Source CorrelationIn this small indicator I make it possible for the user to set two different input sources. Then, the indicator displays the correlation of these two input sources. It's a very small script, but I think it could be helpful to somebody to find uncorrelated indicators for his trading strategy. To use uncorrelated indicators is in general recommended.

Rainbow IndicatorName of the indicator: Rainbow indicator
A brief description of the indicator:
Using this indicator, you can see the "margin of safety" for opening a position in shares of fundamentally strong companies with an acceptable P/E level, as well as the price range for closing a position.
The background to the creation of the indicator:
I got the idea to create this indicator thanks to the concept of the "margin of safety", which was invented by the father of value investing - Benjamin Graham. According to his idea, it is reasonable to buy shares of a company only when the price offered by the market is lower than the "intrinsic value" calculated on the basis of financial statements. The value of this difference is the "margin of safety”. At the same time, the indicator does not copy Graham's idea but develops it relying on my own methodology.
So, according to Graham, the "margin of safety" is a good discount to the intrinsic value of the company. That is, if a company's stock is trading at prices that are well below the company's intrinsic value (on a per-share basis), it's a good opportunity to consider buying it. In this case, you will have a certain margin of safety in case the company is in financial distress and its stock price goes down. Accordingly, the greater the discount, the better.
When it comes to the intrinsic value of a company, there are many approaches to determining it - from calculating the Price-to-book value financial ratio to the discounted cash flow method. As for my approach, I am not trying to find the cherished intrinsic value, but I am trying to understand how fundamentally strong the company is in front of me, and in how many years the investment in it will pay off. To determine fundamental strength, I use the appropriate Fundamental Strength Indicator . To estimate the payback period, I use the P/E ratio (*). If I am satisfied with both of these indicators, I move on to the Rainbow Indicator.
(*) If you want to learn more about the P/E ratio, I suggest reading my two articles on TradingView:
Price / Earnings: Interpretation #1
Price/Earnings: amazing interpretation #2
Indicator calculation methodology:
The Rainbow indicator starts with a simple moving average of one year (this is the thick red line in the center). Hereinafter a year will mean the last 252 trading days.
Applying a moving average of this length - is a good way to smooth out sharp price fluctuations which can happen during a year as much as possible, keeping the trend direction as much as possible. Thus, the moving average becomes for me the center of fluctuations of the imaginary pendulum of the market price.
Then the deviations are calculated from the center of fluctuations. To do this, a certain amount of earnings per share is subtracted from and added to the moving average. This is the diluted EPS of the last year.
Deviations with a "-" sign form the Lower Rainbow of four colors:
- The blue spectrum of the lower rainbow begins with a deflection of -4 EPS and ends with a deflection of -8 EPS.
- Green spectrum of the lower rainbow begins with a deflection of -8 EPS and ends with a deflection of -16 EPS.
- The orange spectrum of the lower rainbow begins with a deflection of -16 EPS and ends with a deflection of -32 EPS.
- Red spectrum of the lower rainbow begins with a deflection of -32 EPS and goes to infinity.
The Lower Rainbow is used to determine the price ranges that can be considered for buying stocks. It is in the spectra of the Lower Rainbow that the very "margin of safety" according to my methodology is located. The Lower Rainbow has the boundaries between the spectra as a solid line . And only the red spectrum of the Lower Rainbow has only one boundary.
Deviations with a "+" sign form the Upper Rainbow of four similar colors:
- The red spectrum of the upper rainbow begins with a deflection of 0 EPS and ends with a deflection of +4 EPS.
- The orange spectrum of the upper rainbow begins with a deflection of +4 EPS and ends with a deflection of +8 EPS.
- Green spectrum top rainbow begins with a deflection of +8 EPS and ends with a deflection of +16 EPS.
- The blue spectrum of the upper rainbow begins with a deflection of +16 EPS and goes to infinity.
The Upper Rainbow is used to determine the price ranges that can be considered for selling stocks already purchased. The top rainbow has boundaries between the spectra in the form of crosses . And only the blue spectrum of the upper rainbow has only one boundary.
The presence of the Empty Area (the size of 4 EPS) above the Lower Rainbow creates some asymmetry between the two rainbows - the Lower Rainbow looks wider than the Upper Rainbow. This asymmetry is deliberate because the market tends to fall much faster and deeper than it grows . Therefore, a wider Lower Rainbow is conducive to buying stocks at a good discount during a period of massive "sell-offs.
The situation, when the Lower Rainbow is below the center of fluctuations (the thick red line) and the Upper Rainbow, is above the center of fluctuations is called an Obverse . It is only possible to buy a stock in an Obverse situation .
The situation when the Lower Rainbow is above the center of fluctuations and the Upper Rainbow is below the center of fluctuations is called Reverse . In this situation, the stock cannot be considered for purchase , according to my approach.
Selling a previously purchased stock is possible in both situations: Reverse and Obverse. After loading the indicator, you can see a hint next to the closing price - Reverse or Obverse now.
Due to the fact that the size of the deviation from the center of fluctuation depends on the size of the diluted EPS, several important conclusions can be made:
- The Obverse situation is characteristic of companies that show a profit over the last year.
- The Reverse situation is typical for companies that show a loss over the last year.
- An increase in the width of both rainbows in the Obverse situation tells us about an increase in profits for the company.
- A decrease in the width of both rainbows in the Obverse situation tells us about a decrease in the company's profits.
- An increase in the width of both rainbows in the Reverse situation tells us about an increase in the company's losses.
- A decrease in the width of both rainbows in the Reverse situation tells us about a decrease in the company's losses.
- The higher the profit level of the company, the greater your "margin of safety" should be. This will provide the necessary margin of safety in case you go into a cycle of declining financial results. The appropriate width of the Lower Rainbow will just create this "margin".
- Increased profits in the company (after buying its stock) will allow you to stay in position longer by widening the Upper Rainbow.
- A decrease in profits in the company (after buying its stock) will allow you to close your position more quickly by narrowing the Upper Rainbow.
Conditions for opening and closing positions:
So, the Lower Rainbow has four differently colored spectra: blue, green, orange, and red. Each one highlights the desired range of prices acceptable for buying in an Obverse situation. The blue spectrum is upper with respect to the green spectrum, and the green spectrum is lower with respect to the blue spectrum, etc.
- If the current price is in the Blue Spectrum of the Lower Rainbow, that is a reason to consider that company for buying the first portion (*) of the stock.
- If the current price has fallen below (into the Green Spectrum of the Lower Rainbow), that is a reason to consider this company to buy a second portion of the stock.
- If the current price has fallen below (into the Orange Spectrum of the Lower Rainbow), it is a reason to consider this company to buy a third portion of the stock.
- If the current price has fallen below (into the Red Spectrum of the Lower Rainbow), that is a reason to consider that company to buy a fourth portion of the stock.
(*) The logic of the Rainbow Indicator implies that no more than 4 portions of one company's stock can be purchased. One portion refers to the number of shares you can consider buying at the current price (depending on your account size and personal diversification ratio - see information below).
The Upper Rainbow also has four differently colored spectra: blue, green, orange, and red. Each of them highlights the appropriate range of prices acceptable for closing an open position.
- If the current price is in the red spectrum of the Upper Rainbow, I close one portion of an open position bought in the red spectrum of the Lower Rainbow.
- If the current price is in the orange spectrum of the Upper Rainbow, I close one portion of an open position bought in the orange spectrum of the Lower Rainbow.
- If the current price is in the green spectrum of the Upper Rainbow, I close one portion of an open position bought in the green spectrum of the Lower Rainbow.
- If the current price is in the blue spectrum of the Upper Rainbow, I close one portion of an open position bought in the blue spectrum of the Lower Rainbow.
