Standard Deviation based Upper Lower RangeThis script makes use of historical data for finding the standard deviation on daily returns. Based on the mean and standard deviation, the upper and lower range for the stock is shown upto 2x standard deviation. These bounds can be treated as volatility range for the next n trading sessions. This volatility is based on historical data. Users can change the lookback historical period, and can also set the time period (days) for upcoming trading sessions.
This indicator can be useful in determining stoploss and target levels along with the traditional support/resistance levels. It can also be useful in option trading where one needs to determine a range beyond which it is safe to sell an option.
A range of 1 SD has around 65% to 68% probability that it will not be breached. A range of 2 SD has around 95% probability that it will not be breached.
The indicator is based on Normal distribution theory. In future editions, I envision to also calculate the skewness and kurtosis so that we can determine if a stock is properly following Normal Distribution theory. That may further favor the calculated range.

Tick Range Engulfing Candle Highlighter with Trend ChangeOverview
The "Tick Range Engulfing Candle Highlighter with Trend Change" indicator is designed to identify potential trend reversals by analyzing the size of each candle relative to a customizable tick size. This indicator highlights key moments when the market may shift direction based on an "engulfing" candle pattern, where the current candle's price range is larger than the previous one. By identifying these moments, traders can gain insight into possible trend changes, which could be useful for various trading strategies, including trend-following or reversal-based trading.
Key Concepts
Tick Size:
The indicator uses a user-defined tick size to calculate the price range of each candle. The tick size represents the minimum price movement that the market recognizes, allowing for more precise control over the range calculations.
Engulfing Candle Pattern:
The concept of an "engulfing candle" refers to a scenario where the current candle’s range (high minus low) is larger than the previous candle’s range. This pattern can signal a potential trend reversal, especially when combined with a change in the candle's direction (bullish to bearish or bearish to bullish).
Trend Change Detection:
The indicator specifically looks for situations where a bullish candle is followed by a larger bearish candle (indicating a potential downward trend reversal) or where a bearish candle is followed by a larger bullish candle (indicating a potential upward trend reversal).
The trend change is validated by comparing the tick range of the current and previous candles, ensuring that the current range is larger, which adds significance to the reversal signal.
How the Indicator Works
Input and Calculation:
Users start by setting the tick size through the indicator’s input. The script then calculates the tick range for the current and previous candles by dividing the difference between the high and low prices by the specified tick size.
Candle Direction Analysis:
The indicator assesses whether each candle is bullish (closing price higher than the opening price) or bearish (closing price lower than the opening price).
Engulfing and Trend Reversal Detection:
The script checks for an engulfing pattern combined with a change in the candle's direction:
Bullish to Bearish Change: Detected when a bullish candle is followed by a larger bearish candle.
Bearish to Bullish Change: Detected when a bearish candle is followed by a larger bullish candle.
Visual Cues:
When the conditions for a trend change are met, the indicator plots visual signals on the chart:
A red downward arrow below the candle indicates a potential bearish reversal.
A green upward arrow above the candle indicates a potential bullish reversal.
How to Use This Indicator
Customization:
Adjust the tick size to match the asset’s characteristics or your trading preferences. A smaller tick size will result in more sensitive detection, while a larger tick size will smooth out minor fluctuations.
Trade Confirmation:
This indicator can be used as a confirmation tool for other trend-following or reversal strategies. It’s particularly useful for traders looking to identify early signs of trend reversals.
Strategy Integration:
Consider integrating this indicator with other technical analysis tools such as moving averages, RSI, or support/resistance levels to build a more comprehensive trading strategy.
Underlying Concepts
The core idea behind this indicator is the principle of engulfing patterns combined with tick size analysis. By focusing on candles that not only change direction but also show a significant increase in range, the indicator highlights moments when the market may be experiencing a substantial shift in momentum. This method can help traders filter out noise and focus on more meaningful potential reversals.
In summary, the "Tick Range Engulfing Candle Highlighter with Trend Change" indicator provides traders with a tool to spot potential trend changes based on price action and candle analysis. It's flexible, allowing for customization, and can be a valuable addition to various trading strategies.

10 Minute Futures Session Open RangeInspired by SamRecio's 30sec OR script.
The 10 minute Opening Range (OR) dynamically identifies and visualizes the opening range of a trading session within the first 10 minutes after the market opens at 9:30 AM EST, concluding at 4:00 PM EST, reflecting the typical trading hours for U.S. stock exchanges. This indicator is particularly useful for strategies that rely on the initial market momentum and direction established during the early moments of the trading session.
