SuperTrend with Chebyshev FilterModified Super Trend with Chebyshev Filter
The Modified Super Trend is an innovative take on the classic Super Trend indicator. This advanced version incorporates a Chebyshev filter, which significantly enhances its capabilities by reducing false signals and improving overall signal quality. In this post, we'll dive deep into the Modified Super Trend, exploring its history, the benefits of the Chebyshev filter, and how it effectively addresses the challenges associated with smoothing, delay, and noise.
History of the Super Trend
The Super Trend indicator, developed by Olivier Seban, has been a popular tool among traders since its inception. It helps traders identify market trends and potential entry and exit points. The Super Trend uses average true range (ATR) and a multiplier to create a volatility-based trailing stop, providing traders with a dynamic tool that adapts to changing market conditions. However, the original Super Trend has its limitations, such as the tendency to produce false signals during periods of low volatility or sideways trading.
The Chebyshev Filter
The Chebyshev filter is a powerful mathematical tool that makes an excellent addition to the Super Trend indicator. It effectively addresses the issues of smoothing, delay, and noise associated with traditional moving averages. Chebyshev filters are named after Pafnuty Chebyshev, a renowned Russian mathematician who made significant contributions to the field of approximation theory.
The Chebyshev filter is capable of producing smoother, more responsive moving averages without introducing additional lag. This is possible because the filter minimizes the worst-case error between the ideal and the actual frequency response. There are two types of Chebyshev filters: Type I and Type II. Type I Chebyshev filters are designed to have an equiripple response in the passband, while Type II Chebyshev filters have an equiripple response in the stopband. The Modified Super Trend allows users to choose between these two types based on their preferences.
Overcoming the Challenges
The Modified Super Trend addresses several challenges associated with the original Super Trend:
Smoothing: The Chebyshev filter produces a smoother moving average without introducing additional lag. This feature is particularly beneficial during periods of low volatility or sideways trading, as it reduces the number of false signals.
Delay: The Chebyshev filter helps minimize the delay between price action and the generated signal, allowing traders to make timely decisions based on more accurate information.
Noise Reduction: The Chebyshev filter's ability to minimize the worst-case error between the ideal and actual frequency response reduces the impact of noise on the generated signals. This feature is especially useful when using the true range as an offset for the price, as it helps generate more reliable signals within a reasonable time frame.
The Great Replacement
The Modified Super Trend with Chebyshev filter is an excellent replacement for the original Super Trend indicator. It offers significant improvements in terms of signal quality, responsiveness, and accuracy. By incorporating the Chebyshev filter, the Modified Super Trend effectively reduces the number of false signals during low volatility or sideways trading, making it a more reliable tool for identifying market trends and potential entry and exit points.
In-Depth Guide to the Modified Super Trend Settings
The Modified Super Trend with Chebyshev filter offers a wide range of settings that allow traders to fine-tune the indicator to suit their specific trading styles and objectives. In this section, we will discuss each setting in detail, explaining its purpose and how to use it effectively.
Source
The source setting determines the price data used for calculations. The default setting is hl2, which calculates the average of the high and low prices. You can choose other price data sources such as close, open, or ohlc4 (average of open, high, low, and close prices) based on your preference.
Up Color and Down Color
These settings control the color of the trend line when the market is in an uptrend (up_color) and a downtrend (down_color). You can customize these colors to your liking, making it easier to visually identify the current market trend.
Text Color
This setting controls the color of the text displayed on the chart when using labels to indicate trend changes. You can choose any color that contrasts well with your chart background for better readability.
Mean Length
The mean_length setting determines the length (number of bars) used for the Chebyshev moving average calculation. A shorter length will make the moving average more responsive to price changes, while a longer length will produce a smoother moving average. It is crucial to find the right balance between responsiveness and smoothness, as a too-short length may generate false signals, while a too-long length might produce lagging signals. The default value is 64, but you can experiment with different values to find the optimal setting for your trading strategy.
Mean Ripple
The mean_ripple setting influences the Chebyshev filter's ripple effect in the passband (Type I) or stopband (Type II). The ripple effect represents small oscillations in the frequency response, which can impact the moving average's smoothness. The default value is 0.01, but you can experiment with different values to find the best balance between smoothness and responsiveness.
Chebyshev Type: Type I or Type II
The style setting allows you to choose between Type I and Type II Chebyshev filters. Type I filters have an equiripple response in the passband, while Type II filters have an equiripple response in the stopband. Depending on your preference for smoothness and responsiveness, you can choose the type that best fits your trading style.