This position-closing logic applies to both the Obverse and Reverse situations. In both cases, the position is closed in portions in four steps. However, there are 3 exceptions to this rule when it is possible to close an entire position in whole rather than in parts:
- If there is a Reverse situation and the current price is above the thick red line.
- If I decide to invest in another company and I do not have enough available cash to purchase the necessary number of portions.
- If I find out about events that pose a real threat to the further existence of the company (for example, a bankruptcy filing), I can close the position earlier, without waiting for the price to hit the corresponding Upper Rainbow spectrum.
So, the basic scenario of opening and closing a position assumes the gradual purchase of shares in 4 stages and their gradual sale in 4 stages. However, there is a situation where one of the stages is skipped in the case of buying shares and in the case of selling them. For example, because the Fundamental Strength Indicator and the P/E ratio became acceptable for me only at a certain stage (spectrum) or the moment was missed for a transaction due to technical reasons. In such cases, I buy or sell more than one portion of a stock in the spectrum I am in. The number of additional portions will depend on the number of missed spectra. For example, if I have no position in the stock of the company in question, all conditions for buying the stock have been met, and the current price is in the orange spectrum of the Lower Rainbow, I can buy three portions of the stock at once (for the blue, green, and orange spectrum). I will sell these three portions in the corresponding Upper Rainbow spectra (orange, green, and blue). However, if for some reason the orange spectrum of the Upper Rainbow was missed, and the current price is in the green spectrum - I will sell two portions of the three (in the green spectrum). I will sell the last, third portion only when the price reaches the blue spectrum of the Upper Rainbow.
The Rainbow Indicator also helps calculate the number of shares that can be considered for purchase at the current price position in the Lower Rainbow spectra. To do this, you need to go to the indicator settings.
+ Cash in - Cash out +/- Closed profit/loss + Dividends - Fees - Taxes
Here I indicate the amount of funds deposited to my account, withdrawn from it, profit/loss on closed positions, dividends credited to the account, and taxes deducted from the account.
Diversification coefficient
The diversification coefficient determines how diversified I want my portfolio to be. For example, a diversification coefficient of 20 means that I plan to buy 20 share portions of different companies, but no more than 4 portions per company (based on the number of Lower Rainbow spectra).
The cost of purchased shares of this company (fees excluded)
Here I specify the amount of already purchased shares of the company in question in the currency of my portfolio. For example, if at this point in time, I have purchased 1000 shares at $300 per share, and my portfolio is expressed in $, I enter - $300,000.
The cost of all purchased shares in the portfolio (fees excluded)
Here I enter the amount of all purchased shares for all companies in the currency of my portfolio (without commissions spent on the purchase). This is necessary to determine the amount of available funds available to purchase shares.
After entering all the necessary data, I go to the checkbox, by checking it I confirm that the company in question has been studied with the Fundamental Strength Indicator and the P/E ratio, and their values are satisfactory to me. No calculation is performed without the checkbox checked. This is done intentionally because the application of the Rainbow Indicator for stock acquisition purposes is possible only after studying the Fundamental Strength of the company and an acceptable P/E value.
Next, I click "Ok" and get the calculation in the form of a table on the left.
Free cash in the portfolio
This is the amount of free cash available to purchase stocks. Please note that the price of the stock and the funds in your portfolio must be denominated in the same currency. On TradingView, you can choose which currency to display the stock price in.
Cash amount for one portion
The amount of cash needed to buy one portion of a stock. Depends on the diversification ratio entered.
Potential portions amount
Number of portions, available for purchase at the current price. Can be a fractional number.
Cash amount to buy
The amount of cash needed to buy portions available for purchase at the current price.
Shares amount to buy
Number of shares in portions available for purchase at the current price.
The table also contains additional information in the form of the current value of the company's market capitalization and P/E ratio.
Mandatory requirements for using the indicator:
- works only on a daily timeframe;
- the indicator is only applicable to shares of public companies;
- quarterly income statements for the last year are required;
- an acceptable for you P/E ratio is required to consider the company's stock for purchase;
- the Rainbow Indicator only applies in tandem with the Fundamental Strength Indicator. To consider a company's stock for purchase, you need confirmation that the company is fundamentally strong.
What is the value of the Rainbow Indicator?
- clearly demonstrates a company's profit and loss dynamics;
- shows the price ranges that can be used to open and close a position;
- takes into account the principle of gradual increase and decrease of a position;
- allows calculating the number of shares to be purchased;
- shows the current value of the P/E ratio;
- shows the current capitalization of the company.
Example:
As an example, consider the situation with NVIDIA Corporation stock (ticker - NVDA).
September 02, 2022:
Fundamental Strength Indicator - 11.46 (fundamentally strong company).
P/E - 39.58 (acceptable to me).
Current Price - $136.47 (is in the Orange Spectrum of the Lower Rainbow).
Situation - Obverse.
The basic conditions for buying this company's stock are met. The Rainbow Indicator settings are filled out as follows:
The table to the left of the Rainbow Indicator shows how many shares are possible to buy in the Orange Spectrum of Lower Rainbow at the current price = 10 shares. This corresponds to 2.73 portions.
To give you an example, I buy 10 shares of NVDA at $136.47 per share.
October 14, 2022:
NVDA's stock price has moved into the red spectrum of the Lower Rainbow.
The Fundamental Strength Indicator is 10.81 (fundamentally strong company).
P/E is 35.80 (an acceptable level for me).
Current Price - $112.27 (is in the Red Spectrum of the Lower Rainbow).
Situation - Obverse.
The basic conditions for buying this company's stock are still met. The Rainbow Indicator settings are populated as follows:
The table to the left of the Rainbow Indicator shows how many shares are possible to buy in the Lower Rainbow Red Spectrum at the current price (5 shares). This corresponds to 1.12 portions.
To give you an example, I buy 5 shares of NVDA at $112.27 per share. A total of 3.85 portions were purchased, which is the maximum possible number of portions at the current price level. The remainder in the form of 0.15 portions can be purchased only at a price level below $75 per share.
January 23, 2023:
The price of NVDA stock passes through the red spectrum of the Upper Rainbow and stops in the orange spectrum. As an example, I sell 5 shares bought in the red spectrum of the Lower Rainbow, for example at $180 per share (+60%). And also a third of the shares bought in the orange spectrum, 3 shares out of 10, for example at $190 a share (+39%). That leaves me with 7 shares.
January 27, 2023:
NVDA's stock price has continued to rise and has moved into the green spectrum of the Upper Rainbow. This is a reason to close some of the remaining 7 shares. I divide the 7 shares by 2 and round up to a whole number - that's 4 shares. For my example, I sell 4 shares at $199 a share (+46%). Now I am left with 3 shares of stock.
February 02, 2023:
The price of NVDA stock moves into the blue spectrum of the Upper Rainbow, and I close the remaining 3 shares, for example, at $216 per share (+58%). The entire position in NVDA stock is closed.
As you can see, the Fundamental Strength Indicator and the P/E ratio were not used in the process of closing the position. Decisions were made only on the basis of the Rainbow Indicator.
As another example, let's look at the situation with the shares of Papa Johns International, Inc. (ticker PZZA).
November 01, 2017:
Fundamental Strength Indicator - 13.22 points (fundamentally strong company).
P/E - 21.64 (acceptable to me).
Current Price - $62.26 (is in the blue spectrum of the Lower Rainbow).
Situation - Obverse.
The basic conditions for buying shares of this company are met. The settings of the Rainbow Indicator are filled as follows:
The table to the left of the Rainbow Indicator shows how many shares are possible to buy in the Lower Rainbow Blue Spectrum at the current price - 8 shares. This corresponds to 1 portion.
To give you an example, I buy 8 shares of PZZA at a price of $62.26.
