ADX / Connectable [Azullian]
Streamline your strategy with the ADX indicator. Precisely analyze market strength and direction, integrating these insights for more adaptable trading decisions.
This connectable ADX indicator is part of an indicator system designed to help test, visualize and build strategy configurations without coding. Like all connectable indicators , it interacts through the TradingView input source, which serves as a signal connector to link indicators to each other. All connectable indicators send signal weight to the next node in the system until it reaches either a connectable signal monitor, signal filter and/or strategy.
█ UNIFORM SETTINGS AND A WAY OF WORK
Although connectable indicators may have specific weight scoring conditions, they all aim to follow a standardized general approach to weight scoring settings, as outlined below.
■ Connectable indicators - Settings
• 🗲 Energy: Energy applies an ATR multiplier to the plotted shapes on the chart. A higher value plots shapes farther away from the candle, enhancing visibility.
• ☼ Brightness: Brightness determines the opacity of the shape plotted on the chart, aiding visibility. Indicator weight also influences opacity.
• → Input: Use the input setting to specify a data source for the indicator. Here you can connect the indicator to other indicators.
• ⌥ Flow: Determine where you want to receive signals from:
○ Both: Weights from this indicator and the connected indicator will apply
○ Indicator only: Only weights from this indicator will apply
○ Input only: Only weights from the connected indicator will apply
• ⥅ Weight multiplier: Multiply all weights in the entire indicator by a given factor, useful for quickly testing different indicators in a granular setup.
• ⥇ Threshold: Set a threshold to indicate the minimum amount of weight it should receive to pass it through to the next indicator.
• ⥱ Limiter: Set a hard limit to the maximum amount of weight that can be fed through the indicator.
■ Connectable indicators - Weight scoring settings
▢ Weight scoring conditions
• SM – Signal mode: Enable specific conditions for weight scoring
○ All: All signals will be scored.
○ Entries only: Only entries will score
○ Exits only: Only exits will score.
○ Entries & exits: Both entries and exits will score.
○ Zone: Continuous scoring for each candle within the zone.
• SP – Signal period: Defines a range of candles within which a signal can score.
• SC - Signal count: Specifies the number of bars to retrospectively examine and score.
○ Single: Score for a single occurrence
○ All occurrences: Score for all occurrences
○ Single + Threshold: Score for single occurrences within the signal period (SP)
○ Every + Threshold: Score for all occurrences within the signal period (SP)
▢ Weight scoring direction
• ES: Enter Short weight
• XL: Exit long weight
• EL: Enter Long weight
• XS: Exit Short weight
▢ Weight scoring values
• Weights can hold either positive or negative scores. Positive weights enhance a particular trading direction, while negative weights diminish it.
█ ADX - INDICATOR SETTINGS
■ Main settings
• Enable/Disable Indicator: Toggle the entire indicator on or off.
• S - Source: Choose an alternative data source for the ADX calculation.
• T - Timeframe: Select an alternative timeframe for the ADX calculation.
• SM - Smoothing: Smooth the length averages.
• LE - DI Length: Determine the DI: Directional indicator length.
• TH - Trend threshold: Specify the level the ADX has to cross
• EM - Entry signal mode: Determine entry mode
○ DI: Use only DI+ and DI- crossings
○ DI + ADX: Use DI with increasing ADX
○ DI + ADX + Invert: Use DI with increasing ADX and DI with decreasing ADX
• XM - Exit signal mode: Determine exit mode
○ DI: Use DI crossing to exit
○ ADX: Use decreasing ADX to signal exit
■ Scoring functionality
• The ADX scores long entries when the ADX crosses the TH: Trend threshold and +DM is greater than -DM
• The ADX scores long exits when the ADX falls back below the TH: Trend threshold and +DM is greater than -DM
• The ADX scores long zones the entire time the ADX is above the TH: Trend threshold and +DM is greater than -DM
• The ADX scores short entries when the ADX crosses the TH: Trend threshold and +DM is smaller than -DM
• The ADX scores short exits when the ADX falls back below the TH: Trend threshold and +DM is smaller than -DM
• The ADX scores short zones the entire time the ADX is above the TH: Trend threshold and +DM is smaller than -DM
█ PLOTTING
• Standard: Symbols (EL, XS, ES, XL) appear relative to candles based on set conditions. Their opacity and position vary with weight.
• Conditional Settings: A larger icon appears if global conditions are met. For instance, with a Threshold(⥇) of 12, Signal Period (SP) of 3, and Scoring Condition (SC) set to "EVERY", an ADX signaling over two times in 3 candles (scoring 6 each) triggers a larger icon.
█ USAGE OF CONNECTABLE INDICATORS
■ Connectable chaining mechanism
Connectable indicators can be connected directly to the signal monitor, signal filter or strategy , or they can be daisy chained to each other while the last indicator in the chain connects to the signal monitor, signal filter or strategy. When using a signal filter you can chain the filter to the strategy input to make your chain complete.
• Direct chaining: Connect an indicator directly to the signal monitor, signal filter or strategy through the provided inputs (→).
