Labels to indicate specific candlestick formations.
Labels appear only when a valid pattern is detected, avoiding unnecessary clutter.
Buy/Sell Signal
Plots buy signals at bullish patterns and sell signals at bearish patterns.
Helps traders recognize trend reversals and entry/exit points.
Bullish Engulfing Pattern (Green Label)
What it means: A bullish engulfing pattern typically signals a potential reversal from a downtrend to an uptrend. The current candle fully engulfs the previous candle, signaling strong buying interest.
Identifying Candlestick Patterns on the Chart
How to use it:
Entry: Look for a green label (bullish engulfing) at the bottom of the chart. When it appears, consider entering a long position (buy).
Confirmation: To increase reliability, wait for confirmation by observing if price moves above the high of the bullish engulfing candle.
Exit: Exit when the trend shows signs of reversing or take profit at predefined levels (e.g., resistance or a risk-to-reward ratio).
Bearish Engulfing Pattern (Red Label)
What it means: A bearish engulfing pattern is a signal of a potential reversal from an uptrend to a downtrend. The current candle fully engulfs the previous candle, signaling strong selling pressure.
How to use it:
Entry: Look for a red label (bearish engulfing) at the top of the chart. When it appears, consider entering a short position (sell).
Confirmation: Wait for the price to move below the low of the bearish engulfing candle to confirm the bearish trend.
Exit: Close the trade when the price reaches support levels or the trend shows signs of reversing.
Doji Pattern (Blue Circle)
What it means: A Doji candle signals market indecision. It represents a balance between buyers and sellers, often marking a potential reversal or consolidation point.
How to use it:
Entry: If the Doji appears after a strong trend (bullish or bearish), wait for the next candle to break above or below the Doji's high or low. This can signal a continuation or reversal.
Confirmation: You can look for additional indicators like moving averages, RSI, or MACD for confirmation before taking any action.
Exit: Exit when the price shows clear momentum in your entry direction.
Hammer Pattern (Orange Triangle)
What it means: The hammer pattern is a bullish reversal pattern that appears after a downtrend. It suggests that sellers pushed the price down during the session, but buyers managed to push the price back up.
How to use it:
Entry: When a hammer appears, consider entering a long position (buy). The price should move above the hammer's high for confirmation.
Confirmation: Look for strong volume and a follow-up bullish candle to confirm the reversal.
Exit: Set a target based on the next resistance level, or use a trailing stop to lock in profits.
Using Candlestick Patterns with Other Indicators
To increase your chances of success, combine candlestick patterns with other technical indicators.
Here are some ideas:
RSI (Relative Strength Index): Use RSI to check whether the market is overbought or oversold. A bullish engulfing in an oversold market could indicate a stronger buy signal, and a bearish engulfing in an overbought market could indicate a stronger sell signal.
Moving Averages (e.g., 50 EMA, 200 EMA): Confirm trend direction. If the candlestick pattern aligns with the direction of the moving averages, it can give a stronger signal.
MACD (Moving Average Convergence Divergence): Use MACD to confirm momentum and potential trend changes. If a candlestick pattern aligns with a MACD crossover, it strengthens the signal.
Volume: Look for higher-than-average volume when a pattern appears. This can give you additional confirmation that the market is reacting strongly.
Practice and Refine
It's important to practice using the candlestick patterns in a demo account or backtest them to see how they perform under different market conditions. Over time, you can adjust the settings and patterns to fit your trading style and preferences.

The Ultimate Lot Size Calculator Backstory
I created this Pine Script tool to calculate lot sizes with precision. While there are many lot size calculators available on TradingView, I found that most had significant flaws. I started teaching myself Pine Script over three and a half years ago with the sole purpose of building this tool. My first version was messy and lacked accuracy, so I never published it. I wanted it to be better than any other available tool, but my limited knowledge back then held me back.
Recently, I received a request to create a similar tool, as the current options still fail to deliver the precision and reliability traders need. This inspired me to revisit my original idea. With improved skills and a better understanding of Pine Script, I redesigned the tool from scratch, making it as precise, reliable, and efficient as possible.
This tool features built-in error detection to minimize mistakes and ensure accuracy in lot size calculations. I've spent more time on this project than on any other, focusing on delivering a solution that stands out on TradingView. While I plan to add more features based on user feedback, the current version is already a powerful, dependable, and easy-to-use tool for traders who value precision and efficiency in their lot size calculations.
How to use the tool ?
At first it might seem complicated, but it is quite easy to use the tool. There are two modes: auto and manual. By default, the tool is set on manual mode. When you apply the tool on the chart, it will ask you to choose the entry price, then the stop-loss price, and at last the take-profit price. Select all of them one by one. These values can be changed later.
Settings
There are various setting given for making the tool as flexible as possible. Here is the explanation for some of most important settings. Play with them and make yourself comfortable.
General settings
Auto mode : Use this mode if you want the the risk reward to be fixed and stop loss to be based on ATR. However the stop loss can be changed to be based on user input.
