Overview
Pairs nicely with Contrarian 100 MA
The Bollinger Bands Entry/Exit Thresholds is a powerful momentum-based indicator designed to help traders identify potential entry and exit points in trending or breakout markets. By leveraging Bollinger Bands, this indicator quantifies price deviations from the bands to generate bullish and bearish momentum signals, displayed as an oscillator. It includes customizable entry and exit signals based on user-defined thresholds, with visual cues plotted either on the oscillator panel or directly on the price chart.
This indicator is ideal for traders looking to capture breakout opportunities or confirm trend strength, with flexible settings to adapt to various markets and trading styles.
How It Works
The Bollinger Bands Entry/Exit Thresholds calculates two key metrics:
Bullish Momentum (Bull): Measures the extent to which the price exceeds the upper Bollinger Band, expressed as a percentage (0–100).
Bearish Momentum (Bear): Measures the extent to which the price falls below the lower Bollinger Band, also expressed as a percentage (0–100).
The indicator generates:
Long Entry Signals: Triggered when the bearish momentum (bear) crosses below a user-defined Long Threshold (default: 40). This suggests weakening bearish pressure, potentially indicating a reversal or breakout to the upside.
Exit Signals: Triggered when the bullish momentum (bull) crosses below a user-defined Sell Threshold (default: 80), indicating a potential reduction in bullish momentum and a signal to exit long positions.
Signals are visualized as tiny colored dots:
Long Entry: Blue dots, plotted either at the bottom of the oscillator or below the price bar (depending on user settings).
Exit Signal: White dots, plotted either at the top of the oscillator or above the price bar.
Calculation Methodology
Bollinger Bands:
A user-defined Length (default: 14) is used to calculate an Exponential Moving Average (EMA) of the source price (default: close).
Standard deviation is computed over the same length, multiplied by a user-defined Multiplier (default: 1.0).
Upper Band = EMA + (Standard Deviation × Multiplier)
Lower Band = EMA - (Standard Deviation × Multiplier)
Bull and Bear Momentum:
For each bar in the lookback period (length), the indicator calculates:
Bullish Momentum: The sum of positive deviations of the price above the upper band, normalized by the total absolute deviation from the upper band, scaled to a 0–100 range.
Bearish Momentum: The sum of positive deviations of the price below the lower band, normalized by the total absolute deviation from the lower band, scaled to a 0–100 range.
Formula:
bull = (sum of max(price - upper, 0) / sum of abs(price - upper)) * 100
bear = (sum of max(lower - price, 0) / sum of abs(lower - price)) * 100
Signal Generation:
Long Entry: Triggered when bear crosses below the Long Threshold.
Exit: Triggered when bull crosses below the Sell Threshold.
Settings
Length: Lookback period for EMA and standard deviation (default: 14).
Multiplier: Multiplier for standard deviation to adjust Bollinger Band width (default: 1.0).
Source: Input price data (default: close).
Long Threshold: Bearish momentum level below which a long entry signal is generated (default: 40).
Sell Threshold: Bullish momentum level below which an exit signal is generated (default: 80).
Plot Signals on Main Chart: Option to display entry/exit signals on the price chart instead of the oscillator panel (default: false).
Style:
Bullish Color: Color for bullish momentum plot (default: #f23645).
Bearish Color: Color for bearish momentum plot (default: #089981).
Visual Features
Bull and Bear Plots: Displayed as colored lines with gradient fills for visual clarity.
Midline: Horizontal line at 50 for reference.
Threshold Lines: Dashed green line for Long Threshold and dashed red line for Sell Threshold.
Signal Dots:
Long Entry: Tiny blue dots (below price bar or at oscillator bottom).
Exit: Tiny white dots (above price bar or at oscillator top).
How to Use
Add to Chart: Apply the indicator to your TradingView chart.
Adjust Settings: Customize the Length, Multiplier, Long Threshold, and Sell Threshold to suit your trading strategy.
Interpret Signals:
Enter a long position when a blue dot appears, indicating bearish momentum dropping below the Long Threshold.
Exit the long position when a white dot appears, indicating bullish momentum dropping below the Sell Threshold.
Toggle Plot Location: Enable Plot Signals on Main Chart to display signals on the price chart for easier integration with price action analysis.
Combine with Other Tools: Use alongside other indicators (e.g., trendlines, support/resistance) to confirm signals.
Notes
This indicator is inspired by LuxAlgo’s Bollinger Bands Breakout Oscillator but has been enhanced with customizable entry/exit thresholds and signal plotting options.
Best used in conjunction with other technical analysis tools to filter false signals, especially in choppy or range-bound markets.
