Price Action Analyst [OmegaTools]Price Action Analyst (PAA) is an advanced trading tool designed to assist traders in identifying key price action structures such as order blocks, market structure shifts, liquidity grabs, and imbalances. With its fully customizable settings, the script offers both novice and experienced traders insights into potential market movements by visually highlighting premium/discount zones, breakout signals, and significant price levels.
This script utilizes complex logic to determine significant price action patterns and provides dynamic tools to spot strong market trends, liquidity pools, and imbalances across different timeframes. It also integrates an internal backtesting function to evaluate win rates based on price interactions with supply and demand zones.
The script combines multiple analysis techniques, including market structure shifts, order block detection, fair value gaps (FVG), and ICT bias detection, to provide a comprehensive and holistic market view.
Key Features:
Order Block Detection: Automatically detects order blocks based on price action and strength analysis, highlighting potential support/resistance zones.
Market Structure Analysis: Tracks internal and external market structure changes with gradient color-coded visuals.
Liquidity Grabs & Breakouts: Detects potential liquidity grab and breakout areas with volume confirmation.
Fair Value Gaps (FVG): Identifies bullish and bearish FVGs based on historical price action and threshold calculations.
ICT Bias: Integrates ICT bias analysis, dynamically adjusting based on higher-timeframe analysis.
Supply and Demand Zones: Highlights supply and demand zones using customizable colors and thresholds, adjusting dynamically based on market conditions.
Trend Lines: Automatically draws trend lines based on significant price pivots, extending them dynamically over time.
Backtesting: Internal backtesting engine to calculate the win rate of signals generated within supply and demand zones.
Percentile-Based Pricing: Plots key percentile price levels to visualize premium, fair, and discount pricing zones.
High Customizability: Offers extensive user input options for adjusting zone detection, color schemes, and structure analysis.
User Guide:
Order Blocks: Order blocks are significant support or resistance zones where strong buyers or sellers previously entered the market. These zones are detected based on pivot points and engulfing price action. The strength of each block is determined by momentum, volume, and liquidity confirmations.
Demand Zones: Displayed in shades of blue based on their strength. The darker the color, the stronger the zone.
Supply Zones: Displayed in shades of red based on their strength. These zones highlight potential resistance areas.
The zones will dynamically extend as long as they remain valid. Users can set a maximum number of order blocks to be displayed.
Market Structure: Market structure is classified into internal and external shifts. A bullish or bearish market structure break (MSB) occurs when the price moves past a previous high or low. This script tracks these breaks and plots them using a gradient color scheme:
Internal Structure: Short-term market structure, highlighting smaller movements.
External Structure: Long-term market shifts, typically more significant.
Users can choose how they want the structure to be visualized through the "Market Structure" setting, choosing from different visual methods.
Liquidity Grabs: The script identifies liquidity grabs (false breakouts designed to trap traders) by monitoring price action around highs and lows of previous bars. These are represented by diamond shapes:
Liquidity Buy: Displayed below bars when a liquidity grab occurs near a low.
Liquidity Sell: Displayed above bars when a liquidity grab occurs near a high.
Breakouts: Breakouts are detected based on strong price momentum beyond key levels:
Breakout Buy: Triggered when the price closes above the highest point of the past 20 bars with confirmation from volume and range expansion.
Breakout Sell: Triggered when the price closes below the lowest point of the past 20 bars, again with volume and range confirmation.
Fair Value Gaps (FVG): Fair value gaps (FVGs) are periods where the price moves too quickly, leaving an unbalanced market condition. The script identifies these gaps:
Bullish FVG: When there is a gap between the low of two previous bars and the high of a recent bar.
Bearish FVG: When a gap occurs between the high of two previous bars and the low of the recent bar.
FVGs are color-coded and can be filtered by their size to focus on more significant gaps.
ICT Bias: The script integrates the ICT methodology by offering an auto-calculated higher-timeframe bias:
Long Bias: Suggests the market is in an uptrend based on higher timeframe analysis.
Short Bias: Indicates a downtrend.
Neutral Bias: Suggests no clear directional bias.
Trend Lines: Automatic trend lines are drawn based on significant pivot highs and lows. These lines will dynamically adjust based on price movement. Users can control the number of trend lines displayed and extend them over time to track developing trends.
Percentile Pricing: The script also plots the 25th percentile (discount zone), 75th percentile (premium zone), and a fair value price. This helps identify whether the current price is overbought (premium) or oversold (discount).
