Multi-Timeframe EMAsMulti Timeframe EMA's
The 'Multi-Timeframe EMA Band Comparison' indicator is a tool designed to analyze trend direction across multiple timeframes using Exponential Moving Averages. it calculates the 50, 100, and 200 period EMAs for fiver user defined timeframes and compares their relationships to provide a visual snapshot of bullish or bearish momentum.
How it Works:
EMA Calculations: For each selected timeframe, the indicator computes the 50, 100, and 200 period EMAs based on the closing price.
Band Comparisons: Three key relationships are evaluated:
50 EMA vs 100 EMA
100 EMA vs 200 EMA
50 EMA vs 200 EMA
Scoring System: Each comparison is assigned a score:
🟢 (Green Circle): The shorter EMA is above the longer EMA, signaling bullish momentum.
🔴 (Red Circle): The shorter EMA is below the longer EMA, signaling bearish momentum.
⚪️ (White Circle): The EMAs are equal or data is unavailable (rare).
Average Score:
An overall average score is calculated across all 15 comparisons ranging from 1 to -1, displayed with two decimal places and color coded.
Customization:
This indicator is fully customizable from the timeframe setting to the color of the table. The only specific part that is not changeable is the EMA bands.

McClellan Oscillator - IRUS Optimized🧠 McClellan Oscillator (IRUS Index)
Type: Market Breadth Indicator
Category: Breadth, Momentum
Purpose: Gauge the internal strength of the IRUS index and anticipate trend reversals
📌 Based on
This indicator is built on the concept of advancing vs. declining issues — the number of stocks rising vs. falling each day within the IRUS index (a custom group of 40 Russian stocks).
It calculates the net advances (advancers minus decliners), then applies two exponential moving averages (EMA):
java
Copy
Edit
McClellan Oscillator = EMA_19(Net Advances) - EMA_39(Net Advances)
Where:
Net Advances = Number of advancing stocks - Number of declining stocks
Calculated from a fixed set of 40 IRUS stocks
🧭 What it shows
Above 0 → more stocks are rising: market is internally strong.
Below 0 → more stocks are falling: underlying weakness.
Rising from below -100 → oversold breadth, possible bullish reversal.
Falling from above +100 → overbought breadth, possible correction.
🎯 How to use it
1. Buy/Sell Signals
Buy: Oscillator drops below -100 and turns up → oversold, potential rally.
Sell: Oscillator rises above +100 and turns down → overbought, risk of pullback.
2. Trend Strength Confirmation
Sustained above 0 → confirms bullish trend.
Crosses below 0 → early warning of weakening market breadth.
3. Divergences with IRUS Price
IRUS rises, but Oscillator falls → narrowing leadership, bearish divergence.
IRUS falls, but Oscillator rises → improving breadth, bullish divergence.
⚠️ Notes
The oscillator measures participation, not price.
Works best with daily timeframe.
Does not account for volume or magnitude of price moves.
Use with price action or other indicators for confirmation.
⚙️ Custom Implementation
This version is specifically adapted for the IRUS index, using a fixed list of 40 component stocks.
Optimized for Pine Script v6 and complies with TradingView's request limits (max 40).
VIX Implied MovesKey Features:
Three Timeframe Bands:
Daily: Blue bands showing ±1σ expected move
Weekly: Green bands showing ±1σ expected move
30-Day: Red bands showing ±1σ expected move
Calculation Methodology:
Uses VIX's annualized volatility converted to specific timeframes using square root of time rule
Trading day convention (252 days/year)
Band width = Price × (VIX/100) ÷ √(number of periods)
Visual Features:
Colored semi-transparent backgrounds between bands
Progressive line thickness (thinner for shorter timeframes)
Real-time updates as VIX and ES prices change
Example Calculation (VIX=20, ES=5000):
Daily move = 5000 × (20/100)/√252 ≈ ±63 points
Weekly move = 5000 × (20/100)/√50 ≈ ±141 points
Monthly move = 5000 × (20/100)/√21 ≈ ±218 points
This indicator helps visualize expected price ranges based on current volatility conditions, with wider bands indicating higher market uncertainty. The probabilistic ranges represent 68% confidence levels (1 standard deviation) derived from options pricing.
Volume Profile [ActiveQuants]The Volume Profile indicator visualizes the distribution of trading volume across price levels over a user-defined historical period. It identifies key liquidity zones, including the Point of Control (POC) (price level with the highest volume) and the Value Area (price range containing a specified percentage of total volume). This tool is ideal for traders analyzing support/resistance levels, market sentiment , and potential price reversals .
█ CORE METHODOLOGY
Vertical Price Rows: Divides the price range of the selected lookback period into equal-height rows.
Volume Aggregation: Accumulates bullish/bearish or total volume within each price row.
POC: The row with the highest total volume.
Value Area: Expands from the POC until cumulative volume meets the user-defined threshold (e.g., 70%).
Dynamic Visualization: Rows are plotted as horizontal boxes with widths proportional to their volume.
█ KEY FEATURES
- Customizable Lookback & Resolution
Adjust the historical period ( Lookback ) and granularity ( Number of Rows ) for precise analysis.
- Configurable Profile Width & Horizontal Offset
Control the relative horizontal length of the profile rows, and set the distance from the current bar to the POC row’s anchor.
Important: Do not set the horizontal offset too high. Indicators cannot be plotted more than 500 bars into the future.
- Value Area & POC Highlighting
Set the percentage of total volume required to form the Value Area , ensuring that key volume levels are clearly identified.
Value Area rows are colored distinctly, while the POC is marked with a bold line.
- Flexible Display Options
Show bullish/bearish volume splits or total volume.
Place the profile on the right or left of the chart.
- Gradient Coloring
Rows fade in color intensity based on their relative volume strength .
- Real-Time Adjustments
Modify horizontal offset, profile width, and appearance without reloading.

CVD Oscillator - Short Term SwiftEdgeOverview
The CVD Oscillator - Short Term is a technical indicator designed to assist traders in identifying short-term buying and selling pressure in the market. It calculates the Cumulative Volume Delta (CVD) to measure the net volume difference between buying and selling activity, displayed as an oscillator in a separate panel. This indicator is tailored for short-term trading strategies, such as scalping or day trading, on low timeframes (e.g., 1-minute, 5-minute, or 15-minute charts).
How It Works
Cumulative Volume Delta (CVD): The indicator calculates CVD by assigning volume to buyers (when close > open) or sellers (when close < open). If close = open, the volume is neutral.
Short-Term Focus: The CVD is calculated over a user-defined lookback period (default: 10 candles), making it sensitive to recent market activity.
Normalization: The raw CVD is normalized by dividing it by the average volume (over a short period, default: 5 candles) and scaled to fit within a range of -100 to +100, creating an oscillator-like behavior.
Reset Options: Users can reset the CVD at specific intervals (e.g., every minute, 5 minutes, 15 minutes, or daily) to focus on intraday movements.
Live CVD Value: The raw (unnormalized) CVD value is displayed as a label on each candle for real-time monitoring.
Key Features
Customizable Lookback Period: Adjust the number of recent candles (default: 10) to calculate CVD, allowing for precise short-term analysis.
Flexible Reset Periods: Choose to reset the CVD every 1 minute, 5 minutes, 15 minutes, daily, or never, to suit your trading style.
Normalized Oscillator: The CVD is scaled between -100 and +100, making it easier to visualize short-term momentum.
Live CVD Labels: Displays the raw CVD value on each candle, with options to position the label above or below the oscillator line.
How to Use
Add to Chart: Apply the indicator to your chart on a low timeframe (e.g., 1m, 5m, or 15m) for short-term trading.
Interpret the Oscillator:
Above 0 (Green): Indicates buying pressure dominates.
Below 0 (Red): Indicates selling pressure dominates.
Near 0: Suggests neutral market conditions.
Monitor Live CVD: Use the raw CVD value (shown in the label) to assess the exact net volume difference over the lookback period.
Combine with Other Tools: Use the oscillator alongside price action, support/resistance levels, or other indicators to confirm trading decisions.
Adjust Settings:
CVD Lookback Period: Set to a small value (e.g., 5-20 candles) for scalping.
CVD Reset Period: Choose "1m" or "5m" for intraday resets to focus on very short-term trends.
Volume Average Length: Use a short length (e.g., 3-5) for faster responsiveness.
Scale Factor: Increase (e.g., 2.0-3.0) to amplify small changes in CVD.
Settings
CVD Reset Period: Defines when to reset the CVD calculation ("None", "D" for daily, "15m", "5m", "1m").
CVD Lookback Period (Candles): Number of recent candles to calculate CVD (default: 10).
Volume Average Length: Period for averaging volume to normalize CVD (default: 5).
CVD Scale Factor: Adjusts the sensitivity of the normalized CVD (default: 2.0).
CVD Label Position: Choose to display the raw CVD label above or below the oscillator line.
CVD Label Color: Customize the color of the CVD label (default: white).
Limitations
Not a Standalone Tool: This indicator should be used in conjunction with other technical analysis tools, as it does not guarantee profitable trades.
Volume Dependency: The accuracy of CVD relies on the quality of volume data provided by your broker or exchange.
Short-Term Focus: The indicator is optimized for low timeframes and may produce noise on higher timeframes unless adjusted.
No Predictive Claims: The CVD Oscillator reflects past and current market activity but does not predict future price movements.
Notes
This indicator is designed for informational purposes and does not constitute financial advice. Trading involves risk, and past performance is not indicative of future results.
Test the indicator on a demo account to understand its behavior before using it in live trading.

PLN IndexThe "PLN Index" is a custom indicator developed for TradingView using Pine Script (version 6). It tracks the relative strength of the Polish Zloty (PLN) against a basket of four major currencies: the U.S. Dollar (USD), Swiss Franc (CHF), Euro (EUR), and British Pound (GBP), with each currency contributing an equal weight of 25%. Modeled after the Polish Zloty Index (PLN_I) concept, this indicator offers traders a tool to monitor PLN’s performance across various forex market conditions.
How It Works
The indicator fetches closing prices for the currency pairs USDPLN, CHFPLN, EURPLN, and GBPPLN from TradingView’s data provider (FX_IDC). These pairs represent the amount of PLN needed to purchase one unit of each respective foreign currency. To measure PLN’s strength, the script inverts these rates (e.g., PLNUSD = 1/USDPLN) and calculates the geometric mean of the resulting values using the formula geom_mean = (PLNUSD * PLNCHF * PLNEUR * PLNGBP)^(0.25). The result is then normalized to a base value of 100 at the first bar with complete data, allowing users to observe relative changes in PLN’s value over time. A rising index indicates PLN appreciation, while a falling index suggests depreciation against the basket.
