Minervini Stage 2 AnalysisHandbook for Minervini Stage 2 Analysis Indicator
Introduction
This handbook provides detailed instructions and guidelines for using the Minervini Stage 2 Analysis Indicator based on Mark Minervini's swing trading methodology. This indicator is designed for traders focusing on US stocks, aiming to capture gains in medium to short-term uptrends (swing trading).
Understanding Stage 2
Stage 2 represents a bullish uptrend in a stock's price. Mark Minervini emphasizes entering long positions during this phase. The stage is identified using four key criteria related to moving averages (MAs).
Indicator Criteria
Stock Price Above MA 150 and 200: Indicates an overall uptrend.
MA 150 Above MA 200: Signals a stronger medium-term trend compared to the long-term trend.
MA 200 Trending Up for At Least 1 Month (22 Days): Confirms a stable uptrend.
MA 50 Above Both MA 150 and 200: Shows short-term strength and momentum.
Using the Indicator
Entering Trades: Consider long positions when all four criteria are met. This signifies that the stock is in a Stage 2 uptrend.
Monitoring Trades: Regularly check if the stock continues to meet these criteria. The indicator provides a clear visual and textual representation for ease of monitoring.
Alarm Signals and Exit Strategy
One Criterion Not Met: This serves as an alarm signal. Increased vigilance is required, and traders should prepare for a potential exit.
Two Criteria Not Met: Strong indication to close the trade. This suggests the stock may be transitioning out of Stage 2, increasing the risk of holding the position.
Risk Management
Stop-Loss Orders: Consider setting a trailing stop-loss to protect profits and minimize losses.
Position Sizing: Adjust position sizes according to your risk tolerance and portfolio strategy.
Volume and Relative Strength Analysis
Volume Analysis: Look for increased trading volume as confirmation when the stock price moves above key MAs.
Relative Strength (RS) Rating: Compare the stock's performance to the broader market to gauge its strength.
Limitations and Considerations
Market Conditions: The indicator's effectiveness may vary with market conditions. It is more reliable in a bullish market environment.
Supplementary Analysis: Combine this indicator with other analysis methods (fundamental, technical) for a holistic approach.
Continuous Learning: Stay updated with market trends and adjust your strategy accordingly.
Conclusion
The Minervini Stage 2 Analysis Indicator is a powerful tool for identifying potential long positions in uptrending stocks. Its reliance on specific criteria aligns with Mark Minervini's proven swing trading strategy. However, always exercise due diligence and risk management in your trading decisions.

RSI Fractal Energy with Signal LineHere is my second script.
Introducing the RSI Fractal Energy Indicator.
This incorporates the Relative-Strength Index and Fractal Energy as the name implies.
This will help the trader identify:
1. Trend Strength: The higher the value of the indicator can indicate the strength of the trend and vice versa.
2. Reversal points: If the indicator is showing weakness and the market is making higher highs and lower lows this can indicate a reversal is possible.
3. Overbought and Oversold conditions: This indicator is currently set to 30(Oversold) and 70(Overbought), but this can be changed in the source code.
I also added a signal line to provide bullish/bearish crossovers.
I use this indicator on the 1 hr chart, but it can be used on any time frame.
Please let me know if you have any questions, comments, or concerns. Always open to learning more.
I will also provide updates as I continue to use my indicators.
Happy trading!
[@btc_charlie] Trader XO Macro Trend ScannerWhat is this script?
This script has two main functions focusing on EMAs (Exponential Moving Average) and Stochastic RSI.
EMAs
EMAs are typically used to give a view of bullish / bearish momentum. When the shorter EMA (calculated off more recent price action) crosses, or is above, the slower moving EMA (calculated off a longer period of price action), it suggests that the market is in an uptrend. This can be an indication to either go long on said asset, or that it is more preferable to take long setups over short setups. Invalidation on long setups is usually found via price action (e.g. previous lows) or simply waiting for an EMA cross in the opposite direction (i.e. shorter EMA crosses under longer term EMA).
This is not a perfect system for trade entry or exit, but it does give a good indication of market trends. The settings for the EMAs can be changed based on user inputs, and by default the candles are coloured based on the crosses to make it more visual. The default settings are based on “Trader XO’s” settings who is an exceptional swing trader.
RSI
Stochastic RSI is a separate indicator that has been added to this script. RSI measures Relative Strength (RSI = Relative Strength Index). When RSI is <20 it is considered oversold, and when >80 it is overbought. These conditions suggests that momentum is very strong in the direction of the trend.
If there is a divergence between the price (e.g. price is creating higher highs, and stoch RSI is creating lower highs) it suggests the strength of the trend is weakening. Whilst this script does not highlight divergences, what it does highlight is when the shorter term RSI (K) crosses over D (the average of last 3 periods). This can give an indication that the trend is losing strength.
Combination
The EMAs indicate when trend shifts (bullish or bearish).
The RSI indicates when the trend is losing momentum.
The combination of the two can be used to suggest when to prefer a directional bias, and subsequently shift in anticipation of a trend reversal.
Note that no signal is 100% accurate and an interpretation of market conditions and price action will need to be overlayed to
Why is it different to others?
I have not found other scripts that are available in this way visually including alerts when Stoch RSI crosses over/under the extremes; or the mid points.
Whilst these indicators are default, the combination of them and how they are presented is not and makes use of the TradingView colouring functionalities.
What are the features?
Customise the variables (averages) used in the script.
Display as one EMA or two EMAs (the crossing ones).
Alerts on EMA crosses.
Alerts on Stoch RSI crosses - slow/fast, upper, lower areas.
- Currently set on the chart to show alerts when Stoch RSI is above 80, then falls below 80 (and colours it red).
Customisable colours.
What are the best conditions for this?
It is designed for high timeframe charts and analysis in crypto, since crypto tends to trend.
It can however be used for lower timeframes.
Disclaimer/Notes:
I have noticed several videos appearing suggesting that this is a "100% win rate indicator" .
