AlphaTrend - Medium Term Trend Probability Indicator on TOTALESWHAT IS ALPHATREND?
AlphaTrend is a consensus-based trend identification system that combines 7 independent trend detection methodologies into a single probability score. Designed for medium-term trading (days to weeks), it aggregates diverse analytical approaches—from volatility-adjusted moving averages to statistical oscillators—to determine directional bias with quantifiable confidence.
Unlike single-indicator systems prone to false signals during consolidation, AlphaTrend requires majority agreement across multiple uncorrelated methods before generating directional signals, significantly reducing whipsaws in choppy markets.
METHODOLOGY - THE 7-INDICATOR VOTING SYSTEM
Each indicator analyzes trend from a mathematically distinct perspective and casts a vote: +1 (bullish), -1 (bearish), or 0 (neutral). The average of all 7 votes creates the final probability score ranging from -1 (strong bearish) to +1 (strong bullish).
1. FLXWRT RMA (VOLATILITY-ADJUSTED BASELINE)
Method: RMA (Running Moving Average) with ATR-based dynamic bands
Calculation:
RMA = Running MA of price over 12 periods
ATR = Average True Range over 20 periods
Long Signal: Price > RMA + ATR
Short Signal: Price < RMA - ATR
Logic: Trend confirmed only when price breaks beyond volatility-adjusted boundaries, not just the moving average itself. This filters noise by requiring momentum sufficient to overcome recent volatility.
Why it works: Standard MA crossovers generate excessive false signals in ranging markets. Adding ATR bands ensures price has genuine directional momentum, not just minor fluctuations.
Settings:
RMA Length (12): Base trend smoothing
ATR Length (20): Volatility measurement period
2. BOOSTED MOVING AVERAGE (MOMENTUM-ENHANCED TREND)
Method: Double EMA with acceleration boost factor
Calculation:
EMA1 = EMA(close, length)
EMA2 = EMA(close, length/2) // Faster EMA
Boosted Value = EMA2 + sensitivity × (EMA2 - EMA1)
Final = EMA smoothing of Boosted Value
Logic: Amplifies the difference between fast and slow EMAs to emphasize trend momentum. The boost factor (1.3) accelerates response to directional moves while subsequent smoothing prevents over-reaction.
Why it works: Traditional MAs lag price action. The boost mechanism projects trend direction forward by amplifying the momentum differential between two EMAs, providing earlier signals without sacrificing reliability.
Settings:
Length (36): Base EMA period
Boost Factor (1.3): Momentum amplification multiplier
Originality: This is a proprietary enhancement to standard double EMA systems. Most indicators simply cross fast/slow EMAs; this one mathematically projects momentum trajectory.
3. HEIKIN ASHI TREND (T3-SMOOTHED CANDLES)
Method: Heikin Ashi candles with T3 exponential smoothing
Calculation:
Heikin Ashi candles = Smoothed OHLC transformation
T3 Smoothing = Triple-exponential smoothing (Tillson T3)
Signal: T3(HA_Open) crosses T3(HA_Close)
Logic: Heikin Ashi candles filter intrabar noise by averaging consecutive bars. T3 smoothing adds additional filtering using Tillson's generalized DEMA algorithm with custom volume factor.
Why it works: Regular candlesticks contain high-frequency noise. Heikin Ashi transformation creates smoother trends, and T3 smoothing eliminates remaining whipsaws while maintaining responsiveness. The T3 algorithm specifically addresses the lag-vs-smoothness tradeoff.
Settings:
T3 Length (13): Smoothing period
T3 Factor (0.3): Volume factor for T3 algorithm
Percent Squeeze (0.2): Sensitivity adjustment
Technical Note: T3 is superior to simple EMA smoothing because it applies the generalized DEMA formula recursively, reducing lag while maintaining smooth output.
4. VIISTOP (ATR-BASED TREND FILTER)
Method: Simple trend detection using price position vs smoothed baseline with ATR confirmation
Calculation:
Baseline = SMA(close, 16)
ATR = ATR(16)
Uptrend: Close > Baseline
Downtrend: Close < Baseline
Logic: The simplest component—pure price position relative to medium-term average. While basic, it provides a "sanity check" against over-optimized indicators.
Why it works: Sometimes the simplest approach is most robust. In strong trends, price consistently stays above/below its moving average. This indicator prevents the system from over-complicating obvious directional moves.
Settings:
Length (16): Baseline period
Multiplier (2.8): ATR scaling (not actively used in vote logic)
Purpose in Ensemble: Provides grounding in basic trend logic. Complex indicators can sometimes generate counterintuitive signals; ViiStop ensures the system stays aligned with fundamental price positioning.
5. NORMALIZED KAMA OSCILLATOR (ADAPTIVE EFFICIENCY-BASED TREND)
Method: Kaufman Adaptive Moving Average normalized to oscillator format
Calculation:
Efficiency Ratio = |Close - Close | / Sum(|Close - Close |, 8)
Smoothing Constant = ER × (Fast SC - Slow SC) + Slow SC
KAMA = Adaptive moving average using dynamic smoothing
Normalized = (KAMA - Lowest) / (Highest - Lowest) - 0.5
Logic: KAMA adjusts its smoothing speed based on market efficiency. In trending markets (high efficiency), it speeds up. In ranging markets (low efficiency), it slows down. Normalization converts absolute values to -0.5/+0.5 oscillator for consistent voting.
Why it works: Fixed-period moving averages perform poorly across varying market conditions. KAMA's adaptive nature makes it effective in both trending and choppy environments by automatically adjusting its responsiveness.
Settings:
Fast Period (9): Maximum responsiveness
Slow Period (21): Minimum responsiveness
ER Period (8): Efficiency calculation window
Normalization Lookback (35): Oscillator scaling period
Mathematical Significance: Kaufman's algorithm is one of the most sophisticated adaptive smoothing methods in technical analysis. The Efficiency Ratio mathematically quantifies trend strength vs noise.
6. LÉVY FLIGHT RSI (HEAVY-TAILED MOMENTUM)
Method: Modified RSI using Lévy distribution weighting for gains/losses
Calculation:
Weighted Gain = (Max(Price Change, 0))^Alpha
Weighted Loss = (-Min(Price Change, 0))^Alpha
RSI = 100 - (100 / (1 + RMA(Gain) / RMA(Loss)))
Centered RSI = RSI - 50
Logic: Standard RSI treats all price changes linearly. Lévy Flight RSI applies power-law weighting (Alpha = 1.5) to emphasize larger moves, modeling heavy-tailed distributions observed in real market data.
Why it works: Market returns exhibit "fat tails"—large moves occur more frequently than normal distribution predicts. Lévy distributions (Alpha between 1-2) better model this behavior. By weighting larger price changes more heavily, this RSI variant becomes more sensitive to genuine momentum shifts while filtering small noise.
Settings:
RSI Length (14): Standard period
Alpha (1.5): Lévy exponent (1=linear, 2=quadratic)
MA Length (12): Final smoothing
Originality: Standard RSI uses unweighted gains/losses. This implementation applies stochastic process theory (Lévy flights) from quantitative finance to create a momentum indicator more aligned with actual market behavior.
Mathematical Background: Lévy flights describe random walks with heavy-tailed step distributions, observed in financial markets, animal foraging patterns, and human mobility. Alpha=1.5 balances between normal distribution (Alpha=2) and Cauchy distribution (Alpha=1).
7. REGULARIZED-MA OSCILLATOR (Z-SCORED TREND DEVIATION)
Method: Moving average converted to z-score oscillator
Calculation:
MA = EMA(close, 19)
Mean = SMA(MA, 30)
Std Dev = Standard Deviation(MA, 30)
Z-Score = (MA - Mean) / Std Dev
Logic: Converts absolute MA values to statistical standard deviations from mean. Positive z-score = MA above its typical range (bullish), negative = below range (bearish).
Why it works: Raw moving averages don't indicate strength—a 50-day MA at $50k vs $60k has no contextual meaning. Z-scoring normalizes this to "how unusual is current MA level?" This makes signals comparable across different price levels and time periods.
Settings:
Length (19): Base MA period
Regularization Length (30): Statistical normalization window
Statistical Significance: Z-scores are standard in quantitative analysis. This indicator asks: "Is the current trend statistically significant or just random noise?"
