100w EMA-SMA cloud, 200wSMA floorRepresents a support band for the full bull/bear market cycles. Bull markets tend to hold the 100w EMA over the 100w SMA. When the flippening is produced, historically for BTCUSD there is a long bear market which leads to a 200w SMA support. Then, when the 100w EMA gets above the 100w SMA again, the bear market is motly over and the bullrun starts again.
BANDSTrend indicator. It is based on a simple moving average, the maximum and minimum of this moving average for the period. When the moving average coincides with its maximum for the period , the trend is rising, when the moving average coincides with its minimum for the period, the trend is falling. The optimal periods should be selected for each timeframe and trading instrument.

Dynamic Volatility EnvelopeDynamic Volatility Envelope: Indicator Overview
The Dynamic Volatility Envelope is an advanced, multi-faceted technical indicator designed to provide a comprehensive view of market trends, volatility, and potential future price movements. It centers around a customizable linear regression line, enveloped by dynamically adjusting volatility bands. The indicator offers rich visual feedback through gradient coloring, candle heatmaps, a background volatility pulse, and an on-chart trend strength meter.
Core Calculation Mechanism
Linear Regression Core :
-A central linear regression line is calculated based on a user-defined source (e.g., close, hl2) and lookback period.
-The regression line can be optionally smoothed using an Exponential Moving Average (EMA) to reduce noise.
-The slope of this regression line is continuously calculated to determine the current trend direction and strength.
Volatility Channel :
-Dynamic bands are plotted above and below a central basis line. This basis is typically the calculated regression line but shifts to an EMA in Keltner mode.
-The width of these bands is determined by market volatility, using one of three user-selectable modes:
ATR Mode : Bandwidth is a multiple of the Average True Range (ATR).
Standard Deviation Mode : Bandwidth is a multiple of the Standard Deviation of the source data.
Keltner Mode (EMA-based ATR) : ATR-based bands are plotted around a central Keltner EMA line, offering a smoother channel.
The channel helps identify dynamic support and resistance levels and assess market volatility.
Future Projection :
The indicator can project the current regression line and its associated volatility bands into the future for a user-defined number of bars. This provides a visual guide for potential future price pathways based on current trend and volatility characteristics.
Candle Heatmap Coloring :
-Candle bodies and/or wicks/borders can be colored based on the price's position within the upper and lower volatility bands.
-Colors transition in a gradient from bearish (when price is near the lower band) through neutral (mid-channel) to bullish (when price is near the upper band), providing an intuitive visual cue of price action relative to the dynamic envelope.
Background Volatility Pulse :
The chart background color can be set to dynamically shift based on a ratio of short-term to long-term ATR. This creates a "pulse" effect, where the background subtly changes color to indicate rising or falling market volatility.
Trend Strength Meter :
An on-chart text label displays the current trend status (e.g., "Strong Bullish", "Neutral", "Bearish") based on the calculated slope of the regression line relative to user-defined thresholds for normal and strong trends.
Key Features & Components
-Dynamic Linear Regression Line: Core trend indicator with optional smoothing and slope-based gradient coloring.
-Multi-Mode Volatility Channel: Choose between ATR, Standard Deviation, or Keltner (EMA-based ATR) calculations for band width.
-Customizable Vertical Gradient Channel Fills: Visually distinct fills for upper and lower channel segments with user-defined top/bottom colors and gradient spread.
-Future Projection: Extrapolates regression line and volatility bands to forecast potential price paths.
-Price-Action Based Candle Heatmap: Intuitive candle coloring based on position within the volatility channel, with adjustable gradient midpoint.
-Volatility-Reactive Background Gradient: Subtle background color shifts to reflect changes in market volatility.
-On-Chart Trend Strength Meter: Clear textual display of current trend direction and strength.
-Extensive Visual Customization: Fine-tune colors, line styles, widths, and gradient aggressiveness for most visual elements.
-Comprehensive Tooltips: Detailed explanations for every input setting, ensuring ease of use and understanding.
Visual Elements Explained
Regression Line : The primary trend line. Its color dynamically changes (e.g., green for uptrend, red-pink for downtrend, neutral for flat) based on its slope, with smooth gradient transitions.
Volatility Channel :
Upper & Lower Bands : These lines form the outer boundaries of the envelope, acting as dynamic support and resistance levels.
Channel Fill : The area between the band center and the outer bands is filled with a vertical gradient. For example, the upper band fill might transition from a darker green near the center to a lighter green at the upper band.
Band Borders : The lines outlining the upper and lower bands, with customizable color and width.
Future Projection Lines & Fill :
Projected Regression Line : An extension of the current regression line into the future, typically styled differently (e.g., dashed).
Projected Channel Bands : Extensions of the upper and lower volatility bands.
Projected Area Fill : A semi-transparent fill between the projected upper and lower bands.
Candle Heatmap Coloring : When enabled, candles are colored based on their closing price's relative position within the channel. Bullish colors appear when price is in the upper part of the channel, bearish in the lower, and neutral in the middle. Users can choose to color the entire candle body or just the wicks and borders.
Background Volatility Pulse : The chart's background color subtly shifts (e.g., between a calm green and an agitated red-pink) to reflect the current volatility regime.
Trend Strength Meter : A text label (e.g., "TREND: STRONG BULLISH") positioned on the chart, providing an at-a-glance summary of the trend.
Configuration Options
Users can tailor the indicator extensively via the settings panel, with options logically grouped:
Core Analysis Engine : Adjust regression source data, lookback period, and EMA smoothing for the regression line.
Regression Line Visuals : Control visibility, line width, trend-based colors (uptrend, downtrend, flat), slope thresholds for trend definition, strong slope multiplier (for Trend Meter), and color gradient sharpness.
Volatility Channel Configuration : Select band calculation mode (ATR, StdDev, Keltner), set relevant periods and multipliers. Customize colors for vertical gradient fills (upper/lower, top/bottom), border line colors, widths, and the gradient spread factor for fills.
Future Projection Configuration : Toggle visibility, set projection length (number of bars), line style, and colors for projected regression and band areas.
Appearance & Candle Theme : Set default bull/bear candle colors, enable/disable candle heatmap, choose if body color matches heatmap, and configure heatmap gradient target colors (bull, neutral, bear) and the gradient's midpoint.
Background Volatility Pulse : Enable/disable the background effect and configure short/long ATR periods for the volatility calculation.
Trend Strength Meter : Enable/disable the meter, and choose its on-chart position and text size.
Interpretation Notes
-The Regression Line is the primary indicator of trend direction. Its slope and color provide immediate insight.
-The Volatility Bands serve as dynamic support and resistance zones. Price approaching or touching these bands may indicate potential turning points or breakouts. The width of the channel itself reflects market volatility – widening suggests increasing volatility, while narrowing suggests consolidation.
Future Projections are not predictions but rather an extension of current conditions. They can help visualize potential areas where price might interact with projected support/resistance if the current trend and volatility persist.
Candle Heatmap Coloring offers a quick visual assessment of where price is trading within the dynamic envelope, highlighting strength or weakness relative to the channel.
The Background Volatility Pulse gives a contextual feel for overall market agitation or calmness.
This indicator is designed to be a comprehensive analytical tool. Its signals and visualizations are best used in conjunction with other technical analysis techniques, price action study, and robust risk management practices. It is not intended as a standalone trading system.

WaveTrend Dynamic (Lazy Bear Style)█ OVERVIEW
The WaveTrend Dynamic indicator (in the style of Lazy Bear) is an advanced tool based on the Exponential Smoothing Average (ESA), which adapts to the volatility and price of a financial instrument. It is more flexible than the classic WaveTrend but shares a similar concept of bands around a main oscillator line.
The indicator uses dynamic bands calculated as distances from the ESA, with their width adjustable via the "level" parameter. This allows it to be tailored to various markets, timeframes, and volatility conditions, making it easier to identify trends, reversal points, and buy/sell signals.
█ CONCEPTS
The WaveTrend Dynamic combines oscillator functions with trend analysis. Below, we explain the key components in a simple way, understandable even for beginner users.
