Relative Strength Index Remastered [CHE]Relative Strength Index Remastered — Enhanced RSI with robust divergence detection using price-based pivots and line-of-sight validation to reduce false signals compared to the standard RSI indicator.
Summary
RSI Remastered builds on the classic Relative Strength Index by adding a more reliable divergence detection system that relies on price pivots rather than RSI pivots alone, incorporating a line-of-sight check to ensure the RSI path between points remains clear. This approach filters out many false divergences that occur in the original RSI indicator due to its volatile pivot detection on the RSI line itself. Users benefit from clearer reversal and continuation signals, especially in noisy markets, with optional hidden divergence support for trend confirmation. The core RSI calculation and smoothing options remain familiar, but the divergence logic provides materially fewer alerts while maintaining sensitivity.
Motivation: Why this design?
The standard RSI indicator often generates misleading divergence signals because it detects pivots directly on the RSI values, which can fluctuate erratically in volatile conditions, leading to frequent false positives that confuse traders during ranging or choppy price action. RSI Remastered addresses this by shifting pivot detection to the underlying price highs and lows, which are more stable, and adding a validation step that confirms the RSI line does not cross the direct path between pivot points. This design targets the real problem of over-signaling in the original, promoting more actionable insights without altering the RSI's core momentum measurement.
What’s different vs. standard approaches?
- Reference baseline: The classical TradingView RSI indicator, which uses simple RSI-based pivot detection for divergences.
- Architecture differences:
- Pivot identification on price extremes (highs and lows) instead of RSI values, extracting RSI levels at those points for comparison.
- Addition of a line-of-sight validation that checks the RSI path bar by bar between pivots to prevent signals where the line is interrupted.
- Inclusion of hidden divergence types alongside regular ones, using the same robust framework.
- Configurable drawing of connecting lines between validated pivot RSI points for visual clarity.
- Practical effect: Charts show fewer but higher-quality divergence markers and lines, reducing clutter from the original's frequent RSI pivot triggers; this matters for avoiding whipsaws in intraday trading, where the standard version might flag dozens of invalid setups per session.

How it works (technical)
The indicator first computes the core RSI value based on recent price changes, separating upward and downward movements over the specified length and smoothing them to derive a momentum reading scaled between zero and one hundred. This value is then plotted in a separate pane with fixed upper and lower reference lines at seventy and thirty, along with optional gradient fills to highlight overbought and oversold zones.
For smoothing, a moving average type is applied to the RSI if enabled, with an option to add bands around it based on the variability of recent RSI values scaled by a multiplier. Divergence detection activates on confirmed price pivots: lows for bullish checks and highs for bearish. At each new pivot, the system retrieves the bar index and values (price and RSI) for the current and prior pivot, ensuring they fall within a configurable bar range to avoid unrelated points.
Comparisons then assess whether the price has made a lower low (or higher high) while the RSI at those points moves in the opposite direction—higher for bullish regular, lower for bearish regular. For hidden types, the directions reverse to capture trend strength. The line-of-sight check calculates the straight path between the two RSI points and verifies that the actual RSI values in between stay entirely above (for bullish) or below (for bearish) that path, breaking the signal if any bar violates it. Valid signals trigger shapes at the RSI level of the new pivot and optional lines connecting the points. Initialization uses built-in functions to track prior occurrences, with states persisting across bars for accurate historical comparisons. No higher timeframe data is used, so confirmation occurs after the right pivot bars close, minimizing live-bar repaints.
Parameter Guide
Length — Controls the period for measuring price momentum changes — Default: 14 — Trade-offs/Tips: Shorter values increase responsiveness but add noise and more false signals; longer smooths trends but delays entries in fast markets.
Source — Selects the price input for RSI calculation — Default: Close — Trade-offs/Tips: Use high or low for volatility focus, but close works best for most assets; mismatches can skew overbought/oversold reads.
Calculate Divergence — Enables the enhanced divergence logic — Default: True — Trade-offs/Tips: Disable for pure RSI view to save computation; essential for signal reliability over the standard method.
Type (Smoothing) — Chooses the moving average applied to RSI — Default: SMA — Trade-offs/Tips: None for raw RSI; EMA for quicker adaptation, but SMA reduces whipsaws; Bollinger Bands option adds volatility context at cost of added lines.
Length (Smoothing) — Period for the smoothing average — Default: 14 — Trade-offs/Tips: Match RSI length for consistency; shorter boosts signal speed but amplifies noise in the smoothed line.
BB StdDev — Multiplier for band width around smoothed RSI — Default: 2.0 — Trade-offs/Tips: Lower narrows bands for tighter signals, risking more touches; higher widens for fewer but stronger breakouts.
Pivot Left — Bars to the left for confirming price pivots — Default: 5 — Trade-offs/Tips: Increase for stricter pivots in noisy data, reducing signals; too high delays confirmation excessively.
Pivot Right — Bars to the right for confirming price pivots — Default: 5 — Trade-offs/Tips: Balances with left for symmetry; longer right ensures maturity but shifts signals backward.
Max Bars Between Pivots — Upper limit on distance for valid pivot pairs — Default: 60 — Trade-offs/Tips: Tighten for short-term trades to focus recent action; widen for swing setups but risks unrelated comparisons.
Min Bars Between Pivots — Lower limit to avoid clustered pivots — Default: 5 — Trade-offs/Tips: Raise to filter micro-moves; too low invites overlapping signals like the original RSI.
Detect Hidden — Includes trend-continuation hidden types — Default: True — Trade-offs/Tips: Enable for full trend analysis; disable simplifies to reversals only, akin to basic RSI.
Draw Lines — Shows connecting lines between valid pivots — Default: True — Trade-offs/Tips: Turn off for cleaner charts; helps visually confirm line-of-sight in backtests.
Reading & Interpretation
The main RSI line oscillates between zero and one hundred, crossing above fifty suggesting building momentum and below indicating weakness; touches near seventy or thirty flag potential extremes. The optional smoothed line and bands provide a filtered view—price above the upper band on the RSI pane hints at overextension. Divergence shapes appear as upward labels for bullish (lime for regular, teal for hidden) and downward for bearish (red regular, orange hidden) at the pivot's RSI level, signaling a mismatch only after validation. Connecting lines, if drawn, slope between points without RSI interference, their color matching the shape type; a dashed style denotes hidden. Fewer shapes overall compared to the standard RSI mean higher conviction, but always confirm with price structure.
Practical Workflows & Combinations
- Trend following: Enter longs on regular bullish shapes near support with higher highs in price; filter hidden bullish for pullback buys in uptrends, pairing with a rising smoothed RSI above fifty.
- Exits/Stops: Use bearish regular as reversal warnings to tighten stops; hidden bearish in downtrends confirms continuation—exit if lines show RSI crossing the path.
- Multi-asset/Multi-TF: Defaults suit forex and stocks on one-hour charts; for crypto volatility, widen pivot ranges to ten; scale min/max bars proportionally on daily for swings, avoiding the original's intraday spam.
Behavior, Constraints & Performance
Signals confirm only after the right pivot bars close, so live bars may show tentative pivots that vanish on close, unlike the standard RSI's immediate RSI-pivot triggers—plan for this delay in automation. No higher timeframe calls, so no security-related repaints. Resources include up to two hundred lines and labels for dense charts, with a loop in validation scanning up to three hundred bars between pivots, which is efficient but could slow on very long histories. Known limits: Slight lag at pivot confirmation in trending markets; volatile RSI might rarely miss fine path violations; not ideal for gap-heavy assets where pivots skip.
Sensible Defaults & Quick Tuning
Start with defaults for balanced momentum and divergence on most timeframes. For too many signals (like the original), raise pivot left/right to eight and min bars to ten to filter noise. If sluggish in trends, shorten RSI length to nine and enable EMA smoothing for faster adaptation. In high-volatility assets, widen max bars to one hundred but disable hidden to focus essentials. For clean reversal hunts, set smoothing to none and lines on.
What this indicator is—and isn’t
RSI Remastered serves as a refined momentum and divergence visualization tool, enhancing the standard RSI for better signal quality in technical analysis setups. It is not a standalone trading system, nor does it predict price moves—pair it with volume, structure breaks, and risk rules for decisions. Use alongside position sizing and broader context, not in isolation.

Enhanced Holt-Winters RSI [BOSWaves]Enhanced Holt-Winters RSI – Next-Level Momentum Smoothing & Signal Precision
Overview
The Enhanced Holt-Winters RSI transforms the classic Relative Strength Index into a robust, lag-minimized momentum oscillator through Holt-Winters triple exponential smoothing. By modeling the level, trend, and cyclical behavior of the RSI series, this indicator delivers smoother, more responsive signals that highlight overbought/oversold conditions, momentum shifts, and high-conviction trading setups without cluttering the chart with noise.
Unlike traditional RSI, which reacts to historical data and produces frequent whipsaws, the Enhanced Holt-Winters RSI filters transient price fluctuations, enabling traders to detect emerging momentum and potential reversal zones earlier.
Theoretical Foundation
The traditional RSI measures relative strength by comparing average gains and losses, but suffers from:
Lag in trend recognition : Signals often arrive after momentum has shifted.
Noise sensitivity : High-frequency price movements generate unreliable crossovers.
Limited insight into structural market shifts : Standard RSI cannot contextualize cyclical or momentum patterns.
The Enhanced Holt-Winters RSI addresses these limitations by applying triple exponential smoothing directly to the RSI series. This decomposes the series into:
Level (Lₜ) : Represents the smoothed central tendency of RSI.
Trend (Tₜ) : Captures rate-of-change in smoothed momentum.
Seasonal Component (Sₜ) : Models short-term cyclical deviations in momentum.
By incorporating these elements, the oscillator produces smoothed RSI values that react faster to emerging trends while suppressing erratic noise. Its internal forecast is mathematical, influencing the smoothed RSI output and signals, rather than being directly plotted.
How It Works
The Enhanced Holt-Winters RSI builds its signal framework through several layers:
1. Base RSI Calculation
Computes standard RSI over the selected period as the primary momentum input.
2. Triple Exponential Smoothing (Holt-Winters)
The RSI is smoothed recursively to extract underlying momentum structure:
Level, trend, and seasonal components are combined to produce a smoothed RSI.
This internal smoothing reduces lag and enhances signal reliability.
3. Momentum Analysis
Short-term momentum shifts are tracked via a moving average of the smoothed RSI, highlighting acceleration or deceleration in directional strength.
4. Volume Confirmation (Optional)
Buy/sell signals can be filtered through a configurable volume threshold, ensuring only high-conviction moves trigger alerts.
