Momentum Long + Short Strategy (BTC 3H)Momentum Long + Short Strategy (BTC 3H)
🔍 How It Works, Step by Step
Detect the Trend (📈/📉)
Calculate two moving averages (100-period and 500-period), either EMA or SMA.
For longs, we require MA100 > MA500 (uptrend).
For shorts, we block entries if MA100 exceeds MA500 by more than a set percentage (to avoid fading a powerful uptrend).
Apply Momentum Filters (⚡️)
RSI Filter: Measures recent strength—only allow longs when RSI crosses above its smoothed average, and shorts when RSI dips below the oversold threshold.
ADX Filter: Gauges trend strength—ensures we only enter when a meaningful trend exists (optional).
ATR Filter: Confirms volatility—avoids choppy, low-volatility conditions by requiring ATR to exceed its smoothed value (optional).
Confirm Entry Conditions (✅)
Long Entry:
Price is above both MAs
Trend alignment & optional filters pass ✅
Short Entry:
Price is below both MAs and below the lower Bollinger Band
RSI is sufficiently oversold
Trend-blocker & ATR filter pass ✅
Position Sizing & Risk (💰)
Each trade uses 100 % of account equity by default.
One pyramid addition allowed, so you can scale in if the move continues.
Commission and slippage assumptions built in for realistic backtests.
Stops & Exits (🛑)
Long Stop-Loss: e.g. 3 % below entry.
Long Auto-Exit: If price falls back under the 500-period MA.
Short Stop-Loss: e.g. 3 % above entry.
Short Take-Profit: e.g. 4 % below entry.
🎨 Why It’s Powerful & Customizable
Modular Filters: Turn on/off RSI, ADX, ATR filters to suit different market regimes.
Adjustable Thresholds: Fine-tune stop-loss %, take-profit %, RSI lengths, MA gaps and more.
Multi-Timeframe Potential: Although coded for 3 h BTC, you can adapt it to stocks, forex or other cryptos—just recalibrate!
Backtest Fine-Tuned: Default settings were optimized via backtesting on historical BTC data—but they’re not guarantees of future performance.
⚠️ Warning & Disclaimer
This strategy is for educational purposes only and designed for a toy fund. Crypto markets are highly volatile—you can lose 100 % of your capital. It is not a predictive “holy grail” but a rules-based framework using past data. The parameters have been fine-tuned on historical data and are not valid for future trades without fresh calibration. Always practice with paper-trading first, use proper risk management, and do your own research before risking real money. 🚨🔒

Clustering Volatility (ATR-ADR-ChaikinVol) [Sam SDF-Solutions]The Clustering Volatility indicator is designed to evaluate market volatility by combining three widely used measures: Average True Range (ATR), Average Daily Range (ADR), and the Chaikin Oscillator.
Each indicator is normalized using one of the available methods (MinMax, Rank, or Z-score) to create a unified metric called the Score. This Score is further smoothed with an Exponential Moving Average (EMA) to reduce noise and provide a clearer view of market conditions.
Key Features:
Multi-Indicator Integration: Combines ATR, ADR, and the Chaikin Oscillator into a single Score that reflects overall market volatility.
Flexible Normalization: (Supports three normalization methods)
MinMax: Scales values between the observed minimum and maximum.
Rank: Normalizes based on the relative rank within a moving window.
Z-score: Standardizes values using mean and standard deviation.
Dynamic Window Selection: Offers an automatic window selection option based on a specified lookback period, or a fixed window size can be used.
Customizable Weights: Allows the user to assign individual weights to ATR, ADR, and the Chaikin Oscillator. Optionally, weights can be normalized to sum to 1.
Score Smoothing: Applies an EMA to the computed Score to smooth out short-term fluctuations and reduce market noise.
Cluster Visualization: Divides the smoothed Score into a number of clusters, each represented by a distinct color. These colors can be applied to the price bars (if enabled) for an immediate visual indication of the current volatility regime.
How It Works:
Input & Window Setup: Users set parameters for indicator periods, normalization methods, weights, and window size. The indicator can automatically determine the analysis window based on the number of lookback days.
Calculation of Metrics: The indicator computes the ATR, ADR (as the average of bar ranges), and the Chaikin Oscillator (based on the difference between short and long EMAs of the Accumulation/Distribution line).
Normalization & Scoring: Each indicator’s value is normalized and then weighted to form a raw Score. This raw Score is scaled to a range using statistics from the chosen window.
Smoothing & Clustering: The raw Score is smoothed using an EMA. The resulting smoothed Score is then multiplied by the number of clusters to assign a cluster index, which is used to choose a color for visual signals.
Visualization: The smoothed Score is plotted on the chart with a color that changes based on its value (e.g., lime for low, red for high, yellow for intermediate values). Optionally, the price bars are colored according to the assigned cluster.
