Trend Oscillator# Trend Oscillator: Advanced Technical Analysis Indicator
## Overview
The Trend Oscillator is a sophisticated technical analysis tool designed to identify market trends, momentum shifts, and potential reversal points. Unlike basic oscillators, this indicator combines key analytical approaches to provide a more comprehensive market analysis:
1. **Mean Deviation-Based Oscillator**:(160) At its core, it measures price deviations from moving averages normalized by mean deviation
2. **Fixed Reference Levels**: Clear overbought/oversold thresholds that define extreme market conditions
3. **Trend Filtering**: EMA(36)-based trend direction confirmation to reduce false signals
## Technical Foundation
### Core Calculation Method
The indicator derives its primary oscillator value using a normalized deviation method:
- Calculates a typical price (average of source + high + low)
- Measures the deviation of typical price from its moving average
- Normalizes this deviation by the mean deviation multiplied by a scaling factor (0.015)
This formula effectively creates a momentum oscillator that quantifies how far price has moved from its equilibrium value, relative to typical market volatility.
### Fixed Overbought/Oversold Levels
The Trend Oscillator uses consistent reference levels to identify extreme market conditions:
- Standardized overbought level set at +100
- Standardized oversold level set at -100
- Neutral zone centered around the zero line
These fixed thresholds provide reliable reference points for signal generation and trend strength assessment.
### Trend Filtering Mechanism
The indicator incorporates an EMA-based trend filter that:
- Calculates a directional bias using price position relative to its EMA 36
- Modifies oscillator interpretation based on the prevailing trend
- Helps distinguish between counter-trend corrections and actual reversals
## How to Use the Trend Oscillator
### For Trend Identification
- **Bullish trend**: Oscillator above zero with positive slope
- **Bearish trend**: Oscillator below zero with negative slope
- **Trend strength**: Distance from zero line indicates trend intensity
- **Trend confirmation**: When oscillator and trend filter align
### For Entry Signals
- **Long entry opportunities**:
- Oscillator crossing above the signal line during uptrend
- Oscillator exiting oversold territory with trend filter positive
- Price showing strength while oscillator moves from negative to positive
- **Short entry opportunities**:
- Oscillator crossing below the signal line during downtrend
- Oscillator exiting overbought territory with trend filter negative
- Price showing weakness while oscillator moves from positive to negative
### For Exit Signals
- **Taking profits**: When oscillator approaches extreme levels in your trade direction
- **Stop-loss placement**: When oscillator crosses signal line against your position
- **Trend change warning**: When oscillator crosses zero line against your position
## Customization Options
### General Settings
- **Length**: (160)Controls the calculation period for the oscillator (higher values create smoother, less sensitive readings)
- **Source**: The price data input (close, open, high, low, hl2, hlc3, etc.)
### Signal Line Settings
- **Signal Line**: Optional smoothed version of the oscillator for crossover signals
- **Signal Length**:(36) Determines signal line responsiveness
### Level Settings
- **Overbought/Oversold Levels**: Standard thresholds that define extreme conditions
### Trend Filter Settings
- **Trend Period**: Lookback period for trend direction calculation
- **Trend Source**: Price data used for trend determination
### Visual Settings
- **Show Background Color**: Toggles colored background based on oscillator readings
- **Background Transparency**: Controls the opacity of background coloring
## Trading Strategy Applications
### Trend-Following Approach
1. Enter in the direction of the prevailing trend when:
- Oscillator and trend filter align
- Oscillator crosses signal line in trend direction
- Price pulls back to neutral zone during strong trend
2. Exit when:
- Oscillator crosses signal line against position
- Trend filter changes direction
- Oscillator reaches extreme level in your trade direction
### Counter-Trend Approach
1. Look for reversal opportunities when:
- Oscillator reaches extreme overbought/oversold levels
- Signal line crossover occurs at extreme readings
- Price action confirms potential reversal
2. Exit when:
- Target price levels are reached
- Oscillator returns to neutral zone
- New signals emerge in opposite direction
## Indicator Strengths
- Combines momentum and trend analysis in one comprehensive tool
- Consistent reference levels provide reliable benchmarks
- Reduces false signals through trend filter confirmation
- Visual color-coding provides intuitive market context
## Best Practices
- Effective on all timeframes for trend analysis
- Use in conjunction with support/resistance or price action
- Start with default settings and gradually adjust to your trading style and instrument
- Consider the overall market context when interpreting signals
The Trend Oscillator offers traders a comprehensive technical analysis framework that goes beyond simplistic overbought/oversold readings by incorporating trend context and normalized deviation methodology—providing a nuanced approach to market analysis with clear, consistent reference points.
Zero Lag MTF Moving Average by CoffeeshopCryptoBased on Moving Average Types supplied by @TradingView www.tradingview.com
Ideas and code enhanced to show higher timeframe by @CoffeeShopCrypto
It’s time to take the guesswork out of moving averages and multiple timeframes when day trading. Moving averages are a cornerstone of many trading strategies, often viewed as dynamic support and resistance levels. Traders rely on these levels to anticipate price reactions, whether it’s a bounce in a trending market or a reversal in a ranging one. Additionally, the direction and alignment of multi timeframe moving averages—whether they’re moving in the same direction or diverging—provide critical clues about market momentum and potential reversals. However, the traditional higher timeframe moving average indicators force traders to wait for higher timeframe candles to close, creating lag and missed opportunities.
The Old Way
For example: If you are on a 5 minute chart and you want to observe the location and direction of a 30 minute chart Moving Average, you'll need to wait for a total of 6 candles to close, and again every 6 candles after that. This only creates more lag.
The New Way
Now there is no waiting for high timeframe session candles to close. No matter what timeframe Moving Average you want to know about, this indicator will show you its location on your current chart at any time in real time.
For those who prefer Bollinger Bands, this indicator adds a whole new dimension to your strategy. Traders often wait for price action to break outside the lower time frame Bollinger bands before considering a trade, while still seeking key support or resistance levels beyond them. But if you don't know the position of your higher time frame Bollinger, you could be trading into a trap. With Zero Lag Multi Timeframe Moving Average, you can view both your current and higher timeframe Bollinger Bands simultaneously with zero waiting. This lets you instantly see when price action is traveling between the bands of either timeframe or breaking through both—indicating a strong trend in that direction. Additionally, when both sets of Bollinger Bands overlap at the same price levels, it highlights areas of strong consolidation and ranging conditions, giving you a clear picture of market dynamics. This is a key element in price action that tells you there is currently no direction to the market and both the current and higher time frames are flat.
Enter Zero Lag Multi Timeframe Moving Average—the ultimate tool for real-time higher timeframe moving averages and Bollinger Bands. This innovative indicator eliminates the delay, delivering instant, precise values for higher timeframe averages and bands, even on open candles. Seamlessly combining current and higher timeframe data, it allows traders to identify key moments where moving averages or Bollinger Bands align or diverge, signaling market conditions. Whether you’re gauging the strength of a trend, pinpointing potential reversals, or identifying consolidation zones, Zero Lag Multi Timeframe Moving Average gives you the clarity needed to make better trading decisions according to market conditions.
Why is this "Mashup" of moving averages different and important?
Honestly its really about the calculation thats imported through the "import library" function.
Heres what it does:
The ZLMTF-MA is designed to help traders easily see where higher timeframe moving averages and Bollinger Bands are—without needing to switch chart timeframes or wait for those larger candles to close. It works by adjusting common moving average types like SMA, EMA, and VWMA to show what they would look like if they were based on a higher timeframe, right on your current chart. This helps users stay focused on their main timeframe while still having a clear view of the bigger picture, making it easier to spot trend direction, key support and resistance levels, and overall market structure. The goal is to keep things simple, fast, and more visually informative for everyday traders.
