Cup & Handle Post-Breakout Correction FinderWhat This Script Tries to Do (Simple Summary)
Finds a Specific Setup: It looks for stocks that might be getting ready to move up again after a specific sequence:
A big "Cup & Handle" breakout happened 1-3 years ago.
The stock then pulled back (corrected) for at least a few months (~4 months by default) without crashing too hard (less than 35% drop by default).
The main weekly moving averages are now tightly bunched together (suggesting a pause or "squeeze").
The price just crossed above its 200-day moving average (a potential positive sign).
The price hasn't already broken above the high point of the recent pullback.
The Signal: If all these conditions are met, it places a small, bright green circle below the price bar on your chart.
Reference Line: It also shows the 200-period moving average (usually the 200-week, as this script is best on Weekly charts) as a red line.
Best Way to Use It (Simple Guide)
Use on Daily or Weekly Charts: The script's settings (like pullback in weeks) make it more suitable for the Weekly timeframe.
Look for the Green Circle: This is the main signal that the script found a potential setup matching all its rules.
Don't Trade Blindly! The green circle is just an alert, not a guaranteed buy signal. It means "This stock might fit the pattern, check it out!".
Confirm with Your Eyes & Other Tools:
Does the chart look like the pattern the script is searching for (past breakout, recent pullback, current tightening)?
Switch to the Daily chart to see how the cross above the 200-day EMA looks. Is it clean?
Check the volume. Is buying interest picking up as the signal appears? (Good sign).
Consider the overall market trend. Is it a good time to be buying stocks?
Customize (Optional): You can adjust the settings (gear icon ⚙️) to make the rules stricter or looser (e.g., change the pullback duration, allowed drop percentage, EMA tightness).
Manage Risk: If you decide to trade based on this signal (after confirming it), always know where you'll place your stop-loss in case the pattern fails.

🔷 How to Use Squeeze Momentum Pro
🔍 Identifying Trends
Squeeze Momentum Pro supports two different methods for identifying the trend visually, each based on a distinct logic:
Squeeze Momentum Trend (LazyBear-style):
Displays 3 states based on the position of the Bollinger Bands relative to the Keltner Channel:
🔵 Blue = No Squeeze (BB outside KC and KC outside BB)
⚪️ White = Squeeze Active (BB fully inside KC)
⚫️ Gray = Neutral state (none of the above)
TTM Squeeze Trend (John Carter-style):
Calculates the difference in width between the Bollinger Bands and the Keltner Channel:
🟩 Green = BB width is greater than KC → potential expansion phase
🟥 Red = BB are tighter than KC → possible compression or pre-breakout
📈 Interpreting Signals
Depending on the active configuration, the indicator can provide various signals, including:
Trend color → Reflects the current compression/expansion state (based on selected mode)
Momentum value (above or below 0) → May indicate directional pressure
Signal Line cross → Can highlight momentum shifts
Color change in the momentum → May suggest a potential trend reversal
🛠 Integration with Other Tools
Squeeze Momentum Pro works well alongside other indicators to strengthen market context:
✅ Volume Profile / OBV – Helps confirm accumulation or distribution during squeezes
✅ RSI – Useful to detect divergence between momentum and price
✅ Moving Averages – Ideal for defining primary trend direction and filtering signals

HILo Ema Squeeze BandsThis indicator combines uses ema to identify price squeeze before a big move.
The ema gets initialised at new high low. It used 3 ema's lengths. For result use x, 2x ,4x ie 50, 100, 200 or 100,200,400 and so on . On more volatile asset use a higher settings like 100,200,400. The inner band is divided into 4 zones, which can give support resistance. As you use it you will become aware of subtle information that it can give at times. Like you may be able to find steps at which prices move, when the market is trending
Just like in Bollinger bands, in a trending market the price stays within sd=1 and sd=2 so does in the inner band the price will remain in band1 and band2. But Bollinger band cannot print steps this indicator shows steps
Squeeze Momentum Indicator Strategy [LazyBear + PineIndicators]The Squeeze Momentum Indicator Strategy (SQZMOM_LB Strategy) is an automated trading strategy based on the Squeeze Momentum Indicator developed by LazyBear, which itself is a modification of John Carter's "TTM Squeeze" concept from his book Mastering the Trade (Chapter 11). This strategy is designed to identify low-volatility phases in the market, which often precede explosive price movements, and to enter trades in the direction of the prevailing momentum.
