🔬 How It Works
1. Structure Identification Process :
The indicator continuously scans price action to identify significant swing points and structure levels within the specified range, establishing a foundation for order block recognition.
2. Break Detection :
When price breaks an established structure level (crossing below a significant low for bearish breaks or above a significant high for bullish breaks), the indicator marks this as a potential zone for order block formation.
3. Volume Qualification :
For each potential order block, the algorithm calculates the relative volume compared to the configured period average. Only blocks formed with volume exceeding the minimum ratio threshold are displayed.
4. Block Creation and Management :
Valid order blocks are created, tracked, and managed as price continues to develop. Blocks extend to the right of the chart until they are either mitigated by price action or expire after the designated timeframe.
5. Continuous Monitoring :
The indicator constantly evaluates price interaction with existing blocks, determining when blocks have been tested, mitigated, or invalidated, and updates the visual representation accordingly.
💡 Note:
Order Blocks represent areas where institutional traders have likely established positions and may defend these zones during future price visits. For optimal results, use this indicator in conjunction with other confluent factors such as key support/resistance levels, trendlines, or additional confirmation indicators. The most reliable signals typically occur on higher timeframes where institutional activity is most prominent. Start with the default settings and adjust parameters gradually to match your specific trading instrument and style.

Quarterly Theory ICT 03 [TradingFinder] Precision Swing Points🔵 Introduction
Precision Swing Point (PSP) is a divergence pattern in the closing of candles between two correlated assets, which can indicate a potential trend reversal. This structure appears at market turning points and highlights discrepancies between the price behavior of two related assets.
PSP typically forms in key timeframes such as 5-minute, 15-minute, and 90-minute charts, and is often used in combination with Smart Money Concepts (SMT) to confirm trade entries.
PSP is categorized into Bearish PSP and Bullish PSP :
Bearish PSP : Occurs when an asset breaks its previous high, and its middle candle closes bullish, while the correlated asset closes bearish at the same level. This divergence signals weakness in the uptrend and a potential price reversal downward.
Bullish PSP : Occurs when an asset breaks its previous low, and its middle candle closes bearish, while the correlated asset closes bullish at the same level. This suggests weakness in the downtrend and a potential price increase.
🟣 Trading Strategies Using Precision Swing Point (PSP)
PSP can be integrated into various trading strategies to improve entry accuracy and filter out false signals. One common method is combining PSP with SMT (divergence between correlated assets), where traders identify divergence and enter a trade only after PSP confirms the move.
Additionally, PSP can act as a liquidity gap, meaning that price tends to react to the wick of the PSP candle, making it a favorable entry point with a tight stop-loss and high risk-to-reward ratio. Furthermore, PSP combined with Order Blocks and Fair Value Gaps in higher timeframes allows traders to identify stronger reversal zones.
In lower timeframes, such as 5-minute or 15-minute charts, PSP can serve as a confirmation for more precise entries in the direction of the higher timeframe trend. This is particularly useful in scalping and intraday trading, helping traders execute smarter entries while minimizing unnecessary stop-outs.
🔵 How to Use
PSP is a trading pattern based on divergence in candle closures between two correlated assets. This divergence signals a difference in trend strength and can be used to identify precise market turning points. PSP is divided into Bullish PSP and Bearish PSP, each applicable for long and short trades.
🟣 Bullish PSP
A Bullish PSP forms when, at a market turning point, the middle candle of one asset closes bearish while the correlated asset closes bullish. This discrepancy indicates weakness in the downtrend and a potential price reversal upward.
Traders can use this as a signal for long (buy) trades. The best approach is to wait for price to return to the wick of the PSP candle, as this area typically acts as a liquidity level.
f PSP forms within an Order Block or Fair Value Gap in a higher timeframe, its reliability increases, allowing for entries with tight stop-loss and optimal risk-to-reward ratios.
🟣 Bearish PSP
A Bearish PSP forms when, at a market turning point, the middle candle of one asset closes bullish while the correlated asset closes bearish. This indicates weakness in the uptrend and a potential price decline.
Traders use this pattern to enter short (sell) trades. The best entry occurs when price retests the wick of the PSP candle, as this level often acts as a resistance zone, pushing price lower.
If PSP aligns with a significant liquidity area or Order Block in a higher timeframe, traders can enter with greater confidence and place their stop-loss just above the PSP wick.
Overall, PSP is a highly effective tool for filtering false signals and improving trade entry precision. Combining PSP with SMT, Order Blocks, and Fair Value Gaps across multiple timeframes allows traders to execute higher-accuracy trades with lower risk.

Bearish Pin Bar Setting : Using the "Ratio Higher Shadow to Body" and "Ratio Higher Shadow to Lower Shadow" settings, you can customize your bearish Pin bar candles. Larger numbers impose stricter conditions for identifying bearish Pin bars.
🔵 Conclusion
Precision Swing Point (PSP) is a powerful analytical tool in Smart Money trading strategies, helping traders identify precise market turning points by detecting divergences in candle closures between correlated assets. PSP is classified into Bullish PSP and Bearish PSP, each playing a crucial role in detecting trend weaknesses and determining optimal entry points for long and short trades.
Using the PSP wick as a key liquidity level, integrating it with SMT, Order Blocks, and Fair Value Gaps, and analyzing higher timeframes are effective techniques to enhance trade entries. Ultimately, PSP serves as a complementary tool for improving entry accuracy and reducing unnecessary stop-outs, making it a valuable addition to Smart Money trading methodologies.
Uptrick: Time Based ReversionIntroduction
The Uptrick: Time Based Reversion indicator is designed to provide a comprehensive view of market momentum and potential trend shifts by combining multiple moving averages, a streak-based trend analysis system, and adaptive color visualization. It helps traders identify strong trends, spot potential reversals, and make more informed trading decisions.
Purpose
The primary goal of this indicator is to assist traders in distinguishing between sustained market movements and short-lived fluctuations. By evaluating how price behaves relative to its moving averages, and by measuring consecutive streaks above or below these averages, the indicator highlights areas where trends are likely to continue or lose momentum.
