Enhanced Momentum Divergence Radar+ [Alpha Extract]Enhanced Momentum Divergence Radar+
The AE's Enhanced Momentum Divergence Radar+ is designed to detect momentum shifts and divergence patterns, helping traders identify potential trend reversals and continuation points. By normalizing momentum readings and applying divergence detection, it enhances market timing for entries and exits.
🔶 CALCULATION
The indicator calculates normalized momentum using a combination of Detrended Price Oscillator (DPO) and volatility-adjusted smoothing techniques. It highlights overbought and oversold conditions while identifying bullish and bearish divergences.
Core Calculation:
ATR-based volatility adjustment ensures dynamic sensitivity.
DPO is derived from the price minus a simple moving average (SMA) to isolate cyclical movements.
Momentum score is normalized using historical max values for consistent scaling.
Thresholds are dynamically adjusted based on average absolute momentum.
dpo = close - ma
sd = (dpo / volatility) * 100
normalizedSD = sd / maxAbsSD
The momentum score is plotted as a histogram, where:
Green bars indicate strong upward momentum.
Red bars indicate strong downward momentum.
Neutral values fade into gray.
🔶 DETAILS
📊 Visual Features:
Histogram bars dynamically color-coded based on momentum strength.
Threshold bands provide reference points for overbought and oversold levels.
Divergence markers (Bullish/Bearish & Hidden Bullish/Bearish) highlight key reversal signals.
🛠 How Divergences Work:
Bullish Divergence (𝓞𝓢): Price makes a lower low while momentum makes a higher low.
Bearish Divergence (𝓞𝓑): Price makes a higher high while momentum makes a lower high.
Hidden Divergences confirm trend continuations rather than reversals.
📌 Example of Divergence Logic:
bullishDiv = (low == priceLow) and (sd > momentumLow)
bearishDiv = (high == priceHigh) and (sd < momentumHigh)
🔶 EXAMPLES
📍 The chart below illustrates price reacting to momentum divergences, identifying potential tops and bottoms before major price moves.

Kernel Regression Envelope with SMI OscillatorThis script combines the predictive capabilities of the **Nadaraya-Watson estimator**, implemented by the esteemed jdehorty (credit to him for his excellent work on the `KernelFunctions` library and the original Nadaraya-Watson Envelope indicator), with the confirmation strength of the **Stochastic Momentum Index (SMI)** to create a dynamic trend reversal strategy. The core idea is to identify potential overbought and oversold conditions using the Nadaraya-Watson Envelope and then confirm these signals with the SMI before entering a trade.
**Understanding the Nadaraya-Watson Envelope:**
The Nadaraya-Watson estimator is a non-parametric regression technique that essentially calculates a weighted average of past price data to estimate the current underlying trend. Unlike simple moving averages that give equal weight to all past data within a defined period, the Nadaraya-Watson estimator uses a **kernel function** (in this case, the Rational Quadratic Kernel) to assign weights. The key parameters influencing this estimation are:
* **Lookback Window (h):** This determines how many historical bars are considered for the estimation. A larger window results in a smoother estimation, while a smaller window makes it more reactive to recent price changes.
* **Relative Weighting (alpha):** This parameter controls the influence of different time frames in the estimation. Lower values emphasize longer-term price action, while higher values make the estimator more sensitive to shorter-term movements.
* **Start Regression at Bar (x\_0):** This allows you to exclude the potentially volatile initial bars of a chart from the calculation, leading to a more stable estimation.
The script calculates the Nadaraya-Watson estimation for the closing price (`yhat_close`), as well as the highs (`yhat_high`) and lows (`yhat_low`). The `yhat_close` is then used as the central trend line.
**Dynamic Envelope Bands with ATR:**
To identify potential entry and exit points around the Nadaraya-Watson estimation, the script uses **Average True Range (ATR)** to create dynamic envelope bands. ATR measures the volatility of the price. By multiplying the ATR by different factors (`nearFactor` and `farFactor`), we create multiple bands:
* **Near Bands:** These are closer to the Nadaraya-Watson estimation and are intended to identify potential immediate overbought or oversold zones.
* **Far Bands:** These are further away and can act as potential take-profit or stop-loss levels, representing more extreme price extensions.
The script calculates both near and far upper and lower bands, as well as an average between the near and far bands. This provides a nuanced view of potential support and resistance levels around the estimated trend.
**Confirming Reversals with the Stochastic Momentum Index (SMI):**
While the Nadaraya-Watson Envelope identifies potential overextended conditions, the **Stochastic Momentum Index (SMI)** is used to confirm a potential trend reversal. The SMI, unlike a traditional stochastic oscillator, oscillates around a zero line. It measures the location of the current closing price relative to the median of the high/low range over a specified period.
The script calculates the SMI on a **higher timeframe** (defined by the "Timeframe" input) to gain a broader perspective on the market momentum. This helps to filter out potential whipsaws and false signals that might occur on the current chart's timeframe. The SMI calculation involves:
* **%K Length:** The lookback period for calculating the highest high and lowest low.
* **%D Length:** The period for smoothing the relative range.
* **EMA Length:** The period for smoothing the SMI itself.
The script uses a double EMA for smoothing within the SMI calculation for added smoothness.
**How the Indicators Work Together in the Strategy:**
The strategy enters a long position when:
1. The closing price crosses below the **near lower band** of the Nadaraya-Watson Envelope, suggesting a potential oversold condition.
2. The SMI crosses above its EMA, indicating positive momentum.
3. The SMI value is below -50, further supporting the oversold idea on the higher timeframe.
Conversely, the strategy enters a short position when:
1. The closing price crosses above the **near upper band** of the Nadaraya-Watson Envelope, suggesting a potential overbought condition.
2. The SMI crosses below its EMA, indicating negative momentum.
3. The SMI value is above 50, further supporting the overbought idea on the higher timeframe.
Trades are closed when the price crosses the **far band** in the opposite direction of the trade. A stop-loss is also implemented based on a fixed value.
**In essence:** The Nadaraya-Watson Envelope identifies areas where the price might be deviating significantly from its estimated trend. The SMI, calculated on a higher timeframe, then acts as a confirmation signal, suggesting that the momentum is shifting in the direction of a potential reversal. The ATR-based bands provide dynamic entry and exit points based on the current volatility.
**How to Use the Script:**
1. **Apply the script to your chart.**
2. **Adjust the "Kernel Settings":**
* **Lookback Window (h):** Experiment with different values to find the smoothness that best suits the asset and timeframe you are trading. Lower values make the envelope more reactive, while higher values make it smoother.
* **Relative Weighting (alpha):** Adjust to control the influence of different timeframes on the Nadaraya-Watson estimation.
* **Start Regression at Bar (x\_0):** Increase this value if you want to exclude the initial, potentially volatile, bars from the calculation.
* **Stoploss:** Set your desired stop-loss value.
3. **Adjust the "SMI" settings:**
* **%K Length, %D Length, EMA Length:** These parameters control the sensitivity and smoothness of the SMI. Experiment to find settings that work well for your trading style.
* **Timeframe:** Select the higher timeframe you want to use for SMI confirmation.
4. **Adjust the "ATR Length" and "Near/Far ATR Factor":** These settings control the width and sensitivity of the envelope bands. Smaller ATR lengths make the bands more reactive to recent volatility.
5. **Customize the "Color Settings"** to your preference.
6. **Observe the plots:**
* The **Nadaraya-Watson Estimation (yhat)** line represents the estimated underlying trend.
* The **near and far upper and lower bands** visualize potential overbought and oversold zones based on the ATR.
* The **fill areas** highlight the regions between the near and far bands.
7. **Look for entry signals:** A long entry is considered when the price touches or crosses below the lower near band and the SMI confirms upward momentum. A short entry is considered when the price touches or crosses above the upper near band and the SMI confirms downward momentum.
8. **Manage your trades:** The script provides exit signals when the price crosses the far band. The fixed stop-loss will also close trades if the price moves against your position.
