Trend Counter [theEccentricTrader]█ OVERVIEW
This indicator counts the number of confirmed trend scenarios on any given candlestick chart and displays the statistics in a table, which can be repositioned and resized at the user's discretion.
█ CONCEPTS
Green and Red Candles
• A green candle is one that closes with a high price equal to or above the price it opened.
• A red candle is one that closes with a low price that is lower than the price it opened.
Swing Highs and Swing Lows
• A swing high is a green candle or series of consecutive green candles followed by a single red candle to complete the swing and form the peak.
• A swing low is a red candle or series of consecutive red candles followed by a single green candle to complete the swing and form the trough.
Peak and Trough Prices (Basic)
• The peak price of a complete swing high is the high price of either the red candle that completes the swing high or the high price of the preceding green candle, depending on which is higher.
• The trough price of a complete swing low is the low price of either the green candle that completes the swing low or the low price of the preceding red candle, depending on which is lower.
Upper Trends
• A return line uptrend is formed when the current peak price is higher than the preceding peak price.
• A downtrend is formed when the current peak price is lower than the preceding peak price.
• A double-top is formed when the current peak price is equal to the preceding peak price.
Lower Trends
• An uptrend is formed when the current trough price is higher than the preceding trough price.
• A return line downtrend is formed when the current trough price is lower than the preceding trough price.
• A double-bottom is formed when the current trough price is equal to the preceding trough price.
Muti-Part Upper and Lower Trends
• A multi-part return line uptrend begins with the formation of a new return line uptrend, or higher peak, and continues until a new downtrend, or lower peak, completes the trend.
• A multi-part downtrend begins with the formation of a new downtrend, or lower peak, and continues until a new return line uptrend, or higher peak, completes the trend.
• A multi-part uptrend begins with the formation of a new uptrend, or higher trough, and continues until a new return line downtrend, or lower trough, completes the trend.
• A multi-part return line downtrend begins with the formation of a new return line downtrend, or lower trough, and continues until a new uptrend, or higher trough, completes the trend.

Table
The table is colour coded, consists of seven columns and, as many as, forty-one rows. Blue cells denote the multi-part trend scenarios, green cells denote the corresponding return line uptrend and uptrend scenarios and red cells denote the corresponding downtrend and return line downtrend scenarios.
The trend scenarios are listed in the first column with their corresponding total counts to the right, in the second and fifth columns. The last row in column one, displays the sample period which can be adjusted or hidden via indicator settings.
The third and sixth columns display the trend scenarios as percentage of total 1-part trends. And columns four and seven display the total trend scenarios as percentages of the, last, or preceding trend part. For example 4-part trends as a percentages of 3-part trends. This offers more insight into what might happen next at any given point in time.
Plots
For a visual aid to this indicator please use in conjunction with my Return Line Uptrends, Downtrends, Uptrends and Return Line Downtrends indicators which can all be found on my profile page under scripts, or in community scripts under the same names. Unfortunately, I could not fit all the plots with the correct offsets into one script so I had to make a separate indicator for each trend type. I decided against labels as this would limit the visual data points to 500.
Green up-arrows, with the number of the trend part, denote return line uptrends and uptrends. Red down-arrows, with the number of the trend part, denote downtrends and return line downtrends.
█ HOW TO USE
This is intended for research purposes, strategy development and strategy optimisation. I hope it will be useful in helping to gain a better understanding of the underlying dynamics at play on any given market and timeframe.
It can, for example, give you an idea of whether the current trend will continue or fail, based on the current trend scenario and what has happened in the past under similar circumstances. Such information can be very useful when conducting top down analysis across multiple timeframes and making strategic decisions.
What you do with these statistics and how far you decide to take your research is entirely up to you, the possibilities are endless.
█ LIMITATIONS
Some higher timeframe candles on tickers with larger lookbacks such as the DXY , do not actually contain all the open, high, low and close (OHLC) data at the beginning of the chart. Instead, they use the close price for open, high and low prices. So, while we can determine whether the close price is higher or lower than the preceding close price, there is no way of knowing what actually happened intra-bar for these candles. And by default candles that close at the same price as the open price, will be counted as green. You can avoid this problem by utilising the sample period filter.
The green and red candle calculations are based solely on differences between open and close prices, as such I have made no attempt to account for green candles that gap lower and close below the close price of the preceding candle, or red candles that gap higher and close above the close price of the preceding candle. I can only recommend using 24-hour markets, if and where possible, as there are far fewer gaps and, generally, more data to work with. Alternatively, you can replace the scenarios with your own logic to account for the gap anomalies, if you are feeling up to the challenge.
It is also worth noting that the sample size will be limited to your Trading View subscription plan. Premium users get 20,000 candles worth of data, pro+ and pro users get 10,000, and basic users get 5,000. If upgrading is currently not an option, you can always keep a rolling tally of the statistics in an excel spreadsheet or something of the like.

Flat Market and Low ADX Indicator [CHE]Why use the Flat Market and Low ADX Indicator ?
Flat markets, where prices remain within a narrow range for an extended period, can be both critical and dangerous for traders. In a flat market, the price action becomes less predictable, and traders may struggle to find profitable trading opportunities. As a result, many traders may decide to take a break from the market until a clear trend emerges.
However, flat markets can also be dangerous for traders who continue to trade despite the lack of clear trends. In the absence of a clear direction, traders may be tempted to take larger risks or make impulsive trades in an attempt to capture small profits. Such behavior can quickly lead to significant losses, especially if the market suddenly breaks out of its flat range, causing traders to experience large drawdowns.
Therefore, it is essential to approach flat markets with caution and to have a clear trading plan that incorporates strategies for both trending and flat markets. Traders may also use technical indicators, such as the Flat Market and Low ADX Indicator, to help identify flat markets and determine when it is appropriate to enter or exit a position.
The confluence between flat markets and low ADX readings can further increase the risk of trading during these periods. The ADX (Average Directional Index) is a technical indicator used to measure the strength of a trend. A low ADX reading indicates that the market is in a consolidation phase, which can coincide with a flat market. When a flat market occurs during a period of low ADX, traders should be even more cautious, as there is little to no directional bias in the market. In this situation, traders may want to consider waiting for a clear trend to emerge or using range-bound trading strategies to avoid taking excessive risks.
Introduction:
Pine Script is a programming language used for developing custom technical analysis indicators and trading strategies in TradingView. This particular script is an indicator designed to identify flat markets and low ADX conditions. In this description, we will delve deeper into the functionality of this script and how it can be used to improve trading decisions.
Description:
The first input in the script is the length of the moving average used for calculating the center line. This moving average is used to define the high and low range of the market. The script then calculates the middle value of the range by taking the double exponential moving average (EMA) of the high, low, and close prices.
The script then determines whether the market is flat by comparing the middle value of the range with the high and low values. If the middle value is greater than the high value or less than the low value, the market is not flat. If the middle value is within the high and low range, the script considers the market to be flat. The script also uses RSI filter settings to further confirm if the market is flat or not. If the RSI value is between the RSI min and max values, then the market is considered flat. If the RSI value is outside this range, the market is not considered flat.
The script also calculates the ADX (Average Directional Index) to determine whether it's in a low area. ADX is a technical indicator used to measure the strength of a trend. The script uses the ADX filter settings to define the ADX threshold value. If the ADX value is below the threshold value, the script considers the market to be in a low ADX area.
The script provides various input options to customize the display settings, including the option to show the flat market and low ADX areas. Users can choose their preferred colors for the flat market and low ADX areas and adjust the transparency levels to suit their needs.
Conclusion:
In conclusion, this Pine Script indicator is designed to identify flat market and low ADX conditions, which can help traders make informed trading decisions. The script uses a range of inputs and calculations to determine the market direction, RSI filter, and ADX filter. By customizing the display settings, users can adjust the indicator to suit their preferences and improve their trading strategies. Overall, this script can be a valuable tool for traders looking to gain an edge in the markets.

Scalping The Bull IndicatorName: Scalping The Bull Indicator
Category: Scalping, Trend Following, Mean Reversion.
Timeframe: 1M, 5M, 30M, 1D depending on the specific technique.
Technical Analysis: The indicator supports the operations of the trader named "Scalping The Bull" which uses price action and exponential moving averages.
Suggested usage: Altcoin showing strong trends for scalping and intra-day trades. Trigger points are used as entry and exit points and to be used to understand when a signal has more power.
It is possible to identify the following conformations:
Shimano: look at the price records of a consecutive series of closings between the EMA 60 and the EMA 223 when a certain threshold is reached. Use the trigger points as price structures to identify entry and exit zones (e.g. breakout of the yesterday high as for entry point) .
Bomb: look at the price registers a percentage variation in a single candle, greater than a threshold such as 2%, in particular on shorter timeframes and around the trigger points.
Viagra: look at there is a consecutive series of closes below the EMA 10.
Downward fake: look when, after a cross under (Death Cross), the price returns above the EMA 223 using the yesterday high as a trigger point.
Emergence: look at the EMA 60 is about to cross over the EMA 223.
Anti-crossing: look at, after an important price rise and a subsequent retracement, the EMA 60 is about to cross under the EMA 223 but a bullish impulse brings the price back above the EMAs.
For Sales: look at two types of situations: 1) when the price falls by more than 10% from the opening price and around the yesterday’s low or 2) when the price falls and then reaches, in the last 5 days, a bigger percentage and then breaks a trigger point.
Colour change: look at the opening price of the session - indicated as a trigger point.
Third touch of EMA 60: look for 3 touches below the EMA 60, and enter when there is a close above the EMA 60.
Third touch of EMA 223: look for 3 touches when there are 3 touches below the EMA 223, and enter when there is a close above the EMA 60.
Bud: look at price when it crosses upwards the average 10 and subsequently at least 2 "rest" candles are between the maximum and minimum of the breaking candle.
Fake on EMA 10: look for the open of a candle higher than the EMA 10, the minimum of the candle lower and the closing price returns above the EMA 10..
For Stop Loss and Profit Targets consider a proper R/R depending on Risk Management, using price structures such as the low of the entering candle and a quick Position Management moving quickly the Stop-Loss at Break-Even.
Configuration:
Market
EMA: The indicator automatically configure itself on market it knows (Binance, Piazza Affari and NASDAQ) otherwise it can be configured manually fo Crypto market (5/10/60/223) or Stock Market (5/10/50/200).
Additional Average: You can display an additional average, e.g. 20-period average.
Chart elements:
Session Separators: indicates the beginning of the current session (in blue)
Background: signals with the background in green an uptrend situation ( 60 > 223) and in red background a downtrend situation (60 < 223).
Trigger points:
Today's highs and lows: draw on the chart the opening price of the daily candle and the highs and lows of the day (high in purple, low in red and open in green)
Yesterday's highs and lows: draw on the chart the opening price of the daily candle, the highs and lows of the previous day (high in yellow, low in red).

