Candled LWMA (Loacally Weighted MA)The Locally Weighted Moving Average (LWMA) is a type of moving average that emphasizes recent data points by assigning them higher weights compared to older values. Unlike the Simple Moving Average (SMA), which treats all data points equally, or the Exponential Moving Average (EMA), which uses a fixed weighting factor, the LWMA applies a linear weighting scheme. This means that the most recent prices contribute more significantly to the average, making the LWMA more responsive to price changes while retaining a smooth curve.
In trading, the LWMA is particularly useful for identifying trends and detecting price reversals with reduced lag. By giving more importance to the latest prices, it provides a clearer picture of the current market dynamics. Traders often use the LWMA in combination with other indicators to confirm trends or spot potential entry and exit points. The adjustable length parameter allows for fine-tuning the indicator to match different market conditions and trading styles. Its ability to adapt to recent price behavior makes it a valuable tool for both short-term and long-term traders.

ATR SL Band (No-Repaint, Multi-Timeframe) + Risk per ContractThis indicator draws a non-repainting band for ATR-based Stoploss placement.
If used on Futures, it shows the distance + risk from the previous candle close, as well as from the current price.
The risk value is automatically calculated for the following symbols:
(Micro) ES (S&P 500)
(Micro) NQ (NASDAQ 100)
(Micro) YM (Dow Jones Industrial Average / US30)
The timeframe can be set individually. It is not recommended to use a lower timeframe than the chart timeframe as values differ from the actual timeframe's ATR SL in this case.
Visual ATR StopThis indicator uses the Average True Range (ATR) to display a visual range for stop placement. Two multiplier values (example, 1 and 3) can be set to create a filled area below the price. This area represents the range between the two ATR levels, adjusted by subtracting the current price, providing a simple way to visualize stop-loss placement based on volatility.
The indicator is customizable; for example, negative values can place the area above the price for short positions. The filled color can also be removed, which allows precise levels to be marked above and below.
Precision Trading Strategy: Golden EdgeThe PTS: Golden Edge strategy is designed for scalping Gold (XAU/USD) on lower timeframes, such as the 1-minute chart. It captures high-probability trade setups by aligning with strong trends and momentum, while filtering out low-quality trades during consolidation or low-volatility periods.
The strategy uses a combination of technical indicators to identify optimal entry points:
1. Exponential Moving Averages (EMAs): A fast EMA (3-period) and a slow EMA (33-period) are used to detect short-term trend reversals via crossover signals.
2. Hull Moving Average (HMA): A 66-period HMA acts as a higher-timeframe trend filter to ensure trades align with the overall market direction.
3. Relative Strength Index (RSI): A 12-period RSI identifies momentum. The strategy requires RSI > 55 for long trades and RSI < 45 for short trades, ensuring entries are backed by strong buying or selling pressure.
4. Average True Range (ATR): A 14-period ATR ensures trades occur only during volatile conditions, avoiding choppy or low-movement markets.
By combining these tools, the PTS: Golden Edge strategy creates a precise framework for scalping and offers a systematic approach to capitalize on Gold’s price movements efficiently.
Smoothed Source Weighted EMAThe Smoothed Source EMA is a tool designed to help traders identify potential buying and selling opportunities in the market. It combines two key elements: price smoothing (using standard deviation) and an Exponential Moving Average (EMA). The purpose is to filter out the day-to-day price fluctuations and create clearer buy and sell signals.
Key Concepts Behind the Indicator:
Price Smoothing (Standard Deviation):
To make the price action easier to follow, the indicator first "smooths" the price. This is done by looking at how much the price tends to move up and down (known as standard deviation).
It then creates two "bands" around the current price—one above and one below. These bands represent a smoothed version of the price and help filter out the noise caused by small, random price movements.
Exponential Moving Average (EMA):
The indicator also uses an Exponential Moving Average (EMA), which is a line that represents the average price over a certain period of time (but gives more weight to recent prices). The EMA helps capture the general trend of the price.
The indicator uses this EMA to compare the current price with the overall trend.
How Does the Indicator Work?
Once the indicator calculates the smoothed price bands and the EMA, it looks for specific conditions to trigger a buy or sell signal:
Long (Buy) Signal:
A buy signal happens when the smoothed price (the lower band) is above the EMA. In simple terms, the price is moving up, and the indicator is telling you it's a good time to buy.