**Justification for Combining Nadaraya-Watson Envelope and SMI:**
The combination of the Nadaraya-Watson Envelope and the SMI provides a more robust approach to identifying potential trend reversals compared to using either indicator in isolation. The Nadaraya-Watson Envelope excels at identifying potential areas where the price is overextended relative to its recent history. However, relying solely on the envelope can lead to false signals, especially in choppy or volatile markets. By incorporating the SMI as a confirmation tool, we add a momentum filter that helps to validate the potential reversals signaled by the envelope. The higher timeframe SMI further helps to filter out noise and focus on more significant shifts in momentum. The ATR-based bands add a dynamic element to the entry and exit points, adapting to the current market volatility. This mashup aims to leverage the strengths of each indicator to create a more reliable trading strategy.

Volume-Enhanced Momentum Moving Average (VEMMA)Volume-Enhanced Momentum Moving Average (VEMMA)
Overview:
The Volume-Enhanced Momentum Moving Average (VEMMA) helps you spot market trends by combining momentum and volume as a moving average. This unique moving average adjusts itself based on the strength and activity of the market, giving you a clearer picture of what’s happening.
How It Works:
1. Key Settings (all of these are adjustable in the settings panel of the indicator):
◦ Base Length: Looks back over the last 50 days by default.
◦ Momentum Length: Uses the past 14 days to measure market strength.
◦ Volume Length: Uses the past 30 days to average trading volume.
◦ High/Low Thresholds: Considers RSI values above 70 as high momentum and below 30 as low momentum.
2. Momentum and Volume:
◦ Momentum: Calculated using the Relative Strength Index (RSI) to see if the market is gaining or losing strength.
◦ Volume: Average trading volume is calculated over the last 30 days to gauge trading activity.
3. VEMMA Calculation:
◦ For each of the past 50 days:
▪ Check Momentum: If RSI > 70, it’s high momentum; if RSI < 30, it’s low.
▪ Weight by Volume: High momentum days with high volume get more weight; low momentum days get less.
▪ Combine: Multiply the closing price by this weight and sum it up.
◦ Average: Divide the total by 50 to get the VEMMA value.
4. Visuals:
◦ Lines: Two lines, VEMMA1 (blue) and VEMMA2 (orange), show the adjusted moving averages.
◦ Colours: Background colors help you quickly spot high (green) and low (red) momentum periods.
How to Use:
• Spot Trends: Rising VEMMA lines suggest an uptrend; falling lines suggest a downtrend.
• Confirm Signals: When both VEMMA1 and VEMMA2 move together, it indicates a strong trend.
• Identify Reversals: Watch for background color changes from green to red or vice versa to catch potential trend reversals.
If the market has been strong and active, the VEMMA line will rise more sharply. If the market is weak and quiet, the line will be smoother.
Benefits:
• Integrated View: Combines market strength and trading activity for a fuller picture.
• Responsive: Adapts to significant market changes, highlighting key movements.
• Easy to Read: Clear visuals with color-coded backgrounds make interpretation simple.
Remember, just like any other indicator, this is not supposed to be used alone. Use it as part of your greater trading strategy. I do however believe it works exceptionally well for finding longer term trends early. The default VEMMA settings work very well as replacement for the EMA 200. Try it and see how it goes. Play around with the settings. Feedback appreciated.
Trend_Trader_WMA (Momentum)<---> Caution! This is first test version of indicator. I am ready to get more ideas+feedback to develop it more. <--->
The "Momentum_Trader_WMA" indicator is a versatile technical analysis tool designed to help traders identify potential trend changes and momentum shifts in the market. It combines multiple indicators and moving averages to provide a comprehensive view of price action and momentum.
Key Features:
Weighted Moving Averages (WMAs): The indicator calculates two different WMAs with user-defined lengths, providing a smoothed representation of price data.
Average True Range (ATR) Bands: ATR is used to calculate dynamic bands around the WMA Average. These bands can help traders gauge market volatility and potential breakout points. The color of the ATR bands can be seen as an early signal of trends or the continuation of current trends.
Commodity Channel Index (CCI): CCI is a momentum oscillator that measures the relative strength of price changes. The indicator calculates CCI values based on a user-defined period.
Exponential Moving Average (EMA) of CCI: An EMA of CCI is plotted to help identify trends and momentum shifts.
Color-Coded Bands: The ATR bands change colors based on CCI conditions, providing visual cues for potential trading opportunities. When ATR bands transition from narrow (indicating low volatility) to wide (indicating increased volatility), it can be seen as an early signal of a potential trend change or the continuation of the current trend.
Buy and Sell Signals: The indicator generates buy and sell signals based on crossovers of WMAs and CCI thresholds, making it easier for traders to identify entry and exit points.
Customizable Moving Averages: Traders can enable or disable different moving averages (e.g., SMA, EMA, WMA, RMA, VWMA, HMA) with various periods and colors to adapt the indicator to their trading preferences.
CCI Dot Alerts: Dots are displayed at the bottom of the chart based on CCI values, helping traders spot extreme CCI conditions.
How to Use:
Trend Identification: The WMAs and ATR bands can help identify the current trend direction and its strength. When the WMAs are in an uptrend (green) and the ATR bands widen, it may indicate a strong bullish trend. Conversely, when the WMAs are in a downtrend (red) and the ATR bands narrow, it may suggest a weakening bearish trend.
Momentum Confirmation: The CCI and its EMA provide insights into market momentum. Look for CCI crossovers above 100 for potential bullish momentum and below -100 for potential bearish momentum.
Buy and Sell Signals: Pay attention to the buy and sell signals generated by the indicator. Buy when the WMAs cross over and CCI crosses above 100. Sell when the WMAs cross under and CCI crosses below -100.
ATR Bands as Early Signals: The color changes in the ATR bands can be seen as early signals of trends or the continuation of current trends. Wide ATR bands may indicate increased volatility and potential trend changes, while narrow ATR bands suggest reduced volatility and potential trend continuation.
Moving Averages: Customize the indicator by enabling or disabling specific moving averages according to your preferred trading strategy.
CCI Dots: Use the CCI dots to identify extreme CCI conditions, which may indicate overbought or oversold market conditions.
PS:
Recommended to use Indicator with price action conecpts(eg. support and resistance) as they play important role in any market.
Buy and sell signals are not really accurate. I would personally look for trend shift in WMA middle line and confirmation from CCI dots at bottom. For example. If middle line turns green and within recent 3-4 candles (or next 3-4 candles) dots tunrns green also, that means momentum has been rised in the direction of bulls.
pls, take s/r concepts first when working. I am thinking to add more precise buy sell signal method to make it easier to trade.
Good luck with your trades :)
TVMC - Composite Indicator with Technical RatingsDescription:
The TVMC (Trend, Volume, Momentum, Composite) indicator is a powerful multi-component tool designed to provide traders with a comprehensive understanding of market conditions. By combining four essential technical analysis components—trend, momentum, volume, and volatility—this indicator offers clear and actionable insights to assist in decision-making.
Key Features:
1. Trend Component (TC):
* Based on MACD (Moving Average Convergence Divergence), this component analyzes the relationship between two exponential moving averages (fast and slow) to determine the prevailing market trend.
* The MACD signal is normalized to a range of -1 to +1 for consistency and clarity.
2. Momentum Component (MC):
* Utilizes RSI (Relative Strength Index) to measure the strength and speed of price movements.
* This component highlights overbought or oversold conditions, which may indicate potential market reversals.
3. Volume Confirmation (VC):
* Compares the current trading volume to its moving average over a specified period.
* High volume relative to the average confirms the validity of the current trend.
4. Volatility Filter (VF):
* Uses ATR (Average True Range) to gauge market volatility.
* Adjusts and smooths signals to reduce noise during periods of high volatility.
