Volume Bars [jpkxyz]
Multi-Timeframe Volume indicator by @jpkxyz
This script is a Multi-Timeframe Volume Z-Score Indicator. It dynamically calculates /the Z-Score of volume over different timeframes to assess how significantly current
volume deviates from its historical average. The Z-Score is computed for each
timeframe independently and is based on a user-defined lookback period. The
script switches between timeframes automatically, adapting to the chart's current
timeframe using `timeframe.multiplier`.
The Z-Score formula used is: (current volume - mean) / standard deviation, where
mean and standard deviation are calculated over the lookback period.
The indicator highlights periods of "significant" and "massive" volume by comparing
the Z-Score to user-specified thresholds (`zScoreThreshold` for significant volume
and `massiveZScoreThreshold` for massive volume). The script flags buy or sell
conditions based on whether the current close is higher or lower than the open.
Visual cues:
- Dark Green for massive buy volume.
- Red for massive sell volume.
- Green for significant buy volume.
- Orange for significant sell volume.
- Gray for normal volume.
The script also provides customizable alert conditions for detecting significant or massive buy/sell volume events, allowing users to set real-time alerts.

VWAP RangeThe VWAP Range indicator is a highly versatile and innovative tool designed with trading signals for trading the supply and demand within consolidation ranges.
What's a VWAP?
A VWAP (Volume Weighted Average Price) represents an equilibrium point in the market, balancing supply and demand over a specified period. Unlike simple moving averages, VWAP gives more weight to periods with higher volume. This is crucial because large volumes indicate significant trading activity, often by institutional traders, whose actions can reflect deeper market insights or create substantial market movements. The VWAP is also often used as a benchmark to evaluate the efficiency of executed trades. If a trader buys below the VWAP and sells above it, they are generally considered to have transacted favourably.
This is how it works:
Multiple VWAP Anchors:
This indicator uses multiple VWAPs anchored to different optional time periods, such as Daily, Weekly, Monthly, as well as to the highest high a lowest low within those periods. This multiplicity allows for a comprehensive view of the market’s average price based on volume and price, tailored to different trading styles and strategies.
Dynamic and Fixed Periods:
Traders can choose between using dynamic ranges, which reset at the start of each selected period, and specifying a date and time for a particular fixed range to trade. This flexibility is crucial for analyzing price movements within specific ranges or market phases.
Fixed ranges allow VWAPs to be calculated and anchored to a significant market event, the beginning of a consolidation phase or after a major news announcement.
Signal Generation:
The indicator generates buy and sell signals based on the relationship of the price to the VWAPs. It also allows for setting a maximum number of signals in one direction to avoid overtrading or pyramiding. Be sure to wait for the candle close before trading on the signals.
Average Buy/Sell Signal Lines:
Lines can be plotted to display the average buy and sell signal prices. The difference between the lines shows the average profit per trade when trading on the signals in that range. It's a good way to see how profitable a range is on average without backtesting the signals. The lines will also often turn into support and resistance areas, similar to value areas in a volume profile.
Customizable Settings:
Traders have control over various settings, such as the VWAP calculation method and bar color. There are also tooltips for every function.
Hidden Feature:
There's a subtle feature in this indicator: if you have 'Indicator values' turned on in TradingView, you'll see a Sell/Buy Ratio displayed only in the status line. This ratio indicates whether there are more sell signals than buy signals in a range, regardless of the Max Signals setting. A red value above 1 suggests that the market is trending upward, indicating you might want to hold your long positions a bit longer. Conversely, a green value below 1 implies a downward trend.
True VolumeThis indicator is designed to provide in-depth analysis of volume data from multiple sources and distinguish highly liquid candles by measuring the density of the volume. By focusing on the density and concentration of volume, rather than just the volume itself, it offers a more nuanced view of the market. This can be particularly beneficial in markets like cryptocurrencies, where understanding the role of market makers versus retail traders is crucial for strategic trading.
This is how it works:
Multiple Asset Integration:
Unlike standard volume indicators, True Volume allows the inclusion of up to four different assets (or the same asset from various exchanges) into its volume calculations. This feature provides a broader and more accurate total volume representation, essential in markets like cryptocurrencies where volume is dispersed across multiple exchanges.
Adjustable Time Anchors:
It offers various time anchor options, allowing traders to analyze volume data over different time periods or a specific amount of lookback candles. This flexibility helps in understanding volume trends over both short and long-term time frames.
Volume Density Analysis:
The core of this indicator is the innovative concept of Volume Density. It's calculated using a sigmoid function that normalizes the volume-to-price movement ratio in a unique way without needing a max cap or having the density column spike off the chart. This method helps in distinguishing between normal volume fluctuations and those that are unusually dense for the given price movement. This distinction is key in identifying potential market maker activities.
