Ensemble Consensus System
The Ensemble Consensus System (ECS) brings a **Random Forest-style ensemble vote** to Pine Script: five orthogonal "expert" strategies each cast a bull/bear vote (+1/-1/0), and only high-confidence consensus moves become signals—dramatically reducing noise while capturing strong directional moves.
## What Makes This Original
ECS is the first Pine Script indicator to implement true machine learning-style ensemble voting. Rather than relying on a single methodology, five independent experts analyze different market dimensions:
• **Trend Expert**: Multi-timeframe EMA alignment analysis
• **Momentum Expert**: RSI/MACD/Stochastic confluence with consistency filters
• **Volume Expert**: Proprietary volume pressure + OBV confirmation
• **Volatility Expert**: Bollinger Band mean reversion opportunities
• **Structure Expert**: Adaptive pivot-based support/resistance detection
## How It Works
The system requires consensus among experts, with an **adaptive threshold** based on market volatility:
| Volatility Regime | ATR/Close | Votes Required |
|-------------------|-----------|----------------|
| Low Volatility | <1% | 2+ |
| Normal Markets | 1-2% | 3+ |
| High Volatility | >2% | 4+ |
This dynamic adjustment prevents overtrading in choppy conditions while maintaining responsiveness during strong trends.
## Key Features
### Signals
• **Visual entry points** with strength percentage (60% = 3/5 experts agree)
• **Adaptive thresholds** that adjust to market conditions
• **Multi-expert consensus** reduces false signals
### Risk Control
• **Dynamic stop-loss/take-profit** based on ATR
• **Regime-adjusted targets** (±50% in volatile markets)
• **Visual SL/TP lines** with exact price labels
### Analytics
• **Real-time vote panel** showing each expert's stance
• **Performance tracking** with win rate and P/L
• **Market regime indicator** (Trending/Ranging/Volatile)
• **Light Mode** for better performance on slower systems
## How to Use
1. **Apply ECS** to a liquid instrument on 15m-4H timeframe (best: 1H)
2. **Wait for signal** - green ▲ for long, red ▼ for short with strength %
3. **Verify votes** - check panel to see which experts agree
4. **Execute trade** using the displayed SL/TP levels
5. **Monitor regime** - be cautious if market regime changes
### Quick Start Settings
• **Standard Trading**: Use defaults (3 votes, adaptive mode ON)
• **Conservative**: Increase to 4 votes minimum
• **Aggressive**: Reduce to 2 votes, tighten stops
## Important Limitations
• **Chart Types**: Not compatible with Renko/Heikin-Ashi
• **Volume Data**: Requires reliable volume (forex pairs may underperform)
• **News Events**: Signals may lag during gaps/major announcements
• **Processing**: Heavy calculations - use Light Mode if needed
## Settings Guide
**Ensemble Controls**
• `Minimum Votes` (default: 3): Base threshold before volatility adjustment
• `Adaptive Mode` (default: ON): Auto-adjusts threshold by market volatility
**Visual Options**
• `Vote Panel`: Live expert voting display
• `Performance Stats`: Win rate and trade tracking
• `Light Mode`: Disables heavy visuals for speed
**Risk Parameters**
• `Stop Multiplier` (default: 2.0): ATR multiple for stop-loss
• `TP Multiplier` (default: 3.0): ATR multiple for take-profit
• `Dynamic TP` (default: ON): Adjusts targets by market regime
## Troubleshooting
**Too few signals?**
→ Lower minimum votes or check if market is ranging
**Indicator running slow?**
→ Enable Light Mode, disable performance tracking
**Weird volume votes?**
→ Verify your symbol has accurate volume data
## Technical Concepts
The ensemble approach mimics **Random Forest algorithms** where multiple decision trees vote on outcomes. By requiring agreement among experts using orthogonal methodologies, ECS filters out signals that would fail under different market lenses. The adaptive threshold addresses fixed-parameter weakness by dynamically adjusting selectivity based on volatility.