AG FX - Pivot PointsPivot Points High Low
Definition
The Pivot Points High Low indicator is used to determine and anticipate potential changes in market price and reversals. The Highs referred to in the title are created based on the number of bars that exhibit lower highs on either side of a Pivot Point High, whereas the Lows are created based on the number of bars that exhibit higher lows on either side of a Pivot Point Low.
Calculations
As mentioned above, Pivot Point Highs are calculated by the number of bars with lower highs on either side of a Pivot Point High calculation. Similarly, Pivot Point Lows are calculated by the number of bars with higher lows on either side of a Pivot Point Low calculation.
Takeaways and what to look for
A Pivot Point is more significant or noteworthy if the trend is extended or longer than average. This can mean if a trader selects a higher period for before and after the Pivot Point, the trend could be longer and therefore prove the Pivot Point itself more notable.
Additionally, Pivot Points can help a trader assess where would be best to draw. By analyzing price changes and reversals, a trader has more of an ability to determine and predict price patterns and general price trends.
Summary
The Pivot Points High Low indicator can predict and determine price changes and potential reversals in the market. Pivot Points can also help traders identify price patterns and trends, depending on the period and significance of the Pivot Point value.
Fibonacci-Trading-Indikator_3Daily (weekly, monthly) profits with the Fibonacci trading indicator_3
Quotes move in Fibonacci ratios in liquid markets. With this indicator you receive information for daily trades or for position trades based on a week or on a monthly basis, in which area you should ideally enter the market and where the minimum achievable price target is. This price target is 61.8% of yesterday's trading range, or the trading range of the previous week, or the trading range of the previous month, depending on the time frame for which the indicator should calculate the minimum achievable high / low. This is also where you realize your profit.
For this calculation, the following entries must be made in the properties window of the indicator:
• Preselection uptrend / downtrend.
• Time frame (day, week, ...) of the price bar for the possible high / low to be determined.
• Trading range of the previous day, or the previous week, or the previous month.
• Current lowest low of the selected time frame when trading has started and prices are rising.
• Current highest high of the selected time frame when trading has started and prices are falling.
Important areas for trading are:
• The entry range 0% - 23.6% for long or short.
• The target price level 61.8%.
Choose a suitable time frame to detect the direction of movement while the quotes are still moving in the entry area. The camelback indicator can be of great help. Also test the resolution setting of the camelback indicator. With a resolution of 1 hour in the 6 or 12 minute chart, you get a perspective for the broader direction. Movement patterns of corrections or consolidations, if they last more than a day or a week, also give clues to the coming direction of movement for the trade. So look back to see what happened yesterday, a week ago, or a month ago. Pay attention to the market anatomy, find out how the market works, count the price bars in consolidations and trends.
After entering the values the indicator will show the Fibonacci expansion price levels for the possible high or low for the selected time frame. Buy / sell within the entry range between 0% and 23.6% as the market moves towards the last long / or short entry point. This is the course range up to the 23.6% course level. The 61.8% price level is the minimum expected price target. We assume that the current bar will reach at least 61.8% of the trading range of the previous day, week or month. Depending on the set time frame. You should therefore realize the profits you have made with 50% of the position when the prices have reached the 61.8% level. With a suitable trailing stop you can be stopped with the rest of the position, but do not risk more than 50% of the profits.
With the quarter or year preselection and the corresponding entries, the minimum expected quarterly high / quarterly low or annual high / annual low can be determined.
The Fibonacci price levels can be shown and hidden. In the chart click on the gear wheel for “Chart Settings”. In the “Scaling” menu, the price levels can be displayed with the preselection “Label for indicator names” and “Label for last indicator value”. Slide the chart to the right to find possible support and resistance at the price levels that could provide confirmation of the target.
In the event of input errors or missing entries for a time frame, the indicator is hidden.
Pay attention to your trade management to avoid losses.
The new Fibonacci Trading Indicator_3 has the following additions and changes:
Area code for the quarter time frame has been added.
The entry area received a 23.6% and a 50% subdivision. Two envelope lines above the 23.6% entry level in the case of an upward trend and below the 23.6% entry level in the case of a downtrend, with a width of 23.6% and 14.6% of the entry level, are intended to indicate that the closing price is higher the quotations have broken out of the entry-level area.
A volatility stop for upward and downward trends can be activated.
A factor is added to the fluctuation range of each price bar for the stop. Then a moving average is calculated with an adjustable period. The period setting should be set between 5 and 10. The result can be smoothed adjustable.
Presetting:
Periods = 10
Factor = 1.4
Smoothing = 7
With the assumption that the market entry in an upward trend occurs when the prices break out above a bar high, the result of the stop calculation is subtracted from the bar high. In the case of a downward trend, the result of the stop calculation is added to the price bar low.
When entering the market, set the factor to 2.4. If inside bars follow a trend movement, the stop should be brought closer. Try the factor setting 0.4 or less. The smallest adjustable factor is 0.1.
For the entry into an established trend, as described in an idea contribution by me, there are two switchable moving averages. The application for the (MA_H) takes place on high and for the (MA_L) adjustable on high, low, shot, h + 1/2 etc. Period and offset (shift) are adjustable. With this idea, the entry into the market occurs between a 618% correction (the Fibonacci entry point) and the DEP (average entry point). The DEP in this case is the MA_H with period = 4 and an offset = 1 in the case of a downward trend, or the MA_L with the same setting and application to lows in an upward trend.
Also test the MA_L in trends with the settings (period, offset) 3.3 or 5, 3 or 7.5 and applying it to closing prices for a close encompassing of the highs / lows.

Dieses Kursziel liegt bei 61,8% der gestrigen Handelspanne, oder der Handelspanne der Vorwoche, oder der Handelspanne des Vormonats, also abhängig davon für welchen Zeitrahmen der Indikator das mindeste erreichbare Hoch/Tief berechnen soll. Dort realisieren Sie auch Ihren Gewinn.
Für diese Berechnung sind folgende Eingaben im Eigenschaftenfenster des Indikators einzustellen:
• Vorwahl Aufwärtstrend/ Abwärtstrend.
• Zeitrahmen (Tag, Woche, …) des Kursbalkens für das zu ermittelnde mögliche Hoch/ Tief.
• Handelspanne des vorherigen Tages, oder der vorherigen Woche, oder des vorherigen Monats.
• Aktuell tiefstes Tief des vorgewählten Zeitrahmens, wenn der Handel begonnen hat und die Notierungen steigen.
• Aktuell höchstes Hoch des vorgewählten Zeitrahmens, wenn der Handel begonnen hat und die Notierungen fallen.
Wichtige Bereiche für das Trading sind:
• Der Einstiegsbereich 0% - 23,6% für long oder short.
• Der Kursziellevel 61,8%.
Wählen Sie für die Erkennung der Bewegungsrichtung einen geeigneten Zeitrahmen, während sich die Notierungen noch im Einstiegsbereich bewegen. Der Camelback-Indikator kann eine gute Hilfe sein. Testen Sie auch die Auflösung-Einstellung des Camelback-Indikators. Mit der Auflösung 1 Stunde Im 6- oder 12 Minuten-Chart erhalten Sie einen Blickwinkel für die große Richtung. Auch Bewegungsmuster von Korrekturen oder Konsolidierungen, wenn sie mehr als einen Tag oder eine Woche andauern geben Hinweise auf die kommende Bewegungsrichtung für den Trade. Schauen Sie also zurück um zu prüfen, was sich gestern, vor einer Woche oder vor einem Monat abgespielt hat. Achten sie auf die Marktanatomie, finden Sie heraus wie der Markt funktioniert, zählen Sie Kursstäbe in Konsolidierungen und Trends.
Nach Eingabe der Werte zeigt der Indikator die Fibonacci-Ausweitungskurslevels für das mögliche Hoch oder Tief für den ausgewählten Zeitrahmen. Kaufen/ verkaufen Sie innerhalb des Einstiegsbereichs zwischen 0% und 23,6%, während sich der Markt in Richtung des letzten long-/ oder short-Einstiegspunktes bewegt. Das ist der Kursbereich bis zum 23,6%- Kurslevel. Der 61,8%-Kurslevel ist das mindeste erwartbare Kursziel. Wir gehen davon aus, dass der aktuelle Kursbalken mindestens 61,8% der Handelsspanne des vorherigen Tages, der vorherigen Woche oder des vorherigen Monats erreichen wird. Abhängig vom eingestellten Zeitrahmen. Realisieren Sie deshalb die angelaufenen Gewinne mit 50% der Position, wenn die Notierungen den 61,8% - Level erreicht haben. Mit einem geeigneten Trailing-Stopp lassen Sie sich mit der restlichen Position ausstoppen, riskieren Sie dafür aber nicht mehr als 50 % der angelaufenen Gewinne.
Mit der Vorwahl Quartal oder Jahr und den entsprechenden Eingaben kann auch das mindeste erwartbare Quartalshoch/ Quartalstief bzw. Jahreshoch/ Jahrestief ermittelt werden.
Die Fibonacci-Kurslevels lassen sich ein- und ausblenden. Klicken Sie im Chart auf das Zahnrad für „Chart Einstellungen“. Im Menü „Skalierungen“ kann mit der Vorwahl „Label für Indikatornahmen“ und „Label für letzten Indikatorwert“ die Kurslevels angezeigt werden. Schieben Sie den Chart nach rechts um mögliche Unterstützungen und Widerstände an den Kurslevels zu finden, die Bestätigung für das Ziel geben könnten.
Bei Eingabefehlern oder fehlenden Eingaben zu einem Zeitrahmen wird der Indikator ausgeblendet.
Achten Sie zur Vermeidung von Verlusten auf ihr Handelsmanagement.
Der neue Fibonacci-Trading-Indikator_3 besitz folgende Zusätze und Änderungen:
Vorwahl für den Zeitrahmen Quartal wurde hinzugefügt.
Der Einstiegsbereich erhielt eine 23,6% und eine 50% Unterteilung. Zwei Umschlagslinien über dem 23,6%-Einstiegslevel bei einem Aufwärtstrend, bzw. unter dem 23,6%-Einstiegslevel bei einem Abwärtstrend, mit der Breite 23,6% und 14,6% vom Einstiegsbereich, sollen bei höherem Schlusskurs signalisieren, dass die Notierungen aus dem Einstiegsbereich ausgebrochen sind.
Ein Volatilitätsstopp jeweils für Aufwärts- und Abwärtstrend kann zugeschaltet werden.
Für den Stopp wird die Schwankungsbreite jedes Kursbalkens wird mit einem Faktor beaufschlagt. Danach erfolgt die Berechnung eines gleitenden Durchschnitts mit einstellbarer Periode. Die Periodeneinstellung sollte zwischen 5 und 10 eingestellt werden. Das Ergebnis kann einstellbar geglättet werden.
Voreinstellung:
Perioden = 10
Faktor = 1,4
Glättung = 7
Mit der Annahme, dass der Markteinstieg in einem Aufwärtstrend bei Ausbruch der Notierungen über ein Kursbalkenhoch erfolgt, wird das Ergebnis der Stoppberechnung vom Kursbalkenhoch subtrahiert. Bei einem Abwärtstrend wird das Ergebnis der Stoppberechnung zum Kursbalkentief addiert.
Stellen Sie bei Markteintritt den Faktor auf 2,4. Folgen nach einer Trendbewegung Innenstäbe sollte der Stopp näher herangeführt werden. Probieren Sie die Faktoreinstellung 0,4 oder kleiner. Der kleinste einstellbare Faktor ist 0,1.
Für den Einstieg in einen etablierten Trend, wie in einem Ideenbeitrag von mir beschrieben, gibt es zwei zuschaltbare gleitende Durchschnitte. Die Anwendung für den (MA_H) erfolgt auf Hochs und für den (MA_L) einstellbar auf Hoch, Tief, Schuss, h+l/2 usw.. Periode und Offset (Verschiebung) sind einstellbar. Bei dieser Idee erfolgt der Einstieg in den Markt zwischen einer 618%-Korrektur (dem Fibonacci-Einstiegspunkt) und dem DEP (Durchschnittlicher Einstiegspunkt). Der DEP ist in diesem Fall der MA_H mit Periode = 4 und einem Offset = 1, bei einem Abwärtstrend, oder der MA_L mit identischer Einstellung und Anwendung auf Tiefs in einem Aufwärtstrend.
Testen Sie den MA_L auch in Trends mit den Einstellungen (Periode, Offset) 3,3 oder 5, 3 oder 7,5 und Anwendung auf Schlusskurse für eine enge Umfassung der Hochs/ Tiefs.
Non Parametric Adaptive Moving AverageIntroduction
Not be confused with non-parametric statistics, i define a "non-parametric" indicator as an indicator who does not have any parameter input. Such indicators can be useful since they don't need to go through parameter optimization. I present here a non parametric adaptive moving average based on exponential averaging using a modified ratio of open-close to high-low range indicator as smoothing variable.
The Indicator
The ratio of open-close to high-low range is a measurement involving calculating the ratio between the absolute close/open price difference and the range (high - low) , now the relationship between high/low and open/close price has been studied in econometrics for some time but there are no reason that the ohlc range ratio may be an indicator of volatility, however we can make the hypothesis that trending markets contain less indecision than ranging market and that indecision is measured by the high/low movements, this is an idea that i've heard various time.
Since the range is always greater than the absolute close/open difference we have a scaled smoothing variable in a range of 0/1, this allow to perform exponential averaging. The ratio of open-close to high-low range is calculated using the vwap of the close/high/low/open price in order to increase the smoothing effect. The vwap tend to smooth more with low time frames than higher ones, since the indicator use vwap for the calculation of its smoothing variable, smoothing may differ depending on the time frame you are in.
1 minute tf
1 hour tf
Conclusion
Making non parametric indicators is quite efficient, but they wont necessarily outperform classical parametric indicators. I also presented a modified version of the ratio of open-close to high-low range who can provide a smoothing variable for exponential averaging. I hope the indicator can help you in any way.

