BE - Volume Scalping ProDear Traders,
Here with presenting the new Indicator (Strategy) for scalping which is primarily built based on the the Volume Analysis.
Idea behind this Indicator: I am sure every trader would agree that Volume is one of the Leading indicator along with Price, and hence thought to use the same for scalping the trades. There is a direct co-relation between the price and volume and thereby used this as a base for arriving at strength of the volume pumped in. Indicator is working on the Logic of "What is the ROC in price for the volume dumped in and does ROC quantify the same which is happened in the recent past of x candles." In order to be successful in scalping trade, Accuracy, Risk to reward and Money Management is very much crucial and hence thought so much on this to make it happen.
Note: Accuracy here being profitable in the trade and not hitting the bulls eye all the time.
What this indicator is providing:
Based on the volume, ROC & Candle Thresholds and using the inputs provided for RISK and Money Management options, Indicator continuously scans for trading opportunities and provides alerts for possible trades.
Alerts & Notifications:
There are basically 3 types of Alerts provided one with General Notification and Other with Dhan HQ notifications to support Algo Trades and AlgoJi for supporting Algo trades too.
Self Declaration:
I have been testing the performance in 30 seconds and 1 min chart and I haven't faced any issues yet. I strongly recommend users to use the same in timeframe less than 10 Min only.
Enjoy!

Supertrend, MA 44|6, EMA FIBS 13|21|34I have this indicator based on my strategy. This indicator is based on existing functions available in the system. I haven't added anything new. This indicator uses Supertrend, MA44|6, EMA fibs 13|21|34 combining to find a profitable trade.
- Supertrend : Indicator uses supertrend strategy with default ATR period of 10 and Factor value 3. These values can be customized based on your preferences. Uptrend is denoted by green color and downtrend by red color. You can change the colors based on your preferences.
- MA 44|6: Indicator plots moving averages of 44 and 6. These values can be customized based on your preferences. Although it is highly recommended to keep 44 as is. Value 6 can be adjusted based on your preference. Default color for uptrend is green and for downtrend is red. You can change the colors based on your preferences.
- FIBS EMA 13|21|34: Indicator plots EMA of fibbonacci numbers 13, 21,34 to identify consolidation and breakout. The periods can be adjusted but it is highly recommended not to do so. Default colors for 13,21 and 34 is Aqua, Blue and Navy respectively. You can change the colors based on your preferences.
When to take trade?
To take a trade all conditions needs to be fulfilled.
Supertrend : Always take a trade in the direction of Supertrend. It is always advisable to take trade if the trend is changing or price is taking support of resistance.
MA 44|6: Moving average 44 indicates average price of 44 last candles and 6 for last 6 candles. Price crossing MA 44 indicates change in trend. It is advisable to take trade at crossing the line above or below. If many candles closing near MA 44 then it indicates consolidation. The more far the candle closes from MA44 the better. MA 6 is used to identify when to enter or exit the trade. If candle closes away from MA 6 then you can wait for candle to start near the MA 6 line. If candle closes above/below MA 6 you can exit your trade.
Fibonacci 13|21|34: When all lines are closed it indicates consolidation. When price breakouts to either direction you can take a trade in that direction with following conditions.
Bullish Trade:
When to enter?
If candle closed above MA 44, Supertrend is uptrend and EMA Fibs are moving away and are above MA 44. The price is near to MA 6 line then you can enter into bullish trade. If price is away from MA 6 then you should wait until the price/line comes near to avoid loss.
When to exit?
Price moving in opposite direction:
You should set a stop loss when you enter the trade. The stop loss can be set below the low of the previous candle or any other strategy you have. But it is really important to set the stop loss. If price moves in opposite direction then your stop loss will hit and you will be out of the trade.
Price moving in same direction:
Once you enter the trade you can exit based on two conditions whichever suits you.
1. Exit the trade if candle closes below MA6. The drawback is you may exit too early. You can also adjust the period based on your preferences.
2. Exit the trade if candle closed below low of previous candle. The drawback is you may book less profit but you can capture the movement very well.
Bearish Trade:
When to enter?
If candle closed below MA 44, Supertrend is downtrend and EMA Fibs are moving away and are below MA 44. The price is near to MA 6 line then you can enter into bearish trade. If price is away from MA 6 then you should wait until the price/line comes near to avoid loss.
When to exit?
Price moving in opposite direction:
You should set a stop loss when you enter the trade. The stop loss can be set below the low of the previous candle or any other strategy you have. But it is really important to set the stop loss. If price moves in opposite direction then your stop loss will hit and you will be out of the trade.
Price moving in same direction:
Once you enter the trade you can exit based on two conditions whichever suits you.
1. Exit the trade if candle closes below MA6. The drawback is you may exit too early. You can also adjust the period based on your preferences.
2. Exit the trade if candle closed below low of previous candle. The drawback is you may book less profit but you can capture the movement very well.
When not to take trade?
1. If MA 44 is completely horizontal and EMA Fibs are very close to each other. This indicates that the market is consolidated and if you enter the trade you may hit stop loss very often.
Note: Please note that I am not expert and I don't take any responsibility of your profits or losses. I have created this indicator based on my knowledge and it is for study purpose. Use of this indicator is totally your responsibility. Use all your knowledge and expertise and don't totally depend on the indicator. Don't forget to use stop loss and do money management.
Happy Trading!
Dynamically Adjusting EMA Crossing
The Exponential Moving Average is the most commonly used indicator in every market. but no one can predict which pair of exponential moving average crossing will work best together. Every instrument require different EMAs crossing. It can be 2 EMA crossings or 3 EMA crossings.
Dynamically Adjusting EMA crossing tries to solve this issue. Algorithm finds the optimal EMA crossing setting for every instrument across all timeframes based on the EMA lengths provided in the settings. It evaluates the most profitable crossing combination for each instrument. The logic backtests the different combinations of EMA crossing based on the EMA lengths provided in the indicator's settings.
There are 3 EMA options in the settings Fact, Slow and Long. Indicator's Settings have the option to choose 2 EMA crossings or 3 EMA crossings.
Default Settings
Fast : 5 to 10
Slow : 13 to 19
Long : 20 to 60
Please do keep in mind that the performance of the indicator reduces as we increase the default settings range.

