiency-based smoothing and pattern-informed biasing.
Instead of operating with fixed ATR offsets or rigid trailing rules, stop distance, responsiveness, and directional treatment are continuously recalculated using market efficiency, volatility conditions, and historical pattern resemblance.
This creates a live trailing structure that responds immediately to regime change - contracting during orderly directional movement, relaxing during rotational conditions, and applying probabilistic refinement when pattern confidence is present.
Price is therefore assessed relative to adaptive, condition-aware trailing boundaries rather than static stop levels.
Conceptual Framework
Adaptive ML Trailing Stop is founded on the idea that effective risk control depends on regime context rather than price location alone.
Conventional trailing mechanisms apply constant volatility multipliers, which often results in trend suppression or delayed exits. This framework replaces static logic with adaptive behavior shaped by efficiency state and observed historical outcomes.
Three core principles guide the design:
Stop distance should adjust in proportion to market efficiency.
Smoothing behavior must respond to regime changes.
Trailing logic benefits from probabilistic context instead of fixed rules.
This shifts trailing stops from rigid exit tools into adaptive, regime-responsive risk boundaries.
Theoretical Foundation
The indicator combines adaptive averaging techniques, volatility-based distance modeling, and similarity-weighted pattern analysis.
Kaufman’s Adaptive Moving Average (KAMA) is used to quantify directional efficiency, allowing smoothing intensity and stop behavior to scale with trend quality. Average True Range (ATR) defines the volatility reference, while a K-Nearest Neighbors (KNN) process evaluates historical price patterns to introduce directional weighting when appropriate.
Three internal systems operate in tandem:
KAMA Efficiency Engine : Evaluates directional efficiency to distinguish structured trends from range conditions and modulate smoothing and stop behavior.
Adaptive ATR Stop Engine : Expands or contracts ATR-derived stop distance based on efficiency, tightening during strong trends and widening in low-efficiency environments.
KNN Pattern Influence Layer : Applies distance-weighted historical pattern outcomes to subtly influence stop placement on both sides.
This design allows stop behavior to evolve with market context rather than reacting mechanically to price changes.
How It Works
Adaptive ML Trailing Stop evaluates price through a sequence of adaptive processes:
Efficiency-Based Regime Identification : KAMA efficiency determines whether conditions favor trend continuation or rotational movement, influencing stop sensitivity.
Volatility-Responsive Scaling : ATR-based stop distance adjusts automatically as efficiency rises or falls.
Pattern-Weighted Adjustment : KNN compares recent price sequences to historical analogs, applying confidence-based bias to stop positioning.
Adaptive Stop Smoothing : Long and short stop levels are smoothed using KAMA logic to maintain structural stability while remaining responsive.
Directional Trailing Enforcement : Stops advance only in the direction of the prevailing regime, preserving invalidation structure.
Gradient Distance Visualization : Gradient fills reflect the relative distance between price and the active stop.
Controlled Interaction Markers : Diamond markers highlight meaningful stop interactions, filtered through cooldown logic to reduce clustering.
Together, these elements form a continuously adapting trailing stop system rather than a fixed exit mechanism.
Interpretation
Adaptive ML Trailing Stop should be interpreted as a dynamic risk envelope:
Long Stop (Green) : Acts as the downside invalidation level during bullish regimes, tightening as efficiency improves.
Short Stop (Red) : Serves as the upside invalidation level during bearish regimes, adjusting width based on efficiency and volatility.
Trend State Changes : Regime flips occur only after confirmed stop breaches, filtering temporary price spikes.
Gradient Depth : Deeper gradient penetration indicates increased extension from the stop rather than imminent reversal.
Pattern Influence : KNN weighting affects stop behavior only when historical agreement is strong and remains neutral otherwise.
Distance, efficiency, and context outweigh isolated price interactions.
Signal Logic & Visual Cues
Adaptive ML Trailing Stop presents two primary visual signals:
Trend Transition Circles : Display when price crosses the opposing trailing stop, confirming a regime change rather than anticipating one.
Stop Interaction Diamonds : Indicate controlled contact with the active stop, subject to cooldown filtering to avoid excessive signals.
Alert generation is limited to confirmed trend transitions to maintain clarity.
Strategy Integration
Adaptive ML Trailing Stop fits within trend-following and risk-managed trading approaches:
Dynamic Risk Framing : Use adaptive stops as evolving invalidation levels instead of fixed exits.
Directional Alignment : Base execution on confirmed regime state rather than speculative reversals.
Efficiency-Based Tolerance : Allow greater price fluctuation during inefficient movement while enforcing tighter control during clean trends.
Pattern-Guided Refinement : Let KNN influence adjust sensitivity without overriding core structure.
Multi-Timeframe Context : Apply higher-timeframe efficiency states to inform lower-timeframe stop responsiveness.
