[blackcat] L3 Banker Fund SentimentLevel: 3
Background
If you like my banker fund series indicators, this may be another helpful one which describe banker fund sentiment with price and volume infomation.
c.
Function
Use price (major EMAs and SMAs) and volume infomation to model banker fund in a sensitive way which can be called banker fund sentiment. This was realized by a form of oscillator and 0 axis is an important boundary to define bull and bear senmtiments. I use different kind colors of columns to distinguish them.
I summarize how to use it in 1D timeframe:
1. When a fuchsia column appears below the 0 axis, start paying attention and watch for a bullish reversval around.
2. When a red column appears on the first day above the 0 axis, it is a signal of confirmed bullish trend.
3. There is a retraced in the middle and start doing T+0 trading to reduce costs.
4. When the pile of columns ( banker fund energy) breaks through the previous high in the late stage of the retracement, start to increase the bullish position, and be a short-term bullish relay, this is the best buying point!
5. Wait for 3-4 days to start reducing or flatting positions, and make your own decisions according to your personal risk preferences!
Remarks
When the pile of column breaks through the previous high point in the late stage of the retracement, and if the stock is a recent hot sector or concept stock,
Then increase your position and wait for the main force to pump! This indicator may not work alone, you should consider to combine your knowledge of other skills, e.g. candle pattern, news analysis etc.
B: long entry, green
S: short entry, red
column color
bullish trend: red color
confirmed bullish trend: maroon color
bullish retracement: blue color
bearish trend: green color
bearish retracement: fuchsia color

Urika Confirmation IndicatorThe Urika Confirmation (UC) Indicator helps a user make a better decision about areas to enter the market for a trade. The indicated incorporates the highs and the lows of the price for a specific period. The information is depicted on this two-line indicator to show the direction of the price. The gap between the two lines is a cloud for determining the current position of the trade and staying in a trend.
The two lines in the indicator are a signal line and a slow line: the price is likely bullish if the signal line crosses above the slow line while likely bearish if the signal line crosses below the slow line. One can enter a trade if the price is above the cloud while the signal line crosses above the slow line, This is an indication that the commodity or stock is bullish and vice versa for bearish. One can avoid trading when the price is in the cloud.
UC Calculations:
The signal line is the average high and low of the prices using the fast-length input.
The slow length is the average of the past previous high and low prices using the slow-length input.
Ways to Use the UC Indicator:
It is convenient to use the indicator with Relative Strength Indicator. If the signal line crosses above the slow line -->> Bullish possibility (buy if RSI >= 55). It is a false buy/long signal if the cross occurs while RSI is below 55.
If the slow line crosses above the signal line -->> Bearish possibility (short if RSI <= 45). It is a false short signal if the cross occurs while RSI is above 45.
The indicator can be used at all timeframes. The user can use different settings to suit their way of trading.
The indicator uses the concept of the Ichimoku Indicator to provide users with
Sup/Res Levels [QuantVue]Shows basic pivot point of support and resistance levels. Will show alerts for break of sup. or res. Allows for a volume filter for sup. res. breaks as well.
"B" means break of either a Sup. or Res. level with volume greater than the threshold.
"Bull/Bear Wick" means bullish/bearish candle on break.
Left - number of bars left hand side of the pivot .
Right - number of bars right hand side of the pivot .
Volume Thres. - the threshold value (%) for the Volume.
This indicator is useful to filter our insignificant breaks of sup. or res. Can help trader determine when to sit on their hands, or enter a trade.
MATHR3E RAMP-MA█ OVERVIEW
MATHR3E RAMP-MA (R-MA) is a trend following indicator.
█ CONCEPTS
Disclaimer:
MATHR3E RAMP-MA indicator is intended for advanced traders and may fit your profile, whether you are a day trader or a long-term investor.
It was originally developed by a renowned market analyst and documented in numerous books. Among them is the author Jason Perl.
It is recommended to have read the trading techniques mentioned in the books covering this indicator beforehand.
How to use:
MATHR3E RAMP-MA is useful for determining if a market is trending and when so, to procure entry points to initiate a trade in line with the expected directional move.
It can be applied to markets as a stop-loss, as well as a low-risk entry qualifier in conjunction with other indicators of the same author.
