Renko Chart EmulationRenko charts are a popular tool in technical analysis, known for their ability to filter out market noise and focus purely on price movements. Unlike traditional candlestick or bar charts, Renko charts are not time-based but are constructed using bricks that represent a fixed price movement. This makes them particularly useful for identifying trends and key levels of support and resistance. While Renko charts are commonly found on platforms with specialized charting capabilities, they can also be emulated in Pine Script as a line indicator.
The Renko emulation indicator in Pine Script calculates the movement of price based on a user-defined brick size. Whenever the price moves up or down by an amount equal to or greater than the brick size, a new level is plotted, indicating a shift in price direction. This approach helps traders visualize significant price moves without the distractions of smaller fluctuations. By plotting the Renko levels as a continuous line and coloring it based on direction, this indicator provides a clean and straightforward representation of market trends.
Traders can use this Renko emulation line to identify potential entry and exit points, as well as to confirm ongoing trends. The simplicity of Renko charts makes them a favorite among those who prefer a minimalist approach to technical analysis. However, it is essential to choose an appropriate brick size that aligns with the volatility of the trading instrument. A smaller brick size may result in frequent signals, while a larger one can smooth out the chart, focusing only on the most substantial price movements. This script offers a flexible solution for incorporating Renko-style analysis into any trading strategy.
Correlation Coefficient Master TableThe Correlation Coefficient Master Table is a comprehensive tool designed to calculate and visualize the correlation coefficient between a selected base asset and multiple other assets over various time periods. It provides traders and analysts with a clear understanding of the relationships between assets, enabling them to analyze trends, diversification opportunities, and market dynamics. You can define key parameters such as the base asset’s data source (e.g., close price), the assets to compare against (up to six symbols), and multiple lookback periods for granular analysis.
The indicator calculates the covariance and normalizes it by the product of the standard deviations. The correlation coefficient ranges from -1 to +1, with +1 indicating a perfect positive relationship, -1 a perfect negative relationship, and 0 no relationship.
You can specify the lookback periods (e.g., 15, 30, 90, or 120 bars) to tailor the calculation to their analysis needs. The results are visualized as both a line plot and a table. The line plot shows the correlation over the primary lookback period (the Chart Length), which can be used to inspect a certain length close up, or could be used in conjunction with the table to provide you with five lookback periods at once for the same base asset. The dynamically created table provides a detailed breakdown of correlation values for up to six target assets across the four user-defined lengths. The table’s cells are formatted with rounded values and color-coded for easy interpretation.
This indicator is ideal for traders, portfolio managers, and market researchers who need an in-depth understanding of asset interdependencies. By providing both the numerical correlation coefficients and their visual representation, users can easily identify patterns, assess diversification strategies, and monitor correlations across multiple timeframes, making it a valuable tool for decision-making.

Improved Trend Reconnaissance | JeffreyTimmermansImproved Trend Reconnaissance
The Improved Trend Reconnaissance indicator is a robust tool designed to help traders identify and follow trends while avoiding market noise. It is especially effective for capturing longer-term trends and sustained price movements over extended time periods. By leveraging smoothed trend analysis and volatility-based consolidation detection, this indicator provides clear and actionable insights for traders focusing on significant market trends.
What Does This Indicator Do?
At its core, this indicator calculates a Half Trend value and applies advanced smoothing techniques to emphasize longer-term trends. Additionally, it incorporates volatility analysis using the Average True Range (ATR) to detect periods of consolidation, where trend signals are muted to prevent false signals.
Key Components Explained
Half Trend Calculation:
This indicator determines a Half Trend value based on the relationship between the Exponential Moving Average (EMA) of closing prices and the highest highs and lowest lows over a specified range.
The trend is further smoothed to minimize short-term fluctuations, ensuring the focus remains on sustained price movements.
ATR-Based Consolidation Detection:
By comparing the range of price highs and lows to a multiple of ATR, the indicator detects consolidation zones where the market is range-bound. During these periods, trend signals are suppressed to avoid false positives.
Trend Visualization:
Bullish Trends: Highlighted in green with upward markers and optional trend-colored candles.
Bearish Trends: Highlighted in red with downward markers and optional trend-colored candles.
Designed for Longer-Term Trends:
The default settings are optimized to capture longer-term trends, making this indicator particularly valuable for traders looking to identify and follow substantial market movements over extended periods.

This ensures that signals generated are more reliable and actionable.
