[blackcat] L2 Six Round Positioning█ OVERVIEW
The script is an indicator designed to plot the direction (up, down, no change) of several moving averages (MA) on a separate chart, without overlaying the price data. It calculates Simple Moving Averages (SMA) for 3, 5, 8, 34, 60, 120, and 250 periods and uses conditional logic to determine the color and position of the plotted columns based on whether each MA is increasing, decreasing, or unchanged.
█ LOGICAL FRAMEWORK
The script is structured into three main sections:
1 — Input Parameters: None explicitly defined, but the script uses default settings for the indicator function.
2 — Calculations: Computes Simple Moving Averages (SMA) for seven different periods.
3 — Plotting: Uses conditional logic to plot columns representing the direction of each MA, with positions and colors indicating whether the MA is increasing, decreasing, or unchanged.
The flow of data is straightforward: the script calculates the SMAs, determines their direction, sets the appropriate color, and then plots the columns.
█ CUSTOM FUNCTIONS
• No custom functions are defined in this script. All calculations and plotting are done using built-in Pine Script functions such as ta.sma for SMA calculation and plot for plotting.
█ KEY POINTS AND TECHNIQUES
• Use of ta.sma: The script effectively uses the ta.sma function to calculate Simple Moving Averages for different periods.
• Conditional Logic: The script employs conditional logic (ternary operators) to determine the color and position of the plotted columns based on the direction of each MA.
• Plotting with plot: The plot function is used extensively to display the direction of each MA with different colors and positions.
• Color Transparency: The use of color.new with transparency (e.g., color.new(color.green, 50)) allows for visually distinct colors that are not too overpowering.
█ EXTENDED KNOWLEDGE AND APPLICATIONS
• Modifications: The script could be enhanced by adding input parameters to allow users to customize the periods of the moving averages, colors, and transparency levels.
• Extensions: Similar techniques could be applied to other types of moving averages (e.g., EMA, WMA) or to other technical indicators.
• Strategy Development: This indicator could serve as a component in a larger trading strategy by providing insights into the overall trend direction across multiple timeframes.
• Related Concepts: Understanding of moving averages, conditional logic, and plotting techniques in Pine Script would be beneficial for further development and customization of this script.

Austin MTF EMA Entry PointsAustin MTF EMA Entry Points
Overview
The Austin MTF EMA Entry Points is a custom TradingView indicator designed to assist traders in identifying high-probability entry points by combining multiple time frame (MTF) analysis. It leverages exponential moving averages (EMAs) from the daily, 1-hour, and 15-minute charts to generate buy and sell signals that align with the overall trend.
This indicator is ideal for traders who:
Want to trade in the direction of the broader daily trend.
Seek precise entry points on lower time frames (1H and 15M).
Prefer using EMAs as their main trend-following tool.
How It Works
Daily Trend Filter:
The indicator calculates the 50 EMA on the daily chart.
The daily EMA acts as the primary trend filter:
If the current price is above the daily 50 EMA, the trend is bullish.
If the current price is below the daily 50 EMA, the trend is bearish.
Lower Time Frame Entry Points:
The indicator calculates the 20 EMA on both the 1-hour (1H) and 15-minute (15M) time frames.
Buy and sell signals are generated when the price aligns with the trend on all three time frames:
Buy Signal: Price is above the daily 50 EMA and also above the 20 EMA on both the 1H and 15M charts.
Sell Signal: Price is below the daily 50 EMA and also below the 20 EMA on both the 1H and 15M charts.
Visual and Alert Features:
Plot Lines:
The daily 50 EMA is plotted in yellow for easy identification of the main trend.
The 20 EMA from the 1H chart is plotted in blue, and the 15M chart's EMA is in purple for comparison.
Buy/Sell Markers:
Green "Up" arrows appear for buy signals.
Red "Down" arrows appear for sell signals.
Alerts:
Alerts notify users when a buy or sell signal is triggered, making it easier to act on trading opportunities in real-time.
How to Use the Indicator
Identify the Main Trend:
Check the relationship between the price and the daily 50 EMA (yellow line):
Only look for buy signals if the price is above the daily 50 EMA.
Only look for sell signals if the price is below the daily 50 EMA.
Wait for Lower Time Frame Alignment:
For a valid signal, ensure that the price is also above or below the 20 EMA (blue and purple lines) on both the 1H and 15M time frames:
This alignment confirms short-term momentum in the same direction as the daily trend.
Act on Signals:
Use the arrows as visual cues for entry points:
Enter long trades on green "Up" arrows.
Enter short trades on red "Down" arrows.
The alerts will notify you of these signals, so you don’t have to monitor the chart constantly.
Exit Strategy:
Use your preferred stop-loss, take-profit, or trailing stop strategy.
You can also exit trades if the price crosses back below/above the daily 50 EMA, signaling a potential reversal.
Use Cases
Swing Traders: Use the daily trend filter to trade in the direction of the dominant trend, while using 1H and 15M signals to fine-tune entries.
Day Traders: Leverage the 1H and 15M time frames to capitalize on short-term momentum while respecting the broader daily trend.
Position Traders: Monitor the indicator to determine potential reversals or significant alignment across time frames.
Customizable Inputs
The indicator includes the following inputs:
Daily EMA Length: Default is 50. Adjust this to change the length of the trend filter EMA.
Lower Time Frame EMA Length: Default is 20. Adjust this to change the short-term EMA for the 1H and 15M charts.
Time Frames: Hardcoded to "D", "60", and "15", but you can modify the script for different time frames if needed.
Example Scenarios
Buy Signal:
Price is above the daily 50 EMA.
Price crosses above the 20 EMA on both the 1H and 15M time frames.
A green "Up" arrow is displayed, and an alert is triggered.
Sell Signal:
Price is below the daily 50 EMA.
Price crosses below the 20 EMA on both the 1H and 15M time frames.
A red "Down" arrow is displayed, and an alert is triggered.
Strengths and Limitations
Strengths:
Aligns trades with the higher time frame trend for increased probability.
Uses multiple time frame analysis to identify precise entry points.
Visual signals and alerts make it easy to use in real-time.
Limitations:
May produce fewer signals in choppy or ranging markets.