5. Visual Output
Colored Candles : Represent overbought (red), oversold (green), or neutral (yellow) conditions.
Oscillator Panel : Plots the smoothed RSI with dynamic color coding for immediate trend context.
Signals : Triangular markers indicate bullish or bearish setups, with stronger signals flagged in extreme zones.
Interpretation
The Enhanced Holt-Winters RSI provides a multi-dimensional perspective on price action:
Trend Strength : Smoothed RSI slope and color coding reflect the direction and momentum intensity.
Momentum Shifts : Rapid changes in the smoothed RSI indicate emerging strength or weakness.
Overbought/Oversold Zones : Highlight areas where price is stretched relative to recent momentum.
High-Conviction Signals : Combined with volume filtering, markers indicate optimal entries/exits.
Cycle Awareness : Smoothing reveals structural patterns, helping traders avoid reacting to noise.
By combining these elements, traders gain early insight into market structure and momentum without relying on raw, lag-prone RSI data.
Strategy Integration
The Enhanced Holt-Winters RSI can be applied across trading styles:
Trend Following
Enter when RSI is aligned with price momentum and color-coded signals confirm trend direction.
Strong slope in the smoothed RSI signals trend continuation.
Reversal Trading
Look for RSI extremes with momentum shifts and strong signal markers.
Compression in oscillator values often precedes reversal setups.
Breakout Detection
Oscillator flattening in neutral zones followed by directional expansion indicates potential breakout conditions.
Multi-Timeframe Confluence
Higher timeframes provide directional bias; lower timeframes refine entry timing using smoothed RSI dynamics.
Technical Implementation Details
Input Source : Close, open, high, low, or price.
Smoothing : Holt-Winters triple exponential smoothing applied to RSI.
Parameters :
Level (α) : Controls smoothing of RSI.
Trend (β) : Adjusts responsiveness to momentum changes.
Seasonal Length : Defines cycles for short-term adjustments.
Delta Smoothing : Reduces choppiness in smoothed RSI difference.
Outputs :
Smoothed RSI
Colored candles and oscillator panel
Buy/Sell signal markers (with optional strength filtering)
Volume Filtering : Optional threshold to confirm signals.
Optimal Application Parameters
Asset-Specific Guidance:
Forex : Use moderate smoothing (α, β) to capture medium-term momentum swings while filtering minor price noise. Works best when combined with volume or volatility filters.
Equities : Balance responsiveness and smoothness to identify sustained sector momentum or rotational shifts; ideal for capturing clean directional transitions.
Cryptocurrency : Increase smoothing parameters slightly to stabilize RSI during extreme volatility; optional volume confirmation can help filter false signals.
Futures/Indices : Lower smoothing sensitivity emphasizes macro momentum and structural trend durability over short-term fluctuations.
Timeframe Optimization:
Scalping (1-5m) : Use higher sensitivity (lower smoothing factors) to react quickly to micro-momentum reversals.
Intraday (15m-1h) : Balance smoothing and responsiveness for detecting short-term acceleration and exhaustion zones.
Swing (4h-Daily) : Apply moderate smoothing to reveal underlying directional persistence and cyclical reversals.
Position (Daily-Weekly) : Use stronger smoothing to isolate dominant momentum trends and filter temporary pullbacks.
Integration Guidelines
Combine with trend filters (EMAs, SuperSmoother MA, ATR-based tools) for confirmation.
Use volume and signal strength markers to filter low-conviction trades.
Slope, color, and signal alignment can guide entry, stop placement, and scaling.
Disclaimer
The Enhanced Holt-Winters RSI is a technical analysis tool, not a guaranteed profit system. Effectiveness depends on proper settings, market structure, and disciplined risk management. Always backtest before live trading.
Squeeze Hour Frequency [CHE]Squeeze Hour Frequency (ATR-PR) — Standalone — Tracks daily squeeze occurrences by hour to reveal time-based volatility patterns
Summary
This indicator identifies periods of unusually low volatility, defined as squeezes, and tallies their frequency across each hour of the day over historical trading sessions. By aggregating counts into a sortable table, it helps users spot hours prone to these conditions, enabling better scheduling of trading activity to avoid or target specific intraday regimes. Signals gain robustness through percentile-based detection that adapts to recent volatility history, differing from fixed-threshold methods by focusing on relative lowness rather than absolute levels, which reduces false positives in varying market environments.
Motivation: Why this design?
Traders often face uneven intraday volatility, with certain hours showing clustered low-activity phases that precede or follow breakouts, leading to mistimed entries or overlooked calm periods. The core idea of hourly squeeze frequency addresses this by binning low-volatility events into 24 hourly slots and counting distinct daily occurrences, providing a historical profile of when squeezes cluster. This reveals time-of-day biases without relying on real-time alerts, allowing proactive adjustments to session focus.
What’s different vs. standard approaches?
- Reference baseline: Classical volatility tools like simple moving average crossovers or fixed ATR thresholds, which flag squeezes uniformly across the day.
- Architecture differences:
- Uses persistent arrays to track one squeeze per hour per day, preventing overcounting within sessions.
- Employs custom sorting on ratio arrays for dynamic table display, prioritizing top or bottom performers.
- Handles timezones explicitly to ensure consistent binning across global assets.
- Practical effect: Charts show a persistent table ranking hours by squeeze share, making intraday patterns immediately visible—such as a top hour capturing over 20 percent of total events—unlike static overlays that ignore temporal distribution, which matters for avoiding low-liquidity traps in crypto or forex.
How it works (technical)
The indicator first computes a rolling volatility measure over a specified lookback period. It then derives a relative ranking of the current value against recent history within a window of bars. A squeeze is flagged when this ranking falls below a user-defined cutoff, indicating the value is among the lowest in the recent sample.
On each bar, the local hour is extracted using the selected timezone. If a squeeze occurs and the bar has price data, the count for that hour increments only if no prior mark exists for the current day, using a persistent array to store the last marked day per hour. This ensures one tally per unique trading day per slot.
At the final bar, arrays compile counts and ratios for all 24 hours, where the ratio represents each hour's share of total squeezes observed. These are sorted ascending or descending based on display mode, and the top or bottom subset populates the table. Background shading highlights live squeezes in red for visual confirmation. Initialization uses zero-filled arrays for counts and negative seeds for day tracking, with state persisting across bars via variable declarations.
No higher timeframe data is pulled, so there is no repaint risk from external fetches; all logic runs on confirmed bars.
Parameter Guide
ATR Length — Controls the lookback for the volatility measure, influencing sensitivity to short-term fluctuations; shorter values increase responsiveness but add noise, longer ones smooth for stability — Default: 14 — Trade-offs/Tips: Use 10-20 for intraday charts to balance quick detection with fewer false squeezes; test on historical data to avoid over-smoothing in trending markets.
Percentile Window (bars) — Sets the history depth for ranking the current volatility value, affecting how "low" is defined relative to past; wider windows emphasize long-term norms — Default: 252 — Trade-offs/Tips: 100-300 bars suit daily cycles; narrower for fast assets like crypto to catch recent regimes, but risks instability in sparse data.
Squeeze threshold (PR < x) — Defines the cutoff for flagging low relative volatility, where values below this mark a squeeze; lower thresholds tighten detection for rarer events — Default: 10.0 — Trade-offs/Tips: 5-15 percent for conservative signals reducing false positives; raise to 20 for more frequent highlights in high-vol environments, monitoring for increased noise.
Timezone — Specifies the reference for hourly binning, ensuring alignment with market sessions — Default: Exchange — Trade-offs/Tips: Set to "America/New_York" for US assets; mismatches can skew counts, so verify against chart timezone.
Show Table — Toggles the results display, essential for reviewing frequencies — Default: true — Trade-offs/Tips: Disable on mobile for performance; pair with position tweaks for clean overlays.
Pos — Places the table on the chart pane — Default: Top Right — Trade-offs/Tips: Bottom Left avoids candle occlusion on volatile charts.
Font — Adjusts text readability in the table — Default: normal — Trade-offs/Tips: Tiny for dense views, large for emphasis on key hours.
Dark — Applies high-contrast colors for visibility — Default: true — Trade-offs/Tips: Toggle false in light themes to prevent washout.
Display — Filters table rows to focus on extremes or full list — Default: All — Trade-offs/Tips: Top 3 for quick scans of risky hours; Bottom 3 highlights safe low-squeeze periods.
Reading & Interpretation
Red background shading appears on bars meeting the squeeze condition, signaling current low relative volatility. The table lists hours as "H0" to "H23", with columns for daily squeeze counts, percentage share of total squeezes (summing to 100 percent across hours), and an arrow marker on the top hour. A summary row above details the peak count, its share, and the leading hour. A label at the last bar recaps total days observed, data-valid days, and top hour stats. Rising shares indicate clustering, suggesting regime persistence in that slot.
Practical Workflows & Combinations
- Trend following: Scan for hours with low squeeze shares to enter during stable regimes; confirm with higher highs or lower lows on the 15-minute chart, avoiding top-share hours post-news like tariff announcements.
- Exits/Stops: Tighten stops in high-share hours to guard against sudden vol spikes; use the table to shift to conservative sizing outside peak squeeze times.
- Multi-asset/Multi-TF: Defaults work across crypto pairs on 5-60 minute timeframes; for stocks, widen percentile window to 500 bars. Combine with volume oscillators—enter only if squeeze count is below average for the asset.
Behavior, Constraints & Performance
Logic executes on closed bars, with live bars updating counts provisionally but finalizing on confirmation; table refreshes only at the last bar, avoiding intrabar flicker. No security calls or higher timeframes, so no repaint from external data. Resources include a 5000-bar history limit, loops up to 24 iterations for sorting and totals, and arrays sized to 24 elements; labels and table are capped at 500 each for efficiency. Known limits: Skips hours without bars (e.g., weekends), assumes uniform data availability, and may undercount in sparse sessions; timezone shifts can alter profiles without warning.
Sensible Defaults & Quick Tuning
Start with ATR Length at 14, Percentile Window at 252, and threshold at 10.0 for broad crypto use. If too many squeezes flag (noisy table), raise threshold to 15.0 and narrow window to 100 for stricter relative lowness. For sluggish detection in calm markets, drop ATR Length to 10 and threshold to 5.0 to capture subtler dips. In high-vol assets, widen window to 500 and threshold to 20.0 for stability.
What this indicator is—and isn’t
This is a historical frequency tracker and visualization layer for intraday volatility patterns, best as a filter in multi-tool setups. It is not a standalone signal generator, predictive model, or risk manager—pair it with price action, news filters, and position sizing rules.

