Period MarkerThis Period Marker Indicator for TradingView is a visual tool that allows you to highlight a specific date range on your chart. It uses a shaded background color to mark the defined period, making it easy to visually separate and focus on specific time intervals. This is especially useful for analyzing historical events, comparing specific timeframes, or marking earnings seasons or other critical periods in price action.
Key Features
Easy Date Range Selection:
The indicator has a calendar-style date input for both the start and end dates. This allows for quick and precise selection of date ranges without manually entering each date component (year, month, day).
Customizable Period Highlight:
When active, the indicator shades the background of the chart over the specified period. The default highlight color is a semi-transparent green, but this can be customized within the script to any color and opacity you prefer.
The shaded background helps you easily identify and focus on the defined date range.
Dynamic Adjustment:
You can adjust the start and end dates in real-time, and the background shading will automatically update to reflect the new period, allowing flexibility in testing and viewing multiple periods quickly.
Practical Uses
Event Marking: Track significant historical events (e.g., economic data releases, geopolitical events) to see their effects on price action.
Seasonal Analysis: Highlight and compare seasonal trends, such as quarterly earnings or year-end rallies, across multiple years.
Backtesting Specific Periods: When analyzing strategies, you can visually isolate specific date ranges to review performance or behavior in defined intervals.
The Period Marker Indicator is a simple yet effective way to enhance time-based analysis on TradingView, helping you gain insights by focusing on relevant periods with ease.
COIN/ETH RatioThis TradingView indicator calculates and visualizes the ratio between Coinbase's stock price (COIN) and Ethereum's price (ETH) to help traders compare Coinbase's performance relative to Ethereum over time. This can be useful for those interested in understanding correlations or relative strength between a traditional crypto exchange stock and a major cryptocurrency.
Rainbow EMA Areas with Volatility HighlightThe indicator provides traders with an enhanced visual tool to observe price movements, trend strength, and market volatility on their charts. It combines multiple EMAs (Exponential Moving Averages) with color-coded areas to indicate the market’s directional bias and a high-volatility highlight for detecting times of increased market activity.
Explanation of Key Components
Multiple EMAs (Exponential Moving Averages):
Six different EMAs are calculated for various periods (15, 45, 100, 150, 200, 300).
Each EMA period represents a different timeframe, from short-term to long-term trends, providing a well-rounded view of price behavior across different market cycles.
The EMAs are color-coded for easy differentiation:
Green shades indicate bullish trends when prices are above the EMAs.
Red shades indicate bearish trends when prices are below the EMAs.
The space between each EMA is filled with a gradient color, creating a "wave" effect that helps identify the market’s overall direction.
ATR-Based Volatility Detection:
The ATR (Average True Range), a measure of market volatility, is used to assess how much the price is fluctuating. When volatility is high, price movements are typically more significant, indicating potential trading opportunities or times to exercise caution.
The indicator calculates ATR and uses a customizable multiplier to set a high-volatility threshold.
When the ATR exceeds this threshold, it signals that the market is experiencing high volatility.
Visual High Volatility Highlight:
A yellow background appears on the chart during periods of high volatility, giving a subtle but clear visual indication that the market is active.
This highlight helps traders spot potential breakout areas or increased activity zones without obstructing the EMA areas.
Volatility Signal Markers:
Small, red triangular markers are plotted above price bars when high volatility is detected, marking these areas for additional emphasis.
These signals serve as alerts to help traders quickly recognize high volatility moments where price moves may be stronger.
How to Use This Indicator
Identify Trends Using EMA Areas:
Bullish Trend: When the price is above most or all EMAs, and the EMA areas are colored in shades of green, it indicates a strong bullish trend. Traders might look for buy opportunities in this scenario.
Bearish Trend: When the price is below most or all EMAs, and the EMA areas are colored in shades of red, it signals a bearish trend. This condition can suggest potential sell opportunities.
Consolidation or Neutral Trend: If the price is moving within the EMA bands without a clear green or red dominance, the market may be in a consolidation phase. This period often precedes a breakout in either direction.
Volatility-Based Entries and Exits:
High Volatility Areas: The yellow background and red triangular markers signal high-volatility areas. This information can be valuable for identifying potential breakout points or strong moves.
Trading in High Volatility: During high-volatility phases, the market may experience rapid price changes, which can be ideal for breakout trades. However, high volatility also involves higher risk, so traders may adjust their strategies accordingly (e.g., setting wider stops or adjusting position sizes).
Trading in Low Volatility: When the yellow background and markers are absent, volatility is lower, indicating a calmer market. In these times, traders may choose to look for range-bound trading opportunities or wait for the next trend to develop.
Combining with Other Indicators:
This indicator works well in combination with momentum or oscillating indicators like RSI or MACD, providing a well-rounded view of the market.
For example, if the indicator shows a bullish EMA area with high volatility, and an RSI is trending up, it could be a stronger buy signal. Conversely, if the indicator shows a bearish EMA area with high volatility and RSI is trending down, this could be a stronger sell signal.
Practical Trading Examples
Bullish Trend in High Volatility:
Price is above the EMAs, showing green EMA areas, and the high volatility background is active.
This indicates a strong bullish trend with significant price movement potential.
A trader could look for breakout or continuation entries in the direction of the trend.
Bearish Reversal Signal:
Price crosses below the EMAs, showing red EMA areas, while high volatility is also detected.
This suggests that the market may be reversing to a bearish trend with increased price movement.
Traders could consider taking short positions or setting stops on existing long trades.
This indicator is designed to provide a rich visual experience, making it easy to spot trends, consolidations, and volatility zones at a glance. It is best used by traders who benefit from visual cues and who seek a quick understanding of both trend direction and market activity.

Enhanced London Session SMC SetupEnhanced London Session SMC Setup Indicator
This Pine Script-based indicator is designed for traders focusing on the London trading session, leveraging smart money concepts (SMC) to identify potential trading opportunities in the GBP/USD currency pair. The script uses multiple techniques such as Order Block Detection, Imbalance (Fair Value Gap) Analysis, Change of Character (CHoCH) detection, and Fibonacci retracement levels to aid in market structure analysis, providing a well-rounded approach to trade setups.
Features:
London Session Highlight:
The indicator visually marks the London trading session (from 08:00 AM to 04:00 PM UTC) on the chart using a blue background, signaling when the high-volume, high-impulse moves tend to occur, helping traders focus their analysis on this key session.