Confirm Trend Signals:
Use the visual markers (flags) and dashboard status to validate bullish or bearish trends before making trading decisions.
Set Alerts:
Set alerts for bullish or bearish signals to stay informed about key market movements without constantly monitoring the charts.
Adapt for Your Strategy:
While optimized for longer-term trends, the customizable settings allow you to adapt the indicator for shorter-term strategies if needed.

Machine Learning RSI Bands V3The Machine Learning RSI Bands V3 is a cutting-edge trading tool designed to provide actionable insights by combining the strength of machine learning with a traditional RSI framework. It adapts dynamically to changing market conditions, offering traders a robust, data-driven approach to identifying opportunities.
Let’s break down its functionality and the logic behind each input to give you a clear understanding of how it works and how you can use it effectively.
RSI Parameters RSI Source (rsisrc): Choose the data source for RSI calculation, such as the closing price. This allows you to focus on the specific price data that aligns with your trading strategy. RSI Length (rsilen): Set the number of periods used for RSI calculation. A shorter length makes the RSI more reactive to price changes, while a longer length smooths out volatility. These inputs allow you to customize the foundational RSI calculations, ensuring the indicator fits your style of trading.
Band Limits Lower Band Limit (lb): Defines the RSI value below which the market is considered oversold. Upper Band Limit (ub): Defines the RSI value above which the market is considered overbought. These settings give you control over the thresholds for market conditions. By adjusting the band limits, you can tailor the indicator to be more or less sensitive to market movements.
Sampling and Reaction Settings Target Reaction Size (l): Determines the number of bars used to define pivot points. Smaller values react to shorter-term price movements, while larger values focus on broader trends. Backtesting Reaction Size (btw): Sets the number of bars used to validate signal performance. This ensures signals are only considered valid if they perform consistently within the specified range. Data Format (version): Choose between Absolute (ignoring direction) and Directional (incorporating directional price changes). Sampling Method (sm): Select how the data is analyzed—options include Price Movement, Volume Movement, RSI Movement, Trend Movement, or a Hybrid approach. These settings empower you to refine how the indicator processes and interprets data, whether focusing on short-term price shifts or broader market trends.
Signal Settings Signal Confidence Method (cm): Choose between: Threshold: Signals must meet a confidence limit before being generated. Voting: Requires a majority of 5 signal components to confirm a trade. Confidence Limit (cl): Defines the confidence threshold for generating signals when using the Threshold method. Votes Needed (vn): Sets the number of votes required to confirm a trade when using the Voting method. Use All Outputs (fm): If enabled, signals are generated without filtering, providing an unfiltered view of potential opportunities. This section offers a balance between precision and flexibility, enabling you to control the rigor applied to signal generation.
How It Works
The script uses machine learning models to adaptively calculate dynamic RSI bands. These bands adjust based on market conditions, providing a more responsive and nuanced interpretation of overbought and oversold levels.
Dynamic Bands: The lower and upper RSI bands are recalibrated using machine learning to reflect current market conditions. Signals: Long and short signals are generated when RSI crosses these bands, with additional filters applied based on your chosen confidence method and sampling settings. Transparency: Real-time success rates and profit factors are displayed on the chart, giving you clear feedback on the indicator's performance.
Why Use Machine Learning RSI Bands V3?
This indicator is built for traders who want more than static thresholds and generic signals. It offers:
Adaptability: Machine learning dynamically adjusts the indicator to market conditions. Customizability: Each input serves a specific purpose, giving you full control over its behavior. Accountability: With built-in performance metrics, you always know how the tool is performing.
This is a tool designed for those who value precision and adaptability in trading.
Fibonacci Trading Strategy (Auto Levels)How It Works
Swing Highs and Lows Detection:
The script identifies the highest high and lowest low over a specified lookback period (default: 50 candles). These points are used as the basis for Fibonacci calculations.
Fibonacci Levels:
Fibonacci retracement levels: 0%, 38.2%, 50%, 61.8%, 78.6%, and 100%.
Fibonacci extension levels: 127.2%, 161.8%, 200%, 261.8%, and 361.8%.
Each level is plotted on the chart with a specific color and labeled with the corresponding price.
Entry Zones:
Pullback Area: Between the 50% and 61.8% retracement levels. This area is highlighted in green, indicating a potential entry for conservative traders.
Full Margin Area: Between the 61.8% and 78.6% retracement levels. This area is highlighted in red, suggesting a higher-risk entry for aggressive traders.