Core Calculations
The indicator relies on the adaptive ESA and a few straightforward steps:
1 — ESA (Adaptive Average): Calculated as a smoothed average of the price (from high, low, and close, or HLC3) using the ESA Length parameter (default: 10). This number determines how many past candles are considered in the calculation. The ESA quickly responds to price changes, helping to track trends.
2 — Deviation (D): Measures how much the price deviates from the ESA, factoring in market volatility. This allows the indicator to adapt to different instruments.
3 — Price Distance Indicator (CI): Shows how far the price is from the ESA relative to market volatility. This forms the basis for the main indicator line, reacting to price movements.
4 — WT1 (WaveTrend 1): The main line, smoothing the Price Distance Indicator (CI) with the Average Length parameter (default: 21). It reflects the direction of price movement and momentum.
5 — WT2 (WaveTrend 2): A signal line that further smooths WT1 (with a period of 4). It helps confirm signals through crossovers with WT1.
6 — Bands (UpperBand and LowerBand): These form a dynamic channel around the ESA. Their width depends on the level parameter (default: 100). Wider bands result in fewer but more reliable signals. In the original WaveTrend, the oscillator bands use lower values, such as 50 or 60. To achieve classic oscillator signals (more frequent WT1/WT2 crossovers outside the bands), set the level to 50–60.
Trend Identification
The indicator identifies two types of trends:
• Major Trend: Determined by the position of WT1 relative to the ESA. When WT1 is above the ESA, it indicates a bullish trend. When below, it signals a bearish trend. Line and fill colors reflect this trend.
• Mini-Trend: Based on WT1 and WT2 crossovers. When the lines cross, they change to the same color, signaling short-term changes or reversal points. This is ideal for quick trading decisions.
Visuals and Effects
• WT1 and WT2 Lines: Scaled to price and displayed on the price chart for easier analysis.
• Fills: Between the bands (UpperBand/LowerBand) and between WT1/WT2, with a "wave" effect that adjusts transparency based on the trend (green for bullish, red for bearish).
• Signals: Three types—return-to-band, WT1/WT2 crossovers outside the bands, and crossovers inside the bands. Signals are displayed as triangles with different colors for buy and sell.
█ FEATURES
Detailed features of the indicator, aligned with the order of settings in the script:
• Basic Parameters: ESA Length — controls ESA smoothing; Average Length — affects WT1 responsiveness; level (WT Level) — adjusts band width for signal filtering.
• Display Elements: Options to show/hide ESA, bands, WT1/WT2; customizable colors for lines, fills, and the wave effect.
• Signals: Three signal groups (return-to-band, crossovers outside bands, crossovers inside bands) with display and color customization options.
█ HOW TO USE
1 — Add the indicator to your TradingView chart and adjust parameters: — Increase ESA Length and Average Length for low-volatility markets (e.g., stocks), or decrease for cryptocurrencies or forex. — Set level to 50–60 for classic WaveTrend signals with WT1/WT2 crossovers outside bands. The default value of 100 creates wider bands and fewer signals.
2 — Analyze trends: — Major trend (WT1 vs. ESA) shows the overall market direction. — Mini-trends (WT1/WT2 crossovers) help time short-term entries.
3 — Use signals: — Return-to-band: Buy at the lower band, sell at the upper band (mean-reversion). — Crossovers outside bands: Indicate strong momentum (with a lower level, e.g., 50). — Crossovers inside bands: Signal weaker trend changes.
4 — Combine with other tools: Use with volume, RSI, or support/resistance for better decisions. Test on historical data to optimize settings.
Nadaraya-Watson Probability [Yosiet]The script calculates and displays probability bands around price movements, offering insights into potential market trends.
Setting Up the Script
Window Size: Determines the length of the window for the Nadaraya-Watson estimation. A larger window smooths the data more but might lag current market conditions.
Bandwidth: Controls the bandwidth for the kernel regression, affecting the smoothness of the probability bands.
Reading the Data Table
The script dynamically updates a table positioned at the bottom right of your chart, providing real-time insights into market probabilities. Here's how to interpret the table:
Table Columns: The table is organized into three columns:
Up: Indicates the probability or relative change percentage for the upper band.
Down: Indicates the probability or relative change percentage for the lower band.
Table Rows: There are two main rows of interest:
P%: Shows the price change percentage difference between the bands and the closing price. A positive value in the "Up" column suggests the upper band is above the current close, indicating potential upward momentum. Conversely, a negative value in the "Down" column suggests downward momentum.
R%: Displays the relative inner change percentage difference between the bands, offering a measure of the market's volatility or stability within the bands.
Utilizing the Insights
Market Trends: A widening gap between the "Up" and "Down" percentages in the "P%" row might indicate increasing market volatility. Traders can use this information to adjust their risk management strategies accordingly.
Entry and Exit Points: The "R%" row provides insights into the relative position of the current price within the probability bands. Traders might consider positions closer to the lower band as potential entry points and positions near the upper band as exit points or take-profit levels.
Conclusion
The Nadaraya-Watson Probability script offers a sophisticated tool for traders looking to incorporate statistical analysis into their trading strategy. By understanding and utilizing the data presented in the script's table, traders can gain insights into market trends and volatility, aiding in decision-making processes. Remember, no indicator is foolproof; always consider multiple data sources and analyses when making trading decisions.
Uptrick: Volatility Weighted CloudIntroduction
The Volatility Weighted Cloud (VWC) is a trend-tracking overlay that combines adaptive volatility-based bands with a multi-source smoothed price cloud to visualize market bias. It provides users with a dynamic structure that adapts to volatility conditions while maintaining a persistent visual record of trend direction. By incorporating configurable smoothing techniques, percentile-ranked volatility, and multi-line cloud construction, the indicator allows traders to interpret price context more effectively without relying on raw price movement alone.
Overview
The script builds a smoothed price basis using the open, and close prices independently, and uses these to construct a layered visual cloud. This cloud serves both as a reference for price structure and a potential area of dynamic support and resistance. Alongside this cloud, adaptive upper and lower bands are plotted using volatility that scales with percentile rank. When price closes above or below these bands, the script interprets that as a breakout and updates the trend bias accordingly.
Candle coloring is persistent and reflects the most recent confirmed signal. Labels can optionally be placed on the chart when the trend bias flips, giving traders additional visual reference points. The indicator is designed to be both flexible and visually compact, supporting different strategies and timeframes through its detailed configuration options.
Originality
This script introduces originality through its combined use of percentile-ranked volatility, adaptive envelope sizing, and multi-source cloud construction. Unlike static-band indicators, the Volatility Weighted Cloud adjusts its band width based on where current volatility ranks within a defined lookback range. This dynamic scaling allows for smoother signal behavior during low-volatility environments and more responsive behavior during high-volatility phases.
Additionally, instead of using a single basis line, the indicator computes two separate smoothed lines for open and close. These are rendered into a shaded visual cloud that reflects price structure more completely than traditional moving average overlays. The use of ALMA and MAD, both less commonly applied in volatility-band overlays, adds further control over smoothing behavior and volatility measurement, enhancing its adaptability across different market types.
Inputs
Group: Core
Basis Length (short-term): The number of bars used for calculating the primary basis line. Affects how quickly the basis responds to price changes.
Basis Type: Option to choose between EMA and ALMA. EMA provides a standard exponential average; ALMA offers a centered, Gaussian-weighted average with reduced lag.
ALMA Offset: Determines the balance point of the ALMA window. Only applies when ALMA is selected.
Sigma: Sets the width of the ALMA smoothing window, influencing how much smoothing is applied.
Basis Smoothing EMA: Adds additional EMA-based smoothing to the computed basis line for noise reduction.
Group: Volatility & Bands
Volatility: Choose between StDev (standard deviation) and MAD (median absolute deviation) for measuring price volatility.
Vol Length (short-term): Length of the window used for calculating volatility.
Vol Smoothing EMA: Smooths the raw volatility value to stabilize band behavior.
Min Multiplier: Minimum multiplier applied to volatility when forming the adaptive bands.
Max Multiplier: Maximum multiplier applied at high volatility percentile.
