Xtrender and TSI FusionXtrender and TSI Fusion Indicator
I created this indicator for myself. I was inspired by the indicators created by Bjorgum, Duyck and QuantTherapy and decided to create multiple indicators that either work well combined with their indicators or something new that applies some of their indicator concepts. I decided to share all of the indicator I have created because I believe in learning and earing together as a community. If you guys have any questions or suggestions write them.

How to Use
1.Xtrender Analysis:
Short-Term Xtrender: The short-term Xtrender is plotted as columns, changing color based on its direction and value. Green or lime indicates positive momentum, while red or maroon indicates negative momentum.
Xtrender T3: The Xtrender T3 line (black) represents a smoothed version of the short-term Xtrender, providing a clearer picture of the overall trend. The color of this line changes based on the Xtrender's value, helping you spot potential trend changes.
2.TSI (True Strength Index):
TSI Value and Signal Line: The TSI value is plotted as a line, with its color changing based on its relationship to the signal line. A crossover of the TSI above the signal line suggests a potential bullish move, while a crossover below indicates a bearish trend.
TSI Histogram: The histogram represents the difference between the TSI and its signal line. Positive values indicate bullish momentum, while negative values suggest bearish momentum.
3.Background Color:
The background color changes based on the TSI signal, with a greenish hue indicating bullish conditions and a reddish hue indicating bearish conditions. This provides a quick visual reference for market sentiment.
4.Zero Line:
A horizontal gray dotted line at the zero level helps you easily identify when the Xtrender or TSI crosses into positive or negative territory, signaling potential trend shifts.

Momentum Alligator 4h Bitcoin StrategyOverview
The Momentum Alligator 4h Bitcoin Strategy is a trend-following trading system that operates on dual time frames. It utilizes the 1D Williams Alligator indicator to identify the prevailing major price trend and seeks trading opportunities on the 4-hour (4h) time frame when the momentum is turning up. The strategy is designed to close trades if the trend fails to develop or holding position if price continues increasing without any significant correction. Note that this strategy is specifically tailored for the 4-hour time frame.
Unique Features
2-layers market noise filtering system: Trades are only initiated in the direction of the 1D trend, determined by the Williams Alligator indicator. This higher time frame confirmation filters out minor trade signals, focusing on more substantial opportunities. At the same time, strategy has additional filter on 4h time frame with Awesome Oscillator which is showing the current price momentum.
Flexible Risk Management: The strategy exclusively opens long positions, resulting in fewer trades during bear markets. It incorporates a dynamic stop-loss mechanism, which can either follow the jaw line of the 4h Alligator or a user-defined fixed stop-loss. This flexibility helps manage risk and avoid non-trending markets.
Methodology
The strategy initiates a long position when the d-line of Stochastic RSI crosses up it's k-line. It means that there is a high probability that price momentum reversed from down to up. To avoid overtrading in potentially choppy markets, it skips the next two trades following a winning trade, anticipating sideways movement after a significant price surge.
This strategy has two layers trades filtering system: 4h and 1D time frames. The first one is awesome oscillator. It shall be increasing and value has to be higher than it's 5-period SMA. This is an additional confirmation that long trade is opened in the direction of the current momentum. As it was mentioned above, all entry signals are validated against the 1D Williams Alligator indicator. A trade is only opened if the price is above all three lines of the 1D Alligator, ensuring alignment with the major trend.
A trade is closed if the price hits the 4h jaw line of the Alligator or reaches the user-defined stop-loss level.
Risk Management
The strategy employs a combined approach to risk management:
It allows positions to ride the trend as long as the price continues to move favorably, aiming to capture significant price movements. It features a user-defined stop-loss parameter to mitigate risks based on individual risk tolerance. By default, this stop-loss is set to a 2% drop from the entry point, but it can be adjusted according to the trader's preferences.
Justification of Methodology
This strategy leverages Stochastic RSI on 4h time frame to open long trade when momentum started reversing to the upside. On the one hand, Stochastic RSI is one of the most sensitive indicator, which allows to react fast on the potential trend reversal. On the other hand, this indicator can be too sensitive and provide a lot of false trend changing signals. To eliminate this weakness we use two-layers trades filtering system.
The first layer is the 4h Awesome oscillator. This is less sensitive momentum indicator. Usually it starts increasing when price has already passed significant distance from the actual reversal point. The strategy opens long trade only is Awesome oscillator is increasing and above it's 5-period SMA. This approach increases the probability to filter the false signals during the choppy market or if the reversal is false.
The second layer filter is the Williams Alligator indicator on 1D time frame. The 1D Alligator serves as a filter for identifying the primary trend and increases probability to avoid the trades with low potential because trading against major trend usually is more risky. It's much better to catch the trend continuation than local bounce.
Last but not least feature of this strategy is close trades condition. It uses the flexible approach. First of all, user can set up the fixed stop-loss according to his own risk-tolerance, by default this value is 2% of price movement. It restricts the potential loss at the moment when trade has just been opened. Moreover strategy utilizes the 4h Williams Alligator's jaw line to exit the trade. If price fell below it trade is closed. This approach helps to not keep open trade if trend is not developing and hold it if price continues going up.

Momentum ArrowsThis simple indicators paints the Momentum based on Stochastic, RSI or WaveTrend onto the Price Chart by showing Green or Red arrows.
In the settings it can be selected which indicator is used, Stochastic is selected by default.
Length of the arrows is determined by the strength of the momentum:
Stochastic: Difference between D and K
RSI: Difference from RSI-50
WaveTrend: Difference between the Waves
(Thanks to @LazyBear for the WaveTrend inspiration)
PS:
If anyone has an idea how to conditionally change the color of the arrows, then please let me know - that would be the icing on the cake. Then it would be possible to indicate Overbought/Oversold levels with different colors.
Unfortunately it currently seems not to be possible to dynamically change the arrow colour.
Momentum Covariance Oscillator by TenozenWell, guess what? A new indicator is here! Again it's a coincidence, as I experiment with my formula. So far it's less noisy than Autoregressive Covariance Oscillator, so possibly this one is better. The formula is much simpler, care me to explain.
___________________________________________________________________________________________________
Yt = close - previous average
Val = Yt/close
___________________________________________________________________________________________________
Welp that's the formula lol. Funny thing is that it's so simple, but it's good! What matters is the use of it haha.
So how to use this Oscillator? If the value is above 0, we expect a bullish response, if the value is below 0 we expect a bearish response. That simple. Ciao.
(Any questions and suggestions? feel free to comment!)
MACD-V with Volatility Normalisation [DCD]MACD-V with Volatility Normalisation
This indicator is a modified version of the traditional MACD, designed to account for market volatility by normalizing the MACD line using the Average True Range (ATR). It provides a more adaptive approach to identifying momentum shifts and potential trend reversals. This indicator was developed by Alex Spiroglou in this paper:
Spiroglou, Alex, MACD-V: Volatility Normalised Momentum (May 3, 2022).