Stop Loss (SL):
The Stop Loss is placed at the 78.6% Fibonacci retracement level. A dotted red line is drawn at this level to provide a visual reference for risk management.
Entry labels include the Stop Loss price for clarity.
Take Profit (TP) Levels:
Multiple take-profit targets are identified using Fibonacci extension levels (127.2%, 161.8%, 200%, 261.8%, and 361.8%).
Each level is labeled with the price and target percentage.
Visual Aids:
The script dynamically labels each Fibonacci level with its corresponding price.
Entry points (Pullback and Full Margin) are marked with clear labels, including the recommended Stop Loss.
Background highlights help distinguish the Pullback and Full Margin areas.
Strategy Highlights
Risk Management:
Incorporates a well-defined Stop Loss at the 78.6% level to limit downside risk.
Multiple take-profit levels help traders scale out of positions gradually.
Automation:
Automatically recalculates levels when new swing highs or lows are detected, ensuring accuracy in dynamic markets.
Customizability:
Users can adjust the lookback period to suit different timeframes or trading styles.
Clarity:
Clean visuals and detailed labels ensure the strategy is easy to interpret and apply.
When to Use
The strategy is suitable for trend-following traders looking to enter during pullbacks in an established trend.
It works best in trending markets where Fibonacci levels often act as strong support or resistance.
Example Scenario
Bullish Setup:
Price retraces to the 50%-61.8% area (Pullback Area) after a swing high.
A buy order is placed in this zone, with the Stop Loss at the 78.6% level.
Profit targets are set at the 127.2%, 161.8%, and higher Fibonacci extensions.
Bearish Setup:
In a downtrend, price retraces upward to the 50%-61.8% zone.
A sell order is placed, with the Stop Loss at the 78.6% level and take-profit levels below.
STH MVRV + Double MA | JeffreyTimmermansSTH MVRV + Double MA
This indicator combines blockchain analytics and technical analysis to provide traders with insights into market trends and cycles. At its core, it utilizes the Short-Term Holder (STH) Market Value to Realized Value (MVRV) ratio, a powerful metric in blockchain analysis, alongside Moving Averages (MA's) to offer a comprehensive view of market dynamics.
What Is the STH-MVRV Ratio?
The STH-MVRV ratio is a blockchain-based metric that compares the market value of Bitcoin held by short-term holders to its realized value.
Market Value: The current price of Bitcoin multiplied by the number of coins held by short-term holders.
Realized Value : The average price at which short-term holders acquired their Bitcoin, based on blockchain transaction data.
This ratio provides a unique perspective on market sentiment:
Above 1: Short-term holders, on average, are in profit. This often signals a bullish market.
Below 1: Short-term holders are, on average, at a loss, which can indicate bearish sentiment.
The STH-MVRV is particularly useful for identifying potential market tops or bottoms, as short-term holder behavior often reflects broader market trends.
How Does This Indicator Work?
The STH MVRV + Double MA indicator builds on the STH-MVRV ratio by integrating it with additional data and tools to enhance its practical use:
STH-MVRV Variations:
STH-MVRV (MVRV): The traditional ratio as described above.
Price-Based MVRV: A variation using Bitcoin price to measure similar dynamics.
Average MVRV: A hybrid metric combining the two for balanced insights.
Dynamic Moving Averages (MA's):
Primary SMA (STH-MVRV): Smooths out fluctuations in the STH-MVRV ratio over a default period of 155 days.
Extra MA: A faster-moving average for shorter-term trends (default: 50 days).
Second MA: A slower-moving average for longer-term trends (default: 200 days).
Visual and Alert Features:
Color-coded plots to highlight bullish or bearish conditions.
Alerts for key crossover events, such as when STH-MVRV crosses above/below critical levels or Moving Averages.
Key Features
STH-MVRV as a Sentiment Gauge:
Use the ratio to determine whether short-term holders are profiting (bullish) or losing (bearish).
Moving Average Integration:
Identify trends and reversals with customizable Moving Averages.
Crossovers between MA's and the STH-MVRV indicate actionable trading signals.
Customizable Parameters:
Tailor SMA and MA settings to align with your strategy.
Adjust colors and labels for clearer insights.
Real-Time Updates:
Dynamic labels display the current values of STH-MVRV, Price-based MVRV, or the Average, providing instant clarity.
How to Use This Indicator
Gauge Market Sentiment:
Use the STH-MVRV to understand whether the market is overvalued or undervalued based on short-term holder behavior.
