Trend Reversal Composite Index
Overview
The "Trend Reversal Composite Index" (TRCI) is a comprehensive technical analysis tool that combines several indicators to identify potential trend reversals and assess the overall market pulse. The script integrates a variety of technical indicators, including RSI, Stochastic, MACD, Bollinger Bands, Williams %R, OBV, ADX, ATR, and the Relative Volatility Index, each with adjustable weights to fine-tune their influence on the composite scores.
Key Features
Customization : Users can select the "Standardization Type" (Normalized or Z-Score) to standardize indicator values, catering to different analysis preferences.
Composite Scores : The script calculates two main composite scores: the "Trend Reversal Composite" and the "Market Pulse Composite," each derived from a weighted sum of standardized indicator values.
Indicator Weighting : Each indicator's impact on the composite scores can be adjusted through user-defined weights, enabling personalized sensitivity settings.
Dynamic Visuals : The script plots the composite scores and their exponential moving averages (EMAs) on the chart, offering a clear visualization of the market's condition and trend reversals.
Signal Identification : It provides clear "go long" and "go short" signals based on the crossover and crossunder of the composite score and predefined thresholds, assisting in decision-making.
Utility and Originality
TRCI stands out due to its integrative approach, combining multiple indicators into a single composite index. This not only simplifies the analysis by providing a consolidated view of various signals but also enhances the decision-making process by aggregating the predictive power of individual indicators. Its flexibility in customization through adjustable weights and standardization types allows users to tailor the tool according to their trading style and market conditions.
Implementation and Usage
To utilize the TRCI effectively, traders should first experiment with the weights of different indicators based on their trading strategy and the market's volatility. The composite scores offer a straightforward interpretation: higher values may indicate potential buying opportunities, while lower values could signal selling points. The inclusion of EMAs further aids in smoothing out the signals, providing a more reliable indicator of trend direction.
Conclusion
The "Trend Reversal Composite Index" is a versatile and innovative tool for traders looking to streamline their technical analysis and enhance their decision-making process. Its combination of multiple indicators into composite scores, customizable through user-defined weights, makes it a valuable addition to any trader's toolkit.

Neural Network Synthesis: Trend and Valuation [QuantraSystems]Neural Network Synthesis - Trend and Valuation
Introduction
The Neural Network Synthesis (𝓝𝓝𝒮𝔂𝓷𝓽𝓱) indicator is an innovative technical analysis tool which leverages neural network concepts to synthesize market trend and valuation insights.
This indicator uses a bespoke neural network model to process various technical indicator inputs, providing an improved view of market momentum and perceived value.
Legend
The main visual component of the 𝓝𝓝𝒮𝔂𝓷𝓽𝓱 indicator is the Neural Synthesis Line , which dynamically oscillates within the valuation chart, categorizing market conditions as both under or overvalued and trending up or down.
The synthesis line coloring can be set to trend analysis or valuation modes , which can be reflected in the bar coloring.
The sine wave valuation chart oscillates around a central, volatility normalized ‘fair value’ line, visually conveying the natural rhythm and cyclical nature of asset markets.
The positioning of the sine wave in relation to the central line can help traders to visualize transitions from one market phase to another - such as from an undervalued phase to fair value or an overvalued phase.
Case Study 1
The asset in question experiences a sharp, inefficient move upwards. Such movements suggest an overextension of price, and mean reversion is typically expected.
Here, a short position was initiated, but only after the Neural Synthesis line confirmed a negative trend - to mitigate the risk of shorting into a continuing uptrend.
Two take-profit levels were set:
The midline or ‘fair value’ line.
The lower boundary of the 𝓝𝓝𝒮𝔂𝓷𝓽𝓱 indicators valuation chart.
Although mean-reversion trades are typically closed when price returns to the mean, under circumstances of extreme overextension price often overcorrects from an overbought condition to an oversold condition.
Case Study 2
In the above study, the 𝓝𝓝𝒮𝔂𝓷𝓽𝓱 indicator is applied to the 1 Week Bitcoin chart in order to inform long term investment decisions.
Accumulation Zones - Investors can choose to dollar cost average (DCA) into long term positions when the 𝓝𝓝𝒮𝔂𝓷𝓽𝓱 indicates undervaluation
Distribution Zones - Conversely, when overvalued conditions are indicated, investors are able to incrementally sell holdings expecting the market peak to form around the distribution phase.
Note - It is prudent to pay close attention to any change in trend conditions when the market is in an accumulation/distribution phase, as this can increase the likelihood of a full-cycle market peak forming.
In summary, the 𝓝𝓝𝒮𝔂𝓷𝓽𝓱 indicator is also an effective tool for long term investing, especially for assets like Bitcoin which exhibit prolonged bull and bear cycles.
