Blockchain Fundamentals: Liquidity & BTC YoYLiquidity & BTC YoY Indicator
Overview:
This indicator calculates the Year-over-Year (YoY) percentage change for two critical metrics: a custom Liquidity Index and Bitcoin's price. The Liquidity Index is derived from a blend of economic and forex data representing the M2 money supply, while the BTC price is obtained from a reliable market source. A dedicated limit(length) function is implemented to handle limited historical data, ensuring that the YoY calculations are available immediately—even when the chart's history is short.
Features Breakdown:
1. Limited Historical Data Workaround
- Functionality: limit(length) The function dynamically adjusts the lookback period when there isn’t enough historical data. This prevents delays in displaying YoY metrics at the beginning of the chart.
2. Liquidity Calculation
- Data Sources: Combines multiple data streams:
USM2, ECONOMICS:CNM2, USDCNY, ECONOMICS:JPM2, USDJPY, ECONOMICS:EUM2, USDEUR
- Formula:
Liquidity Index = USM2 + (CNM2 / USDCNY) + (JPM2 / USDJPY) + (EUM2 / USDEUR)
[b3. Bitcoin Price Calculation
- Data Source: Retrieves Bitcoin's price from BITSTAMP:BTCUSD on the user-selected timeframe for its historical length.
4. Year-over-Year (YoY) Percent Change Calculation
- Methodology:
- The indicator uses a custom function, to autodetect the proper number of bars, based on the selected timeframe.
- It then compares the current value to that from one year ago for both the Liquidity Index and BTC price, calculating the YoY percentage change.
5. Visual Presentation
- Plotting:
- The YoY percentage changes for Liquidity (plotted in blue) and BTC price (plotted in orange) are clearly displayed.
- A horizontal zero line is added for visual alignment, making it easier to compare the two copies of the metric. You add one copy and only display the BTC YoY. Then you add another copy and only display the M2 YoY.
-The zero lines are then used to align the scripts to each other by interposing them. You scale each chart the way you like, then move each copy individually to align both zero lines on top of each other.
This indicator is ideal for analysts and investors looking to monitor macroeconomic liquidity trends alongside Bitcoin's performance, providing immediate insights.
RVMM IndicatorRVMM Indicator
RVMM Indicator combines four indicators: RSI, VWAP, MFI, and Momentum to provide comprehensive technical analysis. This indicator helps traders identify potential market conditions based on the interaction of these indicators.
Components of the RVMM Indicator
1. RSI (Relative Strength Index)
RSI is a momentum indicator that measures the speed and change of price movements. RSI oscillates between 0 and 100 and is used to identify overbought and oversold conditions in the market.
Buy Level: Set at 30. When RSI falls below 30, the market is considered oversold, which may suggest a potential upward trend reversal.
Sell Level: Set at 70. When RSI rises above 70, the market is considered overbought, which may suggest a potential downward trend reversal.
2. VWAP (Volume Weighted Average Price)
VWAP is an indicator that combines price and volume to calculate the average price weighted by volume. VWAP is used to identify support and resistance areas and assess the strength of price movements.
Interpretation: If the price is above the VWAP line, the market is likely in an uptrend. If the price is below the VWAP line, the market is in a downtrend.
3. MFI (Money Flow Index)
MFI is a momentum indicator that considers both price and volume. MFI oscillates between 0 and 100 and is used to identify overbought and oversold conditions in the market.
Oversold Level: Set at 20. When MFI falls below 20, the market is considered oversold.
Overbought Level: Set at 80. When MFI rises above 80, the market is considered overbought.
4. Momentum
Momentum is an indicator that measures the speed of price changes. This indicator is used to identify the strength of a trend.
Interpretation: High momentum values indicate a strong uptrend, while low momentum values indicate a strong downtrend.
How to Use the RVMM Indicator
Interpreting Market Conditions:
RSI : Check RSI values below 30 to identify oversold conditions, and above 70 to identify overbought conditions.
VWAP : Observe whether the price is above or below the VWAP line to determine if the market is in an uptrend or downtrend.
MFI : Check if MFI is below 20 to identify oversold conditions, and above 80 to identify overbought conditions.
Momentum : Analyze momentum values to gauge the strength of the current trend.
Confirming Market Conditions:
Use VWAP, MFI, and Momentum to confirm market conditions identified by RSI.
If the price is above the VWAP line, and MFI and Momentum indicate the strength of the uptrend, the market may be in a bullish phase.
If the price is below the VWAP line, and MFI and Momentum indicate the strength of the downtrend, the market may be in a bearish phase.
Risk Management:
Set stop-loss and take-profit levels based on technical analysis and your trading preferences.
Monitor the market and adjust stop-loss and take-profit levels as market conditions change.
Example of Application
Here is an example of how to use the RVMM Indicator in practice:
Bullish Phase: When the price is above the VWAP line, RSI is below 30, and MFI and Momentum indicate the strength of the uptrend, the market is likely in a bullish phase.
Bearish Phase: When the price is below the VWAP line, RSI is above 70, and MFI and Momentum indicate the strength of the downtrend, the market is likely in a bearish phase.
Fibonacci 3-D🟩 The Fibonacci 3-D indicator is a visual tool that introduces a three-dimensional approach to Fibonacci projections, leveraging market geometry. Unlike traditional Fibonacci tools that rely on two points and project horizontal levels, this indicator leverages slopes derived from three points to introduce a dynamic element into the calculations. The Fibonacci 3-D indicator uses three user-defined points to form a triangular structure, enabling multi-dimensional projections based on the relationships between the triangle’s sides.
This triangular framework forms the foundation for the indicator’s calculations, with each slope (⌳AB, ⌳AC, and ⌳BC) representing the rate of price change between its respective points. By incorporating these slopes into Fibonacci projections, the indicator provides an alternate approach to identifying potential support and resistance levels. The Fibonacci 3-D expands on traditional methods by integrating both historical price trends and recent momentum, offering deeper insights into market dynamics and aligning with broader market geometry.
The indicator operates across three modes, each defined by the triangular framework formed by three user-selected points (A, B, and C):
1-Dimensional (1-D): Fibonacci levels are based on a single side of the triangle, such as AB, AC, or BC. The slope of the selected side determines the angle of the projection, allowing users to analyze linear trends or directional price movements.
2-Dimensional (2-D): Combines two slopes derived from the sides of the triangle, such as AB and BC or AC and BC. This mode adds depth to the projections, accounting for both historical price swings and recent market momentum.
3-Dimensional (3-D): Integrates all three slopes into a unified projection. This mode captures the full geometric relationship between the points, revealing a comprehensive view of geometric market structure.
🌀 THEORY & CONCEPT 🌀
The Fibonacci 3-D indicator builds on the foundational principles of traditional Fibonacci analysis while expanding its scope to capture more intricate market structures. At its core, the indicator operates based on three user-selected points (A, B, and C), forming the vertices of a triangle that provides the structural basis for all calculations. This triangle determines the slopes, projections, and Fibonacci levels, aligning with the unique geometric relationships between the chosen points. By introducing multiple dimensions and leveraging this triangular framework, the indicator enables a deeper examination of price movements.
1️⃣ First Dimension (1-D)
In technical analysis, traditional Fibonacci retracement and extension tools operate as one-dimensional instruments. They rely on two price points, often a swing high and a swing low, to calculate and project horizontal levels at predefined Fibonacci ratios. These levels identify potential support and resistance zones based solely on the price difference between the selected points.
A one-dimensional Fibonacci showing levels derived from two price points (B and C).
The Fibonacci 3-D indicator extends this one-dimensional concept by introducing Ascending and Descending projection options. These options calculate the levels to align with the directional movement of price, creating sloped projections instead of purely horizontal levels.
1-D mode with an ascending projection along the ⌳BC slope aligned to the market's slope. Potential support is observed at 0.236 and 0.382, while resistance appears at 1.0 and 0.5.
2️⃣ Second Dimension (2-D)
The second dimension incorporates a second side of the triangle, introducing relationships between two slopes (e.g., ⌳AB and ⌳BC) to form a more dynamic three-point structure (A, B, and C) on the chart. This structure enables the indicator to move beyond the single-axis (price) calculations of traditional Fibonacci tools. The sides of the triangle (AB, AC, BC) represent slopes calculated as the rate of price change over time, capturing distinct components of market movement, such as trend direction and momentum.