Trend Identification with MA's:
Monitor crossovers between STH-MVRV and Moving Averages for potential buy or sell signals.
Analyze Market Cycles:
Use the Average MVRV to gain a broader view of market conditions, balancing short-term and long-term insights.
What Makes This Indicator Unique?
In-Depth Blockchain Metric: Builds directly on the STH-MVRV ratio, a key metric in blockchain analysis.
Integrated Analysis: Combines the STH-MVRV with Moving Averages for enhanced functionality.
Customizability and Practicality: Users can adapt the settings to fit their unique trading style, ensuring the tool is both flexible and powerful.
This combination of blockchain insights and technical tools makes the STH MVRV + Double MA indicator an essential addition to any trader’s arsenal. Use it to stay ahead of market trends and make informed decisions with confidence.

1. Intro
This is a rich equipped fork of my previous "Backtest any Indicator v5". And serves as the fitting backtester and trade strategy creation tool for my upcoming ANN Indicators (artificial neural network).
As the previous version this script has no trade signal generating code. The trade signals comes in by the five user settable input slots where the user plug-in external indicators. The final trade siganls go long etc are defined by a algebraic/boolean equation typed in as text in 4 terminals as shown in Image 0 . With this algebraic/boolean equations input the user can setup any trade logic as complex and fast and easy as never seen before here on TradingView.

3. Algebraic/Boolean Equation
This is where the magic happens. Unlike other backtesters that rely on drop-down menus to define trade signal equations—thus limiting the number of input signals and the complexity of logic—this script uses a string interpreter to solve equations. With this, you can develop your trade logic equations and add signals or conditions simply by writing them down in algebraic/boolean form.
The instruction set for this interpreter includes not only external input signals but also several internal values. These include BarTime, BarIndex, Open, High, Low, Close, True Range, Minimal Tick, Volume, and a signal that indicates whether there is an open trade (long, short, or none). You can also reference the values of past bars for all these inputs and, of course, use constant values in your equations. There is a sad limitation: Only one past bar value per equation is practicable. If you use more, errors can occur. It seems to be caused by the pipe line architecture of the parallel computing. In any attempt to solve this issue an older function call result was hand over.
The implemented functions cover a wide range of algebraic and boolean operations. A boolean "true" is represented by all values greater than zero, while "false" is represented by zero or values less than zero.
4. Instruction set for the Algebraic/Boolean Equation
There are functions that accept either two input values or one input value. The general form is (XandY) or (notX), where X and Y can be any input slot, predefined value, constant, or another sub-equation. Functions are always written in lowercase, while input slots and predefined values use uppercase letters.
Each sub-equation must be enclosed in parentheses, e.g., (A+B). Without proper use of parentheses, the interpreter cannot determine which function to calculate first. Negative constants must be expressed by subtracting from zero (e.g., (0-3.14)), so careful attention is required.
Here are some examples that demonstrate both incorrect and correct notations:
incorrect correct
(A+B*C) (A+(B*C))
(A+B+D+E) (A+(B+(D+E)))
(-20>A) ((0-20)>A)
(A*-B) (A*(0-B))
(AnotB) (Aand(notB))
ABS(a-b) (abs(A-B))
The correct usage ensures the interpreter calculates in the intended order.
And here comes the complete Instruction Set:
Addition: (A+B)
Subtraction: (A-B)
Multiplication: (A*B)
Division: (A/B)
Absolut value: (absA)
Power of: (A^B)
Natural Logarithm: (logA)
Lowest value of Low of last x bars: (lotx)
Highest value of High of last x bars: (hotx)
Modulo, Remainder of a Division: (A%B)
Round: (rndA)

Round to floor: (floA)
Round to next minimal tick: (mitA)
EMA of A of last 3 bars: (e03A)
EMA of A of last 7 bars: (e07A)
EMA of A of last 10 bars: (e10A)
EMA of A of last 20 bars: (e20A)
EMA of A of last 50 bars: (e50A)
Smaller then: (AB)
Equal to: (A==B)
Unequal to: (A!=B)
And: (AandB)
Or: (AorB)
Exclusive Or: (AxorB)
Not: (notA)
Past bar value: (A ) ,whereby x can be 1,2,3,...,barIndex-1
Bar time: (T)
Bar index: (I)
Opening Price of Bar: (O)
Highest Price of Bar: (H)
Lowest Price of Bar: (L)
Closing Price of Bar: (C)
Min tick value for the current symbol: (K)
Trade Volume: (V)
True Range: (R)
Is Money invested: (M) ,Long position: M=1,
Short position: M=-1,
No position: M=0
Reminder: if you wanna replace A or B above don't forget the parentheses. So if you have (logA) and wanna replace A with D+F so the correct replacement would be (log(D+F)).