Adjust the Multiplier to make the Bollinger Bands wider or narrower, affecting the sensitivity of the momentum calculations.

S/D-QTECHSupply and Demand Level Indicator
The Supply and Demand Level Indicator is a dynamic market analysis tool designed to visualize potential turning points in price by identifying zones of hesitation and imbalance in the market. It aims to help traders better understand where buying or selling pressure may emerge, allowing for more informed trading decisions.
This indicator automatically detects and draws supply (resistance) and demand (support) levels based on price behavior. Specifically:
Supply Levels (Red Lines): These are drawn when the market shows hesitation or stalls during upward movement, indicating potential selling pressure. Once price moves above a supply level, that level is invalidated and the red line is removed.
Demand Levels (Blue Lines): These are formed when price hesitates or consolidates on the way down, suggesting possible buying interest. When the price drops below a demand level, it is considered broken, and the blue line is removed.
The concept is rooted in the idea that markets rarely move in straight lines. Price often pauses, pulls back, or consolidates, reflecting shifts in trader sentiment or institutional activity. This indicator captures those moments of hesitation and marks them as potential zones where future reactions might occur.
Dynamic Behavior and Market Character
The strength of this indicator lies in its adaptability. Markets change — sometimes they trend smoothly, and at other times they behave erratically. The levels generated by the indicator reflect this: in fast, smooth markets, fewer levels may be plotted, while in choppier conditions, more lines can appear, showing clusters of indecision.
These lines are not meant to be predictive with pinpoint accuracy, but rather as visual guides for where the market has previously shown hesitation. They can help you frame risk, manage trade entries, and avoid chasing price blindly.
A Note on Trader Psychology
While the indicator provides objective levels, your interpretation matters. Every trader operates on different timeframes, tolerates risk differently, and has unique decision-making styles. A level that holds significance for one trader might be noise to another. Always factor in your own strategy, discipline, and timing when using these tools.
Engineer_Invest Target SellEngineer_Invest Target Sell is a Simple and Affordable Tool for Exiting a Deal
Engineer_Invest Target Sell is an indicator that helps you quickly determine the best levels for profit taking. It is designed in such a way that it is easy for even a beginner to understand when it is worth selling an asset.
The way it works:
1. Two levels for sale:
The indicator calculates two key points (or lines) on the chart where it is beneficial to lock in profits. This helps you see where you can reduce your risk and lock in revenue.
2. Three modes for different market moods:
Depending on the market volatility, the setup is divided into three modes:
Target Sell 3 (High Volatility): for fast market movements.
Target Sell 2 (Average Volatility): for balanced conditions.
Target Sell 1 (Low Volatility): for quiet trading sessions.
This separation allows the indicator to be adapted to any market conditions.
Simple settings:
You can choose the type of moving average (SMA or EMA) and adjust the transparency and color of the labels so that the information on the chart is as clear and easy to understand as possible.
Ease of use:
Visibility:
The indicator draws lines and marks directly on the chart, which allows you to immediately see the key levels for exiting a trade.
Adaptability:
Three modes allow you to adjust to the current market conditions — from rapid dynamics to a calm trend.
Easy to use:
Minimal settings and intuitive visualization allow you to quickly learn how to use the tool and make informed decisions.
BB VolatilityBB Volatility indicator is monitoring the famous Bollinger Bands volatility in a normalised manner.
Could not find anything similar so thought this would be useful.
For confirmation signals of the BB to move into one or another direction it is complemented with SMA and EMA.
Additionally, it is complemented with Min Level of BB line - a level user can define and decide to use or not for even stronger conviction for a potential BB expansion.
How to use?
As it monitors when the BB narrows, it helps to identify potential price breakout moments in one or another direction.
Users can adjust duration and Min Level inputs as per security they are interested.
For better visualisation purposes, the background is plotted light green when BB crosses both SMA and EMA upwards. And plotted light red when BB crosses both downwards. Users can also adjust the colors as per their preferences.
This indicator just helps to define potential BB expansion moments. No indicator alone is perfect and for most effective use needs to be complemented with overall market context and other chart patterns.
200 SMA + VWAP + Manual ADX Entry Signal200 SMA + VWAP + Manual ADX Entry Signal – Indicator Description
This custom indicator is designed for trend-following intraday traders who want a powerful, rules-based entry confirmation system. It combines three proven tools—the 200-period Simple Moving Average (SMA), Volume-Weighted Average Price (VWAP), and a manually coded ADX (Average Directional Index)—to identify high-probability long entries in strong, directional markets.
