the "fasle" hull moving averageThere is a little different between my "fasle hull moving average" the "correct one".
the correct algorithm:
hma = wma((2*wma(close,n/2) - wma(close,n),sqrt(n))
the "fasle" algorithm:
=wma((2*wma(close,n/4) - wma(close,n),sqrt(n))
Amazing! Why the "fasle" describe the trend so accurate!?

PRICE SATURATION INDEX / FİYAT YOĞUNLUK ENDEKSİEN: PRICE SATURATION INDEX is a momentum algorithm that measures price intensity. It helps us to determine the times when the price reaches intensity and calculates the latency in those moving averages. Moving averages have lag. The lag is necessary because the smoothing is done using past data. It shows you how to filtered a selected amount of lag from an exponential moving average (ema) and price movements. Removing all the lag is not necessarily a good thing, because with no lag, the indicator would just track out the price we were filtering, just as it is the moving average of 1 period; the amount of lag removed is a tradeoff with the amount of smoothing we are willing to forgo with golden ratio and multiline function. We show you the effects of lag removal in an indicator and then use the filter in an effective trading strategy with multiline function. The multiline function is inspired by Jhon Ehlers' zero lag formule, smooth moving average strategy and Schrödinger equation. The Schrödinger equation is a wave function based on quantum mechanics
TR: FİYAT YOĞUNLUK ENDEKSİ, fiyat yoğunluğunu ölçen bir momentum algoritmasıdır. Fiyatın yoğunluğa ulaştığı zamanları belirlememize ve hareketli ortalamalardaki gecikmeyi hesaplamamıza yardımcı olur. Hareketli ortalamalar daima gecikir. Gecikme gereklidir çünkü yumuşatma geçmiş veriler kullanılarak yapılır. Bu algoritma hem fiyat hareketlerindeki hemde üstel hareketli ortalamadaki gecikme miktarının nasıl filtreleneceğini gösterir. Tüm gecikmenin kaldırılması iyi bir şey değildir, çünkü gecikme olmadığında gösterge sadece 1 periyodun hareketli ortalaması gibi davranacağı için filtrelediğimiz fiyatı izleyecektir; filtrelenen gecikme miktarı, terk etmek istediğimiz yumuşatma miktarına alternatif bir multiline fonksiyon ve altın orana uyarlanan frekans değirinden oluşur. Bu göstergede gecikmenin ortadan kaldırılmasının etkilerini gösteriyoruz ve daha sonra filtreyi multiline fonksiyona sahip etkili bir trading stratejisi olarak kullanıyoruz. Multiline fonksiyon, Jhon Ehler'in zero lag formülü, smooth hareketli ortalama stratejisi ve Schrödinger denkleminden esinlenmiştir. Schrödinger denklemi ise kuantum mekaniğini temel alan bir dalga fonksiyonudur.
IME's Community First Presented FVGsIME's Community First Presented FVGs v1.5 - Advanced Implementation
ORIGINALITY & INNOVATION
This indicator advances beyond basic Fair Value Gap detection by implementing a sophisticated 24-hour FVG lifecycle management system aligned with institutional trading patterns. While many FVG indicators simply detect gaps and extend them indefinitely, this implementation introduces temporal intelligence that mirrors how institutional algorithms actually manage these inefficiencies.
Key Innovations that set this apart:
- 24-Hour Lifecycle Management: FVGs extend dynamically until 16:59, then freeze until removal at 17:00 next day
- Institutional Day Alignment: Recognizes 18:00-16:59 trading cycles vs standard calendar days
- Multi-Session Detection: Simultaneous monitoring of Midnight, London, NY AM, and NY PM sessions
- Advanced Classification System: A.FVG detection with volume imbalance analysis vs classic FVG patterns
- Volatility Settlement Logic: Blocks contamination from opening mechanics (3:01+, 0:01+, 13:31+ rules)
- Visual Enhancement System: C.E. lines, contamination warnings, dark mode support with proper transparency handling
BASED ON ICT CONCEPTS
This indicator implements First Presented Fair Value Gap methodology taught by ICT (Inner Circle Trader). The original F.P. FVG concepts, timing rules, and session-based detection are credited to ICT's educational material. This implementation extends those foundational concepts with advanced lifecycle management and institutional alignment features.
ICT's Core F.P. FVG Rules Implemented:
- First clean FVG after session opening (avoids opening contamination)
- 3-candle pattern requirement for valid detection
- Session-specific timing windows and volatility settlement
- Consequent Encroachment level identification
IME's Advanced Enhancements:
- Automated lifecycle management with institutional day recognition
- Multi-session simultaneous monitoring with proper isolation
- Advanced visual system with transparency states for aged FVGs
- A.FVG classification with volume imbalance detection algorithms
HOW IT WORKS
Core Detection Engine
The indicator monitors four key institutional sessions using precise timing windows:
- Midnight Session: 00:01-00:30 (blocks 00:00 contamination)
- London Session: 03:01-03:30 (blocks 03:00 contamination)
- NY AM Session: 09:30-10:00 (configurable 9:30 detection)
- NY PM Session: 13:31-14:00 (blocks 13:30 contamination)
During each session window, the algorithm scans for the first valid FVG pattern using ICT's 3-candle rule while applying volatility settlement principles to avoid false signals from opening mechanics.
Advanced Classification System
Classic FVG Detection:
Standard 3-candle wick-to-wick gap where candle 1 and 3 don't overlap, creating an inefficiency that institutions must eventually fill.
A.FVG (Advanced FVG) Detection:
Enhanced pattern recognition that includes volume imbalance analysis (deadpool detection) to identify more significant institutional inefficiencies. A.FVGs incorporate both the basic gap plus additional price imbalances between candle bodies, creating larger, more significant levels.
24-Hour Lifecycle Management
Phase 1 - Dynamic Extension (Creation Day):
From detection until 16:59 of creation day, FVGs extend in real-time as new bars form, maintaining their relevance as potential support/resistance levels.
Phase 2 - Freeze Period (Next Day):
At 16:59, FVGs stop extending and "freeze" at their final size, remaining visible as reference levels but no longer growing. This prevents outdated levels from contaminating fresh analysis.
Phase 3 - Cleanup (17:00 Next Day):
Exactly 24+ hours after creation, FVGs are automatically removed to maintain chart clarity. This timing aligns with institutional trading cycle completion.
Institutional Day Logic
The algorithm recognizes that institutional trading days run from 18:00-16:59 (not midnight-midnight). This alignment ensures FVGs are managed according to institutional timeframes rather than arbitrary calendar boundaries.
Contamination Avoidance System
Volatility Settlement Principle:
Opening mechanics create artificial volatility that can produce false FVG signals. The indicator automatically blocks detection during exact session opening times (X:00) and requires settlement time (X:01+) before identifying clean institutional inefficiencies.
Special NY AM Handling:
Provides configurable 9:30 detection for advanced users who want to capture potential opening range FVGs, with clear visual warnings about contamination risk.
VISUAL SYSTEM
Color Intelligence
- Current Day FVGs: Full opacity with session-specific colors
- Previous Day FVGs: 70% transparency for historical reference
- Special Timing (9:30): Dedicated warning color with alert labels
- Dark Mode Support: Automatic text/line color adaptation
Enhanced Visual Elements
C.E. (Consequent Encroachment) Lines:
Automatically calculated 50% levels within each FVG, representing the most likely fill point based on institutional behavior patterns. These levels extend and freeze with their parent FVG.
Contamination Warnings:
Visual alerts when FVGs are detected during potentially contaminated timing, helping traders understand signal quality.
Session Identification:
Clear labeling system showing FVG type (FVG/A.FVG), session origin (NY AM, London, etc.), and creation date for easy reference.
HOW TO USE
Basic Setup
1. Session Selection: Enable/disable specific sessions based on your trading strategy
2. FVG Type: Choose between Classic FVGs or A.FVGs depending on your analysis preference
3. Visual Preferences: Adjust colors, text size, and enable dark mode if needed
Trading Applications
Intraday Reference Levels:
Use current day FVGs as potential support/resistance for price action analysis. The dynamic extension ensures levels remain relevant throughout the trading session.