Bollinger Bands
When working with Bollinger Bands, a common strategy is to take the trades once price action has escaped through the top or bottom of your current Bollinger Band.
A false breakout occurs when both Bollinger Bands are not moving in the same direction as eachother or when they are overlapping.
Moving Averages as Support and Resistance:
Traders who use Moving Averages as support or resistance, looking for rejections or failures of these areas can now see multiple timeframe price action instantly and simultaneously.
Trading Setup Examples:
Price Action Scenario 1:
Higher Timeframe Ranging-
When price action breaks through a current moving average headed toward a higher timeframe moving average, trades are taken with caution if the moving averages are converging.
Price Action Scenario 2:
Strong Trending Market -
If the moving averages are in the same direction, and your price action is now leading the low timeframe moving average, you have re-entered a strong trend.
Price Action Scenario 3:
High Timeframe Rejections -
If you have a rejection of a higher timeframe moving average, and your both averages are still diverging, this is the end of a pullback as you re-enter a strong trend in the original direction
Price Action Scenario 4:
Trend Reversals -
If you close beyond both the low and high timeframe moving averages, you can consider that price action is strong enough to change direction here and you should prepare for trade setups in the opposite direction of the previous.
HTF MA Label Information:
Even if your high timeframe moving average is turned off, you can still see this label.
It gives you a quick reminder of what high timeframe settings you have used to see MA values.
Ultimate NATR█ | Overview
This N-ATR (Normalized Average True Range) volatility indicator illustrates the trend of percentage-based candle volatility over a self-defined number of bars (period). The primary objective of the indicator is to highlight periods of high or low volatility, which can be exploited within the cyclical logic of volatility contraction and expansion. If market behavior is inherently cyclical, it naturally follows that candle volatility itself also exhibits cyclical characteristics.
It can therefore be defined as a recurring pattern:
Low Volatility --> High Volatility --> Low Volatility -->
Here is a concrete example of the cyclical phases of volatility, which compresses during Accumulation or Distribution phases, and then explodes with a mark-up or mark-down in price.

█ | N-ATR Calculation
The N-ATR function is built upon the ATR (Average True Range), the quintessential volatility indicator.
Once the ATR_period is defined, the N-ATR is calculated using the following formula:
N-ATR = 100 * ATR / close
A moving average of the N-ATR completes the main indicator curve (yellow), making the function smoother and less sensitive to the instantaneous fluctuations of individual candles.
SMA_natr = sum(natr_i) / ATR_period
natr = 100 * ta.atr(periodo_ATR) / close
media_natr = ta.sma(natr, media_len)
█ | Settings
Show selected calc period : allows you to display or hide a background color that extends from the initial calculation date to the current bar, or from the first available bar if the selected date is earlier.
Set data range for ST.DEV : this setting defines the number of bars over which the standard deviation is calculated—an essential foundational element for plotting the upper and lower curves relative to the N-ATR, as well as for defining the statistical ranges in the tables overlaid on the price chart.
Static Levels : these are user-defined input values representing N-ATR value thresholds, used to classify table values within the ranges L1–L2 / L2–L3 / L3–L4 / >L4. To be meaningful, the user is expected to conduct separate statistical analysis using a spreadsheet or external data analysis tools or languages.
Coefficients x, w, y : these are input values used in the code to calculate statistical ranges and the bands above and below the N-ATR. For example, when expressing the statistical range as μ ± nσ, n can take the value of x, w, or y. By default, the values are x=1, w=2, y=3. However, as explained, they can be customized to represent wider or narrower statistical clusters, depending on the user's analytical preference.
█ | Tables
Static Levels : when the boolean button "Fixed Levels" is active, the table counts and distributes the data across five ranges, defined by the custom input values L1, L2, L3, and L4. Studying the table immediately answers the question: "Have I set appropriate values for the L_x levels?"
If the majority of data points fall within the lowest range, it indicates that the levels are spaced too far apart; conversely, if most values are in the "> L4" range, the levels are likely too narrow.
From left to right, the table also displays the probability that the current candle might move from its current range to the next one (Update Prob.); the absolute frequency of each range and the relative frequency are shown in the rightmost column.
Dynamic Levels : alternatively, you can deselect "Fixed Levels" to obtain an auto-calculated / self-adjusting representation of the N-ATR and its bands, based on the standard deviation input settings. In this case, the table takes on a more statistical form, useful for analyzing the frequency of outliers beyond a certain standard deviation, as defined by the largest multiplicative coefficient "y".
This visualization may also be preferred when aiming to study the standard deviation of the N-ATR in greater depth for a given asset, timeframe, and configuration more broadly.
█ | Next-to-Price Label
Information in the label next to the live price: if the first settings button in the indicator, "Fixed levels", is enabled (true), a label appears next to the price showing information about the relative position of the N-ATR associated with the current candle.
Specifically, if:
natr ≤ L1, ⇨ "Minimum-"
natr > L1 and natr ≤ L2, ⇨ "Minimum+"
natr > L2 and natr ≤ L3, ⇨ "Neutral L3"
natr > L3 and natr ≤ L4, ⇨ "Topping L4"
natr > L4, ⇨ "Excess L4: natr > V4"
Additionally, the corresponding N-ATR range is displayed to the right of the evaluated category for the individual candle.
1-Please note: this allows you to avoid constantly checking the N-ATR curve, especially when working in full-screen mode and focusing solely on the price chart for a cleaner view.
2-Please note : unfortunately, the informational label is not available in Dynamic display mode.
█ | Conclusion
• This indicator captures a snapshot of market turbulence. Whether currently unfolding or approaching, the combination of volatility breakout forecasting with price structure analysis—further evaluated based on periods of compression or high turbulence—offers traders a powerful tool for identifying trend-aligned trade opportunities.
• The accompanying analytical tables enhance the indicator by enabling a statistical interpretation of the likelihood that certain excess thresholds will be reached. Based on this data, traders can gain deeper insight into the nature of the asset, identify outlier volatility levels, and strengthen the hedging of their trades. Used as a filter, this indicator significantly improves win rate potential.
Please note : the indicator is shown here on a black background. I suggest you trying it on a white layout as well, so you can decide which visualization best suits your preferences.
ADR/ATR Ranges & DashboardADR/ATR Ranges & Dashboard
Description:
The ADR/ATR Ranges & Dashboard indicator is a comprehensive tool designed to visualize key market volatility levels and provide traders with a clear daily framework. This script combines Average Daily Range (ADR) and Average True Range (ATR) metrics across multiple timeframes to assist in defining realistic intraday price targets and stop levels.
Key Features:
ADR Levels (Upper/Lower) plotted automatically based on a customizable period.
Daily High/Low and Previous Day High/Low plotted for context and range awareness.
Custom Range High/Low: Define your own time range to track session-specific extremes.
Dashboard Panel summarizing ADR values, distances to key levels, and custom range data.
Multi-timeframe ATR Dashboard (M1, M5, M15, H1, H4, D1) for detailed volatility insight.
Fully customizable colors and line styles (via the Style tab).
Adjustable dashboard font size and position.
How ADR differs from ATR:
ADR calculates the average difference between daily highs and lows over a set number of days — showing how much price typically moves per day.
ATR measures the average range (including gaps) within a given timeframe — providing a more comprehensive view of volatility.
Ideal for:
Day traders, scalpers, and swing traders needing clear intraday structure.
Volatility-based trading strategies (range breakouts, mean reversion, etc.).
Identifying realistic take-profit and stop-loss zones based on historical price behavior.

Atlas BBTlevelsAtlas BBTlevels is a custom Bollinger Bands-based indicator that measures the momentum and strength of price trends using the difference between short- and long-period Bollinger Bands. Inspired by John Bollinger’s official tools like BBTrend, %b, and Bandwidth, this script adds adjustable horizontal threshold levels so traders can mark important reaction zones on their charts.
