Squeeze Momentum ProSQUEEZE MOMENTUM PRO - Enhanced Visual Dashboard
A modernized version of the TTM Squeeze Momentum indicator, designed for cleaner visual interpretation and faster decision-making.
═══════════════════════════════════════════
📊 WHAT IS THE SQUEEZE?
═══════════════════════════════════════════
The "squeeze" occurs when Bollinger Bands contract inside Keltner Channels, indicating extremely low volatility. This compression typically precedes explosive directional moves - the tighter the squeeze, the bigger the potential breakout.
John Carter's TTM Squeeze concept (from "Mastering the Trade") combines this volatility compression with momentum direction to identify high-probability setups.

DTCC RECAPS Dates 2020-2025This is a simple indicator which marks the RECAPS dates of the DTCC, during the periods of 2020 to 2025.
These dates have marked clear settlement squeezes in the past, such as GME's squeeze of January 2021.
------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
The Depository Trust & Clearing Corporation (DTCC) has published the 2025 schedule for its Reconfirmation and Re-pricing Service (RECAPS) through the National Securities Clearing Corporation (NSCC). RECAPS is a monthly process for comparing and re-pricing eligible equities, municipals, corporate bonds, and Unit Investment Trusts (UITs) that have aged two business days or more .
At its core, the Reconfirmation and Re-pricing Service (RECAPS) is a risk management tool used by the National Securities Clearing Corporation (NSCC), a subsidiary of the DTCC. Its primary purpose is to reduce the risks associated with aged, unsettled trades in the U.S. securities market .
When a trade is executed, it is sent to the NSCC for clearing and settlement. However, for various reasons, some trades may not settle on their scheduled date and become "aged." These unsettled trades create risk for both the trading parties and the clearinghouse (NSCC) because the value of the underlying securities can change over time. If a trade fails to settle and one of the parties defaults, the NSCC may have to step in to complete the transaction at the current market price, which could result in a loss.
RECAPS mitigates this risk by systematically re-pricing these aged, open trading obligations to the current market value. This process ensures that the financial obligations of the clearing members accurately reflect the present value of the securities, preventing the accumulation of significant, unmanaged market risk .
Detailed Mechanics: How Does it Work?
The RECAPS process revolves around two key dates you asked about: the RECAPS Date and the Settlement Date .
The RECAPS Date: On this day, the NSCC runs a process to identify all eligible trades that have remained unsettled for two business days or more. These "aged" trades are then re-priced to the current market value. This re-pricing is not just a simple recalculation; it generates new settlement instructions. The original, unsettled trade is effectively cancelled and replaced with a new one at the current market price. This is done through the NSCC's Obligation Warehouse.
The Settlement Date: This is typically the business day following the RECAPS date. On this date, the financial settlement of the re-priced trades occurs. The difference in value between the original trade price and the new, re-priced value is settled between the two trading parties. This "mark-to-market" adjustment is processed through the members' settlement accounts at the DTCC.
Essentially, the process ensures that any gains or losses due to price changes in the underlying security are realized and settled periodically, rather than being deferred until the trade is ultimately settled or cancelled.
Are These Dates Used to Check Margin Requirements?
Yes, indirectly, this process is closely tied to managing margin and collateral requirements for NSCC members. Here’s how:
The NSCC requires its members to post collateral to a clearing fund, which acts as a mutualized guarantee against defaults. The amount of collateral each member must provide is calculated based on their potential risk exposure to the clearinghouse.
By re-pricing aged trades to current market values through RECAPS, the NSCC gets a more accurate picture of each member's outstanding obligations and, therefore, their current risk profile. If a member has a large number of unsettled trades that have moved against them in value, the re-pricing will crystallize that loss, which will be settled the next day.
This regular re-pricing and settlement of aged trades prevent the build-up of large, unrealized losses that could increase a member's risk profile beyond what their posted collateral can cover. While RECAPS is not the only mechanism for calculating margin (the NSCC has a complex system for daily margin calls based on overall portfolio risk), it is a crucial component for managing the specific risk posed by aged, unsettled transactions. It ensures that the value of these obligations is kept current, which in turn helps ensure that collateral levels remain adequate.
