Ultimate Trader Oscillator - UTO v1Note; this is experimental / learning work -- has nothing to do with the existing "Ultimate Oscillator" -- i call this project UTOpia :)
This is based on some research work i was doing around the Balance Of Power - which i posted about in the past
the conclusion form there was a questions of, what would we get if we create an indicator that takes into consideration other factors that may be affecting momentum - so while the classic Balance of Power formula looks at where the open and close of a bar are compared to the full bar range, this is only a small part of the insight we need - when we visually inspect a price chart, we also look at many other factors. for example, how the bar closes compared to previous bar(s), how much did the bulls (or bears) managed to move the high (or low) of the bar compared to previous one, how much volume, how is the price spread ...etc
so i wanted to build an indicator that does exactly that - we will give a score of +100 / -100 to each bar based on these factors (some were identified in the linked post) -- imagine here that we are a judge in a tug of war contest (or a beauty contest if you would :)) and we give a score to the participating teams - the scores are given in different "categories" as these teams make effort to win the game (each bar) - to be totally fair, in some scoring categories, we choose to take the average of 3 points for a fair assessment - the final score is calculated based on the average from all judges - and then and average over the desired length is calculated. this score should be very fair and represents the true effort from all angles, right? that would be our UTOPIA :)
in our case, we don't use an average of total score after each category is evaluated, but rather create a directional index (similar to RSI) -- so we can avoid big spikes in the resulting numbers, and maintain a oscillator -like result.
-- the code is commented to explain the various pieces - and how the scoring happen.
the results are interesting - and you can see how the UTO stacks against the classic RSI and BoP - but it's more of a work to build on, rather than a usable indicator - although i do use it in my own trading :)
one final thought here, i came to learn after few years that the best indicators do not necessarily lead to profitable trading. from an indicator standpoint, if everyone else is trading using (for example) a moving average crossover or RSI, then a successful trader should be looking at these classic indicators too, cause these common indicators will drive the mass behavior - and will at many times trigger "self- fulfilling prophesies" in price action - but that's not the only or the biggest reason - the big reasons have to do with the fact that trading needs a lot of effort outside the charts, in researching markets, learning the discipline, then managing positions and managing the portfolio. these are all big topics to put in such short words.
i hope some will find this work inspiring.

JJ Highlight Time Ranges with First 5 Minutes and LabelsTo effectively use this Pine Script as a day trader , here’s how the various elements can help you manage trades, track time sessions, and monitor price movements:
Key Components for a Day Trader:
1. First 5-Minute Highlight:
- Purpose: Day traders often rely on the first 5 minutes of the trading session to gauge market sentiment, watch for opening price gaps, or plan entries. This script draws a horizontal line at the high or low of the first 5 minutes, which can act as a key level for the rest of the day.
- How to Use: If the price breaks above or below the first 5-minute line, it can signal momentum. You might enter a long position if the price breaks above the first 5-minute high or a short if it breaks below the first 5-minute low.
2. Session Time Highlights:
- Morning Session (9:15–10:30 AM): The market often shows its strongest price action during the first hour of trading. This session is highlighted in yellow. You can use this highlight to focus on the most volatile period, as this is when large institutional moves tend to occur.
- Afternoon Session (12:30–2:55 PM): The blue highlight helps you track the mid-afternoon session, where liquidity may decrease, and price action can sometimes be choppier. Day traders should be more cautious during this period.
- How to Use: By highlighting these key times, you can:
- Focus on key breakouts during the morning session.
- Be more conservative in your trades during the afternoon, as market volatility may drop.
3. Dynamic Labels:
- Top/Bottom Positioning: The script places labels dynamically based on the selected position (Top or Bottom). This allows you to quickly glance at the session's start and identify where you are in terms of time.
- How to Use: Use these labels to remind yourself when major time segments (morning or afternoon) begin. You can adjust your trading strategy depending on the session, e.g., being more aggressive in the morning and more cautious in the afternoon.
Trading Strategy Suggestions:
1. Momentum Trades:
- After the first 5 minutes, use the high/low of that period to set up breakout trades.
- Long Entry: If the price breaks the high of the first 5 minutes (especially if there's a strong trend).
- Short Entry: If the price breaks the low of the first 5 minutes, signaling a potential downtrend.
2. Session-Based Strategy:
- Morning Session (9:15–10:30 AM):
- Look for strong breakout patterns such as support/resistance levels, moving average crossovers, or candlestick patterns (like engulfing candles or pin bars).
