Smart Money Gap [Algo Seeker]Introduction – Originality and usefulness
It is important for traders to diversify their strategies, and having a few approaches for different situations is key to increasing their odds of success.
These days, substantial information and important events happen so fast and so often that all the noise created afterward makes people forget the events that were actually worth remembering.
The same can be said about trading and investing. Every day, there seems to be something new happening and new price action unfolding, which can make it difficult for traders to filter out the noise and stay focused on relevant events. But for every problem, a solution can be born.
🟠 Unique Features & Trading Benefits
The SMG aims to be a system that helps traders filter out what it deems to be irrelevant noise and stay focused on what matters most. In addition, SMG provides multiple plans and ways to act on that information.
The reason it’s called “Smart Money Gap” is because this algorithm is designed to identify the most relevant price action—whether it's earnings, an economic calendar event, a stock-specific development, major news, or institutional activity. It determines which of these situations is the most current and relevant, and it keeps the focus on that. This means that day in and day out, traders and investors can rely on a consistent plan and framework that is automatically drawn up for them, helping them trade with confidence that they’re acting on meaningful price levels. When the algorithm identifies a new event as more important, it will switch focus and build a new system around that.
SMG also goes a step further—it understands that different types of traders, such as scalpers, swing traders, or investors, have different time horizons and risk tolerance regarding how long they plan to hold a position and how much space and time they are willing to give a move. With that in mind, SMG provides different trading modes for these personas, selecting events that match the criteria needed for that specific trader.
For instance, a scalper may benefit from a smaller, more recent event that provides quick entry and exit opportunities—whereas an investor might focus on something more significant and long-term. SMG takes this into consideration and builds its entire framework accordingly.
🟠 Description of the Unique SMG (Continued) – How It Works Together as One System
The true power of SMG begins once a relevant event is identified, and the entire system is automatically displayed on the user’s chart. From that single event, SMG generates a structured framework that produces three distinct strategies. Each of these strategies takes inspiration from fundamentals within trading but gives it our own unique twist inside the SMG system. These strategies can be used individually or in combination, depending on the trader’s style and market context.
🟢 1. Filling the Smart Money Gap
One of the key opportunities is to trade the SMG itself—the “gap” created by the specific event. Gap fills are a strategy that traders and investors like to use. SMG continuously tracks how much of this unique gap has been filled, so users are never confused about how much remains. They can reference the shaded region or the percentage-left box for clarity.
🟢 2. Targeting SMG-Based Extensions and Retracements
When the SMG zone is created, the algorithm simultaneously generates extension and retracement levels tied to that event. These levels remain anchored to the original structure, providing consistent, event-driven targets. Unlike the constantly redrawn lines many traders adjust throughout the day, these levels stay fixed and reflect meaningful price action—not noise.
🟢 3. Executing Trades Based on SMG Volume
Because SMGs are tied to meaningful events, they often remain valid for an extended time. This is where Anchored VWAP becomes critical. From the moment the event occurs, SMG begins calculating volume-based data. The longer the event goes unchanged, the more powerful and influential the Anchored VWAP and its deviation bands become—due to the increasing accumulation of volume over time. These volume layers not only help refine entries and exits—they also serve as additional points of confluence where traders can place stops, take profits, or re-enter trades with greater context and confidence.
In conclusion:
SMG is designed to help traders diversify their portfolio of strategies even further. It creates an entire system that filters out noise and builds a strategy around a key event—and it will stay focused on that event until another becomes more relevant. SMG gives traders the ability to react calmly, with a plan that is automatically laid out for them. This is a special algorithm that we’ve incorporated into our approach for over three years, and we hope users will find it to be a valuable aid in their trading journey.
🟠 How to Use
Initial Setup
🟢 1. Select Trading Mode:
Choose from six built-in personas—Scalp 1, Scalp 2, Swing 1, Swing 2, Invest 1, and Invest 2—based on your trading style. Each persona adjusts the SMG logic to fit the risk profile and time horizon of that specific persona.
1. Scalp: For intraday movements (minutes to hours)
• Best used on faster charts (1-minute to 30-minute)
2. Swing: For medium-term positions (days to weeks)
• Best used on 1-hour to daily charts
3. Investor: For longer-term positions (weeks to months)
• Best used on 1-hour to daily charts
🟢 2. Choose SMG Update Behavior: Bar Close vs Live Update:
By default, SMG waits until all conditions are met and the bar closes before updating. This ensures confirmed structure and helps avoid noise or repainting.
If “Update Before Bar Closes?” is selected, the algorithm updates as soon as all conditions are met — even if the bar hasn’t closed yet. This allows earlier updates but may result in elements that repaint if the conditions don’t hold through the close.
Keep this setting unchecked if you prefer confirmed, non-repainting elements.
🟢 3. Visual Customization:
Customize the appearance of SMG zones, extension labels, and volume-derived levels via the “SMG Zone” and “Anchored VWAP” settings groups. This includes:
1. Zone colors and opacity
2. Label positions
3. Retracement display toggle
4. Anchored VWAP and ±1, ±2, ±3 deviation bands
Extra Notes on User Customization:
• Bull Box Color – the color used when SMG retracement is active
• Final Bull Box Color – the color used when SMG retracement is finished
• Same logic applies to Bear Box Color and Final Bear Box Color
• Retracement % Label – If the label is hard to see, it may be overlapping with the Fib labels depending on your chart zoom. To adjust, bring the Retracement % Label Indent closer to 1 to shift it left. Then increase the Fib Label Indent value to move those labels further right.
🟠 Strategic Execution
Strategy Usage Example
🟢 1. Entry & Exit Tactics Within the SMG
Use the shaded Smart Money Gap as a decision-making framework. Traders may choose to:
1. Fade a retracement (shorting or exiting as price retraces into the SMG)
2. Enter on signs of continuation (rejoining the move after a partial retrace)
3. Wait for the gap to fill completely and reverse
Volume-weighted Anchored VWAP levels add an additional layer—helping assess whether price is entering or rejecting volume consensus zones.
🟢 2. Extension Targeting:
When price resumes in the original direction, SMG plots potential extension levels. These can be used to:
1 Set take-profit or stop-loss targets
2. Spot exhaustion areas
3 Evaluate whether to scale in, take partial profits, or re-enter a position
🟢 3. Volume-Based Execution via Anchored VWAP:
For traders looking to incorporate volume into execution—especially when an SMG has remained active for an extended period—Anchored VWAP and its deviation bands can be used to:
1. Confirm direction or momentum via VWAP slope and interaction
2. Enter or fade positions at volume-backed levels
3. Set dynamic entries or exits as volume builds or thins across deviations
⚠️Optional Update Behavior: Bar Close vs Live Update
By default, SMG waits until all conditions are met and the bar closes before updating. This ensures confirmed structure and helps avoid noise or repainting.