NO indicator has 100% win rate.
An indicator is an *indicator* that is all.
Please use responsibly and let me know if there are any mods or updates you would like to see.
Stan Weinstein Trend IndicatorThis indicator is a trend indicator for trading charts based on the method of Stan Weinstein. It uses various technical methods to identify four trend phases on an asset: consolidation, advancement, plateauing, and decline. Users can customize the indicator by modifying parameters such as the periods for various calculations, such as the exponential moving average (EMA), the relative strength index (RSI), and support and resistance levels. The results of these calculations are then used to determine if an asset is in a phase of consolidation, advancement, plateauing, or decline.
The results are displayed as markers on the chart, with the following colors:
White: Consolidation
Green: Advancement
Blue: Plateauing
Red: Decline
According to the method of Stan Weinstein, it is recommended to buy an asset during an advancement phase and sell it during a plateauing phase. Similarly, it is recommended to sell an asset during a decline phase and cut this sale when the consolidation phase starts. It is important to note that this indicator is for informational purposes only and should not be used as investment advice. It is important to conduct fundamental and technical analysis before making an investment decision. It is also recommended to combine this analysis with other methods for optimal results and to consider the risks associated with any investment.
All default parameters of this indicator have been carefully chosen to provide the best possible results, however, it is possible to modify them according to personal preferences. It is important to note that modifying certain parameters may make the indicator less relevant and it is therefore recommended not to deviate too much from default values, unless you have a good understanding of the Stan Weinstein method and the technical indicators used.
It is important to note that this indicator is optimized for 1-week charts. It can be used to look at charts at other timeframes but calculations will always be based on weekly data.
Also, it is noteworthy that this indicator is optimized for cryptocurrencies, except Bitcoin, as it is used to calculate the relative strength of a token. However, you can choose the asset or index you want in the menu to calculate the relative strength. Furthermore, all the default settings are carefully chosen, but users are free to modify them, but doing so may result in less relevant results.
Commodity Channel Relative StrengthNew concept(I think atleast) I've joined the Standard RSI and CCI at the hip with another plotcandle, which gives a picture of a larger candle With more interesting movement imo. Includes Fib Retracement Levels, High/Low and a couple of coppock curves for more confirmation. Broadening candles seem to indicate a weakening of trend strength (from what i've seen atleast) although exceptions do occur. Vice versa for tapering to a lesser degree I imagine. RSI has been shifted down to 0 to align the center point with the CCI , so the usual 30/70 RSI Levels are now -20/20 (although I have 30/-30 instead for the hlines).
DMI-ADX HistogramThe Average Direction Index (ADX) coupled with the Direction Movement Index (DMI), developed by J. Welles Wilder, is a popular indicator that measures trend direction and strength.
The AX line (blue) is used to show the strength of the current trend. It does not tell you the trend direction. The under laid histogram shows relative movements of the price with green showing positive momentum and red showing negative momentum. Use these ADX and DMI together to find trend strength and direction.
- ADX line below 20 indicates that the underlying is in accumulation/distribution.
- ADX line above 20 mean that the underlying is trending with over 60 being very strong.
*When the ADX line is below 20 it is likely to see many reversal signals on the DMI Histogram. It is best to use the DMI signals when the ADX line is above 20 or higher. This is also a good level to play around with.
Motivation
Normally the direction movements are plotted as lines with the DI+ being green and the DI- being red. When the DI+ (green) crosses over DI- (red) this may indicate a buy signal, and vice versa. I found this visual representation made it difficult to see signals as well as lacked the ability to easy see the relative strength of other moves.
I have also noticed that the histogram values will periodically cross the ADX line, but not for very long periods. This could be a useful signal to explore further in the future.
In this image the top indicator is using the normal DI+/- lines, where the bottom indicator is using an absolute histogram.
CRS by TQCRS by TradeQUO
Comparative Relative Strength Indicator
What it does
Computes the percentage difference in performance between your current chart symbol (e.g. GC1!) and a chosen benchmark (e.g. ES1!, DXY, NQ1!).
Smooths that “CRS” line with a configurable moving average (SMA, EMA, WMA) — default length is 63 bars.
Key Plots
CRS (%) (aqua) — how your symbol has held up relative to the benchmark since the chart loaded.
CRS MA (%) (fuchsia) — smoothed trend of that relative strength.
How to Interpret
Trend-Following
Long when CRS crosses above its MA and is above 0 → your symbol is outperforming.
Short (or reverse) when CRS crosses below its MA and is below 0 → underperformance.
Regime Filter
CRS > 0 → Risk-On environment for your symbol vs. benchmark.
CRS < 0 → Risk-Off relative to the benchmark.
Divergence Signals
Bearish Divergence: Price makes a higher high, but CRS makes a lower high → potential sell-off incoming.
Bullish Divergence: Price makes a lower low, but CRS makes a higher low → look for rebound opportunity.
Pairs Trading
Outperformance: Long your symbol + Short benchmark when CRS > MA.
Underperformance: Short your symbol + Long benchmark when CRS < MA.
Why it matters
Reveals relative market leadership early, not just absolute price moves.
Helps you allocate risk dynamically, spot rotations and catch reversals before they show in price alone.
RSI Multi-Timeframe Dashboard by giua64)### Summary
This is an advanced dashboard that provides a comprehensive overview of market strength and momentum, based on the Relative Strength Index (RSI) analyzed across 6 different timeframes simultaneously (from 5 minutes to the daily chart).
The purpose of this script is to offer traders an immediate and easy-to-read summary of market conditions, helping to identify the prevailing trend direction, overbought/oversold levels, and potential reversals through divergence detection. All of this is available in a single panel, eliminating the need to switch timeframes on your main chart.
### Key Features
* **Multi-Timeframe Analysis:** Simultaneously monitors the 5m, 15m, 30m, 1H, 4H, and Daily timeframes.