Requires discipline to avoid overtrading when conditions are unclear.
Lag in EMAs could result in late entries in fast-moving markets.
Final Notes
The Austin MTF EMA Entry Points indicator is a powerful tool for traders who value multiple time frame alignment and trend-following strategies. While it simplifies decision-making, it is always recommended to backtest and practice proper risk management before using it in live markets.

[blackcat] L1 BS Line of Defense █ OVERVIEW
The Pine Script provided is an advanced technical indicator designed to generate reliable buy and sell signals by integrating momentum, moving averages, and price level analyses. It employs a custom weighted moving average (WMA) and exponential moving averages (EMAs) to compute key signals known as the "Buy/Sell Signal" and the "Short Line." These signals aim to pinpoint optimal entry and exit points for trades by evaluating their relationship with current market dynamics.
█ FEATURES
Key Components:
• Custom Weighted Moving Average ( WMA ): Provides enhanced flexibility compared to traditional moving averages.
• Exponential Moving Averages ( EMA ): Smooths the defense line and its short-term counterpart to filter out market noise.
• Momentum Indicators: Includes both short-term and long-term momentum adjusted via custom WMA and EMAs.
• Conditional Signal Generation: Signals are triggered based on precise crossovers and price conditions.
Logical Framework:
1 — Input Parameters:
No explicit user-defined inputs; defaults are used for internal calculations.
2 — Custom Functions:
• custom_wma : Calculates a custom WMA.
• calculate_buy_sell_signals : Generates buy and sell signals.
3 — Calculations:
• Momentum and Range Analysis over 9, 34, and 60-bar periods.
• Application of custom WMA and EMAs to smooth and refine data.
• Derivation of the "defense line" and "short_ema_defense."
4 — Plotting:
• Main signal lines ("Buy/Sell Signal" and "Short Line") are visualized.
• A horizontal zero line serves as a reference point.
█ HOW TO USE
To utilize this script effectively:
1 — Add the script to your TradingView chart.
2 — Observe the "Buy/Sell Signal" and "Short Line" relative to the zero line and each other.
3 — Look for crossovers and divergence patterns to identify potential trade opportunities.
4 — Combine the signals with additional technical indicators or fundamental analysis for better accuracy.
█ LIMITATIONS
While the script provides valuable insights, users should consider the following limitations:
• Default settings may not suit all markets or instruments; customization might be necessary.
• False signals can occur during volatile or ranging markets.
• Backtesting and optimization are recommended before live trading.
█ NOTES
For further enhancement and personalization:
• Introduce adjustable input parameters for WMA and EMA lengths and weights.
• Extend the script into a full-fledged trading strategy with entry and exit rules.
• Apply the script across multiple timeframes for comprehensive analysis.
• Incorporate risk management practices such as stop-loss and take-profit levels.
• Explore related Pine Script functions like security() for multi-timeframe analysis and [pine>alertcondition() for automated alerts.
Understanding core concepts like momentum, moving averages, and crossovers will aid in developing similar indicators or refining existing ones.
Logarithmic Regression AlternativeLogarithmic regression is typically used to model situations where growth or decay accelerates rapidly at first and then slows over time. Bitcoin is a good example.
𝑦 = 𝑎 + 𝑏 * ln(𝑥)
With this logarithmic regression (log reg) formula 𝑦 (price) is calculated with constants 𝑎 and 𝑏, where 𝑥 is the bar_index .
Instead of using the sum of log x/y values, together with the dot product of log x/y and the sum of the square of log x-values, to calculate a and b, I wanted to see if it was possible to calculate a and b differently.
In this script, the log reg is calculated with several different assumed a & b values, after which the log reg level is compared to each Swing. The log reg, where all swings on average are closest to the level, produces the final 𝑎 & 𝑏 values used to display the levels.
🔶 USAGE
The script shows the calculated logarithmic regression value from historical swings, provided there are enough swings, the price pattern fits the log reg model, and previous swings are close to the calculated Top/Bottom levels.
When the price approaches one of the calculated Top or Bottom levels, these levels could act as potential cycle Top or Bottom.
Since the logarithmic regression depends on swing values, each new value will change the calculation. A well-fitted model could not fit anymore in the future.
Swings are based on Weekly bars. A Top Swing, for example, with Swing setting 30, is the highest value in 60 weeks. Thirty bars at the left and right of the Swing will be lower than the Top Swing. This means that a confirmation is triggered 30 weeks after the Swing. The period will be automatically multiplied by 7 on the daily chart, where 30 becomes 210 bars.
Please note that the goal of this script is not to show swings rapidly; it is meant to show the potential next cycle's Top/Bottom levels.
🔹 Multiple Levels
The script includes the option to display 3 Top/Bottom levels, which uses different values for the swing calculations.
Top: 'high', 'maximum open/close' or 'close'
Bottom: 'low', 'minimum open/close' or 'close'
These levels can be adjusted up/down with a percentage.
Lastly, an "Average" is included for each set, which will only be visible when "AVG" is enabled, together with both Top and Bottom levels.
🔹 Notes
Users have to check the validity of swings; the above example only uses 1 Top Swing for its calculations, making the Top level unreliable.
Here, 1 of the Bottom Swings is pretty far from the bottom level, changing the swing settings can give a more reliable bottom level where all swings are close to that level.
Note the display was set at "Logarithmic", it can just as well be shown as "Regular"
In the example below, the price evolution does not fit the logarithmic regression model, where growth should accelerate rapidly at first and then slows over time.
Please note that this script can only be used on a daily timeframe or higher; using it at a lower timeframe will show a warning. Also, it doesn't work with bar-replay.
🔶 DETAILS
The code gathers data from historical swings. At the last bar, all swings are calculated with different a and b values. The a and b values which results in the smallest difference between all swings and Top/Bottom levels become the final a and b values.
The ranges of a and b are between -20.000 to +20.000, which means a and b will have the values -20.000, -19.999, -19.998, -19.997, -19.996, ... -> +20.000.
As you can imagine, the number of calculations is enormous. Therefore, the calculation is split into parts, first very roughly and then very fine.
The first calculations are done between -20 and +20 (-20, -19, -18, ...), resulting in, for example, 4.
