The Vostro Indicator by KIVANÇ fr3762The VOSTRO indicator is a trend indicator that automatically provides buying and selling signals. The indicator marks in a window the potential turning points. The indicator is recommended for scalping.
The Vostro indicator determines the overbought zones (value greater than +80) and the oversold zones (less than the -80 level)
BUY signal: The Vostro curve moves below the -80 level and forms a trough – Turnaround of the upward trend
SELL signal: The Vostro curve moves above the +80 level and forms a peak – Downward trend

Advanced PSAR v1 [wm]A port off Dennis Meyers Advance PSAR outlined in Stocks and Commodities V13:4
The shape, slope and speed of the SAR is controlled by three parameters: the starting acceleration factor (AF), the increment that the AF can change when a new price high or low is made, and the maximum AF. Because of the way the SAR is calculated, the shape of the SAR curve resembles a parabola - hence its name.
Most software packages only allow the user to vary the AF increment and the AF maximum, fixing the starting AF at 0.02. This restriction hampers the trend-following abilities of the parabolic.
Frequently as the SAR hugs the price curve, it is penetrated by a price bar by a minuscule amount, causing the SAR to generate an opposite signal. The price then immediately turns around and resumes going in the direction it was going before this penetration occurred, causing a costly whipsaw loss.
Many of the whipsaw losses are caused by noise or randomness in the price series. Thus, if the SAR is to represent the trend of a real price series, it must have the capability to ignore penetrations of noise level amounts. To this end, I have modified the parabolic SAR formula to include a variable that allows the SAR not to reverse unless penetrated by a defined amount. This new parameter is defined as ‘XO Increment’ for crossover increment
This version is configured for pips. If using on other assets with much larger values should be used. Also note the starting values have not been optimised. Should users of this script find good values please comment and share with the community if you could
ALMA Trend DirectionHere is a very simple tool that uses the Arnaud Legoux Moving Average(ALMA). The ALMA is based on a normal distribution and is a reliable moving average due to its ability to reduce lag while still keeping a high degree of smoothness.
Input Options:
-Offset : Value in range {0,1} that adjusts the curve of the Gaussian Distribution. A higher value will result in higher responsiveness but lower smoothness. A lower value will mean higher smoothness but less responsiveness.
-Length : The lookback window for the ALMA calculation.
-Sigma : Defines the sharpe of the curve coefficients.
I find that this indicator is best used with a longer length and a 4 Hour timeframe. Overall, its purpose is to help identify the direction of a trend and determine whether a security is in an uptrend or a downtrend. For this purpose, it is best to use a lower offset value since we are looking to identify long-term, significant price movement rather than small fluctuations.
The Chart:
The ALMA is plotted as the aqua and pink alternating line. It is aqua when bullish and pink when bearish.
The low price for each candle is then compared to the ALMA. If the low is greater than the ALMA, then there is a bullish trend and the area between the candles and ALMA is filled green. The area between the ALMA and candles is filled red when the low price is less than the ALMA.
The difference between the slow ALMA and candles can reveal a lot about the current market state. If there is a significant green gap between the two, then we know that there is a significant uptrend taking place. On the other hand, a large red gap would indicate a significant downtrend. Similarly, if the gap between the two is narrowing and the ALMA line switches from aqua to pink, then we know that a reversal could be coming shortly.
~Happy Trading~
Double ALMAIncludes fast and slow Arnaud Legoux Moving Averages (ALMA). ALMA is a moving average based on a Gaussian(normal) distribution that reduces lag while still retaining smoothness.
Input Options:
-Offset : Value in range {0,1} that adjusts the curve of the Gaussian Distribution. A higher value will result in higher responsiveness but lower smoothness. A lower value will mean higher smoothness but less responsiveness.
-Lengths : The lookback for each ALMA calculation.
-Sigma : Defines the sharpe of the curve coefficients.
The slow ALMA is the thickest red and green alternating line that indicates bullish or bearish movement. When slow ALMA is bullish, the graph's background changes to green. When the slow ALMA is bearish, the background is red.
The fast ALMA uses a smaller lookback and is more responsive than the slow ALMA as a result of the shorter length and higher default offset parameter.
The two dotted lines represent (slowALMA +/- 1.25 * stdev(slowALMA, slowALMA period *2)).
The indicator bases its buy and sell signals based on the trend identified by the slow ALMA and the fast ALMA's crossings of the standard deviation bands.
Comes with pre-set buy and sell alerts.
Modified Gann HiLo ActivatorIntroduction
The gann hilo activator is a trend indicator developed by Robert Krausz published into W. D. Gann Treasure Discovered: Simple Trading Plans for Stocks & Commodities . This indicator crate a trailing stop aiming to show the direction of the trend.
This indicator is fairly easy to compute and dont require lot of skills to understand. First we calculate the simple moving average of both price high and price low, when the close price is higher than the moving average of the price high the indicator return the moving average of the price low, else the indicator return the moving average of the price high if the close price is lower than the moving average of the price low.
My indicator add a different calculation method in order to avoid whipsaw trades as well as adding significance to the moving average length. A Median method has been added to provide more robustness.
The Indicator
The indicator is a simple trailing stop aiming to show the direction of the trend. The indicator use a different source instead of the price high/low for its calculation. The first method is the "SMA" method which like the classic hilo indicator use a simple moving average for the calculation of the indicator.