Upon activation, the indicator calculates the highest (orHigh) and lowest (orLow) price levels reached during the first 10 minutes of the trading session, marking these levels with green (for the high) and red (for the low) lines directly on the chart overlay. Additionally, it computes and plots a midpoint (midPoint) between these high and low levels, displayed as a blue line, offering a visual reference for the median of the opening range.
The calculations are reset daily to ensure the indicator accurately reflects the opening range for each new trading session. By doing so, it avoids carrying over data from previous days, maintaining relevance and precision for day traders and those utilizing short-term trading strategies. The indicator also incorporates timezone adjustments to align with the America/New_York timezone, ensuring that the opening range is accurately captured regardless of the user's local timezone.
This tool is invaluable for traders looking to capitalize on breakout or reversion strategies around the opening range, providing clear visual cues for significant price levels established at the start of the trading session. By focusing on the first 10 minutes of trading, it caters to a specific segment of the market that believes the initial movements can set the tone for the rest of the day's trading activity.
Three Candle Rolling Pivot Range**Strategy Description: Three Previous Candle Rolling Pivot Range**
**Introduction:**
This trading strategy is based on the concept of the rolling pivot range calculated from the high, low, and close prices of the three previous candles. The rolling pivot range serves as a dynamic support and resistance level, and this strategy aims to capture potential trading opportunities based on the price relationship with this range.
**Strategy Components:**
**1. Rolling Pivot Range Calculation:**
- **Rolling Pivot:** Calculate the rolling pivot by averaging the high, low, and close prices of the three previous candles.
- **Second Number:** Find the midpoint between the high and low of the three previous candles.
- **Pivot Differential:** Measure the difference between the rolling pivot and the second number.
- **Rolling Pivot Range High:** Set as rolling pivot + pivot differential.
- **Rolling Pivot Range Low:** Set as rolling pivot - pivot differential.
**2. Entry Rules:**
- **Long Entry:**
- Initiate a long entry when the current close is above both the rolling pivot range high and the rolling pivot.
- Continue the long entry as long as both the rolling pivot range high and low are higher than the corresponding values of the previous candle.
- **Short Entry:**
- Start a short entry when the current close is below both the rolling pivot range high and the rolling pivot.
- Continue the short entry as long as both the rolling pivot range high and low are lower than the corresponding values of the previous candle.
**Visualization:**
- **Plotting:**
- The rolling pivot range high, rolling pivot, and rolling pivot range low are plotted on the chart for visual reference.
- Long entry points are marked with a green triangle below the corresponding candle.
- Short entry points are marked with a red triangle above the corresponding candle.
**Conclusion:**
This strategy leverages the rolling pivot range to identify potential reversal points in the market. By considering the relative position of the current price compared to the dynamic support and resistance levels, the strategy aims to capture favorable trading opportunities. However, like all trading strategies, it should be used cautiously and backtested thoroughly on historical data to ensure its effectiveness before implementation in a live trading environment. Additionally, risk management techniques should always be applied to safeguard trading capital.

blackOrb ZoneBuying near the bottom and selling near the peak can be a challenging trading approach. However, it all begins with the ability to identify these essential zones. This indicator is targeting support and resistance with heightened accuracy. It utilizes features like:
I. Multi-Level Weighting for Enhanced Support and Resistance Zones
II. Vertical Zone Range Adjustment for Enhanced Price Level Identification
III. High-Time Frame for Solid Macro Validation
IV. Projection Function for Informed Trade Management
V. Automatic Level Identification for Pinpointing Potential Order Positions
VI. Customizable Pivot Analysis for Accurate Zone Identifications
Technical Methodology
I. Multi-Level Weighting for Enhanced Support and Resistance Zones
Support and resistance are more accurately represented as wider zones rather than singular lines. In practical application, relevant support or resistance levels often converge around a central mean-weighted level within a zone.
This indicator visually represents these zones by calculating values from open, high, low, and close prices, accentuating them through varying opacities. Higher opacity within an area indicates a higher likelihood of it serving as a relevant support or resistance level.