Concept & Indicator Breakdown
The strategy employs a combination of Bollinger Bands (BB) and Keltner Channels (KC) to detect market squeezes:
Squeeze Condition:
When Bollinger Bands are inside the Keltner Channels (Black Crosses), volatility is low, signaling a potential upcoming price breakout.
When Bollinger Bands move outside Keltner Channels (Gray Crosses), the squeeze is released, indicating an expansion in volatility.
Momentum Calculation:
A linear regression-based momentum value is used instead of traditional momentum indicators.
The momentum histogram is color-coded to show strength and direction:
Lime/Green: Increasing bullish momentum
Red/Maroon: Increasing bearish momentum
Signal Colors:
Black: Market is in a squeeze (low volatility).
Gray: Squeeze is released, and volatility is expanding.
Blue: No squeeze condition is present.
Strategy Logic
The script uses historical volatility conditions and momentum trends to generate buy/sell signals and manage positions.
1. Entry Conditions
Long Position (Buy)
The squeeze just released (Gray Cross after Black Cross).
The momentum value is increasing and positive.
The momentum is at a local low compared to the past 100 bars.
The price is above the 100-period EMA.
The closing price is higher than the previous close.
Short Position (Sell)
The squeeze just released (Gray Cross after Black Cross).
The momentum value is decreasing and negative.
The momentum is at a local high compared to the past 100 bars.
The price is below the 100-period EMA.
The closing price is lower than the previous close.
2. Exit Conditions
Long Exit:
The momentum value starts decreasing (momentum lower than previous bar).
Short Exit:
The momentum value starts increasing (momentum higher than previous bar).
Position Sizing
Position size is dynamically adjusted based on 8% of strategy equity, divided by the current closing price, ensuring risk-adjusted trade sizes.
How to Use This Strategy
Apply on Suitable Markets:
Best for stocks, indices, and forex pairs with momentum-driven price action.
Works on multiple timeframes but is most effective on higher timeframes (1H, 4H, Daily).
Confirm Entries with Additional Indicators:
The author recommends ADX or WaveTrend to refine entries and avoid false signals.
Risk Management:
Since the strategy dynamically sizes positions, it's advised to use stop-losses or risk-based exits to avoid excessive drawdowns.
Final Thoughts
The Squeeze Momentum Indicator Strategy provides a systematic approach to trading volatility expansions, leveraging the classic TTM Squeeze principles with a unique linear regression-based momentum calculation. Originally inspired by John Carter’s method, LazyBear's version and this strategy offer a refined, adaptable tool for traders looking to capitalize on market momentum shifts.

