Momentum Regression [BackQuant]Momentum Regression
The Momentum Regression is an advanced statistical indicator built to empower quants, strategists, and technically inclined traders with a robust visual and quantitative framework for analyzing momentum effects in financial markets. Unlike traditional momentum indicators that rely on raw price movements or moving averages, this tool leverages a volatility-adjusted linear regression model (y ~ x) to uncover and validate momentum behavior over a user-defined lookback window.
Purpose & Design Philosophy
Momentum is a core anomaly in quantitative finance — an effect where assets that have performed well (or poorly) continue to do so over short to medium-term horizons. However, this effect can be noisy, regime-dependent, and sometimes spurious.
The Momentum Regression is designed as a pre-strategy analytical tool to help you filter and verify whether statistically meaningful and tradable momentum exists in a given asset. Its architecture includes:
Volatility normalization to account for differences in scale and distribution.
Regression analysis to model the relationship between past and present standardized returns.
Deviation bands to highlight overbought/oversold zones around the predicted trendline.
Statistical summary tables to assess the reliability of the detected momentum.
Core Concepts and Calculations
The model uses the following:
Independent variable (x): The volatility-adjusted return over the chosen momentum period.
Dependent variable (y): The 1-bar lagged log return, also adjusted for volatility.
A simple linear regression is performed over a large lookback window (default: 1000 bars), which reveals the slope and intercept of the momentum line. These values are then used to construct:
A predicted momentum trendline across time.
Upper and lower deviation bands , representing ±n standard deviations of the regression residuals (errors).
These visual elements help traders judge how far current returns deviate from the modeled momentum trend, similar to Bollinger Bands but derived from a regression model rather than a moving average.
Key Metrics Provided
On each update, the indicator dynamically displays:
Momentum Slope (β₁): Indicates trend direction and strength. A higher absolute value implies a stronger effect.
Intercept (β₀): The predicted return when x = 0.
Pearson’s R: Correlation coefficient between x and y.
R² (Coefficient of Determination): Indicates how well the regression line explains the variance in y.
Standard Error of Residuals: Measures dispersion around the trendline.
t-Statistic of β₁: Used to evaluate statistical significance of the momentum slope.
These statistics are presented in a top-right summary table for immediate interpretation. A bottom-right signal table also summarizes key takeaways with visual indicators.
Features and Inputs
✅ Volatility-Adjusted Momentum : Reduces distortions from noisy price spikes.
✅ Custom Lookback Control : Set the number of bars to analyze regression.
✅ Extendable Trendlines : For continuous visualization into the future.
✅ Deviation Bands : Optional ±σ multipliers to detect abnormal price action.
✅ Contextual Tables : Help determine strength, direction, and significance of momentum.
✅ Separate Pane Design : Cleanly isolates statistical momentum from price chart.
How It Helps Traders
📉 Quantitative Strategy Validation:
Use the regression results to confirm whether a momentum-based strategy is worth pursuing on a specific asset or timeframe.
🔍 Regime Detection:
Track when momentum breaks down or reverses. Slope changes, drops in R², or weak t-stats can signal regime shifts.
📊 Trade Filtering:
Avoid false positives by entering trades only when momentum is both statistically significant and directionally favorable.
📈 Backtest Preparation:
Before running costly simulations, use this tool to pre-screen assets for exploitable return structures.
When to Use It
Before building or deploying a momentum strategy : Test if momentum exists and is statistically reliable.
During market transitions : Detect early signs of fading strength or reversal.
As part of an edge-stacking framework : Combine with other filters such as volatility compression, volume surges, or macro filters.
Conclusion
The Momentum Regression indicator offers a powerful fusion of statistical analysis and visual interpretation. By combining volatility-adjusted returns with real-time linear regression modeling, it helps quantify and qualify one of the most studied and traded anomalies in finance: momentum.

Price Lag Factor (PLF)📊 Price Lag Factor (PLF) for Crypto Traders: A Comprehensive Breakdown
The Price Lag Factor (PLF) is a momentum indicator designed to identify overextended price movements and gauge market momentum. It is particularly optimized for the crypto market, which is known for its high volatility and rapid trend shifts.
🔎 What is the Price Lag Factor (PLF)?
The PLF measures the difference between long-term and short-term price momentum and scales it dynamically based on recent volatility. This helps traders identify when the market might be overbought or oversold while filtering out noise.
The formula used in the PLF calculation is:
PLF = (Z-Long - Z-Short) / Stdev(PLF)
Where:
Z-long: Z-score of the long-term moving average (50-period by default).
Z-short: Z-score of the short-term moving average (14-period by default).
Stdev(PLF): Standard deviation of the PLF over a longer period (50-period by default).
🧠 How to Interpret the PLF:
1. Trend Direction:
Positive PLF (Green Bars): Indicates bullish momentum. The long-term trend is up, and short-term movements are confirming it.
Negative PLF (Red Bars): Indicates bearish momentum. The long-term trend is down, and short-term movements are consistent with it.
2. Momentum Strength:
PLF near Zero (±0.5): Low momentum; trend direction is not strong.
PLF between ±1 and ±2: Moderate momentum, indicating that the market is moving with strength but not in an overextended state.
PLF beyond ±2: High momentum (overbought/oversold), indicating potential trend exhaustion and a possible reversal.
📈 Trading Strategies:
1. Trend Following:
Bullish Signal:
Enter long when PLF crosses above 0 and remains green.
Confirm with other indicators like RSI or MACD to reduce false signals.
Bearish Signal:
Enter short when PLF crosses below 0 and remains red.
Use trend confirmation (e.g., moving average crossover) for better accuracy.
2. Reversal Trading:
Overbought Signal:
If PLF rises above +2, look for signs of bearish divergence or a reversal pattern to consider a short entry.
Oversold Signal:
If PLF falls below -2, watch for bullish divergence or a support bounce to consider a long entry.
3. Momentum Divergence:
Bullish Divergence:
Price makes a lower low while PLF makes a higher low.
Indicates weakening bearish momentum and a potential bullish reversal.
Bearish Divergence:
Price makes a higher high while PLF makes a lower high.
Signals weakening bullish momentum and a potential bearish reversal.
💡 Best Practices:
Combine with Volume:
Volume spikes during high PLF readings can confirm trend continuation.
Low volume during PLF extremes may hint at false breakouts.
Watch for Extreme Levels:
PLF beyond ±2 suggests overextended price action. Use caution when entering new positions.
Confirm with Other Indicators:
Use with Relative Strength Index (RSI) or Bollinger Bands to get a better sense of overbought/oversold conditions.
Overlay with a moving average to gauge trend consistency.
🚀 Why the PLF Works for Crypto:
Crypto markets are highly volatile and prone to rapid trend changes. The PLF's adaptive scaling ensures it remains relevant regardless of market conditions.
It highlights momentum shifts more accurately than static indicators because it accounts for changing volatility in its calculation.
🚨 Disclaimer for Traders Using the Price Lag Factor (PLF) Indicator:
The Price Lag Factor (PLF) indicator is designed as a technical analysis tool to gauge momentum and identify potential overbought or oversold conditions. However, it should not be relied upon as a sole decision-making factor for trading or investing.
Important Points to Consider:
Market Risk: Trading cryptocurrencies and other financial assets involves significant risk. The PLF may not accurately predict future price movements, especially during unexpected market events.
Indicator Limitations: No technical indicator, including the PLF, is infallible. False signals can occur, particularly in low-volume or highly volatile conditions.
Supplementary Analysis: Always combine PLF insights with other technical indicators, fundamental analysis, and risk management strategies to make informed decisions.
Personal Judgment: Traders should use their own discretion when interpreting PLF signals and never trade based solely on this indicator.
No Guarantees: The PLF is designed for educational and informational purposes only. Past performance is not indicative of future results.
Always perform thorough research and consider consulting with a professional financial advisor before making any trading decisions.
Uptrick: Reversal Matrix +Overview
The Uptrick: Reversal Matrix + is designed as a comprehensive tool that organizes market information in a visually intuitive way. It presents a variety of signals and data points on the chart, aiming to provide clarity about potential reversals, directional momentum, and the broader context surrounding price behavior. By consolidating numerous indicators and statistics into a single interface, it serves as a versatile companion for different trading styles and time horizons.