2-D mode of the Fibonacci 3-D indicator using the ⌳AC slope with a descending projection. The Fibonacci projections align closely with observed market behavior, providing support at 0.236 and resistance at 0.618. Unlike traditional zigzag setups, this configuration uses two swing highs (A and B) and a swing low (C). The alignment along the descending slope highlights the geometric relationships between selected points in identifying potential support and resistance levels.
3️⃣ Third Dimension (3-D)
The third dimension expands the analysis by integrating all three slopes into a unified calculation, encompassing the entire triangle structure formed by points A, B, and C. Unlike the second dimension, which analyzes pairwise slope relationships, the 3-D mode reflects the combined geometry of the triangle. Each slope contributes a distinct perspective: AB and AC provide historical context, while BC emphasizes the most recent price movement and is given greater weight in the calculations to ensure projections remain responsive to current dynamics.
Using this integrated framework, the 3-D mode dynamically adjusts Fibonacci projections to balance long-term patterns and short-term momentum. The projections extend outward in alignment with the triangle’s geometry, offering a comprehensive framework for identifying potential support and resistance zones and capturing market structures beyond the scope of simpler 1-D or 2-D modes.
Three-dimensional Fibonacci projection using the ⌳AC slope, aligning closely with the market's directional movement. The projection highlights key levels: resistance at 0.0 and 0.618, and support at 1.0, 0.786, and 0.382.
By leveraging all three slopes simultaneously, the 3-D mode introduces a level of complexity particularly suited for volatile or non-linear markets. The weighted slope calculations ensure no single price movement dominates the analysis, allowing the projections to adapt dynamically to the broader market structure while remaining sensitive to recent momentum.
Three-dimensional ascending projection. In 3D mode, the indicator integrates all three slopes to calculate the angle of projection for the Fibonacci levels. The resulting projections adapt dynamically to the overall geometry of the ABC structure, aligning with the market’s current direction.
🔂 Interactions: Dimensions. Slope Source, Projections, and Orientation
The Dimensions , Projections , and Orientation settings work together to define Fibonacci projections within the triangular framework. Each setting plays a specific role in the geometric analysis of price movements.
♾️ Dimension determines which of the three modes (1-D, 2-D, or 3-D) is used for Fibonacci projections. In 1-D mode, the projections are based on a single side of the triangle, such as AB, AC, or BC. In 2-D mode, two sides are combined, producing levels based on their geometric relationship. The 3-D mode integrates all three sides of the triangle, calculating projections using weighted averages that emphasize the BC side for its relevance to recent price movement while maintaining historical context from the AB and AC sides.
A one-dimensional Fibonacci projection using the ⌳AB slope with a neutral projection. Important levels of interaction are highlighted: repeated resistance at Level 1.0 and repeated support at Levels 0.5 and 0.618. The projection aligns horizontally, reflecting the relationship between points A, B, and C while identifying recurring zones of market structure.
🧮 Slope Source determines which side of the triangle (AB, AC, or BC) serves as the foundation for Fibonacci projections. This selection directly impacts the calculations by specifying the slope that anchors the geometric relationships within the chosen Dimension mode (1-D, 2-D, or 3-D).
In 1-D mode, the selected Source defines the single side used for the projection. In 2-D and 3-D modes, the Source works in conjunction with other settings to refine projections by integrating the selected slope into the multi-dimensional framework.
One-dimensional Fibonacci projection using the ⌳AC Slope Source and Ascending projection. The projection continues on the AC slope line.
🎯 Projection controls the direction and alignment of Fibonacci levels. Neutral projections produce horizontal levels, similar to traditional Fibonacci tools. Ascending and Descending projections adjust the levels along the calculated slope to reflect market trends. These options allow the indicator’s outputs to align with different market behaviors.
An ascending projection along the ⌳BC slope aligns with resistance levels at 1.0, 0.618, and 0.236. The geometric relationship between points A, B, and C illustrates how the projection adapts to market structure, identifying resistance zones that may not be captured by traditional Fibonacci tools.
🧭 Orientation modifies the alignment of the setup area defined by points A, B, and C, which influences Fibonacci projections in 2-D and 3-D modes. In Default mode, the triangle aligns naturally based on the relative positions of points B and C. In Inverted mode, the geometric orientation of the setup area is reversed, altering the slope calculations while preserving the projection direction specified in the Projection setting. In 1-D mode, Orientation has no effect since only one side is used for the projection.
Adjusting the Orientation setting provides alternative views of how Fibonacci levels align with the market's structure. By recalibrating the triangle’s setup, the inverted orientation can highlight different relationships between the sides, providing additional perspectives on support and resistance zones.
2-D inverted. The ⌳AC slope defines the projection, and the inverted orientation adjusts the alignment of the setup area, altering the angles used in level calculations. Key levels are highlighted: resistance at 0.786, strong support at 0.5 and 0.236, and a resistance-turned-support interaction at 0.618.
🛠️ CONFIGURATION AND SETTINGS 🛠️
The Fibonacci 3-D indicator includes configurable settings to adjust its functionality and visual representation. These options include customization of the dimensions (1-D, 2-D, or 3-D), slope calculations, orientations, projections, Fibonacci levels, and visual elements.
When adding the indicator to a new chart, select three reference points (A, B, and C). These are usually set to recent swing points. All three points can be easily changed at any time by clicking on the reference point and dragging it to a new location.
By default, all settings are set to Auto . The indicator uses an internal algorithm to estimate the projections based on the orientation and relative positions of the reference points. However, all values can be overridden to reflect the user's interpretation of the current market geometry.

Notes
Unlike traditional Fibonacci tools that include extensions beyond 1.0 (e.g., 1.618 or 2.618), the Fibonacci 3-D indicator restricts Fibonacci levels to the range between 0.0 and 1.0. This is because the projections are tied directly to the proportional relationships along the sides of the triangle formed by points A, B, and C, rather than extending beyond its defined structure.
The indicator's calculations dynamically sort the user-defined A, B, and C points by time, ensuring point A is always the earliest, point C the latest, and point B the middle. This automatic sorting allows users to freely adjust the points directly on the chart without concern for their sequence, maintaining consistency in the triangular structure.
🖼️ ADDITIONAL CHART EXAMPLES 🖼️
Three-dimensional ⌳AC slope is used with an ascending projection, even as the broader market trend moves downward. Despite the apparent contradiction, the projected Fibonacci levels align closely with price action, identifying zones of support and resistance. These levels highlight smaller countertrend movements, such as pullbacks to 0.382 and 0.236, followed by continuations at resistance levels like 0.618 and 0.786.
In 2-D mode, an ascending projection based on the BC slope highlights the market's geometric structure. A setup triangle, defined by a swing high (A), a swing low (B), and another swing high (C), reveals Fibonacci projections aligning with support at 0.236, 0.382, and 0.5, and resistance at 0.618, 0.786, and 1.0, as shown by the green and red arrows. This demonstrates the ability to uncover dynamic support and resistance levels not calculated in traditional Fibonacci tools.
In 2-D mode with an ascending projection from the ⌳AB slope, price movement is contained within the 0.5 and 0.786 levels. The 0.5 level serves as support, while the 0.786 level acts as resistance, with price action consistently interacting with these boundaries.
An AC (2-D) ascending projection is derived from two swing highs (A and B) and a swing low (C), reflecting a non-linear market structure that deviates from traditional zigzag patterns. The ascending projection aligns closely with the market's upward trajectory, forming a channel between the 0.0 and 0.5 Fibonacci levels. Note how price action interacts with the projected levels, showing support at 0.236 and 0.382, with the 0.5 level acting as a mid-channel equilibrium.
Two-dimensional ascending Fibonacci projection using the ⌳AC slope. Arrows highlight resistance at 0.786 and support at 0.0 and 0.236. The projection follows the ⌳AC slope, reflecting the geometric relationship between points A, B, and C to identify these levels.
Three-dimensional Fibonacci projection using the ⌳AC slope, aligned with the actual market's directional trend. By removing additional Fibonacci levels, the image emphasizes key areas: resistance at Level 0.0 and support at Levels 1.0 and 0.5. The projection dynamically follows the ⌳AC slope, adapting to the market's structure as defined by points A, B, and C.
