ADR Dashboard with Move, Left and AlertsIndicator Name: ADR Dashboard with Move, Left and Alerts
Overview
The ADR Dashboard is a powerful real-time trading tool that tracks how much a stock, crypto, or other asset has moved today relative to its Average Daily Range (ADR). It provides a clear visual representation of:
1. Today’s price movement (Move)
2. Remaining potential movement left to reach ADR (Left)
3. Percentage of ADR covered (% Covered)
4.Additionally, it provides automated alerts for key movement thresholds.
A) What it Does
1.Calculates the Average Daily Range (ADR):
2. Uses True Range over a user-defined lookback period (default 14 days).
3. ADR measures typical daily volatility.
B) Tracks Today’s Move:
1. Move = Current Price – Today’s Open (Realtime)
2. Positive → bullish move, Negative → bearish move
C) Tracks Remaining Potential (Left):
1. Left = ADR – |Move| (Realtime)
2. Shows how much of the ADR is still available for today’s move
3. Percentage Covered:
4. % Covered = |Move| / ADR × 100
D) Color-coded for visual clarity:
1. Green (<50%) → small move, plenty of range left
2. Yellow (50–80%) → moderate move, watch for acceleration
3. Orange (80–100%) → strong move, ADR almost reached
4. Red (>100%) → ADR exceeded, momentum may be exhausted
E) Dashboard Table:
1. Columns: ADR | Move | Left | % Covered
2. Position: middle-right of the chart
F) Left column color-coded:
1. Green → some ADR left
2. Red → ADR fully reached or exceeded
3. Move column: usually yellow for visibility, but could be enhanced for positive/negative moves
G) Alerts
The indicator provides directional alerts:
Bullish Alerts (upward moves):
1. 90% ADR warning: fires when Move ≥ 90% of ADR → early warning of strong bullish momentum
2. 100% ADR breach: fires when Move ≥ ADR → full daily range reached
Bearish Alerts (downward moves):
1. 90% ADR warning: fires when Move ≤ -90% of ADR → early warning of strong bearish momentum
2. 100% ADR breach: fires when Move ≤ -ADR → full daily range reached
All alerts are unique and fire once per session per threshold.
H) How Traders Can Use This Indicator
Momentum Trading:
1. Identify strong intraday moves approaching ADR.
2. Enter positions early at 90% ADR warning or take profits near 100% ADR.
Scalping & Intraday Trading:
1. Gauge how much of today’s range is left for quick entries/exits.
2. Avoid trades when ADR is almost fully consumed → reduces risk of reversals.
Swing Trading:
1. Combine with trend indicators to see if today’s move is significant relative to historical volatility.
I) Risk Management:
1. Set profit targets or stop-loss levels based on Move and Left values.
Visual Efficiency:
At-a-glance view of Move, Left, % Covered, and alert status without manual calculations.
Key Features
1. Real-time Move and Left updates
2. Color-coded % Covered and Left for quick visualization
3. Alerts for 90% and 100% ADR levels, bullish and bearish
4. Clean dashboard table at middle-right of the chart
5. Works across stocks, crypto, forex, and other markets
J) Why This Indicator is Powerful
1. Combines volatility (ADR) with real-time price tracking
2. Provides visual clarity and actionable alerts
3. Helps traders stay ahead of intraday moves, manage risk, and time entries/exits effectively
Statistics
SterlCore FX [JOATSterlCore FX Matrix is a multi-timeframe forex indicator that integrates market structure analysis, central bank policy proxies, currency strength correlation, session-based liquidity tracking, and volatility diagnostics into a single overlay system.
Note: This script is published as an invite-only INDICATOR. It does not generate backtesting results or automated trade execution. Access requires authorization through the script's access control settings.
## Why This Script Merits Invite-Only Protection
This indicator combines multiple analytical dimensions that individually exist as separate tools across the trading community. The value proposition lies in the specific integration methodology and composite scoring system that synthesizes:
Multi-timeframe EMA lattice with adaptive ATR channels for structure analysis
Central bank policy pressure assessment using normalized currency index calculations
Real-time currency strength matrix across eight major currencies with correlation intelligence
Session-specific VWAP calculations with drift metrics and range analysis
Composite macro confluence scoring that weights and combines all analytical modules
The proprietary elements include the mathematical weighting system for the macro confluence score, the specific normalization methods for currency strength calculations, and the integration logic that prevents conflicting signals across modules. While individual components like EMAs and RSI are standard, their specific combination, the composite scoring methodology, and the multi-module integration represent original development work that justifies source code protection.
---
## How Components Work Together
The indicator's value comes from how its modules interact, not from any single component:
Data Flow:
1. Multi-timeframe EMAs establish directional bias across strategic, tactical, and execution timeframes
2. Currency strength matrix identifies which currencies are strengthening/weakening across the broader market
3. Policy proxies assess central bank pressure differentials between base and quote currencies
4. Session VWAPs track intraday institutional positioning and drift
5. Correlation grid monitors whether related pairs confirm or contradict the current pair's signals
6. Momentum and volatility filters ensure signals only fire during favorable market conditions
Integration Logic:
Each module produces a normalized score (-1 to +1). These scores are weighted and combined into the macroConfluence composite:
Structure score receives highest weight (50%) as the primary trend filter
Carry composite (30%) captures policy-driven flows
Currency strength spread (20%) validates pair-specific momentum
Momentum, liquidity, session drift, and correlation act as modifiers that can dampen or amplify signals
Why This Integration Matters:
A standard EMA crossover might signal "buy" while currency strength shows the base currency weakening, session VWAP shows price below fair value, and correlation pairs are diverging. The composite scoring system catches these conflicts and reduces signal confidence accordingly. This multi-dimensional validation is what separates this indicator from simple mashups that display multiple indicators without integration.
---
## Core Functionality
This indicator addresses the challenge of synthesizing multiple analytical dimensions in forex trading. Currency markets operate across multiple timeframes simultaneously, with central bank policy shifts, cross-pair correlations, and session-specific liquidity patterns all influencing price action. Most indicators focus on a single dimension; this script attempts to integrate several.
What This Script Does:
Multi-timeframe structure analysis using synchronized EMAs across strategic (daily), tactical (4-hour), and execution (hourly) timeframes
Central bank policy pressure assessment through normalized currency index proxies
Real-time currency strength matrix tracking eight major currencies (USD, EUR, GBP, JPY, AUD, CAD, CHF, NZD)
Cross-pair correlation monitoring using configurable reference pairs
Session-based VWAP calculations with drift and range metrics for Asia, Europe, and US trading windows
Market structure detection including break-of-structure (BOS) confirmation, liquidity sweep identification, and RSI-based divergence alerts
Composite macro confluence score combining all modules with configurable weights
---
## Technical Architecture
### Multi-Timeframe Structure Lattice
The indicator calculates exponential moving averages (EMAs) across three timeframes:
Strategic EMA (default: Daily timeframe, 96-period EMA) — Anchors to longer-term monetary drift and macro flows
Tactical EMA (default: 4-hour timeframe, 55-period EMA) — Captures rotational pressure during positioning for economic data or policy events
Execution EMA (default: 1-hour timeframe, 21-period EMA) — Tracks microstructure in real time
An adaptive ATR-based channel surrounds the execution EMA to define a "value corridor" for entry consideration. Break-of-structure (BOS) logic requires price to close beyond prior swing highs/lows by a configurable ATR percentage threshold to reduce false breakouts.
