Heatmap Trailing Stop with Breakouts (Zeiierman)█ Overview
Heatmap Trailing Stop with Breakouts (Zeiierman) is a trend and breakout detection tool that combines dynamic trailing stop logic, Fibonacci-based levels, and a real-time market heatmap into a single, intuitive system.
This indicator is designed to help traders visualize pressure zones, manage stop placement, and identify breakout opportunities supported by contextual price–derived heat. Whether you're trailing trends, detecting reversals, or entering on explosive breakouts — this tool keeps you anchored in structure and sentiment.
It projects adaptive trailing stop levels and calculates Fibonacci extensions from swing-based extremes. These levels are then colored by a market heatmap engine that tracks price interaction intensity — showing where the market is "hot" and likely to respond.
On top of that, it includes breakout signals powered by HTF momentum conditions, trend direction, and heatmap validation — giving you signals only when the context is strong.
█ How It Works
⚪ Trailing Stop Engine
At its core, the script uses an ATR-based trailing stop with trend detection:
ATR Length – Defines volatility smoothing using EMA MA of true range.
Multiplier – Expands/retracts the trailing offset depending on market aggression.
Real-Time Extremum Tracking – Uses local highs/lows to define Fibonacci anchors.
⚪ Fibonacci Projection + Heatmap
With each trend shift, Fibonacci levels are projected from the new swing to the current trailing stop. These include:
Fib 61.8, 78.6, 88.6, and 100% (trailing stop) lines
Heatmap Coloring – Each level'slevel's color is determined by how frequently price has interacted with that level in the recent range (defined by ATR).
Strength Score (1–10) – The number of touches per level is normalized and averaged to create a heatmap ""score"" displayed as a colored bar on the chart.
⚪ Breakout Signal System
This engine detects high-confidence breakout signals using a higher timeframe candle structure:
Bullish Breakout – Strong bullish candle + momentum + trend confirmation + heatmap score threshold.
Bearish Breakout – Strong bearish candle + momentum + trend confirmation + heatmap score threshold.
Cooldown Logic – Prevents signals from clustering too frequently during volatile periods.
█ How to Use
⚪ Trend Following & Trail Stops
Use the Trailing Stop line to manage positions or time entries in line with trend direction. Trailing stop flips are highlighted with dot markers.
⚪ Fibonacci Heat Zones
The projected Fibonacci levels serve as price magnets or support/resistance zones. Watch how price reacts at Fib 61.8/78.6/88.6 levels — especially when they're glowing with high heatmap scores (more glow = more historical touches = stronger significance).
⚪ Breakout Signals
Enable breakout signals when you want to trade breakouts only under strong context. Use the "Heatmap Strength Threshold" to require a minimum score (1–10).
█ Settings
Stop Distance ATR Length – ATR period for volatility smoothing
Stop Distance Multiplier – Adjusts the trailing stop'sstop's distance from price
Heatmap Range ATR Length – Defines how far back the heatmap scans for touches
Number of Heat Levels – Total levels used in the heatmap (more = finer resolution)
Minimum Touches per Level – Defines what counts as a ""hot"" level
Heatmap Strength Threshold – Minimum average heat score (1–10) required for breakouts
Timeframe – HTF source used to evaluate breakout momentum structure

Anomalous Holonomy Field Theory🌌 Anomalous Holonomy Field Theory (AHFT) - Revolutionary Quantum Market Analysis
Where Theoretical Physics Meets Trading Reality
A Groundbreaking Synthesis of Differential Geometry, Quantum Field Theory, and Market Dynamics
🔬 THEORETICAL FOUNDATION - THE MATHEMATICS OF MARKET REALITY
The Anomalous Holonomy Field Theory represents an unprecedented fusion of advanced mathematical physics with practical market analysis. This isn't merely another indicator repackaging old concepts - it's a fundamentally new lens through which to view and understand market structure .
1. HOLONOMY GROUPS (Differential Geometry)
In differential geometry, holonomy measures how vectors change when parallel transported around closed loops in curved space. Applied to markets:
Mathematical Formula:
H = P exp(∮_C A_μ dx^μ)
Where:
P = Path ordering operator
A_μ = Market connection (price-volume gauge field)
C = Closed price path
Market Implementation:
The holonomy calculation measures how price "remembers" its journey through market space. When price returns to a previous level, the holonomy captures what has changed in the market's internal geometry. This reveals:
Hidden curvature in the market manifold
Topological obstructions to arbitrage
Geometric phase accumulated during price cycles
2. ANOMALY DETECTION (Quantum Field Theory)
Drawing from the Adler-Bell-Jackiw anomaly in quantum field theory:
Mathematical Formula:
∂_μ j^μ = (e²/16π²)F_μν F̃^μν
Where:
j^μ = Market current (order flow)
F_μν = Field strength tensor (volatility structure)
F̃^μν = Dual field strength
Market Application:
Anomalies represent symmetry breaking in market structure - moments when normal patterns fail and extraordinary opportunities arise. The system detects:
Spontaneous symmetry breaking (trend reversals)
Vacuum fluctuations (volatility clusters)
Non-perturbative effects (market crashes/melt-ups)
3. GAUGE THEORY (Theoretical Physics)
Markets exhibit gauge invariance - the fundamental physics remains unchanged under certain transformations:
Mathematical Formula:
A'_μ = A_μ + ∂_μΛ
This ensures our signals are gauge-invariant observables , immune to arbitrary market "coordinate changes" like gaps or reference point shifts.
4. TOPOLOGICAL DATA ANALYSIS
Using persistent homology and Morse theory:
Mathematical Formula:
β_k = dim(H_k(X))
Where β_k are the Betti numbers describing topological features that persist across scales.
🎯 REVOLUTIONARY SIGNAL CONFIGURATION
Signal Sensitivity (0.5-12.0, default 2.5)
Controls the responsiveness of holonomy field calculations to market conditions. This parameter directly affects the threshold for detecting quantum phase transitions in price action.
Optimization by Timeframe:

Dynamic Position Sizing:
When enabled, the system scales position size based on:
Holonomy field strength
Current volatility regime
Recent performance metrics
Advanced Exit Management:
Implements trailing stops based on ATR and signal strength, with mode-specific multipliers for optimal profit capture.
🧠 ADAPTIVE INTELLIGENCE ENGINE
Self-Learning System:
The strategy analyzes recent trade outcomes and adjusts:
Risk multipliers based on win/loss ratios
Signal weights according to performance
Market regime detection for environmental adaptation
Learning Speed (0.05-0.3):
Controls adaptation rate. Higher values = faster learning but potentially unstable. Lower values = stable but slower adaptation.
Performance Window (20-100 trades):
Number of recent trades analyzed for adaptation. Longer windows provide stability, shorter windows increase responsiveness.

