Deadband Hysteresis Supertrend [BackQuant]Deadband Hysteresis Supertrend
A two-stage trend tool that first filters price with a deadband baseline, then runs a Supertrend around that baseline with optional flip hysteresis and ATR-based adverse exits.
What this is
A hybrid of two ideas:
Deadband Hysteresis Baseline that only advances when price pulls far enough from the baseline to matter. This suppresses micro noise and gives you a stable centerline.
Supertrend bands wrapped around that baseline instead of raw price. Flips are further gated by an extra margin so side changes are more deliberate.
The goal is fewer whipsaws in chop and clearer regime identification during trends.
How it works (high level)
Deadband step — compute a per-bar “deadband” size from one of four modes: ATR, Percent of price, Ticks, or Points. If price deviates from the baseline by more than this amount, move the baseline forward by a fraction of the excess. If not, hold the line.
Centered Supertrend — build upper and lower bands around the baseline using ATR and a user factor. Track the usual trailing logic that tightens a band while price moves in its favor.
Flip hysteresis — require price to exceed the active band by an extra flip offset × ATR before switching sides. This adds stickiness at the boundary.
Adverse exit — once a side is taken, trigger an exit if price moves against the entry by K × ATR .
If you would like to check out the filter by itself:
What it plots
DBHF baseline (optional) as a smooth centerline.
DBHF Supertrend as the active trailing band.
Candle coloring by trend side for quick read.
Signal markers 𝕃 and 𝕊 at flips plus ✖ on adverse exits.
Inputs that matter
Price Source — series being filtered. Close is typical. HL2 or HLC3 can be steadier.
Deadband mode — ATR, Percent, Ticks, or Points. This defines the “it’s big enough to matter” zone.
ATR Length / Mult (DBHF) — only used when mode = ATR. Larger values widen the do-nothing zone.
Percent / Ticks / Points — alternatives to ATR; pick what fits your market’s convention.
Enter Mult — scales the deadband you must clear before the baseline moves. Increase to filter more noise.
Response — fraction of the excess applied to baseline movement. Higher responds faster; lower is smoother.
Supertrend ATR Period & Factor — traditional band size controls; higher factor widens and flips less often.
Flip Offset ATR — extra ATR buffer required to flip. Useful in choppy regimes.
Adverse Stop K·ATR — per-trade danger brake that forces an exit if price moves K×ATR against entry.
UI — toggle baseline, supertrend, signals, and bar painting; choose long and short colors.
How to read it
Green regime — candles painted long and the Supertrend running below price. Pullbacks toward the baseline that fail to breach the opposite band often resume higher.
Red regime — candles painted short and the Supertrend running above price. Rallies that cannot reclaim the band may roll over.
Frequent side swaps — reduce sensitivity by increasing Enter Mult, using ATR mode, raising the Supertrend factor, or adding Flip Offset ATR.
Use cases
Bias filter — allow entries only in the direction of the current side. Use your preferred triggers inside that bias.
Trailing logic — treat the active band as a dynamic stop. If the side flips or an adverse K·ATR exit prints, reduce or close exposure.
Regime map — on higher timeframes, the combination baseline + band produces a clean up vs down template for allocation decisions.
Tuning guidance
Fast markets — ATR deadband, modest Enter Mult (0.8–1.2), response 0.2–0.35, Supertrend factor 1.7–2.2, small Flip Offset (0.2–0.5 ATR).
Choppy ranges — widen deadband or raise Enter Mult, lower response, and add more Flip Offset so flips require stronger evidence.
Slow trends — longer ATR periods and higher Supertrend factor to keep you on side longer; use a conservative adverse K.
Included alerts
DBHF ST Long — side flips to long.
DBHF ST Short — side flips to short.
Adverse Exit Long / Short — K·ATR stop triggers against the current side.
Strengths
Deadbanded baseline reduces micro whipsaws before Supertrend logic even begins.
Flip hysteresis adds a second layer of confirmation at the boundary.
Optional adverse ATR stop provides a uniform risk cut across assets and regimes.
Clear visuals and minimal parameters to adjust for symbol behavior.
Putting it together
Think of this tool as two decisions layered into one view. The deadband baseline answers “does this move even count,” then the Supertrend wrapped around that baseline answers “if it counts, which side should I be on and where do I flip.” When both parts agree you tend to stay on the correct side of a trend for longer, and when they disagree you get an early warning that conditions are changing.
When the baseline bends and price cannot reclaim the opposite band , momentum is usually continuing. Pullbacks into the baseline that stall before the far band often resolve in trend.
When the baseline flattens and the bands compress , expect indecision. Use the Flip Offset ATR to avoid reacting to the first feint. Wait for a clean band breach with follow through.
When an adverse K·ATR exit prints while the side has not flipped , treat it as a risk event rather than a full regime change. Many users cut size, re-enter only if the side reasserts, and let the next flip confirm a new trend.
Final thoughts
Deadband Hysteresis Supertrend is best read as a regime lens. The baseline defines your tolerance for noise, the bands define your trailing structure, and the flip offset plus adverse ATR stop define how forgiving or strict you want to be at the boundary. On strong trends it helps you hold through shallow shakeouts. In choppy conditions it encourages patience until price does something meaningful. Start with settings that reflect the cadence of your market, observe how often flips occur, then nudge the deadband and flip offset until the tool spends most of its time describing the move you care about rather than the noise in between.

Gann Fan Strategy [KedarArc Quant]Description
A single-concept, rule-based strategy that trades around a programmatic Gann Fan.
It anchors to a swing (or a manual point), builds 1×1 and related fan lines numerically, and triggers entries when price interacts with the 1×1 (breakout or bounce). Management is done entirely with the fan structure (next/previous line) plus optional ATR trailing.
What TV indicators are used
* Pivots: `ta.pivothigh/ta.pivotlow` to confirm swing highs/lows for anchor selection.
* ATR: `ta.atr` only to scale the 1×1 slope (optional) and for an optional trailing stop.
* EMA: `ta.ema` as a trend filter (e.g., only long above the EMA, short below).
No RSI/MACD/Stoch/Heikin/etc. The logic is one coherent framework: Gann price–time geometry, with ATR as a scale and EMA as a risk filter.
How it works
1. Anchor
* Auto: chooses the most recent *confirmed* pivot (you control Left/Right).
