Viper Oscillator🔶 Overview
The Mkt-Viper Oscillator is a specialized Kinetic Momentum Engine engineered for Precision Timing and energy measurement. It serves as a high-fidelity market oscilloscope, designed to decode the raw velocity of price action and identify high-probability entry and exit points with enhanced clarity.
Markets move with varying degrees of force and resistance. Mkt-Viper Oscillator analyzes this behavior by utilizing a Kinetic Momentum Model. It measures Price Displacement against Market Viscosity (a dynamic resistance filter) to determine the true energy behind a move. By filtering out low-energy "drift," this approach allows traders to gauge the true strength of a trend and identify moments of momentum exhaustion or renewal.
🔶 What makes Mkt-Viper Oscillator unique?
The Viper Oscillator distinguishes itself through its Multi-Dimensional Calculation Matrix. Rather than relying on a single data source, it fuses Price Action, Volume Flow, and Volatility (Z-Score) into a single output.
The core engine measures Market Inertia. By applying a "Denoising Kernel" and recursive smoothing algorithms, it filters out erratic ticks to visualize the smooth, hydrodynamic flow of money entering and exiting the asset, providing a clearer picture of market intent.
Main Features
🔶 The Core Oscillator
The central Line or Ribbon of the oscillator represents the "Engine Core." It visualizes the battle between momentum (Torque) and resistance (Drag).
Visual Modes:
Standard:
Uses a multi-layered rendering technique (Core + Outer Glow) to create a crisp, high-visibility "Neon" line.
Ribbon Mode:
Displays a Signal Line cross system. When the fast line crosses the slow "Trail," it signals a micro-shift in momentum.
Momentum Flips:
The oscillator plots discrete Circles on the ribbon when the slope flips direction. These mark the precise moment momentum shifts from expansion to contraction.
🔶 Kinetic Exhaustion Zones
Standard oscillators often use static lines (like 70/30) that provide little context on trend strength. The Viper Oscillator replaces these with dynamic Kinetic Exhaustion Zones.
The Logic:
These zones represent the limits of "Market Torque." Instead of a binary On/Off signal, the zones function as a gradient stress field.
Visuals (Adaptive Glow):
The system utilizes a programmed opacity gradient.
Fade In:
The zones begin to materialize when the Core passes a certain threshhold (Moderate Momentum).
Maximum Glow:
As the oscillator begins to travel deeper beyond the threshold (Peak Torque), the zones glow with maximum intensity, signaling that the move is becoming statistically stretched or overextended.
Usage:
In a strong trend, the oscillator can "pin" inside the glow zone. This is a sign of immense strength, not a reversal. The reversal signal occurs when the Core exits the glow zone and returns toward the mean.
🔶 Z-Score Velocity Line
Floating above the main oscillator is the Velocity Line (Thin Line). This is not just a second oscillator; it is a volatility-adjusted Z-Score.
The Logic:
It measures the speed of price change relative to the current volatility conditions.
Usage:
When the Velocity Line spikes aggressively while the main Oscillator moves slowly, it is an early warning sign for a potential pullback.
🔶 Money Flow Wave (Background)
The background of the oscillator features a subtle, filled "Wave." This is the Money Flow Index (MFI) overlay.
The Logic:
This layer tracks volume-weighted price action. It allows you to see Divergences between Price and Volume.
Usage:
If the Kinetic Core (Price Momentum) is making a Higher High, but the Money Flow Wave (Volume) is making a Lower Low, it indicates a "Hollow Rally" lacking institutional backing.
🔶 Sigma Sniper Signals
The system constantly monitors Volume Volatility using a 3.0 Sigma (Standard Deviation) threshold.
Visuals:
When a volume spike exceeds 3 standard deviations from the mean (a statistical anomaly), a small "⌃" or "⌄" symbol appears at the top or bottom of the panel.
Meaning:
This marks a potential Volume Climax. It signifies potential capitulation (panic selling) or euphoria (fomo buying). These points are possibly probable reversal areas.
🔶 Trend Power Bar
Located at the very bottom of the pane is the Trend Power Bar. This is a binary filter designed to keep you on the right side of the macro flow.
The Logic:
It uses a "Linkage Kernel" (Correlation Coefficient) to measure the alignment of the trend.
Green:
Macro Trend is Bullish.
Red:
Macro Trend is Bearish.
Opacity:
The bar becomes transparent when the trend is weakening, warning you of potential consolidation.
🔶 Fractal Divergences
Timing reversals requires spotting the disconnect between price and momentum. The Divergence Engine uses Fractal Geometry to detect these setups automatically.
Regular Divergence:
Draws lines connecting peaks or valleys where Price pushes further but Momentum fails to follow. These are potential reversal signals.
🔶 Synthetic Resolution Scaler (MTF)
Traders often need to see higher-timeframe momentum without changing charts. The Resolution Scaler allows you to project higher-timeframe data onto your current chart.
How it works:
Instead of using repainting request.security calls, the script mathematically scales the internal lookback periods (Lengths) to simulate higher timeframes (e.g., viewing Hourly momentum on a 15-minute chart) while maintaining smooth, real-time updates.
🔶 Visual Intelligence (Theme Engine)
Visual clarity is essential for rapid decision-making. A cluttered or poorly contrasted chart can lead to cognitive fatigue. To address this, the Viper Oscillator features a global Color Theme Engine that instantly synchronizes every element of the suite—signals, candles, clouds, and text—to a unified palette.
The Presets:
The system comes with five professionally designed profiles to suit different trading environments and lighting conditions:
Viper Original: High-contrast Neon Green & Purple (Optimized for Dark Mode).
Classic: Standard Green/Red configuration for traditionalists.
Cool Blues: A calming Blue/Violet palette designed to reduce emotional reactivity.
Ember & Ash: High-warmth Orange/Slate contrast.
Monochrome: Grayscale/Silver logic for distraction-free structural analysis.
Customization:
Traders with specific branding requirements or accessibility needs (such as color blindness) can select "Custom Theme." This unlocks distinct color inputs, allowing you to define your own specific Bullish, Bearish, and Neutral colors that instantly propagate across the entire indicator suite.
🔶 How to use: The "Timing" Workflow
Mkt-Viper Oscillator is designed to filter out premature entries. Rather than catching falling knives, we recommend a workflow based on Momentum Structure:
Strategy: Momentum Continuation (The HL/LH Setup)
The highest probability entries occur when momentum resets but the trend structure remains intact.
Trend Context:
Ensure the Trend Power Bar is Green (Bullish) or Red (Bearish).
Wait for Structure:
Do not buy the first dip. Wait for the Kinetic Core to print a Higher Low (HL) in a bullish trend or a Lower High (LH) in a bearish trend. This "Momentum Stair-Step" confirms that counter-trend energy has been exhausted.
The Trigger:
Enter when a Momentum Flip Circle (Dot) appears after this Higher Low or Lower High is established.
Exit:
Take profits when the Velocity Line spikes into the extremes or a Divergence line appears.
While powerful as a standalone unit, this engine is mathematically calibrated to pair with the Mkt-Viper Pro (Trend) and Mkt-Viper Edge (Structure) indicators.
Important:
This indicator is intended to be used with additional confluences and key areas. It is not recommended to blindly buy or sell the momentum flip dots.
🔶 Realistic Expectations & Methodology
Oscillator Lag:
All oscillators are derivative of price and inherently possess some lag. The "Kinetic" math reduces this lag significantly, but it cannot eliminate it entirely as it must process past data.
Signal Confirmation:
The "Flip Circles" and Reversal signals are confirmed on candle close. While they do not repaint history, they will wait for the bar to close before locking in. This is a safety feature to prevent fake-outs.
Trending vs. Ranging:
Oscillators perform best in Ranging markets or during Pullbacks in a trend. Using Overbought/Oversold signals blindly during a parabolic trend is dangerous, as momentum can stay "Overbought" for extended periods. Always check the Trend Power Bar context.

eBacktesting - Learning: RSI DivergenceseBacktesting - Learning: RSI Divergences is meant to train your eye to spot when a trend is losing momentum before price fully turns.
How to study it (step-by-step)
1. Start with the trend
- First decide if price is generally trending up or down (higher highs / higher lows vs lower highs / lower lows).
- Divergences matter most after a trend has been running for a while.
2. Look for the “mismatch”
- Bearish divergence: price prints higher highs, but RSI prints lower highs.
- This often shows up near the end of a strong bullish run, when buyers are still pushing price up but with less momentum.
- Bullish divergence: price prints lower lows, but RSI prints higher lows.
- This can show up near the end of a bearish move, when selling pressure is fading.
3. Treat divergence as a warning, not an entry
- The key lesson: divergence often signals trend weakness, not an instant reversal.
- After a divergence appears, study what happens next: stalling, ranging, a pullback, or a full reversal.
4. Add simple confirmation
- Practice waiting for something obvious after the divergence:
a break of a small support/resistance level,
a shift in swing structure,
or a clear rejection candle from a key area.
- This helps you avoid taking every divergence as a trade signal.
5. Use it inside eBacktesting (best practice)
- Replay the chart and pause on each divergence mark.
- Log:
Where it happened (after a long run or in the middle of chop?),
Whether price stalled first or reversed immediately,
What confirmation appeared (if any),
The best “invalidation” idea (what would prove you wrong?).
- Over time you’ll see which divergences are meaningful for your market and session, and which ones are noise.
These indicators are built to pair perfectly with the eBacktesting extension, where traders can practice these concepts step-by-step. Backtesting concepts visually like this is one of the fastest ways to learn, build confidence, and improve trading performance.

NeuraEdge Delta Flow PRO - Institutional Order Flow AnalysisOVERVIEW
Delta Flow Pro is a closed-source order flow analysis indicator that reveals the hidden battle between buyers and sellers. While price shows you what happened, Delta Flow shows you who won the fight.
Traditional volume indicators only measure transaction size - they tell you how much traded, but not the directional conviction behind those trades. Delta Flow Pro uses proprietary price action algorithms to estimate buying versus selling pressure on every bar, exposing institutional accumulation and distribution patterns that remain invisible on standard charts.
The indicator analyzes three critical dimensions:
Bar-by-bar delta (who controlled each candle)
Cumulative Volume Delta (net institutional positioning over time)
Divergence patterns (early warning when pressure shifts before price confirms)
CORE METHODOLOGY
Delta Calculation Approach:
The indicator uses three selectable estimation methods to analyze intra-bar order flow:
Price Action Method - Calculates delta based on where price closes within the bar's range. A close near the high indicates buying pressure; near the low indicates selling pressure. Formula: ((close - low) / range - 0.5) × 2 × volume
Candle Body Method - Weights delta by the body-to-range ratio, emphasizing bars where one side dominated completely. Uses body size as a conviction metric multiplied by directional volume.
Wick Weighted Method - Incorporates upper and lower wick analysis, where large lower wicks indicate buying absorption and large upper wicks indicate selling rejection. Combines base directional bias with wick-derived pressure.
All methods are normalized to a 0-100% scale for consistent interpretation across different instruments and timeframes.
Cumulative Volume Delta (CVD):
The indicator maintains a running cumulative sum of delta values to track net institutional positioning over time. CVD reveals accumulation (rising) or distribution (falling) patterns that may not be visible in price alone. Users can configure auto-reset periods (0-100 bars) to focus CVD on recent activity or disable reset for long-term tracking.
Divergence Detection:
The indicator identifies structural divergences between price pivots and delta pivots using configurable lookback periods (2-15 bars). Bearish divergence occurs when price makes higher highs while delta makes lower highs, suggesting weakening buying pressure. Bullish divergence occurs when price makes lower lows while delta makes higher lows, suggesting weakening selling pressure.
WHY CLOSED SOURCE:
The proprietary calculation methodology represents original research into optimal weighting factors, normalization techniques, and divergence sensitivity calibrations developed through extensive back testing across multiple asset classes. The closed-source protection prevents dilution of the methodology while ensuring consistent signal quality for all users.
Unlike open-source implementations using basic volume × direction formulas, Delta Flow Pro employs:
Adaptive normalization that adjusts to instrument volatility
Multi-method delta estimation with context-aware switching logic
Refined pivot detection algorithms to minimize false divergence signals
Volume-safety protocols to handle zero-volume bars and data gaps
TECHNICAL JUSTIFICATION FOR PAID ACCESS:
While moving averages, RSI, and Bollinger Bands are well-documented public domain concepts, institutional order flow analysis requires:
Proprietary weighting systems to estimate bid/ask imbalance from OHLCV data
Advanced normalization to make delta comparable across vastly different instruments
Custom divergence logic that filters noise while maintaining sensitivity
Extensive calibration to balance false positives against missed signals
Data Feed Alternative:
Traditional order flow analysis requires expensive Level 2 market data subscriptions, DOM (Depth of Market) feeds, or institutional trading terminals (often $100-500+ monthly per exchange). Delta Flow Pro provides order flow insights using standard OHLCV price and volume data, eliminating the need for additional external data feed costs while delivering actionable institutional pressure analysis.
The indicator provides value beyond standard technical analysis tools by offering retail traders proxy access to order flow concepts typically requiring premium market data subscriptions.
VISUAL COMPONENTS
Delta Histogram (Main Panel):
Vertical bars representing normalized delta strength (-100% to +100%)
Green = buying pressure, Red = selling pressure
Brightness indicates conviction (bright = strong delta above threshold)
Allows instant visual identification of pressure shifts
CVD Line (Blue overlay):
Cumulative running total of delta values
Reveals multi-bar institutional positioning trends
Divergence from price indicates potential exhaustion
Divergence Markers:
Green triangles (bottom) = Bullish divergence detected
Red triangles (top) = Bearish divergence detected
Plotted at the pivot bar for precise timing
Real-Time Dashboard:
Current delta state and strength percentage
CVD trend direction
20-bar statistical summary (buy/sell distribution)
PRACTICAL APPLICATION
Delta Flow Pro transforms how you interpret market action by revealing the pressure behind price movements.
Signal Confirmation:
Use delta as a filter for entries from other indicators. If your primary system generates a long signal but delta is strongly negative, it suggests selling pressure may invalidate the setup. Conversely, bullish delta confirms buying conviction behind the move.
Exhaustion Detection:
The most powerful application - spotting when price and pressure diverge. Price making new highs with negative delta indicates weak hands pushing price while institutions sell into strength. Price making new lows with positive delta indicates smart money absorption. These exhaustion patterns often precede major reversals.
Divergence Trading:
Divergence signals often precede reversals by several bars, providing early warning. Wait for price confirmation (structure break, reversal candlestick) before entering based on divergence alone.
Conviction Measurement:
Strong delta (above user-defined threshold, default 70%) indicates high probability the current move continues. Weak delta near zero suggests choppy conditions; consider reducing position size or avoiding entries.
SETTINGS & CUSTOMIZATION
Delta Calculation:

BEST PRACTICES
Recommended Usage:
Works on all timeframes; most reliable on 15-minute and higher
Best results on liquid instruments (major forex pairs, index futures, high-volume stocks)
Use as confirmation with structure-based or momentum strategies
Monitor CVD trend for bigger-picture context
Limitations:
Not a standalone trading system; designed for confluence
Less reliable on thinly traded instruments with erratic volume
Avoid trading when delta oscillates near zero (indecision)
This is an estimation model, not true tick-by-tick order flow data
IMPORTANT DISCLOSURES
This indicator estimates order flow based on price action and volume. TradingView does not provide the tick-by-tick bid/ask data required for true institutional order flow tracking. Delta Flow Pro serves as a highly effective proxy for pressure analysis within these data limitations.

