Intrabar Efficiency Ratio█ OVERVIEW
This indicator displays a directional variant of Perry Kaufman's Efficiency Ratio, designed to gauge the "efficiency" of intrabar price movement by comparing the sum of movements of the lower timeframe bars composing a chart bar with the respective bar's movement on an average basis.
█ CONCEPTS
Efficiency Ratio (ER)
Efficiency Ratio was first introduced by Perry Kaufman in his 1995 book, titled "Smarter Trading". It is the ratio of absolute price change to the sum of absolute changes on each bar over a period. This tells us how strong the period's trend is relative to the underlying noise. Simply put, it's a measure of price movement efficiency. This ratio is the modulator utilized in Kaufman's Adaptive Moving Average (KAMA), which is essentially an Exponential Moving Average (EMA) that adapts its responsiveness to movement efficiency.
ER's output is bounded between 0 and 1. A value of 0 indicates that the starting price equals the ending price for the period, which suggests that price movement was maximally inefficient. A value of 1 indicates that price had travelled no more than the distance between the starting price and the ending price for the period, which suggests that price movement was maximally efficient. A value between 0 and 1 indicates that price had travelled a distance greater than the distance between the starting price and the ending price for the period. In other words, some degree of noise was present which resulted in reduced efficiency over the period.
As an example, let's say that the price of an asset had moved from $15 to $14 by the end of a period, but the sum of absolute changes for each bar of data was $4. ER would be calculated like so:
ER = abs(14 - 15)/4 = 0.25
This suggests that the trend was only 25% efficient over the period, as the total distanced travelled by price was four times what was required to achieve the change over the period.
Intrabars
Intrabars are chart bars at a lower timeframe than the chart's. Each 1H chart bar of a 24x7 market will, for example, usually contain 60 intrabars at the LTF of 1min, provided there was market activity during each minute of the hour. Mining information from intrabars can be useful in that it offers traders visibility on the activity inside a chart bar.
Lower timeframes (LTFs)
A lower timeframe is a timeframe that is smaller than the chart's timeframe. This script determines which LTF to use by examining the chart's timeframe. The LTF determines how many intrabars are examined for each chart bar; the lower the timeframe, the more intrabars are analyzed, but fewer chart bars can display indicator information because there is a limit to the total number of intrabars that can be analyzed.
Intrabar precision
The precision of calculations increases with the number of intrabars analyzed for each chart bar. As there is a 100K limit to the number of intrabars that can be analyzed by a script, a trade-off occurs between the number of intrabars analyzed per chart bar and the chart bars for which calculations are possible.
Intrabar Efficiency Ratio (IER)
Intrabar Efficiency Ratio applies the concept of ER on an intrabar level. Rather than comparing the overall change to the sum of bar changes for the current chart's timeframe over a period, IER compares single bar changes for the current chart's timeframe to the sum of absolute intrabar changes, then applies smoothing to the result. This gives an indication of how efficient changes are on the current chart's timeframe for each bar of data relative to LTF bar changes on an average basis. Unlike the standard ER calculation, we've opted to preserve directional information by not taking the absolute value of overall change, thus allowing it to be utilized as a momentum oscillator. However, by taking the absolute value of this oscillator, it could potentially serve as a replacement for ER in the design of adaptive moving averages.
Since this indicator preserves directional information, IER can be regarded as similar to the Chande Momentum Oscillator (CMO) , which was presented in 1994 by Tushar Chande in "The New Technical Trader". Both CMO and ER essentially measure the same relationship between trend and noise. CMO simply differs in scale, and considers the direction of overall changes.
█ FEATURES
Display
Three different display types are included within the script:
• Line : Displays the middle length MA of the IER as a line .
Color for this display can be customized via the "Line" portion of the "Visuals" section in the script settings.
• Candles : Displays the non-smooth IER and two moving averages of different lengths as candles .
The `open` and `close` of the candle are the longest and shortest length MAs of the IER respectively.
The `high` and `low` of the candle are the max and min of the IER, longest length MA of the IER, and shortest length MA of the IER respectively.
Colors for this display can be customized via the "Candles" portion of the "Visuals" section in the script settings.
• Circles : Displays three MAs of the IER as circles .
The color of each plot depends on the percent rank of the respective MA over the previous 100 bars.
Different colors are triggered when ranks are below 10%, between 10% and 50%, between 50% and 90%, and above 90%.
Colors for this display can be customized via the "Circles" portion of the "Visuals" section in the script settings.
With either display type, an optional information box can be displayed. This box shows the LTF that the script is using, the average number of lower timeframe bars per chart bar, and the number of chart bars that contain LTF data.
Specifying intrabar precision
Ten options are included in the script to control the number of intrabars used per chart bar for calculations. The greater the number of intrabars per chart bar, the fewer chart bars can be analyzed.
The first five options allow users to specify the approximate amount of chart bars to be covered:
• Least Precise (Most chart bars) : Covers all chart bars by dividing the current timeframe by four.
This ensures the highest level of intrabar precision while achieving complete coverage for the dataset.
• Less Precise (Some chart bars) & More Precise (Less chart bars) : These options calculate a stepped LTF in relation to the current chart's timeframe.
• Very precise (2min intrabars) : Uses the second highest quantity of intrabars possible with the 2min LTF.
• Most precise (1min intrabars) : Uses the maximum quantity of intrabars possible with the 1min LTF.
The stepped lower timeframe for "Less Precise" and "More Precise" options is calculated from the current chart's timeframe as follows:
Chart Timeframe Lower Timeframe
Less Precise More Precise
< 1hr 1min 1min
< 1D 15min 1min
< 1W 2hr 30min
> 1W 1D 60min
The last five options allow users to specify an approximate fixed number of intrabars to analyze per chart bar. The available choices are 12, 24, 50, 100, and 250. The script will calculate the LTF which most closely approximates the specified number of intrabars per chart bar. Keep in mind that due to factors such as the length of a ticker's sessions and rounding of the LTF, it is not always possible to produce the exact number specified. However, the script will do its best to get as close to the value as possible.
Specifying MA type
Seven MA types are included in the script for different averaging effects:
• Simple
• Exponential
• Wilder (RMA)
• Weighted
• Volume-Weighted
• Arnaud Legoux with `offset` and `sigma` set to 0.85 and 6 respectively.
• Hull
Weighting
This script includes the option to weight IER values based on the percent rank of absolute price changes on the current chart's timeframe over a specified period, which can be enabled by checking the "Weigh using relative close changes" option in the script settings. This places reduced emphasis on IER values from smaller changes, which may help to reduce noise in the output.
█ FOR Pine Script™ CODERS
• This script imports the recently published lower_ltf library for calculating intrabar statistics and the optimal lower timeframe in relation to the current chart's timeframe.
• This script uses the recently released request.security_lower_tf() Pine Script™ function discussed in this blog post .
It works differently from the usual request.security() in that it can only be used on LTFs, and it returns an array containing one value per intrabar.
This makes it much easier for programmers to access intrabar information.
• This script implements a new recommended best practice for tables which works faster and reduces memory consumption.
Using this new method, tables are declared only once with var , as usual. Then, on the first bar only, we use table.cell() to populate the table.
Finally, table.set_*() functions are used to update attributes of table cells on the last bar of the dataset.
This greatly reduces the resources required to render tables.
Look first. Then leap.

[PX] External LevelHello everyone,
today I'd like to share a script, which enables you to use external logic to plot levels on your chart.
How does it work?
The concept is based on two scripts. One script, which uses an external input as a trigger to print a new level and one script that calculates an output, which will be fetched.
Sounds complicated? It really is not! Let's take a closer look.
