Central Bank Assets YoY % with StdDev BandsCentral Bank Assets YoY % with StdDev Bands - Indicator Documentation
Overview
This indicator tracks the year-over-year (YoY) percentage change in combined central bank assets using a custom formula. It displays the annual growth rate along with statistical bands showing when the growth is significantly above or below historical norms.
Formula Components
The indicator is based on a custom symbol combining multiple central bank balance sheets:
Federal Reserve balance sheet (FRED)
Bank of Japan assets converted to USD (FX_IDC*FRED)
European Central Bank assets converted to USD (FX_IDC*FRED)
Subtracting Fed reverse repo operations (FRED)
Subtracting Treasury General Account (FRED)
Calculations
Year-over-Year Percentage Change: Calculates the percentage change between the current value and the value from exactly one year ago (252 trading days).
Formula: ((current - year_ago) / year_ago) * 100
Statistical Measures:
Mean (Average): The 252-day simple moving average of the YoY percentage changes
Standard Deviation: The 252-day standard deviation of YoY percentage changes
Display Components
The indicator displays:
Main Line: YoY percentage change (green when positive, red when negative)
Zero Line: Reference line at 0% (gray dashed)
Mean Line: Average YoY change over the past 252 days (blue)
Standard Deviation Bands: Shows +/- 1 standard deviation from the mean
Upper band (+1 StdDev): Green, line with breaks style
Lower band (-1 StdDev): Red, line with breaks style
Interpretation
Values above zero indicate YoY growth in central bank assets
Values below zero indicate YoY contraction
Values above the +1 StdDev line indicate unusually strong growth
Values below the -1 StdDev line indicate unusually severe contraction
Crossing above/below the mean line can signal shifts in central bank policy trends
Usage
This indicator is useful for:
Monitoring global central bank liquidity trends
Identifying unusual periods of balance sheet expansion/contraction
Analyzing correlations between central bank activity and market performance
Anticipating potential market impacts from changes in central bank policy
The 252-day lookback period (approximately one trading year) provides a balance between statistical stability and responsiveness to changing trends in central bank behavior.
RSI-EMA-Crossing with Donchian-Stop-LossThe Donchian RSI Indicator is a visual tool that combines momentum and trend analysis to identify high-quality long opportunities based on RSI crossovers, price action, and Donchian channel dynamics.
How It Works
Momentum Signal: A bullish RSI crossover is detected when the RSI crosses above its moving average.
Trend Filter: A signal is only valid if the crossover occurs while the price is above its moving average – filtering out entries against the prevailing trend.
Signal Candle: The high of the crossover candle is stored.
Entry Trigger: A valid signal occurs when a later candle closes above that signal high.
Stop-Loss (Visual Only)
The lower band of the Donchian Channel acts as a visual reference for a dynamic stop-loss level.
Features
Customizable RSI, Donchian Channel, and moving average lengths
Selectable MA types: SMA, EMA, WMA, VWMA, HMA
Signal candle highlighted (yellow background)
Entry points labeled on the chart
Price MA and Donchian Channel plotted
Trend filter improves signal quality by confirming upward bias
Use Case
Designed for swing and position traders
Optimized for use on daily or 4H charts
Volume Peak RectangleOutlines the 'Latest' Highest Volume Bar. Typically High Volume bars create very good support and resistance levels. This is a draw off the Opening Range Breakout theory, with the idea that high volume candles create very good upper and lower levels of liquidity zones.
QuantumTrend SwiftEdgeQuantumTrend SwiftEdge - A Trend-Following Indicator for TradingView
Overview:
QuantumTrend SwiftEdge is a visually engaging and customizable trend-following indicator that combines the power of Supertrend, Keltner Channels, and a 100-period EMA to generate precise buy and sell signals. Designed to help traders identify trends and breakouts, this indicator offers a unique blend of technical tools with a modern gradient color effect, making it both functional and visually appealing.
What It Does:
This indicator identifies trend directions and potential entry/exit points:
- Supertrend determines the overall trend direction, showing a green line below the price during uptrends and a red line above the price during downtrends. The line only appears when the price is close to it, indicating an active trend.
- Keltner Channels highlight volatility and breakouts, with the upper and lower bands dynamically adjusting to market conditions.
- A 100-period EMA provides a longer-term trend perspective, helping to filter out noise.
- Buy and sell signals are generated when specific conditions align across these indicators, ensuring robust trade setups.
