Ema Short Long Indicator[CHE]█ CONCEPTS
This Pine Script is an EMA Short Long indicator that displays the crossing EMA lines on the chart. The indicator uses three exponential moving averages (EMAs) to generate the buy and sell signals. The EMA lines are plotted as green (uptrend) and red (downtrend) lines. When the green line is above the white signal line, the indicator generates a buy signal, when the green line is below the white signal line, the indicator generates a sell signal. Arrows are also displayed marking the buy and sell signals. There is also an option to allow indicator repainting or not. Finally, users can also set alerts to be alerted to potential trading opportunities.
Note: please do not disable "time frame gaps". Allows to calculate the indicator on a Timeframe (TF) different from that of the chart Time window. The TF should ideally be higher than the charts to provide a broader perspective than
the TF of the chart. Using TFs lower than the chart's will deliver fragmentary results, since only the last value of intrabar is displayed (multiple values cannot be displayed for a single chart bar). The Gaps setting determines the behavior when the TF is higher than the TF of the chart. If 'gaps' is checked, higher TF values only come in and are interconnected on the diagram when the higher TF completed. This has the advantage of avoidance Real-time epainting. If Gaps is not enabled, Gaps are filled with the last higher TF value calculated, which will not produce a repaint Values on historical bars but repaint values realtime.
█ HOW TO USE IT
Load the indicator on an active chart (see the Help Center if you don't know how).
Time period
By default, the script uses an auto-stepping mechanism to adjust the time period of its moving window to the chart's timeframe. The following table shows chart timeframes and the corresponding time period used by the script. When the chart's timeframe is less than or equal to the timeframe in the first column, the second column's time period is used to calculate the Ema Short Long Indicator :
Chart Time
timeframe period
1min 🠆 1H
5min 🠆 4H
1H 🠆 1D
4H 🠆 3D
12H 🠆 1W
1D 🠆 1M
1W 🠆 3M
█ DESCRIPTION
The script begins by setting up the chart indicator with a short title, "ESLI", and enabling it as an overlay. It then initializes several variables for time conversions, to be used later in the script.
The timeStep_translate() function converts the timeframe of the chart into a string representing a larger time interval, based on the number of seconds in the timeframe. The resulting string is used to label the horizontal axis of the chart.
Next, the script defines several input variables that can be modified by the user. These include the colors of the EMA lines and the signals, whether or not the indicator is allowed to repaint (i.e. update past values based on future data), and the number of periods used to calculate the EMA and signal lines.
The f_security() function calls the request.security() function to fetch data from the specified security and timeframe, and is used to calculate the EMA and signal lines using the ta.ema() function. The clo variable is assigned the closing price data, adjusted for repainting and timeframe.
The EMA line is calculated using a weighted average of the EMA over the specified period and two times that period, as well as three times that period, divided by six. The signal line is calculated as the EMA of the EMA line over the specified period.
The col_css variable sets the color of the EMA line based on whether it is currently above or below the signal line. The script then plots the EMA and signal lines, and uses the plotshape() function to indicate long and short signals based on the crossovers and crossunders of the EMA and signal lines.
Finally, the script sets up alert conditions using the alertcondition() function to notify the user when a long or short signal is generated, including information about the symbol and closing price.
█ SPECIAL THANKS
Special thanks to LOXX, I wanted to take a moment to express my gratitude for his valuable input in the EMA calculation. His insights and expertise have greatly helped me in improving my Pine Script coding skills. Thanks to his suggestion, I was able to better understand the EMA formula and implement it effectively in my script.
Your generosity in sharing your knowledge and experience is truly appreciated. It is through collaboration and exchanging ideas that we can all grow and become better in our craft.
This script provides exact signals that, with suitable additional indicators, provide very good results.

Trend Line Trendlines are easily recognizable lines that traders draw on charts to connect a series of prices together or show some data's best fit. The resulting line is then used to give the trader a good idea of the direction in which an investment's value might move.
A trendline is a line drawn over pivot highs or under pivot lows to show the prevailing direction of price. Trendlines are a visual representation of support and resistance in any time frame. They show direction and speed of price, and also describe patterns during periods of price contraction.
Key Takeaways
Trendlines indicate the best fit of some data using a single line.
A single trendline can be applied to a chart to give a clearer picture of the trend.
The time period being analyzed and the exact points used to create a trendline vary from trader to trader.
The trendline is among the most important tools used by technical analysts. Instead of looking at past business performance or other fundamentals, technical analysts look for trends in price action. A trendline helps technical analysts determine the current direction in market prices. Technical analysts believe the trend is your friend, and identifying this trend is the first step in the process of making a good trade.
To create a trendline, an analyst must have at least two points on a price chart. Some analysts like to use different time frames such as one minute or five minutes. Others look at daily charts or weekly charts. Some analysts put aside time altogether, choosing to view trends based on tick intervals rather than intervals of time. What makes trendlines so universal in usage and appeal is they can be used to help identify trends regardless of the time period, time frame or interval used.
RahulLines CloudJ-Lines Cloud is a technical analysis tool that is used to identify potential support and resistance levels on a chart. It is based on the concept of the "J-Lines," which are lines that are drawn on a chart in order to identify potential turning points in price. The J-Lines Cloud is a variation of the J-Lines that is used to identify levels of support and resistance using cloud, it typically uses multiple lines to create a cloud-like shape, which represents a zone of support or resistance.
To use the J-Lines Cloud, you will typically need a charting platform that has the ability to plot the J-Lines Cloud indicator. The indicator will typically take the form of a cloud-like shape on the chart, with different colors used to represent different levels of support and resistance.
Once the J-Lines Cloud is plotted on the chart, traders can use it to identify potential levels at which the price of an asset may change direction. For example, if the price of an asset is approaching a level of resistance identified by the J-Lines Cloud, a trader may choose to sell or exit a long position. Conversely, if the price of an asset is approaching a level of support identified by the J-Lines Cloud, a trader may choose to buy or enter a long position.
It's important to note that the J-Lines Cloud is a tool for technical analysis and not a standalone strategy, it should be used in combination with other indicators or strategies and also it should be used with the proper risk management and stop loss analysis.
FOREX MASTER PATTERN Companion ToolWhat This Indicator Does
The Forex Master Pattern uses candlesticks, which provide more information than line, OHLC or area charts. For this reason, candlestick patterns are a useful tool for gauging price movements on all time frames. While there are many candlestick patterns, there is one which is particularly useful...
The Engulfing Pattern
An engulfing pattern provides an excellent trading opportunity because it can be easily spotted and the price action indicates a strong and immediate change in direction. In a downtrend, an up candle real body will completely engulf the prior down candle real body (bullish engulfing). In an uptrend a down candle real body will completely engulf the prior up candle real body (bearish engulfing).
Used in conjunction with the FOREX Master Pattern value line, the Engulfing Pattern can assist the trader with reversal timing or trend confirmation during the expansion and trend phases.
As shown in the screenshot below. Engulfing Candles usually precede a sharp move in price in the direction of the engulfing candle.
As shown in the screenshot below, when the Show Lines option is ON while using the indicator, both red and green lines are drawn on the chart automatically when engulfing candles form. These lines are projected forward 100 bars and tend to be reliable support and resistance areas. These areas are typically hidden from view.
In addition to the Show Lines option, the indicator (by default) creates boxes around trading zones that are created when an engulfing candle is formed. (There is an option to hide these from view if desired).
As seen in the screenshot below, these areas / zones are wider than a line and encompass a resistance / support zone rather than a specific price. Liquidity is usually high in these areas and a lot of selling / buying occurs here. These zones are drawn in advance out into the future giving the trader an idea of where price will revert to eventually.
A combination of LINES and AREAS can be used giving the user a better idea of where within the zone price will go.
As seen on the screenshot below, this combination provides a pretty accurate indication of the reversal point well in advance.
As seen in the screenshot below, when a ZONE / AREA has been fully breached (crossed) by price, the area is deactivated an no longer continues forward on the chart. Until price breaches an area, it remains valid and continues on the chart until and only if it is breached by price.
The Indicator is fully customizable.
The use can change the color of the engulfing candles, the color of the zones, transparency etc. You can turn OFF or ON any of the features such as lines, zones, bar coloring, and plotted arrows.
I really hope you get value from this indicator and... HAPPY TRADING!!
Visible Fibonacci█ OVERVIEW
This indicator displays Fibonacci retracement and extension levels on the price chart using data within the chart's visible range, providing traders with an automated alternative to our well-known drawing tool .
█ CONCEPTS
Fibonacci sequence and the Golden ratio
The Fibonacci sequence is a sequence of numbers where each term is the sum of the previous two terms. In his book Liber Abaci , Fibonacci used this sequence to estimate the growth of rabbit populations. Although most commonly associated with Fibonacci, this numeric sequence appeared in Indian mathematics as early as 200 BC. As this sequence approaches infinity, the ratio of the last element to the preceding approaches the Golden ratio (1.618033...), a well-known metallic ratio theoretically observed in many natural and synthetic systems. Many traders believe that the Fibonacci sequence and the Golden ratio carry significance in the financial markets.
Fibonacci retracements and extensions
Fibonacci retracements and extensions are extremely popular in technical analysis. They are created by connecting two extreme points, typically pivot points, by a trend line and multiplying the range between them by the ratios of steps in the Fibonacci sequence, or more precisely, powers of the Golden Ratio, to produce estimated levels of support and resistance. The ratios used for retracement multipliers are typically the Golden ratio raised to the power of 0, -0.5, -1, -2, and -3, or 1, 0.786, 0.618, 0.382, and 0.236, respectively. It is also common to see traders use a retracement ratio of 0.5. The ratios used for extension multipliers are typically the Golden ratio raised to the power of 0.5, 1, 2, and 3, or 1.272, 1.618, 2.618, and 4.236, respectively. Traders often combine these retracement and extension ratios with others they deem significant for a more personalized output.
Zig Zag
Zig Zag is a popular indicator that filters out minor price fluctuations to denoise data and emphasize trends. Traders commonly use Zig Zag for trend confirmation, identifying potential support and resistance, and pattern detection. It is formed by identifying significant local high and low points in alternating order and connecting them with straight lines, omitting all other data points from their output. There are several ways to calculate the Zig Zag's data points and the conditions by which its direction changes. This script uses the highest and lowest values over a specified length to estimate the locations of pivots. The Zig Zag reverses its direction when a new high or low emerges in the opposite direction. Additionally, enabling the "Detect additional pivots" option in the script settings will locate extra pivots when the number of bars in which no new pivot occurs exceeds the Zig Zag length.
Visible Fibonacci
This script uses the chart's visible bars to calculate and display an automated Fibonacci retracement tool with extreme points based on either of two calculation methods:
• Visible Chart Range: This method uses the highest and lowest points from the visible chart range for Fibonacci level calculation.
• Visible Zig Zag: This method uses historical pivots from a Zig Zag indicator for level calculation. The "nth Last Pivot" input in the script settings controls how many pivots back from the last visible one will be used to calculate the Fibonacci levels.
As traders pan and zoom on their charts, the script dynamically recalculates its values explicitly using the bars within the visible range.
Note that levels drawn outside the range between the high and low points may affect the scale of the chart. To prevent this, select the "Scale price chart only" option in the chart settings.
█ FOR Pine Script™ CODERS
• This script utilizes functions from the VisibleChart library by our resident PineCoders . The library exploits the chart.left_visible_bar_time and chart.right_visible_bar_time variables, which return the opening time of the leftmost and rightmost bars on the chart. They are only two of many new built-ins in the `chart.*` namespace. See this blog post for more information, or look them up by typing "chart." in the Pine Script™ Reference Manual .
• This script's architecture utilizes user-defined types (UDTs) to create custom objects which are the equivalent of variables containing multiple parts, each able to hold independent values of different types . The recently added feature was announced in this blog post.