### Policy Gradient & Carry Intelligence
The script uses currency index proxies (defaults: FX_IDC:EURUSD and FX_IDC:USDJPY ) to approximate central bank policy pressure. These proxies are smoothed via EMA and normalized over a lookback period.
The carryComposite calculation blends:
Normalized policy spread between base and quote currency proxies
Policy drift (difference between tactical and macro timeframe policy spreads)
Carry acceleration (rate of change in policy spread)
Carry opportunity signals appear when the composite exceeds a threshold and aligns with structure bias and currency strength dispersion.
### Currency Strength Matrix
Eight currency baskets are tracked using configurable symbol inputs (defaults use $FX_IDC pairs). Each currency's strength is normalized to a -1 to +1 scale relative to its lookback range. The heatmap table displays which currencies are dominating, allowing quick assessment of broad market moves before they appear in individual pair price action.
### Correlation Intelligence Grid
Three reference pairs (defaults: FX_IDC:EURUSD , FX_IDC:GBPUSD , FX_IDC:USDJPY ) are monitored on a higher timeframe. The script calculates correlation coefficients and assigns qualitative descriptors: "Lockstep +", "Aligned +", "Loose", "Aligned -", or "Lockstep -". A correlation consensus value feeds into the macro confluence calculation, dampening signals when reference pairs show conflicting behavior.
### Momentum, Volatility & Liquidity Stack
Dual ROC momentum — Fast and slow rate-of-change calculations prevent whipsaw from single-length oscillators
Volatility pulse — Compares current ATR to a slower baseline; signals require volatility above a floor threshold
Volatility forecast slope — Uses linear regression to project ATR 21 bars ahead, warning of imminent expansion or contraction
Liquidity pulse — Compares current volume to smoothed average; low participation is visually indicated via background tinting
### Session Awareness & Performance Console
Asia, Europe, and US trading sessions are tracked with configurable UTC windows. Each session maintains:
Live VWAP that resets at session open
Drift score quantifying price deviation from VWAP in ATR terms
Range percentage showing session expansion relative to VWAP
Session bias composite feeds into macro confluence to reduce signal aggression when all sessions are mean-reverting.
### Liquidity & Market Structure Suite
Liquidity sweeps — Detects stop hunts above prior highs or below prior lows within a configurable lookback
RSI divergence — Identifies momentum divergences using confirmed pivot points only
Supply/demand zones — Automatically generated from pivot highs/lows and projected forward for a set number of bars
### Macro Alignment Engine
The macroConfluence score combines:
Structure score (weighted average of strategic/tactical/execution EMAs)
Carry composite
Currency strength spread (base minus quote)
Momentum score
Liquidity modifier
Session bias composite
Correlation consensus
Long/short alignment signals require:
Macro confluence exceeding configurable threshold (default: 0.55)
Volatility pulse above floor threshold
Optional: Price above/below tactical EMA (execution filter toggle)
---
## Visual Elements
Candle Coloring: Candles are recolored based on macro confluence: teal for bullish alignment, magenta for bearish alignment, neutral gray for distribution phases.
Background Tint: Volatility intensity modulates chart background; bold colors indicate elevated ATR, washed-out tones suggest choppy conditions.
Labels:
Macro Align Long/Short — Primary entry signals when confluence exceeds threshold
BOS↑/↓ — Break-of-structure confirmation
Sweep↑/↓ — Liquidity sweep detection
RSI Bull/Bear Div — Momentum divergence alerts
Carry Bias± — Policy-strength alignment flags
Session Overlays: Transparent background shading indicates active trading sessions (Asia, Europe, US) with configurable opacity.
Session VWAPs: Each region's VWAP is plotted in a distinct color (teal for Asia, blue for Europe, purple for US).
---
## Dashboard Tables
The indicator includes several configurable information tables:
Intelligence Dashboard (top-right, default) — Displays strategic/tactical/execution bias, policy pressure, currency spread, volatility pulse, policy impulse, session drift, correlation, and macro state
Currency Heatmap (bottom-right, default) — Shows normalized strength values for all tracked currencies
Correlation Grid (bottom-left, default) — Lists reference pairs with correlation coefficients and qualitative states
Session Performance Panel (bottom-center, default) — Displays drift scores and range percentages for each session
Diagnostics Table (top-left, optional) — Additional session range metrics and liquidity pulse values
All table positions are configurable via input settings to avoid overlap with TradingView UI elements.
---
## Configuration Parameters
Multi-Timeframe Structure: All EMA timeframes and lengths are adjustable. Default strategic timeframe is Daily; tactical is 4-hour; execution is 1-hour.
Policy Proxies: Base and quote currency policy proxy symbols are user-configurable. Defaults use $FX_IDC pairs for broad compatibility.
Currency Strength: Each currency's tracking can be toggled on/off. Symbol inputs allow substitution of alternative data sources if default indices are unavailable.
Correlation References: Three reference pair symbols, timeframe, and lookback period are all configurable.
Signal Thresholds: Macro alignment trigger, volatility pulse floor, and carry opportunity threshold are adjustable to match different trading styles.
Visual Controls: Label visibility, zone display, session overlays, VWAP plotting, and all dashboard tables can be toggled independently.
---
## Technical Implementation Notes
Pine Script v6 compliant
All request.security calls use lookahead_off to prevent historical repainting
BOS, divergence, and sweep detection rely on confirmed pivot points only
Session VWAP calculations reset strictly on session boundaries
Zone objects are automatically capped and managed to respect TradingView resource limits
All calculations include division-by-zero guards and NA handling for real-time stability
---
## Usage Considerations
Timeframe Selection: The indicator is designed for forex pairs. Default timeframes (D/4H/1H) are optimized for swing and intraday trading. Scalpers may prefer shorter execution timeframes; position traders may extend strategic to weekly.
Pair Compatibility: Tested on major pairs ( FX:EURUSD , FX:GBPUSD , FX:USDJPY , OANDA:USDCHF , OANDA:AUDUSD , OANDA:USDCAD , OANDA:NZDUSD ), cross-pairs, and FX-derived CFDs. Policy proxy symbols should be adjusted to match your data feed availability.
Session Windows: Default UTC windows (Asia: 22:00-06:00, Europe: 06:00-13:00, US: 13:00-21:00) can be customized. Adjust for daylight saving time transitions as needed.
Signal Interpretation: Macro alignment signals indicate confluence across multiple dimensions but do not guarantee profitable outcomes. Use in conjunction with risk management and market context. The indicator is a tool for analysis, not a standalone trading system.
Resource Usage: With all features enabled, the script operates within TradingView's resource budgets. Disable unused modules (currency tracking, correlation grid, diagnostics) if running multiple instances on a single layout.
---
## Limitations & Compromises
Policy proxies are approximations using currency indices; actual central bank policy requires external economic analysis
Correlation calculations use price-based correlation, which may lag during regime shifts
Session VWAPs reset at session boundaries; overlapping sessions (e.g., London/NY) may show conflicting signals
Supply/demand zones are generated from pivots; false zones may appear during ranging markets
Macro confluence is a composite score; individual components may conflict, requiring discretionary interpretation
The indicator is optimized for trending and rotational markets. Performance may degrade during extended consolidation or during major economic event volatility when multiple central banks act simultaneously.
---
## Alert System
The script includes four alert conditions:
SterlCore FX Bullish Alignment — Fires when macro confluence exceeds threshold with volatility and EMA filters satisfied
SterlCore FX Bearish Alignment — Mirror of bullish logic
SterlCore FX Carry Long — Fires when carry composite, currency spread, and structure align for long bias
SterlCore FX Carry Short — Mirror of carry long logic
All alerts fire once per bar at bar close.