- This is a high liquidity period, making it ideal for executing quick trades.
- Afternoon Session (12:30–2:55 PM):
- The market tends to consolidate or show less volatility. Scalping and mean-reversion strategies work better here.
- Avoid chasing big moves unless you see a clear breakout in either direction.
3. Support and Resistance:
- The first 5-minute high/low often acts as a key support or resistance level for the rest of the day. If the price holds above or below this level, it’s an indication of trend continuation.
4. Breakout Confirmation:
- Look for breakouts from the highlighted session time ranges (e.g., 9:15 AM–10:30 AM or 12:30 PM–2:55 PM).
- If a breakout happens during a key time window, combine that with other technical indicators like volume spikes , RSI , or MACD for confirmation.
---
Example Day Trader Usage:
1. First 5 Minutes Strategy: After the market opens at 9:15 AM, watch the price action for the first 5 minutes. The high and low of these 5 minutes are critical levels. If the price breaks above the high of the first 5 minutes, it might indicate a strong bullish trend for the day. Conversely, breaking below the low may suggest bearish movement.
2. Morning Session: After the first 5 minutes, focus on the **9:15 AM–10:30 AM** window. During this time, look for breakout setups at key support/resistance levels, especially when paired with high volume or momentum indicators. This is when many institutions make large trades, so price action tends to be more volatile and predictable.
3. Afternoon Session: From 12:30 PM–2:55 PM, the market might experience lower volatility, making it ideal for scalping or range-bound strategies. You could look for reversals or fading strategies if the market becomes too quiet.
Conclusion:
As a day trader, you can use this script to:
- Track and react to key price levels during the first 5 minutes.
- Focus on high volatility in the morning session (9:15–10:30 AM) and **be cautious** during the afternoon.
- Use session-based timing to adjust your strategies based on the time of day.
Adjustable Correction from ATH SignalA "Correction Signal from All-Time High" is an indicator used to identify potential reversals or pullbacks in an asset's price after it has reached its highest historical level, known as an all-time high (ATH). This signal typically occurs when the price begins to decline after hitting the ATH, suggesting a correction phase where the asset retraces part of its upward movement.
Key elements of this signal include:
Overbought Conditions: The asset may have experienced a strong rally leading to an overbought condition, where the price could be considered too high relative to recent trends.
Reversal Patterns: The correction signal is often accompanied by technical patterns or indicators that suggest a reversal, such as bearish candlestick formations, negative divergence in momentum indicators, or moving average crossovers.
Percentage Decline: A correction is generally defined as a price drop of at least 10% from the ATH, although smaller pullbacks may also signal potential market shifts.
Volume Analysis: Increased selling volume after the ATH can validate the correction signal, indicating that more market participants are taking profits or exiting positions.
This signal helps traders and investors anticipate periods of market consolidation or potential downturns after significant price advances, allowing for better risk management or entry points for new positions.
Ranges and Breakouts [AlgoAlpha]💥 Ranges and Breakouts by AlgoAlpha is a dynamic indicator designed for traders seeking to identify market ranges and capitalize on breakout opportunities. This tool automatically detects ranges based on price action over a specified period, visualizing these ranges with shaded boxes and midlines, making it easy to spot potential breakout scenarios. The indicator includes advanced features such as customizable pivot detection, internal range allowance, and automatic trend color changes for quick market analysis.
Key Features
💹 Dynamic Range Detection : Automatically identifies market ranges using customizable look-back and confirmation periods.
🎯 Breakout Alerts : Get alerted to bullish and bearish breakouts for potential trading opportunities.
📊 Visual Aids : Displays pivot highs/lows within ranges and plots midlines with adjustable styles for easier market trend interpretation.
🔔 Alerts : Signals potential take-profit points based on volatility and moving average crossovers.
🎨 Customizable Appearance : Choose between solid, dashed, or dotted lines for midlines and adjust the colors for bullish and bearish zones.
How to Use
⭐ Add the Indicator : Add the indicator to favorites by pressing the star icon. Adjust the settings like the look-back period, confirmation length, and pivot detection to match your trading strategy.
👀 Monitor the Chart : Watch for new ranges to form, highlighted by shaded boxes on the chart. Midlines and range bounds will appear to help you gauge potential breakout points.
⚡ React to Breakouts : Pay attention to color changes and alert signals for bullish or bearish breakouts. Use these signals to enter or exit trades.
🔔 Set Alerts : Customize alert conditions for new range formations, breakout signals, and take-profit levels to stay on top of market movements without constant monitoring.