🏆 WHY THIS CHANGES EVERYTHING
Traditional technical analysis operates on 100-year-old principles - moving averages, support/resistance, and pattern recognition. These work because many traders use them, creating self-fulfilling prophecies.
AHFT transcends this limitation by analyzing markets through the lens of fundamental physics:
Markets have geometry - The holonomy calculations reveal this hidden structure
Price has memory - The geometric phase captures path-dependent effects
Anomalies are predictable - Quantum field theory identifies symmetry breaking
Everything is connected - Gauge theory unifies disparate market phenomena
This isn't just a new indicator - it's a new way of thinking about markets . Just as Einstein's relativity revolutionized physics beyond Newton's mechanics, AHFT revolutionizes technical analysis beyond traditional methods.

💭 THE JOURNEY - FROM IMPOSSIBLE THEORY TO TRADING REALITY
Creating AHFT was a mathematical odyssey that pushed the boundaries of what's possible in Pine Script. The journey began with a seemingly impossible question: Could the profound mathematical structures of theoretical physics be translated into practical trading tools?
The Theoretical Challenge:
Months were spent diving deep into differential geometry textbooks, studying the works of Chern, Simons, and Witten. The mathematics of holonomy groups and gauge theory had never been applied to financial markets. Translating abstract mathematical concepts like parallel transport and fiber bundles into discrete price calculations required novel approaches and countless failed attempts.
The Computational Nightmare:
Pine Script wasn't designed for quantum field theory calculations. Implementing the Wilson loop integral, managing complex array structures for anomaly detection, and maintaining computational efficiency while calculating geometric phases pushed the language to its limits. There were moments when the entire project seemed impossible - the script would timeout, produce nonsensical results, or simply refuse to compile.
The Breakthrough Moments:
After countless sleepless nights and thousands of lines of code, breakthrough came through elegant simplifications. The realization that market anomalies follow patterns similar to quantum vacuum fluctuations led to the revolutionary anomaly detection system. The discovery that price paths exhibit holonomic memory unlocked the geometric phase calculations.
The Visual Revolution:
Creating visualizations that could represent 4-dimensional quantum fields on a 2D chart required innovative approaches. The multi-layer holonomy field, recursive quantum portals, and phase space flow representations went through dozens of iterations before achieving the perfect balance of beauty and functionality.
The Balancing Act:
Perhaps the greatest challenge was maintaining mathematical rigor while ensuring practical trading utility. Every formula had to be both theoretically sound and computationally efficient. Every visual had to be both aesthetically pleasing and information-rich.
The result is more than a strategy - it's a synthesis of pure mathematics and market reality that reveals the hidden order within apparent chaos.
📚 INTEGRATED DOCUMENTATION
Once applied to your chart, AHFT includes comprehensive tooltips on every input parameter. The source code contains detailed explanations of the mathematical theory, practical applications, and optimization guidelines. This published description provides the overview - the indicator itself is a complete educational resource.
⚠️ RISK DISCLAIMER
While AHFT employs advanced mathematical models derived from theoretical physics, markets remain inherently unpredictable. No mathematical model, regardless of sophistication, can guarantee future results. This strategy uses realistic commission ($0.62 per contract) and slippage (1 tick) in all calculations. Past performance does not guarantee future results. Always use appropriate risk management and never risk more than you can afford to lose.
🌟 CONCLUSION
The Anomalous Holonomy Field Theory represents a quantum leap in technical analysis - literally. By applying the profound insights of differential geometry, quantum field theory, and gauge theory to market analysis, AHFT reveals structure and opportunities invisible to traditional methods.
From the holonomy calculations that capture market memory to the anomaly detection that identifies phase transitions, from the adaptive intelligence that learns and evolves to the stunning visualizations that make the invisible visible, every component works in mathematical harmony.
This is more than a trading strategy. It's a new lens through which to view market reality.
Trade with the precision of physics. Trade with the power of mathematics. Trade with AHFT.
I hope this serves as a good replacement for Quantum Edge Pro - Adaptive AI until I'm able to fix it.

DCI### 📌 **DCI – Direction Correlation Index**
#### 🔹 **What It Is**
The **Direction Correlation Index (DCI)** is a tool for measuring how closely a group of up to 10 symbols move together in both *trend correlation* and *short-term direction*. It helps identify whether a group of assets is acting in unison or moving independently.
---
#### ⚙️ **How It Works**
DCI outputs three key metrics:
1. **Average Correlation**
* Measures the average of all pairwise correlations between the selected symbols.
* Prices are first standardized using a z-score (based on simple moving average and standard deviation over a user-defined lookback period).
* Correlation is calculated using Pearson’s method for all 45 symbol pairs.
* Result ranges from:
* `+1.00` = strong positive correlation
* `0.00` = no correlation
* `-1.00` = strong inverse correlation
2. **Direction Agreement %**
* Checks whether each symbol is moving up or down compared to its previous bar.
* Calculates the percentage of symbols moving in the same direction.
* For example: if 7 of 10 symbols are moving up and 3 are moving down, the direction agreement is 70%.
3. **Strong Correlation Count**
* Counts how many of the 45 symbol pairs have an absolute correlation above `0.7`.
* Helps highlight how many pairs are currently highly correlated.
---
#### 📈 **How to Use It**
1. **Select Symbols**
* In the **Settings**, you can input up to 10 custom symbols. These can be stocks, indices, forex pairs, crypto, or any tradable asset.
2. **Adjust the Lookback Period**
* Defines how many bars back are used to calculate z-scores and correlations.
* Default is `12`. Use shorter periods for faster response; longer periods for smoother, slower data.
3. **Interpret the Table (Plotted on Chart)**
* **Avg Corr**: Tells you how much the group is co-moving. High correlation often reflects unified market behavior.
* **Dir Agr %**: Shows directional sync. High values mean most instruments are trending the same way in the current bar.
* **> 0.7**: The number of pairs currently strongly correlated (|corr| > 0.7).
---
#### 🧠 **Practical Usage Tips**
* Use DCI to monitor **sector alignment**, **portfolio behavior**, or **market group momentum**.
* Confirm trend strength by checking if high correlation aligns with a strong direction agreement.
* Low correlation + mixed direction can signal **choppy or indecisive markets**.
* High correlation + strong direction = **trend confirmation** across your selected instruments.

Bear Market Probability Model# Bear Market Probability Model: A Multi-Factor Risk Assessment Framework
The Bear Market Probability Model represents a comprehensive quantitative framework for assessing systemic market risk through the integration of 13 distinct risk factors across four analytical categories: macroeconomic indicators, technical analysis factors, market sentiment measures, and market breadth metrics. This indicator synthesizes established financial research methodologies to provide real-time probabilistic assessments of impending bear market conditions, offering institutional-grade risk management capabilities to retail and professional traders alike.