* Manual: set a price and bar index and the fan will hold that point (no re-anchoring).
* Optional Re-anchor when a newer pivot confirms.
2. 1×1 Slope (numeric, not cosmetic)
* ATR mode: `1×1 = ATR(Length) × Multiplier` (adapts to volatility).
* Fixed mode: `ticks per bar` (constant slope).
Because slope is numeric, it doesn’t change with chart zoom, unlike the drawing tool.
3. Fan Lines
Builds classic ratios around the 1×1: 1/8, 1/4, 1/3, 1/2, 1/1, 2/1, 3/1, 4/1, 8/1.
4. Signals
* Breakout: cross of price over/under the 1×1 in the EMA-aligned direction.
* Bounce (optional): touch + reversal across the 1×1 to reduce whipsaw.
5. Exits & Risk
* Take-profit at the next fan line; Stop at the previous fan line.
* If a level is missing (right after re-anchor), a fallback Risk-Reward (RR) is used.
* Optional ATR trailing stop.
Why this is unique
* True numeric fan: The 1×1 slope is calculated from ATR or fixed ticks—not from screen geometry—so it is scale-invariant and reproducible across users/timeframes.
* Deterministic anchor logic: Uses confirmed pivots (with your L/R settings). No look-ahead; anchors update only when the right bars complete.
* Fan-native trade management: Both entries and exits come from the fan structure itself (with a minimal ATR/EMA assist), keeping the method pure.
* Two entry archetypes: Breakout for momentum days; Bounce for range days—switchable without changing the core model.
* Manual mode: Lock a session’s bias by anchoring to a chosen swing (e.g., day’s first major low/high) and keep the fan constant all day.
Inputs (quick guide)
* Auto Anchor (Left/Right): pivot sensitivity. Higher values = fewer, stronger anchors.
* Re-anchor: refresh to newer pivots as they confirm.
* Manual Anchor Price / Bar Index: fixes the fan (turn Auto off).
* Scale 1×1 by ATR: on = adaptive; off = use ticks per bar.
* ATR Length / ATR Multiplier: controls adaptive slope; start around 14 / 0.25–0.35.
* Ticks per bar: exact fixed slope (match a hand-drawn fan by computing slope ÷ mintick).
* EMA Trend Filter: e.g., 50–100; trades only in EMA direction.
* Use Bounce: require touch + reverse across 1×1 (helps in chop).
* TP/SL at fan lines; Fallback RR for missing levels; ATR Trailing Stop optional.
* Transparency/Plot EMA: visual preferences.
Tips
* Range days: larger pivots (L/R 8–12), Bounce ON, ATR Multiplier \~0.30–0.40, EMA 100.
* Trend days: L/R 5–6, Breakout, Multiplier \~0.20–0.30, EMA 50, ATR trail 1.0–1.5.
* Match the TV Gann Fan drawing: turn ATR scale OFF, set ticks per bar = `(Δprice between anchor and 1×1 target) / (bars) / mintick`.
Repainting & testing notes
* Pivots require Right bars to confirm; anchors are set after confirmation (no look-ahead).
* Signals use the current bar close with TradingView strategy mechanics; real-time vs. bar-close can differ slightly, as with any strategy.
* Re-anchoring legitimately moves the structure when new pivots confirm—by design.

2ATR / Close %Certainly. Here is the English version of the indicator description you requested.
---
### **2ATR Stop-Loss Ratio**
This indicator provides a straightforward calculation of **what percentage a 2ATR (Average True Range) move represents relative to the current price**. It's a specialized tool designed to help traders set dynamic, volatility-based stop-loss levels.
---
### **Purpose of the Indicator**
Many traders use a **2ATR** as their standard for setting a stop-loss, believing it's a good measure of a stock's typical movement. However, it can be difficult to quickly determine the exact percentage a 2ATR drop represents from the current price. This indicator solves that problem by giving you a clear, single number that shows the **anticipated percentage loss before you even enter a position**.
---
### **How It Works**
The indicator is calculated using a simple formula:
**(2 * ATR(20) / Current Price) * 100**
* `ATR(20)`: The Average True Range over the last 20 periods. This period can be customized in the indicator's settings.
* `Current Price`: The closing price at the time of calculation.
---
### **How to Use It**
* **Assess Risk**: A higher number on the indicator means greater volatility, indicating a wider stop-loss range.
* **Set a Stop-Loss**: If the indicator shows **3%**, it means a 2ATR move is roughly a 3% change from the current price. This gives you a clear understanding of the potential loss.
* **Adjust Position Size**: If the potential percentage loss is larger than you're comfortable with, you can use this information to reduce your position size, effectively managing your risk.
This tool is especially useful for trading highly volatile stocks, as it helps you establish a clear and effective risk management strategy.
NY Anchored VWAP and Auto SMANY Anchored VWAP and Auto SMA
This script is a versatile trading indicator for the TradingView platform that combines two powerful components: a New York-anchored Volume-Weighted Average Price (VWAP) and a dynamic Simple Moving Average (SMA). Designed for traders who utilize VWAP for intraday trend analysis, this tool provides a clear visual representation of average price and volatility-adjusted moving averages, generating automated alerts for key crossover signals.
Indicator Components
1. NY Anchored VWAP
The VWAP is a crucial tool that represents the average price of a security adjusted for volume. This version is "anchored" to the start of the New York trading session, resetting at the beginning of each new session. This provides a clean, session-specific anchor point to gauge market sentiment and trend. The VWAP line changes color to reflect its slope:
Green: When the VWAP is trending upwards, indicating a bullish bias.
Red: When the VWAP is trending downwards, indicating a bearish bias.
2. Auto SMA
The Auto SMA is a moving average with a unique twist: its lookback period is not fixed. Instead, it dynamically adjusts based on market volatility. The script measures volatility using the Average True Range (ATR) and a Z-Score calculation.
When volatility is expanding, the SMA's length shortens, making it more sensitive to recent price changes.
When volatility is contracting, the SMA's length lengthens, smoothing out the price action to filter out noise.
This adaptive approach allows the SMA to react appropriately to different market conditions.
Suggested Trading Strategy
This indicator is particularly effective when used on a one-minute chart for identifying high-probability trade entries. The core of the strategy is to trade the crossover between the VWAP and the Auto SMA, with confirmation from a candle close.