Key Features
Data Inputs: Retrieves closing prices for USDPLN, CHFPLN, EURPLN, and GBPPLN on the selected timeframe.
Calculation: Computes the geometric mean of the inverted exchange rates and normalizes it to 100 based on the first valid bar.
Visualization: Plots the index as a blue line with a linewidth of 2 on a separate chart pane (non-overlay).
Robust Normalization: Normalizes the index using the first bar where all data is available, improving reliability across different timeframes.
Usage
The PLN Index is useful for:
Evaluating the Polish Zloty’s strength or weakness relative to a balanced currency basket.
Identifying long-term trends or short-term shifts in PLN’s value for forex trading or economic analysis.
Supporting technical analysis when paired with additional indicators, such as moving averages or oscillators.
Limitations
Data Dependency: The indicator relies on the availability of historical data for all four currency pairs. Missing data (e.g., on higher timeframes like D1 or W1) may prevent accurate plotting.
Relative Normalization: Unlike the official PLN_I, which uses a fixed historical base date (e.g., January 2, 1984), this indicator normalizes to 100 at the first valid bar, making it a relative rather than absolute measure.
Potential Data Gaps: On higher timeframes, inconsistencies or limited historical data from the FX_IDC provider may result in incomplete index values.
Notes
This version of the PLN Index includes an improved normalization method that sets the base value (100) at the first bar with valid data, enhancing its adaptability compared to earlier iterations. It performs best on timeframes up to H4, where data availability is generally consistent. For higher timeframes, users should verify data completeness to ensure reliable results.
Smart Volume S/R Pro [The_lurker]مؤشر "Smart Volume S/R Pro " هو أداة تحليل فني متقدمة مصممة لمساعدة المتداولين في تحديد مستويات الدعم والمقاومة القوية بناءً على حجم التداول، مع إضافة ميزات تحليلية متطورة مثل تصفية الاتجاه ، مناطق الثقة ، تقييم القوة ، حساب احتمالية الاختراق ، قياس السيولة ، تحديد الأهداف السعرية ، ومستويات فيبوناتشي . وايضا تقديم تسميات (Labels) بجانب كل مستوى دعم ومقاومة، تحتوي على أرقام ومعلومات دقيقة تعكس حالة السوق. هذه التسميات ليست مجرد زينة، بل أدوات تحليلية تساعد المتداولين على اتخاذ قرارات مستنيرة بناءً على بيانات السوقيهدف هذا المؤشر إلى توفير رؤية شاملة للسوق .
الوظائف الرئيسية للمؤشر
1- تحديد مستويات الدعم والمقاومة بناءً على حجم التداول العالي
يقوم المؤشر بتحليل الأشرطة (Bars) السابقة (حتى 300 شريط افتراضيًا) لتحديد النقاط التي شهدت أعلى مستويات حجم التداول.
يرسم خطوط أفقية تمثل مستويات المقاومة (عند أعلى سعر في تلك الأشرطة) والدعم (عند أدنى سعر)، ويمكن للمستخدم اختيار عدد الخطوط المعروضة (من 1 إلى 6).
2- تصفية الاتجاه باستخدام مؤشر ADX
يستخدم المؤشر مؤشر الاتجاه المتوسط (ADX) لتقييم قوة الاتجاه في السوق.
عندما تكون قوة الاتجاه عالية (تتجاوز عتبة محددة، 25 افتراضيًا)، يقلل المؤشر عدد مستويات الدعم والمقاومة المعروضة للتركيز فقط على المستويات الأكثر أهمية.
3- مناطق الثقة الديناميكية
يضيف المؤشر مناطق حول مستويات الدعم والمقاومة بناءً على متوسط المدى الحقيقي (ATR)، مما يساعد المتداولين على تصور النطاقات التي قد يتفاعل فيها السعر مع هذه المستويات.
يمكن تعديل عرض هذه المناطق باستخدام مضاعف ATR.
4- تقييم قوة المستويات
يحسب المؤشر قوة كل مستوى بناءً على حجم التداول، عدد المرات التي تم اختبار المستوى فيها (Touch Count)، وقرب السعر الحالي من المستوى.
يتم عرض درجة القوة (من 0 إلى 100) بجانب كل مستوى إذا تم تفعيل هذه الخاصية.
5- احتمالية الاختراق
يقدّر المؤشر احتمالية اختراق كل مستوى بناءً على الزخم (ROC)، قوة المستوى، والمسافة بين السعر الحالي والمستوى.
يظهر الاحتمال كنسبة مئوية إذا تم تفعيل الخيار، مما يساعد المتداولين على توقع الحركات المحتملة.
6- تحليل السيولة التاريخية
يقيس المؤشر السيولة حول كل مستوى بناءً على حجم التداول في النطاقات القريبة منه.
يمكن عرض قيم السيولة في التسميات أو استخدامها لتعديل عرض الخطوط (الخطوط الأكثر سيولة تظهر أعرض).
7- الأهداف السعرية
عند تفعيل هذه الخاصية، يحسب المؤشر أهداف سعرية للاختراق (Breakout) والارتداد (Reversal) بناءً على الزخم وقوة المستوى وATR.
يمكن عرض هذه الأهداف كنصوص في التسميات أو كخطوط أفقية على الرسم البياني.
8- مستويات فيبوناتشي
يرسم المؤشر مستويات فيبوناتشي (0.0، 0.236، 0.382، 0.5، 0.618، 0.786، 1.0) بناءً على أعلى وأدنى سعر في فترة النظرة الخلفية.
يمكن للمستخدم اختيار أي من هذه المستويات لعرضها أو إخفائها.
9- تنبيه شامل للاختراق
يوفر المؤشر تنبيهًا واحدًا يشمل جميع المستويات، حيث يُطلق التنبيه عندما يخترق السعر أي مستوى دعم أو مقاومة مع رسالة توضح نوع الاختراق والمستوى المخترق.
كيفية عمل المؤشر
الخطوة الأولى: يحدد المؤشر الأشرطة ذات الحجم العالي خلال فترة النظرة الخلفية المحددة (Lookback Period).
الخطوة الثانية: يرسم مستويات الدعم والمقاومة بناءً على أعلى وأدنى الأسعار في تلك الأشرطة، مع مراعاة عدد الخطوط المختارة من المستخدم.
الخطوة الثالثة: يطبق مرشح الاتجاه (إذا كان مفعلاً) لتقليل عدد المستويات في حالة الاتجاه القوي.
الخطوة الرابعة: يضيف التحليلات الإضافية مثل القوة، السيولة، احتمالية الاختراق، والأهداف السعرية، ويرسم مناطق الثقة ومستويات فيبوناتشي حسب الإعدادات.
الخطوة الخامسة: يراقب السعر ويطلق تنبيهًا عند الاختراق.
الإعدادات القابلة للتخصيص
1- فترة النظرة الخلفية (Lookback Period): عدد الأشرطة التي يتم تحليلها (افتراضيًا 300).
2- عدد الخطوط (Number of Lines): من 1 إلى 6 مستويات دعم ومقاومة.
3- الألوان والأنماط: يمكن تغيير ألوان الخطوط وأنماطها (ممتلئة، متقطعة، منقطة).
4- التسميات: تفعيل/تعطيل التسميات، وحجمها، وموقعها، ولون النص.
5- مرشح الاتجاه: تفعيل/تعطيل ADX، وتعديل طوله وعتبته.
6- مناطق الثقة: تفعيل/تعطيل، وتعديل طول ATR ومضاعفه.
7- القوة واحتمالية الاختراق: تفعيل/تعطيل العرض، وتعديل طول ROC.
8- السيولة: تفعيل/تعطيل تأثير السيولة على عرض الخطوط وقيمها في التسميات.
9- الأهداف السعرية: تفعيل/تعطيل الأهداف وعرضها كخطوط.
10- فيبوناتشي: اختيار المستويات المعروضة ولون الخطوط.
فوائد المؤشر

==================================================================================تسميات (Labels) بجانب كل مستوى دعم ومقاومة، تحتوي على أرقام ومعلومات دقيقة تعكس حالة السوق. هذه التسميات ليست مجرد زينة، بل أدوات تحليلية تساعد المتداولين على اتخاذ قرارات مستنيرة بناءً على بيانات السوق. في هذا الشرح، سنستعرض كل رقم أو قيمة تظهر في التسميات ومعناها العملي.
مكونات التسميات
التسميات تظهر بجانب كل مستوى دعم (Support) ومقاومة (Resistance) وتبدأ بحرف "S" للدعم أو "R" للمقاومة، تليها مجموعة من الأرقام والقيم التي يمكن تفعيلها أو تعطيلها حسب إعدادات المستخدم. إليك تفصيل كل عنصر:
1- عدد اللمسات (Touch Count)
الرمز: يظهر مباشرة بعد "S" أو "R" (مثال: "R: 5" أو "S: 3").
المعنى: يشير إلى عدد المرات التي اختبر فيها السعر هذا المستوى دون اختراقه.
الفائدة: كلما زاد عدد اللمسات، كلما كان المستوى أقوى وأكثر أهمية. على سبيل المثال، إذا كان "R: 5"، فهذا يعني أن السعر ارتد من هذا المستوى 5 مرات، مما يجعله مقاومة قوية محتملة.
2- قوة المستوى (Strength Rating)
الرمز: يظهر بين قوسين مربعين (مثال: " ").
المعنى: قيمة من 0 إلى 100 تعكس قوة المستوى بناءً على عوامل مثل حجم التداول، عدد اللمسات، وقرب السعر الحالي من المستوى.
الفائدة: القيم العالية (مثل 75 أو أكثر) تشير إلى مستوى قوي يصعب اختراقه، بينما القيم المنخفضة (مثل 30 أو أقل) تدل على ضعف المستوى وسهولة اختراقه. يمكن للمتداول استخدام هذا لتحديد المستويات الأكثر موثوقية.
3- احتمالية الاختراق (Breakout Probability)
الرمز: يبدأ بحرف "B" متبوعًا بنسبة مئوية (مثال: "B: 60%").
المعنى: نسبة من 0% إلى 100% تُظهر احتمالية اختراق السعر للمستوى بناءً على الزخم الحالي، قوة المستوى، والمسافة بين السعر والمستوى.
الفائدة: نسبة مرتفعة (مثل 60% أو أكثر) تعني أن السعر قد يخترق المستوى قريبًا، بينما النسب المنخفضة (مثل 20%) تشير إلى احتمال ارتداد السعر. هذا مفيد لتوقع الحركة التالية.