Sma Method with length = 25
The "Median" use a moving median instead of a simple moving average, this provide more robustness.
Median Method with length = 25
The shape is less curved and the indicator can sometimes avoid whipsaw with high's length periods.
Mult Parameter
The mult parameter is a parameter set to be lower or equal to 1 and greater or equal to 0. High values allow the indicator to be far from the price thus avoiding whipsaw trades, lower ones lower the distance from the price. A mult parameter of 0.1 approximate the original hilo indicator.
In blue the indicator with mult = 0.1 and in radical red the original hilo activator.
Conclusion
The modifications allow more control over the indicator as well as adding more robustness while the original one is destined to fail when market price is more complex.

XPloRR MA-Trailing-Stop StrategyXPloRR MA-Trailing-Stop Strategy
Long term MA-Trailing-Stop strategy with Adjustable Signal Strength to beat Buy&Hold strategy
None of the strategies that I tested can beat the long term Buy&Hold strategy. That's the reason why I wrote this strategy.
Purpose: beat Buy&Hold strategy with around 10 trades. 100% capitalize sold trade into new trade.
My buy strategy is triggered by the fast buy EMA (blue) crossing over the slow buy SMA curve (orange) and the fast buy EMA has a certain up strength.
My sell strategy is triggered by either one of these conditions:
the EMA(6) of the close value is crossing under the trailing stop value (green) or
the fast sell EMA (navy) is crossing under the slow sell SMA curve (red) and the fast sell EMA has a certain down strength.
The trailing stop value (green) is set to a multiple of the ATR(15) value.
ATR(15) is the SMA(15) value of the difference between the high and low values.
The scripts shows a lot of graphical information:
The close value is shown in light-green. When the close value is lower then the buy value, the close value is shown in light-red. This way it is possible to evaluate the virtual losses during the trade.
the trailing stop value is shown in dark-green. When the sell value is lower then the buy value, the last color of the trade will be red (best viewed when zoomed)(in the example, there are 2 trades that end in gain and 2 in loss (red line at end))
the EMA and SMA values for both buy and sell signals are shown as a line
the buy and sell(close) signals are labeled in blue
How to use this strategy?
Every stock has it's own "DNA", so first thing to do is tune the right parameters to get the best strategy values voor EMA , SMA, Strength for both buy and sell and the Trailing Stop (#ATR).
Look in the strategy tester overview to optimize the values Percent Profitable and Net Profit (using the strategy settings icon, you can increase/decrease the parameters)
Then keep using these parameters for future buy/sell signals only for that particular stock.
Do the same for other stocks.
Important : optimizing these parameters is no guarantee for future winning trades!
Here are the parameters:
Fast EMA Buy: buy trigger when Fast EMA Buy crosses over the Slow SMA Buy value (use values between 10-20)
Slow SMA Buy: buy trigger when Fast EMA Buy crosses over the Slow SMA Buy value (use values between 30-100)
Minimum Buy Strength: minimum upward trend value of the Fast SMA Buy value (directional coefficient)(use values between 0-120)
Fast EMA Sell: sell trigger when Fast EMA Sell crosses under the Slow SMA Sell value (use values between 10-20)
Slow SMA Sell: sell trigger when Fast EMA Sell crosses under the Slow SMA Sell value (use values between 30-100)
Minimum Sell Strength: minimum downward trend value of the Fast SMA Sell value (directional coefficient)(use values between 0-120)
Trailing Stop (#ATR): the trailing stop value as a multiple of the ATR(15) value (use values between 2-20)
Example parameters for different stocks (Start capital: 1000, Order=100% of equity, Period 1/1/2005 to now) compared to the Buy&Hold Strategy(=do nothing):
BEKB(Bekaert): EMA-Buy=12, SMA-Buy=44, Strength-Buy=65, EMA-Sell=12, SMA-Sell=55, Strength-Sell=120, Stop#ATR=20

Stefan Krecher: Jeddingen DivergenceThe main idea is to identify a divergence between momentum and price movement. E.g. if the momentum is rising but price is going down - this is what we call a divergence. The divergence will be calculated by comparing the direction of the linear regression curve of the price with the linear regression curve of momentum.
A bearish divergence can be identified by a thick red line, a bullish divergence by a green line.
When there is a divergence, it is likeley that the current trend will change it's direction.
Looking at the chart, there are three divergences that need to get interpreted:
1) bearish divergence, RSI is overbought but MACD does not clearly indicate a trend change. Right after the divergence, price and momentum are going up. No clear signal for a sell trade
2) bearish divergence, RSI still overbought, MACD histogram peaked, MACD crossed the signal line, price and momentum are going down. Very clear constellation for a sell trade.
3) two bullish diverences, RSI is oversold, MACD crossover near the end of the second divergence, price and momentum started rising. Good constellation for a buy trade. Could act as exit signal for the beforementioned sell trade.
More information on the Jeddingen Divergence is available here: www.forexpython.com
Power Law Correlation Indicator 2.0 The Power Law Correlation Indicator is an attempt to chart when a stock/currency/futures contract goes parabolic forming a upward or downward curve that accelerates according to power laws.
I've read about power laws from Sornette Diedler ( www.marketcalls.in ). And I think the theory is a good one.
