Gold/Silver RatioOverview
This indicator displays the Gold/Silver Ratio by dividing the price of gold (XAUUSD) by the price of silver (XAGUSD) on the same timeframe. It is a widely used tool in macroeconomic and precious metals analysis, helping traders and investors evaluate the relative value of gold compared to silver.
📈 What it does
Plots the ratio between gold and silver prices as a line on the chart.
Displays two key horizontal levels:
Overbought level at 90 (dashed red line).
Oversold level at 70 (dashed green line).
Highlights the chart background to show extreme conditions:
Red shading when the ratio exceeds 90 (gold is likely overvalued relative to silver).
Green shading when the ratio drops below 70 (silver is likely overvalued relative to gold).
🧠 How to Use
When the ratio exceeds 90, it suggests that gold may be overbought or silver may be undervalued. Historically, these have been good times to consider shifting exposure from gold to silver.
When the ratio falls below 70, it may indicate silver is overbought or gold is undervalued.
This tool is best used in conjunction with technical analysis, macroeconomic trends, or RSI/Bollinger Bands applied to the ratio.
⚙️ Inputs
This version of the script uses OANDA's XAUUSD and XAGUSD pairs for spot gold and silver prices. You may edit the request.security() calls to change data sources (e.g., FXCM, FOREXCOM, or CFD tickers from your broker).

DDDDD: SET50 (40 Stocks) - % New 52W LowsDDDDD: SET50 - % New 52W Lows (40 Stocks)
This indicator measures the percentage of selected SET50 stocks making a new 52-week low, helping identify periods of extreme market fear that often align with long-term buying opportunities.
How It Works:
Tracks the daily closing prices of 40 major SET50 constituents.
A stock is counted when it closes at its lowest price over the past 252 trading days (approximately 1 year).
Calculates the percentage of new 52-week lows relative to 40 stocks.
Displays threshold lines to highlight levels of market panic.
📈 Threshold Levels:
Threshold Line Color Level (%) Interpretation Action
30% Threshold Orange 30% Early signs of stress Start monitoring opportunities
33% Threshold Yellow 33% Confirmed panic Consider gradual accumulation
50% Panic Zone Red 50% Extreme market panic Aggressive accumulation zone
📌 Important Notes:
Why not use the full 50 stocks?
Due to TradingView Pine Script's current technical limits, a script cannot request data for more than 40 symbols efficiently.
Therefore, this indicator uses 40 representative SET50 stocks to ensure optimal performance without exceeding system limits.
The selected stocks are diversified across major sectors to maintain reliability.
🔥 Key Insights:
Historically, spikes above 30%-50% of stocks making new lows have coincided with major market bottoms (e.g., 2011, 2020).
Higher simultaneous new lows = stronger potential for long-term recovery.

MVA-PMI ModelThe Macroeconomic Volatility-Adjusted PMI Alpha Strategy: A Proprietary Trading Approach
The relationship between macroeconomic indicators and financial markets has been extensively documented in the academic literature (Fama, 1981; Chen et al., 1986). Among these indicators, the Purchasing Managers' Index (PMI) has emerged as a particularly valuable forward-looking metric for economic activity and, by extension, equity market returns (Lahiri & Monokroussos, 2013). The PMI captures manufacturing sentiment before many traditional economic indicators, providing investors with early signals of potential economic regime shifts.
The MVA-PMI trading strategy presented here leverages these temporal advantages through a sophisticated algorithmic framework that extends beyond traditional applications of economic data. Unlike conventional approaches that rely on static thresholds described in previous literature (Koenig, 2002), our proprietary model employs a multi-dimensional analysis of PMI time series data through various moving averages and momentum indicators.
As noted by Beckmann et al. (2020), composite signals derived from economic indicators significantly enhance predictive power compared to simpler univariate models. The MVA-PMI model adopts this principle by synthesizing multiple PMI-derived features through a machine learning optimization process. This approach aligns with Johnson and Watson's (2018) findings that trailing averages of economic indicators often outperform point-in-time readings for investment decision-making.
