[BTX] Triple TRIX + MAsThis indicator suggest a strategy, which is quite similar to multiple MA or multiple RSI strategies.
This indicator can be used for all timeframes, all markets.
This indicator can help detect the market trend and momentum.
Default values are TRIX - 6, 12, and 24 periods and MA(8) for each TRIX line. You can choose what type of MA to be used (EMA or SMA).
How to exploit this indicator?
- When all of the lower TRIXs are ABOVE the higher one: TRIX(6) is above TRIX(12), and TRIX(12) is above TRIX(24), there is a BULLISH market.
- When all of the lower TRIXs are BELOW the higher one: TRIX(6) is below TRIX(12), and TRIX(12) is below TRIX(24), there is a BEARISH market.
- A crossover of the lower TRIX to the higher one indicates a BUY signal.
- A crossunder of the lower TRIX to the higher one indicates a SELL signal.
- TRIX crossover the Zero line can be considered as a STRONG bullish signal.
- TRIX crossunder the Zero line can be considered as a STRONG bearish signal.
- The MA of TRIX acts as a confirmation, it can be used as SELL signals.
- High slopes of TRIX lines can point out the high momentum of the current trend.
- Divergence patterns can be used with this indicator.
- And many more tricks.

OVL_Kikoocycle Beta_Pine3This script use :
- A custom Chande Kroll Stop for generate the channel
- Some custom Parabolic S.A.R for generate cycles
This script can be separated into 3 categories:
- Channel Kroll generator : one layer for the actual interval and a layer for a Large Timeframe .(with ratio)
- "Range" generator : one layer for actual Interval and a layer for a Large Timeframe.(with automique ratio)
-Targets generator : one layer for actual interval with different trend.
"Channel Kroll" :
- I "hijack" the Chande Kroll Stop formula with custom parameters for generate this channel. Overall, it works like other types of channels like BB, etc... A midline and two borders. The thickness of the borders are relatively important here. A thick border shows some resistance of the area. And so the probability of seeing the market return to its first contact is stronger. While a very thin and vertical border would rather play the role of a breach, a bit like the idea of gaps. Often the market seems to want to go after several cycles.
You can activate its Large TimeFrame version, its midline is strong and fine borders helps to judge the risk.
SARget + "SAR Limited" :
- (S.A.R + targets) The philosophy of this function is simple... When a small cycle is broken, it creates a mark on a higher cycle. So on until the SAR called "SAR Limited". For simplicity, imagine a fractal image but inverted ... Break the small figure, it will mark the larger figure at this time but to get there you still have to make the way to the small figure.
Targets are : cross ("+") for fast targets(hidden by default because, theire work only on lower interval), squares (for medium trend), Xcross(for large trend) and red cross(they try to find a large contexte). When a target proc, it is for later (market need some cycles for going to, but it is relative to your interval). This gives you speculative goals.
Why 2 targets for a same type and a triangle with a 90deg angle : This give a potential area for management.The triangle help to visualize the SAR and to juge the market reaction. You need to adapte your trade with that...
Targets may be slightly too far because I am a bad coder... Currently the targets appear at the moment of rupture but it would be necessary to wait for the end of the breaking movement. Which can bring a positional error if the break is violent.
RnG and LTF RnG :
- Attempt to generate a Fibo range for each cycle and see interressing areas to enter or exit. This is played with the same philosophy as the Fibo extensions and retracement.
When a new RnG is generated, do not rush. It appears showing 50/50 for both sides. When a new RnG is generated, do not rush. It appears showing 50/50 for both sides. As long as the market is out of the middle zone (the 3 lines) keep in mind the past RnG.
When the market is out of range, you can use the FibRetracement tool for have extensions. One point at each end, as on the presentation graph. (Values 1.14, 1.272, 1.414, 1.618, 1.786, 2, 2.4 and 4 work well.) If too extrem you can active the LTF version.
Never fomo a break, market like to pull a level... Observe and be patient.
It's easier to use than to explain xD
NB : Do not use the LTF as context. For this, it is better to look at a higher interval.
I invite you to look in the style tab of the script and deselect the plots named UNCHECKEME, this will ease your browser.
10/20 MA Cross-Over with Heikin-Ashi Signals by SchobbejakThe 10/20 MA Heikin-Ashi Strategy is the best I know. It's easy, it's elegant, it's effective.
It's particularly effective in markets that trend on the daily. You may lose some money when markets are choppy, but your loss will be more than compensated when you're aboard during the big moves at the beginning of a trend or after retraces. There's that, and you nearly eliminate the risk of losing your profit in the long run.
The results are good throughout most assets, and at their best when an asset is making new all-time highs.
It uses two simple moving averages: the 10 MA (blue), and the 20 MA (red), together with heikin-ashi candles. Now here's the great thing. This script does not change your regular candles into heikin-ashi ones, which would have been annoying; instead, it subtly prints either a blue dot or a red square around your normal candles, indicating a heikin-ashi change from red to green, or from green to red, respectively. This way, you get both regular and heikin ashi "candles" on your chart.
Here's how to use it.
Go LONG in case of ALL of the below:
1) A blue dot appeared under the last daily candle (meaning the heikin-ashi is now "green").
2) The blue MA-line is above the red MA-line.
3) Price has recently breached the blue MA-line upwards, and is now above.
COVER when one or more of the above is no longer the case. This is very important. You want to keep your profit.
Go SHORT in case of ALL of the below:
1) A red square appeared above the last daily candle (meaning the heikin-ashi is now "red").
2) The red MA-line is above the blue MA-line.
3) Price has recently breached the blue MA-line downwards, and is now below.
