Tick Profile HeatmapThis is a market internal TICK heatmap with the intent of displaying areas of price associated to stronger reactions with NYSE TICK (by default).
This code is based off of a variation of a Volume Profile coded originally by colejustice who originally used code from LuxAlgo . The full-width volume bars that colejustice setup were replaced with full-width bars representative of TICK breaking +/- $500, the current cumulative value representing the "heat" is comprised of hlc3 by default but that can be changed. In a future update I may add additional logic here to capture highs and lows in the heatmap specifically, and perhaps additional colors.
As with other traditional profiling studies, this indicators purpose is to visualize correspondence to specific price levels, allowing rapid assessment where the most TICK activity is occurring, and where it hasn't been. This information may provide areas of support and resistance and regions where price may move quickly repeatedly.
All of the same input guidance that colejustice provided is the same for those pre-existing inputs:
Inputs are set up such that you can customize the lookback period, number of rows, and width of rows for most major timeframes individually. Timeframes between those available will use the next lower timeframe settings (e.g., 2m chart will use the 1m settings.)
Zero usage of volume is present in this indicator, only TICK data so please don't confuse it with volume studies.

MACD TrueLevel StrategyThis strategy uses the MACD indicator to determine buy and sell signals. In addition, the strategy employs the use of "TrueLevel Bands," which are essentially envelope bands that are calculated based on the linear regression and standard deviation of the price data over various lengths.
The TrueLevel Bands are calculated for 14 different lengths and are plotted on the chart as lines. The bands are filled with a specified color to make them more visible. The highest upper band and lowest lower band values are stored in variables for easy access.
The user can input the lengths for the TrueLevel Bands and adjust the multiplier for the standard deviation. They can also select the bands they want to use for entry and exit, and enable long and short positions.
The entry conditions for a long position are either a crossover of the MACD line over the signal line or a crossover of the price over the selected entry lower band. The entry conditions for a short position are either a crossunder of the MACD line under the signal line or a crossunder of the price under the selected exit upper band.
The exit conditions for both long and short positions are not specified in the code and are left to the user to define.
Overall, the strategy aims to capture trends by entering long or short positions based on the MACD and TrueLevel Bands, and exiting those positions when the trend reverses.
RSI TrueLevel StrategyThis strategy is a momentum-based strategy that uses the Relative Strength Index (RSI) indicator and a TrueLevel envelope to generate trade signals.
The strategy uses user-defined input parameters to calculate TrueLevel envelopes for 14 different lengths. The TrueLevel envelope is a volatility-based technical indicator that consists of upper and lower bands. The upper band is calculated by adding a multiple of the standard deviation to a linear regression line of the price data, while the lower band is calculated by subtracting a multiple of the standard deviation from the same regression line.
The strategy generates long signals when the RSI crosses above the oversold level or when the price crosses above the selected lower band of the TrueLevel envelope. It generates short signals when the RSI crosses below the overbought level or when the price crosses below the selected upper band of the TrueLevel envelope.
The strategy allows for long and short trades and sets the trade size as a percentage of the account equity. The colors of the bands and fills are also customizable through user-defined input parameters.
In this strategy, the 12th TrueLevel band was chosen due to its ability to capture significant price movements while still providing a reasonable level of noise reduction. The strategy utilizes a total of 14 TrueLevel bands, each with varying lengths. The 12th band, with a length of 2646, strikes a balance between sensitivity to market changes and reducing false signals, making it a suitable choice for this strategy.
RSI Parameters:
In this strategy, the RSI overbought and oversold levels are set at 65 and 40, respectively. These values were chosen to filter out more noise in the market and focus on stronger trends. Traditional RSI overbought and oversold levels are set at 70 and 30, respectively. By raising the oversold level and lowering the overbought level, the strategy aims to identify more significant trend reversals and potential trade opportunities.
Of course, the parameters can be adjusted to suit individual preferences.
[TT] Sectors Dist % From MA- The script shows the distance in percentages from the 200 MA (or any other MA period) , for the 11 SP500 sectors.
- It works based on the current time frames.
Could be useful when working with mean reversion strategies to detect extremes zones and overbought/oversold conditions in the given sectors compared others.