Technical Implementation Details
Core Engine : KAMA-based efficiency measurement with adaptive smoothing
Volatility Model : ATR-derived stop distance scaled by regime
Machine Learning Layer : Distance-weighted KNN with confidence modulation
Visualization : Directional trailing stops with layered gradient fills
Signal Logic : Regime-based transitions and controlled interaction markers
Performance Profile : Optimized for real-time chart execution
Optimal Application Parameters
Timeframe Guidance:
1 - 5 min : Tight adaptive trailing for short-term momentum control
15 - 60 min : Structured intraday trend supervision
4H - Daily : Higher-timeframe regime monitoring
Suggested Baseline Configuration:
KAMA Length : 20
Fast/Slow Periods : 15 / 50
ATR Period : 21
Base ATR Multiplier : 2.5
Adaptive Strength : 1.0
KNN Neighbors : 7
KNN Influence : 0.2
These suggested parameters should be used as a baseline; their effectiveness depends on the asset volatility, liquidity, and preferred entry frequency, so fine-tuning is expected for optimal performance.
Parameter Calibration Notes
Use the following adjustments to refine behavior without altering the core logic:
Excessive chop or overreaction : Increase KAMA Length, Slow Period, and ATR Period to reinforce regime filtering.
Stops feel overly permissive : Reduce the Base ATR Multiplier to tighten invalidation boundaries.
Frequent false regime shifts : Increase KNN Neighbors to demand stronger historical agreement.
Delayed adaptation : Decrease KAMA Length and Fast Period to improve responsiveness during regime change.
Adjustments should be incremental and evaluated over multiple market cycles rather than isolated sessions.
Performance Characteristics
High Effectiveness:
Markets exhibiting sustained directional efficiency
Instruments with recurring structural behavior
Trend-oriented, risk-managed strategies
Reduced Effectiveness:
Highly erratic or event-driven price action
Illiquid markets with unreliable volatility readings
Integration Guidelines
Confluence : Combine with BOSWaves structure or trend indicators
Discipline : Follow adaptive stop behavior rather than forcing exits
Risk Framing : Treat stops as adaptive boundaries, not forecasts
Regime Awareness : Always interpret stop behavior within efficiency context
Disclaimer
Adaptive ML Trailing Stop is a professional-grade adaptive risk and regime management tool. It does not forecast price movement and does not guarantee profitability. Results depend on market conditions, parameter selection, and disciplined execution. BOSWaves recommends deploying this indicator within a broader analytical framework that incorporates structure, volatility, and contextual risk management.

ATR-Normalized VWMA DeviationThis indicator measures how far price deviates from the Volume-Weighted Moving Average ( VWMA ), normalized by market volatility ( ATR ). It identifies significant price reversal points by combining price structure and volatility-adjusted deviation behavior.
The core idea is to use VWMA as a dynamic trend anchor, then measure how far price travels away from it relative to recent volatility . This helps highlight when price has stretched too far and may be due for a reversal or pullback.
How it works:
VWMA deviation is calculated as the difference between price and the VWMA.
That deviation is divided by ATR (Average True Range) to normalize for current volatility.
The script tracks the highest and lowest normalized deviations over the chosen lookback period.
It also tracks price structure (highest/lowest highs/lows) over the same period.
A reversal signal is generated when a historical extreme in deviation aligns with a price structure extreme, and a confirmed reversal candle forms.
You get visual signals and color highlights where these conditions occur.
Settings explained:
Lookback period defines how many bars the script uses to find recent extremes.
ATR length controls how volatility is measured.
VWMA length controls how the volume-weighted moving average is calculated.
Signal filters help refine entries based on price vs deviation behavior.
Display options let you customize how signals and levels appear on the chart.
This indicator is especially useful for spotting potential turning points where price has moved far from VWMA relative to volatility, suggesting possible exhaustion or overextension.
Tips for use:
Combine with broader trend context (higher timeframe support/resistance).
Use with risk management rules (position sizing, stops) — signals are guides, not guaranteed entries.
Adjust lookback and ATR settings based on your trading timeframe and asset volatility.
IDAHL | QuantEdgeBIDAHL | QuantEdgeB
🔍 Overview
The IDAHL indicator builds adaptive, volatility-aware threshold bands from two separate ALMA lines—one smoothed from recent highs, the other from recent lows—then uses percentiles of those lines to define a dynamic “high/low” channel. Price crossing above or below that channel triggers clear long/short signals, with on-chart candle coloring, fills, optional labels and even a built-in backtest table.
✨ Key Features
• 📈 Dual ALMA Bands (with DEMA pre-smoothing)
o High ALMA: ALMA applied to DEMA-smoothed highs (high → DEMA(30) → ALMA).
o Low ALMA: ALMA applied to DEMA-smoothed lows (low → DEMA(30) → ALMA).
• 📊 Percentile Thresholds
o Computes a high threshold at the Xth percentile of the High ALMA over a lookback window.
o Computes a low threshold at the Yth percentile of the Low ALMA.
o Shifts each threshold forward by a small period to reduce repainting.