Again, COVER when one or more of the above is no longer the case. This is what gives you your edge.
It's that easy.
Now, why did I make the signal blue, and not green? Because blue looks much better with red than green does. It's my firm believe one does not become rich using ugly charts.
Good luck trading.

ABK Multi EMA I really like to work with EMAs, but each time you use the "buit-in" one, you use one more slot in your indicators allowed.
So I built this simple one, 4 EMA in one indicator, and easy to use as following;
-displays 4 EMAs
-choose your EMA lenghts.
-choose your color and other options as needed.
5 MAs w. alerts [LucF]Is this gazillionth MA indicator worth an addition to the already crowded field of contenders? I say yes! This one shows up to 5 MAs and 6 different marker conditions that can be used to create alerts, among many other goodies.
Features
MAs can be darkened when they are falling.
MAs from another time frame can be displayed, with the option of smoothing them.
Markers can be filtered to Longs or Shorts only.
EMAs can be selected for either all or the two shortest MAs.
The background can be colored using any of the marker states except no. 3.
Markers are:
1. On crosses between any two user-defined MAs,
2. When price is above or below an MA,
3. On Quick Flips (a specific setup involving a cross, multiple MA states and increasing volume, when available),
4. When the difference between two MAs is within a % of its high/low historic values,
5. When an MA has been rising/falling for n bars,
6. When the difference between two MAs is greater than a multiple of ATR.
Some markers use similar visual cues, so distinguishing them will be a challenge if they are used concurrently.
Alerts
Alerts can be created on any combination of alerts. Only non-consecutive instances of markers 5 and 6 will trigger the alert condition. Make sure you are on the interval you want the alert to run at. Using the “Once Per Bar Close” trigger condition is usually the best option.
When an alert is created in TradingView, a snapshot of the indicator’s settings is saved with the alert, which then takes on a life of its own. That is why even though there is only one alert to choose from when you bring up the alert creation dialog box and choose “5 MAs”, that alert can be triggered from any number of conditions. You select those conditions by activating the markers you want the alert to trigger on before creating the alert. If you have selected multiple conditions, then it can be a good idea to record a reminder in the alert’s message field. When the alert triggers, you will need the indicator on the chart to figure out which one of your conditions triggered the alert, as there is currently no way to dynamically change the alert’s message field from within the script.
Background settings will not trigger alerts; only marker configurations.
Notes
MAs are just… averages. Trader lure would have them act as support and resistance levels. I’m not sure about that, and not the only one thinking along these lines. Adam Grimes has studied moving averages in quite a bit of detail. His numbers point to no evidence indicating they act as support/resistance, and to specific MA lengths not being more meaningful than others. His point of view is debated by some—not by me. Mean reversion does not entail that price stops when it reaches its MA; rather, it makes sense to me that price would often more or less oscillate around its MA, which entails the MA does not act as support/resistance. Aren’t the best mean reversion opportunities when price is furthest away from its MA? If so, it should be more profitable to identify these areas, which some of this indicator’s markers try to do.
I think MAs can be much more powerful when thought of as instruments we can use to situate price events in contexts of various resolutions, from the instantaneous to the big picture. Accordingly, I use the relative positions and slopes of MAs in both discretionary and automated trading; but never their purported ability to support/resist.
Regardless of how you use MAs, I hope you will find this indicator useful.

Moving averages: digging deeper
[CS] NWMA Moving Average 3.0PineScript Implementation of Moving Average 3.0 first referenced by Manfred G. Dürschner as New wma or Nwma.
See amazing original paper Moving Averages 3.0 at page 27:
ifta.org
As shown in the picture Nwma is performing better than DEMA, TEMA, EMA, and other common used moving averages such as Hull MA that is prone to overshooting. With NWMA lag is extremely reduced.

Nyquist Criterion
In signal processing theory, the application of a MA to itself can be seen as a Sampling procedure. The sampled signal is the MA (referred to as MA1) and the sampling signal is the MA as well (referred to as MA2). If additional periodic cycles which are not included in the price series are to be avoided sampling must obey the Nyquist Criterion . With the cycle period as parameter, the usual one in Technical Analysis, the Nyquist Criterion reads as follows: n1 = λ*n2 , with λ ≥ 2. n1 is the cycle period of the sampled signal to which a sampling signal with cycle period n2 is applied. n1 must at least be twice as large as n2. In Mulloy´s and Ehlers´ approaches (referred to as Moving Averages 2.0) both cycle periods are equal. Moving Averages 3.0 Using the Nyquist Criterion there is a relation by which the application of a MA to itself can be described more precisely. In figure 2 a price series C (black line), one MA (MA1, red line) with lag L1 to the price series and another MA with lag L2 to MA1 (MA2, blue line) are illustrated. Based on the approximation and the relations described in figure 2 the following equation holds: (1) D1/D2 = (C – MA1)/(MA1 – MA2) = L1/L2 According to the lag formulas in the introduction L1/L2 can be written as follows:
α := L1/L2 = (n1 – 1)/(n2 – 1).
In this expression denominator 2 for the SMA and EMA as well as denominator 3 for the WMA are missing. α is therefore valid for all three MAs.
Using the Nyquist Criterion one gets for α the following result:
(2) α = λ* (n1 – 1)/(n1 – λ).
α put in (1) and C replaced by the approximation term NMA, the notation for the new MA, one gets:
NMA = (1 +α) MA1 – α MA2.
In detail, equation (2) reads as follows:
(3) NMA = (1 + α) MA1 – α
MA2 ,
(4) α = λ* (n1 – 1)/(n1 – λ), with λ ≥ 2.