August 8, 2018:
PZZA's share price has moved into the green spectrum of the Lower Rainbow.
The Fundamental Strength Indicator is a 9.83 (fundamentally strong company).
P/E is 16.07 (an acceptable level for me).
Current Price - $38.94 (is in the green spectrum of the Lower Rainbow).
Situation - Obverse.
The basic conditions for buying shares of this company are still met. The Rainbow Indicator settings are populated as follows:
The table to the left of the Rainbow Indicator shows how many shares are possible to buy in the Lower Rainbow Green Spectrum at the current price - 12 shares. This corresponds to 0.93 portions.
To give you an example, I buy 12 shares of PZZA at a price of $38.94. A total of 1.93 portions were purchased.
October 31, 2018:
PZZA's stock price moves into the Upper Rainbow red spectrum and is $54.54 per share. Since I did not have any portions purchased in the Lower Rainbow red spectrum, there is no closing part of the position.
February 01, 2019:
After a significant decline, PZZA's stock price moves into the orange spectrum of the Lower Rainbow at $38.51 per share. However, I am not taking any action because the company's Fundamental Strength on this day is 5.02 (a fundamentally mediocre company).
March 27, 2019:
PZZA's stock price passes the green and blue spectrum of the Upper Rainbow. This allowed to close the previously purchased 12 shares, for example, at $50 a share (+28%) and 8 shares at $50.38 a share (-19%).
Closing the entire position at once was facilitated by a significant narrowing in both rainbows. As we now know, this indicates a decline in earnings at the company.
Risk disclaimer:
When working with the Rainbow Indicator, keep in mind that the release of the Income statement (from which diluted EPS is derived) occurs some time after the end of the fiscal quarter. This means that the new relevant data for the calculation will only appear after the publication of the new statement. In this regard, there may be a significant change in the Rainbow Indicator after the publication of the new statement. The magnitude of this change will depend on both the content of the new statement and the number of days between the end of the financial quarter and the publication date of the statement. Prior to the publication date of the new statement, the latest actual data will be used for the calculations. Also, once again, please note that the Rainbow Indicator can only be used in tandem with the Fundamental Strength Indicator and the P/E ratio. Without these additional filters, the Rainbow Indicator loses its intended meaning.
The Rainbow Indicator allows you to determine the price ranges for opening and closing a position gradually, based on available data and the methodology I created. You can also use it to calculate the number of shares you can consider buying taking into account the position you already have. However, this Indicator and/or its description and examples cannot be used as the sole reason for buying or selling stocks or for any other action or inaction related to stocks.
Fundamental Strength IndicatorName of the indicator: Fundamental Strength Indicator
A brief description of the indicator:
Using this indicator, you can evaluate a company in terms of the strength of its financial performance and see how that score has changed over time.
The background to the creation of the indicator:
The main idea that inspired me to create this indicator is: " Even if you buy just 1 share of a company, treat it like buying the whole business ". However, when I need to evaluate the business of thousands of public companies traded on exchanges, there is an objective difficulty: it is very time-consuming. To solve this problem, I had to create a scoring system of the fundamental analysis of the company, embodied in this indicator.
What the indicator looks like:
- First, it is a Histogram with bars of three colors: green, orange, and red. The width of the histogram depends on the depth of data from the company statements. The more historical data, the wider the histogram over time.
The green color of the bars means that the company has been showing excellent financial results by the sum of the factors in that time period. According to my terminology, the company has a " strong foundation " during this period. Green corresponds to values between 8 and 15 (where 15 is the maximum possible positive value on the sum of the factors).
The orange color of the bars means that according to the sum of factors during this period the company demonstrated mediocre financial results, i.e. it has a " mediocre foundation ". Orange color corresponds to values from 1 to 7.
The red color of the bars means that according to the sum of factors in this period of time, the company demonstrated weak financial results, i.e. it has a " weak foundation ". The red color corresponds to values from -15 to 0 (where -15 is the maximum possible negative value on the sum of factors).
- Second, this is the Blue Line , which is the moving average of the Histogram bars over the last year (*). Averaging over the year is necessary in order to obtain a weighted estimate that is not subject to medium-term fluctuations. It is by the last value of the blue line that the actual Fundamental Strength of the company is determined.
(*) The last year means the last 252 trading days, including the current trading day.
- Third, these are operating, investing, and financing Cash Flows expressed in Diluted net income. These flows look like thick green, orange, and red lines, respectively.
- Fourth, this is the Table on the left, which shows the latest actual value of the Fundamental Strength and Cash Flows.
Indicator settings:
In the indicator settings, I can disable the visibility of the Histogram, Blue Line, Cash Flows (each separately), and Table. It helps to study each of the parameters separately. It is also possible to change the color, transparency, and thickness of lines.
Mandatory requirements for using the indicator:
- works only on a daily timeframe;
- only applies to shares of public companies;
- company financial statements for the last 4 quarters and more are required;
- it is necessary to have the data from the Balance sheet, Income statement, and Cash flow statement, required for the calculation.
If at least one component required for calculating the Fundamental Strength is missing, the message " no data to calculate the Fundamental Strength correctly " is displayed. In the same case, but for the operating cash flow, the message " no data to calculate the Operating Cash Flow correctly " is shown, and similarly for other flows.
What is the value of the Fundamental Strength Indicator:
- allows for a quantitative assessment of a company's financial performance in points (from -15 to 15 points);
- allows you to visually track how the company's financial performance has changed (positively/negatively) over time;
- allows to visually trace the movement of main cash flows over time;
- speeds up the process of selecting companies for your shortlist (if you are focused on financial results when selecting companies);
- allows you to protect yourself from investing in companies with weak and mediocre fundamentals.
Indicator calculation methodology:
Guided by the "Treat stock investments as buying the whole business" approach, you can imagine what kind of business an investor is interested in owning and simultaneously determine the input parameters for calculating the indicator.
(!) Here it is important to emphasize that the idea of a benchmark business for investment is a subjective notion, so be sure to check whether it coincides with your own opinion.
For me, a benchmark business is:
- A business that operates efficiently without diminishing the return on shareholders' investment. To assess the efficiency and profitability of a business, I use the following financial ratios (*): Diluted EPS and Return on Equity (ROE). The first two parameters for calculating the indicator are there.
- A business that scales sales and optimizes its costs. From this point of view, the following financial ratios are suitable: Gross margin, Operating expense ratio, and Total revenue. Plus three other metrics.
- A business that turns goods/services into cash quickly and does not fall behind on payments to suppliers. The following financial ratios will fit here: Days payable, Days sales outstanding, and Inventory to revenue ratio. These are three more metrics.
- A business that does not resort to significant accounts payable and shows financial strength. Here I use the following financial ratios: Current ratio, Interest coverage, and Debt to revenue ratio. These are the last three parameters.
(*) If you want to learn more about these financial ratios, I suggest reading my two articles on TradingView:
Financial ratios: digesting them together
What can financial ratios tell us?
Next, each of the parameters is assigned a certain number of points based on its last value or the position of that value relative to the annual maximum and minimum.
For example, if the Current ratio:
- greater than or equal to 2 (+1 point);
- less than or equal to 1 (-1 point);
- more than 1 but less than 2 (0 points).
Or for example, if Diluted EPS:
- near or above the annual high (+2 points);
- near the annual minimum and below (-2 points);
- between the annual maximum and minimum (0 points).
And so on with each of the parameters.
As a result, the maximum number of points a company can score is 15 points. The minimum number of points a company can score is -15 points. These levels are marked with horizontal dotted lines: the green line is for the maximum value, and the red line is for the minimum.
I track the number of points for each day of a company's life on a three-color Histogram. The resulting average value for the last year is on the Blue Line. For me, it is the last value of the Blue Line that determines - this is the actual Fundamental Strength of the company.