The idea behind this indicator is that it will rise to 1.0 as the curve resembles a parabolic up or down swing. When it is below zero, the stock will flatten out.
There are many ways to use this indicator. One way I am testing it out is in trading Strangles or Straddle option trades. When this indicator goes below zero and starts to turn around, it means that it has flattened out. This is like a squeeze indicator. (see the TTM squeeze indicator).
Since this indicator goes below zero and the squeeze plays tend to be mean-reverting; then its a great time to put on a straddle/strangle.
Another way to use it is to think of it in terms of trend strength. Think of it as a kind of ADX, that measures the trend strength. When it is rising, the trend is strong; when it is dropping, the trend is weak.
Lastly I think this indicator needs some work. I tried to put the power (x^n) function into it but my coding skill is limited. I am hoping that Lazy Bear or Ricardo Santos can do it some justice.
Also I think that if we can figure out how to do other power law graphs, perhaps we can plot them together on one indicator.
So far I really like this one for finding Strangle spots. So check it out.

Bitcoin Power Law [LuxAlgo]The Bitcoin Power Law tool is a representation of Bitcoin prices first proposed by Giovanni Santostasi, Ph.D. It plots BTCUSD daily closes on a log10-log10 scale, and fits a linear regression channel to the data.
This channel helps traders visualise when the price is historically in a zone prone to tops or located within a discounted zone subject to future growth.
🔶 USAGE
Giovanni Santostasi, Ph.D. originated the Bitcoin Power-Law Theory; this implementation places it directly on a TradingView chart. The white line shows the daily closing price, while the cyan line is the best-fit regression.
A channel is constructed from the linear fit root mean squared error (RMSE), we can observe how price has repeatedly oscillated between each channel areas through every bull-bear cycle.
Excursions into the upper channel area can be followed by price surges and finishing on a top, whereas price touching the lower channel area coincides with a cycle low.
Users can change the channel areas multipliers, helping capture moves more precisely depending on the intended usage.
This tool only works on the daily BTCUSD chart. Ticker and timeframe must match exactly for the calculations to remain valid.
🔹 Linear Scale
Users can toggle on a linear scale for the time axis, in order to obtain a higher resolution of the price, (this will affect the linear regression channel fit, making it look poorer).
🔶 DETAILS
One of the advantages of the Power Law Theory proposed by Giovanni Santostasi is its ability to explain multiple behaviors of Bitcoin. We describe some key points below.
🔹 Power-Law Overview
A power law has the form y = A·xⁿ , and Bitcoin’s key variables follow this pattern across many orders of magnitude. Empirically, price rises roughly with t⁶, hash-rate with t¹² and the number of active addresses with t³.
When we plot these on log-log axes they appear as straight lines, revealing a scale-invariant system whose behaviour repeats proportionally as it grows.
🔹 Feedback-Loop Dynamics
Growth begins with new users, whose presence pushes the price higher via a Metcalfe-style square-law. A richer price pool funds more mining hardware; the Difficulty Adjustment immediately raises the hash-rate requirement, keeping profit margins razor-thin.
A higher hash rate secures the network, which in turn attracts the next wave of users. Because risk and Difficulty act as braking forces, user adoption advances as a power of three in time rather than an unchecked S-curve. This circular causality repeats without end, producing the familiar boom-and-bust cadence around the long-term power-law channel.
🔹 Scale Invariance & Predictions
Scale invariance means that enlarging the timeline in log-log space leaves the trajectory unchanged.
The same geometric proportions that described the first dollar of value can therefore extend to a projected million-dollar bitcoin, provided no catastrophic break occurs. Institutional ETF inflows supply fresh capital but do not bend the underlying slope; only a persistent deviation from the line would falsify the current model.
🔹 Implications
The theory assigns scarcity no direct role; iterative feedback and the Difficulty Adjustment are sufficient to govern Bitcoin’s expansion. Long-term valuation should focus on position within the power-law channel, while bubbles—sharp departures above trend that later revert—are expected punctuations of an otherwise steady climb.
Beyond about 2040, disruptive technological shifts could alter the parameters, but for the next order of magnitude the present slope remains the simplest, most robust guide.
Bitcoin behaves less like a traditional asset and more like a self-organising digital organism whose value, security, and adoption co-evolve according to immutable power-law rules.
🔶 SETTINGS

Trend Impulse Channels (Zeiierman)█ Overview
Trend Impulse Channels (Zeiierman) is a precision-engineered trend-following system that visualizes discrete trend progression using volatility-scaled step logic. It replaces traditional slope-based tracking with clearly defined “trend steps,” capturing directional momentum only when price action decisively confirms a shift through an ATR-based trigger.
This tool is ideal for traders who prefer structured, stair-step progression over fluid curves, and value the clarity of momentum-based bands that reveal breakout conviction, pullback retests, and consolidation zones. The channel width adapts automatically to market volatility, while the step logic filters out noise and false flips.
⚪ The Structural Assumption
This indicator is built on a core market structure observation:
After each strong trend impulse, the market typically enters a “cooling-off” phase as profit-taking occurs and counter-trend participants enter. This often results in a shallow pullback or stall, creating a slight negative slope in an uptrend (or a positive slope in a downtrend).
These “cooling-off” phases don’t reverse the trend — they signal temporary pressure before the next leg continues. By tracking trend steps discretely and filtering for this behavior, Trend Impulse Channels helps traders align with the rhythm of impulse → pause → impulse.