The next set of calculations is performed only around the previous result, in this case between 3 (4-1) and 5 (4+1), resulting in, for example, 3.9. The next set goes even more in detail, for example, between 3.8 (3.9-0.1) and 4.0 (3.9 + 0.1), and so on.
1) -20 -> +20 , then loop with step 1 (result (example): 4 )
2) 4 - 1 -> 4 +1 , then loop with step 0.1 (result (example): 3.9 )
3) 3.9 - 0.1 -> 3.9 +0.1 , then loop with step 0.01 (result (example): 3.93 )
4) 3.93 - 0.01 -> 3.93 +0.01, then loop with step 0.001 (result (example): 3.928)
This ensures complicated calculations with less effort.
These calculations are done at the last bar, where the levels are displayed, which means you can see different results when a new swing is found.
Also, note that this indicator has been developed for a daily (or higher) timeframe chart.

Rate of Change of OBV with RSI ColorThis indicator combines three popular tools in technical analysis : On-Balance Volume (OBV), Rate of Change (ROC), and Relative Strength Index (RSI). It aims to monitor momentum and potential trend reversals based on volume and price changes.
Calculation:
ROC(OBV) = ((OBV(today) - OBV(today - period)) / OBV(today - period)) * 100
This calculates the percentage change in OBV over a specific period. A positive ROC indicates an upward trend in volume, while a negative ROC suggests a downward trend.
What it Monitors:
OBV: Tracks the volume flow associated with price movements. Rising OBV suggests buying pressure, while falling OBV suggests selling pressure.
ROC of OBV:
Measures the rate of change in the OBV, indicating if the volume flow is accelerating or decelerating.
RSI: Measures the strength of recent price movements, indicating potential overbought or oversold conditions.
How it can be Used:
Identifying Trend Continuation: Rising ROC OBV with a rising RSI might suggest a continuation of an uptrend, especially if the color is lime (RSI above 60).
Identifying Trend Reversal: Falling ROC OBV with a declining RSI might suggest a potential trend reversal, especially if the color approaches blue (RSI below 40).
Confirmation with Threshold: The horizontal line (threshold) can be used as a support or resistance level. Bouncing ROC OBV off the threshold with a color change could suggest a pause in the trend but not necessarily a reversal.
When this Indicator is Useful:
This indicator can be useful for assets with strong volume activity, where tracking volume changes provides additional insights.
It might be helpful during periods of consolidation or trend continuation to identify potential breakouts or confirmations.

Multi-Timeframe MACD, Signal & Histogram TableThis Pine Script is designed for the TradingView platform to create a multi-timeframe MACD (Moving Average Convergence Divergence), Signal, and Histogram table that displays values for different timeframes. The script uses the MACD indicator to assess market trends across various timeframes and display the results in a table format on the chart. Here's a breakdown of its components and functionality:
1. User Inputs for Timeframes:
The script allows the user to input five different timeframes for the analysis. These are configured using input.string, which enables the user to select from a list of timeframes (from seconds to months).
tf1 to tf5 represent the different timeframes (for example, 5 minutes, 15 minutes, 60 minutes, 240 minutes, and daily).
2. MACD Settings:
The script provides adjustable settings for the MACD calculation:
macdShortLength (default 12): The length of the short-term moving average for the MACD.
macdLongLength (default 26): The length of the long-term moving average for the MACD.
macdSignalLength (default 9): The length of the signal line, which is an EMA (Exponential Moving Average) of the MACD line.
3. MACD Calculation Function (calc_macd):
This function calculates the MACD, Signal, and Histogram values:
MACD Line: Difference between the fast and slow exponential moving averages.
Signal Line: EMA of the MACD line.
Histogram: Difference between the MACD line and Signal line.
4. Requesting Multi-Timeframe Data:
The script calculates the MACD, Signal, and Histogram for the selected timeframes (tf1 to tf5) using request.security, which retrieves data for those timeframes:
macd_tf1, signal_tf1, hist_tf1 for Timeframe 1 (and similar variables for the other timeframes).
5. Rounding Values:
A helper function roundDecimal is used to round MACD, Signal, and Histogram values to two decimal places for readability.
6. Color Assignment Based on Value:
The colors of the values in the table cells are dynamically set based on whether the value is positive or negative:
MACD, Signal, and Histogram: The script uses conditional color assignments (green for positive values, red for negative values).
For example, if the MACD value is greater than or equal to 0, it is colored green, otherwise red. The same logic applies to the Signal and Histogram values.
7. Populating the Table:
For each timeframe (tf1 to tf5), the script populates the table with the following data:
Timeframe (e.g., "5 min")
Rounded MACD value
Rounded Signal value
Rounded Histogram value
The respective color is applied to each value based on whether it is positive or negative.
8. Table Update:
The table is updated dynamically with new data on each new bar. Each timeframe’s values are populated into the table starting from row 1 through row 5.
RSI-EMA Signal by stock shooter## Strategy Description: 200 EMA Crossover with RSI, Green/Red Candles, Volume, and Exit Conditions
This strategy combines several technical indicators to identify potential long and short entry opportunities in a trading instrument. Here's a breakdown of its components:
1. 200-period Exponential Moving Average (EMA):
* The 200-period EMA acts as a long-term trend indicator.
* The strategy looks for entries when the price is above (long) or below (short) the 200 EMA.
2. Relative Strength Index (RSI):
* The RSI measures the momentum of price movements and helps identify overbought and oversold conditions.
* The strategy looks for entries when the RSI is below 40 (oversold) for long positions and above 60 (overbought) for short positions.
3. Green/Red Candles:
* This indicator filters out potential entries based on the current candle's closing price relative to its opening price.
* The strategy only considers long entries on green candles (closing price higher than opening) and short entries on red candles (closing price lower than opening).
4. Volume:
* This indicator adds a volume filter to the entry conditions.
* The strategy only considers entries when the current candle's volume is higher than the average volume of the previous 20 candles, aiming for stronger signals.
Overall:
This strategy aims to capture long opportunities during potential uptrends and short opportunities during downtrends, based on a combination of price action, momentum, and volume confirmation.
Important Notes:
Backtesting is crucial to evaluate the historical performance of this strategy before deploying it with real capital.