BUY/SELL + ADVANCE DECLINEThis script is a custom trading view indicator that helps to identify potential buy and sell signals based on the RSI (Relative Strength Index) and SMA (Simple Moving Average) indicators. The script also identifies potential reversals using a combination of RSI and price action. It plots buy, sell, and reversal signals on the chart along with an SMA line. Additionally, it provides alerts based on the buy, sell, and reversal conditions.
Changes made to the original script:
Fixed the undeclared identifier 'c' error by calculating the difference between the current closing price and the previous closing price: c = close - close .
Added an "ADD Value Floating Label" to the chart. The label shows the difference between the current and previous closing prices (ADD value) along with a "Bullish" or "Bearish" indicator based on the value of 'c'. The label is positioned at the top right of the visible chart area and remains static.
Here's a summary of the major components of the script:
Input settings: Define the input parameters for RSI and SMA.
Calculation of RSI and SMA: Compute the RSI and SMA values based on the input parameters.
Color definitions: Define colors for different conditions and levels.
Condition definitions: Define various conditions for buy, sell, reversal, and other criteria.
Buy and sell conditions: Determine buy and sell signals based on RSI, SMA, and price action.
Reversal conditions: Identify potential reversals using RSI and price action.
Plot signals: Display buy, sell, and reversal signals on the chart.
Bar colors: Color the bars based on the identified signals.
Plot SMA: Display the SMA line on the chart.
Alert conditions: Set up alerts for buy, sell, and reversal conditions.
ADD Value Floating Label: Add a label to the chart showing the ADD value and a "Bullish" or "Bearish" indicator.

52 Week High/Low FibonacciThe primary purpose of this indicator is to calculate and plot the 52-week high and low prices along with the Fibonacci retracement levels on the price chart. Fibonacci levels are commonly used in trading to identify potential support, resistance, and price reversal points.
First, the script initializes the Fibonacci levels and their corresponding colors, which will be used to plot the levels on the chart. Next, it calculates the 52-week high and low prices by finding the highest and lowest prices over the last 252 trading days, approximately equivalent to one year. Then, it identifies the overall trend direction by comparing the number of bars since the highest high and the lowest low. If the highest high is more recent, the trend is considered downwards; if the lowest low is more recent, the trend is upwards.
The script then plots the Fibonacci retracement levels on the chart, using horizontal lines at the respective price levels. It also creates labels for each level, displaying the percentage and the price value. Additionally, it draws a line connecting the 52-week high and low prices, providing a visual representation of the price range during the 52-week period.
Pros of this indicator include:
-Automatic calculation and plotting of Fibonacci levels, saving time for traders
-Clear trend identification based on 52-week high and low prices
-Visually appealing and easy-to-read chart representation with color-coded levels
-Provides insight into potential price reversal areas based on widely used Fibonacci levels
Cons of this indicator include:
-Only works on daily timeframes, limiting its usefulness for intraday and weekly traders
-Assumes that the trend will continue in the same direction, which may not always be accurate in real-world markets
-Does not provide explicit buy or sell signals, leaving the trading decision-making process up to the trader
-Solely relies on Fibonacci levels, which may not always be accurate; it is recommended to use other technical indicators or strategies alongside this indicator for a comprehensive trading approach
In conclusion, the '52 Week High Low Fibonacci' indicator is a valuable tool for traders interested in using Fibonacci levels for identifying potential price reversal points. By automatically calculating and plotting these levels based on 52-week high and low prices, the indicator provides a clear, color-coded visual aid, which can be especially helpful for traders who base their strategies on these levels.
However, it's worth noting that this indicator is limited to daily timeframes and doesn't provide explicit buy or sell signals, requiring traders to incorporate their own analysis and judgement in their decision-making process. The indicator also operates on the assumption of trend continuation, which may not always hold true.
While it's a beneficial tool, relying solely on this indicator for trading decisions may not be advisable. It's best used in conjunction with other indicators and trading strategies, providing a more balanced and comprehensive approach to trading in the financial markets. As always, risk management should be a key part of any trading strategy.

Top12/Bottom88 Weighted Ratio I multiplied the price of each of the top QQQ holdings by their percentage weight, and the bottom 88 holdings for a total of 100. I divide the top 12 weighted price by the bottom 88 weighted price. So I can see when money is flowing in and out of the megacaps. It needs to be updated every quarter, which I may need to do now....
Golden ZoneIntroducing the "Golden Zone" indicator, a powerful tool that simplifies the Fibonacci indicator by creating a clear Golden Zone to identify potential future price movements. The Golden Zone is a supply or demand zone that corresponds to the 61.8% and 50% Fibonacci retracement levels. These levels are important because they often mark zones where the price reacts, making it an essential area for traders to watch.