Overview
Uptrick: Time Based Reversion calculates one or more moving averages of price data and then tracks the number of consecutive bars (streaks) above or below these averages. This streak-based detection provides insight into whether a trend is gaining strength or nearing a potential reversal point. The indicator offers:
• Multiple moving average types (SMA, EMA, WMA)
• Optional second and third moving average layers for additional smoothing of first moving average
• A streak detection system to quantify trend intensity
• A dynamic color scheme that changes with streak strength
• Optional buy and sell signals for potential trade entries and exits
• A ribbon mode that applies moving averages to Open, High, Low, and Close prices for a more detailed visualization of overall trend alignment
Originality and Uniqueness
Unlike traditional moving average indicators, Uptrick: Time Based Reversion incorporates a streak measurement system to detect trend strength. This approach helps clarify whether a price movement is merely a quick fluctuation or part of a longer-lasting trend. Additionally, the optional ribbon mode extends this logic to Open, High, Low, and Close prices, creating a layered and intuitive visualization that shows complete trend alignment.
Inputs and Features
1. Enable Ribbon Mode
This input lets you activate or deactivate the ribbon display of multiple moving averages. When enabled, the script plots moving averages for the Open, High, Low, and Close prices and uses color fills to show whether these four data points are collectively above or below their respective moving averages.
2. Color Scheme Selection
Users can choose from several predefined color schemes, such as Default, Emerald, Crimson, Sapphire, Gold, Purple, Teal, Orange, Gray, Lime, or Aqua. Each scheme assigns distinct bullish, bearish and neutral colors..
3. Show Buy/Sell Signals
The indicator can display buy or sell signals based on its streak analysis logic. These signals appear as markers on the chart, indicating a “Safe Uptrend” (buy) or “Safe Downtrend” (sell).
4. Moving Average Types and Lengths
• First MA Type and Length: Choose SMA, EMA, or WMA along with a customizable period.
• Second and Third MA Types and Lengths: You can optionally stack additional moving averages for further smoothing, each with its own customizable type and period.
5. Streak Threshold Multiplier
This numeric input determines how strong a streak must be before the script considers it a “safe” trend. A higher multiplier requires a longer or more intense streak for a buy or sell signal.
6. Dynamic Transparency Calculation
The color intensity adapts to the streak’s strength. Longer streaks increase the transparency of the opposing color, making the current dominant color stand out. This feature ensures that a vigorous uptrend or downtrend is visually distinct from short-lived or weaker moves.
7. Ribbon Moving Averages
In ribbon mode, the script calculates moving averages for the Open, High, Low, and Close prices. Each of these is optionally smoothed again if the second and/or third moving average layers are active. The final result is a ribbon of moving averages that helps confirm whether the market is uniformly aligned above or below these key reference points.
Calculation Methodology
1. Initial Moving Average
The script calculates the first moving average (SMA, EMA, or WMA) of the closing price over a user-defined period.
2. Optional Secondary and Tertiary Averages
If selected, the script then applies a second and/or third smoothing step. Each of these steps can be a different type of moving average (SMA, EMA, or WMA) with its own period length.
3. Streak Detection
The indicator counts consecutive bars above or below the smoothed moving average. A running total (streakUp or streakDown) increments with every bar that remains above or below that average.
4. Reversion Intensity
The script compares the current streak value to its own average (calculated over the final chosen period). This ratio determines whether the streak is nearing a likely reversion or is strong enough to continue.
5. Color Assignment and Signals
The indicator calculates color transparency based on streak intensity. Buy and sell signals appear when the streak meets or exceeds the threshold multiplier, indicating a safe uptrend or downtrend.
Color Schemes and Visualization
This indicator offers multiple predefined color sets. Each scheme specifies a unique bullish color, bearish color and neutral color. The script automatically varies transparency to highlight strong trends and fade weaker ones, making it visually clear when a trend is intensifying or losing momentum.
Smoothing Techniques
By allowing up to three layers of moving average smoothing, the indicator accommodates different trading styles. A single layer provides faster reactions to market changes, while more layers reduce noise at the cost of slower responsiveness. Traders can choose the right balance between responsiveness and stability for their strategy, whether it is short-term scalping or long-term trend following.
Why It Combines Specific Smoothing Techniques
The Uptrick: Time Based Reversion indicator strategically combines specific smoothing techniques—SMA, EMA, and WMA—to leverage their complementary strengths. The SMA provides stable and consistent trend identification by equally weighting all data points, while the EMA emphasizes recent price movements, allowing quicker responses to market changes. WMA enhances sensitivity to recent price shifts, which helps in detecting subtle momentum changes early. By integrating these methods in layers, the indicator effectively balances responsiveness with stability, helping traders clearly identify genuine trend changes while filtering out short-term noise and false signals.
Ribbon Mode
If Open, High, Low, and Close prices remain above or below their respective moving averages consistently, the script colors the bars fully bullish or bearish. When the data points are mixed, a neutral color is applied. This mode provides a thorough perspective on whether the entire price range is aligned in one direction or showing conflicting signals.
Summary
Uptrick: Time Based Reversion combines multiple moving averages, streak detection, and dynamic color adjustments to help traders identify significant trends and potential reversal areas. Its flexibility allows it to be used either in a simpler form, with one moving average and streak analysis, or in a more advanced configuration with ribbon mode that charts multiple smoothed averages for a deeper understanding of price alignment. By adapting color intensities based on streak strength and providing optional buy/sell signals, this indicator delivers a clear and flexible tool suited to various trading strategies.
Disclaimer
This indicator is designed as an analysis aid and does not guarantee profitable trades. Past performance does not indicate future success, and market conditions can change unexpectedly. Users are advised to employ proper risk management and thoroughly evaluate trades before taking positions. Use this indicator as part of a broader strategy, not as a sole decision-making tool.
Overextension Oscillator [by DanielM]The Overextension Oscillator is an indicator that detects when a market move has extended significantly beyond its typical range, signaling potential areas for a correction or reversal. Unlike traditional oscillators that rely on fixed overbought/oversold levels, this tool dynamically adjusts its thresholds based on historical swing high and swing low movements.