Features:
Volatility Normalization: The MACD line is adjusted using ATR to standardize its values across different market conditions.
Customizable Parameters: Users can adjust the MACD fast length, slow length, signal line smoothing, and ATR length to suit their trading style.
Histogram Visualization: The histogram highlights the difference between the MACD and signal lines, with customizable colors for positive and negative momentum.
Crossover Signals: Green and red dots indicate bullish and bearish crossovers between the MACD and signal lines.
Background Highlighting: The chart background changes to green when the MACD is above 0 and red when it is below 0, providing a clear visual cue for bullish and bearish conditions.
Horizontal Levels: Dotted horizontal lines are plotted at key levels for better visualization of MACD values.
How to Use:
Look for crossovers between the MACD and signal lines to identify potential buy or sell signals.
Use the histogram to gauge the strength of momentum.
Pay attention to the background color for quick identification of bullish (green) or bearish (red) conditions.
This indicator is ideal for traders who want a more dynamic MACD that adapts to market volatility. Customize the settings to align with your trading strategy and timeframe.
Relative Directional Index (RDI)🔍 Overview
The Relative Directional Index (RDI) is a hybrid tool that fuses the Average Directional and the Relative Strength Indices (ADX and RSI) into a single, highly visual interface. While the former captures trend strength, the latter reveals momentum shifts and potential exhaustion. Together, they can confirm trend structure, anticipate reversals, and sharpen the timing entries and exits.
📌 Why Combine ADX with RSI?
Most indicators focus on either trend-following (like ADX) or momentum detection (like RSI)—but rarely both. Each comes with trade-offs:
- ADX alone confirms trend strength but ignores momentum.
- RSI alone signals overbought/oversold, but lacks trend context.
The RDI resolves this by integrating both, offering:
- Smarter filters for trend entries
- Early warnings of momentum breakdowns
- More confident signal validation
🧠 Design Note: Fibonacci Harmony
All default values—5, 13, 21—are Fibonacci numbers. This is intentional, as these values reflect the natural rhythm of market cycles, and promote harmonic calibration between price action and indicator logic.
🔥 Key Features
✅ ADX Histogram
- Green bars = trend gaining strength
- Red bars = trend weakening
- Adjustable transparency for visual tuning
✅ ADX Line (Orange)
- Measures trend strength over time
- Rising = accelerating trend
- Falling = trend may be fading
✅ RSI Line (Lemon Yellow)
- Captures momentum surges and slowdowns
- Above 50 = bullish control
- Below 50 = bearish pressure
✅ Trend Strength Squares
- Bright green = strong uptrend
- Bright red = strong downtrend
- Faded colors = range-bound or indecisive
✅ ADX/RSI Crossover Markers
- Yellow square = RSI crosses above ADX → momentum building
- Orange square = ADX crosses above RSI → trend still dominant
✅ Customizable Reference Lines
- Yellow (50) = strong trend threshold
- Red (30) = weak trend zone
- Green (70) = overextended, potential exhaustion
_______________________________________________________
🎯 How to Trade with the RDI
The RDI helps traders identify momentum-supported trends, catch early reversals, and avoid false signals during consolidation.
✅ Trend Confirmation Entries
🔼 Bullish → Enter long on pullbacks or resistance breakouts
- ADX rising above 30
- RSI above 50
- Green trend square visible
🔽 Bearish → Enter short on breakdowns or failed retests
- ADX rising
- RSI below 50
- Red trend square visible
🧯 Exit if RSI crosses back against trend direction or ADX flattens
🚨 Reversal Setups Using Divergence
📈 Bullish Divergence → Long entry after confirmation (e.g. engulfing bar, volume spike)
- Price prints lower low
- RSI prints higher low
- Green triangle
📉 Bearish Divergence → Short entry on breakdown
- Price prints higher high
- RSI prints lower high
- Red triangle
Tip: Stronger if ADX is declining (fading trend strength)
🔂 Breakout Detection via Cross Markers
- Yellow square = RSI > ADX → breakout brewing
- Orange square = ADX > RSI → trend continuation likely
⏸️ Avoid Choppy Markets
- RSI between 45–55
- Faded trend squares
- Flat ADX below 20–30
🧠 Pro Tips
- Combine RDI with VWAPs, moving averages and/or pitchforks
- Watch for alignment between trend and momentum
- Use divergence markers as confirmation, not stand-alone triggers
_______________________________________________________
⚠️ Hidden Divergence (Optional)
The RDI includes optional hidden divergence detection. These signals suggest trend continuation but are off by default. Use with discretion—best in established trends, not sideways markets.
🙈 Hidden Bullish
- Price prints higher low
- RSI prints lower low
🙈 Hidden Bearish
- Price prints lower high
- RSI prints higher high
Momentum Cycle Oscillator (MCO)1. Concept and Inspiration
The Momentum Cycle Oscillator (MCO) is a unique indicator designed to combine volatility and momentum into a unified tool for identifying market cycles. Traditional indicators often isolate either momentum (e.g., RSI) or volatility (e.g., Bollinger Bands), but the MCO bridges the gap by synthesizing these dimensions into one oscillating signal. By measuring price acceleration (momentum) and range consistency (volatility), the MCO aims to detect when a price cycle is shifting from contraction to expansion or vice versa, signaling potential trend reversals or continuations. Its zero-centered design provides a clear demarcation between bullish and bearish cycles.
2. Mathematical Structure
The MCO is built on two foundational components: the volatility factor and the momentum factor. The volatility factor quantifies the price range over a defined period, highlighting market consistency and expansion. Meanwhile, the momentum factor assesses the rate of change in smoothed closing prices, revealing directional acceleration. These two factors are multiplied to create the raw MCO value, which is further smoothed to reduce noise and improve readability. The resulting oscillator fluctuates around zero, with positive values indicating upward cycles and negative values signaling downward cycles.
3. Practical Applications
The MCO excels in identifying cycle turning points, where the market transitions from a bearish phase to a bullish phase or vice versa. Traders can use the zero line as a reference: a crossover from below to above zero suggests a potential buy signal, while a crossover from above to below zero indicates a sell signal. The MCO’s unique blend of volatility and momentum also helps detect shifts in trend strength, making it valuable in both trending and ranging markets. Its histogram visualization further aids traders by emphasizing the magnitude and direction of market momentum.
4. Innovative Features
What sets the MCO apart is its ability to adapt dynamically to market conditions. By fusing two dimensions of market behavior—volatility and momentum—it provides a holistic view of price action. Unlike traditional indicators that rely heavily on recursion (e.g., EMA), the MCO’s straightforward calculation reduces lag, ensuring timely signals. Furthermore, its use of normalized components allows it to function effectively across diverse assets and timeframes without extensive parameter tuning. This makes it particularly versatile for both intraday traders and long-term investors.
