Volatility/Volume ImpactWe often hear statements such as follow the big volume to project possible price movements. Or low volatility is good for trend. How much of it is statistically right for different markets. I wrote this small script to study the impact of Volatility and Volume on price movements.
Concept is as below:
Compare volume with a reference median value. You can also use moving average or other types for this comparison.
If volume is higher than median, increment positive value impact with change in close price. If volume is less than median, then increment negative value impact with change in close price.
With this we derive pvd and nvd which are measure of price change when volume is higher and lower respectively. pvd measures the price change when volume is higher than median whereas nvd measures price change when volume is lower than median.
Calculate correlation of pvd and nvd with close price to see what is impacting the price by higher extent.
Colors are applied to plots which have higher correlation to price movement. For example, if pvd has higher correlation to price movement, then pvd is coloured green whereas nvd is coloured silver. Similarly if nvd has higher correlation to price then nvd is coloured in red whereas pvd is coloured in silver.
Similar calculation also applied for volatility.
With this, you can observe how price change is correlated to high/low volume and volatility.
Let us see some examples on different markets.
Example 1: AMEX:SPY
From the chart snapshot below, it looks evident that SPY always thrive when there is low volatility and LOW VOLUME!!
Example 2: NASDAQ:TSLA
The picture will be different if you look at individual stocks. For Tesla, the price movement is more correlated to high volume (unlike SPY where low volume days define the trend)
Example 3: KUCOIN:BTCUSDT
Unlike stocks and indices, high volatility defined the trend for BTC for long time. It thrived when volatility is more. We can see that high volume is still major influencer in BTC price movements.
Settings are very simple and self explanatory.
Hint: You can also move the indicator to chart overlay for better visualisation of comparison with close price.

Closing MomentumClosing momentum calculates the moving averages of closes and highs vs previous highs plus those of closes and lows vs previous lows to create momentum moving averages. Closes above/below previous highs/lows are weighted more strongly than new high or low wicks above/below a previous highs or lows.
If momentum is up, the background will shade green; brighter is stronger. If momentum is down, likewise with red.
Shifts in momentum are indicated by symbols: triangles indicate a minor shifts, arrows moderate, big arrows major. Likewise, the shade of the symbols indicates strength (darker is stronger).
Using the indicator: long continuous stretches of the same color indicate trend - deeper is stronger. If the shade is lightening or clears and/or if symbols of the other color start appearing, the trend is weakening.
K's Volatility BandsVolatility bands come in all shapes and forms contrary to what is believed. Bollinger bands remain the principal indicator in the volatility bands family. K's Volatility bands is an attempt at optimizing the original bands. Below is the method of calculation:
* We must first start by calculating a rolling measure based on the average between the highest high and the lowest low in the last specified lookback window. This will give us a type of moving average that tracks the market price. The specificity here is that when the market does not make higher highs nor lower lows, the line will be flat. A flat line can also be thought of as a magnet of the price as the ranging property could hint to a further sideways movement.
* The K’s volatility bands assume the worst with volatility and thus will take the maximum volatility for a given lookback period. Unlike the Bollinger bands which will take the latest volatility calculation every single step of time, K’s volatility bands will suppose that we must be protected by the maximum of volatility for that period which will give us from time to time stable support and resistance levels.
Therefore, the difference between the Bollinger bands and K's volatility bands are as follows:
* Bollinger Bands' formula calculates a simple moving average on the closing prices while K's volatility bands' formula calculates the average of the highest highs and the lowest lows.
* Bollinger Bands' formula calculates a simple standard deviation on the closing prices while K's volatility bands' formula calculates the highest standard deviation for the lookback period.
Applying the bands is similar to applying any other volatility bands. We can list the typical strategies below:
* The range play strategy : This is the usual reversal strategy where we buy whenever the price hits the lower band and sell short whenever it hits the upper band.
* The band re-entry strategy : This strategy awaits the confirmation that the price has recognized the band and has shaped a reaction around it and has reintegrated the whole envelope. It may be slightly lagging in nature but it may filter out bad trades.
* Following the trend strategy : This is a controversial strategy that is the opposite of the first one. It assumes that whenever the upper band is surpassed, a buy signal is generated and whenever the lower band is broken, a sell signal is generated.
* Combination with other indicators : The bands can be combined with other technical indicators such as the RSI in order to have more confirmation. This is however no guarantee that the signals will improve in quality.
* Specific strategy on K’s volatility bands : This one is similar to the first range play strategy but it adds the extra filter where the trade has a higher conviction if the median line is flat. The reason for this is that a flat line means that no higher highs nor lower lows have been made and therefore, we may be in a sideways market which is a fertile ground for mean-reversion strategies.
Isolated PivotsThis script identifies potential price reversals at pivot high/low points using sets of 3 candles.
Pivot High: The middle candle must have a higher high and a higher low than the two outer candles.
Pivot Low: The middle candle must have a lower low and a lower high than the two outer candles.
Potential usage: When a market is moving higher in an uptrend, if a pivot low is identified then that might be a sign of price weakness.

CPR_ATR_PIVOTIntroduction
What is so special about this variation of CPR is that it combines three indicators together. It has Central Pivot Range to understand market trend and for taking entry; Average True Range Stop line to identify the stop loss for any trade keeping in view volatility of the instrument; and Standard Pivot Points for profit targets. So overall it combines all essential ingredients for trading in a single indicator.
While CPR and Pivot values will remain fixed, the ATR period and multiple can be changed.
Central Pivot Range: is a useful intraday technical indicator which comprises 3 levels – a Central pivot point (pivot), Top central level (TC), and Bottom central level (BC).
These levels are calculated as follows:
TC = (Pivot – BC) + Pivot
Pivot = (High + Low + Close)/3
BC = (High + Low)/2
The 3 levels are calculated using 3 variables, High, Low, and Close price. When you add CPR levels in a stock’s chart, TC is highest, the pivot is at the center and BC is the lowest level. However, depending on market conditions TC’s value may be lower than BC.
The fundamental idea behind this indicator is that the particular day’s trading range captures everything about the market sentiment, and hence this range can be used to predict the price movement of the following days.
This indicator was first introduced by Mark Fisher in this book “The Logical Trader”. Frank Ochoa added another dimension, central pivot point to this indicator.
Practical Applications:
CPR Breakout:
Any high volume breakout above or below the TC and BC lines respectively indicates a high probability that the movement will continue.