Moving Average (R-MA I):

CryptoverseThis Indicator dynamically generates and charts Pivot Points, Support and Resistance Lines, Trend Channels and even Rsi Divergences in every market and every time period.
While it helps you identify your entry points, stop loss and take positions, it certainly does not include trading signals and trading strategy.
Bonus: the indicator contains ema21, ema50, ema100 and ema200 to support the lines created. If you wish, you can change the EMA values in the settings.
Recommendation: RSI is included in the indicator codes in order to detect divergences dataally, but it is not displayed on the chart. I recommend adding an additional RSI indicator to keep track of past and current potential divergences.
USER MANUAL:
----------------------------------------------
General Settings:
Pivot Period: This field determines how many candles before and after a candle should be controlled in order to be able to determine the top and bottom points on the chart.
Support and Resistance Lines and Trend Channels formed on the chart are created by calculating the Pivot points formed according to the period determined here. (Default value: 6)
Pivot Source: Determines the pivot points to be created according to the value of the relevant candle.
(Default and Recommended: closing)
----------------------------------------------
Support And Resistance Settings:
Custom Bars Back: This area allows you to specify how many pivot points from the current candle to the previous candle to create support resistance lines on the Chart. The default value is the last 500 candles.
*Note: The more old candles are checked, the more support and resistance lines will appear. This may prevent you from making sound determinations on the chart.*
Current Bar Decrease: This field works integrated with Custom Bars Back. By subtracting the current candle by the specified number, it provides the formation of lines without including those candles.
Default value: It is set to 0 to include current data.
Example: If Custom Bars Back: 500 and Current Bar Decrease: 10, Support and Resistance lines are created by considering 500 candles before the last 10 candles without including the last 10 candles on the chart.
Show S/R Lines: This field allows you to show or hide the Support and Resistance lines at any time.
Auto Simplification: This field is marked by default. It allows the Simplification Steps value to be determined automatically within the code according to the time period and current volatility of the relevant parity. (It is recommended to use the default version.)
Simplification Steps: This field allows you to get more understandable lines by simplifying the Support and Resistance lines based on Pivot points. If a simplification is not done, the lines to be formed with only the pivot points will be too many and this creates a dirty and useless appearance on the chart.
Each 1 digit you enter as a step combines the lines that are close to each other at a value of 0.01% and creates a common line.
Example: If you enter the number 10 as Steps, it will form a single common line from lines close together, starting at 0.01% respectively. It will continue to increase by 0.02%, 0.03%, 0.04% in its next steps. For the number 10, it will complete its loop by combining lines within the last remaining lines that are as close as 0.1% to each other and creating new lines from their midpoints.
The deafult value is 14. (Max. simplifies lines with closeness up to 1.4%.)
Important Note: If Auto Simplification is on, the entered value has no meaning. The Indicator performs simplification operations automatically. If you want to manage these steps manually, you can turn off Auto Simplification and enter your own value.
S/R Lines Color: Allows you to specify the color of the lines.
Label Location: Allows you to determine how many candles ahead the information label formed for each line will be positioned.
Line Label Descriptions:
Line: It is the price value that the line coincides with.*
Distance: Shows the percentage distance of the line from the current price.
▲ : Shows the percentage distance from the line above it.
▼ : Shows the percentage distance from the line below it.
Strength: Indicates the total number of steps the process has taken during the simplification process. The height of the number indicates the strength of resistance and support in the close price range.
C. Width: stands for Channel Width. It shows the percentage value between the highest price and the lowest price on the past candle as many candles specified by Custom Bars Back.
S. Steps: stands for Simplification Steps. Indicates the number of simplification steps applied. A value of 150 in the image indicates that a 1.5% simplification range has been applied.
----------------------------------------------
Trend Channels Settings:
Show All Trend Lines: Allows you to show and hide trend channels.
Hide Old Trend Lines: If you enable it, it will hide channels created in the past except for Current Trend channels.
Helper Line Format: Allows the auxiliary line that converts a trendline to a channel to be drawn based on percentage or price.
Note: There may be cases where the auxiliary lines do not provide full parallelism when using large time intervals by preferring a percentage.
Up Trend Color: Indicates the color of the Up Trend channel.
Down Trend Color: Specifies the color of the Downtrend channel.