A distinctive feature of the model is its adaptive volatility mechanism, which draws on the extensive volatility feedback literature (Campbell & Hentschel, 1992; Bollerslev et al., 2011). This component dynamically adjusts position sizing according to market volatility regimes, reflecting the documented inverse relationship between market turbulence and expected returns. Such volatility-based position sizing has been shown to enhance risk-adjusted performance across various strategy types (Harvey et al., 2018).
The model's signal generation employs an asymmetric approach for long and short positions, consistent with Estrada and Vargas' (2016) research highlighting the positive long-term drift in equity markets and the inherently higher risks associated with short selling. This asymmetry is implemented through a proprietary scoring system that synthesizes multiple factors while maintaining different thresholds for bullish and bearish signals.
Extensive backtesting demonstrates that the MVA-PMI strategy exhibits particular strength during economic transition periods, correctly identifying a significant percentage of economic inflection points that preceded major market movements. This characteristic aligns with Croushore and Stark's (2003) observations regarding the value of leading indicators during periods of economic regime change.
The strategy's performance characteristics support the findings of Neely et al. (2014) and Rapach et al. (2010), who demonstrated that macroeconomic-based investment strategies can generate alpha that is distinct from traditional factor models. The MVA-PMI model extends this research by integrating machine learning for parameter optimization, an approach that has shown promise in extracting signal from noisy economic data (Gu et al., 2020).
These findings contribute to the growing literature on systematic macro trading and offer practical implications for portfolio managers seeking to incorporate economic cycle positioning into their allocation frameworks. As noted by Beber et al. (2021), strategies that successfully capture economic regime shifts can provide valuable diversification benefits within broader investment portfolios.

TUF_LOGICTUF_LOGIC: Three-Value Logic for Pine Script v6
The TUF_LOGIC library implements a robust three-valued logic system (trilean logic) for Pine Script v6, providing a formal framework for reasoning about uncertain or incomplete information in financial markets. By extending beyond binary True/False states to include an explicit "Uncertain" state, this library enables more nuanced algorithmic decision-making, particularly valuable in environments characterized by imperfect information.
Core Architecture
TUF_LOGIC offers two complementary interfaces for working with trilean values:
Enum-Based API (Recommended): Leverages Pine Script v6's enum capabilities with Trilean.True , Trilean.Uncertain , and Trilean.False for improved type safety and performance.
Integer-Based API (Legacy Support): Maintains compatibility with existing code using integer values 1 (True), 0 (Uncertain), and -1 (False).
Fundamental Operations
The library provides type conversion methods for seamless interaction between integer representation and enum types ( to_trilean() , to_int() ), along with validation functions to maintain trilean invariants.
Logical Operators
TUF_LOGIC extends traditional boolean operators to the trilean domain with NOT , AND , OR , XOR , and EQUALITY functions that properly handle the Uncertain state according to the principles of three-valued logic.
The library implements three different implication operators providing flexibility for different logical requirements: IMP_K (Kleene's approach), IMP_L (Łukasiewicz's approach), and IMP_RM3 (Relevant implication under RM3 logic).
Inspired by Tarski-Łukasiewicz's modal logic formulations, TUF_LOGIC includes modal operators: MA (Modal Assertion) evaluates whether a state is possibly true; LA (Logical Assertion) determines if a state is necessarily true; and IA (Indeterminacy Assertion) identifies explicitly uncertain states.
The UNANIMOUS operator evaluates trilean values for complete agreement, returning the consensus value if one exists or Uncertain otherwise. This function is available for both pairs of values and arrays of trilean values.
Practical Applications
TUF_LOGIC excels in financial market scenarios where decision-making must account for uncertainty. It enables technical indicator consensus by combining signals with different confidence levels, supports multi-timeframe analysis by reconciling potentially contradictory signals, enhances risk management by explicitly modeling uncertainty, and handles partial information systems where some data sources may be unreliable.
By providing a mathematically sound framework for reasoning about uncertainty, TUF_LOGIC elevates trading system design beyond simplistic binary logic, allowing for more sophisticated decision-making that better reflects real-world market complexity.

RSI + MACD + Liquidity FinderLiquidity Finder: The liquidity zones are heuristic and based on volume and swing points. You may need to tweak the volumeThreshold and lookback to match the asset's volatility and timeframe.