Manual mode : Use this mode if you want full control over entry, stop loss and take profit.
Contract Size : The tool works perfectly for all forex pairs including gold and silver but as the contract size is different for different assets it is difficult to add every single asset into the script manually so i have provided this option. In case you want to calculate lot size for a asset other then forex, gold or silver make sure to change this. Contract size = Quantity of the asset in 1 standerd lot.
Account settings
Automatic mode settings and ATR stop settings
Manual mode settings
Table and risk-reward box settings are pretty much self-explanatory i guess.
Error handling
A lot size calculator is a complex program. There are numerous points where it may fail and produce incorrect results. To make it robust and accurate, these issues must be addressed and managed properly, which practically all existing lot size calculator scripts fail to do.
Golden tip
When the symbol is changed it will display a symbol change warning as the entry, stop loss and take profit price won't change.
There are 2 ways to get fix this. Either manually enter all three values which i hate the most or remove the script from the chart and re-apply the script on chart again.
So to re-apply the indicator in most easy way follow the following instructions:
Note : If you encounter any other error then read the instruction to fix it and if it is an unknow error pleas report it to me in comments or DM.
Boilerplate Configurable Strategy [Yosiet]This is a Boilerplate Code!
Hello! First of all, let me introduce myself a little bit. I don't come from the world of finance, but from the world of information and communication technologies (ICT) where we specialize in data processing with the aim of automating it and eliminating all human factors and actors in the processes. You could say that I am an algotrader.
That said, in my journey through trading in recent years I have understood that this world is often shown to be incomplete. All those who want to learn about trading only end up learning a small part of what it really entails, they only seek to learn how to read candlesticks. Therefore, I want to share with the entire community a fraction of what I have really understood it to be.
As a computer scientist, the most important thing is the data, it is the raw material of our work and without data you simply cannot do anything. Entropy is simple: Data in -> Data is transformed -> Data out.
The quality of the outgoing data will directly depend on the incoming data, there is no greater mystery or magic in the process. In trading it is no different, because at the end of the day it is nothing more than data. As we often say, if garbage comes in, garbage comes out.
Most people focus on the results only, on the outgoing data, because in the end we all want the same thing, to make easy money. Very few pay attention to the input data, much less to the process.
Now, I am not here to delude you, because there is no bigger lie than easy money, but I am here to give you a boilerplate code that will help you create strategies where you only have to concentrate on the quality of the incoming data.
To the Point
The code is a strategy boilerplate that applies the technique that you decide to customize for the criteria for opening a position. It already has the other factors involved in trading programmed and automated.
1. The Entry
This section of the boilerplate is the one that each individual must customize according to their needs and knowledge. The code is offered with two simple, well-known strategies to exemplify how the code can be reused for your own benefits.
For the purposes of this post on tradingview, I am going to use the simplest of the known strategies in trading for entries: SMA Crossing
// SMA Cross Settings
maFast = ta.sma(close, length)
maSlow = ta.sma(open, length)
The Strategy Properties for all cases published here:
For Stock TSLA H1 From 01/01/2025 To 02/15/2025
For Crypto XMR-USDT 30m From 01/01/2025 To 02/15/2025
For Forex EUR-USD 5m From 01/01/2025 To 02/15/2025
But the goal of this post is not to sell you a dream, else to show you that the same Entry decision works very well for some and does not for others and with this boilerplate code you only have to think of entries, not exits.
2. Schedules, Days, Sessions
As you know, there are an infinite number of markets that are susceptible to the sessions of each country and the news that they announce during those sessions, so the code already offers parameters so that you can condition the days and hours of operation, filter the best time parameters for a specific market and time frame.
3. Data Filtering
The data offered in trading are numerical series presented in vectors on a time axis where an endless number of mathematical equations can be applied to process them, with matrix calculation and non-linear regressions being the best, in my humble opinion.
4. Read Fundamental Macroeconomic Events, News
The boilerplate has integration with the tradingview SDK to detect when news will occur and offers parameters so that you can enable an exclusion time margin to not operate anything during that time window.
5. Direction and Sense
In my experience I have found the peculiarity that the same algorithm works very well for a market in a time frame, but for the same market in another time frame it is only a waste of time and money. So now you can easily decide if you only want to open LONG, SHORT or both side positions and know how effective your strategy really is.
6. Reading the money, THE PURPOSE OF EVERYTHING
The most important section in trading and the reason why many clients usually hire me as a financial programmer, is reading and controlling the money, because in the end everyone wants to win and no one wants to lose. Now they can easily parameterize how the money should flow and this is the genius of this boilerplate, because it is what will really decide if an algorithm (Indicator: A bunch of math equations) for entries will really leave you good money over time.
7. Managing the Risk, The Ego Destroyer
Many trades, little money. Most traders focus on making money and none of them know about statistics and the few who do know something about it, only focus on the winrate. Well, with this code you can unlock what really matters, the true success criteria to be able to live off of trading: Profit Factor, Sortino Ratio, Sharpe Ratio and most importantly, will you really make money?