ATR Style
The atr_style setting determines the method used for calculating the Average True Range (ATR). By default (false), it uses the traditional high-low range. When set to true, it uses the absolute difference between the open and close prices. You can choose the method that works best for your trading strategy and the market you are trading.
ATR Length
The atr_length setting controls the length (number of bars) used for calculating the ATR. Similar to the mean_length, a shorter length will make the ATR more responsive to price changes, while a longer length will produce a smoother ATR. The default value is 64, but you can experiment with different values to find the optimal setting for your trading strategy.
ATR Ripple
The atr_ripple setting, like the mean_ripple, influences the ripple effect of the Chebyshev filter used in the ATR calculation. The default value is 0.05, but you can experiment with different values to find the best balance between smoothness and responsiveness.
Multiplier
The multiplier setting determines the factor by which the ATR is multiplied before being added
Super Trend Logic and Signal Optimization
The Modified Super Trend with Chebyshev filter is designed to minimize false signals and provide a clear indication of market trends. It does so by using a combination of moving averages, Average True Range (ATR), and a multiplier. In this section, we will discuss the Super Trend's logic, its ability to prevent false signals, and the early warning crosses added to the indicator.
Super Trend Logic
The Super Trend's logic is based on a combination of the Chebyshev moving average and ATR. The Chebyshev moving average is a smooth moving average that effectively filters out market noise, while the ATR is a measure of market volatility.
The Super Trend is calculated by adding or subtracting a multiple of the ATR from the Chebyshev moving average. The multiplier is a user-defined value that determines the distance between the trend line and the price action. A larger multiplier results in a wider channel, reducing the likelihood of false signals but potentially missing out on valid trend changes.
Preventing False Signals
The Super Trend is designed to minimize false signals by maintaining its trend direction until a significant change in the market occurs. In a downtrend, the trend line will only decrease in value, and in an uptrend, it will only increase. This helps prevent false signals caused by temporary price fluctuations or market noise.
When the price crosses the trend line, the Super Trend does not immediately change its direction. Instead, it employs a safety logic to ensure that the trend change is genuine. The safety logic checks if the new trend line (calculated using the updated moving average and ATR) is more extreme than the previous one. If it is, the trend line is updated; otherwise, the previous trend line is maintained. This mechanism further reduces the likelihood of false signals by ensuring that the trend line only changes when there is a significant shift in the market.
Early Warning Crosses
To provide traders with additional insight, the Modified Super Trend with Chebyshev filter includes early warning crosses. These crosses are plotted on the chart when the price crosses the trend line without the safety logic. Although these crosses do not necessarily indicate a trend change, they can serve as a valuable heads-up for traders to monitor the market closely and prepare for potential trend reversals.
In conclusion, the Modified Super Trend with Chebyshev filter offers a significant improvement over the original Super Trend indicator. By incorporating the Chebyshev filter, this modified version effectively addresses the challenges of smoothing, delay, and noise reduction while minimizing false signals. The wide range of customizable settings allows traders to tailor the indicator to their specific needs, while the inclusion of early warning crosses provides valuable insight into potential trend reversals.
Ultimately, the Modified Super Trend with Chebyshev filter is an excellent tool for traders looking to enhance their trend identification and decision-making abilities. With its advanced features, this indicator can help traders navigate volatile markets with confidence, making more informed decisions based on accurate, timely information.
Range
Range Sentiment Profile [LuxAlgo]The Range Sentiment Profile indicator is inspired from the volume profile and aims to indicate the degree of bullish/bearish variations within equidistant price areas inside the most recent price range.
The most bullish/bearish price areas are highlighted through lines extending over the entire range.
🔶 SETTINGS
Length: Most recent bars used for the calculation of the indicator.
Rows: Number of price areas the price range is divided into.
Use Intrabar: Use intrabar data to compute the range sentiment profile.
Timeframe: Intrabar data timeframe.
🔶 USAGE
This tool can be used to easily determine if a certain price area contain more significant bullish or bearish price variations. This is done by obtaining an estimate of the accumulation of all the close to open variations occurring within a specific profile area.
A blue range background indicates a majority of bullish variations within each area while an orange background indicates a majority of bearish variations within each area.
Users can easily identify the areas with the most bullish/bearish price variations by looking at the bullish/bearish maximums.
It can be of interest to see where profile bins might have no length, these can indicate price areas with price variations with alternating signs (bullish variations are followed by a bearish sign) and similar body. They can also indicate a majority of either bullish or bearish variations alongside a minority of more significant opposite variations.
These areas can also provide support/resistance, as such price entering these areas could reverse.