Purpose
This indicator offers a multifunctional approach to market analysis. It seeks to help users gain a more holistic view of current conditions rather than focusing on isolated data points. Its primary goal is to guide traders toward recognizing evolving market structures, shifts in buying or selling pressure, and periods where price movement may exhibit stronger or weaker momentum. Because it is designed for adaptive use, it can cater to fast, intraday styles or more deliberate, long-term strategies, depending on how the user configures it.
Originality and Uniqueness
The Reversal Matrix + stands out by merging various categories of market data into cohesive visuals and tables. While many indicators offer singular signals or straightforward buy/sell prompts, this script integrates numerous underlying components and displays them in organized panels. Each piece of data, from volume characteristics to volatility states, is contextualized. This multi-layered approach helps traders see more than just a single dimension of the market. Whether one is exploring short-term breakouts, potential traps, or broader market regimes, the tool accommodates multiple perspectives within a single framework.
Inputs
1. Sensitivity.
This setting allows you to choose different levels based on how frequently you would like signals to appear. Selecting a higher sensitivity may capture faster changes but can produce a greater number of signals. More moderate or smoother settings can be preferable for users looking for less frequent but potentially clearer indications of shifts.
2. Trading Style.
This option adapts the tool to match conservative, normal, or more aggressive preferences. When choosing a conservative style, the script attempts to filter out smaller fluctuations, while the aggressive style might highlight more potential turning points as they emerge.
3. Potential Signal Threshold Difference
This setting adjusts the sensitivity of potential reversal signals. A lower value means the script will highlight only the most distinct setups, filtering out weaker or borderline scenarios. A higher value makes the tool more receptive to subtle shifts, potentially flagging more frequent signals. It allows users to fine-tune how responsive the script is to early momentum changes, depending on their preferred level of signal strictness.
4. Table Positions (Optional).
There are inputs that let you decide the on-chart position of the tables. You can enable or disable these tables and choose where they appear (for instance, top-right or bottom-left), depending on how you want the data displayed alongside price bars.
Table and Its Position
When enabled, a large table, known as the Full Metrics Table, offers extensive details about various technical and behavioral metrics. You can place it anywhere on your chart layout for convenience. It is designed to give you a granular view of current conditions without overwhelming the main price candles themselves.
Another, smaller panel known as the Final Verdict Table can also be displayed at a user-chosen position. This panel simplifies the script’s internal assessments into broader verdicts or summaries, allowing for a quick read on the market’s status.
Features
Multi-Faceted Signal and Alert System.
The indicator continuously scans market activity, highlighting events such as sudden rises or drops, changes in volatility, and shifts in momentum. Users can configure an array of alerts that instantly notify them of these occurrences, reducing the need to constantly monitor the chart.
Candle Overlays and Fading Effects .
In addition to standard chart candles, the script offers visual cues by shading or coloring candles differently when it detects certain signals. The fading mechanism gradually diminishes the bar color of older signals so that recent ones are more noticeable. This helps keep the focus on current opportunities while retaining a historical context.
Contextual Market Synopsis .
Each time a candle closes, the tool updates a variety of behind-the-scenes checks. This process helps the user see whether the market remains within the same general state (trending, ranging, or reversing) or is shifting rapidly. It also adds clarity when conditions may be transitioning between bullish and bearish inclinations.
Adaptable Settings for Different Styles .
Since traders differ in their tolerance for rapid fluctuations, the script’s adjustable Sensitivity and Trading Style inputs provide a way to fine-tune how it reacts. Someone trading on shorter timeframes can opt for more frequent signals that capture subtle changes, whereas a position trader might lean toward smoother outputs that highlight only stronger, more sustained conditions.
Extended Data Analysis .
Beyond immediate buy/sell possibilities, the Reversal Matrix+ delivers comprehensive data to help users confirm or question a market stance. A wide range of volume, volatility, and price action elements are factored in, giving each signal additional context rather than a simple green or red highlight.
Final Verdict Summaries .
When the second table is enabled, it condenses key aspects of the indicator’s internal logic into straightforward statements. Rather than navigating multiple data rows, you can check if the market appears more stable or volatile, potentially bullish or bearish, and whether a reversal probability is deemed high or low.
Large-Scale Alert Coverage .
More than fifty specialized alerts focus on distinct aspects, enabling users to track everything from volume anomalies to momentum acceleration.
Specialized Color Schemes .
To assist in quickly spotting bullish or bearish tendencies, candles and background components may be tinted in line with the latest recognized conditions. This visual reinforcement makes it easier to decide if ongoing signals confirm a previous stance or suggest a change.
Buy/Sell Signals
A core function of the script is to present buy and sell indications on the chart, identifying moments when price momentum may be shifting in a meaningful way. These signals come in two varieties: potential reversals and confirmed reversals. Potential reversals appear sooner, providing an early heads-up that market behavior could be turning. Confirmed reversals require a stronger confluence of underlying conditions, aiming to reduce the likelihood of false starts.
Internally, the script examines multiple facets—such as momentum flow, changes in volatility, and volume characteristics—to determine when a potential transition is noteworthy enough to highlight as a signal. As soon as those conditions line up, the script applies distinct markers or shapes to the candles, making it easy to spot these pivotal points on the chart. In addition, each new signal is emphasized through color-based candle shading, while older signals gradually fade to keep attention on the most relevant opportunities.
Although these signals can function as standalone cues, many traders pair them with the script’s other outputs—such as the Full Metrics Table, the Final Verdict Table, and specialized alerts—to form a more complete perspective. For instance, a potential buy signal spotted in real time may gain extra weight if certain metrics in the table reflect a constructive market backdrop. Meanwhile, the final verdict can offer a succinct confirmation or contradiction to what the buy or sell signal suggests. By combining these elements, traders can pursue strategies that balance both immediacy and context, tailoring their entries and exits to their own tolerance for risk and time horizon.
These features collectively allow users to explore the market from multiple angles. Whether one seeks a deeper technical dive or simpler guidance, the indicator’s layered design aims to cater to a broad spectrum of trading approaches.

Color Heatmap
The indicator divides the combined score into four distinct sections, each representing one of the underlying momentum oscillators (RSI, VZO, MFI, and CCI). Bullish (greenish) colors indicate upward momentum, while bearish (grayish) colors suggest downward momentum.
Long/Short Signals
When the combined score drops below the oversold threshold (default is 26), a long signal (▲) is displayed on the chart, indicating a potential buying opportunity.
When the combined score exceeds the overbought threshold (default is 74), a short signal (▼) is shown, signaling a potential sell or short opportunity.
Higher Timeframe Analysis
If enabled, the indicator also plots a line representing the combined score for a higher timeframe. This can be used to align lower timeframe trades with the broader trend of a higher timeframe, providing added confirmation.
Signals for long and short entries are also plotted for the higher timeframe when its combined score reaches overbought or oversold levels.
🔶Purpose of Using Multiple Technical Indicators
The combination of RSI, VZO, MFI, and CCI in the Momentum Nexus Heatmap provides a comprehensive approach to analyzing market momentum by leveraging the unique strengths of each indicator. This multi-indicator method minimizes the limitations of using just one tool, resulting in more reliable signals and a clearer understanding of market conditions.
RSI (Relative Strength Index)
RSI contributes by measuring the strength and speed of recent price movements. It helps identify overbought or oversold levels, signaling potential trend reversals or corrections. Its simplicity and effectiveness make it one of the most widely used indicators in technical analysis, contributing to momentum assessment in a straightforward manner.
VZO (Volume Zone Oscillator)
VZO adds the critical element of volume to the analysis. By assessing whether price movements are supported by significant volume, VZO distinguishes between price changes that are driven by real market conviction and those that might be short-lived. It helps validate the strength of a trend or alert the trader to potential weakness when price moves are unsupported by volume.
MFI (Money Flow Index)
MFI enhances the analysis by combining price and volume to gauge money flow into and out of an asset. This indicator provides insight into the participation of large players in the market, showing if money is pouring into or exiting the asset. MFI acts as a volume-weighted version of RSI, giving more weight to volume shifts and helping traders understand the sustainability of price trends.
