Johnny's Volatility-Driven Trend Identifier w/ Reversal SignalsJohnny's Volatility-Driven Trend Identifier w/ Reversal Signals is designed to identify high-probability trend shifts and reversals by incorporating volatility, momentum, and impulse-based filtering. It is specifically built for traders who want to capture strong trend movements while minimizing false signals caused by low volatility noise.
By leveraging Rate of Change (ROC), Relative Strength Index (RSI), and Average True Range (ATR)-based volatility detection, the indicator dynamically adapts to market conditions. It highlights breakout trends, reversals, and early signs of momentum shifts using strategically placed labels and color-coded trend visualization.
Inspiration taken from Top G indicator .
What This Indicator Does
The Volatility-Driven Trend Identifier works by:
Measuring Market Extremes & Momentum:
Uses ROC normalization with standard deviation to identify impulse moves in price action.
Implements RSI filtering to determine overbought/oversold conditions that validate trend strength.
Utilizes ATR-based volatility tracking to ensure signals only appear when meaningful market movements are occurring.
Identifying Key Trend Events:
Power Peak (🔥): Marks a confirmed strong downtrend, ideal for shorting opportunities.
Surge (🚀): Indicates a confirmed strong uptrend, signaling a potential long entry.
Soft Surge (↗): Highlights a mild bullish reentry or early uptrend formation.
Soft Peak (↘): Shows a mild bearish reentry or early downtrend formation.
Providing Adaptive Filtering for Reliable Signals:
Filters out weak trends with a volatility check, ensuring signals appear only in strong market conditions.
Implements multi-level confirmation by combining trend strength metrics, preventing false breakouts.
Uses gradient-based visualization to color-code market sentiment for quick interpretation.
What This Indicator Signals
Breakouts & Impulse Moves: 🚀🔥
The Surge (🚀) and Power Peak (🔥) labels indicate confirmed momentum breakouts, where the trend has been validated by a combination of ROC impulse, RSI confirmation, and ATR volatility filtering.
These signals suggest that the market is entering a strong trend, and traders can align their entries accordingly.
Early Trend Formation & Reentries: ↗ ↘
The Soft Surge (↗) and Soft Peak (↘) labels indicate areas where a trend might be forming, but is not yet fully confirmed.
These signals help traders anticipate potential entries before the trend gains full strength.
Volatility-Adaptive Trend Filtering: 📊
Since the indicator only activates in volatile conditions, it avoids the pitfalls of low-range choppy markets where false signals frequently occur.
ATR-driven adaptive windowing allows the indicator to dynamically adjust its sensitivity based on real-time volatility conditions.
How to Use This Indicator
1. Identifying High-Probability Entries
Bullish Entries (Long Trades)
Look for 🚀 Surge signals in an uptrend.
Confirm with RSI (should be above 50 for momentum).
Ensure volatility is increasing to validate the breakout.
Use ↗ Soft Surge signals for early entries before the trend fully confirms.
Bearish Entries (Short Trades)
Look for 🔥 Power Peak signals in a downtrend.
RSI should be below 50, indicating downward momentum.
Volatility should be rising, ensuring market momentum is strong.
Use ↘ Soft Peak signals for early entries before a full bearish confirmation.
2. Avoiding False Signals
Ignore signals when the market is ranging (low ATR).
Check RSI and ROC alignment to ensure trend confirmation.
Use additional confluences (e.g., price action, support/resistance levels, moving averages) for enhanced accuracy.
3. Trend Confirmation & Filtering
The stronger the trend, the higher the likelihood that Surge (🚀) and Power Peak (🔥) signals will continue in their direction.
Soft Surge (↗) and Soft Peak (↘) act as early warning signals before major breakouts occur.
What Makes This a Machine Learning-Inspired Moving Average?
While this indicator is not a direct implementation of machine learning (as Pine Script lacks AI/ML capabilities), it mimics machine learning principles by adapting dynamically to market conditions using the following techniques:
Adaptive Trend Selection:
It does not rely on fixed moving averages but instead adapts dynamically based on volatility expansion and momentum detection.
ATR-based filtering adjusts the indicator’s sensitivity to real-time conditions.
Multi-Factor Confirmation (Feature Engineering Equivalent in ML):
Combines ROC, RSI, and ATR in a structured way, similar to how ML models use multiple inputs to filter and classify data.
Implements conditional trend recognition, ensuring that only valid signals pass through the filter.
Noise Reduction with Data Smoothing:
The algorithm avoids false signals by incorporating trend intensity thresholds, much like how ML models remove outliers to refine predictions.
Adaptive filtering ensures that low-volatility environments do not produce misleading signals.
Why Use This Indicator?
✔ Reduces False Signals: Multi-factor validation ensures only high-confidence signals are triggered.
✔ Works in All Market Conditions: Volatility-adaptive nature allows the indicator to perform well in both trending and ranging markets.
✔ Great for Swing & Intraday Trading: It helps spot momentum shifts early and allows traders to catch major market moves before they fully develop.
✔ Visually Intuitive: Color-coded trends and clear signal markers make it easy to interpret.
Liquidity Trap Detector (LTD)The Liquidity Trap Detector is an advanced trading tool designed to identify liquidity zones and potential traps set by institutional players. It provides traders with a comprehensive framework to align with smart money movements, helping them avoid common retail pitfalls such as bull and bear traps.