CPR Width
The width of the CPR lines very accurately gives an idea of the expected price movement. If CPR width is narrow, that is the distance between TC and BC lines of CPR is very low, then it indicates a trending market. While if the distance between TC and BC lines is relatively higher it indicates sideways market.
CPR as Support and Resistance
CPR lines can also act as support and resistance. Market may takes support or resistance at the CPR and reverse.
ATR Stop: I am adding another useful indicator known as ATR stop with CPR. Once market takes support and resistance at the CPR, trade can be taken with stoploss under/above (as the case may be) the ATR stop line. It would help in absorbing the intraday volatility in a stock or instrument.
Pivot Points: Pivot points can be taken as target points where partial or full profit (depending upon market conditions and momentum) can be taken.
I hope this indicator would help some traders in taking better trading decisions.

VWAP forex Yesterday Hi/Low update fix This script is an updte fix of an earlier script that stopped functioning when TradingView updated Pine script. This script plots Forex (24 hour session) VWAP, yesterday's high, low, open and close (HLOC),
the day before's HLOC -
Also plots higher timeframe 20 emas

Also signals inside bars (high is less than or equal to the previous bar's high and the low is greater than or equal to the previous low) the : true inside bars have a maroon triangle below the bar as well as a ">" above the bar.
If subsequest bars are inside the last bar before the last true inside bar they also are marked with an ">"
This is probably a slight variation from the way Leaf_West plots the inside bars.
It appears that he marks all bars that are inside the original bar until one a bar has a high or low
outside the original bar. But I would need to see an example on his charts.
The Time Session Glitch and the Fix FX_IDC, COINBASE and BITSTAMP:
The script will correctly default to 1700 hrs to 1700hrs EDT/EST session for FXCM.
Strangely some securities appear to erroneously start their session at 1200 hrs ie. My guess is that they are somehow tied to GMT+0 instead of New York time (GMT+5). See this for yourself by selecting EURUSD using the FXCM exchange (FX:EURUSD) and then EURUSD from the IDC exchange (FX_IDC:EURUSD). The FX-IDC session opening range starts 5 hours before it actually should at 1700 hrs EDT/EST. To correct for this I have implemented an automatic fix (default) and a user selected "5 hour time shift adjust. ment needed on some securities".
There is also a 4 hour time shift button which might be necessary when New York reverts from Eastern Standard Time to Eastern Daylight Time (1 hour difference) in March (and then back again in November). In the default auto adjust mode you will need to select the 1 hour time shift. That is if this glitch still exists at that time.
I have looked at other scripts, other than my own and where the script is available, that need to use information about the opening bar and all have the same time shift issue
COINBASE and BITSTAMP open at 0000 hours GMT. Since I use lines instead of circles or crosses I had to make a small adjustment to plot the lines correctly.
If it needs work let me know.

PCA Regime-Adjusted MomentumSummary
The PCA Regime-Adjusted Momentum (PCA-RAM) is an advanced market analysis tool designed to provide nuanced insights into market momentum and structural stability. It moves beyond traditional indicators by using Principal Component Analysis (PCA) to deconstruct market data into its most essential patterns.
The indicator provides two key pieces of information:
A smoothed momentum signal based on the market's dominant underlying trend.
A dynamic regime filter that gauges the stability and clarity of the market's structure, advising you when to trust or fade the momentum signals.
This allows traders to not only identify potential shifts in momentum but also to understand the context and confidence behind those signals.
Core Concepts & Methodology
The strength of this indicator lies in its sound, data-driven methodology.
1. Principal Component Analysis (PCA)
At its core, the indicator analyzes a rolling window (default 50 periods) of standardized market data (Open, High, Low, Close, and Volume). PCA is a powerful statistical technique that distills this complex, 5-dimensional data into its fundamental, uncorrelated components of variance. We focus on the First Principal Component (PC1), which represents the single most dominant pattern or "theme" driving the market's behavior in the lookback window.
2. The Momentum Signal
Instead of just looking at price, we project the current market data onto this dominant underlying pattern (PC1). This gives us a raw "projection score" that measures how strongly the current bar aligns with the historically dominant market structure. This raw score is then smoothed using two an exponential moving averages (a fast and a slow line) to create a clear, actionable momentum signal, similar in concept to a MACD.
3. The Dynamic Regime Filter
This is arguably the indicator's most powerful feature. It answers the question: "How clear is the current market picture?"
It calculates the Market Concentration Ratio, which is the percentage of total market variance explained by PC1 alone.
A high ratio indicates that the market is moving in a simple, one-dimensional way (e.g., a clear, strong trend).
A low ratio indicates the market is complex, multi-dimensional, and choppy, with no single dominant theme.
Crucially, this filter is dynamic. It compares the current concentration ratio to its own recent average, allowing it to adapt to any asset or timeframe. It automatically learns what "normal" and "choppy" look like for the specific chart you are viewing.
How to Interpret the Indicator
The indicator is displayed in a separate pane with two key visual elements:
The Momentum Lines (White & Gold)
White Line: The "Fast Line," representing the current momentum.
Gold Line: The "Slow Line," acting as the trend confirmation.
Bullish Signal: A crossover of the White Line above the Gold Line suggests a shift to positive momentum.
Bearish Signal: A crossover of the White Line below the Gold Line suggests a shift to negative momentum.
The Regime Filter (Purple & Dark Red Background)
This is your confidence gauge.
Navy Blue Background (High Concentration): The market structure is stable, simple, and trending. Momentum signals are more reliable and should be given higher priority.
Dark Red Background (Low Concentration): The market structure is complex, choppy, or directionless. Momentum signals are unreliable and prone to failure or "whipsaws." This is a signal to be cautious, tighten stops, or potentially stay out of the market.
Potential Trading Strategies
This tool is versatile and can be used in several ways:
1. Primary Signal Strategy
Condition: Wait for the background to turn Purple, confirming a stable, high-confidence regime.
Entry: Take the next crossover signal from the momentum lines (White over Gold for long, White under Gold for short).
Exit/Filter: Consider exiting positions or ignoring new signals when the background turns Navy.
2. As a Confirmation or Filter for Your Existing Strategy
Do you have a trend-following system? Only enable its long and short signals when the PCA-RAM background is Purple.
Do you have a range-trading or mean-reversion system? It might be most effective when the PCA-RAM background is Navy, indicating a lack of a clear trend.