Volatility Rank Lookback: Number of bars used to calculate the percentile rank of current volatility.
Show Adaptive Bands: Enables or disables the display of upper and lower volatility bands on the chart.
Group: Trend Switch Labels
Show Trend Switch Labels: Toggles the appearance of labels when the trend direction changes.
Label Anchor: Defines whether the labels are anchored to recent highs/lows or to the main basis line.
ATR Length (offset): Length used for calculating ATR, which determines label offset distance.
ATR Offset (multiplier): Multiplies the ATR value to place labels away from price bars for better visibility.
Label Size: Allows selection of label size (tiny to huge) to suit different chart setups.
Features
Adaptive Volatility Bands: The indicator calculates volatility using either standard deviation or MAD. It then applies an EMA smoothing layer and scales the band width dynamically based on the percentile rank of volatility over a user-defined lookback window. This avoids fixed-width bands and allows the indicator to adapt to changing volatility regimes in real time.
Volatility Method Options: Users can switch between two volatility measurement methods:
➤ Standard Deviation (StDev): Captures overall price dispersion, but may be sensitive to spikes.
➤ Median Absolute Deviation (MAD): A more robust measure that reduces the effect of outliers, making the bands less jumpy during erratic price behavior.
Basis Type Options: The core price basis used for cloud and bands can be built from:
➤ Exponential Moving Average (EMA): Fast-reacting and widely used in trend systems.
➤ Arnaud Legoux Moving Average (ALMA): A smoother, more centered alternative that offers greater control through offset and sigma parameters.
Multi-Line Basis Cloud: The cloud is formed by plotting two individually smoothed basis lines from open and close prices. A filled area is created between the open and close basis lines. This cloud serves as a dynamic support or resistance zone, allowing users to identify possible reversal areas. Price moving through or rejecting from the cloud can be interpreted contextually, especially when combined with band-based signals.
Persistent Trend Bias Coloring: The indicator uses the last confirmed breakout (above upper band or below lower band) to determine bias. This bias is reflected in the color of every subsequent candle, offering a persistent visual cue until a new signal is triggered. It helps simplify trend recognition, especially in choppy or sideways markets.
Trend Switch Labels: When enabled, the script places labeled markers at the exact bar where the bias direction switches. Labels are anchored either to recent highs/lows or to the main basis line, and spaced vertically using an ATR-based offset. This allows the trader to quickly locate historical trend transitions.
Alert Conditions: Two built-in alert conditions are available:
➤ Long Signal: Triggered when the close crosses above the upper adaptive band.
➤ Short Signal: Triggered when the close crosses below the lower adaptive band.
These conditions can be used for custom alerts, automation, or external signaling tools.
Display Control and Flexibility: Users can disable the adaptive bands for a cleaner layout while keeping the basis cloud and candle coloring active. The indicator can be tuned for fast or slow response depending on the strategy in use, and is suitable for intraday, swing, or position trading.
Summary
The Volatility Weighted Cloud is a configurable trend-following overlay that uses adaptive volatility bands and a structured cloud system to help visualize market bias. By combining EMA or ALMA smoothing with percentile-ranked volatility and a four-line price structure, it provides a flexible and informative charting layer. Its key strengths lie in the use of dynamic envelopes, visually persistent trend indication, and clearly defined breakout zones that adapt to current volatility conditions.

Magic Linear Regression Channel [MW]Introduction
The Magic Linear Regression Channel indicator provides users with a way to quickly include a linear regression channel ANYWHERE on their chart, in order to find channel breakouts and bounces within any time period. It uses a novel method that allows users to adjust the start and end period of the regression channel in order to quickly make adjustments faster, with fewer steps, and with more precision than with any other linear regression channel tool. It includes Fibonacci bands AND a horizontal mode in order for users to quickly define significant price levels based on the high, low, open, and close prices defined by the start period.
Settings
Start Time: This is initially MANUALLY SELECTED ON THE CHART when the indicator is first loaded.
End time: This is also initially MANUALLY SELECTED ON THE CHART when the indicator is first loaded.
Horizontal Line: This forces the baseline to be horizontal. The band distance is defined by the maximum price distance from the band.
Horizontal Line Type: This snaps the horizontal line to the close, high, low, or open price. Or, it can also use a regression calculation for the selected time period to define the y-position of the line.
Extend Line N Bars: How many bars to the left in which to extend the baseline and bands.
Show Baseline ONLY!!: Removes all lines except the baseline and it’s extension.
Add Half Band: Includes a band that is half the distance between the baseline and the top and bottom bands
Add Outer Fibonacci Band: Includes a band that is 1.618 (phi) times the default band distance
Add Inner Fibonacci Band - Upper: Includes a band that is 0.618 (1/phi) times the default band distance
Add Inner Fibonacci Band - Lower: Includes a band that is 0.382 (1 - 1/phi) times the default band distance
Calculations
This indicator uses the least squares approach for generating a straight regression line, which can be reviewed at Wikipedia’s “Simple Linear Regression” page. It sums all of the x-values, and y-values, as well as the sum of the product of corresponding x and y values, and the sum of the squares of the x-values. These values are used to calculate the slope and intercept using the following equations:
slope = (n * sum_xy - sum_x * sum_y) / (n * sum_xx - sum_x * sum_x)
And
intercept = (sum_y - slope * sum_x) / n
The slope and intercept are then used to generate the baseline and the corresponding bands using the user-selected offsets.
How to Use
When the Magic Linear Regression Channel indicator is first added to the chart, there will be a blue prompt behind the “Indicators, Metrics & Strategies” window. Close the window, then select a START POINT by clicking at a desired location on the chart. Next, you will be prompted to select an END POINT. The end point MUST be placed after the START POINT. At this time a channel will be generated. Once you’ve selected the START POINT and END POINT, you can adjust them by dragging them anywhere on the chart. Each adjustment will generate a new channel making it easier for you to quickly visualize and recognize any channel exits and bounces.
The Magic Linear Regression Channel indicator works great at identifying wave patterns. Place the start line at a top or bottom pivot point. Place the end line at the next respective top or bottom pivot. This will give you a complete wave form to work with. When price reaches a band and rejects, it can be a strong indication that price may move back to one of the bands in the channel. If price exits the channel with volume that supports the exit, it may be an indication of a breakout.
You can also use the horizontal mode to identify key levels, then add Fibonacci bands based on regression calculations for the given time period to provide more meaningful areas of support and resistance.
Other Usage Notes and Limitations
Occasionally, off-by-1 errors appear which makes the extended lines protrude at a slightly incorrect angle. This is a known bug and will be addressed in the next release.
It's important for traders to be aware of the limitations of any indicator and to use them as part of a broader, well-rounded trading strategy that includes risk management, fundamental analysis, and other tools that can help with reducing false signals, determining trend direction, and providing additional confirmation for a trade decision. Diversifying strategies and not relying solely on one type of indicator or analysis can help mitigate some of these risks.
Super IndicatorOverview of the Combined Indicator
This combined indicator leverages three major technical analysis tools:
Bollinger Bands
Linear Regression Channels
Scalping Strategy Indicators (RSI, MACD, SMA)
Each of these tools provides unique insights into market conditions, and their integration offers a comprehensive view of price movements, trends, and potential trading signals.
1. Bollinger Bands
Purpose:
Bollinger Bands are used to measure market volatility and identify overbought or oversold conditions.
Components:
Basis (Middle Band): Typically a 20-period Simple Moving Average (SMA).
Upper Band: Basis + (2 * Standard Deviation).
Lower Band: Basis - (2 * Standard Deviation).
Why They Complement:
Bollinger Bands expand and contract based on market volatility. When the bands are narrow, it indicates low volatility and potential for a significant move. Wide bands indicate high volatility. This helps traders gauge the strength of market moves and potential reversals.
2. Linear Regression Channels
Purpose:
Linear Regression Channels identify the overall trend direction and measure deviation from the mean price over a specific period.
Components:
Middle Line (Linear Regression Line): The line of best fit through the price data over a specified period.
Upper and Lower Lines: Channels created by adding/subtracting a multiple of the standard deviation or another deviation measure from the regression line.