4- قيمة السيولة (Liquidity Value)
الرمز: يبدأ بحرف "L" متبوعًا برقم (مثال: "L: 1200").
المعنى: يمثل متوسط حجم التداول في النطاق القريب من المستوى، مما يعكس السيولة التاريخية حوله.
الفائدة: القيم العالية تدل على وجود سيولة كبيرة، مما يعني أن السعر قد يتفاعل بقوة مع هذا المستوى (إما بالارتداد أو الاختراق). القيم المنخفضة تشير إلى سيولة ضعيفة، مما قد يجعل المستوى أقل تأثيرًا.
5- الأهداف السعرية (Price Targets)
الرمز: يبدأ بـ "BT" (هدف الاختراق) و"RT" (هدف الارتداد) متبوعين بأرقام (مثال: "BT: 150.50 RT: 148.20").
المعنى:
BT (Breakout Target): السعر المحتمل الذي قد يصل إليه السعر بعد اختراق المستوى.
RT (Reversal Target): السعر المحتمل الذي قد يصل إليه السعر إذا ارتد من المستوى.
الفائدة: تساعد المتداولين في تحديد نقاط الخروج المحتملة بعد الاختراق أو الارتداد، مما يسهل وضع خطة تداول دقيقة.
أمثلة عملية
تسمية مقاومة: "R: 4 B: 25% L: 1500 BT: 155.00 RT: 152.00"
المستوى اختُبر 4 مرات، قوته 80 (قوي جدًا)، احتمالية الاختراق 25% (منخفضة، أي احتمال ارتداد أعلى)، السيولة 1500 (مرتفعة)، هدف الاختراق 155.00، هدف الارتداد 152.00.
الاستنتاج: المستوى قوي ومن المرجح أن يرتد السعر منه، لكن إذا اخترق، فقد يصل إلى 155.00.
تسمية دعم: "S: 2 B: 70% L: 800 BT: 145.00 RT: 147.50"
المستوى اختُبر مرتين، قوته 40 (متوسطة إلى ضعيفة)، احتمالية الاختراق 70% (مرتفعة)، السيولة 800 (متوسطة)، هدف الاختراق 145.00، هدف الارتداد 147.50.
الاستنتاج: المستوى ضعيف ومن المحتمل أن يخترقه السعر ليهبط إلى 145.00.
كيفية الاستفادة من التسميات
تحديد القوة والضعف: استخدم قوة المستوى (Strength) لمعرفة ما إذا كان المستوى موثوقًا للارتداد أو عرضة للاختراق.
توقع الحركة: انظر إلى احتمالية الاختراق (Breakout Probability) لتحديد ما إذا كنت ستنتظر اختراقًا أو ترتدًا.
إدارة المخاطر: استخدم الأهداف السعرية (BT وRT) لتحديد نقاط جني الأرباح أو وقف الخسارة.
تقييم السيولة: ركز على المستويات ذات السيولة العالية لأنها غالبًا تكون نقاط تحول رئيسية في السوق.
تأكيد التحليل: ادمج عدد اللمسات مع القوة والسيولة للحصول على صورة كاملة عن أهمية المستوى.
تخصيص التسميات
يمكن للمستخدم تفعيل أو تعطيل أي من هذه القيم (القوة، الاحتمالية، السيولة، الأهداف) من إعدادات المؤشر.
يمكن أيضًا تغيير حجم التسميات (صغير، عادي، كبير)، موقعها (يمين، يسار، أعلى، أسفل)، ولون النص لتناسب احتياجاتك.
التسميات في هذا المؤشر هي بمثابة لوحة تحكم صغيرة بجانب كل مستوى دعم ومقاومة، تقدم لك معلومات فورية عن قوته، احتمالية اختراقه، سيولته، وأهدافه السعرية. بفهم هذه الأرقام، يمكنك تحسين قراراتك في التداول، سواء كنت تبحث عن نقاط دخول، خروج، أو إدارة مخاطر. إذا كنت تريد أداة تجمع بين البساطة والعمق التحليلي .
تنويه:
المؤشر هو أداة مساعدة فقط ويجب استخدامه مع التحليل الفني والأساسي لتحقيق أفضل النتائج.

The Smart Volume S/R Pro indicator is an advanced technical analysis tool designed to help traders identify strong support and resistance levels based on trading volume, with the addition of advanced analytical features such as trend filtering, confidence zones, strength assessment, breakout probability calculation, liquidity measurement, price target identification, and Fibonacci levels. It also provides labels next to each support and resistance level, containing accurate numbers and information that reflect the market condition. These labels are not just decorations, but analytical tools that help traders make informed decisions based on market data. This indicator aims to provide a comprehensive view of the market.
Main functions of the indicator
1- Identifying support and resistance levels based on high trading volume
The indicator analyzes previous bars (up to 300 bars by default) to identify the points that witnessed the highest levels of trading volume.
It draws horizontal lines representing resistance levels (at the highest price in those bars) and support (at the lowest price), and the user can choose the number of lines displayed (from 1 to 6).
2- Filtering the trend using the ADX indicator
The indicator uses the Average Directional Index (ADX) to assess the strength of a trend in the market.
When the strength of the trend is high (exceeding a specified threshold, 25 by default), the indicator reduces the number of support and resistance levels displayed to focus only on the most important levels.
3- Dynamic Confidence Zones
The indicator adds zones around support and resistance levels based on the Average True Range (ATR), helping traders visualize the ranges in which the price may interact with these levels.
The width of these zones can be adjusted using the ATR multiplier.
4- Assessing the Strength of Levels
The indicator calculates the strength of each level based on trading volume, the number of times the level has been tested (Touch Count), and the proximity of the current price to the level.
A strength score (from 0 to 100) is displayed next to each level if this feature is enabled.
5- Breakout Probability
The indicator estimates the probability of breaking each level based on momentum (ROC), the strength of the level, and the distance between the current price and the level.
The probability is displayed as a percentage if the option is enabled, helping traders anticipate potential moves.
6- Historical Liquidity Analysis
The indicator measures liquidity around each level based on the trading volume in the ranges near it.
The liquidity values can be displayed in the labels or used to adjust the width of the lines (the most liquid lines appear wider).
7- Price Targets
When this feature is enabled, the indicator calculates price targets for breakout and reversal based on momentum, level strength and ATR.
These targets can be displayed as text in the labels or as horizontal lines on the chart.
8- Fibonacci Levels
The indicator plots Fibonacci levels (0.0, 0.236, 0.382, 0.5, 0.618, 0.786, 1.0) based on the highest and lowest price in the lookback period.
The user can choose which of these levels to display or hide.
9- Comprehensive Breakout Alert
The indicator provides a single alert that includes all levels, where the alert is triggered when the price breaks any support or resistance level with a message explaining the type of breakout and the level broken.
How the indicator works
Step 1: The indicator identifies the bars with high volume during the specified Lookback Period.
Step 2: Draws support and resistance levels based on the highest and lowest prices in those bars, taking into account the number of lines selected by the user.

Indicator Benefits
High Accuracy: It relies on trading volume to determine the levels, which makes it more reliable than random levels.
Flexibility: It provides extensive customization options that allow traders to adapt it to their strategies.
Comprehensive Analysis: Combines support and resistance, trend, liquidity, and targets in one tool. Ease of Use: Labels and alerts make it easy to follow the market without complexity.
Labels next to each support and resistance level contain accurate numbers and information that reflect the market situation. These labels are not just decorations, but analytical tools that help traders make informed decisions based on market data. In this explanation, we will review each number or value that appears in the labels and their practical meaning.
Label Components
Labels appear next to each support and resistance level and begin with the letter "S" for support or "R" for resistance, followed by a set of numbers and values that can be enabled or disabled according to the user's settings. Here is a breakdown of each element:
1- Touch Count
Symbol: Appears immediately after "S" or "R" (example: "R: 5" or "S: 3").
Meaning: Indicates the number of times the price has tested this level without breaking it.
Benefit: The more touches, the stronger and more important the level. For example, if it is "R: 5", it means that the price has bounced off this level 5 times, making it a potentially strong resistance.
2- Strength Rating
Symbol: Appears between square brackets (example: " ").
Meaning: A value from 0 to 100 that reflects the strength of the level based on factors such as trading volume, number of touches, and proximity of the current price to the level.
Benefit: High values (such as 75 or more) indicate a strong level that is difficult to break, while low values (such as 30 or less) indicate a weak level that is easy to break. A trader can use this to determine the most reliable levels.
3- Breakout Probability
Symbol: Starts with the letter "B" followed by a percentage (example: "B: 60%").
Meaning: A percentage from 0% to 100% that shows the probability of the price breaking the level based on the current momentum, the strength of the level, and the distance between the price and the level.
Interest: A high percentage (such as 60% or more) means that the price may soon break through the level, while low percentages (such as 20%) indicate that the price may bounce. This is useful for anticipating the next move.
4- Liquidity Value
Symbol: Starts with the letter "L" followed by a number (example: "L: 1200").
Meaning: Represents the average trading volume in the range near the level, reflecting historical liquidity around it.
Interest: High values indicate high liquidity, meaning that the price may react strongly to this level (either by bouncing or breaking through). Low values indicate low liquidity, which may make the level less influential.
5- Price Targets
Symbol: Starts with "BT" (breakout target) and "RT" (rebound target) followed by numbers (example: "BT: 150.50 RT: 148.20").
Meaning:
BT (Breakout Target): The potential price that the price may reach after breaking the level.
RT (Reversal Target): The potential price that the price may reach if it rebounds from the level.
Utility: Helps traders identify potential exit points after a breakout or rebound, making it easier to develop an accurate trading plan.
Working examples
Resistance label: "R: 4 B: 25% L: 1500 BT: 155.00 RT: 152.00"
Level tested 4 times, strength 80 (very strong), probability of breakout 25% (low, i.e. higher probability of rebound), liquidity 1500 (high), breakout target 155.00, rebound target 152.00.
Conclusion: The level is strong and the price is likely to rebound from it, but if it breaks, it may reach 155.00.
Support Label: "S: 2 B: 70% L: 800 BT: 145.00 RT: 147.50"
Level tested twice, Strength 40 (medium to weak), Breakout Probability 70% (high), Liquidity 800 (medium), Breakout Target 145.00, Rebound Target 147.50.
Conclusion: The level is weak and the price is likely to break it to drop to 145.00.
How to use labels
Determine strength and weakness: Use the level's strength to see if the level is reliable for a bounce or vulnerable to a breakout.
Predict the move: Look at the Breakout Probability to determine whether to wait for a breakout or a bounce.
Risk Management: Use price targets (BT and RT) to set take profit or stop loss points.