Special Note
It is prudent to note that because markets often undergo phases of extreme speculation, an asset's price can remain over or undervalued for long periods of time, defying mean-reversion expectations. In these scenarios it is important to use other forms of analysis in confluence, such as the trending component of the 𝓝𝓝𝒮𝔂𝓷𝓽𝓱 indicator to help inform trading decisions.
A special feature of Quantra’s indicators is that they are probabilistically built - therefore they work well as confluence and can easily be stacked to increase signal accuracy.
Example Settings
As used above.
Swing Trading
Smooth Length = 150
Timeframe = 12h
Long Term Investing
Smooth Length = 30
Timeframe = 1W
Methodology
The 𝓝𝓝𝒮𝔂𝓷𝓽𝓱 indicator draws upon the foundational principles of Neural Networks, particularly the concept of using a network of ‘neurons’ (in this case, various technical indicators). It uses their outputs as features, preprocesses this input data, runs an activation function and in the following creates a dynamic output.
The following features/inputs are used as ‘neurons’:
Relative Strength Index (RSI)
Moving Average Convergence-Divergence (MACD)
Bollinger Bands
Stochastic Momentum
Average True Range (ATR)
These base indicators were chosen for their diverse methodologies for capturing market momentum, volatility and trend strength - mirroring how neurons in a Neural Network capture and process varied aspects of the input data.
Preprocessing:
Each technical indicator’s output is normalized to remove bias. Normalization is a standard practice to preprocess data for Neural Networks, to scale input data and allow the model to train more effectively.
Activation Function:
The hyperbolic tangent function serves as the activation function for the neurons. In general, for complete neural networks, activation functions introduce non-linear properties to the models and enable them to learn complex patterns. The tanh() function specifically maps the inputs to a range between -1 and 1.
Dynamic Smoothing:
The composite signal is dynamically smoothed using the Arnaud Legoux Moving Average, which adjusts faster to recent price changes - enhancing the indicator's responsiveness. It mimics the learning rate in neural networks - in this case for the output in a single layer approach - which controls how much new information influences the model, or in this case, our output.
Signal Processing:
The signal line also undergoes processing to adapt to the selected assets volatility. This step ensures the indicator’s flexibility across assets which exhibit different behaviors - similar to how a Neural Network adjusts to various data distributions.
Notes:
While the indicator synthesizes complex market information using methods inspired by neural networks, it is important to note that it does not engage in predictive modeling through the use of backpropagation. Instead, it applies methodologies of neural networks for real-time market analysis that is both dynamic and adaptable to changing market conditions.
Dynamic Momentum GaugeOverview
The Dynamic Momentum Gauge is an indicator designed to provide information and insights into the trend and momentum of a financial asset. While this indicator is not directional , it helps you know when there will be a trend, big move, or when momentum will have a run, and when you should take profits.
How It Works
This indicator calculates momentum and then removes the negative values to focus instead on when the big trend could likely happen and when it could end, or when you should enter a trade based on momentum or exit. Traders can basically use this indicator to time their market entries or exits, and align their strategies with momentum dynamics.
How To Use
As previously mentioned, this is not a directional indicator but more like a timing indicator. This indicator helps you find when the trend moves, and big moves in the markets will occur and its possibly best to exit the trades. For example, if you decide to enter a long trade if the Dynamic Momentum Gauge value is at an extreme low and another momentum indicator that you use has conditions that you would consider to long with, then this indicator is basically telling you that there isn't more space for the momentum to squeeze any longer, can only really expand from that point or stay where it currently is, but this is also a mean reverting process so it does tend to go back up from the low point.
Settings:
Length: This is the length of the momentum, by default its at 100.
Normalization Length: Length of the Normalization which ensures the the values fall within a consistent range.
VSA Volume Spread AnalysisVolume Spread Analysis with Trend Direction is an indicator designed to Identify trend based volume spread.
Volume
Spread
Trend
This is a very simple yet powerful to identify Trend and corresponding volume Breakout. Unlike other Volume Indicators this indicator detects Breakout along with trend direction. One can detect the Early breakout in volume using this indicator. The Buy or Sell Signal is based on zero crossing of the Histogram.
Trend direction is confirmed using the MA of the Histogram which is similar to the Volume MA on volume indicator. One can enter a trade using the indicator when Trend direction and histogram are in same direction. Entry is done when ever histogram crosses the Trend MA line.
Fake entries can be eliminated by changing the indicator to higher Timeframe.
Spread is determined using the difference in open and close of the candle
Volume change is determined using the ratio of change of volume to previous volume
EMA 10 is used to determine the Spread and multiplied by volume change so the
PRICE(ema10), Volume, Spread(close-open) are merged to one indicator.
Direction changes when ever difference of VSA is positive or negative.