• Daisy chaining: Connect indicators using the indicator input (→). The first in a daisy chain should have a flow (⌥) set to 'Indicator only'. Subsequent indicators use 'Both' to pass the previous weight. The final indicator connects to the signal monitor, signal filter and/or strategy.
■ Set up this indicator with a signal filter and strategy
The indicator provides visual cues based on signal conditions. However, its weight system is best utilized when paired with a connectable signal filter, signal monitor, and/or strategy .
Let's connect the ADX to a connectable signal filter and a strategy :
1. Load all relevant indicators
• Load ADX / Connectable
• Load Signal filter / Connectable
• Load Strategy / Connectable
2. Signal Filter: Connect the ADX to the Signal Filter
• Open the signal filter settings
• Choose one of the three input dropdowns (1→, 2→, 3→) and choose : ADX / Connectable: Signal Connector
• Toggle the enable box before the connected input to enable the incoming signal
3. Signal Filter: Update the filter signals settings if needed
• The default settings of the filter enable EL (Enter Long), XL (Exit Long), ES (Enter Short) and XS (Exit Short).
4. Signal Filter: Update the weight threshold settings if needed
• All connectable indicators load by default with a score of 6 for each direction (EL, XL, ES, XS)
• By default, weight threshold (TH) is set at 5. This allows each occurrence to score, as the default score in each connectable indicator is 1 point above the threshold. Adjust to your liking.
5. Strategy: Connect the strategy to the signal filter in the strategy settings
• Select a strategy input → and select the Signal filter: Signal connector
6. Strategy: Enable filter compatible directions
• Set the signal mode of the strategy to a compatible direction with the signal filter.
Now that everything is connected, you'll notice green spikes in the signal filter representing long signals, and red spikes indicating short signals. Trades will also appear on the chart, complemented by a performance overview. Your journey is just beginning: delve into different scoring mechanisms, merge diverse connectable indicators, and craft unique chains. Instantly test your results and discover the potential of your configurations. Dive deep and enjoy the process!

█ COMPATIBLE INDICATORS
Each indicator that incorporates our open-source 'azLibConnector' library and adheres to our conventions can be effortlessly integrated and used as detailed above.
For clarity and recognition within the TradingView platform, we append the suffix ' / Connectable' to every compatible indicator.
█ COMMON MISTAKES, CLARIFICATIONS AND TIPS
• Removing an indicator from a chain: Deleting a linked indicator and confirming the "remove study tree" alert will also remove all underlying indicators in the object tree. Before removing one, disconnect the adjacent indicators and move it to the object stack's bottom.
• Point systems: The azLibConnector provides 500 points for each direction (EL: Enter long, XL: Exit long, ES: Enter short, XS: Exit short) Remember this cap when devising a point structure.
• Flow misconfiguration: In daisy chains the first indicator should always have a flow (⌥) setting of 'indicator only' while other indicator should have a flow (⌥) setting of 'both'.
• Hide attributes: As connectable indicators send through quite some information you'll notice all the arguments are taking up some screenwidth and cause some visual clutter. You can disable arguments in Chart Settings / Status line.
• Layout and abbreviations: To maintain a consistent structure, we use abbreviations for each input. While this may initially seem complex, you'll quickly become familiar with them. Each abbreviation is also explained in the inline tooltips.
• Inputs: Connecting a connectable indicator directly to the strategy delivers the raw signal without a weight threshold, meaning every signal will trigger a trade.

平均趨向指標(ADX)
CulturaTrading IndicadorThe CULTURATRADING INDICATOR refines trading signals by integrating advanced analysis techniques across RSI, MACD, and ADX indicators. Here's a deep dive into its functionalities:
RSI Analysis:
Buying Signal Identification: The RSI component is calibrated not just to flag potential reversal points but to identify strong momentum. An RSI exceeding 60 is not merely an overbought signal; it indicates a robust buying momentum when it turns blue, aligning with CULTURATRADING STRATEGY's criteria for a potential long position.
Level 55 Significance: This level acts as a transitional threshold. When the RSI retreats below this point, it suggests a weakening momentum, prompting a reassessment of open positions.
Oversold Condition & Action: An RSI dipping below 40 signals an oversold condition, turning red, and aligning with a potential for a next long signal. staying alert when RSI stay over 40 level again and over on RSI Moving Average Following the idea CULTURATRADING STRATEGY.
Moving Average on RSI (MA RSI):
The inclusion of a Moving Average on the RSI serves as a trend filter. When the RSI is above the MA RSI, it underscores the strength of the current trend; conversely, if the RSI falls below the MA RSI, it calls for close all RSI long trade.
Volatility Histogram:
Color Coding & Market Response: The histogram changes colors based on market volatility and trend strength. Blue indicates a bullish trend continuation, where traders might consider entering long or holding positions. Rose suggests a market shift where traders should be vigilant, potentially taking profits from long or opening shorts positions. Grey denotes low volatility, signaling a period of market indecision where entering new trades may carry higher risk. staying out
Stop-Loss Placement: The histogram assists in identifying optimal stop-loss levels, providing visual cues for setting them just beyond the recent volatility extremes to protect against market whipsaws.