OzCobbs MACD-CCI with DivergenceOzCobbs MACD-CCI with Divergence combines the most useful behaviour of MACD and CCI into a single adaptive indicator, designed to highlight true momentum extremes rather than fixed, arbitrary levels.
This tool is built for traders looking for a Goldilocks solution, not too simple, not over-engineered, just enough structure to reveal when market behaviour becomes abnormal.
Instead of static overbought or oversold zones, both MACD and CCI use statistically derived outlier bands that automatically adjust to the instrument, timeframe, and volatility regime. This makes extremes meaningful, comparable, and consistent across markets.
The indicator can be used in two ways:
Merged mode, where MACD and CCI are overlaid into one cohesive view of momentum and stretch.
Split mode, by adding the indicator twice, setting one instance to MACD and the other to CCI, allowing focused analysis of each component.
Optional CCI divergence detection is also included to help identify momentum exhaustion at statistically significant extremes, without clutter or hidden divergence noise.
The default settings are great, but it is fully customisable and adaptable to suit individual trading styles - simply tweak, turn on/off whatever you feel is needed to improve YOU.

JRockets MACDThis is my favorite indicator, that I use as one of my conformations before entering a trade in the 15M timeframe This MACD is tailor made by me to work efficient, consistent, and effectively. I back tested tons of times, it helps if you're entering too early, late and even get faked out. The MACD is by far my favorite and one and only indicator, and here's why. The MACD contains 2 EMA lines where it gives me a signal on when to buy or sell. If the Blue line crosses the red line on the bottom of the indicator its giving buy signals as long as the blue line stays on top, and when the red line crosses the blue line on top of the indicator its giving sell signals as long as the redline stay on top. Be sure to pay attention to the candle stick patterns as well and has to be around key levels. What makes this a better signal as well, the MACD has a built-in momentum hologram, some see it as overbought/undersold, or volume indicator. By combining the momentum hologram with your buy/sell ema will prevent you from entering a trade in the wrong area. The momentum hologram is almost self-explanatory, when there is buying pressure, the hologram turns blue, the darker the blue the stronger the momentum as well as the length of the hologram, once is start losing momentum it starts to turn to a lighter blue. Eventually a light red to a solid red showing momentum for a strong sell, this works vice versa. Combing all that at once and built instincts it becomes very effective. You can also use the EMA signals as divergence, but I don't really trade with divergence but could possibly give you conformation. Using the MACD is like having 3-4 indicators in one with all of them working fluent together. I have the MACD locked on the 15M timeframe because that's where it works more accurately. You can make the EMA lines a bit thicker to be easier to see. I would change the MACD visible for the 15M timeframe only or 1M to 1H timeframe. I hope this indicator helps you, as it did for me. You can simply click add on your charts on the top left to get this free indicator. Peace out and enjoy! Be sure to share, this indicator with your friends as it may help someone out.

The Adaptive MACD Divergences Indicator is an advanced technical analysis tool that combines traditional MACD analysis with revolutionary R-squared (R²) correlation-based adaptation and sophisticated divergence detection. Unlike standard MACD indicators, this system automatically adjusts its sensitivity based on market conditions, providing cleaner signals in ranging markets and faster responses during strong trends.
Key Features
1. R² Adaptive Technology
Automatically measures market trend strength using R-squared correlation
Self-adjusts between responsive (trending) and smooth (choppy) modes
Reduces false signals without manual parameter changes
2. Enhanced Visual System
Gradient color-coded lines showing momentum strength at a glance
Beautiful shadow histogram with depth effects
Real-time R² value display showing adaptation strength

Works on all timeframes and instruments
How the Adaptive R² System Works
Understanding R-Squared (R²)
R² measures how well price follows a linear trend, ranging from 0 to 1:
R² = 0.8-1.0: Strong linear trend → MACD becomes MORE responsive
R² = 0.3-0.7: Moderate trend → Balanced MACD behavior
R² = 0.0-0.3: No trend/choppy → MACD becomes SMOOTHER
Adaptation Benefits
In Trending Markets: Catches moves early, stays with trends longer
In Ranging Markets: Filters out noise, reduces whipsaws
During Transitions: Automatically adjusts as market changes
The indicator displays the current R² value with color coding:
🟢 Green: Strong trend detected (R² > 0.7)
🟡 Yellow: Moderate trend (R² 0.3-0.7)
🔴 Red: Choppy/ranging market (R² < 0.3)

Harmonic Liquidity Waves [JOAT]Harmonic Liquidity Waves
Overview
Harmonic Liquidity Waves is an open-source oscillator indicator that combines multiple volume-based analysis techniques into a unified liquidity flow framework. It integrates VWAP calculations, Chaikin Money Flow (CMF), Money Flow Index (MFI), and Klinger Volume Oscillator (KVO) with custom harmonic wave calculations to provide a comprehensive view of volume dynamics and money flow.
What This Indicator Does
The indicator calculates and displays:
Liquidity Flow - Volume-weighted price movement accumulated over a lookback period
Harmonic Wave - Multi-depth smoothed oscillator derived from liquidity flow
Chaikin Money Flow (CMF) - Classic accumulation/distribution indicator
Money Flow Index (MFI) - Volume-weighted RSI showing buying/selling pressure
Klinger Volume Oscillator (KVO) - Trend-volume relationship indicator
Wave Interference - Combined constructive/destructive wave patterns
Volume Profile POC - Point of Control from simplified volume distribution
How It Works
The core liquidity flow calculation tracks volume-weighted price changes:
calculateLiquidityFlow(series float vol, series float price, simple int period) =>
float priceChange = ta.change(price)
float volumeFlow = vol * math.sign(priceChange)
// Accumulated over period using buffer array
float avgFlow = flowSum / period
avgFlow
The harmonic oscillator applies multi-depth smoothing:
harmonicOscillator(series float flow, simple int depth, simple int period) =>
float harmonic = 0.0
for i = 1 to depth
float wave = ta.ema(flow, period * i) / i
harmonic += wave
harmonic / depth
CMF measures accumulation/distribution using the Money Flow Multiplier:
float mfm = ((close - low) - (high - close)) / (high - low)
float mfv = mfm * vol
float cmf = ta.sum(mfv, period) / ta.sum(vol, period) * 100
Signal Generation
Liquidity shift signals occur when:
Bullish Shift: Smoothed wave crosses above signal line
Bearish Shift: Smoothed wave crosses below signal line
Strong signals require volume indicator confirmation:
Strong Bull: Bullish shift + CMF > 0 + MFI > 50 + KVO > 0
Strong Bear: Bearish shift + CMF < 0 + MFI < 50 + KVO < 0
Divergence detection compares price pivots with liquidity wave pivots to identify potential reversals.

