Dynamic Support & Resistance based on SMI CrossoverExplanation:
SMI Calculation: The script calculates the Stochastic Momentum Index (SMI) and its signal line using the specified input lengths.
Crossover Detection: It detects when the SMI crosses above (crossUp) or below (crossDown) its signal line.
Period Tracking: The script keeps track of up and down periods based on SMI crossovers. During an up period, it records the lowest low (support), and during a down period, it records the highest high (resistance).
Support and Resistance Levels: When a crossover occurs, it captures the highest or lowest value since the last crossover to define dynamic resistance and support levels.
Midline Calculation: The midline is calculated as the average of the current support and resistance levels.
Buy and Sell Signals: Buy signals are generated when the close price crosses above the midline, and sell signals are generated when it crosses below.
Plotting: The support, resistance, and midline are plotted on the upper chart. Buy and sell signals are indicated with arrows. Trendlines are added for visual clarity.
Note: This indicator should be used in conjunction with other analysis tools and is intended for educational purposes. Always perform thorough analysis before making trading decisions.
Like all technical indicators, this script is based on historical data and may not predict future market movements.
Always perform due diligence and consider multiple factors when making trading decisions.

ATAMOKU: A Hierarchical Scoring Tool Based on Ichimoku Principle
Overview and Purpose of ATAMOKU
The name "ATAMOKU" combines “Ata” (meaning “ancestor” in Turkish) and “Moku” (meaning “cloud” in Japanese). ATAMOKU is built on Ichimoku principles, designed to assist traders in analyzing trend direction and strength. By providing a structured, score-based approach, ATAMOKU aims to make Ichimoku data more accessible for identifying potential entry and exit points.
How ATAMOKU Works
ATAMOKU uses Ichimoku’s essential elements—including the Conversion Line (Tenkan-sen), Base Line (Kijun-sen), and Leading Spans A and B—and applies a scoring hierarchy to assess market conditions. The scoring system measures trend strength and alignment by comparing the relationships between these elements. This method allows ATAMOKU to produce an objective score that reflects whether the market is in an “ideal” or “non-ideal” state.
Key Features of ATAMOKU
1 - Hierarchy-Based Scoring System:
ATAMOKU calculates a score that represents the strength and direction of the current trend. Each component of Ichimoku is assigned a weight, and the indicator scores these components based on their hierarchical position. When all components align for an upward trend, ATAMOKU’s score will approach +364 (representing an ideal state). In contrast, a score of -364 indicates a non-ideal or bearish alignment.
2 - Optimal and Suboptimal Tracking:
ATAMOKU includes Optimal and Suboptimal markers to track the highest and lowest scores over a specific period, with a default of 52 periods. The Optimal score captures the highest recorded value within the period, while the Suboptimal score captures the lowest. These markers help traders gauge how current conditions compare to recent peaks and troughs, indicating market stability or volatility.
3 - Real-Time Scoring Display (Hierarchy Table):
ATAMOKU uses a Hierarchy Table adjacent to the main chart to present real-time scoring data for each Ichimoku component. This table displays values for Conversion Line, Base Line, Leading Spans, and Lagging Span, providing traders with a detailed view of each component’s contribution to the total score. By referencing the table, traders can understand the weight and impact of each Ichimoku element on the overall score.
4 - Histogram Visualization:
ATAMOKU’s scores are displayed on a histogram with green and red bars to indicate market sentiment. Green bars represent bullish conditions, while red bars indicate bearish conditions. This visual format allows traders to quickly assess trend direction and strength at a glance, providing context for decision-making.
5 - Signal and Smoothing Lines:
To help reduce noise, ATAMOKU features Signal and Smooth lines, which can be customized using different smoothing methods (such as SMA, EMA, or WMA). When the Signal and Smooth lines cross, the indicator will label the trend as UP or DOWN based on the direction of the crossover. This feature helps traders detect potential reversals or trend confirmations.
6 - Adjustable Settings:
* Scoring Weights: Traders can configure the relative weights of each Ichimoku component to match their analysis preferences.
* Smoothing Techniques: Users may choose from SMA, EMA, and WMA smoothing methods to adjust signal sensitivity.
* Period Adjustments: Scoring and smoothing period lengths can be customized to fit various trading styles and time frames.
Intended Use and Practical Application
ATAMOKU is best used alongside the Ichimoku Cloud, as its scoring and signal features complement the visual data provided by Ichimoku. The Hierarchy Score, combined with Optimal/Suboptimal markers, gives traders insight into the current market conditions and allows for comparisons across time. ATAMOKU is adaptable to any time frame and provides both trend analysis and potential entry/exit signals based on Ichimoku principles.
Legal Disclaimer
ATAMOKU is a technical analysis tool and does not guarantee profitability. It is designed to aid in decision-making by providing additional market insights. Traders are encouraged to exercise their judgment and assume responsibility for their trading actions.

Percent Trend Change [BigBeluga]The Percent Trend Change indicator is a trend-following tool that provides real-time percentage changes during trends based on entry prices. Using John Ehlers’ Ultimate Smoother filter, it detects trend direction, identifies uptrends and downtrends, and tracks percentage changes during the trend. Additionally, it has a channel that can be toggled on or off, and the width can be customized, adding an extra visual layer to assess trend strength and direction.
NIFTY50:
META:
🔵 IDEA
The Percent Trend Change indicator helps traders visualize the progression of a trend with percentage changes from entry points. It identifies trends and marks percentage changes during the trend, making it easier to assess the strength and sustainability of the ongoing trend.
The use of John Ehlers' Ultimate Smoother filter helps detect trend changes based on consecutive price movements over five bars, making it highly responsive to short- and medium-term trends.
🔵 KEY FEATURES & USAGE
◉ Ultimate Smoother Filter for Trend Detection:
The trend is detected using the Ultimate Smoother filter. If the smoothed line rises five times in a row, the indicator identifies an uptrend. If it falls five times in a row, it identifies a downtrend.
◉ Trend Entry with Price Labels:
The indicator marks trend entry points with up (green) and down (red) triangles. These triangles are labeled with the entry price, allowing traders to track the starting price of the trend.