SMOOTHED RSI SWITCHThis more complex take on the traditional RSI provides clearer entry and exit points and looks beyond just overbought/oversold levels, altogether creating a more robust trading strategy.
The RSI is smoothed by the Hull MA with adjustable periods.
Although a variety of strategies can be developed using this indicator. I intended its most profitable use be as follows:
Entries are to be taken when the oscillator flips from red to clear and/or directly from red to green. Sell/short positions are to be take when the oscillator flips from green to clear and/or directly from green to red.
Benjamin Graham Net-Net AnalyserA simple indicator that displayers as a table, telling you whether or not the stock you have selected has a current price that is less than 67% of the company's net current asset value per share (NCAVPS) at its last reporting period (FQ, FY, TTM).
Benjamin Graham uses this 67% rule to decide whether or not a stock is significantly undervalued, and studies have shown that investing in companies whose share prices are less than 67% of their NCAVPS can be highly profitable, and will beat markets in the long run.
Feel free to use as you please or repurpose the code for your own projects.
TradingWolf Premium PatternsThe TradingWolf Premium is a one of a kind indicator which can identify charting patterns unlike any others. Standard Chart patterns take 10+ candles to recognise where as ares are almost instant without repainting!
Within this one indicator you will have access to Break Out Levels , Dynamic Support and resistance, Bull Flag, Bear Flag, Rising Wedge, Falling Wedge, Inverse Head & Shoulders, Head & Shoulders, Double Top, Double Bottom, Trend Lines, Ascending Triangle, Descending Triangle, Parallel Channel & Linear Regression Channels.
Below each indicator is explained along with its enhancements to help you understand it better.
This script comes with the 'TradingWolf Premium' to get access, read the Author’s Instructions below.
There are extensive explanations on how to use this indicator in our documentation on the website but we will give a simple overview here.
Break Out Levels
Break out levels are great for breakout traders, this indicator is scanning for strong points of support & resistance, it does this by finding pivot points where price has had a noticeable pull back. From there it will monitor that level and display a signal soon as price breaks it.
Another use case for this indicator is helping identify the market structure direction. If we are breaking up and getting Green triangles, this suggests we are in a bullish up-trending structure and vice versa for red bearish signals.
Support & Resistance
There are lots of ways of deciding how to mark up support and resistance, we like to use ATR values related to daily price action. Marking levels up on lower timeframes tend not to give such good levels to play whereas calculating values from the Higher time frames gives us levels we know are more like to be respected.
Although they are calculated from the daily timeframe you will notice these levels will adjust to the daily price action to make sure they are keeping up to date on levels you need to keep an eye on.
Flags
Flags show signs of continuation, they are confirmed when price breaks the upper resistance for bull flags and lower support for bear flags. They are commonly used in trading but with this indicator, it will help you spot ones you may normally miss. Everyone judges flags differently so we have given you the ability to decide how strict you would like the flags to be with the correlation setting, if you set it to 100% the top and bottom lines of the flag must be going at the exact same angle to count as a valid flag.
Wedges
A wedge pattern is typically a reversal pattern, you would normally use these in correlation with volume. For a confirmed wedge you want declining volume as the price reaches the wedge end. You can either try entering at the top/bottom of the wedge pattern or wait until price breaks into the opposite trending direction.
Head & Shoulders
These are reversal patterns, for a confirmed Head and shoulder pattern you want to pair it with declining volume or momentum
You will notice you have a HF option, when enabled this will scan multiple different lengths of pivots to try spot more patterns which the regular settings may miss. If you think you are getting enough you may want to disable this.
Triangles
Triangles help us identify areas where price starts consolidating in a narrow range, once we reach roughly ¾ of the way through the triangle, we will see a break out in either direction, normally confirmation just requires 1 close out of the triangle along with increased volume. If you miss the initial move you may be able to catch a retest if you are lucky!
Double Tops & Bottoms
These patterns are considered reversal patterns. They are confirmed on the break of the neck line with increased volume.
Trend Lines
These are as simple as the name suggests, the lines are calculated slightly differently to other support and resistance points but they will work the same spotting potential areas where price will bounce or reject.
Channels
Similar to Trend lines but these are looking for trend lines at the same angle forming channels where price tends to range between. You have several options to edit these in the settings including the correlation % of the channel lines, how many candles are allowed outside of the channel (fake outs), sensitivity/ frequency the channels appear and whether you use the Wicks or candle Closes to determine where to calculate the channels from.
Linear Regression Channels
Linear regression is the analysis of two separate variables to define a single relationship and is a useful measure from a technical and quantitative point of view.
As seen in the image above, these can be used to help determine key levels in the chart where price is likely to react. In the settings you will be able to adjust its sensitivity to the levels you like to trade.
Bollinger BandsThis strategy is inspired from Power of Stock aka Subhasish Panni.
Target is minimum 1:3 when you get this setup right.
Buy when:
1) Low is greater than upper band of BB and next candle breaks high of that candle, SL is Low of previous candle which is has low above upper band.
2) High is lower than lower band of BB and next candle breaks high of that candle, SL is low of previous candle which has high lower than lower band.
Sell when:
1) Low is greater than upper band of BB and next candle breaks low of that candle, SL is high of previous candle which is has low above upper band.
2) High is lower than lower band of BB and next candle breaks high of that candle, SL is high of previous candle which has high lower than lower band.
Disclaimer: this setup will cause many small stoploss hit, you have to accept that loss but you will be profitable because of R:R.
Adaptive Parabolic SAR (APSAR) - [MYN]We took the code that we wrote in Myth Busting Strategy #6 to make it more profitable, specifically the timeframe adaptive Parabolic SAR logic and published this as a separate indicator to make it easier for others to use and adopt.
There really is no magic to this. This indicator basically just evaluates the timeframe and derives a multiplier that is applied to the PSAR Max attribute.
Delta Volume Channels [LucF]█ OVERVIEW
This indicator displays on-chart visuals aimed at making the most of delta volume information. It can color bars and display two channels: one for delta volume, another calculated from the price levels of bars where delta volume divergences occur. Markers and alerts can also be configured using key conditions, and filtered in many different ways. The indicator caters to traders who prefer chart visuals over raw values. It will work on historical bars and in real time, using intrabar analysis to calculate delta volume in both conditions.
