Rainbow Drift BetaRainbow Drift Beta is an indicator that detects the triggers of long and short positions at any TF.
It's based on two different type of approaches to the EMAs periods:
- Classic EMAs periods: 10 and 50
- Cycle EMAs perdios: 16, 64 and 256
The 256 period EMA (Annual Cycle) detects the trend: if the EMA 64 (Three-Weekly Cycle) is above, it shows an uptrend; while the EMA 64 is below, it means that the price action is in downtrend.
10 and 16 periods EMAs are working together as well as the 50 and the 64. The first couple reacts faster than the second one and as soon as the 10 is above the 16, the band shows the first attempt of the price action to go in the uptrend direction. The same concept is applied to the second couple (50, 64): when EMA 50 > EMA 64 it's a confirmation of the faster EMAs long direction. Viceverca happens for the downtrend but with the same concept.
As the EMA periods taken in consideration are quite often a sensitive level of reaction of the price, the indicator detects when there is trigger of a long or a short set up and plots a label on the chart. It's possibile to set up an alert as well.
Quite important, the indicator is looking for sideways patterns as the breakout of them shows a clear direction of the price.
Moreover, in order to privide the first and the best entry possibile, the indicator has a function that is triggering only one time as the trend reverted: for example, a long entry on the EMA 10-16 happens only one time since they crossover the EMA 64.
As included in the name, this is a beta version and new improvements will be added in the near future like suggested price entry, SL and TP, and the focus of the development is to avoid as much as possibile the false triggers.
Of course the best way to improve the code is to receive the users' feedbacks, so please feel free to post your comments and questions.
相對強弱指標(RSI)
RSI MTF DashboardThis is an RSI dashboard, which allows you to see the current RSI value for five timeframes across up to 8 tickers of your choice. This is a useful tool to gauge momentum across multiple timeframes, where you would look to enter a buy with high RSI values across the timeframes (and vice versa for sell positions).
Conversely, some traders use RSI to identify potential areas for reversals, so you would look to buy with low RSI values (and vice versa for sell positions).
In the settings, please select which 5 timeframes you require. Then select which tickers you wish to see, and you will find a dashboard on your chart to show the RSI values. The dashboard can be highlighted when the RSI value shows bearish momentum (a value under 50, of your choice) and bullish momentum (a value over 50, again of your choice). These colours and values are fully customisable.
In the settings you can also select the location of the dashboard, as well as some colour and transparency settings to enable the best possible view on screen.
GKD-C Composite RSI [Loxx]Giga Kaleidoscope GKD-C Composite RSI is a Confirmation module included in Loxx's "Giga Kaleidoscope Modularized Trading System".
█ What is the Composite RSI?
The Composite Relative Strength Index (Composite RSI) is a sophisticated adaptation of the traditional Relative Strength Index (RSI). This advanced indicator combines the benefits of smoothing techniques with the relative strength index to offer a more detailed perspective of market conditions. To fully comprehend the scope of Composite RSI, it's crucial to first understand the traditional RSI and its limitations.
The Relative Strength Index (RSI) is a widely used momentum oscillator that gauges the speed and change of price movements. Developed by J. Welles Wilder, the RSI is a scale from 0 to 100, with high and low levels typically set at 70 and 30, respectively. When the RSI climbs above 70, the asset is often considered overbought, suggesting a potential price decrease. Conversely, when the RSI falls below 30, the asset is deemed oversold, indicating a potential price increase.
While the RSI is beneficial in various market conditions, it is not without its limitations. One of the main criticisms of the traditional RSI is that it can produce false signals during trending markets. This is primarily due to the fact that the RSI only considers a single timeframe and does not account for volatility in the market.
The Composite RSI aims to address these limitations. This advanced indicator uses smoothing techniques and depth analysis to provide a more nuanced view of the market. As the provided pseudocode suggests, the Composite RSI calculates the Relative Strength (RS) over a given period and a certain depth, incorporating the average upward and downward changes in the price.
By using the Composite RSI, traders can better interpret market conditions and make more informed decisions. Its application of smoothing techniques helps to filter out market noise and reduce the likelihood of false signals. Furthermore, by considering multiple periods (the depth), the Composite RSI provides a more comprehensive view of market momentum.
While the traditional RSI remains a valuable tool in technical analysis, the Composite RSI offers a more nuanced and comprehensive approach to assessing market conditions. By incorporating smoothing techniques and depth analysis, the Composite RSI provides a more reliable and robust measure of market momentum, enhancing the decision-making process for traders and investors alike.

Core components of an NNFX algorithmic trading strategy
The NNFX algorithm is built on the principles of trend, momentum, and volatility. There are six core components in the NNFX trading algorithm:
1. Volatility - price volatility; e.g., Average True Range, True Range Double, Close-to-Close, etc.
2. Baseline - a moving average to identify price trend
3. Confirmation 1 - a technical indicator used to identify trends
4. Confirmation 2 - a technical indicator used to identify trends
5. Continuation - a technical indicator used to identify trends
6. Volatility/Volume - a technical indicator used to identify volatility/volume breakouts/breakdown
7. Exit - a technical indicator used to determine when a trend is exhausted
What is Volatility in the NNFX trading system?
In the NNFX (No Nonsense Forex) trading system, ATR (Average True Range) is typically used to measure the volatility of an asset. It is used as a part of the system to help determine the appropriate stop loss and take profit levels for a trade. ATR is calculated by taking the average of the true range values over a specified period.
True range is calculated as the maximum of the following values:
-Current high minus the current low
-Absolute value of the current high minus the previous close
-Absolute value of the current low minus the previous close
ATR is a dynamic indicator that changes with changes in volatility. As volatility increases, the value of ATR increases, and as volatility decreases, the value of ATR decreases. By using ATR in NNFX system, traders can adjust their stop loss and take profit levels according to the volatility of the asset being traded. This helps to ensure that the trade is given enough room to move, while also minimizing potential losses.
Other types of volatility include True Range Double (TRD), Close-to-Close, and Garman-Klass
What is a Baseline indicator?
The baseline is essentially a moving average, and is used to determine the overall direction of the market.
The baseline in the NNFX system is used to filter out trades that are not in line with the long-term trend of the market. The baseline is plotted on the chart along with other indicators, such as the Moving Average (MA), the Relative Strength Index (RSI), and the Average True Range (ATR).
Trades are only taken when the price is in the same direction as the baseline. For example, if the baseline is sloping upwards, only long trades are taken, and if the baseline is sloping downwards, only short trades are taken. This approach helps to ensure that trades are in line with the overall trend of the market, and reduces the risk of entering trades that are likely to fail.
By using a baseline in the NNFX system, traders can have a clear reference point for determining the overall trend of the market, and can make more informed trading decisions. The baseline helps to filter out noise and false signals, and ensures that trades are taken in the direction of the long-term trend.
What is a Confirmation indicator?
Confirmation indicators are technical indicators that are used to confirm the signals generated by primary indicators. Primary indicators are the core indicators used in the NNFX system, such as the Average True Range (ATR), the Moving Average (MA), and the Relative Strength Index (RSI).
The purpose of the confirmation indicators is to reduce false signals and improve the accuracy of the trading system. They are designed to confirm the signals generated by the primary indicators by providing additional information about the strength and direction of the trend.
Some examples of confirmation indicators that may be used in the NNFX system include the Bollinger Bands, the MACD (Moving Average Convergence Divergence), and the MACD Oscillator. These indicators can provide information about the volatility, momentum, and trend strength of the market, and can be used to confirm the signals generated by the primary indicators.
In the NNFX system, confirmation indicators are used in combination with primary indicators and other filters to create a trading system that is robust and reliable. By using multiple indicators to confirm trading signals, the system aims to reduce the risk of false signals and improve the overall profitability of the trades.
What is a Continuation indicator?
In the NNFX (No Nonsense Forex) trading system, a continuation indicator is a technical indicator that is used to confirm a current trend and predict that the trend is likely to continue in the same direction. A continuation indicator is typically used in conjunction with other indicators in the system, such as a baseline indicator, to provide a comprehensive trading strategy.
What is a Volatility/Volume indicator?
Volume indicators, such as the On Balance Volume (OBV), the Chaikin Money Flow (CMF), or the Volume Price Trend (VPT), are used to measure the amount of buying and selling activity in a market. They are based on the trading volume of the market, and can provide information about the strength of the trend. In the NNFX system, volume indicators are used to confirm trading signals generated by the Moving Average and the Relative Strength Index. Volatility indicators include Average Direction Index, Waddah Attar, and Volatility Ratio. In the NNFX trading system, volatility is a proxy for volume and vice versa.
By using volume indicators as confirmation tools, the NNFX trading system aims to reduce the risk of false signals and improve the overall profitability of trades. These indicators can provide additional information about the market that is not captured by the primary indicators, and can help traders to make more informed trading decisions. In addition, volume indicators can be used to identify potential changes in market trends and to confirm the strength of price movements.
What is an Exit indicator?
The exit indicator is used in conjunction with other indicators in the system, such as the Moving Average (MA), the Relative Strength Index (RSI), and the Average True Range (ATR), to provide a comprehensive trading strategy.
The exit indicator in the NNFX system can be any technical indicator that is deemed effective at identifying optimal exit points. Examples of exit indicators that are commonly used include the Parabolic SAR, the Average Directional Index (ADX), and the Chandelier Exit.
The purpose of the exit indicator is to identify when a trend is likely to reverse or when the market conditions have changed, signaling the need to exit a trade. By using an exit indicator, traders can manage their risk and prevent significant losses.
In the NNFX system, the exit indicator is used in conjunction with a stop loss and a take profit order to maximize profits and minimize losses. The stop loss order is used to limit the amount of loss that can be incurred if the trade goes against the trader, while the take profit order is used to lock in profits when the trade is moving in the trader's favor.
Overall, the use of an exit indicator in the NNFX trading system is an important component of a comprehensive trading strategy. It allows traders to manage their risk effectively and improve the profitability of their trades by exiting at the right time.
How does Loxx's GKD (Giga Kaleidoscope Modularized Trading System) implement the NNFX algorithm outlined above?
