Bitcoin Halving Cycles [DotGain]Halving Cycles
A lightweight, time-anchored Bitcoin halving cycle visualizer built for clean charting, repeatable process planning, and simple profit/DCA timing references.
This Code was heavily inspired by KevinSvenson_ who created Bitcoin Halving Cycle Profit .
What this indicator does
This script plots the key “cycle landmarks” relative to each halving date:
Halving (⛏) – the cycle anchor
Profit START – marks the beginning of the post-halving profit window (default: 40 weeks )
Profit END / Last Call – marks the final phase of the profit window (default: 77 weeks )
DCA START – marks the point where long-term accumulation becomes the focus again (default: 135 weeks )
How to read it
Vertical lines = the exact cycle milestones
Bottom labels = description of each milestone aligned to its line (keeps the chart clean)
Green background (optional) = active Profit Zone on existing bars
Red background (optional) = optional warning zone after Profit END
HUD Panel (top-right)
The HUD gives you a fast “where are we in the cycle?” view with two modes:
Current Cycle
Shows: Halving date, Weeks since, and time remaining to Profit START / Last Call / DCA START within the current cycle.
Next Halving (Projection)
Shows: Countdown to the next enabled future halving, plus the projected weeks from today to Profit START / Last Call / DCA START after that future halving.
Future Halvings (manual)
You can manually add up to 3 future halving dates (Halving #1–#3).
This is useful for forward planning and cycle projection even before the event happens.
Enable Halving #1 / #2 / #3
Set Year / Month / Day for each
Optional: show/hide future markers & projections
Note: background zones only shade existing bars . Future projections are shown via lines/labels.
Settings overview
Show all cycles – plots every enabled cycle (historical + optional future). If disabled, only the current cycle is drawn.
Show Profit Zone background – green shading during the active profit window (current cycle only).
Show vertical markers + labels – toggles all milestone lines + labels.
Show HUD – toggles the HUD panel.
HUD Mode – switch between Current Cycle and Next Halving (Projection).
Cycle Logic – edit offsets in weeks (Profit START / Profit END / DCA START).
Optional Warning Zone – show a post-profit warning shading for a chosen number of weeks.
Have fun :)

Mean Reversion Mirror📌 Mean Reversion Mirror — Multi‑Level Mean Reversion Strategy
Mean Reversion Mirror is an advanced modular mean‑reversion strategy built around dynamic and static deviation levels from a moving average.
The strategy automatically scales into positions across six levels (LONG and SHORT), using both dynamic MA‑based deviation levels and static levels that lock in after entry.
🔍 Core Concept
Price tends to revert toward its mean.
This strategy exploits that behavior by opening an initial base entry at the first deviation and adding positions as the imbalance grows.
Each additional level improves the average entry price and increases the probability of exiting profitably.
⚙️ Key Features
📈 Six Dynamic Deviation Levels
Levels are calculated as percentage deviations from a selected MA (WMA, SMA, EMA, RMA, HMA).
This makes the strategy adaptive to volatility and market structure.
📉 Six Static Levels
Once triggered, each level becomes fixed and no longer changes.
This creates a stable averaging grid independent of future MA movement.
🎯 Flexible Take‑Profit System
fixed take‑profit
or trailing take‑profit with dynamic offset
🖐 Manual Entry Support
You can manually set a price for LONG or SHORT, and the strategy will execute the base entry automatically.
📊 Rich Visualization
dynamic deviation levels
static levels
dotted “last chance” levels
average position price
take‑profit line
compact mini‑table with key position metrics
📦 Two Operating Modes
STK Mode — fixed unit size
Classic Mode — quantity calculated from USD value
🧠 Entry Logic
The strategy uses sequences B1–B6 (LONG) and S1–S6 (SHORT):
B1/S1 — base entry
B2–B6 / S2–S6 — averaging entries as deviation increases
L6/S6 — “last chance” level with its own size
Each level activates only after the previous one.
📌 Who This Strategy Is For
mean‑reversion traders
grid/averaging system users
pullback‑based investors
traders who want clear visual levels
users who prefer manual control over entry points
⚠️ Disclaimer
This strategy is not financial advice.
Always backtest and adjust parameters according to your risk tolerance before using it in live markets.

Dips Oleg Adaptive Dip‑Buying Strategy with Lot Precision & Smart Averaging
📘 Description
This strategy is a personalized adaptation of an idea originally developed by the respected author fullmax.
I reworked the concept to suit my own trading approach, adding lot‑precision rounding to avoid exchange quantity errors when using webhooks, and enhancing the visual and analytical components of the script.
🔧 What’s New in This Version
Configurable lot precision to ensure clean, exchange‑safe order sizes
Improved UI elements: base‑order labels, compact mini‑table, grouped settings
Dynamic safety‑order pricing based on price drops and scaling factors
Flexible date‑range filtering for controlled backtesting
Clear visualization of SMA threshold, safety levels, breakeven, and take‑profit
Adaptive threshold logic that adjusts depending on trend conditions
🎯 Core Logic
The strategy monitors how far price deviates from a short‑term SMA.
When the deviation crosses a user‑defined threshold, the script opens a base position.
If price continues to dip, the system deploys safety orders with:
scalable volume
scalable distance
precise rounding for compatibility with webhook automation
Once the position is built, the strategy manages exits using a fixed take‑profit target.
A breakeven reference line and auto‑cleanup logic help maintain clarity and prevent stale orders.
⚙️ Feature Overview
Dip‑based entry logic with bull/bear threshold switching
Safety orders with volume and step scaling
Take‑profit management
Breakeven visualization
Mini‑table showing real‑time position metrics
Clean chart overlays for easier interpretation
📝 Disclaimer
This script is intended for educational and analytical use.
It does not guarantee profits and should be tested thoroughly before being used in live trading.
Mean Reversion Oleg📘 Description
This script is an extended and customized version of the original “Mean Reversion V‑F” created by the respected author fullmax.
I adapted the logic for my own trading workflow and added several improvements aimed at stability, automation, and exchange‑safe execution when using webhooks.
🔧 Key Enhancements
Lot precision control (prevents exchange errors when sending webhook orders)
Base order labels for visual clarity
Mini‑table with live position metrics
Dynamic deviation levels (L1–L5)
Static averaging levels (B2–B5)
Trailing take‑profit option
Support for stock mode (fixed units instead of quantity)
Webhook fields for entry and exit signals
🎯 How the Strategy Works
The script calculates a moving average and builds five deviation‑based levels below it.
When price reaches these levels, the strategy opens a base order (B1) and then averages the position using B2–B5 levels.
After entering a position, the strategy manages it using:
a fixed take‑profit target
or an optional trailing take‑profit
plus a visual table showing position size, USD value, open PnL, and equity
All quantities are rounded according to the selected lot precision to ensure compatibility with exchange requirements when using webhook automation.
⚙️ Features Overview
Automated long entries based on deviation levels
Configurable order sizes for each averaging step
Optional stock‑mode (units instead of calculated quantity)
Dynamic and static level visualization
Trailing TP with adjustable distance
Clean UI with optional labels and mini‑table