The more "weight" or influence you give to the EMA, the slower this buy signal will appear, meaning it’ll only trigger when there’s a strong enough upward movement.
Short (Sell) Signal:
A sell signal occurs when the smoothed price (the upper band) is below the EMA. This suggests the price is moving down, and the indicator signals that it might be time to sell.
Again, the more "weight" you put on the EMA, the slower the sell signal will appear, as the indicator waits for a clearer downtrend.
Why is this Useful for Traders?
Smoothing the Price: Many traders struggle with the noise of price fluctuations, where the price moves up and down quickly without a clear trend. By smoothing the price, this indicator helps traders focus on the bigger picture and avoid reacting to every small movement.
Clear Buy and Sell Signals: The indicator generates easy-to-understand buy and sell signals based on the relationship between the smoothed price and the EMA. If the price is above the smoothed level and EMA, it’s a signal to buy. If it’s below, it’s a signal to sell.
Customizable Sensitivity: The indicator lets traders adjust how sensitive the buy and sell signals are. By changing certain settings, such as the smoothing length and the weight of the EMA, traders can make the indicator react faster or slower depending on how quickly they want to catch changes in the market.
How the Indicator Appears on the Chart:
EMA Line: A line that represents the trend of the price.
Upper and Lower Smoothed Bands: Two bands above and below the price that help identify when the price is moving up or down relative to the trend.
Buy and Sell Arrows: Small arrows on the chart show where the indicator suggests buying or selling.
Colored Bars: The bars on the chart may change color to visually indicate whether the indicator suggests a buy (green) or a sell (red).
In Summary:
The Smoothed Source EMA helps you identify trends by smoothing out price movements using standard deviation, then comparing these smoothed prices with the Exponential Moving Average (EMA).
When the smoothed price moves above or below the EMA, it gives you a signal: a buy when the smoothed price is above the EMA, and a sell when it’s below.
You can adjust how quickly or slowly these signals appear by modifying the settings, giving you control over how sensitive the indicator is to changes in the market.
This indicator is useful for traders who want to reduce noise and focus on the overall trend, using clear, visually simple signals to guide their trading decisions.
MultiLayer Acceleration/Deceleration Strategy [Skyrexio]Overview
MultiLayer Acceleration/Deceleration Strategy leverages the combination of Acceleration/Deceleration Indicator(AC), Williams Alligator, Williams Fractals and Exponential Moving Average (EMA) to obtain the high probability long setups. Moreover, strategy uses multi trades system, adding funds to long position if it considered that current trend has likely became stronger. Acceleration/Deceleration Indicator is used for creating signals, while Alligator and Fractal are used in conjunction as an approximation of short-term trend to filter them. At the same time EMA (default EMA's period = 100) is used as high probability long-term trend filter to open long trades only if it considers current price action as an uptrend. More information in "Methodology" and "Justification of Methodology" paragraphs. The strategy opens only long trades.
Unique Features
No fixed stop-loss and take profit: Instead of fixed stop-loss level strategy utilizes technical condition obtained by Fractals and Alligator to identify when current uptrend is likely to be over (more information in "Methodology" and "Justification of Methodology" paragraphs)
Configurable Trading Periods: Users can tailor the strategy to specific market windows, adapting to different market conditions.
Multilayer trades opening system: strategy uses only 10% of capital in every trade and open up to 5 trades at the same time if script consider current trend as strong one.
Short and long term trend trade filters: strategy uses EMA as high probability long-term trend filter and Alligator and Fractal combination as a short-term one.
Methodology
The strategy opens long trade when the following price met the conditions:
1. Price closed above EMA (by default, period = 100). Crossover is not obligatory.
2. Combination of Alligator and Williams Fractals shall consider current trend as an upward (all details in "Justification of Methodology" paragraph)
3. Acceleration/Deceleration shall create one of two types of long signals (all details in "Justification of Methodology" paragraph). Buy stop order is placed one tick above the candle's high of last created long signal.
4. If price reaches the order price, long position is opened with 10% of capital.
5. If currently we have opened position and price creates and hit the order price of another one long signal, another one long position will be added to the previous with another one 10% of capital. Strategy allows to open up to 5 long trades simultaneously.