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Future dates of 2025:
- November 12, 2025 (Wed)
- November 25, 2025 (Tue)
- December 11, 2025 (Thu)
- December 29, 2025 (Mon)
The dates for 2026 haven't been published yet at this time.
The RECAPS process is essentially the industry's way of retrying the settlement of all unresolved FTDs, netting outstanding obligations, and gradually forcing resolution (either delivery or buy-in). Monitoring RECAPS cycles is one way to track the lifecycle, accumulation, and eventual resolution (or persistence) of failures to deliver in the U.S. market.
The US Stock market has become a game of settlement dates and FTDs, therefore this can be useful to track.
No-Trade Zones UTC+7This indicator helps you visualize and backtest your preferred trading hours. For example, if you have a 9-to-5 job, you obviously can’t trade during that time — and when backtesting, you should avoid those hours too. It also marks weekends if you prefer not to trade on those days.
By highlighting no-trade periods directly on the chart, you can easily see when you shouldn’t be taking trades, without constantly checking the time or date by hovering over the chart. It makes backtesting smoother and more realistic for your personal schedule.
Session Streaks [LuxAlgo]The Session Streaks tool allows traders to identify whether a session is bullish or bearish on the chart. It also shows the current session streak, or the number of consecutive bullish or bearish sessions.
The tool features a dashboard with information about the session streaks of the underlying product on the chart.
🔶 USAGE
Analyzing session streaks is commonly used for market timing by studying the number of consecutive sessions over time and how long they last before the market changes direction.
We identify a bullish session as one in which the closing price is equal to or greater than the opening price, and a bearish session as one in which the closing price is below the opening price.
Each session is labeled according to its bias (bullish or bearish) and the number of consecutive sessions of the same type that conform the current streak.
🔹 Dashboard
The dashboard at the top shows information about the current session.
Under the "Streaks" header, historical information about session streaks is displayed, divided into bullish and bearish categories.
Number: Total number of streaks.
Median: The average duration of those streaks. We chose the median over the mean to avoid misrepresentation due to outliers.
Mode: The most common streak duration.
As the image shows, for this particular market, there are more bullish streaks than bearish ones. Bullish streaks have an average duration that is longer than that of bearish streaks, and both have the same most common streak duration.
If the current session is bullish and the median streak duration for bullish sessions is three, then we could consider scenarios in which the next two sessions are bullish.
🔶 DETAILS
🔹 Streaks On Larger Timeframes
On timeframes lower than or equal to Daily, the tool identifies each consecutive session, but this behavior changes on larger timeframes.
On timeframes larger than daily, the tool identifies the last session of each bar. Let's use the chart in the image as a reference.
At the top of the image, there is a daily chart where each session corresponds to each candle. One candle equals one day.
In the middle, we have a weekly chart where each session is the last session of each week, which is usually Friday for the Nasdaq 100 futures contract. The levels and labels displayed correspond to the last session within each candle, which is the last day of each week.
The levels and labels on the monthly chart correspond to the last session of each month, which is the last day of each month.
🔹 Gradient Style
Traders can choose between two different color gradients for the session background. Each gradient provides different information about price behavior within each session.
Horizontal: Green indicates prices at the top of the session range and red indicates prices at the bottom.
Vertical: Green indicates prices that are equal to or greater than the open price and red indicates prices that are below the open price of the session.
🔶 SETTINGS
🔹 Dashboard
Dashboard: Enable or disable the dashboard.
Position: Select the location of the dashboard.
Size: Select the dashboard size.
🔹 Style
Bullish: Select a color for bullish sessions.
Bearish: Select a color for bearish sessions.
Transparency: Select a transparency level from 100 to 0.
Gradient: Select a horizontal or vertical gradient.
Power RSI Segment Runner [CHE] Power RSI Segment Runner — Tracks RSI momentum across higher timeframe segments to detect directional switches for trend confirmation.