By filtering trades through a combination of trend direction, mean-reversion reference, and momentum strength, this indicator helps traders avoid false breakouts, whipsaws, and low-quality setups. It’s particularly well-suited for traders using 15-minute charts, leveraged ETFs, or high-beta stocks, where precision entries and trend confirmation are critical to consistent profitability.
⸻
✅ What This Indicator Does
This indicator visually displays:
• The 200-period SMA (orange line) – a long-term trend filter.
• The VWAP (blue line) – a dynamic intraday price average used by institutions.
• A buy signal triangle below the price bar – when all bullish criteria are met.
• It also includes an alert condition so traders can be notified when a new buy signal appears in real time.
Behind the scenes, the indicator calculates trend and strength conditions and plots a BUY signal only when all three tools agree that a bullish move is in play.
⸻
🔍 The Three-Pillar Entry System
1. 200 SMA Filter – Defining Market Bias
The 200 SMA is a widely used institutional benchmark that represents long-term trend direction. In this indicator:
• A trade is only considered valid if price is above the 200 SMA.
• This helps eliminate trades in downtrending or range-bound markets.
• It ensures that entries are aligned with broader directional bias.
By filtering out trades below the 200 SMA, you instantly remove a majority of low-probability setups and whipsaw environments.
⸻
2. VWAP – Institutional Mean Price Anchor
VWAP (Volume-Weighted Average Price) is often used by hedge funds and algorithmic systems to judge whether price is considered “expensive” or “cheap” within a given trading session.
• This version of VWAP is anchored to the current intraday session.
• Trades are only considered valid if price is above the VWAP, which shows market consensus is favoring the upside.
• VWAP provides both confirmation and support levels, helping ensure your entry isn’t into overextended territory.
By combining the 200 SMA and VWAP filters, the indicator ensures that trades are only taken when price is strong on both the macro and micro timeframes.
⸻
3. ADX – Confirming Momentum Strength
ADX (Average Directional Index) is used to measure trend strength without regard to direction. However, TradingView has limited functionality with the ta.adx() call in some environments, so this script includes a custom-coded version of ADX that follows standard Wilder’s smoothing and directional movement logic.
• A BUY signal only triggers if ADX is above a user-defined threshold (default is 20) and rising from the previous bar.
• This means not only is the market trending — but the trend is strengthening.
This final filter prevents entries in chop or decaying rallies, and ensures you’re catching the strongest part of a move, not the tail end.
⸻
⚙️ Logic Summary
A BUY signal is plotted when:
• Price > 200 SMA ✅
• Price > VWAP ✅
• ADX > 20 and rising ✅
Only when all three conditions are true does the indicator plot a green triangle below the price bar.
This visual simplicity makes it ideal for fast trade decisions, and the alert function allows hands-free monitoring during busy sessions.
⸻
🧠 Recommended Use
This indicator works best on:
• 15-minute to 1-hour charts
• Intraday leveraged ETFs (e.g., TQQQ, SPYU, SQQQ)
• Trend-following strategies
• Breakout continuation trades
⸻
📉 Limitations
• This is a long-only system by design. If you want to trade short, you’ll need to invert the logic (e.g., price < 200 SMA, price < VWAP, ADX > threshold).
• It doesn’t generate exit signals. You should pair this with your own take-profit or trailing stop strategy.
• While it works great for momentum entries, it may underperform in range-bound or news-driven chop markets.
⸻
🛠️ Settings Customization
• SMA Length: default is 200; adjust for faster or slower trend confirmation.
• ADX Length: default is 14; shorter periods = more sensitive, longer = smoother.
• ADX Threshold: default is 20; raise to 25 or 30 to only catch very strong moves.
These settings give you flexibility to match the indicator to your trading style.
⸻
🚀 Final Thoughts
The 200 SMA + VWAP + Manual ADX Entry Signal is a battle-tested, rule-based tool to help you:
• Enter only when the trend, mean, and momentum align
• Avoid fakeouts and poor risk-reward entries
• Automate part of your setup process without overcomplication
This is the kind of filter used by professional traders to reduce screen time and improve trade quality. If you’re looking to build confidence in your intraday trading with clear, logical entries — this indicator will help you stay consistent and systematic.
Happy trading!
Historical Volatility with HV Average & High/Low Trendlines
### 📊 **Indicator Title**: Historical Volatility with HV Average & High/Low Trendlines
**Version**: Pine Script v5
**Purpose**:
This script visualizes market volatility using **Historical Volatility (HV)** and enhances analysis by:

---
### 🔧 **Inputs**:
1. **HV Length (`length`)**:
Controls how many bars are used to calculate Historical Volatility.
*(Default: 10)*
2. **Average Length (`avgLength`)**:
Number of bars used for calculating the moving average of HV.