6. If combination of Alligator and Williams Fractals shall consider current trend has been changed from up to downtrend, all long trades will be closed, no matter how many trades has been opened.
Script also has additional visuals. If second long trade has been opened simultaneously the Alligator's teeth line is plotted with the green color. Also for every trade in a row from 2 to 5 the label "Buy More" is also plotted just below the teeth line. With every next simultaneously opened trade the green color of the space between teeth and price became less transparent.
Strategy settings
In the inputs window user can setup strategy setting: EMA Length (by default = 100, period of EMA, used for long-term trend filtering EMA calculation). User can choose the optimal parameters during backtesting on certain price chart.
Justification of Methodology
Let's explore the key concepts of this strategy and understand how they work together. We'll begin with the simplest: the EMA.
The Exponential Moving Average (EMA) is a type of moving average that assigns greater weight to recent price data, making it more responsive to current market changes compared to the Simple Moving Average (SMA). This tool is widely used in technical analysis to identify trends and generate buy or sell signals. The EMA is calculated as follows:
1.Calculate the Smoothing Multiplier:
Multiplier = 2 / (n + 1), Where n is the number of periods.
2. EMA Calculation
EMA = (Current Price) × Multiplier + (Previous EMA) × (1 − Multiplier)
In this strategy, the EMA acts as a long-term trend filter. For instance, long trades are considered only when the price closes above the EMA (default: 100-period). This increases the likelihood of entering trades aligned with the prevailing trend.
Next, let’s discuss the short-term trend filter, which combines the Williams Alligator and Williams Fractals. Williams Alligator
Developed by Bill Williams, the Alligator is a technical indicator that identifies trends and potential market reversals. It consists of three smoothed moving averages:
Jaw (Blue Line): The slowest of the three, based on a 13-period smoothed moving average shifted 8 bars ahead.
Teeth (Red Line): The medium-speed line, derived from an 8-period smoothed moving average shifted 5 bars forward.
Lips (Green Line): The fastest line, calculated using a 5-period smoothed moving average shifted 3 bars forward.
When the lines diverge and align in order, the "Alligator" is "awake," signaling a strong trend. When the lines overlap or intertwine, the "Alligator" is "asleep," indicating a range-bound or sideways market. This indicator helps traders determine when to enter or avoid trades.
Fractals, another tool by Bill Williams, help identify potential reversal points on a price chart. A fractal forms over at least five consecutive bars, with the middle bar showing either:
Up Fractal: Occurs when the middle bar has a higher high than the two preceding and two following bars, suggesting a potential downward reversal.
Down Fractal: Happens when the middle bar shows a lower low than the surrounding two bars, hinting at a possible upward reversal.
Traders often use fractals alongside other indicators to confirm trends or reversals, enhancing decision-making accuracy.
How do these tools work together in this strategy? Let’s consider an example of an uptrend.
When the price breaks above an up fractal, it signals a potential bullish trend. This occurs because the up fractal represents a shift in market behavior, where a temporary high was formed due to selling pressure. If the price revisits this level and breaks through, it suggests the market sentiment has turned bullish.
The breakout must occur above the Alligator’s teeth line to confirm the trend. A breakout below the teeth is considered invalid, and the downtrend might still persist. Conversely, in a downtrend, the same logic applies with down fractals.
In this strategy if the most recent up fractal breakout occurs above the Alligator's teeth and follows the last down fractal breakout below the teeth, the algorithm identifies an uptrend. Long trades can be opened during this phase if a signal aligns. If the price breaks a down fractal below the teeth line during an uptrend, the strategy assumes the uptrend has ended and closes all open long trades.
By combining the EMA as a long-term trend filter with the Alligator and fractals as short-term filters, this approach increases the likelihood of opening profitable trades while staying aligned with market dynamics.
Now let's talk about Acceleration/Deceleration signals. AC indicator is calculated using the Awesome Oscillator, so let's first of all briefly explain what is Awesome Oscillator and how it can be calculated. The Awesome Oscillator (AO), developed by Bill Williams, is a momentum indicator designed to measure market momentum by contrasting recent price movements with a longer-term historical perspective. It helps traders detect potential trend reversals and assess the strength of ongoing trends.