It visualizes when markets may be entering overheated or exhausted conditions — either for trend continuation or potential reversals — and works across crypto, stocks, forex, spot, or perpetual charts.
How I personally use it:
I apply Atlas BBTlevels across three timeframes:
Low timeframe (LTF): 5m–15m
Mid timeframe (MTF): 1h–6h
High timeframe (HTF): 1d–2d
I review where the indicator historically spiked during major moves. For example, if the 4-hour chart shows repeated spikes to +10 or −10, I’ll set my positive and negative thresholds near those levels. This lets me anticipate zones where the market may reverse, cool off, or break out. I then compare LTF, MTF, and HTF levels to look for confluence. When multiple timeframes align near key levels, it gives me higher confidence to prepare for a trade — but I always combine this with price action and other confirmation tools.
How others can use it:
Identify overbought/oversold zones by adjusting the thresholds to match historical extremes on your chosen asset.
Use it as a trend strength gauge: when the histogram is near or above the top threshold, the trend is likely strong; when it fades back toward zero, momentum is weakening.
Watch for volatility expansions or contractions as the indicator accelerates away from or returns toward zero.
Combine it with price action (support/resistance, trendlines, chart patterns) or other momentum tools to reduce false signals.
Apply it across multiple timeframes to look for confluence — this increases reliability compared to using it on just one chart.
Important tips:
Positive spikes (above zero) usually indicate strength or overextension upward; negative spikes (below zero) show weakness or downward exhaustion.
You can reverse the color logic if you want (for example, highlight negative spikes as green for buy interest and positive spikes as red for sell interest) — this is just a visual preference.
This is not a standalone buy/sell system. Always combine it with other tools, market context, and risk management.
Ultimate CoinTadpoleTrader Indicator Altcoins (UCTA)2.0Overview
UCTA (Ultimate CoinTadpoleTrader Indicator for Altcoins) is designed to help traders identify key turning points in volatile altcoin markets. It applies RSI momentum analysis, along with references to Stochastic RSI’s overbought/oversold zones and MACD expansion behavior to filter out low-probability signals. The script looks for repeated RSI dips below certain thresholds and subsequent recoveries, among other internal checks, to provide clear Buy/Sell icons on the chart.
1. Core Concepts
Multi-Stage RSI & Oscillator References
UCTA primarily relies on standard RSI thresholds (e.g., ≤30 or ≥70) but also references Stochastic RSI for deeper confirmation in potential overextended markets.
When the script detects repeated dives into oversold territory or significant momentum shifts, it generates stronger signals.
MACD Expansion Consideration
Internally, the script checks for moments when MACD lines diverge or “expand” notably, indicating an accelerating move.
If RSI conditions and MACD expansions align, the likelihood of a valid reversal or continuation signal increases.
Multi-Trigger Approach
The indicator may require multiple oversold or overbought triggers within a certain bar count to issue a final Buy or Sell signal.
For instance, RSI might dip into oversold, recover, and dip again. Such repeated patterns are used internally to reduce false positives.
Adaptive Filtering for Altcoins
Altcoins can have sharper, more frequent spikes than BTC.
UCTA’s logic attempts to handle these abrupt moves by fine-tuning the thresholds and waiting periods based on repeated triggers, rather than single crosses.
2. Usage Recommendations
Markets & Timeframes
While originally optimized for altcoins on 1H–4H charts, traders can experiment with different timeframes depending on each coin’s volatility.
If the market is extremely choppy, consider referencing higher timeframes to reduce whipsaws.
Signal Interpretation
Buy Signal → The script detects a probable bottoming pattern when RSI and other oscillator conditions reenter oversold territory multiple times within a short window.
Sell Signal → Identifies points where markets may be hitting a peak, considering repeated or extreme overbought metrics.
Complementary Analysis
Use additional technical or fundamental analysis tools to confirm signals.
UCTA is not intended as a standalone guarantee; rapid price swings can invalidate any single indicator.
3. Disclaimers
Closed-Source Code
The logic behind UCTA is proprietary and not publicly visible.
It comprises advanced filtering methods that rely on recognized indicators (RSI, Stoch RSI, MACD) in a unique combination.
No Performance Guarantees
Cryptocurrency trading is highly speculative. Historical signals do not ensure future results.
Users should apply prudent risk management and never trade solely based on one tool.
Non-Repainting Logic
Signals are determined once a bar closes, so they do not repaint retroactively.
Intrabar fluctuations can cause potential signals to appear or disappear until confirmed at candle close.
ADX Supertrend | [DeV]The "ADX Supertrend" indicator is a user-friendly tool that blends two popular trading indicators—the Supertrend and the Average Directional Index (ADX)—to help traders spot trends and make smarter trading decisions. By combining these two, it offers a clearer picture of when a market is trending strongly and in which direction, while cutting down on misleading signals. Here’s a straightforward explanation of how each part works, how they team up, the benefits of using them together, and why the ADX makes the Supertrend even better.
Supertrend:
It's like a guide that follows the market’s price movements to tell you whether prices are trending up or down. It creates two lines, one above and one below the price, based on how much the market is bouncing around (its volatility). When the price moves above the upper line, it signals an uptrend (a good time to buy), and the indicator draws a line below the price to show support. When the price drops below the lower line, it signals a downtrend (a potential time to sell), and the line appears above the price as resistance. The Supertrend is great because it adjusts to market conditions, widening the gap between lines in wild markets and tightening it in calm ones.
Average Directional Index:
The ADX is all about measuring how strong a trend is, without caring whether it’s going up or down. Think of it as a meter that tells you if the market is charging forward with purpose or just drifting aimlessly. It uses a scale from 0 to 100, where higher numbers mean a stronger trend. For example, an ADX above 25 often suggests a solid trend worth paying attention to, while a low ADX signals a sleepy, sideways market. The ADX also looks at whether buyers or sellers are in control to confirm the trend’s direction.
Confluence:
The Supertrend is great at spotting trends, but it can be a bit trigger-happy, giving signals in markets that aren’t really trending. That’s where the ADX shines. It acts like a quality control check, making sure the Supertrend’s signals only count when the market is moving with conviction. By filtering out weak or messy trends, the ADX helps you avoid wasting time on trades that fizzle out. It also double-checks the trend’s direction, so you’re not just guessing whether buyers or sellers are in charge. This teamwork means you get signals that are more reliable and less likely to lead you astray, especially in tricky markets where prices bounce around without a clear path.
Bollinger Bands ETSOverview
Bollinger Bands ETstyle (BB ETS) is an advanced volatility and breakout detection indicator, building upon the classic Bollinger Bands. This script introduces adaptive ATR-based band width smoothing and clear squeeze detection, making it a versatile tool for traders seeking more responsive and actionable volatility analysis.
Features
Dual Bollinger Bands: Plots both standard and outer bands around a configurable moving average, allowing visualization of typical and extreme volatility ranges.
ATR-Based Band Smoothing (Optional): When enabled, the bands automatically widen during low-volatility periods using the Average True Range (ATR), reducing false signals and making the bands more adaptive.
Squeeze Detection (Optional): Highlights periods when the bands contract below a user-defined threshold, signaling potential breakout setups. Squeeze periods are visually marked with a background highlight for easy identification.
Customizable Settings: Users can adjust band length, standard deviation multipliers, ATR parameters, and squeeze thresholds. Both ATR smoothing and squeeze detection can be toggled on or off.
Clean Chart Output: The indicator overlays directly on price with clear, distinguishable visuals for all features.
How It Works
The indicator calculates a moving average (basis) and plots upper and lower bands at user-selected standard deviations.
If ATR smoothing is enabled, the band width expands by a multiple of the ATR, adapting to real-time volatility.
The script computes the relative band width ("bandwidth"). When this falls below your chosen threshold, the background is highlighted to indicate a "squeeze"-a period of reduced volatility that often precedes breakouts.
