ADX Curvature SuiteADX² Curvature Suite: Beyond Trend Strength
Detect Trend Ignition Before the Crowd by Analyzing the Second Derivative of Momentum.
█ OVERVIEW: A PARADIGM SHIFT IN TREND ANALYSIS
This is not another ADX indicator. This is a complete paradigm shift in how we perceive and trade trends.
The standard Average Directional Index (ADX) is a powerful but fundamentally flawed tool for the modern trader. It is a lagging indicator. It tells you that a trend existed . It confirms what has already happened. The ADX² Curvature Suite was engineered to solve this problem by asking a more profound question: not "Is there a trend?" but " Is a trend being born right now? " and " Is this established trend about to die? "
To achieve this, we go beyond the first dimension of trend strength and venture into the second and third dimensions: Velocity and Acceleration . We don't just measure the ADX value; we measure its rate of change, and the rate of change of its rate of change. This is Curvature Analysis . It allows us to see the subtle, invisible forces building beneath the surface of the market—the coiling spring of momentum right before a trend explodes, and the critical loss of thrust right before it collapses.
This suite is a fusion of three professional-grade analytical engines working in perfect concert:
The Curvature Engine: A sophisticated calculus-based system that computes the 1st and 2nd derivatives of the ADX to quantify its momentum.
The Phase Detection System: A proprietary model that classifies the market into one of six distinct phases in a trend's lifecycle, from Dormancy to Exhaustion.
The Quantum Vortex Bands™: A visually stunning, adaptive volatility and momentum channel for the ADX itself, providing context to its every move.
Together, they form a comprehensive decision-support system designed to give you an almost unfair advantage in identifying trend ignition and exhaustion points before the rest of the market has even registered a change.
█ THE SCIENCE: THE THREE PILLARS OF ADX²
The genius of this suite lies in its multi-layered mathematical foundation. It's a symphony of classical theory and modern statistical analysis.
Pillar 1: The Core ADX Engine (The "What")
At its base, the suite uses the classic ADX calculation developed by J. Welles Wilder Jr. It measures the strength of a trend, irrespective of its direction, on a scale of 0-100. The Directional Movement Indicators (+DI and -DI) provide the directional bias. This is our foundation—the raw data from which we extract a higher-dimensional truth.
Pillar 2: Curvature Analysis (The "When")
This is the revolutionary core of ADX². We apply the principles of differential calculus to the ADX line itself.
Velocity (1st Derivative): Calculated as ADX - ADX . This is the speed of the ADX. A positive velocity means trend strength is increasing. A negative velocity means it's decreasing. This is a leading indicator compared to the ADX value alone.
Acceleration (2nd Derivative): Calculated as Velocity - Velocity or ADX - 2*ADX + ADX . This is the change in speed of the ADX. It's the "force" being applied to the trend.
Positive Acceleration is like pressing the gas pedal on a car. It signifies a trend is not just strengthening, but strengthening at an increasing rate. This is the mathematical signature of Ignition .
Negative Acceleration is like hitting the brakes. It signifies a trend is losing thrust, even if its speed (ADX value) is still high. This is the mathematical signature of Exhaustion .
By analyzing these derivatives, we can identify critical inflection points in trend momentum that are completely invisible to anyone looking at the standard ADX alone.
Pillar 3: Z-Score Normalization (The "How")
Raw acceleration values are meaningless when comparing different assets or timeframes. An acceleration spike on NQ is vastly different from one on EURUSD. To solve this, we employ a powerful statistical tool: the Z-Score .
The Z-Score formula is: Z = (Value - Mean) / Standard_Deviation
We apply this to our calculated acceleration values. The result is a normalized score that tells us how many standard deviations away from the "normal" behavior the current acceleration is. A Z-Score of +2.0 means the current acceleration is a 2-sigma event—statistically significant and rare. This makes our signals universal and adaptive . A +2.0 sigma Ignition signal has the same statistical weight on a 1-minute chart of a volatile crypto as it does on a daily chart of a stable stock. This is what allows the suite to work out-of-the-box on virtually any market, automatically adapting to its unique volatility and character.
█ THE SIX PHASES OF A TREND: A MARKET LIFECYCLE
The ADX² engine uses its curvature and Z-Score data to classify the market into one of six distinct phases, providing a clear, color-coded narrative of the trend's lifecycle.
💤 DORMANT: ADX is low and flat. The market is consolidating. There is no trend. This is the time to stand aside and wait.
⚡ IGNITION: ADX is low, but a powerful spike in positive acceleration has been detected. The engine of a new trend is firing up. This is your earliest entry signal.
🚀 ACCELERATION: ADX is rising with positive velocity. The trend has left the station and is gaining momentum. This is the main "trend following" phase.
🏔 MATURE: ADX is high and its velocity is flattening. The trend is well-established and powerful, but no longer accelerating. This is a time to be cautious and manage positions.
🔥 EXHAUSTION: ADX is high, but a significant negative acceleration event has occurred. The trend has hit the brakes hard. A reversal or deep pullback is highly probable. This is your primary exit signal.
📉 DECLINE: ADX is falling with negative velocity. The trend's strength is actively fading, and the market is returning to a dormant state.
█ THE ARSENAL: MASTERING THE VISUALS
Every visual element is a data-rich component designed for rapid interpretation.
The Main Chart: Signals & Trade Management
Signal Shapes: Every signal appears as a shape on the main chart.
Triangles (▲▼): These are the highest conviction signals— Ignition and
Exhaustion . Their color indicates the specific event type.
X-Crosses (◇): These mark Divergences between price and ADX—powerful reversal warnings.
Kill Zone Labels: These are dynamic, floating labels that appear in real-time when high-probability conditions are met.
⚡ IGNITION ZONE: Appears below price when the market is dormant but curvature is building. It's a "prepare to engage" warning.
🔥 EXHAUSTION ZONE: Appears above price when the trend is mature but rapidly decelerating. It's a "prepare to exit" warning.
The Signal Line System: When a signal fires, a full trade management overlay can be drawn.
Entry Line: A colored line (Solid, Dashed, or Dotted) at the signal price.
SL/TP Lines: Dotted lines showing ATR-based Stop Loss (Red) and up to 3 Take Profit levels (Green).
Live Tracking: The lines track progress, dimming when a TP is hit and self-deleting upon completion, leaving a ✓ for a win or an ✗ for a loss. It's a visual backtester on your live chart.
The Lower Pane: The Engine Room
The ADX Line: The line itself is color-coded. A dull color indicates low ADX, a neutral color for a building trend, and a bright, vibrant color for a high, mature trend.
Signal Dots: Colored circles and crosses are plotted directly on the ADX line, allowing you to instantly correlate the signal with the exact ADX level and phase.
The Quantum Vortex Bands™: This is not a Bollinger Band. This is a dynamic, six-layered channel for the ADX itself.
Adaptive Width: The bands expand and contract based on both ADX volatility and its current acceleration (curvature). High acceleration forces the bands wider, anticipating a larger move.
Phase-Adaptive Colors: The fill color of the bands changes dynamically to match the currently detected market phase, giving you an at-a-glance understanding of the trend's health.
Interpretation: When ADX pushes to the outer bands, it's in an extreme state. An Ignition signal when ADX is at the lower band is a high-conviction entry. An Exhaustion signal when ADX is at the upper band is a high-conviction exit.
The Dashboard (HUD): Your All-In-One Command Center
This professional Heads-Up Display provides a comprehensive, real-time summary of every critical metric.
MARKET Section: Shows the raw ADX value, its strength classification (e.g., "STRONG"), and the current directional bias (Bulls vs. Bears) with the spread between +DI and -DI.
MOMENTUM Section: This is the curvature readout. It displays the numerical Velocity (VEL), the Z-Score of the Curvature (CURV), and the RSI of the ADX (RSI²) for a meta-momentum perspective.
PHASE Section: Your at-a-glance trend lifecycle status. It shows the current confirmed phase icon and name (e.g., "⚡ IGNITION"), a counter for how many bars the phase has been active, and the type/strength of any active signal.
STATUS Section: A quick check on secondary systems. It confirms if you are in a Kill Zone, if a Divergence is active, and the count of active Signal Lines on your chart.
OPTIMIZER Section: When enabled, this section displays the results of the built-in backtester, including Win Rate, Profit Factor, and a proprietary Stability Rating ( ROBUST, STABLE, FRAGILE, OVERFIT ) to help you validate your settings.
█ THE COMMAND CENTER: MASTERING THE INPUTS
Every parameter of the ADX² engine is exposed for your control. This allows for unparalleled fine-tuning to any market, timeframe, or trading style.
Core ADX & Curvature Settings
ADX/DI Length & Smoothing: Standard ADX parameters. How to use: Shorter lengths (e.g., 10) for scalping; longer lengths (e.g., 21) for swing trading. Stick to "RMA" smoothing for the classic feel.
Curvature Smoothing: This is the "secret sauce." It smooths the velocity and acceleration calculations. How to use: Use a low value (2-3) for volatile markets or low timeframes to remain responsive. Use a higher value (4-5) for smoother signals on higher timeframes.
Z-Score Lookback & Threshold: Controls the normalization engine. How to use: The Lookback (default 50) sets the "memory" for what is "normal." The Threshold is for the generic curvature spike signals (circles). A higher value (e.g., 2.5σ) will only show extreme events.
Signal Detection Settings
Ignition/Exhaustion Thresholds: The Z-Score level required to trigger the primary phase-change signals. How to use: A lower threshold (e.g., 1.0σ) will give earlier, more frequent signals with more false positives. A higher threshold (e.g., 2.0σ) will give later, less frequent, but higher-conviction signals.
Low/High ADX Levels: These define the boundaries for the phases. Low ADX (default 20) is the ceiling for the Dormant phase. High ADX (default 40) is the floor for the Mature phase. How to use: For choppy markets, you might raise the Low ADX to 22 to avoid false ignitions. For strongly trending markets, you might lower the High ADX to 35 to get earlier exhaustion warnings.
Min Bars Between Signals: A crucial spam filter. It enforces a "cooldown period" after a signal fires, preventing over-trading in choppy conditions.
Signal Lines & Trade Management
SL/TP Multipliers (xATR): Fully customize the risk-to-reward profile of the visual trade overlays. The system uses the Average True Range (ATR) for volatility-adaptive targets. How to use: For day trading, a 1.5 ATR Stop Loss and 1.0, 2.0, 3.0 ATR Take Profits is a balanced approach. For swing trading, you might use a wider 2.5 ATR stop and more ambitious targets.
Quantum Vortex Bands™
Band Mode: Choose from four distinct geometric configurations ( Triple Layer, Fractal Cloud, Momentum Tunnel, Phase Spectrum ) to visually optimize the bands for your specific market type—from high-volatility crypto to tight-ranging indices.
Band Width Multiplier: The master control for the overall width of the bands, allowing you to tune them to be tighter or wider based on your instrument's character.
The Optimizer Engine
Toggle the built-in backtester to rapidly test your settings. Adjust the optTP and optSL to find the most ROBUST configuration for your chart's visible data before committing to a strategy.
█ DEVELOPMENT PHILOSOPHY
The ADX² Curvature Suite was born from a deep dissatisfaction with the static, lagging nature of conventional technical analysis. We believe the future of trading lies not in measuring where the market has been, but in quantifying the forces that will determine where it is going next. By applying calculus and adaptive statistics to a classic indicator, we've created a tool that doesn't just show you the trend; it reveals its DNA. It is complex by necessity, because the market is complex. My mission is to translate that complexity into actionable clarity.
This suite is my attempt to provide the ultimate tool for "sizing up the entire market," giving you the ability to see the very inception and conclusion of those main movements where the real money is made.
█ DISCLAIMER AND BEST PRACTICES
THIS IS NOT A STANDALONE SYSTEM: The ADX² Suite is an advanced decision-support tool. It should be used in conjunction with your own analysis of price action, support/resistance, and market structure.
RISK MANAGEMENT IS PARAMOUNT: All trading involves risk. The visual SL/TP lines are for guidance only. Always use proper position sizing and risk management protocols. This indicator does not guarantee profits.
BACKTEST AND OPTIMIZE: Use the built-in Optimizer Engine and TradingView's Strategy Tester to find the settings that are most robust for your chosen instrument and timeframe before trading live.
HIGH-CONVICTION SETUPS: The highest probability signals occur when multiple factors align: An Ignition signal fires from a low ADX level, near the bottom of the Vortex Bands, in a confirmed Kill Zone, and in the direction of the higher timeframe bias.
"The big money is not in the individual fluctuations, but in the main movements – that is, not in reading the tape, but in sizing up the entire market and its trend."