5. Limitations and Potential
While the MCO is robust, it is not immune to challenges. In highly choppy or low-volume markets, the indicator may generate false signals, as volatility and momentum can be erratic. Additionally, its performance depends on proper parameter calibration, with periods requiring adjustment to align with the asset’s behavior. However, its creative approach to combining volatility and momentum offers immense potential for refinement and customization. With proper backtesting and optimization, the MCO could become a staple tool for traders seeking a comprehensive yet simple way to interpret market cycles.
RSI Slope Filtered Signals [UAlgo]The "RSI Slope Filtered Signals " is a technical analysis tool designed to enhance the accuracy of RSI (Relative Strength Index) signals by incorporating slope analysis. This indicator not only considers the RSI value but also analyzes the slope of the RSI over a specified number of bars, providing a more refined signal that accounts for the momentum and trend strength. By utilizing both positive and negative slope arrays, the indicator dynamically adjusts its thresholds, ensuring that signals are responsive to changing market conditions. This tool is particularly useful for traders looking to identify overbought and oversold conditions with a higher degree of precision, filtering out noise and providing clear visual cues for potential market reversals.
🔶 Key Features
Dynamic Slope Analysis: Measures the slope of RSI over a customizable number of bars, offering insights into the momentum and trend direction.
Adaptive Thresholds: Uses historical slope data to calculate dynamic thresholds, adjusting signal sensitivity based on market conditions.
Normalized Slope Calculation: Normalizes the slope values to provide a consistent measure across different market conditions, making the indicator more versatile.
Clear Signal Visualization: The indicator plots both positive and negative normalized slopes with color gradients, visually representing the strength of the trend.
Overbought and Oversold Signals: Plots overbought and oversold signals directly on the chart when the calculated value reaches the user-specified threshold, helping traders identify potential reversal points.
Customizable Settings: Allows users to adjust the RSI length, slope measurement bars, and lookback periods, providing flexibility to tailor the indicator to different trading strategies.
🔶 Interpreting the Indicator
The "RSI Slope Filtered Signals " indicator is designed to be easy to interpret. Here's how you can use it:
Normalized Slope: The indicator plots the normalized slope of the RSI, with values above zero indicating positive momentum and values below zero indicating negative momentum. A higher positive slope suggests a strong upward trend, while a deeper negative slope indicates a strong downward trend.
Reversal Signals: The indicator plots several horizontal lines at different thresholds (+3, +2, +1, 0, -1, -2, -3). These levels are used to gauge the strength of the momentum based on the normalized slope. For example, a normalized slope crossing above the +2 threshold may indicate a strong bullish trend, while crossing below the -2 threshold may suggest a strong bearish trend. These thresholds help in understanding the intensity of the current trend and provide context for interpreting the indicator's signals.
This indicator generates overbought and oversold signals not solely based on the RSI entering extreme levels (above 70 for overbought and below 30 for oversold), but also by considering the behavior of the normalized slope relative to specific thresholds. Specifically, the Overbought Signal (🔽) is triggered when the RSI is above 70 and the normalized slope from the previous bar is greater than or equal to the upper threshold, with the current slope being lower than the previous slope, indicating a potential bearish reversal as momentum may be slowing down.
Similarly, the Oversold Signal (🔼) is generated when the RSI is below 30 and the normalized slope from the previous bar is less than or equal to the lower threshold, with the current slope being higher than the previous slope, signaling a potential bullish reversal as the downward momentum may be weakening.
Area Plots: The indicator also plots the positive and negative slopes as filled areas, providing a quick visual cue for the strength and direction of the trend. Green areas represent positive slopes (upward momentum), while red areas represent negative slopes (downward momentum).
By combining these elements, the "RSI Slope Filtered Signals " provides a comprehensive view of the market's momentum, helping traders make more informed decisions by filtering out false signals and focusing on the significant trends.

Momentum Madness (AKA: Moms Mad)The "Momentum Madness" indicator is a customizable technical analysis tool designed for TradingView. It aims to help traders assess price momentum and make informed trading decisions. Below is a description of how this indicator works:
Indicator Title and Settings:
The indicator is titled "Momentum Madness" with a short title "Moms Mad."
Users can customize various settings to tailor the indicator to their preferences.
Input Parameters:
Traders can set the lengths (periods) for four different momentum calculations (len1, len2, len3, len4).
They can specify a lookback period for trend direction determination.
Users can choose from three smoothing types (RMA, SMA, EMA) and set the smoothing length (smoothLength).
The indicator offers options to adjust momentum calculations based on volume (useVolumeWeight), RSI (useRSIAdjustment), and MACD (useMACDAdjustment).
If the trend filter is enabled (useTrendFilter), the indicator considers whether the price is above the 200-period SMA.
Traders can incorporate Bollinger Bands adjustments (useBBAdjustment) and set the Bollinger Bands length (bbLength).
A volatility adjustment can be applied (useVolatilityAdjustment), using the Average True Range (ATR) with a specified length (atrLength).
Smoothing Function:
The indicator offers three smoothing options: RMA, SMA, and EMA, allowing users to select their preferred method for smoothing price data.
Momentum Calculations:
The indicator calculates four different momentum values (mom1, mom2, mom3, mom4) by subtracting the current price from historical prices based on the specified lengths.
Enhancement Features:
Users can enhance momentum calculations through volume weighting, RSI adjustment, MACD adjustment, trend filtering, Bollinger Bands adjustment, and volatility adjustment, depending on their preferences.
Trend Direction Detection:
The indicator identifies the trend direction based on the comparison of the current momentum (mom4Smooth) with a momentum value from a specified lookback period. It determines whether the trend is bullish (green), bearish (red), or neutral (no change).
Plots:
The indicator visualizes the four smoothed momentum values (mom1Smooth, mom2Smooth, mom3Smooth, mom4Smooth) as separate plots on the chart, each with its own customizable color.
A zero line is displayed for reference (yellow).
The average momentum (averageMomentumSmooth) is plotted and can be customized with its own color.
The "Momentum 4" plot dynamically changes color based on trend direction (green for bullish, red for bearish).
Fill:
The indicator fills the area between the "Momentum 4" plot and the zero line with a customizable color to highlight bullish or bearish momentum.