Summary
This indicator calculates a running Relative Strength Index adapted to segments defined by changes in a higher timeframe, such as daily closes, providing a smoothed view of momentum within each period. It distinguishes between completed segments, which fix the final RSI value, and ongoing ones, which update in real time with an exponential moving average filter. Directional switches between bullish and bearish momentum trigger visual alerts, including overlay lines and emojis, while a compact table displays current trend strength as a progress bar. This segmented approach reduces noise from intra-period fluctuations, offering clearer signals for trend persistence compared to standard RSI on lower timeframes.
Motivation: Why this design?
Standard RSI often generates erratic signals in choppy markets due to constant recalculation over fixed lookback periods, leading to false reversals that mislead traders during range-bound or volatile phases. By resetting the RSI accumulation at higher timeframe boundaries, this indicator aligns momentum assessment with broader market cycles, capturing sustained directional bias more reliably. It addresses the gap between short-term noise and long-term trends, helping users filter entries without over-relying on absolute overbought or oversold thresholds.
What’s different vs. standard approaches?
- Baseline Reference: Diverges from the classic Wilder RSI, which uses a fixed-length exponential moving average of gains and losses across all bars.
- Architecture Differences:
- Segments momentum resets at higher timeframe changes, isolating calculations per period instead of continuous history.
- Employs persistent sums for ups and downs within segments, with on-the-fly RSI derivation and EMA smoothing.
- Integrates switch detection logic that clears prior visuals on reversal, preventing clutter from outdated alerts.
- Adds overlay projections like horizontal price lines and dynamic percent change trackers for immediate trade context.
- Practical Effect: Charts show discrete RSI endpoints for past segments alongside a curved running trace, making momentum evolution visually intuitive. Switches appear as clean, extendable overlays, reducing alert fatigue and highlighting only confirmed directional shifts, which aids in avoiding whipsaws during minor pullbacks.
How it works (technical)
The indicator begins by detecting changes in the specified higher timeframe, such as a new daily bar, to define segment boundaries. At each boundary, it finalizes the prior segment's RSI by summing positive and negative price changes over that period and derives the value from the ratio of those sums, then applies an exponential moving average for smoothing. Within the active segment, it accumulates ongoing ups and downs from price changes relative to the source, recalculating the running RSI similarly and smoothing it with the same EMA length.
Points for the running RSI are collected into an array starting from the segment's onset, forming a curved polyline once sufficient bars accumulate. Comparisons between the running RSI and the last completed segment's value determine the current direction as long, short, or neutral, with switches triggering deletions of old visuals and creation of new ones: a label at the RSI pane, a vertical dashed line across the RSI range, an emoji positioned via ATR offset on the price chart, a solid horizontal line at the switch price, a dashed line tracking current close, and a midpoint label for percent change from the switch.
Initialization occurs on the first bar by resetting accumulators, and visualization gates behind a minimum bar count since the segment start to avoid early instability. The trend strength table builds vertically with filled cells proportional to the rounded RSI value, colored by direction. All drawing objects update or extend on subsequent bars to reflect live progress.
Parameter Guide
EMA Length — Controls the smoothing applied to the running RSI; higher values increase lag but reduce noise. Default: 10. Trade-offs: Shorter settings heighten sensitivity for fast markets but risk more false switches; longer ones suit trending conditions for stability.
Source — Selects the price data for change calculations, typically close for standard momentum. Default: close. Trade-offs: Open or high/low may emphasize gaps, altering segment intensity.
Segment Timeframe — Defines the higher timeframe for segment resets, like daily for intraday charts. Default: D. Trade-offs: Shorter frames create more frequent but shorter segments; longer ones align with major cycles but delay resets.
Overbought Level — Sets the upper threshold for potential overbought conditions (currently unused in visuals). Default: 70. Trade-offs: Adjust for asset volatility; higher values delay bearish warnings.
Oversold Level — Sets the lower threshold for potential oversold conditions (currently unused in visuals). Default: 30. Trade-offs: Lower values permit deeper dips before signaling bullish potential.
Show Completed Label — Toggles labels at segment ends displaying final RSI. Default: true. Trade-offs: Enables historical review but can crowd charts on dense timeframes.
Plot Running Segment — Enables the curved polyline for live RSI trace. Default: true. Trade-offs: Visualizes intra-segment flow; disable for cleaner panes.