Volume BubblesVolume Bubbles Indicator
Introduction
The Volume Bubbles indicator is a powerful tool designed to visually highlight significant volume spikes on your TradingView charts. It helps traders identify potential areas of whale accumulation (large buying activity) or dumping (large selling activity) by displaying colored bubbles on candles where volume exceeds a customizable threshold. Green bubbles indicate bullish (buy) volume on up candles, suggesting possible accumulation, while red bubbles signal bearish (sell) volume on down candles, indicating potential dumping. The bubble size scales with the volume magnitude, making it easy to spot major market moves at a glance.
This indicator is particularly useful for crypto, forex, and stock traders looking to gauge market sentiment and large player involvement without cluttering the chart. It's built in Pine Script v5 and overlays directly on your price action.
How It Works
The indicator calculates a moving average of volume (default: 20-period SMA) and detects spikes when current volume exceeds this average by a multiplier (default: 2x).
Buy Bubbles (Green): Appear on bullish candles (close >= open) at the low wick, representing potential whale buying or accumulation zones.
Sell Bubbles (Red): Appear on bearish candles (close < open) at the high wick, indicating potential whale selling or dumping zones.
Bubble Size: Dynamically sized based on volume thresholds – huge for >1M, large for 500K-1M, normal for <500K.
Transparency: Increases with volume ratio for better visibility on extreme spikes.
Tooltip:
Hover over a bubble to see detailed info like total volume, average volume, and ratio.
By focusing on these high-volume events, traders can spot key support/resistance levels where whales might be active.
How to Use for Whale Accumulation and Dumping
Whales (large holders) often move markets with high-volume trades. This indicator helps spot them:
Accumulation (Buying): Look for clusters of large green bubbles at price lows or during consolidations. This suggests whales are buying dips, potentially signaling a reversal or uptrend start. Combine with support levels for confirmation.
Dumping (Selling): Watch for big red bubbles at price highs or after rallies. This indicates whales unloading positions, which could lead to downtrends or corrections. Pair with resistance levels.
Tips:
Use on higher timeframes (e.g., 1H+) for reliable signals.
Confirm with other indicators like RSI or MACD to avoid false positives.
In trending markets, buy bubbles in uptrends confirm strength; sell bubbles in downtrends signal continuation.

Keltner Channel Enhanced [DCAUT]█ Keltner Channel Enhanced
📊 ORIGINALITY & INNOVATION
The Keltner Channel Enhanced represents an important advancement over standard Keltner Channel implementations by introducing dual flexibility in moving average selection for both the middle band and ATR calculation. While traditional Keltner Channels typically use EMA for the middle band and RMA (Wilder's smoothing) for ATR, this enhanced version provides access to 25+ moving average algorithms for both components, enabling traders to fine-tune the indicator's behavior to match specific market characteristics and trading approaches.
Key Advancements:
Dual MA Algorithm Flexibility: Independent selection of moving average types for middle band (25+ options) and ATR smoothing (25+ options), allowing optimization of both trend identification and volatility measurement separately
Enhanced Trend Sensitivity: Ability to use faster algorithms (HMA, T3) for middle band while maintaining stable volatility measurement with traditional ATR smoothing, or vice versa for different trading strategies
Adaptive Volatility Measurement: Choice of ATR smoothing algorithm affects channel responsiveness to volatility changes, from highly reactive (SMA, EMA) to smoothly adaptive (RMA, TEMA)
Comprehensive Alert System: Five distinct alert conditions covering breakouts, trend changes, and volatility expansion, enabling automated monitoring without constant chart observation
Multi-Timeframe Compatibility: Works effectively across all timeframes from intraday scalping to long-term position trading, with independent optimization of trend and volatility components
This implementation addresses key limitations of standard Keltner Channels: fixed EMA/RMA combination may not suit all market conditions or trading styles. By decoupling the trend component from volatility measurement and allowing independent algorithm selection, traders can create highly customized configurations for specific instruments and market phases.
📐 MATHEMATICAL FOUNDATION
Keltner Channel Enhanced uses a three-component calculation system that combines a flexible moving average middle band with ATR-based (Average True Range) upper and lower channels, creating volatility-adjusted trend-following bands.
Core Calculation Process:
1. Middle Band (Basis) Calculation:
The basis line is calculated using the selected moving average algorithm applied to the price source over the specified period:
basis = ma(source, length, maType)
Supported algorithms include EMA (standard choice, trend-biased), SMA (balanced and symmetric), HMA (reduced lag), WMA, VWMA, TEMA, T3, KAMA, and 17+ others.
2. Average True Range (ATR) Calculation:
ATR measures market volatility by calculating the average of true ranges over the specified period:
trueRange = max(high - low, abs(high - close ), abs(low - close ))
atrValue = ma(trueRange, atrLength, atrMaType)
ATR smoothing algorithm significantly affects channel behavior, with options including RMA (standard, very smooth), SMA (moderate smoothness), EMA (fast adaptation), TEMA (smooth yet responsive), and others.
3. Channel Calculation:
Upper and lower channels are positioned at specified multiples of ATR from the basis:
upperChannel = basis + (multiplier × atrValue)
lowerChannel = basis - (multiplier × atrValue)
Standard multiplier is 2.0, providing channels that dynamically adjust width based on market volatility.
Keltner Channel vs. Bollinger Bands - Key Differences:
While both indicators create volatility-based channels, they use fundamentally different volatility measures:
Keltner Channel (ATR-based):
Uses Average True Range to measure actual price movement volatility
Incorporates gaps and limit moves through true range calculation
More stable in trending markets, less prone to extreme compression
Better reflects intraday volatility and trading range
Typically fewer band touches, making touches more significant
More suitable for trend-following strategies
Bollinger Bands (Standard Deviation-based):
Uses statistical standard deviation to measure price dispersion
Based on closing prices only, doesn't account for intraday range
Can compress significantly during consolidation (squeeze patterns)
More touches in ranging markets
Better suited for mean-reversion strategies
Provides statistical probability framework (95% within 2 standard deviations)
Algorithm Combination Effects:
The interaction between middle band MA type and ATR MA type creates different indicator characteristics:
Trend-Focused Configuration (Fast MA + Slow ATR): Middle band uses HMA/EMA/T3, ATR uses RMA/TEMA, quick trend changes with stable channel width, suitable for trend-following
Volatility-Focused Configuration (Slow MA + Fast ATR): Middle band uses SMA/WMA, ATR uses EMA/SMA, stable trend with dynamic channel width, suitable for volatility trading
Balanced Configuration (Standard EMA/RMA): Classic Keltner Channel behavior, time-tested combination, suitable for general-purpose trend following
Adaptive Configuration (KAMA + KAMA): Self-adjusting indicator responding to efficiency ratio, suitable for markets with varying trend strength and volatility regimes
📊 COMPREHENSIVE SIGNAL ANALYSIS
Keltner Channel Enhanced provides multiple signal categories optimized for trend-following and breakout strategies.
Channel Position Signals:
Upper Channel Interaction:
Price Touching Upper Channel: Strong bullish momentum, price moving more than typical volatility range suggests, potential continuation signal in established uptrends
Price Breaking Above Upper Channel: Exceptional strength, price exceeding normal volatility expectations, consider adding to long positions or tightening trailing stops
Price Riding Upper Channel: Sustained strong uptrend, characteristic of powerful bull moves, stay with trend and avoid premature profit-taking
Price Rejection at Upper Channel: Momentum exhaustion signal, consider profit-taking on longs or waiting for pullback to middle band for reentry
Lower Channel Interaction:
Price Touching Lower Channel: Strong bearish momentum, price moving more than typical volatility range suggests, potential continuation signal in established downtrends
Price Breaking Below Lower Channel: Exceptional weakness, price exceeding normal volatility expectations, consider adding to short positions or protecting against further downside
Price Riding Lower Channel: Sustained strong downtrend, characteristic of powerful bear moves, stay with trend and avoid premature covering
Price Rejection at Lower Channel: Momentum exhaustion signal, consider covering shorts or waiting for bounce to middle band for reentry
Middle Band (Basis) Signals:
Trend Direction Confirmation:
Price Above Basis: Bullish trend bias, middle band acts as dynamic support in uptrends, consider long positions or holding existing longs
Price Below Basis: Bearish trend bias, middle band acts as dynamic resistance in downtrends, consider short positions or avoiding longs
Price Crossing Above Basis: Potential trend change from bearish to bullish, early signal to establish long positions
Price Crossing Below Basis: Potential trend change from bullish to bearish, early signal to establish short positions or exit longs
Pullback Trading Strategy:
Uptrend Pullback: Price pulls back from upper channel to middle band, finds support, and resumes upward, ideal long entry point
Downtrend Bounce: Price bounces from lower channel to middle band, meets resistance, and resumes downward, ideal short entry point
Basis Test: Strong trends often show price respecting the middle band as support/resistance on pullbacks
Failed Test: Price breaking through middle band against trend direction signals potential reversal
Volatility-Based Signals:
Narrow Channels (Low Volatility):
Consolidation Phase: Channels contract during periods of reduced volatility and directionless price action
Breakout Preparation: Narrow channels often precede significant directional moves as volatility cycles
Trading Approach: Reduce position sizes, wait for breakout confirmation, avoid range-bound strategies within channels
Breakout Direction: Monitor for price breaking decisively outside channel range with expanding width
Wide Channels (High Volatility):
Trending Phase: Channels expand during strong directional moves and increased volatility
Momentum Confirmation: Wide channels confirm genuine trend with substantial volatility backing
Trading Approach: Trend-following strategies excel, wider stops necessary, mean-reversion strategies risky
Exhaustion Signs: Extreme channel width (historical highs) may signal approaching consolidation or reversal
Advanced Pattern Recognition:
Channel Walking Pattern:
Upper Channel Walk: Price consistently touches or exceeds upper channel while staying above basis, very strong uptrend signal, hold longs aggressively
Lower Channel Walk: Price consistently touches or exceeds lower channel while staying below basis, very strong downtrend signal, hold shorts aggressively
Basis Support/Resistance: During channel walks, price typically uses middle band as support/resistance on minor pullbacks
Pattern Break: Price crossing basis during channel walk signals potential trend exhaustion
Squeeze and Release Pattern:
Squeeze Phase: Channels narrow significantly, price consolidates near middle band, volatility contracts
Direction Clues: Watch for price positioning relative to basis during squeeze (above = bullish bias, below = bearish bias)
Release Trigger: Price breaking outside narrow channel range with expanding width confirms breakout
Follow-Through: Measure squeeze height and project from breakout point for initial profit targets
Channel Expansion Pattern:
Breakout Confirmation: Rapid channel widening confirms volatility increase and genuine trend establishment
Entry Timing: Enter positions early in expansion phase before trend becomes overextended
Risk Management: Use channel width to size stops appropriately, wider channels require wider stops
Basis Bounce Pattern:
Clean Bounce: Price touches middle band and immediately reverses, confirms trend strength and entry opportunity
Multiple Bounces: Repeated basis bounces indicate strong, sustainable trend
Bounce Failure: Price penetrating basis signals weakening trend and potential reversal
Divergence Analysis:
Price/Channel Divergence: Price makes new high/low while staying within channel (not reaching outer band), suggests momentum weakening
Width/Price Divergence: Price breaks to new extremes but channel width contracts, suggests move lacks conviction
Reversal Signal: Divergences often precede trend reversals or significant consolidation periods
Multi-Timeframe Analysis:
Keltner Channels work particularly well in multi-timeframe trend-following approaches:
Three-Timeframe Alignment:
Higher Timeframe (Weekly/Daily): Identify major trend direction, note price position relative to basis and channels
Intermediate Timeframe (Daily/4H): Identify pullback opportunities within higher timeframe trend
Lower Timeframe (4H/1H): Time precise entries when price touches middle band or lower channel (in uptrends) with rejection
Optimal Entry Conditions:
Best Long Entries: Higher timeframe in uptrend (price above basis), intermediate timeframe pulls back to basis, lower timeframe shows rejection at middle band or lower channel
Best Short Entries: Higher timeframe in downtrend (price below basis), intermediate timeframe bounces to basis, lower timeframe shows rejection at middle band or upper channel
Risk Management: Use higher timeframe channel width to set position sizing, stops below/above higher timeframe channels
🎯 STRATEGIC APPLICATIONS
Keltner Channel Enhanced excels in trend-following and breakout strategies across different market conditions.