Order Block Detection:
Identifies significant impulse moves that may form order blocks (supply and demand zones). Order blocks are areas where institutions have executed large orders, often leading to price reversals or continuation. The indicator plots the high and low of these order blocks, providing key levels to monitor for potential entries.
Imbalance (Fair Value Gap) Detection:
Detects and highlights price imbalances or fair value gaps (FVG) where the market has moved too quickly, creating a gap in price action. These areas are often revisited by price, offering potential trade opportunities. The upper and lower bounds of the imbalance are visually marked for easy reference.
Change of Character (CHoCH) Detection:
This feature identifies potential trend reversals by detecting significant changes in market character. When the price action shifts from bullish to bearish or vice versa, a CHoCH signal is triggered, and the corresponding level is marked on the chart. This can help traders catch trend reversals at key levels.
Fibonacci Retracement Levels:
The script calculates and plots the key Fibonacci retracement levels (0.618 and 0.786 by default) based on the highest and lowest points over a user-defined swing lookback period. These levels are commonly used by traders to identify potential pullback zones where price may reverse or find support/resistance.
Directional Bias Based on Market Structure:
The indicator provides a market structure analysis by comparing the current highs and lows to the previous periods' highs and lows. This helps in identifying whether the market is in a bullish or bearish state, providing a clear directional bias for trade setups.
Alerts:
The indicator comes with built-in alert conditions to notify the trader when an order block, imbalance, CHoCH, or other significant price action event is detected, ensuring timely action can be taken.
Ideal Usage:
Timeframe: Suitable for intraday trading, particularly focusing on the London session (08:00 AM to 04:00 PM UTC).
Currency Pair: Specifically designed for GBP/USD but can be adapted to other pairs with similar market behavior.
Trading Strategy: Best used in conjunction with a price action strategy, focusing on the key levels identified (order blocks, FVG, CHoCH) and using Fibonacci retracement levels for precision entries.
Target Audience: Ideal for traders who follow smart money concepts (SMC) and are looking for a structured approach to identify high-probability setups during the London session.

Custom AO with Open Difference**Custom AO with Open Difference Indicator**
This indicator, *Custom AO with Open Difference*, is designed to help confirm trend direction based on the relationship between the daily open price and recent 4-hour open prices. It calculates the Awesome Oscillator (AO) based on the difference between the daily open price and the average of the previous six 4-hour open prices. This approach provides insight into whether the current open price is significantly diverging from recent short-term opens, which can indicate a trend shift or continuation.
### Technical Analysis and Features
1. **Trend Confirmation**: By comparing the daily open with the mean of six previous 4-hour open prices, this indicator helps identify trends. When the current daily open is below the average of recent opens, the AO value will plot as green, signaling potential upward momentum. Conversely, if the daily open is above the recent average, the histogram will plot red, suggesting possible downward momentum.
2. **Non-Repainting**: Since it relies on completed 4-hour and daily open prices, this indicator does not repaint, ensuring that all values remain fixed after the close of each period. This non-repainting feature makes it suitable for backtesting and reliable for trend confirmation without fear of historical changes.
3. **AO Mean Calculation**: The indicator calculates the average of six previous 4-hour open prices, providing a smoothed value to reduce short-term noise. This helps in identifying meaningful deviations, making the AO values a more stable basis for trend determination than using just the latest 4-hour or daily open.
4. **Histogram for Visual Clarity**: The indicator is displayed as a histogram, making it easy to identify trend changes visually. If the AO bar turns green, it’s a signal that the 4-hour average is below the daily open, suggesting an uptrend or bullish momentum. Red bars indicate that the daily open is above the recent 4-hour averages, potentially signaling a downtrend or bearish momentum.
### Practical Application
The *Custom AO with Open Difference* is a versatile tool for confirming the open price trend without needing complex oscillators or lagging indicators. Traders can use this tool to gauge the market sentiment by observing open price variations and use it as a foundation for decision-making in both short-term and daily timeframes. Its non-repainting nature adds reliability for traders using this indicator as part of a broader trading strategy.
Volumetric Rejection Blocks [UAlgo]The Volumetric Rejection Blocks is designed to help traders identify and visualize key price levels where volumetric rejections occur, which may indicate a shift in market sentiment. These rejections can signal potential trend reversals or areas where price action is likely to face support or resistance. By drawing rejection blocks based on volumetric strength, the indicator allows users to observe where significant buying or selling pressure has been exerted, which can be used as a reference point for future price action.
Also indicator dynamically calculates swing highs and lows, analyzes bullish and bearish strengths based on volume-weighted price movements, and displays rejection blocks on the chart. Each rejection block represents an area where the price attempted to move beyond a certain level but faced rejection, either on a close or wick basis. This can be particularly useful for traders who rely on market structure and order flow to make informed decisions about entering or exiting trades.
🔶 Key Features
Swing Length Customization: Allows users to define the swing length, helping tailor the sensitivity of the swing high and low detection to the specific market conditions.
Rejection Block Visualization: Displays up to the last 10 rejection blocks based on user settings, clearly marking areas of significant bullish or bearish rejections.
Volumetric Strength Analysis: The indicator calculates bullish and bearish strength for each rejection block, based on volume-weighted price movements over the last few bars, giving insight into the intensity of the rejection.
Violation Check Type: Offers two options for violation detection—"Close" and "Wick". This allows traders to specify whether a price level is considered broken only if it closes beyond the level or if any wick breaches it.
Bullish and Bearish Block Coloring: Rejection blocks are colored to represent bullish (green) and bearish (red) rejection areas. The color transparency can be adjusted for clear visibility overlaid on the price chart.
Market Structure Labels: Labels and lines marking "Market Structure Shift" (MSS) and "Break of Structure" (BOS) are displayed, giving traders context about significant market structure changes.
🔶 Interpreting the Indicator
Rejection Blocks: These colored blocks on the chart indicate areas where the price faced significant buying or selling pressure. A green block suggests a bullish rejection (support zone), where buyers absorbed the sell-off, potentially pushing the price upward. Conversely, a red block indicates a bearish rejection (resistance zone), where sellers overpowered buyers, potentially driving the price lower.
Strength Analysis: The width of the green and red sections within a rejection block represents the relative bullish and bearish strengths. A wider green section indicates stronger bullish support, while a wider red section suggests more robust bearish resistance. This helps traders gauge the likelihood of price holding or breaching these levels.
Market Structure Shift (MSS) and Break of Structure (BOS): The indicator automatically detects and labels significant changes in market structure. An "MSS" label indicates the first break, suggesting a potential shift in trend direction. A "BOS" label indicates a subsequent confirmation in trend direction, allowing traders to recognize potential trend continuations.
