Autocorrelation OscillatorReleasing the autocorrelation oscillator.
NOTE! Please be sure to read the description. This is a theoretical indicator and its important to understand the theory behind its use.
About the indicator:
Before getting into the indicator and its functionality, its important to discuss the theoretical underpinnings of the indicator.
The autocorrelation oscillator operates on two theories of market behaviour that go hand in hand. Those theories are the market efficiency theory and the random walk theory (or hypothesis ).
Market efficiency theory: The market efficiency theory or "Efficient Market Hypothesis (EMH)" postulates that all available information is reflected in a ticker's price almost instantaneously and thus it is impossible for an investor or trader to get ahead of the market because we cannot respond to the speed that the market responds. Of course, there are many holes in this theory, the most notable being that the market is a function of humans. Absent humans and their technological integrations into the market, the market would cease to react at all. But that's besides the point. This is a widely accepted theory and one in which I can mathematically observe through statistical tests. The truth behind this theory is the market is efficient for responding to evolving economic and financial information, likely owning to huge amounts of computer and algorithmic integration into trading, and thus the market is more efficient than the average person is capable (absent computerized algorithms and integration) of ascertaining nuanced financial and economic circumstances. By the time we the people can appraise information, the market has already acted on it. And that is the main premise of the EMH.
The next theory is the Random Walk Theory or Hypothesis (RWH). This builds on the EMH and essentially postulates that the market reacts so quickly to price in current circumstances that it is too random for people to truly exploit and benefit from.
The result of these two theories is two-fold and can be summarized as such:
a) The market behaves in a chaotic fashion that is seemingly random and is incapable of being predicted effectively; and
b) The market is more efficient than a person in incorporating key fundamental information, contributing to the high degree of seemingly random behaviour.
So, how does this help us?
It is said, because of the EMH and the RWH, the only way to truly exploit the market for profit is by:
a) Buying and holding and investing under the bias that stocks will eventually rise in value; or
b) For short term trading, exploiting the pricing anomalies within the data.
So how do we exploit pricing anomalies within the data?
Well, in my own research on market efficiency and behaviour, I have identified many ways of figuring out some anomalies. One of the most effective ways is by looking at simple correlation of lagged values, or autocorrelation for short.
What is autocorrelation and how to use it in relation to EMH and RWH?
Autocorrelation refers to the correlative relationship among the values in a series. Put simply, its the relationship of the same variable over time. For example, if we wanted to look at the auto-correlation of a ticker's high price, we would take, say, 5 to 7 previous high prices and correlate them with the current high price in a series dataset. If the EMH and RWH are true, the correlation among all the variables should have an average less than 0.5 or greater than -0.5. This would indicate true randomness in the dataset and thus an efficient market.
However, if the average of all of the sum's of these correlations are greater than or equal to 0.5 or less than or equal to -0.5, that indicates there is a high degree of autocorrelation and thus the EMH ad RWH is being invalidated as the market is not operating efficiently. This is an anomaly and this anomaly can be exploited.
So how do we exploit it?
Well, when the EMH and RWH hypothesis is being invalidated, we can expect what I coin as a "Regression to Chaos" i.e. the market will revert back to an efficient equilibrium state. So if we have a high correlation of the lagged variables and a strong uptrend or downtrend correlation, we can expect an inefficient market to correct back to an efficient market (i.e. have a reversal from the current trend).
So how does the indicator work?
The indicator measures the lagged correlation of the previous 5 highs and lows of a ticker. A high correlation among all of the highs and lows that exceeds 0.8 would be an invalidation of the EMH and RWH and thus signal a correction to come (i.e. a Regression to Chaos).
The indicator will display this by changing colour. Red for a bearish reversal and green for a bullish. Let's take a look below using the ticker MSFT:
Above we can see the indicator identifying observed inefficiencies within the MSFT ticker on the 1 minute timeframe. The green vertical lines correspond to potential bullish reversals as a result of bearish inefficiencies, the red correspond to bearish reversals as a result of bullish inefficiencies.
You can see these lead to reversals within the ticker.
Components of the indicator:
In the chart above we see the following that are being indicated by arrows:
Red Arrows: Show the identified inefficiencies. Red for bullish inefficiencies (i.e. bearish reversal), green for bearish inefficiencies (i.e. bullish reversal)
Yellow Arrow: The lagged variable chart. This will display the current correlation among all the lagged variables the indicator is assessing.