Consider incorporating additional risk management techniques like stop-loss orders.
This strategy is just a starting point and can be further customized based on your trading goals and risk tolerance.
Stoch RSI and RSI Buy/Sell Signals with MACD Trend FilterDescription of the Indicator
This Pine Script is designed to provide traders with buy and sell signals based on the combination of Stochastic RSI, RSI, and MACD indicators, enhanced by the confirmation of candle colors. The primary goal is to facilitate informed trading decisions in various market conditions by utilizing different indicators and their interactions. The script allows customization of various parameters, providing flexibility for traders to adapt it to their specific trading styles.
Usefulness
This indicator is not just a mashup of existing indicators; it integrates the functionality of multiple momentum and trend-detection methods into a cohesive trading tool. The combination of Stochastic RSI, RSI, and MACD offers a well-rounded approach to analyzing market conditions, allowing traders to identify entry and exit points effectively. The inclusion of color-coded signals (strong vs. weak) further enhances its utility by providing visual cues about the strength of the signals.
How to Use This Indicator
Input Settings: Adjust the parameters for the Stochastic RSI, RSI, and MACD to fit your trading style. Set the overbought/oversold levels according to your risk tolerance.
Signal Colors:
Strong Buy Signal: Indicated by a green label and confirmed by a green candle (close > open).
Weak Buy Signal: Indicated by a blue label and confirmed by a green candle (close > open).
Strong Sell Signal: Indicated by a red label and confirmed by a red candle (close < open).
Weak Sell Signal: Indicated by an orange label and confirmed by a red candle (close < open).
Example Trading Strategy Using This Indicator
To effectively use this indicator as part of your trading strategy, follow these detailed steps:
Setup:
Timeframe : Select a timeframe that aligns with your trading style (e.g., 15-minute for intraday, 1-hour for swing trading, or daily for longer-term positions).
Indicator Settings : Customize the Stochastic RSI, RSI, and MACD parameters to suit your trading approach. Adjust overbought/oversold levels to match your risk tolerance.
Strategy:
1. Strong Buy Entry Criteria :
Wait for a strong buy signal (green label) when the RSI is at or below the oversold level (e.g., ≤ 35), indicating a deeply oversold market. Confirm that the MACD shows a decreasing trend (bearish momentum weakening) to validate a potential reversal. Ensure the current candle is green (close > open) if candle color confirmation is enabled.
Example Use : On a 1-hour chart, if the RSI drops below 35, MACD shows three consecutive bars of decreasing negative momentum, and a green candle forms, enter a buy position. This setup signals a robust entry with strong momentum backing it.
2. Weak Buy Entry Criteria :
Monitor for weak buy signals (blue label) when RSI is above the oversold level but still below the neutral (e.g., between 36 and 50). This indicates a market recovering from an oversold state but not fully reversing yet. These signals can be used for early entries with additional confirmations, such as support levels or higher timeframe trends.
Example Use : On the same 1-hour chart, if RSI is at 45, the MACD shows momentum stabilizing (not necessarily negative), and a green candle appears, consider a partial or cautious entry. Use this as an early warning for a potential bullish move, especially when higher timeframe indicators align.
3. Strong Sell Entry Criteria :
Look for a strong sell signal (red label) when RSI is at or above the overbought level (e.g., ≥ 65), signaling a strong overbought condition. The MACD should show three consecutive bars of increasing positive momentum to indicate that the bullish trend is weakening. Ensure the current candle is red (close < open) if candle color confirmation is enabled.
Example Use : If RSI reaches 70, MACD shows increasing momentum that starts to level off, and a red candle forms on a 1-hour chart, initiate a short position with a stop loss set above recent resistance. This is a high-confidence signal for potential price reversal or pullback.
4. Weak Sell Entry Criteria :
Use weak sell signals (orange label) when RSI is between the neutral and overbought levels (e.g., between 50 and 64). These can indicate potential short opportunities that might not yet be fully mature but are worth monitoring. Look for other confirmations like resistance levels or trendline touches to strengthen the signal.
Example Use : If RSI reads 60 on a 1-hour chart, and the MACD shows slight positive momentum with signs of slowing down, place a cautious sell position or scale out of existing long positions. This setup allows you to prepare for a possible downtrend.
Trade Management:
Stop Loss : For buy trades, place stop losses below recent swing lows. For sell trades, set stops above recent swing highs to manage risk effectively.
Take Profit : Target nearby resistance or support levels, apply risk-to-reward ratios (e.g., 1:2), or use trailing stops to lock in profits as price moves in your favor.
Confirmation : Align these signals with broader trends on higher timeframes. For example, if you receive a weak buy signal on a 15-minute chart, check the 1-hour or daily chart to ensure the overall trend is not bearish.
Real-World Example: Imagine trading on a 15-minute chart :
For a buy:
A strong buy signal (green) appears when the RSI dips to 32, MACD shows declining bearish momentum, and a green candle forms. Enter a buy position with a stop loss below the most recent support level.
Alternatively, a weak buy signal (blue) appears when RSI is at 47. Use this as a signal to start monitoring the market closely or enter a smaller position if other indicators (like support and volume analysis) align.
For a sell:
A strong sell signal (red) with RSI at 72 and a red candle signals to short with conviction. Place your stop loss just above the last peak.
A weak sell signal (orange) with RSI at 62 might prompt caution but can still be acted on if confirmed by declining volume or touching a resistance level.
These strategies show how to blend both strong and weak signals into your trading for more nuanced decision-making.
Technical Analysis of the Code
1. Stochastic RSI Calculation:
The script calculates the Stochastic RSI (stochRsiK) using the RSI as input and smooths it with a moving average (stochRsiD).
Code Explanation : ta.stoch(rsi, rsi, rsi, stochLength) computes the Stochastic RSI, and ta.sma(stochRsiK, stochSmoothing) applies smoothing.
2. RSI Calculation :
The RSI is computed over a user-defined period and checks for overbought or oversold conditions.
Code Explanation : rsi = ta.rsi(close, rsiLength) calculates RSI values.
3. MACD Trend Filter :
MACD is calculated with fast, slow, and signal lengths, identifying trends via three consecutive bars moving in the same direction.
