FVG Trailing Stop [LuxAlgo]The FVG Trailing Stop indicator tracks unmitigated Fair Value Gaps (FVG) data to produce a Trailing Stop indicator able to determine if the market is uptrending or downtrending easily.
🔶 USAGE
The FVG Trailing Stop is intended to identify trend directions through its position relative to the closing price:
Bullish: Price is located above the Trailing Stop, indicating that all Bearish FVGs have been mitigated and the trend is anticipated to continue upwards.
Bearish State: Price is located below the Trailing Stop, indicating that all Bullish FVGs have been mitigated and the trend is anticipated to continue downwards.
The Trailing Stop originates from two extremities obtained from the average of respective unmitigated FVGs. The specific directional average is also displayed as a more transparent secondary line, however, the trailing stop is derived from this value and a new trend will not be detected until the opposite directional average is crossed.
Price reaching the Trailing Stop is caused by retracements and can lead to the following scenarios:
Outcome 1: The directional average is crossed next, indicating a new trend direction.
Outcome 2: The directional average is held as support or resistance, leading to a new impulse and a continuation of the trend.
🔹 Reset on Cross
While price crossing the Trailing Stop should be considered as a sign of an upcoming trend change; it is possible for the price to still evolve outside it.
As a solution, we have included the "Reset on Cross" feature, which (as the name suggests) hides and resets the Trailing Stop each time it is crossed, leading to a "Neutral" state.
This opens the opportunity for the Trailing Stop to be displayed again once the price moves again in the direction of the pre-established trend. A trader might use this to accumulate positions within a specific trend.
🔶 DETAILS
The script uses a typical identification method for FVGs. Once identified, the script collects the point of the FVG farthest from the current price when formed.
For Upwards FVGs this is the bottom of the FVG.
For Downwards FVGs this is the top of the FVG.
The data is managed only to use the last input lookback of FVGs. If an FVG is mitigated, it frees up a spot in the memory for a new FVG, however, if the lookback is full, the oldest will be deleted.
From there, it uses a "trailing" logic only to move the Trailing Stop in one direction until the trailing stop resets or the direction flips.
The extremities used to calculate the Trailing Stop are created from 2 calculation steps, the first step involves taking the raw average of the FVG mitigation levels, and the second step applies a simple moving average (SMA) smoothing of the precedent-obtained averages.
🔶 SETTINGS
Unmitigated FVG Lookback: Sets the maximum number of Unmitigated FVGs that the script will use.
Smoothing Length: Sets the smoothing length for the Trailing Stop to reduce erratic results.
Reset on Cross: When enabled, hide and reset the Trailing Stop until the price starts moving in the pre-established trend direction again.

Pucci Trend EMA-SMA Crossover with TolerancePucci Trend EMA-SMA Crossover with Tolerance
This indicator helps identify market trends and generates trading signals based on the crossover between an Exponential Moving Average (EMA) and a Simple Moving Average (SMA) with an adjustable tolerance threshold. The signals work as follows:
Buy Signal (B) -> Triggers when the EMA crosses above the SMA, exceeding a user-defined tolerance (in basis points). Optionally, a price filter can require the high or low to be below the EMA for confirmation.
Sell Signal (S) -> Triggers when the SMA crosses above the EMA, exceeding the tolerance. The optional price filter may require the high or low to be above the EMA.
The tolerance helps reduce false signals by requiring a minimum distance between the moving averages before confirming a crossover. The price filter adds an extra confirmation layer by checking if price action respects the EMA level.

Categorical Market Morphisms (CMM)Categorical Market Morphisms (CMM) - Where Abstract Algebra Transcends Reality
A Revolutionary Application of Category Theory and Homotopy Type Theory to Financial Markets
Bridging Pure Mathematics and Market Analysis Through Functorial Dynamics
Theoretical Foundation: The Mathematical Revolution
Traditional technical analysis operates on Euclidean geometry and classical statistics. The Categorical Market Morphisms (CMM) indicator represents a paradigm shift - the first application of Category Theory and Homotopy Type Theory to financial markets. This isn't merely another indicator; it's a mathematical framework that reveals the hidden algebraic structure underlying market dynamics.
Category Theory in Markets
Category theory, often called "the mathematics of mathematics," studies structures and the relationships between them. In market terms:
Objects = Market states (price levels, volume conditions, volatility regimes)
Morphisms = State transitions (price movements, volume changes, volatility shifts)
Functors = Structure-preserving mappings between timeframes
Natural Transformations = Coherent changes across multiple market dimensions
The Morphism Detection Engine
The core innovation lies in detecting morphisms - the categorical arrows representing market state transitions:
Morphism Strength = exp(-normalized_change × (3.0 / sensitivity))
Threshold = 0.3 - (sensitivity - 1.0) × 0.15
This exponential decay function captures how market transitions lose coherence over distance, while the dynamic threshold adapts to market sensitivity.
Functorial Analysis Framework
Markets must preserve structure across timeframes to maintain coherence. Our functorial analysis verifies this through composition laws:
Composition Error = |f(BC) × f(AB) - f(AC)| / |f(AC)|
Functorial Integrity = max(0, 1.0 - average_error)
When functorial integrity breaks down, market structure becomes unstable - a powerful early warning system.
Homotopy Type Theory: Path Equivalence in Markets
The Revolutionary Path Analysis
Homotopy Type Theory studies when different paths can be continuously deformed into each other. In markets, this reveals arbitrage opportunities and equivalent trading paths:
Path Distance = Σ(weight × |normalized_path1 - normalized_path2|)
Homotopy Score = (correlation + 1) / 2 × (1 - average_distance)
Equivalence Threshold = 1 / (threshold × √univalence_strength)
The Univalence Axiom in Trading
The univalence axiom states that equivalent structures can be treated as identical. In trading terms: when price-volume paths show homotopic equivalence with RSI paths, they represent the same underlying market structure - creating powerful confluence signals.