A three-dimensional configuration uses the ⌳AB slope as the baseline for projections while incorporating the geometric influence of point C. Only the 0.0 and 0.618 levels are enabled, emphasizing the relationship between support at 0.0 and resistance at 0.618. Unlike traditional Fibonacci tools, which operate in a single plane, this setup reveals levels that rely on the triangular relationship between points A, B, and C. The third dimension allows for projections that align more closely with the market’s structure and reflect its multi-dimensional geometry.
The Fibonacci 3-D indicator can adapt to non-traditional point selection. Point A serves as a swing low, while points B and C are swing highs, forming an unconventional configuration. ⌳The BC slope is used in 2-D mode with an inverted orientation, flipping the projection direction and revealing resistance at Level 0.786 and support at Levels 0.618 and 0.5.

300-Candle Weighted Average Zones w/50 EMA SignalsThis indicator is designed to deliver a more nuanced view of price dynamics by combining a custom, weighted price average with a volatility-based zone and a trend filter (in this case, a 50-period exponential moving average). The core concept revolves around capturing the overall price level over a relatively large lookback window (300 candles) but with an intentional bias toward recent market activity (the most recent 20 candles), thereby offering a balance between long-term context and short-term responsiveness. By smoothing this weighted average and establishing a “zone” of standard deviation bands around it, the indicator provides a refined visualization of both average price and its recent volatility envelope. Traders can then look for confluence with a standard trend filter, such as the 50 EMA, to identify meaningful crossover signals that may represent trend shifts or opportunities for entry and exit.
What the Indicator Does:
Weighted Price Average:
Instead of using a simple or exponential moving average, this indicator calculates a custom weighted average price over the past 300 candles. Most historical candles receive a base weight of 1.0, but the most recent 20 candles are assigned a higher weight (for example, a weight of 2.0). This weighting scheme ensures that the calculation is not simply a static lookback average; it actively emphasizes current market conditions. The effect is to generate an average line that is more sensitive to the most recent price swings while still maintaining the historical context of the previous 280 candles.
Smoothing of the Weighted Average:
Once the raw weighted average is computed, an exponential smoothing function (EMA) is applied to reduce noise and produce a cleaner, more stable average line. This smoothing helps traders avoid reacting prematurely to minor price fluctuations. By stabilizing the average line, traders can more confidently identify actual shifts in market direction.
Volatility Zone via Standard Deviation Bands:
To contextualize how far price can deviate from this weighted average, the indicator uses standard deviation. Standard deviation is a statistical measure of volatility—how spread out the price values are around the mean. By adding and subtracting one standard deviation from the smoothed weighted average, the indicator plots an upper band and a lower band, creating a zone or channel. The area between these bands is filled, often with a semi-transparent color, highlighting a volatility corridor within which price and the EMA might oscillate.
This zone is invaluable in visualizing “normal” price behavior. When the 50 EMA line and the weighted average line are both within this volatility zone, it indicates that the market’s short- to mid-term trend and its average pricing are aligned well within typical volatility bounds.
Incorporation of a 50-Period EMA:
The inclusion of a commonly used trend filter, the 50 EMA, adds another layer of context to the analysis. The 50 EMA, being a widely recognized moving average length, is often considered a baseline for intermediate trend bias. It reacts faster than a long-term average (like a 200 EMA) but is still stable enough to filter out the market “chop” seen in very short-term averages.
By overlaying the 50 EMA on this custom weighted average and the surrounding volatility zone, the trader gains a dual-dimensional perspective:
Trend Direction: If the 50 EMA is generally above the weighted average, the short-term trend is gaining bullish momentum; if it’s below, the short-term trend has a bearish tilt.
Volatility Normalization: The bands, constructed from standard deviations, provide a sense of whether the price and the 50 EMA are operating within a statistically “normal” range. If the EMA crosses the weighted average within this zone, it signals a potential trend initiation or meaningful shift, as opposed to a random price spike outside normal volatility boundaries.
Why a Trader Would Want to Use This Indicator:
Contextualized Price Level:
Standard MAs may not fully incorporate the most recent price dynamics in a large lookback window. By weighting the most recent candles more heavily, this indicator ensures that the trader is always anchored to what the market is currently doing, not just what it did 100 or 200 candles ago.
Reduced Whipsaw with Smoothing:
The smoothed weighted average line reduces noise, helping traders filter out inconsequential price movements. This makes it easier to spot genuine changes in trend or sentiment.
Visual Volatility Gauge:
The standard deviation bands create a visual representation of “normal” price movement. Traders can quickly assess if a breakout or breakdown is statistically significant or just another oscillation within the expected volatility range.
Clear Trade Signals with Confirmation:
By integrating the 50 EMA and designing signals that trigger only when the 50 EMA crosses above or below the weighted average while inside the zone, the indicator provides a refined entry/exit criterion. This avoids chasing breakouts that occur in abnormal volatility conditions and focuses on those crossovers likely to have staying power.
How to Use It in an Example Strategy:
Imagine you are a swing trader looking to identify medium-term trend changes. You apply this indicator to a chart of a popular currency pair or a leading tech stock. Over the past few days, the 50 EMA has been meandering around the weighted average line, both confined within the standard deviation zone.
Bullish Example:
Suddenly, the 50 EMA crosses decisively above the weighted average line while both are still hovering within the volatility zone. This might be your cue: you interpret this crossover as the 50 EMA acknowledging the recent upward shift in price dynamics that the weighted average has highlighted. Since it occurred inside the normal volatility range, it’s less likely to be a head-fake. You place a long position, setting an initial stop just below the lower band to protect against volatility.
If the price continues to rise and the EMA stays above the average, you have confirmation to hold the trade. As the price moves higher, the weighted average may follow, reinforcing your bullish stance.
Bearish Example:
On the flip side, if the 50 EMA crosses below the weighted average line within the zone, it suggests a subtle but meaningful change in trend direction to the downside. You might short the asset, placing your protective stop just above the upper band, expecting that the statistically “normal” level of volatility will contain the price action. If the price does break above those bands later, it’s a sign your trade may not work out as planned.
Other Indicators for Confluence:
To strengthen the reliability of the signals generated by this weighted average zone approach, traders may want to combine it with other technical studies:
Volume Indicators (e.g., Volume Profile, OBV):
Confirm that the trend crossover inside the volatility zone is supported by volume. For instance, an uptrend crossover combined with increasing On-Balance Volume (OBV) or volume spikes on up candles signals stronger buying pressure behind the price action.
Momentum Oscillators (e.g., RSI, Stochastics):
Before taking a crossover signal, check if the RSI is above 50 and rising for bullish entries, or if the Stochastics have turned down from overbought levels for bearish entries. Momentum confirmation can help ensure that the trend change is not just an isolated random event.
Market Structure Tools (e.g., Pivot Points, Swing High/Low Analysis):
Identify if the crossover event coincides with a break of a previous pivot high or low. A bullish crossover inside the zone aligned with a break above a recent swing high adds further strength to your conviction. Conversely, a bearish crossover confirmed by a breakdown below a previous swing low can make a short trade setup more compelling.
Volume-Weighted Average Price (VWAP):
Comparing where the weighted average zone lies relative to VWAP can provide institutional insight. If the bullish crossover happens while the price is also holding above VWAP, it can mean that the average participant in the market is in profit and that the trend is likely supported by strong hands.
This indicator serves as a tool to balance long-term perspective, short-term adaptability, and volatility normalization. It can be a valuable addition to a trader’s toolkit, offering enhanced clarity and precision in detecting meaningful shifts in trend, especially when combined with other technical indicators and robust risk management principles.
Adaptive ATR Trailing Stops█ Introduction
This script is based on the average true range (ATR) and has been improved with the HHV or LLV. The script supports the trader to have his stoploss trailed. In this case, the stoploss is dynamic and can be adjusted with each candleclose.
█ What Does This Indicator Do?
The ATR SL Trailing Indicator helps you dynamically adjust your stop-loss levels based on market movements. It uses market volatility to calculate trailing stop-loss levels, ensuring you can secure profits or minimize losses. The indicator creates two lines:
A green/red line for long positions (when you’re betting on prices going up).
A green/red line for short positions (when you’re betting on prices going down).
█ Key Concepts: How Does the Indicator Work?
