Cross-Asset Risk Appetite IndexCross-Asset Risk Appetite Index (RiskApp) by CWRP combines multiple asset classes into a single risk sentiment signal to help traders and investors detect when the market is in a risk-on or risk-off regime.
It calculates a composite Z-score index based on relative performance between:
SPY / IEF: Equities vs Bonds
HYG / LQD: High Yield vs Investment Grade Credit
CL / GC: Oil vs Gold
VIX / MOVE: Equity vs Bond Market Volatility (inverted)
Each component reflects capital flows toward riskier or safer assets, with dynamic weighting (Equity/Bond: 30%, Credit: 25%, Commodities: 25%, Volatility: 20%) and smoothing applied for a cleaner signal.
How to Read:
Highlighting
Yellow = Risk-On sentiment (market favors risk assets)
Orange = Risk-Off sentiment (flight to safety)
Black Background = Neutral design for emotional detachment
Table
Equity/Bond Z-Score:
Positive (> +1) --> Stocks outperforming bonds --> Risk-On
Negative (< -1) --> Bonds outperforming stocks --> Risk-Off
Credit Spread Z-Score (HYG/LQD):
Positive --> High yield outperforming --> Investors seeking yield
Negative --> Flight to quality --> Credit concerns
Oil/Gold Z-Score:
Positive --> Oil outperforming --> Economic optimism
Negative --> Gold outperforming --> Defensive positioning
Volatility Spread (VIX/MOVE):
Positive --> Equity vol falling relative to bond vol --> Risk stabilizing
Negative --> Equity vol rising --> Caution / Risk-Off
Composite Index:
> +1 --> Strong Risk Appetite
< -1 --> Strong Risk Aversion
Between -1 and +1 --> Neutral regime
Thank you for using the Cross-Asset Risk Appetite Index by CWRP!
I'm open to all critiques and discussion around macro-finance and hope this model adds clarity to your decision-making.

4. **Risk Assessment**: The watermark's ATR display helps gauge current volatility for position sizing
### Trading Logic Flow:
```
Market Structure Break Detected → Fibonacci Levels Drawn → MTF Trend Check → Entry Decision
```
## Unique Algorithmic Approach
### Direction-Aware Fibonacci Calculation:
Unlike standard Fibonacci tools, this script intelligently determines whether to calculate from high-to-low or low-to-high based on the detected market structure direction:
```pine
fibb(v, h, l, ih, il) =>
if il < ih // Bearish: High to Low
diff = h - l
level = h - (diff * v)
else // Bullish: Low to High
diff = h - l
level = l + (diff * v)
```
### Multi-Timeframe Weighted Scoring:
The MTF system uses a sophisticated weighted average approach:
- Each timeframe receives a configurable weight (default: Daily 30%, Weekly 30%, 4H 20%, 65M 20%)
- Each technical indicator within a timeframe receives its own weight
- Final score determines trend classification (Bullish/Neutral/Bearish)
## Practical Applications
### For Swing Traders:
- Use Weekly/Daily MTF confirmation with 0.618-0.786 Fibonacci levels
- Focus on structure breaks on higher timeframes
- Utilize Golden Zone fills for optimal entry areas
### For Day Traders:
- Emphasize 4H/65M timeframes in MTF analysis
- Watch for 0.382-0.5 retracements in trending markets
- Use ATR indicator for stop-loss placement
### For Position Traders:

*Built by Jazzman - A comprehensive trading system designed for serious market analysis and optimal entry identification.*
Diamond Peaks [EdgeTerminal]The Diamond Peaks indicator is a comprehensive technical analysis tool that uses a few mathematical models to identify high-probability trading opportunities. This indicator goes beyond traditional support and resistance identification by incorporating volume analysis, momentum divergences, advanced price action patterns, and market sentiment indicators to generate premium-quality buy and sell signals.
Dynamic Support/Resistance Calculation
The indicator employs an adaptive algorithm that calculates support and resistance levels using a volatility-adjusted lookback period. The base calculation uses ta.highest(length) and ta.lowest(length) functions, where the length parameter is dynamically adjusted using the formula: adjusted_length = base_length * (1 + (volatility_ratio - 1) * volatility_factor). The volatility ratio is computed as current_ATR / average_ATR over a 50-period window, ensuring the lookback period expands during volatile conditions and contracts during calm periods. This mathematical approach prevents the indicator from using fixed periods that may become irrelevant during different market regimes.
Momentum Divergence Detection Algorithm
The divergence detection system uses a mathematical comparison between price series and oscillator values over a specified lookback period. For bullish divergences, the algorithm identifies when recent_low < previous_low while simultaneously indicator_at_recent_low > indicator_at_previous_low. The inverse logic applies to bearish divergences. The system tracks both RSI (calculated using Pine Script's standard ta.rsi() function with Wilder's smoothing) and MACD (using ta.macd() with exponential moving averages). The mathematical rigor ensures that divergences are only flagged when there's a clear mathematical relationship between price momentum and the underlying oscillator momentum, eliminating false signals from minor price fluctuations.
Volume Analysis Mathematical Framework
The volume analysis component uses multiple mathematical transformations to assess market participation. The Cumulative Volume Delta (CVD) is calculated as ∑(buying_volume - selling_volume) where buying_volume occurs when close > open and selling_volume when close < open. The relative volume calculation uses current_volume / ta.sma(volume, period) to normalize current activity against historical averages. Volume Rate of Change employs ta.roc(volume, period) = (current_volume - volume ) / volume * 100 to measure volume acceleration. Large trade detection uses a threshold multiplier against the volume moving average, mathematically identifying institutional activity when relative_volume > threshold_multiplier.
Advanced Price Action Mathematics
The Wyckoff analysis component uses mathematical volume climax detection by comparing current volume against ta.highest(volume, 50) * 0.8, while price compression is measured using (high - low) < ta.atr(20) * 0.5. Liquidity sweep detection employs percentage-based calculations: bullish sweeps occur when low < recent_low * (1 - threshold_percentage/100) followed by close > recent_low. Supply and demand zones are mathematically validated by tracking subsequent price action over a defined period, with zone strength calculated as the count of bars where price respects the zone boundaries. Fair value gaps are identified using ATR-based thresholds: gap_size > ta.atr(14) * 0.5.