Customization:
Zone Strength Filter: Users can set a minimum strength threshold for order blocks to be displayed.
Color Customization: Users can choose colors for demand and supply zones, market structure, breakouts, and FVGs.
Dynamic Zone Management: The script allows zones to be deleted after a certain number of bars or dynamically adjusts zones based on recent price action.
Max Zone Count: Limits the number of supply and demand zones shown on the chart to maintain clarity.
Backtesting & Win Rate: The script includes a backtesting engine to calculate the percentage of respect on the interaction between price and demand/supply zones. Results are displayed in a table at the bottom of the chart, showing the percentage rating for both long and short zones. Please note that this is not a win rate of a simulated strategy, it simply is a measure to understand if the current assets tends to respect more supply or demand zones.
How to Use:
Load the script onto your chart. The default settings are optimized for identifying key price action zones and structure on intraday charts of liquid assets.
Customize the settings according to your strategy. For example, adjust the "Max Orderblocks" and "Strength Filter" to focus on more significant price action areas.
Monitor the liquidity grabs, breakouts, and FVGs for potential trade opportunities.
Use the bias and market structure analysis to align your trades with the prevailing market trend.
Refer to the backtesting win rates to evaluate the effectiveness of the zones in your trading.

Trailing Stop ProTrailing Stop Pro is a sophisticated TradingView indicator designed to enhance your trading strategy by dynamically managing trailing stops based on market volatility. This tool leverages the Average True Range (ATR) to adjust stop levels, providing traders with a robust mechanism to protect profits and minimize losses.
Key Features:
Dynamic Trailing Stops: Automatically adjusts stop levels using ATR, allowing for responsive and adaptive risk management.
Customizable Inputs: Tailor the indicator to your trading style with adjustable parameters such as ATR Length, ATR Multiplier, and Source Vector.
Visual Clarity: Distinct color settings for long and short stops, with adjustable line thickness and transparency, ensuring clear visualization on your charts.
Professional Grade: The "Pro" designation signifies advanced features suitable for both novice and experienced traders seeking reliable and efficient stop management.
How It Works:
To set up the indicator, begin by defining the Chrono Point, which specifies the exact time you want the trailing stop mechanism to activate. This allows for precise control over when your stops begin to trail. Next, set the Credit Unit as the initial entry price for your trade, serving as the baseline from which the trailing stops will adjust.
The indicator uses ATR-based adjustments to determine stop levels. Customize the sensitivity of the trailing stop by adjusting the ATR Length (default is 14) and ATR Multiplier (default is 0.5). A longer ATR length smooths out volatility, while a higher multiplier increases the distance of the stop from the price.
Select your Source Vector from "High/Low," "Close," or "Open" prices as the basis for stop calculation. This flexibility allows you to align the indicator with your preferred trading strategy. The indicator plots trailing stops directly on the chart, with color-coded lines indicating long (teal) and short (red) positions. You can adjust the line thickness and transparency for optimal visibility.
The Mission Status feature automatically detects whether the trade is long or short and adjusts the trailing stop accordingly. If the price hits the trailing stop, the trade is considered exited, and the indicator calculates the profit or loss percentage.
Benefits:
Risk Management: Protect your trades from adverse market movements while locking in profits as prices move favorably.
Automation: Reduce manual intervention with automatic stop adjustments, allowing you to focus on strategic decision-making.
User-Friendly Interface: Intuitive settings and clear visual cues make it easy to integrate into your existing trading workflow.
Conclusion:
Trailing Stop Pro is an essential tool for traders looking to enhance their risk management strategies with precision and ease. By automating the trailing stop process and providing clear visual feedback, this indicator empowers you to navigate the markets with confidence. Whether you're a seasoned trader or just starting, Trailing Stop Pro offers the functionality and flexibility needed to optimize your trading performance.
The Trailing Stop Pro indicator is a tool designed to assist traders in managing risk and optimizing their trading strategies. However, it should not be considered as financial advice or a guarantee of profitability. Trading involves significant risk, and it is possible to lose more than your initial investment. Users are encouraged to thoroughly test the indicator in a demo environment and consider their own financial situation and risk tolerance before using it in live trading. Past performance is not indicative of future results, and users should seek advice from a qualified financial advisor if needed.
Helacator Ai ThetaHelacator Ai Theta is a state-of-the-art advanced script. It helps the trader find the possibility of a trend reversal in the market. By finding that point at which the three black crows pattern combines with the three white soldiers pattern, it is the most cherished pattern in technical analysis for its signal of strong bullish or bearish momentum. Therefore, it is a very strong predictive tool in the ability of shifting markets.