Why They Complement:
Linear Regression Channels provide a clear visual representation of the trend direction and the range within which prices typically fluctuate. This can help traders identify trend continuations and reversals, making it easier to spot entry and exit points.
3. Scalping Strategy Indicators
Purpose:
The RSI, MACD, and SMA are used to generate short-term buy and sell signals, which are essential for scalping strategies aimed at capturing quick profits from small price movements.
Components:
RSI (Relative Strength Index): Measures the speed and change of price movements, typically over 14 periods. It helps identify overbought and oversold conditions.
MACD (Moving Average Convergence Divergence): Consists of the MACD line, Signal line, and histogram. It helps identify changes in the strength, direction, momentum, and duration of a trend.
SMA (Simple Moving Average): The average price over a specified period, used to smooth out price data and identify trends.
Why They Complement:
These indicators provide short-term signals that can confirm or refute the signals given by Bollinger Bands and Linear Regression Channels. For example, a buy signal might be more reliable if the price is near the lower Bollinger Band and the MACD crosses above its signal line.
How They Work Together
Scenario 1: Confirming Trend Continuations
Bollinger Bands: Price staying near the upper band suggests a strong uptrend.
Linear Regression Channels: Price staying above the middle line confirms the uptrend.
5-Minute Scalping Strategy: RSI not in overbought territory, and MACD showing bullish momentum confirms continuation.
Scenario 2: Identifying Reversals
Bollinger Bands: Price touching or moving outside the lower band suggests oversold conditions.
Linear Regression Channels: Price at the lower channel line indicates potential support.
5-Minute Scalping Strategy: RSI in oversold territory, and MACD showing a bullish crossover indicates a reversal.
Scenario 3: Volatility Breakouts
Bollinger Bands: Bands contracting indicates low volatility and potential breakout.
Linear Regression Channels: Price moving away from the middle line signals potential breakout direction.
Scalping Strategy: MACD and RSI confirming the breakout direction for entry.
Input Parameters:
Define settings for Bollinger Bands, Linear Regression Channels, and the scalping strategy.
Allow users to customize lengths, multipliers, and colors.
Bollinger Bands Calculation:
Calculate the basis (SMA) and standard deviation.
Derive the upper and lower bands from the basis and standard deviation.
Linear Regression Channel Calculation:
Compute the slope, average, and intercept of the linear regression line.
Calculate deviations to plot upper and lower channel lines.
5-Minute Scalping Strategy:
Calculate RSI, MACD, and SMA for short-term trend analysis.
Define buy and sell conditions based on these indicators.
Plotting and Alerts:
Plot Bollinger Bands and Linear Regression Channels on the chart.
Plot buy and sell signals with shapes.
Set alerts for key conditions like exiting the regression channel bounds and trend switches.
Conclusion
By combining Bollinger Bands, Linear Regression Channels, and a 5-minute scalping strategy, this indicator offers a robust tool for traders. Bollinger Bands provide volatility insights, Linear Regression Channels highlight trend direction and potential reversals, and the scalping strategy offers precise entry and exit points. Together, these tools can enhance a trader's ability to make informed decisions in various market conditions.
Adaptive Trend Breaks Adaptive Trend Breaks
## WHAT IT DOES
This script is a modified and enhanced version of "Trendline Breakouts With Targets" concept by ChartPrime.
Adaptive Trend Breaks (ATB) is a trendline breakout system optimized for scalping liquid futures contracts. The indicator automatically draws dynamic support and resistance trendlines based on pivot points, then generates trade signals when price breaks through these levels with confirmation filters. It includes automated target and stop-loss placement with real-time P&L tracking in dollars.
## HOW IT WORKS
**Trendline Detection Method:**
The indicator uses pivot high/low detection to identify significant price turning points. When a new pivot forms, it calculates the slope between consecutive pivots to draw dynamic trendlines. These lines extend forward based on the established trend angle, creating actionable support and resistance zones.
**Band System:**
Around each trendline, the script creates a "band" using a volatility-adjusted calculation: `ATR(14) * 0.2 * bandwidth multiplier / 2`. This adaptive band accounts for current market conditions - wider during volatile periods, tighter during quiet markets.
**Breakout Logic:**
A breakout signal triggers when:
1. Price closes beyond the trendline + band zone
2. Volume exceeds the 20-period moving average by your set multiplier (default 1.2x)
3. Price is within Regular Trading Hours (9:30-16:00 EST) if session filter enabled
4. Current ATR meets minimum volatility threshold (prevents trading dead markets)
**Target & Stop Calculation:**
Upon breakout confirmation:
- **Entry**: Trendline breach point
- **Target**: Entry ± (bandwidth × target multiplier) - default 8x for quick scalps
- **Stop**: Entry ± (bandwidth × stop multiplier) - default 8x for 1:1 risk/reward
- Multipliers adjust automatically to market volatility through the ATR-based band
**P&L Conversion:**
The script converts point movements to dollars using:
```
Dollar P&L = (Price Points × Contract Point Value × Quantity)
```
For example, a 10-point NQ move with 2 contracts = 10 × $20 × 2 = $400
## HOW TO USE IT
**Setup:**
1. Select your instrument (NQ/ES/YM/RTY) - point values auto-configure
2. Set contract quantity for accurate dollar P&L
3. Choose pivot period (lower = more signals but more noise, default 5 for scalping)
4. Adjust bandwidth multiplier if trendlines are too tight/loose (1-5 range)
**Filters Configuration:**
- **Volume Filter**: Requires breakout volume > moving average × multiplier. Increase multiplier (1.5-2.0) for higher conviction trades
- **Session Filter**: Enable to trade only RTH. Disable for 24-hour trading
- **ATR Filter**: Prevents signals during low volatility. Increase minimum % for more active markets only
**Risk Management:**
- Set target/stop multipliers based on your risk tolerance
- 8x bandwidth = approximately 1:1 risk/reward for most liquid futures
- Enable trailing stops for trend-following approach (moves stop to protect profits)
- Adjust line length to see targets further into the future
**Statistics Table:**
- Choose timeframe to analyze: all-time, today, this week, custom days
- Monitor win rate, profit factor, and net P&L in dollars
- Track long vs short performance separately
- See real-time unrealized P&L on active trades
**Reading Signals:**
- **Green triangle below bar** = Long breakout (resistance broken)
- **Red triangle above bar** = Short breakout (support broken)
- **White dashed line** = Entry price
- **Orange line** = Take profit target with dollar value
- **Red line** = Stop loss with dollar value
- **Green checkmark (✓)** = Target hit, winning trade
- **Red X (✗)** = Stop hit, losing trade
## WHAT IT DOES NOT DO
**Limitations to Understand:**
- Does not predict future trendline formations - it reacts to breakouts after they occur
- Historical trendlines disappear after breakout (not kept on chart for clarity)
- Requires sufficient volatility - may not signal in extremely quiet markets
- Volume filter requires exchange volume data (not available on all symbols)
- Statistics are indicator-based simulations, not actual trading results
- Does not account for slippage, commissions, or order fills
## BEST PRACTICES
**Recommended Settings by Market:**
- **NQ (Nasdaq)**: Default settings work well, consider volume multiplier 1.3-1.5
- **ES (S&P 500)**: Slightly slower, try period 7-8, volume 1.2
- **YM (Dow)**: Lower volatility, reduce bandwidth to 1.5-2
- **RTY (Russell)**: Higher volatility, increase bandwidth to 3-4
**Risk Management:**
- Never risk more than 2-3% of account per trade
- Use contract quantity calculator: Max Risk $ ÷ (Stop Distance × Point Value)
- Start with 1 contract while learning the system
- Backtest your specific timeframe and instrument before live trading
**Optimization Tips:**
- Increase pivot period (7-10) for fewer but higher-quality signals
- Raise volume multiplier (1.5-2.0) in choppy markets
- Lower target/stop multipliers (5-6x) for tighter profit taking
- Use trailing stops in strong trending conditions
- Disable session filter for overnight gaps and Asia session moves
## TECHNICAL DETAILS
**Key Calculations:**
- Pivot Detection: `ta.pivothigh(high, period, period/2)` and `ta.pivotlow(low, period, period/2)`
- Slope Calculation: `(newPivot - oldPivot) / (newTime - oldTime)`
- Adaptive Band: `min(ATR(14) * 0.2, close * 0.002) * multiplier / 2`
- Breakout Confirmation: Price crosses trendline + 10% of band threshold
**Data Requirements:**
- Minimum bars in view: 500 for proper pivot calculation
- Volume data required for volume filter accuracy
- Intraday timeframes recommended (1min - 15min) for scalping
- Works on any timeframe but optimized for fast execution
**Performance Metrics:**
All statistics calculate based on indicator signals:
- Tracks every signal as a trade from entry to TP/SL
- P&L in actual contract dollar values
- Win rate = (Winning trades / Total trades) × 100
- Profit factor = Gross profit / Gross loss
- Separates long/short performance for bias analysis
## IDEAL FOR
- Futures scalpers and day traders
- Traders who prefer visual trendline breakouts
- Those wanting automated TP/SL placement
- Traders tracking performance in dollar terms
- Multiple timeframe analysis (compare 1min vs 5min signals)
## NOT SUITABLE FOR
- Swing trading (targets too close)
- Stocks/forex without modifying point values
- Extremely low timeframes (<30 seconds) - too much noise
- Markets without volume data if using volume filter
- Illiquid contracts (signals may not execute at shown prices)
---
**Settings Summary:**
- Core: Period, bandwidth, extension, trendline style
- Filters: Volume, RTH session, ATR volatility
- Risk: R:R ratio, target/stop multipliers, trailing stop
- Display: Stats table position, size, colors
- Stats: Timeframe selection (all-time to custom days)

Candle Channel█ OVERVIEW
The "Candle Channel" indicator is a versatile technical analysis tool that plots a price channel based on the Simple Moving Average (SMA) of candlestick midpoints. The channel bands, calculated based on candlestick volatility, form dynamic support and resistance levels that adapt to price movements. The script generates signals for reversals from the bands and SMA breakouts, making it useful for both short-term and long-term traders. By adjusting the SMA length, the channel can vary in nature—from a wide channel encapsulating price movement to narrower support/resistance or trend-following bands. The channel width can be further customized using a scaling parameter, allowing adaptation to different trading styles and markets.