The business valuation model I created is more suitable for companies that produce goods or services, and where tangible assets play a significant role in the business. For example, when analyzing companies in the financial sector, you may see the message "no data to calculate the Fundamental Strength correctly". Many of them may simply be missing data that is used as input for the calculation: Inventory to revenue ratio, Days sales outstanding, etc.
Examples:
Below I will evaluate various companies using the Fundamental Strength Indicator.
Tesla, Inc.
The indicator shows that since 2020, Tesla Inc. has been steadily increasing its Fundamental Strength (from 3.27 in Q1 2020 to 12.79 in Q1 2023). This is noticeable both by the color change of the Histogram from orange to green and by the rising Blue Line. If you look in detail at what has been happening with the financials during this time, it's clear what meaningful work the company has done. Revenues have almost quadrupled. Earnings per share have increased 134 times. At the same time, total debt to revenue fell almost 10 times.
Keurig Dr Pepper Inc.
The company, formed in 2018 by the merger of Keurig Green Mountain and Dr Pepper Snapple Group, has failed to deliver outstanding financial results, causing its Fundamental Strength to fall from 4.63 in Q1 2018 to -0.53 in Q1 2023. During this period, the drop in diluted earnings per share was accompanied by higher debt and deteriorating liquidity.
Costco Wholesale Corporation
Wholesaler Costco has been surprisingly stable in its financial performance and with steady growth in both earnings and revenue. This is the reason why the Histogram bars are exceptionally green throughout the calculation of the indicator. The Fundamental Strength has not changed in three years and is high at 11 points.
As an additional filter, for example, when comparing two companies where all other conditions are equal - I use the dynamics of Cash Flows expressed in Diluted net income (*). These are the thick green, orange, and red lines over the Histogram.
Why do I use income as a unit of measure of Cash Flows? Because it is a good way to make the scale of indicator values the same for companies from different countries, with different currencies. It also allows you to use a single value scale for both Cash Flows and Fundamental Strength.
(*) If you want to learn more about Cash Flows, I suggest reading my two articles on TradingView:
Cash flow statement or Three great rivers
Cash flow vibrations
So, an additional filter shows the dynamics of Cash Flows over time.
To interpret the dynamics of Cash Flows, I pay attention to the following patterns:
- How the cash flows are positioned in relation to each other;
- In which zone each of the cash flows is located - in the positive or negative;
- What is the trend of each of the cash flows;
- How volatile each of the cash flows is.
As an example, let's look at several companies in order to interpret the dynamics of their Cash Flows.
John B. Sanfilippo & Son, Inc.
This is the most ideal situation for me: operating cash flow (green line) is above the other cash flows, investment cash flow (orange line) is near zero and practically unchanged, and financial cash flow (red line) is consistently below zero. This picture shows that the company lives off its operating cash flow, does not increase its debt, does not spend a substantial amount of money on expensive purchases, and retains (does not sell off) assets.
Parker Hannifin Corporation
With stable operating cash flow (green line), the company implements investment programs by raising additional funding. This is noticeable due to an increase in financial cash flow (red line) and a simultaneous decrease in investment cash flow (orange line) with a significant deepening into negative areas. Apparently, there is not enough operating cash flow to realize the planned investments. One has to wonder how sustainable a company can be if it invests in its development using borrowed funds without a subsequent increase in operating cash flow.
Schlumberger N. V.
The chaotic intertwining of cash flows outside of the Fundamental Strength range (-15 to 15) is indicative of the company's rich life, but to me, it is an indicator of high riskiness of its actions. And as we can see, Fundamental Strength has only begun to strengthen in the last year, when the external appearance of cash flow has normalized.
Risk disclaimer:
When working with the Fundamental Strength Indicator and the additional filter in the form of Cash Flows, you should understand that the publication of the Balance sheet, Income statement, and Cash flow statement takes place sometime after the end of the financial quarter. This means that new relevant data for the calculation will only appear after the publication of the new statements. In this regard, there may be a significant change in the values of the Indicator after the publication of new statements. The magnitude of this change will depend both on the content of the new statements and on the number of days between the end of the financial quarter and the publication date of the statements. Until the date of publication of the new statements, the latest relevant data will be used for calculations.
I would like to draw your attention to the fact that the calculation of Fundamental Strength and Cash Flows requires the availability of data for all parameters of the valuation model . It uses data that is exclusively available on TradingView (there is no reconciliation with other sources). If at least one parameter is missing, I switch to another company's analysis to continue using the indicator.
Thus, the Fundamental Strength Indicator and an additional filter in the form of Cash Flows make it possible to evaluate the financial results of the company based on the available data and the methodology I created. A simple visualization in the form of a three-color Histogram, a Blue line, and three thick Cash Flow lines significantly reduces the time for selecting fundamentally strong companies that fit the criteria of the selected model. However, this Indicator and/or its description and/or examples cannot be used as the sole reason for buying or selling stocks or for any other action or inaction related to stocks.
ViPlay Signal demo versionViPlay Signal is a trading indicator designed for the TradingView platform that generates buy and sell signals based on a combination of technical indicators. The indicator uses two different Moving Averages, the Market Range Oscillator (MRO), and the Williams Percent Range (WPR) to provide traders with a comprehensive set of tools for identifying potential entry and exit points, confirming trends, and managing risk.
The Moving Averages used in the indicator are the 50-period and 200-period Simple Moving Averages (SMA) of the closing price, which are widely used in technical analysis to identify trends and support/resistance levels. The Market Range Oscillator (MRO) is a proprietary indicator that measures the range of the market, which can help identify extreme market conditions. The MRO is used to determine buy and sell signals, with two different calculations performed to identify each type of signal.
The Williams Percent Range (WPR) is a momentum indicator that helps traders identify overbought and oversold conditions in the market. By using the WPR in combination with the Moving Averages and the MRO, the ViPlay Signal indicator can provide more accurate and reliable signals to traders.
The indicator allows users to select a strategy from a dropdown menu that includes BTC 1m, 3m, 15m, 4H, and LTC 3m, ideal 5m, and 15m super. The values of some of the parameters change based on the selected strategy, allowing traders to customize the indicator to their specific needs.
The ViPlay Signal indicator plots buy and sell signals on the chart as labels with arrows pointing up or down to indicate the direction of the trade. A green arrow represents a buy signal, and a red arrow represents a sell signal. The chart is clean and easy to read, with complete symbol/timeframe and script name information provided.
In summary, the ViPlay Signal indicator is a powerful and customizable tool for traders looking to improve their trading performance. The indicator provides a comprehensive set of technical analysis tools, including Moving Averages, the MRO, and the WPR, to help traders identify potential trading opportunities and manage risk.
Andromeda Indicator [Loxx]Andromeda Indicator is a lower timeframe, high-leverage scalping indicator tuned to Cryptocurrency futures trading. It works by scanning for volatility spikes and then calculation the likelihood that those spikes will break market structure to the upside or downside. This indicator is to be paired with Andromeda strategy found here:
This indicator contains alerts that correspond to signals from the strategy. Both indicators should be used on the chart at the same time.
Notable Settings
Volatility Type: ATR or TRD , these types will be expanded in future releases.
Signal Speed: How quickly you'd like signals to flow in
Number of Take Profits: How many take profits levels. 1-5
Show dip buying levels: If you have a high risk appetite, these are levels where you could increase your investment size, this has no effect on the indicator but is included for if you wish to manually add to your position size
Activate Longs?: Toggles on/off Longs
Activate Longs?: Toggles on/off Shorts
UI components
Big green and red plus signs means an entry point. PTF with green and red arrows means "prepare for trend flip". Not every PTF will actually flip the trend. These are just warning shots to make you aware that a possible trend flip is coming. Labels nest to market structure breaks with numbers are the ideal entry level. You can set limit orders at these levels so as to incur less exchange fees on Binance or Bybit for example. The data window provides useful information about the current trade and targets and stoploss of the next upcoming trade giving the current price action of the asset.