◉ Percentage Change Labels During Trends:
During a trend, the indicator periodically plots percentage change labels based on the bar period set in the settings.
In an uptrend, positive changes are marked in green, while negative changes are marked in orange. In a downtrend, negative changes are marked in red, while positive changes are marked in orange.
Each plotted percentage label also includes a count of the trend points, allowing traders to track how many times the percentage labels have been plotted during the current trend.
These percentage labels help traders understand how much the price has changed since the trend began and can be used to define potential take-profit targets.
◉ Channel Toggle and Width Customization:
The indicator includes a channel that visually highlights the trend. Traders can toggle this channel on or off, and the width of the channel can be adjusted to match individual preferences. The channel helps visualize the overall trend direction and the range within which price fluctuations occur.
🔵 CUSTOMIZATION

Bars Percent: Defines how many bars must pass before a new percentage label is plotted. A smaller value plots labels more frequently, while a higher value shows fewer labels.
Channel Width & Show Channel: The width of the channel can be customized, and traders can toggle the channel on or off depending on their preferences.
Color Customization: Traders can customize the colors for the uptrend, downtrend, and percentage labels, providing flexibility in how the indicator is displayed on the chart.
By combining trend-following capabilities with percentage change tracking, the Percent Trend Change indicator offers a powerful tool for identifying trend direction and setting potential take-profit targets. The ability to customize the channel and percentage labels makes it adaptable to various trading strategies.
Portfolio SnapShot v0.3Here is a Tradingview Pinescript that I call "Portfolio Snapshot". It is based on two other separate scripts that I combined, modified and simplified - shoutout to RedKTrader (Portfolio Tracker - Table Version) and FriendOfTheTrend (Portfolio Tracker For Stocks & Crypto) for their inspiration and code. I was using both of these scripts, and decided to combine the two and increase the number of stocks to 20. I was looking for an easy way to track my entire portfolio (scattered across 5 accounts) PnL on a total and stock basis. PnL - that's it, very simple by design. The features are:
1) Track PnL across multiple accounts, from inception and current day.
2) PnL is reported in two tables, at the portfolio level and individual stock level
3) Both tables can be turned on/off and placed anywhere on the chart.
4) Input up to 20 assets (stocks, crypto, ETFs)
The user has to manually calculate total shares and average basis for stocks in multiple accounts, and then inputs this in the user input dialog. I update mine as each trade is made, or you can just update once a week or so.
I've pre-loaded it with the major indices and sector ETFs, plus URA, GLD, SLV. 100 shares of each, and prices are based on the close Jan 2 2024. So if you don't want to track your portfolio, you can use it to track other things you find interesting, such as annual performance of each sector.

The real breakout indicator CCI + Money Flow + Buy / SellComponents of the indicator
1. CCI (Commodity Channel Index)
The CCI component measures the deviation of the price from its statistical average. It is used to identify overbought or oversold conditions and is integrated into the trend logic to determine potential trend reversals. High values may indicate overbought conditions, while low values could signify oversold situations.
Detailed
The CCI (Commodity Channel Index) used in "The Real Breakout Indicator Hawk" is an enhanced version compared to the traditional CCI, offering several advantages:
1. Weighting and Smoothing Mechanism
In this version, the CCI values are weighted and smoothed using custom parameters (c1, c2, c3), which allows for greater flexibility in adjusting the sensitivity of the CCI to market conditions. This smoothing reduces noise and provides clearer signals compared to the standard CCI, which can be prone to whipsaws in volatile markets.
2. Multi-level Calculation
The indicator uses an array-based approach to calculate multiple variations of CCI values (with p as the parameter for different levels of calculation), which is then combined to create a more robust signal. This multi-level approach allows for capturing different market cycles, unlike the traditional CCI that only uses a single period for calculation.
3. Integration with Moving Averages and Trend Detection
Unlike the original CCI, which is often used in isolation, this version integrates with the trend detection logic by combining it with moving averages and money flow. The enhanced CCI contributes to the broader trend analysis, ensuring that buy/sell signals are not just based on CCI overbought/oversold levels but also validated by moving averages and slope calculations.
4. Trend-Weighted CCI
This version adds weight to recent price action trends, making it more adaptive to current market momentum. The CCI values are influenced by recent high and low prices, adding a trend-following aspect that is missing from the original CCI, which treats all price deviations equally.
This image of EURAD shows for example that when CCI component is green a strong trend is detected which can hold for up to 10 days in this example, ideal for swing trades;
EURAUD 2H
5. Improved Overbought/Oversold Detection
The script incorporates a dynamic overbought/oversold detection zone based on the enhanced CCI. It accounts for market volatility, allowing it to adjust its thresholds (such as the 200 level) more effectively in different market environments. This makes the enhanced CCI better suited for varying market conditions compared to the fixed thresholds of the original CCI.
You can see that the red diamond signal is generated at the absolute top of the price range after which price started to reverse, the detection is based on a cross over value together with Money Flow strength
BTCUSDT 2H
6. Strong Buy/Sell Confirmation
The enhanced CCI works in tandem with other components like Money Flow and Moving Averages to confirm buy or sell signals. This cross-validation makes the indicator less reliant on CCI alone and ensures that the signals generated are stronger and less prone to false positives, which is a common issue with the standalone CCI.
The green diamond buy signal in a strong downtrend is mostly a short retrace of price before continuing down further, yo can use this as an entry signal after the bounce up into an FVG for example. However when price is at a support, meaning price is not moving down further and this occurs this could be a potential reversal signal as shown on the right side on the chart below. FVG is not respected, retested and price continues up.
BTCUSDT 2H
Summary:
In summary, the enhanced CCI in this indicator improves over the original CCI by providing better noise reduction, multi-level analysis, trend integration, and adaptability to different market conditions. These improvements lead to more reliable and actionable trading signals.
2. Money Flow (MF) www.tradingview.com
The Money Flow component tracks the flow of capital in and out of an asset. Positive values indicate strong buying pressure, while negative values show selling pressure. This is smoothed to avoid noise and is used to confirm strong buy or sell conditions.