How It Works:
The indicator uses three components to generate signals:
1. **Supertrend**: Calculates trend direction using the Average True Range (ATR) and a multiplier. It switches between uptrend (green) and downtrend (red) based on price movements relative to the Supertrend line.
2. **Keltner Channels**: Consists of an EMA (default 20 periods) with upper and lower bands based on ATR. A breakout above the upper band signals potential buying opportunities, while a breakout below the lower band signals potential selling opportunities.
3. **100-period EMA**: Acts as a trend filter, ensuring signals align with the broader market direction.
**Buy Signal**:
- Price is above the 100-period EMA (bullish market).
- Price breaks above the Keltner Channel upper band (indicating a breakout).
- Supertrend switches to an uptrend (trend changes from down to up).
**Sell Signal**:
- Price is below the 100-period EMA (bearish market).
- Price breaks below the Keltner Channel lower band (indicating a breakout).
- Supertrend switches to a downtrend (trend changes from up to down).
Visual Features:
- **Gradient Colors**: Supertrend lines and Keltner Channels use a smooth gradient color transition between green (uptrend) and red (downtrend), reflecting the trend's strength. The gradient is based on a smoothed trend value, creating a visually appealing effect.
- **Keltner Channel Fill**: The area between the upper and lower Keltner Channels is filled with a transparent gradient, enhancing the trend visualization.
- **Dynamic Supertrend Visibility**: Supertrend lines only appear when the price is close to the line (within an ATR-based threshold), indicating an active trend.
How to Use:
1. Add the "QuantumTrend SwiftEdge" indicator to your chart in TradingView.
2. Customize the settings:
- **Signal Sensitivity (1=Low, 5=High)**: Default is 3. Lower values (e.g., 1) make signals less frequent by using wider parameters, while higher values (e.g., 5) make signals more frequent by tightening parameters.
- **Use Manual Settings**: If enabled, you can manually adjust all parameters (ATR Period, ATR Multiplier, Keltner Channel Length, Keltner Channel Multiplier, Keltner ATR Length, EMA Length) to fine-tune the indicator.
- **Change ATR Calculation Method**: Toggle between standard ATR calculation and a simple moving average of true range.
- **Show Buy/Sell Signals**: Toggle to show or hide buy (green "Buy" label) and sell (red "Sell" label) signals.
- **Highlighter On/Off**: Toggle to show or hide the gradient fill between the price and Supertrend line when the line is visible.
3. Interpret the signals:
- A green "Buy" label below the price indicates a potential buying opportunity.
- A red "Sell" label above the price indicates a potential selling opportunity.
- Use the Keltner Channel gradient fill and Supertrend lines to confirm the trend direction and strength.
Why This Combination?
- **Supertrend** provides a robust trend-following mechanism, ensuring signals align with the market direction.
- **Keltner Channels** add a volatility component, identifying breakouts that often precede significant price movements.
- **100-period EMA** filters out noise, ensuring signals are generated in the context of the broader trend.
Together, these indicators create a balanced approach: Supertrend and EMA confirm the trend, while Keltner Channels pinpoint actionable entry and exit points. The gradient visuals and dynamic visibility make it easier to focus on active trends.
Originality:
QuantumTrend SwiftEdge stands out with its unique features:
- Gradient color transitions for a modern, dynamic look.
- A filled gradient between Keltner Channels, visually emphasizing the trend.
- Supertrend lines that only appear when the price is close, reducing clutter and focusing on active trends.
- Flexible settings with both sensitivity-based and manual adjustments for maximum customization.
Default Settings:
The default sensitivity is set to 3, providing a balanced approach for most markets and timeframes (e.g., 5-minute charts for crypto like BTC/USD). This setting uses moderate parameters (ATR Period=10, ATR Multiplier=3.0, Keltner Channel Length=20, Keltner Channel Multiplier=1.5, Keltner ATR Length=10, EMA Length=100). Users can adjust the sensitivity or switch to manual settings for more control.
Important Notes:
- This indicator is a tool to assist in identifying trends and potential entry/exit points. It does not guarantee profits and should be used in conjunction with other analysis and risk management practices.
- The signals are based on historical price data and do not predict future performance. Always test the indicator on a demo account before using it in live trading.
- The gradient effect is purely visual and does not affect the signal logic.