Key Highlights: Three White Soldiers and Three Black Crows Patterns
The script identifies these candlestick formations that consist of three consecutive candles, either bullish (Three White Soldiers) or bearish (Three Black Crows). These patterns help the trader identify possible trend reversal points as they provide an early signal of a change in the market direction. It is with great care that the script is written to evaluate the position and relationship between the candlesticks for maintaining the accuracy of pattern recognition. Moving Averages for Trend Filtering:
Two important ones used are moving averages for filtering any signals not in accordance with the general trend. The length of these MAs is variable, allowing the traders to be in a position to adapt the script for use under different market conditions. The moving averages ensure that signals are only taken in the direction that supports the general market flow, so it leads to more reliability within the signals. The MAs are not plotted on the chart for the sake of clarity, but they still perform a crucial function in signal filtering and can be displayed optionally for a more detailed investigation. Cooldown filter to reduce over-trading
This is part of what is implemented in the script to prevent generation of consecutive signals too quickly. All this helps to reduce market noise and not overtrade—only when market conditions are at their best. The cooldown period can be set to be adjusted according to the trader's preference, making the script more versatile in its use. Practical Considerations: Educational Purpose: This script is for educational purposes only and should be part of a comprehensive trading approach. Proper risk management techniques should be observed while at the same time taking into consideration prevailing market conditions before making any trading decision.
No Guaranteed Results: The script is aimed at bringing signal accuracy into improvement to align with the broader market trend and reducing noise, but past performance cannot guarantee future success. Traders should use this script within their broad trading approach. Clean and Simple Chart Display: The primary goal of this script is to have a clear and simple display on the chart. The signals are prominently marked with "BUY" and "SELL," and the color of the bars has changed according to the last signal, thus traders can easily read the output. Community and Open Source Open Source Contribution: This script is open for contribution by the TradingView community. Any suggestions regarding improvements are highly welcomed. Candlestick patterns, moving averages, and the combination of the cooldown filter are presented in such a way as to give traders something special, and any modifications or extra touch by the community is appreciated. Attribution and Transparency: The script is based on standard technical analysis principles and for all parts inspired by or derivated from other available open-source scripts, credit is given where it is due. In this way, transparency ensures that the script adheres to TradingView's standards and promotes a collaborative community environment.
OrderBlock Trend (CISD)OrderBlock Trend (CISD) Indicator
Overview:
The "OrderBlock Trend (CISD)" AKA: change in state of delivery by ICT inner circle trader this indicator is designed to help traders identify and visualize market trends based on higher timeframe candle behavior. This script leverages the concept of order blocks, which are price levels where significant buying or selling activity has occurred, to signal potential trend reversals or continuations. By analyzing bullish and bearish order blocks on a higher timeframe, the indicator provides visual cues and statistical insights into the market's current trend dynamics.

Higher Timeframe Analysis: The indicator uses a higher timeframe (e.g., Daily) to assess the trend direction based on the open and close prices of candles. This approach helps in identifying more significant and reliable trend changes, filtering out noise from lower timeframes.
Bullish and Bearish Order Blocks: The script detects the first bullish or bearish candle on the selected higher timeframe and uses these candles as reference points (order blocks) to determine the trend direction. A bullish trend is indicated when the current price is above the last bearish order block's open price, and a bearish trend is indicated when the price is below the last bullish order block's open price.
Visual Trend Indication: The indicator visually represents the trend using background colors and plot shapes:
A green background and a square shape above the bars indicate a bullish trend.
A red background and a square shape above the bars indicate a bearish trend.
Candle Count and Statistics: The script keeps track of the number of up and down candles during bullish and bearish trends, providing percentages of up and down candles in each trend. This data is displayed in a table, giving traders a quick overview of market sentiment during each trend phase.
User Customization: The higher timeframe can be adjusted according to the trader's preference, allowing flexibility in trend analysis based on different time horizons.
Concepts and Calculations:
The "OrderBlock Trend (CISD)" indicator is based on the concept of order blocks, a key area where institutional traders are believed to place large orders, creating significant support or resistance levels. By identifying these blocks on a higher timeframe, the indicator aims to highlight potential trend reversals or continuations. The use of higher timeframe data helps filter out minor fluctuations and focus on more meaningful price movements.