🔬 METHODOLOGY
WHAT IS Z-SCORE?
Z-Score measures how many standard deviations a value is from its mean. In
trading, it identifies statistical extremes:
• Z > +2: Price is 2 standard deviations above average (overbought)
• Z < -2: Price is 2 standard deviations below average (oversold)
• Z near 0: Price is near its average (neutral)
ROBUST Z-SCORE (MAD METHOD):
Instead of simple mean/standard deviation (susceptible to outliers), the MAD
(Median Absolute Deviation) method uses:
• Median instead of mean (more robust)
• MAD instead of standard deviation (outlier resistant)
• Used by quantitative hedge funds for options pricing
VOLUME-WEIGHTED Z-SCORE:
Gives more weight to high-volume bars, revealing institutional activity:
• VWAP-based calculation
• Identifies smart money moves
• Better for options and derivatives trading
ADAPTIVE LOOKBACK:
Automatically adjusts calculation period based on volatility:
• High volatility → Shorter lookback (more responsive)
• Low volatility → Longer lookback (more stable)
• Reduces false signals across market conditions
━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━
📊 QUADRANT ANALYSIS EXPLAINED

CRR Nemesis v6 Institutional Permission Engine for XAUUSDCRR Nemesis — Institutional Permission Engine for XAUUSD
This script is a single integrated workflow; each module exists only to support the same permission decision.
CRR Nemesis is an institutional multi-layer permission engine designed specifically for XAUUSD scalping and intraday execution.
This script is not a mashup of indicators.
All its internal modules exist for a single unified purpose:
to produce a trade permission state only when institutional structure, timing and power are aligned.
Nemesis does not emit random buy/sell signals.
It releases professional execution permissions only when all institutional layers agree.
System architecture
Multi-timeframe direction engine
Nemesis analyzes directional permission across 1m, 5m, 15m and 1D.
Lower timeframes must align with or not contradict higher-timeframe structure.
Smart Money Structure (SMC)
Tracks HH, HL, LH, LL, Break of Structure (BOS), Change of Character (ChoCH) and internal swing ranges to define accumulation, manipulation and expansion phases.
Institutional mitigation zones
Automatically draws bullish and bearish mitigation zones based on internal swing structure and ATR logic.
Fibonacci mitigation engine
Defines institutional premium and discount zones (38.2%–78.6%) to locate execution areas.
Anti-trap institutional filter
Blocks low-probability and retail-type entries, preventing buy/sell traps and false momentum trades.
Institutional session timing engine
Uses real New York, London and Tokyo session windows to define high-probability trading periods.
Candlestick power confirmation
Validates execution using engulfing behavior, impulse displacement and reversal structures.
Pro setup engine
Final PRO BUY and PRO SELL permissions are released only when all institutional layers align.
How to use
• Symbol: XAUUSD
• Execution timeframe: 1 minute (recommended)
• Trade primarily during London & New York sessions
• Execute only when PRO BUY / PRO SELL permissions appear
• Avoid trades when blocked states are shown
Chart rule
Publish with a clean chart.
Use this script alone, without other indicators or drawings, unless explicitly explained.

Session Volume Analyzer [JOAT]
Session Volume Analyzer — Global Trading Session and Volume Intelligence System
This indicator addresses the analytical challenge of understanding market participation patterns across global trading sessions. It combines precise session detection with comprehensive volume analysis to provide insights into when and how different market participants are active. The tool recognizes that different trading sessions exhibit distinct characteristics in terms of participation, volatility, and volume patterns.
Why This Combination Provides Unique Analytical Value
Traditional session indicators typically only show time boundaries, while volume indicators show raw volume data without session context. This creates analytical gaps:
1. **Session Context Missing**: Volume spikes without session context provide incomplete information
2. **Participation Patterns Hidden**: Different sessions have different participant types (retail, institutional, algorithmic)
3. **Comparative Analysis Lacking**: No easy way to compare volume patterns across sessions
4. **Timing Intelligence Absent**: Understanding WHEN volume occurs is as important as HOW MUCH volume occurs
This indicator's originality lies in creating an integrated session-volume analysis system that:
**Provides Session-Aware Volume Analysis**: Volume data is contextualized within specific trading sessions
**Enables Cross-Session Comparison**: Compare volume patterns between Asian, London, and New York sessions
**Delivers Participation Intelligence**: Understand which sessions are showing above-normal participation
**Offers Real-Time Session Tracking**: Know exactly which session is active and how current volume compares
Technical Innovation and Originality
While session detection and volume analysis exist separately, the innovation lies in:
1. **Integrated Session-Volume Architecture**: Simultaneous tracking of session boundaries and volume statistics creates comprehensive market participation analysis
2. **Multi-Session Volume Comparison System**: Real-time calculation and comparison of volume statistics across different global sessions
3. **Adaptive Volume Threshold Detection**: Automatic identification of above-average volume periods within session context
4. **Comprehensive Visual Integration**: Session backgrounds, volume highlights, and statistical dashboards provide complete market participation picture
How Session Detection and Volume Analysis Work Together
The integration creates a sophisticated market participation analysis system:
**Session Detection Logic**: Uses Pine Script's time functions to identify active sessions
// Session detection based on exchange time
bool inAsian = not na(time(timeframe.period, asianSession))
bool inLondon = not na(time(timeframe.period, londonSession))
bool inNY = not na(time(timeframe.period, nySession))
// Session transition detection
bool asianStart = inAsian and not inAsian
bool londonStart = inLondon and not inLondon
bool nyStart = inNY and not inNY
**Volume Analysis Integration**: Volume statistics are calculated within session context
// Session-specific volume accumulation
if asianStart
asianVol := 0.0
asianBars := 0
if inAsian
asianVol += volume
asianBars += 1
// Real-time session volume analysis
float asianAvgVol = asianBars > 0 ? asianVol / asianBars : 0
**Relative Volume Assessment**: Current volume compared to session-specific averages
float volMA = ta.sma(volume, volLength)
float volRatio = volMA > 0 ? volume / volMA : 1
// Volume classification within session context
bool isHighVol = volRatio >= 1.5 and volRatio < 2.5
bool isVeryHighVol = volRatio >= 2.5
This creates a system where volume analysis is always contextualized within the appropriate trading session, providing more meaningful insights than raw volume data alone.
Comprehensive Session Analysis Framework
**Default Session Definitions** (customizable based on broker timezone):
- **Asian Session**: 1800-0300 (exchange time) - Represents Asian market participation including Tokyo, Hong Kong, Singapore
- **London Session**: 0300-1200 (exchange time) - Represents European market participation
- **New York Session**: 0800-1700 (exchange time) - Represents North American market participation
**Session Overlap Analysis**: The system recognizes and highlights overlap periods:
- **London/New York Overlap**: 0800-1200 - Typically the highest volume period
- **Asian/London Overlap**: 0300-0300 (brief) - Transition period
- **New York/Asian Overlap**: 1700-1800 (brief) - End of NY, start of Asian
**Volume Intelligence Features**:
1. **Session-Specific Volume Accumulation**: Tracks total volume within each session
2. **Cross-Session Volume Comparison**: Compare current session volume to other sessions
3. **Relative Volume Detection**: Identify when current volume exceeds historical averages
4. **Participation Pattern Analysis**: Understand which sessions show consistent high/low participation
Advanced Volume Analysis Methods
**Relative Volume Calculation**:
float volMA = ta.sma(volume, volLength) // Volume moving average
float volRatio = volMA > 0 ? volume / volMA : 1 // Current vs average ratio
// Multi-tier volume classification
bool isNormalVol = volRatio < 1.5
bool isHighVol = volRatio >= 1.5 and volRatio < 2.5
bool isVeryHighVol = volRatio >= 2.5
bool isExtremeVol = volRatio >= 4.0
**Session Volume Tracking**:
// Cumulative session volume with bar counting
if londonStart
londonVol := 0.0
londonBars := 0
if inLondon
londonVol += volume
londonBars += 1
// Average volume per bar calculation
float londonAvgVol = londonBars > 0 ? londonVol / londonBars : 0
**Cross-Session Volume Comparison**:
The system maintains running totals for each session, enabling real-time comparison of participation levels across different global markets.