Loxx's GKD v2.0 system has five types of modules (indicators/strategies). These modules are:
1. GKD-BT - Backtesting module (Volatility, Number 1 in the NNFX algorithm)
2. GKD-B - Baseline module (Baseline and Volatility/Volume, Numbers 1 and 2 in the NNFX algorithm)
3. GKD-C - Confirmation 1/2 and Continuation module (Confirmation 1/2 and Continuation, Numbers 3, 4, and 5 in the NNFX algorithm)
4. GKD-V - Volatility/Volume module (Confirmation 1/2, Number 6 in the NNFX algorithm)
5. GKD-E - Exit module (Exit, Number 7 in the NNFX algorithm)
(additional module types will added in future releases)
Each module interacts with every module by passing data to A backtest module wherein the various components of the GKD system are combined to create a trading signal.
That is, the Baseline indicator passes its data to Volatility/Volume. The Volatility/Volume indicator passes its values to the Confirmation 1 indicator. The Confirmation 1 indicator passes its values to the Confirmation 2 indicator. The Confirmation 2 indicator passes its values to the Continuation indicator. The Continuation indicator passes its values to the Exit indicator, and finally, the Exit indicator passes its values to the Backtest strategy.
This chaining of indicators requires that each module conform to Loxx's GKD protocol, therefore allowing for the testing of every possible combination of technical indicators that make up the six components of the NNFX algorithm.
What does the application of the GKD trading system look like?
Example trading system:
Backtest: Full GKD Backtest
Baseline: Hull Moving Average
Volatility/Volume: Hurst Exponent
Confirmation 1: Composite RSI
Confirmation 2: uf2018 as shown
Continuation: Vortex
Exit: Rex Oscillator
Each GKD indicator is denoted with a module identifier of either: GKD-BT, GKD-B, GKD-C, GKD-V, or GKD-E. This allows traders to understand to which module each indicator belongs and where each indicator fits into the GKD system.

RSI TrueLevel StrategyThis strategy is a momentum-based strategy that uses the Relative Strength Index (RSI) indicator and a TrueLevel envelope to generate trade signals.
The strategy uses user-defined input parameters to calculate TrueLevel envelopes for 14 different lengths. The TrueLevel envelope is a volatility-based technical indicator that consists of upper and lower bands. The upper band is calculated by adding a multiple of the standard deviation to a linear regression line of the price data, while the lower band is calculated by subtracting a multiple of the standard deviation from the same regression line.
The strategy generates long signals when the RSI crosses above the oversold level or when the price crosses above the selected lower band of the TrueLevel envelope. It generates short signals when the RSI crosses below the overbought level or when the price crosses below the selected upper band of the TrueLevel envelope.
The strategy allows for long and short trades and sets the trade size as a percentage of the account equity. The colors of the bands and fills are also customizable through user-defined input parameters.
In this strategy, the 12th TrueLevel band was chosen due to its ability to capture significant price movements while still providing a reasonable level of noise reduction. The strategy utilizes a total of 14 TrueLevel bands, each with varying lengths. The 12th band, with a length of 2646, strikes a balance between sensitivity to market changes and reducing false signals, making it a suitable choice for this strategy.
RSI Parameters:
In this strategy, the RSI overbought and oversold levels are set at 65 and 40, respectively. These values were chosen to filter out more noise in the market and focus on stronger trends. Traditional RSI overbought and oversold levels are set at 70 and 30, respectively. By raising the oversold level and lowering the overbought level, the strategy aims to identify more significant trend reversals and potential trade opportunities.
Of course, the parameters can be adjusted to suit individual preferences.
KDJ-RSI Buy/Sell Signal ver. 1It is an indicator combining the RSI indicator and KDJ indicator.
Buy signal will triggers when:
RSI signal positioning below 25
J value crosses below 0
Sell signal will triggers when:
RSI signal positioning above 85
J value crosses above 100
***********
Please take note that this indicator may be not accurate for every chart in the crypto market, but it is most appropriate to use it in BTC/USDT charts, mainly for 1h, 4h, and 1d candles. Not recommended to use it for 1m or 15m leverage trades, this indicator might be altered by FOMO sentiment.
MACD (KST Based) V2This is the next version of the original indicator:
To anyone unfamiliar with KST, it is a cousin of RSI. Basically, this indicator is analyzed like we would analyze charts using Stochastic RSI. It is basically an "energy oscillator".
This indicator considers price with the theory of relativity.
Relativity works this way: A downward moving MACD means that price velocity is slowing down. An upward moving one means that price is accelerating .
KST-Based MACD is all about relative performance. Exponential charts behave identically to horizontal ones.
Compare SPX and SPX/CURRCIR and see for yourself.
Just like the classic MACD, bear/bull signals appear on the histogram.
A band is drawn around the MACD, which is useful to pinpoint overbought/oversold conditions / squeezes.
It is also very useful for pinpointing / confirming divergences.
Tread lightly, for this is hallowed ground.
-Father Grigori
P.S. This is version 2 of the original one. Custom formulae are used all around this indicator. Basically, every formula has been reimagined for it to work in super-long-term timeframes. This indicator, compared to the previous one, doesn't ignore any chart data. It takes every single candle into consideration.
P.S.2. Pro tip: Use two separate windows, one with KST-MACD and one with KST-Histogram, just like in the cover.
Trend Angle Candle ColorIntroduction:
As a trader, understanding the trend of the market is crucial for making informed decisions. One way to gain insight into the market trend is by using technical indicators, which are mathematical calculations that provide traders with valuable information about price action. In this post, we will explore a unique indicator called the "Trend Angle Candle Color" that not only identifies the trend but also visualizes it using color-coded candlesticks. We'll dive into the script, discuss its key components, and explain how you can benefit from using it in your trading strategy.
Script Overview:
The Trend Angle Candle Color Indicator is written in the Pine Script language for the TradingView platform. The indicator utilizes a combination of Exponential Moving Average (EMA), Average True Range (ATR), and Epanechnikov Kernel function to calculate the trend angle, which is then represented by color-coded candlesticks. The script offers several customizable inputs, such as the length of the lookback period, the scale (sensitivity), and the smoothing factor.
Key Components of the Script:
Inputs:
Length: Determines the lookback period for calculating the trend.
Scale: Adjusts the sensitivity of the indicator.
Smoothing: Controls the degree of smoothing applied to the angle calculation.
Smoothing Factor: Adjusts the weight of the Epanechnikov Kernel function.
Functions:
grad(src): A function that takes an input value and returns a corresponding color from a predefined gradient.
ema(source): An Exponential Moving Average function that smoothens the price data.
atan2(y, x) and degrees(float source): Functions that convert the slope into an angle in radians and then into degrees.
epanechnikov_kernel(_src, _size, _h, _r): A function that applies the Epanechnikov Kernel smoothing method to the angle data.
Calculations:
ATR: Calculates the Average True Range using the EMA function.
Slope: Determines the slope of the price change over the specified lookback period.
Angle_rad: Converts the slope into an angle in radians.
Degrees: Applies the Epanechnikov Kernel smoothing function to the angle data and scales it to a range between 0 to 100.
Visualization:
Colour: Assigns a color to each candlestick based on the calculated degree value using the grad() function.
Barcolor(colour) and plotcandle(): Functions that display the color-coded candlesticks on the chart.
Benefits of Using the Trend Angle Candle Color Indicator:
Easy Visualization: The color-coded candlesticks provide a simple and intuitive way to understand the market trend direction and strength at a glance.
Customizable Parameters: The customizable inputs allow traders to fine-tune the indicator to their preferred settings, suiting their trading style and strategy.
Versatility: The Trend Angle Candle Color Indicator can be used across various timeframes and financial instruments, making it a valuable addition to any trader's toolkit.
Conclusion:
The Trend Angle Candle Color Indicator is a powerful tool that can enhance your trading strategy by providing a visual representation of the market trend. The unique combination of EMA, ATR, and Epanechnikov Kernel smoothing helps create a more accurate and easy-to-understand trend angle calculation. By incorporating this indicator into your trading analysis, you can gain better insight into market dynamics and make more informed trading decisions.
Strategy Creator5 indicators. Backtesting available. Uses ADX, RSI, Stochastic, MACD, and crossing EMAs (1,2, or 3). This strategy creator allows you to turn on or off these indicators and adjust the parameters for each indicator. It allows you to make one trade at a time e.g the next trade doesn't open until the last one closes. (You are also able to enter how many trades in one direction you want for example if you want only 2 long trades in a row, then the strategy waits for the next short position without making anymore long trades. Once there are 2 short positions in a row, it waits for a long position). The code can be edited to for automated trading by editing the comment in the source code for the strategy parameters. This took many hours to finish. ENJOY.
RSI Trending with DivergencesThis script uses the RSI and RSI divergences to mark signals where the rsi is both below/above the 50, below/above its moving average, and where the last regular or hidden divergence matches that state. The RSI is built into the indicator, so you don't need it in your bottom pane if you don't want it, I just put one there for illustrative purposes. Please note it will not print the same signal consecutively, as it is meant to show an overall direction, not the in and out fluctuations. I suggest using it in conjunction with some moving averages so you can ignore signals not in the trend.
RSI Exponential Smoothing (Expo)█ Background information
The Relative Strength Index (RSI) and the Exponential Moving Average (EMA) are two popular indicators. Traders use these indicators to understand market trends and predict future price changes. However, traders often wonder which indicator is better: RSI or EMA.
What if these indicators give similar results? To find out, we wanted to study the relationship between RSI and EMA. We focused on a hypothesis: when the RSI goes above 50, it might be similar to the price crossing above a certain length of EMA. Similarly, when the RSI goes below 50, it might be similar to the price crossing below a certain length of EMA.
Our goal was simple: to figure out if there is any connection between RSI and EMA.
Conclusion: Yes, it seems that there is a correlation between RSI and EMA, and this indicator clearly displays that relationship. Read more about the study here:
█ Overview of the indicator
The RSI Exponential Smoothing indicator displays RSI levels with clear overbought and oversold zones, shown as easy-to-understand moving averages, and the RSI 50 line as an EMA. Another excellent feature is the added FIB levels. To activate, open the settings and click on "FIB Bands." These levels act as short-term support and resistance levels which can be used for scalping.
█ Benefits of using this indicator instead of regular RSI
The findings about the Relative Strength Index (RSI) and the Exponential Moving Average (EMA) highlight that both indicators are equally accurate (when it comes to crossings), meaning traders can choose either one without compromising accuracy. This empowers traders to pick the indicator that suits their personal preferences and trading style.