Volume Bubbles & Liquidity Heatmap 30% + biasLuxAlgo gave us an open script, I just primmed it up with the use of Chat GPT:There is no single magic number (like “delta must be 800”) that will guarantee directional follow-through in every market. But you can make a mathematically rigorous filter that gives you a high-probability test — by normalizing the delta against that market’s typical behavior and requiring multiple confirmations. Below is a compact, actionable algorithm you can implement immediately (in your platform or spreadsheet) plus concrete thresholds and the math behind them.
High-IQ rule set (math + trade logic)
Use three independent checks. Only take the trade if ALL three pass.
1) Z-score (statistical significance of the delta)
Compute rolling mean
𝜇
μ and std dev
𝜎
σ of delta on the same timeframe (e.g. 5m) over a lookback window
𝑊
W (suggest
𝑊

W

−μ
W
Threshold: require
𝑍
≥
2.5
Z≥2.5 (strong) — accept 2.0 for less strict, 3.0 for very rare signals.
Why: a Z>=2.5 means this delta is an outlier (~<1% one-sided), not normal noise.
2) Relative Imbalance (strength vs total volume)
Compute imbalance ratio:
𝑅
=
∣
delta
bar
∣
volume
bar
R=
volume
bar
∣delta
bar
∣
Threshold: require
𝑅
≥
0.25
R≥0.25 (25% of the bar’s volume is one-sided). For scalping you can tighten to 0.30–0.40.
Why: a big delta with tiny volume isn’t meaningful; this normalizes to participation.
3) Net follow-through over a confirmation window
Look ahead

∣

bar
∣
∣cum_delta
N
∣≥0.5×∣delta

∣, and
price_move
price_move exceeds a minimum meaningful tick amount (instrument dependent). For ES / US30 type futures: price move ≥ 5–10 ticks; for forex pairs maybe 10–20 pips? Use ATR
20
20
×0.05 as a generic minimum.
Why: separates immediate absorption (buy delta then sellers soak it) from genuine continuation.
Bonus check — Structural context (must be satisfied)
Trigger should not occur against a strong structural barrier (VWAP, daily high/low, previous session POC) unless you’re explicitly trading exhaustion/absorption setups.
If signal occurs near resistance and price does not clear that resistance within
𝑁
N bars, treat as probable trap.
Putting it together — final trade decision
Take the long (example):
If
𝑍
≥
2.5
Z≥2.5 and
𝑅
≥
0.25
R≥0.25 and cum_delta_N confirms and no hard resistance above (or you’re willing to trade absorption), then enter.
Place stop: under the low of the last 2–3 bars or X ATR (instrument dependent).
Initial target: risk:reward 1:1 minimum, scale out at 1.5–2R after confirming further delta.
Concrete numeric illustration using your numbers
You saw FOL = 456, then sell reaction with ~350 opposite. How to interpret:
Suppose your 5-min rolling mean
𝜇
μ = 100 and
𝜎
σ=120 (example):
𝑍
=
(
456
−
100
)
/
120
≈
2.97
⇒
statistically big
Z=(456−100)/120≈2.97⇒statistically big
So it passes Z.
If volume on that bar = 2000 contracts:
𝑅
=
456
/
2000
=
0.228
⇒
just below 0.25 threshold
R=456/2000=0.228⇒just below 0.25 threshold
So it fails R (weak participation proportionally), explaining why 456 alone didn’t move price.
Seller came back with 350 opposite soon after — check cum_delta_N:
cum_delta
𝑛
𝑒
𝑥
𝑡
3
≈
456
−
350
=
106
net
cum_delta
next3
≈456−350=106 net
Net is small relative to the initial spike — not convincing follow-through.
Conclusion: despite a big absolute number (456), relative measures and lack of follow-through meant the move failed. That’s exactly why raw numbers alone are unreliable.
Advanced refinement (for elite performance)
Use rolling median + MAD instead of mean/std if delta distribution is skewed.
Scale Z by volume volatility: divide Z by
volume
bar
/
volume
‾
volume
bar
/
volume
to penalize low-volume bars.
Use a signed cumulative delta over micro-windows: compute windowed cumulative delta standardized:

cum

Add market-depth / DOM confirmation (if available): require that resting ask size above is less than resting bid size below by a factor (i.e. visible liquidity supports the move).
Practical thresholds to start with (tune per instrument)
Lookback
𝑊
W: 100 bars (5m → about a trading day)
Z threshold: 2.5
Imbalance ratio
𝑅
R: ≥ 0.25 (tighten to 0.30 for scalping)
Confirmation window
𝑁
N: next 1–3 bars for intraday scalps; 3–6 bars for short swings
Cum delta confirmation: ≥ 0.5 × initial delta and same sign
Price move confirmation: ≥ 0.03 × ATR20 (or set absolute ticks per instrument)
TL;DR — the single best rule
Don’t chase absolute numbers. Use Z-score of delta + delta/volume ratio + real follow-through. If all three align, odds are heavily in your favor.
If you want, I can:
give you a tiny script (pseudocode or Pine / Python) that computes Z, R, cum_delta_N and flags qualifying bars, or
run the calculation on a sample of your recent bars if you paste a small CSV of time, delta, volume, close.
Which do you want? (I’ll give code right away.)
You said:
give me a percentage of difference where we have a high probability
ChatGPT said:
Thought for 7s
Nice — straight to the point. Here’s a concise, practical set of percentage thresholds (and associated confidence estimates) you can use right now to flag a “high probability” delta signal. I’ll give you three tiers (good / strong / elite), explain what each means, show how to compute it, and give a short example using your 456/2000 bar.
One-line rule
Compute delta percent
𝑃
=
∣
delta
∣
volume
×
100
%
P=
volume
∣delta∣
×100%.
Then require Z-score of delta ≥ 2.5 and P to be at or above the threshold below for the desired confidence tier.
Threshold tiers (percent of bar volume)
Good (high-probability trade candidate)
P ≥ 20–25%
Typical success probability (when combined with Z≥2.5 and no hard structural resistance): ~60–70%.
Use when you want a steady flow of signals with decent edge.
Strong (high confidence)
P ≥ 30–35%
Typical success probability: ~70–80% (with Z≥2.5 + structural alignment).
Fewer signals, higher win-rate. Good default for intraday.
Elite (very high probability / low false positives)
P ≥ 40–50%
Typical success probability: ~80–90% (with Z≥3 and confirmation).
Rare signals. Use for meaningful size or when you need maximum certainty.
Why percentage matters (short)
Absolute delta (456) is meaningless without volume context. A 456 delta on 2,000 volume → P = 456/2000 = 22.8% → sits just below the Good threshold, which matches why it failed: decent but not dominant participation.
Additional required checks (don’t skip these)
To turn P into a reliable filter, always require:
Z-score of the delta ≥ 2.5 (or ≥3 for Elite signals).
No immediate structural barrier (VWAP, strong resistance) that would plausibly absorb the order.
Follow-through: within next N bars (N = 1–3 for scalps) price moves in the same direction by ≥ 0.03×ATR20 (or instrument-specific tick threshold). If this fails, cut fast.
Combine all three and your realized win-rate will approach the probabilities above.
Practical quick checklist (to apply each signal)
Compute P = |delta|/volume. Is P ≥ 30%? (or your chosen tier)
Compute Z = (delta − mean)/std over last 100 bars. Is Z ≥ 2.5?
Is price not pinned under a heavy resistance?
Enter on next bar close (or intrabar on continuation), stop under last 2-bar low (for longs).
If price fails to move ≥ 0.03×ATR20 within 3 bars, exit.
Example (your bar)
delta = 456, volume = 2000 → P = 22.8% → below Good threshold (25%).
Even if Z was high, P failed — explains the failure. You need P ≥ ~30% plus Z≥2.5 to call it a Strong signal.
Final notes (instrument & timeframe)
These percentages were calibrated for futures/US indices and short intraday bars (1–5m).
For FX or low-tick instruments, use absolute ticks + a smaller P threshold (start at 15–20%).
Always backtest on the specific instrument/timeframe and tune thresholds.
If you want, I’ll generate a tiny script (Python or Pine) that calculates P and Z and flags Good/Strong/Elite signals for your chart history so you can see exact historical hit rates. Which language (Python or Pine)?
You said:
so if we have 456 g vs 350 r what pct is that in favour of green?
ChatGPT said:
Perfect — let’s calculate it carefully, digit by digit so we don’t make a slip.
We have:
Green (buy) volume = 456
Red (sell) volume = 350
We want to know what percentage is in favor of green, relative to the total volume.
Step 1. Compute total volume
Total
=
456
+
350
=
806
Total=456+350=806
Step 2. Compute green’s share
\text{Green %} = \frac{456}{806} \times 100
Now do it precisely:
456
÷
806
=
0.565506
456÷806=0.565506 (rounded)
So:
0.565506
×
100
=
56.55
%
0.565506×100=56.55%
Step 3. Compute red’s share (for context)
350
806
=
0.434494
→
43.45
%
806
350
=0.434494→43.45%
Step 4. Compute difference (bias toward green)
56.55
%
−
43.45
%
=
13.10
%
56.55%−43.45%=13.10%
✅ Final answer:
Green = 56.6% of total
Red = 43.4% of total
Bias = +13.1 percentage points in favor of green
So that’s only a 13% advantage to buyers — modest pressure, not a dominant imbalance.
For a high-probability signal (as we discussed earlier), you generally want ≥30% imbalance (e.g. ~65/35 split or stronger).