[LCS] Bar HeatmapThe script is an overlay aimed at making price action within a range more comprehensible, i.e. what is the “story” that the band range is telling in relation to the price. You’ll see bars become brighter as they come near the upper or lower band, and dimmer around the average/middle of the two bands. This makes it easier to spot when the price is within an oversold or overbought area or when its experiencing a strong trend movement. The color shift from one to the other can also give a sense as to whether the price action is changing character (going from bullish to bearish or vice versa).
Settings are available for customization to the user's liking.
How to use:
1. Add the indicator.
2. Add another indicator to use as the source, such as Bollinger Bands, which provides upper and lower plots for a channel range.
3. Click the gear icon to access the indicator settings.
4. Mandatory: Select the Upper Band and Lower Band settings as the upper and lower plots from your source indicator of choice to define the range.
5. Save settings. You should now see bars on your chart.
6. Access the Chart Settings (not the indicator settings) and hide the Body, Borders, and Wick for the default candle bars to avoid overlap.
You may need to perform additional configuration steps in your source indicator to appropriately size the range of the upper and lower band plots for a meaningful visualization.
TrendCryptoThe _trendcrypto script is a trading strategy that uses a variety of indicators to identify potential trading opportunities, including the Parabolic SAR, ADX, and RSI.
The script first calculates the RMA, SMA, and trend direction. The RMA is a moving average that is weighted more heavily towards recent prices. The SMA is a simple moving average that gives equal weight to all prices in the period. The trend direction is calculated by comparing the current price to the price a certain number of periods ago.
The script then uses the RMA, SMA, and trend direction to identify potential trading opportunities. If the current price is above the RMA and the trend direction is up, the script will generate a buy signal. If the current price is below the RMA and the trend direction is down, the script will generate a sell signal.
The script also calculates the Parabolic SAR, which is a technical indicator that helps traders identify potential trend reversals. The Parabolic SAR is calculated using a formula that takes into account the high and low prices of a security over a specified period of time.
The script also calculates the ADX, which is a trend strength indicator. The ADX is calculated using a formula that takes into account the difference between the high and low prices of a security, as well as the difference between the closing price and the previous close.
The script also calculates the RSI, which is a momentum indicator that measures the magnitude of recent price changes to evaluate overbought or oversold conditions in the price of a stock or other asset. The RSI is calculated over a specified period of time, and the default value in the code is 14.
The script also allows users to specify a stop loss and take profit level for each trade. The default stop loss level is 4% and the default take profit level is 7%.
Multi VWAP [MW]Introduction
The Multi VWAP tool extends the concept of using the Anchored Volume Weighted Average Price, popularized by its founder, Brian Shannon, founder of AlphaTrends, and creates automatic AVWAPS for multiple anchor points, such as for 2-day, 3-day, 4-day, 5-day, and custom date anchors as well as automagically creating month-to-date and year-to-date anchors. Currently, most standard VWAP tools allow users to place custom anchored VWAPs, but the routine of doing this for every equity being watched can become cumbersome. This tool makes that process multi-times easier. Brian Shannon is also the author of “Maximum Trading Gains With Anchored VWAP: The Perfect Combination of Price, Time, and Volume”. Available at Amazon.
Settings
Daily VWAP : A continuous line of the the daily Volume Weighted Average Price (VWAP)
Weekly VWAP : A continuous line of the weekly VWAP
2-Day AVWAP : The anchored VWAP from 2 trading days ago (holidays and weekends are excluded in this calculation)
3-Day AVWAP : The anchored VWAP from 3 trading days ago
4-Day AVWAP : The anchored VWAP from 4 trading days ago
5-Day AVWAP : The anchored VWAP from 5 trading days ago. The slope of this line and the position of the price relative to this line can be used to determine trend direction.
10-Day AVWAP : The anchored VWAP from 10 trading days ago
Month-to-Date AVWAP : The anchored VWAP from the beginning of the current month
Year-to-Date AVWAP : The anchored VWAP from the beginning of the current year
Custom Date AVWAP : Sets a date to begin an anchored VWAP starting from any time.
Use only the most recent VWAP for Week, Month, and Year: Toggles on and off the continuous weekly, monthly, and yearly VWAPs
Calculations
This indicator does not provide buy or sell signals. It is simply the VWAP calculated starting from an “anchor point”, or start time. It is the calculated by the summation of Price x Volume / Volume for the period starting at the anchor point.
How to Interpret
According to Brian Shannon, VWAP is an objective measure of what the average trader has paid for a particular equity over a given period, and is the value that large institutional investors frequently use as a trade signal. Therefore, by definition, when the price is above an AVWAP, buyers are in control for that period of time. Likewise, if the price is below the AVWAP, sellers are in control for that period of time.