Running RSI as Label — Displays current running RSI as a forward-projected label on the last bar. Default: false. Trade-offs: Useful for quick reads; may overlap in tight scales.
Show Switch Label — Activates RSI pane labels on directional switches. Default: true. Trade-offs: Provides context; omit to minimize pane clutter.
Show Switch Line (RSI) — Draws vertical dashed lines across the RSI range at switches. Default: true. Trade-offs: Marks reversal bars clearly; extends both ways for reference.
Show Solid Overlay Line — Projects a horizontal line from switch price forward. Default: true. Trade-offs: Acts as dynamic support/resistance; wider lines enhance visibility.
Show Dashed Overlay Line — Tracks a dashed line from switch to current close. Default: true. Trade-offs: Shows price deviation; thinner for subtlety.
Show Percent Change Label — Midpoint label tracking percent move from switch. Default: true. Trade-offs: Quantifies progress; centers dynamically.
Show Trend Strength Table — Displays right-side table with direction header and RSI bar. Default: true. Trade-offs: Instant strength gauge; fixed position avoids overlap.
Activate Visualization After N Bars — Delays signals until this many bars into a segment. Default: 3. Trade-offs: Filters immature readings; higher values miss early momentum.
Segment End Label — Color for completed RSI labels. Default: 7E57C2. Trade-offs: Purple tones for finality.
Running RSI — Color for polyline and running elements. Default: yellow. Trade-offs: Bright for live tracking.
Long — Color for bullish switch visuals. Default: green. Trade-offs: Standard for uptrends.
Short — Color for bearish switch visuals. Default: red. Trade-offs: Standard for downtrends.
Solid Line Width — Thickness of horizontal overlay line. Default: 2. Trade-offs: Bolder for emphasis on key levels.
Dashed Line Width — Thickness of tracking and vertical lines. Default: 1. Trade-offs: Finer to avoid dominance.
Reading & Interpretation
Completed segment RSIs appear as static points or labels in purple, indicating the fixed momentum at period close—values drifting toward the upper half suggest building strength, while lower half implies weakness. The yellow curved polyline traces the live smoothed RSI within the current segment, rising for accumulating gains and falling for losses. Directional labels and lines in green or red flag switches: green for running momentum exceeding the prior segment's, signaling potential uptrend continuation; red for the opposite.
The right table's header colors green for long, red for short, or gray for neutral/wait, with filled purple bars scaling from bottom (low RSI) to top (high), topped by the numeric value. Overlay elements project from switch bars: the solid green/red line as a price anchor, dashed tracker showing pullback extent, and percent label quantifying deviation—positive for alignment with direction, negative for counter-moves. Emojis (up arrow for long, down for short) float above/below price via ATR spacing for quick chart scans.
Practical Workflows & Combinations
- Trend Following: Enter long on green switch confirmation after a higher high in structure; filter with table strength above midpoint for conviction. Pair with volume surge for added weight.
- Exits/Stops: Trail stops to the solid overlay line on pullbacks; exit if percent change reverses beyond 2 percent against direction. Use wait bars to confirm without chasing.
- Multi-Asset/Multi-TF: Defaults suit forex/stocks on 1H-4H with daily segments; for crypto, shorten EMA to 5 for volatility. Scale segment TF to weekly for daily charts across indices.
- Combinations: Overlay on EMA clouds for confluence—switch aligning with cloud break strengthens signal. Add volatility filters like ATR bands to debounce in low-volume regimes.
Behavior, Constraints & Performance
Signals confirm on bar close within segments, with running polyline updating live but gated by minimum bars to prevent flicker. Higher timeframe changes may introduce minor repaints on timeframe switches, mitigated by relying on confirmed HTF closes rather than intrabar peeks. Resource limits cap at 500 labels/lines and 50 polylines, pruning old objects on switches to stay efficient; no explicit loops, but array growth ties to segment length—suitable for up to 500-bar histories without lag.
Known limits include delayed visualization in short segments and insensitivity to overbought/oversold levels, as thresholds are inputted but not actively visualized. Gaps in source data reset accumulators prematurely, potentially skewing early RSI.