In the following there are some examples of popular bar patterns and useful filters:
Doji: ((abs(O-C))<(10*K))and((H-L)>(100*K))
green Hammer: (((H-C)<(5000*K))and(((O-L)/2)>(abs(O-C)))
Up trend: (C>(e10H))
Down trend: (C<(e10L))
cool down 7 bars: (( any buy condition )and((e07(absM))==0))
possible Pivot High: (H==(hot30))and((CC))
possible Pivot Low: (L==(lot30))and((C>H )or(O0)), goShort ((A>0)and((A )<0)), Enter Signal delay=0, Exit Signal delay=0, Alternate Trades=true

6. Usage
First you need to attach some signals from external Indicators. In the example above we use the Stochastic RSI indicator from TradingView. Load the Stochastic RSI indicator to the chart. Then you go to the settings menu of this script, choose in the drop-down menu of Input A the signal .
In case you wanna use a signal which is not in the drop-down menu of Input A do the following:
1) You need to know the name of the boolean (or integer) variable of your indicator which hold the desired signal. Lets say that this boolean variable is called BUY. If this BUY variable is not plotted on the chart you simply add the following code line at the end of your pine script.
For boolean (true/false) BUY variables use this:
plot(BUY ? 1:0,'Your buy condition hold in that variable BUY',display = display.data_window)
And in case your script's BUY variable is an integer or float then use instate the following code line:
plot(BUY ,'Your buy condition hold in that variable BUY',display = display.data_window)
2) Probably the name of this BUY variable in your indicator is not BUY. Simply replace in the code line above the BUY with the name of your script's trade condition variable.
3) Do the same procedure for your SELL variable. Then save your changed Indicator script.
4) Then add the changed Indicator script from step before and this backtester script to the chart ...
5) and go to the settings of it. Choose under "Settings -> Input A " your Indicator. So in the example above choose .
The form is usually: ' : BUY'. Then you see something like Image 1
6) Decide about each trade logic for Go Long and Go Short . In this Example we use for GoLong if "Stoch RSI: K" is smaller then 20. The "Stoch RSI: K" we already loaded it in input A. So we set under Go Long (A<20) and set Enter Signal Delay to 0.
Now we setup Go Short if "Stoch RSI: K" is bigger then 80. So we set under Go Short A>80. Enter Signal Delay is already set.
7) For the Exit conditions you can choose (trailing) Stop loss or Take Profit or Exit by Indicator Signal. What ever comes first triggers the exit. If you like to use an EMA Indicator for the Exit by Indicator just load it in a free input slot B, D, E, F or use the inbuild EMA. For this example we use the inbuild EMA of the last 7 values of close. It is called by the following equation: (e07C). So to exit a long trade when the close price crossunder this EMA you have to type in Exit Long ((e07C)>C). For exit a short trade enter in Exit Short ((e07C)<C).
You can choose detailed time- and session filters. You can setup two take profit levels with quantity and stop loss, trailing, initial capital, quantity per trade and set the exchange fees. You get an overall result table and even a detailed, scroll-able table with all trades.
Image 2
In the Image 2 you see the provided info tables about all Trades and the Result Summary. Further more every trade is marked by a background color, labels and levels. An opening Label with the trade direction and trade number. A closing Label again with the trade number, the trade profit in %, the trade gain in $ and the total amount of $ after all past trades. A green line for each take profit levels and an orange line for the (trail) stop loss. This summary table down left gives you an insign about how good or not so good the trade strategy is and with the trade list you can find those trade which should be avoided. Found those bad trades on the chart by the time or trade number. By seeing a big number of bad trades you may find a pattern and can formulate conditions to avoid those bad trades. Those new conditions you can easily add to the equations for enter or exit trades.
Now you have a backtest with the oppotunity to develope and envolve your trading strategy more and more. And for any iteration from general to detailed you can do it with this backtester. You can add more and more filter signals or may change the setting of your Indicator to the best results and setup the following strategy settings like Time- and Session Filter, Stop Loss, Take Profit etc. With it you find a profitable strategy and it's settings.
7. Settings Menu
In the settings menu you will find the following high-lighted sections. Most of the settings have a attention mark on their right side. Move over it with the cursor to read specific explanation.