Opening Range IndicatorComplete Trading Guide: Opening Range Breakout Strategy
What Are Opening Ranges?
Opening ranges capture the high and low prices during the first few minutes of market open. These levels often act as key support and resistance throughout the trading day because:
Heavy volume occurs at market open as overnight orders execute
Institutional activity is concentrated during opening minutes
Price discovery happens as market participants react to overnight news
Psychological levels are established that traders watch all day
Understanding the Three Timeframes
OR5 (5-Minute Range: 9:30-9:35 AM)
Most sensitive - captures immediate market reaction
Quick signals but higher false breakout rate
Best for scalping and momentum trading
Use for early entry when conviction is high
OR15 (15-Minute Range: 9:30-9:45 AM)
Balanced approach - most popular among day traders
Moderate sensitivity with better reliability
Good for swing trades lasting several hours
Primary timeframe for most strategies
OR30 (30-Minute Range: 9:30-10:00 AM)
Most reliable but slower signals
Lower false breakout rate
Best for position trades and trend following
Use when looking for major moves
Core Trading Strategies
Strategy 1: Basic Breakout
Setup:
Wait for price to break above OR15 high or below OR15 low
Enter on the breakout candle close
Stop loss: Opposite side of the range
Target: 2-3x the range size
Example:
OR15 range: $100.00 - $102.00 (Range = $2.00)
Long entry: Break above $102.00
Stop loss: $99.50 (below OR15 low)
Target: $104.00+ (2x range size)
Strategy 2: Multiple Confirmation
Setup:
Wait for OR5 break first (early signal)
Confirm with OR15 break in same direction
Enter on OR15 confirmation
Stop: Below OR30 if available, or OR15 opposite level
Why it works:
Multiple timeframe confirmation reduces false signals and increases probability of sustained moves.
Strategy 3: Failed Breakout Reversal
Setup:
Price breaks OR15 level but fails to hold
Wait for re-entry into the range
Enter reversal trade toward opposite OR level
Stop: Recent breakout high/low
Target: Opposite side of range + extension
Key insight: Failed breakouts often lead to strong moves in the opposite direction.
Advanced Techniques
Range Quality Assessment
High-Quality Ranges (Trade these):
Range size: 0.5% - 2% of stock price
Clean boundaries (not choppy)
Volume spike during range formation
Clear rejection at range levels
Low-Quality Ranges (Avoid these):
Very narrow ranges (<0.3% of stock price)
Extremely wide ranges (>3% of stock price)
Choppy, overlapping candles
Low volume during formation
Volume Confirmation
For Breakouts:
Look for volume spike (2x+ average) on breakout
Declining volume often signals false breakout
Rising volume during range formation shows interest
Market Context Filters
Best Conditions:
Trending market days (SPY/QQQ with clear direction)
Earnings reactions or news-driven moves
High-volume stocks with good liquidity
Volatility above average (VIX considerations)
Avoid Trading When:
Extremely low volume days
Major economic announcements pending
Holidays or half-days
Choppy, sideways market conditions
Risk Management Rules

Trend Bars with Okuninushi Line Filter# Trend Bars with Okuninushi Line Filter: A Powerful Trading Indicator
## Introduction
The **Trend Bars with Okuninushi Line Filter** is an innovative technical indicator that combines two powerful concepts: trend bar analysis and the Okuninushi Line filter. This indicator helps traders identify high-quality trending moves by analyzing candle body strength relative to the overall price range while ensuring the price action aligns with the dominant market structure.
## What Are Trend Bars?
Trend bars are candles where the body (distance between open and close) represents a significant portion of the total price range (high to low). These bars indicate strong directional momentum with minimal indecision, making them valuable signals for trend continuation.
### Key Characteristics:
- **Strong directional movement**: Large body relative to total range
- **Minimal upper/lower shadows**: Shows sustained pressure in one direction
- **High conviction**: Represents decisive market action
## The Okuninushi Line Filter
The Okuninushi Line, also known as the Kijun Line in Ichimoku analysis, is calculated as the midpoint of the highest high and lowest low over a specified period (default: 52 periods).
**Formula**: `(Highest High + Lowest Low) / 2`
This line acts as a dynamic support/resistance level and trend filter, helping to:
- Identify the overall market bias
- Filter out counter-trend signals
- Provide confluence for trade entries
## How the Indicator Works
The indicator combines these two concepts with the following logic:
### Bull Trend Bars (Green)
A candle is colored **green** when ALL conditions are met:
1. **Bullish candle**: Close > Open
2. **Strong body**: |Close - Open| ≥ Threshold × (High - Low)
3. **Above trend filter**: Close > Okuninushi Line
### Bear Trend Bars (Red)
A candle is colored **red** when ALL conditions are met:
1. **Bearish candle**: Close < Open
2. **Strong body**: |Close - Open| ≥ Threshold × (High - Low)
3. **Below trend filter**: Close < Okuninushi Line
### Neutral Bars (Gray)
All other candles that don't meet the complete criteria are colored **gray**.
## Customizable Parameters
### Trend Bar Threshold
- **Range**: 10% to 100%
- **Default**: 75%
- **Purpose**: Controls how "strong" a candle must be to qualify as a trend bar
**Threshold Effects:**
- **Low (10-30%)**: More sensitive, catches smaller trending moves
- **Medium (50-75%)**: Balanced approach, filters out most noise
- **High (80-100%)**: Very selective, only captures the strongest moves
### Okuninushi Line Length
- **Default**: 52 periods
- **Purpose**: Determines the lookback period for calculating the midpoint
- **Common Settings**:
- 26 periods: More responsive to recent price action
- 52 periods: Standard setting, good balance
- 104 periods: Longer-term trend perspective
## Trading Applications
### 1. Trend Continuation Signals
- **Green bars**: Look for bullish continuation opportunities
- **Red bars**: Consider bearish continuation setups
- **Gray bars**: Exercise caution, mixed signals
### 2. Market Structure Analysis
- Clusters of same-colored bars indicate strong trends
- Alternating colors suggest choppy, indecisive markets
- Transition from red to green (or vice versa) may signal trend changes
### 3. Entry Timing
- Use colored bars as confirmation for existing trade setups
- Wait for color alignment with your market bias
- Avoid trading during predominantly gray periods
### 4. Risk Management
- Gray bars can serve as early warning signs of weakening trends
- Color changes might indicate appropriate exit points
- Use in conjunction with other risk management tools
## Advantages
1. **Dual Filtering**: Combines momentum (trend bars) with trend direction (Okuninushi Line)
2. **Visual Clarity**: Immediate visual feedback through candle coloring
3. **Customizable**: Adjustable parameters for different trading styles
4. **Versatile**: Works across multiple timeframes and instruments
5. **Objective**: Rule-based system reduces subjective interpretation
## Limitations
1. **Lagging Nature**: Based on historical price data
2. **False Signals**: Can produce whipsaws in choppy markets
3. **Parameter Sensitivity**: Requires optimization for different instruments
4. **Market Conditions**: May be less effective in ranging markets
## Best Practices
### Optimization Tips:
- **Volatile Markets**: Use higher thresholds (80-90%)
- **Steady Trends**: Use moderate thresholds (60-75%)
- **Short-term Trading**: Shorter Okuninushi Line periods (26)
- **Long-term Analysis**: Longer Okuninushi Line periods (104+)
### Combination Strategies:
- Pair with volume indicators for confirmation
- Use alongside support/resistance levels
- Combine with other trend-following indicators
- Consider market context and overall trend direction
## Conclusion
The Trend Bars with Okuninushi Line Filter offers traders a sophisticated yet intuitive way to identify high-quality trending moves. By combining the momentum characteristics of trend bars with the directional filter of the Okuninushi Line, this indicator helps traders focus on the most promising opportunities while avoiding low-probability setups.
Remember that no single indicator should be used in isolation. Always consider market context, risk management, and other technical factors when making trading decisions. The true power of this indicator lies in its ability to quickly highlight periods of strong, aligned price action – exactly what trend traders are looking for.