The formula for AO is as follows:
AO = SMA5(Median Price) − SMA34(Median Price)
where:
Median Price = (High + Low) / 2
SMA5 = 5-period Simple Moving Average of the Median Price
SMA 34 = 34-period Simple Moving Average of the Median Price
The Acceleration/Deceleration (AC) Indicator, introduced by Bill Williams, measures the rate of change in market momentum. It highlights shifts in the driving force of price movements and helps traders spot early signs of trend changes. The AC Indicator is particularly useful for identifying whether the current momentum is accelerating or decelerating, which can indicate potential reversals or continuations. For AC calculation we shall use the AO calculated above is the following formula:
AC = AO − SMA5(AO), where SMA5(AO)is the 5-period Simple Moving Average of the Awesome Oscillator
When the AC is above the zero line and rising, it suggests accelerating upward momentum.
When the AC is below the zero line and falling, it indicates accelerating downward momentum.
When the AC is below zero line and rising it suggests the decelerating the downtrend momentum. When AC is above the zero line and falling, it suggests the decelerating the uptrend momentum.
Now we can explain which AC signal types are used in this strategy. The first type of long signal is when AC value is below zero line. In this cases we need to see three rising bars on the histogram in a row after the falling one. The second type of signals occurs above the zero line. There we need only two rising AC bars in a row after the falling one to create the signal. The signal bar is the last green bar in this sequence. The strategy places the buy stop order one tick above the candle's high, which corresponds to the signal bar on AC indicator.
After that we can have the following scenarios:
Price hit the order on the next candle in this case strategy opened long with this price.
Price doesn't hit the order price, the next candle set lower high. If current AC bar is increasing buy stop order changes by the script to the high of this new bar plus one tick. This procedure repeats until price finally hit buy order or current AC bar become decreasing. In the second case buy order cancelled and strategy wait for the next AC signal.
If long trades are initiated, the strategy continues utilizing subsequent signals until the total number of trades reaches a maximum of 5. All open trades are closed when the trend shifts to a downtrend, as determined by the combination of the Alligator and Fractals described earlier.
Why we use AC signals? If currently strategy algorithm considers the high probability of the short-term uptrend with the Alligator and Fractals combination pointed out above and the long-term trend is also suggested by the EMA filter as bullish. Rising AC bars after period of falling AC bars indicates the high probability of local pull back end and there is a high chance to open long trade in the direction of the most likely main uptrend. The numbers of rising bars are different for the different AC values (below or above zero line). This is needed because if AC below zero line the local downtrend is likely to be stronger and needs more rising bars to confirm that it has been changed than if AC is above zero.
Why strategy use only 10% per signal? Sometimes we can see the false signals which appears on sideways. Not risking that much script use only 10% per signal. If the first long trade has been open and price continue going up and our trend approximation by Alligator and Fractals is uptrend, strategy add another one 10% of capital to every next AC signal while number of active trades no more than 5. This capital allocation allows to take part in long trades when current uptrend is likely to be strong and use only 10% of capital when there is a high probability of sideways.

Hidden SMT Divergence ICT 01 [TradingFinder] HSMT SMC Technique🔵 Introduction
Hidden SMT Divergence, an advanced concept within the Smart Money Technique (SMT), identifies discrepancies between correlated assets by focusing on their closing prices.
Unlike the standard SMT Divergence, which uses high and low prices for analysis, Hidden SMT Divergence uncovers subtle signals by examining divergences based on the assets' closing values.
These divergences often highlight potential reversals or trend continuations, making this technique a valuable tool for traders aiming to anticipate market movements.
This approach applies across various markets and asset classes, including :
Commodities : CAPITALCOM:GOLD vs. CAPITALCOM:SILVER or BLACKBULL:BRENT vs. BLACKBULL:WTI .
Indices : NASDAQ:NDX vs. TVC:SPX vs. FX:US30 .
FOREX : FX:EURUSD vs. OANDA:GBPUSD vs. TVC:DXY (US Dollar Index).
Cryptocurrencies : BITSTAMP:BTCUSD vs. COINBASE:ETHUSD vs. KUCOIN:SOLUSDT vs. CRYPTOCAP:TOTAL3 .
Volatility Measures : FOREXCOM:XAUUSD vs. TVC:VIX (Volatility Index).