Look for crossover events by studying the chart and understanding what they all mean. Happy trading :)
Momentum RSIThis RSI is used to determine price Momentum and Overbought or Oversold Market conditions. When the RSI is between 50% and 70% price is considered to have upward momentum. When The RSI is between 50% and 30% price is considered to have downward momentum. When the RSI is between 40% and 60% price is considered to have no directional momentum and is considered to be in consolidation. When the RSI is above 70% price is to be considered Overbought. When the RSI is bellow 30% price is to be considered Oversold
Momentum-Adjusted Volatility Ratio (MAVR)The Momentum-Adjusted Volatility Ratio (MAVR) indicator is designed to help you understand the strength of price movements relative to the market's volatility. It combines the concepts of rate of change (ROC) and average true range (ATR) and then calculates their ratio, which is then smoothed using an exponential moving average (EMA). Here's a general guide on how to use the MAVR indicator:
Identify the trend: Look for the overall direction of the EMA of the MAVR. When the EMA is above the zero line, it indicates that the momentum is positive and the trend is generally bullish. Conversely, when the EMA is below the zero line, it indicates that the momentum is negative, and the trend is generally bearish.
Assess momentum strength: Pay attention to the distance between the EMA of the MAVR and the zero line. A larger distance indicates a stronger momentum, while a smaller distance suggests weaker momentum. If the EMA of the MAVR moves further away from the zero line, it indicates that the price movement is becoming more robust relative to the market's volatility.
Look for potential entry and exit signals: When the EMA of the MAVR crosses the zero line, it could provide a potential trading signal. For instance, a cross from below to above the zero line may indicate a potential buying opportunity, while a cross from above to below the zero line may signal a potential selling opportunity. Keep in mind that the MAVR indicator should not be used in isolation, and it's essential to combine it with other technical analysis tools and risk management techniques.
Monitor for divergences: Sometimes, the price and the EMA of the MAVR can show divergences. For example, if the price makes a higher high while the EMA of the MAVR makes a lower high, it could signal a bearish divergence, suggesting a potential trend reversal. Similarly, if the price makes a lower low while the EMA of the MAVR makes a higher low, it could indicate a bullish divergence, suggesting a possible trend reversal.
Remember that no indicator is perfect, and the MAVR should be used in conjunction with other technical analysis tools and a solid trading strategy to increase the chances of success. Always use proper risk management techniques to protect your capital.
Strategy Myth-Busting #6 - PSAR+MA+SQZMOM+HVI - [MYN]This is part of a new series we are calling "Strategy Myth-Busting" where we take open public manual trading strategies and automate them. The goal is to not only validate the authenticity of the claims but to provide an automated version for traders who wish to trade autonomously.
Our sixth one we are automating is " I Tested ''7% Profit Per Day" Scalping Strategy 100 Times ( Unexpected Results ) " from " TradeIQ " which claims to have made 175% profit on the 5 min chart of BTCUSD with a having a 61% win rate in just 32 days.
Originally, we mimicked verbatim the indicators and settings TradeIQ was using however weren't getting promising results anything close to the claim so we decided to try and improve on it. We changed the static Parabolic SAR to be adaptive based upon the timeframe. We did this by using an adjustable multiplier for the PSAR Max. Also, In TradeIQ's revised version he substituted Hawkeye's Volume Indicator in lieu of Squeeze Momentum. We found that including both indicators we were getting better results so included them both. Feel free to experiment more. Would love to see how this could be improved on.
This strategy uses a combination of 4 open-source public indicators:
Parabolic Sar (built in)
10 in 1 MA's by hiimannshu
Squeeze Momentum by lazybear
HawkEYE Volume Indicator by lazybear
Trading Rules
5m timeframe and above. We saw equally good results in the higher (3h - 4h) timeframes as well.
Long Entry:
Parabolic Sar shifts below price at last dot above and then previous bar needs to breach above that.
Price action has to be below both MA's and 50MA needs to be above 200MA
Squeeze Momentum needsd to be in green or close to going green
HawkEYE Volume Indicator needs to be show a green bar on the histagram
Short Entry:
Parabolic Sar shifts above price at last dot below and then previous bar needs to breach below that.
Price action needs to be above both MA's and 50MA needs to be below 200MA
Squeeze Momentum needsd to be in red or close to going red
HawkEYE Volume Indicator needs to be show a red bar on the histagram
If you know of or have a strategy you want to see myth-busted or just have an idea for one, please feel free to message me.
WVF - OscillatorAnother attempt on making use of CM-Williams-Vix-Fix-Finds-Market-Bottoms from Chris Moody - which is arguably one of the best indicator available on pine and tradingview platform. Every time I revisit this, I get new ideas on applying this method.
I have slightly altered formula to
highest(source)-source/highest(source)
from the original formula
highest(close)-low/highest(close)
Process is simple:
Calculate WVF for OHLC values separately
Calculate momentum on each of the WVF values based on distance from moving average
Plot the candles based on OHLC momentum.
Candle color depends on whether close, open and previous close. If close is higher than open and previous close, we get green coloured candles. If close is lower than previous close and open then we get red coloured candles. In all other cases, we will have silver candles.
High/Low bands are calculated based on median of highest and lowest values of VixFix. We also plot median of close which can be used in some cases.
How to use this to find market bottom. Look for one of the below conditions:
First red candle above high band - which signals momentum of vix fix is about to fall.
First red candle above median line - can be used only if upward momentum of wvf candles are trending well.
Crossunder of wvf candles under high band.
Possible exit scenarios
Green WVF candle formed above WVF high line
Entry is taken on first red candle above median line - but, candles turned green before WVF crossing under median line - may signal our thesis is wrong and price may drop further.
Some examples.
Super D2Momentum Indicator based on previous candle structure over past 40 periods
- Blue is momentum score
- Green = 15 ema
- Red = 50 sma
- orange = 100 sma
The indicator looks at the previous candles differences between open, close, high, and low to determine momentum. A high close relative to open or low indicates very strong momentum for example.

- **Poisson-Based Trend Reversal Probability Projection** (to anticipate when a trend is likely to end based on statistical models).
By integrating **fractal market theory (Hurst exponent)** with **Poisson probability distributions**, this indicator gives traders a **probability-weighted view of trend duration** while dynamically adapting to market volatility.

## **Simplified Explanation (How to Read the Indicator at a Glance)**
1. **If the oscillator line is going up → The trend is strong.**
2. **If the oscillator line is going down → The trend is weakening.**
3. **If the color shifts from red to green (or vice versa), a trend shift has occurred.**
- **Strong trends can change color without weakening** (meaning a bullish or bearish move can remain powerful even as the trend shifts).
4. **A weakening trend does NOT necessarily mean a reversal is coming.**
- The trend may slow down but continue in the same direction.
5. **A strong trend does NOT guarantee it will last.**
- Even a powerful move can **suddenly reverse**, which is why the **Poisson-based background shading** helps anticipate probabilities of change.
---
## **How to Use the Indicator**
### **1. Understanding the Rolling Hurst-Based Trend Oscillator (Main Line)**
The **oscillator line** is based on the **Hurst exponent (H)**, which quantifies whether price movements are:
- **Trending** (values above 0 → momentum-driven, persistent trends).
- **Mean-reverting** (values below 0 → price action is choppy, likely to revert to the mean).
- **Neutral (Random Walk)** (values around 0 → price behaves like a purely stochastic process).