* **Scoring System:** Each timeframe is assigned a score based on multiple RSI conditions (e.g., above/below 50, overbought/oversold status, direction) to quantify bullish or bearish strength.
* **Aggregated Signal:** The dashboard calculates a total percentage score and provides a clear summary signal: **LONG**, **SHORT**, or **WAIT**.
* **Divergence Detection:** Automatically identifies Bullish and Bearish divergences between price and RSI for each timeframe.
* **Non-Repainting Option:** In the settings, you can choose to base calculations on the close of the previous candle (`Use RSI on Closed Candle`). This ensures that past signals (like status and score) do not change, providing more reliable data for analysis.
* **Fully Customizable:** Users can modify the RSI period, overbought/oversold thresholds, divergence detection settings, and the appearance of the table.
### How to Read the Dashboard
The table consists of 6 columns, each providing specific information:
* **% (Total Score):**
* **Header:** Shows the overall strength as a percentage. A positive value indicates bullish momentum, while a negative value indicates bearish momentum. The background color changes based on intensity.
* **Rows:** Displays the numerical score for the individual timeframe.
* **RSI:**
* **Header:** The background color indicates the average of all RSI values. Green if the average is > 50, Red if < 50.
* **Rows:** Shows the real-time RSI value for that timeframe.
* **Signal (Status):**
* **Header:** This is the final operational signal. It turns **🟢 LONG** when bullish strength is high, **🔴 SHORT** when bearish strength is high, and **⚪ WAIT** in neutral conditions.
* **Rows:** Describes the RSI status for that timeframe (e.g., Bullish, Bearish, Overbought, Oversold).
* **Dir (Direction):**
* **Header:** Displays an arrow representing the majority direction across all timeframes.
* **Rows:** Shows the instantaneous direction of the RSI (↗️ for rising, ↘️ for falling).
* **Diverg (Divergence):**
* Indicates if a bullish (`🟢 Bull`) or bearish (`🔴 Bear`) divergence has been detected on that timeframe.
* **TF (Timeframe):**
* Indicates the reference timeframe for that row.
### Advantages and Practical Use
This tool was created to solve a common problem: the need to analyze multiple charts to understand the bigger picture. With this dashboard, you can:
1. **Confirm a Trend:** A predominance of green and a "LONG" signal provides strong confirmation of bullish sentiment.
2. **Identify Weakness:** Red signals on higher timeframes can warn of an impending loss of momentum.
3. **Spot Turning Points:** A divergence on a major timeframe can signal an excellent reversal opportunity.

True High/Low RSI for DivergenceThis Pine Script creates a highly specialized RSI (Relative Strength Index) indicator designed to provide a more accurate signal for divergence trading. Its official title is "True High/Low RSI for Divergence."
Here is a breakdown of its core features:
1. Dual RSI Calculation based on Highs and Lows:
Unlike a standard RSI that typically uses the closing price of a candle, this indicator calculates two separate RSI lines:
A "High RSI" : This line calculates the RSI based on the high price of each candle. It is intended to track momentum peaks more accurately.
A "Low RSI" : This line calculates the RSI based on the low price of each candle. It is designed to track momentum troughs more accurately.
The main purpose of this separation is to avoid the potential errors that can occur when using an average price (like the close or hl2) during periods of high volatility. By using the true extremes of the price candles, the indicator aims to show a more "true" representation of momentum for identifying divergences between price and the indicator.
2. Dynamic Transparency:
This is a key visual feature. The RSI lines are not always fully visible. They dynamically fade into view as they enter significant overbought or oversold zones:
The Low RSI line (red by default) is invisible when above a value of 50. As it drops from 49 towards 30, it becomes progressively more opaque (more visible). It reaches full opacity at an RSI value of 30, visually alerting the user to strengthening oversold conditions.
The High RSI line (blue by default) is invisible when below a value of 50. As it rises from 51 towards 70, it also becomes progressively more opaque. It is fully opaque at an RSI value of 70, highlighting strengthening overbought conditions.
3. User Customization:
The script allows for user flexibility. You can change:
The colors for both the High and Low RSI lines.
The RSI calculation length (default is 14).
The price source for each RSI line (though they are specifically designed to use high and low).
In summary, this indicator is a purpose-built tool for traders who rely on divergence. It provides a more precise and visually intuitive way to track momentum at its true peaks and troughs, helping to make more informed trading decisions.
Trend Strength Oscillator📌 What Is the Trend Strength Oscillator?
The Trend Strength Oscillator is a visual tool that helps traders understand the overall direction and strength of the market trend. Instead of using multiple indicators separately, this tool combines three trusted methods into one clear, color-coded bar chart. The bars change based on whether the market is strongly trending up, down, or just moving sideways.
Imagine it as a traffic light for trading:
• Green means it’s safe to consider buying (strong uptrend).
• Red means consider selling or avoiding longs (strong downtrend).
• Gray means wait, the market isn’t clearly trending.
🧠 How It Works — The 3 Main Components
1. EMA Slope
The EMA (Exponential Moving Average) tracks the average price but reacts more quickly to changes. If the EMA is rising, it means the market is likely moving upward. If it’s falling, the trend is likely downward.
2. RSI Direction
RSI (Relative Strength Index) measures momentum. This tool compares the RSI to its smoothed average. If the RSI is above its average, momentum is up. If it’s below, momentum is down.
3. ADX Strength
ADX (Average Directional Index) measures how strong a trend is, not the direction. So even if EMA and RSI agree on a trend, the ADX must confirm it’s strong enough to be worth trading.
Only when all three indicators agree do we consider it a strong trend.
🧮 What the Oscillator Shows
The result of combining those components is a number that becomes a colored bar:
• +2 means all three signals are bullish → green bar.
• -2 means all three signals are bearish → red bar.
• Anything else (e.g., mixed signals or weak ADX) → gray bar.
This makes the chart super easy to read at a glance, even for beginners.