By analyzing all swing points on the chart, the indicator determines the expected range of price movements and identifies when the price extends beyond normal levels. Since every asset has different price behavior and volatility, swing lengths may vary from asset to asset, ensuring that overextension is measured relative to each market's historical price behavior.
How It Works
1️⃣ Swing Detection & Data Collection
The indicator scans all available swing highs and swing lows on the chart to gather a complete dataset of past price fluctuations.
It records the percentage differences between swings to determine how much price typically moves in a given market.
2️⃣ Overextension Calculation
Using the stored swing data, the indicator calculates:
Average Swing Difference – Measures the average percentage difference between swings.
Average Move Percentage – Determines the typical magnitude of price moves within a trend cycle.
These values are used to create dynamic overextension thresholds that adjust based on historical data.
3️⃣ Price Distance & Overextension Measurement
The indicator calculates the distance between the current price and the closest historical swing point. If this distance exceeds the predefined threshold based on past swings, the move is considered overextended. The greater the deviation, the higher the probability of a pullback or short-term reversal.
4️⃣ Buy/Sell Signal Generation
A Buy signal is generated when the price has dropped below an overextended threshold relative to a past swing low.
A Sell signal is generated when the price has risen beyond an overextended threshold relative to a past swing high.
These signals indicate that the price has reached a level where it historically tends to slow down or reverse.
Moving Average Pullback Signals [UAlgo]The "Moving Average Pullback Signals " indicator is designed to identify potential trend continuation or reversal points based on moving average (MA) pullback patterns. This tool combines multiple types of moving averages, customized trend validation parameters, and candlestick wick patterns to provide reliable buy and sell signals. By leveraging several advanced MA methods (such as TEMA, DEMA, ZLSMA, and McGinley-D), this script can adapt to different market conditions, providing traders with flexibility and more precise trend-based entries and exits. The addition of a gradient color-coded moving average line and wick validation logic enables traders to visualize market sentiment and trend strength dynamically.
🔶 Key Features
Multiple Moving Average (MA) Calculation Methods: This indicator offers various MA calculation types, including SMA, EMA, DEMA, TEMA, ZLSMA, and McGinley-D, allowing traders to select the MA that best fits their strategy.
Trend Validation and Pattern Recognition: The indicator includes a customizable trend validation length, ensuring that the trend is consistent before buy/sell signals are generated. The "Trend Pattern Mode" setting provides flexibility between "No Trend in Progress," "Trend Continuation," and "Both," tailoring signals to the trader’s preferred style.
Wick Validation Logic: To enhance the accuracy of entries, this indicator identifies specific wick patterns for bullish or bearish pullbacks, which signal potential trend continuation or reversal. Wick length and validation factor are adjustable to suit various market conditions and timeframes.
Gradient Color-coded MA Line: This feature provides a quick visual cue for trend strength, with color changes reflecting relative highs and lows of the MA, enhancing market sentiment interpretation.
Alerts for Buy and Sell Signals: Alerts are triggered when either a bullish or bearish pullback is detected, allowing traders to receive instant notifications without continuously monitoring the chart.

Advanced VWAP [CryptoSea]The Advanced VWAP is a comprehensive volume-weighted average price (VWAP) tool designed to provide traders with a deeper understanding of market trends through multi-layered VWAP analysis. This indicator is ideal for those who want to track price movements in relation to VWAP bands and detect key market levels with greater precision.
Key Features
Multi-Timeframe VWAP Bands: Includes multiple VWAP bands with different lookback periods (5, 10, 25, and 50), allowing traders to observe short-term and long-term price behavior.
Smoothed Band Options: Offers optional smoothing of VWAP bands to reduce noise and highlight significant trends more clearly.
Dynamic Median Line Display: Plots the median line of the VWAP bands, providing a reference for price movements and potential reversal zones.
VWAP Trend Strength Calculation: Measures the strength of the trend based on the price's position relative to the VWAP bands, normalized between -1 and 1 for easier interpretation.
In the example below we can see the VWAP Forecastd Cloud, which consists of multiple layers of VWAP bands with varying lookback periods, creating a dynamic forecast visualization. The cloud structure represents potential future price ranges by projecting VWAP-based bands outward, with darker areas indicating higher density and overlap of the bands, suggesting stronger support or resistance zones. This approach helps traders anticipate price movement and identify areas of potential consolidation or breakout as the price interacts with different layers of the forecast cloud.
How it Works
VWAP Calculation: Utilizes multiple VWAP calculations based on various lookback periods to capture a broad range of price behaviors. The indicator adapts to different market conditions by switching between short-term and long-term VWAP references.
Smoothing Algorithms: Provides the ability to smooth the VWAP bands using different moving average types (SMA, EMA, SMMA, WMA, VWMA) to suit various trading strategies and reduce market noise.
Trend Strength Analysis: Computes the trend strength based on the price's distance from the VWAP bands, with a value range of -1 to 1. This feature helps traders identify the intensity of uptrends and downtrends.
Alert Conditions: Includes alert options for crossing above or below the smoothed median line, as well as touching the smoothed upper or lower bands, providing timely notifications for potential trading opportunities.
This image below illustrates the use of smoothed VWAP bands, which provide a cleaner representation of the price's relationship to the VWAP by reducing market noise. The smoothed bands create a flowing cloud-like structure, making it easier to observe significant trends and potential reversal points. The circles highlight areas where the price interacts with the smoothed bands, indicating potential key levels for trend continuation or reversal. This setup helps traders focus on meaningful movements and filter out minor fluctuations, improving the identification of strategic entry and exit points based on smoother trend signals.
Application
Strategic Entry and Exit Points: Helps traders identify optimal entry and exit points based on the interaction with VWAP bands and trend strength readings.
Trend Confirmation: Assists in confirming trend strength by analyzing price movements relative to the VWAP bands and detecting significant breaks or touches.
Customized Analysis: Supports a wide range of trading styles by offering adjustable smoothing, band settings, and alert conditions to meet specific trading needs.
The Advanced VWAP by is a valuable addition to any trader's toolkit, offering versatile features to navigate different market scenarios with confidence. Whether used for day trading or longer-term analysis, this tool enhances decision-making by providing a robust view of price behavior relative to VWAP levels.