ADX Trend Strength Layer:
This layer offers a visual representation of the trend's strength. A rising ADX above the 25 level with a slope on the MACD line indicates a strong trend and defining directionality to trade (long if it close blue or short if its close rose), reinforcing the confidence in following the trend.
Usage & Importance:
While the CULTURATRADING STRATEGY provides a robust framework for trade execution, the CULTURATRADING INDICATOR is crucial for visualizing and confirming the signals it generates. It simplifies the complex interplay of various technical signals into a coherent visual format, aiding traders in making informed decisions.
The combination of RSI, MA RSI, and the volatility histogram offers a tri-layered approach to market analysis, enabling traders to discern between strong trends, pullbacks, and consolidations.
By integrating these elements, the CULTURATRADING INDICATOR serves as an indispensable tool for traders utilizing the CULTURATRADING STRATEGY, providing clarity and enhancing decision-making efficacy.

Scalper's Volatility Filter [QuantraSystems]Scalpers Volatility Filter
Introduction
The 𝒮𝒸𝒶𝓁𝓅𝑒𝓇'𝓈 𝒱𝑜𝓁𝒶𝓉𝒾𝓁𝒾𝓉𝓎 𝐹𝒾𝓁𝓉𝑒𝓇 (𝒮𝒱𝐹) is a sophisticated technical indicator, designed to increase the profitability of lower timeframe trading.
Due to the inherent decrease in the signal-to-noise ratio when trading on lower timeframes, it is critical to develop analysis methods to inform traders of the optimal market periods to trade - and more importantly, when you shouldn’t trade.
The 𝒮𝒱𝐹 uses a blend of volatility and momentum measurements, to signal the dominant market condition - trending or ranging.
Legend
The 𝒮𝒱𝐹 consists of a signal line that moves above and below a central zero line, serving as the indication of market regime.
When the signal line is positioned above zero, it indicates a period of elevated volatility. These periods are more profitable for trading, as an asset will experience larger price swings, and by design, trend-following indicators will give less false signals.
Conversely, when the signal line moves below zero, a low volatility or mean-reverting market regime dominates.
This distinction is critical for traders in order to align strategies with the prevailing market behaviors - leveraging trends in volatile markets and exercising caution or implementing mean-reversion systems in periods of lower volatility.
Case Study
Here we can see the indicator's unique edge in action.
Out of the four potential long entries seen on the chart - displayed via bar coloring, two would result in losses.
However, with the power of the 𝒮𝒱𝐹 a trader can effectively filter false signals by only entering momentum-trades when the signal line is above zero.
In this small sample of four trades, the 𝒮𝒱𝐹 increased the win rate from 50% to 100%
Methodology
The methodology behind the 𝒮𝒱𝐹 is based upon three components:
By calculating and contrasting two ATR’s, the immediate market momentum relative to the broader, established trend is calculated. The original method for this can be credited to the user @xinolia
A modified and smoothed ADX indicator is calculated to further assess the strength and sustainability of trends.
The ‘Linear Regression Dispersion’ measures price deviations from a fitted regression line, adding further confluence to the signals representation of market conditions.
Together, these components synthesize a robust, balanced view of market conditions, enabling traders to help align strategies with the prevailing market environment, in order to potentially increase expected value and win rates.
RSI/MFI Selling Sentiment IndexPsychological Sales Index (Psychological Sales Index)
Fundamental Indicators of Market Sentiment: The Importance of MFI and RSI
The two fundamental indicators that best reflect market sentiment are Money Flow Index (MFI) and Relative Strength Index (RSI). MFI is an indicator of the flow of funds in a market by combining price and volume, which is used to determine whether a stock is over-bought or over-selling. RSI is an indicator of the overheating of the market by measuring the rise and fall of prices, which is applied to the analysis of the relative strength of stock prices. These two indicators allow a quantitative assessment of the market's buying and selling pressure, which provides important information to understand the psychological state of market participants.
Using timing and fundamental metrics
In order to grasp the effective timing of the sale, in-depth consideration was needed on how to use basic indicators. MFI and RSI represent the buying and selling pressures of the market, respectively, but there is a limit to reflecting the overall trend of the market alone. As a result, a study on how to capture more accurate selling points was conducted by comprehensively considering technical analysis along with psychological factors of the market.
The importance of ADX integration and weighting
The "Average Regional Index (ADX)" was missing in the early version. ADX is an indicator of the strength of a trend, and has experienced a problem of less accuracy in selling sentiment indicators, especially in the upward trend. To address this, we incorporated ADX and adopted a method of adjusting the weights of MFI and RSI according to the values of ADX. A high ADX value implies the existence of a strong trend, in which case it is appropriate to reduce the influence of MFI and RSI to give more importance to the strength of the trend. Conversely, a low ADX value increases the influence of MFI and RSI, putting more weight on the psychological elements of the market.
