Mean Reversion & Momentum Hybrid | D_QUANT 📌 Mean Reversion & Momentum Hybrid | D_QUANT
📖 Description:
This indicator combines mean reversion logic, volatility filtering, and percentile-based momentum to deliver clear, context-aware buy/sell signals designed for trend-following and contrarian setups.
At its core, it merges:
A Bollinger Band % Positioning Model (BB%)
A 75th/25th Percentile Momentum System
A Volatility-Adjusted Trend Filter using RMA + ATR
All tied together with a dynamic gradient-style oscillator that visualizes signal strength and persistence over time — making it easy to track high-conviction setups.
Signals only trigger when all three core components align, filtering out noise and emphasizing high-probability turning points or trend continuations.
⚙️ Methodology Overview:
Bollinger Bands % (BB%):
Price is measured as a percentage between upper and lower Bollinger Bands (based on OHLC4). Entries are only considered when price exceeds custom BB% thresholds — emphasizing market extremes.
Volatility-Based Trend Filter (RMA + ATR):
A smoothed RMA baseline is paired with ATR to define trend bias. This ensures signals only occur when price deviates meaningfully beyond recent volatility.
Percentile Momentum Model (75th/25th Rank):
Price is compared against its rolling 75th and 25th percentile. If price breaks these statistical boundaries (adjusted by ATR), it triggers a directional momentum condition.
Signal Consensus Engine:
All three layers must agree — BB% condition, trend filter, and percentile momentum — before a buy or sell signal is plotted.
Gradient Oscillator Visualization:
Signals appear as a fading oscillator line with a gradient-filled area beneath it. The color intensity represents how “fresh” or “strong” the signal is, fading over time if not reconfirmed, offering both clarity and signal aging at a glance.

How it works:
Removes price trend via detrending (moving average subtraction)
Applies a bandpass filter (EMA) to isolate dominant frequency components
Normalizes the signal using a z-score for consistent visibility
Amplifies the signal for easy interpretation
Highlights slope changes with background coloring (green = rising, red = falling)
Use Cases:
Use zero-line crosses to detect cycle shifts or momentum pivots
Combine with trend filters (e.g., GRJMOM) for high-probability setups
Ideal for detecting underlying rhythm in sideways or oscillating markets
Best for:
Swing traders, scalpers, and cycle analysts looking for frequency-aware confirmation signals
Works on all timeframes and asset classes

TDPO-RSI (Time-Decaying Percentile RSI)TDPO-RSI (Time-Decaying Percentile RSI)
TDPO-RSI is a modern, statistically-enhanced momentum indicator that improves on traditional RSI by using percentile-based analysis with exponential time decay. Instead of averaging gains and losses equally, this indicator ranks them by size and weights recent data more heavily—resulting in a more responsive and noise-resistant signal.
How it works:
Calculates percentile rank of gains and losses over a lookback window
Applies a decay factor (lambda) to give more weight to recent price action
Outputs a percentile-based RSI value between 0 and 100
Optional smoothing via EMA for clearer crossover signals
Key Uses:
Identify overbought/oversold zones (default: 70/30)
Use raw vs. smoothed RSI crossovers for entries
Detect momentum shifts earlier than traditional RSI
Suitable for scalping, trend continuation, and reversal setups
Inputs:
Lookback Length: Number of bars used for percentile calculation
Decay Factor (lambda): How quickly older data fades in influence (0.80–0.99)
Smoothing EMA: Smooths the final output to reduce noise
Tip: Combine with price structure and volume for best results. Higher timeframes can be used for trend context, while lower timeframes help with precise entries.
This tool is ideal for traders who want adaptive momentum analysis rooted in statistical behavior.
ATR-Scaled Deviation OscillatorATR-DevOsc is a custom momentum-and-volatility adaptive oscillator that scales N-bar price momentum by its rolling deviation and then reacts dynamically to sudden ATR spikes. By shrinking the deviation window when true volatility surges, it amplifies extreme moves—making medium-term trend shifts and deep drawdowns far more likely to breach your predefined thresholds.
Key features include:
• configurable momentum length and separate deviation length for precise control over look-back periods
• ATR Reaction Multiplier to tune how strongly sudden volatility spikes contract the deviation, boosting oscillator amplitude during extreme moves
• independent upper and lower threshold inputs for clear long/short signal definitions
• integrated candle-coloring overlay to immediately visualize trend state on your price chart
• built-in alert conditions for both oscillator-threshold crossovers and ATR-reactive triggers
This indicator is particularly useful for swing traders seeking medium-term entry and exit points in highly volatile markets like BTC. It combines normalized momentum readings with true volatility feedback, so large drawdowns or breakouts generate unmistakable signal events while routine noise stays filtered.
Note: ATR-DevOsc is provided “as is” without formal robustness or optimization testing. Past performance is not indicative of future results; use in live trading only after sufficient back-testing and validation.
Fibonacci-Based Volume Flow (VFI)Fibonacci-based Volume Flow is an advanced next-generation evolution of LazyBear’s original VFI script that calculates and averages up to 21 Fibonacci-based VFI pairings to create a smoothed composite volume flow signal. This unique and powerful approach reduces noise, adapts to volatility, and provides a clearer view of trend strength and market structure across all timeframes. It also includes dynamic fibonacci guide levels, adaptive lookbacks, EMA crossovers, and structure-aware pivot labeling to help traders identify high-quality reversals, confirm directional bias, and detect divergences with greater precision. It's ideal for traders looking to enhance momentum analysis through volume-based confirmation.
🧠 Key Features🧠
🔹 Multi-VFI Fibonacci Fusion🔹
Blends up to 21 VFI signals (5, 13, 21, 34… up to 610) into smartly paired averages (e.g., 13/34, 55/144) — forming a smoothed composite VFI that’s more adaptive, less noisy, and highly responsive across market conditions.
🔸🔸 Dynamic Lookbacks🔸 🔸
Automatically adjusts histogram high/low tracking based on your chart’s timeframe — no more static tuning. Perfect for scalping fast charts or confirming long-term trends.
🟥🟩 Color-Coded Histogram🟥🟩
Visualizes VFI momentum with gradient coloring.
🧩🧩 Signal Crossovers 🧩🧩
Color-coded crossover lines persistently show bullish or bearish dominance.