If “Update Before Bar Closes?” is selected, the algorithm updates as soon as all conditions are met — even if the bar hasn’t closed yet. This allows earlier updates but may result in elements that repaint if the conditions don’t hold through the close.
Keep this setting unchecked if you prefer confirmed, non-repainting elements.
⚠️ Interpreting Anchored VWAP Behavior
Anchored VWAP and its deviation bands become more relevant with time as they widen and separate. While tight and accumulating near price, it may be worth holding off on using VWAP for entries or exits until expansion begins.
🟠 Additional Description – SMG Table Overview
The SMG table presents four key pieces of information to help traders quickly understand the current setup at a glance:
1) If the Algo is set for dynamic or bar close
2) Which trading mode they currently have selected
3) What type of SMG gap is displayed
4) how much of the Retracement is done
🟠 Additional Benefits:
🟢 1. Risk Profile Options
Trading personas allow users to instantly switch between different risk profiles—Scalp, Swing, or Investor—at the click of a button. This helps traders quickly align the system to their preferred holding period and risk tolerance without reconfiguring inputs.
🟢 2. Time Efficiency
SMG saves traders time by creating a complete system around each Smart Money Gap. From gap logic to retracement tracking, extension targets, and volume levels—everything needed to trade the SMG is generated at once, eliminating the need for manual setup or separate tools.
The Smart Money Gap represents years of development and refinement aimed at creating a unified, event-driven trading system. It was designed to help traders manage through the constant noise of the market, and we hope that traders benefit from having an additional tool to support and diversify their trading strategy.
Heatmap Trailing Stop with Breakouts (Zeiierman)█ Overview
Heatmap Trailing Stop with Breakouts (Zeiierman) is a trend and breakout detection tool that combines dynamic trailing stop logic, Fibonacci-based levels, and a real-time market heatmap into a single, intuitive system.
This indicator is designed to help traders visualize pressure zones, manage stop placement, and identify breakout opportunities supported by contextual price–derived heat. Whether you're trailing trends, detecting reversals, or entering on explosive breakouts — this tool keeps you anchored in structure and sentiment.
It projects adaptive trailing stop levels and calculates Fibonacci extensions from swing-based extremes. These levels are then colored by a market heatmap engine that tracks price interaction intensity — showing where the market is "hot" and likely to respond.
On top of that, it includes breakout signals powered by HTF momentum conditions, trend direction, and heatmap validation — giving you signals only when the context is strong.
█ How It Works
⚪ Trailing Stop Engine
At its core, the script uses an ATR-based trailing stop with trend detection:
ATR Length – Defines volatility smoothing using EMA MA of true range.
Multiplier – Expands/retracts the trailing offset depending on market aggression.
Real-Time Extremum Tracking – Uses local highs/lows to define Fibonacci anchors.
⚪ Fibonacci Projection + Heatmap
With each trend shift, Fibonacci levels are projected from the new swing to the current trailing stop. These include:
Fib 61.8, 78.6, 88.6, and 100% (trailing stop) lines
Heatmap Coloring – Each level'slevel's color is determined by how frequently price has interacted with that level in the recent range (defined by ATR).
Strength Score (1–10) – The number of touches per level is normalized and averaged to create a heatmap ""score"" displayed as a colored bar on the chart.
⚪ Breakout Signal System
This engine detects high-confidence breakout signals using a higher timeframe candle structure:
Bullish Breakout – Strong bullish candle + momentum + trend confirmation + heatmap score threshold.
Bearish Breakout – Strong bearish candle + momentum + trend confirmation + heatmap score threshold.
Cooldown Logic – Prevents signals from clustering too frequently during volatile periods.
█ How to Use
⚪ Trend Following & Trail Stops
Use the Trailing Stop line to manage positions or time entries in line with trend direction. Trailing stop flips are highlighted with dot markers.
⚪ Fibonacci Heat Zones
The projected Fibonacci levels serve as price magnets or support/resistance zones. Watch how price reacts at Fib 61.8/78.6/88.6 levels — especially when they're glowing with high heatmap scores (more glow = more historical touches = stronger significance).
⚪ Breakout Signals
Enable breakout signals when you want to trade breakouts only under strong context. Use the "Heatmap Strength Threshold" to require a minimum score (1–10).
█ Settings
Stop Distance ATR Length – ATR period for volatility smoothing
Stop Distance Multiplier – Adjusts the trailing stop'sstop's distance from price
Heatmap Range ATR Length – Defines how far back the heatmap scans for touches
Number of Heat Levels – Total levels used in the heatmap (more = finer resolution)
Minimum Touches per Level – Defines what counts as a ""hot"" level
Heatmap Strength Threshold – Minimum average heat score (1–10) required for breakouts
Timeframe – HTF source used to evaluate breakout momentum structure

Fibonacci Optimal Entry Zone [OTE] (Zeiierman)█ Overview
Fibonacci Optimal Entry Zone (Zeiierman) is a high-precision market structure tool designed to help traders identify ideal entry zones during trending markets. Built on the principles of Smart Money Concepts (SMC) and Fibonacci retracements, this indicator highlights key areas where price is most likely to react — specifically within the "Golden Zone" (between the 50% and 61.8% retracement).
It tracks structural pivot shifts (CHoCH) and dynamically adjusts Fibonacci levels based on real-time swing tracking. Whether you're trading breakouts, pullbacks, or optimal entries, this tool brings unparalleled clarity to structure-based strategies.
Ideal for traders who rely on confluence, this indicator visually synchronizes swing highs/lows, market structure shifts, Fibonacci retracement levels, and trend alignment — all without clutter or lag.
⚪ The Structural Assumption
Price moves in waves, but key retracements often lead to continuation or reversal — especially when aligned with structure breaks and trend shifts.
The Optimal Entry Zone captures this behavior by anchoring Fibonacci levels between recent swing extremes. The most powerful area — the Golden Zone — marks where institutional re-entry is likely, providing traders with a sniper-like roadmap to structure-based entries.
█ How It Works
⚪ Structure Tracking Engine
At its core, the indicator detects pivots and classifies trend direction:
Structure Period – Determines the depth of pivots used to detect swing highs/lows.
CHoCH – Break of structure logic identifies where the trend shifts or continues, marked visually on the chart.
Bullish & Bearish Modes – Independently toggle uptrend and downtrend detection and styling.
⚪ Fibonacci Engine
Upon each confirmed structural shift, Fibonacci retracement levels are projected between swing extremes:
Custom Levels – Choose which retracements (0.50, 0.618, etc.) are shown.