How to use and interpret
The user can adjust several parameters. Key inputs include 'Length', 'Overbought Threshold', 'DI Length', and 'ADX Smoothing'. These parameters are used to set the calculation period, overselling threshold, DI length, and ADX smoothing period of the indicator, respectively. The script calculates the psychological selling index based on MFI, RSI, and ADX. The calculated index is normalized to values between 0 and 100 and is displayed in the graph. Values above 'Overbought Threshold' indicate an overselling state, which can be interpreted as a potential selling signal. This index allows investors to comprehensively evaluate the psychological state of the market and the strength of trends, which can be used to make more accurate selling decisions.
ADX Speed DerivativeThe ADX Speed Derivative (ADXSD) is a cutting-edge trading indicator meticulously crafted for trend analysis. By harnessing the power of the Average Rate Of Change (AROC) method applied to the first and second derivatives (pictured in white and purple, respectively) of the ADX oscillator, this indicator transcends conventional tools, offering traders unparalleled insights into market dynamics.
Key Features and Analysis Capabilities:
The ADXSD stands out with its ability to detect shifts in market trend directions, precisely quantify the speed and intensity of those transitions, and gauge the weakening or strengthening of prevailing trends. This comprehensive toolkit is designed for traders who demand accuracy and nuance in their technical analysis.
AROC Differentiation:
Unlike traditional ADX-based indicators, the ADXSD incorporates the AROC method, offering a nuanced perspective on trend acceleration or deceleration. The first derivative provides insight into the simplest rate of change, while the second derivative unveils the acceleration or deceleration of the trend, empowering traders with a deeper understanding of market dynamics.
Signal Precision:
This indicator excels at pinpointing potential trend reversals and transitions. Utilizing AROC on the ADX oscillator, it generates precise signals marked on the chart, giving traders timely and actionable information to make informed decisions.
Customization and Adaptability:
The ADXSD offers a range of customization options to cater to diverse trading strategies. Traders can adjust the lookback parameters to align with their risk tolerance and preferences, ensuring a personalized and adaptive approach to technical analysis.
Trend Visualization:
Incorporating a visual approach, this indicator enhances the interpretation of market trends. Traders can quickly identify shifts in trend strength and direction by observing midline crossovers, providing a visual guide for strategic decision-making.
Comprehensive Analysis:
The ADXSD serves as a comprehensive tool for traders seeking in-depth insights into market trends. It complements existing technical indicators, offering a holistic approach to market analysis.
Easy To Trade indicatorAbstract
This script evaluates how easy for traders to trade.
This script computes the level that the gains were distributed in many trading days.
We can use this indicator to decide the instruments and the time we trade.
Introduction
Why we think the trading markets are boring?
It is because most of the gains were concentrated in a few trading days.
We look for instruments we can buy at support and sell at resistance frequently and repeatedly.
However, it does not happen usually because it is difficult to find sellers sell at support and buyers buy at resistance.
This script is a method to measure if an instrument is difficult to trade.
If most of the gains were concentrated in a few trading days, this script says it is difficult to trade.
If gains were distributed in many trading days and we can buy low and sell high repeatedly, this script says it is easy to trade.
Therefore, this script measure how difficult for us to trade by the ratio between the area of value and the total gain.
How it works
1. Determine the instruments and time frames we are interested in.
2. Determine how many days this script evaluate the result. This number may depend on how many days from you buy in to you sell out.
3. If the instrument you choose is easy to trade, this script reports higher values.
4. If the instrument is long term bullish, the number "easy to invest" is usually higher than the number "easy to short" .
5. We can consider trade instruments which are easier to trade than others.
6. We can consider wait until the period that it is difficult to trade has past or keep believing that some instruments are easier to trade than others.
Parameters
x_src = The price for each trading day this script use. It may be open , high , low , close or their combination.
x_is_exp = Whether this script evaluate the price movement in exponential or logarithm. You are advised to answer yes if the price changes drastically.
x_period = How many days this script evaluate the result.
Conclusion
With this indicator , we have data to explain how easy or difficult an instrument is for traders . In other words , if we hear some people say the trading markets are boring or difficult for traders , we can use this indicator to verify how accurate their comments are.
With this explainable analysis , we have more knowledge about which instruments and which sessions are relative easy for us to buy low and sell high repeatedly and frequently , we can have better proceeding than buy and hold simply.
ADX Trend Confirmer [Honestcowboy]The ADX Trend Confirmer aims to give traders or algorithms a way to confirm a trend before entering a trade.
While the default for ADX is a smoothing factor of 14 and a length of 14 to measure directional strength. In my experience this is a lagging indicator and not the best for confirming if the market is trending.
🟢 What are the methods used for confirming trend in this indicator?
ADX above x number : By default we use an ADX length of 3 and it's value needs to be above 50.
ADX sloping up ? This will check if the ADX value is higher than that of previous bar, this to confirm that trend is getting momentum and not slowing down.
close>open / close<open : This is to check in which direction the trend is going.
Mid Point : We use a mid-point between highest high and lowest low in a given period by default of 3 bars. Price needs to close above/below this point to confirm direction. We use previous bar mid-point so there is no repainting of the line.