Teal arrow: Displays the current strength of the trend by correlating the trend to time. A strong negative value (i.e. a value less than or equal to -0.5) indicates a strong downtrend, a strong positive value indicates the inverse.
You can unselect the data-tables in the settings menu if you just want to view the correlation line itself. This part of the indicator is customizable. You can also define the lookback period; however, it is strongly recommended to leave it at 14 as this maintains the use of this indicator as an oscillator.
And that is the indicator! Let me know your comments, questions and feedback below.
Safe trades everyone!

Alpha Trading - Pseudo Laplace Z ScoreAlpha Trading - Pseudo Laplace Z Score
Slowly, very slowly a lot of quant and statistical methods have diffused the world of traditional technical analysis with the world of real math - VEPS (Volatility, Entropy, Probability and Statistics).
‘Alpha Trading' is showing the world how VEPS can show the best probabilities of success with your trading journey.
We send a big thank you to tradingview platform and pine coding team, for this great platform and the possibility to show the methods to trade with quant and statistical methods.
There appears to be resistance in the industry about these methods, so it is even more important now than ever, to support this awesome platform and amazing talented team at trading view and pine coders who enable us all with this wonderful platform to produce tools based on VEPS (Volatility, Entropy, Probability and Statistics).
The newest indicator from the Alpha Trading stable is the “Pseudo Laplace Z Score” which combines the established statistical method of z score applied on asset data. Which is based on our previous indicator called the “Alpha Trading – RMS-Z score”. We have made some optimizations, to give an even better fit to the specific returns of price. Optimizations are on the observation that returns are more Laplace distributed than Normal distributed.
figure 1: pink distribution of the real signal (BTC, 2D), gray is perfect theoretical Laplace distribution.
Therefore, the data is not Normal distributed, but Laplace distributed. Our new indicator calculates the real Z-Score of an underlying asset.
As Z Score is a standardized Normal distribution, it relies upon the definition of Normal distribution. If it deviates from this, it still can give useful information, but the absolute value (distance from the mean in standard deviations) is not reliable, and therefore the use of Normal distribution has some uncertainties.
Therefore, this indicator calculates a pseudo standard deviation, based on the Laplace distribution formulas and the relating Z Score.
By looking at the resulting distribution of the indicator itself, it is close to a perfect theoretical Normal distribution. It is much closer to the theoretical curve (gray), and thus indicates that the use of this approach is correct. Now we can show absolute values (i.e. distance to mean, in standard deviations) which can thus be considered to assist in determining the probabilities with your trading.
figure 2: distribution of indicator AT - Pseudo Laplace Z Score vs a theoretical perfect Normal distribution on BTC 4h
Looking at the indicator directly, it appears that the probability of 99% is crossed very rarely, like expected. Because only 1% of all candles we would expect this probability line to be exceeded.
figure 3: BTC 8h with AT-Pseudo Laplace Z Score
Coming back to the method of a Z Score in general. What is a Z-Score?
A Z-score is a numerical measurement that describes a value's relationship to the mean of a group of values. Z-score is measured in terms of standard deviations from the mean. If a Z-score is 0, it indicates that the data point's score is identical to the mean score. A Z-score of 1.0 would indicate a value that is one standard deviation from the mean. Z-scores may be positive or negative, with a positive value indicating the score is above the mean and a negative score indicating it is below the mean.
Simply put, a z-score (also called a standard score) gives you an idea of how far from the mean a data point is.
Basic guidelines How to Use this indicator:
Consider Entering a Long Position when the indicator is low. Best moves are generally when the indicator Turns yellow(outlier)
Consider Entering a Short Position when the indicator is high. Best moves are generally when the indicator Turns yellow(outlier)
Consider the 3 confidence interval lines (gray lines) at 90%, 95%, and 99%, as possible reversal point (with related probability that it is not getting exceeded 🡪 reversal)
Relative Trend Index (RTI) by Zeiierman█ Overview
The Relative Trend Index (RTI) developed by Zeiierman is an innovative technical analysis tool designed to measure the strength and direction of the market trend. Unlike some traditional indicators, the RTI boasts a distinctive ability to adapt and respond to market volatility, while still minimizing the effects of minor, short-term market fluctuations.
The Relative Trend Index blends trend-following and mean-reverting characteristics, paired with a customizable and intuitive approach to trend strength, and its sensitivity to price action makes this indicator stand out.
█ Benefits of using this RTI instead of RSI
The Relative Strength Index (RSI) and the Relative Trend Index (RTI) are both powerful technical indicators, each with its own unique strengths.