QMF- Market Structure & Signal Suite [BullByte]QUANTUM MOMENTUM FUSION - Market Structure and Signal Suite
OVERVIEW
Quantum Momentum Fusion is a comprehensive market analysis framework built around a multi-dimensional momentum oscillator. This indicator was designed to give traders a complete analytical workspace in a single tool, combining momentum measurement, market structure identification, trendline analysis, divergence detection, and multi-timeframe context into one unified system.
The core philosophy behind QMF is that successful trading decisions come from understanding multiple aspects of market behavior simultaneously, not from relying on any single indicator or signal. The oscillator serves as the analytical foundation, and every other component builds upon it to create a complete picture of current market conditions.
This description will walk through each component of the indicator, explaining what it measures, why that information matters, and how to interpret what you see on the chart. Whether you are an experienced trader familiar with oscillator analysis or newer to technical indicators, each section aims to make the concepts accessible and practical.
THE QUANTUM ENGINE: UNDERSTANDING THE CORE OSCILLATOR (why its original and not a mashup)
At the heart of this indicator is the Quantum Momentum Fusion oscillator, displayed in its own pane below the price chart. Unlike traditional oscillators that measure a single aspect of price behavior, the QMF oscillator synthesizes four distinct market dimensions into one unified reading.
WHAT IS AN OSCILLATOR
For those less familiar with the term, an oscillator is a technical indicator that fluctuates between defined boundaries, typically showing whether an asset is experiencing strong buying pressure, strong selling pressure, or neutral conditions. The QMF oscillator moves between 0 and 100, with 50 representing the neutral midpoint.
When the oscillator is high (above 70), it suggests the market has experienced significant upward momentum and may be approaching exhaustion. When low (below 30), it suggests the market has experienced significant downward momentum and may be due for a bounce. The space between these extremes represents normal market fluctuation.
THE FOUR DIMENSIONS
What makes the QMF oscillator different from standard momentum indicators is that it combines four separate measurements into its calculation. Each dimension captures a different aspect of market behavior:
VELOCITY DIMENSION
This measures how quickly momentum itself is changing. Think of it like acceleration in a car. Knowing the car is moving forward (direction) is useful, but knowing whether the driver is pressing the accelerator or the brake (acceleration) tells you what is likely to happen next. The velocity dimension calculates the rate of change of the rate of change, providing early warning when momentum is about to shift direction. In practical terms, this can show momentum weakening before price actually reverses.
Why it matters: Price can continue in one direction for a while even after the underlying momentum starts to fade. By measuring acceleration, you can identify potential turning points earlier than with simple momentum indicators.
How it appears: This dimension is calculated internally and combined with the others. You do not see it separately, but its effect shows in the oscillator responding earlier to momentum shifts.
VOLUME DIMENSION
This measures price movement weighted by trading volume. A price move accompanied by high volume has different significance than the same price move on low volume. High volume suggests conviction and participation from larger traders. Low volume suggests the move may lack follow-through.
The volume dimension multiplies price change by a volume ratio (current volume compared to average volume), giving greater weight to moves that have volume confirmation behind them.
Why it matters: Volume often precedes price. Strong volume on a move suggests institutional participation and increases the probability that the move will continue. Weak volume on a move suggests it may be easily reversed.
How it appears: Moves with strong volume conviction will push the oscillator more definitively, while low-volume moves will have muted effect on the reading.
VOLATILITY DIMENSION
This normalizes price movement against the current volatility environment. Markets go through periods of high volatility (large price swings) and low volatility (small price swings). A 1% move during a low volatility period is more significant than a 1% move during a high volatility period.
The volatility dimension divides price change by Average True Range (ATR), which measures typical price range. This tells you whether current movement is significant relative to what is normal for this market right now.
Why it matters: Without volatility normalization, the oscillator would react the same way to all price moves regardless of context. By adjusting for volatility, the oscillator identifies moves that are genuinely significant versus normal noise within the current regime.
How it appears: During quiet markets, smaller price moves can still register as significant if they exceed normal volatility. During volatile markets, the oscillator will not overreact to moves that are within expected range.
SESSION DIMENSION
This tracks where price is positioned relative to the session Volume Weighted Average Price (VWAP). VWAP represents the average price at which trading has occurred during the session, weighted by volume. Institutional traders often use VWAP as a benchmark for fair value.
When price is consistently above VWAP, it suggests buyers are willing to pay above average prices, indicating accumulation. When price is consistently below VWAP, it suggests sellers are accepting below average prices, indicating distribution.
Why it matters: VWAP positioning provides insight into whether institutional traders are likely accumulating or distributing. Price repeatedly returning to and bouncing from VWAP can indicate support, while price repeatedly failing at VWAP can indicate resistance.
How it appears: The session dimension contributes bullish readings when price maintains above VWAP and bearish readings when price maintains below VWAP.
ADAPTIVE WEIGHTING
The four dimensions are combined using configurable weights, and the system can operate in Adaptive Mode. When Adaptive Mode is enabled, the indicator automatically adjusts its sensitivity based on the current volatility regime. During high volatility periods, sensitivity increases to capture larger moves. During low volatility periods, sensitivity decreases to filter out noise.
This means the oscillator adapts to changing market conditions without requiring manual adjustment.
READING THE OSCILLATOR: DISPLAY MODES AND ZONES
The QMF oscillator can be displayed in four different visual formats. Each shows the same underlying data but presents it differently based on trader preference.
ENERGY CANDLES
This mode displays the oscillator as candlestick-style candles. Just as price candles show open, high, low, and close for price, energy candles show these values for the QMF oscillator.
Green candles indicate the oscillator closed higher than it opened (bullish momentum). Red candles indicate the oscillator closed lower than it opened (bearish momentum). The body size shows how much the oscillator moved during the period. Larger bodies indicate stronger momentum conviction.
This format is useful for traders who are comfortable reading candlestick patterns and want to apply similar visual analysis to the oscillator.
QMF LINE
This mode displays the oscillator as a traditional line chart with a signal line overlay. The main QMF line shows current momentum. The signal line is a smoothed average of the QMF that helps identify direction changes.
When the QMF line is above the signal line, momentum is bullish. When below, momentum is bearish. Crossovers between the two lines can indicate momentum shifts.
This format is familiar to traders who use indicators like MACD and prefer clean line-based visualization.
IMPULSE BARS
This mode displays the oscillator as a histogram centered on the 50 midline. Bars above 50 indicate bullish momentum, bars below 50 indicate bearish momentum. Bar height shows momentum strength.
The color intensity changes based on momentum direction. Bars that are increasing in the bullish direction show brighter color. Bars that are decreasing show muted color. This makes it easy to see momentum acceleration and deceleration at a glance.
HEIKIN FLOW
This mode applies Heikin-Ashi smoothing to the energy candles. Heikin-Ashi is a Japanese technique that averages price data to create smoother trends with fewer reversals.
The result is cleaner visual trends that are easier to follow, though with slightly more lag than standard energy candles. This format is useful for identifying sustained momentum moves without getting distracted by minor fluctuations.
OSCILLATOR ZONES
Regardless of display mode, the oscillator pane includes horizontal reference lines that define important zones:
Midline at 50: The neutral point. When the oscillator is above 50, overall momentum is bullish. When below 50, overall momentum is bearish.
Overbought level at 70: When the oscillator crosses above this level, the market is showing strong bullish momentum. However, this also means prices have risen significantly and bearish reversal probability increases the longer the oscillator stays elevated.
Oversold level at 30: When the oscillator crosses below this level, the market is showing strong bearish momentum. However, this also means prices have fallen significantly and bullish reversal probability increases.
Extreme overbought at 85: Maximum bullish exhaustion. At this level, almost all short-term buying pressure has been expended. Reversal probability is high.
Extreme oversold at 15: Maximum bearish exhaustion. At this level, almost all short-term selling pressure has been expended. Reversal probability is high.
Understanding these zones helps you assess the current market condition before looking at any other indicator components.
MARKET STRUCTURE: DYNAMIC SUPPORT AND RESISTANCE
The second major component of the indicator is market structure analysis through dynamic support and resistance levels. Unlike price-based support and resistance, these levels are calculated directly on the oscillator.
WHAT ARE OSCILLATOR-BASED S/R LEVELS
When the QMF oscillator reaches a high point and then reverses lower, that high point becomes a resistance level on the oscillator. When the oscillator reaches a low point and then reverses higher, that low point becomes a support level.
These levels represent momentum thresholds that the market has previously found difficult to exceed. They answer the question: At what momentum reading has the oscillator historically reversed?
WHY THIS MATTERS
Oscillator support and resistance provides different information than price support and resistance. Price S/R tells you where buyers and sellers have previously entered the market. Oscillator S/R tells you what level of momentum the market has been able to sustain.
If the oscillator approaches its resistance level, it suggests momentum is reaching the upper bounds of what has been achievable recently. Either momentum will break through (indicating unusually strong conditions) or it will reverse (indicating normal mean reversion).
Similarly, if the oscillator approaches support, it suggests momentum is reaching exhaustion levels that have previously triggered bounces.
HOW IT APPEARS ON THE CHART
Resistance is displayed as a horizontal red line with a RES label on the oscillator pane. Support is displayed as a horizontal cyan line with a SUP label. These lines update dynamically as new pivots form.
When the oscillator breaks through these levels, markers appear:
R with up arrow: Resistance level broken, indicating unusually strong bullish momentum
S with down arrow: Support level broken, indicating unusually strong bearish momentum
R with checkmark: Resistance held, price rejected at this level
S with checkmark: Support held, price bounced from this level
The dashboard also shows current S/R status: whether the oscillator recently broke resistance, broke support, is currently at resistance, is currently at support, or is in clear space between levels.
AUTOMATED TRENDLINES: MOMENTUM TREND STRUCTURE
The third major component is automated trendline detection on the oscillator. This identifies trending behavior in momentum itself, separate from price trends.
WHAT ARE OSCILLATOR TRENDLINES
Just as you can draw trendlines on a price chart connecting swing lows (uptrend) or swing highs (downtrend), the indicator draws trendlines on the oscillator connecting pivot points.
Support trendlines connect oscillator pivot lows and project forward with a flat or rising slope. These show upward trending momentum where each pullback finds support at a higher level.
Resistance trendlines connect oscillator pivot highs and project forward with a flat or falling slope. These show downward trending momentum where each rally faces resistance at a lower level.
WHY THIS MATTERS
Price trends and momentum trends do not always align. Price can continue making higher highs while momentum makes lower highs, a condition called bearish divergence. Momentum trendlines help visualize this behavior.
When momentum is making higher lows (rising support trendline), it suggests underlying strength even if price is consolidating. When momentum is making lower highs (falling resistance trendline), it suggests underlying weakness even if price is holding.
Breaks of these trendlines often precede price moves. If a falling momentum resistance trendline breaks upward, it suggests bearish pressure is releasing and bullish momentum may follow. If a rising momentum support trendline breaks downward, it suggests bullish pressure is failing and bearish momentum may follow.
HOW IT APPEARS ON THE CHART
Support trendlines appear in blue/cyan, resistance trendlines appear in pink/magenta. Lines extend forward from the most recent pivot point to show projected levels.
Small circle markers can optionally appear at each pivot point used to construct the trendlines, helping you verify the anchor points.
When the oscillator breaks through a trendline, markers appear:
TL with up arrow: Resistance trendline broken upward (bullish breakout)
TL with down arrow: Support trendline broken downward (bearish breakdown)
Trendline strength is calculated based on three factors: how many pivot points validate the line, how recently it formed, and the angle of the slope. Stronger trendlines have more touches, formed recently, and have moderate slopes. You can filter trendlines by strength to show only the most significant ones.
Optional trendline zones can display a shaded area around each trendline rather than just a single line, showing a zone of influence rather than a precise level.
DIVERGENCE: WHEN PRICE AND MOMENTUM DISAGREE
The fourth major component is divergence detection, which identifies discrepancies between price action and oscillator behavior.
WHAT IS DIVERGENCE
Divergence occurs when price makes a new high or low, but the oscillator fails to confirm it. This disagreement between price and momentum often precedes reversals.
There are four types of divergence:
REGULAR BULLISH DIVERGENCE
Price makes a lower low (new low point below the previous low), but the oscillator makes a higher low (its low point is above its previous low). This suggests that despite price going lower, selling momentum is actually weakening. The implication is that sellers are losing conviction and a bounce or reversal may be approaching.
Visual example: Imagine price drops from 100 to 95, bounces to 97, then drops again to 93. At the same time, the oscillator drops to 25, bounces to 35, then drops only to 30. Price made a lower low (93 vs 95) but the oscillator made a higher low (30 vs 25). This is regular bullish divergence.
REGULAR BEARISH DIVERGENCE
Price makes a higher high (new high point above the previous high), but the oscillator makes a lower high (its high point is below its previous high). This suggests that despite price going higher, buying momentum is actually weakening. The implication is that buyers are losing conviction and a pullback or reversal may be approaching.
HIDDEN BULLISH DIVERGENCE
Price makes a higher low (its low point is above its previous low), but the oscillator makes a lower low (new low below its previous low). This occurs during uptrends and suggests the trend will continue. Price is holding higher but momentum briefly dipped further, indicating a temporary pullback within a larger uptrend.
HIDDEN BEARISH DIVERGENCE
Price makes a lower high (its high point is below its previous high), but the oscillator makes a higher high (new high above its previous high). This occurs during downtrends and suggests the trend will continue. Price is staying lower but momentum briefly spiked higher, indicating a temporary bounce within a larger downtrend.
Regular divergence suggests reversal. Hidden divergence suggests continuation.
HOW IT APPEARS ON THE CHART
When divergence is confirmed, labels appear on the oscillator:
BULL DIV: Regular bullish divergence confirmed
BEAR DIV: Regular bearish divergence confirmed
H-BULL: Hidden bullish divergence confirmed
H-BEAR: Hidden bearish divergence confirmed
Dotted lines connect the pivot points on the oscillator to show the divergence pattern. Regular divergence uses solid colored lines, hidden divergence uses dashed lines.
The dashboard shows divergence status in real-time:
CHECKING BULL: A potential bullish divergence pattern is forming but not yet confirmed
CHECKING BEAR: A potential bearish divergence pattern is forming but not yet confirmed
BULL CONFIRMED: Bullish divergence has been validated
BEAR CONFIRMED: Bearish divergence has been validated
NONE: No divergence currently active
Divergence strength is calculated from the magnitude of the oscillator discrepancy. Only divergences meeting the minimum strength threshold are displayed to filter out minor, less significant patterns.
FLOW RIBBONS: VISUALIZING MOMENTUM ALIGNMENT
The fifth major component is the Flow Ribbon system, which displays multiple moving averages of the QMF oscillator to visualize momentum trend and alignment.
WHAT ARE FLOW RIBBONS
Flow ribbons consist of three Exponential Moving Averages (EMAs) applied to the QMF oscillator values. Think of them as smoothed versions of the oscillator at different speeds:
Fast Ribbon : Responds quickly to momentum changes, showing recent momentum direction
Medium Ribbon: Balances responsiveness with smoothness, showing intermediate momentum
Slow Ribbon: Moves slowly and shows longer-term momentum context
When these three lines are plotted together with filled area between them, they create a visual ribbon that expands and contracts based on momentum conditions.
WHY RIBBON ALIGNMENT MATTERS
The relationship between these three averages tells you about momentum structure:
BULLISH ALIGNMENT (Fast above Medium above Slow)
When the ribbons are stacked with fast on top, medium in middle, and slow on bottom, momentum is aligned bullishly across multiple timeframes. Short-term momentum leads, with medium and long-term momentum confirming. This is the strongest bullish configuration.
BEARISH ALIGNMENT (Fast below Medium below Slow)
When the ribbons are inverted with fast on bottom, medium in middle, and slow on top, momentum is aligned bearishly across multiple timeframes. Short-term momentum leads downward, with medium and long-term momentum confirming. This is the strongest bearish configuration.
MIXED/TRANSITIONING
When the ribbons are not properly stacked, momentum is in transition. This often occurs during consolidation, trend changes, or choppy conditions. Trading during mixed ribbon states carries higher uncertainty.
RIBBON EXPANSION AND CONTRACTION
Beyond alignment, the distance between the fast and slow ribbon provides additional information:
EXPANDING RIBBON
When the gap between fast and slow ribbon is increasing, momentum is accelerating. In a bullish alignment with expansion, upward momentum is strengthening. In a bearish alignment with expansion, downward momentum is strengthening. Expansion confirms trend conviction.
CONTRACTING RIBBON
When the gap between fast and slow ribbon is decreasing, momentum is decelerating. The current trend may be losing steam. Contraction often precedes consolidation or reversal. It serves as an early warning that the current move may be exhausting.
HOW IT APPEARS ON THE CHART
The fast ribbon appears as a thicker line, the slow ribbon as a thinner line. The area between them fills with color:
Green fill: Bullish ribbon alignment
Red fill: Bearish ribbon alignment
Gray fill: Neutral or transitioning state
The dashboard shows ribbon state as BULL, BEAR, or NEUT, and indicates whether ribbons are expanding (EXP) or contracting (CON).
Ribbon crossovers occur when the fast ribbon crosses the slow ribbon, signaling potential momentum shifts. These crossovers are confirmed only after the bar closes to prevent false signals from intrabar movement.
REVERSAL CLOUDS: PROBABILITY ZONES
The sixth major component is the Reversal Cloud system, which visualizes zones where momentum reversals have elevated probability.
WHAT ARE REVERSAL CLOUDS
Reversal clouds are shaded areas around the QMF oscillator that indicate probability zones for mean reversion. They answer the question: How far from average has momentum extended, and what is the probability it will revert?
When the oscillator moves far from its normal range, it creates stretched conditions. Like a rubber band pulled to its limit, the probability increases that it will snap back toward center. Reversal clouds visualize these stretched conditions.
CLOUD CALCULATION METHODS
Five different calculation methods are available, each with different characteristics:
DYNAMIC BOLLINGER
Uses statistical standard deviation to create bands that adapt to oscillator volatility. When the oscillator is volatile, bands widen. When the oscillator is calm, bands narrow. This method identifies moves that are statistically significant relative to recent oscillator behavior.
GOLDEN RATIO
Applies Fibonacci proportions (0.214 and 0.786) to the oscillator range. These ratios appear throughout nature and markets. Some traders believe these proportions have psychological significance in market behavior.
ADAPTIVE HALO
Scales cloud width based on price ATR rather than oscillator volatility. This connects cloud width to actual price volatility, making the clouds wider during volatile price action and narrower during calm periods.
VOLATILITY SQUEEZE
Uses short-term standard deviation to create bands that contract during low volatility and expand during high volatility. This method is particularly useful for identifying potential breakout conditions when volatility is compressed.
ICHIMOKU RSI
Applies concepts from Ichimoku Kinko Hyo equilibrium theory to create balanced zones. Uses multiple lookback periods to establish equilibrium levels where the oscillator tends to find balance.
HOW TO READ THE CLOUDS
The oscillator moves through the cloud area as momentum fluctuates:
When QMF enters the upper cloud region, it indicates extended bullish momentum. The higher into the cloud, the greater the probability of bearish reversal through mean reversion.
When QMF enters the lower cloud region, it indicates extended bearish momentum. The deeper into the cloud, the greater the probability of bullish reversal through mean reversion.
Cloud opacity adjusts based on reversal probability. More opaque coloring indicates higher reversal probability. Subtle coloring indicates lower reversal probability.
IMPORTANT UNDERSTANDING
Clouds show probability zones, not certainty. Price can remain in extreme zones longer than expected, particularly during strong trends. Clouds are most useful when combined with other components like divergence, S/R breaks, and ribbon alignment rather than used in isolation.
MULTI-TIMEFRAME ANALYSIS: SEEING THE BIGGER PICTURE
The seventh major component is Multi-Timeframe (MTF) analysis, which calculates QMF values across multiple timeframes to assess momentum alignment at different time perspectives.
WHY MULTIPLE TIMEFRAMES MATTER
The timeframe you trade on shows only one perspective of market momentum. A bullish signal on a 15-minute chart may occur within a larger bearish trend on the 4-hour chart. Understanding momentum context from higher timeframes helps you assess whether you are trading with or against the larger flow.
When multiple timeframes align in the same direction, the probability of a successful trade increases. When timeframes conflict, the situation is more uncertain and requires additional caution.
HOW MTF ANALYSIS WORKS
The indicator calculates the full QMF oscillator independently on four configurable timeframes. By default, these are set to 5-minute, 15-minute, 60-minute (1 hour), and 240-minute (4 hour), but you can configure them to any timeframes that suit your trading style.
For each timeframe, the system determines the current momentum bias:
OB - Overbought: QMF above 70, indicating extended bullish momentum that may reverse
B+ - Strong Bullish: QMF above 55 and above its signal line, indicating solid bullish momentum
B - Bullish: QMF above its signal line, indicating mild bullish momentum
N - Neutral: QMF near 50 with no clear direction
S - Bearish: QMF below its signal line, indicating mild bearish momentum
S+ - Strong Bearish: QMF below 45 and below its signal line, indicating solid bearish momentum
OS - Oversold: QMF below 30, indicating extended bearish momentum that may reverse
ALIGNMENT SCORING
The dashboard displays an alignment score showing how many of the four timeframes agree with each directional bias. This appears as a fraction like 3/4 or 2/4.
4/4 Bullish: All four timeframes show bullish readings - maximum bullish alignment
3/4 Bullish: Three timeframes bullish, one diverging - strong bullish alignment
2/4: Split between bullish and bearish - no clear alignment, use caution
3/4 Bearish: Three timeframes bearish, one diverging - strong bearish alignment
4/4 Bearish: All four timeframes show bearish readings - maximum bearish alignment
Higher alignment scores indicate more reliable momentum context. Trading with 3/4 or 4/4 alignment in your favor provides better odds than trading against alignment or during mixed conditions.
NON-REPAINTING MTF DATA
The multi-timeframe data uses proper request.security settings with lookahead disabled and gaps handled correctly. This ensures the MTF readings you see in backtesting match what you would see in real-time trading, with no future data leakage that could create misleading results.
LIVE MOMENTUM SCORING: REAL-TIME MARKET ASSESSMENT
The eighth major component is the Live Momentum Scoring system, which provides continuous real-time feedback on current market conditions.
WHAT IS LIVE MOMENTUM SCORING
Unlike signals which only appear when specific patterns complete, live momentum scores update every bar to show the current balance between bullish and bearish factors. This answers the question: Right now, how do the bullish factors compare to the bearish factors?
The system evaluates six categories for each direction and adds up points:
ZONE POSITION (0-25 points)
Rewards positioning in favorable oscillator zones. Deep oversold positioning adds points to the bullish score. Deep overbought positioning adds points to the bearish score. Extreme zones receive maximum points, moderate zones receive partial points, neutral zones receive zero.
DIVERGENCE (0-20 points)
Rewards active or forming divergence patterns. Confirmed divergence receives full points. Forming (checking) divergence receives partial credit. No divergence receives zero points.
TREND ALIGNMENT (0-20 points)
Rewards proper EMA stacking and trend MA positioning. Full bullish EMA stack (fast above medium above slow above trend MA) receives maximum bullish points. Partial alignment receives partial points.
MOMENTUM DIRECTION (0-15 points)
Rewards current momentum direction and acceleration. Accelerating momentum in the favorable direction receives maximum points. Simple directional momentum receives moderate points. Histogram turning (early reversal signs) receives partial points.
RIBBON STATE (0-10 points)
Rewards proper ribbon alignment and expansion. Aligned and expanding ribbons receive maximum points. Aligned but contracting ribbons receive moderate points. Mixed ribbons receive zero points.
MULTI-TIMEFRAME (0-10 points)
Rewards higher timeframe alignment. 4/4 alignment receives maximum points, scaling down as alignment decreases.
READING THE LIVE SCORES
The dashboard displays current scores for both directions:
BULL: Shows bullish score as percentage (0-100) and letter grade (A through D)
BEAR: Shows bearish score as percentage (0-100) and letter grade (A through D)
BIAS: Shows which direction currently dominates (BULL, BEAR, or NEUTRAL if close)
Grade thresholds:
A Grade: 70% or higher - Strong momentum factors aligned
B Grade: 50-69% - Moderate momentum factors present
C Grade: 30-49% - Some momentum factors but incomplete
D Grade: Below 30% - Weak or missing momentum factors
The dominant bias shows which direction currently has stronger factors. When one side leads by more than 10 points, it shows that direction. Otherwise, it shows NEUTRAL indicating balanced or mixed conditions.
WHY LIVE SCORING MATTERS
Live scores help you understand current market conditions even when no signal has fired. You can see momentum building or fading in real-time. A rising bullish score suggests conditions are improving for potential long opportunities. A rising bearish score suggests conditions are deteriorating.
This continuous feedback helps with:
- Anticipating potential signals before they fire

