Balance of Force (BOF)The script "Balance of Force" is an indicator that aims to provide insight into the bullish and bearish forces present in the market by analyzing the relationship between bullish and bearish true ranges. The indicator first calculates the bearish and bullish true ranges by taking the absolute difference between the open and close prices for each period and summing these values over a user-specified length. It then calculates the ratio of the bullish true range to the bearish true range and takes the natural logarithm of this value, resulting in the "bullish-bearish ratio".
The script then calculates the standard deviation of this ratio over a user-specified length to create a measure of volatility. Using this deviation and the dominant cycle, it then applies an exponential moving average to smooth the ratio. The indicator plots the smoothed ratio, the raw ratio, and the deviation of the ratio multiplied by 1, 2 and 3 in addition to filling the area between the deviation multiplied by 3 and the log(1) with red and green. The user can use the indicator to identify potential bullish or bearish market conditions by analyzing the relationship between the smoothed ratio and the log(1) and the deviation of the ratio.

Daily/Weekly ExtremesBACKGROUND
This indicator calculates the daily and weekly +-1 standard deviation of the S&P 500 based on 2 methodologies:
1. VIX - Using the market's expectation of forward volatility, one can calculate the daily expectation by dividing the VIX by the square root of 252 (the number of trading days in a year) - also know as the "rule of 16." Similarly, dividing by the square root of 50 will give you the weekly expected range based on the VIX.
2. ATR - We also provide expected weekly and daily ranges based on 5 day/week ATR.
HOW TO USE
- This indicator only has 1 option in the settings: choosing the ATR (default) or the VIX to plot the +-1 standard deviation range.
- This indicator WILL ONLY display these ranges if you are looking at the SPX or ES futures. The ranges will not be displayed if you are looking at any other symbols
- The boundaries displayed on the chart should not be used on their own as bounce/reject levels. They are simply to provide a frame of reference as to where price is trading with respect to the market's implied expectations. It can be used as an indicator to look for signs of reversals on the tape.
- Daily and Weekly extremes are plotted on all time frames (even on lower time frames).
Qullamaggie Daily with ADR% and Compression RangeQullamaggie Daily
This Indicator is a Combination of Moving Averages (Simple and Exponential) as definied from Qullamaggie and used in his TC2000 Setup
Moving Averages:
- The Moving Averages are Guidelines for the current Trend and are not decive for the Entry
- They shall be a quick view and visual assistance to find strong momentum stock that are currently in a Phase of a "Flag Pattern"
ADR% 20 Day:
- Average Daily Range in % should indicate the Momentum of the Stock. It is similar but still works different as the Volalitily indicators.
- A stock is recommend to a have a ADR% above 5-6 to be considered a Momentum Leading Stock.
Consolidation Range:
- This Indicator should help to define Ranges in which the Volumen get compressed(increase) while the price movement is minimal
- A strong breakout is to be expected. The Range should be easier to be identified with this indication.
VWAP Band TrendThis indicator combines two features: VWAP bands for range trading and trends for trend-following.
The white bands offer support/resistance levels ideal for range trading: short when rejecting off the upper band, long when rejecting off the lower. Take profit either when hitting the (faint gray) midline and/or when hitting the band on the far side.
The trend analysis shows green or red ranges above or below the bands to indicate trend strength - larger swaths of green or red indicates strong trend while shorter swathes indicate weak. If the upper trend color doesn't match the lower trend color, the trend is undecided or transitioning.
Optionally, trend initiation indicators can be turned on to show above/below candles where a trend switch is taking place.
Box Range AlertSimple Script for getting alerts on the crossing of Upper & Lower levels either way.
Good for Free users as they can only use 1 alert at a time. So this indicator will be useful to get alerts on both Breakout Or Breakdowns.
Just add input Price manually and set alerts.
Percent Change of Range Candles📌 Indicator Description: "Percent Change of Range Candles"
This indicator is designed to visualize the percentage price change over a specified number of candles, relative to the historical market range. Instead of traditional candles, it uses a custom "range candle" visualization that reflects relative changes in context with the highest and lowest points within a given period.
🎯 Purpose and Application
The goal of this indicator is to:
Show how much the current price has changed compared to the price length candles ago (default: 100).
Express this change as a percentage of the total price range during that period.