## Theoretical Foundation
### Historical Context of Bear Market Prediction
Bear market prediction has been a central focus of financial research since the seminal work of Dow (1901) and the subsequent development of technical analysis theory. The challenge of predicting market downturns gained renewed academic attention following the market crashes of 1929, 1987, 2000, and 2008, leading to the development of sophisticated multi-factor models.
Fama and French (1989) demonstrated that certain financial variables possess predictive power for stock returns, particularly during market stress periods. Their three-factor model laid the groundwork for multi-dimensional risk assessment, which this indicator extends through the incorporation of real-time market microstructure data.
### Methodological Framework
The model employs a weighted composite scoring methodology based on the theoretical framework established by Campbell and Shiller (1998) for market valuation assessment, extended through the incorporation of high-frequency sentiment and technical indicators as proposed by Baker and Wurgler (2006) in their seminal work on investor sentiment.
The mathematical foundation follows the general form:
Bear Market Probability = Σ(Wi × Ci) / ΣWi × 100
Where:
- Wi = Category weight (i = 1,2,3,4)
- Ci = Normalized category score
- Categories: Macroeconomic, Technical, Sentiment, Breadth
## Component Analysis
### 1. Macroeconomic Risk Factors
#### Yield Curve Analysis
The inclusion of yield curve inversion as a primary predictor follows extensive research by Estrella and Mishkin (1998), who demonstrated that the term spread between 3-month and 10-year Treasury securities has historically preceded all major recessions since 1969. The model incorporates both the 2Y-10Y and 3M-10Y spreads to capture different aspects of monetary policy expectations.
Implementation:
- 2Y-10Y Spread: Captures market expectations of monetary policy trajectory
- 3M-10Y Spread: Traditional recession predictor with 12-18 month lead time
Scientific Basis: Harvey (1988) and subsequent research by Ang, Piazzesi, and Wei (2006) established the theoretical foundation linking yield curve inversions to economic contractions through the expectations hypothesis of the term structure.
#### Credit Risk Premium Assessment
High-yield credit spreads serve as a real-time gauge of systemic risk, following the methodology established by Gilchrist and Zakrajšek (2012) in their excess bond premium research. The model incorporates the ICE BofA High Yield Master II Option-Adjusted Spread as a proxy for credit market stress.
Threshold Calibration:
- Normal conditions: < 350 basis points
- Elevated risk: 350-500 basis points
- Severe stress: > 500 basis points
#### Currency and Commodity Stress Indicators
The US Dollar Index (DXY) momentum serves as a risk-off indicator, while the Gold-to-Oil ratio captures commodity market stress dynamics. This approach follows the methodology of Akram (2009) and Beckmann, Berger, and Czudaj (2015) in analyzing commodity-currency relationships during market stress.
### 2. Technical Analysis Factors
#### Multi-Timeframe Moving Average Analysis
The technical component incorporates the well-established moving average convergence methodology, drawing from the work of Brock, Lakonishok, and LeBaron (1992), who provided empirical evidence for the profitability of technical trading rules.
Implementation:
- Price relative to 50-day and 200-day simple moving averages
- Moving average convergence/divergence analysis
- Multi-timeframe MACD assessment (daily and weekly)
#### Momentum and Volatility Analysis
The model integrates Relative Strength Index (RSI) analysis following Wilder's (1978) original methodology, combined with maximum drawdown analysis based on the work of Magdon-Ismail and Atiya (2004) on optimal drawdown measurement.
### 3. Market Sentiment Factors
#### Volatility Index Analysis
The VIX component follows the established research of Whaley (2009) and subsequent work by Bekaert and Hoerova (2014) on VIX as a predictor of market stress. The model incorporates both absolute VIX levels and relative VIX spikes compared to the 20-day moving average.
Calibration:
- Low volatility: VIX < 20
- Elevated concern: VIX 20-25
- High fear: VIX > 25
- Panic conditions: VIX > 30
#### Put-Call Ratio Analysis
Options flow analysis through put-call ratios provides insight into sophisticated investor positioning, following the methodology established by Pan and Poteshman (2006) in their analysis of informed trading in options markets.
### 4. Market Breadth Factors
#### Advance-Decline Analysis
Market breadth assessment follows the classic work of Fosback (1976) and subsequent research by Brown and Cliff (2004) on market breadth as a predictor of future returns.
Components:
- Daily advance-decline ratio
- Advance-decline line momentum
- McClellan Oscillator (Ema19 - Ema39 of A-D difference)
#### New Highs-New Lows Analysis
The new highs-new lows ratio serves as a market leadership indicator, based on the research of Zweig (1986) and validated in academic literature by Zarowin (1990).
## Dynamic Threshold Methodology
The model incorporates adaptive thresholds based on rolling volatility and trend analysis, following the methodology established by Pagan and Sossounov (2003) for business cycle dating. This approach allows the model to adjust sensitivity based on prevailing market conditions.
Dynamic Threshold Calculation:
- Warning Level: Base threshold ± (Volatility × 1.0)
- Danger Level: Base threshold ± (Volatility × 1.5)
- Bounds: ±10-20 points from base threshold
## Professional Implementation
### Institutional Usage Patterns
Professional risk managers typically employ multi-factor bear market models in several contexts:
#### 1. Portfolio Risk Management
- Tactical Asset Allocation: Reducing equity exposure when probability exceeds 60-70%
- Hedging Strategies: Implementing protective puts or VIX calls when warning thresholds are breached
- Sector Rotation: Shifting from growth to defensive sectors during elevated risk periods
#### 2. Risk Budgeting
- Value-at-Risk Adjustment: Incorporating bear market probability into VaR calculations
- Stress Testing: Using probability levels to calibrate stress test scenarios
- Capital Requirements: Adjusting regulatory capital based on systemic risk assessment
#### 3. Client Communication
- Risk Reporting: Quantifying market risk for client presentations
- Investment Committee Decisions: Providing objective risk metrics for strategic decisions
- Performance Attribution: Explaining defensive positioning during market stress
### Implementation Framework
Professional traders typically implement such models through:
#### Signal Hierarchy:
1. Probability < 30%: Normal risk positioning
2. Probability 30-50%: Increased hedging, reduced leverage
3. Probability 50-70%: Defensive positioning, cash building
4. Probability > 70%: Maximum defensive posture, short exposure consideration
#### Risk Management Integration:
- Position Sizing: Inverse relationship between probability and position size
- Stop-Loss Adjustment: Tighter stops during elevated risk periods
- Correlation Monitoring: Increased attention to cross-asset correlations
## Strengths and Advantages
### 1. Comprehensive Coverage
The model's primary strength lies in its multi-dimensional approach, avoiding the single-factor bias that has historically plagued market timing models. By incorporating macroeconomic, technical, sentiment, and breadth factors, the model provides robust risk assessment across different market regimes.
