[LunaOwl] 11 kinds of Adaptive MA Model作品: 11種自適應性平滑模型
It integrates eleven kinds of adaptive moving average method. At first, I just wanted to make a ATR. Later, the price series ±N*ATR mult, to form two series. Then use the concept of support/resistance breakthrough to design it, and then two adaptive series formation channels were formed. Take the average of the two series as the signal. When the price crosses the signal, it's judged to be long or short.
整合了十一種能夠自適應性的移動平均模型。起初只是想要做一個基本款ATR指標，後來將價格加減N個ATR倍數，形成兩條序列形成通道，再使用支撐阻力突破的概念去設計它，再形成兩條自適應性的序列形成通道，再取中間值當成信號。當價格與信號交叉，則判斷作多或者作空。

Coding ema in pinescriptWhat is EMA ?
Ema is known as exponential moving average, it comes from the class of weighted moving average. It gives more weightage to the recent price changes, thus making it much more relevant to the current market analysis. Also it provides a dynamic way of calculating support and resistances in a trend following setup.
The most common way to mint profit out from the market is to use trend following setups which can be easily achieved by using a group of EMA’s
So how’s this EMA calculated ?
Before understanding the calculation of EMA let’s look into a much wider topic:
“The Law of Averages”
It states : If you do something often enough a ratio will appear, simply put, any time series data, tend to deviate from its average.
EMA provides a way to statistically calculate the exponential moving average for a provided time series data giving much more emphasis on the most recent data in the series.
So in the 17th century, when the people were playing with numbers in their free time, they came up with a statistical strategy to envelop any time series data to detect the direction of the data flow , they called it exponential moving average.
Later in 1940’s with the increase in signal processing requirements in the field of electronic devices scientists started using Exponential moving average onto the electronic signal followers, just to classify the signals as above or below a moving/dynamic threshold.
So EMA is a smoothed time-series data.
The simplest form of EMA Smoothing can be given by the formula:
S(t) = alpha * X(t) + (1 - alpha) * X(t - 1).
The value of alpha must lie between 0 and 1
Where
alpha , is the smoothing factor
X(t) , is the current observation data point
X(t - 1), is the past observational data point.
t , is the current time
Generally,
In current day trading setups for EMA the alpha is calculated by
alpha = 2 / (time period window + 1)
Things to note here is that the alpha calculated above is the most generally used factor calculation method for EMA ,
You can tweak the alpha function above until it gives value between 0 and 1 for example alpha can also be written as
alpha = ln ( current price / past price )
Note it’s just a weighing scheme,
But for Our Case of EMA
We will be using
alpha = 2 / (time period window + 1)
Please refer to the script code below
Relative Strength Index of Moving AveragePine script version 3
Author CryptoJoncis
RSIOMA is the abbreviation for Relative Strength index (RSI) of moving averages (MA). This custom built indicator is based on calculating the relative strength of two moving averages and the smoothes out the RSI using a moving average. Combined, the RSIOMA oscillator depicts trend changes in prices relative to the time frame. The RSIOMA can be used as a signal generator by itself. (www.ProfitF.com)
There are some minor things which you can use to modify this version of RSIOMA:
Choose 2 levels of Over Sold and Over Bought for RSI
Set the middle level to easier visualize the trend
Set x% wider MA line to avoid too many fake signals and gain higher precision
You can choose which MA would you like to use from the following list:
Tillson Moving Average (T3)
Double Exponential Moving Average ( DEMA )
Arnaud Legoux Moving Average ( ALMA )
Least Squares Moving Average ( LSMA )
Simple Moving Average ( SMA )
Exponential Moving Average ( EMA )
Weighted Moving Average ( WMA )

UM EMA SMA WMA HMA with Directional Color ChangeUM EMA SMA WMA HMA with Directional Color Change
Description:
This is a Swiss Army knife type of Moving Average tool. Select your favorite Moving Average type, EMA - Exponential Moving Average, SMA - Simple Moving Average, WMA - Weighted Moving Average, or HMA - Hull Moving Average. Then selection your number of periods. The MA line is green when trending higher and red when trending lower. The fill between price and the MA line matches the red/green of the direction.
Defaults and Configuration:
The default setting is 65 period and EMA. Line colors and optional fill colors are user-configurable.
Alerts:
An alert can be set on the MA for directional color changes (red to green, or green to red) Right click the indicator and select Add Alert. Then select Bullish or Bearish color change.
Suggested Uses:
Add this to any timeframe chart with your favorite Moving averages. A strategy I use frequently is to "stretch" the Moving average. For example if you like the 8 day moving average on the daily chart, try the 52 period Moving average on the hourly chart. (6.5 market hours per day * 8) By looking at smaller time frames with longer MAs you get smoother color transitions on the Moving average. Add multiple instances of the MA. I prefer to use a smaller quick MA with a longer MA that represents a longer time frame.