Violation Check: Traders can choose how to interpret breaks of these rejection blocks. Using the "Close" option provides a more conservative approach, requiring a close beyond the level for confirmation. The "Wick" option is more aggressive, treating any wick beyond the level as a break.

Inversion Fair Value Gap Oscillator | Flux Charts💎 GENERAL OVERVIEW
Introducing the new Inversion Fair Value Gap Oscillator (IFVG Oscillator) indicator! This unique indicator identifies and tracks Inversion Fair Value Gaps (IFVGs) in price action, presenting them in an oscillator format to reveal market momentum based on IFVG strength. It highlights bullish and bearish IFVGs while enabling traders to adjust detection sensitivity and apply volume and ATR-based filters for more precise setups. For more information about the process, check the "📌 HOW DOES IT WORK" section.
Features of the new IFVG Oscillator:
Fully Customizable FVG & IFVG Detection
An Oscillator Approach To IFVGs
Divergence Markers For Potential Reversals
Alerts For Divergence Labels
Customizable Styling
📌 HOW DOES IT WORK?
Fair Value Gaps are price gaps within bars that indicate inefficiencies, often filled as the market retraces. An Inversion Fair Value Gap is created in the opposite direction once a FVG gets invalidated. The IFVG Oscillator scans historical bars to identify these gaps, then filters them based on ATR or volume. Each IFVG is marked as bullish or bearish according to the opposite direction of the original FVG that got invalidated.
An oscillator is calculated using recent IFVGs with this formula :
1. The Oscillator starts as 0.
2. When a new IFVG Appears, it contributes (IFVG Width / ATR) to the oscillator of the corresponding type.
3. Each confirmed bar, the oscillator is recalculated as OSC = OSC * (1 - Decay Coefficient)
The oscillator aggregates and decays past IFVGs, allowing recent IFVG activity to dominate the signal. This approach emphasizes current market momentum, with oscillations moving bullish or bearish based on IFVG intensity. Divergences are marked where IFVG oscillations suggest potential reversals. Bullish Divergence conditions are as follows :
1. The current candlestick low must be the lowest of last 25 bars.
2. Net Oscillator (Shown in gray line by default) must be > 0.
3. The current Bullish IFVG Oscillator value should be no more than 0.1 below the highest value from the last 25 bars.
Traders can use divergence signals to get an idea of potential reversals, and use the Net IFVG Oscillator as a trend following marker.
🚩 UNIQUENESS
The Inversion Fair Value Gap Oscillator stands out by converting IFVG activity into an oscillator format, providing a momentum-based visualization of IFVGs that reveals market sentiment dynamically. Unlike traditional indicators that statically mark IFVG zones, the oscillator decays older IFVGs over time, showing only the most recent, relevant activity. This approach allows for real-time insight into market conditions and potential reversals based on oscillating IFVG strength, making it both intuitive and powerful for momentum trading.
Another unique feature is the combination of customizable ATR and volume filters, letting traders adapt the indicator to match their strategy and market type. You can also set-up alerts for bullish & bearish divergences.
⚙️ SETTINGS
1. General Configuration
Decay Coefficient -> The decay coefficient for oscillators. Increasing this setting will result in oscillators giving the weight to recent IFVGs, while decreasing it will distribute the weight equally to the past and recent IFVGs.
2. Fair Value Gaps
Zone Invalidation -> Select between Wick & Close price for FVG Zone Invalidation.
Zone Filtering -> With "Average Range" selected, algorithm will find FVG zones in comparison with average range of last bars in the chart. With the "Volume Threshold" option, you may select a Volume Threshold % to spot FVGs with a larger total volume than average.
FVG Detection -> With the "Same Type" option, all 3 bars that formed the FVG should be the same type. (Bullish / Bearish). If the "All" option is selected, bar types may vary between Bullish / Bearish.
Detection Sensitivity -> You may select between Low, Normal or High FVG detection sensitivity. This will essentially determine the size of the spotted FVGs, with lower sensitivies resulting in spotting bigger FVGs, and higher sensitivies resulting in spotting all sizes of FVGs.
3. Inversion Fair Value Gaps
Zone Invalidation -> Select between Wick & Close price for IFVG Zone Invalidation.
4. Style
Divergence Labels On -> You can switch divergence labels to show up on the chart or the oscillator plot.
Engulfing BoxThe Engulfing Box indicator is a custom script designed to visually highlight and track bullish and bearish engulfing candlestick patterns on a price chart. These patterns are often used to identify potential reversal points, making them valuable for technical analysis. The script dynamically draws colored boxes around these patterns, helping users easily spot them in the price action.
Key Features:
Bullish Engulfing Pattern: When a candlestick fully engulfs the previous bearish candle (i.e., the close of the current candle is higher than the open of the previous candle, and the open is lower than the close of the previous candle), the script draws a green box around the bullish engulfing candle. This box is drawn from the open of the previous candle to the low of the previous candle.
Bearish Engulfing Pattern: When a candlestick fully engulfs the previous bullish candle (i.e., the close of the current candle is lower than the open of the previous candle, and the open is higher than the close of the previous candle), a red box is drawn around the bearish engulfing candle. This box is drawn from the open of the previous candle to the high of the previous candle.
Dynamic Box Management: Once an engulfing pattern is detected, a box is drawn with the following attributes:
Bullish Engulfing Box: Green, with a transparent background.
Bearish Engulfing Box: Red, with a transparent background.
The box will adjust its color to gray if the price moves past certain thresholds, indicating that the engulfing pattern may no longer be as relevant.
Max Pattern Tracking: The script limits the number of engulfing boxes tracked on the chart to prevent clutter. The maximum number of bullish and bearish engulfing patterns shown is customizable (set to 500 by default), and once this limit is exceeded, older boxes are deleted to maintain a clean chart.
Pattern Expiry: Boxes are deleted if price action moves beyond the pattern’s range, ensuring that outdated signals are removed. If the low price falls below the bottom of the bullish engulfing box, or the high price rises above the top of the bearish engulfing box, the respective box is removed. Additionally, if the low price moves below the top of the bullish box or the high price exceeds the bottom of the bearish box, the box's color is changed to a more neutral tone.
How it Works:
Pattern Detection: The script compares the current price data with the previous candlestick to detect the bullish or bearish engulfing patterns.
Box Creation: If a pattern is detected, a colored box is drawn around the candle to visually highlight the pattern.
Pattern Expiry and Cleanup: The script continuously monitors past boxes. If the price moves too far from the box’s range, the box is either deleted or altered to reflect the reduced significance of the pattern.
