FULL MA Optimization ScriptHello!
This script measures the performance of 10 moving averages and compares them!
Crossover and crossunders are both tested.
The tested moving averages include: TEMA, DEMA, EMA, SMA, ALMA, HMA, T3 Average, WMA, VWMA, LSMA.
You can select the length of the moving averages and the data source (I.E, close, open, ohlc4, etc.) and the script will calculate your selections!
For instance, if you select a length of 32 and a source of ohlc4 for crossovers, the script will assign the ten moving averages that length and data source and compare the performance for ohlc4 crossovers of the 32TEMA, 32DEMA, 32SMA, 32WMA, etc. If you select crossunder, the script will calculate the performance of ohlc4 crossunders of the same moving average lengths.
Moving average performances are listed in descending order (best to worst) and are categorized by tier: Upper-Tier, Mid-Tier, Lower-Tier. The Upper-Tier displays the three best performing averages relative to the MA length and data source, for the asset on the relevant chart timeframe. The Lower-Tier displays the three worst performing averages. The Mid-Tier displays the moving averages whose performance did not achieve a top three spot or a bottom three spot.
Also calculated is the moving average which achieved the highest cumulative gain/loss and the lowest cumulative gain/loss. Any asset and timeframe can be tested; the script recalculates relative to the chart timeframe. I added a "Benchmark Moving Average" free parameter and a "Custom Moving Average" free parameter. The two operate identically; you can set the length and data source of both for quick and simple comparison between differing average lengths and sources.
If "Crossover" is selected, the "(X Candles)" displayed on the tables reflects the average number of sessions the data source remains above a moving average following a crossover. If "Crossunder" is selected, the "(X Candles)" reflects the average number of sessions the data source remains below the moving average following a crossunder.
If "Crossover" is selected, the listed "X%" reflects the average percentage gain/loss following a source crossover of a moving average up until the source crosses back under the moving average. If "Crossunder" is selected, the listed "X%" reflects the average percentage gain/loss following a source crossunder of a moving average up until the source crosses back over the moving average.
If "Crossover" is selected, the listed "X Crosses" reflects the number of instances in which the source crossed over a moving average. If "Crossunder" is selected, the listed "X Crosses" reflects the number of instances in which the source crossed under a moving average.
Additional tooltips and instructions are included should you access the user input menu.
The moving averages can be plotted as a gradient (highest priced MA to lowest priced MA) alongside the best performing moving average. The moving averages can be plotted in full color, light color alongside the best performing average, or not plotted.
This script improves upon a similar script I have released:
I decided not to update the previous script. The previous script calculates crossovers only and, due to being less code intensive, calculates much quicker. If a user is concerned only with price crossovers, not crossunders, the original script is a better option! It's faster, making it the preferable choice!
This script "FULL MA Optimization" calculates crossovers/crossunders and incorporates additional plot styles. I ran into trouble a few times where the script was too large to run on TV. This script is not "slow", I suppose; however, calculations and parameter modifications take a bit longer than the original script!

Consensio V2 - Directionality IndicatorThis indicator is based on Consensio Trading System by Tyler Jenks.
It is used for measuring the Directionality of the market.
According to this trading system, you start by laying 3 Simple Moving Averages:
A Long-Term Moving Average (LTMA).
A Short-Term Moving Average (STMA).
A Price Moving Average (Price).
*The "Price" should be A relatively short Moving Average in order to reflect the current price.
What is Direction(D)?
Each Moving Average at any given time is pointing in a certain direction. It can either go Up, Down, or it can be in a Consolidation state.
That's why, each Direction(D) is assigned to a score :
Up = 2
Consolidation = 1
Down = 0
For example, if LTMA is directed Up, then D =2.
What is Influence(I)?
Generally, The fluctuation of the "Price" tends to have less influence on the "LTMA" than the fluctuation of the "STMA".
this is why each Moving Average has different degree of Influence(I):
LTMA = 9
STMA = 3
Price = 1
Moving Average Score
To calculate the score of a Moving Average, you Multiply the Moving Average Direction(D) by its Influence(I).
For example, if LTMA is directed Up then the score of this Moving Average is 18.
What is Directionality?
Directionality is the sum of all 3 Moving Averages score minus 13.
For example, if the score of LTMA=18 and STMA=6 and Price=2, then Directionality is equal to 13.
Also, if the score of LTMA=0 and STMA= 0 and Price=0, then Directionality is equal to -13.
When Directionality is bigger than 0 the Directionality is Bullish.
When Directionality is smaller than 0 the Directionality is Bearish.
Conclusion
Consensio Directionality Indicator helps us measure the Directionality of the market. Knowing the Directionality of the market helps us build better trading strategies.
Recommendations
Different Moving Averages may suit you better when trading different assets on different time periods. You can go into the indicator settings and change the Moving Averages values if needed.
you should also use the "Consensio Relativity Indicator" In order to Understand the Market state.
While using both of my Consensio indicators together, please make sure that the Moving Averages on both of them are set to the same values
JC MAs: SMA, WMA, EMA, DEMA, TEMA, ALMA, Hull, Kaufman, FractalThe best collection of moving averages anywhere. I know, because I searched, couldn't find the right collection, and so wrote it myself!
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Notable features that either aren't found anywhere else...or at least in one place:
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------
• The "Triple Exponential Moving Average", is actually that mathematically - rather than "three seperate EMA graphs", as is commonly found on Trading View.
• Includes exotic moving averages: Hull Moving Average (HMA), Kaufman's Adaptive Moving Average (KAMA), and Fractal Apaptive Moving Average (FrAMA).
• Each moving average has its own user-definable averaging length in DAYS, rather than an abstract "length". This is respected even for different graphing resolutions, and different chart views - even for the more exotic MAs.