(3) and (4) are equations for a group of MAs (notation: Moving Averages 3.0). They are independent of the choice of an MA. As the WMA shows the smallest lag (see introduction), it should generally be the first choice for the NMA. n1 = n2 results in the value 1 for α and λ, respectively. Then equation (3) passes into Ehlers´ formula. Thus Ehlers´ formula is included in the NMA formula as limiting value. It follows from a short calculation that the lag for NMA results in a theoretical value zero.

General Filter Estimator-An Experiment on Estimating EverythingIntroduction
The last indicators i posted where about estimating the least squares moving average, the task of estimating a filter is a funny one because its always a challenge and it require to be really creative. After the last publication of the 1LC-LSMA , who estimate the lsma with 1 line of code and only 3 functions i felt like i could maybe make something more flexible and less complex with the ability to approximate any filter output. Its possible, but the methods to do so are not something that pinescript can do, we have to use another base for our estimation using coefficients, so i inspired myself from the alpha-beta filter and i started writing the code.
Calculation and The Estimation Coefficients
Simplicity is the key word, its also my signature style, if i want something good it should be simple enough, so my code look like that :
p = length/beta
a = close - nz(b ,close)
b = nz(b ,close) + a/p*gamma
3 line, 2 function, its a good start, we could put everything in one line of code but its easier to see it this way. length control the smoothing amount of the filter, for any filter f(Period) Period should be equal to length and f(Period) = p , it would be inconvenient to have to use a different length period than the one used in the filter we want to estimate (imagine our estimation with length = 50 estimating an ema with period = 100) , this is where the first coefficients beta will be useful, it will allow us to leave length as it is. In general beta will be greater than 1, the greater it will be the less lag the filter will have, this coefficient will be useful to estimate low lagging filters, gamma however is the coefficient who will estimate lagging filters, in general it will range around .
We can get loose easily with those coefficients estimation but i will leave a coefficients table in the code for estimating popular filters, and some comparison below.
Estimating a Simple Moving Average
Of course, the boxcar filter, the running mean, the simple moving average, its an easy filter to use and calculate.
For an SMA use the following coefficients :
beta = 2
gamma = 0.5
Our filter is in red and the moving average in white with both length at 50 (This goes for every comparison we will do)
Its a bit imprecise but its a simple moving average, not the most interesting thing to estimate.
Estimating an Exponential Moving Average
The ema is a great filter because its length times more computing efficient than a simple moving average. For the EMA use the following coefficients :
beta = 3
gamma = 0.4
N.B : The EMA is rougher than the SMA, so it filter less, this is why its faster and closer to the price
Estimating The Hull Moving Average
Its a good filter for technical analysis with tons of use, lets try to estimate it ! For the HMA use the following coefficients :
beta = 4
gamma = 0.85
Looks ok, of course if you find better coefficients i will test them and actualize the coefficient table, i will also put a thank message.
Estimating a LSMA
Of course i was gonna estimate it, but this time this estimation does not have anything a lsma have, no moving average, no standard deviation, no correlation coefficient, lets do it.
For the LSMA use the following coefficients :
beta = 3.5
gamma = 0.9
Its far from being the best estimation, but its more efficient than any other i previously made.
Estimating the Quadratic Least Square Moving Average
I doubted about this one but it can be approximated as well. For the QLSMA use the following coefficients :
beta = 5.25
gamma = 1
Another ok estimate, the estimate filter a bit more than needed but its ok.
Jurik Moving Average
Its far from being a filter that i like and its a bit old. For the comparison i will use the JMA provided by @everget described in this article : c.mql5.com
For the JMA use the following coefficients :
for phase = 0
beta = pow*2 (pow is a parameter in the Jma)
gamma = 0.5
Here length = 50, phase = 0, pow = 5 so beta = 10
Looks pretty good considering the fact that the Jma use an adaptive architecture.
Discussion
I let you the task to judge if the estimation is good or not, my motivation was to estimate such filters using the less amount of calculations as possible, in itself i think that the code is quite elegant like all the codes of IIR filters (IIR Filters = Infinite Impulse Response : Filters using recursion) .
It could be possible to have a better estimate of the coefficients using optimization methods like the gradient descent. This is not feasible in pinescript but i could think about it using python or R.
Coefficients should be dependant of length but this would lead to a massive work, the variation of the estimation using fixed coefficients when using different length periods is just ok if we can allow some errors of precision.
I dont think it should be possible to estimate adaptive filter relying a lot on their adaptive parameter/smoothing constant except by making our coefficients adaptive (gamma could be)
So at the end ? What make a filter truly unique ? From my point of sight the architecture of a filter and the problem he is trying to solve is what make him unique rather than its output result. If you become a signal, hide yourself into noise, then look at the filters trying to find you, what a challenging game, this is why we need filters.
Conclusion
I wanted to give a simple filter estimator relying on two coefficients in order to estimate both lagging and low-lagging filters. I will try to give more precise estimate and update the indicator with new coefficients.

Tillson T3 Moving Average MTFMULTIPLE TIME FRAME version of Tillson T3 Moving Average Indicator
Developed by Tim Tillson, the T3 Moving Average is considered superior -1.60% to traditional moving averages as it is smoother, more responsive and thus performs better in ranging market conditions as well. However, it bears the disadvantage of overshooting the price as it attempts to realign itself to current market conditions.
It incorporates a smoothing technique which allows it to plot curves more gradual than ordinary moving averages and with a smaller lag. Its smoothness is derived from the fact that it is a weighted sum of a single EMA , double EMA , triple EMA and so on. When a trend is formed, the price action will stay above or below the trend during most of its progression and will hardly be touched by any swings. Thus, a confirmed penetration of the T3 MA and the lack of a following reversal often indicates the end of a trend.