// This source code is subject to the terms of the Mozilla Public License 2.0 at mozilla.org
// © paaax
//@version=4
study("RSI OS/OB")
l = input(14, "RSI Length")
ob = input(70, "Overbought")
os = input(30, "Oversold")
r = rsi(close, l)
hline(ob)
hline(os)
plot(r, "RSI", color=color.orange)
// The following plot produces an output, which will be fetched the "External Level"-script.
// It evaluates to one of the following three values: 1.0, -1.0 or 0.0
plot(crossover(r, ob) ? 1.0 : crossunder(r, os) ? -1.0 : 0.0, "Output", transp=100)
The example script above uses an RSI and two threshold levels (70 and 30). The logic here is, that whenever the RSI is crossing down the lower threshold or crossing up the upper threshold we'd consider the current movement to be either oversold or overbought. Therefore, it's a point of interest, which we could visualize with a level.
The script creates an output when the crossover or crossunder of a threshold happens. A crossover would result in a value of 1.0, a crossunder in a value of -1.0. In all other cases the value would be 0.0.
The output of the RSI script would then be used as an input of the External Level script, which has a "Source"-parameter in its input-section. If the fetched input shows 1.0, then the script prints a resistance level. If it shows -1.0 a support level will be printed. And that's basically it. A very simple approach to print levels on your chart with an infinite number of use cases.
For example, you could use fetch outputs from a MACD script, MA script, outputs based on volume or price movement. Just remember the output has to evaluate to either 1.0 or -1.0 and has to be selected in the input-section.
Hope that might be useful to some of you :)

How to avoid repainting when NOT using security()Even when your code does not use security() calls, repainting dynamics still come into play in the realtime bar. Script coders and users must understand them and, if they choose to avoid repainting, need to know how to do so. This script demonstrates three methods to avoid repainting when NOT using the security() function.
Note that repainting dynamics when not using security() usually only come into play in the realtime bar, as historical data is fixed and thus cannot cause repainting, except in situations related to stock splits or dividend adjustments.
For those who don’t want to read
Configure your alerts to trigger “Once Per Bar Close” and you’re done.
For those who want to understand
Put this indicator on a 1 minute or seconds chart with a live symbol. As price changes you will see four of this script’s MAs (all except the two orange ones) move in the realtime bar. You are seeing repainting in action. When the current realtime bar closes and becomes a historical bar, the lines on the historical bars will no longer move, as the bar’s OHLC values are fixed. Note that you may need to refresh your chart to see the correct historical OHLC values, as exchange feeds sometimes produce very slight variations between the end values of the realtime bar and those of the same bar once it becomes a historical bar.
Some traders do not use signals generated by a script but simply want to avoid seeing the lines plotted by their scripts move during the realtime bar. They are concerned with repainting of the lines .
Other traders use their scripts to evaluate conditions, which they use to either plot markers on the chart, trigger alerts, or both. They may not care about the script’s plotted lines repainting, but do not want their markers to appear/disappear on the chart, nor their alerts to trigger for a condition that becomes true during the realtime bar but is no longer true once it closes. Those traders are more concerned with repainting of signals .
For each of the three methods shown in this script’s code, comments explain if its lines, markers and alerts will repaint or not. Through the Settings/Inputs you will be able to control plotting of lines and markers corresponding to each method, as well as experiment with the option, for method 2, of disabling only the lines plotting in the realtime bar while still allowing the markers and alerts to be generated.
An unavoidable fact is that non-repainting lines, markers or alerts are always late compared to repainting ones. The good news is that how late they are will in many cases be insignificant, so that the added reliability of the information they provide will largely offset the disadvantages of waiting.
Method 1 illustrates the usual way of going about things in a script. Its gray lines and markers will always repaint but repainting of the alerts the marker conditions generate can be avoided by configuring alerts to trigger “Once Per Bar Close”. Because this gray marker repaints, you will occasionally see it appear/disappear during the realtime bar when the gray MAs cross/un-cross.
Method 2 plots the same MAs as method 1, but in green. The difference is that it delays its marker condition by one bar to ensure it does not repaint. Its lines will normally repaint but its markers will not, as they pop up after the condition has been confirmed on the bar preceding the realtime bar. Its markers appear at the beginning of the realtime bar and will never disappear. When using this method alerts can be configured to trigger “Once Per Bar” so they fire the moment the marker appears on the chart at the beginning of the realtime bar. Note that the delay incurred between methods 1 and 2 is merely the instant between the close of a realtime bar and the beginning of the next one—a delay measured in milliseconds. Method 2 also allows its lines to be hidden in the realtime bar with the corresponding option in the script’s Settings/Inputs . This will be useful to those wishing to eliminate unreliable lines from the realtime bar. Commented lines in method 2 provide for a 2b option, which is to delay the calculation of the MAs rather than the cross condition. It has the obvious inconvenient of plotting delayed MAs, but may come in handy in some situations.
Method 3 is not the best solution when using MAs because it uses the open of bars rather than their close to calculate the MAs. While this provides a way of avoiding repainting, it is not ideal in the case of MA calcs but may come in handy in other cases. The orange lines and markers of method 3 will not repaint because the value of open cannot change in the realtime bar. Because its markers do not repaint, alerts may be configured using “Once Per Bar”.
Spend some time playing with the different options and looking at how this indicator’s lines plot and behave when you refresh you chart. We hope everything you need to understand and prevent repainting when not using security() is there.

Watchlist & Symbols Distribution [Daveatt]TLDR;
I got bored so I just coded the TradingView watchlist interface in Pinescript :)
TLDR 2:
Sharing it open-source what took me 1 full day to code - haven't coded in Pinescript in a long time, so I'm a bit slow for now :)
█ OVERVIEW
This script offers a comprehensive market analysis tool inspired by TradingView's native watchlist interface features.
It combines an interactive watchlist with powerful distribution visualization capabilities and a performance comparison panel.
The script was developed with a focus on providing multiple visualization methods while working within PineScript's limitations.
█ DEVELOPMENT BACKGROUND
The pie chart implementation was greatly inspired by the ( "Crypto Map Dashboard" script / )
adapting its circular visualization technique to create dynamic distribution charts. However, due to PineScript's 500-line limitation per script, I had to optimize the code to allow users to switch between pie chart analysis and performance comparison modes rather than displaying both simultaneously.
█ SETUP AND DISPLAY
For optimal visualization, users need to adjust the chart's display settings manually.
This involves:
Expanding the indicator window vertically to accommodate both the watchlist and graphical elements
Adjusting the Y-axis scale by dragging it to ensure proper spacing for the comparison panel grid
Modifying the X-axis scale to achieve the desired time window display
Fine-tuning these adjustments whenever switching between pie chart and comparison panel modes
These manual adjustments are necessary due to PineScript's limitations in controlling chart scaling programmatically. While this requires some initial setup, it allows users to customize the display to their preferred viewing proportions.
█ MAIN FEATURES
Distribution Analysis
The script provides three distinct distribution visualization modes through a pie chart.
Users can analyze their symbols by exchanges, asset types (such as Crypto, Forex, Futures), or market sectors.
If you can't see it well at first, adjust your chart scaling until it's displayed nicely.
Asset Exchanges
www.tradingview.com
Asset Types
Asset Sectors
The pie charts feature an optional 3D effect with adjustable depth and angle parameters. To enhance visual customization, four different color schemes are available: Default, Pastel, Dark, and Neon.
Each segment of the pie chart includes interactive tooltips that can be configured to show different levels of detail. Importantly, the pie chart only visualizes the distribution of selected assets (those marked with a checkmark in the watchlist), providing a focused view of the user's current interests.
Interactive Watchlist
The watchlist component displays real-time data for up to 10 user-defined symbols. Each entry shows current price, price changes (both absolute and percentage), volume metrics, and a comparison toggle.