However, there are key differences that make the RTI arguably more sophisticated and precise, especially when it comes to identifying trends and overbought/oversold (OB/OS) areas.
The RSI is a momentum oscillator that measures the speed and change of price movements and is typically used to identify overbought and oversold conditions in a market. However, its primary limitation lies in its tendency to produce false signals during extended trending periods.
On the other hand, the RTI is designed specifically to identify and adapt to market trends. Instead of solely focusing on price changes, the RTI measures the relative positioning of the current closing price within its recent range, providing a more comprehensive view of market conditions.
The RTI's adaptable nature is particularly valuable. The user-adjustable sensitivity percentage allows traders to fine-tune the indicator's responsiveness, making it more resilient to sudden market fluctuations and noise that could otherwise produce false signals. This feature is advantageous in various market conditions, from trending to choppy and sideways-moving markets.
Furthermore, the RTI's unique method of defining OB/OS zones takes into account the prevailing trend, which can provide a more precise reflection of the market's condition.
While the RSI is an invaluable tool in many traders' toolkits, the RTI's unique approach to trend identification, adaptability, and enhanced definition of OB/OS zones can provide traders with a more nuanced understanding of market conditions and potential trading opportunities. This makes the RTI an especially powerful tool for those seeking to ride long-term trends and avoid false signals.
█ Calculations
In summary, while simple enough, the math behind the RTI indicator is quite powerful. It combines the quantification of price volatility with the flexibility to adjust the trend sensitivity. It provides a normalized output that can be interpreted consistently across various trading scenarios.
The math behind the Relative Trend Index (RTI) indicator is rooted in some fundamental statistical concepts: Standard Deviation and Percentiles.
Standard Deviation: The Standard Deviation is a measure of dispersion or variability in a dataset. It quantifies the degree to which each data point deviates from the mean (or average) of the data set. In this script, the standard deviation is computed on the 'close' prices over a specified number of periods. This provides a measure of the volatility in the price over that period. The higher the standard deviation, the more volatile the price has been.
Percentiles: The percentile is a measure used in statistics indicating the value below which a given percentage of observations in a group falls. After calculating the upper and lower trends for the last 'length' periods and sorting these values, the script uses the 'Sensitivity ' parameter to extract percentiles from these sorted arrays. This is a powerful concept because it allows us to adjust the sensitivity of our signals. By choosing different percentiles (controlled through the 'Sensitivity' parameter), we can decide whether we want to react only to extreme events (high percentiles) or be more reactive and consider smaller deviations from the norm as significant (lower percentiles).
Finally, the script calculates the Relative Trend Index value, which is essentially a normalized measure indicating where the current price falls between the upper and lower trend values. This simple ratio is incredibly powerful as it provides a standardized measure that can be used across different securities and market conditions to identify potential trading signals.
Core Components
Trend Data Count: This parameter denotes the number of data points used in the RTI's calculation, determining the trend length. A higher count captures a more extended market view (long-term trend), providing smoother results that are more resistant to sudden market changes. In contrast, a lower count focuses on more recent data (short-term trend), yielding faster responses to market changes, albeit at the cost of increased susceptibility to market noise.
Trend Sensitivity Percentage: This parameter is employed to select the indices within the trend arrays used for upper and lower trend definitions. By adjusting this value, users can affect the sensitivity of the trend, with higher percentages leading to a less sensitive trend.
█ How to use
The RTI plots a line that revolves around a mid-point of 50. When the RTI is above 50, it implies that the market trend is bullish (upward), and when it's below 50, it indicates a bearish (downward) trend. Furthermore, the farther the RTI deviates from the 50 line, the stronger the trend is perceived to be.
Bullish
Bearish
The RTI includes user-defined Overbought and Oversold levels. These thresholds suggest potential trading opportunities when they are crossed, serving as a cue for traders to possibly buy or sell. This gives the RTI an additional use case as a mean-reversion tool, in addition to being a trend-following indicator.
In short
Trend Confirmation and Reversals: If the percentage trend value is consistently closer to the upper level, it can indicate a strong uptrend. Similarly, if it's closer to the lower level, a downtrend may be in play. If the percentage trend line begins to move away from one trend line towards the other, it could suggest a potential trend reversal.