The script plots the Fibonacci levels in the background, enabling traders to identify potential support and resistance levels quickly. The Golden Zone is highlighted with a yellow filled area, making it easy to spot on the chart. Traders use this zone to identify areas where the stock price may react, either bouncing off the support level or encountering resistance at the resistance level.
For example, if a stock price is moving up and reaches the Golden Zone, a trader may look for signs of resistance and consider selling the stock if the price begins to move back down. Conversely, if a stock price is moving down and reaches the Golden Zone, a trader may look for signs of support and consider buying the stock if the price begins to move back up.
The "Golden Zone" indicator is highly versatile and can be used in all markets, whether you are a swing trader or a day trader. It can be combined with other strategies, such as an EMA crossover strategy or price action, or as an area of confluence.
In summary, the "Golden Zone" indicator is a must-have tool for traders looking to identify potential price movements and locate key support and resistance levels. Its user-friendly inputs and clear display make it a valuable addition to any trading arsenal.
So, the "Golden Zone" indicator is like a magic tool that helps people who trade in the stock market find valuable things to buy or sell. And with its ability to identify key support and resistance levels, it can help traders make better-informed decisions when buying or selling stocks.
I hope you like it!
Tape (Time and Sales)OVERVIEW
This indicator is a synthesized "Tape" (aka. Time and Sales) from real time market data. It's specifically designed to be performant, expediting trading insights and decisions.
The table contains color-coded price action, volume size, and a timestamp data for each chart update. Because chart updates are independent of exchange orders, 1 chart update may combine more than 1 exchange and/or order. Even so, you're able to see very small and fast order flow changes, made possible by measuring real time volume differentials, and correlating them with price action.
Real time volume differentials are required for this indicator to be most useful. This is not ideal for historical analysis or TradingViews Replay feature.
INPUTS
You can can configure:
Table Position and Text Size
The Timestamp (visibility, format, timezone)
The number of lines to print
Volume Parameters (minimum size, large sizes, decimal precision)
Highlighting and Enlarging large sized prints

Zero Lag Moving Average with Gaussian weightsIntroduction
The Zero Lag Moving Average (ZLMA) is a powerful technical indicator that aims to eliminate the lag inherent in traditional moving averages. This post provides a comprehensive exploration of the ZLMA with Gaussian Weights (GWMA) indicator, discussing the concepts, the calculations, and its application in trading.
Concepts
Zero Lag Moving Average (ZLMA): A ZLMA is an advanced moving average designed to reduce the lag in price movements associated with conventional moving averages. This reduction in lag enables traders to make more informed decisions based on the most recent price data.
Gaussian Weights: Gaussian weights are derived from the Gaussian function, which is a mathematical function used to calculate probabilities in a normal distribution. The Gaussian function is smooth, symmetric, and has a bell-shaped curve. In this context, Gaussian weights are used to calculate the weighted average of a series of data points.
Why Gaussian Weights are Beneficial
Gaussian Weights offer several advantages in comparison to traditional moving averages. One of the main reasons for using Gaussian Weights is to address the issue of lag, which is commonly associated with simple and exponential moving averages. By reducing lag, traders can make more informed decisions based on up-to-date information.
Another advantage of Gaussian Weights is their mathematical foundation, which is rooted in the Gaussian function. This function describes the normal distribution in probability theory and statistics. The smooth and symmetric bell-shaped curve of Gaussian Weights enables a more refined approach to handling data points, resulting in a more responsive and accurate moving average.
While exponential moving averages (EMAs) also assign more weight to recent data points, they can still exhibit some lag. Gaussian Weights, on the other hand, offer a smoother and more adaptive solution to different market conditions. By adjusting the smoothing period, traders can tailor the Gaussian Weights to their specific needs, making them a versatile tool for various trading strategies.
In summary, Gaussian Weights provide a valuable alternative to traditional moving averages due to their ability to reduce lag, their strong mathematical foundation, and their adaptability to different market conditions. These benefits make Gaussian Weights a worthwhile consideration for traders looking to enhance their trading strategies.
Calculations
The ZLMA with GWMA consists of two main calculations:
Gaussian Weight Calculation: The Gaussian weight for a given 'k' and 'smooth_per' is calculated using the standard deviation (sigma) and the exponent part of the Gaussian function.