The table is dynamically updated and features color-coded entries that correspond to their respective performance lines in the comparison chart. The watchlist serves as both an information display and a control panel for the comparison feature.
Performance Comparison
One of the script's most innovative features is its performance comparison panel.
Using polylines for smooth visualization, it tracks the 30-day performance of selected symbols relative to a 0% baseline.
The comparison chart includes a sophisticated grid system with 5% intervals and a dynamic legend showing current performance values.
The polyline implementation allows for fluid, continuous lines that accurately represent price movements, providing a more refined visual experience than traditional line plots. Like the pie charts, the comparison panel only displays performance lines for symbols that have been selected in the watchlist, allowing users to focus on their specific assets of interest.
█ TECHNICAL IMPLEMENTATION
The script utilizes several advanced PineScript features:
Dynamic array management for symbol tracking
Polyline-based charting for smooth performance visualization
Real-time data processing with security calls
Interactive tooltips and labels
Optimized drawing routines to maintain performance
Selective visualization based on user choices
█ CUSTOMIZATION
Users can personalize almost every aspect of the script:
Symbol selection and comparison preferences
Visual theme selection with four distinct color schemes
Pie chart dimensions and positioning
Tooltip information density
Component visibility toggles
█ LIMITATIONS
The primary limitation stems from PineScript's 500-line restriction per script.
This constraint necessitated the implementation of a mode-switching system between pie charts and the comparison panel, as displaying both simultaneously would exceed the line limit. Additionally, the script relies on manual chart scale adjustments, as PineScript doesn't provide direct control over chart scaling when overlay=false is enabled.
However, these limitations led to a more focused and efficient design approach that gives users control over their viewing experience.
█ CONCLUSION
All those tools exist in the native TradingView watchlist interface and they're better than what I just did.
However, now it exists in Pinescript... so I believe it's a win lol :)
Supertrend Alert with Arrows and Time FilterOverview
This script is designed to generate trading signals based on the Supertrend indicator, a popular technical analysis tool. The Supertrend indicator is used to identify the direction of the market trend and potential reversal points.
Supertrend Settings
The script uses two sets of Supertrend settings:
Small Supertrend
Factor: 3.0
ATR Period: 10
Big Supertrend
Factor: 10.0
ATR Period: 30
These settings are fixed and should not be altered to maintain the integrity of the signal generation process.
Configurable Parameters
startHour: The hour at which signal generation begins.
endHour: The hour at which signal generation ends.
These parameters allow users to focus on specific trading hours, optimizing the signal relevance to their trading strategy.
Signal Types
The script generates two types of signals:
Type 1: Reversal Signal
Long Signal: Triggered when the big Supertrend is in an uptrend, and the small Supertrend transitions from a downtrend to an uptrend.
Short Signal: Triggered when the big Supertrend is in a downtrend, and the small Supertrend transitions from an uptrend to a downtrend.
Type 2: Trend Change Signal
Long Signal: Triggered when the big Supertrend changes from a downtrend to an uptrend.
Short Signal: Triggered when the big Supertrend changes from an uptrend to a downtrend.
How the Script Works
Initialization: The script initializes with predefined Supertrend settings.
Data Input: Market data (e.g., price data) is fed into the script.
Supertrend Calculation: The script calculates the Supertrend values using the predefined factors and ATR periods.
Signal Detection: The script monitors the Supertrend values and detects the defined signals based on the conditions mentioned above.
Time Filtering: Signals are filtered based on the specified startHour and endHour, ensuring only relevant signals are displayed within the desired timeframe.
Usage
Set Parameters: Define startHour and endHour according to your trading schedule.
Run Script: Execute the script with market data input.
Interpret Signals: Monitor the generated signals and use them to inform your trading decisions.
Originality
Dual Supertrend Usage: The use of both a small and a big Supertrend to generate signals adds a layer of complexity and reliability to the signals.
Time-Based Filtering: Allows traders to focus on specific trading hours, enhancing the relevance and accuracy of signals.
Two Signal Types: The combination of reversal signals and trend change signals provides comprehensive market insights.
Conclusion
This Supertrend Signal Generator is a robust tool for traders seeking to leverage the Supertrend indicator for more informed trading decisions. By combining dual Supertrend settings and configurable trading hours, the script offers unique and flexible signal generation capabilities.

Interpreting the Table:
On the right side of the chart, you will see a table labeled "EMA" with arrows.
The rows correspond to different timeframes: 5 minutes (5M), 15 minutes (15M), 1 hour (1H), 4 hours (4H), and 1 day (1D).
Understanding the Arrows:
Each row of the table has two columns: "EMA" and an arrow.
"EMA" indicates the trend of the Exponential Moving Average (EMA) for the specified period.
The arrow indicates the direction of the trend: ▲ for bullish, ▼ for bearish.
Table Colors:
The colors of the table reflect the current trend based on the comparison between fast and slow EMAs.
Blue (▲) indicates a bullish trend.
Red (▼) indicates a bearish trend.
Table Theme:
The table has a dark (Dark) or light (Light) theme according to your preference.
The background, frame, and colors are adjusted based on the selected theme.
Usage:
Use the table as a quick indicator of trends on different timeframes.
The arrows help you quickly identify trends without navigating between different time units.
Designed to simplify analysis and avoid cluttering the chart with multiple indicators.
Pro Trading Art - Head And ShouldersHow the Script Works:
1. The script identifies potential Head and Shoulders patterns by searching for specific pivot highs and pivot lows in the price data.
2. It checks for the presence of a left shoulder, head, and right shoulder based on the conditions defined in the script.
3. If a valid Head and Shoulders pattern is found, the script plots lines and labels on the chart to visualize the pattern.
4. The script also identifies Inverted Head and Shoulders patterns using similar logic but with different conditions.
5. It plots lines and labels for the Inverted Head and Shoulders pattern.
6. The script generates short and long conditions based on the patterns. Short conditions trigger when the close price crosses below the neck level of a Head and Shoulders pattern, while long conditions trigger when the close price crosses above the neck level of an Inverted Head and Shoulders pattern.
7. It plots sell and buy signal shapes on the chart when the short and long conditions are met, respectively.
8. The script can also trigger alerts to notify the user when a valid Head and Shoulders or Inverted Head and Shoulders pattern is detected.
9. The script provides visual cues on the chart to help users identify potential trading opportunities.
10. The logic and parameters of the script can be modified by the user to customize the behavior and adapt it to different trading strategies.
How Users Can Make Profit Using This Script:
1. Identify potential short-selling opportunities: When a valid Head and Shoulders pattern is detected and a short condition is met, it indicates a potential trend reversal. Traders can consider opening short positions to profit from a downward price movement.
2. Identify potential long-buying opportunities: When a valid Inverted Head and Shoulders pattern is detected and a long condition is met, it suggests a potential trend reversal. Traders can consider opening long positions to profit from an upward price movement.
3. Combine with additional analysis: Users can utilize this script as a tool in their overall trading strategy. They can combine the signals generated by the script with other technical indicators, fundamental analysis, or market sentiment to make more informed trading decisions.
4. Define appropriate entry and exit points: Traders can use the lines and labels plotted by the script to determine entry and exit points for their trades. For example, they may choose to enter a short position after the price crosses below the neck level and exit when the price reaches a predetermined target or when the pattern is invalidated.
5. Set risk management measures: It is important for users to implement proper risk management strategies when trading based on the script's signals. They should define stop-loss orders to limit potential losses if the trade goes against them and consider setting profit targets to secure profits when the trade moves in their favor.
Tick travel ⍗This script is a further exploration of 'ticks' (only on realtime - live bars), based on my previous script:
- www.tradingview.com -
What are 'ticks'?