█ How it works
Crossings over/under the value of 50
The EMA line in the indicator acts as the corresponding 50 line in the RSI. When the RSI crosses the value 50 equals when Close crosses the EMA line.
Bouncess from the value 50
In this example, we can see that the EMA line on the chart acts as support/resistance equals when RSI rejects the 50 level.
Overbought and Oversold
The indicator comes with overbought and oversold bands equal when RSI becomes overbought or oversold.
█ How to use
This visual representation helps traders to apply RSI strategies directly on the price chart, potentially making RSI trading easier for traders.

Stochastic RSI+ by MartialChartsFXThe original Stochastic RSI was built to generate more signals than either of the ordinary RSI or Stochastic Oscillator.
This Stochastic RSI+ is a customized Stochastic RSI meant to be less obtrusive as a lower indicator with several added components for improved utility.
The Stochastic RSI+ has 3 components:
1. The Single line color changing Stochastic RSI (%K line)
2. Divergence detection using one of three oscillators (RSI, Stochastic, or the default Stochastic RSI). Divergence may be detected in Strict or Non-Strict modes.
3. Strength indicator
Single Line Stochastic RSI (%K)
To make manual detection of divergence easier, I decided to reduce the Stochastic RSI down to just the %K line. In order to see how the %K line interacts with the %D line without having the extra line as a distraction, the %K line has been coded to change colors based on its relation to the %D line.
The Stochastic %K is green when %K is greater than %D
The Stochastic %K is red when %K is less than %D
The oversold region is 0-20 and highlighted in a light green on the scale.
The overbought region is 80-100 and highlighted in light red on the scale.
Divergence Detection
The optional divergence detection settings include the selection of 3 oscillators: RSI, Stochastic, or Stochastic RSI (default). Regardless of which oscillator is selected for divergence detection the indicator will only show the Stochastic RSI's %K line. This gives the trader the change to see if divergence is present on multiple oscillators. The divergence detection does not draw trendlines on the chart or the lower indicator, instead it plots an H (for Hidden Divergence) or a D (for Divergence) in green (bullish) or red (bearish) where the 2nd point of divergence is located based on the oscillator used and whether the detection is set to strict or not. This programming will not capture every instance of divergence. You should still manually verify any divergence indicated.
Strict Divergence enabled is the traditional method of divergence detection where swing points on the price charts align with peaks and valleys on the oscillator. Where there are not matching peaks and valleys on both price and the oscillator, divergence is not detected.
Strict Divergence disabled is an alternate divergence detection by connecting swing points on the price chart and then checking to see what the corresponding oscillator values are regardless of if it is a peak or valley on the oscillator. To draw this method manually would be drawing the oscillator trendline through the %K line to connect which ever points on Stochastic RSI line up with the swing points on the price chart. This will find more divergence than would ordinarily be overlooked.
Asset Strength
The Strength indicator is the 2nd set of numbers on the indicator information line. Values above 0 are bullish, Values below 0 are bearish. Strength is measured by comparing fast and slow RSI calculations to gauge a rate of change towards bullish or bearish.
Strength color changes:
Dark green to light green = asset is bullish but getting weaker
Light green to dark green = asset is bullish and getting stronger
Red to pink = asset is bearish but getting stronger
Pink to Red = asset is bearish and getting weaker
Usage
Can be used in all asset classes. This is a Stochastic RSI oscillator so the same Stochastic RSI usage rules apply.
The ways that I use Stochastic RSI+:
1. To gauge if a zone is likely to hold or be broken.
- Buying zones have better confluence when Stochastic RSI+ is very oversold (0-5) and have bullish divergence.
- Selling zone have better confluence when Stochastic RSI+ is very overbought (95-100) and have bearish divergence.
2. For divergence to time entries and to identify continuations, retracements, reversals, and stop hunts.

Forex RadarForex Radar Indicator: A Powerful Tool for Analyzing Currency Strength and Weakness
Introduction
The Forex Radar Indicator is an innovative tool that provides a visual representation of the relative strength and weakness of various currencies in the Forex market. This indicator is designed to help traders identify potential trading opportunities by analyzing the performance of different currency pairs. In this blog post, we will explore the features and benefits of the Forex Radar Indicator, and explain how to use it effectively in your trading strategy.
Features of the Forex Radar Indicator
1. Spider Plot Visualization
The Forex Radar Indicator uses a spider plot to display the relative strength and weakness of various currencies. A spider plot is a graphical representation of multivariate data, in which each variable is plotted on a separate axis that radiates from the center of the plot. The data points are connected by lines, forming a web-like pattern that makes it easy to compare the performance of different currencies.
2. Customizable Color Scheme
The Forex Radar Indicator allows users to customize the color scheme for each currency, making it easy to identify individual currencies on the spider plot. This feature can be particularly helpful for traders who prefer specific colors for each currency, or who want to use a color scheme that matches their trading platform or charting tools.
3. EMA Divergence and RSI Style Selection
The Forex Radar Indicator offers users the flexibility to choose between two different styles: EMA divergence and RSI. The EMA divergence style displays the difference between a short-term and long-term exponential moving average, while the RSI style shows the relative strength index of the currency pairs. By selecting the preferred style, traders can customize the indicator to suit their specific trading style and strategy.
4. Flexible Input Parameters
The Forex Radar Indicator offers flexible input parameters, allowing users to customize the indicator according to their trading preferences. These parameters include the length of the moving average, the filter value for the moving average, and the normalization length. By adjusting these parameters, traders can fine-tune the indicator to suit their specific trading style and strategy.
Using the Forex Radar Indicator in Your Trading Strategy
The Forex Radar Indicator can be a valuable tool in any trading strategy, as it provides a visual representation of the currency strength and weakness. Here are some tips on how to use the Forex Radar Indicator effectively in your trading:
1. Identify Currency Strength and Weakness
The main purpose of the Forex Radar Indicator is to help traders identify the strength and weakness of various currencies. By analyzing the spider plot, traders can quickly determine which currencies are performing well and which are underperforming. This information can be used to identify potential trading opportunities, as traders can focus on currency pairs that feature a strong currency against a weak one.
2. Choose Between EMA Divergence and RSI Style
Depending on your trading style and strategy, you can choose between the EMA divergence and RSI style options provided by the Forex Radar Indicator. Both styles offer valuable insights into currency strength and weakness, but they may highlight different aspects of the market. By selecting the style that best aligns with your trading approach, you can maximize the effectiveness of the indicator in your trading strategy.

To improve the accuracy and effectiveness of your trading strategy, consider combining the Forex Radar Indicator with other technical analysis tools, such as trend lines, support and resistance levels, and other indicators.
Conclusion
The Forex Radar Indicator is a powerful tool that can help traders gain a better understanding of the relative strength and weakness of various currencies in the Forex market. By incorporating the Forex Radar Indicator into your trading strategy, you can quickly identify potential trading opportunities and make more informed trading decisions. With its customizable color scheme, EMA divergence and RSI style options, and flexible input parameters, the Forex Radar Indicator is a versatile tool that can be adapted to suit any trading style or strategy.
DCA Detective | v1.0BINANCE:FETBUSD
The DCA Detective | v1.0 strategy revolutionizes the realm of DCA (Dollar Cost Averaging) trading, integrating advanced trade initiation predicated on savvy Technical Analysis (TA) signals. This strategy's distinctive feature rests in its capacity to leverage TA signals or preset percentage levels to trigger safety orders, providing adaptability based on your preference. Bid farewell to rudimentary safety order placements.
The strategy incorporates a comprehensive array of parameters:
RSI Oversold Level - a predetermined level signaling a potential oversold condition where a price rebound may be imminent.
Divergence Lookback Period - this parameter specifies the duration over which the system scrutinizes for any disparity between price and RSI.
Minimum Bars Between Trades - this guarantees a specific interval between trades, thwarting excessive trading and promoting diversification over time.
Rate of Change (ROC) - a momentum-oriented technical indicator that gauges the percentage alteration in price between the current price and the price a certain number of periods back.
Stochastic Length and Oversold - parameters that delineate the Stochastic Oscillator, another momentum indicator that compares a particular closing price of a security to a spectrum of its prices over a specified period.
Higher Timeframe RSI Length and Oversold Level - for heightened precision, these parameters operate on lower timeframes, offering a wider outlook and aiding in the filtering of market noise.
The DCA Detective | v1.0 strategy deploys bullish divergence identified by the RSI and a crossover of the RSI over the oversold level as primary entry signals. Safety order conditions can be set to either Percentage or Smart, based on your preference. The "Smart" condition utilizes the same rules as the initial entry order to place safety orders.
The strategy also entails additional configuration settings such as the maximum safety orders, safety order price deviation, safety order volume scale, safety order step scale, and take profit percentage.
Main goal is to catch possible market bottom/dip.
In summary, the DCA Detective | v1.0 strategy proposes a sophisticated and nuanced approach to DCA trading. It taps into the potential of TA signals to initiate trades, while using safety orders as a risk management tool, with the intent to minimize possible losses and decrease overall time in trade. This strategy stands as a testament to refined trading tactics, crafted for those who endorse strategic investment and measured risk-taking.
Through webhook integration, the DCA Detective | v1.0 strategy can send signals to 3commas to initiate trades, adjust safety orders, and take profit at the designated percentages. This provides traders with a hands-off approach to trading, allowing them to focus on other areas of their portfolio or strategy while the DCA Detective | v1.0 strategy runs in the background.
So far, I haven't come across a good DCA strategy based on TA orders, so I created my own. I was troubled by my prolonged exposure to red bags, but with proper configuration, this strategy should get you out of the trade as soon as possible. I have managed to enter most of the good coins at an unbeatable average trade time and also eliminate the maximum trade time to less than 10 days !
JS-TechTrading: Supertrend-Strategy_Basic versionAre you looking for a reliable and profitable algorithmic trading strategy for TradingView? If so, you might be interested in our Supertrend basic strategy, which is based on three powerful indicators: Supertrend (ATR), RSI and EMA.
Supertrend is a trend-following indicator that helps you identify the direction and strength of the market. It also gives you clear signals for entry and exit points based on price movements.
RSI is a momentum indicator that measures the speed and change of price movements. It helps you filter out false signals and avoid overbought or oversold conditions.
EMA is a moving average indicator that smooths out price fluctuations and shows you the long-term trend of the market. It helps you confirm the validity of your trades and avoid trading against the trend.