CCI (Commodity Channel Index)
CCI contributes by measuring how far the price deviates from its statistical average. This helps in identifying extreme conditions where the market might be overextended in either direction. CCI is especially useful for spotting trend reversals or continuations, particularly during market extremes, and for identifying divergence signals.

Relative Strength according to Oster (RSO)Overview:
Relative Strength according to Oster (RSO) is an innovative tool that redefines how traders assess an asset's market strength. Moving beyond traditional indicators, RSO offers a sophisticated and highly responsive measure of an asset's potential to continue performing well. By integrating groundbreaking methodologies, RSO equips traders with unparalleled insights into market dynamics, making it an essential tool for anyone looking to stay ahead in today's fast-paced trading environment.
Understanding RSL (Relative Strength according to Levy):
At its core, Relative Strength according to Levy (RSL) is a powerful concept rooted in the idea that an asset currently exhibiting strength is more likely to maintain or even enhance that strength in the future. RSL calculates this by comparing an asset's current price to its moving average, providing a clear picture of its relative performance over time. The further its value is above 1, the higher the market momentum and vice versa. This relationship to the moving average is crucial, as it indicates not just where the asset stands today but also its trajectory in the context of historical performance. The ability to identify assets that consistently outperform is a game-changer for traders, and RSL has long been a cornerstone in this pursuit.
RSO vs. Traditional RSL: A Leap Forward
The RSO takes the traditional RSL concept and propels it into new territory with its innovative correlation-based approach. This is where RSO truly shines, offering a unique and sophisticated analysis that goes far beyond the basics.
Why RSO is Revolutionary:

This groundbreaking feature ensures that the RSO is not just reactive to past performance but also predictive of how the asset might behave relative to the broader market, adding a layer of precision that is unparalleled in traditional strength indicators.
Superior Strength Option: With the RSO, traders have the option to include superior strength factors, adding another dimension of insight. This feature allows for more stable and reliable long-term signals. On the flip side, those who prefer a more dynamic trading style can opt to exclude this factor for more frequent, shorter-term signals. This level of customization is rare and sets the RSO apart as a truly adaptable tool.
Enhanced Market Insights: RSO’s correlation-based approach doesn’t just show how strong an asset is—it reveals how that strength is likely to develop in relation to the benchmark's underlying trends. This isn’t merely about comparing performance; it’s about understanding the asset’s potential trajectory in a much broader market context. Such insight is invaluable for making informed, strategic trading decisions.
Practical Application:
The RSO isn’t just innovative in theory; it’s designed for practical, real-world trading. Traders can set customized alerts based on RSO’s readings, ensuring they’re always aware of key buy or sell signals as they occur. The flexibility to include or exclude superior strength factors means that RSO can be tailored to fit any trading style, whether focused on long-term investments or short-term opportunities.
Conclusion:
In conclusion, the Relative Strength according to Oster (RSO) is more than just an indicator; it’s a breakthrough in market analysis. By integrating correlation adjustments and offering unparalleled customization options, RSO provides traders with insights that are both deeper and more actionable than ever before.

Uptrick: Universal Market ValuationIntroduction
Uptrick: Universal Market Valuation is created for traders who seek an analytical tool that brings together multiple signals in one place. Whether you focus on intraday scalping or long-term portfolio management, the indicator merges various well-known technical indicators to help gauge potential overvaluation, undervaluation, and trend direction. It is engineered to highlight different market dimensions, from immediate price momentum to extended cyclical trends.
Overview
The indicator categorizes market conditions into short-term, long-term, or a classic Z-Score style reading. Additionally, it draws on a unified trend line for directional bias. By fusing elements from traditionally separate indicators, the indicator aims to reduce “false positives” while giving a multidimensional view of price behavior. The indicator works best on cryptocurrency markets while remaining a universal valuation indicator that performs well across all timeframes. However, on lower timeframes, the Long-Term Combo input may be too long-term, so it's recommended to select the Short-Term Combo in the inputs for better adaptability.
Originality and Value
The Uptrick: Universal Market Valuation indicator is not just a simple combination of existing technical indicators—it introduces a multi-layered, adaptive valuation model that enhances signal clarity, reduces false positives, and provides traders with a more refined assessment of market conditions.
Rather than treating each included indicator as an independent signal, this script normalizes and synthesizes multiple indicators into a unified composite score, ensuring that short-term and long-term momentum, mean reversion, and trend strength are all dynamically weighted based on market behavior. It employs a proprietary weighting system that adjusts how each component contributes to the final valuation output. Instead of static threshold-based signals, the indicator integrates adaptive filtering mechanisms that account for volatility fluctuations, drawdowns, and momentum shifts, ensuring more reliable overbought/oversold readings.
Additionally, the script applies Z-Score-based deviation modeling, which refines price valuation by filtering out extreme readings that are statistically insignificant. This enhances the detection of true overvaluation and undervaluation points by comparing price behavior against a dynamically calculated standard deviation threshold rather than relying solely on traditional fixed oscillator bands. The MVRV-inspired ratio provides a unique valuation layer by incorporating historical fair-value estimations, offering deeper insight into market overextension.
The Universal Trend Line within the indicator is designed to smooth trend direction while maintaining responsiveness to market shifts. Unlike conventional trend indicators that may lag significantly or produce excessive false signals, this trend-following mechanism dynamically adjusts to changing price structures, helping traders confirm directional bias with reduced noise. This approach enables clearer trend recognition and assists in distinguishing between short-lived pullbacks and sustained market movements.
By merging momentum oscillators, trend strength indicators, volume-driven metrics, statistical deviation models, and long-term valuation principles into a single framework, this indicator eliminates the need for juggling multiple individual indicators, helping traders achieve a holistic market perspective while maintaining customization flexibility. The combination of real-time alerts, dynamic color-based valuation visualization, and customizable trend-following modes further enhances usability, making it a comprehensive tool for traders across different timeframes and asset classes.
Inputs and Features
• Calculation Window (Short-Term and Long-Term)
Defines how much historical data the indicator uses to evaluate the market. A smaller window makes the indicator more reactive, benefiting high-frequency traders. A larger window provides a steadier perspective for longer-term holders.
• Smoothing Period (Short-Term and Long-Term)
Controls how much the raw indicator outputs are “smoothed out.” Lower values reveal subtle intraday fluctuations, while higher values aim to present more robust, stable signals.
• Valuation Mechanism (Short Term Combo, Long Term Combo, Classic Z-Score)
Allows you to pick how the indicator evaluates overvaluation or undervaluation. Short Term Combo focuses on rapid oscillations, Long Term Combo assesses market health over more extended periods, and the Classic Z-Score approach highlights statistically unusual price levels.
Short-Term
• Determination Mechanism (Strict or Loose)
Governs the tolerance for labeling a market as overvalued or undervalued. Strict requires stronger confirmation; Loose begins labeling sooner, potentially catching moves earlier but risking more false signals.
Strict
Loose
• Select Color Scheme
Lets you choose the aesthetic style for your charts. Visual clarity can significantly improve reaction time, especially when multiple indicators are combined.
• Z-Score Coloring Mode (Heat or Slope)
Determines how the Classic Z-Score line and bars are colored. In Heat mode, the indicator intensifies color as readings move further from a baseline average. Slope mode changes color based on the direction of movement, making turning points more evident.
Classic Z-Score - Heat
Classic Z-Score - Slope
• Trend Following Mode (Short, Long, Extra Long, Filtered Long)
Offers various ways to compute and smooth the universal trend line. Short is more sensitive, Long and Extra Long are meant for extended time horizons, and Filtered Long applies an extra smoothing layer to help you see overarching trends rather than smaller fluctuations.
Short Term

Extra Long Term
Filtered Long Term
• Table Display
An optional feature that places a concise summary table on the chart. It shows valuation states, trend direction, volatility condition, and other metrics, letting you observe multi-angle readings at a glance.
• Alerts
Multiple alert triggers can be set up—for crossing into overvaluation zones, for abrupt changes in trend, or for high volatility detection. Traders can stay informed without needing to watch charts continuously.
Why These Indicators Were Merged
• RSI (Relative Strength Index)
RSI is a cornerstone momentum oscillator that interprets speed and change of price movements. It has widespread recognition among traders for detecting potential overbought or oversold conditions. Including RSI provides a tried-and-tested layer of momentum insight.