Liquidity Evaluation: Focus on levels with high liquidity as they are often key turning points in the market.
Analysis Confirmation: Combine the number of touches with strength and liquidity to get a complete picture of the level’s importance.
Customize Labels
The user can enable or disable any of these values (strength, probability, liquidity, targets) from the indicator settings.
The size of the labels (small, normal, large), their position (right, left, top, bottom), and the color of the text can also be changed to suit your needs.
The labels in this indicator act as a small dashboard next to each support and resistance level, providing you with instant information about its strength, probability of breakout, liquidity, and price targets. By understanding these numbers, you can improve your trading decisions, whether you are looking for entry points, exit points, or risk management. If you want a tool that combines simplicity with analytical depth.

Squeeze Momentum Indicator Strategy [LazyBear + PineIndicators]The Squeeze Momentum Indicator Strategy (SQZMOM_LB Strategy) is an automated trading strategy based on the Squeeze Momentum Indicator developed by LazyBear, which itself is a modification of John Carter's "TTM Squeeze" concept from his book Mastering the Trade (Chapter 11). This strategy is designed to identify low-volatility phases in the market, which often precede explosive price movements, and to enter trades in the direction of the prevailing momentum.
Concept & Indicator Breakdown
The strategy employs a combination of Bollinger Bands (BB) and Keltner Channels (KC) to detect market squeezes:
Squeeze Condition:
When Bollinger Bands are inside the Keltner Channels (Black Crosses), volatility is low, signaling a potential upcoming price breakout.
When Bollinger Bands move outside Keltner Channels (Gray Crosses), the squeeze is released, indicating an expansion in volatility.
Momentum Calculation:
A linear regression-based momentum value is used instead of traditional momentum indicators.
The momentum histogram is color-coded to show strength and direction:
Lime/Green: Increasing bullish momentum
Red/Maroon: Increasing bearish momentum
Signal Colors:
Black: Market is in a squeeze (low volatility).
Gray: Squeeze is released, and volatility is expanding.
Blue: No squeeze condition is present.
Strategy Logic
The script uses historical volatility conditions and momentum trends to generate buy/sell signals and manage positions.
1. Entry Conditions
Long Position (Buy)
The squeeze just released (Gray Cross after Black Cross).
The momentum value is increasing and positive.
The momentum is at a local low compared to the past 100 bars.
The price is above the 100-period EMA.
The closing price is higher than the previous close.
Short Position (Sell)
The squeeze just released (Gray Cross after Black Cross).
The momentum value is decreasing and negative.
The momentum is at a local high compared to the past 100 bars.
The price is below the 100-period EMA.
The closing price is lower than the previous close.
2. Exit Conditions
Long Exit:
The momentum value starts decreasing (momentum lower than previous bar).
Short Exit:
The momentum value starts increasing (momentum higher than previous bar).
Position Sizing
Position size is dynamically adjusted based on 8% of strategy equity, divided by the current closing price, ensuring risk-adjusted trade sizes.
How to Use This Strategy
Apply on Suitable Markets:
Best for stocks, indices, and forex pairs with momentum-driven price action.
Works on multiple timeframes but is most effective on higher timeframes (1H, 4H, Daily).
Confirm Entries with Additional Indicators:
The author recommends ADX or WaveTrend to refine entries and avoid false signals.
Risk Management:
Since the strategy dynamically sizes positions, it's advised to use stop-losses or risk-based exits to avoid excessive drawdowns.
Final Thoughts
The Squeeze Momentum Indicator Strategy provides a systematic approach to trading volatility expansions, leveraging the classic TTM Squeeze principles with a unique linear regression-based momentum calculation. Originally inspired by John Carter’s method, LazyBear's version and this strategy offer a refined, adaptable tool for traders looking to capitalize on market momentum shifts.
AO/AC Trading Zones Strategy [Skyrexio] Overview
AO/AC Trading Zones Strategy leverages the combination of Awesome Oscillator (AO), Acceleration/Deceleration Indicator (AC), Williams Fractals, Williams Alligator and Exponential Moving Average (EMA) to obtain the high probability long setups. Moreover, strategy uses multi trades system, adding funds to long position if it considered that current trend has likely became stronger. Combination of AO and AC is used for creating so-called trading zones to create the signals, while Alligator and Fractal are used in conjunction as an approximation of short-term trend to filter them. At the same time EMA (default EMA's period = 100) is used as high probability long-term trend filter to open long trades only if it considers current price action as an uptrend. More information in "Methodology" and "Justification of Methodology" paragraphs. The strategy opens only long trades.
Unique Features
No fixed stop-loss and take profit: Instead of fixed stop-loss level strategy utilizes technical condition obtained by Fractals and Alligator to identify when current uptrend is likely to be over. In some special cases strategy uses AO and AC combination to trail profit (more information in "Methodology" and "Justification of Methodology" paragraphs)
Configurable Trading Periods: Users can tailor the strategy to specific market windows, adapting to different market conditions.
Multilayer trades opening system: strategy uses only 10% of capital in every trade and open up to 5 trades at the same time if script consider current trend as strong one.
Short and long term trend trade filters: strategy uses EMA as high probability long-term trend filter and Alligator and Fractal combination as a short-term one.
Methodology
The strategy opens long trade when the following price met the conditions:
1. Price closed above EMA (by default, period = 100). Crossover is not obligatory.
2. Combination of Alligator and Williams Fractals shall consider current trend as an upward (all details in "Justification of Methodology" paragraph)
3. Both AC and AO shall print two consecutive increasing values. At the price candle close which corresponds to this condition algorithm opens the first long trade with 10% of capital.
4. If combination of Alligator and Williams Fractals shall consider current trend has been changed from up to downtrend, all long trades will be closed, no matter how many trades has been opened.
5. If AO and AC both continue printing the rising values strategy opens the long trade on each candle close with 10% of capital while number of opened trades reaches 5.
6. If AO and AC both has printed 5 rising values in a row algorithm close all trades if candle's low below the low of the 5-th candle with rising AO and AC values in a row.
Script also has additional visuals. If second long trade has been opened simultaneously the Alligator's teeth line is plotted with the green color. Also for every trade in a row from 2 to 5 the label "Buy More" is also plotted just below the teeth line. With every next simultaneously opened trade the green color of the space between teeth and price became less transparent.
Strategy settings
In the inputs window user can setup strategy setting:
EMA Length (by default = 100, period of EMA, used for long-term trend filtering EMA calculation).
User can choose the optimal parameters during backtesting on certain price chart.
Justification of Methodology
Let's explore the key concepts of this strategy and understand how they work together. We'll begin with the simplest: the EMA.
The Exponential Moving Average (EMA) is a type of moving average that assigns greater weight to recent price data, making it more responsive to current market changes compared to the Simple Moving Average (SMA). This tool is widely used in technical analysis to identify trends and generate buy or sell signals. The EMA is calculated as follows:
1.Calculate the Smoothing Multiplier:
Multiplier = 2 / (n + 1), Where n is the number of periods.
2. EMA Calculation
EMA = (Current Price) × Multiplier + (Previous EMA) × (1 − Multiplier)
In this strategy, the EMA acts as a long-term trend filter. For instance, long trades are considered only when the price closes above the EMA (default: 100-period). This increases the likelihood of entering trades aligned with the prevailing trend.
Next, let’s discuss the short-term trend filter, which combines the Williams Alligator and Williams Fractals. Williams Alligator
Developed by Bill Williams, the Alligator is a technical indicator that identifies trends and potential market reversals. It consists of three smoothed moving averages:
Jaw (Blue Line): The slowest of the three, based on a 13-period smoothed moving average shifted 8 bars ahead.
Teeth (Red Line): The medium-speed line, derived from an 8-period smoothed moving average shifted 5 bars forward.
Lips (Green Line): The fastest line, calculated using a 5-period smoothed moving average shifted 3 bars forward.
When the lines diverge and align in order, the "Alligator" is "awake," signaling a strong trend. When the lines overlap or intertwine, the "Alligator" is "asleep," indicating a range-bound or sideways market. This indicator helps traders determine when to enter or avoid trades.
Fractals, another tool by Bill Williams, help identify potential reversal points on a price chart. A fractal forms over at least five consecutive bars, with the middle bar showing either:
Up Fractal: Occurs when the middle bar has a higher high than the two preceding and two following bars, suggesting a potential downward reversal.
Down Fractal: Happens when the middle bar shows a lower low than the surrounding two bars, hinting at a possible upward reversal.
Traders often use fractals alongside other indicators to confirm trends or reversals, enhancing decision-making accuracy.
How do these tools work together in this strategy? Let’s consider an example of an uptrend.
When the price breaks above an up fractal, it signals a potential bullish trend. This occurs because the up fractal represents a shift in market behavior, where a temporary high was formed due to selling pressure. If the price revisits this level and breaks through, it suggests the market sentiment has turned bullish.
The breakout must occur above the Alligator’s teeth line to confirm the trend. A breakout below the teeth is considered invalid, and the downtrend might still persist. Conversely, in a downtrend, the same logic applies with down fractals.
In this strategy if the most recent up fractal breakout occurs above the Alligator's teeth and follows the last down fractal breakout below the teeth, the algorithm identifies an uptrend. Long trades can be opened during this phase if a signal aligns. If the price breaks a down fractal below the teeth line during an uptrend, the strategy assumes the uptrend has ended and closes all open long trades.
By combining the EMA as a long-term trend filter with the Alligator and fractals as short-term filters, this approach increases the likelihood of opening profitable trades while staying aligned with market dynamics.
Now let's talk about the trading zones concept and its signals. To understand this we need to briefly introduce what is AO and AC. The Awesome Oscillator (AO), developed by Bill Williams, is a momentum indicator designed to measure market momentum by contrasting recent price movements with a longer-term historical perspective. It helps traders detect potential trend reversals and assess the strength of ongoing trends.
The formula for AO is as follows:
AO = SMA5(Median Price) − SMA34(Median Price)
where:
Median Price = (High + Low) / 2
SMA5 = 5-period Simple Moving Average of the Median Price
SMA 34 = 34-period Simple Moving Average of the Median Price
The Acceleration/Deceleration (AC) Indicator, introduced by Bill Williams, measures the rate of change in market momentum. It highlights shifts in the driving force of price movements and helps traders spot early signs of trend changes. The AC Indicator is particularly useful for identifying whether the current momentum is accelerating or decelerating, which can indicate potential reversals or continuations. For AC calculation we shall use the AO calculated above is the following formula:
AC = AO − SMA5(AO) , where SMA5(AO)is the 5-period Simple Moving Average of the Awesome Oscillator
When the AC is above the zero line and rising, it suggests accelerating upward momentum.