Sensible Defaults & Quick Tuning
Start with EMA length 10, daily segments, and 3-bar wait for balanced responsiveness on hourly charts. For excessive switches in ranging markets, increase wait bars to 5 or EMA to 14 to dampen noise. If signals lag in trends, drop EMA to 5 and use 1H segments. For stable assets like indices, widen to weekly segments; tune colors for dark/light themes without altering logic.

Swing High/Low (Adaptive)Swing High/Low (Adaptive)
Overview
The Indicator is a pivot point detection tool that identifies swing highs and lows with invalidation tracking. The key differentiator of this indicator is its adaptive invalidation system . Most pivot indicators simply mark every detected pivot without considering whether subsequent price action has made earlier pivots less relevant.
How It Works
The indicator uses Pine Script's native ta.pivotlow() and ta.pivothigh() functions combined with custom logic to detect swing points. The adaptive algorithm evaluates each potential pivot against the following criteria:
For Low Pivots:
Confirms a new low pivot when it's the next expected pivot type in the swing sequence
If consecutive lows occur, only accepts a new low if it's lower than the previous low
Marks the previous low as invalidated when a stronger low is detected
For High Pivots:
Confirms a new high pivot when it's the next expected pivot type in the swing sequence
If consecutive highs occur, only accepts a new high if it's higher than the previous high
Marks the previous high as invalidated when a stronger high is detected
This approach ensures that the indicator maintains clean swing structure and automatically adjusts when price action creates stronger pivots, providing a more realistic view of support and resistance levels.
Settings
Pivot Settings:
Left Bars : Number of bars to the left required for pivot confirmation (default: 5)
Right Bars : Number of bars to the right required for pivot confirmation (default: 5)
Pivot Display Settings:
Toggle visibility for low and high pivots independently

ZigZag Settings:
Toggle ZigZag line display on/off
Separate colors for upward and downward price swings
Adjustable line width
Use Cases
1. Market Structure Analysis
Identify key swing points to understand the current market structure and trend direction. The adaptive invalidation feature ensures you're always looking at the most relevant pivots.
2. Support and Resistance Identification
Use confirmed swing highs and lows as potential support and resistance levels for entry and exit planning.
3. Trend Confirmation
The ZigZag visualization helps confirm trends by showing the sequence of higher highs and higher lows (uptrend) or lower highs and lower lows (downtrend).
Disclaimer
This indicator is designed as a technical analysis tool and should be used in conjunction with other forms of analysis and proper risk management. Past performance does not guarantee future results, and traders should thoroughly test any strategy before implementing it with real capital.

Renko ATR Trend + SMA Indicator by YCGH Capital🧭 Overview
The Renko ATR Trend + SMA Indicator is a trend-following tool designed for chart trading.
It combines Renko-style price movement logic (based on ATR) with a Simple Moving Average (SMA) filter to identify sustained bullish or bearish phases on any timeframe.
It plots a color-coded trend line directly on the price chart — green for bullish trends, red for bearish — and maintains a single active state (no repeated buy/sell signals) until the opposite condition appears.
⚙️ How It Works
1️⃣ Renko ATR Engine
Instead of using fixed box sizes like classic Renko charts, this indicator builds synthetic Renko movement based on ATR (Average True Range) of a chosen timeframe.
It pulls OHLC data from your selected Renko Source Timeframe (for example, 60-minute candles).
It calculates an ATR brick size — representing the minimum price move needed for a new Renko brick.
When price moves by at least one ATR in the opposite direction, it flips the trend.
This filters out small fluctuations and captures the underlying directional bias.
2️⃣ SMA Filter
A Simple Moving Average (SMA) acts as a trend confirmation filter.
Only when Renko direction aligns with the price relative to the SMA, a trend signal activates.
BUY → Renko uptrend + price above SMA
SELL → Renko downtrend + price below SMA
3️⃣ Stateful Signal Logic
Unlike typical indicators that spam multiple buy/sell shapes:
This version holds one persistent signal (Buy or Sell)
The state continues until an opposite signal is confirmed
No “continuation” arrows — clean and minimal trend visualization
🎨 Visuals
Element Meaning
🟩 Green Renko Line Active Bullish Trend
🟥 Red Renko Line Active Bearish Trend
⚪ Gray Line Neutral / Waiting phase
🟡 Yellow Line SMA (trend filter)
📍 Label (Buy Active / Sell Active) Displays the current market bias
🔧 Inputs
Input Description
Renko Source Timeframe The timeframe from which Renko data is calculated (e.g., 60 = 1h candles).