Sentiment and Market Regime Mathematics
The sentiment analysis employs a multi-factor mathematical model. The fear/greed index uses volatility normalization: 100 - min(100, stdev(price_changes, period) * scaling_factor). Market regime classification uses EMA crossover mathematics with additional ADX-based trend strength validation. The trend strength calculation implements a modified ADX algorithm: DX = |+DI - -DI| / (+DI + -DI) * 100, then ADX = RMA(DX, period). Bull regime requires short_EMA > long_EMA AND ADX > 25 AND +DI > -DI. The mathematical framework ensures objective regime classification without subjective interpretation.
Confluence Scoring Mathematical Model
The confluence scoring system uses a weighted linear combination: Score = (divergence_component * 0.25) + (volume_component * 0.25) + (price_action_component * 0.25) + (sentiment_component * 0.25) + contextual_bonuses. Each component is normalized to a 0-100 scale using percentile rankings and threshold comparisons. The mathematical model ensures that no single component can dominate the score, while contextual bonuses (regime alignment, volume confirmation, etc.) provide additional mathematical weight when multiple factors align. The final score is bounded using math.min(100, math.max(0, calculated_score)) to maintain mathematical consistency.
Vitality Field Mathematical Implementation
The vitality field uses a multi-factor scoring algorithm that combines trend direction (EMA crossover: trend_score = fast_EMA > slow_EMA ? 1 : -1), momentum (RSI-based: momentum_score = RSI > 50 ? 1 : -1), MACD position (macd_score = MACD_line > 0 ? 1 : -1), and volume confirmation. The final vitality score uses weighted mathematics: vitality_score = (trend * 0.4) + (momentum * 0.3) + (macd * 0.2) + (volume * 0.1). The field boundaries are calculated using ATR-based dynamic ranges: upper_boundary = price_center + (ATR * user_defined_multiplier), with EMA smoothing applied to prevent erratic boundary movements. The gradient effect uses mathematical transparency interpolation across multiple zones.
Signal Generation Mathematical Logic
The signal generation employs boolean algebra with multiple mathematical conditions that must simultaneously evaluate to true. Buy signals require: (confluence_score ≥ threshold) AND (divergence_detected = true) AND (relative_volume > 1.5) AND (volume_ROC > 25%) AND (RSI < 35) AND (trend_strength > minimum_ADX) AND (regime = bullish) AND (cooldown_expired = true) AND (last_signal ≠ buy). The mathematical precision ensures that signals only generate when all quantitative conditions are met, eliminating subjective interpretation. The cooldown mechanism uses bar counting mathematics: bars_since_last_signal = current_bar_index - last_signal_bar_index ≥ cooldown_period. This mathematical framework provides objective, repeatable signal generation that can be backtested and validated statistically.
This mathematical foundation ensures the indicator operates on objective, quantifiable principles rather than subjective interpretation, making it suitable for algorithmic trading and systematic analysis while maintaining transparency in its computational methodology.
* for now, we're planning to keep the source code private as we try to improve the models used here and allow a small group to test them. My goal is to eventually use the multiple models in this indicator as their own free and open source indicators. If you'd like to use this indicator, please send me a message to get access.

Signalgo XSignalgo X
Signalgo X is a sophisticated indicator crafted for traders who demand a disciplined, multi-layered approach to market analysis and trade management. This overview will help you understand its capabilities, logic, and how it can elevate your trading.
Core Concept
Signalgo X is built to:
Scan multiple timeframes simultaneously for price, volume, and volatility patterns.
Filter out unreliable signals during periods of market hype or manipulation.
Automate trade management with dynamic take-profit (TP), stop-loss (SL), and trailing logic.
Deliver actionable, visual signals and alerts for timely, confident decisions.
Inputs & Controls
Preset System Parameters:
News Sensitivity: Determines how responsive the indicator is to price moves.
Hype Filter Strength: Sets how aggressively the system avoids volatile, manipulated, or news-driven periods.
User-Configurable:
Show TP/SL Logic: Turn on/off the display of take-profit and stop-loss levels directly on your chart.
How Signalgo X Works
1. Multi-Timeframe Market Analysis
Signalgo X continuously monitors:
Closing price
Trading volume
Volatility (ATR)
across six distinct timeframes, from 1 hour to 3 months. This layered approach ensures that signals are validated by both short-term momentum and long-term trends.
2. Price, Volume, and Volatility Synthesis
Price Change: The system tracks percentage changes over each timeframe to gauge momentum.
Volume Ratio: By comparing current volume to a moving average, it detects unusual spikes that may signal institutional activity or manipulation.
Volatility: Measures the intensity of price movements relative to average ranges, helping to identify breakout or exhaustion scenarios.
3. Proprietary Anti-Hype Filter
A unique scoring mechanism evaluates:
Volume spikes without corresponding price action
Sudden jumps in volatility
Conflicting signals across timeframes
Social hype proxies (e.g., sharp moves on low volume)
If the market is deemed “hyped,” all trading signals are suppressed and a clear warning is shown, keeping you out of unpredictable conditions.
4. Signal Classification & Mapping
Significant Moves: Only price actions that exceed a sensitivity threshold and are confirmed by volume/volatility are considered.
Bullish/Bearish Signals: Generated for each timeframe.
Signal Strength: Categorized as regular, or strong based on multi-timeframe agreement.
Entry & Exit Strategy
Entry Logic
Long (Buy) Entry: Triggered when bullish signals are detected (of any strength) and no hype is present.
Short (Sell) Entry: Triggered when bearish signals are detected and no hype is present.
Exit & Trade Management
Stop Loss (SL): Placed at a calculated distance from entry, adapting to recent volatility.
Take Profits (TP1, TP2, TP3): Three profit targets, each at a greater reward multiple.
Trailing Stop: After the first take-profit is hit, the stop-loss moves to breakeven and a trailing stop is activated to protect further gains.
Event Tracking: The indicator visually marks when each TP or SL is hit, providing real-time feedback.