### 2. Dynamic Adaptability
The adaptive threshold mechanism allows the model to adjust sensitivity based on prevailing volatility conditions, reducing false signals during low-volatility periods and maintaining sensitivity during high-volatility regimes.
### 3. Real-Time Processing
Unlike traditional academic models that rely on monthly or quarterly data, this indicator processes daily market data, providing timely risk assessment for active portfolio management.
### 4. Transparency and Interpretability
The component-based structure allows users to understand which factors are driving risk assessment, enabling informed decision-making about model signals.
### 5. Historical Validation
Each component has been validated in academic literature, providing theoretical foundation for the model's predictive power.
## Limitations and Weaknesses
### 1. Data Dependencies
The model's effectiveness depends heavily on the availability and quality of real-time economic data. Federal Reserve Economic Data (FRED) updates may have lags that could impact model responsiveness during rapidly evolving market conditions.
### 2. Regime Change Sensitivity
Like most quantitative models, the indicator may struggle during unprecedented market conditions or structural regime changes where historical relationships break down (Taleb, 2007).
### 3. False Signal Risk
Multi-factor models inherently face the challenge of balancing sensitivity with specificity. The model may generate false positive signals during normal market volatility periods.
### 4. Currency and Geographic Bias
The model focuses primarily on US market indicators, potentially limiting its effectiveness for global portfolio management or non-USD denominated assets.
### 5. Correlation Breakdown
During extreme market stress, correlations between risk factors may increase dramatically, reducing the model's diversification benefits (Forbes and Rigobon, 2002).

Impulse Profile Zones [BigBeluga]🔵 OVERVIEW
Impulse Profile Zones is a volume-based tool designed to highlight high-impact candles and visualize hidden liquidity zones inside them using microstructure data. It’s ideal for identifying volume concentration and potential reaction points during impulsive market moves.
Whenever a candle exceeds a specified size threshold, this indicator captures its structure and overlays a detailed intrabar volume profile (from a 10x lower timeframe), allowing traders to analyze the distribution of interest within powerful market impulses.
🔵 CONCEPTS
Filters candles that exceed a user-defined threshold by size.
For qualifying candles, retrieves lower timeframe price and volume data.
Divides the candle’s body into 10 volume bins and calculates the volume per zone. Highlights the bin with the highest volume as the Point of Control (POC) .
Each POC line extends forward until a new impulse is detected.
🔵 FEATURES
Impulse Candle Detection:
Triggers only when a candle’s body size is larger than the defined threshold.
Lower Timeframe Profiling:
Aggregates 10-bin volume data from a lower timeframe (typically 1/10 of current TF).
Volume Distribution Bars:
Each bin displays a stylized bar using unicode block characters (e.g., ▇▇▇, ▇▇ or ▇--).
The bar size reflects the relative volume intensity.
POC Zone Mapping:
The bin with the highest volume is marked with a bold horizontal line.
Its value is labeled and extended until the next valid impulse.
🔵 HOW TO USE
Use large candle profiles to assess which price levels inside a move were most actively traded.
Watch the POC line as a magnet for future price interaction (support/resistance or reaction).
Combine with market structure or order block indicators to identify confluence levels.
Adjust the “Filter Large Candles” input to detect more or fewer events based on volatility.
🔵 CONCLUSION
Impulse Profile Zones is a hybrid microstructure tool that bridges lower timeframe volume with higher timeframe impulse candles. By revealing where most of the volume occurred inside large moves, traders gain a deeper view into hidden liquidity, enabling smarter trade entries and more confident profit-taking zones.
Why EMA Isn't What You Think It IsMany new traders adopt the Exponential Moving Average (EMA) believing it's simply a "better Simple Moving Average (SMA)". This common misconception leads to fundamental misunderstandings about how EMA works and when to use it.
EMA and SMA differ at their core. SMA use a window of finite number of data points, giving equal weight to each data point in the calculation period. This makes SMA a Finite Impulse Response (FIR) filter in signal processing terms. Remember that FIR means that "all that we need is the 'period' number of data points" to calculate the filter value. Anything beyond the given period is not relevant to FIR filters – much like how a security camera with 14-day storage automatically overwrites older footage, making last month's activity completely invisible regardless of how important it might have been.
EMA, however, is an Infinite Impulse Response (IIR) filter. It uses ALL historical data, with each past price having a diminishing - but never zero - influence on the calculated value. This creates an EMA response that extends infinitely into the past—not just for the last N periods. IIR filters cannot be precise if we give them only a 'period' number of data to work on - they will be off-target significantly due to lack of context, like trying to understand Game of Thrones by watching only the final season and wondering why everyone's so upset about that dragon lady going full pyromaniac.
If we only consider a number of data points equal to the EMA's period, we are capturing no more than 86.5% of the total weight of the EMA calculation. Relying on he period window alone (the warm-up period) will provide only 1 - (1 / e^2) weights, which is approximately 1−0.1353 = 0.8647 = 86.5%. That's like claiming you've read a book when you've skipped the first few chapters – technically, you got most of it, but you probably miss some crucial early context.
▶️ What is period in EMA used for?
What does a period parameter really mean for EMA? When we select a 15-period EMA, we're not selecting a window of 15 data points as with an SMA. Instead, we are using that number to calculate a decay factor (α) that determines how quickly older data loses influence in EMA result. Every trader knows EMA calculation: α = 1 / (1+period) – or at least every trader claims to know this while secretly checking the formula when they need it.
Thinking in terms of "period" seriously restricts EMA. The α parameter can be - should be! - any value between 0.0 and 1.0, offering infinite tuning possibilities of the indicator. When we limit ourselves to whole-number periods that we use in FIR indicators, we can only access a small subset of possible IIR calculations – it's like having access to the entire RGB color spectrum with 16.7 million possible colors but stubbornly sticking to the 8 basic crayons in a child's first art set because the coloring book only mentioned those by name.
For example:
Period 10 → alpha = 0.1818
Period 11 → alpha = 0.1667
What about wanting an alpha of 0.17, which might yield superior returns in your strategy that uses EMA? No whole-number period can provide this! Direct α parameterization offers more precision, much like how an analog tuner lets you find the perfect radio frequency while digital presets force you to choose only from predetermined stations, potentially missing the clearest signal sitting right between channels.
Sidenote: the choice of α = 1 / (1+period) is just a convention from 1970s, probably started by J. Welles Wilder, who popularized the use of the 14-day EMA. It was designed to create an approximate equivalence between EMA and SMA over the same number of periods, even thought SMA needs a period window (as it is FIR filter) and EMA doesn't. In reality, the decay factor α in EMA should be allowed any valye between 0.0 and 1.0, not just some discrete values derived from an integer-based period! Algorithmic systems should find the best α decay for EMA directly, allowing the system to fine-tune at will and not through conversion of integer period to float α decay – though this might put a few traditionalist traders into early retirement. Well, to prevent that, most traditionalist implementations of EMA only use period and no alpha at all. Heaven forbid we disturb people who print their charts on paper, draw trendlines with rulers, and insist the market "feels different" since computers do algotrading!