The Average True Range (ATR) measures market volatility, showing how much the price moves over a specific period.
A high ATR indicates a volatile market (large price swings), while a low ATR indicates a quiet market (smaller price changes).
Why is ATR important? ATR helps dynamically adjust the distance between your stop-loss and the current price. In volatile markets, the stop-loss is placed further away to avoid being triggered by short-term fluctuations. In quieter markets, the stop-loss is set closer to the price.
The HHV is the highest price over a specific period. For long positions, the indicator uses the highest price minus an ATR-based value to determine the stop-loss level.
Why is HHV important? HHV ensures the stop-loss for long positions only moves up when the price reaches new highs. Once the price starts falling, the stop-loss remains unchanged to lock in profits or minimize losses.
The LLV is the lowest price over a specific period. For short positions, the indicator uses the lowest price plus an ATR-based value to determine the stop-loss level.
Why is LLV important? LLV ensures the stop-loss for short positions only moves down when the price reaches new lows. Once the price starts rising, the stop-loss remains unchanged to lock in profits or minimize losses.
█ How Does the Indicator Work?
For Long Positions:
The indicator sets the stop-loss below the current price, based on:
Market volatility (ATR).
The highest price over a specific period (HHV).
The line turns green when the current price is above the stop-loss.
The line turns red when the price drops below the stop-loss, signaling you may need to exit the trade.
For Short Positions:
The indicator sets the stop-loss above the current price, based on:
*Market volatility (ATR).
*The lowest price over a specific period (LLV).
*The line turns green when the current price is below the stop-loss.
*The line turns red when the price moves above the stop-loss, signaling you may need to exit the trade.
█ Advantages of the ATR SL Trailing Indicator
*Dynamic and adaptive: Automatically adjusts stop-loss levels based on market volatility.
*Visual clarity: Green and red lines clearly indicate whether your position is safe or at risk.
*Effective risk management: Helps you lock in profits and minimize losses without the need for constant manual adjustments.
█ When Should You Use This Indicator?
*If you practice trend-based trading and want your stop-losses to automatically adapt to market movements.
*In volatile markets, to avoid being stopped out by short-term fluctuations.
*When you want to implement efficient risk management without manually adjusting your positions.
█ Inputs
The user can set the indicator for both longs and shorts. This is particularly important because the calculation is different. The HHV is used for longs and the LLV for shorts. The user can therefore set the period/length for the ATR on the one hand and the HHV/LLV on the other. He also has a multiplier, which can also be customized. The multiplier multiplies the price change of each individual candle.
█ Color Change
If the SL is trailed and the price breaks a line, the color changes. In this case, it would have executed the SL on an open trade.

simple swing indicator-KTRNSE:NIFTY
1. Pivot High/Low as Lines:
Purpose: Identifies local peaks (pivot highs) and troughs (pivot lows) in price and draws horizontal lines at these levels.
How it Works:
A pivot high occurs when the price is higher than the surrounding bars (based on the pivotLength parameter).
A pivot low occurs when the price is lower than the surrounding bars.
These pivots are drawn as horizontal lines at the price level of the pivot.
Visualization:
Pivot High: A red horizontal line is drawn at the price level of the pivot high.
Pivot Low: A green horizontal line is drawn at the price level of the pivot low.
Example:
Imagine the price is trending up, and at some point, it forms a peak. The script identifies this peak as a pivot high and draws a red line at the price of that peak. Similarly, if the price forms a trough, the script will draw a green line at the low point.
2. Moving Averages (20-day and 50-day):
Purpose: Plots the 20-day and 50-day simple moving averages (SMA) on the chart.
How it Works:
The 20-day SMA smooths the closing price over the last 20 days.
The 50-day SMA smooths the closing price over the last 50 days.
These lines provide an overview of short-term and long-term price trends.
Visualization:
20-day SMA: A blue line showing the 20-day moving average.
50-day SMA: An orange line showing the 50-day moving average.
Example:
When the price is above both moving averages, it indicates an uptrend. If the price crosses below these averages, it might signal a downtrend.
3. Supertrend:
Purpose: The Supertrend is an indicator based on the Average True Range (ATR) and is used to track the market trend.
How it Works:
When the market is in an uptrend, the Supertrend line will be green.
When the market is in a downtrend, the Supertrend line will be red.
Visualization:
Uptrend: The Supertrend line will be plotted in green.
Downtrend: The Supertrend line will be plotted in red.
Example:
If the price is above the Supertrend, the market is considered to be in an uptrend, and if the price is below the Supertrend, the market is in a downtrend.
4. Momentum (Rate of Change):
Purpose: Measures the rate at which the price changes over a set period, showing if the momentum is positive or negative.
How it Works:
The Rate of Change (ROC) measures how much the price has changed over a certain number of periods (e.g., 14).
Positive ROC indicates upward momentum, and negative ROC indicates downward momentum.
Visualization:
Positive ROC: A purple line is plotted above the zero line.
Negative ROC: A purple line is plotted below the zero line.
Example:
If the ROC line is above zero, it means the price is increasing, suggesting bullish momentum. If the ROC is below zero, it indicates bearish momentum.
5. Volume:
Purpose: Displays the volume of traded assets, giving insight into the strength of price movements.
How it Works:
The script will color the volume bars based on whether the price closed higher or lower than the previous bar.
Green bars indicate bullish volume (closing price higher than the previous bar), and red bars indicate bearish volume (closing price lower than the previous bar).
Visualization:
Bullish Volume: Green volume bars when the price closes higher.
Bearish Volume: Red volume bars when the price closes lower.
Example:
If you see a green volume bar, it suggests that the market is participating in an uptrend, and the price has closed higher than the previous period. Red bars indicate a downtrend or selling pressure.
6. MACD (Moving Average Convergence Divergence):
Purpose: The MACD is a trend-following momentum indicator that shows the relationship between two moving averages of the price.
How it Works:
The MACD Line is the difference between the 12-period EMA (Exponential Moving Average) and the 26-period EMA.
The Signal Line is the 9-period EMA of the MACD Line.
The MACD Histogram shows the difference between the MACD line and the Signal line.
Visualization:
MACD Line: A blue line representing the difference between the 12-period and 26-period EMAs.
Signal Line: An orange line representing the 9-period EMA of the MACD line.
MACD Histogram: A red or green histogram that shows the difference between the MACD line and the Signal line.
Example:
When the MACD line crosses above the Signal line, it’s considered a bullish signal. When the MACD line crosses below the Signal line, it’s considered a bearish signal.
Full Chart Example:
Imagine you're looking at a price chart with all the indicators:
Pivot High/Low Lines are drawn as red and green horizontal lines.
20-day and 50-day SMAs are plotted as blue and orange lines, respectively.
Supertrend shows a green or red line indicating the trend.
Momentum (ROC) is shown as a purple line oscillating around zero.
Volume bars are green or red based on whether the close is higher or lower.
MACD appears as a blue line and orange line, with a red or green histogram showing the MACD vs. Signal line difference.
How the Indicators Work Together:
Trend Confirmation: If the price is above the Supertrend line and both SMAs are trending up, it indicates a strong bullish trend.
Momentum: If the ROC is positive and the MACD line is above the Signal line, it further confirms bullish momentum.
Volume: Increasing volume, especially with green bars, suggests that the trend is being supported by active participation.
By using these combined indicators, you can get a comprehensive view of the market's trend, momentum, and potential reversal points (via pivot highs and lows).
Fractal Trend Detector [Skyrexio]Introduction
Fractal Trend Detector leverages the combination of Williams fractals and Alligator Indicator to help traders to understand with the high probability what is the current trend: bullish or bearish. It visualizes the potential uptrend with the coloring bars in green, downtrend - in red color. Indicator also contains two additional visualizations, the strong uptrend and downtrend as the green and red zones and the white line - trend invalidation level (more information in "Methodology and it's justification" paragraph)
Features
Optional strong up and downtrends visualization: with the specified parameter in settings user can add/hide the green and red zones of the strong up and downtrends.
Optional trend invalidation level visualization: with the specified parameter in settings user can add/hide the white line which shows the current trend invalidation price.
Alerts: user can set up the alert and have notifications when uptrend/downtrend has been started, strong uptrend/downtrend started.