B ox Count Limit: To avoid clutter, the script ensures that no more than 500 bullish or bearish engulfing boxes are shown at any time.
Customization:
The number of previous bars to scan for engulfing patterns can be adjusted (maxBarsback).
The maximum number of patterns displayed at any time can be modified.
Nami Bands with Future Projection [FXSMARTLAB]The Nami Bands ( Inspired by "Nami", meaning "wave" in Japanese) are two dynamic bands around price data: an upper band and a lower band. These bands are calculated based on an Asymmetric Linear Weighted Moving Average of price and a similarly asymmetric weighted standard deviation. This weighting method emphasizes recent data without overreacting to short-term price changes, thus smoothing the bands in line with prevailing market conditions.
Advantages and Benefits of Using the Indicator
* Volatility Analysis: The bands expand and contract with market volatility, helping traders assess periods of high and low volatility. Narrow bands indicate low volatility and potential consolidation, while wide bands suggest increased volatility and potential price movement.
* Dynamic Support and Resistance Levels: By adapting to recent trends, the bands serve as dynamic support (lower band) and resistance (upper band) levels, which traders can use for entry and exit signals.
* Overbought and Oversold Conditions: When prices reach or cross the bands’ outer limits, it may signal overbought (upper band) or oversold (lower band) conditions, suggesting possible reversals or trend slowdowns.
* Trend Confirmation and Continuation: The slope of the central moving average confirms trend direction. An upward slope generally indicates a bullish trend, while a downward slope suggests a bearish trend.
* Anticipating Breakouts and Reversals: The projected bands help identify where price movements may head, allowing traders to anticipate potential breakouts or reversals based on projected support and resistance.
Indicator Parameters
Source (src): The price data used for calculations, by default set to the average of high, low, and close (hlc3).
Length: The period over which calculations are made, defaulted to 50 periods.
Projection Length: The length for future band projection, defaulted to 20 periods.
StdDev Multiplier (mult): A multiplier for the standard deviation, defaulted to 2.0.
Internal Calculations
1. Asymmetric Linear Weighted Moving Average of Price
The indicator uses an Asymmetric Linear Weighted Moving Average (ALWMA) to calculate a central value for the price.
Asymmetric Weighting: This weighting technique assigns the highest weight to the most recent value, with weights decreasing linearly as the data points become older. This structure provides a nuanced focus on recent price trends, while still reflecting historical price levels.
2. Asymmetric Weighted Standard Deviation
The standard deviation in this indicator is also calculated using asymmetric weighting:
Purpose of Asymmetric Weighted Standard Deviation: Rather than aiming for high sensitivity to recent data, this standard deviation measure smooths out volatility by integrating weighted values across the length period, stabilizing the overall measurement of price variability.
This approach yields a balanced view of volatility, capturing broader market trends without being overly reactive to short-lived changes.
3. Upper and Lower Bands
The upper and lower bands are created by adding and subtracting the asymmetric weighted standard deviation from the asymmetric weighted average of price. This creates a dynamic envelope that adjusts to both recent price trends and the smoothed volatility measure:
These bands represent adaptable support and resistance levels that shift with recent market volatility.
Future Band Projection
The indicator provides a projection of the bands based on their current slope.
1. Calculating the Slope of the Bands
The slope for each band is derived from the difference between the current and previous values of each band.
2. Projecting the Bands into the Future
For each period into the future, up to the defined Projection Length, the bands are projected using the current slope.
This feature offers an anticipated view of where support and resistance levels may move, providing insight for future market behavior based on current trends.
Forex Heatmap█ OVERVIEW
This indicator creates a dynamic grid display of currency pair cross rates (exchange rates) and percentage changes, emulating the Cross Rates and Heat Map widgets available on our Forex page. It provides a view of realtime exchange rates for all possible pairs derived from a user-specified list of currencies, allowing users to monitor the relative performance of several currencies directly on a TradingView chart.
█ CONCEPTS
Foreign exchange
The Foreign Exchange (Forex/FX) market is the largest, most liquid financial market globally, with an average daily trading volume of over 5 trillion USD. Open 24 hours a day, five days a week, it operates through a decentralized network of financial hubs in various major cities worldwide. In this market, participants trade currencies in pairs , where the listed price of a currency pair represents the exchange rate from a given base currency to a specific quote currency . For example, the "EURUSD" pair's price represents the amount of USD (quote currency) that equals one unit of EUR (base currency). Globally, the most traded currencies include the U.S. dollar (USD), Euro (EUR), Japanese yen (JPY), British pound (GBP), and Australian dollar (AUD), with USD involved in over 87% of all trades.
Understanding the Forex market is essential for traders and investors, even those who do not trade currency pairs directly, because exchange rates profoundly affect global markets. For instance, fluctuations in the value of USD can impact the demand for U.S. exports or the earnings of companies that handle multinational transactions, either of which can affect the prices of stocks, indices, and commodities. Additionally, since many factors influence exchange rates, including economic policies and interest rate changes, analyzing the exchange rates across currencies can provide insight into global economic health.
█ FEATURES
Requesting a list of currencies
This indicator requests data for every valid currency pair combination from the list of currencies defined by the "Currency list" input in the "Settings/Inputs" tab. The list can contain up to six unique currency codes separated by commas, resulting in a maximum of 30 requested currency pairs.
For example, if the specified "Currency list" input is "CAD, USD, EUR", the indicator requests and displays relevant data for six currency pair combinations: "CADUSD", "USDCAD", "CADEUR", "EURCAD", "USDEUR", "EURUSD". See the "Grid display" section below to understand how the script organizes the requested information.
Each item in the comma-separated list must represent a valid currency code. If the "Currency list" input contains an invalid currency code, the corresponding cells for that currency in the "Cross rates" or "Heat map" grid show "NaN" values. If the list contains empty items, e.g., "CAD, ,EUR, ", the indicator ignores them in its data requests and calculations.
NOTE: Some uncommon currency pair combinations might not have data feeds available. If no available symbols provide the exchange rates between two specified currencies, the corresponding table cells show "NaN" results.
Realtime data
The indicator retrieves realtime market prices, daily price changes, and minimum tick sizes for all the currency pairs derived from the "Currency list" input. It updates the retrieved information shown in its grid display after new ticks become available to reflect the latest known values.
NOTE: Pine scripts execute on realtime bars only when new ticks are available in the chart's data feed. If no new updates are available from the chart's realtime feed, it may cause a delay in the data the indicator receives.