Volume Cluster Support & ResistanceVolume Cluster Support & Resistance
This indicator identifies potential Support and Resistance (S/R) levels on the chart using Volume-Based Point of Control (POC) Clustering. It offers extensive customization for calculation parameters, display styles, and visualization options, including S/R zones, color gradients, and historical reaction markers.
How It Works
Volume Based S/R:
Scans the specified Clustering Lookback period for "High Volume Bars", defined as bars where volume exceeds the average volume (over Volume Lookback Period) multiplied by the High Volume Threshold Multiplier.
Calculates the Point of Control (POC) for each high-volume bar using hl2.
Clusters these high-volume bar POCs: POCs within a proximity defined by Cluster Proximity (ATR) (Average True Range multiplier) are grouped together.
Filters these clusters, requiring a Min Bars in Cluster to form a valid S/R zone.
(Image showing the indicator being used on the Bitcoin 5min chart)
The center price of valid clusters determines the S/R level. Clusters above the current price become potential Resistance, and those below become potential Support.
Calculates the offset based on the most recent bar included in the cluster.
Level Selection & Display:
The indicator identifies multiple potential S/R levels.
It then selects and displays the top Number of S/R Levels to Display support levels below the current price and resistance levels above the current price.
(Image showing the indicator on the GBP/USD 5min chart)
ATR Usage:
The Average True Range (ta.atr(14)) is used in two key areas:
Determining the proximity threshold for grouping POCs in the 'Volume Based' clustering (clusterProximityAtr).
Calculating the width of the S/R zones when 'Use Zone Visualization' is enabled (zoneAtrMultiplier).
Key Features & Components
Dual Calculation Methods: Choose between Pivot-based S/R or Volume-based POC clustering.
Volume Confirmation: Pivots require volume confirmation; Volume method directly analyzes high-volume bars.
POC Clustering: Groups high-volume areas to identify significant price zones.
Configurable Lookbacks: Adjust periods for volume averaging, pivot detection, and clustering analysis.
Dynamic S/R Display: Shows a configurable number of the most relevant S/R levels relative to the current price.
Optional Zone Visualization: Display levels as filled zones with configurable width (ATR-based), fill transparency, and border transparency. Includes a dashed center line.
Optional Historical Reactions: Mark past price interactions (lows bouncing off support zones, highs rejecting from resistance zones) directly on the chart (Warning: Can significantly impact performance).
Customizable Styling: Control line style (Solid, Dashed, Dotted), width, color (separate for Support & Resistance), and horizontal extension (None, Left, Right, Both).
Price Labels: Toggle visibility of price labels next to each S/R level/zone.
Visual Elements Explained
S/R Lines/Zones: Plotted lines or filled zones representing calculated support and resistance levels. Color-coded for Support (default green) and Resistance (default magenta).
Line/Zone Borders: Appearance controlled by Style settings (Style, Width, Extension). Can have a gradient color effect based on age if enabled.
Zone Fills: Semi-transparent fills for zones (if enabled), with configurable transparency. Fill color matches the border color (including gradient effect if enabled).
Zone Center Line: A thin, dashed line indicating the exact calculated S/R price within a zone.
Price Labels: Text labels showing the exact price of the S/R level.
Historical Reactions: Small dot markers appearing on historical bars where price potentially reacted to a displayed zone (only if Show Historical Reactions is enabled).
Configuration Options
Users can adjust the following parameters in the indicator settings:
Calculation Method: Select "Pivot Based" or "Volume Based".
Volume Zone Settings (Volume Based): Threshold multiplier, clustering lookback, cluster proximity (ATR), minimum bars per cluster.
Display Options: Toggle S/R visibility, price tags, set the number of levels to show.
Volume Settings: Volume lookback period, volume multiplier (for Pivot confirmation).
Style Settings: Line style, width, extension, support/resistance text and line colors, enable gradient coloring, set gradient start/end colors.
Zone Visualization: Enable/disable zones, set zone width (ATR multiplier), fill and border transparency, enable/disable historical reaction markers (performance warning).
Interpretation Notes
This indicator identifies potential areas of support and resistance based on historical price action and volume analysis. These levels are not guaranteed reversal points.
The 'Volume Based' method focuses on areas where significant trading activity occurred, while the 'Pivot Based' method focuses on price turning points confirmed by volume.
Use the displayed levels in conjunction with other technical analysis tools, price action patterns, and risk management strategies.