The Money Flow (MF) in "The Real Breakout Indicator Hawk" measures the flow of capital into or out of an asset, helping to assess the underlying buying or selling pressure in the market.
1. Positive Money Flow (Buying Pressure)
When the MF is positive, it indicates that more money is flowing into the asset, which suggests strong buying interest. This helps confirm that a price increase or breakout to the upside is supported by demand.
2. Negative Money Flow (Selling Pressure)
A negative MF indicates that capital is leaving the asset, reflecting selling pressure. This is a sign that the market is under bearish conditions, and prices are likely to decline or break down.
3. Confirmation of Buy and Sell Signals
The MF is used to confirm buy and sell signals generated by other components of the indicator. When the MF aligns with other bullish signals, it strengthens the buy condition, and similarly, when the MF shows strong selling pressure, it reinforces a sell signal.
4. Filtering Noise
The MF is smoothed to filter out noise, ensuring that only significant movements in buying or selling pressure are considered. This helps avoid false signals and makes the MF a reliable tool for detecting true market strength.
5. Range Sensitivity
The MF operates within defined ranges, ensuring that buy or sell signals are only triggered when the flow of money is strong enough, adding precision to signal generation.
In summary, the Money Flow component is crucial for validating market direction, enhancing signal reliability, and helping traders make more informed decisions based on the underlying capital movement in the market.
3. Moving Averages (MA)
Multiple types of moving averages (SMA, EMA, HMA, etc.) are used to smooth price action and highlight the trend direction. The script supports different types of moving averages, and their slopes are calculated to assist in identifying changes in trend momentum.
The Moving Averages (MA) section of "The Real Breakout Indicator Hawk" plays a critical role in smoothing price data, identifying trends, and generating buy/sell signals. Here’s a breakdown of what it does and how you can use it effectively without diving into the script:
1. Moving Average Types
This section allows the user to choose from different types of moving averages, each with unique characteristics:
SMA (Simple Moving Average): Takes the average of closing prices over a specific period. It’s slower and better suited for detecting long-term trends.
EMA (Exponential Moving Average): Gives more weight to recent prices, making it more responsive to new price action and suitable for short-term trading.
HMA (Hull Moving Average): A smoother and faster moving average, useful for reducing lag in fast-moving markets.
LVMA (Linear Weighted Moving Average): Places the most weight on recent prices, making it even more responsive than EMA.
Alma (Arnaud Legoux Moving Average): A smoother version that reduces noise while maintaining responsiveness to recent price action.
2. Smoothing and Trend Detection
The moving average smooths out price data to remove small fluctuations and focuses on the overall trend. When prices are trading above the moving average, it suggests that the market is in an uptrend. When prices are below the moving average, it indicates a downtrend.
3. Trend Confirmation
The moving average serves as a confirmation tool. When the price crosses above the moving average, it could signal the start of a bullish trend, and when the price crosses below, it may indicate the beginning of a bearish trend.
4. Buy and Sell Signals
Buy Signal: The system detects a buy signal when:
The moving average crosses above 0, indicating a potential upward momentum.
Other indicators like Money Flow and CCI align to confirm the trend.
Sell Signal: A sell signal is triggered when:
The moving average crosses below 0, signaling a potential downtrend.
This signal is further validated by other components such as Money Flow and CCI to reduce false signals.
5. Using Moving Averages in Trading
Crossover Strategy: One of the simplest ways to use moving averages is by employing a crossover strategy. For instance:
When the shorter-term moving average (e.g., 20-period) crosses above a longer-term moving average (e.g., 50-period), this is a bullish crossover, indicating a buy signal.
Conversely, when the shorter-term moving average crosses below the longer-term moving average, this is a bearish crossover, indicating a sell signal.
Trend Following: If you’re trading with the trend, you can use a moving average to stay in the trade as long as the price remains above (for long positions) or below (for short positions) the moving average.
Support and Resistance: Moving averages can also act as dynamic support or resistance levels. For example, in an uptrend, the CCI might bounce off the moving average, offering a good entry point for a long position. In a downtrend, the moving average could act as resistance where prices may reverse, offering a shorting opportunity.
To use the MA section effectively:
Choose the right type of moving average based on your trading style (e.g., use EMA for faster response or SMA for long-term trends).
Watch for crossovers as buy/sell signals, especially in combination with other indicators.
Follow the trend by observing whether the price is above or below the moving average.
Use the moving average as a dynamic support/resistance level to find optimal entry/exit points.
This approach makes the moving average a versatile tool for identifying trends, refining entry and exit points, and confirming overall market direction.
an example when MA crosses below 0, keep in mind that when it it starts curving up and turning green there is a reversal brewing, this could take time...
BTCUSDT 2H
4. Buy Signals
Buy signals are generated when the moving average crosses up, and the Money Flow and other trend-based conditions are met, including CCI levels confirming the strength of the breakout. Additionally, slope calculations and other momentum indicators provide extra confirmation for entries.
5. Sell Signals
Sell signals occur when the moving average crosses down, combined with negative Money Flow, confirming downward pressure. Other trend-based conditions, including the CCI, must also align to validate the signal, and slope calculations ensure that momentum is on the sell side.
6. Slope and Trend Detection
The script includes calculations for the slope of price action over a lookback period to measure trend strength and direction. The slope is normalized to help identify when the market is gaining or losing momentum. This slope is used in conjunction with the moving averages and Money Flow to give more accurate trend signals.
The Slope and Trend Detection component in "The Real Breakout Indicator Hawk" is designed to measure the direction and strength of the market’s trend by calculating the slope of the price action over a specific period. This helps to identify whether the market is gaining or losing momentum, and it is a key element in refining buy/sell signals.
Here’s how the Slope and Trend Detection works and how you can use it effectively without diving into the script:
1. Slope Calculation
Slope is essentially the rate of change of the moving average (or price) over a given number of bars. It measures how steeply the price is moving up or down.