▶️ Calculating EMAs Efficiently
The standard textbook formula for EMA is:
EMA = CurrentPrice × alpha + PreviousEMA × (1 - alpha)
But did you know that a more efficient version exists, once you apply a tiny bit of high school algebra:
EMA = alpha × (CurrentPrice - PreviousEMA) + PreviousEMA
The first one requires three operations: 2 multiplications + 1 addition. The second one also requires three ops: 1 multiplication + 1 addition + 1 subtraction.
That's pathetic, you say? Not worth implementing? In most computational models, multiplications cost much more than additions/subtractions – much like how ordering dessert costs more than asking for a water refill at restaurants.
Relative CPU cost of float operations :
Addition/Subtraction: ~1 cycle
Multiplication: ~5 cycles (depending on precision and architecture)
Now you see the difference? 2 * 5 + 1 = 11 against 5 + 1 + 1 = 7. That is ≈ 36.36% efficiency gain just by swapping formulas around! And making your high school math teacher proud enough to finally put your test on the refrigerator.
▶️ The Warmup Problem: how to start the EMA sequence right
How do we calculate the first EMA value when there's no previous EMA available? Let's see some possible options used throughout the history:
Start with zero : EMA(0) = 0. This creates stupidly large distortion until enough bars pass for the horrible effect to diminish – like starting a trading account with zero balance but backdating a year of missed trades, then watching your balance struggle to climb out of a phantom debt for months.
Start with first price : EMA(0) = first price. This is better than starting with zero, but still causes initial distortion that will be extra-bad if the first price is an outlier – like forming your entire opinion of a stock based solely on its IPO day price, then wondering why your model is tanking for weeks afterward.
Use SMA for warmup : This is the tradition from the pencil-and-paper era of technical analysis – when calculators were luxury items and "algorithmic trading" meant your broker had neat handwriting. We first calculate an SMA over the initial period, then kickstart the EMA with this average value. It's widely used due to tradition, not merit, creating a mathematical Frankenstein that uses an FIR filter (SMA) during the initial period before abruptly switching to an IIR filter (EMA). This methodology is so aesthetically offensive (abrupt kink on the transition from SMA to EMA) that charting platforms hide these early values entirely, pretending EMA simply doesn't exist until the warmup period passes – the technical analysis equivalent of sweeping dust under the rug.
Use WMA for warmup : This one was never popular because it is harder to calculate with a pencil - compared to using simple SMA for warmup. Weighted Moving Average provides a much better approximation of a starting value as its linear descending profile is much closer to the EMA's decay profile.
These methods all share one problem: they produce inaccurate initial values that traders often hide or discard, much like how hedge funds conveniently report awesome performance "since strategy inception" only after their disastrous first quarter has been surgically removed from the track record.
▶️ A Better Way to start EMA: Decaying compensation
Think of it this way: An ideal EMA uses an infinite history of prices, but we only have data starting from a specific point. This creates a problem - our EMA starts with an incorrect assumption that all previous prices were all zero, all close, or all average – like trying to write someone's biography but only having information about their life since last Tuesday.
But there is a better way. It requires more than high school math comprehension and is more computationally intensive, but is mathematically correct and numerically stable. This approach involves compensating calculated EMA values for the "phantom data" that would have existed before our first price point.
Here's how phantom data compensation works:
We start our normal EMA calculation:
EMA_today = EMA_yesterday + α × (Price_today - EMA_yesterday)
But we add a correction factor that adjusts for the missing history:
Correction = 1 at the start
Correction = Correction × (1-α) after each calculation
We then apply this correction:
True_EMA = Raw_EMA / (1-Correction)
This correction factor starts at 1 (full compensation effect) and gets exponentially smaller with each new price bar. After enough data points, the correction becomes so small (i.e., below 0.0000000001) that we can stop applying it as it is no longer relevant.
Let's see how this works in practice:
For the first price bar:
Raw_EMA = 0
Correction = 1
True_EMA = Price (since 0 ÷ (1-1) is undefined, we use the first price)
For the second price bar:
Raw_EMA = α × (Price_2 - 0) + 0 = α × Price_2
Correction = 1 × (1-α) = (1-α)
True_EMA = α × Price_2 ÷ (1-(1-α)) = Price_2
For the third price bar:
Raw_EMA updates using the standard formula
Correction = (1-α) × (1-α) = (1-α)²
True_EMA = Raw_EMA ÷ (1-(1-α)²)
With each new price, the correction factor shrinks exponentially. After about -log₁₀(1e-10)/log₁₀(1-α) bars, the correction becomes negligible, and our EMA calculation matches what we would get if we had infinite historical data.
This approach provides accurate EMA values from the very first calculation. There's no need to use SMA for warmup or discard early values before output converges - EMA is mathematically correct from first value, ready to party without the awkward warmup phase.
Here is Pine Script 6 implementation of EMA that can take alpha parameter directly (or period if desired), returns valid values from the start, is resilient to dirty input values, uses decaying compensator instead of SMA, and uses the least amount of computational cycles possible.
// Enhanced EMA function with proper initialization and efficient calculation
ema(series float source, simple int period=0, simple float alpha=0)=>
// Input validation - one of alpha or period must be provided
if alpha<=0 and period<=0
runtime.error("Alpha or period must be provided")
// Calculate alpha from period if alpha not directly specified
float a = alpha > 0 ? alpha : 2.0 / math.max(period, 1)
// Initialize variables for EMA calculation
var float ema = na // Stores raw EMA value
var float result = na // Stores final corrected EMA
var float e = 1.0 // Decay compensation factor
var bool warmup = true // Flag for warmup phase
if not na(source)
if na(ema)
// First value case - initialize EMA to zero
// (we'll correct this immediately with the compensation)
ema := 0
result := source
else
// Standard EMA calculation (optimized formula)
ema := a * (source - ema) + ema
if warmup
// During warmup phase, apply decay compensation
e *= (1-a) // Update decay factor
float c = 1.0 / (1.0 - e) // Calculate correction multiplier
result := c * ema // Apply correction
// Stop warmup phase when correction becomes negligible
if e <= 1e-10
warmup := false
else
// After warmup, EMA operates without correction
result := ema
result // Return the properly compensated EMA value
▶️ CONCLUSION
EMA isn't just a "better SMA"—it is a fundamentally different tool, like how a submarine differs from a sailboat – both float, but the similarities end there. EMA responds to inputs differently, weighs historical data differently, and requires different initialization techniques.