• Days can be fractional.
• A master time resolution ("Timeframe") is also user-definable. And unlike most other moving average charts, this won't affect the internal "length" variable (specified days are still respected), it only changes the graphing resolution. You can also specify to use chart's resolution - which, as you know, is not very useful for moving averages - yet so many moving average scripts on Trading View don't let you specify otherwise.
• If every CPU cycle counts, you can set "days" to 0 to prevent a particular unneeded moving average from being calculated at all.
• Includes a custom moving average that is unique, if you're looking for a tiny edge in TA to beat everyone else looking at the same stuff: a customizable weighted blend of SMA, TEMA, HMA, KAMA, and FrMA. (Note: The weights for these blends don't have to add up to 100, they will self-level no matter what they add up to.)
• By default, the averages are color-coded according to rainbow order of light spectrum frequency, relative to approximate responsiveness to current price: Red (SMA) is the laziest, violet (FrAMA) is the most hyper, and green is in the middle.
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Contains the following moving averages, in order of responsiveness:
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------
• Simple Moving Average (SMA)
• Arnaud Legoux Moving Average (ALMA)
• Exponential Moving Average (EMA)
• Weighted Moving Average (WMA)
• Blend average of SMA and TEMA (JCBMA)
• Double Exponential Moving Average (DEMA)
• Triple Exponential Moving Average (TEMA)
• Hull Moving Average (HMA)
• Kaufman's Adaptive Moving Average (KAMA)
• Fractal Apaptive Moving Average (FrAMA)
Note: There are a few extreme edge cases where the graphs won't render, which are obvious. (Because they won't render.) In which case, all you need to do is choose a more sane master resolution ("Timeframe") relative to the timeframe of the chart. This is more about the limits of Trading View, than specific script bugs.

Includes reworked code snippets

[blackcat] L1 Tim Tillson T3Level: 1
Background
T3 Moving Average is the responsive form of traditional moving averages. Presented in 1998 by Tim Tillson, T3 is also known as the Tillson Moving Averages. The thought behind the development of this technical indicator was to improve lag and false signals, which can be present in moving averages.
Function
The T3 indicator performs better than the ordinary moving averages. The reason for this is T3 Moving Average is built with the EMA (exponential moving average).
Its calculation is based on the sum of single EMA, double EMA, Triple EMA, and so on.
This gives the following equation:
T3 = c1*e6 + c2*e5 + c3*e4 + c4*e3…
Where
e3 = EMA (e2, Period)
e4 = EMA (e3, Period)
e5 = EMA (e4, Period)
e6 = EMA (e5, Period)
a is the volume factor, with a default value of 0.7 but you can also use 0.618
c1 = a^3
c2 = 3*a^2 + 3*a^3
c3 =6*a^2 – 3*a – 3*a^3
c4 = 1 + 3*a + a^3 + 3*a^2
When a trend appears, the price action stays above or below the trend line and doesn’t get disturbed from the price swing. The moving of the T3 and the lack of reversals can indicate the end of the trend. The T3 Moving Average produces signals just like moving averages, and similar trading conditions can be applied. If the price is above the T3 Moving Average and the indicator moves upward, this is a sign of a bullish trend. Here we may look to enter long. Conversely, if the price action is below the T3 Moving Average and the indicator moves downwards, a bearish trend appears. Here we may want to look for a short entry.
Key Signal
Price --> Price Input.
T3 --> T3 Ouput.
Remarks
This is a Level 1 free and open source indicator.
Feedbacks are appreciated.
Moving Average Percentage Hunter by HassonyaIn this indicator study, we aim to capture the moving averages to which the bar close is closest. The indicator shows the moving averages, which are closest to the percentage value we selected, on the label. It indicates the names of the closest averages at the top of the label with a (near) note next to them. If none of the averages are close to the specified percentage value, there will be a no nearness warning. The indicator supports the heikin ashi candles. For this setting, check the I'm using heikin ashi candles box.
Thanks to this feature of the indicator, you will be able to see bar proximity to the moving averages you use continuously. You can make purchases and sales by using this feature to your advantage. This way you can easily catch reaction turns.
If you want, you can turn off moving averages in the settings section. You can open it whenever you need. You can do this in the show moving averages box. Appears if you check it, disappears if you uncheck it.
There are 5 moving average options. SMA, EMA, WMA, TMA and HullMA moving averages. Moving average names and values in the list are dynamically adjusted. When you change the settings, the moving average names and values in the list will change automatically. At the bottom of the settings, you can determine the lengths of the moving averages yourself. In the next update, each moving average will have a different average option.
You can enter percentage values, fractional figures. for example (3.5, 5.2 vb.) The indicator will show you the value you give and the proximity of the value below that value. You can adjust this setting in MA Percentage Nearness.
More detailed options will be available in the next update. Range of values, options below, above, and so on.
In the settings section, there is a Show distance option. If you check this option, you can continuously see the percentage values of the distance to the moving averages on the label. For this feature, you have to check the show distance box.
The alarm feature will come in the next update.
Thanks for support. Good Luck.
Anticipated Simple Moving Average Crossover IndicatorIntroducing the Anticipated Simple Moving Average Crossover Indicator
This is my Pinescript implementation of the Anticipated Simple Moving Average Crossover Indicator
Much respect to the original creator of this idea Dimitris Tsokakis
This indicator removes one bar of lag from simple moving average crossover signals with a high degree of accuracy to give a slight but very real edge.
Moving Averages
A moving average simplifies price data by smoothing it out by averaging closing prices and creating one flowing line which makes seeing the trend easier.