█ How It Works
⚪ Step-Based Trend Engine
At the heart of this tool is a dynamic step engine that progresses only when price crosses a predefined ATR-scaled trigger level:
Trigger Threshold (× ATR) – Defines how far price must break beyond the current trend state to register a new trend step.
Step Size (Volatility-Guided) – Each trend continuation moves the trend line in discrete units, scaling with ATR and trend persistence.
Trend Direction State – Maintains a +1/-1 internal bias to support directional filters and step tracking.
⚪ Volatility-Adaptive Channel
Each step is wrapped inside a dynamic envelope scaled to current volatility:
Upper and Lower Bands – Derived from ATR and band multipliers to expand/contract as volatility changes.
⚪ Retest Signal System
Optional signal markers show when price re-tests the upper or lower band:
Upper Retest → Pullback into resistance during a bearish trend.
Lower Retest → Pullback into support during a bullish trend.
⚪ Trend Step Signals
Circular markers can be shown to mark each time the trend steps forward, making it easy to identify structurally significant moments of continuation within a larger trend.
█ How to Use
⚪ Trend Alignment
Use the Trend Line and Step Markers to visually confirm the direction of momentum. If multiple trend steps occur in sequence without reversal, this typically signals strong conviction and trend persistence.
⚪ Retest-Based Entries
Wait for pullbacks into the channel and monitor for triangle retest signals. When used in confluence with trend direction, these offer high-quality continuation setups.
⚪ Breakouts
Look for breakouts beyond the upper or lower band after a longer period of pause. For higher likelihood of success, look for breakouts in the direction of the trend.
█ Settings
Trigger Threshold (× ATR) - Defines how far price must move to register a new trend step. Controls sensitivity to trend flips.
Max Step Size (× ATR) - Caps how far each trend step can extend. Prevents runaway step expansion in high volatility.
Band Multiplier (× ATR) - Expands the upper and lower channels. Controls how much breathing room the bands allow.
Trend Hold (bars) - Minimum number of bars the trend must remain active before allowing a flip. Helps reduce noise.
Filter by Trend - Restrict retest signals to those aligned with the current trend direction.

Best EMA FinderThis script, Best EMA Finder, is based on the same original logic as the Best SMA Finder I published previously. Although it was not the initial goal of the project, several users asked for an EMA version, so here it is.
The script scans a wide range of Exponential Moving Average (EMA) lengths, from 10 to 500, and identifies the one that historically delivered the most robust performance on the current chart. The choice to stop at 500 is deliberate: beyond that point, EMA curves tend to flatten and converge, adding processing time without meaningful differences in signals or outcomes.
Each EMA is evaluated using a custom robustness score:
Profit Factor × log(Number of Trades) × sqrt(Win Rate)
Only EMA lengths that exceed a user-defined minimum number of trades are considered valid. Among these, the one with the highest robustness score is selected and displayed on the chart.
A table summarizes the results:
- Best EMA length
- Total number of trades
- Profit Factor
- Win Rate
- Robustness Score
You can adjust:
- Strategy type: Long Only or Buy & Sell
- Minimum number of trades required
- Table visibility
This script is designed for analysis and optimization only. It does not execute trades or handle position sizing. Only one open trade per direction is considered at a time.
Quadruple EMA (QEMA)The Quadruple Exponential Moving Average (QEMA) is an advanced technical indicator that extends the concept of lag reduction beyond TEMA (Triple Exponential Moving Average) to a fourth order. By applying a sophisticated four-stage EMA cascade with optimized coefficient distribution, QEMA provides the ultimate evolution in EMA-based lag reduction techniques.
Unlike traditional compund moving averages like DEMA and TEMA, QEMA implements a progressive smoothing system that strategically distributes alphas across four EMA stages and combines them with balanced coefficients (4, -6, 4, -1). This approach creates an indicator that responds extremely quickly to price changes while still maintaining sufficient smoothness to be useful for trading decisions. QEMA is particularly valuable for traders who need the absolute minimum lag possible in trend identification.
▶️ **Core Concepts**
Fourth-order processing: Extends the EMA cascade to four stages for maximum possible lag reduction while maintaining a useful signal
Progressive alpha system: Uses mathematically derived ratio-based alpha progression to balance responsiveness across all four EMA stages
Optimized coefficients: Employs calculated weights (4, -6, 4, -1) to effectively eliminate lag while preserving compound signal stability
Numerical stability control: Implements initialization and alpha distribution to ensure consistent results from the first calculation bar
QEMA achieves its exceptional lag reduction by combining four progressive EMAs with mathematically optimized coefficients. The formula is designed to maximize responsiveness while minimizing the overshoot problems that typically occur with aggressive lag reduction techniques. The implementation uses a ratio-based alpha progression that ensures each EMA stage contributes appropriately to the final result.
▶️ **Common Settings and Parameters**
Period: Default: 15| Base smoothing period | When to Adjust: Decrease for extremely fast signals, increase for more stable output
Alpha: Default: auto | Direct control of base smoothing factor | When to Adjust: Manual setting allows precise tuning beyond standard period settings
Source: Default: Close | Data point used for calculation | When to Adjust: Change to HL2 or HLC3 for more balanced price representation
Pro Tip: Professional traders often use QEMA with longer periods than other moving averages (e.g., QEMA(20) instead of EMA(10)) since its extreme lag reduction provides earlier signals even with longer periods.