RSI DeviationAn oscillator which de-trends the Relative Strength Index. Rather, it takes a moving average of RSI and plots it's standard deviation from the MA, similar to a Bollinger %B oscillator. This seams to highlight short term peaks and troughs, Indicating oversold and overbought conditions respectively. It is intended to be used with a Dollar Cost Averaging strategy, but may also be useful for Swing Trading, or Scalping on lower timeframes.
When the line on the oscillator line crosses back into the channel, it signals a trade opportunity.
~ Crossing into the band from the bottom, indicates the end of an oversold condition, signaling a potential reversal. This would be a BUY signal.
~ Crossing into the band from the top, indicates the end of an overbought condition, signaling a potential reversal. This would be a SELL signal.
For ease of use, I've made the oscillator highlight the main chart when Overbought/Oversold conditions are occurring, and place fractals upon reversion to the Band. These repaint as they are calculated at close. The earliest trade would occur upon open of the following day.
I have set the default St. Deviation to be 2, but in my testing I have found 1.5 to be quite reliable. By decreasing the St. Deviation you will increase trade frequency, to a point, at the expense of efficiency.

Dark Cloud [TradingFinder] Piercing Line Reversal chart Pattern
🔵 Introduction
"Reversal candlestick patterns" are among the Japanese candlestick patterns considered as alerts for a potential change in the current price trend. It is often assumed that by identifying reversal candlestick patterns, the price trend will definitely change, either from bullish to bearish or from bearish to bullish. However, this claim is not entirely accurate, and a change in price trend does not always mean a reversal.
Nonetheless, the importance of reversal candlestick patterns remains significant. By recognizing these patterns, you can better predict changes in the trend with higher probability and make better trading decisions.
🔵 Dark Cloud
The "Dark Cloud" pattern occurs when, after an upward trend, buyers continue to drive the price up in the first candle. However, in the next candle, with sellers entering and increasing selling pressure, the price starts to decrease compared to the close of the previous candle.
This price decrease is significant enough that in the last candle, the price goes lower than the open of the previous candle, serving as a warning sign for a potential change in price trend.
The fundamental principles for the formation of the "Dark Cloud" pattern include :
1.Two candles consisting of a positive candle (first candle) and a negative candle (second candle) whose main body should be above the halfway point of the first candle's main body but does not completely cover it.
2.The color of the main body of the second candle should be opposite to the color of the main body of the first candle.
Factors affecting the strength of the "Dark Cloud" pattern include :
1.The length of the bodies of both candles, especially the second candle, which increases the strength of the pattern.
2.The gap between the two bodies can also indicate the strength of the pattern.
3.The absence of a lower shadow in the second candle also indicates the strength of the pattern.
4.If the pattern forms in a price resistance range, it has more strength.
🔵 Piercing Line
The "Piercing Line" pattern occurs when, after a downward trend, sellers decrease the price by offering their shares on the first day. However, on the next day, with buyers entering and increasing demand, the price starts to increase compared to the close of the previous day.
This increase is significant enough that in the last candle, the price goes higher than the open of the previous day, serving as a warning sign for a reversal in the price trend. Overall, this pattern is the opposite of the "Dark Cloud" pattern and occurs under a bearish trend.
The fundamental principles for the formation of the "Piercing Line" pattern include :
1.Two candles consisting of a negative candle (first candle) and a positive candle (second candle) whose main body should be above the halfway point of the first candle's main body but does not completely cover it.
2.The color of the main body of the second candle should be opposite to the color of the main body of the first candle.
Factors affecting the strength of the "Piercing Line" pattern include :
1.The length of the bodies of both candles, especially the second candle, which increases the strength of the pattern.
2.The gap between the two bodies can also indicate the strength of the pattern.
3.The absence of an upper shadow in the second candle also indicates the strength of the pattern.
4.If the pattern forms in a price support range, it has more strength.
🔵 How to Use
The "green circle" symbol corresponds to the "Strong Piercing Line" signal, the "blue triangle" symbol corresponds to the "Weak Piercing Line" signal, the "red circle" symbol corresponds to the "Strong Dark Cloud" signal, and the "red triangle" symbol corresponds to the "Weak Dark Cloud" signal.
🔵 Setting
Using the "Show Dark Cloud" and "Show Piercing Line" buttons, you can enable or disable the display of Dark Cloud and Piercing Line.
K's Reversal Indicator IIK’s Reversal Indicator II uses a moving average timing technique to deliver its signals. The method of calculation is as follows:
* Calculate a moving average (by default, a 13-period moving average).
* Calculate the number of times where the market is above its moving average. Whenever that number hits 21, a bearish signal is generated, and whenever that number if zero, a bullish signal is generated.
The indicator signals short-term to mid-term reversals as a mean-reversion move.
Japanese Candlestick Patterns💡 Japanese Candlesticks are a visual representation of price movements in financial markets. They were first developed by Japanese rice traders in the 18th century to analyze the price of rice contracts, and have since been adopted by traders across the world for a wide range of assets.
📌 A candlestick is composed of a rectangular body and two thin lines, known as wicks, that extend from the top and bottom of the body. The body represents the difference between the opening and closing prices of the asset during a specific time period, while the wicks indicate the high and low prices reached during that period.
📌 By using these and other candlestick patterns, traders can identify potential buying and selling opportunities and manage their risk accordingly. However, it's important to note that candlestick patterns should be used in conjunction with other technical and fundamental analysis tools to make well-informed trading decisions.
📌 Candlestick patterns are particularly useful because they are based on price action rather than external factors such as news or economic data. This makes them useful for traders who employ technical analysis, as they can use candlestick patterns to identify potential trading opportunities and manage their risk accordingly.
🚀 Candlesticks can be used to identify market trends, as well as potential buying and selling opportunities. By analyzing the patterns formed by multiple candlesticks, traders can gain insights into the behavior of the market and make informed trading decisions. Overall, Japanese Candlesticks are a powerful tool for technical analysis that can provide valuable insights into financial markets.