The candle count and percentage calculations provide additional context, allowing traders to understand the proportion of bullish or bearish candles within each trend. This information can be useful for assessing the strength and consistency of a trend.
How to Use:
Select the Higher Timeframe: Choose the higher timeframe (e.g., Daily) that best suits your trading strategy. The default setting is "D" (Daily), but it can be adjusted to other timeframes as needed.
Interpret the Trend Signals:
A green background indicates a bullish trend, while a red background indicates a bearish trend. The corresponding square shapes above the bars reinforce these signals.
Use the information on the proportion of up and down candles during each trend to gauge the trend's strength and consistency.
Trading Decisions: The indicator can be used in conjunction with other technical analysis tools and indicators to make informed trading decisions. It is particularly useful for identifying trend reversals and potential entry or exit points based on the behavior of higher timeframe order blocks.
Customization and Optimization: Experiment with different higher timeframes and settings to optimize the indicator for your specific trading style and preferences.
Conclusion:
The "OrderBlock Trend (CISD)" indicator offers a comprehensive approach to trend analysis, combining the power of higher timeframe order blocks with clear visual cues and statistical insights.

Macro Risk On/Off SentimentOverview
As an Ichimoku trader, I've always found it crucial to understand the broader market sentiment before entering trades. That's why I developed this Macro Risk On/Off Sentiment Indicator. It's designed to provide a comprehensive view of global market risk sentiment by analysing multiple factors across different asset classes. By combining nine key market indicators, it produces an overall risk sentiment score, giving me a clearer picture of the market's mood before I apply my Ichimoku strategy.
Rationale
While Ichimoku is powerful for identifying trends and potential entry points, I realised it doesn't always capture the broader market context. Markets don't exist in isolation—they're influenced by a myriad of factors including volatility, economic indicators, and cross-asset relationships. By creating this indicator, I aimed to fill that gap, providing myself with a macro view that complements my Ichimoku analysis.
How It Works
The indicator analyses nine different market factors:
VIX (Volatility Index): Measures market expectations of near-term volatility.
S&P 500 Performance: Represents the overall US stock market performance.
US 10-Year Treasury Yield: Indicates bond market sentiment and economic outlook.
Gold Price Movement: Often seen as a safe-haven asset.
US Dollar Index: Measures the strength of the USD against a basket of currencies.
Emerging Markets Performance: Represents risk appetite for higher-risk markets.
High Yield Bond Spreads: Indicates credit market risk sentiment.
Copper/Gold Ratio: An economic growth indicator.
Put/Call Ratio: Measures overall market sentiment based on options trading.
Each factor is assigned a score based on its z-score relative to its recent history, then weighted according to its perceived importance. The overall risk score is a weighted average of these individual scores.
How I Use It
Before applying my Ichimoku strategy, I first check this indicator to gauge the overall market sentiment:
I look at the blue line plotted on the chart, which represents the overall risk score.
I note the background colour: green for risk-on (positive score) and red for risk-off (negative score).
I check the label in the lower-left corner, which provides specific FX pair recommendations and market expectations.
In a risk-on environment (positive score):
I focus on long positions in AUD/JPY, NZD/JPY, EUR/USD, etc.
I look for short opportunities in USD/CAD, USD/NOK, etc.
I expect commodities and yields to rise
In a risk-off environment (negative score):
I focus on long positions in USD/JPY, USD/CHF, USD/CAD
I look for short opportunities in AUD/USD, NZD/USD, EUR/USD
I expect increased volatility and falling yields
The strength of the sentiment is reflected in how close the score is to either 1 (strong risk-on) or -1 (strong risk-off). This helps me gauge how aggressive or conservative I should be with my Ichimoku trades.
Customisation
I've designed this indicator to be flexible. You can modify it to:
Adjust the lookback period and moving average length (both default to 30)
Change the weighting of different factors in the final score calculation
Include or exclude specific factors based on your analysis needs
By combining this Macro Risk On/Off Sentiment Indicator with my Ichimoku analysis, I've found I can make more informed trading decisions, taking into account both the technical setups I see on the chart and the broader market context.
Flush Percent RangeFans of Woodies CCI may recognize the approach to this one. This is my attempt at using the same methods but for taking the highs and lows into account without the standard deviation of the CCI. The smoothness of other oscillators may not be ideal however the Williams Percent Range is a fast stochastic that also operates within a channel. This provides an alternative yet still complex view for the virtuoso. A unique feature is total utilization of the weighted moving average, from the standard to the more complex. A fun fact is the Hull Moving Average is actually calculated using weighted moving averages.