By identifying divergences within these asset groups, traders can gain actionable insights into potential market reversals or shifts in trend direction. Hidden SMT Divergence is particularly effective for pinpointing subtle market signals that traditional methods may overlook.
Bullish Hidden SMT Divergence : This divergence emerges when one asset forms a higher low, while the correlated asset creates a lower low in terms of their closing prices. It often signals weakening downward momentum and a potential reversal to the upside.
Bearish Hidden SMT Divergence : This occurs when one asset establishes a higher high, while the correlated asset forms a lower high based on their closing prices. It typically reflects declining upward momentum and a probable shift to the downside.
🔵 How to Use
The Hidden SMT Divergence indicator provides traders with a systematic approach to identify market reversals or trend continuations through divergences in closing prices between two correlated assets.
🟣 Bullish Hidden SMT Divergence
Bullish Hidden SMT Divergence occurs when the closing price of the primary asset forms a higher low, while the correlated asset creates a lower low. This pattern indicates weakening downward momentum and signals a potential reversal to the upside.
After identifying the divergence, confirm it using additional tools like support levels, volume trends, or indicators such as RSI and MACD. Enter a buy position as the price shows signs of reversal near support zones, ensuring proper risk management by placing a stop-loss below the support level.
Bearish Hidden SMT Divergence
Bearish Hidden SMT Divergence is identified when the closing price of the primary asset forms a higher high, while the correlated asset creates a lower high. This divergence suggests a weakening uptrend and a likely reversal to the downside.
Validate the signal by examining resistance levels, declining volume, or complementary indicators. Consider entering a sell position as the price starts declining from resistance levels, and set a stop-loss above the resistance zone to limit potential losses.
🔵 Setting
Second Symbol : Select the secondary asset to compare with the primary asset. By default, "XAUUSD" (Gold) is used, but it can be customized to any stock, cryptocurrency, or currency pair.
Divergence Fractal Periods : Defines the number of past candles considered for identifying divergences. The default value is 2, but traders can adjust it for greater precision.
Bullish Divergence Line : Displays a dashed line connecting the points of bullish divergence.
Bearish Divergence Line : Shows a similar line for bearish divergence points.
Bullish Divergence Label : Marks areas of bullish divergence with a "+SMT" label.
Bearish Divergence Label : Highlights bearish divergences with a "-SMT" label.
Chart Type : Choose between Line or Candle charts for enhanced visualization.
🔵 Conclusion
Hidden SMT Divergence offers traders a refined method for identifying market reversals by analyzing closing price discrepancies between correlated assets. Its ability to uncover subtle divergences makes it an essential tool for traders who aim to stay ahead of market trends.

Volume-Weighted Delta Strategy[Kopottaja]Volume-Weighted Delta Strategy
The Volume-Weighted Delta Strategy combines price movement and trading volume to identify potential bullish and bearish market conditions. The strategy calculates a delta value that measures the difference between the close and open prices, weighted by volume over a specified period. This delta is compared against its moving average (SMA) to determine potential trend changes. Key features include:
Volume-Weighted Delta Calculation:
The delta is calculated by summing up the volume-weighted differences between close and open prices over the defined length (Delta Length).
Trend Identification:
If the delta value crosses above its SMA, the strategy interprets this as a bullish condition.
If the delta value crosses below its SMA, the strategy interprets this as a bearish condition.
EMA Integration:
A 20-period EMA is included as an additional trend indicator. The EMA line changes color based on whether the delta value is above or below its SMA:
Green: Bullish (delta > SMA)
Red: Bearish (delta < SMA)
Volume Filter:
A volume threshold can be applied to ensure trades are only executed when significant volume is present, helping to avoid false signals in low-volume conditions.
Entry Conditions:
Buy: When the delta crosses below its SMA (bearish signal).
Sell: When the delta crosses above its SMA (bullish signal).
Customizable Inputs:
Length for delta calculation (Delta Length)
Length for moving average (MA Length)
Volume threshold for trade activation
Optimal Timeframes:
This strategy works best on the 4-hour and 1-day timeframes, where volume and price trends are more stable, reducing noise from smaller timeframes.
How It Works:
This strategy is ideal for traders leveraging the relationship between price movement, volume, and trend indicators. Focusing on volume-weighted price action aims to provide a clearer picture of market sentiment, improving the accuracy of entry and exit signals.