The indicator focuses on detecting liquidity sweeps, breaker blocks, and areas of institutional accumulation/distribution. It integrates multiple technical analysis methods to offer high-probability signals and insights into how liquidity dynamics unfold in the market.
Note : This indicator is not designed for beginners; it is intended for traders who already have a solid understanding of trading fundamentals. It is tailored for individuals who are familiar with concepts like liquidity, order blocks, and traps. Traders with at least 6 months to 1 year of trading experience will fully appreciate the power and potential of this indicator, as they will have the necessary knowledge to leverage its features effectively. Beginners may find it challenging to grasp the advanced concepts embedded in this tool.
Why Combine These Elements?
The components of the Liquidity Trap Detector are carefully chosen to address the core challenges of identifying institutional activity and liquidity traps. Here’s why each element is included and how they work together:
1. Order Blocks:
• Purpose: Identify zones where large institutional players accumulate or distribute positions.
• Role in the Indicator: These zones act as primary liquidity areas, where price is likely to reverse or consolidate due to significant order flow.
2. Breaker Blocks:
• Purpose: Highlight areas where liquidity has been swept, leading to potential price reversals or continuations.
• Role in the Indicator: Confirms whether a liquidity trap has occurred and provides actionable levels for entry or exit.
3. ATR-Based Volatility Zones:
• Purpose: Filter signals based on market volatility to ensure trades align with statistically significant price movements.
• Role in the Indicator: Defines dynamic support and resistance zones, improving the accuracy of signal generation.
4. Volume Delta:
• Purpose: Measure the imbalance between aggressive buyers and sellers, often indicating institutional activity.
• Role in the Indicator: Validates whether a liquidity trap is backed by smart money absorption or retail-driven momentum.
5. Trend Confirmation (EMA):
• Purpose: Align liquidity trap signals with the broader market trend, reducing false positives.
• Role in the Indicator: Ensures trades are executed in the direction of the prevailing trend.
What Makes It Unique?
1. Gen 1 Liquidity Zones and Traps:
• The indicator identifies Gen 1 Liquidity Zones, which represent the first areas where liquidity is accumulated or swept. While these zones often lead to reversals, they can sometimes fail, resulting in continuation moves. The indicator highlights these scenarios, helping traders adapt.
• For example, a bull trap identified in a Gen 1 Zone may see price move higher after an initial red candle, completing a secondary liquidity sweep before reversing.
2. Multi-Layer Signal Validation:
• Signals are only generated when liquidity, volume, trend, and volatility align. This ensures high-probability setups and reduces noise in choppy markets.
3. Dynamic Adaptability:
• ATR-based zones and volume delta filtering allow the indicator to adapt to different market conditions, from trending to range-bound environments.
4. Institutional Insights:
• By focusing on liquidity sweeps, order blocks, and volume imbalances, the indicator helps traders align with institutional strategies rather than retail behavior.
How It Works
The Liquidity Trap Detector uses a step-by-step process to identify and validate liquidity traps:
1. Identifying Liquidity Zones:
• Order Blocks: Mark key zones of institutional activity where price is likely to reverse.
• Breaker Blocks: Highlight areas where liquidity sweeps have occurred, signaling potential traps.
2. Filtering with Volatility (ATR):
• ATR defines dynamic support and resistance zones, ensuring signals are only generated near significant price levels.
3. Validating Traps with Volume Delta:
• Volume delta shows whether liquidity sweeps are backed by aggressive buying/selling from institutions, confirming the trap’s validity.
4. Aligning with Market Trends:
• EMA ensures signals align with the broader trend to reduce false positives.
5. Monitoring Gen 1 Liquidity Zones:
• The indicator highlights Gen 1 Liquidity Zones where price may initially reverse or sweep further before a true reversal. Traders are alerted to potential continuation scenarios if volume or momentum suggests unmet liquidity above/below the zone.
How to Use It
Buy Signal:
• Triggered when:
• Price sweeps below an order block and forms a breaker block, indicating a liquidity trap.
• Volume delta confirms aggressive selling absorption.
• ATR volatility zone supports the reversal.
• EMA confirms a bullish trend.
• Action: Enter a Buy trade and set:
• Stop Loss (SL): Below the order block.
• Take Profit (TP): Near the next resistance or liquidity zone.
Sell Signal:
• Triggered when:
• Price sweeps above an order block and forms a breaker block, indicating a liquidity trap.
• Volume delta confirms aggressive buying absorption.
• ATR volatility zone supports the reversal.
• EMA confirms a bearish trend.
• Action: Enter a Sell trade and set:
• SL: Above the order block.
• TP: Near the next support or liquidity zone.
Timeframes:
• Best suited for scalping and intraday trading on lower timeframes (5m, 15m, 1H).
• Can also be applied to swing trading on higher timeframes.
Example Scenarios:
1. Bull Trap in a Gen 1 Zone:
• Price sweeps above a resistance order block, forms a breaker block, and reverses sharply. However, if momentum persists, price may continue higher after a minor pullback. The indicator helps traders anticipate this by monitoring volume and trend shifts.
2. Bear Trap with Secondary Sweep:
• Price sweeps below a support order block but fails to reverse immediately, instead forming a secondary liquidity sweep before turning bullish. The indicator highlights both scenarios, allowing for flexible trade management.
Why Use It?