Help traders identify extreme price movements, whether bullish or bearish.
Serve as an additional filter for momentum zones, divergences, or overextended conditions.
⚙️ How It Works
🔹 Core Calculation:
Range: The difference between the highest and lowest price over the selected period (length).
Price Change: The difference between the current close and the close length bars ago.
Percentage Value: (price_change / range) * 100
🔹 Additional Logic:
The synthetic open value is calculated as the average of the last 5 c values.
The high and low of each range candle are adjusted:
If c is negative, the high is replaced with a shorter-term percentage change (25% of length).
If c is positive, the low is adjusted in the same way.
🔹 Visualization:
Displays custom candles based on percentage change, not real price.
Candle color is green if the current value is above the recent average, and red if below.
Horizontal reference lines are drawn at +100, +70, 0, -70, and -100, helping to identify extremes.
✅ Advantages and Use Cases
Detects market extremes and potential reversal zones.
Useful in volatility or momentum-based strategies.
Can serve as a signal filter or divergence detector when combined with other tools (e.g., RSI, MACD).
Anchored Bollinger Band Range [SS]This is the anchored Bollinger band indicator.
What it does?
The anchored BB indicator:
Takes a user defined range and calculates the Standard Deviation of the entire selected range for the high and low values.
Computes a moving average of the high and low during the selected period (which later becomes the breakout range average)
Anchors to the last high and last low of the period range to add up to 4 standard deviations to the upside and downside, giving you 4 high and low targets.
How can you use it?
The anchored BB indicator has many applicable uses, including
Identifying daily ranges based on premarket trading activity ( see below ):
Finding breakout ranges for intraday pattern setups ( see below ):
Identified pattern of interest:
Applying Anchored BB:
Identifying daily or pattern biases based on the position to the opening breakout range average (blue line). See the examples with explanations:
ex#1:
ex#2:
The Opening Breakout Average
As you saw in the examples above, the blue line represents the opening breakout range average.
This is the average high of the period of interest and the average low of the period of interest.
Price action above this line would be considered Bullish, and Bearish if below.
This also acts as a retracement zone in non-trending markets. For example:
Best Use Cases
Identify breakout ranges for patterns on larger timeframes. For example
This pattern on SPY, if we overlay the Anchored BB:
You want to see it actually breakout from this range and hold to confirm a breakout. Failure to exceed the BB range, means that it is just ranging with no real breakout momentum.
Identify conservative ranges for a specific period in time, for example QQQ:
Worst Use Cases
Using it as a hard and fast support and resistance indicator. This is not what it is for and ranges can be exceeded with momentum. The key is looking for whether ranges are exceeded (i.e. high momentum, thus breakout play) or they are not (thus low volume, rangy).
Using it for longer term outlooks. This is not ideal for long term ranges, as with any Bollinger/standard deviation based approach, it is only responsive to CURRENT PA and cannot forecast FUTURE PA.
User Inputs
The indicator is really straight forward. There are 2 optional inputs and 1 required input.
Period Selection: Required. Selects the period for the indicator to perform the analysis on. You just select it with your mouse on the chart.
Visible MA: Optional. You can choose to have the breakout range moving average visible or not.
Fills: Optional. You can choose to have the fills plotted or not.
And that is the indicator! Very easy to use and hope you enjoy and find it helpful!
As always, safe trades everyone! 🚀
Relative Strength Index With Range ZoneRSI (Relative Strength Index) with 45-55 Range Zone
1. Introduction and Historical Background
The Relative Strength Index (RSI) is a momentum indicator developed in 1978 by J. Welles Wilder Jr. It measures the speed and magnitude of price changes to assess overbought and oversold conditions of an asset. This widely used oscillator ranges between 0 and 100.
Historically, the RSI was mainly used to detect trend reversals by identifying extreme levels: above 70 (overbought) and below 30 (oversold). However, its application has evolved, and new approaches refine its interpretation, such as adding a 45-55 neutral zone to identify consolidation (range) periods.
2. RSI Calculation
The RSI is calculated using the following formula:
RSI=100−(1001+RS)RSI=100−(1+RS100)
Where:
RS=Average gain over N periodsAverage loss over N periodsRS=Average loss over N periodsAverage gain over N periods
• RS (Relative Strength) is the ratio between the average gains and the average losses over N periods (typically 14 periods).