5. Technical Ratings Integration:
* Incorporates TradingView’s Technical Ratings, allowing users to validate signals using moving averages, oscillators, or a combination of both.

Nasan Rate of Change (ROC)**NOTE: FOR COMPARISON TRADITIONAL ROC IS PLOTTED WITH THE SAME ROC LENGTH OF 9. IT IS NOT PART OF THE INDICATOR"
The Nasan ROC indicator is smoothed version of the of the traditional ROC indicator. The Nasna ROC uses a triple pass moving average differencing strategy. A cumulative sum of the deviations obtained from the moving average differencing provides a smooth "noise free" trend and this cumulative sum of deviations is used for calculating ROC.
Let's break down the components and understand the indicator we discussed earlier:
Sequential Triple Pass Filter:
Three filters with lengths specified by length1, length2, and length3 are applied to the closing prices (close).
The filters involve calculating the cumulative sum of the differences between the closing prices and their respective moving averages.
The idea is to detrend the data and accumulate the deviations from the average over time, emphasizing longer-term trends.
Calculation of Rate of Change (ROC) of Cumulative Sum:
The Rate of Change (ROC) of the cumulative sum (rocCumulativeSum) is calculated using the ta.roc function with a specified length (rocLength).
ROC measures the percentage change in the cumulative sum over a specified period.
The ROC histogram provides insights into the momentum of the detrended series. Positive values suggest increasing momentum, while negative values suggest decreasing momentum.
Pay attention to the color of the histogram bars.
The histogram bars are colored green if the current ROC value is greater than or equal to the previous ROC value, and red otherwise.
This coloring is based on the concept that a positive ROC suggests upward momentum, while a negative ROC suggests downward momentum.
Volatility - Volume Impact:
The Average True Range (ATR) is calculated with a period of 14.
Volume strength is calculated as a factor (VCF) that considers the ratio of the simple moving average (SMA) of the current volume to the SMA of the volume over a longer period (144).
This volume factor (VCF) is then multiplied by ATR, creating a synergy with volatility and volume.
Visualization with Background Color Gradient:
A background color gradient is applied to the chart based on the calculated volume strength (f1).
The gradient color ranges from black (indicating low ATR and volume strength) to purple (indicating high ATR and volume strength). A low value indicates a ranging market with no significant price movements and it is safter to avoid signals generated from ROC histogram in these region.
Synergy of ROC and Volume Strength:
Observe how the ROC signals align with the background color gradient. For example, confirm whether positive ROC aligns with periods of high ATR and volume strength.
This synergy can provide confirmation or divergence signals, adding another layer of analysis.

Hybrid Adaptive Momentum Average (HAMA)Hybrid Adaptive Momentum Average (HAMA)
Imagine you want a moving average line on your chart that's usually smooth but gets really quick to follow the price when the market suddenly makes a big, fast move. That's what HAMA tries to be.
Here's the simple breakdown:
Slightly Better Starting Price: Instead of just using the closing price, HAMA first creates a slightly "smarter" starting price by giving a bit more importance to the very latest prices (like a quick WMA).
Checks Market Speed (Momentum): It then looks at how fast this "smarter price" has been moving recently.
-If the price is shooting up or down quickly, HAMA knows there's strong momentum.
-If the price is just drifting sideways, momentum is low.
Adjusts Its Own Speed: Based on this momentum:
-Strong Momentum (Fast Market): HAMA makes itself "faster." This means its line will stick closer to the current price and react quickly to changes. (It uses a shorter "period" internally).
-Weak Momentum (Slow/Choppy Market): HAMA makes itself "slower." Its line will be smoother and less jumpy, ignoring minor wiggles. (It uses a longer "period" internally).
-Draws the Line: Finally, it calculates and draws the moving average line using this automatically adjusted speed.
Why "Hybrid"?
It's called "hybrid" because it takes bits and pieces of ideas from several standard moving averages:
-Like an EMA, it's built to be responsive.
-Like a WMA, it initially focuses on recent prices.
-Inspired by the HMA, it tries to be smart about detecting momentum to adjust itself.
In a Nutshell:
The HAMA is a custom moving average that tries to be the best of both worlds: smooth in calm markets and quick to react in fast-moving markets by automatically changing its own calculation speed based on price momentum.
PhenLabs - Market Fluid Dynamics📊 Market Fluid Dynamics -
Version: PineScript™ v6
📌 Description
The Market Fluid Dynamics - Phen indicator is a new thinking regarding market analysis by modeling price action, volume, and volatility using a fluid system. It attempts to offer traders control over more profound market forces, such as momentum (speed), resistance (thickness), and buying/selling pressure. By visualizing such dynamics, the script allows the traders to decide on the prevailing market flow, its power, likely continuations, and zones of calmness and chaos, and thereby allows improved decision-making.
This measure avoids the usual difficulty of reconciling multiple, often contradictory, market indications by including them within a single overarching model. It moves beyond traditional binary indicators by providing a multi-dimensional view of market behavior, employing fluid dynamic analogs to describe complex interactions in an accessible manner.
🚀 Points of Innovation

🔧 Core Components
Velocity Component: Measures price momentum (first derivative of price), normalized by ATR. It indicates the speed and direction of price changes.
Viscosity Component: Represents market resistance to price changes, derived from ATR relative to its historical average. Higher viscosity suggests it’s harder for prices to move.
Pressure Component: Quantifies the force created by volume and price range (close - open), normalized by ATR. It reflects buying or selling pressure.
Turbulence Detection: Calculates a Reynolds number equivalent to identify market stability, ranging from laminar (stable) to turbulent (chaotic).
Main Flow Indicator: Combines the above components, applying sensitivity and smoothing, to generate a primary signal of market direction and strength.
🔥 Key Features
Advanced Smoothing Algorithm: Utilizes multiple EMA layers on the raw flow calculation for a fluid and responsive main flow line, reducing noise while maintaining sensitivity.
Gradient Flow Coloring: The main flow line dynamically changes color from light to deep blue for bullish flow and light to deep red for bearish flow, with intensity reflecting flow strength. This provides an immediate visual cue of market sentiment and momentum.
Turbulence Level Background: The chart background changes color based on calculated turbulence (from calm gray to vibrant orange), offering an intuitive understanding of market stability and potential for erratic price action.
Informative Dashboard: A customizable on-screen table displays critical metrics like Flow State, Flow Strength, Market Viscosity, Turbulence, Pressure Force, Flow Acceleration, and Flow Continuity, allowing traders to quickly assess current market conditions.
Configurable Lookback and Sensitivity: Users can adjust the base lookback period for calculations and the sensitivity of the flow to viscosity, tailoring the indicator to different trading styles and market conditions.
Alert Conditions: Pre-defined alerts for flow direction changes (positive/negative crossover of zero line) and detection of high turbulence states.
🎨 Visualization
Main Flow Line: A smoothed line plotted below the main chart, colored blue for bullish flow and red for bearish flow. The intensity of the color (light to dark) indicates the strength of the flow. This line crossing the zero line can signal a change in market direction.
Zero Line: A dotted horizontal line at the zero level, serving as a baseline to gauge whether the market flow is positive (bullish) or negative (bearish).
Turbulence Background: The indicator pane’s background color changes based on the calculated turbulence level. A calm, almost transparent gray indicates low turbulence (laminar flow), while a more vibrant, semi-transparent orange signifies high turbulence. This helps traders visually assess market stability.
Dashboard Table: An optional table displayed on the chart, showing key metrics like ‘Flow State’, ‘Flow Strength’, ‘Market Viscosity’, ‘Turbulence’, ‘Pressure Force’, ‘Flow Acceleration’, and ‘Flow Continuity’ with their current values and qualitative descriptions (e.g., ‘Bullish Flow’, ‘Laminar (Stable)’).
📖 Usage Guidelines
Setting Categories
Show Dashboard - Default: true; Range: true/false; Description: Toggles the visibility of the Market Fluid Dynamics dashboard on the chart. Enable to see key metrics at a glance.