#### **Interpreting the Oscillator:**
- **H > 0.5 → Persistent Trends:**
- Price moves tend to sustain in one direction for longer periods.
- Example: Strong uptrends in bull markets.
- **H < 0.5 → Mean-Reverting Behavior:**
- Price has a tendency to revert back to its mean.
- Example: Sideways markets or fading momentum.
- **H ≈ 0.5 → Random Walk:**
- No clear trend; price is unpredictable.
A **gray dashed horizontal line at 0** serves as a **baseline**, helping traders quickly assess whether the market is **favoring trends or mean reversion**.
---
### **2. Color-Coded Trend Signal (Visual Confirmation of Trend Shifts)**
The oscillator **changes color** based on **price slope** over the lookback period:
- **🟢 Green → Uptrend (Price Increasing)**
- Price is rising relative to the selected lookback period.
- Suggests sustained bullish pressure.
- **🔴 Red → Downtrend (Price Decreasing)**
- Price is falling relative to the selected lookback period.
- Suggests sustained bearish pressure.
#### **How to Use This in Trading**
✔ **Stay in trends until a color change occurs.**
✔ **Use color changes as confirmation for trend reversals.**
✔ **Avoid counter-trend trades when the oscillator remains strongly colored.**
---
### **3. Poisson-Based Trend Reversal Projection (Anticipating Future Shifts)**
The **shaded orange background** represents a **Poisson-based probability estimation** of when the trend is likely to reverse.
- **Darker Orange = Higher Probability of Trend Reversal**
- **Lighter Orange / No Shade = Low Probability of Immediate Reversal**
💡 **The idea behind this model:**
✔ Trends **don’t last forever**, and their duration follows **statistical patterns**.
✔ By calculating the **average historical trend duration**, the indicator predicts **how likely a trend shift is at any given time**.
✔ The **Poisson probability function** is applied to determine the **expected likelihood of a reversal as time progresses**.
---
## **Mathematical Foundations of the Indicator**
This indicator is based on **two primary statistical models**:
### **1. Hurst Exponent & Trend Persistence (Fractal Market Theory)**
- The **Hurst exponent (H)** measures **autocorrelation** in price movements.
- If past trends **persist**, H will be **above 0.5** (meaning trend-following strategies are favorable).
- If past trends tend to **mean-revert**, H will be **below 0.5** (meaning reversal strategies are more effective).
- The **Rolling Hurst Oscillator** calculates this exponent over a moving window to track real-time trend conditions.
#### **Formula Breakdown (Simplified for Traders)**
The Hurst exponent (H) is derived using the **Rescaled Range (R/S) Analysis**:
\
Where:
- **R** = **Range** (difference between max cumulative deviation and min cumulative deviation).
- **S** = **Standard deviation** of price fluctuations.
- **Lookback** = The number of periods analyzed.
---
### **2. Poisson-Based Trend Reversal Probability (Stochastic Process Modeling)**
The **Poisson process** is a **probabilistic model used for estimating time-based events**, applied here to **predict trend reversals based on past trend durations**.
#### **How It Works**
- The indicator **tracks trend durations** (the time between color changes).
- A **Poisson rate parameter (λ)** is computed as:
\
- The **probability of a reversal at any given time (t)** is estimated using:
\
- **As t increases (trend continues), the probability of reversal rises**.
- The indicator **shades the background based on this probability**, visually displaying the likelihood of a **trend shift**.
---
## **Dynamic Adaptation to Market Conditions**
✔ **Volatility-Adjusted Trend Shifts:**
- A **custom volatility calculation** dynamically adjusts the **minimum trend duration** required before a trend shift is recognized.
- **Higher volatility → Requires longer confirmation before switching trend color.**
- **Lower volatility → Allows faster trend shifts.**
✔ **Adaptive Poisson Weighting:**
- **Recent trends are weighted more heavily** using an exponential decay function:
- **Decay Factor (0.618 by default)** prioritizes **recent intervals** while still considering historical trends.
- This ensures the model adapts to changing market conditions.
---
## **Key Takeaways for Traders**
✅ **Identify Persistent Trends vs. Mean Reversion:**
- Use the oscillator line to determine whether the market favors **trend-following or counter-trend strategies**.
✅ **Visual Trend Confirmation via Color Coding:**
- **Green = Uptrend**, **Red = Downtrend**.
- Trend changes help confirm **entry and exit points**.
✅ **Anticipate Trend Reversals Using Probability Models:**
- The **Poisson projection** provides a **statistical edge** in **timing exits before trends reverse**.
✅ **Adapt to Market Volatility Automatically:**
- Dynamic **volatility scaling** ensures the indicator remains effective in **both high and low volatility environments**.
Happy trading and enjoy!
Coppock Curve with Pivot Points and Divergence The Coppock Curve is a long-term price momentum indicator used primarily to recognize major downturns and upturns in a stock market index. It is calculated as a 10-month weighted moving average of the sum of the 14-month rate of change and the 11-month rate of change for the index. It is also known as the "Coppock Guide."
The Coppock formula was introduced in Barron's in 1962 by Edwin Coppock.
The Coppock Curve is a technical indicator that provides long-term buy and sell signals for major stock indexes and related ETFs based on shifts in momentum.
What Does the Coppock Curve Tell You?
The Coppock Curve was originally implemented as a long-term buy and sell indicator for major indices such as the S&P 500 and the Wilshire 5000. Often, it is used with long-term time series such as a candlestick chart, but where each candle contains a month's worth of price information.
The Difference Between the Coppock Curve and Rate of Relative Strength Index (RSI)?
The relative strength index looks at how the current price compares to prior prices, though it is calculated differently than the rate of change (ROC) indicator used in the Coppock Curve calculation. Therefore, these indicators will provide different trade signals and information.
What are those circles?
-These are Divergences. Red for Regular-Bearish. Orange for Hidden-Bearish. Green for Regular-Bullish. Aqua for Hidden-Bullish.
What are those triangles?
- These are Pivots . They show when the VPT oscillator might reverse, this is important to know because many times the price action follows this move.
Please keep in mind that this indicator is a tool and not a strategy, do not blindly trade signals, do your own research first! Use this indicator in conjunction with other indicators to get multiple confirmations.
Momentum & Williams %R This strategy join 2 power study indicators on the same plot: Willian %R and Momentum.
Willian %R can indicate the good time for you buy or sale. Less than -80 indicate good buying opportunity . Greater than -20 good sale opportunity.
Momentum can indicate the good price for buy or sale, in other words, can indicate the speed the price goes down or goes up.
By Baldasso, March 2019.
Momentum Sentiment Indicator by mattzabThis indicator uses 3 moving averages and includes volume to display sentiment and momentum.
By default, a 5, 8, and 13 SMA is displayed (black lines).
The colored bands are the corresponding volume weighted moving averages.