▶️ **Calculation and Mathematical Foundation**
Simplified explanation:
QEMA works by calculating four EMAs in sequence, with each EMA taking the previous one as input. It then combines these EMAs using balancing weights (4, -6, 4, -1) to create a moving average with extremely minimal lag and high level of smoothness. The alpha factors for each EMA are progressively adjusted using a mathematical ratio to ensure balanced responsiveness across all stages.
Technical formula:
QEMA = 4 × EMA₁ - 6 × EMA₂ + 4 × EMA₃ - EMA₄
Where:
EMA₁ = EMA(source, α₁)
EMA₂ = EMA(EMA₁, α₂)
EMA₃ = EMA(EMA₂, α₃)
EMA₄ = EMA(EMA₃, α₄)
α₁ = 2/(period + 1) is the base smoothing factor
r = (1/α₁)^(1/3) is the derived ratio
α₂ = α₁ × r, α₃ = α₂ × r, α₄ = α₃ × r are the progressive alphas
Mathematical Rationale for the Alpha Cascade:
The QEMA indicator employs a specific geometric progression for its smoothing factors (alphas) across the four EMA stages. This design is intentional and aims to optimize the filter's performance. The ratio between alphas is **r = (1/α₁)^(1/3)** - derived from the cube root of the reciprocal of the base alpha.
For typical smoothing (α₁ < 1), this results in a sequence of increasing alpha values (α₁ < α₂ < α₃ < α₄), meaning that subsequent EMAs in the cascade are progressively faster (less smoothed). This specific progression, when combined with the QEMA coefficients (4, -6, 4, -1), is chosen for the following reasons:
1. Optimized Frequency Response:
Using the same alpha for all EMA stages (as in a naive multi-EMA approach) can lead to an uneven frequency response, potentially causing over-shooting of certain frequencies or creating undesirable resonance. The geometric progression of alphas in QEMA helps to create a more balanced and controlled filter response across a wider range of movement frequencies. Each stage's contribution to the overall filtering characteristic is more harmonized.
2. Minimized Phase Lag:
A key goal of QEMA is extreme lag reduction. The specific alpha cascade, particularly the relationship defined by **r**, is designed to minimize the cumulative phase lag introduced by the four smoothing stages, while still providing effective noise reduction. Faster subsequent EMAs contribute to this reduced lag.
🔍 Technical Note: The ratio-based alpha progression is crucial for balanced response. The ratio r is calculated as the cube root of 1/α₁, ensuring that the combined effect of all four EMAs creates a mathematically optimal response curve. All EMAs are initialized with the first source value rather than using progressive initialization, eliminating warm-up artifacts and providing consistent results from the first bar.
▶️ **Interpretation Details**
QEMA provides several key insights for traders:
When price crosses above QEMA, it signals the beginning of an uptrend with minimal delay
When price crosses below QEMA, it signals the beginning of a downtrend with minimal delay
The slope of QEMA provides immediate insight into trend direction and momentum
QEMA responds to price reversals significantly faster than other moving averages
Multiple QEMA lines with different periods can identify immediate support/resistance levels
QEMA is particularly valuable in fast-moving markets and for short-term trading strategies where speed of signal generation is critical. It excels at capturing the very beginning of trends and identifying reversals earlier than any other EMA-derived indicator. This makes it especially useful for breakout trading and scalping strategies where getting in early is essential.
▶️ **Limitations and Considerations**
Market conditions: Can generate excessive signals in choppy, sideways markets due to its extreme responsiveness
Overshooting: The aggressive lag reduction can create some overshooting during sharp reversals
Calculation complexity: Requires four separate EMA calculations plus coefficient application, making it computationally more intensive
Parameter sensitivity: Small changes in the base alpha or period can significantly alter behavior
Complementary tools: Should be used with momentum indicators or volatility filters to confirm signals and reduce false positives

StochRSI Context EngineThe StochRSI Context Engine is a premium, logic-driven indicator built to provide comprehensive intraday momentum context using multi-timeframe Stochastic RSI analysis. Rather than issuing direct buy or sell signals, the tool is designed to give traders enhanced clarity on trend posture, overbought/oversold conditions, volatility states, and potential momentum reversals. It combines multiple layers of signal processing to deliver an intelligent overview of market conditions in real time.
What it does:
The indicator performs a multi-timeframe evaluation of the Stochastic RSI, sampling values from four customizable timeframes (default: 5m, 15m, 1h, 4h). These values are blended and processed through a series of analytical engines to provide the following:
1. StochRSI Multi-Timeframe Engine
* Computes a smoothed Stochastic RSI value on each selected timeframe.
* Applies user-defined smoothing (SMA, EMA, RMA, or WMA).
* Aggregates these into an average (sRSIavg) for further analysis.
2. Trend and Volatility Engine
* Uses EMA stacking logic (8, 21, 50) to determine directional alignment.
* Calculates linear regression slope for directional bias.
* Assesses volatility using ATR relative to price.
* Derives a trendScore based on EMA alignment, price position, and slope strength.
3. Bias and Slope Analysis
* Measures fast/slow EMA slope differentials to detect bias direction and strength.