Show Up Trend Overflow, Show Down Trend Overflow:
When the price closes above or below the trend channels, it provides awareness with the help of a text on the chart. Colors can be adjusted according to preference.
----------------------------------------------
RSI Divergences Settings:
This indicator gives you information about 4 different divergences. You can customize the divergence views with the show and hide options.
Bullish Regular, Bullish Hidden, Bearish Regular and Bearish Hidden.
Green divergences from the bottom of the graph represent bullish, and red divergences above the graph represent bearish.
Important note: Seeing a mismatch label definitely indicates that there is a mismatch between prices and rsi, but a mismatch does not always indicate a change in price.
Potential Divergence:
The indicator not only shows you past divergences, but also informs you of potential divergences based on the current status of the chart.
A potential divergence may not turn into a true one if the price flow continues to increase or decrease in the same direction. But all divergences seen in the past must have been shown as potential divergences beforehand.
Rsi Length, Rsi Source: Allows you to change settings for RSI values typically embedded within the indicator.
Note: Pivot Source and RSI Source using the same type of candle data ensures that divergences are displayed correctly.
----------------------------------------------
EMA Settings:
The indicator allows you to use 4 different EMA data in addition to Support and Resistance lines, Trend Channels and RSI divergences. By default, 21, 50, 100 and 200 are used. You can change the EMA values and colors in the Settings section, or you can use the show hide options in the Style section.
Dynamic Linear Regression Oscillator | AdulariDescription:
This dynamic linear regression oscillator visualizes the general price trend of specific ranges in the chart based on the linear regression calculation, it automatically determines these ranges with pivot detection. The central line of the indicator is the baseline of the linear regression itself. This is a good tool to use to determine when a price is unusually far away from its baseline. The lines above or below it are overbought and oversold zones. These zones are based on the high or low of the range, in combination with the set multipliers.
The overbought and oversold lines indicate support and resistance; when the prices stay outside these levels for a significant period of time, a reversal can be expected soon. When the oscillator's value crosses above the signal or smoothed line the trend may become bullish. When it crosses below, the trend may become bearish.
This indicator is quite special, as it first determines price ranges using pivot detection. It then uses the middle of the range to determine how far the current price is from the baseline. This value is then rescaled compared to a set amount of bars back, putting it into relevant proportions with the current price action.
How do I use it?
Never use this indicator as standalone trading signal, it should be used as confluence.
When the value crosses above the signal this indicates the current bearish trend is getting weak and may reverse upwards.
When the value crosses below the signal this indicates the current bullish trend is getting weak and may reverse downwards.
When the value is above the middle line this shows the bullish trend is strong.
When the value is below the middle line this shows the bearish trend is strong.
When the value crosses above the upper line this indicates the trend may reverse downwards.
When the value crosses below the lower line this indicates the trend may reverse upwards.
Features:
Oscillator value indicating how far the price has currently deviated from the middle of the range. Proportioned to data from a set amount of bars ago.
Signal value to indicate whether or not the price is abnormally far from the middle of the range.
Horizontal lines such as oversold, overbought and middle lines, indicating possible reversal zones.
Automatic range detection using pivots.
Built-in rescaling functionality to ensure values are proportionate with the latest data.
How does it work? (simplified)
1 — Calculate the middle of the range.
2 — Define whether the current price is above the middle of the range or below.
3 — If above the middle of the range, calculate the difference of the current high and the middle line. If below, calculate the difference of the current low and the middle line.
4 — Smooth the value using a set moving average type.
5 — Rescale the value to proportionate it with the latest data.
RedK K-MACD : a MACD with some more musclesMoving Averages are probably the most commonly used analysis tools, and MACD is possibly the first charting indicator a trader gets to learn about.
MACD Basic concept
----------------------------
Without repeating all the tons of documentation about what MACD does, let's quickly re-visit the MACD concept from a 10-mile altitude (note we're keen on simplifying here rather than being technically accurate - so please forgive the use of any "common lingos")
- MACD goal is to represent the distance between 2 Moving Averages (MAs) - one fast and one slow, relatively - as an unrestricted zero-based oscillator.
- The value of the main MACD line is the distance, or the displacement between the 2 MA's
- usually a signal line is used (which is another MA of that distance value) to enable better visualization of the change (and rate of change, since this is all depicted on a time axis) of that displacement - this represents price momentum (price movement in the recent period versus movements for a relatively longer period).