Input Signals: This are five input slots A, B, D, E & F which you can load up with your preferred Indicators.
Algebraic Equation for the Trade Signals: Here you setup the definitions for Go Long , Go Short , Ex Long & Ex Short . As shown in Image 3 you can combine the input slots A, B, D, E, F with predefined Variables O, H, L, C, T, I, V, K, M, R or any constant value with the in-build function in the instruction set.
Image 3
Additionally, you have the option to delay entry and exit signals. This feature is particularly useful when trade signals exhibit noise and require smoothing.
You can also enable the script to perform alternating trading . In this mode, trades alternate sequentially—after a long trade, a short trade follows, and then another long trade, and so on.
Image 4
As shown in Image 4 , you can configure the script so that an "exit by signal" also acts as the next entry in the opposite trade direction. To enable this, check the option Exit = Enter Next and set the exit condition as the opposite of the entry condition. With this setting, only one occurrence of the signal is needed to trigger both the exit and the new entry, making the transition seamless.
Equation Tester: Each equation is assigned a checkmark and a color. Activate one like in Image 5 and the chart will highlight bars with a colored background where the corresponding equation result is greater than zero (interpreted as true). At the last bar, a label is displayed showing each equation’s result value. This feature allows you to build your equations and test sub-equations to ensure their results are correct.
Image 5
Backtest Results: Check mark the List of Trades to see any single trade with their stats. If there are more trades than can fit in the list, you can scroll down by decreasing the Scroll value.
Timezone Adjustment: In case you wanna use an Chart-UTC that differs from the time scale you can activate Timezone Adjustment . Then you have to setup your location UTC correctly! The Exchange UTC will be set in most cases automatically. Known Exchanges include Amsterdam, Chicago, New_York, Los_Angeles, Calcutta, Colombo, Moscow, St_Petersburg, Tokyo, Shanghai, Hongkong, Berlin, London, Paris, Madrid. Only if you have other exchanges you need to setup it by hand.
Time Filter: You can set a Start time or deactivate it by leave it unhooked. The same with End Time and Duration Days . Duration Days can also count from End time in case you deactivate Start time.
Session Filter: Here, you can choose to activate trading on a weekly basis, specifying which days of the week trading is allowed and which are excluded. Additionally, you can configure trading on a daily basis, setting the start and end times for when trades are permitted. If activated, no new trades will be initiated outside the defined times and sessions.
Long & Short: Here you can enable Longs or Shorts or both trades.
TP & SL Settings: Take Profit 1&2 set the target prices of any trade in relation to the entry price. The TP1 exit a part of the position defined by the quantity value. Stop Loss set the price to step out when a trade goes the wrong direction. You can activate also a trailing SL.
Additionally, you can specify whether trades should be executed intrabar or at the bar's closing.
Hedging: The Hedging is basic as shown in the following Image 6 and serves as a catch if price moves fast in the wrong direction.
Image 6
You can activate a hedging mechanism, which opens a trade in the opposite direction if the price moves x% against the entry price. If both the Stop Loss and Hedging are triggered within the same bar, the hedging action will always take precedence.
Invest Settings: Here, you can set the initial amount of cash to start with. The Quantity Percentage determines how much of the available cash is allocated to each trade, while the Fee Percentage specifies the trading fee applied to both opening and closing positions.
Webhooks: Here, you configure the License ID and the Comment. This is particularly useful if you plan to use multiple instances of the script, ensuring the webhooks target the correct positions. The Take Profit and Stop Loss values are displayed as prices.
8. Declaration for Tradingview House Rules on Script Publishing
This Backtester also serves as Strategy Development Tool by offering the user a fast and easy opportunity to test, enhance and manipulate the definitions for enter and exit trades. The unique feature "algebraic/boolean equation input" provides users with a significant edge over other backtest scripts. Unlike any other backtesting tool available with few drop-down menus for enter the equation, this script allows users to define an extensive range of trade equation definitions without setup of numerous specific parameters. This is reached by four terminals where the user type in the equation as text. Those equations in text-form are send intern to a context-depending touring machine that interprets the string. So with this tool, users can implement their trading ideas—even those involving complex definitions for trade entries and exits based on huge number of variables and indicators—without hiring a developer.
This script is closed-source and invite-only to support and compensate for over a year of development work. Unlike traditional backtest scripts, this one does not rely on TradingView's strategy functions. Instead, it is designed as an indicator, utilizing TradingView's "Indicator-on-Indicator" functionality.