Zero-Lag GWMA Calculation: The zero-lag GWMA is calculated using a source buffer, a Gaussian weighted moving average (gwma1), and an output array. The source buffer stores the input data, the gwma1 array stores the first Gaussian weighted moving average, and the output array stores the final zero-lag moving average.
Application in Trading
The ZLMA with GWMA indicator can be used to identify trends and potential entry/exit points in trading:
Trend Identification: When the ZLMA is above the price, it indicates a bearish trend, and when it is below the price, it indicates a bullish trend.
Entry/Exit Points: Traders can use crossovers between the ZLMA and price to identify potential entry and exit points. A long position could be taken when the price crosses above the ZLMA, and a short position could be taken when the price crosses below the ZLMA.
Conclusion
The Zero Lag Moving Average with Gaussian Weights is a powerful and versatile indicator that can be used in various trading strategies. By minimizing the lag associated with traditional moving averages, the ZLMA with GWMA provides traders with more accurate and timely information about price trends and potential trade opportunities.
Volume Weighted Pivot Point Moving Averages VPPMAAs traders and investors, we are constantly on the lookout for tools that can assist us in making informed decisions. While there are countless technical analysis tools available, sometimes even small, simple scripts can provide valuable insights. In this post, we will explore the Volume-Weighted Pivot Point Moving Average (PPMA) Indicator – a modest yet helpful script that could potentially enhance your trading experience.

The Concept Behind PPMA Indicator
The Volume-Weighted Pivot Point Moving Average (PPMA) Indicator is a straightforward technical analysis tool that aims to help traders identify potential market turning points and trends. It does this by calculating a moving average based on price and volume data while considering pivot highs and pivot lows. The PPMA Indicator is designed to be more responsive than traditional moving averages by incorporating volume into its calculations.
Understanding the Script
The script is compatible with version 5 of the TradingView Pine Script language, and it features an overlay setting, allowing the indicator to be plotted directly onto the price chart. The customizable pivot left input enables traders to adjust the sensitivity of the pivot points.
The script first identifies pivot points, which are areas where the price changes direction. It then calculates the volume-weighted average price (VWAP) of each trading period between the pivot points. Finally, it plots the PPMA line on the chart, providing a visual representation of the volume-weighted average prices.
Using the PPMA Indicator
To use the PPMA Indicator, simply add the script to your TradingView chart. The indicator will plot the PPMA line directly onto the price chart. You can adjust the pivot left input to modify the sensitivity of the pivot points, depending on your preferred trading style.
When the PPMA line is trending upward, it may indicate a potential bullish trend. Conversely, a downward-trending PPMA line could suggest a bearish trend. The PPMA Indicator can be used in conjunction with other technical analysis tools to confirm potential trend changes and to establish entry or exit points for trades.
Conclusion
While the Volume-Weighted Pivot Point Moving Average (PPMA) Indicator may not be a game-changer, it is a modest yet helpful tool for traders looking to enhance their technical analysis. By incorporating volume into its calculations, the PPMA Indicator aims to provide more responsive signals compared to traditional moving averages. As with any trading tool, it is crucial to conduct your own analysis and combine multiple indicators before making any trading decisions.
Kalman RSIThis is a simplified version of Kalman RSI by onegreencandle.
Simplifications:
It shows the indicator for a single configurable length with a default of 14.
It does not color by region.
It allows selecting the source, with a default of close . The version by onegreencandle uses ohlc4 instead. Note that both versions also use high and low .
It uses the newer version (5) of Pine Script.
It sets bands at 85 and 15.
Aggregate Medians [wbburgin]This indicator recursively finds the average of all high/low medians under your chosen length. This can be very, very helpful for analyzing trends where a moving average or a normal median would produce a bunch of false signals.
Settings:
The "Length" setting is the maximum median that you want the algorithm to add into the sum. The "Start at Period" setting is the the minimum median that you want the algorithm to take into account. Starting at a higher period means that the faster, more sensitive medians of lower lengths are not included, and will smooth out your curve.
I haven't seen many recursive algorithms on TradingView so feel free to use this script as inspiration for any of your ideas. In theory, you can essentially replace the median function with any other function - a moving average, a supertrend, or anything else.
The start must be lower than the length, because this is a sum from the start to the length of all medians in between.