• Adaptive pivot lookback for dynamic structure detection
• Safe volume pressure calculation preventing division errors
• Momentum consistency filter reducing choppy false signals
• Unified dashboard merging vote panel + performance stats
• Regime-based dynamic take-profit adjustment

TEMA with Slope Color [MrBuCha]This TEMA indicator is particularly useful for trend following strategies. The key innovation here is using a higher timeframe (default 1-hour) to get a broader perspective on the trend direction, while the color-coding makes it immediately obvious whether the momentum is bullish (blue) or bearish (orange).
The 200-period length makes this more suitable for swing trading rather than day trading, as it filters out short-term noise and focuses on significant trend movements.
//
What is TEMA and How Does It Work?
TEMA (Triple Exponential Moving Average) is a technical indicator that builds upon the standard EMA to reduce lag and provide faster response to price changes. The calculation process is:
EMA1 = EMA of closing price with specified length
EMA2 = EMA of EMA1 with the same length
EMA3 = EMA of EMA2 with the same length
TEMA = 3 × (EMA1 - EMA2) + EMA3
This formula helps reduce the lag inherent in smoothing calculations, making TEMA more responsive to price movements compared to other moving averages.
Default Values
Length: 200 periods
Timeframe: "60" (1 hour)
Slope Colors
Blue: When TEMA is trending upward (tema_current > tema_previous)
Orange: When TEMA is trending downward (tema_current ≤ tema_previous)
Pros and Cons Summary
Advantages:
Fast Response: Reduces lag better than SMA and regular EMA
Easy to Use: Color-coded slope makes trend direction immediately visible
Multi-timeframe Capability: Can display TEMA from higher timeframes
Trend Following: Excellent for identifying trend direction
Visual Clarity: Clear color signals help with quick decision making
Disadvantages:
False Signals: Prone to whipsaws in sideways/choppy markets
Noise in Volatility: Frequent color changes during high volatility periods
Not Suitable for Scalping: Length of 200 is quite long for short-term trading
Still Lagging: Despite improvements, it remains a lagging indicator
Requires Confirmation: Should be used with other indicators for better accuracy
Best Use Cases:
Medium to long-term trend following
Identifying major trend changes
Multi-timeframe analysis
Combine with momentum oscillators for confirmation
Trading Tips:
Wait for color confirmation before entering trades
Use higher timeframe TEMA for overall trend bias
Combine with support/resistance levels
Avoid trading during consolidation periods
Cap's Dual Auto Fib RetracementThis will draw both a bullish retracement and a bearish retracement. It's defaulted to just show the 0.618 level as I feel like this is the "make or break" level.
- A close below the bullish 0.618 retracement would be considered very bearish.
- A close above the bearish 0.618 would be considered very bullish.
(You can still configure whichever levels you want, however.)
This script was removed by TradingView last time it was published. I couldn't find another script that would provide both bearish/bullish retracements, so I'm assuming this is "original" enough. Maybe it was removed because the description wasn't long enough, so...
Detailed Description:
This indicator automatically plots Fibonacci retracement levels based on zigzag pivot points for both bullish (low-to-high) and bearish (high-to-low) price movements. It identifies key pivot points using a customizable deviation multiplier and depth setting, then draws Fibonacci levels (0, 0.236, 0.382, 0.5, 0.618, 0.786, 1) with user-defined visibility and colors for each level.
Features:
Deviation: Adjusts sensitivity for detecting pivots (default: 2).
Depth: Sets minimum bars for pivot calculation (default: 10).
Extend Lines: Option to extend lines left, right, or both.
Show Prices/Levels: Toggle price and level labels, with options for value or percentage display.
Labels Position: Choose left or right label placement.
Background Transparency: Customize fill transparency between levels.
Alerts: Triggers when price crosses any Fibonacci level.
Usage: Apply to any chart to visualize potential support/resistance zones. Adjust settings to suit your trading style. Requires sufficient data; use lower timeframes or reduce depth if pivots are not detected.
Note: This is a technical analysis tool and does not provide trading signals or financial advice. Always conduct your own research.

SuperTrend Confluence Signals [AlgoAlpha]OVERVIEW
This script enhances the classic SuperTrend indicator by integrating volume dynamics, retracement detection, and a multi-asset trend matrix—alongside an automatic mitigation-level drawing system. It's designed for traders who want to see not just trend direction, but the confluence of trend strength, volatility-adjusted retracements, and capital flow through volume pressure. It visually maps key transitions in market structure while offering a clean, color-coded overview of multiple symbols and timeframes in a single chart.