How to Use
Trend & Volatility Analysis: Use the bands to identify overbought/oversold conditions and current market volatility. Price touching or crossing the outer bands may signal trend exhaustion or continuation.
Breakout Anticipation: Watch for background highlights indicating a squeeze. These periods suggest the market is coiling for a potential significant move.
Adaptive Sensitivity: Enable ATR smoothing to keep bands relevant during both calm and volatile markets, reducing false signals in low-volatility conditions.
Customization: Adjust all parameters in the settings to match your trading style and the asset’s behavior.
Limitations
The indicator is designed for standard price charts and may not perform as intended on non-standard chart types (such as Renko or Heikin Ashi).
As with all technical tools, best results are achieved when used alongside other forms of analysis.
Summary
Bollinger Bands ETstyle (BB ETS) offers a modern, adaptive approach to volatility and breakout analysis by combining classic bands with ATR-based smoothing and clear squeeze visualization. It is suitable for trend-following and breakout strategies, and requires no additional scripts-simply apply to your chart and adjust the settings as needed.
Market Volatility and Price Momentum @MaxMaserati 2.0# Market Volatility and Price Momentum MaxMaserati 2.0 (MVPM 2.0)
## Overview
MVPM 2.0 is a premium multi-factor technical analysis system that combines momentum evaluation, volatility band analysis, trend filtering, and price action to identify high-probability trading opportunities. This advanced indicator uses a proprietary algorithm to measure market sentiment through four distinct technical components, providing clear visual signals through gradient bar coloring and special equilibrium markers.
## Key Features
### Multi-Factor Analysis System
The indicator evaluates four critical market components:
- **Momentum (M)**: Analyzes the relationship between momentum lines to detect directional bias
- **Volatility (V)**: Measures price position relative to adaptive volatility bands
- **Trend (T)**: Uses a sophisticated two-pole filter to determine trend direction
- **Price Action (P)**: Tracks price movement relative to momentum lines
### Innovative Tick-Based Calculation
- **Mathematical Precision**: Uses market-relevant tick size (0.25) as the foundational unit for indicator calculations
- **Configurable Tick Separation**: Adjust the number of ticks between momentum and signal lines (0.1-10.0) to fine-tune sensitivity
- **Adaptive Calibration**: Lower tick values create earlier, more sensitive signals; higher values provide stronger confirmation
- **Market-Specific Optimization**: Perfect for customizing across different instruments, timeframes, and volatility conditions
- **Technical Edge**: The tick-based approach ensures mathematically precise signals that respect each market's natural price structure
### Dual Volatility Band Modes
- **Long Term Trend Mode**: Volatility bands calculated independently from momentum lines, providing broader market context
- **Short Term Trend Mode**: Volatility bands anchored to momentum signal line, offering more precise trading ranges
### Visual Signals
- **Color-Gradient Bars**: Displays signal strength (1-4) through color intensity
- Deeper green/lime: Strong bullish conviction (more factors aligned)
- Deeper red: Strong bearish conviction (more factors aligned)
- Yellow: Market equilibrium (equal bullish and bearish factors)
- Black Circle Markers**: Special signals that appear at equilibrium of price which means ranging/consolidation/pause points
### Customizable Information Table
- **Fully Configurable Display**: Toggle individual rows on/off
- **Positioning & Sizing**: Adjust table location and size to fit your chart layout
## Price Position Interpretation
### Directional Bias Determination
- **Strong Bullish**: Price above all indicator lines (momentum, signal, and volatility bands)
- **Strong Bearish**: Price below all indicator lines
- **Consolidation/Neutral**: Price between indicator lines, especially within volatility bands
### Market Participation Assessment
- **Inside Volatility Bands**: Insufficient market participants to establish clear direction
- **Short-Term Volatility Mode Advantage**: More clearly defines the neutral zone where price is caught between momentum lines and volatility bands
- **Consolidation Identification**: When price fluctuates between all indicator lines, market is seeking equilibrium
Trading Strategies
Momentum Breakouts
Wait for price to break above/below all the lines with a body close. Green for Bullish and Red for Bearish
For Short Term Mode:
Look for the first retest of any of the indicator lines (momentum or signal lines)
Wait for a reaction with body close candle (a candle that remains green/red is significantly more reliable)
Confirm that the reaction candle's body closes below/above all indicator lines
Enter after this precise line test and reaction sequence
Bearish Example
Bullish example
For Long Term Mode:
Look for the first retest of the Bullish/bearish volatility lines without closing above/below these lines
Wait for a reaction with body close candle (a candle that remains green/red is significantly more reliable)
Confirm that the reaction candle's body closes below/above all indicator lines
Enter after this precise volatility band test and reaction sequence.
Bearish example
Bullish Example
NO ENTRY EXAMPLE
Volatility Band Mean Reversion
Identify when price is near or beyond volatility bands
Look for reversal candlestick patterns or divergence
Enter when price begins moving back toward momentum lines
Exit when price reaches the opposite volatility band or momentum line
Post-Breakout Continuation
After price crosses all indicator lines, wait for a pullback
Enter when price retests but respects any indicator line as support/resistance
Confirm with multi-factor alignment (3-4 strength) in the breakout direction
Trail stops behind retested indicator lines as trade progresses
Tick Optimization Strategy
Start with default tick separation (1.0)
For ranging markets: Increase tick separation (2.0-3.0) to reduce false signals
For trending markets: Decrease tick separation (0.5-0.8) for earlier entries
Fine-tune tick values for each specific instrument based on its volatility profile

MVPM 2.0 provides traders with a comprehensive market analysis system that identifies high-probability setups through multi-factor confirmation. The groundbreaking tick-based calculation method, dual volatility band modes, and price position analysis work together to create a powerful edge in any market condition.
By understanding the relationships between price and the indicator's lines, traders can precisely identify insufficient market participation zones, optimal breakout points, and high-probability continuation setups. The configurable tick separation feature allows for unprecedented customization, making this indicator adaptable to any trading style, instrument, or timeframe.
Whether you're a trend trader, reversal hunter, or breakout specialist, MVPM 2.0 delivers the technical precision and visual clarity needed for consistent trading performance across all market conditions.
Entropy Chart Analysis [PhenLabs]📊 Entropy Chart analysis -
Version: PineScript™ v6
📌 Description
The Entropy Chart indicator analysis applies Approximate Entropy (ApEn) to identify zones of potential support and resistance on your price chart. It is designed to locate changes in the market’s predictability, with a focus on zones near significant psychological price levels (e.g., multiples of 50). By quantifying entropy, the indicator aims to identify zones where price action might stabilize (potential support) or become randomized (potential resistance).
This tool automates the visualization of these key areas for traders, which may have the effect of revealing reversal levels or consolidation zones that would be hard to discern through traditional means. It also filters the signals by proximity to key levels in an attempt to reduce noise and highlight higher-probability setups. These dynamic zones adapt to changing market conditions by stretching, merging, and expiring based on user-inputted rules.
🚀 Points of Innovation
Combines Approximate Entropy (ApEn) calculation with price action near significant levels.
Filters zone signals based on proximity (in ticks) to predefined significant price levels (multiples of 50).
Dynamically merges overlapping or nearby zones to consolidate signals and reduce chart clutter.
Uses ApEn crossovers relative to its moving average as the core trigger mechanism.
Provides distinct visual coloring for bullish, bearish, and merged (mixed-signal) zones.
Offers comprehensive customization for entropy calculation, zone sensitivity, level filtering, and visual appearance.
🔧 Core Components
Approximate Entropy (ApEn) Calculation : Measures the regularity or randomness of price fluctuations over a specified window. Low ApEn suggests predictability, while high ApEn suggests randomness.
Zone Trigger Logic : Creates potential support zones when ApEn crosses below its average (indicating increasing predictability) and potential resistance zones when it crosses above (indicating increasing randomness).