Be mindful of the performance impact when enabling Show Historical Reactions, especially on longer timeframes or with large lookback periods. The default setting is false for optimal performance.
The max_bars_back setting is optimized for performance; increasing it significantly may slow down chart loading.
Risk Disclaimer
Trading involves significant risk. This indicator is provided for analytical and educational purposes only and does not constitute financial advice or a trading recommendation. Past performance is not indicative of future results. Always use sound risk management practices and never trade with capital you cannot afford to lose.
MA cross X MAdiff<>atrfilter)📈 MA cross X MAdiff<>ATR filter
Smarter Trend Confirmation Using Adaptive Volatility Thresholds
🔍 What It Does
This indicator upgrades classic moving average crossovers by adding volatility awareness via ATR filtering. Instead of reacting to every small crossover, it waits for the distance between two moving averages to exceed a volatility-adjusted threshold, making signals more meaningful and less noisy.
⚙️ Core Logic
Calculates the difference between a Fast MA and a Slow MA.
Uses Average True Range (ATR) as a dynamic volatility filter.
Confirms trend only when MA difference exceeds:
diff > ATR × multiplier → Bullish
diff < -ATR × multiplier → Bearish
Otherwise: Neutral (gray zone)
The gray zone avoids false signals by detecting indecision or choppy markets.
🧠 Customizable Inputs
Choose any MA type independently for Fast and Slow:
SMA, EMA, WMA, VWMA, RMA, DEMA, TEMA, LSMA, Kijun
Control sensitivity via:
ATR Length
ATR Multiplier
✅ Why It Works
Reduces fake outs in ranging markets.
Adapts to volatility automatically.
Fully customizable for any asset or style.
Ideal for trend traders, momentum entries, or as a confluence layer.
Stock vs SPY % ChangeStock vs SPY % Change Indicator
This Pine Script indicator helps you compare a stock's price performance to the S&P 500 (using SPY ETF) over a user-defined period. It calculates the percentage price change of the stock and SPY, then displays the difference as a relative performance metric. A positive value (plotted in green) indicates the stock is outperforming SPY (e.g., dropping only 3% while SPY drops 10%), while a negative value (plotted in red) shows underperformance.
Features:
Adjustable lookback period (default: 20 days) to analyze recent performance.
Visual plot with green/red coloring for quick interpretation.
Zero line to clearly separate outperformance from underperformance.
How to Use:
Apply the indicator to your stock's chart.
Set the "Lookback Period" in the settings (e.g., 20 for ~1 month).
Check the plot:
Green (above 0) = Stock's % change is better than SPY's.
Red (below 0) = Stock's % change is worse than SPY's.
Use on daily or weekly charts for best results.
Ideal for identifying stocks that hold up better during market downturns or outperform in uptrends. Perfect for relative strength analysis and to spot accumulation.
Smoothed Heiken Ashi - Multi TimeframeThis script displays Smoothed Heiken Ashi candles from three user-selectable timeframes directly on the chart.
You can fully customize smoothing method, length (pre/post), and candle appearance (body, wick, border).
Ideal for visual trend confirmation across multiple timeframes.
Based on TAExt.heiken_ashi() from the TAExt library.
🔹 Non-repainting.
🔹 Works on all assets and timeframes.

External Signals Strategy Tester v5External Signals Strategy Tester v5 – User Guide (English)
1. Purpose
This Pine Script strategy is a universal back‑tester that lets you plug in any external buy/sell series (for example, another indicator, webhook feed, or higher‑time‑frame condition) and evaluate a rich set of money‑management rules around it – with a single click on/off workflow for every module.
2. Core Workflow
Feed signals
Buy Signal / Sell Signal inputs accept any series (price, boolean, output of request.security(), etc.).
A crossover above 0 is treated as “signal fired”.
Date filter
Start Date / End Date restricts the test window so you can exclude unwanted history.
Trade engine
Optional Long / Short enable toggles.
Choose whether opposite signals simply close the trade or reverse it (flip direction in one transaction).
Risk modules – all opt‑in via check‑boxes
Classic % block – fixed % Take‑Profit / Stop‑Loss / Break‑Even.
Fibonacci Bollinger Bands (FBB) module
Draws dynamic VWMA/HMA/SMA/EMA/DEMA/TEMA mid‑line with ATR‑scaled Fibonacci envelopes.
Every line can be used for stops, trailing, or multi‑target exits.