The Liquidity Trap Detector offers:
1. Precision: Combines multiple filters to identify institutional liquidity traps with high accuracy.
2. Adaptability: Works across trending and range-bound markets.
3. Smart Money Alignment: Helps traders avoid retail traps by focusing on liquidity sweeps and institutional behavior.

Radial Basis Kernal ATR [BackQuant]Radial Basis Kernel ATR
The Radial Basis Kernel ATR is a trading indicator that combines the classic Average True Range (ATR) with advanced Radial Basis Function (RBF) kernel smoothing . This innovative approach creates a highly adaptive and precise tool for detecting volatility, identifying trends, and providing dynamic support and resistance levels.
With its configurable parameters and ability to adjust to market conditions, this indicator offers traders a robust framework for making informed decisions across various assets and timeframes.
Key Feature: Radial Basis Function Kernel Smoothing
The Radial Basis Function (RBF) kernel is at the heart of this indicator, applying sophisticated mathematical techniques to smooth price data and calculate an enhanced version of ATR. By weighting data points dynamically, the RBF kernel ensures that recent price movements are given appropriate emphasis without overreacting to short-term noise.
The RBF kernel uses a gamma factor to control the degree of smoothing, making it highly adaptable to different asset classes and market conditions:
Gamma Factor Adjustment :
For low-volatility data (e.g., indices), a smaller gamma (0.05–0.1) ensures smoother trends and avoids overly sharp responses.
For high-volatility data (e.g., cryptocurrencies), a larger gamma (0.1–0.2) captures the increased price fluctuations while maintaining stability.
Experimentation is Key : Traders are encouraged to backtest and visually compare different gamma values to find the optimal setting for their specific asset and strategy.
The gamma factor dynamically adjusts based on the variance of the source data, ensuring the indicator remains effective across a wide range of market conditions.
Average True Range (ATR) with Dynamic Bands
The ATR is a widely used volatility measure that captures the degree of price movement over a specific period. This indicator enhances the traditional ATR by integrating the RBF kernel, resulting in a smoothed and adaptive ATR calculation.
Dynamic bands are created around the RBF kernel output using a user-defined ATR factor , offering valuable insights into potential support and resistance zones. These bands expand and contract based on market volatility, providing a visual representation of potential price movement.
Moving Average Confluence
For additional confirmation, the indicator includes the option to overlay a moving average on the smoothed ATR. Traders can choose from several moving average types, such as EMA , SMA , or Hull , and adjust the lookback period to suit their strategy. This feature helps identify broader trends and potential confluence areas, making the indicator even more versatile.
Long and Short Trend Detection
The indicator provides long and short signals based on the directional movement of the smoothed ATR:
Long Signal : Triggered when the ATR crosses above its previous value, indicating bullish momentum.
Short Signal : Triggered when the ATR crosses below its previous value, signaling bearish momentum.
These trend signals are visually highlighted on the chart with green and red bar coloring (optional), providing clear and actionable insights.

00 Averaging Down Backtest Strategy by RPAlawyer v21FOR EDUCATIONAL PURPOSES ONLY! THE CODE IS NOT YET FULLY DEVELOPED, BUT IT CAN PROVIDE INTERESTING DATA AND INSIGHTS IN ITS CURRENT STATE.
This strategy is an 'averaging down' backtester strategy. The goal of averaging/doubling down is to buy more of an asset at a lower price to reduce your average entry price.
This backtester code proves why you shouldn't do averaging down, but the code can be developed (and will be developed) further, and there might be settings even in its current form that prove that averaging down can be done effectively.
Different averaging down strategies exist:
- Linear/Fixed Amount: buy $1000 every time price drops 5%
- Grid Trading: Placing orders at price levels, often with increasing size, like $1000 at -5%, $2000 at -10%
- Martingale: doubling the position size with each new entry
- Reverse Martingale: decreasing position size as price falls: $4000, then $2000, then $1000
- Percentage-Based: position size based on % of remaining capital, like 10% of available funds at each level
- Dynamic/Adaptive: larger entries during high volatility, smaller during low
- Logarithmic: position sizes increase logarithmically as price drops
Unlike the above average costing strategies, it applies averaging down (I use DCA as a synonym) at a very strong trend reversal. So not at a certain predetermined percentage negative PNL % but at a trend reversal signaled by an indicator - hence it most closely resembles a dynamically moving grid DCA strategy.
Both entering the trade and averaging down assume a strong trend. The signals for trend detection are provided by an indicator that I published under the name '00 Parabolic SAR Trend Following Signals by RPAlawyer', but any indicator that generates numeric signals of 1 and -1 for buy and sell signals can be used.
The indicator must be connected to the strategy: in the strategy settings under 'External Source' you need to select '00 Parabolic SAR Trend Following Signals by RPAlawyer: Connector'. From this point, the strategy detects when the indicator generates buy and sell signals.
The strategy considers a strong trend when a buy signal appears above a very conservative ATR band, or a sell signal below the ATR band. The conservative ATR is chosen to filter ranging markets. This very conservative ATR setting has a default multiplier of 8 and length of 40. The multiplier can be increased up to 10, but there will be very few buy and sell signals at that level and DCA requirements will be very high. Trade entry and DCA occur at these strong trends. In the settings, the 'ATR Filter' setting determines the entry condition (e.g., ATR Filter multiplier of 9), and the 'DCA ATR' determines when DCA will happen (e.g., DCA ATR multiplier of 6).