Timeframe: This script works on any timeframe, but signals may vary in reliability (e.g., higher timeframes like 4H or 1D may reduce noise).
Customization: You can modify signal conditions (e.g., require only RSI or MACD) or add filters like trend direction using moving averages.
Backtesting: Use TradingView's strategy tester to evaluate performance by converting the indicator to a strategy (replace plotshape with strategy.entry/strategy.close).
Accurate Global M2 (Top10 GDP, FX-Stabilized)This script was created to solve the serious distortions found in other circulating "Global M2" indicators.
Many previous versions used noisy daily FX rates, unweighted country data, mixed liquidity categories (e.g., RRP, TGA), or aggregated low-quality sources, causing exaggerated or misleading charts.
This version fixes those problems by:
Using Top 10 global economies only (based on GDP).
GDP-weighting each country's M2 contribution.
Fetching monthly-averaged M2 data.
Applying monthly FX conversions to eliminate daily volatility noise.
Forward-shifting the M2 line (default 90 days) to study potential Bitcoin correlations.
Keeping the math clean, without mixing central bank liquidity tools with broad M2 aggregates.
As a result, this script provides a more realistic and stable representation of global M2 expansion in USD terms, more suitable for serious macroeconomic analysis and Bitcoin market correlation studies.
GGG - Market Breadth UST vs GoldThis indicator provides a dynamic macro view between the 10YR U.S. Treasury future market and Gold prices. It combines bond market momentum with gold technical trend confirmation to enhance trading decision-making.
Recommended Timeframes: Suitable for intraday to swing trading setups (e.g., 15-minutes, 1-hour, 4-hour).
Notes:
REMARK: This indicator is designed as a macro filter or confirmation tool. It is highly recommended to use in conjunction with your preferred entry/exit techniques for optimal performance.
Sharpe Ratio Forced Selling StrategyThis study introduces the “Sharpe Ratio Forced Selling Strategy”, a quantitative trading model that dynamically manages positions based on the rolling Sharpe Ratio of an asset’s excess returns relative to the risk-free rate. The Sharpe Ratio, first introduced by Sharpe (1966), remains a cornerstone in risk-adjusted performance measurement, capturing the trade-off between return and volatility. In this strategy, entries are triggered when the Sharpe Ratio falls below a specified low threshold (indicating excessive pessimism), and exits occur either when the Sharpe Ratio surpasses a high threshold (indicating optimism or mean reversion) or when a maximum holding period is reached.
The underlying economic intuition stems from institutional behavior. Institutional investors, such as pension funds and mutual funds, are often subject to risk management mandates and performance benchmarking, requiring them to reduce exposure to assets that exhibit deteriorating risk-adjusted returns over rolling periods (Greenwood and Scharfstein, 2013). When risk-adjusted performance improves, institutions may rebalance or liquidate positions to meet regulatory requirements or internal mandates, a behavior that can be proxied effectively through a rising Sharpe Ratio.
By systematically monitoring the Sharpe Ratio, the strategy anticipates when “forced selling” pressure is likely to abate, allowing for opportunistic entries into assets priced below fundamental value. Exits are equally mechanized, either triggered by Sharpe Ratio improvements or by a strict time-based constraint, acknowledging that institutional rebalancing and window-dressing activities are often time-bound (Coval and Stafford, 2007).
The Sharpe Ratio is particularly suitable for this framework due to its ability to standardize excess returns per unit of risk, ensuring comparability across timeframes and asset classes (Sharpe, 1994). Furthermore, adjusting returns by a dynamically updating short-term risk-free rate (e.g., US 3-Month T-Bills from FRED) ensures that macroeconomic conditions, such as shifting interest rates, are accurately incorporated into the risk assessment.
While the Sharpe Ratio is an efficient and widely recognized measure, the strategy could be enhanced by incorporating alternative or complementary risk metrics:
• Sortino Ratio: Unlike the Sharpe Ratio, the Sortino Ratio penalizes only downside volatility (Sortino and van der Meer, 1991). This would refine entries and exits to distinguish between “good” and “bad” volatility.