Grid display
This indicator displays the requested data for each currency pair in a table with cells organized as a grid. Each row name corresponds to a pair's base currency , and each column name corresponds to a quote currency . The cell at the intersection of a specific row and column shows the value requested from the corresponding currency pair.
For example, the cell at the intersection of a "EUR" row and "USD" column shows the data retrieved for the "EURUSD" currency pair, and the cell at the "USD" row and "EUR" column shows data for the inverse pair ("USDEUR").
Note that the main diagonal cells in the table, where rows and columns with the same names intersect, are blank. The exchange rate from one currency to itself is always 1, and no Forex symbols such as "EUREUR" exist.
The dropdown input at the top of the "Settings/Inputs" tab determines the type of information displayed in the table. Two options are available: "Cross rates" and "Heat map" . Both modes color their cells for light and dark themes separately based on the inputs in the "Colors" section.
Cross rates
When a user selects the "Cross rates" display mode, the table's cells show the latest available exchange rate for each currency pair, emulating the behavior of the Cross Rates widget. Each cell's value represents the amount of the quote currency (column name) that equals one unit of the base currency (row name). This display allows users to compare cross rates across currency pairs, and their inverses.
The background color of each cell changes based on the most recent update to the exchange rate, allowing users to monitor the direction of short-term fluctuations as they occur. By default, the background turns green (positive cell color) when the cross rate increases from the last recorded update and red (negative cell color) when the rate decreases. The cell's color reverts to the chart's background color after no new updates are available for 200 milliseconds.
Heat map
When a user selects the "Heat map" display mode, the table's cells show the latest daily percentage change of each currency pair, emulating the behavior of the Heat Map widget.
In this mode, the background color of each cell depends on the corresponding currency pair's daily performance. Heat maps typically use colors that vary in intensity based on the calculated values. This indicator uses the following color coding by default:
• Green (Positive cell color): Percentage change > +0.1%
• No color: Percentage change between 0.0% and +0.1%
• Bright red (Negative cell color): Percentage change < -0.1%
• Lighter/darker red (Minor negative cell color): Percentage change between 0.0% and -0.1%
█ FOR Pine Script™ CODERS
• This script utilizes dynamic requests to iteratively fetch information from multiple contexts using a single request.security() instance in the code. Previously, `request.*()` functions were not allowed within the local scopes of loops or conditional structures, and most `request.*()` function parameters, excluding `expression`, required arguments of a simple or weaker qualified type. The new `dynamic_requests` parameter in script declaration statements enables more flexibility in how scripts can use `request.*()` calls. When its value is `true`, all `request.*()` functions can accept series arguments for the parameters that define their requested contexts, and `request.*()` functions can execute within local scopes. See the Dynamic requests section of the Pine Script™ User Manual to learn more.
• Scripts can execute up to 40 unique `request.*()` function calls. A `request.*()` call is unique only if the script does not already call the same function with the same arguments. See this section of the User Manual's Limitations page for more information.
• Typically, when requesting higher-timeframe data with request.security() using barmerge.lookahead_on as the `lookahead` argument, the `expression` argument should use the history-referencing operator to offset the series, preventing lookahead bias on historical bars. However, the request.security() call in this script uses barmerge.lookahead_on without offsetting the `expression` because the script only displays results for the latest historical bar and all realtime bars, where there is no future information to leak into the past. Instead, using this call on those bars ensures each request fetches the most recent data available from each context.
• The request.security() instance in this script includes a `calc_bars_count` argument to specify that each request retrieves only a minimal number of bars from the end of each symbol's historical data feed. The script does not need to request all the historical data for each symbol because it only shows results on the last chart bar that do not depend on the entire time series. In this case, reducing the retrieved bars in each request helps minimize resource usage without impacting the calculated results.

Average Bullish & Bearish Percentage ChangeAverage Bullish & Bearish Percentage Change
Processes two key aspects of directional market movements relative to price levels. Unlike traditional momentum tools, it separately calculates the average of positive and negative percentage changes in price using user-defined independent counts of actual past bullish and bearish candles. This approach delivers comprehensive and precise view of average percentage changes.
FEATURES:
Count-Based Averages: Separate averaging of bullish and bearish %𝜟 based on their respective number of occurrences ensures reliable and precise momentum calculations.
Customizable Averaging: User-defined number of candle count sets number of past bullish and bearish candles used in independent averaging.
Two Methods of Candle Metrics:
1. Net Move: Focuses on the body range of the candle, emphasizing the net directional movement.
2. Full Capacity: Incorporates wicks and gaps to capture full potential of the bar.
The indicator classifies Doji candles contextually, ensuring they are appropriately factored into the bullish or bearish metrics to avoid mistakes in calculation:
1. Standard Doji - open equals close.
2. Flat Close Doji - Candles where the close matches the previous close.
Timeframe Flexibility:
The indicator can be applied across any desired timeframe, allowing for seamless multi-timeframe analysis.
HOW TO USE
Select Method of Bar Metrics:
Net Move: For analyzing markets where price changes are consistent and bars are close to each other.
Full Capacity: Incorporates wicks and gaps, providing relevant figures for markets like stocks
Set the number of past candles to average:
🟩 Average Past Bullish Candles (Default: 10)
🟥 Average Past Bullish Candles (Default: 10)
Why Percentage Change Is Important
Standardized Measurement Across Assets:
Percentage change normalizes price movements, making it easier to compare different assets with varying price levels. For example, a $1 move in a $10 stock is significant, but the same $1 move in a $1,000 stock is negligible.
Highlights Relative Impact:
By measuring the price change as a percentage of the close, traders can better understand the relative impact of a move on the asset’s overall value.
Volatility Insights:
A high percentage change indicates heightened volatility, which can be a signal of potential opportunities or risks, making it more actionable than raw price changes. Percents directly reflect the strength of buying or selling pressure, providing a clearer view of momentum compared to raw price moves, which may not account for the relative size of the move.
By focusing on percentage change, this indicator provides a normalized, actionable, and insightful measure of market momentum, which is critical for comparing, analyzing, and acting on price movements across various assets and conditions.
Simplified MetroThis is a derivative of J. Welles Wilder's RSI (Relative Strength Index) from 1978. This version uses a fast and slow offset of the RSI to create signals. The RSI itself has been removed from this version for visual simplicity, but its setting still has an impact on the fast and slow stepped lines.
The "RSI Period" sets the number of bars used to calculate the RSI. A higher value results in a smoother RSI, while a lower value makes it more reactive to price changes.