Shannon also distinguishes the importance of an increasing or decreasing 5 day VWAP, which reflects the price sentiment, objectively, for roughly the last trading week, or 5 trading days. Pricing below a decreasing 5-day VWAP is considered very bearish, while pricing above an increasing 5-day VWAP is considered bullish and is recommended before considering long positions.
Additionally, a custom VWAP can be generated to coincide with important events, such as FOMC meetings, CPI reports, earnings reports, etc.
Practically speaking, price action can tend to change direction when a significant VWAP is hit, voiding buy and sell signals. Like moving averages, this indicator can show, in real-time, how a buy or sell signal should be interpreted. A significant AVWAP line is a point of interest, and can serve as strong support or resistance, because large institutions may be using those values for entries or exits. For a great analysis of how to use AVWAP, visit the AlphaTrends channel on Youtube here or you can buy Brian Shannon’s “Anchored VWAP” book on Amazon.
Other Usage Notes and Limitations
It's important for traders to be aware of the limitations of any indicator and to use them as part of a broader, well-rounded trading strategy that includes risk management, fundamental analysis, and other tools that can help with reducing false signals, determining trend direction, and providing additional confirmation for a trade decision. Diversifying strategies and not relying solely on one type of indicator or analysis can help mitigate some of these risks.
Additionally, the indicator may take a little longer to load than usual. On the rare occasion where it fails to load, you may need to remove the indicator and add it back to your chart. Also, if you do encounter this problem, avoid redrawing your chart while the indicator is being added to the screen.
Acknowledgements
This script uses the MarketHolidays library by @Protervus. Also, for debugging, the JavaScript-style Debug Console by @algotraderdev and the TimeFormattingLibrary by @twingall were invaluable. And, of course, without Brian Shannon's books, videos, and interviews, this indicator would would not be possible.
ATR TrendTL;DR - An average true range (ATR) based trend
ATR trend uses a (customizable) ATR calculation and highest high & lowest low prices to calculate the actual trend. Basically it determines the trend direction by using highest high & lowest low and calculates (depending on the determined direction) the ATR trend by using a ATR based calculation and comparison method.
The indicator will draw one trendline by default. It is also possible to draw a second trendline which shows a 'negative trend'. This trendline is calculated the same way the primary trendline is calculated but uses a negative (-1 by default) value for the ATR calculation. This trendline can be used to detect early trend changes and/or micro trends.
How to use:
Due to its ATR nature the ATR trend will show trend changes by changing the trendline direction. This means that when the price crosses the trendline it does not automatically mean a trend change. However using the 'negative trend' option ATR trend can show early trend changes and therefore good entry points.
Some notes:
- A (confirmed) trend change is shown by a changing color and/or moving trendline (up/down)
- Unlike other indicators the 'time period' value is not the primary adjustment setting. This value is only used to calculate highest high & lowest low values and has medium impact on trend calculation. The primary adjustment setting is 'ATR weight'
- Every settings has a tooltip with further explanation
- I added additional color coding which uses a different color when the trend attempts to change but the trend change isn't confirmed (yet)
- Default values work fine (at least in my back testing) but the recommendation is to adjust the settings (especially ATR weight) to your trading style
- You can further finetune this indicator by using custom moving average types for the ATR calculation (like linear regression or Hull moving average)
- Both trendlines can be used to determine future support and resistance zones
- ATR trend can be used as a stop loss finder
- Alerts are using buy/sell signals
- You can use fancy color filling ;)
Happy trading!

OverbalanceOverbalance script tracks trend moves and biggest corrections in those moves.
Based on last trend extreme value (low or high) it can draw line symbolizing correction equal to
the biggest correction in that trend. It can track up to 20 independent (both up and down) trends on one chart.
Overbalance method works on an assumption that trend continues until we have correction bigger than the biggest existing correction in that trend. Comparing the historically biggest correction with the current one can give a warning signal.
There are markets and instruments for which the size of corrections is repeated, and tracking corrections in the trend can be used to predict the trend change moment. - Just remember that if something happened in the past it is not guaranteed that it will happen again.
This script can be used by ANY user. You DO NOT NEED to have PRO or PREMIUM account to use it.
Script settings:
Trend min change - Filter out price moves smaller than % of current price.
OB up - Showing overbalance in up trends
OB down - Showing overbalance in down trends
Historical with precision - Showing corrections moves that were equal to biggest previous correction in that trend with a given (%) precision.
OB prediction up - Showing overbalance threshold in current up trends
OB prediction down - Showing overbalance threshold in current down trends
OB Exceeded - Showing broken overbalance thresholds
Arrows - Showing overbalance thresholds with an arrows
(with labels) - Showing labels over overbalance threshold arrows
Price line - It draws a line at the price level, under the arrows.
Troubleshooting:
In case of any problems, send error details to the author of the script.