Trend Following Strategy:
Setup Requirements:
Identify established trend with price consistently on one side of basis line
Wait for pullback to middle band (basis) or brief penetration through it
Confirm trend resumption with price rejection at basis and move back toward outer channel
Enter in trend direction with stop beyond basis line
Entry Rules:
Uptrend Entry:
Price pulls back from upper channel to middle band, shows support at basis (bullish candlestick, momentum divergence)
Enter long on rejection/bounce from basis with stop 1-2 ATR below basis
Aggressive: Enter on first touch; Conservative: Wait for confirmation candle
Downtrend Entry:
Price bounces from lower channel to middle band, shows resistance at basis (bearish candlestick, momentum divergence)
Enter short on rejection/reversal from basis with stop 1-2 ATR above basis
Aggressive: Enter on first touch; Conservative: Wait for confirmation candle
Trend Management:
Trailing Stop: Use basis line as dynamic trailing stop, exit if price closes beyond basis against position
Profit Taking: Take partial profits at opposite channel, move stops to basis
Position Additions: Add to winners on subsequent basis bounces if trend intact
Breakout Strategy:
Setup Requirements:
Identify consolidation period with contracting channel width
Monitor price action near middle band with reduced volatility
Wait for decisive breakout beyond channel range with expanding width
Enter in breakout direction after confirmation
Breakout Confirmation:
Price breaks clearly outside channel (upper for longs, lower for shorts), channel width begins expanding from contracted state
Volume increases significantly on breakout (if using volume analysis)
Price sustains outside channel for multiple bars without immediate reversal
Entry Approaches:
Aggressive: Enter on initial break with stop at opposite channel or basis, use smaller position size
Conservative: Wait for pullback to broken channel level, enter on rejection and resumption, tighter stop
Volatility-Based Position Sizing:
Adjust position sizing based on channel width (ATR-based volatility):
Wide Channels (High ATR): Reduce position size as stops must be wider, calculate position size using ATR-based risk calculation: Risk / (Stop Distance in ATR × ATR Value)
Narrow Channels (Low ATR): Increase position size as stops can be tighter, be cautious of impending volatility expansion
ATR-Based Risk Management: Use ATR-based risk calculations, position size = 0.01 × Capital / (2 × ATR), use multiples of ATR (1-2 ATR) for adaptive stops
Algorithm Selection Guidelines:
Different market conditions benefit from different algorithm combinations:
Strong Trending Markets: Middle band use EMA or HMA, ATR use RMA, capture trends quickly while maintaining stable channel width
Choppy/Ranging Markets: Middle band use SMA or WMA, ATR use SMA or WMA, avoid false trend signals while identifying genuine reversals
Volatile Markets: Middle band and ATR both use KAMA or FRAMA, self-adjusting to changing market conditions reduces manual optimization
Breakout Trading: Middle band use SMA, ATR use EMA or SMA, stable trend with dynamic channels highlights volatility expansion early
Scalping/Day Trading: Middle band use HMA or T3, ATR use EMA or TEMA, both components respond quickly
Position Trading: Middle band use EMA/TEMA/T3, ATR use RMA or TEMA, filter out noise for long-term trend-following
📋 DETAILED PARAMETER CONFIGURATION
Understanding and optimizing parameters is essential for adapting Keltner Channel Enhanced to specific trading approaches.
Source Parameter:
Close (Most Common): Uses closing price, reflects daily settlement, best for end-of-day analysis and position trading, standard choice
HL2 (Median Price): Smooths out closing bias, better represents full daily range in volatile markets, good for swing trading
HLC3 (Typical Price): Gives more weight to close while including full range, popular for intraday applications, slightly more responsive than HL2
OHLC4 (Average Price): Most comprehensive price representation, smoothest option, good for gap-prone markets or highly volatile instruments
Length Parameter:
Controls the lookback period for middle band (basis) calculation:
Short Periods (10-15): Very responsive to price changes, suitable for day trading and scalping, higher false signal rate
Standard Period (20 - Default): Represents approximately one month of trading, good balance between responsiveness and stability, suitable for swing and position trading
Medium Periods (30-50): Smoother trend identification, fewer false signals, better for position trading and longer holding periods
Long Periods (50+): Very smooth, identifies major trends only, minimal false signals but significant lag, suitable for long-term investment
Optimization by Timeframe: 1-15 minute charts use 10-20 period, 30-60 minute charts use 20-30 period, 4-hour to daily charts use 20-40 period, weekly charts use 20-30 weeks.
ATR Length Parameter:
Controls the lookback period for Average True Range calculation, affecting channel width:
Short ATR Periods (5-10): Very responsive to recent volatility changes, standard is 10 (Keltner's original specification), may be too reactive in whipsaw conditions
Standard ATR Period (10 - Default): Chester Keltner's original specification, good balance between responsiveness and stability, most widely used
Medium ATR Periods (14-20): Smoother channel width, ATR 14 aligns with Wilder's original ATR specification, good for position trading
Long ATR Periods (20+): Very smooth channel width, suitable for long-term trend-following
Length vs. ATR Length Relationship: Equal values (20/20) provide balanced responsiveness, longer ATR (20/14) gives more stable channel width, shorter ATR (20/10) is standard configuration, much shorter ATR (20/5) creates very dynamic channels.
Multiplier Parameter:
Controls channel width by setting ATR multiples:
Lower Values (1.0-1.5): Tighter channels with frequent price touches, more trading signals, higher false signal rate, better for range-bound and mean-reversion strategies
Standard Value (2.0 - Default): Chester Keltner's recommended setting, good balance between signal frequency and reliability, suitable for both trending and ranging strategies
Higher Values (2.5-3.0): Wider channels with less frequent touches, fewer but potentially higher-quality signals, better for strong trending markets
Market-Specific Optimization: High volatility markets (crypto, small-caps) use 2.5-3.0 multiplier, medium volatility markets (major forex, large-caps) use 2.0 multiplier, low volatility markets (bonds, utilities) use 1.5-2.0 multiplier.
MA Type Parameter (Middle Band):
Critical selection that determines trend identification characteristics:
EMA (Exponential Moving Average - Default): Standard Keltner Channel choice, Chester Keltner's original specification, emphasizes recent prices, faster response to trend changes, suitable for all timeframes
SMA (Simple Moving Average): Equal weighting of all data points, no directional bias, slower than EMA, better for ranging markets and mean-reversion
HMA (Hull Moving Average): Minimal lag with smooth output, excellent for fast trend identification, best for day trading and scalping
TEMA (Triple Exponential Moving Average): Advanced smoothing with reduced lag, responsive to trends while filtering noise, suitable for volatile markets
T3 (Tillson T3): Very smooth with minimal lag, excellent for established trend identification, suitable for position trading
KAMA (Kaufman Adaptive Moving Average): Automatically adjusts speed based on market efficiency, slow in ranging markets, fast in trends, suitable for markets with varying conditions
ATR MA Type Parameter:
Determines how Average True Range is smoothed, affecting channel width stability:
RMA (Wilder's Smoothing - Default): J. Welles Wilder's original ATR smoothing method, very smooth, slow to adapt to volatility changes, provides stable channel width
SMA (Simple Moving Average): Equal weighting, moderate smoothness, faster response to volatility changes than RMA, more dynamic channel width
EMA (Exponential Moving Average): Emphasizes recent volatility, quick adaptation to new volatility regimes, very responsive channel width changes
TEMA (Triple Exponential Moving Average): Smooth yet responsive, good balance for varying volatility, suitable for most trading styles
Parameter Combination Strategies:
Conservative Trend-Following: Length 30/ATR Length 20/Multiplier 2.5, MA Type EMA or TEMA/ATR MA Type RMA, smooth trend with stable wide channels, suitable for position trading
Standard Balanced Approach: Length 20/ATR Length 10/Multiplier 2.0, MA Type EMA/ATR MA Type RMA, classic Keltner Channel configuration, suitable for general purpose swing trading
Aggressive Day Trading: Length 10-15/ATR Length 5-7/Multiplier 1.5-2.0, MA Type HMA or EMA/ATR MA Type EMA or SMA, fast trend with dynamic channels, suitable for scalping and day trading
Breakout Specialist: Length 20-30/ATR Length 5-10/Multiplier 2.0, MA Type SMA or WMA/ATR MA Type EMA or SMA, stable trend with responsive channel width
Adaptive All-Conditions: Length 20/ATR Length 10/Multiplier 2.0, MA Type KAMA or FRAMA/ATR MA Type KAMA or TEMA, self-adjusting to market conditions
Offset Parameter:
Controls horizontal positioning of channels on chart. Positive values shift channels to the right (future) for visual projection, negative values shift left (past) for historical analysis, zero (default) aligns with current price bars for real-time signal analysis. Offset affects only visual display, not alert conditions or actual calculations.