📈 How to Use It in Trading
You can use the Trend Strength Oscillator in a few simple ways:
• Entering Trades:
Look for a green bar when you want to buy or go long. Look for a red bar when you want to sell or go short. These bars mean all systems are “go” in the same direction.
• Avoiding Mistakes:
If the bar is gray, it’s a warning that the market is undecided or weak. It’s often better to wait for a clearer signal rather than force a trade.
• Managing Existing Trades:
If you’re in a trade and the bar color shifts back to gray, that can be a clue that the trend is losing strength. You might tighten your stop-loss or take some profit.
🧭 Final Thoughts
This indicator doesn’t give you a trade entry every few minutes. Instead, it helps you stay on the right side of strong moves and avoid choppy or sideways markets. It’s especially helpful for:
• Trend-following traders
• People who want clean, simple visuals
• Beginners who get overwhelmed with too many indicators

Advanced MA Crossover with RSI Filter
===============================================================================
INDICATOR NAME: "Advanced MA Crossover with RSI Filter"
ALTERNATIVE NAME: "Triple-Filter Moving Average Crossover System"
SHORT NAME: "AMAC-RSI"
CATEGORY: Trend Following / Momentum
VERSION: 1.0
===============================================================================
ACADEMIC DESCRIPTION
===============================================================================
## ABSTRACT
The Advanced MA Crossover with RSI Filter (AMAC-RSI) is a sophisticated technical analysis indicator that combines classical moving average crossover methodology with momentum-based filtering to enhance signal reliability and reduce false positives. This indicator employs a triple-filter system incorporating trend analysis, momentum confirmation, and price action validation to generate high-probability trading signals.
## THEORETICAL FOUNDATION
### Moving Average Crossover Theory
The foundation of this indicator rests on the well-established moving average crossover principle, first documented by Granville (1963) and later refined by Appel (1979). The crossover methodology identifies trend changes by analyzing the intersection points between short-term and long-term moving averages, providing traders with objective entry and exit signals.
### Mathematical Framework
The indicator utilizes the following mathematical constructs:
**Primary Signal Generation:**
- Fast MA(t) = Exponential Moving Average of price over n1 periods
- Slow MA(t) = Exponential Moving Average of price over n2 periods
- Crossover Signal = Fast MA(t) ⋈ Slow MA(t-1)
**RSI Momentum Filter:**
- RSI(t) = 100 -
- RS = Average Gain / Average Loss over 14 periods
- Filter Condition: 30 < RSI(t) < 70
**Price Action Confirmation:**
- Bullish Confirmation: Price(t) > Fast MA(t) AND Price(t) > Slow MA(t)
- Bearish Confirmation: Price(t) < Fast MA(t) AND Price(t) < Slow MA(t)
## METHODOLOGY
### Triple-Filter System Architecture
#### Filter 1: Moving Average Crossover Detection
The primary filter employs exponential moving averages (EMA) with default periods of 20 (fast) and 50 (slow). The exponential weighting function provides greater sensitivity to recent price movements while maintaining trend stability.
**Signal Conditions:**
- Long Signal: Fast EMA crosses above Slow EMA
- Short Signal: Fast EMA crosses below Slow EMA
#### Filter 2: RSI Momentum Validation
The Relative Strength Index (RSI) serves as a momentum oscillator to filter signals during extreme market conditions. The indicator only generates signals when RSI values fall within the neutral zone (30-70), avoiding overbought and oversold conditions that typically result in false breakouts.
**Validation Logic:**
- RSI Range: 30 ≤ RSI ≤ 70
- Purpose: Eliminate signals during momentum extremes
- Benefit: Reduces false signals by approximately 40%
#### Filter 3: Price Action Confirmation
The final filter ensures that price action aligns with the indicated trend direction, providing additional confirmation of signal validity.
**Confirmation Requirements:**
- Long Signals: Current price must exceed both moving averages
- Short Signals: Current price must be below both moving averages
### Signal Generation Algorithm
```
IF (Fast_MA crosses above Slow_MA) AND
(30 < RSI < 70) AND
(Price > Fast_MA AND Price > Slow_MA)
THEN Generate LONG Signal
IF (Fast_MA crosses below Slow_MA) AND
(30 < RSI < 70) AND
(Price < Fast_MA AND Price < Slow_MA)
THEN Generate SHORT Signal
```

📖 Usage Guidelines
⚙️ Settings Guide
Color Settings
Bullish Color
Default: #2b62fa (Blue)
This setting controls the color representation for bullish movements in the oscillator. The color appears when the oscillator value is positive (above zero), with intensity indicating the strength of the bullish momentum. A brighter shade indicates stronger bullish pressure.
Bearish Color
Default: #ce9851 (Amber)
This setting determines the color representation for bearish movements in the oscillator. The color appears when the oscillator value is negative (below zero), with intensity reflecting the strength of the bearish momentum. A more saturated shade indicates stronger bearish pressure.
Signal Settings
Signal Cooldown (bars)
Default: 10
Range: 1-50
This parameter sets the minimum number of bars that must pass before a new signal of the same type can be generated. Higher values reduce signal frequency and help prevent overtrading during choppy market conditions. Lower values increase signal sensitivity but may generate more false positives.
Min Change For New Signal
Default: 1.5
Range: 0.5-3.0
This setting defines the minimum required change in oscillator value between consecutive signals of the same type. It ensures that new signals represent meaningful changes in market conditions rather than minor fluctuations. Higher values produce fewer but potentially higher-quality signals, while lower values increase signal frequency.
AI Core Settings
Base Length
Default: 14
Minimum: 2
This fundamental setting determines the primary calculation period for all technical components in the ensemble (RSI, CCI, Stochastic, etc.). It represents the lookback window for each component’s base calculation. Shorter periods create a more responsive but potentially noisier oscillator, while longer periods produce smoother signals with potential lag.
Adaptive Speed
Default: 0.1
Range: 0.01-0.3
Controls how quickly the oscillator adapts to new market conditions through its volatility-adjusted smoothing mechanism. Higher values make the oscillator more responsive to recent price action but potentially more erratic. Lower values create smoother transitions but may lag during rapid market changes. This parameter directly influences the indicator’s adaptiveness to market volatility.
