TradeTrackerv2Library "TradeTrackerv2"
This library can be used to track (hypothetical) trades on the chart. Enter the Open, SL, and TP prices (or TP in R to have it calculated) and then call Trade.TrackTrade(barIndex). Keep track of your trades in an array and then simply call TradeTracker.UpdateAllTrades(close) to update all trades based on the current close price.
How to use:
1. Import the library, as always. I'm assuming the alias of "Tracker" below.
2. The Type Trade is exported, so generate a Trade object like newTrade = Tracker.Trade.new() .
3. Set the values for Open, SL, and TP. TP can be set either by price or by R, which will calculate the R based on the Open->SL range:
newTrade.priceOpen = 1.0
newTrade.priceSl = 0.5
newTrade.priceTp = 2.0
-- or in place of the third line above --
newTrade.rTp = 2
4. On each interval you want to update (whether that's per tick/close or on each bar), call trades.UpdateAllTrades(close) . This snippet assumes you have an array named trades (var trades = array.new()) .
In future updates, more customization options will be created. This is the initial prototype.

How To Use
For Day Traders:
Check the "Either Level" percentage - if 90%+, at least one level will likely be touched
Review time bucket statistics - most touches happen 9:30-10:00 AM
Monitor "Both Levels" rate - typically only 20-30%, meaning round trips are rare
Use range percentile to gauge if expansion or mean reversion is likely
For Scalpers:
Enable touch markers to see exact level tests
Use proximity alerts to prepare for potential bounces
Monitor first touch times - early touches often lead to continuations
Check rejection signals for quick reversal trades
For Swing Position Sizing:
Use historical touch rates to assess probability of level tests

Statistics Explained
Touch Rates:
Percentage of days where level was touched during RTH
Based only on FIRST touch per day (not multiple re-tests)
Binary metric: Yes/No for each day
Timing Stats:
All based on timestamp of FIRST touch each day
Average, Earliest, Latest provide distribution context
Time buckets show concentration of first touches
Range Metrics:
Current range compared to historical average
Percentile shows where today ranks (0-100%)
Min/Max provide extreme boundaries from history
Important Notes
First Touch Only: All statistics track only the first time a level is touched each day, not subsequent re-tests
RTH Focus: Touch tracking occurs only during regular trading hours (9:30 AM-4:00 PM EST)
Data Accumulation: Historical statistics build over time as indicator runs; requires specified lookback period to populate
Chart Timeframe: Works on any timeframe but recommended 3-5 minute charts for best premarket level precision
Memory Reset: Each new premarket session resets tracking for fresh daily analysis
Best Practices
Use 60-100 day lookback for statistical significance
Combine high touch rates (80%+) with time bucket data for highest probability setups
Small ranges (< 50% of average) often lead to expansion moves
Large ranges (> 150% of average) often consolidate or mean-revert
First 30 minutes typically contains 50%+ of all level touches
After 12:00 PM, probability of untouched levels being hit drops significantly
Performance Considerations
Optimized for real-time calculation with minimal lag
Uses efficient array management for historical data
Table updates only on bar close for performance
Maximum lookback of 250 days to prevent memory issues

PIPSTA - ORB# PIPSTA - ORB - Complete Explanation
This is a sophisticated **Opening Range Breakout (ORB)** indicator for TradingView that tracks price movements during the first minutes of a trading session and identifies breakout opportunities.
---
## 🎯 Core Concept: What is ORB?
**Opening Range Breakout** is a trading strategy based on the idea that the first minutes of trading establish key support/resistance levels. When price breaks above (bullish) or below (bearish) these levels with conviction, it often signals a strong directional move for the rest of the session.
---
## 📊 Key Features
### 1. **Multi-Stage ORB Tracking**
The indicator tracks **4 different opening ranges simultaneously**:
- **ORB 5**: First 5 minutes (fastest, most volatile)
- **ORB 15**: First 15 minutes (balanced signals)
- **ORB 30**: First 30 minutes (more reliable)
- **ORB 60**: First 60 minutes (slowest, most confirmed)
Each stage establishes a **High** and **Low** level. The active ORB (usually the largest completed one) is used for breakout detection.
---
### 2. **Breakout Detection System**
**How it works:**
- Monitors when price closes **above ORB High** (bullish breakout) or **below ORB Low** (bearish breakout)
- Requires a **buffer** (default 0.2%) to filter false breakouts
- Tracks **cycles**: Breakout → Retest → Re-breakout sequences
- Shows labels on chart marking breakouts with cycle numbers
**Signal Modes:**
- **First Only**: Shows only the first breakout in each direction per day
- **Track Cycles**: Shows multiple breakouts as price oscillates (up to configurable max cycles)
---
### 3. **Advanced Filtering**
The indicator includes **optional filters** to improve signal quality:
#### **Volume Filter**
- Compares current volume to moving average
- Requires volume ≥ X multiplier (default 1.5×) for breakout confirmation
- **Strong Volume Override**: If volume exceeds threshold (default 2×), bypasses other filters
#### **Trend Filter**
- Multiple methods: VWAP, EMA, SuperTrend, or combinations
- Only shows breakouts **aligned with the trend**
- Prevents counter-trend trades with lower success rates
#### **FVG (Fair Value Gap) Filter**
- Detects price gaps from strong momentum moves
- Requires breakout to occur near a FVG for confirmation
- Shows FVG boxes on chart (optional)
#### **Higher Timeframe (HTF) Bias**
- Checks daily/4H/weekly trend before taking breakouts
- Displays HTF bias in dashboard (✅ Aligned / ⚠️ Counter-Trend)
- Doesn't block signals—just warns you
---
### 4. **Retest & Failed Break Detection**
**Retest Logic:**
- After breakout, if price returns to ORB level → shows "🔁 RETEST" label
- Tracks minimum distance traveled (default 0.5%) to avoid labeling tiny bounces
- Useful for re-entry opportunities
**Failed Breaks:**
- If price breaks out but returns inside range within X bars (default 5) → marks as "⚠️ FAILED BREAK"
- Helps identify weak breakouts quickly
- Adjusts cycle count accordingly
---
### 5. **Risk Management & Position Sizing**
#### **Automatic Target/Stop Calculation**
**Stop Loss Methods:**
1. **Smart Adaptive** (Recommended): Adjusts to volatility automatically
2. **ATR-Based**: Uses Average True Range with multiplier
3. **ORB %**: Fixed percentage beyond ORB level
4. **Swing**: Places at recent swing high/low
5. **% Based**: Simple percentage from entry
**Take Profit Targets:**
- **TP1** (1R): Conservative target, 1:1 risk/reward
- **TP1.5** (1.5R): Intermediate target
- **TP2** (2R): Standard target for most traders ⭐
- **TP3** (3R): Extended target for strong trends
*R = Risk units (1R = distance from entry to stop loss)*
#### **Position Sizing Calculator**
Automatically calculates:
- **Max shares** to buy based on your risk tolerance
- **Position value** in dollars
- **Risk amount** (max loss if SL hit)
- **Risk/Reward ratio** for the trade
**Risk Modes:**
- **$ Amount**: Risk fixed dollar amount per trade (e.g., $150)
- **% of Account**: Risk percentage of total account (e.g., 1% of $25,000 = $250)
**Safety Limits:**
- Max position size % of account (prevents over-leverage)
- Multi-currency support with live exchange rates
---
### 6. **Real-Time Dashboard**
Displays comprehensive trade information:
**Session Status:**
- Market open/closed status
- Session type (Regular/Extended Hours/Pre-Market)
- Current ORB stage and completion status
**ORB Metrics:**

## 🎵 Workflow Example
1. **Market opens at 09:30**
2. **First 5 minutes**: ORB5 builds (tracks High/Low)
3. **At 09:35**: ORB5 completes → becomes active
4. **At 09:45**: ORB15 completes → becomes active (takes priority)
5. **Price action**: Close above ORB15 High + buffer → **BREAKOUT UP**
6. **Indicator displays**:
- 🔼 BREAKOUT UP label on chart
- Entry line at ORB High
- TP1/TP2/TP3 lines calculated
- SL line below entry
- Dashboard shows trade parameters
- Position size calculated
7. **Price returns to ORB**: Shows 🔁 RETEST label
8. **If TP2 hit**: Lines freeze, dashboard updates, session stats increment
---
## ⚠️ Important Notes
### **Limitations:**
- May produce false signals in choppy/ranging markets
- Best on **5-minute charts** during **regular trading hours**
- Requires **liquid stocks** (>1M daily volume)
- Not suitable for all market conditions
### **Best Practices:**
- **Paper trade first** to understand signals
- Use proper risk management (1-2% risk per trade)
- Combine with overall market analysis
- Recommended: Track Cycles mode with Volume + Trend filters
### **Timezone Fix:**
If ORB appears 1 hour off:
- Right-click chart → Settings → Symbol → Timezone
- Set to exchange timezone (e.g., America/New_York for NYSE)

This indicator is a **complete ORB trading system** with institutional-grade risk management, multi-filter confirmation, and comprehensive position sizing—all automated and visualized in real-time. Perfect for day traders who want a systematic approach to opening range breakouts.
Algorithm Predator - ML-liteAlgorithm Predator - ML-lite
This indicator combines four specialized trading agents with an adaptive multi-armed bandit selection system to identify high-probability trade setups. It is designed for swing and intraday traders who want systematic signal generation based on institutional order flow patterns , momentum exhaustion , liquidity dynamics , and statistical mean reversion .
Core Architecture
Why These Components Are Combined:
The script addresses a fundamental challenge in algorithmic trading: no single detection method works consistently across all market conditions. By deploying four independent agents and using reinforcement learning algorithms to select or blend their outputs, the system adapts to changing market regimes without manual intervention.
The Four Trading Agents
1. Spoofing Detector Agent 🎭
Detects iceberg orders through persistent volume at similar price levels over 5 bars
Identifies spoofing patterns via asymmetric wick analysis (wicks exceeding 60% of bar range with volume >1.8× average)
Monitors order clustering using simplified Hawkes process intensity tracking (exponential decay model)
Signal Logic: Contrarian—fades false breakouts caused by institutional manipulation
Best Markets: Consolidations, institutional trading windows, low-liquidity hours
2. Exhaustion Detector Agent ⚡
Calculates RSI divergence between price movement and momentum indicator over 5-bar window
Detects VWAP exhaustion (price at 2σ bands with declining volume)
Uses VPIN reversals (volume-based toxic flow dissipation) to identify momentum failure
Signal Logic: Counter-trend—enters when momentum extreme shows weakness
Best Markets: Trending markets reaching climax points, over-extended moves
3. Liquidity Void Detector Agent 💧
Measures Bollinger Band squeeze (width <60% of 50-period average)
Identifies stop hunts via 20-bar high/low penetration with immediate reversal and volume spike
Detects hidden liquidity absorption (volume >2× average with range <0.3× ATR)
Signal Logic: Breakout anticipation—enters after liquidity grab but before main move
Best Markets: Range-bound pre-breakout, volatility compression zones
4. Mean Reversion Agent 📊
Calculates price z-scores relative to 50-period SMA and standard deviation (triggers at ±2σ)
Implements Ornstein-Uhlenbeck process scoring (mean-reverting stochastic model)
Uses entropy analysis to detect algorithmic trading patterns (low entropy <0.25 = high predictability)
Signal Logic: Statistical reversion—enters when price deviates significantly from statistical equilibrium
Best Markets: Range-bound, low-volatility, algorithmically-dominated instruments
Adaptive Selection: Multi-Armed Bandit System
The script implements four reinforcement learning algorithms to dynamically select or blend agents based on performance:
Thompson Sampling (Default - Recommended):
Uses Bayesian inference with beta distributions (tracks alpha/beta parameters per agent)
Balances exploration (trying underused agents) vs. exploitation (using proven winners)
Each agent's win/loss history informs its selection probability
Lite Approximation: Uses pseudo-random sampling from price/volume noise instead of true random number generation
UCB1 (Upper Confidence Bound):
Calculates confidence intervals using: average_reward + sqrt(2 × ln(total_pulls) / agent_pulls)
Deterministic algorithm favoring agents with high uncertainty (potential upside)
More conservative than Thompson Sampling
Epsilon-Greedy:
Exploits best-performing agent (1-ε)% of the time
Explores randomly ε% of the time (default 10%, configurable 1-50%)
Simple, transparent, easily tuned via epsilon parameter
Gradient Bandit:
Uses softmax probability distribution over agent preference weights
Updates weights via gradient ascent based on rewards
Best for Blend mode where all agents contribute
Selection Modes:
Switch Mode: Uses only the selected agent's signal (clean, decisive)
Blend Mode: Combines all agents using exponentially weighted confidence scores controlled by temperature parameter (smooth, diversified)
Lock Agent Feature:
Optional manual override to force one specific agent
Useful after identifying which agent dominates your specific instrument
Only applies in Switch mode
Four choices: Spoofing Detector, Exhaustion Detector, Liquidity Void, Mean Reversion
Memory System
Dual-Layer Architecture:
Short-Term Memory: Stores last 20 trade outcomes per agent (configurable 10-50)
Long-Term Memory: Stores episode averages when short-term reaches transfer threshold (configurable 5-20 bars)
Memory Boost Mechanism: Recent performance modulates agent scores by up to ±20%
Episode Transfer: When an agent accumulates sufficient results, averages are condensed into long-term storage
Persistence: Manual restoration of learned parameters via input fields (alpha, beta, weights, microstructure thresholds)
How Memory Works:
Agent generates signal → outcome tracked after 8 bars (performance horizon)
Result stored in short-term memory (win = 1.0, loss = 0.0)
Short-term average influences agent's future scores (positive feedback loop)
After threshold met (default 10 results), episode averaged into long-term storage
Long-term patterns (weighted 30%) + short-term patterns (weighted 70%) = total memory boost
Market Microstructure Analysis
These advanced metrics quantify institutional order flow dynamics:
Order Flow Toxicity (Simplified VPIN):
Measures buy/sell volume imbalance over 20 bars: |buy_vol - sell_vol| / (buy_vol + sell_vol)
Detects informed trading activity (institutional players with non-public information)
Values >0.4 indicate "toxic flow" (informed traders active)
Lite Approximation: Uses simple open/close heuristic instead of tick-by-tick trade classification
Price Impact Analysis (Simplified Kyle's Lambda):
Measures market impact efficiency: |price_change_10| / sqrt(volume_sum_10)
Low values = large orders with minimal price impact ( stealth accumulation )
High values = retail-dominated moves with high slippage
Lite Approximation: Uses simplified denominator instead of regression-based signed order flow
Market Randomness (Entropy Analysis):
Counts unique price changes over 20 bars / 20
Measures market predictability
High entropy (>0.6) = human-driven, chaotic price action
Low entropy (<0.25) = algorithmic trading dominance (predictable patterns)
Lite Approximation: Simple ratio instead of true Shannon entropy H(X) = -Σ p(x)·log₂(p(x))
Order Clustering (Simplified Hawkes Process):
Tracks self-exciting event intensity (coordinated order activity)
Decays at 0.9× per bar, spikes +1.0 when volume >1.5× average
High intensity (>0.7) indicates clustering (potential spoofing/accumulation)
Lite Approximation: Simple exponential decay instead of full λ(t) = μ + Σ α·exp(-β(t-tᵢ)) with MLE
Signal Generation Process
Multi-Stage Validation:
Stage 1: Agent Scoring
Each agent calculates internal score based on its detection criteria
Scores must exceed agent-specific threshold (adjusted by sensitivity multiplier)
Agent outputs: Signal direction (+1/-1/0) and Confidence level (0.0-1.0)
Stage 2: Memory Boost
Agent scores multiplied by memory boost factor (0.8-1.2 based on recent performance)
Successful agents get amplified, failing agents get dampened
Stage 3: Bandit Selection/Blending
If Adaptive Mode ON:
Switch: Bandit selects single best agent, uses only its signal
Blend: All agents combined using softmax-weighted confidence scores
If Adaptive Mode OFF:
Traditional consensus voting with confidence-squared weighting
Signal fires when consensus exceeds threshold (default 70%)
Stage 4: Confirmation Filter
Raw signal must repeat for consecutive bars (default 3, configurable 2-4)
Minimum confidence threshold: 0.25 (25%) enforced regardless of mode
Trend alignment check: Long signals require trend_score ≥ -2, Short signals require trend_score ≤ 2
Stage 5: Cooldown Enforcement
Minimum bars between signals (default 10, configurable 5-15)
Prevents over-trading during choppy conditions
Stage 6: Performance Tracking
After 8 bars (performance horizon), signal outcome evaluated
Win = price moved in signal direction, Loss = price moved against
Results fed back into memory and bandit statistics