Important Limitations and Realistic Expectations
Session times are approximate and depend on your broker's server timezone—manual adjustment may be required for accuracy
Volume data quality varies significantly by broker, instrument, and market type
Cryptocurrency and some forex markets trade continuously, making traditional session boundaries less meaningful
High volume indicates participation level only—it does not predict price direction or market outcomes
Session participation patterns can change over time due to market structure evolution, holidays, and economic conditions
This tool displays historical and current market participation data—it cannot predict future volume or price movements
Volume spikes can occur for numerous reasons unrelated to directional price movement (news, algorithmic trading, etc.)
Different instruments exhibit different session sensitivity and volume patterns
Market holidays and special events can significantly alter normal session patterns
Appropriate Use Cases
This indicator is designed for:
- Market participation pattern analysis
- Session-based trading schedule planning
- Volume context and comparison across sessions
- Educational study of global market structure
- Supplementary analysis for session-based strategies
This indicator is NOT designed for:
- Standalone trading signal generation
- Volume-based price direction prediction
- Automated trading system triggers
- Guaranteed session pattern repetition
- Replacement of fundamental or sentiment analysis
Understanding Session Analysis Limitations
Session analysis provides valuable context but has inherent limitations:
- Session patterns can change due to economic conditions, holidays, and market structure evolution
- Volume patterns may not repeat consistently across different market conditions
- Global events can override normal session characteristics
- Different asset classes respond differently to session boundaries
- Technology and algorithmic trading continue to blur traditional session distinctions

Max Pain Options [QuantLabs] v5 (Balanced)Institutional Grade Options Analysis: Max Pain, Gamma & Pin Risk
For years, TradingView users have been flying blind without access to Options Chain data. QuantLabs: Max Pain & Gamma Exposure changes that. This is not just a support/resistance indicator—it is a sophisticated, algorithmic model that reverse-engineers the incentives of Market Makers using synthetic Black-Scholes logic.
This tool visualizes the "invisible hand" of the market: the hedging requirements of large dealers who are forced to buy or sell to keep their books neutral.
CORE FEATURES:
🔴 Max Pain Gravity Model The bright red line represents the "Max Pain" strike—the price level where the maximum amount of Options Open Interest (Calls + Puts) expires worthless.
Theory: As OpEx (Expiration) approaches, Market Makers maximize profits by pinning the price to this level.
Strategy: Use this as a mean-reversion target. If price is far away, look for a snap-back to the red line.
🟣 Gamma Exposure Profiles (The Purple Lines) These neon histograms show you the estimated "Gamma Walls."
Long Gamma: Dealers trade against the trend (stabilizing price).
Short Gamma: Dealers trade with the trend (accelerating volatility).
Visual: The larger the purple bar, the harder it will be for price to break through that level.
📦 Algorithmic "Pin Risk" Zones The dashed red box highlights the "Kill Zone." When price enters this area near expiration, volatility often dies as dealers pin the asset to kill retail premiums.
Warning: Do not expect breakouts while inside the Pin Zone.
📊 Institutional HUD A clean, non-intrusive dashboard provides real-time Greeks and risk analysis:
Pin Risk: High/Medium/Low probability of a pinned close.
Exp Mode: Detects if the market is in "Short Gamma" (Squeeze territory) or "Long Gamma" (Chop territory).
HOW IT WORKS (The Math): Since live options data is not available via Pine Script, this engine uses a proprietary Synthetic OI Distribution Model. It inputs Volume, Volatility (IV), and Time-to-Expiry into a modified Black-Scholes equation to probability-map where the heavy open interest likely sits.
SETTINGS & CUSTOMIZATION:
Responsiveness: Tuned for the "Goldilocks Zone" (Spread: 12, Decay: 22) to catch local liquidity walls without over-fitting.
Visuals: Designed for Dark Mode. High-contrast Neon aesthetics for maximum readability.
SCOTTGO - Float, Change %, Vol & RVol DataFloat, Vol & Short Data Dashboard
Overview
The Float, Vol & Short Data Dashboard is a professional-grade monitoring tool designed for equity traders who need to track supply, demand, and momentum in real-time. By aggregating float size, relative volume, and short-selling activity into a clean, customizable table, this script helps you identify high-conviction trade setups without cluttering your price chart.
Key Metrics Included
Float: (Shares) – Instantly see the available supply of shares to gauge potential volatility.
Change %: (From close) – Tracks the percentage gain/loss since the previous day's closing price.
Change %: (From open) – Monitors intraday strength by calculating the move from the 9:30 AM EST market open.
Volume: – Displays current daily volume with automated formatting (K, M, B).
RVOL: (Daily) – Relative Volume compared to a 10-day SMA; essential for spotting "volume-fueled" breakouts.
Short %: (Approx.) – Calculates the daily Short Volume Ratio (Short Volume / Total Volume), providing a real-time proxy for short-seller sentiment.
Professional Customization
This script was built with a focus on UI/UX:
Three-Row Header System: Features high-contrast main titles with muted-grey sub-titles for maximum readability.
Smart Color Logic: Price changes automatically toggle between green and red, while RVol highlights in orange when activity exceeds 1.5x average.
Adjustable Layout: Change the table position, text size, and background opacity.
Column Spacing: Includes a custom slider to adjust the horizontal gap between data columns, ensuring the dashboard fits any screen resolution.
How To Use
Add the script to your chart and use the Settings menu to toggle metrics or adjust the Column Spacing to your preference. Ideal for day traders and swing traders monitoring US Equities where float and short volume data are most impactful.
NW Curved Interest ZonesThis indicator automatically scans and plots curved (non-linear) interest zones using Nadaraya-Watson kernel regression smoothing to create a dynamic, adaptive "mean" curve. It then identifies and draws the strongest parallel curved zones where price has repeatedly bounced with statistical validation – perfect for non-linear, organic trending or ranging markets.
How It Works (Technical Methodology)
Curved Mean Calculation
The core curve is generated via Nadaraya-Watson kernel regression (Gaussian weighting):
Smooths closing prices over the lookback period with user-adjustable bandwidth (default 30.0) – higher = smoother/less reactive, lower = tighter fit.
Range methods: "Lookback Bars" (default 400), "Fixed Start Date", or "Entire History".
Channel Envelope Detection
Measures maximum deviations above/below the smoothed curve across the period.
Defines full channel height and base offset for percentage-based zoning.
Stable Update & Anti-Repaint Logic
Full recalculation only after user-defined closed bars (default 50) OR on forced break (if price escapes visible zone envelope).
All data (curve points, slope for projection, levels, scores) snapshotted and frozen until next confirmed update.
Prevents flickering/live-bar repainting while allowing adaptive refresh.