Min bar ratio: How many percent of the bar is the body? A high amount of wicks but not a lot of body can mean indecision (no trend). This to ensure entries are only after a convincing bar.

This is not a strategy on it's own but a building block to add to your analysis.
TTP SuperTrend ADXThis indicator uses the strength of the trend from ADX to decide how the SuperTrend (ST) should behave.
Motivation
ST is a great trend following indicator but it's not capable of adapting to the trend strength.
The ADX, Average Directional Index measures the strength of the trend and can be use to dynamically tweak the ST factor so that it's sensitivity can adapt to the trend strength.
Implementation
The indicator calculates a normalised value of the ADX based on the data available in the chart.
Based on these values ST will use different factors to increase or reduce the factor use by ST: expansion or compression.
ST expansion vs compression
Expanding the ST would mean that the stronger a trends get the ST factor will grow causing it to distance further from the price delaying the next ST trend flip.
Compressing the ST would mean that the stronger a trends get the ST factor will shrink causing it to get closer to the price speeding up the next ST trend flip.
Features
- Alerts for trend flip
- Alerts for trend status
- Backtestable stream
- SuperTrend color gets more intense with the strength of the trend
Support Resistance BreakthroughThe Support Resistance Breakthrough (SRB) is a comprehensive technical indicator that aims to evaluate market strength and detect potential breakout opportunities. It integrates the following elements:
ADX (Average Directional Index): Helps measure the overall trend strength. You can adjust both the ADX length and smoothing length.
ATR (Average True Range): Provides a measure of market volatility.
RSI (Relative Strength Index): Measures the momentum and helps identify overbought or oversold conditions.
Weighting Scheme: The weighting scheme adds or subtracts a fraction of the ROC of RSI, modulated by ATR and ADX. The weighting percentage can be customized.
Normalization Option: Allows the user to plot normalized values, scaling them between 0 and 100.
Horizontal Lines: Useful reference lines at 0, 50, and 100, displayed when normalization is used.
Interpretation: When the indicator is above the 0 line (or 50 when normalized), there's a high chance of breaking through resistance. Conversely, when it's below the 0 line, there's a high chance of breaking through support. Together with a momentum indicator, such as RSI and/or Stochastic RSI, this indicator functions excellently.
The combination of these elements makes the SRB an adaptable tool for various trading strategies. It can help identify potential breakout or breakdown areas and gauge the underlying strength of the market.
Compatibility with Adjustable Fibonacci Retracement Indicator: Together with the SRB indicator, the AFIBR can make it easier to determine the likelihood of breaking through support or resistance.
Directional Movement Index FLEXA common problem experienced by short term traders using DMI/ADX is that the session breaks results in carry-over effects from the prior session. For example, a large gap up would result in a positive DMI, even though momentum is clearly negative. Note the extremely different results in the morning session, when the gap is reversed.
The DMI-FLEX algoritm resets the +DI and -DI values to the prior session ending midpoint, so that new momentum can be observed from the indicator. (Note for Pinescript coders: rma function does not accept series int, thus the explicit pine_rma function)
DMI-FLEX has the added feature that the ADX value, instead of a separate line, is shown as shading between the +DI and -DI lines, and the color itself is determined by whether +DI is above -DI for a bullish color, or -DI is above +DI for a bearish color.
DMI Flex also gives you the flexibility of inverse colors, in case your chart has inverted scale.
Summary and How to use:
1) Green when +DI is above -DI
2) Red when -DI is above +DI
3) Deeper shading represents a higher ADX value.
ADXcellenceThis advanced trading indicator, inspired by Dr. Charles B. Schaap's book "ADXcellence: Power Trend Strategies", leverages the principles of the Average Directional Index (ADX) to help traders identify and exploit trending conditions in the market.
The ADXcellence Indicator uses multiple levels of analysis to evaluate the strength and direction of trends.
In addition to the classic ADX+DMI input settings, these features are included:
ADX Slope Signal: This parameter, controls the sensitivity of the ADX slope, which will indicate when the trend strength is increasing or decreasing.
The indicator provides three trend levels: strong trend level, trending level, and low volatility level, which can be customized to suit various trading strategies.
The color gradients for the ADX, DI+, and DI- lines are designed to visually represent the trend strength from the low volatility level to the strong trend level. The indicator also uses a dynamic background color, highlighting the periods when the ADX is rising. The color will vary depending on the dominant DI.
The ADXcellence Indicator also offers a unique feature of dynamically adjusting the fill between DI+ and DI-, with the color and fill intensity changing based on the relative value of the two.
This indicator is a powerful tool for traders who use trend-following strategies and is best used in conjunction with other technical analysis tools to confirm signals and avoid potential false signals.
Remember, no indicator is perfect and every trading strategy should include risk management and proper due diligence.
Enjoy :)
AIR Vortex ADXThis project started as an effort to improve the user interface of the hybrid indicator ADX of Vortex, which is, as per the name, a blend of ADX and Vortex Indicator. Plotting both indicators on the same polarity and normalising the vortex, a better interpretation of the interaction between the two is possible, and trend becomes apparent.
Basically, the Vortex provides the bright punch and ADX the continuation of the trend and momentum.