HOW SIGNALS EMERGE FROM CONFLUENCE
After understanding all the individual components, it becomes clear how signals are generated. Signals in QMF are not arbitrary triggers based on single conditions. They emerge when multiple independent factors align to create confluence.
THE PATTERN-BASED APPROACH
The signal system uses a hierarchical pattern-based approach. Rather than calculating a score from random factors and labeling it, the system actively hunts for specific predefined pattern combinations.
The system first checks for Grade A patterns. If none are found, it checks for Grade B patterns. If none are found, it checks for Grade C patterns. Each grade represents specific combinations of factors that must be present together.
GRADE A REQUIREMENTS
Grade A patterns require multiple strong factors aligned. Examples of Grade A pattern combinations:
Pattern A1 - Perfect Storm Reversal:
- Extreme zone positioning (deeply oversold or overbought)
- Confirmed regular divergence
- Structural break (resistance broken or support broken or trendline broken)
- Strong volume conviction (1.3x or higher)
- High MTF alignment (3 or more timeframes agreeing)
Pattern A2 - Breakout Conviction:
- Resistance or support broken
- Accelerating momentum in the breakout direction
- Full EMA stack aligned
- Ribbon aligned and expanding
- Strong volume conviction (1.4x or higher)
- Good MTF alignment (2 or more timeframes)
Pattern A3 - Zone Reversal Multi-Confirmation:
- Extreme or standard zone positioning
- Regular or hidden divergence confirmed
- Active bounce from zone
- EMA crossover or MA break in reversal direction
- Good MTF alignment (2 or more timeframes)
- Volume conviction present (1.2x or higher)
All factors in the pattern must be present simultaneously. Missing any single factor disqualifies the Grade A pattern.
GRADE B REQUIREMENTS
Grade B patterns require fewer but still meaningful confirmations. These patterns fire only when no Grade A pattern is detected:
Pattern B1 - Zone with Confirmation:
- Oversold or overbought zone positioning
- Momentum in reversal direction
- Hidden divergence, EMA crossover, or trendline break present
- Minimum MTF alignment met
Pattern B2 - Divergence with Structure:
- Regular or hidden divergence confirmed
- Structural break (S/R or trendline or MA)
- Momentum confirming direction
- Volume at least average
Pattern B3 - Clean Trend Continuation:
- Above or below trend MA
- Ribbon aligned in direction
- Oscillator crossed signal line
- EMA stack complete
GRADE C REQUIREMENTS
Grade C patterns require basic confirmations. These patterns fire only when no Grade A or Grade B pattern is detected:
Pattern C1 - Early Zone Entry:
- Zone positioning or approaching zone
- Momentum in expected direction
- Oscillator or EMA crossover present
Pattern C2 - Momentum Shift:
- Histogram turning in expected direction
- Oscillator crossover confirmed
- Oscillator on expected side of midline
SIGNAL QUALITY CONTROLS
Beyond pattern detection, several quality controls must be satisfied:
COOLDOWN
A minimum number of bars must pass between any two signals. This prevents signal clustering during volatile conditions and ensures each signal represents a distinct opportunity.
DIRECTION ALTERNATION
When enabled, signals must alternate between LONG and SHORT. After a LONG signal, only SHORT signals can fire until direction changes. This prevents multiple consecutive signals in the same direction.
PULLBACK REQUIREMENT
After a signal fires, the oscillator must retrace a minimum percentage before another same-direction signal can fire. This ensures re-entry signals occur after meaningful pullbacks rather than immediately after the first signal.
VOLUME CONFIRMATION (Optional)
When enabled, volume must meet minimum threshold relative to average. This filters out signals during low-volume periods when moves may lack follow-through.
BAR CONFIRMATION
All signals require barstate.isconfirmed, meaning they only fire after the bar closes. This prevents signals from appearing and disappearing during live bar formation, ensuring backtest results match live behavior.
A comprehensive example that combines signal generation logic, grading system, with all elements clearly annotated for easy understanding.
SETTINGS REFERENCE
This section provides a reference for the main configurable settings organized by category.

PRACTICAL EXAMPLE: READING THE COMPLETE PICTURE
This example walks through analyzing a chart using all the indicator components together.
SCENARIO: You are analyzing a 15-minute chart looking for trading opportunities.
STEP 1: ASSESS OSCILLATOR ZONE
You look at the QMF oscillator and see it reading 24, which is in the oversold zone. The dashboard confirms this showing OVERSOLD in the zone status. The progress bar shows the oscillator is in the lower portion of its range.
Initial assessment: The market has experienced significant selling pressure and is in territory where bullish reversals have elevated probability.
STEP 2: CHECK STRUCTURE
You look at the dynamic S/R levels. The oscillator recently touched its support level at 22 and bounced. You see an S with checkmark marker indicating support held. The dashboard shows AT SUP status.
Assessment update: The oscillator found support at a level that has held before. This adds to the bullish case.
STEP 3: EXAMINE TRENDLINES
You notice a resistance trendline connecting recent oscillator highs that has been declining. The oscillator is currently approaching this trendline from below. No break has occurred yet.
Assessment update: There is overhead resistance that will need to be cleared. A break above would be significant.
STEP 4: CHECK DIVERGENCE
The dashboard shows BULL CONFIRMED in the divergence status. Looking at the oscillator, you see a BULL DIV label with a dotted line connecting two pivot lows. The oscillator made a higher low while price made a lower low.
Assessment update: Confirmed bullish divergence suggests selling momentum is weakening despite price continuing lower. This is a meaningful signal of potential reversal.
STEP 5: EVALUATE RIBBONS
The ribbons are currently mixed with fast below medium but both above slow. Ribbon fill is gray indicating transitioning state. However, you notice the fast ribbon is turning upward and approaching the medium ribbon from below.
Assessment update: Ribbons are not yet aligned bullish, but appear to be transitioning. A bullish crossover may be approaching.
STEP 6: CHECK MTF ALIGNMENT
The dashboard MTF panel shows: 5m is B+, 15m is B, 1H is N, 4H is S. The alignment shows 2/4 bullish.
Assessment update: Lower timeframes support bullish bias, but higher timeframes are neutral or bearish. This is mixed alignment, suggesting caution. Any bullish move may face resistance from higher timeframe sellers.
STEP 7: REVIEW LIVE MOMENTUM SCORES
Dashboard shows BULL at 52% Grade B, BEAR at 28% Grade D. Dominant bias shows BULL.
Assessment update: Bullish factors currently outweigh bearish factors. The score suggests moderate bullish conditions, not yet strong.
STEP 8: SYNTHESIS
Putting it together:
- Oversold zone positioning (bullish factor)
- Support held (bullish factor)
- Bullish divergence confirmed (strong bullish factor)
- Ribbons transitioning but not yet aligned (neutral)
- MTF alignment mixed at 2/4 (caution factor)
- Live score favors bullish moderately (supporting factor)
- Resistance trendline overhead (risk factor)
Conclusion: Conditions favor a bullish reversal but with caution warranted due to mixed MTF alignment and overhead resistance. This would not qualify for a Grade A signal due to insufficient MTF alignment. If a signal fires, it would likely be Grade B.
STEP 9: SIGNAL FIRES
Several bars later, the oscillator crosses above its signal line while still in oversold territory. The EMA fast crosses above EMA slow. A LONG B signal appears at 85% confluence.
The signal represents: Oversold positioning plus confirmed divergence plus momentum crossover, meeting Grade B pattern requirements.
STEP 10: MONITORING
After entry, you monitor the dashboard for changing conditions. Live momentum scores continue rising. The resistance trendline breaks (TL up arrow marker appears). Ribbons align bullish. MTF alignment improves to 3/4 as the 1H turns bullish.
The improving conditions confirm the trade thesis. You hold the position as conditions strengthen.