💻 Technical Code Breakdown
1. Core Calculations
// Base calculations for EMAs
ema_1 = ta.ema(close, ema_length_1)
ema_2 = ta.ema(close, ema_length_2)
ema_3 = ta.ema(close, ema_length_3)
ema_4 = ta.ema(close, ema_length_4)
// Proximity calculation for entry validation
ema_prox_raw = math.abs(close - ema_1) / ema_1 * 100
is_close_to_ema_long = close > ema_1 and ema_prox_raw <= prox_percent
```
### 2. Squeeze Detection System
```pine
// Bollinger Bands setup
BB_basis = ta.sma(close, length)
BB_dev = ta.stdev(close, length)
BB_upper = BB_basis + BB_mult * BB_dev
BB_lower = BB_basis - BB_mult * BB_dev
// Keltner Channels setup
KC_basis = ta.sma(close, length)
KC_range = ta.sma(ta.tr, length)
KC_upper_high = KC_basis + KC_range * KC_mult_high
KC_lower_high = KC_basis - KC_range * KC_mult_high
```
### 3. Scoring System Implementation
```pine
// Band Convergence Score
band_ratio = BB_width / KC_width
convergence_score = math.max(0, 40 * (1 - band_ratio))
// Price Position Score
price_range = math.abs(close - KC_basis) / (KC_upper_low - KC_lower_low)
position_score = 20 * (1 - price_range)
// Final Score Calculation
squeeze_score = convergence_score + position_score + vol_score + mom_score
```

Composite Z-Score with Linear Regression Bands [UAlgo]The Composite Z-Score with Linear Regression Bands is a technical indicator designed to provide traders with a comprehensive analysis of price momentum, volatility, and volume. By combining multiple moving averages with slope analysis, volume/volatility compression-expansion metrics, and Z-Score calculations, this indicator aims to highlight potential breakout and breakdown points with high accuracy. The inclusion of linear regression bands further enhances the analysis by providing dynamic support and resistance levels, which adapt to market conditions. This makes the indicator particularly useful in identifying overbought/oversold conditions, volume squeezes, and the overall direction of the trend.
🔶 Key Features
Multi-Length Slope Calculation: The indicator uses multiple Hull Moving Averages (HMA) across various lengths to calculate slope angles, which are then converted into Z-Scores. This helps in capturing both short-term and long-term price momentum.
Volume/Volatility Composite Analysis: By calculating a composite value derived from both volume and volatility, the indicator identifies periods of compression (squeezes) and expansion, which are crucial for detecting potential breakout opportunities.
Linear Regression Bands: The inclusion of dynamic linear regression bands provides traders with adaptive support and resistance levels. These bands are enhanced by the composite value, which adjusts the band width based on market conditions, offering a clearer view of possible price reversals.
Overbought/Oversold Detection: The indicator highlights overbought and oversold conditions by comparing Z-Scores against the upper and lower bounds of the regression bands, which can signal potential reversal points.
Customizable Inputs: Users can customize key parameters such as the lengths of the moving averages, the regression band period, and the number of deviations used for the bands, allowing for flexibility in adapting the indicator to different market environments.
🔶 Interpreting the Indicator
Z-Score Plots: The individual Z-Score plots represent the normalized slope of the Hull Moving Averages over different periods. Positive values indicate upward momentum, while negative values suggest downward momentum. The combined Z-Sum provides a broader view of the overall market momentum.
Composite Value: The composite value is a ratio of volume to volatility, which highlights periods of market compression and expansion. When the composite value rises, it suggests increasing market activity, often preceding a breakout.
Why are we calculating values for multiple lengths?
The Composite Z-Score with Linear Regression Bands indicator employs a multi-timeframe analysis by calculating Z-scores for various moving average lengths. This approach provides a more comprehensive view of market dynamics and helps to identify trends and potential reversals across different timeframes. By considering multiple lengths, we can:
Capture a broader range of market behaviors: Different moving average lengths capture different aspects of price movement. Shorter lengths are more sensitive to recent price changes, while longer lengths provide a smoother representation of the underlying trend.
Reduce the impact of noise: By combining Z-scores from multiple lengths, we can help to filter out some of the noise that can be present in shorter-term data and obtain a more robust signal.
Enhance the reliability of signals: When Z-scores from multiple lengths align, it can increase the confidence in the identified trend or potential reversal. This can help to reduce the likelihood of false signals.
In essence, calculating values for multiple lengths allows the indicator to provide a more nuanced and reliable assessment of market conditions, making it a valuable tool for traders and analysts.
Linear Regression Bands: The central line represents the linear regression of the Z-Sum, while the upper and lower bands represent the dynamic resistance and support levels, respectively. The deviation from the regression line indicates the strength of the current trend. When price moves beyond these bands, it may signal an overbought (above upper band) or oversold (below lower band) condition.
Volume/Volatility Squeeze: When the price moves between the regression bands and the volume/volatility-adjusted bands, the market is in a squeeze. Breakouts from this squeeze can lead to significant price moves, which are indicated by the filling of areas between the Z-Score plots and the bands.