The T3 Moving Average generally produces entry signals similar to other moving averages and thus is traded largely in the same manner. Here are several assumptions:
If the price action is above the T3 Moving Average and the indicator is headed upward, then we have a bullish trend and should only enter long trades (advisable for novice/intermediate traders). If the price is below the T3 Moving Average and it is edging lower, then we have a bearish trend and should limit entries to short. Below you can see it visualized in a trading platform.
Although the T3 MA is considered as one of the best swing following indicators that can be used on all time frames and in any market, it is still not advisable for novice/intermediate traders to increase their risk level and enter the market during trading ranges (especially tight ones). Thus, for the purposes of this article we will limit our entry signals only to such in trending conditions.
Once the market is displaying trending behavior, we can place with-trend entry orders as soon as the price pulls back to the moving average (undershooting or overshooting it will also work). As we know, moving averages are strong resistance/support levels, thus the price is more likely to rebound from them and resume its with-trend direction instead of penetrating it and reversing the trend.
And so, in a bull trend, if the market pulls back to the moving average, we can fairly safely assume that it will bounce off the T3 MA and resume upward momentum, thus we can go long. The same logic is in force during a bearish trend .
And last but not least, the T3 Moving Average can be used to generate entry signals upon crossing with another T3 MA with a longer trackback period (just like any other moving average crossover). When the fast T3 crosses the slower one from below and edges higher, this is called a Golden Cross and produces a bullish entry signal. When the faster T3 crosses the slower one from above and declines further, the scenario is called a Death Cross and signifies bearish conditions.
I Personally added a second T3 line with a volume factor of 0.618 (Fibonacci Ratio) and length of 3 (fibonacci number) which can be added by selecting the box in the input section. traders can combine the two lines to have Buy/Sell signals from the crosses.

About INVERSE FISHER TRANSFORM:
The purpose of technical indicators is to help with your timing decisions to buy or sell. Hopefully, the signals are clear and unequivocal. However, more often than not your decision to pull the trigger is accompanied by crossing your fingers. Even if you have placed only a few trades you know the drill. In this article I will show you a way to make your oscillator-type indicators make clear black-or-white indication of the time to buy or sell. I will do this by using the Inverse Fisher Transform to alter the Probability Distribution Function (PDF) of your indicators. In the past12 I have noted that the PDF of price and indicators do not have a Gaussian, or Normal, probability distribution. A Gaussian PDF is the familiar bell-shaped curve where the long “tails” mean that wide deviations from the mean occur with relatively low probability. The Fisher Transform can be applied to almost any normalized data set to make the resulting PDF nearly Gaussian, with the result that the turning points are sharply peaked and easy to identify. The Fisher Transform is defined by the equation
1)
Whereas the Fisher Transform is expansive, the Inverse Fisher Transform is compressive. The Inverse Fisher Transform is found by solving equation 1 for x in terms of y. The Inverse Fisher Transform is:
2)
The transfer response of the Inverse Fisher Transform is shown in Figure 1. If the input falls between –0.5 and +0.5, the output is nearly the same as the input. For larger absolute values (say, larger than 2), the output is compressed to be no larger than unity. The result of using the Inverse Fisher Transform is that the output has a very high probability of being either +1 or –1. This bipolar probability distribution makes the Inverse Fisher Transform ideal for generating an indicator that provides clear buy and sell signals.

The transfer response of the Inverse Fisher Transform is shown in Figure 1. If
the input falls between –0.5 and +0.5, the output is nearly the same as the input.
For larger absolute values (say, larger than 2), the output is compressed to be no
larger than unity. The result of using the Inverse Fisher Transform is that the
output has a very high probability of being either +1 or –1. This bipolar
probability distribution makes the Inverse Fisher Transform ideal for generating
an indicator that provides clear buy and sell signals.
Big Snapper Alerts R2.0 by JustUncleLThis is a diversified Binary Option or Scalping Alert indicator originally designed for lower Time Frame Trend or Swing trading. Although you will find it a useful tool for higher time frames as well.
The Alerts are generated by the changing direction of the ColouredMA (HullMA by default), you then have the choice of selecting the Directional filtering on these signals or a Bollinger swing reversal filter.
The filters include:
Type 1 - The three MAs (EMAs 21,55,89 by default) in various combinations or by themselves. When only one directional MA selected then direction filter is given by ColouredMA above(up)/below(down) selected MA. If more than one MA selected the direction is given by MAs being in correct order for trend direction.
Type 2 - The SuperTrend direction is used to filter ColouredMA signals.
Type 3 - Bollinger Band Outside In is used to filter ColouredMA for swing reversals.
Type 4 - No directional filtering, all signals from the ColouredMA are shown.
Notes:
Each Type can be combined with another type to form more complex filtration.
Alerts can also be disabled completely if you just want one indicator with one colouredMA and/or 3xMAs and/or Bollinger Bands and/or SuperTrend painted on the chart.
Warning:
Be aware that combining Bollinger OutsideIn swing filter and a directional filter can be counter productive as they are opposites. So careful consideration is needed when combining Bollinger OutsideIn with any of the directional filters.
Hints:
For Binary Options try ColouredMA = HullMA(13) or HullMA(8) with Type 2 or 3 Filter.
When using Trend filters SuperTrend and/or 3xMA Trend, you will find if price reverses and breaks back through the Big Fat Signal line, then this can be a good reversal trade.