Moving averages can work well in strong trending conditions, but poorly in choppy or ranging conditions.
Adjusting the time frame can remedy this problem temporarily, although at some point, these issues are likely to occur regardless of the time frame chosen for the moving average(s).
While Exponential moving averages react quicker to price changes than simple moving averages. In some cases, this may be good, and in others, it may cause false signals.
Moving averages with a shorter look back period (20 days, for example) will also respond quicker to price changes than an average with a longer look back period (200 days).
Trading Strategies — Moving Average Crossovers
Moving average crossovers are a popular strategy for both entries and exits. MAs can also highlight areas of potential support or resistance.
The first type is a price crossover, which is when the price crosses above or below a moving average to signal a potential change in trend.
Another strategy is to apply two moving averages to a chart: one longer and one shorter.
When the shorter-term MA crosses above the longer-term MA, it's a buy signal, as it indicates that the trend is shifting up. This is known as a "golden cross."
Meanwhile, when the shorter-term MA crosses below the longer-term MA, it's a sell signal, as it indicates that the trend is shifting down. This is known as a "dead/death cross."
MA and MA Cross Strategy Disadvantages
Moving averages are calculated based on historical data, and while this may appear predictive nothing about the calculation is predictive in nature.
Moving averages are always based on historical data and simply show the average price over a certain time period.
Therefore, results using moving averages can be quite random.
At times, the market seems to respect MA support/resistance and trade signals, and at other times, it shows these indicators no respect.
One major problem is that, if the price action becomes choppy, the price may swing back and forth, generating multiple trend reversal or trade signals.
When this occurs, it's best to step aside or utilize another indicator to help clarify the trend.
The same thing can occur with MA crossovers when the MAs get "tangled up" for a period of time during periods of consolidation, triggering multiple losing trades.
Ensure you use a robust risk management system to avoid getting "Chopped Up" or "Whip Sawed" during these periods.

SMA Directional Matrix [LuxAlgo]This script was created in collaboration with alexgrover and displays a simple & elegant panel showing the direction of simple moving averages with periods in a user-selected range (Min, Max). The displayed number in the panel is the period of a simple moving average and the symbol situated at the right of it is associated with the direction this moving average is taking.
Settings
Min: Minimum period of the moving average
Max: Maximum period of the moving average
Src: Source input of the moving averages
Number Of Columns: Number of columns to be displayed in the panel, handy when using a large range of periods.
Usage
Looking at the direction of moving averages with different periods is extremely useful when it comes to having information about the short/mid/long term overall market sentiment, and can also tell us if the market is trending or ranging.
Here we use periods ranging from 25 to 50, we can see that shorter moving averages react to the recent upward price variation, longer-term moving averages however are still affected by the overall downward variation you can see on the image. We can as such get information about the presence of potentials divergences, with shorter-term moving averages reacting to the divergence while the longer-term moving averages will still display the direction of the main trend.
As such the indicator can give information about how clean a trend is, with a clean trend being defined as a variation containing no retracements. When our trend contains no retracement, the mid/long term moving averages will all have the same direction, however, when a retracement is present, the midterm moving averages might be affected by it, thus displaying a direction contrary to the main trend.
When the market is ranging we can expect the panel to display an equal number of decreasing/increasing moving averages.
Possible Issues
When using a large range of periods, you might have an error message showing: "String is too long", try lowering the range of periods by increasing Min or decreasing Max .
If the script displays the error message "Loop is too long to execute", try resetting the settings and change them back to the one you wanted to use.
RSI+ by WilsonThis is a modified version of my RSI Cloud indicator. You can plot 2 moving averages over RSI. You have the option to plot moving average types like SMA, EMA, WMA, VWMA, HullMA, and ALMA. You also have the option to plot histograms based on any of the moving averages. You can fill colors between RSI and moving averages. Option to add alerts, crossover and crossunder signals are also included. I have also included a band to show the position of RSI using three colors. Green color is shown when RSI is above both the plotted moving averages. Red color is shown when RSI is below both the plotted moving averages. And Yellow color is shown when RSI is between the two plotted moving averages. Anyone is free to use the script. Wishing everyone happy and profitable trading.
Shapeshifting Moving Average - Switching From Low-Lag To SmoothThe term "shapeshifting" is more appropriate when used with something with a shape that isn't supposed to change, this is not the case of a moving average whose shape can be altered by the length setting or even by an external factor in the case of adaptive moving averages, but i'll stick with it since it describe the purpose of the proposed moving average pretty well.
In the case of moving averages based on convolution, their properties are fully described by the moving average kernel ( set of weights ), smooth moving averages tend to have a symmetrical bell shaped kernel, while low lag moving averages have negative weights. One of the few moving averages that would let the user alter the shape of its kernel is the Arnaud Legoux moving average, which convolve the input signal with a parametric gaussian function in which the center and width can be changed by the user, however this moving average is not a low-lagging one, as the weights don't include negative values.
Other moving averages where the user can change the kernel from user settings where already presented, i posted a lot of them, but they only focused on letting the user decrease or increase the lag of the moving average, and didn't included specific parameters controlling its smoothness. This is why the shapeshifting moving average is proposed, this parametric moving average will let the user switch from a smooth moving average to a low-lagging one while controlling the amount of lag of the moving average.
Settings/Kernel Interaction
Note that it could be possible to design a specific kernel function in order to provide a more efficient approach to today goal, but the original indicator was a simple low-lag moving average based on a modification of the second derivative of the arc tangent function and because i judged the indicator a bit boring i decided to include this parametric particularity.