Chart Plots: All relevant SL, TP, and trailing stop levels are clearly marked for both long and short trades.
Labels: Entry, exit, and signal strength events are color-coded and visually prominent.
Alerts: Built-in alert conditions allow you to set up TradingView notifications for strong/regular buy/sell signals and hype warnings.
Trading Strategy Application
Multi-Timeframe Confirmation: Only strong signals confirmed by several timeframes are acted upon, reducing false positives.
Volume & Volatility Awareness: The indicator avoids low-quality, “fakeout” signals by requiring confirmation from both price and volume/volatility.
Hype Avoidance: Keeps you out of the market during news-driven or manipulated periods, helping to protect your capital.
Automated Discipline: The TP/SL logic enforces a rules-based exit strategy, helping you lock in profits and limit losses without emotional interference.
Who Should Use Signalgo X?
Signalgo X is ideal for traders who want:

Sentiment Bias Gauge📌 Overview
The Sentiment Bias Gauge (SBG) is a unique overlay-style indicator that visually maps a sentiment value—such as market bullishness or bearishness—onto your price chart. It converts sentiment data (in this case, RSI-based) into a floating line that moves between defined price zones, allowing users to quickly understand the current market mood in the context of price.
⚙️ How It Works
• The indicator uses RSI (Relative Strength Index) as a proxy for market sentiment (0 to 100 scale).
• This sentiment value is then mapped to a vertical price range on your chart using a configurable zone (via top and bottom percent of chart range).
• The line floats up or down within the price chart, reflecting how bullish or bearish the sentiment is.
• It includes background shading to represent the sentiment level:
• 🔴 Red (Bearish): sentiment < 30
• 🟡 Yellow (Neutral): 30 ≤ sentiment ≤ 70
• 🟢 Green (Bullish): sentiment > 70
• A floating label shows the current sentiment score.
🌟 Key Features
• 📈 Overlay-Based Sentiment Line: Plots sentiment as a price-level line, giving intuitive spatial reference.
• 🔧 Configurable Range Placement: Adjust where the sentiment line appears within the chart’s high-low range.
• 🖌️ Color-Coded Background: Visually distinguish bullish, bearish, and neutral conditions.
• 🏷️ Real-Time Sentiment Label: Displays updated sentiment score on the most recent bar.
🧠 How to Use
• Use this indicator alongside your price action or technical strategy to gauge market mood.
• Combine with other sentiment indicators (e.g., fear/greed, delta volume, news sentiment).
• Especially helpful in sideways markets to identify potential shifts in bias before price reacts.
Why This Combination?
• RSI offers a reliable and intuitive proxy for market sentiment.
• Mapping the value directly onto the chart helps avoid constantly looking at a separate panel.
• The customizable chart range lets traders fit sentiment visuals within any market structure.
🎯 Why It’s Worth Using
• Makes sentiment visually accessible directly on the chart.
• Helps detect bullish/bearish bias shifts earlier than traditional indicators.
• A great tool for sentiment-aware discretionary trading or contextual overlays in algo strategies.
Money Flow Pulse💸 In markets where volatility is cheap and structure is noisy, what matters most isn’t just the move — it’s the effort behind it. Money Flow Pulse (MFP) offers a compact, color-coded readout of real-time conviction by scoring volume-weighted price action on a five-tier scale. It doesn’t try to predict reversals or validate trends. Instead, it reveals the quality of the move in progress: is it fading , driving , exhausting , or hollow ?
🎨 MFP draws from the traditional Money Flow Index (MFI), a volume-enhanced momentum oscillator, but transforms it into a modular “pressure readout” that fits seamlessly into any structural overlay. Rather than oscillating between extremes with little interpretive guidance, MFP discretizes the flow into clean, color-coded regimes ranging from strong inflow (+2) to strong outflow (–2). The result is a responsive diagnostic layer that complements, rather than competes with, tools like ATR and/or On-Balance Volume.
5️⃣ MFP uses a normalized MFI value smoothed over 13 periods and classified into a 5-tier readout of Volume-Driven Conviction :
🍆 Exhaustion Inflow — usually a top or blowoff; not strength, but overdrive (+2)
🥝 Active Inflow — supportive of trend continuation (+1)
🍋 Neutral — chop, coil, or fakeouts (0)
🍑 Selling Intent — weakening structure, possible fade setups (-1)
🍆 Exhaustion Outflow — often signals forced selling or accumulation traps (-2)
🎭 These tiers are not arbitrary. Each one is tuned to reflect real capital behavior across timeframes. For instance, while +1 may support continuation, +2 often precedes exhaustion — especially on the lower timeframes. Similarly, a –1 reading during a pullback suggests sell-side pressure is building, but a shift to –2 may mean capitulation is already underway. The difference between the two can define whether a move is tradable continuation or strategic exhaustion .
🌊 The MFI ROC (Rate of Change) feature can be toggled to become a volatility-aware pulse monitor beneath the derived MFI tier. Instead of scoring direction or structure, ROC reveals how fast conviction is changing — not just where it’s headed, but how hard it's accelerating or decaying. It measures the raw Δ between the current and previous MFI values, exposing bursts of energy, fading pressure, or transitional churn .
🎢 Visually, ROC appears as a low-opacity area fill, anchored to a shared lemon-yellow zero line. When the green swell rises, buying pressure is accelerating; when the red drops, flow is actively deteriorating. A subtle bump may signal early interest — while a steep wave hints at an emotional overreaction. The ROC value itself provides numeric insight alongside the raw MFI score. A reading of +3.50 implies strong upside momentum in the flow — often supporting trend ignition. A score of –6.00 suggests rapid deceleration or full exhaustion — often preceding reversals or failed breakouts.
・ MFI shows you where the flow is
・ ROC tells you how it’s behaving
😎 This blend reveals not just structure or intent — but also urgency . And in flow-based trading, urgency often precedes outcome.
🧩 Divergence isn’t delay — it’s disagreement . One of the most revealing features of MFP is how it exposes momentum dissonance — situations where price and flow part ways. These divergences often front-run pivots , traps , or velocity stalls . Unlike RSI-style divergence, which whispers of exhaustion, MFI divergence signals a breakdown in conviction. The structure may extend — but the effort isn’t there.