• ⚡ Dynamic Channel Logic
o When price closes above the high percentile line, the “final” threshold flips down to the low percentile line (and vice versa), creating an adaptive channel that only moves when the outer bound is violated.
o Inside the channel, the threshold holds its last value to avoid whipsaw.
• 🎨 Visual & Alerts
o Plots the two percentile lines and fills between them with a color that reflects the current regime (green for long, yellow for neutral, orange for short).
o Colors your candles to match the active signal.
o Optional “Long”/“Short” labels on confirmed flips.
o Alert conditions fire on each long/short crossover.
• 📊 On-Chart Backtest Metrics
o Toggle on a small performance table—complete with win-rate, net P/L, drawdown—from your chosen start date, without any extra code.
⚙️ How It Works
1. Adaptive Smoothing (ALMA)
o Uses ALMA (Arnaud Legoux Moving Average) for smooth, low-lag filtering. In this script, the inputs are additionally pre-smoothed with DEMA(30) to reduce noise before ALMA is applied—improving stability on highs/lows.
2. Percentile Lines
o The High ALMA series feeds a linear-interpolation percentile function to generate the upper bound; the Low ALMA produces the lower bound.
o These lines are offset by a small look-ahead (X bars) to reduce repaint behavior.
3. Channel Logic
o Breakout Flip: When the selected source (default: Close) closes above the upper bound, the active threshold “jumps” to the lower bound—locking in a new channel until price next crosses.
o Breakdown Flip: Conversely, a close below the lower bound flips the threshold to the upper bound.
4. Signal Generation
o Long while the source is above the current “final” threshold.
o Short while below.
o Neutral inside the channel before any flip.
5. Visualization & Alerts
o Dynamic fills between the two percentile lines change hue as the regime flips.
o Candles adopt the regime color.
o Optional pinned “Long”/“Short” labels at flip bars.
o Alerts on every signal crossover of the zero-based regime line.
6. Backtest Table
o From your chosen start date, a mini-table displays cumulative P/L, win rate and drawdown for this strategy—handy for quick in-chart validation.
🎯 Who Should Use It
• Breakout Traders hunting for adaptive channels that auto-recenter on new highs/lows.
• Volatility Traders who want thresholds that expand and contract with market turbulence.
• Trend-Chasers seeking a fresh take on high/low channels with built-in smoothing.
• Systematic Analysts who appreciate on-chart backtesting without leaving TradingView.
⚙️ Default Settings
• ALMA Length: 14
• Percentile Length: 35 bars
• Percentile Lookback Period (offset): 4 bars
• Upper Percentile: 92%
• Lower Percentile: 50%
• Threshold Source: Close
• Visuals: Candle coloring on, labels off by default, “Strategy” palette
• Backtest Table: on by default (toggleable)
• Start Date (Backtest): 09 Oct 2017
📌 Conclusion
IDAHL blends two smooth, low-lag ALMA filters (fed by DEMA-smoothed highs/lows) with percentile-based channel construction for a self-rewiring high/low envelope. It gives you robust breakout/breakdown signals, immediate visual context via colored fills and candles, optional labels, alerts, and even performance stats—everything you need to spot and confirm regime shifts in one compact script.

RS Rating Multi-Timeframe v2RS Rating Multi-Timeframe
A relative strength rating indicator modeled after IBD's proprietary RS Rating system. This indicator measures a stock's price performance relative to the S&P 500 (or any benchmark you choose) and converts it to a 1-99 rating scale.
How It Works
The indicator calculates weighted performance ratios across four timeframes:
40% weight: 63-day (3-month) performance
20% weight: 126-day (6-month) performance
20% weight: 189-day (9-month) performance
20% weight: 252-day (12-month) performance
This weighting emphasizes recent performance while still accounting for longer-term strength—the same methodology used by leading growth stock research services.
Rating Scale
90-99: Elite relative strength (top 10% of stocks)
80-89: Strong relative strength (top 20%)
50-79: Average performance
30-49: Below average
1-29: Weak relative strength (bottom 30%)
Features
Customizable benchmark index (default: S&P 500)
Optional moving average overlay (EMA or SMA)
Visual zones with color-coded backgrounds
Signal markers when RS crosses key thresholds (80 and 30)
Info table showing current rating, daily change, MA value, and raw score
Built-in alerts for threshold crossovers
Pine Screener Compatible
This indicator includes state-based plots specifically designed for TradingView's Pine Screener. You can screen watchlists for:
RS Above 90, 80, 70, or 50
RS Below 50 or 30
RS Above/Below its moving average
Custom thresholds using the raw RS Rating value
In the Pine Screener, select the "Screener RS Above 80" output and set it to "True" (or equals 1) to find all stocks currently above 80—not just those crossing on that bar.