_____________
This indicator is ideal for traders seeking a quick and clear assessment of market volatility. By integrating multiple volatility measures into one comprehensive Score, it simplifies analysis and aids in making more informed trading decisions.

ORB with ATR Trailing SL [Bluechip Algos]This is a simple ORB (Opening Range Breakout) Indicator that not only signals breakout directions based on the opening session range but also includes trailing stop levels to manage ongoing trades. Instead of regular fixed Stop loss, we use ATR indicator (ATR based SL) to trail the stop loss that might help in maximizing the profitable trades. This helps especially during the trending days where market moves unidirectionally.
About the Indicator
Opening Range Identification: The indicator defines an initial session timeframe and captures the highest and lowest prices during this period.
Breakout Signals: It signals potential entry points when the price crosses these range boundaries.
Trailing Stop Calculation: Customizable trailing stop-loss based on ATR percentage, helping users lock in profits.
Features
Session Customization: User-defined session for setting the opening range.
Entry Signal Customization: Allows configuration for breakouts on either a closing basis or upon touching the level.
Automatic Stop-Loss Adjustments: Dynamic trailing stop levels that adapt to both long and short entries.
Visual Display: Highlights breakout levels and plots lines representing stop-loss levels.
Understanding the Indicator
Range Calculation: After defining the session, the high and low of the session are locked. The high serves as the upper breakout boundary, and the low as the lower boundary.
Signals (Buy and Sell): The indicator uses crossover conditions:
Buy Signal ("B") when price crosses above the ORB high.
Sell Signal ("S") when price crosses below the ORB low.
Trail Stop Calculation: When a signal is triggered, a trailing stop level is set and updates as the trade progresses:
Long positions have a stop-loss based on a percentage below the last closing price.
Short positions have a stop-loss based on a percentage above the last closing price.
Input Parameters
Session Time (ORB Session Time): Start and end times for setting the ORB range.
Signal Configuration: Choice between "CLOSE" (signal on close) or "TOUCH" (signal as soon as level is touched).
ATR Percentage: Sets the percentage for the trailing stop calculation.
Dynamic RSI Mean Reversion StrategyDynamic RSI Mean Reversion Strategy
Overview:
This strategy uses an RSI with ATR-Adjusted OB/OS levels in order to enhance the quality of it's mean reversion trades. It also incorporates a form of trend filtering in an effort to minimize downside and maximize upside. The backtest has fewer trades, as it uses substantial filtering to enhance trade quality. As you can see, I didn't cherry pick the results, so the results aren't the most beautiful thing you'll see in your life. I did this to ensure nobody gets misled. If you need a higher frequency of trades, consider removing the trend filter or increasing the length of the EMAs used for trend detection.
Features:
Dynamic OB/OS Levels: Uses ATR to adjust overbought and oversold thresholds dynamically, making the RSI more responsive in varying volatility conditions. This approach enhances signal strength by expanding the RSI range in high volatility and tightening it in low volatility.
Mean Reversion Focus: Designed for mean reversion but incorporates a trend-following filter to reduce countertrend trades. When the RSI is high, it often indicates an uptrend, so a trend filter prevents shorting in these cases and the same goes for downtrends and longing.
Trend Filtering: A moving average cross trend filter checks for the trend direction, with the RSI signal line color-coded to reflect trend shifts. Entries occur when the RSI crosses above or below the dynamic thresholds and is not a countertrend trade.
Stop Losses: Stop losses are set based on ATR distance from the entry price, providing volatility-adjusted protection.
Note:
If you're using this strategy on assets with a higher price, remember to increase the initial capital in the strategy settings. Otherwise, the strategy won't generate any (or many) trades and you'll end up with some inaccurate results.
Recommended Use:
Test it on different assets and timeframes. I’ve found the best results with standard RSI inputs, a relatively slow ATR, and a slower MA cross for trend filtering. Thus, the defaults are set that way. If the trend metrics are too slow, you’ll filter out too many good trades while allowing crummy ones; if too fast, most trades may be filtered out. As always, this has a lot of configurability so experiment to find the balance that works for your trading style.
Uptrick: MultiTrend Squeeze System**Uptrick: MultiTrend Squeeze System Indicator: The Ultimate Trading Tool for Precision and Versatility 📈🔥**
### Introduction
The MultiTrend Squeeze System is a powerful, multi-faceted trading indicator designed to provide traders with precise buy and sell signals by combining the strengths of multiple technical analysis tools.

Whether you're a day trader looking for short-term opportunities or a swing trader aiming to catch longer-term trends, this indicator is tailored to meet your needs.
### Key Features and Unique Aspects
1. **SuperTrend with Dynamic Adjustments 📊**
- **Adaptive SuperTrend Calculation:** The SuperTrend is a popular trend-following indicator that adjusts dynamically based on market conditions. It uses the Average True Range (ATR) to calculate upper and lower bands, which shift according to market volatility. This script takes it further by combining it with the RSI and Volume filtering to provide more accurate signals.