• Gains and losses are calculated based on daily price variations.
Example calculation with a 14-day period:
1. Compute daily gains and losses.
2. Take an exponential or simple moving average of these values over 14 days.
3. Apply the formula to get the RSI value.
3. Classic RSI Usage
The RSI is typically interpreted as follows:
• RSI > 70: Overbought → Possible correction or bearish reversal.
• RSI < 30: Oversold → Possible rebound or bullish reversal.
• RSI between 50 and 70: Bullish momentum.
• RSI between 30 and 50: Bearish momentum.
4. Adding the 45-55 Zone to Identify Range Phases
Adding a neutral zone between 45 and 55 helps identify consolidation periods, when price moves sideways without a strong trend.
• RSI between 45 and 55: The market is in a range, meaning neither buyers nor sellers dominate.
• RSI breaking out of this zone:
o Above 55: Indicates the start of a bullish trend.
o Below 45: Indicates the start of a bearish trend.
This zone is particularly useful for:
• Avoiding false signals by waiting for trend confirmation.
• Identifying ranging markets, favoring range trading strategies (buying at support, selling at resistance).
• Filtering trend-based entries, waiting for the RSI to exit the 45-55 zone.
5. Trading Strategies Using RSI with the 45-55 Range Zone
1. Range Trading:
• When the RSI oscillates between 45 and 55, it signals a lack of strong trend.
• Strategy:
o Identify a support and resistance level.
o Buy near support when the RSI touches 45.
o Sell near resistance when the RSI touches 55.
2. Breakout Trading:
• If the RSI exits the 45-55 zone:
o Above 55 → Buy (start of a bullish trend).
o Below 45 → Sell (start of a bearish trend).
• This breakout can be used as a confirmed entry signal.
3. Confirmation with Divergences:
• A bullish divergence (price making lower lows while RSI makes higher lows) is more relevant if the RSI moves above 55.
• A bearish divergence (price making higher highs while RSI makes lower highs) is stronger if the RSI drops below 45.
6. Conclusion
The RSI is a powerful tool for analyzing price momentum. Adding a 45-55 zone enhances its usage by clearly distinguishing:
• Consolidation phases (range markets).
• Trend beginnings when RSI breaks out of this range.
This approach improves RSI reliability by filtering out false signals and allowing traders to adapt their strategy based on market conditions.
Timed Ranges [mktrader]The Timed Ranges indicator helps visualize price ranges that develop during specific time periods. It's particularly useful for analyzing market behavior in instruments like NASDAQ, S&P 500, and Dow Jones, which often show reactions to sweeps of previous ranges and form reversals.

Opening Range Gap + Std Dev [starclique]The ICT Opening Range Gap is a concept taught by Inner Circle Trader and is discussed in the videos: 'One Trading Setup For Life' and 2023 ICT Mentorship - Opening Range Gap Repricing Macro
ORGs, or Opening Range Gaps, are gaps that form only on the Regular Trading Hours chart.
The Regular Trading Hours gap occurs between 16:15 PM - 9:29 AM EST (UTC-4)
These times are considered overnight trading, so it is useful to filter the PA (price action) formed there.
The RTH option is only available for futures contracts and continuous futures from CME Group.
To change your chart to RTH, first things first, make sure you’re looking at a futures contract for an asset class, then on the bottom right of your chart, you’ll see ETH (by default) - Click on that, and change it to RTH.
Now your charts are filtering the price action that happened overnight.
To draw out your gap, use the Close of the 4:14 PM candle and the open of the 9:30 AM candle.
How is this concept useful?
Well, It can be used in many ways.

How To Use The ORG
One of the ways you can use the opening range gap is simply as support and resistance
If we extend out the ORG from the example above, we can see that there is a clean retest of the opening range gap high after breaking structure to the upside and showing acceptance outside of the gap after consolidating within it.
The ORG High (4:14 Candle Close in this case) was used as support.
We then see an expansion to the upside.
Another way to implement the ORG is by using it as a draw on liquidity (magnet for price)
In this example, if we looked to the left, there was a huge ORG to the downside, leaving a massive gap.
The market will want to rebalance that gap during the regular trading hours.
The market rallies higher, rejects, comes down to clear the current days ORG low, then closes.