* Computes slope deltas and volatility-weighted stacking to score bias conditions.
* Outputs a classification such as strong bullish, moderate bearish, or neutral.
4. Dynamic OB/OS Zone Detection
* Adapts overbought and oversold thresholds based on volatility and trend regime.
* Adjusts the zone boundaries if in a trending or high-volatility environment.
5. Microzone Proximity Detection
* Tracks whether the average StochRSI is approaching key OB/OS thresholds.
* Flags conditions like “Near Overbought,” “Near Oversold,” or “Mid Range.”
6. Velocity and Acceleration Detection
* Measures how quickly StochRSI values are changing.
* Uses delta calculations to gauge the momentum’s thrust or decay.
* Classifies shifts in RSI movement (e.g., flat, slow, fast, or thrusting).
7. Range Expansion / Compression Engine
* Evaluates whether StochRSI values across timeframes are diverging or compressing.
* Identifies regime changes in momentum coherence.
8. Momentum Scoring System
* Calculates a composite score based on bias, slope strength, volatility, and range.
* Labels momentum phases from dormant to full-throttle.
9. Confluence Detection
* Tallies how many of the 4 timeframes are currently overbought or oversold.
* High confluence increases the probability of valid reversal or continuation zones.
10. Support and Resistance Zone Memory
* Tracks and plots previous areas where StochRSI bounced or rejected near zones.
* Stores and updates these zones over time, acting as momentum-based S/R levels.
* Includes a proximity check to cluster zones that are close in value.
11. Divergence Detection Engine
* Detects classic bullish or bearish divergence between price and the aggregated StochRSI.
* Draws lines to show divergence structure and triggers real-time alerts.
12. Smart Background Highlighting
* Shades the background based on whether current StochRSI is in an overbought, oversold, or
neutral zone.
13. Real-Time Dashboard
* Displays trend, bias, confluence count, velocity, divergence state, momentum score, and
more.
* Dynamically updates and is optimized for top-right screen positioning with compact
formatting.
14. Smart Alerts
* Issues alerts for divergence detection and high-confluence reversal conditions.
15. Real-Time Labels on Curves
* Shows the selected timeframes alongside each plotted StochRSI line to clarify source data.
What it’s based on:
* Stochastic RSI as the core input signal, providing normalized momentum across timeframes.
* EMA stacking logic, adapted from institutional trend-following models.
* Volatility normalization using ATR to adapt thresholds in high vs. low volatility environments.
* Slope forecasting using linear regression to infer directional conviction.
* Bias analysis modeled on a composite of EMA distance, alignment, and directional thrust.
* Support/resistance zone memory derived from repeated interaction with dynamic OB/OS thresholds.
* Divergence logic based on localized price and oscillator peaks/troughs.
* Multi-factor confidence scoring, aggregating up to 6 inputs to rate market clarity.

MTF Stochastic RSIOverview: MTF Stochastic RSI
is a momentum-tracking tool that plots the Stochastic RSI oscillator for up to four user-
defined timeframes on a single panel. It provides a compact yet powerful view of how
momentum is aligning or diverging across different timeframes, making it suitable for both
scalpers and swing traders looking for multi-timeframe confirmation.
What it does:
Calculates Stochastic RSI values using the RSI of price as the base input and applies
smoothing for stability.
Aggregates and displays the values for four customizable TF (e.g., 5min, 15min, 1h, 4h).
Highlights potential support and resistance zones in the oscillator space using adaptive zone
logic.
Optionally draws dynamic support/resistance zone lines in the oscillator space based on
historical turning points.
How it works:
Each timeframe uses the same RSI and Stoch calculation settings but runs independently via
the request.security() function.
Stochastic RSI is calculated by first applying the RSI to price, then applying a stochastic
formula on the RSI values, and finally smoothing the %K output.
Adaptive overbought and oversold thresholds adjust based on ATR-based volatility and simple
trend filtering (e.g., price vs EMA).
When a crossover above the oversold zone or a crossunder below the overbought zone
occurs, the script checks for proximity to previously stored zones and either adjusts or
records a new one.
These zones are stored and re-plotted as dotted support/resistance levels within the
oscillator space.
What it’s based on:
The indicator builds upon traditional Stochastic RSI by applying it to multiple timeframes in
parallel.
Zone detection logic is inspired by the idea of oscillator-based support/resistance levels.
Volatility-adjusted thresholds are based on ATR (Average True Range) to make the
overbought/oversold zones responsive to market conditions.
How to use it:
Look for alignment across timeframes (e.g., all four curves pushing into the overbought
region suggests strong trend continuation).
Reversal risk increases when one or more higher timeframes are diverging or showing signs of
cooling while lower timeframes are still extended.
Use the zone lines as soft support/resistance references within the oscillator—retests of
these zones can indicate strong reversal opportunities or continuation confirmation.

Pmax + T3Pmax + T3 is a versatile hybrid trend-momentum indicator that overlays two complementary systems on your price chart:
1. Pmax (EMA & ATR “Risk” Zones)
Calculates two exponential moving averages (Fast EMA & Slow EMA) and plots them to gauge trend direction.
Highlights “risk zones” behind price as a colored background:
Green when Fast EMA > Slow EMA (up-trend)
Red when Fast EMA < Slow EMA (down-trend)
Yellow when EMAs are close (“flat” zone), helping you avoid choppy markets.