Multiple mean options within the settings menu encompass weighted average calculations that utilize different combinations of price data within the relevant pivot analysis phase. This versatility allows users to target pertinent levels within a zone. For instance, when employing hlcc4 price data, the calculation is as follows:
mean_price_hlcc4 = (high + low + close + close) / 4
II. Vertical Zone Range Adjustment for Enhanced Price Level Identification
This feature enables users to precisely adjust the vertical zone range for price references within potential support or resistance phases. For instance, decreasing the reference setting results in a more granular validation within a narrower range. This creates vertically thinner zones with increased price level precision, although it may offer a less comprehensive perspective.
III. High-Time Frame for Solid Macro Validation
The indicator enhances pivot points, potentially in conjunction with high-time frame validation, to identify significant price zones with heightened confirmation strength driven by volume. Higher time frames provide more extensive volume verification, for instance, comparing the 4-hour to the 24-hour timeframe (a multiple of six).
This feature involves cross-referencing data from higher time frames, heightening the reliability of support and resistance zones and providing valuable insights into potential trading interest levels.
Technically, the indicator applies the identical rigorous analysis to both lower and higher time frames. This approach facilitates a more comprehensive perspective and aids in the clearer identification of overarching macro support and resistance levels, even when focusing on smaller timeframes. For instance, a potential support zone identified on the daily time frame can gain higher confidence when confirmed on a weekly chart.
IV. Projection Function for Informed Trade Management
The projection function visually extends the most recent analysis of support and resistance zones forward, in accordance with the user's configured parameters.
By displaying precise price values at these visualized support and resistance levels, this indicator offers valuable assistance in decision-making, particularly when planning real-time orders or when engaged in an active trade management phase (e.g., for the purpose of adjusting stop-loss levels post-entry).
Note: This function is based on historical data. It may not account for unforeseen market events. It's important to complement this feature with ongoing analysis of real-time market data.
V. Automatic Level Identification for Pinpointing Potential Order Positions
It is empirically observed that traders frequently position orders at price levels that conform to quantized values due to cognitive biases.*
Consequently, blackOrb Zone not only facilitates the identification of pertinent levels within a weighted zone but also features an "auto" functionality designed to analyze price dynamics in the proximity of these relevant levels. The objective is to identify discrete values in close vicinity, which exhibit a higher likelihood of serving as authentic support and resistance zones.
This processing approach assists traders in precisely locating the central mean-weighted level within a given zone and identifies proximate quantized levels.
Note: This method becomes especially relevant during phases of price retesting, where market participants converge, contributing to a further refinement of levels, indicative of an asymmetric balance between supply and demand.

VI. Customizable Pivot Analysis for Accurate Zone Identifications
The indicator employs pivot points to pinpoint key price zones where price dynamics could encounter buying or selling pressure.
Essential components of this method involve comparing time units both to the left and right within a designated phase of support or resistance, effectively defining the search range for pivotal points.
For instance, in the analysis below, the search is for the highest price point that hasn't been surpassed within a certain resistance zone in the last 10 time units to the left and 10 time units to the right:

Potential Trade Management Applications of blackOrb Zone
- Reversal Trading : Robust support zones with bullish signals can indicate opportune moments for buying or long position entries, whereas confirmed resistance zones can be identified for selling or short position entries.
- Breakout Trading : Anticipating price surges as price breach support or resistance level. A resistance breakout can signal a bullish price dynamic, while a support breakdown may suggest a bearish price dynamic.
- Range Trading : In lateral sideways markets, users can capitalize on support zones for buying and resistance zones for selling, profiting from price fluctuations.
- Take-Profit Management : For buying or long positions, resistance zones can be identified to determine suitable take-profit levels either within or near these zones - for short positions, vice versa with support zones.
- Stop-Loss Management : For buying or long positions, support zones can be identified to determine appropriate stop-loss levels beneath these zones - for short positions, vice versa with resistance zones to determine stop-loss levels above these zones.

AIR Supertrend (Average Interpercentile Range)Supertrend (ST) is a popular stop loss and trend identification script. The simplicity of seeing a clean trend on a chart makes it attractive, yet it is restricted by only allowing the source, length and multiplier to be adjusted, & these tend to have a limited effect on the properties of the identified trend.
There is a wide variety of interesting ST scripts on TradingView that give the user more control, but none to my knowledge, based on measuring the statistical dispersion of Average Interpercentile Range (AIR).