The DCA levels and DCA amounts are determined as follows:
The first DCA occurs below the DCA Base Deviation% level (see settings, default 3%) which acts as a threshold. The thick green line indicates the long position avg price, and the thin red line below the green line indicates the 3% DCA threshold for long positions. The thick red line indicates the short position avg price, and the thin red line above the thick red line indicates the short position 3% DCA threshold. DCA size multiplier defines the DCA amount invested.
If the loss exceeds 3% AND a buy signal arrives below the lower ATR band for longs, or a sell signal arrives above the upper ATR band for shorts, then the first DCA will be executed. So the first DCA won't happen at 3%, rather 3% is a threshold where the additional condition is that the price must close above or below the ATR band (let's say the first DCA occured at 8%) – this is why the code resembles a dynamic grid strategy, where the grid moves such that alongside the first 3% threshold, a strong trend must also appear for DCA. At this point, the thick green/red line moves because the avg price is modified as a result of the DCA, and the thin red line indicating the next DCA level also moves. The next DCA level is determined by the first DCA level, meaning modified avg price plus an additional +8% + (3% * the Step Scale Multiplier in the settings). This next DCA level will be indicated by the modified thin red line, and the price must break through this level and again break through the ATR band for the second DCA to occur.
Since all this wasn't complicated enough, and I was always obsessed by the idea that when we're sitting in an underwater position for days, doing DCA and waiting for the price to correct, we can actually enter a short position on the other side, on which we can realize profit (if the broker allows taking hedge positions, Binance allows this in Europe).
This opposite position in this strategy can open from the point AFTER THE FIRST DCA OF THE BASE POSITION OCCURS. This base position first DCA actually indicates that the price has already moved against us significantly so time to earn some money on the other side. Breaking through the ATR band is also a condition for entry here, so the hedge position entry is not automatic, and the condition for further DCA is breaking through the DCA Base Deviation (default 3%) and breaking through the ATR band. So for the 'hedge' or rather opposite position, the entry and further DCA conditions are the same as for the base position. The hedge position avg price is indicated by a thick black line and the Next Hedge DCA Level is indicated by a thin black line.
The TPs are indicated by green labels for base positions and red labels for hedge positions.
No SL built into the strategy at this point but you are free to do your coding.
Summary data can be found in the upper right corner.
The fantastic trend reversal indicator Machine learning: Lorentzian Classification by jdehorty can be used as an external indicator, choose 'backtest stream' for the external source. The ATR Band multiplicators need to be reduced to 5-6 when using Lorentz.
The code can be further developed in several aspects, and as I write this, I already have a few ideas 😊

1. Exponential Moving Average (EMA):
• The EMA serves as the foundation for trend detection, offering a smoothed representation of price movement over a user-defined period.
• Aids in distinguishing bullish and bearish trends effectively.
2. Average True Range (ATR):
• ATR is used to gauge market volatility, ensuring that the indicator adapts to changing market conditions.
• Facilitates the normalization of trend strength relative to current market volatility.
3. Risk-Adjusted Trend Score:
• Computes the difference between the price and EMA and normalizes it using the ATR to account for risk.
• This metric allows traders to focus on trends with favorable risk-reward ratios, filtering out weak or high-risk setups.
4. Dynamic Scaling:
• Adjusts the risk-adjusted score to fit within the chart’s price range, making the visualization intuitive and easy to interpret.
5. Buy/Sell Signals:
• Buy signals are triggered when the risk-adjusted score crosses above a positive threshold.
• Sell signals are triggered when the score crosses below a negative threshold.
• Signals are plotted directly on the chart with intuitive markers for quick decision-making.
6. Background Color Zones:
• Highlights bullish and bearish trend zones using subtle background shading, enhancing visual clarity.
Reason for Combining These Elements
The Risk-Adjusted Trend Indicator blends elements of trend analysis, volatility measurement, and risk assessment to address a fundamental challenge in trading: identifying high-confidence trades that align with a trader’s risk tolerance. Here’s why these components were chosen and how they work together:
1. EMA (Trend Detection):
• Provides a reliable baseline for trend direction, ensuring that the indicator aligns with the market’s prevailing trend.
2. ATR (Volatility Normalization):
• Adjusts trend strength calculations based on market volatility, allowing the indicator to adapt to varying market conditions and avoid false signals in high-volatility environments.
3. Risk-Adjusted Score:
• By factoring in both trend strength and volatility, this score ensures that only trends with favorable risk-reward dynamics are highlighted.
• This approach minimizes overtrading and reduces exposure to high-risk setups.
4. Dynamic Scaling:
• Ensures that the indicator’s outputs remain visually accessible, regardless of the asset or timeframe being analyzed.
• Enhances usability by aligning the score with price action on the chart.

Improved Trend Shot | JeffreyTimmermansImproved Trend Shot
The "Improved Trend Shot" is an advanced trend-following tool that integrates cutting-edge features and the principles of John Ehlers’ SuperSmoother Filter to provide traders with more accurate trend detection and better decision-making. This enhanced version includes multiple smoothing types, customizable lengths, dynamic alerts, and a comprehensive dashboard to help traders quickly interpret market conditions.
This script is inspired by "TRW" . However, it is more advanced and includes additional features and options.
Key Features and Improvements
Smoothed Lines and Trend Detection
The core of the Improved Smooth Trend Shot relies on three key lines to capture market momentum:
Fast Line: Highly sensitive to short-term price changes, offering rapid responsiveness to market movements.
Middle Line: Provides a medium-term view of market trends, acting as a more stable reference.