CARNAC Magic DCAThe "CARNAC Magic DCA" indicator is designed for investors looking for the best opportunities for Dollar-Cost Averaging (DCA).
How it works:
The Carnac Dynamic DCA Threshold calculates a dynamic threshold for DCA entries using Exponential Moving Average (EMA), Average True Range (ATR), and the maximum distance from the EMA over a full lookback period, aiding in identifying optimal buy opportunities. It also only signals a DCA buying opportunity after a bearish candle, which helps lower the average DCA price.
Configurable Inputs:
EMA Start Length: Sets the initial length for the series of EMAs, affecting their sensitivity to price changes.
ATR Length: Determines the period for the ATR calculation, influencing the dynamic DCA threshold's responsiveness to market volatility.
ATR Multiplier: Modifies the impact of the ATR on the DCA threshold, allowing for finer control over the threshold's sensitivity to volatility.
Start Calculation From: Enables setting a specific start date for calculations, tailoring the analysis to a particular trading period.
DCA Buy Signal Alert: Generates an alert when the price is below both the dynamic DCA threshold and the opening price, indicating a potential buy signal based on DCA strategy.
Ten EMAs: Carnac Magic DCA includes a ten EMA plot, which decrease in length from the user-defined starting length, offering a multi-layered trend analysis.
EMA Color Coding: The sequential arrangement of EMAs is visually represented through color coding, facilitating quick trend recognition.
Average Buy Price Analysis: Calculates and displays the average buy price and its percentage difference from the average closing price since the user-defined start date, helping assess the strategy’s effectiveness compared to traditional DCA methods (purchasing at the close of every candle).
Visual Indicators and Labels: Includes visual alerts for buy signals and informative labels showing average buy prices and related statistics.
Bitcoin/Hash Rate Oscillator & MAWhat it does:
Finds the ratio of BTC price to the Hash Rate with an additional MA applied to find changes in volatility with relative context. Best used as a two lines cross indicator.
When the ratio of price to hashrate increases, it may be a sign miners cannot or will not sell as much.
When the ratio decreases, it may indicate miners have more capability and/or incentive to sell.
How it works:
The indicator uses a MA applied to the hashrate(first MA input), then finds the difference between it and the actual hash rate. Then it finds the STD of that to create an oscillating value. BTC is divided by said value. Then a second MA is applied to that ratio(second MA input)
FX DispersionThis script calculates the dispersion of a basket of 5 FX pairs and then calculates the z-score the z-score is then made into a composite using the 30 and 60 ema of the z-score to smooth any noise. It must be used on one of the FX pairs in the basket and on the 1-minute timeframe as it has been hardcoded for 1 min use below.
Interpretation - Dispersion is a component of volatility - the dispersion of the underlying basket increases above 0.5 and decreases below 0.5.
Although increased dispersion is beneficial to momentum and trend-following strategies on the monthly and weekly timeframes. Observe this on the 1-minute timeframe and how dispersion crossing above/ below 0.5 it can signal reversion or momentum for the next period.

WPO Modified [BackQuant]The Wave Period Oscillator (WPO), developed by Akram El Sherbini, is a sophisticated technical analysis tool that offers traders a dynamic way to interpret market cycles. Its design is inspired by the natural ebb and flow of markets, which often follow cyclical patterns driven by underlying economic, political, and psychological factors. The oscillator's unique contribution to market analysis lies in its ability to smooth out the "noise" inherent in daily price movements, thus providing a clearer view of the market's rhythmic fluctuations over time.
-----> Time Cycle Oscillators' in the IFTA Journal 2018 (page 66 - 77), as found below:
ifta.org
El Sherbini's WPO is grounded in the concept of wave period analysis, which suggests that financial markets move in waves or cycles. The oscillator translates these movements into a visual tool that oscillates above and below a central zero line. Peaks and troughs on the oscillator correspond to the crests and troughs of market price waves, providing a visual representation of the market's heartbeat.
The WPO is not merely a tool for identifying trends but also for detecting shifts in market momentum. It does this through a mathematical model that measures divergence—when the direction of the oscillator deviates from the direction of price movement. Such divergences can be precursors to potential reversals or continuations in the market, offering traders advance notice of significant changes in price direction.
Further refining its utility, the WPO incorporates methods for calculating divergence that are sensitive to the unique conditions of different markets and securities. This includes adjusting for volatility and market velocity, allowing the oscillator to provide relevant signals regardless of the market environment.
In practical terms, traders use the WPO to time their entries and exits with greater precision. When the oscillator shows a high peak or a deep trough, it can signal that a market is potentially overbought or oversold, respectively. The WPO's smoothing property ensures that these signals are not just reactionary to short-term price spikes or drops, but indicative of more substantial, sustained movements.