The strategy works best when the entry signal aligns with the overall bias of the higher timeframe market structure. For example, if the daily or 4-hour chart is in an uptrend, you would look for bullish signals on the one-minute chart.
Bullish Entry Signal: A potential entry is signaled when the VWAP crosses above the Auto SMA, and is confirmed when the one-minute candle closes above both the VWAP and the SMA. This indicates a potential continuation of the bullish momentum.
Bearish Entry Signal: A potential entry is signaled when the VWAP crosses below the Auto SMA, and is confirmed when the one-minute candle closes below both the VWAP and the SMA. This indicates a potential continuation of the bearish momentum.
The built-in alerts for these crossovers allow you to receive notifications without having to constantly monitor the charts, ensuring you don't miss a potential setup.
Sentinel 5 — OHL daybreak signals [KedArc Quant]Overview
Sentinel 5 plots the first-bar high/low of each trading session and gives clean, rules-based signals in two ways:
1) OHL Setups at the close of the first bar (Open equals/near High for potential short; Open equals/near Low for potential long).
2) Breakout Signals later in the session when price breaks the first-bar High/Low, with optional body/penetration filters.
Basic workflow
1. Wait for the first session bar to finish.
*If O≈H (optionally by proximity) → short setup. •
*If O≈L → long setup. • If neither happens, optionally allow later breakouts.
2. Optional: Act only on breakouts that penetrate a minimum % of that bar’s range/body.
3. Skip the day automatically if the first bar is abnormally large (marubozu-like / extreme ATR / outsized vs yesterday).
Signals & Markers
Markers on the chart:
▲ O=L (exact) / O near L (proximity) – long setup at first-bar close.
▼ O=H (exact) / O near H (proximity) – short setup at first-bar close.
▲ Breakout Long – later bar breaks above first-bar High meeting your penetration rule.
▼ Breakout Short – later bar breaks below first-bar Low meeting your penetration rule.
Advanced Range Analyzer ProAdvanced Range Analyzer Pro – Adaptive Range Detection & Breakout Forecasting
Overview
Advanced Range Analyzer Pro is a comprehensive trading tool designed to help traders identify consolidations, evaluate their strength, and forecast potential breakout direction. By combining volatility-adjusted thresholds, volume distribution analysis, and historical breakout behavior, the indicator builds an adaptive framework for navigating sideways price action. Instead of treating ranges as noise, this system transforms them into opportunities for mean reversion or breakout trading.
How It Works
The indicator continuously scans price action to identify active range environments. Ranges are defined by volatility compression, repeated boundary interactions, and clustering of volume near equilibrium. Once detected, the indicator assigns a strength score (0–100), which quantifies how well-defined and compressed the consolidation is.
Breakout probabilities are then calculated by factoring in:
Relative time spent near the upper vs. lower range boundaries
Historical breakout tendencies for similar structures
Volume distribution inside the range
Momentum alignment using auxiliary filters (RSI/MACD)
This creates a live probability forecast that updates as price evolves. The tool also supports range memory, allowing traders to analyze the last completed range after a breakout has occurred. A dynamic strength meter is displayed directly above each consolidation range, providing real-time insight into range compression and breakout potential.
Signals and Breakouts
Advanced Range Analyzer Pro includes a structured set of visual tools to highlight actionable conditions:
Range Zones – Gradient-filled boxes highlight active consolidations.
Strength Meter – A live score displayed in the dashboard quantifies compression.
Breakout Labels – Probability percentages show bias toward bullish or bearish continuation.
Breakout Highlights – When a breakout occurs, the range is marked with directional confirmation.
Dashboard Table – Displays current status, strength, live/last range mode, and probabilities.
These elements update in real time, ensuring that traders always see the current state of consolidation and breakout risk.
Interpretation
Range Strength : High scores (70–100) indicate strong consolidations likely to resolve explosively, while low scores suggest weak or choppy ranges prone to false signals.
Breakout Probability : Directional bias greater than 60% suggests meaningful breakout pressure. Equal probabilities indicate balanced compression, favoring mean-reversion strategies.
Market Context : Ranges aligned with higher timeframe trends often resolve in the dominant direction, while counter-trend ranges may lead to reversals or liquidity sweeps.
Volatility Insight : Tight ranges with low ATR imply imminent expansion; wide ranges signal extended consolidation or distribution phases.
Strategy Integration
Advanced Range Analyzer Pro can be applied across multiple trading styles:
Breakout Trading : Enter on probability shifts above 60% with confirmation of volume or momentum.
Mean Reversion : Trade inside ranges with high strength scores by fading boundaries and targeting equilibrium.
Trend Continuation : Focus on ranges that form mid-trend, anticipating continuation after consolidation.
Liquidity Sweeps : Use failed breakouts at boundaries to capture reversals.
Multi-Timeframe : Apply on higher timeframes to frame market context, then execute on lower timeframes.
Advanced Techniques
Combine with volume profiles to identify areas of institutional positioning within ranges.
Track sequences of strong consolidations for trend development or exhaustion signals.
Use breakout probability shifts in conjunction with order flow or momentum indicators to refine entries.
Monitor expanding/contracting range widths to anticipate volatility cycles.
Custom parameters allow fine-tuning sensitivity for different assets (crypto, forex, equities) and trading styles (scalping, intraday, swing).
Inputs and Customization
Range Detection Sensitivity : Controls how strictly ranges are defined.
Strength Score Settings : Adjust weighting of compression, volume, and breakout memory.
Probability Forecasting : Enable/disable directional bias and thresholds.
Gradient & Fill Options : Customize range visualization colors and opacity.
Dashboard Display : Toggle live vs last range, info table size, and position.
Breakout Highlighting : Choose border/zone emphasis on breakout events.
Why Use Advanced Range Analyzer Pro
This indicator provides a data-driven approach to trading consolidation phases, one of the most common yet underutilized market states. By quantifying range strength, mapping probability forecasts, and visually presenting risk zones, it transforms uncertainty into clarity.
Whether you’re trading breakouts, fading ranges, or mapping higher timeframe context, Advanced Range Analyzer Pro delivers a structured, adaptive framework that integrates seamlessly into multiple strategies.