8. Managing Emotions
Finally, the main reason why many lose money is because they are very bad at managing their emotions, because with this they will no longer need to do so because the boilerplate has already programmed criteria to chase the price in a position, cut losses and maximize profits.
In short, this is a boilerplate code that already has the data processing and data output ready, you only have to worry about the data input.
“And so the trader learned: the greatest edge was not in predicting the storm, but in building a boat that could not sink.”

On-chain Zscore | QuantumResearchQuantumResearch On-chain Zscore Indicator
The On-chain Zscore Indicator by QuantumResearch is a cutting-edge tool designed for traders and analysts who leverage on-chain metrics to assess Bitcoin’s market conditions. This indicator calculates a composite Z-score using three key on-chain metrics: NUPL (Net Unrealized Profit/Loss), SOPR (Spent Output Profit Ratio), and MVRV (Market Value to Realized Value). By normalizing these values through standard deviations, the indicator provides a dynamic, data-driven approach to identifying overbought and oversold conditions, improving market timing and decision-making.
1. Overview
This indicator integrates multiple on-chain metrics to:
Assess Market Cycles – Utilize Z-score normalization to detect potential tops and bottoms.
Smooth Volatility – Apply EMA and standard deviation filtering to refine signals.
Identify Buy & Sell Signals – Use adaptive thresholds to highlight market extremes.
Provide Visual Clarity – Color-coded bar signals and background fills for intuitive analysis.
2. How It Works
A. Z-score Calculation
What is a Z-score? – The Z-score measures how far a data point deviates from its historical mean in terms of standard deviations. This helps in identifying statistical extremes.
Zscore(source,mean,std)=>
zscore = (source-mean)/std
zscore
Standard Deviation Normalization – Each on-chain metric (NUPL, SOPR, MVRV) is individually standardized before being combined into a final score.
B. On-Chain Components
NUPL Z-score – Measures unrealized profits and losses relative to market cycles.
SOPR Z-score – Evaluates profit-taking behavior on spent outputs.
MVRV Z-score – Assesses whether Bitcoin is overvalued or undervalued based on market cap vs. realized cap.
C. Composite On-chain Score
The indicator computes an average Z-score of the three on-chain metrics to create a composite market assessment.
Adaptive thresholds (default: 0.73 for bullish signals, -0.44 for bearish signals) dynamically adjust based on market conditions.
3. Visual Representation
This indicator features color-coded elements and dynamic threshold visualization:
Bar Colors
Green Bars – Bullish conditions when Z-score exceeds the upper threshold.
Red Bars – Bearish conditions when Z-score drops below the lower threshold.
Gray Bars – Neutral market conditions.
Threshold Bands & Background Fill
Upper Band (Overbought) – Default threshold set at 0.73.
Middle Band – Neutral zone at 0.
Lower Band (Oversold) – Default threshold set at -0.44.
4. Customization & Parameters
This indicator is highly configurable, allowing traders to fine-tune settings based on their strategy:
On-Chain Z-score Settings
NUPL Z-score Length – Default: 126 periods
SOPR Z-score Length – Default: 111 periods
MVRV Z-score Length – Default: 111 periods
Signal Thresholds
Upper Threshold (Bullish Zone) – Default: 0.73
Lower Threshold (Bearish Zone) – Default: -0.44
Color & Visual Settings
Choose from eight customizable color modes to suit personal preferences.
5. Trading Applications
The On-chain Zscore Indicator is versatile and can be applied in various market scenarios:
Macro Trend Analysis – Identify long-term market tops and bottoms using normalized on-chain metrics.
Momentum Confirmation – Validate price action trends with SOPR & MVRV behavior.
Market Timing – Use deviation thresholds to enter at historically significant price zones.
Risk Management – Avoid overextended markets by watching for extreme Z-score readings.
6. Final Thoughts
The QuantumResearch On-chain Zscore Indicator provides a unique approach to market evaluation by combining three critical on-chain metrics into a single, normalized score.
By standardizing Bitcoin’s market behavior, this tool helps traders and investors make informed decisions based on historical statistical extremes.
Backtesting and validation are essential before using this indicator in live trading. While it enhances market analysis, it should be used alongside other tools and strategies.
Disclaimer: No indicator can guarantee future performance. Always use appropriate risk management and perform due diligence before trading.

[AcerX] Leverage, TP & Optimal TP CalculatorHow It Works
Inputs:
Portfolio Allocation (%): The percentage of your portfolio you're willing to risk on the trade.
Stop Loss (%): The stop loss distance below the entry price.
Taker Fee (%) and Maker Fee (%): The fees applied on entry and exit.
Calculations:
The script calculates the required "raw" leverage to risk 1% of your portfolio.
It floors the computed leverage to an integer ("effectiveLeverage").
If the computed leverage is less than 1, it shows an error message (and suggests the maximum allocation for at least 1× leverage).
Otherwise, it calculates the TP levels for target profits of 1.2%, 1.5%, and 2%, and an "Optimal TP" that nets a 1% profit after fees.