AGGREGATION METHODOLOGY
Voting System:
Each indicator returns: +1 (bullish), -1 (bearish), or 0 (neutral)
Total Score = Sum of all 7 votes (-7 to +7)
Average Score = Total / 7 (-1.00 to +1.00)
Signal Generation:
Long Signal: Average > 0 (majority bullish)
Short Signal: Average < 0 (majority bearish)
Neutral: Average = 0 (perfect split or all neutral)
Why Equal Weighting:
Each indicator represents a fundamentally different analytical approach:
Volatility-adjusted (RMA, ViiStop)
Momentum-based (Boosted MA, Lévy RSI)
Adaptive smoothing (KAMA)
Statistical (MA Oscillator)
Noise-filtered (Heikin Ashi T3)
Equal weighting ensures no single methodology dominates. This diversification reduces bias and improves robustness across market conditions.
ORIGINALITY - WHY THIS COMBINATION WORKS
Traditional Multi-Indicator Approaches:
Combine similar indicators (multiple MAs, multiple oscillators)
Use arbitrary thresholds for each indicator
Don't normalize signals (hard to compare RSI to MACD)
Often just "if RSI > 70 AND MACD > 0 = buy"
AlphaTrend MTPI Innovations:
Methodological Diversity: Includes volatility-adaptive (RMA), momentum-enhanced (Boosted MA), efficiency-based (KAMA), heavy-tailed statistics (Lévy RSI), and smoothed candles (HA). No redundant indicators.
Binary Voting: Each indicator reduces to simple +1/-1/0 vote, making aggregation transparent and preventing any indicator from overwhelming the consensus.
Medium-Term Optimization: Parameter choices (12-36 period averages) specifically target multi-day to multi-week trends, not scalping or long-term positioning.
Advanced Mathematics: Incorporates Tillson T3, Kaufman Efficiency Ratio, Lévy distributions, and statistical z-scoring—not just basic MAs and RSIs.
No Overfit Risk: With 7 diverse components voting equally, the system can't overfit to any specific market regime. If trending markets favor KAMA, but choppy markets favor Boosted MA, the ensemble stays robust.
Why 7 Indicators, Not 3 or 10:
Fewer than 5: Insufficient diversification, single indicator failures impact results heavily
More than 9: Diminishing returns, redundancy increases, computational load grows
7 provides: Odd number (no ties), sufficient diversity, manageable complexity

IMPORTANT NOTES
Not a standalone strategy - Use with proper risk management
Requires clean data - Works best on liquid markets with tight spreads
Medium-term by design - Don't expect scalping signals
No magic - No indicator predicts the future; this shows current trend probability
Diversification within - The 7-component ensemble IS the diversification strategy
Not financial advice. This indicator identifies medium-term trend probability based on multi-component consensus. Past performance does not guarantee future results. Always use proper risk management and position sizing.
Probability
AlphaBTC - Long Term Trend Probability Indicator on BitcoinWHAT IS ALPHABTC?
AlphaBTC is a consensus-based long-term trend probability indicator designed specifically for Bitcoin and cryptocurrency markets. It combines 9 independent trend detection methodologies into a single probabilistic score ranging from -1 (strong bearish) to +1 (strong bullish). Unlike single-indicator systems that can produce frequent false signals, AlphaBTC requires agreement across multiple analytical frameworks before generating directional signals.
METHODOLOGY - THE 9-INDICATOR CONSENSUS MODEL
Each indicator analyzes trend from a different mathematical perspective, providing a binary vote: +1 (bullish), -1 (bearish), or 0 (neutral). The average of all 9 votes creates the final probability score.
1. AADTREND (Average Absolute Deviation Trend)
Method: Calculates average absolute deviation from a moving average using 7 different MA types (SMA, EMA, HMA, DEMA, TEMA, RMA, FRAMA)
Logic: Price crossovers above/below AAD-adjusted bands signal trend changes
Purpose: Adapts to varying market volatility conditions
2. GAUSSIAN SMOOTH TREND (GST)
Method: Multi-stage smoothing using DEMA → Gaussian Filter → SMMA → Standard Deviation bands
Logic: Long when price > (SMMA + SDmultiplier), Short when price < (SMMA - SDmultiplier)
Purpose: Removes high-frequency noise while preserving trend structure
3. RTI (RELATIVE TREND INDEX)
Method: Percentile-based ranking system comparing current price to historical upper/lower trend boundaries
Logic: Generates 0-100 index score; >80 = bullish, <20 = bearish
Purpose: Identifies price position within statistical distribution
4. HIGHEST-LOWEST DEVIATIONS TREND
Method: Dual moving average system (100/50 periods) with dynamic standard deviation bands
Logic: Compares highest and lowest boundaries from both MAs to determine trend extremes
Purpose: Identifies breakouts from multi-timeframe volatility envelopes
5. 25-75 PERCENTILE SUPERTREND
Method: Modified SuperTrend using 25th and 75th percentile bands instead of simple highs/lows
Logic: ATR-based trailing stop system anchored to percentile boundaries
Purpose: More stable trend following by filtering outlier price spikes
6. TS VOLATILITY-ADJUSTED EWMA
Method: Exponentially Weighted Moving Average with dynamic period adjustment based on ATR
Logic: Speeds up during high volatility, slows during low volatility
Purpose: Adaptive responsiveness to changing market conditions
7. NORMALIZED KAMA OSCILLATOR

Logic: Uses Efficiency Ratio to adjust smoothing constant; >0 = bullish, <0 = bearish
Purpose: Adapts to both trending and ranging markets automatically
8. EHLERS MESA ADAPTIVE MOVING AVERAGE (EMAMA)
Method: John Ehlers' MAMA/FAMA system using Hilbert Transform for cycle period detection
Logic: MAMA crossover FAMA = bullish, crossunder = bearish
Purpose: Advanced DSP-based trend detection with phase-based adaptation
9. EMA Z-SCORE
Method: Statistical z-score applied to EMA values over lookback period
Logic: >1.0 standard deviation = bullish, <0.0 = bearish
Purpose: Identifies statistically significant trend deviations
AGGREGATION METHODOLOGY

Markov Chain Regime & Next‑Bar Probability Forecast✨ What it is
A regime-aware, math-driven panel that forecasts the odds for the very next candle. It shows:
• P(next r > 0)
• P(next r > +θ)
• P(next r < −θ)
• A 4-bucket split of next-bar outcomes (>+θ | 0..+θ | −θ..0 | <−θ)
• Next-regime probabilities: Calm | Neutral | Volatile
🧠 Why the math is strong
• Markov regimes: Markets cluster in volatility “moods.” We learn a 3-state regime S∈{Calm, Neutral, Volatile} with a transition matrix A, where A = P(Sₜ₊₁=j | Sₜ=i).
• Condition on the future state: We estimate event odds given the next regime j—
q_pos(j)=P(rₜ₊₁>0 | Sₜ₊₁=j), q_gt(j)=P(rₜ₊₁>+θ | Sₜ₊₁=j), q_lt(j)=P(rₜ₊₁<−θ | Sₜ₊₁=j)—
and mix them with transitions from the current (or frozen) state sNow:
P(event) = Σⱼ A · q(event | j).
This mixture-of-regimes view (HMM-style one-step prediction) ties next-bar outcomes to where volatility is likely headed.
• Statistical hygiene: Laplace/Beta smoothing, minimum-sample gating, and unconditional fallbacks keep estimates stable. Heavy computations run on confirmed bars; “Freeze at close” avoids intrabar flicker.
📊 What each value means
• Regime label & background: 🟩 Calm, 🟧 Neutral, 🟥 Volatile — quick read of market context.
• P(next r > 0): Directional tilt for the very next bar.
• P(next r > +θ): Odds of an outsized positive move beyond θ.
• P(next r < −θ): Odds of an outsized negative move beyond −θ.
• Partition row: Distributes next-bar probability across four intuitive buckets; they ≈ sum to 100%.
• Next Regime Probs: Likelihood of switching to Calm/Neutral/Volatile on the next bar (row of A for the current/frozen state).