Methodology and it's justification
In this script we apply the concept of trend given by Bill Williams in his book "Trading Chaos". This approach leverages the Alligator and Fractals in conjunction. Let's briefly explain these two components.
The Williams Alligator, created by Bill Williams, is a technical analysis tool used to identify trends and potential market reversals. It consists of three moving averages, called the jaw, teeth, and lips, which represent different time periods:
Jaw (Blue Line): The slowest line, showing a 13-period smoothed moving average shifted 8 bars forward.
Teeth (Red Line): The medium-speed line, an 8-period smoothed moving average shifted 5 bars forward.
Lips (Green Line): The fastest line, a 5-period smoothed moving average shifted 3 bars forward.
When the lines are spread apart and aligned, the "alligator" is "awake," indicating a strong trend. When the lines intertwine, the "alligator" is "sleeping," signaling a non-trending or range-bound market. This indicator helps traders identify when to enter or avoid trades.
Williams Fractals, introduced by Bill Williams, are a technical analysis tool used to identify potential reversal points on a price chart. A fractal is a series of at least five consecutive bars where the middle bar has the highest high (for a up fractal) or the lowest low (for a down fractal), compared to the two bars on either side.
Key Points:
Up fractal: Formed when the middle bar shows a higher high than the two preceding and two following bars, signaling a potential turning point downward.
Down fractal: Formed when the middle bar has a lower low than the two surrounding bars, indicating a potential upward reversal.
Fractals are often used with other indicators to confirm trend direction or reversal, helping traders make more informed trading decisions.
How we can use its combination? Let's explain the uptrend example. The up fractal breakout to the upside can be interpret as bullish sign, there is a high probability that uptrend has just been started. It can be explained as following: the up fractal created is the potential change in market's behavior. A lot of traders made a decision to sell and it created the pullback with the fractal at the top. But if price is able to reach the fractal's top and break it, this is a high probability sign that market "changed his opinion" and bullish trend has been started. The moment of breaking is the potential changing to the uptrend. Here is another one important point, this breakout shall happen above the Alligator's teeth line. If not, this crossover doesn't count and the downtrend potentially remaining. The inverted logic is true for the down fractals and downtrend.
According to this methodology we received the high probability up and downtrend changes, but we can even add it. If current trend established by the indicator as the uptrend and alligator's lines have the following order: lips is higher than teeth, teeth is higher than jaw, script count it as a strong uptrend and start print the green zone - zone between lips and jaw. It can be used as a high probability support of the current bull market. The inverted logic can be used for bearish trend and red zones: if lips is lower than teeth and teeth is lower than jaw it's interpreted by the indicator as a strong down trend.
Indicator also has the trend invalidation line (white line). If current bar is green and market condition is interpreted by the script as an uptrend you will see the invalidation line below current price. This is the price level which shall be crossed by the price to change up trend to down trend according to algorithm. This level is recalculated on every candle. The inverted logic is valid for downtrend.
How to use indicator
Apply it to desired chart and time frame. It works on every time frame.
Setup the settings with enabling/disabling visualization of strong up/downtrend zones and trend invalidation line. "Show Strong Bullish/Bearish Trends" and "Show Trend Invalidation Price" checkboxes in the settings. By default they are turned on.
Analyze the price action. Indicator colored candle in green if it's more likely that current state is uptrend, in red if downtrend has the high probability to be now. Green zones between two lines showing if current uptrend is likely to be strong. This zone can be used as a high probability support on the uptrend. The red zone show high probability of strong downtrend and can be used as a resistance. White line is showing the level where uptrend or downtrend is going be invalidated according to indicator's algorithm. If current bar is green invalidation line will be below the current price, if red - above the current price.
Set up the alerts if it's needed. Indicator has four custom alerts called "Uptrend has been started" when current bar closed as green and the previous was not green, "Downtrend has been started" when current bar closed red and the previous was not red, "Uptrend became strong" if script started printing the green zone "Downtrend became strong" if script started printing the red zone.

Sequence Waves [OmegaTools]the sequence waves indicator, developed by omegatools, is a multi-functional tool designed to detect trends, sequences, and potential reversal signals based on price movements and volume. this indicator has two main modes, "trend" and "sequence," which determine how the indicator calculates directional changes. additional enhancements in this version include reversal signals, allowing users to identify potential long and short opportunities with specific entry cues.
input parameters
mode (mode): chooses the calculation basis for directional movement.
- "trend": uses a midline calculated from the highest high and lowest low over the "trend mode length" period to assess if the price is in an upward or downward trend.
- "sequence": compares the current price to the closing price of the previous "sequence mode length" period to detect shifts in direction.
counter mode (modec): sets whether the counter increments by a fixed amount (1 or -1) or the volume of the bar, impacting the indicator’s sensitivity.
- "fixed": increments or decrements the counter by 1.
- "volume": increments or decrements based on the period’s volume, making the indicator more responsive to high-volume periods.
percentile length (lntp): defines the lookback period for calculating overbought and oversold thresholds using a percentile method. shorter lengths make ob/os levels more reactive.
sensitivity (sens): controls the percentile-based ob/os thresholds, ranging from 10 to 100. higher values narrow ob/os zones, while lower values widen them, impacting signal frequency.
trend mode length (lnt1): sets the period length for midline calculation in trend mode, defaulting to 21. longer periods smooth the midline for detecting major trends.
sequence mode length (lnt2): sets the lookback period in sequence mode, with a default of 4. shorter lengths capture more frequent directional changes, while longer lengths smooth signals.
visual colors:
- up color (upc): sets the color for upward movements.
- down color (dnc): sets the color for downward movements.
calculation logic
midline calculation: in trend mode, a midline is derived from the average of the highest high and lowest low over the "trend mode length" period, acting as a reference to detect upward or downward movements.
counter calculation:
- in trend mode, if the close price is above the midline, the counter increases (or volume if volume mode is selected). it decreases when the price is below.
- in sequence mode, the counter increases if the close is above the closing price from "sequence mode length" periods ago and decreases if below.
the counter resets to zero on direction changes, creating clear directional transitions.
overbought/oversold percentiles: separate arrays track the counter’s values each time the direction changes, creating historical up and down values. ob and os thresholds are dynamically determined based on these arrays, with sizes limited by the percentile length and sensitivity inputs.
reversal signals: two new variables, "long" and "short," detect potential reversal points when the counter crosses specific thresholds:
- long: a long signal is generated when the counter switches to positive and exceeds the down percentile.
- short: a short signal is triggered when the counter switches to negative and exceeds the up percentile.
visual and display elements
counter plot: plots the counter value on the chart with color-coded columns, making it easy to spot directional momentum.
up and down percentiles: displays overbought (up percentile) and oversold (down percentile) thresholds to identify potential reversal zones.
regime background: the background color changes based on market regime:
- bullish (up percentile > down percentile): greenish background.
- bearish (down percentile > up percentile): reddish background.
- neutral (both percentiles equal): grayish background.
reversal signals: plotted as small triangles on the chart for visual confirmation of potential long (triangle up) and short (triangle down) reversal signals.
obs background: changes color when the counter exceeds ob or os thresholds, creating a visual cue for extreme market conditions:
- overbought: background changes to a faint down color.
- oversold: background changes to a faint up color.
status table: displayed on the right side of the chart, providing real-time status information:
- status: shows "overbought," "oversold," "long," "short," or "none" based on the current counter position.
- regime: indicates whether the market is in a "bullish," "bearish," or "neutral" state based on the percentile comparison.
- percentile up/down: displays the current up and down percentiles for quick reference.
how to use the indicator
trend following: in trend mode, use the midline-based counter to gauge if the market is in an uptrend (positive counter) or downtrend (negative counter).
reversal detection: the ob/os thresholds assist in identifying potential reversal points. when the counter exceeds the up percentile, it may indicate an overbought state, suggesting a bearish reversal. similarly, dropping below the down percentile may indicate an oversold state, suggesting a bullish reversal.
entry signals: use the long and short reversal signals for potential entry points, particularly in trending or range-bound markets. these signals are indicated by up and down triangles.
sequence trading: in sequence mode, the indicator tracks shorter-term directional shifts, making it suitable for detecting smaller momentum patterns based on recent price comparisons.
volume sensitivity: selecting volume mode enhances sensitivity to high-volume moves, allowing it to detect stronger market activity in both trend and sequence modes.
the sequence waves indicator is suited to both short-term and long-term traders. it allows for detailed trend analysis, reversal detection, and dynamic ob/os signals. the inclusion of visual reversal cues makes it a flexible tool adaptable to a variety of trading strategies.