By providing a more measured and smoothed analysis of market cycles, the WPO helps to filter out insignificant price movements and focus on the ones that matter—those that indicate a significant wave of buying or selling pressure. This can be particularly valuable in the cryptocurrency markets, where volatility is high, and traditional indicators may struggle to provide clear signals.
For traders and analysts alike, the Wave Period Oscillator represents a convergence of technical precision and market psychology. By focusing on the periodic nature of market movements, it aligns traders with the rhythm of the markets, potentially leading to more harmonious trading decisions that are in step with the market's natural waves.

Market Trend Indicator (FinnoVent)The Market Trend Indicator (FinnoVent) is a comprehensive trading tool designed to provide clear visual cues for market trends on TradingView charts. This indicator combines the principles of Exponential Moving Averages (EMAs), Bollinger Bands, the Average Directional Index (ADX), and the Relative Strength Index (RSI) to offer a nuanced view of market movements.
How It Works:
Trend Identification with EMAs: The indicator uses two EMAs (3-period and 30-period) to identify the primary trend. An upward trend is signaled when the 3-period EMA crosses above the 30-period EMA, while a downward trend is indicated when the 3-period EMA crosses below the 30-period EMA.
Sideways Market Detection: To identify sideways trends, the indicator employs Bollinger Bands, ADX, and RSI. A sideways (or consolidating) market condition is identified when:
The price is between the middle 60% of the Bollinger Bands (avoiding the top and bottom 20%).
The ADX is below 30, indicating a lack of a strong trend.
The RSI is between 40 and 60, suggesting a neutral market momentum.
Visual Representation:
Bar Colors: The indicator colors the price bars on the chart based on the identified trend:
Green Bars: Indicate an upward trend.
Red Bars: Indicate a downward trend.
Grey Bars: Indicate a sideways or consolidating market.
How to Use:
Trend Following: Use the colored bars as a guide for trend following. Green bars suggest a potential entry for a long position, while red bars may indicate opportunities for short positions.
Sideways Market Caution: Grey bars signal a sideways market. In such conditions, traders might exercise caution and avoid trend-following strategies, as the market lacks a clear direction.
Complementary Analysis: While the Market Trend Indicator (FinnoVent) provides valuable insights, it's recommended to use it in conjunction with other forms of analysis (like fundamental analysis, other technical indicators, or price action) for comprehensive decision-making.
Suitable for: This indicator is versatile and can be applied to various timeframes and trading instruments, including stocks, forex, commodities, and indices.
Important Notes:
The indicator is designed to minimize repainting but always consider the latest data for the most accurate analysis.
Like all indicators, it is not foolproof. It works best when combined with a solid trading plan and risk management strategies.

The following describes the displayed information and how to use it. It is in three levels: location/displayed text/description.
Upper Left/Week:/
Displays week gain.
Upper Left/Day:/
Displays day’s gain.
Upper Left/SMA:/
Displays SMA’s gain. The SMA gain is calculated from the average difference between the buy and sell alerts and a simple moving average. This makes it easy to compare differences between securities and setting changes. Basically, the SMA gain is the average profit that can be expected from a single buy sell trade, assuming that the security is trending sideways. Note: With a free TradingView account, the data will be limited, and therefore this value will be less accurate.
Upper Center/Misc. text/
A variety of security information is displayed here, including description, country, type, sector, and industry. The analyst's recommendation is also displayed when selected in the settings section.
Upper Right/ #🕪⚠:/
Displays number of audible alerts. This shows how many audible alerts you’ll get per day on average for the selected security. You will see this number change as you adjust the Alert Frequency setting in the indicator settings section.
Lower Right/ ATR × X.X:/
Displays the Average True Range (ATR) multiplied by a multiplier that is located in the indicator settings section. The upper and lower ATR values are also displayed. The Average True Range is a measure of price volatility and can be used for things like trailing stop orders. Place your stop-loss order a multiple of the ATR below your entry price for long trades and above your entry price for short trades. This will give your trade some room to breathe while still protecting you from significant losses. Adjust the multiple based on market volatility. In more volatile markets, use a larger multiple to account for potentially wider price swings.
The following is a description of important items in the indicator settings section:
--- MISC. SETTINGS ---
Alert Frequency
Alert Frequency will increase or decrease both the displayed alerts and audible alerts. This is one of the more important indicator settings and should be adjusted according to your investing style. If you have a large number of active alerts, you may want to reduce the alert frequency to avoid being overwhelmed. However, if you set this too low, you may miss some trading opportunities.
ATR Multiplier
The ATR multiplier is a multiplier for the Average True Range which is described above. It can help with finding trailing stop order values.
Use Sentiment Coloring
This changes the color of some graphs to a color gradient, indicating the security's sentiment, and may help you identify trend changes.
Sentiment Calc Index
This setting mainly affects the sentiment color scheme and the displayed sentiment graph. Adjust it to match the index in which the security is traded. You can find it at the top left of the TradingView window.