Usage Tips
Growth investors typically look for stocks with RS Ratings above 80, indicating the stock is outperforming 80% of the market. Combining high RS Rating with other technical signals (breakouts, volume, moving averages) can help identify leading stocks.
High-Probability Scalper (Market Open)Market open is where volatility is real, spreads are tight, and momentum shows itself early. This scalping strategy is built specifically to operate during that window, filtering out low-quality signals that usually appear later in the session.
Instead of trading all day, the logic is restricted to the first 90 minutes after market open, where continuation moves and fast pullbacks are more reliable.
What This Strategy Does
This script looks for short-term momentum alignment using:
Fast vs slow EMA structure
RSI confirmation to avoid chasing extremes
ATR-based risk control
Session-based filtering to trade only when volume matters
It’s designed for intraday scalping, not swing trading.
Core Trading Logic
1. Market Open Filter
Trades are allowed only between 09:30 – 11:00 exchange time.
This avoids low-liquidity chop and focuses on the period where most breakouts and reversals form.
2. Trend Confirmation
Bullish bias: 9 EMA crosses above 21 EMA
Bearish bias: 9 EMA crosses below 21 EMA
This keeps trades aligned with short-term direction instead of random entries.
3. Momentum Check (RSI)
RSI is used as a quality filter, not as an overbought/oversold signal.
Long trades only when RSI is strong but not extended
Short trades only when RSI shows weakness without exhaustion
This removes late entries and reduces whipsaws.
Entries & Exits
Entries
Executed only on confirmed candles
No intrabar repainting
One position at a time
Risk Management
Stop-loss based on ATR
Take-profit calculated using a fixed risk–reward ratio
Same structure for both long and short trades
This keeps risk consistent across different symbols and volatility levels.
Why This Strategy Works Better at Market Open
Volume is highest
False breakouts are fewer
EMA crosses have follow-through
RSI behaves more cleanly
By not trading all day, the strategy avoids most of the noise that kills scalpers.
Best Use Cases
Index futures
High-liquidity stocks
Major crypto pairs during active sessions
1m to 5m timeframes
What This Strategy Is NOT
Not a martingale
Not grid-based
Not designed for ranging markets
Not a “set and forget” system
It’s a controlled scalping template meant for disciplined execution.
How to Use It Properly
Test on multiple symbols
Adjust ATR length for volatility
Tune RSI ranges per market
Always forward-test before live alerts
Final Note
This strategy focuses on structure, timing, and risk, not indicator stacking.
If you trade the open, this gives you a clear framework instead of emotional entries.
If you want:
Alerts
Session customization
News filters
Partial exits
You can extend this logic without breaking the core system.

Trend Regime Bands (EMA 50 / 150 / 200)📘 Trend Regime Bands – EMA 50·150·200
Overview
Trend Regime Bands is a visual trend-context indicator designed to help users quickly understand whether the market is in a bullish or bearish regime. The indicator uses the alignment of EMA 50, EMA 150, and EMA 200 to determine overall trend direction, while additional EMAs are used only to create color-based bands for visual context. No buy or sell signals are generated.
How Trend Direction Is Determined
Trend direction is derived exclusively from the relative positioning of: EMA 50 (short-term trend) , EMA 150 (medium-term trend) , EMA 200 (long-term trend) . Bullish regime: EMA 50 ≥ EMA 150 ≥ EMA 200 . Bearish regime: EMA 50 < EMA 150 < EMA 200. These three EMAs act as the decision framework for the indicator.
What the Color Bands Represent : The indicator displays two visual bands on the chart:
Fast Band (Momentum Context) - Built using faster EMAs, Represents short-term momentum and pullback behavior. Brighter color intensity reflects stronger momentum
Slow Band (Regime Context) - Built using slower EMAs. Represents broader trend structure and regime stability.Deeper color intensity reflects stronger trend alignment
The color of both bands follows the trend direction determined by EMA 50/150/200:
Green shades indicate a bullish regime. Red shades indicate a bearish regime. Color intensity increases or decreases smoothly based on trend strength.
How to Use This Indicator
Use the bands to understand market context, not as entry or exit signals. Strong, bright bands suggest a well-established trend. Lighter bands indicate weaker or transitioning trends. The indicator works across intraday, swing, and higher timeframes. This tool is best used alongside price action, support/resistance, or other confirmation methods.
Important Notes
This indicator does not provide buy or sell signals. It does not predict future price movement. It is intended solely as a visual trend-regime and context tool
Summary
Trend Regime Bands offers a clean, distraction-free way to visualize bullish and bearish market regimes using EMA structure and color intensity, helping traders maintain directional awareness and discipline.
Trade Secrets by Pratik - Dual Intraday StrategyThe "Trade Secrets by Pratik" strategy is a high-momentum, dual-direction trading system designed to capture explosive moves after brief market pullbacks. It relies on a rigorous combination of trend-following moving averages and a strength filter.