ETH Dynamic Risk Strategy# ETH Dynamic Risk Strategy - Publication Description
## Overview
The ETH Dynamic Risk Strategy is a systematic approach to accumulating Ethereum during bear markets and distributing during bull markets. It combines multiple risk indicators into a single composite metric (0-1 scale) that identifies optimal buying and selling zones based on market conditions.
## Key Features
• **Multi-Component Risk Metric**: Combines 4 weighted indicators to assess market conditions
• **Tiered Buy/Sell System**: 3 levels of buy signals (L1, L2, L3) and 3 levels of sell signals based on risk thresholds
• **Configurable Filters**: Optional buy filters to reduce signal frequency by 30-50%
• **Visual Risk Zones**: Color-coded risk metric plot with clear threshold lines
• **Comprehensive Dashboard**: Real-time statistics including position size, P/L, and component scores
## How It Works
### Risk Components (Configurable Weights)
1. **Log Return from ATH** (Default: 35%)
- Tracks drawdown from all-time high over lookback period
- Deep drawdowns (-70% to -90%) = low risk / buying opportunity
- Near ATH (0% to -20%) = high risk / selling opportunity
2. **ETH/BTC Ratio** (Default: 25%)
- Measures ETH strength relative to Bitcoin
- Below historical average = ETH undervalued = low risk
- Above historical average = ETH overvalued = high risk
3. **Volatility Regime** (Default: 20%)
- Compares current volatility to long-term average
- Compressed volatility at lows = opportunity
- Expanded volatility at highs = danger
4. **Trend Strength** (Default: 20%)
- Uses multiple EMA alignment and slope analysis
- Strong downtrends = low risk scores
- Strong uptrends = high risk scores
### Trading Logic
**Buy Signals:**
- L1: Risk ≤ 0.30 → Buy $100 (default)
- L2: Risk ≤ 0.20 → Buy $250 total
- L3: Risk ≤ 0.10 → Buy $450 total
**Sell Signals (Sequential):**
- L1: Risk ≥ 0.75 → Sell 25% of position
- L2: Risk ≥ 0.85 → Sell 35% of remaining
- L3: Risk ≥ 0.95 → Sell 40% of remaining
**Buy Filters (Optional):**
- Minimum days between buys (prevents clustering)
- Minimum risk drop required (ensures falling risk)
- Toggle on/off to compare performance
## Settings Guide
### Risk Components
Toggle individual components on/off and adjust their weights. Total weight is automatically normalized. Experiment with different combinations to match your market view.
### Advanced Settings
- ATH Lookback: How far back to look for all-time highs (500-2000 recommended)
- Volatility Period: Window for volatility calculations (40-100 recommended)
- ETH/BTC MA Period: Moving average for ratio comparison (100-300 recommended)
- Trend Period: Base period for trend calculations (50-150 recommended)
### Trading Thresholds
Customize buy/sell trigger points and position sizes. Lower buy thresholds = more aggressive accumulation. Higher sell thresholds = holding longer into bull markets.
### Buy Filters
- Enable/disable filtering system
- Min Days Between Buys: Spacing between purchases (1-3 recommended)
- Min Risk Drop: How much risk must fall (-0.001 to -0.01 range)
## Best Practices
• **Timeframe**: Works best on daily (1D) and 3-day (3D) charts
• **Initial Capital**: Set based on your DCA budget (default $10,000)
• **Backtest First**: Test different parameter combinations on historical data
• **Position Sizing**: Adjust buy amounts to match your risk tolerance
• **Monitor Filters**: Check "Filtered Buys" stat to ensure filter isn't too strict
## Use Cases
- Long-term ETH accumulation strategy
- Systematic DCA with market-adaptive buying
- Risk-based portfolio rebalancing
- Educational tool for understanding crypto market cycles
## Disclaimer
This strategy is for educational purposes only. Past performance does not guarantee future results. Cryptocurrency trading involves substantial risk. The strategy uses historical price action and technical indicators which may not predict future movements. Always do your own research and never invest more than you can afford to lose.

ALT Risk Metric StrategyHere's a professional write-up for your ALT Risk Strategy script:
ALT/BTC Risk Strategy - Multi-Crypto DCA with Bitcoin Correlation Analysis
Overview
This strategy uses Bitcoin correlation as a risk indicator to time entries and exits for altcoins. By analyzing how your chosen altcoin performs relative to Bitcoin, the strategy identifies optimal accumulation periods (when alt/BTC is oversold) and profit-taking opportunities (when alt/BTC is overbought). Perfect for traders who want to outperform Bitcoin by strategically timing altcoin positions.
Key Innovation: Why Alt/BTC Matters
Most traders focus solely on USD price, but Alt/BTC ratios reveal true altcoin strength:
When Alt/BTC is low → Altcoin is undervalued relative to Bitcoin (buy opportunity)
When Alt/BTC is high → Altcoin has outperformed Bitcoin (take profits)
This approach captures the rotation between BTC and alts that drives crypto cycles
Key Features
📊 Advanced Technical Analysis
RSI (60% weight): Primary momentum indicator on weekly timeframe
Long-term MA Deviation (35% weight): Measures distance from 150-period baseline
MACD (5% weight): Minor confirmation signal
EMA Smoothing: Filters noise while maintaining responsiveness
All calculations performed on Alt/BTC pairs for superior market timing
💰 3-Tier DCA System
Level 1 (Risk ≤ 70): Conservative entry, base allocation
Level 2 (Risk ≤ 50): Increased allocation, strong opportunity
Level 3 (Risk ≤ 30): Maximum allocation, extreme undervaluation
Continuous buying: Executes every bar while below threshold for true DCA behavior
Cumulative sizing: L3 triggers = L1 + L2 + L3 amounts combined
📈 Smart Profit Management
Sequential selling: Must complete L1 before L2, L2 before L3
Percentage-based exits: Sell portions of position, not fixed amounts
Auto-reset on re-entry: New buy signals reset sell progression
Prevents premature full exits during volatile conditions
🤖 3Commas Automation
Pre-configured JSON webhooks for Custom Signal Bots
Multi-exchange support: Binance, Coinbase, Kraken, Bitfinex, Bybit
Flexible quote currency: USD, USDT, or BUSD
Dynamic order sizing: Automatically adjusts to your tier thresholds
Full webhook documentation compliance
🎨 Multi-Asset Support
Pre-configured for popular altcoins:
ETH (Ethereum)
SOL (Solana)
ADA (Cardano)
LINK (Chainlink)
UNI (Uniswap)
XRP (Ripple)
DOGE
RENDER
Custom option for any other crypto
How It Works
Risk Metric Calculation (0-100 scale):
Fetches weekly Alt/BTC price data for stability
Calculates RSI, MACD, and deviation from 150-period MA
Normalizes MACD to 0-100 range using 500-bar lookback
Combines weighted components: (MACD × 0.05) + (RSI × 0.60) + (Deviation × 0.35)
Applies 5-period EMA smoothing for cleaner signals
Color-Coded Risk Zones:
Green (0-30): Extreme buying opportunity - Alt heavily oversold vs BTC
Lime/Yellow (30-70): Accumulation range - favorable risk/reward
Orange (70-85): Caution zone - consider taking initial profits
Red/Maroon (85-100+): Euphoria zone - aggressive profit-taking
Entry Logic:
Buys execute every candle when risk is below threshold
As risk decreases, position sizing automatically scales up
Example: If risk drops from 60→25, you'll be buying at L1 rate until it hits 50, then L2 rate, then L3 rate
Exit Logic:
Sells only trigger when in profit AND risk exceeds thresholds
Sequential execution ensures partial profit-taking
If new buy signal occurs before all sells complete, sell levels reset to L1
Configuration Guide
Choosing Your Altcoin:
Select crypto from dropdown (or use CUSTOM for unlisted coins)
Pick your exchange
Choose quote currency (USD, USDT, BUSD)
Risk Metric Tuning:
Long Term MA (default 150): Higher = more extreme signals, Lower = more frequent
RSI Length (default 10): Lower = more volatile, Higher = smoother
Smoothing (default 5): Increase for less noise, decrease for faster reaction
Buy Settings (Aggressive DCA Example):
L1 Threshold: 70 | Amount: $5
L2 Threshold: 50 | Amount: $6
L3 Threshold: 30 | Amount: $7
Total L3 buy = $18 per candle when deeply oversold
Sell Settings (Balanced Exit Example):
L1: 70 threshold, 25% position
L2: 85 threshold, 35% position
L3: 100 threshold, 40% position (final exit)