Base Lookback Period - Default: 14; Range: 5 - (no upper limit, practical limits apply); Description: Sets the primary lookback period for core calculations like velocity, ATR, and volume SMA. Shorter periods make the indicator more sensitive to recent price action, while longer periods provide a smoother, slower signal.
Flow Sensitivity - Default: 0.5; Range: 0.1 - 1.0 (step 0.1); Description: Adjusts how much the market viscosity dampens the raw flow. A lower value means viscosity has less impact (flow is more sensitive to raw velocity/pressure), while a higher value means viscosity has a greater dampening effect.
Flow Smoothing - Default: 5; Range: 1 - 20; Description: Controls the length of the EMA smoothing applied to the main flow line. Higher values result in a smoother flow line but with more lag; lower values make it more responsive but potentially noisier.

✅ Best Use Cases
Trend Identification: Identifying the dominant market flow (bullish or bearish) and its strength to trade in the direction of the prevailing trend.
Momentum Confirmation: Using the flow strength and acceleration to confirm the conviction behind price movements.
Volatility Assessment: Utilizing the turbulence metric to gauge market stability, helping to adjust position sizing or avoid choppy conditions.
Reversal Spotting: Watching for divergences between price and flow, or crossovers of the main flow line above/below the zero line, as potential reversal signals, especially when combined with changes in pressure or viscosity.
Swing Trading: Leveraging the smoothed flow line to capture medium-term market swings, entering when flow aligns with the desired trade direction and exiting when flow weakens or reverses.
Intraday Scalping: Using shorter lookback periods and higher sensitivity to identify quick shifts in flow and turbulence for short-term trading opportunities, particularly in liquid markets.
⚠️ Limitations
Lagging Nature: Like many indicators based on moving averages and lookback periods, the main flow line can lag behind rapid price changes, potentially leading to delayed signals.
Whipsaws in Ranging Markets: During periods of low volatility or sideways price action (high viscosity, low flow strength), the indicator might produce frequent buy/sell signals (whipsaws) as the flow oscillates around the zero line.
Not a Standalone System: While comprehensive, it should be used in conjunction with other forms of analysis (e.g., price action, support/resistance levels, other indicators) and not as a sole basis for trading decisions.
Subjectivity in Interpretation: While the dashboard provides quantitative values, the interpretation of “strong” flow, “high” turbulence, or “significant” acceleration can still have a subjective element depending on the trader’s strategy and risk tolerance.
💡 What Makes This Unique
Fluid Dynamics Analogy: Its core strength lies in translating complex market interactions into an intuitive fluid dynamics framework, making concepts like momentum, resistance, and pressure easier to visualize and understand.
Market View: Instead of focusing on a single aspect (like just momentum or just volatility), it integrates multiple factors (velocity, viscosity, pressure, turbulence) to provide a more comprehensive picture of market conditions.
Adaptive Visualization: The dynamic coloring of the flow line and the turbulence background provide immediate, adaptive visual feedback that changes with market conditions.
🔬 How It Works
Price Velocity Calculation: The indicator first calculates price velocity by measuring the rate of change of the closing price over a given ‘lookback’ period. The raw velocity is then normalized by the Average True Range (ATR) of the same lookback period. Normalization enables comparison of momentum between assets or timeframes by scaling for volatility. This is the direction and speed of initial price movement.
Viscosity Calculation: Market ‘viscosity’ or resistance to price movement is determined by looking at the current ATR relative to its longer-term average (SMA of ATR over lookback * 2). The further the current ATR is above its average, the lower the viscosity (less resistance to price movement), and vice-versa. The script inverts this relationship and bounds it so that rising viscosity means more resistance.
Pressure Force Measurement: A ‘pressure’ variable is calculated as a function of the ratio of current volume to its simple moving average, multiplied by the price range (close - open) and normalized by ATR. This is designed to measure the force behind price movement created by volume and intraday price thrusts. This pressure is smoothed by an EMA.
Turbulence State Evaluation: A equivalent ‘Reynolds number’ is calculated by dividing the absolute normalized velocity by the viscosity. This is the proclivity of the market to move in a chaotic or orderly fashion. This ‘reynoldsValue’ is smoothed with an EMA to get the ‘turbulenceState’, which indicates if the market is laminar (stable), transitional, or turbulent.
Main Flow Derivation: The ‘rawFlow’ is calculated by taking the normalized velocity, dampening its impact based on the ‘viscosity’ and user-input ‘sensitivity’, and orienting it by the sign of the smoothed ‘pressureSmooth’. The ‘rawFlow’ is then put through multiple layers of exponential moving average (EMA) smoothing (with ‘smoothingLength’ and derived values) to reach the final ‘mainFlow’ line. The extensive smoothing is designed to give a smooth and clear visualization of the overall market direction and magnitude.
Dashboard Metrics Compilation: Additional metrics like flow acceleration (derivative of mainFlow), and flow continuity (correlation between close and volume) are calculated. All primary components (Flow State, Strength, Viscosity, Turbulence, Pressure, Acceleration, Continuity) are then presented in a user-configurable dashboard for ease of monitoring.
💡 Note:
The “Market Fluid Dynamics - Phen” indicator is designed to offer a unique perspective on market behavior by applying principles from fluid dynamics. It’s most effective when used to understand the underlying forces driving price rather than as a direct buy/sell signal generator in isolation. Experiment with the settings, particularly the ‘Base Lookback Period’, ‘Flow Sensitivity’, and ‘Flow Smoothing’, to find what best suits your trading style and the specific asset you are analyzing. Always combine its insights with robust risk management practices.
Uptrick: Fisher Eclipse1. Name and Purpose
Uptrick: Fisher Eclipse is a Pine version 6 extension of the basic Fisher Transform indicator that focuses on highlighting potential turning points in price data. Its purpose is to allow traders to spot shifts in momentum, detect divergence, and adapt signals to different market environments. By combining a core Fisher Transform with additional signal processing, divergence detection, and customizable aggressiveness settings, this script aims to help users see when a price move might be losing momentum or gaining strength.
2. Overview
This script uses a Fisher Transform calculation on the average of each bar’s high and low (hl2). The Fisher Transform is designed to amplify price extremes by mapping data into a different scale, making potential reversals more visible than they might be with standard oscillators. Uptrick: Fisher Eclipse takes this concept further by integrating a signal line, divergence detection, bar coloring for momentum intensity, and optional thresholds to reduce unwanted noise.
3. Why Use the Fisher Transform
The Fisher Transform is known for converting relatively smoothed price data into a more pronounced scale. This transformation highlights where markets may be overextended. In many cases, standard oscillators move gently, and traders can miss subtle hints that a reversal might be approaching. The Fisher Transform’s mathematical approach tightens the range of values and sharpens the highs and lows. This behavior can allow traders to see clearer peaks and troughs in momentum. Because it is often quite responsive, it can help anticipate areas where price might change direction, especially when compared to simpler moving averages or traditional oscillators. The result is a more evident signal of possible overbought or oversold conditions.
4. How This Extension Improves on the Basic Fisher Transform
Uptrick: Fisher Eclipse adds multiple features to the classic Fisher framework in order to address different trading styles and market behaviors:
a) Divergence Detection
The script can detect bullish or bearish divergences between price and the oscillator over a chosen lookback period, helping traders anticipate shifts in market direction.
b) Bar Coloring
When momentum exceeds a certain threshold (default 3), bars can be colored to highlight surges of buying or selling pressure. This quick visual reference can assist in spotting periods of heightened activity. After a bar color like this, usually, there is a quick correction as seen in the image below.
c) Signal Aggressiveness Levels
Users can choose between conservative, moderate, or aggressive signal thresholds. This allows them to tune how quickly the indicator flags potential entries or exits. Aggressive settings might suit scalpers who need rapid signals, while conservative settings may benefit swing traders preferring fewer, more robust indications.
d) Minimum Movement Filter
A configurable filter can be set to ensure that the Fisher line and its signal have a sufficient gap before triggering a buy or sell signal. This step is useful for traders seeking to minimize signals during choppy or sideways markets. This can be used to eliminate noise as well.