... Once the script’s execution reaches the rightmost bar in the dataset, if trading is currently active on the chart’s symbol,
then Pine indicators will execute once every time an update occurs, i.e., price or volume changes ...
(www.tradingview.com)
This script has 2 parts:
1) Option: ' Tick up/down'
This is a further progression of previous work.
During bar development, every time there is an update (tick), a dot is placed.
If for example there is 1 tick (first of new bar), a dot will be placed on 1,
if it is the 8th tick off that bar, there will be a dot placed on 8.
While my previous script had the issue that there was an upper limit per bar (max 32),
this script (because it is working with labels) can place max 500 dots.
For each bar this is better, it has to be mentioned though that looking in history, once the limit of 500 has been reached,
you'll notice the last ones are being deleted. This is one of the reasons the script is not suitable for higher timeframes
(1h and higher, even higher than 5 minutes can give some issues if it is a highly traded ticker), if a bar would have more
than 500 ticks, they won't be drawn anymore (which is not desirable of course)
2) Option: ' Tick progression'
These are the same ticks, but placed on the candle itself, or you can show the candle:
Or 'without' candle (or 'black' colour):
When 'No candles' are enabled, the 'candles' get the colour at the right.
At the moment it is not possible to drawn between 2 candles, this technique uses labels with 'text',
each tick on a candle will have a 'space' added, so you can see a progression to the right.
Colours
- if price is higher than previous tick price -> green
- if price is lower than previous tick price -> red
- otherwise -> blue (dimmed)
There are options to choose the 'dot', when choosing 'custom',
just enter (copy/paste) your symbol of your choice in the 'custom' field:
Caveats:
- Labels and text will not always be exactly on the price itself
- The scripts needs more testings, possibly some ticks don't always get drawn as they should.
The lower the timeframe, the more possible issues can occur
- Since (candle option) the dots move to the right, the higher the timeframe and/or the more ticks,
the sooner ticks will go in the area of next candle.
That's why I made a separate 'start symbol'
-> This is the very first tick on each candle, then you can zoom in/out more easily until the dots don't merge into each other candle area:
A timeframe higher than 5 minutes mostly won't be feasible I believe
This script wouldn't be possible without the help of @LucF, also because of his script
With very much respect I am hugely inspired by him! Many Thanks to him, Tradingview, and everything associated with them!
Cheers!
Matrix Library (Linear Algebra, incl Multiple Linear Regression)What's this all about?
Ever since 1D arrays were added to Pine Script, many wonderful new opportunities have opened up. There has been a few implementations of matrices and matrix math (most notably by TradingView-user tbiktag in his recent Moving Regression script: ). However, so far, no comprehensive libraries for matrix math and linear algebra has been developed. This script aims to change that.
I'm not math expert, but I like learning new things, so I took it upon myself to relearn linear algebra these past few months, and create a matrix math library for Pine Script. The goal with the library was to make a comprehensive collection of functions that can be used to perform as many of the standard operations on matrices as possible, and to implement functions to solve systems of linear equations. The library implements matrices using arrays, and many standard functions to manipulate these matrices have been added as well.
The main purpose of the library is to give users the ability to solve systems of linear equations (useful for Multiple Linear Regression with K number of independent variables for example), but it can also be used to simulate 2D arrays for any purpose.
So how do I use this thing?
Personally, what I do with my private Pine Script libraries is I keep them stored as text-files in a Libraries folder, and I copy and paste them into my code when I need them. This library is quite large, so I have made sure to use brackets in comments to easily hide any part of the code. This helps with big libraries like this one.
The parts of this script that you need to copy are labeled "MathLib", "ArrayLib", and "MatrixLib". The matrix library is dependent on the functions from these other two libraries, but they are stripped down to only include the functions used by the MatrixLib library.
When you have the code in your script (pasted somewhere below the "study()" call), you can create a matrix by calling one of the constructor functions. All functions in this library start with "matrix_", and all constructors start with either "create" or "copy". I suggest you read through the code though. The functions have very descriptive names, and a short description of what each function does is included in a header comment directly above it. The functions generally come in the following order:
Constructors: These are used to create matrices (empy with no rows or columns, set shape filled with 0s, from a time series or an array, and so on).
Getters and setters: These are used to get data from a matrix (like the value of an element or a full row or column).
Matrix manipulations: These functions manipulate the matrix in some way (for example, functions to append columns or rows to a matrix).
Matrix operations: These are the matrix operations. They include things like basic math operations for two indices, to transposing a matrix.
Decompositions and solvers: Next up are functions to solve systems of linear equations. These include LU and QR decomposition and solvers, and functions for calculating the pseudo-inverse or inverse of a matrix.
Multiple Linear Regression: Lastly, we find an implementation of a multiple linear regression, including all the standard statistics one can expect to find in most statistical software packages.
Are there any working examples of how to use the library?
Yes, at the very end of the script, there is an example that plots the predictions from a multiple linear regression with two independent (explanatory) X variables, regressing the chart data (the Y variable) on these X variables. You can look at this code to see a real-world example of how to use the code in this library.
Are there any limitations?
There are no hard limiations, but the matrices uses arrays, so the number of elements can never exceed the number of elements supported by Pine Script (minus 2, since two elements are used internally by the library to store row and column count). Some of the operations do use a lot of resources though, and as a result, some things can not be done without timing out. This can vary from time to time as well, as this is primarily dependent on the available resources from the Pine Script servers. For instance, the multiple linear regression cannot be used with a lookback window above 10 or 12 most of the time, if the statistics are reported. If no statistics are reported (and therefore not calculated), the lookback window can usually be extended to around 60-80 bars before the servers time out the execution.
Hopefully the dev-team at TradingView sees this script and find ways to implement this functionality diretly into Pine Script, as that would speed up many of the operations and make things like MLR (multiple linear regression) possible on a bigger lookback window.
Some parting words
This library has taken a few months to write, and I have taken all the steps I can think of to test it for bugs. Some may have slipped through anyway, so please let me know if you find any, and I'll try my best to fix them when I have time to do so. This library is intended to help the community. Therefore, I am releasing the library as open source, in the hopes that people may improving on it, or using it in their own work. If you do make something cool with this, or if you find ways to improve the code, please let me know in the comments.
EMA TrendThe purpose of this script is to identify price trends based on EMAs. The relative position of price to specific EMAs and the position of certain EMAs towards each other are used to determine the trend direction. The script is intended for investors as a tool to define a basis for further evaluation. I do not use the script as a signal generator and would not recommend doing so without the help of additional indicators.
How to work with the script
The major (or long term) trend direction is determined by the 144 EMA much in the same way as the 200 MA is used in other systems. If the price is above the 144 EMA we are in a long term uptrend, below we are in a long term downtrend. This is to be taken with a grain of salt though. The 144 EMA is considerably shorter than the 200 SMA and is more prone to the price fluctuating around it during periods without a strong long term trend. I recommend using this as a confirmation for the short term trend.
The short term trend is derived from the position and slope of the price, the 21 EMA and the 55 EMA. If the price is above the 21 EMA, the 21 above the 55 EMA, both EMAs are sloping upwards and the distance between the two is increasing, we are talking about an uptrend (and vice versa for a downtrend). This is visualized by the color of the fill between the 144 EMA and close price. Green for uptrend, red for downtrend and no color for an undetermined trend.
The EMAs used are: 21 , 34 , 55 , 89 , 144 , 233 . Most of the EMAs are at 50 transparency to appear less dominant. For orientation, the 144 EMA is bright green to indicate its general importance for the trend determination, and the 55 EMAs is not transparent mainly to be able to identify positioning when the EMAs are close together.