Backtesting Insights
Optimal Timeframes:
Daily chart: Best for backtesting and signal generation
Weekly data is fetched internally regardless of display timeframe
Historical Performance Characteristics:
Accumulates heavily during bear markets and BTC dominance periods
Captures explosive altcoin rallies when BTC stagnates
Sequential selling preserves capital during extended downtrends
Works best on established altcoins with multi-year history
Risk Considerations:
Requires capital reserves for extended accumulation periods
Some altcoins may never recover if fundamentals deteriorate
Past correlation patterns may not predict future performance
Always size positions according to personal risk tolerance
Visual Interface
Indicator Panel Displays:
Dynamic color line: Green→Lime→Yellow→Orange→Red as risk increases
Horizontal threshold lines: Dashed lines mark your buy/sell levels
Entry/Exit labels: Green labels for buys, Orange/Red/Maroon for sells
Real-time risk value: Numerical display on price scale
Customization:
All threshold lines are adjustable via inputs
Color scheme clearly differentiates buy zones (green spectrum) from sell zones (red spectrum)
Line weights emphasize most extreme thresholds (L3 buy and L3 sell)
Strategy Philosophy
This strategy is built on the principle that altcoins move in cycles relative to Bitcoin. During Bitcoin rallies, alts often bleed against BTC (high sell, accumulate). When Bitcoin consolidates, alts pump (take profits). By measuring risk on the Alt/BTC chart instead of USD price, we time these rotations with precision.
The 3-tier system ensures you're always averaging in at better prices and scaling out at better prices, maximizing your Bitcoin-denominated returns.
Advanced Tips
Multi-Bot Strategy:
Run this on 5-10 different altcoins simultaneously to:
Diversify correlation risk
Capture whichever alt is pumping
Smooth equity curve through rotation
Pairing with BTC Strategy:
Use alongside the BTC DCA Risk Strategy for complete portfolio coverage:
BTC strategy for core holdings
ALT strategies for alpha generation
Rebalance between them based on BTC dominance
Threshold Calibration:
Check 2-3 years of historical data for your chosen alt
Note where risk metric sat during major bottoms (set buy thresholds)
Note where it peaked during euphoria (set sell thresholds)
Adjust for your risk tolerance and holding period

BTC DCA Risk Metric StrategyBTC DCA Risk Strategy - Automated Dollar Cost Averaging with 3Commas Integration
Overview
This strategy combines the proven Oakley Wood Risk Metric with an intelligent tiered Dollar Cost Averaging (DCA) system, designed to help traders systematically accumulate Bitcoin during periods of low risk and take profits during high-risk conditions.
Key Features
📊 Multi-Component Risk Assessment
4-Year SMA Deviation: Measures Bitcoin's distance from its long-term mean
20-Week MA Analysis: Tracks medium-term momentum shifts
50-Day/50-Week MA Ratio: Captures short-to-medium term trend strength
All metrics are normalized by time to account for Bitcoin's maturing market dynamics
💰 3-Tier DCA Buy System
Level 1 (Low Risk): Conservative entry with base allocation
Level 2 (Lower Risk): Increased allocation as opportunity improves
Level 3 (Extreme Low Risk): Maximum allocation during rare buying opportunities
Buys execute every bar while risk remains below thresholds, enabling true DCA accumulation
📈 Progressive Profit Taking
Sell Level 1: Take initial profits as risk increases
Sell Level 2: Scale out further positions during elevated risk
Sell Level 3: Final exit during extreme market conditions
Sell levels automatically reset when new buy signals occur, allowing flexible re-entry
🤖 3Commas Integration
Fully automated webhook alerts for Custom Signal Bots
JSON payloads formatted per 3Commas API specifications
Supports multiple exchanges (Binance, Coinbase, Kraken, Gemini, Bybit)
Configurable quote currency (USD, USDT, BUSD)
How It Works
The strategy calculates a composite risk metric (0-1 scale):
0.0-0.2: Extreme buying opportunity (green zone)
0.2-0.5: Favorable accumulation range (yellow zone)
0.5-0.8: Neutral to cautious territory (orange zone)
0.8-1.0+: High risk, profit-taking zone (red zone)
Buy Logic: As risk decreases, position sizes increase automatically. If risk drops from L1 to L3 threshold, the strategy combines all three tier allocations for maximum exposure.
Sell Logic: Sequential profit-taking ensures you capture gains progressively. The system won't advance to Sell L2 until L1 completes, preventing premature full exits.
Configuration
Risk Metric Parameters:
All calculations use Bitcoin price data (any BTC chart works)
Time-normalized formulas adapt to market maturity
No manual parameter tuning required
Buy Settings:
Set risk thresholds for each tier (default: 0.20, 0.10, 0.00)
Define dollar amounts per tier (default: $10, $15, $20)

DCA Ladder CalculatorThis script is a DCA (Dollar-Cost Averaging) Ladder Calculator with Risk & Leverage Management baked in.
It’s designed for both LONG and SHORT positions, and helps you:
🎯 Strategically scale into positions across multiple entry points
🔐 Control risk exposure via defined capital allocation
⚖️ Utilize leverage responsibly — for efficiency, not destruction
🧮 Visualize risk, stop loss level, and entry distribution
🔁 Adapt to trend reversals or key zones, especially when combined with reversal indicators or higher timeframe signals
🧠 How It Works
This tool takes a capital allocation approach to building a ladder of positions:
1. You define:
- Portfolio value
- Risk per trade (as %)
- Leverage
- Number of DCA levels
- Entry multiplier (e.g. 1x, 2x, 4x...)
2. The script then:
- Calculates total margin to risk = Portfolio × Risk %
- Calculates total leveraged position size = Margin × Leverage
- Distributes entries according to exponential weights (1x, 2x, 4x...), totaling 7 for 3 levels
- Calculates per-entry:
- Entry price (based on price zone spacing)
- Multiplier
- Exact margin per entry
- Leverage per entry (margin × leverage)
- Computes:
- Average entry price (margin-weighted)
- Approximate stop loss level based on recent ATR and price structure
- % drawdown to SL
- Total margin and position size
3. Displays all this in a clean on-chart table.
📈 How to Use It
1. Apply the indicator to a chart (default: 1D — ideal for clean zones).
2. Configure your:
- Portfolio Value (total trading capital)
- Risk per Trade (%) (your acceptable loss)
- Leverage (exchange or strategy-based)
- DCA Levels (e.g. 3 = anchor + 2 entries)
- Multiplier (typically 2.0 for doubling)
3. Choose LONG or SHORT mode depending on direction.
4. The table will show:
- Entry price ladder
- Margin used per entry
- Total position size
- Approx. stop loss (where your full risk is defined)
Use in conjunction with price action, S/R zones, trendline breaks, volume divergence, or reversal indicators.
✅ Best Practices for Using This Tool
- Leverage is a tool, not a weapon. Use it to scale smartly — not recklessly.
- Use fewer, higher-conviction entries. Don’t blindly ladder; combine with price structure and signals.
- Stick to your risk percent. Never risk more than you can afford to lose. Let this calculator enforce discipline.
- Combine with other confirmation tools, like RSI divergence, momentum shifts, OB zones, etc.
- Avoid martingale-style over-exposure. This is not a gambling tool — it’s for capital efficiency.
🛡️ What This Tool Does NOT Do
- This is not a trade signal indicator.
- It does not place trades or auto-manage positions.
- It does not replace personal responsibility or strategy — it's a tool to help apply structure.