Another use case I also like is the color transition over a Moving Average crossover. While I do like the daily 2/6 and 8/3 moving average crossovers, red-to-green and green-to-red color transitions seem to work with less lag than the crossovers.
Suggested Settings:
Daily charts: 8 EMA
Hourly charts: 55 EMA
30 minute charts: 65 WMA. (I like this one for inverse ETFs)
3 minutes charts: 178 EMA and 233 EMA
I also like to round MA settings up or down to the nearest fibonacci number: 5, 8, 13, 21, 34, 55, 89, 144, 233, 377, etc.
Larry Williams Valuation Index [tradeviZion]Larry Williams Valuation Index
Welcome to the Larry Williams Valuation Index by tradeviZion! This script is an interpretation of Larry Williams' famous WillVal (Valuation) Index, originally developed in 1990 to help traders determine whether a market or asset is overvalued or undervalued. We've extended it to support multiple securities and offer alerts for different valuation levels, helping you make more informed trading decisions.
What is the Valuation Index?
The Valuation Index measures how a security's current price compares to its historical price action. It helps identify whether the security is overvalued (priced too high), undervalued (priced too low), or in a normal range.
This version supports multiple securities and uses valuation parameters to help you assess the relative valuation of three securities simultaneously. It can help you determine the best times to enter (buy) or exit (sell) the market.
Key Features
Multi-Security Analysis: Analyze up to three securities simultaneously to get a broader view of market conditions.
Valuation Levels: Automatically calculate overvaluation and undervaluation levels or set manual levels for consistent analysis.
Custom Alerts: Create custom alerts when securities move between overvalued, undervalued, or normal ranges.
Customizable Table Display: Display a table with valuation values and their status on the chart.
Getting Started
Step 1: Adding the Script to Your Chart
First, add the Larry Williams Valuation Index script to your chart on TradingView. The script is designed to work with any timeframe, but for best results, use weekly or daily timeframes for a longer-term perspective.
Step 2: Configuring Securities
The script allows you to analyze up to three different securities :
Security 1 (Default: DXY)
Security 2 (Default: GC1!)
Security 3 (Default: ZB1!)
You can enable or disable each security individually.
Custom Timeframe Option: You have the option to select a custom timeframe for analysis. This allows you to see whether the security is overvalued or undervalued in lower or higher timeframes. Note that this feature is experimental and has not been extensively tested. Larry Williams originally used the weekly timeframe to determine if a stock was overvalued or undervalued. By default, the indicator compares the current price with the security based on the selected timeframe, except if you choose to use a custom timeframe.
Pro Tip : New users can start with the default securities to understand the concept before using other assets.
Step 3: Valuation Index Settings
Short EMA Length : This is the short-term average used for calculations. A lower value makes it more responsive to recent price changes.
Long EMA Length : This is the long-term average, used to smooth the valuation over time.
Valuation Length (Default: 156) : Represents approximately three years of daily bars (as recommended by Larry Williams).
How is the Valuation Index Calculated?
The valuation calculation is done using a method called WVI (WillVal Index), which compares the current price of a security to the price of another correlated security. Here’s a step-by-step explanation:
1. Data Collection: The script takes the closing price of the security you are analyzing and the closing price of the correlated security.
2. Ratio Calculation : The ratio of the two prices is calculated:
Price Ratio = (Price of your security) / (Price of correlated security) * 100.
This ratio helps determine how expensive or cheap your security is compared to the correlated one.
3. Exponential Moving Averages (EMAs) : The price ratio is used to calculate short-term and long-term EMAs (Exponential Moving Averages). EMAs are used to create smooth lines that represent the average price of a security over a specific period of time, with more weight given to recent data. By calculating both short-term and long-term EMAs, we can identify the trend direction and how the security is performing compared to its historical averages.
4. Valuation Index Calculation:
The Valuation Index is calculated as the difference between the short-term EMA and the long-term EMA. This difference helps to determine if the security is currently overvalued or undervalued:
A positive value indicates that the price is above its longer-term trend, suggesting potential overvaluation.
A negative value indicates that the price is below its longer-term trend, suggesting potential undervaluation.
5. Normalization:
To make the valuation easier to interpret, the calculated valuation index is then normalized using the highest and lowest values over the selected valuation length (e.g., 156 bars).
This normalization process converts the index into a percentage between 0 and 100, where higher values indicate overvaluation and lower values indicate undervaluation.
Step 4: Understanding Valuation Levels
The valuation levels indicate whether a security is currently undervalued, overvalued, or in a normal range.
Manual Levels : You can manually set the overvaluation and undervaluation thresholds (default is 85 for overvalued and 15 for undervalued).
Auto Levels : The script can automatically calculate these levels based on recent price action, allowing you to adapt to changing market conditions.
Auto Levels Calculation Explained:
The Auto Levels are calculated by taking the average of the valuation indices for all three securities (e.g., index1, index2, and index3).