PowerWave Oscillator Suite [BOSWaves]PowerWave Oscillator Suite - Multi-Dimensional Momentum & Trend Oscillator with Adaptive Divergence Insight
Overview
PowerWave Oscillator Suite is a cutting-edge analytical toolkit designed to provide traders with a sophisticated understanding of momentum, trend strength, and divergence behavior in financial markets. Unlike conventional oscillators that rely solely on price-based calculations, PowerWave combines adaptive, multi-dimensional computation engines with advanced visualization tools and divergence detection systems. The suite offers a unique blend of trend-following, mean-reversion, and contrarian trading insights, allowing users to analyze markets from multiple angles simultaneously. Each module within the suite has been designed to offer precision, clarity, and adaptability, ensuring that traders of all levels - from novice to professional - can extract actionable intelligence without unnecessary chart clutter or signal ambiguity.
PowerWave Oscillator Suite focuses on three primary trading paradigms: momentum measurement, volume-based filtering, and smoothed trend oscillation. These paradigms are accessible via three core modules - Aroon Oscillator, Adaptive Volume Filter, and HyperSmooth Oscillator - each equipped with advanced smoothing, dynamic source selection, reduced-lag computation, and divergence detection, offering a comprehensive approach to market analysis. By leveraging the full capabilities of this toolkit, traders can identify market turning points, confirm trend strength, detect hidden divergences, and refine entries and exits, all within a single integrated framework.
Configuration Panel and Customization Options
At the heart of PowerWave is a robust configuration panel that allows users to tailor the suite to their individual trading preferences and market conditions. The first level of customization is the Module Selection, allowing users to toggle between the Aroon Oscillator, Adaptive Volume Filter, or HyperSmooth Oscillator. Each module is designed with a distinct analytical purpose:
Aroon Oscillator : Measures trend strength and provides early signals for trend reversals or continuation.
Adaptive Volume Filter : Uses volume-based filtering to highlight momentum shifts, smoothing out noise from price fluctuations.
HyperSmooth Oscillator : Delivers finely smoothed oscillations, designed to capture micro-trend shifts and acceleration patterns.
Users can enhance the responsiveness and filtering behavior of each module via the Enhancement Level setting, a numeric input that applies a series of multi-stage exponential smoothing layers, ensuring signals are robust against market noise without introducing excessive lag. Additionally, the Source Type option allows traders to determine the price input methodology - ranging from adaptive combinations of open, high, low, and close values to more traditional sources - granting flexibility to align the indicator with preferred strategies or asset characteristics.
Engineered Visual Intelligence and Module-Specific Color Systems
PowerWave employs purpose-built, module-specific color systems that are tightly integrated with each oscillator’s underlying computation model. Rather than treating color as a cosmetic layer, the suite uses color as an informational channel, encoding state, momentum bias, and structural context directly into the visual output.
Each module operates with a dedicated color logic aligned to its analytical role:
The Aroon Oscillator uses polarity-driven gradients to express time-based trend dominance and directional strength.
The Adaptive Volume Filter applies contrasting color states to distinguish expanding versus contracting volume pressure.
The HyperSmooth Oscillator utilizes a dynamic HSV-based color spectrum that continuously maps momentum acceleration and deceleration into the oscillator line itself.
These color systems are reinforced through coordinated visual elements, including bar coloring, background state highlighting, histogram fills, and cross-condition shading. Users can further tune visual intensity and emphasis through enhanced mode and opacity controls, allowing the same engineered color logic to be amplified or subdued depending on chart density and personal workflow.
By designing color behavior as an extension of the calculation engine - rather than an arbitrary styling choice - PowerWave ensures that visual cues remain consistent, data-driven, and immediately interpretable across assets, timeframes, and market regimes.
Dynamic Source and Zero-Lag Computation
A defining characteristic of PowerWave Oscillator Suite is its Dynamic Source Calculation engine, which adjusts the input price series according to the trader’s chosen source type and enhancement level. This system ensures that signals are computed from a refined, noise-filtered base, enhancing reliability across asset classes and timeframes. Each stage of the multi-level smoothing hierarchy incrementally reduces erratic price fluctuations while preserving meaningful structural movement, allowing traders to differentiate between minor price noise and genuine momentum shifts.
Complementing this is the Adaptive Reduced-Lag Filter, a highly specialized algorithm that minimizes lag inherent in traditional moving averages or oscillators. This filter uses a gain-optimized EMA structure that continuously self-adjusts based on recent price dynamics, providing traders with fast yet reliable signals. By incorporating zero-lag calculations, PowerWave ensures that trend reversals and momentum inflections are detected in near real-time, allowing for earlier entries, faster confirmations, and more accurate exits. The reduced-lag filter also dynamically adjusts its internal gain coefficients, minimizing error while accounting for varying market volatility.
Aroon Oscillator Module
The Aroon Oscillator module within PowerWave is designed to quantify trend strength and identify emerging directional shifts. Utilizing a dual-period calculation, the module compares the relative timing of recent highs and lows, producing a normalized oscillation that reflects the market’s current momentum. Advanced zero-lag filtering ensures that even minor reversals or trend accelerations are captured with minimal delay, while additional smoothing can be applied via the configuration panel to match the trader’s preferred sensitivity.
The module includes trend and mean-reversion signal detection:
Trend Signals : Generated when the oscillator crosses the zero line, indicating potential trend continuation or initiation.
Reversion Signals : Triggered by crossovers between the oscillator and its internal signal line, highlighting potential pullbacks or temporary counter-trend behavior.
Visual overlays, including bar coloring and gradient plots, highlight bullish and bearish momentum zones, making it immediately apparent whether the market is in a trending or consolidating state. By combining trend and reversion insights with divergence detection, traders gain a multi-layered understanding of market structure, allowing for well-timed entries and exits.
Use Case:
Use the Aroon Oscillator when your primary objective is identifying real trend shifts early and staying aligned with structure. This model excels in markets transitioning from consolidation into expansion, where timing matters more than micro-entries. Zero-line crosses define directional regime changes, while signal-line crossovers expose mean-reversion pullbacks within a dominant trend. Divergences here are high-quality because Aroon measures time-based strength, not just price movement - making this ideal for swing traders and intraday trend followers who want confirmation before committing size.
Adaptive Volume Filter Module
The Adaptive Volume Filter takes a fundamentally different approach, analyzing volume-driven market behavior. By transforming price inputs with volume-weighted calculations and applying an adaptive multi-stage smoothing engine, this module emphasizes genuine buying and selling pressure while suppressing noise caused by small, indecisive bars.
Key features include:
Dynamic Thresholding : Traders can set threshold levels to define oversold or overbought regions based on relative volume patterns.
Multi-tiered Signal Generation : Local trend signals identify moderate momentum shifts, while oversold/overbought conditions trigger stronger trade opportunities.
Volume-Cycle Adaptation : The filter adapts to cyclical volume patterns, ensuring that signals remain valid during periods of high or low market participation.
This module is particularly effective for spotting institutional accumulation/distribution, validating trends, and detecting early inflection points where price action alone might be misleading.
Use Case:
Select the Adaptive Volume Filter when you want to validate price movement with participation, not guess momentum in a vacuum. This oscillator shines during breakouts, distribution phases, and deceptive price moves where volume tells the real story. Overbought and oversold zones highlight statistically stretched volume conditions, while the adaptive smoothing engine filters short-term noise caused by small, indecisive bars. This is the model you use to confirm whether a move is being supported or starved - making it lethal for spotting exhaustion, fake breakouts, and accumulation/distribution zones.
HyperSmooth Oscillator Module
The HyperSmooth Oscillator represents the most sophisticated module in the suite, combining adaptive smoothing, dual-cycle EMA differentiation, and volatility-normalized scaling. It calculates momentum by comparing fast and slow EMA cycles of a dynamically smoothed price series and then normalizes this difference using ATR-based volatility adjustments. This ensures that the oscillator is sensitive to micro-momentum changes while remaining robust against extreme volatility spikes.
Additional innovations in this module include:
Hyper-smoothing and acceleration detection : Captures micro-trend shifts and identifies momentum acceleration or deceleration, providing early insight into potential trend reversals.
Dynamic color mapping : Uses HSV-based gradient calculations to indicate the intensity and direction of momentum, enhancing immediate visual interpretation.
Threshold-based cross-validation : Ensures that only meaningful crossovers are flagged as buy or sell signals, reducing false positives in noisy markets.
Combined, these mechanisms give traders access to both subtle and strong market moves, allowing nuanced position sizing and timing strategies.
Use Case:
Use HyperSmooth when you need speed, sensitivity, and volatility-aware momentum detection. This model is built for fast markets, aggressive entries, and momentum continuation plays where standard oscillators lag. By normalizing momentum with ATR and dynamically adjusting signal thresholds, HyperSmooth filters weak crosses and only reacts when momentum actually matters. Color-shifted acceleration highlights when force is increasing or decaying, making this the go-to mode for scalpers and momentum traders hunting explosive continuation or sharp reversals with minimal delay.
Enhanced Divergence Detection System
PowerWave includes a robust divergence detection engine, capable of identifying regular and hidden bullish and bearish divergences across all modules. Divergences are detected by analyzing oscillator pivots against corresponding price highs and lows, ensuring that traders can spot structural weaknesses or strengths in trend continuation.
Key enhancements include:
Pivot-based analysis with lookback control : Allows customization of sensitivity to short-term vs. long-term divergences.
Priority system : Regular divergences are highlighted first, while hidden divergences are only displayed if no regular divergence is present, reducing chart clutter.
Visual representation : Divergences are drawn on both the oscillator and price chart using solid or dashed lines with opacity gradients, enabling clear interpretation of potential reversal zones.
This system equips traders to anticipate trend exhaustion points, early reversals, and high-probability pullbacks, a critical advantage in both trending and range-bound markets.
Visualization and Chart Interpretation
Every module in PowerWave is accompanied by enhanced visual aids, including histogram fills, line overlays, bar coloring, and shape-based trade markers. These features provide instant clarity on:
Trend direction : Bullish vs. bearish zones are highlighted via gradient fills and bar color overlays.
Signal strength : Minor, regular, and strong trade setups are distinguished using shape markers (triangles, circles, diamonds).
Momentum confirmation : Histogram fills indicate whether the oscillator is accelerating or decelerating relative to its signal line.
By integrating these visualizations, PowerWave transforms complex calculations into immediately actionable chart insights, enabling both manual and automated strategies to be executed with confidence.
General Use Cases and Trading Applications
Trend-following : Combine oscillator zero-line crossovers with divergence confirmation for disciplined entries.
Counter-trend trading : Utilize hidden divergence signals to identify potential reversal points before visible trend exhaustion.
Volume-sensitive trades : Adaptive Volume Filter highlights accumulation/distribution phases, providing context for institutional participation.
Scalping and swing strategies : HyperSmooth Oscillator captures micro-momentum changes, ideal for both short-term scalping and multi-day swing trades.
The suite is designed for flexibility and adaptability, allowing traders to integrate multiple modules, fine-tune parameters, and create customized signals aligned with personal strategies or specific market conditions.
Final Notes
PowerWave Oscillator Suite is designed as an analytical decision-support system. It provides structured market insight based on historical price and volume behavior and does not constitute predictive or outcome-guaranteed functionality. Its core design philosophy emphasizes clarity, adaptability, and risk-aware decision-making. Every calculation, filter, and visual cue is intended to provide insight, not guarantees. Traders are encouraged to combine the suite’s outputs with proper risk management, contextual market awareness, and disciplined strategy execution.

Flux Momentum Oscillator[BullByte]Flux Momentum Oscillator is a professional-grade momentum analysis system built on an original methodology called Momentum Flux Bars (MFB). Unlike conventional oscillators that measure momentum over fixed time periods, this indicator constructs synthetic momentum bars based on actual price movement, creating a pure representation of directional pressure independent of time-based noise.
This is NOT a mashup or combination of existing indicators. The entire system is built from the ground up around a single cohesive concept: measuring momentum through price-triggered synthetic bars rather than time-triggered calculations.
CORE INNOVATION: MOMENTUM FLUX BARS (MFB)
Traditional momentum indicators calculate values at fixed time intervals, which means a slow, grinding move receives the same measurement weight as a fast, explosive move occurring over the same number of bars. This creates distortion in momentum readings.
Momentum Flux Bars solve this problem by forming only when price travels a volatility-adjusted distance. Each MFB represents genuine directional commitment from market participants.
Key Properties of Momentum Flux Bars:
- Form based on price movement, not time passage
- Automatically adjust their formation threshold based on current volatility
- Capture the velocity of price movement (how quickly each bar forms)
- Record volume participation during formation
- Create a noise-filtered view of true market momentum
The oscillator then analyzes the pattern, velocity, and characteristics of recent MFB formations to produce its readings.
WHY THIS APPROACH MATTERS FOR TRADERS
Time-Based Problem: A 14-period RSI on a choppy day produces the same calculation structure as on a trending day, even though market behavior differs completely. The indicator cannot distinguish between meaningful moves and noise.
Flux-Based Solution: When price chops sideways, fewer MFBs form because price fails to travel the required distance. When price trends strongly, MFBs form rapidly in sequence. The oscillator inherently adapts to actual market behavior.
Practical Benefits:
- Cleaner signals during trending conditions
- Automatic noise reduction during consolidation
- Earlier detection of momentum shifts through velocity analysis
- Reduced false signals in choppy markets
- No manual adjustment needed across different market conditions
COMPLETE FEATURE BREAKDOWN
FEATURE 1: AUTO-OPTIMIZATION ENGINE
The indicator includes an optional auto-optimization system that continuously evaluates different sensitivity parameters and selects the configuration producing the cleanest momentum measurement for current conditions.
How It Works:
- Tests multiple ATR multiplier values against recent price history
- Scores each configuration based on trend capture efficiency
- Automatically applies the optimal setting
- Re-evaluates periodically to adapt to changing conditions
Trader Benefit: Eliminates the guesswork of parameter tuning. The indicator finds its own optimal settings.
FEATURE 2: MARKET REGIME CLASSIFICATION
The system classifies current market conditions into four distinct regimes based on MFB formation patterns:
EXPLOSIVE: Rapid MFB formation with strong directional bias and high volume participation. Indicates powerful trending conditions with high momentum.
STEADY: Consistent MFB formation in a primary direction with normal velocity. Represents healthy, sustainable trends suitable for trend-following approaches.
CONSOLIDATING: Mixed direction MFB formation with decreasing velocity. Suggests range-bound conditions where breakout strategies may be appropriate.
DEAD: Minimal MFB formation activity. Indicates extremely low volatility or market indecision. Often precedes significant moves.
Trader Benefit: Instantly understand current market character and adjust strategy accordingly.
FEATURE 3: VELOCITY DIVERGENCE DETECTION
This advanced feature monitors the formation speed of Momentum Flux Bars and compares it against price direction.
Velocity Divergence Bearish: Price making higher highs but MFBs forming progressively slower. Suggests buying pressure is weakening despite higher prices.
Velocity Divergence Bullish: Price making lower lows but MFBs forming progressively slower. Suggests selling pressure is weakening despite lower prices.
Trader Benefit: Early warning system for potential reversals before they appear on price charts.
FEATURE 4: MOMENTUM EXHAUSTION DETECTION
The system identifies when a trending move may be running out of energy by analyzing the duration pattern of consecutive same-direction MFBs.
Exhaustion Pattern: When each successive MFB in a trend takes progressively longer to form, it indicates diminishing momentum even though direction remains unchanged.
States Displayed:
- BUILDING: Momentum is increasing or stable
- PEAK: Maximum momentum velocity reached
- EXHAUSTING: Progressive slowdown detected
Trader Benefit: Know when a trend is losing steam before price reverses.
FEATURE 5: HIGHER TIMEFRAME ALIGNMENT
The indicator checks whether higher timeframe MFB direction supports or conflicts with current timeframe momentum.
ALIGNED BULL: Both timeframes showing bullish MFB direction
ALIGNED BEAR: Both timeframes showing bearish MFB direction
DIVERGENT: Timeframes showing opposing directions
NEUTRAL: Higher timeframe direction unclear
Trader Benefit: Trade with higher timeframe support for higher probability setups.
FEATURE 6: CHOPPY MARKET DETECTION
A dedicated algorithm analyzes recent MFB patterns to determine if the market is in a choppy, directionless state.
Detection Factors:
- Frequency of direction changes in recent MFBs
- Lack of consecutive same-direction formations
- Weak directional bias in the MFB sequence
Trader Benefit: Avoid trend-following strategies when market conditions do not support them.
FEATURE 7: TREND STRENGTH MEASUREMENT
A percentage-based strength reading derived from MFB pattern analysis.