Display Analyst’s Recommendations
This will display the analyst's recommendations and could be handy when unsure whether a security is worth investing in. :-)
--- GRAPH DISPLAY SETTINGS ---
These are additional graphs that can be displayed and can be a valuable addition to your investing. Consider displaying the Sentiment MACD and the Divergence RSI which are both variations of the standard MACD and RSI indicators.
--- FALSE ALERT SUPPRESSION ---
These settings will allow suppression of false signals and are an important feature of this indicator. They will manipulate the gain. Watch the displayed SMA Gain and Circle Alerts as you toggle some of these settings. Some Circle Alerts will appear or vanish, and the SMA Gain will change. Remember, the larger circle alerts are the only ones that will be audible. Both small and large circles indicate a buy or sell alert: green for buy and red for sell.

GOLD MonitorI'm using this platform from sometime and I carry out trading on Gold, using a kind of scalping strategy.
Scalping is not an easy task to do. Personally I found a lot of problems while detecting the trend direction.
So I decided to develop an indicator that is capable, in a discrete way, to give an instant-view on the market that is interesting.
This indicator can summarize in a small table all interesting figures related to gold scalping trading and is useful while joined with technical and fundamental analysis.
In this way it is possible to easy take under control all important aspects related to gold trading that I summarize here and you can find inside the table:
1) Gold / USD current direction
2) USD dollar strength (instant DXY) indicator take under consideration the DXY value every each tick and measures the increase or decrease in percentage. If there is a decrease the indicator displays a red low arrow, if there is an increase the indicator displays a green high arrow
also Gold friends are important so it is possible to find also:
3) NZDUSD (that is a Gold friend) variation percentage. If there is a decrease the indicator displays a red low arrow, if there is an increase the indicator displays a green high arrow
4) AUDUSD (that is a Gold friend) variation percentage. If there is a decrease the indicator displays a red low arrow, if there is an increase the indicator displays a green high arrow
then it is possible to find DXY USD dollar strength calculated between previous period (e.g. in timeframe M5 last 5 minutes) and current period (current 5 minutes). This indication is represented by an high arrow if there has been an increase, or by an low arrow if there has been a decrease.
Last but not least the information about the Gold trend itself with the possible forecast for the current period. This information must be carefully interpreted together with other instruments for technical analysis like Fibonacci lines.

TL Three-Color CandleA traditional candle only has two colors, either green or red. A TL candle goes one step further, it has three colors: green for bullish (perfectly bullish), red for bearish (perfectly bearish), and yellow for ranging (wake-up, sleeping). A green TL candle means that its close is not only higher than its open but also higher than previous close, previous open and especially previous high, among other conditions. In the other extreme, a red TL candle indicates that its close is not only lower than its open but also lower than previous close, previous open and especially lower than previous low, among other conditions. TL candle does its best to tackle the trap of going against the trend: short when the price seems to be high in an uptrend or buy when the price seems to be low in a downtrend.
Parameters:
Volume Active Percentile % , Min Height Percentile of Bullish/Bearish Candle % . (Intraday)
Back Two Candles . (Intraday, day and above)
Usage:
After adding TL3CC to the chart, find Visual Order or Object Tree and bring TL3CC forward to be above the chart candle.
While a bullish trend includes green and yellow TL candles, a bearish trend includes red and yellow ones. It is the best to enter after the first bullish/bearish TL candle of each trend. It is extremely important, never ever try to go against TL candle.
There are many cases when red and green TL candles are twisted and we could have profit in both directions. It is the time that market is fluctuating strongly. We enter when TL candle has one color, but it changes to the opposite color after that as the price pulls back. In those cases, be calm and patient to wait for the first reversal to exit, it should come.

Velocity and Acceleration SignalsThe "Velocity and Acceleration Signals" indicator is a versatile tool designed to provide traders with valuable insights into price momentum and acceleration. By harnessing the power of mathematics and visualization, this indicator helps traders make informed decisions in the fast-paced world of financial markets.
Crunching the Numbers: How It Works
At its core, the indicator relies on two key concepts: velocity and acceleration. Here's how it operates:
-- Velocity Calculation : The indicator takes a step back in time, considering a user-defined historical period (typically around 14 bars). It calculates the velocity of price movements during this period. Velocity represents the speed at which an asset's price is changing and is derived by examining how much the price has moved between bars. Specifically, it computes the rate of change in price over time.
-- Acceleration Calculation : Building upon velocity, the indicator goes one step further and calculates acceleration. Acceleration signifies how quickly the velocity is changing. It quantifies whether the price is speeding up or slowing down in its ascent or descent.