Two more levels of control:
Normally, ATR Average True Range is used to calculate the range in ST. ATR is initially calculated using RMA to smooth out True Range. This script gives the user the option of changing the MA to some more interesting varieties & modifying their parameters.
The default range setting when you load the indicator on a chart will be AIR.
The real strength of the indicator, however, and the reason I am publishing it, is to release AIR. Play round with the percentile range setting. Lowering it will allow you to stay longer in a trade in a volatile market. Raising it will make it tighter.
For comparison, you can switch back the range setting to ATR and load up RMA to see how the original, classic ST plots.
Alerts are included in this version. Alway use a stop loss.
DISCLAIMER: None of this is financial advice.

SuperTrend with Chebyshev FilterModified Super Trend with Chebyshev Filter
The Modified Super Trend is an innovative take on the classic Super Trend indicator. This advanced version incorporates a Chebyshev filter, which significantly enhances its capabilities by reducing false signals and improving overall signal quality. In this post, we'll dive deep into the Modified Super Trend, exploring its history, the benefits of the Chebyshev filter, and how it effectively addresses the challenges associated with smoothing, delay, and noise.
History of the Super Trend
The Super Trend indicator, developed by Olivier Seban, has been a popular tool among traders since its inception. It helps traders identify market trends and potential entry and exit points. The Super Trend uses average true range (ATR) and a multiplier to create a volatility-based trailing stop, providing traders with a dynamic tool that adapts to changing market conditions. However, the original Super Trend has its limitations, such as the tendency to produce false signals during periods of low volatility or sideways trading.
The Chebyshev Filter
The Chebyshev filter is a powerful mathematical tool that makes an excellent addition to the Super Trend indicator. It effectively addresses the issues of smoothing, delay, and noise associated with traditional moving averages. Chebyshev filters are named after Pafnuty Chebyshev, a renowned Russian mathematician who made significant contributions to the field of approximation theory.
The Chebyshev filter is capable of producing smoother, more responsive moving averages without introducing additional lag. This is possible because the filter minimizes the worst-case error between the ideal and the actual frequency response. There are two types of Chebyshev filters: Type I and Type II. Type I Chebyshev filters are designed to have an equiripple response in the passband, while Type II Chebyshev filters have an equiripple response in the stopband. The Modified Super Trend allows users to choose between these two types based on their preferences.
Overcoming the Challenges
The Modified Super Trend addresses several challenges associated with the original Super Trend:
Smoothing: The Chebyshev filter produces a smoother moving average without introducing additional lag. This feature is particularly beneficial during periods of low volatility or sideways trading, as it reduces the number of false signals.
Delay: The Chebyshev filter helps minimize the delay between price action and the generated signal, allowing traders to make timely decisions based on more accurate information.
Noise Reduction: The Chebyshev filter's ability to minimize the worst-case error between the ideal and actual frequency response reduces the impact of noise on the generated signals. This feature is especially useful when using the true range as an offset for the price, as it helps generate more reliable signals within a reasonable time frame.
The Great Replacement
The Modified Super Trend with Chebyshev filter is an excellent replacement for the original Super Trend indicator. It offers significant improvements in terms of signal quality, responsiveness, and accuracy. By incorporating the Chebyshev filter, the Modified Super Trend effectively reduces the number of false signals during low volatility or sideways trading, making it a more reliable tool for identifying market trends and potential entry and exit points.
In-Depth Guide to the Modified Super Trend Settings
The Modified Super Trend with Chebyshev filter offers a wide range of settings that allow traders to fine-tune the indicator to suit their specific trading styles and objectives. In this section, we will discuss each setting in detail, explaining its purpose and how to use it effectively.
Source
The source setting determines the price data used for calculations. The default setting is hl2, which calculates the average of the high and low prices. You can choose other price data sources such as close, open, or ohlc4 (average of open, high, low, and close prices) based on your preference.
Up Color and Down Color
These settings control the color of the trend line when the market is in an uptrend (up_color) and a downtrend (down_color). You can customize these colors to your liking, making it easier to visually identify the current market trend.
Text Color
This setting controls the color of the text displayed on the chart when using labels to indicate trend changes. You can choose any color that contrasts well with your chart background for better readability.
Mean Length
The mean_length setting determines the length (number of bars) used for the Chebyshev moving average calculation. A shorter length will make the moving average more responsive to price changes, while a longer length will produce a smoother moving average. It is crucial to find the right balance between responsiveness and smoothness, as a too-short length may generate false signals, while a too-long length might produce lagging signals. The default value is 64, but you can experiment with different values to find the optimal setting for your trading strategy.
Mean Ripple
The mean_ripple setting influences the Chebyshev filter's ripple effect in the passband (Type I) or stopband (Type II). The ripple effect represents small oscillations in the frequency response, which can impact the moving average's smoothness. The default value is 0.01, but you can experiment with different values to find the best balance between smoothness and responsiveness.
Chebyshev Type: Type I or Type II
The style setting allows you to choose between Type I and Type II Chebyshev filters. Type I filters have an equiripple response in the passband, while Type II filters have an equiripple response in the stopband. Depending on your preference for smoothness and responsiveness, you can choose the type that best fits your trading style.
ATR Style
The atr_style setting determines the method used for calculating the Average True Range (ATR). By default (false), it uses the traditional high-low range. When set to true, it uses the absolute difference between the open and close prices. You can choose the method that works best for your trading strategy and the market you are trading.
ATR Length
The atr_length setting controls the length (number of bars) used for calculating the ATR. Similar to the mean_length, a shorter length will make the ATR more responsive to price changes, while a longer length will produce a smoother ATR. The default value is 64, but you can experiment with different values to find the optimal setting for your trading strategy.
ATR Ripple
The atr_ripple setting, like the mean_ripple, influences the ripple effect of the Chebyshev filter used in the ATR calculation. The default value is 0.05, but you can experiment with different values to find the best balance between smoothness and responsiveness.
Multiplier
The multiplier setting determines the factor by which the ATR is multiplied before being added
Super Trend Logic and Signal Optimization
The Modified Super Trend with Chebyshev filter is designed to minimize false signals and provide a clear indication of market trends. It does so by using a combination of moving averages, Average True Range (ATR), and a multiplier. In this section, we will discuss the Super Trend's logic, its ability to prevent false signals, and the early warning crosses added to the indicator.
Super Trend Logic
The Super Trend's logic is based on a combination of the Chebyshev moving average and ATR. The Chebyshev moving average is a smooth moving average that effectively filters out market noise, while the ATR is a measure of market volatility.
The Super Trend is calculated by adding or subtracting a multiple of the ATR from the Chebyshev moving average. The multiplier is a user-defined value that determines the distance between the trend line and the price action. A larger multiplier results in a wider channel, reducing the likelihood of false signals but potentially missing out on valid trend changes.
Preventing False Signals
The Super Trend is designed to minimize false signals by maintaining its trend direction until a significant change in the market occurs. In a downtrend, the trend line will only decrease in value, and in an uptrend, it will only increase. This helps prevent false signals caused by temporary price fluctuations or market noise.
When the price crosses the trend line, the Super Trend does not immediately change its direction. Instead, it employs a safety logic to ensure that the trend change is genuine. The safety logic checks if the new trend line (calculated using the updated moving average and ATR) is more extreme than the previous one. If it is, the trend line is updated; otherwise, the previous trend line is maintained. This mechanism further reduces the likelihood of false signals by ensuring that the trend line only changes when there is a significant shift in the market.
Early Warning Crosses
To provide traders with additional insight, the Modified Super Trend with Chebyshev filter includes early warning crosses. These crosses are plotted on the chart when the price crosses the trend line without the safety logic. Although these crosses do not necessarily indicate a trend change, they can serve as a valuable heads-up for traders to monitor the market closely and prepare for potential trend reversals.
In conclusion, the Modified Super Trend with Chebyshev filter offers a significant improvement over the original Super Trend indicator. By incorporating the Chebyshev filter, this modified version effectively addresses the challenges of smoothing, delay, and noise reduction while minimizing false signals. The wide range of customizable settings allows traders to tailor the indicator to their specific needs, while the inclusion of early warning crosses provides valuable insight into potential trend reversals.
Ultimately, the Modified Super Trend with Chebyshev filter is an excellent tool for traders looking to enhance their trend identification and decision-making abilities. With its advanced features, this indicator can help traders navigate volatile markets with confidence, making more informed decisions based on accurate, timely information.
Bar Magnified Volume Profile/Fixed Range [ChartPrime]This indicator draws a volume profile by utilizing data from the lower timeframe to get a more accurate representation of where volume occurred on a bar to bar basis. The indicator creates a price range, and then splits that price range into 100 grids by default. The indicator then drops down to the lower timeframe, approximately 16 times lower than the current timeframe being viewed on the chart, and then parses through all of the lower timeframe bars, and attributes the lower timeframe bar volume to all grids that it is touching. The volume is dispersed proportionally to the grids which it is touching by whatever percent of the candle is inside each grid. For example, if one of the lower timeframe bars is interacting with "2" of the grids in the profile, and 60% of the candle is inside of the top grid, 60% of the volume from said candle will be attributed to the grid.
To make all of this magic happen, this script utilizes a quadratic time complexity algorithm while parsing and attributing the volume to all of the grids. Due to this type of algorithm being used in the script, many of the user inputs have been limited to allow for simplicity, but also to prevent possible errors when executing loops. For the most part, all of the settings have been thoroughly tested and configured with the right amount of limitations to prevent these errors, but also still give the user a broad range of flexibility to adjust the script to their liking.
📗 SETTINGS
Lookback Period: The lookback period determines how many bars back the script will search for the "highest high" and the "lowest low" which will then be used to generate the grids in-between
Number Of Levels: This setting determines how many grids there will be within the volume profile/fixed range. This is personal preference, however it is capped at 100 to prevent time complexity issues
Profile Length: This setting allows you to stretch or thin the volume profile. A higher number will stretch it more, vise versa a smaller number will thin it further. This does not change the volume profiles results or values, only its visual appearance.
Profile Offset: This setting allows you to offset the profile to the left or right, in the event the user does not appreciate the positioning of the default location of the profile. A higher number will shift it to the right, vise versa a lower number will shift it to the left. This is personal preference and does not affect the results or values of the profile.
🧰 UTILITY
The volume profile/fixed range can be used in many ways. One of the most popular methods is to identify high volume areas on the chart to be used as trade entries or exits in the event of the price revisiting the high volume areas. Take this picture as an example. The image clearly demonstrates how the 2 highest areas of volume within this magnified volume profile also line up to great areas of support and resistance in the market.
Here are some other useful methods of using the volume profile/fixed range
Identify Key Support and Resistance Levels for Setups
Determine Logical Take Profits and Stop Losses
Calculate Initial R Multiplier
Identify Balanced vs Imbalanced Markets
Determine Strength of Trends
Volume-Weighted Closing Range (TG Fork)Volume-weighted closing range of each bar. Closing range is (high - close) relative to the length of the wick (high - low). A close at the top of the wick would be 100%, middle 50%, bottom 0%. This is then multiplied by volume to weight towards high volume bars.
A moving average is applied to visualize trend in volume-weighted closing range over time.
Options include changing the threshold of bullish closes. The default is 50%, but you can view a close above 40% as a bullish .
How to use:
Columns indicate per-bar closing range, and can be used as either a buying-selling pressure indicator, or as an overreaction detector (eg, bars that are abnormally big can be used to start a fading/contrarian trade next bars). Green means the bar closed in the upper range, red in the lower range.
The cloud is the moving average over several bars (by default using EMA). This tends to represent sentiment over a period of time, and hence trend/momentum. Can be used in any timescale, even on weekly, then this represents the market cycles.

30 Second Futures Session Open RangeThis indicator displays 30 second opening ranges from Globex, Europe, and RTH sessions.
From the RTH session range, it also displays infinitely generating Price Targets based on a % of the opening range size.
I am retrieving the 30 second data using the new "request.security_lower_tf()" function.
The importance of these levels is based on the idea that when the market opens, algorithms establish their positions within the first 30 seconds.
These areas can also be seen as potential areas of support and resistance throughout the sessions.

True Range Adjusted Exponential Moving Average [CC]The True Range Adjusted Exponential Moving Average was created by Vitali Apirine (Stocks and Commodities Jan 2023 pgs 22-27) and this is the latest indicator in his EMA variation series. He has been tweaking the traditional EMA formula using various methods and this indicator of course uses the True Range indicator. The way that this indicator works is that it uses a stochastic of the True Range vs its highest and lowest values over a fixed length to create a multiple which increases as the True Range rises to its highest level and decreases as the True Range falls. This in turn will adjust the Ema to rise or fall depending on the underlying True Range. As with all of my indicators, I have color coded it to turn green when it detects a buy signal or turn red when it detects a sell signal. Darker colors mean it is a very strong signal and let me know if you find any settings that work well overall vs the default settings.