Trend FriendTrend Friend — What it is and how to use it
I built Trend Friend to stop redrawing the same trendlines all day. It automatically connects confirmed swing points (fractals) and keeps the most relevant lines in front of you. The goal: give you clean, actionable structure without the guesswork.
What it does (in plain English)
Finds swing highs/lows using a Fractal Period you choose.
Draws auto-trendlines between the two most recent confirmed highs and the two most recent confirmed lows.
Colours by intent:
Lines drawn from highs (potential resistance / bearish) = Red
Lines drawn from lows (potential support / bullish) = Green
Keeps the chart tidy: The newest lines are styled as “recent,” older lines are dimmed as “historical,” and it prunes anything beyond your chosen limit.
Optional crosses & alerts: You can highlight when price closes across the most recent line and set alerts for new lines formed and upper/lower line crosses.
Structure labels: It tags HH, LH, HL, LL at the swing points, so you can quickly read trend/rotation.
How it works (under the hood)
A “fractal” here is a confirmed pivot: the highest high (or lowest low) with n bars on each side. That means pivots only confirm after n bars, so signals are cleaner and less noisy.
When a new pivot prints, the script connects it to the prior pivot of the same type (high→high, low→low). That gives you one “bearish” line from highs and one “bullish” line from lows.
The newest line is marked as recent (brighter), and the previous recent line becomes historical (dimmed). You can keep as many pairs as you want, but I usually keep it tight.
Inputs you’ll actually use
Fractal Period (n): this is the big one. It controls how swingy/strict the pivots are.
Lower n → more swings, more lines (faster, noisier)
Higher n → fewer swings, cleaner lines (slower, swing-trade friendly)
Max pair of lines: how many pairs (up+down) to keep on the chart. 1–3 is a sweet spot.
Extend: extend lines Right (my default) or Both ways if you like the context.
Line widths & colours: recent vs. historical are separate so you can make the active lines pop.
Show crosses: toggle the X markers when price crosses a line. I turn this on when I’m actively hunting breakouts/retests.
Reading the chart
Red lines (from highs): I treat these as potential resistance. A clean break + hold above a red line often flips me from “fade” to “follow.”
Green lines (from lows): Potential support. Same idea in reverse: break + hold below and I stop buying dips until I see structure reclaim.
HH / LH / HL / LL dots: quick read on structure.
HH/HL bias = uptrend continuation potential
LH/LL bias = downtrend continuation potential
Mixed prints = rotation/chop—tighten risk or wait for clarity.
My H1 guidance (fine-tuning Fractal Period)
If you’re mainly on H1 (my use case), tune like this:
Fast / aggressive: n = 6–8 (lots of signals, good for momentum days; more chop risk)
Balanced (recommended): n = 9–12 (keeps lines meaningful but responsive)
Slow / swing focus: n = 13–21 (filters noise; better for trend days and higher-TF confluence)
Rule of thumb: if you’re getting too many touches and whipsaws, increase n. If you’re late to obvious breaks, decrease n.
How I trade it (example workflow)
Pick your n for the session (H1: start at 9–12).
Mark the recent red & green lines. That’s your immediate structure.
Look for interaction:
Rejections from a line = fade potential back into the range.
Break + close across a line = watch the retest for continuation.
Confirm with context: session bias, HTF structure, and your own tools (VWAP, RSI, volume, FVG/OB, etc.).
Plan the trade: enter on retest or reclaim, stop beyond the line/last swing, target the opposite side or next structure.
Alerts (set and forget)
“New trendline formed” — fires when a new high/low pivot confirms and a fresh line is drawn.
“Upper/lower trendline crossed” — fires when price crosses the most recent red/green line.
Use these to track structure shifts without staring at the screen.
Good to know (honest limitations)
Confirmation lag: pivots need n bars on both sides, so signals arrive after the swing confirms. That’s by design—less noise, fewer fake lines.
Lines update as structure evolves: when a new pivot forms, the previous “recent” line becomes “historical,” and older ones can be removed based on your max setting.
Not an auto trendline crystal ball: it won’t predict which line holds or breaks—it just keeps the most relevant structure clean and up to date.
Final notes
Works on any timeframe; I built it with H1 in mind and scale to H4/D1 by increasing n.
Pairs nicely with session tools and VWAP for intraday, or with supply/demand / FVGs for swing planning.
Risk first: lines are structure, not guarantees. Manage position size and stops as usual.
Not financial advice. Trade your plan. Stay nimble.
4-Hour Range HighlighterThe 4-Hour Range Highlighter is a powerful visual analysis tool designed for traders operating on lower timeframes (like 5m, 15m, or 1H). It overlays the critical price range of the 4-hour (4H) candlestick onto your chart, providing immediate context from a higher timeframe. This helps you align your intraday trades with the dominant higher-timeframe structure, identifying key support and resistance zones, breakouts, and market volatility at a glance.
Key Features:
Visual Range Overlay: Draws a semi-transparent colored background spanning the entire High and Low of each 4-hour period.
Trend-Based Coloring: Automatically colors the range based on the 4H candle's direction:
Green: Bullish 4H candle (Close > Open)
Red: Bearish 4H candle (Close < Open)
Blue: Neutral 4H candle (Close = Open)
Customizable High/Low Lines: Optional, subtle lines plot the exact high and low of the 4H bar, acting as dynamic support/resistance levels.
Fully Customizable: Easily change colors and toggle visual elements on/off in the settings to match your chart's theme.
How to Use It:
Identify Key Levels: The top and bottom of the shaded area represent significant intraday support and resistance. Watch for price reactions at these levels.
Trade in Context: Use the trend color to gauge sentiment. For example, look for buy opportunities near the low of a bullish (green) 4H range.
Spot Breakouts: A strong candle closing above the high or below the low of the current 4H range can signal a continuation or the start of a new strong move.
Gauge Volatility: A large shaded area indicates a high-volatility 4H period. A small area suggests consolidation or low volatility.
Settings:
Visual Settings: Toggle the background and choose colors for Bullish, Bearish, and Neutral ranges.
Line Settings: Toggle the high/low lines and customize their colors.
Note: This is a visual aid, not a standalone trading system. It provides context but does not generate buy/sell signals. Always use it in conjunction with your own analysis and risk management.
Perfect for Day Traders, Swing Traders, and anyone who needs higher-timeframe context on their chart!
How to Use / Instructions:
After adding the script to your chart, open the settings menu (click on the indicator's name and then the gear icon).
In the "Inputs" tab, you will find two groups: "Visual Settings" and "Line Settings".
In Visual Settings, you can:
Toggle Show 4H Range Background on/off.
Change the Bullish Color, Bearish Color, and Neutral Color for the transparent background.
In Line Settings, you can:
Toggle Show High/Low Lines on/off.
Change the line colors for each trend type.
Adjust the colors to your preference. The default settings use transparency for a clean look that doesn't clutter the chart.

Ai Golden Support and Resistance Adaptive Support & Resistance (ADR-scaled ABCD + Breakout/Retest Zones)
What it does
This indicator detects actionable support/resistance zones from swing structure and breakout events, then keeps each zone active until it’s invalidated by price. It adapts zone sensitivity using Average Daily Range (ADR) so the same rules scale across symbols and vol regimes.
Core Logic (high level)
Swing & ABCD pattern seed
Detects alternating pivots (high–low–high–low or low–high–low–high) using a user-selected lookback.
Validates basic AB–BC–CD proportions: BC must retrace a portion of AB; CD must extend BC within a set range.
From a valid sequence, sets a candidate level (top for bearish, bottom for bullish).
Breakout confirmation
A level becomes confirmed when price closes beyond it (crossover/crossunder).
On confirmation, the script draws a dotted reference line and records how many bars elapsed from the seed pivot to breakout. That count defines the lookback window used for local extremes.
Zone construction
Supply (bearish): builds a box around the most recent local range near the bearish seed;
Demand (bullish): builds a box around the most recent local range near the bullish seed.
Each zone’s height is derived from nearby extremes and the seed swing, so boxes reflect local structure rather than fixed pip widths.
Volatility normalization (ADR%)
ADR is computed from daily candles.
The Risk Profile input (“High/Medium/Low”) scales required move sizes using ADR%, and adjusts pivot sensitivity (fewer/more bars).
Higher risk → more sensitive (smaller ADR %, tighter pivot lookback).
Lower risk → stricter filters (larger ADR %, wider pivot lookback).
Explosive-move filter (streak logic)
Searches the seeded lookback for consecutive same-color candles (config via the risk profile).
Requires the cumulative % move of that streak to exceed an ADR-scaled threshold.
When found, the zone is tagged as originating from an “explosive” move (potentially higher reaction probability).
Zone persistence & invalidation
Zones persist and auto-extend to the right until invalidated.
Invalidation occurs when price closes through a rule-based threshold derived from the seed structure (stored per zone).
Once invalidated, the zone is marked inactive and stops updating.
Inputs & Controls
Risk Profile: High / Medium / Low (sets pivot lookback, streak length, and ADR% thresholds).
Labels & Visuals: Toggle labels and level lines; set line width.
Colors/Boxes: Supply (red), Demand (green); dotted breakout references.
No broker/session settings are required; the script adapts per symbol via ADR.
On-Chart Elements
Dotted breakout lines at confirmed levels (with measured bars-to-breakout).
Supply/Demand boxes that extend until invalidation.
Optional labels for clarity; minimal clutter by default.
How to Use
Context: Use higher-TF context for bias; apply zones on your trading TF.
Confluence: Combine zones with your own triggers (structure breaks, rejection wicks, momentum shifts).
Invalidation: If price closes beyond a zone’s invalidation threshold, treat that zone as inactive.
Sensitivity: If too many zones appear, switch to Medium/Low Risk (stricter ADR% & pivots); if too few, use High Risk.
Notes & Limitations
Logic is rule-based; there is no machine learning.
Daily ADR is computed from D timeframe, so intraday charts inherit daily volatility context.
Results vary by symbol and timeframe; validate settings per market.
This is an indicator (no orders or P/L).
Session Seed Range (LON / FRA / NY / CME / ASIA + 3 Custom) — v6Session Seed Range → Lines (LON / FRA / NY / CME / ASIA + 3 Custom)
What it does
This tool draws two horizontal levels—the High and Low of a short seed window at each market open (e.g., London 09:00–09:05)—and extends them to the session close (e.g., 17:30). An optional Mid line (average of seed High/Low) can be displayed as well.
Included sessions
• London, Frankfurt, New York, CME, Asia
• Plus 3 fully custom sessions (name, seed window, session end)
Key features
• Seed window → extended lines: Capture the initial opening move and project it across the trading session.
• Timezone dropdown: Choose from common IANA timezones (incl. Europe/Istanbul)—no manual offset math.
• Label language: DE / EN / TR (or Off) for price labels at the right edge.
• Show/Hide Mid line per your preference.
• 3 custom sessions: Add your own schedules with custom names.
• Per-session styling: Colors and widths for High/Low/Mid.