Other things to note
this is an extremely high risk indicator depending on how you tune the settings. You can tune down the settings to make it less risky at the cost of profit and hit rate, but that's up to you and your trading style. This can be used all all timeframes, but is meant for timeframes below 4 hours.

CryptoGraph Entry BuilderA complete system to generate buy & sell signals, based on multiple indicators, timeframes and assets
═════════════════════════════════════════════════════════════════════════
🟣 How it works
This indicator allows you to create buy & sell signals, based on multiple trigger conditions, placed in one easy to use TradingView indicator to produce alerts, backtest, reduce risk and increase profitability. This script is especially designed to be used with the CryptoGraph Strategizer indicator. Signals produced by this indicator, can be used as external input with the CryptoGraph Strategizer, by adding both indicators to your chart and selecting "External Input" as entry source in the inputs of the Strategizer indicator. From that point on, buy & sell signals generated by the Entry Builder, will be used for backtesting.
Each trigger or filtering condition is selectable and able to be combined using the selection boxes.
Trigger or filter conditions can be used on a different timeframes, and with different assets or coin pairs. Make sure to set higher timeframe filters, to a higher timeframe than your chart timeframe.
🟣 How to use
• Add the indicator to your chart
• Select an indicator you woud like to use for entry analysis. Combine more indicators for more entry filtering
• Configure entry conditions per indicator. It is recommended to add and configure one indicator at a time
• Analyse your buy/sell entries
• Connect to CryptoGraph Strategizer as external input source for backtesting purposes
🟣 Indicator Filters
• ATR :
Average True Range (ATR) is a tool used in technical analysis to measure volatility .
Possible options for ATR entry filtering are an ATR value greater/smaller than your input variable for trade entries, or the ATR crossing your input variable for trade entries.
This enables the possibility to only enter positions when the market has a certain degree of volatility .
• ADX :
The Average Directional Index ( ADX ) helps traders determine the strength of a trend, not its actual direction. It can be used to find out whether the
market is ranging or starting a new trend.
Possible options for ADX entry filtering are an ADX value greater/smaller than your input variable for trade entries, or the ADX crossing your input variable for trade entries.
• OBV :
The On Balance Volume indicator (OBV) is used in technical analysis to measure buying and selling pressure. It is a cumulative indicator meaning that on days where price went up, that day's volume is added to the cumulative OBV total.
Possible options for OBV entry filtering are Regular, Hidden or Regular&Hidden divergences. Divergence is when the price of an asset is moving in the opposite direction of a technical indicator, such as an oscillator, or is moving contrary to other data. Divergence warns that the current price trend may be weakening, and in some cases may lead to the price changing direction.
• Moving Average :
Moving Average (MA) is a price based, lagging (or reactive) indicator that displays the average price of a security over a set period of time. A Moving Average is a good way to gauge momentum as well as to confirm trends, and define areas of support and resistance .
Possible options for MA entry filtering are price being above/below Moving Average 1, price crossing up/down Moving Average 1, Moving Average 1 being above/below Moving Average 2 and Moving Average 1 crossing up/down Moving Average 2.
• Supertrend :
Supertrend (ST) is a trend-following indicator based on Average True Range (ATR). The calculation of its single line combines trend detection and volatility . It can be used to detect changes in trend direction and to position stops.
Possible options for ST entry filtering are Supertrend being in upward/downward direction, or Supertrend changing direction.
• RSI :
The Relative Strength Index ( RSI ) is a well versed momentum based oscillator which is used to measure the speed (velocity) as well as the change (magnitude) of directional price movements.
Possible options for RSI entry filtering are RSI being smaller/greater than your input value, or RSI crossing up/down your input value.
• Stochastic RSI :
The Stochastic RSI indicator ( Stoch RSI ) is essentially an indicator of an indicator. It is used in technical analysis to provide a stochastic calculation to the RSI indicator. This means that it is a measure of RSI relative to its own high/low range over a user defined period of time.
Possible options for Stoch RSI entry filtering are Stoch RSI crossing below or above your input value.
• VWAP Bands :
Volume Weighted Average Price ( VWAP ) is a technical analysis tool used to measure the average price weighted by volume . VWAP is typically used with intraday charts as a way to determine the general direction of intraday prices.
We use standard deviations, determined by user input, to create VWAP bands.
Possible options for VWAP long entry filtering are: price being below the lower VWAP band, price crossing back up the lower VWAP band or price crossing down the lower VWAP band.
Possible options for VWAP short entry filtering are: price being above the upper VWAP band, price crossing back down the upper VWAP band, or price crossing up the upper VWAP band.
• Bollinger Bands :
Bollinger Bands (BB) are a widely popular technical analysis instrument created by John Bollinger in the early 1980’s. Bollinger Bands consist of a band of three lines which are plotted in relation to security prices. The line in the middle is usually a Simple Moving Average ( SMA ) set to a period of 20 days (the type of trend line and period can be changed by the trader; however a 20 day moving average is by far the most popular).
Possible options for BB long entry filtering are: price being below the lower Bollinger band , price crossing back up the lower Bollinger band or price crossing down the lower Bollinger band .
Possible options for BB short entry filtering are: price being above the upper Bollinger band , price crossing back down the upper Bollinger band , or price crossing up the upper Bollinger band .
• WaveTrend :
WaveTrend (WT) is a smoothed momentum oscillator which enables it to detect true reversals in an accurate manner.
Possible options for WT entry filtering are: Green/red dots below or above a certain WaveTrend value, Regular Divergence, Hidden Divergence and Regular&Hidden Divergence.
Jerry J8 30-123 Spy Dashboard ProPlease watch the J8 Scalping Tutorial Video below for a walkthrough on how these indicators work.
This script is used in conjunction with Jerry J8 30-123 SPY Scalping PRO” Indicator(which creates the buy and sell orders as a strategy). The Dashboard shows the 4 main criteria statuses from the strategy. I find the dashboard makes scalping the SPY much easier.
This study project is designed for scalping options that expire daily with bull put and bear call credit spreads on a 3 minute chart. The name 30_123 is a reference to 4 main criteria being met to give a green light for a potential trade. The criteria:
* 30 = 30 minute trend
* 1 = 3 minute trend
* 2 = Moving average criteria
* 3 = RSI criteria
4 = Secondary trend. Bonus if in sync but not a requirement.
* The strategy also utilizes momentum as a criteria but this is not shown on the dashboard.
This indicator is designed to trade options that expire daily including the SPY, IWM, QQQ, and NDX. However, it can be used with multiple symbols on a 3 minute chart.
When the 30_123 conditions are all green with all criteria are met a bull signal is created.
When the 30_123 conditions are all red with all criteria are met a bear signal is created.
This study is the dashboard that is designed to show how the main J8 strategy indicator is working and it shows which criteria have been met. Additionally there are multiple user INPUTS that you can adjust for the 4 main criteria plus inputs to help you with your credit spread criteria.
For example, if the SPY is at 400 we could have an order to sell a BULL PUT CREDIT SPREAD and I would likely sell the 398p and buy the 397p; The 398p delta would be approximately -.2. The spread position profits with any close over 398 and/or can be closed early with a bullish price move. IMPORTANT: If the SPY closed the day at $399 on the chart it would look like a loss based on the buy and sell orders but the spread would be a full profit since the close was above 398.
---- IRON CONDOR
For the SPY ticker only an iron condor label is generated when the SPY is trading sideways and meets specified criteria. When the criteria is met the Iron Condor label appears and it provides a recommendation for what option to buy and sell. The iron condor recommendations can be adjusted with user inputs.