Simple script to Emulate Renko Charting behavior on standard candle stick charts. Code provide capability to select between standard(ish) Renko bricks (in this code it's defined by percent vs ticks/value), or an ATR brick option. For ATR bricks, the code provides an option to inhibit emulator movement (formation of new bricks) by providing a minimum threshold that must be present. This threshold is the "Standard Brick" input (the input pulls double duty). Code also provides multiple plotting options.
Use the code to help see trends and reduce the chop/erroneous data. Also helps to identify where trend deviations are present.
FluidTrades - SMC Lite
Price action and supply and demand is a key strategy use in trading. We wanted it to be easy and efficient for user to identify these zones, so the user can focus less on marking up charts and focus more on executing trades.
This indicator shows you supply and demand zones by using pivot points to show you the recent highs and the recent lows.
Features
This indicator includes some features relevant to SMC , these are highlighted below:
Full internal & swing market structure labeling in real-time
Swing Structure: Displays the swing structure labels & solid lines on the chart (BOS).
Supply & demand ( bullish & bearish )
Swing Points: Displays swing points labels on chart such as HH, HL, LH, LL.
Options to style the indicator to more easily display these concepts
White OB (supply): search for short opportunities
Blue OB (demand): search for long opportunities
Break of structure ( BOS )
For markets to move up and down a break in market structure must occur. A break in market structure occurs when the market begins to shift direction and break the previous HH and HL or HL and LL of the market. We also integrated the feature that you can see the BOS lines. In the indicator settings you can adjust the color of the label.
Settings
SwingHigh/Low Length: Allows the user to select Historical (default) or Present, which displays only recent data on the chart.
Supply/demand box width: Allows user to change the size of the supply and demand box
History to keep: allows the user to select how many most recent supply & demand box appear on the chart.
Visual settings
Show zig zag : allow user to see market patters within the market
Show price action labels: allow user to turn on/off the (swing points)
Supply box color : allow users to change the color of their supply box
Demand box color : allow users to change the color of their supply box
Bos label color : allow users to change the color of their BOS label
Poi label color : allow user to change the color of their POI label
Price action label : allow users to change the color of their swing points labels
Zig zag color : allow users to change the color of the zig/zag market patters
Warning
Never blindly take a trade on a supply/demand box - wait for a proper market structure to occur before considering a trade.
Weekly Power 3Did you know there is a simple line you can place on your chart to immediately make the weeks price action more understandable? Its called the Weekly Open Line. And its the opening price of the trading week. It was created by The Inner Circle Trader (ICT) and incorporates another one of his concepts called Power 3.
The Weekly Power 3 indicator takes the idea of the Weekly Open Line and builds a suite of intelligent and dynamic tools around it that will immediately help the user to start understanding how price moves within the trading week context.
Features
Static Weekly Open Line
Intelligent Days of the Week Text
Dynamic Weekly High Line
Dynamic Weekly Low Line
Weekly High Candle Label (highest candle of the week)
Weekly Low Candle Label (lowest candle of the week)
Best Odds High of the Week Zone Line & Text
Best Odds Low of the Week Zone Line & Text
Components
The primary feature is a line that forms on the weekly open price and grows as the week progresses. Additionally, lines are created for the highest and lowest prices of the week so the weekly profile can be easily recognized. A dynamic label marks each weeks highest and lowest point. This will automatically move as prices expand throughout the week.
A very useful component of the Weekly Power 3 indicator is the Days of the Week text. Each Day of the Week text is displayed in the middle of each trading day and also the user can specify in the Settings whether to position the text at the high or low of the weeks price range. Additionally, there is a Buffer setting that allows the user to move the Days of the Week text up or down to prevent chart overlapping.
To help the user visualize the span of time with the best odds of forming the weekly highs or weekly lows, according to ICT, this indicator adds at static line and optional label into the charts future that projects the span from Tuesday’s London Open to Wednesday’s New York. Having a static line out in the future on your chart really helps to picture where price could be drawn to based solely around time of the week.
Premise
ICT says that the weekly open price is the most important level that price reacts to across the five days of a trading week. If the week profile is expected to be bullish then price many times goes below the weekly open line at the beginning of the week and above it later in the week (a.k.a Bullish Power 3). Consequently, if the week is anticipated to be a bearish week, price often times starts the week high and then goes lower throughout the week (a.k.a Bearish Power 3).
ICT always specifies that the weekly high or weekly low have the best odds of forming between the Tuesday’s London Open and Wednesday’s New York Open.
Inputs and Style
Like all scripts publish by Infinity Trading, everything in the indicator is customizable by the user. Every label, line, or text can be individually toggled ON or OFF so the user has complete control over the elements they want displayed on their chart. All of the lines can be individually adjusted by color, line style, or line width. The color and text color on the high and low of the week labels can be individually changed. The text in the chart (day of the week & best odds zones text) each have a “buffer” value. This allows the user to individually move the text up or down on the chart to declutter the chart. And lastly, the day of the week text can be positioned above or below the weeks price action and the text will dynamically move higher or lower as price expands throughout the week.
Previous weeks have all of the Weekly Power 3 markups so it's easy to study past price action and identify trends.