How It Works
The indicator detects price ranges by analyzing the highest and lowest prices over a specified period. It confirms a range if these levels remain unchanged for a set number of bars, at which point it visually marks the range with shaded boxes. Pivots are identified within these ranges, and a midline is plotted to help interpret potential breakouts. When price breaks out of these defined ranges, the indicator changes the chart's background color to signal a bullish or bearish trend. Alerts can be set for range formation, breakouts, and take-profit opportunities, helping traders stay proactive in volatile markets.
Squeeze Momentum Strategy [LazyBear] Buy Sell TP SL Alerts-Modified version of Squeeze Momentum Indicator by @LazyBear.
-Converted to version 5,
-Taken inspiration from @KivancOzbilgic for its buy sell calculations,
-Used @Bunghole strategy template with Take Profit, Stop Loss and Enable/Disable Toggles
-Added Custom Date Backtesting Module
------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
All credit goes to above
Problem with original version:
The original Squeeze Momentum Strategy did not have buy sell signals and there was alot of confusion as to when to enter and exit.
There was no proper strategy that would allow backtesting on which further analysis could be carried out.
There are 3 aspects this strategy:
1 ) Strategy Logic (easily toggleable from the dropdown menu from strategy settings)
- LazyBear (I have made this simple by using Kivanc technique of Momentums Moving Average Crossover, BUY when MA cross above signal line, SELL when crossdown signal line)
- Zero Crossover Line (BUY signal when crossover zero line, and SELL crossdown zero line)
2) Long Short TP and SL
- In strategies there is usually only 1 SL and 1 TP, and it is assumed that if a 2% SL giving a good profit %, then it would be best for both long and short. However this is not the case for many. Many markets/pairs, go down with much more speed then they go up with. Hence once we have a profitable backtesting setting, then we should start optimizing Long and Short SL's seperately. Once that is done, we should start optimizing for Long and Short TP's separately, starting with Longs first in both cases.
3) Enable and Disable Toggles of Long and Short Trades
- Many markets dont allow short trades, or are not suitable for short trades. In this case it would be much more feasible to disable "Short" Trading and see results of Long Only as a built in graphic view of backtestor provides a more easy to understand data feed as compared to the performance summary in which you have to review long and short profitability separately.
4) Custom Data Backtesting
- One of most crucial aspects while optimizing for backtesting is to check a strategies performance on uptrends, downtrend and sideways markets seperately as to understand the weak points of strategy.
- Once you enable custom date backtesting, you will see lines on the chart which can be dragged left right based on where you want to start and end the backtesting from and to.
Note:
- Not a financial advise
- Open to feedback, questions, improvements, errors etc.

Happy Trading!

Ranging Market Detector [AstrideUnicorn]Determining if the market is in a trend or a range regime is a very complex problem. And knowing the answer can be, in some situations, the real holy grail. If the trader knows when the market is in a range regime, they can avoid overtrading and make moving average crossover strategies more profitable. A regime switch from a trend to a range can be a signal to close open positions. It can also be helpful when trading such instruments as short-term binary options. When the market is ranging directional moves are not expected, and the trader should be careful as opening a position in such conditions is, by some degree, a random outcome game. Range breakouts trading is one more example when knowing the market regime is critical.
We have created an indicator that predicts the current market regime. It smooths the price using the Kalman filter and analyzes the curve's slope. If the absolute value of the slope is low, then the market is in range mode and vice versa. To distinguish between the two regimes, the algorithm compares the absolute value of the slope with its long-term average.
HOW TO USE
The indicator shows the difference between the absolute slope value and its long-term average as a histogram. When a bar of the histogram is higher than the threshold level presented by the red line, the market is in a trending regime. In this regime, the background of the indicator is blue. When the market is in a range regime, the indicator background turns red.
The threshold level helps to control the lag. The greater it is, the more lagging the indicator will be. By default, this value is set to a negative value. It means that the indicator switches from range to trend a little bit earlier than the slope gets higher than the average slope. You can use the value of zero or low negative values to find the optimal tradeoff between the strength of the signals and their lag.
SETTINGS
The indicator has one input parameter called Threshold. It sets the threshold level described above. Its value should be close to zero. The less the value is, the less is the indicator's lag, but at the same time, the less confirmed the regime-switching signals are.
The use cases can be very different. And as the code is open, you can also use the indicator as a building block for your custom trading strategies.