• Maximum Drawdown Constraints: Integrating a moving window maximum drawdown filter could prevent entries during persistent downtrends not captured by volatility alone.
• Conditional Value at Risk (CVaR): A measure of expected shortfall beyond the Value at Risk, CVaR could further constrain entry conditions by accounting for tail risk in extreme environments (Rockafellar and Uryasev, 2000).
• Dynamic Thresholds: Instead of static Sharpe thresholds, one could implement dynamic bands based on the historical distribution of the Sharpe Ratio, adjusting for volatility clustering effects (Cont, 2001).
Each of these risk parameters could be incorporated into the current script as additional input controls, further tailoring the model to different market regimes or investor risk appetites.

Sharpe & Sortino Ratio PROSharpe & Sortino Ratio PRO offers an advanced and more precise way to calculate and visualize the Sharpe and Sortino Ratios for financial assets on TradingView. Its main goal is to provide a scientifically accurate method for assessing the risk-adjusted performance of assets, both in the short and long term. Unlike TradingView’s built-in metrics, this script correctly handles periodic returns, uses optional logarithmic returns, properly annualizes both returns and volatility, and adjusts for the risk-free rate — all critical factors for truly meaningful Sharpe and Sortino calculations.
Users can customize the rolling analysis window (e.g., 252 periods for one year on daily data) and the long-term smoothing period (e.g., 1260 periods for five years). There’s also an option to select between linear and logarithmic returns and to manually input a risk-free rate if real-time data from FRED (the 3-Month T-Bill Rate via FRED:DGS3MO) is unavailable. Based on the chart’s timeframe (daily, weekly, or monthly), the script automatically adjusts the risk-free rate to a per-period basis.
The Sharpe Ratio is calculated by first determining the asset’s excess returns (returns after subtracting the risk-free return per period), then computing the average and standard deviation of those excess returns over the specified window, and finally annualizing these figures separately — in line with best scientific practices (Sharpe, 1994). The Sortino Ratio follows a similar approach but only considers negative returns, focusing specifically on downside risk (Sortino & Van der Meer, 1991).
To enhance readability, the script visualizes the ratios using a color gradient: strong negative values are shown in red, neutral values in yellow, and strong positive values in green. Additionally, the long-term averages for both Sharpe and Sortino are plotted with steady colors (teal and orange, respectively), making it easier to spot enduring performance trends.
Why calculating Sharpe and Sortino Ratios manually on TradingView is necessary?
While TradingView provides basic Sharpe and Sortino Ratios, they come with significant methodological flaws that can lead to misleading conclusions about an asset’s true risk-adjusted performance.
First, TradingView often computes volatility based on the standard deviation of price levels rather than returns (TradingView, 2023). This method is problematic because it causes the volatility measure to be directly dependent on the asset’s absolute price. For instance, a stock priced at $1,000 will naturally show larger absolute daily price moves than a $10 stock, even if their percentage changes are similar. This artificially inflates the measured standard deviation and, as a result, depresses the calculated Sharpe Ratio.
Second, TradingView frequently neglects to adjust for the risk-free rate. By treating all returns as risky returns, the computed Sharpe Ratio may significantly underestimate risk-adjusted performance, especially when interest rates are high (Sharpe, 1994).
Third, and perhaps most critically, TradingView doesn’t properly annualize the mean excess return and the standard deviation separately. In correct financial math, the mean excess return should be multiplied by the number of periods per year, while the standard deviation should be multiplied by the square root of the number of periods per year (Cont, 2001; Fabozzi et al., 2007). Incorrect annualization skews the Sharpe and Sortino Ratios and can lead to under- or overestimating investment risk.
These flaws lead to three major issues:
• Overstated volatility for high-priced assets.
• Incorrect scaling between returns and risk.
• Sharpe Ratios that are systematically biased downward, especially in high-price or high-interest environments.
How to properly calculate Sharpe and Sortino Ratios in Pine Script?
To get accurate results, the Sharpe and Sortino Ratios must be calculated using the correct methodology:
1. Use returns, not price levels, to calculate volatility. Ideally, use logarithmic returns for better mathematical properties like time additivity (Cont, 2001).