Code Explanation : = ta.macd(close, macdLengthFast, macdLengthSlow, macdSignalLength) sets MACD values. Conditions like macdLine < macdLine confirm trends.
4. Buy and Sell Conditions :
The script checks Stochastic RSI, RSI, and MACD values to set buy/sell flags. Candle color filters further confirm valid entries.
Code Explanation : buyConditionMet and sellConditionMet logically check all conditions and toggles (enableStochCondition, enableRSICondition, etc.).
5. Signal Flags and Confirmation :
Flags track when conditions are met and ensure signals only appear on appropriate candle colors.
Code Explanation : Conditional blocks (if statements) update buyFlag and sellFlag.
6. Labels and Alerts :
The indicator plots "BUY" or "SELL" labels with the RSI value when signals trigger and sets alerts through alertcondition().
Code Explanation : label.new() displays the signal, color-coded for strength based on RSI.
NOTE : All strategies can be enabled or disabled in the settings, allowing traders to customize the indicator to their preferences and trading styles.

➤ With RSI Candles:
⭐ Overview and How It Works:
This script provides a multi-asset analysis tool to assess various market conditions across four symbols simultaneously. It combines several indicators such as daily price change, Moving Averages (MA), Bollinger Bands (BB), Parabolic SAR, RSI, and VWAP to generate buy/sell signals and trend indicators. Its strength lies in the layered use of indicators to enhance signal reliability, making it valuable for traders needing cross-validation in decision-making.
⭐ Key Features and Functionality:
The script evaluates each symbol's price against various indicators and conditions:
Daily Price Conditions: It checks if each symbol’s close price is above or below the previous day’s open, close, and intra-day ranges, forming a foundational bullish/bearish condition.
Range Breakout 1st 5min Candle (ORB): Opening Range Breakout levels are calculated and compared with current close prices, detecting breakout/breakdown conditions.
ORB Body: This basically calculates the previous day Daily candle body size, if todays Daily candle body size is greater than previous day, then we can say that we are having good momentum else its likely to be in-sidebar trading.
Moving Averages (MA): It leverages EMA-20, 2-day, and 3-day exponential moving averages to gauge short to medium-term trends.
RSI and VWAP: Relative Strength Index (RSI) determines overbought or oversold conditions, while VWAP compares prices to volume-weighted levels.
Bollinger Bands and Trend Analysis: Detects volatility and potential breakout conditions.
Concept of ORB Body:
Current_PrevDay_Body = (math.max(var_Current_PrevD_Open, var_Current_PrevD_Close) - math.min(var_Current_PrevD_Open, var_Current_PrevD_Close))
Current_Upper_ORB = var_Current_D_Open + Current_PrevDay_Body
Current_Lower_ORB = var_Current_D_Open - Current_PrevDay_Body

Advanced Multi-Seasonality StrategyThe Multi-Seasonality Strategy is a trading system based on seasonal market patterns. Seasonality refers to recurring market trends driven by predictable calendar-based events. These patterns emerge due to economic cycles, corporate activities (e.g., earnings reports), and investor behavior around specific times of the year. Studies have shown that such effects can influence asset prices over defined periods, leading to opportunities for traders who exploit these patterns (Hirshleifer, 2001; Bouman & Jacobsen, 2002).
How the Strategy Works:
The strategy allows the user to define four distinct periods within a calendar year. For each period, the trader selects:
Entry Date (Month and Day): The date to enter the trade.
Holding Period: The number of trading days to remain in the trade after the entry.
Trade Direction: Whether to take a long or short position during that period.
The system is designed with flexibility, enabling the user to activate or deactivate each of the four periods. The idea is to take advantage of seasonal patterns, such as buying during historically strong periods and selling during weaker ones. A well-known example is the "Sell in May and Go Away" phenomenon, which suggests that stock returns are higher from November to April and weaker from May to October (Bouman & Jacobsen, 2002).
Seasonality in Financial Markets:
Seasonal effects have been documented across different asset classes and markets:
Equities: Stock markets tend to exhibit higher returns during certain months, such as the "January effect," where prices rise after year-end tax-loss selling (Haugen & Lakonishok, 1987).
Commodities: Agricultural commodities often follow seasonal planting and harvesting cycles, which impact supply and demand patterns (Fama & French, 1987).
Forex: Currency pairs may show strength or weakness during specific quarters based on macroeconomic factors, such as fiscal year-end flows or central bank policy decisions.
Scientific Basis:
Research shows that market anomalies like seasonality are linked to behavioral biases and institutional practices. For example, investors may respond to tax incentives at the end of the year, and companies may engage in window dressing (Haugen & Lakonishok, 1987). Additionally, macroeconomic factors, such as monetary policy shifts and holiday trading volumes, can also contribute to predictable seasonal trends (Bouman & Jacobsen, 2002).
Risks of Seasonal Trading:
While the strategy seeks to exploit predictable patterns, there are inherent risks:
Market Changes: Seasonal effects observed in the past may weaken or disappear as market conditions evolve. Increased algorithmic trading, globalization, and policy changes can reduce the reliability of historical patterns (Lo, 2004).
Overfitting: One of the risks in seasonal trading is overfitting the strategy to historical data. A pattern that worked in the past may not necessarily work in the future, especially if it was based on random chance or external factors that no longer apply (Sullivan, Timmermann, & White, 1999).
Liquidity and Volatility: Trading during specific periods may expose the trader to low liquidity, especially around holidays or earnings seasons, leading to slippage and larger-than-expected price swings.
Economic and Geopolitical Shocks: External events such as pandemics, wars, or political instability can disrupt seasonal patterns, leading to unexpected market behavior.
Conclusion:
The Multi-Seasonality Strategy capitalizes on the predictable nature of certain calendar-based patterns in financial markets. By entering and exiting trades based on well-established seasonal effects, traders can potentially capture short-term profits. However, caution is necessary, as market dynamics can change, and seasonal patterns are not guaranteed to persist. Rigorous backtesting, combined with risk management practices, is essential to successfully implementing this strategy.

Fibonacci BandsDescription
This indicator dynamically calculates Fibonacci retracement levels based on the highest high and lowest low over a specified lookback period. The key Fibonacci levels (0.236, 0.382, 0.5, 0.618, and 0.786) are plotted on the chart, with shaded areas between these levels for visual guidance.