*(Default: 20)*
3. **Trendline Lookback Period (`trendLookback`)**:
Number of bars to look back for calculating the highest and lowest values of HV.
*(Default: 100)*
---
### 📈 **Core Calculations**:
1. **Historical Volatility (`hv`)**:
$$
HV = 100 \times \text{stdev}\left(\ln\left(\frac{\text{close}}{\text{close} }\right), \text{length}\right) \times \sqrt{\frac{365}{\text{period}}}
$$
* Measures how much the stock price fluctuates.
* Adjusts annualization factor depending on whether it's intraday or daily.
2. **HV Moving Average (`hvAvg`)**:
A simple moving average (SMA) of HV over the selected `avgLength`.
3. **HV High & Low Trendlines**:
* `hvHigh`: Highest HV value over the last `trendLookback` bars.
* `hvLow`: Lowest HV value over the last `trendLookback` bars.
---
### 🖍️ **Visual Plots**:
* 🔵 **HV**: Blue line showing raw Historical Volatility.
* 🔴 **HV Average**: Red line (thicker) indicating smoothed HV trend.
* 🟢 **HV High**: Green horizontal line marking volatility peaks.
* 🟠 **HV Low**: Orange horizontal line marking volatility lows.
---
### ✅ **Usage**:
* **High HV**: Indicates increased risk or potential breakout conditions.
* **Low HV**: Suggests consolidation or calm markets.
* **Cross of HV above Average**: May signal rising volatility (e.g., before breakout).
* **Touching High/Low Levels**: Helps identify volatility extremes and possible reversal zones.
Squeeze & Breakout Confirmation StrategyThis strategy focuses on identifying periods of low volatility (Bollinger Band Squeeze) and then confirming the direction of the subsequent breakout with momentum, volume, and candle strength.
Concepts Applied: Bollinger Bands (Squeeze), RSI (Momentum), Market Volume (Conviction), Candle Size (Strength)
Buy Signal:
Bollinger Band Squeeze: Look for a period where the Bollinger Bands contract significantly, indicating low volatility and consolidation. The bands should be very close to the price action.
RSI Breakout: After the squeeze, wait for the price to break decisively above the upper Bollinger Band. Simultaneously, the RSI should break above 60 (or even 70), indicating strong bullish momentum.
Volume Surge: The breakout candle should be accompanied by a significant increase in trading volume, ideally above its recent average, confirming strong buying interest.
Strong Bullish Candle: The breakout candle itself should be a large, bullish candle (e.g., a strong green candle with a small upper wick or a bullish engulfing pattern), demonstrating buyer conviction.
Sell Signal (Short):
Bollinger Band Squeeze: Look for a period where the Bollinger Bands contract significantly.
RSI Breakdown: After the squeeze, wait for the price to break decisively below the lower Bollinger Band. Simultaneously, the RSI should break below 40 (or even 30), indicating strong bearish momentum.
Volume Surge: The breakdown candle should be accompanied by a significant increase in trading volume, ideally above its recent average, confirming strong selling interest.
Strong Bearish Candle: The breakdown candle itself should be a large, bearish candle (e.g., a strong red candle with a small lower wick or a bearish engulfing pattern), demonstrating seller conviction.
Rainbow Price Chart This indicator is a technical and on-chain analysis tool for Bitcoin, designed to help investors better understand the different phases of the market cycle and underlying sentiment. It directly overlays on the price chart (overlay=true).
Indicator Name: "Rainbow Price Chart & V/T Ratio Signals"
General Purpose:
It combines two popular methodologies for visualizing Bitcoin's value and sentiment: the classic "Rainbow Price Chart" and signals derived from the "Value per Transaction Ratio" (V/T Ratio) based on blockchain data. It is ideal for long-term investors looking for strategic entry/exit points.
Main Components:
Rainbow Price Chart:
Concept: Divides Bitcoin's price range into different market "sentiment zones" (e.g., "Bubble Zone," "FOMO Zone," "HODL Zone," "Accumulation Zone," "Buy Zone," "Fire Sale Zone") using colored bands. These bands are calculated as ascending and descending multiples of a base Exponential Moving Average (EMA), configurable by default to 200 periods.
Visualization: The zones are represented with transparent color fills on the price chart. A detailed legend in the top right corner of the chart explains the meaning of each color and sentiment zone.
Important Note: This type of chart is designed to be viewed and analyzed correctly on a logarithmic price scale. The indicator includes a visual reminder to activate this scale.
Value per Transaction (V/T) Ratio Signals:
Concept: Measures the average value per transaction on the Bitcoin blockchain by dividing the total transacted volume in USD by the number of transactions. This ratio is smoothed with an Exponential Moving Average (by default, 7 periods) and is framed within a dynamic Linear Regression Channel (LRC) based on standard deviation.