Some explanation about the what Hull Moving average and ideas of how the generated in Big Snapper can be used:

Inspiration from @vdubus
Big Snapper's Bollinger OutsideIn Swing filter in Action:
2-step Moving Average by HAH Financial- longer SMAs tend to sit too far from daily action
- shorter SMAs are too jittery
- the idea here is to create a smooth line, that is sits much closer to the daily price ranges
- this is achieved by mixing 2 MAs, a longer one and a shorter one
- the long one gives smoothness
- while averaging it with a shorter one, brings it (much in some cases) closer to the daily range
Price Action Doji Harami v0.2 by JustUncleLThis is an updated and final version of this indicator. This version distinguishes between the true Harami and the other Doji candlestick patterns as used with the Heikin Ashi candle charts. These candle patterns indicate a potential trend reversal or pullback.
The patterns identified are:
- Bearish Harami (Red Highlight above Bar):
One to three (default 3) large body Bull (green) candles followed by a small (red)
or no body candle (less than 0.5pip) with wicks top and bottom that are at least 60% of candle.
- Bullish Harami (Green Highlight below Bar):
One to three (default 3) large body Bear (red) candles followed by a small (green)
or no body candle (less than 0.5pip) with wicks top and bottom that are at least 60% of candle.
- Bearish Doji (Fuchsia Highlight above Bar):
One to three (default 3) large body Bull (green) candles followed by a small (green)
with wicks top and bottom that are at least 60% of candle.
- Bullish Doji (Aqua Highlight below Bar):
One to three (default 3) large body Bear (red) candles followed by a small (red)
with wicks top and bottom that are at least 60% of candle.
You can optionally specify how large the candles prior to Harami/Doji are in pips, default is 0 pip.
If you set this to zero then it will have no candle size consideration. You can also specify how many look back candles (1-3) are used in Harami/Doji calculations (default 3).
Included option to perform Calculations purely on Heikin Ashi candles, this helps when you want to see the HA Doji/Harami bars with the normal candle stick chart.
Also can optionally set an alert condition for when Harami/Doji found, this also displays a circle on the bottom of the screen when alert is triggered.
extended session - Regular Opening-Range- JayyOpening Range and some other scripts updated to plot correctly (see comments below.) There are three variations of the fibonacci expansion beyond the opening range and retracements within the opening range of the US Market session - I have not put in the script for the other markets yet.
The three scripts have different uses and strengths:
The extended session script (with the script here below) will plot the opening range whether you are using the extended session or the regular session. (that is to say whether "ext" in the lower right hand corner is highlighted or not.). While in the extended session the opening range has some plotting issues with periods like 13 minutes or any period that is not divisible into 330 mins with a round number outcome (eg 330/60 =5.5. Therefore an hour long opening range has problems in the extended session.
The pre session script is only for the premarket. You can select any opening range period you like. I have set the opening range to be the full premarket session. If you select a different session you will have to unselect "pre open to 9:30 EST for Opening Range?" in the format section. The script defaults to 15 minutes in the "period Of Pre Opening Range?". To go back to the 4 am to 9:30 pre opening range select "pre open to 9:30 EST for Opening Range?" there is no automatic 330 minute selection.
The past days offset script only works in 5 min or 15 minute period. It will show the opening range from up to 20 days past over the current days price action. Use this for the regular session only. 0 shows the current day's opening range. Use the positive integers for number of days back ie 1, 2, 3 etc not -1, -2, -3 etc. The script is preprogrammed to use the current day (0).
Scripts updated to plot correctly: One thing they all have in common is a way of they deal with a somewhat random problem that shifts the plots 4 hours in one direction or the other ie the plot started at 9:30 EST or 1:30PM EST. This issue started to occur approximately June 22, 2015 and impacts any script that tried to use "session" times to manage a plot in my scripts. The issue now seems to have been resolved during this past week.
Just in case the problem reoccurs I have added a "Switch session plot?" to each script. If the plot looks funny check or uncheck the "Switch session plot?" and see the difference. Of course if a new issue crops up it will likely require a different fix.
I have updated all of the scripts shown on this chart. If you are using a script of mine that suffers from the compiler issue then you will find an update on this chart. You can get any and all of the scripts by clicking on the small sideways wishbone on the left middle of the chart. You will see a dialogue box. Then click "make it mine". This will import all of the scripts to your computer and you can play around with them all to decide what you want and what you don't want. This is the easiest way to get all of the scripts in one fell swoop. It is also the easiest way for me to make all of the scripts available. I do not have all of the plots visible since it is too messy and one of the scripts (pre OR) is only for the regular session. To view the scripts click on the blue eye to the right of the script title to show it on this script. If you can only use the regular session. The scripts will all (with the exception of the pre OR) work fine.
If for any reason this script seems flakey refresh the page r try a slightly different period. I have noticed that sometimes randomly the script loves to return to the 5 min OR. This is a very new issue transient issue. As always if you see an issue please let me know.
Cheers Jayy
Camarilla - formula updated for 5 and 6 levelsSince levels 5 and 6 formulas are kind of surrounded in mystery it's difficult to find a widely agreed one.
While for the level 5 there is some consensus the 6th one is hard to find. I updated level 5 with the most common use of lvl 5 formula , some links like this one or from books (Secrets of a Pivot Boss) . Level 6 is a tough one, so please use this one experimentally . If you have other formulas for level 6, let me know. The 5 and 6 lvls are useful in volatile days.

Équilibre du Sentiment – Multi-Périodes (v6)
English
A unique and advanced sentiment indicator based on the harmonic mean of highs and lows over nested rolling windows.
How it works:
The neutral sentiment point is reached when positive sentiment equals negative sentiment, which corresponds to the situation where the percentage between the price and the minimum is equal to the percentage between the maximum and the price.