Users can obtain more precise results by allowing the profile to use intrabar data. This will change the calculation of the profile, see the details section for more information.
🔶 DETAILS
The Range Sentiment Profile's design is similar to the way a volume profile is constructed.
First the maximum/minimum values over the most recent Length bars are obtained, these define the calculation range of the profile.
The range is divided into Rows equidistant areas. We then see if price lied within a specific area, if it's the case we accumulate the difference between the closing and opening price for that specific area.
Let d = close - open . The length of the bin associated to a specific area is determined as follows:
length = Width / 100 * Area / Max
Where Area is the accumulated d within the area, and Max the maximum value between the absolute value of each accumulated d of all areas.
The percentage visible on each bin is determined as 100 multiplied by the accumulated d within the area divided by the total absolute value of d over the entire range.
🔹 Intrabar Calculation
When using intrabar data the range sentiment profile is calculated differently.
For a specific area and candle within the interval, the accumulated close to open difference is accumulated only if the intrabar candle of the user selected timeframe lies within the area.
This can return more precise results compared to the standard method, at the cost of a higher computation time.
Days in rangeThis script is a little widget that I made to do some homework on the VIX.
As you can see in the chart I was analyzing the 2008 market crash and the stats that followed it after until the market started to recover.
You can see that theory in my "Ideas" tab.
This is an interactive set of lines that you can use to count the the bars inside and outside of your chosen range, and the percentage outside that range.
You should initially enter the price range of your product in the menu and set some arbitrary dates that you can easily see on your chart.
Drag and drop the lines around to suit what price and the dates you are analyzing.
The table will display the bar count inside and outside of the range, the total bars, and the percentage outside that range.
I personally used this as a tool to study the overall average of the product, compared with the behavior during major market events.
It is currently my opinion that post 2020 analysis needs to take into account the behavior of any given product prior to 2020 when the
VIX was in its comfort zone. Not to say that a price valuation hasn't been set, but that the movement to that price was outside of "Normal Market Conditions,"
and the time factor to return to that value might be skewed. Other factors would need to be considered at that point pertaining to your specific product or corelating indicator.
I could see this tool being useful to Forex and commodities traders. But that isn't my field so that that for what it is. I do think it would perform best on something that is more
pegged to a price range. I personally would use it on product's, like the VIX, that I use as an indicator product. That is what it was designed for.
But I suppose it could be used for Mean price and time related analysis, maybe with a Vwap, SMA or other breakout style indicators.
Volume analysis might be pretty sporty. Possibly time patterns... the possibilities could be endless. Or... limited.
I am publishing this for my trade group so that it can be tinkered with to find other helpful ways to use it.
If anyone finds something interesting with other indicators, please drop a comment below and I could consider creating a script to integrate with this tool.
Range Filter x Hull SuiteRange Filter x Hull Suite
This indicator is a hybrid of two popular indicators, with a twist; namely the Range Filter (Guikroth version) and the Hull Suite (by Insilico) .
Originally developed as a 1 minute trend following strategy and traded during the New York Session for it's typically high volume / likely trending nature, it provides entry signals based on the following logic:
For bullish entry signals:
The first bullish* candle (*defined by the Range Filter bar color logic, blue by default - which is not necessarily technically a bullish candle as defined by the OHLC values) which appears after the consolidation candles (also defined by the Range Filter bar color logic, orange by default), and where the Hull Suite moving average is also bullish.
For bearish entry signals:
The first bearish* candle (*defined by the Range Filter bar color logic, red by default - which is not necessarily technically a bearish candle as defined by the OHLC values) which appears after the consolidation candles (also defined by the Range Filter bar color logic, orange by default), and where the Hull Suite moving average is also bearish.
The indicator aims to filter out signals where possible consolidation is occurring and comes with styling options and alternative filter options such as a triple moving average trend detection method. Signals can also be filtered by a specific trading session. Standard options for the Range Filter and Hull Suite settings are also able to be customised within the settings menu.
Alerts
Various alerts are built-in, including the custom entry signals unique to this strategy.
Note : The above features listed above are accurate at the time of publishing, but may be altered in future.
Many thanks to guikroth & Insilico for sharing their open source indicators, and also to the original developer of the strategy itself for sharing it.
Range of a source displayed in thirdsThis indicator will take the value of any external source input and display how it has changed over time (the lookback period in settings). For the purposes of display here I'm using the WT1 line from Wavetrend with Crosses by LazyBear to provide a source input.