Separate LONG and SHORT sub‑modules
Each has its own SL plus three Take‑Profits (TP1‑TP3).
Per TP you set line, position‑percentage to close, and an optional trailing flag.
Executed TP/SLs deactivate themselves so they cannot refire.
Trailing behaviour
If Trail is checked, the selected line is re‑evaluated once per bar; the order is amended via strategy.exit().
3. Inputs Overview
Group Parameter Notes
Trade Settings Enable Long / Enable Short Master switches
Close on Opposite / Reverse Position How to react to a counter‑signal
Risk % Use TP / SL / BE + their % Traditional fixed‑distance management
Fibo Bands FIBO LEVELS ENABLE + visual style/length Turn indicator overlay on/off
FBB LONG SL / TP1‑TP3 Enable, Line, %, Trail Rules applied only while a long is open
FBB SHORT SL / TP1‑TP3 Enable, Line, %, Trail Rules applied only while a short is open
Line choices: Basis, 0.236, 0.382, 0.5, 0.618, 0.764, 1.0 – long rules use lower bands, short rules use upper bands automatically.
4. Algorithm Details
Position open
On the very first bar after entry, the script checks the direction and activates the corresponding LONG or SHORT module, deactivating the other.
Order management loop (every bar)
FBB Stop‑Loss: placed/updated at chosen band; if trailing, follows the new value.
TP1‑TP3: each active target updates its limit price to the selected band (or holds static if trailing is off).
The classic % block runs in parallel; its exits have priority because they call strategy.close_all().
Exit handling
When any strategy.exit() fires, the script reads exit_id and flips the *_Active flag so that order will not be recreated.
A Stop‑Loss (SL) also disables all remaining TPs for that leg.
5. Typical Use Cases
Scenario Suggested Setup
Scalping longs into VWAP‐reversion Enable LONG TP1 @ 0.382 (30 %), TP2 @ 0.618 (40 %), SL @ 0.236 + trailing
Fade shorts during news spikes Enable SHORT SL @ 1.0 (no trail) and SHORT TP1,2,3 on consecutive lowers with small size‑outs
Classic trend‑follow Use only classic % TP/SL block and disable FBB modules
6. Hints & Tips
Signal quality matters – this script manages exits, it does not generate entries.
Keep TV time zone in mind when picking start/end dates.
For portfolio‑style testing allocate smaller default_qty_value than 100 % or use strategy.percent_of_equity sizing.
You can combine FBB exits with fixed‑% ones for layered management.
7. Limitations / Safety
No pyramiding; the script holds max one position at a time.
All calculations are bar‑close; intra‑bar touches may differ from real‑time execution.

Higher Timeframe TrendMap [BigBeluga]🔵HTF TrendMap
A powerful visual overlay that brings higher timeframe market structure directly onto your intraday chart.
This tool maps directional bias, trend strength, and dynamic range boundaries from a user-selected HTF (like Daily or 4H), offering a real-time confluence layer for scalpers, day traders, and swing traders.
By plotting the evolving average (HL2), it acts as a volatility-weighted trend anchor, allowing you to align lower timeframe entries with higher timeframe intent.
Technical Overview:
At the close of each higher timeframe (HTF) candle, the indicator stores the high, low, and calculates the HL2 midpoint. These values are then referenced on the lower timeframe chart to plot trend direction and price boundaries.
🔵 KEY FEATURES
Maps the selected higher timeframe (HTF) (e.g., Daily) onto your current chart.
At the close of each HTF candle , it starts to calculate and store the highest, lowest, and average (HL2) price levels .
The average (HL2) value is treated as the HTF trend baseline —plotted in orange for uptrend , blue for downtrend .
Visual curve thickens and fades to show progress through the HTF period (stronger color = fresher data).
Horizontal dashed lines show HTF high and low levels that persist until the next period closes.
On every HTF close, two price labels are printed for the high and low levels.
Vertical separators visually mark the start of each HTF candle for easy structural recognition.
A real-time dashboard shows selected HTF, current trend direction (🢁/🢃), and updates dynamically.
🔵 HOW TO USE
Use the HTF average line as a bias filter —only long when the trend is up (orange), short when down (blue).
HTF high/low labels help identify key breakout or rejection zones .
Combine with intraday systems or reversal tools for multi-timeframe confluence setups .
Ideal for scalpers and swing traders who rely on HTF momentum shifts .