By combining all these elements into one package, the indicator attempts to offer a comprehensive toolkit for those who appreciate the Fisher Transform’s clarity but also desire more versatility.
5. Core Components
a) Fisher Transform
The script calculates a Fisher value using normalized price over a configurable length, highlighting potential peaks and troughs.
b) Signal Line
The Fisher line is smoothed using a short Simple Moving Average. Crossovers and crossunders are one of the key ways this indicator attempts to confirm momentum shifts.
c) Divergence Logic
The script looks back over a set number of bars to compare current highs and lows of both price and the Fisher oscillator. When price and the oscillator move in opposing directions, a divergence may occur, suggesting a possible upcoming reversal or weakening trend.
d) Thresholds for Overbought and Oversold
Horizontal lines are drawn at user-chosen overbought and oversold levels. These lines help traders see when momentum readings reach particular extremes, which can be especially relevant when combined with crossovers in that region.
e) Intensity Filter and Bar Coloring
If the magnitude of the change in the Fisher Transform meets or exceeds a specified threshold, bars are recolored. This provides a visual cue for significant momentum changes.
6. User Inputs
a) length
Defines how many bars the script looks back to compute the highest high and lowest low for the Fisher Transform. A smaller length reacts more quickly but can be noisier, while a larger length smooths out the indicator at the cost of responsiveness.
b) signal aggressiveness
Adjusts the buy and sell thresholds for conservative, moderate, and aggressive trading styles. This can be key in matching the indicator to personal risk preferences or varying market conditions. Conservative will give you less signals and aggressive will give you more signals.
c) minimum movement filter
Specifies how far apart the Fisher line and its signal line must be before generating a valid crossover signal.
d) divergence lookback
Controls how many bars are examined when determining if price and the oscillator are diverging. A larger setting might generate fewer signals, while a smaller one can provide more frequent alerts.
e) intensity threshold
Determines how large a change in the Fisher value must be for the indicator to recolor bars. Strong momentum surges become more noticeable.
f) overbought level and oversold level
Lets users define where they consider market conditions to be stretched on the upside or downside.
7. Calculation Process
a) Price Input
The script uses the midpoint of each bar’s high and low, sometimes referred to as hl2.
hl2 = (high + low) / 2
b) Range Normalization
Determine the maximum (maxHigh) and minimum (minLow) values over a user-defined lookback period (length).
Scale the hl2 value so it roughly fits between -1 and +1:
value = 2 * ((hl2 - minLow) / (maxHigh - minLow) - 0.5)
This step highlights the bar’s current position relative to its recent highs and lows.
c) Fisher Calculation
Convert the normalized value into the Fisher Transform:
fisher = 0.5 * ln( (1 + value) / (1 - value) ) + 0.5 * fisher_previous
fisher_previous is simply the Fisher value from the previous bar. Averaging half of the new transform with half of the old value smooths the result slightly and can prevent erratic jumps.
ln is the natural logarithm function, which compresses or expands values so that market turns often become more obvious.
d) Signal Smoothing
Once the Fisher value is computed, a short Simple Moving Average (SMA) is applied to produce a signal line. In code form, this often looks like:
signal = sma(fisher, 3)
Crossovers of the fisher line versus the signal line can be used to hint at changes in momentum:
• A crossover occurs when fisher moves from below to above the signal.
• A crossunder occurs when fisher moves from above to below the signal.
e) Threshold Checking
Users typically define oversold and overbought levels (often -1 and +1).
Depending on aggressiveness settings (conservative, moderate, aggressive), these thresholds are slightly shifted to filter out or include more signals.
For example, an oversold threshold of -1 might be used in a moderate setting, whereas -1.5 could be used in a conservative setting to require a deeper dip before triggering.
f) Divergence Checks
The script looks back a specified number of bars (divergenceLookback). For both price and the fisher line, it identifies:
• priceHigh = the highest hl2 within the lookback
• priceLow = the lowest hl2 within the lookback
• fisherHigh = the highest fisher value within the lookback
• fisherLow = the lowest fisher value within the lookback
If price forms a lower low while fisher forms a higher low, it can signal a bullish divergence. Conversely, if price forms a higher high while fisher forms a lower high, a bearish divergence might be indicated.
g) Bar Coloring
The script monitors the absolute change in Fisher values from one bar to the next (sometimes called fisherChange):
fisherChange = abs(fisher - fisher )
If fisherChange exceeds a user-defined intensityThreshold, bars are recolored to highlight a surge of momentum. Aqua might indicate a strong bullish surge, while purple might indicate a strong bearish surge.
This color-coding provides a quick visual cue for traders looking to spot large momentum swings without constantly monitoring indicator values.
8. Signal Generation and Filtering
Buy and sell signals occur when the Fisher line crosses the signal line in regions defined as oversold or overbought. The optional minimum movement filter prevents triggering if Fisher and its signal line are too close, reducing the chance of small, inconsequential price fluctuations creating frequent signals. Divergences that appear in oversold or overbought regions can serve as additional evidence that momentum might soon shift.
9. Visualization on the Chart
Uptrick: Fisher Eclipse plots two lines: the Fisher line in one color and the signal line in a contrasting shade. The chart displays horizontal dashed lines where the overbought and oversold levels lie. When the Fisher Transform experiences a sharp jump or drop above the intensity threshold, the corresponding price bars may change color, signaling that momentum has undergone a noticeable shift. If the indicator detects bullish or bearish divergence, dotted lines are drawn on the oscillator portion to connect the relevant points.
10. Market Adaptability
Because of the different aggressiveness levels and the optional minimum movement filter, Uptrick: Fisher Eclipse can be tailored to multiple trading styles. For instance, a short-term scalper might select a smaller length and more aggressive thresholds, while a swing trader might choose a longer length for smoother readings, along with conservative thresholds to ensure fewer but potentially stronger signals. During strongly trending markets, users might rely more on divergences or large intensity changes, whereas in a range-bound market, oversold or overbought conditions may be more frequent.
11. Risk Management Considerations
Indicators alone do not ensure favorable outcomes, and relying solely on any one signal can be risky. Using a stop-loss or other protections is often suggested, especially in fast-moving or unpredictable markets. Divergence can appear before a market reversal actually starts. Similarly, a Fisher Transform can remain in an overbought or oversold region for extended periods, especially if the trend is strong. Cautious interpretation and confirmation with additional methods or chart analysis can help refine entry and exit decisions.
12. Combining with Other Tools
Traders can potentially strengthen signals from Uptrick: Fisher Eclipse by checking them against other methods. If a moving average cross or a price pattern aligns with a Fisher crossover, the combined evidence might provide more certainty. Volume analysis may confirm whether a shift in market direction has participation from a broad set of traders. Support and resistance zones could reinforce overbought or oversold signals, particularly if price reaches a historical boundary at the same time the oscillator indicates a possible reversal.
13. Parameter Customization and Examples
Some short-term traders run a 15-minute chart, with a shorter length setting, aggressively tight oversold and overbought thresholds, and a smaller divergence lookback. This approach produces more frequent signals, which may appeal to those who enjoy fast-paced trading. More conservative traders might apply the indicator to a daily chart, using a larger length, moderate threshold levels, and a bigger divergence lookback to focus on broader market swings. Results can differ, so it may be helpful to conduct thorough historical testing to see which combination of parameters aligns best with specific goals.
14. Realistic Expectations
While the Fisher Transform can reveal potential turning points, no mathematical tool can predict future price behavior with full certainty. Markets can behave erratically, and a period of strong trending may see the oscillator pinned in an extreme zone without a significant reversal. Divergence signals sometimes appear well before an actual trend change occurs. Recognizing these limitations helps traders manage risk and avoids overreliance on any one aspect of the script’s output.