When the colored band is above the black line, sentiment is bullish.
Think of the color as being a show of volume, and the black lines as support and resistance.
When the lines are trending up, and colors are above the black lines, an uptrend is in progress.
When the colors are mixed above and below, and the lines are intertwined, it is a ranging market.
The lines operate similar to the Williams Alligator.
Momentum Line StrategyI got the idea of an algorithm using a gap, which would behave a bit like RSI, therefore I called it momentum. Don't know if it's very useful or how to improve it, it can keeps you in trends, however it suffers from whipsawing. My first attempt in programming a strategy.

Momentum Charge Theory (MCT)-(TechnoBlooms)The Momentum Charge Theory (MCT) Indicator is an advanced physics and mathematics-inspired trend detection system designed to identify market energy shifts with precision. Unlike traditional indicators that rely on static formulas, MCT integrates entropy, volatility, kinetic energy, and wavelet transforms to map price dynamics in real time.
Built on Scientific Principles – This indicator applies quantum-inspired charge-discharge mechanics to spot early trend formations and reversals. Think of price action like an energy system: it charges (builds momentum) before an explosive move and discharges when that energy dissipates.
Core Concepts Behind MCT
1️⃣ Directional Market Entropy – Measuring Trend Strength
Entropy quantifies market randomness – is the trend structured or chaotic?
✅ A high-entropy market is uncertain (choppy price action), while a low-entropy market signals a strong directional trend.
✅ MCT normalizes entropy, allowing traders to differentiate trend acceleration from market noise.
2️⃣ Information Flow Volatility – Identifying Breakout Zones
Inspired by Econophysics, this component measures volatility based on information flow rather than simple price movements.
✅ Helps spot high-volatility breakout conditions before they occur.
✅ Filters out false breakouts caused by random market noise.
3️⃣ Kinetic Energy Momentum (KEM) – The Physics of Price Acceleration
Just like in physics, momentum is a function of mass and velocity – in trading, this translates to volume and price change.
✅ Uses kinetic energy equations to identify price acceleration zones.
✅ Helps detect momentum shifts before price visibly reacts.
4️⃣ Hilbert Transform Approximation – Slope & Trend Direction Analysis
Applies Hilbert Transforms to estimate trend angle shifts.
✅ Detects momentum decay and early reversal signals.
✅ Captures the true trend slope rather than relying on lagging moving averages.
5️⃣ Wavelet Transform – Advanced Noise Filtering & Trend Confirmation
Market movements contain multiple frequencies – wavelet transforms isolate dominant trends while removing short-term price noise.
✅ Improves trend clarity by reducing false signals.
✅ Acts as a final confirmation filter before generating Charge & Discharge signals.
Charge & Discharge – The Energy Behind Market Moves
🔹 Charge (Uptrend Activation)
A blue triangle appears below the candle when market conditions align for a strong bullish move.
📈 Indicates momentum buildup, low entropy, and trend strength confirmation.
🔸 Discharge (Downtrend Activation)
A purple triangle appears above the candle when price momentum weakens and market entropy increases.
📉 Suggests a potential trend exhaustion or reversal.
Best Use Cases for Traders
✅ Momentum Traders – Catch trend initiations before they gain full traction.
✅ Breakout Traders – Identify high-information flow zones with volatility-driven signals.
✅ Trend Followers – Avoid false signals by relying on entropy-driven confirmations.
The MCT indicator can be combined with any of your usual indicators for trend confirmation.
Uptrick: Acceleration ShiftsIntroduction
Uptrick: Acceleration Shifts is designed to measure and visualize price momentum shifts by focusing on acceleration —the rate of change in velocity over time. It uses various moving average techniques as a trend filter, providing traders with a clearer perspective on market direction and potential trade entries or exits.
Purpose
The main goal of this indicator is to spot strong momentum changes (accelerations) and confirm them with a chosen trend filter. It attempts to distinguish genuine market moves from noise, helping traders make more informed decisions. The script can also trigger multiple entries (smart pyramiding) within the same trend, if desired.
Overview
By measuring how quickly price velocity changes (acceleration) and comparing it against a smoothed average of itself, this script generates buy or sell signals once the acceleration surpasses a given threshold. A trend filter is added for further validation. Users can choose from multiple smoothing methods and color schemes, and they can optionally enable a small table that displays real-time acceleration values.
Originality and Uniqueness
This script offers an acceleration-based approach, backed by several different moving average choices. The blend of acceleration thresholds, a trend filter, and an optional extra-entry (pyramiding) feature provides a flexible toolkit for various trading styles. The inclusion of multiple color themes and a slope-based coloring of the trend line adds clarity and user customization.
Inputs & Features
1. Acceleration Length (length)
This input determines the number of bars used when calculating velocity. Specifically, the script computes velocity by taking the difference in closing prices over length bars, and then calculates acceleration based on how that velocity changes over an additional length. The default is 14.
2. Trend Filter Length (smoothing)
This sets the lookback period for the chosen trend filter method. The default of 50 results in a moderately smooth trend line. A higher smoothing value will create a slower-moving trend filter.
3. Acceleration Threshold (threshold)
This multiplier determines when acceleration is considered strong enough to trigger a main buy or sell signal. A default value of 2.5 means the current acceleration must exceed 2.5 times the average acceleration before signaling.
4. Smart Pyramiding Strength (pyramidingThreshold)
This lower threshold is used for additional (pyramiding) entries once the main trend has already been identified. For instance, if set to 0.5, the script looks for acceleration crossing ±0.5 times its average acceleration to add extra positions.
5. Max Pyramiding Entries (maxPyramidingEntries)
This sets a limit on how many extra positions can be opened (beyond the first main signal) in a single directional trend. The default of 3 ensures traders do not become overexposed.
6. Show Acceleration Table (showTable)
When enabled, a small table displaying the current acceleration and its average is added to the top-right corner of the chart. This table helps monitor real-time momentum changes.
7. Smart Pyramiding (enablePyramiding)
This toggle decides whether additional entries (buy or sell) will be generated once a main signal is active. If enabled, these extra signals act as filtered entries, only firing when acceleration re-crosses a smaller threshold (pyramidingThreshold). These signals have a '+' next to their signal on the label.
8. Select Color Scheme (selectedColorScheme)
Allows choosing between various pre-coded color themes, such as Default, Emerald, Sapphire, Golden Blaze, Mystic, Monochrome, Pastel, Vibrant, Earth, or Neon. Each theme applies a distinct pair of colors for bullish and bearish conditions.
9. Trend Filter (TrendFilter)
Lets the user pick one of several moving average approaches to determine the prevailing trend. The options include:
Short Term (TEMA)
EWMA
Medium Term (HMA)
Classic (SMA)
Quick Reaction (DEMA)
Each method behaves differently, balancing reactivity and smoothness.