・ Price ▲ MFI ▼ → Effortless Markup : Often signals distribution or a grind into liquidity. Without rising MFI, the rally lacks true flow participation — a warning of fragility.
・ Price ▼ MFI ▲ → Absorption or Early Accumulation : Price breaks down, but money keeps flowing in — a hidden bid. Watch for MFI tier shifts or ROC bursts to confirm a reversal.
🏄♂️ These moments don’t require signal overlays or setup hunting. MFP narrates the imbalance. When price breaks structure but flow does not — or vice versa — you’re not seeing trend, you’re seeing disagreement, and that's where edge begins.
💤 MFP is especially effective on intraday charts where volume dislocations matter most. On the 1H or 15m chart, it helps distinguish between breakouts with conviction versus those lacking flow. On higher timeframes, its resolution softens — it becomes more of a drift indicator than a trigger device. That’s by design: MFP prioritizes pulse, not position. It’s not the fire, it’s the heat.
📎 Use MFP in confluence with structural overlays to validate price behavior. A ribbon expansion with rising MFP is real. A compression breakout without +1 flow is "fishy". Watch how MFP behaves near key zones like anchored VWAP, MAs or accumulation pivots. When MFP rises into a +2 and fails to sustain, the reversal isn’t just technical — it’s flow-based.
🪟 MFP doesn’t speak loudly, but it never whispers without reason. It’s the pulse check before action — the breath of the move before the breakout. While it stays visually minimal on the chart, the true power is in the often overlooked Data Window, where traders can read and interpret the score in real time. Once internalized, these values give structure-aware traders a framework for conviction, continuation, or caution.
🛜 MFP doesn’t chase momentum — it confirms conviction. And in markets defined by noise, that signal isn’t just helpful — it’s foundational.
Sentiment Master Oscillator[BullByte]
The Sentiment Master Oscillator is a modern market sentiment indicator designed for traders seeking to identify early trend shifts and potential reversals with clarity. This oscillator combines multiple technical tools—RSI, MACD, EMAs, ADX, ATR, and volume filters—to deliver layered signals that help you assess market momentum in a clear and simplified manner.
Key Features:
- Multi-Indicator Approach :
Integrates RSI (with a smoothing function), MACD, and two EMAs to gauge momentum and trend direction. The oscillator also includes ADX and ATR filters to ensure that only markets with sufficient directional strength and volatility generate signals.
- Dynamic Signal Zones :
The oscillator produces a raw value ranging roughly from -3 to +3 (adjustable via a scaling factor). Positive readings suggest bullish conditions, while negative readings indicate bearish trends. Visual zones (Early, Confirmed, Strong) are clearly marked with color-coded horizontal lines to help you interpret the strength of the signal at a glance.
- Adaptive Smoothing :
For those who prefer quicker, more responsive signals (ideal for scalping), an adaptive smoothing option is available. When enabled, it applies a shorter smoothing period to the oscillator; otherwise, a more conservative base period is used.
- Reversal Alerts :
Yellow dots are plotted on the chart to highlight potential reversal points. These alerts are triggered when the oscillator crosses specific thresholds, coupled with volume and ATR conditions, signaling that a top or bottom may be forming.
- Customizable Filters :
- ATR Filter :Ensures that the market's volatility is above a set threshold before signaling.
- ADX Filter :Confirms sufficient trend strength.
- Volume Filter : Requires that trading volume surges above a multiple of its simple moving average, filtering out low-volume noise.
- Clear Signal Messaging :
Based on the combined signals from various indicators, the script categorizes market sentiment into actionable messages such as "Early Buy", "Confirmed Buy", "Strong Buy", "Early Sell", "Confirmed Sell", and "Strong Sell". A "Grey Zone" label is used when the oscillator is near neutral, indicating that no clear trend is present.
How to Use :
1. Entry and Exit Decisions : Use the different signal stages (Early, Confirmed, Strong) as guides for your entries and exits.
2. Trend Confirmation : Rely on the multi-indicator setup for added confirmation of prevailing market conditions before executing trades.
3. Reversal Cues : Pay attention to the reversal dots for potential turning points in the market, which can be used to adjust positions or initiate trades.

The color-coded Fibonacci levels help traders spot retracement zones, while the volume profile confirms strength or weakness in those areas.
Request█ OVERVIEW
This library is a tool for Pine Script™ programmers that consolidates access to a wide range of lesser-known data feeds available on TradingView, including metrics from the FRED database, FINRA short sale volume, open interest, and COT data. The functions in this library simplify requests for these data feeds, making them easier to retrieve and use in custom scripts.
█ CONCEPTS
Federal Reserve Economic Data (FRED)
FRED (Federal Reserve Economic Data) is a comprehensive online database curated by the Federal Reserve Bank of St. Louis. It provides free access to extensive economic and financial data from U.S. and international sources. FRED includes numerous economic indicators such as GDP, inflation, employment, and interest rates. Additionally, it provides financial market data, regional statistics, and international metrics such as exchange rates and trade balances.
Sourced from reputable organizations, including U.S. government agencies, international institutions, and other public and private entities, FRED enables users to analyze over 825,000 time series, download their data in various formats, and integrate their information into analytical tools and programming workflows.
On TradingView, FRED data is available from ticker identifiers with the "FRED:" prefix. Users can search for FRED symbols in the "Symbol Search" window, and Pine scripts can retrieve data for these symbols via `request.*()` function calls.
FINRA Short Sale Volume
FINRA (the Financial Industry Regulatory Authority) is a non-governmental organization that supervises and regulates U.S. broker-dealers and securities professionals. Its primary aim is to protect investors and ensure integrity and transparency in financial markets.
FINRA's Short Sale Volume data provides detailed information about daily short-selling activity across U.S. equity markets. This data tracks the volume of short sales reported to FINRA's trade reporting facilities (TRFs), including shares sold on FINRA-regulated Alternative Trading Systems (ATSs) and over-the-counter (OTC) markets, offering transparent access to short-selling information not typically available from exchanges. This data helps market participants, researchers, and regulators monitor trends in short-selling and gain insights into bearish sentiment, hedging strategies, and potential market manipulation. Investors often use this data alongside other metrics to assess stock performance, liquidity, and overall trading activity.