• Stochastic Oscillator
This oscillator evaluates the closing price relative to its recent price range. Its responsiveness makes it valuable for pinpointing near-term price fluctuations. Where RSI offers a broader momentum picture, Stochastic adds fine-tuned detection of short-lived rallies or pullbacks.
• MFI (Money Flow Index)
MFI assesses buying and selling pressure by incorporating volume data. Many technical tools are purely price-based, but MFI’s volume component helps address questions of liquidity and actual money flow, offering a glimpse of how robust or weak a current move might be.
• CCI (Commodity Channel Index)
CCI shows how far price lies from its statistically “typical” trend. It can spot emerging trends or warn of overextension. Using CCI alongside RSI and Stochastic further refines the valuation layer by capturing price deviation from its underlying trajectory.
• ADX (Average Directional Index)
ADX reveals the strength of a trend but does not specify its direction. This is especially useful in combination with other oscillators that focus on bullish or bearish momentum. ADX can clarify whether a market is truly trending or just moving sideways, lending deeper context to the indicator's broader signals.
• MACD (Moving Average Convergence Divergence)
MACD is known for detecting momentum shifts via the interaction of two moving averages. Its inclusion ensures the indicator can capture transitional phases in market momentum. Where RSI and Stochastic concentrate on shorter-term changes, MACD has a slightly longer horizon for identifying robust directional changes.
• Momentum and ROC (Rate of Change)
Momentum and ROC specifically measure the velocity of price moves. By indicating how quickly (or slowly) price is changing compared to previous bars, they help confirm whether a trend is gathering steam, losing it, or is in a transitional stage.
• MVRV-Inspired Ratio
Drawn loosely from the concept of comparing market value to some underlying historical or fair-value metric, an MVRV-style ratio can help identify if an asset is trading above or below a considered norm. This additional viewpoint on valuation goes beyond simple price-based oscillations.
• Z-Score
Z-Score interprets how many standard deviations current prices deviate from a central mean. This statistical measure is often used to identify extreme conditions—either overly high or abnormally low. Z-Score helps highlight potential mean reversion setups by showing when price strays far from typical levels.
By merging these distinct viewpoints—momentum oscillators, trend strength gauges, volume flow, standard deviation extremes, and fundamental-style valuation measures—the indicator aims to create a well-rounded, carefully balanced final readout. Each component serves a specialized function, and together they can mitigate the weaknesses of a single metric acting alone.
Summary
This indicator simplifies multi-indicator analysis by fusing numerous popular technical signals into one tool. You can switch between short-term and long-term valuation perspectives or adopt a classic Z-Score approach for spotting price extremes. The universal trend line clarifies direction, while user-friendly color schemes, optional tabular summaries, and customizable alerts empower traders to maintain awareness without constantly monitoring every market tick.
Disclaimer
The indicator is made for educational and informational use only, with no claims of guaranteed profitability. Past data patterns, regardless of the indicators used, never ensure future results. Always maintain diligent risk management and consider the broader market context when making trading decisions. This indicator is not personal financial advice, and Uptrick disclaims responsibility for any trading outcomes arising from its use.
WaveTrend Divergences, Candle Colouring and TP Signal [LuciTech]WaveTrend is a momentum-based oscillator designed to track trend strength, detect divergences, and highlight potential take-profit zones using Bollinger Bands. It provides a clear visualization of market conditions to help traders identify trend shifts and exhaustion points.
The WaveTrend Oscillator consists of a smoothed momentum line (WT Line) and a signal line, which work together to indicate trend direction and possible reversals. When the WT Line crosses above the signal line, it suggests bullish momentum, while crossing below signals bearish momentum.
Candle colouring changes dynamically based on WaveTrend crossovers. If the WT Line crosses above the signal line, candles turn bullish. If the WT Line crosses below the signal line, candles turn bearish. This provides an immediate visual cue for trend direction.
Divergence Detection identifies when price action contradicts the WaveTrend movement.
Bullish Divergence appears when price makes a lower low, but the WT Line forms a higher low, suggesting weakening bearish pressure.
Bearish Divergence appears when price makes a higher high, but the WT Line forms a lower high, indicating weakening bullish pressure.
Plus (+) Divergences are stronger signals that occur when the first pivot of the divergence happens at an extreme level—above +60 for bearish divergence or below -60 for bullish divergence. These levels suggest the market is overbought or oversold, making the divergence more significant.
Bollinger Band Signals highlight potential take-profit zones by detecting when the WT Line moves beyond its upper or lower Bollinger Band.
If the WT Line crosses above the upper band, it signals stretched bullish momentum, suggesting a possible pullback or reversal.
If the WT Line crosses below the lower band, it indicates stretched bearish momentum, warning of a potential bounce.
How It Works
The WaveTrend momentum calculation is based on an EMA-smoothed moving average to filter out noise and provide a more reliable trend indication.
The WT Line (momentum line) fluctuates based on market momentum.
The signal line smooths out the WT Line to help identify trend shifts.
When the WT Line crosses above the signal line, it suggests buying pressure, and when it crosses below, it indicates selling pressure.
Divergences are detected by comparing pivot highs and lows in price with pivot highs and lows in the WT Line.
A pivot forms when a local high or low is confirmed after a certain number of bars.
The indicator tracks whether price action and the WT Line are making opposite movements.
If a divergence occurs and the first pivot was beyond ±60, it is marked as a Plus Divergence, making it a stronger reversal signal.
Bollinger Bands are applied directly to the WT Line instead of price, identifying when the WT Line moves outside its volatility range. This helps traders recognize when momentum is overstretched and a potential reversal or retracement is likely.
Settings
Channel Length (default: 8) controls the period used to calculate the WT Line.
Average Length (default: 16) smooths the WT Line for better trend detection.
Divergences (on/off) enables or disables divergence plotting.
Candle colouring (on/off) applies or removes trend-based candle colour changes.
Bollinger Band Signals (on/off) toggles take-profit signals when the WT Line crosses the bands.
Bullish/Bearish colours allow customization of divergence and signal colours.
Interpretation
The WaveTrend Oscillator helps traders assess market momentum and trend strength.
Crossovers between the WT Line and signal line indicate potential trend reversals.
Divergences warn of weakening momentum and possible reversals, with Plus Divergences acting as stronger signals.
Bollinger Band Crosses highlight areas where momentum is overstretched, signaling potential profit-taking opportunities.
Uptrick Signal Density Cloud🟪 Introduction
The Uptrick Signal Density Cloud is designed to track market direction and highlight potential reversals or shifts in momentum. It plots two smoothed lines on the chart and fills the space between them (often called a “cloud”). The bars on the chart change color depending on bullish or bearish conditions, and small triangles appear when certain reversal criteria are met. A metrics table displays real-time values for easy reference.
🟩 Why These Features Have Been Linked Together
1) Dual-Line Structure
Two separate lines represent shorter- and longer-term market tendencies. Linking them in one tool allows traders to view both near-term changes and the broader directional bias in a single glance.
2) Smoothed Averages
The script offers multiple smoothing methods—exponential, simple, hull, and an optimized approach—to reduce noise. Using more than one type of moving average can help balance responsiveness with stability.
3) Density Cloud Concept
Shading the region between the two lines highlights the gap or “thickness.” A wider gap typically signals stronger momentum, while a narrower gap could indicate a weakening trend or potential market indecision. When the cloud is too wide and crosses a certain threshold defined by the user, it indicates a possible reversal. When the cloud is too narrow it may indicate a potential breakout.
🟪 Why Use This Indicator
• Trend Visibility: The color-coded lines and bars make it easier to distinguish bullish from bearish conditions.
• Momentum Tracking: Thicker cloud regions suggest stronger separation between the faster and slower lines, potentially indicating robust momentum.
• Possible Reversal Alerts: Small triangles appear within thick zones when the indicator detects a crossover, drawing attention to key moments of potential trend change.
• Quick Reference Table: A metrics table shows line values, bullish or bearish status, and cloud thickness without needing to hover over chart elements.
🟩 Inputs
1) First Smoothing Length (length1)
Default: 14
Defines the lookback period for the faster line. Lower values make the line respond more quickly to price changes.