Significant Level Filter : Validates zone triggers only if they occur within a user-defined tick distance from significant price levels (multiples of 50).
Dynamic Zone Management : Automatically creates, extends, merges nearby zones based on tick distance, and removes the oldest zones to maintain a maximum limit.
Zone Visualization : Draws and updates colored boxes on the chart to represent active support, resistance, or mixed zones.
🔥 Key Features
Entropy-Based S/R Detection : Uses ApEn to identify potential support (low entropy) and resistance (high entropy) areas.
Significant Level Filtering : Enhances signal quality by focusing on entropy changes near key psychological price points.
Automatic Zone Drawing & Merging : Visualizes zones dynamically, merging close signals for clearer interpretation.
Highly Customizable : Allows traders to adjust parameters for ApEn calculation, zone detection thresholds, level filter sensitivity, merging distance, and visual styles.
Integrated Alerts : Provides built-in alert conditions for the formation of new bullish or bearish zones near significant levels.
Clear Visual Output : Uses distinct, customizable colors for buy (support), sell (resistance), and mixed (merged) zones.
🎨 Visualization
Buy Zones : Represented by greenish boxes (default: #26a69a), indicating potential support areas formed during low entropy periods near significant levels.
Sell Zones : Represented by reddish boxes (default: #ef5350), indicating potential resistance areas formed during high entropy periods near significant levels.
Mixed Zones : Represented by bluish/purple boxes (default: #8894ff), formed when a buy zone and a sell zone merge, indicating areas of potential consolidation or conflict.
Dynamic Extension : Active zones are automatically extended to the right with each new bar.

✅ Best Use Cases
Identifying potential support/resistance near significant psychological price levels (e.g., $50, $100 increments).
Detecting potential market turning points or consolidation zones based on shifts in price predictability.
Filtering entries or exits by confirming signals occurring near significant levels identified by the indicator.
Adding context to other technical analysis approaches by highlighting entropy-derived zones.
⚠️ Limitations
Parameter Dependency : Indicator performance is sensitive to parameter settings ( Window Length , Tolerance , Zone Threshold , Max Ticks Distance ), which may need optimization for different assets and timeframes.
Volatility Sensitivity : High market volatility or erratic price action can affect ApEn calculations and potentially lead to less reliable zone signals.
Fixed Level Filter : The significant level filter is based on multiples of 50. While common, this may not capture all relevant levels for every asset or market condition. Accurate Tick Size input is essential.
Not Standalone : Should be used in conjunction with other analysis methods (price action, volume, other indicators) for confirmation, not as a sole basis for trading decisions.
💡 What Makes This Unique
Entropy + Level Context : Uniquely combines ApEn analysis with a specific filter for proximity to significant price levels (multiples of 50), adding locational context to entropy signals.
Intelligent Zone Merging : Automatically consolidates nearby buy/sell zones based on tick distance, simplifying visual analysis and highlighting stronger confluence areas.
Targeted Signal Generation : Focuses alerts and zone creation on specific market conditions (entropy shifts near key levels).
🔬 How It Works
Calculate Entropy : The script computes the Approximate Entropy (ApEn) of the closing prices over the defined Window Length to quantify price predictability.
Check Triggers : It monitors ApEn relative to its moving average. A crossunder below a calculated threshold (avg_apen / zone_threshold) indicates potential support; a crossover above (avg_apen * zone_threshold) indicates potential resistance.
Filter by Level : A potential zone trigger is confirmed only if the low (for support) or high (for resistance) of the trigger bar is within the Max Ticks Distance of a significant price level (multiple of 50).
Manage & Draw Zones : If a trigger is confirmed, a new zone box is created. The script checks for overlaps with existing zones within the Zone Merge Distance and merges them if necessary. Zones are extended forward, and the oldest are removed to respect the Maximum Zones limit. Active zones are drawn and updated on the chart.
💡 Note:
Crucially, set the Tick Size parameter correctly for your specific trading instrument in the “Level Filter Settings”. Incorrect Tick Size will make the significant level filter inaccurate.
Experiment with parameters, especially Window Length , Tolerance (r) , Zone Threshold , and Max Ticks Distance , to tailor the indicator’s sensitivity to your preferred asset and timeframe.
Always use this indicator as part of a comprehensive trading plan, incorporating risk management and seeking confirmation from other analysis techniques.
Relative Strength Index with Percentile📈 Relative Strength Index with Percentile Rank (RSI + Percentile)
This advanced RSI indicator adds a powerful percentile ranking system to the classic Relative Strength Index, providing deeper insight into current RSI values relative to recent history.
🔍 Key Features:
Standard RSI Calculation: Identifies overbought/oversold levels using a customizable period.
RSI Percentile (0–100%): Calculates where the current RSI value stands within a user-defined lookback period.
Dynamic Background Coloring:
🟩 Green when RSI percentile is above 80% (strong relative strength)
🟥 Red when RSI percentile is below 20% (strong relative weakness)
Optional Divergence Detection: Spot classic bullish and bearish divergences between price and RSI.
Smoothing Options: Apply various moving averages (SMA, EMA, RMA, etc.) to the RSI, with optional Bollinger Bands.
Flexible Settings: Full control over lookback periods, smoothing type, and band sensitivity.
🧠 Why Use RSI Percentile?
Traditional RSI values can become less informative during trending markets. By ranking the RSI as a percentile, you gain contextual insight into whether the current strength is unusually high or low compared to recent history, rather than just a fixed 70/30 threshold.
Rango HAThis script calculates the range of Heikin-Ashi candles and offers a unique perspective on the expansion and contraction of the smoothed price. The "Range Scale" option allows users to adjust the indicator's sensitivity for backtesting and comparison with other indicators.
Display:
Dynamically colored columns indicate changes in the range compared to the previous candle, differentiating between bullish and bearish for momentum and gray columns for weakness or exhaustion.
Analytical examples:
In this case the price tries to cross a previous low but it does so with grey candles and divergence in the oscillator, this is a possible bullish scenario and all that remains is to wait for a signal such as a bullish engulfing candle with ascending columns.
Here, two hypothetical trades are observed using the same strategy. The price struggles to break and remain above a previous high. We observe divergence in the oscillator and gray or low dango candles in the price, followed by a bearish engulfing candle that acts as a trigger. The same thing works in reverse in the bullish example seen on the right.
Another case where engulfing candles act as triggers that indicate an increase in momentum after signs of weakness.
I recommend using this indicator in conjunction with price action, as seen above, to identify weak movements and the beginnings of strong movements, relative to previous highs and lows. I add candle colors relative to the oscillator bar size to improve the clarity of the price reading, but I don't add signals to avoid cluttering the price display. Furthermore, if the signals aren't used in conjunction with other key levels, it can lead to poor decisions.
All images shown are on the M1 timeframe, but everyone can use whatever they like.
I hope it helps. If you want to make any changes or additions, please feel free to request them in the comments.
Good luck with your trading!
Multitimeframe Order Block Finder (Zeiierman)█ Overview
The Multitimeframe Order Block Finder (Zeiierman) is a powerful tool designed to identify potential institutional zones of interest — Order Blocks — across any timeframe, regardless of what chart you're viewing.
Order Blocks are critical supply and demand zones formed by the last opposing candle before an impulsive move. These areas often act as magnets for price and serve as smart-money footprints — ideal for anticipating reversals, retests, or breakouts.
This indicator not only detects such zones in real-time, but also visualizes their mitigation, bull/bear volume pressure, and a smoothed directional trendline based on Order Block behavior.
█ How It Works
The script fetches OHLCV data from your chosen timeframe using request.security() and processes it using strict pattern logic and volume-derived strength conditions. It detects Order Blocks only when the structure aligns with dominant pressure and visually extends valid zones forward for as long as they remain unmitigated.