- **Direction Sensitivity:** The SuperTrend here is not static. It adjusts based on the direction of the previous SuperTrend value, ensuring that the indicator remains relevant even in choppy markets.
2. **RSI Integration for Overbought/Oversold Conditions 💹**
- **RSI Calculation:** The Relative Strength Index (RSI) is incorporated to identify overbought and oversold conditions, adding an extra layer of precision. This helps in filtering out false signals and ensuring that trades are taken only in optimal conditions.
- **Customizable RSI Settings:** The RSI settings are fully customizable, allowing traders to adjust the RSI length and the overbought/oversold levels according to their trading style and market.
3. **Volume Filtering for Enhanced Signal Confirmation 📉**
- **Volume Multiplier:** This unique feature integrates volume analysis, ensuring that signals are only generated when there is sufficient market participation. The Volume Multiplier can be adjusted to filter out weak signals that occur during low-volume periods.
- **Optional Volume Filtering:** Traders have the flexibility to turn the volume filter on or off, depending on their preference or market conditions. This makes the indicator versatile, allowing it to be used across different asset classes and market conditions.
4. **Squeeze Momentum Indicator (SMI) for Market Pressure Analysis 💥**
- **Squeeze Detection:** The Squeeze Momentum Indicator detects periods of market compression and expansion. This script goes beyond the traditional Bollinger Bands and Keltner Channels by incorporating true range calculations, offering a more nuanced view of market momentum.
- **Customizable Squeeze Settings:** The lengths and multipliers for both Bollinger Bands and Keltner Channels are customizable, giving traders the flexibility to fine-tune the indicator based on their specific needs.
5. **Visual and Aesthetic Customization 🎨**
- **Color-Coding for Clarity:** The indicator is color-coded to make it easy to interpret signals. Bullish trends are marked with a vibrant green color, while bearish trends are highlighted in red. Neutral or unconfirmed signals are displayed in softer tones to reduce noise.
- **Histogram Visualization:** The primary trend direction and strength are displayed as a histogram, making it easy to visualize the market's momentum at a glance. The height and color of the bars provide immediate feedback on the strength and direction of the trend.
6. **Alerts for Real-Time Trading 🚨**
- **Custom Alerts:** The script is equipped with custom alerts that notify traders when a buy or sell signal is generated. These alerts can be configured to send notifications through various channels, including email, SMS, or directly to the trading platform.
- **Immediate Reaction:** The alerts are triggered based on the confluence of SuperTrend, RSI, and Volume signals, ensuring that traders are notified only when the most robust trading opportunities arise.
7. **Comprehensive Input Customization ⚙️**
- **SuperTrend Settings:** Adjust the ATR length and factor to control the sensitivity of the SuperTrend. This allows you to adapt the indicator to different market conditions, whether you're trading a volatile cryptocurrency or a more stable stock.
- **RSI Settings:** Customize the RSI length and thresholds for overbought and oversold conditions, enabling you to tailor the indicator to your specific trading strategy.
- **Volume Settings:** The Volume Multiplier and the option to toggle the volume filter provide an additional layer of customization, allowing you to fine-tune the indicator based on market liquidity and participation.
- **Squeeze Momentum Settings:** The lengths and multipliers for Bollinger Bands and Keltner Channels can be adjusted to detect different levels of market compression, providing flexibility for both short-term and long-term traders.
### How It Works: A Deep Dive Into the Mechanics 🛠️
1. **SuperTrend Calculation:**
- The SuperTrend is calculated using the ATR, which measures market volatility. The indicator creates upper and lower bands around the price, adjusting these bands based on the current level of market volatility. The direction of the trend is determined by the position of the price relative to these bands.
- The script enhances the standard SuperTrend by ensuring that the bands do not flip-flop too quickly, reducing the chances of false signals in a choppy market. The direction is confirmed by checking the position of the close relative to the previous band, making the trend detection more reliable.
2. **RSI Integration:**
- The RSI is calculated over a customizable length and compared to user-defined overbought and oversold levels. When the RSI crosses below the oversold level, and the SuperTrend indicates a bullish trend, a buy signal is generated. Conversely, when the RSI crosses above the overbought level, and the SuperTrend indicates a bearish trend, a sell signal is triggered.
- The combination of RSI with SuperTrend ensures that trades are only taken when there is a strong confluence of signals, reducing the chances of entering trades during weak or indecisive market phases.
3. **Volume Filtering:**
- The script calculates the average volume over a 20-period simple moving average. The volume filter ensures that buy and sell signals are only valid when the current volume exceeds a multiple of this average, which can be adjusted by the user. This feature helps filter out weak signals that might occur during low-volume periods, such as just before a major news event or during after-hours trading.
- The volume filter is particularly useful in markets where volume spikes are common, as it ensures that signals are only generated when there is significant market interest in the direction of the trend.