As said the moving average "kernel", who refer to the set of weights used by the moving average, is based on a modification of the second derivative of the arc tangent function, the arc tangent function has a "S" shaped curve, "S" shaped functions are called sigmoid functions, the first derivative of a sigmoid function is bell shaped, which is extremely nice in order to design smooth moving averages, the second derivative of a sigmoid function produce a "sinusoid" like shape ( i don't have english words to describe such shape, let me know if you have an idea ) and is great to design bandpass filters.
We modify this 2nd derivative in order to have a decreasing function with negative values near the end, and we end up with:
The function is parametric, and the user can change it ( thus changing the properties of the moving average ) by using the settings, for example an higher power value would reduce the lag of the moving average while increasing overshoots. When power < 3 the moving average can act as a slow moving average in a moving average crossover system, as weights would not include negative values.
Here power = 0 and length = 50. The shapeshifting moving average can approximate a simple moving average with very low power values, as this would make the kernel approximate a rectangular function, however this is only a curiosity and not something you should do.
As A Smooth Moving Average
“So smooth, and so tranquil. It doesn't get any quieter than this”
A smooth moving average kernel should be : symmetrical, not to width and not to sharp, bell shaped curve are often appropriates, the proposed moving average kernel can be symmetrical and can return extremely smooth results. I will use the Blackman filter as comparison.
The smooth version of the moving average can be used when the "smooth" setting is selected. Here power can only be an even number, if power is odd, power will be equal to the nearest lowest even number. When power = 0, the kernel is simply a parabola:
More smoothness can be achieved by using power = 2
In red the shapeshifting moving average, in green a Blackman filter of both length = 100. Higher values of power will create lower negative values near the border of the kernel shape, this often allow to retain information about the peaks and valleys in the input signal. Power = 6 approximate the Blackman filter pretty well.
Conclusion
A moving average using a modification of the 2nd derivative of the arc tangent function as kernel has been presented, the kernel is parametric and allow the user to switch from a low-lag moving average where the lag can be increased/decreased to a really smooth moving average.
As you can see once you get familiar with a function shape, you can know what would be the characteristics of a moving average using it as kernel, this is where you start getting intimate with moving averages.

Trend TraderDescription and Usage of the "Trend Trader" Indicator
The "Trend Trader" indicator, created by Gerardo Mercado as a legacy project, is a versatile trading tool designed to identify potential buy and sell signals across various instruments. While it provides predefined settings for popular instruments like US30, NDX100, GER40, and GOLD, it can be seamlessly adapted to any market, including forex pairs like EUR/USD. The indicator combines moving averages, time-based filters, and MACD confirmation to enhance decision-making for traders.
How It Works
Custom Moving Averages (MAs):
The indicator uses two moving averages:
Short MA: A faster-moving average (default: 10 periods).
Long MA: A slower-moving average (default: 100 periods).
Buy signals are generated when the Short MA crosses above the Long MA.
Sell signals are triggered when the Short MA crosses below the Long MA.
Time-Based Signals:
The user can define specific trading session times (start and end in UTC) to focus on high-activity periods for their chosen market.
Signals and background coloring are only active during the allowed session times.
MACD Confirmation:
A MACD (Moving Average Convergence Divergence) calculation on a 15-minute timeframe ensures stronger confirmation for signals.
Buy signals require the MACD line to be above the signal line.
Sell signals require the MACD line to be at or below the signal line.
Target Levels:
Predefined profit targets are dynamically set based on the selected trading instrument.
While it includes settings for US30, NDX100, GER40, and GOLD, the target levels can be adjusted to fit the volatility and structure of any asset, including forex pairs like EUR/USD.
Target 1 and Target 2 levels display when these thresholds are met after an entry signal.
Adaptability to Any Market:
Although predefined options are included for specific instruments, the indicator's moving averages, time settings, and MACD logic are applicable to any tradable asset, making it suitable for forex, commodities, indices, and more.
Visual Alerts:
Labels appear on the chart to highlight "BUY" and "SELL" signals at crossover points.
Additional labels indicate when price movements reach the predefined target levels.
Bar and background coloring visually represent active signals and MACD alignment.
Purpose
The indicator aims to simplify trend-following and momentum-based trading strategies. By integrating moving averages, MACD, customizable time sessions, and dynamic targets, it offers clear entry and exit points while being adaptable to the needs of individual traders across diverse markets.
How to Use
Setup:
Add the indicator to your TradingView chart.
Configure the moving average periods, trading session times, and target levels according to your preferences.
Select the instrument for predefined target settings or customize them to fit the asset you’re trading (e.g., EUR/USD or other forex pairs).
Interpreting Signals:
Buy Signal: The Short MA crosses above the Long MA, MACD confirms the upward trend, and the session is active.
Sell Signal: The Short MA crosses below the Long MA, MACD confirms the downward trend, and the session is active.
Adapt for Any Instrument:
Adjust the predefined target levels to match the volatility and trading style for your chosen asset.
For forex pairs like EUR/USD, consider typical pip movements to set appropriate profit targets.
Targets:
Use the provided target labels (e.g., 50 or 100 points) or customize them to reflect realistic profit goals based on the asset’s volatility.
Visual Aids:
Pay attention to the background color:
Greenish: Indicates a bullish trend during the allowed session.
Redish: Indicates a bearish trend during the allowed session.
Use the "BUY" and "SELL" labels for actionable insights.
This indicator is a flexible and powerful tool, suitable for traders across all markets. Its adaptability ensures that it can enhance your strategy, whether you’re trading forex, commodities, indices, or other assets. By offering actionable alerts and customizable settings, the "Trend Trader" serves as a valuable addition to any trader’s toolkit. FX:EURUSD
Clock&Flow MM+InfoThis script is an indicator that helps you visualize various moving averages directly on the price chart and gain some additional insights.