Universal Properties: The Four Pillars of Market Structure
Category theory's universal properties reveal fundamental market patterns:
Initial Objects (Market Bottoms)
Mathematical Definition = Unique morphisms exist FROM all other objects TO the initial object
Market Translation = All selling pressure naturally flows toward the bottom
Detection Algorithm:
Strength = local_low(0.3) + oversold(0.2) + volume_surge(0.2) + momentum_reversal(0.2) + morphism_flow(0.1)
Signal = strength > 0.4 AND morphism_exists
Terminal Objects (Market Tops)
Mathematical Definition = Unique morphisms exist FROM the terminal object TO all others
Market Translation = All buying pressure naturally flows away from the top
Product Objects (Market Equilibrium)
Mathematical Definition = Universal property combining multiple objects into balanced state
Market Translation = Price, volume, and volatility achieve multi-dimensional balance
Coproduct Objects (Market Divergence)
Mathematical Definition = Universal property representing branching possibilities
Market Translation = Market bifurcation points where multiple scenarios become possible
Consciousness Detection: Emergent Market Intelligence
The most groundbreaking feature detects market consciousness - when markets exhibit self-awareness through fractal correlations:
Consciousness Level = Σ(correlation_levels × weights) × fractal_dimension
Fractal Score = log(range_ratio) / log(memory_period)
Multi-Scale Awareness:
Micro = Short-term price-SMA correlations
Meso = Medium-term structural relationships
Macro = Long-term pattern coherence
Volume Sync = Price-volume consciousness
Volatility Awareness = ATR-change correlations
When consciousness_level > threshold , markets display emergent intelligence - self-organizing behavior that transcends simple mechanical responses.

Development Journey: Mathematical Innovation
The Challenge
Traditional indicators operate on classical mathematics - moving averages, oscillators, and pattern recognition. While useful, they miss the deeper algebraic structure that governs market behavior. Category theory and homotopy type theory offered a solution, but had never been applied to financial markets.
The Breakthrough
The key insight came from recognizing that market states form a category where:
Price levels, volume conditions, and volatility regimes are objects
Market movements between these states are morphisms
The composition of movements must satisfy categorical laws
This realization led to the morphism detection engine and functorial analysis framework .

DCA Investment Tracker Pro [tradeviZion]DCA Investment Tracker Pro: Educational DCA Analysis Tool
An educational indicator that helps analyze Dollar-Cost Averaging strategies by comparing actual performance with historical data calculations.
---
💡 Why I Created This Indicator
As someone who practices Dollar-Cost Averaging, I was frustrated with constantly switching between spreadsheets, calculators, and charts just to understand how my investments were really performing. I wanted to see everything in one place - my actual performance, what I should expect based on historical data, and most importantly, visualize where my strategy could take me over the long term .
What really motivated me was watching friends and family underestimate the incredible power of consistent investing. When Napoleon Bonaparte first learned about compound interest, he reportedly exclaimed "I wonder it has not swallowed the world" - and he was right! Yet most people can't visualize how their $500 monthly contributions today could become substantial wealth decades later.
Traditional DCA tracking tools exist, but they share similar limitations:
Require manual data entry and complex spreadsheets
Use fixed assumptions that don't reflect real market behavior
Can't show future projections overlaid on actual price charts
Lose the visual context of what's happening in the market
Make compound growth feel abstract rather than tangible
I wanted to create something different - a tool that automatically analyzes real market history, detects volatility periods, and shows you both current performance AND educational projections based on historical patterns right on your TradingView charts. As Warren Buffett said: "Someone's sitting in the shade today because someone planted a tree a long time ago." This tool helps you visualize your financial tree growing over time.
This isn't just another calculator - it's a visualization tool that makes the magic of compound growth impossible to ignore.

total_invested = initial_investment + (monthly_contribution * months_elapsed)
// Compound growth formula for initial investment
theoretical_initial_growth = initial_investment * math.pow(1 + annual_return, years_elapsed)
// Future Value of Annuity for monthly contributions
monthly_rate = annual_return / 12
fv_contributions = monthly_contribution * ((math.pow(1 + monthly_rate, months_elapsed) - 1) / monthly_rate)
// Total expected value
theoretical_total = theoretical_initial_growth + fv_contributions
Volatility Detection Logic:
// Detect extreme years for volatility adjustment
extreme_years = 0
for i = 1 to historical_years
yearly_return = ((price_current / price_i_years_ago) - 1) * 100
if yearly_return > 100 or yearly_return < -50
extreme_years += 1
// Use median approach for high volatility stocks
high_volatility = (extreme_years / historical_years) > 0.2
calculated_return = high_volatility ? median_of_returns : standard_cagr
Performance Metrics:
// Calculate key performance indicators
absolute_gain = actual_value - total_invested
total_return_pct = (absolute_gain / total_invested) * 100
roi_initial = ((actual_value - initial_investment) / initial_investment) * 100
cagr = (math.pow(actual_value / initial_investment, 1 / years_elapsed) - 1) * 100

------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
1. INDICATOR OVERVIEW & CORE FUNCTIONALITY
------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
The LOI indicator combines multiple VWAP calculations with moving averages across different timeframes. It's designed to show where institutional money is flowing and help identify key support and resistance levels that actually matter in today's markets.
Primary Functions:
- Multi-timeframe VWAP analysis (Daily, Weekly, Monthly, Yearly)
- Advanced moving average integration (EMA, SMA, HMA)
- Real-time trend direction detection
- Institutional flow analysis
- Dynamic support/resistance identification
Target Users: Day traders, swing traders, position traders, and institutional analysts seeking comprehensive market structure analysis.
------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
2. VWAP FOUNDATION & HISTORICAL CONTEXT
------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Historical Development: VWAP started in the 1980s when big institutional traders needed a way to measure if they were getting good fills on their massive orders. Unlike regular price averages, VWAP weighs each price by the volume traded at that level. This makes it incredibly useful because it shows you where most of the real money changed hands.
Mathematical Foundation: The basic math is simple: you take each price, multiply it by the volume at that price, add them all up, then divide by total volume. What you get is the true "average" price that reflects actual trading activity, not just random price movements.
Formula: VWAP = Σ(Price × Volume) / Σ(Volume)
Where typical price = (High + Low + Close) / 3
Institutional Behavior Patterns:
- When price trades above VWAP, institutions often look to sell
- When it's below, they're usually buying
- Creates natural support and resistance that you can actually trade against
- Serves as benchmark for execution quality assessment
------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
3. MULTI-TIMEFRAME VWAP ANALYSIS
------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Core Innovation: Here's where LOI gets interesting. Instead of just showing daily VWAP like most indicators, it displays four different timeframes simultaneously:
**Daily VWAP Implementation**:
- Resets every morning at market open
- Provides clearest picture of intraday institutional sentiment
- Primary tool for day trading strategies
- Most responsive to immediate market conditions
**Weekly VWAP System**:
- Resets each Monday (or first trading day)
- Smooths out daily noise and volatility
- Perfect for swing trades lasting several days to weeks
- Captures weekly institutional positioning
**Monthly VWAP Analysis**:
- Resets at beginning of each calendar month
- Captures bigger institutional rebalancing at month-end
- Fund managers often operate on monthly mandates
- Significant weight in intermediate-term analysis
**Yearly VWAP Perspective**:
- Resets annually for full-year institutional view
- Shows long-term institutional positioning
- Where pension funds and sovereign wealth funds operate
- Critical for major trend identification
Confluence Zone Theory: The magic happens when multiple VWAP levels cluster together. These confluence zones often become major turning points because different types of institutional money all see value at the same price.