The script then looks at the highest and lowest values of this average over a selected number of recent bars (e.g., 50 bars).
The overvaluation level is determined by taking the highest value and multiplying it by a multiplier (e.g., 5). Similarly, the undervaluation level is calculated using the lowest value and the multiplier.
These dynamic levels adjust according to recent price action, providing an adaptive approach to identifying overvalued and undervalued conditions.
Step 5: How to Use the Script to Make Trading Decisions
For new users, here's a step-by-step trading strategy you can use with the Valuation Index:
1. Identify Undervalued Opportunities
When two or more securities are in the undervalued range (below 15 for manual or below automatically calculated undervalue levels), wait for at least two of these securities to turn from undervalued to normal .
This transition indicates a potential buy opportunity .
2. Buying Signal
When at least two securities transition from undervalued to normal, you can consider buying the asset.
This indicates that the market may be recovering from undervalued conditions and could be moving into a growth phase.
3. Selling Signal
Exit when the price high closes below the EMA 21 (21-day exponential moving average).
Alternatively, if the valuation index reaches overvalued levels (above 85 manually or auto-calculated), wait for it to drop back to normal . This can be another point to exit the trade .
You can also use any other sell condition based on your r isk management strategy .
Alerts for Valuation Levels
The script includes alerts to notify you of changing market conditions:
To activate these alerts, follow these steps, referring to the provided screenshot with detailed steps:
1. Enable Alerts : Click on the settings gear icon on the script title in your chart. In the settings menu, scroll to the section labeled Alerts Settings .
Enable Alerts by checking the Enable Alerts box.
Set the Required Securities for Alert (default is 2 securities).
Choose the Alert Frequency : Selecting Once Per Bar Close will trigger alerts only at the close of each bar, ensuring you receive confirmed signals rather than potentially noisy intermediate signals.
2. Select Alert Type : Choose the type of alert you want to activate, such as Alert on Overvalued, Alert on Undervalued, Alert on Over to Normal , or Alert on Under to Normal .
3. Save Settings : Click OK to save your alert settings.
4. Add Alert on Indicator : Click the "..." (More button) next to the indicator name on the chart and select " Add alert on tradeviZion - WillVal ".
5. Create Alert : In the Create Alert window:
Set Condition to tradeviZion - WillVal .
Ensure Any alert() function call is selected.
Set the Alert Name and select your Expiration preferences.
6. Set Notification Preferences : Go to the Notifications tab and select how you want to receive notifications, such as via app notification, toast notification, email , or sound alert . Adjust these preferences to best suit your needs.
7. Click Create : Finally, click Create to activate the alert.
These alerts will help you stay informed about key market conditions and take action accordingly, ensuring you do not miss critical trading opportunities.
Understanding the Table Display
The script includes an interactive table on the chart to show the valuation status of each security:
Security : The name of the security being analyzed.
Value : The current valuation index value.
Status : Indicates whether the security is overvalued, undervalued , or in a normal range.
Color: Displays a color code for easy identification of status:
Red for overvalued.
Green for undervalued.
Other colors represent normal valuation levels.
Empowering Messages : Motivational messages are displayed to encourage disciplined trading. These messages will change periodically, helping keep a positive trading mindset.
Acknowledgment
This tool builds upon the foundational work of Larry Williams, who developed the WillVal (Valuation) Index concept. It also incorporates enhancements to extend multi-security analysis, valuation normalization, and advanced alerting features, providing a more versatile and powerful indicator. The Larry Williams Valuation Index [ tradeviZion ] helps traders make informed decisions by assessing overvalued and undervalued conditions for multiple securities simultaneously.
Note : Always practice proper risk management and thoroughly test the indicator to ensure it aligns with your trading strategy. Past performance is not indicative of future results.

-------------------------------------------
This indicator offers a versatile and highly customizable tool for analyzing volatility across different components of price movement, and it can be adapted to different trading styles or market conditions.
Non-Sinusoidal Multi-Layered Moving Average OscillatorThis indicator utilizes multiple moving averages (MAs) of different lengths their difference and its rate of change to provide a comprehensive view of both short-term and long-term market trends. The output signal is characterized by its non-sinusoidal nature, offering distinct advantages in trend analysis and market forecasting.
Combining the difference between two moving averages with the ROC allows to assess not only the direction and strength of the trend but also the momentum behind it. Transforming these signal in to non-sinusoidal output enhances its utility.
The indicator allows traders to select any one or more of seven moving average options. Larger timeframes (e.g., MA89/MA144) provide a broader identification of the overall trend, helping to understand the general market direction. Smaller timeframes (e.g., MA5/MA8) are more sensitive to price changes and can indicate better entry and exit points, aiding in the identification of retracements and pullbacks. By combining multiple timeframes, traders can get a comprehensive view of the market, enabling more precise and informed trading decisions.