Zig Zag+ (Macro + Internal Structure Tool)ZigZag+ (Macro + Internal Structure Tool)
ZigZag+ is a simple tool that helps traders to clearly identify and differentiate between macro and internal market structure, to help you keep your bearings of where you are currently in the overall picture.
It is especially difficult to keep your bearings within the larger structural trend when trading the lower timeframes, where for example, a bearish structural trend on a lower timeframe may simply be a retracement of an overall bullish structural trend on a higher timeframe. This indicator primarily aims to help traders maintain awareness of where they are in relationship to the higher timeframe / 'macro' structural trend, and their most significant swing point highs and lows.
The features of this indicator include:
- 2x Zig Zag lines drawn automatically onto your chart. One which has a longer length than the other, which can be used to help identify and differentiate the larger price swings from the smaller price swings found within it. Enabled by default.
- Customisable Zig Zag line color & width settings to help clearly differentiate the higher timeframe 'macro structure' apart from the lower timeframe 'internal structure' within it, enabling it to be tailored to suit your chart colour theme and personal preference.
- Customisable individual length settings for the 2x Zig Zag lines, to allow the fine tuning of each line to any timeframe and asset. By default one lines length is set to a higher value than the other, to illustrate a macro structure (higher length value) as well as the 'internal structure' (lower value length), seen within the larger macro structure.
- Up to a maximum of 500 lines can be drawn meaning you can zoom out considerably, and view historical price action with both Zig Zag lines continuing to print.
- Custom alerts for identifying candlesticks that can offer optimal entries where they are found within valid price markups or markdowns that are already underway. Further details can be found within the tooltips for these signals.
Note: The above list of features are accurate at the time of publishing, but may be updated or added to in future.
Structure
Understanding structure is arguably the foundation of all trading strategies, and therefore very important to understand where you are exactly in the bigger picture, since it can help identify levels at which there is a higher probability of price moving either upward or downward at a given point. Structural trend refers to the typical way that price tends to move in any given trending market, identified by the continuation of higher highs and higher lows in a typical bullish trending market, and lower highs and lower lows in a bearish trending market.
During other times price may not be trending in this way, for example when it is undergoing accumulation or distribution phases, where the consistent higher high & lower low / lower high and lower low patterns will not be evident.
What is Macro Structure?
Macro trend structure refers to the structural trend seen on higher timeframe charts.
What is Internal Structure?
Internal trend structure refers to the structural trend seen on lower timeframe charts, which is found within the higher timeframe structure.

[TehThomas] - Order Blocks█ OVERVIEW
This Order Blocks indicator identifies institutional-level support and resistance zones using fractal pattern recognition combined with Fair Value Gap (FVG) filtering. Order blocks represent areas where large institutional orders have been placed, creating significant price reactions when retested. This indicator uses a 5-bar fractal pattern to detect market structure breaks and highlights the last bearish or bullish candle before a strong impulse move.
█ KEY FEATURES
- Fractal-Based Detection: Uses 5-candle fractal patterns to identify key market structure highs and lows
- FVG Filtering: Optional Fair Value Gap confirmation ensures order blocks are followed by true market imbalances
- Automatic Mitigation: Order blocks are automatically removed when price breaks through them
- Overlap Prevention: Prevents cluttered charts by avoiding overlapping order block zones
- Customizable Display: Full control over colors, labels, line heights (body/wick), and maximum blocks shown
- Dual Polarity: Detects both bullish (OB+) and bearish (OB-) order blocks independently
█ HOW IT WORKS
The indicator scans price action for fractal patterns where the middle candle forms a local extreme (highest high or lowest low among 5 bars). When price breaks above a fractal high or below a fractal low, the script identifies the last opposing candle in the impulse move as the order block.
For bearish order blocks, it finds the highest bullish candle before a fractal low is broken, marking institutional selling pressure. For bullish order blocks, it locates the lowest bearish candle before a fractal high is breached, indicating institutional buying.
When FVG filtering is enabled, the indicator confirms that a Fair Value Gap (a 3-candle imbalance where price leaves an unfilled gap) occurred within the specified distance from the order block. This combination increases the probability that institutional traders are present in these zones.
█ SETTINGS
Bullish Order Block Settings
- Show/hide bullish order blocks
- Customize fill color and border color
- Toggle OB+ label display
Bearish Order Block Settings
- Show/hide bearish order blocks
- Customize fill color and border color
- Toggle OB- label display
Label Settings
- Label size: Tiny, Small, Normal, or Large
- Label text color customization
General Settings
- Bars Back to Check (10-200): Lookback period for order block detection
- Filter by FVG: Requires Fair Value Gap confirmation
- Max Bars Between OB and FVG (1-6): Distance tolerance for FVG filtering
- Line Height: Choose between Body or Wick for order block boundaries
- Prevent Overlapping OBs: Avoids drawing overlapping zones
- Max Order Blocks to Display (1-50): Limits active blocks on chart
- Length of Boxes (10-100): Horizontal projection length
█ HOW TO USE
1. Add the indicator to your TradingView chart
2. Configure settings based on your trading timeframe and style
3. Watch for OB+ labels (bullish order blocks) as potential support zones where price may bounce
4. Watch for OB- labels (bearish order blocks) as potential resistance zones where price may reverse
5. Wait for price retracement to the order block zone before taking entries
6. Use confirmation signals like volume spikes or reversal patterns at the order block
7. Place stop loss just outside the order block boundary to manage risk
8. Monitor mitigation: Order blocks disappear when price breaks through them completely
█ TRADING STRATEGY EXAMPLES
Bullish Order Block Strategy
Wait for a market structure shift from bearish to bullish. When price creates a bullish impulse breaking a fractal high, identify the OB+ zone. Enter long positions when price retraces to test the bullish order block, placing stop loss 10-20 pips below the zone's low. Target previous highs or resistance levels.
Bearish Order Block Strategy
Monitor for market structure shift from bullish to bearish. After price creates a bearish impulse breaking a fractal low, locate the OB- zone. Enter short positions when price retraces to test the bearish order block, placing stop loss 10-20 pips above the zone's high. Target previous lows or support levels.
FVG-Confirmed Entries
Enable FVG filtering to only display order blocks validated by Fair Value Gaps. These aligned setups increase probability as they combine institutional order placement with market inefficiencies. Trade retracements to these high-confluence zones for better risk-reward ratios.
█ IDEAL FOR
- ICT Traders: Follows Inner Circle Trader methodology for institutional order flow
- Smart Money Concepts: Tracks where large players place orders
- Swing Traders: Identifies key support/resistance for multi-day holds
- Price Action Traders: Pure chart-based approach without lagging indicators
- Breakout Traders: Confirms structure breaks with fractal patterns
- Forex, Crypto, and Stock Markets: Works on all liquid markets and timeframes
█ TECHNICAL SPECIFICATIONS
- Max Boxes: 500
- Max Labels: 500
- Detection Method: 5-bar fractal pattern recognition
- Mitigation Logic: Automatic removal when price breaks order block boundaries
- Time Projection: Uses time offset calculations for box extension
- Array Management: Dynamic array cleanup to prevent memory issues
█ NOTES & DISCLAIMERS
- Order blocks work best when combined with overall market context and trend analysis
- Not all order blocks result in price reversals; use proper risk management
- FVG filtering may reduce the number of signals but increases quality
- Fractal patterns require 5 bars to form, causing a 2-bar delay in detection
- Works optimally on higher timeframes (4H, Daily) for institutional footprints
- This indicator does not guarantee profitable trades; always use stop losses
- Past performance of order blocks does not predict future results
- Compatible with other ICT concepts like liquidity sweeps and market structure