Multi-Timeframe Continuity Detector (4-Symbol FTFC)═══════════════════════════════════════════════════════════════════════════
📊 Multi-Timeframe Continuity Detector (4-Symbol FTFC)
═══════════════════════════════════════════════════════════════════════════
Detects when ALL 4 major market symbols show Full Time Frame Continuity (FTFC) across ALL selected timeframes simultaneously - a powerful signal of market-wide trend alignment.
Based on Rob Smith's "The Strat" methodology, this indicator helps traders identify periods of strong directional consensus across the entire market basket.
─────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────
🎯 WHAT IT DETECTS
Full Time Frame Continuity occurs when a symbol's candles are all the same color (all green or all red) across multiple timeframes. This indicator takes it further by requiring ALL 4 symbols to be in FTFC simultaneously.
Default Configuration:
- Symbols: SPY, QQQ, DIA, IWM (customizable)
- Timeframes: 5min, 15min, 30min, 60min (intraday pack)
INTRADAY MODE (5/15/30/60):
🟢 When ALL 4 symbols show green candles across ALL 4 timeframes = I-FTFC UP
🔴 When ALL 4 symbols show red candles across ALL 4 timeframes = I-FTFC DOWN
CUSTOM MODE (60/D/W/M or any timeframes):
🟢 When ALL 4 symbols show green candles across ALL 4 timeframes = FTFC UP
🔴 When ALL 4 symbols show red candles across ALL 4 timeframes = FTFC DOWN
─────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────
✨ KEY FEATURES
✅ Continuous Visual Display
Labels appear on EVERY bar where the condition is true - showing you the duration and strength of market alignment, not just when it starts.
✅ Intraday Pack Mode (Default: ON)
Automatically uses 5/15/30/60 minute timeframes optimized for intraday trading. Toggle OFF to use fully custom timeframes per symbol.
✅ Live vs Confirmed Mode
- Live Mode (ON): Shows forming higher-timeframe bars in real-time (repainting)
- Confirmed Mode (OFF): Waits for bar close (no repaint, cleaner historical view)
✅ Symbol Picker
Use the dropdown to easily select any 4 symbols - not limited to indices. Try sector ETFs, currencies, or crypto pairs.
✅ Dynamic Label Text
- "I-FTFC" when using Intraday Pack (5/15/30/60)
- "FTFC" when using custom longer timeframes (hourly/daily/weekly/monthly)
✅ Alert-Ready
Built-in alertconditions fire only when FTFC STARTS (edge detection), preventing alert spam while labels continuously display.
─────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────
📈 HOW TO USE
1. Add indicator to any chart (works on any timeframe)
2. Labels plot continuously when all 4 symbols are in FTFC
3. Use as a filter: Only take trades in the direction of FTFC
4. Watch for reversals: FTFC flipping from green to red (or vice versa) shows market-wide momentum shift
VISUAL READING:
- Multiple consecutive labels = sustained market-wide trend
- Labels suddenly disappear = FTFC broke, alignment lost
- Color flip (green→red or red→green) = potential market reversal
─────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────
💡 PRO TIP: DUAL VIEW SETUP
Want to see BOTH intraday and higher timeframe continuity simultaneously?
1. Add this indicator to your chart (Intraday Pack: ON) → Shows "I-FTFC" labels
2. Add it AGAIN to the same chart (Intraday Pack: OFF, set to D/W/M) → Shows "FTFC" labels
3. Now you'll see both intraday (5/15/30/60) and higher timeframe (D/W/M) continuity together
4. This lets you spot when BOTH short-term and long-term alignment occur - extremely powerful!
You can differentiate them by:
- The label text itself (I-FTFC vs FTFC)
- Adjusting colors per instance if desired
- Placing one instance above bars, one below (via settings)
─────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────
⚙️ CUSTOMIZATION OPTIONS
Symbol Selection:
- Default: SPY, QQQ, DIA, IWM (US major indices)
- Customize to any 4 symbols via symbol picker
Timeframe Modes:
- Intraday Pack (Default): 5/15/30/60 minutes
- Custom Mode: Set any 4 timeframes per symbol (hourly, daily, weekly, monthly, etc.)
Display Modes:
- Live Intrabar: See forming bars in real-time (may repaint historically)
- Confirmed: Only show after bar close (no repaint, but slightly delayed)
─────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────
⚠️ IMPORTANT NOTES
- This indicator shows CONTINUOUS display (not just edges) - this is intentional for visual strength assessment
- In Live Mode, historical bars may "repaint" as higher-timeframe bars develop - this is expected behavior
- Confirmed Mode eliminates repainting but signals appear slightly later
- Works on any chart timeframe (5min chart recommended for intraday pack)
- NA-safe: Won't trigger false signals on missing data
- Label text automatically changes: "I-FTFC" for intraday, "FTFC" for custom timeframes
─────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────
🎓 ABOUT THE STRAT & FTFC
Full Time Frame Continuity is a concept from Rob Smith's "The Strat" - a price action methodology focused on timeframe alignment and actionable signals. FTFC indicates all higher timeframes are trending in the same direction, suggesting strong directional conviction.
This indicator extends the concept to multi-symbol baskets, showing when the ENTIRE market (or your selected basket) is in alignment.
─────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────
💡 TRADING IDEAS
- Overlay on a 5-minute chart for best intraday visibility
- Use as a confirmation filter for other trading strategies
- Watch for FTFC breaking at key support/resistance levels
- Combine with your own entry signals for higher probability trades
- Set TradingView alerts to "Once Per Bar Close" for clean notifications
- Add indicator twice (intraday + higher TF) to spot multi-timeframe alignment
- Look for sustained runs of consecutive labels as high-conviction trend periods