RSI EMA CrossOver RameshThe RSI is one of the most popular technical indicators. The RSI measures the internal strength of the security. The RSI indicator oscillates between oversold and over bought levels, where a trader is advised to look for buying opportunities when the stock is in over sold region and selling opportunities when the stock is in over bought region.
The RSI with EMA strategy signals a trade when EMA of 7 period RSI crosses over the EMA of a 14 period RSI.
Buy: when 10 EMA of 7 period RSI crossing up 10 EMA of a 14 period RSI
Sell: when 10 EMA of 7 period RSI crossing down 10 EMA of a 14 period RSI
EMA = Exponential Moving Average
Crossover = Simple crossover between current RSI values and its 10 day EMA
CANX MA Crossover© CanxStixTrader
Moving average crossover systems measure drift in the market. They are great strategies for time-limited traders. KEEP IT SIMPLE
This strategy works both for buys and sells using the reaction line to guide your position against the reactions.
HOW TO USE THE INDICATOR
1) Choose your market and timeframe.
2) Choose the length.
3) Choose the multiplier.
4) Choose if the strategy is long-only or bidirectional (longs & shorts).
TIPS
The strategy works best in bullish markets as that is the primary direction that market such as stocks, indexes and metals like to move.
- Increase the multiplier to reduce whipsaws
- Increase the length to take fewer trades
- Decrease the length to take more trades
- Try a Long-Only strategy to see if that performs better.
The base set up when you load the indicator is for the 1 minute chart on gold. We found that it also works well on the US Indexes. For other markets you may need to change the length and multiplier to suit the market and back test its results.
Quad Rotation StochasticQuad Rotation Stochastic
The Quad Rotation Stochastic is a powerful and unique momentum oscillator that combines four different stochastic setups into one tool, providing an incredibly detailed view of market conditions. This multi-timeframe stochastic approach helps traders better anticipate trend continuations, reversals, and momentum shifts with greater precision than traditional single stochastic indicators.
Why this indicator is useful:
Multi-layered Momentum Analysis: Instead of relying on one stochastic, this script tracks four independent stochastic readings, smoothing out noise and confirming stronger signals.
Advanced Divergence Detection: It automatically identifies bullish and bearish divergences for each stochastic, helping traders spot potential reversals early.
Background Color Alerts: When a configurable number (e.g., 3 or 4) of the stochastics agree in direction and position (overbought/oversold), the background colors green (bullish) or red (bearish) to give instant visual cues.
ABCD Pattern Recognition: The script recognizes "shield" patterns when Stochastic 4 remains stuck at extreme levels (above 90 or below 10) for a set time, warning of potential trend continuation setups.
Super Signal Alerts: If all four stochastics align in extreme conditions and slope in the same direction, the indicator plots a special "Super Signal," offering high-confidence entry opportunities.
Why this indicator is unique:
Quad Confirmation Logic: Combining four different stochastics makes this tool much less prone to false signals compared to using a single stochastic.
Customizable Divergence Coloring: Traders can choose to have divergence lines automatically match the stochastic color for clear visual association.
Adaptive ABCD Shields: Innovative use of bar counting while a stochastic remains extreme acts as a "shield," offering a unique way to filter out minor fake-outs.
Flexible Configuration: Each stochastic's sensitivity, divergence settings, and visual styling can be fully customized, allowing traders to adapt it to their own strategy and asset.
Example Usage: Trading Bitcoin with Quad Rotation Stochastic
When trading Bitcoin (BTCUSD), you might set the minimum count (minCount) to 3, meaning three out of four stochastics must be in agreement to trigger a background color.
If the background turns green, and you notice an ABCD Bullish Shield (Green X), you might look for bullish candlestick patterns or moving average crossovers to enter a long trade.
Conversely, if the background turns red and a Super Down Signal appears, it suggests high probability for further downside, giving you strong confirmation to either short BTC or avoid entering new longs.
By combining divergence signals with background colors and the ABCD shields, the Quad Rotation Stochastic provides a layered confirmation system that gives traders greater confidence in their entries and exits — particularly in fast-moving, volatile markets like Bitcoin.
Trend Following with Donchian Channels and MACDThis is a trend following system based on the Donchian Channels. Instead of using a simple moving average crossover, this system uses the MACD as the trendfilter:
Long positions:
* Price makes a new 50 day high,
* The MACD-line crosses above or is above the Signal-line.
* Both the MACD and the Signal-lines are above the zero-line.