When the AC is below the zero line and falling, it indicates accelerating downward momentum.
When the AC is below zero line and rising it suggests the decelerating the downtrend momentum. When AC is above the zero line and falling, it suggests the decelerating the uptrend momentum.
Now let's discuss the trading zones concept and how it can create the signal. Zones are created by the combination of AO and AC. We can divide three zone types:
Greed zone: when the AO and AC both are rising
Red zone: when the AO and AC both are decreasing
Gray zone: when one of AO or AC is rising, the other is falling
Gray zone is considered as uncertainty. AC and AO are moving in the opposite direction. Strategy skip such price action to decrease the chance to stuck in the losing trade during potential sideways. Red zone is also not interesting for the algorithm because both indicators consider the trend as bearish, but strategy opens only long trades. It is waiting for the green zone to increase the chance to open trade in the direction of the potential uptrend. When we have 2 candles in a row in the green zone script executes a long trade with 10% of capital.
Two green zone candles in a row is considered by algorithm as a bullish trend, but now so strong, that's the reason why trade is going to be closed when the combination of Alligator and Fractals will consider the the trend change from bullish to bearish. If id did not happens, algorithm starts to count the green zone candles in a row. When we have 5 in a row script change the trade closing condition. Such situation is considered is a high probability strong bull market and all trades will be closed if candle's low will be lower than fifth green zone candle's low. This is used to increase probability to secure the profit. If long trades are initiated, the strategy continues utilizing subsequent signals until the total number of trades reaches a maximum of 5. Each trade uses 10% of capital.
Why we use trading zones signals? If currently strategy algorithm considers the high probability of the short-term uptrend with the Alligator and Fractals combination pointed out above and the long-term trend is also suggested by the EMA filter as bullish. Rising AC and AO values in the direction of the most likely main trend signaling that we have the high probability of the fastest bullish phase on the market. The main idea is to take part in such rapid moves and add trades if this move continues its acceleration according to indicators.

CCI Buy and Sell Signals with 20/30 EMACCI Buy and Sell Signals with EMA and ATR Stop Loss/Take Profit
This indicator is designed to identify buy and sell signals based on a combination of the Commodity Channel Index (CCI) and Exponential Moving Averages (EMA). It also includes an optional ATR-based stop loss and take profit system, which is useful for traders who want to manage their trades with dynamic risk levels.
Features:
CCI Buy and Sell Signals:
Buy Signal: A buy signal is triggered when the CCI crosses up through -100 (from an oversold condition), the 20-period EMA is above the 30-period EMA, and the price is above the 200-period EMA. This suggests that the market is entering an upward trend.
Sell Signal: A sell signal is triggered when the CCI crosses down through +100 (from an overbought condition), the 20-period EMA is below the 30-period EMA, and the price is below the 200-period EMA. This suggests that the market is entering a downward trend.
Exponential Moving Averages (EMA):
The script plots three EMAs:
20-period EMA (Green): Used to identify short-term trends.
30-period EMA (Red): Used to capture medium-term trends.
200-period EMA (Orange): A long-term trend filter, with the price above it generally indicating bullish conditions and below it indicating bearish conditions.
ATR-Based Stop Loss and Take Profit:
Optional Feature: The ATR (Average True Range) indicator can be used to set stop loss and take profit levels based on market volatility.
Stop Loss: Set at a multiple of the ATR below the entry price for long positions and above the entry price for short positions.
Take Profit: Set at a multiple of the ATR above the entry price for long positions and below the entry price for short positions.
Customizable: You can adjust the ATR length, Stop Loss Multiplier, and Take Profit Multiplier through the settings.
Dots: The stop loss and take profit levels are plotted as dots on the chart when the ATR feature is enabled.
Alert Conditions:
Buy Signal Alert: Triggered when a buy signal occurs based on CCI crossing up -100 and other conditions being met.
Sell Signal Alert: Triggered when a sell signal occurs based on CCI crossing down +100 and other conditions being met.
Any Signal Alert: This is a combined alert that triggers for either a buy or sell signal. It helps you stay updated on both types of signals simultaneously.
How to Use:
The indicator will plot buy and sell arrows on the chart, giving clear entry points for trades based on CCI and EMA conditions.
The ATR stop loss and take profit dots (when enabled) provide automatic risk management levels, adjusting dynamically with market volatility.
Traders can customize the ATR settings to fine-tune their stop loss and take profit levels, making this strategy adaptable to different trading styles and market conditions.
MA Crossover with Demand/Supply Zones + Stop Loss/Take ProfitStop Loss and Take Profit Inputs:
Added stopLossPerc and takeProfitPerc as inputs to allow the user to define the stop loss and take profit levels as a percentage of the entry price.
Stop Loss and Take Profit Calculation:
For long positions, the stop loss is calculated as strategy.position_avg_price * (1 - stopLossPerc), and the take profit is calculated as strategy.position_avg_price * (1 + takeProfitPerc).
For short positions, the stop loss is calculated as strategy.position_avg_price * (1 + stopLossPerc), and the take profit is calculated as strategy.position_avg_price * (1 - takeProfitPerc).
Exit Strategy:
Added strategy.exit to define the stop loss and take profit levels for each trade. The from_entry parameter ensures that the exit is tied to the specific entry order.
Flexibility:
The stop loss and take profit levels are dynamic and adjust based on the entry price of the trade.
How It Works:
When a buy signal is generated (MA crossover near a demand zone), the strategy enters a long position and sets a stop loss and take profit level based on the input percentages.
When a sell signal is generated (MA crossunder near a supply zone), the strategy enters a short position and sets a stop loss and take profit level based on the input percentages.
The trade will exit automatically if either the stop loss or take profit level is hit.
Example:
If the entry price for a long position is $100, and the stop loss is set to 1% while the take profit is set to 2%:
Stop loss level =
100
∗
(
1
−
0.01
)
=
100∗(1−0.01)=99
Take profit level =
100
∗
(
1
+
0.02
)
=
100∗(1+0.02)=102
Notes:
You can adjust the stopLossPerc and takeProfitPerc inputs to suit your risk management preferences.
Always backtest the strategy to ensure the stop loss and take profit levels are appropriate for your trading instrument and timeframe.

Adjust Asset for Future Interest (Brazil)Este script foi criado para ajustar o preço de um ativo com base na taxa de juros DI11!, que reflete a expectativa do mercado para os juros futuros. O objetivo é mostrar como o valor do ativo seria influenciado se fosse diretamente ajustado pela variação dessa taxa de juros.
Como funciona?
Preço do Ativo
O script começa capturando o preço de fechamento do ativo que está sendo visualizado no gráfico. Esse é o ponto de partida para o cálculo.
Taxa de Juros DI11!
Em seguida, ele busca os valores diários da taxa DI11! no mercado. Esta taxa é uma referência de juros de curto prazo, usada para ajustes financeiros e projeções econômicas.
Fator de Ajuste
Com a taxa de juros DI11!, o script calcula um fator de ajuste simples:
Fator de Ajuste
=
1
+
DI11
100
Fator de Ajuste=1+
100
DI11
Esse fator traduz a taxa percentual em um multiplicador aplicado ao preço do ativo.
Cálculo do Ativo Ajustado
Multiplica o preço do ativo pelo fator de ajuste para obter o valor ajustado do ativo. Este cálculo mostra como o preço seria se fosse diretamente influenciado pela variação da taxa DI11!.
Exibição no Gráfico
O script plota o preço ajustado do ativo como uma linha azul no gráfico, com maior espessura para facilitar a visualização. O resultado é uma curva que reflete o impacto teórico da taxa de juros DI11! sobre o ativo.
Utilidade
Este indicador é útil para entender como as taxas de juros podem influenciar ativos financeiros de forma hipotética. Ele é especialmente interessante para analistas que desejam avaliar a relação entre o mercado de renda variável e as condições de juros no curto prazo.
This script was created to adjust the price of an asset based on the DI11! interest rate, which reflects the market's expectation for future interest rates. The goal is to show how the asset's value would be influenced if it were directly adjusted by the variation of this interest rate.
How does it work?
Asset Price
The script starts by capturing the closing price of the asset that is being viewed on the chart. This is the starting point for the calculation.
DI11! Interest Rate
The script then searches for the daily values of the DI11! rate in the market. This rate is a short-term interest reference, used for financial adjustments and economic projections.
Adjustment Factor
With the DI11! interest rate, the script calculates a simple adjustment factor:
Adjustment Factor
=
1
+
DI11
100
Adjustment Factor=1+
100
DI11
This factor translates the percentage rate into a multiplier applied to the asset's price.
Adjusted Asset Calculation
Multiplies the asset price by the adjustment factor to obtain the adjusted asset value. This calculation shows how the price would be if it were directly influenced by the variation of the DI11! rate.
Display on the Chart
The script plots the adjusted asset price as a blue line on the chart, with greater thickness for easier visualization. The result is a curve that reflects the theoretical impact of the DI11! interest rate on the asset.
Usefulness
This indicator is useful for understanding how interest rates can hypothetically influence financial assets. It is especially interesting for analysts who want to assess the relationship between the equity market and short-term interest rate conditions.
MultiLayer Acceleration/Deceleration Strategy [Skyrexio]Overview
MultiLayer Acceleration/Deceleration Strategy leverages the combination of Acceleration/Deceleration Indicator(AC), Williams Alligator, Williams Fractals and Exponential Moving Average (EMA) to obtain the high probability long setups. Moreover, strategy uses multi trades system, adding funds to long position if it considered that current trend has likely became stronger. Acceleration/Deceleration Indicator is used for creating signals, while Alligator and Fractal are used in conjunction as an approximation of short-term trend to filter them. At the same time EMA (default EMA's period = 100) is used as high probability long-term trend filter to open long trades only if it considers current price action as an uptrend. More information in "Methodology" and "Justification of Methodology" paragraphs. The strategy opens only long trades.
Unique Features
No fixed stop-loss and take profit: Instead of fixed stop-loss level strategy utilizes technical condition obtained by Fractals and Alligator to identify when current uptrend is likely to be over (more information in "Methodology" and "Justification of Methodology" paragraphs)
Configurable Trading Periods: Users can tailor the strategy to specific market windows, adapting to different market conditions.
Multilayer trades opening system: strategy uses only 10% of capital in every trade and open up to 5 trades at the same time if script consider current trend as strong one.
Short and long term trend trade filters: strategy uses EMA as high probability long-term trend filter and Alligator and Fractal combination as a short-term one.