- the difference between the main MACD line and its signal is then represented as a histogram above and below the zero line. in this case, that histogram is really redundant, since it shows a value that is already represented visually by the main line and its signal line.
How K-MACD is different
---------------------------------
K-MACD takes that simple concept of the classic MACD and expands around it - the idea is to use the same simple approach to representing price momentum while bringing in more insight to price moves in the short, medium and long terms, ability to represent more than 2 MA's and to enable better identification of tradeable patterns (like Volatility Contraction and others) - while still keeping things simple and visually clean.
K-MACD is an indicator that allows us to view how price moves against 3 moving averages: a fast / slow pair, and a "market" Filter or Baseline (very long) that will be used as a flag for Bear/Bull market mode. Many traders and trading literature use the 200 day (40 week) SMA as that key filter
so in total, there are 4 MA lines in K-MACD (excluding the "orange" signal line):
* Price Proxy: Which is a very fast moving average that will represent the price itself - let's use a WMA(3) or something close to that here - there will be a signal line to enable better visualization of this similar to a classic MACD - that's the orange line
* Fast & Slow MA's : Use whatever represents the "medium term" momentum for your trading - Some traders use 20 and 50, others use 10 and 20 .. if on your price chart, you keep using a pair of MA's for this, use the same settings in K-MACD - these will be represented by the 3-color Momentum Bars that fluctuate above and below the baseline
* Filter/Baseline MA: Should be your long (Bullish/Bearish Mode) MA. so 100 or 200 or any other value you consider your market to be bearish below and bullish above. on K-MACD this is actually the blue zero line - everything else is "relative" to it
Review the sample chart which explains various elements and the "price chart" setup that K-MACD represents. With K-MACD you can clean up your chart from those various Moving Averages - or use a different set than the ones you already have K-MACD represent - or other indicators (like ATR channels..etc)
Other "muscles" in the K-MACD
---------------------------------------------
- Relative vs Classic Calculation Mode
A key issue with the classic MACD is that the displacement between the 2 moving averages is represented as "absolute or direct" values - as the price of the underlying increases with time, you can't really use these values to make useful comparison between the past and now (see below example) - also you can't use them to compare 2 different instruments.
- The "Relative" calculation option in K-MACD addresses that issue by relating all "distances" to the Baseline MA as percentage (above or below) - you can see this clear when you look at the above chart the far left versus the far right and compare K-MACD with the classic MACD - the Classic option is still available
- More MA "type" options for all MA lines: choose between SMA, EMA, WMA, and RSS_WMA (which i use a lot in my trading and is my default for the Price Proxy)
- More Alerts: a total or 9 alerts (in 3 groups) are available with K-MACD (Momentum above or below baseline, Price Proxy crossing signal line, and Price Proxy crossing baseline)
- New 52 week High / Low markers: These will show as Green/red circles on the zero line in K-MACD. this will only work for 1D timeframe and above, i'm just using a simple approach and would like to keep it that way.
- i know i added some more features not covered above :) -- if you have questions about any of the settings, feel free to ask below
Closing thoughts
-------------------------
K-MACD is a combination of couple of indicators i published in the past (xMACD and Mo_Bars) - so you can go back and read about them if needed - I then added improvements to accommodate ideas from swing trading literature and common practices that i plan to focus on in future. So K-MACD is really part of my own trading setup.
I assume here that most traders are familiar with what a MACD is - so kept this post short - if you thing we should expand more about the concepts covered here let me know in the comments - i can make some separate posts with examples and more details.
I hope many fellow traders find this work useful - and feel free let me know in comments below if you do.

TechnicalRating█ OVERVIEW
This library is a Pine Script™ programmer’s tool for incorporating TradingView's well-known technical ratings within their scripts. The ratings produced by this library are the same as those from the speedometers in the technical analysis summary and the "Rating" indicator in the Screener , which use the aggregate biases of 26 technical indicators to calculate their results.
█ CONCEPTS
Ensemble analysis
Ensemble analysis uses multiple weaker models to produce a potentially stronger one. A common form of ensemble analysis in technical analysis is the usage of aggregate indicators together in hopes of gaining further market insight and reinforcing trading decisions.