🔵 CONCLUSION
HTF TrendMap provides a clean, data-rich layer of higher timeframe context to any chart. With adaptive trend coloring, volatility mapping, and real-time data labeling, it enables traders to stay in sync with macro structure while executing on the micro.
Smoothed Heiken Ashi Trend OscillatorThe Smoothed Heiken Ashi Oscillator is a visually clean trend and momentum indicator based on reverse-calculated and optionally smoothed Heiken Ashi data.
It calculates the distance between the actual closing price and a reconstructed smoothed Heiken Ashi value to visualize trend direction and strength. Optional smoothing (SMA, EMA, HMA, VWMA, RMA) helps reduce noise.
Colored histogram bars indicate trend direction (bullish/bearish) and momentum (accelerating/decelerating). An optional info box shows live trend and momentum values.
Ideal for trend confirmation, reversal spotting, and gauging strength in combination with moving averages or price action setups.

Signal Reliability Based on Condition Count
The reliability of the buy/sell signals increases as more conditions are met. Here's a breakdown of the probabilities:
1. 1-3 Conditions Met: Lower Probability
o Signals that meet only 1-3 conditions tend to have lower reliability and are considered less probable. These signals may represent false positives or weaker market movements, and traders should approach them with caution.
2. 4 Conditions Met: More Reliable Signal
o When 4 conditions are met, the signal becomes more reliable. This indicates that multiple indicators or market patterns are aligning, increasing the likelihood of a valid buy/sell opportunity. While not foolproof, it's a stronger indication that the market may be moving in a particular direction.
3. 5-6 Conditions Met: Strong Signal
o A signal meeting 5-6 conditions is considered a strong signal. This indicates a well-confirmed move, with several technical indicators and market factors aligning to suggest a higher probability of success. These are the signals that traders often prioritize.
4. 7+ Conditions Met: Rare and High-Confidence Signal
o Signals that meet 7 or more conditions are rare and should be considered high-confidence signals. These represent a significant alignment of multiple factors, and while they are less frequent, they are highly reliable when they do occur. Traders can be more confident in acting on these signals, but they should still monitor market conditions for confirmation.
________________________________________
You can adjust the number of conditions as needed, but this breakdown should give a clear structure on how the signal strength correlates with the number of conditions met!
Z-Score Trend Monitor [EdgeTerminal]The Z-Score Trend Monitor measures how far the short-term moving average deviates from the long-term moving average using the spread difference of the two — in standardized units. It’s designed to detect overextension, momentum exhaustion, and potential mean-reversion points by converting the spread between two moving averages into a normalized Z-score and tracking its change and direction over time.
The idea behind this is to catch the changes in the direction of a trend earlier than the usual and lagging moving average lines, allowing you to react faster.
The math behind the indicator itself is very simple. We take the simple moving average of the spread between a long term and short term moving average, and divide it by the difference between the spread and spread mean.
This results in a relatively accurate and early acting trend detector that can easily identify overbought and oversold levels in any timeframe. From our own testing, we recommend using this indicator as a trend confirmation tool.
How to Use It:
Keep an eye on the Z-Score or the blue line. When it goes over 2, it indicates an overbought or near top level, and when it goes below -2, it indicates an oversold or near bottom.
When Z-Score returns to zero or grey line, it suggests mean reversion is in progress.
You can also change the Z-Score criteria from 2 and -2 in the settings to any number you’d like for tighter or wider levels.
For scalping and fast trading setups, we recommend shorter SMAs, such as 5 and 20, and for longer trading setups such as swing trades, we recommend 20 and 100.
Settings:
Short SMA: Lookback period of short term simple moving average for the lower side of the SMA spread.
Short Term Weight: Additional weight or multiplier to suppress the short term SMA calculation. This is used to refine the SMA calculation for more granular and edge cases when needed, usually left at 1, meaning it will take the entire given value in the short SMA field.
Long SMA: Lookback period of long term simple moving average for the upper side of the SMA spread.
Long Term Weight: Additional weight or multiplier to suppress the long term SMA calculation. This is used to refine the long SMA calculation for more granular and edge cases when needed, usually left at 1, meaning it will take the entire given value in the long SMA field.
Z-Score Threshold: The threshold for upper (oversold) and lower (overbought) levels. This can also be set individually from the style page.
Z-Score Lookback Window: The lookback period to calculate spread mean and spread standard deviation