Methodology
The strategy opens long trade when the following price met the conditions:
1. Price closed above EMA (by default, period = 100). Crossover is not obligatory.
2. Combination of Alligator and Williams Fractals shall consider current trend as an upward (all details in "Justification of Methodology" paragraph)
3. Acceleration/Deceleration shall create one of two types of long signals (all details in "Justification of Methodology" paragraph). Buy stop order is placed one tick above the candle's high of last created long signal.
4. If price reaches the order price, long position is opened with 10% of capital.
5. If currently we have opened position and price creates and hit the order price of another one long signal, another one long position will be added to the previous with another one 10% of capital. Strategy allows to open up to 5 long trades simultaneously.
6. If combination of Alligator and Williams Fractals shall consider current trend has been changed from up to downtrend, all long trades will be closed, no matter how many trades has been opened.
Script also has additional visuals. If second long trade has been opened simultaneously the Alligator's teeth line is plotted with the green color. Also for every trade in a row from 2 to 5 the label "Buy More" is also plotted just below the teeth line. With every next simultaneously opened trade the green color of the space between teeth and price became less transparent.
Strategy settings
In the inputs window user can setup strategy setting: EMA Length (by default = 100, period of EMA, used for long-term trend filtering EMA calculation). User can choose the optimal parameters during backtesting on certain price chart.
Justification of Methodology
Let's explore the key concepts of this strategy and understand how they work together. We'll begin with the simplest: the EMA.
The Exponential Moving Average (EMA) is a type of moving average that assigns greater weight to recent price data, making it more responsive to current market changes compared to the Simple Moving Average (SMA). This tool is widely used in technical analysis to identify trends and generate buy or sell signals. The EMA is calculated as follows:
1.Calculate the Smoothing Multiplier:
Multiplier = 2 / (n + 1), Where n is the number of periods.
2. EMA Calculation
EMA = (Current Price) × Multiplier + (Previous EMA) × (1 − Multiplier)
In this strategy, the EMA acts as a long-term trend filter. For instance, long trades are considered only when the price closes above the EMA (default: 100-period). This increases the likelihood of entering trades aligned with the prevailing trend.
Next, let’s discuss the short-term trend filter, which combines the Williams Alligator and Williams Fractals. Williams Alligator
Developed by Bill Williams, the Alligator is a technical indicator that identifies trends and potential market reversals. It consists of three smoothed moving averages:
Jaw (Blue Line): The slowest of the three, based on a 13-period smoothed moving average shifted 8 bars ahead.
Teeth (Red Line): The medium-speed line, derived from an 8-period smoothed moving average shifted 5 bars forward.
Lips (Green Line): The fastest line, calculated using a 5-period smoothed moving average shifted 3 bars forward.
When the lines diverge and align in order, the "Alligator" is "awake," signaling a strong trend. When the lines overlap or intertwine, the "Alligator" is "asleep," indicating a range-bound or sideways market. This indicator helps traders determine when to enter or avoid trades.
Fractals, another tool by Bill Williams, help identify potential reversal points on a price chart. A fractal forms over at least five consecutive bars, with the middle bar showing either:
Up Fractal: Occurs when the middle bar has a higher high than the two preceding and two following bars, suggesting a potential downward reversal.
Down Fractal: Happens when the middle bar shows a lower low than the surrounding two bars, hinting at a possible upward reversal.
Traders often use fractals alongside other indicators to confirm trends or reversals, enhancing decision-making accuracy.
How do these tools work together in this strategy? Let’s consider an example of an uptrend.
When the price breaks above an up fractal, it signals a potential bullish trend. This occurs because the up fractal represents a shift in market behavior, where a temporary high was formed due to selling pressure. If the price revisits this level and breaks through, it suggests the market sentiment has turned bullish.
The breakout must occur above the Alligator’s teeth line to confirm the trend. A breakout below the teeth is considered invalid, and the downtrend might still persist. Conversely, in a downtrend, the same logic applies with down fractals.
In this strategy if the most recent up fractal breakout occurs above the Alligator's teeth and follows the last down fractal breakout below the teeth, the algorithm identifies an uptrend. Long trades can be opened during this phase if a signal aligns. If the price breaks a down fractal below the teeth line during an uptrend, the strategy assumes the uptrend has ended and closes all open long trades.
By combining the EMA as a long-term trend filter with the Alligator and fractals as short-term filters, this approach increases the likelihood of opening profitable trades while staying aligned with market dynamics.
Now let's talk about Acceleration/Deceleration signals. AC indicator is calculated using the Awesome Oscillator, so let's first of all briefly explain what is Awesome Oscillator and how it can be calculated. The Awesome Oscillator (AO), developed by Bill Williams, is a momentum indicator designed to measure market momentum by contrasting recent price movements with a longer-term historical perspective. It helps traders detect potential trend reversals and assess the strength of ongoing trends.
The formula for AO is as follows:
AO = SMA5(Median Price) − SMA34(Median Price)
where:
Median Price = (High + Low) / 2
SMA5 = 5-period Simple Moving Average of the Median Price
SMA 34 = 34-period Simple Moving Average of the Median Price
The Acceleration/Deceleration (AC) Indicator, introduced by Bill Williams, measures the rate of change in market momentum. It highlights shifts in the driving force of price movements and helps traders spot early signs of trend changes. The AC Indicator is particularly useful for identifying whether the current momentum is accelerating or decelerating, which can indicate potential reversals or continuations. For AC calculation we shall use the AO calculated above is the following formula:
AC = AO − SMA5(AO), where SMA5(AO)is the 5-period Simple Moving Average of the Awesome Oscillator
When the AC is above the zero line and rising, it suggests accelerating upward momentum.
When the AC is below the zero line and falling, it indicates accelerating downward momentum.
When the AC is below zero line and rising it suggests the decelerating the downtrend momentum. When AC is above the zero line and falling, it suggests the decelerating the uptrend momentum.
Now we can explain which AC signal types are used in this strategy. The first type of long signal is when AC value is below zero line. In this cases we need to see three rising bars on the histogram in a row after the falling one. The second type of signals occurs above the zero line. There we need only two rising AC bars in a row after the falling one to create the signal. The signal bar is the last green bar in this sequence. The strategy places the buy stop order one tick above the candle's high, which corresponds to the signal bar on AC indicator.
After that we can have the following scenarios:
Price hit the order on the next candle in this case strategy opened long with this price.
Price doesn't hit the order price, the next candle set lower high. If current AC bar is increasing buy stop order changes by the script to the high of this new bar plus one tick. This procedure repeats until price finally hit buy order or current AC bar become decreasing. In the second case buy order cancelled and strategy wait for the next AC signal.
If long trades are initiated, the strategy continues utilizing subsequent signals until the total number of trades reaches a maximum of 5. All open trades are closed when the trend shifts to a downtrend, as determined by the combination of the Alligator and Fractals described earlier.
Why we use AC signals? If currently strategy algorithm considers the high probability of the short-term uptrend with the Alligator and Fractals combination pointed out above and the long-term trend is also suggested by the EMA filter as bullish. Rising AC bars after period of falling AC bars indicates the high probability of local pull back end and there is a high chance to open long trade in the direction of the most likely main uptrend. The numbers of rising bars are different for the different AC values (below or above zero line). This is needed because if AC below zero line the local downtrend is likely to be stronger and needs more rising bars to confirm that it has been changed than if AC is above zero.
Why strategy use only 10% per signal? Sometimes we can see the false signals which appears on sideways. Not risking that much script use only 10% per signal. If the first long trade has been open and price continue going up and our trend approximation by Alligator and Fractals is uptrend, strategy add another one 10% of capital to every next AC signal while number of active trades no more than 5. This capital allocation allows to take part in long trades when current uptrend is likely to be strong and use only 10% of capital when there is a high probability of sideways.

Triple CCI Strategy MFI Confirmed [Skyrexio]Overview
Triple CCI Strategy MFI Confirmed leverages 3 different periods Commodity Channel Index (CCI) indicator in conjunction Money Flow Index (MFI) and Exponential Moving Average (EMA) to obtain the high probability setups. Fast period CCI is used for having the high probability to enter in the direction of short term trend, middle and slow period CCI are used for confirmation, if market now likely in the mid and long-term uptrend. MFI is used to confirm trade with the money inflow/outflow with the high probability. EMA is used as an additional trend filter. Moreover, strategy uses exponential moving average (EMA) to trail the price when it reaches the specific level. More information in "Methodology" and "Justification of Methodology" paragraphs. The strategy opens only long trades.
Unique Features
Dynamic stop-loss system: Instead of fixed stop-loss level strategy utilizes average true range (ATR) multiplied by user given number subtracted from the position entry price as a dynamic stop loss level.
Configurable Trading Periods: Users can tailor the strategy to specific market windows, adapting to different market conditions.
Four layers trade filtering system: Strategy utilizes two different period CCI indicators, MFI and EMA indicators to confirm the signals produced by fast period CCI.
Trailing take profit level: After reaching the trailing profit activation level scrip activate the trailing of long trade using EMA. More information in methodology.
Methodology
The strategy opens long trade when the following price met the conditions:
Fast period CCI shall crossover the zero-line.
Slow and Middle period CCI shall be above zero-lines.
Price shall close above the EMA. Crossover is not obligatory
MFI shall be above 50
When long trade is executed, strategy set the stop-loss level at the price ATR multiplied by user-given value below the entry price. This level is recalculated on every next candle close, adjusting to the current market volatility.
At the same time strategy set up the trailing stop validation level. When the price crosses the level equals entry price plus ATR multiplied by user-given value script starts to trail the price with EMA. If price closes below EMA long trade is closed. When the trailing starts, script prints the label “Trailing Activated”.
Strategy settings
In the inputs window user can setup the following strategy settings:
ATR Stop Loss (by default = 1.75)
ATR Trailing Profit Activation Level (by default = 2.25)
CCI Fast Length (by default = 14, used for calculation short term period CCI)
CCI Middle Length (by default = 25, used for calculation short term period CCI)
CCI Slow Length (by default = 50, used for calculation long term period CCI)
MFI Length (by default = 14, used for calculation MFI
EMA Length (by default = 50, period of EMA, used for trend filtering EMA calculation)
Trailing EMA Length (by default = 20)
User can choose the optimal parameters during backtesting on certain price chart.
Justification of Methodology
Before understanding why this particular combination of indicator has been chosen let's briefly explain what is CCI, MFI and EMA.
The Commodity Channel Index (CCI) is a momentum-based technical indicator that measures the deviation of a security's price from its average price over a specific period. It helps traders identify overbought or oversold conditions and potential trend reversals.
The CCI formula is:
CCI = (Typical Price − SMA) / (0.015 × Mean Deviation)
Typical Price (TP): This is calculated as the average of the high, low, and closing prices for the period.