For each chosen period N, the script calculates N different "neutral feeling" values:
- One using the last 1 bar
- One using the last 2 bars
- …
- One using the last N bars
It then extracts the exact median of these N values using a sorted insertion method (no approximation).
This produces an extremely smooth, non-repainting equilibrium line that represents the true "central sentiment" of the market over the selected lookback.
Features:
- Up to 3 independent periods (365, 52, 26 by default – fully customizable)
- Optional background coloring (green/red) when price is above/below the main curve
- Clean labels on the last bar showing the current value for each active period
- Zero repainting – fully compatible with strategies and alerts
- Highly responsive even with very long periods (up to 3500 bars)
Great for:
- Identifying long-term fair value / equilibrium zones
- Building mean-reversion or breakout systems
Pure Pine Script® v6 – no external libraries, no security calls, no repainting-free.
MTF RSI Stacked + AI + Gradient MTF RSI Stacked + AI + Gradient
Quick-start guide & best-practice rules
What the indicator does
Multi-Time-Frame RSI in one pane
• 10 time-frames (1 m → 1 M) are stacked 100 points apart (0, 100, 200 … 900).
• Each RSI is plotted with a smooth red-yellow-green gradient:
– Red = RSI below 30 (oversold)
– Yellow = RSI near 50
– Green = RSI above 70 (overbought)
• Grey 30-70 bands are drawn for every TF so you can see extremities at a glance.
Built-in AI (KNN) signal
• On every close of the chosen AI-time-frame the script:
– Takes the last 14-period RSI + normalised ATR as “features”
– Compares them to the last N bars (default 1 000)
– Votes of the k = 5 closest neighbours → BUY / SELL / NEUTRAL
• Confidence % is shown in the badge (top-right).
• A thick vertical line (green/red) is printed once when the signal flips.
How to read it
• Gradient colour tells you instantly which TFs are overbought/obove sold.
• When all or most gradients are green → broad momentum up; look for shorts only on lower-TF pullbacks.
• When most are red → broad momentum down; favour longs only on lower-TF bounces.
• Use the AI signal as a confluence filter, not a stand-alone entry:
– If AI = BUY and 3+ higher-TF RSIs just crossed > 50 → consider long.
– If AI = SELL and 3+ higher-TF RSIs just crossed < 50 → consider short.
• Divergences: price makes a higher high but 1 h/4 h RSI (gradient) makes a lower high → possible reversal.
Settings you can tweak
AI timeframe – leave empty = same as chart, or pick a higher TF (e.g. “15” or “60”) to slow the signal down.
Training bars – 500-2 000 is the sweet spot; bigger = slower but more stable.
K neighbours – 3-7; lower = more signals, higher = smoother.
RSI length – 14 is standard; 9 gives earlier turns, 21 gives fewer false swings.
Practical trading workflow
Open the symbol on your execution TF (e.g. 5 m).
Set AI timeframe to 3-5× execution TF (e.g. 15 m or 30 m) so the signal survives market noise.
Wait for AI signal to align with gradient extremes on at least one higher TF.
Enter on the first gradient reversal inside the 30-70 band on the execution TF.
Place stop beyond the swing that caused the gradient flip; target next opposing 70/30 level on the same TF or trail with structure.
Colour cheat-sheet
Bright green → RSI ≥ 70 (overbought)
Bright red → RSI ≤ 30 (oversold)
Muted colours → RSI near 50 (neutral, momentum pause)
That’s it—one pane, ten time-frames, colour-coded extremes and an AI confluence layer.
Keep the chart clean, use price action for precise entries, and let the gradient tell you when the wind is at your back.
Grok/Claude Turtle Soup Alert SystemReplaces previous Turtle Soup Strategy/Indicator as Tradingview will not let me update it.
# 🥣 Turtle Soup Strategy (Enhanced)
## A Mean-Reversion Strategy Based on Failed Breakouts
---
## Historical Origins
### The Original Turtle Traders (1983-1988)
The Turtle Trading system is one of the most famous experiments in trading history. In 1983, legendary commodities trader **Richard Dennis** made a bet with his partner **William Eckhardt** about whether great traders were born or made. Dennis believed trading could be taught; Eckhardt believed it was innate.
To settle the debate, Dennis recruited 23 ordinary people through newspaper ads—including a professional blackjack player, a fantasy game designer, and an accountant—and taught them his trading system in just two weeks. He called them "Turtles" after turtle farms he had visited in Singapore, saying *"We are going to grow traders just like they grow turtles in Singapore."*
The results were extraordinary. Over the next five years, the Turtles reportedly earned over **$175 million in profits**. The experiment proved Dennis right: trading could indeed be taught.
#### The Original Turtle Rules:
- **Entry:** Buy when price breaks above the 20-day high (System 1) or 55-day high (System 2)
- **Exit:** Sell when price breaks below the 10-day low (System 1) or 20-day low (System 2)
- **Stop Loss:** 2x ATR (Average True Range) from entry
- **Position Sizing:** Based on volatility (ATR)
- **Philosophy:** Pure trend-following—catch big moves by riding breakouts
The Turtle system was a **trend-following** strategy that assumed breakouts would lead to sustained trends. It worked brilliantly in trending markets but suffered during choppy, range-bound conditions.
---
### The Turtle Soup Strategy (1990s)
In the 1990s, renowned trader **Linda Bradford Raschke** (along with Larry Connors) observed something interesting: many of the breakouts that the Turtle system traded actually *failed*. Price would spike above the 20-day high, trigger Turtle buy orders, then immediately reverse—trapping the breakout traders.