3. Advanced Divergence Analysis
Look for classic divergences between price and the momentum lines. For example, if the price is making a new high, but the Gold Line is making a lower high, it may indicate underlying weakness in the trend, even on a Purple background. This divergence signal is more powerful because it shows that the new price high is not being confirmed by the market's dominant underlying pattern.
Trend Table ZeeZeeMonMulti-Timeframe Trend Indicator
Overview
This indicator identifies trends across multiple higher timeframes and displays them in a widget on the right side of the chart. It serves as an alternative trend-filtering tool, helping traders align with the dominant market direction. Unlike traditional moving average-based trend detection (e.g., price above/below a 200 MA), this indicator assesses whether higher timeframes are genuinely trending by analyzing swing highs and lows.
Trend Definition
Uptrend: Higher highs and higher lows.
Downtrend: Lower highs and lower lows.
A trend reversal occurs when a prior high/low is breached (e.g., in a downtrend, breaking the last high signals an uptrend).
Customization Options
Lookback Period: Adjusts the sensitivity for identifying swing highs/lows (pivot points). A shorter lookback detects more frequent pivots.
Historical Pivot Visibility: Toggle to display past swing highs/lows for verification.
Support/Resistance Lines: Show dynamic levels from recent pivots on higher timeframes. Breaching these lines indicates potential trend changes.
Purpose
Helps traders:
Confirm higher timeframe trends before entering trades.
Monitor proximity to trend reversals.
Fine-tune pivot sensitivity for optimal trend detection.
Note: Works best as a supplementary trend filter alongside other trading strategies.

Combined ATR + VolumeOverview
The Combined ATR + Volume indicator (C-ATR+Vol) is designed to measure both price volatility and market participation by merging the Average True Range (ATR) and trading volume into a single normalized value. This provides traders with a more comprehensive tool than ATR alone, as it highlights not only how much price is moving, but also whether there is sufficient volume behind those moves.
Originality & Utility
Two Key Components
ATR (Average True Range): Measures price volatility by analyzing the range (high–low) over a specified period. A higher ATR often indicates larger price swings.
Volume: Reflects how actively traders are participating in the market. High volume typically indicates strong buying or selling interest.
Normalized Combination
Both ATR and volume are independently normalized to a 0–100 range.
The final output (C-ATR+Vol) is the average of these two normalized values. This makes it easy to see when both volatility and market participation are relatively high.
Practical Use
Above 80: Signifies elevated volatility and strong volume. Markets may experience significant moves.
Around 50–80: Indicates moderate activity. Price swings and volume are neither extreme nor minimal.
Below 50: Suggests relatively low volatility and lower participation. The market may be ranging or consolidating.
This combined approach can help filter out situations where volatility is high but volume is absent—or vice versa—providing a more reliable context for potential breakouts or trend continuations.
Indicator Logic
ATR Calculation
Uses Pine Script’s built-in ta.tr(true) function to measure true range, then smooths it with a user-selected method (RMA, SMA, EMA, or WMA).
Key Input: ATR Length (default 14).
Volume Calculation
Smooths the built-in volume variable using the same selectable smoothing methods.
Key Input: Volume Length (default 14).
Normalization
For each metric (ATR and Volume), the script finds the lowest and highest values over the lookback period and converts them into a 0–100 scale:
normalized value
=(current value−min)(max−min)×100
normalized value= (max−min)(current value−min) ×100
Combined Score
The final plot is the average of Normalized ATR and Normalized Volume. This single value simplifies the process of identifying high-volatility, high-volume conditions.
How to Use
Setup
Add the indicator to your chart.
Adjust ATR Length, Volume Length, and Smoothing to match your preferred time horizon or chart style.
Interpretation
High Values (above 80): The market is experiencing significant price movement with high participation. Potential for strong trends or breakouts.
Moderate Range (50–80): Conditions are active but not extreme. Trend setups may be forming.
Low Values (below 50): Indicates quieter markets with reduced liquidity. Expect ranging or less decisive moves.
Strategy Integration
Use C-ATR+Vol alongside other trend or momentum indicators (e.g., Moving Averages, RSI, MACD) to confirm potential entries/exits.
Combine it with support/resistance or price action analysis for a broader market view.

🔹 Combined ATR + Volume (C-ATR+Vol) 지표 설명
이 인디케이터는 ATR(Average True Range)와 거래량(Volume)을 결합하여 시장의 변동성과 유동성을 동시에 측정하는 지표입니다.
ATR은 가격 변동성의 크기를 나타내며, 거래량은 시장 참여자의 활동 수준을 반영합니다. 보통 높은 ATR은 가격 변동이 크다는 의미이고, 높은 거래량은 시장에서 적극적인 거래가 이루어지고 있음을 나타냅니다.
이 두 지표를 각각 0~100 범위로 정규화한 후, 평균을 구하여 "Combined ATR + Volume (C-ATR+Vol)" 값을 계산합니다.
이를 통해 단순한 가격 변동성뿐만 아니라 거래량까지 고려하여, 더욱 신뢰성 있는 변동성 판단을 할 수 있도록 도와줍니다.
📌 핵심 개념
1️⃣ ATR (Average True Range)란?
시장의 변동성을 측정하는 지표로, 일정 기간 동안의 고점-저점 변동폭을 기반으로 계산됩니다.
ATR이 높을수록 가격 변동이 크며, 낮을수록 횡보장이 지속될 가능성이 큽니다.
하지만 ATR은 방향성을 제공하지 않으며, 단순히 변동성의 크기만을 나타냅니다.
2️⃣ 거래량 (Volume)의 역할
거래량은 시장 참여자의 관심과 유동성을 반영하는 중요한 요소입니다.
높은 거래량은 강한 매수 또는 매도세가 존재함을 의미하며, 낮은 거래량은 시장 참여가 적거나 관심이 줄어들었음을 나타냅니다.
3️⃣ ATR + 거래량의 결합 (C-ATR+Vol)
단순한 ATR 값만으로는 변동성이 커도 거래량이 부족할 수 있으며, 반대로 거래량이 많아도 변동성이 낮을 수 있습니다.
이를 해결하기 위해 ATR과 거래량을 각각 0~100으로 정규화하여 균형 잡힌 변동성 지표를 만들었습니다.
두 지표의 평균값을 계산하여, 가격 변동과 거래량이 동시에 높은지를 측정할 수 있도록 설계되었습니다.