How to use:
The base length is for accuracy, the fast length is for catching all the moves(even the wrong ones sometimes.)
The bars back option will not flip the histogram/base trend to its bullish/bearish alternative until the base plot remains on the latter half of the oscillator for a certain number of bars. This can be set to zero if desired.
The factor controls the chop on the various levels. A higher number will increase it.
The oscillator levels are measuring slope, price relative to the average, and a summation of percent changes between the two. Both the baseline/histogram and the levels have color coding for bullishness, bearishness, and indecision(depending on the factor.) The fast line matches the indecision color by default. This is all customizable.
There are many potential ways to trade with this indicator. From hooks back toward the trend and range line crossovers to divergence and reversals. It's important to note the current performance of the oscillator levels. Time cycles may come in handy along with other forecasting tools.
Lastly, there are optional linear regression lines plotted on the chart. They're synchronized to the lengths in the oscillator. This is an additional visual aid to provide context to the direction of the channel.
Overall the Flush Percent Range is for analyzing multiple regression models within a single price channel. No smoothing, fast averages, and specified timeframes of highs/lows. Credit to Larry Williams for the original calculation and Ken Woods for design/methodology inspiration.

Directional Movement Index DEThis script uses the existing built-in DMI indicator but adds two lines indicating strength of the ADX trend. The original author J. Welles Wilder, indicated a ADX trending strongly above 25 (yellow by default), and ADX trending weaker at a threshold of 20 or below (dashed yellow by default).
The default colours have been changed so that ADX is yellow, +DI is green, and -DI is red.
Calculation
Calculating the DMI can actually be broken down into two parts. First, calculating the +DI and -DI, and second, calculating the ADX. To calculate the +DI and -DI you need to find the +DM and -DM (Directional Movement). +DM and -DM are calculated using the High, Low and Close for each period. You can then calculate the following:
Current High - Previous High = UpMove
Previous Low - Current Low = DownMove
If UpMove > DownMove and UpMove > 0, then +DM = UpMove, else +DM = 0
If DownMove > Upmove and Downmove > 0, then -DM = DownMove, else -DM = 0
Once you have the current +DM and -DM calculated, the +DM and -DM lines can be calculated and plotted based on the number of user defined periods.
+DI = 100 times Exponential Moving Average of (+DM / Average True Range)
-DI = 100 times Exponential Moving Average of (-DM / Average True Range)
Now that -+DX and -DX have been calculated, the last step is calculating the ADX.
ADX = 100 times the Exponential Moving Average of the Absolute Value of (+DI - -DI) / (+DI + -DI)
The basics
DMI has a value between 0 and 100 and is used to measure the strength of the current trend. +DI and -DI are then used to measure direction. When combined, the indicator can provide some valuable insight. A general interpretation would be that during a strong trend (ADX above 25 but dependent on the analyst's interpretation), when the +DI is above the -DI, then a Bullish Market is defined. When -DI is above +DI, then a Bearish Market is at hand.
One thing to be considered is that what DMI values determine, strength or a potential signal, is up to the trader's interpretation. Acceptable values may change depending on the financial instrument being examined, therefore some historical analysis of the instrument in question would be prudent. A technical analyst can make better decisions based on what has occurred in historical examples.

Adaptive Trend Lines [MAMA and FAMA]Updated my previous algo on the Adaptive Trend lines, however I have added new functionalities and sorted out the settings.
You can now switch between normalized and non-normalized settings, the colors have also been updated and look much better.
The MAMA and FAMA
These indicators was originally developed by John F. Ehlers (Stocks & Commodities V. 19:10: MESA Adaptive Moving Averages). Everget wrote the initial functions for these in pine script. I have simply normalized the indicators and chosen to use the Laplace transformation instead of the hilbert transformation
How the Indicator Works:
The indicator employs a series of complex calculations, but we'll break it down into key steps to understand its functionality:
LaplaceTransform: Calculates the Laplace distribution for the given src input. The Laplace distribution is a continuous probability distribution, also known as the double exponential distribution. I use this because of the assymetrical return profile
MESA Period: The indicator calculates a MESA period, which represents the dominant cycle length in the price data. This period is continuously adjusted to adapt to market changes.
InPhase and Quadrature Components: The InPhase and Quadrature components are derived from the Hilbert Transform output. These components represent different aspects of the price's cyclical behavior.
