MCDX with MAs

MCDX with MAs – Market Participant Flow Analyzer
📌 Overview

The MCDX with MAs indicator provides insight into market behavior by visualizing the money flow of three key participant types—Bankers (Smart Money), Hot Money, and Retail Traders—through custom RSI logic and moving averages. It helps traders assess which group is driving price action and how this aligns with broader market trends.
🔍 What Makes This Indicator Unique?

Unlike generic mashups, this tool builds on the MCDX concept by:

Using custom RSI logic per participant group

Applying independent MAs to each RSI stream

Supporting multi-timeframe analysis

Offering clear color-coded trends and strengths

Enabling signal generation based on group behavior and crossover dynamics

⚙️ How It Works
RSI Logic (Per Group)

Each group’s RSI uses:

A base threshold (neutral zone)

A sensitivity multiplier (to control reactivity)

Visual capping (default max: 20) for easier histogram comparison

Moving Averages

Each RSI stream has its own moving average:

Selectable types: EMA, SMA, WMA, RMA, SMMA

Bankers include three MAs: short, mid, and long-term

MAs are used to identify trends and filter noise

📊 Visual Output & Color Logic

Each group is represented by a histogram with conditional coloring:

Bankers:

RSI > MA → Strong Green

RSI < MA → Light Green (or user-defined)

Hot Money:

RSI > MA → Bright Yellow

RSI < MA → Light Yellow

Retail:

RSI > MA → Bright Red

RSI < MA → Light Red

This makes it easy to visually assess which market participant is in control.
🟢 Bullish Conditions

Banker RSI rising and above at least one MA

Retailer RSI falling (retail exiting as smart money enters)

Hot Money RSI rising and above its MA

Stronger signal if Bankers or Hot Money RSI is recovering from extreme low values

🔴 Bearish Conditions

Banker RSI falling and below all MAs

Retail RSI rising (retail buying into weakness)

Hot Money RSI declining

Stronger signal if Bankers or Hot Money RSI are near extreme high levels

🛠️ Customization Features

Timeframe Input: Analyze flow from any timeframe

Static Reference Levels: Level 1, 2, 3 for support/resistance

Extreme Thresholds: Define extreme_high and extreme_low zones

MA Options: Choose MA type and length per RSI stream

🧠 Strategy Ideas

Combine with price action and volume for higher confluence

Use Banker RSI on a higher timeframe to filter trades on lower TFs

Monitor divergences between Retail and Banker flows

Use crossovers and slope direction for entries/exits

🔔 Alert Logic (Optional, Customizable in Pine Script)

Banker RSI crosses MA

RSI enters or exits extreme zones

RSI group divergence or alignment

Trend shift confirmation from all groups

✅ Best Suited For

Swing traders spotting accumulation/distribution zones

Traders seeking confirmation from institutional vs retail behavior

Users looking to combine money flow logic with MA-based trend confirmation

⚠️ Important Notes

This indicator is not financial advice. Use at your own discretion and with proper risk management.

Backtest thoroughly before applying in live markets.

Best used on a clean chart with no overlapping indicators for clarity.

Alert logic is not built-in but can be added using Pine Script.

Market behavior can vary greatly; always combine with other tools (e.g., support/resistance, candlestick patterns).

🧾 Summary

The MCDX with MAs indicator is a complete tool for visualizing and interpreting the behavior of market participants across different timeframes. By combining enhanced RSI logic, moving averages, and color-coded money flow dynamics, traders gain a structured way to identify trend strength, turning points, and entry/exit signals.