⚪ Bull/Bear Volume Power Visualization
Each OB includes proportional bars representing estimated buy/sell effort:
Buy Power: % of volume attributed to buyers
Sell Power: % of volume attributed to sellers
This adds a visual, intuitive layer of intent — showing who controlled the price before the OB formed.
⚪ Order Block Trendline (Butterworth Filtered)
A smoothed trendline is derived from the average OB value over time using a two-pole Butterworth low-pass filter. This helps you understand the broader directional pressure:
Trendline up → favor bullish OBs
Trendline down → favor bearish OBs
█ How to Use
⚪ Trade From Order Blocks Like Institutions
Use this tool to find institutional footprints and reaction zones:
Enter at unmitigated OBs
⚪ Volume Power
Volume Pressure Bars inside each OB help you:
Confirm strong buyer/seller dominance
Detect possible traps or exhaustion
Understand how each zone formed
⚪ Find Trend & Pullbacks
The trendline not only helps traders detect the current trend direction, but the built-in trend coloring also highlights potential pullback areas within these trends.
█ Settings
Timeframe – Selects which timeframe to scan for Order Blocks.
Lookback Period – Defines how many bars back are used to detect bullish or bearish momentum shifts.
Sensitivity – When enabled, the indicator uses smoothed price (RMA) with rising/falling logic instead of raw candle closes. This allows more flexible detection of trend shifts and results in more Order Blocks being identified.
Minimum Percent Move – Filters out weak moves. Higher = only strong price shifts.
Mitigated on Mid – OB is removed when price touches its midpoint.
Show OB Table – Displays a panel listing all active (unmitigated) Order Blocks.
Extend Boxes – Controls how far OB boxes stretch into the future.
Show OB Trend – Toggles the trendline derived from Order Block strength.
Passband Ripple (dB) – Controls trendline reactivity. Higher = more sensitive.
Cutoff Frequency – Controls smoothness of trendline (0–0.5). Lower = smoother.

Adaptive ATR Limits█ OVERVIEW
This indicator plots adaptive ATR limits for intraday trading. A key feature of this indicator, which makes it different from other ATR limit indicators, is that the top and bottom ATR limit lines are always exactly one ATR apart from each other (in "auto" mode; there is also a "basic" mode, which plots the limits in the more traditional way—i.e., one ATR above the low and one ATR below the high at all times—and this can be used for comparison).
█ FEATURES
Provides an algorithm to plot the most reasonable intraday ATR top/bottom limits based on currently available information
Dynamically adapts limits as the price evolves during the day
Works correctly and consistently on both RTH and ETH charts
Has a user-selected ADR mode to base the limits on ADR instead of ATR
Option to include the current pre-market and previous day's post-market range in the calculation
Configurable ATR/ADR averaging length
Provides a visual smoothing option
Provides an information box showing the current numerical ATR/ADR values
Reasonable defaults that work well if the user changes nothing
Well-documented, high-quality, open-source code for those interested
█ HOW TO USE
At a minimum, there is nothing that needs to be set. The defaults work well. The ATR top line (red, configurable) gives you the most reasonable move given the currently available information. The line will move away from the price as the price approaches it; that is normal—it is reacting to new information. This happens until the ATR bottom limit hits the lower of the daily low and the previous day's close (in ATR mode). The ATR bottom line (green, configurable) works the same way, with reversed logic.
There is an option to use ADR instead of ATR. The ATR includes the previous day's RTH close in the range, whereas ADR does not. Another option allows the user to add the current day's pre-market range or the previous day's post-market into the current day's range, which has an effect if either of those went outside of today's RTH range, plus yesterday's RTH close (in the default ATR mode). Pre-market and post-market range is not typically included in the daily true range, so only change it if you really know you want it.
█ CONCEPTS
Most traditional ATR limit indicators plot the top ATR limit one ATR above the current daily low, and the bottom ATR limit one ATR below the current daily high. This indicator can also do that (in "basic" mode), but its value lies in its default "auto" mode, which uses an algorithm to dynamically adapt the ATR limits throughout the day, keeping them one ATR apart at all times. It tries to plot the most sensible ATR limits based on the current daily ATR, in order to provide a reasonable visual intraday target, given the available information at that point in time.
"Auto" mode is actually a weighted average of two methods: midpoint and relative (both of which can also be explicitly selected). The midpoint method places the midpoint of the ATR limit equal to the midpoint of the currently established daily range. The relative method measures the currently established daily range and calculates the position of the current price within it (as a ratio between 0 and 1). It then uses that value as a weight in a weighted average of extreme locations for the ATR limits, which are: the ATR top anchored to one ATR above the daily low, and the ATR bottom anchored to one ATR below the daily high.
The relative method is more advanced and better for most of the day; however, it can cause wild swings in the early market or pre-market before a reasonable range (as a percentage of ATR) has been established. "Auto" mode therefore takes another weighted average between the two methods, with the weight determined by the percentage of the ATR currently established within the day, more strongly weighting the calmer midpoint method before a good range is established. Once the full ATR has been achieved, the algorithm in "auto" mode will have fully switched to the relative method and will remain with that method for the rest of the day.
To explain the effect further, as an example, imagine that the price is approaching the full ATR range on the high side. At this point, the indicator will have almost fully transitioned to the second (relative) method. The lower ATR limit will now be anchored to the daily low as the price hits the upper ATR limit. If the price goes beyond the upper ATR, the lower ATR limit will stay anchored to the daily low, and the upper limit will stay anchored to one ATR above the lower limit. This allows you to see how far the price is going beyond the upper ATR limit. If the price then returns and backs off the upper ATR limit, the lower ATR limit will un-anchor from the daily low (it will actually rise, since the daily ATR range has been exceeded, so the lower ATR limit needs to come up because the actual daily range can’t fit into the ATR range anymore). The overall effect is to give you the best visual indication of where the price is in relation to a possible upper ATR-based target. Reverse this example for when the price low approaches the ATR range on the low side.
Care was taken so that the code uses no hard-coded time zones, exchanges, or session times. For this reason, it can in principle work globally. However, it very much depends on the information provided by the exchange, which is reflected in built-in Pine Script variables (see Limitations below).
█ LIMITATIONS
The indicator was developed for US/European equities and is tested on them only. It is also known to work on US futures; in this case, the whole 23-hour session is used, and the "Sessions to include in range" setting has no effect. It may or may not work as intended on security types and equities/futures for other countries.

[NIC] Volatility Anomaly Indicator (Inspired by Jeff Augen)Volatility Anomaly Indicator (Inspired by Jeff Augen)
The Volatility Anomaly Indicator, inspired by Jeff Augen’s The Volatility Edge in Options Trading, helps traders spot price distortions by analyzing volatility imbalances. It compares short-term (10-day) and long-term (30-day) historical volatility (HV), plotting the ratio in a subgraph with clusters of dots to highlight anomalies—red for volatility spikes (potential sells) and green for calm periods (potential buys).
Originality: This indicator uniquely adapts Augen’s volatility concepts into a visual tool, focusing on relative volatility distortions rather than absolute levels, making it ideal for volatile assets like $TQQQ.
Features:
Calculates the ratio of short-term to long-term volatility.
Detects spikes (ratio > 1.5) and calm periods (ratio < 0.67) with customizable thresholds.
Plots volatility ratio as a blue line, with red/green dots for anomalies.
Includes optional buy/sell signals on the main chart (if overlay is enabled).
How It Works
The indicator computes historical volatility using log returns, then calculates the short-term to long-term volatility ratio. Spikes and calm periods are marked with dots in the subgraph, and threshold lines (1.5 and 0.67) provide context. Buy signals (green triangles) trigger during calm periods, and sell signals (red triangles) during spikes.
How to Use
Apply to any chart (e.g., NASDAQ:TQQQ daily).