Raschke realized these failed breakouts were predictable and tradeable. She developed the **Turtle Soup** strategy, which does the *exact opposite* of the original Turtle system:
> *"Instead of buying the breakout, we wait for it to fail—then fade it."*
The name "Turtle Soup" is a clever play on words: the strategy essentially "eats" the Turtles by trading against them when their breakouts fail.
#### Original Turtle Soup Rules:
- **Setup:** Price makes a new 20-day high (or low)
- **Qualifier:** The previous 20-day high must be at least 3-4 days old (not a fresh breakout)
- **Entry Trigger:** Price reverses back inside the channel (failed breakout)
- **Entry:** Go SHORT (against the failed breakout above), or LONG (against the failed breakdown below)
- **Philosophy:** Mean-reversion—fade false breakouts and profit from trapped traders
#### Turtle Soup Plus One Variant:
Raschke also developed a more conservative variant called "Turtle Soup Plus One" which waits for the *next bar* after the breakout to confirm the failure before entering. This reduces false signals but may miss some opportunities.
---
## Our Enhanced Turtle Soup Strategy
We have taken the classic Turtle Soup concept and enhanced it with modern technical indicators and filters to improve signal quality and adapt to today's markets.
### Core Logic Preserved
The fundamental strategy remains true to Raschke's original concept:
| Turtle (Original) | Turtle Soup (Our Strategy) |
|-------------------|---------------------------|
| BUY breakout above 20-day high | SHORT when that breakout FAILS |
| SELL breakout below 20-day low | LONG when that breakdown FAILS |
| Trend-following | Mean-reversion |
| "The trend is your friend" | "Failed breakouts trap traders" |
---
### Enhancements & Improvements
#### 1. RSI Exhaustion Filter
**Addition:** RSI must confirm exhaustion before entry
- **For SHORT entries:** RSI > 60 (buyers exhausted)
- **For LONG entries:** RSI < 40 (sellers exhausted)
**Why:** The original Turtle Soup had no momentum filter. Adding RSI ensures we only fade breakouts when the market is showing signs of exhaustion, significantly reducing false signals. This enhancement was inspired by later traders who found RSI extremes (originally 90/10, softened to 60/40) dramatically improved win rates.
#### 2. ADX Trending Filter
**Addition:** ADX must be > 20 for trades to execute
**Why:** While the original Turtle Soup was designed for ranging markets, we found that requiring *some* trend strength (ADX > 20) actually improves results. This ensures we're trading in markets with enough directional movement to create meaningful failed breakouts, rather than random noise in dead markets.
#### 3. Heikin Ashi Smoothing
**Addition:** Optional Heikin Ashi calculations for breakout detection
**Why:** Heikin Ashi candles smooth out price noise and make trend reversals more visible. When enabled, the strategy uses HA values to detect breakouts and failures, reducing whipsaws from erratic price spikes.
#### 4. Dynamic Donchian Channels with Regime Detection
**Addition:** Color-coded channels based on market regime
- 🟢 **Green:** Bullish regime (uptrend + DI+ > DI- + OBV bullish)
- 🔴 **Red:** Bearish regime (downtrend + DI- > DI+ + OBV bearish)
- 🟡 **Yellow:** Neutral regime
**Why:** Visual regime detection helps traders understand the broader market context. The original Turtle Soup had no regime awareness—our enhancement lets traders see at a glance whether conditions favor the strategy.
#### 5. Volume Spike Detection (Optional)
**Addition:** Optional filter requiring volume surge on the breakout bar
**Why:** Failed breakouts are more significant when they occur on high volume. A volume spike on the breakout bar (default 1.2x average) indicates more traders got trapped, creating stronger reversal potential.
#### 6. ATR-Based Stops and Targets
**Addition:** Configurable ATR-based stop losses and profit targets
- **Stop Loss:** 1.5x ATR (default)
- **Profit Target:** 2.0x ATR (default)
**Why:** The original Turtle Soup used fixed stop placement. ATR-based stops adapt to current volatility, providing tighter stops in calm markets and wider stops in volatile conditions.
#### 7. Signal Cooldown
**Addition:** Minimum bars between trades (default 5)
**Why:** Prevents overtrading during choppy conditions where multiple failed breakouts might occur in quick succession.
#### 8. Real-Time Info Panel
**Addition:** Comprehensive dashboard showing:
- Current regime (Bullish/Bearish/Neutral)