ATR Period Determines brick size sensitivity (lower = more responsive, higher = smoother).
SMA Length Moving Average length used as a directional filter.
💡 How Traders Use It
Trend Confirmation:
Use green/red Renko line to stay aligned with the dominant market move.
Entry Timing:
Enter trades when a new Renko direction is confirmed along with SMA alignment.
Exit or Reverse:
Exit long when a red line (Sell Active) appears, and vice versa.
Combine with Price Action:
Add support/resistance or volume analysis for confirmation.

The primary goal is not to time the exact market bottom, but to identify zones of significant pessimism or euphoria. Historically, periods of indiscriminate selling have represented high-probability entry points for long-term investors.
The dashboard consists of two parts:
1. The Favorability Gauge: A 12-segment gauge that moves from Red (Unfavorable) to Teal (Favorable).
2. The Summary Text: An optional text box (enabled in settings) that provides a plain-English summary of the current market breadth.

The Method: Market Breadth
This indicator is not based on the price of the index itself. Price-based indicators (like an RSI on the SPX) can be misleading. In a market-cap-weighted index, a few mega-cap stocks can hold the index price up while the vast majority of "average" stocks are already in a deep bear market.
This tool uses Market Breadth to measure the true, underlying health and participation of the entire market.
How It Works
1. Data Source: The indicator pulls the daily percentage of companies within the selected index (SPX or NDX) that are trading above their 200-day moving average. (Data tickers: S5TH for SPX, NDTH for NDX).
2. Smoothing: This raw data is volatile. To filter out daily noise and confirm a persistent trend, the indicator calculates a 5-day Simple Moving Average (SMA) of this percentage. This is the value used by the indicator.
3. Interpretation:
High Value (>= 50%): More than half of the stocks are above their long-term average. This signifies the market is "Overheated" or in a risk-on phase. The favorability for a new lump sum investment is considered Low.
Low Value (< 50%): Less than half of the stocks are above their long-term average. This signifies "Oversold" conditions or capitulation. These moments historically offer the best favorability for starting a new long-term investment.

How to Use the Indicator
1. The Favorability Gauge
The gauge is designed to be intuitive: Red means "Stop/Caution," and Teal means "Go/Opportunity."
Note: The gauge's logic is inverted from the data value to achieve this simplicity.
Red Zone (Left): UNFAVORABLE
This corresponds to a high percentage of stocks being above their 200d MA (>= 50%). The market is considered Overheated, and the favorability for a new lump sum investment is low.
Teal Zone (Right): FAVORABLE
This corresponds to a low percentage of stocks being above their 200d MA (< 50%). The market is considered Oversold, and the favorability for a new lump sum investment is high.
2. The Summary Text
When "Show Summary Text" is enabled in the settings, a box will appear at the top-center of your chart. This box provides a clear, data-driven summary, such as:
"Currently, only 22% of S&P 500 companies are above their 200-day MA. Market is Oversold."
The color of this text will automatically change to match the market state (Red for Overheated, Teal for Oversold), providing instant confirmation of the gauge's reading.

Settings
Market: Choose the index to analyze: SPX (S&P 500) or NDX (Nasdaq 100).
Gauge Position: Select where the gauge dashboard should appear on your chart (default is Bottom Right).
Show Summary Text: Toggle the descriptive text box on or off (default is On).

This indicator is a statistical and historical guide, not a financial advice or timing signal. It is designed to measure favorability based on past market behavior, not to provide certainty.
Extreme oversold conditions can persist, and markets can always go lower. This tool should be used as one component of a broader investment and risk-management framework. Past performance is not a guarantee of future results.

Holt Damped Forecast [CHE]A Friendly Note on These Pine Script Scripts
Hey there! Just wanted to share a quick, heartfelt heads-up: All these Pine Script examples come straight from my own self-study adventures as a total autodidact—think late nights tinkering and learning on my own. They're purely for educational vibes, helping me (and hopefully you!) get the hang of Pine Script basics, cool indicators, and building simple strategies.