It is important to note that FINRA's Short Sale Volume data does not consolidate short sale information from public exchanges and excludes trading activity that is not publicly disseminated.
TradingView provides ticker identifiers for requesting Short Sale Volume data with the format "FINRA:_SHORT_VOLUME", where "" is a supported U.S. equities symbol (e.g., "AAPL").
Open Interest (OI)
Open interest is a cornerstone indicator of market activity and sentiment in derivatives markets such as options or futures. In contrast to volume, which measures the number of contracts opened or closed within a period, OI measures the number of outstanding contracts that are not yet settled. This distinction makes OI a more robust indicator of how money flows through derivatives, offering meaningful insights into liquidity, market interest, and trends. Many traders and investors analyze OI alongside volume and price action to gain an enhanced perspective on market dynamics and reinforce trading decisions.
TradingView offers many ticker identifiers for requesting OI data with the format "_OI", where "" represents a derivative instrument's ticker ID (e.g., "COMEX:GC1!").
Commitment of Traders (COT)
Commitment of Traders data provides an informative weekly breakdown of the aggregate positions held by various market participants, including commercial hedgers, non-commercial speculators, and small traders, in the U.S. derivative markets. Tallied and managed by the Commodity Futures Trading Commission (CFTC) , these reports provide traders and analysts with detailed insight into an asset's open interest and help them assess the actions of various market players. COT data is valuable for gaining a deeper understanding of market dynamics, sentiment, trends, and liquidity, which helps traders develop informed trading strategies.
TradingView has numerous ticker identifiers that provide access to time series containing data for various COT metrics. To learn about COT ticker IDs and how they work, see our LibraryCOT publication.
█ USING THE LIBRARY
Common function characteristics
• This library's functions construct ticker IDs with valid formats based on their specified parameters, then use them as the `symbol` argument in request.security() to retrieve data from the specified context.
• Most of these functions automatically select the timeframe of a data request because the data feeds are not available for all timeframes.
• All the functions have two overloads. The first overload of each function uses values with the "simple" qualifier to define the requested context, meaning the context does not change after the first script execution. The second accepts "series" values, meaning it can request data from different contexts across executions.
• The `gaps` parameter in most of these functions specifies whether the returned data is `na` when a new value is unavailable for request. By default, its value is `false`, meaning the call returns the last retrieved data when no new data is available.
• The `repaint` parameter in applicable functions determines whether the request can fetch the latest unconfirmed values from a higher timeframe on realtime bars, which might repaint after the script restarts. If `false`, the function only returns confirmed higher-timeframe values to avoid repainting. The default value is `true`.
`fred()`
The `fred()` function retrieves the most recent value of a specified series from the Federal Reserve Economic Data (FRED) database. With this function, programmers can easily fetch macroeconomic indicators, such as GDP and unemployment rates, and use them directly in their scripts.
How it works
The function's `fredCode` parameter accepts a "string" representing the unique identifier of a specific FRED series. Examples include "GDP" for the "Gross Domestic Product" series and "UNRATE" for the "Unemployment Rate" series. Over 825,000 codes are available. To access codes for available series, search the FRED website .
The function adds the "FRED:" prefix to the specified `fredCode` to construct a valid FRED ticker ID (e.g., "FRED:GDP"), which it uses in request.security() to retrieve the series data.
Example Usage
This line of code requests the latest value from the Gross Domestic Product series and assigns the returned value to a `gdpValue` variable:
float gdpValue = fred("GDP")
`finraShortSaleVolume()`
The `finraShortSaleVolume()` function retrieves EOD data from a FINRA Short Sale Volume series. Programmers can call this function to retrieve short-selling information for equities listed on supported exchanges, namely NASDAQ, NYSE, and NYSE ARCA.
How it works
The `symbol` parameter determines which symbol's short sale volume information is retrieved by the function. If the value is na , the function requests short sale volume data for the chart's symbol. The argument can be the name of the symbol from a supported exchange (e.g., "AAPL") or a ticker ID with an exchange prefix ("NASDAQ:AAPL"). If the `symbol` contains an exchange prefix, it must be one of the following: "NASDAQ", "NYSE", "AMEX", or "BATS".
The function constructs a ticker ID in the format "FINRA:ticker_SHORT_VOLUME", where "ticker" is the symbol name without the exchange prefix (e.g., "AAPL"). It then uses the ticker ID in request.security() to retrieve the available data.
Example Usage
This line of code retrieves short sale volume for the chart's symbol and assigns the result to a `shortVolume` variable:
float shortVolume = finraShortSaleVolume(syminfo.tickerid)
This example requests short sale volume for the "NASDAQ:AAPL" symbol, irrespective of the current chart:
float shortVolume = finraShortSaleVolume("NASDAQ:AAPL")
`openInterestFutures()` and `openInterestCrypto()`
The `openInterestFutures()` function retrieves EOD open interest (OI) data for futures contracts. The `openInterestCrypto()` function provides more granular OI data for cryptocurrency contracts.
How they work
The `openInterestFutures()` function retrieves EOD closing OI information. Its design is focused primarily on retrieving OI data for futures, as only EOD OI data is available for these instruments. If the chart uses an intraday timeframe, the function requests data from the "1D" timeframe. Otherwise, it uses the chart's timeframe.
The `openInterestCrypto()` function retrieves opening, high, low, and closing OI data for a cryptocurrency contract on a specified timeframe. Unlike `openInterest()`, this function can also retrieve granular data from intraday timeframes.
Both functions contain a `symbol` parameter that determines the symbol for which the calls request OI data. The functions construct a valid OI ticker ID from the chosen symbol by appending "_OI" to the end (e.g., "CME:ES1!_OI").
The `openInterestFutures()` function requests and returns a two-element tuple containing the futures instrument's EOD closing OI and a "bool" condition indicating whether OI is rising.
The `openInterestCrypto()` function requests and returns a five-element tuple containing the cryptocurrency contract's opening, high, low, and closing OI, and a "bool" condition indicating whether OI is rising.