• Samples row: How many next-bar samples support each next-state estimate (a confidence cue).
• Smoothing α: The Laplace prior used to stabilize binary event rates.
⚙️ Inputs you control
• Returns: Log (default) or %
• Include Volume (z-score) + lookback
• Include Range (HL/PrevClose)
• Rolling window N (transitions & estimates)
• θ as percent (e.g., 0.5%)
• Freeze forecast at last close (recommended)
• Display toggles (plots, partition, samples)
🎯 How to use it
• Volatility awareness & sizing: Rising P(next regime = Volatile) → consider smaller size, wider stops, or skipping marginal entries.
• Breakout preparation: Elevated P(next r > +θ) highlights environments where range expansion is more likely; pair with your setup/trigger.
• Defense for mean-reversion: If P(next r < −θ) lifts while you’re late long (or P(next r > +θ) lifts while late short), tighten risk or wait for better context.
• Calibration tip: Start θ near your market’s typical bar size; adjust until “>+θ” flags truly meaningful moves for your timeframe.
📝 Method notes & limits
Activity features (|r|, volume z, range) are standardized; only positive z’s feed the composite activity score. Estimates adapt to instrument/timeframe; rare regimes or small windows increase variance (hence smoothing, sample gating, fallbacks). This is a context/forecast tool, not a standalone signal—combine with your entry/exit rules and risk management.
🧩 Strategies too
We also develop full strategy versions that use these probabilities for entries, filters, and position sizing. Like this publication if you’d like us to release the strategy edition next.

First Passage Time - Distribution AnalysisThe First Passage Time (FPT) Distribution Analysis indicator is a sophisticated probabilistic tool that answers one of the most critical questions in trading: "How long will it take for price to reach my target, and what are the odds of getting there first?"
Unlike traditional technical indicators that focus on what might happen, this indicator tells you when it's likely to happen.
Mathematical Foundation: First Passage Time Theory
What is First Passage Time?
First Passage Time (FPT) is a concept in stochastic processes that measures the time it takes for a random process to reach a specific threshold for the first time. Originally developed in physics and mathematics, FPT has applications in:
Quantitative Finance: Option pricing, risk management, and algorithmic trading
Neuroscience: Modeling neural firing patterns
Biology: Population dynamics and disease spread
Engineering: Reliability analysis and failure prediction
The Mathematics Behind It
This indicator uses Geometric Brownian Motion (GBM), the same stochastic model used in the Black-Scholes option pricing formula:
dS = μS dt + σS dW
Where:
S = Asset price
μ = Drift (trend component)
σ = Volatility (uncertainty component)
dW = Wiener process (random walk)
Through Monte Carlo simulation, the indicator runs 1,000+ price path simulations to statistically determine:
When each threshold (+X% or -X%) is likely to be hit
Which threshold is hit first (directional bias)
How often each scenario occurs (probability distribution)
🎯 How This Indicator Works
Core Algorithm Workflow:
Calculate Historical Statistics
Measures recent price volatility (standard deviation of log returns)
Calculates drift (average directional movement)
Annualizes these metrics for meaningful comparison
Run Monte Carlo Simulations
Generates 1,000+ random price paths based on historical behavior
Tracks when each path hits the upside (+X%) or downside (-X%) threshold
Records which threshold was hit first in each simulation
Aggregate Statistical Results
Calculates percentile distributions (10th, 25th, 50th, 75th, 90th)
Computes "first hit" probabilities (upside vs downside)
Determines average and median time-to-target
Visual Representation
Displays thresholds as horizontal lines
Shows gradient risk zones (purple-to-blue)
Provides comprehensive statistics table
📈 Use Cases
1. Options Trading
Selling Options: Determine if your strike price is likely to be hit before expiration
Buying Options: Estimate probability of reaching profit targets within your time window
Time Decay Management: Compare expected time-to-target vs theta decay
Example: You're considering selling a 30-day call option 5% out of the money. The indicator shows there's a 72% chance price hits +5% within 12 days. This tells you the trade has high assignment risk.
2. Swing Trading
Entry Timing: Wait for higher probability setups when directional bias is strong
Target Setting: Use median time-to-target to set realistic profit expectations
Stop Loss Placement: Understand probability of hitting your stop before target
Example: The indicator shows 85% upside probability with median time of 3.2 days. You can confidently enter long positions with appropriate position sizing.
3. Risk Management
Position Sizing: Larger positions when probability heavily favors one direction
Portfolio Allocation: Reduce exposure when probabilities are near 50/50 (high uncertainty)
Hedge Timing: Know when to add protective positions based on downside probability
Example: Indicator shows 55% upside vs 45% downside—nearly neutral. This signals high uncertainty, suggesting reduced position size or wait for better setup.
4. Market Regime Detection
Trending Markets: High directional bias (70%+ one direction)
Range-bound Markets: Balanced probabilities (45-55% both directions)
Volatility Regimes: Compare actual vs theoretical minimum time
Example: Consistent 90%+ bullish bias across multiple timeframes confirms strong uptrend—stay long and avoid counter-trend trades.
First Hit Rate (Most Important!)
Shows which threshold is likely to be hit FIRST:
Upside %: Probability of hitting upside target before downside
Downside %: Probability of hitting downside target before upside
These always sum to 100%
⚠️ Warning: If you see "Low Hit Rate" warning, increase this parameter!
Advanced Parameters
Drift Mode
Allows you to explore different scenarios:
Historical: Uses actual recent trend (default—most realistic)
Zero (Neutral): Assumes no trend, only volatility (symmetric probabilities)
50% Reduced: Dampens trend effect (conservative scenario)
Use Case: Switch to "Zero (Neutral)" to see what happens in a pure volatility environment, useful for range-bound markets.
Distribution Type
Percentile: Shows 10%, 25%, 50%, 75%, 90% levels (recommended for most users)
Sigma: Shows standard deviation levels (1σ, 2σ)—useful for statistical analysis
⚠️ Important Limitations & Best Practices
Limitations

Mean Reversion Probability Zones [BigBeluga]🔵 OVERVIEW
The Mean Reversion Probability Zones indicator measures the likelihood of price reverting back toward its mean . By analyzing oscillator dynamics (RSI, MFI, or Stochastic), it calculates probability zones both above and below the oscillator. These zones are visualized as histograms, colored regions on the main chart, and a compact dashboard, helping traders spot when the market is statistically stretched and more likely to revert.
🔵 CONCEPTS
Mean Reversion : The tendency of price to return to its average after significant extensions.
Oscillator-Based Analysis : Uses RSI, MFI, or Stochastic as the base signal for detecting overextension.
Probability Model : The probability of reversion is computed using three factors:
Whether the oscillator is rising or declining.
Whether the oscillator is above or below user-defined thresholds.
The oscillator’s actual value (distance from equilibrium).
Dual-Zone Output :
Upper histogram = probability of downward mean reversion.
Lower histogram = probability of upward mean reversion.
Historical Extremes : The dashboard highlights the recent maximum probability values for both upward and downward scenarios.
🔵 FEATURES
Oscillator Choice : Switch between RSI, MFI, and Stochastic.
Customizable Zones : User-defined upper/lower thresholds with independent colors.
Probability Histograms :
Above oscillator → down reversion probability.
Below oscillator → up reversion probability.
Colored Gradient Zones on Chart : Visual overlays showing where mean reversion probabilities are strongest.
Probability Labels : Percentages displayed next to histogram values for clarity.
Dashboard : Compact table in the corner showing the recent maximum probabilities for both upward and downward mean reversion.
Overlay Compatibility : Works in both chart pane and sub-pane with oscillators.
🔵 HOW TO USE
Set Oscillator : Choose RSI, MFI, or Stochastic depending on your strategy style.
Adjust Zones : Define upper/lower bounds for when oscillator values indicate strong overbought/oversold conditions.
Interpret Histograms :
Orange (upper) histogram → higher chance of a pullback/downward mean reversion.
Green (lower) histogram → higher chance of upward reversion/bounce.
Watch Gradient Zones : On the main chart, shaded areas highlight where probability of mean reversion is elevated.
Consult Dashboard : Use the “Recent MAX” values to understand how strong recent reversion probabilities have been in either direction.