------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
4. MOVING AVERAGE INTEGRATION SYSTEM
------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Multi-Type Implementation: The indicator includes three types of moving averages, each with its own personality and application:
**Exponential Moving Averages (EMAs)**:
- React quickly to recent price changes
- Displayed as solid lines for easy identification
- Optimal performance in trending market conditions
- Higher sensitivity to current price action
**Simple Moving Averages (SMAs)**:
- Treat all historical data points equally
- Appear as dashed lines in visual display
- Slower response but more reliable in choppy conditions
- Traditional approach favored by institutional traders
**Hull Moving Averages (HMAs)**:
- Newest addition to the system (dotted line display)
- Created by Alan Hull in 2005
- Solves classic moving average dilemma: speed vs. accuracy
- Manages to be both responsive and smooth simultaneously
Technical Innovation: Alan Hull's solution addresses the fundamental problem where moving averages are either too slow (missing moves) or too fast (generating false signals). HMAs achieve optimal balance through weighted calculation methodology.
Period Configuration:
- 5-period: Short-term momentum assessment
- 50-period: Intermediate trend identification
- 200-period: Long-term directional confirmation
------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
5. TREND DIRECTION SIGNAL DETECTION
------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Real-Time Momentum Analysis: One of LOI's best features is its real-time trend detection system. Next to each moving average, visual symbols provide immediate trend assessment:
Symbol System:
- ▲ Rising average (bullish momentum confirmation)
- ▼ Falling average (bearish momentum indication)
- ► Flat average (consolidation or indecision period)
Update Frequency: These signals update in real-time with each new price tick and function across all configured timeframes. Traders can quickly scan daily and weekly trends to assess alignment or conflicting signals.
Multi-Timeframe Trend Analysis:
- Simultaneous daily and weekly trend comparison
- Immediate identification of trend alignment
- Early warning system for potential reversals
- Momentum confirmation for entry decisions
------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
6. VISUAL DESIGN & DISPLAY FEATURES
------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Color Psychology Framework: The color scheme isn't random but based on psychological associations and trading conventions:
- **Blue Tones**: Institutional neutrality (VWAP levels)
- **Green Spectrum**: Growth and stability (weekly timeframes)
- **Purple Range**: Longer-term sophistication (monthly analysis)
- **Orange Hues**: Importance and attention (yearly perspective)
- **Red Tones**: User-defined significance (custom levels)
Adaptive Display Technology: The indicator automatically adjusts decimal places based on the instrument you're trading. High-priced stocks show 2 decimals, while penny stocks might show 8. This keeps the display incredibly clean regardless of what you're analyzing - no cluttered charts or overwhelming information overload.
Smart Labeling System: Advanced positioning algorithm automatically spaces all elements to prevent overlap, even during extreme zoom levels or multiple timeframe analysis. Every level stays clearly readable without any visual chaos disrupting your analysis.
------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
7. CUSTOM LEVEL INTEGRATION
------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
User-Defined Level System: Beyond the calculated VWAP and moving average levels, traders can add custom horizontal lines at any price point for personalized analysis.
Strategic Applications:
- **Psychological Levels**: Round numbers, previous significant highs/lows
- **Technical Levels**: Fibonacci retracements, pivot points
- **Fundamental Targets**: Analyst price targets, earnings estimates
- **Risk Management**: Stop-loss and take-profit zones
Integration Features:
- Seamless incorporation with smart labeling system
- Custom color selection for visual organization
- Extension capabilities across all chart timeframes
- Maintains display clarity with existing indicators
------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
8. REPAINT PROTECTION TECHNOLOGY
------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Critical Trading Feature: This addresses one of the most significant issues in live trading applications. Most multi-timeframe indicators "repaint," meaning they display different signals when viewing historical data versus real-time analysis.
Protection Benefits:
- Ensures every displayed signal could have been traded when it appeared
- Eliminates discrepancies between historical and live analysis
- Provides realistic performance expectations
- Maintains signal integrity across chart refreshes
Configuration Options:
- **Protection Enabled**: Default setting for live trading
- **Protection Disabled**: Available for backtesting analysis
- User-selectable toggle based on analysis requirements
- Applies to all multi-timeframe calculations
Implementation Note: With protection enabled, signals may appear one bar later than without protection, but this ensures all signals represent actionable opportunities that could have been executed in real-time market conditions.
------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
9. PRACTICAL TRADING APPLICATIONS
------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
**Day Trading Strategy**:
Focus on daily VWAP with 5-period moving averages. Look for bounces off VWAP or breaks through it with volume. Short-term momentum signals provide entry and exit timing.
**Swing Trading Approach**:
Weekly VWAP becomes your primary anchor point, with 50-period averages showing intermediate trends. Position sizing based on weekly VWAP distance.
**Position Trading Method**:
Monthly and yearly VWAP provide broad market context, while 200-period averages confirm long-term directional bias. Suitable for multi-week to multi-month holdings.
**Multi-Timeframe Confluence Strategy**:
The highest-probability setups occur when daily, weekly, and monthly VWAPs cluster together, especially when multiple moving averages confirm the same direction. These represent institutional consensus zones.
Risk Management Integration:
- VWAP levels serve as dynamic stop-loss references
- Multiple timeframe confirmation reduces false signals
- Institutional flow analysis improves position sizing decisions
- Trend direction signals optimize entry and exit timing
------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
10. SETUP & CONFIGURATION RECOMMENDATIONS
------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Initial Configuration: Start with default settings and adjust based on individual trading style and market focus. Short-term traders should emphasize daily and weekly timeframes, while longer-term investors benefit from monthly and yearly level analysis.
Transparency Optimization: The transparency settings allow clear price action visibility while maintaining level reference points. Most traders find 70-80% transparency optimal - it provides a clean, unobstructed view of price movement while maintaining all critical reference levels needed for analysis.