By understanding these differences, traders can make more informed decisions about when and how to use EMA in trading strategies. And as EMA is embedded in so many other complex and compound indicators and strategies, if system uses tainted and inferior EMA calculatiomn, it is doing a disservice to all derivative indicators too – like building a skyscraper on a foundation of Jell-O.
The next time you add an EMA to your chart, remember: you're not just looking at a "faster moving average." You're using an INFINITE IMPULSE RESPONSE filter that carries the echo of all previous price actions, properly weighted to help make better trading decisions.
EMA done right might significantly improve the quality of all signals, strategies, and trades that rely on EMA somewhere deep in its algorithmic bowels – proving once again that math skills are indeed useful after high school, no matter what your guidance counselor told you.

Average Daily LiquidityIt is important to have sufficient daily trading value (liquidity) to ensure you can easily enter and, importantly, exit the trade. This indicator allows you to see if the traded value of a stock is adequate. The default average is 10 periods and it is common to average the daily traded value as both price and volume can have spikes causing trading errors. Some investors use a 5 period for a week, 10 period for 2 weeks, 20 or 21 period for 4 weeks/month and 65 periods for a quarter. You need to ascertain your buying amount such as $10000 and then have the average daily trading value be your comfortable moving average more such as average liquidity is more than 10 x MA(close x volume) or $100000 in this example. The value is extremely important for small and micro cap stocks you may wish to purchase.
ETF Builder & Backtest System [TradeDots]Create, analyze, and monitor your own custom “ETF-like” portfolio directly on TradingView. This script merges up to 10 different assets with user-defined weightings into a single composite chart, allowing you to see how your personalized portfolio would have performed historically. It is an original tool designed to help traders and investors quickly gauge risk and return profiles without leaving the TradingView platform.
📝 HOW IT WORKS
1. Custom Portfolio Construction
Multiple Assets : Combine up to 10 different stocks, ETFs, cryptocurrencies, or other symbols.
User-Defined Weights : Allocate each asset a percentage weight (e.g., 15% in AAPL, 10% in MSFT, etc.).
Single Composite Value : The script calculates a weighted “ETF-style” price, effectively simulating a merged portfolio curve on your chart.
2. Performance Tracking & Return Analysis
Automatic History Capture : The indicator records each asset’s starting price when it first appears in your chosen date range.
Rolling Updates : As time progresses, all asset prices are continually evaluated and the portfolio value is updated in real time.
Buy & Hold Returns : See how each asset—and the overall portfolio—performed from the “start” date to the most recent bar.
Annualized Return : Automatically calculates CAGR (Compound Annual Growth Rate) to help visualize performance over varying timescales.
3. Table & Visual Output
Performance Table : A comprehensive table displays individual asset returns, annualized returns, and portfolio totals.
Normalized Chart Plot : The composite ETF value is scaled to 100 at the start date, making it easy to compare relative growth or decline.
Optional Time Filter : You can define a specific date range (Start/End Dates) to focus on a particular period or to limit historical data.
⚙️ KEY FEATURES
1. Flexible Asset Selection
Choose any symbols from multiple asset classes. The script will only run calculations when data is available—no need to worry about missing quotes.
2. Dynamic Table Reporting
Start Price for each asset
Percentage Weight in the portfolio
Total Return (%) and Annualized Return (%)
3. Simple Backtesting Logic
This script takes a straightforward Buy & Hold perspective. Once the start date is reached, the portfolio remains static until the end date, so you can quickly assess hypothetical growth.
4. Plot Customization
Toggle the main “ETF” plot on/off.
Alter the visual style for tables and text.
Adjust the time filter to limit or extend your performance measurement window.
🚀 HOW TO USE IT
1. Add the Script
Search for “ETF Builder & Backtest System ” in the Indicators & Strategies tab or manually add it to your chart after saving it in your Pine Editor.
2. Configure Inputs
Enable Time Filter : Choose whether to restrict the analysis to a particular date range.
Start & End Date : Define the period you want to measure performance over (e.g., from 2019-12-31 to 2025-01-01).
Assets & Weights : Enter each symbol and specify a percentage weight (up to 10 assets).
Display Options : Pick where you want the Table to appear and choose background/text colors.
3. Interpret the Table & Plots
Asset Rows : Each asset’s ticker, weighting, start price, and performance metrics.
ETF Total Row : Summarizes total weighting, composite starting value, and overall returns.
Normalized Plot : Tracks growth/decline of the combined portfolio, starting at 100 on the chart.
4. Refine Your Strategy
Compare how different weights or a new mix of assets would have performed over the same period.
Assess if certain assets contribute disproportionately to your returns or volatility.
Use the results to guide allocations in your real trading or paper trading accounts.
❗️LIMITATIONS
1. Buy & Hold Only
This script does not handle rebalancing or partial divestments. Once the portfolio starts, weights remain fixed throughout the chosen timeframe.
2. No Reinvestment Tracking
Dividends or other distributions are not factored into performance.
3. Data Availability
If historical data for a particular asset is unavailable on TradingView, related results may display as “N/A.”
4. Market Regimes & Volatility
Past performance does not guarantee similar future behavior. Markets can change rapidly, which may render historical backtests less predictive over time.

Compression Patterns (w/ Trend + Proximity Filter)🧠 Description:
This indicator identifies high-probability price compression patterns within trending environments — a setup prized by experienced swing and day traders alike. It combines the classic NR4, NR7, 2-Bar NR, 3-Bar NR, and Inside Day formations with a powerful trend filter and proximity logic to deliver clear, focused signals.
🔍 What's Inside:
▪️ Compression Patterns
The core of this tool lies in the logic of price compression. These patterns signal the market taking a breath — volatility contracts, volume dries up, and price coils like a spring.
When this happens in the right context, the next move is often explosive.
NR4 / NR7: Narrowest range in 4 or 7 bars — excellent for spotting the quiet before the storm.
2-Bar NR / 3-Bar NR: These identify the tightest consecutive 2 or 3-day ranges over the past 20 days — contextually rare and powerful.
Inside Day: A simple but highly effective consolidation pattern, especially when it clusters around key moving averages.
▪️ Trend Filter (EMA Stack)
You could say this is where most indicators fall apart — no context.
This one doesn’t make that mistake.
Signals only fire when the 10 EMA > 20 EMA > 50 EMA, and price is above the 20 EMA. That’s a strong, established uptrend — the only environment where breakouts are statistically favourable.
Why?
Because trend following works.
It may not give you fixed daily returns, but it’s the only strategy with theoretically infinite profit potential. You risk little, trade less, and position yourself for rare but massive moves. That’s the edge.
▪️ Proximity Filter (1 ATR to EMA)
We’ve added another layer of discipline. Signals only fire when price is:
Within 1 ATR of the 10 EMA (if price is above it), or
Within 1 ATR of the 20 EMA (if price is below the 10 EMA)
This ensures you’re not chasing. You’re waiting for tight, controlled pullbacks into dynamic support — exactly where institutions add size, not exit.