Multi-Session Analysis:
Monitor how price interacts with FVGs from different sessions to understand institutional flow and market structure.
C.E. Level Trading:
Focus on the 50% consequent encroachment levels for high-probability entry points when price approaches FVG zones.
Historical Context:
Previous day FVGs (shown with transparency) provide context for understanding market structure evolution across multiple trading days.
Advanced Features
9:30 Special Detection:
For experienced traders, enable 9:30 FVG detection to capture opening range inefficiencies, but understand the contamination risks indicated by warning labels.
A.FVG vs Classic Toggle:
Switch between detection modes based on market conditions - A.FVGs for trending environments, Classic FVGs for ranging conditions.
Best Practices
- Use on 1-minute to 15-minute timeframes for optimal session detection
- Combine with other institutional concepts (order blocks, liquidity levels) for comprehensive analysis
- Pay attention to transparency states - current day FVGs are more actionable than previous day references
- Consider C.E. levels as primary targets rather than full FVG fills

Tensor Market Analysis Engine (TMAE)# Tensor Market Analysis Engine (TMAE)
## Advanced Multi-Dimensional Mathematical Analysis System
*Where Quantum Mathematics Meets Market Structure*
---
## 🎓 THEORETICAL FOUNDATION
The Tensor Market Analysis Engine represents a revolutionary synthesis of three cutting-edge mathematical frameworks that have never before been combined for comprehensive market analysis. This indicator transcends traditional technical analysis by implementing advanced mathematical concepts from quantum mechanics, information theory, and fractal geometry.
### 🌊 Multi-Dimensional Volatility with Jump Detection
**Hawkes Process Implementation:**
The TMAE employs a sophisticated Hawkes process approximation for detecting self-exciting market jumps. Unlike traditional volatility measures that treat price movements as independent events, the Hawkes process recognizes that market shocks cluster and exhibit memory effects.
**Mathematical Foundation:**
```
Intensity λ(t) = μ + Σ α(t - Tᵢ)
```
Where market jumps at times Tᵢ increase the probability of future jumps through the decay function α, controlled by the Hawkes Decay parameter (0.5-0.99).
**Mahalanobis Distance Calculation:**
The engine calculates volatility jumps using multi-dimensional Mahalanobis distance across up to 5 volatility dimensions:
- **Dimension 1:** Price volatility (standard deviation of returns)
- **Dimension 2:** Volume volatility (normalized volume fluctuations)
- **Dimension 3:** Range volatility (high-low spread variations)
- **Dimension 4:** Correlation volatility (price-volume relationship changes)
- **Dimension 5:** Microstructure volatility (intrabar positioning analysis)
This creates a volatility state vector that captures market behavior impossible to detect with traditional single-dimensional approaches.
### 📐 Hurst Exponent Regime Detection
**Fractal Market Hypothesis Integration:**
The TMAE implements advanced Rescaled Range (R/S) analysis to calculate the Hurst exponent in real-time, providing dynamic regime classification:
- **H > 0.6:** Trending (persistent) markets - momentum strategies optimal
- **H < 0.4:** Mean-reverting (anti-persistent) markets - contrarian strategies optimal
- **H ≈ 0.5:** Random walk markets - breakout strategies preferred
**Adaptive R/S Analysis:**
Unlike static implementations, the TMAE uses adaptive windowing that adjusts to market conditions:
```
H = log(R/S) / log(n)
```
Where R is the range of cumulative deviations and S is the standard deviation over period n.
**Dynamic Regime Classification:**
The system employs hysteresis to prevent regime flipping, requiring sustained Hurst values before regime changes are confirmed. This prevents false signals during transitional periods.
### 🔄 Transfer Entropy Analysis
**Information Flow Quantification:**
Transfer entropy measures the directional flow of information between price and volume, revealing lead-lag relationships that indicate future price movements:
```
TE(X→Y) = Σ p(yₜ₊₁, yₜ, xₜ) log
```
**Causality Detection:**
- **Volume → Price:** Indicates accumulation/distribution phases
- **Price → Volume:** Suggests retail participation or momentum chasing
- **Balanced Flow:** Market equilibrium or transition periods
The system analyzes multiple lag periods (2-20 bars) to capture both immediate and structural information flows.

VWAP/VOL [Extension] | FractalystWhat's the indicator's purpose and functionality?
The VWAP/VOL Extension is designed specifically as a bias identification system for the Quantify Trading Model.
This extension uses volume-weighted average price analysis combined with institutional volume classification to automatically detect market bias without requiring optimization periods that lead to overfitting.
The system provides real-time bias signals (bullish/bearish/neutral) that integrate directly with Quantify's machine learning algorithms, enabling institutional-level backtesting and automated entry/exit identification based on genuine market structure rather than curve-fitted parameters.
How does this extension work with the Quantify Trading Model?
The VWAP/VOL Extension serves as the bias detection engine for Quantify's automated trading system.
Instead of manually selecting bias direction, this extension automatically identifies market bias using:
- Volume-weighted VWAP analysis with three-state detection (bullish/bearish/neutral)
- Institutional volume classification using relative volume thresholds without optimization
- Non-repainting architecture ensuring consistent bias signals for Quantify's machine learning
The extension outputs bias signals that Quantify uses as input through the `input.source()` function, allowing the Trading Model to focus on optimal entry/exit timing while the extension handles bias identification.
Why doesn't this use optimization periods like other indicators?
The VWAP/VOL Extension deliberately avoids optimization periods to prevent overfitting bias that destroys out-of-sample performance. The system uses:
- Fixed mathematical thresholds based on market structure principles rather than optimized parameters
- Relative volume analysis using standard 2.0x/0.5x ratios that work across all market conditions
- VWAP distance calculations based on percentage thresholds without curve-fitting
- Gap enforcement using fixed 5-bar minimums for disciplined bias detection
This approach ensures the bias signals remain robust across different market regimes without the performance degradation typical of over-optimized systems.
Can this extension be used independently for discretionary trading?
No, the VWAP/VOL Extension is specifically engineered to work as a component within the Quantify ecosystem. The extension is designed to:
- Provide bias input for Quantify's machine learning algorithms
- Enable automated backtesting through systematic bias identification
- Support institutional-level analysis when combined with Quantify's ML entry model
Using this extension independently would miss the primary value proposition of systematic entry/exit optimization that Quantify provides.
The extension handles bias detection so Quantify can focus on probability-based trade timing and risk management.
How does this enable institutional-level backtesting?
The extension transforms discretionary bias identification into systematic institutional analysis by:
- Eliminating subjective bias selection through automated VWAP/volume analysis
- Providing consistent historical signals with non-repainting architecture for accurate backtesting
- Integrating with Quantify's algorithms to identify optimal entry patterns based on objective bias states
- Enabling performance analysis across multiple market regimes without optimization bias
This combination allows Quantify to run institutional-grade backtests with consistent bias identification, generating reliable performance statistics and risk metrics that reflect genuine market edge rather than curve-fitted results.
How do I integrate this with the Quantify Trading Model?
Integration enables institutional-grade systematic trading through advanced machine learning and statistical validation:
- Add both VWAP/VOL Extension and Quantify Trading Model to your chart
- Select VWAP/VOL Extension as the bias source using input.source()
- Quantify automatically uses the extension's bias signals for entry/exit analysis
- The built-in machine learning algorithms score optimal entry and exit levels based on trend intensity, volume conviction, and market structure patterns identified by the extension
The extension handles all bias detection complexity while Quantify focuses on optimal trade timing, position sizing, and risk management along with PineConnector automation
What markets and assets does the VWAP/VOL Extension work best on?
The VWAP/VOL Extension performs optimally on markets with consistent, high-volume participation since the system relies on institutional volume analysis for bias detection. Futures markets provide the most reliable performance due to their centralized volume data and continuous institutional participation.