EMA + ATR Support and Resistance + Take Profit SignalThe 'EMA+ ATR Support Resistance Take Profit signal' indicator is a technical analysis tool designed to help traders identify potential support and resistance levels, using the Exponential Moving Average (EMA) and the Average True Range (ATR) indicators. This indicator not only tracks the EMA and ATR but also plots these levels as support and resistance lines, providing useful insights into potential buy and sell points.
The indicator allows you to set the lengths for both the EMA and ATR, with default values set to 20 and 14, respectively. Moreover, you can specify the multiplier for the ATR in the Support/Resistance (S/R) length setting, which defaults to 2. The line width for the plotted lines can also be adjusted according to your preference.
The EMA line in center is invisible by default but you can change that by going to the setting of the indicator. The support and resistance lines are plotted in green and red, respectively. When the price hits the support or resistance levels, the indicator provides a visual signal with a cross shape below or above the respective bars, in lime and red, respectively. If you do not need the take profit signals you can disable them in the setting.
How to Use:
1. Define the EMA and ATR lengths according to your trading strategy. Higher lengths will provide smoother lines but may also lag the current price action.
2. Set the S/R length to determine the distance of the support and resistance lines from the EMA line. Higher values will place these lines further away from the EMA.
3. Monitor the chart for instances when the price hits the support or resistance levels. This is indicated by a cross shape below (for support hit) or above (for resistance hit) the price bar. These points may be considered as potential take profit points or entry/exit points, depending on your strategy.
4. Use the indicator in conjunction with other tools and indicators to confirm signals and reduce the risk of false signals. So the assumption is you enter a trade using your other indicators but you can rely on this indicator to remind you to take profit if you are long by a red cross of the resistance line and if you are short reminds you by a green cross on the support line.
Disclaimer: This indicator should not be used as the sole determinant for any investment decision. Always conduct thorough research and consider multiple factors before trading.
SPY 4 Hour Swing TraderThe purpose of this script is to spot 4 hour pivots that indicate ~30 trading day swings. As VIX starts to drop options trading will get more boring and as we get back on the bull and can benefit from swing trading strategy. Swing trading doesn't make a whole lot of sense when VIX is above 28. Seems to get best results on 4 hour chart for this one. This indicator spots a go long opportunity when the 5 ema crosses the 13 ema on the 4 hour along with the RSI > 50 and the ADX > 20 and Stoichastic values (smoothed line < 80 or line < 90) and close > last candle close and the True Range < 6. It also spots uses a couple different means to determine when to exit the trade. Sell condition is primarily when the 13 ema crosses the 5 ema and the MACD line crosses below the signal line and the smoothed Stoichastic appears oversold (greater than 60) and slop of RSI < -.2. Stop Losses and Take Profits are configurable in Inputs along with ability to include short trades plus other MACD and Stoichastic settings. If a stop loss is encountered the trade will close. Also once twice the expected move is encountered partial profits will taken and stop losses and take profits will be re-established based on most recent close. Also a VIX above 28 will trigger any open positions to close. If trying to use this for something other than SPXL it is best to update stop losses and take profit percentages and check backtest results to ensure proper levels have been selected and the script gives satisfactory results.
SPY 1 Hour Swing TraderThe purpose of this script is to spot 1 hour pivots that indicate ~5 to 6 trading day swings. Results indicate that swings are held approximately 5 to 6 trading days on average, over the last 6 years. This indicator spots a go long opportunity when the 5 ema crosses the 13 ema on the 1 hour along with the RSI > 50. It also spots uses a couple different means to determine when to exit the trade. Sell condition is primarily when the 13 ema crosses the 5 ema and the MACD line crosses below the signal line and the smoothed Stoichastic appears oversold (greater than 60). Stop Losses and Take Profits are configurable in Inputs along with ability to include short trades plus other MACD and Stoichastic settings. If a stop loss is encountered the trade will close. Also once twice the expected move is encountered partial profits will taken and stop losses and take profits will be re-established based on most recent close. Once long trades are exited, short trades will be initiated if recent conditions appeared oversold and input option for short trading is enabled. If trying to use this for something other than SPXL it is best to update stop losses and take profit percentages and check backtest results to ensure proper levels have been selected and the script gives satisfactory results.
Put to Call Ratio CorrelationHello!
Excited to share this with the community!