⚙️ Fully Customisable:
Toggle visibility of each pattern
Custom colours and transparency for label & background
Adjustable ATR length and multiplier
Change label text if needed (useful for translations or tweaks)
🎯 Ideal Use Case:
Swing trading off the daily chart
Day trading with VWAP/MACD filters (in alternate versions)
Supplementing price action strategies
🔚 Final Word:
This isn’t an “everything scanner.”
It’s a discerning sniper scope for traders who wait patiently for clean trends, tight consolidations, and perfect proximity — then strike.
SMC Entry Signals MTF v2📘 User Guide for the SMC Entry Signals MTF v2 Indicator
🎯 Purpose of the Indicator
This indicator is designed to identify reversal entry points based on Smart Money Concepts (SMC) and candlestick confirmation. It’s especially useful for traders who use:
Imbalance zones, order blocks, breaker blocks
Liquidity grabs
Multi-timeframe confirmation (MTF)
📈 How to Use the Signals on the Chart
✅ LONG Signal (green triangle below the candle):
Conditions:
Price is in a discount zone (below the FIB 50% level)
A bullish engulfing candle appears
A bullish Order Block (OB) or Breaker Block is detected
There’s an upward imbalance
A bullish OB is confirmed on the higher timeframe
➡️ How to act:
Consider entering long on the current or next candle.
Place your stop-loss below the OB or the nearest swing low.
Take profit at the nearest liquidity zone or premium area (above FIB 50%).
🔻 SHORT Signal (red triangle above the candle):
Conditions:
Price is in a premium zone (above FIB 50%)
A bearish engulfing candle appears
A bearish OB or Breaker Block is detected
There’s a downward imbalance
A bearish OB is confirmed on the higher timeframe
➡️ How to act:
Consider short entry after the signal.
Place your stop-loss above the OB or swing high.
Target the discount zone or the next liquidity pocket.
⚙️ Recommended Settings by Trading Style
Trading Style Suggested Settings Notes
Intraday (1–15m) fibLookback = 20–50, obLookback = 5–10, htf_tf = 1H/4H Fast signals. Use Discount/Premium + Engulfing.
Swing/Position (1H–1D) fibLookback = 50–100, obLookback = 10–20, htf_tf = 1D/1W Higher trust in MTF confirmation. Ideal with fundamentals.
Scalping (1m) fibLookback = 10–20, obLookback = 3–5, htf_tf = 15m/1H Remove Breaker and MTF for quick reaction trades.
🧠 Best Practices for Traders
Trend Filtering:
Use EMAs or volume to confirm the current trend.
Take longs only in uptrends, shorts in downtrends.
Liquidity Zones:
Use this indicator after liquidity grabs.
OBs and Breakers often appear right after stop hunts.
Combine with Manual Zones:
This works best when paired with manually drawn OBs and key levels.
Backtest the Signals:
Use Bar Replay mode on TradingView to test past signals.
🧪 Example Trade Setup
Example on BTCUSDT 15m:
Price drops into the discount zone.
A green triangle appears (bullish engulfing + OB + imbalance + HTF OB).
You enter long, stop below the OB, target the premium zone.
🎯 This type of setup often gives a risk/reward ratio of 1:2 or better — profitable even with a 40% win rate.
⏰ Alerts & Automation
Enable alerts:
"SMC Long Entry" — fires when a long signal appears.
"SMC Short Entry" — fires when a short signal appears.
You can integrate this with bots via webhook, like:
TradingConnector, 3Commas, Alertatron, etc.

5ma + O’Neil & Minervini Buy ConditionIndicator Overview
5ma + O’Neil & Minervini Buy Condition is an original TradingView indicator that extends beyond a simple collection of standard moving averages by offering:
- Five Fully Independent Lines : Each of MA1–MA5 can be configured as SMA, EMA, WMA, or VWMA with its own period and data source. This level of customization unlocks unique combinations no existing script provides.
- Synergy of Multiple Timeframes : Default settings (10, 21, 50, 200, 325) reflect ultra‑short, short, medium, long, and volume‑weighted long‑term perspectives. The layered structure functions as a multi‑filter, sharpening entry signals and trend confirmation beyond any single MA.
- Integrated Buy Conditions : Built‑in O’Neil and Minervini buy filters use fixed SMA‑based rules (50 & 200 SMA rising within 15% of 52‑week high; 10 > 21 > 50 SMA rising within high/low thresholds), plus a combined condition highlighting when both methods align.
- Clean Visualization & Style Controls : Background coloring for each buy condition appears only in the Style tab under clearly named parameters (O’Neil Buy Condition, Minervini Buy Condition, Both Conditions). MA lines support transparent default colors and customizable line width for optimal readability without clutter.
Calculation & Logic
SMA: (P₁ + P₂ + … + Pₙ) ÷ N
EMA: α = 2 ÷ (N + 1)
EMA_today = (Price_today – EMA_yesterday) × α + EMA_yesterday
WMA: (P₁×N + P₂×(N–1) + … + Pₙ×1) ÷
VWMA: Σ(Pᵢ×Vᵢ) ÷ Σ(Vᵢ) for i = 1…N
```
Buy Condition Logic
- O’Neil: Price > 50 SMA & 200 SMA (both rising) **and** within 15% of the 52‑week high.
- Minervini : 10 SMA > 21 SMA > 50 SMA (both short‑term SMAs rising) **and** within 25% of the 52‑week high **and** at least 25% above the 52‑week low.

FEATURES
Advanced Calculation Methods: Utilizes complex algorithms to compute the Relative Strength Value (RSV) over specific periods, providing a nuanced view of price movements.
Default Period: 27 bars for initial RSV calculation.
Additional Period: 36 bars for extended RSV analysis.
Dual-Oscillator Components:
Component A: Derived using multiple layers of Simple Moving Averages (SMAs) applied to the RSV, offering a smoothed representation of short-term momentum.
Component B: Employs a unique averaging method tailored to capture medium-term trends effectively.
Dynamic Gradient Color Scheme: Enhances visualization through a spectrum of colors that change dynamically based on the calculated values, making trend identification intuitive and engaging 🌈.
Customizable Horizontal Reference Lines: Key levels are marked at 0, 10, 50, and 90 to serve as benchmarks for assessing the oscillator's readings, helping traders make informed decisions quickly.
Comprehensive Visual Representation: Combines the strengths of both components into a single, gradient-colored candlestick plot, providing a holistic view of market sentiment and momentum shifts 📊.
HOW TO USE
Adding the Indicator: Start by adding the L3 Dark Horse Oscillator to your TradingView chart via the indicators menu. This will overlay the necessary plots directly onto your price chart.