Our Supertrend basic strategy combines these three indicators to give you a simple yet effective way to trade any market. Here's how it works:
- For long trades, you enter when the price is above Supertrend and pulls back below it (the low of the candle crosses Supertrend) and then rebounds above it (the high of the next candle goes above the pullback candle). You exit when the price closes below Supertrend or when you reach your target profit or stop loss.
- For short trades, you enter when the price is below Supertrend and pulls back above it (the high of the candle crosses Supertrend) and then drops below it (the low of the next candle goes below the pullback candle). You exit when the price closes above Supertrend or when you reach your target profit or stop loss.
- You can also use RSI and EMA filters to improve your results. For long trades, you only enter if RSI is above 50 and price is above 200 EMA. For short trades, you only enter if RSI is below 50 and price is below 200 EMA.
- You can set your stop loss and target profit as a percentage of your entry price or based on other criteria. You can also adjust the parameters of each indicator according to your preferences and risk tolerance.
Our Supertrend basic strategy is easy to use and has been tested on various markets and time frames. It can help you capture consistent profits while minimizing your losses.

True OscillatorThe True Oscillator is an exceptional trading indicator that provides traders with highly accurate and reliable signals. While the RSI has been a popular indicator for decades, it has limitations, as it only considers closing price action which can be insufficient in providing a complete market trend analysis.
The True Oscillator, on the other hand, has been meticulously crafted to address these limitations. It considers multiple critical data points, including Close, High, Low, Open, Moving Averages, Weighted Moving Averages, Balance of Power, Center of Gravity, Average Sentiment, and Volume Weighted Moving Averages. These data points are perfectly weighted and blended into a single index momentum oscillator, replacing the RSI.
What makes the True Oscillator exceptional is its superior accuracy on individual bars. Since it considers more data points, it provides a more comprehensive picture of market trends, allowing traders to make better trading decisions based on highly accurate signals. Furthermore, the True Oscillator's accuracy throughout market swings ensures that traders have more reliable signals on both the upswing and downswing.
In terms of overall accuracy, the True Oscillator's ability to weigh and blend multiple data points results in a highly robust and reliable indicator that traders can depend on. The True Oscillator's unparalleled accuracy provides traders with a highly dependable indication of market trends.
The True Oscillator is a powerful trading indicator that has taken technical analysis to the next level. Its ability to consider multiple data points makes it a more reliable indicator than other momentum oscillators.
GKD-C Volatility-Adaptive Rapid RSI T3 [Loxx]Giga Kaleidoscope GKD-C Volatility-Adaptive Rapid RSI T3 is a Confirmation module included in Loxx's "Giga Kaleidoscope Modularized Trading System".
█ GKD-C Volatility-Adaptive Rapid RSI T3
Adaptive Momentum: Mastering Market Dynamics with Advanced RSI Techniques
The Volatility-Adaptive Rapid RSI T3 is a sophisticated technical indicator that combines the concepts of Rapid RSI, Volatility Adaptation, and T3 smoothing. This combination results in a more responsive, accurate, and adaptable momentum oscillator compared to the regular RSI.
The Rapid RSI is a variation of the RSI designed to provide faster and more responsive signals. It does this by modifying the way average gains and losses are calculated, using a simple moving average (SMA) instead of an exponential moving average (EMA). This makes the Rapid RSI more sensitive to recent price changes, allowing traders to identify overbought and oversold conditions more quickly.
Volatility adaptation is a concept that adjusts the parameters of an indicator based on the current market volatility. In the context of the Volatility-Adaptive Rapid RSI T3, the volatility is calculated using the standard deviation of price changes over a specified period. This value is then used to adjust the T3 smoothing period, making the indicator more adaptive to changing market conditions. When the market is volatile, the indicator will respond more quickly to price changes, while in less volatile markets, the indicator will be less sensitive, reducing the likelihood of false signals.
T3 smoothing, developed by Tim Tilson, is a powerful and flexible moving average technique that aims to reduce lag and improve the responsiveness of an indicator. It utilizes a combination of multiple exponential moving averages with varying degrees of weighting to create a smoother and more accurate representation of the underlying data. The T3 smoothing method is applied to the price data before the Rapid RSI calculation, enhancing the overall responsiveness of the indicator.
By combining these three concepts, the Volatility-Adaptive Rapid RSI T3 offers several advantages over the regular RSI:
1. Faster and more responsive signals: The Rapid RSI and T3 smoothing components allow the indicator to respond more quickly to price changes, potentially leading to earlier entry and exit points.
2. Adaptability to market conditions: The volatility adaptation feature enables the indicator to adjust its sensitivity based on the current market volatility. This helps to reduce false signals in less volatile markets and increase responsiveness in more volatile markets.
2. Smoother representation of price data: The T3 smoothing technique provides a more accurate and smoother representation of the underlying data, making it easier to identify trends and potential reversals.
In conclusion, the Volatility-Adaptive Rapid RSI T3 is a powerful technical indicator that offers several improvements over the regular RSI. Its responsiveness, adaptability, and smoothing capabilities make it a valuable tool for traders seeking to identify overbought and oversold conditions more accurately. However, it is essential to remember that no indicator is perfect, and using the Volatility-Adaptive Rapid RSI T3 in conjunction with other technical indicators and analysis tools can provide more reliable trading signals.

What are Heiken Ashi "better" candles?
Heiken Ashi "better" candles are a modified version of the standard Heiken Ashi candles, which are a popular charting technique used in technical analysis. Heiken Ashi candles help traders identify trends and potential reversal points by smoothing out price data and reducing market noise. The "better formula" was proposed by Sebastian Schmidt in an article published by BNP Paribas in Warrants & Zertifikate, a German magazine, in August 2004. The aim of this formula is to further improve the smoothing of the Heiken Ashi chart and enhance its effectiveness in identifying trends and reversals.
Standard Heiken Ashi candles are calculated using the following formulas:
Heiken Ashi Close = (Open + High + Low + Close) / 4
Heiken Ashi Open = (Previous Heiken Ashi Open + Previous Heiken Ashi Close) / 2
Heiken Ashi High = Max (High, Heiken Ashi Open, Heiken Ashi Close)
Heiken Ashi Low = Min (Low, Heiken Ashi Open, Heiken Ashi Close)
The "better formula" modifies the standard Heiken Ashi calculation by incorporating additional smoothing, which can help reduce noise and make it easier to identify trends and reversals. The modified formulas for Heiken Ashi "better" candles are as follows:
Better Heiken Ashi Close = (Open + High + Low + Close) / 4
Better Heiken Ashi Open = (Previous Better Heiken Ashi Open + Previous Better Heiken Ashi Close) / 2
Better Heiken Ashi High = Max (High, Better Heiken Ashi Open, Better Heiken Ashi Close)
Better Heiken Ashi Low = Min (Low, Better Heiken Ashi Open, Better Heiken Ashi Close)
Smoothing Factor = 2 / (N + 1), where N is the chosen period for smoothing
Smoothed Better Heiken Ashi Open = (Better Heiken Ashi Open * Smoothing Factor) + (Previous Smoothed Better Heiken Ashi Open * (1 - Smoothing Factor))
Smoothed Better Heiken Ashi Close = (Better Heiken Ashi Close * Smoothing Factor) + (Previous Smoothed Better Heiken Ashi Close * (1 - Smoothing Factor))
The smoothed Better Heiken Ashi Open and Close values are then used to calculate the smoothed Better Heiken Ashi High and Low values, resulting in "better" candles that provide a clearer representation of the market trend and potential reversal points.
It's important to note that, like any other technical analysis tool, Heiken Ashi "better" candles are not foolproof and should be used in conjunction with other indicators and analysis techniques to make well-informed trading decisions.
Heiken Ashi "better" candles, as mentioned previously, provide a clearer representation of market trends and potential reversal points by reducing noise and smoothing out price data. When using these candles in conjunction with other technical analysis tools and indicators, traders can gain valuable insights into market behavior and make more informed decisions.
To effectively use Heiken Ashi "better" candles in your trading strategy, consider the following tips:
Trend Identification: Heiken Ashi "better" candles can help you identify the prevailing trend in the market. When the majority of the candles are green (or another color, depending on your chart settings) and there are no or few lower wicks, it may indicate a strong uptrend. Conversely, when the majority of the candles are red (or another color) and there are no or few upper wicks, it may signal a strong downtrend.
Trend Reversals: Look for potential trend reversals when a change in the color of the candles occurs, especially when accompanied by longer wicks. For example, if a green candle with a long lower wick is followed by a red candle, it could indicate a bearish reversal. Similarly, a red candle with a long upper wick followed by a green candle may suggest a bullish reversal.
Support and Resistance: You can use Heiken Ashi "better" candles to identify potential support and resistance levels. When the candles are consistently moving in one direction and then suddenly change color with longer wicks, it could indicate the presence of a support or resistance level.
Stop-Loss and Take-Profit: Using Heiken Ashi "better" candles can help you manage risk by determining optimal stop-loss and take-profit levels. For instance, you can place your stop-loss below the low of the most recent green candle in an uptrend or above the high of the most recent red candle in a downtrend.
Confirming Signals: Heiken Ashi "better" candles should be used in conjunction with other technical indicators, such as moving averages, oscillators, or chart patterns, to confirm signals and improve the accuracy of your analysis.
In this implementation, you have the choice of AMA, KAMA, or T3 smoothing. These are as follows:
Kaufman Adaptive Moving Average (KAMA)
The Kaufman Adaptive Moving Average (KAMA) is a type of adaptive moving average used in technical analysis to smooth out price fluctuations and identify trends. The KAMA adjusts its smoothing factor based on the market's volatility, making it more responsive in volatile markets and smoother in calm markets. The KAMA is calculated using three different efficiency ratios that determine the appropriate smoothing factor for the current market conditions. These ratios are based on the noise level of the market, the speed at which the market is moving, and the length of the moving average. The KAMA is a popular choice among traders who prefer to use adaptive indicators to identify trends and potential reversals.
Adaptive Moving Average
The Adaptive Moving Average (AMA) is a type of moving average that adjusts its sensitivity to price movements based on market conditions. It uses a ratio between the current price and the highest and lowest prices over a certain lookback period to determine its level of smoothing. The AMA can help reduce lag and increase responsiveness to changes in trend direction, making it useful for traders who want to follow trends while avoiding false signals. The AMA is calculated by multiplying a smoothing constant with the difference between the current price and the previous AMA value, then adding the result to the previous AMA value.