Display:
A table is drawn on the top right corner of your chart displaying the effective leverage, the TP levels, and an error message if applicable.
Simply add this script as a new indicator in TradingView, and adjust the inputs as needed.
Happy trading!
Classic Nacked Z-Score ArbitrageThe “Classic Naked Z-Score Arbitrage” strategy employs a statistical arbitrage model based on the Z-score of the price spread between two assets. This strategy follows the premise of pair trading, where two correlated assets, typically from the same market sector, are traded against each other to profit from relative price movements (Gatev, Goetzmann, & Rouwenhorst, 2006). The approach involves calculating the Z-score of the price spread between two assets to determine market inefficiencies and capitalize on short-term mispricing.
Methodology
Price Spread Calculation:
The strategy calculates the spread between the two selected assets (Asset A and Asset B), typically from different sectors or asset classes, on a daily timeframe.
Statistical Basis – Z-Score:
The Z-score is used as a measure of how far the current price spread deviates from its historical mean, using the standard deviation for normalization.
Trading Logic:
• Long Position:
A long position is initiated when the Z-score exceeds the predefined threshold (e.g., 2.0), indicating that Asset A is undervalued relative to Asset B. This signals an arbitrage opportunity where the trader buys Asset B and sells Asset A.
• Short Position:
A short position is entered when the Z-score falls below the negative threshold, indicating that Asset A is overvalued relative to Asset B. The strategy involves selling Asset B and buying Asset A.
Theoretical Foundation
This strategy is rooted in mean reversion theory, which posits that asset prices tend to return to their long-term average after temporary deviations. This form of arbitrage is widely used in statistical arbitrage and pair trading techniques, where investors seek to exploit short-term price inefficiencies between two assets that historically maintain a stable price relationship (Avery & Sibley, 2020).
Further, the Z-score is an effective tool for identifying significant deviations from the mean, which can be seen as a signal for the potential reversion of the price spread (Braucher, 2015). By capturing these inefficiencies, traders aim to profit from convergence or divergence between correlated assets.
Practical Application
The strategy aligns with the Financial Algorithmic Trading and Market Liquidity analysis, emphasizing the importance of statistical models and efficient execution (Harris, 2024). By utilizing a simple yet effective risk-reward mechanism based on the Z-score, the strategy contributes to the growing body of research on market liquidity, asset correlation, and algorithmic trading.
The integration of transaction costs and slippage ensures that the strategy accounts for practical trading limitations, helping to refine execution in real market conditions. These factors are vital in modern quantitative finance, where liquidity and execution risk can erode profits (Harris, 2024).

Daily COC Strategy with SHERLOCK WAVESThis indicator implements a unique trading strategy known as the "Daily COC (Candle Over Candle) Strategy" enhanced with "SHERLOCK WAVES" for pattern recognition. It's designed for traders looking to capitalize on specific candlestick formations with a negative risk-reward ratio, with the aim of achieving a high win rate (over 70%) through numerous trading opportunities, despite each trade having a higher risk relative to the reward.
Key Features:
Pattern Recognition: Identifies a setup based on three consecutive candles - a red candle followed by a shooting star, then an entry candle that does not break below the shooting star's low.
Negative Risk/Reward Trade Selection: Focuses on entries where the potential stop loss is greater than the take profit, banking on a high win rate to offset the individual trade's negative risk-reward ratio.
Visual Signals:
Green Label: Marks potential entry points at the high of the candle before the entry.
Green Dot: Indicates a winning trade closure.
Red Dot: Signals a losing trade closure.
Blue Circle: Warns when the current candle is within 2% of breaking above the previous candle's high, suggesting a potential setup is developing.
Green Circle: Plots the take profit level.
Red Circle: Plots the stop loss level.
Dynamic Statistics: A live updating label showing the number of trades, wins, losses, open trades, current account balance, and win percentage.
Customizable Parameters:
Risk % per Trade: Adjust the percentage of your account balance you're willing to risk on each trade.
Initial Account Balance: Set your starting balance for tracking performance.
Start Date for Strategy: Define when the strategy should start calculating from, allowing for backtesting.
Alerts:
An alert condition is set for when a potential trade setup is developing, helping traders prepare for entries.
Usage Tips:
This strategy is predicated on the idea that a high win rate can compensate for the negative risk-reward ratio of individual trades. It might not suit all market conditions or traders' risk profiles.
Use this strategy in conjunction with other analysis methods to validate trade setups.
Note: Always backtest thoroughly before applying to live markets. Consider this tool as part of a broader trading strategy, not a standalone solution. Monitor your win rate and adjust your risk management accordingly to ensure the strategy remains profitable over time.
This description now correctly explains the purpose behind the negative risk-reward ratio in the context of your trading strategy.