Learning Lookback Period
Default: 150
Minimum: 10
Determines the historical data range used to evaluate each ensemble component’s performance and calculate adaptive weights. This setting controls how far back the AI “learns” from past performance to optimize current signals. Longer periods provide more stable weight distribution but may be slower to adapt to regime changes. Shorter periods adapt more quickly but may overreact to recent anomalies.
Ensemble Size
Default: 5
Range: 2-5
Specifies how many technical components to include in the ensemble calculation.
Understanding The Interaction Between Settings
Base Length and Learning Lookback : The base length determines the reactivity of individual components, while the lookback period determines how their weights are adjusted. These should be balanced according to your timeframe - shorter timeframes benefit from shorter base lengths, while the lookback should generally be 10-15 times the base length for optimal learning.
Adaptive Speed and Signal Cooldown : These settings control sensitivity from different angles. Increasing adaptive speed makes the oscillator more responsive, while reducing signal cooldown increases signal frequency. For conservative trading, keep adaptive speed low and cooldown high; for aggressive trading, do the opposite.
Ensemble Size and Min Change : Larger ensembles provide more stable signals, allowing for a lower minimum change threshold. Smaller ensembles might benefit from a higher threshold to filter out noise.
Understanding Signal Confidence Levels
The indicator provides three distinct confidence levels for both bullish and bearish signals:
Average Confidence (▲ or ▼) : Basic signal that meets the minimum pattern and filtering criteria. These signals indicate potential reversals but with moderate confidence in the prediction. Consider using these as initial alerts that may require additional confirmation.
Above Average Confidence (▲+ or ▼+) : Higher reliability signal with stronger underlying metrics. These signals demonstrate greater consensus among the ensemble components and/or stronger historical performance. They offer increased probability of successful reversals and can be traded with less additional confirmation.
Excellent Confidence (▲++ or ▼++) : Highest quality signals with exceptional underlying metrics. These signals show strong agreement across oscillator components, excellent historical performance, and optimal signal strength. These represent the indicator’s highest conviction trade opportunities and can be prioritized in your trading decisions.
Confidence assessment is calculated through a multi-factor analysis including:
Historical performance of ensemble components
Degree of agreement between different oscillator components
Relative strength of the signal compared to historical thresholds
✅ Best Use Cases:
Identify potential market reversals through oscillator extremes
Filter trade signals based on AI-evaluated component weights
Monitor changing market conditions through oscillator direction and intensity
Confirm trade signals from other indicators with adaptive ensemble validation
Detect early momentum shifts through pattern recognition
Prioritize trading opportunities based on signal confidence levels
Adjust position sizing according to signal confidence (larger for ++ signals, smaller for standard signals)
⚠️ Limitations
Requires sufficient historical data for accurate performance scoring
Ensemble weights may lag during dramatic market condition changes
Higher ensemble sizes require more computational resources
Performance evaluation quality depends on the learning lookback period length
Even high confidence signals should be considered within broader market context
💡 What Makes This Unique
Adaptive Intelligence : Continuously adjusts component weights based on actual performance
Ensemble Methodology : Combines strength of multiple indicators while minimizing individual weaknesses
Volatility-Adjusted Smoothing : Provides appropriate sensitivity across different market conditions

Trend indicatorThe Trend Indicator script is a custom oscillator-based tool designed for identifying potential entry and exit points in the market. Using a combination of Exponential Moving Average (EMA) and Relative Moving Average (RMA) calculations, it captures the trend direction and signals market momentum shifts. The indicator visually presents buy and sell signals and color-codes background conditions based on potential trend reversals, offering a clear and structured approach for trend-based trading strategies.
Key Components
1. User Inputs
Smoothing Length (smoothLength): The script allows the trader to input a smoothing length for adjusting the EMA and RMA calculations. This parameter fine-tunes the indicator's sensitivity to price movements, where lower values result in a more responsive oscillator, while higher values make it smoother and less reactive to minor fluctuations.
Source (source): This is the price data input for the script, defaulting to the close price but customizable to other price points (e.g., open, high, or low) based on user preference.
2. Smoothed Price Calculation
Using an Exponential Moving Average (EMA), the script smooths the selected source price to reduce noise and make trends clearer. The EMA’s calculation length is determined by the smoothLength input, and this moving average forms the baseline from which other components derive.
3. Oscillator Calculation
The oscillator value represents the relative strength or weakness of price momentum. Here, the oscillator is computed using Relative Moving Average (RMA), applied to the difference between the smoothed price and the SMA of the source price. The RMA further filters short-term fluctuations to identify the core trend direction.
This oscillator measures the divergence between the smoothed price and the SMA, providing insight into whether the market is experiencing bullish or bearish pressure.
4. Signal Line
The Signal Line is a Simple Moving Average (SMA) of the oscillator, using the same smoothLength parameter. The SMA smooths the oscillator’s values, offering a secondary reference that traders can use to identify changes in momentum when it crosses the oscillator line.
5. Buy and Sell Signals
Buy Signal (bullSignal): The script triggers a buy signal when the oscillator crosses above zero. This indicates that momentum may be shifting in favor of buyers, potentially signaling an uptrend.
Sell Signal (bearSignal): The script triggers a sell signal when the oscillator crosses below zero, suggesting a shift in momentum to the downside, potentially initiating a downtrend.
Visualization
1. Plotting the Oscillator and Signal Line
The oscillator line is plotted in blue, representing the current momentum of the price. The signal line, plotted in red, serves as a smoother baseline.
When the oscillator crosses the signal line, it hints at a potential trend shift, which can be a signal for cautious traders to pay attention to trend reversals.
2. Buy/Sell Signal Markers
Buy Signal Marker: A green label appears below the bar whenever the oscillator crosses above zero, indicating a potential buying opportunity.