Simple Moving Average (SMA): This is the average of the Typical Prices over a specific number of periods.
Mean Deviation: This is the average of the absolute differences between the Typical Price and the SMA.
The result is a value that typically fluctuates between +100 and -100, though it is not bounded and can go higher or lower depending on the price movement.
The Money Flow Index (MFI) is a technical indicator that measures the strength of money flowing into and out of a security. It combines price and volume data to assess buying and selling pressure and is often used to identify overbought or oversold conditions. The formula for MFI involves several steps:
1. Calculate the Typical Price (TP):
TP = (high + low + close) / 3
2. Calculate the Raw Money Flow (RMF):
Raw Money Flow = TP × Volume
3. Determine Positive and Negative Money Flow:
If the current TP is greater than the previous TP, it's Positive Money Flow.
If the current TP is less than the previous TP, it's Negative Money Flow.
4. Calculate the Money Flow Ratio (MFR):
Money Flow Ratio = Sum of Positive Money Flow (over n periods) / Sum of Negative Money Flow (over n periods)
5. Calculate the Money Flow Index (MFI):
MFI = 100 − (100 / (1 + Money Flow Ratio))
MFI above 80 can be considered as overbought, below 20 - oversold.
The Exponential Moving Average (EMA) is a type of moving average that places greater weight and significance on the most recent data points. It is widely used in technical analysis to smooth price data and identify trends more quickly than the Simple Moving Average (SMA).
Formula:
1. Calculate the multiplier
Multiplier = 2 / (n + 1) , Where n is the number of periods.
2. EMA Calculation
EMA = (Current Price) × Multiplier + (Previous EMA) × (1 − Multiplier)
This strategy leverages Fast period CCI, which shall break the zero line to the upside to say that probability of short term trend change to the upside increased. This zero line crossover shall be confirmed by the Middle and Slow periods CCI Indicators. At the moment of breakout these two CCIs shall be above 0, indicating that there is a high probability that price is in middle and long term uptrend. This approach increases chances to have a long trade setup in the direction of mid-term and long-term trends when the short-term trend starts to reverse to the upside.
Additionally strategy uses MFI to have a greater probability that fast CCI breakout is confirmed by this indicator. We consider the values of MFI above 50 as a higher probability that trend change from downtrend to the uptrend is real. Script opens long trades only if MFI is above 50. As you already know from the MFI description, it incorporates volume in its calculation, therefore we have another one confirmation factor.
Finally, strategy uses EMA an additional trend filter. It allows to open long trades only if price close above EMA (by default 50 period). It increases the probability of taking long trades only in the direction of the trend.
ATR is used to adjust the strategy risk management to the current market volatility. If volatility is low, we don’t need the large stop loss to understand the there is a high probability that we made a mistake opening the trade. User can setup the settings ATR Stop Loss and ATR Trailing Profit Activation Level to realize his own risk to reward preferences, but the unique feature of a strategy is that after reaching trailing profit activation level strategy is trying to follow the trend until it is likely to be finished instead of using fixed risk management settings. It allows sometimes to be involved in the large movements. It’s also important to make a note, that script uses another one EMA (by default = 20 period) as a trailing profit level.

Trend Continuation RatioThis TradingView indicator calculates the likelihood of consecutive bullish or bearish days over a specified period, giving insights into day-to-day continuation patterns within the market.
How It Works
Period Length Input:
The user sets the period length (e.g., 20 days) to analyze.
After each period, the counts reset, allowing fresh data for each new interval.
Bullish and Bearish Day Definitions:
A day is considered bullish if the closing price is higher than the opening price.
A day is considered bearish if the closing price is lower than the opening price.
Count Tracking:
Within each specified period, the indicator tracks:
Total Bullish Days: The number of days where the close is greater than the open.
Total Bearish Days: The number of days where the close is less than the open.
Bullish to Bullish Continuations: Counts each instance where a bullish day is followed by another bullish day.
Bearish to Bearish Continuations: Counts each instance where a bearish day is followed by another bearish day.
Calculating Continuation Ratios:
The Bullish Continuation Ratio is calculated as the percentage of bullish days that were followed by another bullish day:
Bullish Continuation Ratio = (Bullish to Bullish Continuations /Total Bullish Days)×100
Bullish Continuation Ratio=( Total Bullish Days/Bullish to Bullish Continuations )×100
The Bearish Continuation Ratio is the percentage of bearish days followed by another bearish day:
Bearish Continuation Ratio = (Bearish to Bearish Continuations/Total Bearish Days)×100
Bearish Continuation Ratio=( Total Bearish Days/Bearish to Bearish Continuations )×100
Display on Chart:
The indicator displays a table in the top-right corner of the chart with:
Bullish Continuation Ratio (%): Percentage of bullish days that led to another bullish day within the period.
Bearish Continuation Ratio (%): Percentage of bearish days that led to another bearish day within the period.
Usage Insights
High Ratios: If the bullish or bearish continuation ratio is high, it suggests a trend where bullish/bearish days often lead to similar days, indicating possible momentum.
Low Ratios: Low continuation ratios indicate frequent reversals, which could suggest a range-bound or volatile market.
This indicator is helpful for assessing short-term trend continuation tendencies, allowing traders to gauge whether they are more likely to see follow-through on bullish or bearish days within a chosen timeframe.
Forex Relative Strength MatrixTraders often feel uncertain about which Forex pair to open a position with. This indicator is designed to help in that regard.
This indicator was created as described in the book Swing Trading with Heiken Ashi and Stochastics. In the original, the author suggests using it for swing trading. The author recommends applying it to a monthly chart with an 8-period moving average to analyze the context.
The logic of the indicator is to measure the relative strength of each currency by checking if the price of each Forex pair is above or below a chosen moving average. If the price is above the moving average, the base currency is awarded 1 point, indicating strength. If below, it scores 0, indicating weakness. By accumulating points across multiple pairs, the indicator ranks currencies from strongest to weakest, helping traders identify potential pairs for trading.
Trend Identification:
After identifying relative strength, the trader should observe the general trend using a 100-period SMA on 4-hour charts. If the price is above the SMA, the trend is bullish; if below, it is bearish.
Buy Logic:
A buy is triggered when the base currency is strong (price is above the moving average) and the quote currency is weak (price is below the moving average). After identifying the trend direction, the entry is confirmed by a color change in Heiken Ashi candles (from red to green in an uptrend) and a stochastic crossover in the trend’s direction.
Sell Logic:
A sell is triggered when the base currency is weak (price is below the moving average) and the quote currency is strong (price is above the moving average). The sell entry is confirmed by a color change in Heiken Ashi candles (from green to red in a downtrend) and a stochastic crossover aligned with the trend.
Entry Chart:
The entry chart used is the 4-hour chart. The trader should look for entry signals following a pullback in the trend direction, using Heiken Ashi candles. Entry is made when the Heiken Ashi candles change color (from red to green in an uptrend) and there is a smooth crossover of the stochastic indicator in the trend’s direction.
It would also be possible to adapt the indicator for day trading strategies with targets of 1 to 2 days. Here is a recommended setup:
Relative Strength Identification (1-Hour Chart):
Instead of monthly charts, use a 1-hour chart to identify currency strength with a 20-period moving average.
The 20-period moving average on the 1-hour chart captures a balanced view of short- to medium-term direction, covering nearly a day’s worth of trading but with enough sensitivity for day trading.
General Trend (5-Minute Chart with 100 SMA):
On the 5-minute chart, observe the 100-period SMA to identify the general trend direction throughout the day.
Price above the 100 SMA indicates an uptrend, and below indicates a downtrend, confirming the movement in shorter timeframes.
Entry Chart and Signals (5-Minute Chart):
Use the 15-minute chart to look for entry opportunities, focusing on pullbacks in the main trend direction.
Entry Signals: Enter the position when Heiken Ashi candles change color in the trend direction (from red to green in an uptrend) and the stochastic indicator makes a smooth crossover in the trend’s direction.
Patrick [TFO]This Patrick indicator was made for the 1 year anniversary of my Spongebob indicator, which was an experiment in using the polyline features of Pine Script to draw complex subjects. This indicator was made with the same methodology, with some helper functions to make things a bit easier on myself. It's sole purpose is to display a picture of Patrick Star on your chart, particularly the "I have $3" meme.
The initial Spongebob indicator included more than 1300 lines of code, as there were several more shapes to account for compared to Patrick, however it was done rather inefficiently. I essentially used an anchor point for each "layer" or shape (eye, nose, mouth, etc.), and drew from that point. This resulted in a ton of trial and error as I had to be very careful about the anchor points for each and every layer, and then draw around that point. In this indicator, however, I gave myself a frame to work with by specifying fixed bounds that you'll see in the code: LEFT, RIGHT, TOP, and BOTTOM.
var y_size = 4
atr = ta.atr(50)
LEFT = bar_index + 10
RIGHT = LEFT + 200
TOP = open + atr * y_size
BOTTOM = open - atr * y_size
You may notice that the top and bottom scale with the atr, or Average True Range to account for varying price fluctuations on different assets.
With these limits established, I could write some simple functions to translate my coordinates, using a range of 0-100 to describe how far the X coordinates should be from left to right, where left is 0 and right is 100; and likewise how far the Y coordinates should be from bottom to top, where bottom is 0 and top is 100.
X(float P) =>
result = LEFT + math.floor((RIGHT - LEFT)*P/100)
Y(float P) =>
result = BOTTOM + (TOP - BOTTOM)*P/100
With these functions, I could then start drawing points much simpler, with respect to the overall frame of the picture. If I wanted a point in the dead center of the frame, I would choose X(50), Y(50) for example.
At this point, the process just became tediously drawing each layer of my reference picture, including but not limited to Patrick's body, arm, mouth, eyes, eyebrows, etc. I've attached the reference picture here (left), without the text enabled.
As tedious as this was to create, it was done much more efficiently than Spongebob, and the ideas used here will make it much easier to draw more complex subjects in the future.
[ AlgoChart ] - Pearson Index CorrelationCorrelation Indicator (Pearson Index)
The correlation indicator measures the strength and direction of the relationship between two financial assets using the Pearson Index.
Correlation values range from +100 to -100, where:
+100 indicates perfect positive correlation, meaning the two assets tend to move in the same direction.
-100 indicates perfect negative correlation, where the two assets move in opposite directions.
The neutral zone ranges from +25% to -25%, suggesting that the asset movements are independent, with no clear correlation between them.
Interpreting Correlation Levels:
Correlation above +75%: The two assets tend to move similarly and in the same direction. This may indicate a risk of overexposure if both assets are traded in the same direction, as their movements will be very similar, increasing the likelihood of double losses or gains.