Mutanabby_AI | ATR+ | Trend-Following StrategyThis document presents the Mutanabby_AI | ATR+ Pine Script strategy, a systematic approach designed for trend identification and risk-managed position entry in financial markets. The strategy is engineered for long-only positions and integrates volatility-adjusted components to enhance signal robustness and trade management.
Strategic Design and Methodological Basis
The Mutanabby_AI | ATR+ strategy is constructed upon a foundation of established technical analysis principles, with a focus on objective signal generation and realistic trade execution.
Heikin Ashi for Trend Filtering: The core price data is processed via Heikin Ashi (HA) methodology to mitigate transient market noise and accentuate underlying trend direction. The script offers three distinct HA calculation modes, allowing for comparative analysis and validation:
Manual Calculation: Provides a transparent and deterministic computation of HA values.
ticker.heikinashi(): Utilizes TradingView's built-in function, employing confirmed historical bars to prevent repainting artifacts.
Regular Candles: Allows for direct comparison with standard OHLC price action.
This multi-methodological approach to trend smoothing is critical for robust signal generation.
Adaptive ATR Trailing Stop: A key component is the Average True Range (ATR)-based trailing stop. ATR serves as a dynamic measure of market volatility. The strategy incorporates user-defined parameters (
Key Value and ATR Period) to calibrate the sensitivity of this trailing stop, enabling adaptation to varying market volatility regimes. This mechanism is designed to provide a dynamic exit point, preserving capital and locking in gains as a trend progresses.
EMA Crossover for Signal Generation: Entry and exit signals are derived from the interaction between the Heikin Ashi derived price source and an Exponential Moving Average (EMA). A crossover event between these two components is utilized to objectively identify shifts in momentum, signaling potential long entry or exit points.
Rigorous Stop Loss Implementation: A critical feature for risk mitigation, the strategy includes an optional stop loss. This stop loss can be configured as a percentage or fixed point deviation from the entry price. Importantly, stop loss execution is based on real market prices, not the synthetic Heikin Ashi values. This design choice ensures that risk management is grounded in actual market liquidity and price levels, providing a more accurate representation of potential drawdowns during backtesting and live operation.
Backtesting Protocol: The strategy is configured for realistic backtesting, employing fill_orders_on_standard_ohlc=true to simulate order execution at standard OHLC prices. A configurable Date Filter is included to define specific historical periods for performance evaluation.
Data Visualization and Metrics: The script provides on-chart visual overlays for buy/sell signals, the ATR trailing stop, and the stop loss level. An integrated information table displays real-time strategy parameters, current position status, trend direction, and key price levels, facilitating immediate quantitative assessment.
Applicability
The Mutanabby_AI | ATR+ strategy is particularly suited for:
Cryptocurrency Markets: The inherent volatility of assets such as #Bitcoin and #Ethereum makes the ATR-based trailing stop a relevant tool for dynamic risk management.
Systematic Trend Following: Individuals employing systematic methodologies for trend capture will find the objective signal generation and rule-based execution aligned with their approach.
Pine Script Developers and Quants: The transparent code structure and emphasis on realistic backtesting provide a valuable framework for further analysis, modification, and integration into broader quantitative models.
Automated Trading Systems: The clear, deterministic entry and exit conditions facilitate integration into automated trading environments.
Implementation and Evaluation
To evaluate the Mutanabby_AI | ATR+ strategy, apply the script to your chosen chart on TradingView. Adjust the input parameters (Key Value, ATR Period, Heikin Ashi Method, Stop Loss Settings) to observe performance across various asset classes and timeframes. Comprehensive backtesting is recommended to assess the strategy's historical performance characteristics, including profitability, drawdown, and risk-adjusted returns.

Relative Volatility Mass [SciQua]The ⚖️ Relative Volatility Mass (RVM) is a volatility-based tool inspired by the Relative Volatility Index (RVI) .
While the RVI measures the ratio of upward to downward volatility over a period, RVM takes a different approach:
It sums the standard deviation of price changes over a rolling window, separating upward volatility from downward volatility .
The result is a measure of the total “volatility mass” over a user-defined period, rather than an average or normalized ratio.
This makes RVM particularly useful for identifying sustained high-volatility conditions without being diluted by averaging.
────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────
╭────────────╮
How It Works
╰────────────╯
1. Standard Deviation Calculation
• Computes the standard deviation of the chosen `Source` over a `Standard Deviation Length` (`stdDevLen`).
2. Directional Separation
• Volatility on up bars (`chg > 0`) is treated as upward volatility .
• Volatility on down bars (`chg < 0`) is treated as downward volatility .
3. Rolling Sum
• Over a `Sum Length` (`sumLen`), the upward and downward volatilities are summed separately using `math.sum()`.
4. Relative Volatility Mass
• The two sums are added together to get the total volatility mass for the rolling window.
Formula:
RVM = Σ(σ up) + Σ(σ down)
where σ is the standard deviation over `stdDevLen`.
╭────────────╮
Key Features
╰────────────╯
Directional Volatility Tracking – Differentiates between volatility during price advances vs. declines.
Rolling Volatility Mass – Shows the total standard deviation accumulation over a given period.
Optional Smoothing – Multiple MA types, including SMA, EMA, SMMA (RMA), WMA, VWMA.
Bollinger Band Overlay – Available when SMA is selected, with adjustable standard deviation multiplier.
Configurable Source – Apply RVM to `close`, `open`, `hl2`, or any custom source.
╭─────╮
Usage
╰─────╯
Trend Confirmation: High RVM values can confirm strong trending conditions.
Breakout Detection: Spikes in RVM often precede or accompany price breakouts.
Volatility Cycle Analysis: Compare periods of contraction and expansion.
RVM is not bounded like the RVI, so absolute values depend on market volatility and chosen parameters.
Consider normalizing or using smoothing for easier visual comparison.
╭────────────────╮
Example Settings
╰────────────────╯
Short-term volatility detection: `stdDevLen = 5`, `sumLen = 10`
Medium-term trend volatility: `stdDevLen = 14`, `sumLen = 20`
Enable `SMA + Bollinger Bands` to visualize when volatility is unusually high or low relative to recent history.
╭───────────────────╮
Notes & Limitations
╰───────────────────╯
Not a directional signal by itself — use alongside price structure, volume, or other indicators.