2. **Relax RSI Filters**
Adjust the RSI range to:
- `rsiBullish = rsi > 45 and rsi < 75`
- `rsiBearish = rsi < 55 and rsi > 25`
3. **Add Profit Targets**
Introduce a profit target at 1.5% above entry:
```pine
strategy.exit("Long Exit", "Long",
stop=longStopPrice,
profit=close*1.015, // 1.5% target
trail_offset=trailOffset)
```
4. **Reduce Position Sizing**
Risk a smaller percentage per trade:

Johnny's Machine Learning Moving Average (MLMA) w/ Trend Alerts📖 Overview
Johnny's Machine Learning Moving Average (MLMA) w/ Trend Alerts is a powerful adaptive moving average indicator designed to capture market trends dynamically. Unlike traditional moving averages (e.g., SMA, EMA, WMA), this indicator incorporates volatility-based trend detection, Bollinger Bands, ADX, and RSI, offering a comprehensive view of market conditions.
The MLMA is "machine learning-inspired" because it adapts dynamically to market conditions using ATR-based windowing and integrates multiple trend strength indicators (ADX, RSI, and volatility bands) to provide an intelligent moving average calculation that learns from recent price action rather than being static.
🛠 How It Works
1️⃣ Adaptive Moving Average Selection
The MLMA automatically selects one of four different moving averages:
📊 EMA (Exponential Moving Average) – Reacts quickly to price changes.
🔵 HMA (Hull Moving Average) – Smooth and fast, reducing lag.
🟡 WMA (Weighted Moving Average) – Gives recent prices more importance.
🔴 VWAP (Volume Weighted Average Price) – Accounts for volume impact.
The user can select which moving average type to use, making the indicator customizable based on their strategy.
2️⃣ Dynamic Trend Detection
ATR-Based Adaptive Window 📏
The Average True Range (ATR) determines the window size dynamically.
When volatility is high, the moving average window expands, making the MLMA more stable.
When volatility is low, the window shrinks, making the MLMA more responsive.
Trend Strength Filters 📊
ADX (Average Directional Index) > 25 → Indicates a strong trend.
RSI (Relative Strength Index) > 70 or < 30 → Identifies overbought/oversold conditions.
Price Position Relative to Upper/Lower Bands → Determines bullish vs. bearish momentum.
3️⃣ Volatility Bands & Dynamic Support/Resistance
Bollinger Bands (BB) 📉
Uses standard deviation-based bands around the MLMA to detect overbought and oversold zones.
Upper Band = Resistance, Lower Band = Support.
Helps traders identify breakout potential.
Adaptive Trend Bands 🔵🔴
The MLMA has built-in trend envelopes.
When price breaks the upper band, bullish momentum is confirmed.
When price breaks the lower band, bearish momentum is confirmed.
4️⃣ Visual Enhancements
Dynamic Gradient Fills 🌈
The trend strength (ADX-based) determines the gradient intensity.
Stronger trends = More vivid colors.
Weaker trends = Lighter colors.
Trend Reversal Arrows 🔄
🔼 Green Up Arrow: Bullish reversal signal.
🔽 Red Down Arrow: Bearish reversal signal.
Trend Table Overlay 🖥
Displays ADX, RSI, and Trend State dynamically on the chart.
📢 Trading Signals & How to Use It
1️⃣ Bullish Signals 📈
✅ Conditions for a Long (Buy) Trade:
The MLMA crosses above the lower band.
The ADX is above 25 (confirming trend strength).
RSI is above 55, indicating positive momentum.
Green trend reversal arrow appears (confirmation of a bullish reversal).
🔹 How to Trade It:
Enter a long trade when the MLMA turns bullish.
Set stop-loss below the lower Bollinger Band.
Target previous resistance levels or use the upper band as take-profit.
2️⃣ Bearish Signals 📉
✅ Conditions for a Short (Sell) Trade:
The MLMA crosses below the upper band.
The ADX is above 25 (confirming trend strength).
RSI is below 45, indicating bearish pressure.
Red trend reversal arrow appears (confirmation of a bearish reversal).
🔹 How to Trade It:
Enter a short trade when the MLMA turns bearish.
Set stop-loss above the upper Bollinger Band.
Target the lower band as take-profit.
💡 What Makes This a Machine Learning Moving Average?
📍 1️⃣ Adaptive & Self-Tuning
Unlike static moving averages that rely on fixed parameters, this MLMA automatically adjusts its sensitivity to market conditions using:
ATR-based dynamic windowing 📏 (Expands/contracts based on volatility).
Adaptive smoothing using EMA, HMA, WMA, or VWAP 📊.
Multi-indicator confirmation (ADX, RSI, Volatility Bands) 🏆.
📍 2️⃣ Intelligent Trend Confirmation
The MLMA "learns" from recent price movements instead of blindly following a fixed-length average.
It incorporates ADX & RSI trend filtering to reduce noise & false signals.
📍 3️⃣ Dynamic Color-Coding for Trend Strength
Strong trends trigger more vivid colors, mimicking confidence levels in machine learning models.
Weaker trends appear faded, suggesting uncertainty.
🎯 Why Use the MLMA?
✅ Pros
✔ Combines multiple trend indicators (MA, ADX, RSI, BB).