The highest and lowest value of the source over the lookback period are used to determine the highest and lowest point - the green and red lines at the top and bottom of the bands. This region is then mathematically split into three, such that the source (and its optional moving average line) can be defined as being in the top third, the middle or the bottom third.
Applications for this could be in risk management where you may wish to take on a larger position size when a certain indicator is in the top third, or decide that you want to enter / leave positions when the source crosses in / out of the extreme points.
AUTOMATIC GRID BOT STRATEGY [ilovealgotrading]
OVERVIEW:
This Grid trading strategy can help you maximize your profit in a ranging sideways market with no clear direction.
INDICATOR:
We can get some money by taking advantage of the movement of the price between the range we have determined.
Short positions are opened while the price is rising, long positions are opened while the price is falling.
Therefore, there is no need to predict the trend direction.
What is different in this indicator:
I want to say thank you to © thequantscience. His GRID SPOT TRADING ALGORITHM - GRID BOT TRADING strategy helped me when I was writing my indicator.
I want to explain what I have improved:
1- Grid strategy is a type of strategy that can be traded in very short time frames and users can trade this strategy algorithmically by connecting this strategy to their own accounts with the help of API systems. For this reason, I have developed a software that can give us signals by dynamically changing the long and short messages when users are trading.
2- We can change the start and end dates of our grid bot as we want. It is necessary to use this setting when setting up automatic bots, so that previously opened transactions are not taken into account.
3 - Lot or quantity size should not be excessively small when users are taking automatic trades because exchanges have limitations, to avoid this problem, I have prevented this error by automatically rounding up to the nearest quantity size inside the software.
4 - Users can avoid excessive losses by using stop loss on this grid bot if they wish.
5 - When our price is over the range high or below the range low, our open positions are closed, if the stop button is active. We can also change which close price time frame we take as a basis from the settings.
6 -Users can set how many dollars they can enter per transaction while performing their transactions automatically.
IMPLEMENTATION DETAILS – SETTINGS:
This script allows the user to choose the highs and lows leves of our range. Our bot trades in the specified range.
1. This strategy allows us to set start and end backtest dates.
2. We can change range high and range low leves of our bot
3. IF people want to trade algorithmically with the help of this bot, there are 6 different input systems that will receive the Json codes as an alarm
4. IF the price closes above the upper line or below the lower line, all transactions will be closed. We can determine in which time frame our transactions will be stopped if the price closes outside these levels.We can adjust how our bot works by activating or turning off the Stop Loss button.
5. In this strategy, you can determine your dollar cost for per position.
6. The user can also divide the interval we have determined into 10 parts or 20 equal parts.
7. The grid is divided and colored at the interval we set. At the same time, if we don't want we can turn off colored channels.
Notes:
If you're going to connect this bot to an automatic Long and Short direction,
Don’t forget! you need to Webhook URL,
Don’t miss paste this code to your message window {{strategy.order.alert_message}}
ALSO:
Set your range below the support zones and above the resistance zones.
Don't be afraid to take a wide range, it doesn't matter if you make a little money, the important thing is that you don't lose money.
If you have any ideas what to add to my work to add more sources or make calculations cooler, suggest in DM .
Open RangeThis is a simple script that will look back a set number of candles at a specified time (example: Ny Open) and find the "High and Low " of the range/ market in the given look back period. It will then draw two lines and the range zone as a box. Breakout traders can use these levels to help find interesting areas for a breakout. Reversal traders can use these levels to help locate false breakouts.
Simple type in your time zone Example: GMT-4
Set the time you want the indicator to draw the start line Example: 8:30am
then set the candle look back Example: 60
Hope this script helps spark some ideas
Happy trading
TradeEasy - KintroThe TradingView script provided is a custom indicator named "TradeEasy - Kintro". It is created by the author Kintro and is designed to help traders identify potential buy and sell signals in the market. The indicator is based on the Exponential Moving Average (EMA) and uses two different EMAs, one with a period of 20 and the other with a period of 50.
The indicator is meant to be used on the 5-minute timeframe and it is recommended to use TradingView in Dark Mode for better appearance. The author also reminds users that no strategy works 100% accurately and backtesting should be done before trading with a real account. The author is not responsible for any losses incurred by traders.
The indicator uses a simple set of rules to generate trading signals. The thick line on the chart represents the 50 EMA while the thin line represents the 20 EMA. When the thin line crosses upwards over the thick line, it indicates a bullish signal. After the crossover, traders are advised to wait for the price to pullback between the two lines. A range should then be created while the price moves through the thin line.