That said, please know this isn't any kind of financial advice, investment nudge, or pro-level trading blueprint. I'd love for you to dive in with your own research, run those backtests like a champ, and maybe bounce ideas off a qualified expert before trying anything in a real trading setup. No guarantees here on performance or spot-on accuracy—trading's got its risks, and those are totally on each of us.
Let's keep it fun and educational—happy coding! 😊
Holt Damped Forecast — Damped trend forecasts with fan bands for uncertainty visualization and momentum integration
Summary
This indicator applies damped exponential smoothing to generate forward price forecasts, displaying them as probabilistic fan bands to highlight potential ranges rather than point estimates. It incorporates residual-based uncertainty to make projections more reliable in varying market conditions, reducing overconfidence in strong trends. Momentum from the trend component is shown in an optional label alongside signals, aiding quick assessment of direction and strength without relying on lagging oscillators.
Motivation: Why this design?
Standard exponential smoothing often extrapolates trends indefinitely, leading to unrealistic forecasts during mean reversion or weakening momentum. This design uses damping to gradually flatten long-term projections, better suiting real markets where trends fade. It addresses the need for visual uncertainty in forecasts, helping traders avoid entries based on overly optimistic point predictions.
What’s different vs. standard approaches?
- Reference baseline: Diverges from basic Holt's linear exponential smoothing, which assumes persistent trends without decay.
- Architecture differences:
- Adds damping to the trend extrapolation for finite-horizon realism.
- Builds fan bands from historical residuals for probabilistic ranges at multiple confidence levels.
- Integrates a dynamic label combining forecast details, scaled momentum, and directional signals.
- Applies tail background coloring to recent bars based on forecast direction for immediate visual cues.
- Practical effect: Charts show converging forecast bands over time, emphasizing shorter horizons where accuracy is higher. This visibly tempers aggressive projections in trends, making it easier to spot when uncertainty widens, which signals potential reversals or consolidation.
How it works (technical)
The indicator maintains two persistent components: a level tracking the current price baseline and a trend capturing directional slope. On each bar, the level updates by blending the current source price with a one-step-ahead expectation from the prior level and damped trend. The trend then adjusts by weighting the change in level against the prior damped trend. Forecasts extend this forward over a user-defined number of steps, with damping ensuring the trend influence diminishes over distance.
Uncertainty derives from the standard deviation of historical residuals—the differences between actual prices and one-step expectations—scaled by the damping structure for the forecast horizon. Bands form around the median forecast at specified confidence intervals using these scaled errors. Initialization seeds the level to the first bar's price and trend to zero, with persistence handling subsequent updates. A security call fetches the last bar index for tail logic, using lookahead to align with realtime but introducing minor repaint on unconfirmed bars.
Parameter Guide
The Source parameter selects the price input for level and residual calculations, defaulting to close; consider using high or low for assets sensitive to volatility, as close works well for most trend-following setups. Forecast Steps (h) defines the number of bars ahead for projections, defaulting to 4—shorter values like 1 to 5 suit intraday trading, while longer ones may widen bands excessively in choppy conditions. The Color Scheme (2025 Trends) option sets the base, up, and down colors for bands, labels, and backgrounds, starting with Ruby Dawn; opt for serene schemes on clean charts or vibrant ones to stand out in dark themes.
Level Smoothing α controls the responsiveness of the price baseline, defaulting to 0.3—values above 0.5 enhance tracking in fast markets but may amplify noise, whereas lower settings filter disturbances better. Trend Smoothing β adjusts sensitivity to slope changes, at 0.1 by default; increasing to 0.2 helps detect emerging shifts quicker, but keeping it low prevents whipsaws in sideways action. Damping φ (0..1) governs trend persistence, defaulting to 0.8—near 0.9 preserves carryover in sustained moves, while closer to 0.5 curbs overextensions more aggressively.