1. Core Concept
The strategy identifies "Clean Pullbacks"—brief pauses in a strong trend where the price stays strictly away from the short-term average (10 EMA). This indicates extreme momentum, as buyers (in an uptrend) or sellers (in a downtrend) are too aggressive to allow a deeper correction.
2. Technical Filters
Trend Direction: Price must be above both 10 and 35 EMAs for Buys, and below both for Sells.
Strength Filter (RSI): Requires an RSI > 60 for Longs (to ensure high demand) and RSI < 40 for Shorts (to ensure heavy selling pressure).
3. Trade Execution
The Setup: Look for a "Floating Candle"—a Red candle for Buys or a Green candle for Sells that does not touch the 10 EMA.
The Trigger: A trade is entered only if the very next candle breaks the "Setup Candle's" high (Buy) or low (Sell).
Risk-Reward: Aim for a fixed 1:3 Ratio, ensuring that one winner covers three losing trades.
4. Safety Logic
The system includes a "No-Same-Candle-Exit" rule, preventing the script from triggering a Stop Loss on the same bar as the Entry. This filters out immediate price "whipsaws" and ensures the trade has room to develop.
Malama's Universal anchored M.A.Malama's Universal Anchored M.A. (UMA+) is a highly versatile, all-in-one moving average framework that supports over 28 different calculation methods — from classic (SMA, EMA) to advanced adaptive and Ehlers-based filters (KAMA, FRAMA, MAMA/FAMA, Super Smoother, Kalman, etc.). It features an innovative Anchored Mode that resets calculations from a user-defined point (specific date/time, bars back, or the start of data), making it perfect for analyzing price action relative to key market events like earnings, FOMC news, or cycle starts.
The MA dynamically colors based on price position, includes an optional fill for trend visualization, and features a clean on-chart dashboard with crossover alerts.
Key Features
28+ Moving Average Types: Includes SMA, EMA, WMA, TMA, VWMA, HMA, ALMA, VIDYA, DEMA, TEMA, KAMA, ZLEMA, T3, Hull-like, FRAMA, McGinley Dynamic, LSMA, SMMA, Super Smoother, Laguerre Filter, Cyber Cycle, MAMA/FAMA, Reflex, Trend Reflex, Dominant Cycle, Non-Lag MA, and Kalman Filter.
Anchored Calculations: Reset the MA calculation from a specific reference point:
By Date/Time: Analyze trends starting from a specific news event.
Bars Back: Anchor to a specific recent high or low.
First Bar: Anchor to the beginning of the available data.
Visual Anchor Marker: A dashed vertical line with an anchor (⚓) icon clearly marks the reset point.
Dynamic Coloring: The line and fill change color based on whether price is Above (Bullish) or Below (Bearish) the MA.
On-Chart Dashboard: A compact, movable table displaying:
Current MA Type & Length
Real-time Value & Price Position
% Deviation from the MA
Trend Direction (UP/DOWN/FLAT)
Anchor details (if enabled)
Strategy Ideas: Stacking for Crossovers
Create your own custom crossover strategy by adding this indicator to your chart twice! Because UMA+ supports so many calculation methods, you can "stack" two instances to build unique trend-following systems:
Add UMA+ Twice: Apply the script to your chart two times.
Configure the "Fast" MA: On the first instance, select a responsive type (e.g., Hull MA or T3) with a lower length (e.g., 9 or 14).
Configure the "Slow" MA: On the second instance, select a smoother type (e.g., KAMA or Super Smoother) with a higher length (e.g., 50 or 100).
Trade the Cross: Look for the "Fast" MA line crossing the "Slow" MA line to identify potential trend reversals or entry points. This allows you to combine the responsiveness of modern filters with the stability of classic trend lines.
Why This Indicator Stands Out
Unlike standard multi-MA scripts that only switch types, UMA+ combines extreme flexibility with Anchored Analysis. This allows traders to measure trend strength and responsiveness from significant reference points rather than an arbitrary rolling window. It is exceptionally useful for:
Post-Event Analysis: See how price respects an average anchored specifically to an earnings release or Fed announcement.
Cycle Trading: Measure trends from specific cycle lows.
Lag Reduction: Utilize advanced filters like Kalman, T3, or Ehlers series to reduce lag in trending markets while maintaining smoothness.
How to Use
Choose Your MA: Select from the extensive list. Experiment with adaptive types (KAMA, VIDYA) for choppy markets or low-lag types (Hull, ZLEMA) for scalping.
Enable Anchor (Optional): Toggle "Enable Anchor" to fix the start point of the calculation. Use the "Date/Time" method to align with specific market catalysts.
Interpret the Dashboard:
Bullish Momentum: Look for "Price ABOVE," a positive Deviation %, and "Trend UP."
Reversion: Extreme deviation values may indicate price is overextended and due to snap back to the MA.