Includes three powerful crossover systems:
➖5/13 VFI: Fast, early reversal detection
➖8/21 VFI: Swing-trading sweet spot
➖55/144 VFI: Trend confirmation across long cycles
🏷️ 🏷️Pivot Structure Labels🏷️🏷️
Labels oscillator swings with full structural logic:
➖HH, HL, LH, LL, EQ
➖Displays percent change, price at pivot, oscillator reading
➖Smart coloring detects divergence & trend continuation
📈 📈Dynamic Histogram Guides📈📈
Optional zero and ±50% bands anchor histogram levels based on real histogram extremes, not static thresholds — visually frame momentum shifts with context.
📍 📍Persistent High/Low Pivot Lines📍📍
Track the most significant histogram pivots (not price) across time, with smart labels:
➖Volume flow structure zones
➖Label shows price at pivot, oscillator level, and bars since event
➖Ideal for spotting divergence zones, momentum failures, and trend exhaustion.
🔍 🔍Volatility Table (ATR%)🔍🔍
💡Shows real-time volatility compression or expansion
💡Uses multiple ATR periods (e.g., 14 & 55) for short- and medium-term comparison
💡Helps traders understand whether momentum is likely to continue or stall
🔩🔩Volume-weighted VFI baselines🔩🔩
🟢A daily session-based VWAP of the VFI, which resets each day and highlights intraday volume flow context.
🟠A rolling VWA of VFI, which acts like a VWMA over a fixed window (e.g., 55 bars), smoothing short-term fluctuations and supporting trend/momentum confirmation.
These VWAP-style overlays help traders identify strength vs. weakness relative to volume-weighted baselines — useful for divergence spotting, mean reversion setups, or breakout confirmation.
🧰 🧰Under the Hood: How It Works🧰🧰
🔧 Core VFI Logic
Based on LazyBear’s foundational VFI:
➖Uses log returns of price (HLC3)
➖Filters insignificant moves using volatility-weighted thresholds
➖Normalizes volume via adaptive capping (e.g., 2.5× average)
🌀 Composite Blend System
Each VFI instance is smoothed and then fused via user-selectable pairs. This creates a customizable average VFI representing short, mid, and long-term pressure — one value, many time horizons.
📊 EMA Signal Layer
Crosses trigger persistent color shifts in signal lines, making trend strength clear at a glance.
VFI blend feeds into EMA crossovers. You can toggle visibility for:
➖Fast (5/13)
➖Medium (8/21)
➖Slow (55/144)
🧭 Pivot Framework
Structure logic only compares pivots on same-side polarity:
➖Highs compare to highs above zero
➖Lows compare to lows below zero
This avoids nonsensical comparisons and preserves logical sequences (HH → LH → HL).
🧱 Dynamic Labels
All pivots and persistent levels display:
➖Oscillator value
➖Price value
➖Structure tag (e.g., LH, HL)
➖% change from prior pivot
➖Lookback info
➖Bar age
Unlike traditional VFI:
✅ It blends timeframes with Fibonacci precision
✅ Uses dynamic, volatility-aware logic
✅ Embeds visual structure & divergence intelligence
✅ Enhances entry confidence and exit timing
🔧 This isn’t just an indicator — it’s a volume-informed decision engine.
Ideal For:
🔶Trend-followers wanting cleaner volume-based confirmation
🔶Reversal traders spotting structure + divergence
🔶Scalpers or investors needing adaptable signals
🔶Those who loved LazyBear's VFI
📌 Final Note:
As powerful as Fibonacci Blended Volume Flow is, no single indicator should be used in isolation. For best results, combine it with price action analysis, higher-timeframe context, and complementary tools like trendlines, moving averages, or support/resistance levels. Use it as part of a well-rounded trading approach to confirm setups — not to define them alone.
ZenAlgo - ADXThis open-source indicator builds upon the official Average Directional Index (ADX) implementation by TradingView. It preserves the core logic of the original ADX while introducing additional visualization features, configurability, and analytical overlays to assist with directional strength analysis.
Core Calculation
The script computes the ADX, +DI, and -DI based on smoothed directional movement and true range over a user-defined length. The smoothing is performed using Wilder’s method, as in the original implementation.
True Range is calculated from the current high, low, and previous close.
Directional Movement components (+DM, -DM) are derived by comparing the change in highs and lows between consecutive bars.
These values are then smoothed, and the +DI and -DI are expressed as percentages of the smoothed True Range.
The difference between +DI and -DI is normalized to derive DX, which is further smoothed to yield the ADX value.
The indicator includes a selectable signal line (SMA or EMA) applied to the ADX for crossover-based visualization.
Visualization Enhancements
Several plots and conditions have been added to improve interpretability:
Color-coded histograms and lines visualize DI relative to a configurable threshold (default: 25). Colors follow the ZenAlgo color scheme.
Dynamic opacity and gradient coloring are used for both ADX and DI components, allowing users to distinguish weak/moderate/strong directional trends visually.
Mirrored ADX is internally calculated for certain overlays but not directly plotted.
The script also provides small circles and diamonds to highlight:
Crossovers between ADX and its signal line.
DI crossing above or below the 25 threshold.
Rising ADX confirmed by rising DI values, with point size reflecting ADX strength.
Divergence Detection
The indicator includes optional detection of fractal-based divergences on the DI curve:
Regular and hidden bullish and bearish divergences are identified based on relative fractal highs/lows in both price and DI.
Detected divergences are optionally labeled with 'R' (Regular) or 'H' (Hidden), and color-coded accordingly.
Fractal points are defined using 5-bar patterns to ensure consistency and reduce false positives.
ADX/DI Table
When enabled, a floating table displays live values and summaries:
ADX value , trend direction (rising/falling), and qualitative strength.
DI composite , trend direction, and relative strength.
Contextual power dynamics , describing whether bulls or bears are gaining or losing strength.
The background colors of the table reflect current trend strength and direction.
Interpretation Guidelines
ADX indicates the strength of a trend, regardless of its direction. Values below 20 are often considered weak, while those above 40 suggest strong trending conditions.
+DI and -DI represent bullish and bearish directional movements, respectively. Crossovers between them are used to infer trend direction.
When ADX is rising and either +DI or -DI is dominant and increasing, the trend is likely strengthening.
Divergences between DI and price may suggest potential reversals but should be interpreted cautiously and not in isolation.