Fibo Swing MFI by julzALGOOVERVIEW
Fibo Swing MFI by julzALGO blends MFI → RSI → Least-Squares smoothing to flag overbought/oversold swings and continuously plot Fibonacci retracements from the rolling high/low of the last 200 bars. It’s built to spot momentum shifts while giving you a clean, always-current fib map of the recent market range.
CORE PRINCIPLES
Hybrid Momentum Signal
- Uses MFI to integrate price and volume.
- Applies RSI to MFI for momentum clarity.
- Smooths the result with Least Squares regression to reduce noise.
Swing Identification
- Marks potential swing highs when momentum is overbought.
- Marks potential swing lows when momentum is oversold.
Fixed-Window Fibonacci Mapping
- Always calculates fib levels from the highest high and lowest low of the last 200 bars.
- This keeps fib zones consistent, independent of swing point detection.
Visual Clarity & Non-Repainting Logic
- Clean labels for OB/OS zones.
- Lines and levels update only as new bars confirm changes.
Adaptability
- Works on any market and timeframe.
- Adjustable momentum length, OB/OS thresholds, and smoothing.
HOW IT WORKS
- Computes Money Flow Index (MFI) from price & volume.
- Applies RSI to the MFI for clearer OB/OS momentum.
- Smooths the hybrid with a Least Squares (linear regression) filter.
- Swing labels appear when OB/OS conditions are met (green = swing low, red = swing high).
- Fibonacci retracements are always drawn from the highest high and lowest low of the last 200 bars (rolling window), independent of swing labels.
HOW TO USE
- Watch for OB/OS flips to mark potential swing highs/lows.
- Use the 200-bar fib grid as your active map of pullback levels and reaction zones.
- Combine fib reactions with your price action/volume cues for confirmation.
- Works across markets and timeframes.
SETTINGS
- Length – Period for both MFI and RSI.
- OB/OS Levels – Overbought/oversold thresholds (default 70/30).
- Smooth – Least-Squares smoothing length.
- Fibonacci Window – Fixed at 200 bars in this version (changeable in code via fibLen).
NOTES
- Logic is non-repainting aside from standard bar/label confirmation.
- Increase Length on very low timeframes to reduce noise.
- Swing labels help context; fibs are always based on the most recent 200-bar high/low range.
SUMMARY
Fibo Swing MFI by julzALGO is a momentum-plus-price action tool that merges MFI → RSI → smoothing to identify overbought/oversold swings and automatically plot Fibonacci retracements based on the rolling high/low of the last 200 bars. It’s designed to help traders quickly see potential reversal points and pullback zones, offering visual confluence between momentum shifts and fixed-window price structure.

Key Indicators Dashboard (KID)Key Indicators Dashboard (KID) — Comprehensive Market & Trend Metrics
📌 Overview
The Key Indicators Dashboard (KID) is an advanced multi-metric market analysis tool designed to consolidate essential technical, volatility, and relative performance data into a single on-chart table. Instead of switching between multiple indicators, KID centralizes these key measures, making it easier to assess a stock’s technical health, volatility state, trend status, and relative strength at a glance.
🛠 Key Features
⦿ Average Daily Range (ADR %): Measures average daily price movement over a specified period. It is calculated by averaging the daily price range (high - low) over a set number of days (default 20 days).
⦿ Average True Range (ATR): Measures volatility by calculating the average of a true range over a specific period (default 14). It helps traders gauge the typical extent of price movement, regardless of the direction.
⦿ ATR%: Expresses the Average True Range as a percentage of the price, which allows traders to compare the volatility of stocks with different prices.
⦿ Relative Strength (RS): Compares a stock’s performance to a chosen benchmark index (default NIFTYMIDSML400) over a specific period (default 50 days).
⦿ RS Score (IBD-style): A normalized 1–100 rating inspired by Investor’s Business Daily methodology.
How it works: The RS Score is based on a weighted average of price changes over 3 months (40%), 6 months (20%), 9 months (20%), and 12 months (20%).
The raw value is converted into a percentage return, then normalized over the past 252 trading days so the lowest value maps to 1 and the highest to 100.
This produces a percentile-style score that highlights the strongest stocks in relative terms.
⦿ Relative Volume (RVol): Compares a stock's current volume to its average volume over a specific period (default 50). It is calculated by dividing the current volume by the average historical volume.
⦿ Average ₹ Volume (Turnover): Represents the total monetary value of shares traded for a stock. It's calculated by multiplying a day's closing price by its volume, with the final value converted to crores for clarity. This metric is a key indicator of a stock's liquidity and overall market interest.
⦿ Moving Average Extension: Measures how far a stock's current price has moved from from a selected moving average (EMA or SMA). This deviation is normalized by the stock's volatility (ATR%), with a default threshold of 6 ATR used to indicate that the stock is significantly extended and is marked with a selected shape (default Red Flag).
⦿ 52-Weeks High & Low: Measures a stock's current price in relation to its highest and lowest prices over the past year. It calculates the percentage a stock is below its 52-week high and above its 52-week low.
⦿ Market Capitalization: Market Cap represents the total value of all outstanding.
⦿ Free Float: It is the value of shares readily available for public trading, with the Free Float Percentage showing the proportion of shares available to the public.
⦿ Trend: Uses Supertrend indicator to identify the current trend of a stock's price. A factor (default 3) and an ATR period (default 10) is used to signal whether the trend is up or down.
⦿ Minervini Trend Template (MTT): It is a set of technical criteria designed to identify stocks in strong uptrends.
Price > 50-DMA > 150-DMA > 200-DMA
200-DMA is trending up for at least 1 month
Price is at least 30% above its 52-week low.
Price is within at least 25 percent of its 52-week high
Table highlights when a stock meets all above criteria.
⦿ Sector & Industry: Display stock's sector and industry, provides categorical classification to assist sector-based analysis. The sector is a broad economic classification, while the industry is a more specific group within that sector.
⦿ Moving Averages (MAs): Plot up to four customizable Moving Averages on a chart. You can independently set the type (Simple or Exponential), the source price, and the length for each MA to help visualize a stock's underlying trend.
MA1: Default 10-EMA
MA2: Default 20-EMA
MA3: Default 50-EMA
MA4: Default 200-EMA
⦿ Moving Average (MA) Crossover: It is a trend signal that occurs when a shorter-term moving average crosses a longer-term one. This script identifies these crossover events and plots a marker on the chart to visually signal a potential change in trend direction.
User-configurable MAs (short and long).
A bullish crossover occurs when the short MA crosses above the long MA.
A bearish crossover occurs when the short MA crosses below the long MA.
⦿ Inside Bar (IB): An Inside Bar is a candlestick whose entire price range is contained within the range of the previous bar. This script identifies this pattern, which often signals consolidation, and visually marks bullish and bearish inside bars on the chart with distinct colors and labels.
⦿ Tightness: Identifies periods of low volatility and price consolidation. It compares the price range over a short lookback period (default 3) to the average daily range (ADR). When the lookback range is smaller than the ADR, the indicator plots a marker on the chart to signal consolidation.
⦿ PowerBar (Purple Dot): Identifies candles with a strong price move on high volume. By default, it plots a purple dot when a stock moves up or down by at least 5% and has a minimum volume of 500,000. More dots indicate higher volatility and liquidity.
⦿ Squeezing Range (SQ): Identifies periods of low volatility, which can often precede a significant price move. It checks if the Bollinger Bands have narrowed to a range that is smaller than the Average True Range (ATR) for a set number of consecutive bars (default 3).
(UpperBB - LowerBB) < (ATR × 2)
⦿ Mark 52-Weeks High and Low: Marks and labels a stock's 52-Week High and Low prices directly on the chart. It draws two horizontal lines extending from the candles where the highest and lowest prices occurred over the past year, providing a clear visual reference for long-term price extremes.