Key Features:
Multiple Moving Averages:
The indicator calculates several exponential moving averages (EMAs) based on different lengths: MA5, MA8, MA13, MA21, MA34, MA55, MA89, and MA144.
These MAs are further smoothed using a secondary exponential moving average, with the smoothing length customizable by the user.
Percentage Differences:
The indicator computes the percentage differences between successive MAs (e.g., (MA5 - MA8) / MA8 * 100). These differences highlight the relative movement of prices over different periods, providing insights into market momentum and trend strength.
Short-term MA differences (e.g., MA5/MA8) are more sensitive to recent price changes, making them useful for detecting quick market movements.
Long-term MA differences (e.g., MA89/MA144) smooth out short-term fluctuations, helping to identify major trends.
Rate of Change (ROC):
The indicator applies the Rate of Change (ROC) to the percentage differences of the MAs. ROC measures the speed at which the percentage differences are changing over time, providing an additional layer of trend analysis.
ROC helps in understanding the acceleration or deceleration of market trends, indicating the strength and potential reversals.
Transformations:
The percentage differences undergo a series of mathematical transformations (either inverse hyperbolic sine transformation or inverse fisher transformation) to refine the signal and enhance its interpretability. These transformations include adjustments to stabilize the values and highlight significant movements.
checkbox allows users to select which mathematical transformations to use.
Non-Sinusoidal Nature:
The output signal of this indicator is non-sinusoidal, characterized by abrupt changes and distinct patterns rather than smooth, wave-like oscillations.
The non-sinusoidal signal provides clearer demarcations of trend changes and is more responsive to sudden market shifts.
This nature reduces the lag typically associated with sinusoidal indicators, allowing for more timely and accurate trading decisions.
Customizable Options:
Users can select which MA pairs to include in the analysis using checkboxes. This flexibility allows the indicator to adapt to different trading strategies, whether focused on short-term movements or long-term trends.
Visual Representation:
The indicator plots the transformed values on a separate panel, making it easy for traders to visualize the trends and potential entry or exit points.
Usage Scenarios:
Short-Term Trading: By focusing on shorter MAs (e.g., MA5/MA8), traders can capture quick market movements and identify short-term trends.
Long-Term Analysis: Utilizing longer MAs (e.g., MA89/MA144) helps in identifying major market trends.
Combination of MAs: The ability to mix different MA lengths provides a balanced view, helping traders make decisions based on both immediate price actions and overall market direction.
Practical Benefits:
Early Signal Detection: The sensitivity of short-term MAs provides early signals for potential trend changes, assisting traders in timely decision-making.
Trend Confirmation: Long-term MAs offer stable trend confirmation, reducing the likelihood of false signals in volatile markets.
Noise Reduction: The mathematical transformations and ROC applied to the percentage differences help in filtering out market noise, focusing on meaningful price movements.
Improved Responsiveness: The non-sinusoidal nature of the signal allows the indicator to react more quickly to market changes, providing more accurate and timely trading signals.
Clearer Trend Demarcations: Non-sinusoidal signals make it easier to identify distinct phases of market trends, aiding in better interpretation and decision-making.

The moving average strategy is a popular and widely used technique in financial analysis and trading. It involves the calculation and analysis of moving averages, which are mathematical indicators that smooth out price data over a specified period. This strategy is primarily applied in the context of stock trading, but it can be used for other financial instruments as well.
The concept behind the moving average strategy is to identify trends and potential entry or exit points in the market. By calculating and analyzing moving averages of different timeframes, traders aim to capture the overall direction of the price movement and filter out short-term fluctuations or noise.
To implement the moving average strategy, a trader typically selects two or more moving averages with different periods. The most common combinations include the 50-day and 200-day moving averages. The shorter-term moving average is considered more reactive to price changes, while the longer-term moving average provides a smoother trend line. When the shorter-term moving average crosses above the longer-term moving average, it generates a buy signal, indicating a potential upward trend. Conversely, when the shorter-term moving average crosses below the longer-term moving average, it generates a sell signal, indicating a potential downward trend.
Traders can use various variations of the moving average strategy based on their trading objectives and risk tolerance. For instance, some traders may prefer to use exponential moving averages (EMAs) instead of simple moving averages (SMAs) to give more weight to recent price data. Others may incorporate additional indicators or filters to confirm signals or avoid false signals.
One of the strengths of the moving average strategy is its simplicity and ease of interpretation. It provides a clear visual representation of the trend direction and potential entry or exit points. However, it's important to note that the moving average strategy is a lagging indicator, meaning that it relies on past price data. Therefore, it may not always accurately predict future market movements or capture sudden reversals.
Like any trading strategy, the moving average strategy is not foolproof and carries risks. It is crucial for traders to conduct thorough analysis, consider other relevant factors, and manage their risk through proper position sizing and risk management techniques. Additionally, it's important to adapt the strategy to specific market conditions and combine it with other complementary strategies or indicators for improved decision-making.