Identifying Overbought and Oversold Conditions: When the percentage trend value reaches the upper trend line (signified by a value of 1), it suggests an overbought condition - i.e., the price has been pushed up, perhaps too far, and could be due for a pullback, or indicating a strong positive trend. Conversely, when the percentage trend value hits the lower trend line (a value of 0), it indicates an oversold condition - the price may have been driven down and could be set to rebound, or indicate a strong negative trend. Traders often use these overbought and oversold signals as contrarian indicators, considering them potential signs to sell (in overbought conditions) or buy (in oversold conditions). If the RTI line remains overbought or oversold for an extended period, it indicates a strong trend in that direction.
█ Settings
One key feature of the RTI is its configurability. It allows users to set the trend data length and trend sensitivity.
The trend data length represents the number of data points used in the trend calculation. A longer trend data length will reflect a more long-term trend, whereas a shorter trend data length will capture short-term movements.
Trend sensitivity refers to the threshold for determining what constitutes a significant trend. High sensitivity levels will deem fewer price movements as significant, hence making the trend less sensitive. Conversely, low sensitivity levels will deem more price movements as significant, hence making the trend more sensitive.

The WAVE line will change colour to alert you when price is potentially pivoting.
When the WAVE is WHITE, the trend is currently Bearish but could flip bullish soon.
When the WAVE is GREEN, the trend is Bullish and there is strong Bullish momentum.
When the WAVE is ORANGE, it means trend is bullish but there is danger of a Bearish Reversal.
When the WAVE is PINK it means there is strong Bearish Momentum.
WAVETrend Scanner
The WAVETrend Scanner can be enabled in the settings and gives you a quick overview of the current trend across 8 potential timeframes:
You can use this to make sure the trades you are taking on lower timeframes align with the current bias on higher term timeframes, thus ensuring a higher chance of success.
WAVE Colours
The background colour of the WAVE also changes according to the current trend across multiple timeframes. The scanner is constantly measuring the current trend across 7 timeframes;
When 4 timeframes line up Bullish, the WAVE is LIGHT BLUE (Cyan)
When 5 timeframes line up Bullish, the WAVE is DARK BLUE (Navy)
When 6+ timeframes line up Bullish, the WAVE is GREEN
When 4 timeframes line up Bearish, the WAVE is ORANGE
When 5 timeframes line up Bearish, the WAVE is RED
When 6+ timeframes line up Bearish, the WAVE is PINK
Divergence Checker & Buy/Sell Signals
The BUY and SELL Signals are represented by a BLUE or RED Histogram line that extends from the WAVE to the 0 Line.
A BUY signal shows when a Crossover occurs & there is a Bullish Diversion Present within the last 50 bars.
A SELL signal appears when a Crossunder occurs & there is Bearish Diversion present within the last 50 bars.
You can change the length of the Divergence Checker in the settings, default is 50 bars.
Under The Hood
The WAVE pulls information from multiple sources within a set period such as;
Close Price
Highest Price
Lowest Price
EMA
The script applies a set of complicated algebraic equations. Which essentially measures the and of recent price action.
Then it uses EMA's to measure from the and , whilst applying more weight to recent price action.
The functions then calculate more averages which measure the difference from and .
Next, it uses all of these calculated averages to create a value that represents the current WAVE condition. This calculation will determine whether the WAVE is in a bullish or bearish trend.
This sum is then smoothed out to get one more value, which is used to display the info box content that allows us to see exactly at what price the WAVE will keep rising or keep falling.
One final calculation also predicts the point at which the WAVE will flip trend. It uses similar calculations to the "Keep Rising/Falling" prediction function, but its aim is to predict the exact price at which the WAVE will cross.
What gives the WAVE indicator an edge over most Stochastic Indicators, is how it uses Pinescript's "request.security" function to pull information from multiple timeframes in order to generate plots, info data and colours to add much more relevant information to the chart which you can use to make informed trading decisions. This is what allows the WAVETrend Scanner to work.
The WAVE indicator is designed to work with all markets and asset types.

Unlike the MACD, it can give you a better understanding of the overall trend. Values above 0 is bullish and below 0 bearish. It consists of two cycles: Black histogram - the long-term cycle and orange histogram - the short-term cycle, as well as timing signal (red line).
RSI MTF [Market Yogi]The Multi-Time Frame RSI with Money Flow Index and Average is a powerful trading indicator designed to help traders identify overbought and oversold conditions across multiple time frames. It combines the Relative Strength Index (RSI) with the Money Flow Index (MFI) and provides an average value for better accuracy.