Higher `sumLen` will smooth short-term fluctuations but reduce responsiveness.
Because it sums, not averages, values will scale with both volatility and chosen window size.
╭───────╮

Based on the Relative Volatility Index concept by Donald Dorsey (1993).

ATR+CCI Monetary Risk Tool - TP/SL⚙️ ATR+CCI Monetary Risk Tool — Volatility-aware TP/SL & Position Sizing
Exact prices (no rounding), ATR-percentile dynamic stops, and risk-budget sizing for consistent execution.
🧠 What this indicator is
A risk-first planning tool. It doesn’t generate orders; it gives you clean, objective levels (Entry, SL, TP) and position size derived from your risk budget. It shows only the latest setup to keep charts readable, and a compact on-chart table summarizing the numbers you actually act on.
✨ What makes it different
Dynamic SL by regime (ATR percentile): Instead of a fixed multiple, the SL multiplier adapts to the current volatility percentile (low / medium / high). That helps avoid tight stops in noisy markets and over-wide stops in quiet markets.
Risk budgeting, not guesswork: Size is computed from Account Balance × Max Risk % divided by SL distance × point value. You risk the same dollars across assets/timeframes.
Precision that matches your instrument: Entry, TP, SL, and SL Distance are displayed as exact prices (no rounding), truncated to syminfo.mintick so they align with broker/exchange precision.
Symbol-aware point value: Uses syminfo.pointvalue so you don’t maintain tick tables.
Non-repaint option: Work from closed bars to keep the plan stable.
🔧 How to use (quick start)
Add to chart and pick your timeframe and symbol.
In settings:
Set Account Balance (USD) and Max Risk per Trade (%).
Choose R:R (1:1 … 1:5).
Pick ATR Period and CCI Period (defaults are sensible).
Keep Dynamic ATR ON to adapt SL by regime.
Keep Use closed-bar values ON to avoid repaint when planning.
Read the labels (Entry/TP/SL) and the table (SL Distance, Position Size, Max USD Risk, ATR Percentile, effective SL Mult).
Combine with your entry trigger (price action, levels, momentum, etc.). This indicator handles risk & targets.
📐 How levels are computed
Bias: CCI ≥ 0 ⇒ long, otherwise short.
ATR Percentile: Percent rank of ATR(atrPeriod) over a lookback window.
Effective SL Mult:
If percentile < Low threshold ⇒ use Low SL Mult (tighter).
If between thresholds ⇒ use Base SL Mult.
If percentile > High threshold ⇒ use High SL Mult (wider).
Stop-Loss: SL = Entry ± ATR × SL_Mult (minus for long, plus for short).
Take-Profit: TP = Entry ± (Entry − SL) × R (R from the R:R dropdown).
Position Size:
USD Risk = Balance × Risk%
Contracts = USD Risk ÷ (|Entry − SL| × PointValue)
For futures, quantity is floored to whole contracts.
Exact prices: Entry/TP/SL and SL Distance are not rounded; they’re truncated to mintick so what you see matches valid price increments.

🧪 Practical examples
High-volatility session (e.g., XAUUSD, 1H): ATR percentile is high ⇒ wider SL, smaller size. Reduces churn from normal noise during macro events.
Range-bound market (e.g., EURUSD, 4H): ATR percentile low ⇒ tighter SL, better R:R. Helps you avoid carrying unnecessary risk.
Index swing planning (e.g., ES1!, Daily): Non-repaint levels + risk budgeting = consistent sizing across days/weeks, easier to review and journal.
🧭 Why traders should use it
Consistency: Same dollar risk regardless of instrument or volatility regime.
Clarity: One-trade view forces focus; you see the numbers that matter.
Adaptivity: Stops calibrated to the market’s current behavior, not last month’s.
Discipline: A visible checklist (SL distance, size, USD risk) before you hit buy/sell.
🔧 Input guide (practical defaults)
CCI Period: 100 by default; use as a bias filter, not an entry signal.
ATR Period: 14 by default; raise for smoother, lower for more reactive.
ATR Percentile Lookback: 200 by default (stable regime detection).
Percentile thresholds: 33/66 by default; widen the gap to change how often regimes switch.
SL Mults: Start ~1.5 / 2.0 / 2.5 (low/base/high). Tune by asset.
Risk % per trade: Common pro ranges are 0.25–1.0%; adjust to your risk tolerance.
R:R: Start with 1:2 or 1:3 for balanced skew; adapt to strategy edge.
Closed-bar values: Keep ON for planning/live; turn OFF only for exploration.
💡 Best practices
Combine with your entry logic (structure, momentum, liquidity levels).
Review ATR percentile and effective SL Mult across sessions so you understand regime shifts.
For futures, remember size is floored to whole contracts—safer by design.
Journal trades with the table snapshot to improve risk discipline over time.
⚠️ Notes & limitations
This is not a strategy; it does not place orders or alerts.
No slippage/commissions modeled here; build a strategy() version for backtests that mirror your broker/exchange.
Displayed non-price metrics use two decimals; prices and SL Distance are exact (truncated to mintick).

Mutanabby_AI | Ultimate Algo | Remastered+Overview
The Mutanabby_AI Ultimate Algo Remastered+ represents a sophisticated trend-following system that combines Supertrend analysis with multiple moving average confirmations. This comprehensive indicator is designed specifically for identifying high-probability trend continuation and reversal opportunities across various market conditions.
Core Algorithm Components
**Supertrend Foundation**: The primary signal generation relies on a customizable Supertrend indicator with adjustable sensitivity (1-20 range). This adaptive trend-following tool uses Average True Range calculations to establish dynamic support and resistance levels that respond to market volatility.
**SMA Confirmation Matrix**: Multiple Simple Moving Averages (SMA 4, 5, 9, 13) provide layered confirmation for signal strength. The algorithm distinguishes between regular signals and "Strong" signals based on SMA 4 vs SMA 5 relationship, offering traders different conviction levels for position sizing.
**Trend Ribbon Visualization**: SMA 21 and SMA 34 create a visual trend ribbon that changes color based on their relationship. Green ribbon indicates bullish momentum while red signals bearish conditions, providing immediate visual trend context.