15. Theoretical Background
The Fisher Transform uses a logarithmic formula to map a normalized input, typically ranging between -1 and +1, into a scale that can fluctuate around values like -3 to +3. Because the transformation exaggerates higher and lower readings, it becomes easier to spot when the market might have stretched too far, too fast. Uptrick: Fisher Eclipse builds on that foundation by adding a series of practical tools that help confirm or refine those signals.
16. Originality and Uniqueness
Uptrick: Fisher Eclipse is not simply a duplicate of the basic Fisher Transform. It enhances the original design in several ways, including built-in divergence detection, bar-color triggers for momentum surges, thresholds for overbought and oversold levels, and customizable signal aggressiveness. By unifying these concepts, the script seeks to reduce noise and highlight meaningful shifts in market direction. It also places greater emphasis on helping traders adapt the indicator to their specific style—whether that involves frequent intraday signals or fewer, more robust alerts over longer timeframes.
17. Summary
Uptrick: Fisher Eclipse is an expanded take on the original Fisher Transform oscillator, including divergence detection, bar coloring based on momentum strength, and flexible signal thresholds. By adjusting parameters like length, aggressiveness, and intensity thresholds, traders can configure the script for day-trading, swing trading, or position trading. The indicator endeavors to highlight where price might be shifting direction, but it should still be combined with robust risk management and other analytical methods. Doing so can lead to a more comprehensive view of market conditions.
18. Disclaimer
No indicator or script can guarantee profitable outcomes in trading. Past performance does not necessarily suggest future results. Uptrick: Fisher Eclipse is provided for educational and informational purposes. Users should apply their own judgment and may want to confirm signals with other tools and methods. Deciding to open or close a position remains a personal choice based on each individual’s circumstances and risk tolerance.

Pro Momentum CalculatorThe Pro Momentum Calculator Indicator is a tool for traders seeking to gauge market momentum and predict future price movements. It achieves this by counting consecutive candle periods above or below a chosen Simple Moving Average (SMA) and then providing a percentage-based probability for the direction of the next candle.
Here's how this principle works:
1. Counting Consecutive Periods: The indicator continuously tracks whether the closing prices of candles are either above or below the chosen SMA.
- When closing prices are above the SMA, it counts consecutive periods as "green" or indicating potential upward momentum.
- When closing prices are below the SMA, it counts consecutive periods as "red" or suggesting potential downward momentum.
2. Assessing Momentum: By monitoring these consecutive periods, the indicator assesses the strength and duration of the current market trend.
This is important information for traders looking to understand the market's behavior.
3. Predicting the Next Candle: Based on the historical data of consecutive green and red periods, the indicator calculates a percentage probability for the direction of the next candle:
- If there have been more consecutive green periods, it suggests a higher likelihood of the next candle being green (indicating a potential upward movement).
- If there have been more consecutive red periods, it suggests a higher likelihood of the next candle being red (indicating a potential downward movement).

Slight Swing Momentum Strategy.Introduction:
The Swing Momentum Strategy is a quantitative trading strategy designed to capture mid-term opportunities in the financial markets by combining swing trading principles with momentum indicators. It utilizes a combination of technical indicators, including moving averages, crossover signals, and volume analysis, to generate buy and sell signals. The strategy aims to identify market trends and capitalize on price momentum for profit generation.
Highlights:
The strategy offers several key highlights that make it unique and potentially attractive to traders:
Swing Trading with Momentum: The strategy combines the principles of swing trading, which aim to capture short-to-medium-term price swings, with momentum indicators that help identify strong price trends and potential breakout opportunities.
Technical Indicator Optimization: The strategy utilizes a selection of optimized technical indicators, including moving averages and crossover signals, to filter out the noise and focus on high-probability trading setups. This optimization enhances the strategy's ability to identify favourable entry and exit points.
Risk Management: The strategy incorporates risk management techniques, such as position sizing based on equity and dynamic stop loss levels, to manage risk exposure and protect capital. This helps to minimize drawdowns and preserve profits.
Buy Condition:
The buy condition in the strategy is determined by a combination of factors, including A1, A2, A3, XG, and weeklySlope. Let's break it down:
A1 Condition: The A1 condition checks for specific price relationships. It verifies that the ratio of the highest price to the closing price is less than 1.03, the ratio of the opening price to the lowest price is less than 1.03, and the ratio of the highest price to the previous day's closing price is greater than 1.06. This condition looks for a specific pattern indicating potential bullish momentum.
A2 Condition: The A2 condition checks for price relationships related to the closing price. It verifies that the ratio of the closing price to the opening price is greater than 1.05 or that the ratio of the closing price to the previous day's closing price is greater than 1.05. This condition looks for signs of upward price movement and momentum.
A3 Condition: The A3 condition focuses on volume. It checks if the current volume crosses above the highest volume over the last 60 periods. This condition aims to identify increased buying interest and potentially confirms the strength of the potential upward price movement.
XG Condition: The XG condition combines the A1 and A2 conditions and checks if they are true for both the current and previous bars. It also verifies that the ratio of the closing price to the 5-period EMA crosses above the 9-period SMA of the same ratio. This condition helps identify potential buy signals when multiple factors align, indicating a strong bullish momentum and potential entry point.
Weekly Trend Factor: The weekly slope condition calculates the slope of the 50-period SMA over a weekly timeframe. It checks if the slope is positive, indicating an overall upward trend on a weekly basis. This condition provides additional confirmation that the stock is in an upward trend.
When all of these conditions align, the buy condition is triggered, indicating a favourable time to enter a long position.
Sell Condition:
The sell condition is relatively straightforward in the strategy:
Sell Signal: The sell condition simply checks if the closing price crosses below the 10-period EMA. When this condition is met, it indicates a potential reversal or weakening of the upward price momentum, and a sell signal is generated.
Backtest Outcome:
The strategy was backtested over the period from January 22nd, 1999 to May 3rd, 2023, using daily candlestick charts for the NASDAQ: NVDA. The strategy used an initial capital of 1,000,000 USD, The order quantity is defined as 10% of the equity. The strategy allows for pyramiding with 1 order, and the transaction fee is set at 0.03% per trade. Here are the key outcomes of the backtest:
Net Profit: 539,595.84 USD, representing a return of 53.96%.
Percent Profitable: 48.82%
Total Closed Trades: 127
Profit Factor: 2.331
Max Drawdown: 68,422.70 USD
Average Trade: 4,248.79 USD
Average Number of Bars in Trades: 11, indicating the average duration of the trades.
Conclusion:
In conclusion, the Swing Momentum Strategy is a quantitative trading approach that combines swing trading principles with momentum indicators to identify and capture mid term trading opportunities. The strategy has demonstrated promising results during backtesting, including a significant net profit and a favourable profit factor.
BTC SOPR Momentum: OnchainThis Onchin metric is based on SOPR data
Use this metric on daily and weekly timeframes:
SOPR:
The Spent Output Profit Ratio (SOPR) is computed by dividing the realized value (in USD) divided by the value at creation (USD) of a spent output. Or simply: price sold / price paid. Renato Shirakashi created this metric. When SOPR > 1, it means that the owners of the spent outputs are in profit at the time of the transaction; otherwise, they are at a loss. You can find "SOPR" in tradingview indicators
BTC SOPR Momentum: Onchain
This metric is based on SOPR Momentum. I made some changes to it so that its momentum can be checked.