Real-Time Adjustments – When "Swing Tracker" is enabled, levels and labels update dynamically as price forms new swings.
Example:
If you disable the Swing Tracker, the Golden Level is calculated using the most recent confirmed swing high and low.
If you enable the Swing Tracker, the Golden Level is calculated from the latest swing high or low, making it more adaptive as the trend evolves in real time.
█ How to Use
⚪ Structure-Based Entry
Wait for CHoCH events and use the resulting Fibonacci projection to identify entry points. Enter trades as price taps into the Golden Zone, especially when confluence forms with swing structure or order blocks.
⚪ Real-Time Reaction Tracking
Enable Swing Tracker to keep the tool live — constantly updating zones as price shifts. This is especially useful for scalpers or intraday traders who rely on fresh swing zones.
█ Settings
Structure Period – Number of bars used to define swing pivots. Larger values = stronger structure.
Swing Tracker – Auto-updates fib levels as new highs/lows form.
Show Previous Levels – Keep older fib zones on chart or reset with each structure shift.

Smart Range DetectorSmart Range Detector
What It Does
This indicator automatically detects and validates significant trading ranges using pivot point analysis combined with logarithmic fibonacci relationships. It operates by identifying specific pivot patterns (High-Low-High and Low-High-Low) that meet fibonacci validation criteria to filter out noise and highlight only the most reliable trading ranges. Each range is continuously monitored for potential mitigation (breakout) events.
Key Features
Identifies both High-Low-High and Low-High-Low range patterns
Validates each range using logarithmic fibonacci relationships (more accurate than linear fibs)
Detects range mitigations (breakouts) and visually differentiates them
Shows fibonacci levels within ranges (25%, 50%, 75%) for potential reversal points
Visualizes extension levels beyond ranges for breakout targets
Analyzes volume profile with customizable price divisions (default: 60)
Displays Point of Control (POC) and Value Area for traded volume analysis
Implements performance optimization with configurable range limits
Includes user-adjustable safety checks to prevent Pine Script limitations
Offers fully customizable colors, line widths, and transparency settings
How To Use It

Technical Details
The indicator uses logarithmic fibonacci calculations for more accurate price relationships
Volume profile analysis creates 60 price divisions by default (adjustable) for detailed volume distribution
All timestamps are properly converted to work with Pine Script's bar limitations
Safety checks prevent "array index out of bounds" errors that plague many complex indicators
Time-based coordinates are used instead of bar indices to prevent "bar index too far" errors
This indicator works well on all timeframes and instruments, but performs best on 5-minute to daily charts. Perfect for swing traders, range traders, and breakout strategists.
What Makes It Different
Most range indicators simply draw boxes based on recent highs and lows. Smart Range Detector validates each potential range using proven fibonacci relationships to filter out noise. It then adds sophisticated volume analysis to help traders identify the most significant price levels within each range. The performance optimization features ensure smooth operation even on lower timeframes and extended history analysis.

Accumulation (Aqua): Previous candle was Red, current candle is Green (Red -> Green).
Manipulation (Yellow): Previous candle was Green, current candle is Red (Green -> Red).
Distribution (Fuchsia): Two consecutive Red candles where the candle before the first Red was Not Red (Not Red -> Red -> Red).
Usage: Helps visually spot potential shifts in market behavior according to the AMD concept.
Previous Day's Fib Golden Zone (0.55-0.66):
What: Calculates a specific Fibonacci zone (between 55% and 66%) based on the previous day's range (High-Low).
How: Plots a horizontal box on the chart covering the calculated zone level. Uses the previous day's range direction (Green/Red candle) to determine if the zone is calculated up from the low (Green day) or down from the high (Red day).
Usage: Identifies a potential key retracement or support/resistance zone from the previous day's price action that may be relevant for the current day.
RSI (Relative Strength Index):
What: A classic momentum oscillator.
How: Calculates the RSI value based on the specified length and source. The dashboard shows the current value and flags it as Overbought (> OB level), Oversold (< OS level), or Neutral.
Usage: Provides context on momentum extremes. High RSI suggests strong upward momentum (potentially overextended), low RSI suggests strong downward momentum (potentially oversold).
Volume Spike Confirmation:
What: Compares current volume to its Moving Average.
How: Calculates a simple moving average of volume. Identifies a "Spike" if the current volume is significantly higher (multiplied by a factor) than the MA.
Usage: Provides a contextual check for increased activity accompanying price moves. (Note: In the current script, this is calculated and shown on the dashboard but not directly used in the signal label logic, though it could be added).
Risk Assessment (ATR):
What: Uses the Average True Range.
How: Calculates the ATR for the specified length. Compares the current ATR to a longer-term average ATR. Flags "High Risk" if the current ATR is significantly higher than the average.
Usage: Gives an indication of current volatility relative to recent history, which can inform stop-loss placement or position sizing.
Signals (Buy/Sell Labels):
What: Plots "BUY" or "SELL" labels on the chart.
How:
BUY Signal: Triggers when the Trend EMA starts moving Up on the previous bar AND the current bar is Green (close > open).
SELL Signal: Triggers when the Trend EMA starts moving Down on the previous bar AND the current bar is Red (close < open).
Usage: These are your potential entry triggers. They indicate that the fast EMA trend has just changed direction and the current candle is confirming that move with its color.
Dashboard:
What: A 2x5 table displayed on the chart (bottom right by default).
How: Shows the current status of:
Trend (Bull/Bear/Neutral)
Volume (Spike/Normal)
Last Signal (🟢 BUY, 🔴 SELL, or None)
Risk (High/Normal based on ATR)
RSI (Overbought/Oversold/Neutral + Current Value)
Usage: Provides a quick, centralized summary of multiple indicator components without having to visually check every detail on the chart or separate panes.
How to Potentially Use It (Example Interpretation):
Look for a BUY signal (Green label) when:
The dashboard shows "🟢 BUY" as the Last Signal.
Consider additional confirmation: Is Volume status "Spike"? Is Risk "Normal"? Is RSI not "Overbought" (or perhaps just coming out of "Oversold" territory)? Is the price above/interacting positively with the Golden Zone?
Look for a SELL signal (Red label) when:
The dashboard shows "🔴 SELL" as the Last Signal.
Consider additional confirmation: Is Volume status "Spike"? Is Risk "Normal"? Is RSI not "Oversold" (or perhaps just coming out of "Overbought" territory)? Is the price below/interacting negatively with the Golden Zone?
Use the Sentiment Background and High/Low Channel Fill to quickly see the immediate trend and volatility context.
Watch AMD candles around key levels (like the Golden Zone or signal triggers) for potential pattern confirmation.