Signal Generation: Based on the position of the smoothed V/T Ratio within this LRC channel, the indicator generates signals directly on the price chart, such as:
"BOTTOM": Low price, V/T Ratio in the lower band of the LRC.
"SEMI-LOW" / "SEMI-HIGH": Intermediate phases within the channel.
"ATH" (All-Time High): Potentially overvalued price, V/T Ratio in the upper band of the LRC.
On-Chain Data: The indicator requests external daily on-chain data for total transacted volume (TVTVR) and number of transactions (NTRAN) from the Bitcoin blockchain.
Diagnostic Panes: Includes plots of the raw on-chain data (volume and number of transactions) in a separate pane, which are useful for debugging or verifying the data source. The lines for the V/T Ratio itself and its LRC channel are not plotted by default but can be activated in the code for deeper analysis.
Ideal for:
Bitcoin investors and "hodlers" who desire a visual tool that combines price-based market cycle context with fundamental signals derived from on-chain activity, to help identify key moments for accumulation or potential distribution.
Considerations:
Relies on the availability of external on-chain data (QUANDL:BCHAIN) within TradingView.
Functions best on a daily timeframe.
FeraTrading Compression Flow v1🧠 Overview:
The FeraTrading Compression Flow v1 identifies moments in the market where volatility contracts and directional momentum builds beneath the surface. It detects when price compresses into a tight range, then confirms when momentum, volatility, and trend alignment combine to signal a high-probability breakout. Once all conditions are met, the indicator activates a persistent directional bias, shown visually with colored dynamic bands.
This isn’t just another squeeze or Bollinger-style compression indicator—it adds multi-layered confirmation logic and unique bias persistence mechanics, helping traders stay aligned with trend-based breakout phases rather than just spotting volatility drops.
⚙️ How It Works:
🔹 Volatility Compression Detection:
Uses a relative ATR filter to detect when the market is in contraction.
Compares short-term range behavior to a longer-term average using a customizable multiplier.
Avoids standard band-width logic (like BB/KC), instead relying on raw candle volatility for more adaptive compression detection.
🔹 Breakout Confirmation Logic:
A breakout is confirmed only when all of the following align:
Strong Candle Body: Filters out indecision bars and ensures clear directional intent.
EMA Trend Structure: Fast EMA must be properly aligned with the slow EMA, and price must close beyond the fast EMA in the breakout direction.
Range Burst: Breakout candle must exceed historical range norms, confirming an actual volatility expansion—not a false breakout.
Each layer is required—no single condition is enough—creating a highly selective confirmation system that filters out noise.
🔹 Bias Persistence Mechanism:
Once a valid breakout is confirmed, the script activates a persistent directional bias (bullish or bearish).
The bias does not flip unless an opposing breakout confirms.
This eliminates premature resets and allows traders to hold trend alignment visually until true reversal conditions are met.
🎨 Visual Behavior:
📈 Band Calculations:
Bands are drawn using smoothed highs and lows, plus or minus a scaled ATR-based buffer.
They adjust dynamically to both price scale and volatility, expanding and contracting naturally with the market.
🎨 Band Coloring:
Green bands = Bullish breakout confirmed
Red bands = Bearish breakout confirmed
No color = Compression detected, but no directional breakout yet
These are not support/resistance levels. They are momentum flow visualizations, providing a clean, unobtrusive way to track trend phases post-compression.
💡 What Makes It Unique:
Multi-confirmation logic: Combines compression, candle strength, trend direction, and volatility surge into one system.
Bias memory: Maintains directional bias until structurally invalidated—not just until the next indecisive bar.
Volatility-scaled bands: Makes this system flexible across all assets and timeframes, without constant tweaking.
No lagging oscillators: Instead of using MACD/RSI, it reads real-time momentum through body-to-range relationships and EMA stacking.
Minimal input, maximum output: With only two adjustable inputs, the script remains simple to deploy while offering deep contextual information.
✅ How to Use It:
Add the indicator to any chart (15m and lower preferred).
Watch for band color changes:
Green = Bullish breakout phase
Red = Bearish breakout phase
Use band direction as a trend alignment filter.
Avoid trading against active bias unless part of a confirmed reversal setup.
Adjust the Input Multiplier to fine-tune compression strictness (lower = stricter, higher = more permissive).
This indicator is especially useful following periods of consolidation and works well when layered with structure, supply/demand zones, or volume overlays.