Base time frame EMA
The 144 EMA is plotted twice where one is fixed to the daily time frame (can be configured) to be able to have the 144 on different timeframes during analysis. I find this very useful to keep the focus on my main time frame while analyzing trend on lower or higher time frames. This can also be turned off.
Configurability
This script is less configurable than I generally like with my other scripts. The reason is that the title attribute of the plots is not dynamic, and I use the data window often to get exact values from the script to determine buy targets for pullbacks and other things. Hence, I prefer not to have random names (or no names) in there to save mental capacity. If this ever becomes available, I'll gladly add this to this script. Till then, I encourage you to take the script and adjust it to your own needs. It should be simple enough even if you are just starting out in pine.

[SGM GARCH Volatility]I'm excited to share with you a Pine Script™ that I developed to analyze GARCH (Generalized Autoregressive Conditional Heteroskedasticity) volatility. This script allows you to calculate and plot GARCH volatility on TradingView. Let's see together how it works!
Introduction
Volatility is a key concept in finance that measures the variation in prices of a financial asset. The GARCH model is a statistical method that predicts future volatility based on past volatilities and prediction residuals (errors).
Indicator settings
We define several parameters for our indicator:
length = input.int(20, title="Length")
p = input.int(1, title="Lag order (p)")
q = input.int(1, title="Degree of moving average (q)")
cluster_value = input(0.2,title="cluster value")
length: The period used for the calculations, default 20.
p: The order of the delay for the GARCH model.
q: The degree of the moving average for the GARCH model.
cluster_value: A threshold value used to color the graph.
Calculation of logarithmic returns
We calculate logarithmic returns to capture price changes:
logReturns = math.log(close) - math.log(close )
Initializing arrays
We initialize arrays to store residuals and volatilities:
var float residuals = array.new_float(length, 0)
var float volatilities = array.new_float(length, 0)
We add the new logarithmic returns to the tables and keep their size constant:
array.unshift(residuals, logReturns)
if (array.size(residuals) > length)
array.pop(residuals)
We then calculate the mean and variance of the residuals:
meanResidual = array.avg(residuals)
varianceResidual = array.stdev(residuals, meanResidual)
volatility = math.sqrt(varianceResidual)
We update the volatility table with the new value:
array.unshift(volatilities, volatility)
if (array.size(volatilities) > length)
array.pop(volatilities)
GARCH volatility is calculated from accumulated data:
var float garchVolatility = na
if (array.size(volatilities) >= length and array.size(residuals) >= length)
alpha = 0.1 // Alpha coefficient
beta = 0.85 // Beta coefficient
omega = 0.01 // Omega constant
sumVolatility = 0.0
for i = 0 to p-1
sumVolatility := sumVolatility + beta * math.pow(array.get(volatilities, i), 2)
sumResiduals = 0.0
for j = 0 to q-1
sumResiduals := sumResiduals + alpha * math.pow(array.get(residuals, j), 2)
garchVolatility := math.sqrt(omega + sumVolatility + sumResiduals)
Plot GARCH volatility
We finally plot the GARCH volatility on the chart and add horizontal lines for easier visual analysis:
plt = plot(garchVolatility, title="GARCH Volatility", color=color.rgb(33, 149, 243, 100))
h1 = hline(0.1)
h2 = plot(cluster_value)
h3 = hline(0.3)
colorGarch = garchVolatility > cluster_value ? color.red: color.green
fill(plt, h2, color = colorGarch)
colorGarch: Determines the fill color based on the comparison between garchVolatility and cluster_value.
Using the script in your trading
Incorporating this Pine Script™ into your trading strategy can provide you with a better understanding of market volatility and help you make more informed decisions. Here are some ways to use this script:
Identification of periods of high volatility:
When the GARCH volatility is greater than the cluster value (cluster_value), it indicates a period of high volatility. Traders can use this information to avoid taking large positions or to adjust their risk management strategies.
Anticipation of price movements:
An increase in volatility can often precede significant price movements. By monitoring GARCH volatility spikes, traders can prepare for potential market reversals or accelerations.
Optimization of entry and exit points:
By using GARCH volatility, traders can better identify favorable times to enter or exit a position. For example, entering a position when volatility begins to decrease after a peak can be an effective strategy.
Adjustment of stops and objectives:
Since volatility is an indicator of the magnitude of price fluctuations, traders can adjust their stop-loss and take-profit orders accordingly. Periods of high volatility may require wider stops to avoid being exited from a position prematurely.
That's it for the detailed explanation of this Pine Script™ script. Don’t hesitate to use it, adapt it to your needs and share your feedback! Happy analysis and trading everyone!
Сoncentrated Market Maker Strategy by oxowlConcentrated Market Maker Strategy by oxowl. This script plots an upper and lower bound for liquidity provision, and checks for rebalancing conditions. It also includes alert conditions for when the price crosses the upper or lower bounds.
Here's an overview of the script:
It defines the input parameters: liquidity range percentage, rebalance frequency in minutes, and minimum trade size in assets.
It calculates the upper and lower bounds for liquidity provision based on the liquidity range percentage.
It initializes variables for the last rebalance time and price.
It defines a rebalance condition based on the frequency and current price within the specified range.
If the rebalance condition is met, it updates the last rebalance time and price.
It plots the upper and lower bounds on the chart as lines and adds price labels for both bounds.
It defines alert conditions for when the price crosses the upper or lower bounds.
Finally, it creates alert conditions with appropriate messages for when the price crosses the upper or lower bounds.
Concentrated liquidity is a concept often used in decentralized finance (DeFi) market-making strategies. It allows liquidity providers (LPs) to focus their liquidity within a specific price range, rather than across the entire price curve. Using an indicator with concentrated liquidity can offer several advantages:
Increased capital efficiency: Concentrated liquidity allows LPs to allocate their capital within a narrower price range. This means that the same amount of capital can generate more significant price impact and potentially higher returns compared to providing liquidity across a broader range.
Customized risk exposure: LPs can choose the price range they feel most comfortable with, allowing them to better manage their risk exposure. By selecting a range based on their market outlook, they can optimize their positions to maximize potential returns.
Adaptive strategies: Indicators that support concentrated liquidity can help traders adapt their strategies based on market conditions. For example, they can choose to provide liquidity around a stable price range during low-volatility periods or adjust their range when market conditions change.
To continue integrating this script into your trading strategy, follow these steps:
Import the script into your TradingView account. Navigate to the Pine editor, paste the code, and save it as a new script.
Apply the indicator to a trading pair chart. You can customize the input parameters (liquidity range percentage, rebalance frequency, and minimum trade size) based on your preferences and risk tolerance.
Set alerts for when the price crosses the upper or lower bounds. This will notify you when it's time to take action, such as adding or removing liquidity, or rebalancing your position.
Monitor the performance of your strategy over time. Adjust the input parameters as needed to optimize your returns and manage risk effectively.
(Optional) Integrate the script with a trading bot or automation platform. If you're using an API-based trading solution, you can incorporate the logic and conditions from the script into your bot's algorithm to automate the process of providing concentrated liquidity and rebalancing your positions.
Remember that no strategy is foolproof, and past performance is not indicative of future results. Always exercise caution when trading and carefully consider your risk tolerance.
Hikkake Hunter 2.0This script serves as a successor to a previous script I wrote for identifying Hikkakes nearly two years ago.
The old version has been preserved here:
█ OVERVIEW
This script is a rework of an old script that identified the Hikkake candlestick pattern. While this pattern is not usually considered a part of the standard candlestick patterns set, I found a lot of value when finding a solution to identifying it. A Hikkake pattern is a 3-candle pattern where a middle candle is nested in between the range of the prior candle, and a candle that follows has a higher high and a higher low (bearish setup) or a lower high and a lower low (bullish setup). What makes this pattern unique is the "confirmation" status of the pattern; within 3 candles of this pattern's appearance, there must be a candle that closes above the high (bullish setup) or below the low (bearish setup) of the second candle. Additional flexibility has been added which allows the user to specify the number of candles (up to 5) that the pattern may have to confirm after its appearance.