█ CONCEPTS
Delta Volume
The volume delta concept divides a bar's volume in "up" and "down" volumes. The delta is calculated by subtracting down volume from up volume. Many calculation techniques exist to isolate up and down volume within a bar. The simplest techniques use the polarity of interbar price changes to assign their volume to up or down slots, e.g., On Balance Volume or the Klinger Oscillator . Others such as Chaikin Money Flow use assumptions based on a bar's OHLC values. The most precise calculation method uses tick data and assigns the volume of each tick to the up or down slot depending on whether the transaction occurs at the bid or ask price. While this technique is ideal, it requires huge amounts of data on historical bars, which usually limits the historical depth of charts and the number of symbols for which tick data is available.
This indicator uses intrabar analysis to achieve a compromise between the simplest and most precise methods of calculating volume delta. In the context where historical tick data is not yet available on TradingView, intrabar analysis is the most precise technique to calculate volume delta on historical bars on our charts. TradingView's Volume Profile built-in indicators use it, as do the CVD - Cumulative Volume Delta Candles and CVD - Cumulative Volume Delta (Chart) indicators published from the TradingView account . My Volume Delta Columns Pro indicator also uses intrabar analysis. Other volume delta indicators such as my Realtime 5D Profile use realtime chart updates to achieve more precise volume delta calculations. Indicators of that type cannot be used on historical bars however; they only work in real time.
This is the logic I use to assign intrabar volume to up or down slots:
• If the intrabar's open and close values are different, their relative position is used.
• If the intrabar's open and close values are the same, the difference between the intrabar's close and the previous intrabar's close is used.
• As a last resort, when there is no movement during an intrabar and it closes at the same price as the previous intrabar, the last known polarity is used.
Once all intrabars making up a chart bar have been analyzed and the up or down property of each intrabar's volume determined, the up volumes are added and the down volumes subtracted. The resulting value is volume delta for that chart bar, which can be used as an estimate of the buying/selling pressure on an instrument.
Delta Volume Percent (DV%)
This value is the proportion that delta volume represents of the total intrabar volume in the chart bar. Note that on some symbols/timeframes, the total intrabar volume may differ from the chart's volume for a bar, but that will not affect our calculations since we use the total intrabar volume.
Delta Volume Channel
The DV channel is the space between two moving averages: the reference line and a DV%-weighted version of that reference. The reference line is a moving average of a type, source and length which you select. The DV%-weighted line uses the same settings, but it averages the DV%-weighted price source.
The weight applied to the source of the reference line is calculated from two values, which are multiplied: DV% and the relative size of the bar's volume in relation to previous bars. The effect of this is that DV% values on bars with higher total volume will carry greater weight than those with lesser volume.
The DV channel can be in one of four states, each having its corresponding color:
• Bull (teal): The DV%-weighted line is above the reference line.
• Strong bull (lime): The bull condition is fulfilled and the bar's close is above the reference line and both the reference and the DV%-weighted lines are rising.
• Bear (maroon): The DV%-weighted line is below the reference line.
• Strong bear (pink): The bear condition is fulfilled and the bar's close is below the reference line and both the reference and the DV%-weighted lines are falling.
Divergences
In the context of this indicator, a divergence is any bar where the slope of the reference line does not match that of the DV%-weighted line. No directional bias is assigned to divergences when they occur.
Divergence Channel
The divergence channel is the space between two levels (by default, the bar's low and high ) saved when divergences occur. When price has breached a channel and a new divergence occurs, a new channel is created. Until that new channel is breached, bars where additional divergences occur will expand the channel's levels if the bar's price points are outside the channel.
Prices breaches of the divergence channel will change its state. Divergence channels can be in one of five different states:
• Bull (teal): Price has breached the channel to the upside.
• Strong bull (lime): The bull condition is fulfilled and the DV channel is in the strong bull state.
• Bear (maroon): Price has breached the channel to the downside.
• Strong bear (pink): The bear condition is fulfilled and the DV channel is in the strong bear state.
• Neutral (gray): The channel has not been breached.
█ HOW TO USE THE INDICATOR
Load the indicator on an active chart (see here if you don't know how).
The default configuration displays:
• The DV channel, without the reference or DV%-weighted lines.
• The Divergence channel, without its level lines.
• Bar colors using the state of the DV channel.
The default settings use an Arnaud-Legoux moving average on the close and a length of 20 bars. The DV%-weighted version of it uses a combination of DV% and relative volume to calculate the ultimate weight applied to the reference. The DV%-weighted line is capped to 5 standard deviations of the reference. The lower timeframe used to access intrabars automatically adjusts to the chart's timeframe and achieves optimal balance between the number of intrabars inspected in each chart bar, and the number of chart bars covered by the script's calculations.
The Divergence channel's levels are determined using the high and low of the bars where divergences occur. Breaches of the channel require a bar's low to move above the top of the channel, and the bar's high to move below the channel's bottom.
No markers appear on the chart; if you want to create alerts from this script, you will need first to define the conditions that will trigger the markers, then create the alert, which will trigger on those same conditions.
To learn more about how to use this indicator, you must understand the concepts it uses and the information it displays, which requires reading this description. There are no videos to explain it.
█ FEATURES
The script's inputs are divided in four sections: "DV channel", "Divergence channel", "Other Visuals" and "Marker/Alert Conditions". The first setting is the selection method used to determine the intrabar precision, i.e., how many lower timeframe bars (intrabars) are examined in each chart bar. The more intrabars you analyze, the more precise the calculation of DV% results will be, but the less chart coverage can be covered by the script's calculations.
DV Channel
Here, you control the visibility and colors of the reference line, its weighted version, and the DV channel between them.
You also specify what type of moving average you want to use as a reference line, its source and length. This acts as the DV channel's baseline. The DV%-weighted line is also a moving average of the same type and length as the reference line, except that it will be calculated from the DV%-weighted source used in the reference line. By default, the DV%-weighted line is capped to five standard deviations of the reference line. You can change that value here. This section is also where you can disable the relative volume component of the weight.
