Volatility Prism [Nic]What is this
The volatility rainbow tracks divergences in a security and its volatility index. This can be used to identify periods of heightened implied (future) risk.
About Volatility
The volatility is calculated by looking at put / call ratios. When VIX goes up it means that puts are outpacing calls. This is a bearish signal.
About Correlation
When the security goes up while the VIX goes up, the divergence on the plot will increase and turn a color. This should be a warning.
Volatility Rainbow
This is a similar indicator, but this one merges all signals into a single line.

VIX MTF MomentumSweet little momentum gadget to track the VIX Index.
What is the VIX?
The CBOE S&P 500 Volatility Index (VIX) is known as the 'Fear Index' which can measure how worried traders are that the S&P 500 might suddenly drop within the next 30 days.
When the VIX starts moving higher, it is telling you that traders are getting nervous. When the VIX starts moving lower, it is telling you that traders are gaining confidence.
VIX calculation?
The Chicago Board of Options Exchange Market Volatility Index (VIX) is a measure of implied volatility (Of the S&P 500 securities options), based on the prices of a basket of S&P 500 Index options with 30 days to expiration.
How to use:
If VIX Momentum is above 0 (RED) traders are getting nervous.
If VIX Momentum is below 0 (GREEN) traders are gaining confidence.

CryptoSignalScanner - Advanced Moving Averages - Cross & RainbowDESCRIPTION:
With this script you can plot 6 moving averages.
You can decide which Moving Average you want to show or hide.
For every plot you can decide to display the Simple Moving Average ( SMA ) or Exponential Moving Average ( EMA ).
It provides CrossOver and CrossUnder labels when loading the script. Those labels you can show or hide.
You have the possibility to show or hide the rainbow colors. This rainbow function gives you a clear view of the current trend.
HOW TO USE:
• When one Moving Average crosses above another Moving Average it signals an uptrend.
• When one Moving Average crosses below another Moving Average it signals a downtrend.
• The higher to length of the Moving Average the stronger the trend.
FEATURES:
• You can show/hide the preferred Moving Averages.
• You can set the length, type and source for every Moving Average.
• You can show/hide the rainbow colors.
• You can show/hide the CrossUp labels.
• You can show/hide the CrossDown labels.
• You can set alerts for every Moving Average.
• Etc...
DEFAULT SETTINGS:
• MA1 => EMA5
• MA2 => EMA10
• MA3 => EMA20
• MA4 => SMA50
• MA5 => SMA100
• MA6 => SMA200
Simple Moving Average vs. Exponential Moving Average:
SMA and EMA are calculated differently. The exponential moving average ( EMA ) focuses more on recent prices than on a long series of data points, as the simple moving average required.
The calculation makes the EMA quicker to react to price changes and the SMA react slower. That is the main difference between the two.
One is not necessarily better than another. It comes down to personal preference. Plot an EMA and SMA of the same length on a chart and see which one helps you make better trading decisions.
Moving Average Trading Strategies:
The first strategy is a price crossover, when the price crosses above or below a moving average, it signals a potential change in trend.
The second strategy applies when one moving averages crosses another moving average.
• When the short-term MA crosses above the long-term MA, it signals a buy signal.
• When the short-term MA crosses below the long-term MA, it signals a sell signal.

Volatility SkewThis indicator measure the historical skew of actual volatility for an individual security. It measure the volatility of up moves versus down moves over the period and gives a ratio. When the indicator is greater than one, it indicators that volatility is greater to the upside, when it is below 1 it indicates that volatility is skewed to the downside.
This is not comparable to the SKEW index, since that measures the implied volatility across option strikes, rather than using historical volatility.
Roofing Filter [DW]This is an experimental study built on the concept of using roofing filters on price data proposed by John Ehlers.
Roofing filters are a type of bandpass filter conventionally used in HF radio receivers in the first IF stage to limit the frequency spectrum passed on to later stages in the receiver.
The goal in applying roofing filters to a price signal is to simultaneously attenuate high frequency noise and low frequency distortion to pass an oscillating signal with a nearly zero mean for analysis and/or further calculation.
In this study, there are three filter types to choose from:
-> Ehlers Roofing Filter, which passes data through a 2 pole high pass filter, then through a Super Smoother filter.
-> Gaussian Roofing Filter, which passes data through a 2 pole Gaussian high pass filter, then through a 2 pole Gaussian low pass filter.
-> Butterworth Roofing Filter, which passes data through a 2 pole Butterworth high pass filter, then through a 2 pole Butterworth low pass filter.
Each filter type has different amplitude and delay characteristics, so play around with each type and see which response suits your needs best.
There is an option to normalize the scale of the output as well. The normalization process in this script is computed by comparing positive and negative outputs to the filter's moving RMS value.
The resulting oscillator can be fed through numerous conventional indicators including Stochastic Oscillator, RSI, CCI, etc. to generate smoother, less distorted indicators for a clearer view of turning points.
Alternatively, it can also act as an indicator itself, as implied by the corresponding color scheme included in the script.
Although roofing filters are not conventionally used in the analysis of market data, applying such spectral analysis techniques may prove to be quite useful for the design of more efficient indicators and more reliable predictions.
Multiple Rate Of ChangeConvergence of Multiple period Rates of Change near the Zero line shows contraction in volatility.
Soon we can expect expansion in volatility.
Ideal strategy would be to buy ATM Straddles when different period ROCs converge near Zero line.
(Also check implied volatility of options before going for this strategy)
Multistep AutocorrelationAutocorrelation, also known as serial correlation, is the correlation of a signal with a delayed copy of itself as a function of delay. Informally, it is the similarity between observations as a function of the time lag between them. The analysis of autocorrelation is a mathematical tool for finding repeating patterns, such as the presence of a periodic signal obscured by noise, or identifying the missing fundamental frequency in a signal implied by its harmonic frequencies. It is often used in signal processing for analyzing functions or series of values, such as time domain signals.
This multistep autocorrelation function calculates the correlation of roc (rate of change) between an asset at t and t-1 as well as the correlation of the same asset at t and t-4. The output is an average of the two.
If both outputs show a positive correlation, the color will be green.
If only one shows a positive correlation, the color will be yellow.
If neither show a positive correlation, the color will be red.
This indicator can be useful as a filter for strategy entry logic (only enter on strong correlation and the strategy entry condition), or as standalone confirmation of strength in a specific direction. It can also be used to filter chop.
Another potential usecase would be as a variable in regression applications.