Check the Dashboard frequently for a summary of all these factors, even without a specific signal.
Strengths & Potential Benefits:
Comprehensive View: Integrates multiple popular trading concepts into a single indicator.
Visual Clarity: Uses colors, fills, labels, and a dashboard for easy interpretation.
Customizable: Inputs allow tuning the sensitivity of the EMA, Volume, ATR, and RSI to different assets/timeframes.
Dashboard Efficiency: Saves time by consolidating key status points.
Non-Repainting Signals: The buy/sell labels trigger and stay based on closed bar data.
Important Considerations & Limitations:
Fast EMA Sensitivity: An EMA length of 3 is very fast and prone to whipsaws, especially in choppy or ranging markets. Signals based solely on this could be frequent and unreliable in non-trending conditions.
Signal Logic: The core signal is only based on EMA direction change + candle color. While simple, it might miss opportunities or generate signals without broader market confirmation (like strong volume, favorable RSI position, or reaction at key levels). The dashboard provides these other factors as context, but they aren't required for the signal label in the current code.
Golden Zone Reliance: The previous day's Fib zone is just one potential level. It won't always be respected, and its relevance might vary significantly across different markets and timeframes.
AMD Patterns: The defined AMD patterns are specific. The market's "real" accumulation/manipulation/distribution might manifest in more complex ways.
Dashboard as Summary, Not Signal: Remember the dashboard shows the current status of all components on the last bar, but the BUY/SELL signal labels are based on a specific historical event (previous bar's EMA turn). You need to look at both: the label for the trigger, and the dashboard for the confluence of other factors right now.
Not a Standalone System: While called a "Trading System," no single indicator guarantees profitability. This tool provides signals and context, but requires a robust trading plan including stop losses, profit targets, position sizing, and potentially confluence with other analysis methods.
Timeframe Dependency: The ideal settings (EMA length, RSI length, etc.) will likely differ significantly between timeframes (e.g., 1-minute vs. 4-hour). Testing and optimization are crucial.
In Summary:
The "GCM Supreme Trading System Pro (Dashboard + RSI)" is a well-designed indicator that consolidates several useful analysis tools into a single view. Its strength lies in providing quick visual context and a clear signal trigger based on short-term trend shifts. However, like any indicator, it's not perfect. Its effectiveness will largely depend on the market conditions, the chosen settings, and how it's integrated into a comprehensive trading strategy, using the dashboard components as essential confirmation and risk assessment tools alongside the primary signal labels.

Therefore, one should always exercise caution and judgment when making decisions based on past performance.
Multi-Fibonacci Trend Average[FibonacciFlux]Multi-Fibonacci Trend Average (MFTA): An Institutional-Grade Trend Confluence Indicator for Discerning Market Participants
My original indicator/Strategy:
Engineered for the sophisticated demands of institutional and advanced traders, the Multi-Fibonacci Trend Average (MFTA) indicator represents a paradigm shift in technical analysis. This meticulously crafted tool is designed to furnish high-definition trend signals within the complexities of modern financial markets. Anchored in the rigorous principles of Fibonacci ratios and augmented by advanced averaging methodologies, MFTA delivers a granular perspective on trend dynamics. Its integration of Multi-Timeframe (MTF) filters provides unparalleled signal robustness, empowering strategic decision-making with a heightened degree of confidence.
MFTA indicator on BTCUSDT 15min chart with 1min RSI and MACD filters enabled. Note the refined signal generation with reduced noise.
MFTA indicator on BTCUSDT 15min chart without MTF filters. While capturing more potential trading opportunities, it also generates a higher frequency of signals, including potential false positives.
Core Innovation: Proprietary Fibonacci-Enhanced Supertrend Averaging Engine
The MFTA indicator’s core innovation lies in its proprietary implementation of Supertrend analysis, strategically fortified by Fibonacci ratios to construct a truly dynamic volatility envelope. Departing from conventional Supertrend methodologies, MFTA autonomously computes not one, but three distinct Supertrend lines. Each of these lines is uniquely parameterized by a specific Fibonacci factor: 0.618 (Weak), 1.618 (Medium/Golden Ratio), and 2.618 (Strong/Extended Fibonacci).
// Fibonacci-based factors for multiple Supertrend calculations
factor1 = input.float(0.618, 'Factor 1 (Weak/Fibonacci)', minval=0.01, step=0.01, tooltip='Factor 1 (Weak/Fibonacci)', group="Fibonacci Supertrend")
factor2 = input.float(1.618, 'Factor 2 (Medium/Golden Ratio)', minval=0.01, step=0.01, tooltip='Factor 2 (Medium/Golden Ratio)', group="Fibonacci Supertrend")
factor3 = input.float(2.618, 'Factor 3 (Strong/Extended Fib)', minval=0.01, step=0.01, tooltip='Factor 3 (Strong/Extended Fib)', group="Fibonacci Supertrend")
This multi-faceted architecture adeptly captures a spectrum of market volatility sensitivities, ensuring a comprehensive assessment of prevailing conditions. Subsequently, the indicator algorithmically synthesizes these disparate Supertrend lines through arithmetic averaging. To achieve optimal signal fidelity and mitigate inherent market noise, this composite average is further refined utilizing an Exponential Moving Average (EMA).
// Calculate average of the three supertends and a smoothed version
superlength = input.int(21, 'Smoothing Length', tooltip='Smoothing Length for Average Supertrend', group="Fibonacci Supertrend")
average_trend = (supertrend1 + supertrend2 + supertrend3) / 3
smoothed_trend = ta.ema(average_trend, superlength)
The resultant ‘Smoothed Trend’ line emerges as a remarkably responsive yet stable trend demarcation, offering demonstrably superior clarity and precision compared to singular Supertrend implementations, particularly within the turbulent dynamics of high-volatility markets.
Elevated Signal Confluence: Integrated Multi-Timeframe (MTF) Validation Suite
MFTA transcends the limitations of conventional trend indicators by incorporating an advanced suite of three independent MTF filters: RSI, MACD, and Volume. These filters function as sophisticated validation protocols, rigorously ensuring that only signals exhibiting a confluence of high-probability factors are brought to the forefront.
1. Granular Lower Timeframe RSI Momentum Filter
The Relative Strength Index (RSI) filter, computed from a user-defined lower timeframe, furnishes critical momentum-based signal validation. By meticulously monitoring RSI dynamics on an accelerated timeframe, traders gain the capacity to evaluate underlying momentum strength with precision, prior to committing to signal execution on the primary chart timeframe.