Recommended Futures Markets:
- ES (S&P 500 E-mini) - Over 2 million contracts daily volume, excellent liquidity depth
- NQ (NASDAQ-100 E-mini) - Around 600,000 contracts daily, strong tech sector representation
- YM (Dow Jones E-mini) - Consistent institutional flow and volume patterns
- RTY (Russell 2000 E-mini) - Small-cap exposure with reliable volume data
- GC (Gold Futures) - High volume commodity with institutional participation
- CL (Crude Oil Futures) - Energy sector representation with strong volume consistency
Why Futures Markets Excel:
- Futures markets provide centralized volume reporting, ensuring the extension's volume classification system receives accurate institutional participation data. The standardized contract specifications and continuous trading hours create consistent volume patterns that the extension's algorithms can analyze effectively.
Acceptable Timeframes and Portfolio Integration:
- Any timeframe that can be evaluated within Quantify Trading Model's backtesting engine is acceptable for live trading implementation.
The extension is specifically designed to integrate with Quantify's portfolio management system, allowing multiple strategies across different timeframes and assets to operate simultaneously while maintaining consistent bias identification methodology across the entire automated trading portfolio.

Trend Lines by CR86The basic construction algorithm:
1. The baseline trend line through the closing prices:
First, the best fit line (linear regression) is calculated for the closing prices for a given period.
The least squares method is used to find the optimal slope and intersection point.
2. Search for key deviation points:
For each bar in the period, the deviation of the maximum and minimum from the regression baseline is calculated.
The point with the maximum deviation of the maximum upward from the regression line (for the resistance line) is located
The point with the maximum deviation of the minimum is located down from the regression line (for the support line)
3. Optimizing the slope of the lines:
Lines with an optimized slope are drawn through the found key points.
The algorithm selects the slope so that the line best "bends around" the corresponding extremes (maxima for resistance, minima for support)
Numerical optimization is used to check the validity of the trend line.
4. The principle of validity:
For the support line: all points must be above or at the line level (with a tolerance of 1e-5)
For the resistance line: all points must be below or at the line level (with a tolerance of 1e-5)
Key Features
Adaptability: the lines automatically adjust to the actual price extremes
Mathematical precision: a rigorous mathematical approach with optimization is used
Logarithmic scaling: optional for dealing with highly volatile assets

Основной алгоритм построения:
1. Базовая линия тренда через цены закрытия:
Сначала вычисляется линия наилучшего соответствия (линейная регрессия) для цен закрытия за заданный период
Используется метод наименьших квадратов для нахождения оптимального наклона и точки пересечения
2. Поиск ключевых точек отклонения:
Для каждого бара в периоде вычисляется отклонение максимума и минимума от базовой линии регрессии
Находится точка с максимальным отклонением максимума вверх от линии регрессии (для линии сопротивления)
Находится точка с максимальным отклонением минимума вниз от линии регрессии (для линии поддержки)
3. Оптимизация наклона линий:
Через найденные ключевые точки проводятся линии с оптимизированным наклоном
Алгоритм подбирает такой наклон, чтобы линия наилучшим образом "огибала" соответствующие экстремумы (максимумы для сопротивления, минимумы для поддержки)
Используется численная оптимизация с проверкой валидности трендовой линии
4. Принцип валидности:
Для линии поддержки: все точки должны быть выше или на уровне линии (с допуском 1e-5)
Для линии сопротивления: все точки должны быть ниже или на уровне линии (с допуском 1e-5)
Ключевые особенности
Адаптивность: линии автоматически подстраиваются под фактические экстремумы цен
Математическая точность: используется строгий математический подход с оптимизацией
Логарифмическое масштабирование: опционально для работы с сильно волатильными активами

Current implementation takes it a step further by dynamically adapting the smoothing length based on real-time RSI conditions — allowing the T3 to “breathe” with market volatility. This dynamic length makes the curve faster in trending moves and smoother during consolidations.
To help traders visualize volatility and directional momentum, adaptive volatility bands are plotted around the T3 line, with visual crossover markers and a dynamic info panel on the chart. It’s ideal for identifying trend shifts, spotting momentum surges, and adapting strategy execution to the pace of the market.
HOIW IT WORKS
At its core, this indicator fuses two ideas:
The T3 Moving Average — a 6-stage recursively smoothed exponential average created by Tim Tillson , designed to reduce lag without sacrificing smoothness. It uses a volume factor to control curvature.
A Dynamic Length Engine — powered by the RSI. When RSI is low (market oversold), the T3 becomes shorter and more reactive. When RSI is high (overbought), the T3 becomes longer and smoother. This creates a feedback loop between price momentum and trend sensitivity.
// Step 1: Adaptive length via RSI
rsi = ta.rsi(src, rsiLen)
rsi_scale = 1 - rsi / 100
len = math.round(minLen + (maxLen - minLen) * rsi_scale)
pine_ema(src, length) =>
alpha = 2 / (length + 1)
sum = 0.0
sum := na(sum ) ? src : alpha * src + (1 - alpha) * nz(sum )
sum
// Step 2: T3 with adaptive length
e1 = pine_ema(src, len)
e2 = pine_ema(e1, len)
e3 = pine_ema(e2, len)
e4 = pine_ema(e3, len)
e5 = pine_ema(e4, len)
e6 = pine_ema(e5, len)
c1 = -v * v * v
c2 = 3 * v * v + 3 * v * v * v
c3 = -6 * v * v - 3 * v - 3 * v * v * v
c4 = 1 + 3 * v + v * v * v + 3 * v * v
t3 = c1 * e6 + c2 * e5 + c3 * e4 + c4 * e3
The result: an evolving trend line that adapts to market tempo in real-time.
KEY FEATURES
⯁ RSI-Based Adaptive Smoothing
The length of the T3 calculation dynamically adjusts between a Min Length and Max Length , based on the current RSI.
When RSI is low → the T3 shortens, tracking reversals faster.
When RSI is high → the T3 stretches, filtering out noise during euphoria phases.
Displayed length is shown in a floating table, colored on a gradient between min/max values.
⯁ T3 Calculation (Tim Tillson Method)
The script uses a 6-stage EMA cascade with a customizable Volume Factor (v) , as designed by Tillson (1998) .
Formula:
T3 = c1 * e6 + c2 * e5 + c3 * e4 + c4 * e3
This technique gives smoother yet faster curves than EMAs or DEMA/Triple EMA.
⯁ Visual Trend Direction & Transitions
The T3 line changes color dynamically:
Color Up (default: blue) → bullish curvature
Color Down (default: orange) → bearish curvature
Plot fill between T3 and delayed T3 creates a gradient ribbon to show momentum expansion/contraction.
Directional shift markers (“🞛”) are plotted when T3 crosses its own delayed value — helping traders spot trend flips or pullback entries.
⯁ Adaptive Volatility Bands
Optional upper/lower bands are plotted around the T3 line using a user-defined volatility window (default: 100).
Bands widen when volatility rises, and contract during compression — similar to Bollinger logic but centered on the adaptive T3.
Shaded band zones help frame breakout setups or mean-reversion zones.
⯁ Dynamic Info Table
A live stats panel shows:
Current adaptive length
Maximum smoothing (▲ MaxLen)
Minimum smoothing (▼ MinLen)
All values update in real time and are color-coded to match trend direction.
HOW TO USE
Use T3 crossovers to detect trend transitions, especially during periods of volatility compression.
Watch for volatility contraction in the bands — breakouts from narrow band periods often precede trend bursts.
The adaptive smoothing length can also be used to assess current market tempo — tighter = faster; wider = slower.
CONCLUSION
RSI-Adaptive T3 modernizes one of the most elegant smoothing algorithms in technical analysis with intelligent RSI responsiveness and built-in volatility bands. It gives traders a cleaner read on trend health, directional shifts, and expansion dynamics — all in a visually efficient package. Perfect for scalpers, swing traders, and algorithmic modelers alike, it delivers advanced logic in a plug-and-play format.

[itradesize] ICT Opening range
This indicator automatically annotates the opening ranges of the AM and PM sessions. It should be used on the 1-minute timeframe , although you can check and build a further models when using a 2-3-4 or even 5-minute timeframe. You can customize this under the settings tab.