UM Premarket Volume DashboardSUMMARY
Do you track the largest percent movers in the premarket?
Instantly compare current premarket volume to its recent average with built-in trend confirmation.
⸻
DESCRIPTION
This indicator is a compact premarket intelligence dashboard that combines live volume analysis with adaptive trend detection. It highlights unusually strong premarket activity while confirming directional bias using either a Nadaraya–Watson Estimator (NWE) or traditional moving averages.
The goal is to quickly identify symbols that are both active and aligned with trend before the regular trading session begins.
⸻
HOW IT WORKS
• Calculates average daily volume using a 50-day rolling average
• Tracks live premarket volume between 04:00–09:30 (exchange time)
• Computes a rolling average of prior premarket sessions and blends in the current day’s partial premarket volume in real time
• Highlights premarket volume in dark green when it exceeds both a user-defined threshold and the rolling premarket average
• Determines bullish or bearish trend status using a selectable method:
• Nadaraya–Watson Estimator (NWE)
• EMA, WMA, or SMA
• Trend status is based on directional slope (current value vs prior bar)
• Displays percent gain from the previous regular-session close (4:00pm ET)
• Shows total shares outstanding for quick liquidity context (when available)
⸻
DEFAULT SETTINGS
• Trend Method: Nadaraya–Watson Estimator (NWE)
• NWE Lookback Window (h): 8
• NWE Relative Weighting (r): 8
• Regression Length: 120 bars
• Premarket Average Days: 10
• Premarket Green Volume Threshold: 50,000 shares
• Average Daily Volume: 50-day SMA
• Trend Source: Close
⸻
SUGGESTED SETTINGS AND USES
• Use the default NWE settings for smoother, adaptive trend confirmation, especially on lower timeframes (1–5 minute charts) during premarket
• Switch to EMA or WMA if you prefer faster trend flips or want behavior consistent with MA-based systems
• Increase the Premarket Volume Threshold for large-cap stocks or ETFs to reduce noise
• Decrease the threshold for small-cap stocks to surface early momentum names
Ideal for:
• Premarket gap scanners
• Momentum continuation setups
• Liquidity confirmation before market open
• Building dynamic watchlists for the opening bell
This indicator is best used as a filtering and confirmation tool, not as a standalone entry signal.

This tool is designed for regime confirmation and risk management, not short-term entries. TRUE thrusts typically confirm trend continuation, while failures warn when breadth support breaks down.
Note: This indicator is intended for regime and risk assessment, not precise entries or exits.
Enhanced Trend & ML ScreenerThe Enhanced Trend & EMA Screener is a multi-symbol dashboard that aggregates trend, momentum, and structure signals across up to 8 user-defined assets.
Why this script is unique (The Problem & Solution): Traders often struggle to monitor multiple assets for confluence without cluttering their workspace with 8 different charts. Single-metric screeners (like simple EMA crosses) generate too much noise. This script solves this by fusing 5 distinct analytical engines into a single "Confluence Score" for each ticker, allowing you to monitor your entire watchlist from one chart.
How the Confluence Engine Works: Each ticker is analyzed in real-time against five criteria:
EMA Kinetics: Checks for crossovers on 10, 21, 50, and 89-period EMAs.
Ichimoku Structure: Checks if price is above (Bullish) or below (Bearish) the Cloud to ensure trades align with equilibrium.
ADX Strength: Filters out weak trends by comparing +DI and -DI.
ATR Regimes: Analyzes volatility expansion vs contraction. Bullish signals are stronger during volatility expansion.
Linear Regression Slope: Uses the slope of the regression line as a proxy for "predicted persistence."
Dashboard Features:
Symbol Row: Customizable inputs for up to 8 tickers (Default: SPY, QQQ, and Tech Giants).
Sentiment Matrix: Color-coded cells (Green/Red/Gray) for instant trend recognition.
Debug Table: An optional secondary table that shows the raw math (Price vs EMA values) for transparency.
MTF Overlay: Includes a Weekly trend check to ensure Daily signals align with the higher timeframe.
How to Use:
Setup: Add the script to your chart (e.g., SPY Daily).
Customize: Go to settings and input your preferred 8 tickers.
Scan: Look for "Full Green" rows. If a ticker is Bullish on EMA, Ichimoku, and ADX, it is a high-probability setup.
Alerts: The script generates alerts when any of your watched tickers trigger a key EMA crossover.
Disclaimer: The screener uses request.security to fetch data. While lookahead is disabled to prevent repainting, slight data lag may occur depending on the liquidity of the tickers selected.

A-Share Broad-Based ETF Dual-Core Timing System1. Strategy Overview
The "A-Share Broad-Based ETF Dual-Core Timing System" is a quantitative trading strategy tailored for the Chinese A-share market (specifically for broad-based ETFs like CSI 300, CSI 500, STAR 50). Recognizing the market's characteristic of "short bulls, long bears, and sharp bottoms," this strategy employs a "Left-Side Latency + Right-Side Full Position" dual-core driver. It aims to safely bottom-fish during the late stages of a bear market and maximize profits during the main ascending waves of a bull market.