// --- Lower Timeframe RSI Filter ---
ltf_rsi_filter_enable = input.bool(false, title="Enable RSI Filter", group="MTF Filters", tooltip="Use RSI from lower timeframe as a filter")
ltf_rsi_timeframe = input.timeframe("1", title="RSI Timeframe", group="MTF Filters", tooltip="Timeframe for RSI calculation")
ltf_rsi_length = input.int(14, title="RSI Length", minval=1, group="MTF Filters", tooltip="Length for RSI calculation")
ltf_rsi_threshold = input.int(30, title="RSI Threshold", minval=0, maxval=100, group="MTF Filters", tooltip="RSI value threshold for filtering signals")
2. Convergent Lower Timeframe MACD Trend-Momentum Filter
The Moving Average Convergence Divergence (MACD) filter, also calculated on a lower timeframe basis, introduces a critical layer of trend-momentum convergence confirmation. The bullish signal configuration rigorously mandates that the MACD line be definitively positioned above the Signal line on the designated lower timeframe. This stringent condition ensures a robust indication of converging momentum that aligns synergistically with the prevailing trend identified on the primary timeframe.
// --- Lower Timeframe MACD Filter ---
ltf_macd_filter_enable = input.bool(false, title="Enable MACD Filter", group="MTF Filters", tooltip="Use MACD from lower timeframe as a filter")
ltf_macd_timeframe = input.timeframe("1", title="MACD Timeframe", group="MTF Filters", tooltip="Timeframe for MACD calculation")
ltf_macd_fast_length = input.int(12, title="MACD Fast Length", minval=1, group="MTF Filters", tooltip="Fast EMA length for MACD")
ltf_macd_slow_length = input.int(26, title="MACD Slow Length", minval=1, group="MTF Filters", tooltip="Slow EMA length for MACD")
ltf_macd_signal_length = input.int(9, title="MACD Signal Length", minval=1, group="MTF Filters", tooltip="Signal SMA length for MACD")
3. Definitive Volume Confirmation Filter
The Volume Filter functions as an indispensable arbiter of trade conviction. By establishing a dynamic volume threshold, defined as a percentage relative to the average volume over a user-specified lookback period, traders can effectively ensure that all generated signals are rigorously validated by demonstrably increased trading activity. This pivotal validation step signifies robust market participation, substantially diminishing the potential for spurious or false breakout signals.
// --- Volume Filter ---
volume_filter_enable = input.bool(false, title="Enable Volume Filter", group="MTF Filters", tooltip="Use volume level as a filter")
volume_threshold_percent = input.int(title="Volume Threshold (%)", defval=150, minval=100, group="MTF Filters", tooltip="Minimum volume percentage compared to average volume to allow signal (100% = average)")
These meticulously engineered filters operate in synergistic confluence, requiring all enabled filters to definitively satisfy their pre-defined conditions before a Buy or Sell signal is generated. This stringent multi-layered validation process drastically minimizes the incidence of false positive signals, thereby significantly enhancing entry precision and overall signal reliability.
Intuitive Visual Architecture & Actionable Intelligence
MFTA provides a demonstrably intuitive and visually rich charting environment, meticulously delineating trend direction and momentum through precisely color-coded plots:
Average Supertrend: Thin line, green/red for uptrend/downtrend, immediate directional bias.
Smoothed Supertrend: Bold line, teal/purple for uptrend/downtrend, cleaner, institutionally robust trend.
Dynamic Trend Fill: Green/red fill between Supertrends quantifies trend strength and momentum.
Adaptive Background Coloring: Light green/red background mirrors Smoothed Supertrend direction, holistic trend perspective.
Precision Buy/Sell Signals: ‘BUY’/‘SELL’ labels appear on chart when trend touch and MTF filter confluence are satisfied, facilitating high-conviction trade action.
MFTA indicator applied to BTCUSDT 4-hour chart, showcasing its effectiveness on higher timeframes. The Smoothed Length parameter is increased to 200 for enhanced smoothness on this timeframe, coupled with 1min RSI and Volume filters for signal refinement. This illustrates the indicator's adaptability across different timeframes and market conditions.
Strategic Applications for Institutional Mandates

Whether you're contemplating a new position or evaluating an existing one, the " Danger Signals " indicator is designed to provide the clarity needed to avoid potential pitfalls and capitalize on opportunities with confidence. Embrace a smarter way to trade, where awareness and preparation open the door to success.
Let's dive into each of the components of this indicator.
Volume: Volume refers to the number of shares or contracts traded in a security or an entire market during a given period. It is a measure of the total trading activity and liquidity, indicating the overall interest in a stock or market.
Price Action: the analysis of historical prices to inform trading decisions, without the use of technical indicators. It focuses on the movement of prices to identify patterns, trends, and potential reversal points in the market.
Relative Strength Line: The RS line is a popular tool used to compare the performance of a stock, typically calculated as the ratio of the stock's price to a benchmark index's price. It helps identify outperformers and underperformers relative to the market or a specific sector. The RS value is calculated by dividing the close price of the chosen stock by the close price of the comparative symbol (SPX by default).
Average True Range (ATR): ATR is a market volatility indicator used to show the average range prices swing over a specified period. It is calculated by taking the moving average of the true ranges of a stock for a specific period. The true range for a period is the greatest of the following three values:
The difference between the current high and the current low.
The absolute value of the current high minus the previous close.
The absolute value of the current low minus the previous close.
Average Daily Range (ADR): ADR is a measure used in trading to capture the average range between the high and low prices of an asset over a specified number of past trading days. Unlike the Average True Range (ATR), which accounts for gaps in the price from one day to the next, the Average Daily Range focuses solely on the trading range within each day and averages it out.
Anchored VWAP: AVWAP gives the average price of an asset, weighted by volume, starting from a specific anchor point. This provides traders with a dynamic average price considering both price and volume from a specific start point, offering insights into the market's direction and potential support or resistance levels.
Moving Averages: Moving Averages smooth out price data by creating a constantly updated average price over a specific period of time. It helps traders identify trends by flattening out the fluctuations in price data.
Stochastic: A stochastic oscillator is a momentum indicator used in technical analysis that compares a particular closing price of an asset to a range of its prices over a certain period of time. The theory behind the stochastic oscillator is that in a market trending upwards, prices will tend to close near their high, and in a market trending downwards, prices close near their low.
While each of these components offer unique insights into market behavior, providing sell signals under specific conditions, the power of combining these different signals lies in their ability to confirm each other's signals. This in turn reduces false positives and provides a more reliable basis for trading decisions
These signals can be recognized at any time, however the indicators power is in it's ability to take into account where a trade is in terms of your entry price and stop.
If a trade just started, it hasn’t earned much leeway. Kind of like a new employee that shows up late on the first day of work. It’s less forgivable than say the person who has been there for a while, has done well, is on time, and then one day comes in late.