10. Slope Lookback (slopeOffset)
Used to measure the slope of the trend filter over a set number of bars (default is 10). This slope then influences the coloring of the trend filter line, indicating bullish or bearish tilt.
Note: The script refers to this as the "Massive Slope Index," but it effectively serves as a Trend Slope Calculation, measuring how the chosen trend filter changes over a specified period.
11. Alerts for Buy/Sell and Pyramiding Signals
The script includes built-in alert conditions that can be enabled or configured. These alerts trigger whenever the script detects a main Buy or Sell signal, as well as extra (pyramiding) signals if Smart Pyramiding is active. This feature allows traders to receive immediate notifications or automate a trading response.
Calculation Methodology
1. Velocity and Acceleration
Velocity is derived by subtracting the closing price from its value length bars ago. Acceleration is the difference in velocity over an additional length period. This highlights how quickly momentum is shifting.
2. Average Acceleration
The script smooths raw acceleration with a simple moving average (SMA) using the smoothing input. Comparing current acceleration against this average provides a threshold-based signal mechanism.
3. Trend Filter
Users can pick one of five moving average types to form a trend baseline. These range from quick-reacting methods (DEMA, TEMA) to smoother options (SMA, HMA, EWMA). The script checks whether the price is above or below this filter to confirm trend direction.
4. Buy/Sell Logic
A buy occurs when acceleration surpasses avgAcceleration * threshold and price closes above the trend filter. A sell occurs under the opposite conditions. An additional overbought/oversold check (based on a longer SMA) refines these signals further.
When price is considered oversold (i.e., close is below a longer-term SMA), a bullish acceleration signal has a higher likelihood of success because it indicates that the market is attempting to reverse from a lower price region. Conversely, when price is considered overbought (close is above this longer-term SMA), a bearish acceleration signal is more likely to be valid. This helps reduce false signals by waiting until the market is extended enough that a reversal or continuation has a stronger chance of following through.
5. Smart Pyramiding
Once a main buy or sell signal is triggered, additional (filtered) entries can be taken if acceleration crosses a smaller multiplier (pyramidingThreshold). This helps traders scale into strong moves. The script enforces a cap (maxPyramidingEntries) to limit risk.
6. Visual Elements
Candles can be recolored based on the active signal. Labels appear on the chart whenever a main or pyramiding entry signal is triggered. An optional table can show real-time acceleration values.
Color Schemes
The script includes a variety of predefined color themes. For bullish conditions, it might use turquoise or green, and for bearish conditions, magenta or red—depending on which color scheme the user selects. Each scheme aims to provide clear visual differentiation between bullish and bearish market states.
Why Each Indicator Was Part of This Component
Acceleration is employed to detect swift changes in momentum, capturing shifts that may not yet appear in more traditional measures. To further adapt to different trading styles and market conditions, several moving average methods are incorporated:
• TEMA (Triple Exponential Moving Average) is chosen for its ability to reduce lag more effectively than a standard EMA while still reacting swiftly to price changes. Its construction layers exponential smoothing in a way that can highlight sudden momentum shifts without sacrificing too much smoothness.
• DEMA (Double Exponential Moving Average) provides a faster response than a single EMA by using two layers of exponential smoothing. It is slightly less smoothed than TEMA but can alert traders to momentum changes earlier, though with a higher risk of noise in choppier markets.
• HMA (Hull Moving Average) is known for its balance of smoothness and reduced lag. Its weighted calculations help track trend direction clearly, making it useful for traders who want a smoother line that still reacts fairly quickly.
• SMA (Simple Moving Average) is the classic baseline for smoothing price data. It offers a clear, stable perspective on long-term trends, though it reacts more slowly than other methods. Its simplicity can be beneficial in lower-volatility or more stable market environments.
• EWMA (Exponentially Weighted Moving Average) provides a middle ground by emphasizing recent price data while still retaining some degree of smoothing. It typically responds faster than an SMA but is less aggressive than DEMA or TEMA.
Alongside these moving average techniques, the script employs a slope calculation (referred to as the “Massive Slope Index”) to visually indicate whether the chosen filter is sloping upward or downward. This adds an extra layer of clarity to directional analysis. The indicator also uses overbought/oversold checks, based on a longer-term SMA, to help filter out signals in overstretched markets—reducing the likelihood of false entries in conditions where the price is already extensively extended.
Additional Features
Alerts can be set up for both main signals and additional pyramiding signals, which is helpful for automated or semi-automated trading. The optional acceleration table offers quick reference values, making momentum monitoring more intuitive. Including explicit alert conditions for Buy/Sell and Pyramiding ensures traders can respond promptly to market movements or integrate these triggers into automated strategies.
Summary
This script serves as a comprehensive momentum-based trading framework, leveraging acceleration metrics and multiple moving average filters to identify potential shifts in market direction. By combining overbought/oversold checks with threshold-based triggers, it aims to reduce the noise that commonly plagues purely reactive indicators. The flexibility of Smart Pyramiding, customizable color schemes, and built-in alerts allows users to tailor their experience and respond swiftly to valid signals, potentially enhancing trading decisions across various market conditions.

All trading involves significant risk, and users should apply their own judgment, risk management, and broader analysis before making investment decisions.
Uptrick: FRAMA Matrix RSIUptrick: FRAMA Matrix RSI
Introduction
The Uptrick: FRAMA Matrix RSI is a momentum-based indicator that integrates the Relative Strength Index (RSI) with the Fractal Adaptive Moving Average (FRAMA). By applying FRAMA's adaptive smoothing to RSI—and further refining it with a Zero-Lag Moving Average (ZLMA)—this script creates a refined and reliable momentum oscillator. The indicator now includes enhanced divergence detection, potential reversal signals, customizable buy/sell signal options, an internal stats table, and a fully customizable bar coloring system for an enhanced visual trading experience.
Why Combine RSI with FRAMA
Traditional RSI is a well-known momentum indicator but has several limitations. It is highly sensitive to price fluctuations, often generating false signals in choppy or volatile markets. FRAMA, in contrast, adapts dynamically to price changes by adjusting its smoothing factor based on market conditions.
By integrating FRAMA into RSI calculations, this indicator reduces noise while preserving RSI's ability to track momentum, adapts to volatility by reducing lag in trending markets and smoothing out choppiness in ranging conditions, enhances trend-following capability for more reliable momentum shifts, and refines overbought and oversold signals by adjusting to the current market structure.
With the new enhancements, such as a manual alpha input, noise filtering, divergence detection, and multiple buy/sell signal options, the indicator offers even greater flexibility and precision for traders. This combination improves the standard RSI by making it more adaptive and responsive to market changes.
Originality
This indicator is unique because it applies FRAMA's adaptive smoothing technique to RSI, creating a dynamic momentum oscillator that adjusts to different market conditions. Many traditional RSI-based indicators either use fixed smoothing methods like exponential moving averages or employ basic RSI calculations without adjusting for volatility.