█ MECHANISM
Band Calculation
The indicator is based on the following calculations:
Candlestick Midpoint: Calculated as the arithmetic average of the candle’s high and low prices: (high + low) / 2.
Simple Moving Average (SMA): The average of candlestick midpoints over a specified length (default: 20 candles), forming the channel’s centerline.
Average Candle Height: Calculated as the average difference between the high and low prices (high - low) over the same SMA length, serving as a measure of market volatility.
Band Scaling: The user specifies a percentage of the average candle height (default: 200%), which is multiplied by the average height to create an offset. The upper band is SMA + offset, and the lower band is SMA - offset.Example: For an average candle height of 10 points and 200% scaling, the offset is 20 points, meaning the bands are ±20 points from the SMA.
Channel Characteristics: The SMA length determines the channel’s dynamics. Shorter SMA values (10–30) create a wide channel that contains price movement, ideal for scalping or short-term trading. Longer SMA values (above 30, e.g., 50–100) transform the channel into narrower support/resistance or trend-following bands, suitable for longer-term analysis. Band scaling further adjusts the channel width to match market volatility.
Signals
Reversal from Bands: Signals are generated when the price closes outside the band (above the upper or below the lower) and then returns to the channel, indicating a potential trend reversal.
SMA Breakout: Signals are generated when the price crosses the SMA upward (bullish signal) or downward (bearish signal), suggesting potential trend changes.
Visualization
Centerline: The SMA of candlestick midpoints, displayed as a thin line.
Channel Bands: Upper and lower channel boundaries, with customizable colors.
Fill: Options include a gradient (smooth color transition between bands) or solid color. The fill can also be disabled for greater clarity.
█ FEATURES AND SETTINGS
SMA Length: Determines the moving average period (default: 20). Values of 10–30 are suitable for a wide channel containing price movement, ideal for short-term timeframes. Longer values (e.g., 50–100) create narrower support/resistance or trend-following bands, better suited for higher timeframes.
Band Scaling: Percentage of the average candle height (default: 200%). Adjusts the channel width to match market volatility—smaller values (e.g., 50–100%) for narrower bands, larger values (e.g., 200–300%) for wider channels.
Fill Type: Gradient, solid, or no fill, allowing customization to user preferences.
Colors: Options to change the colors of bands, fill, and signals for better readability.
Signals: Options to enable/disable reversal signals from bands and SMA breakout signals.
█ HOW TO USE
Add the script to your chart in TradingView by clicking "Add to Chart" in the Pine Editor.
Adjust input parameters in the script settings:
SMA Length: Set to 10–30 for a wide channel containing price movement, suitable for scalping or short-term trading. Set above 30 (e.g., 50–100) for narrower support/resistance or trend-following bands.
Band Scaling: Adjust the channel width to market volatility. Smaller values (50–100%) for tighter support/resistance bands, larger values (200–300%) for wider channels containing price movement.
Fill Type and Colors: Choose a gradient for aesthetics or a solid fill for clarity.
Analyze signals:
Reversal Signals: Triangles above (bearish) or below (bullish) candles indicate potential reversal points.
SMA Breakout Signals: Circles above (bearish) or below (bullish) candles indicate trend changes.
Test the indicator on different instruments and timeframes to find optimal settings for your trading style.
█ LIMITATIONS
The indicator may generate false signals in highly volatile or consolidating markets.
On low-liquidity charts (e.g., exotic currency pairs), the bands may be less reliable.
Effectiveness depends on properly matching parameters to the market and timeframe.
Multi Scanner Plot & Table V1Here's how to interpret each column in the table:
Price vs MAs:
What it shows: Where the current price is relative to the short-term (e.g., 20-period) and long-term (e.g., 50-period) Simple Moving Averages (SMAs) calculated on your current chart's timeframe.
Interpretation:
Above Both (Green background): Price is above both the short and long MAs. Generally considered a bullish sign for the current trend.
Below Both (Red background): Price is below both MAs. Generally considered a bearish sign.
Mixed (Gray background): Price is between the two MAs (e.g., above the short but below the long, or vice-versa). Indicates indecision or a potential trend change.
RSI Value:
What it shows: The actual numerical value of the Relative Strength Index (RSI) calculated on your current chart's timeframe.
Interpretation: Just the raw RSI number (e.g., 65.32). The background is always gray. You compare this value to standard overbought/oversold levels (like 70/30) or the levels defined in the script's inputs.
RSI Status:
What it shows: Interprets the RSI Value based on the Overbought/Oversold levels set in the script's inputs (default 70/30). Calculated on your current chart's timeframe.
Interpretation:
Overbought (Red background): RSI is above the overbought level (e.g., > 70). Suggests the asset might be due for a pullback or reversal downwards. Red indicates a potentially bearish condition.
Oversold (Green background): RSI is below the oversold level (e.g., < 30). Suggests the asset might be due for a bounce or reversal upwards. Green indicates a potentially bullish condition.
Neutral (Gray background): RSI is between the oversold and overbought levels.
Last Sig Price:
What it shows: The price level where the last "SIG NOW" Buy or Sell signal occurred on your current chart's timeframe.
Interpretation: Helps you see the entry price of the most recent short-term signal generated by this script. The background color matches the signal type: Green for the last Buy signal, Red for the last Sell signal. N/A if no signal has occurred yet.
SIG NOW:
What it shows: This is the main short-term signal generated by the script based on conditions on your current chart's timeframe. It combines the "Price vs MAs" status and specific RSI conditions (price must be above/below both MAs and RSI must be within a certain range defined in the inputs).
Interpretation:
BUY (Green background): The specific buy conditions are met right now. (Price above both MAs AND RSI is strong but not necessarily overbought).
SELL (Red background): The specific sell conditions are met right now. (Price below both MAs AND RSI is weak but not necessarily oversold).