A range mixer has been added to the vortex, comprising both true and interpercentile ranges (see my previous script for a desrciption of interpercentile range). Users can activate and add amounts of each as they see fit.
Finally, there is an RSI filter, the idea of which is to filter out ranging (flat) markets, where no distinct direction is yet emerging.

Chop and Trend Index (CTI)The Chop and Trend Index (CTI) is a unique indicator that provides a different perspective on market conditions compared to traditional oscillators. It is designed to identify periods of market chop and strong trends, and it does so by combining two key components: the number of halfback taps and the strength of the trend.
The CTI is calculated by first determining the number of halfback taps over a user-defined length of time. A halfback tap occurs when the high or low of a bar reaches the midpoint (halfback level) of the previous bar. This is a measure of market chop: the more halfback taps, the choppier the market. The fewer halfback taps, the stronger the trend.
The strength of the trend is determined using the Average Directional Index (ADX), a popular trend strength indicator. The ADX is calculated based on the directional movement of the market, with higher values indicating stronger trends.
The CTI combines these two components by multiplying the normalized number of halfback taps by the ADX value. This results in an indicator that rises during strong trends with few halfback taps (either up or down) and falls during periods of market chop.
The CTI is not a directional indicator. Unlike the Relative Strength Index (RSI) or other oscillators, high values do not indicate overbought conditions, and low values do not indicate oversold conditions. Instead, high values indicate a strong trend (and possibly trend exhaustion), while low values indicate strong chop (and possibly an impending breakout in either direction).
The CTI can be used on any market and any timeframe, but it may be particularly useful on longer timeframes where periods of chop and trend are more pronounced.
The CTI includes several user inputs :
Length : This determines the number of bars over which the number of halfback taps is calculated. Increasing this value will make the CTI less sensitive to recent market conditions, while decreasing it will make the CTI more sensitive.
Normalization Window Length : This determines the number of bars over which the CTI is normalized. The CTI is normalized to a scale of 0 to 100 to make it easier to compare across different markets and timeframes.
Chop Threshold : This is the CTI value below which an alert will be triggered indicating a period of severe chop. This could signal an impending breakout and potential upcoming volatility.
Trend Exhaustion Threshold : This is the CTI value above which an alert will be triggered indicating potential trend exhaustion. This could signal a possible mean reversion.
The CTI also includes four colored threshold lines at 10, 25, 75, and 90. These thresholds can be used as a guide to identify periods of chop and trend. For example, CTI values below 10 or above 90 could indicate extreme conditions.
The CTI provides two alert conditions :
Low Threshold Crossed : This alert is triggered when the CTI falls below the user-defined Chop Threshold. This could signal a period of severe chop and the potential for upcoming volatility.
High Threshold Crossed : This alert is triggered when the CTI rises above the user-defined Trend Exhaustion Threshold. This could signal potential trend exhaustion and the possibility of mean reversion.
In conclusion, the CTI is a unique and versatile indicator that can provide valuable insights into market conditions. By identifying periods of chop and trend, it can help traders anticipate potential breakouts and reversals, and adjust their strategies accordingly.
Volatility Adjusted ADX (VADX)I sincerely wish to express my heartfelt gratitude to the vast community of coders on TradingView who have previously crafted various Average Directional Index (ADX) scripts. Their innovative approaches have laid a solid foundation, and I'm incredibly grateful for their inspiring work. In essence, their accomplishments have ignited the creative spark that led to the development of the Volatility Adjusted ADX (VADX) script.
VADX is not your run-of-the-mill script. It distinguishes itself from the myriad of ADX indicators on TradingView due to its unique volatility-adjustment mechanism. The primary purpose of this script is to augment the ADX's ability to quantify trend strength by introducing a layer of sensitivity to volatility shifts through the Average True Range (ATR). The interaction between these two crucial market measurements is where the novelty lies.
While the standard ADX does an excellent job of diagnosing the trend's vigor, its evaluation can sometimes be skewed when markets oscillate between periods of high and low volatility. Integrating the ATR – a reliable indicator of market volatility – into the ADX calculation mitigates this limitation, resulting in a more robust, volatility-adjusted trend strength measurement.
The specifics of the mathematical adjustment, our secret ingredient, will remain undisclosed for proprietary reasons. Nevertheless, I assure you that it creates a dynamic and balanced interplay between the trend strength and volatility, enabling a more nuanced understanding of the market.
The VADX script is user-friendly and includes three main inputs: ADX Smoothing, DI Length, and ATR Length. The ADX Smoothing parameter refines the ADX calculation, DI Length determines the period for the Directional Movement System calculation, and the ATR Length sets the period for the Average True Range.
Using this indicator is as easy as pie. After adding it to your chart, VADX will manifest itself as a separate panel beneath your price chart. When the VADX is escalating, it indicates that the strength of the trend is intensifying. Conversely, a declining VADX suggests diminishing trend strength. Two horizontal lines at the 25 and 75 levels provide a simple interpretation guide – they denote weak and strong trend phases, respectively.