The threshold line (default 25) provides a basic filter for ignoring low-strength conditions. This can be adjusted depending on the market or timeframe.
Added Value over Existing Indicators
Fully color-graded ADX and DI display for better visual clarity.
Optional signal MA over ADX with crossover markers.
Rich contextual labeling for both divergence and threshold events.
Power dynamics commentary and live table help users contextualize current momentum.
Customizable options for smoothing type, divergence display, table position, and visual offsets.
These additions aim to improve situational awareness without altering the fundamental meaning of ADX/DI values.
Limitations and Disclaimers
As with any ADX-based tool, this indicator does not indicate market direction alone —it measures strength, not trend bias.
Divergence detection relies on fractal patterns and may lag or produce false positives in sideways markets.
Signal MA crossovers and DI threshold breaks are not entry signals , but contextual markers that may assist with timing or filtering other systems.
The table text and labels are for visual assistance and do not replace proper technical analysis or market context.

Time-Decaying Percentile Oscillator [BackQuant]Time-Decaying Percentile Oscillator
1. Big-picture idea
Traditional percentile or stochastic oscillators treat every bar in the look-back window as equally important. That is fine when markets are slow, but if volatility regime changes quickly yesterday’s print should matter more than last month’s. The Time-Decaying Percentile Oscillator attempts to fix that blind spot by assigning an adjustable weight to every past price before it is ranked. The result is a percentile score that “breathes” with market tempo much faster to flag new extremes yet still smooth enough to ignore random noise.
2. What the script actually does
Build a weight curve
• You pick a look-back length (default 28 bars).
• You decide whether weights fall Linearly , Exponentially , by Power-law or Logarithmically .
• A decay factor (lower = faster fade) shapes how quickly the oldest price loses influence.
• The array is normalised so all weights still sum to 1.
Rank prices by weighted mass
• Every close in the window is paired with its weight.
• The pairs are sorted from low to high.
• The cumulative weight is walked until it equals your chosen percentile level (default 50 = median).
• That price becomes the Time-Decayed Percentile .
Find dispersion with robust statistics
• Instead of a fragile standard deviation the script measures weighted Median-Absolute-Deviation about the new percentile.
• You multiply that deviation by the Deviation Multiplier slider (default 1.0) to get a non-parametric volatility band.
Build an adaptive channel
• Upper band = percentile + (multiplier × deviation)
• Lower band = percentile – (multiplier × deviation)
Normalise into a 0-100 oscillator
• The current close is mapped inside that band:
0 = lower band, 50 = centre, 100 = upper band.
• If the channel squeezes, tiny moves still travel the full scale; if volatility explodes, it automatically widens.
Optional smoothing
• A second-stage moving average (EMA, SMA, DEMA, TEMA, etc.) tames the jitter.
• Length 22 EMA by default—change it to tune reaction speed.
Threshold logic
• Upper Threshold 70 and Lower Threshold 30 separate standard overbought/oversold states.
• Extreme bands 85 and 15 paint background heat when aggressive fade or breakout trades might trigger.
Divergence engine
• Looks back twenty bars.
• Flags Bullish divergence when price makes a lower low but oscillator refuses to confirm (value < 40).
• Flags Bearish divergence when price prints a higher high but oscillator stalls (value > 60).
3. Component walk-through
• Source – Any price series. Close by default, switch to typical price or custom OHLC4 for futures spreads.
• Look-back Period – How many bars to rank. Short = faster, long = slower.
• Base Percentile Level – 50 shows relative position around the median; set to 25 / 75 for quartile tracking or 90 / 10 for extreme tails.
• Deviation Multiplier – Higher values widen the dynamic channel, lowering whipsaw but delaying signals.
• Decay Settings
– Type decides the curve shape. Exponential (default 1.16) mimics EMA logic.
– Factor < 1 shrinks influence faster; > 1 spreads influence flatter.
– Toggle Enable Time Decay off to compare with classic equal-weight stochastic.
• Smoothing Block – Choose one of seven MA flavours plus length.
• Thresholds – Overbought / Oversold / Extreme levels. Push them out when working on very mean-reverting assets like FX; pull them in for trend monsters like crypto.
• Display toggles – Show or hide threshold lines, extreme filler zones, bar colouring, divergence labels.
• Colours – Bullish green, bearish red, neutral grey. Every gradient step is automatically blended to generate a heat map across the 0-100 range.
4. How to read the chart
• Oscillator creeping above 70 = market auctioning near the top of its adaptive range.
• Fast poke above 85 with no follow-through = exhaustion fade candidate.
• Slow grind that lives above 70 for many bars = valid bullish trend, not a fade.
• Cross back through 50 shows balance has shifted; treat it like a micro trend change.
• Divergence arrows add extra confidence when you already see two-bar reversal candles at range extremes.
• Background shading (semi-transparent red / green) warns of extreme states and throttles your position size.
5. Practical trading playbook
Mean-reversion scalps
1. Wait for oscillator to reach your desired OB/ OS levels
2. Check the slope of the smoothing MA—if it is flattening the squeeze is mature.
3. Look for a one- or two-bar reversal pattern.
4. Enter against the move; first target = midline 50, second target = opposite threshold.
5. Stop loss just beyond the extreme band.
Trend continuation pullbacks
1. Identify a clean directional trend on the price chart.
2. During the trend, TDP will oscillate between midline and extreme of that side.
3. Buy dips when oscillator hits OS levels, and the same for OB levels & shorting
4. Exit when oscillator re-tags the same-side extreme or prints divergence.
Volatility regime filter
• Use the Enable Time Decay switch as a regime test.
• If equal-weight oscillator and decayed oscillator diverge widely, market is entering a new volatility regime—tighten stops and trade smaller.
Divergence confirmation for other indicators
• Pair TDP divergence arrows with MACD histogram or RSI to filter false positives.
• The weighted nature means TDP often spots divergence a bar or two earlier than standard RSI.
Swing breakout strategy
1. During consolidation, band width compresses and oscillator oscillates around 50.
2. Watch for sudden expansion where oscillator blasts through extreme bands and stays pinned.
3. Enter with momentum in breakout direction; trail stop behind upper or lower band as it re-expands.
6. Customising decay mathematics
Linear – Each older bar loses the same fixed amount of influence. Intuitive and stable; good for slow swing charts.
Exponential – Influence halves every “decay factor” steps. Mirrors EMA thinking and is fastest to react.