NEUTRAL (Gray background): Neither the Buy nor the Sell conditions are currently met.
ALERT:
What it shows: Flags unusual volume activity on the current bar compared to the recent average volume (calculated on your current chart's timeframe).
Interpretation:
SPIKE (Yellow background, black text): Current volume is significantly higher than the recent average (defined by the Volume Spike Multiplier). Can indicate strong interest or a potential climax.
DUMP (Purple background): Current volume is significantly lower than the recent average (defined by the Volume Dump Multiplier). Can indicate fading interest.
NONE (Gray background): Volume is within the normal range for the lookback period.
SD$:
What it shows: The price level where the last Volume Spike or Dump occurred on your current chart's timeframe.
Interpretation: Shows the price associated with the most recent significant volume event. The background color indicates the type of the last event: Green if the last event was a Spike, Red if the last event was a Dump. N/A if no Spike/Dump has occurred yet.
BB Value (%B):
What it shows: This relates to Bollinger Bands, but specifically calculated on a Higher Timeframe (HTF) that you can set in the inputs (e.g., Daily BBs while viewing an Hourly chart). It shows the Bollinger Band Percent B (%B) value for that HTF. %B measures where the HTF closing price is relative to the HTF upper and lower bands.
Interpretation:
Value > 1: HTF price closed above the HTF upper Bollinger Band.
Value < 0: HTF price closed below the HTF lower Bollinger Band.
Value between 0 and 1: HTF price closed within the HTF Bollinger Bands (e.g., 0.5 is exactly on the middle band).
The background is always gray.
LTS (Long Term Signal):
What it shows: A signal derived only from the Higher Timeframe (HTF) Bollinger Bands.
Interpretation:
BUY (Green background): The HTF price closed above the HTF upper Bollinger Band (see BB Value > 1). Considered a strong bullish signal from the higher timeframe perspective.
SELL (Red background): The HTF price closed below the HTF lower Bollinger Band (see BB Value < 0). Considered a strong bearish signal from the higher timeframe perspective.
NEUTRAL (Gray background): The HTF price closed within the HTF Bollinger Bands.
How to Understand Bollinger Bands and Signals in this Context:
Bollinger Bands are primarily used for the Long Term Signal (LTS) column. This script calculates BBs on a higher timeframe (you choose which one, or it defaults to the chart's timeframe if left blank).
The "LTS" signal triggers:
A BUY when the price on that higher timeframe closes above its upper Bollinger Band. This often indicates strong momentum or a potential breakout.
A SELL when the price on that higher timeframe closes below its lower Bollinger Band. This often indicates strong negative momentum or a potential breakdown.
The "BB Value" column gives you the raw %B number from that same higher timeframe, showing you exactly where the price is relative to the bands (is it just barely above/below, or way outside?).
The script does not directly use Bollinger Bands from the current chart timeframe for the "SIG NOW" or other table signals. The main short-term signals ("SIG NOW") rely on Moving Averages and RSI on the current timeframe. The LTS provides a longer-term perspective using HTF Bollinger Bands.
In summary: Look at the table to quickly gauge:
Short-term trend (Price vs MAs).
Short-term momentum (RSI Status, SIG NOW).
Recent short-term entry points (Last Sig Price).
Current volume anomalies (ALERT).
Long-term strength/weakness based on HTF Bollinger Bands (LTS, BB Value).
Combine these pieces of information to get a more rounded view of the current market conditions according to this specific script's logic.
MA Rainbow-AYNETSummary of the "MA Rainbow"
The 200 MA Rainbow script creates a visually appealing representation of multiple moving averages (MAs) with varying lengths and colors to provide insights into price trends and market momentum.
Key Features:
Base Moving Average:
A starting point (ma_length, default 200) is used as the foundation for all other bands.
Rainbow Bands:
The script generates multiple moving averages (bands) with increasing lengths, spaced by a user-defined band_spacing multiplier.
The number of bands is controlled by rainbow_bands, allowing up to 7 bands.
Moving Average Types:
Users can select the MA type: Simple (SMA), Exponential (EMA), or Weighted (WMA).
Dynamic Colors:
Each band is assigned a unique color from a predefined rainbow palette, making the chart visually distinct.
Inputs for Customization:
ma_length: Adjust the base period of the moving average.
rainbow_bands: Set the number of bands to display.
band_spacing: Control the spread between bands.
How It Works:
Precomputing Bands:
Each band’s length is calculated based on the base length (ma_length) and a multiplier (band_spacing).
For example, if ma_length = 200 and band_spacing = 0.2, the lengths of the first 3 bands will be:
Band 1: 200
Band 2: 240
Band 3: 280
Global Plotting:
Each band’s moving average is precomputed using the selected type (SMA, EMA, or WMA).
Bands are plotted globally to avoid scope issues, ensuring compatibility with Pine Script rules.
Color Cycling:
Colors are assigned dynamically from a rainbow palette (red, orange, yellow, green, blue, purple, teal).
Use Case:
The 200 MA Rainbow helps traders:
Visualize market trends with multiple layers of moving averages.
Identify areas of support and resistance.
Gauge momentum through the spread and alignment of bands.
Customization:
Users can:
Change the base moving average length (ma_length).
Adjust the number of bands (rainbow_bands).
Control the spread between bands with band_spacing.
Select the moving average type (SMA, EMA, WMA).
Application:
Copy the script into the Pine Editor in TradingView.
Apply it to your chart to observe the Rainbow MA visualization.
Adjust inputs to match your trading style or strategy.
This script is a versatile tool for both beginner and advanced traders, providing a colorful way to track price trends and market conditions. 🌈

The Volume MAs Oscillator is a powerful volume‑adjusted momentum tool that combines custom‑weighted moving averages on volume‑weighted price with smoothed deviation bands. It offers dynamic insights into trend direction, overbought/oversold conditions, and relative valuation — all within a single indicator
Key Features
Volume‑Adjusted Moving Averages: Moving averages can be volume‑weighted using the following formula: a moving average of (Price × Volume) divided by a moving average of Volume. This formula is applied across more than 14 different moving averages; however, it is not used with the VWMA, as VWMA is inherently a volume-weighted moving average.
Percentage Oscillator: Displays the normalized difference: (source – MA) / MA * 100, centered around zero for easy interpretation of strength and direction.
Deviation Bands: Builds upper and lower bands from standard deviation of the oscillator over a selected lookback, with distinct positive/negative multipliers and optional smoothing to reduce noise.
Inputs: Band Length, Band Smoothing, Positive Band Multiplier, Negative Band Multiplier.
Multi‑Mode Signal System:
1. Trend Mode – Colors oscillator according to breaks above (bullish) or below (bearish) respective bands.
2. Reversion Mode – Inverses color logic: signals overextensions beyond bands as reversion opportunities, greys inside the bands.
3. Valuation Mode – Applies a gradient color scale (UpC ⇄ DnC) to reflect relative valuation strength.
Customizable Visuals: Select from 5 pre‑set palettes—Classic, Mystic, Major Themes, Accented, Royal—or define your own custom bullish/bearish colors.
Chart enhancements include color‑coded oscillator line, deviation bands, glow‑effect midline at zero, background shading and candlestick/bar coloring aligned to signal mode.
Built‑In Signals: Automatically plots ▲ oversold and ▼ overbought markers upon crosses of lower/upper bands (in trend or reversion modes), enhancing signal clarity.
How It Works
MA Calculation – Applies the selected MA type to price × volume (normalized by MA of volume) or direct VWMA.
Oscillator Output – Calculates the % difference of source vs. derived MA.
Band Construction – Computes rolling standard deviation; applies user‑defined multipliers; smooths bands with exponential blending.
Mode-Dependent Coloring & Signals –
• Trend: Highlights strength trends via band cross coloring.
• Reversion: Flags extremes beyond bands as potential pullbacks.
• Valuation: Uses gradient to reflect oscillator’s position relative to recent range.
Signal Markers – Deploys arrows and color rules to flag overbought (▼) or oversold (▲) conditions when bands are breached.