This is actually a very simple indicator but actually usurpingly helpful, especially for those who trade indices such as SPX, IWM, QQQ, etc.
Before I get into the indicator itself, let me explain to you its development.
I have been interested in the use of option data to detect sentiment and potential reversals in the market. However, I found option data on its own is full of noise. Its very difficult if not impossible for a trader to make their own subjective assessment about how option data is reflecting market sentiment.
Generally speaking, put to call ratios generally range between 0.8 to 1.1 on average. Unless there is a dramatic pump in calls or puts causing an aggressive spike up to over this range, or fall below this range, its really difficult to make the subjective assessment about what is happening.
So what I thought about trying to do was, instead of looking directly at put to call ratio, why not see what happens when you perform a correlation analysis of the PTC ratio to the underlying stock.
So I tried this in pinescript, pulling for Tradingview's ticker PCC (Total Equity Put to Call Ratio) and using the ta.correlation function against whichever ticker I was looking at.
I played around with this idea a bit, pulled the data into excel and from this I found something interesting. When there is a very significant negative or positive correlation between PTC ratio and price movement, we see a reversal impending. In fact, a significant negative or positive correlation (defined as a R value of 0.8 or higher or -0.8 or lower) corresponded to a stock reversal about 92% of the time when data was pulled on a 5 minute timeframe on SPY.
But wait, what is a correlation?
If you are not already familiar, a correlation is simply a statistical relationship. It is defined with a Pearson R correlation value which ranges from 0 (no correlation) to 1 (significant positive correlation) and 0 to -1 (significant negative correlation).
So what does positive vs negative mean?
A significant positive correlation means the correlation is moving the same as the underlying. In the case of this indicator, if there is a significant positive correlation could mean the stock price is climbing at the same time as the PTC ratio.
Inversely, it could mean the stock price is falling as well as the PTC ratio.
A significant negative correlation means the correlation is moving in the opposite direction. So in this case, if the stock price is climbing and the PTC ratio is falling proportionately, we would see a significant negative correlation.
So how does this work in real life?
To answer this, let's get into the actual indicator!
In the image above, you will see the arrow pointing to an area of significant POSITIVE correlation.
The indicator will paint the bars on the actual chart purple (customizable of course) to signify this is an area of significant correlation.
So, in the above example this means that the PTC ratio is increase proportionately to the increase in the stock price in the SAME direction (Puts are going up proportionately to the stock price). Thus, we can make the assumption that the underlying sentiment is overwhelmingly BEARISH. Why? Because option trading activity is significantly proportionate to stock movement, meaning that there is consensus among the options being traded and the movement of the market itself.
And in the above example we will see, the stock does indeed end up selling:
In this case, IWM fell roughly 1 point from where there was bearish consensus in the market.
Let's use this same trading day and same example to show the inverse:
You will see a little bit later, a significant NEGATIVE correlation developed.
In this case identified, the stock wise RISING and the PTC ratio was FALLING.
This means that Puts were not being bought up as much as calls and the sentiment had shifted to bullish .
And from that point, IWM ended up going up an additional 0.75 points from where there was a significant INVERSE correlation.
So you can see that it is helpful for identifying reversals. But what is also can be used for is identifying areas of LOW conviction. Meaning, areas where there really is no relationship between option activity and stock movement. Let's take spy on the 1 hour timeframe for this example:
You can see in the above example there really is no consensus in the option trading activity with the overarching sentiment. The price action is choppy and so too is option trading activity. Option traders are not pushing too far in one direction or the other. We can also see the lack of conviction in the option trading activity by looking at the correlation SMA (the white line).
When a ticker is experiencing volatile and good movement up and down, the SMA will generally trade to the top of the correlation range (roughly + 1.0) and then make a move down to the bottom (roughly - 1.0), see the example below:
When the SMA is not moving much and accumulating around the centerline, it generally means a lot of indecision.
Additional Indicator Information:
As I have said, the indicator is very simple. It pulls the data from the ticker PCC and runs a correlation assessment against whichever ticker you are on.
PCC pulls averaged data from all equities within the market and is not limited to a single equity. As such, its helpful to use this with indices such as SPY, IWM and QQQ, but I have had success with using it on individual tickers such as NVDA and AMD.
The correlation length is defaulted to 14. You can modify it if you wish, but I do recommend leaving it at this as the default and the testing I have done with this have all been on the 14 correlation length.
You can chose to smooth the SMA over whichever length of period you wish as well.