Short positions:
* Price makes a new 50 day low,
* The MACD-line crosses below or is below the Signal-line.
* Both the MACD and the Signal-lines are below the zero-line.
Stoploss:
The initial and the trailing stoploss are 4 ATRs away from the price.
Trend Persistence Rate Indicator [CC]The Trend Persistence Rate Indicator was created by Richard Poster (Stocks and Commodities Feb 2021 pg 12) and this indicator is a good trend strength indicator similar to ADX. A good strategy with this indicator according to the author is to combine this with a moving average crossover strategy and a volatility indicator. Buy when the price crosses over the moving average and when the volatility and this indicator are over a selected minimum. I think 30-40 as a minimum for this indicator works well. Exit that position when this indicator peaks and starts to go down and it should be very profitable for you. I have included general buy and sell signals with this indicator as well.
Let me know if there are any other indicators you would like to see me publish!
Altcoin correlation MeterDear TV'ers,
Hereby a script where the relative strength of an (in this case) altcoin is measured. The script produces a correlation between the altcoin and total altcoin market (Total2 index, see script). Using this script you can see when there is a strong correlation between the two and when there isn't. Moreover, it also produces long/short signals using hull moving average crossover.
Long signals are produced when correlation is below 0 and the hma of the pair is higher than the lagging hma.
Short signals are produced when correlation is below 0 and the hma of the pair is lower than the lagging hma.
Short/Long is closed after correlation is going back towards a set correlation target as well as the Take profit percentage is reached.
In the above example the script is applied to one of my favorite altcoin projects (rose).
Looking forward to feedback/suggestions.

SPX-VIX Intraday DivergenceAs a long-term buyer/short-seller, you will always find different ways to enter the market , moving average crossovers, breakouts , overbought/oversold conditions being some of the classy methods. However, they are decreasingly effective... 😢
Recently I have realized that analysis beyond the technical indicators will bring trading to the next level because I will be able to confirm my trading signals without relying too much on basic price actions and patterns which are easily manipulated by big banks and institutions. 👍
Today I will introduce you to my divergence indicator making use of SPX and VIX. Unlike MacD or RSI divegence , which would involve normative judgement , it will take account of the unusual move by SPX alongwith the VIX , to the exploit chances that options market, where most experienced investors participated in has a preceding insight into the equity market about the upcoming moves.
I have divided signals into two groups.
Bullish divergence - SPX Down , VIX also Down 👇
Bearish divergence - SPX Up , VIX also Up 👆
I hope this script will enable us to take advantage of the options market activities , to provide a REAL divergence signal, and be used coupled with our own chart patterns or other price signals, and more importantly to score more and more winning trades!!!
If you want more useful scripts from me, please like and share my posts. And don't forget to follow my account to grab the latest ideas and tools! 😘
SMA_Cross + RSI1. long
a. RSI does not open an order when it is overbought, until the RSI falls below a certain threshold, and then open a position
b. There are already many positions. If the RSI is overbought, it will be profitable. When the RSI falls below a certain threshold, open a long position again until the moving average crossover signal turns short.
2. Short
a. RSI does not open an order when it is oversold, and then opens a position after RSI rises to a certain threshold
b. There are already short positions. If the RSI is oversold, it will be profitable to close the short position. When the RSI rises above a certain threshold, open the short position again until there is a reversal of the moving average crossing signal.
1. 做多
a. RSI在超买区间时不开单,直到RSI回落到某个阈值之下,再开仓
b. 已经有多仓,如果RSI超买,则平多获利,当RSI回落到某个阈值之下后,再次开多,直到有均线交叉信号反转做空
2. 做空
a. RSI在超卖区间时不开单,直到RSI上升到某个阈值之后,再开仓
b. 已经有空仓,如果RSI超卖,则平空获利,当RSI上升到某个阈值之上后,再次开空,直到有均线交叉信号反转做多

SSL [dasanc]The SSL is a fair entry condition and good exit indicator. It works best when combined with a trend indicator and multiple confirmations.
In essence, the SSL is a moving average crossover, which immediately down-grades it to a 2nd or 3rd level of confluence in my opinion.
It was recently featured in an episode of VP's "No Nonsense FX", which drove me to recreate the original MT4 indicator in PineScript.
I have two ideas on how to improve it -
Use a much faster moving average calculation method (check out my Ehlers scripts)
Use a longer period MA on lower timeframes
If you enjoy/use this script, drop me a follow and please note me in your code!
I'm *almost* always available for collabs and questions