Additionally, it includes features such as standard deviations and the initial fair value gap presented. Everything is based on what ICT said in his algorithmic timing video.
The algorithm will continue to adjust prices higher or lower until it reaches a predetermined target price. This process will occur within specific time frames: the last 10 minutes before the hour and the first 10 minutes after a new hour begins.
For the AM session opening range, this is from 9:30 to 10:00 , and for the PM session, it's from 13:30 to 14:00 . Defining these ranges allows us to identify the first presented fair value gaps there, as the algorithm is designed to leave these signatures for smart money. This process of time-based delivery precision repeats every day. You can build a whole New York model on this.
It's important to journal and backtest your results results. If the market breaks the opening range on either side and there is evident liquidity, it is highly likely that it will pursue that liquidity.
However, before doing so, the market should retrace back to the first fair value gap if it hasn’t already occurred or back to the 0.75 or 0.5 level of the range at maximum.
When does this happen? Typically, when a macro event occurs— for example, during the lunch macro from 11:30 to 12:00 . In most cases, you can expect a retracement during lunch macro. If the market retraces beyond these levels, there is a higher probability that the expected scenario will not play out.
The algorithm primarily refers to the 30-minute opening range each time. The standard deviation levels can be used to establish algorithmic delivery targets and anticipate another run after the PM session opening range has occurred. The AM session often helps determine the likely direction of movement after the PM session range concludes.
The PM macro runs from 15:15 to 15:45 . At this time, the market will typically operate within the narrative that is currently underway.
Quantify [Trading Model] | FractalystNote: In this description, "TM" refers to Trading Model (not trademark) and "EM" refers to Entry Model
What’s the indicator’s purpose and functionality?
You know how to identify market bias but always struggle with figuring out the best exit method, or even hesitating to take your trades?
I've been there. That's why I built this solution—once and for all—to help traders who know the market bias but need a systematic and quantitative approach for their entries and trade management.
A model that shows you real-time market probabilities and insights, so you can focus on execution with confidence—not doubt or FOMO.
How does this Quantify differentiate from Quantify ?
Have you managed to code or even found an indicator that identifies the market bias for you, so you don’t have to manually spend time analyzing the market and trend?
Then that’s exactly why you might need the Quantify Trading Model.
With the Trading Model (TM) version, the script automatically uses your given bias identification method to determine the trend (bull vs bear and neutral), detect the bias, and provide instant insight into the trades you could’ve taken.
To avoid complications from consecutive signals, it uses a kNN machine learning algorithm that processes market structure and probabilities to predict the best future patterns.
(You don’t have to deal with any complexity—it’s all taken care of for you.)
Quantify TM uses the k-Nearest Neighbors (kNN) machine learning algorithm to learn from historical market patterns and adapt to changing market structures. This means it can recognize similar market conditions from the past and apply those lessons to current trading decisions.
On the other hand, Quantify EM requires you to manually select your directional bias. It then focuses solely on generating entry signals based on that pre-determined bias.
While the entry model version (EM) uses your manual bias selection to determine the trend, it then provides insights into trades you could’ve taken and should be taking.
Trading Model (TM)
- Uses `input.source()` to incorporate your personal methodology for identifying market bias
- Automates everything—from bias detection to entry and exit decisions
- Adapts to market bias changes through kNN machine learning optimization
- Reduces human intervention in trading decisions, limiting emotional interference
Entry Model (EM)
- Focuses specifically on optimizing entry points within your pre-selected directional bias
- Requires manual input for determining market bias
- Provides entry signals without automating alerts or bias rules
Can the indicator be applied to any market approach/trading strategy?
Yes, if you have clear rules for identifying the market bias, then you can code your bias detection and then use the input.source() user input to retrieve the direction from your own indicator, then the Quantify uses machine-learning identify the best setups for you.
Here's an example:
//@version=6
indicator('Moving Averages Bias', overlay = true)
// Input lengths for moving averages
ma10_length = input.int(10, title = 'MA 10 Length')
ma20_length = input.int(20, title = 'MA 20 Length')
ma50_length = input.int(50, title = 'MA 50 Length')
// Calculate moving averages
ma10 = ta.sma(close, ma10_length)
ma20 = ta.sma(close, ma20_length)
ma50 = ta.sma(close, ma50_length)
// Identify bias
var bias = 0
if close > ma10 and close > ma20 and close > ma50 and ma10 > ma20 and ma20 > ma50
bias := 1 // Bullish
bias
else if close < ma10 and close < ma20 and close < ma50 and ma10 < ma20 and ma20 < ma50
bias := -1 // Bearish
bias
else
bias := 0 // Neutral
bias
// Plot the bias
plot(bias, title = 'Identified Bias', color = color.blue,display = display.none)
Once you've created your custom bias indicator, you can integrate it with Quantify :
- Add your bias indicator to your chart
- Open the Quantify settings
- Set the Bias option to "Auto"
- Select your custom indicator as the bias source
The machine learning algorithms will then analyze historical price action and identify optimal setups based on your defined bias parameters. Performance statistics are displayed in summary tables, allowing you to evaluate effectiveness across different timeframes.
Can the indicator be used for different timeframes or trading styles?
Yes, regardless of the timeframe you’d like to take your entries, the indicator adapts to your trading style.
Whether you’re a swing trader, scalper, or even a position trader, the algorithm dynamically evaluates market conditions across your chosen timeframe.
How Quantify Helps You Trade Profitably?

What Entry Models are used in Quantify Trading Model version?
The Quantify Trading Model utilizes two primary entry models to identify high-probability trade setups:
Breakout Entry Model
- Identifies potential trade entries when price breaks through significant swing highs and swing lows
- Captures momentum as price moves beyond established trading ranges
- Particularly effective in trending markets when combined with the appropriate bias detection
- Optimized by machine learning to filter false breakouts based on historical performance
Fractals Entry Model
- Utilizes fractal patterns to identify potential reversal or continuation points
- Also uses swing levels to determine optimal entry locations
- Based on the concept that market structure repeats across different timeframes
- Identifies local highs and lows that form natural entry points
- Enhanced by machine learning to recognize the most profitable fractal formations
- These entry models work in conjunction with your custom bias indicator to ensure trades are taken in the direction of the overall market trend. The machine learning component analyzes historical performance of these entry types across different market conditions to optimize entry timing and signal quality.
How Does This Indicator Identify Market Structure?
1. Swing Detection
• The indicator identifies key swing points on the chart. These are local highs or lows where the price reverses direction, forming the foundation of market structure.
2. Structural Break Validation
• A structural break is flagged when a candle closes above a previous swing high (bullish) or below a previous swing low (bearish).
• Break Confirmation Process:
To confirm the break, the indicator applies the following rules:
• Valid Swing Preceding the Break: There must be at least one valid swing point before the break.
3. Numeric Labeling
• Each confirmed structural break is assigned a unique numeric ID starting from 1.
• This helps traders track breaks sequentially and analyze how the market structure evolves over time.
4. Liquidity and Invalidation Zones
• For every confirmed structural break, the indicator highlights two critical zones:
1. Liquidity Zone (LIQ): Represents the structural liquidity level.
2. Invalidation Zone (INV): Acts as Invalidation point if the structure fails to hold.
How does the trailing stop-loss work? what are the underlying calculations?
A trailing stoploss is a dynamic risk management tool that moves with the price as the market trend continues in the trader’s favor. Unlike a fixed take profit, which stays at a set level, the trailing stoploss automatically adjusts itself as the market moves, locking in profits as the price advances.
In Quantify, the trailing stoploss is enhanced by incorporating market structure liquidity levels (explain above). This ensures that the stoploss adjusts intelligently based on key price levels, allowing the trader to stay in the trade as long as the trend remains intact, while also protecting profits if the market reverses.
What is the Kelly Criterion, and how does it work in Quantify?
The Kelly Criterion is a mathematical formula used to determine the optimal position size for each trade, maximizing long-term growth while minimizing the risk of large drawdowns. It calculates the percentage of your portfolio to risk on a trade based on the probability of winning and the expected payoff.