Mars Signals - Ultimate Institutional Suite v3.0(Joker)Comprehensive Trading Manual
Mars Signals – Ultimate Institutional Suite v3.0 (Joker)
## Chapter 1 – Philosophy & System Architecture
This script is not a simple “buy/sell” indicator.
Mars Signals – UIS v3.0 (Joker) is designed as an institutional-style analytical assistant that layers several methodologies into a single, coherent framework.
The system is built on four core pillars:
1. Smart Money Concepts (SMC)
- Detection of Order Blocks (professional demand/supply zones).
- Detection of Fair Value Gaps (FVGs) (price imbalances).
2. Smart DCA Strategy
- Combination of RSI and Bollinger Bands
- Identifies statistically discounted zones for scaling into spot positions or exiting shorts.
3. Volume Profile (Visible Range Simulation)
- Distribution of volume by price, not by time.
- Identification of POC (Point of Control) and high-/low-volume areas.
4. Wyckoff Helper – Spring
- Detection of bear traps, liquidity grabs, and sharp bullish reversals.
All four pillars feed into a Confluence Engine (Scoring System).
The final output is presented in the Dashboard, with a clear, human-readable signal:
- STRONG LONG 🚀
- WEAK LONG ↗
- NEUTRAL / WAIT
- WEAK SHORT ↘
- STRONG SHORT 🩸
This allows the trader to see *how many* and *which* layers of the system support a bullish or bearish bias at any given time.
## Chapter 2 – Settings Overview
### 2.1 General & Dashboard Group
- Show Dashboard Panel (`show_dash`)
Turns the dashboard table in the corner of the chart ON/OFF.
- Show Signal Recommendation (`show_rec`)
- If enabled, the textual signal (STRONG LONG, WEAK SHORT, etc.) is displayed.
- If disabled, you only see feature status (ON/OFF) and the current price.
- Dashboard Position (`dash_pos`)
Determines where the dashboard appears on the chart:
- `Top Right`
- `Bottom Right`
- `Top Left`
### 2.2 Smart Money (SMC) Group
- Enable SMC Strategy (`show_smc`)
Globally enables or disables the Order Block and FVG logic.
- Order Block Pivot Lookback (`ob_period`)
Main parameter for detecting key pivot highs/lows (swing points).
- Default value: 5
- Concept:
A bar is considered a pivot low if its low is lower than the lows of the previous 5 and the next 5 bars.
Similarly, a pivot high has a high higher than the previous 5 and the next 5 bars.
These pivots are used as anchors for Order Blocks.
- Increasing `ob_period`:
- Fewer levels.
- But levels tend to be more significant and reliable.
- In highly volatile markets (major news, war events, FOMC, etc.),
using values 7–10 is recommended to filter out weak levels.
- Show Fair Value Gaps (`show_fvg`)
Enables/disables the drawing of FVG zones (imbalances).
- Bullish OB Color (`c_ob_bull`)
- Color of Bullish Order Blocks (Demand Zones).
- Default: semi-transparent green (transparency ≈ 80).
- Bearish OB Color (`c_ob_bear`)
- Color of Bearish Order Blocks (Supply Zones).
- Default: semi-transparent red.
- Bullish FVG Color (`c_fvg_bull`)
- Color of Bullish FVG (upward imbalance), typically yellow.
- Bearish FVG Color (`c_fvg_bear`)
- Color of Bearish FVG (downward imbalance), typically purple.
### 2.3 Smart DCA Strategy Group
- Enable DCA Zones (`show_dca`)
Enables the Smart DCA logic and visual labels.
- RSI Length (`rsi_len`)
Lookback period for RSI (default: 14).
- Shorter → more sensitive, more noise.
- Longer → fewer signals, higher reliability.
- Bollinger Bands Length (`bb_len`)
Moving average period for Bollinger Bands (default: 20).
- BB Multiplier (`bb_mult`)
Standard deviation multiplier for Bollinger Bands (default: 2.0).
- For extremely volatile markets, values like 2.5–3.0 can be used so that only extreme deviations trigger a DCA signal.
### 2.4 Volume Profile (Visible Range Sim) Group
- Show Volume Profile (`show_vp`)
Enables the simulated Volume Profile bars on the right side of the chart.
- Volume Lookback Bars (`vp_lookback`)
Number of bars used to compute the Volume Profile (default: 150).
- Higher values → broader historical context, heavier computation.
- Row Count (`vp_rows`)
Number of vertical price segments (rows) to divide the total price range into (default: 30).
- Width (%) (`vp_width`)
Relative width of each volume bar as a percentage.
In the code, bar widths are scaled relative to the row with the maximum volume.
> Technical note: Volume Profile calculations are executed only on the last bar (`barstate.islast`) to keep the script performant even on higher timeframes.
### 2.5 Wyckoff Helper Group
- Show Wyckoff Events (`show_wyc`)
Enables detection and plotting of Wyckoff Spring events.
- Volume MA Length (`vol_ma_len`)
Length of the moving average on volume.
A bar is considered to have Ultra Volume if its volume is more than 2× the volume MA.
## Chapter 3 – Smart Money Strategy (Order Blocks & FVG)
### 3.1 What Is an Order Block?
An Order Block (OB) represents the footprint of large institutional orders:
- Bullish Order Block (Demand Zone)
The last selling region (bearish candle/cluster) before a strong upward move.
- Bearish Order Block (Supply Zone)
The last buying region (bullish candle/cluster) before a strong downward move.
Institutions and large players place heavy orders in these regions. Typical price behavior:
- Price moves away from the zone.
- Later returns to the same zone to fill unfilled orders.
- Then continues the larger trend.
In the script:
- If `pl` (pivot low) forms → a Bullish OB is created.
- If `ph` (pivot high) forms → a Bearish OB is created.
The box is drawn:
- From `bar_index ` to `bar_index`.
- Between `low ` and `high `.
- `extend=extend.right` extends the OB into the future, so it acts as a dynamic support/resistance zone.
- Only the last 4 OB boxes are kept to avoid clutter.
### 3.2 Order Block Color Guide
- Semi-transparent Green (`c_ob_bull`)
- Represents a Bullish Order Block (Demand Zone).
- Interpretation: a price region with a high probability of bullish reaction.
- Semi-transparent Red (`c_ob_bear`)
- Represents a Bearish Order Block (Supply Zone).
- Interpretation: a price region with a high probability of bearish reaction.
Overlap (Multiple OBs in the Same Area)
When two or more Order Blocks overlap:
- The shared area appears visually denser/stronger.
- This suggests higher order density.
- Such zones can be treated as high-priority levels for entries, exits, and stop-loss placement.
### 3.3 Demand/Supply Logic in the Scoring Engine
is_in_demand = low <= ta.lowest(low, 20)
is_in_supply = high >= ta.highest(high, 20)
- If current price is near the lowest lows of the last 20 bars, it is considered in a Demand Zone → positive impact on score.
- If current price is near the highest highs of the last 20 bars, it is considered in a Supply Zone → negative impact on score.
This logic complements Order Blocks and helps the Dashboard distinguish whether:
- Market is currently in a statistically cheap (long-friendly) area, or
- In a statistically expensive (short-friendly) area.
### 3.4 Fair Value Gaps (FVG)
#### Concept
When the market moves aggressively:
- Some price levels are skipped and never traded.
- A gap between wicks/shadows of consecutive candles appears.
- These regions are called Fair Value Gaps (FVGs) or Imbalances.
The market generally “dislikes” imbalance and often:
- Returns to these zones in the future.
- Fills the gap (rebalance).
- Then resumes its dominant direction.
#### Implementation in the Code
Bullish FVG (Yellow)
fvg_bull_cond = show_smc and show_fvg and low > high and close > high
if fvg_bull_cond
box.new(bar_index , high , bar_index, low, ...)
Core condition:
`low > high ` → the current low is above the high of two bars ago; the space between them is an untraded gap.
Bearish FVG (Purple)
fvg_bear_cond = show_smc and show_fvg and high < low and close < low
if fvg_bear_cond
box.new(bar_index , low , bar_index, high, ...)
Core condition:
`high < low ` → the current high is below the low of two bars ago; again a price gap exists.
#### FVG Color Guide
- Transparent Yellow (`c_fvg_bull`) – Bullish FVG
Often acts like a magnet for price:
- Price tends to retrace into this zone,
- Fill the imbalance,
- And then continue higher.
- Transparent Purple (`c_fvg_bear`) – Bearish FVG
Price tends to:
- Retrace upward into the purple area,
- Fill the imbalance,
- And then resume downward movement.
#### Trading with FVGs
- FVGs are *not* standalone entry signals.
They are best used as:
- Targets (take-profit zones), or
- Reaction areas where you expect a pause or reversal.
Examples:
- If you are long, a bearish FVG above is often an excellent take-profit zone.
- If you are short, a bullish FVG below is often a good cover/exit zone.
### 3.5 Core SMC Trading Templates
#### Reversal Long
1. Price trades down into a green Order Block (Demand Zone).
2. A bullish confirmation candle (Close > Open) forms inside or just above the OB.
3. If this zone is close to or aligned with a bullish FVG (yellow), the signal is reinforced.
4. Entry:
- At the close of the confirmation candle, or
- Using a limit order near the upper boundary of the OB.
5. Stop-loss:
- Slightly below the OB.
- If the OB is broken decisively and price consolidates below it, the zone loses validity.
6. Targets:
- The next FVG,
- Or the next red Order Block (Supply Zone) above.
#### Reversal Short
The mirror scenario:
- Price rallies into a red Order Block (Supply).
- A bearish confirmation candle forms (Close < Open).
- FVG/premium structure above can act as a confluence.
- Stop-loss goes above the OB.
- Targets: lower FVGs or subsequent green OBs below.
## Chapter 4 – Smart DCA Strategy (RSI + Bollinger Bands)
### 4.1 Smart DCA Concept
- Classic DCA = buying at fixed time intervals regardless of price.
- Smart DCA = scaling in only when:
- Price is statistically cheaper than usual, and
- The market is in a clear oversold condition.
Code logic:
rsi_val = ta.rsi(close, rsi_len)
= ta.bb(close, bb_len, bb_mult)
dca_buy = show_dca and rsi_val < 30 and close < bb_lower
dca_sell = show_dca and rsi_val > 70 and close > bb_upper
Conditions:
- DCA Buy – Smart Scale-In Zone
- RSI < 30 → oversold.
- Close < lower Bollinger Band → price has broken below its typical volatility envelope.
- DCA Sell – Overbought/Distribution Zone
- RSI > 70 → overbought.
- Close > upper Bollinger Band → price is extended far above the mean.
### 4.2 Visual Representation on the Chart
- Green “DCA” Label Below Candle
- Shape: `labelup`.
- Color: lime background, white text.
- Meaning: statistically attractive level for laddered spot entries or short exits.
- Red “SELL” Label Above Candle
- Warning that the market is in an extended, overbought condition.
- Suitable for profit-taking on longs or considering short entries (with proper confluence and risk management).
- Light Green Background (`bgcolor`)
- When `dca_buy` is true, the candle background turns very light green (high transparency).
- This helps visually identify DCA Zones across the chart at a glance.
### 4.3 Practical Use in Trading
#### Spot Trading
Used to build a better average entry price:
- Every time a DCA label appears, allocate a fixed portion of capital (e.g., 2–5%).
- Combining DCA signals with:
- Green OBs (Demand Zones), and/or
- The Volume Profile POC
makes the zone structurally more important.
#### Futures Trading
- Longs
- Use DCA Buy signals as low-risk zones for opening or adding to longs when:
- Price is inside a green OB, or
- The Dashboard already leans LONG.
- Shorts
- Use DCA Sell signals as:
- Exit zones for longs, or
- Areas to initiate shorts with stops above structural highs.
## Chapter 5 – Volume Profile (Visible Range Simulation)
### 5.1 Concept
Traditional volume (histogram under the chart) shows volume over time.
Volume Profile shows volume by price level:
- At which prices has the highest trading activity occurred?
- Where did buyers and sellers agree the most (High Volume Nodes – HVNs)?
- Where did price move quickly due to low participation (Low Volume Nodes – LVNs)?
### 5.2 Implementation in the Script
Executed only when `show_vp` is enabled and on the last bar:
1. The last `vp_lookback` bars (default 150) are processed.
2. The minimum low and maximum high over this window define the price range.
3. This price range is divided into `vp_rows` segments (e.g., 30 rows).
4. For each row:
- All bars are scanned.
- If the mid-price `(high + low ) / 2` falls inside a row, that bar’s volume is added to the row total.
5. The row with the greatest volume is stored as `max_vol_idx` (the POC row).
6. For each row, a volume box is drawn on the right side of the chart.
### 5.3 Color Scheme
- Semi-transparent Orange
- The row with the maximum volume – the Point of Control (POC).
- Represents the strongest support/resistance level from a volume perspective.
- Semi-transparent Blue
- Other volume rows.
- The taller the bar → the higher the volume → the stronger the interest at that price band.
### 5.4 Trading Applications
- If price is above POC and retraces back into it:
→ POC often acts as support, suitable for long setups.
- If price is below POC and rallies into it:
→ POC often acts as resistance, suitable for short setups or profit-taking.
HVNs (Tall Blue Bars)
- Represent areas of equilibrium where the market has spent time and traded heavily.
- Price tends to consolidate here before choosing a direction.
LVNs (Short or Nearly Empty Bars)
- Represent low participation zones.
- Price often moves quickly through these areas – useful for targeting fast moves.
## Chapter 6 – Wyckoff Helper – Spring
### 6.1 Spring Concept
In the Wyckoff framework:
- A Spring is a false break of support.
- The market briefly trades below a well-defined support level, triggers stop losses,
then sharply reverses upward as institutional buyers absorb liquidity.
This movement:
- Clears out weak hands (retail sellers).
- Provides large players with liquidity to enter long positions.
- Often initiates a new uptrend.
### 6.2 Code Logic
Conditions for a Spring:
1. The current low is lower than the lowest low of the previous 50 bars
→ apparent break of a long-standing support.
2. The bar closes bullish (Close > Open)
→ the breakdown was rejected.
3. Volume is significantly elevated:
→ `volume > 2 × volume_MA` (Ultra Volume).
When all conditions are met and `show_wyc` is enabled:
- A pink diamond is plotted below the bar,
- With the label “Spring” – one of the strongest long signals in this system.
### 6.3 Trading Use
- After a valid Spring, markets frequently enter a meaningful bullish phase.
- The highest quality setups occur when:
- The Spring forms inside a green Order Block, and
- Near or on the Volume Profile POC.
Entries:
- At the close of the Spring bar, or
- On the first pullback into the mid-range of the Spring candle.
Stop-loss:
- Slightly below the Spring’s lowest point (wick low plus a small buffer).
## Chapter 7 – Confluence Engine & Dashboard
### 7.1 Scoring Logic
For each bar, the script:
1. Resets `score` to 0.
2. Adjusts the score based on different signals.
SMC Contribution
if show_smc
if is_in_demand
score += 1
if is_in_supply
score -= 1
- Being in Demand → `+1`
- Being in Supply → `-1`
DCA Contribution
if show_dca
if dca_buy
score += 2
if dca_sell
score -= 2
- DCA Buy → `+2` (strong, statistically driven long signal)
- DCA Sell → `-2`
Wyckoff Spring Contribution
if show_wyc
if wyc_spring
score += 2
- Spring → `+2` (entry of strong money)
### 7.2 Mapping Score to Dashboard Signal
- score ≥ 2 → STRONG LONG 🚀
Multiple bullish conditions aligned.
- score = 1 → WEAK LONG ↗
Some bullish bias, but only one layer clearly positive.
- score = 0 → NEUTRAL / WAIT
Rough balance between buying and selling forces; staying flat is usually preferable.
- score = -1 → WEAK SHORT ↘
Mild bearish bias, suited for cautious or short-term plays.
- score ≤ -2 → STRONG SHORT 🩸
Convergence of several bearish signals.
### 7.3 Dashboard Structure
The dashboard is a two-column table:
- Row 0
- Column 0: `"Mars Signals"` – black background, white text.
- Column 1: `"UIS v3.0"` – black background, yellow text.
- Row 1
- Column 0: `"Price:"` (light grey background).
- Column 1: current closing price (`close`) with a semi-transparent blue background.
- Row 2
- Column 0: `"SMC:"`
- Column 1:
- `"ON"` (green) if `show_smc = true`
- `"OFF"` (grey) otherwise.
- Row 3
- Column 0: `"DCA:"`
- Column 1:
- `"ON"` (green) if `show_dca = true`
- `"OFF"` (grey) otherwise.
- Row 4
- Column 0: `"Signal:"`
- Column 1: signal text (`status_txt`) with background color `status_col`
(green, red, teal, maroon, etc.)
- If `show_rec = false`, these cells are cleared.