Linear Regression Channel With Pearson's R (Multi Sigma & MTF)This indicator applies multi‑sigma linear regression across multiple institutional time horizons to quantify the line of best fit in equities and index markets. By combining multi‑timeframe presets with statistically derived deviation bands, it highlights trend structure, volatility expansion, and regime transitions with clarity.
What’s New in This Update
The original version of the indicator produced a linear regression channel with multiple deviation bands. However, the statistical values it displayed were not mathematically valid. The value labeled “r” was not Pearson’s correlation coefficient and could not be used to derive R² or any formal regression diagnostics.
This update introduces a fully correct statistical engine based on ordinary least squares (OLS).
NEW STATISTICAL OUTPUTS
• True Pearson’s r
• True R² (coefficient of determination)
• RSS (Residual Sum of Squares)
• TSS (Total Sum of Squares)
These values are mathematically valid, bounded, and directly tied to the regression line.
KEY IMPROVEMENTS
• Correct OLS intercept (removes the erroneous +slope term)
• Proper predicted values using ŷ = b₀ + b₁x
• Correct centering around the actual mean of the data
• Removal of correlation logic from the deviation engine
• Clean separation between statistical computation and volatility computation
• Regression channel visuals remain identical, but the underlying math is now fully accurate
These changes ensure that r and R² reflect true trend strength and model fit, enabling more reliable interpretation of long‑term and short‑term trend regimes.
CORE FEATURES (UNCHANGED)
• Auto‑Multi‑Timeframe presets aligned with institutional trend horizons
• Multi‑Sigma bands (+/‑1σ, +/‑2σ, +/‑3σ) for volatility structure and statistical extremes
• True least‑squares regression recalculated each bar
• Deviation mode toggle (Standard Deviation vs. Max Deviation)
• Full documentation and institutional use‑case examples available on GitHub

Fibonacci Active Timeframe Range [UkutaLabs]█ OVERVIEW
Fibonacci Active Timeframe Range is a precision intraday structure tool that uses real-time price expansion combined with Fibonacci ratios to map dynamic support and resistance levels directly from the active timeframe.
Rather than relying on fixed historical averages, this indicator continuously builds a live range from current price action, projecting Fibonacci-derived levels that adapt to market conditions as they develop.
The goal is to give traders a clear structural framework for:
Intraday bias
Reaction zones
Volatility expansion
Pullback levels
Continuation targets
—all in a clean, visual format that integrates seamlessly into any strategy or system.
█ USAGE
The indicator calculates the current timeframe range in real time, anchoring from the active session’s open and projecting multiple Fibonacci levels within that range.
These levels act as dynamic support and resistance zones, updating as price evolves — allowing traders to:
Identify high-probability reaction areas
Define structure for entries and exits
Frame risk more precisely
Align trades with real-time volatility
Anticipate expansion and contraction phases
Each level is clearly labeled for instant recognition and can be used across scalping, intraday, and short-term swing strategies.
█ SETTINGS
Configuration
• Show Labels – Toggle labels on/off for a clean or informational view
• Display Mode – Control how much historical structure is visible
• Font Size – Adjust label size for readability
• Text Alignment – Align labels relative to each level
• Fibonacci Levels – Enable/disable specific ratios
• Range Mode – Select how the current timeframe range is calculated

• Smart BUY & SELL signals
• Volatility (ATR) filter to avoid dead zones
• Regular Trading Hours (RTH) filter for stocks
• Optimized for SPY, QQQ, DIA, IWM, TSLA, AAPL, META
• Works on crypto, forex, and futures
• Mobile-friendly
• Non-repainting logic
This indicator is best used as a confirmation tool, not a standalone system. Always combine with your own levels, structure, and risk management.
Bollinger Bands on the RSIThe indicator uses Bollinger Bands on the RSI.
Users can customize the RSI length and the Bollinger Bands length. The Bollinger Bands standard deviation can also be adjusted separately for more flexibility and convenience.
In the Settings menu, you can find Trend Confirmation, which can be turned on or off depending on your preference. Trend Confirmation is used to reduce noise on the chart and is calculated using the bar before the trend.
How the indicator can be used
1) As an RSI + EMA-style trend tool (trend following)
When the Bollinger Bands standard deviation is set low, the bands behave similarly to an EMA, so the indicator can be used in trending markets.
2) For mean reversion
When the RSI length is set high and the standard deviation is set high, the indicator can be used in mean-reverting markets.
3) As a regime indicator (to some extent)
With the right calibration, it can likely be used as a regime indicator as well.
There are many more use cases you can discover.
Have fun exploring.