Quantify integrates this with user-defined inputs to dynamically calculate the most effective position size in percentage, aligning with the trader’s risk tolerance and desired exposure.
How does Quantify use the Kelly Criterion in practice?
Quantify uses the Kelly Criterion to optimize position sizing based on the following factors:
1. Confidence Level: The model assesses the confidence level in the trade setup based on historical data and sample size. A higher confidence level increases the suggested position size because the trade has a higher probability of success.
2. Max Allowed Drawdown (User-Defined): Traders can set their preferred maximum allowed drawdown, which dictates how much loss is acceptable before reducing position size or stopping trading. Quantify uses this input to ensure that risk exposure aligns with the trader’s risk tolerance.
3. Probabilities: Quantify calculates the probabilities of success for each trade setup. The higher the probability of a successful trade (based on historical price action and liquidity levels), the larger the position size suggested by the Kelly Criterion.

FAQ
Q: Does the screener work on other exchanges besides Binance?
A: No, it's designed specifically for Binance USDT Perpetual Futures pairs. Binance offers the highest liquidity and trading volume in the crypto derivatives market, making it ideal for technical analysis. The extensive range of trading pairs and reliable data streams help ensure more accurate signals and analysis. Using a single high-liquidity exchange also helps avoid inconsistencies that could arise from aggregating data across multiple platforms with varying liquidity levels.
Q: What's the minimum timeframe required?
A: The screener requires a minimum 1D (daily) timeframe. This requirement ensures that the technical analysis has sufficient data points for reliable signal generation. Lower timeframes can produce more noise and false signals, while daily timeframes help filter out market noise and identify stronger trends.
Q: Why are some social metrics showing "NaN"?
A: "NaN" (Not a Number) appears when cryptocurrencies don't have associated LunarCrush data. This typically occurs with newer tokens or those with lower market caps. The technical analysis remains fully functional regardless of social metric availability, as these are complementary data points.
Q: How often are signals updated?
A: Signals update with each new candle on the selected timeframe (1D, 2D, or 1W). For example, on the default 2D setting, signals are recalculated every two days as new candles form. This helps reduce noise while maintaining timely analysis of market conditions.
Q: Can I add spot trading pairs?
A: No, the screener is optimized for Binance USDT perpetual futures pairs for data consistency and analysis purposes. While spot and perpetual prices typically align closely due to arbitrage, using a single data source (Binance) and contract type (USDT perpetual) ensures uniform data quality and analysis across all pairs. This standardization helps maintain reliable technical analysis and signal generation.
Q: How many coins can I add to my custom list?
A: Users can add up to 10 custom symbols to their watchlist. This limit is designed to maintain optimal performance while allowing focused monitoring of specific assets. The custom list complements the predefined categories that cover over 300 pairs.
Q: What determines signal confidence levels?
A: Signal confidence is calculated through a weighted algorithm that considers multiple factors: trend strength (Hull MA, DMI/ADX), momentum indicators (RSI, SRSI), volatility measurements (RVI, ATR, BB), volume analysis (OBV, volume trends), and price action patterns. Higher confidence levels indicate stronger alignment across these factors.
Q: Are signals guaranteed to work?
A: No. Signals are analytical tools based on historical and current market data, not guaranteed predictions. They should be used as one component of a comprehensive trading strategy that includes proper risk management, position sizing, and additional confirmation factors. Past performance does not guarantee future results.
Q: Why does the screener need higher timeframes?
A: Higher timeframes (1D minimum) provide several benefits: reduced market noise, more reliable technical signals, better trend identification, and lower likelihood of false signals. They also align better with institutional trading patterns and allow for a more thorough analysis of market conditions across multiple indicators.

Finite Difference - Backward (mcbw_)In calculus there exists a 'derivative', which simply just measures the difference between two points on a curve. For well behaved mathematical functions there are infinitely many points and so there exists a derivative at every point. Where there are infinitely many points in a curve that curve is called 'continuous'. Continuous curves are very nice to deal with since each point on it exists almost exactly where its neighbors are. However, if the curve does not have infinitely many points on it, but instead has a finite number of points on it, that curve is called 'discrete' instead of continuous. Taking the derivative of discrete curves is much trickier business since there are none of the mathematical conveniences that a continuous offers. In the real world everything we measure is a discrete curve, including Price (since we measure it a finite number of times, aka each candlestick)!
The branch of Discrete Mathematics has found an approach to measure the derivative along a discrete curve, that approach is aptly called " Finite Difference ". To get a more accurate approximation of a discrete derivative, the finite difference approach uses weighted combinations of neighboring points. The most common type of finite difference is a 'central' difference, this uses a combination of points before and after the point of interest to approximate the discrete derivative. This is great for historical analysis but is not of much use for trading algorithms since it technically means using future prices to calculate the derivative of the current point. Instead we can use a less common variant called a ' Backwards Difference ' that only uses a combination of points before the current one to help approximate the current derivative.
In this script you can choose the " Order " of your derivative and the " Accuracy " of its approximation. This script is for educational purposes for folks building trading algorithms. Many trading algorithms often have an element of seeing how much Price has changed from the previous candle to the current candle. This approach is the lowest accuracy derivative possible, and using the backwards finite differences, made available for the first time on TradingView (!!), algorithms that use derivatives can now have higher orders of accuracy!

Trading IQ - Razor IQIntroducing TradingIQ's first dip buying/shorting all-in-one trading system: Razor IQ.
Razor IQ is an exclusive trading algorithm developed by TradingIQ, designed to trade upside/downside price dips of varying significance in trending markets. By integrating artificial intelligence and IQ Technology, Razor IQ analyzes historical and real-time price data to construct a dynamic trading system adaptable to various asset and timeframe combinations.
Philosophy of Razor IQ
Razor IQ operates on a single premise: Trends must retrace, and these retracements offer traders an opportunity to join in the overarching trend. At some point traders will enter against a trend in aggregate and traders in profitable positions entered during the trend will scale out. When occurring simultaneously, a trend will retrace against itself, offering an opportunity for traders not yet in the trend to join in the move and continue the trend.
Razor IQ is designed to work straight out of the box. In fact, its simplicity requires just a few user settings to manage output, making it incredibly straightforward to manage.
Long Limit Order Stop Loss and Minimum ATR TP/SL are the only settings that manage the performance of Razor IQ!
Traders don’t have to spend hours adjusting settings and trying to find what works best - Razor IQ handles this on its own.
Key Features of Razor IQ
Self-Learning Retracement Detection
Employs AI and IQ Technology to identify notable price dips in real-time.
AI-Generated Trading Signals
Provides retracement trading signals derived from self-learning algorithms.
Comprehensive Trading System
Offers clear entry and exit labels.
Performance Tracking
Records and presents trading performance data, easily accessible for user analysis.
Self-Learning Trading Exits
Razor IQ learns where to exit positions.
Long and Short Trading Capabilities
Supports both long and short positions to trade various market conditions.
How It Works
Razor IQ operates on a straightforward heuristic: go long during the retracement of significant upside price moves and go short during the retracement of significant downside price moves.
IQ Technology, TradingIQ's proprietary AI algorithm, defines what constitutes a “trend” and a “retracement” and what’s considered a tradable dip buying/shorting opportunity. For Razor IQ, this algorithm evaluates all historical trends and retracements, how much trends generally retrace and how long trends generally persist. For instance, the "dip" following an uptrend is measured and learned from, including the significance of the identified trend level (how long it has been active, how much price has increased, etc). By analyzing these patterns, Razor IQ adapts to identify and trade similar future retracements and trends.
In simple terms, Razor IQ clusters previous trend and retracement data in an attempt to trade similar price sequences when they repeat in the future. Using this knowledge, it determines the optimal, current price level where joining in the current trend (during a retracement) has a calculated chance of not stopping out before trend continuation.
For long positions, Razor IQ enters using a market order at the AI-identified long entry price point. If price closes beneath this level a market order will be placed and a long position entered. Of course, this is how the algorithm trades, users can elect to use a stop-limit order amongst other order types for position entry. After the position is entered TP1 is placed (identifiable on the price chart). TP1 has a twofold purpose:
Acts as a legitimate profit target to exit 50% of the position.