Color Interpretation: The indicator uses color changes to make it easier to interpret the data. Teal colors generally indicate upward momentum or strong conditions, while red suggests downward momentum or weakening conditions. The intensity of the color reflects the strength of the signal.
Overbought/Oversold Signals: The indicator marks potential overbought and oversold conditions when Z-Scores cross above or below the upper and lower regression bands, respectively. These signals are crucial for identifying potential reversal points in the market.

The Squeeze Momentum Oscillator by AlgoAlpha synergistically combines the principles of momentum tracking and market squeeze detection. By integrating the core logic of the Squeeze & Release indicator, it calculates the Squeeze Value (SV) through a comparison of the Exponential Moving Average (EMA) of the Average True Range (ATR) against the high-low price EMA. This SV is further analyzed alongside its EMA to pinpoint squeeze conditions, indicative of potential market breakouts or consolidations. In addition to this, the oscillator employs Hyper Squeeze Detection for identifying extremely low volatility. The momentum aspect of the oscillator evaluates the price movement relative to EMAs of significant highs and lows, refining these observations with a z-score normalization for short-term momentum insights. Moreover, the incorporation of divergence detection aids in identifying potential reversals, making this oscillator a comprehensive tool for traders looking to harness the power of volatility and momentum in their market analysis. The combination of the Squeeze & Release and the Momentum Oscillator allows traders to time their trades with more precision by entering when the market is in a squeeze and front running the volatility of a major move.

The "Squeeze Momentum TD" is our unique take on the highly acclaimed TTM Squeeze indicator, renowned in the trading community for its efficiency in pinpointing market momentum. This script is a tribute and an extension to the foundational work laid by several pivotal figures in the trading industry:
• John Carter, for his creation of the TTM Squeeze and TTM Squeeze Pro, which revolutionized the way traders interpret volatility and momentum.
• Lazybear, whose original interpretation of the TTM Squeeze, known as the "Squeeze Momentum Indicator", provided an invaluable foundation for further development.
• Makit0, who evolved Lazybear's script to incorporate enhancements from the TTM Squeeze Pro, resulting in the "Squeeze PRO Arrows".
Our script, "Squeeze Momentum TD", represents a custom version developed after reviewing all variations of the TTM Squeeze indicator. This iteration focuses on a distinct visualization approach, featuring an overlay band on the chart for an user-friendly experience. We've distilled the essence of the TTM Squeeze and its advanced version, the TTM Squeeze Pro, into a form that emphasizes intuitive usability while retaining comprehensive analytical depth.
Features:
-Customizable Bollinger Bands and Keltner Channels: These core components of the TTM Squeeze.
-Dynamic Squeeze Conditions: Ranging from No Squeeze to High Compression.
-Momentum Oscillator: A linear regression-based momentum calculation, offering clear insights into market trends.

Squeeze & Release [AlgoAlpha]Introduction:
💡The Squeeze & Release by AlgoAlpha is an innovative tool designed to capture price volatility dynamics using a combination of EMA-based calculations and ATR principles. This script aims to provide traders with clear visual cues to spot potential market squeezes and release scenarios. Hence it is important to note that this indicator shows information on volatility, not direction.
Core Logic and Components:
🔶EMA Calculations: The script utilizes the Exponential Moving Average (EMA) in multiple ways to smooth out the data and provide indicator direction. There are specific lengths for the EMAs that users can modify as per their preference.
🔶ATR Dynamics: Average True Range (ATR) is a core component of the script. The differential between the smoothed ATR and its EMA is used to plot the main line. This differential, when represented as a percentage of the high-low range, provides insights into volatility.
🔶Squeeze and Release Detection: The script identifies and highlights squeeze and release scenarios based on the crossover and cross-under events between our main line and its smoothed version. Squeezes are potential setups where the market may be consolidating, and releases indicate a potential breakout or breakdown.
🔶Hyper Squeeze Detection: A unique feature that detects instances when the main line is rising consistently over a user-defined period. Hyper squeeze marks areas of extremely low volatility.