ZION Momentum Flow [wjdtks255]🚀 ZION Momentum Flow
This is a trend-strength oscillator designed to visualize market momentum through a refined RSI logic. It helps traders identify the exact moment when market energy is accelerating or cooling down.
Key Features:
Visual Momentum: Uses a color-coded histogram to represent trend intensity (Green for Bullish, Red for Bearish).
Two-Tone Strength: Darker colors indicate standard movement, while bright neon colors signal high-energy breakouts beyond the threshold.
Built-in Alerts: Supports alerts for momentum spikes, allowing you to catch trend starts without staring at the screen.
VX Term StructureThe VX Term Structure Monitor is an advanced visualization tool designed specifically for volatility traders who need to instantly recognize shifts in market structure. By comparing the current VIX Futures Term Structure against the previous trading day's close, this indicator provides a clear, real-time* view of the VIX Spot Index and the next available VX futures contracts. A key visual feature is the "Daily Drift" analysis, which automatically highlights the difference between today's curve (Cyan) and yesterday's curve (Gray/Dashed) with red or green fills, allowing you to immediately spot whether volatility is rising or falling across the term structure.
Unlike standard indicators that rely solely on the Spot price, this script utilizes professional-grade logic to classify market stress into three distinct stages. It identifies a normal Contango environment (Green) when the Front Month (M1) is trading below the Second Month (M2), indicating a calm market where long volatility positions typically suffer from negative roll yield. The system issues a Spot Warning (Orange) if the Spot index overheats and exceeds M1 while the futures curve remains in Contango, often an early signal of building stress. Finally, it detects critical Backwardation (Red) when the futures curve physically inverts (M1 > M2), signaling that market participants are paying a premium for immediate protection.
Usage Note: Due to technical limitations in detecting contract expirations automatically, users must manually select the current "Front Month" contract (e.g., "G (Feb)") in the indicator settings to ensure correct alignment. Users can also configure server-side alerts to trigger specifically when the market flips into Backwardation.
*Note: To view real-time data for VX futures, a paid data subscription to CBOE (CFE) is required on TradingView. Otherwise, the data may be delayed.

Reversal Detection v3.1 - Real-Time Pro (Non-Repainting)Reversal Detection Pro v3.1 - Universal Non-Repainting
ACKNOWLEDGMENTS
Special thanks to @ksiva100 for extensive testing and detailed feedback on v3.0 that led to the major improvements in v3.1. Their real-world testing on GC, ES, NQ, NG, and CL futures across 3-5 minute timeframes identified critical issues with sensitivity scaling and helped shape the universal ATR-adaptive system that makes this version work seamlessly across all instruments and timeframes.
Community feedback like this is invaluable in creating better tools for all traders.
FULL DESCRIPTION:
OVERVIEW
Reversal Detection Pro v3.1 is a non-repainting reversal identification system designed for futures trading across all timeframes. The indicator uses ATR-adaptive thresholds combined with a zigzag-based pivot detection algorithm to identify confirmed price reversals. A triple EMA trend filter provides directional context, while optional supply/demand zones highlight key reversal areas.
The indicator automatically scales to any instrument's price level and volatility through its ATR-adaptive mechanism, eliminating the need for manual threshold adjustments when switching between instruments or timeframes.
KEY FEATURES
Non-Repainting Confirmation System
All confirmed reversal signals are final and do not disappear or move to different bars. The indicator includes an optional preview mode that shows potential reversals before confirmation, clearly labeled to distinguish them from confirmed signals. Users can add extra confirmation bars for additional validation before signals appear.
ATR-Adaptive Sensitivity
The indicator uses Average True Range (ATR) as its primary sensitivity mechanism. Five preset sensitivity levels (Very High, High, Medium, Low, Very Low) multiply the ATR by factors ranging from 0.8x to 3.5x. This approach automatically adapts to:
Different price levels (works equally on $25 micro futures and $25,000 instruments)
Varying volatility conditions (calm vs. volatile markets)
Multiple timeframes (1-minute through daily charts)
Different trading sessions (regular hours vs. after-hours)
Triple EMA Trend Detection
Three exponential moving averages (9, 14, and 21 periods) create a trend identification system. The info table displays current trend status as BULLISH, BEARISH, or NEUTRAL. Strong signals occur when a reversal aligns with the prevailing trend direction.
Supply and Demand Zones
Optional rectangular zones display at confirmed pivot points. These zones are color-coded (green for demand/support, red for supply/resistance) and can be configured for thickness, extension length, and maximum number displayed. Zones can be toggled on or off independently of reversal signals.
Information Display Table
A customizable table shows real-time indicator settings including:
Current signal mode (Confirmed Only, Preview, or Both)
Active sensitivity preset
ATR multiplier value
Percentage threshold
Current ATR reading
Calculated reversal threshold
Current trend status
Comprehensive Alert System
Eight different alert conditions cover all signal types:
Bullish reversal confirmed
Bearish reversal confirmed
Any reversal (combined)
EMA buy signal (trend change to bullish)
EMA sell signal (trend change to bearish)
Trend changed to bullish
Trend changed to bearish
Strong bullish (reversal + bullish trend aligned)
Strong bearish (reversal + bearish trend aligned)
HOW IT WORKS
Reversal Detection Algorithm
The indicator tracks price using a zigzag methodology that requires a minimum reversal amount before confirming a pivot. This reversal threshold is calculated using three components:
ATR Component (Primary): ATR × Sensitivity Multiplier
Percentage Component (Safety Floor): Close Price × Percentage Threshold
Absolute Component (Minimum Floor): Fixed dollar/point amount
The reversal threshold equals whichever of these three values is largest. This ensures appropriate sensitivity across all instruments and timeframes.
Pivot Confirmation Process
Price must move in one direction to establish a high or low pivot point. When price reverses by the minimum threshold amount, that pivot is confirmed. A reversal signal triggers when price subsequently breaks through the previous confirmed pivot in the opposite direction.
Signal Generation
Green labels and lines: Bullish reversal confirmed (buy signal)
Red labels and lines: Bearish reversal confirmed (sell signal)
Preview labels (if enabled): Potential reversals not yet confirmed (semi-transparent)
Trend Filter Operation
The 9/14/21 EMA system identifies trend direction:
BULLISH: 9 EMA > 14 EMA > 21 EMA, with price above 9 EMA
BEARISH: 9 EMA < 14 EMA < 21 EMA, with price below 9 EMA
NEUTRAL: EMAs not in sequential order
Strong signals occur when reversals align with trend direction.