CONCEPTS
At the core is the traditional SuperTrend , which determines directional bias using Average True Range (ATR) with a volatility multiplier. This script overlays that with a dynamic volume histogram that scales relative to recent volume standard deviation, coloring volume bursts within the trend. Retracement signals are triggered when price pulls back toward the SuperTrend level but respects it—quantified through normalized distance sensitivity. On top of that, the indicator automatically draws and manages horizontal support/resistance zones that appear at key trend shifts. These levels persist and are cleared based on configurable rules such as wick/body sweeps or consecutive candle closes. A multi-asset, multi-timeframe table then gives an instant snapshot of trend status across five user-defined symbols and timeframes.
FEATURES
SuperTrend : Configurable ATR length and multiplier for flexible trend sensitivity.
Volumetric Histogram : Gradient-filled candles anchored to SuperTrend bands, scaled by relative volume to indicate activity intensity during trends.
Retracement Arrows : Signals printed when price nears the SuperTrend level without breaking it, allowing identification of high-probability continuation zones.
Volume TP Markers : Diamond markers flag high-volume events, contextualizing price moves with liquidity bursts.
Automatic Structure Levels : Draws clean horizontal lines at significant trend transitions, with optional volatility-based band fills. These levels self-update and clear based on price interaction logic.
Trend Table : Displays trend direction (▲/▼) across five assets and five timeframes. Each cell is colored according to trend bias, providing a compact overview for multi-market confluence.
USAGE
Start by loading the indicator on your main chart and adjusting the ATR Length and Multiplier to match your strategy timeframe. Use lower values for scalping and higher values for swing trading. The histogram bars will appear as colored candles above or below the SuperTrend level, indicating how strong volume is within that trend. Arrow signals suggest minor pullbacks within the trend, which can act as entry opportunities. The level system will automatically plot key price zones during trend flips; if "Body" is selected for mitigation, price must close through the level to invalidate it. If "Wick" is chosen, a single wick breach is enough. Adjust expiry and rejection settings to fine-tune how long levels stay on chart. Finally, enable the Multi-Asset Table to view live trend signals across popular symbols like AAPL or NVDA in different timeframes, helping spot macro-to-micro alignment for higher-confidence trades.
BVB dominance bars
Hello everyone, this is my first indicator. these candles shows you who's in control. I like to think its some what close to heikin ashi candles as it shows you the Trend but doesn't average it out. also shows you when there is indecision. please read the instructions on how it works. its not a stand alone strategy. but adds value to your own strategy.
📖 How It Works
The BvB Dominance Bars indicator is a visual tool that colors candles based on market control—whether bulls or bears are in charge. It uses a custom metric comparing the price's relationship to a smoothed moving average (EMA), then normalizes that difference over time to express relative bullish or bearish pressure.
Here’s the breakdown:
Bulls vs Bears Logic:
A short-term EMA (default: 14-period) is used to establish a midpoint reference.
Bull Pressure is calculated as how far the high is above this EMA.
Bear Pressure is how far the low is below this EMA.
These are normalized over a lookback period (default: 120 bars) to produce percentile scores (0–100) for both bulls and bears.
Dominance & Color Coding:
The indicator compares normalized bull and bear scores.
Candles are color-coded based on:
Bright Lime: Strong Bull Dominance (with high confidence)
Soft Lime/Yellow: Moderate Bull Control
Bright Red: Strong Bear Dominance
Soft Red/Yellow: Moderate Bear Control
Gray: Neutral/Low conviction
Optional Live Label:
A small floating label shows who has control: “Bull Control,” “Bear Control,” or “Neutral.”
🧠 How to Use It (Example Strategy)
The BvB Dominance Bars indicator is not a standalone buy/sell signal but a market sentiment overlay. It’s most effective when combined with your own strategy, like price action or trend-following tools.
Here’s an example use case:
🧪 Reversal Confirmation Strategy
Objective: Catch high-probability reversals during key kill zones or supply/demand levels.
Setup:
Mark your key support/resistance zones using your standard method (e.g., FVGs, liquidity sweeps, or ICT PD arrays).