Once TP1 is achieved, a stop-loss order is immediately placed at breakeven, and a trailing stop loss controls the remainder of the trade. With this, so long as TP1 is achieved, the position will not endure a loss. So long as price continues to uptrend, Razor IQ will remain in the position.
For short positions, Razor IQ provides an AI-identified short entry level. If price closes above this level a market order will be placed and a short position entered. Again, this is how the algorithm trades, users can elect to use a stop-limit order amongst other order types for position entry. Upon entry Razor IQ implements a TP order and SL order (identifiable on the price chart).
Downtrends, in most markets, usually operate differently than uptrends. With uptrends, price usually increases at a modest pace with consistency over an extended period of time. Downtrends behave in an opposite manner - price decreases rapidly for a much shorter duration.
With this observation, the long dip entry heuristic differs slightly from the short dip entry heuristic.
The long dip entry heuristic specializes in identifying larger, long-term uptrends and entering on retracement of the uptrends. With a dedicated trailing stop loss, so long as the uptrend persists, Razor IQ will remain in the position.
The short dip entry heuristic specializes in identifying sharp, significant downside price moves, and entering short on upside volatility during these moves. A fixed stop loss and profit target are implemented for short positions - no trailing stop is used.
As a trading system, Razor IQ exits all TP orders using a limit order, with all stop losses exited as stop market orders.
What Classifies As a Tradable Dip?
For Razor IQ, tradable price dips are not manually set but are instead learned by the system. What qualifies as an exploitable price dip in one market might not hold the same significance in another. Razor IQ continuously analyzes historical and current trends (if one exists), how far price has moved during the trend, the duration of the trend, the raw-dollar price move of price dips during trends, and more, to determine which future price retracements offer a smart chance to join in any current price trend.
The image above illustrates the Razor Line Long Entry point.
The green line represents the Long Retracement Entry Point.
The blue upper line represents the first profit target for the trade.
The blue lower line represents the trailing stop loss start point for the long position.
The position is entered once price closes below the green line.
The green Razor Lazor long entry point will only appear during uptrends.
The image above shows a long position being entered after the Long Razor Lazor was closed beneath.
Green arrows indicate that the strategy entered a long position at the highlighted price level.
Blue arrows indicate that the strategy exited a position, whether at TP1, the initial stop loss, or at the trailing stop.
Blue lines above the entry price indicate the TP1 level for the current long trade. Blue lines below the current price indicate the initial stop loss price.
If price reaches TP1, a stop loss will be immediately placed at breakeven, and the in-built trailing stop will determine the future exit price.
A blue line (similar to the blue line shown for TP1) will trail price and correspond to the trailing stop price of the trade.
If the trailing stop is above the breakeven stop loss, then the trailing stop will be hit before the breakeven stop loss, which means the remainder of the trade will be exited at a profit.
If the breakeven stop loss is above the trailing stop, then the breakeven stop loss will be hit first. In this case, the remainder of the position will be exited at breakeven.
The image above shows the trailing stop price, represented by a blue line, and the breakeven stop loss price, represented by a pink line, used for the long position!
You can also hover over the trade labels to get more information about the trade—such as the entry price and exit price.
The image above exemplifies Razor IQ's output when a downtrend is active.
When a downtrend is active, Razor IQ will switch to "short mode". In short mode, Razor IQ will display a neon red line. This neon red line indicates the Razor Lazor short entry point. When price closes above the red Razor Lazor line a short position is entered.
The image above shows Razor IQ during an active short position.
The image above shows Razor IQ after completing a short trade.
Red arrows indicate that the strategy entered a short position at the highlighted price level.
Blue arrows indicate that the strategy exited a position, whether at the profit target or the fixed stop loss.
Blue lines indicate the profit target level for the current trade when below price. and blue lines above the current price indicate the stop loss level for the short trade.
Short traders do not utilize a trailing stop - only a fixed profit target and fixed stop loss are used.
You can also hover over the trade labels to get more information about the trade—such as the entry price and exit price.
Minimum Profit Target And Stop Loss
The Minimum ATR Profit Target and Minimum ATR Stop Loss setting control the minimum allowed profit target and stop loss distance. On most timeframes users won’t have to alter these settings; however, on very-low timeframes such as the 1-minute chart, users can increase these values so gross profits exceed commission.
After changing either setting, Razor IQ will retrain on historical data - accounting for the newly defined minimum profit target or stop loss.
AI Direction
The AI Direction setting controls the trade direction Razor IQ is allowed to take.
“Trade Longs” allows for long trades.
“Trade Shorts” allows for short trades.
Verifying Razor IQ’s Effectiveness
Razor IQ automatically tracks its performance and displays the profit factor for the long strategy and the short strategy it uses. This information can be found in the table located in the top-right corner of your chart showing.
This table shows the long strategy profit factor and the short strategy profit factor.
The image above shows the long strategy profit factor and the short strategy profit factor for Razor IQ.
A profit factor greater than 1 indicates a strategy profitably traded historical price data.
A profit factor less than 1 indicates a strategy unprofitably traded historical price data.
A profit factor equal to 1 indicates a strategy did not lose or gain money when trading historical price data.
Using Razor IQ
While Razor IQ is a full-fledged trading system with entries and exits - manual traders can certainly make use of its on chart indications and visualizations.
The hallmark feature of Razor IQ is its ability to signal an acceptable dip entry opportunity - for both uptrends and downtrends. Long entries are often signaled near the bottom of a retracement for an uptrend; short entries are often signaled near the top of a retracement for a downtrend.
Razor IQ will always operate on exact price levels; however, users can certainly take advantage of Razor IQ's trend identification mechanism and retracement identification mechanism to use as confluence with their personally crafted trading strategy.
Of course, every trend will reverse at some point, and a good dip buying/shorting strategy will often trade the reversal in expectation of the prior trend continuing (retracement). It's important not to aggressively filter retracement entries in hopes of avoiding an entry when a trend reversal finally occurs, as this will ultimately filter out good dip buying/shorting opportunities. This is a reality of any dip trading strategy - not just Razor IQ.
Of course, you can set alerts for all Razor IQ entry and exit signals, effectively following along its systematic conquest of price movement.
AiTrend Pattern Matrix for kNN Forecasting (AiBitcoinTrend)The AiTrend Pattern Matrix for kNN Forecasting (AiBitcoinTrend) is a cutting-edge indicator that combines advanced mathematical modeling, AI-driven analytics, and segment-based pattern recognition to forecast price movements with precision. This tool is designed to provide traders with deep insights into market dynamics by leveraging multivariate pattern detection and sophisticated predictive algorithms.
👽 Core Features
Segment-Based Pattern Recognition
At its heart, the indicator divides price data into discrete segments, capturing key elements like candle bodies, high-low ranges, and wicks. These segments are normalized using ATR-based volatility adjustments to ensure robustness across varying market conditions.
AI-Powered k-Nearest Neighbors (kNN) Prediction
The predictive engine uses the kNN algorithm to identify the closest historical patterns in a multivariate dictionary. By calculating the distance between current and historical segments, the algorithm determines the most likely outcomes, weighting predictions based on either proximity (distance) or averages.
Dynamic Dictionary of Historical Patterns
The indicator maintains a rolling dictionary of historical patterns, storing multivariate data for:
Candle body ranges, High-low ranges, Wick highs and lows.
This dynamic approach ensures the model adapts continuously to evolving market conditions.
Volatility-Normalized Forecasting
Using ATR bands, the indicator normalizes patterns, reducing noise and enhancing the reliability of predictions in high-volatility environments.
AI-Driven Trend Detection
The indicator not only predicts price levels but also identifies market regimes by comparing current conditions to historically significant highs, lows, and midpoints. This allows for clear visualizations of trend shifts and momentum changes.
👽 Deep Dive into the Core Mathematics
👾 Segment-Based Multivariate Pattern Analysis
The indicator analyzes price data by dividing each bar into distinct segments, isolating key components such as:
Body Ranges: Differences between the open and close prices.