█ CONCEPTS
This script will cover concepts mainly focusing on candlestick analysis, price analysis (with higher timeframes), and statistical analysis. I believe there is also educational value presented with the use of user-defined-types (UDTs) in accomplishing these concepts that I hope others will find useful.
Candlestick Analysis - Identification and confirmation of the patterns in the deprecated script were clunky and inefficient. While the previous script required the use of 6 candles to perform the confirmations of patterns (restricted solely to identifying patterns that confirmed in 3 candles or less), this script only requires 3 candles to identify and process patterns by utilizing a UDT representing a 'pattern object'. An object representing a pattern will be created when it has been identified, and fields within that object will be set for processing by the functions it is passed to. Pattern objects are held by a var array (values within the array persist between bars) and will be removed from this array once they have been confirmed or non-confirmed.
This is a significant deviation from the previous script's methods, as it prevents unnecessary re-evaluations of the confirmation status of patterns (i.e. Hikkakes confirmed on the first candle will no longer need to be checked for confirmations on the second or third; a pitfall of the deprecated version which required multiple booleans tracking prior confirmation statuses). This deviation is also what provides the flexibility in changing the number of candles that can pass before a pattern is deemed non-confirmed.
As multiple patterns can be confirmed simultaneously, this script uses another UDT representing a linked-list reduction of the pattern object used to process it. This liked-list object will then be used for Price Analysis.
Price Analysis - This script employs the use of a UDT which contains all the returns of confirmed patterns. The user specifies how many candles ahead of the confirmed pattern to calculate its return, as well as where this calculation begins. There are two settings: FROM APPEARANCE and FROM CONFIRMATION (default). Price differences are calculated from the open of the candle immediately following the candle which had confirmed the pattern to the close of the candle X candles ahead (default 10). ( SEE FEATURES )
Because of how Pine functions, this calculation necessitates a lookback on prior candles to identify when a pattern had been confirmed. This is accomplished with the following pseudo-code:
if not na(confirmed linked-list )
for all confirmed in list
GET MATRIX PLACEMENT
offset = FROM CONFIRMATION ? 0 : # of candles to confirm
openAtFind = open
percent return = ((close - openAtFind) / openAtFind) * 100
ADD percent return TO UDT IN MATRIX
All return UDTs are held in a matrix which breaks up these patterns into specific groups covered in the next section.
Higher Timeframes - This script makes a request.security call to a higher timeframe in order to identify a price range which breaks up these patterns into groups based on the 'partition' they had appeared in. The default values for this partitioning will break up the chart into three sections: upper, middle, and lower. The upper section represents the highest 20% of the yearly trading range that an asset has experienced. The lower section represents the trading range within a third (33%) of the yearly low. And the middle section represents the yearly high-low range between these two partitions.
The matrix containing all return UDTs will have these returns split up based on the number of candles required to confirm the pattern as well as the partition the pattern had appeared in. The underlying rationale is that patterns may perform better or worse at different parts of an asset's trading range.
Statistical Analysis - Once a pattern has been confirmed, the matrix containing all return UDTs will be queried to check if a 'returnArray' object has been created for that specific pattern. If not, one will be initialized and a confirmed linked-list object will be created that contains information pertinent to the matrix position of this object.
This matrix contains the returns of both the Bullish and Bearish Hikkake patterns, separated by the number of candles needed to confirm them, and by the partitions they had appeared in. For the standard 3 candles to confirm, this means the matrix will contain 18 elements (dependent on the number of candles allowed for confirmations; its size will range from 12 to 30).
When the required number of candles for Price Analysis passes, a percent return is calculated and added to the returnArray contained in the matrix at the location derived from the confirmed linked-list object's values. The return is added, and all values in the returnArray are updated using Pine's built in array.___ functions. This returnArray object contains the array of all returns, its size, its average, the median, the standard deviation of returns, and a separate 3-integer array which holds values that correspond to the types of returns experienced by this pattern (negative, neutral, and positive)*.
After a pattern has been confirmed, this script will place the partition and all of the aforementioned stats values (plus a 95% confidence interval of expected returns) related to that pattern onto the tooltip of the label that identifies it. This allows users to scroll over the label of a confirmed pattern to gauge its prior performance under specific conditions. The percent return of the specific pattern identified will later be placed onto the label tooltip as well. ( SEE LIMITATIONS )
The stats portion of this script also plays a significant role in how patterns are presented when using the Adaptive Coloring mode described in FEATURES .
*These values are incremented based on user-input related to what constitutes a 'negative' or 'positive' return. Default values would place any return by a pattern between -3% and 3% in the 'neutral' category, and values exceeding either end will be placed in the 'negative' or 'positive' categories.
█ FEATURES
This script contains numerous inputs for modifying its behavior and how patterns are presented/processed, separated into 5 groups.
Confirmation Setting - The most important input for this script's functioning. This input is a 'confirm=true' input and must be set by the user before the script is applied to the chart. It sets the number of candles that a pattern has to confirm once it has been identified.
Alert Settings - This group of booleans sets which types of alerts will fire during the scripts execution on the chart. If enabled, the four alerts will trigger when: a pattern has been identified, a pattern has been confirmed, a pattern has been non-confirmed, and show the return for that confirmed pattern in an alert. Because this script uses the 'alert' function and not 'alertcondition', these must be enabled before 'any alert() function call' is set in TradingView's 'alerts' settings.
Partition Settings - This group of inputs are responsible for creating (and viewing) the partitions that breaks the returns of the patterns identified up into their respective groups. The user may set the resolution to grab the range from, the length back of this resolution the partitions get their values from, the thresholds which breaks the partitions up into their groups, and modify the visibility (if they're shown, the colors, opacity) of these partitions.
Stats Settings - These inputs will drastically alter how patterns are presented and the resulting information derived from them after their appearance. Because of this section's importance, some of these inputs will be described in more detail.
P/L Sample Length - Defines the number of candles after the starting point to grab values from in the % return calculation for that pattern.
P/L Starting Point - Defines the starting point where the P/L calculation will take place. 'FROM APPEARANCE' will set the starting point at the candle immediately following the pattern's appearance. 'FROM CONFIRMATION' will place the starting point immediately following the candle which had confirmed the pattern. ( SEE LIMITATIONS )
Min Returns Needed - Sets how many times a specific pattern must appear (both by number of candles needed to confirm and by partition) before the statistics for that pattern are displayed onto the tooltip (and for gradient coloration in Adaptive Coloring mode).
Enable Adaptive Coloring - Changes the coloration of the patterns based on the bullish/bearishness of the specified Gradient Reference value of that pattern compared to the Return Tolerance values OR the minimum and maximum values of that specified Gradient Reference value contained in the matrix of all returns. This creates a color from a gradient using the user-specified colors and alters how many of the patterns may appear if prior performance is taken into account.
Gradient Reference - Defines which stats measure of returns will be used in the gradient color generation. The two settings are 'AVG' and 'MEDIAN'.
Hard Limit - This boolean sets whether the Return Tolerance values will not be replaced by values that exceed them from the matrix of returns in color gradient generation. This changes the scale of the gradient where any Gradient Reference values of patterns that exceed these tolerances will be colored the full bullish or bearish gradient colors, and anything in between them will be given a color from the gradient.
Visibility Settings - This last section includes all settings associated with the overall visibility of patterns found with this script. This includes the position of the labels and their colors (+ pattern colors without Adaptive Coloring being enabled), and showing patterns that were non-confirmed.