Divergence Channel
This is where you control the appearance of the divergence channel and the key price values used in determining the channel's levels and breaching conditions. These choices have an impact on the behavior of the channel. More generous level prices like the default low and high selection will produce more conservative channels, as will the default choice for breach prices.
In this section, you can also enable a mode where an attempt is made to estimate the channel's bias before price breaches the channel. When it is enabled, successive increases/decreases of the channel's top and bottom levels are counted as new divergences occur. When one count is greater than the other, a bull/bear bias is inferred from it.
Other Visuals
You specify here:
• The method used to color chart bars, if you choose to do so.
• The display of a mark appearing above or below bars when a divergence occurs.
• If you want raw values to appear in tooltips when you hover above chart bars. The default setting does not display them, which makes the script faster.
• If you want to display an information box which by default appears in the lower left of the chart.
It shows which lower timeframe is used for intrabars, and the average number of intrabars per chart bar.
Marker/Alert Conditions
Here, you specify the conditions that will trigger up or down markers. The trigger conditions can include a combination of state transitions of the DV and the divergence channels. The triggering conditions can be filtered using a variety of conditions.
Configuring the marker conditions is necessary before creating an alert from this script, as the alert will use the marker conditions to trigger.
Markers only appear on bar closes, so they will not repaint. Keep in mind, when looking at markers on historical bars, that they are positioned on the bar when it closes — NOT when it opens.
Raw values
The raw values calculated by this script can be inspected using a tooltip and the Data Window. The tooltip is visible when you hover over the top of chart bars. It will display on the last 500 bars of the chart, and shows the values of DV, DV%, the combined weight, and the intermediary values used to calculate them.
█ INTERPRETATION
The aim of the DV channel is to provide a visual representation of the buying/selling pressure calculated using delta volume. The simplest characteristic of the channel is its bull/bear state. One can then distinguish between its bull and strong bull states, as transitions from strong bull to bull states will generally happen when buyers are losing steam. While one should not infer a reversal from such transitions, they can be a good place to tighten stops. Only time will tell if a reversal will occur. One or more divergences will often occur before reversals.
The nature of the divergence channel's design makes it particularly adept at identifying consolidation areas if its settings are kept on the conservative side. A gray divergence channel should usually be considered a no-trade zone. More adventurous traders can use the DV channel to orient their trade entries if they accept the risk of trading in a neutral divergence channel, which by definition will not have been breached by price.
If your charts are already busy with other stuff you want to hold on to, you could consider using only the chart bar coloring component of this indicator:
At its simplest, one way to use this indicator would be to look for overlaps of the strong bull/bear colors in both the DV channel and a divergence channel, as these identify points where price is breaching the divergence channel when buy/sell pressure is consistent with the direction of the breach. I have highlighted all those points in the chart below. Not all of them would have produced profitable trades, but nothing is perfect in the markets. Also, keep in mind that the circles identify the visual you would be looking for — not the trade's entry level.
█ LIMITATIONS
• The script will not work on symbols where no volume is available. An error will appear when that is the case.
• Because a maximum of 100K intrabars can be analyzed by a script, a compromise is necessary between the number of intrabars analyzed per chart bar
and chart coverage. The more intrabars you analyze per chart bar, the less coverage you will obtain.
The setting of the "Intrabar precision" field in the "DV channel" section of the script's inputs
is where you control how the lower timeframe is calculated from the chart's timeframe.
█ NOTES
Volume Quality
If you use volume, it's important to understand its nature and quality, as it varies with sectors and instruments. My Volume X-ray indicator is one way you can appraise the quality of an instrument's intraday volume.
For Pine Script™ Coders
• This script uses the new overload of the fill() function which now makes it possible to do vertical gradients in Pine. I use it for both channels displayed by this script.
• I use the new arguments for plot() 's `display` parameter to control where the script plots some of its values,
namely those I only want to appear in the script's status line and in the Data Window.
• I wrote my script using the revised recommendations in the Style Guide from the Pine v5 User Manual.

ARKA-Fisher TransformThe Fisher Transform is a technical indicator created by John F. Ehlers that converts prices into a Gaussian normal distribution.
The indicator highlights when prices have moved to an extreme, based on recent prices. This may help in spotting turning points in the price of an asset. It also helps show the trend and isolate the price waves within a trend. The Fisher Transform is a technical indicator that normalizes asset prices, thus making turning points in price clearer.
Takeaways
Turning points become a lot clearer with the use of Fisher Transform and its ability to track asset prices. In addition, while some traders choose to look for more dramatic readings that signal to price reversals, others may find it more beneficial to track Fisher Transform directional changes. Although the Fisher Transform is usually applied to asset prices, it can be applied to other indicators as well.
What to look for
As mentioned in the Definition section, the Fisher Transform is a technical indicator that converts price to Gaussian normal distribution, often including data that is not usually normal distributed (i.e. market prices).This causes data to present itself as more uniform, with less extreme changes in order to determine true price reversals in the market.
This technical indicator is what some would call “unbounded,” and therefore it is possible for extremes to occur long-term. The basis of what constitutes an extreme is determined by the historical readings of the asset you are working with. Reading values differ depending on the asset you’re analyzing. Asset readings are important because they have the potential of signalling a reversal, which can be confirmed or denied by Fisher Transform directional changes.
The Fisher Transform will often have a signal line attached. It is essentially the Fisher Transform’s value moving average and moves slower than the traditional indicator’s line. It is often used when the Fisher Transform moves across the trigger line.
Many traders opt to use the Fisher Transform with other indicators that specifically map out trend analysis. This is because the Fisher Transform sends out many different trade signals, some of which are not profitable in the slightest. By pairing it up with other indicators, traders get a more complete picture on when to acknowledge and act on buy and sell signals.
Keep in mind that the Fisher Transform indicator should not be confused for Bollinger Bands. They may look different on a chart, but both are rooted in distribution of asset prices and can often be confused. One way to easily tell them apart is to remember that the Fisher Transform appears on a price chart as a separate indicator, whereas Bollinger Bands are distinctively overlaid over the price.
Limitations
As mentioned in the What to look for section, the Fisher Transform can often send out many trade signals, causing a bit of congestion when all it is trying to do is make reversals and extreme change in price easier for traders to identify. This can become quite an issue, which is why pairing it with another indicator is highly suggested.
Also in this indicator, we can use Histogram and Lines simultaneously.
[blackcat] L3 Banker Fund AttackLevel 3
Background
This indicator is used to capture the movement of the banker fund. The buying and selling point is determined according to whether the momentum of the banker fund and the price momentum resonate.
How to use the indicator:
The red column line indicates that the banker fund accumulation signal appears, and the following 2 conditions are all satisfied to buy; (both above the green line of the banker fund attack threshold)
1. The yellow line and the purple line all cross the red accumulation histogram signal;
2. The yellow and purple trend lines are up
Key point: If the yellow line crosses the green line of the banker fund attack threshold, it will be pulled up or the big market will open! The main thing is to see the red accumulation histogram signal, or the green line that crosses the banker fund attack threshold. If there is a red accumulation histogram signal, it means that there are main low-acquisition chips, and start trading on the left to open a position. The area above the green line of the banker fund attack threshold belongs to the main force pulling stage. When the green line of the banker fund attack threshold is not broken upwards, there is still a lot of profit space, but if it can be effectively broken through, it is highly profitable!
Remarks
This indicator only effective for instruments that contains banker fund. If there is no obvious large fund inside, the indicator is not as meaningful as it is called.
I verified it worked well for > 4H or 1D timeframe. For the other time frames, you may need to check and verify by yourself.
Feedbacks are appreciated.
Step-MA Filtered Stochastic [Loxx]Step-MA Filtered Stochastic is a stochastic indicator with step moving average filtering. This smooths the signal by filtering out noise.
What is the Stochastic Indicator?
The stochastic oscillator, also known as stochastic indicator, is a popular trading indicator that is useful for predicting trend reversals. It also focuses on price momentum and can be used to identify overbought and oversold levels in shares, indices, currencies and many other investment assets.
The stochastic oscillator measures the momentum of price movements. Momentum is the rate of acceleration in price movement. The idea behind the stochastic indicator is that the momentum of an instrument’s price will often change before the price movement of the instrument actually changes direction. As a result, the indicator can be used to predict trend reversals.
The stochastic indicator can be used by experienced traders and those learning technical analysis. With the help of other technical analysis tools such as moving averages, trendlines and support and resistance levels, the stochastic oscillator can help to improve trading accuracy and identify profitable entry and exit points.

Blockchain Fundamentals - Active Address Sentiment Osc. [CR]Blockchain Fundamentals: Active Address Sentiment Oscillator AASO
Back with another script today, this one is a useful tool in helping to determine bitcoins value. We are looking at 2 data sources: the daily active addresses on the BTC blockchain, and the daily returns of BTC.
THIS INDICATOR WILL ONLY GIVE YOU THE CORRECT RESULTS ON THE DAILY TIMEFRAME
There is an interesting relationship that you can see by comparing the two timeseries. But for us to create a good indicator we first need to normalize the data. So we look at the percent change over the past 28 days for each metric (DAA and price).
THIS INDICATOR WILL ONLY GIVE YOU THE CORRECT RESULTS ON THE DAILY TIMEFRAME
We then calculate standard deviation bands around the DAA metric. We finalize them by averaging the bands over a 28 day period.
When the Price series (yellow line) is higher than the SD bands BTC is considered overvalued or price is overheated. A pullback could be expected soon. When the Price series is below the SD bands BTC is considered undervalued or price is oversold.
THIS INDICATOR WILL ONLY GIVE YOU THE CORRECT RESULTS ON THE DAILY TIMEFRAME
This tool doesnt give signals on the one minute chart or tell you exactly when to buy or sell. BUT what it does do is act as a convenient macro sentiment indicator that is not based completely upon price.
In an attempt to narrow down the really juicy areas, if you seen the background color highlights with white, that means its likely a top or bottom. At the very least on a local sense and many times in a cyclical macro sense as well. It also narrows down the signal to a generally more profitable area.
This indicator is not meant to be used on timeframes other than daily (did I mention that already?). I am lazy and did not code the calculations to be MTF (which is why you have to use on the daily chart). If you want to code this, please forward it on to me and I will post an update with a heartfelt credit to you.
TheATR: Aroon Oscillator.Aroon Oscillator (AO).
The Aroon Oscillator, was developed by Tushar Chande, in 1995, to highlight the start of a new trend and to measure trend strength.
I re-branded a bit the whole thing, If you are familiar with how this Oscillator usually is, you are going to notice the differences.
Aroon Oscillator Components.
1 - Aroon Up -> Bullish Directional Component, highlighted in blue.
2 - Aroon Down -> Bearish Directional Component, highlighted in purple.
We also have the Oscillators static thresholds, which are:
- 0 Line.
- 100 Line.
- Exit Signal Line Level.
How to read the Aroon Oscillator.
The AO main goal, is to identify the trend from its first stages, to then come up with how strong that trend is.
So, classic interpretation for the AO would be:
-Aroon Up>Aroon Down = Bull Scenario.
-Aroon Up<Aroon Down = Bear Scenario.
There's also a filter I added, called "Weak Spots Filter". It's purpose goes alongside with how the Aroon present its signals, which a big spike, that usually reaches the top range of the Oscillator, for both Long and Short cases.
So, if the momentum of the market fails to push the Aroon up to a specific level (Exit Signal Line Level), the Filter says market's not strong, and therefore signal is not valid.
The same level (Exit Signal Line Level) allows the user to set Exit Signals for the AO.
I found Exit Signal extremely powerful in this oscillator, as they way they're structured aims to capture the slow down of the trend, which may be followed by the market reversing.
TheATR Documentation regarding TheATR: Aroon Oscillator.
I pretty much already say what I love about the Aroon: It's Exit Signals.
Those are the most valuable part of the Oscillator, by far, in my opinion.
Also, I noticed it gives nice trend recognition when the lenght it's set to
big number (from 150 to 200, for ex).
But. I would never use JUST the Aroon, to decide when to enter and exit the market.
I think it may be an outstanding player if its in a team, where it should play a defensive role.
But that's just my way of using it. I wish you find profitable ways too!
Thanks for reading,
TheATR.

vStrat Algo 2.0vStrat Algo 2.0 is a Non-Repainting toolkit that works on any market such as stocks, crypto, forex, indices, commodities, etc. There are 8 advanced features that traders can use to help them create their own strategies. vStrat Algo 2.0 offers 10 sensitivity presets that they can choose from, making this toolkit suitable for every trading style whether it's scalping, day trading, swinging, or position trading.
I. Non-Repainting
When an indicator is Repainting , it changes its values as new data arrives, making it an unreliable indicator especially for Buy and Sell signals but this does not necessarily mean that the indicator is less accurate. vStrat Algo 2.0 does not repaint so the signals that were triggered in real time will stay the same during backtesting. If Non-Repainting is disabled, the signal that was triggered on a candle might disappear as new data arrives and once that candle closes, the signal might not even be there anymore, but it could get triggered on the next candle instead.
II. Signal Sensitivity
The Buy and Sell signals are highly accurate but the placement of each signal will differ for each selected preset. The higher the sensitivity (3.0 - 5.0), the more signals will be displayed on the chart. This setting works well when scalping using lower timeframes (1 min - 5 min). As the sensitivity lowers (0.5 - 2.5), less signals are displayed on the chart. If you are day trading or swinging, the lower presets are recommended as they are smoothed and will have less noise. Lower sensitivity works well on any timeframe.
III. Safe Mode
This feature hides any Buy and Sell signals that are triggered within the Consolidation Zones. The signals can still vary depending on the sensitivity, CZ Smoothing and CZ Length. The default setting is "3" and "7". "Unfiltered" must be unchecked for the signals to disappear.
IV. Unfiltered Signals
All Buy and Sell signals are displayed on the chart. This feature must be disabled if "Safe Mode" is enabled.
V. Trend Candle Colouring
This changes the bar colors depending on its trend. Green if it's trending up and red if it's trending down.
VI. Trend Cloud
Trend Cloud indicates the current market trend. This can also be used as a confluence to the Buy and Sell signals. Wider cloud indicates a strong momentum on either direction. As the cloud narrows, it could mean a possible reversal.
VII. Pivot Points
Pivot Points are useful for identifying significant support and resistance levels as well as identifying entry, exit, stop loss, and target profit levels.
VIII. Consolidation Zones
Consolidation Zones can be used to identify if the market is ranging. If enabled, it changes the colors of the bars that have low momentum to yellow. It is best to wait for a breakout to enter a trade but you can still be profitable when the market is ranging by trading based off Support and Resistance Levels and Imbalance Zones. Default setting is: Smoothing "3" and Length "7".
IX. Take Profit Levels
Take Profit signals are displayed on the chart as yellow "x". Once the algo detects a potential reversal, a Take Profit signal will be triggered so the user can lock in their profits. The signals can appear more than once so you have the option to keep holding as long as you know the risks. The lower the Length is, the more signals appear.
X. Alerts
Buy and Sell signal alerts can be created by clicking the three dots in the vStrat Algo 2.0 indicator tile.

VWAP + EMA Analysis [Joshlo]Overview and Use Case
VWAP Analysis gives the possibility to combine multiple time frames of VWAP along with a triplet of exponential moving averages. This can provide insight into potential scalp, swing and longer term trades, depending on your time frame. The use of this indicator with it's setup is based off the the Scalp Setup Alerts provided by Roensch Capital.
The primary use for this script is to help with intraday scalp set ups. Using the Daily VWAP, turned on by default, we can look for price to respect and bounce from one of the VWAP lines (support or resistance) back toward equilibrium, we can also look for price to bounce off of equilibrium and move back toward VWAP support or resistance.
The chart attached shows AMD bouncing off of the Daily time frame VWAP Resistance level multiple times (see yellow boxes), often with confirmation given by an increase in volume which is often far higher than the average volume. In many of these cases a short position could've been opened or put option could have been placed with a profitable outcome.
Every line projected onto the chart via this indicator has the potential to create support or resistance as well as causing 'hang ups', meaning price loses it's momentum, slows down and hangs out in the particular area. This is shown on the chart within the green box.
Chart walkthrough - See attached chart
After a rejection off of the Daily VWAP Resistance line (depicted by the white circle), price starts to move back toward Daily VWAP Equilibrium. In order to reach this line, price needs to move through the 20EMA (white) and 50EMA (purple), the Weekly VWAP Resistance (red circles) and the 200EMA (orange). All of these lines are a part of this single indicator.
The 20EMA seems to offer little resistance but follows the price on it's move, offering some resistance to a volatile move upward. Initially upon contact with the 50EMA, price hangs up and bounces above and below the line whilst finding support on the Weekly VWAP Resistance at the same time. This causes a 'hang up' or sideways movement for around 20 minutes of trading. A potential trade may have entered at the white circle with a VWAP Resistance rejection and exited upon contact with the 50EMA in anticipation of multiple EMAs and support / resistance lines converging which is known to cause price movement to slow.
Eventually with an increase in volume, price breaks below the 20EMA (white), 50EMA (purple) and the Weekly VWAP Resistance level (red circles). Price then finds support on the 200EMA (orange), although there was potential for the price to fall to the Daily VWAP Equilibrium (solid blue). As the Red VWAP lines tend to act more often as resistance as opposed to support (price is rarely above these lines for extended periods), the trade from earlier may have profited more by awaiting contact with the 200EMA before exiting, taking the assumption that the Weekly VWAP Resistance was more likely to act as resistance than support.
A period of consolidation in the green box, around the Weekly VWAP Resistance, 20EMA, 50EMA and with support from the 200EMA eventually resulted in another break out where the price came back up to the Daily VWAP Resistance. Prior to the end of this trading day, there were two more opportunities for scalp setups based off of the price showing consistent rejections off the Daily VWAP Resistance back down to the 50EMA.
In the final example, price breaks above the Daily VWAP Resistance but quickly rejects off of the Monthly VWAP Resistance. For examples where the VWAP Resistance or Support or broken, it can help to look at an indicator such as the RSI to look for bullish divergence or bearish divergence.
Just as this example shows bounces and rejection off of VWAP Resistance, the same applies around the Equilibrium and Support VWAP lines.