Auto Mode Scanning
When enabled:
Scans channel height in % steps (default 1.0%).
Each candidate creates a thin curved zone parallel to the NW curve (thickness % of price, default 0.01%).
Counts valid "hits": Price touches zone and holds without break for user-defined bars (default 20).
Break source: "Close" (conservative) or "Wick" (sensitive).
Direction inferred from close relative to zone center.
Level Selection
Ranks by hit count, filters close clusters (min distance %), limits to max zones (default 8).
Manual mode: Directly applies user percentages (e.g., 0/50/100 for bottom/median/top).
Curved Zone Construction
Zones drawn as smooth, filled polylines (curved=true) following the kernel regression shape.
Historical section uses exact smoothed points; future projection uses last slope for realistic extension.
Optional long future extension or limited projection.
Dynamic coloring: Supply (above price), Demand (below price).
Dashboard
Table displays current price at each zone (stable during bar), % level, hit count (green when strong).
Update status with countdown or "TRIGGERED!" on force break.
How to Use
Ideal for markets with natural curvature (parabolic moves, rounded bottoms/tops, organic trends).
High hit counts: Proven curved support/resistance – expect strong reactions.
Bandwidth: Higher (50+) for major structural curves; lower (10–20) for shorter-term adaptive zones.
Hold Bars: Increase for stricter validation in noisy assets.
Force Break Update: Keeps zones relevant during strong trends/breakouts.
Supply Zones (Curved above price): Dynamic overhead resistance.
Demand Zones (Curved below price): Dynamic underlying support.
Confluence: Excellent with volume, order blocks, or divergence for entries/exits.
Manual Mode: Quickly overlay classic % (e.g., channel parallels).
Smooth, non-repainting curved zones provide superior visual alignment to real price action compared to linear channels.
Disclaimer
This indicator is a technical analysis tool and should be used in conjunction with other forms of analysis. Past performance does not guarantee future results. Always use proper risk management.
CloverKnight## CloverKnight (4H Inside Bar Breakout) — Description for Publishing
**CloverKnight** is a 4H-only inside-bar breakout indicator that identifies **Nested** or **Chained** inside-bar patterns (children candles inside a “mother” candle), then suggests a breakout entry with **EP / SL / TP** and shows a performance summary (Win/Draw/Loss, Win Rate, and ORPT) for a selected backtest window.
This script is designed for traders who want a clean, rule-based inside-bar breakout with optional filters and risk sizing calculations.
---
## What it does
### 1) Inside Bar Pattern Detection
CloverKnight detects inside-bar structures with two pattern styles:
* **Nested**: all child candles must be inside the same mother candle
* **Chained**: each child candle must be inside the previous candle
You control how many child candles are required via **Inside Bar Count**.
### 2) Direction Logic (Buy/Sell)
Direction can be determined by:
* **Last** candle direction
* **Mother** candle direction
* **Vote** (majority of bull/bear candles across mother + children)
You can also restrict trading signals via **Trade Side**:
* Both / Buy Only / Sell Only
### 3) Optional EMA200 Direction Filter
If enabled:
* Buy signals only when price is above EMA
* Sell signals only when price is below EMA
### 4) Day-of-Week Filter
You can allow or block signals by weekday (Mon–Sun).
### 5) Risk & Position Size Estimation
For each valid signal, the script calculates:
* **SL distance (pips)** based on mother range
* **Lot size** based on:
* Account Balance
* Risk per Trade (%)
* Pip Value per 1.0 lot (user input)
> Note: This is an estimation tool. Pip value depends on broker/symbol/contract size.
### 6) Trade Simulation & Outcome Tracking (Simple Backtest)
The script simulates a simplified trade lifecycle:
* Signal creates a **pending** breakout order
* Trade triggers when price hits EP
* Outcomes:
* **Win** if TP hit
* **Loss** if SL hit
* **Draw (BE)** if price reaches **+1R**, then returns to EP
### 7) Summary Table (Top Right)
A compact table shows:
* **W / D / L**
* **WR** (Win Rate)
* **MCL** (Max Consecutive Losses)
* **ORPT** (Optimized Risk Per Trade)
---
## Backtest Modes
### A) Years Mode
Backtest only within the last **X years** (default 5, max 10).
Stats reset when a new “Years window” begins.
### B) Trades Mode
Backtest based on last **N completed trades** (default 100, max 500).
This mode uses a rolling array of outcomes.
---
## Inputs (Quick Guide)
**Pattern**
* Inside Bar Count (Only Children)
* Inside Pattern Type: Nested / Chained
* Direction Source: Last / Mother / Vote
* Trade Side: Both / Buy Only / Sell Only
**Backtest**
* Backtest Mode: Years / Trades
* Lookback (Years) / Lookback (Trades)
**Filters**
* Max SL distance (pips): ignore signals with SL larger than this (0 = no limit)
* EMA200 filter: show line + enable/disable filter
* Day-of-Week filter: allow selected days only
**Risk & Sizing**
* Account Balance
* Risk per Trade (%)
* Maximum Drawdown (%) for ORPT
* Pip Value per 1.0 Lot (adjust per symbol)
**UI**
* Font Size: Tiny / Small / Normal / Large / Huge
* Label Offset Multiplier: controls label distance from pattern range
---
## How to use
1. Apply the indicator on **4H timeframe** (required).
2. Tune **Inside Bar Count** and pattern type to match your style.
3. Enable filters (EMA / Day-of-Week) if you want cleaner signals.
4. Set your **Account Balance**, **Risk %**, and **Pip Value per Lot** for realistic sizing.
5. Use the label output (EP/SL/TP) and the summary table to evaluate behavior over your selected backtest window.
---
## Alerts
The script triggers an alert when a valid signal is found (once per bar), including:
* Buy Stop / Sell Stop
* EP / SL / TP
* RRR and estimated lot sizing
---
## Important Notes / Limitations
* **Timeframe restriction**: This script is intended for **4H only**. It will not operate correctly on other timeframes.
* **Simulation limitation**: This is not a broker-grade backtest engine. It uses candle-based logic (high/low) and simplified assumptions.
* **Lot sizing is approximate**: Pip value varies by symbol and broker contract settings. Always verify before trading.
* This indicator **does not place real orders** (not a strategy, not an EA).
MA Crossover with R SquaredThis indicator enhances the classic Moving Average (MA) crossover strategy with statistical filtering and prediction capabilities.
Let me explain what it does:
Instead of just showing when a fast MA crosses above/below a slow MA, this indicator adds R² (R-squared) filtering to identify higher-quality crossovers and predicts future crossovers.
What is R²?
R² (Coefficient of Determination) is a statistical measure that shows how well one variable explains the movement of another variable. In simpler terms:
R² = 1.0: Perfect relationship - 100% of the movement in one MA is explained by the other MA
R² = 0.8: Strong relationship - 80%
R² = 0.5: Moderate relationship - 50%
R² = 0.0: No relationship - 0%
Imagine two cars driving on a highway:
High R² (0.9): Both cars are in the same lane, moving together consistently
Low R² (0.3): One car is weaving between lanes while the other stays straight - poor coordination.
Traditional MA crossovers often generate false signals during:
Choppy markets (price bouncing around)
Sideways/ranging markets
Low volatility periods
News events causing temporary spikes
The R² Solution:
R² acts as a "quality filter" that answers: "How meaningful this crossover is?"
What this means:
Before R² filtering: Every crossover generates a signal
After R² filtering: Only crossovers with R² > threshold generate signals
Result: Fewer but higher-quality signals.