Example usage
This code line calls `openInterest()` to retrieve EOD OI and the OI rising condition for a futures symbol on the chart, assigning the values to two variables in a tuple:
= openInterestFutures(syminfo.tickerid)
This line retrieves the EOD OI data for "CME:ES1!", irrespective of the current chart's symbol:
= openInterestFutures("CME:ES1!")
This example uses `openInterestCrypto()` to retrieve OHLC OI data and the OI rising condition for a cryptocurrency contract on the chart, sampled at the chart's timeframe. It assigns the returned values to five variables in a tuple:
= openInterestCrypto(syminfo.tickerid, timeframe.period)
This call retrieves OI OHLC and rising information for "BINANCE:BTCUSDT.P" on the "1D" timeframe:
= openInterestCrypto("BINANCE:BTCUSDT.P", "1D")
`commitmentOfTraders()`
The `commitmentOfTraders()` function retrieves data from the Commitment of Traders (COT) reports published by the Commodity Futures Trading Commission (CFTC). This function significantly simplifies the COT request process, making it easier for programmers to access and utilize the available data.
How It Works
This function's parameters determine different parts of a valid ticker ID for retrieving COT data, offering a streamlined alternative to constructing complex COT ticker IDs manually. The `metricName`, `metricDirection`, and `includeOptions` parameters are required. They specify the name of the reported metric, the direction, and whether it includes information from options contracts.
The function also includes several optional parameters. The `CFTCCode` parameter allows programmers to request data for a specific report code. If unspecified, the function requests data based on the chart symbol's root prefix, base currency, or quoted currency, depending on the `mode` argument. The call can specify the report type ("Legacy", "Disaggregated", or "Financial") and metric type ("All", "Old", or "Other") with the `typeCOT` and `metricType` parameters.
Explore the CFTC website to find valid report codes for specific assets. To find detailed information about the metrics included in the reports and their meanings, see the CFTC's Explanatory Notes .
View the function's documentation below for detailed explanations of its parameters. For in-depth information about COT ticker IDs and more advanced functionality, refer to our previously published COT library .

█ NOTES
• This library uses dynamic requests , allowing dynamic ("series") arguments for the parameters defining the context (ticker ID, timeframe, etc.) of a `request.*()` function call. With this feature, a single `request.*()` call instance can flexibly retrieve data from different feeds across historical executions. Additionally, scripts can use such calls in the local scopes of loops, conditional structures, and even exported library functions, as demonstrated in this script. All scripts coded in Pine Script™ v6 have dynamic requests enabled by default. To learn more about the behaviors and limitations of this feature, see the Dynamic requests section of the Pine Script™ User Manual.
• The library's example code offers a simple demonstration of the exported functions. The script retrieves available data using the function specified by the "Series type" input. The code requests a FRED series or COT (Legacy), FINRA Short Sale Volume, or Open Interest series for the chart's symbol with specific parameters, then plots the retrieved data as a step-line with diamond markers.
Look first. Then leap.

Cryptocurrency SentimentOverview
This script focuses on calculating and visualizing the sentiment difference between LONG positions and SHORT positions for a selected cryptocurrency pair on the Bitfinex exchange. It provides a clean and clear visual representation of the sentiment, helping traders analyze market behavior.
Key Features
Dynamic Symbol Selection:
The script automatically detects the cryptocurrency symbol from the chart (syminfo.basecurrency) and dynamically constructs the LONGS and SHORTS ticker symbols.
Works seamlessly for pairs like BTCUSD, ETHUSD, and others available on Bitfinex.
Sentiment Calculation:
The sentiment difference is calculated as:
Sentiment Difference=−1×(100− SHORTS/LONGS ×100)
LONGS : The total number of long positions.
SHORTS : The total number of short positions.
If SHORTS is 0, the value is safely skipped to avoid division errors.
Color Coding:
The script visually highlights the sentiment difference:
Green Line: Indicates that LONG positions are dominant (bullish sentiment).
Red Line: Indicates that SHORT positions are dominant (bearish sentiment).
Zero Reference Line:
A gray horizontal line at 0 helps users quickly identify the transition between bullish (above zero) and bearish (below zero) sentiment.
How It Works
Fetching Data:
The script uses request.security to fetch LONGS and SHORTS data at the current chart timeframe (timeframe.period) for the dynamically generated Bitfinex tickers.
Handling Data:
Missing or invalid data (NaN) is filtered out to prevent errors.
Extreme spikes or irregular values are safely avoided.
Visualization:
The sentiment difference is plotted with dynamic color coding:
Green when LONGS > SHORTS (bullish sentiment).
Red when SHORTS > LONGS (bearish sentiment).
Benefits
Market Sentiment Insight: Helps traders quickly identify if the market is leaning towards bullish or bearish sentiment based on actual LONG and SHORT position data.
Dynamic and Adaptive: Automatically adjusts to the selected cryptocurrency symbol on the chart.
Clean Visualization: Focuses solely on sentiment difference with color-coded signals, making it easy to interpret.
Best Use Cases
Trend Confirmation: Use the sentiment difference to confirm trends during bullish or bearish moves.
Market Reversals: Identify potential reversals when sentiment shifts from positive (green) to negative (red) or vice versa.
Sentiment Monitoring: Monitor the overall market bias for cryptocurrencies like BTC, ETH, XRP, etc., in real-time.
Sample Chart Output
Above Zero → Green Line: Bullish sentiment dominates.
Below Zero → Red Line: Bearish sentiment dominates.
Zero Line → Transition point for shifts in sentiment.

Volumetric Volatility Breaker Blocks [UAlgo]The "Volumetric Volatility Breaker Blocks " indicator is designed for traders who want a comprehensive understanding of market volatility combined with volume analysis. This indicator provides a clear visualization of significant volatility areas (or blocks), characterized by price movements that exceed a specific volatility threshold, as calculated using the ATR (Average True Range). The concept is enhanced by integrating volume-based insights, offering a view of market activity that helps users to recognize when significant price changes are being supported by an appropriate level of market participation.