2) Second Smoothing Length (length2)
Default: 28
Defines the lookback period for the slower line or one of the moving averages in optimized mode. It generally responds more slowly than the faster line.
3) Extra Smoothing Length (extraLength)
Default: 50
A medium-term period commonly seen in technical analysis. In optimized mode, it helps add broader perspective to the combined lines.
4) Source (source)
Default: close
Specifies the price data (for example, open, high, low, or a custom source) used in the calculations.
5) Cloud Type (cloudType)
Options: Optimized, EMA, SMA, HMA
Determines the smoothing method used for the lines. “Optimized” blends multiple exponential averages at different lengths.
6) Cloud Thickness Threshold (thicknessThreshold)
Default: 0.5
Sets the minimum separation between the two lines to qualify as a “thick” zone, indicating potentially stronger momentum.
🟪 Core Components
1) Faster and Slower Lines
Each line is smoothed according to user preferences or the optimized technique. The faster line typically reacts more quickly, while the slower line provides a broader overview.
2) Filled Density Cloud
The space between the two lines is filled to visualize in which direction the market is trending.
3) Color-Coded Bars
Price bars adopt bullish or bearish colors based on which line is on top, providing an immediate sense of trend direction.
4) Reversal Triangles
When the cloud is thick (exceeding the threshold) and the lines cross in the opposite direction, small triangles appear, signaling a possible market shift.
5) Metrics Table
A compact table shows the current values of both lines, their bullish/bearish statuses, the cloud thickness, and whether the cloud is in a “reversal zone.”
🟩 Calculation Process
1) Raw Averages
Depending on the mode, standard exponential, simple, hull, or “optimized” exponential blends are calculated.
2) Optimized Averages (if selected)
The faster line is the average of three exponential moving averages using length1, length2, and extraLength.
The slower line similarly uses those same lengths multiplied by 1.5, then averages them together for broader smoothing.
3) Difference and Threshold
The absolute gap between the two lines is measured. When it exceeds thicknessThreshold, the cloud is considered thick.
4) Bullish or Bearish Determination
If sma1 (the faster line) is above sma2 (the slower line), conditions are deemed bullish; otherwise, they are bearish. This distinction is reflected in both bar colors and cloud shading.
5) Reversal Markers
In thick zones, a crossover triggers a triangle at the point of potential reversal, alerting traders to a possible trend change.
🟪 Smoothing Methods
1) Exponential (EMA)
Prioritizes recent data for quicker responsiveness.
2) Simple (SMA)
Takes a straightforward average of the chosen period, smoothing price action but often lagging more in volatile markets.
3) Hull (HMA)
Employs a specialized formula to reduce lag while maintaining smoothness.
4) Optimized (Blended Exponential)
Combines multiple EMA calculations to strike a balance between responsiveness and noise reduction.
🟩 Cloud Logic and Reversal Zones
Cloud thickness above the defined threshold typically signals exceeding momentum and can lead to a quick reversal. During these thick periods, if the width exceeds the defined threshold, small triangles mark potential reversal points. In order for the reversal shape to show, the color of the cloud has to be the opposite. So, for example, if the cloud is bearish, and exceeds momentum, defined by the user, a bullish signal appears. The opposite conditions for a bullish signal. This approach can help traders focus on notable changes rather than minor oscillations.
🟪 Bar Coloring and Layered Lines
Bars take on bullish or bearish tints, matching the faster line’s position relative to the slower line. The lines themselves are plotted multiple times with varying opacities, creating a layered, glowing look that enhances visibility without affecting calculations.
🟩 The Metrics Table
Located in the top-right corner of the chart, this table displays:
• SMA1 and SMA2 current values.
• Bullish or bearish alignment for each line.
• Cloud thickness.
• Reversal zone status (in or out of zone).
This numeric readout allows for a quick data check without hovering over the chart.
🟪 Why These Specific Moving Average Lengths Are Used
Default lengths of 14, 28, and 50 are common in technical analysis. Fourteen captures near-term price movement without overreacting. Twenty-eight, roughly double 14, provides a moderate smoothing level. Fifty is widely regarded as a medium-term benchmark. Multiplying each length by 1.5 for the slower line enhances separation when combined with the faster line.
🟩 Originality and Usefulness
• Multi-Layered Smoothing. The user can select from several moving average modes, including a unique “optimized” blend, possibly reducing random fluctuations in the market data.
• Combined Visual and Numeric Clarity. Bars, clouds, and a real-time table merge into a single interface, enabling efficient trend analysis.
• Focus on Significant Shifts. Thick cloud zones and triangles draw attention to potentially stronger momentum changes and plausible reversals.
• Flexible Across Markets. The adjustable lengths and threshold can be tuned to different asset classes (stocks, forex, commodities, crypto) and timeframes.
By integrating multiple technical concepts—cloud-based trend detection, color coding, reversal markers, and an immediate reference table—the Uptrick Signal Density Cloud aims to streamline chart reading and decision-making.
🟪 Additional Considerations
• Timeframes. Intraday, daily, and weekly charts each yield different signals. Adjust the smoothing lengths and threshold to suit specific trading horizons.
• Market Types. Though applicable across asset classes, parameters might need tweaking to address the volatility of commodities, forex pairs, or cryptocurrencies.
• Confirmation Tools. Pairing this indicator with volume studies or support/resistance analysis can improve the reliability of signals.
• Potential Limitations. No indicator is foolproof; sudden market shifts or choppy conditions may reduce accuracy. Cautious position sizing and risk management remain essential.
🟩 Disclaimers
The Uptrick Signal Density Cloud relies on historical price data and may lag sudden moves or provide false positives in ranging conditions. Always combine it with other analytical techniques and sound risk management. This script is offered for educational purposes only and should not be considered financial advice.
🟪 Conclusion
The Uptrick Signal Density Cloud blends trend identification, momentum assessment, and potential reversal alerts in a single, user-friendly tool. With customizable smoothing methods and a focus on cloud thickness, it visually highlights important market conditions. While it cannot guarantee predictive accuracy, it can serve as a comprehensive reference for traders seeking both a quick snapshot of the current trend and deeper insights into market dynamics.
COT Trendfilter + SignalsCOT Trendfilter + Signals Indicator
Data Processing and Usage: The COT indicator processes Commitments of Traders (COT) data provided by the CFTC. Users can select from various participant groups, including Commercials, Large Speculators, and Small Speculators. However, it is important to note that the signal logic of the indicator is exclusively applicable to the net positions of Commercials. This is because Commercials tend to trade contrarily, meaning their trading decisions often run against the prevailing market trend.
Functionality of the Indicators
1. Cycle COT
The cCOT is an enhanced version of the classic RSI. It incorporates additional smoothing based on market vibrations, along with adaptive upper and lower bands based on cyclical memory. The cCOT uses the current dominant cycle length as input and highlights trading signals when the signal line crosses above or below the adaptive bands. Compared to the standard RSI, the cCOT responds more quickly to market movements.
For detailed information on the cCOT, please refer to Chapter 4 "Fine tuning technical indicators" in the book "Decoding the Hidden Market Rhythm, Part 1" by Lars von Thienen.
2. Adaptive Ultra-Smooth Momentum Indicator
The Adaptive Ultra-Smooth Momentum Indicator (CSI) provides an optimized momentum oscillator based on the current dominant cycle. It addresses three common issues with standard indicators: excessive false signals, signal delay, and the need for length adjustments. The CSI offers adaptive smoothing, zero delay, and accurate detection of turning points.
For further information about the CSI, please refer to Chapter 10 "Cycle Swing Indicator: Trading the swing of the dominant cycle" in the book "Decoding the Hidden Market Rhythm, Part 1" by Lars von Thienen.
Signals and Validation
The indicator generates various trading signals:
cCOT:
A buy signal is indicated by an airplane emoji (🛫), while a sell signal is marked by another airplane emoji (🛬).
COT Momentum:
A buy signal is shown by the symbol “∿” in green, while a sell signal is represented by the same symbol in red.
Standard COT Index (Willco):
A buy signal is depicted by a “B” (in green), while a sell signal is shown by an “S” (in red).