📈 PERFORMANCE ANALYSIS & COMPETITIVE ADVANTAGES

Complementary Indicators:
RSI or Stochastic: Confirm momentum at channel extremes
MACD: Confirm trend direction and momentum shifts
Volume: Validate breakouts and trend strength
ADX: Measure trend strength, avoid Keltner signals in weak trends
Support/Resistance: Combine with traditional levels for high-probability setups
Bollinger Bands: Use together for enhanced breakout and volatility analysis
USAGE NOTES
This indicator is designed for technical analysis and educational purposes. Keltner Channel Enhanced has limitations and should not be used as the sole basis for trading decisions. While the flexible moving average selection for both trend and volatility components provides valuable adaptability across different market conditions, algorithm performance varies with market conditions, and past characteristics do not guarantee future results.
Key considerations:
Always use multiple forms of analysis and confirmation before entering trades
Backtest any parameter combination thoroughly before live trading
Be aware that optimization can lead to curve-fitting if not done carefully
Start with standard EMA/RMA settings and adjust only when specific conditions warrant
Understand that no moving average algorithm can eliminate lag entirely
Consider market regime (trending, ranging, volatile) when selecting parameters
Use ATR-based position sizing and risk management on every trade
Keltner Channels work best in trending markets, less effective in choppy conditions
Respect the trend direction indicated by price position relative to basis line
The enhanced flexibility of dual algorithm selection provides powerful tools for adaptation but requires responsible use, thorough understanding of how different algorithms behave under various market conditions, and disciplined risk management.

LW Outside Day Strategy[SpeculationLab]This strategy is inspired by the “Outside Day” concept introduced by Larry Williams in Long-Term Secrets to Short-Term Trading, and has been extended with configurable risk management tools and realistic backtesting parameters.
Concept
The “Outside Day” is a classic price action pattern that reflects strong market rejection or continuation pressure.
An Outside Bar occurs when the current bar’s high exceeds the previous high and the low falls below the previous low.
A body-size filter ensures only significant candles are included.
Entry Logic
Buy setup: Price closes below the previous low (bullish rejection).
Sell setup: Price closes above the previous high (bearish rejection).
Only confirmed bars are used (no intrabar signals).
Stop-Loss Modes
Prev Low/High: Uses the previous swing point ± ATR-based buffer.
ATR: Dynamic stop based on Average True Range × multiplier.
Fixed Pips: User-defined fixed distance (for forex testing).
Take-Profit Modes
Prev High/Low (PHL): Exits near the opposite swing.
Risk-Reward (RR): Targets a user-defined multiple of the stop distance (default = 2 : 1).
Following Price Open (FPO): Exits on the next bar’s open if price opens in profit (used to test overnight price continuation).
Risk Management & Backtest Settings
Default risk per trade is set at 10% of account equity (user-adjustable).
Commission = 0.1% and slippage = 2 ticks are applied to simulate realistic conditions.
For reliable statistics, test on data that yields over 100 trades.
Suitable for daily and 4-hour timeframes across stocks, forex, and crypto markets.
Visual Elements
Green and red triangles show entry signals.
Stop-loss (red) and take-profit (green) reference lines are drawn for clarity.
Optional alerts notify when a valid setup forms.
Disclaimer
This script is for educational and research purposes only.
It does not constitute financial advice or guarantee profits.
Always backtest thoroughly and manage your own risk.
Enhancements over Classic Outside Bar Models
Adjustable stop and target logic with ATR and buffer multipliers.
“Following Price Open” exit logic for realistic day-end management.
Optimized to avoid repainting and bar-confirmation issues.
Built with realistic trading costs and position sizing.

Bull Market Support Band (20W SMA + 21W EMA)🟩 Bull Market Support Band (20W SMA + 21W EMA)
OVERVIEW
The Bull Market Support Band is a long-term trend indicator that combines the 20-week SMA and 21-week EMA.
When price is above the band → bullish trend.
When below → bearish trend.
When within → neutral or transition phase.
This v6 version adds full customization, dynamic coloring, event labels, candle coloring, and a configurable on-chart legend table with trend arrows.
HOW IT WORKS
Calculates the 20W SMA and 21W EMA from a user-selectable higher timeframe (weekly by default).
Plots both averages and shades the area between them to form the support band.
The fill and line colors change automatically based on the market phase:
🟩 Green = Bullish (price above)
🟥 Red = Bearish (price below)
⬜ Gray = Neutral (price within).
Labels appear only when the trend state changes.
Alerts trigger when price crosses the band or either moving average.
Optional candle coloring applies the same bull/bear/neutral logic to price bars.
A convenience legend table displays current 20W SMA and 21W EMA values, along with slope arrows (^, v, =).
INCLUDED FEATURES
Configurable calculation timeframe.
Automatic band fill and line coloring.
Optional candle coloring overlay.
Compact or detailed regime-change labels.
ATR-based label offset and spacing control.
Customizable legend table with background color.
Horizontal or vertical legend layout.
Custom arrow characters (ASCII or Unicode).
Built-in alerts for band and MA crosses.
Optimized for higher-timeframe accuracy using request.security().
USAGE TIPS
Keep the default weekly setting for macro trend context.
On lower chart timeframes, use the band as higher-level support/resistance.
Combine with momentum or volume indicators (RSI, MACD, OBV) for confirmation.
Adjust ATR multiplier to move labels further from price candles.
Increase “Min bars between labels” to reduce visual clutter.
Disable auto-coloring if you prefer a static color theme.
Toggle compact legend or switch between horizontal/vertical layouts for best fit.
INTERPRETATION GUIDE
🟩 Bullish: Price above the band → trend continuation likely.
⬜ Neutral: Price within the band → consolidation or potential reversal zone.
🟥 Bearish: Price below the band → downtrend continuation or distribution.
Sustained closes above or below the band typically align with major market cycle shifts.
NOTES
Uses request.security() for higher-timeframe precision — accurate even on smaller charts.
The legend table is screen-anchored and remains fixed as you pan or zoom.
Plots and labels are price-anchored and move with candles.
Lightweight and efficient for all markets and intervals.
CREDITS
Original concept: The Bull Market Support Band (popularized in crypto analysis).
Enhanced Pine Script v6 version: Ricco .
Modernized for clarity, flexibility, and multi-timeframe accuracy.
SUMMARY
A modern, customizable Bull Market Support Band indicator highlighting long-term market regimes with clean visuals, color logic, and convenience features.
Designed for traders seeking macro clarity, minimal clutter, and professional presentation.
BMSB Watchlist Alert - Daily w/ 1% Proximity# Bull Market Support Band - Daily Updates with Proximity Alerts
## Overview
This indicator tracks the Bull Market Support Band (20-week SMA and 21-week EMA) with daily resolution updates and proximity warnings. The weekly moving averages update every day on your chart, giving you more frequent signals than traditional weekly-only scripts.
## What It Does
The script monitors price action relative to the BMSB and generates alerts for:
- Price crossing above or below either the 20W SMA or 21W EMA
- Price coming within 1% of either moving average (early warning system)
This proximity feature is useful for catching potential support/resistance tests before they actually happen, giving you advance notice to prepare for entries or exits.
## Key Features
- Weekly MAs that update daily for more responsive monitoring
- Configurable proximity threshold (default 1%, adjustable from 0.1% to 5%)
- Visual proximity zones shown as dotted lines around each MA
- Color-coded background highlighting (green when above both MAs, red when below both, orange when in proximity zone)
- On-chart labels for crosses and proximity warnings
- Status table showing current position relative to the band
## Setup for Watchlist Alerts
1. Add the indicator to any chart
2. Create alerts using these conditions:
- "BMSB Cross Alert" - fires on actual crosses
- "BMSB Proximity Alert" - fires when entering the 1% zone
3. Set interval to 1 day (recommended) or 4 hour for more frequent checks
4. Use "Once Per Bar Close" for the trigger option
5. Apply the same alert to your entire watchlist
## Settings
You can toggle on/off:
- Cross above alerts
- Cross below alerts
- Proximity alerts
- Proximity percentage adjustment
- Visual elements (labels, MA lines, proximity zones)
## Notes
The BMSB is commonly used in crypto markets to identify bull market pullback support levels. This implementation adds the proximity warning system to help you anticipate potential tests of these key levels rather than waiting for confirmed crosses.
Works on any timeframe but designed for daily monitoring of weekly moving averages.
FVG Zones with Signals█ OVERVIEW
"FVG Zones with Signals" is a technical analysis tool that identifies Fair Value Gaps (FVG) on the chart and draws customizable zones in the form of boxes. It is ideal for traders using price action and market structure strategies, helping to identify potential imbalance zones and trading opportunities based on breakout and exit signals. With flexible size filter settings, box styles, and signal options, the indicator ensures clarity and precision on the chart.
█ CONCEPTS
The indicator is designed to identify potential entry points for trades based on FVG breakouts or retests. For chart clarity, a size filter for FVGs is included, based on a multiplier of the average candle size over a specified period.
Why are FVGs important? FVG zones represent areas of market imbalance, often attracting price back to "fill" the gap. Larger gaps (with a higher size multiplier) have a greater chance of being retested, as they indicate deeper imbalances—leaving more unexecuted orders in those zones, which attracts liquidity. Market makers and institutions often return to these levels to "refresh" liquidity before further moves. However, not every large FVG is retested quickly—in strong trends, smaller imbalances may be ignored, and the location (e.g., near swing highs/lows) is critical for retest probability.
█ FEATURES
- FVG Detection: Identifies bullish and bearish FVGs based on size filters (Candle Size Period and FVG Size Multiplier), with automatic initialization of historical gaps up to 500 candles back.
- Customizable Boxes: Draws FVG boxes with adjustable border colors, background gradients, border styles (solid, dashed, dotted), border widths, and transparency for both the background and the 50% FVG midline.
- Breakout and Exit Signals: Generates "Break" signals (green upward triangle for breakouts above bearish FVG, red downward triangle for breakouts below bullish FVG) and "Exit" signals (circles for exiting the zone), with options to select signal types (Break, Exit, or Both). A break signal causes the box to disappear, leaving a triangle as a trace of the breakout, which may serve as a signal to open a position. Exit signals (circles) may also indicate entry opportunities but require additional confirmation, such as alignment with the main trend.
- Midline: Automatically draws a dashed line at the 50% FVG level with adjustable transparency, aiding in assessing price reactions within the zone.
- Box Limitation: Automatically removes old or inactive FVGs after 500 candles to avoid chart clutter.
- Alerts: Built-in alerts for all signal types, including price and FVG type descriptions.
█ HOW TO USE
Add to Chart: Apply the indicator to your TradingView chart via the Pine Editor or Indicators menu.