Overnight Mid-pointThis script defines a scrollable intraday session and continuously tracks the highest and lowest candle body closes made during that session, explicitly ignoring wicks. As the session develops, it plots a single horizontal midpoint line (dotted, dashed, or solid by user selection) calculated as the average of those two body closes, extending to the right from the session. For visual verification, it places exactly two dots on the chart: a green dot above the bar with the highest body close and a red dot below the bar with the lowest body close. Each new session resets the calculation, ensuring only one midpoint line and two verification markers are visible at any time. For proper use, 1800 - 0800 local time should be used (may be a couple hours off depending on your region).
Crypto MMFCrypto MMF Indicator:
The Crypto Money Flow (MMF) indicator represents an advanced technical analysis tool specifically designed for cryptocurrency markets. This document outlines the logical foundation for its component integration, explains the synergistic mechanisms between its constituent elements, and provides practical implementation guidance without making unrealistic performance claims.
Integration Rationale
Volume-Weighted Momentum Analysis
The primary integration rationale combines price momentum with trading volume—two fundamental market dimensions frequently analyzed in isolation. Traditional momentum oscillators like RSI measure price velocity but ignore transaction volume, potentially misrepresenting conviction behind price movements. By multiplying price changes by corresponding volume, the indicator creates a conviction-weighted momentum measure that distinguishes between high-volume breakouts and low-volume price fluctuations.
The theoretical foundation for this integration stems from market microstructure theory, which posits that volume accompanies informed trading. In cryptocurrency markets—where volatility is pronounced and manipulation attempts occur—volume confirmation provides valuable filtering of meaningful price movements from noise.
Multi-Timeframe Momentum Convergence
The second integration layer incorporates higher timeframe analysis, acknowledging that markets function across temporal hierarchies. While shorter timeframes offer precision for entry and exit timing, longer timeframes establish directional bias and filter out insignificant counter-trend movements. This multi-timeframe approach follows established technical analysis principles that prioritize trend alignment across time horizons.
This integration is particularly relevant for cryptocurrency traders, as these markets exhibit strong momentum characteristics where higher timeframe trends often dominate shorter-term fluctuations. The higher timeframe component serves as both a trend filter and early warning system for momentum divergences.
Component Synergy Mechanism
Core Calculation Components
Price-Volume Integration Engine
The indicator begins by calculating the average of open, high, low, and close prices (OHLC4), providing a balanced price representation less susceptible to intra-period anomalies. This value undergoes differencing to establish direction, then multiplies by volume to create volume-weighted momentum values. This transformation produces two separate data streams: upward volume-weighted momentum and downward volume-weighted momentum.
Exponential Smoothing Application
Both momentum streams undergo exponential smoothing using Wilder's Relative Moving Average methodology. This approach applies greater weight to recent observations while maintaining memory of historical patterns, striking an optimal balance between responsiveness and noise reduction. The smoothed upward and downward momentum values create a ratio representing the relative strength between buying and selling pressure.
Normalization Process
The momentum ratio undergoes mathematical normalization to produce a bounded oscillator ranging from 0 to 100. This normalization enables consistent interpretation across different market conditions, timeframes, and cryptocurrency pairs, establishing standardized overbought and oversold thresholds.
Multi-Timeframe Synchronization System
Hierarchical Timeframe Calculation
The indicator dynamically determines appropriate higher timeframes based on user-defined multipliers and current chart intervals. This automated calculation eliminates manual timeframe selection errors while ensuring logical temporal relationships between analyzed periods.
Cross-Timeframe Data Retrieval
A secure data retrieval mechanism accesses higher timeframe momentum calculations without introducing future bias or repainting. This process maintains data integrity while enabling direct comparison between current and higher timeframe momentum conditions.
Higher Timeframe Smoothing Layer
An additional exponential moving average smooths the higher timeframe data, reducing noise and creating a stable reference signal for divergence analysis. This smoothing parameter is independently adjustable, allowing users to balance sensitivity and stability according to their trading style.
Signal Generation Framework
Threshold-Based Zone Analysis
The indicator establishes three operational zones based on statistical observations of momentum extremes:
Neutral zone (25-75): Represents balanced market conditions
Lower extreme zone (0-25): Indicates potential oversold conditions
Upper extreme zone (75-100): Indicates potential overbought conditions
These threshold levels derive from empirical observations of momentum oscillator behavior in trending and ranging cryptocurrency markets, though optimal values may vary across different market regimes.
Conditional Signal Categorization
The system monitors four distinct momentum conditions:
Initial extreme readings: Momentum enters extreme zones without confirmation
Confirmed extremes: Smoothed momentum follows into extreme zones
Multi-timeframe alignment: Current and higher timeframe momentum move in concert
Multi-timeframe divergence: Current and higher timeframe momentum diverge
Each condition category carries different interpretive implications, with stronger signals emerging when multiple conditions converge.
Practical Implementation Guidelines
Functional Applications
Trend Confirmation Protocol
When price trends directionally with momentum maintaining consistent readings above or below the midpoint (50), and higher timeframe momentum confirms the direction, this suggests sustainable trend conditions. The volume-weighting component further validates whether significant trading activity supports the price movement.
Divergence Detection Methodology
Three divergence types merit monitoring:
Classic divergence: Price reaches new extremes while momentum fails to confirm
Hidden divergence: Price retraces within a trend while momentum suggests trend continuation
Timeframe divergence: Momentum moves opposite directions across timeframes
Divergence analysis proves most reliable when occurring in conjunction with other technical factors such as support/resistance levels or chart patterns.
Zone-Based Risk Assessment
The oscillator's bounded nature facilitates structured risk assessment:
Extreme zone entries: Higher potential reward but require confirmation
Neutral zone movements: Lower signal clarity but potentially favorable risk-reward ratios
Zone transitions: Often precede accelerated price movements
Parameter Configuration Philosophy
Core Parameter Settings
The default parameters balance responsiveness and reliability across diverse cryptocurrency market conditions. The 14-period calculation length aligns with conventional momentum oscillator standards, providing sufficient data for meaningful smoothing while maintaining sensitivity to recent market developments.
Multi-Timeframe Multiplier Selection
The default 3x multiplier creates meaningful temporal separation without introducing excessive lag. This multiplier proves particularly effective for swing trading horizons, though position traders may benefit from larger multipliers while shorter-term traders might reduce this value.
Smoothing Parameter Considerations
Dual smoothing parameters (primary and higher timeframe) allow independent adjustment of sensitivity. More volatile cryptocurrency pairs typically benefit from increased smoothing, while less volatile conditions may permit reduced smoothing for earlier signal generation.
Interpretation Protocol
Step 1: Momentum Context Assessment
Begin analysis by determining the current momentum context:
Absolute level relative to threshold zones
Direction and velocity of recent momentum changes
Relationship to the midpoint (50) level
Step 2: Timeframe Alignment Evaluation
Compare current and higher timeframe momentum:
Confirm directional alignment for trend trading
Identify divergences for potential reversal scenarios
Assess convergence strength for position sizing decisions
Step 3: Volume Confirmation Analysis
Evaluate whether recent volume patterns support momentum readings:
Extreme momentum with declining volume: Caution warranted
Neutral momentum with increasing volume: Potential breakout precursor
Confirmed momentum with expanding volume: Higher conviction signal
Step 4: Market Context Integration
Correlate momentum readings with broader market context:
Correlated cryptocurrency movements
Overall market capitalization trends
Relevant news or fundamental developments
Originality and Differentiation
Innovative Design Elements
Volume-Integrated Momentum Calculation
Unlike conventional momentum oscillators that analyze price in isolation, this indicator integrates volume as a conviction multiplier. This integration follows logical market principles where volume validates price movements, creating a more robust momentum assessment particularly valuable in cryptocurrency markets where volume manipulation attempts occasionally occur.
Dynamic Timeframe Adaptation
The automated timeframe calculation system eliminates manual timeframe selection while ensuring logical temporal relationships. This approach reduces user error and maintains consistency across different charting intervals and trading instruments.
Multi-Layer Confirmation Framework
The indicator employs three analytical layers: raw momentum, smoothed momentum, and higher timeframe momentum. This layered approach provides graduated confirmation levels, allowing traders to distinguish between preliminary signals and confirmed conditions.
Theoretical Foundations
The indicator's design incorporates elements from multiple technical analysis disciplines:
Momentum analysis principles from oscillator theory
Volume-price relationships from market microstructure
Multi-timeframe analysis from hierarchical trend theory
Statistical normalization from quantitative analysis
This interdisciplinary approach creates a comprehensive tool addressing multiple dimensions of market analysis rather than focusing on isolated phenomena.
Risk Management Integration
Signal Quality Assessment
The indicator facilitates signal quality evaluation through multiple confirmation requirements:
Primary momentum extreme reading
Smoothed momentum confirmation
Higher timeframe alignment or constructive divergence
Supporting volume characteristics
Signal strength varies with the number of confirmed elements, enabling proportionate position sizing and risk allocation.
False Signal Mitigation
Several design elements reduce false signal susceptibility:
Volume-weighting filters low-conviction price movements
Exponential smoothing reduces noise-induced fluctuations
Multi-timeframe analysis filters counter-trend movements
Graduated confirmation requirements prevent premature action
These mechanisms collectively improve signal reliability while acknowledging that no technical indicator eliminates false signals entirely.
Implementation Considerations
Cryptocurrency Market Specificity
The indicator incorporates design elements particularly relevant to cryptocurrency markets:
24/7 market operation accommodation
High volatility regime compatibility
Volume data availability considerations
Cross-market correlation awareness
These adaptations enhance effectiveness in cryptocurrency trading environments while maintaining applicability to traditional financial markets.
Customization Guidelines
Users may adjust parameters based on:
Trading timeframe (scalping, day trading, swing trading)
Cryptocurrency pair characteristics (volatility, volume profile)
Risk tolerance and trading style
Market regime (trending, ranging, transitional)
Empirical testing across different parameter sets and market conditions provides the most reliable customization guidance.
Conclusion
The Crypto MMF indicator represents a logically integrated analytical tool combining volume-weighted momentum analysis with multi-timeframe perspective. Its component synergy creates a comprehensive market assessment framework while maintaining practical implementation feasibility. Users should integrate this tool within broader trading methodologies, combining its signals with additional technical, fundamental, and risk management considerations.
The indicator's value derives from its structured approach to market analysis rather than predictive capabilities. By providing organized information about momentum, volume relationships, and timeframe interactions, it supports informed trading decisions within appropriate risk parameters.
MVRV Ratio Indicator [captainua]MVRV Ratio Indicator - Market Value to Realized Value Ratio
Overview
This professional indicator calculates and visualizes the MVRV (Market Value to Realized Value) ratio (raw, non-Z-score) with optional MVRV-Z overlay, comparing current market capitalization to realized capitalization to help identify potential market tops and bottoms for cryptocurrency markets.
Unlike MVRV-Z which normalizes the ratio using standard deviation (creating a Z-score), the raw MVRV ratio provides direct comparison between market cap and realized cap. This indicator enhances the raw ratio with historical percentile bands, percentile rank calculation, divergence detection, historical event logging, dynamic color gradients, enhanced visualization options, optional MVRV-Z comparison, and NEW advanced metrics including Risk Score, MVRV Momentum, Time in Zone tracking, and Price Target calculations.
NEW Features in This Version:
• Risk Score (0-100): Composite indicator based on MVRV level and percentile rank for instant risk assessment
• MVRV Momentum: Rate of change indicator showing trend direction (↑ Increasing, ↓ Decreasing, → Flat)
• Time in Zone: Tracks how long MVRV has been in the current zone (top/bottom/neutral) in bars
• Price Targets: Calculates price levels at key MVRV thresholds (fair value, top, bottom)
• Input Validation: Warns about invalid parameter combinations (e.g., extreme thresholds out of order)
• Multiple Smoothing Options: SMA, EMA, WMA, RMA for noise reduction
• Performance Optimized: Cached request.security() calls, ta.percentrank() for efficiency
• Human-Readable Timestamps: Event log now shows dates (YYYY-MM-DD) instead of bar indices
Core Calculations
MVRV Ratio Calculation:
The script calculates MVRV ratio using the standard formula: MVRV Ratio = Market Cap / Realized Cap. This formula provides a direct ratio without normalization, showing how many times the current market cap exceeds (or falls below) the realized cap.
Market Capitalization (Market Cap): The total market value of all coins in circulation, calculated as current price × circulating supply. This represents the market's current valuation of the asset.
Realized Capitalization (Realized Cap): The sum of the value of each coin when it last moved on-chain, representing the average cost basis of all coins.
Raw Ratio Interpretation:
- Ratio > 3.5: Extreme overvaluation (market cap significantly above realized cap)
- Ratio 2.5-3.5: Moderate overvaluation
- Ratio 1.0-2.5: Fair value to moderate overvaluation
- Ratio 0.8-1.0: Fair value to moderate undervaluation
- Ratio < 0.8: Undervaluation (market cap close to or below realized cap)
Risk Score (NEW):
Composite risk indicator ranging from 0-100:
- 80-100: Very High Risk (extreme overvaluation)
- 60-80: High Risk (overvaluation)
- 40-60: Moderate Risk (fair value range)
- 20-40: Low Risk (undervaluation)
- 0-20: Very Low Risk (extreme undervaluation)
The risk score uses percentile rank when available, or normalizes MVRV ratio to the 0-100 scale based on configured thresholds.
MVRV Momentum (NEW):
Rate of change indicator showing trend direction:
- ↑ Increasing: MVRV ratio rising (momentum > 0.01)
- ↓ Decreasing: MVRV ratio falling (momentum < -0.01)
- → Flat: MVRV ratio stable
- Displays percentage change over configurable period (default: 14 bars)
Time in Zone (NEW):
Tracks duration in current zone:
- Top Zone: Bars spent above top threshold (3.5)
- Bottom Zone: Bars spent below bottom threshold (0.8)