✔ Automatically adjusts to market conditions.
✔ Filters out weak trends, making it more reliable.
✔ Visually intuitive (gradient colors & reversal arrows).
✔ Works across all timeframes and assets.
⚠️ Cons
❌ Not a standalone strategy → Best used with volume confirmation or candlestick analysis.
❌ Can lag slightly in fast-moving markets (due to smoothing).
Auto-Adjusting Kalman Filter by TenozenNew year, new indicator! Auto-Adjusting Kalman Filter is an indicator designed to provide an adaptive approach to trend analysis. Using the Kalman Filter (a recursive algorithm used in signal processing), this algo dynamically adjusts to market conditions, offering traders a reliable way to identify trends and manage risk! In other words, it's a remaster of my previous indicator, Kalman Filter by Tenozen.
What's the difference with the previous indicator (Kalman Filter by Tenozen)?
The indicator adjusts its parameters (Q and R) in real-time using the Average True Range (ATR) as a measure of market volatility. This ensures the filter remains responsive during high-volatility periods and smooth during low-volatility conditions, optimizing its performance across different market environments.
The filter resets on a user-defined timeframe, aligning its calculations with dominant trends and reducing sensitivity to short-term noise. This helps maintain consistency with the broader market structure.
A confidence metric, derived from the deviation of price from the Kalman filter line (measured in ATR multiples), is visualized as a heatmap:
Green : Bullish confidence (higher values indicate stronger trends).
Red : Bearish confidence (higher values indicate stronger trends).
Gray : Neutral zone (low confidence, suggesting caution).
This provides a clear, objective measure of trend strength.
How it works?
The Kalman Filter estimates the "true" price by filtering out market noise. It operates in two steps, that is, prediction and update. Prediction is about projection the current state (price) forward. Update is about adjusting the prediction based on the latest price data. The filter's parameters (Q and R) are scaled using normalized ATR, ensuring adaptibility to changing market conditions. So it means that, Q (Process Noise) increases during high volatility, making the filter more responsive to price changes and R (Measurement Noise) increases during low volatility, smoothing out the filter to avoid overreacting to minor fluctuations. Also, the trend confidence is calculated based on the deviation of price from the Kalman filter line, measured in ATR multiples, this provides a quantifiable measure of trend strength, helping traders assess market conditions objectively.
How to use?
Use the Kalman Filter line to identify the prevailing trend direction. Trade in alignment with the filter's slope for higher-probability setups.
Look for pullbacks toward the Kalman Filter line during strong trends (high confidence zones)
Utilize the dynamic stop-loss and take-profit levels to manage risk and lock in profits
Confidence Heatmap provides an objective measure of market sentiment, helping traders avoid low-confidence (neutral) zones and focus on high-probability opportunities
Guess that's it! I hope this indicator helps! Let me know if you guys got some feedback! Ciao!

It calculates several values such as B-value, VAR2-value, and additional signals like SK and SD to identify buy/sell levels and reversals, aiding traders in making informed decisions.
█ LOGICAL FRAMEWORK
The script consists of several main components:
• Input parameters that allow customization of calculation periods and thresholds.
• A custom function funding_wave that computes various financial metrics and conditions.
• Plotting commands to visualize different aspects of those computations.
Data flows from input parameters into the funding_wave function where calculations are performed. These results are then plotted according to specified conditions. The script uses conditional expressions to define when certain plots should appear based on the computed values.
█ CUSTOM FUNCTIONS
funding_wave Function:
This function takes six arguments: close_price, high_price, low_price, open_price, period_b, and period_var2. It performs several calculations including:
• Price range percentage normalized between lowest and highest prices over 60 bars.
• SMA of this value over periods defined by period_b and period_var2.
• Several moving averages (MA), EMAs, and extreme point markers (highest/lowest).
• Multiple condition checks involving these metrics leading to buy/high signal flags.
Returns: An array containing B-value, VAR2-value, SK-value, SD-value, along with various conditional signal indicators.
█ KEY POINTS AND TECHNIQUES
• Utilizes built-in TA functions (ta.highest, ta.lowest, ta.sma, ta.ema) for smoothing and normalization purposes.
• Implements extensive use of ternary operators and boolean logic to determine plot visibility based on specific criteria.
• Employs column-style plotting which highlights significant transitions in calculated metric levels visually.
• No explicit loops; computations utilize vectorized operations inherent to Pine Script's nature.

• Adding alerts for key threshold crossovers or meeting certain conditions.
• Customizing more sophisticated alert messages incorporating current time and symbol details.
• Incorporating stop-loss/take-profit strategies dynamically adjusted by indicator outputs.
Similar techniques can be applied in:
• Developing robust trend-following systems combining momentum oscillators.
• Enhancing basic price action rulesets with statistical filters derived from historical data behaviors.
• Exploring intraday breakout strategies predicated upon sudden changes in market sentiment captured via volatility spikes.
Related concepts/features:
• Using arrays to encapsulate complex return structures for reusability across scripts/functions.