Practical Use
Trend Confirmation – In Trend Mode, use upward price_diff cross above upper band as bullish; downward cross below lower band as bearish.
Mean Reversion – In Reversion Mode, fading extremes beyond bands may precede a retracement.
Relative Valuation – Valuation Mode shines when assessing how extended price_diff is, with gradient colors indicating valuation zones.
Bars/candles color‑coded to oscillator state boosts clarity of market tone and allows for rapid visual scanning.
Customization
Adjust MA type/length to tune responsiveness vs. smoothing.
Configure band settings for volatility sensitivity.
Toggle between signal modes for trend-following or reversion strategies.
Stylish visuals: pick or customize color schemes to match your chart setup.

Dynamic Range Filter with Trend Candlesticks (Zeiierman)█ Overview
Dynamic Range Filter with Trend Candlesticks (Zeiierman) is a volatility-responsive trend engine that adapts in real-time to market structure, offering a clean and intelligent visualization of directional bias. It blends dynamic range calculation with customizable smoothing techniques and layered trend confirmation logic, making it ideal for traders who rely on clear trend direction, structural range analysis, and momentum-based candlestick signals.
By measuring scaled volatility over configurable lengths and applying advanced moving average techniques, this indicator filters out market noise while preserving true directional intent. Complementing this, a dual-trend system (range-based and candle-based) enhances clarity and responsiveness, particularly during shifting market conditions.
█ How It Works
⚪ Scaled Volatility Band Calculation
At the core lies a volatility engine that constructs adaptive range bands around price using smoothed high/low calculations. The bands are dynamically adjusted using:
High/Low Smoothing – Applies a moving average to the raw high and low data before calculating the range.
Scaled Range Volatility – A 2.618 multiplier scales the distance between smoothed highs and lows, forming a responsive volatility envelope.
Band Multiplier – Controls how wide the upper/lower range bands extend from the mean.
This filtering process minimizes false signals and highlights only structurally meaningful moves.
⚪ Multi-Type Smoothing Engine
Users can choose from a wide array of smoothing algorithms for trend construction, including:
HMA (default), SMA, EMA, RMA
KAMA – Adapts to market volatility using efficiency ratios.
VIDYA – Momentum-sensitive smoothing using CMO logic.
FRAMA – Dynamically adjusts to fractal dimension in price.
Super Smoother – Ideal for eliminating aliasing in range signals.
This provides the trader with fine-tuned control over reactivity vs. smoothness.
⚪ Trend Detection (Dual Engine)
The indicator includes two independent trend tracking systems:
Main Trend Filter – Based on adaptive volatility band shifts.
Candle Trend Filter – A second-tier confirmation using smoothed candle data, ideal for directional candles and confirmation entries.
█ How to Use
⚪ Trend Confirmation
Use the Trend Line and colored candlesticks for high-probability entries in the trend direction. The more trend layers that align, the higher the confidence.
⚪ Reversal Zones
When the price reaches the outer bands or fails to break them, look for candle color shifts or a crossover in the range to anticipate possible reversals or consolidations.
█ Settings
Scaled Volatility Length – Controls the lookback used to stabilize the base volatility band.
MA Type & Length – Choose and fine-tune the smoothing method (HMA, EMA, KAMA, etc.)
High/Low Smoother – Pre-smoothing for structural high/low banding.
Band Multiplier – Adjusts the width of the dynamic bands.
Trend Length (Candles) – Length used for candle-based trend confirmation.

Lowess Channel + (RSI) [ChartPrime]The Lowess Channel + (RSI) indicator applies the LOWESS (Locally Weighted Scatterplot Smoothing) algorithm to filter price fluctuations and construct a dynamic channel. LOWESS is a non-parametric regression method that smooths noisy data by fitting weighted linear regressions at localized segments. This technique is widely used in statistical analysis to reveal trends while preserving data structure.
In this indicator, the LOWESS algorithm is used to create a central trend line and deviation-based bands. The midline changes color based on trend direction, and diamonds are plotted when a trend shift occurs. Additionally, an RSI gauge is positioned at the end of the channel to display the current RSI level in relation to the price bands.

sum_weighted_xy := sum_weighted_xy + weight * x * y
sum_weighted_x2 := sum_weighted_x2 + weight * x * x
mean_x = sum_weighted_x / sum_weights
mean_y = sum_weighted_y / sum_weights
beta = (sum_weighted_xy - mean_x * mean_y * sum_weights) / (sum_weighted_x2 - mean_x * mean_x * sum_weights)
alpha = mean_y - beta * mean_x
alpha + beta * float(length / 2) // Centered smoothing
⯁ KEY FEATURES
LOWESS Price Filtering – Smooths price fluctuations to reveal the underlying trend with minimal lag.
Dynamic Trend Coloring – The midline changes color based on trend direction (e.g., bullish or bearish).
Trend Shift Diamonds – Marks points where the midline color changes, indicating a possible trend shift.

Median Volume Weighted DeviationMVWD (Median Volume Weighted Deviation)
The Median Volume-Weighted Deviation is a technical trend following indicator that overlays dynamic bands on the price chart, centered around a Volume Weighted Average Price (VWAP). By incorporating volume-weighted standard deviation and its median, it identifies potential overbought and oversold conditions, generating buy and sell signals based on price interactions with the bands. The fill color between the bands visually reflects the current signal, enhancing market sentiment analysis.
How it Works
VWAP Calculation: Computes the Volume-Weighted Average Price over a specific lookback period (n), emphasizing price levels with higher volume.
Volume Weighted Standard Deviation: Measures price dispersion around the VWAP, weighted by volume, over the same period.
Median Standard Deviation: Applies a median filter over (m) periods to smooth the stand deviation, reducing noise in volatility estimates.
Bands: Constructs upper and lower bands by adding and subtracting a multiplier (k) times the median standard deviation from the VWAP
Signals:
Buy Signal: Triggers when the closing price crosses above the upper band.
Sell Signal: Triggers when the closing price crosses below the lower band.
Inputs
Lookback (n): Number of periods for the VWAP and standard deviation calculations. Default is set to 14.
Median Standard Deviation (m): Periods for the median standard deviation. Default is set to 2.
Standard Deviation Multiplier (k): Multiplier to adjust band width. Default is set to 1.7 with a step of 0.1.
Customization
Increase the Lookback (n) for a smoother VWAP and broader perspective, or decrease the value for higher sensitivity.
Adjust Median Standard Deviation (m) to control the smoothness of the standard deviation filter.
Modify the multiplier (k) to widen or narrow the bands based on the market volatility preferences.

🔶 ORIGINALITY The Mean Reversion Cloud (Ornstein-Uhlenbeck) is a unique indicator that applies the Ornstein-Uhlenbeck stochastic process to identify mean-reverting behavior in asset prices. Unlike traditional moving average-based indicators, this model uses an Exponentially Weighted Moving Average (EWMA) to calculate the long-term mean, dynamically adjusting to recent price movements while still considering all historical data. It also incorporates volatility bands, providing a "cloud" that visually highlights overbought or oversold conditions. By calculating the speed of mean reversion (θ) through the autocorrelation of log returns, this indicator offers traders a more nuanced and mathematically robust tool for identifying mean-reversion opportunities. These innovations make it especially useful for markets that exhibit range-bound characteristics, offering timely buy and sell signals based on statistical deviations from the mean.
🔸Adaptive Mean Calculation Traditional MA indicators use fixed lengths, which can lead to lagging signals or over-sensitivity in volatile markets. The Mean Reversion Cloud uses an Exponentially Weighted Moving Average (EWMA), which adapts to price movements by dynamically adjusting its calculation, offering a more responsive mean.
🔸Volatility-Based Cloud Unlike simple moving averages that only plot a single line, the Mean Reversion Cloud surrounds the dynamic mean with volatility bands. These bands, based on standard deviations, provide traders with a visual cue of when prices are statistically likely to revert, highlighting potential reversal zones.
🔸Speed of Reversion (θ) The indicator goes beyond price averages by calculating the speed at which the price reverts to the mean (θ), using the autocorrelation of log returns. This gives traders an additional tool for estimating the likelihood and timing of mean reversion, making the signals more reliable in practice.