Here's what it essentially does:
Displays Different Moving Averages: You can choose to see groups of moving averages with different periods, set to nominal cyclical durations. You can also opt to configure them for instruments traded with classic or extended trading hours (great for Futures), and they'll adapt to your chosen timeframe.
Colored Bands: It allows you to add colored bands to the background of the chart that change weekly or daily, helping you visualize time cycles. You can customize the band colors.
Information Table: A small table appears in a corner of the chart, indicating which cycle the moving averages belong to (daily, weekly, monthly, etc.), corresponding to the timeframe you are using on the chart.
Customization: You can easily enable or disable the various groups of moving averages or the colored bands through the indicator's settings.

How Can You Use the Decode MAT in Your Trading?
This toolkit is incredibly versatile and can be adapted to various trading strategies:
Trend Identification:
Use longer-term MAs (e.g., 50, 100, 200 period) to identify the prevailing market trend. When prices are consistently above these MAs, it suggests an uptrend, and vice-versa.
Observe the MA ribbons: A consistently green ribbon can indicate a strong uptrend, while a red ribbon can signal a downtrend. The widening or narrowing of the ribbon can also suggest changes in trend momentum.
Dynamic Support & Resistance:
Shorter-term MAs (e.g., 10, 20 period EMAs) can act as dynamic levels of support in an uptrend or resistance in a downtrend. Look for price pullbacks to these MAs as potential entry opportunities.
Crossover Signals (Entries & Exits):
Golden Cross / Death Cross: Configure alerts for classic crossover signals. For example, a 50-period MA crossing above a 200-period MA (Golden Cross) is often seen as a long-term bullish signal. Conversely, a 50-period MA crossing below a 200-period MA (Death Cross) can be a bearish signal.
Shorter-Term Signals: Use crossovers of shorter-term MAs (e.g., EMA 10 crossing EMA 20) for more frequent, shorter-term trading signals. A fast MA crossing above a slow MA can signal a buy, while a cross below can signal a sell.
Use the on-chart symbols for quick visual confirmation of these crossover events.
Confirmation Tool:
Combine the Decode MAT with other indicators (like RSI, MACD, or volume analysis) to confirm signals and increase the probability of successful trades. For instance, a bullish MA crossover combined with an oversold RSI reading could strengthen a buy signal.
Multi-Timeframe Analysis:
Apply the toolkit across different timeframes to get a broader market perspective. A long-term uptrend on the daily chart, confirmed by a short-term bullish crossover on the 1-hour chart, can provide a higher-confidence entry.
The DECODE Moving Average Toolkit empowers you to tailor your MA analysis precisely to your needs.
Heikinisi Candle (With MA + Smoothing + Buy/Sell with Cooldown)This custom Heikinisi Candle (With MA + Smoothing + Buy/Sell with Cooldown) indicator combines the advantages of Heikin-Ashi candles with the flexibility of multiple moving averages and smoothing options. The built-in buy/sell signals with cooldown functionality help traders avoid overtrading while capturing trend reversals and momentum shifts. Whether you're a day trader, swing trader, or long-term investor, this indicator offers powerful tools for analyzing price action and making informed trading decisions.
Note: Disable the regular candle to get better visualization.
Key Features:
Custom Heikin-Ashi Candles:
The core feature of this script is the Heikin-Ashi candles, which are known for smoothing price action and helping traders identify market trends more clearly.
Unlike traditional Heikin-Ashi, this version adjusts the Heikin-Ashi close based on specific price action patterns, including rejection signals and engulfing patterns.
The custom Heikin-Ashi open also incorporates momentum, adjusting dynamically based on recent price changes.
Price Action Measurements:
The indicator measures key price action components, including:
Body: The absolute difference between the open and close.
Candle Range: The total range from high to low.
Upper Wick: The distance from the highest price to the maximum of open or close.
Lower Wick: The distance from the lowest price to the minimum of open or close.
These measurements help detect bullish and bearish conditions, as well as price rejection signals.
Buy/Sell Signal Logic:
Buy Signal: Triggered when the Heikin-Ashi close is above the chosen moving average (MA1), with a cooldown period to avoid too frequent signals.
Sell Signal: Triggered when the Heikin-Ashi close falls below the MA1 after a buy signal has already been issued.
The cooldown period ensures that buy and sell signals are spaced apart by a specific number of bars, preventing excessive signal generation during periods of price consolidation.
Multiple Moving Averages (MA):
This script supports up to three customizable moving averages (MA1, MA2, MA3), each of which can be set to different types and lengths, including:
Simple Moving Average (SMA)
Exponential Moving Average (EMA)
Weighted Moving Average (WMA)
Volume Weighted Moving Average (VWMA)
Volume Weighted Moving Price (VWMP)
Least Squares Moving Average (LSMA)
Hull Moving Average (HMA)
Double Exponential Moving Average (DEMA)
Triple Exponential Moving Average (TEMA)
Users can adjust the length and type of each MA for tailored analysis.
Smoothing Options for MAs:
Users can smooth the output of MAs using various types of smoothing algorithms (SMA, EMA, LSMA, WMA, Gaussian) and a customizable length. This helps to reduce noise in the moving average lines and provides clearer signals.
Gaussian Filter (Advanced Smoothing):
A Gaussian Filter is available as a smoothing option for MAs. This filter reduces noise and makes the moving averages smoother, which can be particularly helpful in volatile or choppy markets.
Alerts and Visualization:
The script allows users to plot buy and sell signals on the chart with distinctive markers. A Buy Signal is shown below the bar with a lime green marker and text "Buy," while a Sell Signal is shown above the bar with a red marker and text "Sell."