• Leveraging na effectively within plotting constructs ensures cleaner chart presentation avoiding clutter from irrelevant points.
█ MARKET MEANING OF DIFFERENT COLORED COLUMNS
Red Columns ("B above Var2"):
• Market Interpretation: When the red columns appear, it indicates that the B-value is higher than the VAR2-value. This suggests a strengthening upward trend or consolidation phase where the market might be experiencing buying pressure relative to recent trends.
• Trading Implication: Traders may consider this as a potentially bullish sign, indicating strength in the underlying asset.
Green Columns ("B below Var2"):
• Market Interpretation: Green columns indicate that the B-value is lower than the VAR2-value. This could suggest downward trend acceleration or weakening buying pressure compared to recent trends.
• Trading Implication: Traders might interpret this as a bearish signal, suggesting a possible decline in the market.
Aqua Columns ("SK below SD"):
• Market Interpretation: Aqua columns show instances where the SK-value is below the SD-value. This typically signifies that the short-term stochastic oscillator (or similar measure) is signaling oversold conditions but not yet reaching extremes.
• Trading Implication: While not necessarily a strong sell signal, aqua columns might prompt traders to look for further confirmation before entering long positions.
Fuchsia Columns ("SK above SD"):
• Market Interpretation: Fuchsia columns represent situations where the SK-value exceeds the SD-value. This usually indicates overbought conditions in the near term.
• Trading Implication: Traders often view fuchsia columns as cautionary signs, possibly prompting them to exit existing long positions or refrain from adding new ones without further analysis.
Yellow Columns ("High Condition" and "High Condition Both"):
• Market Interpretation: Yellow columns occur when either the SK-value or B-value crosses above predefined high thresholds (e.g., 90). If both cross simultaneously, they form "High Condition Both."
• Trading Implication: Strongly bullish signals indicating overheated markets prone to corrections. Traders may see this as a good opportunity to take profits or prepare for a pullback/corrective move.
Blue Columns ("Low Condition" and "Low Condition Both"):
• Market Interpretation: Blue columns emerge when either the SK-value or B-value drops below predefined low thresholds (e.g., 10). Simultaneous crossing forms "Low Condition Both."
• Trading Implication: Potentially bullish reversal setups once the market starts showing signs of bottoming out after being significantly oversold. Traders might use blue columns as entry points for establishing long positions or hedging against anticipated rebounds.
Light Purple Columns ("Low Condition with Reversal" and "Low Condition Both with Reversal"):
• Market Interpretation: Light purple columns signify moments when the SK-value or B-value falls below their respective thresholds but has started reversing upwards immediately afterward. If both fall and reverse together, it's denoted as "Low Condition Both with Reversal."
• Trading Implication: Suggests a possible early-stage rebound from an extended downtrend or sideways movement. This could be seen as a highly reliable bulls' flag formation setup.
White Columns ("High Condition with Reversal" and "High Condition Both with Reversal"):
• Market Interpretation: White columns denote scenarios where the SK-value or B-value breaches high thresholds (e.g., 90) but begins descending shortly thereafter. Both simultaneously crossing leads to "High Condition Both with Reversal."
• Trading Implication: Indicative of peak overbought conditions followed quickly by exhaustion in buying interest. This warns traders about potential imminent retracements or pullbacks, prompting exits or short positions.
█ SUMMARY TABLE OF COLUMN COLORS AND THEIR MEANINGS
Color Type Market Interpretation Trading Implication
Red B above Var2 Strengthening upward trend/consolidation Bullish sign
Green B below Var2 Downward trend acceleration/weakening buying pressure Bearish sign
Aqua SK below SD Oversold conditions but not extreme Cautionary signal
Fuchsia SK above SD Overbought conditions Take profit/precaution
Yellow High Condition / High Condition Both Overheated market, likely correction coming Good time to exit/additional selling
Blue Low Condition / Low Condition Both Possible bull/rebound setup Entry point/hedging
Light Purple Low Condition with Reversal / Low Condition Both with Reversal Early-stage rebound from downtrend Reliable bulls' flag formation
White High Condition with Reversal / High Condition Both with Reversal Peak overbought with imminent retracement Exit positions/warning
Understanding these color-coded signals can help traders make more informed decisions, whether for entry, exit, or risk management in trading strategies. Each set of colors provides distinct insights into market dynamics and trends, aiding in effective execution of trade plans.
Engulfing Candlestick StrategyEver wondered whether the Bullish or Bearish Engulfing pattern works or has statistical significance? This script is for you. It works across all markets and timeframes.
The Engulfing Candlestick Pattern is a widely used technical analysis pattern that traders use to predict potential price reversals. It consists of two candles: a small candle followed by a larger one that "engulfs" the previous candle. This pattern is considered bullish when it occurs in a downtrend (bullish engulfing) and bearish when it occurs in an uptrend (bearish engulfing).