Integration Strategy: Remember that no indicator functions effectively in isolation. LOI provides excellent context for institutional flow and trend direction analysis, but should be combined with complementary analysis tools for optimal results.
Performance Considerations:
- Multiple timeframe calculations may impact chart loading speed
- Adjust displayed timeframes based on trading frequency
- Customize color schemes for different market sessions
- Regular review and adjustment of custom levels
------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
FINAL ANALYSIS
------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Competitive Advantage: What makes LOI different is its focus on where real money actually trades. By combining volume-weighted calculations with multiple timeframes and trend detection, it cuts through market noise to show you what institutions are really doing.
Key Success Factor: Understanding that different timeframes serve different purposes is essential. Use them together to build a complete picture of market structure, then execute trades accordingly.
The integration of institutional flow analysis with technical trend detection creates a comprehensive trading tool that addresses both short-term tactical decisions and longer-term strategic positioning.

Volume Momentum [BackQuant]Volume Momentum
The Volume Momentum indicator is designed to help traders identify shifts in market momentum based on volume data. By analyzing the relative volume momentum, this indicator provides insights into whether the market is gaining strength (uptrend) or losing momentum (downtrend). The strategy uses a combination of percentile-based volume normalization, weighted moving averages (WMA), and exponential moving averages (EMA) to assess volume trends.
The system focuses on the relationship between price and volume, utilizing normalized volume data to highlight key market changes. This approach allows traders to focus on volume-driven price movements, helping them to capture momentum shifts early.
Key Features
1. Volume Normalization and Percentile Calculation:
The signed volume (positive when the close is higher than the open, negative when the close is lower) is normalized against the rolling average volume. This normalized volume is then subjected to a percentile interpolation, allowing for a robust statistical measure of how the current volume compares to historical data. The percentile level is customizable, with 50 representing the median.
2. Weighted and Smoothed Moving Averages for Trend Detection:
The normalized volume is smoothed using weighted moving averages (WMA) and exponential moving averages (EMA). These smoothing techniques help eliminate noise, providing a clearer view of the underlying momentum. The WMA filters out short-term fluctuations, while the EMA ensures that the most recent data points have a higher weight, making the system more responsive to current market conditions.
3. Trend Reversal Detection:
The indicator detects momentum shifts by evaluating whether the volume momentum crosses above or below zero. A positive volume momentum indicates a potential uptrend, while a negative momentum suggests a possible downtrend. These trend reversals are identified through crossover and crossunder conditions, triggering alerts when significant changes occur.
4. Dynamic Trend Background and Bar Coloring:
The script offers customizable background coloring based on the trend direction. When volume momentum is positive, the background is colored green, indicating a bullish trend. When volume momentum is negative, the background is colored red, signaling a bearish trend. Additionally, the bars themselves can be colored based on the trend, further helping traders quickly visualize market momentum.
5. Alerts for Momentum Shifts:
The system provides real-time alerts for traders to monitor when volume momentum crosses a critical threshold (zero), signaling a trend reversal. The alerts notify traders when the market momentum turns bullish or bearish, assisting them in making timely decisions.
6. Customizable Parameters for Flexible Usage:
Users can fine-tune the behavior of the indicator by adjusting various parameters:
Volume Rolling Mean: The period used to calculate the average volume for normalization.
Percentile Interpolation Length: Defines the range over which the percentile is calculated.
Percentile Level: Determines the percentile threshold (e.g., 50 for the median).
WMA and Smoothing Periods: Control the smoothing and response time of the indicator.
7. Trend Background Visualization and Trend-Based Bar Coloring:
The background fill is shaded according to whether the volume momentum is positive or negative, providing a visual cue to indicate market strength. Additionally, bars can be color-coded to highlight the trend, making it easier to see the trend’s direction without needing to analyze numerical data manually.
8. Note on Mean-Reversion Strategy:
If you take the inverse of the signals, this indicator can be adapted for a mean-reversion strategy. Instead of following the trend, the strategy would involve buying assets that are underperforming and selling assets that are overperforming, based on volume momentum. However, it’s important to note that this approach may not work effectively on highly correlated assets, as their price movements may be too similar, reducing the effectiveness of the mean-reversion strategy.
Final Thoughts
The Volume Momentum indicator offers a comprehensive approach to analyzing volume-based momentum shifts in the market. By using volume normalization, percentile interpolation, and smoothed moving averages, this system helps identify the strength and direction of market trends. Whether used for trend-following or adapted for mean-reversion, this tool provides traders with actionable insights into the market’s volume-driven movements, improving decision-making and portfolio management.
Wavelet Filter with Adaptive Upsampling [BackQuant]Wavelet Filter with Adaptive Upsampling
The Wavelet Filter with Adaptive Upsampling is an advanced filtering and signal reconstruction tool designed to enhance the analysis of financial time series data. It combines wavelet transforms with adaptive upsampling techniques to filter and reconstruct price data, making it ideal for capturing subtle market movements and enhancing trend detection. This system uses high-pass and low-pass filters to decompose the price series into different frequency components, applying adaptive thresholding to eliminate noise and preserve relevant signal information.
Shout out to Loxx for the Least Squares fitting of trigonometric series and Quinn and Fernandes algorithm for finding frequency
www.tradingview.com
Key Features
1. Frequency Decomposition with High-Pass and Low-Pass Filters:
The indicator decomposes the input time series using high-pass and low-pass filters to separate the high-frequency (detail) and low-frequency (trend) components of the data. This decomposition allows for a more accurate analysis of underlying trends, while mitigating the impact of noise.
2. Soft Thresholding for Noise Reduction:
A soft thresholding function is applied to the high-frequency component, allowing for the reduction of noise while retaining significant market signals. This function adjusts the coefficients of the high-frequency data, removing small fluctuations and leaving only the essential price movements.
3. Adaptive Upsampling Process:
The upsampling process in this script can be customized using different methods: sinusoidal upsampling, advanced upsampling, and simple upsampling. Each method serves a unique purpose:
Sinusoidal Upsample uses a sine wave to interpolate between data points, providing a smooth transition.
Advanced Upsample utilizes a Quinn-Fernandes algorithm to estimate frequency and apply more sophisticated interpolation techniques, adapting to the market’s cyclical behavior.
Simple Upsample linearly interpolates between data points, providing a basic upsampling technique for less complex analysis.
4. Reconstruction of Filtered Signal:
The indicator reconstructs the filtered signal by summing the high and low-frequency components after upsampling. This allows for a detailed yet smooth representation of the original time series, which can be used for analyzing underlying trends in the market.