4. **Squeeze Momentum:**
- The Squeeze Momentum Indicator (SMI) adds a layer of market pressure analysis. The script calculates Bollinger Bands and Keltner Channels, detecting when the market is in a "squeeze" — a period of low volatility that typically precedes a significant price move.
- When the Bollinger Bands are inside the Keltner Channels, the market is in a squeeze (compression phase). This is often a precursor to a breakout or breakdown. The script colors the histogram bars black during this phase, indicating a potential for a strong move. Once the squeeze is released, the bars are colored according to the direction of the SuperTrend, signaling a potential entry point.
5. **Integration and Signal Generation:**
- The script brings together the SuperTrend, RSI, Volume, and Squeeze Momentum to generate highly accurate buy and sell signals. A buy signal is triggered when the SuperTrend is bullish, the RSI indicates oversold conditions, and the volume filter confirms strong market participation. Similarly, a sell signal is generated when the SuperTrend is bearish, the RSI indicates overbought conditions, and the volume filter is met.
- The combination of these elements ensures that the signals are robust, reducing the likelihood of entering trades during weak or indecisive market conditions.
### Practical Applications: How to Use the MultiTrend Squeeze System 📅
1. **Day Trading:**
- For day traders, this indicator provides quick and reliable signals that can be used to enter and exit trades multiple times within a day. The volume filter ensures that you are trading during the most liquid times of the day, increasing the chances of successful trades. The Squeeze Momentum aspect helps you catch breakouts or breakdowns, which are common in intraday trading.
2. **Swing Trading:**
- Swing traders can use the MultiTrend Squeeze System to identify longer-term trends. By adjusting the ATR length and factor, you can make the SuperTrend more sensitive to catch longer-term moves. The RSI and Squeeze Momentum aspects help you time your entries and exits, ensuring that you get in early on a trend and exit before it reverses.
3. **Scalping:**
- For scalpers, the quick signals provided by this system, especially in combination with the volume filter, make it easier to take small profits repeatedly. The histogram bars give you a clear visual cue of the market's momentum, making it easier to scalp effectively.
4. **Position Trading:**
- Even position traders can benefit from this indicator by using it to confirm long-term trends. By adjusting the settings to less sensitive parameters, you can ensure that you are only entering trades when a strong trend is confirmed. The Squeeze Momentum indicator will help you stay in the trade during periods of consolidation, waiting for the next big move.
### Conclusion: Why the MultiTrend Squeeze System is a Game-Changer 🚀
The MultiTrend Squeeze System is not just another trading indicator; it’s a comprehensive trading strategy encapsulated within a single script. By combining the power
of SuperTrend, RSI, Volume Filtering, and Squeeze Momentum, this indicator provides a robust and versatile tool that can be adapted to various trading styles and market conditions.

Fibonacci-Only StrategyFibonacci-Only Strategy
This script is a custom trading strategy designed for traders who leverage Fibonacci retracement levels to identify potential trade entries and exits. The strategy is versatile, allowing users to trade across multiple timeframes, with built-in options for dynamic stop loss, trailing stops, and take profit levels.
Key Features:
Custom Fibonacci Levels:
This strategy calculates three specific Fibonacci retracement levels: 19%, 82.56%, and the reverse 19% level. These levels are used to identify potential areas of support and resistance where price reversals or breaks might occur.
The Fibonacci levels are calculated based on the highest and lowest prices within a 100-bar period, making them dynamic and responsive to recent market conditions.
Dynamic Entry Conditions:
Touch Entry: The script enters long or short positions when the price touches specific Fibonacci levels and confirms the move with a bullish (for long) or bearish (for short) candle.
Break Entry (Optional): If the "Use Break Strategy" option is enabled, the script can also enter positions when the price breaks through Fibonacci levels, providing more aggressive entry opportunities.
Stop Loss Management:
The script offers flexible stop loss settings. Users can choose between a fixed percentage stop loss or an ATR-based stop loss, which adjusts based on market volatility.
The ATR (Average True Range) stop loss is multiplied by a user-defined factor, allowing for tailored risk management based on market conditions.
Trailing Stop Mechanism:
The script includes an optional trailing stop feature, which adjusts the stop loss level as the market moves in favor of the trade. This helps lock in profits while allowing the trade to run if the trend continues.
The trailing stop is calculated as a percentage of the difference between the entry price and the current market price.
Multiple Take Profit Levels:
The strategy calculates seven take profit levels, each at incremental percentages above (for long trades) or below (for short trades) the entry price. This allows for gradual profit-taking as the market moves in the trade's favor.
Each take profit level can be customized in terms of the percentage of the position to be closed, providing precise control over exit strategies.
Strategy Backtesting and Results:
Realistic Backtesting:
The script has been backtested with realistic account sizes, commission rates, and slippage settings to ensure that the results are applicable to actual trading scenarios.