RECOMMENDED USAGE GUIDELINES
TIMEFRAME RECOMMENDATIONS:
Scalping (1m to 5m):
- Use lower Flux Period (8-10) for faster response
- Focus on oscillator crossovers and histogram momentum
- Regime should be STEADY or EXPLOSIVE for best results
Day Trading (5m to 30m):
- Default settings work well
- Use HTF alignment with 1H or 4H for confirmation
- Avoid trading when regime shows DEAD
Swing Trading (1H to 4H):
- Consider higher Flux Period (18-21) for smoother signals
- Regime classification becomes very valuable
- Velocity divergence provides excellent early warnings
Position Trading (Daily and above):
- Higher Flux Period (21-30) recommended
- Focus on regime changes and exhaustion patterns
- HTF alignment less relevant, oscillator zones more important
ASSET CLASS NOTES:
Forex: Works well on major pairs. Consider slightly higher sensitivity on less volatile pairs.
Crypto: Higher volatility may require lower sensitivity multiplier. Regime detection particularly useful.
Stocks: Excellent for liquid stocks. Less effective on illiquid names due to gappy price action.
Indices: Very effective. Clean price action produces clean MFB patterns.
Commodities: Works well, especially on gold and oil. Adjust sensitivity for different volatility profiles.

WHAT THIS INDICATOR IS NOT
This indicator is NOT:
- A buy/sell signal generator (it provides momentum context, not trade signals)
- A standalone trading system (combine with price action and other analysis)
- A guarantee of profitability (no indicator can guarantee results)
- A replacement for risk management (always use proper position sizing and stops)
- A mashup of existing indicators (this is original methodology)
ORIGINALITY STATEMENT
The Momentum Flux Bars concept was designed specifically to address limitations of time-based momentum calculations.
Every component of this system serves the central MFB methodology:
- The oscillator measures MFB directional weight
- The regime classifier interprets MFB patterns
- The velocity analysis tracks MFB formation speed
- The exhaustion detector monitors MFB duration progression
- The HTF alignment checks MFB direction across timeframes
This is a unified analytical framework, not a collection of separate indicators.
TECHNICAL NOTES
Non-Repainting Confirmation:
All signal generation uses confirmed bar data only. MFB formations occur on bar close. Historical signals will not change after they appear.
Performance Considerations:
Auto-optimization runs periodically, not every bar, to maintain performance.
MFB history is trimmed to prevent memory issues on extended sessions.
Reduce Max MFB History if experiencing performance issues.
Symbol and Timeframe Handling:
The indicator resets its MFB history when symbol or timeframe changes.
This ensures clean analysis without carryover from previous contexts.

Version 1.0.0
MACD Master Suite [Kodexius]The MACD Master Suite is an advanced momentum and trend framework that takes the familiar MACD concept and wraps it in a modern, trader oriented environment. Instead of a single line + histogram combination, it turns MACD into a structured decision layer with enhanced visualization, confluence and context.
The engine is built around a MACD style core with refined smoothing and normalization, designed to keep shifts in momentum clear while avoiding the noisy flicker that standard settings often produce. On top of this core, the suite adds multi timeframe confirmation, adaptive histogram behavior, trend and exhaustion mapping, divergence detection and a compact visual dashboard so you can read momentum structure at a glance rather than bar by bar.
The goal is not to create a “magic signal”, but to make MACD behave like a proper momentum map: highlighting when trend strength is building, when a leg is stretching into exhaustion, where momentum is quietly rolling over beneath price, and how different timeframes are lining up before major continuation or reversal moves.
This is not classic everyday MACD. This suite extends the standard MACD through normalization and integrated features, designed to assist in analyzing momentum patterns, identifying potential reversals, and supporting multi timeframe strategies. It processes MACD data into structured outputs for use in various market conditions.
⚠️ Note:
This is not a traditional MACD, it uses normalized values, enhanced visual feedback, and a multi timeframe dashboard engine for superior signal quality and clarity.
🔹 Features
🔸 Enhanced MACD Core
- Custom MACD style oscillator that combines classic fast/slow smoothing with an internal normalization step, keeping the main wave readable even when volatility or scale changes.
- Flexible inputs for source, lengths and smoothing type so you can adapt the engine to different instruments and trading styles.
- Optional histogram + line combination, giving you both bar based impulse and a smoother line for regime changes and crossovers.
- Gradient colored oscillator line that visually shifts from red (weak momentum) through yellow (neutral) to green (strong momentum), providing at a glance regime identification.
🔸 Gradient Zones & Regime Context
- Configurable “overextended” zones around the MACD baseline, shaded with gradient fills rather than only hard lines.
- Visual emphasis on when the MACD engine is building a persistent push in one direction vs simply oscillating around the midline.
- The mid region is kept deliberately clearer so you can quickly distinguish between trending pushes, mean reverting swings and neutral chop.
🔸 MACD Channel & Break Behaviour
- Optional channel overlay built directly on top of the MACD oscillator, using volatility style bands (e.g., Bollinger-type or Keltner-type) in MACD space instead of price space.
- Helps you see when MACD is expanding strongly away from its recent equilibrium versus compressing inside a narrow band.
- Channel touches and pushes beyond the band edges can act as an additional cue for exhaustion type behaviour or strong continuation bursts.
🔸 Reversal Signal Markers
- Swing aware reversal markers that trigger when MACD conditions suggest a possible shift after stretching into your defined zones.
- Signals use the relationship between the MACD wave and its internal smoothing, aiming to highlight turning points that stand out from ordinary noise and try to filter out noise, focusing on confirmed shifts that align with broader market context.
- Markers are drawn on the MACD plot instead of the price chart to keep structure and signals in one place.
🔸 Divergence Mapping (Regular & Hidden, with MTF Dashboard Support)
- Automatic detection of regular bullish/bearish and hidden bullish/bearish divergences between price and the oscillator.
- Separate visibility toggles for each divergence type so you can focus only on the signals that fit your approach.
- "Wait for candle close" option ensures conservative confirmation, reducing false positives in fast moving markets.
🔸 Multi-Timeframe Custom MACD Dashboard
- Compact dashboard that summarizes MACD Engine state over multiple user defined timeframes in a small table.
Per timeframe cells can show:
– whether MACD is sitting in overbought/oversold style zones or in the neutral core,
– presence of recent bullish/bearish reversal signals,
– the current divergence bias (bullish, bearish or none),
– simple channel break information (upside/downside, or quiet).
Timeframe labels are formatted into familiar units (e.g., 15m, 1H, 4H, 1D) and the table is designed to be readable even when collapsed to a small area.
🔸 Oscillator Trendlines & Break Detection
- Automatically draws trendlines directly on the MACD oscillator, using momentum swing pivots instead of only price highs and lows, so you see structure shifts where they actually start in the underlying momentum.
- Lines adapt to bullish or bearish phases and are anchored only to “clean” pivots with minimal internal violations, making sustained impulse legs and corrective phases much easier to distinguish.
- When MACD momentum closes through one of these oscillator trendlines, the break is highlighted with labels, providing an additional structural confirmation layer on top of standard signal line crossovers or histogram flips.
🔸 Alerts
- Integrated alert conditions for MACD based reversals and all four divergence types (regular/hidden, bullish/bearish).
- Designed so you can create alerts directly from the indicator, turning key MACD events into actionable notifications.
- Altogether, MACD Master Suite consolidates multiple momentum tools into one cohesive interface, helping you read the “story” of MACD and its derivatives more intuitively and efficiently.
🔹 How To Use
▶ Reading the Core Momentum Engine
The main line serves as the primary momentum indicator: positions held above the midline suggest a bullish environment, whereas those below indicate a bearish setting. The gradient zones for overbought and oversold areas help identify when momentum is becoming extended or starting to ease back, offering a smoother view compared to rigid thresholds.
The channels provides an extra information for context:
• Momentum pushing toward or beyond the outer edges shows extension based on recent patterns.
• When it stays nearer to the center, it often points to balanced or corrective phases.
The histogram adds further detail to the picture: upward bars in varying green tones reflect positive momentum buildup, while downward bars in red tones show negative shifts. Diminishing bar sizes can hint at upcoming changes in direction, making it useful for spotting transitions.
Overall, focus on how these elements interact sustained positions, zone interactions, and histogram patterns to build a sense of the current momentum flow without overcomplicating the read.
▶ Working With Reversals & Divergences
Reversal markers show up after momentum enters extreme zones and starts to shift, acting as flags for areas where direction might change. They're best used as highlights for further review rather than standalone triggers.
For divergences, the tool examines how price movements align or differ from the momentum line:
• Regular types (bullish or bearish) point out possible weakening when price hits new levels but momentum doesn't follow suit.
• Hidden types (bullish or bearish) suggest ongoing trends when price retraces but momentum holds its ground.
Customize by selecting which divergences to show and opting for confirmation only after bars close this reduces clutter and promotes a steadier perspective. Experiment with these settings to match your preferred level of detail, such as enabling all types for in depth scans or limiting to regulars for simpler overviews.
In practice, combine reversals with divergences for layered insights: a reversal marker near a divergence line could strengthen the case for monitoring that area closely.
▶ Reading the Multi-Timeframe Dashboard
This dashboard packs insights from various timeframes into a compact table, allowing quick checks of alignment without switching views. Columns represent each timeframe you select, while rows cover aspects like divergence types, extreme states, general signals, and channel interactions.
A straightforward method is to:
• Look for consistency, such as matching patterns across higher frames signaling a unified trend.
• Spot differences, like shorter frames showing pullbacks while longer ones stay in extremes, which might indicate temporary adjustments.
• Use color cues greens for positive leans, reds for negative to get an at a glance feel before diving deeper.
Treat it as a quick reference tool: before focusing on a specific chart, scan the dashboard to see if broader contexts support or contradict your observations, helping refine your approach across scales.
▶ Trendlines, Breaks & Structure
Trendlines are generated from key swings in the momentum line, mapping out bullish or bearish patterns directly on the panel. This helps visualize hidden structures in momentum that might not be obvious from price alone.
Upward sloping lines often align with building positivity, downward ones with negativity. Breaks in these lines, marked on the display, can indicate when an established pattern is giving way to something different.
It's common to leave this feature disabled for routine checks and activate it for deeper examinations, such as during volatile periods or when confirming longer term shifts.
To get the most out, observe how trendlines evolve over time persistent lines might reinforce a regime, while frequent breaks could signal choppy or transitional conditions, adding another dimension to your momentum assessment.
CVD Divergence Background By HKOverview This indicator visualizes Delta Divergences (also known as Absorption) directly on your main chart. It highlights candles where the price direction contradicts the underlying net volume flow (CVD). This is a powerful method to spot "traps," limit order absorption, and potential reversals.
How it Works The script calculates the Intrabar Volume Delta based on price action relative to the candle's range. It then compares this Delta with the candle's color (Open vs. Close).
Bearish Divergence (Absorption Top):
Scenario: The candle is GREEN (Price closed higher), but the Volume Delta is NEGATIVE (Net Selling).
Visual: Red Background.
Meaning: Sellers are aggressively absorbing the buying pressure via limit orders. Price struggled to rise despite the volume.
Bullish Divergence (Absorption Bottom):
Scenario: The candle is RED (Price closed lower), but the Volume Delta is POSITIVE (Net Buying).
Visual: Green Background.
Meaning: Buyers are aggressively absorbing the selling pressure via limit orders. Price struggled to fall despite the volume.
Features
Background Highlighting: Instantly spot divergences without checking a separate oscillator window.
Seamless Integration: Works perfectly behind your price candles and other indicators (like Big Trade detectors).
Customizable: You can adjust the colors and transparency to fit your chart theme.
Use Case Use this to identify exhausted moves. If you see a green candle with a red background at a resistance level, it suggests that buyers are running into a wall of sellers, increasing the probability of a reversal.
AI Reversal Signals Custom [wjdtks255]📊 Indicator Overview: AI Reversal Signals Custom
This indicator is a comprehensive trend-following and reversal detection tool. It combines the long-term trend bias of a 200 EMA with highly sensitive RSI-based reversal signals and momentum visualization. It is designed to capture market bottoms and tops by identifying exhaustion points in price action.
Key Features
200 EMA (Trend Filter): A gold line representing the long-term institutional trend. It helps traders distinguish between "buying the dip" and "catching a falling knife."
Reversal Buy/Sell Labels: Real-time signals that appear when the market recovers from extreme overbought or oversold conditions.
Dynamic Background Clouds: Visual indicators of trend strength changes, highlighting potential entry zones.
Momentum Histogram: Internal calculations mimic the "Bottom Bars" seen in professional suites to track the velocity of price movement.
📈 Trading Strategy (How to Trade)
1. High-Probability Long Setup (Buy)
Trend Confirmation: Price should ideally be trading above the 200 EMA for the highest success rate.
Signal: Wait for the "BUY" label to appear below the candle.
Momentum: Confirm with the Light Green background or histogram shift indicating recovery.
Entry: Enter on the close of the signal candle.
2. High-Probability Short Setup (Sell)
Trend Confirmation: Price should ideally be trading below the 200 EMA.
Signal: Wait for the "SELL" label to appear above the candle.
Momentum: Confirm with the Red background or histogram fading from green to red.
Entry: Enter on the close of the signal candle.
3. Risk Management
Stop Loss: Place your Stop Loss slightly below the recent swing low for Buy orders, or above the recent swing high for Sell orders.
Take Profit: Exit when the price reaches a major support/resistance level or when an opposing signal appears.
💡 Professional Tip
For the best results, use this indicator on the 15-minute or 1-hour timeframes. The most powerful "Ultimate Reversal" signals occur when there is a Bullish Divergence (Price making lower lows while the RSI makes higher lows) followed by a confirmed "BUY" label.