This script stands out by integrating several elements, including the fractal dimension-based smoothing of FRAMA to reduce noise while retaining responsiveness, the use of Zero-Lag Moving Average smoothing to enhance trend sensitivity and reduce lag, divergence detection to highlight mismatches between price action and RSI momentum, a noise filter and manual alpha option to prevent minor fluctuations from generating false signals, customizable buy/sell signal options that let traders choose between ZLMA-based or FRAMA RSI-based signals, an internal stats table displaying real-time FRAMA calculations such as fractal dimension and the adaptive alpha factor, and a fully customizable bar coloring system to visually distinguish bullish, bearish, and neutral conditions.
Features
Adaptive FRAMA RSI
The indicator applies FRAMA to RSI values, making the momentum oscillator adaptive to volatility while filtering out noise. Unlike a traditional RSI that reacts equally to all price movements, FRAMA RSI adjusts its smoothing factor based on market structure, making it more effective for identifying true momentum shifts.
Zero-Lag Moving Average (ZLMA)
A smoothing technique that minimizes lag while preserving the responsiveness of price movements. It is applied to the FRAMA RSI to further refine signals and ensure smoother trend detection.
Bullish and Bearish Threshold Crossovers
This system compares FRAMA RSI to a user-defined threshold (default is 50). When FRAMA RSI moves above the threshold, it indicates bullish momentum, while movement below signals bearish conditions. The enhanced noise filter ensures that only significant moves trigger signals.
Noise Filter and Manual Alpha
A new noise filter input prevents tiny fluctuations from triggering false signals. In addition, a manual alpha option allows traders to override the automatically computed smoothing factor with a custom value, providing extra control over the indicator’s sensitivity.
Divergence Detection
The indicator identifies divergence patterns by comparing FRAMA RSI pivots to price action. Bullish divergence occurs when price makes a lower low while FRAMA RSI makes a higher low, and bearish divergence occurs when price makes a higher high while FRAMA RSI makes a lower high. These signals can help traders anticipate potential reversals.
Reversal Signals
Labels appear on the chart when FRAMA RSI confirms classic RSI overbought (70) or oversold (30) conditions, providing visual cues for potential trend reversals.
Buy and Sell Signal Options
Traders can now choose between two signal-generation methods. ZLMA-based signals trigger when the ZLMA of FRAMA RSI crosses key overbought (70) or oversold (30) levels, while FRAMA RSI-based signals trigger when FRAMA RSI itself crosses these levels. This added flexibility allows users to tailor the indicator to their preferred trading style.
ZLMA:
FRAMA:
Customizable Alerts
Alerts notify traders when FRAMA RSI crosses key levels, divergence signals occur, reversal conditions are met, or buy/sell signals trigger. This ensures that important trading events are not missed.
Fully Customizable Bar Coloring System
Users can color bars based on different conditions, enhancing visual clarity. Bar coloring modes include: FRAMA RSI threshold (bars change color based on whether FRAMA RSI is above or below the threshold), ZLMA crossover (bars change when ZLMA crosses overbought or oversold levels), buy/sell signals (bars change when official signals trigger), divergence (bars highlight when bullish or bearish divergence is detected), and reversals (bars indicate when RSI reaches overbought or oversold conditions confirmed by FRAMA RSI). The system also remembers the last applied bar color, ensuring a smooth visual transition.
Input Parameters and Features
Core Inputs
RSI Length (default: 14) defines the period for RSI calculations.
FRAMA Lookback (default: 16) determines the length for the FRAMA smoothing function.
RSI Bull Threshold (default: 50) sets the level above which the market is considered bullish and below which it is bearish.
Noise Filter (default: 1.0) ensures that small fluctuations do not trigger false bullish or bearish signals.
Additional Features
Show Bull and Bear Alerts (default: true) enables notifications when FRAMA RSI crosses the threshold.
Enable Divergence Detection (default: false) highlights bullish and bearish divergences based on price and FRAMA RSI pivots.
Show Potential Reversal Signals (default: false) identifies overbought (70) and oversold (30) levels as possible trend reversal points.
Buy and Sell Signal Option (default: ZLMA) allows traders to choose between ZLMA-based signals or FRAMA RSI-based signals for trade entry.
ZLMA Enhancements
ZLMA Length (default: 14) determines the period for the Zero-Lag Moving Average applied to FRAMA RSI.
Visualization Options
Show Internal Stats Table (default: false) displays real-time FRAMA calculations, including fractal dimension and the adaptive alpha smoothing factor.
Show Threshold FRAMA Signals (default: false) plots buy and sell labels when FRAMA RSI crosses the threshold level.
How It Works
FRAMA Calculation
FRAMA dynamically adjusts smoothing based on the price fractal dimension. The alpha smoothing factor is derived from the fractal dimension or can be set manually to maintain responsiveness.
RSI with FRAMA Smoothing
RSI is calculated using the user-defined lookback period. FRAMA is then applied to the RSI to make it more adaptive to volatility. Optionally, ZLMA is applied to further refine the signals and reduce lag.
Bullish and Bearish Threshold Crosses
A bullish condition occurs when FRAMA RSI crosses above the threshold, while a bearish condition occurs when it falls below. The noise filter ensures that only significant trend shifts generate signals.
Buy and Sell Signal Options
Traders can choose between ZLMA crossovers or FRAMA RSI crossovers as the basis for buy and sell signals, offering flexibility in trade entry timing.
Divergence Detection
The indicator identifies divergences where price action and FRAMA RSI momentum do not align, potentially signaling upcoming reversals.
Reversal Signal Labels
When classic RSI overbought or oversold levels are confirmed by FRAMA RSI conditions, reversal labels are added on the chart to highlight potential exhaustion points.
Bar Coloring System
Bars are dynamically colored based on various conditions such as RSI thresholds, ZLMA crossovers, buy/sell signals, divergence, and reversals, allowing traders to quickly interpret market sentiment.
Alerts and Internal Stats
Customizable alerts notify traders of key events, and an optional internal stats table displays real-time calculations (fractal dimension, alpha value, and RSI values) to help users understand the underlying dynamics of the indicator.
Summary
The Uptrick: FRAMA Matrix RSI offers an enhanced approach to momentum analysis by combining RSI with adaptive FRAMA smoothing and additional layers of signal refinement. The indicator now includes adaptive RSI smoothing to reduce noise and improve responsiveness, Zero-Lag Moving Average filtering to minimize lag, divergence and reversal detection to identify potential turning points, customizable buy/sell signal options that let traders choose between different signal methodologies, a fully customizable bar coloring system to visually distinguish market conditions, and an internal stats table for real-time insight into FRAMA calculation parameters.
Whether used for trend confirmation, divergence detection, or momentum-based strategies, this indicator provides a powerful and adaptive approach to trading.