Additionally, the validity of the signals is checked. If a previous signal becomes invalid in the following week, it is marked with a gray “x,” indicating that these signals may not be reliable. Users can also switch between net positions, long, and short to analyze the most relevant data for them.
Background Color
The color in the channel can indicate the strength of the Commercials' long-term trend. A channel background color signals an active long-, short-term trend, while no color suggests that there is no clear long-term trend present.
Strange behavior
When only a sharp spike is displayed and the rest is flat, the length settings of the Cycle Length Index should be increased. This can occur when the length is too short, resulting in an unusual spike to properly generate the channel.

This sophisticated integration, underpinned by complex mathematical modeling, ensures that the "TrendGuard Pullback Indicators" script is not just a collection of indicators but a refined, cohesive system for strategic trading.
Integrated Analysis System: Trend Wave, Trend Pulse, and Trend Strength Identifier:
Trend Wave : Advanced Momentum Analysis
Calculation : Implements an advanced smoothing technique using a triple-layered Exponential Moving Average (EMA). This complex approach reduces market noise by refining the momentum tracking algorithm, thereby enhancing trend line smoothness.
Output : The output is visualized as a color-changing histogram, pivoting from green to red to indicate bullish and bearish momentum. This histogram is based on a scaled and adjusted Trend Wave value, providing a nuanced understanding of market momentum shifts.
Trend Pulse : Precision in Short-term Market Dynamics
Design : Contrasts a unique combination of high and low prices with their double EMA, diverging from standard closing price analysis. This results in a dynamic indicator sensitive to immediate market shifts.
Function : Acts as a vital complement to Trend Wave, offering fine-grained insights into short-term market behavior. It enhances the overall system by adding depth to the trend context set by the Trend Wave
Trend Strength Identifier: In-Depth Trend Viability Assessment Mechanism
Mechanism : Utilizes a sophisticated differential EMA strategy, comparing fast and slow EMA outputs. The script’s complexity extends beyond basic EMA differences, incorporating advanced trend/noise ratio calculations and trend quality assessments.
Indicator Dynamics : Generates a histogram that colors and positions itself based on the strength and direction of market trends, further informed by calculated trend quality metrics. It crucially differentiates between major trends and minor market noise.
System Synergy :
The three components are designed to operate in unison, forming an integrated trading system. Their interrelation is not merely additive but synergistic, where each element informs and enhances the others, making them indispensable to one another.
This interconnected functionality blends the indicators, as each component is tailored to contribute to a unified decision-making process, rather than functioning as standalone entities. The system's unique construction and its reliance on the interplay between its components underscore its distinctiveness and necessity for combined usage.
How to Trade with the "TrendGuard Pullback Trader Indicators"
Integration with "TrendGuard Pullback Signals" script :
The "TrendGuard Pullback Trader Indicators" script is an integral part of the "TrendGuard Pullback Trader" system, designed to operate in tandem with the "TrendGuard Pullback Trader Signals" script. This script amalgamates three sophisticated indicators, each contributing a unique perspective to market analysis.
This script, while useful as a standalone trading method, is one part of a two-part system. The “TrendGuard Pullback Trader Signals” script can be found below:
Integrated Trend Analysis: Aligning Wave, Pulse, and Strength :
Trend Wave & Trend Pulse Alignment : Look for moments when both the Trend Wave and Trend Pulse indicate a similar direction (both turning green for bullish or red for bearish). This alignment often marks the beginning of a new primary trend.
Confirmation with Trend Strength : Ensure that the Trend Strength histogram supports the new trend. A rising histogram above the lower threshold (white line) indicates growing trend strength.
Assessing Trend Strength and Potential Exhaustion :
Monitoring Threshold Lines : The upper (blue) and lower (white) threshold lines are crucial. When the Trend Strength histogram crosses these lines, it signals significant market conditions:
Above the Upper Threshold (Blue Line): Indicates a very strong trend but be cautious of potential trend exhaustion. A peak above this line may signal that the trend is overstretched.
Below the Lower Threshold (White Line): Suggests a weak or emerging trend, potentially signaling a trend reversal or consolidation phase.
Determining Trending or Ranging Market :
Above Lower Threshold : If the Trend Strength histogram consistently stays above the lower threshold, it suggests a trending market. Use this phase for trend-following strategies.
Below Lower Threshold : When the histogram frequently falls below this line, it may indicate a ranging or choppy market. In such conditions, consider adopting range-bound strategies or tightening stop losses.
Practical Application :
Entry Points : Trades can be initiated when there’s an alignment in Trend Wave and Pulse, coupled with supportive readings in Trend Strength. For instance, long positions during a green Trend Wave and Pulse, with the Trend Strength histogram rising above the lower threshold and vice versa for short entries.
Exit Points and Profit Taking : Consider exiting or taking profits when the Trend Strength crosses above the upper threshold, indicating potential trend exhaustion, especially if the trend strength histogram suddenly drops. Also, look for changes in the Trend Wave and Pulse for additional exit signals.
Alerts Setup : Utilize the provided alert features for key changes in the indicators, especially when the Trend Strength crosses threshold lines, to stay updated on significant market shifts.
Interpreting Indicator Interactions :
Refer to the accompanying images for visual examples of how these indicators interact and signal various market conditions. Understanding their synergy will enhance your ability to recognize key market phases and adjust your trading strategy accordingly.
The "TrendGuard Pullback Trader Indicators" script is intricately designed to be used in conjunction with the "TrendGuard Pullback Trader Signals" script, offering a cohesive and comprehensive trading strategy. Use both scripts together for a more robust trading method.
Adjustable Input Parameters
Each component in the script features customizable settings, designed to offer traders comprehensive control over the indicators. This flexibility allows for tailoring to specific trading styles, market conditions, and time frames. With options for adjusting visibility, selecting price types, modifying calculation lengths, and setting thresholds, these parameters ensure that the tool can be fine-tuned for a high degree of customization and precision, making it adaptable and effective for nearly all markets/symbols and time frames.
Important Usage Guidance: For seamless integration with its counterpart, the "TrendGuard Pullback Trader Signals" script, it's crucial to align the input parameter settings across both scripts. When adjusting values from their defaults, ensure that corresponding parameters in both scripts are identically set. This synchronization is key to achieving a cohesive and accurate representation on your charts.
Show Indicator Name (ShowName):
This parameter controls the display of the indicator's name on the chart. When enabled (`true`), it visually labels the indicator for ease of identification. Disabling (`false`) this feature offers a cleaner visual by removing the label.
Show Trend Wave Indicator (ShowTrendWave):
Activates or deactivates the Trend Wave indicator. When active (`true`), it displays a histogram based on the triple-layered exponential moving average (EMA) of the selected price type, providing a visual representation of market momentum trends. Deactivating (`false`) simplifies the chart by removing this histogram.
Trend Wave Price (TrendWavePrice):
Specifies the price data (close, open, high, low) used in calculating the Trend Wave. This choice affects how the Trend Wave responds to market movements, with each price type offering a different perspective on market momentum.
Trend Wave Length (TrendWaveLength):
Determines the overall calculation period for the triple-layered EMA in the Trend Wave, influencing its sensitivity. A higher value leads to a smoother, less volatile wave, focusing on longer-term market trends, whereas a lower value makes it more responsive to recent price actions.
Show Trend Pulse Indicator (ShowTrendPulse):
This parameter toggles the display of the Trend Pulse indicator, which analyzes the divergence between the current closing price and a double-EMA of a modified price average, providing insight into immediate market dynamics. Enabling (`true`) it adds this analysis to the chart, while disabling (`false`) removes it for focus on other trends.
Trend Pulse Length (TrendPulseLength):
Sets the length for the main double-EMA calculation in the Trend Pulse. A higher number smoothens the indicator, reducing sensitivity to minor price changes and highlighting more significant short-term trends.
Show Trend Strength Indicator (ShowTrendStrength):
Controls whether the Trend Strength indicator is displayed. This indicator uses a differential approach between fast and slow EMAs to assess the market's trend strength. Enabling it (`true`) provides a histogram view of the trend’s robustness, whereas disabling (`false`) omits this analysis.
Fast Average Length (FastAvgLen):
Specifies the period for the fast EMA in the Trend Strength indicator. Shorter periods make the EMA more sensitive to recent price changes, ideal for identifying new trend formations.