The Visuals:
The Volume Density is displayed in a unique way without compromising the original volume bars or cap the density. Infinite density can essentially be represented without having an infinitely large bar or caping out the density data. There's also two different color themes, optional bar color, and an option to flip the density bars up-side down for a different representation. Each of the original volume sources can be displayed separately as well. All colors as customizable as well for your own preference.
Price Volume Trend (PVT):
Included in this indicator is also the Price Volume Trend, which cumulatively measures the density delta, offering insights into the longer-term momentum of the market.
How do I trade it?
This indicator aims to give you insight into 'the other side of the trade', the Market Makers. When you buy, they provide liquidity by selling to you. That drives the Volume Density up.
Consider whether the market maker is currently long or short and might need to cover their position by wicking price back, or "adjust inventory". Especially towards the end of a market session.
Consider dense candles during market gaps or weekends to be market manipulation moves.
The density also goes up when stop losses are hit. If price makes a higher high or lower low, high density could indicate a liquidation event.
Colored VWAP and BarcolorThis indicator plots the Volume Weighted Average Price (VWAP) as well as changes the bar color if the current price is above or below VWAP, for quick visual reference.
Background Information
Straight from TradingView, "Volume Weighted Average Price (VWAP) is a technical analysis tool used to measure the average price weighted by volume. VWAP is typically used with intraday charts as a way to determine the general direction of intraday prices. It's similar to a moving average in that when price is above VWAP, prices are rising and when price is below VWAP, prices are falling. VWAP is primarily used by technical analysts to identify market trend."
About the Indicator
This indicator changes the VWAP line color and bar color based on the current price.
Bar Color
Bullish Up Candle Color = Current price is above VWAP and the close of the candle was greater than the open.
Bullish Down Candle Color = Current price is above VWAP and the close of the candle was less than the open.
Bearish Up Candle Color = Current price is below VWAP and the close of the candle was greater than the open.
Bearish Down Candle Color = Current price is below VWAP and the close of the candle was less than the open.
TEWY - Magic Strength Indicator V2My goal is to equip every trader and investor with the essential tools necessary to confidently navigate the complexities of the financial markets, enabling them to consistently identify opportunities and maintain a position of strength on the winning side of their trades. This indicator stands as an immensely powerful tool, delivering a comprehensive and robust approach to market analysis and decision-making.
Allow me to provide some context regarding the genesis of this indicator. The global financial landscape encompasses a multitude of markets, ranging from the money market to the stock market, cryptocurrencies, commodities, and beyond. Often, these markets display proportional or inverse correlations, unveiling the intricate interplay between them. At the heart of this concept lies a meticulous comparison between a selected ticker and other analogous markets. This analytical approach serves as a pathway to unearthing invaluable insights and intricate patterns across interconnected sectors.
So, I created this indicator, to empower you with the capability to select and construct combinations of up to seven comparable markets and offer a comprehensive perspective on market dynamics.
Let me to elucidate the intricacies of this indicator and delve into its versatile configurations. By understanding its components and tailoring its settings, traders can harness its full potential to make informed and strategic trading decisions.
Related to indicator configuration sections
Section 1. 'PRIMARY AND SECONDARY INDEX' and Section 2. 'GLOBAL REFERENCE INDEX'
To utilize this indicator, begin by configuring at least one comparison indicator in the "Primary Index" field. Additional options include the secondary index (which can function as a sector index) and five global indices. Furthermore, you have the flexibility to adjust their timeframes, allowing for comparisons across various time horizons.
Section 3. ADVANCED FEATURS
Consider a scenario where you've pulled up a chart for "NSE:BANKNIFTY" and desire to assess the relative strength of "NSE:NIFTY" in comparison to global indices. To accomplish this, explore the Advanced Feature section and toggle the "Use Different Base Ticker" option to "Yes." Subsequently, input "NSE:NIFTY" as the symbol/ticker in the designated box. This ingenious feature empowers you to evaluate the strength of "NSE:NIFTY" the backdrop of the "NSE:BANKNIFTY" chart. The result? A remarkably potent analytical capability at your fingertips! The possibilities it offers are indeed remarkable!
Section 4. LINE AND BARCOLOR RELATED
I have dedicated considerable effort to scrutinize historical patterns within the strength indicator of various symbols. Through meticulous analysis, I've identified pivotal conditions that often herald shifts in market or symbol trends. Leveraging this insight, I've devised a system to determine optimal strength line colors and bar colors. This strategic approach adds a layer of precision to the indicator, enhancing its effectiveness in recognizing and visualizing trend changes.