2. Core Logic
A. Left-Side Latency (Rebound/Bottom Fishing)
Capital Allocation: Defaults to 50% position.
Philosophy: "Buy when others fear." Seeks opportunities in extreme panic or momentum divergence.
Entry Signals (Triggered by any of the following):
Extreme Panic: RSI Oversold (<30) + Price below Bollinger Lower Band + Bullish Candle Close (Avoid catching falling knives).
Oversold Bias: Price deviates more than 15% from the 60-day MA (Life Line), betting on mean reversion.
MACD Bullish Divergence: Price makes a new low while MACD histogram does not, accompanied by strengthening momentum.
B. Right-Side Full Position (Trend Following)
Capital Allocation: Aggressively scales up to Full Position (~99%) upon signal trigger.
Philosophy: "Follow the trend." Strike heavily once the trend is confirmed.
Entry Signals (All must be met):
Upward Trend: MACD Golden Cross + Price above 20-day MA.
Breakout Confirmation: CCI indicator breaks above 100, confirming a main ascending wave.
Volume Support: Volume MACD Golden Cross, ensuring price increase is backed by volume.
C. Smart Risk Control
Bear Market Exhaustion Exit: In a bearish trend (MA20 < MA60), the strategy does not "hold and hope." It immediately liquidates left-side positions upon signs of rebound exhaustion (breaking below MA20, touching MA60 resistance, or RSI failure).
ATR Trailing Stop: Uses Average True Range (ATR) to calculate a dynamic stop-profit line that rises with the price to lock in profits.
Hard Stop Loss: Forces a stop-loss if the left-side bottom fishing fails and losses exceed a set ATR multiple, preventing deep drawdowns.
3. Recommendations
Target Assets: High liquidity broad-based ETFs such as CSI 300 ETF (510300), CSI 500 ETF (510500), ChiNext ETF (159915), STAR 50 ETF (588000).

Smart Money Fluid [JOAT]
Smart Money Fluid — Accumulation and Distribution Flow Analysis
Smart Money Fluid tracks institutional-style accumulation and distribution patterns using a sophisticated combination of Money Flow Index, Chaikin Money Flow, and VWAP-relative price analysis. It aims to reveal whether larger participants may be accumulating (buying) or distributing (selling)—information that can precede significant price moves.
What Makes This Indicator Unique
Unlike single money flow indicators, Smart Money Fluid:
Combines three different money flow methodologies into one composite signal
Detects divergences between price and money flow automatically
Identifies high-volume conditions that add conviction to signals
Provides both the composite signal and individual component values
Features a momentum histogram showing flow acceleration
What This Indicator Does
Combines multiple money flow indicators into a composite signal (0-100 scale)
Identifies accumulation zones (potential institutional buying) and distribution zones (potential selling)
Detects divergences between price and money flow
Highlights high-volume conditions for stronger signals
Tracks momentum direction within the flow
Provides comprehensive dashboard with all component values
Composite Calculation Explained
The Smart Money Flow composite combines three proven money flow methodologies:
// Component 1: Money Flow Index (MFI) - 40% weight
// Measures buying/selling pressure using price and volume
float mfi = 100 - (100 / (1 + mfRatio))
// Component 2: Chaikin Money Flow (CMF) - 30% weight
// Measures accumulation/distribution based on close position within range
float cmf = sum(mfVolume, length) / sum(volume, length) * 100
// Component 3: VWAP Price Strength - 30% weight
// Measures price position relative to volume-weighted average price
float priceVsVWAP = (close - vwap) / vwap * 100
// Final Composite (scaled to 0-100)
float rawSMF = (mfi * 0.4 + (cmf + 50) * 0.3 + (50 + priceVsVWAP * 5) * 0.3)
float smf = ta.ema(rawSMF, smoothLength)
State Classification
Accumulating (Green Zone) — SMF above accumulation threshold (default: 60). Suggests institutional buying may be occurring.
Distributing (Red Zone) — SMF below distribution threshold (default: 40). Suggests institutional selling may be occurring.
Neutral (Gray Zone) — SMF between thresholds. No clear accumulation or distribution detected.
Divergence Detection
The indicator automatically detects divergences using pivot analysis:
Bullish Divergence — Price makes a lower low while SMF makes a higher low. This suggests selling pressure is weakening despite lower prices—potential reversal signal.
Bearish Divergence — Price makes a higher high while SMF makes a lower high. This suggests buying pressure is weakening despite higher prices—potential reversal signal.
Divergences are marked with "DIV" labels on the chart.