Traders can also set up alerts based on the buy/sell signals to get notified in real time.
Indicator Configuration:
Heikin-Ashi Candle Configuration:
Automatically adjusts Heikin-Ashi candles based on rejection signals, engulfing patterns, and momentum. It uses custom formulas for the Heikin-Ashi open and close, making it more sensitive to price action than standard Heikin-Ashi candles.
Moving Averages (MA) Configuration:
You can select from multiple moving average types and lengths (MA1, MA2, MA3) for trend-following analysis.
Choose between SMA, EMA, WMA, VWMA, VWMP, LSMA, HMA, DEMA, and TEMA.
Smoothing Options:
Enable or disable smoothing for the moving averages.
Select from different smoothing types, including SMA, EMA, RMA, WMA, LSMA, and Gaussian.
Cooldown Period:
Control the number of bars that must pass before a new buy/sell signal is triggered. This cooldown period helps prevent excessive trading signals in quick succession.
How to Use:
Analyze Price Action with Heikin-Ashi Candles:
The custom Heikin-Ashi candles are ideal for spotting market trends, reversals, and price rejection. Use the candle patterns to gauge the market sentiment.
Use MAs for Trend Confirmation:
The moving averages (MA1, MA2, MA3) can help identify the prevailing trend. A price above a rising MA indicates an uptrend, while a price below a falling MA suggests a downtrend.
Trigger Buy and Sell Signals:
When the Heikin-Ashi close crosses above MA1, a buy signal is triggered.
When the Heikin-Ashi close crosses below MA1 after a buy signal, a sell signal is triggered.
The cooldown period ensures that signals are spaced out, preventing overtrading.
Use Smoothing for Clearer Signals:
If you are trading in a volatile market, you can use the smoothing options to make the MAs smoother and reduce noise.

Volume Weighted Jurik Moving AverageThe Jurik Moving Average (JMA) is a smoothing indicator that is designed to improve upon traditional moving averages by reducing lag while enhancing responsiveness to price movements. It was created by Jurik Research and is often used to track trends with greater accuracy and minimal delay. The JMA is based on a combination of **exponential smoothing** and **phase adjustments**, making it more adaptable to varying market conditions compared to standard moving averages like SMA (Simple Moving Average) or EMA (Exponential Moving Average).
The core advantage of the JMA lies in its ability to adjust to price changes without excessively lagging, which is a common issue with traditional moving averages. It incorporates a **phase parameter** that can be adjusted to smooth out the signal further or make it more responsive to recent price action. This phase adjustment allows traders to fine-tune the JMA's sensitivity to the market, optimizing it for different timeframes and trading strategies.
How JMA Works and Benefits of Adding Volume Weight
The JMA works by applying a **smoothing process** to price data while allowing for adjustments through its phase and power parameters. These parameters help control the degree of smoothness and responsiveness. The result is a curve that follows price trends closely but with less lag than traditional moving averages.
Adding **volume weighting** to the JMA enhances its ability to reflect market activity more accurately. Just like the **Volume-Weighted Moving Average (VWMA)**, volume-weighting adjusts the moving average based on the strength of trading volume, meaning that price movements with higher volume will have a greater influence on the JMA. This can help traders identify trends that are supported by significant market participation, making the moving average more reliable.
The benefit of a volume-weighted JMA is that it responds more effectively to price movements that occur during periods of high trading volume, which are often considered more significant. This can help traders avoid false signals that may occur during low-volume periods when price changes may not reflect true market sentiment. By incorporating volume into the calculation, the JMA becomes more aligned with real market conditions, enhancing its effectiveness for trend identification and decision-making.

WPR Volume Candle [Atareum]AWPRVC (Atareum WPR Volume Candles) is clearly an awesome indicator produced by AtareumFX that is based on William’s Percent Range concepts by combination with volume. This is a new approach of volume candles that is combined with R% concepts and creates such a powerful tool to trace the market and assists traders to make better decisions surly and so much accurate. You can find this new indicator more useful because it has all benefits and advantages of William’s R% and cover its disadvantages. Also it is more powerful because of using volume in its calculations and generate a new candles which is more reliable and trustworthy.
Concept:
Using William’s Percent leading periods and calculations on redesigning new candles in combination with volume, that makes unique reform candles, but these new candles with their new cloud system clearly response to any reasonable price movement with so much information.
As you know if use R% there are some misleading fake signals generate by oscillator, also it could not show any sign of price moving trend which is almost confusing for beginners or even a pro trader! And finally this oscillator is so sensitive to price change that is so creepy to use for most of traders.
This new AWPRVC solve the problem and make all of them handy and useful for you.
The cloud system which is designed in AWPRVC shows the price trend moving from Bearish Zone (-100 to -50 percent) to Bullish Zone (-50 to 0 percent). You can trust the lead moving forward of the clouds in two separate Top and Bottom (Bull and Bear) lines which solely determine the trend and power of price moving. When clouds are close to each other means we continue the trend and when they get far away from each other means we will face powerful trend in near future. If they are in Bearish Zone we continue the selling pressure and vice versa. Following picture shows good sample of Long and Short positions in compare with so many fake signals generated on original R%.
Besides the cloud system of AWPRVC which is clearly show the price trend and it is completely enough for being sure about price moving trend, you can use moving average which is designated in it to confirm the price trend, also.
Also you can see this new AWPRVC candle by using volume within its conformation, make reasonable price candles which is no so sensitive and so creepy and make your decisions come true in peace and clear sense of market moves. You can see following picture which is showing although the real price candles are so unclear and nonsense of making decision but the AWPRVC candles lead you to make true and trustable position.