Overall, the moving average strategy serves as a valuable tool for traders to identify and follow trends in financial markets, aiding in the analysis of price movements and potential trading opportunities.
Disparity IndexThe Disparity Index is a technical momentum indicator that measures the relative position of the most recent closing price to a selected moving average. It calculates the percentage difference between the closing price and the moving average, providing insights into price momentum and potential reversals.
The formula for the Disparity Index is: * 100, where Close is the most recent closing price and n-period MA is the chosen moving average over n periods.
The Disparity Index can be used in various ways:
Trend Identification: The Disparity Index helps identify the relationship between the price and a chosen moving average. A positive value indicates that the price is above the moving average, suggesting bullish momentum, while a negative value suggests bearish momentum.
Overbought and Oversold Conditions: The Disparity Index can be used to identify potential overbought and oversold conditions. When the index reaches an extremely high value, it may indicate an overbought condition, implying a possible price correction. Conversely, an extremely low value can signal an oversold condition, indicating a potential price rebound.
Divergence: Traders can use the Disparity Index to identify divergence between the price and the indicator. Divergence occurs when the price and the Disparity Index move in opposite directions, potentially signaling an upcoming price reversal.
Personal Strategy: When the Disparity Index generates a green background, it suggests a potential bullish signal. This occurs when the Disparity Index crosses above the oversold threshold or exhibits a bullish reversal pattern. The green background signifies an area where buyers may have gained control, indicating a favorable environment for initiating long positions. This approach allows you to capitalize on potential upward price movements and join the uptrend.
On the other hand, when the Disparity Index generates a red background, it implies a potential bearish signal. This occurs when the Disparity Index crosses below the overbought threshold or exhibits a bearish reversal pattern. The red background highlights a zone where sellers might dominate, indicating a higher likelihood of downward price movements. By considering selling opportunities in these zones, you can position yourself to profit from potential downside moves and align with the prevailing downtrend.
The Disparity Index can be customized by using different types of moving averages such as simple moving averages (SMAs), exponential moving averages (EMAs), or weighted moving averages (WMAs). Additionally, it can be smoothed using another moving average to reduce noise and generate smoother signals, improving trend identification.
In trending markets, the Disparity Index is particularly effective as a trend indicator due to its ability to quickly capture price changes. It can provide early indications of trend strength and potential reversals, allowing traders to enter or exit positions in a timely manner. This advantage over traditional moving averages makes the Disparity Index a valuable tool for trend-following strategies.

Moving Average Directional IndexMADX is ADX-inspired indicator with moving averages that determines strength of a trend, as well as its direction. Indicator works following:
As the value of MADX increases, so does the strength of a trend
If MADX+ ( green line - bullish MADX ) crosses above MADX- ( red line - bearish MADX ) we consider trend as bullish and vice versa..
There will be situations where MADX- and MADX+ cross multiple times in a short period of time -> that will mean that market indecision is happening and big move will most likely happen after it.
For the calculation of MADX+ and MADX- we need Moving Averages or Exponential Moving Averages with three specific sources ( high, close, low ).
Now, the calculation of each MADX will differ
=> for MADX+: Moving Average (high) / Moving Average (close)
=> for MADX-: Moving Average (close) / Moving Average (low)
Length of Moving Average is editable.

Stop Loss With Average True Range (ATR)Stop Loss With Average True Range (ATR)
It simplifies the calculation of stop loss price for stop loss method using the average true range (ATR).
For example;
You want to stop loss below 3 ATR. Let's assume the price is 100, the average true range is 5. You will multiply the average true range by 3 and subtract from the price and enter a stop loss order at the 85 price you have reached. Instead of doing this calculation every time, you just need to use this script and set the multiplier to 3. A stop loss line will be drawn below the price candles.
You can set the method to be used when averaging the true range. Methods you can use to average: EMA (exponentially moving average), HMA (hull moving average), RMA (moving average used in RSI), SMA (simple moving average), SWMA (symmetrically weighted moving average), VWMA (volume-weighted moving average), WMA (weighted moving average).
You can set the length to be used when averaging the true range.
You can set the multiplier to be used when determining the stop loss price.

Ortalama Gerçek Aralıkla (ATR) Zarar Durdurma
Gerçek aralığın ortalamasını kullanarak zarar durdurma yöntemi için zarar durdurma fiyatının hesaplanmasını kolaylaştırır.
Örneğin;
3 ATR kadar aşağıda zarar durdurmak istiyorsunuz. Fiyatın 100, ortalama gerçek aralığın 5 olduğunu varsayalım. Ortalama gerçek aralığı 3 ile çarparak fiyattan çıkaracaksınız ve ulaştığınız 85 fiyatına zarar durdurma emri gireceksiniz. Bu hesabı her seferinde yapmak yerine bu betiği kullanmanız ve çarpanı 3 olarak ayarlamanız yeterli. Bu sayede fiyat mumlarının altına zarar durdurma çizgisi çizilecektir.