Configure Settings:
- FVG Settings: Adjust Candle Size Period (default 20) and FVG Size Multiplier (default 1) to filter out small gaps—higher values generate fewer but more significant FVGs.
- Box Settings: Configure colors and styles for bullish (green) and bearish (red) boxes, including background transparency (default 80) and midline transparency.
- Signal Settings: Select signal types (Break, Exit, or Both) in Signal Type. Breakout signals appear after a candle closes outside the zone, while exit signals appear when exiting an FVG without a full breakout.
- Styling: Customize signal colors (green for buy/up, red for sell/down) and shape sizes.
Interpreting Signals:
- Break Up Signal: A green triangle below the bar indicates a breakout above a bearish FVG, suggesting potential continuation of an uptrend.
- Break Down Signal: A red triangle above the bar indicates a breakout below a bullish FVG, suggesting potential continuation of a downtrend.
- Exit Up/Down Signal: A green/red circle indicates an exit from an FVG without a full breakout, which may signal the end of a correction or preparation for a reversal.
- FVG Zones: If the price returns to an FVG and fills the gap, it may indicate equilibrium; an unfilled gap often leads to a retest.
- Use signals in conjunction with other technical analysis tools for confirmation, such as RSI (to identify overbought/oversold conditions) or MACD (to confirm momentum). Analyze FVGs from higher timeframes—these zones act as stronger imbalance levels and carry greater structural significance.
Exit signals (retests without breakouts) tend to be most effective when traded in line with the current trend.
█ APPLICATIONS
- Price Action Trading: Use FVG zones as dynamic support and resistance levels. In an uptrend, look for buying opportunities in bullish FVGs, where price often tests the gap before continuing. Combining with RSI, MACD, or Fibonacci levels enhances the significance of zones.
- Breakout Strategies: Trade based on breakout signals from FVGs. A buy signal after breaking a bearish FVG may indicate a strong upward impulse, especially when supported by a rising MACD or RSI exiting oversold conditions.
Larger FVG gaps (higher multiplier) have a greater chance of retest, as they indicate deeper imbalances.
█ NOTES
- Test the indicator across different timeframes and markets (stocks, forex, crypto) to optimize size filters for your trading style.
- The indicator initializes historical FVGs up to 500 candles back, which may slow loading on longer charts.
- For best results, use on high-liquidity markets where FVGs are more frequently retested.
- In consolidation zones, the indicator may generate more false signals, so additional confirmation is recommended.
LSVR - Liquidity Sweep & Volume ReversalLSVR condenses a pro workflow into one visual overlay: Higher-Timeframe (HTF) Trend → Liquidity Sweep & Reclaim → Volume Confirmation. A signal only prints when all three gates align at bar close, and the chart shows everything you need—trend context, the sweep “trap” candle, and a projected Entry/SL/TP based on your chosen R multiple.
How it works
HTF Trend Filter: Projects a smoothed KAMA/EMA from a higher timeframe to the chart using a safe, lookahead-off request. Long signals are considered only above the HTF line; shorts only below.
Liquidity Sweep & Reclaim: Finds confirmed swing highs/lows, then detects an ATR-scaled overshoot through that swing followed by a reclaim (close back inside a configurable % of the bar range).
Volume Confirmation: Requires either a volume spike over Volume SMA × multiplier or optional OBV divergence. No participation = no signal.
Score: Each setup is scored: trend (0/1) + overshoot strength (0..1.5) + conviction (0/1). Signals fire only when the score ≥ Min Signal Score.
What you see
HTF Ribbon (subtle green/red backdrop) for bias.
Sweep Box on the signal candle (green = long, red = short).
Signal markers (“L” / “S”) with a small score label.
Projected lines that persist until the next signal: Entry (close), Stop (beyond swept swing), Target (R multiple).
Heatmap that intensifies when the score crosses your threshold.
Dashboard (top-right): HTF direction, Volume×SMA, current Score, gate pass status.
Tooltip on the last bar with quick stats.
Quick start
Apply to any liquid symbol and set HTF to ~3–6× your chart timeframe (e.g., 15m chart → 1H–4H).
Trade with the HTF trend: take L signals above the HTF line and S signals below it.
Entry = signal bar close, SL = beyond the swept swing, TP = your Projected Take-Profit (R).
Tighten or loosen selectivity with Min Signal Score, Reclaim %, Overshoot (ATR×), and Cooldown.
Recommended presets
Choppy/crypto 15m: minScore 1.25, reclaimPct 0.60–0.65, overshootATR 1.0–1.2, useOBVDiv=false, cooldown 8.
FX 5m / session trend: minScore 1.0–1.1, reclaimPct 0.50–0.55, overshootATR 0.8–1.0, useOBVDiv=true, cooldown 5.
Indices 1m (RTH): minScore 1.2, reclaimPct 0.55–0.60, useOBVDiv=false, cooldown 10.
Non-repainting by design
HTF values use lookahead_off with realtime offset.
Swings are confirmed pivots (no “forming” pivots).
Signals print at bar close only.
Notes
OBV divergence can add sensitivity on liquid markets; keep it off for stricter filtering.
Use Cooldown to avoid clustered sweeps.

Relative Strength index 2xRelative Strength Index 2×
The RSI*2 by AZly is an advanced dual-RSI indicator that allows traders to analyze momentum from two distinct perspectives — short-term and medium-term — on a single chart. It combines RSI precision with multi-timeframe flexibility, giving a clear view of both immediate and underlying momentum trends.
⚙️ How It Works
This indicator calculates and plots two fully independent RSI lines, each with customizable settings:
RSI 1 (Main RSI) : Captures medium-term momentum, ideal for trend and context.
RSI 2 (Fast RSI) : Reacts quickly to short-term moves, identifying overbought and oversold conditions.
Both RSIs include:
Custom timeframe, source, and smoothing method (SMA, EMA, WMA, VWMA, HMA, SMMA).
Gradient zones to visualize momentum strength and reversals.
Adjustable levels and colors for clear chart presentation.
📘 Andrew Cardwell Zones (RSI 1)
RSI 1 uses Andrew Cardwell’s “range rules” to distinguish bullish and bearish momentum phases:
Bullish Range: RSI holds between 40–80, finding support around 40–45.
Bearish Range: RSI stays between 20–60, with rallies capped near 55–60.
A breakout from one range into another often signals a trend phase transition — marking potential trend beginnings or endings.
⚡ Overbought/Oversold Zones (RSI 2)
RSI 2 is designed for fast reactions and reversal detection:
95–100: Extreme overbought zone — potential exhaustion and short setup.
5–0: Extreme oversold zone — potential exhaustion and long setup.
Crossing these levels highlights short-term momentum exhaustion , often preceding pullbacks or strong price reversals.
💡 Why It’s Better
Compared to traditional RSI indicators, this version provides superior control and insight:
Dual independent RSIs with separate timeframes and smoothing.
Cardwell-style range recognition for better context of trend strength.
Extreme bands for fast RSI 2 to time entries with precision.
Dynamic gradient zones for intuitive visual interpretation.
Multi-timeframe flexibility that adapts to any trading style.
🎯 Trading Concepts
Trend Confirmation:
RSI 1 above 50 (bullish range) confirms uptrend bias; below 50 (bearish range) confirms downtrend.
Reversal Setup:
RSI 2 hitting extreme zones (above 95 or below 5) while RSI 1 stays steady often signals exhaustion and reversal setups.
Divergence Confirmation:
When RSI 2 diverges from price and RSI 1 supports the direction, it strengthens reversal probability.
Range Transition:
A shift in RSI 1’s range (from bearish to bullish or vice versa) confirms a major change in market structure.
🕒 Trade Timing (Entry Ideas)
Timing is one of the indicator’s strongest features.
Wait for RSI 2 to reach an extreme zone (above 95 or below 5).
Then confirm the direction with RSI 1 — trades are most effective when RSI 1’s range aligns with the anticipated move.
Buy Setup:
RSI 1 in bullish range + RSI 2 rebounds upward from the 5 zone.
Sell Setup:
RSI 1 in bearish range + RSI 2 turns down from the 95 zone.
Best Timing:
Enter when RSI 2 crosses back inside the 10–90 range in the same direction as RSI 1’s trend.
This captures momentum just as it resumes — avoiding early or late entries.
🔷 M & W Patterns (RSI 2)
RSI 2 also reveals short-term exhaustion structures:
“ M ” Formation: Two RSI peaks near 95–100 — bearish reversal setup.
“ W ” Formation: Two RSI troughs near 0–5 — bullish reversal setup.
These shapes often appear before price reversals, offering early momentum clues.
⚠️ Important Trading Guidance
It is strongly recommended not to trade against the prevailing trend or attempt to pick exact tops or bottoms. The indicator works best when used in alignment with trend direction. Counter-trend entries carry higher risk and lower probability.
📊 Recommended Use
Ideal for momentum traders, scalpers, and multi-timeframe analysts seeking precise timing and context. Works on all markets — forex, crypto, stocks, indexes, and commodities.

Triple Gaussian Smoothed Ribbon [BOSWaves]Triple Gaussian Smoothed Ribbon – Adaptive Gaussian Framework
Overview
The Triple Gaussian Smoothed Ribbon is a next-generation market visualization framework built on the principles of Gaussian filtering - a mathematical model from digital signal processing designed to remove noise while preserving the integrity of the underlying trend.
Unlike conventional moving averages that suffer from phase lag and overreaction to volatility spikes, Gaussian smoothing produces a symmetrical, low-lag curve that isolates meaningful directional shifts with exceptional clarity.
Developed under the Adaptive Gaussian Framework, this indicator extends the classical Gaussian model into a multi-stage smoothing and visualization system. By layering three progressive Gaussian filters and rendering their interactions as a gradient-based ribbon field, it translates market energy into a coherent, visually structured trend environment. Each ribbon layer represents a progressively smoothed component of price motion, producing a high-fidelity gradient field that evolves in sync with real-time trend strength and momentum.
The result is a uniquely fluid trend and reversal detection system - one that feels organic, adapts seamlessly across timeframes, and reveals hidden transitions in market structure long before traditional indicators confirm them.
Theoretical Foundation
The Gaussian filter, derived from the Gaussian function developed by Carl Friedrich Gauss in 1809, operates on the principle of weighted symmetry, assigning higher importance to central price data while tapering influence toward historical extremes following a bell-curve distribution. This symmetrical design minimizes phase distortion and smooths without introducing lag spikes — a stark contrast to exponential or linear filters that sacrifice temporal accuracy for responsiveness.