The Relative Strength Index (RSI) is a popular momentum oscillator that measures the speed and change of price movements. It oscillates between 0 and 100 and is used to identify overbought and oversold conditions in an asset. By incorporating the RSI across multiple time frames, this indicator offers a broader perspective on market sentiment.
In addition to the RSI, this indicator also includes the Money Flow Index (MFI). The MFI is a volume-based oscillator that measures the inflow and outflow of money into an asset. It takes into account both price and volume, providing insights into the strength and direction of buying and selling pressure.
By combining the RSI and MFI across multiple time frames, traders gain a comprehensive understanding of market dynamics. The indicator allows for comparing the RSI and MFI values across different time frames, enabling traders to identify divergences and potential trend reversals.
Furthermore, this indicator provides an average value of the multi-time frame RSI, offering a consolidated signal that helps filter out noise and enhance the accuracy of trading decisions.
Key Features:
1. Multi-Time Frame RSI: Combines the RSI across different time frames to provide a comprehensive view of market sentiment.
2. Money Flow Index (MFI): Incorporates the MFI to gauge buying and selling pressure based on both price and volume.
3. Average Calculation: Computes the average value of the multi-time frame RSI to generate a consolidated trading signal.
4. Divergence Detection: Enables traders to spot divergences between the RSI and MFI values, indicating potential trend reversals.
5. Overbought and Oversold Levels: Highlights overbought and oversold levels on the RSI, aiding in timing entry and exit points.
The Multi-Time Frame RSI with Money Flow Index and Average is a versatile tool that can be applied to various trading strategies, including trend following, swing trading, and mean reversion. Traders can adjust the time frame settings to suit their preferences and trading style.
Note: It's important to use this indicator in conjunction with other technical analysis tools and indicators to validate signals and make informed trading decisions.
Linear Correlation Coefficient W/ MAs and Significance TestsThis Linear CC takes into account the log-normal distribution of stock prices and performs Pearson correlation on that data set. It also smoothens the results into an easy to read oscillator, and performs a two-tail t-test on the correlation coefficient data (with a = 0.05) to determine the significance of the coefficients. Significant results are shown in a solid yellow color while insignificant results are shown in a dark yellow color (you can eyeball this with a normal LCC by looking at results around -0.5 to +0.5).
Two MAs are provided as well for a quick trend analysis. You can reduce the lookback period, but it defaults to 31 for the sake of statistical standards.
Futures All List / Sell SignalAs of May 2023, there are more than 180 usdt perpetual coins on the binance futures exchange. These coins are included in the indicator in lists of 40. They are sorted instantly in the table from largest to smallest. The sorting style can be changed in the indicator settings. This indicator collects RSI and TSI values at desired values. The result has a maximum value of 600. A value of 600 signals that the price will decrease or remain stable for a certain period of time. Generally, a short can be expected from the closest point to 600. If 3 separate lists are selected by using 3 of these indicators, 120 coins can be analyzed at the same time. Available in all time zones. Examine it in a 3-minute timeframe. The line inside the indicator draws the instantaneous values of the relevant coin.
Bensler COT OscillatorI tried to replicate the indicator I think Jason Shapiro from Crowded Market Report has kind of alluded to on his interviews and YouTube channel. I think I made the default colors on my indicator match Shapiro's. It's best if used in parallel with the indicator CoT-Buschi which is a nice COT indicator that I based my oscillator off of. That way you can see the effect of the oscillator and decide if you like how the time period affects the output. I am a total noob so just in case you think I know what I'm talking about or doing, I don't.

The Oscillator toolkit works in any market and timeframe for discretionary analysis and includes many oscillators and features:
█ Oscillators
WaveTrend Momentum
The WaveTrend Momentum oscillator is a significant component of the toolkit. It factors in both the direction and the momentum of market trends. The waves within this system are both quick and responsive, operating independently to offer the most pertinent insights at the most opportune moments. Their rapid response time ensures that traders receive timely information, which is essential in the fast-paced, dynamic world of trading.
Example of how to use the WaveTrend Momentum Oscialltor
The WaveTrend Momentum is proficient at identifying trend reversals and pullbacks, allowing traders to enter or exit trades at optimal moments.
Leading RSI
The Leading Relative Strength Index (RSI) is a type of momentum oscillator that is commonly used in technical analysis to predict price movements. As the name suggests, it is an advanced form of the traditional Relative Strength Index (RSI), and it provides traders with more timely signals for market entries and exits.