📊 사용법 및 해석
80 이상 → 강한 변동성 구간
가격 변동성이 크고 거래량도 높은 상태
강한 추세가 진행 중이거나 큰 변동이 일어날 가능성이 큼
상승/하락 방향성을 확인한 후 트렌드를 따라가는 전략이 유리
50~80 구간 → 보통 수준의 변동성
가격 움직임이 일정하며, 거래량도 적절한 수준
점진적인 추세 형성이 이루어질 가능성이 있음
시장이 점진적으로 상승 혹은 하락할 가능성이 크므로, 보조지표를 활용하여 매매 타이밍을 결정하는 것이 중요
50 이하 → 낮은 변동성 및 유동성 부족
가격 변동이 적고, 거래량도 낮은 상태
시장이 횡보하거나 조정 기간에 들어갈 가능성이 큼
박스권 매매(지지/저항 활용) 또는 돌파 전략을 고려할 수 있음
💡 활용 방법 및 전략
✅ 1. 트렌드 판단 보조지표로 활용
단독으로 사용하는 것보다는 RSI, MACD, 이동평균선(MA) 등의 지표와 함께 활용하는 것이 효과적입니다.
예를 들어, MACD가 상승 신호를 주고, C-ATR+Vol 값이 80을 초과하면 강한 상승 추세로 해석할 수 있습니다.
✅ 2. 변동성 돌파 전략에 활용
C-ATR+Vol이 80 이상인 구간에서 가격이 특정 저항선을 돌파한다면, 강한 추세의 시작을 의미할 수 있습니다.
반대로, C-ATR+Vol이 50 이하에서 가격이 저항선에 가까워지면 돌파 가능성이 낮아질 수 있습니다.
✅ 3. 시장 참여도와 변동성 확인
단순히 ATR만 높아서는 신뢰하기 어려운 경우가 많습니다. 예를 들어, 급등 후 거래량이 급감하면 상승 지속 가능성이 낮아질 수도 있습니다.
하지만 C-ATR+Vol을 사용하면 거래량이 함께 증가하는지를 확인하여 보다 신뢰할 수 있는 분석이 가능합니다.
🚀 결론
🔹 Combined ATR + Volume (C-ATR+Vol) 인디케이터는 단순한 ATR이 아니라 거래량까지 고려하여 변동성을 측정하는 강력한 도구입니다.
🔹 시장이 큰 움직임을 보일 가능성이 높은 구간을 찾는 데 유용하며, 80 이상일 경우 강한 변동성이 있음을 나타냅니다.
🔹 단독으로 사용하기보다는 보조지표와 함께 활용하여, 트렌드 분석 및 돌파 전략 등에 효과적으로 적용할 수 있습니다.
📌 주의사항
변동성이 크다고 해서 반드시 가격이 급등/급락한다는 보장은 없습니다.
특정한 매매 전략 없이 단순히 이 지표만 보고 매수/매도를 결정하는 것은 위험할 수 있습니다.
시장 상황에 따라 변동성의 의미가 다르게 작용할 수 있으므로, 반드시 다른 보조지표와 함께 활용하는 것이 중요합니다.
🔥 이 지표를 활용하여 시장의 변동성과 거래량을 보다 효과적으로 분석해보세요! 🚀
TrendPredator FOTrendPredator Fakeout Highlighter (FO)
The TrendPredator Fakeout Highlighter is designed to enhance multi-timeframe trend analysis by identifying key market behaviors that indicate trend strength, weakness, and potential reversals. Inspired by Stacey Burke’s trading approach, this tool focuses on trend-following, momentum shifts, and trader traps, helping traders capitalize on high-probability setups.
At its core, this indicator highlights peak formations—anchor points where price often locks in trapped traders before making decisive moves. These principles align with George Douglas Taylor’s 3-day cycle and Steve Mauro’s BTMM method, making the FO Highlighter a powerful tool for reading market structure. As markets are fractal, this analysis works on any timeframe.
How It Works
The TrendPredator FO highlights key price action signals by coloring candles based on their bias state on the current timeframe.
It tracks four major elements:
Breakout/Breakdown Bars – Did the candle close in a breakout or breakdown relative to the last candle?
Fakeout Bars (Trend Close) – Did the candle break a prior high/low and close back inside, but still in line with the trend?
Fakeout Bars (Counter-Trend Close) – Did the candle break a prior high/low, close back inside, and against the trend?
Switch Bars – Did the candle lose/ reclaim the breakout/down level of the last bar that closed in breakout/down, signalling a possible trend shift?
Reading the Trend with TrendPredator FO
The annotations in this example are added manually for illustration.
- Breakouts → Strong Trend
Multiple candles closing in breakout signal a healthy and strong trend.
- Fakeouts (Trend Close) → First Signs of Weakness
Candles that break out but close back inside suggest a potential slowdown—especially near key levels.
- Fakeouts (Counter-Trend Close) → Stronger Reversal Signal
Closing against the trend strengthens the reversal signal.
- Switch Bars → Momentum Shift
A shift in trend is confirmed when price crosses back through the last closed breakout candles breakout level, trapping traders and fuelling a move in the opposite direction.
- Breakdowns → Trend Reversal Confirmed
Once price breaks away from the peak formation, closing in breakdown, the trend shift is validated.
Customization & Settings
- Toggle individual candle types on/off
- Customize colors for each signal
- Set the number of historical candles displayed
Example Use Cases
1. Weekly Template Analysis
The weekly template is a core concept in Stacey Burke’s trading style. FO highlights individual candle states. With this the state of the trend and the developing weekly template can be evaluated precisely. The analysis is done on the daily timeframe and we are looking especially for overextended situations within a week, after multiple breakouts and for peak formations signalling potential reversals. This is helpful for thesis generation before a session and also for backtesting. The annotations in this example are added manually for illustration.
📈 Example: Weekly Template Analysis snapshot on daily timeframe
2. High Timeframe 5-Star Setup Analysis (Stacey Burke "ain't coming back" ACB Template)
This analysis identifies high-probability trade opportunities when daily breakout or down closes occur near key monthly levels mid-week, signalling overextensions and potentially large parabolic moves. Key signals for this are breakout or down closes occurring on a Wednesday. This is helpful for thesis generation before a session and also for backtesting. The annotations in this example are added manually for illustration. Also an indicator can bee seen on this chart shading every Wednesday to identify the signal.