## Chapter 9 – Timeframe-Based Trading Playbook
### 9.1 Timeframe Selection
- Scalping
- Timeframes: 1M, 5M, 15M
- Objective: fast intraday moves (minutes to a few hours).
- Recommendation: focus on SMC + Wyckoff.
Smart DCA on very low timeframes may introduce excessive noise.
- Day Trading
- Timeframes: 15M, 1H, 4H
- Provides a good balance between signal quality and frequency.
- Recommendation: use the full stack – SMC + DCA + Volume Profile + Wyckoff + Dashboard.
- Swing Trading & Position Investing
- Timeframes: Daily, Weekly
- Emphasis on Smart DCA + Volume Profile.
- SMC and Wyckoff are used mainly to fine-tune swing entries within larger trends.
### 9.2 Scenario A – Scalping Long
Example: 5-Minute Chart
1. Price is declining into a green OB (Bullish Demand).
2. A candle with a long lower wick and bullish close (Pin Bar / Rejection) forms inside the OB.
3. A Spring diamond appears below the same candle → very strong confluence.
4. The Dashboard shows at least WEAK LONG ↗, ideally STRONG LONG 🚀.
5. Entry:
- On the close of the confirmation candle, or
- On the first pullback into the mid-range of that candle.
6. Stop-loss:
- Slightly below the OB.
7. Targets:
- Nearby bearish FVG above, and/or
- The next red OB.
### 9.3 Scenario B – Day-Trading Short
Recommended Timeframes: 1H or 4H
1. The market completes a strong impulsive move upward.
2. Price enters a red Order Block (Supply).
3. In the same zone, a purple FVG appears or remains unfilled.
4. On a lower timeframe (e.g., 15M), RSI enters overbought territory and a DCA Sell signal appears.
5. The main timeframe Dashboard (1H) shows WEAK SHORT ↘ or STRONG SHORT 🩸.
Trade Plan
- Open a short near the upper boundary of the red OB.
- Place the stop above the OB or above the last swing high.
- Targets:
- A yellow FVG lower on the chart, and/or
- The next green OB (Demand) below.
### 9.4 Scenario C – Swing / Investment with Smart DCA
Timeframes: Daily / Weekly
1. On the daily or weekly chart, each time a green “DCA” label appears:
- Allocate a fixed fraction of your capital (e.g., 3–5%) to that asset.
2. Check whether this DCA zone aligns with the orange POC of the Volume Profile:
- If yes → the quality of the entry zone is significantly higher.
3. If the DCA signal sits inside a daily green OB, the probability of a medium-term bottom increases.
4. Always build the position laddered, never all-in at a single price.
Exits for investors:
- Near weekly red OBs or large purple FVG zones.
- Ideally via partial profit-taking rather than closing 100% at once.
### 9.5 Case Study 1 – BTCUSDT (15-Minute)
- Context: Price has sold off down towards 65,000 USD.
- A green OB had previously formed at that level.
- Near the lower boundary of this OB, a partially filled yellow FVG is present.
- As price returns to this region, a Spring appears.
- The Dashboard shifts from NEUTRAL / WAIT to WEAK LONG ↗.
Plan
- Enter a long near the OB low.
- Place stop below the Spring low.
- First target: a purple FVG around 66,200.
- Second (optional) target: the first red OB above that level.
### 9.6 Case Study 2 – Meme Coin (PEPE – 4H)
- After a strong pump, price enters a corrective phase.
- On the 4H chart, RSI drops below 30; price breaks below the lower Bollinger Band → a DCA label prints.
- The Volume Profile shows the POC at approximately the same level.
- The Dashboard displays STRONG LONG 🚀.
Plan
- Execute laddered buys in the combined DCA + POC zone.
- Place a protective stop below the last significant swing low.
- Target: an expected 20–30% upside move towards the next red OB or purple FVG.
## Chapter 10 – Risk Management, Psychology & Advanced Tuning
### 10.1 Risk Management
No signal, regardless of its strength, replaces risk control.
Recommendations:
- In futures, do not expose more than 1–3% of account equity to risk per trade.
- Adjust leverage to the volatility of the instrument (lower leverage for highly volatile altcoins).
- Place stop-losses in zones where the idea is clearly invalidated:
- Below/above the relevant Order Block or Spring, not randomly in the middle of the structure.
### 10.2 Market-Specific Parameter Tuning
- Calmer Markets (e.g., major FX pairs)
- `ob_period`: 3–5.
- `bb_mult`: 2.0 is usually sufficient.
- Highly Volatile Markets (Crypto, news-driven assets)
- `ob_period`: 7–10 to highlight only the most robust OBs.
- `bb_mult`: 2.5–3.0 so that only extreme deviations trigger DCA.
- `vol_ma_len`: increase (e.g., to ~30) so that Spring triggers only on truly exceptional
volume spikes.
### 10.3 Trading Psychology
- STRONG LONG 🚀 does not mean “risk-free”.
It means the probability of a successful long, given the model’s logic, is higher than average.
- Treat Mars Signals as a confirmation and context system, not a full replacement for your own decision-making.
- Example of disciplined thinking:
- The Dashboard prints STRONG LONG,
- But price is simultaneously testing a multi-month macro resistance or a major negative news event is imminent,
- In such cases, trade smaller, widen stops appropriately, or skip the trade.
## Chapter 11 – Technical Notes & FAQ
### 11.1 Does the Script Repaint?
- Order Blocks and Springs are based on completed pivot structures and confirmed candles.
- Until a pivot is confirmed, an OB does not exist; after confirmation, behavior is stable under classic SMC assumptions.
- The script is designed to be structurally consistent rather than repainting signals arbitrarily.
### 11.2 Computational Load of Volume Profile
- On the last bar, the script processes up to `vp_lookback` bars × `vp_rows` rows.
- On very low timeframes with heavy zooming, this can become demanding.
- If you experience performance issues:
- Reduce `vp_lookback` or `vp_rows`, or
- Temporarily disable Volume Profile (`show_vp = false`).
### 11.3 Multi-Timeframe Behavior
- This version of the script is not internally multi-timeframe.
All logic (OB, DCA, Spring, Volume Profile) is computed on the active timeframe only.
- Practical workflow:
- Analyze overall structure and key zones on higher timeframes (4H / Daily).
- Use lower timeframes (15M / 1H) with the same tool for timing entries and exits.
## Conclusion
Mars Signals – Ultimate Institutional Suite v3.0 (Joker) is a multi-layer trading framework that unifies:
- Price structure (Order Blocks & FVG),
- Statistical behavior (Smart DCA via RSI + Bollinger),
- Volume distribution by price (Volume Profile with POC, HVN, LVN),
- Liquidity events (Wyckoff Spring),
into a single, coherent system driven by a transparent Confluence Scoring Engine.
The final output is presented in clear, actionable language:
> STRONG LONG / WEAK LONG / NEUTRAL / WEAK SHORT / STRONG SHORT
The system is designed to support professional decision-making, not to replace it.
Used together with strict risk management and disciplined execution,
Mars Signals – UIS v3.0 (Joker) can serve as a central reference manual and operational guide
for your trading workflow, from scalping to swing and investment positioning.