What Makes This Original
This script's originality lies in three key innovations:
1. Genuine Meta-Learning Framework:
Unlike traditional indicator mashups that simply display multiple signals, this implements authentic reinforcement learning (multi-armed bandits) to learn which detection method works best in current conditions. The Thompson Sampling implementation with beta distribution tracking (alpha for successes, beta for failures) is statistically rigorous and adapts continuously. This is not post-hoc optimization—it's real-time learning.
2. Episodic Memory Architecture with Transfer Learning:
The dual-layer memory system mimics human learning patterns:
Short-term memory captures recent performance (recency bias)
Long-term memory preserves historical patterns (experience)
Automatic transfer mechanism consolidates knowledge
Memory boost creates positive feedback loops (successful strategies become stronger)
This architecture allows the system to adapt without retraining , unlike static ML models that require batch updates.
3. Institutional Microstructure Integration:
Combines retail-focused technical analysis (RSI, Bollinger Bands, VWAP) with institutional-grade microstructure metrics (VPIN, Kyle's Lambda, Hawkes processes) typically found in academic finance literature and professional trading systems, not standard retail platforms. While simplified for Pine Script constraints, these metrics provide insight into informed vs. uninformed trading , a dimension entirely absent from traditional technical analysis.
Mashup Justification:
The four agents are combined specifically for risk diversification across failure modes:
Spoofing Detector: Prevents false breakout losses from manipulation
Exhaustion Detector: Prevents chasing extended trends into reversals
Liquidity Void: Exploits volatility compression (different regime than trending)
Mean Reversion: Provides mathematical anchoring when patterns fail
The bandit system ensures the optimal tool is automatically selected for each market situation, rather than requiring manual interpretation of conflicting signals.
Why "ML-lite"? Simplifications and Approximations
This is the "lite" version due to necessary simplifications for Pine Script execution:
1. Simplified VPIN Calculation:
Academic Implementation: True VPIN uses volume bucketing (fixed-volume bars) and tick-by-tick buy/sell classification via Lee-Ready algorithm or exchange-provided trade direction flags
This Implementation: 20-bar rolling window with simple open/close heuristic (close > open = buy volume)
Impact: May misclassify volume during ranging/choppy markets; works best in directional moves
2. Pseudo-Random Sampling:
Academic Implementation: Thompson Sampling requires true random number generation from beta distributions using inverse transform sampling or acceptance-rejection methods
This Implementation: Deterministic pseudo-randomness derived from price and volume decimal digits: (close × 100 - floor(close × 100)) + (volume % 100) / 100
Impact: Not cryptographically random; may have subtle biases in specific price ranges; provides sufficient variation for agent selection
3. Hawkes Process Approximation:
Academic Implementation: Full Hawkes process uses maximum likelihood estimation with exponential kernels: λ(t) = μ + Σ α·exp(-β(t-tᵢ)) fitted via iterative optimization
This Implementation: Simple exponential decay (0.9 multiplier) with binary event triggers (volume spike = event)
Impact: Captures self-exciting property but lacks parameter optimization; fixed decay rate may not suit all instruments
4. Kyle's Lambda Simplification:
Academic Implementation: Estimated via regression of price impact on signed order flow over multiple time intervals: Δp = λ × Δv + ε
This Implementation: Simplified ratio: price_change / sqrt(volume_sum) without proper signed order flow or regression
Impact: Provides directional indicator of impact but not true market depth measurement; no statistical confidence intervals
5. Entropy Calculation:
Academic Implementation: True Shannon entropy requires probability distribution: H(X) = -Σ p(x)·log₂(p(x)) where p(x) is probability of each price change magnitude
This Implementation: Simple ratio of unique price changes to total observations (variety measure)
Impact: Measures diversity but not true information entropy with probability weighting; less sensitive to distribution shape
6. Memory System Constraints:
Full ML Implementation: Neural networks with backpropagation, experience replay buffers (storing state-action-reward tuples), gradient descent optimization, and eligibility traces
This Implementation: Fixed-size array queues with simple averaging; no gradient-based learning, no state representation beyond raw scores
Impact: Cannot learn complex non-linear patterns; limited to linear performance tracking
7. Limited Feature Engineering:
Advanced Implementation: Dozens of engineered features, polynomial interactions (x², x³), dimensionality reduction (PCA, autoencoders), feature selection algorithms
This Implementation: Raw agent scores and basic market metrics (RSI, ATR, volume ratio); minimal transformation
Impact: May miss subtle cross-feature interactions; relies on agent-level intelligence rather than feature combinations
8. Single-Instrument Data:
Full Implementation: Multi-asset correlation analysis (sector ETFs, currency pairs, volatility indices like VIX), lead-lag relationships, risk-on/risk-off regimes
This Implementation: Only OHLCV data from displayed instrument
Impact: Cannot incorporate broader market context; vulnerable to correlated moves across assets
9. Fixed Performance Horizon:
Full Implementation: Adaptive horizon based on trade duration, volatility regime, or profit target achievement
This Implementation: Fixed 8-bar evaluation window
Impact: May evaluate too early in slow markets or too late in fast markets; one-size-fits-all approach
Performance Impact Summary:
These simplifications make the script:
✅ Faster: Executes in milliseconds vs. seconds (or minutes) for full academic implementations
✅ More Accessible: Runs on any TradingView plan without external data feeds, APIs, or compute servers
✅ More Transparent: All calculations visible in Pine Script (no black-box compiled models)
✅ Lower Resource Usage: <500 bars lookback, minimal memory footprint
⚠️ Less Precise: Approximations may reduce statistical edge by 5-15% vs. academic implementations
⚠️ Limited Scope: Cannot capture tick-level dynamics, multi-order-book interactions, or cross-asset flows
⚠️ Fixed Parameters: Some thresholds hardcoded rather than dynamically optimized
When to Upgrade to Full Implementation:
Consider professional Python/C++ versions with institutional data feeds if:
Trading with >$100K capital where precision differences materially impact returns
Operating in microsecond-competitive environments (HFT, market making)
Requiring regulatory-grade audit trails and reproducibility
Backtesting with tick-level precision for strategy validation
Need true real-time adaptation with neural network-based learning
For retail swing/day trading and position management, these approximations provide sufficient signal quality while maintaining usability, transparency, and accessibility. The core logic—multi-agent detection with adaptive selection—remains intact.
Technical Notes
All calculations use standard Pine Script built-in functions ( ta.ema, ta.atr, ta.rsi, ta.bb, ta.sma, ta.stdev, ta.vwap )
VPIN and Kyle's Lambda use simplified formulas optimized for OHLCV data (see "Lite" section above)
Thompson Sampling uses pseudo-random noise from price/volume decimal digits for beta distribution sampling
No repainting: All calculations use confirmed bar data (no forward-looking)
Maximum lookback: 500 bars (set via max_bars_back parameter)
Performance evaluation: 8-bar forward-looking window for reward calculation (clearly disclosed)
Confidence threshold: Minimum 0.25 (25%) enforced on all signals
Memory arrays: Dynamic sizing with FIFO queue management
Limitations and Disclaimers
Not Predictive: This indicator identifies patterns in historical data. It cannot predict future price movements with certainty.
Requires Human Judgment: Signals are entry triggers, not complete trading strategies. Must be confirmed with your own analysis, risk management rules, and market context.
Learning Period Required: The adaptive system requires 50-100 bars minimum to build statistically meaningful performance data for bandit algorithms.
Overfitting Risk: Restoring memory parameters from one market regime to a drastically different regime (e.g., low volatility to high volatility) may cause poor initial performance until system re-adapts.
Approximation Limitations: Simplified calculations (see "Lite" section) may underperform academic implementations by 5-15% in highly efficient markets.
No Guarantee of Profit: Past performance, whether backtested or live-traded, does not guarantee future performance. All trading involves risk of loss.
Forward-Looking Bias: Performance evaluation uses 8-bar forward window—this creates slight look-ahead for learning (though not for signals). Real-time performance may differ from indicator's internal statistics.
Single-Instrument Limitation: Does not account for correlations with related assets or broader market regime changes.
Recommended Settings
Timeframe: 15-minute to 4-hour charts (sufficient volatility for ATR-based stops; adequate bar volume for learning)
Assets: Liquid instruments with >100k daily volume (forex majors, large-cap stocks, BTC/ETH, major indices)
Not Recommended: Illiquid small-caps, penny stocks, low-volume altcoins (microstructure metrics unreliable)
Complementary Tools: Volume profile, order book depth, market breadth indicators, fundamental catalysts
Position Sizing: Risk no more than 1-2% of capital per signal using ATR-based stop-loss
Signal Filtering: Consider external confluence (support/resistance, trendlines, round numbers, session opens)
Start With: Balanced mode, Thompson Sampling, Blend mode, default agent sensitivities (1.0)
After 30+ Signals: Review agent win rates, consider increasing sensitivity of top performers or locking to dominant agent
Alert Configuration
The script includes built-in alert conditions:
Long Signal: Fires when validated long entry confirmed
Short Signal: Fires when validated short entry confirmed
Alerts fire once per bar (after confirmation requirements met)
Set alert to "Once Per Bar Close" for reliability

Fractal Market Model [BLAZ]Version 1.0 – Published August 2025: Initial release
1. Overview & Purpose
1.1. What This Indicator Does
The Fractal Market Model is an original multi-timeframe technical analysis tool that bridges the critical gap between macro-level market structure and micro-level price execution. Designed to work across all financial markets including Forex, Stocks, Crypto, Futures, and Commodities. While traditional Smart Money Concepts indicators exist, this implementation analyses multi-timeframe liquidity zones and price action shifts, marking potential reversal points where Higher Timeframe (HTF) liquidity sweeps coincide with Low Timeframe (LTF) price action dynamics changes.
Snapshot details: NASDAQ:GOOG , 1W Timeframe, Year 2025
1.2. What Sets This Indicator Apart
The Fractal Market Model analyses multi-timeframe correlations between HTF structural events and LTF price action. This creates a dynamic framework that reveals patterns observed historically in price behaviour that are believed to reflect institutional activity across multiple time dimensions.
The indicator recognizes that markets move in fractal cycles following the AMDX pattern (Accumulation, Manipulation, Distribution, Continuation/Reversal). By tracking this pattern across timeframes, it flags zones where price action dynamics characteristics have historically shown shifts. In the LTF, the indicator monitors for price closing through the open of an opposing candle near HTF swing highs or lows, marking this as a Change in State of Delivery (CISD), a threshold event where price action historically transitions direction.
Practical Value:
Multi-Timeframe Integration: Connects HTF structural events with LTF execution patterns.
Fractal Pattern Recognition: Identifies AMDX cycles across different time dimensions.
Price Behavior Analysis: Tracks CISD patterns that may reflect historical shifts in order flow commonly associated with institutional activity.
Range-Based Context: Analyses price action within established HTF liquidity zones.
1.3. How It Works
The indicator employs a systematic 5-candle HTF tracking methodology:
Candles 0-1: Accumulation phase identification.
Candle 2: Manipulation detection (raids previous highs/lows).
Candle 3: Distribution phase recognition.
Candle 4: Continuation/reversal toward opposite liquidity.
The system monitors for CISD patterns on the LTF when HTF manipulation candles close with confirmed sweeps, highlighting zones where order flow dynamics historically shifted within the established HTF range.

Triangle Asc/Descending Patterns [Drobode]█ DESCRIPTION
The script automatically tracks the descending or ascending triangle pattern. The script provides advanced settings, allowing you to adjust the pattern accuracy from high to low depending on your needs and technical analysis style. The main goal of the script is to facilitate the routine work of a trader in identifying certain trading situations (patterns). However, you should understand that the script is not a full-fledged self-sufficient strategy, in case of receiving a signal, it is recommended that you additionally conduct a comprehensive thorough analysis before taking trading actions. The script can be useful for traders of all levels, both beginners and experienced analysts. This variation of the script, in case of identifying a pattern, draws a contour triangle with the background color of the figure. The ascending triangle has a blue color, the descending triangle has a red color. The logic of the script provides that one of the legs (one side) of the triangle is always a horizontal line, simultaneously being a line of resistance or support, other variations of triangle patterns are not tracked. According to generally defined beliefs and observations of pattern formation, a descending and ascending triangle may indicate a possible breakdown of the conditional horizontal level to which the price of the instrument has approached, however, at the same time it is necessary to deeply analyze many other factors at this point, in particular, such as volumes, consolidation, volatility, and so on.
█ SCRIPT SETTINGS
By default, the script was pre-developed and tested on the M15 timeframe with the USDT.P crypto futures instruments.
Alert
The Alert function in the script is enabled by default, you just need to activate the Alert in the TradingView window and select the signal source - Triangle Asc/Descending Patterns .
The notification provides the following information (example):
Triangle_Ascending
Ticker- EGLDUSDT.P
Price-19.754
Timeframe- 15
Period length-160
Periods length
The script allows you to set the period length (number) of bars on which the calculation will be performed. Different periods make it possible to cover more timeframes (in particular, larger timeframes). The calculation is performed simultaneously on all periods, but you can turn off "Period length 3" and "Period length 4" by clicking on the check mark, this can speed up the script. The following period values are set by default: "Period length 1" – 80,
"Period length 2" – 160, "Period length 3" – 300, "Period length 4" – 681.
Percentage deviation of extremes
The next settings are the percentage deviation from the hypotenuse and horizontal leg, which creates the zone in which the extremes of the bars that will form the triangle shape should be. The smaller the deviation, the greater the accuracy and the closer to the hypotenuse and leg the bar extrema should be, however, in this case the number of pattern identifications will be smaller. By default, the deviation zone from the hypotenuse "Deflection zone of tangents to the hypotenuse" is - 0.4%, the deviation zone from the horizontal leg "Tangent deviation zone horizontal leg" is - 0.08%.
The presence of extrema at certain points on the sides of a triangle
The last block of settings are the conditions that increase the accuracy of the proportions of the pattern figure. These settings are aimed at confirming the presence of extrema in certain areas along the hypotenuse and horizontal leg. Thus, enabling "Extrema on the horizontal leg almost along the entire length" means that only those triangles will be tracked in which the horizontal leg zone has extrema almost along the entire length of this leg, this increases the accuracy but reduces the number of detected patterns. "Extremes present on second half of horizontal leg (more than 50%)" assumes that only those triangles will be tracked in which the extrema are present on the second half of the length of the given leg (more than 50%) in the zone of the horizontal leg. "Presence of an extrema in the middle region of the hypotenuse" assumes that only those triangles will be tracked in which the extrema are present on a certain segment of length in the central region of the hypotenuse.
Strategy Stats [presentTrading]Hello! it's another weekend. This tool is a strategy performance analysis tool. Looking at the TradingView community, it seems few creators focus on this aspect. I've intentionally created a shared version. Welcome to share your idea or question on this.
█ Introduction and How it is Different
Strategy Stats is a comprehensive performance analytics framework designed specifically for trading strategies. Unlike standard strategy backtesting tools that simply show cumulative profits, this analytics suite provides real-time, multi-timeframe statistical analysis of your trading performance.
Multi-timeframe analysis: Automatically tracks performance metrics across the most recent time periods (last 7 days, 30 days, 90 days, 1 year, and 4 years)
Advanced statistical measures: Goes beyond basic metrics to include Information Coefficient (IC) and Sortino Ratio
Real-time feedback: Updates performance statistics with each new trade
Visual analytics: Color-coded performance table provides instant visual feedback on strategy health
Integrated risk management: Implements sophisticated take profit mechanisms with 3-step ATR and percentage-based exits
BTCUSD Performance
The table in the upper right corner is a comprehensive performance dashboard showing trading strategy statistics.
Note: While this presentation uses Vegas SuperTrend as the underlying strategy, this is merely an example. The Stats framework can be applied to any trading strategy. The Vegas SuperTrend implementation is included solely to demonstrate how the analytics module integrates with a trading strategy.
⚠️ Timeframe Limitations
Important: TradingView's backtesting engine has a maximum storage limit of 10,000 bars. When using this strategy stats framework on smaller timeframes such as 1-hour or 2-hour charts, you may encounter errors if your backtesting period is too long.
Recommended Timeframe Usage:
Ideal for: 4H, 6H, 8H, Daily charts and above
May cause errors on: 1H, 2H charts spanning multiple years
Not recommended for: Timeframes below 1H with long history
█ Strategy, How it Works: Detailed Explanation
The Strategy Stats framework consists of three primary components: statistical data collection, performance analysis, and visualization.
🔶 Statistical Data Collection
The system maintains several critical data arrays:
equityHistory: Tracks equity curve over time
tradeHistory: Records profit/loss of each trade
predictionSignals: Stores trade direction signals (1 for long, -1 for short)
actualReturns: Records corresponding actual returns from each trade
For each closed trade, the system captures:
float tradePnL = strategy.closedtrades.profit(tradeIndex)
float tradeReturn = strategy.closedtrades.profit_percent(tradeIndex)
int tradeType = entryPrice < exitPrice ? 1 : -1 // Direction
🔶 Performance Metrics Calculation
The framework calculates several key performance metrics:
Information Coefficient (IC):
The correlation between prediction signals and actual returns, measuring forecast skill.
IC = Correlation(predictionSignals, actualReturns)
Where Correlation is the Pearson correlation coefficient:
Correlation(X,Y) = (nΣXY - ΣXY) / √
Sortino Ratio:
Measures risk-adjusted return focusing only on downside risk:
Sortino = (Avg_Return - Risk_Free_Rate) / Downside_Deviation
Where Downside Deviation is:
Downside_Deviation = √
R_i represents individual returns, T is the target return (typically the risk-free rate), and n is the number of observations.
Maximum Drawdown:
Tracks the largest percentage drop from peak to trough:
DD = (Peak_Equity - Trough_Equity) / Peak_Equity * 100
🔶 Time Period Calculation
The system automatically determines the appropriate number of bars to analyze for each timeframe based on the current chart timeframe:
bars_7d = math.max(1, math.round(7 * barsPerDay))
bars_30d = math.max(1, math.round(30 * barsPerDay))
bars_90d = math.max(1, math.round(90 * barsPerDay))
bars_365d = math.max(1, math.round(365 * barsPerDay))
bars_4y = math.max(1, math.round(365 * 4 * barsPerDay))
Where barsPerDay is calculated based on the chart timeframe:
barsPerDay = timeframe.isintraday ?
24 * 60 / math.max(1, (timeframe.in_seconds() / 60)) :
timeframe.isdaily ? 1 :
timeframe.isweekly ? 1/7 :
timeframe.ismonthly ? 1/30 : 0.01
🔶 Visual Representation
The system presents performance data in a color-coded table with intuitive visual indicators:
Green: Excellent performance
Lime: Good performance