Recognizing the prevailing tendency of global markets to exhibit more upward momentum than downward movement, I've taken into account this inherent "Long Bias." With this understanding in mind, I've incorporated a unique feature that aims to prompt an early transition from red to green bar colors when there's a potential indication of a trend reversal from a downtrend. By proactively signaling the shift in color dynamics, this feature aligns with the overall upward-leaning nature of the markets, enabling traders/investors to respond swiftly to potential changes in trend direction.
By employing the 'Use Simple Method of Calculation,' the determination of strength line color is executed through a straightforward crossover technique. This approach proves particularly effective in scenarios where inverse correlations exist between the symbols or tickers being compared. Additionally, an 'Inverse Scale' option is available, wherein a simple multiplication by -1 is applied to all values. This ingenious feature offers a convenient perspective on symbols or tickers that exhibit inverse correlations, further enhancing the indicator's adaptability to a wide array of market dynamics.
**** It's important to note that the 'Change Bar Color' option is intentionally set to the default selection of 'No.' By design, only when you opt to set it to 'Yes' do custom bar colors come into play on the chart. This thoughtful design choice acknowledges the potential need to preserve bar colors when seeking to discern inverse correlations between symbols. Should you require a modification in bar colors, kindly select 'Yes' to initiate this change and access the custom color functionality.
Section 5. LABELS
Moreover, to facilitate ease of use and organization, I've included a practical feature for instances where you deploy this indicator multiple times on a single chart. Within this context, should you wish to assign quick tags to each instance, a dedicated free-text box is at your disposal. This allows you to conveniently label and categorize different instances of the indicator, ensuring a streamlined and efficient approach to managing your chart analyses.
I encourage you all to embark on a rewarding journey in your trading and investing endeavors. With this indicator as your ally, equipped with its potent analytical capabilities, may your path be marked by well-informed decisions and prosperous outcomes. Wishing you every success in your trading and investment journey!

D-Bot Alpha All in One BarsThis indicator, known as "D-Bot Alpha All in One Bars," combines various technical analysis methodologies. It amalgamates a range of oscillator-based and moving average-based measures to determine the 'strength' or 'effectiveness' of a particular bar. This could potentially provide investors with an idea of the direction the market is moving.
Each indicator (such as RSI, Stochastic, WPR, MFI, CCI, ADX, RVI, and Volatility) measures a different market condition, and these conditions are combined to form an overall 'bar strength' value. This value is color-coded based on set threshold values (Lower Threshold and Upper Threshold) to indicate a bullish (green) and bearish (red) market condition.
4h
*The indicator works best on timeframes of 4 hours and below. For higher timeframes, you'll need to perform optimization.
The strength of this indicator lies in its ability to provide a broad market view by combining a range of analytical methods. However, its weakness is that each measurement carries equal weight, which can sometimes result in misleading signals.
15m
This indicator is typically used in conjunction with other technical analysis tools. For example, tools that provide a broader market structure, such as trend lines, support and resistance levels, or Fibonacci retracement levels, can be used alongside this indicator.
5m
An example trading strategy could involve monitoring the bar strength of the indicator and making buy trades during green (bullish) bars and sell trades during red (bearish) bars. However, as always, it's important to thoroughly test any trading strategy before implementing it.

Türkçe açıklama:
"D-Bot Alpha All in One Bars" indikatörü çok çeşitli teknik analiz metodolojilerini bir araya getiriyor. İndikatör, bir dizi farklı osilatör ve hareketli ortalama tabanlı ölçütü birleştirerek, belirli bir barın 'gücünü' veya 'etkililiğini' belirlemek için kullanılıyor. Bu, potansiyel olarak yatırımcılara marketin hangi yönde ilerlemek istediğine dair bir fikir verebilir.
Her bir gösterge (RSI, Stokastik, WPR, MFI, CCI, ADX, RVI ve volatilite gibi) kendi başına farklı bir piyasa durumunu ölçüyor ve bu durumlar birleştirilerek genel bir 'bar gücü' değeri elde ediliyor. Bu değer, belirlenen eşik değerlere (Lower Threshold ve Upper Threshold) göre renklendirilerek piyasada bir yükseliş (yeşil) veya düşüş (kırmızı) durumu gösteriyor.
Bu indikatörün güçlü yönleri, bir dizi farklı analitik yöntemi bir araya getirerek geniş bir piyasa görünümü sağlamasıdır. Ancak zayıf yanı, her bir ölçütün ağırlığının eşit olduğu ve bazen yanıltıcı sinyaller verebilecek olmasıdır.
Bu indikatör genellikle diğer teknik analiz araçlarıyla birlikte kullanılmalıdır. Örneğin, eğilim çizgileri, destek ve direnç seviyeleri veya Fibonacci retracement seviyeleri gibi daha genel piyasa yapısı araçları bu indikatörle birlikte kullanılabilir.