5. Visualization of Reconstructed Data:
The reconstructed series is plotted, showing how the upsampling and filtering process enhances the clarity of the price movements. Additionally, the script provides the option to visualize the log returns of the reconstructed series as a histogram, with positive returns shown in green and negative returns in red.
6. Cumulative Series and Trend Detection:
A cumulative series is plotted to visualize the compounded effect of the filtered and reconstructed data. This feature helps traders track the overall performance of the asset over time, identifying whether the asset is following a sustained upward or downward trend.
7. Adaptive Thresholding and Noise Estimation:
The system estimates the noise level in the high-frequency component and applies an adaptive thresholding process based on the standard deviation of the downsampled data. This ensures that only significant price movements are retained, further refining the trend analysis.
8. Customizable Parameters for Flexibility:
Users can customize the following parameters to adjust the behavior of the indicator:
Frequency and Phase Shift: Control the periodicity of the wavelet transformation and the phase of the upsampling function.
Upsample Factor: Adjust the level of interpolation applied during the upsampling process.
Smoothing Period: Determine the length of time used to smooth the signal, helping to filter out short-term fluctuations.

This involves buying underperforming assets and selling outperforming ones. Caution: This method may not work effectively with highly correlated assets, as the price movements between correlated assets tend to mirror each other, limiting the effectiveness of mean-reversion strategies.
Final Thoughts
The Wavelet Filter with Adaptive Upsampling is a powerful tool for traders seeking to improve their understanding of market trends and noise. By using advanced wavelet decomposition and adaptive upsampling, this system offers a clearer, more refined picture of price movements, enhancing trend-following strategies. It’s particularly useful for detecting subtle shifts in market momentum and reconstructing price data in a way that removes noise, providing more accurate insights into market conditions.

(Mustang Algo) Stochastic RSI + Triple EMAStochastic RSI + Triple EMA (StochTEMA)
Overview
The Stochastic RSI + Triple EMA indicator combines the Stochastic RSI oscillator with a Triple Exponential Moving Average (TEMA) overlay to generate clear buy and sell signals on the price chart. By measuring RSI overbought/oversold conditions and confirming trend direction with TEMA, this tool helps traders identify high-probability entries and exits while filtering out noise in choppy markets.
Key Features
Stochastic RSI Calculation
Computes a standard RSI over a user-defined period (default 50).
Applies a Stochastic oscillator to the RSI values over a second user-defined period (default 50).
Smooths the %K line by taking an SMA over a third input (default 3), and %D is an SMA of %K over another input (default 3).
Defines oversold when both %K and %D are below 20, and overbought when both are above 80.
Triple EMA (TEMA)
Calculates three successive EMAs on the closing price with the same length (default 9).
Combines them using TEMA = 3×(EMA1 – EMA2) + EMA3, producing a fast-reacting trend line.
Bullish trend is identified when price > TEMA and TEMA is rising; bearish trend when price < TEMA and TEMA is falling; neutral/flat when TEMA change is minimal.

Strong Buy: Previous bar’s Stoch RSI was oversold (both %K and %D < 20), %K crosses above %D, and TEMA is in a bullish trend.
Medium Buy: %K crosses above %D (without requiring oversold), TEMA is bullish, and previous %K < 50.
Weak Buy: Previous bar’s %K and %D were oversold, %K crosses above %D, TEMA is flat or bullish (not bearish).
Strong Sell: Previous bar’s Stoch RSI was overbought (both %K and %D > 80), %K crosses below %D, and TEMA is bearish.
Medium Sell: %K crosses below %D (without requiring overbought), TEMA is bearish, and previous %K > 50.
Weak Sell: Previous bar’s %K and %D were overbought, %K crosses below %D, TEMA is flat or bearish (not bullish).
Visual Elements on Chart
TEMA Line: Plotted in cyan (#00BCD4) with a medium-thick line for clear trend visualization.
Buy/Sell Markers:
BUY STRONG: Lime label below the candle
BUY MEDIUM: Green triangle below the candle
BUY WEAK: Semi-transparent green circle below the candle
SELL STRONG: Red label above the candle
SELL MEDIUM: Orange triangle above the candle
SELL WEAK: Semi-transparent orange circle above the candle
Candle & Background Coloring: When a strong buy or sell signal occurs, the candle body is tinted (semi-transparent lime/red) and the chart background briefly flashes light green (buy) or light red (sell).
Dynamic Support/Resistance:
On a strong buy signal, a green dot is plotted under that bar’s low as a temporary support marker.
On a strong sell signal, a red dot is plotted above that bar’s high as a temporary resistance marker.
Alerts
Strong Buy Alert: Triggered when Stoch RSI is oversold, %K crosses above %D, and TEMA is bullish.
Strong Sell Alert: Triggered when Stoch RSI is overbought, %K crosses below %D, and TEMA is bearish.
General Buy Alert: Triggered on any bullish crossover (%K > %D) when TEMA is not bearish.
General Sell Alert: Triggered on any bearish crossover (%K < %D) when TEMA is not bullish.
Inputs
Stochastic RSI Settings (group “Stochastic RSI”):
K (smoothK): Period length for smoothing the %K line (default 3, minimum 1)
D (smoothD): Period length for smoothing the %D line (default 3, minimum 1)
RSI Length (lengthRSI): Number of bars used for the RSI calculation (default 50, minimum 1)
Stochastic Length (lengthStoch): Number of bars for the Stochastic oscillator applied to RSI (default 50, minimum 1)
RSI Source (src): Price source for the RSI (default = close)
TEMA Settings (group “Triple EMA”):
TEMA Length (lengthTEMA): Number of bars used for each of the three EMAs (default 9, minimum 1)
How to Use
Add the Script
Copy and paste the indicator code into TradingView’s Pine Editor (version 6).
Save the script and add it to your chart as “Stochastic RSI + Triple EMA (StochTEMA).”
Adjust Inputs
Choose shorter lengths for lower timeframes (e.g., intraday scalping) and longer lengths for higher timeframes (e.g., swing trading).
Fine-tune the Stochastic RSI parameters (K, D, RSI Length, Stochastic Length) to suit the volatility of the instrument.
Modify TEMA Length if you prefer a faster or slower moving average response.
Interpret Signals
Primary Entries/Exits: Focus on “BUY STRONG” and “SELL STRONG” signals, as they require both oversold/overbought conditions and a confirming TEMA trend.