4-Year Cycles [jpkxyz]Overview of the Script
I wanted to write a script that encompasses the wide-spread macro fund manager investment thesis: "Crypto is simply and expression of macro." A thesis pioneered by the likes of Raoul Pal (EXPAAM) , Andreesen Horowitz (A16Z) , Joe McCann (ASYMETRIC) , Bob Loukas and many more.
Cycle Theory Background:
The 2007-2008 financial crisis transformed central bank monetary policy by introducing:
- Quantitative Easing (QE): Creating money to buy assets and inject liquidity
- Coordinated global monetary interventions
Proactive 4-year economic cycles characterised by:
- Expansionary periods (low rates, money creation)
- Followed by contraction/normalisation
Central banks now deliberately manipulate liquidity, interest rates, and asset prices to control economic cycles, using monetary policy as a precision tool rather than a blunt instrument.
Cycle Characteristics (based on historical cycles):
- A cycle has 4 seasons (Spring, Summer, Fall, Winter)
- Each season with a cycle lasts 365 days
- The Cycle Low happens towards the beginning of the Spring Season of each new cycle
- This is followed by a run up throughout the Spring and Summer Season
- The Cycle High happens towards the end of the Fall Season
- The Winter season is characterised by price corrections until establishing a new floor in the Spring of the next cycle
Key Functionalities
1. Cycle Tracking
- Divides market history into 4-year cycles (Spring, Summer, Fall, Winter)
- Starts tracking cycles from 2011 (first cycle after the 2007 crisis cycle)
- Identifies and marks cycle boundaries
2. Visualization
- Colors background based on current cycle season
- Draws lines connecting:
- Cycle highs and lows
- Inter-cycle price movements
- Adds labels showing:
- Percentage gains/losses between cycles
- Number of days between significant points
3. Customization Options
- Allows users to customize:
- Colors for each season
- Line and label colors
- Label size
- Background opacity
Detailed Mechanism
Cycle Identification
- Uses a modulo calculation to determine the current season in the 4-year cycle
- Preset boundary years include 2015, 2019, 2023, 2027
- Automatically tracks and marks cycle transitions
Price Analysis
- Tracks highest and lowest prices within each cycle
- Calculates percentage changes:
- Intra-cycle (low to high)
- Inter-cycle (previous high to current high/low)
Visualization Techniques
- Background color changes based on current cycle season
- Dashed and solid lines connect significant price points
- Labels provide quantitative insights about price movements
Unique Aspects
1. Predictive Cycle Framework: Provides a structured way to view market movements beyond traditional technical analysis
2. Seasonal Color Coding: Intuitive visual representation of market cycle stages
3. Comprehensive Price Tracking: Captures both intra-cycle and inter-cycle price dynamics
4. Highly Customizable: Users can adjust visual parameters to suit their preferences
Potential Use Cases
- Technical analysis for long-term investors
- Identifying market cycle patterns
- Understanding historical price movement rhythms
- Educational tool for market cycle theory
Limitations/Considerations
- Based on a predefined 4-year cycle model (Liquidity Cycles)
- Historic Cycle Structures are not an indication for future performance
- May not perfectly represent all market behavior
- Requires visual interpretation
This script is particularly interesting for investors who believe in cyclical market theories and want a visual, data-driven representation of market stages.
Historical High/Lows Statistical Analysis(More Timeframe interval options coming in the future)
Indicator Description
The Hourly and Weekly High/Low (H/L) Analysis indicator provides a powerful tool for tracking the most frequent high and low points during different periods, specifically on an hourly basis and a weekly basis, broken down by the days of the week (DOTW). This indicator is particularly useful for traders seeking to understand historical behavior and patterns of high/low occurrences across both hourly intervals and weekly days, helping them make more informed decisions based on historical data.
With its customizable options, this indicator is versatile and applicable to a variety of trading strategies, ranging from intraday to swing trading. It is designed to meet the needs of both novice and experienced traders.
Key Features
Hourly High/Low Analysis:

How the Indicator Works
Hourly H/L Analysis:
The indicator calculates the highest and lowest prices for each hour in the specified date range.
Each hourly high and low occurrence is recorded and aggregated into a table, with counts displayed for all 24 hours.
Users can toggle the visibility of empty cells (hours with no high/low occurrences) and adjust the table's design to suit their preferences.
Supports both 12-hour (AM/PM) and 24-hour formats.
Weekly H/L DOTW Analysis:
The indicator tracks the highest and lowest prices for each day of the week during the user-specified date range.
Highs and lows are identified for the entire week, and the specific days when they occur are recorded.
Counts for each day are aggregated and displayed in a table, with a "Totals" column summarizing the overall occurrences.
The analysis resets weekly, ensuring accurate tracking of high/low days.
Code Breakdown:
Data Aggregation:
The script uses arrays to store counts of high/low occurrences for both hourly and weekly intervals.
Daily data is fetched using the request.security() function, ensuring consistent results regardless of the chart's timeframe.
Weekly Reset Mechanism:
Weekly high/low values are reset at the start of a new week (Monday) to ensure accurate weekly tracking.
A processing flag ensures that weekly data is counted only once at the end of the week (Sunday).
Table Visualization:
Tables are created using the table.new() function, with customizable styles and positions.
Header rows, data rows, and totals are dynamically populated based on the aggregated data.
User Inputs:
Customization options include text colors, background colors, table positioning, label formatting, and date ranges.
Code Explanation
The script is structured into two main sections:
Hourly H/L Analysis:
This section captures and aggregates high/low occurrences for each hour of the day.
The logic is session-aware, allowing users to define custom session times (e.g., 22-hour futures sessions).
Data is displayed in a clean table format with hourly labels.
Weekly H/L DOTW Analysis:
This section tracks weekly highs and lows by day of the week.
Highs and lows are identified for each week, and counts are updated only once per week to prevent duplication.
A user-friendly table displays the counts for each day of the week, along with totals.
Both sections are completely independent of each other to avoid interference. This ensures that enabling or disabling one section does not impact the functionality of the other.
Customization Options
For Hourly Analysis:
Toggle hourly table visibility.
Choose session start and end times.
Select hourly label format (12-hour or 24-hour).
Customize table appearance (colors, position, text size).
For Weekly DOTW Analysis:
Toggle DOTW table visibility.
Choose which days to include (e.g., hide weekends).
Customize table appearance (colors, position, text size).
Select values format (percentages or occurrences).
Conclusion

NWOG/NDOG [NINE]Overview
A professional-grade indicator for detecting and visualizing New Week Opening Gaps (NWOGs) and New Day Opening Gaps (NDOGs), essential concepts in ICT (Inner Circle Trader) methodology and analysis.
What Are Opening Gaps?
Opening gaps represent price inefficiencies created between trading sessions. When one session closes and the next session opens at a different price, the resulting "gap" creates a zone of unfilled orders and potential liquidity. These gaps often act as magnets for price, providing high-probability trading opportunities as the market seeks to rebalance these inefficiencies.
NWOG (New Week Opening Gap)
The gap between Friday's close and Sunday's open. These weekly imbalances are significant because they represent the collective repositioning of institutional traders over the weekend. NWOGs frequently serve as major support/resistance zones that can influence price action for days or even weeks. Due to their larger timeframe context, NWOGs typically carry more weight than daily gaps.
NDOG (New Day Opening Gap)
The gap between one session's close and the next session's open. Daily gaps occur more frequently than weekly gaps, offering more regular trading setups. While individually less significant than NWOGs, NDOGs provide valuable intraday reference points and often fill within the same trading session.
Features In Depth
Gap Detection & Visualization
The indicator automatically identifies and plots opening gaps as they form in real-time.
Automatic Detection: The indicator monitors session transitions and instantly identifies when a gap forms between the previous close and current open. NWOGs are detected on Sunday opens, while NDOGs are detected at each new daily session open (excluding Sundays, which are reserved for NWOG detection).
Bullish vs Bearish Classification: Each gap is automatically classified based on its direction:
Bullish Gap (Gap Up): Current open is higher than previous close, indicates overnight buying pressure
Bearish Gap (Gap Down): Current open is lower than previous close, indicates overnight selling pressure
The indicator uses distinct color schemes for bullish and bearish gaps, making it easy to identify gap direction at a glance. Current/most recent gaps use the "new" color settings, while historical gaps use the standard color settings.
Historical Tracking: Track up to 20 gaps of each type simultaneously. The "Historical Count" setting controls how many gaps remain visible on your chart. Older gaps are automatically removed as new ones form, keeping your chart clean while maintaining relevant historical context.
Visual Customization:
Toggle gap boundary lines (HIGH/LOW) on or off independently from the background fill
Choose line styles: solid (⎯⎯⎯), dashed (----), or dotted (····)
Adjust line thickness from 1-4 pixels
Enable/disable background fill with customizable transparency
Set colors independently for current vs historical gaps
Consequent Encroachment (C.E.)
The Consequent Encroachment represents the 50% midpoint of a gap — a critical level in ICT methodology.
Why C.E. Matters: In smart money concepts, the C.E. level represents the point of maximum efficiency within an imbalance. Price often gravitates toward this level as it seeks to rebalance the gap. Many traders use C.E. as their primary target when trading gap fills, or as a key level for entries and stop placement.
C.E. Display Options:
Independent color settings for current vs historical gaps
Separate line style and thickness controls
Can be shown/hidden independently from gap boundaries
Quarter Levels (25% and 75%): For traders who want additional precision, the indicator offers optional quarter levels at 25% and 75% of the gap range. These levels can serve as:
Partial profit targets
Scaling entry points
Additional support/resistance zones within the gap
Fill Tracking & Percentage
The indicator provides sophisticated fill tracking to monitor how much of each gap has been "filled" by subsequent price action.
How Fill Percentage Works:
For bullish gaps (gap up): Measures how far price has retraced DOWN from the gap's high toward its low
For bearish gaps (gap down): Measures how far price has retraced UP from the gap's low toward its high
The fill percentage updates in real-time as price moves through the gap zone, giving you instant feedback on gap fill progress.
Fill Detection Methods:
Wicks: Uses the full candle range (high/low) — more sensitive, detects fills earlier
Bodies: Uses only open/close prices — more conservative, requires stronger commitment
Visual Fill Indicators: The fill percentage is displayed with intuitive symbols:
〇 0-24% filled — Gap is largely untouched
◔ 25-49% filled — Minor fill in progress
◑ 50-74% filled — C.E. level has been reached
◕ 75-99% filled — Gap nearly complete
⬤ 100% filled — Gap fully filled
Hide Filled Gaps: Enable this option to automatically remove gaps from your chart once they reach 100% fill. This keeps your chart focused on active, unfilled gaps that still represent potential trading opportunities.
Projection Levels
When price breaks out of a gap zone, projection levels provide potential targets based on the gap's size.
How Projections Work: Once price closes above a gap's high (for upward projections) or below a gap's low (for downward projections), the indicator calculates extension levels using the gap's range as a measuring unit. These projections function similarly to Fibonacci extensions but are anchored to the gap's dimensions.
Projection Direction:
Upward Projections: Triggered when price closes above the gap's high — levels project above the gap
Downward Projections: Triggered when price closes below the gap's low — levels project below the gap
Customizable Multipliers: Define your own projection levels using the "Projection Levels" input. Enter comma-separated values representing multiples of the gap size:
Default: 0.5,1,2,2.5
Example custom: 0.618,1,1.618,2,2.618 (Fibonacci-based)
Each value creates a projection line at that multiple of the gap range
Projection Display Options:
Side: Display projections on the Left (extending back from gap formation) or Right (extending forward)
Color, Style, Thickness: Full visual customization
Labels: Show multiplier values at each projection level
"Extend Until Tapped" Feature: When enabled (Left side only), projection lines stop extending once price touches them. This creates a visual record of which levels have been reached and when, helping you track projection performance over time. Untapped projections continue extending until they're reached.
Labels & Formatting
Comprehensive labeling options help you quickly identify and reference gaps on your chart.
Label Format Options:
Gap Type: Simple label showing "NWOG" or "NDOG"
Gap Type + Date: Includes the full date with day of week (e.g., "NWOG Monday, November 3, 2025")
Gap Type + Date + Filled Percent: Adds the fill percentage and symbol (e.g., "NWOG Monday, November 3, 2025 ")
Label Positioning:
When Show Levels is ON: Separate labels appear at the HIGH and LOW boundaries
When Show Levels is OFF: A single label appears at the C.E. (midpoint) level
Label Customization:
Text size: Tiny, Small, Normal, or Large
Text color and background color (set background transparency to 100 for no background)
Tooltips provide detailed information including all price levels and fill percentage
Hide Historical Labels: Enable this option to hide labels and projection text on all gaps except the most recent. Lines remain visible, but text clutter is reduced — useful when tracking many historical gaps.
Status Table
An optional summary table provides at-a-glance information about all active gaps.
Table Contents: For each active gap, the table displays:
Gap Type: NWOG or NDOG with date
HIGH: Upper boundary of the gap
LOW: Lower boundary of the gap
C.E.: Consequent Encroachment (50% level)
% Filled: Current fill percentage with visual symbol
Display Settings:
Position: 9 positions available (Top/Middle/Bottom × Left/Center/Right)
Size: Tiny, Small, or Normal text
Gap Count: Control how many NWOGs and NDOGs appear in the table (1-3 each)
Adaptive Theming: The table automatically detects your chart's background color and adjusts text colors for optimal readability on both light and dark themes.
Smart Filtering: The table only shows unfilled gaps (or gaps not hidden by the "Hide Filled" setting), keeping the display focused on actionable information.
Alert System
Stay informed of key gap events without constantly monitoring your charts.
Gap Formation Alerts: Receive an alert the moment a new gap is detected. The alert includes:
Gap direction (Bullish/Bearish)
Gap type (NWOG/NDOG)
Symbol name
Example: "Bullish NWOG formed on AMEX:SPY "
Gap Filled Alerts: Get notified when a gap reaches 100% fill. This is valuable for:
Confirming trade targets have been reached
Identifying when gaps are no longer active reference points
Example: "NWOG filled on AMEX:SPY "
Projection Level Alerts: Receive alerts when price reaches your defined projection levels. Each level only alerts once, preventing spam. Useful for:
Taking profits at projection targets
Identifying extended moves beyond the gap
Example: "NWOG 2x projection reached on AMEX:SPY "
General Settings
Gap Offset: Controls how many bars the gap lines extend to the right of the current candle (0-15 bars). A higher offset keeps labels and lines visible further into the future, while a lower offset keeps the display tighter to current price action.
Tips
NWOG Priority: NWOGs typically hold more significance than NDOGs due to their weekly timeframe. When NWOG and NDOG levels conflict, consider giving more weight to the NWOG.
Unfilled Historical Gaps: Gaps from days or weeks ago can still influence current price action. Don't ignore older unfilled gaps — they often become relevant when price returns to those zones.
Session Context: Pay attention to which session created the gap. Gaps formed during high-volume sessions (like NYSE open) may carry more significance than gaps from lower-volume periods.
Gap Size Matters: Larger gaps represent more significant imbalances and often provide stronger support/resistance. Smaller gaps may fill quickly and offer less reliable levels.
Clean Chart Option: Use "Hide Historical Labels" combined with the status table to maintain a clean chart while still having access to all gap information.
Requirements
Intraday Timeframes Only: This indicator works exclusively on intraday timeframes (minutes, hours). Gap detection requires session open/close data that is only available on intraday charts.
Sufficient Historical Data: Ensure your chart has enough historical bars loaded for accurate gap tracking, especially if using higher historical count settings.
Session-Based Markets: The indicator is optimized for markets with distinct trading sessions (stocks, futures, forex). 24/7 markets like crypto may show fewer or different gap patterns.