Power-law – Mid-history bars keep more authority than exponential but oldest data still fades. Handy for commodities where seasonality matters.
Logarithmic – The gentlest curve; weight drops sharply at first then levels off. Mimics how traders remember dramatic moves for weeks but forget ordinary noise quickly.
Turn decay off to verify the tool’s added value; most users never switch back.
7. Alert catalogue
• TD Overbought / TD Oversold – Cross of regular thresholds.
• TD Extreme OB / OS – Breach of danger zones.
• TD Bullish / Bearish Divergence – High-probability reversal watch.
• TD Midline Cross – Momentum shift that often precedes a window where trend-following systems perform.
8. Visual hygiene tips
• If you already plot price on a dark background pick Bullish Color and Bearish Color default; change to pastel tones for light themes.
• Hide threshold lines after you memorise the zones to declutter scalping layouts.
• Overlay mode set to false so the oscillator lives in its own panel; keep height about 30 % of screen for best resolution.
9. Final notes
Time-Decaying Percentile Oscillator marries robust statistical ranking, adaptive dispersion and decay-aware weighting into a simple oscillator. It respects both recent order-flow shocks and historical context, offers granular control over responsiveness and ships with divergence and alert plumbing out of the box. Bolt it onto your price action framework, trend-following system or volatility mean-reversion playbook and see how much sooner it recognises genuine extremes compared to legacy oscillators.
Backtest thoroughly, experiment with decay curves on each asset class and remember: in trading, timing beats timidity but patience beats impulse. May this tool help you find that edge.

Fisher Crossover StrategyThe Fisher Crossover Strategy is a popular technical trading method that uses the Fisher Transform indicator developed by John Ehlers. This indicator mathematically converts price data into a normal Gaussian distribution, making market turning points sharper and easier to identify. The strategy is based on two lines: the Fisher line, which is the main transformed price value, and the Trigger line, which is a one-period lag of the Fisher line. Traders use the crossover of these lines to determine buy and sell opportunities.
A buy signal is generated when the Fisher line crosses above the Trigger line, indicating that bullish momentum may be starting, while a sell signal occurs when the Fisher line crosses below the Trigger line, suggesting a possible bearish reversal. Signals that occur relative to the zero line are often considered stronger; for example, a buy signal below the zero line may indicate a deeper market reversal. The strategy is simple to follow and can be applied to various markets including stocks, forex, commodities, and cryptocurrencies.
However, like all crossover strategies, it can produce false signals during sideways or ranging markets. To reduce whipsaws, traders often combine the Fisher Crossover Strategy with other tools such as support and resistance levels, volume analysis, or moving averages. Proper risk management with stop-loss and take-profit levels is also essential. Overall, the Fisher Crossover Strategy is valued for its clear entry and exit rules and its ability to highlight potential market reversals earlier than many other indicators.

Time-Price Velocity [QuantAlgo]🟢 Overview
The Time-Price Velocity indicator uses advanced velocity-based analysis to measure the rate of price change normalized against typical market movement, creating a dynamic momentum oscillator that identifies market acceleration patterns and momentum shifts. Unlike traditional momentum indicators that focus solely on price change magnitude, this indicator incorporates time-weighted displacement calculations and ATR normalization to create a sophisticated velocity measurement system that adapts to varying market volatility conditions.
This indicator displays a velocity signal line that oscillates around zero, with positive values indicating upward price velocity and negative values indicating downward price velocity. The signal incorporates acceleration background columns and statistical normalization to help traders identify momentum shifts and potential reversal or continuation opportunities across different timeframes and asset classes.
🟢 How It Works
The indicator's key insight lies in its time-price velocity calculation system, where velocity is measured using the fundamental physics formula:
velocity = priceChange / timeWeight
The system normalizes this raw velocity against typical price movement using Average True Range (ATR) to create market-adjusted readings:
normalizedVelocity = typicalMove > 0 ? velocity / typicalMove : 0
where "typicalMove = ta.atr(lookback)" provides the baseline for normal price movement over the specified lookback period.
The Time-Price Velocity indicator calculation combines multiple sophisticated components. First, it calculates acceleration as the change in velocity over time:
acceleration = normalizedVelocity - normalizedVelocity
Then, the signal generation applies EMA smoothing to reduce noise while preserving responsiveness:
signal = ta.ema(normalizedVelocity, smooth)
This creates a velocity-based momentum indicator that combines price displacement analysis with statistical normalization, providing traders with both directional signals and acceleration insights for enhanced market timing.
🟢 How to Use
1. Signal Interpretation and Threshold Zones
Positive Values (Above Zero): Time-price velocity indicating bullish momentum with upward price displacement relative to normalized baseline
Negative Values (Below Zero): Time-price velocity indicating bearish momentum with downward price displacement relative to normalized baseline
Zero Line Crosses: Velocity transitions between bullish and bearish regimes, indicating potential trend changes or momentum shifts
Upper Threshold Zone: Area above positive threshold (default 1.0) indicating strong bullish velocity and potential reversal point
Lower Threshold Zone: Area below negative threshold (default -1.0) indicating strong bearish velocity and potential reversal point
2. Acceleration Analysis and Visual Features
Acceleration Columns: Background histogram showing velocity acceleration (the rate of change of velocity), with green columns indicating accelerating velocity and red columns indicating decelerating velocity. The interpretation depends on trend context: red columns in downtrends indicate strengthening bearish momentum, while red columns in uptrends indicate weakening bullish momentum
Acceleration Column Height: The height of each column represents the magnitude of acceleration, with taller columns indicating stronger acceleration or deceleration forces
Bar Coloring: Optional price bar coloring matches velocity direction for immediate visual trend confirmation

FEDFUNDS Rate Divergence Oscillator [BackQuant]FEDFUNDS Rate Divergence Oscillator
1. Concept and Rationale
The United States Federal Funds Rate is the anchor around which global dollar liquidity and risk-free yield expectations revolve. When the Fed hikes, borrowing costs rise, liquidity tightens and most risk assets encounter head-winds. When it cuts, liquidity expands, speculative appetite often recovers. Bitcoin, a 24-hour permissionless asset sometimes described as “digital gold with venture-capital-like convexity,” is particularly sensitive to macro-liquidity swings.