The script calculates the slope by measuring the difference between the moving average over a defined number of bars (e.g., 12 bars in this case). A larger slope indicates a stronger trend, while a smaller slope suggests a weaker or consolidating trend.
2. Normalized Slope
The slope is normalized, meaning it is adjusted to fall within a range that makes it easier to compare across different time frames and markets. This normalization helps to gauge whether the slope is strong or weak relative to historical data.
Positive slopes (above 0) indicate an uptrend or rising price momentum, while negative slopes (below 0) indicate a downtrend or falling price momentum.
3. Trend Detection
The slope of the moving average is used to detect the current trend:
If the slope is positive, the market is in an uptrend.
If the slope is negative, the market is in a downtrend.
The stronger the slope (the steeper it is), the stronger the trend. A small slope indicates a weak trend or consolidation.
4. Slope Thresholds
The system uses thresholds to determine the significance of the slope. These thresholds are set as upper and lower bounds:
Upper Threshold: If the slope exceeds this threshold, the trend is considered strong, and it could trigger a buy signal.
Lower Threshold: If the slope falls below this threshold (into the negative range), it indicates a strong downtrend, and it could trigger a sell signal.
These thresholds help filter out weak or false signals that occur in sideways or low-momentum markets.
5. Positive and Negative Slope Arrays
The system keeps track of both positive and negative slopes over a defined lookback period (e.g., 500 bars). By storing these values, it creates a historical context that helps to assess the current slope in relation to past price movements.
It calculates the standard deviation and the average of these slopes to dynamically adjust the thresholds for each market condition, making the trend detection more adaptive to different types of assets or market phases.
6. Using Slope and Trend Detection in Trading
Buy Signal with Positive Slope: When the slope is positive and exceeds a certain threshold, it confirms that the market is in a strong uptrend. This can be used as a signal to enter a long position or add to existing long trades.
Sell Signal with Negative Slope: When the slope turns negative and falls below the lower threshold, it signals a strong downtrend, indicating a potential short-selling opportunity or the time to exit long positions.
Avoiding Flat Markets: If the slope remains close to zero (neither strongly positive nor negative), it suggests a lack of clear trend or a consolidating market. In these conditions, it might be better to avoid taking new trades or use additional filters to confirm signals.
7. Slope-Based Trend Strength Indicator
You can also use the slope as a measure of trend strength:
Strong Trend: When the slope is steep (either positive or negative), it indicates strong momentum, and you can be more confident in holding a trade in that direction.
Weak Trend or Consolidation: When the slope is flat, it indicates weak price momentum, which may signal a period of consolidation or indecision in the market.
8. Visual Representation
The slope is often visually represented as a gradient or line that fluctuates around a central point (usually zero). Positive values are shown in one color (e.g., green for an uptrend), while negative values are shown in another color (e.g., red for a downtrend). This allows traders to quickly identify the current trend direction and its strength.
Summary:
To use Slope and Trend Detection effectively:
Monitor the slope to determine the trend direction (positive = uptrend, negative = downtrend).
Look for thresholds to identify strong trends. For instance, a steep positive slope signals a strong uptrend, while a steep negative slope signals a strong downtrend.
Use slope changes to confirm buy/sell signals. For example, if you receive a buy signal and the slope is positive and increasing, it confirms that momentum is behind the trade.
Avoid low-slope periods when the slope is close to zero, indicating a lack of trend or sideways market conditions.
This approach helps traders stay on the right side of the trend while avoiding periods of low momentum, enhancing the accuracy of trade signals.
7. Banker Fund Flow Trend
This component identifies potential large institutional moves by tracking specific patterns in price and volume data. When the institutional or "banker" entry or exit conditions are met, it highlights these moments with candles and generates alerts.
The Banker Fund Flow Trend in "The Real Breakout Indicator Hawk" helps detect the flow of institutional (or "smart money") into and out of the market by tracking price trends and large player activity. It uses red and yellow candles to signal when institutional money is influencing the market.
Key Points:
Yellow Candles (Banker Entry):
A yellow candle is plotted when institutional money starts flowing into the market.
This signals a potential buy opportunity, as large market players are likely pushing prices upward.
Red Candles (Banker Exit):
A red candle appears when institutional money starts exiting the market.
This is a signal to consider selling or exiting long positions, as institutional selling could drive prices lower.
Usage:
Yellow candles: Use these as signals to enter long trades or add to existing positions, confirming upward momentum driven by institutional buyers.
Red candles: Treat these as signals to exit long trades or consider short positions, as institutional selling may lead to further downside.
BTCUSDT 2H
The yellow and red candles provide clear, actionable signals for aligning trades with institutional flows, ensuring you’re following the "smart money."
8. Dynamic Buy/Sell Calculations
A dynamic component is designed to refine the buy and sell signals further based on additional conditions like price patterns, volatility, and Money Flow. This ensures that signals are more responsive to changing market conditions.
The Dynamic Buy/Sell Calculations in "The Real Breakout Indicator Hawk" are designed to refine entry and exit points for trades by using additional conditions beyond simple crossovers. These calculations adapt to the current market conditions, making them more responsive to changes in volatility, trend strength, and momentum.
Key Features:
Dynamic Buy Calculation:
The indicator generates a buy signal when multiple conditions align. These conditions include the money flow (MF) being within a favorable range, the moving average (MA) confirming upward momentum, and the CCI and other trend components indicating strength.
This makes the buy signal more reliable, as it considers multiple aspects of market behavior (price, momentum, and money flow) to avoid false entries.
Dynamic Sell Calculation:
Similarly, the sell signal is triggered when the dynamic conditions indicate downward momentum.
This includes:
The moving average crossing down.
Negative money flow, suggesting selling pressure.
Other trend signals confirming a bearish move.
The dynamic nature of these conditions ensures that sell signals are only generated when there’s a high probability of continued downside movement.
Adaptive to Market Conditions:
The dynamic nature of these calculations means that the buy/sell signals adapt to market changes, like volatility spikes or sudden trend reversals. Instead of relying on static conditions, the system adjusts to current price movements and volatility.