MARKET REGIME DETECTION
High R² (> 0.7): Strong trending market - MA crossovers are reliable
Medium R² (0.4-0.7): Moderate trending - use with caution
Low R² (< 0.4): Choppy/range-bound market - avoid MA crossover signals
Increasing R²: MAs are converging/moving together more closely
Decreasing R²: MAs are diverging/losing coordination
Sudden R² drop: Potential market regime change.
Why Square the Correlation?
Correlation: Measures direction AND strength (-1 to +1)
R²: Measures strength ONLY (0 to 1)
In trading: We care about relationship strength, not direction
Direction is already indicated by crossover type (bullish/bearish)
Real-World Interpretation:
If R² = 0.64, it means:
64% of the variation in the fast MA is explained by the slow MA
36% is "noise" or unexplained movement
The MAs are moderately coordinated.
R² Trend Confirmation:
Entry: When crossover occurs AND R² is above threshold
Confirmation: R² continues rising after entry
Exit: R² drops below threshold (relationship weakening)
Multi-Timeframe R² Analysis
Check R² on higher timeframe for trend context
Use current timeframe for entry signals
Example: Daily R² > 0.7 gives bullish bias, use 1-hour for entries.
R² LIMITATIONS & CAUTIONS
1. Lagging Nature
R² is calculated from past data
By the time R² is high, the trend may already be established
2. Not a Standalone Indicator
R² should confirm other signals, not generate them alone
Always combine with price action, volume, support/resistance
3. Curve Fitting Risk
Don't over-optimize R² thresholds on historical data
What worked in the past may not work in the future
Use R² as a filter, not a predictor
4. Market-Specific Behavior
R² thresholds that work in trending stocks may fail in Forex
Cryptocurrencies may require different R² settings than commodities
Always test on your specific market/instrument
Before Taking Any Signal:
✅ Does the crossover have a colored circle? (R² > threshold)
✅ What's the R² number shown? (Higher = better)
✅ Is R² rising or falling? (Rising = strengthening relationship)
✅ Check history table - what happened with similar R² values?
✅ Consider prediction - does it align with current signal?
Simple R² Rules of Thumb:
R² > 0.8: Excellent signal quality
R² 0.6-0.8: Good signal quality
R² 0.4-0.6: Moderate - use additional confirmation
R² < 0.4: Poor - avoid or use extreme caution
Think of R² as:
A quality control inspector for MA crossovers
A relationship therapist for your moving averages
A statistical bouncer that only lets strong signals through
Higher win rate + Better risk/reward = More profitable trading
This script transforms the basic "when lines cross" approach into a sophisticated, statistically-validated trading system. R² is the secret sauce that separates random crossovers (Golden/Death) from meaningful trend changes.

ATR Based SL & TP Targets from Entry (Long/Short)ATR-based target helper for manual trade planning.
Plots a single entry level plus ATR-based stop loss and take-profit targets on the price scale. The script uses a standard ATR (default 14) and lets you select the position side (Long or Short). For Long positions, it places the stop loss 1× ATR below the entry and take-profit levels at 1, 2, 3, and 4× ATR above. For Short positions, it mirrors this logic, placing the stop 1× ATR above the entry and targets 1–4× ATR below. You can adjust the entry price and ATR multipliers from the settings, and all levels update instantly, giving a clean visual of your risk and reward targets on the price scale.
-------------------
Tip:
After entry, and after I set my SL & TP levels, I hide the indicator until it's needed again.
Diagonal Interest Zones ScannerThis indicator automatically scans and plots diagonal (slanted) interest zones – dynamic trend-parallel channels that identify statistically validated support/resistance levels within a trending price structure. It detects the strongest "bounce" zones where price has repeatedly respected slanted lines without breaking for a specified hold period, ideal for trending markets.
How It Works (Technical Methodology)
Trend Channel Detection
The script calculates a linear trend slope from a user-defined anchor point (start of lookback or fixed date) to the current close.
Range is determined by finding the maximum deviation above/below this trend line over the lookback period.
This creates a "channel envelope" capturing the full price oscillation around the trend.
Data can be sourced from current or higher timeframe for structural alignment.
Stable Update Mechanism
To prevent flickering on live bars:
Full recalculation (scanning + slope) occurs only after user-defined "Update Frequency" bars close (default 50).
All calculated values (slope, channel bottom, levels, scores) are "snapshotted" and frozen until next confirmed update.
Drawing uses these stable snapshots, ensuring zones remain fixed during real-time price movement.
Auto Mode Scanning
When enabled:
Scans the channel height in percentage steps (default 1.0%).
Each candidate creates a thin diagonal zone (thickness % of price, default 0.04%) parallel to the trend.
Counts valid "hits": Price touches zone and holds (no break) for user-defined bars (default 10).
Break source: "Close" (strict) or "Wick" (sensitive).
Direction assumed by close relative to zone center (support/resistance).
Level Selection and Filtering
Ranks by hit count, applies minimum distance (% of channel height) to avoid overlap.
Limits to max zones (default 9), sorted low to high.
Manual mode alternative: Directly uses input percentages (e.g., 0, 50, 100 for channel bottom/mid/top).
Diagonal Zone Construction
Zones are drawn as filled diagonal bands using two parallel lines (top/bottom) with linefill.
Thickness is volatility-adjusted (% of current price).
Optional extension far into future or limited projection.
Colors: Supply (above price, default light gray), Demand (below price, default cyan) – updates live but positions stay stable.
Dashboard and Visuals
Table shows current price at each zone (stable during bar), % level, hit count (green if high).
Update countdown displayed for transparency.
How to Use
Perfect for trending markets – identifies dynamic, parallel support/resistance zones that move with price structure.
High hit counts: Strong diagonal zones – expect bounces or acceleration on retest.
Update Frequency: Higher values (100+) for very stable long-term channels; lower for adaptive intraday.
Validation Bars: Increase for stricter zones (fewer false positives).
Multi-Timeframe: Use higher TF input for major trend channels on lower charts.
Supply Zones (Diagonal above price): Dynamic resistance – potential shorts or profit targets.
Demand Zones (Diagonal below price): Dynamic support – potential longs or trailing stops.
Manual Mode: Quick plotting of fixed % (e.g., channel median, quartiles).
Confluence: Combine with horizontal levels, volume, or order flow for entries.
Zones remain visually stable (no repainting during bar) thanks to snapshot logic – reliable for live trading decisions.

Wickless Candle Revisit TrackerWickless Candle Revisit Tracker
Identifies wickless candles (strong momentum candles) and tracks whether price revisits their opening level, providing statistical insights into price behavior patterns.
WHAT ARE WICKLESS CANDLES?
• Green wickless: Open = Low (no lower wick) - opened at the low and moved only upward
• Red wickless: Open = High (no upper wick) - opened at the high and moved only downward
These candles represent strong directional momentum, and their opening levels often act as support/resistance zones that price may revisit.