📉 Example: High Timeframe Setup snapshot
3. Low Timeframe Entry Confirmation
FO helps confirm entry signals after a setup is identified, allowing traders to time their entries and exits more precisely. For this the highlighted Switch and/ or Fakeout bars can be highly valuable.

Triple CCI Strategy MFI Confirmed [Skyrexio]Overview
Triple CCI Strategy MFI Confirmed leverages 3 different periods Commodity Channel Index (CCI) indicator in conjunction Money Flow Index (MFI) and Exponential Moving Average (EMA) to obtain the high probability setups. Fast period CCI is used for having the high probability to enter in the direction of short term trend, middle and slow period CCI are used for confirmation, if market now likely in the mid and long-term uptrend. MFI is used to confirm trade with the money inflow/outflow with the high probability. EMA is used as an additional trend filter. Moreover, strategy uses exponential moving average (EMA) to trail the price when it reaches the specific level. More information in "Methodology" and "Justification of Methodology" paragraphs. The strategy opens only long trades.
Unique Features
Dynamic stop-loss system: Instead of fixed stop-loss level strategy utilizes average true range (ATR) multiplied by user given number subtracted from the position entry price as a dynamic stop loss level.
Configurable Trading Periods: Users can tailor the strategy to specific market windows, adapting to different market conditions.
Four layers trade filtering system: Strategy utilizes two different period CCI indicators, MFI and EMA indicators to confirm the signals produced by fast period CCI.
Trailing take profit level: After reaching the trailing profit activation level scrip activate the trailing of long trade using EMA. More information in methodology.
Methodology
The strategy opens long trade when the following price met the conditions:
Fast period CCI shall crossover the zero-line.
Slow and Middle period CCI shall be above zero-lines.
Price shall close above the EMA. Crossover is not obligatory
MFI shall be above 50
When long trade is executed, strategy set the stop-loss level at the price ATR multiplied by user-given value below the entry price. This level is recalculated on every next candle close, adjusting to the current market volatility.
At the same time strategy set up the trailing stop validation level. When the price crosses the level equals entry price plus ATR multiplied by user-given value script starts to trail the price with EMA. If price closes below EMA long trade is closed. When the trailing starts, script prints the label “Trailing Activated”.
Strategy settings
In the inputs window user can setup the following strategy settings:
ATR Stop Loss (by default = 1.75)

User can choose the optimal parameters during backtesting on certain price chart.
Justification of Methodology
Before understanding why this particular combination of indicator has been chosen let's briefly explain what is CCI, MFI and EMA.
The Commodity Channel Index (CCI) is a momentum-based technical indicator that measures the deviation of a security's price from its average price over a specific period. It helps traders identify overbought or oversold conditions and potential trend reversals.
The CCI formula is:
CCI = (Typical Price − SMA) / (0.015 × Mean Deviation)
Typical Price (TP): This is calculated as the average of the high, low, and closing prices for the period.
Simple Moving Average (SMA): This is the average of the Typical Prices over a specific number of periods.
Mean Deviation: This is the average of the absolute differences between the Typical Price and the SMA.
The result is a value that typically fluctuates between +100 and -100, though it is not bounded and can go higher or lower depending on the price movement.
The Money Flow Index (MFI) is a technical indicator that measures the strength of money flowing into and out of a security. It combines price and volume data to assess buying and selling pressure and is often used to identify overbought or oversold conditions. The formula for MFI involves several steps:
1. Calculate the Typical Price (TP):
TP = (high + low + close) / 3
2. Calculate the Raw Money Flow (RMF):
Raw Money Flow = TP × Volume
3. Determine Positive and Negative Money Flow:
If the current TP is greater than the previous TP, it's Positive Money Flow.
If the current TP is less than the previous TP, it's Negative Money Flow.
4. Calculate the Money Flow Ratio (MFR):
Money Flow Ratio = Sum of Positive Money Flow (over n periods) / Sum of Negative Money Flow (over n periods)
5. Calculate the Money Flow Index (MFI):
MFI = 100 − (100 / (1 + Money Flow Ratio))
MFI above 80 can be considered as overbought, below 20 - oversold.
The Exponential Moving Average (EMA) is a type of moving average that places greater weight and significance on the most recent data points. It is widely used in technical analysis to smooth price data and identify trends more quickly than the Simple Moving Average (SMA).
Formula:
1. Calculate the multiplier
Multiplier = 2 / (n + 1) , Where n is the number of periods.
2. EMA Calculation
EMA = (Current Price) × Multiplier + (Previous EMA) × (1 − Multiplier)
This strategy leverages Fast period CCI, which shall break the zero line to the upside to say that probability of short term trend change to the upside increased. This zero line crossover shall be confirmed by the Middle and Slow periods CCI Indicators. At the moment of breakout these two CCIs shall be above 0, indicating that there is a high probability that price is in middle and long term uptrend. This approach increases chances to have a long trade setup in the direction of mid-term and long-term trends when the short-term trend starts to reverse to the upside.
Additionally strategy uses MFI to have a greater probability that fast CCI breakout is confirmed by this indicator. We consider the values of MFI above 50 as a higher probability that trend change from downtrend to the uptrend is real. Script opens long trades only if MFI is above 50. As you already know from the MFI description, it incorporates volume in its calculation, therefore we have another one confirmation factor.
Finally, strategy uses EMA an additional trend filter. It allows to open long trades only if price close above EMA (by default 50 period). It increases the probability of taking long trades only in the direction of the trend.
ATR is used to adjust the strategy risk management to the current market volatility. If volatility is low, we don’t need the large stop loss to understand the there is a high probability that we made a mistake opening the trade. User can setup the settings ATR Stop Loss and ATR Trailing Profit Activation Level to realize his own risk to reward preferences, but the unique feature of a strategy is that after reaching trailing profit activation level strategy is trying to follow the trend until it is likely to be finished instead of using fixed risk management settings. It allows sometimes to be involved in the large movements. It’s also important to make a note, that script uses another one EMA (by default = 20 period) as a trailing profit level.

nPOC Levels by Tyler### Explanation of the Pine Script
This Pine Script identifies and displays weekly naked Points of Control (nPOCs) on a TradingView chart. An nPOC represents a Point of Control (POC) from a previous week that has not been revisited by price action in subsequent weeks. These nPOCs are extended to the right as horizontal lines, indicating potential support or resistance levels.