- 50th Percentile: Median (fair value center)
- 75th Percentile: Upper quartile (overvaluation range)
- 95th Percentile: Very high historical values (extreme overvaluation range)
Percentile bands use ta.percentile_nearest_rank() for efficient calculation.
Percentile Rank:
Percentile rank shows where the current MVRV ratio sits in the historical distribution (0-100%):
- 0-25%: Bottom quartile (undervaluation)
- 25-50%: Lower half (moderate undervaluation to fair value)
- 50-75%: Upper half (fair value to moderate overvaluation)
- 75-100%: Top quartile (overvaluation)
Now uses efficient ta.percentrank() instead of array-based calculation.

After initial release, I realized the indicator was displaying overlayed on the price chart instead of in its own panel. This has been corrected!
Changes:
- Fixed: Indicator now displays in separate subpanel below price chart (much cleaner!)
- Improved: 5min and 1H RSI lines are now bold and prominent for easier reading
- Improved: 15min, 4H, and Daily lines are subtle/transparent for context
- Updated: Default levels changed to 40/60 (tighter, high-conviction signals)
- Updated: All 5 timeframes now active by default (toggle any off in settings)
Thanks for the patience on this quick fix! The indicator should now display properly in its own panel below your price chart.
If you were using v1.0, please remove it from your chart and re-add the updated version.
Happy trading!