Well I've developed this DCA Average Price Calculator to solve exactly that problem, bringing all your position planning directly onto your chart.
What It Does
This indicator is a interactive tool designed to calculate the weighted average price of up to 10 separate trade entries. It then plots your crucial breakeven (average price) and a customizable take-profit target directly on your chart, giving you a clear visual of your position.
Key Features
Up to 10 Order Entries: Plan complex DCA strategies with support for up to ten individual buys.
Flexible Size Input: Enter your position size in either USD Amount or Number of Shares/Contracts. The script is smart enough to know which one you're using.
Instant Average Price Calculation: Your weighted average price (your breakeven point) is calculated and plotted in real-time as a clean yellow line.
Customizable Take-Profit Target: Set your desired profit percentage and see your take-profit level instantly plotted as a green line.
Detailed On-Chart Labels: Each order you plot is marked with a detailed label showing the entry price, the number of shares purchased, and the total USD value of that entry.
Clean & Uncluttered UI: The main Average and TP labels are intelligently shifted to the right, ensuring they don't overlap with your entry markers, keeping your chart readable.
How to Use It - Simple Steps
Add the indicator to your chart.
Open the script's 'Settings' menu.
In the 'Take Profit' section, set your desired profit percentage (e.g., 1 for 1%).
Under the 'Orders' section, begin filling in your entries. For each 'Order #', enter the Price.
Next, enter the size. You can either fill in the 'Size (USD)' box OR the '/ Shares' box. Leave the one you're not using at 0.