#### Script Overview
1. **Indicator Declaration:**
```pinescript
//@version=5
indicator("Weekly nPOCs", overlay=true)
```
- The script is defined as a version 5 Pine Script.
- The `indicator` function sets the script's name ("Weekly nPOCs") and specifies that the indicator should be overlaid on the price chart (`overlay=true`).
2. **Function to Calculate POC:**
```pinescript
f_poc(_hl2, _vol) =>
var float vol_profile = na
if (na(vol_profile))
vol_profile := array.new_float(100, 0.0)
_bin_size = (high - low) / 100
for i = 0 to 99
if _hl2 >= low + i * _bin_size and _hl2 < low + (i + 1) * _bin_size
array.set(vol_profile, i, array.get(vol_profile, i) + _vol)
max_volume = array.max(vol_profile)
poc_index = array.indexof(vol_profile, max_volume)
poc_price = low + poc_index * _bin_size + _bin_size / 2
poc_price
```
- The function `f_poc` calculates the Point of Control (POC) for a given period.
- It takes two parameters: `_hl2` (the average of the high and low prices) and `_vol` (volume).
- A volume profile array (`vol_profile`) is initialized to store volume data across different price bins.
- The price range between the high and low is divided into 100 bins (`_bin_size`).
- The function iterates over each bin, accumulating the volumes for prices within each bin.
- The bin with the maximum volume is identified as the POC (`poc_price`).
3. **Variables to Store Weekly Data:**
```pinescript
var float poc = na
var float prev_poc = na
var line poc_lines = na
if na(poc_lines)
poc_lines := array.new_line(0)
```
- `poc` stores the current week's POC.
- `prev_poc` stores the previous week's POC.
- `poc_lines` is an array to store lines representing nPOCs. The array is initialized if it is `na` (not initialized).
4. **Calculate Weekly POC:**
```pinescript
is_new_week = ta.change(time('W')) != 0
if (is_new_week)
prev_poc := poc
poc := f_poc(hl2, volume)
if not na(prev_poc)
line new_poc_line = line.new(x1=bar_index, y1=prev_poc, x2=bar_index + 100, y2=prev_poc, color=color.red, width=2)
label.new(x=bar_index, y=prev_poc, text="nPOC", style=label.style_label_down, color=color.red, textcolor=color.white)
array.push(poc_lines, new_poc_line)
```
- `is_new_week` checks if the current bar is the start of a new week using the `ta.change(time('W'))` function.
- If it's a new week, the previous week's POC is stored in `prev_poc`, and the current week's POC is calculated using `f_poc`.
- If `prev_poc` is not `na`, a new line (`new_poc_line`) representing the nPOC is created, extending it to the right (for 100 bars).
- A label is created at the `prev_poc` level, marking it as "nPOC".
- The new line is added to the `poc_lines` array.
5. **Remove Old Lines:**
```pinescript
if array.size(poc_lines) > 52
line.delete(array.shift(poc_lines))
```
- This section ensures that only the last 52 weeks of nPOCs are kept to avoid cluttering the chart.
- If the `poc_lines` array contains more than 52 lines, the oldest line is deleted using `array.shift`.
6. **Plot the Current Week's POC as a Reference:**
```pinescript
plot(poc, title="Current Weekly POC", color=color.blue, linewidth=2, style=plot.style_line)
```
- The current week's POC is plotted as a blue line on the chart for reference.
#### Summary
This script calculates and identifies weekly Points of Control (POCs) and marks them as nPOCs if they remain untouched by subsequent price action. These nPOCs are displayed as horizontal lines extending to the right, providing traders with potential support or resistance levels. The script also manages the number of lines plotted to maintain a clear and uncluttered chart.
SuperTrend with Chebyshev FilterModified Super Trend with Chebyshev Filter
The Modified Super Trend is an innovative take on the classic Super Trend indicator. This advanced version incorporates a Chebyshev filter, which significantly enhances its capabilities by reducing false signals and improving overall signal quality. In this post, we'll dive deep into the Modified Super Trend, exploring its history, the benefits of the Chebyshev filter, and how it effectively addresses the challenges associated with smoothing, delay, and noise.
History of the Super Trend
The Super Trend indicator, developed by Olivier Seban, has been a popular tool among traders since its inception. It helps traders identify market trends and potential entry and exit points. The Super Trend uses average true range (ATR) and a multiplier to create a volatility-based trailing stop, providing traders with a dynamic tool that adapts to changing market conditions. However, the original Super Trend has its limitations, such as the tendency to produce false signals during periods of low volatility or sideways trading.
The Chebyshev Filter
The Chebyshev filter is a powerful mathematical tool that makes an excellent addition to the Super Trend indicator. It effectively addresses the issues of smoothing, delay, and noise associated with traditional moving averages. Chebyshev filters are named after Pafnuty Chebyshev, a renowned Russian mathematician who made significant contributions to the field of approximation theory.
The Chebyshev filter is capable of producing smoother, more responsive moving averages without introducing additional lag. This is possible because the filter minimizes the worst-case error between the ideal and the actual frequency response. There are two types of Chebyshev filters: Type I and Type II. Type I Chebyshev filters are designed to have an equiripple response in the passband, while Type II Chebyshev filters have an equiripple response in the stopband. The Modified Super Trend allows users to choose between these two types based on their preferences.
Overcoming the Challenges
The Modified Super Trend addresses several challenges associated with the original Super Trend:
Smoothing: The Chebyshev filter produces a smoother moving average without introducing additional lag. This feature is particularly beneficial during periods of low volatility or sideways trading, as it reduces the number of false signals.
Delay: The Chebyshev filter helps minimize the delay between price action and the generated signal, allowing traders to make timely decisions based on more accurate information.
Noise Reduction: The Chebyshev filter's ability to minimize the worst-case error between the ideal and actual frequency response reduces the impact of noise on the generated signals. This feature is especially useful when using the true range as an offset for the price, as it helps generate more reliable signals within a reasonable time frame.
The Great Replacement
The Modified Super Trend with Chebyshev filter is an excellent replacement for the original Super Trend indicator. It offers significant improvements in terms of signal quality, responsiveness, and accuracy. By incorporating the Chebyshev filter, the Modified Super Trend effectively reduces the number of false signals during low volatility or sideways trading, making it a more reliable tool for identifying market trends and potential entry and exit points.