That is one example of how you can combine liquidity & ICT market structure concepts with Opening Range Gaps to create a story in the charts.
Now let’s discuss standard deviations.
---
Standard Deviations
Standard Deviations are essentially projection levels for ranges / POIs (Point of Interests)
By this I mean, if you have a range, and you would like to see where it could potentially expand to, you’d place your fibonacci retracement tool on and high and low of the range, then use extension levels to find specific price points where price might reject from.
Since 0 and 1 are your Range High and Low respectively, your projection levels would be something like 1.5, 2, 2.5, and 3, for the extension from your 1 Fib Level, and -0.5, -1, -1.5, and -2 for your 0 Fib level.
The -1 and 2 level produce a 1:1 projection of your range low and high, meaning, if you expect price to expand as much as it did from the range low to range high, then you can project a -1 and 2 on your Fib, and it would show you what ICT calls “symmetrical price”
Now, how are standard deviations relevant here?
Well, if you’ve been paying attention to ICT’s recent videos, you would’ve caught that he’s recently started using Standard Deviation levels on breakers.
So my brain got going while watching his video on ORGs, and I decided to place the fib on the ORG high and low and see what it’d produce.
The results were very interesting.
Using this same example, if we place our fib on the ORG High and Low, and add some projection levels, we can see that we rejected right at the -2 Standard Deviation Level.
---
You can see that I also marked out the EQ (Equilibrium, 50%, 0.5 of Fib) of the ORG. This is because we can use this level as a take profit level if we’re using an old ORG as our draw.
In days like these, where the gap formed was within a consolidation, and it continued to consolidate within the ORG zone that we extended, we can use the EQ in the same way we’d use an EQ for a range.
If it’s showing acceptance above the EQ, we are bullish, and expect the high of the ORG to be tapped, and vice versa.
---
Using The Indicator
Here’s where our indicator comes in play.
To avoid having to do all this work of zooming in and marking out the close and open of the respective ORG candles, we created the Opening Range Gap + Standard Deviations Indicator, with the help of our dedicated Star Clique coder, a1tmaniac.
With the ORG + STD DEV indicator, you will be able to view ORG’s and their projections on the ETH (Electronic Trading Hours) chart.

True Range OscHey fellow traders! I've just published a new indicator called the True Range Oscillator. It's designed to help you better understand price movements and volatility. The indicator calculates the average true range of the price data and uses a modified z-score-like approach to normalize it. The main difference is that it uses true range instead of standard deviation for normalization.
This oscillator identifies the highest and lowest values within a specified range, excluding any outliers based on standard deviations. It then scales the output between 0 and 100, so you can easily see how the current price action compares to its historical range. You can use the True Range Oscillator to spot potential trend reversals and overbought/oversold conditions.
Here are some features to explore:
Customize your price data source (open, high, low, or close).
Adjust the length and smoothing settings for the average true range calculation.
Find outliers with standard deviations, and tweak the outlier_level and dev_lookback options.
Visualize price action with plotted lines for the upper range (70), lower range (30), and center line (50), along with a shaded area between the upper and lower ranges for added clarity.
I hope you find this indicator useful in your trading journey!
Higher Time Frame Average True RangesPurpose: This script will help an options trader asses risk and determine good entry and exit strategies
Background Information: The true range is the greatest of: current high minus the current low; the absolute value of the current high minus the previous close; and the absolute value of the current low minus the previous close. The Average True Range (ATR) is a 14-day moving average of the true range. Traders use the ATR indicator to assess volatility in stocks and decide when to enter and exit trades. It is important to note the limitations of using True Range and ATR: These indications cannot tell you the direction of your options trade (call vs. put) and they cannot tell you whether a particular trend is about to reverse. However, it can be used to assess if volatility has peaked for a particular direction and time period.
How this script works: This indicator calculates true range for the daily (DTR), weekly (WTR), and monthly (MTR) time frames and compares it to the Average True Range (ATR) for each of those time frames (DATR, WATR, and MATR). The comparison is displayed into a colored table in the upper right-hand corner of the screen. When a daily, weekly, or monthly true range reaches 80% of its respective ATR, the row for that time frame will turn Orange indicating medium risk for staying in the trade. If the true range goes above 100% of the respective ATR, then the row will turn Red indicating high risk for staying in the trade. When the row for a time period turns red, volatility for the time period has likely peaked and traders should heavily consider taking profits. It is important to note these calculations start at different times for each time frame: Daily (Today’s Open), Weekly (Monday’s Open), Monthly (First of the Month’s Open). This means if it’s the 15th of the month then the Monthly True Range is being calculated for the trading days in the first half of the month (approximately 10 trade days).