Örnek bir işlem stratejisi olarak, indikatörün bar gücünü gözlemleyebilir ve yeşil (yükseliş) barlar sırasında alım, kırmızı (düşüş) barlar sırasında satış yapabilirsiniz. Ancak, her zaman olduğu gibi, herhangi bir trade stratejisi belirlenmeden önce dikkatli bir şekilde test etmek önemlidir.

Dynamic Zones Polychromatic Momentum Candles [Loxx]Dynamic Zones Polychromatic Momentum Candles is a candle coloring, momentum indicator that uses Jurik Filtering and Dynamic Zones to calculate the monochromatic color between two colors.
What is Jurik Volty used in the Juirk Filter?
One of the lesser known qualities of Juirk smoothing is that the Jurik smoothing process is adaptive. "Jurik Volty" (a sort of market volatility ) is what makes Jurik smoothing adaptive. The Jurik Volty calculation can be used as both a standalone indicator and to smooth other indicators that you wish to make adaptive.
What is the Jurik Moving Average?
Have you noticed how moving averages add some lag (delay) to your signals? ... especially when price gaps up or down in a big move, and you are waiting for your moving average to catch up? Wait no more! JMA eliminates this problem forever and gives you the best of both worlds: low lag and smooth lines.
What are Dynamic Zones?
As explained in "Stocks & Commodities V15:7 (306-310): Dynamic Zones by Leo Zamansky, Ph .D., and David Stendahl"
Most indicators use a fixed zone for buy and sell signals. Here’ s a concept based on zones that are responsive to past levels of the indicator.
One approach to active investing employs the use of oscillators to exploit tradable market trends. This investing style follows a very simple form of logic: Enter the market only when an oscillator has moved far above or below traditional trading lev- els. However, these oscillator- driven systems lack the ability to evolve with the market because they use fixed buy and sell zones. Traders typically use one set of buy and sell zones for a bull market and substantially different zones for a bear market. And therein lies the problem.
Once traders begin introducing their market opinions into trading equations, by changing the zones, they negate the system’s mechanical nature. The objective is to have a system automatically define its own buy and sell zones and thereby profitably trade in any market — bull or bear. Dynamic zones offer a solution to the problem of fixed buy and sell zones for any oscillator-driven system.
An indicator’s extreme levels can be quantified using statistical methods. These extreme levels are calculated for a certain period and serve as the buy and sell zones for a trading system. The repetition of this statistical process for every value of the indicator creates values that become the dynamic zones. The zones are calculated in such a way that the probability of the indicator value rising above, or falling below, the dynamic zones is equal to a given probability input set by the trader.
To better understand dynamic zones, let's first describe them mathematically and then explain their use. The dynamic zones definition:
Find V such that:
For dynamic zone buy: P{X <= V}=P1
For dynamic zone sell: P{X >= V}=P2
where P1 and P2 are the probabilities set by the trader, X is the value of the indicator for the selected period and V represents the value of the dynamic zone.
The probability input P1 and P2 can be adjusted by the trader to encompass as much or as little data as the trader would like. The smaller the probability, the fewer data values above and below the dynamic zones. This translates into a wider range between the buy and sell zones. If a 10% probability is used for P1 and P2, only those data values that make up the top 10% and bottom 10% for an indicator are used in the construction of the zones. Of the values, 80% will fall between the two extreme levels. Because dynamic zone levels are penetrated so infrequently, when this happens, traders know that the market has truly moved into overbought or oversold territory.
Calculating the Dynamic Zones
The algorithm for the dynamic zones is a series of steps. First, decide the value of the lookback period t. Next, decide the value of the probability Pbuy for buy zone and value of the probability Psell for the sell zone.
For i=1, to the last lookback period, build the distribution f(x) of the price during the lookback period i. Then find the value Vi1 such that the probability of the price less than or equal to Vi1 during the lookback period i is equal to Pbuy. Find the value Vi2 such that the probability of the price greater or equal to Vi2 during the lookback period i is equal to Psell. The sequence of Vi1 for all periods gives the buy zone. The sequence of Vi2 for all periods gives the sell zone.
In the algorithm description, we have: Build the distribution f(x) of the price during the lookback period i. The distribution here is empirical namely, how many times a given value of x appeared during the lookback period. The problem is to find such x that the probability of a price being greater or equal to x will be equal to a probability selected by the user. Probability is the area under the distribution curve. The task is to find such value of x that the area under the distribution curve to the right of x will be equal to the probability selected by the user. That x is the dynamic zone.

RSI Divergence Scanner by zdmreDivergence is when the price of an asset is moving in the opposite direction of a technical indicator, such as an oscillator, or is moving contrary to other data. Divergence warns that the current price trend may be weakening, and in some cases may lead to the price changing direction.