🔶 FUNCTIONALITY The Mean Reversion Cloud (Ornstein-Uhlenbeck) indicator is designed to detect potential mean-reversion opportunities in asset prices by applying the Ornstein-Uhlenbeck stochastic process. It calculates a dynamic mean through the Exponentially Weighted Moving Average (EWMA) and plots volatility bands based on the standard deviation of the asset's price over a specified period. These bands create a "cloud" that represents expected price fluctuations, helping traders to identify overbought or oversold conditions. By calculating the speed of reversion (θ) from the autocorrelation of log returns, the indicator offers a more refined way of assessing how quickly prices may revert to the mean. Additionally, the inclusion of volatility provides a comprehensive view of market conditions, allowing for more accurate buy and sell signals.
Let's dive into the details:
🔸Dynamic Mean and Volatility Bands The dynamic mean (μ) is calculated using the EWMA, giving more weight to recent prices but considering all historical data. This process closely resembles the Ornstein-Uhlenbeck (OU) process, which models the tendency of a stochastic variable (such as price) to revert to its mean over time. Volatility bands are plotted around the mean using standard deviation, forming the "cloud" that signals overbought or oversold conditions. The cloud adapts dynamically to price fluctuations and market volatility, making it a versatile tool for mean-reversion strategies. 🞘 How it works Step one: Calculate the dynamic mean (μ) The Ornstein-Uhlenbeck process describes how a variable, such as an asset's price, tends to revert to a long-term mean while subject to random fluctuations. In this indicator, the EWMA is used to compute the dynamic mean (μ), mimicking the mean-reverting behavior of the OU process. Use the EWMA formula to compute a weighted mean that adjusts to recent price movements. Assign exponentially decreasing weights to older data while giving more emphasis to current prices. Step two: Plot volatility bands Calculate the standard deviation of the price over a user-defined period to determine market volatility. Position the upper and lower bands around the mean by adding and subtracting a multiple of the standard deviation. 🞘 How to calculate Exponential Weighted Moving Average (EWMA)
The EWMA dynamically adjusts to recent price movements:
mu_t = lambda * mu_{t-1} + (1 - lambda) * P_t
Where mu_t is the mean at time t, lambda is the decay factor, and P_t is the price at time t. The higher the decay factor, the more weight is given to recent data.
Autocorrelation (ρ) and Standard Deviation (σ)
To measure mean reversion speed and volatility: rho = correlation(log(close), log(close ), length) Where rho is the autocorrelation of log returns over a specified period.
To calculate volatility:
sigma = stdev(close, length)
Where sigma is the standard deviation of the asset's closing price over a specified length.
Upper and Lower Bands
The upper and lower bands are calculated as follows:
upper_band = mu + (threshold * sigma)
lower_band = mu - (threshold * sigma)
Where threshold is a multiplier for the standard deviation, usually set to 2. These bands represent the range within which the price is expected to fluctuate, based on current volatility and the mean.
🞘 Code extract // Calculate Returns
returns = math.log(close / close )
// Calculate Long-Term Mean (μ) using EWMA over the entire dataset
var float ewma_mu = na // Initialize ewma_mu as 'na'
ewma_mu := na(ewma_mu ) ? close : decay_factor * ewma_mu + (1 - decay_factor) * close
mu = ewma_mu
// Calculate Autocorrelation at Lag 1
rho1 = ta.correlation(returns, returns , corr_length)
// Ensure rho1 is within valid range to avoid errors
rho1 := na(rho1) or rho1 <= 0 ? 0.0001 : rho1
// Calculate Speed of Mean Reversion (θ)
theta = -math.log(rho1)
// Calculate Volatility (σ)
sigma = ta.stdev(close, corr_length)
// Calculate Upper and Lower Bands
upper_band = mu + threshold * sigma
lower_band = mu - threshold * sigma
🔸Visualization via Table and Plotshapes
The table shows key statistics such as the current value of the dynamic mean (μ), the number of times the price has crossed the upper or lower bands, and the consecutive number of bars that the price has remained in an overbought or oversold state.
Plotshapes (diamonds) are used to signal buy and sell opportunities. A green diamond below the price suggests a buy signal when the price crosses below the lower band, and a red diamond above the price indicates a sell signal when the price crosses above the upper band.
The table and plotshapes provide a comprehensive visualization, combining both statistical and actionable information to aid decision-making.
🞘 Code extract // Reset consecutive_bars when price crosses the mean
var consecutive_bars = 0
if (close < mu and close >= mu) or (close > mu and close <= mu)
consecutive_bars := 0
else if math.abs(deviation) > 0
consecutive_bars := math.min(consecutive_bars + 1, dev_length)
transparency = math.max(0, math.min(100, 100 - (consecutive_bars * 100 / dev_length)))

🞘 Understanding What to Look For on the Chart
Indicator Behavior:
Observe how the price interacts with the dynamic mean and volatility bands. The price staying within the bands suggests mean-reverting behavior, while crossing the bands signals potential entry points.
The indicator calculates overbought/oversold conditions based on deviation from the mean, highlighted by color-coded cloud areas on the chart.
Crossovers and Deviation:
Look for crossovers between the price and the mean (μ) or the bands. A bullish crossover occurs when the price crosses below the lower band, signaling a potential buying opportunity.
A bearish crossover occurs when the price crosses above the upper band, suggesting a potential sell signal.
Deviations from the mean indicate market extremes. A large deviation indicates that the price is far from the mean, suggesting a potential reversal.
Slope and Direction:
Pay attention to the slope of the mean (μ). A rising slope suggests bullish market conditions, while a declining slope signals a bearish market.
The steepness of the slope can indicate the strength of the mean-reversion trend.
🞘 Possible Entry Signals
Bullish Entry:
Crossover Entry: Enter a long position when the price crosses below the lower band with a positive deviation from the mean.
Confirmation Entry: Use additional indicators like RSI (above 50) or increasing volume to confirm the bullish signal.
Bearish Entry:
Crossover Entry: Enter a short position when the price crosses above the upper band with a negative deviation from the mean.
Confirmation Entry: Look for RSI (below 50) or decreasing volume to confirm the bearish signal.
Deviation Confirmation:
Enter trades when the deviation from the mean is significant, indicating that the price has strayed far from its expected value and is likely to revert.
🞘 Possible Take Profit Strategies
Static Take Profit Levels:
Set predefined take profit levels based on historical volatility, using the upper and lower bands as guides.
Place take profit orders near recent support/resistance levels, ensuring you're capitalizing on the mean-reversion behavior.
Trailing Stop Loss:
Use a trailing stop based on a percentage of the price deviation from the mean to lock in profits as the trend progresses.
Adjust the trailing stop dynamically along the calculated bands to protect profits as the price returns to the mean.
Deviation-Based Exits:
Exit when the deviation from the mean starts to decrease, signaling that the price is returning to its equilibrium.
🞘 Possible Stop-Loss Levels
Initial Stop Loss:
Place an initial stop loss outside the lower band (for long positions) or above the upper band (for short positions) to protect against excessive deviations.
Use a volatility-based buffer to avoid getting stopped out during normal price fluctuations.
Dynamic Stop Loss:
Move the stop loss closer to the mean as the price converges back towards equilibrium, reducing risk.
Adjust the stop loss dynamically along the bands to account for sudden market movements.
🞘 Additional Tips
Combine with Other Indicators:
Enhance your strategy by combining the Mean Reversion Cloud with momentum indicators like MACD, RSI, or Bollinger Bands to confirm market conditions.
Backtesting and Practice:
Backtest the indicator on historical data to understand how it performs in various market environments.
Practice using the indicator on a demo account before implementing it in live trading.
Market Awareness:
Keep an eye on market news and events that might cause extreme price movements. The indicator reacts to price data and might not account for news-driven events that can cause large deviations.
🔸Customize settings 🞘 Decay Factor (λ): Defines the weight assigned to recent price data in the calculation of the mean. A value closer to 1 places more emphasis on recent prices, while lower values create a smoother, more lagging mean.