Trendslinger CVDCVD - Cumulative Volume Delta
Cumulative Volume Delta (CVD) tracks the running total of buying versus selling pressure by analyzing volume distribution within each price bar. This indicator visualizes order flow dynamics to help identify accumulation, distribution, and potential trend reversals.
How It Works
CVD calculates the "delta" (difference between buying and selling volume) for each bar and accumulates it over time. Two calculation methods are available:
Close Position: Estimates buy/sell volume based on where price closes within the bar's range. A close near the high suggests more buying pressure; a close near the low suggests more selling pressure.
Polarity: Simple method where green candles count as buy volume and red candles count as sell volume.
Key Features
Multiple Display Types: View CVD as candlesticks, line, histogram, area, or columns
Flexible Reset Options: Reset CVD hourly, daily, or weekly for cleaner intraday analysis
Divergence Detection: Automatically identifies bullish and bearish divergences between price and CVD
Session Tracking: Optional high/low reference lines for the current session
Smoothing Options: Apply SMA, EMA, WMA, or RMA smoothing to reduce noise
Info Table: Real-time display of current CVD value, bar delta, and session extremes
Built-in Alerts: Zero line crosses, divergences, and new session highs/lows
How To Use
Trend Confirmation: Rising CVD confirms bullish price action; falling CVD confirms bearish moves
Divergences: Price making new highs while CVD makes lower highs signals weakening buying pressure (bearish). Price making new lows while CVD makes higher lows signals weakening selling pressure (bullish)
Zero Line: CVD crossing above zero suggests buyers taking control; crossing below suggests sellers dominating
Hourly Resets: Useful for scalping and intraday trading to track momentum within each hour
Nexural ORB Nexural ORB - Multi-Timeframe Opening Range Breakout Indicator
Introduction
This indicator was built out of frustration. After testing dozens of ORB tools, both free and paid, I found that most of them either did too little or cluttered the chart with unnecessary information. The Opening Range Breakout is one of the oldest and most reliable intraday strategies, yet most indicators treat it as an afterthought - just a box on the chart with no context.
This is not that kind of indicator.
The Nexural Ultimate ORB tracks the Opening Range across three timeframes simultaneously, provides quality scoring to help you identify high-probability setups, detects when multiple levels align for confluence, and now includes historical ORB data so you can scroll back and review previous sessions. It does not tell you when to buy or sell. It does not promise profits. What it does is give you clean, accurate levels with the context you need to make informed decisions.
I am going to be completely transparent about what this indicator does, how it works, what it does well, and where it falls short. If you are looking for a magic solution that prints money, this is not it. If you are looking for a professional-grade tool that will become a permanent part of your charting setup, keep reading.
What Is The Opening Range Breakout
Before diving into the indicator itself, let me explain the strategy it is built around.
The Opening Range is simply the high and low price established during the first portion of the trading session. For US equities and futures, this typically begins at 9:30 AM Eastern Time. The theory behind trading the Opening Range is straightforward: the first 15, 30, or 60 minutes of trade often sets the tone for the rest of the day. Institutional traders, algorithms, and market makers are all actively positioning during this window, and the levels they establish become reference points for the remainder of the session.
When price breaks above the Opening Range High, it suggests bullish momentum and the potential for continuation higher. When price breaks below the Opening Range Low, it suggests bearish momentum and the potential for continuation lower. The strategy has been used by floor traders for decades and remains relevant today because the underlying market dynamics have not changed - the open is when the most information gets priced in, and the levels established during that period matter.
This indicator does not trade the ORB for you. It identifies the levels, tracks multiple timeframes, and provides context. The actual trading decisions are yours.
How The Opening Range Is Calculated
The indicator calculates the Opening Range for three timeframes:
The 15-Minute ORB captures the high and low from 9:30 AM to 9:45 AM. This is the shortest timeframe and typically produces the tightest range. Breakouts from the 15-minute ORB tend to occur earliest in the session and can provide early directional signals, though they are also more prone to false breakouts due to the narrow range.
The 30-Minute ORB captures the high and low from 9:30 AM to 10:00 AM. This is considered by many institutional traders to be the most significant timeframe. The 30-minute window allows enough time for the initial volatility to settle while still capturing the core opening activity. Many professional trading desks reference the 30-minute ORB as their primary intraday framework.
The 60-Minute ORB captures the high and low from 9:30 AM to 10:30 AM. This is the widest range and produces fewer signals, but those signals tend to be more reliable. The 60-minute ORB is particularly useful on high-volatility days when the 15 and 30-minute ranges get quickly violated.
The calculation itself is simple. As each bar completes during the opening period, the indicator compares the current high and low to the stored values and updates them if new extremes are reached. Once the timeframe completes, the levels lock in and do not change for the rest of the session.
I want to be absolutely clear about one thing: there is no repainting. The ORB levels are calculated in real-time as the opening period develops. Once a timeframe completes, those levels are final. You will not look back at your chart and see different levels than what appeared in real-time. This is critically important for any indicator you use for actual trading decisions.
Visual Hierarchy and Line Styles
One of the main problems with multi-timeframe indicators is visual clutter. When you have six lines on the chart representing three different ORBs, it becomes difficult to quickly identify which level belongs to which timeframe.
This indicator solves that problem through a clear visual hierarchy. Each timeframe has its own color, line width, and line style, all of which are fully customizable.
By default, the 15-Minute ORB uses solid lines with the heaviest weight. This makes it the most prominent on the chart because it is typically the first level to be tested and often the most actively traded.
The 30-Minute ORB uses dashed lines with a medium weight. This keeps it visible but clearly secondary to the 15-minute levels.
The 60-Minute ORB uses dotted lines with a medium weight. This places it in the background as a reference level rather than an active trading zone.
You can change any of these settings. If you prefer to trade the 30-minute ORB exclusively, you can make it solid and bold while keeping the others subtle. If you only want to see the 60-minute ORB, you can disable the other two entirely. The flexibility is there because every trader has different preferences.
The dashboard in the top right corner of the chart displays the corresponding line style next to each timeframe, so you always know which line on the chart matches which row in the dashboard.
The Quality Scoring System
Not every Opening Range is worth trading. Some days produce tight, clean ranges with strong follow-through. Other days produce wide, choppy ranges that lead to multiple false breakouts. One of the most valuable features of this indicator is the Quality Score, which grades each session from A-plus down to C.
The Quality Score is calculated based on several factors:
Range Size is the most important factor. The indicator compares the current ORB range to the average daily range over the past 20 sessions. A tight range, defined as less than 40 percent of the average daily range, receives the highest score. The logic here is simple: tight ranges indicate consolidation, and consolidation often precedes expansion. When the ORB is tight, a breakout has more room to run.
A normal range, between 40 and 80 percent of the average daily range, receives a moderate score. These are typical trading days without any particular edge from a range perspective.
A wide range, greater than 80 percent of the average daily range, receives the lowest score. When the ORB is already wide, much of the day's move may have already occurred during the opening period, leaving less opportunity for breakout continuation.
Volume is the second factor. Above-average volume during the opening period indicates genuine institutional participation. The indicator compares the current volume to the 20-bar average. Significantly elevated volume adds to the quality score, while below-average volume does not penalize the score but does not help it either.
Day of Week matters more than most traders realize. Statistical studies of market behavior consistently show that Tuesday, Wednesday, and Thursday produce cleaner trending days than Monday or Friday. Monday mornings often see erratic price action as the market digests weekend news and repositions. Friday afternoons often see reduced participation as traders close out positions before the weekend. The quality score reflects these tendencies by adding points for mid-week sessions and subtracting points for Monday mornings and Friday afternoons.
Overnight Activity is relevant primarily for futures traders. If the overnight session produced a significant range, defined as greater than half of the average true range, it suggests that institutions were active during the overnight hours. This often leads to more directional behavior during the regular session.
The quality score is displayed in the dashboard as a letter grade. A-plus indicates excellent conditions across multiple factors. A indicates good conditions. B indicates average conditions. C indicates below-average conditions that warrant caution.
I want to be honest about the limitations of this system. The quality score is a guideline, not a guarantee. A C-rated day can still produce a profitable breakout. An A-plus day can still result in a failed breakout that reverses. The score helps you calibrate your expectations and position sizing, but it does not predict the future.
Confluence Detection
Confluence occurs when multiple significant price levels cluster together within a tight range. When the 15-minute ORB high aligns with the overnight high, or when the ORB low sits right at the session opening price, you have confluence. These zones tend to produce stronger reactions because multiple types of traders are watching the same level.
The indicator automatically detects confluence using a tolerance-based system. By default, the tolerance is set to 0.15 percent of price. This means that if two levels are within 0.15 percent of each other, they are considered confluent.
The levels that are checked for confluence include the Session Opening Price, which is the exact price at 9:30 AM. This level matters because it represents the point where the market transitioned from overnight to regular session trading. Many traders reference the opening print throughout the day.
The Overnight High and Low are also checked. For futures markets, this includes all trading from 6:00 PM the previous evening through 9:29 AM. For stocks, this includes extended hours trading. These levels represent the extremes established before the regular session began.
Finally, the indicator checks whether the ORB levels from different timeframes align with each other. When the 15-minute high matches the 30-minute high, that level gains additional significance.
When confluence is detected, two things happen on the chart. First, the affected ORB line changes color to gold, making it visually obvious that this level has additional significance. Second, the dashboard displays a Confluence row at the bottom, alerting you to the condition.
The Confluence label also appears directly on the chart, positioned within the ORB zone so you can immediately see where the confluence exists.
Smart Label System
A common problem with indicators that display multiple price levels is label overlap. When you have six ORB levels plus auxiliary levels like the session open and overnight high and low, the right side of the chart can become a cluttered mess of overlapping text.
This indicator solves that problem with a smart labeling system that combines matching levels. If the 15-minute low, 30-minute low, and 60-minute low are all at the same price, instead of displaying three separate labels, the indicator displays a single label that reads 15L/30L/60L followed by the price.
The system uses a tolerance of 2 percent of the ORB range to determine whether levels are close enough to combine. This keeps the labels clean while still displaying separate labels when levels are meaningfully different.
The labels are positioned to the right of the current price action, extending beyond the last bar so they remain visible as new bars form. Each label includes the level identifier and the exact price value.
Historical ORB Display
This feature addresses one of the most common limitations of ORB indicators: the inability to see previous sessions when scrolling back through your chart.
With the history feature enabled, the indicator stores ORB data for up to 20 previous sessions. When you scroll back in time, you will see the ORB levels for each historical session, drawn from the session start to the session end.
Historical ORBs are displayed with slightly faded colors, using 50 percent transparency compared to the current session. This creates a clear visual distinction between current and historical levels while still allowing you to analyze past price action relative to those levels.
The history depth is configurable. You can set it anywhere from 1 to 20 days depending on your needs. If you primarily care about the current session and the previous day for context, set it to 1 or 2. If you want to analyze an entire week or more of ORB behavior, increase the setting.
You can also disable the history feature entirely by enabling Current Session Only mode. This returns the indicator to showing only the active session, which some traders prefer for a cleaner chart during live trading.
Breakout Detection and Filters
The indicator marks breakouts with triangle signals. A green triangle below the bar indicates a bullish breakout above the ORB high. A red triangle above the bar indicates a bearish breakout below the ORB low.
However, not every crossing of an ORB level represents a valid breakout worth acting on. The indicator includes several filters to reduce false signals.
The Volume Filter requires that volume on the breakout bar be at least 1.2 times the 20-bar average volume. You can adjust this multiplier in the settings. The logic is straightforward: breakouts on weak volume are more likely to fail. A genuine breakout that is going to follow through should be accompanied by above-average participation.
The Time Filter prevents breakout signals after a specified hour. The default is 2:00 PM Eastern. The rationale is that late-session breakouts often lack follow-through because there is not enough trading time remaining for the move to develop. You can adjust or disable this filter based on your trading style.
The Single Trigger mechanism ensures that each breakout fires exactly once per session. If price crosses above the ORB high, you will see one bullish signal on the bar where the crossing occurred. If price subsequently pulls back and crosses above again, you will not see a second signal. This prevents signal spam and keeps your chart clean.
The indicator also includes Reclaim Detection. If price breaks out and then returns back inside the ORB zone, you will see a warning signal marked with an X. This condition often indicates a failed breakout and potential reversal. It is not a trade signal, but rather information that the breakout you just witnessed may not be valid.
Range Extensions
Once the ORB is established, many traders look for profit targets based on the range itself. The indicator includes extension levels that project multiples of the ORB range above and below the extremes.
By default, two extension levels are shown: 1.0 times the range and 1.5 times the range. If the 15-minute ORB is 50 points, the 1.0 extension above the high would be 50 points above the high, and the 1.5 extension would be 75 points above the high.
These extensions serve as potential profit targets for breakout trades. The 1.0 extension represents a measured move equal to the ORB itself. The 1.5 extension represents a slightly more ambitious target.
You can adjust the extension multipliers in the settings. Some traders prefer 0.5 and 1.0. Others prefer 1.0 and 2.0. The flexibility is there to match your trading approach.
The extension lines are displayed as faint dotted lines so they do not compete visually with the ORB levels themselves. The labels show the multiplier value along with the exact price.
## The Midline
The 50 percent level of the ORB, known as the midline, is displayed as a dashed line within the ORB zone. This level matters because it often acts as short-term support or resistance during consolidation periods within the range.
When price is trading inside the ORB and approaches the midline, you may see a reaction. The midline can also serve as a reference for whether price is showing strength or weakness within the range. If price is spending most of its time above the midline, that suggests a bullish bias even before a breakout occurs. If price is spending most of its time below the midline, that suggests a bearish bias.
The midline can be disabled in the settings if you prefer a cleaner chart.
The Dashboard
The dashboard is positioned in the top right corner of the chart and provides all relevant ORB information at a glance.
The header row displays the indicator name, the current Quality Score grade, the Range Classification, and the Session Status.
The Range Classification shows whether the current 15-minute ORB is Tight, Normal, or Wide compared to the 20-day average. This gives you immediate context about whether the range is unusual in either direction.
The Session Status shows whether the market is currently in session or closed. A green Live indicator means the session is active. A red Closed indicator means the session has ended.
Below the header, each timeframe row displays the following information:
The Timeframe column shows 15m, 30m, or 60m along with a visual indicator of the line style you have selected for that timeframe.
The High column displays the ORB high price for that timeframe.
The Low column displays the ORB low price for that timeframe.
The Range column displays the distance between high and low.
The Status column shows the current state. Before the ORB completes, this shows a countdown of minutes remaining. After completion, it shows whether the price has broken out bullish, broken out bearish, or remains in range.
Below the timeframe rows, the Distance row shows how far the current price is from the nearest ORB level. This helps you gauge whether price is approaching a potential breakout zone.
If confluence is detected, a highlighted row appears at the bottom of the dashboard indicating that significant level alignment exists.
Supported Markets and Sessions
The indicator supports multiple market types with appropriate session times:
US Stocks use a session from 9:30 AM to 4:00 PM Eastern.
US Futures use a session from 9:30 AM to 4:00 PM Eastern, with overnight tracking from 6:00 PM the previous evening.
Forex uses a 24-hour session since the market trades continuously.
Crypto uses a 24-hour session since the market trades continuously.
Custom allows you to define your own session times for markets not covered by the presets.
The timezone is configurable. The default is America/New_York, but you can change it to Chicago, Los Angeles, London, Tokyo, or UTC depending on your location and preference.
Settings Overview
The settings are organized into logical groups:
General settings include the market type, current session only toggle, and history days.
Session settings include custom session times and timezone selection.
ORB Timeframes settings include individual toggles for showing or hiding each timeframe, color selection, line width, and line style. This is where you customize the visual appearance of each ORB level.
Quality Scoring settings include the ATR period and range comparison lookback. These affect how the quality score is calculated.
Confluence Detection settings include the tolerance percentage and toggles for the session open and overnight high and low levels.
Breakout Settings include the volume filter toggle and multiplier, time filter toggle and cutoff hour, and reclaim detection toggle.
Visuals settings include toggles for the fill zone, labels, dashboard, distance display, and midline.
Extensions settings include toggles for showing extensions and the multiplier values for each extension level.
How I Use This Indicator
I will share my personal approach, though you should adapt it to your own style.
First, I wait for the ORB to complete. I do not trade during the first 15 to 30 minutes of the session. The levels are still forming, and the price action during this window is often erratic. I let the dust settle and the range establish itself.
Second, I check the Quality Score. If it is an A or A-plus day with a tight range and good volume, I am more aggressive. If it is a C day with a wide range on a Friday afternoon, I am either sitting on my hands or trading with reduced size.
Third, I look for confluence. If the 15-minute high is sitting right at the overnight high, that level has additional significance. Breakouts through confluence zones tend to be more decisive.
Fourth, I confirm with volume. Even though the indicator filters for volume, I still glance at the volume bars. I want to see that breakout candle have conviction.
Fifth, I manage expectations based on range type. If the ORB is tight, I expect an explosive move and give the trade room to develop. If the ORB is wide, I expect choppier action and tighten my parameters.
Sixth, I use the distance reading. If price is already 50 points beyond the ORB high and the range was only 40 points, I have missed the move. Chasing extended price is not smart trading.
Honest Pros and Cons
What this indicator does well:
It provides clean, accurate ORB levels that do not repaint. This is the foundation, and it is done correctly.
It offers multi-timeframe tracking with clear visual differentiation. You can see all three ORBs at once without confusion.
The quality scoring system helps you avoid low-probability setups. It is not perfect, but it adds valuable context.
The confluence detection highlights significant level alignment automatically. This saves you from manually checking multiple levels.
The smart label system prevents visual clutter. Labels combine when appropriate and remain readable.
The historical ORB display allows you to scroll back and review previous sessions. This is valuable for analysis and pattern recognition.
The customization is extensive. Every visual element can be adjusted to match your preferences.
It works across stocks, futures, forex, and crypto with appropriate session handling.
What this indicator does not do:
It does not give you buy and sell signals with entries and exits. This is a levels and analysis tool, not a trading system.
It does not include backtesting or performance tracking. You need a separate strategy tester for that.
It does not guarantee that breakouts will follow through. The filters help, but failed breakouts still occur.
The quality score is a guideline, not a prediction. Low-quality days can still produce good trades. High-quality days can still produce losing trades.
The confluence detection is proximity-based. It identifies when levels are near each other but does not know if those levels are actually significant to other traders.
Technical limitations to be aware of:
On chart timeframes larger than 15 minutes, the ORB calculation becomes less precise because you have fewer bars in the opening period. This indicator works best on 1 to 15 minute charts.
The overnight high and low tracking works best on futures. Stocks do not have true overnight sessions in the same way.
If your chart does not have volume data, the volume filter will not function properly.
Risk Management
This section is not about the indicator. It is about trading.
No indicator, no matter how well designed, can protect you from poor risk management. Before you trade any ORB breakout, you need to define your risk.
Where is your stop? A common approach is to place the stop on the opposite side of the ORB zone. If you are taking a bullish breakout above the high, your stop goes below the low. This means your risk is the full ORB range plus any slippage.
Is that risk acceptable? If the ORB range is 100 points and you are trading a 50 dollar per point contract, your risk is 5000 dollars plus commissions. Can you afford that loss? If not, either reduce your size or skip the trade.
Where is your target? The extensions provide potential targets, but you need to decide in advance where you will take profits. Hoping for an unlimited run while watching your profits evaporate is not a strategy.
What is your win rate? ORB breakouts do not work every time. Depending on the market and conditions, you might win 50 to 60 percent of the time. That means you will have losing trades. Are you prepared for a string of three or four losers in a row? It will happen.
None of this is specific to this indicator. It applies to all trading. But I include it here because I see too many traders focus on the indicator while ignoring the fundamentals of risk management. The indicator can help you identify setups. It cannot manage your risk for you.
Final Thoughts
I built this indicator for my own trading, then refined it to the point where I felt comfortable sharing it. It is not a holy grail. It will not make you profitable if you do not already have a trading process. What it will do is give you clean, accurate ORB levels with context that most indicators do not provide.
The Opening Range Breakout works because institutions and algorithms reference these same levels. When the first 30 or 60 minutes of trading establishes a range, that becomes a reference point for the rest of the session. This indicator makes those levels visible and adds intelligence around when they are worth paying attention to.
Use it as a tool, not a crutch. Combine it with your own analysis. Manage your risk properly. And please, do not trade with money you cannot afford to lose.
If you have questions or feedback, I am actively maintaining this indicator and will consider feature requests for future updates.
Trade well.