The backtesting covers various timeframes and markets to ensure the strategy's robustness across different trading environments.
Default Settings:
The script is published with default settings that have been optimized for general use. These settings include a 15-minute timeframe, a 1.0% stop loss, a 2.0 ATR multiplier for stop loss, and a 1.5% trailing stop.
Users can adjust these settings to better fit their specific trading style or the market they are trading.
How It Works:
Long Entry Conditions:
The strategy enters a long position when the price touches the 19% Fibonacci level (from high to low) or the reverse 19% level (from low to high) and confirms the move with a bullish candle.
If the "Use Break Strategy" option is enabled, the script will also enter a long position when the price breaks below the 19% Fibonacci level and then moves back up, confirming the break with a bullish candle.
Short Entry Conditions:
The strategy enters a short position when the price touches the 82.56% Fibonacci level and confirms the move with a bearish candle.
If the "Use Break Strategy" option is enabled, the script will also enter a short position when the price breaks above the 82.56% Fibonacci level and then moves back down, confirming the break with a bearish candle.
Stop Loss and Take Profit Logic:
The stop loss for each trade is calculated based on the selected method (fixed percentage or ATR-based). The strategy then manages the trade by either trailing the stop or taking profit at predefined levels.
The take profit levels are set at increments of 0.5% above or below the entry price, depending on whether the position is long or short. The script gradually exits the trade as these levels are hit, securing profits while minimizing risk.
Usage:
For Fibonacci Traders:
This script is ideal for traders who rely on Fibonacci retracement levels to find potential trade entries and exits. The script automates the process, allowing traders to focus on market analysis and decision-making.
For Trend and Swing Traders:
The strategy's flexibility in handling both touch and break entries makes it suitable for trend-following and swing trading strategies. The multiple take profit levels allow traders to capture profits in trending markets while managing risk.
Important Notes:
Originality: This script uniquely combines Fibonacci retracement levels with dynamic stop loss management and multiple take profit levels. It is not just a combination of existing indicators but a thoughtful integration designed to enhance trading performance.
Disclaimer: Trading involves risk, and it is crucial to test this script in a demo account or through backtesting before applying it to live trading. Users should ensure that the settings align with their individual risk tolerance and trading strategy.
MACD Trail | Flux Charts💎 GENERAL OVERVIEW
Introducing our new MACD Trail indicator! Moving average convergence/divergence (MACD) is a well-known indicator among traders. It's a trend-following indicator that uses the relationship between two exponential moving averages (EMAs). This indicator aims to use MACD to generate a trail that follows the current price of the ticker, which can act as a support / resistance zone. More info about the process in the "How Does It Work" section.
Features of the new MACD Trail Indicator :
A Trail Generated Using MACD Calculation
Customizable Algorithm
Customizable Styling
📌 HOW DOES IT WORK ?
First of all, this indicator calculates the current MACD of the ticker using the user's input as settings. Let X = MACD Length setting ;
MACD ~= X Period EMA - (X * 2) Period EMA
Then, two MACD Trails are generated, one being bullish and other being bearish. Let ATR = 30 period ATR (Average True Range)
Bullish MACD Trail = Current Price + MACD - (ATR * 1.75)
Bearish MACD Trail = Current Price + MACD + (ATR * 1.75)
The indicator starts by rendering only the Bullish MACD Trail. Then if it's invalidated (candlestick closes below the trail) it switches to Bearish MACD Trail. The MACD trail switches between bullish & bearish as they get invalidated.
The trail type may give a hint about the current trend of the price action. The trail itself also can act as a support / resistance zone, here is an example :
🚩 UNIQUENESS
While MACD is one of the most used indicators among traders, this indicator aims to add another functionality to it by rendering a trail based on it. This trail may act as a support / resistance zone as described above, and gives a glimpse about the current trend. The indicator also has custom MACD Length and smoothing options, as well as various style options.
⚙️ SETTINGS
1. General Configuration
MACD Length -> This setting adjusts the EMA periods used in MACD calculation. Increasing this setting will make MACD more responseive to longer trends, while decreasing it may help with detection of shorter trends.
Smoothing -> The smoothing of the MACD Trail. Increasing this setting will help smoothen out the MACD Trail line, but it can also make it less responsive to the latest changes.
Volumetric Volatility Blocks [UAlgo]The Volumetric Volatility Blocks indicator is designed to identify significant volatility blocks based on price and volume data. It utilizes a combination of the Average True Range (ATR) and Simple Moving Average (SMA) to determine the volatility level and identify periods of heightened market activity. The indicator highlights these volatility blocks, providing traders with visual cues for potential trading opportunities. It differentiates between bullish and bearish volatility by analyzing price movement and volume, offering a nuanced view of market sentiment. This tool is particularly useful for traders looking to capitalize on periods of high volatility and momentum shifts.