Confirmation Signals: Use “BUY MEDIUM”/“BUY WEAK” to confirm or add to an existing position when the market is trending. Similarly, “SELL MEDIUM”/“SELL WEAK” can be used to scale out or confirm bearish momentum.
Support/Resistance Dots: These help identify recent swing lows (green dots) and swing highs (red dots) that were tagged by strong signals—useful to place stop-loss or profit-target orders.
Set Alerts
Open the Alerts menu (bell icon) in TradingView, choose this script, and select the desired alert condition (e.g., “BUY Signal Strong”).
Configure notifications (popup, email, webhook) according to your trading workflow.
Notes & Best Practices
Filtering False Signals: By combining Stoch RSI crossovers with TEMA trend confirmation, most false breakouts during choppy price action are filtered out.
Timeframe Selection: This indicator works on all timeframes, but shorter timeframes may generate frequent signals—consider higher-timeframe confirmation when trading lower timeframes.
Risk Management: Always use proper position sizing and stop-loss placement. An “oversold” or “overbought” reading can remain extended for some time in strong trends.
Backtesting/Optimization: Before live trading, backtest different parameter combinations on historical data to find the optimal balance between sensitivity and reliability for your chosen instrument.
No Guarantee of Profits: As with any technical indicator, past performance does not guarantee future results. Use in conjunction with other forms of analysis (volume, price patterns, fundamentals).

Heikin-Ashi Mean Reversion Oscillator [Alpha Extract]The Heikin-Ashi Mean Reversion Oscillator combines the smoothing characteristics of Heikin-Ashi candlesticks with mean reversion analysis to create a powerful momentum oscillator. This indicator applies Heikin-Ashi transformation twice - first to price data and then to the oscillator itself - resulting in smoother signals while maintaining sensitivity to trend changes and potential reversal points.
🔶 CALCULATION
Heikin-Ashi Transformation: Converts regular OHLC data to smoothed Heikin-Ashi values
Component Analysis: Calculates trend strength, body deviation, and price deviation from mean
Oscillator Construction: Combines components with weighted formula (40% trend strength, 30% body deviation, 30% price deviation)
Double Smoothing: Applies EMA smoothing and second Heikin-Ashi transformation to oscillator values
Signal Generation: Identifies trend changes and crossover points with overbought/oversold levels
Formula:
HA Close = (Open + High + Low + Close) / 4
HA Open = (Previous HA Open + Previous HA Close) / 2
Trend Strength = Normalized consecutive HA candle direction
Body Deviation = (HA Body - Mean Body) / Mean Body * 100
Price Deviation = ((HA Close - Price Mean) / Price Mean * 100) / Standard Deviation * 25
Raw Oscillator = (Trend Strength * 0.4) + (Body Deviation * 0.3) + (Price Deviation * 0.3)
Final Oscillator = 50 + (EMA(Raw Oscillator) / 2)
🔶 DETAILS Visual Features:
Heikin-Ashi Candlesticks: Smoothed oscillator representation using HA transformation with vibrant teal/red coloring
Overbought/Oversold Zones: Horizontal lines at customizable levels (default 70/30) with background highlighting in extreme zones
Moving Averages: Optional fast and slow EMA overlays for additional trend confirmation
Signal Dashboard: Real-time table showing current oscillator status (Overbought/Oversold/Bullish/Bearish) and buy/sell signals
Reference Lines: Middle line at 50 (neutral), with 0 and 100 boundaries for range visualization
Interpretation:
Above 70: Overbought conditions, potential selling opportunity
Below 30: Oversold conditions, potential buying opportunity
Bullish HA Candles: Green/teal candles indicate upward momentum
Bearish HA Candles: Red candles indicate downward momentum
MA Crossovers: Fast EMA above slow EMA suggests bullish momentum, below suggests bearish momentum
Zone Exits: Price moving out of extreme zones (above 70 or below 30) often signals trend continuation
🔶 EXAMPLES
Mean Reversion Signals: When the oscillator reaches extreme levels (above 70 or below 30), it identifies potential reversal points where price may revert to the mean.
Example: Oscillator reaching 80+ levels during strong uptrends often precedes short-term pullbacks, providing profit-taking opportunities.
Trend Change Detection: The double Heikin-Ashi smoothing helps identify genuine trend changes while filtering out market noise.
Example: When oscillator HA candles change from red to teal after oversold readings, this confirms potential trend reversal from bearish to bullish.
Moving Average Confirmation: Fast and slow EMA crossovers on the oscillator provide additional confirmation of momentum shifts.
Example: Fast EMA crossing above slow EMA while oscillator is rising from oversold levels provides strong bullish confirmation signal.
Dashboard Signal Integration: The real-time dashboard combines oscillator status with directional signals for quick decision-making.
Example: Dashboard showing "Oversold" status with "BUY" signal when HA candles turn bullish provides clear entry timing.
🔶 SETTINGS
Customization Options:
Calculation: Oscillator period (default 14), smoothing factor (1-50, default 2)
Levels: Overbought threshold (50-100, default 70), oversold threshold (0-50, default 30)
Moving Averages: Toggle display, fast EMA length (default 9), slow EMA length (default 21)
Visual Enhancements: Show/hide signal dashboard, customizable table position
Alert Conditions: Oversold bounce, overbought reversal, bullish/bearish MA crossovers
The Heikin-Ashi Mean Reversion Oscillator provides traders with a sophisticated momentum tool that combines the smoothing benefits of Heikin-Ashi analysis with mean reversion principles. The double transformation process creates cleaner signals while the integrated dashboard and multiple confirmation methods help traders identify high-probability entry and exit points during both trending and ranging market conditions.
Удаление меток TP и SLIndicator Description “TP and SL Label Removal”
Introduction
The “TP and SL Label Removal” indicator is designed to automatically manage labels on a chart, representing Take Profit (TP) and Stop Loss (SL) levels. This indicator creates labels based on technical conditions and removes them when they become outdated (exceeding a specified number of bars). It also displays the number of active labels in a convenient table, simplifying monitoring.
Purpose
• Automatically create TP and SL labels when the price crosses the 20-period Simple Moving Average (SMA).
• Remove outdated labels after a specified number of bars.
• Visualize the count of active labels in a table on the chart.
Parameters
• Keep Labels (Bars): The number of bars after which TP and SL labels will be removed (default is 100). Adjustable with a minimum value of 1.