KEY FEATURES:
• Automatic Detection: Identifies wickless candles with configurable tolerance for broker spread
• Real-time Tracking: Monitors each wickless candle until price revisits its opening level
• Visual Indicators:
- Labels show "WL↑" or "WL↓" with bars count when revisited (or "N/A" if pending)
- Horizontal lines mark price levels (gray dashed = pending, green solid = revisited)
• Comprehensive Statistics Table:
- Total wickless candles detected
- Revisit rate percentage
- Min/Max/Average bars until revisit
- Pending count
• History Limit: Configure how far back to analyze (default: 500 bars)
• Customizable: Adjust colors, toggle labels/lines/table, reposition statistics
USE CASES:
• Identify potential support/resistance levels from momentum candles
• Measure how often price fills "fair value gaps" or inefficiencies
• Track mean reversion patterns after strong momentum moves
• Backtest the reliability of wickless candle levels as trading zones
SETTINGS:
• Wick Tolerance: Allow small wicks due to broker spread (e.g., 0.0001 for forex)
• History Limit: Number of bars to analyze (older candles are hidden)
• Visual Controls: Toggle labels, lines, and statistics table
• Color Customization: Adjust line colors for pending/revisited states
ALERTS:
Built-in alerts for wickless candle detection (green, red, or both).
Perfect for traders analyzing price inefficiencies, fair value gaps, and momentum-based support/resistance levels.
Interest Zones ScannerThis indicator automatically scans a user-defined price range (on current or higher timeframe) to detect and plot the strongest horizontal support/resistance zones based on validated price reactions. It intelligently identifies levels where price has repeatedly bounced without breaking for a specified number of bars, prioritizing high-probability reaction areas.
How It Works (Technical Methodology)
Range Calculation
The script determines the high/low range using a configurable method:
"Lookback Bars": User-defined number of bars (default 400) on the target timeframe.
"Fixed Start Date": Bars since a specified date (default dynamic).
Data is fetched via request.security() from a selectable timeframe (default current chart TF) for multi-timeframe alignment.
Auto Mode Scanning
When enabled:
Scans the entire range in small percentage steps (default 1.0%, adjustable down to 0.5%).
For each potential level, creates a thin volatility-adjusted zone (height % of price, default 0.07%).
Counts "valid hits": Instances where price touches the zone and holds (no break) for user-defined bars (default 10).
Break detection: Configurable "Close" (strict) or "Wick" (sensitive).
Assumes support/resistance direction based on close relative to zone center.
Level Selection and Filtering
Ranks candidates by hit count (highest first).
Applies minimum distance filter (% apart, default 8%) to avoid clustering.
Limits to user-defined max zones (default 9) for clean display.
Sorts final zones from low to high price.
Manual Mode Alternative
When auto disabled: Directly uses user-input percentages (e.g., classic Fibo levels like 23.6, 50, 61.8) applied to the range – no validation/scoring.
Zone Construction
Horizontal boxes centered on validated levels, with dynamic height (% of price).
Colored by position: Supply (above close, default light gray), Demand (below close, default cyan).
Optional full extension (both sides) or right-only.
Labeled with percentage from range low.
Dashboard and Visuals
Table (positionable) shows:
% Level, Exact Price, Hit Count (green if >3).
Header with validation details and lookback info.
Vertical line marks range start for reference.
How to Use
This scanner excels at finding statistically validated horizontal zones where price has shown respect – ideal for support/resistance, mean reversion, or breakout setups.
Auto Mode: Best for discovering hidden/non-obvious levels. Higher hit counts = stronger zones (expect reactions/retests).
Validation Bars: Increase (e.g., 20+) for stricter, higher-quality zones in trending markets; lower for more sensitive detection.
Min Distance: Higher % for fewer, separated zones; lower for denser grids.
Multi-Timeframe: Set target TF higher (e.g., Daily) for major structural levels on lower charts.
Supply Zones (Above Price): Potential resistance – shorts or take-profits.
Demand Zones (Below Price): Potential support – longs or stops below.
Confluence: Combine with volume, order blocks, or fibo for entries. Watch for multiple hits + confluence.
Manual Mode: Quick plotting of custom % (e.g., fibo retracements/extensions).
Fine-tune scan step smaller for precision (slower on large lookbacks) or larger for speed.

Kalman Hull Kijun [BackQuant]Kalman Hull Kijun
A trend baseline that merges three ideas into one clean overlay, Kalman filtering for noise control, Hull-style responsiveness, and a Kijun-like Donchian midline for structure and bias.
Context and lineage
This indicator sits in the same family as two related scripts:
Kalman Price Filter
This is the foundational building block. It introduces the Kalman filter concept, a state-estimation algorithm designed to infer an underlying “true” signal from noisy measurements, originally used in aerospace guidance and later adopted across robotics, economics, and markets.
Kalman Hull Supertrend
This is the original script made, which people loved. So it inspired me to create this one.
Kalman Hull Kijun uses the same core philosophy as the Supertrend variant, but instead of building a Supertrend band system, it produces a single structural baseline that behaves like a Kijun-style reference line.
What this indicator is trying to solve
Most trend baselines sit on a bad trade-off curve:
If you smooth hard, the line reacts late and misses turns.
If you react fast, the line whipsaws and tracks noise.
Kalman Hull Kijun is designed to land closer to the middle:
Cleaner than typical fast moving averages in chop.
More responsive than slow averages in directional phases.
More “structure aware” than pure averages because the baseline is range-derived (Kijun-like) after filtering.
Core idea in plain language
The plotted line is a Kijun-like baseline, but it is not built from raw candles directly.
High level flow:
Start with a chosen price stream (source input).
Reduce measurement noise using Kalman-style state estimation.
Add Hull-style responsiveness so the filtered stream stays usable for trend work.
Build a Kijun-like baseline by taking a Donchian midpoint of that filtered stream over the base period.
So the output is a single baseline that is intended to be:
Less jittery than a simple fast MA.
Less laggy than a slow MA.
More “range anchored” than standard smoothing lines.
How to read it
1) Trend and bias (the primary use)
Price above the baseline, bullish bias.
Price below the baseline, bearish bias.
Clean flips across the baseline are regime changes, especially when followed by a hold or retest.
2) Retests and dynamic structure
Treat the baseline like dynamic S/R rather than a signal generator:
In uptrends, pullbacks that respect the baseline can act as continuation context.
In downtrends, reclaim failures around the baseline can act as continuation context.
Repeated back-and-forth around the line usually means compression or chop, not clean trend.
3) Extension vs compression (using the fill)
The fill is meant to communicate “distance” and “pressure” visually:
Large separation between price and baseline suggests expansion.
Price compressing into the baseline suggests rebalancing and decision points.
Inputs and what they change
Kijun Base Period
Controls the structural memory of the baseline.
Higher values track broader swings and reduce flips.
Lower values track tighter swings and react faster.
Kalman Price Source
Defines what data the filter is estimating.
Close is usually the cleanest default.
HL2 often “feels” smoother as an average price.
High/Low sources can become more reactive and less stable depending on the market.
Measurement Noise
Think of this as the main smoothness knob:
Higher values generally produce a calmer filtered stream.
Lower values generally produce a faster, more reactive stream.
Process Noise
Think of this as adaptability:
Higher values adapt faster to changing conditions but can get twitchy.
Lower values adapt slower but stay stable.
Plotting and UI (what you see on chart)
1) Adaptive line coloring
Baseline turns bullish color when price is above it.
Baseline turns bearish color when price is below it.
This makes the state readable without extra panels.
2) Gradient “energy” fill
Bull fill appears between price and baseline when above.
Bear fill appears between price and baseline when below.
The goal is clarity on separation and control, not decoration.
3) Rim effect
A subtle band around price that only appears on the active side.
Helps highlight directional control without hiding candles.
4) Candle painting (optional)
Candles can be colored to match the current bias.
Useful for scanning many charts quickly.
Disable if you prefer raw candles.
Alerts
Long state alert when price is above the baseline.
Short state alert when price is below the baseline.
Best used as a bias or regime notification, not a standalone entry trigger.