2. Adjust returns by subtracting the risk-free rate on a per-period basis to obtain true excess returns.
3. Annualize separately:
• Multiply the mean excess return by the number of periods per year (e.g., 252 for daily data).
• Multiply the standard deviation by the square root of the number of periods per year.
4. Finally, divide the annualized mean excess return by the annualized standard deviation to calculate the Sharpe Ratio.
The Sortino Ratio follows the same structure but uses downside deviations instead of standard deviations.
By following this scientifically sound method, you ensure that your Sharpe and Sortino Ratios truly reflect the asset’s real-world risk and return characteristics.

PivotBox by Nadeem Al-QahwiPivotBox by Nadeem Al-Qahwi
General Idea of the Indicator: The PivotBox indicator is an advanced technical analysis tool designed to identify key reversal points in the market based on pivot highs and pivot lows. The indicator helps traders to detect breakout and breakdown opportunities based on past price movements, guiding informed trading decisions.
Indicator Functions:
Key Reversal Points (Pivot Points):
The indicator identifies pivot highs and pivot lows over a user-defined period, helping traders spot significant price levels in the market.
These points are plotted on the chart, showing where market reversals may occur.
Breakouts and Breakdowns:
The indicator identifies breakouts when the price moves above a pivot high or breakdowns when the price falls below a pivot low.
Once these breakouts or breakdowns are detected, the indicator draws lines indicating the critical price levels for visual reference.
Trend Levels using Zero-Lag MA:
The indicator includes an option to add a Zero-Lag Moving Average (Zero-Lag MA) to display the overall trend in the market. This moving average helps filter out noise and identify the general market direction, improving trade decision-making.
Line Styles:
The pivot points (highs and lows) are displayed using different line styles, such as solid, dashed, or dotted lines. The user can customize the style based on their preference.
These lines represent the breakouts or breakdown levels in the market.
Alerts:
The indicator can activate alerts when a breakout or breakdown occurs. Users can customize the alerts to notify them when specific conditions are met, ensuring that they do not miss significant price movements.
Input Variables:
Period (prd): The time period over which the pivot highs and lows are calculated. The user can define this period based on their trading strategy.
Max Breakout Length (bo_len): The maximum time duration for a breakout or breakdown to occur. This variable helps determine the relevance of the price movement.
Threshold Rate (cwidthu): The width percentage that helps to define the price area for breakouts and breakdowns.
Line Style (lstyle): Allows the user to choose the style of lines used to display the pivot points (solid, dashed, or dotted).
Minimum Number of Tests (mintest): The minimum number of tests required before a breakout or breakdown is considered valid.
How the Indicator Works:
The indicator first calculates the pivot highs and lows based on the user-defined period (Period).
It then tracks price movements to detect if a breakout or breakdown occurs.
When a breakout or breakdown is confirmed, the indicator draws lines at these levels and shows the user the new price direction.
Alerts can be triggered based on predefined conditions such as when a breakout or breakdown occurs.
The Zero-Lag MA helps the user visualize the trend, adding another layer of analysis to the market movements.
Key Benefits:
Accurate Reversal Point Analysis: Helps traders identify key entry and exit points based on precise technical analysis.
Breakout and Breakdown Detection: Allows traders to spot breakout and breakdown opportunities in real-time.
Customizable Alerts: Users can set up alerts to notify them when a breakout or breakdown happens, ensuring they don't miss important market moves.
Flexible Customization: The indicator offers various options to customize the display (line styles, alerts, trendlines), catering to different trading strategies.

ICT SMC Liquidity Grabs and OBsICT SMC Liquidity Grabs + Order Blocks + Fibonacci OTE Levels
A High-Probability Entry Engine for Smart Money Concept Traders
This script combines three powerful Smart Money Concepts (SMC) into a single tool: Liquidity Grabs, Order Block Zones, and Fibonacci OTE Levels, allowing traders to identify institutional entry models with clean, rule-based visual signals.
It’s designed to simplify SMC trading by highlighting confluence zones where price is likely to reverse or continue — with clear visual zones, entry arrows, and take profit projections.
🔍 What This Script Does:
Detects Liquidity Grabs
Identifies when price sweeps above/below the highest high or lowest low within a user-defined lookback period and closes back inside.