In-Depth Guide to the Modified Super Trend Settings
The Modified Super Trend with Chebyshev filter offers a wide range of settings that allow traders to fine-tune the indicator to suit their specific trading styles and objectives. In this section, we will discuss each setting in detail, explaining its purpose and how to use it effectively.
Source
The source setting determines the price data used for calculations. The default setting is hl2, which calculates the average of the high and low prices. You can choose other price data sources such as close, open, or ohlc4 (average of open, high, low, and close prices) based on your preference.
Up Color and Down Color
These settings control the color of the trend line when the market is in an uptrend (up_color) and a downtrend (down_color). You can customize these colors to your liking, making it easier to visually identify the current market trend.
Text Color
This setting controls the color of the text displayed on the chart when using labels to indicate trend changes. You can choose any color that contrasts well with your chart background for better readability.
Mean Length
The mean_length setting determines the length (number of bars) used for the Chebyshev moving average calculation. A shorter length will make the moving average more responsive to price changes, while a longer length will produce a smoother moving average. It is crucial to find the right balance between responsiveness and smoothness, as a too-short length may generate false signals, while a too-long length might produce lagging signals. The default value is 64, but you can experiment with different values to find the optimal setting for your trading strategy.
Mean Ripple
The mean_ripple setting influences the Chebyshev filter's ripple effect in the passband (Type I) or stopband (Type II). The ripple effect represents small oscillations in the frequency response, which can impact the moving average's smoothness. The default value is 0.01, but you can experiment with different values to find the best balance between smoothness and responsiveness.
Chebyshev Type: Type I or Type II
The style setting allows you to choose between Type I and Type II Chebyshev filters. Type I filters have an equiripple response in the passband, while Type II filters have an equiripple response in the stopband. Depending on your preference for smoothness and responsiveness, you can choose the type that best fits your trading style.
ATR Style
The atr_style setting determines the method used for calculating the Average True Range (ATR). By default (false), it uses the traditional high-low range. When set to true, it uses the absolute difference between the open and close prices. You can choose the method that works best for your trading strategy and the market you are trading.
ATR Length
The atr_length setting controls the length (number of bars) used for calculating the ATR. Similar to the mean_length, a shorter length will make the ATR more responsive to price changes, while a longer length will produce a smoother ATR. The default value is 64, but you can experiment with different values to find the optimal setting for your trading strategy.
ATR Ripple
The atr_ripple setting, like the mean_ripple, influences the ripple effect of the Chebyshev filter used in the ATR calculation. The default value is 0.05, but you can experiment with different values to find the best balance between smoothness and responsiveness.
Multiplier
The multiplier setting determines the factor by which the ATR is multiplied before being added
Super Trend Logic and Signal Optimization
The Modified Super Trend with Chebyshev filter is designed to minimize false signals and provide a clear indication of market trends. It does so by using a combination of moving averages, Average True Range (ATR), and a multiplier. In this section, we will discuss the Super Trend's logic, its ability to prevent false signals, and the early warning crosses added to the indicator.
Super Trend Logic
The Super Trend's logic is based on a combination of the Chebyshev moving average and ATR. The Chebyshev moving average is a smooth moving average that effectively filters out market noise, while the ATR is a measure of market volatility.
The Super Trend is calculated by adding or subtracting a multiple of the ATR from the Chebyshev moving average. The multiplier is a user-defined value that determines the distance between the trend line and the price action. A larger multiplier results in a wider channel, reducing the likelihood of false signals but potentially missing out on valid trend changes.
Preventing False Signals
The Super Trend is designed to minimize false signals by maintaining its trend direction until a significant change in the market occurs. In a downtrend, the trend line will only decrease in value, and in an uptrend, it will only increase. This helps prevent false signals caused by temporary price fluctuations or market noise.
When the price crosses the trend line, the Super Trend does not immediately change its direction. Instead, it employs a safety logic to ensure that the trend change is genuine. The safety logic checks if the new trend line (calculated using the updated moving average and ATR) is more extreme than the previous one. If it is, the trend line is updated; otherwise, the previous trend line is maintained. This mechanism further reduces the likelihood of false signals by ensuring that the trend line only changes when there is a significant shift in the market.
Early Warning Crosses
To provide traders with additional insight, the Modified Super Trend with Chebyshev filter includes early warning crosses. These crosses are plotted on the chart when the price crosses the trend line without the safety logic. Although these crosses do not necessarily indicate a trend change, they can serve as a valuable heads-up for traders to monitor the market closely and prepare for potential trend reversals.
In conclusion, the Modified Super Trend with Chebyshev filter offers a significant improvement over the original Super Trend indicator. By incorporating the Chebyshev filter, this modified version effectively addresses the challenges of smoothing, delay, and noise reduction while minimizing false signals. The wide range of customizable settings allows traders to tailor the indicator to their specific needs, while the inclusion of early warning crosses provides valuable insight into potential trend reversals.
Ultimately, the Modified Super Trend with Chebyshev filter is an excellent tool for traders looking to enhance their trend identification and decision-making abilities. With its advanced features, this indicator can help traders navigate volatile markets with confidence, making more informed decisions based on accurate, timely information.
MACD Support and Resistance [ChartPrime]⯁ OVERVIEW
MACD Support and Resistance is a dynamic support/resistance mapping tool powered by MACD crossover logic. Each time the MACD line crosses the signal line, the indicator scans for recent price extremes and locks them in as potential support or resistance zones. These levels are automatically cleaned up if price breaks them, keeping the chart focused on active market structure. The system includes a built-in MACD display with visual markers, along with contextual highs and lows to help define the current environment.
⯁ MACD-BASED SUPPORT/RESISTANCE GENERATION
The core logic uses the MACD oscillator crossover as a trigger event to generate structural levels:
When MACD crosses above its signal line:
→ The script scans the last 5 bars for the lowest low .
→ A support level is plotted at that price.
When MACD crosses below its signal line:
→ The script scans the last 5 bars for the highest high .
→ A resistance level is plotted at that price.
These dynamic levels reflect where price recently reversed or paused, making them prime zones for reaction, continuation, or invalidation.
⯁ LEVEL MANAGEMENT AND VALIDATION
To keep the chart clean and relevant:
A maximum of 20 active levels are allowed at once.
Older levels are automatically removed if the list exceeds the limit.
If price closes below a support level or above a resistance level , the corresponding line is deleted.
This ensures that only currently respected levels remain on the chart — a major advantage for active traders.