🔶 Key Features
Volatility Measurement Length: Controls the period used to calculate the ATR.
Smooth Length of Volatility: Defines the period for the SMA used to smooth the ATR.
Multiplier of SMA: Sets the minimum threshold for the ATR to be considered a "high volatility" block.
Show Last X Volatility Blocks: Determines how many of the most recent volatility blocks are displayed on the chart.
Mitigation Method: Choose between "Close" or "Wick" price to filter volatility blocks based on price action. This helps avoid highlighting blocks broken by the chosen price level.
Volume Info: Displaying the volume associated with each block.
Up/Down Block Color: Sets the color for bullish and bearish volatility blocks.
🔶 Usage
The Volumetric Volatility Blocks indicator visually represents periods of high volatility with blocks on the chart. Green blocks indicate bullish volatility, while red blocks indicate bearish volatility.
Bullish Volatility Blocks: When the ATR surpasses the smoothed ATR multiplied by the set multiplier, and the price closes higher than it opened, a bullish block is formed. These blocks are generally used to identify potential buying opportunities as they indicate upward momentum.
Bearish Volatility Blocks: Conversely, bearish blocks form under the same conditions, but when the price closes lower than it opened. These blocks can signal potential selling opportunities as they highlight downward momentum.
Volume Information: Each block can display volume data, providing insight into the strength of the market movement. The percentage shown on the block indicates the relative volume contribution of that block, helping traders assess the significance of the volatility.
The volume percentages in the Volumetric Volatility Blocks indicator are calculated based on the total volume of the most recent volatility blocks. For each of the most recent volatility blocks, the percentage of the total volume is calculated by dividing the block's volume by the total volume:

Market Cycle Phases IndicatorOverview
The Market Cycle Phases Indicator is a powerful tool designed to help traders identify and visualize the different phases of market cycles. By distinguishing between Accumulation, Uptrend, Distribution, and Downtrend phases, this indicator provides a clear and color-coded representation of market conditions, aiding in better decision-making and strategy development. It is especially useful for long-term investors to observe and understand market cycles over extended periods. The phases are color-coded for easy identification: Green for Accumulation, Blue for Uptrend, Yellow for Distribution, and Red for Downtrend.
Key Features
Identifies four key market phases: Accumulation, Uptrend, Distribution, and Downtrend
Uses a combination of moving averages and volatility measures
Color-coded background for easy visualization of market phases
Adjustable parameters for moving average length, volatility length, and volatility threshold
Plots the moving average and Average True Range (ATR) for reference
Suitable for both short-term trading and long-term investing
Concepts Underlying the Calculations
The calculations behind the Market Cycle Phases Indicator are straightforward, combining the principles of moving averages and volatility measures:
Moving Average (MA): A simple moving average is used to determine the overall trend direction.
Average True Range (ATR): This measures market volatility over a specified period.
Volatility Threshold: A multiplier is applied to the ATR to distinguish between high and low volatility conditions.
How It Works
The indicator first calculates a moving average (MA) of the closing prices and the Average True Range (ATR) to measure market volatility. Based on the position of the price relative to the MA and the current volatility level, the indicator determines the current market phase:
Accumulation Phase: Price is below the MA, and volatility is low (Green background). This phase often indicates a period of consolidation and potential buying interest before an uptrend.
Uptrend Phase: Price is above the MA, and volatility is high (Blue background). This phase represents a strong upward movement in price, often driven by increased buying activity.
Distribution Phase: Price is above the MA, and volatility is low (Yellow background). This phase suggests a period of consolidation at the top of an uptrend, where selling interest may start to increase.
Downtrend Phase: Price is below the MA, and volatility is high (Red background). This phase indicates a strong downward movement in price, often driven by increased selling activity.
How Traders Can Use It
Traders can use the Market Cycle Phases Indicator to:
Identify potential entry and exit points based on market phase transitions.
Confirm trends and avoid false signals by considering both trend direction and volatility.
Develop and refine trading strategies tailored to specific market conditions.
Enhance risk management by recognizing periods of high and low volatility.
Observe long-term market cycles to make informed investment decisions.
Example Usage Instructions
Add the Market Cycle Phases Indicator to your chart.
Adjust the input parameters as needed:
Base Length: Default is 50.
Volatility Length: Default is 14.
Volatility Threshold: Default is 1.5.
Observe the color-coded background to identify the current market phase
Use the identified phases to inform your trading decisions:
Consider buying during the Accumulation or Uptrend phases.
Consider selling or shorting during the Distribution or Downtrend phases.
Combine with other indicators and analysis techniques for comprehensive market insights.
By incorporating the Market Cycle Phases Indicator into your trading toolkit, you can gain a clearer understanding of market dynamics and enhance your ability to navigate different market conditions, making it a valuable asset for long-term investing.
Scaled Historical ATR [SS]Hello again everyone,
This is the Scaled ATR Range indicator. This was done in response to an article/analysis I posted regarding the expected high and range on SPX. I would encourage you to read it here:
Essentially, I took SPX data, scaled it to correct for inflation, then calculated the ATR for Bullish years to get our average range to expect and our close range to expected.
I accomplished this analysis using Excel; however, I figured Pinescript would handle this type of task more elegantly, and I was correct!
This indicator is the result.
What it does:
This indicator permits the analyst to select a historic period in time. The indicator will then scale the period into returns and convert the range to a corrected range based on the current position of the ticker. How it does this is by converting the returns of the historic period selected, then multiplying the returns by the current period open, to ensure that the range amounts are corrected for inflation and natural growth of a ticker.
I say analyst because this indicator is intended to be used by both professional and recreational analysts, to give them an easy way to:
a) Scale historic data and correct it based on the current rate; and
b) Offer insight into a ticker’s ATR and behaviour during bullish and bearish periods.
Prior to this indicator, the only way to do this would be manually or the use of statistical software.
How to use?
The indicator’s use is quite simple. Once launched, the indicator will ask the user to input a timeframe period that the user is interested in assessing. In the main chart above, I chose SPX between 1995 and 2001.
The user can further filter down the data using the settings menu. In the settings menu, there is an option to filter by “All”, “Bullish Periods” or “Bearish Periods”.
Filtering by “All”
Filtering by “All” will include all candles selected within the timeframe. This includes both bearish and bullish candles. It will give you the averaged out range for the entire period of time, including both bearish and bullish instances.
Filtering by “Bullish”
Filtering by “Bullish” will omit any red candles from the analysis. It will only return the ATR ranges for green, bullish candles.
Filtering by “Bearish”
Inverse to filtering by Bullish, if you filter by Bearish, it will only include the red, bearish candles in the analysis.
My suggestion? If you are trying to determine t he likely outcome of a bullish year, filter by Bullish instances. If you want the likely outcome of a bearish year, filter by Bearish.
Other features of the Indicator:
The indicator will display the current period statistics. In the main chart above, you can see that the current ranges for this year are displayed. This allows you to do a side by side comparison of the current period vs. the historic period you are looking at. This can alert you to further upside, further downside and the anticipated close range. It can also alert you to whether or not we are following a similar trajectory as the historical periods you are looking at.
As well, the indicator will list target prices for the current period based on the historical periods you are looking at. This helps to put things into perspective.
Concluding Remarks
And that is the indicator in a nutshell! I encourage you to read the article I linked above to see how you may use it in an analysis. This would be the best example of a real world application of this indicator!
Otherwise, I hope you enjoy and, as always, safe trades!
ACD Indicator [TradingFinder] M Fisher Pivots Methodology Signal🔵 Introduction
The book "The Logical Trader" begins with a comprehensive review of the ACD Methodology principles, which include identifying specific price points related to the opening range.
This method allows you to set reference points for trading and use points "A" and "C" for trade entry. You will also learn about the "Pivot Range" and how to combine them with the ACD method to maximize position size and minimize risk.
In this indicator, the strategy is implemented to make it easier to use.
🔵 How to Use
The "ACD" strategy can be applied to various markets such as stocks, commodities, or forex, providing buy and sell signals that allow you to set your price targets and stop losses.
This strategy is based on the assumption that the opening range of trades is statistically significant each day, meaning the initial market fluctuations influence the market until the end of the day.
The ACD trading strategy is known as a breakout strategy and performs best in volatile or strongly trending markets, such as crude oil and stocks.
Some of the rules for using the ACD strategy include the following :
Consider points A and C as reference points and continuously pay attention to these points during trades. These points serve as entry and exit points for trades.
Examine daily and multi-day pivot ranges to analyze market trends. If the price is above the pivots, the trend is upward, and if below the pivots, the trend is downward.
Trading with the ACD strategy in forex is possible using the ACD indicator. This indicator is a technical tool used to measure the balance between supply and demand in the market. By analyzing trading volume and price, this indicator helps traders identify trend strength and suitable entry and exit points.
To use the ACD indicator, consider the following :
Identifying strong trends: The ACD indicator can help you identify strong and stable trends in the market.
Determining entry and exit points: ACD provides buy and sell signals to enter or exit trades at the best possible time.
Bullish Setup :
When the "A up" line is broken, it is advisable to wait for some time to ensure that this is not a "Fake Breakout" and that the price stabilizes above this line.
After entering the trade, the best stop loss you can choose is below the "A down" line. However, it is recommended to test this in backtests to achieve the best results. The suitable reward-to-risk ratio for this strategy is 1, which should also be backtested.
Bearish Setup :
When the "A down" line is broken, it is advisable to wait for some time to ensure that this is not a "Fake Breakout" and that the price stabilizes below this line.
After entering the trade, the best stop loss you can choose is above the "A up" line. However, it is recommended to test this in backtests to achieve the best results. The suitable reward-to-risk ratio for this strategy is 1, which should also be backtested.