Gerçek aralığın ortalaması alınırken kullanılacak yöntemi ayarlayabilirsiniz. Ortalama almak için seçebileceğiniz yöntemler: EMA (üstel hareketli ortalama), HMA (gövde hareketli ortalama), RMA (göreceli hareketli ortalama), SMA (basit hareketli ortalama), SWMA (simetrik ağırlıklı hareketli ortalama), VWMA (hacim ağırıklı hareketli ortalama), WMA (ağırlıklı hareketli ortalama).

[blackcat] L1 Tim Tillson T3Level: 1
Background
T3 Moving Average is the responsive form of traditional moving averages. Presented in 1998 by Tim Tillson, T3 is also known as the Tillson Moving Averages. The thought behind the development of this technical indicator was to improve lag and false signals, which can be present in moving averages.
Function
The T3 indicator performs better than the ordinary moving averages. The reason for this is T3 Moving Average is built with the EMA (exponential moving average).
Its calculation is based on the sum of single EMA, double EMA, Triple EMA, and so on.
This gives the following equation:
T3 = c1*e6 + c2*e5 + c3*e4 + c4*e3…
Where
e3 = EMA (e2, Period)
e4 = EMA (e3, Period)
e5 = EMA (e4, Period)
e6 = EMA (e5, Period)
a is the volume factor, with a default value of 0.7 but you can also use 0.618
c1 = a^3
c2 = 3*a^2 + 3*a^3
c3 =6*a^2 – 3*a – 3*a^3
c4 = 1 + 3*a + a^3 + 3*a^2
When a trend appears, the price action stays above or below the trend line and doesn’t get disturbed from the price swing. The moving of the T3 and the lack of reversals can indicate the end of the trend. The T3 Moving Average produces signals just like moving averages, and similar trading conditions can be applied. If the price is above the T3 Moving Average and the indicator moves upward, this is a sign of a bullish trend. Here we may look to enter long. Conversely, if the price action is below the T3 Moving Average and the indicator moves downwards, a bearish trend appears. Here we may want to look for a short entry.
Key Signal
Price --> Price Input.
T3 --> T3 Ouput.
Remarks
This is a Level 1 free and open source indicator.
Feedbacks are appreciated.
Daily and Weekly Moving Averages on Daily ChartFor the long term trend I use the 200 and 150 daily moving averages. The 200-day MA will be plotted as a black line. It is a no-go zone to buy anything trading below that.
The 150-day, or 30-week like Stan Weinstein uses, is plotted in orange.
Than I use the 50 day moving average but also the 10 week moving average. While those look similar there is a small difference which sometimes impacts the choice for selling a stock or holding on to it.
That slight difference is useful in different situations that’s why I want to have them both on my chart.
Both the 50-day and the 10-week are plotted as red lines on the chart. Since there’s only a small difference the same color gives a nicer view.
For shorter term trend I like to use the 20 and 10 day exponential moving averages. I tested these but also the commonly used 21, 9 and some other variations. But came to the conclusion that for me the 20EMA and 10EMA works best.
Both EMA’s are plotted in blue, where the 20EMA has a thicker line to easily see the difference.

CHANGE LOG:
ACCUMULATION / DISTRIBUTION CLOUD: I decided to change it's name from the Buy to Sell Pressure. The code is essentially the same as older versions and they are the center core (VORTEX?) of all derived New stuff which are:
MORPHIC NUMBERS: The "Golden Ratio" expressed by the result of the constant "PHI" and the newer and same in characteristics "Plastic Number" expressed as "PN". For more information about this regard take a look at: HERE!
CUSTOM(K) EXPONENTIAL MOVING AVERAGE: Some code has cleaned from last version to include as custom function the nEMA , which use an additional input (K) to customise the way the "exponentially" is weighted from the custom array. For the purpose of this indicator, I implement a volatility algorithm using the Average True Range of last 9 periods multiplied by the morphic number used in the fractal study. (Golden Ratio as default) The result is very similar in response to classic EMA but tend to accelerate or decelerate much more responsive with wider bars presented in trending average.
FRACTAL DEVIATION BANDS: The main idea is based on the so useful Standard Deviation process to create Bands in favor of a multiplier (As John Bollinger used in it's own bands) from a custom array, in which for this case is the "Volume Pressure Moving Average" as the main Vortex for the "Fractallitly", so then apply as many "Child bands" using the older one as the new calculation array using the same morphic constant as multiplier (Like Fibonacci but with other approach rather than %ratios). Results are AWSOME! Market tend to accelerate or decelerate their Trend in favor of a Fractal approach. This bands try to catch them, so please experiment and feedback me your own observations.