The "Fast Step Size" defines the step size for the fast trend line. A larger value makes the fast step line less sensitive to RSI changes, creating a smoother line.
The "Slow Step Size" defines the step size for the slow trend line. A larger value makes the slow step line less sensitive to RSI changes, resulting in a smoother line compared to the fast step.
When the faster blue line crosses and closes above the slower fuchsia line we have a signal to go long, and vice versa we take a short position.
This indicator should not be traded on its own, but could be a valuable addition to a system used for identifying trends.
Higher Time Frame Support/Resistance [BigBeluga]The Higher Time Frame Support/Resistance indicator is a tool designed to display pivot points derived from higher timeframes on your current chart. These pivot points are calculated based on the highs and lows of price action in different timeframes, and the indicator draws horizontal lines to represent these levels. These lines act as potential support and resistance zones, giving traders key market levels that may influence future price movement.
Each pivot line is color-coded and labeled with its price value and the timeframe it originates from. This allows traders to clearly differentiate between the significance of the levels based on their timeframe. For example, weekly pivot levels may represent stronger, more long-term support and resistance, while hourly pivots offer more immediate, short-term levels to watch.
🔵 IDEA
The Higher Time Frame Support/Resistance indicator is designed to simplify the process of tracking key support and resistance levels across multiple timeframes. Pivot points, which represent turning points in the market, are essential for identifying areas where price might reverse or break out. By displaying these levels from higher timeframes directly on the current chart, traders can quickly identify and react to critical areas in the market without needing to switch between different timeframe charts.
The indicator labels each pivot point with the specific timeframe it comes from (e.g., 4H, 1D, 1W), making it easy for traders to assess the relative strength of each level. Stronger levels from higher timeframes are likely to act as more significant barriers or support zones, while lower timeframe levels can be used for more precise entries and exits.
🔵 KEY FEATURES
Pivot Levels from Multiple Timeframes:
The indicator calculates pivot highs and lows from various higher timeframes (e.g., 4H, 1D, 1W) and plots these levels on the current chart. These pivot points are represented by horizontal lines that extend across the chart, serving as potential support and resistance zones.
Color-Coded Support and Resistance Lines:
Each pivot level is color-coded based on its timeframe, helping traders quickly differentiate between short-term and long-term support and resistance. This visual aid simplifies the analysis and allows for a clearer understanding of key market levels.
Price Labels and Timeframe Information:
In addition to the pivot lines, the indicator displays labels at each level with the corresponding price and timeframe. For example, a label may show "D Pivot High" followed by the exact price. This helps traders understand the origin and significance of each line, allowing for more informed trading decisions.
Labels up and down mark highs and lows from higher timeframes:
Pivot Shadows for Enhanced Clarity:
The indicator can also draw shadow lines that represent the pivot points but with increased transparency. These shadows allow traders to keep track of previous pivots without cluttering the chart with too many solid lines. The width and transparency of these shadows can be customized in the settings.
🔵 HOW TO USE
🔵 CUSTOMIZATION
Timeframes and Pivot Length: Customize which higher timeframes (e.g., 4H, 1D, 1W) you want to display pivot levels from. Adjust the pivot length to control how sensitive the indicator is in detecting market highs and lows.
Line Style and Colors: Adjust the line style (solid, dashed, dotted) and colors for each timeframe to match your personal preference or chart theme. This customization helps in maintaining a clear and visually appealing chart.
Shadow Line Width and Transparency: Control the width and transparency of the shadow pivot lines to reduce chart clutter while still keeping track of key historical levels.
ORB with ATR Trailing SL [Bluechip Algos]This is a simple ORB (Opening Range Breakout) Indicator that not only signals breakout directions based on the opening session range but also includes trailing stop levels to manage ongoing trades. Instead of regular fixed Stop loss, we use ATR indicator (ATR based SL) to trail the stop loss that might help in maximizing the profitable trades. This helps especially during the trending days where market moves unidirectionally.
About the Indicator
Opening Range Identification: The indicator defines an initial session timeframe and captures the highest and lowest prices during this period.
Breakout Signals: It signals potential entry points when the price crosses these range boundaries.
Trailing Stop Calculation: Customizable trailing stop-loss based on ATR percentage, helping users lock in profits.
Features
Session Customization: User-defined session for setting the opening range.
Entry Signal Customization: Allows configuration for breakouts on either a closing basis or upon touching the level.
Automatic Stop-Loss Adjustments: Dynamic trailing stop levels that adapt to both long and short entries.
Visual Display: Highlights breakout levels and plots lines representing stop-loss levels.
Understanding the Indicator
Range Calculation: After defining the session, the high and low of the session are locked. The high serves as the upper breakout boundary, and the low as the lower boundary.
Signals (Buy and Sell): The indicator uses crossover conditions:
Buy Signal ("B") when price crosses above the ORB high.
Sell Signal ("S") when price crosses below the ORB low.
Trail Stop Calculation: When a signal is triggered, a trailing stop level is set and updates as the trade progresses:
Long positions have a stop-loss based on a percentage below the last closing price.
Short positions have a stop-loss based on a percentage above the last closing price.
Input Parameters
Session Time (ORB Session Time): Start and end times for setting the ORB range.
Signal Configuration: Choice between "CLOSE" (signal on close) or "TOUCH" (signal as soon as level is touched).
ATR Percentage: Sets the percentage for the trailing stop calculation.
Alex JMA RSX Clone with Price & Divergence [LazyBear]Indicator Description:
RSX Indicator (RSXC_LB): This script is based on a clone of the JMA RSX (Relative Strength Index clone by LazyBear). It is a momentum-based indicator that helps identify overbought and oversold levels, as well as potential trend reversals.

Triangle markers indicate strong divergences, making it easier for the user to spot critical moments.
This visual enhancement aims to provide clearer and more intuitive signals for traders using the RSX indicator, helping them identify trend changes and reversals more effectively.
Probabilistic Trend Oscillator** MACD PLOTS ARE NOT PART OF THE INDICATOR IT IS FOR COMPARSION**
The "Probabilistic Trend Oscillator" is a technical indicator designed to measure trend strength and direction by analyzing price behavior relative to a moving average over both long-term and short-term periods. This indicator incorporates several innovative features, including probabilistic trend detection, enhanced strength scaling, and percentile-based thresholds for identifying potential trend reversals.
Key Components
Inputs:
The indicator allows users to customize several key parameters:
EMA Length defines the period for the Exponential Moving Average (EMA), which serves as a baseline to classify trend direction.
Long and Short Term Lengths provide customizable periods for analyzing trend strength over different timeframes.