T3
The T3 moving average is a type of technical indicator used in financial analysis to identify trends in price movements. It is similar to the Exponential Moving Average (EMA) and the Double Exponential Moving Average (DEMA), but uses a different smoothing algorithm.
The T3 moving average is calculated using a series of exponential moving averages that are designed to filter out noise and smooth the data. The resulting smoothed data is then weighted with a non-linear function to produce a final output that is more responsive to changes in trend direction.
The T3 moving average can be customized by adjusting the length of the moving average, as well as the weighting function used to smooth the data. It is commonly used in conjunction with other technical indicators as part of a larger trading strategy.
█ Giga Kaleidoscope Modularized Trading System
Core components of an NNFX algorithmic trading strategy
The NNFX algorithm is built on the principles of trend, momentum, and volatility. There are six core components in the NNFX trading algorithm:
1. Volatility - price volatility; e.g., Average True Range, True Range Double, Close-to-Close, etc.
2. Baseline - a moving average to identify price trend
3. Confirmation 1 - a technical indicator used to identify trends
4. Confirmation 2 - a technical indicator used to identify trends
5. Continuation - a technical indicator used to identify trends
6. Volatility/Volume - a technical indicator used to identify volatility/volume breakouts/breakdown
7. Exit - a technical indicator used to determine when a trend is exhausted
What is Volatility in the NNFX trading system?
In the NNFX (No Nonsense Forex) trading system, ATR (Average True Range) is typically used to measure the volatility of an asset. It is used as a part of the system to help determine the appropriate stop loss and take profit levels for a trade. ATR is calculated by taking the average of the true range values over a specified period.
True range is calculated as the maximum of the following values:
-Current high minus the current low
-Absolute value of the current high minus the previous close
-Absolute value of the current low minus the previous close
ATR is a dynamic indicator that changes with changes in volatility. As volatility increases, the value of ATR increases, and as volatility decreases, the value of ATR decreases. By using ATR in NNFX system, traders can adjust their stop loss and take profit levels according to the volatility of the asset being traded. This helps to ensure that the trade is given enough room to move, while also minimizing potential losses.
Other types of volatility include True Range Double (TRD), Close-to-Close, and Garman-Klass
What is a Baseline indicator?
The baseline is essentially a moving average, and is used to determine the overall direction of the market.
The baseline in the NNFX system is used to filter out trades that are not in line with the long-term trend of the market. The baseline is plotted on the chart along with other indicators, such as the Moving Average (MA), the Relative Strength Index (RSI), and the Average True Range (ATR).
Trades are only taken when the price is in the same direction as the baseline. For example, if the baseline is sloping upwards, only long trades are taken, and if the baseline is sloping downwards, only short trades are taken. This approach helps to ensure that trades are in line with the overall trend of the market, and reduces the risk of entering trades that are likely to fail.
By using a baseline in the NNFX system, traders can have a clear reference point for determining the overall trend of the market, and can make more informed trading decisions. The baseline helps to filter out noise and false signals, and ensures that trades are taken in the direction of the long-term trend.
What is a Confirmation indicator?
Confirmation indicators are technical indicators that are used to confirm the signals generated by primary indicators. Primary indicators are the core indicators used in the NNFX system, such as the Average True Range (ATR), the Moving Average (MA), and the Relative Strength Index (RSI).
The purpose of the confirmation indicators is to reduce false signals and improve the accuracy of the trading system. They are designed to confirm the signals generated by the primary indicators by providing additional information about the strength and direction of the trend.
Some examples of confirmation indicators that may be used in the NNFX system include the Bollinger Bands, the MACD (Moving Average Convergence Divergence), and the MACD Oscillator. These indicators can provide information about the volatility, momentum, and trend strength of the market, and can be used to confirm the signals generated by the primary indicators.
In the NNFX system, confirmation indicators are used in combination with primary indicators and other filters to create a trading system that is robust and reliable. By using multiple indicators to confirm trading signals, the system aims to reduce the risk of false signals and improve the overall profitability of the trades.
What is a Continuation indicator?
In the NNFX (No Nonsense Forex) trading system, a continuation indicator is a technical indicator that is used to confirm a current trend and predict that the trend is likely to continue in the same direction. A continuation indicator is typically used in conjunction with other indicators in the system, such as a baseline indicator, to provide a comprehensive trading strategy.
What is a Volatility/Volume indicator?
Volume indicators, such as the On Balance Volume (OBV), the Chaikin Money Flow (CMF), or the Volume Price Trend (VPT), are used to measure the amount of buying and selling activity in a market. They are based on the trading volume of the market, and can provide information about the strength of the trend. In the NNFX system, volume indicators are used to confirm trading signals generated by the Moving Average and the Relative Strength Index. Volatility indicators include Average Direction Index, Waddah Attar, and Volatility Ratio. In the NNFX trading system, volatility is a proxy for volume and vice versa.
By using volume indicators as confirmation tools, the NNFX trading system aims to reduce the risk of false signals and improve the overall profitability of trades. These indicators can provide additional information about the market that is not captured by the primary indicators, and can help traders to make more informed trading decisions. In addition, volume indicators can be used to identify potential changes in market trends and to confirm the strength of price movements.
What is an Exit indicator?
The exit indicator is used in conjunction with other indicators in the system, such as the Moving Average (MA), the Relative Strength Index (RSI), and the Average True Range (ATR), to provide a comprehensive trading strategy.
The exit indicator in the NNFX system can be any technical indicator that is deemed effective at identifying optimal exit points. Examples of exit indicators that are commonly used include the Parabolic SAR, the Average Directional Index (ADX), and the Chandelier Exit.
The purpose of the exit indicator is to identify when a trend is likely to reverse or when the market conditions have changed, signaling the need to exit a trade. By using an exit indicator, traders can manage their risk and prevent significant losses.
In the NNFX system, the exit indicator is used in conjunction with a stop loss and a take profit order to maximize profits and minimize losses. The stop loss order is used to limit the amount of loss that can be incurred if the trade goes against the trader, while the take profit order is used to lock in profits when the trade is moving in the trader's favor.
Overall, the use of an exit indicator in the NNFX trading system is an important component of a comprehensive trading strategy. It allows traders to manage their risk effectively and improve the profitability of their trades by exiting at the right time.
How does Loxx's GKD (Giga Kaleidoscope Modularized Trading System) implement the NNFX algorithm outlined above?
Loxx's GKD v1.0 system has five types of modules (indicators/strategies). These modules are:
1. GKD-BT - Backtesting module (Volatility, Number 1 in the NNFX algorithm)
2. GKD-B - Baseline module (Baseline and Volatility/Volume, Numbers 1 and 2 in the NNFX algorithm)
3. GKD-C - Confirmation 1/2 and Continuation module (Confirmation 1/2 and Continuation, Numbers 3, 4, and 5 in the NNFX algorithm)
4. GKD-V - Volatility/Volume module (Confirmation 1/2, Number 6 in the NNFX algorithm)
5. GKD-E - Exit module (Exit, Number 7 in the NNFX algorithm)
(additional module types will added in future releases)
Each module interacts with every module by passing data between modules. Data is passed between each module as described below:
GKD-B => GKD-V => GKD-C(1) => GKD-C(2) => GKD-C(Continuation) => GKD-E => GKD-BT
That is, the Baseline indicator passes its data to Volatility/Volume. The Volatility/Volume indicator passes its values to the Confirmation 1 indicator. The Confirmation 1 indicator passes its values to the Confirmation 2 indicator. The Confirmation 2 indicator passes its values to the Continuation indicator. The Continuation indicator passes its values to the Exit indicator, and finally, the Exit indicator passes its values to the Backtest strategy.
This chaining of indicators requires that each module conform to Loxx's GKD protocol, therefore allowing for the testing of every possible combination of technical indicators that make up the six components of the NNFX algorithm.
What does the application of the GKD trading system look like?
Example trading system:
Backtest: Strategy with 1-3 take profits, trailing stop loss, multiple types of PnL volatility, and 2 backtesting styles
Baseline: Hull Moving Average
Volatility/Volume: Hurst Exponent
Confirmation 1: Volatility-Adaptive Rapid RSI T3 as shown on the chart above
Confirmation 2: Williams Percent Range
Continuation: Volatility-Adaptive Rapid RSI T3
Exit: Rex Oscillator
Each GKD indicator is denoted with a module identifier of either: GKD-BT, GKD-B, GKD-C, GKD-V, or GKD-E. This allows traders to understand to which module each indicator belongs and where each indicator fits into the GKD protocol chain.

█ GKD-C Adaptive-Lookback Variety RSI
What is the Adaptive Lookback Period?
The adaptive lookback period is a technique used in technical analysis to adjust the period of an indicator based on changes in market conditions. This technique is particularly useful in volatile or rapidly changing markets where a fixed period may not be optimal for detecting trends or signals.
The concept of the adaptive lookback period is relatively simple. By adjusting the lookback period based on changes in market conditions, traders can more accurately identify trends and signals. This can help traders to enter and exit trades at the right time and improve the profitability of their trading strategies.
The adaptive lookback period works by identifying potential swing points in the market. Once these points are identified, the lookback period is calculated based on the number of swings and a speed parameter. The swing count parameter determines the number of swings that must occur before the lookback period is adjusted. The speed parameter controls the rate at which the lookback period is adjusted, with higher values indicating a more rapid adjustment.
The adaptive lookback period can be applied to a wide range of technical indicators, including moving averages, oscillators, and trendlines. By adjusting the period of these indicators based on changes in market conditions, traders can reduce the impact of noise and false signals, leading to more profitable trades.
In summary, the adaptive lookback period is a powerful technique for traders and analysts looking to optimize their technical indicators. By adjusting the period based on changes in market conditions, traders can more accurately identify trends and signals, leading to more profitable trades. While there are various ways to implement the adaptive lookback period, the basic concept remains the same, and traders can adapt and customize the technique to suit their individual needs and trading styles.

10. Jurik RSX
Regular RSI
The Relative Strength Index (RSI) is a widely used technical indicator in the field of financial market analysis. Developed by J. Welles Wilder Jr. in 1978, the RSI is a momentum oscillator that measures the speed and change of price movements. It helps traders identify potential trend reversals, overbought, and oversold conditions in a market.