Homodyne Discriminator: The Homodyne Discriminator is a phase-sensitive technique used to determine the phase and amplitude of a signal. It helps in detecting trend changes.
Alpha Calculation: Alpha represents the adaptive factor that adjusts the sensitivity of the indicator. It is based on the MESA period and the phase of the InPhase component. Alpha helps in dynamically adjusting the indicator's responsiveness to changes in market conditions.
MAMA and FAMA Calculation: The MAMA and FAMA values are calculated using the adaptive factor (alpha) and the input price data. These values are essentially adaptive moving averages that aim to capture the current trend more effectively than traditional moving averages.
But Omar, why would anyone want to use this?
The MAMA and FAMA lines offer benefits:
The indicator offers a distinct advantage over conventional moving averages due to its adaptive nature, which allows it to adjust to changing market conditions. This adaptability ensures that investors can stay on the right side of the trend, as the indicator becomes more responsive during trending periods and less sensitive in choppy or sideways markets.
One of the key strengths of this indicator lies in its ability to identify trends effectively by combining the MESA and MAMA techniques. By doing so, it efficiently filters out market noise, making it highly valuable for trend-following strategies. Investors can rely on this feature to gain clearer insights into the prevailing trends and make well-informed trading decisions.
This indicator is primarily suppoest to be used on the big timeframes to see which trend is prevailing, however I am not against someone using it on a timeframe below the 1D, just be careful if you are using this for modern portfolio theory, this is not suppoest to be a mid-term component, but rather a long term component that works well with proper use of detrended fluctuation analysis.
Dont hesitate to ask me if you have any questions
Again, I want to give credit to Everget and ChartPrime!

Constants and functions
var float PI = math.pi
laplace(src) =>
(0.5) * math.exp(-math.abs(src))
_computeComponent(src, mesaPeriodMult) =>
out = laplace(src) * mesaPeriodMult
out
_smoothComponent(src) =>
out = 0.2 * src + 0.8 * nz(src )
out
math.pi: Represents the mathematical constant π (pi).
laplace: A function that applies the Laplace transform to the source data.
_computeComponent: Computes a component of the data using the Laplace transform.
_smoothComponent: Smooths data by averaging the current value with the previous one (nz function is used to handle null values).
Alpha function:
_computeAlpha(src, fastLimit, slowLimit) =>
mesaPeriod = 0.0
mesaPeriodMult = 0.075 * nz(mesaPeriod ) + 0.54
...
alpha = math.max(fastLimit / deltaPhase, slowLimit)
out = alpha
out
_computeAlpha: Calculates the adaptive alpha value based on the fastLimit and slowLimit. This value is crucial for determining the MAMA and FAMA lines.
Calculating MAMA and FAMA:
mama = 0.0
mama := alpha * src + (1 - alpha) * nz(mama )
fama = 0.0
fama := alpha2 * mama + (1 - alpha2) * nz(fama )
Normalization:
lowest = ta.lowest(mama_fama_diff, norm_period)
highest = ta.highest(mama_fama_diff, norm_period)
normalized = (mama_fama_diff - lowest) / (highest - lowest) - 0.5
ta.lowest and ta.highest: Find the lowest and highest values of mama_fama_diff over the normalization period.
The oscillator is normalized to a range, making it easier to compare over different periods.
And finally, the plotting:
plot(norm == true ? normalized : na, style=plot.style_columns, color=col_wn, title = "mama_fama_diff Oscillator Normalized")
plot(norm == false ? mama_fama_diff : na, style=plot.style_columns, color=col_wnS, title = "mama_fama_diff Oscillator")

Trend Regression Kernel [IkkeOmar]Kernel by @jdehorty huge shoutout to him! This is only an idea for how I use it when trading
All credit for the kernel goes to him, I did not make the kernel! I don't know how to make it more clear.
I use this to assist with top-down analysis.
timeframe I want to trade : timeframe to analyse with white noise and kernel:
1m : 1H
5m : 2H
15m : 4H
1H : 1D
In the chart you see that I have the 1H open, I use the white noise at a "lower setting length" (55 in this case), I change the source of to be the kernel on the higher timeframe. When a new trend is detected by the White noise I wait for price to retest the kernel before building a position. Another case described below:
Here i use the adaptive MCVF (I have made this free for everyone on TradingView) to buy when price is below the kernel while the trend for the white noise is bullish .
Notice that the Kernel is set on the 4H timeframe! The source of the white noise is the kernel!