The FED Divergence Oscillator quantifies the behavioural gap between short-term monetary policy (proxied by the effective Fed Funds Rate) and Bitcoin’s own percentage price change. By converting each series into identical rate-of-change units, subtracting them, then optionally smoothing the result, the script produces a single bounded-yet-dynamic line that tells you, at a glance, whether Bitcoin is outperforming or underperforming the policy backdrop—and by how much.
2. Data Pipeline
• Fed Funds Rate – Pulled directly from the FRED database via the ticker “FRED:FEDFUNDS,” sampled at daily frequency to synchronise with crypto closes.
• Bitcoin Price – By default the script forces a daily timeframe so that both series share time alignment, although you can disable that and plot the oscillator on intraday charts if you prefer.
• User Source Flexibility – The BTC series is not hard-wired; you can select any exchange-specific symbol or even swap BTC for another crypto or risk asset whose interaction with the Fed rate you wish to study.
3. Math under the Hood
(1) Rate of Change (ROC) – Both the Fed rate and BTC close are converted to percent return over a user-chosen lookback (default 30 bars). This means a cut from 5.25 percent to 5.00 percent feeds in as –4.76 percent, while a climb from 25 000 to 30 000 USD in BTC over the same window converts to +20 percent.
(2) Divergence Construction – The script subtracts the Fed ROC from the BTC ROC. Positive values show BTC appreciating faster than policy is tightening (or falling slower than the rate is cutting); negative values show the opposite.
(3) Optional Smoothing – Macro series are noisy. Toggle “Apply Smoothing” to calm the line with your preferred moving-average flavour: SMA, EMA, DEMA, TEMA, RMA, WMA or Hull. The default EMA-25 removes day-to-day whips while keeping turning points alive.
(4) Dynamic Colour Mapping – Rather than using a single hue, the oscillator line employs a gradient where deep greens represent strong bullish divergence and dark reds flag sharp bearish divergence. This heat-map approach lets you gauge intensity without squinting at numbers.
(5) Threshold Grid – Five horizontal guides create a structured regime map:
• Lower Extreme (–50 pct) and Upper Extreme (+50 pct) identify panic capitulations and euphoria blow-offs.
• Oversold (–20 pct) and Overbought (+20 pct) act as early warning alarms.
• Zero Line demarcates neutral alignment.
4. Chart Furniture and User Interface
• Oscillator fill with a secondary DEMA-30 “shader” offers depth perception: fat ribbons often precede high-volatility macro shifts.
• Optional bar-colouring paints candles green when the oscillator is above zero and red below, handy for visual correlation.
• Background tints when the line breaches extreme zones, making macro inflection weeks pop out in the replay bar.
• Everything—line width, thresholds, colours—can be customised so the indicator blends into any template.
5. Interpretation Guide
Macro Liquidity Pulse
• When the oscillator spends weeks above +20 while the Fed is still raising rates, Bitcoin is signalling liquidity tolerance or an anticipatory pivot view. That condition often marks the embryonic phase of major bull cycles (e.g., March 2020 rebound).
• Sustained prints below –20 while the Fed is already dovish indicate risk aversion or idiosyncratic crypto stress—think exchange scandals or broad flight to safety.
Regime Transition Signals
• Bullish cross through zero after a long sub-zero stint shows Bitcoin regaining upward escape velocity versus policy.
• Bearish cross under zero during a hiking cycle tells you monetary tightening has finally started to bite.
Momentum Exhaustion and Mean-Reversion
• Touches of +50 (or –50) come rarely; they are statistically stretched events. Fade strategies either taking profits or hedging have historically enjoyed positive expectancy.
• Inside-bar candlestick patterns or lower-timeframe bearish engulfings simultaneously with an extreme overbought print make high-probability short scalp setups, especially near weekly resistance. The same logic mirrors for oversold.
Pair Trading / Relative Value
• Combine the oscillator with spreads like BTC versus Nasdaq 100. When both the FED Divergence oscillator and the BTC–NDQ relative-strength line roll south together, the cross-asset confirmation amplifies conviction in a mean-reversion short.
• Swap BTC for miners, altcoins or high-beta equities to test who is the divergence leader.
Event-Driven Tactics
• FOMC days: plot the oscillator on an hourly chart (disable ‘Force Daily TF’). Watch for micro-structural spikes that resolve in the first hour after the statement; rapid flips across zero can front-run post-FOMC swings.
• CPI and NFP prints: extremes reached into the release often mean positioning is one-sided. A reversion toward neutral in the first 24 hours is common.
6. Alerts Suite
Pre-bundled conditions let you automate workflows:
• Bullish / Bearish zero crosses – queue spot or futures entries.
• Standard OB / OS – notify for first contact with actionable zones.
• Extreme OB / OS – prime time to review hedges, take profits or build contrarian swing positions.
7. Parameter Playground
• Shorten ROC Lookback to 14 for tactical traders; lengthen to 90 for macro investors.
• Raise extreme thresholds (for example ±80) when plotting on altcoins that exhibit higher volatility than BTC.
• Try HMA smoothing for responsive yet smooth curves on intraday charts.
• Colour-blind users can easily swap bull and bear palette selections for preferred contrasts.
8. Limitations and Best Practices
• The Fed Funds series is step-wise; it only changes on meeting days. Rapid BTC oscillations in between may dominate the calculation. Keep that perspective when interpreting very high-frequency signals.
• Divergence does not equal causation. Crypto-native catalysts (ETF approvals, hack headlines) can overwhelm macro links temporarily.
• Use in conjunction with classical confirmation tools—order-flow footprints, market-profile ledges, or simple price action to avoid “pure-indicator” traps.
9. Final Thoughts
The FEDFUNDS Rate Divergence Oscillator distills an entire macro narrative monetary policy versus risk sentiment into a single colourful heartbeat. It will not magically predict every pivot, yet it excels at framing market context, spotting stretches and timing regime changes. Treat it as a strategic compass rather than a tactical sniper scope, combine it with sound risk management and multi-factor confirmation, and you will possess a robust edge anchored in the world’s most influential interest-rate benchmark.
Trade consciously, stay adaptive, and let the policy-price tension guide your roadmap.
Smart MTF Bias Detector v3 (Debug)Here's a breakdown of the "Smart MTF Bias Detector v3 (Debug)" indicator's five main filters:
Main Trend (Multi-Timeframe Heikin Ashi)
The green/red background indicates the trend from Heikin Ashi candles on the H1 timeframe (or your set timeframe).