High-Low Ranges: Capturing the full volatility of a bar.
Wick Extremes: Quantifying deviations beyond the body, both above and below.
Each segment contributes uniquely to the predictive model, ensuring a rich, multidimensional understanding of price action. These segments are stored in a rolling dictionary of patterns, enabling the indicator to reference historical behavior dynamically.
👾 Volatility Normalization Using ATR
To ensure robustness across varying market conditions, the indicator normalizes patterns using Average True Range (ATR). This process scales each component to account for the prevailing market volatility, allowing the algorithm to compare patterns on a level playing field regardless of differing price scales or fluctuations.
👾 k-Nearest Neighbors (kNN) Algorithm
The AI core employs the kNN algorithm, a machine-learning technique that evaluates the similarity between the current pattern and a library of historical patterns.
Euclidean Distance Calculation:
The indicator computes the multivariate distance across four distinct dimensions: body range, high-low range, wick low, and wick high. This ensures a comprehensive and precise comparison between patterns.
Weighting Schemes: The contribution of each pattern to the forecast is either weighted by its proximity (distance) or averaged, based on user settings.
👾 Prediction Horizon and Refinement
The indicator forecasts future price movements (Y_hat) by predicting logarithmic changes in the price and projecting them forward using exponential scaling. This forecast is smoothed using a user-defined EMA filter to reduce noise and enhance actionable clarity.
👽 AI-Driven Pattern Recognition
Dynamic Dictionary of Patterns: The indicator maintains a rolling dictionary of N multivariate patterns, continuously updated to reflect the latest market data. This ensures it adapts seamlessly to changing market conditions.
Nearest Neighbor Matching: At each bar, the algorithm identifies the most similar historical pattern. The prediction is based on the aggregated outcomes of the closest neighbors, providing confidence levels and directional bias.
Multivariate Synthesis: By combining multiple dimensions of price action into a unified prediction, the indicator achieves a level of depth and accuracy unattainable by single-variable models.
Visual Outputs

Bayesian Price Projection Model [Pinescriptlabs]📊 Dynamic Price Projection Algorithm 📈
This algorithm combines **statistical calculations**, **technical analysis**, and **Bayesian theory** to forecast a future price while providing **uncertainty ranges** that represent upper and lower bounds. The calculations are designed to adjust projections by considering market **trends**, **volatility**, and the historical probabilities of reaching new highs or lows.
Here’s how it works:
🚀 Future Price Projection
A dynamic calculation estimates the future price based on three key elements:
1. **Trend**: Defines whether the market is predisposed to move up or down.
2. **Volatility**: Quantifies the magnitude of the expected change based on historical fluctuations.
3. **Time Factor**: Uses the logarithm of the projected period (`proyeccion_dias`) to adjust how time impacts the estimate.
🧠 **Bayesian Probabilistic Adjustment**
- Conditional probabilities are calculated using **Bayes' formula**:
\
This models future events using conditional information:
- **Probability of reaching a new all-time high** if the price is trending upward.
- **Probability of reaching a new all-time low** if the price is trending downward.
- These probabilities refine the future price estimate by considering:
- **Higher volatility** increases the likelihood of hitting extreme levels (highs/lows).
- **Market trends** influence the expected price movement direction.
🌟 **Volatility Calculation**
- Volatility is measured using the **ATR (Average True Range)** indicator with a 14-period window. This reflects the average amplitude of price fluctuations.
- To express volatility as a percentage, the ATR is normalized by dividing it by the closing price and multiplying it by 200.
- Volatility is then categorized into descriptive levels (e.g., **Very Low**, **Low**, **Moderate**, etc.) for better interpretation.
---
🎯 **Deviation Limits (Upper and Lower)**
- The upper and lower limits form a **projected range** around the estimated future price, providing a framework for uncertainty.
- These limits are calculated by adjusting the ATR using:
- A user-defined **multiplier** (`factor_desviacion`).
- **Bayesian probabilities** calculated earlier.
- The **square root of the projected period** (`proyeccion_dias`), incorporating the principle that uncertainty grows over time.
🔍 **Interpreting the Model**
This can be seen as a **dynamic probabilistic model** that:
- Combines **technical analysis** (trends and ATR).
- Refines probabilities using **Bayesian theory**.
- Provides a **visual projection range** to help you understand potential future price movements and associated uncertainties.
⚡ Whether you're analyzing **volatile markets** or confirming **bullish/bearish scenarios**, this tool equips you with a robust, data-driven approach! 🚀

📊 Algoritmo de Proyección de Precio Dinámico 📈
Este algoritmo combina **cálculos estadísticos**, **análisis técnico** y **la teoría de Bayes** para proyectar un precio futuro, junto con rangos de **incertidumbre** que representan los límites superior e inferior. Los cálculos están diseñados para ajustar las proyecciones considerando la **tendencia del mercado**, **volatilidad** y las probabilidades históricas de alcanzar nuevos máximos o mínimos.
Aquí se explica su funcionamiento:
🚀 **Proyección de Precio Futuro**
Se realiza un cálculo dinámico del precio futuro estimado basado en tres elementos clave:
1. **Tendencia**: Define si el mercado tiene predisposición a subir o bajar.
2. **Volatilidad**: Determina la magnitud del cambio esperado en función de las fluctuaciones históricas.
3. **Factor de Tiempo**: Usa el logaritmo del período proyectado (`proyeccion_dias`) para ajustar cómo el tiempo afecta la estimación.
🧠 **Ajuste Probabilístico con la Teoría de Bayes**
- Se calculan probabilidades condicionales mediante la fórmula de **Bayes**:
\
Esto permite modelar eventos futuros considerando información condicional:
- **Probabilidad de alcanzar un nuevo máximo histórico** si el precio sube.
- **Probabilidad de alcanzar un nuevo mínimo histórico** si el precio baja.
- Estas probabilidades ajustan la estimación del precio futuro considerando:
- **Mayor volatilidad** aumenta la probabilidad de alcanzar niveles extremos (máximos/mínimos).
- **La tendencia del mercado** afecta la dirección esperada del movimiento del precio.
🌟 **Cálculo de Volatilidad**
- La volatilidad se mide usando el indicador **ATR (Average True Range)** con un período de 14 velas. Este indicador refleja la amplitud promedio de las fluctuaciones del precio.
- Para obtener un valor porcentual, el ATR se normaliza dividiéndolo por el precio de cierre y multiplicándolo por 200.
- Además, se clasifica esta volatilidad en categorías descriptivas (e.g., **Muy Baja**, **Baja**, **Moderada**, etc.) para facilitar su interpretación.
🎯 **Límites de Desviación (Superior e Inferior)**
- Los límites superior e inferior representan un **rango proyectado** en torno al precio futuro estimado, proporcionando un marco para la incertidumbre.
- Estos límites se calculan ajustando el ATR según:
- Un **multiplicador** definido por el usuario (`factor_desviacion`).
- Las **probabilidades condicionales** calculadas previamente.
- La **raíz cuadrada del período proyectado** (`proyeccion_dias`), lo que incorpora el principio de que la incertidumbre aumenta con el tiempo.
---
🔍 **Interpretación del Modelo**
Este modelo se puede interpretar como un **modelo probabilístico dinámico** que:
- Integra **análisis técnico** (tendencias y ATR).
- Ajusta probabilidades utilizando **la teoría de Bayes**.
- Proporciona un **rango de proyección visual** para ayudarte a entender los posibles movimientos futuros del precio y su incertidumbre.
⚡ Ya sea que estés analizando **mercados volátiles** o confirmando **escenarios alcistas/bajistas**, ¡esta herramienta te ofrece un enfoque robusto y basado en datos! 🚀
TradingIQ - Counter Strike IQIntroducing "Counter Strike IQ" by TradingIQ
Counter Strike IQ is an exclusive trading algorithm developed by TradingIQ, designed to trade upside/downside breakouts of varying significance. By integrating artificial intelligence and IQ Technology, Counter Strike IQ analyzes historical and real-time price data to construct a dynamic trading system adaptable to various asset and timeframe combinations.