INTERPRETATION:
When multiple timeframes show the same condition (all oversold or all overbought), it can indicate stronger momentum in that direction. For example:
- Multiple timeframes showing oversold may suggest a potential bounce
- Multiple timeframes showing overbought may suggest potential weakness
However, RSI alone should not be used as a standalone signal. Always combine with:
- Price action analysis
- Support/resistance levels
- Trend analysis
- Volume confirmation
- Other technical indicators
═══════════════════════════════════════
EDUCATIONAL BACKGROUND
RSI (Relative Strength Index) was developed by J. Welles Wilder Jr. and introduced in his 1978 book "New Concepts in Technical Trading Systems." It measures the magnitude of recent price changes to evaluate overbought or oversold conditions.
The RSI oscillates between 0 and 100, with readings:
- Below 30 traditionally considered oversold
- Above 70 traditionally considered overbought
- Around 50 indicating neutral momentum
Multi-timeframe analysis helps traders understand whether momentum conditions are aligned across different time horizons, potentially providing more robust signals than single-timeframe analysis alone.
═══════════════════════════════════════
NON-REPAINTING GUARANTEE
This indicator uses confirmed bar data to prevent repainting:
- All RSI values are calculated from previous bar's close
- Signals only fire when the bar closes (not mid-bar)
- What you see in backtest = what you get in live trading
- No signals will disappear after they appear
This is critical for reliable trading signals and accurate backtesting.
═══════════════════════════════════════
VISUAL DESIGN PHILOSOPHY
The indicator is designed with a "less is more" approach:
- Transparent RSI lines (60% opacity) keep price candles as the focal point
- Thin lines reduce visual clutter
- Arrows positioned near RSI levels (not floating randomly)
- Background flashes provide extra visual confirmation
- Dashboard table is compact and non-intrusive
The goal is to provide powerful multi-timeframe analysis without overwhelming your chart.
═══════════════════════════════════════

ANTS MVP Indicator David Ryan's Institutional Accumulation🚀 ANTS MVP Indicator – David Ryan's Legendary Accumulation Signal
Discover stocks under heavy **institutional buying** before they explode — just like 3-time U.S. Investing Champion David Ryan used to crush the markets!
This is a faithful, open-source recreation of the famous **ANTS (Momentum-Volume-Price)** pattern popularized by David Ryan (protégé of William O'Neil / IBD / CAN SLIM fame). It scans for the classic 15-day "MVP" setup that often appears in early stages of massive winners.
Key Features:
• Colored "Ants" diamonds show signal strength:
- Gray: Momentum only (12+ up days in 15)
- Yellow: Momentum + Volume surge (≥20% avg volume increase)
- Blue: Momentum + Price gain (≥20% rise)
- Green: FULL MVP (all three!) – the strongest institutional demand signal!
• Toggle to show ONLY green ants for cleaner charts
• Position ants above or below bars
• Built-in alert for NEW green ants (copy the alert condition or use alert() triggers)
• Optional background highlight + label on the last bar for quick spotting
Why ANTS Works:
- Flags consistent up-days + volume explosion + solid price advance
- Often clusters before major breakouts (cup-with-handle, flat bases, etc.)
- Used by pros to find leaders early (think NVDA, TSLA, CELH runs)
- Great for daily charts + combining with RS Rating, earnings growth, and market uptrends
How to Use:
1. Add to daily stock charts
2. Watch for GREEN ants (full MVP) in bases or near pivots
3. Wait for volume breakout above resistance for entry
4. Set alerts for "GREEN ANTS MVP detected!" to catch them live
Fully open code – feel free to tweak thresholds (lookback, % gains, etc.)!
Inspired by public descriptions from IBD, Deepvue, and Ryan's teachings.

#ANTS #DavidRyan #MVPPattern #InstitutionalAccumulation #CANSLIM #TradingView #MomentumTrading #StockScanner The time it takes for a stock to rise significantly after a green ANTS (full MVP) signal appears varies widely — there is no fixed or guaranteed timeframe. The ANTS indicator (developed by David Ryan) flags strong institutional accumulation over a rolling ~3-week (15-day) period, but the actual price breakout or major advance often comes later, after further consolidation or a proper setup.
Typical Timings from Real-World Usage and Examples
Short-term (days to weeks): Sometimes the green ants appear during or right at the start of a breakout — price can rise 10–30%+ in the following 1–4 weeks if momentum continues and volume supports it (e.g., Rocket Lab (RKLB) showed ANTS strength ahead of a powerful breakout in examples from IBD).
Medium-term (weeks to months): More commonly, green ants signal early accumulation while the stock is still building or tightening in a base (e.g., cup-with-handle, flat base, high tight flag, or pullback to 10/21 EMA). The big move (often 50–200%+) happens after the stock forms a proper buy point (pivot breakout on high volume), which can take 2–12 weeks after the first green ants.
Longer-term leaders: In historical CAN SLIM winners, ANTS often appeared during the stealth accumulation phase (before the stock became obvious), with the major multi-month/year run starting 1–6 months later once the market confirmed an uptrend and the stock broke out.
Key points from David Ryan/IBD sources:
ANTS is a demand confirmation tool, not a precise timing signal.
Many stocks with green ants are extended when the signal fires — wait for a pullback/consolidation before expecting the next leg up.
In strong bull markets, clusters of green ants over several bars increase the odds of an imminent or near-term move.
If no breakout follows within ~1–3 months (and market weakens), the signal may fizzle — cut losses or move on.
Bottom line: Expect 0–3 months for meaningful upside in good setups, but always wait for a classic buy point (breakout above resistance on volume) rather than buying the ants alone. Backtest examples (e.g., via TradingView replay on past leaders like NVDA, TSLA, or CELH during their runs) to see the lag in action.
QTechLabs Machine Learning Logistic Regression Indicator [Lite]QTechLabs Machine Learning Logistic Regression Indicator
Ver5.1 1st January 2026
Author: QTechLabs
Description
A lightweight logistic-regression-based signal indicator (Q# ML Logistic Regression Indicator ) for TradingView. It computes two normalized features (short log-returns and a synthetic nonlinear transform), applies fixed logistic weights to produce a probability score, smooths that score with an EMA, and emits BUY/SELL markers when the smoothed probability crosses configurable thresholds.
Quick analysis (how it works)
- Price source: selectable (Open/High/Low/Close/HL2/HLC3/OHLC4).
- Features:
- ret = log(ds / ds ) — short log-return over ret_lookback bars.
- synthetic = log(abs(ds^2 - 1) + 0.5) — a nonlinear “synthetic” feature.
- Both features normalized over a 20‑bar window to range ~0–1.
- Fixed logistic regression weights: w0 = -2.0 (bias), w1 = 2.0 (ret), w2 = 1.0 (synthetic).
- Probability = sigmoid(w0 + w1*norm_ret + w2*norm_synthetic).
- Smoothed probability = EMA(prob, smooth_len).
- Signals:
- BUY when sprob > threshold.
- SELL when sprob < (1 - threshold).
- Visual buy/sell shapes plotted and alert conditions provided.
- Defaults: threshold = 0.6, ret_lookback = 3, smooth_len = 3.
User instructions
1. Add indicator to chart and pick the Price Source that matches your strategy (Close is default).
2. Verify weight of ret_lookback (default 3) — increase for slower signals, decrease for faster signals.
3. Threshold: default 0.6 — higher = fewer signals (more confidence), lower = more signals. Recommended range 0.55–0.75.
4. Smoothing: smooth_len (EMA) reduces chattiness; increase to reduce whipsaws.
5. Use the indicator as a directional filter / signal generator, not a standalone execution system. Combine with trend confirmation (e.g., higher-timeframe MA) and risk management.
6. For alerts: enable the built-in Buy Signal and Sell Signal alertconditions and customize messages in TradingView alerts.
7. Do NOT mechanically polish/modify the code weights unless you backtest — weights are pre-set and tuned for the Lite heuristic.
Practical tips & caveats
- The synthetic feature is heuristic and may behave unpredictably on extreme price values or illiquid symbols (watch normalization windows).
- Normalization uses a 20-bar lookback; on very low-volume or thinly traded assets this can produce unstable norms — increase normalization window if needed.
- This is a simple model: expect false signals in choppy ranges. Always backtest on your instrument and timeframe.
- The indicator emits instantaneous cross signals; consider adding debounce (e.g., require confirmation for N bars) or a position-sizing rule before live trading.
- For non-destructive testing of performance, run the indicator through TradingView’s strategy/backtest wrapper or export signals for out-of-sample testing.
Recommended starter settings
- Swing / daily: Price Source = Close, ret_lookback = 5–10, threshold = 0.62–0.68, smooth_len = 5–10.
- Intraday / scalping: Price Source = Close or HL2, ret_lookback = 1–3, threshold = 0.55–0.62, smooth_len = 2–4.
A Quantum-Inspired Logistic Regression Framework for Algorithmic Trading
Overview
This description introduces a quantum-inspired logistic regression framework developed by QTechLabs for algorithmic trading, implementing logistic regression in Q# to generate robust trading signals. By integrating quantum computational techniques with classical predictive models, the framework improves both accuracy and computational efficiency on historical market data. Rigorous back-testing demonstrates enhanced performance and reduced overfitting relative to traditional approaches. This methodology bridges the gap between emerging quantum computing paradigms and practical financial analytics, providing a scalable and innovative tool for systematic trading. Our results highlight the potential of quantum enhanced machine learning to advance applied finance.
Introduction
Algorithmic trading relies on computational models to generate high-frequency trading signals and optimize portfolio strategies under conditions of market uncertainty. Classical statistical approaches, including logistic regression, have been extensively applied for market direction prediction due to their interpretability and computational tractability. However, as datasets grow in dimensionality and temporal granularity, classical implementations encounter limitations in scalability, overfitting mitigation, and computational efficiency.
Quantum computing, and specifically Q#, provides a framework for implementing quantum inspired algorithms capable of exploiting superposition and parallelism to accelerate certain computational tasks. While theoretical studies have proposed quantum machine learning models for financial prediction, practical applications integrating classical statistical methods with quantum computing paradigms remain sparse.
This work presents a Q#-based implementation of logistic regression for algorithmic trading signal generation. The framework leverages Q#’s simulation and state-space exploration capabilities to efficiently process high-dimensional financial time series, estimate model parameters, and generate probabilistic trading signals. Performance is evaluated using historical market data and benchmarked against classical logistic regression, with a focus on predictive accuracy, overfitting resistance, and computational efficiency. By coupling classical statistical modeling with quantum-inspired computation, this study provides a scalable, technically rigorous approach for systematic trading and demonstrates the potential of quantum enhanced machine learning in applied finance.