**RSI-Based Candle Coloring**: Advanced 61-tier RSI system colors candles with gradient precision from deep red (RSI ≤20) through purple transitions to bright green (RSI ≥79). This visual enhancement helps traders instantly assess momentum strength and overbought/oversold conditions.
Signal Generation Logic
**Buy Signal Criteria**:
- Price crosses above Supertrend line
- Close price must be above SMA 9 (trend confirmation)
- Signal strength determined by SMA 4 vs SMA 5 relationship
- "Strong Buy" when SMA 4 ≥ SMA 5
- Regular "Buy" when SMA 4 < SMA 5
**Sell Signal Criteria**:
- Price crosses below Supertrend line
- Close price must be below SMA 9 (trend confirmation)
- Signal strength based on SMA relationship
- "Strong Sell" when SMA 4 ≤ SMA 5
- Regular "Sell" when SMA 4 > SMA 5
Advanced Risk Management System
**Automated TP/SL Calculation**: The indicator automatically calculates stop loss and take profit levels using ATR-based measurements. Risk percentage and ATR length are fully customizable, allowing traders to adapt to different market conditions and personal risk tolerance.
**Multiple Take Profit Targets**:
- 1:1 Risk-Reward ratio for conservative profit taking

Fibonacci-Based Volume Flow (VFI)Fibonacci-based Volume Flow is an advanced next-generation evolution of LazyBear’s original VFI script that calculates and averages up to 21 Fibonacci-based VFI pairings to create a smoothed composite volume flow signal. This unique and powerful approach reduces noise, adapts to volatility, and provides a clearer view of trend strength and market structure across all timeframes. It also includes dynamic fibonacci guide levels, adaptive lookbacks, EMA crossovers, and structure-aware pivot labeling to help traders identify high-quality reversals, confirm directional bias, and detect divergences with greater precision. It's ideal for traders looking to enhance momentum analysis through volume-based confirmation.
🧠 Key Features🧠
🔹 Multi-VFI Fibonacci Fusion🔹
Blends up to 21 VFI signals (5, 13, 21, 34… up to 610) into smartly paired averages (e.g., 13/34, 55/144) — forming a smoothed composite VFI that’s more adaptive, less noisy, and highly responsive across market conditions.
🔸🔸 Dynamic Lookbacks🔸 🔸
Automatically adjusts histogram high/low tracking based on your chart’s timeframe — no more static tuning. Perfect for scalping fast charts or confirming long-term trends.
🟥🟩 Color-Coded Histogram🟥🟩
Visualizes VFI momentum with gradient coloring.
🧩🧩 Signal Crossovers 🧩🧩
Color-coded crossover lines persistently show bullish or bearish dominance.
Includes three powerful crossover systems:
➖5/13 VFI: Fast, early reversal detection
➖8/21 VFI: Swing-trading sweet spot
➖55/144 VFI: Trend confirmation across long cycles
🏷️ 🏷️Pivot Structure Labels🏷️🏷️
Labels oscillator swings with full structural logic:
➖HH, HL, LH, LL, EQ
➖Displays percent change, price at pivot, oscillator reading
➖Smart coloring detects divergence & trend continuation
📈 📈Dynamic Histogram Guides📈📈
Optional zero and ±50% bands anchor histogram levels based on real histogram extremes, not static thresholds — visually frame momentum shifts with context.
📍 📍Persistent High/Low Pivot Lines📍📍
Track the most significant histogram pivots (not price) across time, with smart labels:
➖Volume flow structure zones
➖Label shows price at pivot, oscillator level, and bars since event
➖Ideal for spotting divergence zones, momentum failures, and trend exhaustion.
🔍 🔍Volatility Table (ATR%)🔍🔍
💡Shows real-time volatility compression or expansion
💡Uses multiple ATR periods (e.g., 14 & 55) for short- and medium-term comparison
💡Helps traders understand whether momentum is likely to continue or stall
🔩🔩Volume-weighted VFI baselines🔩🔩
🟢A daily session-based VWAP of the VFI, which resets each day and highlights intraday volume flow context.
🟠A rolling VWA of VFI, which acts like a VWMA over a fixed window (e.g., 55 bars), smoothing short-term fluctuations and supporting trend/momentum confirmation.
These VWAP-style overlays help traders identify strength vs. weakness relative to volume-weighted baselines — useful for divergence spotting, mean reversion setups, or breakout confirmation.
🧰 🧰Under the Hood: How It Works🧰🧰
🔧 Core VFI Logic
Based on LazyBear’s foundational VFI:
➖Uses log returns of price (HLC3)
➖Filters insignificant moves using volatility-weighted thresholds
➖Normalizes volume via adaptive capping (e.g., 2.5× average)
🌀 Composite Blend System
Each VFI instance is smoothed and then fused via user-selectable pairs. This creates a customizable average VFI representing short, mid, and long-term pressure — one value, many time horizons.
📊 EMA Signal Layer
Crosses trigger persistent color shifts in signal lines, making trend strength clear at a glance.
VFI blend feeds into EMA crossovers. You can toggle visibility for:
➖Fast (5/13)
➖Medium (8/21)
➖Slow (55/144)
🧭 Pivot Framework
Structure logic only compares pivots on same-side polarity:
➖Highs compare to highs above zero
➖Lows compare to lows below zero
This avoids nonsensical comparisons and preserves logical sequences (HH → LH → HL).
🧱 Dynamic Labels
All pivots and persistent levels display:
➖Oscillator value
➖Price value
➖Structure tag (e.g., LH, HL)
➖% change from prior pivot
➖Lookback info
➖Bar age
Unlike traditional VFI:
✅ It blends timeframes with Fibonacci precision
✅ Uses dynamic, volatility-aware logic
✅ Embeds visual structure & divergence intelligence
✅ Enhances entry confidence and exit timing
🔧 This isn’t just an indicator — it’s a volume-informed decision engine.
Ideal For:
🔶Trend-followers wanting cleaner volume-based confirmation
🔶Reversal traders spotting structure + divergence
🔶Scalpers or investors needing adaptable signals
🔶Those who loved LazyBear's VFI
📌 Final Note:
As powerful as Fibonacci Blended Volume Flow is, no single indicator should be used in isolation. For best results, combine it with price action analysis, higher-timeframe context, and complementary tools like trendlines, moving averages, or support/resistance levels. Use it as part of a well-rounded trading approach to confirm setups — not to define them alone.