- RSI value and zone
- ADX value and trending status
- Breakout status
- Bars since last high/low
- Current setup status
- Position status
**Why:** Gives traders instant visibility into all strategy conditions without needing to check multiple indicators.

## Entry Rules Summary
### SHORT Entry (Fading Failed Breakout Above)
1. ✅ Price breaks ABOVE the 20-period Donchian high
2. ✅ Previous 20-period high was at least 1 bar ago
3. ✅ Price closes back BELOW the Donchian high (failed breakout)
4. ✅ RSI > 60 (exhausted buyers)
5. ✅ ADX > 20 (trending market)
6. ✅ Cooldown period met
→ **Enter SHORT**, betting the breakout will fail
### LONG Entry (Fading Failed Breakdown Below)
1. ✅ Price breaks BELOW the 20-period Donchian low
2. ✅ Previous 20-period low was at least 1 bar ago
3. ✅ Price closes back ABOVE the Donchian low (failed breakdown)
4. ✅ RSI < 40 (exhausted sellers)
5. ✅ ADX > 20 (trending market)
6. ✅ Cooldown period met
→ **Enter LONG**, betting the breakdown will fail
---
## Exit Rules
1. **ATR Stop Loss:** Position closed if price moves 1.5x ATR against entry
2. **ATR Profit Target:** Position closed if price moves 2.0x ATR in favor
3. **Channel Exit:** Position closed if price breaks the exit channel in the opposite direction
4. **Mid-Channel Exit:** Position closed if price returns to channel midpoint
---
## Best Market Conditions
The Turtle Soup strategy performs best when:
- ✅ Markets are prone to false breakouts
- ✅ Volatility is moderate (not too low, not extreme)
- ✅ Price is oscillating within a broader range
- ✅ There are clear support/resistance levels
The strategy may struggle when:
- ❌ Strong trends persist (breakouts follow through)
- ❌ Volatility is extremely low (no meaningful breakouts)
- ❌ Markets are in news-driven directional moves

## Philosophy
> *"The Turtle system made millions by following breakouts. The Turtle Soup strategy makes money when those breakouts fail. In trading, there's always someone on the other side of the trade—this strategy profits by being the smart money that fades the trapped breakout traders."*
The beauty of the Turtle Soup strategy is its elegant simplicity: it exploits a known, repeatable pattern (failed breakouts) while using modern filters (RSI, ADX) to improve timing and reduce false signals.

MSS + Multi FVG TrackerMSS + Multi FVG Tracker
Description
An advanced institutional trading tool that combines Market Structure Shift (MSS) detection with multi-level Fair Value Gap (FVG) tracking. This indicator identifies breakouts of previous swing highs/lows on higher timeframes, then systematically tracks and validates multiple FVGs within each trend direction, generating precise entry signals when price respects the gap structure.
How It Works
Higher Timeframe Trend Detection
The indicator analyzes a higher timeframe (default 15-minute) to determine the overall bias, displaying background colors that show bullish or bearish directionality. This ensures you only trade with institutional trend direction.
Market Structure Shift (MSS/BOS)
When price closes above a previous swing high (in uptrends) or below a previous swing low (in downtrends), a BOS (Break of Structure) is marked with a line and label. This signals that the institutional structure has shifted and a new trend impulse is beginning.
Multi-Level FVG Tracking
Once an MSS occurs:
The indicator begins scanning for Fair Value Gaps (gaps between candles where no trading occurred)
Bullish FVGs: Gaps above the closing price of a bearish candle (low > high )
Bearish FVGs: Gaps below the closing price of a bullish candle (high < low )
Multiple FVGs are tracked simultaneously (up to 5 configurable) across the same impulse
Intelligent FVG Validation
Each FVG is continuously monitored:
Invalidated: If price closes through the gap (below a bullish FVG or above a bearish FVG), it's automatically deleted
Touched: If price enters the gap zone, it's marked as "touched"
Signal Generated: When a touched FVG shows strong directional confirmation (bullish candle closing above the FVG top, or bearish candle closing below the FVG bottom), a LONG or SHORT signal is triggered
Key Features
HTF Trend Confirmation: Only trades aligned with higher timeframe bias (eliminates counter-trend noise)
Multi-FVG Architecture: Tracks up to 5 gaps per trend impulse simultaneously
Automatic Gap Invalidation: Removes FVGs that break below/above, keeping only valid levels
Smart Signal Generation: Entry signals require both FVG respect + directional confirmation
Color-Coded Structure: Bullish signals in green, bearish in red with instant visual clarity
Background Trend Visualization: Subtle background shading shows HTF bias at all times
Customizable Parameters: Adjust swing period, HTF timeframe, and max FVGs to track
Ideal For
ICT Smart Money traders using FVG + MSS methodologies
Institutional order flow analysts trading market structure
Multi-timeframe traders looking for confluence-based entries
Scalpers to swing traders on 5-minute to 1-hour charts
Anyone seeking high-probability setups with clear invalidation rules
Trading Applications
Scalp FVG reversals: Enter when price respects a touched FVG with confirmation
Trade impulses with structure: Follow MSS with FVG confluence for institutional-grade entries
Identify pullback opportunities: Track multiple FVGs during retracements for re-entry zones
Confirm breakout validity: Only take breaks when aligned with HTF trend + FVG structure
Avoid false breakouts: Invalidated FVGs signal that the move is losing structure
How to Use
Wait for the MSS: Background color shift + BOS line confirms market structure break
Monitor FVG Creation: Boxes appear as gaps form within the new impulse
Watch for Invalidation: Red boxes disappear if price breaks the gap—signal invalid
Wait for Touch + Confirmation: FVG must be touched AND show strong directional candle
Take the Signal: Triangle entry markers appear with audio/visual alerts
Clear Risk Management: Use the invalidated FVG level as your stop loss
Signal Strength Indicators
Strongest Setup: Multiple FVGs created + one respects while others invalidate (shows structure)
Medium Setup: Single FVG touched and confirmed
Weaker Setup: Quick touch with weak confirmation candle (wait for better structure)
Customization Options
HTF Timeframe: Change from 15-min to 5, 30, 60 min or higher for different trading styles
Swing Period: Adjust from 10 bars for faster detection to 20+ for structural shifts
Max FVGs: Track 1-5 simultaneous gaps (lower = cleaner, higher = more opportunities)
Colors: Customize bullish/bearish colors to match your chart theme
Default Settings Optimized For
NASDAQ futures and liquid forex pairs
5-minute to 1-hour timeframe trading
Smart Money / ICT methodology
High-probability impulse + gap trading
Pro Tips
The cleaner your chart (fewer invalidated FVGs), the stronger the structural move
Multiple valid FVGs in one impulse suggest institutional accumulation/distribution
HTF background color changes are early warnings of trend structure shift
Best setups occur when 2-3 FVGs exist and one shows clear confirmation