Note current ATR and reversal threshold values
Observe recent reversal signal quality
Wait for Signal
Green label = potential long entry (bullish reversal)
Red label = potential short entry (bearish reversal)
Horizontal line shows reversal pivot level
Evaluate Signal Quality
Strongest signals align with trend (STRONG alerts)
Check if reversal occurs at supply/demand zone
Verify adequate volume on reversal bar
Execute Trade
Enter on signal confirmation
Place stop loss below/above reversal pivot line
Target next supply/demand zone or opposing reversal signal
Manage Position
Trail stop loss with price movement
Take partial profits at zones
Exit on opposing reversal signal or stop hit
Multi-Timeframe Analysis
For optimal results, use multiple timeframes:
Higher timeframe (3-5× larger): Determine overall trend direction
Trading timeframe: Execute trades on reversal signals
Lower timeframe (3-5× smaller): Fine-tune entries and exits
Example: Trade ES futures
1 Hour chart: Identify BULLISH trend
5 Minute chart: Take only green (long) reversal signals
1 Minute chart: Time precise entry after signal appears
IMPORTANT USAGE NOTES
Understanding Signal Timing
This is a reversal identification indicator, not a prediction tool. Signals appear AFTER price begins reversing from a pivot, not at the exact top or bottom. This is intentional design - the confirmation process ensures reliability at the cost of capturing the absolute extremes.
Timeframe and Signal Frequency
Higher timeframes naturally produce fewer signals. This is correct behavior:
Daily charts: 1-4 signals per month is normal
1-hour charts: 1-5 signals per week is normal
5-minute charts: 5-15 signals per day is normal
1-minute charts: 10+ signals per hour is normal
If you want more signals, either use a lower timeframe or higher sensitivity setting.
Optimal Market Conditions
Best performance occurs during:
Regular trading hours (RTH) with normal volume
Trending or ranging markets
Liquid instruments with tight spreads
Normal volatility environments
Reduced performance may occur during:
Major economic announcements (FOMC, NFP, CPI)
Opening gaps or halted trading
Extremely thin markets (after-hours, holidays)
Flash crash or extreme volatility events
Risk Management Requirements
Always use stop losses (place beyond reversal pivot)
Position size appropriately (1-2% account risk per trade)
Account for commissions and slippage in planning
Never trade with funds you cannot afford to lose
Paper trade new settings before using real capital

Gapper SHORT Signal# TradingView Publication Description
## Title
**Gapper Short Signal - Genetic Optimized (81.8% Win Rate)**
---
## Short Description
Data-driven short signal for fading overextended gap-up stocks. Optimized using genetic algorithms on 166 historical gappers.
---
## Full Description
### 📊 What Is This?
A **precision short signal** designed specifically for fading gap-up stocks that have become overextended. Unlike indicators built on gut feeling or traditional rules, this signal was **discovered by a genetic algorithm** that analyzed 166 real gapper stocks over 70 trading days.
The algorithm tested thousands of signal combinations and evolved over 50 generations to find the exact conditions that preceded profitable short entries.
---
### 🎯 Performance (Backtest)
| Metric | Value |
|--------|-------|
| **Win Rate** | 81.8% |
| **Profit Factor** | 20.34 |
| **Stop Loss** | 3.4% |
| **Take Profit** | 8.6% |
*Based on 166 gapper stocks, $1-20 price range, >3% gap, >100k volume*
---
### 🔍 How It Works
The indicator fires a SHORT signal when **ALL 5 conditions** are met:
**1. Overextended Above VWAP**
Price must be trading more than 1.5 ATR above VWAP. This means the stock has run too far, too fast and is stretched like a rubber band.
**2. Volume Dying Down**
NOT a volume climax (RVOL < 3x). We want to see buying pressure fading, not a blowoff top with massive volume.
**3. Rejection Candle (Key Signal!)**
Upper wick must be >51% of the candle range. This is the smoking gun - price tried to push higher but got slammed back down. Sellers are stepping in.
**4. Still Elevated**
Price must be at least 6.66% above the low of day. We want to short stocks that are still high, not ones that have already crashed.
**5. Time Window**
Within the first 5.5 hours of trading. Gapper fades work best when there's still time in the day for the move to play out.
---
### 📈 Best Used On
- **Timeframe:** 1-minute charts
- **Stocks:** Gap-up stocks (>3% gap from previous close)

### 🧬 The Science Behind It
This indicator wasn't designed by a human - it was **evolved**.
A genetic algorithm started with 100 random indicator configurations, each with different entry conditions and thresholds. These "individuals" were backtested against historical gapper data, and the top performers were bred together to create the next generation.
After 50 generations of evolution, only the fittest signals survived. The result is the 5-condition setup you see here.
**Why genetic optimization?**
- Removes human bias from signal design
- Tests combinations humans would never think of
- Finds exact threshold values (not round numbers)
- Adapts to real market data, not theory
---
### ⚠️ Important Notes
**This is a tool, not a guarantee.**
- Backtest performance ≠ future results
- 11 trades in backtest = small sample size
- Always use proper position sizing
- Paper trade before going live
- Works best on liquid stocks with tight spreads
**Risk Management is Everything**
The 81.8% win rate means nothing if you size incorrectly or move your stops. Stick to the 3.4% stop / 8.6% target that the algorithm optimized for.
---
### 💡 Trading Tips
1. **Wait for the signal** - Don't anticipate. Let all 5 conditions align.
2. **Check the table** - Use the info panel to see which conditions are met.
3. **Respect the stop** - The 3.4% stop is part of the edge. Don't widen it.
4. **Let winners run** - 8.6% target gives you 2.5:1 reward-to-risk.
5. **One trade per setup** - Don't re-enter if stopped out.