The indicator calculates breaker blocks for both bullish and bearish market conditions, providing distinct visual elements that identify periods of high volatility and substantial volume divergence. The focus on both volume and volatility makes this tool versatile, allowing traders to assess the strength of price movements as well as areas where price might break above or below previously established levels.
It supports adjustable parameters, such as volatility length, smoothness factor, and volume display, allowing traders to fine-tune the indicator according to their trading strategy and market environment. The highlighted breaker blocks assist in identifying zones of potential price reversal or continuation, which can be critical for making informed trading decisions.
🔶 Key Features
Volatility-Based Block Identification: The indicator uses the Average True Range (ATR) to determine the volatility of the market. When the ATR exceeds a specified threshold (smooth ATR multiplied by a user-defined multiplier), it highlights these areas as volatility blocks. The idea is to mark periods where price activity is significantly divergent from normal conditions, which often signals market opportunities.
Volume Integrated Analysis: In addition to tracking volatility, the indicator incorporates volume data, allowing traders to see the amount of activity that occurs during these high-volatility periods. This helps in identifying whether a price movement is likely sustainable or whether it lacks market support.
User Adjustable Parameters: The indicator offers customization options for the volatility length (using ATR), smooth length, and multiplier for sensitivity adjustment. These settings enable users to modify the indicator’s responsiveness to market conditions.
The option to display the last few volatility blocks allows traders to manage clutter on their charts and focus only on the most recent significant data.
Mitigation Method: Users can select between different mitigation methods ("Close" or "Wick") to determine how blocks are broken. This adds an extra layer of adaptability, allowing traders to modify the indicator's response based on different price action strategies.
Dynamic Visual Representation: The indicator dynamically draws boxes for volatility blocks and shades them according to market direction, with split areas showing the bullish and bearish strength contributions. It also provides percentage volume for each block, helping traders understand the relative market participation during these moves.
🔶 Interpreting the Indicator
Identifying High Volatility Areas: When a new volatility block appears, it signifies that the market is experiencing higher-than-usual volatility, driven by increased ATR values. Traders should pay attention to these blocks, as they often indicate that a significant price move is occurring. Bullish blocks suggest upward pressure, whereas bearish blocks indicate downward pressure.
Volume Insights: The volume associated with each volatility block provides an insight into how much market participation accompanies these moves. Higher volume within a block implies that the market is actively supporting the price change, which may be a sign of continuation. Low volume suggests that the movement may lack the strength to persist.
Bullish vs. Bearish Strength Analysis: Each block is split into bullish and bearish strength, giving a clearer picture of what’s happening within the volatility period. If the bullish portion dominates, it indicates strong upward sentiment during that period. Conversely, if the bearish side is more prominent, there is more selling pressure. This breakdown helps in understanding intra-block market dynamics.
Volume Percentage Display: The indicator also displays the volume percentage in each block, which provides context for the strength of the move relative to recent market activity. Higher percentages mean more market engagement, which could confirm the legitimacy of a trend or a significant breakout.

Dynamic Sentiment RSI [UAlgo]The Dynamic Sentiment RSI is a technical analysis tool that combines the classic RSI (Relative Strength Index) concept with dynamic sentiment analysis, offering traders enhanced insights into market conditions. Unlike the traditional RSI, this indicator integrates volume weighting, sentiment factors, and smoothing features to provide a more nuanced view of momentum and potential market reversals. It is designed to assist traders in detecting overbought/oversold conditions, momentum shifts, and to generate potential buy or sell signals using crossover and crossunder techniques. By dynamically adjusting based on sentiment and volume factors, this RSI offers better adaptability to varying market conditions, making it suitable for different trading styles and timeframes.
This tool is particularly helpful for traders who wish to explore not only price movement but also the underlying market sentiment, offering a more comprehensive approach to momentum analysis. The sentiment factor amplifies the RSI's sensitivity to price shifts, making it easier to detect early signals of market reversals or the continuation of a trend.
🔶 Key Features
Dynamic Sentiment Calculation: The indicator incorporates a "Sentiment Factor" that adjusts the RSI length dynamically based on a multiplier, helping traders better understand market sentiment at different time intervals.
Volume Weighting: When enabled, the RSI calculations are weighted by volume, allowing traders to give more importance to price movements with higher trading volume, which may provide more accurate signals.
Smoothing Feature: A customizable smoothing period is applied to the RSI to help filter out noise and make the signal smoother. This feature is particularly useful for traders who prefer to focus on long-term trends while minimizing false signals.
Step Size Customization: A "Step Size" input allows users to round the sentiment RSI to predefined intervals, making the results easier to interpret and act upon. This feature allows you to focus on significant sentiment changes and ignore minor fluctuations.
Crossover/Crossunder Alerts: The indicator includes crossover and crossunder signals on the zero-line, helping traders identify potential buy and sell opportunities as the smoothed RSI crosses these levels.
The indicator offers a clear visual display with multiple color-coded lines and areas:
Sentiment RSI: Plotted as an area chart, color-coded based on sentiment strength.
Raw RSI: A purple line representing the raw adjusted RSI.
Smoothed RSI: A dynamic line, color-coded aqua or orange based on its position relative to the zero line.
Buy/Sell Signals: Triangle shapes are plotted at crossovers and crossunders, providing clear entry and exit points.
🔶 Interpreting the Indicator
Sentiment RSI
-This line represents the sentiment-adjusted RSI, where the higher the value, the stronger the bullish sentiment, and the lower the value, the stronger the bearish sentiment. It is rounded to step intervals, making it easier to detect significant shifts in sentiment.
- A positive sentiment RSI (above 0) suggests bullish market conditions, while a negative sentiment RSI (below 0) suggests bearish conditions.
Smoothed RSI
The smoothed RSI helps reduce noise and shows the trend more clearly.
Crossovers of the zero line are significant:
- Crossover above zero: Indicates that bullish momentum is building, potentially signaling a buying opportunity.
- Crossunder below zero: Signals a shift towards bearish momentum, potentially indicating a sell signal.
Traders should look for these crossovers in conjunction with other signals for more accurate entry/exit points.
Raw RSI (Adjusted)
The raw adjusted RSI offers a less smoothed, more responsive version of the RSI. While it may be noisier, it provides early signals of market reversals and trends.