Interpretation:
If the indicator is above the gray level of resistance/support, bitcoin has an uptrend and Bullish bias
If the indicator is below the resistance/ support level, bitcoin has a downtrend and Bearish Bias
Crossup the gray level is a long signal
Cross-down the gray level is a shorts signal
Entering and exit of the indicator to the overhigh area means creating a top
Entering and leaving the indicator to the overflow area means creating a bottom
Stochastic Z-Score [AlgoAlpha]🟠 OVERVIEW
This indicator is a custom-built oscillator called the Stochastic Z-Score , which blends a volatility-normalized Z-Score with stochastic principles and smooths it using a Hull Moving Average (HMA). It transforms raw price deviations into a normalized momentum structure, then processes that through a stochastic function to better identify extreme moves. A secondary long-term momentum component is also included using an ALMA smoother. The result is a responsive oscillator that reacts to sharp imbalances while remaining stable in sideways conditions. Colored histograms, dynamic oscillator bands, and reversal labels help users visually assess shifts in momentum and identify potential turning points.
🟠 CONCEPTS
The Z-Score is calculated by comparing price to its mean and dividing by its standard deviation—this normalizes movement and highlights how far current price has stretched from typical values. This Z-Score is then passed through a stochastic function, which further refines the signal into a bounded range for easier interpretation. To reduce noise, a Hull Moving Average is applied. A separate long-term trend filter based on the ALMA of the Z-Score helps determine broader context, filtering out short-term traps. Zones are mapped with thresholds at ±2 and ±2.5 to distinguish regular momentum from extreme exhaustion. The tool is built to adapt across timeframes and assets.
🟠 FEATURES
Z-Score histogram with gradient color to visualize deviation intensity (optional toggle).
Primary oscillator line (smoothed stochastic Z-Score) with adaptive coloring based on momentum direction.
Dynamic bands at ±2 and ±2.5 to represent regular vs extreme momentum zones.
Long-term momentum line (ALMA) with contextual coloring to separate trend phases.
Automatic reversal markers when short-term crosses occur at extremes with supporting long-term momentum.
Built-in alerts for oscillator direction changes, zero-line crosses, overbought/oversold entries, and trend confirmation.
🟠 USAGE
Use this script to track momentum shifts and identify potential reversal areas. When the oscillator is rising and crosses above the previous value—especially from deeply negative zones (below -2)—and the ALMA is also above zero, this suggests bullish reversal conditions. The opposite holds for bearish setups. Reversal labels ("▲" and "▼") appear only when both short- and long-term conditions align. The ±2 and ±2.5 thresholds act as momentum warning zones; values inside are typical trends, while those beyond suggest exhaustion or extremes. Adjust the length input to match the asset’s volatility. Enable the histogram to explore underlying raw Z-Score movements. Alerts can be configured to notify key changes in momentum or zone entries.

Dynamic Table Display: A color-coded table that automatically adjusts based on the selected timeframes, offering a clear view of market conditions.
Alerts for Key Market Events: Get notifications when a squeeze starts or fires across your chosen timeframes, so you can stay informed without needing to monitor the chart continuously.
Customizable Appearance: Tailor the look of the table by selecting colors for squeeze levels and momentum shifts, and choose the best position on your chart for easy access.
How It Works:
MTF SqzMom is based on the concept of the squeeze, which signals periods of lower volatility where price breakouts may occur. The tool tracks this by monitoring the contraction of Bollinger Bands within Keltner Channels. Along with this, it provides momentum analysis to help you gauge the potential direction of the market after a squeeze.
Squeeze Conditions: The script tracks four levels of squeeze conditions (no squeeze, low, mid, and high), each represented by a different color in the table.
Momentum Analysis: Momentum is visually represented by colors indicating four stages: up increasing, up decreasing, down increasing, and down decreasing. This color coding helps you quickly assess whether the market is gaining or losing momentum.
Using Alerts:
You can enable two types of alerts: when a squeeze starts (indicating consolidation) and when a squeeze fires (indicating a breakout). These alerts cover all timeframes you’ve selected, so you never miss important signals.
How to Set It Up:
1. Enable Alerts in Settings: Turn on "Alert for Squeeze Start" and "Alert for Squeeze Fire" in the settings.
2. Add Alerts to Your Chart:
Click the three dots next to the indicator name.
Select "Add alert on tradeviZion - MTF SqzMom."
3. Customize and Save: Adjust alert options, choose your notification type, and click "Create."
Why Use MTF SqzMom ?
Consistent Data: The tool ensures that squeeze and momentum data remain consistent, even when you switch between chart intervals.
Real-Time Alerts: Stay updated with alerts for squeeze conditions without needing to constantly watch the chart.
Simple to Use, Customizable to Fit: You can easily adjust the table’s look and choose the timeframes and colors that best suit your trading style.
Acknowledgment:
While this tool builds on the TTM Squeeze concept developed by John Carter of Simpler Trading, it offers added flexibility through multi-timeframe analysis, alerts, and customizability to make monitoring market conditions more accessible.
Trend Tide Oscillator [UAlgo]🔶 Description:
The "Trend Tide Oscillator " is a technical analysis tool designed to identify potential trend reversals and overbought/oversold conditions in the market. It calculates an oscillator based on the Commodity Channel Index (CCI) and then applies smoothing techniques to provide a clearer view of market momentum.
🔶 Key Features:
Oscillator Calculation : The indicator calculates an oscillator based on the Commodity Channel Index (CCI), which is a momentum-based oscillator used to identify overbought and oversold conditions.
Smoothing : Smoothing techniques are applied to the oscillator to reduce noise and provide a clearer view of market momentum. This helps traders in identifying trends more effectively.
Support and Resistance Zones : The indicator plots support and resistance zones based on the highest and lowest values of the oscillator over a specified lookback (default 50) period. These zones can help traders identify potential areas of price reversal. The indicator considers volatility when plotting the support and resistance zones. This aims to create more adaptable levels that account for fluctuating market conditions.
Visualization : The indicator visually represents overbought and oversold conditions with shapes (⚠️), aiding traders in quickly identifying potential entry or exit points.
Customization : Users can adjust parameters such as oscillator length, smoothing, and overbought/oversold levels, support and resistance lookbacks according to their trading preferences.
🔶 Disclaimer :
This indicator is provided for informational and educational purposes only and should not be considered as financial advice. Trading in the financial markets involves risk, and users should conduct their own research and analysis before making any investment decisions.
Weighted Oscillator Convergence DivergenceThe Weighted Oscillator Convergence Divergence (WOCD) aims to help traders identify potential trend reversals or momentum shifts in financial markets by calculating and visualizing the difference between a smoothed oscillator (WMA) value and its exponential moving average (EMA) and simple moving average (SMA) counterparts. This indicator is particularly useful for traders who want an alternative perspective on price momentum and divergence.
Key Features:
Inputs:
Length: The user can specify the number of bars to consider for calculations (default is 9).
Smoothing 1: Defines the smoothing factor for the first smoothed value (default is 5).
Smoothing 2: Specifies the smoothing factor for the second smoothed value (default is 7).
Ma Type: There are three types of moving averages you can choose (Wilder, non-lag, Weighted is by default).
Color Settings: Users can customize the indicator's colors for various elements, such as length, smoothing values, and different sections of the histogram.
Calculation:
WOCD calculates the raw oscillator value by subtracting the close price from a 3-period High, Low, Close (HLC3) moving average.
It then applies smoothing to this raw oscillator value using two different methods: exponential moving average (EMA) and simple moving average (SMA) with user-defined smoothing periods.
Histogram Plot:
The indicator plots a histogram based on the difference between the smoothed oscillator and the first smoothed value.
When the histogram is above zero and rising, it is colored according to the "Above Grow" color setting. When it's above zero and falling, it uses the "Fall" color for visualization.
Similarly, when the histogram is below zero and rising, it is colored according to the "Below Grow" color setting, and when it's below zero and falling, it uses the "Fall" color.
Oscillator and Smoothed Values:
The indicator also plots the smoothed oscillator, smoothed value 1 (EMA-based), and smoothed value 2 (SMA-based) on the chart.
Zero Line:
A horizontal line at zero is drawn on the chart for reference.
How to Use the WOCD Indicator:
Trend Identification: Observe the histogram's direction and color. A rising histogram above zero may indicate bullish momentum, while a falling histogram below zero could signal bearish momentum.