Visual Components:
The main line (ATR-based) changes color depending on its position relative to its EMA.
A middle line plotted at zero level which provides a quick visual cue about the main line's position. If the main line is above the zero level, it indicates that the price is squeezing on a longer time horizon, even if the indicator indicates a shorter-term release.
"𝓢" and "𝓡" characters are plotted to represent 'Squeeze' and 'Release' scenarios respectively.
Standard Deviation Bands are plotted to help users gauge the extremity and significance of the signal from the indicator, if the indicator is closer to either the upper or lower deviation bands, this means that statistically, the current value is considered to be more extreme and as it is further away from the mean where the indicator is oscillating at for the majority of the time. Thus indicating that the price has experienced an unusual amount or squeeze or release depending on the value of the indicator.
Usage Guidelines:
☝️Traders can use the script to:
Identify potential consolidation (squeeze) zones.
Gauge potential breakout or breakdown scenarios (release).
Fine-tune their entries and exits based on volatility.
Adjust the various lengths provided in the input for better customization based on individual trading styles and the asset being traded.
Range Detector [LuxAlgo]The Range Detector indicator aims to detect and highlight intervals where prices are ranging. The extremities of the ranges are highlighted in real-time, with breakouts being indicated by the color changes of the extremities.
🔶 USAGE
Ranging prices are defined by a period of stationarity, that is where prices move within a specific range.
Detecting ranging markets is a common task performed manually by traders. Price breaking one of the extremities of a range can be indicative of a new trend, with an uptrend if price breaks the upper range extremity, and a downtrend if price breaks the lower range extremity.
Ranges are highlighted as zones and are set retrospectively, that is the starting point of a range is offset in the past. The exact moment a range is detected is highlighted by a gray background color. The average between the maximum/minimum of a zone is also highlighted as a dotted line and is also set retrospectively.
The range extremities are set in real-time, blue extremities indicate the range extremities were not broken, green extremities indicate that price broke the upper range extremity, while red extremities indicate price broke the lower range extremity.
Extremities are extended until a new range is detected, allowing past ranges extremities can be used as future support/resistances.
🔶 DETAILS
The detection algorithm used to detect ranges tests if all the prices within a user-set window are all within two extremities. These extremities are determined by the mean of the detection window plus/minus an ATR value.
When a new range is detected, the script checks if this new range overlaps with a previously detected range, if this is the case, both ranges are merged into one; updating the extremities of the previous range.
This can be observed with the real-time extremities changing within a highlighted zone.
🔶 SETTINGS
Minimum Range Length: Minimum amount of bars needed to detect a range.
Range Width: Multiplicative factor for the ATR used to detect new ranges. Lower values detect ranges with a lower width. Using higher values might return false positives.
ATR Length: ATR length used to determine the range width.
IV Squeeze - Sunil Bhave This script calculates both Bollinger Bands and Keltner Channels on a 5-minute chart. It identifies IV squeeze conditions when the lower Bollinger Band is above the lower Keltner Channel and the upper Bollinger Band is below the upper Keltner Channel. When a squeeze is detected, it plots a red triangle below the chart bars and alerts you with a message.
Please note that this script is for educational purposes only.
DBMA - Dual Bollinger Moving AverageThe Dual Bollinger moving average (DBMA) consists of a moving average (MA) & two Bollinger Bands (BB), with the color of the bands representing the level of price compression. In its default settings, it is a 20-day simple moving average with 2 upper Bollinger Bands, having the standard deviation (SD) settings of 0.5 & 1, respectively.
How close the price is to the moving average?
For a pullback trader, the entry point should be close to the moving average, preferably with price compression. How close should it be, is where the bands serve as a guide. The low of the pullback candle should be within the bands, that is, at least within the far band (1 SD of the MA), or even better if it's within the near band (0.5 SD). When the price is outside the bands, it should not be considered favourable for a pullback entry.
For how long has the price been closer to the moving average?