Signal Line Length is used to smooth the trend strength data, helping users spot more reliable trend signals.
Extreme Value Lookback Length controls how far back to look when calculating percentile thresholds, which are used to identify overbought and oversold zones.
Trend Classification:
The indicator categorizes price behavior into four conditions:
Green: Price closes above the open and is also above the EMA, suggesting a strong upward trend.
Red: Price closes below the open but is above the EMA, indicating weaker upward pressure.
Green1: Price closes above the open but remains below the EMA, representing weak upward movement.
Red1: Price closes below the open and the EMA, signaling a strong downward trend.
Trend Strength Calculation:
The script calculates long-term and short-term trend values based on the frequency of these trend conditions, normalizing them to create probabilistic scores.
It then measures the difference between the short-term and long-term trend values, creating a metric that reflects the intensity of the current trend. This comparison provides insight into whether the trend is strengthening or weakening.
Enhanced Trend Strength:
To emphasize significant movements, the trend strength metric is scaled by the average absolute price change (distance between close and open prices). This creates an "enhanced trend strength" value that highlights periods with high momentum.
Users can toggle between two variations of trend strength:
Absolute Trend Strength is a straightforward measure of the trend's force.
Relative Trend Strength accounts for deviations between short term and long term values, focusing on how current price action differs from a long term behavior.
Percentile-Based Thresholds:
The indicator calculates percentile thresholds over the specified lookback period to mark extreme values:
The 97th and 3rd percentiles act as overbought and oversold zones, respectively, indicating potential reversal points.
Intermediate levels (75th and 25th percentiles) are added to give additional context for overbought or oversold conditions, creating a probabilistic range.
Visualization:
The selected trend strength value (either absolute or relative) is plotted in orange.
Overbought (green) and oversold (red) percentiles are marked with dashed lines and filled in blue, highlighting potential reversal zones.
The signal line—a smoothed EMA of the trend strength—is plotted in white, helping users to confirm trend changes.
A gray horizontal line at zero acts as a baseline, further clarifying the strength of upward vs. downward trends.
Summary
This indicator provides a flexible, probabilistic approach to trend detection, allowing users to monitor trend strength with customizable thresholds and lookback periods. By combining percentile-based thresholds with enhanced trend strength scaling, it offers insights into market reversals and momentum shifts, making it a valuable tool for both trend-following and counter-trend trading strategies.
Depth Trend Indicator - RSIDepth Trend Indicator - RSI
This indicator is designed to identify trends and gauge pullback strength by combining the power of RSI and moving averages with a depth-weighted calculation. The script was created by me, Nathan Farmer and is based on a multi-step process to determine trend strength and direction, adjusted by a "depth" factor for more accurate signal analysis.
How It Works
Trend Definition Using RSI: The RSI Moving Average ( rsiMa ) is calculated to assess the current trend, using customizable parameters for the RSI Period and MA Period .
Trends are defined as follows:
Uptrend : RSI MA > Critical RSI Value
Downtrend : RSI MA < Critical RSI Value
Pullback Depth Calculation: To measure pullback strength relative to the current trend, the indicator calculates a Depth Percentage . This is defined as the portion of the gap between the moving average and the price covered by a pullback.
Depth-Weighted RSI Calculation: The Depth Percentage is then applied as a weighting factor on the RSI Moving Average , giving us a Weighted RSI line that adjusts to the depth of pullbacks. This line is rather noisy, and as such we take a moving average to smooth out some of the noise.
Key Parameters
RSI Period : The period for RSI calculation.
MA Period : The moving average period applied to RSI.
Price MA Period : Determines the SMA period for price, used to calculate pullback depth.
Smoothing Length : Length of smoothing applied to the weighted RSI, creating a more stable signal.
RSI Critical Value : The critical value (level) used in determining whether we're in an uptrend or a downtrend.
Depth Critical Value : The critical value (level) used in determining whether or not the depth weighted value confirms the state of a trend.
Notes:
As always, backtest this indicator and modify the parameters as needed for your specific asset, over your specific timeframe. I chose these defaults as they worked well on the assets I look at, but it is likely you tend to look at a different group of assets over a different timeframe than what I do.
Large pullbacks can create large downward spikes in the weighted line. This isn't graphically pleasing, but I have tested it with various methods of normalization and smoothing and found the simple smoothing used in the indicator to be best despite this.
Market Structure Algo V2 [OmegaTools]The Market Structure Algo V2 (MS Algo V2) is an advanced TradingView indicator developed by OmegaTools to provide traders with a comprehensive analysis of market structure. This tool refines the insights provided by its predecessor, combining enhanced pivot point analysis, dynamic market structure scoring, and zone visualization to deliver an intuitive view of potential market movements. Through custom settings, the MS Algo V2 allows users to tailor the indicator to fit their trading strategies more closely, offering enhanced adaptability to both short-term and long-term trends.
Core Functionality
The MS Algo V2 differentiates between internal and external market structures by analyzing pivot highs and lows over user-defined periods. The internal market structure focuses on shorter timeframes, providing insights into recent price action, while the external structure considers broader trends. This dual-layered approach helps traders distinguish between immediate and overarching market trends.
The indicator introduces improved visualization for areas of interest or zones around pivot points, adjustable through zone distance settings. These zones serve as potential support and resistance areas, helping traders anticipate price reactions at key levels. In addition to the zones, the indicator now provides gradient-based color coding on bars, reflecting the market structure’s bullish or bearish intensity. This visual enhancement aids in quickly interpreting the current trend's strength.
Dynamic signal generation has been refined in MS Algo V2. The indicator now offers both classic signals and breakout signals based on the market structure, including entries, exits, and change-of-character (CHoCH) alerts. Signals are generated based on price interactions with pivot levels, indicating potential long and short opportunities.
Operational Mechanism
The MS Algo V2 calculates pivot highs and lows over specified periods to define internal and external market structures. A market structure score is derived from these pivot points, classifying the market into bullish or bearish extremes. Signals are generated as the closing price interacts with these levels, marking entry and exit points based on the calculated structure.
A new feature in this version is zone visualization, where zones are plotted around a dynamic moving average derived from the exponential and simple moving averages (EMA and SMA). The zones are adjusted based on ATR (Average True Range) and the specified zone distance percentile, providing a clear visual representation of potential support and resistance regions. The external and internal zones are represented with different levels of transparency for quick reference.