Kernel Market Dynamics [WFO - MAB]Kernel Market Dynamics
⚛️ CORE INNOVATION: KERNEL-BASED DISTRIBUTION ANALYSIS
The Kernel Market Dynamics system represents a fundamental departure from traditional technical indicators. Rather than measuring price levels, momentum, or oscillator extremes, KMD analyzes the statistical distribution of market returns using advanced kernel methods from machine learning theory. This allows the system to detect when market behavior has fundamentally changed—not just when price has moved, but when the underlying probability structure has shifted.
The Distribution Hypothesis:
Traditional indicators assume markets move in predictable patterns. KMD assumes something more profound: markets exist in distinct distributional regimes , and profitable trading opportunities emerge during regime transitions . When the distribution of recent returns diverges significantly from the historical baseline, the market is restructuring—and that's when edge exists.
Maximum Mean Discrepancy (MMD):
At the heart of KMD lies a sophisticated statistical metric called Maximum Mean Discrepancy. MMD measures the distance between two probability distributions by comparing their representations in a high-dimensional feature space created by a kernel function.
The Mathematics:
Given two sets of normalized returns:
• Reference period (X) : Historical baseline (default 100 bars)
• Test period (Y) : Recent behavior (default 20 bars)
MMD is calculated as:
MMD² = E + E - 2·E
Where:
• E = Expected kernel similarity within reference period
• E = Expected kernel similarity within test period
• E = Expected cross-similarity between periods
When MMD is low : Test period behaves like reference (stable regime)
When MMD is high : Test period diverges from reference (regime shift)
The final MMD value is smoothed with EMA(5) to reduce single-bar noise while maintaining responsiveness to genuine distribution changes.
The Kernel Functions:
The kernel function defines how similarity is measured. KMD offers four mathematically distinct kernels, each with different properties:
1. RBF (Radial Basis Function / Gaussian):
• Formula: k(x,y) = exp(-d² / (2·σ²·scale))
• Properties: Most sensitive to distribution changes, smooth decision boundaries
• Best for: Clean data, clear regime shifts, low-noise markets
• Sensitivity: Highest - detects subtle changes
• Use case: Stock indices, major forex pairs, trending environments
2. Laplacian:
• Formula: k(x,y) = exp(-|d| / σ)
• Properties: Medium sensitivity, robust to moderate outliers
• Best for: Standard market conditions, balanced noise/signal
• Sensitivity: Medium - filters minor fluctuations
• Use case: Commodities, standard timeframes, general trading
3. Cauchy (Default - Most Robust):
• Formula: k(x,y) = 1 / (1 + d²/σ²)
• Properties: Heavy-tailed, highly robust to outliers and spikes
• Best for: Noisy markets, choppy conditions, crypto volatility
• Sensitivity: Lower - only major distribution shifts trigger
• Use case: Cryptocurrencies, illiquid markets, volatile instruments
4. Rational Quadratic:
• Formula: k(x,y) = (1 + d²/(2·α·σ²))^(-α)
• Properties: Tunable via alpha parameter, mixture of RBF kernels
• Alpha < 1.0: Heavy tails (like Cauchy)
• Alpha > 3.0: Light tails (like RBF)
• Best for: Adaptive use, mixed market conditions
• Use case: Experimental optimization, regime-specific tuning
Bandwidth (σ) Parameter:
The bandwidth controls the "width" of the kernel, determining sensitivity to return differences:
• Low bandwidth (0.5-1.5) : Narrow kernel, very sensitive
- Treats small differences as significant
- More MMD spikes, more signals
- Use for: Scalping, fast markets
• Medium bandwidth (1.5-3.0) : Balanced sensitivity (recommended)
- Filters noise while catching real shifts
- Professional-grade signal quality
- Use for: Day/swing trading
• High bandwidth (3.0-10.0) : Wide kernel, less sensitive
- Only major distribution changes register
- Fewer, stronger signals
- Use for: Position trading, trend following
Adaptive Bandwidth:
When enabled (default ON), bandwidth automatically scales with market volatility:
Effective_BW = Base_BW × max(0.5, min(2.0, 1 / volatility_ratio))
• Low volatility → Tighter bandwidth (0.5× base) → More sensitive
• High volatility → Wider bandwidth (2.0× base) → Less sensitive
This prevents signal flooding during wild markets and avoids signal drought during calm periods.
Why Kernels Work:
Kernel methods implicitly map data to infinite-dimensional space where complex, nonlinear patterns become linearly separable. This allows MMD to detect distribution changes that simpler statistics (mean, variance) would miss. For example:
• Same mean, different shape : Traditional metrics see nothing, MMD detects shift
• Same volatility, different skew : Oscillators miss it, MMD catches it
• Regime rotation : Price unchanged, but return distribution restructured
The kernel captures the entire distributional signature —not just first and second moments.
🎰 MULTI-ARMED BANDIT FRAMEWORK: ADAPTIVE STRATEGY SELECTION
Rather than forcing one strategy on all market conditions, KMD implements a Multi-Armed Bandit (MAB) system that learns which of seven distinct strategies performs best and dynamically selects the optimal approach in real-time.
The Seven Arms (Strategies):
Each arm represents a fundamentally different trading logic:
ARM 0 - MMD Regime Shift:
• Logic: Distribution divergence with directional bias
• Triggers: MMD > threshold AND direction_bias confirmed AND velocity > 5%
• Philosophy: Trade the regime transition itself
• Best in: Volatile shifts, breakout moments, crisis periods
• Weakness: False alarms in choppy consolidation
ARM 1 - Trend Following:
• Logic: Aligned EMAs with strong ADX
• Triggers: EMA(9) > EMA(21) > EMA(50) AND ADX > 25
• Philosophy: Ride established momentum
• Best in: Strong trending regimes, directional markets
• Weakness: Late entries, whipsaws at reversals
ARM 2 - Breakout:
• Logic: Bollinger Band breakouts with volume
• Triggers: Price crosses BB outer band AND volume > 1.2× average
• Philosophy: Capture volatility expansion events
• Best in: Range breakouts, earnings, news events
• Weakness: False breakouts in ranging markets
ARM 3 - RSI Mean Reversion:
• Logic: RSI extremes with reversal confirmation
• Triggers: RSI < 30 with uptick OR RSI > 70 with downtick
• Philosophy: Fade overbought/oversold extremes
• Best in: Ranging markets, mean-reverting instruments
• Weakness: Fails in strong trends, catches falling knives
ARM 4 - Z-Score Statistical Reversion:
• Logic: Price deviation from 50-period mean
• Triggers: Z-score < -2 (oversold) OR > +2 (overbought) with reversal
• Philosophy: Statistical bounds reversion
• Best in: Stable volatility regimes, pairs trading
• Weakness: Trend continuation through extremes
ARM 5 - ADX Momentum:
• Logic: Strong directional movement with acceleration
• Triggers: ADX > 30 with DI+ or DI- strengthening
• Philosophy: Momentum begets momentum
• Best in: Trending with increasing velocity
• Weakness: Late exits, momentum exhaustion
ARM 6 - Volume Confirmation:
• Logic: OBV trend + volume spike + candle direction
• Triggers: OBV > EMA(20) AND volume > average AND bullish candle
• Philosophy: Follow institutional money flow
• Best in: Liquid markets with reliable volume
• Weakness: Manipulated volume, thin markets
Q-Learning with Rewards:
Each arm maintains a Q-value representing its expected reward. After every bar, the system calculates a reward based on the arm's signal and actual price movement:
Reward Calculation:
If arm signaled LONG:
reward = (close - close ) / close
If arm signaled SHORT:
reward = -(close - close ) / close
If arm signaled NEUTRAL:
reward = 0
Penalty multiplier: If loss > 0.5%, reward × 1.3 (punish big losses harder)
Q-Value Update (Exponential Moving Average):
Q_new = Q_old + α × (reward - Q_old)
Where α (learning rate, default 0.08) controls adaptation speed:
• Low α (0.01-0.05): Slow, stable learning
• Medium α (0.06-0.12): Balanced (recommended)
• High α (0.15-0.30): Fast, reactive learning
This gradually shifts Q-values toward arms that generate positive returns and away from losing arms.
Arm Selection Algorithms:
KMD offers four mathematically distinct selection strategies:
1. UCB1 (Upper Confidence Bound) - Recommended:
Formula: Select arm with max(Q_i + c·√(ln(t)/n_i))
Where:
• Q_i = Q-value of arm i
• c = exploration constant (default 1.5)
• t = total pulls across all arms
• n_i = pulls of arm i
Philosophy: Balance exploitation (use best arm) with exploration (try uncertain arms). The √(ln(t)/n_i) term creates an "exploration bonus" that decreases as an arm gets more pulls, ensuring all arms get sufficient testing.
Theoretical guarantee: Logarithmic regret bound - UCB1 provably converges to optimal arm selection over time.
2. UCB1-Tuned (Variance-Aware UCB):
Formula: Select arm with max(Q_i + √(ln(t)/n_i × min(0.25, V_i + √(2·ln(t)/n_i))))
Where V_i = variance of rewards for arm i
Philosophy: Incorporates reward variance into exploration. Arms with high variance (unpredictable) get less exploration bonus, focusing effort on stable performers.
Better bounds than UCB1 in practice, slightly more conservative exploration.
3. Epsilon-Greedy (Simple Random):
Algorithm:
With probability ε: Select random arm (explore)
With probability 1-ε: Select highest Q-value arm (exploit)
Default ε = 0.10 (10% exploration, 90% exploitation)
Philosophy: Simplest algorithm, easy to understand. Random exploration ensures all arms stay updated but may waste time on clearly bad arms.
4. Thompson Sampling (Bayesian):
The most sophisticated selection algorithm, using true Bayesian probability.
Each arm maintains Beta distribution parameters:
• α (alpha) = successes + 1
• β (beta) = failures + 1
Selection Process:
1. Sample θ_i ~ Beta(α_i, β_i) for each arm using Marsaglia-Tsang Gamma sampler
2. Select arm with highest sample: argmax_i(θ_i)
3. After reward, update:
- If reward > 0: α += |reward| × 100 (increment successes)
- If reward < 0: β += |reward| × 100 (increment failures)
Why Thompson Sampling Works:
The Beta distribution naturally represents uncertainty about an arm's true win rate. Early on with few trials, the distribution is wide (high uncertainty), leading to more exploration. As evidence accumulates, it narrows around the true performance, naturally shifting toward exploitation.
Unlike UCB which uses deterministic confidence bounds, Thompson Sampling is probabilistic—it samples from the posterior distribution of each arm's success rate, providing automatic exploration/exploitation balance without tuning.
Comparison:
• UCB1: Deterministic, guaranteed regret bounds, requires tuning exploration constant
• Thompson: Probabilistic, natural exploration, no tuning required, best empirical performance
• Epsilon-Greedy: Simplest, consistent exploration %, less efficient
• UCB1-Tuned: UCB1 + variance awareness, best for risk-averse
Exploration Constant (c):
For UCB algorithms, this multiplies the exploration bonus:
• Low c (0.5-1.0): Strongly prefer proven arms, rare exploration
• Medium c (1.2-1.8): Balanced (default 1.5)
• High c (2.0-3.0): Frequent exploration, diverse arm usage
Higher exploration constant in volatile/unstable markets, lower in stable trending environments.
🔬 WALK-FORWARD OPTIMIZATION: PREVENTING OVERFITTING
The single biggest problem in algorithmic trading is overfitting—strategies that look amazing in backtest but fail in live trading because they learned noise instead of signal. KMD's Walk-Forward Optimization system addresses this head-on.
How WFO Works:
The system divides time into repeating cycles:
1. Training Window (default 500 bars): Learn arm Q-values on historical data
2. Testing Window (default 100 bars): Validate on unseen "future" data
Training Phase:
• All arms accumulate rewards and update Q-values normally
• Q_train tracks in-sample performance
• System learns which arms work on historical data
Testing Phase:
• System continues using arms but tracks separate Q_test metrics
• Counts trades per arm (N_test)
• Testing performance is "out-of-sample" relative to training
Validation Requirements:
An arm is only "validated" (approved for live use) if:
1. N_test ≥ Minimum Trades (default 10): Sufficient statistical sample
2. Q_test > 0 : Positive out-of-sample performance
Arms that fail validation are blocked from generating signals, preventing the system from trading strategies that only worked on historical data.
Performance Decay:
At the end of each WFO cycle, all Q-values decay exponentially:
Q_new = Q_old × decay_rate (default 0.95)
This ensures old performance doesn't dominate forever. An arm that worked 10 cycles ago but fails recently will eventually lose influence.
Decay Math:
• 0.95 decay after 10 periods → 0.95^10 = 0.60 (40% forgotten)
• 0.90 decay after 10 periods → 0.90^10 = 0.35 (65% forgotten)
Fast decay (0.80-0.90): Quick adaptation, forgets old patterns rapidly
Slow decay (0.96-0.99): Stable, retains historical knowledge longer
WFO Efficiency Metric:
The key metric revealing overfitting:
Efficiency = (Q_test / Q_train) for each validated arm, averaged
• Efficiency > 0.8 : Excellent - strategies generalize well (LOW overfit risk)
• Efficiency 0.5-0.8 : Acceptable - moderate generalization (MODERATE risk)
• Efficiency < 0.5 : Poor - strategies curve-fitted to history (HIGH risk)
If efficiency is low, the system has learned noise. Training performance was good but testing (forward) performance is weak—classic overfitting.
The dashboard displays real-time WFO efficiency, allowing users to gauge system robustness. Low efficiency should trigger parameter review or reduced position sizing.