Sessions Full Markets [TradingFinder] Forex Stocks Index 7 Time🔵 Introduction
In global financial markets, particularly in FOREX and stocks, precise timing of trading sessions plays a crucial role in the success of traders. Each trading session—Asian, European, and American—has its own unique characteristics in terms of volatility and trading volume.
The Asian session (Tokyo), Sydney session, Shanghai session, European session (London and Frankfurt), and American session (New York AM and New York PM) are examples of these trading sessions, each of which opens and closes at specific times.
This session indicator also includes a Time Convertor, enabling users to view FOREX market hours based on GMT, UTC, EST, and local time. Another valuable feature of this indicator is the automatic detection of Daylight Saving Time (DST), which automatically applies time changes for the New York, London, and Sydney sessions.

Gaussian Acceleration ArrayIndicators play a role in analyzing price action, trends, and potential reversals. Among many of these, velocity and acceleration have held a significant place due to their ability to provide insight into momentum and rate of change. This indicator takes the old calculation and tweaks it with gaussian smoothing and logarithmic function to ensure proper scaling.
A Brief on Velocity and Acceleration: The concept of velocity in trading refers to the speed at which price changes over time, while acceleration is the rate of change(ROC) of velocity. Early momentum indicators like the RSI and MACD laid foundation for understanding price velocity. However, as markets evolve so do we as technical analysts, we seek the most advanced tools.
The Acceleration/Deceleration Oscillator, introduced by Bill Williams, was one of the early attempts to measure acceleration. It helped gauge whether the market was gaining or losing momentum. Over time more specific tools like the "Awesome Oscillator"(AO) emerged, which has a set length on the datasets measured.
Gaussian Functions: Named after the mathematician Carl Friedrich Gauss, the Gaussian function describes a bell-shaped curve, often referred to as the "normal distribution." In trading these functions are applied to smooth data and reduce noise, focusing on underlying patterns.
The Gaussian Acceleration Array leverages this function to create a smoothed representation of market acceleration.
How does it work?
This indicator calculates acceleration based the highs and lows of each dataset
Once the weighted average for velocity is determined, its rate of change essentially becomes the acceleration
It then plots multiple lines with customizable variance from the primary selected length
Practical Tips:
The Gaussian Acceleration Array offers various customizable parameters, including the sample period, smoothing function, and array variance. Experiment with these settings to tailor it to preferred timeframes and styles.
The color-coded lines and background zones make it easier to interpret the indicator at a glance. The backgrounds indicate increasing or decreasing momentum simply as a visual aid while the lines state how the velocity average is performing. Combining this with other tools can signal shifts in market dynamics.
Risk Appetite & Directional Bias [NariCapitalTrading]Guide to the Risk Appetite & Directional Bias Indicator
This indicator is a tool designed to capture the relationship between Bitcoin and the S&P 500 (but could be any two assets of your choice, theoretically). This post aims to provide a detailed overview of the logic, components, and implementation of the indicator.
1. Introduction
This indicator leverages the relationship between Bitcoin and the S&P 500 to provide insights into the directional bias of the S&P 500 based on Bitcoin's movements. The premise is that Bitcoin, due to its 24/7 trading nature, often leads SP500 price movements. By dynamically adjusting the influence (beta) of Bitcoin based on historical data, this indicator aims to capture shifts in market sentiment or "risk appetite."
2. Core Concepts
a. Dynamic Weighting
The indicator uses a dynamic weighting mechanism to adjust the influence of Bitcoin on the S&P 500. The weight is based on the correlation between Bitcoin's and the S&P 500's returns, normalized by their respective volatilities.
// Calculate rolling correlation between Bitcoin and S&P 500
btcSp500Correlation = ta.correlation(btcChange, sp500Change, lookbackPeriod)
// Dynamic adjustment factor for Bitcoin influence on S&P 500
dynamicBtcWeight = btcWeightInput * btcSp500Correlation / normalizedBtcVolatility
b. Percentage Change and Volatility
Percentage change and volatility are critical components of the indicator. They are calculated for both Bitcoin and the S&P 500 to understand their respective behaviors over a defined lookback period.
// Function to calculate percentage change
f_change(src) =>
ta.change(src) * 100
// Function to calculate volatility
f_volatility(src, period) =>
ta.stdev(f_change(src), period)
These functions calculate the percentage change and standard deviation (volatility) of the asset prices.
c. Normalization
Normalization is applied to Bitcoin's volatility relative to the S&P 500's volatility to ensure that the influence of Bitcoin is appropriately scaled. This prevents Bitcoin's typically higher volatility from overwhelming the analysis.
// Normalize Bitcoin's volatility against S&P 500's volatility
normalizedBtcVolatility = sp500Volatility != 0 ? btcVolatility / sp500Volatility : na
3. Indicator Logic
The indicator's logic involves combining the historical change of the S&P 500 with the dynamically weighted influence of Bitcoin's change. The output is an "adjusted change" that reflects this combined impact.
// Combine the Bitcoin influence with S&P 500's historical change
adjustedChange = sp500Change + (dynamicBtcWeight * btcChange)
This adjusted change is used to determine the directional bias, categorized as "Bullish," "Bearish," or "Neutral."
4. Visualization
The indicator visualizes the predicted price of the S&P 500 based on the adjusted change. It uses different colors to represent different biases.
// Plot the predicted price with color indication based on bias
plotColor = bias == "Bullish" ? color.green : bias == "Bearish" ? color.red : color.blue
plot(predictedPrice, color=plotColor, title="Predicted SP500 Price", linewidth=2, style=plot.style_line)
Additionally, the adjusted change is plotted as a histogram.
5. Use Cases and Practical Applications
The indicator is particularly useful for day traders and swing traders who seek to anticipate market moves before they are fully reflected in traditional equity markets. This may/will require some parameter tuning and optimization on your part (the user).
For other researchers and quants: the dynamic weighting mechanism offers an example of how cross-asset relationships can be modeled and incorporated into pinescript studies.
6. Customization
Users can customize several aspects of the indicator:
Lookback Period: Defines the period over which correlation and volatility are calculated.
EMA Period: Adjusts the sensitivity of the indicator.
Initial Weight of Bitcoin Influence: Sets the starting point for Bitcoin's impact, which is then dynamically adjusted.
Envelope with Kernel Selection [CHE] Envelope with Kernel Selection Indicator Overview
The "Envelope with Kernel Selection " is a versatile technical analysis tool designed to help traders identify market trends and trading signals. This indicator allows traders to spot signals in two primary ways: through the plotshape markers, which indicate specific price crossovers, and via the background color, which visually represents the current market trend.
Key Features and Advantages:
1. Dual Signal Mechanism:
- Plotshape Markers: The indicator uses visual markers (arrows) on the chart to highlight when the price crosses above or below the envelope bands. These markers act as clear trade signals, helping traders identify potential buy or sell opportunities.
- Background Color for Trend Identification: In addition to plotshape markers, the indicator can also use the chart's background color to indicate overall market direction. A green background suggests a bullish trend, while a red background indicates a bearish trend. This dual signal mechanism provides traders with both precise entry/exit points and an easy-to-read trend indicator.
2. Customizable Background Color Feature:
- Background Color Toggle: The background color feature can be turned on or off using the `bgColorEnabled = input.bool(true, "Background Color On / Off")` setting. When this setting is enabled (`true`), the background color dynamically changes based on the market's trend, offering an additional visual cue. If the setting is disabled (`false`), the background color remains neutral, allowing traders to focus solely on the plotshape signals or other chart elements.
- Visual Clarity: When enabled, the background color helps traders quickly gauge the market's trend without analyzing detailed chart patterns, making it easier to identify whether the market is in a bullish or bearish phase.
3. Customizable Kernel Selection for Enhanced Smoothing:
- Diverse Kernel Options: The indicator provides six different kernel functions (Linear, Exponential, Epanechnikov, Triangular, Cosine, Gauss) for smoothing price data. Traders can select the kernel that best suits their analysis style, allowing for precise adjustment to market conditions.