Let me know if you would like me to publish any other scripts that you recommend!
TNTThis script just changes the background of the chart to show Trending(Green) / Range Bound(Red) Regions.
The concept is very simple, al each candle we look at the size of the candle and use a moving average of these candle body size (ABS (close-open)) and compare it agains a double smoothened average, i.e. moving average of this average to find trending or not trending periods.
I find it useful primarily for entry in options, a green background is more favourable for option buying and a red background is more favourable for option selling.
This script tells you nothing about the direction of trade.
ka66: Candle Range IndicatorVisually shows the Body Range (open to close) and Candle Range (high to low).
Semi-transparent overlapping area is the full Candle Range, and fully-opaque smaller area is the Body Range. For aesthetics and visual consistency, Candle Range follows the direction of the Body Range, even though technically it's always positive (high - low).
The different plots for each range type also means the UI will allow deselecting one or the other as needed. For example, some strategies may care only about the Body Range, rather than the entire Candle Range, so the latter can be hidden to reduce noise.
Threshold horizontal lines are plotted, so the trader can modify these high and low levels as needed through the user interface. These need to be configured to match the instrument's price range levels for the timeframe. The defaults are pretty arbitrary for +/- 0.0080 (80 pips in a 4-decimal place forex pair). Where a range reaches or exceeds a threshold, it's visually marked as well with a shape at the Body or Candle peak, to assist with quicker visual potential setup scanning, for example, to anticipate a following reversal or continuation.
Normalised Dynamic RangeNormalised Dynamic Range is an indicator that identifies when an asset is going to trend. It uses the concept of Dynamic Range.
The indicator takes 3 look back periods (Default: 45, 30, 15) and calculates the dynamic range as follows:
Dynamic Range (DR) = Maximum(Close, Look back Period) / Minimum (Close, Look back Period)
This gives the Dynamic Range for a given look back period. Similarly 3 different DRs are calculated for 3 look back periods (Long, Mid and Short). These DRs are averaged to get Average Dynamic Range (ADR)
ADR = (Long DR + Mid DR + Short DR) / 3
Since, the short look back candles are also considered in the Mid and Long look backs, the average is weighted more towards the closer candles.
This ADR, is now normalised over a relative look back period (Default: 10) to generate Normalised Dynamic Range (NDR). The formula for normalising is as follows:
Normalised Dynamic Range (NDR) = ((Current ADR - Minimum(ADR, relative look back) / (Maximum(ADR, relative look back) - Minimum(ADR, relative look back)) * 100
How To Read
When NDR is below 20, the asset is getting into range bound
When NDR is above 20, the asset is trending
Caution
NDR only signals if an asset is trending or not. It does not give the direction of the trend.

Fear Of Missing Out grid of forex tradingAbstract
This script finds potential safe grids placing limit orders without fear of missing out.
This script computes grids according to power of 1.0025 .
You can reference those price levels for your trading.
Introduction
Grid trading is a popular trading method.
Traders plan several price levels as grids and repeat buying at lower grids and selling at higher grids.
Grids can be round number like multiple of 100 pips.
Grids can also be support and resistance according to price history.
Some traders may think they need to adjust grids to trade.
However, there are several problems in choosing grids.
One problem is rate of change is related and therefore exponential. 20 to 30 is different from 30 to 40.
Another interesting point is there are some special impressing reversal price levels.
Several months ago, I had a question why usdjpy bounced near 108.3 .
After using a calculator, I found that 108.3 = 100 * 1.083 ≒ 100 * pow(1.0025,31) .
1.0025 , as known as 0.25% of change, is a potential stop out zone.
Therefore, we can compute grids and one grid is a little more than 1.0025 times than an another one.
After we finished computing grids, we can consider buy and sell near those grids.
Note that different traders may obtain different grid values.
For example, from 1.0 to 2.0 , it can be splited as 270 grids or 277 grids because pow(1.0025,277)<2 .
Those grids cannot always imply potential reversal points but they can be useful for traders looking for 0.25% profit targets with reducing fearing of buying or selling too early.
Computing grids
This script split from 1.0 to 10.0 into three segments.
One is 1.0 to 2.0 .
The second segment is from 2.0 to 5.0 .
The third segment is from 5.0 to 10.0 .
This script does the same thing for 0.1 to 1.0 , 10.0 to 100.0 , and so on.
For 1.0 to 2.0 and 5.0 to 10.0 , this script split a segment as 270 grids.