Where it fits in a workflow
This is a context layer, it pairs well with:
Market structure tools, BOS/MSB, OBs, FVGs.
Momentum triggers that need a regime filter.
Mean reversion tools that need “do not fade trends” context.
Limitations
No baseline eliminates chop whipsaws, tuning only manages the trade-off.
Settings should not be copy pasted across assets without checking behavior.
This does not forecast, it estimates and smooths state, then expresses it as a structural baseline.

QuantLabs MASM Correlation TableThe Market is a graph. See the flows:
The QuantLabs MASM is not a standard correlation table. It is an Alpha-Grade Scanner architected to reveal the hidden "hydraulic" relationships between global macro assets in real-time.
Rebuilt from the ground up for Version 3, this engine pushes the absolute limits of the Pine Script™ runtime. It utilizes a proprietary Logarithmic Math Engine, Symmetric Compute Optimization, and a futuristic "Ghost Mode" interface to deliver a 15x15 real-time correlation matrix with zero lag.
Under the Hood: The Quant Architecture
We stripped away standard libraries to build a lean, high-performance engine designed for institutional-grade accuracy.
1. Alpha Math Engine (Logarithmic Returns) Most tools calculate correlation based on Price, which generates spurious signals (e.g., "Everything is correlated in a bull run").
The Solution: Our engine computes Logarithmic Returns (log(close/close )) by default. This measures the correlation of change (Velocity & Vector), not price levels.
The Result: A mathematically rigorous view of statistical relationships that filters out the noise of general market drift.
Dual-Core: Toggle seamlessly between "Alpha Mode" (Log Returns) for verified stats and "Visual Mode" (Price) for trend alignment.
Calculation Modes: Pearson (Standard), Euclidean (Distance), Cosine (Vector), Manhattan (Grid).
2. Symmetric Compute Optimization Calculating a 15x15 matrix requires evaluating 225 unique relationships per bar, which often crashes memory limits.
The Fix: The V3 Engine utilizes Symmetric Logic, recognizing that Correlation(A, B) == Correlation(B, A).
The Gain: By computing only the lower triangle of the matrix and mirroring pointers to the upper triangle, we reduced computational load by 50%, ensuring a lightning-fast data feed even on lower timeframes.
3. Context-Aware "Ghost Mode" The UI is designed for professional traders who need focus, not clutter.
Smart Detection: The matrix automatically detects your current chart's Ticker ID. If you are trading QQQ, the matrix will visually highlight the Nas100 row and column, making them opaque and bright while dimming the rest.
Dynamic Transparency: Irrelevant data ("Noise" < 0.3 correlation) fades into the background. Only significant "Alpha Signals" (> 0.7) glow with full Neon Saturation.
Key Features
Dominant Flow Scanner: The matrix scans all 105 unique pairs every tick and prints the #1 Strongest Correlation at the bottom of the pane (e.g., DOMINANT FLOW: Bitcoin ↔ Nas100 ).
Streak Counter: A "Stubbornness" metric that tracks how many consecutive days a strong correlation has persisted. Instantly identify if a move is a "flash event" or a "structural trend."
Neon Palette: Proprietary color mapping using Electric Blue (+1.0) for lockstep correlation and Deep Red (-1.0) for inverse hedging.
Usage Guide
Placement: Best viewed in a bottom pane (Footer).
Assets: Pre-loaded with the Essential 15 Macro Drivers (Indices, BTC, Gold, Oil, Rates, FX, Key Sectors). Fully editable via settings (Ticker|Name).
Reading the Grid:
🔵 Bright Blue: Assets moving in lockstep (Risk-On).
🔴 Bright Red: Assets moving perfectly opposite (Hedge/Risk-Off).
⚫ Faded/Black: No statistical relationship (Decoupled).
Key Improvements Made:
Formatting: Added clear bullet points and bolding to make it scannable.
Clarity: Clarified the "Logarithmic Returns" section to explain why it matters (Velocity vs. Price Levels).
Tone: Maintained the "high-tech/quant" vibe but removed slightly clunky phrases like "spurious signals" (unless you prefer that academic tone, in which case I left it in as it fits the persona).
Structure: Grouped the "Modes" under the Math Engine for better logic.

CCI Standard DeviationCCI Standard Deviation – Asymmetric Volatility-Adjusted Trend Filter (CCI SD)
The Commodity Channel Index (CCI), created by Donald Lambert in 1980, measures how far the typical price deviates from its statistical average to identify cyclical momentum and trend strength.
The standard formula is:
CCI = (Typical Price − SMA(Typical Price, n)) / (0.015 × Mean Deviation)
where Typical Price = (High + Low + Close)/3.
CCI is unbounded and centered around zero: sustained readings above zero indicate bullish momentum, below zero bearish. Classic interpretations often use zero-line crosses or fixed levels (±100, ±200, ±250), but these can be unreliable when CCI volatility changes across market regimes.
This indicator was developed to create a more disciplined trend-following tool that aligns with my core risk principle: “always protect to the downside.”
Starting from the standard CCI zero-line concept for trend direction, I experimented with standard deviation bands to make the oscillator volatility-adjusted. I then applied deliberate asymmetry: requiring the lower 1σ envelope (CCI − stdev) to cross above a positive threshold for bullish confirmation (high-probability entry only in robust trends), while exiting immediately on any raw CCI weakness below a negative threshold (quick downside protection). User inputs for both thresholds were added to allow fine-tuning and adaptability across different assets and timeframes.
An optional DEMA-smoothed version of the lower envelope provides additional clarity when desired.
Extreme zones
raw CCI ±240 and lower envelope > 200 or < –200 - are highlighted with background shading to flag rare acceleration or capitulation phases.
How it works
Standard CCI calculated on typical price (default length 38).
Rolling standard deviation of the CCI itself (default length 13) measures the oscillator’s recent volatility.
Lower envelope = CCI − stdev (dn).
Optional DEMA smoothing (default length 12) can be toggled.
Trend logic:
Bullish regime only when lower envelope
→ Long Threshold (default +10)
→ statistical proof of strength
Bearish/neutral immediately when raw CCI
→ Short Threshold (default –25)
→ fast downside protection
Origin and development
The indicator emerged from wanting a cleaner, more reliable CCI for trend direction. After testing volatility-adjusted versions, the asymmetric design proved superior:
it enters only high-conviction uptrends and exits rapidly on weakness, significantly reducing whipsaws while preserving trend capture.
Parameters were optimized through extensive backtests on major assets (BTC, ETH, SOL and many more Cryptos; Magnificent 7 stocks, QQQ, SPX, gold).
The defaults were selected for the best average Sortino ratio and lowest maximum drawdown across this broad universe, ensuring robustness and avoiding single-asset overfitting.
How to use it
Green triangle below bar
→ lower envelope crosses above Long Threshold
→ high-conviction bullish trend confirmed
→ enter or add to longs
Magenta triangle above bar
→ CCI crosses below Short Threshold
→ exit longs or go cash/short
While lower envelope remains above Long Threshold
→ hold bullish positions
Extreme background shading (dn >200 or CCI ±240)
→ rare high-attention zones (potential acceleration or exhaustion)
Recommended defaults
CCI length: 38
SD length: 13
Long threshold: +10
Short threshold: –25
Optional MA length: 12 (DEMA of lower envelope)
All visual elements (bar coloring, signals, background, smoothed line) are toggleable for personal preference.
This indicator is designed as a trend-strength and risk-management filter and is not intended as a standalone trading system.