How it works
The script computes the highest high (hh) and the lowest low (ll) over the defined length.
It calculates the price range (delta) as the difference between the highest high and the lowest low.
Fibonacci levels are then determined using the formula: ℎℎ − (delta × Fibonacci ratio)
Each Fibonacci level is then plotted as a line with a specific color.
Key Features
Customizable Length: Users can adjust the lookback period to suit their trading strategy.
Multiple Fibonacci Levels: Includes common Fibonacci retracement levels, providing traders with a comprehensive view of potential support and resistance areas.
Visual Fillings: The script includes customizable shading between levels, which helps traders quickly identify key zones (like the "Golden Zone" between 0.5 and 0.618).
Unique Points
Fibonacci Focus: This script is specifically designed around Fibonacci retracement levels, which are popular among technical traders for identifying potential reversal points.
Dynamic Range Calculation: The use of the highest high and lowest low within a user-defined period offers a dynamic approach to adapting to changing market conditions.
How to use it
Adjust the length parameter (default is 60) to determine how many bars back the indicator will calculate the highest high and lowest low. A longer length may provide a broader perspective of price action, while a shorter length may react more quickly to recent price changes.
Observe the plotted Fibonacci levels: 0.236, 0.382, 0.5, 0.618, and 0.786. These levels often act as potential support and resistance points. Pay attention to how price interacts with these levels.
When the price approaches a Fibonacci level, consider it a potential reversal point. The filled areas between the Fibonacci levels indicate zones where price might consolidate or reverse. The "Golden Zone" (between 0.5 and 0.618) is particularly significant; many traders watch this area closely for potential entry points in an uptrend or exit points in a downtrend.

Stochastics Confluences 4 in 1Description of the Pine Script:
This script plots the Full Stochastic indicator for four different time periods, and highlights conditions where potential buy or sell signals can be identified. The Stochastic indicator measures the position of the current closing price relative to the range of high and low prices over a defined period, helping traders identify overbought and oversold conditions.
Key Features:
Stochastic Calculation for 4 Different Periods:
The script calculates the Stochastic for four separate lookback periods: 9, 14, 40, and 60 bars.
Each Stochastic value is smoothed by a Simple Moving Average (SMA) to reduce noise and provide a clearer signal.
Visual Representation:
It plots each Stochastic value on the chart using different colors, allowing the user to see how the different periods of the indicator behave relative to each other.
Horizontal lines are drawn at 80 (Upper Bound) and 20 (Lower Bound), commonly used to identify overbought and oversold regions.
Highlighting Buy and Sell Conditions:
Green Highlight (Potential Buy Signal):
When all four Stochastic values (for the four different periods) are below 20, this suggests that the asset is in an oversold condition across multiple timeframes. The green background highlight appears when the Stochastic lines converge below 20, indicating a potential buy signal, as the price may be preparing to move upward from an oversold state.
Red Highlight (Potential Sell Signal):
When all four Stochastic values are above 80, the asset is in an overbought condition across multiple timeframes. The red background highlight appears when the Stochastic lines converge above 80, indicating a potential sell signal, as the price may soon reverse downward from an overbought state.
How to Interpret the Signals:
Buy Signals (Green Highlight):
When the chart is highlighted in green, it means the Stochastic indicators for all four periods are below 20, signaling that the asset is oversold and may be nearing a potential upward reversal. This condition suggests a possible buying opportunity, especially when other indicators confirm the potential for an upward trend.
Sell Signals (Red Highlight):
When the chart is highlighted in red, it indicates that the Stochastic indicators for all four periods are above 80, meaning the asset is overbought. This condition signals a possible downward reversal, suggesting a potential selling opportunity if the price begins to show signs of weakness.
By using this script, traders can visually identify periods of strong confluence across different timeframes when the Stochastic indicators are in extreme oversold or overbought conditions, which are traditionally seen as strong buy or sell signals.
This approach helps filter out weaker signals and focuses on moments when all timeframes align, increasing the probability of a successful trade.
Futures Beta Overview with Different BenchmarksBeta Trading and Its Implementation with Futures
Understanding Beta
Beta is a measure of a security's volatility in relation to the overall market. It represents the sensitivity of the asset's returns to movements in the market, typically benchmarked against an index like the S&P 500. A beta of 1 indicates that the asset moves in line with the market, while a beta greater than 1 suggests higher volatility and potential risk, and a beta less than 1 indicates lower volatility.
The Beta Trading Strategy
Beta trading involves creating positions that exploit the discrepancies between the theoretical (or expected) beta of an asset and its actual market performance. The strategy often includes:
Long Positions on High Beta Assets: Investors might take long positions in assets with high beta when they expect market conditions to improve, as these assets have the potential to generate higher returns.
Short Positions on Low Beta Assets: Conversely, shorting low beta assets can be a strategy when the market is expected to decline, as these assets tend to perform better in down markets compared to high beta assets.
Betting Against (Bad) Beta
The paper "Betting Against Beta" by Frazzini and Pedersen (2014) provides insights into a trading strategy that involves betting against high beta stocks in favor of low beta stocks. The authors argue that high beta stocks do not provide the expected return premium over time, and that low beta stocks can yield higher risk-adjusted returns.
Key Points from the Paper:
Risk Premium: The authors assert that investors irrationally demand a higher risk premium for holding high beta stocks, leading to an overpricing of these assets. Conversely, low beta stocks are often undervalued.
Empirical Evidence: The paper presents empirical evidence showing that portfolios of low beta stocks outperform portfolios of high beta stocks over long periods. The performance difference is attributed to the irrational behavior of investors who overvalue riskier assets.
Market Conditions: The paper suggests that the underperformance of high beta stocks is particularly pronounced during market downturns, making low beta stocks a more attractive investment during volatile periods.
Implementation of the Strategy with Futures
Futures contracts can be used to implement the betting against beta strategy due to their ability to provide leveraged exposure to various asset classes. Here’s how the strategy can be executed using futures:
Identify High and Low Beta Futures: The first step involves identifying futures contracts that have high beta characteristics (more sensitive to market movements) and those with low beta characteristics (less sensitive). For example, commodity futures like crude oil or agricultural products might exhibit high beta due to their price volatility, while Treasury bond futures might show lower beta.