Volatility IndicatorThe volatility indicator presented here is based on multiple volatility indices that reflect the market’s expectation of future price fluctuations across different asset classes, including equities, commodities, and currencies. These indices serve as valuable tools for traders and analysts seeking to anticipate potential market movements, as volatility is a key factor influencing asset prices and market dynamics (Bollerslev, 1986).
Volatility, defined as the magnitude of price changes, is often regarded as a measure of market uncertainty or risk. Financial markets exhibit periods of heightened volatility that may precede significant price movements, whether upward or downward (Christoffersen, 1998). The indicator presented in this script tracks several key volatility indices, including the VIX (S&P 500), GVZ (Gold), OVX (Crude Oil), and others, to help identify periods of increased uncertainty that could signal potential market turning points.
Volatility Indices and Their Relevance
Volatility indices like the VIX are considered “fear gauges” as they reflect the market’s expectation of future volatility derived from the pricing of options. A rising VIX typically signals increasing investor uncertainty and fear, which often precedes market corrections or significant price movements. In contrast, a falling VIX may suggest complacency or confidence in continued market stability (Whaley, 2000).
The other volatility indices incorporated in the indicator script, such as the GVZ (Gold Volatility Index) and OVX (Oil Volatility Index), capture the market’s perception of volatility in specific asset classes. For instance, GVZ reflects market expectations for volatility in the gold market, which can be influenced by factors such as geopolitical instability, inflation expectations, and changes in investor sentiment toward safe-haven assets. Similarly, OVX tracks the implied volatility of crude oil options, which is a crucial factor for predicting price movements in energy markets, often driven by geopolitical events, OPEC decisions, and supply-demand imbalances (Pindyck, 2004).
Using the Indicator to Identify Market Movements
The volatility indicator alerts traders when specific volatility indices exceed a defined threshold, which may signal a change in market sentiment or an upcoming price movement. These thresholds, set by the user, are typically based on historical levels of volatility that have preceded significant market changes. When a volatility index exceeds this threshold, it suggests that market participants expect greater uncertainty, which often correlates with increased price volatility and the possibility of a trend reversal.
For example, if the VIX exceeds a pre-determined level (e.g., 30), it could indicate that investors are anticipating heightened volatility in the equity markets, potentially signaling a downturn or correction in the broader market. On the other hand, if the OVX rises significantly, it could point to an upcoming sharp movement in crude oil prices, driven by changing market expectations about supply, demand, or geopolitical risks (Geman, 2005).
Practical Application
To effectively use this volatility indicator in market analysis, traders should monitor the alert signals generated when any of the volatility indices surpass their thresholds. This can be used to identify periods of market uncertainty or potential market turning points across different sectors, including equities, commodities, and currencies. The indicator can help traders prepare for increased price movements, adjust their risk management strategies, or even take advantage of anticipated price swings through options trading or volatility-based strategies (Black & Scholes, 1973).
Traders may also use this indicator in conjunction with other technical analysis tools to validate the potential for significant market movements. For example, if the VIX exceeds its threshold and the market is simultaneously approaching a critical technical support or resistance level, the trader might consider entering a position that capitalizes on the anticipated price breakout or reversal.
Conclusion
This volatility indicator is a robust tool for identifying market conditions that are conducive to significant price movements. By tracking the behavior of key volatility indices, traders can gain insights into the market’s expectations of future price fluctuations, enabling them to make more informed decisions regarding market entries and exits. Understanding and monitoring volatility can be particularly valuable during times of heightened uncertainty, as changes in volatility often precede substantial shifts in market direction (French et al., 1987).

The Eight Key Components and Their Importance
The composite Z-score integrates the Z-scores of the following eight financial metrics. These metrics have been selected for their complementary insights into various aspects of financial market conditions:
VIX (S&P 500 Volatility Index)
Reflects implied volatility in the U.S. equity market.
High VIX values indicate increased uncertainty and risk aversion among market participants.
MOVE (US Treasury Bond Volatility Index)
Captures volatility in U.S. Treasury bonds.
Essential for understanding risk in fixed-income markets, which significantly impact broader economic conditions.
ICE BofA High Yield Option Adjusted Spread (BAMLH0A0HYM2)
Measures the risk premium for high-yield corporate bonds.
Rising spreads suggest increased credit risk and potential economic stress.
ICE BofA Corporate Index Option Adjusted Spread (BAMLC0A0CM)
Tracks credit spreads in the investment-grade bond market.