If the stock is rising and making new highs, ideally the RSI is reaching new highs as well. If the stock is making new highs, but the RSI starts making lower highs, this warns the price uptrend may be weakening. This is negative divergence.
Positive divergence is the opposite situation. Imagine the price of a stock is making new lows while the RSI makes higher lows with each swing in the stock price. Investors may conclude that the lower lows in the stock price are losing their downward momentum and a trend reversal may soon follow.
Divergence is one of the common uses of many technical indicators, primarily the oscillators.

WMA combined with Barcolor VTRENDThis script centers around a weighted moving average band, to show price action when its in a bull or bear trend.
Included for trend purposes are two volume weighted moving averages, a 99 and 500 length respectively.
Above the weighted moving average band, barcolor is green and below it is red.
We also have key open levels, the daily, weekly, monthly and yearly. The candle colors are different when it closes above or below the daily open, purple for above and maroon for below. I have also have taken the liberty of putting crosses on chart for when this happens too, as to help identify the direction of price action more easily.
I recommend using the 1hr timeframe for most trades, the open and close crosses can be noisy at low timeframes, 15 - 30 minutes is good enough for low timeframe scalping.
Viral Force IndexBased on the Elder Force Index (EFI) indicator, the Viral Force Index (VFI) attempts to normalize the original indicator by plotting EFI on the interval ]-100, 100 [.
VFI comes with a bar coloring feature, allowing users to get an idea of the current value of the indicator without having to look away from the chart.
Additionally, the linear regression line provides a simple way to filter out the noise with little to no additional 'lag'.

[Mad]Trend BarcolorsTrend colors based on PSA and selectable Ma's.
classic PSAR trend mixed with 2 selectable MA's switching between Bullish Neutral Baerish
the switching logic is in colorlogic()
usage: colorswitch maybe one entry.
if you want to trade with a trend example: green yellow, green << entry (long)
if you want to trade against a trend example: green yellow red (entry short)
This is not an indicator that works on its own, it is a helper in a decision, never a single instrument is possible.

Smart ColorThis script color bars to filter the noise.
If the bar color is green, the price is either ranging or going up so we considere that the momentum is for longs
If the bar color is red, the price is either ranging or going down so we considere that the momentum is for shorts
I use this indicator in 3 ways.
In confirmation with other indicators to get early in a trade. Let's say I see a short divergence and i want to enter only when the momentum is going down. So i will wait that bar color pass to red to enter in a position.
I can also use this indicator alone, but if i do so, since i am more a counter trend trader, i will first wait a lower low with a nice % of variation for the past series of the same color, so when it will change color, there is a higher chance that the price retrace more % and my profit target have more chance to be hit.
And the last way I use this indicator is to exit a position at a "better price". In profit : Let's say i am long and i am fine with the profit i have.Then I decide to put my profit target 0.5% above the actual price. But if the bar color change to red, i will close my trade even if my target is not hit. In loss : Let's say i have a trade with negative PNL and the bar color just changed in my direction. So at the place of taking a loss right now, i will wait the potential little upward, and whenever the barcolor will change again against me, I will close it here. It is just a little optimisation. But the sum of all little optimisation is decent
How to parameter this script?
To parameter it you need to understand how it works. If you have too many variation of colors. It means there is too much noise.
There is an input that you can change to filter the level of noise you want to filter. The defval = 5, step = 1 ,minval = 1, maxval =100.
So from defval, up it up to a level in which noise is filtered ; a level in which candle succession of the same color does a nice % variation.
+ Awesome OscillatorHi again. I have another indicator that I think is pretty neat.
I had the idea of creating an Awesome Oscillator for my Ultimate MA, just to see what kind of signals it might produce. If you're not familiar with my UMA you should go take a look at it, but essentially it is just an average of eight different length MAs, and if you're not familiar with the Awesome Oscillator, it is simply a comparison of the gap between two different moving averages (traditionally a 5 and 34 SMA) plotted as a histogram below the price chart. The two UMAs I was comparing in this version of the AO were the Hull and Simple. It looked okay, but I thought due to the nature of the movements of these MAs, that it was necessary to add something to this indicator in order to validate its creation and make it truly useful
I came to the idea of simply comparing the closing price of the asset on the chart to both the Awesome Oscillator moving averages. What this effectively does is gives you a representation of the moving averages on the chart (assuming you are using those same MAs) as an oscillator below the chart, enabling you to remove the moving averages from your price chart (obviously if you so choose). For me, I like this because fewer things on the chart makes it easier for me to see the price action and structure of the market clearly, or add something like a tWAP or two.
So, like, "how exactly would I use this indicator?"" you're probably asking.