Interpreting the Components: Familiarize yourself with the two primary components represented by yellow and fuchsia lines. These lines indicate the underlying momentum derived from the RSV calculations.
Monitoring Momentum Shifts: Pay close attention to the gradient-colored candlesticks, which reflect the combined strength of both components. Notice how these candles transition through various shades, signaling changes in market dynamics.
Utilizing Reference Levels: Leverage the horizontal lines at 0, 10, 50, and 90 as critical thresholds. For instance, values above 50 might suggest bullish conditions, while those below could hint at bearish tendencies.
Combining with Other Tools: To enhance reliability, integrate this indicator with complementary technical analyses such as moving averages, volume profiles, or other oscillators like RSI or MACD.
LIMITATIONS

Divergence Analysis: Compare the oscillator's behavior with price action to spot divergences, which often precede trend reversals. Bullish divergence occurs when prices make lower lows but the oscillator shows higher lows, suggesting upward momentum.
[Kpt-Ahab] PnL-calculatorThe PnL-Cal shows how much you’re up or down in your own currency, based on the current exchange rate.
Let’s say your home currency is EUR.
On October 10, 2022, you bought 10 Tesla stocks at $219 apiece.
Back then, with an exchange rate of 0.9701, you spent €2,257.40.
If you sold the 10 Tesla shares on April 17, 2025 for $241.37 each, that’s around a 10% gain in USD.
But if you converted the USD back to EUR on the same day at an exchange rate of 1.1398, you’d actually end up with an overall loss of about 6.2%.
Right now, only a single entry point is supported.
If you bought shares on different days with different exchange rates, you’ll unfortunately have to enter an average for now.

3M-10Y Yield Spread3M-10Y Yield Spread Indicator Description
What It Is:
This indicator calculates the difference (spread) between the 3-month and 10-year US Treasury yields, plotted as a line with a zero reference. The background turns red when the spread inverts (falls below zero), signaling when the 3-month yield exceeds the 10-year yield.
What It Helps Understand:
Economic Health: An inverted yield curve (spread < 0) often predicts recessions, as it reflects market expectations of future economic slowdown, typically preceding downturns by 6-18 months.
Fed Policy Impact: Fed rate hikes can push short-term yields (like the 3-month) higher, potentially causing inversion if long-term yields (10-year) don’t rise as much due to growth concerns. Conversely, Fed rate cuts can lower short-term yields, steepening the curve (spread > 0), signaling economic stimulus or recovery expectations.

Constance Brown RSI with Composite IndexConstance Brown RSI with Composite Index
Overview
This indicator combines Constance Brown's RSI interpretation methodology with a Composite Index and ATR Distance to VWAP measurement to provide a comprehensive trading tool. It helps identify trends, momentum shifts, overbought/oversold conditions, and potential reversal points.
Key Features
Color-coded RSI zones for immediate trend identification
Composite Index for momentum analysis and divergence detection
ATR Distance to VWAP for identifying extreme price deviations
Automatic divergence detection for early reversal warnings
Pre-configured alerts for key trading signals
How to Use This Indicator
Trend Identification
The RSI line changes color based on its position:
Blue zone (RSI > 50): Bullish trend - look for buying opportunities
Purple zone (RSI < 50): Bearish trend - look for selling opportunities
Gray zone (RSI 40-60): Neutral/transitional market - prepare for potential breakout
The 40-50 area (light blue fill) acts as support during uptrends, while the 50-60 area (light purple fill) acts as resistance during downtrends.
// From the code:
upTrendZone = rsiValue > 50 and rsiValue <= 90
downTrendZone = rsiValue < 50 and rsiValue >= 10
neutralZone = rsiValue > 40 and rsiValue < 60
rsiColor = neutralZone ? neutralRSI : upTrendZone ? upTrendRSI : downTrendRSI
Momentum Analysis
The Composite Index (fuchsia line) provides momentum confirmation:
Values above 50 indicate positive momentum
Values below 40 indicate negative momentum
Crossing above/below these thresholds signals potential momentum shifts
// From the code:
compositeIndexRaw = rsiChange / ta.stdev(rsiValue, rsiLength)
compositeIndex = ta.sma(compositeIndexRaw, compositeSmoothing)
compositeScaled = compositeIndex * 10 + 50 // Scaled to fit 0-100 range
Overbought/Oversold Detection
The ATR Distance to VWAP table in the top-right corner shows how far price has moved from VWAP in terms of ATR units:
Extreme positive values (orange/red): Potentially overbought
Extreme negative values (purple/red): Potentially oversold
Near zero (gray): Price near average value
// From the code:
priceDistance = (close - vwapValue) / ta.atr(atrPeriod)
// Color coding based on distance value
Divergence Trading
The indicator automatically detects divergences between the Composite Index and price:
Bullish divergence: Price makes lower low but Composite Index makes higher low
Bearish divergence: Price makes higher high but Composite Index makes lower high
// From the code:
divergenceBullish = ta.lowest(compositeIndex, rsiLength) > ta.lowest(close, rsiLength)
divergenceBearish = ta.highest(compositeIndex, rsiLength) < ta.highest(close, rsiLength)
Trading Strategies
Trend Following
1. Identify the trend using RSI color:
Blue = Uptrend, Purple = Downtrend
2. Wait for pullbacks to support/resistance zones:
In uptrends: Buy when RSI pulls back to 40-50 zone and bounces
In downtrends: Sell when RSI rallies to 50-60 zone and rejects
3. Confirm with Composite Index:
Uptrends: Composite Index stays above 50 or quickly returns above it
Downtrends: Composite Index stays below 50 or quickly returns below it
4. Manage risk using ATR Distance:
Take profits when ATR Distance reaches extreme values
Place stops beyond recent swing points
Reversal Trading
1. Look for divergences
Bullish: Price makes lower low but Composite Index makes higher low
Bearish: Price makes higher high but Composite Index makes lower high
2. Confirm with ATR Distance:
Extreme readings suggest potential reversals
3. Wait for RSI zone transition:
Bullish: RSI crosses above 40 (purple to neutral/blue)
Bearish: RSI crosses below 60 (blue to neutral/purple)
4. Enter after confirmation:
Use candlestick patterns for precise entry
Place stops beyond the divergence point
Four pre-configured alerts are available:
Momentum High: Composite Index above 50
Momentum Low: Composite Index below 40
Bullish Divergence: Composite Index higher low
Bearish Divergence: Composite Index lower high
Customization
Adjust these parameters to optimize for your trading style:
RSI Length: Default 14, lower for more sensitivity, higher for fewer signals
Composite Index Smoothing: Default 10, lower for quicker signals, higher for less noise
ATR Period: Default 14, affects the ATR Distance to VWAP calculation
This indicator works well across various markets and timeframes, though the default settings are optimized for daily charts. Adjust parameters for shorter or longer timeframes as needed.
Happy trading!