Trend Analysis / Momentum / Volatility
UT Bot Alerts [2026 Elite Edition]🚀 Overview
The UT Bot 2026 Elite Edition is the ultimate evolution of the legendary volatility trading system originally conceptualized by QuantNomad. While the original tool revolutionized trend following, this "Elite Edition" introduces Asymmetric Sensitivity—a professional feature that acknowledges a fundamental market truth: Assets do not fall the same way they rise.
This script allows you to decouple your Long and Short strategies, offering surgical precision for both bull runs and bear crashes, all while monitoring trade health via a new real-time Safety Dashboard.
🧠 The Logic: Why "Elite"?
Most trailing stop systems use a single setting (e.g., Key: 2, ATR: 10) for both buying and selling. This is efficient but often suboptimal.
Bull Markets often grind up slowly (requiring looser stops to avoid shakeouts).
Bear Markets often crash quickly (requiring tighter, faster stops to protect capital).
The Dual-Engine Solution: This script runs two separate calculation engines simultaneously:
The Buy Engine (Ceiling): Calculates the resistance ceiling using its own Sensitivity (Key) and Smoothness (ATR) settings.
The Sell Engine (Floor): Calculates the support floor using entirely different settings.
This means you can have a "Slow & Steady" settings for buying Bitcoin, but a "Fast & Aggressive" setting for shorting it, all within the same indicator.
✨ Key Features
1. Asymmetric "Dual-Key" Sensitivity
Buy Key & ATR: Tune your entry sensitivity for long positions.
Sell Key & ATR: Tune your short parameters independently.
Why this matters: You can now set a wide stop for trending up, but a tight stop for trending down to capture profit instantly when momentum breaks.
2. The Safety Dashboard (HUD) A professional Heads-Up Display (HUD) located in the top-right corner. It provides critical "Flight Data" that simple buy/sell labels hide:
Status: Instantly see if you are net Long or Short.
Stop Price (The Kill Level): The exact price where the trend will flip. Use this for your hard Stop Loss orders.
Active ATR: Displays the current volatility width. High ATR = High Volatility (Wide Stops). Low ATR = Consolidation (Tight Stops).
3. Heikin Ashi Smoothing
Includes a built-in toggle to calculate signals based on Heikin Ashi candles while viewing standard candles. This filters out "noise" and wicks, often keeping you in a trend longer.
4. Pine Script v6 Optimization
Refactored for the latest Pine Script v6 standards, ensuring faster execution and compatibility with the latest TradingView features.
🛠️ How to Use (Best Practices)
For Scalping (1m - 5m Timeframes):
Suggestion: Set Sell Key lower (e.g., 1.5) and Sell ATR lower (e.g., 5) to react quickly to drops. Keep Buy Key higher to avoid choppy fake-outs. I personally use the default settings on the 3M time frame with Gold and NQ with a high rate of success.
For Swing Trading (4h - Daily):
Suggestion: Increase Buy ATR (e.g., 30-100) to smooth out the noise of daily fluctuations.
The Dashboard:
Always check the Stop Price on the dashboard before entering. If the Stop Price is too far away from the current price, your risk might be too high for the trade size.
🙏 Credits & Appreciation
This script stands on the shoulders of giants.
Original Logic: Huge props and credit to QuantNomad for the original UT Bot strategy. His work laid the foundation for volatility-based trailing stops on TradingView.
Concept: Based on the "Ceiling/Floor" volatility theory.
Development: Enhanced and refactored by for the 2026 market environment.
Disclaimer: This tool is for information purposes only. Past performance does not guarantee future results.
Adaptive Trend & SL SystemAdaptive Trend & Risk System
1. The Problem: "Naked" Signals
Most trend indicators on TradingView have a fatal flaw: they tell you when to enter, but they never tell you when to leave . They give you a "Buy" signal, but leave you guessing about where to place your Stop Loss or where to take profit.
A signal without a risk management plan is not a strategy—it's a gamble.
2. The Solution: A Complete Trading System
The Adaptive Trend & Risk System (ATS) is designed to be a complete "Turnkey" trading suite. It doesn't just generate signals; it manages the entire lifecycle of the trade.
It combines three distinct market concepts into one clean overlay:
Trend Detection: Uses a Hull Moving Average (HMA) baseline to determine the immediate market flow.
Signal Filtering: Uses the Average Directional Index (ADX) to filter out "fakeouts" and weak trends.
Dynamic Risk Management: Automatically calculates Volatility-Based (ATR) Stop Losses and Risk:Reward targets the moment a signal is generated.
3. How It Works (The Math)
The script operates on a strict "State Machine" logic. It remembers the state of your trade bar-by-bar.
The Entry (Strong Signals)
A "STRONG" signal is only generated when two conditions are met:
Price crosses the Trend Baseline.
ADX (Trend Strength) is above the threshold (Default: 25).
Note: Weak signals (small triangles) are shown when price crosses the baseline but ADX is low. These are risky and should be treated with caution.
The Stop Loss (Red/Green Crosses ++++)
Upon a strong entry, the script calculates a Stop Loss based on the Average True Range (ATR).
Long SL: Low - (ATR * Multiplier)
Short SL: High + (ATR * Multiplier)
The "Hard" Stop: Unlike trailing stops that move every bar, this SL is fixed to the volatility at the moment of entry. It only disappears if price hits it (marked by an Orange X ) or if a reversal signal occurs.
The Targets (Blue/Purple Dots oooo)
The script projects two Take Profit levels based on your risk:
TP1 (Blue Dots): 1.5x your Risk.
TP2 (Purple Dots): 3.0x your Risk.
Smart Visuals: If price hits TP1, the dots disappear to keep your chart clean, letting you focus on TP2.
4. How to Use This Indicator
Step 1: Wait for a "STRONG" Label. Do not trade every crossover. Wait for the large triangle with the text label.
Step 2: Place your Entry at the close of the signal bar.
Step 3: Place your Physical Stop Loss exactly at the level of the Green/Red Crosses .
Step 4: Place Limit Orders at the Blue Dots (TP1) and Purple Dots (TP2) .
Management:
If the Orange X appears, your Stop Loss was hit. Exit the trade immediately.
If a Weak Signal (small triangle) appears against your trade, consider tightening your stops, as momentum may be fading.
5. Settings Guide
Trend Baseline Length: Controls the sensitivity of the trend filter. Higher = Fewer signals, longer trends.
ATR Length: Controls how "volatile" the Stop Loss calculation is.
Stop Loss Multiplier: The "breathing room" for your trade. 2.0 is standard. 3.0 is for volatile assets like Crypto.
TP Risk:Reward Ratios: Fully customizable. Default is 1.5R and 3.0R.

Universal Adaptive Tracking🙏🏻 Behold, this is UAT (Universal Adaptive Tracker) , with less words imma proceed how it compares with alternatives:
^^ comparison with non-adaptive quadratic regression (purple line), that has higher overshoots, less precision
^^ comparison with JMA and its adaptive gain. JMA’s gain is heavily limited, while UAT’s negative and positive gains are soft-saturated with p-order Möbius transform
This drop is inspired by, dedicated to, and made will all love towards Jurik Research , who retired in October 2k21. When some1 steps out, some1 has to step in, and that time it’s me (again xd). But there’s some history u gotta know:
Some history u gotta know:
In ~2008 dudes from forexfactory reverse engineered Jurik Moving Average
In late 1990s dudes from Jurik Research approximated the best possible adaptive tracking filter for evolution of prices via engineering miracles
Today in 2k26, me I'm gonna present to you the real mathematical objects/entities behind JMA top-edge engineered approximates. You will prolly be even more happy now then all the dem together back then.
Why all this?
When we talk about object tracking stuff, e.g. air defense, drones, missiles, projectiles, prices, etc, it all comes down to adaptive control and (Position & Velocity & Acceleration) aka PVA state space models (the real stuff many of you count as DSP ).
Why? Cuz while position (P) : (mean), or position & velocity (PV) : (linear regression) are stable enough in dem own ways, Position & Velocity & Acceleration (PVA) : (quadratic regression+) require adaptivity do be stable. And real world stuff needs PVA, due to non-linearity for starters.
So that’s why. If your goal is Really smoothing and no lag, u gotta go there. I see a lot of folks are crazy with it and want it, so here is it, for y’all. And good news, this is perfect for your favorite Moving Windows.
How to use it
The upper study:
The final filter (main state): just as you use other fast smoothers, MAs, etc, you know better than me here
You can also turn in volatility bands in script’s style settings, these do not require any adjustments
Finally, you can turn on, in the same place, separate trackers each based on negative and positive volatility exclusively. When both are almost equal, that indicates stability & persistence in markets. May sound like it’s nothing important, but I've never seen anything like it before. Also, if you'd allow your our inner mental gym hero gloriously arise, you can argue that these 2 separate trackers represent 2 fair prices (one for sellers, one for buyers). All better then 1 imaginary fair price for both (forget about it)
The lower study:
The lower study: you can analyze streams of upward of downward volatilities separately. This is incredibly powerful
You can also turn these off and turn on neg & pos intensities, and use them as trend detector, when each or both cross 1.5 (naturally neutral) threshold.
^^ Upper study with expected typical and maximum volatility bands turned On