[UPRIGHT Trading] Academy of Forex - Scalp Strategy█ OVERVIEW
This is a collaboration of efforts of The Academy of Forex and UPRIGHT Trading .
The Academy of Forex - Scalp Strategy Indicator is a clean & reimagined lower indicator. To enable optimization & potential automation, we re-coded & optimized it at UPRIGHT Trading.
It is based on the one presented on its YT channel.
The idea is for it to be an easy to use - simple indicator - that works not just for confirmation, but also entering and exiting quickly (scalping).
█ CONCEPTS
The idea is that %B (derived from BBs) is able to pick up some pretty significant moves. With that as one of the bases the Inverse Fisher Transform (Ribbon) acts to show some of the movement of the asset highlighting when it at extremes. The RSI highlights are there as another confirmation to help normalize the sometimes too frequent movement of %B.
As expected the indicator often acts as a reversal indicator, but with the optimizations of logic it's able to pick up more than just the reversals and works as a pretty decent Buy/Sell Algorithm.
█ CALCULATIONS
Calculations used included, but not limited to:
- %B - Quantifies the price as a percentage to the Upper and Lower Band of the Popular Bollinger Bands, which were named after their inventor John Bollinger in 1980.
- Inverse Fisher Transform RSI - is a variation of the IFT, created by John Ehlers, the idea is for the IFT to convert Gaussian normal distribution and to take it a step further the RSI version is to just use overbought and oversold placements. This indicator is meant to highlight when price has moved to an extreme and in this process helps to spot turning points.
- Relative Strength Index (RSI) - As most of you know already the RSI is a technical analysis tool invented by J. Welles Wilder, that oscillates and is used to measure the momentum of price changes. It normalizes to index 0-100 with overbought and oversold defined by the user, but often around 70 as overbought and 30 as oversold.
- Pivot/Swing Points - Implemented to show recent Higher-Highs or Lower-Lows, Pivot points are included in the indicator for structure tracking.
- Moving Averages - Moving averages help to get an idea of when price is moving near the norm or outside to extremes.
█ FEATURES
Indicator Features:
-2 Buy/Sell Signals.
-U Signals (UPRIGHT optimized).
-Exit Reminders.
-Alerts allowing Automation of Scalp Strategy.
-H/L Swings.
-Color Customization.
-Clean Mode.
-Inverse Fisher Transform Ribbon.

Akamai Reversal (Repaint's)The indicator is called "Akamai Reversal (Repaint's)" and is designed to be overlaid on the price chart. It uses three exponential moving averages (EMAs) with lengths of 9, 14, and 21 respectively, referred to as Superfast, Fast, and Slow. The indicator generates buy signals when the Superfast EMA is above the Fast EMA, the Fast EMA is above the Slow EMA, and the lowest price in the previous bar is above the Superfast EMA. It generates sell signals when the Superfast EMA is below the Fast EMA, the Fast EMA is below the Slow EMA, and the highest price in the previous bar is below the Superfast EMA. The indicator calculates and tracks bullish and bearish momentum based on the buy and sell signals. It uses a ZigZag indicator to identify price reversals based on either a percentage or absolute amount specified by the user. The indicator calculates the Average True Range (ATR) and uses it to determine the reversal amount. It tracks the state of the price trend (uptrend or downtrend) and identifies high and low points in the trend. The indicator includes options to display bubbles with information such as price changes, price levels, and bar counts associated with trend changes.
Momentum Reversal [AngelAlgo]The Momentum Reversal Indicator is a technical analysis tool used to identify potential reversals and trends in financial markets. It does this by comparing the momentum of a market to its trend. The momentum is calculated by measuring the change in price over a specified time interval set by the "Period" input. The trend is then determined as the simple moving average of the momentum, with the length of the moving average determined by the "Trend length" input. When the momentum deviates significantly from the trend, it is considered a potential reversal signal. The user can choose to receive signals based on either "Contrarian" or "Trend" signals type, and also has the option to smooth the signals using the Hull Moving Average. The indicator is plotted as a histogram with trading signals indicated by triangle shapes (up for buys, down for sells). The histogram is also accompanied by a smoothed line representation of the indicator and dynamic threshold levels.
The color of the histogram bars is green if the momentum is positive, red if it's negative. The histogram can be smoothed using the Hull Moving Average (HMA) if the "Smoothed signals" input is set to true.
The indicator also plots the threshold levels, which are dynamically calculated as the simple moving average (SMA) of the absolute value of the histogram. The threshold levels are plotted as circles on the chart.
The signals are plotted as arrows on the chart, either triangle-up for buy signals, or triangle-down for sell signals. If "Contrarian" signals are selected, a triangle-up will appear when the histogram crosses below the lower threshold, and a triangle-down will appear when it crosses above the upper threshold. If "Trend" signals are selected, a triangle-up will appear when the histogram crosses above the upper threshold, and a triangle-down will appear when it crosses below the lower threshold. Trend signals work for trending markets, Contrarian signals are good for ranging markets.
SETTINGS
Period: This input allows you to set the period for the momentum calculation. The default value is 14.
Trend length: This input allows you to set the length of the trend-following moving average. The default value is 50.
Signals type : This input allows you to choose the type of signals you want to receive. You can choose between "Contrarian" and "Trend" signals. The default value is "Contrarian".
Smoothed signals: This input allows you to choose between the raw or smoothed signals. If set to true, the signals will be based on the smoothed histogram line, otherwise, they will be based on the raw histogram. The default value is true.
Rails v2Centered around a Variable Moving Average (Rail Line). The Variable Moving Average (VMA) is a study that uses an Exponential Moving Average being able to automatically adjust its smoothing factor according to the market volatility.
In addition to the Rail Line or VMA, the indicator makes use of Bollinger Bands in two ways. First, it displays when the Bollinger Bands are in a squeeze and the potential direction of the breakout. The "squeeze" is the central concept of Bollinger Bands. When the bands come close together, constricting the moving average, it is called a squeeze. A squeeze signals a period of low volatility and is considered by traders to be a potential sign of future increased volatility and possible trading opportunities. The Bollinger Bands are also utilized to highlight when price action might reverse. This signals when price closes outside of the bands, quickly reverts and closes within the bands
The indicator makes use of the Hull Moving Average as a method to quickly capture price action moves thanks to its ability to eliminate lag while managing to improve smoothing at the same time.