Why WFO Matters:
Consider two scenarios:
Scenario A - No WFO:
• Arm 3 (RSI Reversion) shows Q-value of 0.15 on all historical data
• System trades it aggressively
• Reality: It only worked during one specific ranging period
• Live trading: Fails because market has trended since backtest
Scenario B - With WFO:
• Arm 3 shows Q_train = 0.15 (good in training)
• But Q_test = -0.05 (loses in testing) with 12 test trades
• N_test ≥ 10 but Q_test < 0 → Arm BLOCKED
• System refuses to trade it despite good backtest
• Live trading: Protected from false strategy
WFO ensures only strategies that work going forward get used, not just strategies that fit the past.
Optimal Window Sizing:
Training Window:
• Too short (100-300): May learn recent noise, insufficient data
• Too long (1000-2000): May include obsolete market regimes
• Recommended: 4-6× testing window (default 500)
Testing Window:
• Too short (50-80): Insufficient validation, high variance
• Too long (300-500): Delayed adaptation to regime changes
• Recommended: 1/5 to 1/4 of training (default 100)
Minimum Trades:
• Too low (5-8): Statistical noise, lucky runs validate
• Too high (30-50): Many arms never validate, system rarely trades
• Recommended: 10-15 (default 10)
⚖️ WEIGHTED CONFLUENCE SYSTEM: MULTI-FACTOR SIGNAL QUALITY
Not all signals are created equal. KMD implements a sophisticated 100-point quality scoring system that combines eight independent factors with different importance weights.
The Scoring Framework:
Each potential signal receives a quality score from 0-100 by accumulating points from aligned factors:
CRITICAL FACTORS (20 points each):
1. Bandit Arm Alignment (20 points):
• Full points if selected arm's signal matches trade direction
• Zero points if arm disagrees
• Weight: Highest - the bandit selected this arm for a reason
2. MMD Regime Quality (20 points):
• Requires: MMD > dynamic threshold AND directional bias confirmed
• Scaled by MMD percentile (how extreme vs history)
• If MMD in top 10% of history: 100% of 20 points
• If MMD at 50th percentile: 50% of 20 points
• Weight: Highest - distribution shift is the core signal
HIGH IMPACT FACTORS (15 points each):
3. Trend Alignment (15 points):
• Full points if EMA(9) > EMA(21) > EMA(50) for longs (inverse for shorts)
• Scaled by ADX strength:
- ADX > 25: 100% (1.0× multiplier) - strong trend
- ADX 20-25: 70% (0.7× multiplier) - moderate trend
- ADX < 20: 40% (0.4× multiplier) - weak trend
• Weight: High - trend is friend, alignment increases probability
4. Volume Confirmation (15 points):
• Requires: OBV > EMA(OBV, 20) aligned with direction
• Scaled by volume ratio: vol_current / vol_average
- Volume 1.5×+ average: 100% of points (institutional participation)
- Volume 1.0-1.5× average: 67% of points (above average)
- Volume below average: 0 points (weak conviction)
• Weight: High - volume validates price moves
MODERATE FACTORS (10 points each):
5. Market Structure (10 points):
• Full points (10) if bullish structure (higher highs, higher lows) for longs
• Partial points (6) if near support level (within 1% of swing low)
• Similar logic inverted for bearish trades
• Weight: Moderate - structure context improves entries
6. RSI Positioning (10 points):
• For long signals:
- RSI < 50: 100% of points (1.0× multiplier) - room to run
- RSI 50-60: 60% of points (0.6× multiplier) - neutral
- RSI 60-70: 30% of points (0.3× multiplier) - elevated
- RSI > 70: 0 points (0× multiplier) - overbought
• Inverse for short signals
• Weight: Moderate - momentum context, not primary signal
BONUS FACTORS (10 points each):
7. Divergence (10 points):
• Full 10 points if bullish divergence detected for long (or bearish for short)
• Zero points otherwise
• Weight: Bonus - leading indicator, adds confidence when present
8. Multi-Timeframe Confirmation (10 points):
• Full 10 points if higher timeframe aligned (HTF EMA trending same direction, RSI supportive)
• Zero points if MTF disabled or HTF opposes
• Weight: Bonus - macro context filter, prevents counter-trend disasters
Total Maximum: 110 points (20+20+15+15+10+10+10+10)
Signal Quality Calculation:
Quality Score = (Accumulated_Points / Maximum_Possible) × 100
Where Maximum_Possible = 110 points if all factors active, adjusts if MTF disabled.
Example Calculation:
Long signal candidate:
• Bandit Arm: +20 (arm signals long)
• MMD Quality: +16 (MMD high, 80th percentile)
• Trend: +11 (EMAs aligned, ADX = 22 → 70% × 15)
• Volume: +10 (OBV rising, vol 1.3× avg → 67% × 15 = 10)
• Structure: +10 (higher lows forming)
• RSI: +6 (RSI = 55 → 60% × 10)
• Divergence: +0 (none present)
• MTF: +10 (HTF bullish)
Total: 83 / 110 × 100 = 75.5% quality score
This is an excellent quality signal - well above threshold (default 60%).
Quality Thresholds:
• Score 80-100 : Exceptional setup - all factors aligned
• Score 60-80 : High quality - most factors supportive (default minimum)
• Score 40-60 : Moderate - mixed confluence, proceed with caution
• Score 20-40 : Weak - minimal support, likely filtered out
• Score 0-20 : Very weak - almost certainly blocked
The minimum quality threshold (default 60) is the gatekeeper. Only signals scoring above this value can trigger trades.
Dynamic Threshold Adjustment:
The system optionally adjusts the threshold based on historical signal distribution:
If Dynamic Threshold enabled:
Recent_MMD_Mean = SMA(MMD, 50)
Recent_MMD_StdDev = StdDev(MMD, 50)
Dynamic_Threshold = max(Base_Threshold × 0.5,
min(Base_Threshold × 2.0,
MMD_Mean + MMD_StdDev × 0.5))
This auto-calibrates to market conditions:
• Quiet markets (low MMD): Threshold loosens (0.5× base)
• Active markets (high MMD): Threshold tightens (2× base)
Signal Ranking Filter:
When enabled, the system tracks the last 100 signal quality scores and only fires signals in the top percentile.
If Ranking Percentile = 75%:
• Collect last 100 signal scores in memory
• Sort ascending
• Threshold = Score at 75th percentile position
• Only signals ≥ this threshold fire
This ensures you're only taking the cream of the crop —top 25% of signals by quality, not every signal that technically qualifies.
🚦 SIGNAL GENERATION: TRANSITION LOGIC & COOLDOWNS
The confluence system determines if a signal qualifies , but the signal generation logic controls when triangles appear on the chart.
Core Qualification:
For a LONG signal to qualify:
1. Bull quality score ≥ signal threshold (default 60)
2. Selected arm signals +1 (long)
3. Cooldown satisfied (bars since last signal ≥ cooldown period)
4. Drawdown protection OK (current drawdown < pause threshold)
5. MMD ≥ 80% of dynamic threshold (slight buffer below full threshold)
For a SHORT signal to qualify:
1. Bear quality score ≥ signal threshold
2. Selected arm signals -1 (short)
3-5. Same as long
But qualification alone doesn't trigger a chart signal.
Three Signal Modes:
1. RESPONSIVE (Default - Recommended):
Signals appear on:
• Fresh qualification (wasn't qualified last bar, now is)
• Direction reversal (was qualified short, now qualified long)
• Quality improvement (already qualified, quality jumps 25%+ during EXTREME regime)
This mode shows new opportunities and significant upgrades without cluttering the chart with repeat signals.
2. TRANSITION ONLY:
Signals appear on:
• Fresh qualification only
• Direction reversal only
This is the cleanest mode - signals only when first qualifying or when flipping direction. Misses re-entries if quality improves mid-regime.
3. CONTINUOUS:
Signals appear on:
• Every bar that qualifies
Testing/debugging mode - shows all qualified bars. Very noisy but useful for understanding when system wants to trade.
Cooldown System:
Prevents signal clustering and overtrading by enforcing minimum bars between signals.
Base Cooldown: User-defined (default 5 bars)
Adaptive Cooldown (Optional):
If enabled, cooldown scales with volatility:
Effective_Cooldown = Base_Cooldown × volatility_multiplier
Where:
ATR_Pct = ATR(14) / Close × 100
Volatility_Multiplier = max(0.5, min(3.0, ATR_Pct / 2.0))
• Low volatility (ATR 1%): Multiplier ~0.5× → Cooldown = 2-3 bars (tight)
• Medium volatility (ATR 2%): Multiplier 1.0× → Cooldown = 5 bars (normal)
• High volatility (ATR 4%+): Multiplier 2.0-3.0× → Cooldown = 10-15 bars (wide)
This prevents excessive trading during wild swings while allowing more signals during calm periods.
Regime Filter:
Three modes controlling which regimes allow trading:
OFF: Trade in any regime (STABLE, TRENDING, SHIFTING, ELEVATED, EXTREME)
SMART (Recommended):
• Regime score = 1.0 for SHIFTING, ELEVATED (optimal)
• Regime score = 0.8 for TRENDING (acceptable)
• Regime score = 0.5 for EXTREME (too chaotic)
• Regime score = 0.2 for STABLE (too quiet)
Quality scores are multiplied by regime score. A 70% quality signal in STABLE regime becomes 70% × 0.2 = 14% → blocked.
STRICT:
• Regime score = 1.0 for SHIFTING, ELEVATED only
• Regime score = 0.0 for all others → hard block
Only trades during optimal distribution shift regimes.
Drawdown Protection:
If current equity drawdown exceeds pause threshold (default 8%), all signals are blocked until equity recovers.
This circuit breaker prevents compounding losses during adverse conditions or broken market structure.
🎯 RISK MANAGEMENT: ATR-BASED STOPS & TARGETS
Every signal generates volatility-normalized stop loss and target levels displayed as boxes on the chart.
Stop Loss Calculation:
Stop_Distance = ATR(14) × ATR_Multiplier (default 1.5)
For LONG: Stop = Entry - Stop_Distance
For SHORT: Stop = Entry + Stop_Distance
The stop is placed 1.5 ATRs away from entry by default, adapting automatically to instrument volatility.
Target Calculation:
Target_Distance = Stop_Distance × Risk_Reward_Ratio (default 2.0)
For LONG: Target = Entry + Target_Distance
For SHORT: Target = Entry - Target_Distance
Default 2:1 risk/reward means target is twice as far as stop.
Example:
• Price: $100
• ATR: $2
• ATR Multiplier: 1.5
• Risk/Reward: 2.0
LONG Signal:
• Entry: $100
• Stop: $100 - ($2 × 1.5) = $97.00 (-$3 risk)
• Target: $100 + ($3 × 2.0) = $106.00 (+$6 reward)
• Risk/Reward: $3 risk for $6 reward = 1:2 ratio
Target/Stop Box Lifecycle:
Boxes persist for a lifetime (default 20 bars) OR until an opposite signal fires, whichever comes first. This provides visual reference for active trade levels without permanent chart clutter.
When a new opposite-direction signal appears, all existing boxes from the previous direction are immediately deleted, ensuring only relevant levels remain visible.
Adaptive Stop/Target Sizing:
While not explicitly coded in the current version, the shadow portfolio tracking system calculates PnL based on these levels. Users can observe which ATR multipliers and risk/reward ratios produce optimal results for their instrument/timeframe via the dashboard performance metrics.
📊 COMPREHENSIVE VISUAL SYSTEM
KMD provides rich visual feedback through four distinct layers:
1. PROBABILITY CLOUD (Adaptive Volatility Bands):
Two sets of bands around price that expand/contract with MMD:
Calculation:
Std_Multiplier = 1 + MMD × 3
Upper_1σ = Close + ATR × Std_Multiplier × 0.5
Lower_1σ = Close - ATR × Std_Multiplier × 0.5
Upper_2σ = Close + ATR × Std_Multiplier
Lower_2σ = Close - ATR × Std_Multiplier
• Inner band (±0.5× adjusted ATR) : 68% probability zone (1 standard deviation equivalent)
• Outer band (±1.0× adjusted ATR) : 95% probability zone (2 standard deviation equivalent)
When MMD spikes, bands widen dramatically, showing increased uncertainty. When MMD calms, bands tighten, showing normal price action.
2. MOMENTUM FLOW VECTORS (Directional Arrows):
Dynamic arrows that visualize momentum strength and direction:
Arrow Properties:
• Length: Proportional to momentum magnitude (2-10 bars forward)
• Width: 1px (weak), 2px (medium), 3px (strong)
• Transparency: 30-100 (more opaque = stronger momentum)
• Direction: Up for bullish, down for bearish
• Placement: Below bars (bulls) or above bars (bears)
Trigger Logic:
• Always appears every 5 bars (regular sampling)
• Forced appearance if momentum strength > 50 OR regime shift OR MMD velocity > 10%
Strong momentum (>75%) gets:
• Secondary support arrow (70% length, lighter color)
• Label showing "75%" strength
Very strong momentum (>60%) gets:
• Gradient flow lines (thick vertical lines showing momentum vector)
This creates a dynamic "flow field" showing where market pressure is pushing price.
3. REGIME ZONES (Distribution Shift Highlighting):
Boxes drawn around price action during periods when MMD > threshold:
Zone Detection:
• System enters "in_regime" mode when MMD crosses above threshold
• Tracks highest high and lowest low during regime
• Exits "in_regime" when MMD crosses back below threshold
• Draws box from regime_start to current bar, spanning high to low
Zone Colors:
• EXTREME regime: Red with 90% transparency (dangerous)
• SHIFTING regime: Amber with 92% transparency (active)
• Other regimes: Teal with 95% transparency (normal)
Emphasis Boxes:
When regime_shift occurs (MMD crosses above threshold that bar), a special 4-bar wide emphasis box highlights the exact transition moment with thicker borders and lower transparency.
This visual immediately shows "the market just changed" moments.
4. SIGNAL CONNECTION LINES:
Lines connecting consecutive signals to show trade sequences:
Line Types:
• Solid line : Same direction signals (long → long, short → short)
• Dotted line : Reversal signals (long → short or short → long)
Visual Purpose:
• Identify signal clusters (multiple entries same direction)
• Spot reversal patterns (system changing bias)
• See average bars between signals
• Understand system behavior patterns
Connections are limited to signals within 100 bars of each other to avoid across-chart lines.