Construct a Portfolio: Investors can construct a portfolio that goes long on low beta futures and short on high beta futures. This can involve trading contracts on stock indices for high beta stocks and bonds for low beta exposures.
Leverage and Risk Management: Futures allow for leverage, which means that a small movement in the underlying asset can lead to significant gains or losses. Proper risk management is essential, using stop-loss orders and position sizing to mitigate the inherent risks associated with leveraged trading.
Adjusting Positions: The positions may need to be adjusted based on market conditions and the ongoing performance of the futures contracts. Continuous monitoring and rebalancing of the portfolio are essential to maintain the desired risk profile.
Performance Evaluation: Finally, investors should regularly evaluate the performance of the portfolio to ensure it aligns with the expected outcomes of the betting against beta strategy. Metrics like the Sharpe ratio can be used to assess the risk-adjusted returns of the portfolio.
Conclusion
Beta trading, particularly the strategy of betting against high beta assets, presents a compelling approach to capitalizing on market inefficiencies. The research by Frazzini and Pedersen emphasizes the benefits of focusing on low beta assets, which can yield more favorable risk-adjusted returns over time. When implemented using futures, this strategy can provide a flexible and efficient means to execute trades while managing risks effectively.

Gold Scalping Strategy with Precise EntriesThe Gold Scalping Strategy with Precise Entries is designed to take advantage of short-term price movements in the gold market (XAU/USD). This strategy uses a combination of technical indicators and chart patterns to identify precise buy and sell opportunities during times of consolidation and trend continuation.
Key Elements of the Strategy:
Exponential Moving Averages (EMAs):
50 EMA: Used as the shorter-term moving average to detect the recent price trend.
200 EMA: Used as the longer-term moving average to determine the overall market trend.
Trend Identification:
A bullish trend is identified when the 50 EMA is above the 200 EMA.
A bearish trend is identified when the 50 EMA is below the 200 EMA.
Average True Range (ATR):
ATR (14) is used to calculate the market's volatility and to set a dynamic stop loss based on recent price movements. Higher ATR values indicate higher volatility.
ATR helps define a suitable stop-loss distance from the entry point.
Relative Strength Index (RSI):
RSI (14) is used as a momentum oscillator to detect overbought or oversold conditions.
However, in this strategy, the RSI is primarily used as a consolidation filter to look for neutral zones (between 45 and 55), which may indicate a potential breakout or trend continuation after a consolidation phase.
Engulfing Patterns:
Bullish Engulfing: A bullish signal is generated when the current candle fully engulfs the previous bearish candle, indicating potential upward momentum.
Bearish Engulfing: A bearish signal is generated when the current candle fully engulfs the previous bullish candle, signaling potential downward momentum.
Precise Entry Conditions:
Long (Buy):
The 50 EMA is above the 200 EMA (bullish trend).
The RSI is between 45 and 55 (neutral/consolidation zone).
A bullish engulfing pattern occurs.
The price closes above the 50 EMA.
Short (Sell):
The 50 EMA is below the 200 EMA (bearish trend).
The RSI is between 45 and 55 (neutral/consolidation zone).
A bearish engulfing pattern occurs.
The price closes below the 50 EMA.
Take Profit and Stop Loss:
Take Profit: A fixed 20-pip target (where 1 pip = 0.10 movement in gold) is used for each trade.
Stop Loss: The stop-loss is dynamically set based on the ATR, ensuring that it adapts to current market volatility.
Visual Signals:
Buy and sell signals are visually plotted on the chart using green and red labels, indicating precise points of entry.
Advantages of This Strategy:
Trend Alignment: The strategy ensures that trades are taken in the direction of the overall trend, as indicated by the 50 and 200 EMAs.
Volatility Adaptation: The use of ATR allows the stop loss to adapt to the current market conditions, reducing the risk of premature exits in volatile markets.
Precise Entries: The combination of engulfing patterns and the neutral RSI zone provides a high-probability entry signal that captures momentum after consolidation.
Quick Scalping: With a fixed 20-pip profit target, the strategy is designed to capture small price movements quickly, which is ideal for scalping.
This strategy can be applied to lower timeframes (such as 1-minute, 5-minute, or 15-minute charts) for frequent trade opportunities in gold trading, making it suitable for day traders or scalpers. However, proper risk management should always be used due to the inherent volatility of gold.

Options Series - MTF_Parabolic_SAR
⭐ Purpose of the Script
This script, titled "Options Series - MTF_Parabolic_SAR," is designed for analyzing price trends using the Parabolic SAR (Stop and Reverse) indicator across multiple timeframes (MTF). It dynamically highlights bullish and bearish conditions, helping traders identify trends with improved accuracy. The script uses the Parabolic SAR across three customizable timeframes (default: 5, 15, and 60 minutes) to gauge the market sentiment.
⭐ Key Features and Insights:
Multi-Timeframe Parabolic SAR: The script calculates the Parabolic SAR for three different timeframes ( input_tf_1 , input_tf_2 , and input_tf_3 ). Traders can configure these timeframes to match their trading style (e.g., intraday, swing).
The SAR plots adapt to the selected timeframe, helping traders see different perspectives of price movement, such as short-term and long-term trends.
Bullish and Bearish Conditions: The script determines bullish and bearish conditions by comparing the close price against the Parabolic SAR in each timeframe.
If at least one timeframe indicates a bullish condition (close price above SAR), the bars are colored green . Conversely, if one timeframe signals bearish conditions (close below SAR), the bars turn red .
This provides an at-a-glance view of the price trend across multiple timeframes, offering insights into the market's strength and direction.
Visual Enhancements: Bar Coloring: Bars are visually enhanced with a color scheme: green for bullish , red for bearish , and gray for neutral conditions. This makes it easy to spot market trends and reversals directly on the chart. Candle Plotting: The current candle is plotted with the corresponding color and labeled with the SAR values for each timeframe. This aids traders in tracking real-time price action.
Labeling of SAR Values: The script displays SAR values for each timeframe as floating labels next to the chart. These labels contain the timeframe and the exact SAR value, making it easier to reference without cluttering the chart.