The script also plots three sets of horizontal dotted lines to visually represent the ATR for each time period. Each set is generated by adding and subtracting the daily, weekly, and monthly ATRs from that time periods open price. For example, the weekly ATR is added and subtracted from Mondays open price to visually represent the true range for that week. The DATR is represented by red lines, the WATR is represented by the green lines, and the MATR is represented by the blue lines. These plots could also be used to assess risk as well.
How to use this script: Use the table to assess risk and determine potential exit strategies (Green=Low Risk, Orange=Medium Risk, Red=High Risk. Use the dotted lines to speculate what a stock’s price could be in a given time period (Daily=Red, Weekly=Green, and Monthly=Blue). And don’t forget the true range’s calculation and plots starts at the beginning of each time period!
Demand VectorCreate lines based on the demand for long/short, extracted from price range.. this lines have nothing to do with volume and liquidity, its just a interpretation of price range.
_CM_BarRange_PercentileI know a Trader that went 18 months without a losing trade. This Trader averaged trading 700-800 contracts per month in the Futures markets.
The was not his only system but here were his rules.
He looked at the 60 minute bar and calculated the ranges of the bars over the last 3 months. IF the range of the Bar was Greater Than the 99th Percentile, He would Fade that move or take the trade in the opposite direction.
Thought process is If the Price Bar is Greater Than the 99th Percentile then typically the market reverses. This happens a lot of times at news events. If you’ve studied the markets long enough you know if a Nes based event causes a Huge Move, which we define as Greater than the 99th Percentile, the Market typically moves in the opposite direction.
***This is dependent on the Instrument your trading and the time frame your trading. Some Instruments and time frames this signals a continuation move.
I also added in the Low of the Range based on the 99th Percentile. Often times Low Range Bars…especially if they appear at the top of a swing move, or the bottom of a swing move…create a high probability entry once the High or Low of the bar is taken out in the opposite direction of the previous move…The Low Range bars show indecision after a strong move and create great reversal opportunities.
Works on All Time Frames…again depending on the instrument your trading.
On instruments that MOVE or have High Volatility like Crude and Oil you can get great signals on 1 minute bars.
***Code includes ability to pick ham many bars you want your Look Back Period To Be.
***You can change the percentages to use the 99th Percentile, or 95th percentile, etc…
***The Green Line is the Value of the High Range Percentile.
***The Red Line is the Value of the Low Range Percentile.
***Plots a Magenta Cross on the Red Line if the Range is Below the Low Range Percentile.
***Plots a yellow Cross on the Green Line if the Range is Greater Than the High Range Percentile.
***The Aqua line is the Midpoint of the Range. Or the Average Price Move.
***Colors the Price Bar Yellow if the Range exceeds the High Range Percentile.
***Colors The Bar Magenta if the Range is Less Than the Low Range Percentile
***All parameters can be turned on or off via Check Boxes in the Inputs Tab

Candle Range DetectorCandle Range Detector
// Pine Script v6
// Detects candle-based ranges, mitigations, and sweeps with advanced logic
Overview
This indicator automatically detects price ranges based on candle containment, then tracks when those ranges are mitigated (broken) and when a sweep occurs. It is designed for traders who want to identify liquidity events and range breaks with precision.
How It Works
- Range Detection: A range is formed when a candle is fully contained within the previous candle (its high is lower and its low is higher). This marks a potential area of price balance or liquidity.
- Mitigation: A range is considered mitigated when price closes beyond its extension levels (configurable by normal or Fibonacci logic). This signals that the range has been invalidated or "taken out" by price action.
- Sweep Detection: After mitigation, the script watches for a sweep event: a candle that both trades through the range extreme and closes decisively beyond the log-mid of the candle itself. This is a strong sign of a liquidity grab or stop run.
- Alerts & Visuals: You can enable alerts and on-chart labels for sweeps. Only the most recent mitigated range can be swept, and each range can only be swept once.
