[volfgang] wave.liteThe wave.lite indicator is a simplified version of my WAVE momentum tracker indicator, designed to help traders identify market trends by analysing price action across multiple timeframes. As a simplified version of my full WAVE script, it focuses on core momentum signals and confluence for the current timeframe only.
Quick Summary
The Lite WAVE features a signal line that alternates between Red (bearish) and Blue (bullish).
It turns Blue when the WAVE line crosses above the signal and holds for 1 bar.
It turns Red when the WAVE line crosses below the signal and holds for 1 bar.
Under The Hood
The Lite WAVE aggregates close, high, low, and EMA data over a set period to measure recent price extremes and midpoint deviations, emphasizing newer action. It calculates averages for high-to-high and low-to-low differences to derive the WAVE value, smoothed for trend determination.
This lite version omits advanced divergence, specialist info box, confluence scanner and signal features from the full WAVE, focusing on momentum tracking for simplicity. It's suitable for all markets and assets; always combine with other analysis—past performance doesn't guarantee future results.
Momentum Candle ProjectionThis indicator projects future price momentum by calculating a directional vector from recent price movements. It uses a custom implementation of the atan2 function to create a vector average of the last N candles and visualizes this projection as a synthetic future candle.
🔍 What It Does:
✅ Tracks recent momentum using geometric vectors from price change.
✅ Projects a synthetic "momentum candle" one bar ahead, showing anticipated direction and magnitude.
✅ Optionally plots a secondary "future candle" based on a smoothed estimate of projected price vs. real current close.
⚙️ Settings:
Vector Lookback (bars): Controls how many bars are used to calculate the momentum vector.
Projection Length Multiplier: Adjusts how far forward the vector is projected based on its strength.
🟢 How To Use:
Use the lime/red projection candle to anticipate short-term directional bias.
Use the orange/maroon future candle to compare projected continuation vs. current closing price.
Spot early reversals, continuation zones, and momentum decay in real-time.

Pivot Squeeze IndicatorThe Pivot Squeeze Indicator is an oscillator that identifies when markets are "squeezed" between recent pivot highs and lows, then signals when they're ready to make their next big move.
How it Works
The indicator calculates the percentage distance between the current price and the most recent pivot high vs. pivot low. When this distance gets compressed (small), the market is "squeezed" and building energy. When it expands rapidly, you get your breakout signal.
The indicator adapts to current market volatility using four different modes:
- ATR-Based
- Bollinger Bands
- Keltner Channels
- Fixed %
What to Look For
🟠 Orange Background = Squeeze Zone
Market is compressed between recent pivots
Low volatility, building pressure
🟢 Green Breakout = Bullish Signal
Price breaking out above recent highs
Momentum shifting upward
Time to look for long opportunities
🔴 Red Breakout = Bearish Signal
Price breaking down below recent lows
Momentum shifting downward
Time to look for short opportunities
Using Histogram Colors:
Green bars = Bullish territory (closer to recent highs)
Red bars = Bearish territory (closer to recent lows)
Orange bars = Squeeze conditions (compressed between pivots)
Using MA Line:
When Histogram bars cross below or above MA Line in opposite direction, it might be good time to exit.
Default Settings: ATR-based thresholds with 14-period lookback - works great out of the box, but feel free to experiment with the different threshold modes to find what works best for your trading style! Recommended to use with other indicators to confirm signals
RSI with 2-Pole FilterA momentum indicator that tells you if a stock is overbought or oversold.
RSI goes between 0 and 100.
70 = overbought (might fall)
<30 = oversold (might rise)
It often looks jagged or choppy on volatile days.
Think of this filter like a momentum smoother:
It still follows RSI closely,
But it doesn’t react to every little jiggle in price,
Which helps avoid false signals.
it keeps track of:
The current RSI,
The last 2 RSI values (inputs), and
The last 2 outputs (filtered RSIs).
It uses feedback to shape the output based on previous values, making it smoother than a simple moving average.

❌ Avoid: Tick charts, <1min (too noisy), >Daily (loses sensitivity).
4. Confirmation Tools (Must-Use Combos)
A. Trend Confirmation
200 EMA (Price Chart)
Only trade longs if price > 200 EMA + momentum supports
Only trade shorts if price < 200 EMA + momentum confirms
ADX (14)
Use when ADX > 25 (strong trend) + momentum aligns
B. Volume Confirmation
Volume Profile
Enter longs only if momentum breaks resistance at high-volume nodes
VWAP
Buy pullbacks when momentum holds support and price is above VWAP
C. Price Structure
Fibonacci Retracements
Look for momentum breaks at 61.8% Fib levels for high-probability trades
Market Structure (Higher Lows/Lower Highs)
Momentum breakouts work best when price confirms trend
5. Trading Signals & Execution Rules
A. Breakout Trades (High Momentum)
Signal Conditions Action
Resistance Broken Histogram > Orange Zone + Price > Key S/R Enter Long
Support Broken Histogram < Blue Zone + Price < Key S/R Enter Short
Stop Loss:
Longs: 1 tick below nearest swing low
Shorts: 1 tick above nearest swing high
Take Profit:
Trail using the opposite zone (exit long when momentum drops below support)
B. Reversal Trades (Momentum Exhaustion)
Signal Conditions Action
Resistance Holding Histogram rejects Orange Zone + Bearish candle Short Entry
Support Holding Histogram bounces off Blue Zone + Bullish candle Long Entry
Stop Loss:
Beyond the recent swing high/low
Take Profit:
At next key S/R level
6. Advanced Interpretation
A. Divergence Trading
Hidden Bullish Divergence:
Price makes higher low, but momentum makes lower low → Potential reversal up
Hidden Bearish Divergence:
Price makes lower high, but momentum makes higher high → Potential reversal down
B. Session-Based Trading
London Open (3 AM EST): Watch for momentum breaks with volume surge
NY Midday (10 AM - 12 PM EST): Best for trend continuation
Crypto (UTC Midnight): Often sees volatility spikes
7. Risk Management & Position Sizing
Risk per trade: 1-2% of account
Leverage: ≤5x for intraday, ≤2x for swing
Avoid trading:
First 15 mins after major news
Low-volume periods (e.g., forex after 5 PM EST)
8. Pro Tips for Consistency
✅ Wait for Close: Don’t trade wicks, wait for candle close beyond zones.
✅ Combine with Price Action: Only trade if momentum aligns with candlestick patterns (e.g., pin bars, engulfing).
✅ Adjust Lookback: Increase in choppy markets, decrease in trends.
9. Limitations & Fixes
Issue Solution
Whipsaws in choppy markets Increase Min Lookback to 30+
Slow reaction in trends Reduce Max Lookback to 50
False breakouts Require volume confirmation
Final Verdict
This script is best used as a momentum filter – not a standalone system. Combine with:
✔ Trend indicators (200 EMA, ADX)
✔ Volume analysis (VWAP, Volume Profile)
✔ Price structure (S/R, Fibs)

RSI Mansfield +RSI Mansfield+ – Adaptive Relative Strength Indicator with Divergences
Overview
RSI Mansfield+ is an advanced relative strength indicator that compares your instrument’s performance against a configurable benchmark index or asset (e.g., Bitcoin Dominance, S&P 500). It combines Mansfield normalization, adaptive smoothing techniques, and automatic detection of bullish and bearish divergences (regular and hidden), delivering a comprehensive tool for assessing relative strength across any market and timeframe.
Originality and Motivation
Unlike traditional relative strength scripts, this indicator introduces several distinctive improvements:
Mansfield Normalization: Scales the ratio between the asset and the benchmark relative to its moving average, transforming it into a normalized oscillator that fluctuates around zero, making it easier to spot outperformance or underperformance.
Adaptive Smoothing: Automatically selects whether to use EMA or SMA based on the market type (crypto or stocks) and timeframe (intraday, daily, weekly, monthly), avoiding manual configuration and providing more robust results under varying volatility conditions.
Divergence Detection: Identifies four types of divergences in the Mansfield oscillator to help anticipate potential reversal points or trend confirmations.
Multi-Market Support: Offers benchmark selection among major crypto and global stock indices from a single input.
These enhancements make RSI Mansfield+ more practical and powerful than conventional relative strength scripts with static benchmarks or without divergence capabilities.
Core Concepts
Relative Strength (RS): Compares price evolution between your asset and the selected benchmark.
Mansfield Normalization: Measures how much the RS deviates from its historical moving average, expressed as a scaled oscillator.
Divergences: Detects regular and hidden bullish or bearish divergences within the Mansfield oscillator.
Timeframe Adaptation: Dynamically adjusts moving average lengths based on timeframe and market type.
How It Works
Benchmark Selection
Choose among over 10 indices or market domains (BTC Dominance, ETH Dominance, S&P 500, European indices, etc.).
Ratio Calculation
Computes the price-to-benchmark ratio and smooths it with the adaptive moving average.
Normalization and Scaling
Transforms deviations into a Mansfield oscillator centered around zero.
Dynamic Coloring
Green indicates relative outperformance, red signals underperformance.
Divergence Detection
Automatically identifies bullish and bearish (regular and hidden) divergences by comparing oscillator pivots against price pivots.
Baseline Reference
A clear zero line helps interpret relative strength trends.
Usage Guidelines
Benchmark Comparison
Ideal for traders analyzing whether an asset is outperforming or lagging its sector or market.
Divergence Analysis
Helps detect potential reversal or continuation signals in relative strength.
Multi-Timeframe Compatibility
Can be applied to intraday, daily, weekly, or monthly charts.
Interpretation
Oscillator >0 and green: outperforming the benchmark.
Oscillator <0 and red: underperforming.
Bullish divergences: potential relative strength reversal to the upside.
Bearish divergences: possible loss of momentum or reversal to the downside.
Credits
The concept of Mansfield Relative Strength is based on Stan Weinstein’s original work on relative performance analysis. This script was built entirely from scratch in TradingView Pine Script v6, incorporating original logic for adaptive smoothing, normalized scaling, and divergence detection, without reusing any external open-source code.
Adaptive Squeeze Momentum +Adaptive Squeeze Momentum+ (Auto-Timeframe Version)
Overview
Adaptive Squeeze Momentum+ is an enhanced volatility and momentum indicator designed to identify compression and expansion phases in price action. It is inspired by the classic Squeeze Momentum Indicator by LazyBear but introduces automatic parameter adaptation to any timeframe, making it simpler to use across different markets without manual configuration.
Concepts and Methodology
The script combines Bollinger Bands (BB) and Keltner Channels (KC) to detect periods when volatility contracts (squeeze) or expands (release).
A squeeze occurs when BB are inside KC, suggesting low volatility and potential breakout scenarios.
A squeeze release is detected when BB expand outside KC.
Momentum is derived using a linear regression applied to the difference between price and a midrange reference level.
Original Improvements
Compared to the original Squeeze Momentum Indicator, this version offers several enhancements:
Automatic Adaptation: BB and KC lengths and multipliers are dynamically adjusted based on the chart’s timeframe (from 1 minute up to 1 month), removing the need for manual tuning.
Simplified Visualization: A clean, minimalist histogram and clear squeeze state cross markers allow for faster interpretation.
Flexible Application: Designed to work consistently on intraday, daily, and higher timeframes across crypto, forex, stocks, and indices.
Features
Dynamic Squeeze Detection:
Gray Cross: Neutral (no squeeze detected)
Blue Cross: Active squeeze
Yellow Cross: Squeeze released
Momentum Histogram:
Positive/negative momentum shown with slope-based coloring.
Timeframe-Aware Parameters:
Automatically sets optimal BB/KC configurations.
Usage
Watch for blue crosses indicating an active squeeze phase that may precede a directional move.
Use the histogram color and slope to gauge momentum strength and direction.
Combine squeeze release signals with momentum confirmation for potential entries or exits.
Credits and Licensing
This script was inspired by LazyBear’s OLD “Squeeze Momentum Indicator” (). The implementation here significantly expands upon the original by introducing auto-adaptive parameters, restructured logic, and a new visualization approach. Published under the Mozilla Public License 2.0.

Rifle UnifiedThis script is designed for use on 30-second charts of Dow Jones-related symbols (YM, MYM, US30). It provides automated buy and sell signals using a combination of price action, RSI (Relative Strength Index), and volume analysis. The script is intended for both live trading signals and backtesting, with configurable risk management and debugging features.
Core Functionality
1. Signal Generation Logic
Trigger: The algorithm looks for a sharp price move (drop or rise) of a user-defined threshold (default: 80 points) within a specified lookback window (default: 20 minutes).
Levels: It monitors for price drops below specific numerical levels ending in 23, 43, or 73 (e.g., 42223, 42273).
RSI Condition: When price falls below one of these levels and the RSI is below 30, the setup is considered active.
Buy Signal: A buy is triggered if, after setup:
Price rises back above the level,
The RSI rate of change (ROC) indicates exhaustion of the drop,
The current bar shows positive momentum.
2. Trade Management
Stop Loss & Take Profit: Configurable fixed or trailing stop loss and take profit levels are plotted and managed automatically.
Exit Signals: The script signals exit based on price action relative to these risk management levels.
3. Filters & Enhancements
Parabolic Move Filter: Prevents entries during extreme price moves.
Dead Cat Bounce Filter: Avoids false signals after sharp reversals.

ANDROMEDA - Directional Strength Matrix [Multi-Asset]ANDROMEDA - Directional Strength Matrix
Pedro Canto – Portfolio Manager | CGA/CGE
OVERVIEW
The Directional Strength Matrix is a multi-symbol indicator designed to track and compare the directional momentum of up to five financial instruments simultaneously.
It builds upon the logic of the classic Currency Strength Slope, but expands its utility beyond currencies—making it applicable to indices, commodities, stocks, and crypto assets. The core of the system relies on a normalized slope algorithm, using a TMA-compensated moving average and ATR-based scaling to deliver accurate, real-time momentum readings.
This tool is ideal for traders seeking a quantitative view of strength and weakness across multiple assets, enabling fast relative analysis and improved decision-making in both trend-following and mean-reversion strategies.
---
WALKTHROUGH
Each asset’s directional strength is calculated using the slope of a weighted moving average (WMA), adjusted for volatility using the Average True Range (ATR). To reduce lag while maintaining stability, a TMA-compensated formula is applied — replicating behavior seen in the classic MQL4 CSS Indicator.
The normalized slope values are plotted as independent lines in a dedicated window, making it easy to spot which assets are strengthening or weakening at any given moment.
Key logic flow:
i) Calculate a TMA-style WMA for each instrument
ii) Estimate directional slope via differential between current and previous weighted averages
iii) Normalize by ATR to make values comparable across different assets and price ranges
iv) Plot all slope values on a shared matrix
Traders can compare multiple symbols side by side and visually identify the relative direction, strength, and acceleration of each asset.
---
USE CASES
- Comparing strength across indices like US30, US500, NASDAQ, Oil and Crypto
- Detecting early momentum shifts between competing assets
- Timing entries based on momentum divergence or alignment
- Filtering out weaker assets in trend strategies

Contrarian RSIContrarian RSI Indicator
Pairs nicely with Contrarian 100 MA (optional hide/unhide buy/sell signals)
Description
The Contrarian RSI is a momentum-based technical indicator designed to identify potential reversal points in price action by combining a unique RSI calculation with a predictive range model inspired by the "Contrarian 5 Levels" logic. Unlike traditional RSI, which measures price momentum based solely on price changes, this indicator integrates a smoothed, weighted momentum calculation and predictive price ranges to generate contrarian signals. It is particularly suited for traders looking to capture reversals in trending or range-bound markets.
This indicator is versatile and can be used across various timeframes, though it performs best on higher timeframes (e.g., 1H, 4H, or Daily) due to reduced noise and more reliable signals. Lower timeframes may require additional testing and careful parameter tuning to optimize performance.
How It Works
The Contrarian RSI combines two primary components:
Predictive Ranges (5 Levels Logic): This calculates a smoothed price average that adapts to market volatility using an ATR-based mechanism. It helps identify significant price levels that act as potential support or resistance zones.
Contrarian RSI Calculation: A modified RSI calculation that uses weighted momentum from the predictive ranges to measure buying and selling pressure. The result is smoothed and paired with a user-defined moving average to generate clear signals.
The indicator generates buy (long) and sell (exit) signals based on crossovers and crossunders of user-defined overbought and oversold levels, making it ideal for contrarian trading strategies.
Calculation Overview
Predictive Ranges (5 Levels Logic):
Uses a custom function (pred_ranges) to calculate a dynamic price average (avg) based on the ATR (Average True Range) multiplied by a user-defined factor (mult).
The average adjusts only when the price moves beyond the ATR threshold, ensuring responsiveness to significant price changes while filtering out noise.
This calculation is performed on a user-specified timeframe (tf5Levels) for multi-timeframe analysis.
Contrarian RSI:
Compares consecutive predictive range values to calculate gains (g) and losses (l) over a user-defined period (crsiLength).
Applies a Gaussian weighting function (weight = math.exp(-math.pow(i / crsiLength, 2))) to prioritize recent price movements.
Computes a "wave ratio" (net_momentum / total_energy) to normalize momentum, which is then scaled to a 0–100 range (qrsi = 50 + 50 * wave_ratio).
Smooths the result with a 2-period EMA (qrsi_smoothed) for stability.
Moving Average:
Applies a user-selected moving average (SMA, EMA, WMA, SMMA, or VWMA) with a customizable length (maLength) to the smoothed RSI (qrsi_smoothed) to generate the final indicator value (qrsi_ma).
Signal Generation:
Long Entry: Triggered when qrsi_ma crosses above the oversold level (oversoldLevel, default: 1).
Long Exit: Triggered when qrsi_ma crosses below the overbought level (overboughtLevel, default: 99).
Entry and Exit Rules
Long Entry: Enter a long position when the Contrarian RSI (qrsi_ma) crosses above the oversold level (default: 1). This suggests the asset is potentially oversold and due for a reversal.
Long Exit: Exit the long position when the Contrarian RSI (qrsi_ma) crosses below the overbought level (default: 99), indicating a potential overbought condition and a reversal to the downside.
Customization: Adjust overboughtLevel and oversoldLevel to fine-tune sensitivity. Lower timeframes may benefit from tighter levels (e.g., 20 for oversold, 80 for overbought), while higher timeframes can use extreme levels (e.g., 1 and 99) for stronger reversals.
Timeframe Considerations
Higher Timeframes (Recommended): The indicator is optimized for higher timeframes (e.g., 1H, 4H, Daily) due to its reliance on predictive ranges and smoothed momentum, which perform best with less market noise. These timeframes typically yield more reliable reversal signals.
Lower Timeframes: The indicator can be used on lower timeframes (e.g., 5M, 15M), but signals may be noisier and require additional confirmation (e.g., from price action or other indicators). Extensive backtesting and parameter optimization (e.g., adjusting crsiLength, maLength, or mult) are recommended for lower timeframes.
Inputs
Contrarian RSI Length (crsiLength): Length for RSI momentum calculation (default: 5).
RSI MA Length (maLength): Length of the moving average applied to the RSI (default: 1, effectively no MA).
MA Type (maType): Choose from SMA, EMA, WMA, SMMA, or VWMA (default: SMA).
Overbought Level (overboughtLevel): Upper threshold for exit signals (default: 99).
Oversold Level (oversoldLevel): Lower threshold for entry signals (default: 1).
Plot Signals on Main Chart (plotOnChart): Toggle to display signals on the price chart or the indicator panel (default: false).
Plotted on Lower:
Plotted on Chart:
5 Levels Length (length5Levels): Length for predictive range calculation (default: 200).
Factor (mult): ATR multiplier for predictive ranges (default: 6.0).
5 Levels Timeframe (tf5Levels): Timeframe for predictive range calculation (default: chart timeframe).
Visuals
Contrarian RSI MA: Plotted as a yellow line, representing the smoothed Contrarian RSI with the applied moving average.
Overbought/Oversold Lines: Red line for overbought (default: 99) and green line for oversold (default: 1).
Signals: Blue circles for long entries, white circles for long exits. Signals can be plotted on the main chart (plotOnChart = true) or the indicator panel (plotOnChart = false).
Usage Notes
Use the indicator in conjunction with other tools (e.g., support/resistance, trendlines, or volume) to confirm signals.
Test extensively on your chosen timeframe and asset to optimize parameters like crsiLength, maLength, and mult.
Be cautious with lower timeframes, as false signals may occur due to market noise.
The indicator is designed for contrarian strategies, so it works best in markets with clear reversal patterns.

Quantum Shift [MOT]🔷 Quantum Shift — Multi-Timeframe Reversal System with EMA-Based Structure Mapping
Quantum Shift is a multi-timeframe trading system designed to help traders identify high-probability reversal zones, breakout continuations, and trend shifts using a combination of real-time signal detection and structural level plotting.
This tool is built for precision execution — especially for traders working on futures markets, indices, and high-frequency assets using 30-second, 1-minute, and 5-minute charts.
Rather than relying on traditional lagging methods, Quantum Shift combines exponential moving averages, volume-triggered reversal candles, and dynamic structure logic to help you interpret market changes with greater clarity and confluence.
________________________________________
🔍 What Does It Do?
Quantum Shift continuously monitors price action and trend pressure across multiple timeframes. When the system detects that the current price behavior has reversed direction and aligns across multiple perspectives, it triggers an actionable visual signal. These signals are plotted on the chart with entry zones, optional stop levels, and color-coded background clouds to represent broader trend flow.
________________________________________
🧠 Core Features & How They Work
________________________________________
✅ 1. Multi-Timeframe Reversal Signals
At the heart of the script is a custom-built engine that detects momentum reversals using:
Reversal candles (Blue for bullish setups, Purple for bearish setups)
Price relationship to exponential moving averages
Agreement across multiple timeframes (typically current, lower, and higher)
This triple-confirmation approach filters out low-conviction setups and focuses on structural shifts that are likely to result in a directional move.
📸 Image: A blue candle signal forming on a 1-minute chart with green background cloud.
________________________________________
✅ 2. EMA-Based Support & Resistance Plotting
When a significant crossover occurs between two exponential moving averages, Quantum Shift automatically plots a horizontal level at the crossover price. These levels are interpreted as dynamic support or resistance zones, based on the direction of the signal.
Bullish EMA crossover → support level is plotted
Bearish EMA crossover → resistance level is plotted
These levels appear on 1-minute and 5-minute charts, and remain until they are invalidated by price
If price breaks back through the level in the opposite direction, it is automatically removed
📸 Image: Dynamic support and resistance lines in action — dashed lines represent 1-minute levels, while solid lines indicate 5-minute levels.
________________________________________
✅ 3. Trend Clouds
Quantum Shift overlays the chart with trend clouds that respond to directional pressure in real time. These zones are calculated using multi-tiered Supertrend logic and provide an at-a-glance way to:
Confirm broader trend bias
Avoid entering against strong directional moves
Visually align entry signals with the current market regime
📸 Image: Background fill transitioning from red to green, with signal appearing shortly after.
________________________________________
✅ 4. Volume & Risk Filters
To enhance quality and reduce noise, Quantum Shift includes:
Volume spike filtering — signals require above-average volume (configurable)
Stop range limitation — filters out setups with excessive risk
Chop zone detection — suppresses signals in sideways markets
These filters can be toggled and adjusted to suit different strategies and risk profiles.
📸 Image: All possible signal filters in the settings
________________________________________
✅ 5. Smart Entry Labeling & Dynamic Stop Loss
Upon confirmation of a valid reversal signal:
The script plots a Buy or Sell label at the entry candle
A dynamic stop-loss level is plotted below/above the reversal point
Alerts can be triggered based on:
Initial candle formation
Breakout of the trigger candle
Confluence of trend filters and volume
📸 Image: A “Sell” label and dynamic stop plotted above purple reversal candle.
________________________________________
✅ 6. Multi-Timeframe Trend Table
The live dashboard provides a simplified view of trend alignment and recent signals across timeframes:
Lower timeframe trend state
Higher timeframe trend state
Last signal candle type
Timeframe labels for clarity
This allows traders to confirm confluence without switching between charts.
📸 Image: Trend table showing last trend and candle state on HTF and LTF

Universal Sentiment Oscillator with Trade RecommendationsUniversal Sentiment Oscillator & Strategy Guide
Summary
This all-in-one indicator is designed to be a comprehensive co-pilot for your trading journey. It moves beyond simple buy/sell signals by analyzing the underlying market sentiment and providing a dynamic, risk-assessed guide of potential trading strategies. Whether you're a novice learning the ropes or an expert seeking confirmation, this tool provides a structured framework for making smarter, more informed decisions in stocks, options, and futures.
How It Works
The core of the indicator is the Sentiment Oscillator, which calculates a score from -5 (Extremely Bearish) to +5 (Extremely Bullish) on every bar. This isn't just a single measurement; it's a weighted aggregate of several key technical conditions:
Trend Analysis: Price position relative to the 20, 50, and 200 EMAs.
Momentum Analysis: The current RSI value.
Hybrid Analysis: The state of the MACD and its signal line.
These factors are intelligently combined and normalized to produce a single, intuitive sentiment score, giving you an at-a-glance understanding of the market's pulse.
Core Features
Dynamic Trade Recommendation Table:
The informational heart of the indicator. This on-chart table provides a list of potential trades perfectly aligned with the current sentiment score.
Risk-Ranked Strategies:
All suggested trades are logically ordered by risk, helping you quickly identify strategies that match your comfort level.
Adjusted Trade Suggestions:
The indicator analyzes sentiment momentum (the score vs. its signal line) to provide proactive, forward-looking trade ideas based on where the market might be heading next.
Customizable Trading Styles:
Tell the indicator if you are a Conservative, Neutral, or Aggressive trader, and the "Adjusted Trade Suggestion" will automatically tailor its recommendations to your personal risk preference.
Context-Aware Futures Mode:
When viewing a futures contract, enable this mode to switch all recommendations from stock/options to futures-specific actions (e.g., "Cautious Long," "Monitor Range").
Predictive Sentiment Cone:
Visualize the potential short-term path of sentiment based on current momentum, helping you anticipate future conditions.
Fully Customizable:
Every parameter—from EMA lengths to trade filters—can be adjusted, allowing you to fine-tune the indicator to your exact specifications.
How to Use This Indicator
This tool is flexible and can be integrated into many trading systems. Here is a powerful, professional approach:
Top-Down Analysis (for Swing or Position Trading):
Establish the Trend: Start on the higher timeframes (Monthly, Weekly, Daily). Use the oscillator's color and score to define the dominant, long-term market sentiment. You only want to look for trades that align with this macro trend.
Refine the Entry: Drop down to the medium timeframes (4-Hour, 1-Hour). Wait for the sentiment on these charts to come into alignment with the higher-timeframe trend. This pullback or consolidation is your "zone of interest."
Pinpoint the Execution: Move to a lower timeframe (e.g., 15-Minute). Use the Adjusted Trade Suggestion and Sentiment Momentum to find a precise entry as momentum begins to shift back in the direction of the primary trend. You can set alerts on the oscillator's zero-line for early warnings of a sentiment shift.
As a Confirmation Tool: If you have an existing trade idea, use the indicator to validate it. Does the sentiment score align with your bullish or bearish thesis? Does the momentum confirm that now is a good time to enter?
As an Idea Generation Tool: Unsure what to trade? Browse different assets and let the indicator's "Primary Trades" and "Adjusted Trade Suggestion" present you with a list of risk-assessed ideas that you can then investigate further.
Disclaimer: This is an analysis tool and should not be considered financial advice. All forms of trading involve substantial risk. You should not trade with money you cannot afford to lose. Always perform your own due diligence and use this indicator as one component of a complete trading plan.
Pineify Signals and OverlaysIndicator Theoretical Basis
Pineify Signals and Overlays is an invite-only trend-following and reversal-detection toolkit that fuses four well-known concepts— Dow-Theory trend phases , a multi-pair EMA cloud, QQE momentum, and ATR-based risk management—into a single, weight-balanced engine. An optional multi-time-frame (MTF) filter aligns lower-time-frame signals with higher-time-frame structure, helping traders avoid counter-trend setups. All components can be toggled from the settings panel, and a beginner “One-Click” preset loads a conservative profile out of the box.
Why it’s a single script: The algorithm scores every bar on three orthogonal axes—trend, momentum, and volatility—then issues context-aware arrows and coloured clouds only when the axes agree within user-defined tolerances. This inter-locking logic cannot be reproduced by simply stacking independent indicators on a chart, hence the need for an integrated implementation.
Trend Confirmation
Trend Confirmation: This indicator presents two types of market trends: the primary trend and the secondary trend. The primary trend is the long - term direction of the market and can last for days or months; the secondary trend is the adjustment phase within the primary trend.
This indicator uses the EMA (Exponential Moving Average) and visualizes the trend phases through color filling. The judgment of the trend is that blue plus green indicates a bullish trend, and yellow plus red indicates a bearish trend.
The primary trend of this indicator is visualized by two sets of moving averages through color filling. These two sets of moving averages are used to describe the short - term and long - term trends in the market.
The short - period moving averages and the long - period moving averages each consist of 4 moving averages, with a total of 8 moving averages, representing the short - term fluctuations and trends of the market.
Trend Persistence: Once the primary trend is formed, it will persist for a period of time. This indicator judges based on the Dow Theory. Short - term market fluctuations do not necessarily reflect changes in the primary trend. Therefore, the judgment direction of the primary trend is visualized through color.
The Signals of Buying, Selling and Closing
In the primary trend, we can see signals of trend reversal. This indicator incorporates the "Consecutive Candles". The indicator mainly identifies the overbought or oversold state of the market through a series of consecutive conditions, so as to predict the reversal point. The core of this indicator is to identify a series of consecutive price movements in the market trend and determine whether the market is about to reverse based on this sequence. We visualize the turning points through buy and sell signals.
The trend confirmation system utilizes four pairs of Exponential Moving Averages (EMAs) creating dynamic cloud formations that visualize market direction. Short-period EMAs (5, 8, 20, 34) interact with longer-period EMAs (9, 13, 21, 50) to generate color-coded trend clouds . Blue and green clouds indicate bullish conditions, while yellow and red clouds signal bearish trends, providing immediate visual trend identification.
The presentation of buying and selling points, namely "Quantitative Qualitative Estimation", is a technical indicator that combines the concepts of the Relative Strength Index (RSI) and moving averages. It is used to evaluate market trends, overbought and oversold conditions, as well as potential trend reversal points. The oscillator has a relatively long smoothing period, making the indicator relatively stable, thus enabling the visualization of buy + and sell + signals for trading.
ATR Stop - Loss Line
ATR (Average True Range) is an indicator for measuring market volatility. By using the ATR value to set the stop - loss distance, the stop - loss level can be automatically adjusted according to market volatility, making the stop - loss more flexible.
Core principle
Trend-Cloud Engine
EMA Pairs (5, 8, 20, 34 vs 9, 13, 21, 50)—Two four-EMA sets form “fast” and “slow” envelopes. When the volume-weighted mean of the fast set sits above the slow set and both slopes are positive, the bar is tagged primary bullish; the inverse tags primary bearish. Cloud colours (blue/green vs yellow/red) mirror Dow Theory’s primary/secondary trend hierarchy.
Momentum & Exhaustion Layer
QQE Oscillator (RSI 14, factor 4.238) detects momentum extremes and smooths noise more than a raw RSI, making it better suited for multi-time-frame use.
Consecutive-Candle Counter (default 8) highlights potential exhaustion after extended unidirectional moves; reversal symbols appear only if QQE divergence also exists.
Volatility-Adjusted Risk Line
ATR Trailing Stop (ATR 21, dynamic multiplier) expands in high volatility and tightens in low volatility, offering an adaptive exit reference rather than a fixed-tick stop.
Multi-Time-Frame Confirmation
The script automatically chooses a higher aggregation (e.g., 4 × the chart timeframe) and requires primary-trend agreement before issuing “Long ▲+” or “Short ▼+” confirmations. This guards against false signals during counter-trend rebounds.
Recommended parameters
RSI Length: 14 (QQE calculation base)
QQE Factor: 4.238 (Fibonacci-based multiplier)
ATR Period: 21 (volatility measurement)
EMA Lengths: Configurable short (5,8,20,34) and long (9,13,21,50) periods
Consecutive Candles: Selectable count (8)
Multi-timeframe Filter: Filter is enabled by default, resulting in more accurate signals.
Filters
The multi-timeframe filter enhances signal reliability by confirming trends across higher timeframes. This prevents counter-trend trades by ensuring alignment between current chart timeframe and broader market direction. The filter automatically calculates appropriate higher timeframes for trend confirmation.
Signals & Alerts
The indicator system exports multiple alert signals, and you can easily alert for any signal.
Up Trend : Primary long signal appears
Long - ▲ : Buy signal appears
Long - ▲+ : Confirmation buy signal appears
Long - ● : Primary reversal signal appears
Long - ☓ : Secondary reversal signal appears
Down Trend : Primary short signal appears
Short - ▼ : Sell signal appears
Short - ▼+ : Confirmation sell signal appears
Short - ● : Primary reversal signal appears
Short - ☓ : Secondary reversal signal appears
Originality & Value for Traders
Integrated scoring logic ensures signals fire only when trend, momentum, and volatility metrics corroborate, reducing “indicator conflict”.
Auto-computed MTF pairs mean no manual timeframe juggling.
Weight-balanced QQE/EMA blend creates smoother trend clouds than standard MA crosses, yet remains more responsive than Keltner or Donchian approaches.
One-click beginner profile plus full parameter access supports both novice and advanced users.

Trend Gauge [BullByte]Trend Gauge
Summary
A multi-factor trend detection indicator that aggregates EMA alignment, VWMA momentum scaling, volume spikes, ATR breakout strength, higher-timeframe confirmation, ADX-based regime filtering, and RSI pivot-divergence penalty into one normalized trend score. It also provides a confidence meter, a Δ Score momentum histogram, divergence highlights, and a compact, scalable dashboard for at-a-glance status.
________________________________________
## 1. Purpose of the Indicator
Why this was built
Traders often monitor several indicators in parallel - EMAs, volume signals, volatility breakouts, higher-timeframe trends, ADX readings, divergence alerts, etc., which can be cumbersome and sometimes contradictory. The “Trend Gauge” indicator was created to consolidate these complementary checks into a single, normalized score that reflects the prevailing market bias (bullish, bearish, or neutral) and its strength. By combining multiple inputs with an adaptive regime filter, scaling contributions by magnitude, and penalizing weakening signals (divergence), this tool aims to reduce noise, highlight genuine trend opportunities, and warn when momentum fades.
Key Design Goals
Signal Aggregation
Merged trend-following signals (EMA crossover, ATR breakout, higher-timeframe confirmation) and momentum signals (VWMA thrust, volume spikes) into a unified score that reflects directional bias more holistically.
Market Regime Awareness
Implemented an ADX-style filter to distinguish between trending and ranging markets, reducing the influence of trend signals during sideways phases to avoid false breakouts.
Magnitude-Based Scaling
Replaced binary contributions with scaled inputs: VWMA thrust and ATR breakout are weighted relative to recent averages, allowing for more nuanced score adjustments based on signal strength.
Momentum Divergence Penalty
Integrated pivot-based RSI divergence detection to slightly reduce the overall score when early signs of momentum weakening are detected, improving risk-awareness in entries.
Confidence Transparency
Added a live confidence metric that shows what percentage of enabled sub-indicators currently agree with the overall bias, making the scoring system more interpretable.
Momentum Acceleration Visualization
Plotted the change in score (Δ Score) as a histogram bar-to-bar, highlighting whether momentum is increasing, flattening, or reversing, aiding in more timely decision-making.
Compact Informational Dashboard
Presented a clean, scalable dashboard that displays each component’s status, the final score, confidence %, detected regime (Trending/Ranging), and a labeled strength gauge for quick visual assessment.
________________________________________
## 2. Why a Trader Should Use It
Main benefits and use cases
1. Unified View: Rather than juggling multiple windows or panels, this indicator delivers a single score synthesizing diverse signals.
2. Regime Filtering: In ranging markets, trend signals often generate false entries. The ADX-based regime filter automatically down-weights trend-following components, helping you avoid chasing false breakouts.
3. Nuanced Momentum & Volatility: VWMA and ATR breakout contributions are normalized by recent averages, so strong moves register strongly while smaller fluctuations are de-emphasized.
4. Early Warning of Weakening: Pivot-based RSI divergence is detected and used to slightly reduce the score when price/momentum diverges, giving a cautionary signal before a full reversal.
5. Confidence Meter: See at a glance how many sub-indicators align with the aggregated bias (e.g., “80% confidence” means 4 out of 5 components agree ). This transparency avoids black-box decisions.
6. Trend Acceleration/Deceleration View: The Δ Score histogram visualizes whether the aggregated score is rising (accelerating trend) or falling (momentum fading), supplementing the main oscillator.
7. Compact Dashboard: A corner table lists each check’s status (“Bull”, “Bear”, “Flat” or “Disabled”), plus overall Score, Confidence %, Regime, Trend Strength label, and a gauge bar. Users can scale text size (Normal, Small, Tiny) without removing elements, so the full picture remains visible even in compact layouts.
8. Customizable & Transparent: All components can be enabled/disabled and parameterized (lengths, thresholds, weights). The full Pine code is open and well-commented, letting users inspect or adapt the logic.
9. Alert-ready: Built-in alert conditions fire when the score crosses weak thresholds to bullish/bearish or returns to neutral, enabling timely notifications.
________________________________________
## 3. Component Rationale (“Why These Specific Indicators?”)
Each sub-component was chosen because it adds complementary information about trend or momentum:
1. EMA Cross
o Basic trend measure: compares a faster EMA vs. a slower EMA. Quickly reflects trend shifts but by itself can whipsaw in sideways markets.
2. VWMA Momentum
o Volume-weighted moving average change indicates momentum with volume context. By normalizing (dividing by a recent average absolute change), we capture the strength of momentum relative to recent history. This scaling prevents tiny moves from dominating and highlights genuinely strong momentum.
3. Volume Spikes
o Sudden jumps in volume combined with price movement often accompany stronger moves or reversals. A binary detection (+1 for bullish spike, -1 for bearish spike) flags high-conviction bars.
4. ATR Breakout
o Detects price breaking beyond recent highs/lows by a multiple of ATR. Measures breakout strength by how far beyond the threshold price moves relative to ATR, capped to avoid extreme outliers. This gives a volatility-contextual trend signal.
5. Higher-Timeframe EMA Alignment
o Confirms whether the shorter-term trend aligns with a higher timeframe trend. Uses request.security with lookahead_off to avoid future data. When multiple timeframes agree, confidence in direction increases.
6. ADX Regime Filter (Manual Calculation)
o Computes directional movement (+DM/–DM), smoothes via RMA, computes DI+ and DI–, then a DX and ADX-like value. If ADX ≥ threshold, market is “Trending” and trend components carry full weight; if ADX < threshold, “Ranging” mode applies a configurable weight multiplier (e.g., 0.5) to trend-based contributions, reducing false signals in sideways conditions. Volume spikes remain binary (optional behavior; can be adjusted if desired).