The Leading RSI works on similar principles but is designed to provide signals ahead of the traditional RSI. This is achieved through more advanced mathematical modeling and calculations, which aim to identify shifts in market momentum before they happen. It takes into account not only the current price action but also considers historical data in a way that can foresee changes in trend directions.
Example of how to use the Leading RSI
The Leading RSI is an enhanced version of the traditional Relative Strength Index, offering more timely indications of divergences and overbought or oversold market conditions.
Momentum Oscillator
This oscillator measures the amount that a security's price has changed over a given time span. It is an excellent tool for understanding the strength of a trend and its potential endurance. When the momentum oscillator rises, it suggests that the price is moving upwards and vice versa.
The Momentum Oscillator is an advanced technical analysis tool that helps traders identify the rate of change or the momentum of the market. It is typically used to determine the strength or speed at which the price of an asset increases or decreases for a set of returns. This oscillator is considered 'fast-moving' and 'sensitive' because it responds quickly to changes in price momentum. The fast-moving nature of this oscillator helps traders to get early signals for potential market entry or exit points.
The Momentum Oscillator analyzes the current price compared to the previous price and adds two additional layers of analysis: 'Buy & Sell moves' and 'Extremes.'
Buy & Sell Moves: This layer of the oscillator helps identify the buying and selling pressure in the market. This can provide traders with valuable information about the possible direction of future price moves. When there is high buying pressure (demand), the price tends to rise, and when there is high selling pressure (supply), the price tends to fall.
Extremes: This layer helps to identify extreme overbought or oversold conditions. When the oscillator enters the overbought territory, it could indicate that the price is at a high and could potentially reverse. Conversely, if the oscillator enters the oversold territory, it could suggest that the price is at a low and could potentially rebound.
Example of how to use the Momentum Oscillator
The Momentum Oscillator is a sensitive and fast-moving oscillator that adapts quickly to price changes while keeping track of the long-term momentum, making it easier to spot buying or selling opportunities in trends.
Bellcurves
The Bellcurves indicator is a powerful tool for traders that uses statistical analysis to help identify potential market reversals and key support and resistance levels by leveraging the principles of statistical analysis to measure market impulses. The concept behind this tool is the normal distribution, also known as the bell curve, which is a fundamental statistical concept signifying that data tends to cluster around the average or mean value. The "impulses" in the market context refer to significant price movements driven by a high volume of trading activity. These are typically sharp and swift moves either upwards (bullish impulse) or downwards (bearish impulse). These impulses often signify a strong sentiment in the market and can result at the beginning of a new trend or the continuation of an existing one.
In effect, the Bellcurve indicator is designed to filter out minor price fluctuations or 'noise,' allowing traders to focus solely on significant market impulses. This makes it easier for traders to identify key market movements.
Example of how to use the Bellcurve
The Bellcurves uses the principles of statistical analysis to identify significant market impulses and potential market reversals.
█ Why is this Oscillator Toolkit Needed?
The Oscillator Toolkit is a vital asset for traders for several reasons:
Insight into Market Trends: The Oscillator Toolkit provides valuable insight into current market trends. This includes understanding whether the market is bullish (rising) or bearish (falling), as well as identifying potential future price movements.
Identification of Overbought or Oversold Conditions: Oscillators like those in the toolkit can help traders identify when an asset is overbought (potentially overvalued) or oversold (potentially undervalued). This can signal potential market reversals.
Confirmation of Price Patterns: The oscillators in the toolkit can confirm price patterns and trends. For example, if a price pattern suggests a bullish trend, an oscillator can help confirm this by showing rising momentum.
Versatility Across Markets and Timeframes: The Oscillator Toolkit is designed to work across a variety of markets, including stocks, forex, commodities, and cryptocurrencies. It's also effective across different timeframes, from short-term day trading to longer-term investment strategies.
Timely Trade Signals: By providing real-time insights into market conditions and price momentum, the Oscillator Toolkit offers timely signals for trade entries and exits.
Enhancing Trading Strategy: Every trader has a unique approach to the market. The Oscillator Toolkit, with its suite of different oscillators, provides a robust set of tools that can be customized to enhance any trading strategy, whether it's a trend following, swing trading, scalping, or any other approach.
█ Any Alert Function Call
This function allows traders to combine any feature and create customized alerts. These alerts can be set for various conditions and customized according to the trader's strategy or preferences.
█ How are the Oscillators calculated? - Overview
The Toolkit combines many of our existing premium indicators and new technical analysis algorithms to analyze the market. This overview covers how the main features are calculated.