On the break of the range, an entry signal is generated, and the stop loss should be set below the range. The author advises traders to exit their profits according to their own analysis or price action and not to re-enter on the next pullback of the same trend. The same rules apply when the thin line crosses downwards over the thick line.
The author emphasizes that range creation is mandatory on crossing and that traders should not try to go against the trend. If the price is above both lines, traders should only go for buy orders, and vice versa.
If there is no range created while crossing, traders are advised not to enter the market. Traders should wait for the opportunity and not force a trade.
The indicator also includes a plot of the 34 EMA, and a range is created above and below the price action using the "up" and "down" variables. The author uses the "fill" function to color the background of the chart to highlight the range. The "dummy" variable is used to plot circles above or below the price action, depending on the trend.
In summary, the "TradeEasy - Kintro" indicator is a custom indicator designed to help traders identify potential buy and sell signals based on the crossing of two EMAs. The author provides a set of rules to generate trading signals and advises traders to wait for the opportunity and not force a trade. The indicator also includes a visual representation of the range created on the chart. As always, traders are advised to conduct their own research and analysis before entering any trades.
VWAP Bollinger Band Crossover Breakout with ResistanceCredit to © Jesus_Salvatierra for VWAP script
This script help you find a trend in momentum stock that is about to breakout and shows resistance point. This script utilizes Bollinger bands VWAP and is good for intra day charts.
VWAP, or Volume Weighted Average Price, is a technical analysis tool used to measure the average price a security trades at during a given time period, weighted by the trading volume for each price level. It is commonly used by traders and investors to identify the true average price of a security and to assess whether they are buying or selling at a fair price.
A Bollinger Band is a technical analysis tool that uses standard deviation to measure the volatility of a security. The Bollinger Band is typically composed of three lines: the upper band, the lower band, and the middle band. The middle band is a simple moving average of the security's price, while the upper and lower bands are calculated based on the standard deviation of the security's price.
A Bollinger Band crossover occurs when the price of a security crosses above or below one of the bands. When the price crosses above the upper band, it is considered overbought, while when it crosses below the lower band, it is considered oversold. Traders often use Bollinger Band crossovers as a signal to enter or exit a position, depending on their trading strategy.
The VWAP and Bollinger Band crossover are two separate technical analysis tools that can be used in conjunction with each other. When a security's price crosses above or below the Bollinger Band, traders may look to the VWAP to confirm whether the security is trading at a fair price. If the security is trading above the VWAP, it may be overvalued, while if it is trading below the VWAP, it may be undervalued. Similarly, traders may use the Bollinger Band crossover as a signal to enter or exit a position, while also taking into account the VWAP to assess whether the price is fair.

Overview
Equilibrium is a tool designed to measure the buying & selling pressure in the market. It is depicted as a “pressure gauge” that automatically adjusts as new candles are formed, providing a real-time indication of who's on top right now, buyers or sellers?
Background
Supply & demand is considered to be the main driving force of our modern economies, where the interaction between the two parties(sellers & buyers) leads to the determination of the fair price for a given product. Stock markets are no exception, they operate very much based around the idea of supply & demand.
In simple terms, supply refers to the availability of a product, and demand is the willingness of consumers to buy that product at a given price. It is obvious that different vendors may sell the same product at slightly different prices, and similarly, different customers may choose to buy the same product from different vendors at varying prices. The idea is that the price is allowed to fluctuate from time to time, but in a free & fair market, the price will eventually settle down to a value that makes both the parties happy. Such a state is known as the “Price-Equilibrium”, and this process is also referred to as the market mechanism.
This is the basic assumption around which this tool is based, the market is always trying to move towards a state of equilibrium.
Calculations
This tool takes a simplistic approach to estimate the degree of imbalance between buyers & sellers, here’s a brief summary of how the pressure is calculated:
- We compute the total lengths of red & green candles for a given period, i.e. price range multiplied by the volume for that candle.
- Then the distribution of each type of candle is calculated.
- Assuming more red candles denote more selling pressure, and green candles denote buying pressure, the gauge is populated cell by cell.
- As the pressure on one side increases, the intensity of the cell color also increases, signifying the extent to which one side is dominating.
How to use it
- The indicator is designed as a pressure gauge that moves up(vertical alignment) or to the right(horizontal alignment) as the buying pressure increases, and moves down or to the left as the selling pressure increases. How it is to be used & applied, that completely depends on your trading methodology. But, the general idea is that we expect the market to be in a state of equilibrium, and if that is not the case the tool will highlight that, and this is also where the opportunity lies to find suitable trades.