This Indicator dashboard shows the criteria labels and colors the criteria as green if bullish and red if bearish. When the criteria are not met the dashboard shows “NO CLEAR SIGNAL”. There is also a label that shows whether you are looking for bullish or bearish positions based on the 30 minute trend.
The chart shown on the indicator is the RSI and for this indicator an RSI over 50 is bullish and under 50 is bearish. The line color shows the RSI trend. RSI OB (overbought) and OS (oversold) areas are shaded. The RSI can remain in an OB or OS state for a prolonged period and while some people use OB and OS as a reversal signal I use it as a strong trend indication and recognize it will not last forever. You can SET the OB and OS levels with inputs.
---- USER INPUTS
Paint Bars: Turns on/off the candle coloring. Default is OFF.
Iron Condor Settings: Defaults are what I use and can be used as a guide.
Criteria: Trend, moving averages, and RSI settings can all be adjusted.
---- SETUP & HINTS
Add "Jerry J8 30-123 SPY Scalping PRO” indicator to show bull and bear signals
Add "Jerry J8 MACD Optimal Entry Zone” indicator to show best MACD range for entry
I also like to add "Jerry Momentum Dream" indicator to see the momentum
With this indicator we’re looking for the 30, 1, 2, and 3 criteria to be met which increases our likelihood of success. IMPORTANT. Never automatically enter a position without reviewing the other indicators and drawing your own conclusions. You want to choose the entries that are the most appealing to you that take into account volume, time of day, and risk/reward. Positions should be closed based on your risk/reward goals.
Indicators are not a magic pill and should be used to support trading decisions, not to make them for you. Past performance is not a guarantee of future returns. The results of individual stocks/indexes with any strategy do not constitute proof they will repeat in the future.
DISCLAIMER: The information contained in our scripts/indicators/ideas does not constitute financial advice or a solicitation to buy or sell any securities of any type. Trading and investing in the stock market and cryptocurrencies involves substantial risk of loss and is not suitable for every investor. I’m NOT a financial adviser.

Please Use the AUTHOR’s INSTRUCTIONS link below for more information.
NOTE: The PERFORMANCE SUMMARY below does not accurately reflect the trading strategy because the entry orders generated in the strategy are based on the stock price and our actual order is a credit spread that is profitable even if the price moves against us a little bit. What could show as a loss in the strategy could be a profit in the credit spread.
Price Swing Detection - Smart Money ConceptSince my own style is Smart Money Concept and these days I have seen a lot of my friends who are having trouble identifying structures for their indicators and strategies. I wrote this code so they could use it in their strategy . In fact, this type of structure, as one of the strongest technical structures, can increase the success of your strategy according to your personalization.
The script detects swings (i.e. significant highs and lows) in a financial instrument's price action over a specified period. The user can set the lookback period (number of candles to consider) and the colors of the lines representing bullish and bearish trends.
The script has two functions: detectSwing and pivot high. The detectSwing function calculates the swing highs and lows for the specified number of candles. The function uses the ta.highest and ta.lowest functions to find the highest and lowest prices, respectively, over the lookback period. The function also determines the swing state (high or low) of the current candle and returns the calculated swing values.
The pivot high function calculates the pivot high, which is an important step in detecting bullish structures in the market. If a new top (i.e. swing high) is found, the script updates the pivot high values and creates a line from the recent top to the last bar. The script also updates the trailing maximum values, which are used to extend the top extension line.
For Strategy :
The variable "trendDirection" in the code is used to keep track of the trend state, either bullish (up trend) or bearish (down trend), in the market. The variable is initialized to 0 which represents a downtrend. The value of this variable is updated later in the code based on the calculations of swing highs and lows, pivot crosses, and the trailing maximum. If a bullish structure is detected, the value of "trendDirection" is set to 1, indicating an uptrend.
Setup Max e Min Larry WilliansLarry Williams used this system to win the trading championship
Hello friends, I bring a script with a trading strategy to be used in futures such as Index, Forex and Commodities. Developed by famous trader Larry Williams.
In them we use two 3-period Simple Moving Averages (Arithmetic) (one with the high price, the other with the low price), and a 21-period Moving Average (Arithmetic) to determine the trend. This will form an average channel with the prices of the maximums and minimums of the last three candles.
Best time charts use the strategy: from 5 minutes to 60 minutes.
This strategy is quite simple. The 21 Moving Average will color according to the trend (Green for bullish, Red for bearish and Gray for transitions). The Script will signal the entry according to the trend by the colors of the candles and also by the signal:
When green, the buy will be on the crossing of the lower Moving Average crossing the candlestick, and the exit will be on the crossing of the candlestick on the next Upper Moving Average.
When red, the sell will be at the crossing of the Upper Moving Average crossing the candlestick, and the exit will be at the crossing of the candlestick on the next Lower Moving Average.
When the Script signals the candle with a purple X, it means that the trend is changing and the entire open operation must be closed.
This system has no Stop, so be careful when using it.

Larry Williams usou esse sistema ganhar campeonato de trade
Olá amigos, trago um script com uma estratégia de trade pra ser usada em futuros como Índice, Forex e Commodities. Desenvolvido pelo famoso trader Larry Willians.
Neles usamos duas Médias Móveis Simples (Aritmética) de 3 períodos (uma com o preço da máxima, outra com o preço da mínima), e uma Média Móvel (Aritmética) de 21 períodos para determinar a tendência. Nisso vai formar uma canal de médias com os preços das máximas e mínimas dos últimos três candles.
Melhores tempos gráficos usar a estratégia: de 5 minutos até 60 minutos.
Essa estratégia é bem simples. A Média Móvel de 21 irá colorir de acordo com a tendência (Green pra alta, Red para baixa e Gray para transições). O Script irá sinalizar a entrada de acordo com a tendência pela cores dos candles e também pela sinalização:
Quando green, a compra será no cruzamento da Média Móvel inferior cruzando o candle, e a saida será no cruzamento do candle na Média Móvel Superior seguinte.
Quando red, a venda será no cruzamento da Média Móvel Superior cruzando o candle, e a saida será no cruzamento do candle na Média Móvel Inferior seguinte.
Quando o Script sinaliza o candle com X purple, significa que a tendência está em mudança e deve ser fechada toda a operação em aberto.
Este sistema não possui Stop, portando cuidado quanto a seu uso.
ASE Supply & Demand█ Introduction
ASE Supply & Demand is a multi-timeframe Supply and Demand zone indicator based on the Order Block concept. Order Blocks are a price action concept defined as a basing candle followed by a breakout candle (as seen in the chart below). A basing candle typically shows a slowing down in price action, foreshadowing a reversal and initial institutional activity. The breakout candle then confirms institutional activity with a displacement candle in the opposite direction of the basing candle. Additionally, there is an advanced feature called “Potentials,” which allows us to see price action forming S&D zones beforehand & trapped positions live through the same Order Block concept.
█ Supply and Demand Zones
The Supply & Demand zones are plotted on 8 timeframes (5m, 15m, 30m, 1hr, 2hr, 3hr, 4hr, D). In addition, there are custom settings that allow the trader to filter for the most significant zones and to cohere to their trading style:
Range Multiplier
Filters the creation of a zone based on the basing candle of Supply/Demand(0-5)
The size of the basing candle must be smaller than 0-5 times the True Range Index to create Supply/Demand.
If the basing candle range is smaller than the True Range Index, this can foreshadow the potential of institutional activity as price slows down, and a potential reversal might occur.
True Range Index
The number of bars to calculate the True Range in Range S+D mode.