First off: the Awesome Oscillator. By default it is a faintly shaded area, and is the least obvious part of the indicator.
Second: the plotted line. This is what I call the baseline (if you're familiar with NNFX, then you know what this is). It's basically your bias moving average (this means it defines, based on its lookback or length, whether momentum is bullish, bearish or ranging). In the case of the oscillator though, the ZERO line represents the baseline, and the oscillating line represents price in relation to it. If the line is above the zero line then price is above the moving average, and vice versa if it's below. The farther from the center line the baseline price is the greater the volatility,
Third: the histogram. This is the faster moving average, and same rules apply to it as your baseline. You can think of your fast moving average as a trade entry trigger, or an exit. It shows more immediate momentum shifts.
What's interesting about the relationships of all three of these things is that you don't actually NEED all three displayed. Because the Awesome Oscillator is a relation of your two moving averages, and the baseline and histogram are representational of the price relative to those two moving averages, you will notice that when the histogram (fast MA) flips up or down is the same exact time that the baseline price dips into the AO. The AO is effectively a moving average on that. So you can run this with just the AO and Baseline, or just the Baseline and fast MA histogram. To get started, I might recommend keeping your moving averages that you use on the chart just so you can see how this indicator works.
Both the fast MA and Baseline will show nice divergences (divergence indicator is added if you want to use it). And I've added Donchian Channels as upper and lower bounds that act neatly as support or resistance (especially effective if you're using my UMA with Bollinger Bands, or Magic Carpet Bands).
I've also done the usual colored candles thing, which gives you another great reason to get the moving averages off your chart. There are of course alerts for conditions that one might need to be alerted to as well.
Below are some images of different ways you might set these up using the default moving average/baseline settings. In all of these I've left the moving averages on the price chart (with the addition of a 233 SMA) so you can see the relationship between the indicators.
Right here is the indicator set up with just the awesome oscillator and baseline price. Gives a cleaner overall look. You can see that every time the baseline crosses the awesome oscillator is when price crosses the 8 SMA. Candle colors are based on if candle closes above baseline or below.
This is the indicator set up without the awesome oscillator. Here you can see candle closes over the 8 SMA (fast moving average) are shown by the histogram. Candle coloring is still the same as the above image.
This image looks identical to the first, except that the candle coloring is different. This time it is based on the 8 SMA (same as the baseline entering the awesome oscillator).
And the final example image. This one depicts the awesome oscillator and the fast moving average histogram. Candle coloring is based on the awesome oscillator. This can be a great way to visualize momentum because the awesome oscillator is depicting the crossing of the moving averages. A lot of people poo-poo moving average crosses, but I'd say they're wrong. Well, they're right and wrong. Depends on the MAs you're using. The power in moving average crosses is in their ability to show bullish or bearish momentum (or ranging behavior if they continually cross over each other). If you're using slow moving averages, then crosses are often very late (hence so many people who don't know saying, "but moving average crosses are too laggy". Here you might try changing these and having the baseline be faster than the UMA, and actually plot on chart the UMA (or some other moving average). These are just some thoughts.
Anyway, I hope this indicator proves useful to you all. I think for anyone looking to look at price action a bit more, but is used to using moving averages, this could be a really useful indicator. Most oscillating indicators (if not all) are built around moving averages, but they're never explained in such a way as I'm explaining how this one works (I don't think). I think knowing this could help many traders come to a deeper understanding of what the indicator they're using is actually doing.
+ %UMAIf you are familiar with the %B for use with Bollinger Bands, then you will understand this indicator immediately.
Designed for use with my +UMA moving average, this works in exactly the same way, with a few differences.
First off, as you can choose on which type of moving average the calculations are made, so too you will want to match this up with the one you are using. That of course goes for the standard deviation as well (just like you would with Bollinger Bands and %B). Here, because the +UMA uses highs and lows to create a sort of moving average channel, and then also to create the bands, I've opted to set the inner part of the bands as the extreme edge that the %UMA equates with the upper and lower lines.
I've added a moving average, donchian channels, and auto-plotted divergences as well, if you like. Typical color related stuff that I do. Alerts for everything.
Hope you like it!
The above image is comparing two of the same indicator, but based on different moving averages, and how it might plot divergences differently between the two.
Standard Deviation Candles (With Emoji)In crypto, significant price moves can be a sign of continuation or reversal. This script measures if price move is greater than a certain number of standard deviations vs. previous periods, then alters bar colours and/or prints an emoji signal.
+ Klinger OscillatorThis is a version of Stephen J. Klinger's, Klinger Oscillator (sometimes called Klinger Volume Oscillator). I've changed virtually nothing about the indicator itself, but added some lookback inputs for the EMAs the oscillator is derived from (traditionally 34 and 55), and added a few other things, as is my wont.