Slow Average Length (SlowAvgLen):
Determines the period for the slow EMA in the Trend Strength indicator. A longer period smoothens the EMA, useful for identifying sustained trend directions.
Threshold High (ThresholdHi):
This value sets a high threshold for the Trend Strength indicator. Values exceeding this threshold indicate a strong and established market trend, which can be critical for strategies focusing on trend continuity.
Threshold Low (ThresholdLow):
Defines a low threshold for the Trend Strength indicator. Values below this threshold suggest weak or emerging trends, signaling potential trend reversals or consolidations.
Threshold Trend (ThreshTrend):
Establishes a specific threshold within the Trend Strength indicator for identifying significant trends. Exceeding this threshold often suggests a trend with potential trading relevance.
Enable Threshold Low (ThresholdLowOnOff):
This option enables or disables the low threshold in the Trend Strength calculation. It allows traders to customize the indicator’s sensitivity to weaker trends.
Average Line (AvgLine):
Adjusts the period for an additional EMA line in the Trend Strength indicator. This line acts as a smoothing reference for the Trend Strength. This can also act as a threshold reference as when its below the ‘Threshold Low’ line this could identify sideways/choppy conditions.
Conclusion:
The "TrendGuard Pullback Trader Indicators" script provides a multidimensional analysis platform, combining in-depth momentum tracking, immediate market movement insights, and robust trend evaluation.
Remember, trading involves risk, and past performance is not indicative of future results.

Coppock Curve w/ Early Turns [QuantVue]The Coppock Curve is a momentum oscillator developed by Edwin Coppock in 1962. The curve is calculated using a combination of the rate of change (ROC) for two distinct periods, which are then subjected to a weighted moving average (WMA).
History of the Coppock Curve:
The Coppock Curve was originally designed for use on a monthly time frame to identify buying opportunities in stock market indices, primarily after significant declines or bear markets.
Historically, the monthly time frame has been the most popular for the Coppock Curve, especially for long-term trend analysis and spotting the beginnings of potential bull markets after bearish periods.
The signal wasn't initially designed for finding sell signals, however it can be used to look for tops as well.
When the indicator is above zero it indicates a hold. When the indicator drops below zero it indicates a sell, and when the indicator moves above zero it signals a buy.
While this indicator was originally designed to be used on monthly charts of the indices, many traders now use this on individual equities and etfs on all different time frames.
About this Indicator:
The Coppock Curve is plotted with colors changing based on its position relative to the zero line. When above zero, it's green, and when below, it's red. (default settings)
An absolute zero line is also plotted in black to serve as a reference.
In addition to the classic Coppock Curve, this indicator looks to identify "early turns" or potential reversals of the Coppock Curve rather than waiting for the indicator to cross above or below the zero line.
Give this indicator a BOOST and COMMENT your thoughts!
We hope you enjoy.
Cheers!

Power Play Signal Indicator [Masky18]Power Play Signal Indicator
The Power Play Signal Indicator is a sophisticated custom trading strategy designed to identify high-probability breakout and breakdown opportunities by combining consolidation detection, trend alignment, volume analysis, and relative strength ranking. Unlike simple mashups of existing indicators, this script integrates multiple technical concepts into a cohesive strategy that helps traders capitalize on market momentum with precision.
What Makes This Indicator Unique?
The PowerPlay Signal Indicator is not just a combination of existing indicators; it is a custom-built strategy that uses original logic to filter out low-probability setups and focus on high-quality trading opportunities. Here’s how it works:
Consolidation Detection:
The script identifies consolidation zones by analyzing price action over a user-defined period (default: 6 bars). It calculates the high, low, and midpoint of the consolidation range and ensures the price stays within a specified percentage range (default: 13%).
Consolidations are classified as Tight, Loose, or Okay, helping traders gauge the strength of the potential breakout or breakdown.
Breakout & Breakdown Logic:
Breakouts and breakdowns are confirmed using a combination of:
Price Action: The script checks if the price closes above the consolidation high (breakout) or below the consolidation low (breakdown).
Volume Analysis: A significant volume spike (default: 20% increase) is required to confirm the move.
MACD & Moving Averages: The script uses MACD and moving averages (50-day and 200-day) to ensure the breakout/breakdown aligns with the prevailing trend.
Trend Alignment:
The script ensures trades are aligned with the long-term trend by using:
50-day SMA and 200-day SMA to confirm uptrends or downtrends.
150-day SMA as an additional filter to ensure the trend is strong.
52-week high/low conditions to ensure the price is in a favorable position relative to its historical range.
Relative Strength Ranking:
The script compares the asset’s performance against a benchmark asset (e.g., SPY) to ensure it is outperforming the market. This is done using a customizable Relative Strength (RS) Threshold (default: 70).
Golden Candle Signals:
For high-probability setups, the script identifies Golden Candles—strong breakout or breakdown candles with:
Large price movement (default: 7.5% to 12.5% candle size).
High volume (default: 2x the average consolidation volume).
Alignment with MACD and moving averages.
Risk Management:
The script provides stop loss, trailing stop, and take profit levels based on:
ATR (Average True Range): Dynamic stop loss levels are calculated using ATR (default: 14-period ATR with a 2x multiplier).
Trailing Stop Percentage: User-defined trailing stop (default: 2%).
Take Profit Percentage: User-defined take profit (default: 5%).
Performance Tracking:
The script includes a Performance Table that tracks:
Total breakouts and breakdowns.
Successful and failed trades.
Win rates for breakouts and breakdowns.
Golden candle signals.
How Does It Work?
The PowerPlay Signal Indicator combines the following key components to generate signals:
Consolidation Detection:
The script calculates the high, low, and midpoint of the consolidation range over a user-defined period.
It ensures the price stays within a specified percentage range (default: 13%) to confirm consolidation.
Breakout/Breakdown Confirmation:
A breakout is confirmed when:
The price closes above the consolidation high.
Volume increases by at least 20%.
MACD is positive and above the signal line.
The price is above the 50-day and 200-day SMAs.
A breakdown is confirmed when:
The price closes below the consolidation low.
Volume increases by at least 20%.
MACD is negative and below the signal line.
The price is below the 50-day and 200-day SMAs.
Golden Candle Signals:
Golden Candles are identified when:
The candle size is between 7.5% and 12.5%.
Volume is at least 2x the average consolidation volume.
The candle aligns with the prevailing trend and MACD.
Risk Management:
Stop loss levels are calculated using ATR (default: 14-period ATR with a 2x multiplier).
Trailing stop and take profit levels are based on user-defined percentages.
How to Use the Indicator
Input Parameters:
Consolidation Periods: Set the number of bars to analyze for consolidation (default: 6).
Maximum Consolidation Range: Define the maximum percentage range for consolidation (default: 13%).
Stop Loss Factor: Adjust the stop loss multiplier based on the midpoint of the consolidation range (default: 0.985).
RS Threshold: Set the relative strength threshold for trend alignment (default: 70).
Comparison Asset: Enable comparison with a benchmark asset (e.g., SPY) to ensure the asset is outperforming the market.
Trailing Stop Percentage: Set the trailing stop percentage (default: 2%).
Take Profit Percentage: Set the take profit percentage (default: 5%).
Time Exit Bars: Define the maximum number of bars to hold a trade (default: 10).
Interpreting Signals:
Breakout Signal: A green label ("BO") appears when a breakout is detected.
Breakdown Signal: A red label ("BD") appears when a breakdown is detected.

ZenAlgo - QZenAlgo - Q
Description
ZenAlgo - Q is an oscillator based on the QQE (Quantitative Qualitative Estimation) method. This version incorporates refinements for additional visualization and interpretation options. It is designed to help traders observe momentum changes and divergence patterns in price movements.
Key Features
QQE-Based Calculation : Derived from the open-source QQE script by Glaz (Metastock Version of QQE), with modifications for alternative visualization.
Dual RSI-Based Analysis : Uses two RSI calculations to provide additional context on price movements.
Adaptive Trend Bands : Adjust dynamically based on the market conditions.
Divergence Identification : Highlights potential differences between price action and oscillator movement.
Dynamic Color Coding : Displays histogram bars to illustrate shifts in oscillator values.