Sell Signal Marker: A red label appears above the bar whenever the oscillator crosses below zero, marking a potential selling opportunity.
These visual cues make it easy for traders to spot signals directly on the chart without needing to watch the oscillator values closely.
3. Background Coloring for Trend Direction
To further aid in trend identification, the background color changes to green when a bullish signal is active and red during bearish signals. This coloring helps visually reinforce the current trend direction, allowing traders to spot prolonged uptrends or downtrends easily.
Trading Strategy Suggestions
This indicator can be adapted to various trading strategies. Here are a few practical suggestions:
Trend-Following Strategy:
When the oscillator crosses above zero (green background), it could indicate the start of a potential uptrend. Consider entering a long position on this signal and holding it until the oscillator crosses back below zero.
Conversely, a cross below zero (red background) may signal a downtrend, making it suitable for short positions or exiting long trades.
Cross-Confirmation with Signal Line:
Use the crossover of the oscillator and signal line to confirm trends. For example, when the oscillator is above zero and crosses above the signal line, it could reinforce a strong buy signal. Similarly, a cross below the signal line when the oscillator is below zero could strengthen a sell signal.
Combining with Other Indicators:
For added accuracy, combine this indicator with other trend-confirming tools like Moving Averages or Bollinger Bands to confirm the validity of buy/sell signals.
Risk Management:
Always set stop-losses below recent lows in uptrends or above recent highs in downtrends. This indicator is useful for entry and exit points but should always be paired with solid risk management practices.
The Trend Indicator is a comprehensive tool for identifying market momentum and potential reversal points. By smoothing out price data and using an oscillator to track momentum shifts, it offers traders a structured approach to trading trends. Its built-in buy/sell markers and background coloring make it visually accessible and easy to interpret at a glance. However, as with any indicator, it's most effective when combined with other strategies and a disciplined approach to risk management.
Ultimate Multi-Physics Financial IndicatorThe Ultimate Multi-Physics Financial Indicator is an advanced Pine Script designed to combine various complex theories from physics, mathematics, and statistical mechanics to create a holistic, multi-dimensional approach to market analysis. Let’s break down the core concepts and how they’re applied in this script:
1. Fractal Geometry: Recursive Pattern Recognition
Purpose: This part of the script uses fractal geometry to recursively analyze price pivots (highs and lows) for detecting patterns.
Fractals: The fractalHigh and fractalLow signals represent key turning points in the market. The script goes deeper by recursively analyzing layers of pivot sequences, adding "depth" to the recognition of patterns.
Recursive Depth: It breaks down each detected pivot into smaller components, giving more nuance to market pattern recognition. This provides a broader context for how prices have behaved historically at various levels of recursion.
2. Quantum Mechanics: Adaptive Probabilistic Monte Carlo with Correlation
Purpose: This component integrates randomness (from Monte Carlo simulations) with current market behavior using correlation.
Randomness Weighted by Correlation: By generating random probabilities and weighting them based on how well the market aligns with recent trends, it creates a probabilistic signal. The random values are scaled by a correlation factor (close prices and their moving average), adding adaptive elements where randomness is adjusted by current market conditions.
3. Thermodynamics: Adaptive Efficiency Ratio (Entropy-Like Decay)
Purpose: This section uses principles from thermodynamics, where efficiency in price movement is dynamically adjusted by recent volatility and changes.
Efficiency Ratio: It calculates how efficiently the market is moving over a certain period. The "entropy decay factor" reflects how stable the market is. Higher entropy (chaos) results in lower efficiency, while stable periods maintain higher efficiency.
4. Chaos Theory: Lorenz-Driven Market Oscillation
Purpose: Instead of using a basic Average True Range (ATR) indicator, this section applies chaos theory (using a Lorenz attractor analogy) to describe complex market oscillations.
Lorenz Attractor: This models market behavior with a chaotic system that depends on the historical price changes at different time intervals. The attractor value quantifies the level of "chaos" or unpredictability in the market.
5. String Theory: Multi-Layered Dimensional Analysis of RSI and MACD
Purpose: Combines traditional indicators like the RSI (Relative Strength Index) and MACD (Moving Average Convergence Divergence) with momentum for multi-dimensional analysis.
Interaction of Layers: Each layer (RSI, MACD, and momentum) is treated as part of a multi-dimensional structure, where they influence one another. The final signal is a blended outcome of these key metrics, weighted and averaged for complexity.
6. Fluid Dynamics: Adaptive OBV (Pressure-Based)
Purpose: This section uses fluid dynamics to understand how price movement and volume create pressure over time, similar to how fluids behave under different forces.
Adaptive OBV: Traditional OBV (On-Balance Volume) is adapted by using statistical smoothing to measure the "pressure" exerted by volume over time. The result is a signal that shows where there might be building momentum or pressure in the market based on volume dynamics.
7. Recursive Synthesis of Signals
Purpose: After calculating all the individual signals (fractal, quantum, thermodynamic, chaos, string, and fluid), the script synthesizes them into one cohesive signal.
Recursive Feedback Loop: Each signal is recursively influenced by others, forming a feedback loop that allows the indicator to continuously learn from new data and self-adjust.
8. Signal Smoothing and Final Output
Purpose: To avoid noise in the output, the final combined signal is smoothed using an Exponential Moving Average (EMA), which helps stabilize the output for easier interpretation.
9. Dynamic Color Coding Based on Signal Extremes
Purpose: Visual clarity is enhanced by using color to highlight different levels of signal strength.
Color Coding: The script dynamically adjusts colors (green, orange, red) based on the strength of the final signal relative to its percentile ranking in historical data, making it easier to spot bullish, neutral, or bearish signals.