- Timeframe Sensitivity: On weekly or monthly charts, a candle can both mitigate and sweep a range on the same bar. On lower timeframes, only one event can occur per bar.
Why It Works
- Candle containment is a robust way to identify natural price ranges and liquidity pools, as it reflects where price is consolidating or being absorbed.
- Mitigation marks the moment when a range is no longer defended, often leading to new directional moves.
- Sweeps are powerful signals of stop hunts or liquidity grabs, especially when confirmed by a close beyond the log-mid of the candle, indicating strong intent.
Visual Explanation
Tip: Use this tool to spot high-probability reversal or continuation zones, and to get alerted to key liquidity events in real time.

If a bar’s time is within the specified range, the indicator updates the highest price if the current bar's high exceeds the previously recorded high, and it updates the lowest price if the current bar's low is lower than the previously recorded low.
Drawing Lines:
A red horizontal line is drawn at the highest price, and a green horizontal line is drawn at the lowest price. Both lines start from the first bar in the range and extend dynamically to the current bar, updating as new high or low values are reached.
End of Range: Once a bar's time exceeds the end timestamp, the lines stop updating.
This tool offers a clear and straightforward way to monitor key price levels during a defined period without any extra fluff.
Average Price Range Screener [KFB Quant]Average Price Range Screener
Overview:
The Average Price Range Screener is a technical analysis tool designed to provide insights into the average price volatility across multiple symbols over user-defined time periods. The indicator compares price ranges from different assets and displays them in a visual table and chart for easy reference. This can be especially helpful for traders looking to identify symbols with high or low volatility across various time frames.
Key Features:
Multiple Symbols Supported:
The script allows for analysis of up to 10 symbols, such as major cryptocurrencies and market indices. Symbols can be selected by the user and configured for tracking price volatility.
Dynamic Range Calculation:
The script calculates the average price range of each symbol over three distinct time periods (default are 30, 60, and 90 bars). The price range for each symbol is calculated as a percentage of the bar's high-to-low difference relative to its low value.
Range Visualization:
The results are visually represented using:
- A color-coded table showing the calculated average ranges of each symbol and the current chart symbol.
- A line plot that visually tracks the volatility for each symbol on the chart, with color gradients representing the range intensity from low (red/orange) to high (blue/green).
Customizable Inputs:
- Length Inputs: Users can define the time lengths (default are 30, 60, and 90 bars) for calculating average price ranges for each symbol.
- Symbol Inputs: 10 symbols can be tracked at once, with default values set to popular crypto pairs and indices.
- Color Inputs: Users can customize the color scheme for the range values displayed in the table and chart.
Real-Time Ranking:
The indicator ranks symbols by their average price range, providing a clear view of which assets are exhibiting higher volatility at any given time.
Each symbol's range value is color-coded based on its relative volatility within the selected symbols (using a gradient from low to high range).
Data Table:
The table shows the average range values for each symbol in real-time, allowing users to compare volatility across multiple assets at a glance. The table is dynamically updated as new data comes in.
Interactive Labels:
The indicator adds labels to the chart, showing the average range for each symbol. These labels adjust in real-time as the price range values change, giving users an immediate view of volatility rankings.
How to Use:
Set Time Periods: Adjust the time periods (lengths) to match your trading strategy's timeframe and volatility preference.
Symbol Selection: Add and track the price range for your preferred symbols (cryptocurrencies, stocks, indices).
Monitor Volatility: Use the visual table and plot to identify symbols with higher or lower volatility, and adjust your trading strategy accordingly.
Interpret the Table and Chart: Ranges that are color-coded from red/orange (lower volatility) to blue/green (higher volatility) allow you to quickly gauge which symbols are most volatile.

Consolidation Score ScreenerIn trading, a consolidation range is like a timeout after a big move in the price of a stock or symbol.
It's when the market takes a breather, neither pushing the price up nor down too hard.
Visually, it looks like the price moving sideways on a chart , with highs and lows staying within a certain range.
so this indicator is created to help myself and you decide if its a ranging market and what's the score of that consolidation range
The score ranges between 0 and 10 , where 10 is the max consolidation score , meaning this stock or the symbol is at its highest peak of consolidation .
What would you see using this indicator ?