This robust indicator is adaptable and can be effectively applied across multiple markets - from stocks, forex, and futures to cryptocurrencies. It also delivers valuable insights on any timeframe. However, as with any new indicator, I highly recommend initial testing and optimization to match your unique trading style and objectives.
To wrap up, the VADX indicator sets itself apart with its novel volatility adjustment, a feature not commonly found in existing TradingView scripts. This distinctive capability affords traders a more comprehensive view of the trend's strength by accounting for market volatility, adding an extra layer of depth to traditional ADX interpretation. I sincerely hope that this script enriches your trading arsenal and assists you in navigating the market with enhanced precision. As always, happy trading!
Dynamic Action Convergence DivergenceGoodbye MACD. Hello DACD.
The Dynamic Action Convergence Divergence (DACD) indicator presents a unique approach to understanding market trends and potential price reversals. This indicator is distinctly different from the currently published scripts in the following ways:
1. The DACD is rooted in the principles of the Average Directional Index (ADX) — especially as construed by the helpful work of @robertkowalski — but innovates by focusing on the divergence and convergence of the directional movement indicators (DI+ and DI-). This focus offers a more dynamic perspective on price action.
2. The DACD incorporates a histogram representation of the difference between DI+ and DI-, making it easier to visually interpret periods of divergence (potential reversal points) and convergence (potential continuation points).
3. It further enhances interpretation by applying a familiar color scheme to the histogram, allowing for an immediate visual understanding of the trend direction and its strength.
4. Unique to the DACD, it scales the difference between DI+ and DI-, applies a moving average, and then represents this as a line on the graph (referred to as "DI+ - DI-"). This line provides a smoothed view of the difference between DI+ and DI-, offering additional insight into the trend's characteristics.
5. Finally, a second moving average is calculated over the "DI+ - DI-" line, creating a signal line akin to the MACD's signal line. This signal line provides a benchmark to the "DI+ - DI-" line, indicating potential points of trend exhaustion and reversal.
The DACD can be used across various markets, including equities, commodities, forex, and cryptocurrencies, making it a versatile tool for any trader's arsenal. As with any technical indicator, the DACD should be used in conjunction with other indicators and forms of analysis to confirm signals and make more informed trading decisions.
The DACD excels in trending markets where it can highlight potential continuation and reversal points. However, during periods of consolidation or sideways moving markets, the DACD may provide less reliable signals. Therefore, it's essential to consider the overall market context when using the DACD.
The originality of the DACD lies in its novel application of the concepts from the ADX, its unique presentation style, and the additional moving averages applied to the difference between DI+ and DI-. These factors contribute to a unique trading indicator that stands apart from the crowd and offers new opportunities for technical analysis.

POSTSCRIPT: DACD VS MACD
Goodbye MACD. Hello DACD.
The MACD and DACD, while visually similar due to the familiar color scheme, are fundamentally different in their logic and data processing.
MACD is a trend-following momentum indicator, using the relationship between two moving averages of a security’s price. Its color scheme is well-recognized, assisting traders in quickly interpreting market momentum and potential trend shifts.
On the other hand, DACD, while maintaining a similar visual style for ease of adoption, is rooted in the principles of the Average Directional Index (ADX). It focuses on the divergence and convergence of the directional movement indicators (DI+ and DI-), providing a dynamic perspective on price action.
The familiar color scheme is purposefully used to facilitate easier transition for traders from MACD to DACD, despite their different underpinnings. This allows users to intuitively understand the new indicator while benefiting from its unique insight into market trends.

Adaptive Fusion ADX VortexIntroduction
The Adaptive Fusion ADX DI Vortex Indicator is a powerful tool designed to help traders identify trend strength and potential trend reversals in the market. This indicator uses a combination of technical analysis (TA) and mathematical concepts to provide accurate and reliable signals.
Features
The Adaptive Fusion ADX DI Vortex Indicator has several features that make it a powerful tool for traders. The Fusion Mode combines the Vortex Indicator and the ADX DI indicator to provide a more accurate picture of the market. The Hurst Exponent Filter helps to filter out choppy markets (inspired by balipour). Additionally, the indicator can be customized with various inputs and settings to suit individual trading strategies.
Signals
The enterLong signal is generated when the algorithm detects that it's a good time to buy a stock or other asset. This signal is based on certain conditions such as the values of technical indicators like ADX, Vortex, and Fusion. For example, if the ADX value is above a certain threshold and there is a crossover between the plus and minus lines of the ADX indicator, then the algorithm will generate an enterLong signal.
Similarly, the enterShort signal is generated when the algorithm detects that it's a good time to sell a stock or other asset. This signal is also based on certain conditions such as the values of technical indicators like ADX, Vortex, and Fusion. For example, if the ADX value is above a certain threshold and there is a crossunder between the plus and minus lines of the ADX indicator, then the algorithm will generate an enterShort signal.
The exitLong and exitShort signals are generated when the algorithm detects that it's a good time to close a long or short position, respectively. These signals are also based on certain conditions such as the values of technical indicators like ADX, Vortex, and Fusion. For example, if the ADX value crosses above a certain threshold or there is a crossover between the minus and plus lines of the ADX indicator, then the algorithm will generate an exitLong signal.