- Improved Trend Accuracy: By choosing the appropriate kernel function, traders can either focus on short-term price movements or capture broader trends more effectively, thus improving the accuracy of their market analysis.
4. Non-Repainting Signals for Reliability:
- Consistency in Signals: The indicator’s non-repainting nature ensures that once a signal (such as a crossover or trend change) is generated, it does not change with future price movements. This consistency is crucial for making reliable trading decisions, especially when backtesting or executing strategies based on historical data.
- Dependable Trading: Traders can rely on the signals provided by this indicator to remain consistent, which enhances confidence in decision-making and reduces the risk of false signals.
5. Dynamic Trend Bands:
- Adaptive Support and Resistance: The indicator calculates and displays upper and lower trend bands around a midline based on the selected kernel function. These bands act as dynamic support and resistance levels, guiding traders in identifying potential reversal zones.
- Versatility in Various Market Conditions: The bands can be adjusted for different market volatilities using the bandwidth setting, making the indicator suitable for both trending and ranging markets.
6. Clear Visual Indicators for Crossovers:
- Easy-to-Spot Trade Signals: The indicator uses arrows to mark when the price crosses the upper or lower bands. A green arrow indicates a potential buy signal, while a red arrow indicates a potential sell signal. These visual markers simplify the identification of entry and exit points.
- Enhanced Precision: By clearly marking crossover points, the indicator helps traders execute trades with greater precision, reducing the likelihood of missed opportunities.
---
In summary, the "Envelope with Kernel Selection " offers traders a powerful combination of visual signals through plotshape markers and background color changes. Its customizable kernel selection, non-repainting nature, and dynamic trend bands make it a comprehensive and reliable tool for market analysis and trading. Whether you prefer clear trade signals or broader trend identification, this indicator provides the flexibility and accuracy needed to make informed trading decisions.

Standard Error Bands**Standard Error Bands Indicator: A Statistically Robust Tool for Trend Analysis**
The Standard Error Bands (SEB) indicator is a powerful technical analysis tool designed to help traders identify and assess trends with greater accuracy. Unlike traditional band indicators (e.g., Bollinger Bands) that rely on price averages, SEB leverages linear regression and statistical measures of volatility to offer deeper insights into market dynamics.
**How It Works**
1. **Linear Regression:** The indicator first calculates a linear regression line to model the underlying price trend. This line represents the "best fit" of price data over the specified lookback period.
2. **Standard Error:** Next, it calculates the standard error of the regression. This statistical measure quantifies the average distance between actual prices and the regression line, effectively acting as a volatility gauge.
3. **Smoothing:** Both the linear regression line and the standard error values are smoothed using a Simple Moving Average (SMA) to reduce noise and enhance the visual clarity of the bands.
4. **Band Construction:** The upper and lower bands are formed by adding/subtracting a multiple of the smoothed standard error from the smoothed linear regression line. The default multiplier is 2, representing approximately 95% of price action expected within the bands under normal market conditions.
**Key Insights**
* **Trend Strength:** Tight bands suggest a strong, well-defined trend with low volatility. Prices tend to adhere closely to the regression line, indicating a high probability of trend continuation.
* **Trend Weakness/Change:** Widening or expanding bands signal increased volatility and potential trend weakness. Prices deviating from the regression line may suggest an impending trend reversal or a shift into a sideways consolidation phase.
* **Entry/Exit Signals:**
* Consider entering a trade when prices break out of the bands in the direction of the trend, especially if the bands were previously tight.
* Conversely, consider exiting a trade when prices pierce the bands against the trend or when the bands start to widen significantly.
**Use Cases**
* **Trend Identification:** SEB can help traders identify trends earlier and more accurately than moving average-based indicators.
* **Trend Confirmation:** The bands can be used to confirm the validity and strength of an existing trend.
* **Volatility Assessment:** Changes in band width provide valuable insights into market volatility, aiding risk management decisions.
* **Entry/Exit Timing:** SEB can be incorporated into trading strategies to generate timely entry and exit signals.
**Important Considerations**
* **Parameter Optimization:** Experiment with different lookback periods, smoothing values, and standard error multipliers to find the optimal settings for your preferred trading style and market conditions.
* **Supplementary Indicators:** Combine SEB with other technical indicators (e.g., momentum oscillators, volume analysis) for a more comprehensive market assessment.
* **Backtesting:** Thoroughly backtest any SEB-based trading strategy to ensure its effectiveness before deploying it in live markets.
**Disclaimer:** Technical indicators like SEB are valuable tools but should not be used in isolation. Always consider price action or fundamental factors and risk management principles when making trading decisions.
Dynamic Gradient Filter
Sigmoid Functions:
History and Mathematical Basis:
Sigmoid functions have a rich history in mathematics and are widely used in various fields, including statistics, machine learning, and signal processing.
The term "sigmoid" originates from the Greek words "sigma" (meaning "S-shaped") and "eidos" (meaning "form" or "type").
The sigmoid curve is characterized by its smooth S-shaped appearance, which allows it to map any real-valued input to a bounded output range, typically between 0 and 1.
The most common form of the sigmoid function is the logistic function:
Logistic Function (σ):
Defined as σ(x) = 1 / (1 + e^(-x)), where:
'x' is the input value,
'e' is Euler's number (approximately 2.71828).
This function was first introduced by Belgian mathematician Pierre François Verhulst in the 1830s to model population growth with limiting factors.
It gained popularity in the early 20th century when statisticians like Ronald Fisher began using it in regression analysis.
Specific Sigmoid Functions Used in the Indicator:
sig(val):
The 'sig' function in this indicator is a modified version of the logistic function, clamping a value between 0 and 1 on the sigmoid curve.
siga(val):
The 'siga' function adjusts values between -1 and 1 on the sigmoid curve, offering a centered variation of the sigmoid effect.
sigmoid(val):
The 'sigmoid' function provides a standard implementation of the logistic function, calculating the sigmoid value of the input data.
Adaptive Smoothing Factor:
The ' adaptiveSmoothingFactor(gradient, k)' function computes a dynamic smoothing factor for the filter based on the gradient of the price data and the user-defined sensitivity parameter 'k' .
Gradient:
The gradient represents the rate of change in price, calculated as the absolute difference between the current and previous close prices.
Sensitivity (k):
The 'k' parameter adjusts how quickly the filter reacts to changes in the gradient. Higher values of 'k' lead to a more responsive filter, while lower values result in smoother outputs.
Usage in the Indicator:
The "close" value refers to the closing price of each period in the chart's time frame
The indicator calculates the gradient by measuring the absolute difference between the current "close" price and the previous "close" price.
This gradient represents the strength or magnitude of the price movement within the chosen time frame.
The "close" value plays a pivotal role in determining the dynamic behavior of the "Dynamic Gradient Filter," as it directly influences the smoothing factor.
What Makes This Special:
The "Dynamic Gradient Filter" indicator stands out due to its adaptive nature and responsiveness to changing market conditions.
Dynamic Smoothing Factor:
The indicator's dynamic smoothing factor adjusts in real-time based on the rate of change in price (gradient) and the user-defined sensitivity '(k)' parameter.
This adaptability allows the filter to respond promptly to both minor fluctuations and significant price movements.
Smoothed Price Action:
The final output of the filter is a smoothed representation of the price action, aiding traders in identifying trends and potential reversals.
Customizable Sensitivity:
Traders can adjust the 'Sensitivity' parameter '(k)' to suit their preferred trading style, making the indicator versatile for various strategies.
Visual Clarity:
The plotted "Dynamic Gradient Filter" line on the chart provides a clear visual guide, enhancing the understanding of market dynamics.
Usage:
Traders and analysts can utilize the "Dynamic Gradient Filter" to:
Identify trends and reversals in price movements.
Filter out noise and highlight significant price changes.
Fine-tune trading strategies by adjusting the sensitivity parameter.
Enhance visual analysis with a dynamically adjusting filter line on the chart.

No Wick Bull/Bear Candlesticks with Arrow premiumNo Wick Bull/Bear Candlesticks with Arrow premium
This script is for a custom trading indicator called "No Wick Bull/Bear Candlesticks with Arrow premium" developed by ClearTradingMind. It is designed for use with trading platforms that support scripting, such as TradingView. This indicator combines several technical analysis tools to help traders identify potential buy and sell signals in a financial market.