EXTERNAL TICKER FOR VOLUME DATA: I Added a way to input volume data for this kind of study from external tickers. This is just a quicky-hack given that currently TradingView is not adding Volume to their Indexes so; maybe this is temporary by now. It seems that this part of the code is conflicting with intraday timeframes, so You are advised.
This CODE is versioned as BETA FOR TESTING PROPOSES. By now TradingView Admins are changing lot's of things internally, so maybe this could conflict with correct rendering of this study with special tickers or timeframes. I will try to code by itself just the core parts of this study in order to use them at discretion in other areas. ALL NEW IDEAS OR MODIFICATIONS to these indicator(s) are Welcome in favor to deploy a better and more accurate readings. I will be very glad to be notified at Twitter or TradingView accounts at: @XeL_Arjona

AO/AC Trading Zones Strategy [Skyrexio] Overview
AO/AC Trading Zones Strategy leverages the combination of Awesome Oscillator (AO), Acceleration/Deceleration Indicator (AC), Williams Fractals, Williams Alligator and Exponential Moving Average (EMA) to obtain the high probability long setups. Moreover, strategy uses multi trades system, adding funds to long position if it considered that current trend has likely became stronger. Combination of AO and AC is used for creating so-called trading zones to create the signals, while Alligator and Fractal are used in conjunction as an approximation of short-term trend to filter them. At the same time EMA (default EMA's period = 100) is used as high probability long-term trend filter to open long trades only if it considers current price action as an uptrend. More information in "Methodology" and "Justification of Methodology" paragraphs. The strategy opens only long trades.
Unique Features
No fixed stop-loss and take profit: Instead of fixed stop-loss level strategy utilizes technical condition obtained by Fractals and Alligator to identify when current uptrend is likely to be over. In some special cases strategy uses AO and AC combination to trail profit (more information in "Methodology" and "Justification of Methodology" paragraphs)
Configurable Trading Periods: Users can tailor the strategy to specific market windows, adapting to different market conditions.
Multilayer trades opening system: strategy uses only 10% of capital in every trade and open up to 5 trades at the same time if script consider current trend as strong one.
Short and long term trend trade filters: strategy uses EMA as high probability long-term trend filter and Alligator and Fractal combination as a short-term one.
Methodology
The strategy opens long trade when the following price met the conditions:
1. Price closed above EMA (by default, period = 100). Crossover is not obligatory.
2. Combination of Alligator and Williams Fractals shall consider current trend as an upward (all details in "Justification of Methodology" paragraph)
3. Both AC and AO shall print two consecutive increasing values. At the price candle close which corresponds to this condition algorithm opens the first long trade with 10% of capital.
4. If combination of Alligator and Williams Fractals shall consider current trend has been changed from up to downtrend, all long trades will be closed, no matter how many trades has been opened.
5. If AO and AC both continue printing the rising values strategy opens the long trade on each candle close with 10% of capital while number of opened trades reaches 5.
6. If AO and AC both has printed 5 rising values in a row algorithm close all trades if candle's low below the low of the 5-th candle with rising AO and AC values in a row.
Script also has additional visuals. If second long trade has been opened simultaneously the Alligator's teeth line is plotted with the green color. Also for every trade in a row from 2 to 5 the label "Buy More" is also plotted just below the teeth line. With every next simultaneously opened trade the green color of the space between teeth and price became less transparent.
Strategy settings
In the inputs window user can setup strategy setting:
EMA Length (by default = 100, period of EMA, used for long-term trend filtering EMA calculation).
User can choose the optimal parameters during backtesting on certain price chart.
Justification of Methodology
Let's explore the key concepts of this strategy and understand how they work together. We'll begin with the simplest: the EMA.
The Exponential Moving Average (EMA) is a type of moving average that assigns greater weight to recent price data, making it more responsive to current market changes compared to the Simple Moving Average (SMA). This tool is widely used in technical analysis to identify trends and generate buy or sell signals. The EMA is calculated as follows:
1.Calculate the Smoothing Multiplier:
Multiplier = 2 / (n + 1), Where n is the number of periods.
2. EMA Calculation
EMA = (Current Price) × Multiplier + (Previous EMA) × (1 − Multiplier)
In this strategy, the EMA acts as a long-term trend filter. For instance, long trades are considered only when the price closes above the EMA (default: 100-period). This increases the likelihood of entering trades aligned with the prevailing trend.
Next, let’s discuss the short-term trend filter, which combines the Williams Alligator and Williams Fractals. Williams Alligator
Developed by Bill Williams, the Alligator is a technical indicator that identifies trends and potential market reversals. It consists of three smoothed moving averages:
Jaw (Blue Line): The slowest of the three, based on a 13-period smoothed moving average shifted 8 bars ahead.
Teeth (Red Line): The medium-speed line, derived from an 8-period smoothed moving average shifted 5 bars forward.
Lips (Green Line): The fastest line, calculated using a 5-period smoothed moving average shifted 3 bars forward.
When the lines diverge and align in order, the "Alligator" is "awake," signaling a strong trend. When the lines overlap or intertwine, the "Alligator" is "asleep," indicating a range-bound or sideways market. This indicator helps traders determine when to enter or avoid trades.
Fractals, another tool by Bill Williams, help identify potential reversal points on a price chart. A fractal forms over at least five consecutive bars, with the middle bar showing either:
Up Fractal: Occurs when the middle bar has a higher high than the two preceding and two following bars, suggesting a potential downward reversal.
Down Fractal: Happens when the middle bar shows a lower low than the surrounding two bars, hinting at a possible upward reversal.
Traders often use fractals alongside other indicators to confirm trends or reversals, enhancing decision-making accuracy.
How do these tools work together in this strategy? Let’s consider an example of an uptrend.
When the price breaks above an up fractal, it signals a potential bullish trend. This occurs because the up fractal represents a shift in market behavior, where a temporary high was formed due to selling pressure. If the price revisits this level and breaks through, it suggests the market sentiment has turned bullish.
The breakout must occur above the Alligator’s teeth line to confirm the trend. A breakout below the teeth is considered invalid, and the downtrend might still persist. Conversely, in a downtrend, the same logic applies with down fractals.
In this strategy if the most recent up fractal breakout occurs above the Alligator's teeth and follows the last down fractal breakout below the teeth, the algorithm identifies an uptrend. Long trades can be opened during this phase if a signal aligns. If the price breaks a down fractal below the teeth line during an uptrend, the strategy assumes the uptrend has ended and closes all open long trades.
By combining the EMA as a long-term trend filter with the Alligator and fractals as short-term filters, this approach increases the likelihood of opening profitable trades while staying aligned with market dynamics.
Now let's talk about the trading zones concept and its signals. To understand this we need to briefly introduce what is AO and AC. The Awesome Oscillator (AO), developed by Bill Williams, is a momentum indicator designed to measure market momentum by contrasting recent price movements with a longer-term historical perspective. It helps traders detect potential trend reversals and assess the strength of ongoing trends.
The formula for AO is as follows:
AO = SMA5(Median Price) − SMA34(Median Price)
where:
Median Price = (High + Low) / 2
SMA5 = 5-period Simple Moving Average of the Median Price
SMA 34 = 34-period Simple Moving Average of the Median Price
The Acceleration/Deceleration (AC) Indicator, introduced by Bill Williams, measures the rate of change in market momentum. It highlights shifts in the driving force of price movements and helps traders spot early signs of trend changes. The AC Indicator is particularly useful for identifying whether the current momentum is accelerating or decelerating, which can indicate potential reversals or continuations. For AC calculation we shall use the AO calculated above is the following formula:
AC = AO − SMA5(AO) , where SMA5(AO)is the 5-period Simple Moving Average of the Awesome Oscillator
When the AC is above the zero line and rising, it suggests accelerating upward momentum.
When the AC is below the zero line and falling, it indicates accelerating downward momentum.
When the AC is below zero line and rising it suggests the decelerating the downtrend momentum. When AC is above the zero line and falling, it suggests the decelerating the uptrend momentum.
Now let's discuss the trading zones concept and how it can create the signal. Zones are created by the combination of AO and AC. We can divide three zone types:
Greed zone: when the AO and AC both are rising
Red zone: when the AO and AC both are decreasing
Gray zone: when one of AO or AC is rising, the other is falling
Gray zone is considered as uncertainty. AC and AO are moving in the opposite direction. Strategy skip such price action to decrease the chance to stuck in the losing trade during potential sideways. Red zone is also not interesting for the algorithm because both indicators consider the trend as bearish, but strategy opens only long trades. It is waiting for the green zone to increase the chance to open trade in the direction of the potential uptrend. When we have 2 candles in a row in the green zone script executes a long trade with 10% of capital.
Two green zone candles in a row is considered by algorithm as a bullish trend, but now so strong, that's the reason why trade is going to be closed when the combination of Alligator and Fractals will consider the the trend change from bullish to bearish. If id did not happens, algorithm starts to count the green zone candles in a row. When we have 5 in a row script change the trade closing condition. Such situation is considered is a high probability strong bull market and all trades will be closed if candle's low will be lower than fifth green zone candle's low. This is used to increase probability to secure the profit. If long trades are initiated, the strategy continues utilizing subsequent signals until the total number of trades reaches a maximum of 5. Each trade uses 10% of capital.
Why we use trading zones signals? If currently strategy algorithm considers the high probability of the short-term uptrend with the Alligator and Fractals combination pointed out above and the long-term trend is also suggested by the EMA filter as bullish. Rising AC and AO values in the direction of the most likely main trend signaling that we have the high probability of the fastest bullish phase on the market. The main idea is to take part in such rapid moves and add trades if this move continues its acceleration according to indicators.