ATRMonitor: Dynamic ATR and RSI-Based HistogramThe ATRMonitor is a cutting-edge technical indicator designed for traders seeking to harness the combined power of Average True Range (ATR) and Relative Strength Index (RSI) in one intuitive histogram. This innovative tool plots a histogram based on the RSI (6 periods), but with a unique twist: the color of each bar is determined by the relationship between the ATR (6 periods) and its Exponential Moving Average (EMA, 6 periods).
Green Bars: Indicate bullish momentum when the ATR is above its EMA, signaling potential strength in price movements.
Red Bars: Suggest bearish sentiment when the ATR falls below its EMA, potentially indicating weaker price movements.
Ideal for both novice and experienced traders, the ATRMonitor offers a straightforward visualization of market volatility and momentum. It's perfect for various trading styles, including scalping, day trading, and swing trading across diverse markets. Enhance your trading decisions with the ATRMonitor, your go-to tool for a deeper understanding of market dynamics.
Smoothing ATR bandThere are two bands calculated with the ATR and I added "Smoothing" into the script.
Smoothing ATR with multiplier can display two bands above and below the price.
We can ONLY find some ATR bands in Community Scripts with "Basic" setting which is used to set Stop Loss.
And yet , Smoothing ATR with multiplier is capable of making traders manifestly recognize OverBought & OverSold.
FurtherMore, I added a condition with "plotshape", which is "Stop Hunt"
Stop Hunt is an absolutely usual strategy to clean the leverage and it always makes high volatility moves.
When high> above band and close< above band , long signal, it means it had been abundantly bought but the larger traders weren't satisfied; therefore, they quickly sold out to lower the price. The sell condition is on the contrary.
The signals mainly make traders manifestly recognize OverBought & OverSold.
Buyers & Sellers / RangeBuyers & Sellers / Range
Volatility oscillator that measures the relationship of Buying & Selling Pressure to True Range.
In other words, how much % Buyers and Sellers separately occupy the Bar
BSP is a part of Bar Range. Entire bar metrics will always have bigger value than its composite elements (body and wicks).
Since there will be NO chance of BP or SP being more than ATR, their ratio would serve crucial Volatility details.
Hence, we can relate each of them to the overall range.
As a result we have simultaneous measurements of proportions buyers and sellers to the bar.
Default mode shows BP/ATR and SP/ATR mirrored. When one rises, the other falls to compensate.
Buying Pressure / True Range ⬆️🟢 ⬇️🔵
Selling Pressure / True Range ⬆️🔴 ⬇️🟠
They are being averaged in 2 different ways:
Pre-average first, then relate as ratio
Related first, then Averaged
Enable "Preaveraged" to use already averaged BSP and Ranges in ratio instead of averaging the ratio of BSP to individual bar. For example, we're looking BP/ATR, in calculation of buyers / Range it will use "MA(Buying Pressure) / MA(True Range)" instead of "MA(Buying Pressure / True Range)".
Due such calculation, it is going to be more lagging than in off mode. Nevertheless, it reduces noise from the impact of individual bar change.
Second way of noise reduction is enabling "Body / Range"
BSP Body / Range where Bullish & Bearish Body = Buying & Selling Pressure - Relevant Wick
Buying Body = Buying Pressure - Lower Wick
Selling Body = Selling Pressure - Upper Wick
And only then it is divided to ATR.
Note that Balance line differs because body is less than it used to be with wicks. So change in wicks won't play any role in computing the ratio anymore. Thus, signals of their crossings will be more reliable than in default mode.
Volatility Spike EstimatorPlots the Average True Range (ATR), its historical mean, the upper threshold for a volatility spike, and uses background color to show the likelihood of a volatility spike based on the current ATR value.
Green background indicates an increased likelihood of a volatility spike, while red background means a spike might have already occurred or be in progress.
Update: In this version, we added a short-term ATR calculation with an adjustable input parameter, shortTermATRLength. The likelihood of a volatility spike is now estimated based on the short-term ATR instead of the original ATR. This change makes the indicator more sensitive to recent market conditions and can help detect potential volatility spikes more quickly.
Average True Range Refurbished💡 Objective
This script is a rebuild of the pre-existing ATR indicator, with improvements and fine-tuning.
🪄Improvements
1. Normalization option (range 0 to 100)
2. Optional calculation of the ratio between current volatility and average volatility
3. Optional smoothing
4. Show a moving average
5. Show Bollinger Bands with 3 bands
6. Change bar colors according to ATR and Bollinger Bands
📚 Definition
'The Average True Range (ATR) is a tool used in technical analysis to measure volatility. Unlike many of today's popular indicators, the ATR is not used to indicate the direction of price. Rather, it is a metric used solely to measure volatility, especially volatility caused by price gaps or limit moves.'