Most of these inputs in the script have these kinds of descriptions to what they do provided by their tooltips.
█ HOW TO USE
I attempted to make this script much easier to use in terms of analyzing the patterns and displaying the information to the user. The previous script would have the user go to the 'data window' side bar on TradingView to view the returns of a pattern after they had specified which pattern to analyze through the settings, needlessly convoluted. This aim at simplicity was achieved through the use of UDTs and specific code-design.
To use, simply apply the indicator to a chart, set the number of candles (between 2 and 5) for confirming this specific pattern and adjust the many settings described above at your leisure.
█ LIMITATIONS
Disclaimer - This is a tool created with the hopes of helping identify a specific pattern and provide an informative view about the performance of that pattern. Previous performance is not indicative of future results. None of this constitutes any form of financial advice, *use at your own risk*.
Statistical Analysis - This script assumes that all patterns will yield a NORMAL DISTRIBUTION regarding their returns which may not be reflective of reality. I personally have limited experience within the field of statistics apart from a few high school/college courses and make no guarantees that the calculation of the 95% confidence interval is correct. Please review the source code to verify for yourself that this interval calculation is correct (Function Name: f_DisplayStatsOnLabel).
P/L Starting Point - Because of when the object related to the confirmation status of a pattern is created (specifically the linked-list object) setting the 'P/L Starting Point' to 'FROM APPEARANCE' will yield the results of that P/L calculation at the same time as 'FROM CONFIRMATION'.

[@btc_charlie] Trader XO Macro Trend ScannerWhat is this script?
This script has two main functions focusing on EMAs (Exponential Moving Average) and Stochastic RSI.
EMAs
EMAs are typically used to give a view of bullish / bearish momentum. When the shorter EMA (calculated off more recent price action) crosses, or is above, the slower moving EMA (calculated off a longer period of price action), it suggests that the market is in an uptrend. This can be an indication to either go long on said asset, or that it is more preferable to take long setups over short setups. Invalidation on long setups is usually found via price action (e.g. previous lows) or simply waiting for an EMA cross in the opposite direction (i.e. shorter EMA crosses under longer term EMA).
This is not a perfect system for trade entry or exit, but it does give a good indication of market trends. The settings for the EMAs can be changed based on user inputs, and by default the candles are coloured based on the crosses to make it more visual. The default settings are based on “Trader XO’s” settings who is an exceptional swing trader.
RSI
Stochastic RSI is a separate indicator that has been added to this script. RSI measures Relative Strength (RSI = Relative Strength Index). When RSI is <20 it is considered oversold, and when >80 it is overbought. These conditions suggests that momentum is very strong in the direction of the trend.
If there is a divergence between the price (e.g. price is creating higher highs, and stoch RSI is creating lower highs) it suggests the strength of the trend is weakening. Whilst this script does not highlight divergences, what it does highlight is when the shorter term RSI (K) crosses over D (the average of last 3 periods). This can give an indication that the trend is losing strength.
Combination
The EMAs indicate when trend shifts (bullish or bearish).
The RSI indicates when the trend is losing momentum.
The combination of the two can be used to suggest when to prefer a directional bias, and subsequently shift in anticipation of a trend reversal.
Note that no signal is 100% accurate and an interpretation of market conditions and price action will need to be overlayed to
Why is it different to others?
I have not found other scripts that are available in this way visually including alerts when Stoch RSI crosses over/under the extremes; or the mid points.
Whilst these indicators are default, the combination of them and how they are presented is not and makes use of the TradingView colouring functionalities.
What are the features?
Customise the variables (averages) used in the script.
Display as one EMA or two EMAs (the crossing ones).
Alerts on EMA crosses.
Alerts on Stoch RSI crosses - slow/fast, upper, lower areas.
- Currently set on the chart to show alerts when Stoch RSI is above 80, then falls below 80 (and colours it red).
Customisable colours.
What are the best conditions for this?
It is designed for high timeframe charts and analysis in crypto, since crypto tends to trend.
It can however be used for lower timeframes.
Disclaimer/Notes:
I have noticed several videos appearing suggesting that this is a "100% win rate indicator" .
NO indicator has 100% win rate.
An indicator is an *indicator* that is all.
Please use responsibly and let me know if there are any mods or updates you would like to see.
Barholle eMA and RSI Movement TestThis is a test that offers insight into whether and asset is heading into bullish or bearish territory.
This indicator/test offers insight into the Exponential Moving Average's velocity and acceleration as well as the Stochastic RSI's velocity, acceleration and jerk. Included is a 'Stochastic Difference' and 'Stochastic Growth' indicators (commented out) that measure the difference between K and D in the Stoch RSI as well as the rate of it's change. This test is all about crossovers - the best leading indicator is a downward cross of the eMA velocity over the eMA acceleration, indicating a drop in price in the current or next bar.
The lines or importance have been set to -2 and 5, but these should be adjusted to suit your preferences. These numbers were chosen in order to try and create some kind of threshold after which action might be suggested. Backtesting is highly recommended so you can see how the test does and does not work. It is super powerful, but it is not omniscient - its an RSI and eMA derivative, past success does not necessarily dictate future success.
Please look at the code for several more plots you can use of derivatives and other ideas explore but commented out for greater legibility of the graph. Commenting and commenting (or uncommenting all and just disabling some in the settings) and comparing the graphs and crossovers is a useful exercise. To that end, one last concept - the MARSI - a combined moving averages and RSI measurement - was abandoned because it didn't appear to indicate anything of use, however you may find crossovers or patterns with it comparing it to other graphs, so it was left in but commented.
Please take a look at the comments and all the math and indicators 'left on the cutting room floor' in the script. Maybe you'll find a gem in the redux version of this script.
Outreach regarding the script, patterns noticed and full-on stealing of the script are all permitted. Many elements of this script were nabbed from other scripts - thank you to a community of coders who put it all out there.
Fibonacci Retracement MTF/LOGIn Pine Script, there’s always a shorter way to achieve a result. As far as I can see, there isn’t an indicator among the community scripts that can produce Fibonacci Retracement levels (linear and logarithmic) as multiple time frame results based on a reference 🍺 This script, which I developed a long time ago, might serve as a starting point to fill this gap.
OVERVIEW
This indicator is a short and simple script designed to display Fibonacci Retracement levels on the chart according to user preferences, aiming to build the structure of support and resistance.
ORIGINALITY
This script:
Can calculate 'retracement' results from higher time frames.
Can recall previous time frame results using its reference parameter.
Performs calculations based on both linear and logarithmic scales.
Offers optional multipliers and appearance settings to simplify users’ tasks
CONCEPTS
Fibonacci Retracement is a technical analysis tool used to predict potential reversal points in an asset's price after a significant movement. This indicator identifies possible support and resistance levels by measuring price movements between specific points in a trend, using certain ratios derived from the Fibonacci sequence. It is based on impulsive price actions.
MECHANICS
This indicator first identifies the highest and lowest prices in the time frame specified by the user. Next, it determines the priority order of the bars where these prices occurred. Finally, it defines the trend direction. Once the trend direction is determined, the "Retracement" levels are constructed.
FUNCTIONS
The script contains two functions:
f_ret(): Generates levels based on the multiplier parameter.
f_print(): Handles the visualization by drawing the levels on the chart and positioning the labels in alignment with the levels. It utilizes parameters such as ordinate, confirmation, multiplier, and color for customization
NOTES
The starting bar for the time frame entered by the user must exist on the chart. Otherwise, the trend direction cannot be determined correctly, and the levels may be drawn inaccurately. This is also mentioned in the tooltip of the TimeFrame parameter.
I hope it helps everyone. Do not forget to manage your risk. And trade as safely as possible. Best of luck!