Trend Strength Index [Alpha Extract]The Trend Strength Index leverages Volume Weighted Moving Average (VWMA) and Average True Range (ATR) to quantify trend intensity in cryptocurrency markets, particularly Bitcoin. The combination of VWMA and ATR is particularly powerful because VWMA provides a more accurate representation of the market's true average price by weighting periods of higher trading volume more heavily—capturing genuine momentum driven by increased participation rather than treating all price action equally, which is crucial in volatile assets like Bitcoin where volume spikes often signal institutional interest or market shifts.
Meanwhile, ATR normalizes this measurement for volatility, ensuring that trend strength readings remain comparable across different market conditions; without ATR's adjustment, raw price deviations from the mean could appear artificially inflated during high-volatility periods (like during news events or liquidations) or understated in low-volatility sideways markets, leading to misleading signals. Together, they create a volatility-adjusted, volume-sensitive metric that reliably distinguishes between meaningful trend developments and noise.
This indicator measures the normalized distance between price and its volume-weighted mean, providing a clear visualization of trend strength while accounting for market volatility. It helps traders identify periods of strong directional movement versus consolidation, with color-coded gradients for intuitive interpretation.
🔶 CALCULATION
The indicator processes price data through these analytical stages:
Volume Weighted Moving Average: Computes a smoothed average weighted by trading volume
Volatility Normalization: Uses ATR to account for market volatility
Distance Measurement: Calculates absolute deviation between current price and VWMA
Strength Normalization: Divides price deviation by ATR for a volatility-adjusted metric
Formula:
VWMA = Volume-Weighted Moving Average of Close over specified length
ATR = Average True Range over specified length
Price Distance = |Close - VWMA|
Trend Strength = Price Distance / ATR
🔶 DETAILS Visual Features:
VWMA Line: Blue line overlay on the price chart representing the volume-weighted mean
Trend Strength Area: Histogram-style area plot with dynamic color gradient (red for weak trends, transitioning through orange and yellow to green for strong trends)
Threshold Line: Horizontal red line at the customizable Trend Enter level
Background Highlight: Subtle green background when trend strength exceeds the enter threshold for strong trend visualization
Alert System: Triggers notifications for strong trend detection
Interpretation:
0-Weak (Red): Minimal trend strength, potential consolidation or ranging market
Mid-Range (Orange/Yellow): Building momentum, watch for breakout potential
At/Above Enter Threshold (Green): Strong trend conditions, potential for continued directional moves
Threshold Crossing: Trend strength crossing above the enter level signals increasing conviction in the current direction
Color Transitions: Gradual shifts from warm (red/orange) to cool (green) tones indicate strengthening trends
🔶 EXAMPLES
Strong Trend Entry: When trend strength crosses above the enter threshold (e.g., 1.2), it identifies the onset of a powerful move where price deviates significantly from the mean.
Example: During a rally, trend strength rising from yellow (around 1.0) to green (1.2+) often precedes sustained upward momentum, providing entry opportunities for trend followers.
Consolidation Detection: Low trend strength values in red shades (below 0.5) highlight periods of low volatility and mean reversion potential.
Example: After a sharp sell-off, persistent red values signal a likely sideways phase, allowing traders to avoid whipsaws and wait for orange/yellow transitions as a precursor to recovery.
Volatility-Adjusted Pullbacks: In volatile markets, the ATR component ensures trend strength remains accurate; a dip back to yellow from green during minor corrections can indicate healthy pullbacks within a strong trend.
Example: Trend strength briefly falling to yellow levels (e.g., 0.8-1.1) after hitting green provides profit-taking signals without invalidating the overall bullish bias if the VWMA holds as support.
Threshold Alert Integration: The alert condition combines strength value with the enter threshold for timely notifications.
Example: Receiving a "Strong Trend Detected" alert when the area plot turns green helps confirm Bitcoin's breakout from consolidation, aligning with increased volume for higher-probability trades.
🔶 SETTINGS
Customization Options:
Lengths: VWMA length (default 14), ATR length (default 14)
Thresholds: Trend enter (default 1.2, step 0.1), trend exit (default 1.15, for potential future signal enhancements)
Visuals: Automatic color scaling with red at 0, transitioning to green at/above enter threshold
Alert Conditions: Strong trend detection (when strength > enter)
The Trend Strength Index equips traders with a robust, easy-to-interpret tool for gauging trend intensity in volatile markets like Bitcoin. By normalizing price deviations against volatility, it delivers reliable signals for identifying high-momentum opportunities while the gradient coloring and alerts facilitate quick assessments in both trending and choppy conditions.
Time-Price Velocity [QuantAlgo]🟢 Overview
The Time-Price Velocity indicator uses advanced velocity-based analysis to measure the rate of price change normalized against typical market movement, creating a dynamic momentum oscillator that identifies market acceleration patterns and momentum shifts. Unlike traditional momentum indicators that focus solely on price change magnitude, this indicator incorporates time-weighted displacement calculations and ATR normalization to create a sophisticated velocity measurement system that adapts to varying market volatility conditions.
This indicator displays a velocity signal line that oscillates around zero, with positive values indicating upward price velocity and negative values indicating downward price velocity. The signal incorporates acceleration background columns and statistical normalization to help traders identify momentum shifts and potential reversal or continuation opportunities across different timeframes and asset classes.
🟢 How It Works
The indicator's key insight lies in its time-price velocity calculation system, where velocity is measured using the fundamental physics formula:
velocity = priceChange / timeWeight
The system normalizes this raw velocity against typical price movement using Average True Range (ATR) to create market-adjusted readings:
normalizedVelocity = typicalMove > 0 ? velocity / typicalMove : 0
where "typicalMove = ta.atr(lookback)" provides the baseline for normal price movement over the specified lookback period.
The Time-Price Velocity indicator calculation combines multiple sophisticated components. First, it calculates acceleration as the change in velocity over time:
acceleration = normalizedVelocity - normalizedVelocity
Then, the signal generation applies EMA smoothing to reduce noise while preserving responsiveness:
signal = ta.ema(normalizedVelocity, smooth)
This creates a velocity-based momentum indicator that combines price displacement analysis with statistical normalization, providing traders with both directional signals and acceleration insights for enhanced market timing.