Effort-Result Divergence [Interakktive]The Effort-Result Divergence (ERD) measures whether volume effort is producing proportional price result. It quantifies the classic Wyckoff principle: when price moves easily, momentum is real; when price struggles despite heavy volume, absorption is occurring.
Think of ERD as "energy efficiency" for price movement — green means price is gliding, red means price is grinding.
█ WHAT IT DOES
• Measures volume EFFORT relative to average volume
• Measures price RESULT relative to ATR-normalized movement
• Computes ERD = Result minus Effort (each scaled 0-100)
• Flags statistical divergences via Z-score analysis
• Absorption events: high effort, low result (negative ERD)
• Vacuum events: low effort, high result (positive ERD)
█ WHAT IT DOES NOT DO
• NO buy/sell signals
• NO entry/exit recommendations
• NO alerts (v1 is educational only)
• NO performance claims or guarantees
This is a context tool for understanding market participation quality.
█ HOW IT WORKS
The ERD analyzes two dimensions of market activity and compares them.
EFFORT (Volume Intensity)
Compares current volume to a moving average baseline:
Effort Ratio = Volume ÷ SMA(Volume, Length)
Effort Score = clamp(100 × Effort Ratio ÷ Effort Cap)
High effort means above-average volume participation.
Low effort means below-average volume participation.
RESULT (Price Efficiency)
Measures how much price moved relative to expected volatility:
Result Ratio = |Close − Previous Close| ÷ ATR
Result Score = clamp(100 × Result Ratio ÷ Result Cap)
High result means price moved significantly for the volatility regime.
Low result means price barely moved despite market activity.
ERD SCORE
ERD = Result − Effort
• Positive ERD: Result exceeds effort → price moved easily (vacuum/thin liquidity)
• Negative ERD: Effort exceeds result → price struggled (absorption/accumulation)
• Near zero: Balanced effort-to-result relationship
STATISTICAL DIVERGENCE DETECTION
Z-score analysis identifies statistically significant extremes:
Z = (ERD − Mean) ÷ StdDev
• Absorption Event: Z ≤ −threshold (extreme negative ERD)
• Vacuum Event: Z ≥ +threshold (extreme positive ERD)
█ INTERPRETATION
GREEN BARS (Positive ERD)
Price moved with relatively little volume effort. This suggests:
• Thin liquidity / low resistance
• Strong directional interest
• Momentum is "real" — not forced
RED BARS (Negative ERD)
Heavy volume was used but price barely moved. This suggests:
• Absorption / accumulation occurring
• Large players opposing the move
• Inefficiency — someone is working hard for little result
THE KEY INSIGHT
When you see:
• Down moves = high effort (red spikes)
• Up moves = low effort (green bars)
This means: It's easier for price to go up than down.
That is asymmetric strength — classic bullish pressure.
The reverse (red on up moves, green on down moves) signals bearish pressure.
PRACTICAL RULES
Without any other indicators:
• Avoid shorting when ERD is mostly green and red spikes appear only on down candles
• Be cautious buying when ERD turns red on up candles (signals absorption of buying pressure)
• Vacuum events (extreme green) often precede continuation or pause — not violent reversal
• Absorption events (extreme red) often precede reversals or range formation
█ VOLUME DATA NOTE
This indicator uses the volume variable which represents:
• Exchange volume on stocks and futures
• Tick volume on Forex and CFD instruments
Tick volume is a proxy for activity, not actual exchange volume. The indicator remains useful on Forex as relative volume comparisons are still meaningful, but interpretation should account for this limitation.
█ INPUTS
Core Settings
• Volume Average Length: Baseline period for effort calculation (default: 20)
• ATR Length: Volatility normalization period (default: 14)
• Effort Cap: Volume ratio that maps to 100% effort (default: 3.0)
• Result Cap: ATR multiple that maps to 100% result (default: 1.0)
Divergence Detection
• Z-Score Lookback: Statistical analysis window (default: 100)

Visual Settings
• Show ERD Histogram: Toggle main display
• Show Zero Line: Toggle reference line
• Show Divergence Markers: Toggle event circles
• Show Effort/Result Lines: Display component breakdown
█ ORIGINALITY
While Wyckoff's effort-versus-result principle is well-established, existing implementations are typically:
• Purely visual with no quantification
• Pattern-based requiring subjective interpretation
• Not statistically normalized for comparison across instruments
ERD is original because it:
1. Normalizes both effort and result to 0-100 scales for direct comparison
2. Uses ATR for result normalization (adapts to volatility regime)
3. Applies statistical Z-score for objective divergence detection
4. Provides quantified output suitable for systematic analysis
█ DATA WINDOW EXPORTS
When enabled, the following values are exported:
• Effort (0-100)
• Result (0-100)
• ERD Score
• Z-Score
• Absorption Event (1/0)
• Vacuum Event (1/0)
█ SUITABLE MARKETS
Works on: Stocks, Futures, Forex, Crypto
Best on: Instruments with reliable volume data (stocks, futures, crypto)
Timeframes: All timeframes — interpretation adapts accordingly
█ RELATED
• Market Efficiency Ratio — measures price path efficiency
• Wyckoff Volume Spread Analysis — conceptual foundation

Custom Reversal Oscillator [wjdtks255]📊 Indicator Overview: Custom Reversal Oscillator
This indicator is a momentum-based oscillator designed to identify potential trend reversals by analyzing price velocity and relative strength. It visualizes market exhaustion and recovery through a dynamic histogram and signal dots, similar to premium institutional tools.
Key Components
Dynamic Histogram (Bottom Bars): Changes color based on momentum strength. Bright Green/Red indicates accelerating momentum, while Darker shades suggest fading strength.
Signal Line: A white line tracing the core momentum, helping to visualize the "wave" of the market.
Buy/Sell Dots: Small circles at the bottom (Mint) or top (Red) that signal high-probability reversal points when the market is overextended.
📈 Trading Strategy (How to Trade)
1. Long Entry (Buy Signal)
Condition 1: The price should ideally be near or above the 200 EMA (for trend following) or showing a Bullish Divergence.
Condition 2: The Histogram bars transition from Dark Red to Bright Green.
Condition 3: A Mint Buy Dot appears at the bottom of the oscillator (near the -25 level).
Entry: Enter on the close of the candle where the Buy Dot is confirmed.
2. Short Entry (Sell Signal)
Condition 1: The price is struggling at resistance or showing a Bearish Divergence.
Condition 2: The Histogram bars transition from Dark Green to Bright Red.
Condition 3: A Red Sell Dot appears at the top of the oscillator (near the +25 level).
Entry: Enter on the close of the candle where the Sell Dot is confirmed.
3. Exit & Take Profit
Take Profit: Close the position when the Signal Line reaches the opposite extreme or when the histogram color starts to fade (loses its brightness).
Stop Loss: Place your stop loss slightly below the recent swing low (for Longs) or above the recent swing high (for Shorts).
💡 Pro Tips for Accuracy
Watch for Divergences: The most powerful signals occur when the price makes a lower low, but the Custom Reversal Oscillator makes a higher low. This indicates "Hidden Strength" and a massive reversal is often imminent.
SCOTTGO - RSI Divergence IndicatorRSI Divergence Indicator
This indicator combines the Relative Strength Index (RSI) with an automatic divergence detection system.
It is designed to help traders spot potential trend changes by:
Color-Coded RSI: The main RSI line dynamically changes color (e.g., green/red) above and below a user-defined threshold (default 50) to highlight strong or weak momentum instantly.
Divergence Signals: It automatically identifies and plots four types of RSI divergences (Regular Bullish, Hidden Bullish, Regular Bearish, and Hidden Bearish) between the price and the oscillator.
Custom Alerts: Includes alerts for all divergence types so you can be notified when a new signal is found.
This tool helps visualize momentum shifts and potential reversals in the market.
Kinetic Scalper [BULLBYTE]KINETIC SCALPER - ADVANCED MOMENTUM & CONFLUENCE TRADING SYSTEM
A SOPHISTICATED MULTI-FACTOR ANALYSIS INDICATOR FOR PRECISION ENTRIES
The Kinetic Scalper is a comprehensive trading analysis tool that combines volume-weighted momentum calculations, multi-oscillator divergence detection, and a proprietary 15-factor confluence scoring system to identify high-probability reversal setups across all timeframes.
WHAT MAKES THIS INDICATOR ORIGINAL
This is NOT a simple mashup of existing indicators.
The Kinetic Scalper features a completely custom momentum engine called the "Kinetic Pulse" - a volume-weighted momentum oscillator with Fisher Transform normalization that fundamentally differs from standard RSI or other momentum indicators. Every component feeds into a unified algorithmic framework designed specifically for this system.
KEY INNOVATIONS:
KINETIC PULSE ENGINE
Unlike standard RSI which uses simple price changes, the Kinetic Pulse applies:
→ Volume weighting to price movements (high-volume moves carry more weight)
→ EMA smoothing instead of traditional SMA (faster response to changes)
→ Fisher Transform normalization for improved signal clarity
→ Adaptive period adjustment based on current volatility regime
→ Result: A momentum oscillator that responds to conviction, not just price noise
15-FACTOR CONFLUENCE SCORING SYSTEM
Every signal is graded based on the number of confirming factors present:
→ Momentum position (oversold/overbought extremes)
→ Momentum velocity (direction change confirmation)
→ Momentum acceleration (strength of reversal)
→ Multi-oscillator divergence (price vs. 3 oscillators)
→ Volume confirmation (above-average participation)
→ Volume delta analysis (buying vs. selling pressure)
→ Higher timeframe alignment (trend confirmation from larger timeframe)
→ Session timing (major forex session awareness)
→ Structure clearance (clear path to profit targets)
→ Support/resistance proximity (confluence with key levels)
→ Market regime filtering (trending vs. choppy conditions)
Signals are graded A+, A, or B based on how many factors align:
• CONSERVATIVE MODE: A+ requires 12+ factors, A requires 9+, B requires 7+
• BALANCED MODE: A+ requires 10+ factors, A requires 7+, B requires 5+
• AGGRESSIVE MODE: A+ requires 8+ factors, A requires 5+, B requires 3+
TRADE ANALYSIS STATE MACHINE
A sophisticated monitoring system that tracks trade conditions in real-time using:
→ 5-state analysis framework (Factors Aligned / Positive Bias / Mixed Signals / Factors Weakening / Negative Bias)
→ Hysteresis-based transitions (different thresholds to enter vs. exit states)
→ Confidence smoothing with EMA (reduces noise, prevents flip-flopping)
→ Minimum commitment periods before state changes
→ Override logic for significant events (near TP/SL, momentum reversals)
→ Result: Stable, actionable guidance that doesn't change on every bar
INSTRUMENT-AWARE CALIBRATION
Automatically detects what you're trading and applies optimized parameters:
→ Forex Majors: Standard ATR, high session weight
→ Forex Crosses: Tighter stops, moderate session weight
→ Crypto: Wider stops (1.8x multiplier), reduced session weight (24/7 markets)
→ Indices: Moderate-wide stops, high session weight
→ Commodities: Moderate stops, moderate session weight
WHAT THIS INDICATOR DOES
The Kinetic Scalper is designed to identify high-confluence reversal opportunities by analyzing multiple dimensions of market behavior simultaneously.
CORE FUNCTIONS:
1. SIGNAL GENERATION
→ Identifies potential reversal points at oversold/overbought extremes
→ Confirms with multi-oscillator divergence detection
→ Validates with volume, higher timeframe, and structural analysis

→ Projects take profit targets using risk-to-reward ratios
→ Monitors live position status (P/L, distance to targets, R-multiple)
→ Tracks TP1 and TP2 hits automatically
→ Displays outcome markers (TP HIT, PARTIAL WIN, STOPPED)
3. REAL-TIME CONDITION MONITORING
→ Analyzes 6 factor categories during active trades
→ Provides confidence scoring (0-100 scale)
→ Generates actionable guidance based on current market state
→ Alerts when conditions deteriorate or improve
→ Helps with trade management decisions
4. COMPREHENSIVE MARKET ANALYSIS
→ Session detection (Asian, London, New York, Overlap)
→ Volatility regime identification (Low, Normal, High, Extreme)
→ Trend state classification (Trending Up/Down, Ranging, Transitioning)
→ Volume analysis (relative volume and delta approximation)
→ Choppiness filtering (blocks signals in ranging markets)