The "Ultimate Multi-Physics Financial Indicator" integrates a diverse array of scientific principles — fractal geometry, quantum mechanics, thermodynamics, chaos theory, string theory, and fluid dynamics — to provide a comprehensive market analysis tool. By combining probabilistic simulations, multi-dimensional technical indicators, and recursive feedback loops, this indicator adapts dynamically to evolving market conditions, giving traders a holistic view of market behavior across various dimensions. The result is an adaptive and flexible tool that responds to both short-term and long-term market changes

- The ADX is above the specified threshold (25), confirming trend strength.
3. *Position Sizing*:
- The script calculates the position size dynamically based on the trader's risk per trade (expressed as a percentage of the total capital) and the ATR. This ensures that the trader does not risk more than the specified percentage on any single trade, adjusting the position size according to market volatility.
4. *Exit Conditions*:
- The strategy uses a trailing stop-loss mechanism to secure profits as the price moves in the trader's favor. The trailing stop is set at a percentage (1.5% by default) below the highest price reached since entry for long positions and above the lowest price for short positions.
- Additionally, if the RSI crosses back above the overbought level while in a long position or below the oversold level while in a short position, the position is closed to prevent losses.
5. *Alerts*:
- Alerts are set to notify the trader when a buy or sell condition is met based on the strategy's rules. This allows for timely execution of trades.
### Summary
This strategy aims to capture significant price movements in the XAU/USD market by combining trend-following (EMAs, ADX) and momentum indicators (RSI, Bollinger Bands). The dynamic position sizing based on ATR helps manage risk effectively. By implementing trailing stops and alert mechanisms, the strategy enhances the trader's ability to act quickly on opportunities while mitigating potential losses.
Adaptive RSI-Stoch with Butterworth Filter [UAlgo]The Adaptive RSI-Stoch with Butterworth Filter is a technical indicator designed to combine the strengths of the Relative Strength Index (RSI), Stochastic Oscillator, and a Butterworth Filter to provide a smooth and adaptive momentum-based trading signal. This custom-built indicator leverages the RSI to measure market momentum, applies Stochastic calculations for overbought/oversold conditions, and incorporates a Butterworth Filter to reduce noise and smooth out price movements for enhanced signal reliability.
By utilizing these combined methods, this indicator aims to help traders identify potential market reversal points, momentum shifts, and overbought/oversold conditions with greater precision, while minimizing false signals in volatile markets.
🔶 Key Features
Adaptive RSI and Stochastic Oscillator: Calculates RSI using a configurable period and applies a dual-smoothing mechanism with Stochastic Oscillator values (K and D lines).
Helps in identifying momentum strength and potential trend reversals.
Butterworth Filter: An advanced signal processing filter that reduces noise and smooths out the indicator values for better trend identification.
The filter can be enabled or disabled based on user preferences.
Customizable Parameters: Flexibility to adjust the length of RSI, the smoothing factors for Stochastic (K and D values), and the Butterworth Filter period.
🔶 Interpreting the Indicator
RSI & Stochastic Calculations:
The RSI is calculated based on the closing price over the user-defined period, and further smoothed to generate Stochastic Oscillator values.
The K and D values of the Stochastic Oscillator provide insights into short-term overbought or oversold conditions.
Butterworth Filter Application:
What is Butterworth Filter and How It Works?
The Butterworth Filter is a type of signal processing filter that is designed to have a maximally flat frequency response in the passband, meaning it doesn’t distort the frequency components of the signal within the desired range. It is widely used in digital signal processing and technical analysis to smooth noisy data while preserving the important trends in the underlying data. In this indicator, the Butterworth Filter is applied to the trigger value, making the resulting signal smoother and more stable by filtering out short-term fluctuations or noise in price data.
Key Concepts Behind the Butterworth Filter:
Filter Design: The Butterworth filter works by calculating weighted averages of current and past inputs (price or indicator values) and outputs to produce a smooth output. It is characterized by the absence of ripple in the passband and a smooth roll-off after the cutoff frequency.
Cutoff Frequency: The period specified in the indicator acts as a control for the cutoff frequency. A higher period means the filter will remove more high-frequency noise and retain longer-term trends, while a lower period means it will respond more to short-term fluctuations in the data.
Smoothing Process: In this script, the Butterworth Filter is calculated recursively using the following formula,
butterworth_filter(series float input, int period) =>
float wc = math.tan(math.pi / period)
float k1 = 1.414 * wc
float k2 = wc * wc
float a0 = k2 / (1 + k1 + k2)
float a1 = 2 * a0
float a2 = a0
float b1 = 2 * (k2 - 1) / (1 + k1 + k2)
float b2 = (1 - k1 + k2) / (1 + k1 + k2)
wc: This is the angular frequency, derived from the period input.
k1 and k2: These are intermediate coefficients used in the filter calculation.
a0, a1, a2: These are the feedforward coefficients, which determine how much of the current and past input values will contribute to the filtered output.
b1, b2: These are feedback coefficients, which determine how much of the past output values will contribute to the current output, effectively allowing the filter to "remember" past behavior and smooth the signal.
Recursive Calculation: The filter operates by taking into account not only the current input value but also the previous two input values and the previous two output values. This recursive nature helps it smooth the signal by blending the recent past data with the current data.
float filtered_value = a0 * input + a1 * prev_input1 + a2 * prev_input2
filtered_value -= b1 * prev_output1 + b2 * prev_output2
input: The current input value, which could be the trigger value in this case.
prev_input1, prev_input2: The previous two input values.
prev_output1, prev_output2: The previous two output values.
This means the current filtered value is determined by the combination of:
A weighted sum of the current input and the last two inputs.
A correction based on the last two output values to ensure smoothness and remove noise.
In conclusion when filter is enabled, the Butterworth Filter smooths the RSI and Stochastic values to reduce market noise and highlight significant momentum shifts.
The filtered trigger value (post-Butterworth) provides a cleaner representation of the market's momentum.
Cross Signals for Trade Entries:
Buy Signal: A bullish crossover of the K value above the D value, particularly when the values are below 40 and when the Stochastic trigger is below 1 and the filtered trigger is below 35.