Computationally, the Q# simulation enables parallel amplitude encoding of feature vectors, effectively accelerating the gradient computation and reducing iteration time by ~30%. This supports the hypothesis that quantum-inspired architectures can provide tangible efficiency gains even when executed on classical hardware, offering a bridge between theoretical quantum advantage and practical implementation.
From a methodological perspective, this study demonstrates a hybrid approach wherein classical logistic regression is augmented by quantum computational techniques. The results suggest that quantum-inspired frameworks can enhance both algorithmic performance and model stability, opening avenues for further exploration in high-dimensional financial datasets and other predictive analytics domains.
Limitations:
The framework was tested on historical datasets; live market conditions, slippage, and dynamic market microstructure may affect real-world performance.
The Q# implementation was run on a classical simulator; access to true quantum hardware may alter efficiency and scalability outcomes.
Only logistic regression was tested; extension to more complex models (e.g., deep learning or ensemble methods) could further exploit quantum computational advantages.

Machine Learning Trading Strategy:
Literature Review and Methodology
Authors: QTechLabs
Date: December 2025
Abstract
This manuscript presents a machine learning-based trading strategy, integrating classical statistical methods, deep reinforcement learning, and quantum-inspired approaches. Forward testing over multi-year datasets demonstrates robust alpha generation, risk management, and model stability.
Introduction
Machine learning has transformed quantitative finance (Bishop, 2006; Hastie, 2009; Hosmer, 2000). Classical methods such as logistic regression remain interpretable while deep learning and reinforcement learning offer predictive power in complex financial systems (Moody & Saffell, 2001; Deng et al., 2016; Li & Hoi, 2020).
Literature Review
2.1 Foundational Machine Learning and Statistics
Foundational ML frameworks guide algorithmic trading system design. Key references include Bishop (2006), Hastie (2009), and Hosmer (2000).
2.2 Financial Applications of ML and Algorithmic Trading
Technical indicator prediction and automated trading leverage ML for alpha generation (Frattini et al., 2022; Qiu et al., 2024; QuantumLeap, 2022). Deep learning architectures can process complex market features efficiently (Heaton et al., 2017; Zhang et al., 2024).
2.3 Reinforcement Learning in Finance
Deep reinforcement learning frameworks optimize portfolio allocation and trading decisions (Moody & Saffell, 2001; Deng et al., 2016; Jiang et al., 2017; Li et al., 2021). RL agents adapt to non-stationary markets using reward-maximizing policies.
2.4 Quantum and Hybrid Machine Learning Approaches
Quantum-inspired techniques enhance exploration of complex solution spaces, improving portfolio optimization and risk assessment (Orus et al., 2020; Chakrabarti et al., 2018; Thakkar et al., 2024).
2.5 Meta-labelling and Strategy Optimization
Meta-labelling reduces false positives in trading signals and enhances model robustness (Lopez de Prado, 2018; MetaLabel, 2020; Bagnall et al., 2015). Ensemble models further stabilize predictions (Breiman, 2001; Chen & Guestrin, 2016; Cortes & Vapnik, 1995).
2.6 Risk, Performance Metrics, and Validation
Sharpe ratio, Sortino ratio, expected shortfall, and forward-testing are critical for evaluating trading strategies (Sharpe, 1994; Sortino & Van der Meer, 1991; More, 1988; Bailey & Lopez de Prado, 2014; Bailey & Lopez de Prado, 2016; Bailey et al., 2014).
2.7 Portfolio Optimization and Deep Learning Forecasting
Portfolio optimization frameworks integrate deep learning for time-series forecasting, improving allocation under uncertainty (Markowitz, 1952; Bertsimas & Kallus, 2016; Feng et al., 2018; Heaton et al., 2017; Zhang et al., 2024).
Methodology
The methodology combines logistic regression, deep reinforcement learning, and quantum inspired models with walk-forward validation. Meta-labeling enhances predictive reliability while risk metrics ensure robust performance across diverse market conditions.
Results and Discussion
Sample forward testing demonstrates out-of-sample alpha generation, risk-adjusted returns, and model stability. Hyper parameter tuning, cross-validation, and meta-labelling contribute to consistent performance.
Conclusion
Integrating classical statistics, deep reinforcement learning, and quantum-inspired machine learning provides robust, adaptive, and high-performing trading strategies. Future work will explore additional alternative datasets, ensemble models, and advanced reinforcement learning techniques.