John Carter’s TTM Squeeze indicator looked at the relationship between Bollinger Bands and Keltner's Channels to help identify period of volatility contractions. Bollinger Bands being completely enclosed within the Keltner Channels is indicative of a very low volatility. This is a state of volatility contraction known as squeeze. Using different ATR lengths (1.0, 1.5 and 2.0) for Keltner Channels, we can differentiate between levels of squeeze (High, Mid & Low compression, respectively). Greater the compression, higher the potential for explosive moves.
The squeeze portion of the script is based on LazyBear's script ( Squeeze Momentum Indicator )
The High, Mid & Low compression squeezes are depicted via the color of the bands being red, orange, or yellow, respectively. With the low of the pullback candle within the bands, & the squeeze color changing to red, it should be considered favourable for a pullback entry.
Trailing the price with the lower bands
The lower bands can be used for trailing with the moving average. While trailing, once the price closes below the moving average, the trailing stoploss (TSL) is said to be triggered, & the trade is exited. Here we use the bands to give it some cushion. Let the price close below the 1SD band for labelling the TSL as being triggered to exit the trade. If the price closes below the MA but is still within the bands, the signal is to keep holding the trade.
Reversal Squeeze (Expo)█ Overview
The Reverse Squeeze indicator aims to identify situations where market participants (either short-sellers or long buyers) are under significant pressure due to unexpected price movements, which may lead to forced actions to mitigate their losses. These pressured situations, often termed as 'squeezes,' can lead to overreactions in the market that could subsequently result in price corrections or reversals.
█ What is a squeeze?
A squeeze occurs when a significant change in price forces market participants to take drastic action to mitigate their losses. There are two types of squeezes: short squeezes and long squeezes.
Short-Sellers Squeeze: This occurs when a stock's price unexpectedly rises, pressurizing short-sellers who had bet on the stock price going down. The increased price forces these short-sellers to buy back the stocks they had borrowed and sold (to close their positions), which can create even more demand for the stock, further driving the price up. This situation is often referred to as a "short squeeze."
Long Buyers Squeeze: This is the opposite situation, occurring when a stock's price unexpectedly falls, putting long buyers under pressure. These buyers had hoped for a price increase. The decline forces these long buyers to sell off their holdings to minimize further losses, adding more supply to the market, which can push the price down even further. This situation is like a "long squeeze."
The Reverse Squeeze indicator identifies these situations, assuming that the short-sellers or long buyers' forced actions will lead to overreactions in the market, resulting in a correction or a reversal. As a trader, you might use the Reverse Squeeze indicator to identify these potential overreactions and trade on the anticipated correction or reversal.
█ How are squeezes calculated?
Calculating a squeeze involves multiple factors, primarily revolving around price movements, trading volumes, and market sentiment. While the actual positions, like the number of shorted shares or long positions, provide direct insights, there are several other indicators that traders can use to estimate potential squeezes, especially when direct data isn't readily available.
Price Action: This is an essential aspect of calculating potential squeezes. Rapid and significant increases or decreases in a stock's price can hint at potential short and long squeezes, respectively. Traders monitor these drastic price movements to anticipate possible squeezes.
Volume: Volume, or the number of shares traded within a specific period, is another crucial factor. High trading volumes usually accompany squeezes. A sudden spike in volume along with a rapid price increase can indicate a short squeeze, while a rapid volume increase along with a quick price decrease could signal a long squeeze.
Volatility: Increased volatility is often associated with squeezes. A rapid increase in volatility might suggest that a squeeze is happening or about to happen.
█ How to use the Reversal Squeeze Indicator
The Reverse Squeeze indicator can be a valuable tool in a trader's arsenal. It has the potential to give traders an 'alpha,' or an edge over other market participants, for the following reasons:
Detection of Overreactions: The indicator helps to identify market overreactions, where stocks become overbought or oversold due to forced buying or selling. These overreactions often lead to price corrections or reversals, providing potential trading opportunities.
Anticipating Price Reversals: By identifying instances where short sellers or long buyers are "squeezed" and might need to take drastic action, the indicator can help traders anticipate potential overreactions in the market that might lead to price corrections or reversals.