If the Heikin Ashi candle closes above its open, the background is green (indicating an upward bias).
If the Heikin Ashi candle closes below its open, the background is red (indicating a downward bias).
Short-Term Trend Filter (EMA50)
The yellow line represents the EMA50.
Buy only when the price closes above the EMA50.
Sell only when the price closes below the EMA50.
Abnormal Buy/Sell Pressure Detection (Volume Spike)
Purple dots signify candles where the volume is greater than the SMA (Simple Moving Average) of volume over N previous candles, multiplied by a specified multiplier.
This confirms there's "force" driving the price up or serious selling pressure.
Momentum Filter (Stochastic RSI)
Blue upward triangles and orange downward triangles indicate when %K crosses %D.
It uses Oversold/Overbought targets (20/80) to avoid crosses in the middle ranges.
Pivot Break (Fractal Breakout)
Red "X" marks represent Fractal Highs, and green "X" marks represent Fractal Lows.
Red/green up/down arrows indicate breakouts of these levels (e.g., a previous High being broken means an upward breakout, or a previous Low being broken means a downward breakout).
BUY Signal Conditions
A BUY signal will be generated when:
The background is green (HTF Trend ↑).
The Stoch RSI crosses up from below the Oversold zone (blue arrow).
A Fractal Low breakout occurs (Fract UP arrow).
The price is above the EMA50.
There is a Volume Spike (purple dot).
SELL Signal Conditions
A SELL signal will be generated when:
The background is red (HTF Trend ↓).
The Stoch RSI crosses down from above the Overbought zone (orange arrow).
A Fractal High breakout occurs (Fract DOWN arrow).
The price is below the EMA50.
There is a Volume Spike (purple dot).

WT_CROSS Dip Buy Signal(ozkan)This script identifies potential buy opportunities based on WaveTrend (WT_CROSS) momentum crossing below the -60 level — often indicating oversold conditions.
Additional filters include price being above the Kaufman Adaptive Moving Average (KAMA) and volume below the 5-period average, which helps isolate pullbacks within an uptrend.
Buy Signal Conditions:
WT1 < -60
Price > KAMA
Volume < 5-period SMA of volume
Purpose:
To capture early entries at possible local bottoms during bullish trends while avoiding high-volume breakdown traps.
🔔 You can also set an alert based on this condition.
MERV: Market Entropy & Rhythm Visualizer [BullByte]The MERV (Market Entropy & Rhythm Visualizer) indicator analyzes market conditions by measuring entropy (randomness vs. trend), tradeability (volatility/momentum), and cyclical rhythm. It provides traders with an easy-to-read dashboard and oscillator to understand when markets are structured or choppy, and when trading conditions are optimal.
Purpose of the Indicator
MERV’s goal is to help traders identify different market regimes. It quantifies how structured or random recent price action is (entropy), how strong and volatile the movement is (tradeability), and whether a repeating cycle exists. By visualizing these together, MERV highlights trending vs. choppy environments and flags when conditions are favorable for entering trades. For example, a low entropy value means prices are following a clear trend line, whereas high entropy indicates a lot of noise or sideways action. The indicator’s combination of measures is original: it fuses statistical trend-fit (entropy), volatility trends (ATR and slope), and cycle analysis to give a comprehensive view of market behavior.
Why a Trader Should Use It
Traders often need to know when a market trend is reliable vs. when it is just noise. MERV helps in several ways: it shows when the market has a strong direction (low entropy, high tradeability) and when it’s ranging (high entropy). This can prevent entering trend-following strategies during choppy periods, or help catch breakouts early. The “Optimal Regime” marker (a star) highlights moments when entropy is very low and tradeability is very high, typically the best conditions for trend trades. By using MERV, a trader gains an empirical “go/no-go” signal based on price history, rather than guessing from price alone. It’s also adaptable: you can apply it to stocks, forex, crypto, etc., on any timeframe. For example, during a bullish phase of a stock, MERV will turn green (Trending Mode) and often show a star, signaling good follow-through. If the market later grinds sideways, MERV will shift to magenta (Choppy Mode), warning you that trend-following is now risky.
Why These Components Were Chosen
Market Entropy (via R²) : This measures how well recent prices fit a straight line. We compute a linear regression on the last len_entropy bars and calculate R². Entropy = 1 - R², so entropy is low when prices follow a trend (R² near 1) and high when price action is erratic (R² near 0). This single number captures trend strength vs noise.
Tradeability (ATR + Slope) : We combine two familiar measures: the Average True Range (ATR) (normalized by price) and the absolute slope of the regression line (scaled by ATR). Together they reflect how active and directional the market is. A high ATR or strong slope means big moves, making a trend more “tradeable.” We take a simple average of the normalized ATR and slope to get tradeability_raw. Then we convert it to a percentile rank over the lookback window so it’s stable between 0 and 1.
Percentile Ranks : To make entropy and tradeability values easy to interpret, we convert each to a 0–100 rank based on the past len_entropy periods. This turns raw metrics into a consistent scale. (For example, an entropy rank of 90 means current entropy is higher than 90% of recent values.) We then divide by 100 to plot them on a 0–1 scale.
Market Mode (Regime) : Based on those ranks, MERV classifies the market:
Trending (Green) : Low entropy rank (<40%) and high tradeability rank (>60%). This means the market is structurally trending with high activity.
Choppy (Magenta) : High entropy rank (>60%) and low tradeability rank (<40%). This is a mostly random, low-momentum market.
Neutral (Cyan) : All other cases. This covers mixed regimes not strongly trending or choppy.
The mode is shown as a colored bar at the bottom: green for trending, magenta for choppy, cyan for neutral.
Optimal Regime Signal : Separately, we mark an “optimal” condition when entropy_norm < 0.3 and tradeability > 0.7 (both normalized 0–1). When this is true, a ★ star appears on the bottom line. This star is colored white when truly optimal, gold when only tradeability is high (but entropy not quite low enough), and black when neither condition holds. This gives a quick visual cue for very favorable conditions.
What Makes MERV Stand Out
Holistic View : Unlike a single-oscillator, MERV combines trend, volatility, and cycle analysis in one tool. This multi-faceted approach is unique.