Here is an example in a bearish trend:
Notice, I am on the 5m chart, kernel uses the 2H chart and the source of the white noise is the kernel.
I use the adaptive MCVF to help me get entries AFTER the first touch of the kernel.
Mandatory code explanation, with respect to the house rules:
Input settings:
Input Settings:
The script provides various input parameters to customize the indicator:
src: The source of price data, defaulted to closing prices.
h, r, x_0: Parameters for Kernel 1.
h2, r2, x_2: Parameters for Kernel 2.
Kernel Regression Functions:
Two functions kernel_regression1 and kernel_regression2 are defined to perform kernel regression calculations.
These functions estimate the trend using the Nadaraya-Watson kernel non-parametric regression method.
They take the source data (_src), the size of the data series (_size), and the lookback window (_h) as inputs.
They iterate over the data series and calculate the weighted sum of the values based on the specified kernel parameters.
The result is divided by the cumulative weight to obtain the estimated value.
Estimations:
The kernel_regression1 and kernel_regression2 functions are called with the respective parameters to estimate trends (yhat1 and yhat2).
Buy and Sell Signals:
Buy and sell signals are generated based on crossover and crossunder conditions between the two trend estimates (yhat1 and yhat2).
buySignal is true when yhat1 crosses above yhat2.
SellSignal is true when yhat1 crosses below yhat2.
Plotting:
The average of the two trend estimates (yhat1 and yhat2) is calculated and plotted.
The color of the plot is determined based on whether yhat1 is greater than yhat2, less than yhat2, or equal to yhat2.
Buy and sell signals are plotted using triangle shapes below and above bars, respectively.
Alerts:
Alert conditions are set based on buy and sell signals. Alerts are triggered when a crossover (long signal) or crossunder (short signal) occurs.
The alerts include information about the signal type, symbol, and price.
It's important to mention that the buy and sell signals from the indicator is very discretionary, I rarely use them, and if I do it's if they are in confluence with a correction i am biased towards or if it has confluence with some of my other systems.
The adaptive MCVF and White noise is free for everyone on TradingView, linked below:)
Huge shoutout to @jdehorty, original kernel below:
Candle Close TrendFirst of all, a huge credit to Wade for all the help with this indicator. An absolute Legend!
The idea behind this indicator is to identify a potential trend with simply the close of candles.
If a candle closes above the previous candle High, the trend would be "bullish" and remain bullish until there is a candle that closes below the previous candle Low. The opposite is true for a "bearish" trend.
As always, this is NOT intended to be used by itself, but with other TA.
For cleanest results, I find it best to use with the candle borders turned off in the chart settings but that is just my preference.
Works on all timeframes.
Commitments of Traders Report [Advanced]This indicator displays the Commitment of Traders (COT) report data in a clear, table format similar to an Excel spreadsheet, with additional functionalities to analyze open interest and position changes. The COT report, published weekly by the Commodity Futures Trading Commission (CFTC), provides valuable insights into market sentiment by revealing the positioning of various trader categories.
Display:
Release Date: When the data was released.
Open Interest: Shows the total number of open contracts for the underlying instrument held by selected trader category.
Net Contracts: Shows the difference between long and short positions for selected trader category.
Long/Short OI: Displays the long and short positions held by selected trader category.
Change in Long/Short OI: Displays the change in long and short positions since the previous reporting period. This can highlight buying or selling pressure.
Long & Short Percentage: Displays the percentage of total long and short positions held by each category.
Trader Categories (Configurable)
Commercials: Hedgers who use futures contracts to manage risk associated with their underlying business (e.g., producers, consumers).
Non-Commercials (Large Speculators): Speculative traders with large positions who aim to profit from price movements (e.g., hedge funds, investment banks).
Non-Reportable (Small Speculators/Retail Traders): Smaller traders with positions below the CFTC reporting thresholds.
CFTC Code: If the indicator fails to retrieve data, you can manually enter the CFTC code for the specific instrument. The code for instrument can be found on CFTC's website.
Using the Indicator Effectively
Market Sentiment Gauge: Analyze the positioning of each trader category to gauge overall market sentiment.
High net longs by commercials might indicate a bullish outlook, while high net shorts could suggest bearish sentiment.
Changes in open interest and long/short positions can provide additional insights into buying and selling pressure.
Trend Confirmation: Don't rely solely on COT data for trade signals. Use it alongside price action and other technical indicators for confirmation.
Identify Potential Turning Points: Extreme readings in COT data, combined with significant changes in open interest or positioning, might precede trend reversals, but exercise caution and combine with other analysis tools.