Game Theory Trading StrategyGame Theory Trading Strategy: Explanation and Working Logic
This Pine Script (version 5) code implements a trading strategy named "Game Theory Trading Strategy" in TradingView. Unlike the previous indicator, this is a full-fledged strategy with automated entry/exit rules, risk management, and backtesting capabilities. It uses Game Theory principles to analyze market behavior, focusing on herd behavior, institutional flows, liquidity traps, and Nash equilibrium to generate buy (long) and sell (short) signals. Below, I'll explain the strategy's purpose, working logic, key components, and usage tips in detail.
1. General Description
Purpose: The strategy identifies high-probability trading opportunities by combining Game Theory concepts (herd behavior, contrarian signals, Nash equilibrium) with technical analysis (RSI, volume, momentum). It aims to exploit market inefficiencies caused by retail herd behavior, institutional flows, and liquidity traps. The strategy is designed for automated trading with defined risk management (stop-loss/take-profit) and position sizing based on market conditions.
Key Features:
Herd Behavior Detection: Identifies retail panic buying/selling using RSI and volume spikes.
Liquidity Traps: Detects stop-loss hunting zones where price breaks recent highs/lows but reverses.
Institutional Flow Analysis: Tracks high-volume institutional activity via Accumulation/Distribution and volume spikes.
Nash Equilibrium: Uses statistical price bands to assess whether the market is in equilibrium or deviated (overbought/oversold).
Risk Management: Configurable stop-loss (SL) and take-profit (TP) percentages, dynamic position sizing based on Game Theory (minimax principle).
Visualization: Displays Nash bands, signals, background colors, and two tables (Game Theory status and backtest results).
Backtesting: Tracks performance metrics like win rate, profit factor, max drawdown, and Sharpe ratio.
Strategy Settings:
Initial capital: $10,000.
Pyramiding: Up to 3 positions.
Position size: 10% of equity (default_qty_value=10).
Configurable inputs for RSI, volume, liquidity, institutional flow, Nash equilibrium, and risk management.
Warning: This is a strategy, not just an indicator. It executes trades automatically in TradingView's Strategy Tester. Always backtest thoroughly and use proper risk management before live trading.
2. Working Logic (Step by Step)
The strategy processes each bar (candle) to generate signals, manage positions, and update performance metrics. Here's how it works:
a. Input Parameters
The inputs are grouped for clarity:
Herd Behavior (🐑):
RSI Period (14): For overbought/oversold detection.
Volume MA Period (20): To calculate average volume for spike detection.
Herd Threshold (2.0): Volume multiplier for detecting herd activity.
Liquidity Analysis (💧):
Liquidity Lookback (50): Bars to check for recent highs/lows.
Liquidity Sensitivity (1.5): Volume multiplier for trap detection.
Institutional Flow (🏦):
Institutional Volume Multiplier (2.5): For detecting large volume spikes.
Institutional MA Period (21): For Accumulation/Distribution smoothing.
Nash Equilibrium (⚖️):
Nash Period (100): For calculating price mean and standard deviation.
Nash Deviation (0.02): Multiplier for equilibrium bands.
Risk Management (🛡️):
Use Stop-Loss (true): Enables SL at 2% below/above entry price.
Use Take-Profit (true): Enables TP at 5% above/below entry price.
b. Herd Behavior Detection
RSI (14): Checks for extreme conditions:
Overbought: RSI > 70 (potential herd buying).
Oversold: RSI < 30 (potential herd selling).
Volume Spike: Volume > SMA(20) x 2.0 (herd_threshold).
Momentum: Price change over 10 bars (close - close ) compared to its SMA(20).
Herd Signals:
Herd Buying: RSI > 70 + volume spike + positive momentum = Retail buying frenzy (red background).
Herd Selling: RSI < 30 + volume spike + negative momentum = Retail selling panic (green background).
c. Liquidity Trap Detection
Recent Highs/Lows: Calculated over 50 bars (liquidity_lookback).
Psychological Levels: Nearest round numbers (e.g., $100, $110) as potential stop-loss zones.
Trap Conditions:
Up Trap: Price breaks recent high, closes below it, with a volume spike (volume > SMA x 1.5).
Down Trap: Price breaks recent low, closes above it, with a volume spike.
Visualization: Traps are marked with small red/green crosses above/below bars.
d. Institutional Flow Analysis
Volume Check: Volume > SMA(20) x 2.5 (inst_volume_mult) = Institutional activity.
Accumulation/Distribution (AD):
Formula: ((close - low) - (high - close)) / (high - low) * volume, cumulated over time.
Smoothed with SMA(21) (inst_ma_length).
Accumulation: AD > MA + high volume = Institutions buying.
Distribution: AD < MA + high volume = Institutions selling.
Smart Money Index: (close - open) / (high - low) * volume, smoothed with SMA(20). Positive = Smart money buying.
e. Nash Equilibrium
Calculation:
Price mean: SMA(100) (nash_period).
Standard deviation: stdev(100).
Upper Nash: Mean + StdDev x 0.02 (nash_deviation).
Lower Nash: Mean - StdDev x 0.02.
Conditions:
Near Equilibrium: Price between upper and lower Nash bands (stable market).
Above Nash: Price > upper band (overbought, sell potential).
Below Nash: Price < lower band (oversold, buy potential).
Visualization: Orange line (mean), red/green lines (upper/lower bands).
f. Game Theory Signals
The strategy generates three types of signals, combined into long/short triggers:
Contrarian Signals:
Buy: Herd selling + (accumulation or down trap) = Go against retail panic.
Sell: Herd buying + (distribution or up trap).
Momentum Signals:
Buy: Below Nash + positive smart money + no herd buying.
Sell: Above Nash + negative smart money + no herd selling.
Nash Reversion Signals:
Buy: Below Nash + rising close (close > close ) + volume > MA.
Sell: Above Nash + falling close + volume > MA.
Final Signals:
Long Signal: Contrarian buy OR momentum buy OR Nash reversion buy.
Short Signal: Contrarian sell OR momentum sell OR Nash reversion sell.
g. Position Management
Position Sizing (Minimax Principle):
Default: 1.0 (10% of equity).
In Nash equilibrium: Reduced to 0.5 (conservative).
During institutional volume: Increased to 1.5 (aggressive).
Entries:
Long: If long_signal is true and no existing long position (strategy.position_size <= 0).
Short: If short_signal is true and no existing short position (strategy.position_size >= 0).
Exits:
Stop-Loss: If use_sl=true, set at 2% below/above entry price.
Take-Profit: If use_tp=true, set at 5% above/below entry price.
Pyramiding: Up to 3 concurrent positions allowed.
h. Visualization
Nash Bands: Orange (mean), red (upper), green (lower).
Background Colors:
Herd buying: Red (90% transparency).
Herd selling: Green.
Institutional volume: Blue.

Use TradingView's alert system with Strategy Tester outputs.
3. Usage Tips
Timeframe: Best for H1-D1 timeframes. Shorter frames (M1-M15) may produce noisy signals.
Settings:
Risk Management: Adjust sl_percent (e.g., 1% for volatile markets) and tp_percent (e.g., 3% for scalping).
Herd Threshold: Increase to 2.5 for stricter herd detection in choppy markets.
Liquidity Lookback: Reduce to 20 for faster markets (e.g., crypto).
Nash Period: Increase to 200 for longer-term analysis.
Backtesting:
Use TradingView's Strategy Tester to evaluate performance.
Check win rate (>50%), profit factor (>1.5), and max drawdown (<20%) for viability.
Test on different assets/timeframes to ensure robustness.
Live Trading:
Start with a demo account.
Combine with other indicators (e.g., EMAs, support/resistance) for confirmation.
Monitor liquidity traps and institutional flow for context.
Risk Management:
Always use SL/TP to limit losses.
Adjust position_size for risk tolerance (e.g., 5% of equity for conservative trading).
Avoid over-leveraging (pyramiding=3 can amplify risk).
Troubleshooting:
If no trades are executed, check signal conditions (e.g., lower herd_threshold or liquidity_sensitivity).
Ensure sufficient historical data for Nash and liquidity calculations.
If tables overlap, adjust position.top_right/bottom_right coordinates.
4. Key Differences from the Previous Indicator
Indicator vs. Strategy: The previous code was an indicator (VP + Game Theory Integrated Strategy) focused on visualization and alerts. This is a strategy with automated entries/exits and backtesting.
Volume Profile: Absent in this strategy, making it lighter but less focused on high-volume zones.
Wick Analysis: Not included here, unlike the previous indicator's heavy reliance on wick patterns.
Backtesting: This strategy includes detailed performance metrics and a backtest table, absent in the indicator.
Simpler Signals: Focuses on Game Theory signals (contrarian, momentum, Nash reversion) without the "Power/Ultra Power" hierarchy.
Risk Management: Explicit SL/TP and dynamic position sizing, not present in the indicator.
5. Conclusion
The "Game Theory Trading Strategy" is a sophisticated system leveraging herd behavior, institutional flows, liquidity traps, and Nash equilibrium to trade market inefficiencies. It’s designed for traders who understand Game Theory principles and want automated execution with robust risk management. However, it requires thorough backtesting and parameter optimization for specific markets (e.g., forex, crypto, stocks). The backtest table and visual aids make it easy to monitor performance, but always combine with other analysis tools and proper capital management.

Internal Pivot Pattern [LuxAlgo]The Internal Pivot Pattern indicator is a novel method allowing traders to detect pivots without excessive delay on the chart timeframe, by using the lower timeframe data from a candle.
It features custom colors for candles and zigzag lines to help identify trends. A dashboard showing the accuracy of the pattern is also included.
🔶 USAGE
We define a pivot as the occurrence where the middle candle over a specific interval (for example, the most recent 21 bars) is the highest (pivot high) or the lowest (pivot low). This method commonly allows for identifying swing highs/lows on a trader's chart; however, this pattern can only be identified after a specific number of bars has been formed, rendering this pattern useless for real-time detection of swing highs/lows.
This indicator uses a different approach, removing the need to wait for candles to form on the user chart; instead, we check the lower timeframe data of the current candle and evaluate for the presence of a pivot given the internal data, effectively providing pivot confirmation at the candle close.
An internal pivot low pattern is indicative of a potential uptrend, while an internal pivot high is indicative of a potential downtrend.
Candles are colored based on the last internal pivot detected, with blue candle colors indicating that the most recent internal pivot is a pivot low, indicating an uptrend, while an orange candle color indicates that the most recent internal pivot is a pivot high, indicating a downtrend.
🔹 Timeframes
The timeframe setting allows controlling the amount of lower timeframe data to consider for the internal pivot detection. This setting must be lower than the user's chart timeframe.
Using a timeframe significantly lower than the user chart timeframe will evaluate a larger amount of data for the pivot detection, making it less frequent, while using a timeframe closer to the chart timeframe can make the internal pivot detection more frequent, and more prone to false positives.
🔹 Accuracy Dashboard
The Accuracy Dashboard allows evaluating how accurate the detected patterns are as a percentage, with a pattern being judged accurate if subsequent patterns are detected higher or lower than a previous one.
For example, an internal pivot low is judged accurate if the following internal pivot is higher than it, indicating that higher highs have been made.
This dashboard can be useful to determine the timeframe setting to maximize the respective internal pivot accuracy.
🔶 SETTINGS
Timeframe: Timeframe for detecting internal swings
Accuracy Dashboard: Enable or disable the Accuracy Dashboard.
🔹 Style
Internal Pivot High: Color of the dot displayed upon the detection of an internal pivot high
Internal Pivot Low: Color of the dot displayed upon the detection of an internal pivot low
Zig-Zag: Color of the zig-zag segments connecting each internal pivot
Candles: Enable candle coloring, with control over the color of the candles highlighting the detected trend

Script Summary: BARTRADINGPREDV4
This Pine Script indicator is a comprehensive trading tool that overlays on your TradingView chart. It combines moving averages, regression channels, volume analysis, RSI filtering, and pattern recognition to assist in making trading decisions. It also provides a forward-looking projection to help anticipate future price movement.
Key Features & Logic
1. Moving Averages
HMA (High Moving Average): Simple moving average of the high price over a user-defined lookback period.
LMA (Low Moving Average): Simple moving average of the low price over the same period.
HLMA (High-Low Moving Average): The average of HMA and LMA, providing a midline reference.
2. RSI Filtering
Optionally enables a Relative Strength Index (RSI) filter to help avoid trades when the market is not trending strongly.
Only allows buy signals if RSI is above 50, and sell signals if RSI is below 50 (if enabled).
3. Signal Generation
BUY Signal: Triggered when HL2 (average of OHLC) crosses over LMA and (optionally) RSI > 50.
SELL Signal: Triggered when HL2 crosses under HMA and (optionally) RSI < 50.
XSB (Extra Strong Buy): HL2 crosses over HMA, is above HLMA, up volume is greater than down volume, and (optionally) RSI > 50.
XBS (Extra Strong Sell): HL2 crosses under LMA, is below HLMA, down volume is greater than up volume, and (optionally) RSI < 50.
Enable/Disable XSB/XBS: You can turn these signals on or off via script inputs.
4. Take Profit (TP) and Stop Loss (SL) Levels
TP and SL are dynamically calculated based on the difference between HMA and LMA, providing contextually relevant exit levels.
5. Regression Channel and Prediction
Linear Regression Line: Plots a regression line over the lookback period to show the underlying trend.
ATR Channel: Adds an upper and lower channel around the regression line using ATR (Average True Range) for a realistic prediction envelope.
Forward Projection: Projects the regression line forward by a user-defined number of bars, visually showing where the trend could extend if current momentum persists.
6. Pattern Recognition
Higher Highs/Lows and Lower Highs/Lows: Marks bars where new higher highs/lows or lower highs/lows are set, helping you spot trend continuation or reversal points.
7. Status Table
A table shows the current price’s relationship to HMA, HLMA, and LMA, color-coded for quick visual interpretation.