The RSI is calculated based on the average gains and losses of an asset over a specified period, typically 14 days. The formula for calculating the RSI is as follows:
RSI = 100 - (100 / (1 + RS))
Where:
RS (Relative Strength) = Average gain over the specified period / Average loss over the specified period
The RSI ranges from 0 to 100, with values above 70 generally considered overbought (potentially indicating that the asset is overvalued and may experience a price decline) and values below 30 considered oversold (potentially indicating that the asset is undervalued and may experience a price increase).
Slow RSI
Slow RSI is a modified version of the Relative Strength Index (RSI) indicator that aims to provide a smoother, more consistent signal than the traditional RSI. The Slow RSI is designed to be less sensitive to sudden price movements, which can cause false signals.
To calculate Slow RSI, we first calculate the up and down values, just like in traditional RSI and Ehlers RSI. The up and down values are calculated by comparing the current price to the previous price, and then adding up the positive and negative differences.
Next, we calculate the Slow RSI value using the formula:
SlowRSI = 100 * up / (up + dn)
where "up" and "dn" are the total positive and negative differences, respectively.
This formula is similar to the one used in traditional RSI, but the dynamic lookback period based on the average of the up and down values is used to smooth out the signal.
Finally, we apply smoothing to the Slow RSI value by taking an exponential moving average (EMA) of the Slow RSI values over a specified period. This EMA helps to reduce the impact of sudden price movements and provide a smoother, more consistent signal over time.
Ehler's Smoothed RSI
Ehlers RSI is a modified version of the Relative Strength Index (RSI) indicator created by John Ehlers, a well-known technical analyst and author. The purpose of Ehlers RSI is to reduce lag and improve the responsiveness of the traditional RSI indicator.
To calculate Ehlers RSI, we first smooth the prices by taking a weighted average of the current price and the two previous prices. This smoothing helps to reduce noise in the data and produce a more accurate signal.
Next, we calculate the up and down values differently than in traditional RSI. In traditional RSI, the up and down values are based on the difference between the current price and the previous price. In Ehlers RSI, the up and down values are based on the difference between the current price and the price two bars ago. This approach helps to reduce lag and produce a more responsive indicator.
Finally, we calculate Ehlers RSI using the formula:
EhlersRSI = 50 * (up - down) / (up + down) + 50
The result is a more timely signal that can help traders identify potential trends and reversals in the market. However, as with any technical indicator, Ehlers RSI should be used in conjunction with other analysis tools and should not be relied on as the sole basis for trading decisions.
Cutler's RSI
Cutler's RSI (Relative Strength Index) is a variation of the traditional RSI, a popular technical analysis indicator used to measure the speed and change of price movements. The main difference between Cutler's RSI and the traditional RSI is the calculation method used to smooth the data. While the traditional RSI uses an exponential moving average (EMA) to smooth the data, Cutler's RSI uses a simple moving average (SMA).
Here's the formula for Cutler's RSI:
1. Calculate the price change: Price Change = Current Price - Previous Price
2. Calculate the average gain and average loss over a specified period (usually 14 days):
If Price Change > 0, add it to the total gains.
If Price Change < 0, add the absolute value to the total losses.
3. Calculate the average gain and average loss by dividing the totals by the specified period: Average Gain = Total Gains / Period, Average Loss = Total Losses / Period
4. Calculate the Relative Strength (RS): RS = Average Gain / Average Loss
5. Calculate Cutler's RSI: Cutler's RSI = 100 - (100 / (1 + RS))
Cutler's RSI is not necessarily better than the regular RSI; it's just a different variation of the traditional RSI that uses a simple moving average (SMA) instead of an exponential moving average (EMA) quantifiedstrategies.com. The main advantage of Cutler's RSI is that it is not data length dependent, meaning it returns consistent results regardless of the length of the period, or the starting point within a data file quantifiedstrategies.com.
However, it's worth noting that Cutler's RSI does not necessarily outperform the traditional RSI. In fact, backtests reveal that Cutler's RSI is no improvement compared to Wilder's RSI quantifiedstrategies.com. Additionally, using an SMA instead of an EMA in Cutler's RSI may result in the loss of the "believed" advantage of weighting the most recent price action aaii.com.
Both Cutler's RSI and the traditional RSI can be used to identify overbought/oversold levels, support and resistance, spot divergences for possible reversals, and confirm the signals from other indicators investopedia.com. Ultimately, the choice between Cutler's RSI and the traditional RSI depends on personal preference and the specific trading strategy being employed.
Rapid RSI
Rapid RSI is a technical analysis indicator that is a modified version of the Relative Strength Index (RSI). It was developed by Andrew Cardwell and was first introduced in the October 2006 issue of Technical Analysis of Stocks & Commodities magazine.
The Rapid RSI improves upon the regular RSI by modifying the way the average gains and losses are calculated. Here's a general breakdown of the Rapid RSI calculation:
1. Calculate the upward change (when the price has increased) and the downward change (when the price has decreased) for each period.
2. Calculate the simple moving average (SMA) of the upward changes and the SMA of the downward changes over the specified period.
3. Divide the SMA of the upward changes by the SMA of the downward changes to get the relative strength (RS).
4. Calculate the Rapid RSI by transforming the relative strength (RS) into a value ranging from 0 to 100.
By using the simple moving average (SMA) instead of the slow exponential moving average (RMA) as in the regular RSI, the Rapid RSI tends to be more responsive to recent price changes. This can help traders identify overbought and oversold conditions more quickly, potentially leading to earlier entry and exit points. However, it is important to note that a faster indicator may also produce more false signals.
Harris' RSI
Harris RSI (Relative Strength Index) is a technical indicator used in financial analysis to measure the strength or weakness of a security over time. It was developed by Larry Harris in 1986 as an alternative to the traditional RSI, which measures the price change of a security over a given period.
The Harris RSI uses a slightly different formula from the traditional RSI, but it is based on the same principles. It calculates the ratio of the average gain to the average loss over a specified period, typically 14 days. The result is then plotted on a scale of 0 to 100, with high values indicating overbought conditions and low values indicating oversold conditions.
The Harris RSI is believed to be more responsive to short-term price movements than the traditional RSI, making it useful for traders who are looking for quick trading opportunities. However, like any technical indicator, it should be used in conjunction with other forms of analysis to make informed trading decisions.
The calculation of the Harris RSI involves several steps:
1. Calculate the price change over the specified period (usually 14 days) using the following formula:
Price Change = Close Price - Prior Close Price
2. Calculate the average gain and average loss over the same period, using separate formulas for each:
Average Gain = (Sum of Gains over the Period) / Period
Average Loss = (Sum of Losses over the Period) / Period
Gains are calculated as the sum of all positive price changes over the period, while losses are calculated as the sum of all negative price changes over the period.
3. Calculate the Relative Strength (RS) as the ratio of the Average Gain to the Average Loss:
RS = Average Gain / Average Loss
4. Calculate the Harris RSI using the following formula:
Harris RSI = 100 - (100 / (1 + RS))
The resulting Harris RSI value is a number between 0 and 100, which is plotted on a chart to identify overbought or oversold conditions in the security. A value above 70 is generally considered overbought, while a value below 30 is generally considered oversold.
DEMA RSI
DEMA RSI is a variation of the Relative Strength Index (RSI) technical indicator that incorporates the Double Exponential Moving Average (DEMA) for smoothing. Like the regular RSI, the DEMA RSI is a momentum oscillator used to measure the speed and change of price movements, and it ranges from 0 to 100. Readings below 30 typically indicate oversold conditions, while readings above 70 indicate overbought conditions.
The DEMA RSI aims to improve upon the regular RSI by addressing its limitations, such as lag and false signals. By using the DEMA, a more responsive and faster RSI can be achieved. Here's a general breakdown of the DEMA RSI calculation:
1. Calculate the price change for each period, as well as the absolute value of the change.
2. Apply the DEMA smoothing technique to both the price change and its absolute value, separately. This involves calculating two sets of exponential moving averages and combining them to create a double-weighted moving average with reduced lag.
3. Divide the smoothed price change by the smoothed absolute value of the price change.
4. Transform the result into a value ranging from 0 to 100 to obtain the DEMA RSI.
The DEMA RSI is considered an improvement over the regular RSI because it provides faster and more responsive signals. This can help traders identify overbought and oversold conditions more accurately and potentially avoid false signals.
In summary, the main advantages of these RSI variations over the regular RSI are their ability to reduce noise, provide smoother lines, and be more responsive to price changes. This can lead to more accurate signals and fewer false positives in different market conditions.
TEMA RSI
TEMA RSI is a variation of the Relative Strength Index (RSI) technical indicator that incorporates the Triple Exponential Moving Average (TEMA) for smoothing. Like the regular RSI, the TEMA RSI is a momentum oscillator used to measure the speed and change of price movements, and it ranges from 0 to 100. Readings below 30 typically indicate oversold conditions, while readings above 70 indicate overbought conditions.
The TEMA RSI aims to improve upon the regular RSI by addressing its limitations, such as lag and false signals. By using the TEMA, a more responsive and faster RSI can be achieved. Here's a general breakdown of the TEMA RSI calculation:
1. Calculate the price change for each period, as well as the absolute value of the change.
2. Apply the TEMA smoothing technique to both the price change and its absolute value, separately. This involves calculating two sets of exponential moving averages and combining them to create a double-weighted moving average with reduced lag.
3. Divide the smoothed price change by the smoothed absolute value of the price change.
4. Transform the result into a value ranging from 0 to 100 to obtain the TEMA RSI.
The TEMA RSI is considered an improvement over the regular RSI because it provides faster and more responsive signals. This can help traders identify overbought and oversold conditions more accurately and potentially avoid false signals.
T3 RSI
T3 RSI is a variation of the Relative Strength Index (RSI) technical indicator that incorporates the Tilson T3 for smoothing. Like the regular RSI, the T3 RSI is a momentum oscillator used to measure the speed and change of price movements, and it ranges from 0 to 100. Readings below 30 typically indicate oversold conditions, while readings above 70 indicate overbought conditions.