Technical ratings
Technical ratings provide a simplified way to analyze financial markets by combining signals from an ensemble of indicators into a singular value, allowing traders to assess market sentiment more quickly and conveniently than analyzing each constituent separately. By consolidating the signals from multiple indicators into a single rating, traders can more intuitively and easily interpret the "technical health" of the market.
Calculating the rating value
Using a variety of built-in TA functions and functions from our ta library, this script calculates technical ratings for moving averages, oscillators, and their overall result within the `calcRatingAll()` function.
The function uses the script's `calcRatingMA()` function to calculate the moving average technical rating from an ensemble of 15 moving averages and filters:
• Six Simple Moving Averages and six Exponential Moving Averages with periods of 10, 20, 30, 50, 100, and 200
• A Hull Moving Average with a period of 9
• A Volume-Weighted Moving Average with a period of 20
• An Ichimoku Cloud with a conversion line length of 9, base length of 26, and leading span B length of 52
The function uses the script's `calcRating()` function to calculate the oscillator technical rating from an ensemble of 11 oscillators:
• RSI with a period of 14
• Stochastic with a %K period of 14, a smoothing period of 3, and a %D period of 3
• CCI with a period of 20
• ADX with a DI length of 14 and an ADX smoothing period of 14
• Awesome Oscillator
• Momentum with a period of 10
• MACD with fast, slow, and signal periods of 12, 26, and 9
• Stochastic RSI with an RSI period of 14, a %K period of 14, a smoothing period of 3, and a %D period of 3
• Williams %R with a period of 14
• Bull Bear Power with a period of 50
• Ultimate Oscillator with fast, middle, and slow lengths of 7, 14, and 28
Each indicator is assigned a value of +1, 0, or -1, representing a bullish, neutral, or bearish rating. The moving average rating is the mean of all ratings that use the `calcRatingMA()` function, and the oscillator rating is the mean of all ratings that use the `calcRating()` function. The overall rating is the mean of the moving average and oscillator ratings, which ranges between +1 and -1. This overall rating, along with the separate MA and oscillator ratings, can be used to gain insight into the technical strength of the market. For a more detailed breakdown of the signals and conditions used to calculate the indicators' ratings, consult our Help Center explanation.
Determining rating status
The `ratingStatus()` function produces a string representing the status of a series of ratings. The `strongBound` and `weakBound` parameters, with respective default values of 0.5 and 0.1, define the bounds for "strong" and "weak" ratings.
The rating status is determined as follows:
Rating Value Rating Status
< -strongBound Strong Sell
< -weakBound Sell
-weakBound to weakBound Neutral
> weakBound Buy
> strongBound Strong Buy
By customizing the `strongBound` and `weakBound` values, traders can tailor the `ratingStatus()` function to fit their trading style or strategy, leading to a more personalized approach to evaluating ratings.
Look first. Then leap.
█ FUNCTIONS
This library contains the following functions:
calcRatingAll()
Calculates 3 ratings (ratings total, MA ratings, indicator ratings) using the aggregate biases of 26 different technical indicators.
Returns: A 3-element tuple: ( [(float) ratingTotal, (float) ratingOther, (float) ratingMA ].
countRising(plot)
Calculates the number of times the values in the given series increase in value up to a maximum count of 5.
Parameters:
plot : (series float) The series of values to check for rising values.
Returns: (int) The number of times the values in the series increased in value.
ratingStatus(ratingValue, strongBound, weakBound)
Determines the rating status of a given series based on its values and defined bounds.
Parameters:
ratingValue : (series float) The series of values to determine the rating status for.
strongBound : (series float) The upper bound for a "strong" rating.
weakBound : (series float) The upper bound for a "weak" rating.
Returns: (string) The rating status of the given series ("Strong Buy", "Buy", "Neutral", "Sell", or "Strong Sell").
Simple Momentum and Trend, Fixed PnL Strategy for SPY 1D [SR]This strategy uses an ATR rule to assess momentum and a TSI rule to assess bullish or bearishness
It has a fixed stop at 50 points, and fixed take profit at 300 pips
It provides a very satisfyingly smooth equity line with a max drawdown below 5% and realized profit over 200%
This is the initial version as I work out optimizations and add plots to the chart based on the strategy's actions.
I would love to get the community's feedback and help as I'm new. Not sure how to limit the date range of the backtest to make it more realistic. I'm also not certain how to plot it best.