Slow Line: Focuses on long-term trends, offering a broader perspective on market direction.
These three smoothed lines interact dynamically to create a visual color-coded cloud that helps traders easily interpret market conditions:
Green Cloud: Indicates an upward trend when the Fast line is above the Slow line.
Red Cloud: Signals a downward trend when the Fast line is below the Slow line.
The cloud color adjusts based on the relative positioning of the Fast, Middle, and Slow lines, helping traders to identify bullish or bearish trends with ease.
Dynamic Cloud Visualization and Alerts
The cloud and trend lines adapt to market conditions, updating in real-time to reflect changes in trend strength and momentum. Traders can also set up real-time alerts to notify them of important trend shifts, such as:
Fast and Slow Crossovers: Alerts when the Fast line crosses the Slow line.
Middle and Slow Crossovers: Alerts when the Middle line crosses the Slow line.
This makes it easier to capture trading opportunities and respond promptly to market changes.
Enhanced Smoothing Options
Traders can now choose from multiple smoothing types, including:
EMA (Exponential Moving Average)
SMA (Simple Moving Average)
DEMA (Double Exponential Moving Average)
WMA (Weighted Moving Average)
Each smoothing type has different properties, allowing traders to select the best fit for their trading style. The smoothing length can also be customized, offering flexibility in fine-tuning how sensitive or stable the trend lines should be.
Improved Signal Logic and Precision
The signal logic has been optimized for better precision. Now, the system provides more accurate buy and sell alerts based on:
Trend Detection: The color-coded cloud and the relative positions of the Fast, Middle, and Slow lines help visualize whether the trend is bullish or bearish.
Rising and Falling Indicators: The indicator also checks if each line is rising or falling over the last three bars, offering early signals of momentum shifts.
Dashboard Insights
The dashboard provides real-time updates on the positions and movements of the smoothed lines:
Line Positions: Displays the positions of the Fast, Middle, and Slow lines.
Trend Direction: Shows whether each line is rising or falling.
Price Levels: Displays the price levels for each of the smoothed lines, offering clear reference points for market evaluation.
These features help traders better understand the state of the market, offering valuable insights for both trend-following and reversal-based strategies.
Crossovers and Signal Triggers
The Improved Smooth Trend Shot focuses on crossovers between the different smoothed lines as primary trading signals. There are two types of crossovers:
Fast Shots: This occurs when the Fast line crosses the Slow line.
Slow Shots: This occurs when the Middle line crosses the Slow line.
These crossovers serve as key entry or exit points for traders, helping them spot potential trend reversals. The improved logic ensures that crossovers are accurately detected, reducing the chances of false signals.
Customization Options
The Improved Smooth Trend Shot offers a high degree of customization:
Smoothing Length: Adjust the smoothing period to balance between fast responses and stable trends.
Source Selection: Default to the average of high and low prices (hl2), or choose other price sources.
Smoothing Type: Select from EMA, SMA, DEMA, or WMA for personalized trend analysis.
Signal Type: Choose between Fast Shots or Slow Shots based on the type of crossover you want to focus on.
Long, Medium, and Short-Term Applications
Although the default settings are optimized for long-term trend analysis, the Improved Smooth Trend Shot is highly adaptable. By adjusting the smoothing length and selecting different smoothing types, traders can use the tool for:
Short-Term Trading: Focus on fast responses to market shifts using shorter smoothing periods.
Medium-Term Trading: Tailor the settings to capture intermediate trends.
Long-Term Trend Analysis: Use longer smoothing periods for a more stable and comprehensive view of market dynamics.
Advanced ATR Filtering and Alerts
The inclusion of ATR (Average True Range) filtering helps ensure that signals are triggered only when significant price movements occur. This helps reduce noise and false signals, ensuring traders only act on meaningful market shifts.
Conclusion

It provides a customizable way to track price levels relative to the daily ATR, which can be useful for traders looking for volatility-based price targets or ranges.
///////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////
Customization Options:
- Line Width: Determines the thickness of the plotted lines for the ATR levels and daily open line, ranging from 1 to 10.
- Right Offset (minutes): A time offset (in minutes) that shifts the end of the daily opening price line to the right for visual clarity.
- Line Style: The user can choose between solid, dashed, or dotted lines for all the plotted levels.
- Display Options: Users can toggle the visibility of the daily opening price line (showDayLevel), labels (showLabels), and ATR levels (showATRLevels).
- Colors: Customizable colors for the daily opening price line (dayLevelColor), labels (labelTextColor), and the ATR levels for both positive and negative values (atrLevelPlusColor and atrLevelMinusColor).
ATR Settings:
- ATR Length: Defines the number of periods (bars) to use when calculating the ATR. The default is 180, which corresponds to the ATR calculated on the daily chart using the last 180 bars.
- ATR Multiplier: Allows the user to scale the ATR levels by a multiplier (from 0.1 to 5.0), adjusting the sensitivity of the levels.
- ATR Levels: Users can toggle visibility for several predefined ATR levels, such as +25%, +50%, +75%, +100%, -25%, -50%, -75%, and -100%. These levels represent price points above or below the daily open based on the ATR.
///////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////
ATR Levels Calculation:
- The ATR is calculated based on the daily chart using the ta.atr() function with the specified ATR length, default is set at 180.
- The script computes multiple ATR levels above and below the daily open price, adjusting each level by 25%, 50%, 75%, and 100% of the ATR value (scaled by the ATR multiplier).