DCA Percent SignalOverview
The DCA Percent Signal Indicator generates buy and sell signals based on percentage drops from all-time highs and percentage gains from lowest lows since ATH. This indicator is designed for pyramiding strategies where each signal represents a configurable percentage of equity allocation.
Definitions
DCA (Dollar-Cost Averaging): An investment strategy where you invest a fixed amount at regular intervals, regardless of price fluctuations. This indicator generates signals for a DCA-style pyramiding approach.
Gann Bar Types: Classification system for price bars based on their relationship to the previous bar:
Up Bar: High > previous high AND low ≥ previous low
Down Bar: High ≤ previous high AND low < previous low
Inside Bar: High ≤ previous high AND low ≥ previous low
Outside Bar: High > previous high AND low < previous low
ATH (All-Time High): The highest price level reached during the entire chart period
ATL (All-Time Low): The lowest price level reached since the most recent ATH
Pyramiding: A trading strategy that adds to positions on favorable price movements
Look-Ahead Bias: Using future information that wouldn't be available in real-time trading
Default Properties
Signal Thresholds:
Buy Threshold: 10% (triggers every 10% drop from ATH)
Sell Threshold: 30% (triggers every 30% gain from lowest low since ATH)
Price Sources:
ATH Tracking: High (ATH detection)
ATL Tracking: Low (low detection)
Buy Signal Source: Low (buy signals)
Sell Signal Source: High (sell signals)
Filter Options:
Apply Gann Filter: False (disabled by default)
Buy Sets ATL: False (disabled by default)
Display Options:
Show Buy/Sell Signals: True
Show Reference Lines: True
Show Info Table: False
Show Bar Type: False
How It Works
Buy Signals: Trigger every 10% drop from the all-time highest price reached
Sell Signals: Trigger every 30% increase from the lowest low since the most recent all-time high
Smart Tracking: Uses configurable price sources for signal generation
Key Features
Configurable Thresholds: Adjustable buy/sell percentage thresholds (default: 10%/30%)
Separate Price Sources: Independent sources for ATH tracking, ATL tracking, and signal triggers
Configurable Signals: Uses low for buy signals and high for sell signals by default
Optional Gann Filter: Apply Gann bar analysis for additional signal filtering
Optional Buy Sets ATL: Option to set ATL reference point when buy signals occur
Visual Debug: Detailed labels showing signal parameters and values
Usage Instructions
Apply to Chart: Use on any timeframe (recommended: 1D or higher for better signal quality)
Risk Management: Adjust thresholds based on your risk tolerance and market volatility
Signal Analysis: Monitor debug labels for detailed signal information and validation
Signal Logic
Buy signals are blocked when ATH increases to prevent buying at peaks
Sell signals are blocked when ATL decreases to prevent selling at lows
This ensures signals only trigger on subsequent bars, not the same bar that establishes new reference points
Buy Signals:
Calculate drop percentage from ATH to buy signal source
Trigger when drop reaches threshold increments (10%, 20%, 30%, etc.)
Always blocked on ATH bars to prevent buying at peaks
Optional: Also blocked on up/outside bars when Gann filter enabled
Sell Signals:
Calculate gain percentage from lowest low to sell signal source
Trigger when gain reaches threshold increments (30%, 60%, 90%, etc.)
Always blocked when ATL decreases to prevent selling at lows
Optional: Also blocked on down bars when Gann filter enabled
Limitations
Designed for trending markets; may generate many signals in sideways/ranging markets
Requires sufficient price movement to be effective
Not suitable for scalping or very short timeframes
Implementation Notes
Signals use optimistic price sources (low for buys, high for sells), these can be configured to be more conservative
Gann filter provides additional signal filtering based on bar types
Debug information available in data window for real-time analysis
Detailed labels on each signal show ATH, lowest low, buy level, sell level, and drop/gain percentages
DCA Anchor (Weekly/Monthly/N Bars) [CHE] What is Dollar-Cost Averaging (DCA)?
DCA is a position-building method where you invest a fixed amount at fixed intervals (e.g., weekly or monthly) regardless of price. Over time, this:
reduces timing risk (you don’t need to guess tops/bottoms),
smooths entry price by buying more units when price is low and fewer when price is high,
keeps decisions simple and repeatable.
Trade-offs:
You’ll never catch the exact bottom.
In strong uptrends, lump-sum can outperform.
Fees matter if you buy very frequently.
Simple math:
Qty bought at time t = `amount / price_t` (net of fees if fees are not “on top”).
Total qty = sum of all buys.
Average price (cost basis) = `total invested / total qty`.
Equity = `total qty last price`.
P\&L = `equity − total invested` (and `%` = `P&L / total invested`).
DCA Anchor (Weekly/Monthly/N Bars)
Purpose: automate scheduled DCA buys on chart data, optionally add extra buys on drawdowns, track stats, and fire alerts.
Core features
Schedules:
1. Every N bars,
2. Weekly (first bar of a new week),
3. Monthly (first bar of a new month).
A Start time input gates when the logic begins.
Fees model:
Fee on top: you pay `amount + fee` in cash; quantity = `amount / close`.
Fee from amount: fee is deducted from the amount; quantity is smaller, cash outlay equals `amount`.
Optional drawdown buys:
Trigger when `close ≤ avgCost (1 − ddPct/100)`.
Controls: drawdown % threshold, multiplier (extra size vs. base amount), and cooldown in bars.
State & metrics: tracks total invested, total quantity, average price, equity, P\&L (abs/%).
Visuals:
Line plot of Average Price.
Buy labels at execution bars (plan and drawdown).
Compact table (positionable) with key stats (trades, invested, qty, avg price, equity, P\&L).
Alerts:
Plan Buy (Bar Close) and Drawdown Buy (Bar Close) — robust, non-repainting.
Optional Intrabar Preview alerts for early heads-up (can fire before bar close).
How to use it (quick start)
1. Add to chart → Inputs:
Buy frequency: pick Every N bars, Weekly, or Monthly.
Start time: date from which buys may begin.
Buy amount: fixed cash per planned buy.
Fees % and Fee on top? to match your broker/exchange model.
(Optional) Enable drawdown buy, set threshold %, multiplier, and cooldown.
Toggle Show buy labels and Show stats table.
2. Alerts (recommended):
Use “DCA Plan Buy (Bar Close)” and/or “DCA Drawdown Buy (Bar Close)” with Once per bar close.
If you need early signals, enable Intrabar pre-alerts and add the two Intrabar Preview alerts with Once per bar.
3. Interpretation:
The yellow line is your average price.
Green/orange markers show plan buys and drawdown buys.
The table summarizes total trades, invested capital, quantity, average price, current equity, and P\&L.
Practical notes
All executions occur at bar close by default to avoid intrabar repainting.
Weekly/monthly roll depends on the symbol’s exchange calendar.
Backtest realism: no slippage, no partial fills. Fees are modeled as configured.
If you buy very frequently, consider higher “N” or weekly/monthly to keep fees under control.
If you want, I can tailor the defaults (amount, fee model, drawdown rules) to your typical markets and timeframes.