Crossover/Crossunder Signals
- When the smoothed RSI crosses above the zero line, a "Signal Up" triangle appears, indicating a potential buying opportunity.
- When the smoothed RSI crosses below the zero line, a "Signal Down" triangle appears, signaling a potential sell opportunity.
These signals help traders time their entries and exits by identifying momentum shifts.
Volume Weighting (Optional)
- If volume weighting is enabled, the RSI will give more weight to periods of higher trading volume, making the signals more reliable when the market is highly active.
Strong Up/Down Levels (40/-40)
- These dotted lines represent extreme sentiment levels. When the sentiment RSI reaches 40 or -40, the market may be nearing an overbought or oversold condition, respectively. This could be a signal for traders to prepare for potential reversals or shifts in momentum.
By combining the various components of this indicator, traders can gain a comprehensive view of market sentiment and price action, helping them make more informed trading decisions. The combination of sentiment factors, volume weighting, and smoothing makes this indicator highly flexible and suitable for a variety of trading strategies.

Bullish/Bearish Sentiment Cycle Indicator Sentiment Cycle Indicator: Understanding Market Psychology Through Technical Analysis
Overview:
The Sentiment Cycle Indicator is a unique blend of multiple technical analysis tools designed to help traders visualize and capitalize on market sentiment shifts. This indicator combines RSI (Relative Strength Index), MACD (Moving Average Convergence Divergence), volume analysis, and sentiment cycle detection to provide actionable buy and sell signals. By monitoring the emotional stages that market participants go through—such as optimism, excitement, euphoria, anxiety, denial, panic, and depression—this indicator helps traders identify turning points in the market cycle.
Key Components and How They Work Together:
1. RSI (Relative Strength Index):
• The RSI is a momentum oscillator that measures the speed and change of price movements. In this indicator, the RSI is used to determine overbought or oversold conditions, which are then translated into signals for potential market sentiment shifts.
• Integration: The RSI provides the foundational layer to assess whether the market is generally bullish or bearish. When combined with MACD and volume analysis, it helps confirm the strength of a sentiment cycle phase.
2. MACD (Moving Average Convergence Divergence):
• MACD is a trend-following indicator that shows the relationship between two moving averages of a security’s price. It is used in this script to identify trend direction and momentum changes.
• Integration: MACD crossovers are aligned with RSI conditions to detect the shift between bullish and bearish market sentiments. The MACD’s ability to capture trend changes strengthens the identification of sentiment phases, such as “optimism” or “panic.”
3. Volume Analysis:
• Volume analysis is a critical component in understanding market sentiment. The indicator uses a moving average of volume to detect volume spikes, which often coincide with significant market moves or reversals.
• Integration: Volume spikes are used to gauge the intensity of sentiment changes. For example, high volume during a bullish or bearish sentiment phase is a strong confirmation of a market sentiment shift. This integration enhances the reliability of the buy and sell signals generated by the sentiment cycle logic.
4. Sentiment Cycles:
• The indicator identifies four main sentiment phases—Optimism, Excitement, Panic, and Depression—based on combinations of RSI, MACD, and volume data. These phases are visually represented on the chart through background color zones, allowing traders to see the prevailing market sentiment at a glance.
• Integration: The sentiment phases are determined by a combination of the RSI trend, MACD crossovers, and volume analysis. For example, a transition from “Panic” to “Optimism” is detected when the RSI recovers from oversold levels, MACD turns bullish, and volume spikes decrease. This comprehensive approach ensures that all signals are well-founded and based on multiple dimensions of market data.
5. Buy and Sell Signals:
• The buy and sell signals are generated based on crossovers and crossunders between sentiment phases. For example, a buy signal is triggered when the market moves from a “Depression” (oversold) phase to an “Optimism” phase. A sell signal is triggered when the market transitions from “Excitement” to “Panic.”
• Integration: These signals are refined by adding a minimum distance between consecutive signals to avoid noise and enhance the clarity of trading opportunities. This further ensures that signals are not generated too frequently, reducing the chance of false positives.
Justification for Combining These Components:
The combination of RSI, MACD, volume analysis, and sentiment detection into a single indicator offers a holistic approach to understanding market psychology. Here’s why this mashup is particularly effective:
• Comprehensive Sentiment Analysis: The integration of RSI and MACD provides a well-rounded view of both momentum and trend, while volume analysis adds a layer of intensity to confirm sentiment shifts.
• Reduced Noise and Enhanced Signal Quality: By using multiple indicators to filter signals, the indicator minimizes noise and reduces the likelihood of false signals. This is particularly beneficial for traders looking to capitalize on meaningful market turns rather than being whipsawed by minor fluctuations.
• Visual Clarity: The background color zones corresponding to different sentiment phases offer a clear, at-a-glance view of the market’s current state, allowing traders to make more informed decisions quickly.
• Unique Combination for Market Sentiment Detection: While many indicators focus on either trend, momentum, or volume independently, this mashup uniquely combines these elements to detect the market’s underlying emotional state, providing a more nuanced understanding of market behavior.
How to Use This Indicator:
• Buy Signal: Look for the green “Buy” label when the market transitions from a bearish sentiment (grey or red zones) to a bullish sentiment (green zone).
• Sell Signal: Look for the red “Sell” label when the market transitions from a bullish sentiment (blue zone) to a bearish sentiment (red or gray zones).
• Dynamic Background Zones: Use the background color zones to visually track the prevailing market sentiment phase and anticipate potential buy or sell signals.
Originality and Practical Application:
This indicator’s originality lies in its ability to seamlessly integrate multiple widely-used technical analysis tools (RSI, MACD, and Volume) into a single, comprehensive tool for detecting market sentiment shifts. By doing so, it provides traders with a practical, easy-to-use tool that adapts to various market conditions, making it suitable for both day trading and longer-term strategies.
Conclusion:
The “Sentiment Cycle Indicator” is designed to offer traders a powerful, unified approach to identifying market sentiment shifts. By combining momentum, trend, and volume analysis, it delivers a unique and efficient way to navigate the complexities of market psychology, ultimately providing traders with an edge in understanding and predicting market movements.