⭐ Trading Advantages: Customizable and Adaptive: The customizable timeframes and SAR settings allow traders to adapt the script to various market conditions and their specific trading strategies. This flexibility provides a powerful tool for identifying entry and exit points. Multi-Timeframe Insights: By considering multiple timeframes, the script offers a comprehensive market view, making it easier to confirm strong trends and avoid false signals.
⭐ How It Helps Traders: Trend Identification: By visualizing Parabolic SAR across multiple timeframes, traders can quickly assess trend strength and direction. Reversal Detection: The script's color changes (green to red or vice versa) signal potential trend reversals, offering critical information for managing trades and reducing risk.
🚀 Conclusion:
This script provides traders with a multi-timeframe analysis tool for identifying trends and potential reversals using the Parabolic SAR. By offering customizable timeframes, clear visual cues, and SAR value labeling, it simplifies decision-making and enhances market insights.
GBP Index vs CAD Index Currency OscillatorGBP vs CAD Currency Oscillator
This custom oscillator compares the relative strength of GBP (British Pound) and CAD (Canadian Dollar) against a basket of other currencies to determine potential overbought and oversold conditions. The indicator is designed to help traders evaluate momentum shifts and identify possible trend reversals between these two currencies, not just the GBPCAD pair.
How it Works:
Currency Index Calculation:
The oscillator calculates the average percentage change in 7 key GBP pairs (GBPUSD, EURGBP, GBPJPY, GBPAUD, GBPNZD, GBPCAD, and GBPCHF).
Similarly, it calculates the average percentage change for 7 key CAD pairs (USDCAD, EURCAD, CADJPY, AUDCAD, NZDCAD, GBPCAD, and CADCHF).
Stochastic Oscillator:
The indicator calculates a 0-100 oscillator for both the GBP and CAD currency indices based on the highest high and lowest low over a user-defined lookback period (default is 14 anlthough 60 works great on 1m chart).
The oscillator is smoothed using a simple moving average (default smoothing period is 3) to reduce noise and improve visual clarity.
Overbought/Oversold Conditions:
Overbought: When both the GBP and CAD oscillators exceed 80, the background turns red, indicating potential overbought conditions.
Oversold: When both oscillators fall below 20, the background turns green, signaling possible oversold conditions.
Crossovers:
When the GBP oscillator crosses above the CAD oscillator, a green dot appears at the bottom of the chart, signaling potential GBP strength.
When the GBP oscillator crosses below the CAD oscillator, a red dot appears, signaling potential CAD strength.
How to Use:
Overbought/Oversold Conditions: Use the red and green background highlights to spot potential overbought or oversold market conditions, helping you identify possible turning points.
Customization Options:
Lookback Period: You can adjust the lookback period for the stochastic calculation, allowing for sensitivity tuning (default: 14).
Smoothing Period: Control the degree of smoothing applied to the oscillators (default: 3).
This oscillator is ideal for traders focused on trading GBP and CAD pairs, offering a comparative analysis that can assist in better decision-making based on relative currency strength.
Daksh RSI POINT to ShootHere are the key points and features of the Pine Script provided:
### 1. **Indicator Settings**:
- The indicator is named **"POINT and Shoot"** and is set for non-overlay (`overlay=false`) on the chart.
- `max_bars_back=4000` is defined, indicating the maximum number of bars that the script can reference.
### 2. **Input Parameters**:
- `Src` (Source): The price source, default is `close`.
- `rsilen` (RSI Length): The length for calculating RSI, default is 20.
- `linestylei`: Style for the trend lines (`Solid` or `Dashed`).
- `linewidth`: Width of the plotted lines, between 1 and 4.
- `showbroken`: Option to show broken trend lines.
- `extendlines`: Option to extend trend lines.
- `showpivot`: Show pivot points (highs and lows).
- `showema`: Show a weighted moving average (WMA) line.
- `len`: Length for calculating WMA, default is 9.
### 3. **RSI Calculation**:
- Calculates a custom RSI value using relative moving averages (`ta.rma`), and optionally uses On-Balance Volume (`ta.obv`) if `indi` is set differently.
- Plots RSI values as a green or red line depending on its position relative to the WMA.
### 4. **Pivot Points**:
- Utilizes the `ta.pivothigh` and `ta.pivotlow` functions to detect pivot highs and lows over the defined period.
- Stores up to 10 recent pivot points for highs and lows.
### 5. **Trend Line Drawing**:
- Lines are drawn based on pivot highs and lows.
- Calculates potential trend lines using linear interpolation and validates them by checking if subsequent bars break or respect the trend.
- If the trend is broken, and `showbroken` is enabled, it draws dotted lines to represent these broken trends.
### 6. **Line Management**:
- Initializes multiple lines (`l1` to `l20` and `t1` to `t20`) and uses these lines for drawing uptrend and downtrend lines.
- The maximum number of lines is set to 20 for uptrends and 20 for downtrends, due to a limit on the total number of lines that can be displayed on the chart.
### 7. **Line Style and Color**:
- Defines different colors for uptrend lines (`ulcolor = color.red`) and downtrend lines (`dlcolor = color.blue`).
- Line styles are determined by user input (`linestyle`) and use either solid or dashed patterns.
- Broken lines use a dotted style to indicate invalidated trends.
### 8. **Pivot Point Plotting**:
- Plots labels "H" and "L" for pivot highs and lows, respectively, to visually indicate turning points on the chart.
### 9. **Utility Functions**:
- Uses helper functions to get the values and positions of the last 10 pivot points, such as `getloval`, `getlopos`, `gethival`, and `gethipos`.
- The script uses custom logic for line placement based on whether the pivots are lower lows or higher highs, with lines adjusted dynamically based on price movement.
### 10. **Plotting and Visuals**:
- The main RSI line is plotted using a color gradient based on its position relative to the WMA.
- Horizontal lines (`hline1` and `hline2`) are used for visual reference at RSI levels of 60 and 40.
- Filled regions between these horizontal lines provide visual cues for potential overbought or oversold zones.
These are the main highlights of the script, which focuses on trend detection, visualization of pivot points, and dynamic line plotting based on price action.