Plots orange labels on the chart to signal potential liquidity events (LG-H / LG-L).
Plots Order Blocks After Liquidity Grabs
After a liquidity grab, the script looks for displacement candles (strong bullish or bearish moves) and draws highlighted OB zones extending several bars to the right.
These zones represent potential institutional footprints for price reversals.
Draws Fibonacci OTE Levels (Optimal Trade Entry)
Uses recent swing high and low pivots to automatically calculate OTE zones (default: 62% and 75% retracement levels).
Draws these retracement zones for both bullish and bearish setups.
Marks Valid OTE Entry Zones
Buy/Sell zones only trigger when:
A liquidity grab occurs,
Price enters the OTE zone,
And a strong confirming candle is present.
Plots green/red arrows for valid buy/sell OTE entries.
Auto-Draws Take Profit Zones
TP1 = Previous swing high/low
TP2 = Risk-based R-multiplied extension (e.g., 1.5R — customizable)

ICT Turtle Soup Ultimate V2📜 ICT Turtle Soup Ultimate V2 — Advanced Liquidity Reversal System
Overview:
The ICT Turtle Soup Ultimate V2 is a next-generation liquidity reversal indicator built on the principles of smart money concepts (SMC) and the classic ICT Turtle Soup setup. It is designed to detect false breakouts (liquidity grabs) at key swing points, enhanced by proprietary logic that filters out low-quality signals using a combination of trend context, kill zone timing, candle wick behavior, and multi-timeframe imbalance zones.
This tool is ideal for intraday traders seeking high-probability entry signals near liquidity pools and imbalance zones — where smart money makes its move.
🔍 What This Script Does
🧠 Liquidity Grab Detection (Turtle Soup Core Logic)
The script scans for recent swing highs/lows using a user-defined lookback.
A signal is generated when price breaks above/below a previous swing level but closes back inside — indicating a liquidity run and likely reversal.
A special Wick Trap Mode enhances this logic by detecting long-wick fakeouts — where the wick grabs stops but the candle body closes opposite the breakout direction.
📉 Trend Filter with ATR Buffer
Optional trend filter uses a simple moving average (SMA) to gauge market direction.
Instead of hard filtering, it applies an ATR-based buffer to allow for entries near the trend line, reducing signal suppression from micro-fluctuations.
🕰️ Kill Zone Session Filtering
Only show signals during institutional trading hours:
London Session
New York AM
Or any custom user-defined session
Helps traders avoid low-volume hours and focus on where stop hunts and price expansions typically occur.
🧱 Multi-Timeframe FVG Confluence (Optional)
Signal validation is strengthened by checking if price is within a higher timeframe Fair Value Gap — commonly used to identify imbalances or inefficiencies.
Filters out setups that lack underlying displacement or order flow justification.
🎨 Visual Feedback
Plots 🔺 bullish and 🔻 bearish markers at signal candles.
Optionally displays:
Swing High/Low Labels (SH / SL)
Reversal distance labels
Background color shading on valid signals
Includes built-in alerts for automated trade notification.
🔑 Unique Benefits
Wick Trap Detection: A proprietary approach to detecting stop hunts via wick behavior, not just candle closes.
ATR-based trend filtering: Avoids unnecessary filtering while still maintaining directional bias.
All-in-one system: No need to stack multiple indicators — swing detection, reversal logic, session filtering, and imbalance confirmation are all integrated.
💡 How to Use
Enable Wick Trap Mode to detect stealthy liquidity grabs with strong wicks.
Use Kill Zone filters to trade only when institutions are active.
Optionally enable FVG confluence to improve confidence in reversal zones.
Watch for Bullish signals near SL levels and Bearish signals near SH levels.
Combine with your own execution strategy or other SMC tools for optimal results.
🔗 Best Used With:
Maximize your edge by combining this script with complementary SMC-based tools:
✅ First FVG — Opening Range Fair Value Gap Detector
✅ ICT SMC Liquidity Grabs + OB + Fibonacci OTE Levels
✅ Liquidity Levels — Smart Swing Highs and Lows with horizontal line projections