Advanced Volume-Driven Breakout SignalsThe "Advanced Volume-Driven Breakout Signals" indicator is a cutting-edge tool designed to help traders identify high-potential trading opportunities through sophisticated volume analysis techniques. This indicator integrates volume flow analysis, moving averages, and Relative Volume (RVOL) to provide a comprehensive view of market conditions, going beyond traditional Volume Spread Analysis (VSA) methods.
Key Features:
Volume Flow Analysis: Distinguishes bullish and bearish volume flows with distinct colors, making it easier to visualize market sentiment and potential breakout points.
Volume Flow Moving Averages: Calculates moving averages for volume using various methods (SMA, EMA, WMA, HMA, VWMA), accommodating different trading strategies. This includes settings for adjusting the type of moving average and its period, as well as thresholds for high, medium, and low volume levels.
Volume Spikes Detection: Identifies significant volume spikes based on user-defined multipliers and moving averages, highlighting unusual trading activity.
Volume MA Cloud Settings: Computes general moving averages of volume to track trends and detect deviations. This feature includes options to select different moving average types and adjust thresholds for detecting high volume activity.
Relative Volume (RVOL): Measures current volume relative to historical averages, triggering signals when RVOL exceeds predefined thresholds, indicating notable changes in trading activity.
Entry Conditions: Provides clear long and short entry signals based on combined volume flow conditions and RVOL, offering actionable trading opportunities.
Volume Visualization:
— Bullish Volume Flow: Light and dark green bars indicate bullish volume flow.
— Bearish Volume Flow: Light and dark red bars denote bearish volume flow.
— High Volume Bars: Highlighted in yellow, and extreme volume bars in orange for additional context. These bars are plotted for visual aid and do not directly influence trade signals, focusing instead on the quality and strength of the volume flow.
Alerts: Allows users to create alert notifications for long and short entry signals when the criteria are met, enabling traders to respond promptly to trading opportunities.
Usage:
Overlay: Apply the indicator directly to your price chart to visualise real-time signals and volume conditions.
Customisable: Adjust settings for moving averages, RVOL, and other parameters to match your trading strategy and preferences.
Comparison to VSA Scripts: The "Advanced Volume-Driven Breakout Signals" indicator extends beyond traditional VSA scripts by incorporating a wider range of analytical features. While VSA primarily focuses on volume spread patterns and price action, this indicator offers enhanced functionality with advanced RVOL metrics, customizable moving averages, and detailed volume spike detection, making it a more versatile tool for identifying breakout opportunities and managing trades. It is particularly effective when used alongside key levels and order blocks.

Helacator Ai ThetaHelacator Ai Theta is a state-of-the-art advanced script. It helps the trader find the possibility of a trend reversal in the market. By finding that point at which the three black crows pattern combines with the three white soldiers pattern, it is the most cherished pattern in technical analysis for its signal of strong bullish or bearish momentum. Therefore, it is a very strong predictive tool in the ability of shifting markets.
Key Highlights: Three White Soldiers and Three Black Crows Patterns
The script identifies these candlestick formations that consist of three consecutive candles, either bullish (Three White Soldiers) or bearish (Three Black Crows). These patterns help the trader identify possible trend reversal points as they provide an early signal of a change in the market direction. It is with great care that the script is written to evaluate the position and relationship between the candlesticks for maintaining the accuracy of pattern recognition. Moving Averages for Trend Filtering:
Two important ones used are moving averages for filtering any signals not in accordance with the general trend. The length of these MAs is variable, allowing the traders to be in a position to adapt the script for use under different market conditions. The moving averages ensure that signals are only taken in the direction that supports the general market flow, so it leads to more reliability within the signals. The MAs are not plotted on the chart for the sake of clarity, but they still perform a crucial function in signal filtering and can be displayed optionally for a more detailed investigation. Cooldown filter to reduce over-trading
This is part of what is implemented in the script to prevent generation of consecutive signals too quickly. All this helps to reduce market noise and not overtrade—only when market conditions are at their best. The cooldown period can be set to be adjusted according to the trader's preference, making the script more versatile in its use. Practical Considerations: Educational Purpose: This script is for educational purposes only and should be part of a comprehensive trading approach. Proper risk management techniques should be observed while at the same time taking into consideration prevailing market conditions before making any trading decision.
No Guaranteed Results: The script is aimed at bringing signal accuracy into improvement to align with the broader market trend and reducing noise, but past performance cannot guarantee future success. Traders should use this script within their broad trading approach. Clean and Simple Chart Display: The primary goal of this script is to have a clear and simple display on the chart. The signals are prominently marked with "BUY" and "SELL," and the color of the bars has changed according to the last signal, thus traders can easily read the output. Community and Open Source Open Source Contribution: This script is open for contribution by the TradingView community. Any suggestions regarding improvements are highly welcomed. Candlestick patterns, moving averages, and the combination of the cooldown filter are presented in such a way as to give traders something special, and any modifications or extra touch by the community is appreciated. Attribution and Transparency: The script is based on standard technical analysis principles and for all parts inspired by or derivated from other available open-source scripts, credit is given where it is due. In this way, transparency ensures that the script adheres to TradingView's standards and promotes a collaborative community environment.

Dynamic Cycle Oscillator [Quantigenics]This script is designed to navigate through the ebbs and flows of financial markets. At its core, this script is a sophisticated yet user-friendly tool that helps you identify potential market turning points and trend continuations.
How It Works:
The script operates by plotting two distinct lines and a central histogram that collectively form a band structure: a center line and two outer boundaries, indicating overbought and oversold conditions. The lines are calculated based on a blend of exponential moving averages, which are then refined by a root mean square (RMS) over a specified number of bars to establish the cyclic envelope.
The input parameters:
Fast and Slow Periods:
These determine the sensitivity of the script. Shorter periods react quicker to price changes, while longer periods offer a smoother view.
RMS Length:
This parameter controls the range of the cyclic envelope, influencing the trigger levels for trading signals.
Using the Script:
On your chart, you’ll notice how the Dynamic Cycle Oscillator’s lines and histogram weave through the price action. Here’s how to interpret the movements.
Breakouts and Continuations:
Buy Signal: Consider a long position when the histogram crosses above the upper boundary. This suggests a possible strong bullish run.
Sell Signal: Consider a short position when the histogram crosses below the lower boundary. This suggests a possible strong bearish run.
Reversals:
Buy Signal: Consider a long position when the histogram crosses above the lower boundary. This suggests an oversold market turning bullish.
Sell Signal: Consider a short position when the histogram crosses below the upper boundary. This implies an overbought market turning bearish.
The script’s real-time analysis can serve as a robust addition to your trading strategy, offering clarity in choppy markets and an edge in trend-following systems.
Thanks! Hope you enjoy!
Triple MA HTF Indicator - Dynamic SmoothingThe indicator version of the "Triple MA HTF Strategy - Dynamic Smoothing" strategy script. In summary the indicator consist of 3 higher time frame moving averages. In which the highest timeframe is used for confirmation on the trend (filter). Moving average 1 and 2 are used to enter and exit the trade (crossover / crossunder). The main principle is to detect momentum when the faster MA 1 crosses the slower MA 2 and only trade with the trend (MA3). The dynamic smoothing in the code makes the indicator suitable to trade on lower tramecharts. The indicator script comes with the following features:
options for different types of MA.
options to choose from different timeframes & select # bars of that timeframe to calculate the MA value.
visualizations of the MA using Dynamic Smoothing calculations on lower timecharts. Note that the chart opened should be lower than the selected timeframes in the configurations.
Alerts for entry long, shorts and exits.
For more details on the script and possibility for backtesting the Triple MA HTF indicator I refer to my earlier published strategy script:
