Signal Reliability Based on Condition Count
The reliability of the buy/sell signals increases as more conditions are met. Here's a breakdown of the probabilities:
1. 1-3 Conditions Met: Lower Probability
o Signals that meet only 1-3 conditions tend to have lower reliability and are considered less probable. These signals may represent false positives or weaker market movements, and traders should approach them with caution.
2. 4 Conditions Met: More Reliable Signal
o When 4 conditions are met, the signal becomes more reliable. This indicates that multiple indicators or market patterns are aligning, increasing the likelihood of a valid buy/sell opportunity. While not foolproof, it's a stronger indication that the market may be moving in a particular direction.
3. 5-6 Conditions Met: Strong Signal
o A signal meeting 5-6 conditions is considered a strong signal. This indicates a well-confirmed move, with several technical indicators and market factors aligning to suggest a higher probability of success. These are the signals that traders often prioritize.
4. 7+ Conditions Met: Rare and High-Confidence Signal
o Signals that meet 7 or more conditions are rare and should be considered high-confidence signals. These represent a significant alignment of multiple factors, and while they are less frequent, they are highly reliable when they do occur. Traders can be more confident in acting on these signals, but they should still monitor market conditions for confirmation.
________________________________________
You can adjust the number of conditions as needed, but this breakdown should give a clear structure on how the signal strength correlates with the number of conditions met!

The indicator is designed to help traders identify potential long signals by combining the Relative Strength Index (RSI) and Bollinger Bands across multiple timeframes. This combination allows traders to leverage the strengths of both indicators to make more informed trading decisions.
Understanding RSI
What is RSI?
The Relative Strength Index (RSI) is a momentum oscillator that measures the speed and change of price movements. Developed by J. Welles Wilder Jr. for stocks and forex trading, the RSI is primarily used to identify overbought or oversold conditions in an asset.
How RSI Works:
Calculation: The RSI is calculated using the average gains and losses over a specified period, typically 14 periods.
Range: The RSI oscillates between 0 and 100.
Interpretation:
Key Features of RSI:
Momentum Indicator: RSI helps identify the momentum of price movements.
Divergences: RSI can show divergences, where the price makes a higher high, but the RSI makes a lower high, indicating potential reversals.
Trend Identification: RSI can also help identify trends. In an uptrend, the RSI tends to stay above 50, and in a downtrend, it tends to stay below 50.
Understanding Bollinger Bands
What is Bollinger Bands?
Bollinger Bands are a type of trading band or envelope plotted two standard deviations (positively and negatively) away from a simple moving average (SMA) of a price. Developed by financial analyst John Bollinger, Bollinger Bands consist of three lines:
Upper Band: SMA + (Standard Deviation × Multiplier)
Middle Band (Basis): SMA
Lower Band: SMA - (Standard Deviation × Multiplier)
How Bollinger Bands Work:
Volatility Measure: Bollinger Bands measure the volatility of the market. When the bands are wide, it indicates high volatility, and when the bands are narrow, it indicates low volatility.
Price Movement: The price tends to revert to the mean (middle band) after touching the upper or lower bands.
Support and Resistance: The upper and lower bands can act as dynamic support and resistance levels.
Key Features of Bollinger Bands:
Volatility Indicator: Bollinger Bands help traders understand the volatility of the market.
Mean Reversion: Prices tend to revert to the mean (middle band) after touching the bands.
Squeeze: A Bollinger Band Squeeze occurs when the bands narrow significantly, indicating low volatility and a potential breakout.

Kalman Synergy Oscillator (KSO)The Kalman Synergy Oscillator (KSO) is an innovative technical indicator that combines the Kalman filter with two well-established momentum oscillators: the Relative Strength Index (RSI) and Williams %R. This combination aims to provide traders with a more refined tool for market analysis.
The use of the Kalman filter is a key feature of the KSO. This sophisticated algorithm is known for its ability to extract meaningful signals from noisy data. In financial markets, this translates to smoothing out price action while maintaining responsiveness to genuine market movements. By applying the Kalman filter to price data before calculating the RSI and Williams %R, the KSO potentially offers more stable and reliable signals.
The synergy between the Kalman-filtered price data and the two momentum indicators creates an oscillator that attempts to capture market dynamics more effectively. The RSI contributes its strength in measuring the magnitude and speed of price movements, while Williams %R adds sensitivity to overbought and oversold conditions. Basing these calculations on Kalman-filtered data may help reduce false signals and provide a clearer picture of underlying market trends.
A notable aspect of the KSO is its dynamic weighting system. This approach adjusts the relative importance of the RSI and Williams %R based on their current strengths, allowing the indicator to emphasize the most relevant information as market conditions change. This flexibility, combined with the noise-reduction properties of the Kalman filter, positions the KSO as a potentially useful tool for different market conditions.
In practice, traders might find that the KSO offers several potential benefits:
Smoother oscillator movements, which could aid in trend identification and reversal detection.
Possibly reduced whipsaws, particularly in choppy or volatile markets.
Potential for improved divergence detection, which might lead to more timely reversal signals.
Consistent performance across different timeframes, due to the adaptive nature of the Kalman filter.
While the KSO builds upon existing concepts in technical analysis, its integration of the Kalman filter with traditional momentum indicators offers traders an interesting tool for market analysis. It represents an attempt to address common challenges in technical analysis, such as noise reduction and false signal minimization.
As with any technical indicator, the KSO should be used as part of a broader trading strategy rather than in isolation. Its effectiveness will depend on how well it aligns with a trader's individual approach and market conditions. For traders looking to explore a more refined momentum oscillator, the Kalman Synergy Oscillator could be a worthwhile addition to their analytical toolkit.
GBP Index vs CAD Index Currency OscillatorGBP vs CAD Currency Oscillator
This custom oscillator compares the relative strength of GBP (British Pound) and CAD (Canadian Dollar) against a basket of other currencies to determine potential overbought and oversold conditions. The indicator is designed to help traders evaluate momentum shifts and identify possible trend reversals between these two currencies, not just the GBPCAD pair.
How it Works:
Currency Index Calculation:
The oscillator calculates the average percentage change in 7 key GBP pairs (GBPUSD, EURGBP, GBPJPY, GBPAUD, GBPNZD, GBPCAD, and GBPCHF).
Similarly, it calculates the average percentage change for 7 key CAD pairs (USDCAD, EURCAD, CADJPY, AUDCAD, NZDCAD, GBPCAD, and CADCHF).
Stochastic Oscillator:
The indicator calculates a 0-100 oscillator for both the GBP and CAD currency indices based on the highest high and lowest low over a user-defined lookback period (default is 14 anlthough 60 works great on 1m chart).
The oscillator is smoothed using a simple moving average (default smoothing period is 3) to reduce noise and improve visual clarity.
Overbought/Oversold Conditions:
Overbought: When both the GBP and CAD oscillators exceed 80, the background turns red, indicating potential overbought conditions.
Oversold: When both oscillators fall below 20, the background turns green, signaling possible oversold conditions.
Crossovers:
When the GBP oscillator crosses above the CAD oscillator, a green dot appears at the bottom of the chart, signaling potential GBP strength.
When the GBP oscillator crosses below the CAD oscillator, a red dot appears, signaling potential CAD strength.
How to Use:
Overbought/Oversold Conditions: Use the red and green background highlights to spot potential overbought or oversold market conditions, helping you identify possible turning points.
Customization Options:
Lookback Period: You can adjust the lookback period for the stochastic calculation, allowing for sensitivity tuning (default: 14).
Smoothing Period: Control the degree of smoothing applied to the oscillators (default: 3).
This oscillator is ideal for traders focused on trading GBP and CAD pairs, offering a comparative analysis that can assist in better decision-making based on relative currency strength.
Uptrick: Market MoodsThe "Uptrick: Market Moods" indicator is an advanced technical analysis tool designed for the TradingView platform. It combines three powerful indicators—Relative Strength Index (RSI), Average True Range (ATR), and Bollinger Bands—into one cohesive framework, aimed at helping traders better understand and interpret market sentiment. By capturing shifts in the emotional climate of the market, it provides a holistic view of market conditions, which can range from calm to stressed or even highly excited. This multi-dimensional analysis tool stands apart from traditional single-indicator approaches by offering a more complete picture of market dynamics, making it a valuable resource for traders looking to anticipate and react to changes in market behavior.
The RSI in the "Uptrick: Market Moods" indicator is used to measure momentum. RSI is an essential component of many technical analysis strategies, and in this tool, it is used to identify potential market extremes. When RSI values are high, they indicate an overbought condition, meaning the market may be approaching a peak. Conversely, low RSI values suggest an oversold condition, signaling that the market could be nearing a bottom. These extremes provide crucial clues about shifts in market sentiment, helping traders gauge whether the current emotional state of the market is likely to result in a reversal. This understanding is pivotal in predicting whether the market is transitioning from calm to stressed or from excited to overbought.
The Average True Range adds another layer to this analysis by offering insights into market volatility. Volatility is a key factor in understanding the mood of the market, as periods of high volatility often reflect high levels of excitement or stress, while low volatility typically indicates a calm, steady market. ATR is calculated based on the range of price movements over a given period, and the higher the value, the more volatile the market is. The "Uptrick: Market Moods" indicator uses ATR to dynamically gauge volatility levels, helping traders understand whether the market is currently moving in a way that aligns with its emotional mood. For example, an increase in ATR accompanied by an RSI value that indicates overbought conditions could suggest that the market is in a highly excited state, with the potential for either strong momentum continuation or a sharp reversal.
Bollinger Bands complement these tools by providing visual cues about price volatility and the range within which the market is likely to move. Bollinger Bands plot two standard deviations away from a simple moving average of the price. This banding technique helps traders visualize how far the price is likely to deviate from its average over a certain period. The "Uptrick: Market Moods" indicator uses Bollinger Bands to establish price boundaries and identify breakout conditions. When prices break above the upper band or below the lower band, it often signals that the market is either highly stressed or excited. This breakout condition serves as a visual representation of the market mood, alerting traders to moments when prices are moving beyond typical ranges and when significant emotional shifts are occurring in the market.
Technically, the "Uptrick: Market Moods" indicator has been developed using TradingView’s Pine Script language, a highly efficient language for building custom indicators. It employs functions like ta.rsi, ta.atr, and ta.sma to perform the necessary calculations. The use of these built-in functions ensures that the calculations are both accurate and efficient, allowing the indicator to operate in real-time without lagging, even in volatile market conditions. The ta.rsi function is used to compute the Relative Strength Index, while ta.atr calculates the Average True Range, and ta.sma is used to smooth out price data for the Bollinger Bands. These functions are applied dynamically within the script, allowing the "Uptrick: Market Moods" indicator to respond to changes in market conditions in real time.
The user interface of the "Uptrick: Market Moods" indicator is designed to provide a visually intuitive experience. The market mood is color-coded on the chart, making it easy for traders to identify whether the market is calm, stressed, or excited at a glance. This feature is especially useful for traders who need to make quick decisions in fast-moving markets. Additionally, the indicator includes an interactive table that updates in real-time, showing the most recent mood state and its frequency. This provides valuable statistical insights into market behavior over specific time frames, helping traders track the dominant emotional state of the market. Whether the market is in a prolonged calm state or rapidly transitioning through moods, this real-time feedback offers actionable data that can help traders adjust their strategies accordingly.
The RSI component of the "Uptrick: Market Moods" indicator helps detect the speed and direction of price movements, offering insight into whether the market is approaching extreme conditions. By providing signals based on overbought and oversold levels, the RSI helps traders decide whether to enter or exit positions. The ATR element acts as a volatility gauge, dynamically adjusting traders’ expectations in response to changes in market volatility. Meanwhile, the Bollinger Bands help identify trends and potential breakout conditions, serving as an additional confirmation tool that highlights when the price has moved beyond normal boundaries, indicating heightened market excitement or stress.
Despite the robust capabilities of the "Uptrick: Market Moods" indicator, it does have limitations. In markets affected by sudden shifts, such as those driven by major news events or external economic factors, the indicator’s performance may not always be reliable. These external factors can cause rapid mood swings that are difficult for any technical analysis tool to fully anticipate. Additionally, the indicator’s complexity may pose a learning curve for novice traders, particularly those who are unfamiliar with the concepts of RSI, ATR, and Bollinger Bands. However, with practice, traders can become proficient in using the tool to its full potential, leveraging the insights it provides to better navigate market shifts.
For traders seeking a deeper understanding of market sentiment, the "Uptrick: Market Moods" indicator is an invaluable resource. It is recommended for those dealing with medium to high volatility instruments, where understanding emotional shifts can offer a strategic advantage. While it can be used on its own, integrating it with other forms of analysis, such as fundamental analysis and additional technical indicators, can enhance its effectiveness. By confirming signals with other tools, traders can reduce the likelihood of false signals and improve their overall trading strategy.
To further enhance the accuracy of the "Uptrick: Market Moods" indicator, it can be integrated with volume-based tools like Volume Profile or On-Balance Volume (OBV). This combination allows traders to confirm the moods identified by the indicator with volume data, providing additional confirmation of market sentiment. For example, when the market is in an excited mood, an increase in trading volume could reinforce the reliability of that signal. Conversely, if the market is stressed but volume remains low, traders may want to proceed with caution. Using multiple indicators together creates a more comprehensive trading approach, helping traders better manage risk and make informed decisions based on multiple data points.
In conclusion, the "Uptrick: Market Moods" indicator is a powerful and unique addition to the suite of technical analysis tools available on TradingView.

------------------------------------------------------------------------------
The "RSI with Bollinger Bands Scalp Strategy (1min)" is a highly effective tool designed for traders who engage in short-term scalping on the 1-minute chart. This indicator combines the strengths of the RSI (Relative Strength Index) and Bollinger Bands to generate precise buy signals, helping traders make quick and informed decisions in fast-moving markets.
How It Works:
RSI (Relative Strength Index):
The RSI is a widely-used momentum oscillator that measures the speed and change of price movements. It operates on a scale of 0 to 100 and helps identify overbought and oversold conditions in the market.
This strategy allows customization of the RSI's lower and upper bands (default settings: 30 for the lower band and 70 for the upper band) and the RSI length (default: 14).
Bollinger Bands:
Bollinger Bands consist of a central moving average (the basis) and two bands that represent standard deviations above and below the basis. These bands expand and contract based on market volatility.
In this strategy, the Bollinger Bands are used to identify potential buy and sell signals based on the price's relationship to the upper and lower bands.
Signal Generation:
Buy Signal: A buy signal is triggered when two conditions are met:
The RSI value falls below the specified lower band, indicating an oversold condition.
The price crosses below the lower Bollinger Band.
The buy signal is then issued on the first positive candle (where the closing price is greater than or equal to the opening price) after these conditions are met.
Sell Signal: In this version of the strategy, the sell signal is currently disabled to focus solely on generating and optimizing the buy signals for scalping.
Strategy Highlights:

Usage:
Use this indicator on a 1-minute chart to identify potential buy opportunities during short-term price dips.
Since the sell signals are disabled, this strategy is best used in conjunction with other indicators or strategies to manage exit points effectively.
This "RSI with Bollinger Bands Scalp Strategy (1min)" indicator is a valuable tool for traders looking to enhance their short-term trading performance by focusing on high-probability entry points in volatile market conditions.
Uptrick: Dynamic AMA RSI Indicator### **Uptrick: Dynamic AMA RSI Indicator**
**Overview:**
The **Uptrick: Dynamic AMA RSI Indicator** is an advanced technical analysis tool designed for traders who seek to optimize their trading strategies by combining adaptive moving averages with the Relative Strength Index (RSI). This indicator dynamically adjusts to market conditions, offering a nuanced approach to trend detection and momentum analysis. By leveraging the Adaptive Moving Average (AMA) and Fast Adaptive Moving Average (FAMA), along with RSI-based overbought and oversold signals, traders can better identify entry and exit points with higher precision and reduced noise.
**Key Components:**
1. **Source Input:**
- The source input is the price data that forms the basis of all calculations. Typically set to the closing price, traders can customize this to other price metrics such as open, high, low, or even the output of another indicator. This flexibility allows the **Uptrick** indicator to be tailored to a wide range of trading strategies.
2. **Adaptive Moving Average (AMA):**
- The AMA is a moving average that adapts its sensitivity based on the dominant market cycle. This adaptation allows the AMA to respond swiftly to significant price movements while smoothing out minor fluctuations, making it particularly effective in trending markets. The AMA adjusts its responsiveness dynamically using a calculated phase adjustment from the dominant cycle, ensuring it remains responsive to the current market environment without being overly reactive to market noise.
3. **Fast Adaptive Moving Average (FAMA):**
- The FAMA is a more sensitive version of the AMA, designed to react faster to price changes. It serves as a signal line in the crossover strategy, highlighting shorter-term trends. The interaction between the AMA and FAMA forms the core of the signal generation, with crossovers between these lines indicating potential buy or sell opportunities.
4. **Relative Strength Index (RSI):**
- The RSI is a momentum oscillator that measures the speed and change of price movements, providing insights into whether an asset is overbought or oversold. In the **Uptrick** indicator, the RSI is used to confirm the validity of crossover signals between the AMA and FAMA, adding an additional layer of reliability to the trading signals.
**Indicator Logic:**
1. **Dominant Cycle Calculation:**
- The indicator starts by calculating the dominant market cycle using a smoothed price series. This involves applying exponential moving averages to a series of price differences, extracting cycle components, and determining the instantaneous phase of the cycle. This phase is then adjusted to provide a phase adjustment factor, which plays a critical role in determining the adaptive alpha.
2. **Adaptive Alpha Calculation:**
- The adaptive alpha, a key feature of the AMA, is computed based on the fast and slow limits set by the trader. This alpha is clamped within these limits to ensure the AMA remains appropriately sensitive to market conditions. The dynamic adjustment of alpha allows the AMA to be highly responsive in volatile markets and more conservative in stable markets.
3. **Crossover Detection:**
- The indicator generates trading signals based on crossovers between the AMA and FAMA:
- **CrossUp:** When the AMA crosses above the FAMA, it indicates a potential bullish trend, suggesting a buy opportunity.
- **CrossDown:** When the AMA crosses below the FAMA, it signals a potential bearish trend, indicating a sell opportunity.
4. **RSI Confirmation:**
- To enhance the reliability of these crossover signals, the indicator uses the RSI to confirm overbought and oversold conditions:
- **Buy Signal:** A buy signal is generated only when the AMA crosses above the FAMA and the RSI confirms an oversold condition, ensuring that the signal aligns with a momentum reversal from a low point.
- **Sell Signal:** A sell signal is triggered when the AMA crosses below the FAMA and the RSI confirms an overbought condition, indicating a momentum reversal from a high point.
5. **Signal Management:**
- To prevent signal redundancy during strong trends, the indicator tracks the last generated signal (buy or sell) and ensures that the next signal is only issued when there is a genuine reversal in trend direction.
6. **Signal Visualization:**
- **Buy Signals:** The indicator plots a "BUY" label below the bar when a buy signal is generated, using a green color to clearly mark the entry point.
- **Sell Signals:** A "SELL" label is plotted above the bar when a sell signal is detected, marked in red to indicate an exit or shorting opportunity.
- **Bar Coloring (Optional):** Traders have the option to enable bar coloring, where green bars indicate a bullish trend (AMA above FAMA) and red bars indicate a bearish trend (AMA below FAMA), providing a visual representation of the market’s direction.
**Customization Options:**
- **Source:** Traders can select the price data input that best suits their strategy (e.g., close, open, high, low, or custom indicators).
- **Fast Limit:** Adjustable sensitivity for the fast response of the AMA, allowing traders to tailor the indicator to different market conditions.
- **Slow Limit:** Sets the slower boundary for the AMA’s sensitivity, providing stability in less volatile markets.
- **RSI Length:** The period for the RSI calculation can be adjusted to fit different trading timeframes.
- **Overbought/Oversold Levels:** These thresholds can be customized to define the RSI levels that trigger buy or sell confirmations.
- **Enable Bar Colors:** Traders can choose whether to enable bar coloring based on the AMA/FAMA relationship, enhancing visual clarity.
**How Different Traders Can Use the Indicator:**
1. **Day Traders:**
- **Uptrick: Dynamic AMA RSI Indicator** is highly effective for day traders who need to make quick decisions in fast-moving markets. The adaptive nature of the AMA and FAMA allows the indicator to respond rapidly to intraday price swings. Day traders can use the buy and sell signals generated by the crossover and RSI confirmation to time their entries and exits with greater precision, minimizing exposure to false signals often prevalent in high-frequency trading environments.
2. **Swing Traders:**
- Swing traders can benefit from the indicator’s ability to identify and confirm trend reversals over several days or weeks. By adjusting the RSI length and sensitivity limits, swing traders can fine-tune the indicator to catch longer-term price movements, helping them to ride trends and maximize profits over medium-term trades. The dual confirmation of crossovers with RSI ensures that swing traders enter trades that have a higher probability of success.
3. **Position Traders:**
- For position traders who hold trades over longer periods, the **Uptrick** indicator offers a reliable method to stay in trades that align with the dominant trend while avoiding premature exits. By adjusting the slow limit and extending the RSI length, position traders can smooth out the indicator’s sensitivity, allowing them to focus on major market shifts rather than short-term volatility. The bar coloring feature also provides a clear visual indication of the overall trend, aiding in trade management decisions.
4. **Scalpers:**
- Scalpers, who seek to profit from small price movements, can use the fast responsiveness of the FAMA in conjunction with the RSI to identify micro-trends within larger market moves. The indicator’s ability to adapt quickly to changing conditions makes it a valuable tool for scalpers looking to execute numerous trades in a short period, capturing profits from minor price fluctuations while avoiding prolonged exposure.
5. **Algorithmic Traders:**
- Algorithmic traders can incorporate the **Uptrick** indicator into automated trading systems. The precise crossover signals combined with RSI confirmation provide clear and actionable rules that can be coded into algorithms. The adaptive nature of the indicator ensures that it can be used across different market conditions and timeframes, making it a versatile component of algorithmic strategies.

█ Strategy, How It Works: Detailed Explanation
The FlexiMA Variance Tracker, developed by PresentTrading, stands at the forefront of trading strategies, distinguished by its adaptive and multifaceted approach to market analysis. This strategy intricately weaves various technical elements to construct a comprehensive trading logic. Here's an in-depth professional breakdown:
🔶Foundation on Variable-Length Moving Averages:
Central to this strategy is the concept of variable-length Moving Averages (MAs). Unlike traditional MAs with a fixed period, this strategy dynamically adjusts the length of the MA based on a starting factor and an incremental factor. This approach allows the strategy to adapt to market volatility and trend strength more effectively.
Each MA iteration offers a distinct temporal perspective, capturing short-term price movements to long-term trends. This aggregation of various time frames provides a richer and more nuanced market analysis, essential for making informed trading decisions.
🔶Deviation Analysis and Normalization:
The strategy calculates deviations of the price (or the chosen indicator source) from each of these MAs. These deviations are pivotal in identifying the immediate market direction relative to the average trend captured by each MA.
To standardize these deviations for comparability, they undergo a normalization process. The choice of normalization method (Max-Min or Absolute Sum) can significantly influence the interpretation of market conditions, offering distinct insights into price movements and trend strength.
🔹Normalization: Absolute Sum
🔶Composite Oscillator Construction:
A composite oscillator is derived from the median of these normalized deviations. The median serves as a balanced and robust central trend indicator, minimizing the impact of outliers and market noise.
Additionally, the standard deviation of these deviations is computed, providing a measure of market volatility. This volatility indicator is crucial for assessing market risk and can guide traders in setting appropriate stop-loss and take-profit levels.
🔶Integration with SuperTrend Indicator:
The FlexiMA strategy integrates the SuperTrend indicator, renowned for its effectiveness in identifying trend direction and reversals. The SuperTrend's incorporation enhances the strategy's ability to filter out false signals and confirm genuine market trends.
* The SuperTrend Toolkit is made by @QuantiLuxe
This combination of the variable-length MA oscillator with the SuperTrend indicator forms a potent duo, offering traders a dual-confirmation mechanism for trade signals.
🔹Supertrend's incorporation
🔶Strategic Trade Signal Generation:
Trade signals are generated when there is a confluence between the composite oscillator and the SuperTrend indicator. For example, a long position signal might be considered when the oscillator suggests an uptrend, and the SuperTrend flips to bullish.
The strategy's parameters are fully customizable, enabling traders to tailor the signal generation process to their specific trading style, risk tolerance, and market conditions.
█ Usage
To effectively employ the FlexiMA Variance Tracker strategy:
Traders should set their desired trade direction and fine-tune the starting and increment factors according to their market analysis and risk tolerance.

ROCkin RSIROCkin RSI Indicator
Overview
The "ROCkin RSI" indicator combines the traditional Relative Strength Index (RSI) with an innovative approach using the Rate of Change (ROC) to offer a new way to visualize and interpret market momentum. By averaging the slope of the RSI over time and allowing for different types of moving averages, this indicator aims to help traders identify trending and reversal patterns more efficiently.
Features
RSI Calculations: The core of the indicator is based on the standard Relative Strength Index, an oscillator that measures the speed and change of price movements. The RSI oscillates between 0 and 100 and is usually used to identify overbought or oversold conditions.
Rate of Change of Price (ROC): Instead of simply plotting the RSI, this indicator calculates the Rate of Change of the closing price, essentially looking at how steep the RSI curve is over a user-defined period.
Smoothing: To reduce noise and make the curve smoother, the slope of the RSI is averaged over a given number of periods, which can either be a Simple Moving Average (SMA) or an Exponential Moving Average (EMA).
Column Plots: The smoothed RSI slope is plotted as columns, where the color of the columns (red or green) indicates whether the slope is positive or negative.
Optional RSI Moving Average: The indicator also offers an optional feature to plot a moving average of the smoothed RSI slope, aiding in trend identification.
Inputs
RSI Periods: The number of periods used to calculate the RSI.
Slope Periods: The number of periods used for calculating the Rate of Change.
Average Periods: The number of periods used for smoothing the RSI slope.
Type of Average: Choose between EMA (Exponential Moving Average) and SMA (Simple Moving Average) for smoothing.
Show RSI Moving Average: Toggle this to either show or hide the moving average of the smoothed RSI slope.
Moving Average Period: The period used for calculating the RSI Moving Average.
Moving Average Type: Choose between EMA and SMA for the RSI Moving Average.
How to Interpret
Positive Slope (Red Columns): Indicates upward momentum in the RSI, which may imply a bullish trend.
Negative Slope (Green Columns): Indicates downward momentum in the RSI, suggesting a possible bearish trend.
RSI Moving Average: Acts as a signal line to confirm the trend. When the smoothed RSI slope is above its moving average, it confirms the bullish trend, and when it's below, it confirms the bearish trend.
Practical Use
Entry/Exit Signals: Consider entering a long position when the columns of the green histogram cross above the moving average. Conversely, consider entering a short position when the columns cross under when red. The higher the columns the more likely the trade will be a good one.
Fine-Tuning and Optimization
It's crucial to understand that the default settings might not be optimal for all trading scenarios. The effectiveness of the ROCkin RSI indicator can vary based on the asset you're trading, the market conditions, and your trading style. Therefore, it's highly recommended to play with the settings and study the historical performance on the chart to grasp how the indicator behaves.
By experimenting with different periods for RSI, the Rate of Change, and the moving averages, you can tailor the indicator to better suit your needs.

RSI Dynamic Bands█ OVERVIEW
The "RSI Dynamic Bands" indicator is a variant of the Relative Strength Index (RSI) oscillator that brings its signals directly onto the price chart. It displays dynamic bands around the price, adjusted based on RSI levels, enabling easy identification of potential overbought or oversold conditions. The indicator also integrates a multi-timeframe RSI table, facilitating the analysis of trend strength across different timeframes.
█ CONCEPTS
The "RSI Dynamic Bands" indicator is designed to simplify the interpretation of price levels in the context of support and resistance zones, which can be correlated with other technical indicators and RSI values. Since the price itself does not display RSI values, a table showing RSI for four selected timeframes has been added, allowing traders to quickly assess trend strength across different time intervals. The most effective approach is to combine the indicator with other technical analysis tools, such as Fibonacci levels or pivot points, to confirm signals when the price approaches the bands and RSI values indicate a potential reversal.
Band Calculation
The bands are calculated based on the current closing price and RSI values, incorporating dynamic scaling to better adapt to market conditions. The formulas for the bands are as follows:
• Upper Band: close + (rsiUpper - rsi) * scaleFactor, where rsiUpper is the upper RSI level (default: 70), and scaleFactor accounts for market volatility.
• Lower Band: close + (rsiLower - rsi) * scaleFactor, where rsiLower is the lower RSI level (default: 30).
• Midline: The arithmetic average of the upper and lower bands: (upperBand + lowerBand) / 2.
Why Scaling? Without scaling, the bands would be chaotic and jagged, making them difficult to interpret. Scaling smooths the bands, making them wider during periods of high volatility and narrower during consolidation, better reflecting potential support and resistance levels.
Indicator Features
• Dynamic Price Bands: The bands adapt to market conditions, facilitating the identification of key price levels.
• Multi-Timeframe RSI Table: Displays RSI values for four selected timeframes (default: 15m, 1h, 4h, Daily), enabling comparison of trend strength across different perspectives.
• Style Customization: Users can adjust band colors, line thickness, and toggle the visibility of bands, fills, and the table.
How to Set Up the Indicator
1 — Add the "RSI Dynamic Bands" indicator to your TradingView chart.
2 — Configure parameters in the settings, such as RSI length, upper/lower levels, and scaling multiplier, to match your trading style.
3 — Enable or disable the display of bands, fills, or the RSI table based on your needs.

HOW TO USE
Add the indicator to your chart, configure the parameters, and observe price interactions with the bands to identify potential entry and exit points. The RSI table allows you to compare RSI values across different timeframes, aiding in trading decisions. The most effective approach is to combine the indicator with other technical analysis tools, such as Fibonacci levels or pivot points, to confirm signals when the price approaches the bands and RSI values indicate a potential reversal.
Trading Strategies:
• Scalping: Use lower timeframes (e.g., 5m, 15m) in the RSI table to quickly identify short-term lows and highs. Wait for the price to approach the lower band in the RSI oversold zone, with RSI on lower timeframes starting to rise, and other tools, such as Fibonacci levels (e.g., 38.2%) or pivot points, confirming support.
• Medium-Term Trading: Focus on 1h and 4h timeframes. Look for confirmation of a low on a lower timeframe (e.g., 1h), where RSI indicates oversold conditions or starts rising, then check if RSI on a higher timeframe (e.g., 4h) confirms the trend. Confirmation from other tools, such as a Fibonacci level (e.g., 50%) or pivot point near the bands, strengthens the signal.
• Long-Term Trading: Use Daily and higher timeframes (e.g., Weekly). Wait for all relevant timeframes to confirm a low (e.g., RSI near oversold and price at the lower band), with lower timeframes (e.g., 4h) showing rising RSI. Other tools, such as Fibonacci levels (e.g., 61.8%) or pivot points near the bands, can further confirm a trend reversal signal.
US Macro Cycle (Z-Score Model)US Macro Cycle (Z-Score Model)
This indicator tracks the US economic cycle in real time using a weighted composite of seven macro and market-based indicators, each converted into a rolling Z-score for comparability. The model identifies the current phase of the cycle — Expansion, Peak, Contraction, or Recovery — and suggests sector tilts based on historical performance in each phase.
Core Components:
Yield Curve (10y–2y): Positive & steepening = growth; inverted = slowdown risk.
Credit Spreads (HYG/LQD): Tightening = risk-on; widening = risk-off.
Sector Leadership (Cyclicals vs. Defensives): Measures market leadership regime.

Multi TF Oscillators Screener [TradingFinder] RSI / ATR / Stoch🔵 Introduction
The oscillator screener is designed to simplify multi-timeframe analysis by allowing traders and analysts to monitor one or multiple symbols across their preferred timeframes—all at the same time. Users can track a single symbol through various timeframes simultaneously or follow multiple symbols in selected intervals. This flexibility makes the tool highly effective for analyzing diverse markets concurrently.
At the core of this screener lie two essential oscillators: RSI (Relative Strength Index) and the Stochastic Oscillator. The RSI measures the speed and magnitude of recent price movements and helps identify overbought or oversold conditions.
It's one of the most reliable indicators for spotting potential reversals. The Stochastic Oscillator, on the other hand, compares the current price to recent highs and lows to detect momentum strength and potential trend shifts. It’s especially effective in identifying divergences and short-term reversal signals.
In addition to these two primary indicators, the screener also displays helpful supplementary data such as the dominant candlestick type (Bullish, Bearish, or Doji), market volatility indicators like ATR and TR, and the four key OHLC prices (Open, High, Low, Close) for each symbol and timeframe. This combination of data gives users a comprehensive technical view and allows for quick, side-by-side comparison of symbols and timeframes.
🔵 How to Use
This tool is built for users who want to view the behavior of a single symbol across several timeframes simultaneously. Instead of jumping between charts, users can quickly grasp the state of a symbol like gold or Bitcoin across the 15-minute, 1-hour, and daily timeframes at a glance. This is particularly useful for traders who rely on multi-timeframe confirmation to strengthen their analysis and decision-making.
The tool also supports simultaneous monitoring of multiple symbols. Users can select and track various assets based on the timeframes that matter most to them. For example, if you’re looking for entry opportunities, the screener allows you to compare setups across several markets side by side—making it easier to choose the most favorable trade. Whether you’re a scalper focused on low timeframes or a swing trader using higher ones, the tool adapts to your workflow.
The screener utilizes the widely-used RSI indicator, which ranges from 0 to 100 and highlights market exhaustion levels. Readings above 70 typically indicate potential pullbacks, while values below 30 may suggest bullish reversals. Viewing RSI across timeframes can reveal meaningful divergences or alignments that improve signal quality.
Another key indicator in the screener is the Stochastic Oscillator, which analyzes the closing price relative to its recent high-low range. When the %K and %D lines converge and cross within the overbought or oversold zones, it often signals a momentum reversal. This oscillator is especially responsive in lower timeframes, making it ideal for spotting quick entries or exits.
Beyond these oscillators, the table includes other valuable data such as candlestick type (bullish, bearish, or doji), volatility measures like ATR and TR, and complete OHLC pricing. This layered approach helps users understand both market momentum and structure at a glance.
Ultimately, this screener allows analysts and traders to gain a full market overview with just one look—empowering faster, more informed, and lower-risk decision-making. It not only saves time but also enhances the precision and clarity of technical analysis.

In summary, this screener enables traders to gain a clear, high-level view of various markets in seconds and make quicker, smarter, and lower-risk decisions. It saves time, streamlines analysis, and boosts overall efficiency and confidence in trading strategies.
Candle Count RSI📈 Candle Count RSI — A Dual-Perspective Momentum Engine
The Candle Count RSI is a custom-built momentum oscillator that expands on the classic Relative Strength Index (RSI) by introducing a directional-only variant that tracks the frequency of bullish or bearish closes, rather than price magnitude. It gives traders a second lens through which to evaluate momentum, trend conviction, and subtle divergences—often invisible to traditional price-based RSI.
💡 What Makes It Unique?
While the standard RSI is sensitive to the size of price changes, the Candle Count RSI is magnitude-blind. It counts candle closes above/below open over a lookback period, generating a purer signal of directional consistency. To enhance signal fidelity, it includes a streak amplifier, dynamically weighting extended runs of green or red candles to reflect intensity of market bias—without introducing artificial price sensitivity.
This dual-RSI approach allows for:
- Divergence detection between directional bias and price magnitude.
- Smoother trend confirmation in choppy markets.
- Cleaner visual cues using dynamic glow and background logic.
📐 How Standard RSI Actually Works (Not What You Think)
RSI doesn’t just check if price went up or down over a span—it checks each individual candle and tracks whether it closed higher or lower than the one before. Here's how it works under the hood:
1.) For each bar, it calculates the change from the previous close.
2.) It separates those changes into gains (upward moves) and losses (downward moves).
3.) Then it computes a smoothed average of those gains and losses (usually using an RMA).
4.) It calculates the Relative Strength (RS) as:
RS = AvgGain / AvgLoss
5.) Finally, it plugs that into the RSI formula:
RSI = 100 - (100 / (1 + RS))
⚖️ What Does the 50 Line Mean?
- The RSI scale runs from 0 to 100, but 50 is the true neutral zone:
- RSI > 50 means average gains outweigh average losses over the period.
- RSI < 50 means losses dominate.
- RSI ≈ 50? The market is balanced—momentum is indecisive, no clear trend bias.
- This makes 50 a powerful midline for trend filters, directional bias tools, and divergence detection—especially when paired with alternative RSI logic like Candle Count RSI.
🔧 Inputs and Customization
- Everything is fully modular and customizable:
🧠 Core Settings
- RSI Length: Used for both the standard RSI and Candle Count RSI.
📉 Standard RSI
- Classic RSI calculation based on price changes.
- Optional WMA smoothing to reduce noise.
- Glow effect toggle with custom intensity.
🕯 Candle Count RSI
- Computes RSI using only the count of up/down candles.
- Optional smoothing for stability.
- Amplifies streaks (e.g., multiple consecutive bullish candles increase strength).
- Glow effect toggle with adjustable strength.
🎇 Glow Visuals
- Background glow (subpane and/or main chart).
- Fades based on RSI distance from the 50 midpoint.
- Independent color settings for bull and bear bias.
🧬 Divergence Zones
- Detects when Candle RSI and Standard RSI diverge.
- Highlights:
- Bullish Divergence: Candle RSI > 50, Standard RSI < threshold.
- Bearish Divergence: Candle RSI < 50, Standard RSI > threshold.
- Background fill optionally shown in subpane and/or main chart.
📊 Directional Histogram
- MACD-style histogram showing the difference between the two RSI lines.
- Color-coded based on directional agreement:
- Both rising → green.
- Both falling → red.
- Conflict → yellow.
🧠 Under the Hood — How It Works
🔹 Standard RSI
- Classic ta.rsi() applied to close prices, optionally WMA-smoothed.
🔹 Candle Count RSI (CCR)
- Counts how many candles closed up/down over the period.
- Computes a magnitude-free RSI from these counts.
- Applies a streak-based multiplier to exaggerate trend strength during consecutive green/red runs.
- Optionally smoothed with WMA to create a clean signal line.
- This makes CCR ideal for detecting true directional bias without being faked out by volatile price spikes.
🔹 Divergence Logic
- When Candle RSI and Standard RSI disagree strongly across defined thresholds, background fills highlight early signs of momentum decay or hidden accumulation/distribution.
🔹 Glow Logic
- Glow zones are controlled by a master toggle and drawn with dynamic transparency:
- Further from 50 = stronger conviction = darker glow.
- Shows up in subpane and/or main chart depending on user preference.
📷 Suggested Use Case / Visual Setup
- Use in conjunction with your primary price action system.
- Watch for divergences between the Candle Count RSI and Standard RSI for early trend reversals.
- Use glow bias zones on the main chart to get subconscious directional cues during fast scalping.
- Histogram helps you confirm when both RSI variants agree—useful during strong trending conditions.
🛠️ Tip for Traders
- This tool isn’t trying to “predict” price. It’s designed to visualize hidden market psychology—when buyers are showing up with consistent pressure, or when momentum has a disconnect between conviction and magnitude. Use this to filter entries, spot weak rallies, or sense when a trend is about to break down.
⚠️ WARNING
- Not for use with Heikin Ashi, Renko, etc.).
🧠 Summary
Candle Count RSI is not just another mashup—it's a precision-built, dual-perspective oscillator that captures directional conviction using real candle behavior. Whether you're scalping intraday or swing trading momentum, this script helps clarify trend integrity and exposes hidden weaknesses with elegance and clarity.

Price Lag Factor (PLF)📊 Price Lag Factor (PLF) for Crypto Traders: A Comprehensive Breakdown
The Price Lag Factor (PLF) is a momentum indicator designed to identify overextended price movements and gauge market momentum. It is particularly optimized for the crypto market, which is known for its high volatility and rapid trend shifts.
🔎 What is the Price Lag Factor (PLF)?
The PLF measures the difference between long-term and short-term price momentum and scales it dynamically based on recent volatility. This helps traders identify when the market might be overbought or oversold while filtering out noise.
The formula used in the PLF calculation is:
PLF = (Z-Long - Z-Short) / Stdev(PLF)
Where:
Z-long: Z-score of the long-term moving average (50-period by default).
Z-short: Z-score of the short-term moving average (14-period by default).
Stdev(PLF): Standard deviation of the PLF over a longer period (50-period by default).
🧠 How to Interpret the PLF:
1. Trend Direction:
Positive PLF (Green Bars): Indicates bullish momentum. The long-term trend is up, and short-term movements are confirming it.
Negative PLF (Red Bars): Indicates bearish momentum. The long-term trend is down, and short-term movements are consistent with it.
2. Momentum Strength:
PLF near Zero (±0.5): Low momentum; trend direction is not strong.
PLF between ±1 and ±2: Moderate momentum, indicating that the market is moving with strength but not in an overextended state.
PLF beyond ±2: High momentum (overbought/oversold), indicating potential trend exhaustion and a possible reversal.
📈 Trading Strategies:
1. Trend Following:
Bullish Signal:
Enter long when PLF crosses above 0 and remains green.
Confirm with other indicators like RSI or MACD to reduce false signals.
Bearish Signal:
Enter short when PLF crosses below 0 and remains red.
Use trend confirmation (e.g., moving average crossover) for better accuracy.
2. Reversal Trading:
Overbought Signal:
If PLF rises above +2, look for signs of bearish divergence or a reversal pattern to consider a short entry.
Oversold Signal:
If PLF falls below -2, watch for bullish divergence or a support bounce to consider a long entry.
3. Momentum Divergence:
Bullish Divergence:
Price makes a lower low while PLF makes a higher low.
Indicates weakening bearish momentum and a potential bullish reversal.
Bearish Divergence:
Price makes a higher high while PLF makes a lower high.
Signals weakening bullish momentum and a potential bearish reversal.
💡 Best Practices:
Combine with Volume:
Volume spikes during high PLF readings can confirm trend continuation.
Low volume during PLF extremes may hint at false breakouts.
Watch for Extreme Levels:
PLF beyond ±2 suggests overextended price action. Use caution when entering new positions.
Confirm with Other Indicators:
Use with Relative Strength Index (RSI) or Bollinger Bands to get a better sense of overbought/oversold conditions.
Overlay with a moving average to gauge trend consistency.
🚀 Why the PLF Works for Crypto:
Crypto markets are highly volatile and prone to rapid trend changes. The PLF's adaptive scaling ensures it remains relevant regardless of market conditions.
It highlights momentum shifts more accurately than static indicators because it accounts for changing volatility in its calculation.
🚨 Disclaimer for Traders Using the Price Lag Factor (PLF) Indicator:
The Price Lag Factor (PLF) indicator is designed as a technical analysis tool to gauge momentum and identify potential overbought or oversold conditions. However, it should not be relied upon as a sole decision-making factor for trading or investing.
Important Points to Consider:
Market Risk: Trading cryptocurrencies and other financial assets involves significant risk. The PLF may not accurately predict future price movements, especially during unexpected market events.
Indicator Limitations: No technical indicator, including the PLF, is infallible. False signals can occur, particularly in low-volume or highly volatile conditions.
Supplementary Analysis: Always combine PLF insights with other technical indicators, fundamental analysis, and risk management strategies to make informed decisions.
Personal Judgment: Traders should use their own discretion when interpreting PLF signals and never trade based solely on this indicator.
No Guarantees: The PLF is designed for educational and informational purposes only. Past performance is not indicative of future results.
Always perform thorough research and consider consulting with a professional financial advisor before making any trading decisions.

RSI_Heikinashi📜 Title:
Heikin-Ashi RSI Candle Plot with Multi-Timeframe Analysis and EMA Overlay
📖 Full Description:
This is an original custom indicator that transforms the traditional Relative Strength Index (RSI) into a Heikin-Ashi (HA) candle representation, allowing traders to visualize RSI trends with greater clarity, less noise, and multi-timeframe perspective.
🛠️ Core Concept and Original Method:
Rather than plotting a single RSI line, this script recalculates RSI into a Heikin-Ashi candle format, using a double EMA smoothing method on the RSI data itself.
Here's how the transformation works:
RSI Calculation:
RSI is computed traditionally using Wilder's Moving Average (RMA) for smoothing gains and losses.
The RSI period and price source are fully customizable (default length = 28, source = close).
Heikin-Ashi Style Smoothing (applied to RSI):
The HA Close is calculated as the EMA of the average between the current RSI and previous HA Close.
The HA Open is calculated as the EMA of the average between the previous HA Open and the current HA Close.
The HA High and HA Low are dynamically calculated based on the maximum/minimum values of the current RSI, HA Open, and HA Close.
Smoothing is done via 5-period EMA, which adds a unique layer of trend smoothing without traditional price-based HA calculation.
Multi-Timeframe Comparison:
In addition to plotting the chart timeframe HA RSI, the indicator retrieves the 1-hour timeframe HA RSI using request.security.
This allows traders to align trades with higher timeframe RSI trends, a powerful technique for multi-timeframe confirmation.
50 EMA Overlay:
A 50-period Exponential Moving Average (EMA) is plotted over both the chart timeframe HA RSI and the 1-hour HA RSI.
EMA acts as a trend filter or dynamic support/resistance for RSI behavior.
RSI Bands and Visual Aids:
Standard RSI bands at 70 (Overbought), 50 (Midline), and 30 (Oversold) are plotted.
A shaded background between the 30–70 levels helps highlight RSI range-bound movements versus breakout momentum.
🔥 Why this script is original and useful:
Unique Application:
This is not a simple RSI plot or standard Heikin-Ashi candle — it is a specialized smoothing method applied directly to RSI values for a clearer, noise-reduced momentum reading.
Multi-Timeframe Advantage:
Unlike typical RSI indicators, it includes a 1-hour timeframe comparison alongside the chart timeframe, improving decision-making across intraday and swing strategies.
Advanced Smoothing Logic:
Double EMA smoothing of RSI and HA-style recalculations offer a much smoother signal than traditional RSI or basic RSI/EMA crossovers.
Visualized Trend Strength:
Using colored candles instead of just a line enhances readability and gives an intuitive sense of momentum direction, strength, and possible reversals.
Fully Customizable:
Traders can adjust the RSI period and source depending on asset volatility or timeframe preferences.
📋 How to Use:
Look for HA RSI candles color changes for early momentum shifts.
Use the 50 EMA crossovers on HA RSI to confirm larger trend changes.
Compare chart timeframe vs 1H timeframe HA RSI for stronger signal alignment.
Watch for overbought/oversold breaks beyond the 70/30 bands for trade entries or exits.
⚙️ Inputs:
RSI Length (Default: 28)
RSI Source (Default: Close)
📢 Important Note:
This script is originally conceptualized and custom-built.
It is not a mashup of existing open-source indicators and introduces a new smoothing technique for RSI visualization.