By cascading three Gaussian stages in sequence, the indicator creates a multi-frequency decomposition of price action:
The first stage captures immediate trend transitions.
The second absorbs mid-term volatility ripples.
The third stabilizes structural directionality.
The final composite ribbon reflects the market’s dominant frequency - a smoothed yet reactive trend spine - while an independent, heavier Gaussian smoothing serves as a reference layer to gauge whether the primary motion leads or lags relative to broader market structure.
This multi-layered Gaussian framework effectively replicates the behavior of a signal-processing filter bank: isolating meaningful cyclical movements, suppressing random noise, and revealing phase shifts with minimal delay.
How It Works
Triple Gaussian Core
Price data is passed through three successive Gaussian smoothing stages, each refining the trend further and removing higher-frequency distortions.
The result is a fluid, continuously adaptive baseline that responds naturally to directional changes without overshooting or flattening key inflection points.
Adaptive Ribbon Architecture
The indicator visualizes its internal dynamics through a five-layer gradient ribbon. Each layer represents a progressively delayed Gaussian curve, creating a color field that dynamically shifts between bullish and bearish tones.
Expanding ribbons indicate accelerating momentum and trend conviction.
Compressing ribbons reflect consolidation and volatility contraction.
The smooth color gradient provides a real-time depiction of energy buildup or dissipation within the trend, making it visually clear when the market is entering a state of expansion, transition, or exhaustion.
Momentum-Weighted Opacity
Ribbon transparency adjusts according to normalized momentum strength.
As trend force builds, colors intensify and layers become more opaque, signifying conviction.
When momentum wanes, ribbons fade - an early visual cue for potential reversals or pauses in trend continuation.
Candle Gradient Integration
Optional candle coloring ties the chart’s candles to the prevailing Gaussian gradient, allowing traders to view raw price action and smoothed wave dynamics as a unified system.
This integration produces a visually coherent chart environment that communicates directional intent instantly.
Signal Detection Logic
Directional cues emerge when the smoother, broader Gaussian curve crosses the faster-reacting Gaussian line, marking structural inflection points in the filtered trend.
Bullish shifts : short-term momentum transitions upward through the long-term baseline after a localized trough.
Bearish shifts : momentum declines through the baseline following a local peak.
To maintain integrity in choppy markets, the framework applies a trend-strength and separation filter, which blocks weak or overlapping conditions where movement lacks conviction.
Interpretation
The Triple Gaussian Smoothed Ribbon provides a layered, intuitive read on market structure:
Trend Continuation : Expanding ribbons with deep color intensity confirm directional strength.
Reversal Phases : Color gradients flip direction, indicating a phase shift or exhaustion point.
Compression Zones : Tight, pale ribbons reveal equilibrium phases often preceding breakouts.
Momentum Divergence : Fading color intensity despite continued price movement signals weakening conviction.
These transitions mirror the natural ebb and flow of market energy - captured through the Gaussian filter’s ability to represent smooth curvature without distortion.
Strategy Integration
Trend Following
Engage during strong directional expansions. When ribbons widen and color gradients intensify, the trend is accelerating with high confidence.
Reversal Identification
Monitor for full gradient inversion and fading momentum opacity. These conditions often precede transitional phases and early reversals.
Breakout Anticipation
Flat, compressed ribbons signal low volatility and energy buildup. A sudden gradient expansion with renewed opacity confirms breakout initiation.
Multi-Timeframe Alignment
Use higher timeframes to establish directional bias and lower timeframes for entry during compression-to-expansion transitions.
Technical Implementation Details
Triple Gaussian Stack : Sequential smoothing stages produce low-lag, high-purity signals.
Adaptive Ribbon Rendering : Five-layer Gaussian visualization for gradient-based trend depth.
Momentum Normalization : Opacity dynamically tied to trend strength and volatility context.
Consolidation Filter : Suppresses false signals in low-energy or range-bound conditions.
Integrated Candle Mode : Optional color synchronization with underlying gradient flow.
Alert System : Built-in notifications for bullish and bearish transitions.
This structure blends the precision of digital signal processing with the readability of visual market analysis, creating a clean but information-rich framework.
Optimal Application Parameters
Asset Recommendations
Cryptocurrency : Higher smoothing and sigma for stability under volatility.
Forex : Balanced parameters for cycle identification and reduced noise.
Equities : Moderate Gaussian length for responsive yet stable trend reads.
Indices & Futures : Longer smoothing periods for structural confirmation.
Timeframe Recommendations
Scalping (1 - 5m) : Use shorter smoothing for fast reactivity.
Intraday (15m - 1h) : Mid-length Gaussian chain for balance.
Swing (4h - 1D) : Prioritize clarity and opacity-driven trend phases.
Position (Daily - Weekly) : Longer smoothing to capture macro rhythm.
Performance Characteristics
Most Effective In :
Trending markets with recurring volatility cycles.
Transitional phases where early directional confirmation is crucial.
Less Effective In:
Ultra-low volume markets with erratic tick data.
Random, micro-chop conditions with no structural flow.
Integration Guidelines
Pair with volatility or volume expansion tools for enhanced breakout confirmation.
Use ribbon compression to anticipate volatility shifts.
Align entries with gradient expansion in the dominant color direction.
Scale position size relative to opacity strength and ribbon width.
Disclaimer
The Triple Gaussian Smoothed Ribbon – Adaptive Gaussian Framework is designed as a signal visualization and trend interpretation tool, not a standalone trading system. Its accuracy depends on appropriate parameter tuning, contextual confirmation, and disciplined risk management. It should be applied as part of a comprehensive technical or algorithmic trading strategy.
Ichimoku Screener [Pineify]Advanced Multi-Timeframe Ichimoku Screener - Complete Market Analysis Tool
This sophisticated Ichimoku Screener represents a comprehensive approach to multi-timeframe market analysis, combining four distinct Ichimoku-based indicators into a unified screening system. Unlike traditional single-symbol indicators, this screener provides simultaneous analysis across multiple assets and timeframes, enabling traders to identify optimal trading opportunities with enhanced precision and efficiency.
Key Features
Multi-asset screening capability for up to 10 symbols simultaneously
Four customizable timeframes per symbol for comprehensive analysis
Four integrated Ichimoku-based indicators working in harmony
Real-time visual feedback with color-coded signals
Customizable Ichimoku parameters for personalized analysis
Clean, organized table display for easy interpretation
Automated signal strength assessment and timing
How It Works
The screener employs the traditional Ichimoku Kinko Hyo methodology, utilizing five core components: Conversion Line (Tenkan-sen), Base Line (Kijun-sen), Leading Span A (Senkou Span A), Leading Span B (Senkou Span B), and displacement calculations. Each component is mathematically calculated using specific period lengths:
Conversion Line = (Highest High + Lowest Low) / 2 over conversion period
Base Line = (Highest High + Lowest Low) / 2 over base period
Leading Span A = (Conversion Line + Base Line) / 2
Leading Span B = (Highest High + Lowest Low) / 2 over lagging span period
The screener processes these calculations across multiple securities simultaneously using TradingView's security() function, enabling real-time cross-asset analysis. The system tracks state changes using barssince() functions to provide precise timing information for each signal type.
Trading Ideas and Insights
This screener excels in identifying momentum convergence patterns where multiple Ichimoku components align across different timeframes. The most powerful signals occur when:
Cloud color aligns with price position relative to the cloud
Conversion Line crosses above/below Base Line in the same direction as cloud bias
Multiple timeframes show consistent directional bias
Entry signals appear with minimal bars since formation (indicating fresh momentum)
For trend following strategies , focus on symbols where the cloud maintains consistent color across higher timeframes while showing recent entry signals on lower timeframes. For reversal opportunities , identify assets where cloud color changes coincide with price re-entering the cloud after extended periods above or below.
The screener particularly excels in cryptocurrency and forex markets where momentum shifts can be dramatic and sustained. By monitoring multiple timeframes simultaneously, traders can identify when short-term signals align with longer-term trends, significantly improving trade success probability.
How Multiple Indicators Work Together
The four integrated indicators create a comprehensive analytical framework through synergistic interaction:
Ichimoku Cloud (IchiCld) establishes the primary trend bias by comparing Leading Span A with Leading Span B. When Span A > Span B, the cloud displays bullish characteristics; when Span A < Span B, bearish characteristics emerge. The indicator tracks duration since the last cloud color change, providing momentum persistence insight.
Ichimoku Lagging Cloud (IchiLagCld) determines price position relative to the displaced cloud formation. This indicator identifies whether current price action occurs above, below, or within the cloud structure, revealing support/resistance dynamics and trend confirmation signals.
Conversion vs Base (IchiC>Base) monitors the relationship between short-term (Conversion Line) and medium-term (Base Line) momentum. Crossovers in this relationship often precede significant price movements and provide early trend change warnings.
Ichimoku Entry (IchiEnt) synthesizes all components into actionable signals by requiring alignment between cloud bias, price position, and conversion/base relationship. This multi-factor confirmation approach significantly reduces false signals while maintaining sensitivity to genuine momentum shifts.
The mathematical foundation ensures that each indicator contributes unique information while maintaining logical consistency. The system's strength lies in requiring multiple confirmations before generating entry signals, following Ichimoku's original philosophy of comprehensive market analysis.
Unique Aspects
This implementation distinguishes itself through several innovative features:
Advanced State Tracking : Unlike standard Ichimoku indicators that show current values, this screener tracks duration since state changes , providing crucial timing information for signal freshness and momentum strength assessment.
Multi-Asset Efficiency : The screener eliminates the need to manually check multiple charts by presenting comparative analysis across assets and timeframes in a single view, dramatically improving analytical efficiency.
Customizable Visual Feedback : The color-coding system adapts to different signal types and strengths, with recent signals receiving enhanced visual prominence to draw attention to fresh opportunities.
Professional Table Architecture : The organized display accommodates up to 40 symbol-timeframe combinations (10 symbols × 4 timeframes), with intelligent pagination for optimal screen utilization.
Signal Correlation Analysis : By displaying multiple timeframes for each symbol, traders can quickly identify timeframe confluence and divergence patterns that would otherwise require extensive manual analysis.
How to Use
Symbol Configuration : Enter up to 10 symbols in the Symbol input group. Use full exchange:ticker format for optimal compatibility (e.g., "BINANCE:BTCUSDT").
Timeframe Selection : Configure four timeframes in ascending order for logical analysis progression. Recommended combinations include 1m/5m/15m/1h for intraday analysis or 1h/4h/1D/1W for swing trading.