Philosophy of Counter Strike IQ
Counter Strike IQ operates on a single premise: Support and resistance levels cannot hold forever. At some point either side must break for the underlying asset to exhibit trends; otherwise, prices would be confined to an infinitely narrowing range.
Counter Strike IQ is designed to work straight out of the box. In fact, its simplicity requires just four user settings to manage output, making it incredibly straightforward to manage.
Minimum ATR Profit, Minimum ATR Stop, EMA Filter and EMA Filter Length are the only settings that manage the performance of Counter Strike IQ!
Traders don’t have to spend hours adjusting settings and trying to find what works best - Counter Strike IQ handles this on its own.
Key Features of Counter Strike IQ
Self-Learning Breakout Detection
Employs AI and IQ Technology to identify notable breakouts in real-time.
AI-Generated Trading Signals
Provides breakout trading signals derived from self-learning algorithms.
Comprehensive Trading System
Offers clear entry and exit labels.
Performance Tracking
Records and presents trading performance data, easily accessible for user analysis.
Self-Learning Trading Exits
Counter Strike IQ learns where to exit positions.
Long and Short Trading Capabilities
Supports both long and short positions to trade various market conditions.
Strike Channel
The Strike Channel represents what Counter Strike IQ considers a tradable long opportunity or a tradable short opportunity. The Strike Channel is dynamic and adjusts from chart to chart.
IQ Graph Gradient
Introduces the IQ Graph Gradient, designed to classify extreme values in price on a grand scale.
How It Works
Counter Strike IQ operates on a straightforward heuristic: go long during significant upside price moves that break established resistance levels and go short during significant downside price moves that break established support levels.
IQ Technology, TradingIQ's proprietary AI algorithm, defines what constitutes a “significant price move” and what’s considered a tradable breakout. For Counter Strike IQ, this algorithm evaluates all historical support/resistance breaks and any subsequent breakouts. For instance, the price move following up to a breakout is measured and learned from, including the significance of the identified support/resistance level (how long it’s been active, how far price moved away from it, etc). By analyzing these patterns, Counter Strike IQ adapts to identify and trade similar future breakout sequences.
In simple terms, Counter Strike IQ learns from violations of historical support/resistance levels to identify potential entry points at currently established support/resistance levels. Using this knowledge, it determines the optimal, current support/resistance price level where a breakout has a higher chance of occurring.
For long positions, Counter Strike IQ places a stop-market order at the AI-identified resistance point. If price violates this level a market order will be placed and a long position entered. Of course, this is how the algorithm trades, users can elect to use a stop-limit order amongst other order types for position entry. After the position is entered TP1 is placed (identifiable on the price chart). TP1 has a twofold purpose:
Acts as a legitimate profit target to exit 50% of the position.
Once TP1 is closed over, the initial stop loss is converted to a trailing stop, and the long position remains active so long as price continues to uptrend.
For short positions, Counter Strike IQ places a stop-market order at the AI-identified support point. If price violates this level a market order will be placed and a short position entered. Again, this is how the algorithm trades, users can elect to use a stop-limit order amongst other order types for position entry. Upon entry TP1 is placed (identifiable on the price chart). TP1 has a twofold purpose:
Acts as a legitimate profit target to exit 50% of the position.
Once TP1 is closed over, the initial stop loss is converted to a trailing stop, and the short position remains active so long as price continues to downtrend.
As a trading system, Counter Strike IQ exits TP1 using a limit order, with all stop losses exited as stop market orders.
What Classifies As a Tradable Upside Breakout or Tradable Downside Breakout?
For Counter Strike IQ, tradable price breakouts are not manually set but are instead learned by the system. What qualifies as a significant upside or downside breakout in one market might not hold the same significance in another. Counter Strike IQ continuously analyzes historical and current support/resistance levels, how far price has extended from those levels, the raw-dollar price move leading up to a violation of those levels, their longevity, and more, to determine which future levels have a higher chance of breaking out when retested!
The image above illustrates the Strike Channel and explains the corresponding prices and levels
The green upper line represents the Long Breakout Point.
The pink lower line represents the Short Breakout Point.
Any price between the two deviation points is considered “Acceptable”.
The image above shows a long position being entered after the Upside Breakout Point was reached.
Green arrows indicate that the strategy entered a long position at the highlighted price level.
Blue arrows indicate that the strategy exited a position, whether at TP1, the initial stop loss, or at the trailing stop.
Blue lines indicate the TP1 level for the current trade. Red lines indicate the initial stop loss price.
If price closes above TP1, the initial stop loss will be replaced with a trailing stop. A blue line (similar to the blue line shown for TP1) will trail price and correspond to the trailing stop price of the trade.
The image above shows the trailing stop price, represented by a blue line, used for the long position!
You can also hover over the trade labels to get more information about the trade—such as the entry price and exit price.
The image above shows a short position being entered after the Downside Breakout Point was reached.
Red arrows indicate that the strategy entered a short position at the highlighted price level.
Blue arrows indicate that the strategy exited a position, whether at TP1, the initial stop loss, or at the trailing stop.
Blue lines indicate the TP1 level for the current trade. Red lines indicate the initial stop loss price.
If price closes below TP1, the initial stop loss will be replaced with a trailing stop. A blue line (similar to the blue line shown for TP1) will trail price and correspond to the trailing stop price of the trade.
The image above shows the trailing stop price, represented by a blue line, used for the short position!
You can also hover over the trade labels to get more information about the trade—such as the entry price and exit price.
IQ Gradient Graph
The IQ Gradient Graph provides a macro characterization of extreme prices.
The lower macro extremity of the IQ Gradient Graph is colored green, while the upper macro extremity is colored red.
Minimum Profit Target And Stop Loss
The Minimum ATR Profit Target and Minimum ATR Stop Loss setting control the minimum allowed profit target and stop loss distance. On most timeframes users won’t have to alter these settings; however, on very-low timeframes such as the 1-minute chart, users can increase these values so gross profits exceed commission.
After changing either setting, Counter Strike IQ will retrain on historical data - accounting for the newly defined minimum profit target or stop loss.
AI Direction
The AI Direction setting controls the trade direction Counter Strike IQ is allowed to take.
“Trade Longs” allows for long trades.
“Trade Shorts” allows for short trades.
EMA Filter
The EMA Filter setting controls whether the AI should implement an EMA trading filter. Simply, if the EMA Filter is active, long trades can only initiate if price is trading above the user-defined EMA. Conversely, short trades can only initiate if price is trading below the user-defined EMA.
The image above shows the EMA Filter in action!
Verifying Counter Strike IQ’s Effectiveness
Counter Strike IQ automatically tracks its performance and displays the profit factor for the long strategy and the short strategy it uses. This information can be found in the table located in the top-right corner of your chart showing.
This table shows the long strategy profit factor and the short strategy profit factor.
The image above shows the long strategy profit factor and the short strategy profit factor for Counter Strike IQ.
A profit factor greater than 1 indicates a strategy profitably traded historical price data.
A profit factor less than 1 indicates a strategy unprofitably traded historical price data.
A profit factor equal to 1 indicates a strategy did not lose or gain money when trading historical price data.
Using Counter Strike IQ
While Counter Strike IQ is a full-fledged trading system with entries and exits - manual traders can certainly make use of its on chart indications and visualizations.
The hallmark feature of Counter Strike IQ is its ability to signal a breakout near its origin point. Long entries are often signaled near the start of a large upside price move; short entries are often signaled near the start of a large downside price move.
For live analysis, the Strike Channel serves as a valuable tool for identifying breakout points.
The further price moves toward the Upside Breakout Point (green), the stronger the indication that price might breakout to the upside. Conversely, the deeper price reaches toward the Downside Breakout Point (red), the stronger the indication that price might breakout to the downside.
Of course, should buying or selling pressure stall, price may fail to breakout at the identified breakout level. This is a natural consequence of any breakout trading strategy!
With this information at hand, traders can quickly switch between charts and timeframes to identify optimized areas of interest.