ATR Level Plotting:
- For each ATR level (positive and negative), a line is drawn across the chart at the corresponding price level.
- The color, line style, and width of these lines can be customized.
- Each ATR level also has an optional label showing the percentage level (e.g., "ATR +25%") at the specified price, which is positioned at the end of the line.
- The labels are removed from the previous bars to avoid clutter.
Workflow:
- The script first calculates the daily opening price using the request.security() function to pull the open price from the daily chart.
- It then calculates the ATR based on the selected length and multiplier.
- The start time for the daily open line is determined by the bar's timestamp at the start of the day, and the end time is adjusted using the user-defined right offset.
- After determining the relevant price levels (for the opening price and ATR levels), the script plots these levels on the chart as lines. It handles the drawing and deletion of lines to ensure that the chart remains updated in real time.
- If labels are enabled, text labels are displayed next to the ATR levels and the daily open line, providing clear markers for the user.
Practical Use:
- Volatility Analysis: This indicator is useful for identifying key price levels based on daily volatility (ATR). Traders can use it to set potential targets or support/resistance levels that are adjusted for volatility.
- Day Trading or Swing Trading: The daily opening price line helps traders quickly see where the price opened for the day, and the ATR levels give a dynamic range for the day's potential price movement.
Overall, this script is designed to provide a clear, customizable view of daily price levels in relation to the ATR, helping traders make informed decisions based on volatility and price action.

Catalyst TrendCatalyst Trend – A Comprehensive Trend and Regime Analyzer
The Catalyst Trend indicator was designed to dynamically and intuitively merge various classic analytical techniques. The goal is to filter out short-term market noise and reveal reliable trend phases or potential turning points. Below is a detailed explanation of its core elements and practical usage.
1. Concept and Idea
Multidimensional Trend Detection
This indicator goes beyond a simple momentum or volatility focus. It factors in multiple measurements to provide a more well-rounded market perspective.
Versatile Indicator Fusion
Linear Regression (LinReg): Multiple LinReg calculations are combined to smooth out price fluctuations and produce a robust trendline—known here as the “Cycle Reduced Line.”
ADX (Average Directional Index): Measures trend strength.
RSI (Relative Strength Index): Flags potential overbought or oversold conditions, in both the current timeframe and a higher timeframe.
ATR (Average True Range): Assesses volatility; used to dynamically adjust calculation lengths.
By weaving these elements together, the indicator adds value beyond simply stacking multiple indicators. It adapts to real-time market conditions, aiming to highlight genuine trends and reduce false signals.
2. Key Functions and Calculations
Dynamic Length & Smoothing
A blend of volatility (ATR), ADX values, and RSI inputs determines how many candles are used in the LinReg calculations and how heavily the data is smoothed.
This allows the indicator to respond promptly during periods of high volatility, while automatically adjusting to filter out unnecessary noise in quieter phases.c
Cycle Reduced Line
The script averages several offset LinReg calculations to produce a cleaner overall signal. Random outliers are thus minimized, making the trend path more visually consistent.
An additional EMA smoothing (“Final Smoothing”) further stabilizes this trendline, reducing the impact of minor price fluctuations.
Channel Bands (Optional)
These bands are derived from the standard deviation of the price residual (the difference between the smoothed price and the trendline).
They highlight potential over-extension zones: the upper band can mark short-term overbought areas, while the lower band might indicate oversold conditions.
Trend and Sideways Determination
Slope Calculation: The slope of the trendline (comparing the current bar to the previous one) helps identify short-term directional shifts.
DX Threshold: Once the ADX surpasses a user-defined threshold and the slope is positive, it may indicate a developing uptrend. Similarly, if the slope is negative and ADX > threshold, it could signal a potential downtrend.
Multi-Level Color Coding
Original Mode: Interpolated colors reflect uptrends, downtrends, and sideways phases, factoring in metrics like ADX and RSI.
Single Color: For a neutral look, the indicator can be displayed in one uniform color.
HTF RSI: This mode uses the higher-timeframe RSI to color the trendline (Long/Short/Neutral), offering a quick gauge of overarching market pressure.
3. Use Cases and Interpretation
Timeframes & Markets
The indicator is versatile and adapts well to different intervals, from 5-minute charts to weekly views.
It can be applied to various markets—crypto, forex, stocks—since volatility and trend strength are universal concepts.
Signal Recognition
Color Swings into a more pronounced upward hue (e.g., green) may signal mounting strength.
Neutral or mixed tones often point to sideways phases, which breakout traders might watch for potential price surges.
A shift to downward colors (e.g., red) may indicate a growing bearish trend.
Channel Bands & Volatility
When the bands spread widely, it’s wise to proceed with caution: abrupt spikes above the upper band or below the lower band can flag rapid short-term extremes.
These bands are more of a reference for potential overextension than a strict buy or sell trigger.
Additional Confirmations
Not a standalone panacea: The Catalyst Trend indicator is an analytical tool, best used alongside other methods such as volume analysis or price action (candlestick patterns, support/resistance levels) to bolster confidence in trading decisions.
4. Practical Tips
Parameter Adjustments
Depending on the market—crypto vs. traditional currency pairs—different ADX, RSI, or smoothing periods may be more effective. Experiment with the settings to tailor the indicator to your preferred timeframe.
Strategic Integration
Trailing Stops: For those riding a trend, the trendline or the channel bands may serve as a reference to trail stop-loss orders.