Contextual Sensitivity:
For instance, a high volume sell-off coupled with a bearish price action pattern significantly strengthens the sell signal. When the price closes below an Anchored VWAP or a critical moving average in this context, it reaffirms the bearish sentiment, suggesting that the momentum is likely to continue downwards.
By considering the relative strength line (RS) alongside volume and price action, the indicator can differentiate between a normal retracement in a strong uptrend and a when a stock starts to become a laggard.
The integration of ATR and ADR provides a dynamic framework that adjusts to the market's volatility. A sudden increase in ATR or a character change detected through comparing short-term and long-term ADR can alert traders to emerging trends or reversals.
The "Danger Signals" indicator exemplifies the power of integrating diverse technical indicators to create a more sophisticated, responsive, and adaptable trading tool. This approach not only amplifies the individual strengths of each indicator but also mitigates their weaknesses.

Uses Fibonacci sequences for trend analysis.
Smooths the trend data to create a clear oscillator.
Offers adjustable oversold and overbought levels for customized analysis.
Inputs:
Max Fib Number: Select the highest Fibonacci number for trend calculation.
Smooth: Adjust the smoothness of the oscillator line.
Using the Oscillator:
A rising oscillator indicates a bullish trend, while a falling oscillator suggests bearish sentiment.
Oversold and overbought levels help identify potential reversal points.
Use the oscillator in conjunction with other indicators for comprehensive market analysis.
Tips for Effective Use:
Adjusting Fibonacci Levels: Experiment with different 'Max Fib Number' settings to find the one that best matches your trading style and the asset's characteristics. Higher Fibonacci numbers consider longer periods, which might be more suitable for long-term trend analysis.
Smoothing Level: The 'Smooth' input helps in reducing noise. A higher smooth level results in a less responsive but smoother line, which can be useful for identifying the overall trend direction.
Interpreting Overbought/Oversold: Watch for the oscillator reaching overbought or oversold levels. These points could signal potential trend reversals or consolidation phases.

Its adjustable settings allow for customization to fit various trading styles and market conditions, making it a versatile tool for traders seeking to enhance their technical analysis capabilities.
Volume Profile - BearJust another Volume Profile but you can fit into your chart better by moving back and forth horizontally. also note you can fix the number of bars to show the volume by that way you can use a fib retracment to line up high/low volume nodes with fib levels... see where price as bad structure. or just play with the colors to make a cool gradient?
Volume Profile is a technical analysis tool used by traders to analyze the distribution of trading volume at different price levels within a specified time frame. It helps traders identify key support and resistance levels, potential areas of price reversals, and areas of high trading interest. Here's how to read Volume Profile on a trading chart:
1. **Choose a Time Frame**: Decide on the time frame you want to analyze. Volume Profile can be applied to various time frames, such as daily, hourly, or even minute charts. The choice depends on your trading style and goals.
2. **Plot the Volume Profile**: Once you have your chart open, add the Volume Profile indicator. Most trading platforms offer this tool. It typically appears as a histogram or a series of horizontal bars alongside the price chart.
3. **Identify Key Elements**:
a. **Value Area**: The Value Area represents the price range where the majority of trading volume occurred. It is often divided into three parts: the Point of Control (POC) and the upper and lower value areas. The POC is the price level where the most trading activity occurred and is considered a significant support or resistance level.
b. **High-Volume Nodes**: High-volume nodes are price levels where there was a significant amount of trading volume. These nodes can act as support or resistance levels because they represent areas where many traders had their positions.
c. **Low-Volume Areas**: Conversely, low-volume areas are price levels with little trading activity. These areas may not provide strong support or resistance because they lack significant trader interest.
4. **Interpretation**:
- If the price is trading above the POC and the upper value area, it suggests bullish sentiment, and these levels may act as support.
- If the price is trading below the POC and the lower value area, it suggests bearish sentiment, and these levels may act as resistance.
- High-volume nodes can also act as support or resistance, depending on the price's current position relative to them.
5. **Confirmation**: Volume Profile should be used in conjunction with other technical analysis tools and indicators to confirm trading decisions. Consider using trendlines, moving averages, or other price patterns to validate your trading strategy.
6. **Adjust for Different Time Frames**: Keep in mind that Volume Profile analysis can yield different results on different time frames. For example, a support level on a daily chart may not hold on a shorter time frame due to intraday volatility.
7. **Practice and Experience**: Like any trading tool, reading Volume Profile requires practice and experience. Analyze historical charts, paper trade, and refine your strategies over time to gain proficiency.
8. **Stay Informed**: Stay updated with market news and events that can impact trading volume. Sudden news can change the significance of volume levels.
Apeiron Fair Value Bands ProWHAT IS IT
The Apeiron Fair Value Bands Pro is an indicator that estimates the fair value area of an asset and provides levels of interest and likely reaction. It was created to determine fair value. Knowing fair value allows traders and investors to determine when an asset is at a premium or at a discount, which allows them to make more informed decisions about when to buy or sell. Fair value is constantly changing, and sometimes waiting for it to develop each session or month can lead to missed opportunities. Therefore, it is useful to have an estimate of fair value at all times.
HOW DOES IT WORK?
The simplest way to have a constant estimation of fair value could probably be a Moving Average. By averaging previous prices, we get the average price which ideally reflects where most traders have been interested in participating in the market. This isn’t necessarily the most accurate fair value estimation you can get, however using different types of moving averages and combining them allows for a better estimation of the FV. It is also important to consider that price is always moving away and back into the MA, so in order to determine FV, we must allow an area for price to move within which we can consider the FVA. By taking into account volatility, previous relevant levels and the MA, the Apeiron Bands determine a FVA, where in theory price should stay most of the time.
According to the normal distribution, the price should stay within 1 standard deviation (SD) around 68% of the time and within 2 SD around 95% of the time during range periods (when data is most symmetrical). In the case of the Apeiron Bands, based on backtest data, the price tends to stay within 1 FVA around 75% of the time, within 2 FVA around 90% of the time during strong trends, around 80% and 95% correspondingly during weak trends, and >85% and >95% during ranges.
Additionally, based on backtesting data, pivots occur on average at around 1 FVA ±0.05 (This does not necessarily mean that most pivots occur at 1 FVA, however, the fact the average is 1±0.05 implies there is relevance to this level).
Finally, in order to account for volatility and the slight differences between symbols, a customizable tolerance ribbon is added to the moving average (MA) and each plotted band.
This data remains the same throughout all timeframes and types of market (tested on cryptocurrencies, forex pairs, stocks, indices and futures)
Examples of the time spent within the FVAs:
Examples of average pivot FVA :
HOW TO USE IT?