- Just by having an idea about who’s dominating the market currently, a trader can also pick sides wisely. Remember, the market is always striving to come back a state of equilibrium, and a slight imbalance can indicate the current trend, and more importantly, who’s more likely to make the next move.
User Settings
The tool offers some minimal configurations for the end user:
- You can choose to display the actual percentage value in the gauge(Show Text).
- You can adjust colors that denote buyers & sellers.
- You can change the layout of gauge, default is vertical(right side of the screen).
- Last, and most important, you can adjust the number of candles to traverse for calculating the pressure. Default is 50, can go upto 1000.
Range Analysis - By LeviathanThe Interactive Range Analysis script is an essential tool for analyzing price ranges. It automatically draws important range levels, generates a Volume Profile or Open Interest profile and horizontal/vertical heatmaps, plots the anchored VWAP, draws Fibonacci levels, and much more.
How to use the indicator:
1. The script will prompt you to select the "Start Time" and "End Time" using Tradingview's interactive interface. These two points will determine the length of the range.
2. Once you have selected the range, the script will automatically anchor the range highs and lows to the highest and lowest close/wick/hlc3/ohlc4 (whichever you prefer).
3. You can then begin exploring different tools and options such as Quarters, Eighths, Fibonacci, Outer Levels, VWAP, Horizontal Volume/OI Heatmap, Vertical Volume/OI Heatmap, Fixed Range Volume Profile, Open Interest Profile, Value Area, VAH, VAL, and POC.
4. You can adjust the range by dragging the Start Time and End Time anchors or by removing/reapplying the script.
Tool overview
Range Levels
After selecting your preferred time range, the script will identify and draw a range high level and a range low level, which serve as a base for other important levels. “Half” is the level halfway between the range high and range low. “Quarters” will, as the name suggests, split the range into four equal zones (quarters) and “Eighths” will split the range into eight equal zones (eighths).
”Fibonacci” option allows you to display Fibonacci retracement levels (0.786, 0.618, 0.382, 0.236). “VWAP” will plot a Volume Weighted Average Price, anchored to the start of the range. “Direction” input lets you choose whether your range is UP or DOWN trending in order to make sure that the Fibonacci levels and labels are generated and assigned correctly. With “Outer” turned ON, the script will also generate active levels (quarters/eighths/Fibonacci) above and below the selected price range. “Extend Right” will extend all levels to the right indefinitely, while “Extend (+Bars)” lets you choose how far right the levels get extended. “Diagonal Line” is drawn from the bottom left of the range to the top right of the range or from the top left of the range to the bottom right of the range, depending on the “Direction” input.
Volume Profile / Open Interest Profile
After selecting the “Data Type”, Volume Profile or OI Profile can be generated by turning ON the “Volume/OI Profile” option.
“Resolution” input defines the amount of nodes/rows in the range that are used in profile/heatmap generation for distributing the data. While you can increase the “Resolution” to get better, more granular profiles, you should keep in mind that you might need to lower the resolution when generating profiles for larger ranges.
”Node Type” offers you two options when it comes to the representation of data: Up/Down - divides a node in two sections for up volume/OI and down volume/OI, Total - one node for total volume/OI and Delta - net difference in up volume/OI and down volume/OI.
”Profile Position” lets you choose whether the profile is positioned on the left side of the range or on the right side of the range.
“Profile Direction” determines whether the profile nodes are facing right or left.
“Profile Type” enables you to visualize the nodes in a classic way (Type 1) or in a way where down volume/negative OI are positioned on the left side of the y axis and up volume/positive OI on the right side of the y axis.
“Node Size (%)” defines how much space in the range can be taken by the profile’s nodes. Eg. 50% will allow the largest node to extend to the middle of the range (and others scaled accordingly), 100% will allow the largest node to extend the max right point of the range (and others scaled accordingly).
”Value Area (%)” defines the VA zone, which represents the area where the most volume occured (usually 70% or 68%).
”Horizontal Heatmap” will display a heatmap-like overlay, that will help you identify the price levels where most volume/open interest action occurred.
”Vertical Heatmap” will display a heatmap-like overlay, that will help you identify the points in time where most volume/open interest action occurred.
A more detailed description of this indicator is coming in the next few days.
Important:
* If volume or OI profile does not get generated, try lowering the resolution.
* Once in a while, the script will disappear from your chart. Just remove and reapply.
* Open Interest data is only avaiable on Binance Perpetual Futures pairs

range_statA basic statistic to describe "ranges". There are three inputs:
- short range
- long range
- moving average length
The output is a ratio of the short range to the long range. In the screenshot example, the short range is a single day (bar) and the long range is five days. A value near "1" would mean that every day entirely fills the five day range, and that a consolidation is likely present. A value near 0 would mean that each day fills only a small portion of the five day range, and price is probably "trending".