Visual Dashboard : The fixed on-chart dashboard (shown at your chosen corner) summarizes all metrics in bar/gauge form. Even a non-technical user can glance at it: more “█” blocks = a higher value, colors match the plots. This is more intuitive than raw numbers.
Adaptive Thresholds : Using percentile ranks means MERV auto-adjusts to each market’s character, rather than requiring fixed thresholds.
Cycle Insight : The rhythm plot adds information rarely found in indicators – it shows if there’s a repeating cycle (and its period in bars) and how strong it is. This can hint at natural bounce or reversal intervals.
Modern Look : The neon color scheme and glow effects make the lines easy to distinguish (blue/pink for entropy, green/orange for tradeability, etc.) and the filled area between them highlights when one dominates the other.
Recommended Timeframes
MERV can be applied to any timeframe, but it will be more reliable on higher timeframes. The default len_entropy = 50 and len_rhythm = 30 mean we use 30–50 bars of history, so on a daily chart that’s ~2–3 months of data; on a 1-hour chart it’s about 2–3 days. In practice:
Swing/Position traders might prefer Daily or 4H charts, where the calculations smooth out small noise. Entropy and cycles are more meaningful on longer trends.
Day trader s could use 15m or 1H charts if they adjust the inputs (e.g. shorter windows). This provides more sensitivity to intraday cycles.
Scalpers might find MERV too “slow” unless input lengths are set very low.
In summary, the indicator works anywhere, but the defaults are tuned for capturing medium-term trends. Users can adjust len_entropy and len_rhythm to match their chart’s volatility. The dashboard position can also be moved (top-left, bottom-right, etc.) so it doesn’t cover important chart areas.
How the Scoring/Logic Works (Step-by-Step)
Compute Entropy : A linear regression line is fit to the last len_entropy closes. We compute R² (goodness of fit). Entropy = 1 – R². So a strong straight-line trend gives low entropy; a flat/noisy set of points gives high entropy.
Compute Tradeability : We get ATR over len_entropy bars, normalize it by price (so it’s a fraction of price). We also calculate the regression slope (difference between the predicted close and last close). We scale |slope| by ATR to get a dimensionless measure. We average these (ATR% and slope%) to get tradeability_raw. This represents how big and directional price moves are.
Convert to Percentiles : Each new entropy and tradeability value is inserted into a rolling array of the last 50 values. We then compute the percentile rank of the current value in that array (0–100%) using a simple loop. This tells us where the current bar stands relative to history. We then divide by 100 to plot on .
Determine Modes and Signal : Based on these normalized metrics: if entropy < 0.4 and tradeability > 0.6 (40% and 60% thresholds), we set mode = Trending (1). If entropy > 0.6 and tradeability < 0.4, mode = Choppy (-1). Otherwise mode = Neutral (0). Separately, if entropy_norm < 0.3 and tradeability > 0.7, we set an optimal flag. These conditions trigger the colored mode bars and the star line.
Rhythm Detection : Every bar, if we have enough data, we take the last len_rhythm closes and compute the mean and standard deviation. Then for lags from 5 up to len_rhythm, we calculate a normalized autocorrelation coefficient. We track the lag that gives the maximum correlation (best match). This “best lag” divided by len_rhythm is plotted (a value between 0 and 1). Its color changes with the correlation strength. We also smooth the best correlation value over 5 bars to plot as “Cycle Strength” (also 0 to 1). This shows if there is a consistent cycle length in recent price action.
Heatmap (Optional) : The background color behind the oscillator panel can change with entropy. If “Neon Rainbow” style is on, low entropy is blue and high entropy is pink (via a custom color function), otherwise a classic green-to-red gradient can be used. This visually reinforces the entropy value.
Volume Regime (Dashboard Only) : We compute vol_norm = volume / sma(volume, len_entropy). If this is above 1.5, it’s considered high volume (neon orange); below 0.7 is low (blue); otherwise normal (green). The dashboard shows this as a bar gauge and percentage. This is for context only.
Oscillator Plot – How to Read It
The main panel (oscillator) has multiple colored lines on a 0–1 vertical scale, with horizontal markers at 0.2 (Low), 0.5 (Mid), and 0.8 (High). Here’s each element:
Entropy Line (Blue→Pink) : This line (and its glow) shows normalized entropy (0 = very low, 1 = very high). It is blue/green when entropy is low (strong trend) and pink/purple when entropy is high (choppy). A value near 0.0 (below 0.2 line) indicates a very well-defined trend. A value near 1.0 (above 0.8 line) means the market is very random. Watch for it dipping near 0: that suggests a strong trend has formed.
Tradeability Line (Green→Yellow) : This represents normalized tradeability. It is colored bright green when tradeability is low, transitioning to yellow as tradeability increases. Higher values (approaching 1) mean big moves and strong slopes. Typically in a market rally or crash, this line will rise. A crossing above ~0.7 often coincides with good trend strength.
Filled Area (Orange Shade) : The orange-ish fill between the entropy and tradeability lines highlights when one dominates the other. If the area is large, the two metrics diverge; if small, they are similar. This is mostly aesthetic but can catch the eye when the lines cross over or remain close.
Rhythm (Cycle) Line : This is plotted as (best_lag / len_rhythm). It indicates the relative period of the strongest cycle. For example, a value of 0.5 means the strongest cycle was about half the window length. The line’s color (green, orange, or pink) reflects how strong that cycle is (green = strong). If no clear cycle is found, this line may be flat or near zero.
Cycle Strength Line : Plotted on the same scale, this shows the autocorrelation strength (0–1). A high value (e.g. above 0.7, shown in green) means the cycle is very pronounced. Low values (pink) mean any cycle is weak and unreliable.
Mode Bars (Bottom) : Below the main oscillator, thick colored bars appear: a green bar means Trending Mode, magenta means Choppy Mode, and cyan means Neutral. These bars all have a fixed height (–0.1) and make it very easy to see the current regime.
Optimal Regime Line (Bottom) : Just below the mode bars is a thick horizontal line at –0.18. Its color indicates regime quality: White (★) means “Optimal Regime” (very low entropy and high tradeability). Gold (★) means not quite optimal (high tradeability but entropy not low enough). Black means neither condition. This star line quickly tells you when conditions are ideal (white star) or simply good (gold star).