Avoiding Noise:
By adding multiple filters like MF thresholds, slope, and moving averages, the dynamic calculations help reduce false signals that occur in noisy, sideways markets. This helps traders avoid entering trades during periods of low momentum or unclear trends.
How to Use:
Buy Signals: Use these signals to enter long trades when the dynamic conditions align, confirming that upward momentum is strong and backed by institutional flows.

Sell Signals: Use the sell signals to exit long positions or enter short trades when the market shows signs of bearish momentum, confirmed by multiple conditions like MA crossovers and negative money flow.
BTCUSDT 2H
In summary, the Dynamic Buy/Sell Calculations provide a more sophisticated approach to generating trade signals by combining various trend and momentum indicators, helping traders make more informed decisions in different market conditions.
This part of the code is identifying two key trading signals: moments to buy and moments to sell based on the behavior of a calculated trend line.
Buy Condition:
The system looks for a situation where the trend has been moving downward but has started to reverse upward. Specifically, it checks if the trend was declining a little while ago, then stopped falling, and is now starting to rise. If these conditions are met and the trend is still below a certain level, the system considers this a possible time to buy.
Sell Condition:
The opposite happens for selling. The system monitors for a situation where the trend has been moving upward but starts to turn downward. It checks if the trend was rising, leveled off, and now seems to be starting to fall. If these conditions are met and the trend is above a certain level, this could indicate a good time to sell.
Visual Markers:
To help the user easily see these signals on a chart, the system places symbols at specific points. A marker appears on the chart where the conditions for buying or selling are met, allowing the trader to quickly spot potential entry or exit points in the market.
In summary, this logic is designed to detect possible changes in trend direction and signal appropriate times to consider buying or selling, with clear visual markers on the chart for quick identification.
9. Alerts for Buy and Sell
The indicator provides built-in alert conditions for both buy and sell signals. When these conditions are met, the system generates alerts, making it suitable for automated monitoring.
Each of these components works together to detect potential breakout opportunities, trend continuations, and reversals, making the indicator suitable for both short-term and long-term trading strategies.
AndyB Buy and Sell Signals TTomIndicator: AndyB Buy and Sell Signals TTom
Originality:
The AndyB Buy and Sell Signals TTom is a straightforward, yet effective tool designed to generate clear buy and sell signals based on price action, specifically focusing on short-term breakout conditions. This indicator helps traders identify breakout opportunities by assessing whether the current price has exceeded recent highs or lows, thereby providing actionable signals for potential entries or exits. What distinguishes this script is its simplicity and focus on immediate market action, making it a useful addition for traders who prefer clear, rule-based decision-making.
Purpose:
This indicator is best used as part of a broader trading strategy, including moving averages or price action analysis that uses higher highs for long positions and lower lows for short positions. The AndyB Buy and Sell Signals TTom gives traders quick visual cues on possible breakout conditions, helping them catch shifts in price momentum. It is particularly well-suited for day traders or swing traders looking to capture shorter-term price movements.
How It Works:
Buy Signal Conditions:
The script generates a buy signal when the current close price exceeds both the high of the previous candle and the high of three candles ago. This setup identifies breakout conditions where the price is moving above recent resistance.
The buy signal is visually represented with a green arrow and is plotted below the price bar when the conditions are met.
Sell Signal Conditions:
A sell signal is triggered when the current close price drops below both the low of the previous candle and the low of three candles ago. This highlights a potential downward breakout, signaling a shift in momentum.
The sell signal is represented with a red arrow and plotted above the price bar.
Signal State Tracking:
The indicator keeps track of the most recent signal, ensuring that buy and sell signals are not repeated consecutively without a change in market conditions.
This feature helps prevent signal noise by waiting for a fresh condition to occur before generating the next signal.
Alerts:
Alerts are built into the indicator for both buy and sell signals, allowing traders to receive notifications when new breakout opportunities arise.
How to Use:
Buy Strategy: Use the buy signals as potential long entry points. These should ideally align with confirmation from other trend indicators like moving averages (e.g., price above the 200-period MA) or price action setups showing higher highs.
Sell Strategy: The sell signals are potential short entry points, best confirmed by moving averages (e.g., price below the 200-period MA) or price action indicating lower lows.
Combining Signals: While the indicator is powerful on its own for detecting breakouts, its effectiveness is enhanced when combined with moving averages to confirm the direction of the broader trend. For instance, a buy signal is stronger if the price is already trending upwards based on longer-term MAs.
Usefulness:
The simplicity of this indicator makes it ideal for traders looking for straightforward breakout signals without the complexity of oscillators or volume analysis. By focusing on price action and breakout conditions, it helps identify shifts in momentum quickly. Combining these signals with other trend-following tools, such as moving averages or support/resistance analysis, provides traders with a robust framework for timing their entries and exits.
Uptrick: TimeFrame Trends: Performance & Sentiment Indicator### **Uptrick: TimeFrame Trends: Performance & Sentiment Indicator (TFT) - In-Depth Explanation**
#### **Overview**
The **Uptrick: TimeFrame Trends: Performance & Sentiment Indicator (TFT)** is a sophisticated trading tool designed to provide traders with a comprehensive view of market trends across multiple timeframes, combined with a sentiment gauge through the Relative Strength Index (RSI). This indicator offers a unique blend of performance analysis, sentiment evaluation, and visual signal generation, making it an invaluable resource for traders who seek to understand both the macro and micro trends within a financial instrument.
#### **Purpose**
The primary purpose of the TFT indicator is to empower traders with the ability to assess the performance of an asset over various timeframes while simultaneously gauging market sentiment through the RSI. By analyzing price changes over periods ranging from one week to one year, and complementing this with sentiment signals, TFT enables traders to make informed decisions based on a well-rounded analysis of historical price performance and current market conditions.
#### **Key Components and Features**
1. **Multi-Timeframe Performance Analysis:**
- **Performance Lookback Periods:**
- The TFT indicator calculates the percentage price change over several predefined timeframes: 7 days (1 week), 14 days (2 weeks), 30 days (1 month), 180 days (6 months), and 365 days (1 year). These timeframes provide a layered view of how an asset has performed over short, medium, and long-term periods.