The moving average length is for smoothing the result (which also lags it of course).
The mean, and +- 2 standard deviations are plotted as fuchsia colored lines.
Range ( Adjustable ) HLLSfor range of the price ( Adjustable )
This indicator shows you in what price range it may move.
This indicator is adjustable. You must set your installation to the past of its chart. (depends on timeframe)
Pay attention to adapt it in different time frames and with your strategy.
The function of this indicator is simple.
Based on the first factor (the number of previous candles), you can adjust average range channel with the second factor for height of the channel.
Range DetectionThis is a simple indicator to find the sideways market or ranging market.
It is mainly focused on BTCUSD as BTCUSD doesn’t make big moves each and every candle. It makes big breakouts with one candle and then goes sideways for a longer period of time.
So, this indicator identifies those big candles and plots high and lows of those big candles using lines. New range is created only when new candles close above or below previous major candles high or low.
Body / Range %Body / Range is a volatility indicator that shows how many percentages the body candle occupies the range.
The ratio tells us about the health and confidence of the current candlestick.
Since overall candle Range is always bigger than the body range, Body/Range indicator will always fluctuate inside a range of 0 and 100%.
I didn't use True Range because it considers gaps and the ratio won't be considering individual candles. Therefore, I used high - low and identified it as Range.
In this function, the wicks play obviously role in determining the ratio too without its variable separately in the formula. I wouldn't use wicks here because Range = body + total wicks anyway. It already covers the variable. If I made the ratio with Body / Total Wicks, we wouldn't have stable 0 - 100% range of the indicator by the way. So it's fully justified dividing Body by Range to get some summarized Candle Metrics.
Logically we assume that if wicks are relatively bigger than body then the ratio will be relatively smaller and vice versa.
Change TF of the indicator is possible. For example, 3 months per bar would look like this:
Average HL Range - SATThis indicator dynamically display consolidation range base on three series ( high, low and close). it also display range breakout when a close occurs outside of the range. HeikinAshi and Diffrent Timeframe data can be requested to reduce the noise from the market. All setting are configurable : entryprice, takeprofits, Risk: REward, Dark Mode
Balance of Force (BOF)The script "Balance of Force" is an indicator that aims to provide insight into the bullish and bearish forces present in the market by analyzing the relationship between bullish and bearish true ranges. The indicator first calculates the bearish and bullish true ranges by taking the absolute difference between the open and close prices for each period and summing these values over a user-specified length. It then calculates the ratio of the bullish true range to the bearish true range and takes the natural logarithm of this value, resulting in the "bullish-bearish ratio".
The script then calculates the standard deviation of this ratio over a user-specified length to create a measure of volatility. Using this deviation and the dominant cycle, it then applies an exponential moving average to smooth the ratio. The indicator plots the smoothed ratio, the raw ratio, and the deviation of the ratio multiplied by 1, 2 and 3 in addition to filling the area between the deviation multiplied by 3 and the log(1) with red and green. The user can use the indicator to identify potential bullish or bearish market conditions by analyzing the relationship between the smoothed ratio and the log(1) and the deviation of the ratio.
Chart Time and Price Range It is easy to loose track of time and price volatility when the chart automatically scales to the bars on the chart. This helps you keep track.
This is a very simple indicator that is designed to ensure that you're looking at a segment of the chart that is relevant to the trade you're considering in both price distance and time.
The Problem:
When looking at a chart the lowest price is at the bottom of the screen, the highest price is at the top. The time at the beginning of the chart is based on how many bars and what timeframe you're looking at.
But is the price difference between the two wide or narrow? Are you seeing minutes, hours, or days of price action?
You can get the measure tool out, but you'll change the zoom level and now its different. You change the timeframe and its different.
This Solution:
This indicator puts a table on the screen that will tell you the X/Y distance of everything that is on your chart. If your hold period is 5 minutes, why would you be looking at 3 days of price action to find s/r or make a decision on a trade?
This will show you how much price opportunity was available in the amount of time you are currently viewing. Using the PineCoders VisibleChart library, we're retrieving the time and bar_index of the beginning of the chart so that everything that is currently on the chart is measured and it adapts as that changes.
It will work with light and dark themes (you can change the colors) and can be positioned wherever you prefer to see the information.