Finally, the indicator utilizes Volume Point of Control (VPOC) to determine points in price where the highest amount of volume was traded. Unlike the market profile, the indicator will plot the Volume POC per candle. The script will also plot Trapped Volume. This is important as it tends to serve a signal for reversal. The more price moves away from the trapped volume, Long/Short traders might be forced to cover and price could quickly move away from the area.

MATHR3E FLOW DASHBOARD█ OVERVIEW
MATHR3E Flow Dashboard is a market timing tool which aims to anticipate trend reversals and highlight potential low risk entries.
█ CONCEPTS
Disclaimer:
MATHR3E Flow Dashboard indicator is intended for advanced traders and may fit your profile, whether you are a day trader or a long-term investor.
It was originally developed by a renowned market analyst and documented in numerous books. Among them is the author Jason Perl.
It is recommended to have read the trading techniques mentioned in the books covering this indicator beforehand.
How to use:
Fibonacci Flow is a very complex tool, the purpose is not to detail it here but rather to introduce it briefly.
For a complete understanding, it is strongly recommended to read the books mentioned in the disclaimer section.
This indicator has two main components:
1 — The Prelude, which relies on momentum to define price ranges.
From a Price Reversal there must be nine consecutive closes;
each one less/greater than the corresponding close four bars earlier.
Preludes are numbered from 1 to 9. A complete Prelude occurs on bar 9.
It can be: Sharped / Flawed / Ignored / Extended
Cross over parameter can also evaluate the slowdown in a price trend's intensity and qualify the inception of Flow
2 — The Flow, which comes into play once the Prelude is complete.
They are trend based, and look for low-risk opportunities to fade established directional moves.
Flows are counts numbered from 1 to 13. There are 3 of them:
• SEQ: compares the current close with the low/high two bars earlier
• AGG: compares the current low/high with the low/high two bars earlier
• CMB: complex set of comparison with 2 available methods (not detailed here)
To handle the large amount of data to be displayed, they have been distributed over two indicators.
This indicator therefore works in pair with its companion: MATHR3E Flow Extension.
The distribution of the display is as follows:
Current indicator:
• Prelude points
• Markers for Extension preludes (E)
• Prelude Risk lines
• Flow Risk lines
• Prelude Trend Support and resistance
• Dashboard for supervision of ongoing counts
Companion indicator:
• Flow points
• Markers for Flows cancelation (X)
• Exhaustions points for:
• SEQ: up to 13 (Identify trend fading)
• AGG: up to 13 (For higher trading frequency)
• CMB: up to 13 (Identify prospective turning points following an abrupt price movement)
█ FEATURES & BENEFITS
Fibonacci Sequence
The number 13 is part of the Fibonacci sequence which is nature’s numbering system.
Exhaustion points
Potential exhaustion points emerge whenever the individual flows reach Fibonacci number 13.
These points may help traders to identify low-risk buy or sell opportunities.
Risk Lines
Once the trader has selected an entry point, the displayed risk lines should encourage the trader to remain disciplined and apply proper money management.
Position sizing remains the responsibility of the trader.
Available risk lines:
• buy/sell Preludes
• buy/sell Flows
Nested Flows
The indicator can track up to three nested Flows.
Renewing
During the path to reach point number 13, it is very common to trigger other Prelude in the same direction as the previously initiated trend.
MATHR3E Flow will address these potential market renewal with multiples options:
• Prelude range qualifiers
• Renewal Multiplier
Dashboard:
The dashboard makes it easier to monitor multiple buy and sell signals at the same time:
• Prelude: (P from 1 to 9) / Compares the current close with the corresponding close four bars earlier
• SEQ: (S from 1 to 13) / Compares the current close with the low/high two bars earlier
• AGG: (A from 1 to 13) / Compares the current low/high with the low/high two bars earlier
• CMB: (C from 1 to 13) / Requires four conditions to be satisfied simultaneously
Dashboard also provides the possibility to monitor up to 3 levels of flows
Alerts
The indicator also provides programmable alerts whose format can be adapted to be received on Discord servers

Musashi_Fractal_Dimension === Musashi-Fractal-Dimension ===
This tool is part of my research on the fractal nature of the markets and understanding the relation between fractal dimension and chaos theory.
To take full advantage of this indicator, you need to incorporate some principles and concepts:
- Traditional Technical Analysis is linear and Euclidean, which makes very difficult its modeling.
- Linear techniques cannot quantify non-linear behavior
- Is it possible to measure accurately a wave or the surface of a mountain with a simple ruler?
- Fractals quantify what Euclidean Geometry can’t, they measure chaos, as they identify order in apparent randomness.
- Remember: Chaos is order disguised as randomness.
- Chaos is the study of unstable aperiodic behavior in deterministic non-linear dynamic systems
- Order and randomness can coexist, allowing predictability.
- There is a reason why Fractal Dimension was invented, we had no way of measuring fractal-based structures.
- Benoit Mandelbrot used to explain it by asking: How do we measure the coast of Great Britain?
- An easy way of getting the need of a dimension in between is looking at the Koch snowflake.
- Market prices tend to seek natural levels of ranges of balance. These levels can be described as attractors and are determinant.
Fractal Dimension Index ('FDI')
Determines the persistence or anti-persistence of a market.
- A persistent market follows a market trend. An anti-persistent market results in substantial volatility around the trend (with a low r2), and is more vulnerable to price reversals
- An easy way to see this is to think that fractal dimension measures what is in between mainstream dimensions. These are:
- One dimension: a line
- Two dimensions: a square
- Three dimensions: a cube.
--> This will hint you that at certain moment, if the market has a Fractal Dimension of 1.25 (which is low), the market is behaving more “line-like”, while if the market has a high Fractal Dimension, it could be interpreted as “square-like”.
- 'FDI' is trend agnostic, which means that doesn't consider trend. This makes it super useful as gives you clean information about the market without trying to include trend stuff.
Question: If we have a game where you must choose between two options.