🟢 How to Use
1. Signal Interpretation and Threshold Zones
Positive Values (Above Zero): Time-price velocity indicating bullish momentum with upward price displacement relative to normalized baseline
Negative Values (Below Zero): Time-price velocity indicating bearish momentum with downward price displacement relative to normalized baseline
Zero Line Crosses: Velocity transitions between bullish and bearish regimes, indicating potential trend changes or momentum shifts
Upper Threshold Zone: Area above positive threshold (default 1.0) indicating strong bullish velocity and potential reversal point
Lower Threshold Zone: Area below negative threshold (default -1.0) indicating strong bearish velocity and potential reversal point
2. Acceleration Analysis and Visual Features
Acceleration Columns: Background histogram showing velocity acceleration (the rate of change of velocity), with green columns indicating accelerating velocity and red columns indicating decelerating velocity. The interpretation depends on trend context: red columns in downtrends indicate strengthening bearish momentum, while red columns in uptrends indicate weakening bullish momentum
Acceleration Column Height: The height of each column represents the magnitude of acceleration, with taller columns indicating stronger acceleration or deceleration forces
Bar Coloring: Optional price bar coloring matches velocity direction for immediate visual trend confirmation
Info Table: Real-time display of current velocity and acceleration values with trend arrows and change indicators
3. Additional Features:
Confirmed vs Live Data: Toggle between confirmed (closed) bar analysis for stable signals or current bar inclusion for real-time updates
Multi-timeframe Adaptability: Velocity normalization ensures consistent readings across different chart timeframes and asset volatilities
Alert System: Built-in alerts for threshold crossovers and direction changes
🟢 Examples with Preconfigured Settings
Default : Balanced configuration suitable for most timeframes and general trading applications, providing optimal balance between sensitivity and noise filtering for medium-term analysis.
Scalping : High sensitivity setup with shorter lookback period and reduced smoothing for ultra-short-term trades on 1-15 minute charts, optimized for capturing rapid momentum shifts and frequent trading opportunities.
Swing Trading : Extended lookback period with enhanced smoothing and higher threshold for multi-day positions, designed to filter market noise while capturing significant momentum moves on 1-4 hour and daily timeframes.
ATR Squeeze BackgroundThis simple but powerful indicator shades the background of your chart whenever volatility contracts, based on a custom comparison of fast and slow ATR (Average True Range) periods.
By visualizing low-volatility zones, you can:
* Identify moments of compression that may precede explosive price moves
* Stay out of choppy, low-momentum periods
* Adapt this as a component in a broader volatility or breakout strategy
🔧 How It Works
* A Fast ATR (default: 7 periods) and a Slow ATR (default: 40 periods) are calculated
* When the Fast ATR is lower than the Slow ATR, the background is shaded in blue
* This shading signals a contraction in volatility — a condition often seen before breakouts or strong directional moves
⚡️ Why This Matters
Many experienced traders pay close attention to volatility cycles. This background indicator helps visualize those cycles at a glance. It's minimal, non-intrusive, and easy to combine with your existing tools.

ATR % Line from LoD/HoDATR % Line Trading Indicator - Entry Filter Tool
This Pine Script creates a sophisticated ATR (Average True Range) percentage-based entry filter indicator for TradingView that helps traders avoid buying overextended stocks and identify optimal entry zones based on volatility.
Core Functionality - Entry Discipline
The script calculates a maximum entry threshold by taking a percentage of the Average True Range (ATR) and projecting it from the current day's low. This creates a dynamic "no-buy zone" that adapts to market volatility, helping traders avoid purchasing stocks that have already moved too far from their daily base.
Key Calculation:
Measures the ATR over a specified period (default: 14 bars)
Takes a user-defined percentage of that ATR (default: 25%)
Projects this distance from the day's low to establish a maximum entry threshold
Entry Rule: Avoid buying when price exceeds this ATR% level from the daily low or high.
Visual Features
Entry Threshold Line:
Draws a horizontal line at the calculated maximum entry level
Line extends forward for clear visualization of the "no-buy zone"
Red zones above this line indicate overextended conditions
Fully customizable appearance with color, width, and style options
Smart Entry Alerts:
Optional labels show the ATR percentage threshold and exact price level
Visual confirmation when stocks are trading in acceptable entry zones vs. extended areas
Real-Time Monitoring Table:
Displays current distance from daily low as ATR percentage
Shows whether current price is in "safe entry zone" or "extended territory"
Customizable display options for clean chart analysis
Practical Applications for Entry Management
Avoiding Extended Entries:
Primary Use: Don't initiate long positions when price is more than X% ATR from the daily low
Prevents buying stocks that have already made their daily move
Reduces risk of buying at temporary tops within the trading session
Entry Zone Identification:
Price trading below the ATR% line = potential entry opportunity
Price trading above the ATR% line = wait for pullback or skip the trade
Combines volatility analysis with momentum discipline
Risk Management Benefits:
Improved Entry Timing: Enter closer to daily support levels
Better Risk/Reward: Shorter distance to stop loss (daily low)
Reduced Chasing: Systematic approach prevents FOMO-driven entries
Volatility Awareness: Higher volatility stocks get wider acceptable entry ranges
Configuration for Entry Filtering
Key Settings for Entry Management:
ATR Percentage: Set your maximum acceptable extension (15-30% common for day trading)
Reference Point: Use "Low" to measure extension from daily base
Line Style: Make highly visible to clearly see entry threshold
Alert Integration: Visual confirmation of entry-friendly zones
Typical Usage Scenarios:
Conservative Entries: 15-20% ATR from daily low
Moderate Extensions: 25-35% ATR for stronger momentum plays
Aggressive Setups: 40%+ ATR for breakout situations (use with caution)
Entry Strategy Integration
Pre-Market Planning:
Set ATR% threshold based on stock's typical volatility
Identify key levels where entries become unfavorable
Plan alternative entry strategies for extended stocks
Intraday Execution:
Monitor real-time ATR% extension from daily low
Avoid new long positions when threshold is exceeded
Wait for pullbacks to re-enter acceptable entry zones
This tool transforms volatility analysis into practical entry discipline, helping traders maintain consistent entry standards and avoid the costly mistake of chasing overextended stocks. By respecting ATR-based extension limits, traders can improve their entry timing and overall trade profitability.