Configurable Alerts : Enables notifications for specific oscillator conditions.
How It Works
The indicator calculates a smoothed RSI-based oscillator that tracks the relative strength of price movement. It applies an exponential moving average (EMA) smoothing to reduce noise while maintaining responsiveness.
Two adaptive bands are calculated using a variation of the QQE method, which helps define dynamic overbought and oversold conditions.
The histogram bars shift in color based on the position of the oscillator relative to the bands. Lighter shades indicate weaker momentum, while stronger momentum is represented by more saturated colors.
The script also includes a secondary RSI component, which provides an additional layer of analysis. This secondary RSI helps refine momentum trends by smoothing out short-term fluctuations.
Divergence identification is built-in, highlighting where price action deviates from oscillator readings. Bullish divergence occurs when price forms a lower low while the oscillator forms a higher low, and bearish divergence is identified when price forms a higher high while the oscillator forms a lower high.
The indicator does not generate buy or sell signals but instead provides contextual information that can be used alongside other trading strategies.
Use Cases
Trend Observation : Traders can use the histogram to observe whether momentum is strengthening or weakening over time. A shift in color can indicate a potential change in trend strength.
Divergence Analysis : By comparing oscillator divergence with price movement, traders can identify situations where price action may be losing momentum. Divergences do not guarantee reversals but can serve as an early warning to re-evaluate positions.
Momentum Tracking : The dual RSI structure allows users to monitor both short-term and long-term momentum. When both RSI components are aligned, it suggests a more stable trend, while divergence between them may indicate potential consolidation or trend shifts.
Supplementary Analysis : This indicator is best used as a supporting tool alongside volume-based or trend-following indicators. It helps visualize underlying price behavior but should not be used in isolation for decision-making.
Market Context Interpretation : The combination of adaptive bands and histogram visualization allows traders to assess how recent price action compares to historical movement, helping to place current conditions in a broader market context.

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.
Overview: The Xtrender and TSI Fusion Indicator is a powerful tool designed to help traders analyze market momentum, trends, and potential reversals. By combining Xtrender with the True Strength Index (TSI), this indicator provides a comprehensive view of market dynamics, making it easier to identify trading opportunities.
Image: Timeframe is set to daily
Features:
1.Xtrender Analysis:
Short-Term Xtrender: Visualizes short-term momentum using RSI-based calculations on EMA differences. This helps in identifying immediate market trends and pullbacks.
Image above: showcases Short-Term Xtrender
Xtrender T3: A smoothed version of the Xtrender that reduces noise and highlights significant trend changes.
Image above: showcases Xtrender T3 with Xtrender T3 color
2.TSI (True Strength Index):
TSI Value: Measures momentum by comparing price changes over two time periods, offering a clear view of trend strength.
TSI Signal Line: A smoothed version of the TSI value, used to generate buy and sell signals when crossed by the TSI.
Image: showcases TSI Value with TSI Signal Line
TSI Histogram: Shows the difference between the TSI and its signal line, highlighting potential reversals and trend continuations.

3.Color Coding and Visual Cues:
Trend Colors: The indicator uses dynamic colors to represent bullish or bearish conditions, making it easy to interpret market sentiment.
Background Color : The background changes color based on TSI signals, further aiding in visual trend analysis.
Image: showcases Background color and Zero line
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.
Image above: Timeframe on daily with the individual elements combined
Example of Use:
•Trend Confirmation: Use the Xtrender and Xtrender T3 to confirm the direction of the trend. If both are aligned with the same color and direction, it increases the probability of a strong trend.
•Momentum Reversals: Watch for TSI crosses and histogram shifts to identify potential reversals. For example, a TSI crossover above its signal line with a corresponding change in the histogram from negative to positive could signal a buying opportunity.
•Pullbacks: Identify pullbacks within a trend by observing temporary shifts in the short-term Xtrender or TSI histogram. Use these signals to enter trades in the direction of the overall trend.
Image above: Showcases, Trend confirmation, reversal and pullbacks on daily timeframe.
Customization:
•TSI Speed: Choose between "Fast" and "Slow" TSI settings based on your trading style. Fast settings are more responsive to price changes, while slow settings offer smoother signals.
•Color Settings: Customize the colors for bullish, bearish, and neutral TSI conditions to match your personal preferences or chart theme.
This indicator is versatile and can be used for various trading strategies, from trend following to momentum trading, making it a valuable tool in any trader's arsenal.
My Scripts/Indicators/Ideas /Systems that I share are only for educational purposes
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!)
QZMOM & ADX PRO+The Momentum Squeeze Indicator is a momentum oscillator that indicates how explosively the price will move. Its first known version was called "TTM Squeeze" by John Carter explained in his book "Mastering the Trade" (chapter 11) and popularized in TradingView by a developer named LazyBear.
The black crosses on the center line show that the market has just entered a consolidation. This means low volatility, the market is preparing for an explosive move (up or down). The gray crosses mean the "Squeeze". Carter suggests waiting until the first gray after a black cross and taking a position in the direction of the oscillator. For its part, LazyBear recommends using an additional indicator such as ADX to improve the effectiveness of entry points and position closures.
Oscillator understanding improvements:
During the indicator creation process we were able to better understand the logic of the oscillator and based on that knowledge we implemented improvements.
Oscillator development improvements:
Side panel:
The ADX algorithm was incorporated, which is displayed numerically on the right panel of the indicator, shows the value of ADX and its directionality.
Added an arrow pointer to indicate oscillator directionality.
Two exponential moving averages of 11 and 55 periods have been added to the right panel, this will mark if the trend is bullish or bearish depending on the crossover of the EMAs.
An indicator of the Indicator Squeeze was also included, which marks the periods of price consolidation (OFF) and the periods in which the price should react explosively.
Added a feature that allows automatic color changing of the panels based on the color of the oscillator and the ADX.
o ADX: Dark green (bullish force).
o ADX: Light green (loss of bullish strength).
o ADX: Dark red (bearish force).
o ADX: Light red (loss of bearish strength).
o ADX: Orange (loss of strength, disinterest and low volume).
Signs:
A very famous strategy that we have learned is that of the trading expert Jaime Merino, who by combining the Momentum Squeeze Indicator and a ADX común, logró vincular eficientemente la debilidad del ADX con el inicio de un momentum alcista o bajista. La parametrización de su estrategia se señaló en alertas de compra y venta, que se representan de la siguiente manera:
B (Comprar): se activa cuando un movimiento bajista marcado por el ADX (pendiente negativa) termina y el oscilador toma direccionalidad alcista (impulso alcista).
S (Vender): se activa cuando un movimiento alcista marcado por el ADX (pendiente negativa) termina y el oscilador toma direccionalidad bajista (momentum bajista).
Filter:
To prevent any trader from trading against the trend, a filter was added that limits bearish entry alerts when the trend is up and vice versa, that is, when the EMA 10 is above the EMA 55, it is understood that the trend is up in that time frame, therefore bearish entry alerts will not be triggered. It will be the decision of each trader to activate or deactivate this function.
Alerts:
This is without a doubt the most awaited function for all Latin American traders, (Just kidding), but being aware, I am very proud of the implementation of alerts for each improvement made to this indicator, if you decide to use the Momentum Squeeze Indicator you can automate alerts for the following actions:
Buy and sell alerts.
Alerts to activate the Squeeze to (ON).
Oscillator quadrant change alerts
or bullish momentum.
or bearish momentum.
o Bullish force.
o Bearish force.
Recommendations:
One of the things that became clearer in the development of this indicator is the coloring of the dials, which is why we recommend the use of four colors, one for each oscillator grid.
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.
Top Goon X
Momentum based indicator
various signals for various parameters
bull/bear divergence will be seen as the dots with blue being bearish and yellow being bullish
the red X and green + are top and bottom signals per TGX
white flag appears respectably on top and bottom when all parameters are met bullshly or bearishly
Watch for TGX to reset while it rest just under resistance for a bullish set up
or
for TGX to run while sitting on top of support for bearish set up
TGX will trend in the upper parallel when bullish and bottom when bearish
towards the end of the trend is when you will see TGX "reset" for one last push up, albeit that push can run as long as it the market wants