For 2.0 to 5.0 , this script split a segment as 360 grids.
The last step is display the next grids to the daily low and daily high.
Maybe also display the grids behind grids shown.
Parameters
x1,x2,x3,x4 : display the next x1,x2,x3,x4 grids to daily high and daily low. 1 means the next grid to daily high and daily low. 2 means the next grid to 1.
x_seg : default 2.0 . This script split from 1.0 to 10.0 into three segments. One is 1.0 to x_seg. The second segment is from x_seg to 10.0/x_seg . The third segment is from 10.0/x_seg to 10.0 .
x_grid1 : how many grids in the first segment
x_grid2 : how many grids in the second segment
x_lowprice : add this number for bigger grid distance. Generally, you don't need this number when trading forex but you may need it in stock trading. For stocks with price between 50 to 100, I recommend you use x_lowprice=100.
Conclusion and suggestions
This script can find potential grids for trading.
If price touches grids usually, we can consider buy and sell after price touches grids.
If price reverses before touching grids usually, we may consider buy and sell before price touches grids.
Those grids can remind us don't buy too much unless the price touches the next grid.
For instruments with less volatility, maybe we need more grids.
For traders with more money, they may also consider more grids for more dedicated range trading to collect more profit.
Reference
Sorry, I forgot them.
vol_rangesThis script shows three measures of volatility:
historical (hv): realized volatility of the recent past
median (mv): a long run average of realized volatility
implied (iv): a user-defined volatility
Historical and median volatility are based on the EWMA, rather than standard deviation, method of calculating volatility. Since Tradingview's built in ema function uses a window, the "window" parameter determines how much historical data is used to calculate these volatility measures. E.g. 30 on a daily chart means the previous 30 days.
The plots above and below historical candles show past projections based on these measures. The "periods to expiration" dictates how far the projection extends. At 30 periods to expiration (default), the plot will indicate the one standard deviation range from 30 periods ago. This is calculated by multiplying the volatility measure by the square root of time. For example, if the historical volatility (hv) was 20% and the window is 30, then the plot is drawn over: close * 1.2 * sqrt(30/252).
At the most recent candle, this same calculation is simply drawn as a line projecting into the future.
This script is intended to be used with a particular options contract in mind. For example, if the option expires in 15 days and has an implied volatility of 25%, choose 15 for the window and 25 for the implied volatility options. The ranges drawn will reflect the two standard deviation range both in the future (lines) and at any point in the past (plots) for HV (blue), MV (red), and IV (grey).
RedK_9/30 Trader_v1: aka The MusicianThis is my implementation of a simple trading system inspired by the 9/30 trading strategy, which i came across few years ago. i hope some traders are still using it :)
(please google "9/30 trading strategy" if you're not sure what it is)
- the improvements i added focus on: faster (long/short) signals, discovery of best entry "zone", ride the trend
- no exit option, trader can use a pre-set target, a trailing stop, or any other mechanisms
- i tried to explain some of the definitions and rules on the below chart
- in spite if its simplicity, the 9/30 has a lot to offer - different traders will also use it differently and add their own "do's and don't's"
default settings should be adjusted to suit timeframe, type of trader and what is being traded (Stocks, FOREX,..etc) - the concept itself is very flexible and well-tested for mechanical trading.
code-named "The Musician" due to the 5-line plot :)
i will continue to improve this work whenever i find time - i liked it a lot.. (please tag the idea to receive the updates)
Extras and improvements (compared to the classic 9/30 concept)
---------------------------------------------------------------------------------
* signal line is a smoothed zero-lag WMA of a shorter length (responds faster to trend change = faster signal)
* instead of a single longer MA line, we utilize an "average range" -based channel (not ATR, but provides the same concept) to provide the ideal "entry zones" in both directions - an adjustable multiplier is included in the settings to adjust the channel width
* adds an optional long EMA as additional filter (take longs only above, take shorts only below)
* clearer visualization
What's next:
==============
* clean-up code
* add signals (arrow-up & arrow-dn) for entry and for exit
* tri-color signal line (green on long, red on short, gray on no trade)
* other options for the channel (ATR-based, DC center-line..etc)
* other MA-type options for the Filter MA (SMA, WMA ?)
* maybe: convert to strategy and back-test
Please feel free to explore and test - Comments and feedback are welcome.
Good Luck!