Usage Instructions
1 Add the indicator to the chart via the Pine Script editor or import the provided code.
2 Adjust the “Keep Labels (Bars)” parameter according to your preferences.
3 Ensure the chart has sufficient data (recommended timeframe: 1 hour or higher) to observe SMA(20) crossovers.
4 Watch for green TP labels (on bullish crossovers) and red SL labels (on bearish crossovers).
5 Check the table in the top-right corner of the chart to monitor the number of active labels.
Notes
• The indicator operates in overlay mode (overlay=true), displaying labels and the table over the price chart.
• Labels are automatically created upon price crossing the SMA(20). Test labels are added on the first bar for debugging purposes.
• Outdated labels are removed if their age exceeds the “Keep Labels (Bars)” parameter value.
• Use the Pine Script console to view logs about label creation and removal for debugging.

Multi time frame combination signal1. Concept and originality
This indicator was developed with the aim of displaying signals of multiple time frames and moving averages of the fixed time frame different from the current chart. When buying and selling, if you use basic signals such as MACD, RSI, TSI, etc. on a certain time frame, you may miss shorter or longer-term trends. In addition, if a long-term upswing sign occurs and you want to search for a short-term pullback, you may want to use multiple signals of different time frames in combination. Therefore, I aimed to display signals of shorter and longer time frames simultaneously on one chart in addition to the current time frame. Furthermore, I considered a comosite signal that combines each basic signal and moving average line, and combines arbitrary signals of multiple arbitrary time frames in a single indicator.
2. Function
This indicator provides a composite signal that combines multiple basic indicators (MACD, RSI, TSI) and moving average lines on three arbitrary time frames. Other auxiliary functions include Bollinger bands, Ichimoku cloud, Fair Value Gap (FVG), and Order Block (OB). The three time frames can be set independently for each signal.
2.1 Combination signal
When you check "Show combination signal", the signals that combine each checked basic indicator with "and" will be displayed. If you want to combine each basic indicator with "or", uncheck "Combination signal" and check all the indicators you want to use. Each indicator can also be combined with a moving average. The indicators that can be combined with "Combination signal" are MACD, RSI, TSI and moving average. Bollinger bands, Ichimoku Kinko Hyo, Fair Value Gap (FVG) and Order Block (OB) are displayed alone and cannot be incorporated into "Combination signal".
When you check "Show short/middle/long term signal", the checked signals will be displayed on the chart with ▲ or ▼. ▲ indicates crossover and ▼ indicates crossunder. Short is displayed small and long is displayed large. The short/middle/long time frames can be set separately. It is not necessary that the short is shorter than the middle or long.
2.2 MACD signal
Check "Show MACD signal" to display the MACD (Moving Average Convergence Divergence) signal. Check "Show short/middle/long term signal" to display the signal of the checked time frame with ▲ or ▼ on the chart. Short is displayed small, and long is displayed large. The short/middle/long time frames can be set separately. Short does not necessarily have to be shorter than middle or long. EMA is usually used for the moving average of MACD, but this indicator allows you to select the type of moving average from SMA, EMA, SMMA (RMA), WMA, and VWMA. You can enter the base period for Long, Short, and Signal. This period is the period for the selected time frame. Check "Use impulse MACD" to suppress signals in range markets. In this case, "Long length", "Short length", and "Signal length" are ignored and the value of "Impulse MACD length" is applied. Please note that some functions do not work properly on charts that do not provide volume.
2.3 RSI signal
Check "Show RSI signal" to display the RSI (Relative Strength Index) signal. Check "Show short/middle/long term signal" to display the signal of the checked time frame on the chart with ▲ or ▼. Short is displayed small, and long is displayed large. Short/middle/long time frames can be set separately. Short does not necessarily have to be shorter than middle and long. You can enter the overbought and oversold thresholds in the range of 0 to 100. You can enter the base period of the signal. Check "Use VRSI" to add volume to the RSI. Check "Use Stochastic RSI" to display the Stochastic RSI signal. In this case, the base period of the RSI signal is ignored. For Stochastic RSI, you can enter the type of moving average, the period for smoothing, and the base period. These values are ignored by the normal RSI and VRSI. Please note that some functions do not work properly on charts for which volume is not provided.
2.4 TSI signal
Checking "Show TSI signal" displays the TSI (True Strength Index) signal. Checking "Show short/middle/long term signal" displays the signals of the checked time frame as ▲ or ▼ on the chart. Short is displayed small, and long is displayed large. The short/middle/long time frames can be set separately. Short does not necessarily have to be shorter than the middle and long. You can enter the overbought and oversold thresholds in the range of -100 to 100. You can enter the base period for Long, Short, and Signal. You can select the type of moving average from SMA, EMA, SMMA (RMA), WMA, and VWMA. Please note that some functions do not work properly on charts for which volume is not provided.
2.5 Moving average
Check "Show moving average" to display the moving average for the specified time frame. The time frame can be set to match the chart time frame or fixed. The type of moving average can be selected from SMA, EMA, SMMA (RMA), WMA, and VWMA. Check each "Show MA" to display the moving average on the chart. Up to five moving averages can be displayed. Check each "Above MA" or "Below MA" to add the "and" condition in "Combination signal" whether the price is above or below the moving average.
2.6 Bollinger band
Check "Show bollinger band" to display the Bollinger band. You can enter the time frame, type of moving average, base period, and standard deviation. The type of moving average can be selected from SMA, EMA, SMMA (RMA), WMA, and VWMA. This auxiliary function is independent and is not taken into account in "Combination signal".
2.7 Ichimoku cloud
Check "Show Ichimoku cloud" to display the Ichimoku cloud. You can enter the time frame, base period, leading line and lagging line periods. This auxiliary function is independent and is not taken into account in "Combination signal".
2.8 Fair Value Gap
Check "Show fair value gap" to display the Fair Value Gap. Check "Show short/middle/long term signal" to display the Fair Value Gap zone of the checked time frame as a gray square on the chart. You can set the threshold value to suppress the display and whether or not to display the label. This auxiliary function is independent and is not taken into account in "Combination signal".
2.9 Order Block
Check "Show order block" to display the Order Block. Check "Show short/middle/long term signal" to display the Order Block zone of the checked time frame as a green or red square on the chart. You can set the threshold value to suppress the display and whether or not to display the label. This auxiliary function is independent and does not contribute to the "Combination signal".