- **Percentage Change Calculation:**
- The indicator computes the percentage change for each timeframe by comparing the current closing price to the closing price at the start of each period. This gives traders insight into the strength and direction of the trend over different periods, helping them identify consistent trends or potential reversals.
2. **Sentiment Analysis Using RSI:**
- **Relative Strength Index (RSI):**
- RSI is a widely-used momentum oscillator that measures the speed and change of price movements. It oscillates between 0 and 100 and is typically used to identify overbought or oversold conditions. In TFT, the RSI is calculated using a 14-period lookback, which is standard for most RSI implementations.
- **RSI Smoothing with EMA:**
- To refine the RSI signal and reduce noise, TFT applies a 10-period Exponential Moving Average (EMA) to the RSI values. This smoothed RSI is then used to generate buy, sell, and neutral signals based on its position relative to the 50 level:
- **Buy Signal:** Triggered when the smoothed RSI crosses above 50, indicating bullish sentiment.
- **Sell Signal:** Triggered when the smoothed RSI crosses below 50, indicating bearish sentiment.
- **Neutral Signal:** Triggered when the smoothed RSI equals 50, suggesting indecision or a balanced market.
3. **Visual Signal Generation:**
- **Signal Plots:**
- TFT provides clear visual cues directly on the price chart by plotting shapes at the points where buy, sell, or neutral signals are generated. These shapes are color-coded (green for buy, red for sell, yellow for neutral) and are positioned below or above the price bars for easy identification.
- **First Occurrence Trigger:**
- To avoid clutter and focus on significant market shifts, TFT only triggers the first occurrence of each signal type. This feature helps traders concentrate on the most relevant signals without being overwhelmed by repeated alerts.
4. **Customizable Performance & Sentiment Table:**
- **Table Display:**
- The TFT indicator includes a customizable table that displays the calculated percentage changes for each timeframe. This table is positioned on the chart according to user preference (top-left, top-right, bottom-left, bottom-right) and provides a quick reference to the asset’s performance across multiple periods.
- **Dynamic Text Color:**
- To enhance readability and provide immediate visual feedback, the text color in the table changes based on the direction of the percentage change: green for positive (upward movement) and red for negative (downward movement). This color-coding helps traders quickly assess whether the asset is in an uptrend or downtrend for each period.
- **Customizable Font Size:**
- Traders can adjust the font size of the table to fit their chart layout and personal preferences, ensuring that the information is accessible without being intrusive.
5. **Flexibility and Customization:**
- **Lookback Period Customization:**
- While the default lookback periods are set for common trading intervals (7 days, 14 days, etc.), these can be adjusted to match different trading strategies or market conditions. This flexibility allows traders to tailor the indicator to focus on the timeframes most relevant to their analysis.
- **RSI and EMA Settings:**
- The length of the RSI calculation and the smoothing EMA can also be customized. This is particularly useful for traders who prefer shorter or longer periods for their momentum analysis, allowing them to fine-tune the sensitivity of the indicator.
- **Table Position and Appearance:**
- The table’s position on the chart, along with its font size and colors, is fully customizable. This ensures that the indicator can be integrated seamlessly into any chart setup without obstructing key price data.
#### **Use Cases and Applications**
1. **Trend Identification and Confirmation:**
- **Short-Term Traders:**
- Traders focused on short-term movements can use the 7-day and 14-day performance metrics to identify recent trends and momentum shifts. The RSI signals provide additional confirmation, helping traders enter or exit positions based on the latest market sentiment.
- **Swing Traders:**
- For those holding positions over days to weeks, the 30-day and 180-day performance data are particularly useful. These metrics highlight medium-term trends, and when combined with RSI signals, they provide a robust framework for swing trading strategies.
- **Long-Term Investors:**
- Long-term investors can benefit from the 1-year performance data to gauge the overall health and direction of an asset. The indicator’s ability to track performance across different periods helps in identifying long-term trends and potential reversal points.
2. **Sentiment Analysis and Market Timing:**
- **Market Sentiment Tracking:**
- By using RSI in conjunction with performance metrics, TFT provides a clear picture of market sentiment. Traders can use this information to time their entries and exits more effectively, aligning their trades with periods of strong bullish or bearish sentiment.
- **Avoiding False Signals:**
- The smoothing of RSI helps reduce noise and avoid false signals that are common in volatile markets. This makes the TFT indicator a reliable tool for identifying true market trends and avoiding whipsaws that can lead to losses.
3. **Comprehensive Market Analysis:**
- **Multi-Timeframe Analysis:**
- TFT’s ability to analyze multiple timeframes simultaneously makes it an excellent tool for comprehensive market analysis. Traders can compare short-term and long-term performance to understand the broader market context, making it easier to align their trading strategies with the overall trend.
- **Performance Benchmarking:**
- The percentage change metrics provide a clear benchmark for an asset’s performance over time. This information can be used to compare the asset against broader market indices or other assets, helping traders make more informed decisions about where to allocate their capital.
4. **Custom Strategy Development:**
- **Tailoring to Specific Markets:**
- TFT can be customized to suit different markets, whether it’s stocks, forex, commodities, or cryptocurrencies. For instance, traders in volatile markets may opt for shorter lookback periods and more sensitive RSI settings, while those in stable markets may prefer longer periods for a smoother analysis.
- **Integrating with Other Indicators:**
- TFT can be used alongside other technical indicators to create a more comprehensive trading strategy. For example, combining TFT with moving averages, Bollinger Bands, or MACD can provide additional layers of confirmation and reduce the likelihood of false signals.
#### **Best Practices for Using TFT**
- **Regularly Adjust Lookback Periods:**
- Depending on the market conditions and the asset being traded, it’s important to regularly review and adjust the lookback periods for the performance metrics. This ensures that the indicator remains relevant and responsive to current market trends.
- **Combine with Volume Analysis:**
- While TFT provides a solid foundation for trend and sentiment analysis, combining it with volume indicators can further enhance its effectiveness. Volume can confirm the strength of a trend or signal potential reversals when divergences occur.