You can toggle risk-zone highlighting on/off, plus choose to ignore signals in the yellow (neutral) zone.
2. T3 (Triple-Smoothed EMA Momentum)
Applies three sequential EMA smoothing (the classic “T3” algorithm) to your chosen source (usually close).
Fills the area between successive T3 curves with up/down colors for a clear visual of momentum shifts.
Optional neon-glow styling (outer, mid, inner glows) in customizable widths and transparencies for a striking “cyber” look.
You can highlight T3 movements only when the line is rising (green) or falling (red), or disable movement coloring.
HEMA Trend Levels [AlgoAlpha]OVERVIEW
This script plots two Hull-EMA (HEMA) curves to define a color-coded dynamic trend zone and generate context-aware breakout levels, allowing traders to easily visualize prevailing momentum and identify high-probability breakout retests. The script blends smoothed price tracking with conditional box plotting, delivering both trend-following and mean-reversion signals within one system. It is designed to be simple to read visually while offering nuanced trend shifts and test confirmations.
█ CONCEPTS
The Hull-EMA (HEMA) is a hybrid moving average combining the responsiveness of short EMAs with the smoothness of longer ones. It applies layered smoothing: first by subtracting a full EMA from a half-length EMA (doubling the short EMA's weight), and then by smoothing the result again with the square root of the original length. This process reduces lag while maintaining clarity in direction changes. In this script, two HEMAs—fast and slow—are used to define the trend structure and trigger events when they cross. These crossovers generate "trend shift boxes"—temporary support or resistance zones drawn immediately after trend transitions—to detect price retests in the new direction. When price cleanly retests these levels, the script marks them as confirmations with triangle symbols, helping traders isolate better continuation setups. Color-coded bars further enhance visual interpretation: bullish bars when price is above both HEMAs, bearish when below, and neutral (gray) when indecisive.
█ FEATURES
Bullish and bearish bar coloring based on price and HEMA alignment.
Box plotting at each crossover (bullish or bearish) to create short-term decision zones.
Real-time test detection: price must cleanly test and bounce from box levels to be considered valid.
Multiple alert conditions: crossover alerts, test alerts, and trend continuation alerts.
█ USAGE
Use this indicator on any time frame and asset. Adjust HEMA lengths to match your trading style—shorter lengths for scalping or intraday, longer for swing trading. The shaded area between HEMAs helps visually define the current trend. Watch for crossovers: a bullish crossover plots a green support box just below price, and a bearish one plots a red resistance box just above. These zones act as short-term decision points. When price returns to test a box and confirms with strong rejection (e.g., closes above for bullish or below for bearish), a triangle symbol is plotted. These tests can signal strong trend continuation. For traders looking for clean entries, combining the crossover with a successful retest improves reliability. Alerts can be enabled for all key signals: trend shift, test confirmations, and continuation conditions, making it suitable for automated setups or discretionary traders tracking multiple charts.
Hull Moving Average Adaptive RSI (Ehlers)Hull Moving Average Adaptive RSI (Ehlers)
The Hull Moving Average Adaptive RSI (Ehlers) is an enhanced trend-following indicator designed to provide a smooth and responsive view of price movement while incorporating an additional momentum-based analysis using the Adaptive RSI.
Principle and Advantages of the Hull Moving Average:
- The Hull Moving Average (HMA) is known for its ability to track price action with minimal lag while maintaining a smooth curve.
- Unlike traditional moving averages, the HMA significantly reduces noise and responds faster to market trends, making it highly effective for detecting trend direction and changes.
- It achieves this by applying a weighted moving average calculation that emphasizes recent price movements while smoothing out fluctuations.
Why the Adaptive RSI Was Added:
- The core HMA line remains the foundation of the indicator, but an additional analysis using the Adaptive RSI has been integrated to provide more meaningful insights into momentum shifts.
- The Adaptive RSI is a modified version of the traditional Relative Strength Index that dynamically adjusts its sensitivity based on market volatility.
- By incorporating the Adaptive RSI, the HMA visually represents whether momentum is strengthening or weakening, offering a complementary layer of analysis.
How the Adaptive RSI Influences the Indicator:
- High Adaptive RSI (above 65): The market may be overbought, or bullish momentum could be fading. The HMA turns shades of red, signaling a possible exhaustion phase or potential reversals.
- Neutral Adaptive RSI (around 50): The market is in a balanced state, meaning neither buyers nor sellers are in clear control. The HMA takes on grayish tones to indicate this consolidation.
- Low Adaptive RSI (below 35): The market may be oversold, or bearish momentum could be weakening. The HMA shifts to shades of blue, highlighting potential recovery zones or trend slowdowns.
Why This Combination is Powerful:
- While the HMA excels in tracking trends and reducing lag, it does not provide information about momentum strength on its own.
- The Adaptive RSI bridges this gap by adding a clear visual layer that helps traders assess whether a trend is likely to continue, consolidate, or reverse.
- This makes the indicator particularly useful for spotting trend exhaustion and confirming momentum shifts in real-time.
Best Use Cases:
- Works effectively on timeframes from 1 hour (1H) to 1 day (1D), making it suitable for swing trading and position trading.
- Particularly useful for trading indices (SPY), stocks, forex, and cryptocurrencies, where momentum shifts are frequent.