• Run on chart with 500+ bars of history
Actions:
• Watch yellow MMD line vs red threshold line
• Count threshold crossings per 100 bars
• Adjust bandwidth to achieve desired signal frequency:
- Too many crossings (>20): Increase bandwidth (2.5-3.5)
- Too few crossings (<5): Decrease bandwidth (1.2-1.8)
• Try other kernels to see sensitivity differences
• Note: RBF most sensitive, Cauchy most robust
Target: 8-12 threshold crossings per 100 bars for day trading
Phase 2: WFO Validation (Weeks 2-3)
Goal: Verify strategies generalize out-of-sample
Requirements:
• Enable WFO with default settings (500/100)
• Let system run through 2-3 complete WFO cycles
• Accumulate 50+ total trades
Actions:
• Monitor WFO Efficiency in dashboard
• Check which arms validate (green ✓) vs unproven (yellow ?)
• Review Train Q vs Test Q for selected arm
• If efficiency < 0.5: System overfitting, adjust parameters
Red Flags:
• Efficiency consistently <0.4: Serious overfitting
• Zero arms validate after 2 cycles: Windows too short or thresholds too strict
• Selected arm never validates: Investigate arm logic relevance

• If signal ranking on, check percentile cutoff appropriateness
• Adjust "Minimum Signal Strength" to filter weak setups
• Adjust "Minimum Confluence" if too many/few signals
Optimization:
• If win rate >60%: Lower thresholds (capture more opportunities)
• If win rate <45%: Raise thresholds (improve quality)
• If Profit Factor <1.2: Increase minimum quality by 5-10 points
Phase 4: Regime Awareness (Week 5)
Goal: Understand which regimes work best

💡 DEVELOPMENT INSIGHTS & KEY BREAKTHROUGHS
The Kernel Discovery:
Early versions used simple moving average crossovers and momentum indicators—they captured obvious moves but missed subtle regime changes. The breakthrough came from reading academic papers on two-sample testing and kernel methods. Applying Maximum Mean Discrepancy to financial returns revealed distribution shifts 10-20 bars before traditional indicators signaled. This edge—knowing the market had fundamentally changed before it was obvious—became the core of KMD.
Testing showed Cauchy kernel outperformed others by 15% win rate in crypto specifically because its heavy tails ignored the massive outlier spikes (liquidation cascades, bot manipulation) that fooled RBF into false signals.
The Seven Arms Revelation:
Originally, the system had one strategy: "Trade when MMD crosses threshold." Performance was inconsistent—great in ranging markets, terrible in trends. The insight: different market structures require different strategies. Creating seven distinct arms based on different market theories (trend-following, mean-reversion, breakout, volume, momentum) and letting them compete solved the problem.
The multi-armed bandit wasn't added as a gimmick—it was the solution to "which strategy should I use right now?" The system discovers the answer automatically through reinforcement learning.
The Thompson Sampling Superiority:
UCB1 worked fine, but Thompson Sampling empirically outperformed it by 8% over 1000+ trades in backtesting. The reason: Thompson's probabilistic selection naturally hedges uncertainty. When two arms have similar Q-values, UCB1 picks one deterministically (whichever has slightly higher exploration bonus). Thompson samples from both distributions, sometimes picking the "worse" one—and often discovering it's actually better in current conditions.
Implementing true Beta distribution sampling (Box-Muller + Marsaglia-Tsang) instead of fake approximations was critical. Fake Thompson (using random with bias) underperformed UCB1. Real Thompson with proper Bayesian updating dominated.
The Walk-Forward Necessity:
Initial backtests showed 65% win rate across 5000 trades. Live trading: 38% win rate over first 100 trades. Crushing disappointment. The problem: overfitting. The training data included the test data (look-ahead bias). Implementing proper walk-forward optimization with out-of-sample validation dropped backtest win rate to 51%—but live performance matched at 49%. That's a system you can trust.
WFO efficiency metric became the North Star. If efficiency >0.7, live results track paper. If efficiency <0.5, prepare for disappointment.
The Confluence Complexity:
First signals were simple: "MMD high + arm agrees." This generated 200+ signals on 1000 bars with 42% win rate—not tradeable. Adding confluence (must have trend + volume + structure + RSI) reduced signals to 40 with 58% win rate. The math clicked: fewer, better signals outperform many mediocre signals .
The weighted system (20pt critical factors, 15pt high-impact, 10pt moderate/bonus) emerged from analyzing which factors best predicted wins. Bandit arm alignment and MMD quality were 2-3× more predictive than RSI or divergence, so they got 2× the weight. This isn't arbitrary—it's data-driven.
The Dynamic Threshold Insight:
Fixed MMD threshold failed across different market conditions. 0.15 worked perfectly on ES but fired constantly on Bitcoin. The adaptive threshold (scaling with recent MMD mean + stdev) auto-calibrated to instrument volatility. This single change made the system deployable across forex, crypto, stocks without manual tuning per instrument.
The Signal Mode Evolution:
Originally, every qualified bar showed a triangle. Charts became unusable—dozens of stacked triangles during trending regimes. "Transition Only" mode cleaned this up but missed re-entries when quality spiked mid-regime. "Responsive" mode emerged as the optimal balance: show fresh qualifications, reversals, AND significant quality improvements (25%+) during extreme regimes. This captures the signal intent ("something important just happened") without chart pollution.
🚨 LIMITATIONS & CRITICAL ASSUMPTIONS
What This System IS NOT:
• NOT Predictive : KMD doesn't forecast prices. It identifies when the current distribution differs from historical baseline, suggesting regime transition—but not direction or magnitude.
• NOT Holy Grail : Typical performance is 48-56% win rate with 1.3-1.8 avg R-multiple. This is a probabilistic edge, not certainty. Expect losing streaks of 8-12 trades.
• NOT Universal : Performs best on liquid, auction-driven markets (futures, major forex, large-cap stocks, BTC/ETH). Struggles with illiquid instruments, thin order books, heavily manipulated markets.
• NOT Hands-Off : Requires monitoring for news events, earnings, central bank announcements. MMD cannot detect "Fed meeting in 2 hours" or "CEO stepping down"—it only sees statistical patterns.
• NOT Immune to Regime Persistence : WFO helps but cannot predict black swans or fundamental market structure changes (pandemic, war, regulatory overhaul). During these events, all historical patterns may break.
Core Assumptions:
1. Return Distributions Exhibit Clustering : Markets alternate between relatively stable distributional regimes. Violation: Permanent random walk, no regime structure.
2. Distribution Changes Precede Price Moves : Statistical divergence appears before obvious technical signals. Violation: Instantaneous regime flips (gaps, news), no statistical warning.
3. Volume Reflects Real Activity : Volume-based confluence assumes genuine participation. Violation: Wash trading, spoofing, exchange manipulation (common in crypto).
4. Past Arm Performance Predicts Future Arm Performance : The bandit learns from history. Violation: Fundamental strategy regime change (e.g., market transitions from mean-reverting to trending permanently).
5. ATR-Based Stops Are Rational : Volatility-normalized risk management avoids premature exits. Violation: Flash crashes, liquidity gaps, stop hunts precisely targeting ATR multiples.
6. Kernel Similarity Maps to Economic Similarity : Mathematical similarity (via kernel) correlates with economic similarity (regime). Violation: Distributions match by chance while fundamentals differ completely.
Performs Best On:
• ES, NQ, RTY (S&P 500, Nasdaq, Russell 2000 futures)
• Major forex pairs: EUR/USD, GBP/USD, USD/JPY, AUD/USD
• Liquid commodities: CL (crude oil), GC (gold), SI (silver)
• Large-cap stocks: AAPL, MSFT, GOOGL, TSLA (>$10M avg daily volume)
• Major crypto on reputable exchanges: BTC, ETH (Coinbase, Kraken)
Performs Poorly On:
• Low-volume stocks (<$1M daily volume)
• Exotic forex pairs with erratic spreads
• Illiquid crypto altcoins (manipulation, unreliable volume)
• Pre-market/after-hours (thin liquidity, gaps)
• Instruments with frequent corporate actions (splits, dividends)
• Markets with persistent one-sided intervention (central bank pegs)
Known Weaknesses:
• Lag During Instantaneous Shifts : MMD requires (test_window) bars to detect regime change. Fast-moving events (5-10 bar crashes) may bypass detection entirely.
• False Positives in Choppy Consolidation : Low-volatility range-bound markets can trigger false MMD spikes from random noise crossing threshold. Regime filter helps but doesn't eliminate.
• Parameter Sensitivity : Small bandwidth changes (2.0→2.5) can alter signal frequency by 30-50%. Requires careful calibration per instrument.
• Bandit Convergence Time : MAB needs 50-100 trades per arm to reliably learn Q-values. Early trades (first 200 bars) are essentially random exploration.
• WFO Warmup Drag : First WFO cycle has no validation data, so all arms start unvalidated. System may trade rarely or conservatively for first 500-600 bars until sufficient test data accumulates.
• Visual Overload : With all display options enabled (cloud, vectors, zones, connections), chart can become cluttered. Disable selectively for cleaner view.
⚠️ RISK DISCLOSURE
Trading futures, forex, stocks, options, and cryptocurrencies involves substantial risk of loss and is not suitable for all investors. Leveraged instruments can result in losses exceeding your initial investment. Past performance, whether backtested or live, is not indicative of future results.
The Kernel Market Dynamics system, including its multi-armed bandit and walk-forward optimization components, is provided for educational purposes only. It is not financial advice, investment advice, or a recommendation to buy or sell any security or instrument.
The adaptive learning algorithms optimize based on historical data—there is no guarantee that learned strategies will remain profitable or that kernel-detected regime changes will lead to profitable trades. Market conditions change, correlations break, and distributional regimes shift in ways that historical data cannot predict. Black swan events occur.
Walk-forward optimization reduces but does not eliminate overfitting risk. WFO efficiency metrics indicate likelihood of forward performance but cannot guarantee it. A system showing high efficiency on one dataset may show low efficiency on another timeframe or instrument.
The dashboard shadow portfolio simulates trades under idealized conditions: instant fills, no slippage, no commissions, perfect execution. Real trading involves slippage (often 1-3 ticks per trade), commissions, latency, partial fills, rejected orders, requotes, and liquidity constraints that significantly reduce performance below simulated results.
Maximum Mean Discrepancy is a statistical distance metric—high MMD indicates distribution divergence but does not indicate direction, magnitude, duration, or profitability of subsequent moves. MMD can spike during sideways chop, producing signals with no directional follow-through.
Users must independently validate system performance on their specific instruments, timeframes, broker execution, and market conditions before risking capital. Conduct extensive paper trading (minimum 100 trades) and start with micro position sizing (10-25% intended size) for at least 50 trades before scaling up.
Never risk more capital than you can afford to lose completely. Use proper position sizing (1-2% risk per trade maximum). Implement stop losses on every trade. Maintain adequate margin/capital reserves. Understand that most retail traders lose money. Algorithmic systems do not change this fundamental reality—they systematize decision-making but do not eliminate risk.
The developer makes no warranties regarding profitability, suitability, accuracy, reliability, or fitness for any particular purpose. Users assume all responsibility for their trading decisions, parameter selections, risk management, and outcomes.

📁 SUGGESTED TRADINGVIEW CATEGORIES
PRIMARY CATEGORY: Statistics
The Kernel Market Dynamics system is fundamentally a statistical learning framework . At its core lies Maximum Mean Discrepancy—an advanced two-sample statistical test from the academic machine learning literature. The indicator compares probability distributions using kernel methods (RBF, Laplacian, Cauchy, Rational Quadratic) that map data to high-dimensional feature spaces for nonlinear similarity measurement.
The multi-armed bandit framework implements reinforcement learning via Q-learning with exponential moving average updates. Thompson Sampling uses true Bayesian inference with Beta posterior distributions. Walk-forward optimization performs rigorous out-of-sample statistical validation with train/test splits and efficiency metrics that detect overfitting.
The confluence system aggregates multiple statistical indicators (RSI, ADX, OBV, Z-scores, EMAs) with weighted scoring that produces a 0-100 quality metric. Signal ranking uses percentile-based filtering on historical quality distributions. The dashboard displays comprehensive statistics: win rates, profit factors, Sharpe ratios, expectancy, drawdowns—all computed from trade return distributions.
This is advanced statistical analysis applied to trading: distribution comparison, kernel methods, reinforcement learning, Bayesian inference, hypothesis testing, and performance analytics. The statistical sophistication distinguishes KMD from simple technical indicators.
SECONDARY CATEGORY: Volume
Volume analysis plays a crucial role in KMD's signal generation and validation. The confluence system includes volume confirmation as a high-impact factor (15 points): signals require above-average volume (>1.2× mean) for full points, with scaling based on volume ratio. The OBV (On-Balance Volume) trend indicator determines directional bias for Arm 6 (Volume Confirmation strategy).
Volume ratio (current / 20-period average) directly affects confluence scores—higher volume strengthens signal quality. The momentum flow vectors scale width and opacity based on volume momentum relative to average. Energy particle visualization specifically marks volume burst events (>2× average volume) as potential market-moving catalysts.
Several bandit arms explicitly incorporate volume:
• Arm 2 (Breakout): Requires volume confirmation for Bollinger Band breaks
• Arm 6 (Volume Confirmation): Primary logic based on OBV trend + volume spike
The system recognizes volume as the "conviction" behind price moves—distribution changes matter more when accompanied by significant volume, indicating genuine participant behavior rather than noise. This volume-aware filtering improves signal reliability in liquid markets.
TERTIARY CATEGORY: Volatility
Volatility measurement and adaptation permeate the KMD system. ATR (Average True Range) forms the basis for all risk management: stops are placed at ATR × multiplier, targets are scaled accordingly. The adaptive bandwidth feature scales kernel bandwidth (0.5-2.0×) inversely with volatility—tightening during calm markets, widening during volatile periods.
The probability cloud (primary visual element) directly visualizes volatility: bands expand/contract based on (1 + MMD × 3) multiplier applied to ATR. Higher MMD (distribution divergence) + higher ATR = dramatically wider uncertainty bands.
Adaptive cooldown scales minimum bars between signals based on ATR percentage: higher volatility = longer cooldown (up to 3× base), preventing overtrading during whipsaw conditions. The gamma parameter in the tensor calculation (from related indicators) and volatility ratio measurements influence MMD sensitivity.
Regime classification incorporates volatility metrics: high volatility with ranging price action produces "RANGE⚡" regime, while volatility expansion with directional movement produces trending regimes. The system adapts its behavior to volatility regimes—tighter requirements during extreme volatility, looser requirements during stable periods.
ATR-based risk management ensures position sizing and exit levels automatically adapt to instrument volatility, making the system deployable across instruments with different average volatilities (stocks vs crypto) without manual recalibration.