Correlated ATR MA | AdulariHow do I use it?
Never use this indicator as standalone trading signal, it should be used as confluence.
When the price is above the moving average this shows the bullish trend is strong.
When the price is below the moving average this shows the bearish trend is strong.
When the moving average is purple, the trend is bullish, when it is gray, the trend is bearish.
Features:
Purple line for bullish trend and gray line for bearish trend.
Custom formula combining an ATR and Hull MA to clearly indicate trend strength and direction.
Unique approach to moving averages by taking the average of 3 types of MA's combined with custom ATR's.
How does it work?
1 — ATR value is calculated, then the correlation between the source and ATR is calculated.
2 — Signal value is calculated from the difference between the previous source and ATR values.
3 — Final value is being calculated using the following formula:
cor * target + (1 - cor) * nz(atr , target)
4 — Moving average is calculated by getting the average of 3 values: a normal HMA, HMA plus final value, and HMA minus final value.
Fixed Quantum CDVWe took the original script Cumulative delta volume from LonesomeTheBlue, here is the link:
To understand the CDV you can watch traders reality master class about CDV.
This indicator show the ratio of vector color and the ratio of the cumulative delta volume from vector color.
First you select a date range on the chart. Then it calculate all candles in that region. Let's say there is 3 green vectors and 3 red vectors in the region, the ratio of vector color will be 50% for bull and 50% for bear vector. As for the CDV ratio, it will measure the total CDV inside green vector and total CDV inside red vector and make a ratio. But it is a little different.
I twisted the calculation for the ratio of CDV a little bit to make it more comprehensive in the table. Since it's the ratio of the CDV for the bull candles versus the bear candles, the CDV is almost always a positive number for the bull candles and almost always a negative number for the bear candle. So I calculated the bear CDV as a positive number. Formula: Bull_CDV_ratio = Bull_CDV / (Bull_CDV + Bear_CDV), Bear_CDV_ratio = -Bear_CDV / (Bull_CDV - Bear_CDV).
Note that when the bull CDV and bear CDV are both a positive number or both a negative number, the ratio percentage can be over 100% and under 0%. It means that we expect volatility.
Enjoy!
Order Block Detector [LuxAlgo]This script makes use of high-volume activity as an indicator of the presence of market participants accumulating orders in specific areas on a lower timeframe by detecting volume peaks to form order blocks.
Mitigated order blocks are automatically hidden from the chart, also allowing users to be able to select two different mitigation methods "wick" and "close".
Additionally, users can be alerted for the creation and mitigation of bullish/bearish order blocks.
Settings
Volume Pivot Length: Lookback of the pivot function used to detect volume peaks, lower values will detect order blocks more frequently.
Bullish OB: Determines the number of most recent unmitigated bullish order blocks to display on the chart.
Bearish OB: Determines the number of most recent unmitigated bullish order blocks to display on the chart.
Bearish OB: Determines the number of most recent unmitigated bullish order blocks to display on the chart.
Average Line Style: Line style of the average order block level.
Average Line Width: Line width of the average order block level.
Mitigation Methods: Method used to determine how an order block is mitigated. "Wick" will mitigate order blocks if the candle wick goes outside of the order block and "Close" will mitigate order blocks if the closing price goes outside of the order block.
Usage
It is common for more significant market participants to execute orders incrementally in order to avoid overwhelming the market and cause significant price movements. This practice allows the orders to be executed more efficiently and effectively, reducing the impact on the market and minimizing the potential for price volatility.
Order blocks are price areas where these orders are executed incrementally and are commonly used as areas of support/resistance for traders.
Bearish order blocks occur during a downtrend, while bullish order blocks occur in an uptrend. Bullish order blocks range from the price low to the median price, while bearish order blocks range from the median price to the price high. The median price is used as an equilibrium point.
Users can highlight the bars where an order block was detected from the style settings by toggling on the 'Bull OB' or 'Bear OB' selections.
Note that in order to confirm a peak Volume Pivot Length bars are needed, as such note that order blocks are shown retrospectively.
Wavetrend in Dynamic Zones with Kumo Implied VolatilityI was asked to do one of those, so here we go...
As always free and open source as it should be. Do not pay for such indicators!