Symbols circles , inside these circles it will print the consolidation score ..
in the middle of the indicator it will show the range of all the 20 symbols scores .
so it will give you like overall ranging value for your 20 symbols
Settings :
TimeFrame : TimeFrame input to select which time frame you want your indicator to analysis
Range length : The Range that you would want your indicator to take into consideration when doing its analysis .
Features :
20 symbols analysis
Multi timeframe capability

888 BOT #alerts█ 888 BOT #alerts (open source)
This is an Expert Advisor 'EA' or Automated trading script for ‘longs’ and ‘shorts’, which uses only a Take Profit or, in the worst case, a Stop Loss to close the trade.
It's a much improved version of the previous ‘Repanocha’. It doesn`t use 'Trailing Stop' or 'security ()' functions (although using a security function doesn`t mean that the script repaints) and all signals are confirmed, therefore the script doesn`t repaint in alert mode and is accurate in backtest mode.
Apart from the previous indicators, some more and other functions have been added for Stop-Loss, re-entry and leverage.
It uses 8 indicators, (many of you already know what they are, but in case there is someone new), these are the following:
1. Jurik Moving Average
It's a moving average created by Mark Jurik for professionals which eliminates the 'lag' or delay of the signal. It's better than other moving averages like EMA , DEMA , AMA or T3.
There are two ways to decrease noise using JMA . Increasing the 'LENGTH' parameter will cause JMA to move more slowly and therefore reduce noise at the expense of adding 'lag'
The 'JMA LENGTH', 'PHASE' and 'POWER' parameters offer a way to select the optimal balance between 'lag' and over boost.
Green: Bullish , Red: Bearish .
2. Range filter
Created by Donovan Wall, its function is to filter or eliminate noise and to better determine the price trend in the short term.
First, a uniform average price range 'SAMPLING PERIOD' is calculated for the filter base and multiplied by a specific quantity 'RANGE MULTIPLIER'.
The filter is then calculated by adjusting price movements that do not exceed the specified range.
Finally, the target ranges are plotted to show the prices that will trigger the filter movement.
Green: Bullish , Red: Bearish .
3. Average Directional Index ( ADX Classic) and ( ADX Masanakamura)
It's an indicator designed by Welles Wilder to measure the strength and direction of the market trend. The price movement is strong when the ADX has a positive slope and is above a certain minimum level 'ADX THRESHOLD' and for a given period 'ADX LENGTH'.
The green color of the bars indicates that the trend is bullish and that the ADX is above the level established by the threshold.
The red color of the bars indicates that the trend is down and that the ADX is above the threshold level.
The orange color of the bars indicates that the price is not strong and will surely lateralize.
You can choose between the classic option and the one created by a certain 'Masanakamura'. The main difference between the two is that in the first it uses RMA () and in the second SMA () in its calculation.
4. Parabolic SAR
This indicator, also created by Welles Wilder, places points that help define a trend. The Parabolic SAR can follow the price above or below, the peculiarity that it offers is that when the price touches the indicator, it jumps to the other side of the price (if the Parabolic SAR was below the price it jumps up and vice versa) to a distance predetermined by the indicator. At this time the indicator continues to follow the price, reducing the distance with each candle until it is finally touched again by the price and the process starts again. This procedure explains the name of the indicator: the Parabolic SAR follows the price generating a characteristic parabolic shape, when the price touches it, stops and turns ( SAR is the acronym for 'stop and reverse'), giving rise to a new cycle. When the points are below the price, the trend is up, while the points above the price indicate a downward trend.
5. RSI with Volume
This indicator was created by LazyBear from the popular RSI .
The RSI is an oscillator-type indicator used in technical analysis and also created by Welles Wilder that shows the strength of the price by comparing individual movements up or down in successive closing prices.
LazyBear added a volume parameter that makes it more accurate to the market movement.
A good way to use RSI is by considering the 50 'RSI CENTER LINE' centerline. When the oscillator is above, the trend is bullish and when it is below, the trend is bearish .
6. Moving Average Convergence Divergence ( MACD ) and ( MAC-Z )
It was created by Gerald Appel. Subsequently, the histogram was added to anticipate the crossing of MA. Broadly speaking, we can say that the MACD is an oscillator consisting of two moving averages that rotate around the zero line. The MACD line is the difference between a short moving average 'MACD FAST MA LENGTH' and a long moving average 'MACD SLOW MA LENGTH'. It's an indicator that allows us to have a reference on the trend of the asset on which it is operating, thus generating market entry and exit signals.