The T3 RSI aims to improve upon the regular RSI by addressing its limitations, such as lag and false signals. By using the T3, a more responsive and faster RSI can be achieved. Here's a general breakdown of the T3 RSI calculation:
1. Calculate the price change for each period, as well as the absolute value of the change.
2. Apply the T3 smoothing technique to both the price change and its absolute value, separately. This involves calculating two sets of exponential moving averages and combining them to create a double-weighted moving average with reduced lag.
3. Divide the smoothed price change by the smoothed absolute value of the price change.
4. Transform the result into a value ranging from 0 to 100 to obtain the T3 RSI.
The T3 RSI is considered an improvement over the regular RSI because it provides faster and more responsive signals. This can help traders identify overbought and oversold conditions more accurately and potentially avoid false signals.
Jurik RSX
The Jurik RSX is a technical indicator developed by Mark Jurik to measure the momentum and strength of price movements in financial markets, such as stocks, commodities, and currencies. It is an advanced version of the traditional Relative Strength Index (RSI), designed to offer smoother and less lagging signals compared to the standard RSI.
The main advantage of the Jurik RSX is that it provides more accurate and timely signals for traders and analysts, thanks to its improved calculation methods that reduce noise and lag in the indicator's output. This enables better decision-making when analyzing market trends and potential trading opportunities.

What are Heiken Ashi "better" candles?
Heiken Ashi "better" candles are a modified version of the standard Heiken Ashi candles, which are a popular charting technique used in technical analysis. Heiken Ashi candles help traders identify trends and potential reversal points by smoothing out price data and reducing market noise. The "better formula" was proposed by Sebastian Schmidt in an article published by BNP Paribas in Warrants & Zertifikate, a German magazine, in August 2004. The aim of this formula is to further improve the smoothing of the Heiken Ashi chart and enhance its effectiveness in identifying trends and reversals.
Standard Heiken Ashi candles are calculated using the following formulas:
Heiken Ashi Close = (Open + High + Low + Close) / 4
Heiken Ashi Open = (Previous Heiken Ashi Open + Previous Heiken Ashi Close) / 2
Heiken Ashi High = Max (High, Heiken Ashi Open, Heiken Ashi Close)
Heiken Ashi Low = Min (Low, Heiken Ashi Open, Heiken Ashi Close)
The "better formula" modifies the standard Heiken Ashi calculation by incorporating additional smoothing, which can help reduce noise and make it easier to identify trends and reversals. The modified formulas for Heiken Ashi "better" candles are as follows:
Better Heiken Ashi Close = (Open + High + Low + Close) / 4
Better Heiken Ashi Open = (Previous Better Heiken Ashi Open + Previous Better Heiken Ashi Close) / 2
Better Heiken Ashi High = Max (High, Better Heiken Ashi Open, Better Heiken Ashi Close)
Better Heiken Ashi Low = Min (Low, Better Heiken Ashi Open, Better Heiken Ashi Close)
Smoothing Factor = 2 / (N + 1), where N is the chosen period for smoothing
Smoothed Better Heiken Ashi Open = (Better Heiken Ashi Open * Smoothing Factor) + (Previous Smoothed Better Heiken Ashi Open * (1 - Smoothing Factor))
Smoothed Better Heiken Ashi Close = (Better Heiken Ashi Close * Smoothing Factor) + (Previous Smoothed Better Heiken Ashi Close * (1 - Smoothing Factor))
The smoothed Better Heiken Ashi Open and Close values are then used to calculate the smoothed Better Heiken Ashi High and Low values, resulting in "better" candles that provide a clearer representation of the market trend and potential reversal points.
It's important to note that, like any other technical analysis tool, Heiken Ashi "better" candles are not foolproof and should be used in conjunction with other indicators and analysis techniques to make well-informed trading decisions.
Heiken Ashi "better" candles, as mentioned previously, provide a clearer representation of market trends and potential reversal points by reducing noise and smoothing out price data. When using these candles in conjunction with other technical analysis tools and indicators, traders can gain valuable insights into market behavior and make more informed decisions.
To effectively use Heiken Ashi "better" candles in your trading strategy, consider the following tips:
Trend Identification: Heiken Ashi "better" candles can help you identify the prevailing trend in the market. When the majority of the candles are green (or another color, depending on your chart settings) and there are no or few lower wicks, it may indicate a strong uptrend. Conversely, when the majority of the candles are red (or another color) and there are no or few upper wicks, it may signal a strong downtrend.
Trend Reversals: Look for potential trend reversals when a change in the color of the candles occurs, especially when accompanied by longer wicks. For example, if a green candle with a long lower wick is followed by a red candle, it could indicate a bearish reversal. Similarly, a red candle with a long upper wick followed by a green candle may suggest a bullish reversal.
Support and Resistance: You can use Heiken Ashi "better" candles to identify potential support and resistance levels. When the candles are consistently moving in one direction and then suddenly change color with longer wicks, it could indicate the presence of a support or resistance level.
Stop-Loss and Take-Profit: Using Heiken Ashi "better" candles can help you manage risk by determining optimal stop-loss and take-profit levels. For instance, you can place your stop-loss below the low of the most recent green candle in an uptrend or above the high of the most recent red candle in a downtrend.
Confirming Signals: Heiken Ashi "better" candles should be used in conjunction with other technical indicators, such as moving averages, oscillators, or chart patterns, to confirm signals and improve the accuracy of your analysis.
In this implementation, you have the choice of AMA, KAMA, or T3 smoothing. These are as follows:
Kaufman Adaptive Moving Average (KAMA)
The Kaufman Adaptive Moving Average (KAMA) is a type of adaptive moving average used in technical analysis to smooth out price fluctuations and identify trends. The KAMA adjusts its smoothing factor based on the market's volatility, making it more responsive in volatile markets and smoother in calm markets. The KAMA is calculated using three different efficiency ratios that determine the appropriate smoothing factor for the current market conditions. These ratios are based on the noise level of the market, the speed at which the market is moving, and the length of the moving average. The KAMA is a popular choice among traders who prefer to use adaptive indicators to identify trends and potential reversals.
Adaptive Moving Average
The Adaptive Moving Average (AMA) is a type of moving average that adjusts its sensitivity to price movements based on market conditions. It uses a ratio between the current price and the highest and lowest prices over a certain lookback period to determine its level of smoothing. The AMA can help reduce lag and increase responsiveness to changes in trend direction, making it useful for traders who want to follow trends while avoiding false signals. The AMA is calculated by multiplying a smoothing constant with the difference between the current price and the previous AMA value, then adding the result to the previous AMA value.
T3
The T3 moving average is a type of technical indicator used in financial analysis to identify trends in price movements. It is similar to the Exponential Moving Average (EMA) and the Double Exponential Moving Average (DEMA), but uses a different smoothing algorithm.
The T3 moving average is calculated using a series of exponential moving averages that are designed to filter out noise and smooth the data. The resulting smoothed data is then weighted with a non-linear function to produce a final output that is more responsive to changes in trend direction.
The T3 moving average can be customized by adjusting the length of the moving average, as well as the weighting function used to smooth the data. It is commonly used in conjunction with other technical indicators as part of a larger trading strategy.
█ Giga Kaleidoscope Modularized Trading System
Core components of an NNFX algorithmic trading strategy
The NNFX algorithm is built on the principles of trend, momentum, and volatility. There are six core components in the NNFX trading algorithm:
1. Volatility - price volatility; e.g., Average True Range, True Range Double, Close-to-Close, etc.
2. Baseline - a moving average to identify price trend
3. Confirmation 1 - a technical indicator used to identify trends
4. Confirmation 2 - a technical indicator used to identify trends
5. Continuation - a technical indicator used to identify trends
6. Volatility/Volume - a technical indicator used to identify volatility/volume breakouts/breakdown
7. Exit - a technical indicator used to determine when a trend is exhausted
What is Volatility in the NNFX trading system?
In the NNFX (No Nonsense Forex) trading system, ATR (Average True Range) is typically used to measure the volatility of an asset. It is used as a part of the system to help determine the appropriate stop loss and take profit levels for a trade. ATR is calculated by taking the average of the true range values over a specified period.
True range is calculated as the maximum of the following values:
-Current high minus the current low
-Absolute value of the current high minus the previous close
-Absolute value of the current low minus the previous close
ATR is a dynamic indicator that changes with changes in volatility. As volatility increases, the value of ATR increases, and as volatility decreases, the value of ATR decreases. By using ATR in NNFX system, traders can adjust their stop loss and take profit levels according to the volatility of the asset being traded. This helps to ensure that the trade is given enough room to move, while also minimizing potential losses.
Other types of volatility include True Range Double (TRD), Close-to-Close, and Garman-Klass
What is a Baseline indicator?
The baseline is essentially a moving average, and is used to determine the overall direction of the market.
The baseline in the NNFX system is used to filter out trades that are not in line with the long-term trend of the market. The baseline is plotted on the chart along with other indicators, such as the Moving Average (MA), the Relative Strength Index (RSI), and the Average True Range (ATR).
Trades are only taken when the price is in the same direction as the baseline. For example, if the baseline is sloping upwards, only long trades are taken, and if the baseline is sloping downwards, only short trades are taken. This approach helps to ensure that trades are in line with the overall trend of the market, and reduces the risk of entering trades that are likely to fail.
By using a baseline in the NNFX system, traders can have a clear reference point for determining the overall trend of the market, and can make more informed trading decisions. The baseline helps to filter out noise and false signals, and ensures that trades are taken in the direction of the long-term trend.
What is a Confirmation indicator?
Confirmation indicators are technical indicators that are used to confirm the signals generated by primary indicators. Primary indicators are the core indicators used in the NNFX system, such as the Average True Range (ATR), the Moving Average (MA), and the Relative Strength Index (RSI).
The purpose of the confirmation indicators is to reduce false signals and improve the accuracy of the trading system. They are designed to confirm the signals generated by the primary indicators by providing additional information about the strength and direction of the trend.
Some examples of confirmation indicators that may be used in the NNFX system include the Bollinger Bands, the MACD (Moving Average Convergence Divergence), and the MACD Oscillator. These indicators can provide information about the volatility, momentum, and trend strength of the market, and can be used to confirm the signals generated by the primary indicators.
In the NNFX system, confirmation indicators are used in combination with primary indicators and other filters to create a trading system that is robust and reliable. By using multiple indicators to confirm trading signals, the system aims to reduce the risk of false signals and improve the overall profitability of the trades.
What is a Continuation indicator?