Ichimoku Parameters : Adjust the four core parameters based on your trading style:
Conversion Line Length (default: 9) - Controls short-term momentum sensitivity
Base Line Length (default: 26) - Determines medium-term trend identification
Leading Span B Length (default: 52) - Sets long-term trend calculation period
Displacement (default: 26) - Controls forward projection of cloud structure
Signal Interpretation :
Green backgrounds indicate bullish conditions
Red backgrounds indicate bearish conditions
Numerical values show bars since last state change
"L:" prefix indicates long entry signals
"S:" prefix indicates short entry signals
"N/A" indicates neutral/transitional states
Trading Workflow : Scan for symbols showing consistent signals across multiple timeframes, prioritize fresh signals (low bar counts), and use individual charts for precise entry timing and risk management.
Customization
The screener accommodates various trading approaches through parameter adjustment:
Scalping Configuration : Use shorter periods (Conversion: 5, Base: 13, Span B: 26) with 1m/3m/5m/15m timeframes for high-frequency opportunities.
Swing Trading Setup : Employ standard parameters with 4h/1D/3D/1W timeframes for position trading across days or weeks.
Cryptocurrency Optimization : Given crypto's 24/7 nature, consider using 4h/8h/1D/3D combinations for optimal signal timing.
Symbol selection can focus on correlated assets (e.g., major cryptocurrencies) for sector analysis or diverse assets for portfolio opportunity identification. The flexible timeframe configuration allows adaptation to any market's characteristic volatility and trading patterns.

BTC 5-MA Multi Cross Strategy By Hardik Prajapati Ai TradelabThis strategy is built around the five most powerful and commonly used moving averages in crypto trading — 5, 20, 50, 100, and 200-period SMAs (Simple Moving Averages) — applied on a 1-hour Bitcoin chart.
Core Idea:
The strategy aims to identify strong bullish trends by confirming when the price action crosses above all key moving averages. This alignment of multiple MAs indicates momentum shift and helps filter out false breakouts.
⸻
⚙️ How It Works:
1. Calculates 5 Moving Averages:
• 5 MA → Short-term momentum (fastest signal)
• 20 MA → Near-term trend confirmation
• 50 MA → Mid-term trend filter
• 100 MA → Long-term trend foundation
• 200 MA → Macro-trend direction (strongest support/resistance)
2. Buy Condition (Entry):
• A Buy is triggered when:
• The price crosses above the 5 MA, and
• The closing price remains above all other MAs (20, 50, 100, 200)
This signals that momentum is aligned across all time horizons — a strong uptrend confirmation.
3. Sell Condition (Exit):
• The position is closed when price crosses below the 20 MA, showing weakness in short-term momentum.
4. Visual Signals:
• 🟢 BUY triangle below candles → Entry signal
• 🔴 SELL triangle above candles → Exit signal
• Colored MAs plotted for trend clarity.
⸻
📈 Recommended Usage:
• Chart: BTC/USDT
• Timeframe: 1 Hour
• Type: Trend-following crossover strategy
• Ideal for: Identifying major breakout moves and confirming trend reversals.
⸻

Fully customizable for symbols and timeframes
How It Works
The heart of this screener is the TTM Squeeze algorithm—a hybrid volatility and momentum indicator leveraging Bollinger Bands, Keltner Channels, and linear momentum analysis. The script checks whether Bollinger Bands are “squeezed” inside Keltner Channels, flagging periods of low volatility primed for expansion. Once a squeeze is released, the included momentum calculation suggests the likely breakout direction.
For each selected symbol and timeframe, the screener runs the TTM Squeeze logic, outputs “SQUEEZE” or “NO SQZ”, and tags momentum values. A table layout organizes the results, allowing rapid pattern recognition across symbols.
Trading Ideas and Insights
Spot multi-symbol volatility clusters—ideal for finding synchronized market moves
Assess breakout potential and direction before entering trades
Scalping and swing trading decisions are enhanced by cross-timeframe momentum filtering
Portfolio managers can quickly identify which assets are about to move
How Multiple Indicators Work Together
This screener unites three essential concepts:
Bollinger Bands : Measure volatility using standard deviation of price
Keltner Channels : Define expected price range based on average true range (ATR)
Momentum : Linear regression calculation to evaluate the direction and intensity after a squeeze
By combining these, the indicator not only signals when volatility compresses and releases, but also adds directional context—filtering false signals and helping traders time entries and exits more precisely.
Unique Aspects
Multi-symbol, multi-timeframe architecture—optimized for crypto traders and market scanners
Advanced table visualization—see all signals at a glance, minimizing cognitive overload
Modular calculation functions—easy to adapt and extend for other asset classes or strategies

Impulse Range Compression & Expansion (IRCE)📌 Impulse Range Compression & Expansion (IRCE) – Visualizing Price Traps Before Breakouts
📖 Overview
The IRCE Indicator is a precision breakout detection tool designed to identify consolidation traps and price coil zones before expansion moves occur. Unlike traditional volatility indicators that rely solely on statistical thresholds (e.g., Bollinger Bands or ATR), IRCE focuses on behavioral price compression, detecting tight-range candle clusters and validating breakouts through body expansion and/or volume surges.
This makes it ideal for traders looking to:
• Catch breakouts from range traps
• Avoid choppy and premature signals
• Spot early-stage momentum moves based on clean price behavior
⸻
⚙️ How It Works
1. Impulse Range Compression Detection
• Measures the high-low range of each candle
• Compares it to a user-defined average range (default 7 bars)
• Flags candles where the range is significantly smaller (e.g., <60% of average)
• Groups these into tight clusters, indicating compression zones or potential “trap ranges”
2. Cluster Box Construction
• When a valid cluster (e.g., 3 or more tight candles) is detected, the indicator:
• Marks the high and low of the cluster
• Draws a shaded box over this “trap zone”
• This helps visually track where price has coiled before a breakout
3. Breakout Confirmation Logic
A breakout from the trap zone is only validated when:
• Price closes above the cluster high (bullish) or below the cluster low (bearish)
• One or both of the following confirm strength:
• Body Expansion: Current candle body is 120%+ of recent average
• Volume Expansion: Volume exceeds recent volume average
4. Optional Trend Filter
• An optional EMA filter (default: 50 EMA) ensures breakout signals align with trend direction
• Helps filter out countertrend noise in ranging markets
5. Signal Cooldown
• Prevents repeated signals by enforcing a cooldown period (e.g., 10 bars) between entries
⸻
🖥️ Visual Elements
• 📦 Yellow compression boxes represent tight price traps
• 🟢 Buy labels appear when price breaks above the trap with confirmation
• 🔴 Sell labels appear when price breaks below with confirmation
• All visuals are non-repainting and updated in real-time
🧠 How to Use
1. Wait for a yellow trap box to appear
2. Watch for a confirmed breakout from the trap zone
3. Take the trade in the direction of the breakout:
• Only if it satisfies body or volume confirmation
• And if trend alignment is enabled, it must match EMA direction
4. Place stops just outside the opposite end of the trap zone
5. Use risk/reward ratios or structure levels for exits
This logic works great on:
• Lower timeframes (scalping breakouts)
• Higher timeframes (detecting price coiling before major moves)
• Any market: Stocks, Crypto, FX, Commodities
⸻
🔒 Technical Notes
• ✅ No repainting
• ✅ No future-looking logic
• ✅ Suitable for both discretionary and systematic traders
• ✅ Built in Pine Script v6
自定义均线（多色 & 分级线宽）Title: Multi-Color Moving Average Suite (MA5…MA4320) — Pine v6
Summary (1–2 lines):
An overlay indicator that plots a full ladder of SMA lines from MA5 up to MA4320. Each MA has a unique color, and line width scales with period (short = thin, mid = medium, long = thick) to make trend structure easy to read at a glance.
What it does
• Plots 16 simple moving averages: 5, 10, 20, 30, 60, 120, 160, 240, 480, 720, 960, 1440, 1750, 2880, 4320.
• Distinct colors for every MA to avoid confusion when lines cluster.
• Period-based thickness:
• Short-term (<60) = thin,
• Mid-term (60–160) = medium,
• Long-term (≥240) = thick (capped; no unlimited growth).
• Designed for quick trend reading across intraday to multi-year cycles (especially useful for 24/7 markets like crypto).
How to use
1. Add the indicator to any chart (works on all symbols/timeframes).
2. Use the thin/medium/thick visual hierarchy to identify short-/mid-/long-term bias and crossovers.
3. On very low timeframes, consider hiding some ultra-long MAs if your chart has insufficient history.
Notes
• Built with Pine Script v6; uses ta.sma(close, length) only (no repainting).
• Very long MAs (e.g., 2880/4320) require enough bars; they will display na until sufficient history loads.
• No inputs/alerts by default—kept intentionally simple for clarity. (Easy to extend with toggles, custom colors, EMA/WMA options, alerts, etc.)

How It Works
The MA Distance Screener acts as a dynamic multi-symbol, multi-timeframe scanner. For each selected symbol and timeframe, it calculates the percentage distance between the latest close price and the selected type of moving average (EMA/SMA/etc.). This is achieved by making secure `request.security` calls per asset/timeframe combination, retrieving updated values for each matrix cell. The computed distance (%) is displayed in a color-coded table: a positive value signals price above the MA (potential trend strength), while negatives indicate price below the MA (potential weakness or retracement). Custom colors highlight extreme overbought/oversold readings for quick visual cues.
Trading Ideas and Insights
Quickly spot assets showing the largest deviation from their moving averages – ideal for mean reversion or trend-following entries.
Identify clusters of assets and timeframes lining up in overbought or oversold states; optimize entries with multi-timeframe confirmation.
Scan the market in one glance—reduce chart-hopping and never miss an opportunity when multiple assets align for signals.
The ability to scan distance-to-MA across assets and periods gives traders a statistical edge, surfacing hidden pivots, breakouts, and mean-reversion trades that single-chart analysis may miss.
How Multiple Indicators Work Together
At its core, this screener allows the trader to configure what gets scanned—pick your top 10 assets and favorite 4 timeframes. With each matrix cell, the selected MA (e.g., 14-period EMA) is recalculated, and the current price's distance (%) from that value is computed. By offering six distinct moving average algorithms (EMA, SMA, RMA, HMA, WMA, VWMA), traders can choose their preferred method, adapting the screener for trend, swing, or mean-reversion style. All values are visualized in a single table, creating a true "market dashboard" effect for real-time cross-asset assessment.

Set the 4 timeframes to scan (e.g., 1m, 5m, 15m, 1h), plus your preferred moving average length and type.
Review the results in the pop-up table, where each cell shows "% Distance" from MA for each symbol/timeframe.
Monitor table background/text color for overbought vs. oversold cues.