💎 Why It’s Worth Paying For
The FeraTrading Compression Flow v1 offers a uniquely structured approach to breakout detection. While most compression indicators only highlight low-volatility zones, this script confirms breakouts through confluence, activates persistent bias, and provides a visual flow overlay that dynamically adjusts to the market.
Key distinctions include:
A custom ATR-based compression filter that adapts to any asset
Breakout confirmation from price structure, EMAs, and body dominance
A bias persistence engine that filters out false flips and maintains trend visibility
Dynamic bands that scale based on both price and volatility—not just moving averages
This combination cannot be replicated with built-in indicators or open-source scripts. It reflects real trade experience, structural logic, and volatility awareness built into a visual format designed to reduce overtrading and improve signal trust.
✅ Compliance & Originality
This script was built entirely in-house using original logic. Every calculation—from compression detection to bias activation—is proprietary and coded from scratch. No open-source libraries or reused components are present. Band rendering, bias conditions, and signal architecture were designed specifically for this model. EMA's and ATR were used in filter logic, yet they are only 2 of many filters used, all of the others being fully custom built.
The script uses no external data sources and is built entirely on native Pine Script logic.
⚠️ Risk Disclaimer & Access Policy
This tool is a visual momentum and structure tracking overlay. It does not predict future price movement and should not be used in isolation to make trading decisions. Always apply proper risk management, position sizing, and market awareness.
Past performance does not guarantee future results.
🔒 Why This Script Is Invite-Only and Closed-Source
The compression detection logic, multi-step breakout confirmation, and persistent bias engine represent proprietary intellectual property developed for high-clarity directional tracking.
Releasing this logic would expose the core detection methods to copycats and diminish its edge. Access is restricted to protect:
The custom compression logic
The confluence-based breakout filters
The bias state engine and dynamic band visualizations
Closed-source protection ensures this tool retains its uniqueness and value for serious traders.

ATR Spike KienthogoATR Spike Kienthogo
This indicator, titled "ATR Spike Kienthogo", is designed to visualize volatility spikes in the market by comparing the current Average True Range (ATR) against a dynamic threshold. The threshold is calculated as an EMA-smoothed ATR multiplied by a user-defined factor. When the current ATR exceeds this threshold, the indicator highlights it as a spike event, further classified by price direction (up or down).
The script features:
Configurable ATR smoothing methods: RMA, SMA, EMA, WMA.
Customizable spike detection threshold via spike_multiple.
Conditional color plotting of ATR:
Spike + Price Up → Green
Spike + Price Down → Red
Non-spike → User-defined neutral color, adaptive to candle direction (greenish for bullish candles, reddish for bearish candles).
This script is especially useful for:
Detecting volatility expansions.
Enhancing entry/exit timing during strong directional moves.
Confirming breakout strength or trap signals in low-volatility regimes.
The logic maintains clean separation between spike vs. non-spike conditions and offers full control over color coding for better visual integration in multi-indicator environments.
Volatility-Adjusted Momentum Score (VAMS) [QuantAlgo]🟢 Overview
The Volatility-Adjusted Momentum Score (VAMS) measures price momentum relative to current volatility conditions, creating a normalized indicator that identifies significant directional moves while filtering out market noise. It divides annualized momentum by annualized volatility to produce scores that remain comparable across different market environments and asset classes.
The indicator displays a smoothed VAMS Z-Score line with adaptive standard deviation bands and an information table showing real-time metrics. This dual-purpose design enables traders and investors to identify strong trend continuation signals when momentum persistently exceeds normal levels, while also spotting potential mean reversion opportunities when readings reach statistical extremes.
🟢 How It Works
The indicator calculates annualized momentum using a simple moving average of logarithmic returns over a specified period, then measures annualized volatility through the standard deviation of those same returns over a longer timeframe. The raw VAMS score divides momentum by volatility, creating a risk-adjusted measure where high volatility reduces scores and low volatility amplifies them.
This raw VAMS value undergoes Z-Score normalization using rolling statistical parameters, converting absolute readings into standardized deviations that show how current conditions compare to recent history. The normalized Z-Score receives exponential moving average smoothing to create the final VAMS line, reducing false signals while preserving sensitivity to meaningful momentum changes.
The visualization includes dynamically calculated standard deviation bands that adjust to recent VAMS behavior, creating statistical reference zones. The information table provides real-time numerical values for VAMS Z-Score, underlying momentum percentages, and current volatility readings with trend indicators.