Visual Features
SMF Line with Glow — Main composite line with gradient coloring and glow effect
Signal Line — Slower EMA of SMF for crossover signals
Flow Momentum Histogram — Shows the difference between SMF and signal line with four-color coding:
- Bright green: Positive and accelerating
- Faded green: Positive but decelerating
- Bright red: Negative and accelerating
- Faded red: Negative but decelerating
Zone Backgrounds — Green tint in accumulation zone, red tint in distribution zone
Reference Lines — Dashed lines at accumulation/distribution thresholds, dotted line at 50
Strong Signal Markers — Triangles appear when accumulation/distribution occurs with high volume
Divergence Labels — "DIV" markers when divergences are detected
Color Scheme
Accumulation Color — Default: #00E676 (bright green)
Distribution Color — Default: #FF5252 (red)
Neutral Color — Default: #9E9E9E (gray)
Gradient Coloring — SMF line transitions smoothly between colors based on value
Dashboard Information
The on-chart table (top-right corner) displays:
Current SMF value with state coloring
State classification (ACCUMULATING, DISTRIBUTING, or NEUTRAL)

Adaptive 2 EMA Cloud (Trend-Aware)Adaptive 2 EMA Cloud (Trend-Aware)
This indicator combines a classic 2-EMA cloud and crossover with an adaptive Trend vs Chop filter designed to reduce whipsaws during sideways markets.
Instead of treating every EMA crossover equally, this script evaluates EMA separation and directional commitment (normalized by ATR) to determine whether price is trending or chopping. Signals can optionally be filtered so they only appear during qualified trend conditions.
What This Indicator Does
Plots two configurable EMAs with a filled EMA cloud
Marks bullish and bearish EMA crossovers
Classifies market state as BULLISH / BEARISH / CHOP
Optionally filters signals during chop
Highlights chop zones with a subtle background
Displays a movable Trend status label (Top / Bottom × Left / Middle / Right) with offset controls to avoid UI overlap
This makes the indicator useful both as:
A visual trend context tool
A signal filter to pair with discretionary or systematic entries
Quick Presets (Main Framework)
Scalp / Fast (1–2 min)
Built for speed and momentum bursts. Uses tighter EMAs and stricter filters to avoid chop on very fast charts.

slopeLen: 5–8
minDistATR: 0.18–0.30
minSlopeATR: 0.04–0.08
Slower / Swing (15–60 min)
Designed for higher timeframes and smoother trends. Allows longer trends to develop without requiring sharp acceleration.
EMA pairs (choose one):
13 / 21
21 / 34
slopeLen: 8–14
minDistATR: 0.10–0.22
minSlopeATR: 0.02–0.06
Input Guide (Streamlined)
minDistATR — EMA Separation
Sets the minimum EMA spacing (ATR-normalized) required for a trend.
Higher = stricter, fewer signals
Filters EMA compression / ranges
Too much chop → increase
Too few signals → decrease
Too low = congestion signals · Too high = late entries
minSlopeATR — EMA Slope / Commitment
Sets the minimum directional strength (ATR-normalized) of the EMAs.
Higher = stricter, fewer signals
Filters weak drift and slow grind
Signals stall → increase
Miss smooth trends → decrease
Too low = flat EMAs allowed · Too high = requires acceleration
slopeLen — Slope Lookback
Controls how quickly the filter reacts.
Lower = faster, noisier
Higher = smoother, fewer signals
3–5 responsive · 8–14 stable
atrLen — Normalization
Stabilizes distance and slope across symbols and timeframes.
Leave at 14 normally
Use 20–30 during extreme volatility shifts
Notes
This is an indicator, not a strategy. It does not backtest or predict outcomes.
No filter eliminates chop entirely—this tool is designed to reduce low-quality conditions, not remove them.
Best results come from matching presets to timeframe first, then making small adjustments only when behavior is clearly off.
EMA 8/21 & SMA 50/200 - NDAThese are a useful combination of Moving Averages.

Bens Platypus Dual VWAP_Rolling 7D vs Weekly AnchoredBen’s Platypus Dual VWAP: Rolling 7D vs Weekly Anchored (optional σ bands)
Weekly-anchored VWAP resets on Monday (exchange time). That makes sense for assets tied to a traditional weekly “market open,” but BTC trades 24/7 and often doesn’t respect Monday as a real regime boundary—so the Monday reset can create a mechanical jump that looks like signal but is just arithmetic. If you drive entries/exits off that reset, some algos will get spooked into early entries, fake “stretch” readings, or sudden mean shifts that aren’t actually market behaviour.
This indicator fixes that by plotting:
• Rolling 7D VWAP (thick aqua): a continuous trailing VWAP that does not reset on Mondays, giving you a stable mean for reversion logic.
• Weekly Anchored VWAP (thin purple): kept for context, so you can see the reset effect rather than accidentally trade it.
Result: you can visually compare the two means and quantify when “weekly structure” is useful versus when it’s just a calendar artifact on a 24/7 market.