(JS)S&P 500 Volatility Oscillator For Options 2.0I am going to start taking requests to open source my indicators and they will also be updated to Version 4 of Pinescript.
I added some features to the original code such the ability to smooth the oscillator and select the look back periods for the historical volatility.

"The idea for this started here: www.tradingview.com with the user @dime
This should only be used on SPX or SPY (though you could use it on other things for correlation I suppose) given that the instrument used to create this calculation is derived from the S&P 500 (thank you VIX ). There's a lot of moving parts here though, so allow me to explain...
First: The main signal is when Implied Volatility (from VIX ) drops beneath Historical Volatility - which is what you want to see so you aren't purchasing a ton of premium on long options. Green and above 0 means that IV% has dropped lower than Historical Volatility . (this signal, for example, would suggest using a Long Call or Put depending on your sentiment)
Second: The green line running underneath zero is the bottom portion of the "Average True Range" derived from the values used to create the oscillator. the closer the bottom histogram is to the green line, the more "normal" IV% is. Obviously, if this gets far away from the line then it could be setting up nicely to short options and sell the IV premium to someone else. (this signal, for example, would suggest using something like a Bull Put Spread)
Third: The red background along with the white line that drops down below zero signals when (and how far) the IV% from 3 months out (from VIX3M ) is less than the current IV%. This would signal the current environment has IV way too high, a signal to short options once again (and don't take any long option positions!).
Tried to make this simple, yet effective. If you trade options on SPX , SPY , even ES1! futures - this is a tool tailored specifically for you! As I said before, if you want you can use it for correlation on other securities. Any other ideas or suggestions surrounding this, please let me know! Enjoy!
Feb 17, 2019
Release Notes: Cosmetic update for a much cleaner look:
-Replaced the "HIGH IV" with a simlple "H"
-Now the white line is constantly showing you the relationship between VIX and VIX3M - when VIX is greater than VIX3M the background still goes red
-However, now when VIX drops below Historical Volatility, the background is bright green
-When both above are true - it's dark green
-The Average True Range on the bottom is now a series of crosses"
Casey's Parabolic SARI whipped together this script after having listened to Hyperwave with Sawcruhteez and Tyler Jenks in the evening on July 3, 2019. They felt that the existing Parabolic SAR was not doing its calculations properly, and they hoped that someone might help them correct this. So I tried my hand at it, learning Pine as I went. I don't know if this script works properly (so don't use it!), but it does show a trend change on the weekly this week as it apparently should. I'm making the script public so that Sawcruhteez and Tyler Jenks can take a look at it.

Percentage OscillatorUsing momentum calculations on multiple time frames and adding everything together into 4 separate directions:
1- green: the strength and momentum in +45 to +90 degrees angle
2- blue: the strength and momentum in 0 to +45 degrees angle
3- orange: the strength and momentum in 0 to -45 degrees angle
4- red: the strength and momentum in -45 to -90 degrees angle
Single parameter to control the size of the largest moving window.
Uptrend is green with orange corrections
Downtrend is red with blue corrections
When downtrend turns into uptrend, blue becomes green
When uptrend turns into downtrend, orange becomes red
The natural cycle of the market is RED->BLUE->GREEN->ORANGE and so on, you will see the cycle repeats itself 3 times before a break up\down. The strength of the movement depends on the height and width of all the waves that created the 3 cycle movement (reminds Elliot in an oscillatory representation)
The script is provided as is, there are no trading strategies implied or recommended.

ST_Trend_ReversalSTRONG TREND REVERSAL INDICATOR
The code is the percentage difference between the spot price of a given financial asset and its 200-day MA of that period. My standard setup is Daily, and I think it's got very good predictive power at that timeframe.
It can be read in two ways:
1. Values extremely above or below the 200-period MA present chances of buying/selling agains the prevailing trend.
2. Values closely above or below the 200-period MA are make-or-break market periods, where a medium-term trend becomes evident. Breaks above or below the MA are associated with strong chances of directional movements. But it's not fool-proof as false breaks have become commonplace nowadays.
Other way to use it is as confirmation of breakdowns: For example, an asset that loses its 200-day MA and then can't rally above it becomes exposed to steep losses afterwards.
It's also helpful to use in volatility trading: the closer the asset goes to its MA, the lower goes implied vol, and thus better opportiunities to be long volatility on those occasions where direction is hard to predict.
STRI = close/(200dMA)
Values over 100 indicate percentage premiums of spot vs its moving average.
Values below indicate percentage discounts of spot vs its moving average.