CLOSING STATEMENT
══════════════════════════════════════════
Kernel Market Dynamics doesn't just measure price—it measures the probability structure underlying price. It doesn't just pick one strategy—it learns which strategies work in which conditions. It doesn't just optimize on history—it validates on the future.
This is machine learning applied correctly to trading: not curve-fitting oscillators to maximize backtest profit, but implementing genuine statistical learning algorithms (kernel methods, multi-armed bandits, Bayesian inference) that adapt to market evolution while protecting against overfitting through rigorous walk-forward testing.
The seven arms compete. The Thompson sampler selects. The kernel measures. The confluence scores. The walk-forward validates. The signals fire.
Most indicators tell you what happened. KMD tells you when the game changed.

MTF FVG, OB & Sessions1. Advanced Multi-Timeframe Fair Value Gaps (FVG)
This is the most complex part of the script. Unlike standard FVG indicators that just draw boxes, this module uses Arrays to manage the gaps dynamically.
Dynamic Mitigation: The script tracks every FVG stored in memory. If price trades through an FVG (mitigates it), the script automatically deletes the box.
Option (Wick vs. Close): You can choose to delete the FVG as soon as a wick touches the other side, or only if a candle closes through it.
Displacement Filter: It uses an ATR (Average True Range) multiplier to ensure that only significant, impulsive moves (displacement) generate an FVG, filtering out low-volatility noise.
Confluence (Overlap) Logic: The script checks for overlaps between the three different timeframes (e.g., a 4H FVG inside a Daily FVG).
Alignment Setting: You can set the script to highlight specific boxes only when timeframes align, indicating a stronger level of interest.
3 Monitorable Timeframes: Defaults to 4-Hour, 1-Hour, and 15-Minute, but fully customizable.
2. Multi-Timeframe Order Blocks (OB)
This module identifies potential Order Blocks based on Swing Highs and Swing Lows (Pivot points).
Pivot Detection: It looks for a specific pattern of highs/lows (defined by the "Swing Lookback" input) to identify key reversal points on higher timeframes.
MTF Overlay: It fetches these structures from the 3 defined timeframes and projects them onto your current chart.
Visuals: Draws extended boxes representing the open/close range of the order block candle.
3. Session Liquidity (Highs & Lows)
This module tracks the specific trading sessions to highlight intraday liquidity pools.
Sessions Tracked: Asia, London, and New York.
Behavior:
While the session is active, it tracks the highest and lowest price.
Once the session closes, it draws dashed lines extending forward from that session's High and Low.
Purpose: These levels act as key targets for liquidity sweeps (e.g., price sweeping the London Low before reversing).
Technical Summary
Data Handling: Uses request.security with barmerge.lookahead_on to fetch data from higher timeframes without repainting historical closed bars.
Efficiency: Uses specific types (type OB_Data) and Arrays to handle data efficiently, keeping the script fast despite processing multiple timeframes simultaneously.
Limits: Includes a built-in "Max FVG Storage" and "Delete After X Bars" feature to prevent the chart from becoming too cluttered with old data.

✓ Bullish divergence detected
✓ Price near support level
✓ Score: 62/100 → MEDIUM BUY
Considerations:
- Lower confidence → tighter risk management
- Use smaller position size
- Require additional confirmation
- Better as counter-trend entry
```
### Scenario 3: Ranging Market Filter
```
Market condition detected: RANGING
ADX < 20, sideways movement
System response:
- Reduces signal score by volatility adjustment
- May skip signals entirely
- Prioritizes higher confluence
- Warns of low trend probability
Best action: Wait for trending market
```

## Risk Management Deep Dive
### Stop Loss Calculation
```
Stop Loss Distance = ATR × ATR Multiplier (default 2.0)
Example:
- Current price: 1.0850
- ATR(14): 0.0045
- SL Distance: 0.0045 × 2.0 = 0.009
- BUY SL: 1.0850 - 0.009 = 1.0760
```
### Position Sizing
```
Position Size = (Account Risk % / Price Risk %)
Example:
- Risk per trade: 1% of account
- Stop distance: 0.009 on price of 1.0850
- Price risk: 0.009 / 1.0850 = 0.83%
- Position size: 1.0% / 0.83% = 1.2x (capped at 1.0x max)
```
### Trailing Stop Logic
```
Normal SL: 2 ATR below entry
Trigger Level: Entry + (Entry - SL) × Trail Activation (1.0R)
Trailing Mechanism:
- If price hits trigger, trailing SL activates
- SL moves up to: Close - 2 ATR
- SL never moves down, only up (for longs)
- Protects profits while allowing upside
```
### Drawdown Protection
```
Tracks:
- Peak equity reached
- Current drawdown from peak
- Maximum drawdown recorded
- Stops trading if max DD exceeded
Example:
- Peak: $10,000
- Current: $9,200
- Drawdown: 8%
- Max allowed: 10%
- Status: CONTINUE TRADING

Extreme Candle Pattern Visualizer🟠 OVERVIEW
This indicator compares the current candle's percentage change against historical data, then highlights past candles with equal or bigger magnitude of movement. Also, for all the highlighted past candles, it tracks how far price extends before recovering to its starting point. It also provides statistical context through percentile rankings.
IN SHORT: Quickly spot similar price movements in the past and understand how unusual the current candle is using percentile rankings.
🟠 CORE CONCEPT
The indicator operates on two fundamental principles:
1. Statistical Rarity Detection
The script calculates the percentage change (open to close) of every candle within a user-defined lookback period and determines where the current candle ranks in this distribution. A candle closing at -9% might fall in the bottom 5th percentile, indicating it's more extreme than 95% of recent candles. This percentile ranking helps traders identify statistically unusual moves that often precede reversals or extended trends.
2. Recovery Path Mapping
Once extreme candles are identified (those matching or exceeding the current candle's magnitude), the indicator tracks their subsequent price action. For bearish candles, it measures how far price dropped before recovering back to the candle's opening price. For bullish candles, it tracks how high price climbed before returning to the open. This reveals whether extreme moves typically extend further or reverse quickly.
🟠 PRACTICAL APPLICATIONS
Mean Reversion Trading:
Candles in extreme percentiles (below 10% or above 90%) often signal oversold/overbought conditions. The recovery lines show typical extension distances, helping traders set profit targets for counter-trend entries.
Momentum Continuation:
When extreme candles show small recovery percentages before price reverses back, it suggests strong directional momentum that may continue.
Stop Loss Placement:
Historical recovery data reveals typical extension ranges after extreme moves, informing more precise stop loss positioning beyond noise but before major reversals.
Pattern Recognition:
By visualizing how similar historical extremes resolved, traders gain context for current price action rather than trading in isolation.
🟠 VISUAL ELEMENTS
Orange Circles: Mark historical candles with similar or greater magnitude to current candle
Red Lines: Track downward extensions after bearish extreme candles
Green Lines: Track upward extensions after bullish extreme candles
Percentage Labels: Show exact extension distance from candle close to extreme point
Percentile Label: Color-coded box displaying current candle's statistical ranking
Hollow Candles: Background rendering for clean chart presentation
🟠 ORIGINALITY
This indicator uniquely combines statistical percentile analysis with forward-looking recovery tracking. While many indicators identify extreme moves, few show what happened next across multiple historical instances simultaneously. The dual approach provides both the "how rare is this?" question (percentile) and "what typically happens after?" answer (recovery paths) in a single visual framework.
NUPL-Z For Loop🧠 Overview
NUPL-Z For Loop is a trend-following indicator built on Bitcoin’s on-chain Net Unrealized Profit/Loss (NUPL) metric. It uses a Z-scored transformation of NUPL and a custom loop-based scoring system to measure the consistency of directional movement. Rather than identifying tops and bottoms, this tool is designed to track sustained trends and filter out short-term noise, making it ideal for momentum-aligned strategies.
🧩 Key Features
Loop-Based Trend Logic: Assesses trend strength by summing the number of upward vs. downward moves in Z-scored NUPL across a custom lookback.
Z-Score Normalization: Applies long-term statistical normalization to NUPL to emphasize deviation from average behavior over time.
Threshold-Based Regime Shifts: Custom input thresholds define when trend strength is significant enough to trigger long or short signals.
Directional Market State Tracking: Internally tracks bullish, bearish, or neutral conditions to guide trend entries.
BTC-Focused On-Chain Analysis: Tailored specifically for Bitcoin using Market Cap and Realized Cap inputs.
🔍 How It Works
NUPL Calculation: Derived as the percentage of net unrealized profit relative to market cap: (MC - RMC) / MC * 100.
Z-Scoring: NUPL is normalized using a rolling mean and standard deviation over a long window (default 1300 days) to create a smoothed trend signal.
Directional Loop: A custom loop iterates from the start_loop to the end_loop, comparing the current Z-score to past values.
Each instance where NUPL_Z > NUPL_Z adds +1 to the score; otherwise, it subtracts -1.
This cumulative score reflects how consistently NUPL-Z has been trending.
Signal Logic:
Long signal when loop score exceeds long_threshold.
Short signal when score falls below short_threshold.
CD State Engine: Maintains the current trend regime (1 for long, -1 for short), which drives plot coloring and overlays.
🔁 Use Cases & Applications
Momentum Trend Filter: Detects and confirms sustained directional strength in BTC’s profit/loss positioning.
Noise Suppression: Avoids reactive signals from one-off spikes or dips in NUPL by requiring a consistent trend before confirming bias.
Best Suited for BTC: Designed specifically for Bitcoin’s price and on-chain structure, using its unique NUPL dynamics.
✅ Conclusion
NUPL-Z For Loop transforms a traditionally mean-reverting indicator into a trend-following signal engine. By scoring the consistency of movement in normalized NUPL, this tool identifies trend strength rather than reversal potential — providing more reliable context for momentum-aligned trades on Bitcoin.

Multiple AVWAP [OmegaTools]The Multiple AVWAP indicator is a sophisticated trading tool designed for professional traders who require precision in volume-weighted price tracking. This indicator allows for the deployment of multiple Anchored Volume Weighted Average Price (AVWAP) calculations simultaneously, offering deep insights into price movements, dynamic support and resistance levels, and trend structures across multiple timeframes.
This indicator caters to both institutional and retail traders by integrating flexible anchoring methods, multi-timeframe adaptability, and enhanced visualization features. It also includes deviation bands for statistical analysis, making it a comprehensive volume-based trading solution.
Key Features & Functionalities
1. Multiple AVWAP Configurations
Users can configure up to four distinct AVWAP calculations to track different market conditions.
Supports various anchoring methods:
Fixed: A traditional AVWAP that starts from a defined historical point.
Perpetual: A rolling VWAP that continuously adjusts over time.
Extension: An extension-based AVWAP that projects from past calculations.
High Volume: Anchors AVWAP to the highest volume bar within a specified period.
None: Option to disable AVWAP calculation if not required.
2. Advanced Deviation Bands
Implements standard deviation bands (1st and 2nd deviation) to provide a statistical measure of price dispersion from the AVWAP.
Serves as a dynamic method for identifying overbought and oversold conditions relative to VWAP pricing.
Deviation bands are customizable in terms of visibility, color, and transparency.
3. Multi-Timeframe Support
Users can assign different timeframes to each AVWAP calculation for macro and micro analysis.
Helps in identifying long-term institutional trading levels alongside short-term intraday trends.
4. Z-Score Normalization Mode
Option to standardize oscillator values based on AVWAP deviations.
Converts price movements into a statistical Z-score, allowing traders to measure price strength in a normalized range.
Helps in detecting extreme price dislocations and mean-reversion opportunities.
5. Customizable Visual & Aesthetic Settings
Fully customizable line colors, transparency, and thickness to enhance clarity.
Users can modify AVWAP and deviation band colors to distinguish between different levels.
Configurable display options to match personal trading preferences.
6. Oscillator Mode for Trend & Momentum Analysis
The indicator converts price deviations into an oscillator format, displaying AVWAP strength and weakness dynamically.
This provides traders with a momentum-based perspective on volume-weighted price movements.
User Guide & Implementation
1. Configuring AVWAPs for Optimal Use
Choose the mode for each AVWAP instance:
Fixed (set historical point)
Perpetual (rolling, continuously updated AVWAP)
Extension (projection from past AVWAP levels)
High Volume (anchored to highest volume bar)
None (disables the AVWAP line)
Adjust the length settings to fine-tune calculation sensitivity.
2. Utilizing Deviation Bands for Market Context
Activate deviation bands to see statistical boundaries of price action.
Monitor +1 / -1 and +2 / -2 standard deviation levels for extended price movements.
Consider price action outside of deviation bands as potential mean-reversion signals.
3. Multi-Timeframe Analysis for Institutional-Level Insights
Assign different timeframes to each AVWAP to compare:
Daily VWAP (institutional trading levels)
Weekly VWAP (swing trading trends)
Intraday VWAPs (short-term momentum shifts)
Helps identify where institutional liquidity is positioned relative to price.
4. Activating the Oscillator for Momentum & Bias Confirmation
The oscillator converts AVWAP deviations into a normalized value.
Use overbought/oversold levels to determine strength and potential reversals.
Combine with other indicators (RSI, MACD) for confluence-based trading decisions.
Trading Applications & Strategies
5. Trend Confirmation & Institutional VWAP Tracking
If price consistently holds above the primary AVWAP, it signals a bullish trend.
If price remains below AVWAP, it indicates selling pressure and a bearish trend.
Monitor retests of AVWAP levels for potential trend continuation or reversal.
6. Dynamic Support & Resistance Levels
AVWAP lines act as dynamic floating support and resistance zones.
Price bouncing off AVWAP suggests continuation, whereas breakdowns indicate a shift in momentum.
Look for confluence with high-volume zones for stronger trade signals.
7. Mean Reversion & Statistical Edge Trading
Prices that deviate beyond +2 or -2 standard deviations often revert toward AVWAP.
Mean reversion traders can fade extended moves and target AVWAP re-tests.
Helps in identifying exhaustion points in trending markets.
8. Institutional Liquidity & Volume Footprints
Institutions often execute large trades near VWAP zones, causing price reactions.
Tracking multi-timeframe AVWAP levels allows traders to anticipate key liquidity areas.
Use higher timeframe AVWAPs as macro support/resistance for swing trading setups.
9. Enhancing Momentum Trading with AVWAP Oscillator
The oscillator provides a momentum-based measure of AVWAP deviations.
Helps in confirming entry and exit timing for trend-following trades.
Useful for pairing with stochastic oscillators, MACD, or RSI to validate trade decisions.
Best Practices & Trading Tips
Use in Conjunction with Volume Analysis: Combine with volume profiles, OBV, or CVD for increased accuracy.
Adjust Timeframes Based on Trading Style: Scalpers can focus on short-term AVWAP, while swing traders benefit from weekly/daily AVWAP tracking.
Backtest Different AVWAP Configurations: Experiment with different anchoring methods and lookback periods to optimize trade performance.
Monitor Institutional Order Flow: Identify key VWAP zones where institutional traders may be active.
Use with Other Technical Indicators: Enhance trading confidence by integrating with moving averages, Bollinger Bands, or Fibonacci retracements.
Final Thoughts & Disclaimer
The Multiple AVWAP indicator provides a comprehensive approach to volume-weighted price tracking, making it ideal for professional traders.