Risk Management: By identifying potential squeezes, traders can manage their risk more effectively. They can avoid going short on a stock if a short squeeze seems likely or avoid going long if a long squeeze is anticipated.
█ Why is the Reversal squeeze indicator Needed?
The Reverse Squeeze Indicator can provide crucial insights into market dynamics that may not be apparent with other indicators. It allows traders to spot potential trading opportunities arising from market overreactions. Moreover, by identifying potential squeezes, traders can manage their risk more effectively, avoiding positions that might put them on the wrong side of a squeeze.
█ Here's how institutions might influence market conditions that can lead to a squeeze:
Institutions can actually contribute to creating squeezes because of their size. For instance, an institution that starts covering a large short position can trigger a short squeeze.
Conversely, an institution that begins to sell a large long position can trigger a long squeeze.
Or if an institution or a group of institutions decide to buy a large number of shares in a company that has a significant number of short positions, this increased demand can cause the stock price to rise. This upward movement can put pressure on short-sellers to cover their positions, further increasing demand and driving the price even higher, creating a short squeeze.
These activities are part of the market dynamics where larger players naturally have more influence. However, it's crucial to note that deliberately creating conditions to cause harm to other market participants can cross into market manipulation, which is illegal. So while it's theoretically possible for institutions to "squeeze" the market, it's generally not their primary strategy due to the legal, ethical, and reputation risks associated. They are, however, very adept at recognizing and capitalizing on these situations when they arise naturally in the course of market dynamics.

Speed RailsCentered 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. Adjusted the settings of the VMA to move closer to price(quicker). This gives the user the ability to catch moves at support/resistance levels for added confluence.
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

Divergence RSI V2This indicator is based on the concept of divergence. I recommend that you find out and study about this yourself as the concept of divergence will not be explained in depth in this description.
This indicator will show divergences between the asset price and the RSI oscillator. The indicator will look for divergent points between the rising highs and falling lows of the asset; and the rising lows and falling highs of the RSI.
The trend of the asset tends to follow the behavior of the oscillator when a divergence occurs. So if we find a divergence between the two, the price of the asset is likely to follow the trend of the oscillator.
This indicator looks for these types of divergences and will show (based on the RSI) if there is a bullish or bearish divergence.
If it is bullish, it will show a line joining those points in green and if it is bearish in red. In addition, it will show a label where you can see the number of occurrences that have been found from a certain point to another.
Note: this indicator can be complemented with the “Divergence V2” indicator which is also found in my library.

VWAP Bollinger Band Crossover Breakout with ResistanceCredit to © Jesus_Salvatierra for VWAP script
This script help you find a trend in momentum stock that is about to breakout and shows resistance point. This script utilizes Bollinger bands VWAP and is good for intra day charts.
VWAP, or Volume Weighted Average Price, is a technical analysis tool used to measure the average price a security trades at during a given time period, weighted by the trading volume for each price level. It is commonly used by traders and investors to identify the true average price of a security and to assess whether they are buying or selling at a fair price.
A Bollinger Band is a technical analysis tool that uses standard deviation to measure the volatility of a security. The Bollinger Band is typically composed of three lines: the upper band, the lower band, and the middle band. The middle band is a simple moving average of the security's price, while the upper and lower bands are calculated based on the standard deviation of the security's price.
A Bollinger Band crossover occurs when the price of a security crosses above or below one of the bands. When the price crosses above the upper band, it is considered overbought, while when it crosses below the lower band, it is considered oversold. Traders often use Bollinger Band crossovers as a signal to enter or exit a position, depending on their trading strategy.
The VWAP and Bollinger Band crossover are two separate technical analysis tools that can be used in conjunction with each other. When a security's price crosses above or below the Bollinger Band, traders may look to the VWAP to confirm whether the security is trading at a fair price. If the security is trading above the VWAP, it may be overvalued, while if it is trading below the VWAP, it may be undervalued. Similarly, traders may use the Bollinger Band crossover as a signal to enter or exit a position, while also taking into account the VWAP to assess whether the price is fair.