Trend Confirmation: Using RSI and ADX filters can help traders avoid sideways markets or stay the course when the trend is strong.
5. Important Final Notes
No Guarantee of Profits
No indicator can predict the future. Markets are inherently volatile and often unpredictable.
Responsible Risk Management
Test the indicator in a demo environment or with smaller positions before committing to large trades.
DAILY Supertrend + EMA Crossover with RSI FilterThis strategy is a technical trading approach that combines multiple indicators—Supertrend, Exponential Moving Averages (EMAs), and the Relative Strength Index (RSI)—to identify and manage trades.
Core Components:
1. Exponential Moving Averages (EMAs):
Two EMAs, one with a shorter period (fast) and one with a longer period (slow), are calculated. The idea is to spot when the faster EMA crosses above or below the slower EMA. A fast EMA crossing above the slow EMA often suggests upward momentum, while crossing below suggests downward momentum.
2. Supertrend Indicator:
The Supertrend uses Average True Range (ATR) to establish dynamic support and resistance lines. These lines shift above or below price depending on the prevailing trend. When price is above the Supertrend line, the trend is considered bullish; when below, it’s considered bearish. This helps ensure that the strategy trades only in the direction of the overall trend rather than against it.
3. RSI Filter:
The RSI measures momentum. It helps avoid buying into markets that are already overbought or selling into markets that are oversold. For example, when going long (buying), the strategy only proceeds if the RSI is not too high, and when going short (selling), it only proceeds if the RSI is not too low. This filter is meant to improve the quality of the trades by reducing the chance of entering right before a reversal.
4. Time Filters:
The strategy only triggers entries during user-specified date and time ranges. This is useful if one wants to limit trading activity to certain trading sessions or periods with higher market liquidity.
5. Risk Management via ATR-based Stops and Targets:
Both stop loss and take profit levels are set as multiples of the ATR. ATR measures volatility, so when volatility is higher, both stops and profit targets adjust to give the trade more breathing room. Conversely, when volatility is low, stops and targets tighten. This dynamic approach helps maintain consistent risk management regardless of market conditions.
Overall Logic Flow:
- First, the market conditions are analyzed through EMAs, Supertrend, and RSI.
- When a buy (long) condition is met—meaning the fast EMA crosses above the slow EMA, the trend is bullish according to Supertrend, and RSI is below the specified “overbought” threshold—the strategy initiates or adds to a long position.
- Similarly, when a sell (short) condition is met—meaning the fast EMA crosses below the slow EMA, the trend is bearish, and RSI is above the specified “oversold” threshold—it initiates or adds to a short position.
- Each position is protected by an automatically calculated stop loss and a take profit level based on ATR multiples.
Intended Result:
By blending trend detection, momentum filtering, and volatility-adjusted risk management, the strategy aims to capture moves in the primary trend direction while avoiding entries at excessively stretched prices. Allowing multiple entries can potentially amplify gains in strong trends but also increases exposure, which traders should consider in their risk management approach.
In essence, this strategy tries to ride established trends as indicated by the Supertrend and EMAs, filter out poor-quality entries using RSI, and dynamically manage trade risk through ATR-based stops and targets.
ATR/DTR with Custom Percentage DisplayThis Pine Script indicator provides a detailed view of the Average True Range (ATR) and Daily True Range (DTR), along with additional calculated metrics to assist in analyzing price volatility. The key features of the indicator include:
ATR Calculation:

DTR Calculation:
The DTR represents the absolute range (high - low) of the current or chosen timeframe, providing insights into the day's price movement.
ATR/DTR Percentage:
This metric calculates the DTR as a percentage of the ATR, showing how the daily range compares to the average range, with dynamic coloring to highlight when it exceeds a user-defined threshold.
Custom Percentage of ATR:
Users can input a custom percentage to calculate and display a corresponding value of the ATR. For example, entering 15% will compute and display 15% of the ATR in the indicator’s table.
Dynamic Table Display:
The indicator outputs all these metrics in a well-organized table that is overlaid on the chart. The table includes:
ATR
DTR
ATR/DTR percentage
The user-defined percentage of ATR
Customizable Features:
Color Coding: The table dynamically changes its background color when the ATR/DTR percentage exceeds a user-defined threshold.
Placement Options: The table's position on the chart can be adjusted (e.g., bottom-right, top-center) for optimal visibility.
Use Case:
This indicator is ideal for traders who want a deeper understanding of market volatility and prefer visual representation of how current price movements compare to historical averages. It is especially useful for:
Setting volatility-based stop-loss levels.
Identifying high-volatility trading opportunities.
Tailoring strategies around price movement patterns.
ATR% multiple historyThe average true range (ATR) is a technical analysis indicator introduced by market technician J. Welles Wilder Jr. in his book New Concepts in Technical Trading Systems. It measures market volatility by decomposing the entire range of an asset's price for that period.
The true range is calculated as the greatest of the following: the current high minus the current low; the absolute value of the current high minus the previous close; and the absolute value of the current low minus the previous close.
The ATR is then a moving average, generally using 14 days, of the true ranges. Therefore, the parameter "Length" in this indicator is set to 14 by default.
This indicator offers three "Smoothing" techniques: RMA, SMA, and EMA, to calculate ATR. RMA is set as the default.
ATR% is calculated by dividing the ATR by the close of the latest bar.