🟢 How to Use
1. VAMS Z-Score Bands and Signal Interpretation
Above Mean Line: Momentum exceeds historical averages adjusted for volatility, indicating bullish conditions suitable for trend following
Below Mean Line: Momentum falls below statistical norms, suggesting bearish conditions or downward pressure
Mean Line Crossovers: Primary transition signals between bullish and bearish momentum regimes
1 Standard Deviation Breaks: Strong momentum conditions indicating statistically significant directional moves worth following
2 Standard Deviation Extremes: Rare momentum readings that often signal either powerful breakouts or exhaustion points
2. Information Table and Market Context
Z-Score Values: Current VAMS reading displayed in standard deviations (σ), showing how far momentum deviates from its statistical norm
Momentum Percentage: Underlying annualized momentum displayed as percentage return, quantifying the directional strength
Volatility Context: Current annualized volatility levels help interpret whether VAMS readings occur in high or low volatility environments
Trend Indicators: Directional arrows and change values provide immediate feedback on momentum shifts and market transitions
3. Strategy Applications and Alert System
Trend Following: Use sustained readings beyond the mean line and 1σ band penetrations for directional trades, especially when VAMS maintains position in upper or lower statistical zones
Mean Reversion: Focus on 2σ extreme readings for contrarian opportunities, particularly effective in sideways markets where momentum tends to revert to statistical norms
Alert Notifications: Built-in alerts for mean crossovers (regime changes), 1σ breaks (strong signals), and 2σ touches (extreme conditions) help monitor multiple instruments for both continuation and reversal setups
Breakout Strategy with Dynamic SL LabelDescription:
This script identifies breakout trading opportunities using adaptive support and resistance levels, adjusted dynamically based on market volatility. A trade signal is generated only when a breakout candle is followed by a confirming close in the same direction. The signal is displayed on the chart as a labeled marker that includes a suggested stop-loss level based on the highest high or lowest low of the past 10 bars, ensuring structure-aware risk management.
🧩 How it Works:
Adaptive S/R Zones: Based on volatility-normalized swing highs/lows using ATR. These zones automatically adjust to changing market conditions.
Confirmation Logic: Trade signals only appear after the second candle confirms the breakout, helping reduce false signals.
Single Signal Rule: Only one buy or sell label is printed per breakout level, avoiding repeated triggers.
Embedded Stop Loss in Label: SL value is calculated from the 10-bar high (for shorts) or low (for longs) and included in the signal label.
⚙️ User Inputs Explained:
Base Swing Strength: Controls the pivot sensitivity; higher values detect stronger reversal points.
Line Duration: Number of bars that horizontal S/R levels remain visible.
ATR Period: Length used to calculate volatility for adaptive S/R logic.
Volatility Sensitivity: Adjusts how responsive the S/R zone strength is to volatility. Higher = more responsive.
Stop-Loss Lookback (Bars): Defines the number of candles to reference when calculating SL from high/low structure.
Max Lines Stored: Controls chart clutter by limiting how many S/R zones are kept active.
🟩 Ideal for:
Breakout traders who value clean structure, confirmation, and built-in risk logic.
Scalpers and swing traders looking for adaptive, low-latency signals without repainting.
Chartists who want minimal indicators but maximum signal clarity.
Uptrick: Fusion Trend Reversion SystemOverview
The Uptrick: Fusion Trend Reversion System is a multi-layered indicator designed to identify potential price reversals during intraday movement while keeping traders informed of the dominant short-term trend. It blends a composite fair value model with deviation logic and a refined momentum filter using the Relative Strength Index (RSI). This tool was created with scalpers and short-term traders in mind and is especially effective on lower timeframes such as 1-minute, 5-minute, and 15-minute charts where price dislocations and quick momentum shifts are frequent.
Introduction
This indicator is built around the fusion of two classic concepts in technical trading: identifying trend direction and spotting potential reversion points. These are often handled separately, but this system merges them into one process. It starts by computing a fair value price using five moving averages, each with its own mathematical structure and strengths. These include the exponential moving average (EMA), which gives more weight to recent data; the simple moving average (SMA), which gives equal weight to all periods; the weighted moving average (WMA), which progressively increases weight with recency; the Arnaud Legoux moving average (ALMA), known for smoothing without lag; and the volume-weighted average price (VWAP), which factors in volume at each price level.
All five are averaged into a single value — the raw fusion line. This fusion acts as a dynamically balanced centerline that adapts to price conditions with both smoothing and responsiveness. Two additional exponential moving averages are applied to the raw fusion line. One is slower, giving a stable trend reference, and the other is faster, used to define momentum and cloud behavior. These two lines — the fusion slow and fusion fast — form the backbone of trend and signal logic.
Purpose
This system is meant for traders who want to trade reversals without losing sight of the underlying directional bias. Many reversal indicators fail because they act too early or signal too frequently in choppy markets. This script filters out noise through two conditions: price deviation and RSI confirmation. Reversion trades are considered only when the price moves a significant distance from fair value and RSI suggests a legitimate shift in momentum. That filtering process gives the trader a cleaner, higher-quality signal and reduces false entries.