As you see this new combination of Williams R% oscillator with volume and also generating a perfect new cloud system will clearly help traders even pro to trust the signals and understand whole market movement better and all of original problems of R% solved and even make a most powerful, trustworthy and useful new indicator.
Parameters:
Section 1 : Candle colour setting for flourishing just as you desire !
Section 2 : Defining Periods of R% and source of candle data in combination with determining the smoothing type of moving averages and signal period.
Section 3 : Select using Standard candles alongside with redesigned cloud calculation type and three additional moving averages which can plot on each newly generated candles and standard candles on a chart with the type mode defined in the previous section.
Note: if you want to omit any or all of these moving averages, you can use 0 in period, instead of selecting "None" in the plot moving option!
Usage :
Overall:
Regardless of the additional moving averages which will lead to so many situations of market according to their types and designs, that is four different period for new redesign AWPRVC and three period for standard chart. You can easily select periods and type for these moving averages. Also, do not forget that signal moving averages is shown only on AWPRVC chart and have two different colour for upward and downward trends. Other moving averages are plot by just one single colour.
Cloud levels are so important because AWPRVC candles show respect to them and when they break the clouds upward or downward it is surly beginning of a trend. Do not forget we have 5 levels for tracing new AWPRVC candles move as follows : Ready for Short \ Long, Surly Short \ Long and Turn Trend which is in middle range of movement percent. Each level clearly shows what it means by its name.
Support and Resistance:
Any consolidation of AWPRVC candles in Ready for Short or Long Zones means the support or resistance level due to its nature, but important thing is how long the candles lasts in there or how many times repeated in the same level in AWPRVC chart zone in future.
For plotting the support or resistance you should trace range of AWPRVC candles consolidated and plot zone in standard chart candles just like following picture.
Divergence:
When standard price candles move downward but we see upward trend in clouds of AWPRVC candles that means we should face Bullish Trend because of the divergence and vice versa. You can see perfect example in following picture.
Signal:
Alert of Long :
Bullish candle cross both cloud down and up level simultaneously.
Confirmed Long :
AWPRVC candles cross up turn trend level and pullback to cloud up level.
Take profit of Long:
Any cross down of the AWPRVC candles from surly short level of chart.
Alert of Short :
Bearish candle cross both cloud up and down level simultaneously.
Confirmed Short :
AWPRVC candles cross down turn trend level and pullback to cloud down level.
Take profit of Short:
Any cross up of the AWPRVC candles from surly long level of chart.
Notes:
Use moving averages cross of standard chart candles as lead to be in positions more as they are good representative of trend.
As long as AWPRVC candles or Cloud levels are in Bullish Zone, you can stay in Long positions.
Cloud level thickness means the power of trend and can be use as confirmation of powerful trend, so when cloud levels tight or going to cross each other it means the trend is going to be reversed.
It is the result of many years of experience in markets and there are so many details about this AWPRVC chart which I am in the experiment phase to publish in the future, so please help me with your ideas and do not hesitate to comment and inform me any suggestions or criticism.

## 1. Introduction to the RSI and Moving Averages
### **1.1 Relative Strength Index (RSI)**
The Relative Strength Index (RSI) is a momentum oscillator developed by J. Welles Wilder and introduced in his 1978 book "New Concepts in Technical Trading Systems." It is widely used in technical analysis to measure the speed and change of price movements.
**Purpose of RSI:**
- **Identify Overbought/Oversold Conditions:** RSI values range from 0 to 100. Traditionally, values above 70 are considered overbought, while values below 30 are considered oversold. These thresholds help traders identify potential reversal points in the market.
- **Trend Strength Measurement:** RSI also indicates the strength of a trend. High RSI values suggest strong bullish momentum, while low values indicate bearish momentum.
**Calculation of RSI:**
1. **Calculate the Average Gain and Loss:** Over a specified period (e.g., 14 days), calculate the average gain and loss.
2. **Compute the Relative Strength (RS):** RS is the ratio of average gain to average loss.
3. **RSI Formula:** RSI = 100 - (100 / (1 + RS))
### **1.2 Moving Averages (MA)**
Moving Averages are used to smooth out price data and identify trends by filtering out short-term fluctuations. Two common types are:
**Simple Moving Average (SMA):** The average of prices over a specified number of periods.
**Exponential Moving Average (EMA):** A type of moving average that gives more weight to recent prices, making it more responsive to recent price changes.
**Smoothed Moving Average (SMA):** Used to reduce the impact of volatility and provide a clearer view of the underlying trend. The RMA, or Running Moving Average, used in the USH script is similar to an EMA but based on the average of RSI values.
## 2. Detailed Breakdown of the Uptrick: RSI Histogram
### **2.1 Indicator Overview**
The Uptrick: RSI Histogram (USH) is a technical analysis tool that combines the RSI with a moving average to create a histogram that reflects momentum and trend strength.
**Key Components:**
- **RSI Calculation:** Determines the relative strength of price movements.
- **Moving Average Application:** Smooths the RSI values to provide a clearer trend indication.
- **Histogram Plotting:** Visualizes the deviation of the smoothed RSI from a neutral level.
### **2.2 Indicator Purpose**
The primary purpose of the USH is to provide a clear visual representation of the market's momentum and trend strength. It helps traders identify:
- **Bullish and Bearish Trends:** By showing how far the smoothed RSI is from the neutral 50 level.
- **Potential Reversal Points:** By highlighting changes in momentum.
### **2.3 Indicator Design**
**RSI Moving Average (RSI MA):** The RSI MA is a smoothed version of the RSI, calculated using a running moving average. This smooths out short-term fluctuations and provides a clearer indication of the underlying trend.