Divergence: Look for divergences between price action and the histogram. When the histogram and price move in opposite directions, it can be a potential reversal signal.
Crossovers: Pay attention to crossovers between the smoothed oscillator and its smoothed counterparts (EMA and SMA). These crossovers can indicate changes in trend strength or direction.
Zero Line: The zero line can act as a reference point. Positive histogram values suggest bullish sentiment, while negative values indicate bearish sentiment.
Comparison to MACD Indicator:
The WOCD indicator shares some similarities with the Moving Average Convergence Divergence (MACD) indicator but also has distinct differences:
Similarities:
Both WOCD and MACD are momentum oscillators designed to identify potential trend reversals and divergences.
They use moving averages (EMA in the case of MACD) to smooth the raw oscillator values.
Both indicators provide histogram representations of the difference between the oscillator and its smoothed counterpart.
Differences:
WOCD uses a 3-period High, Low, Close (HLC3) moving average to calculate the raw oscillator value, whereas MACD uses the difference between two exponential moving averages (usually 12-period and 26-period EMAs).
The smoothing in WOCD employs both EMA and SMA, while MACD exclusively uses EMA.
WOCD allows users to customize colors for various elements, enhancing visual clarity.
Cryptogrithm's Secret Momentum and Volatility IndicatorThis indicator is hard-coded for Bitcoin, but you may try it on other asset classes/coins. I have not updated this indicator in over 3 years, but it seems to still work very well for Bitcoin.
This indicator is NOT for beginners and is directed towards intermediate/advanced traders with a sensibility to agree/disagree with what this indicator is signalling (common sense).
This indicator was developed back in 2018 and I has not been maintained since, which is the reason why I am releasing it. (It still works great though! At the time of this writing of May 2022).
How to use:
Terms:
PA (Price Action): Literally the candlestick formations on your chart (and the trend formation). If you don't know how to read and understand price action, I will make a fast-track video/guide on this later (but in the meanwhile, you need to begin by learning Order-Flow Analysis, please google it first before asking).
CG Level (Cryptogrithm Level/Yellow Line): PA level above = bullish, PA level below = bearish
CG Bands (Cryptogrithm Bands): This is similar to how bollingers work, you can use this the same was as bollinger bands. The only difference is that the CG bands are more strict with the upper and lower levels as it uses different calculations to hug the price tighter allowing it to be more reactive to drastic price changes (earlier signals for oversold/overbought).
CG Upper Band (Red Upper Line): Above this upper bound line means overbought.
CG Middle Band (Light Blue Line): If PA trades above this line, the current PA trend is bullish continuing in the uptrend. If PA trades below this line, the current PA trend is bearish continuing in the downtrend. This band should only be used for short-term trends.
CG Lower Band (Green Lower Line): Below this lower bound line means oversold.
What the CG Level (yellow line) tells you:
PA is trading above CG Level = Bullish
PA is trading below CG Level = Bearish
Distance between CG Level and price = Momentum
What this means is that the further away the price is from the CG Level, the greater the momentum of the current PA trend. An increasing gap between the CG Level and PA indicates the price's strength (momentum) towards the current upward/downward trend. Basically when the PA and CG Level diverge, it means that the momentum is increasing in the current trend and when they converge, the current trend is losing momentum and the direction of the PA trend may flip towards the other direction (momentum flip).
PA+CG Level Momentum:
To use the CG Level as a momentum indicator, you need to pay attention to how the price and the CG level are moving away/closer from each other:
PA + CG Level Diverges = Momentum Increasing
PA + CG Level Converges = Momentum Decreasing
Examples (kind of common sense, but just for clarity):
Case 1: Bullish Divergence (Bullish): The PA is ABOVE and trending AWAY above from the CG Level = very bullish, this means that momentum is increasing towards the upside and larger moves will come (increasing gap between the price and CG Level)
Case 2: Bearish Convergence (Bearish): - The PA is ABOVE the CG Level and trending TOWARDS the CG Level = bearish, there is a possibility that the upward trend is ending. Look to start closing off long positions until case 1 (divergence) occurs again.
Case 3: Neutral - The PA is trading on the CG Level (no clear divergence or convergence between the PA and CG Level) = Indicates a back and forth (tug of war) between bears and bulls. Beware of choppy price patterns as the trend is undecisive until either supply/liquidity is dried out and a winner between bull/bear is chosen. This is a no trade zone, but do as you wish.
Case 4: Bearish Divergence (Bearish): The PA is BELOW and trending AWAY BELOW from the CG Level = very bearish, this means that momentum is increasing towards the downside and larger downward moves will come (increasing gap between the price and CG Level).
Case 5: Bullish Convergence (Bullish): - The PA is BELOW the CG Level and trending TOWARDS the CG Level = bullish, there is a possibility that the downward trend is ending and a trend flip is occuring. Look to start closing off short positions until case 4 (divergence) occurs again.
CG Bands + CG Level: You can use the CG bands instead of the PA candles to get a cleaner interpretation of reading the momentum. I won't go into detail as this is pretty self-explanatory. It is the same explanation as PA+CG Level Momentum, but you are replacing the PA candles with the CG Bands for interpretation. So instead of the PA converging/diverging from the CG Level, the Upper and Lower Bound levels are converging/diverging from the CG level instead.
Convergence: CG Level (yellow line) trades inside the CG bands
Divergence: CG Level (yellow line) trades outside the CG bands
Bullish/Bearish depends on whether the CG Band is trading below or above the CG level. If CG Band is above the CG Level, this is bullish. If CG Band is below the CG level, this is bearish.
Crosses (PA or CG Band crosses with CG level): This typically indicates volatility is incoming.
There are MANY MANY MANY other ways to use this indicator that is not explained here and even other undiscovered methods. Use some common sense as to how this indicator works (it is a momentum indicator and volatility predictor). You can get pretty creative and apply your own methods / knowledge to it and look for patterns that occur. Feel free to comment and share what you came up with!
+ WaveTrend OscillatorI'm guessing most of you are familir with LazyBear's adaptation of the Wavetrend Oscillator; it's one of the most popular indicators on TradingView. I know others have done adaptations of it, but I thought I might as well, because that's kind of a thing I like doing.
In this version I've added a second Wavetrend plot. This is a thing I like to do. The longer plot gives you a longer timeframe momentum bias, and the shorter plot gives you entries and/or exits. Here we have one plot with a lookback period of 55, and another with the default set to 6 (change this to 14 if you think you might prefer something slower and that will plot similarly to the default RSI settings). With the traditional Wavetrend Oscillator there is a simple moving average on the WTO that is to help provide entries and exits. I've done away with this as there are already two plots, and I felt more would just clutter the indicator. Instead of plotting the SMA I've plotted the crosses along the bottom and top of the indicator. Also, as is not the case in LazyBear's version, this SMA length is adjustable. By default it is set to 3, which is the default setting on the original indicator.
I've also plotted background colors for when there is what I call a momentum shift. If one or the other oscillators crosses the centerline a colored bar is plotted. By default it is turned on for both WTOs, though in practice you might only want it on for the longer one.
I would say use of the indicator is similar to the original WTO or many other oscillators. Buying oversold and selling overbought, but being mindful of the momentum of the market. If the longer WTO is above the centerline it's best to be looking for dips to the centerline, or for an overbought signal by the faster WTO, and vice versa if the longer WTO is below the centerline. That said, you can also adjust the length of the SMA on the faster WTO to fine tune entries or exits, which is kind of how you would trade LazyBear's version. In this case you have that additional confirmation of market momentum.
You can set colored candles to either of the WTO plots via a dropdown menu.
There are alerts for overbought and oversold situations, centerline crosses, and Wavetrend crosses.
That's about it. Hope you enjoy this particular implementation of LazyBear's well known indicator.
Ah yes, last thing: Original version the source is set to hlc3. I've given you the opportunity to change that, so if you prefer using close you can, or whatever you want.