- **Use RSI with Other Momentum Indicators:**
- Although RSI is a powerful tool on its own, using it alongside other momentum indicators like Stochastic Oscillator or MACD can provide additional confirmation and help refine entry and exit points.
- **Customize Table Settings for Clarity:**
- Ensure that the performance table is positioned and sized appropriately on the chart. It should be easily readable without obstructing important price data. Adjust the text size and colors as needed to maintain clarity.
- **Monitor Multiple Timeframes:**
- Utilize the multi-timeframe analysis feature of TFT to monitor trends across different periods. This helps in identifying the dominant trend and avoiding trades that go against the broader market direction.

EMA Levels, Multi-TimeframeThe exponential moving average (EMA) tracks price over time, giving more importance to recent price data than simple moving average (SMA). EMAs for larger timeframes are generally considered to be stronger supports/resistances for price to move through than smaller timeframes. This indicator allows you to specify two different EMA lengths that you want to track. Additionally, this indicator allows you to display not just the EMA levels of your currently viewed timeframe on the chart, but also shows the EMA levels of up to 4 different timeframes on the same chart. This allows you to quickly see if multiple EMA levels are aligning across different timeframes, which is an even stronger indication that price is going to meet support or resistance when it meets those levels on the chart. There are a lot of nice configuration options, like:
Ability to customize the EMA lengths you want to track
Style customization (color, thickness, size)
Hide any timeframes/levels you aren't interested in
Labels on the chart so you can tell which plots are the EMA levels
Optionally display the plot as a horizontal line if all you care about is the EMA level right now

Summary
This strategy will attempt to take a short position within a time window only after X consecutive up days. Once X consecutive up days have been detected, two windows will open up. The first window tracks the high of the day. The second window will attempt to short the high of the day if price retests it.
Features
Tracking of consecutive up days using intra-day data
Opening a trade window when consecutive up days are detected
Tracking the high of a sub-session (user definable)
Shorting the high during a second sub-session (user definable)
Stop losses and take profits
End of sub-session close out option.
Buffer range from high of the day. So price does not need to retouch the high but can come with x rupees.

Premium/Discount with Candle Open stats [Herman]Premium/Discount with Stats
This indicator is designed to help traders identify and analyze premium/discount zones on any timeframe while automatically tracking statistics on price behavior relative to these zones. It is especially valuable for traders looking to structure entries, manage targets, and quantify market reactions to prior session ranges.
What it draws on the chart
✅ Range High and Low Lines
For each selected timeframe period (15min, 30min 1H, 4H, Daily), the indicator plots the high and low of the completed previous period.
These lines are color-coded dynamically based on sweep detection:
If the high was swept (price broke the previous high), the high line is marked as Premium.
If the low was swept, the low line is marked as Discount.
If both were swept or neither, it uses the default color settings.
✅ Midline
An optional midline at the 50% level of the previous period’s high-low range.
Helpful for mean-reversion traders or anyone watching for retests of equilibrium.
✅ Quartile Lines (25%–75%)
Optional additional lines at 25% and 75% of the previous range, helping traders visualize inner range subdivisions.
✅ Open Price Line
Marks the open price of the previous period as a horizontal reference.
✅ Background Fills
The region between low and midline is shaded with the Discount color.
The region between high and midline is shaded with the Premium color.
These optional fills help highlight the premium and discount zones visually.
✅ Current Incomplete Period Lines (optional)
You can choose to display provisional high, low, midline, quartiles, and open for the current forming period.
These update in real-time until the period closes.
Sweep Detection Logic
The indicator automatically tracks if the current period price sweeps above the previous period’s high or below the low.
A "sweep" is simply defined as price exceeding the previous high/low while tracking is active.
The sweep status affects the colors of the premium/discount lines, helping traders see potential liquidity grabs or stop hunts.
What it counts and tracks (Statistics)
The script automatically compiles statistics over time:
✅ Total Touches
Counts how many times the price in a new period touches either the previous period’s high or low.
A “touch” is registered once per side per period.
✅ Midline Returns
Counts how often, after touching the previous high/low, price returns to the previous period’s midline.
Gives you a measure of mean-reversion success.
✅ Open Returns
Similarly, tracks how often price returns to the previous period’s open after touching the previous high/low.
✅ Return Percentages
Displays the percentage of touches that result in a return to midline or open.
These percentages are calculated live on your chart and updated after each period closes.
✅ Stats Table
A customizable on-chart table summarizing all of these stats in real-time.
Helps traders evaluate the effectiveness of range-based trading setups over time.
How it Works (Technical details)
On each new bar, the script checks if a new period (as defined by your timeframe selection) has begun.
When a new period starts, the previous period’s high, low, open, midline, quartiles are recorded and drawn on the chart.
The script then “watches” the current period:
Updates provisional high and low.
Detects sweeps of previous highs/lows.
Tracks if price returns to the previous period’s midline or open after those sweeps.
Increments statistical counters if conditions are met.
Background fills and lines update dynamically based on real-time data.
Intended Use Cases
This indicator is ideal for:
✅ Identifying premium/discount zones for swing or intraday trades.

🎯 Advanced Technical Analysis Tool Combining ALMA with Dynamic Oscillator Technology
The ALMA Shifting Band Oscillator represents a sophisticated fusion of the Arnaud Legoux Moving Average (ALMA) with an innovative oscillator-based signaling system. This indicator transforms traditional moving average analysis into a comprehensive trading solution with dynamic band visualization and precise entry/exit signals.
Core Technology 🔧
Arnaud Legoux Moving Average Foundation
Built upon the mathematically superior ALMA calculation, this indicator leverages the unique properties of ALMA's phase shift and noise reduction capabilities. The ALMA component provides a responsive yet smooth baseline that adapts to market conditions with minimal lag.
Dynamic Band System
The indicator generates adaptive upper and lower bands around the ALMA centerline using statistical deviation analysis. These bands automatically adjust to market volatility, creating a dynamic envelope that captures price extremes and potential reversal zones.