Displacement Sensitivity
Filters the creation of a zone based on the displacement from the base (0-20)
Calculated by taking the breakout range (as seen in the chart below) divided by the range of the basing candle
0 = less significant, more zones
20 = more significant, fewer zones
Zone Strength Filter %
Filter out current zones based on how strong they are (0-100)
Calculated by the amount of fill within a zone. By changing the Zone Strength Filter, you can display zones that have not breached the filter % you select. For example, if you choose 80% Zone Strength, that means it will only show zones that are 20% filled or less; in other words, zones that have 80% or more yet to be filled.
0 = All Zones
100 = Completely unused zones
With these advanced filters and plotting on multiple timeframes, we have created the best Supply and Demand Indicator . In addition, these filters help to eliminate insignificant zones and noise in the market, leaving us a clean chart.
█ Potentials
Potentials foreshadow the possibility of a Supply or Demand Zone forming, the possibility of a Trapped concept, and it works great as targets or influence in our trades.
Potentials are calculated by the same Order Block concept, which allows us to see Supply & Demand/Order Blocks forming in real-time.
When a potential is triggered and holds, the line turns solid. If it continues to hold, it has the potential of forming a Supply/Demand zone based on the trader's Zone Filters. If the price pulls back and fails to hold, it will go back to dotted. Inferring it used the potential as liquidity and is potentially trapping market participants at that potential.
█ How To Use:
Supply and Demand Zones are the ‘Where’ to our trade but not the ‘Why.’ This means that the zones are our POI (Point of Interest) and ‘Where’ we want to be looking for a trade. It is not our ‘Why’ because we do not enter just because we are in a zone. This is because we expect pivots or reversals inside our Supply & Demand zones, and this rarely happens quickly.
What we want to look for in our zones is a solid base for our reversals. Simply put, we want to see new demand forming at our Demand Zones and new supply forming at our Supply Zones. This can be achieved by observing the ‘Potentials’ feature which allows us to see new Order Blocks or ‘Base Candles’ forming. With a trained eye, the ‘Potentials’ feature is highly effective in addition to its ‘Trapped’ logic which can offer entries on their own. The "Trapped" label on potentials shows potential trapped buyers or sellers after we reach that level. Observing and understanding how price action facilitates, especially around the zones, is crucial to its usability. In addition, other strategies or indicators can be used in confluence to support bounces out of demand and rejections out of supply.
Ultimately once we find a viable entry, we want to see a complete cycle. For example, if we caught a bounce out of demand with new demand forming, we would want to see the cycle complete and us reach the next supply or manufacture new supply. The ‘Potentials’ feature is the easiest way to gather multiple targets and at the same time offers stop loss management.

Momentum Filter
These are based on the 10 and 20 EMA crossover, where the former above would indicate upward momentum and below downward momentum. This can help to narrow down the color code to continuation phases. The linked option will override all other momentum filters, bullish candles will be displayed when EMA 10 > 20 and bearish candles when EMA 10 < 20.
RSI Bands [APIDEVs]RSI BANDS:
It is an exclusive product of ApiDevs, this indicator selectively integrates a series of highly advanced algorithms that aim to provide the trader with an effective and profitable trading system, based on a series of conditions that project the price direction with a reasonable probability.
This indicator bears the name of “RSI Bands”, this is because we have based this trading system on the “Relative Strength Index ( RSI )”, the strength of this indicator is centennial and we at APIDEVs have decided to focus our efforts on the development of powerful tools based on the favorite indicators of the afternoon.
WHAT IT HAS INCORPORATED:
1. Exponential Moving Average (EMAs): The RSI Bands has, by default, a band composed of two moving averages of 10 and 55 exponential periods, which can be modified in the indicator menu.
• Possibility of changing the value of the EMAs.
• Function was enabled to change the color and transparency of the bands.
• Visual alerts SHORT (L) and LONG (L) were added when there is the crossing of the EMAS.
• Hull Moving Average ( HMA ) of 100 periods was also incorporated, also modifiable for those who wish to strengthen their visual analysis. (Disabled by default)
• We also add an Exponential Moving Average ( EMA ) of 200 periods to mark the trend. (Disabled by default).
2. ATR ( Average True Range ): This indicator has two main functions in the RSI Bands, the first is to mark the trend of the asset and the second is to establish a margin of safety in price volatility , that is, a maximum estimate of the setbacks without this representing a change in the direction of the price.
3. RSI ( Relative Strength Index ): It was visually incorporated into the RSI Bands, the graph is obtained on the right side and its purpose is to visually indicate where the price is with respect to the RSI PRO+ indicator, offering the following improvements :
• ALERT SYSTEM: THE RSI PRO+ has the ADX incorporated into its algorithm, which allows establishing a filter that will provide reliable inputs, represented by the LONG (L) and SHORT (S) signals.
• FILTER AGAINST TREND: The signals described above will be activated according to the crossing of the RSI above the 50 point, provided that the ADX agrees with the market direction.
• Possibility of deactivating this graphical representation.
4. ADX ( Average Directional Index ): The ADX in this indicator is intended to estimate the strength of the movement, it is present in each part of the code, either to indicate the strength of the market or to serve as a filter against trend. In the same way, we apply certain exclusive improvements for this indicator:
• It was established as default values of the ADX that the Level Range was 10 and the Level Trend 25. This significantly changes the behavior of this indicator, almost completely eliminating the zone of disinterest that was usually considered.
• A function was activated to paint the sails the color of the ADX .
5. ADX Ocillator: Yes, we developed a Wave oscillator type ADX and incorporated it into this strategy. From this indicator, which we recommend using in conjunction with the RSI Bands, we extracted the LONG (L) and SHORT (S) signals. The ADX Oscillator is the improved version of the traditional ADX as it offers the following improvements:
• Its interpretation is much simpler.
• Allows you to set entry and exit signals during the trend change and during the price path.
• It has an integrated alert system.
STRATEGY PANEL:
This panel is an exclusive creation of APIDEVs, and its purpose is to parameterize five conditionals based on the indicators that make up our RSI strategy, giving the trader an immediate vision of the status of the asset analyzed considering this strategy. That is, we decided to transfer our experience of using this indicator on a panel that will project the price trajectory visually. It has the following characteristics:
• It can be placed anywhere on the screen through the main menu of the indicator, it can even be deactivated.
• It can be resized, we designed this to adapt to all types of screens, including those of mobile phones.
• It has an upper panel called "Project" which will calculate the percentage probability that the price has to take a direction based on all the indicators incorporated into the strategy. Their values range from (+ 100%) to (-100%).
STRATEGY PANEL PARAMETERS:
1. EMAs: This panel has 2 variables:
• LONG: If the fast EMA is above the slow EMA .
• SHORT: If the fast EMA is below the slow EMA .
2. RSI: This panel has 3 variables:
• LONG: The RSI should be bullish (green) and above the 50 point.
• SHORT: The RSI should be bearish (red) and be below the 50 point.
• RANK: (Range)this condition is activated when there is no concordance with the RSI condition and its crossing.
3. ATR: This panel has 2 variables:
• LONG: When the price is above the ATR.
• SHORT: When the price is below the ATR.
4. ADX: This panel has 3 variables:
• LONG: The ADX is green. That is, the DI + is above the DI-.
• SHORT: The ADX is red. That is, the DI- is above the DI +.
• RANK: ADX is below point 10.
It also has a numerical value that indicates the value of the ADX and two texts indicating the strength of the trend:
• Trend ( bullish or bearish ).
• Strong trend ( bullish or bearish ).
5. OSC: This panel has 3 variables:
• LONG: The oscillator slopes upward and the built-in ADX is green.
• SHORT: The oscillator slopes downward and the built-in ADX is red.
• RANK: The oscillator slopes downward and the built-in ADX is green and the opposite. In short, there is no coherence in the movement of the oscillator and the projection of the ADX .

MAGISTR Binary 3 EURUSD 1min The indicator is designed for use in binary options trading.