Alternative Price [OmegaTools]The Alternative Price script is a sophisticated and flexible indicator designed to redefine how traders visualize and interpret price data. By offering multiple unique charting modes, robust customization options, and advanced features, this tool provides a comprehensive alternative to traditional price charts. It is particularly useful for identifying market trends, detecting patterns, and simplifying complex data into actionable insights.
This script is highly versatile, allowing users to choose from five distinct charting modes: Candles, Line, Channel, Renko, and Bubbles. Each mode serves a unique purpose and presents price information in an innovative way. When using this script, it is strongly recommended to hide the platform’s default price candles or chart data. Doing so will eliminate redundancy and provide a clearer and more focused view of the alternative price visualization.
The Candles mode offers a traditional candlestick charting style but with added flexibility. Users can choose to enable smoothed opens or smoothed closes, which adjust the way the open and close prices are calculated. When smoothed opens are enabled, the opening price is computed as the average of the actual open price and the closing prices of the previous two bars. This creates a more gradual representation of price transitions, particularly useful in markets prone to sudden spikes or irregularities. Similarly, smoothed closes modify the closing price by averaging it with the previous close, the high-low midpoint, and an exponential moving average of the high-low-close mean. This technique filters out noise, making trends and price momentum easier to identify.
In the Line mode, the script displays a simple line chart that connects the smoothed closing prices. This mode is ideal for traders who prefer minimalism or need to focus on the overall trend without the distraction of individual bar details. The Channel mode builds upon this by plotting additional lines representing the highs and lows of each bar. The resulting visualization resembles a price corridor that helps identify support and resistance zones or price compression areas.
The Renko mode introduces a more advanced and noise-filtering method of visualizing price movements. Renko charts, constructed using the ATR (Average True Range) as a baseline, display blocks that represent a specific price range. The script dynamically calculates the size of these blocks based on ATR, with separate thresholds for upward and downward movements. This makes Renko mode particularly effective for identifying sustained trends while ignoring minor price fluctuations. Additionally, the open and close values of Renko blocks can be smoothed to further refine the visualization.
The Bubbles mode represents price activity using circles or bubbles whose size corresponds to relative volume. This mode provides a quick and intuitive way to assess market participation at different price levels. Larger bubbles indicate higher trading volumes, while smaller bubbles highlight periods of lower activity. This visualization is particularly valuable in understanding the relationship between price movements and market liquidity.
The coloring of candles and other chart elements is a core feature of this script. Users can select between two color modes: Normal and Volume. In Normal mode, bullish candles are displayed in the user-defined bullish color, while bearish candles use the bearish color. Neutral elements, such as midpoints or undecided price movements, are shaded with a neutral color. In Volume mode, the candle colors are dynamically adjusted based on trading volume. A gradient color scale is applied, where the intensity of the bullish or bearish colors reflects the volume for that particular bar. This feature allows traders to visually identify periods of heightened activity and associate them with specific price movements.
Engulfing patterns, a popular technical analysis tool, are automatically detected and marked on the chart when the corresponding setting is enabled. The script identifies long engulfing patterns, where the current bar's range completely encompasses the previous bar’s range and indicates a potential bullish reversal. Similarly, short engulfing patterns are identified where the current bar fully engulfs the previous bar in the opposite direction, suggesting a bearish reversal. These patterns are visually highlighted with circular markers to draw the trader’s attention.
Each feature and mode is highly customizable. The colors for bullish, bearish, and neutral movements can be personalized, and the thresholds for patterns or smoothing can be fine-tuned to match specific trading strategies. The script's ability to toggle between various modes makes it adaptable to different market conditions and analysis preferences.
In summary, the Alternative Price script is a comprehensive tool that redefines the way traders view price charts. By offering multiple visualization modes, customizable features, and advanced detection algorithms, it provides a powerful way to uncover market trends, volume relationships, and significant patterns. The recommendation to hide default chart elements ensures that the focus remains on this innovative tool, enhancing its usability and clarity. This script empowers traders to gain deeper insights into market behavior and make informed trading decisions, all while maintaining a clean and visually appealing chart layout.
Keep in mind that some of the modes of this indicator might not reflect the actual closing price of the underlying asset, before opening a trade, check carefully the actual price!