WaveTrend Momentum
The WaveTrend Momentum oscillator operates at its core by comparing the current price to previous prices. If the current price is higher than the previous price, the oscillator value will rise, indicating an uptrend. Conversely, if the current price is lower than the previous price, the oscillator value will fall, indicating a downtrend. To make it unique and useful normalized weighting functions are added.
Leading RSI
The Leading RSI is based on the traditional Relative Strength Index, with an added exploration function that takes into account historical price movements.
Momentum Oscillator
The Momentum oscillator measures how quickly the price is changing, on average, over a certain period, relative to the variability of the price over that same period. It gives higher values when the price is changing rapidly in one direction and lower values when the price is fluctuating or changing more slowly. In addition, other functions, such as market extremes and buying/selling pressure, are factored in.
Bellcurves
The Bellcurves assume that some common historical price data is normally distributed, and once these patterns or moves are found the in the price data, a Bellcurve is formed.
█ In conclusion , the Oscillator Toolkit is an advanced, versatile, and indispensable asset for traders across various markets and timeframes. This innovative collection includes different oscillators, including the WaveTrend Momentum, Leading RSI, Momentum Oscillator, and the Bellcurves Indicator, each serving a unique function in providing valuable insights into the market's behavior.

The MACD Normalized indicator, serves as an asset for traders seeking to harness the power of the moving average convergence divergence (MACD) combined with the advantages of the stochastic oscillator. This novel indicator introduces a normalized MACD, offering a potentially enhanced flexibility and adaptability to numerous market conditions and trading techniques.
This indicator stands out by normalizing the MACD to its average high and average low, also factoring in the deviation of the high-low position from the mean. This approach incorporates the high and low in the calculations, providing the benefits of stochastic without its common drawbacks, such as clipping problems. As a result, the indicator becomes exceptionally versatile and suitable for various trading strategies, including both faster and slower settings.
The MACD Normalized Indicator boasts a variety of options and settings. The features include:
Enable Ribbon: Toggle the display of the ribbon accompanying the MACD Normalized, as desired.
Fast Length: Determine the movement speed of the fast line to receive advance notice of potential market opportunities.
Slow Length: Control the movement pace of the slow line for smoother signals and a comprehensive outlook on market trends.
Average Length: Specify the length used to calculate the high and low averages, providing greater control over the indicator's granularity.
Upper Deviation: Establish the extent to which the high and low values deviate from the mean, ensuring adaptability to diverse market situations.
Inner Band (Middle Deviation): Adjust the balance between the high and low deviations to create an inner band signal, giving traders a secondary level of market analysis and decision-making support.
Enable Candle Color: Enable the coloring of candles based on the MACD Normalized value for effortless visualization of trading potential.
Use Cases for the MACD Normalized Indicator
In addition to analyzing market trends and identifying potential trading opportunities, ChartPrime's MACD Normalized Indicator offers a range of applications for traders. These use cases encompass distinct trading scenarios and strategies:
Overbought and Oversold Regions
One of the key applications of the MACD Normalized Indicator is identifying overbought and oversold regions. Overbought refers to a situation where an asset's price has risen significantly and is expected to face a downturn, while oversold indicates a price drop that may subsequently lead to a reversal.
By adjusting the indicator's parameters, such as the upper and inner deviation levels, traders can set precise boundaries to determine overbought and oversold areas. When the MACD moves into the upper region, it may signal that the asset is overbought and due for a price correction. Conversely, if the MACD enters the lower region, it possibly indicates an oversold condition with the potential for a price rebound.
Signal Line Crossovers
The MACD Normalized Indicator displays two lines: the fast line and the slow line (inner band). A common trading strategy involves observing the intersection of these two lines, known as a crossover. When the fast line crosses above the slow line, it may signify a bullish trend or a potential buying opportunity. Conversely, a crossover with the fast line moving below the slow line typically indicates a bearish trend or a selling opportunity.
Divergence and Convergence
Divergence occurs when the price movement of an asset does not align with the corresponding MACD values. If the price establishes a new high while the MACD fails to do the same, a bearish divergence emerges, suggesting a potential downtrend. Similarly, a bullish divergence takes place when the price forms a new low but the MACD does not follow suit, hinting at an upcoming uptrend.
Convergence, on the other hand, is represented by the MACD lines moving closer together. This movement signifies a potential change in the trend, providing traders with a timely opportunity to enter or exit the market.