The indicator also visually supports the trader through colored bars, up/down labels, and a filled cloud between the fast and slow fusion lines. These features make the market context immediately visible: whether the trend is up or down, whether a reversal just occurred, and whether price is currently in a high-risk reversion zone.
Originality and Uniqueness
What makes this script different from most reversal systems is the way it combines layers of logic — not just to detect signals, but to qualify and structure them. Rather than relying on a single MA or a raw RSI level, it uses a five-MA fusion to create a baseline fair value that incorporates speed, stability, and volume-awareness.
On top of that, the system introduces a dual-smoothing mechanism. It doesn’t just smooth price once — it creates two layers: one to follow the general trend and another to track faster deviations. This structure lets the script distinguish between continuation moves and possible turning points more effectively than a single-line or single-metric system.
It also uses RSI in a more refined way. Instead of just checking if RSI is overbought or oversold, the script smooths RSI and requires directional confirmation. Beyond that, it includes signal memory. Once a signal is generated, a new one will not appear unless the RSI becomes even more extreme and curls back again. This memory-based gating reduces signal clutter and prevents repetition, a rare feature in similar scripts.
Why these indicators were merged
Each moving average in the fusion serves a specific role. EMA reacts quickly to recent price changes and is often favored in fast-trading strategies. SMA acts as a long-term filter and smooths erratic behavior. WMA blends responsiveness with smoothing in a more balanced way. ALMA focuses on minimizing lag without losing detail, which is helpful in fast markets. VWAP anchors price to real trade volume, giving a sense of where actual positioning is happening.
By combining all five, the script creates a fair value model that doesn’t lean too heavily on one logic type. This fusion is then smoothed into two separate EMAs: one slower (trend layer), one faster (signal layer). The difference between these forms the basis of the trend cloud, which can be toggled on or off visually.
RSI is then used to confirm whether price is reversing with enough force to warrant a trade. The RSI is calculated over a 14-period window and smoothed with a 7-period EMA. The reason for smoothing RSI is to cut down on noise and avoid reacting to short, insignificant spikes. A signal is only considered if price is stretched away from the trend line and the smoothed RSI is in a reversal state — below 30 and rising for bullish setups, above 70 and falling for bearish ones.
Calculations
The script follows this structure:
Calculate EMA, SMA, WMA, ALMA, and VWAP using the same base length
Average the five values to form the raw fusion line
Smooth the raw fusion line with an EMA using sens1 to create the fusion slow line
Smooth the raw fusion line with another EMA using sens2 to create the fusion fast line
If fusion slow is rising and price is above it, trend is bullish
If fusion slow is falling and price is below it, trend is bearish
Calculate RSI over 14 periods
Smooth RSI using a 7-period EMA
Determine deviation as the absolute difference between current price and fusion slow
A raw signal is flagged if deviation exceeds the threshold
A raw signal is flagged if RSI EMA is under 30 and rising (bullish setup)
A raw signal is flagged if RSI EMA is over 70 and falling (bearish setup)
A final signal is confirmed for a bullish setup if RSI EMA is lower than the last bullish signal’s RSI
A final signal is confirmed for a bearish setup if RSI EMA is higher than the last bearish signal’s RSI
Reset the bullish RSI memory if RSI EMA rises above 30
Reset the bearish RSI memory if RSI EMA falls below 70
Store last signal direction and use it for optional bar coloring
Draw the trend cloud between fusion fast and fusion slow using fill()
Show signal labels only if showSignals is enabled
Bar and candle colors reflect either trend slope or last signal direction depending on mode selected
How it works
Once the script is loaded, it builds a fusion line by averaging five different types of moving averages. That line is smoothed twice into a fast and slow version. These two fusion lines form the structure for identifying trend direction and signal areas.
Trend bias is defined by the slope of the slow line. If the slow line is rising and price is above it, the market is considered bullish. If the slow line is falling and price is below it, it’s considered bearish.
Meanwhile, the script monitors how far price has moved from that slow line. If price is stretched beyond a certain distance (set by the threshold), and RSI confirms that momentum is reversing, a raw reversion signal is created. But the script only allows that signal to show if RSI has moved further into oversold or overbought territory than it did at the last signal. This blocks repetitive, weak entries. The memory is cleared only if RSI exits the zone — above 30 for bullish, below 70 for bearish.
Once a signal is accepted, a label is drawn. If the signal toggle is off, no label will be shown regardless of conditions. Bar colors are controlled separately — you can color them based on trend slope or last signal, depending on your selected mode.