Key Components of the Indicator:
Moving Average (MA): The script allows users to select from various types of moving averages (SMA, EMA, HMA, etc.), which smooth out price data to identify trends. Users can set the length and type of the moving average.
Upper and Lower Bands: These bands are set at a specified deviation percentage above and below the chosen moving average. They help in identifying overbought and oversold conditions.
No Wick Bull/Bear Candlestick Identification:
Bullish Condition: A bullish candlestick is identified when the closing price is higher than the opening price, the low equals the open, and the close is above the moving average.
Bearish Condition: A bearish candlestick is identified when the closing price is lower than the opening price, the high equals the open, and the close is below the moving average.
No Wick: These conditions also imply that the candlesticks have no wicks, suggesting strong buying or selling pressure.
Arrows for Trading Signals:
No lower wick bull bar
No upper wick bear bar
When a bullish condition is met, a green upward-pointing triangle is plotted below the candlestick, indicating a potential buy signal.
When a bearish condition is met, a red downward-pointing triangle is plotted above the candlestick, indicating a potential sell signal.
EMA 20: An additional Exponential Moving Average with a length of 20 periods is plotted for further trend analysis.
Background Color Changes: The script changes the background color to blue if the EMA 20 is above the upper band, and to red if it is below the lower band, providing visual cues about the market trend.
How It Works:
Traders can input their preferences for the moving average type and length, source of the MA (like closing prices), and the deviation percentage for the bands.
The script then calculates the moving average, upper and lower bands, and checks for bullish or bearish candlestick conditions without wicks.
When such conditions are met, it plots arrows to suggest buy or sell signals.
The EMA 20 and background color changes offer additional trend information.
Usage:
This indicator is particularly useful in markets with clear trends. The no wick bull/bear candlesticks indicate strong buying or selling pressure, and the arrows provide clear visual signals for traders to consider entering or exiting positions. As with all trading indicators, it's recommended to use this tool in conjunction with other forms of analysis to confirm trading signals.
TrendLine CrossThis indicator "TrendLine Cross", is designed to plot trend lines so you can spot potential trend reversal points on the charts. The main function is to draw several lines on the chart and identify the crossings between these lines, which can be significant indicators for trading. The lines are based on different periods which can be changed in the settings tabs.
Let's see the characteristics of the trend lines:
_Low Line Color(Green Line): This line connects the lowest point of low prices in the "low_time" period with the lowest point of low prices in the "high_time" period. Indicates a possible short-term support level on the chart.
_Liquidity Up Line Color (Golden Line): This line connects the lowest point of low prices in the "low_time" period with the highest point of low prices in the same period. It represents a liquidity zone and an important resistance in the chart.
_Lower Line Color (Blue Line): This horizontal line connects the lowest point of low prices in the "LowerLine_period" with the lowest point of low prices in the "high_time" period. Indicates a possible long-term support level.
_Upper Line Colorr: This line represents a connection between the highest points of the "high_time" period and the lowest point of the "LowerLine_period". Indicates a possible long-term resistance level.
_Up Line Color (Red Line): This line connects the highest point of high prices in the "high_time" period with the highest point of high prices in the "LowerLine_period". It represents a possible long-term resistance level.
_Liquidity Down Line Color(Golden Line): This line connects the highest point of high prices in the "high_time" period with the highest point of low prices in the "low_time" period. It represents a liquidity point and an important support zone.
The indicator becomes particularly interesting when the lines make crossings. These crossovers could suggest a potential trend change in the market. For example:
Change from Bearish to Bullish: If the "long-term" line (black) crosses the "short- or long-term" line (green or blue) from top to bottom, it could indicate a shift from a bearish to a bullish market , suggesting the opportunity for long positions.
_Changing from Bullish to Bearish: If the "long-term" line (blue) crosses the "short-term" line (red or black) from bottom to top, it could indicate a shift from a bullish to a bearish market, suggesting the opportunity for short positions.
Generally speaking, crossings between these lines can be key points of interest for traders, as they can signal significant changes in price direction.
Realtime Divergence for Any Indicator - By John BartleThe main purpose of this script is to show historical and real-time divergences for any oscillating indicator. The secondary purpose is to give the user a lot of precise control over identifying divergences and determining what they are. This is an improved version of my other script which is similarly called "Realtime Divergence for Any Indicator"
There are four types of divergences that are offered:
Bull divergence
Hidden bull divergence
Bear divergence
Hidden Bear divergence
There are three types of potential(real-time) divergences which include:
1) Without right side bars for rightside pivots. Plus without waiting for the rightside pivot bar to complete
2) Without right side bars for rightside pivots. Plus with waiting for the rightside pivot bar to complete
3) With right side bars for rightside pivots. Plus without waiting for the rightside pivot right-most bar to complete
A definite divergence occurs when all specified bars are accounted for and fully formed.
Potential divergences use dashed lines and definite(historical) divergences use solid lines.
In addition to several other categories of settings to filter out unwanted divergences or manipulate the search process, this script also offers Alerts. Remember that alerts must not only be set within this scripts settings but also your "Alerts" panel on your right. It's strange but BOTH must be set for alerts to work...
Other interesting Things To Know:
1)I actually don't trade and so I have no need of a paid account. Unpaid accounts don't have the playback feature so I haven't really tested this script out very well. Sorry. Just let me know if something seems off and IF I have time I'll try to fix it.
2)Keep in mind that Pinescript limits the number of lines that can be shown at one time. This means that if your settings allow for a large number of divergence lines they will be removed from the leftward side of your chart but appear in the rightward side.
3) The time and the values for the price or oscillator are not the same things as each other nor are they physical things with physical space. This means that slopes of lines using the time as X and value as Y can not have definite angles. Consequently, under the setting "DIVERGENCES: SLOPE ANGLE EXCLUSION" YOU have to decide what slope equals what angle by using the setting called "Normalization Factor".
4) Remember that some individual settings apply to both the oscillator and price chart. This means that even if the setting's conditions are fulfilled in one they may not be fulfilled in the other.
5) Under the category "DIVERGENCES: INTERSECTION ALLOWANCE", if you set the "Measurement Type" to Relative Percentage then FYI any single given length will equate to an increasingly smaller percentage the further away from zero it is. Because of this, I think "Reletive Percentage" is probably only useful for price charts or oscillators with big values. Maybe >200 is OK ?
Errors:
1) If you get the error mentioning that the script must complete execution within X amount of time, this is because this is a big script and sometimes takes longer than your service plan's allotted time limit. You can just disable some of the settings to reduce the scripts amount of work and time. The biggest time savers will be to disable some lines and labels
2) If you get an error saying the script accessed a negative index(e.g. ) then try temporarily increasing the "Add More Array Elements" setting to 100-200. Sometimes it fixes the problem.
3) You may sometimes temporarily get an error that reads: "Pine cannot determine the referencing length of a series. Try using max_bars_back in the study or strategy function".
If this happens there are several things that you can do:
3A) Create a copy of my script. Then edit the section of code that looks like this ")//, max_bars_back = INSERT_YOUR_QUANTITY_HERE)" and transform it to look like this new code ", max_bars_back = INSERT_YOUR_QUANTITY_HERE)" then repeatedly try replacing "INSERT_YOUR_QUANTITY_HERE" with an increasingly larger number greater than 244 but less than 5000.
This method will increase your system resources and could cause other problems. Try changing the code back after a few hours and see if all is well again. It is a Pinescript limitation issue and happens when certain functions or variables don't get used at least once within the first 244 bars.
3B) Adjust your settings to hopefully find a divergence within the first 244 bars. If one is found then the problematic variables or functions should get used and the Pinescript 244 bar limitation should be temporarily resolved.
3C) Wait for X number of new bars to occur. If a divergence is eventually found within the first 244 bars that should solve the issue.
Tips:
1) If the amount that a setting changes value is undesirable for each time you click it then you can change that amount in the code. To do that, you'll need your own copy of my script. To make your own copy just click on "create a working copy" in the brown colored strip area above the code. Then within approximately the first 108 lines find the title of the setting you want to change. Then look to it's right to find the parameter called "step =". Change what the step equals to whatever you want. FYI, you can hover your mouse over the blue colored code and a popup will tell you what parameters(i.e. settings) that function(e.g. "input.int()") has available.