Confluence Strategy : Combine with support/resistance, order flow, or trend filters to avoid counter-trend trades.
🔵 CONCLUSION
The Mean Reversion Probability Zones provides traders with an advanced way to quantify and visualize mean reversion opportunities. By blending oscillator momentum, threshold logic, and probability calculations, it highlights when markets are statistically stretched and primed for reversal. Whether you are a contrarian trader or simply looking for exhaustion signals to fade, this tool helps bring structure and clarity to mean reversion setups.
BUY & SELL Probability (M5..D1) - MTFMTF Probability Indicator (M5 to D1)
Indicator — Dual Histogram with Buy/Sell Labels
This indicator is designed to provide a probabilistic bias for bullish or bearish conditions by combining three different analytical components across multiple timeframes. The goal is to reduce noise from single-indicator signals and instead highlight confluence where trend, momentum, and strength agree.
Why this combination is useful
- EMA(200) Trend Filter: Identifies whether price is trading above or below a widely used long-term moving average.
- MACD Momentum: Detects short-term directional momentum through line crossovers.
- ADX Strength: Measures how strong the trend is, preventing signals in weak or flat markets.
By combining these, the indicator avoids situations where one tool signals a trade but others do not, helping to filter out low-probability setups.
How it works
- Each timeframe (M5, M15, H1, H4, D1) generates its own trend, momentum, and strength score.
- Scores are weighted according to user-defined importance and then aggregated into a single probability.
- Proximity to recent support and resistance levels can adjust the final score, accounting for nearby barriers.
- The final probability is displayed as:
- Histogram (subwindow): Green bars for bullish probability >50%, red bars for bearish <50%.
- On-chart labels: Showing exact buy/sell percentages on the last bar for quick reference.
Inputs
- EMA length (default 200), MACD settings, ADX period.
- Weights for each timeframe and component (trend, momentum, strength).
- Optional boost for the chart’s current timeframe.
- Smoothing length for probability values.
- Lookback period for support/resistance adjustment.
How to use it
- A green histogram above zero indicates bullish probability >50%.
- A red histogram below zero indicates bearish probability >50%.
- Neutral readings near 50% show low confluence and may be best avoided.
- Users can adjust weights to emphasize higher or lower timeframes, depending on their trading style.
Notes
- This script does not guarantee profitable trades.
- Best used together with price action, volume, or additional confirmation tools.
- Signals are calculated only on closed bars to avoid repainting.
- For testing and learning purposes — not financial advice.
Stop Loss vs Take Profit Probability and EVThis stop loss and take profit calculator uses a Monte Carlo simulation to calculate the probability of hitting your Stop Loss or Take Profit levels across different time horizons (expressed in bars).
It provides data-driven insights to optimize your risk management and position sizing by showing Expected Value for each scenario.
As a quant, I love using statistical data to help my decisions and get better EV from my trades.
🔬 How It's Calculated
Monte Carlo Simulation: Runs 1,000-10,000 price simulations using a random walk model
Volatility Analysis: Combines ATR-based and Historical Volatility for accurate price movement modeling
Expected Value: Calculates profit/loss expectation using formula: (TP_Probability × Reward) - (SL_Probability × Risk)
Time Horizons: Tests multiple timeframes (1, 5, 10, 20, 50 bars) to find optimal holding periods
Risk/Reward Ratios: Automatically calculates and displays R:R ratios for quick assessment
💡 Use Cases
Position Sizing - Determine optimal risk per trade based on Expected Value
Time Horizon Optimization - Find the best holding period for your strategy
Stop Loss Placement - Validate SL levels using probability analysis
Take Profit Optimization - Set TP levels with statistical backing
Strategy Backtesting - Compare different R:R setups before entering trades
Risk Management - Avoid trades with negative Expected Value
Swing vs Day Trading - Choose timeframes with highest success probability
🎯 How to Use
Setup Trade: Enter your entry price, stop loss, and take profit levels
You can add or remove time horizons denominated in bars. Say you are looking at 1h candles, adding a 24-bar time horizon means you are looking into 24 hours
Choose Direction: Select Long or Short position
Review Table
Analyze Expected Value: Focus on positive EV scenarios (green background)
Optimize Timing: Select time horizons with best risk/reward profile
Adjust Parameters: Modify volatility calculation method and simulation count if needed
Examples
Here's how you can read the tables.
Example 1:
In this chart, we are analyzing the TP and SL probabilities as well as the EV (expected value) for a stock. I want to check what the likelihood is that my SL and TP get triggered over the next 5 days. The stock market is open for 6.5 hours per day, which is 13 bars in this 30-minute bar chart. 26 bars is 2 days, 39 bars is 3 days and so on.
Although this trade is more likely to trigger my SL than my TP, in some of the time horizons we have a positive expected value because of the risk/reward of our trade (i.e. distance of the SL and TP from the price) and the probability of hitting SL and TP.
Example 2:
In this example, we have applied the indicator to gold. Because the TP is much closer to the price, the probability of hitting the TP is much higher.
We can also observe that the expected Value in the shorter time frames is better than in the longer ones. This can give us some clues to set up our trade. If we know that the EV is positive, we can allocate more to that specific trade.
Enjoy, and please let me know your feedback! 😊🥂
Advanced Range Analyzer ProAdvanced Range Analyzer Pro – Adaptive Range Detection & Breakout Forecasting
Overview
Advanced Range Analyzer Pro is a comprehensive trading tool designed to help traders identify consolidations, evaluate their strength, and forecast potential breakout direction. By combining volatility-adjusted thresholds, volume distribution analysis, and historical breakout behavior, the indicator builds an adaptive framework for navigating sideways price action. Instead of treating ranges as noise, this system transforms them into opportunities for mean reversion or breakout trading.
How It Works
The indicator continuously scans price action to identify active range environments. Ranges are defined by volatility compression, repeated boundary interactions, and clustering of volume near equilibrium. Once detected, the indicator assigns a strength score (0–100), which quantifies how well-defined and compressed the consolidation is.
Breakout probabilities are then calculated by factoring in:
Relative time spent near the upper vs. lower range boundaries
Historical breakout tendencies for similar structures
Volume distribution inside the range
Momentum alignment using auxiliary filters (RSI/MACD)
This creates a live probability forecast that updates as price evolves. The tool also supports range memory, allowing traders to analyze the last completed range after a breakout has occurred. A dynamic strength meter is displayed directly above each consolidation range, providing real-time insight into range compression and breakout potential.
Signals and Breakouts
Advanced Range Analyzer Pro includes a structured set of visual tools to highlight actionable conditions:
Range Zones – Gradient-filled boxes highlight active consolidations.
Strength Meter – A live score displayed in the dashboard quantifies compression.
Breakout Labels – Probability percentages show bias toward bullish or bearish continuation.
Breakout Highlights – When a breakout occurs, the range is marked with directional confirmation.
Dashboard Table – Displays current status, strength, live/last range mode, and probabilities.
These elements update in real time, ensuring that traders always see the current state of consolidation and breakout risk.
Interpretation
Range Strength : High scores (70–100) indicate strong consolidations likely to resolve explosively, while low scores suggest weak or choppy ranges prone to false signals.
Breakout Probability : Directional bias greater than 60% suggests meaningful breakout pressure. Equal probabilities indicate balanced compression, favoring mean-reversion strategies.
Market Context : Ranges aligned with higher timeframe trends often resolve in the dominant direction, while counter-trend ranges may lead to reversals or liquidity sweeps.
Volatility Insight : Tight ranges with low ATR imply imminent expansion; wide ranges signal extended consolidation or distribution phases.
Strategy Integration
Advanced Range Analyzer Pro can be applied across multiple trading styles:
Breakout Trading : Enter on probability shifts above 60% with confirmation of volume or momentum.
Mean Reversion : Trade inside ranges with high strength scores by fading boundaries and targeting equilibrium.
Trend Continuation : Focus on ranges that form mid-trend, anticipating continuation after consolidation.
Liquidity Sweeps : Use failed breakouts at boundaries to capture reversals.
Multi-Timeframe : Apply on higher timeframes to frame market context, then execute on lower timeframes.
Advanced Techniques
Combine with volume profiles to identify areas of institutional positioning within ranges.
Track sequences of strong consolidations for trend development or exhaustion signals.
Use breakout probability shifts in conjunction with order flow or momentum indicators to refine entries.
Monitor expanding/contracting range widths to anticipate volatility cycles.
Custom parameters allow fine-tuning sensitivity for different assets (crypto, forex, equities) and trading styles (scalping, intraday, swing).
Inputs and Customization
Range Detection Sensitivity : Controls how strictly ranges are defined.
Strength Score Settings : Adjust weighting of compression, volume, and breakout memory.
Probability Forecasting : Enable/disable directional bias and thresholds.
Gradient & Fill Options : Customize range visualization colors and opacity.
Dashboard Display : Toggle live vs last range, info table size, and position.
Breakout Highlighting : Choose border/zone emphasis on breakout events.
Why Use Advanced Range Analyzer Pro
This indicator provides a data-driven approach to trading consolidation phases, one of the most common yet underutilized market states. By quantifying range strength, mapping probability forecasts, and visually presenting risk zones, it transforms uncertainty into clarity.
Whether you’re trading breakouts, fading ranges, or mapping higher timeframe context, Advanced Range Analyzer Pro delivers a structured, adaptive framework that integrates seamlessly into multiple strategies.
MaxAlgo - HTF Bias TableHTF Bias Tracker
Overview
The HTF Bias Tracker is a custom indicator designed to help traders monitor higher time frame (HTF) market biases while trading on lower time frames. It provides a clear visual table displaying the bias (bullish, bearish, mixed, or neutral) based on whether the current HTF candle has broken the high or low of the previous HTF candle. Additionally, it shows the current candle's condition (bullish or bearish based on close relative to open). This tool is particularly useful for multi-timeframe analysis, allowing traders to align lower time frame entries with higher time frame trends without switching charts.
The indicator does not generate buy/sell signals but offers contextual bias information to inform trading decisions. It is built for flexibility, supporting up to 5 customizable time frames (default: 1H, 4H, Daily, Weekly, Monthly) and can be used on any chart time frame.
How It Works
For each selected higher time frame (HTF):
Bias Calculation (H/L Break Column):
The indicator checks if the current HTF candle's high has exceeded the previous HTF candle's high (bullish break) or if the low has fallen below the previous HTF candle's low (bearish break).
Bullish: Current high > previous high (no low break).
Bearish: Current low < previous low (no high break).
Mixed: Both high and low breaks occur.
Neutral: No breaks yet. In this case, the text is colored based on the last completed break from the prior candle (green for bullish, red for bearish, orange for mixed) to maintain context.
Candle Condition (Candle Column):
Determines if the current HTF candle is bullish (close > open) or bearish (close <= open).
The results are displayed in a table with arrows (↑ for bullish, ↓ for bearish, ↔ for mixed) and color-coded text for quick readability.
The bias updates in real-time as the HTF candle develops, but final confirmation occurs at the HTF candle close.
This logic is rooted in price action principles: breaking a previous candle's extreme often indicates momentum. For example, historical data across various markets shows that when a candle takes the low of the previous candle, there's approximately a 70% probability it closes bearish (and vice versa for highs closing bullish). This can help gauge the likelihood of trend continuation, but results vary by asset, time frame, and market conditions—always backtest for your setup.
Features
Customizable Time Frames: Select up to 5 HTFs via inputs (e.g., "60" for 1H, "D" for Daily). Leave blank to disable.
Table Display: A compact table shows TF, H/L Break bias, and Candle condition. Includes headers for clarity.
Visual Enhancements: Color-coded text (green for bullish, red for bearish, orange for mixed, gray for neutral without prior bias). Arrows provide at-a-glance direction.
User Options:
Table Background Color: Adjust transparency and color for better visibility.
Table Position: Choose from 9 positions (e.g., Bottom Right default).
Border Width (Padding): Increase for more spacing around the table (min 0).
No Overlays: The indicator appears as a non-overlay pane, keeping your chart clean.
Supports all symbols and time frames, but best on lower TFs (e.g., 1m-15m) for monitoring HTFs.
How to Use It
Add to Chart: Search for "HTF Bias Tracker" in TradingView's indicator library and add it to your chart.
Configure Inputs: Set your desired HTFs, position, and colors.
Interpret the Table:
Look for alignment across multiple HTFs (e.g., multiple "Bullish ↑" biases suggest upward momentum).
Use the H/L Break as a directional filter: Enter long trades only when HTF bias is bullish or neutral with a prior bull break.
Combine with Candle Condition for confirmation: A bearish bias with a bearish candle might signal short opportunities.
Trading Example:
On a 1m chart, if the 1H bias shows "Bearish ↓" (low of previous 1H broken), there's ~70% chance the 1H closes lower. Wait for lower TF pullbacks to enter shorts, aligning with the HTF downtrend.
For scalping: If Daily is "Bullish ↑" but 4H is "Neutral ↓" (prior bear break), consider fading minor pullbacks but avoid counter-trend trades.
Risk Management: Always use stop-losses based on recent highs/lows and position size appropriately. This indicator aids bias assessment but should be combined with other tools like support/resistance or oscillators.
Strategy Ideas:
Trend Alignment: Trade in the direction of the majority HTF biases.
Breakout Confirmation: When a break occurs, monitor for volume or price action confirmation on your trading TF.
Reversion Plays: In ranging markets, a "Mixed ↔" bias might signal indecision—avoid trades until resolution.
Backtest the probability edge (e.g., via Pine Script strategies) to quantify performance in your markets.
Limitations and Disclaimer
The ~70% probability mentioned is a general observation from historical price action studies (e.g., across forex and indices); it is not a guarantee and should be verified with your own data. No backtesting results are provided here—users are encouraged to test independently.
The indicator relies on request.security() for HTF data, which may have minor delays in real-time.
This is not financial advice. Trading involves risk, and past performance does not predict future results. Use at your own discretion and consult a professional advisor if needed.
Seasonality Monte Carlo Forecaster [BackQuant]Seasonality Monte Carlo Forecaster
Plain-English overview
This tool projects a cone of plausible future prices by combining two ideas that traders already use intuitively: seasonality and uncertainty. It watches how your market typically behaves around this calendar date, turns that seasonal tendency into a small daily “drift,” then runs many randomized price paths forward to estimate where price could land tomorrow, next week, or a month from now. The result is a probability cone with a clear expected path, plus optional overlays that show how past years tended to move from this point on the calendar. It is a planning tool, not a crystal ball: the goal is to quantify ranges and odds so you can size, place stops, set targets, and time entries with more realism.
What Monte Carlo is and why quants rely on it
• Definition . Monte Carlo simulation is a way to answer “what might happen next?” when there is randomness in the system. Instead of producing a single forecast, it generates thousands of alternate futures by repeatedly sampling random shocks and adding them to a model of how prices evolve.
• Why it is used . Markets are noisy. A single point forecast hides risk. Monte Carlo gives a distribution of outcomes so you can reason in probabilities: the median path, the 68% band, the 95% band, tail risks, and the chance of hitting a specific level within a horizon.
• Core strengths in quant finance .
– Path-dependent questions : “What is the probability we touch a stop before a target?” “What is the expected drawdown on the way to my objective?”
– Pricing and risk : Useful for path-dependent options, Value-at-Risk (VaR), expected shortfall (CVaR), stress paths, and scenario analysis when closed-form formulas are unrealistic.
– Planning under uncertainty : Portfolio construction and rebalancing rules can be tested against a cloud of plausible futures rather than a single guess.
• Why it fits trading workflows . It turns gut feel like “seasonality is supportive here” into quantitative ranges: “median path suggests +X% with a 68% band of ±Y%; stop at Z has only ~16% odds of being tagged in N days.”
How this indicator builds its probability cone
1) Seasonal pattern discovery
The script builds two day-of-year maps as new data arrives:
• A return map where each calendar day stores an exponentially smoothed average of that day’s log return (yesterday→today). The smoothing (90% old, 10% new) behaves like an EWMA, letting older seasons matter while adapting to new information.
• A volatility map that tracks the typical absolute return for the same calendar day.
It calculates the day-of-year carefully (with leap-year adjustment) and indexes into a 365-slot seasonal array so “March 18” is compared with past March 18ths. This becomes the seasonal bias that gently nudges simulations up or down on each forecast day.
2) Choice of randomness engine
You can pick how the future shocks are generated:
• Daily mode uses a Gaussian draw with the seasonal bias as the mean and a volatility that comes from realized returns, scaled down to avoid over-fitting. It relies on the Box–Muller transform internally to turn two uniform random numbers into one normal shock.
• Weekly mode uses bootstrap sampling from the seasonal return history (resampling actual historical daily drifts and then blending in a fraction of the seasonal bias). Bootstrapping is robust when the empirical distribution has asymmetry or fatter tails than a normal distribution.
Both modes seed their random draws deterministically per path and day, which makes plots reproducible bar-to-bar and avoids flickering bands.
3) Volatility scaling to current conditions
Markets do not always live in average volatility. The engine computes a simple volatility factor from ATR(20)/price and scales the simulated shocks up or down within sensible bounds (clamped between 0.5× and 2.0×). When the current regime is quiet, the cone narrows; when ranges expand, the cone widens. This prevents the classic mistake of projecting calm markets into a storm or vice versa.
4) Many futures, summarized by percentiles
The model generates a matrix of price paths (capped at 100 runs for performance inside TradingView), each path stepping forward for your selected horizon. For each forecast day it sorts the simulated prices and pulls key percentiles:
• 5th and 95th → approximate 95% band (outer cone).
• 16th and 84th → approximate 68% band (inner cone).
• 50th → the median or “expected path.”
These are drawn as polylines so you can immediately see central tendency and dispersion.
5) A historical overlay (optional)
Turn on the overlay to sketch a dotted path of what a purely seasonal projection would look like for the next ~30 days using only the return map, no randomness. This is not a forecast; it is a visual reminder of the seasonal drift you are biasing toward.
Inputs you control and how to think about them
Monte Carlo Simulation
• Price Series for Calculation . The source series, typically close.
• Enable Probability Forecasts . Master switch for simulation and drawing.
• Simulation Iterations . Requested number of paths to run. Internally capped at 100 to protect performance, which is generally enough to estimate the percentiles for a trading chart. If you need ultra-smooth bands, shorten the horizon.
• Forecast Days Ahead . The length of the cone. Longer horizons dilute seasonal signal and widen uncertainty.
• Probability Bands . Draw all bands, just 95%, just 68%, or a custom level (display logic remains 68/95 internally; the custom number is for labeling and color choice).
• Pattern Resolution . Daily leans on day-of-year effects like “turn-of-month” or holiday patterns. Weekly biases toward day-of-week tendencies and bootstraps from history.
• Volatility Scaling . On by default so the cone respects today’s range context.
Plotting & UI
• Probability Cone . Plots the outer and inner percentile envelopes.
• Expected Path . Plots the median line through the cone.
• Historical Overlay . Dotted seasonal-only projection for context.
• Band Transparency/Colors . Customize primary (outer) and secondary (inner) band colors and the mean path color. Use higher transparency for cleaner charts.
What appears on your chart
• A cone starting at the most recent bar, fanning outward. The outer lines are the ~95% band; the inner lines are the ~68% band.
• A median path (default blue) running through the center of the cone.
• An info panel on the final historical bar that summarizes simulation count, forecast days, number of seasonal patterns learned, the current day-of-year, expected percentage return to the median, and the approximate 95% half-range in percent.
• Optional historical seasonal path drawn as dotted segments for the next 30 bars.
How to use it in trading
1) Position sizing and stop logic
The cone translates “volatility plus seasonality” into distances.
• Put stops outside the inner band if you want only ~16% odds of a stop-out due to noise before your thesis can play.
• Size positions so that a test of the inner band is survivable and a test of the outer band is rare but acceptable.
• If your target sits inside the 68% band at your horizon, the payoff is likely modest; outside the 68% but inside the 95% can justify “one-good-push” trades; beyond the 95% band is a low-probability flyer—consider scaling plans or optionality.
2) Entry timing with seasonal bias
When the median path slopes up from this calendar date and the cone is relatively narrow, a pullback toward the lower inner band can be a high-quality entry with a tight invalidation. If the median slopes down, fade rallies toward the upper band or step aside if it clashes with your system.
3) Target selection
Project your time horizon to N bars ahead, then pick targets around the median or the opposite inner band depending on your style. You can also anchor dynamic take-profits to the moving median as new bars arrive.
4) Scenario planning & “what-ifs”
Before events, glance at the cone: if the 95% band already spans a huge range, trade smaller, expect whips, and avoid placing stops at obvious band edges. If the cone is unusually tight, consider breakout tactics and be ready to add if volatility expands beyond the inner band with follow-through.
5) Options and vol tactics
• When the cone is tight : Prefer long gamma structures (debit spreads) only if you expect a regime shift; otherwise premium selling may dominate.
• When the cone is wide : Debit structures benefit from range; credit spreads need wider wings or smaller size. Align with your separate IV metrics.
Reading the probability cone like a pro
• Cone slope = seasonal drift. Upward slope means the calendar has historically favored positive drift from this date, downward slope the opposite.
• Cone width = regime volatility. A widening fan tells you that uncertainty grows fast; a narrow cone says the market typically stays contained.
• Mean vs. price gap . If spot trades well above the median path and the upper band, mean-reversion risk is high. If spot presses the lower inner band in an up-sloping cone, you are in the “buy fear” zone.
• Touches and pierces . Touching the inner band is common noise; piercing it with momentum signals potential regime change; the outer band should be rare and often brings snap-backs unless there is a structural catalyst.
Methodological notes (what the code actually does)
• Log returns are used for additivity and better statistical behavior: sim_ret is applied via exp(sim_ret) to evolve price.
• Seasonal arrays are updated online with EWMA (90/10) so the model keeps learning as each bar arrives.
• Leap years are handled; indexing still normalizes into a 365-slot map so the seasonal pattern remains stable.
• Gaussian engine (Daily mode) centers shocks on the seasonal bias with a conservative standard deviation.
• Bootstrap engine (Weekly mode) resamples from observed seasonal returns and adds a fraction of the bias, which captures skew and fat tails better.
• Volatility adjustment multiplies each daily shock by a factor derived from ATR(20)/price, clamped between 0.5 and 2.0 to avoid extreme cones.
• Performance guardrails : simulations are capped at 100 paths; the probability cone uses polylines (no heavy fills) and only draws on the last confirmed bar to keep charts responsive.
• Prerequisite data : at least ~30 seasonal entries are required before the model will draw a cone; otherwise it waits for more history.
Strengths and limitations
• Strengths :
– Probabilistic thinking replaces single-point guessing.
– Seasonality adds a small but meaningful directional bias that many markets exhibit.
– Volatility scaling adapts to the current regime so the cone stays realistic.
• Limitations :
– Seasonality can break around structural changes, policy shifts, or one-off events.
– The number of paths is performance-limited; percentile estimates are good for trading, not for academic precision.
– The model assumes tomorrow’s randomness resembles recent randomness; if regime shifts violently, the cone will lag until the EWMA adapts.
– Holidays and missing sessions can thin the seasonal sample for some assets; be cautious with very short histories.
Tuning guide
• Horizon : 10–20 bars for tactical trades; 30+ for swing planning when you care more about broad ranges than precise targets.
• Iterations : The default 100 is enough for stable 5/16/50/84/95 percentiles. If you crave smoother lines, shorten the horizon or run on higher timeframes.
• Daily vs. Weekly : Daily for equities and crypto where month-end and turn-of-month effects matter; Weekly for futures and FX where day-of-week behavior is strong.
• Volatility scaling : Keep it on. Turn off only when you intentionally want a “pure seasonality” cone unaffected by current turbulence.
Workflow examples
• Swing continuation : Cone slopes up, price pulls into the lower inner band, your system fires. Enter near the band, stop just outside the outer line for the next 3–5 bars, target near the median or the opposite inner band.
• Fade extremes : Cone is flat or down, price gaps to the upper outer band on news, then stalls. Favor mean-reversion toward the median, size small if volatility scaling is elevated.
• Event play : Before CPI or earnings on a proxy index, check cone width. If the inner band is already wide, cut size or prefer options structures that benefit from range.
Good habits
• Pair the cone with your entry engine (breakout, pullback, order flow). Let Monte Carlo do range math; let your system do signal quality.
• Do not anchor blindly to the median; recalc after each bar. When the cone’s slope flips or width jumps, the plan should adapt.
• Validate seasonality for your symbol and timeframe; not every market has strong calendar effects.
Summary
The Seasonality Monte Carlo Forecaster wraps institutional risk planning into a single overlay: a data-driven seasonal drift, realistic volatility scaling, and a probabilistic cone that answers “where could we be, with what odds?” within your trading horizon. Use it to place stops where randomness is less likely to take you out, to set targets aligned with realistic travel, and to size positions with confidence born from distributions rather than hunches. It will not predict the future, but it will keep your decisions anchored to probabilities—the language markets actually speak.
Markov Chain Trend ProbabilityA Markov Chain is a mathematical model that predicts future states based on the current state, assuming that the future depends only on the present (not the past). Originally developed by Russian mathematician Andrey Markov, this concept is widely used in:
Finance: Risk modeling, portfolio optimization, credit scoring, algorithmic trading
Weather Forecasting: Predicting sunny/rainy days, temperature patterns, storm tracking
Here's an example of a Markov chain: If the weather is sunny, the probability that will be sunny 30 min later is say 90%. However, if the state changes, i.e. it starts raining, how the probability that will be raining 30 min later is say 70% and only 30% sunny.
Similar concept can be applied to markets price action and trends.
Mathematical Foundation
The core principle follows the Markov Property: P(X_{t+1}|X_t, X_{t-1}, ..., X_0) = P(X_{t+1}|X_t)
Transition Matrix :
-------------Next State
Current----
--------P11 P12
-----P21 P22
Probability Calculations:
P(Up→Up) = Count(Up→Up) / Count(Up states)
P(Down→Down) = Count(Down→Down) / Count(Down states)
Steady-state probability: π = πP (where π is the stationary distribution)
State Definition:
State = UPTREND if (Price_t - Price_{t-n})/ATR > threshold
State = DOWNTREND if (Price_t - Price_{t-n})/ATR < -threshold
How It Works in Trading
This indicator applies Markov Chain theory to market trends by:
Defining States: Classifies market conditions as UPTREND or DOWNTREND based on price movement relative to ATR (Average True Range)
Learning Transitions: Analyzes historical data to calculate probabilities of moving from one state to another
Predicting Probabilities: Estimates the likelihood of future trend continuation or reversal
How to Use
Parameters:
Lookback Period: Number of bars to analyze for trend detection (default: 14)
ATR Threshold: Sensitivity multiplier for state changes (default: 0.5)
Historical Periods: Sample size for probability calculations (default: 33)
Trading Applications:
Trend confirmation for entry/exit decisions
Risk assessment through probability analysis
Market regime identification
Early warning system for potential trend reversals
The indicator works on any timeframe and asset class. Enjoy!
Risk Distribution HistogramStatistical risk visualization and analysis tool for any ticker 📊
The Risk Distribution Histogram visualizes the statistical distribution of different risk metrics for any financial instrument. It converts risk data into histograms with quartile-based color coding, so that traders can understand their risk, tail-risks, exposure patterns and make data-driven decisions based on empirical evidence rather than assumptions.
The indicator supports multiple risk calculation methods, each designed for different aspects of market analysis, from general volatility assessment to tail risk analysis.
Risk Measurement Methods
Standard Deviation
Captures raw daily price volatility by measuring the dispersion of price movements. Ideal for understanding overall market conditions and timing volatility-based strategies.
Use case: Options trading and volatility analysis.
Average True Range (ATR)
Measures true range as a percentage of price, accounting for gaps and limit moves. Valuable for position sizing across different price levels.
Use case: Position sizing and stop-loss placement.
The chart above illustrates how ATR statistical distribution can be used by looking at the ATR % of price distribution. For example, 90% of the movements are below 5%.
Downside Deviation
Only considers negative price movements, making it ideal for checking downside risk and capital protection rather than capturing upside volatility.
Use case: Downside protection strategies and stop losses.
Drawdown Analysis
Tracks peak-to-trough declines, providing insight into maximum loss potential during different market conditions.
Use case: Risk management and capital preservation.
The chart above illustrates tale risk for the asset (TQQQ), showing that it is possible to have drawdowns higher than 20%.
Entropy-Based Risk (EVaR)
Uses information theory to quantify market uncertainty. Higher entropy values indicate more unpredictable price action, valuable for detecting regime changes.
Use case: Advanced risk modeling and tail-risk.
VIX Histogram
Incorporates the market's fear index directly into analysis, showing how current volatility expectations compare to historical patterns. The CAPITALCOM:VIX histogram is independent from the ticker on the chart.
Use case: Volatility trading and market timing.
Visual Features
The histogram uses quartile-based color coding that immediately shows where current risk levels stand relative to historical patterns:
Green (Q1): Low Risk (0-25th percentile)
Yellow (Q2): Medium-Low Risk (25-50th percentile)
Orange (Q3): Medium-High Risk (50-75th percentile)
Red (Q4): High Risk (75-100th percentile)
The data table provides detailed statistics, including:
Count Distribution: Historical observations in each bin
PMF: Percentage probability for each risk level
CDF: Cumulative probability up to each level
Current Risk Marker: Shows your current position in the distribution
Trading Applications
When current risk falls into upper quartiles (Q3 or Q4), it signals conditions are riskier than 50-75% of historical observations. This guides position sizing and portfolio adjustments.
Key applications:
Position sizing based on empirical risk distributions
Monitoring risk regime changes over time
Comparing risk patterns across timeframes
Risk distribution analysis improves trade timing by identifying when market conditions favor specific strategies.
Enter positions during low-risk periods (Q1)
Reduce exposure in high-risk periods (Q4)
Use percentile rankings for dynamic stop-loss placement
Time volatility strategies using distribution patterns
Detect regime shifts through distribution changes
Compare current conditions to historical benchmarks
Identify outlier events in tail regions
Validate quantitative models with empirical data
Configuration Options
Data Collection
Lookback Period: Control amount of historical data analyzed
Date Range Filtering: Focus on specific market periods
Sample Size Validation: Automatic reliability warnings
Histogram Customization
Bin Count: 10-50 bins for different detail levels
Auto/Manual Bin Width: Optimize for your data range
Visual Preferences: Custom colors and font sizes
Implementation Guide
Start with Standard Deviation on daily charts for the most intuitive introduction to distribution-based risk analysis.
Method Selection: Begin with Standard Deviation
Setup: Use daily charts with 20-30 bins
Interpretation: Focus on quartile transitions as signals
Monitoring: Track distribution changes for regime detection
The tool provides comprehensive statistics including mean, standard deviation, quartiles, and current position metrics like Z-score and percentile ranking.

Leavitt Convolution ProbabilityTechnical Analysis of Markets with Leavitt Market Projections and Associated Convolution Probability
The aim of this study is to present an innovative approach to market analysis based on the research "Leavitt Market Projections." This technical tool combines one indicator and a probability function to enhance the accuracy and speed of market forecasts.
Key Features
Advanced Indicators : the script includes the Convolution line and a probability oscillator, designed to anticipate market changes. These indicators provide timely signals and offer a clear view of price dynamics.
Convolution Probability Function : The Convolution Probability (CP) is a key element of the script. A significant increase in this probability often precedes a market decline, while a decrease in probability can signal a bullish move. The Convolution Probability Function:
At each bar, i, the linear regression routine finds the two parameters for the straight line: y=mix+bi.
Standard deviations can be calculated from the sequence of slopes, {mi}, and intercepts, {bi}.
Each standard deviation has a corresponding probability.
Their adjusted product is the Convolution Probability, CP. The construction of the Convolution Probability is straightforward. The adjusted product is the probability of one times 1− the probability of the other.
Customizable Settings : Users can define oversold and overbought levels, as well as set an offset for the linear regression calculation. These options allow for tailoring the script to individual trading strategies and market conditions.