Statistical Significance of the Engulfing Pattern:
While many traders rely on candlestick patterns for making decisions, research on the statistical significance of these patterns has produced mixed results. A study by Dimitrios K. Koutoupis and K. M. Koutoupis (2014), titled "Testing the Effectiveness of Candlestick Chart Patterns in Forex Markets," indicates that candlestick patterns, including the engulfing pattern, can provide some predictive power, but their success largely depends on the market conditions and timeframe used. The researchers concluded that while some candlestick patterns can be useful, traders must combine them with other indicators or market knowledge to improve their predictive accuracy.
Another study by Brock, Lakonishok, and LeBaron (1992), "Simple Technical Trading Rules and the Stochastic Properties of Stock Returns," explores the profitability of technical indicators, including candlestick patterns, and finds that simple trading rules, such as those based on moving averages or candlestick patterns, can occasionally outperform a random walk in certain market conditions.
However, Jorion (1997), in his work "The Risk of Speculation: The Case of Technical Analysis," warns that the reliability of candlestick patterns, including the engulfing patterns, can vary significantly across different markets and periods. Therefore, it's important to use these patterns as part of a broader trading strategy that includes other risk management techniques and technical indicators.
Application Across Markets:
This script applies to all markets (e.g., stocks, commodities, forex) and timeframes, making it a versatile tool for traders seeking to explore the statistical effectiveness of the bullish and bearish engulfing patterns in their own trading.
Conclusion:
This script allows you to backtest and visualize the effectiveness of the Bullish and Bearish Engulfing patterns across any market and timeframe. While the statistical significance of these patterns may vary, the script provides a clear framework for evaluating their performance in real-time trading conditions. Always remember to combine such patterns with other risk management strategies and indicators to enhance their predictive power.
Range Channel by Atilla YurtsevenThis script creates a dynamic channel around a user-selected moving average (MA). It calculates the relative difference between price and the MA, then finds the average of the positive differences and the negative differences separately. Using these averages, it plots upper and lower bands around the MA as well as a histogram-like oscillator to show when price moves above or below the average thresholds.
How It Works
Moving Average Selection
The indicator allows you to choose among multiple MA types (SMA, EMA, WMA, Linear Regression, etc.). Depending on your preference, it calculates the chosen MA for the selected lookback period.
Relative Difference Calculation
It then computes the percentage difference between the source (typically the closing price) and the MA. (diff = (src / ma - 1) * 100)
Positive & Negative Averages
- Positive differences are averaged and represent how far the price typically moves above the MA.
- Negative differences are similarly averaged for when price moves below the MA.
Range Channel & Oscillator
- The channel is plotted around the MA using the average positive and negative differences (Upper Edge and Lower Edge).
- The “Untrended” histogram plots the difference (diff). Green bars occur when price is above the MA on average, and red bars when below. Two additional lines mark the upper and lower average thresholds on this histogram.
How to Use
Identify Overbought/Oversold Zones: The upper edge can serve as a dynamic overbought level, while the lower edge can suggest potential oversold conditions. When the histogram approaches or crosses these levels, it may signal price extremes relative to its average movement.
Trend Confirmation: Compare price action relative to the channel. If price and the histogram consistently remain above the MA and upper threshold, it could indicate a stronger bullish trend. If they remain below, it might signal a prolonged bearish trend.
Entry/Exit Timings:
- Entry: Traders can look for moments when price breaks back inside the channel from an extreme, anticipating a mean reversion.
- Exit: Watching how price interacts with these dynamic edges can help define stop-loss or take-profit points.
Because these thresholds adapt over time based on actual price behavior, they can be more responsive than fixed-percentage bands. However, like all indicators, it’s most effective when used in conjunction with other technical and fundamental tools.

Bitcoin Reversal PredictorOverview
This indicator displays two lines that, when they cross, signal a potential reversal in Bitcoin's price trend. Historically, the high or low of a bull market cycle often occurs near the moment these lines intersect. The lines consist of an Exponential Moving Average (EMA) and a logarithmic regression line fitted to all of Bitcoin's historical data.
Inspiration
The inspiration for this indicator came from the PI Cycle Top indicator, which has accurately predicted past bull market peaks. However, I believe the PI Cycle Top indicator may not be as effective in the future. In that indicator, two lines cross to mark the top, but the extent of the cross has been diminishing over time. This was especially noticeable in the 2021 cycle, where the lines barely crossed. Because of this, I created a new indicator that I think will continue to provide reliable reversal signals in the future.
How It Works
The logarithmic regression line is fitted to the Bitcoin (BTCUSD) chart using two key factors: the 'a' factor (slope) and the 'b' factor (intercept). This results in a steadily decreasing line. The EMA oscillates above and below this regression line. Each time the two lines cross, a vertical colored bar appears, indicating that Bitcoin's price momentum is likely to reverse.
Use Cases
- Price Bottoming:
Bitcoin often bottoms out when the EMA crosses below the logarithmic regression line.
- Price Topping:
In contrast, Bitcoin often peaks when the EMA crosses above the logarithmic regression line.
- Profitable Strategy:
Trading at the crossovers of these lines can be a profitable strategy, as these moments often signal significant price reversals.