Adjust inputs: Short Volatility Period (10), Long Volatility Period (30), Volatility Spike Threshold (1.5).
Watch for red dot clusters (spikes, potential sells) and green dot clusters (calm, potential buys).
Combine with price action or RSI for confirmation.
Why Use This Indicator?
Focuses on volatility-driven price inefficiencies.
Clear visualization with dot clusters.
Customizable for different assets and timeframes.
Limitations
Not a standalone system; requires confirmation.
May give false signals in choppy markets.
Adaptive RSI | Lyro RSThe Adaptive RSI | 𝓛𝔂𝓻𝓸 𝓡𝓢 indicator enhances the traditional Relative Strength Index (RSI) by integrating adaptive smoothing techniques and dynamic bands. This design aims to provide traders with a nuanced view of market momentum, highlighting potential trend shifts and overbought or oversold conditions.
Key Features
Adaptive RSI Calculation: Combines fast and slow Exponential Moving Averages (EMAs) of the RSI to capture momentum shifts effectively.
Dynamic Bands: Utilizes a smoothed standard deviation approach to create upper and lower bands around the adaptive RSI, aiding in identifying extreme market conditions.
Signal Line: An additional EMA of the adaptive RSI serves as a signal line, assisting in confirming trend directions.
Customizable Color Schemes: Offers multiple predefined color palettes, including "Classic," "Mystic," "Accented," and "Royal," with an option for users to define custom colors for bullish and bearish signals.
How It Works
Adaptive RSI Computation: Calculates the difference between fast and slow EMAs of the RSI, producing a responsive oscillator that adapts to market momentum.
Band Formation: Applies a smoothing factor to the standard deviation of the adaptive RSI, generating dynamic upper and lower bands that adjust to market volatility.
Signal Line Generation: Computes an EMA of the adaptive RSI to act as a signal line, providing additional confirmation for potential entries or exits.
Visualization: Plots the adaptive RSI as color-coded columns, with colors indicating bullish or bearish momentum. The dynamic bands are filled to visually represent overbought and oversold zones.
How to Use
Identify Momentum Shifts: Observe crossovers between the adaptive RSI and the signal line to detect potential changes in trend direction.
Spot Overbought/Oversold Conditions: Monitor when the adaptive RSI approaches or breaches the dynamic bands, signaling possible market extremes.
Customize Visuals: Select from predefined color palettes or define custom colors to align the indicator's appearance with personal preferences or chart themes.
Customization Options
RSI and EMA Lengths: Adjust the lengths of the RSI, fast EMA, slow EMA, and signal EMA to fine-tune the indicator's sensitivity.
Band Settings: Modify the band length, multiplier, and smoothing factor to control the responsiveness and width of the dynamic bands.
Color Schemes: Choose from predefined color modes or enable custom color settings to personalize the indicator's appearance.
⚠️ DISCLAIMER ⚠️: This indicator alone is not reliable and should be combined with other indicator(s) for a stronger signal.
Nyx-AI Market Intelligence DashboardNyx AI Market Intelligence Dashboard is a non-signal-based environmental analysis tool that provides real-time insight into short-term market behavior. It is designed to help traders understand the quality of current price action, volume dynamics, volatility conditions, and structural behavior. It informs the trader whether the current market environment is supportive or hostile to trading and whether any active signal (from other tools) should be trusted, filtered, or avoided altogether.
Nyx is composed of seven intelligent modules. Each module operates independently but is visually unified through a floating dashboard panel on the chart. This panel renders live diagnostics every few bars, maintaining a low visual footprint without drawing overlays or modifying price.
Market Posture Engine
This module reads individual candlesticks using real-time candle anatomy to interpret directional bias and sentiment. It examines body-to-range ratio, wick imbalances, and compares them to prior bars. If the current candle is a large momentum body with minimal wick, it is interpreted as a directional thrust. If it is a small body with equal wicks, it is considered indecision. Engulfing patterns are used to detect potential liquidity tests. The system outputs a plain-text posture signal such as Building Bullish Intent, Bearish Momentum, Indecision Zone, Testing Liquidity (Up or Down), or Neutral.
Flow Reversal Engine
This module monitors short-term structural shifts and volume contraction to detect early signs of reversal or exhaustion. It looks for lower highs or higher lows paired with weakening volume and closing behavior that implies loss of momentum. It also monitors divergence between price and volume, as well as bar-to-bar momentum stalls (where highs and lows stop expanding). When these conditions are met, it outputs one of several states including Top Forming, Bottom Forming, Flow Divergence, Momentum Stall, or Neutral. This is useful for detecting inflection points before they manifest on trend indicators.
Fractal Context Engine
This engine compares the current bar’s range to its surrounding structural context. It uses a dynamic lookback length based on volatility. It determines whether the market is in expansion (strong directional trend), compression (shrinking range), or a transitional phase. A special case called Flip In Progress is triggered when the current high and low exceed the entire recent range, which often precedes sharp reversals or volatility expansion. The result is one of the following: Trend Expansion, Trend Breakdown, Sideways or Coil, Flip In Progress, or Expansion to Coil.
Candle Behavior Analyzer
This module analyzes the last five candles as a set to detect behavioral traits that a single candle may not reveal. It calculates average body and wick size, and counts how many recent candles show thrust (large body dominance), trap behavior (price returns inside wicks), or weakness (small bodies with high wick ratios). The module outputs one of the following behaviors: Aggressive Buying, Aggressive Selling, Trap Pattern, Trap During Coil, Low Participation, Low Energy, or Fakeout Candle. This helps the trader assess sentiment quality and the reliability of price movement.
Volatility Forecast and Compression Memory
This module predicts whether a breakout is likely based on recent compression behavior. It tracks how many of the last 10 bars had significantly reduced range compared to average. If a certain threshold is met without any recent large expansion bar, the system forecasts that a volatility expansion is likely in the near future. It also records how many bars ago the last high volatility impulse occurred and classifies whether current conditions are compressing. The outputs are Expansion Likely, Active Compression, and Last Burst memory, which provide breakout timing and energy insights.
Entry Filter
This module scores the current bar based on four adaptive criteria: body size relative to range, volume strength relative to average, current volatility versus historical volatility, and price position relative to a 20-period moving average. Each factor is scored as either 1 or 2. The total score is adjusted by a behavioral modifier that adds or subtracts a point if recent candles show aggression or trap behavior. Final scores range from 4 to 8 and are classified into Optimal, Mixed, or Avoid categories. This module is not a trade signal. It is a confluence filter that evaluates whether conditions are favorable for entry. It is particularly effective when layered with other indicators to improve precision.
Liquidity Intent Engine
This engine checks for price behavior around recent swing highs and lows. It uses adaptive pivots based on volatility to determine if price has swept above a recent high or below a recent low. This behavior is often associated with institutional liquidity hunts. If a sweep is detected and price has moved away from the sweep level, the engine infers directional intent and compares current distance to the high and low to determine which liquidity pool is more dominant. The output is Magnet Above, Magnet Below, or Conflict Zone. This is useful for anticipating directional bias driven by smart money activity.
Sticky Memory Tracking
To avoid flickering between states on low volatility or noisy price action, Nyx includes a sticky memory system. Each module’s output is preserved until a meaningful change is detected. For example, if Market Posture is Neutral and remains so for several bars, the previous non-neutral value is retained. This makes the dashboard more stable and easier to interpret without misleading noise.
Dashboard Rendering
All module outputs are displayed in a clean two-column panel anchored to any corner of the chart. Text values are color-coded, tooltips are added for context, and the data refreshes every few bars to maintain speed. The dashboard avoids clutter and blends seamlessly with other chart tools.
This tool is intended for informational and educational purposes only. It does not provide financial advice or trading signals. Nyx analyzes price, volume, structure, and volatility to offer context about the current market environment. It is not designed to predict future price movements or guarantee profitable outcomes. Traders should always use independent judgment and risk management. Past performance of any analysis logic does not guarantee future results.