1. a horizontal line
2. a vertical line.
Each iteration a Horizontal Line or a Square will appear as continuation of a figure. If it that iteration shows a square and you bet vertical you win, same as if it is horizontal and it is a line.
- Wouldn’t be useful to know that Fractal dimension is 1.8? This will hint square. In the markets you can use 'FD' to filter mean-reversal signals like Bollinger bands, stochastics, Regular RSI divergences, etc.
- Wouldn’t be useful to know that Fractal dimension is 1.2? This will hint Line. In the markets you can use 'FD' to confirm trend following strategies like Moving averages, MACD, Hidden RSI divergences.
Calculation method:
Fractal dimension is obtained from the ‘hurst exponent’.
'FDI' = 2 - 'Hurst Exponent'
Musashi version of the Classic 'OG' Fractal Dimension Index ('FDI')
- By default, you get 3 fast 'FDI's (11,12,13) + 1 Slow 'FDI' (21), their interaction gives useful information.
- Fast 'FDI' cross will give you gray or red dots while Slow 'FDI' cross with the slowest of the fast 'FDI's will give white and orange dots. This are great to early spot trend beginnings or trend ends.
- A baseline (purple) is also provided, this is calculated using a 21 period Bollinger bands with 1.618 'SD', once calculated, you just take midpoint, this is the 'TDI's (Traders Dynamic Index) way. The indicator will print purple dots when Slow 'FDI' and baseline crosses, I see them as Short-Term cycle changes.
- Negative slope 'FDI' means trending asset.
- Positive most of the times hints correction, but if it got overextended it might hint a rocket-shot.
TDI Ranges:
- 'FDI' between 1.0≤ 'FDI' ≤1.4 will confirm trend following continuation signals.
- 'FDI' between 1.6≥ 'FDI' ≥2.0 will confirm reversal signals.
- 'FDI' == 1.5 hints a random unpredictable market.
Fractal Attractors
- As you must know, fractals tend orbit certain spots, this are named Attractors, this happens with any fractal behavior. The market of course also shows them, in form of Support & Resistance, Supply Demand, etc. It’s obvious they are there, but now we understand that they’re not linear, as the market is fractal, so simple trendline might not be the best tool to model this.
- I’ve noticed that when the Musashi version of the 'FDI' indicator start making a cluster of multicolor dots, this end up being an attractor, I tend to draw a rectangle as that area as price tend to come back (I still researching here).
Extra useful stuff
- Momentum / speed: Included by checking RSI Study in the indicator properties. This will add two RSI’s (9 and a 7 periods) plus a baseline calculated same way as explained for 'FDI'. This gives accurate short-term trends. It also includes RSI divergences (regular and hidden), deactivate with a simple check in the RSI section of the properties.
- BBWP (Bollinger Bands with Percentile): Efficient way of visualizing volatility as the percentile of Bollinger bands expansion. This line varies color from Iced blue when low volatility and magma red when high. By default, comes with the High vols deactivated for better view of 'FDI' and RSI while all studies are included. DDWP is trend agnostic, just like 'FDI', which make it very clean at providing information.
- Ultra Slow 'FDI': I noticed that while using BBWP and RSI, the indicator gets overcrowded, so there is the possibility of adding only one 'FDI' + its baseline.
Final Note: I’ve shown you few ways of using this indicator, please backtest before using in real trading. As you know trading is more about risk and trade management than the strategy used. This still a work in progress, I really hope you find value out of it. I use it combination with a tool named “Musashi_Katana” (also found in TradingView).
Best!

CFB-Adaptive Trend Cipher Candles [Loxx]CFB-Adaptive Trend Cipher Candles is a candle coloring indicator that shows both trend and trend exhaustion using Composite Fractal Behavior price trend analysis. To do this, we first calculate the dynamic period outputs from the CFB algorithm and then we injection those period inputs into a correlation function that correlates price input price to the candle index. The closer the correlation is to 1, the lighter the green color until the color turns yellow, sometimes, indicating upward price exhaustion. The closer the correlation is to -1, the lighter the red color until it reaches Fuchsia color indicating downward price exhaustion. Green means uptrend, red means downtrend, yellow means reversal from uptrend to downtrend, fuchsia means reversal from downtrend to uptrend.
What is Composite Fractal Behavior ( CFB )?
All around you mechanisms adjust themselves to their environment. From simple thermostats that react to air temperature to computer chips in modern cars that respond to changes in engine temperature, r.p.m.'s, torque, and throttle position. It was only a matter of time before fast desktop computers applied the mathematics of self-adjustment to systems that trade the financial markets.
Unlike basic systems with fixed formulas, an adaptive system adjusts its own equations. For example, start with a basic channel breakout system that uses the highest closing price of the last N bars as a threshold for detecting breakouts on the up side. An adaptive and improved version of this system would adjust N according to market conditions, such as momentum, price volatility or acceleration.
Since many systems are based directly or indirectly on cycles, another useful measure of market condition is the periodic length of a price chart's dominant cycle, (DC), that cycle with the greatest influence on price action.
The utility of this new DC measure was noted by author Murray Ruggiero in the January '96 issue of Futures Magazine. In it. Mr. Ruggiero used it to adaptive adjust the value of N in a channel breakout system. He then simulated trading 15 years of D-Mark futures in order to compare its performance to a similar system that had a fixed optimal value of N. The adaptive version produced 20% more profit!
This DC index utilized the popular MESA algorithm (a formulation by John Ehlers adapted from Burg's maximum entropy algorithm, MEM). Unfortunately, the DC approach is problematic when the market has no real dominant cycle momentum, because the mathematics will produce a value whether or not one actually exists! Therefore, we developed a proprietary indicator that does not presuppose the presence of market cycles. It's called CFB (Composite Fractal Behavior) and it works well whether or not the market is cyclic.
CFB examines price action for a particular fractal pattern, categorizes them by size, and then outputs a composite fractal size index. This index is smooth, timely and accurate
Essentially, CFB reveals the length of the market's trending action time frame. Long trending activity produces a large CFB index and short choppy action produces a small index value. Investors have found many applications for CFB which involve scaling other existing technical indicators adaptively, on a bar-to-bar basis.