HOW THE INDICATOR WORKS
SIGNAL GENERATION PROCESS:
STEP 1: MOMENTUM ANALYSIS
The Kinetic Pulse engine calculates volume-weighted momentum:
→ Price changes are weighted by volume ratio vs. 20-bar average
→ High-volume moves have more influence on the oscillator
→ Gains and losses are smoothed using EMA (not SMA like RSI)
→ Fisher Transform is applied for normalization to 0-100 scale
→ Result: Momentum reading that emphasizes conviction, not noise
STEP 2: REVERSAL DETECTION
The indicator looks for potential reversal conditions:
→ Kinetic Pulse reaching oversold zone (below dynamic lower threshold)
→ Momentum velocity turning positive after being negative (for longs)
→ OR bullish divergence detected on multiple oscillators
→ Price making lower lows while oscillators make higher lows = divergence
STEP 3: MULTI-OSCILLATOR DIVERGENCE CONFIRMATION
Divergence is validated across three sources:
→ Kinetic Pulse divergence
→ CCI divergence
→ Stochastic divergence
→ Multiple oscillators confirming divergence increases signal reliability
STEP 4: CONFLUENCE FACTOR SCORING
The system evaluates all 15 possible confirming factors:
→ Momentum position: Is pulse oversold/overbought? (+0 to +2 points)
→ Momentum direction: Is velocity reversing? (+0 to +2 points)
→ Momentum acceleration: Is reversal strengthening? (+0 to +1 point)
→ Divergence count: How many oscillators show divergence? (+0 to +2 points)
→ Volume strength: Is volume above 1.3x average? (+0 to +1 point)
→ Volume delta: Is cumulative delta positive/negative? (+0 to +1 point)
→ HTF alignment: Does higher timeframe support direction? (+0 to +2 points)
→ Session timing: Is it a prime trading session? (+0 to +1 point)
→ Clear air: Is path to targets clear of obstacles? (+0 to +1 point)
→ Structure confluence: Are we near support/resistance? (+0 to +1 point)
→ Market regime: Is market trending, not choppy? (+0 to +1 point)
Total possible score: 15 points
Minimum for signal: 3-12 points depending on sensitivity mode
STEP 5: FILTER VALIDATION
Before generating a signal, additional checks are performed:
→ Volume must be above minimum threshold (if filter enabled)
→ Higher timeframe must not oppose the signal direction (if filter enabled)
→ Target path must be clear of major resistance/support (if filter enabled)
→ Volatility must not be EXTREME (blocks signals in chaos)
→ Risk-to-reward ratio must meet minimum requirement
→ Cooldown period must have elapsed since last signal
STEP 6: SIGNAL GRADING
If all filters pass, the signal is graded based on score:
→ A+ Grade: Highest confluence (8-12+ factors depending on sensitivity)
→ A Grade: High confluence (5-9+ factors)
→ B Grade: Moderate confluence (3-7+ factors)
Only graded signals (A+, A, or B) are displayed.
STEP 7: TRADE LEVEL CALCULATION
Stop loss and targets are calculated automatically:
STOP LOSS METHODS:
• Structure-Based: Uses recent swing low/high with ATR buffer, constrained by min/max ATR limits
• ATR-Based: Pure ATR multiplier with min/max constraints
• Fixed ATR: Simple ATR multiplier, no adjustments
TARGET CALCULATION:
• TP1: Entry ± (Stop Distance × Target 1 R:R)
• TP2: Entry ± (Stop Distance × Target 2 R:R)
• Default: TP1 at 1.0 R:R (1:1), TP2 at 2.0 R:R (1:2)
STEP 8: TRADE MONITORING
Once a signal is taken, the indicator tracks:
→ Current P/L in ticks and R-multiples
→ Distance to each target in ATR units
→ Distance to stop loss in ATR units
→ TP1 hit detection (marks with label, updates lines)
→ TP2 hit detection (closes trade, marks outcome)
→ Stop loss hit detection (closes trade, differentiates partial vs. full loss)
STEP 9: FACTOR ANALYSIS (DURING TRADES)
The Trade Analysis Panel monitors 6 key factor categories:
→ Momentum: Is momentum still aligned with trade direction? (-15 to +15 pts)
→ Position: Current R-multiple position (-12 to +12 pts)
→ Volume: Is volume still supportive? (-6 to +6 pts)
→ HTF Alignment: Does HTF still support trade? (-6 to +8 pts)
→ Target Proximity: How close are we to targets? (0 to +10 pts)
→ Stop Proximity: Are we dangerously close to stop? (-15 to +3 pts)
Raw scores are summed and smoothed using 5-bar EMA to create Confidence Score (0-100).
STEP 10: STATE MACHINE TRANSITIONS
Based on smoothed confidence, the system transitions between 5 states:
→ FACTORS ALIGNED (72+): Everything looks good
→ POSITIVE BIAS (58-72): Conditions favorable
→ MIXED SIGNALS (48-58): Neutral conditions
→ FACTORS WEAKENING (22-48): Concerning signals
→ NEGATIVE BIAS (<22): Poor conditions
Hysteresis prevents rapid flipping between states (different entry/exit thresholds).

• Higher (65-70): More permissive (allows signals in choppier conditions)
HOW TO READ SIGNALS
SIGNAL ANATOMY:
When a signal appears, you'll see:
1. DIRECTIONAL MARKER
→ Arrow, dot, or diamond pointing to entry candle (depends on style)
→ Positioned below price for LONG, above price for SHORT
→ Connected to price with line (Premium style)
2. GRADE BADGE
→ Displays signal quality: LONG , SHORT , etc.
→ Color coding:
• Bright green/cyan for A+ longs
• Standard green for A/B longs
• Bright pink/magenta for A+ shorts
• Standard red for A/B shorts
3. ENTRY PRICE (Premium style only)
→ Shows exact entry price at signal generation
4. TOOLTIP (all styles)
→ Hover over signal to see complete trade plan
→ Includes: Entry, Stop, TP1, TP2, Risk, R:R ratios, market conditions, signal reason, confluence score
INTERPRETING GRADES:
→ A+ SIGNALS (Highest Quality)
• 8-12+ confirming factors aligned
• Multiple divergences OR strong momentum reversal
• HTF alignment + volume + session timing + clear structure
• These are your highest-probability setups
• Recommended action: Give these priority, consider larger position size
→ A SIGNALS (High Quality)
• 5-9+ confirming factors aligned
• Good confluence, most key factors present
• Missing 1-2 optimal conditions
• These are still quality trades
• Recommended action: Standard position size, solid setups
→ B SIGNALS (Moderate Quality)
• 3-7+ confirming factors aligned
• Minimum viable confluence
• May be missing HTF alignment, volume, or session timing
• Higher variance outcomes
• Recommended action: Smaller position size or skip if conservative
SIGNAL NARRATIVE:
Each signal tooltip includes a narrative explaining WHY it was generated:
→ "Multi-divergence at oversold extreme"
• Multiple oscillators showing bullish divergence
• Kinetic Pulse in oversold zone
• High-quality reversal setup
→ "Bullish divergence near support"
• Divergence detected
• Price near key support level (swing low or PDL)
• Structure confluence
→ "Momentum reversal with HTF alignment"
• Kinetic Pulse velocity reversing
• Higher timeframe supports direction
• Strong trend-following setup
→ "Oversold momentum reversal"
• Extreme Kinetic Pulse reading reversing
• May not have divergence but strong momentum shift
READING THE TRADE PLAN:
Every signal comes with a complete trade plan:
→ ENTRY: The close price of the signal candle
• This is where the signal triggered
• If using limit orders, you might improve on this price
→ STOP: Calculated stop loss level
• Based on your Stop Loss Method setting
• Distance shown in ticks
• Risk tolerance: Ensure this represents ≤1-2% of your account
→ TP1: First profit target
• Default: 1:1 risk-reward
• This is your partial profit or first exit
• Consider taking 50% off at TP1
→ TP2: Second profit target
• Default: 1:2 risk-reward
• This is your "full win" target
• Hold remaining position for this level
SIGNAL FREQUENCY EXPECTATIONS:
Frequency varies by timeframe, sensitivity, and market conditions:
→ AGGRESSIVE MODE
• Lower timeframes (1m-5m): 5-15 signals per day
• Mid timeframes (15m-1H): 2-5 signals per day
• Higher timeframes (4H-D): 1-3 signals per week
→ BALANCED MODE (Default)
• Lower timeframes: 3-8 signals per day
• Mid timeframes: 1-3 signals per day
• Higher timeframes: 2-5 signals per week
→ CONSERVATIVE MODE
• Lower timeframes: 1-4 signals per day
• Mid timeframes: 0-2 signals per day
• Higher timeframes: 1-3 signals per week
Note: Frequency also depends on market volatility and trending vs. ranging conditions.

USAGE TIPS & BEST PRACTICES
SIGNAL SELECTION:
✓ GRADE MATTERS
→ A+ signals have statistically more confluence factors
→ If you're conservative, trade only A+ signals
→ B signals can work but require more discretion
✓ CONFLUENCE WITH YOUR ANALYSIS
→ Use this indicator as CONFIRMATION, not sole decision criteria
→ Combine with your own support/resistance analysis
→ Check for fundamental events (news, economic data)
→ Respect major round numbers and psychological levels
✓ SESSION TIMING (Forex)
→ Best signals often occur during London/NY overlap
→ Avoid signals 10 minutes before major news releases
→ Asian session signals can be valid but lower liquidity
✓ TIMEFRAME CONFLUENCE
→ If you get an A+ signal on 15m, check if 1H chart agrees
→ Higher timeframe confirmation adds conviction
→ Avoid signals that oppose the daily/4H trend
TRADE MANAGEMENT:
✓ POSITION SIZING
→ ALWAYS size positions so stop loss = 1-2% of account
→ Never risk more than you can afford to lose
→ Smaller position on B signals, standard on A, larger on A+ (within limits)
✓ PARTIAL PROFIT TAKING
→ Consider taking 50% off at TP1
→ Move stop to breakeven after TP1 hit
→ Let remaining position run to TP2
✓ TRAILING STOPS
→ The indicator doesn't auto-trail stops (manual decision)
→ After TP1, you might manually move stop to entry (breakeven)
→ Consider ATR-based trailing stop for runners
✓ WATCH THE ANALYSIS PANEL
→ If state changes to "Factors Weakening" while in profit, consider exit
→ "Negative Bias" during a trade is a strong warning
→ "Factors Aligned" confirms your trade thesis is still valid
RISK MANAGEMENT:
✓ NEVER IGNORE STOPS
→ The calculated stop is there for a reason
→ Moving stop further away increases risk exponentially
→ If stopped out, accept it and wait for next setup
✓ AVOID REVENGE TRADING
→ If you get stopped out, resist urge to immediately re-enter
→ Signal cooldown helps with this
→ Wait for next qualified signal
✓ RESPECT VOLATILITY WARNINGS
→ If indicator shows "EXTREME" volatility, signals are blocked for a reason
→ Don't force trades in chaotic conditions
→ Wait for regime to normalize
✓ CORRELATION RISK
→ Be aware of correlation if trading multiple pairs
→ EUR/USD and GBP/USD are highly correlated
→ Don't stack risk on correlated instruments
OPTIMIZATION:
✓ START WITH DEFAULTS
→ Default settings are well-tested
→ Don't over-optimize for recent market behavior
→ Give settings at least 20-30 trades before judging
✓ TIMEFRAME-SPECIFIC ADJUSTMENTS
→ Lower timeframes: Consider increasing Signal Distance to 3.0-4.0
→ Higher timeframes: ATR Stop Multiplier might go to 2.0-2.5
→ Crypto: Ensure Instrument Type is set to "Crypto" for proper stops
✓ SENSITIVITY CALIBRATION
→ Too many signals? Switch to Conservative
→ Missing good setups? Try Balanced or Aggressive
→ Quality > Quantity always
✓ KEEP A JOURNAL
→ Track which signal grades work best for you
→ Note which sessions produce best results
→ Review stopped trades for patterns
THINGS TO AVOID:
✗ DON'T chase signals after several bars have passed
✗ DON'T ignore the stop loss or move it further away
✗ DON'T overtrade by taking every B-grade signal
✗ DON'T trade during major news if you're not experienced
✗ DON'T use this as your only analysis tool
✗ DON'T expect 100% win rate (no indicator has this)
✗ DON'T risk more than 1-2% per trade regardless of signal grade
UNDERSTANDING THE METHODOLOGY
WHY VOLUME WEIGHTING?
Traditional momentum oscillators treat all price moves equally. A 10-point move on low volume is weighted the same as a 10-point move on high volume.
The Kinetic Pulse corrects this by:
→ Calculating volume ratio vs. 20-bar average
→ Applying square root transformation to volume ratio (prevents extreme weights)
→ Multiplying price changes by volume weight
→ Result: High-volume moves influence the oscillator more than low-volume noise
This helps filter false breakouts and emphasizes moves with participation.
WHY FISHER TRANSFORM?
Fisher Transform is a mathematical transformation that:
→ Normalizes probability distributions
→ Creates sharper turning points
→ Amplifies extremes while compressing the middle
→ Makes overbought/oversold levels more distinct
Applied to the Kinetic Pulse, it helps identify genuine extremes vs. noise.
WHY MULTI-OSCILLATOR DIVERGENCE?
Single-source divergence can give false signals. By requiring divergence confirmation across multiple oscillators (Kinetic Pulse, CCI, Stochastic), the system filters out:
→ Divergences caused by calculation quirks in one oscillator
→ Temporary momentum anomalies
→ False divergence on noisy, low-timeframe charts
Multiple sources confirming the same pattern increases reliability.
WHY ADAPTIVE PERIODS?
Fixed periods can be:
→ Too slow during high volatility (miss fast reversals)
→ Too fast during low volatility (generate noise)
The adaptive system:
→ Shortens period when ATR ratio > 1.3 (high volatility = need faster response)
→ Lengthens period when ATR ratio < 0.7 (low volatility = need noise filtering)
→ Keeps period in reasonable range (60% to 140% of base period)
→ Result: Oscillator adjusts to current market pace automatically
WHY HYSTERESIS IN STATE MACHINE?
Without hysteresis, the analysis state would flip-flop on every bar, creating:
→ Confusing, contradictory guidance
→ Analysis paralysis
→ Lack of actionable information
Hysteresis solves this by:
→ Using different thresholds to ENTER vs. EXIT a state
→ Example: Enter "Factors Aligned" at 72+ confidence, but don't exit until <62
→ This creates stable states that persist through minor fluctuations
→ Requires minimum commitment period (3 bars) before state changes
→ Overrides commitment for significant events (near TP/SL)
→ Result: Stable, trustworthy analysis that changes only when truly warranted
WHY CONFIDENCE SMOOTHING?
Raw factor scores fluctuate bar-by-bar based on momentary conditions. Smoothing:
→ Uses 5-period EMA on raw confidence scores
→ Filters out single-bar anomalies
→ Preserves genuine trends in confidence
→ Prevents false state transitions
→ Result: More reliable assessment of actual trade health
WHY INSTRUMENT-SPECIFIC PARAMETERS?
Different instruments have different characteristics:
→ Forex is highly liquid, respects technical levels well, standard ATR works
→ Crypto is extremely volatile, needs wider stops (1.8x) to avoid false stops
→ Indices respect session opens strongly, session weighting is important
→ Commodities fall in between
Auto-detection applies research-based multipliers automatically.
WHY STRUCTURE-BASED STOPS?
ATR-based stops can:
→ Place stop in middle of consolidation (easily hit)
→ Ignore obvious invalidation levels
→ Be too tight during expansion or too wide during contraction
Structure-based stops:
→ Use actual swing highs/lows (where traders actually place stops)
→ Add small ATR buffer to avoid stop hunting
→ Constrain within min/max ATR limits for safety
→ Result: Stops that respect market geometry while managing risk

Breadth-Force Oscillator (BFO)Welcome to the Breadth-Force Oscillator! This is a measure of the cumulative volume index relative to price action, and is used for swing trading.
How to read:
This indicator is read primarily through divergences in price, when the BFO is going down that is indicative of an uptrend and when it is going up that is indicative of a downtrend. Changes in the BFO direction give foresight towards shifts in trends.
Features:
This indicator is highly adjustable, and depending on how you adjust it, it may change the results of how you interpret it. This indicator includes multiple smoothing options to reduce noise on smaller time frames and gain more foresight to macro-trends in a given market, and other adjustable features which can be used to further customize.