The perfect scenario would be to find a ticker where there has already been two or three bounces off of one of these levels, with the goal of taking the trade on the next bounce and either using a percentage price target or technical price target based off of the EMAs or VWAP lines. If there are EMAs close in the direction you want to take the trade, there is a higher chance of hang ups and reversals, so a clear run is the more desired trade set up.
You can also look for these indicator lines to stack up in order to form a stronger support and resistance. For example the 200EMA and Daily VWAP Equilibrium being close to each other may suggest it would take more of an effort to break both of these levels, but one by itself may break more easily.
Indicator Setup
In the settings for the indicator, almost everything you might want to change can be done from the Input tab.
The three options for VWAP (daily, weekly and monthly) allow for analysis on multiple time frames. Daily is turned on as standard.
Standard Deviation Multiplier is set to 2 as standard, this effects the distance of the VWAP support and resistance from the equilibrium line. This seems to be a level that works well with finding support and resistance lines, however if there is excessively high or low volume, occasionally the lines can be thrown off. You can adjust this level if required to find a 'sweet spot' where price likes to reject or find support.
The colors for all VWAPs can be adjusted via the Inputs tab, however if you'd like to change the type of line these are depicted as, this can be done from the Styles tab.
The 3 EMAs (20, 50 and 200) can be toggled on or off and also have their color changed. The style of the lines can be adjusted from with the Styles tab if required.

Trend101 v5Welcome to what I believe to be the best indicator on TradingView. Trend101 v5
"Not all trends are made equal"
You should be only trading the trends that matter most... The basis of this script is using volume to rank price trends and give more prominence to the trends that are backed by volume, enabling you to only focus on riding the trends that matter.
If we see a trend with high volume, this will show up in the indicator with larger green or red columns / bars & the trends with low volume will cause little movement in the indicator.
Some indicators are great at showing price trends, some are great at showing volume... Trend101 v5 is great at showing both of these.
This indicator can be used in a variety of ways:
1) The most simplistic is to trade crossovers from Bull > Bear trends and vice versa. This alone can be profitable with a "scalping" mindset where you ride the trend until it shows signs of weakness.
2) The other way I use this indicator is to act as a confirmation tool... for example if price is approach a level of support, you can wait until the price shows signs of rejection and then your confirmation for entry is that Trend101 v5 will change to green. (& the opposite for levels of resistance).
Finally you are also able to use the Timeframe input to select different timeframes, this is useful to use two Trend101 indicators together to filter trade entries. An example would be using one Trend101 indicator set on the 15min timeframe and one set on the Daily timeframe and when both of these align in the same trend direction you are able to enter your trade.
I will produce a video "How To..." guide for this indicator shortly to explain other details.
Let me know in the comments below how you are using the indicator and all feedback is welcome.

You hear so much about crypto these days. In all fairness, you easily get confused. People promoting their super star project and found the next big in trading. It is true though if you know what you are looking for you the opportunities are right there. A trading strategy that works and fits your style too. Most people however do not know what to look for and keep jumping from thing to another, ending up with no profits and certainly little to no joy.
We have been in this place. Until we finally came to a point where we started to get some sense of what was out there and more importantly what was working. This is where we started to become profitable and to actually enjoy whilst trading. Let us tell you though, this is no get rich quick scheme, you may be lucky, but in most cases, it does simply require effort. We thought ourselves, we like educating others, so why not combining this and get you to a flying start in trading crypto.
MM SIGMA STC+ADXThe Schaff Trend Cycle (STC) is a charting indicator that is commonly used to identify market trends and provide buy and sell signals to traders. Developed in 1999 by noted currency trader Doug Schaff, STC is a type of oscillator and is based on the assumption that, regardless of time frame, currency trends accelerate and decelerate in cyclical patterns.12
How STC Works
Many traders are familiar with the moving average convergence/divergence (MACD) charting tool, which is an indicator that is used to forecast price action and is notorious for lagging due to its slow responsive signal line . By contrast, STC’s signal line enables it to detect trends sooner. In fact, it typically identifies up and downtrends long before MACD indicator.
While STC is computed using the same exponential moving averages as MACD, it adds a novel cycle component to improve accuracy and reliability. While MACD is simply computed using a series of moving average, the cycle aspect of STC is based on time (e.g., number of days).
It should also be noted that, although STC was developed primarily for fast currency markets, it may be effectively employed across all markets, just like MACD. It can be applied to intraday charts, such as five minutes or one-hour charts, as well as daily, weekly, or monthly time frames.
Introduction to ADX
ADX is used to quantify trend strength. ADX calculations are based on a moving average of price range expansion over a given period of time. The default setting is 14 bars, although other time periods can be used.1 ADX can be used on any trading vehicle such as stocks, mutual funds, exchange-traded funds and futures.
ADX is plotted as a single line with values ranging from a low of zero to a high of 100. ADX is non-directional; it registers trend strength whether price is trending up or down.2 The indicator is usually plotted in the same window as the two directional movement indicator (DMI) lines, from which ADX is derived (shown below).Quantifying Trend Strength
ADX values help traders identify the strongest and most profitable trends to trade. The values are also important for distinguishing between trending and non-trending conditions. Many traders will use ADX readings above 25 to suggest that the trend is strong enough for trend-trading strategies. Conversely, when ADX is below 25, many will avoid trend-trading strategies.
ADX Value Trend Strength
0-25 Absent or Weak Trend
25-50 Strong Trend
50-75 Very Strong Trend
75-100 Extremely Strong Trend
Low ADX is usually a sign of accumulation or distribution. When ADX is below 25 for more than 30 bars, price enters range conditions, and price patterns are often easier to identify. Price then moves up and down between resistance and support to find selling and buying interest, respectively. From low ADX conditions, price will eventually break out into a trend. Below, the price moves from a low ADX price channel to an uptrend with strong ADX.
Added Buy/Sell alerts
ADX filters based on the threshold you put in the settings.

Maverick Trend LineBackstory of the Maverick Trend Line:
If you just want to know what the indicator does and how it works, you can skip this part and jump straight to the next section. However, I thought it would be useful to provide some background as to how I came up with this script, as it turned out to be quite different from what I originally planned it to be.