Helps evaluate the health of higher-quality corporate debt, a key indicator of financial stability.
ICE BofA US High Yield Index Spread (BAMLH0A0HYM2)
Focuses on high-yield U.S. corporate bonds.
Provides localized insights into U.S. credit conditions and risk levels.
CDS (Credit Default Swap Spreads)
Measures the cost of insuring against bond defaults.
Rising CDS spreads signal growing concern over creditworthiness, often a leading indicator of financial stress.
Global Bond Spread (AGG)
Represents global fixed-income spreads.
Offers a broader perspective on international financial conditions beyond the U.S. market.
TED Spread (Treasury-EuroDollar Spread)
The difference between interbank lending rates and short-term U.S. Treasury yields.
Widely regarded as an indicator of systemic risk in the banking sector.

Follow Through Day (FTD) + Sweep [TrendX_]The Follow Through Day (FTD) + Sweep indicator is a Trend-following tool mixing William O'Neil's original FTD concept and Liquidity concept. This indicator helps you identify potential subsequent bullish trends with greater precision by combining volume analysis, price action, and liquidity concepts.
💎 FEATURES
Follow Through Day Candle (FTD Candle)
The FTD, pioneered by William O'Neil, serves as a reliable signal for identifying the beginning of new bull markets. It's particularly valuable because it combines multiple market factors - price action, volume, and timing - to confirm genuine market reversals rather than temporary bounces.
The power of the FTD lies in its ability to distinguish between ordinary market fluctuations and significant trend changes. By requiring specific criteria to be met across multiple sessions, it helps filter out false signals and identifies high-probability reversal points where institutional investors are likely beginning to accumulate positions.
Sweep Area
The Sweep area feature enhances the traditional FTD concept by incorporating modern liquidity analysis. This overlay identifies zones where large market participants are likely to trigger stop losses before continuing the trend. These areas often represent optimal entry points for traders looking to join the new uptrend with reduced risk.
🔎 BREAKDOWN
FTD Candle
The FTD formation process occurs in two distinct phases: Setup and Completion.
Setup Phase
Strong Market Decline
The market must first experience a significant downtrend
This selling pressure helps clear out weak hands and creates oversold conditions
The decline creates the potential energy for a powerful reversal
First Recovery Session
Marks the initial sign of buying pressure emerging
Often characterized by a strong reversal candle
Represents the first indication that selling pressure may be exhausting
Recovery Confirmation
The second and third days must maintain prices above the new pivot low
This consolidation period helps confirm the validity of the initial bounce
Shows that sellers are no longer in control of price action
Completion Phase:
Supply Test Session
Low volume indicates diminishing selling pressure
Price remains above the pivot low
Creates the foundation for institutional buyers to begin accumulating
Breakout Day
Price increase exceeds average profit of bullish candles
Volume increases by at least 15% compared to previous session
Shows strong institutional commitment to the new uptrend
Timing Window
Must occur between the 4th and 8th candle after First Recovery Session
This specific timing helps confirm the sustainability of the reversal
Based on O'Neil's research of historical market bottoms
FTD Sweep
The Post-FTD Phase introduces the Sweep concept, which is crucial for understanding how large market participants operate. This feature leverages the liquidity concept because institutional traders often need to trigger stop losses to accumulate larger positions at better prices. This helps:
Create liquidity pools for large position entries
Shake out weak hands before continuing the trend
Test the strength of the new trend by absorbing selling pressure
⚙️ USAGE
Sweep + TP & SL Strategy
Example: BTCUSDT (1D) - Replay back to 9th November 2024
After an FTD candle forms, traders can adopt a systematic approach to enhance their trading strategy. First, they should determine the swing range and convert the post-FTD zone into concrete stop loss and take profit levels, which are based on the price action during the FTD formation. Next, traders should wait for a sweep formation, as this indicates that institutional players are accumulating positions. A quick price rejection from the sweep level should be observed before executing an entry.
The reasoning behind this strategy is rooted in market microstructure. By waiting for the sweep, traders position themselves alongside institutional players who need to build large positions without causing adverse price movement. The sweep creates the liquidity they need, and the subsequent move often represents the true trend continuation.
DISCLAIMER
This indicator is not financial advice, it can only help traders make better decisions. There are many factors and uncertainties that can affect the outcome of any endeavor, and no one can guarantee or predict with certainty what will occur. Therefore, one should always exercise caution and judgment when making decisions based on past performance.