7. RSI Pivot-Divergence Penalty
o Uses ta.pivothigh / ta.pivotlow with a lookback to detect pivot highs/lows on price and corresponding RSI values. When price makes a higher high but RSI makes a lower high (bearish divergence), or price makes a lower low but RSI makes a higher low (bullish divergence), a divergence signal is set. Rather than flipping the trend outright, the indicator subtracts (or adds) a small penalty (configurable) from the aggregated score if it would weaken the current bias. This subtle adjustment warns of weakening momentum without overreacting to noise.
8. Confidence Meter
o Counts how many enabled components currently agree in direction with the aggregated score (i.e., component sign × score sign > 0). Displays this as a percentage. A high percentage indicates strong corroboration; a low percentage warns of mixed signals.
9. Δ Score Momentum View
o Plots the bar-to-bar change in the aggregated score (delta_score = score - score ) as a histogram. When positive, bars are drawn in green above zero; when negative, bars are drawn in red below zero. This reveals acceleration (rising Δ) or deceleration (falling Δ), supplementing the main oscillator.
10. Dashboard
• A table in the indicator pane’s top-right with 11 rows:
1. EMA Cross status
2. VWMA Momentum status
3. Volume Spike status
4. ATR Breakout status
5. Higher-Timeframe Trend status
6. Score (numeric)
7. Confidence %
8. Regime (“Trending” or “Ranging”)
9. Trend Strength label (e.g., “Weak Bullish Trend”, “Strong Bearish Trend”)
10. Gauge bar visually representing score magnitude
• All rows always present; size_opt (Normal, Small, Tiny) only changes text size via text_size, not which elements appear. This ensures full transparency.
________________________________________
## 4. What Makes This Indicator Stand Out
• Regime-Weighted Multi-Factor Score: Trend and momentum signals are adaptively weighted by market regime (trending vs. ranging) , reducing false signals.
• Magnitude Scaling: VWMA and ATR breakout contributions are normalized by recent average momentum or ATR, giving finer gradation compared to simple ±1.
• Integrated Divergence Penalty: Divergence directly adjusts the aggregated score rather than appearing as a separate subplot; this influences alerts and trend labeling in real time.
• Confidence Meter: Shows the percentage of sub-signals in agreement, providing transparency and preventing blind trust in a single metric.
• Δ Score Histogram Momentum View: A histogram highlights acceleration or deceleration of the aggregated trend score, helping detect shifts early.
• Flexible Dashboard: Always-visible component statuses and summary metrics in one place; text size scaling keeps the full picture available in cramped layouts.
• Lookahead-Safe HTF Confirmation: Uses lookahead_off so no future data is accessed from higher timeframes, avoiding repaint bias.
• Repaint Transparency: Divergence detection uses pivot functions that inherently confirm only after lookback bars; description documents this lag so users understand how and when divergence labels appear.
• Open-Source & Educational: Full, well-commented Pine v6 code is provided; users can learn from its structure: manual ADX computation, conditional plotting with series = show ? value : na, efficient use of table.new in barstate.islast, and grouped inputs with tooltips.
• Compliance-Conscious: All plots have descriptive titles; inputs use clear names; no unnamed generic “Plot” entries; manual ADX uses RMA; all request.security calls use lookahead_off. Code comments mention repaint behavior and limitations.

## 5. Recommended Timeframes & Tuning
• Any Timeframe: The indicator works on small (e.g., 1m) to large (daily, weekly) timeframes. However:
o On very low timeframes (<1m or tick charts), noise may produce frequent whipsaws. Consider increasing smoothing lengths, disabling certain components (e.g., volume spike if volume data noisy), or using a larger pivot lookback for divergence.
o On higher timeframes (daily, weekly), consider longer lookbacks for ATR breakout or divergence, and set Higher-Timeframe trend appropriately (e.g., 4H HTF when on 5 Min chart).
• Defaults & Experimentation: Default input values are chosen to be balanced for many liquid markets. Users should test with replay or historical analysis on their symbol/timeframe and adjust:
o ADX threshold (e.g., 20–30) based on instrument volatility.
o VWMA and ATR scaling lengths to match average volatility cycles.
o Pivot lookback for divergence: shorter for faster markets, longer for slower ones.
• Combining with Other Analysis: Use in conjunction with price action, support/resistance, candlestick patterns, order flow, or other tools as desired. The aggregated score and alerts can guide attention but should not be the sole decision-factor.

## 6. How Scoring and Logic Works (Step-by-Step)
1. Compute Sub-Scores
o EMA Cross: Evaluate fast EMA > slow EMA ? +1 : fast EMA < slow EMA ? -1 : 0.
o VWMA Momentum: Calculate vwma = ta.vwma(close, length), then vwma_mom = vwma - vwma . Normalize: divide by recent average absolute momentum (e.g., ta.sma(abs(vwma_mom), lookback)), clip to .
o Volume Spike: Compute vol_SMA = ta.sma(volume, len). If volume > vol_SMA * multiplier AND price moved up ≥ threshold%, assign +1; if moved down ≥ threshold%, assign -1; else 0.
o ATR Breakout: Determine recent high/low over lookback. If close > high + ATR*mult, compute distance = close - (high + ATR*mult), normalize by ATR, cap at a configured maximum. Assign positive contribution. Similarly for bearish breakout below low.
o Higher-Timeframe Trend: Use request.security(..., lookahead=barmerge.lookahead_off) to fetch HTF EMAs; assign +1 or -1 based on alignment.
2. ADX Regime Weighting
o Compute manual ADX: directional movements (+DM, –DM), smoothed via RMA, DI+ and DI–, then DX and ADX via RMA. If ADX ≥ threshold, market is considered “Trending”; otherwise “Ranging.”
o If trending, trend-based contributions (EMA, VWMA, ATR, HTF) use full weight = 1.0. If ranging, use weight = ranging_weight (e.g., 0.5) to down-weight them. Volume spike stays binary ±1 (optional to change if desired).
3. Aggregate Raw Score
o Sum weighted contributions of all enabled components. Count the number of enabled components; if zero, default count = 1 to avoid division by zero.
4. Divergence Penalty
o Detect pivot highs/lows on price and corresponding RSI values, using a lookback. When price and RSI diverge (bearish or bullish divergence), check if current raw score is in the opposing direction:
If bearish divergence (price higher high, RSI lower high) and raw score currently positive, subtract a penalty (e.g., 0.5).
If bullish divergence (price lower low, RSI higher low) and raw score currently negative, add a penalty.
o This reduces score magnitude to reflect weakening momentum, without flipping the trend outright.
5. Normalize and Smooth
o Normalized score = (raw_score / number_of_enabled_components) * 100. This yields a roughly range.
o Optional EMA smoothing of this normalized score to reduce noise.