- Helps identify not just trend direction but also whether that trend is gaining or losing strength.
Recommended Complementary Indicators:
- Adaptive Trend Finder: Helps identify the dominant long-term trend.
- Williams Fractals Ultimate: Provides key reversal points to validate trend shifts.
- RVOL (Relative Volume): Confirms significant moves based on volume strength.
This enhanced HMA with Adaptive RSI provides a powerful, intuitive visual tool that makes trend analysis and momentum interpretation more effective and efficient.

PDF-MA Supertrend [BackQuant]PDF-MA Supertrend
The PDF-MA Supertrend combines the innovative Probability Density Function (PDF) smoothing with the widely popular Supertrend methodology, creating a robust tool for identifying trends and generating actionable trading signals. This indicator is designed to provide precise entries and exits by dynamically adapting to market volatility while visualizing long and short opportunities directly on the chart.
Core Feature: PDF Smoothing
At the foundation of this indicator is the PDF smoothing technique, which applies a Probability Density Function to calculate a smoothed moving average. This method allows the indicator to assign adaptive weights to data points, making it responsive to market changes without overreacting to short-term volatility.
Key parameters include:
Variance: Controls the spread of the PDF weighting. A smaller variance results in sharper responses, while a larger variance smooths out the curve.
Mean: Shifts the PDF’s center, allowing traders to tweak how weights are distributed around the data points.
Smoothing Method: Offers the choice between EMA (Exponential Moving Average) and SMA (Simple Moving Average) for blending the PDF-smoothed data with traditional moving average methods.
By combining these parameters, the PDF smoothing creates a moving average that effectively captures underlying trends.
Supertrend: Adaptive Trend and Volatility Tracking
The Supertrend is a well-known volatility-based indicator that dynamically adjusts to market conditions using the ATR (Average True Range). In this script, the PDF-smoothed moving average acts as the price input, making the Supertrend calculation more adaptive and precise.
Key Supertrend Features:
ATR Period: Determines the lookback period for calculating market volatility.
Factor: Multiplies the ATR to set the distance between the Supertrend and the price. A higher factor creates wider bands, filtering out smaller price movements, while a lower factor captures tighter trends.
Dynamic Direction: The Supertrend flips its direction based on price interactions with the calculated upper and lower bands:
Uptrend : When the price is above the Supertrend, the direction turns bullish.
Downtrend : When the price is below the Supertrend, the direction turns bearish.
This combination of PDF smoothing and Supertrend calculation ensures that trends are detected with greater accuracy, while volatility filters out market noise.
Long and Short Signal Generation
The PDF-MA Supertrend generates actionable trading signals by detecting transitions in the trend direction:
Long Signal (𝕃): Triggered when the trend transitions from bearish to bullish. This is visually represented with a green triangle below the price bars.
Short Signal (𝕊): Triggered when the trend transitions from bullish to bearish. This is marked with a red triangle above the price bars.
These signals provide traders with clear entry and exit points, ensuring they can capitalize on emerging trends while avoiding false signals.
Customizable Visualization Options
The indicator offers a range of visualization settings to help traders interpret the data with ease:
Show Supertrend: Option to toggle the visibility of the Supertrend line.
Candle Coloring: Automatically colors candlesticks based on the trend direction:
Green for long trends.
Red for short trends.
Long and Short Signals (𝕃 + 𝕊): Displays long (𝕃) and short (𝕊) signals directly on the chart for quick identification of trade opportunities.
Line Color Customization: Allows users to customize the colors for long and short trends.
Alert Conditions
To ensure traders never miss an opportunity, the PDF-MA Supertrend includes built-in alerts for trend changes:
Long Signal Alert: Notifies when a bullish trend is identified.
Short Signal Alert: Notifies when a bearish trend is identified.
These alerts can be configured for real-time notifications via SMS, email, or push notifications, making it easier to stay updated on market movements.
Suggested Parameter Adjustments
The indicator’s effectiveness can be fine-tuned using the following guidelines:
Variance:
For low-volatility assets (e.g., indices): Use a smaller variance (1.0–1.5) for smoother trends.
For high-volatility assets (e.g., cryptocurrencies): Use a larger variance (1.5–2.0) to better capture rapid price changes.
ATR Factor:
A higher factor (e.g., 2.0) is better suited for long-term trend-following strategies.
A lower factor (e.g., 1.5) captures shorter-term trends.
Smoothing Period:
Shorter periods provide more reactive signals but may increase noise.
Longer periods offer stability and better alignment with significant trends.
Experimentation is encouraged to find the optimal settings for specific assets and trading strategies.
Trading Applications
The PDF-MA Supertrend is a versatile indicator suited to a variety of trading approaches:
Trend Following : Use the Supertrend line and signals to follow market trends and ride sustained price movements.
Reversal Trading : Spot potential trend reversals as the Supertrend flips direction.
Volatility Analysis : Adjust the ATR factor to filter out minor price fluctuations or capture sharp movements.
Final Thoughts
The PDF-MA Supertrend combines the precision of Probability Density Function smoothing with the adaptability of the Supertrend methodology, offering traders a powerful tool for identifying trends and volatility. With its customizable parameters, actionable signals, and built-in alerts, this indicator is an excellent choice for traders seeking a robust and reliable system for trend detection and entry/exit timing.