But what is the Klinger Oscillator? Essentially, the calculation looks at the high, low, and close of the current period, and compares that to the previous period's. If it is greater, it adds volume, and if it is less, it subtracts volume. It then takes an EMA of two different lookback periods of that calculation and subtracts one from the other. That's your oscillator. There is then made a signal line of the oscillator that a trader can use, in combination with the zero line, for taking trades. Investopedia has a good article on it, so if you're looking for more specifics, check there.
What I've done is add a selection of different moving averages that you may choose for the signal line. Usually it's a 13 period EMA, and that comes default, but here you could use an ALMA or HMA, or modular filter, etc. Find something that works for your style/algorithm.
Of course there are all the usual additions of mine with the various ways of coloring the indicator and candles, adjustable Donchian Bands, and alerts. A new addition that I've just added to all my indicators (oscillators, anyway) are divergences. This is more or less just a copy and paste of the divergence indicator available in TradingView. In this case you can set it to plot divergences off either the Klinger or the signal line. Depending on which one you choose you may have to adjust pivot lookbacks, and lookback range. I've kept the settings default from the RSI TradingView version.
Donchian RSI BandsThis little mashup of mine is called the Donchian RSI Bands. It consists of two RSI's, a Donchian Channel, & Bollinger bands, which can all be turned on or off depending on your preferences.
The main RSI is set to the 7 length and the second RSI is set to the default 14 length. When used together, they form an RSI cloud.
The Bollinger Bands are set to the 35 length and use two sets of adjustable deviations to form the bands. The inner band is set to 0.25 deviation and the outside is set to 0.5. Generally, the Bollinger Bands deviation is set to 2 but for this idea, when the RSI is inside the Bollinger Bands, there's a higher possibility of chop. The stronger Bullish or Bearish trend will be when the main RSI is trending above or below the Bollinger Bands.
The RSI color is Bullish when the RSI is above the Upper Bollinger Band, Neutral when the RSI is inside the Bands, and Bearish when the RSI is below the lower Bollinger Band. The wider you adjust the Outer Band Deviation, the wider the Neutral zone will be. The width of the Bollinger Band Basis can also be adjusted so you could widen it all the way out to the Bands which will form a fully shaded channel to avoid trading when the RSI is trending inside.
The Donchian Channel is set to 70, which 2x the Bollinger Band length. I use it for longer term trends and possible trend reversals.
There are 3 options for Barcoloring:
RSI Bollinger Bands
RSI Cloud
& when the RSI is above/below the Donchian Channel Basis
+ Balance of PowerThe Balance of Power is an indicator that measures the strength of buyers versus that of sellers in the market, and needs to be smoothed by a moving average to be of much practical use (come to think of it, most indicators are smoothed by a moving average; this is why the RSI lookback mostly commonly used is 14, and not 1, but I digress...). I suppose it is possible to use it without smoothing, but that would be very difficult I think.
The oscillator pivots around a center line, and as with most indicators like this, above 0 is generally considered bullish in a bullish trend, and vice versa in a downtrend.
It can be good for spotting divergences (moreso with smaller lookback periods than I like).
To wit, you might be wondering why I have the default lookback period set at such a large number. My only answer I can give is that I prefer it that way.
The indicator is quite choppy, even when smoothed. The long period helps me to make beter sense of the data (smooth it with a Hull or Jurik MA and you get a different story, though).
In my version of this indicator I provide a pretty broad selection of moving averages with which one may choose to smooth out the BOP, as well as an EMA provided to use as a sort of signal line for trade entries and/or exits, taking partial profits, scaling into a position, etc.
I've also added the option for a second BOP, which is on by default. I think you might find the results interesting by pairing differently smoothed BOPs together.
Of course, you don't have to use both. In the case of the default settings you might look at the EMA-BOP crossing the JMA-BOP as an opportunity to look into exiting or entering trades.
Candle coloring is, as usual, included. I'd say I kind of overdid it here, but that seems to be my style. I just couldn't deal with the fact that with the indicator set to cumulative modes there is no zero line, therefor the color of the indicator plot and the candle coloring would not match the color swatches for bullish/bearish colors. So, there are selections for cumulative indicator/candle colors, and standard indicator/candle colors. Donchian Channels obviously doesn't matter because the colors of things are based on the channel only.
I've added Donchian channel bands (which I've begun adding to many of my indicators), and all necessary alerts as well.
The Donchian Channels can be a really effective tool for entering and exiting trades. I haven't mentioned it in my other indicators that have it, so I will here:
The outermost edge of the band is that which references the indicator for where it is plotted, and the inner channel is sort of dragged along, creating the band
It's a simple mathematical calculation that TradingView actually provided themselves in their manual for pinescript.