⯁ MACD VISUALIZATION + SIGNAL MARKERS
A full MACD system is rendered on the lower panel for visual confirmation:
The MACD line and Signal line are both plotted and color-coded dynamically.
A filled area] highlights the spread between them to emphasize momentum strength.
A diamond marker is drawn each time MACD crosses its signal line, alerting traders to potential trend shifts.
These visuals make it easy to understand the timing of the support/resistance updates.
⯁ LOCAL EXTREME REFERENCE LINES
To help contextualize current price position relative to recent market extremes:
A Local High line is plotted based on the highest MACD value over the past 100 bars].
A Local Low line is plotted based on the lowest MACD value over the past 100 bars].
These levels are rendered lightly and serve as dynamic range boundaries.
They assist traders in identifying overextended or compressed MACD behavior.
⯁ USAGE
Use the generated S/R levels as breakout or reversal zones.
Watch for MACD diamond markers to confirm the timing of new levels.
Combine these reactive zones with other ChartPrime confluence tools for higher-confidence entries.
Use the Local High/Low zones as a volatility envelope to guide risk and trend continuation potential.
⯁ CONCLUSION
MACD Support and Resistance takes a classic momentum indicator and adds real-time structural awareness. By linking MACD crossover events to recent price extremes, it identifies the zones where market sentiment shifted — and continues to monitor their strength. Whether you're a breakout trader or looking to fade key reaction points, this tool delivers clean, actionable levels based on momentum and structure — not guesswork.

GCM Centre Line Candle MarkerGCM Centre Line Candle Marker (GCM-CLCM) - Descriptive Notes
Indicator Overview:
The "GCM Centre Line Candle Marker" is a versatile TradingView overlay indicator designed to enhance chart analysis by drawing short horizontal lines at user-defined "centre" points of candles. These lines provide a quick visual reference to key price levels within each candle, such as midpoints, open, close, or typical prices. The indicator offers extensive customization for line appearance, positioning, and conditional display, including an option to highlight only bullish engulfing patterns.
Key Features:
1. Customizable Line Position:
o Users can choose from various methods to calculate the "centre" price for the line:
(High + Low) / 2 (Default)
(Open + Close) / 2
Close
Open
(Open + High + Low + Close) / 4 (HLCO/4)
(Open + High + Close) / 3 (Typical Price HLC/3 variation)
(Open + Close + Low) / 3 (Typical Price OCL/3 variation)
2. Line Appearance Customization:
o Visibility: Toggle lines on/off.
o Style: Solid, dotted, or dashed lines.
o Width: Adjustable line thickness (1 to 5).
o Length: Defines how many candles forward the line extends (1 to 10).
o Color: Lines are colored based on candle type (bullish/bearish), with user-selectable base colors.
o Dynamic Opacity: Line opacity is dynamically adjusted based on the candle's size relative to recent candles. Larger candles produce more opaque lines (up to the user-defined maximum opacity), while smaller candles result in more transparent lines. This helps significant candles stand out.
3. Price Labels:
o Show Labels: Option to display price labels at the end of each center line.
o Label Background Color: Customizable.
o Dynamic Text Color: Label text color can change based on the movement of the center price:

Gray: No change or first label.
o Static Text Color: Alternatively, a fixed color can be used for all labels.
4. Conditional Drawing - Bullish Engulfing Filter:
o Users can enable an option to Only Show Bullish Engulfing Candles. When active, center lines will only be drawn for candles that meet bullish engulfing criteria (current bull candle's body engulfs the previous bear candle's body).
5. Performance Management:
o Max Lines to Show: Limits the number of historical lines displayed on the chart to maintain clarity and performance. Older lines are automatically removed as new ones are drawn.
6. Alert Condition:
o Includes a built-in alert: Big Bullish Candle. This alert triggers when a bullish candle's range (high - low) is greater than the 20-period simple moving average (SMA) of candle ranges.
How It Works:
• For each new candle, the script calculates the "center" price based on the user's Line Position selection.
• If showLines is enabled and (if applicable) the bullish engulfing condition is met, a new line is drawn from the current candle's bar_index at the calculated _center price, extending lineLength candles forward.
• The line's color is determined by whether the candle is bullish (close > open) or bearish (close < open).
• Opacity is calculated dynamically: scaledOpacity = int((100 - maxUserOpacity) * (1 - dynamicFactor) + maxUserOpacity), where dynamicFactor is candleSize / maxSize (current candle size relative to the max size in the last 20 candles). This means maxUserOpacity is the least transparent the line will be (for the largest candles), and smaller candles will have lines approaching full transparency.
• Optional price labels are added at the end of these lines.
• The script manages an array of drawn lines, removing the oldest ones if the maxLines limit is exceeded.
Potential Use Cases:
• Visualizing Intra-Candle Levels: Quickly see midpoints or other key price points without manual drawing.
• Short-Term Reference Points: The extended lines can act as very short-term dynamic support/resistance or points of interest.
• Pattern Recognition: Highlight bullish engulfing patterns or simply emphasize candles based on their calculated center.
• Volatility Indication: The dynamic opacity can subtly indicate periods of larger or smaller candle ranges.
• Confirmation Tool: Use in conjunction with other indicators or trading strategies.
User Input Groups:
• Line Settings: Controls all aspects of the line's appearance and calculation.
• Label Settings: Manages the display and appearance of price labels.
• Other Settings: Contains options for line management and conditional filtering (like Bullish Engulfing).
This indicator provides a clean and customizable way to mark significant price levels within candles, aiding traders in their technical analysis.

Color Coded Volume IndicatorColor Coded Volume Indicator
Overview
Splits each bar’s total volume into estimated buy-side vs. sell-side components and displays them as stacked two-tone columns (red = sell, green = buy). Axis labels and tooltips use “K”/“M” formatting.
Features
Stacked Two-Tone Columns
Red Base : estimated sell volume (50% opacity)
Green Top : remaining buy volume (50% opacity)
Automatic K/M Formatting via format=format.volume
Zero Baseline for clean reference at zero
Positive-Only Bars (no negatives)
How It Works
True-Range Guard
Skips bars where high == low to avoid divide-by-zero.
Volume Split
BuyVol = Volume × (Close − Low) / (High − Low)
SellVol = Volume × (High − Close) / (High − Low)
Both series clamped ≥ 0.
Layered Plot
Draw semi-transparent green at full height, then overlay red sell portion.