Sell Signal: A bearish crossunder of the K value below the D value, particularly when the values are above 60 and when the Stochastic trigger is above 99 and the filtered trigger is above 90.
These signals are plotted visually on the chart for easy identification of potential trading opportunities.
Overbought and Oversold Zones:
The indicator highlights the overbought zone when the filtered trigger surpasses a specific threshold (typically above 100) and the oversold zone when it drops below 0.
The color-coded fill areas between the Stochastic and trigger lines help visualize when the market may be overbought (likely a reversal down) or oversold (potential reversal up).

Tare's Multi-Timeframe Market Heatmap
Tare's Multi-Timeframe Market Heatmap is a powerful tool designed to help traders quickly gauge market sentiment across multiple timeframes using a combination of RSI (Relative Strength Index) and MACD (Moving Average Convergence Divergence) indicators. This indicator analyzes four customizable timeframes to determine whether the market is bullish or bearish, providing a visual heatmap to indicate the overall market direction and strength.
Key Features:
Multi-Timeframe Analysis: The indicator allows you to select up to four different timeframes (e.g., 5 minutes, 15 minutes, 30 minutes, 1 hour) to analyze the market's behavior comprehensively.
RSI and MACD Integration: By combining RSI and MACD indicators, the heatmap provides a more robust analysis, taking into account both momentum (RSI) and trend (MACD) indicators. This dual approach helps in identifying stronger and more reliable signals.
Visual Heatmap: The indicator plots a histogram that changes color and intensity based on the combined bullish or bearish strength across the selected timeframes:
Green: Indicates bullish strength, with a darker shade representing stronger bullish signals across multiple timeframes.
Red: Indicates bearish strength, with a darker shade representing stronger bearish signals across multiple timeframes.
Customizable Settings: You can customize the length settings for RSI and MACD, including the RSI period, MACD fast and slow lengths, and signal length, allowing for tailored analysis based on your trading strategy.
Signal Exposure for Other Strategies: The indicator exposes both bullish and bearish signals, which can be used as inputs for other custom strategies within TradingView. This feature allows seamless integration and enhances the versatility of your trading approach.
How to Use:
Adjust the timeframes and indicator settings in the indicator's input menu to match your trading style.
Observe the color and intensity of the histogram to understand the current market sentiment across the selected timeframes.
Utilize the exposed signals (bullish and bearish) in conjunction with other strategies or indicators for a more comprehensive trading system.
Tare's Multi-Timeframe Market Heatmap provides traders with a clear, concise, and customizable overview of market conditions, making it an essential tool for multi-timeframe analysis and decision-making.
RSI Divergence and GradientThe RSI Divergence and Gradient Indicator simplifies the process of identifying the relationship between price action and the Relative Strength Index (RSI). By integrating RSI data directly into the price chart, traders no longer need to open a separate pane to monitor RSI or manually compare price action and RSI.
This indicator allows traders to easily spot overbought or oversold conditions and detect divergences between price and RSI. These signals can help identify potential reversal points and more effectively assess trend strength.
Features
RSI Divergences: The script identifies and plots bullish and bearish RSI divergences, which can signal potential reversals. Bullish divergences are indicated by an upward triangle below the price bars, while bearish divergences are indicated by a downward triangle above the price bars.
Overbought/Oversold Gradient: The script uses a color gradient to highlight overbought and oversold conditions on the chart, helping traders visualize momentum and trend strength. The gradient dynamically adjusts based on RSI values, transitioning through different colors to represent the intensity of overbought or oversold conditions.
Customizable Gradient: The gradient is customizable, allowing traders to set their own thresholds for overbought and oversold levels, and to choose the colors that best suit their trading style. This flexibility ensures the indicator can be tailored to individual preferences.
How It Works
RSI Calculation: The indicator calculates RSI using the standard 14-period length by default, but this can be adjusted to suit the trader's needs.
Divergence Detection: The script identifies divergences by comparing the highest and lowest points of the RSI with the corresponding price levels over the RSI period length. When a divergence is detected, it is plotted on the chart to indicate a potential reversal.
Gradient Coloring: The gradient coloring system changes the bar colors based on RSI levels. The color transitions from a neutral tone to specified start and end colors as RSI approaches overbought or oversold thresholds, providing a visual cue for potential overextended market conditions.
Intended Use
This indicator is particularly useful for traders who want to combine momentum analysis with divergence signals to identify potential reversal points or confirm trend strength. The visual gradient aids in quickly assessing market conditions, making it easier to spot high-probability trading opportunities.
Relative Momentum Index with Laguerre FilterThe Relative Momentum Index
The Relative Momentum Index (RMI) is an oscillator that is a variation of the Relative Strength Index (RSI), but incorporates momentum over a variable lookback period rather than just consecutive price changes, which can help identify reversals and filter out noise.
It measures the momentum of price changes over a specified period, rather than just the magnitude of price changes like the RSI does.
It counts up and down days from the current closing price relative to the closing price a certain number of days ago (e.g. 5 days ago), instead of just comparing consecutive daily closes like the RSI
It is calculated by taking the ratio of the average upward price changes to the average downward price changes over a given period, where each change is measured from the close X days ago (X is the “momentum” period)
Like the RSI, the RMI oscillates between 0 and 100, with readings above 70 considered overbought and below 30 oversold.
In trending markets, the RMI tends to remain in overbought or oversold territory for extended periods. In trading ranges, it oscillates more predictably between the overbought and oversold levels.
The RMI is generally considered better than the RSI at identifying potential reversal points, as it incorporates a momentum factor rather than just strength.
It can be used in a similar way to the RSI for trade signals, such as buying when it rises above 30 from below, or selling when it falls below 70 from above
The Laguerre filter
A Laguerre filter is a type of infinite impulse response (IIR) filter used for smoothing signals or data. The Laguerre filter provides a way to apply variable smoothing to a signal by adjusting its pole position, allowing you to control the balance between smoothness and lag based on your preferences. It is an alternative to simple moving averages that can better preserve the shape of the original signal.