Horizontal Guides : The dotted lines at 0.2 (Low), 0.5 (Mid), and 0.8 (High) serve as reference lines. For example, an entropy or tradeability reading above 0.8 is “High,” and below 0.2 is “Low,” as labeled on the chart. These help you gauge values at a glance.
Dashboard (Fixed Corner Panel)
MERV also includes a compact table (dashboard) that can be positioned in any corner. It summarizes key values each bar. Here is how to read its rows:
Entropy : Shows a bar of blocks (█ and ░). More █ blocks = higher entropy. It also gives a percentage (rounded). A full bar (10 blocks) with a high % means very chaotic market. The text is colored similarly (blue-green for low, pink for high).
Rhythm : Shows the best cycle period in bars (e.g. “15 bars”). If no calculation yet, it shows “n/a.” The text color matches the rhythm line.
Cycle Strength : Gives the cycle correlation as a percentage (smoothed, as shown on chart). Higher % (green) means a strong cycle.
Tradeability : Displays a 10-block gauge for tradeability. More blocks = more tradeable market. It also shows “gauge” text colored green→yellow accordingly.
Market Mode : Simply shows “Trending”, “Choppy”, or “Neutral” (cyan text) to match the mode bar color.
Volume Regime : Similar to tradeability, shows blocks for current volume vs. average. Above-average volume gives orange blocks, below-average gives blue blocks. A % value indicates current volume relative to average. This row helps see if volume is abnormally high or low.
Optimal Status (Large Row) : In bold, either “★ Optimal Regime” (white text) if the star condition is met, “★ High Tradeability” (gold text) if tradeability alone is high, or “— Not Optimal” (gray text) otherwise. This large row catches your eye when conditions are ripe.
In short, the dashboard turns the numeric state into an easy read: filled bars, colors, and text let you see current conditions without reading the plot. For instance, five blue blocks under Entropy and “25%” tells you entropy is low (good), and a row showing “Trending” in green confirms a trend state.
Real-Life Example
Example : Consider a daily chart of a trending stock (e.g. “AAPL, 1D”). During a strong uptrend, recent prices fit a clear upward line, so Entropy would be low (blue line near bottom, perhaps below the 0.2 line). Volatility and slope are high, so Tradeability is high (green-yellow line near top). In the dashboard, Entropy might show only 1–2 blocks (e.g. 10%) and Tradeability nearly full (e.g. 90%). The Market Mode bar turns green (Trending), and you might see a white ★ on the optimal line if conditions are very good. The Volume row might light orange if volume is above average during the rally. In contrast, imagine the same stock later in a tight range: Entropy will rise (pink line up, more blocks in dashboard), Tradeability falls (fewer blocks), and the Mode bar turns magenta (Choppy). No star appears in that case.
Consolidated Use Case : Suppose on XYZ stock the dashboard reads “Entropy: █░░░░░░░░ 20%”, “Tradeability: ██████████ 80%”, Mode = Trending (green), and “★ Optimal Regime.” This tells the trader that the market is in a strong, low-noise trend, and it might be a good time to follow the trend (with appropriate risk controls). If instead it reads “Entropy: ████████░░ 80%”, “Tradeability: ███▒▒▒▒▒▒ 30%”, Mode = Choppy (magenta), the trader knows the market is random and low-momentum—likely best to sit out until conditions improve.
Example: How It Looks in Action
Screenshot 1: Trending Market with High Tradeability (SOLUSD, 30m)
What it means:
The market is in a clear, strong trend with excellent conditions for trading. Both trend-following and active strategies are favored, supported by high tradeability and strong volume.
Screenshot 2: Optimal Regime, Strong Trend (ETHUSD, 1h)
What it means:
This is an ideal environment for trend trading. The market is highly organized, tradeability is excellent, and volume supports the move. This is when the indicator signals the highest probability for success.
Screenshot 3: Choppy Market with High Volume (BTC Perpetual, 5m)
What it means:
The market is highly random and choppy, despite a surge in volume. This is a high-risk, low-reward environment, avoid trend strategies, and be cautious even with mean-reversion or scalping.
Settings and Inputs
The script is fully open-source; here are key inputs the user can adjust:
Entropy Window (len_entropy) : Number of bars used for entropy and tradeability (default 50). Larger = smoother, more lag; smaller = more sensitivity.
Rhythm Window (len_rhythm ): Bars used for cycle detection (default 30). This limits the longest cycle we detect.
Dashboard Position : Choose any corner (Top Right default) so it doesn’t cover chart action.
Show Heatmap : Toggles the entropy background coloring on/off.
Heatmap Style : “Neon Rainbow” (colorful) or “Classic” (green→red).
Show Mode Bar : Turn the bottom mode bar on/off.
Show Dashboard : Turn the fixed table panel on/off.
Each setting has a tooltip explaining its effect. In the description we will mention typical settings (e.g. default window sizes) and that the user can move the dashboard corner as desired.
Oscillator Interpretation (Recap)
Lines : Blue/Pink = Entropy (low=trend, high=chop); Green/Yellow = Tradeability (low=quiet, high=volatile).
Fill : Orange tinted area between them (for visual emphasis).
Bars : Green=Trending, Magenta=Choppy, Cyan=Neutral (at bottom).
Star Line : White star = ideal conditions, Gold = good but not ideal.
Horizontal Guides : 0.2 and 0.8 lines mark low/high thresholds for each metric.
Using the chart, a coder or trader can see exactly what each output represents and make decisions accordingly.

RSI Divergence(CompactFX)This is the standard "RSI" with "divergence" displayed. Additionally, it has the following features:
- The line color shifts above and below the RSI 50 threshold.
- The MA can be displayed on the RSI.
- Signs of an expected reversal are displayed.
**Examples of Use**
*For Swing Traders
In addition to using the standard RSI, the divergence display can serve as a trigger for further consideration.
*For Scalpers
For athletic traders who prefer intuition over logic and calculation, we recommend customizing the RSI color to your liking for bulls and bears. Consider extending the price until the RSI color changes. Below is my example.
-One-Minute Scalping
When prices are moving above the long-term and short-term MAs, you can hold a position as long as the RSI is above 55 (below 45 for bears). In this case, pivot signs can also be used as a guide for closing positions. Of course, this is best done during periods of high momentum. Five- and 15-minute scalping also works well. However, these only work if you adhere to my logic. Don't forget to adhere to your own logic and framework.
The above is just an example. Feel free to use it as you like.