-- Smoothing with EMA : To enhance clarity and reduce noise, the indicator smooths the velocity using an Exponential Moving Average (EMA) with a user-defined length. This smoothed velocity provides a more comprehensive view of the price momentum trend.
Visualizing Market Dynamics
The indicator doesn't just crunch numbers; it also paints a vivid picture of market sentiment:
-- Coloration : The indicator employs a color scheme to visualize market conditions. It uses lime for positive acceleration and fuchsia for negative acceleration. The color green represents positive smoothed velocity, while red denotes negative smoothed velocity. A gray hue signals a neutral or transitional phase.
-- Plotting Velocity and Acceleration : The indicator provides visual representations of both smoothed velocity and acceleration. Smoothed velocity is depicted as columns, with green or red coloring indicating the direction. Acceleration is displayed as a histogram, with lime or fuchsia bars showcasing bullish or bearish momentum. A gray zero line offers a reference point for changes in momentum direction.
-- Strong Up and Strong Down Conditions : For traders seeking distinctive signals, the indicator identifies "Strong Up" and "Strong Down" conditions. A "Strong Up" occurs when smoothed velocity crosses above a user-defined threshold, coupled with positive acceleration. Conversely, a "Strong Down" emerges when smoothed velocity crosses below another threshold, accompanied by negative acceleration. These conditions are marked with prominent triangular shapes.
Unlocking Trading Potential
Now, let's explore how traders can leverage the indicator:
-- Trend Confirmation : Traders can use this indicator to validate the prevailing market trend. A robust smoothed velocity, combined with acceleration in the same direction, can confirm the current trend.
-- Contrarian Signals : Extreme conditions signaled by a strong crossover or crossunder of the smoothed velocity threshold, along with appropriate acceleration, can hint at potential trend reversals.
-- Divergence Analysis : Savvy traders can employ this indicator to identify divergences between price movements and momentum. If the price exhibits higher highs while the indicator shows lower highs (or vice versa), it may signify a weakening or strengthening trend.
Navigating Limitations
As with any trading tool, it's essential to acknowledge the indicator's limitations:
-- Lookback Period : The indicator's effectiveness may vary based on the chosen historical period. Longer periods smooth out fluctuations but may lag in capturing recent changes in sentiment.
-- Threshold Sensitivity : Interpreting threshold crossovers or crossunders can be subjective. Traders should carefully fine-tune these threshold values based on their trading strategy and market conditions.
-- Context Matters : The indicator focuses solely on velocity and acceleration signals and does not incorporate other critical factors such as trading volume, market news, or fundamental analysis. Therefore, traders should use it in conjunction with additional indicators and analysis techniques.
While the primary focus is on trend and momentum analysis, this indicator indirectly provides information about volatility as well. Rapid changes in velocity and acceleration can indicate increasing volatility in the market, which may be of interest to traders looking for opportunities during volatile conditions.
However, this indicator doesn't directly measure volume. To incorporate volume analysis into your trading strategy, you may want to combine this indicator with volume-based indicators or consider other tools specifically designed for volume analysis.
In conclusion, this indicator is a valuable ally for traders looking to decode market dynamics and make data-driven trading decisions. While it offers powerful insights, it's crucial to recognize its limitations and deploy it as part of a comprehensive trading strategy.
MA Slope [EMA Magic]█ Overview:
The MA Slope calculates the slope based on a given moving average.
The Moving Average Slope indicator allows you to identify the direction and the strength of a trend.
It calculates the rate of change in percentage based on the user-defined moving average.
█ Calculation: This indicator calculates the slope based on the changes of moving average and normalizes it with Average True Range(ATR).
The default value of ATR is 7.I recommend not changing it unless you know exactly what are you doing.
█ Input Settings:
The settings are divided into three sections:
The first section is for time frame adjustments. Modify it separately from the chart, Allows you to use moving averages from different time frames.
In the second section, you can configure the base calculation,including Moving Average and Average True Range(ATR) settings.
In the third section, you can detect breakout and sudden change signals, which are highlighted in the background of the indicator.
Note that When you change the breakout limit value, it also affects the band limit indicator on your chart.
To avoid signal confusion, use only one at a time.
Here is the example the breakout signals:
█ Usage:
When the slope is increasing, it indicates an uptrend.
When the slope is decreasing, it indicates a downtrend.
When the slope is moving around zero and choppy, it indicates no specific trend or price is in a range zone.
Uptrend and Range Zone example:
Downtrend example:
Slope peaks on extreme levels can signal a potential trend reversal point.
Breakout of the upper or lower bands can be translated into a trading signal.Indicating that price will probably continue to move in the direction of the breakout.
Favor long setups when the slope is increasing or it is positive and favor short setups when the slope is decreasing or it is negative.
Fits with any moving average you use, e.g., EMA, WMA, MA Ribbon, and more.
█ Alert
Alerts are available for both signal conditions.