We can talk about a bull market when the MACD histogram is above the zero line, along with the signal line, while we are talking about a bear market when the MACD histogram is below the zero line.
There is the option of using the MAC-Z indicator created by LazyBear, which according to its author is more effective, by using the parameter VWAP ( volume weighted average price ) 'Z-VWAP LENGTH' together with a standard deviation 'STDEV LENGTH' in its calculation.
7. Volume Condition
Volume indicates the number of participants in this war between bulls and bears, the more volume the more likely the price will move in favor of the trend. A low trading volume indicates a lower number of participants and interest in the instrument in question. Low volumes may reveal weakness behind a price movement.
With this condition, those signals whose volume is less than the volume SMA for a period 'SMA VOLUME LENGTH' multiplied by a factor 'VOLUME FACTOR' are filtered. In addition, it determines the leverage used, the more volume , the more participants, the more probability that the price will move in our favor, that is, we can use more leverage. The leverage in this script is determined by how many times the volume is above the SMA line.
The maximum leverage is 8.
8. Bollinger Bands
This indicator was created by John Bollinger and consists of three bands that are drawn superimposed on the price evolution graph.
The central band is a moving average, normally a simple moving average calculated with 20 periods is used. ('BB LENGTH' Number of periods of the moving average)
The upper band is calculated by adding the value of the simple moving average X times the standard deviation of the moving average. ('BB MULTIPLIER' Number of times the standard deviation of the moving average)
The lower band is calculated by subtracting the simple moving average X times the standard deviation of the moving average.
the band between the upper and lower bands contains, statistically, almost 90% of the possible price variations, which means that any movement of the price outside the bands has special relevance.
In practical terms, Bollinger bands behave as if they were an elastic band so that, if the price touches them, it has a high probability of bouncing.
Sometimes, after the entry order is filled, the price is returned to the opposite side. If price touch the Bollinger band in the same previous conditions, another order is filled in the same direction of the position to improve the average entry price, (% MINIMUM BETTER PRICE ': Minimum price for the re-entry to be executed and that is better than the price of the previous position in a given %) in this way we give the trade a chance that the Take Profit is executed before. The downside is that the position is doubled in size. 'ACTIVATE DIVIDE TP': Divide the size of the TP in half. More probability of the trade closing but less profit.
█ STOP LOSS and RISK MANAGEMENT.
A good risk management is what can make your equity go up or be liquidated.
The % risk is the percentage of our capital that we are willing to lose by operation. This is recommended to be between 1-5%.
% Risk: (% Stop Loss x % Equity per trade x Leverage) / 100
First the strategy is calculated with Stop Loss, then the risk per operation is determined and from there, the amount per operation is calculated and not vice versa.
In this script you can use a normal Stop Loss or one according to the ATR. Also activate the option to trigger it earlier if the risk percentage is reached. '% RISK ALLOWED' wich is calculated according with: '%EQUITY ON EACH ENTRY'. Only works with Stop Loss on 'NORMAL' or 'BOTH' mode.
'STOP LOSS CONFIRMED': The Stop Loss is only activated if the closing of the previous bar is in the loss limit condition. It's useful to prevent the SL from triggering when they do a ‘pump’ to sweep Stops and then return the price to the previous state.
█ ALERTS
There is an alert for each leverage, therefore a maximum of 8 alerts can be set for 'long' and 8 for 'short', plus an alert to close the trade with Take Profit or Stop Loss in market mode. You can also place Take Profit limit and Stop Loss limit orders a few seconds after filling the position entry order.
- 'MAXIMUM LEVERAGE': It is the maximum allowed multiplier of the % quantity entered on each entry for 1X according to the volume condition.
- 'ADVANCE ALERTS': There is always a time delay from when the alert is triggered until it reaches the exchange and can be between 1-15 seconds. With this parameter, you can advance the alert by the necessary seconds to activate it earlier. In this way it can be synchronized with the exchange so that the execution time of the entry order to the position coincides with the opening of the bar.
The settings are for Bitcoin at Binance Futures (BTC: USDTPERP) in 15 minutes.
For other pairs and other timeframes, the settings have to be adjusted again. And within a month, the settings will be different because we all know the market and the trend are changing.