What you got in the end is non-linear, adaptive, lighting fast when needed and slow when required price tracking. All built upon real math entities/objects, not a brilliantly engineered approximation of them. No parameters to optimize, data tells it all.
... It all starts from a process model, in our cause this is...
MFPM (Mechanical Feedback Price Model)
Doesn’t make gaussian assumptions like most quant mainstream tech, accepts that innovations are Laplace “at best”, relies in L inf and L0 spaces.
I created this model neither trynna fit non-fitting ARMA / variants, nor trynna be silly assuming that price state evolution and markets are random.
Theory behind it: if no new volume comes, then price evolution would be simply guided by the feedback based on previous trading activity, pushing prices towards the midrange between 2 latest datapoints, being the main force behind so called “pullbacks” and reason why most pullbacks end just a bit past 50% of a move.
This is the Real mechanical feedback based mean reversion, that is always there in the markets no matter what, think of it as a background process that is always there, and fresh new volume deviates prices away from it. Btw, this can also be expressed as AR2 with both phis = 0.5 .
Then I separate positive and negative innovations from this model and process them separately, reflecting the asymmetry between buy and sell forces, smth that most forget. Both of these follow exponential distribution . Each stream has its own memory so here we use recursive operators . We track maximum innovations (differences between real and expected datapoints) with exponentially decaying damping factor, and keep tracking typical innovation, with the same factor.
Then we calculate what’s called in lovely audio engineering as “ crest factor ”, the difference is we don’t do RMS and stuff. But hey again we work with laplace innovations, so we keep things in L0 and L inf spirit. Then we go a couple of steps further, making this crest factor truly relative (resolution agnostic), and then, most importantly, we apply a natural saturation on it based on p-order Möbius transform, but not with arbitrary p and L, but guided by informational limits of the data. These final "intensity" parameters are what we need next to make our object tracking adaptive.
Extended Beta(2, 2) Window
This is imo the main part of this. Looking at tapering windows in DSP and how wavelets are made from derivatives of PDF functions of probability distributions, I figured that why use just one derivative? That made me come up with Universal Moving Average , that combines PDF and CDF of Beta(2, 2) distribution . And that is fine for P (position) tracking model.
Here we need PVA (position & velocity & acceleration). We can realize that everything starts from PDF, and by adding derivatives and anti-derivatives of it as factors of final window weights, we can create smth truly unique, a weightset that is non-arbitrary and naturally provides response alike quadratic regression does, But, naturally smoothed.
Why do I consider this a discovery, a primordial math object? Because x^2 itself and Beta(2, 2) based on it are the only primitives, esp out of all these dozens of DSP tapering windows, that provide you a finite amount of derivatives. You can keep differentiating Hann window until the kingdom f come, while Welch window aka Beta(2, 2) has a natural stopping point, because the 3rd derivative is 0, so we can’t use it. Symmetrically, we do 2 steps up from PDF, getting 1st and second anti-derivatives. What’s lovely, symmetrically, 3rd antiderivative even tho exist, it stops making any sense. 2nd one still makes sense, it’s smth like “potential” of probability distribution, not really discussed in mainstream open access sources.
Finally, the last part is to introduce adaptivity using these intensity exponents we’ve calculated with MFPM. We do 2 separate trackers, one using the negative intensity exponent, another one uses positive intensity exponent.
And at the end, even tho using both together is cool, the final state estimate is calculated simply as the state which intensity has higher.
^^ impulse response of our final kernel with fixed (non adaptive) intensity exponents: 1 (blue) and 2 (red). You see it's all about phase
…
And that’s all folks.
…
Actually no …
Last, not least, is the ability to add additional innovation weight to the kernel:
^^ Weighting by innovations “On”. Provides incredible tracking precision, paid with smoothness. I think this screenshot, showing what happened after the gap, and how the tracker managed to react, explains it all.

[codapro] Elite Momentum & Smart Money Detector
Elite Momentum & Smart Money Detector
Overview
The Elite Detector is a non-repainting indicator that merges Smart Money Concepts, Adaptive Volatility-Based Momentum, and Multi-Timeframe Trend Confluence to identify high-probability trade setups. This tool helps confirm institutional intent and market pressure before triggering actionable signals.
Core Systems
Smart Money Concepts (SMC)
• Highlights institutional order blocks
• Detects equal highs/lows as liquidity zones
• Automatically cleans up outdated zones for clarity
Adaptive Momentum Engine
• Momentum calculated with volatility-adjusted smoothing
• Normalized scale from -100 to +100
• Candle coloring reflects trend strength dynamically
Squeeze Detection System
• Flags volatility contraction zones using Bollinger and Keltner channels
• Background shading highlights compression zones
• Histogram shows directional breakout pressure
Multi-Timeframe Trend Validation
• Aligns signals with higher timeframe momentum
• Built-in logic auto-selects appropriate HTF per chart
• Reduces false signals and improves timing
Signal Logic
Buy Signal appears when:
Momentum crosses from negative to positive
Squeeze condition is active
Higher timeframe confirms bullish trend
Sell Signal appears when:
Momentum crosses from positive to negative
Squeeze condition is active
Higher timeframe confirms bearish trend
All signals are non-repainting and appear only once all conditions are met.
Visual Dashboard (Top-Right Corner)
Displays real-time confirmation across five categories:
Momentum: Current trend direction and strength
Squeeze: Indicates if volatility is compressed
HTF Trend: Confirms higher-timeframe alignment
Volatility: Current volatility phase (low, normal, or high)
Signal Status: Buy, Sell, or Neutral (Wait)
Chart Visuals
Candle Colors:
• Bright green/red = Strong momentum
• Faded green/red = Weak momentum
Background Colors:
• Orange = Squeeze is active
• Clear = Normal market activity
Boxes:
• Green = Bullish order blocks
• Red = Bearish order blocks
Dashed Lines:
• Red = Equal highs (liquidity zones above)
• Green = Equal lows (liquidity zones below)
Alert Conditions
Includes three prebuilt alerts for automation and webhook systems:
Elite Buy Signal
Elite Sell Signal
Squeeze Activation
These alerts allow users to respond to market shifts in real time or integrate with automated trading workflows.
Best Practices
Wait for Confluence: Confirm all three systems (momentum, squeeze, HTF trend) before entering
Watch Order Blocks: Institutional zones often act as support/resistance
Monitor Liquidity Zones: Be cautious of stop hunts near equal highs/lows
Use Dashboard Cues: Let the HUD validate your setup
Always Use Risk Management: This tool increases probability, not certainty
Example Setup:
1. Squeeze background appears
2. Buy signal triangle confirms
3. Dashboard shows: Momentum strong up, Squeeze on, HTF trend up
4. Price bounces off green order block
→ High-probability long entry
Why It Works
This tool leverages multiple uncorrelated concepts to filter low-quality trades and highlight setups with real institutional backing:
Order Blocks and Liquidity Zones track smart money footprints
Volatility-adjusted Momentum captures real energy shifts
Multi-Timeframe Confluence confirms trades in the broader context
Non-repainting signals ensure reliability
Final Note
The Elite Detector is designed to show you:
Where smart money is positioned,
When the market is coiling for a move,
and Which direction is supported by momentum and trend.
Use it as your high-probability entry engine — across any market or timeframe.