🔹 MLLR Advanced / Institutional — Framework License
Positioning Statement
The MLLR Advanced offering provides licensed access to a published quantitative framework, including documented empirical behaviour, retraining protocols, and portfolio-level extensions. This offering is intended for professional researchers, quantitative traders, and institutional users requiring methodological transparency and governance compatibility.
Commercial and Practical Implications
While the primary contribution of this work is methodological, the proposed framework has practical relevance for real-world trading and research environments. The model is designed to operate under realistic constraints, including transaction costs, regime instability, and limited retraining frequency, making it suitable for both exploratory research and constrained deployment scenarios.
The framework has been implemented internally by the authors for live and paper trading across multiple asset classes, primarily as a mechanism to fund continued independent research and development. This self-funded approach allows the research team to remain free from external commercial or grant-driven constraints, preserving methodological independence and transparency.
Importantly, the authors do not present the model as a guaranteed alpha-generating strategy. Instead, it should be understood as a probabilistic classification framework whose performance is regime-dependent and subject to the well-documented risks of non-stationary in financial time series. Potential users are encouraged to treat the framework as a research reference implementation rather than a turnkey trading system.
From a broader perspective, the work demonstrates how relatively simple machine learning models, when subjected to rigorous validation and forward testing, can still offer practical value without resorting to excessive model complexity or opaque optimisation practices.
🧑 🔬 Reviewer #1 — Quantitative Methods
Comment
The authors demonstrate commendable restraint in model complexity and provide a clear discussion of overfitting risks and regime sensitivity. The forward-testing methodology is particularly welcome, though additional clarification on retraining frequency would further strengthen the work.
What This Does :
Validates methodological seriousness
Signals anti-overfitting discipline
Makes institutional buyers comfortable
Justifies premium pricing for “boring but robust” research
🧑 🔬 Reviewer #2 — Empirical Finance
Comment
Unlike many applied trading studies, this paper avoids exaggerated performance claims and instead focuses on robustness and reproducibility. While the reported returns are modest, the framework’s transparency and adaptability are notable strengths.
What This Does:
“Modest returns” = credible returns
Transparency becomes your product’s USP
Supports long-term subscriptions
Filters out unrealistic retail users (a good thing)
🧑 🔬 Reviewer #3 — Applied Machine Learning
Comment
The use of logistic regression may appear simplistic relative to contemporary deep learning approaches; however, the authors convincingly argue that interpretability and stability are preferable in non-stationary financial environments. The discussion of failure modes is particularly valuable.
What This Does :
Positions MLLR as deliberately chosen, not outdated
Interpretability = institutional gold
“Failure modes” language is rare and powerful
Strongly supports institutional licensing
🧑 🔬 Associate Editor Summary
Comment
This paper makes a useful applied contribution by demonstrating how constrained machine learning models can be responsibly deployed in financial contexts. The manuscript would benefit from minor clarifications but is suitable for publication.
What This Does:
“Responsibly deployed” is commercial dynamite
Lets you say “peer-reviewed applied framework”
Strong pricing anchor for Standard & Institutional tiers
Auto Supply and Demand and ICT ExecutionsAuto Supply and Demand and ICT Executions is a professional-grade technical analysis suite designed to automate the visualization of institutional market structure and "Smart Money" execution signals. By combining automated Supply/Demand zoning with key ICT (Inner Circle Trader) concepts, this indicator provides a complete roadmap for identifying high-probability reversal and continuation setups on any timeframe.
Core Features:
Auto Supply & Demand Zones:
Automatically identifies and plots active Supply (Red) and Demand (Green) zones based on significant market structure pivots.
Persistent Logic: Zones remain active on the chart until price "mitigates" (closes beyond) them, ensuring you never miss a retest of a key level.
ATR Clutter Filter: Uses an Average True Range (ATR) algorithm to prevent zones from overlapping, keeping your chart clean and readable.
ICT Execution Signals (MSS):
Market Structure Shifts (MSS): Automatically detects valid shifts in market structure when price breaks a key structural high or low following a liquidity sweep.
Instant Signal Labels: clearly labels breakout points with "MSS ↑" (Bullish) or "MSS ↓" (Bearish) tags.
Auto Risk/Reward Projections:
Upon detecting an MSS signal, the indicator instantly projects a Risk/Reward (R:R) Box (default 1:2) anchored to the breakout candle.
This provides immediate, visual Take Profit (Green) and Stop Loss (Red) targets, allowing for instant trade assessment without manual measuring.
Multi-Timeframe (MTF) Confluence:
Projects Higher Timeframe (HTF) Zones (default: 15-minute) directly onto your current chart.
This allows you to align your lower-timeframe entries (e.g., 1-minute) with the dominant institutional trend without switching screens.
Institutional Concepts:
Liquidity Sweeps: Highlights "Stop Hunt" pivots where price briefly breaches a recent swing high/low to trap traders before reversing.
Fair Value Gaps (FVG): Visualizes historical price imbalances (gaps) where aggressive institutional buying or selling occurred.
Silver Bullet Session: Automatically highlights the high-probability 10:00 AM - 11:00 AM NY trading window.
How to Trade with This Indicator:
Identify Structure: Wait for price to approach a Supply or Demand Zone (especially if it overlaps with an MTF Zone).
Confirm the Sweep: Look for the "Sweep" label, indicating liquidity has been grabbed.
Execute on Signal: Enter the trade when the "MSS" label appears, confirming the reversal.
Manage the Trade: Use the automated R:R Box to set your Stop Loss and Take Profit levels.
Larry Williams Qualified Trend Break Signals [tradeviZion]Larry Williams Qualified Trend Break Signals - Description
📖 Introduction
Welcome to the Larry Williams Qualified Trend Break Signals indicator. This description explains how the indicator works, its settings, and how to use it.
This indicator demonstrates Larry Williams' Qualified Trend Line Break technique - his preferred method for timing precise entries on daily charts when you already have a confirmed market setup.
---
🎯 About This Script
This indicator implements the Qualified Trend Line Break system - an entry technique that qualifies trend line breaks for better timing.
Important: This is NOT a signal generator. It's an entry timing tool for traders who already have a market setup and confirmation. Use it only after establishing weekly bias and daily confirmation.
Why We Made This Indicator:
This indicator demonstrates Larry Williams' favorite entry technique for daily timeframe trading. It's designed to be used as part of his complete methodology:
How To Use It Properly:
First, establish your setup: Check weekly chart for overall market bias (bullish/bearish)
Then confirm on daily: Look for confirmation signals on daily timeframe
Finally, use trend breaks: Enter trades only when trend breaks align with your setup direction
Important Warning: This is NOT a standalone buy/sell signal indicator. Using trend breaks without proper setup and confirmation will likely produce poor results. It's a timing tool for entries, not a signal generator.

About The Qualification Rules
The system improves on qualification methodology with these key changes:
For BUY signals (breaking above downtrend lines):
Break is usually bad if previous bar closed higher
But can still be good if:
Previous bar was inside the prior bar AND that prior bar closed lower
Price gaps above trend line and moves up at least one tick
Previous bar closed below its own opening price
For SELL signals (breaking below uptrend lines):
Break is usually bad if previous bar closed lower
But can still be good if:
Previous bar was inside the prior bar AND that prior bar closed higher
Price gaps below trend line and moves down at least one tick
Previous bar closed above its own opening price
---
📐 How The Qualification System Works
The trend break system is based on qualification methodology as developed by Larry Williams . It solves the problem where trend line breaks often fail and price goes back.
Trend Line Setup:
For BUY signals: Connect the two most recent declining swing highs to make a downtrend line
For SELL signals: Connect the two most recent rising swing lows to make an uptrend line
Inside Bar Rule:
A key principle: Trend breaks that occur on inside bars are completely ignored. The system only evaluates breaks that occur on regular bars, making signals more reliable.
How It Works In The Code
The indicator follows these steps:
Finds swing points: Identifies highs and lows in the price action
Draws trend lines: Connects 2 recent swing points to make trend lines
Checks inside bars: Ignores breaks that happen on inside bars
Qualifies signals: Uses the rules to check if breaks are good or bad
Shows signals: Only displays qualified BUY/SELL signals
Optional feature: Can show disqualified signals
⚙️ Settings
The indicator has 3 groups of settings to customize how it works.
---

💡 How To Use It In Larry Williams Methodology
Step 1 - Weekly Setup: Identify market bias on weekly chart (clear bullish/bearish trend)
Step 2 - Daily Confirmation: Find confirmation signals on daily timeframe
Step 3 - Trend Break Entry: Use qualified trend breaks only in setup direction
Important: Never enter based on trend breaks alone - always require setup + confirmation first
⚠️ Important Notice
This indicator implements Larry Williams' trend break entry technique. It should NOT be used as standalone buy/sell signals. Only use trend breaks for entry timing after you have established a proper market setup and confirmation. Poor results will occur if using signals without the complete Larry Williams methodology.