Usage
Traders can use this indicator in a variety of ways, depending on their trading strategy and style. Short-term traders may use it to identify short-term trends and potential trade opportunities, while long-term traders may use it to identify long-term trends and potential investment opportunities. The indicator can also be used to confirm other technical indicators or trading signals. Personally, I prefer to use it for short-term trades.
Strengths
One of the strengths of the Adaptive Fusion ADX DI Vortex Indicator is its accuracy and reliability. The indicator uses a combination of TA and mathematical concepts to provide accurate and reliable signals, helping traders make informed trading decisions. It is also versatile and can be used in a variety of trading strategies.
Weaknesses
While this indicator has many strengths, it also has some weaknesses. One of the weaknesses is that it can generate false signals in choppy or sideways markets. Additionally, the indicator may lag behind the market, making it less effective in fast-moving markets. That's a reason why I included the Hurst Exponent Filter and special smoothing.
Concepts
The Adaptive ADX DI Vortex Indicator with Fusion Mode and Hurst Filter is based on several key concepts. The Average Directional Index (ADX) is used to measure trend strength, while the Vortex Indicator is used to identify trend reversals. The Hurst Exponent is used to filter out noise and provide a more accurate picture of the market.
In conclusion, the Adaptive Fusion ADX DI Vortex Indicator is a versatile and powerful tool for traders. By combining technical analysis and mathematical concepts, this indicator provides accurate and reliable signals for identifying trend strength and potential trend reversals. While it has some weaknesses, its many strengths and features make it a valuable addition to any trader's toolbox.

GKD-V Jurik DMX [Loxx]Giga Kaleidoscope Jurik DMX is a Volatility/Volume module included in Loxx's "Giga Kaleidoscope Modularized Trading System".
█ Giga Kaleidoscope Modularized Trading System
What is Loxx's "Giga Kaleidoscope Modularized Trading System"?
The Giga Kaleidoscope Modularized Trading System is a trading system built on the philosophy of the NNFX (No Nonsense Forex) algorithmic trading.
What is an NNFX algorithmic trading strategy?
The NNFX algorithm is built on the principles of trend, momentum, and volatility. There are six core components in the NNFX trading algorithm:
1. Volatility - price volatility; e.g., Average True Range, True Range Double, Close-to-Close, etc.
2. Baseline - a moving average to identify price trend
3. Confirmation 1 - a technical indicator used to identify trends
4. Confirmation 2 - a technical indicator used to identify trends
5. Continuation - a technical indicator used to identify trends
6. Volatility/Volume - a technical indicator used to identify volatility/volume breakouts/breakdown
7. Exit - a technical indicator used to determine when a trend is exhausted
How does Loxx's GKD (Giga Kaleidoscope Modularized Trading System) implement the NNFX algorithm outlined above?
Loxx's GKD v1.0 system has five types of modules (indicators/strategies). These modules are:
1. GKD-BT - Backtesting module (Volatility, Number 1 in the NNFX algorithm)
2. GKD-B - Baseline module (Baseline and Volatility/Volume, Numbers 1 and 2 in the NNFX algorithm)
3. GKD-C - Confirmation 1/2 and Continuation module (Confirmation 1/2 and Continuation, Numbers 3, 4, and 5 in the NNFX algorithm)
4. GKD-V - Volatility/Volume module (Confirmation 1/2, Number 6 in the NNFX algorithm)
5. GKD-E - Exit module (Exit, Number 7 in the NNFX algorithm)
(additional module types will added in future releases)
Each module interacts with every module by passing data between modules. Data is passed between each module as described below:
GKD-B => GKD-V => GKD-C(1) => GKD-C(2) => GKD-C(Continuation) => GKD-E => GKD-BT
That is, the Baseline indicator passes its data to Volatility/Volume. The Volatility/Volume indicator passes its values to the Confirmation 1 indicator. The Confirmation 1 indicator passes its values to the Confirmation 2 indicator. The Confirmation 2 indicator passes its values to the Continuation indicator. The Continuation indicator passes its values to the Exit indicator, and finally, the Exit indicator passes its values to the Backtest strategy.
This chaining of indicators requires that each module conform to Loxx's GKD protocol, therefore allowing for the testing of every possible combination of technical indicators that make up the six components of the NNFX algorithm.
What does the application of the GKD trading system look like?
Example trading system:
Backtest: Strategy with 1-3 take profits, trailing stop loss, multiple types of PnL volatility, and 2 backtesting styles
Baseline: Hull Moving Average as shown on the chart above
Volatility/Volume: Jurik DMX as shown on the chart above
Confirmation 1: Arron as shown on the chart above
Confirmation 2: Williams Percent Range
Continuation: Fisher Transform
Exit: Rex Oscillator
Each GKD indicator is denoted with a module identifier of either: GKD-BT, GKD-B, GKD-C, GKD-V, or GKD-E. This allows traders to understand to which module each indicator belongs and where each indicator fits into the GKD protocol chain.