Show Fan Bands (50/75/95) toggles the probabilistic range display, enabled by default; disable it in oscillator panes to reduce clutter, but it's key for overlay forecasts. Residual Window (Bars) sets the length for deviation estimates, at 400 bars initially—100 to 200 works for short timeframes, and 500 or more adds stability over extended histories. Line Width determines the thickness of band and median lines, defaulting to 2; go thicker at 3 to 5 for emphasis on higher timeframes or thinner for layered indicators.
Show Median/Forecast Line reveals the central projection, on by default—hide if bands provide enough detail, or keep for pinpoint entry references. Show Integrated Label activates the combined view of forecast, momentum, and signal, defaulting to true; it's right-aligned for convenience, so turn it off on smaller screens to save space. Show Tail Background colors the last few bars by forecast direction, enabled initially; pair low transparency for subtle hints or higher for bolder emphasis.
Tail Length (Bars) specifies bars to color backward from the current one, at 3 by default—1 to 2 fits scalping, while 5 or more underscores building momentum. Tail Transparency (%) fades the background intensity, starting at 80; 50 to 70 delivers strong signals, and 90 or above allows seamless blending. Include Momentum in Label adds the scaled trend value, defaulting to true—ATR% scaling here offers relative strength context across assets.
Include Long/Short/Neutral Signal in Label displays direction from the trend sign, on by default; neutral helps in ranging markets, though it can be overlooked during strong trends. Scaling normalizes momentum output (raw, ATR-relative, or level-relative), set to ATR% initially—ATR% ensures cross-asset comparability, while %Level provides percentage perspectives. ATR Length defines the period for true range averaging in scaling, at 14; align it with your chart timeframe or shorten for quicker volatility responses.
Decimals sets precision in the momentum label, defaulting to 2—0 to 1 yields clean integers, and 3 or more suits detailed forex views. Show Zero-Cross Markers places arrows at direction changes, enabled by default; keep size small to minimize clutter, with text labels for fast scanning.
Reading & Interpretation
Fan bands expand outward from the current bar, with the median line as the central forecast—narrower bands indicate lower uncertainty, wider suggest caution. Colors tint up (positive forecast vs. prior level) in the scheme's up hue and down otherwise. The optional label lists the horizon, median, and range brackets at 50%, 75%, and 95% levels, followed by momentum (scaled per mode) and signal (Long if positive trend, Short if negative, Neutral if zero). Zero-cross arrows mark trend flips: upward triangle below bar for bullish cross, downward above for bearish. Tail background reinforces the forecast direction on recent bars.
Practical Workflows & Combinations
- Trend following: Enter long on upward zero-cross if median forecast rises above price and bands contain it; confirm with higher highs/lows. Short on downward cross with falling median.
- Exits/Stops: Trail stops below 50% lower band in longs; exit if momentum drifts negative or signal turns neutral. Use wider bands (75/95%) for conservative holds in volatile regimes.
- Multi-asset/Multi-TF: Defaults work across stocks, forex, crypto on 5m-1D; scale steps by TF (e.g., 10+ on daily). Layer with volume or structure tools—avoid over-reliance on isolated crosses.
Behavior, Constraints & Performance
Closed-bar logic ensures stable historical plots, but realtime updates via security lookahead may shift forecasts until bar confirmation, introducing minor repaint on the last bar. No explicit HTF calls beyond bar index fetch, minimizing gaps but watch for low-liquidity assets. Resources include a 2000-bar lookback for residuals and up to 500 labels, with no loops—efficient for most charts. Known limits: Early bars show wide bands due to sparse residuals; assumes stationary errors, so gaps or regime shifts widen inaccuracies.
Sensible Defaults & Quick Tuning
Start with defaults for balanced smoothing on 15m-4H charts. For choppy conditions (too many crosses), lower β to 0.05 and raise residual window to 600 for stability. In trending markets (sluggish signals), increase α/β to 0.4/0.2 and shorten steps to 2. If bands overexpand, boost φ toward 0.95 to preserve trend carry. Tune colors for theme fit without altering logic.
What this indicator is—and isn’t
This is a visualization and signal layer for damped forecasts and momentum, complementing price action analysis. It isn’t a standalone system—pair with risk rules and broader context. Not predictive beyond the horizon; use for confirmation, not blind entries.