Wait for price to reach one of these zones.
Watch candle colors from the BvB Dominance Bars:
If you expect a bullish reversal, wait for a transition from red/gray candles to lime green or bright lime (bullish dominance taking over).
If you expect a bearish reversal, look for a change from green/gray to red or bright red.
Entry Filter:
Only enter if the dominant color holds for 2+ candles.
Avoid trades when candles are gray or yellow (indecision/neutral).
Exit Option:
Exit if dominance shifts against you (e.g., from lime to red), or use structure-based stops.
⚙️ Settings You Can Adjust:
BvB Period: Controls how fast EMA responds.
Bars Back: Determines how long the normalization looks back.
Thresholds: Influence how strong the dominance must be to change candle color.
✅ Best Used When:
You already have a bias and just want a confirmation of sentiment.
You're trading intraday and want a feel for shifting momentum without relying on noisy indicators.
You want a clean, color-coded overlay to help filter out fakeouts and indecision.
Delta Volume Profile [BigBeluga]🔵Delta Volume Profile
A dynamic volume analysis tool that builds two separate horizontal profiles: one for bullish candles and one for bearish candles. This indicator helps traders identify the true balance of buying vs. selling volume across price levels, highlighting points of control (POCs), delta dominance, and hidden volume clusters with remarkable precision.
🔵 KEY FEATURES
Split Volume Profiles (Bull vs. Bear):
The indicator separates volume based on candle direction:
If close > open , the candle’s volume is added to the bullish profile (positive volume).
If close < open , it contributes to the bearish profile (negative volume).
ATR-Based Binning:
The price range over the selected lookback is split into bins using ATR(200) as the bin height.
Each bin accumulates both bull and bear volumes to form the dual-sided profile.
Bull and Bear Volume Bars:
Bullish volumes are shown as right-facing bars on the right side, colored with a bullish gradient.
Bearish volumes appear as left-facing bars on the left side, shaded with a bearish gradient.
Each bar includes a volume label (e.g., +12.45K or -9.33K) to show exact volume at that price level.
Points of Control (POC) Highlighting:
The bin with the highest bullish volume is marked with a border in POC+ color (default: blue).
The bin with the highest bearish volume is marked with a POC− color (default: orange).
Total Volume Density Map:
A neutral gray background box is plotted behind candles showing the total volume (bull + bear) per bin.
This reveals high-interest price zones regardless of direction.
Delta and Total Volume Summary:
A Delta label appears at the top, showing net % difference between bull and bear volume.
A Total label at the bottom shows total accumulated volume across all bins.
🔵 HOW IT WORKS
The indicator captures all candles within the lookback period .
It calculates the price range and splits it into bins using ATR for adaptive resolution.
For each candle:
If price intersects a bin and close > open , volume is added to the positive profile .
If close < open , volume is added to the negative profile .
The result is two side-by-side histograms at each price level—one for buyers, one for sellers.
The bin with the highest value on each side is visually emphasized using POC highlight colors.
At the end, the script calculates:
Delta: Total % difference between bull and bear volumes.
Total: Sum of all volumes in the lookback window.
🔵 USAGE
Volume Imbalance Zones: Identify price levels where buyers or sellers were clearly dominant.
Fade or Follow Volume Clusters: Use POC+ or POC− levels for reaction trades or breakouts.
Delta Strength Filtering: Strong delta values (> ±20%) suggest momentum or exhaustion setups.
Volume-Based Anchoring: Use profile levels to mark hidden support/resistance and execution zones.
🔵 CONCLUSION
Delta Volume Profile offers a unique advantage in market reading by separating buyer and seller activity into two visual layers. This allows traders to not only spot where volume was high, but also who was more aggressive. Whether you’re analyzing trend continuations, reversals, or absorption levels, this indicator gives you the transparency needed to trade with confidence.
True Range eXpansion🕯️ TRX — True Range eXpansion
Clean Candle Bodies · Volatility Bands · Adaptive Range Envelope System
Not your grandfather’s candles. Not your brokerage’s bands.
----------------------------------------------------
TRX begins with a simple concept: visualize the true range of every candle, without the noise of flickering wicks.
From there, it grows into a fully adaptive price visualization framework.