The ATR% multiple builds on ATR%, serving as a measurable gauge of price extension from 50-MA. It is calculated by dividing the distance between the price and the 50-MA by ATR%. Users can change how the distance between the price and the 50-MA is calculated by switching the "Price" parameter among the high, close, and open of the bar.
Each security has a historical ATR% multiple at which it tends to retrace. This is not necessarily a "short" signal. Instead, it can be used as a signal to sell further into strength or avoid initiating new/additional entries.
ATR% multiples from the 50-MA can also be used as a tool for monitoring market indices, assessing technical headwinds versus tailwinds, and determining whether to take on risk or hold positions and wait.
This indicator can show the real-time ATR% multiple from the 50-MA as well as historical data. As shown in the chart above, SPY usually pulls back at over a 5X ATR% multiple in its history, so new exposures can be avoided at that time.
There are five horizontal lines in this indicator, with values of 0, 4, 6, 8, and 10. These five lines can be hidden, and their colors and line widths can be customized. When the ATR% multiple drops below zero, the line's color turns red.
Visual ATR StopThis indicator uses the Average True Range (ATR) to display a visual range for stop placement. Two multiplier values (example, 1 and 3) can be set to create a filled area below the price. This area represents the range between the two ATR levels, adjusted by subtracting the current price, providing a simple way to visualize stop-loss placement based on volatility.
The indicator is customizable; for example, negative values can place the area above the price for short positions. The filled color can also be removed, which allows precise levels to be marked above and below.
Precision Trading Strategy: Golden EdgeThe PTS: Golden Edge strategy is designed for scalping Gold (XAU/USD) on lower timeframes, such as the 1-minute chart. It captures high-probability trade setups by aligning with strong trends and momentum, while filtering out low-quality trades during consolidation or low-volatility periods.
The strategy uses a combination of technical indicators to identify optimal entry points:
1. Exponential Moving Averages (EMAs): A fast EMA (3-period) and a slow EMA (33-period) are used to detect short-term trend reversals via crossover signals.
2. Hull Moving Average (HMA): A 66-period HMA acts as a higher-timeframe trend filter to ensure trades align with the overall market direction.
3. Relative Strength Index (RSI): A 12-period RSI identifies momentum. The strategy requires RSI > 55 for long trades and RSI < 45 for short trades, ensuring entries are backed by strong buying or selling pressure.
4. Average True Range (ATR): A 14-period ATR ensures trades occur only during volatile conditions, avoiding choppy or low-movement markets.
By combining these tools, the PTS: Golden Edge strategy creates a precise framework for scalping and offers a systematic approach to capitalize on Gold’s price movements efficiently.
Adaptive Supertrend with Dynamic Optimization [EdgeTerminal]The Enhanced Adaptive Supertrend represents a significant evolution of the traditional Supertrend indicator, incorporating advanced mathematical optimization, dynamic volatility adjustment, intelligent signal filtering, reduced noise and false positives.
Key Features
Dynamic volatility-adjusted bands
Self-optimizing multiplier
Intelligent signal filtering system
Cooldown period to prevent signal clustering
Clear buy/sell signals with optimal positioning
Smooth trend visualization
RSI and MACD integration for confirmation
Performance-based optimization
Dynamic Band Calculation
Dynamic Band Calculation automatically adapts to market volatility, generates wider bands in volatile periods, reducing false signals. It also generates tighter bands in stable periods, capturing smaller moves and smooth transitions between different volatility regimes.
RSI Integration
The RSI and MACD play multiple crucial roles in the Adaptive Supertrend.
It first helps with momentum factor calculation. This dynamically adjusts band width based on momentum conditions. When the RSI is oversold, bands widen by 20% to prevent false signals during strong downtrends and provide more room for price movements in extreme conditions.
When the RSI is overbought, brands tighten by 20% and they become more sensitive to potential reversals to help catch trend changes earlier.
This reduces false signals in strong trends, helps detect potential reversals earlier than the usual, create adaptive band width based on market conditions and finally, better protection against whipsaws.
MACD Integration
The MACD in this supertrend indicator serves as a trend confirmation tool. The idea is to use MACD crossovers to confirm trend changes to reduce false trend change signals and enhance the signal quality.
For this to become a signal, MACD crossovers must align with price movement to help filter out weak or false signals, which acts as an additional layer of trend confirmation.
Additionally, MACD line position relative to signal line indicates trend strength, helps maintain positions in strong trends and assists in early detection of trend weakening.
Momentum Integration
Momentum Integration prevents false signals in extreme conditions, It adjusts dynamic bands based on market momentum, improves trend confirmation in strong moves and reduces whipsaws during consolidations.
Improved signals
There are a few systems to generate better signals, allowing for generally faster signals compared to original supertrend, such as:
Enforced cooldown period between signals
Prevents signal clustering
Clearer entry/exit points
Reduced false signals during choppy markets
Performance Optimization
This script implements a Sharpe ratio-inspired optimization algorithm to balance returns against risk, penalize large drawdowns, adapt parameters in real-time and improve risk-adjusted performance
Parameter Settings
ATR Period: 10 (default) - adjust based on timeframe
Initial Multiplier: 3.0 (default) - will self-optimize
Optimization Period: 50 (default) - longer periods for more stability
Smoothing Period: 3 (default) - adjust for signal smoothness
Best Practices
Use on multiple timeframes for confirmation
Allow the optimization process to run for at least 50 bars
Monitor the adaptive multiplier for trend strength indication
Consider RSI and MACD alignment for stronger signals