Mora's Compression IndicatorIntroducing Mora's Price Compression indicator.
One of the biggest challenges in trading strategies is to differentiate between zones in which price is consolidated (so called squeezed) and zones of price expansion. Zones of consolidation can indicate traders' indecision or the creation of order blocks, but regardless of their mechanism, most indicators behave differently in those areas as oppose to times when price is trending.
A traditional indicator of consolidation zones is the so call Squeeze, which combines Bollinger Bands and Keltner’s Channels.. although broadly used, its interpretation is not quite straightforward.
Here a new indicator is introduced to identify areas of consolidation or expansion based on current and historical volatility.
Ultimately we know the price is consolidated (current volatility) when it starts raging within a narrower band that we are use to see (Historical volatility), so the ratio of the current to historical volatility becomes a straightforward identification of consolidation zones and that is what this indicator provides.
The indicator is scaled such that values near zero mean price is compressed and values near 100 price is over-extended. The indicators is designed to allow different time-frames, while avoiding repainting.

What is Moving Average Convergence Divergence – MACD?
The most popular indicator used in technical analysis, Moving average convergence divergence ( MACD ) reveal changes in the strength, direction, momentum, and duration of a trend in a financial instrument’s price. It's a trend-following momentum indicator that shows the relationship between two moving averages of a security’s price. The MACD is calculated by subtracting the 26-period exponential moving average ( EMA ) from the 12-period EMA.
The MACD indicator is typically good for identifying three types of basic signals;
Signal Line Crossovers
A Signal Line Crossover is the most common signal produced by the MACD . On the occasions where the MACD Line crosses above or below the Signal Line, that can signify a potentially strong move. The standard interpretation of such an event is a recommendation to buy if the MACD line crosses up through the Signal Line (a "bullish" crossover), or to sell if it crosses down through the Signal Line (a "bearish" crossover). These events are taken as indications that the trend in the financial instrument is about to accelerate in the direction of the crossover.
Zero Line Crossovers
Zero Line Crossovers occur when the MACD Line crossed the Zero Line and either becomes positive (above 0) or negative (below 0). A change from positive to negative MACD is interpreted as "bearish", and from negative to positive as "bullish". Zero crossovers provide evidence of a change in the direction of a trend but less confirmation of its momentum than a signal line crossover
Divergence
Divergence is another signal created by the MACD . Simply, divergence occurs when the MACD and actual price are not in agreement. A "positive divergence" or "bullish divergence" occurs when the price makes a new low but the MACD does not confirm with a new low of its own. A "negative divergence" or "bearish divergence" occurs when the price makes a new high but the MACD does not confirm with a new high of its own. A divergence with respect to price may occur on the MACD line and/or the MACD Histogram
Moving Average Crossovers, another hidden signal that MACD Indicator identifies
Many traders will watch for a short-term moving average to cross above a longer-term moving average and use this to signal increasing upward momentum. This bullish crossover suggests that the price has recently been rising at a faster rate than it has in the past, so it is a common technical buy sign. Conversely, a short-term moving average crossing below a longer-term average is used to illustrate that the asset's price has been moving downward at a faster rate and that it may be a good time to sell.
Moving Average Crossovers in reality is Zero Line Crossovers, the value of the MACD indicator is equal to zero each time the two moving averages cross over each other. For easy interpretation by trades, Zero Line Crossovers are simply described as positive or negative MACD
False signals
Like any forecasting algorithm, the MACD can generate false signals. A false positive, for example, would be a bullish crossover followed by a sudden decline in a financial instrument. A false negative would be a situation where there is bearish crossover, yet the financial instrument accelerated suddenly upwards
What is Awesome Oscillator?
The Awesome Oscillator is an indicator used to measure market momentum. AO calculates the difference of a 34 Period and 5 Period Simple Moving Averages. The Simple Moving Averages that are used are not calculated using closing price but rather each bar's midpoints. AO is generally used to affirm trends or to anticipate possible reversals.