Identify potential reversal levels at premium and discount prices:
Knowing that price stays within 1 FVA the majority of time and inside 2 FVA most of the time, as well that in average pivots occur around 1 FVA, it can be inferred that both the Bands representing 1 & 2 FVA (B1 & B2) work as potential reversal levels as shown in the examples. This can be very good in confluence with other strategies to spot trade entries. If this is done taking into account if the asset is at a premium or discount allows for a higher probability of being on the right side of the market.
For example, during an uptrend price sometimes goes below it’s MA only to then continue up. In this particular case, the bands would provide an ideal entry at a discount to ride the uptrend.
During ranges, the bands can be used to identify potential pivots for each move up and down, and because of their adaptive nature they can be a great confluence to which horizontal levels are more likely to act as support and resistance.
For intraday traders, the bands can help them identify assets at one of the extremes and potentially even inside one of the bands, indicating that price is likely to reverse from there. Then they can use LTF to find ideal entries or catch the trend with the bands.
For swing traders and investors, using the bands can be a good way to scan different assets to find extended prices to either side and potential entry levels
Identify emerging trends:
Sometimes price will have a minimum reaction to the bands or no reaction at all. Knowing that price spends most of the time inside the bands, the fact that it breaks out of the FVA indicates that a new trend is likely to begin on that particular TF and price will try to establish a new FVA. Once there is a sustained PA outside the bands, a new trend can be assumed (Deviations happen as well, so it is very important to be aware of higher TF as well).
Other times, price will start sliding between B1 and B2, slowly displacing the MA. This can also be an indication for the start of a trend.
Identify exhaustions (potential tops & bottoms):
I call exhaustions to scenarios when price keeps going up/down but it fails to keep pushing the FVA with it. This indicates weakness in the trend and that a new FVA is being established. This often leads to a potential reversal or correction that marks the top or bottom of a move. Not only that, but when the new FVA is established price tends to go and test the other side of the FVA. Identifying exhaustions and being patient for them to form can potentially provide a great entry and RR ratio.
Exhaustions also happen after strong rallies or crashes, and in these cases it is advised to wait for price to re-enter its FVA, providing more clarity and often even better entries.
Exhaustions appear in all timeframes and symbols, however they can take some time to develop and it is important to be patient with them. And as always, it is highly recommended to also check for confluence on different TF.

4H Bands:
Additional Features:
- Additional Bands:
The Apeiron Fair Value Bands can plot up to 4 Bands. Each fully customizable. The preset and suggested use is to have B1 & B2 and add thinner aid bands B0.5 & B1.5 which represent the middle of 1 & 2 FVA. These are not the main levels of interest but they can prove useful as support and resistance many times. Besides using mid levels, using fib values (0.618 & 1.618) can work even better on some assets and give better reactions.
NATGAS 1H Bands - Fib Mids:
The extra bands can also be used for FVA 3 and FVA 4, which can be useful during extremely volatile periods or on very LTF
- Multi Timeframe & precision:
The bands work on very low TF as well as High TF. Sometimes data can be limited on HTF and the bands will not have enough to be calculated and many LTF are very volatile and don’t work as well. In these scenarios, the bands have a setting called “Precision” under the preferences section that allows the user to decrease or increase the amount of data taken into account. This allows for optimization on any TF and even on any symbol.
GOLD 1min Bands:
EURUSD 5D Bands:
VIX 1H Bands:
- Multi Bands Confluence:
Combining 2 different length FV bands can be very useful to find confluence levels and spot trends and reversals earlier. For example, on the 15 min TF, using a 50 MA with only 1 FVA at the same time as a 200 MA with all Band can be ideal to keep track of short term moves and their micro-trends while always considering the longer trend which might be different that the short term one. As well, having MTF band confluence can indicate that a level is more likely to signal a reversal if reached.
- Multi Timeframe Confluence:
One of the best ways to use the bands is by using it in confluence with itself in other TFs, when price moves sharply into a confluent level given by multiple TFs’ Bands, it is more likely for price to find support and resistance and/or reverse there. Ex. 5 Min B2, 15 Min B1.5 & 30 Min B1, if price reaches this confluent level and shows weakness, this is likely a short term reversal level.
NATGAS MTF Bands:
How to set it up and customize it: (Explain how they are important)
- The MA Lab:
The Apeiron Bands utilizes a MA Lab to generate the most customizable MAs possible. It allows combining up to 3 different MAs, where each MA can be single, double or triple (same process as creating a DEMA or TEMA). As well each MA can be given more or less weight in the calculation of the final MA. Besides it’s features, the MA Lab allows the user to select only one MA and stick to basic settings and MA types if preferred.
When to use the MA Lab:
If you wanted a reactive MA (EMA) which was also volume weighted, you can then combine it with a VWMA and get a VW-EMA.
If you want a more reactive VWMA you can double or triple it. Then in order to make it smoother you combine it with a SMMA. Finally maybe you want to use it to follow trends closely so you also combine it with a HMA to take momentum into consideration.
- Presets:
The multiplier for each band, the width of each tolerance ribbon and the individual colors of each band can all be individually selected. However, to make the user's experience as smooth as possible, FVA multipliers, Ribbon width and colors can be preset and modified all at the same time with the most basic and ideal settings. This allows for quick customization options as well as personalized detailed custom settings.
- Show only Lower or Upper bands:
This setting is meant for scouting for discounts and premiums across the board. By only showing bands on one side it cleans up the chart and makes it easier to spot important levels on only one side of the price. This can be very useful when looking for swing opportunities or when following a particular trend to only focus on potential entries for it.

Settings used in indicator preview:
- Custom MA: 200 EMA/200 WMA/200 SMMA (200 EWSMMA)

Disclaimer:
The bands CAN but are NOT meant to be used as a standalone indicator. Previous performance does not guarantee future performance. The bands are an analytical tool, not a signal indicator. While certain scenarios can be interpreted as a signal, never follow them blindly and always use them in confluence with other analysis, systems or indicators.
HTF FVG D/W/M 25%/50%/75% [MK]Do you use HTF FVG (fair value gaps) in your trading strategy? Do you monitor price on the 25%/50%/75% levels within the FVG on a lower timeframe?
This script will allow the user to display either Daily, Weekly or Monthly FVGs on a lower timeframe chart. The script will then also show the 25%/50%/75% levels within the HTF FVG so traders can see how price reacts in the FVG.
For example, a Weekly FVG may be chosen by the trader as a possible reversal point, or somewhere to add to an existing position. The trader might want to see the FVG almost fully filled, then watch price climb up/down out of the Weekly FVG
before taking the trade.