6. Interpretation
o Sign: >0 = net bullish bias; <0 = net bearish bias; near zero = neutral.
o Magnitude Zones: Compare |score| to thresholds (Weak, Medium, Strong) to label trend strength (e.g., “Weak Bullish Trend”, “Medium Bearish Trend”, “Strong Bullish Trend”).
o Δ Score Histogram: The histogram bars from zero show change from previous bar’s score; positive bars indicate acceleration, negative bars indicate deceleration.
o Confidence: Percentage of sub-indicators aligned with the score’s sign.
o Regime: Indicates whether trend-based signals are fully weighted or down-weighted.

## 7. Oscillator Plot & Visualization: How to Read It
Main Score Line & Area
The oscillator plots the aggregated score as a line, with colored fill: green above zero for bullish area, red below zero for bearish area. Horizontal reference lines at ±Weak, ±Medium, and ±Strong thresholds mark zones: crossing above +Weak suggests beginning of bullish bias, above +Medium for moderate strength, above +Strong for strong trend; similarly for bearish below negative thresholds.
Δ Score Histogram
If enabled, a histogram shows score - score . When positive, bars appear in green above zero, indicating accelerating bullish momentum; when negative, bars appear in red below zero, indicating decelerating or reversing momentum. The height of each bar reflects the magnitude of change in the aggregated score from the prior bar.
Divergence Highlight Fill
If enabled, when a pivot-based divergence is confirmed:
• Bullish Divergence : fill the area below zero down to –Weak threshold in green, signaling potential reversal from bearish to bullish.
• Bearish Divergence : fill the area above zero up to +Weak threshold in red, signaling potential reversal from bullish to bearish.
These fills appear with a lag equal to pivot lookback (the number of bars needed to confirm the pivot). They do not repaint after confirmation, but users must understand this lag.
Trend Direction Label
When score crosses above or below the Weak threshold, a small label appears near the score line reading “Bullish” or “Bearish.” If the score returns within ±Weak, the label “Neutral” appears. This helps quickly identify shifts at the moment they occur.
Dashboard Panel
In the indicator pane’s top-right, a table shows:
1. EMA Cross status: “Bull”, “Bear”, “Flat”, or “Disabled”
2. VWMA Momentum status: similarly
3. Volume Spike status: “Bull”, “Bear”, “No”, or “Disabled”
4. ATR Breakout status: “Bull”, “Bear”, “No”, or “Disabled”
5. Higher-Timeframe Trend status: “Bull”, “Bear”, “Flat”, or “Disabled”
6. Score: numeric value (rounded)
7. Confidence: e.g., “80%” (colored: green for high, amber for medium, red for low)
8. Regime: “Trending” or “Ranging” (colored accordingly)
9. Trend Strength: textual label based on magnitude (e.g., “Medium Bullish Trend”)
10. Gauge: a bar of blocks representing |score|/100
All rows remain visible at all times; changing Dashboard Size only scales text size (Normal, Small, Tiny).

## 8. Example Usage (Illustrative Scenario)
Example: BTCUSD 5 Min
1. Setup: Add “Trend Gauge ” to your BTCUSD 5 Min chart. Defaults: EMAs (8/21), VWMA 14 with lookback 3, volume spike settings, ATR breakout 14/5, HTF = 5m (or adjust to 4H if preferred), ADX threshold 25, ranging weight 0.5, divergence RSI length 14 pivot lookback 5, penalty 0.5, smoothing length 3, thresholds Weak=20, Medium=50, Strong=80. Dashboard Size = Small.
2. Trend Onset: At some point, price breaks above recent high by ATR multiple, volume spikes upward, faster EMA crosses above slower EMA, HTF EMA also bullish, and ADX (manual) ≥ threshold → aggregated score rises above +20 (Weak threshold) into +Medium zone. Dashboard shows “Bull” for EMA, VWMA, Vol Spike, ATR, HTF; Score ~+60–+70; Confidence ~100%; Regime “Trending”; Trend Strength “Medium Bullish Trend”; Gauge ~6–7 blocks. Δ Score histogram bars are green and rising, indicating accelerating bullish momentum. Trader notes the alignment.
3. Divergence Warning: Later, price makes a slightly higher high but RSI fails to confirm (lower RSI high). Pivot lookback completes; the indicator highlights a bearish divergence fill above zero and subtracts a small penalty from the score, causing score to stall or retrace slightly. Dashboard still bullish but score dips toward +Weak. This warns the trader to tighten stops or take partial profits.
4. Trend Weakens: Score eventually crosses below +Weak back into neutral; a “Neutral” label appears, and a “Neutral Trend” alert fires if enabled. Trader exits or avoids new long entries. If score subsequently crosses below –Weak, a “Bearish” label and alert occur.
5. Customization: If the trader finds VWMA noise too frequent on this instrument, they may disable VWMA or increase lookback. If ATR breakouts are too rare, adjust ATR length or multiplier. If ADX threshold seems off, tune threshold. All these adjustments are explained in Inputs section.
6. Visualization: The screenshot shows the main score oscillator with colored areas, reference lines at ±20/50/80, Δ Score histogram bars below/above zero, divergence fill highlighting potential reversal, and the dashboard table in the top-right.

## 10. Limitations, Repaint Notes, and Disclaimers
10.1. Repaint & Lag Considerations
• Pivot-Based Divergence Lag: The divergence detection uses ta.pivothigh / ta.pivotlow with a specified lookback. By design, a pivot is only confirmed after the lookback number of bars. As a result:
o Divergence labels or fills appear with a delay equal to the pivot lookback.
o Once the pivot is confirmed and the divergence is detected, the fill/label does not repaint thereafter, but you must understand and accept this lag.
o Users should not treat divergence highlights as predictive signals without additional confirmation, because they appear after the pivot has fully formed.
• Higher-Timeframe EMA Alignment: Uses request.security(..., lookahead=barmerge.lookahead_off), so no future data from the higher timeframe is used. This avoids lookahead bias and ensures signals are based only on completed higher-timeframe bars.
• No Future Data: All calculations are designed to avoid using future information. For example, manual ADX uses RMA on past data; security calls use lookahead_off.
10.2. Market & Noise Considerations
• In very choppy or low-liquidity markets, some components (e.g., volume spikes or VWMA momentum) may be noisy. Users can disable or adjust those components’ parameters.
• On extremely low timeframes, noise may dominate; consider smoothing lengths or disabling certain features.
• On very high timeframes, pivots and breakouts occur less frequently; adjust lookbacks accordingly to avoid sparse signals.
10.3. Not a Standalone Trading System
• This is an indicator, not a complete trading strategy. It provides signals and context but does not manage entries, exits, position sizing, or risk management.
• Users must combine it with their own analysis, money management, and confirmations (e.g., price patterns, support/resistance, fundamental context).
• No guarantees: past behavior does not guarantee future performance.