Statistical Analysis : Each analyzed bar generates regression parameters that allow for the calculation of standard deviations and associated probabilities, providing an in-depth view of market dynamics.
The results from applying this technical tool show increased accuracy and speed in market forecasts. The combination of Convolution indicator and the probability function enables the identification of turning points and the anticipation of market changes.
Additional information:
Leavitt, in his study, considers the SPY chart.
When the Convolution Probability (CP) is high, it indicates that the probability P1 (related to the slope) is high, and conversely, when CP is low, P1 is low and P2 is high.
For the calculation of probability, an approximate formula of the Cumulative Distribution Function (CDF) has been used, which is given by: CDF(x)=21(1+erf(σ2x−μ)) where μ is the mean and σ is the standard deviation.
For the calculation of probability, the formula used in this script is: 0.5 * (1 + (math.sign(zSlope) * math.sqrt(1 - math.exp(-0.5 * zSlope * zSlope))))
Conclusions
This study presents the approach to market analysis based on the research "Leavitt Market Projections." The script combines Convolution indicator and a Probability function to provide more precise trading signals. The results demonstrate greater accuracy and speed in market forecasts, making this technical tool a valuable asset for market participants.
Probability Grid [LuxAlgo]The Probability Grid tool allows traders to see the probability of where and when the next reversal would occur, it displays a 10x10 grid and/or dashboard with the probability of the next reversal occurring beyond each cell or within each cell.
🔶 USAGE
By default, the tool displays deciles (percentiles from 0 to 90), users can enable, disable and modify each percentile, but two of them must always be enabled or the tool will display an error message alerting of it.
The use of the tool is quite simple, as shown in the chart above, the further the price moves on the grid, the higher the probability of a reversal.
In this case, the reversal took place on the cell with a probability of 9%, which means that there is a probability of 91% within the square defined by the last reversal and this cell.
🔹 Grid vs Dashboard
The tool can display a grid starting from the last reversal and/or a dashboard at three predefined locations, as shown in the chart above.
🔶 DETAILS
🔹 Raw Data vs Normalized Data
By default the tool displays the normalized data, this means that instead of using the raw data (price delta between reversals) it uses the returns between each reversal, this is useful to make an apples to apples comparison of all the data in the dataset.
This can be seen in the left side of the chart above (BTCUSD Daily chart) where normalize data is disabled, the percentiles from 0 to 40 overlap and are indistinguishable from each other because the tool uses the raw price delta over the entire bitcoin history, with normalize data enabled as we can see in the right side of the chart we can have a fair comparison of the data over the entire history.
🔹 Probability Beyond or Within Each Cell
Two different probability modes are available, the default mode is Probability Beyond Each Cell, the number displayed in each cell is the probability of the next reversal to be located in the area beyond the cell, for example, if the cell displays 20%, it means that in the area formed by the square starting from the last reversal and ending at the cell, there is an 80% probability and outside that square there is a 20% probability for the location of the next reversal.
The second probability mode is the probability within each cell, this outlines the chance that the next reversal will be within the cell, as we can see on the right chart above, when using deciles as percentiles (default settings), each cell has the same 1% probability for the 10x10 grid.
🔶 SETTINGS
Swing Length: The maximum length in bars used to identify a swing
Maximum Reversals: Maximum number of reversals included in calculations
Normalize Data: Use returns between swings instead of raw price
Probability: Choose between two different probability modes: beyond and inside each cell

SuperTrend + Relative Volume (Kernel Optimized)Introducing our new KDE Optimized Supertrend + Relative Volume Indicator!
This innovative indicator combines the power of the Supertrend indicator along with Relative Volume. It utilizes the Kernel Density Estimation (KDE) to estimate the probability of a candlestick marking a significant trend break or reversal.
❓How to Interpret the KDE %:
The KDE % is a crucial metric that reflects the likelihood that the current candlestick represents a true break in the SuperTrend line, supported by an increase in relative volume. It estimates the probability of a trend shift or continuation based on historical SuperTrend breaks and volume patterns:
Low KDE %: A lower probability that the current break is significant. Price action is less likely to reverse, and the trend may continue.
Moderate KDE - High KDE %: An increased possibility that a trend reversal or consolidation could occur. Traders should start watching for confirmation signals.
📌How Does It Work?
The SuperTrend indicator uses the Average True Range (ATR) to determine the direction of the trend and identifies when the price crosses the SuperTrend line, signaling a potential trend reversal. Here's how the KDE Optimized SuperTrend Indicator works:
SuperTrend Calculation: The SuperTrend indicator is calculated, and when the price breaks above (bullish) or below (bearish) the SuperTrend line, it is logged as a significant event.
Relative Volume: For each break in the SuperTrend line, we calculate the relative volume (current volume vs. the average volume over a defined period). High relative volume can suggest stronger confirmation of the trend break.
KDE Array Calculation: KDE is applied to the break points and relative volume data:
Define the KDE options: Bandwidth, Number of Steps, and Array Range (Array Max - Array Min).
Create a density range array using the defined number of steps, corresponding to potential break points.
Apply a Gaussian kernel function to the break points and volume data to estimate the likelihood of the trend break being significant.
KDE Value and Signal Generation: The KDE array is updated as each break occurs. The KDE % is calculated for the breakout candlestick, representing the likelihood of the trend break being significant. If the KDE value exceeds the defined activation threshold, a darker bullish or bearish arrow is plotted after bar confirmation. If the KDE value falls below the threshold, a more transparent arrow is drawn, indicating a possible but lower probability break.
⚙️Settings:
SuperTrend Settings:
ATR Length: The period over which the Average True Range (ATR) is calculated.
Multiplier: The multiplier applied to the ATR to determine the SuperTrend threshold.
KDE Settings:
Bandwidth: Determines the smoothness of the KDE function and the width of the influence of each break point.
Number of Bins (Steps): Defines the precision of the KDE algorithm, with higher values offering more detailed calculations.
KDE Threshold %: The level at which relative volume is considered significant for confirming a break.
Relative Volume Length: The number of historic candles used in calculating KDE %
Reversal Probability Zone & Levels [LuxAlgo]The Reversal Probability Zone & Levels tool allows traders to identify a zone starting from the last detected reversal to highlight the probability of where the next reversal would be from a price and time perspective.
Price and time levels within the zone are displayed for up to 4 percentiles defined by the user.
🔶 USAGE
By default, the tool displays a zone with the 25th, 50th, 75th and 90th percentiles on both the price and time axis, indicating where, when and how many of the past reversals have occurred.
Traders can select the length for swing detection and the maximum number of reversals for probability calculations. The tool considers both bullish and bearish reversals separately, which means that if the last reversal was a swing high, the zone would show the probabilities for the last defined Maximum reversals
The Maximum reversals value has a direct impact on the probabilities, the more data traders use the more significant the result, probabilities over 10 occurrences are far weak compared to probabilities over 1000 occurrences.
🔹 Percentiles
Traders can fine-tune the percentile parameters in the settings panel.
A given percentile means that the number of occurrences in the data set is less than or equal to the percentile.
In English, this means
Percentile 20th: 20% of the occurrences are less than or equal to this value, so 80% of the occurrences are greater than this value.
Percentile 50th: 50% of the occurrences are below and 50% are above this value.
Percentile 80th: 80% of occurrences are lower than or equal to this value, so 20% of occurrences are greater than this value.
🔹 Normalize data
The Normalize Data feature allows traders to make an apples to apples comparison when we have a lot of historical data on high timeframe charts, using returns between swings instead of raw price.
🔹 Display Style
By default, the tool has the No overlapping feature enabled to display a clean chart, traders can turn it off, but this can fill the chart with too much information and barely see the price.
Traders can enable/disable settings to show only the last zone and the swing markers on the chart.
🔶 SETTINGS
Swing Length: The maximum length in bars used to identify a swing
Maximum Reversals: Maximum number of reversals included in calculations
Normalize Data: Use returns between swings instead of raw price
Percentiles: Enable/disable each of the four percentiles and select the percentile number, line style, colors, and size
🔹 Style
No Overlapping Zones: Enable or disable the No overlap between zones feature
Show Only Last Zone: Enable/disable display of last zone only
Show Marks: Enable/disable reversal markers

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