Correlation below -75%: The two assets tend to move similarly but in opposite directions. This correlation level can be useful for strategies that benefit from opposing movements between assets, such as trading pairs with inverse dynamics.
Practical Use of the Indicator:
Risk management: Use the indicator to monitor asset correlations before opening positions. High correlation may indicate you are duplicating exposure, as two highly correlated assets tend to move similarly. This helps avoid excessive risk and improves portfolio diversification.
Statistical Arbitrage: During moments of temporary decorrelation between two assets, the indicator can be used for statistical arbitrage strategies. In such cases, you can take advantage of the divergence by opening positions and closing them when the correlation returns to higher or positive levels, thus potentially profiting from the reconvergence of movements.
While the correlation indicator provides valuable insights into asset relationships, it is most effective when used in conjunction with other concepts and tools. On its own, it may offer limited relevance in trading decisions.

## 1. Introduction to the RSI and Moving Averages
### **1.1 Relative Strength Index (RSI)**
The Relative Strength Index (RSI) is a momentum oscillator developed by J. Welles Wilder and introduced in his 1978 book "New Concepts in Technical Trading Systems." It is widely used in technical analysis to measure the speed and change of price movements.
**Purpose of RSI:**
- **Identify Overbought/Oversold Conditions:** RSI values range from 0 to 100. Traditionally, values above 70 are considered overbought, while values below 30 are considered oversold. These thresholds help traders identify potential reversal points in the market.
- **Trend Strength Measurement:** RSI also indicates the strength of a trend. High RSI values suggest strong bullish momentum, while low values indicate bearish momentum.
**Calculation of RSI:**
1. **Calculate the Average Gain and Loss:** Over a specified period (e.g., 14 days), calculate the average gain and loss.
2. **Compute the Relative Strength (RS):** RS is the ratio of average gain to average loss.
3. **RSI Formula:** RSI = 100 - (100 / (1 + RS))
### **1.2 Moving Averages (MA)**
Moving Averages are used to smooth out price data and identify trends by filtering out short-term fluctuations. Two common types are:
**Simple Moving Average (SMA):** The average of prices over a specified number of periods.
**Exponential Moving Average (EMA):** A type of moving average that gives more weight to recent prices, making it more responsive to recent price changes.
**Smoothed Moving Average (SMA):** Used to reduce the impact of volatility and provide a clearer view of the underlying trend. The RMA, or Running Moving Average, used in the USH script is similar to an EMA but based on the average of RSI values.
## 2. Detailed Breakdown of the Uptrick: RSI Histogram
### **2.1 Indicator Overview**
The Uptrick: RSI Histogram (USH) is a technical analysis tool that combines the RSI with a moving average to create a histogram that reflects momentum and trend strength.
**Key Components:**
- **RSI Calculation:** Determines the relative strength of price movements.
- **Moving Average Application:** Smooths the RSI values to provide a clearer trend indication.
- **Histogram Plotting:** Visualizes the deviation of the smoothed RSI from a neutral level.
### **2.2 Indicator Purpose**
The primary purpose of the USH is to provide a clear visual representation of the market's momentum and trend strength. It helps traders identify:
- **Bullish and Bearish Trends:** By showing how far the smoothed RSI is from the neutral 50 level.
- **Potential Reversal Points:** By highlighting changes in momentum.
### **2.3 Indicator Design**
**RSI Moving Average (RSI MA):** The RSI MA is a smoothed version of the RSI, calculated using a running moving average. This smooths out short-term fluctuations and provides a clearer indication of the underlying trend.
**Histogram Calculation:**
- **Neutral Level:** The histogram is plotted relative to the neutral level of 50. This level represents a balanced market where neither bulls nor bears have dominance.
- **Histogram Values:** The histogram bars show the difference between the RSI MA and the neutral level. Positive values indicate bullish momentum, while negative values indicate bearish momentum.
## 3. Calculation and Formula
### **3.1 RSI Calculation**
The RSI calculation involves:
1. **Average Gain and Loss:** Calculated over the specified length (e.g., 14 periods).
2. **Relative Strength (RS):** RS = Average Gain / Average Loss.
3. **RSI Formula:** RSI = 100 - (100 / (1 + RS)).
### **3.2 Moving Average Calculation**
For the USH indicator, the RSI is smoothed using a running moving average (RMA). The RMA formula is similar to that of the EMA but is based on averaging RSI values over the specified length.
### **3.3 Histogram Calculation**
The histogram value is calculated as:
- **Histogram Value = RSI MA - 50**
**Plotting the Histogram:**
- **Positive Histogram Values:** Indicate that the RSI MA is above the neutral level, suggesting bullish momentum.
- **Negative Histogram Values:** Indicate that the RSI MA is below the neutral level, suggesting bearish momentum.
## 4. Visual Representation
### **4.1 Histogram Bars**
The histogram is plotted as bars on the chart:
- **Bullish Bars:** Colored green when the RSI MA is above 50.
- **Bearish Bars:** Colored red when the RSI MA is below 50.
### **4.2 Customization Options**
Traders can customize:
- **RSI Length:** Adjust the length of the RSI calculation to match their trading style.
- **Bull and Bear Colors:** Choose colors for histogram bars to enhance visual clarity.
### **4.3 Interpretation**
**Bullish Signal:** A histogram bar that moves from red to green indicates a potential shift to a bullish trend.
**Bearish Signal:** A histogram bar that moves from green to red indicates a potential shift to a bearish trend.
## 5. Customization and User Settings
### **5.1 Adjusting RSI Length**
The length parameter determines the number of periods over which the RSI is calculated and smoothed. Shorter lengths make the RSI more sensitive to price changes, while longer lengths provide a smoother view of trends.
### **5.2 Color Settings**
Traders can adjust:
- **Bull Color:** Color of histogram bars indicating bullish momentum.
- **Bear Color:** Color of histogram bars indicating bearish momentum.
**Customization Benefits:**
- **Visual Clarity:** Traders can choose colors that stand out against their chart’s background.
- **Personal Preference:** Adjust settings to match individual trading styles and preferences.
## 6. Trading Strategies and Applications
### **6.1 Trend Following**
**Identifying Entry Points:**
- **Bullish Entry:** When the histogram changes from red to green, it signals a potential entry point for long positions.
- **Bearish Entry:** When the histogram changes from green to red, it signals a potential entry point for short positions.
**Trend Confirmation:** The histogram helps confirm the strength of a trend. Strong, consistent green bars indicate robust bullish momentum, while strong, consistent red bars indicate robust bearish momentum.
### **6.2 Swing Trading**
**Momentum Analysis:**
- **Entry Signals:** Look for significant shifts in the histogram to time entries. A shift from bearish to bullish (red to green) indicates potential for upward movement.
- **Exit Signals:** A shift from bullish to bearish (green to red) suggests a potential weakening of the trend, signaling an exit or reversal point.
### **6.3 Range Trading**
**Market Conditions:**
- **Consolidation:** The histogram close to zero suggests a range-bound market. Traders can use this information to identify support and resistance levels.
- **Breakout Potential:** A significant move away from the neutral level may indicate a potential breakout from the range.
### **6.4 Risk Management**
**Stop-Loss Placement:**
- **Bullish Positions:** Place stop-loss orders below recent support levels when the histogram is green.
- **Bearish Positions:** Place stop-loss orders above recent resistance levels when the histogram is red.
**Position Sizing:** Adjust position sizes based on the strength of the histogram signals. Strong trends (indicated by larger histogram bars) may warrant larger positions, while weaker signals suggest smaller positions.
## 7. Risk Management
### **7.1 Importance of Risk Management**
Effective risk management is crucial for long-term trading success. It involves protecting capital, managing losses, and optimizing trade setups.
### **7.2 Using USH for Risk Management**
**Stop-Loss and Take-Profit Levels:**
- **Stop-Loss Orders:** Use the histogram to set stop-loss levels based on trend strength. For instance, place stops below support levels in bullish trends and above resistance levels in bearish trends.
- **Take-Profit Targets:** Adjust take-profit levels based on histogram changes. For example, lock in profits as the histogram starts to shift from green to red.
**Position Sizing:**
- **Trend Strength:** Scale position sizes based on the strength of histogram signals. Larger histogram bars indicate stronger trends, which may justify larger positions.
- **Volatility:** Consider market volatility and adjust position sizes to mitigate risk.
## 8. Case Studies and Examples
### **8.1 Example 1: Bullish Trend**
**Scenario:** A trader notices a transition from red to green histogram bars.
**Analysis:**
- **Entry Point:** The transition indicates a potential bullish trend. The trader decides to enter a long position.
- **Stop-Loss:** Set stop-loss below recent support levels.
- **Take-Profit:** Consider taking profits as the histogram moves back towards zero or turns red.
**Outcome:** The bullish trend continues, and the histogram remains green, providing a profitable trade setup.
### **8.2 Example 2: Bearish Trend**
**Scenario:** A trader observes a transition from green to red histogram bars.
**Analysis:**
- **Entry Point:** The transition suggests a potential
bearish trend. The trader decides to enter a short position.
- **Stop-Loss:** Set stop-loss above recent resistance levels.
- **Take-Profit:** Consider taking profits as the histogram approaches zero or shifts to green.
**Outcome:** The bearish trend continues, and the histogram remains red, resulting in a successful trade.
## 9. Comparison with Other Indicators
### **9.1 RSI vs. USH**
**RSI:** Measures momentum and identifies overbought/oversold conditions.
**USH:** Builds on RSI by incorporating a moving average and histogram to provide a clearer view of trend strength and momentum.
### **9.2 RSI vs. MACD**
**MACD (Moving Average Convergence Divergence):** A trend-following momentum indicator that uses moving averages to identify changes in trend direction.
**Comparison:**
- **USH:** Provides a smoothed RSI perspective and visual histogram for trend strength.
- **MACD:** Offers signals based on the convergence and divergence of moving averages.
### **9.3 RSI vs. Stochastic Oscillator**
**Stochastic Oscillator:** Measures the level of the closing price relative to the high-low range over a specified period.
**Comparison:**
- **USH:** Focuses on smoothed RSI values and histogram representation.
- **Stochastic Oscillator:** Provides overbought/oversold signals and potential reversals based on price levels.
## 10. Advanced Usage and Tips
### **10.1 Combining Indicators**
**Multi-Indicator Strategies:** Combine the USH with other technical indicators (e.g., Moving Averages, Bollinger Bands) for a comprehensive trading strategy.
**Confirmation Signals:** Use the USH to confirm signals from other indicators. For instance, a bullish histogram combined with a moving average crossover may provide a stronger buy signal.