Adaptive MVRV & RSI Strategy V6 (Dynamic Thresholds)Strategy Explanation
This is an advanced Dollar-Cost Averaging (DCA) strategy for Bitcoin that aims to adapt to long-term market cycles and changing volatility. Instead of relying on fixed buy/sell signals, it uses a dynamic, weighted approach based on a combination of on-chain data and classic momentum.
Core Components:
Dual-Indicator Signal: The strategy combines two powerful indicators for a more robust signal:
MVRV Ratio: An on-chain metric to identify when Bitcoin is fundamentally over or undervalued relative to its historical cost basis.
Weekly RSI: A classic momentum indicator to gauge long-term market strength and identify overbought/oversold conditions.
Dynamic, Self-Adjusting Thresholds: The core innovation of this strategy is that it avoids fixed thresholds (e.g., "sell when RSI is 70"). Instead, the buy and sell zones are dynamically calculated based on a long-term (2-year) moving average and standard deviation of each indicator. This allows the strategy to automatically adapt to Bitcoin's decreasing volatility and changing market structure over time.
Weighted DCA (Scaling In & Out): The strategy doesn't just buy or sell a fixed amount. The size of its trades is scaled based on conviction:
Buying: As the MVRV and RSI fall deeper into their "undervalued" zones, the percentage of available cash used for each purchase increases.
Selling: As the indicators rise further into "overvalued" territory, the percentage of the current position sold also increases.
This creates an adaptive system that systematically accumulates during periods of fear and distributes during periods of euphoria, with the intensity of its actions directly tied to the extremity of market conditions.
Ticker Pulse Meter BasicPairs nicely with the Contrarian 100 MA located here:
and the Enhanced Stock Ticker with 50MA vs 200MA located here:
Description
The Ticker Pulse Meter Basic is a dynamic Pine Script v6 indicator designed to provide traders with a visual representation of a stock’s price position relative to its short-term and long-term ranges, enabling clear entry and exit signals for long-only trading strategies. By calculating three normalized metrics—Percent Above Long & Above Short, Percent Above Long & Below Short, and Percent Below Long & Below Short—this indicator offers a unique "pulse" of market sentiment, plotted as stacked area charts in a separate pane. With customizable lookback periods, thresholds, and signal plotting options, it empowers traders to identify optimal entry points and profit-taking levels. The indicator leverages Pine Script’s force_overlay feature to plot signals on either the main price chart or the indicator pane, making it versatile for various trading styles.
Key Features
Pulse Meter Metrics:
Computes three percentages based on short-term (default: 50 bars) and long-term (default: 200 bars) lookback periods:
Percent Above Long & Above Short: Measures price strength when above both short and long ranges (green area).
Percent Above Long & Below Short: Indicates mixed momentum (orange area).
Percent Below Long & Below Short: Signals weakness when below both ranges (red area).
Flexible Signal Plotting:
Toggle between plotting entry (blue dots) and exit (white dots) signals on the main price chart (location.abovebar/belowbar) or in the indicator pane (location.top/bottom) using the Plot Signals on Main Chart option.
Entry/Exit Logic:
Long Entry: Triggered when Percent Above Long & Above Short crosses above the high threshold (default: 20%) and Percent Below Long & Below Short is below the low threshold (default: 40%).
Long Exit: Triggered when Percent Above Long & Above Short crosses above the profit-taking level (default: 95%).
Visual Enhancements:
Plots stacked area charts with semi-transparent colors (green, orange, red) for intuitive trend analysis.
Displays threshold lines for entry (high/low) and profit-taking levels.
Includes a ticker and timeframe table in the top-right corner for quick reference.
Alert Conditions: Supports alerts for long entry and exit signals, integrable with TradingView’s alert system for automated trading.
Technical Innovation: Combines normalized price metrics with Pine Script v6’s force_overlay for seamless signal integration on the price chart or indicator pane.
Technical Details
Calculation Logic:
Uses confirmed bars (barstate.isconfirmed) to calculate metrics, ensuring reliability.
Short-term percentage: (close - lowest(low, lookback_short)) / (highest(high, lookback_short) - lowest(low, lookback_short)).
Long-term percentage: (close - lowest(low, lookback_long)) / (highest(high, lookback_long) - lowest(low, lookback_long)).
Derived metrics:
pct_above_long_above_short = (pct_above_long * pct_above_short) * 100.
pct_above_long_below_short = (pct_above_long * (1 - pct_above_short)) * 100.
pct_below_long_below_short = ((1 - pct_above_long) * (1 - pct_above_short)) * 100.
Signal Plotting:
Entry signals (long_entry) use ta.crossover to detect when pct_above_long_above_short crosses above entryThresholdhigh and pct_below_long_below_short is below entryThresholdlow.
Exit signals (long_exit) use ta.crossover for pct_above_long_above_short crossing above profitTake.
Signals are plotted as tiny circles with force_overlay=true for main chart or standard plotting for the indicator pane.
Performance Considerations: Optimized for efficiency by calculating metrics only on confirmed bars and using lightweight plotting functions.
How to Use
Add to Chart:
Copy the script into TradingView’s Pine Editor and apply it to your chart.
Configure Settings:
Short Lookback Period: Adjust the short-term lookback (default: 50 bars) for sensitivity.
Long Lookback Period: Set the long-term lookback (default: 200 bars) for broader context.
Entry Thresholds: Modify high (default: 20%) and low (default: 40%) thresholds for entry conditions.
Profit Take Level: Set the exit threshold (default: 95%) for profit-taking.
Plot Signals on Main Chart: Check to display signals on the price chart; uncheck for the indicator pane.
Interpret Signals:
Long Entry: Blue dots indicate a strong bullish setup when price is high relative to both lookback ranges and weakness is low.
Long Exit: White dots signal profit-taking when strength reaches overbought levels.
Use the stacked area charts to assess trend strength and momentum.
Set Alerts:
Create alerts for Long Entry and Long Exit conditions using TradingView’s alert system.
Customize Visuals:
Adjust colors and thresholds via TradingView’s settings for better visibility.
The ticker table displays the symbol and timeframe in the top-right corner.
Example Use Cases
Swing Trading: Use entry signals to capture short-term bullish moves within a broader uptrend, exiting at profit-taking levels.
Trend Confirmation: Monitor the green area (Percent Above Long & Above Short) for sustained bullish momentum.
Market Sentiment Analysis: Use the stacked areas to gauge bullish vs. bearish sentiment across timeframes.
Notes
Testing: Backtest the indicator on your chosen market and timeframe to validate its effectiveness.
Compatibility: Built for Pine Script v6 and tested on TradingView as of June 20, 2025.
Limitations: Signals are long-only; adapt the script for short strategies if needed.
Enhancements: Consider adding a histogram for the difference between metrics or additional thresholds for nuanced trading.

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

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

📊 Real-World Examples
See the indicator in action across different investment types:
Stable Index Investments:
AMEX:SPY (SPDR S&P 500) - Shows steady compound growth with standard CAGR calculations
Classic DCA success story: $60K initial + $500/month starting 2020. The indicator shows SPY's historical 10%+ returns, demonstrating how consistent broad market investing builds wealth over time. Notice the smooth theoretical growth line vs actual performance tracking.
MIL:VUAA (Vanguard S&P 500 UCITS) - Shows both data limitation and solution approaches
Data limitation example: VUAA shows "Manual (Auto Failed)" and "No Data" when default 10-year historical setting exceeds available data. The indicator gracefully falls back to manual percentage input while maintaining all DCA calculations and projections.
MIL:VUAA (Vanguard S&P 500 UCITS) - European ETF with successful 5-year auto calculation
Solution demonstration: By adjusting historical period to 5 years (matching available data), VUAA auto calculation works perfectly. Shows how users can optimize settings for newer assets. European market exposure with EUR denomination, demonstrating DCA effectiveness across different markets and currencies.
NYSE:BRK.B (Berkshire Hathaway) - Quality value investment with Warren Buffett's proven track record
Value investing approach: Berkshire Hathaway's legendary performance through DCA lens. The indicator demonstrates how quality companies compound wealth over decades. Lower volatility than tech stocks = standard CAGR calculations used.
High-Volatility Growth Stocks:
NASDAQ:NVDA (NVIDIA Corporation) - Demonstrates volatility-adjusted calculations for extreme price swings
High-volatility example: NVIDIA's explosive AI boom creates extreme years that trigger volatility detection. The indicator automatically switches to "Median (High Vol): 50%" calculations for conservative projections, protecting against unrealistic future estimates based on outlier performance periods.
NASDAQ:TSLA (Tesla) - Shows how 10-year analysis can stabilize volatile tech stocks

SmartScale Envelope DCA This is a Dollar-Cost Averaging (DCA) long strategy that buys when price dips below a moving average envelope and adds to the position in a stepwise, risk-controlled way. It uses up to 8 buy-ins, applies a cooldown between entries, and exits based on either a take profit from average entry price or a stop loss. Backtest range limits trades to the last 365 days for backtest control.
All input settings can and should be adjusted to the chart, as volatility in price action varies. Simply go into the inputs settings, and start from the top and move down to get better backtest results. Moving from the top down has been proven to give the best results. Then, move to properties and set your order size, pyramiding, and so on. It may be necessary to then fine tune your adjustments a second time to dial it in.
Works well on 1 hour time frames and in volatility.
Happy Trading!