What started as a candle-only visualizer evolved into a modular, user-controlled price engine.
From wickless candle clarity to dynamic volatility envelopes, TRX adapts to you.
There are plenty of band and channel indicators out there — Bollinger, Keltner, Donchian, Envelope, the whole crew.
But none of them are built on the true candle range, adaptive ATR shaping, and full user control like TRX.
This isn’t just another indicator — it’s a new framework.
Most bands and channels are based on close price and statistical deviation — useful, but limited.
TRX uses the full true range of each candle as its foundation, then applies customizable smoothing and directional ATR scaling to form a dynamic, volatility-reactive envelope.
The result? Bands that breathe with the market — not lag behind it.
----------------------------------------------------
🔧 Core Features:
🕯️ True Range Candles — Each candle is plotted from low to high, body-only, colored by open/close.
📈 Adjustable High/Low Moving Averages — Select your smoothing style: SMA, EMA, WMA, RMA, or HMA.
🌬️ ATR-Based Expansion — Bands dynamically breathe based on market volatility.
🔀 Per-Band Multipliers — Fine-tune expansion individually for the upper and lower bands.
⚖️ Basis Line — Optional centerline between bands for structure tracking and equilibrium zones.
🎛️ Full Visual Control — Width, transparency, color, on/off toggles for each element.
----------------------------------------------------
🧠 Default Use Case:
With the included default settings, TRX behaves like an evolved Bollinger Band system — based on True Range candle structure, not just close price and standard deviation.
----------------------------------------------------
🔄 How to Zero Out the Bands (for Minimalist Use):
Want just candles? A clean MA? Single band? You got it.
➤ Use TRX like a clean moving average:
• Set ATR Multiplier to 0
• Set both Band ATR Adjustments to 0
• Leave the Basis Line ON or OFF — your call
➤ Show only candles (no bands at all):
• Turn off "Show High/Low MAs"
• Turn off Basis Line
➤ Single-line ceiling or floor tracking:
• Set one band’s Transparency to 100
• Use the remaining band as a price envelope or support/resistance guide
----------------------------------------------------
🧬 Notes:
TRX can be made:
• Spiky or silky (via smoothing & ATR)
• Wide or tight (via multipliers)
• Subtle or aggressive (via color/transparency)
• Clean as a compass or dirty as a chaos meter
Built by accident. Tuned with intention.

Topological Market Stress (TMS) - Quantum FabricTopological Market Stress (TMS) - Quantum Fabric
What Stresses The Market?
Topological Market Stress (TMS) represents a revolutionary fusion of algebraic topology and quantum field theory applied to financial markets. Unlike traditional indicators that analyze price movements linearly, TMS examines the underlying topological structure of market data—detecting when the very fabric of market relationships begins to tear, warp, or collapse.
Drawing inspiration from the ethereal beauty of quantum field visualizations and the mathematical elegance of topological spaces, this indicator transforms complex mathematical concepts into an intuitive, visually stunning interface that reveals hidden market dynamics invisible to conventional analysis.
Theoretical Foundation: Topology Meets Markets
Topological Holes in Market Structure
In algebraic topology, a "hole" represents a fundamental structural break—a place where the normal connectivity of space fails. In markets, these topological holes manifest as:
Correlation Breakdown: When traditional price-volume relationships collapse
Volatility Clustering Failure: When volatility patterns lose their predictive power
Microstructure Stress: When market efficiency mechanisms begin to fail
The Mathematics of Market Topology
TMS constructs a topological space from market data using three key components:
1. Correlation Topology
ρ(P,V) = correlation(price, volume, period)
Hole Formation = 1 - |ρ(P,V)|
When price and volume decorrelate, topological holes begin forming.
2. Volatility Clustering Topology
σ(t) = volatility at time t
Clustering = correlation(σ(t), σ(t-1), period)
Breakdown = 1 - |Clustering|
Volatility clustering breakdown indicates structural instability.
3. Market Efficiency Topology
Efficiency = |price - EMA(price)| / ATR
Measures how far price deviates from its efficient trajectory.