Usage Guidelines
To apply the MS Algo V2 to your TradingView charts, adjust the internal and external market structure settings to match your preferred analysis timeframes. The line style and width of each structure can also be customized for a tailored view. The Zone Distance setting allows users to define the percentile range of the zones around the moving average, providing further flexibility in identifying potential areas of support and resistance.
For a color-coded overview of market sentiment, the bar gradient feature can be enabled. This option uses a gradient that reflects the bullish or bearish intensity of the market structure, giving traders a visual cue on the market’s overall trend. Color-coded signals and zone fill areas further assist in interpreting the current market structure and identifying potential trade areas.
The indicator includes customizable alerts for long and short signals, as well as specific breakout alerts (BOS) and change-of-character (CHoCH) signals. These alerts can help traders stay informed about significant market structure changes, supporting timely trading decisions.
Understanding the Indicator’s Originality
The MS Algo V2 stands out due to its robust integration of pivot analysis, zone visualization, and market structure scoring, offering a unique perspective on market dynamics. With features like color-coded signals, bar gradients, and configurable alerts, MS Algo V2 provides an edge in understanding both the current market environment and potential turning points. This indicator’s ability to represent the market’s structure visually makes it a powerful addition to any trader’s toolkit, especially for those seeking a deeper, multi-layered approach to market analysis.
ATT Model with Buy/Sell SignalsIndicator Summary
This indicator is based on the ATT (Arithmetic Time Theory) model, using specific turning points derived from the ATT sequence (3, 11, 17, 29, 41, 47, 53, 59) to identify potential market reversals. It also integrates the RSI (Relative Strength Index) to confirm overbought and oversold conditions, triggering buy and sell signals when conditions align with the ATT sequence and RSI level.
Turning Points: Detected based on the ATT sequence applied to bar count. This suggests high-probability areas where the market could turn.
RSI Filter: Adds strength to the signals by ensuring buy signals occur when RSI is oversold (<30) and sell signals when RSI is overbought (>70).
Max Signals Per Session: Limits signals to two per session to reduce over-trading.
Entry Criteria
Buy Signal: Enter a buy trade if:
The indicator displays a green "BUY" marker.
RSI is below the oversold level (default <30), suggesting a potential upward reversal.
Sell Signal: Enter a sell trade if:
The indicator displays a red "SELL" marker.
RSI is above the overbought level (default >70), indicating a potential downward reversal.
Exit Criteria
Take Profit (TP):
Define TP as a fixed percentage or point value based on the asset's volatility. For example, set TP at 1.5-2x the risk, or a predefined point target (like 50-100 points).
Alternatively, exit the position when price approaches a key support/resistance level or the next significant swing high/low.
Stop Loss (SL):
Place the SL below the recent low (for buys) or above the recent high (for sells).
Set a fixed SL in points or percentage based on the asset’s average movement range, like an ATR-based stop, or limit it to a specific risk amount per trade (1-2% of account).
Trailing into Profit
Use a trailing strategy to lock in profits and let winning trades run further. Two main options:
ATR Trailing Stop:
Set the trailing stop based on the ATR (Average True Range), adjusting every time a new candle closes. This can help in volatile markets by keeping the stop at a consistent distance based on recent price movement.
Break-Even and Partial Profits:
When the price moves in your favor by a set amount (e.g., 1:1 risk/reward), move SL to the entry (break-even).
Take partial profit at intermediate levels (e.g., 50% at 1:1 RR) and trail the remainder.
Risk Management for Prop Firm Evaluation
Prop firms often have strict rules on daily loss limits, max drawdowns, and minimum profit targets. Here’s how to align your strategy with these:
Limit Risk per Trade:
Keep risk per trade to a conservative level (e.g., 1% or lower of your account balance). This allows for more room in case of a drawdown and aligns with most prop firm requirements.
Daily Loss Limits:
Set a daily stop-loss that ensures you don’t exceed the firm’s rules. For example, if the daily limit is 5%, stop trading once you reach a 3-4% drawdown.
Avoid Over-Trading:
Stick to the max signals per session rule (one or two trades). Taking only high-probability setups reduces emotional and reactive trades, preserving capital.
Stick to a Profit Target:
Aim to meet the evaluation’s profit goal efficiently but avoid risky or oversized trades to reach it faster.
Avoid Major Economic Events:
News events can disrupt technical setups. Avoid trading around significant releases (like FOMC or NFP) to reduce the chance of sudden losses due to high volatility.
Summary
Using this strategy with discipline, a structured entry/exit approach, and tight risk management can maximize your chances of passing a prop firm evaluation. The ATT model’s turning points, combined with the RSI, provide an edge by highlighting reversal zones, while limiting trades to 1-2 per session helps maintain controlled risk.
Multi-Trend SynchronizerMulti-Trend Synchronizer
The Multi-Trend Synchronizer indicator provides a multi-timeframe trend analysis using SMMA (Smoothed Moving Average) across three user-defined timeframes: short, medium, and long-term. By synchronizing trends from these timeframes, this tool helps traders identify stronger alignment signals for potential trend continuation or reversal, enhancing decision-making in various market conditions.
Key Features
Multi-Timeframe Trend Analysis: Users can set three different timeframes, allowing flexibility in tracking trends over short (e.g., 15 minutes), medium (e.g., 1 hour), and long-term (e.g., 4 hours) intervals.
Clear Trend Visualization: The indicator plots SMMA lines on the main chart, color-coded by timeframe for intuitive reading. It also displays an at-a-glance trend alignment table, showing the current trend direction (bullish, bearish, or neutral) for each timeframe.
Buy and Sell Signals: Alignment across all timeframes generates Buy and Sell signals, visualized on the chart with distinct markers to aid entry/exit timing.
Usage Notes
This indicator is best used for trend-following strategies. The SMMA-based design provides smoother trend transitions, reducing noise compared to standard moving averages. However, as with all indicators, it is not foolproof and should be combined with other analyses for robust decision-making.
How It Works
The indicator calculates SMMA values for each selected timeframe and tracks trend changes based on SMMA's direction. When all timeframes show a unified direction (either bullish or bearish), the indicator generates a Buy or Sell signal. A table displays real-time trend direction, with color codes to assist traders in quickly assessing the market's overall direction.
Indicator Settings
Timeframes: Customize each SMMA timeframe to align with personal trading strategies or market conditions.
SMMA Length: Adjust the length of the SMMA to control sensitivity. Lower values may increase signal frequency, while higher values provide smoother, more stable trend indicators.
Disclaimer: As with any trend-following tool, this indicator is most effective when used in trending markets and may be less reliable in sideways conditions. Past performance does not guarantee future results, and users should be cautious of market volatility.