Normalized Oscillator Engine
The heart of the system transforms price action relative to the dynamic bands into a normalized oscillator that oscillates around a zero line. This oscillator provides clear visual representation of momentum and position within the established bands.

Customization Options ⚙️
ALMA Parameter Control
ALMA Length (Default: 42) - Controls the lookback period for the moving average calculation. Lower values (20-30) create faster, more responsive signals but increase noise. Higher values (50-100) produce smoother signals with less false alerts but slower reaction to price changes.
ALMA Offset (Default: 0.68) - Determines the phase shift of the moving average. Values closer to 0 behave like a simple moving average. Values closer to 1 act more like an exponential moving average. 0.68 provides optimal balance between responsiveness and smoothness.
ALMA Sigma (Default: 1.8) - Controls the smoothness factor of the ALMA calculation. Lower values (1.0-2.0) create sharper, more reactive averages. Higher values (4.0-8.0) produce extremely smooth but slower-responding averages. Affects how quickly the ALMA adapts to price changes.
Source Selection - Choose between Close, Open, High, Low, or custom price combinations. Close price is standard for most analysis. HL2 or HLC3 can provide different market perspectives and reduce single-price volatility.
Oscillator Fine-tuning
Standard Deviation Length (Default: 27) - Determines the lookback period for volatility calculation. Shorter periods (10-20) make bands more reactive to recent volatility changes. Longer periods (40-60) create more stable bands that filter out short-term volatility spikes.
SD Multiplier (Default: 2.8) - Controls the width of the dynamic bands. Lower values (1.5-2.0) create tighter bands with more frequent signals but higher false signal rate. Higher values (3.0-4.0) produce wider bands with fewer but potentially more reliable signals.
Oscillator Multiplier (Default: 100) - Scales the oscillator for visual clarity. This is purely cosmetic and doesn't affect signal generation. Adjust based on your preferred oscillator range visualization.
Long Threshold (Default: 82) - Sets the level where bullish signals trigger. Lower values (70-80) generate more frequent long signals but may include weaker setups. Higher values (85-95) create fewer but potentially stronger bullish signals.
Short Threshold (Default: 50) - Determines where bearish signals activate. Higher values (55-65) produce more short signals. Lower values (35-45) wait for stronger bearish conditions before signaling.
Trading Mode Configuration
Long/Short Mode - Full bidirectional trading that takes both long and short positions. Suitable for trending markets and experienced traders comfortable with short selling.
Long/Cash Mode - Conservative approach that only takes long positions or moves to cash during bearish signals. Ideal for bull market conditions or traders who prefer not to short.
Display Customization
Color Schemes (9 Options) - Choose from Classic to Classic9 palettes. Each offers different visual contrast for various chart backgrounds and personal preferences.
Metrics Table Position - Place performance metrics in any of 6 chart locations: Top Left/Right, Middle Left/Right, Bottom Left/Right.
Show/Hide Metrics Table - Toggle the comprehensive performance analytics display on or off based on your analysis needs.
Date Range Limiter - Set specific start dates for backtesting and signal generation. Useful for testing strategies on specific market periods or excluding unusual market events.
Parameter Optimization Tips
Volatile Markets - Use shorter ALMA Length (25-35), lower SD Multiplier (2.0-2.5), and moderate thresholds
Trending Markets - Employ longer ALMA Length (45-60), higher SD Multiplier (3.0-4.0), and extreme thresholds
Sideways Markets - Try medium ALMA Length (35-45), standard SD Multiplier (2.5-3.0), and closer thresholds (75/55)
Higher Timeframes - Generally use longer periods and higher multipliers for smoother signals
Lower Timeframes - Opt for shorter periods and lower multipliers for more responsive signals

⚠️ IMPORTANT DISCLAIMER
Past Performance Warning: 📉⚠️
PAST PERFORMANCE IS NOT INDICATIVE OF FUTURE RESULTS. Historical backtesting results, while useful for strategy development and parameter optimization, do not guarantee similar performance in live trading conditions. Market conditions change continuously, and what worked in the past may not work in the future.
Remember: Successful trading requires discipline, continuous learning, and adaptation to changing market conditions. No indicator or strategy guarantees profits, and all trading involves substantial risk of loss.
Kitty PMO [theUltimator5]Kitty PMO is a momentum analysis tool designed to visually track and interpret the Price Momentum Oscillator (PMO) — with stylistic influence inspired by the charting approach made popular by “theRoaringKitty.” It aims to offer clear, actionable momentum signals directly overlaid on the chart without clutter or ambiguity, making it ideal for traders who prioritize simplicity and signal clarity.
At its core, the indicator calculates the PMO by applying a custom recursive smoothing function to the rate of change (ROC) of price. This smoothed momentum measure is then:
Amplified by a scaling factor (×10),
Further smoothed using user-defined parameters,
Compared against a signal line (EMA of PMO),
And tracked with a secondary moving average (PMO MA) to capture medium-term trend inflections.
While the PMO and its associated signal lines can optionally be plotted, the indicator primarily emphasizes crossovers between the PMO MA and the other two components. When the PMO MA crosses above both the PMO and signal line, a green upward arrow (↑) is plotted below the price. When it crosses below both, a red downward arrow (↓) appears above the price — making it easy to spot potential turning points in momentum.
Additionally, a floating info table can be toggled on to display all current user-defined parameters in a clean, resizable format. This makes the script ideal not just for technical execution but also for real-time strategy tuning and tracking across multiple timeframes.
The script includes optional alerts so you can be notified the moment a key crossover signal is triggered, without needing to keep your eyes glued to the screen.
Rev & Line - CoffeeKillerRev & Line - CoffeeKiller Indicator Guide
🔔 Warning: This Indicator Repaints 🔔 This indicator uses real-time calculations that may change based on future price action. As a result, signals (such as arrows, lines, or color changes) **can and will repaint** — meaning they may appear, disappear, or shift after a candle closes.
**Do not rely on this tool alone for live trading decisions.** Use with caution and always confirm with non-repainting tools or additional analysis.(This indicator is designed to show me the full length of the trend and because of this there can be a smaller movement inside of the trend movement)