When the indicator is approaching a significant negative or positive relationship, you will see the indicator flash red in the upper or lower band to signify the relationship. As well, the chart will change the bar colour to purple:
Everything else is pretty straight forward.
Let me know your questions/comments or suggestions around the indicator and its applications.
As always, no indicator is meant to provide a single, reliable strategy to your trading regimen and no indicator or group of indicators should be relied on solely. Be sure to do your own analysis and assessments of the stock prior to taking any trades.
Safe trades everyone!
MACD/RSI - editedThis strategy checks MACDcrossover and RSI crossover. When MACD crosses up or down the signal line, it checks if RSI is crossing back OverSold or OverBought lines, respectively, over the past few candles. The period can be changed by the parameter "RSI lookback".
The strategy seems to work better for reversal—still a work in progress.
VIX Futures Spread StrategyThis script was an exercise in learning Pinescript and exploring the futures curve of the VIX in relation to SPY. Was deleted by TV, trying to republish it now with updated parameters for slippage and commission and a more detailed description.
"VIX Futures Spread Strategy" is a trading strategy that capitalizes on the spread between the 3-month VIX futures (VIX3M) and the spot VIX index. This strategy is based on the idea that the VIX futures spread can serve as a contrarian indicator of market sentiment, with extreme negative spreads potentially signaling oversold conditions and opportunities for long positions.
Ordinarily the VIX curve is in contango as futures contracts are priced at a premium to the current spot price and are used to hedge future uncertainty in the market. When the spot price of VIX spikes the curve can invert and enter backwardation; this strategy detects this condition and uses it as a trigger to open a long position in SPY. The spread going negative tends to correlate with excessive fear and uncertainty in the short term while expecting lower volatility in the long term, in this case 3 months out.
The strategy is designed to enter a long position when the VIX futures spread is negative and to exit the position when the spread rises above 3 -- when the curve is in contango again. The strategy employs a pyramiding approach, allowing up to 10 additional orders to be placed while the entry condition is met, with each order consisting of 10 contracts. This approach aims to maximize potential profits during periods of favorable market conditions.
In this strategy, the VIX futures spread is calculated as the difference between the 3-month VIX futures (VIX3M) and the spot VIX index. The spread is plotted as a histogram on the chart, with the zero line representing no spread, and horizontal lines at 0 and 3 indicating the entry and exit thresholds, respectively.
The strategy's backtesting settings use an initial capital of HKEX:10 ,000, a commission of 0.5% per trade, and a maximum of 10 pyramiding orders, and a slippage of 2 ticks.

Put-Call Bias IndicatorThe Put-Call Bias Indicator provides a visual representation of the relative bias towards put options using CBOE data. This script calculates the Put/All ratio, displaying the difference as compared to an even 50% ratio as columns on the chart. A positive value indicates a higher proportion of puts being bought compared to the total number of options contracts.
The indicator uses weekly CBOE data to determine the Put/Call ratio, making it suitable for analyzing longer-term trends in options trading sentiment. The gray columns represent the bias towards puts, with the green horizontal line at 0 acting as a reference point to quickly identify the prevailing bias.
In addition to providing an overview of market sentiment, this indicator can also be used as a contrarian indicator. A high Put/All ratio may suggest that the market is overly bearish, potentially signaling a bullish reversal, while a low ratio may indicate an overly bullish market, potentially pointing to a bearish reversal. Please note that this indicator should be used in conjunction with other technical analysis tools and indicators for a comprehensive understanding of the market.

Basic Polychromatic Momentum IndicatorBasic Polychromatic Momentum Indicator with alerts
PMI involves taking the difference between the current price and the price n periods ago, and then subtracting from it the difference between the current price and the price n periods ago, divided by n. This gives a smoothed version of the momentum indicator.
The user can also specify a smoothing factor using the "smoothing" input, which applies a simple moving average to the PMI. The resulting smoothed PMI is plotted on the chart in blue, with a dotted gray line at the zero level.
Polychromatic Momentum IndicatorPolychromatic Momentum is a generalized Momentum study considering a number of Momentum values controlled by the length input. The greatest weight is given to the most recent Momentum value, while the precedent values are given lesser weight. Each Momentum value is assigned weight equal to inverse square root of Momentum distance (number of bars prior to the current bar). Then the sum of the weighted Momentum values is divided by the sum of the square roots.