Regularized-Moving-Average Oscillator SuiteThe Regularized-MA Oscillator Suite is a versatile indicator that transforms any moving average into an oscillator. It comprises up to 13 different moving average types, including KAMA, T3, and ALMA. This indicator serves as a valuable tool for both trend following and mean reversion strategies, providing traders and investors with enhanced insights into market dynamics.
Methodology:
The Regularized MA Oscillator Suite calculates the moving average (MA) based on user-defined parameters such as length, moving average type, and custom smoothing factors. It then derives the mean and standard deviation of the MA using a normalized period. Finally, it computes the Z-Score by subtracting the mean from the MA and dividing it by the standard deviation.
KAMA (Kaufman's Adaptive Moving Average):
KAMA is a unique moving average type that dynamically adjusts its smoothing period based on market volatility. It adapts to changing market conditions, providing a smoother response during periods of low volatility and a quicker response during periods of high volatility. This allows traders to capture trends effectively while reducing noise.
T3 (Tillson's Exponential Moving Average):
T3 is an exponential moving average that incorporates additional smoothing techniques to reduce lag and provide a more responsive indicator. It aims to maintain a balance between responsiveness and smoothness, allowing traders to identify trend reversals with greater accuracy.
ALMA (Arnaud Legoux Moving Average):
ALMA is a moving average type that utilizes a combination of linear regression and exponential moving average techniques. It offers a unique way of calculating the moving average by providing a smoother and more accurate representation of price trends. ALMA reduces lag and noise, enabling traders to identify trend changes and potential entry or exit points more effectively.
Z-Score:
The Z-Score calculation in the Regularized-MA Oscillator Suite standardizes the values of the moving average. It measures the deviation of each data point from the mean in terms of standard deviations. By normalizing the moving average through the Z-Score, the indicator enables traders to assess the relative position of price in relation to its mean and volatility. This information can be valuable for identifying overbought and oversold conditions, as well as potential trend reversals.
Utility:
The Regularized-MA Oscillator Suite with its unique moving average types and Z-Score calculation offers traders and investors powerful analytical tools. It can be used for trend following strategies by analyzing the oscillator's position relative to the midline. Traders can also employ it as a mean reversion tool by identifying peak values above user-defined deviations. These features assist in identifying potential entry and exit points, enhancing trading decisions and market analysis.
Key Features:
Variety of 13 MA types.
Potential reversal point bubbles.
Bar coloring methods - Trend (Midline cross), Extremities, Reversions, Slope
Example Charts:
Altcoin ComparatorUse this indicator to compare an altcoin's ratio compared to Bitcoin (orange), the general altcoin market (blue), and the entire cryptocurrency market cap (yellow).
Bright colors indicate the altcoin is outperforming the crypto market while dull colors in imply it is under-performing.
Likewise, staying in the green implies sustained outperformance while staying in the red implies sustained under-perfrmance.
Oversold values imply the altcoin is expensive while overbought imply it is cheap.
Be sure to use market caps: ETH, SOL, ADA, etc. not ETHUSD, SOLUSDT, etc.

Volume Accumulation Oscillator (VAO)The Volume Accumulation Oscillator (VAO) is a powerful momentum-based indicator designed to assess the strength of volume accumulation in a given asset. It helps traders identify periods of intense buying or selling pressure and potential trend reversals.
The VAO calculates the Net Volume Accumulation (NVA) by considering the volume, open, close, high, and low prices. It then applies exponential moving averages (EMAs) to smooth the NVA and calculates the VAO by comparing the smoothed NVA with its EMA over a specified signal period.
The VAO is plotted as a line chart, providing a clear visual representation of its values. Positive VAO values indicate strong bullish volume accumulation, suggesting potential upward price movement. Conversely, negative VAO values indicate significant selling pressure and the possibility of a downtrend.
To enhance the analysis, the indicator includes reference levels such as the zero line and +/-1 levels. These levels serve as important reference points for interpreting the VAO values and identifying key turning points in the market.
Additionally, the VAO histogram is included, which further illustrates the strength and direction of volume accumulation. The histogram bars are color-coded, with green bars representing positive VAO values and red bars representing negative VAO values.
The Volume Accumulation Oscillator is a versatile tool that can be used in various trading strategies. Traders can look for divergences between the VAO and the price chart to identify potential trend reversals. Combining the VAO with other technical analysis techniques can provide valuable insights into market dynamics and help traders make informed trading decisions.