Anchored OBV RSI: "V-RSI" About the Indicator:
V-RSI uses values from the traditional "Relative Strength Index(RSI)" oscillator and the "On Balance Volume(OBV)" indicator and anchors them into an oscillator format. In doing so, we are given a more concrete overview of volume/sentiment data relative to the RSI for analysis of trend strength and decision making.
EXTRAS: BTC MODE => for BTC only.
In BTC MODE, the indicator uses BTC volume data from the following 5 major exchanges: BINANCE, COINBASE, FTX, BITMEX, BITFINEX.
The sum of this data is taken to depict anchored OBV values. This allows for a more accurate representation of Global Volume.
How to use it
The indicator can be used like the normal RSI with the OBV (area in the middle) showing volume sentiment.
<50 is seen as bearish
>50 is seen as bullish
Using this data, it becomes easier to identify unsustainable trends, reversals, divergences
An example of an unsustainable trend and reversal would be if RSI values are overbought ( RSI > 70) yet OBV oscillator remains below 50.
== chances of unsustainable trend reversal are more likely.

RSI Effective Volume Reversal IndicatorAbout The Indicator
I want to start with a few short paragraphs of how this indicator came to be and why it's different than 80% of the indicators on this platform. If you are just interested in how the indicator works, you can skip the story, although I recommend at least skimming through it.
Originally, this indicator was developed to be part of a trend-trading strategy that analyzed the three main components - Price , Volume and Strength . It was broken down to 2 indicators - on-chart and off-chart, similarly to my first premium indicator "Trend Indicator for Directional Trading". Despite the similar concept, the current one is miles ahead in almost any regard.
As most of you know, strategies (especially the really good ones) are fairly more complex to use and navigate. You need to input the parameters for generating and tweaking the indicator, then you need to enter your risk management parameters like stop loss, position size, etc. and finally you need to set the exit criteria, like specified percent target, trial stop or an indicator condition. So, what was supposed to be a simple strategy that anyone can use and make money with, turned out to be a very complex one with over 20 parameters to tweak. I know from experience that when it comes to trading, less is more. This is especially true for the indicators.
As a result, I decided to split the project into two separate strategies - one for trend/directional trading and one for volume and strength (the one you are looking at right now). The problem was that as a standalone strategy it didn't perform all that well. And it shouldn't come as a surprise to anyone who has been trading long enough - divergences are one of the biggest tricksters there are - easy to identify only in hindsight. They are the new-trader's doom. I lost a decent amount of money chasing tops and bottoms through divergences and for that reason it's always been somewhat a goal of mine to create an indicator that can assist in this conquest (call it a personal vendetta). This indicator comes as close as I've ever been to this goal.
Right, but I just said a few lines above that this indicator doesn't work that well for divergences? That's true, but only if you completely automate it and let it buy every bullish and sell every bearish divergence. I have extensively tested it on the securities I actively trade (SPX500, Crude Oil, Gas, Gold, Copper) and with the right settings it does generate positive return (what strategy wouldn't with enough optimization, right?), but I would have made so much more money if I didn't fight the trend.
So, I decided to do something else - convert the strategy back to an indicator and use it for discretional trading in which it assists (not explicitly tell) me in making the decisions. And oh boy, did I hit the sweet spot there! It has been notoriously difficult for most scripts and indicators to identify proper support and resistance levels or at least not nearly as good as the human eye can do. This is especially the case with ascending and descending channels. Seeing how well it worked in helping me open longs and shorts at key levels, I decided to strip it from all unnecessary features and simplify the interface for easier navigation (about 300 lines of code less). This brings me to my next point.
How Does It Work?
The indicator relies on two main components in order to identify reversals - RSI module and Effective Volume module, hence the name RSI Effective Volume Reversal Indicator (not very creative, I know). You select which one you want to display via the dropdown menu. Now let me outline how each one works.
RSI module (top) - similarly to the traditional RSI, it is bound between 0 and 100. Oversold area is marked in green (15-25) and overbought area is marked in red (75-85). You can change those as you please, but I found those to be the perfect spots for identifying potential opportunities. This is where the similarities end. As you've noticed, it's not nearly as choppy as the traditional RSI, just the opposite - it's rather smooth, resembling Heikin-Ashi candles. Further, the way the candle is formed can indicate if we are approaching a top or bottom and if you should be looking for an opportunity to open a trade against the trend. Believe it or not, I've been developing and using this indicator for the past 6 months, so there's a lot to be said about the formation of those candles with clear examples, but I will leave those for the guide book that comes along with each purchase/subscription.
Effective Volume (bottom) - As I already have developed quite an extensive indicator that utilizes the effective volume profile, I just grabbed certain elements from it, simplified it and smoothed it via a new custom-made moving average along with some other minor updates. The results from RSI and Effective Volume may seem quite similar, but they actually reveal slightly different information and can be used to complement each other. In terms of coloring - green gradient above 50 and red gradient below 50.
What To Expect
It's important to understand that technical analysis does not predict prices. I am not claiming this indicator to be the crystal ball that will tell you when to long or short with max leverage. All I am saying is that it's a pretty good tool to help you time your trades, show real exhaustion of trends and reveal when a new direction is forming.
This indicator has been, and most likely will continue to be, work in progress. I've been experimenting with tons of features to make it better for the past 6 months and I finally believe it is stable and beneficial enough in order for you to use it. There's always something more that I would like to add and/or change, but I know that if I continue digging and improving, the indicator would have never seen the light of day. That's why I want to add the critical component to it - you. Through your feedback and recommendations, I believe we can make this indicator truly a masterpiece.
With that being said, I do have some future improvements planned, which I will be releasing on the go. Some are major, like updating it to v.5 and adding new features that are only available to the newest version of PineScript, while others are minor, such as color variations and more one-click customizations.
I hope I managed to portray an objective picture (with reasonable amount of words) of something that I've put a lot of work into, so that you can successfully use and make even more money on the markets. Once again, each purchase/subscription of this indicator comes with a guide in which I go into great detail explaining how to use the indicator, so rest assured that you will be able to take full advantage of it.