Use the table: Quickly see if price is above or below each moving average.
Interpreting the Prediction Aspects
Regression Line & Channel
Regression Line (Yellow): Represents the best-fit line of price over the lookback period, showing overall trend direction.
ATR Channel: The upper and lower bands (yellow, semi-transparent) account for typical volatility, suggesting a range where price is likely to stay if the trend continues.
Forward Projection
Dashed Magenta Line: Projects the regression line forward by the specified number of bars, using the current slope. This is a trend continuation forecast—not a guarantee, but a statistically reasonable path if current conditions persist.
How to use: If price is respecting the regression trend and within the channel, the projection provides a visual target for where price might go in the near future.
TP/SL Levels
TP (Take Profit): Suggests a price target above the current HL2, based on recent volatility.
SL (Stop Loss): Suggests a protective stop below HL2.
Best Practices & Warnings
No indicator is perfect! Always combine signals with your own analysis and risk management.
Regression projection is not a crystal ball: It simply extends the current trend, which can and will change, especially after big news or at support/resistance.
Use on liquid, trending assets for best results.
Adjust lookback and ATR settings for your market and timeframe.
Summary Table Example
Price vs HMA vs HLMA vs LMA
43000 +100 +50 -20
Green: Price is above average (bullish).
Red: Price is below average (bearish).
Yellow: Price is very close to the average (neutral).
Final Notes
This script is designed to be a multi-tool for trend trading and prediction, combining classic and modern techniques. The forward projection helps visualize possible future price action, while signals and overlays keep you informed of trend shifts and trade opportunities.
Better MACD📘 Better MACD – Adaptive Momentum & Divergence Suite
Better MACD is a comprehensive momentum-trend tool that evolves the traditional MACD into a multi-dimensional, divergence-aware oscillator. It leverages exponential smoothing across logarithmic rate-of-change of OHLC data, adaptive signal processing, and intelligent divergence detection logic to provide traders with earlier, smoother, and more reliable momentum signals.
This indicator is built for professional-level analysis, suitable for scalping, swing trading, and trend-following systems.
🧬 Core Concept
Unlike the classic MACD which subtracts two EMAs of price, Better MACD constructs a signal by:
Applying logarithmic transformation on the change between OHLC components (Close, High, Low, Open).
Using double EMA smoothing to filter noise and volatility, Triangular method. 1st to 2nd Smoothing.
Averaging and de-biasing the results through a custom linear regression model, 4th Smoothing.
Subtracting a fast SMA and slow SMA response to yield a dynamic MACD value, 3rd Smoothing.
The result is a smooth, adaptive, and high-resolution MACD-style oscillator that responds more naturally to trend conditions and price geometry.
🧠 Features Breakdown
1. 📈 Multi-Layer MACD Engine
Src1: Smoothed Log Rate-of-Change on Close
Src2: Smoothed Log Rate-of-Change on High
Src3: Smoothed Log Rate-of-Change on Low
Src4: Smoothed Log Rate-of-Change on Open
These are blended using highest high, lowest low, and average Close price over a configurable window for more complete trend detection. The open-based Src4 is subtracted using SMA.
2. 🧮 Signal Line
A fast EMA (signalLength) of the Better MACD value is used for crossover logic.
Crossovers of MACD and Signal line signal potential entries or exits.

KST Strategy [Skyrexio]Overview
KST Strategy leverages Know Sure Thing (KST) indicator in conjunction with the Williams Alligator and Moving average to obtain the high probability setups. KST is used for for having the high probability to enter in the direction of a current trend when momentum is rising, Alligator is used as a short term trend filter, while Moving average approximates the long term trend and allows trades only in its direction. Also strategy has the additional optional filter on Choppiness Index which does not allow trades if market is choppy, above the user-specified threshold. Strategy has the user specified take profit and stop-loss numbers, but multiplied by Average True Range (ATR) value on the moment when trade is open. The strategy opens only long trades.
Unique Features
ATR based stop-loss and take profit. Instead of fixed take profit and stop-loss percentage strategy utilizes user chosen numbers multiplied by ATR for its calculation.
Configurable Trading Periods. Users can tailor the strategy to specific market windows, adapting to different market conditions.
Optional Choppiness Index filter. Strategy allows to choose if it will use the filter trades with Choppiness Index and set up its threshold.
Methodology
The strategy opens long trade when the following price met the conditions:
Close price is above the Alligator's jaw line
Close price is above the filtering Moving average
KST line of Know Sure Thing indicator shall cross over its signal line (details in justification of methodology)
If the Choppiness Index filter is enabled its value shall be less than user defined threshold
When the long trade is executed algorithm defines the stop-loss level as the low minus user defined number, multiplied by ATR at the trade open candle. Also it defines take profit with close price plus user defined number, multiplied by ATR at the trade open candle. While trade is in progress, if high price on any candle above the calculated take profit level or low price is below the calculated stop loss level, trade is closed.
Strategy settings
In the inputs window user can setup the following strategy settings:
ATR Stop Loss (by default = 1.5, number of ATRs to calculate stop-loss level)

Justification of Methodology
Before understanding why this particular combination of indicator has been chosen let's briefly explain what is KST, Williams Alligator, Moving Average, ATR and Choppiness Index.
The KST (Know Sure Thing) is a momentum oscillator developed by Martin Pring. It combines multiple Rate of Change (ROC) values, smoothed over different timeframes, to identify trend direction and momentum strength. First of all, what is ROC? ROC (Rate of Change) is a momentum indicator that measures the percentage change in price between the current price and the price a set number of periods ago.
ROC = 100 * (Current Price - Price N Periods Ago) / Price N Periods Ago
In our case N is the KST ROC Length inputs from settings, here we will calculate 4 different ROCs to obtain KST value:
KST = ROC1_smooth × 1 + ROC2_smooth × 2 + ROC3_smooth × 3 + ROC4_smooth × 4
ROC1 = ROC(close, KST ROC Length #1), smoothed by KST SMA Length #1,
ROC2 = ROC(close, KST ROC Length #2), smoothed by KST SMA Length #2,
ROC3 = ROC(close, KST ROC Length #3), smoothed by KST SMA Length #3,
ROC4 = ROC(close, KST ROC Length #4), smoothed by KST SMA Length #4
Also for this indicator the signal line is calculated:
Signal = SMA(KST, KST Signal Line Length)
When the KST line rises, it indicates increasing momentum and suggests that an upward trend may be developing. Conversely, when the KST line declines, it reflects weakening momentum and a potential downward trend. A crossover of the KST line above its signal line is considered a buy signal, while a crossover below the signal line is viewed as a sell signal. If the KST stays above zero, it indicates overall bullish momentum; if it remains below zero, it points to bearish momentum. The KST indicator smooths momentum across multiple timeframes, helping to reduce noise and provide clearer signals for medium- to long-term trends.
Next, let’s discuss the short-term trend filter, which combines the Williams Alligator and Williams Fractals. Williams Alligator
Developed by Bill Williams, the Alligator is a technical indicator that identifies trends and potential market reversals. It consists of three smoothed moving averages:
Jaw (Blue Line): The slowest of the three, based on a 13-period smoothed moving average shifted 8 bars ahead.
Teeth (Red Line): The medium-speed line, derived from an 8-period smoothed moving average shifted 5 bars forward.
Lips (Green Line): The fastest line, calculated using a 5-period smoothed moving average shifted 3 bars forward.
When the lines diverge and align in order, the "Alligator" is "awake," signaling a strong trend. When the lines overlap or intertwine, the "Alligator" is "asleep," indicating a range-bound or sideways market. This indicator helps traders determine when to enter or avoid trades.
The next indicator is Moving Average. It has a lot of different types which can be chosen to filter trades and the Least Squares MA is used by default settings. Let's briefly explain what is it.
The Least Squares Moving Average (LSMA) — also known as Linear Regression Moving Average — is a trend-following indicator that uses the least squares method to fit a straight line to the price data over a given period, then plots the value of that line at the most recent point. It draws the best-fitting straight line through the past N prices (using linear regression), and then takes the endpoint of that line as the value of the moving average for that bar. The LSMA aims to reduce lag and highlight the current trend more accurately than traditional moving averages like SMA or EMA.
Key Features:
It reacts faster to price changes than most moving averages.
It is smoother and less noisy than short-term EMAs.
It can be used to identify trend direction, momentum, and potential reversal points.
ATR (Average True Range) is a volatility indicator that measures how much an asset typically moves during a given period. It was introduced by J. Welles Wilder and is widely used to assess market volatility, not direction.
To calculate it first of all we need to get True Range (TR), this is the greatest value among:
High - Low
abs(High - Previous Close)
abs(Low - Previous Close)
ATR = MA(TR, n) , where n is number of periods for moving average, in our case equals 14.
ATR shows how much an asset moves on average per candle/bar. A higher ATR means more volatility; a lower ATR means a calmer market.
The Choppiness Index is a technical indicator that quantifies whether the market is trending or choppy (sideways). It doesn't indicate trend direction — only the strength or weakness of a trend. Higher Choppiness Index usually approximates the sideways market, while its low value tells us that there is a high probability of a trend.
Choppiness Index = 100 × log10(ΣATR(n) / (MaxHigh(n) - MinLow(n))) / log10(n)
where:
ΣATR(n) = sum of the Average True Range over n periods
MaxHigh(n) = highest high over n periods
MinLow(n) = lowest low over n periods
log10 = base-10 logarithm
Now let's understand how these indicators work in conjunction and why they were chosen for this strategy. KST indicator approximates current momentum, when it is rising and KST line crosses over the signal line there is high probability that short term trend is reversing to the upside and strategy allows to take part in this potential move. Alligator's jaw (blue) line is used as an approximation of a short term trend, taking trades only above it we want to avoid trading against trend to increase probability that long trade is going to be winning.
Almost the same for Moving Average, but it approximates the long term trend, this is just the additional filter. If we trade in the direction of the long term trend we increase probability that higher risk to reward trade will hit the take profit. Choppiness index is the optional filter, but if it turned on it is used for approximating if now market is in sideways or in trend. On the range bounded market the potential moves are restricted. We want to decrease probability opening trades in such condition avoiding trades if this index is above threshold value.
When trade is open script sets the stop loss and take profit targets. ATR approximates the current volatility, so we can make a decision when to exit a trade based on current market condition, it can increase the probability that strategy will avoid the excessive stop loss hits, but anyway user can setup how many ATRs to use as a stop loss and take profit target. As was said in the Methodology stop loss level is obtained by subtracting number of ATRs from trade opening candle low, while take profit by adding to this candle's close.