Volume Point of Control with Fib Based Profile🍀Description:
This indicator is a comprehensive volume profile analysis tool designed to identify key price levels based on trading activity within user-defined timeframes. It plots the Point of Control (POC), Value Area High (VAH), and Value Area Low (VAL), along with dynamically calculated Fibonacci levels derived from the developing period's range. It offers extensive customization for both historical and developing levels.
🍀Core Features:
Volume Profiling (POC, VAH, VAL):
Calculates and plots the POC (price level with the highest volume), VAH, and VAL for a selected timeframe (e.g., Daily, Weekly).
The Value Area percentage is configurable. 70% is common on normal volume profiles, but this script allows you to configure multiple % levels via the fib levels. I recommend using 2 versions of this indicator on a chart, one has Value Area at 1 (100% - high and low of lookback) and the second is a specified VA area (i.e. 70%) like in the chart snapshot above. See examples at the bottom.
Historical Levels:
Plots POC, VAH, and VAL from previous completed periods.
Optionally displays only "Unbroken" levels – historical levels that price has not yet revisited, which can act as stronger magnets or resistance/support.
The user can manage the number of historical lines displayed to prevent chart clutter.
Developing Levels:
Shows the POC, VAH, and VAL as they form in real-time during the current, incomplete period. This provides insight into intraday/intra-period value migration.
Dynamic Fibonacci Levels:
Calculates and plots Fibonacci retracement/extension levels based dynamically on the range between the developing POC and the developing VAH/VAL.
Offers 8 configurable % levels above and below POC that can be toggled on/off.
Visual Customization:
Extensive options for colors, line styles, and widths for all plotted levels.
Optional gradient fill for the Value Area that visualizes current price distance from POC - option to invert the colors as well.
Labels for developing levels and Fibonacci levels for easy identification.
🍀Characteristics:
Volume-Driven: Levels are derived from actual trading volume, reflecting areas of high participation and price agreement/disagreement.
Timeframe Specific: The results are entirely dependent on the chosen profile timeframe.
Dynamic & Static Elements: Developing levels and Fibs update live, while historical levels remain fixed once their period closes.
Lagging (Historical) & Potentially Leading: Historical levels are based on the past, but are often respected by future price action. Developing levels show current dynamics.
🍀How to Use It:
Identifying Support & Resistance: Historical and developing POCs, VAHs, and VALs are often key areas where price may react. Unbroken levels are particularly noteworthy.
Market Context & Sentiment: Trading above the POC suggests bullish strength/acceptance of higher prices, while trading below suggests bearishness/acceptance of lower prices.
Entry/Exit Zones: Interactions with these levels (rejections, breakouts, tests) can provide potential entry or exit signals, especially when confirming with other analysis methods.
Dynamic Targets: The Fibonacci levels calculated from the developing POC-VA range offer potential intraday/intra-period price targets or areas of interest.
Understanding Value Migration: Observing the movement of the developing POC/VAH/VAL throughout the period reveals where value is currently being established.
🍀Potential Drawbacks:
Input Sensitivity: The choice of timeframe, Value Area percentage, and volume resolution heavily influences the generated levels. Experimentation is needed for optimal settings per instrument/market. (I've found that Range Charts can provide very accurate volume levels on TV since the time element is removed. This helps to refine the accuracy of price levels with high volume.)
Volume Data Dependency: Requires accurate volume data. May be less reliable on instruments with sparse or questionable volume reporting.
Chart Clutter: Enabling all features simultaneously can make the chart busy. Utilize the line management inputs and toggle features as needed.
Not a Standalone Strategy: This indicator provides context and key levels. It should be used alongside other technical analysis tools and price action reading for robust decision-making.
Developing Level Fluctuation: Developing POC/VA/Fib levels can shift considerably, especially early in a new period, before settling down as more volume accumulates and time passes.
🍀Recommendations/Examples:
I recommend have this indicator on your chart twice, one has the VA set at 1 (100%) and has the fib levels plotted. The second has the VA set to 0.7 (70%) to highlight the defined VA.
Here is an example with 3 on a chart. VA of 100%, VA of 80%, and VA of 20%

Percent Change of Range CandlesPercent Change of Range Candles 2.0 – Explanation and Usage Guide - with a new visual display
Purpose of the Indicator
This indicator measures the percentage change in price relative to the total range (high - low) over a defined period. Its primary function is to display trend strength — whether the price has significantly risen or fallen in relation to its historical high and low over the selected length.
It serves as a tool for identifying momentum shifts, extreme zones, and potential entry and exit points.
How It Works
Main signal (c):
Calculated as the difference between the current close and the close length periods ago, divided by the total range over the same period.
The result is multiplied by 100 to express it as a percentage.
Positive values indicate bullish pressure, and negative values indicate bearish pressure.
Supportive lines (o, h, l):
o is the average of the last 5 values of c – used to observe momentum smoothing.
h and l are adaptive values based on short-term recalculations (25% of the main length), adjusted depending on the current direction of the trend.
Indicator Levels and Their Meaning
Level Meaning
0 A key boundary between bullish and bearish zones. Proximity to this line often suggests consolidation or a potential reversal.
+70 Strong bullish momentum. May indicate overbought strength – potential for a pullback.
+100 Extreme overbought zone. This could signal market exhaustion and an upcoming drop.
-70 Strong bearish momentum. Could indicate oversold strength, but still within a trending market.
-100 Extreme oversold zone. Signals a possible reversal or at least a short-term bounce.
How to Use It in Trading
Around the Zero Level (0):
This is the neutral zone. When c approaches zero after a strong trend, it can indicate momentum weakening and a potential trend shift.
A cross from negative to positive values could signal early bullish reversal.
A cross from positive to negative could indicate early bearish reversal.
Extreme Levels ±100:
These are not automatic "buy" or "sell" signals but mark extreme market conditions.
Approaching +100 suggests the market has risen too much, possibly overheated – be ready for a correction.
Approaching -100 suggests the market has fallen too much, potentially oversold – be prepared for a recovery.
Best used in combination with other filters like RSI, MA, price action, or volume.
Visual Interpretation
Green line (positive c) represents bullish momentum.
Red line (negative c) represents bearish momentum.
Gray lines (o, h, l) help visualize averages and wicks of the price move for better understanding of the internal price dynamics.
Conclusion
The Percent Change of Range Candles indicator is useful for:
Tracking medium-term price momentum.
Detecting overbought/oversold conditions.
Identifying consolidation phases and possible reversals.
For best results, use it in combination with other indicators and with a broader view of market context (e.g., higher timeframes).