Designed for TF 1 minute, EURUSD pair (tested on Currency.com exchange instrument).
When the rules of the internal algorithm are triggered, the indicator generates a signal with the probable movement of the instrument on the next bar:
if a green bar appears at the bottom of the bar, it means that the indicator assumes that the next bar should close at a positive price growth value (it will be green) and vice versa, if a red bar appears at the bottom of the bar, then the indicator assumes that the next bar should close at a negative price growth value( will be red), the indicator also generates appropriate alerts about the expected price movement on the next bar.
In addition, the indicator counts the signals issued by it and the success of its processing for the period of time available in TradingView.
This indicator uses a set of values of such basic indicators as:
- Stochastic RSI;
- Bollinger Bands;
- Profile of Volumes;
- CCI;
- ADX;

and others.
I left all the settings "open", so it is quite possible, by slightly changing the parameters, to adjust it to another pair or time frame.

SpreadTrade - Auto-Cointegration (ps5)Decsription: Auto-Cointegration-Based Pair Trading Strategy (revised version)
To review, there are three popular styles of Pair trading: distance-based pair trading, correlation-based pair trading and cointegration-based pair trading. Typically, they require preliminary statistical estimation of the viability of the corresponding strategy.
Basically a pair trade strategy boils down to shorting the outperforming instrument and going long on the underperforming instrument whenever the temporary correlation weakens which means one instrument is going up and another is going down. Apart from the typical cointegration strategy which employs two cointegrated instruments, this script uses just one instrument, in base timeframe and in lagged timeframe, actually making it an auto-cointegration, or better still, an auto-correlation strategy.
Notice that each moving average function may require different Threshold settings.The orange cross symbol indicates the exit points. To filter out the signals use higher values for the LongWindow and the Threshold parameters. Also pay attention that in some cases with some moving averages the color of the signals has to be inverted.

Price change scalping short and long strategy indicatorPrice change scalping Short and Long indicator uses a rate of change momentum oscillator to calculate the percent change in price between a period of time. Rate of change calculation takes the current price and compares it to a price of "n" periods while the period of time can be defined by a user. The calculated rate of change value is then compared to the upper threshold and the lower threshold values to determine if a position should be opened. If the threshold is crossed and filtering conditions are met a strategy position will be triggered. Entry, take profit, and stop loss prices are calculated and displayed on the chart as well as positions directions. Once the entry price is crossed, a long or short position is created and once the take profit price is crossed, the stop loss price will begin to trail behind the price action using the close of the previous bar. Once the trailing stop price is crossed, the position is closed. If the entry price is not crossed and the price action crosses the stop level, the trade setup is cancelled. The indicator is enhanced by DCA algorithm which allows to average entry price with safety orders. The script also allows to use Martingale coefficient to increase averaging power
Advantages of this script:
The indicator has custom alert settings for each strategy action
The indicator can be used with 3Commas, Cryptohopper, Alertatron or Zignaly bots
High frequency and low duration of trades
Can be used with short-term timeframes ranging from 5 to 60 minutes
Indicator is sustainable to market slumps due to DCA implementation
Can be used for short and long positions (can be adjusted to long only, short only or both)
Can be applied to any market and quote currency
Easy to configure user interface settings
Built in detailed statistic menu
How to use?
1. Apply the indicator to a trading pair your are interested in using 5 to 60 minutes timeframe chart
2. Configure the indicator: change layer values, order size multiple and take profit/stop loss values according to current market cycle stage
3. Set up a TradingView custom alert using the indicator settings to trigger on a condition you are interested in
4. indicator will send alerts when to enter and when to exit positions which can be applied to your portfolio using external trading platforms

MACD ULTRA with ALERTS - by OVARIDE WORK IN PROGRESS!
Coded by OVARIDE (littlegreenfish)
Made to be used with Dark Theme. Made to be used with Heikin Ashi bars (You can enable Real Price from chart settings). Test and use at your own risk. Not recommended for NEW/ INEXPERIENCED TRADERS using this for short-timeframe scalping. Bot integration is possible for high timeframes using the built-in alerts as a trigger via webhooks
Features
This is a reworked MACD code with added buffs for traders wanting more information from this basic indicator.
What this indicator does -
1. Plots a traditional MACD indicator with full input control from within the settings. All colors and values are editable , as you would expect from the standalone indicator.
2. Adds shape to the chart when MACD crosses over Signal line, while both MACD and Signal lines are below the ZERO line.
3. Adds shape to the chart when MACD crosses over ZERO line.
4. Highlights trend direction. Purple = Up Trend Likely , Yellow = Up Trend may end (use caution) , Red = Strong Down Trend Begins.
5. Ability to set alerts for -
a) When MACD crosses Signal Line.
b) When MACD crosses Zero line.
c) When an Up Trend is likely to begin.
d) When an Up Trend is slowing and may end.
e) When a Strong Down Trend begins.
Considerations -
1. Traders may use this indicator in conjunction with an existing strategy to confirm entries and exits. Traders may also use this indicator as a standalone indicator to assist with entries and exits.
2. Possible Long entries -
a) When MACD crosses Signal line while blow the Zero Line
b) When MACD crosses Zero
c) When Up Trend is Likely to begin and the background is highlighted in purple.
3. Possible stop-loss / exits (Omitted MACD crossing below Signal line and MACD crossing below Zero line)
a) When Up Trend Is slowing and the background is highlighted Yellow
b) When a Strong Down trend begins and the background is highlighted in Red. All open long position trades should be ended here.
4. The trend algorithm is hard-coded. Changing the MACD and Signal values from within the settings WILL NOT change the result of when and how the trend directions are highlighted.
5. Trend highlights are ONLY A GUIDE . You can still take entry positions in non-highlighted, yellow or red regions if your overall technical analysis tells you to.

Inside Bar SetupScript Details
- This script plots Inside Bar for given day in selected time-frame (applicable only for Timeframes < Day)
- Basis plotted inside bar, relevant targets are marked on the chart
- Targets can be customised from script settings. Example, if range of mother candle is 10 points, then T1 is 10 * x above/below mother candle and T2 is 10 * y above/below mother candle. This x & y are configured via script settings
How to use this script ?
- This script works well on 10-15 mins timeframe for stocks, 15/30 mins timeframe for nifty index and 30/60 mins time frame for bank nifty index
- If mother candle high is broken, take long trade with SL of mother candle low and if low is broken, take short trade with SL of mother candle high
Remember:
1. Above logic is to be combined with support/resistances i.e. price action. This script is an add-on to price action analysis giving you more conviction.
2. If range of mother candle is very high, it is recommended to avoid the trade.
3. Basis inside bar formed on higher time frame, take trade on basis of lower time frame i.e if inside bar is formed on 60 mins, take trade on the basis of 10-15 mins time frame
Example:
1. As seen in the chart, Nifty is near it's resistance and we are seeing Inside Bar being formed, In such scenario, even if High of Mother Candle is broken, we should be more interested to short as we are near resistance and probability of getting our targets in long side is less.
2. So, if I see breakdown of mother candle i.e. price going below low of mother candle, we will short with SL of high of mother candle.
3. As seen in the chart, both the targets are achieved.
Additional Info:
1. Targets on Long/Short Side can be configured via settings. For indices 1 times/1.5 times the range works well.
2. This script plots targets basis the first inside bar formed in the day for selected time frame.
3. Inside bars formed through out the day are coloured separately but lines are plotted only on the basis of 1st formed inside bar as this strategy works well for the first formed inside bar)
4. Don't forget to check volume in case of breakout/breakdown.
Note:
1. Mother Candle - First Candle of Inside Bar
2. Child Candle - Candle formed inside Mother Candle (Second Candle of Inside Bar)
Happy Trading :)