Wx Stop Loss BetaWx Stop Loss Beta is an adaptive stop-loss overlay intended for discretionary entry management in medium- to long-term trades. It integrates a volatility filter, support-based logic, and capital protection constraints.
• Manual Entry Price: User inputs their actual entry point
• Volatility Anchor: Stop-loss adjusts using ATR (customizable length and multiplier)
• Support Reference: Based on swing low over a configurable lookback period
• Loss Cap: Maximum allowable loss percentage from entry price (hard floor)
• Trailing Logic: Stop-loss only moves upward (never lowers), adapting to favorable price action
• Output: Displays a horizontal line at the stop-loss level and renders its value in the data window
Warning: This tool is experimental and has not been formally backtested. It is provided as-is for manual strategy enhancement. Use at your own discretion, and validate thoroughly in a paper or sandbox environment before relying on it in live trading. Feedback and critique are encouraged.
Trend Classifier [ChartPrime]Trend Classifier
This is a multi-level trend classification tool that detects bullish, bearish, and ranging conditions using an adaptive smoothing method. It highlights trend strength through color-coded candles and layered bands, making it easy to interpret market momentum visually.
⯁ KEY FEATURES
Classifies trend strength using 3 bullish and 3 bearish levels relative to an adaptive trend line.
Neutral (range) zones are marked when price stays between key bands, often signaling low volatility or consolidation.
Automatically filters band visibility based on current trend direction:
In uptrends, only levels below the price are displayed.
In downtrends, only levels above the price are shown.
Color-coded candles:
Aqua candles for bullish conditions.
Red candles for bearish conditions.
Orange candles during neutral or ranging conditions.
Includes a trend direction change marker (diamond), plotted when a shift in trend is detected.
Plots a central smoothed trend line to anchor the trend bands dynamically.
Displays a trend strength dashboard in the top-right corner with real-time bull and bear scores (0 to 3).
Labels with arrows (▲/▼) show current trend direction and strength on the chart.
⯁ HOW TO USE
Use bull and bear levels (1–3) to assess the momentum of the current trend.
When bull = 0 and bear = 0 , market is considered ranging or consolidating – consider fading or waiting for breakout confirmation.
Trend bands can be used as dynamic support/resistance during trending phases.
Monitor the trend change diamonds to spot potential early reversals.
Combine with volume or oscillator tools for confirmation of strength shifts.
⯁ CONCLUSION
Trend Classifier helps traders stay aligned with the dominant trend while visually breaking down market momentum into levels. Its clean color-coded design and strength dashboard make it ideal for both trend following and range trading strategies.
BK AK-9I am incredibly proud to introduce my fourth indicator to the TradingView community:
BK AK-9 — a next-level momentum-volatility hybrid, built for traders who demand precision.
🔥 Why “AK-9”? The Meaning Behind the Name
This indicator is deeply personal to me.
The “AK” in the name represents the initials of my mentor — the man whose guidance shaped my journey in trading, discipline, and strategy.
His wisdom is woven into every line of code, every design choice, and every purpose behind this tool.
The “9” holds its own powerful meaning:
9 is the number of completion and breakthrough — the moment where preparation meets opportunity.
The AK-9 weapon itself is a suppressed variant of the legendary AK platform, built for stealth, precision, and maximum impact in close-quarters combat.
It’s quiet, adaptive, and deadly effective — just like this indicator cuts through market noise, adapts to volatility, and pinpoints moments of maximum opportunity.
✨ About the BK AK-9 Indicator
The BK AK-9 is not just an oscillator.
It’s a multi-layered trading weapon combining:
✅ RSI → Stochastic → Bollinger Bands on Stoch RSI → momentum measured inside volatility.
✅ Dynamic or Static Background Flash → when extremes hit, you get instant visual alerts.
✅ Color-coded %K zones →
🔴 Red: oversold
🟢 Green: overbought
🔵 Blue: neutral
✅ Volatility-adaptive bands → instead of relying on static levels, the bands expand and contract dynamically using standard deviation.
🛡️ Why This Indicator Matters

💥 How to Use BK AK-9
Breakout Confirmation → when Stoch RSI breaks above upper Bollinger Band (green zone, flash ON), ride the trend.
Mean Reversion Trades → when Stoch RSI drops below lower Bollinger Band (red zone, flash ON), look for reversals.
Noise Filtering → stay patient inside the blue zone, wait for extremes.
Advanced Sync → align it with Gann levels, harmonic patterns, Fibonacci clusters, or Elliott waves for maximum edge.

Smart Range DetectorSmart Range Detector
What It Does
This indicator automatically detects and validates significant trading ranges using pivot point analysis combined with logarithmic fibonacci relationships. It operates by identifying specific pivot patterns (High-Low-High and Low-High-Low) that meet fibonacci validation criteria to filter out noise and highlight only the most reliable trading ranges. Each range is continuously monitored for potential mitigation (breakout) events.
Key Features
Identifies both High-Low-High and Low-High-Low range patterns
Validates each range using logarithmic fibonacci relationships (more accurate than linear fibs)
Detects range mitigations (breakouts) and visually differentiates them
Shows fibonacci levels within ranges (25%, 50%, 75%) for potential reversal points
Visualizes extension levels beyond ranges for breakout targets
Analyzes volume profile with customizable price divisions (default: 60)
Displays Point of Control (POC) and Value Area for traded volume analysis
Implements performance optimization with configurable range limits
Includes user-adjustable safety checks to prevent Pine Script limitations
Offers fully customizable colors, line widths, and transparency settings
How To Use It
Identify Valid Ranges : The indicator automatically detects and highlights trading ranges that meet fibonacci validation criteria
Monitor Fibonacci Levels : Watch for price reactions at internal fib levels (25%, 50%, 75%) for potential reversal opportunities
Track Extension Targets : Use the extension lines as potential targets when price breaks out of a range
Analyze Volume Structure : Enable the volume profile mode to see where most volume was traded within mitigated ranges
Trade Range Boundaries : Look for reactions at range highs/lows combined with volume POC for higher probability entries
Manage Performance : Adjust the maximum displayed ranges and history bars settings for optimal chart performance
Settings Guide
Left/Right Bars Look Back : Controls how far back the indicator looks to identify pivot points (higher values find more ranges but may reduce sensitivity)
Max History Bars : Limits how far back in history the indicator will analyze (stays within Pine Script's 10,000 bar limitation)
Max Ranges to Display : Restricts the total number of ranges kept in memory for improved performance (1-50)
Volume Profile : When enabled, shows volume distribution analysis for mitigated ranges
Volume Profile Divisions : Controls the granularity of the volume analysis (higher values show more detail)
Display Options : Toggle visibility of range lines, fibonacci levels, extension lines, and volume analysis elements
Transparency & Color Settings : Fully customize the visual appearance of all indicator elements
Line Width Settings : Adjust the thickness of lines for better visibility on different timeframes
Technical Details
The indicator uses logarithmic fibonacci calculations for more accurate price relationships
Volume profile analysis creates 60 price divisions by default (adjustable) for detailed volume distribution
All timestamps are properly converted to work with Pine Script's bar limitations
Safety checks prevent "array index out of bounds" errors that plague many complex indicators
Time-based coordinates are used instead of bar indices to prevent "bar index too far" errors
This indicator works well on all timeframes and instruments, but performs best on 5-minute to daily charts. Perfect for swing traders, range traders, and breakout strategists.
What Makes It Different
Most range indicators simply draw boxes based on recent highs and lows. Smart Range Detector validates each potential range using proven fibonacci relationships to filter out noise. It then adds sophisticated volume analysis to help traders identify the most significant price levels within each range. The performance optimization features ensure smooth operation even on lower timeframes and extended history analysis.