This is the second indicator, part of a trading strategy, which is constructed to work alongside " RSI Effective Reversal ". In some of the earlier (draft) versions, there were gazillion trend lines, so much so that they were obstructing what was the most important thing - price action. Gradually, I started reducing them, while incorporating other indicators like Directional Movement, RSI, Quantitative Qualitative Estimation (QQE) indicator, slope adaptive moving averages, etc.
Originally constructed as a strategy, when backtested, this indicator was profitable on the major assets I was trading - SPX500, Crude Oil, Copper, Natural Gas, BTC and ETH . I tested it on the 1h and 4h time frames (those that I trade in). I implemented fairly simple entry criteria - go long when RSI is oversold and price crosses up a certain trend line and go short when RSI is overbought and the price crosses down a certain trend line.
Now, why didn't I release this as a strategy? The results were good, but not nearly as good when trading experience and subjective decision-making were implemented. The script does not take into account trend lines that are easy to see with a naked eye, nor does it account for support and resistance levels. As such, a trader with some minor experience could make much more profit by implementing "the art of trading" as opposed to mechanically following entries and exits (at least with this script).
Maybe I didn't develop it well enough to be a comprehensive automatic strategy, but I've spent over 6 months testing different variations and it never outperformed manual trading with subjective entries, stop losses set at key levels (as opposed to trail stop-loss) and adding up to existing positions when the right opportunities come. So, let me just recap before we get to the important part of how the indicator works. Maverick Trend Line, when implemented with "RSI Effective Reversal" works like a charm when used manually (as guidance), and only merely outperforms a buy and hold strategy (based on a year-over-year basis on the backtesting engine).
What does the Maverick Trend Line do?
The now very trimmed version consists of two major elements - Price Base Line and Trend Base Line . The former is a Qualitative Quantitative Estimation (QQE) moving average with some smoothing modifications, while the latter is an adaptive moving average, again with some adjustments for smoother results. The parameters that you can tweak are:
lengths of the moving averages
QQE factor
smoothing factor
type of moving average, being used as a base for generating the base lines. You can choose between EMA, SMA, RMA, WMA and ALMA
Since Price Base Line follows the price closely and the Trend Base Line follows the overall trend, the Maverick Trend Line is a combination of both, following the price action closely, while still giving it some "room to breathe". You can switch between the two base lines or Maverick at any time.
How to use the Maverick Trend Line?
I am a huge fan of simplicity (which you may already know if you've checked some of my other indicators), so there's a minimum number of steps to follow before being able to use the indicator. By default it's switch to Maverick. I suggest unticking the box, tweaking the Price and Trend Base Lines according to the asset(s) you will trade (but do not attempt to perfectly fit it to the price) and once you are ready, switch back to Maverick. Alternatively, if you will find it useful, apply the indicator twice and have all the three lines at the same time. It's entirely up to you.
I would then suggest applying the RSI Effective Reversal Indicator and wait for overbought/sold situations. Once the price goes above or below the Maverick trend line after an oversold or overbought area, you can open a long/short order respectively. The added advantage of RSI Effective Reversal is that it's constructed of candles as opposed to a mere line. As such, it give you heads up when price is about revert, as the candles start turning from bullish to bearish.
Needless to say, no indicator or strategy is perfect, so I strongly suggest papertrading first until you get a grasp of the indicator, and as always - apply sound money management rules. Protect your capital, so that you can live to trade another day.

PhinkTrade Risk Manager EssentialsHello there, fellow traders!
So, happy to bring you a new, free tool: my Risk Manager Essentials .
(To use it, click on "Add to favorite indicators" below, and then look for it in your charts’ "Indicators & Strategies" dialog window, inside "Favorites" tab.)
The main objective of this indicator is to help and incentivize as many traders as possible to adopt essential risk management practices .
First and foremost, it helps you define how much you can buy or sell, at your chosen price levels, in order to keep your risk always under control (in other words: in order to limit the amount you can potentially lose with a trade if your stop loss order is hit).
This is fundamental if you want to have a lasting and successful trading career: protect your capital, always . Because without it, you know: it’s game over.
Indicator also helps you visualize where minimum ideal target / take profit level is , given your risk, using the popular 3:1 Return/Risk ratio (R/R) .
3:1 R/R ratio is popular because with it you only need to “be right” (have price reach your targets) about 33% of the time, in order to be profitable : in other words, the fewer successful trades will pay you more than the sum of your unsuccessful ones will take from you.
So, make sure your strategy has a success rate greater than 33% and apply 3:1 R/R to your trades . This indicator will help you that, and with developing the necessary discipline . For example, by knowing where the ideal target should be, given your choices, you can assess the likelihood of it being reached in current price context. If that would look like a hard to happen scenario, it would probably be a good idea to avoid taking that particular trade.
Now, let’s see how it works:
When you deploy the indicator to the chart for the first time, you’ll be asked to define:
Your 1st entry price (interactively: you can define and adjust levels directly on the chart, thanks to the new Interactive Mode introduced by TradingView (ty, TV team!))
Your stop loss price (likewise)
Your 1st target price (likewise)
Your starting capital (via initial Input dialog)
Your risk (likewise)
Your risk is how much of your starting capital you are willing to lose if your stop loss is hit (define it as a % of your starting capital).
There’s a good practice here too: to risk only 1 percent of your capital per trade . This way, you can reinforce the odds of making more money than you lose and keep your peace of mind in all trades – and avoid messing up with your plans – and statistics – along the way.
Successful trading is a statistics-based endeavor. So, you want to implement and maintain consistency. Again, this indicator helps with that.
After initial setup:
You can also define additional entries and targets (up to 3 each) . Just open indicator’s Settings window and adjust accordingly.
If you have more than one entry – or target, the amounts involved will be split evenly between them. You can also enable the display of the Average Entry and Average Target labels , to see the equivalent, should you have taken (or take) a single order for each.
You can also define (via Settings, then interactively) a particular date and time for the trade . This way, labels will be presented near that moment, instead of constantly show near the latest bar.
Finally, you can personalize some other display settings: levels precision (number of decimal places), labels positions , and labels colors .