Previously traders would draw the FVG to the chart, then use maybe the tradingview fib tool to display the 25%/50%/75% levels. The problem with this is that its easy to accidently move the fib while dragging the chart around.
Chart below shows example of price almost filling a D FVG, then using the 25%/50%/75% levels as it climbs out of the FVG and reverses to the upside.
Planetary Tunings Moving AveragesThe Pine Script "Planetary Tunings Moving Averages" is a unique tool that plots moving averages (MAs) on a chart, representing the wavelengths of different planets as derived from the book Quadrivium. These wavelengths, also referred to as 'planetary tunings', are related to the orbital resonance of each planet.
Each planetary tuning value is first transformed into a whole number by multiplying it by 1000 and removing the decimal. This whole number is then used as the length parameter for a Simple Moving Average (SMA) function. This function calculates the average of the closing prices over the defined number of periods, thereby creating a moving average line on the chart.
The moving average lines are color-coded according to the planet they represent, allowing for quick and easy interpretation. For example, Mercury's moving average line is blue, Venus's line is orange, and so forth. These colors can be adjusted directly in the Pine Script code if desired.
Additionally, the script computes the mean of all these moving averages and plots it on the chart. This line provides an overall trend line, summarizing the collective behavior of all the planetary tuning moving averages.
The drawings in the chart are fib channels and fib circles that I use to capture liquidity in time.
Please note that this script is written for Pine Script Version 4. It's crucial to ensure your TradingView platform is compatible with this version. For any issues or further clarification, consider referring to TradingView's Pine Script documentation or its community forums.
RSI Exponential Smoothing (Expo)█ Background information
The Relative Strength Index (RSI) and the Exponential Moving Average (EMA) are two popular indicators. Traders use these indicators to understand market trends and predict future price changes. However, traders often wonder which indicator is better: RSI or EMA.
What if these indicators give similar results? To find out, we wanted to study the relationship between RSI and EMA. We focused on a hypothesis: when the RSI goes above 50, it might be similar to the price crossing above a certain length of EMA. Similarly, when the RSI goes below 50, it might be similar to the price crossing below a certain length of EMA.
Our goal was simple: to figure out if there is any connection between RSI and EMA.
Conclusion: Yes, it seems that there is a correlation between RSI and EMA, and this indicator clearly displays that relationship. Read more about the study here:
█ Overview of the indicator
The RSI Exponential Smoothing indicator displays RSI levels with clear overbought and oversold zones, shown as easy-to-understand moving averages, and the RSI 50 line as an EMA. Another excellent feature is the added FIB levels. To activate, open the settings and click on "FIB Bands." These levels act as short-term support and resistance levels which can be used for scalping.
█ Benefits of using this indicator instead of regular RSI
The findings about the Relative Strength Index (RSI) and the Exponential Moving Average (EMA) highlight that both indicators are equally accurate (when it comes to crossings), meaning traders can choose either one without compromising accuracy. This empowers traders to pick the indicator that suits their personal preferences and trading style.
█ How it works
Crossings over/under the value of 50
The EMA line in the indicator acts as the corresponding 50 line in the RSI. When the RSI crosses the value 50 equals when Close crosses the EMA line.
Bouncess from the value 50
In this example, we can see that the EMA line on the chart acts as support/resistance equals when RSI rejects the 50 level.
Overbought and Oversold
The indicator comes with overbought and oversold bands equal when RSI becomes overbought or oversold.
█ How to use
This visual representation helps traders to apply RSI strategies directly on the price chart, potentially making RSI trading easier for traders.

Donchian Channel Oscillator (DonOsc) Preface
DonOsc stands for Donchian Channel Oscillator. This channel envelopes all prices, so if you set the height of the channel to 100 percent, you can plot the prices as percent in between, creating this sub-pane oscillator. For clarity the example chart shows a Donchian channel in the main-pane with the same look-back as the DonOsc, this way you can see how both are related.
Price River
Not only the close is plotted, but also the high and the low of the bar. Thus you get a structure that can be associated with a river, streaming from left to right, in which the price moves between the left bank (i.e. the plotted highs) and the right bank (i.e. the plotted lows), which meanders between the high border (100%) and the low border (0%) of the oscillator. The surface of the price river is gray. The price line is blue when up and dark red when down. The river has also color patches dark red, light red, blue and aqua. Stochastic patches; up: aqua, down: light red
If you look at the price river, you may notice that the price line is closer to the left bank (highs) when moving up and to the right bank (lows) when moving down. Because this phenomenon is used in the stochastic indicator, I named these stochastic patches. These are depicted on the wide side for visibility, so the aqua patches are to the right of the price line and the light-red patches to the left.
Widening patches; up: blue, down: red
If you look at tops or bottoms in bar charts, you may notice that long bars (wide range) tend to be there. You may say that prices turn with a ‘range bang’. This causes a widening of the price river, depicted as a patch on the wide side.
Channel Features
High (76.4 %) and low (23.6 %) Fibonacci levels.
In the oscillator there is no need to calculate Fibonacci levels, we can just plot them. If the price is above 50% the low level is shown with a green color, when below the high level with a pink color. When the price river crosses a level a ‘near border’ highlighter will flash, lime near the high border and orange near the low one.
New high and new low markers.
A flaw in the oscillator is that is doesn’t show actual new lows and new highs in the Donchian Channel, because everything is made relative. This is ‘repaired’ by adding markers, dark red for new low depicted between the high fib and border, blue for new high depicted between low fib and border. Used are the same colors as in the widening patches, because new highs and lows also lead to widening of the actual Channel.
Uptrend and downtrend highlighters.
If in the actual Channel the bars run in the upper half, an uptrend is happening as long as these remain there, a downtrend when the bars remain in the lower half. In the oscillator a yellow highlighter flashes when the price is higher than 50%, a red highlighter below 50%.
Interpretation of the DonOsc
This sub-pane indicator provides a wealth of useful information about what is going on in the market. First of all you immediately see whether there is an up or down trend and whether these lead to new highs or lows. Second of all you can estimate the importance of price movements in the context of the look-back period. Thirdly the width of the price river reveals the emotions in the market. The higher the emotions run, the more risk is involved in a postilion in the charted instrument.
Settings of the DonOsc
Look-back settings.
By default the script sets the look-back, depending on the time frame. This overrules the standard manual setting. If you switch this off, the manual setting will work. A feed-back label can by shown which informs about the current setting.
Smoothing
This concerns the price river. Default is 2, if you increase this setting, the river will loose its touch with the channel borders. O.t.o.h. the river wil be wider and better visible. Maximum setting is 5.
Colors
The momentum colors set both the river widening patches and new high and low markers.
Take care, Eykpunter.