ATR Oscillator - Index (Average True range Oscillator)The purpose of converting the ATR value indicator to an oscillator;
It is known that the ATR value is not between the two specified values. So it is not compressed between 0 and 100 like RSI and %B etc. Therefore, conditions such as "A condition if ATR value is X, B condition if ATR value is Y" cannot be created. In order to create these conditions, the max and min value range of the ATR value must be determined. This indicator converts the ATR values into a percentage number according to the maximum and minimum ATR values in the period you will choose. Max value is 100, min value is 0. The considered ATR value, on the other hand, corresponds to the % of the difference between the max and min value in the selected period.
In this way, conditions such as "If the ATR Oscillator value is greater than 10 or 20 or 30" can now be created, or the value of another indicator can be calculated based on the ATR Oscillator value. For example; Let's say we want the standard deviation of BBand to change according to the value of the ATR Oscillator. If BBand Standard Deviation is 3 if ATRO value is 100, BBand Standard Deviation is 2 if ATRO value is 0, and BBand Standard Deviation is 2.5 when ATRO value is 50;
We can encode it as BBand_Std_Dev=((ATRO*0.01)+2 )
If the ATRO value is between .... and ...., you can make improvements such as plot color X.
Range Filter Buy and Sell 5min - guikroth versionRange Filter Buy and Sell 5min - the @guikroth version, republished.
Since this popular version of the Range Filter is no longer available via the original author, I republish it here under the same name.
This version remains true to the guikroth version from the calculations to the default settings and comments in the code, with the exception of an update to the latest version of PineScript, minor styling adjustments and the addition of an all-in-one 'buy or sell' alert option.
The guikroth version was a simplified modification of the original Range Filter by @DonovanWall .
Including having just 3 bar colours based on the filtered price trend, different source input options to the original, and the addition of buy and sell signals and alerts based upon the Range Filter colour change. It consisted of just three inputs; source, sampling period, and range multipler. With the update to version 5, external indicators can also be used as inputs, for example using a VWAP or EMA loaded on your chart as the input on the Range Filter is now also possible.
What is the Range Filter?
As the author of the original Range Filter describes it:
"This is an experimental study designed to filter out minor price action for a clearer view of trends. Inspired by the QQE's volatility filter, this filter applies the process directly to price rather than to a smoothed RSI .
First, a smooth average price range is calculated for the basis of the filter and multiplied by a specified amount.
Next, the filter is calculated by gating price movements that do not exceed the specified range.
Lastly the target ranges are plotted to display the prices that will trigger filter movement.
Custom bar colors are included. The color scheme is based on the filtered price trend."
Popularity of the Range Filter
The Range Filter is a very popular and effective indicator in its own right, with adjustments to the few simple settings it is possible to use the Range Filter for helping filter price movement, whether helping to determine trend direction or ranges, to timing breakout or even reversal entries. Its practical versatility makes it ideal for integrating it's signals into a variety of trading strategies or even other indicators.
With many thanks to the authors of the previous and original versions; @guikroth and @DonovanWall .
Trend Finder with Coefficient of VariationCoefficient of variation (“COV”) is a statistical measure used to describe the variability of values within a data set, it’s calculated by taking the standard deviation divided by the mean.
Traditionally, COV is applied to the expected returns of competing investment portfolios. A risk adverse investor prefers to accept a portfolio with a relatively lower COV value.
On the other hand, when applying COV to price charts, the difference is that instead of looking at expected returns, we now treat price as the source of data. We look at price from a moving average perspective. This script purely focuses on price.
What this indicator does:
Firstly, to go over the parameters:
Let ‘n’ be the lookback period for computing COV, and ‘m’ be the period for comparing the ranking of COVs.
Logics in a nutshell:
This program will (A) calculate the COV by dividing the moving standard deviation by moving average over ‘n’ bars, and then (B) illustrate the relationship of how COV at each bar ranks compared to COVs over past ‘m’ bars. We use a color scale (default black and yellow) for visualizing ranking in terms of percentiles. If COV is below its median value, then we assume that price is consolidating.
Hypothesis:
Using COV on top of regular SMA signals should reduce a lot of unwanted noise such as consecutive crossovers during ranging-periods. Traders want volatility, but not too much of it when sniping for entry opportunities (speaking of initial position; need to add to winning positions after, but this is for another topic). For this reason, the median value of COV is suitable as a metric for signals.
Applications:
We use the median value of COV to form a decision rule. A signal is generated when COV > median(COV,m), and the direction of trend is determined based on relative position of price with respect to sma(price,n). When the value of COV is increasing, it can also be thought of seeing Bollinger Bands beginning to bulge. When trends begin, this program will plot triangles to signify entry opportunities.