A WaveTrend Indicator or also widely known as "Market Cipher" is an Indicator that is based on Moving Averages, therefore its an "lagging indicator". Lagging indicators are best used in combination with leading indicators. In this script the "leading indicator" component are Daily, Weekly or Monthly Pivots . These Pivots can be used as dynamic Support and Resistance , Stoploss, Take Profit etc.
This indicator combination is best used in larger timeframes. For lower timeframes you might need to change settings to your liking.
The general Wavetrend settings are the same that are used in Market Cipher, Market Liberator and such popular indicators.
What are these circles?
-These are the WaveTrend Divergences. Red for Regular-Bearish. Orange for Hidden-Bearish. Green for Regular-Bullish. Aqua for Hidden-Bullish.
What are these white, orange and aqua triangles?
-These are the WaveTrend Pivots. A Pivot counter was added. Every time a pivot is lower than the previous one, an orange triangle is printed, every time a pivot is higher than the previous one an aqua triangle is printed. That mimics a very common way Wavetrend is being used for trading when using those other paid Wavetrend indicators.
What are these Orange and Aqua Zones?
-These are Dynamic Zones based on the indicator itself, they offer more information than static zones. Of course static lines are also included and can be adjusted.
What are the lines between the waves?
-This is a Kumo Cloud Implied Volatility indicator. It is color coded and can be used to indicate if a major market move/bottom/top happened.
What are those numbers on the right?
-The first number is a Bollinger Band indicator that shows if said Bollinger Band is in a state of Oversold/Overbought, the second number is the actual Bollinger Band Width that indicates if the Bollinger Band squeezes, normally that happens right before the market makes an explosive move.
Please keep in mind that this indicator is a tool and not a strategy, do not blindly trade signals, do your own research first! Use this indicator in conjunction with other indicators to get multiple confirmations.
Bars Since MA Cross Can Help Trend FollowingMoving average crosses are popular signals for trend followers. Like many conditions, they tend to reverse after a certain amount of time. Today’s script is designed to help traders visualize and interpret these turns.
Bars Since MA Cross counts how many bars have passed since a fast-moving average crossed a slower MA. Bullish readings, with the faster MA above the slow, are plotted with positive numbers. The opposite is true for bearish conditions. Users can choose between simple, exponential and weighed average types. They can also mix them, comparing a fast EMA for a slower SMA, for example.
By default, it uses the 8- and 21-day EMAs.
This approach can help in a couple of ways. First, it can show divergences as a move weakens. Microsoft, in the example above, had a shorter bullish phase as it made new highs last December. This was followed by even briefer periods in January before the bear market took hold.
Likewise in May and June, Bars Since MA Cross showed shorter bearish periods before July’s counter-trend rally.
The second potential application is to know the age of a move. In this case look at September 2020. MSFT’s 8-day EMA was above its 21-day EMA for 108 days. The chart shows this was unusually long by previous examples, giving traders a sense the rally was getting long in the tooth. (MSFT would go the rest of that year without a new high.)
In conclusion, Bars Since MA Cross judges a move by its age and not its intensity. It’s a different approach that can sometimes help more than viewing simple price action.

VFIBs AgreementVFIBs Agreement is a custom oscillator, using Volume Weighted Fibonacci Bands (VFIBs).
The two values in yellow and teal relate to the price action and where they fall in the Fibonacci Bands for the 50 and 200 VWMAs, respectively. These values are scaled logarithmically, making it so that the 7 period moving averages of the values tend to 'stick' to the top (just above 20) or bottom (just below -20). When the background color is deep red, this indicates that there is bullish momentum and likely a bull market. The inverse, in green, represents bearish momentum or a bear market. These colors correspond to the 200 period VFIB.
The bands of the VFIBs are broken down by fibonacci values as different channels, moving alongside the mid-line above and below. The price action will go between these values, showing where it is in the extremes. This is what VFIBs agreement represents.
In order for an uptrend to begin, the two VFIBs must 'agree'. With the 50 period VFIB trending up, it doesn't matter if it keeps getting rejected by the 200 period, as we can see with Bitcoin. When the 50 period VFIB starts to pull the 200 period up or down, it could indicate an imminent reversal.
This indicator works well with any market that you would use the VFIBs in. Mid and large cap stocks, top cryptocurrencies, and indices are my top choices.