Luminous Volatility Flux [Pineify]```
Luminous Volatility Flux - Dynamic ATR Bands with Hull Moving Average Baseline
The Luminous Volatility Flux indicator is a sophisticated trend-following and volatility analysis tool that combines the responsiveness of the Hull Moving Average (HMA) with adaptive ATR-based bands that expand and contract based on real-time market volatility conditions. This indicator helps traders identify trend direction, volatility regimes, and potential breakout opportunities with high-probability entry signals.
Key Features
Hull Moving Average baseline for low-lag trend detection
Dynamic volatility bands that breathe with market conditions
Flux Factor system comparing short-term vs long-term ATR
Volatility-filtered breakout signals to reduce false entries
Gradient-filled zones for intuitive visual analysis
Real-time bar coloring based on trend direction
How It Works
The indicator operates on three core calculation layers:
1. Hull Moving Average Baseline
The foundation of this indicator is the Hull Moving Average, calculated using the formula: WMA(2*WMA(n/2) - WMA(n), sqrt(n)). Unlike traditional moving averages, the HMA dramatically reduces lag while maintaining smoothness. This makes it ideal for identifying trend changes earlier than conventional EMAs or SMAs. When the HMA is rising, the baseline turns green indicating bullish momentum; when falling, it turns red for bearish conditions.
2. Volatility Flux Factor
The unique aspect of this indicator is the Flux Factor calculation. It compares short-term ATR (default 14 periods) against long-term ATR (default 100 periods) to determine the current volatility regime:
Flux Factor > 1.0 = Volatility Expansion (market is more volatile than usual)
Flux Factor < 1.0 = Volatility Compression (market is in a squeeze)
This ratio creates a dynamic multiplier that causes the bands to expand during high volatility periods and contract during consolidation phases.
3. Dynamic Band Calculation
The upper and lower bands are calculated as: Baseline ± (Short ATR × Multiplier × Flux Factor). This means the bands automatically widen when volatility increases and tighten during quiet market conditions, providing context-aware support and resistance levels.
Trading Ideas and Insights
Trend Following: Trade in the direction of the baseline color. Green baseline suggests looking for long opportunities; red baseline suggests short opportunities.
Volatility Breakouts: The indicator plots "Flux" signals when price breaks above the upper band (bullish) or below the lower band (bearish) during volatility expansion phases. These signals indicate potential momentum continuation.
Mean Reversion: During compression phases (tight bands), prices often revert to the baseline. Consider taking profits near the bands and re-entering near the baseline.
Squeeze Detection: When bands are unusually tight (Flux Factor < 1), the market is coiling for a potential explosive move. Prepare for breakout trades.
How Multiple Indicators Work Together
This indicator integrates three distinct technical analysis concepts into a cohesive system:
The Hull Moving Average provides the trend direction foundation with minimal lag. The dual ATR comparison (short vs long) creates the Flux Factor that measures relative volatility. The dynamic bands combine both elements, using the HMA as the center and ATR-based deviations that scale with the Flux Factor.
The synergy works as follows: The HMA identifies the trend, the Flux Factor determines market regime (expansion vs compression), and the bands provide dynamic support/resistance levels. Breakout signals only trigger when all components align - price breaks the band AND volatility is expanding. This multi-layered approach filters out many false signals that would occur with static bands or simple moving average crossovers.
Unique Aspects
Unlike Bollinger Bands that use standard deviation, this indicator uses ATR ratio-based dynamic bands that better capture directional volatility
The Flux Factor concept is original - comparing two ATR timeframes to create a volatility regime indicator
Breakout signals are filtered by volatility expansion, reducing false signals during choppy, low-volatility conditions
Gradient fills provide instant visual feedback on the strength of the bullish or bearish zones
How to Use
Add the indicator to your chart. It works on all timeframes and instruments.
Observe the baseline color for overall trend direction (green = bullish, red = bearish).
Watch for band expansion/contraction to gauge volatility regime.
Look for "Flux" signals for potential breakout entries - these appear only during volatility expansion.
Use the gradient zones to identify potential support (lower green zone) and resistance (upper red zone) areas.
Customization
Baseline Length (default: 24) - Controls the HMA period. Lower values = more responsive but noisier; higher values = smoother but more lag.
ATR Length (default: 14) - Short-term ATR period for band calculation. Standard setting works well for most markets.
Flux Multiplier (default: 2.0) - Controls band width. Increase for wider bands (fewer signals), decrease for tighter bands (more signals).
Flux Sensitivity (default: 100) - Long-term ATR period for Flux Factor calculation. Higher values create a more stable volatility reference.
Conclusion
The Luminous Volatility Flux indicator offers traders a comprehensive view of market conditions by combining trend detection, volatility analysis, and signal generation into one elegant tool. Its adaptive nature makes it suitable for various market conditions - from trending markets where it identifies direction and momentum, to ranging markets where it highlights compression and potential breakout zones. The volatility-filtered signals help traders focus on high-probability setups while the visual gradient fills make chart analysis intuitive and efficient.
Note: This indicator is designed as a technical analysis tool. Always use proper risk management and consider multiple factors before making trading decisions. Past performance does not guarantee future results.

Hooke's Law: Market ElasticityHooke's Law: Market Elasticity is a physics-based mean reversion system that models price action using the principles of Classical Mechanics.
Most technical indicators treat the market as a purely statistical entity. This script takes a different approach, treating the market as a physical object with Mass (Volume) and Stiffness (Volatility) . By adapting Hooke’s Law of Elasticity (𝐹=−𝑘𝑋), it visualizes the "Tensile Stress" between price and its equilibrium, identifying the exact moment when a trend becomes unsustainable and must "snap back."
The Physics of Trading
In physics, Hooke's Law states that the force needed to extend a spring is proportional to the distance it is stretched. We map this to financial markets using four key components:
Equilibrium (𝑋=0): The "Resting State" of the market, calculated using a Volume-Weighted Moving Average (VWMA) . This represents the fair value where buyers and sellers agree.
2. Displacement (𝑋): The distance price travels away from this equilibrium.
3. Spring Constant (𝑘): We use Volatility (Standard Deviation) to measure the market's "stiffness."
• Low Volatility: The spring is loose; price can wander far without snapping.
• High Volatility: The spring is stiff; even small deviations create massive tension.
4. Force (𝐹): The calculation is weighted by Relative Volume . A price spike on low volume has low force (easy to reverse), while a spike on high volume carries high momentum (harder to reverse).
Visual Guide & Signals
The indicator uses a hierarchy of visuals to guide you through the trade lifecycle:
1. The Elastic Ribbon (Heatmap)
Connects Price to the Baseline. As the ribbon turns Solid White , the market has reached its Elastic Limit (Critical Zone). This is your warning that a move is overextended.
2. The "Golden" Labels (LONG / SHORT)
These are your Entry Signals . They appear only when the physics "snap" is confirmed by an internal momentum filter and price action.
3. The Small Circles (Minor Reversions)
These dots represent "Minor Snaps." They occur when the elastic tension releases, but the momentum filter hasn't fully confirmed a major reversal.
• Usage: These are excellent Early Warning signs or Scale-In points for aggressive traders.
Strategy: Entries, Exits & Take Profits
This script is designed as a complete system. Here is how to manage the trade using the visual cues:
• Entry: Wait for a LONG or SHORT label to appear.
• Stop Loss: Use the Solid White Line that appears automatically with the signal. If price touches this line, the physics setup has failed—exit immediately.
• Take Profit 1 (The Equilibrium): The Gray Baseline represents the market's center of gravity. In mean reversion trading, price tends to snap back to this line. This is the statistically highest-probability target.
• Take Profit 2 (The Circles): If you are in a trade and a Circle appears in the opposite direction, it indicates the market is experiencing counter-tension. This is an ideal place to secure partial profits or trail your stop.
Settings & Configuration
• Baseline Length (Default: 34): The lookback period for the Center of Gravity.
• Elasticity Limit (Default: 2.618): The Golden Ratio is used as the standard deviation threshold for the "Critical Zone."
• Volume Weighting (Default: True): Recommended. Adds the "Mass" component to the physics calculation.
• Stop Loss Buffer (Default: 0.5): The distance (in Sigma) for the Stop Loss placement.
Risk Disclaimer
Not Financial Advice: This indicator is designed for educational and analytical purposes only. It visualizes market data based on mathematical formulas (Hooke's Law and Statistical Deviation) and does not guarantee future performance or profits.
Market Risks: Financial trading involves significant risk. The "Critical Zones" and "Signals" generated by this script identify statistical extremes, but markets can remain irrational or overextended for long periods ("Plastic Deformation").
Usage: Do not trade blindly based on these signals. Always use this tool in conjunction with your own analysis, risk management, and stop-losses. The author assumes no responsibility for any trading losses incurred while using this script.
Konigs | Bollinger Band Mean Reversion (Session Filter)Core Idea:
In sideways markets, price tends to revert to the mean (the middle band).
Strategy:
Buy when price touches or moves below the lower band.
Sell when price reaches or exceeds the upper band.
Exit at the middle band (20-period moving average).
Confirm with: RSI/Stochastic or candle patterns for reversal at the bands.
Only works with low-volatility instruments:
EURCHF
Filter certain time to avoid unexpected volatility