In the NNFX (No Nonsense Forex) trading system, a continuation indicator is a technical indicator that is used to confirm a current trend and predict that the trend is likely to continue in the same direction. A continuation indicator is typically used in conjunction with other indicators in the system, such as a baseline indicator, to provide a comprehensive trading strategy.
What is a Volatility/Volume indicator?
Volume indicators, such as the On Balance Volume (OBV), the Chaikin Money Flow (CMF), or the Volume Price Trend (VPT), are used to measure the amount of buying and selling activity in a market. They are based on the trading volume of the market, and can provide information about the strength of the trend. In the NNFX system, volume indicators are used to confirm trading signals generated by the Moving Average and the Relative Strength Index. Volatility indicators include Average Direction Index, Waddah Attar, and Volatility Ratio. In the NNFX trading system, volatility is a proxy for volume and vice versa.
By using volume indicators as confirmation tools, the NNFX trading system aims to reduce the risk of false signals and improve the overall profitability of trades. These indicators can provide additional information about the market that is not captured by the primary indicators, and can help traders to make more informed trading decisions. In addition, volume indicators can be used to identify potential changes in market trends and to confirm the strength of price movements.
What is an Exit indicator?
The exit indicator is used in conjunction with other indicators in the system, such as the Moving Average (MA), the Relative Strength Index (RSI), and the Average True Range (ATR), to provide a comprehensive trading strategy.
The exit indicator in the NNFX system can be any technical indicator that is deemed effective at identifying optimal exit points. Examples of exit indicators that are commonly used include the Parabolic SAR, the Average Directional Index (ADX), and the Chandelier Exit.
The purpose of the exit indicator is to identify when a trend is likely to reverse or when the market conditions have changed, signaling the need to exit a trade. By using an exit indicator, traders can manage their risk and prevent significant losses.
In the NNFX system, the exit indicator is used in conjunction with a stop loss and a take profit order to maximize profits and minimize losses. The stop loss order is used to limit the amount of loss that can be incurred if the trade goes against the trader, while the take profit order is used to lock in profits when the trade is moving in the trader's favor.
Overall, the use of an exit indicator in the NNFX trading system is an important component of a comprehensive trading strategy. It allows traders to manage their risk effectively and improve the profitability of their trades by exiting at the right time.
How does Loxx's GKD (Giga Kaleidoscope Modularized Trading System) implement the NNFX algorithm outlined above?
Loxx's GKD v1.0 system has five types of modules (indicators/strategies). These modules are:
1. GKD-BT - Backtesting module (Volatility, Number 1 in the NNFX algorithm)
2. GKD-B - Baseline module (Baseline and Volatility/Volume, Numbers 1 and 2 in the NNFX algorithm)
3. GKD-C - Confirmation 1/2 and Continuation module (Confirmation 1/2 and Continuation, Numbers 3, 4, and 5 in the NNFX algorithm)
4. GKD-V - Volatility/Volume module (Confirmation 1/2, Number 6 in the NNFX algorithm)
5. GKD-E - Exit module (Exit, Number 7 in the NNFX algorithm)
(additional module types will added in future releases)
Each module interacts with every module by passing data between modules. Data is passed between each module as described below:
GKD-B => GKD-V => GKD-C(1) => GKD-C(2) => GKD-C(Continuation) => GKD-E => GKD-BT
That is, the Baseline indicator passes its data to Volatility/Volume. The Volatility/Volume indicator passes its values to the Confirmation 1 indicator. The Confirmation 1 indicator passes its values to the Confirmation 2 indicator. The Confirmation 2 indicator passes its values to the Continuation indicator. The Continuation indicator passes its values to the Exit indicator, and finally, the Exit indicator passes its values to the Backtest strategy.
This chaining of indicators requires that each module conform to Loxx's GKD protocol, therefore allowing for the testing of every possible combination of technical indicators that make up the six components of the NNFX algorithm.
What does the application of the GKD trading system look like?
Example trading system:
Backtest: Strategy with 1-3 take profits, trailing stop loss, multiple types of PnL volatility, and 2 backtesting styles
Baseline: Hull Moving Average
Volatility/Volume: Hurst Exponent
Confirmation 1: Adaptive-Lookback Variety RSI as shown on the chart above
Confirmation 2: Williams Percent Range
Continuation: Adaptive-Lookback Variety RSI
Exit: Rex Oscillator
Each GKD indicator is denoted with a module identifier of either: GKD-BT, GKD-B, GKD-C, GKD-V, or GKD-E. This allows traders to understand to which module each indicator belongs and where each indicator fits into the GKD protocol chain.

RBX - RSI and StoRSIThis trading indicator on TradingView combines the Relative Strength Index (RSI) and Stochastic RSI, with a Donchian Channel applied to RSI to detect whether it is making new highs or lows. Additionally, it includes a function to detect a possible reversal candle during oversold/overbought conditions.
The RSI component of the indicator is configurable with inputs for RSI length, moving average type, and length. The Stochastic RSI component is also configurable with inputs for its length, as well as the smoothing parameters K and D.
The Donchian Channel is applied to the RSI component using two separate inputs for its high and low length. This can be used to identify whether RSI is making new highs or lows within a certain time period.
The oversold/overbought component of the indicator uses the Average True Range (ATR) to determine the size of candles, and identifies whether a candle is overextended based on a multiplier input. Users can also choose to use the RSI filter to look for potential reversal candles when the RSI falls below a certain value (oversold) or rises above a certain value (overbought).
The resulting signals are plotted on the chart, including the RSI upper and lower bands, the Stochastic-RSI upper and lower bands, the Stochastic-RSI K and D lines, and the RSI line itself, which is color-coded to indicate its level.
TTP AbsolutnoAbsolutno is a pine script strategy for backtesting DCA bots with a different approach for placing both safety orders and take profit levels.
Motivation
Using DCA bots with safety orders most of the time is great during bull markets but in bear markets and strong downtrends it can be really challenging to close your deals only relying on safety orders placed based on percentages: price scale and volume scale.
In the past we introduced a script called "add funds simulator" that people used for sending alerts to bots to add funds and help closing deals in red.
We want to cross the use of TA with the safety orders with the intention of getting better results than statically placed safety orders.
What does Absolutno do?
Absolutno uses TA for safety orders, both for opening new safety orders and also to define how low they should be placed based on the volatility of the asset.
Main features
- ATR SO mode: Safety orders can be placed dynamically based on the general volatility of the asset plus the current volatility.
- TA based SO entries: Safety orders are only placed when the deal start condition is true not only when the price pulls back below the next safety order price level. This acts like a hybrid between "add funds simulator" and a traditional DCA bot. Once a safety order is filled, the next SO level gets active waiting for a DSC to trigger below the new entry level.
- Take profit scale: Traditional DCA bots offer a percentage or TA based exit conditions. Absolutno offers a new mode when you can decide to increase or decrease the TP level with each SO getting filled. For example a value of 1.1 TP scale will cause that each SO getting filled makes the TP% grow 10%. A value of 0.9% will reduce each SO by 10%. The lower the price goes you can "lower your expectation", or if you are filling bullish you can actually increase it.
External signal
It comes with a built-in deal start condition that uses RSI cross over 30 which is used only for illustration purposes since Absolutno is designed to be used with external signals.
Use any external signal to enter a new deal and for adding new safety orders.
You can also activate external take profit signal.
When external TP is enabled, all TP features from the bot are disabled to only react to what the external signal instructs the bot.
Bot integration and alerts
Three type of alerts will be sent to the bot: open deal, add funds and close deal.
You will need to enter your bot id and email token in the settings.
Since this strategy uses add funds: you must be aware that the alerts sent from this strategy will contain the amount of funds to add and therefore the bot receiving these alerts will respect them EVEN if the bot was defined with different SO sizes.
Please make sure you fully understand this before using this signal.
The base order alerts don't contain funds information so the bot will always use the base order size as defined in its own settings.
EMA bridge and dashboard with color coding.
Summary:
This is a custom moving average indicator script that calculates and plots different Exponential Moving Averages (EMAs) based on user-defined input values. The script also displays MACD and RSI, and provides a table that displays the current trend of the market in a color-coded format.
Explanation:
- The script starts by defining the name of the indicator and the different inputs that the user can customize.
- The inputs include bridge values for three different EMAs (high, close, and low), and four other EMAs (5, 50, 100, and 200).
- The script assigns values to these inputs using the `ta.ema()` function.
- Additionally, the script calculates EMAs for higher timeframes (3m, 5m, 15m, and 30m).
- The script then plots the EMAs on the chart using different colors and line widths.
- The script defines conditions for going long or short based on the crossover of two EMAs.
- It plots triangles above or below bars to indicate the crossover events.
- The script also calculates and displays the RSI and MACD of the asset.
- Finally, the script creates a table that displays the current trend of the market in a color-coded format. The table can be positioned on the top, middle, or bottom of the chart and on the left, center, or right side of the chart.
Parameters:
- i_ema_h: Bridge value for high EMA (default=34)
- i_ema_c: Bridge value for close EMA (default=34)
- i_ema_l: Bridge value for low EMA (default=34)
- i_ema_5: Value for 5-period EMA (default=5)
- i_ema_50: Value for 50-period EMA (default=50)
- i_ema_100: Value for 100-period EMA (default=100)
- i_ema_200: Value for 200-period EMA (default=200)
- i_f_ema: Value for fast EMA used in MACD calculation (default=9)
- i_s_ema: Value for slow EMA used in MACD calculation (default=21)
- fastInput: Value for fast length used in MACD calculation (default=7)
- slowInput: Value for slow length used in MACD calculation (default=14)
- tableYposInput: Vertical position of the table (options: top, middle, bottom; default=middle)
- tableXposInput: Horizontal position of the table (options: left, center, right; default=right)
- bullColorInput: Color of the table cell for a bullish trend (default=green)
- bearColorInput: Color of the table cell for a bearish trend (default=red)
- neutColorInput: Color of the table cell for a neutral trend (default=white)
- neutColorLabelInput: Color of the label for neutral trend in the table (default=fuchsia)
Usage:
To use this script, simply copy and paste it into the Pine Editor on TradingView. You can then customize the input values to your liking or leave them at their default values. Once you have added the script to your chart, you can view the EMAs, MACD, RSI, and trend table on the chart. The trend table provides a quick way to assess the current trend of the market at a glance.