Disclaimer
Remember, the COT report is just one piece of the puzzle. It should not be used for making isolated trading decisions. Consider incorporating it into a comprehensive trading strategy that factors in other technical and fundamental analysis.

Shadow Range IndexShadow Range Index (SRI) introduces a new concept to calculate momentum, shadow range.
What is range?
Traditionally, True Range (TR) is the current high minus the current low of each bar in the timeframe. This is often used successfully on its own in indicators, or as a moving average in ATR (Average True Range).
To calculate range, SRI uses an innovative calculation of current bar range that also considers the previous bar. It calculates the difference between its maximum upward and maximum downward values over the number of bars the user chooses (by adjusting ‘Range lookback’).
What is shadow range?
True Range (TR) uses elements in its calculation (the highs and lows of the bar) that are also visible on the chart bars. Shadow range does not, though.
SRI calculates shadow range in a similar formula to range, except that this time it works out the difference between the minimum upward and minimum downward movement. This movement is by its nature less than the maximums, hence a shadow of it. Although more subtle, shadow range is significant, because it is quantifiable, and goes in one direction or another.
Finally, SRI smoothes shadow range and plots it as a histogram, and also smoothes and plots range as a signal line. Useful up and down triangles show trend changes, which optionally colour the chart bars.
Here’s an example of a long trade setup:
In summary, Shadow Range Index identifies and traces maximum and minimum bar range movement both up and down, and plots them as centred oscillators. The dynamics between the two can provide insights into the chart's performance and future direction.

RSI Market Regime FinderThe Relative Strength Index Market Regime
Imagine the RSI as a tool that helps you figure out if a stock or any other asset is overbought or oversold. It’s like trying to see if a party is too crowded or too empty.
The RSI measures the speed and change of price movements. When it’s high, like above 70, it suggests that the asset might be overbought. Think of it like everyone rushing in to buy the latest cool thing, and maybe it’s getting a bit too popular. On the flip side, if the RSI is low, below 30, it implies that the asset might be oversold. This is like when nobody wants to go to a party, and it might be a good time to check it out because things could pick up.
Now, why does this matter? Well, it gives you a hint about potential reversals in the market. If something is overbought, it might be time for a cool-down, and if it’s oversold, there might be a chance for a comeback. Traders often use RSI to get a sense of whether an asset is in a strong trend or if it’s about to change direction. So, in a nutshell, RSI is like a party meter for the market. It helps you gauge if things are getting too wild or if it’s a bit quiet, giving you a heads-up on potential changes in the market vibe.
Creating the Regime Detection Indicator
A market regime is essentially the prevailing state or condition of the financial markets at a given time. It’s like saying the market can have different modes or phases, just like a person can be happy, sad, or somewhere in between.
Now, these market regimes can be broadly categorized based on trends. Imagine a market in a strong upward trend — everyone’s feeling optimistic, prices are going up, and it’s like a bull (that’s the term for a rising market) is running around.
On the flip side, if the market is in a downtrend, it’s like a bear (that’s the term for a falling market) is dominating. People might be a bit more cautious, prices are dropping, and it’s generally a less optimistic atmosphere.
The tricky part is that markets aren’t always in a clear-cut bull or bear state. Sometimes they’re just moving sideways, not going up or down much. That’s another market regime, often called a “sideways” or “range-bound” market.
The conditions of the creation of the indicator follow these assumptions:
A bullish regime is taking place whenever the RSI is above 50 but below 75 while the last three RSI values were above 46.
A bearish regime is taking place whenever the RSI is below 50 but above 25 while the last three RSI values were below 54.
The script is super simple to use. Basically, whenever the green line is in progress, a bullish regime is taking place, and whenever the red line is in progress, a bearish regime is taking place.
Long strategies fit well within a bullish regime while short strategies fit well within a bearish regime.

1. Identifying a trending market, where today's price is making a 20-day high (17-18 day highs are also fine)
Note this is configurable by setting the trending period variable (defaults to 20)
For example if price is making a 20 period high or 20 period low, it will show a triangle up/down above the candle.
2. Identify the high bar in the uptrend
3. Go short once the price action closes below the low of this high bar
4. The initial stop is the high of the high bar.
5. If you are in the trade on the third day or period, use a 2 bar trailing stop.
You can check 2-bar trailing stop to draw the line, defaults to off.
Stop is indicated by the white dot.

let me know and I'll credit here.