**Histogram Calculation:**
- **Neutral Level:** The histogram is plotted relative to the neutral level of 50. This level represents a balanced market where neither bulls nor bears have dominance.
- **Histogram Values:** The histogram bars show the difference between the RSI MA and the neutral level. Positive values indicate bullish momentum, while negative values indicate bearish momentum.
## 3. Calculation and Formula
### **3.1 RSI Calculation**
The RSI calculation involves:
1. **Average Gain and Loss:** Calculated over the specified length (e.g., 14 periods).
2. **Relative Strength (RS):** RS = Average Gain / Average Loss.
3. **RSI Formula:** RSI = 100 - (100 / (1 + RS)).
### **3.2 Moving Average Calculation**
For the USH indicator, the RSI is smoothed using a running moving average (RMA). The RMA formula is similar to that of the EMA but is based on averaging RSI values over the specified length.
### **3.3 Histogram Calculation**
The histogram value is calculated as:
- **Histogram Value = RSI MA - 50**
**Plotting the Histogram:**
- **Positive Histogram Values:** Indicate that the RSI MA is above the neutral level, suggesting bullish momentum.
- **Negative Histogram Values:** Indicate that the RSI MA is below the neutral level, suggesting bearish momentum.
## 4. Visual Representation
### **4.1 Histogram Bars**
The histogram is plotted as bars on the chart:
- **Bullish Bars:** Colored green when the RSI MA is above 50.
- **Bearish Bars:** Colored red when the RSI MA is below 50.
### **4.2 Customization Options**
Traders can customize:
- **RSI Length:** Adjust the length of the RSI calculation to match their trading style.
- **Bull and Bear Colors:** Choose colors for histogram bars to enhance visual clarity.
### **4.3 Interpretation**
**Bullish Signal:** A histogram bar that moves from red to green indicates a potential shift to a bullish trend.
**Bearish Signal:** A histogram bar that moves from green to red indicates a potential shift to a bearish trend.
## 5. Customization and User Settings
### **5.1 Adjusting RSI Length**
The length parameter determines the number of periods over which the RSI is calculated and smoothed. Shorter lengths make the RSI more sensitive to price changes, while longer lengths provide a smoother view of trends.
### **5.2 Color Settings**
Traders can adjust:
- **Bull Color:** Color of histogram bars indicating bullish momentum.
- **Bear Color:** Color of histogram bars indicating bearish momentum.
**Customization Benefits:**
- **Visual Clarity:** Traders can choose colors that stand out against their chart’s background.
- **Personal Preference:** Adjust settings to match individual trading styles and preferences.
## 6. Trading Strategies and Applications
### **6.1 Trend Following**
**Identifying Entry Points:**
- **Bullish Entry:** When the histogram changes from red to green, it signals a potential entry point for long positions.
- **Bearish Entry:** When the histogram changes from green to red, it signals a potential entry point for short positions.
**Trend Confirmation:** The histogram helps confirm the strength of a trend. Strong, consistent green bars indicate robust bullish momentum, while strong, consistent red bars indicate robust bearish momentum.
### **6.2 Swing Trading**
**Momentum Analysis:**
- **Entry Signals:** Look for significant shifts in the histogram to time entries. A shift from bearish to bullish (red to green) indicates potential for upward movement.
- **Exit Signals:** A shift from bullish to bearish (green to red) suggests a potential weakening of the trend, signaling an exit or reversal point.
### **6.3 Range Trading**
**Market Conditions:**
- **Consolidation:** The histogram close to zero suggests a range-bound market. Traders can use this information to identify support and resistance levels.
- **Breakout Potential:** A significant move away from the neutral level may indicate a potential breakout from the range.
### **6.4 Risk Management**
**Stop-Loss Placement:**
- **Bullish Positions:** Place stop-loss orders below recent support levels when the histogram is green.
- **Bearish Positions:** Place stop-loss orders above recent resistance levels when the histogram is red.
**Position Sizing:** Adjust position sizes based on the strength of the histogram signals. Strong trends (indicated by larger histogram bars) may warrant larger positions, while weaker signals suggest smaller positions.
## 7. Risk Management
### **7.1 Importance of Risk Management**
Effective risk management is crucial for long-term trading success. It involves protecting capital, managing losses, and optimizing trade setups.
### **7.2 Using USH for Risk Management**
**Stop-Loss and Take-Profit Levels:**
- **Stop-Loss Orders:** Use the histogram to set stop-loss levels based on trend strength. For instance, place stops below support levels in bullish trends and above resistance levels in bearish trends.
- **Take-Profit Targets:** Adjust take-profit levels based on histogram changes. For example, lock in profits as the histogram starts to shift from green to red.
**Position Sizing:**
- **Trend Strength:** Scale position sizes based on the strength of histogram signals. Larger histogram bars indicate stronger trends, which may justify larger positions.
- **Volatility:** Consider market volatility and adjust position sizes to mitigate risk.
## 8. Case Studies and Examples
### **8.1 Example 1: Bullish Trend**
**Scenario:** A trader notices a transition from red to green histogram bars.
**Analysis:**
- **Entry Point:** The transition indicates a potential bullish trend. The trader decides to enter a long position.

**Outcome:** The bullish trend continues, and the histogram remains green, providing a profitable trade setup.
### **8.2 Example 2: Bearish Trend**
**Scenario:** A trader observes a transition from green to red histogram bars.
**Analysis:**
- **Entry Point:** The transition suggests a potential
bearish trend. The trader decides to enter a short position.
- **Stop-Loss:** Set stop-loss above recent resistance levels.
- **Take-Profit:** Consider taking profits as the histogram approaches zero or shifts to green.
**Outcome:** The bearish trend continues, and the histogram remains red, resulting in a successful trade.