When the BOP (or any other indicator using this) enters the band and then exits that could be an indication that price may be reversing, this the bands themselves act, or rather, show a current area of support/resistance for the BOP plot.
One thing that I did with it that they did not, is give the user the ability to change the width of the band. It can only go so narrow, obviously, but anywhere from three (quite wide) to eight is probably sufficient.
I've also provided the option of plotting the BOP as a cumulative line (like OBV), making it no longer an indicator which oscillates around a central pivot.
Because the balance of power is plotted as an accumulation, you may actually want to set the lookback to 1 (it works because it's not an oscillator then).
If you wish to smooth the noise, I suspect a low number would be acceptable here, but it's not necessary.
Oh, and lastly (almost forgot, as this was a late addition), I've added options for the BOPs calculated with volume as well. Gives a different bit of a perspective on the market, versus the traditional version which does not include volume. Screenshots below.
The above image is the balance of power calculated with volume. You can see the obvious difference versus the traditional indicator, where price is in a downtrend and you'd want to sell the orange.
Cumulative version. Looks a lot like OBV.

⚠ Important: Before going into details of this script, in order to best use this indicator it is VERY VERY important to make some changes to the chart settings as mentioned below.
• REMOVE CANDLE BORDERS from Symbol settings
• CHANGE WICK COLOR to white/black/gray based on the chart theme you use, from Symbol settings
Make sure you have these settings done.
Detail about this indicator
1. This indicator is used to identify the trend based on the momentum of the counter selected.
2. This indicator is calculated differently for indices NSE:NIFTY and NSE:BANKNIFTY. As I take high weightage stock under these indices to get overall indices momentum.
3. I have used the rate of change and RSI of it to calculate momentum.
4. I would typically use this indicator to see momentum on the Monthly and Weekly first and daily timeframe to get proper entry.
5. Also please try to stay in the long position more than the short position as we all know that, the imminent nature of the market is to go upward only.
6. Please try to keep base inputs as defaults, though it allows you to change input parameters like changing the length of momentum indicator or bar color options. Below is the description of each input
• Smoothen: It changes source from CLOSE to OHLC4.
• Signal Length: It's the length(no of candles) for which the momentum is calculated. Like for RSI the default period/length is 14 or for Moving Average indicator default period/length is 9, I simply use 20 as the default length
• Timeframe: If you want to calculate momentum based on the momentum of different time frames.
• Change bar Color: Use the toggle to change the color of the bar. You can uncheck it so that no bar color is changed if you need so
• Set Bar Color Dynamically: With this even though the oscillator is in opposite direction to the trend it takes the candle close into consideration and sets bar color accordingly.
Always respect RISKS and follow stop loss.
Let's understand how to take a position using this indicator
• Long position:-
• If the latest candle color is GREEN and its preceding candle color is RED, then go long in the counter with the strict stop loss(SL) 1% below the preceding RED colored candle.
• Once you are in a long position, trail stop loss(SL) below each red candle you see on the chart.
• Exit strictly if initial SL or trailing SL is hit. And re-create long positions once you see the next green candle.
• Short Position:-
• If the latest candle color is RED and its preceding candle color is GREEN, then go short IF RED COLORED CANDLE LOW IS TAKEN OUT. Exit short once you see a green colored candle.
• Exit strictly if you see a GREEN-colored candle and create a long position.

+ REX OscillatorSo, what is the REX oscillator, you might be asking yourself.
"The Rex oscillator is an indicator that measures market behavior based on the relationship of the close to the open, high and low values of the same bar. A big difference between the high and close on a bar indicates weakness, and wide disparity between the low and close indicates strength. The difference between open and close also indicates market performance."
The True Value of a Bar (TVB) gives an indication of how healthy the market is. A negative close and a positive TVB (or vice versa) is an indication of the market building strength on the opposing side of the trend. The Rex oscillator is a moving average of the TVB value with the specified period.
I first came across this watching one of many No Nonsense Forex videos. Mostly, from comments I've read, it is used as an exit indicator for people who trade with a system similar or identical to the one VP espouses in his NNFX blog. I think it's perfectly apt to use as an entry indicator as well, or even as both, perhaps, depending on the moving average you chose to apply to the TVB.
There are a few other versions of this on tradingview, but I thought I'd make an updated version. Added Donchian Channels because I like the idea of a dynamic sort of overbought/sold area. I left out the basis because the indicator pivots around a center line, and has a signal line as well. A basis line just seemed like too much, and would likely not be very useful.
The additional usual things that I incorporate into my indicators are included here: optional candle coloring, alerts, and probably a too large selection of moving averages.
Credit to Nemozny for the FRAMA calculation. I may add that to other indicators I have.