Multi-Scale Topological Analysis
Markets exist across multiple temporal scales simultaneously. TMS analyzes topology at three distinct scales:
Micro Scale (3-15 periods): Immediate structural changes, market microstructure stress
Meso Scale (10-50 periods): Trend-level topology, medium-term structural shifts
Macro Scale (50-200 periods): Long-term structural topology, regime-level changes
The final stress metric combines all scales:
Combined Stress = 0.3×Micro + 0.4×Meso + 0.3×Macro
How TMS Works
1. Topological Space Construction
Each market moment is embedded in a multi-dimensional topological space where:
- Price efficiency forms one dimension
- Correlation breakdown forms another
- Volatility clustering breakdown forms the third
2. Hole Detection Algorithm
The indicator continuously scans this topological space for:
Hole Formation: When stress exceeds the formation threshold
Hole Persistence: How long structural breaks maintain
Hole Collapse: Sudden topology restoration (regime shifts)
3. Quantum Visualization Engine
The visualization system translates topological mathematics into intuitive quantum field representations:
Stress Waves: Main line showing topological stress intensity
Quantum Glow: Surrounding field indicating stress energy
Fabric Integrity: Background showing structural health
Multi-Scale Rings: Orbital representations of different timeframes
4. Signal Generation
Stable Topology (✨): Normal market structure, standard trading conditions
Stressed Topology (⚡): Increased structural tension, heightened volatility expected
Topological Collapse (🕳️): Major structural break, regime shift in progress
Critical Stress (🌋): Extreme conditions, maximum caution required

Lyapunov Market Instability (LMI)Lyapunov Market Instability (LMI)
What is Lyapunov Market Instability?
Lyapunov Market Instability (LMI) is a revolutionary indicator that brings chaos theory from theoretical physics into practical trading. By calculating Lyapunov exponents—a measure of how rapidly nearby trajectories diverge in phase space—LMI quantifies market sensitivity to initial conditions. This isn't another oscillator or trend indicator; it's a mathematical lens that reveals whether markets are in chaotic (trending) or stable (ranging) regimes.
Inspired by the meditative color field paintings of Mark Rothko, this indicator transforms complex chaos mathematics into an intuitive visual experience. The elegant simplicity of the visualization belies the sophisticated theory underneath—just as Rothko's seemingly simple color blocks contain profound depth.
Theoretical Foundation (Chaos Theory & Lyapunov Exponents)
In dynamical systems, the Lyapunov exponent (λ) measures the rate of separation of infinitesimally close trajectories:
λ > 0: System is chaotic—small changes lead to dramatically different outcomes (butterfly effect)
λ < 0: System is stable—trajectories converge, perturbations die out
λ ≈ 0: Edge of chaos—transition between regimes
Phase Space Reconstruction
Using Takens' embedding theorem , we reconstruct market dynamics in higher dimensions:
Time-delay embedding: Create vectors from price at different lags
Nearest neighbor search: Find historically similar market states
Trajectory evolution: Track how these similar states diverged over time
Divergence rate: Calculate average exponential separation
Market Application
Chaotic markets (λ > threshold): Strong trends emerge, momentum dominates, use breakout strategies
Stable markets (λ < threshold): Mean reversion dominates, fade extremes, range-bound strategies work
Transition zones: Market regime about to change, reduce position size, wait for confirmation
How LMI Works
1. Phase Space Construction
Each point in time is embedded as a vector using historical prices at specific delays (τ). This reveals the market's hidden attractor structure.
2. Lyapunov Calculation
For each current state, we:
- Find similar historical states within epsilon (ε) distance
- Track how these initially similar states evolved
- Measure exponential divergence rate
- Average across multiple trajectories for robustness
3. Signal Generation
Chaos signals: When λ crosses above threshold, market enters trending regime
Stability signals: When λ crosses below threshold, market enters ranging regime
Divergence detection: Price/Lyapunov divergences signal potential reversals
4. Rothko Visualization
Color fields: Background zones represent market states with Rothko-inspired palettes
Glowing line: Lyapunov exponent with intensity reflecting market state
Minimalist design: Focus on essential information without clutter

While both explore Lyapunov exponents, they represent independent implementations with different methodologies and applications. This indicator uses phase space reconstruction for regime detection, while his combines Lyapunov concepts with HP filtering.
