Historical Returns [BigBeluga]🔵 OVERVIEW
The Historical Returns indicator visualizes daily and monthly return data to help traders assess seasonal performance and volatility behavior. It provides a clean and informative dashboard showing the current month’s daily return bubbles, monthly return curves, and a snapshot of the current month and year performance. This tool is ideal for spotting recurring return patterns and understanding the broader profitability context of a symbol.
🔵 CONCEPTS
Daily Return Bubbles: Each trading day is analyzed for its return percentage, and plotted as a bubble with size proportional to the return magnitude.
Monthly Performance Curves: Average or cumulative returns are calculated and plotted to show how the current month is performing relative to historical averages.
Current Year Return: Current year performance as a single return value, giving traders context on long-term profitability.
Current Month Average Return: Current month average performance as a single return value, giving traders context on short-term profitability.
Extreme Return Labels: Optionally highlights daily returns above +4% or below -4% with labeled percentages for spike recognition.
🔵 FEATURES
Shows daily return bubbles (1%–7%+), color-coded by direction.
Labels monthly returns with the month name and percentage value.
Displays a performance dashboard with:
Daily return heatmap for the current month.
Average return for the current month.
Year-to-date return.
Toggle between average and cumulative modes for monthly return curves.
Clearly marks days with abnormal return spikes using optional labels.
Clean fallback warning if not on a daily chart ("⚠️USE DAILY TIMEFRAME").
Custom color themes for bullish and bearish values.
🔵 HOW TO USE
Use the monthly return curve to compare how the current month is performing against historical averages.
Look for clusters of positive or negative bubbles as signals of strong directional weeks.
Watch extreme return labels for volatility spikes or catalyst days.
Use year-to-date return to assess how the asset is trending in the broader macro cycle.
Combine with other BigBeluga tools to align trades with historically favorable periods.
🔵 CONCLUSION
Historical Returns is your visual companion for return analytics — helping you identify profitable months, detect volatility surges, and understand historical seasonality at a glance. With a clean dashboard and insightful overlays, this tool supports better timing and improved statistical edge in both short- and long-term trades.
Analysis
Area per IntervalDescription
This indicator shades the area between 2 curves, an SMA and the nearest open/close to the SMA, and their intersections. The black labels with leader lines describe the calculated area of each shaded section, and the total area accumulated per total number of time intervals for that area. The additional value visible in the status line that is not displayed on the chart is, at any bar index (time interval), the current total area of the incomplete shaded area.
Usage
- The default color of the shaded areas denote the type of momentum being built before the cross. Green for bullish, red for bearish.
- The area value of the shaded areas can be used as a capacity indicator, denoting imbalances between the previous and next crosses.
- The area per interval value of the shaded areas can be used as a momentum indicator, denoting which area is carrying more price movement before the price crosses.
- Similar to indicators that use dynamic price differences between OHLC data, moving averages, etc, confluence with other momentum indicators that use different elements creates additional confirmation.
Conclusion
Simple momentum indicator. Comment for possible updates that can be made.
Quality-Controlled Trend Strategy v2 (Expectancy Focused)This script focuses on quality control rather than curve-fitting.
No repainting, no intrabar tricks, no fake equity curves.
It uses confirmed-bar entries, ATR-based risk, and clean trend logic so backtests reflect what could actually be traded live.
If you publish scripts, this is the minimum structure worth sharing.
Why this script exists
TradingView’s public scripts are flooded with:
repainting indicators
no stop-loss logic
curve-fit entries that collapse live
strategies that look good only in hindsight
This script is intentionally boring but honest.
No repainting.
No intrabar tricks.
No fake equity curves
The goal is quality control, not hype.
What this strategy enforces
✔ Confirmed bars only
✔ Single source of truth for indicators
✔ Fixed risk structure
✔ No signal repainting
✔ Clean exits with unique IDs
✔ Works on any liquid market
Trading Logic (simple & auditable)
Trend filter
EMA 50 vs EMA 200
Entry
Pullback to EMA 50
RSI confirms momentum (not oversold/overbought)
Risk
ATR-based stop
Fixed R:R
One position at a time
This is the minimum bar for a strategy to be considered publish-worthy.
Why this helps TradingView quality
Most low-value scripts fail because they:
hide repainting logic
skip exits entirely
use inconsistent calculations
rely on hindsight candles
This strategy forces discipline:
every signal is confirmed
every trade has defined risk
behavior is repeatable across symbols & timeframes
If more scripts followed this baseline, TradingView’s public library would be far more usable.
Opening Path Selector (EMA200 Context Tool)📝 Description
Opening Path Selector is a context-based indicator designed to help traders quickly identify which asset may offer the cleanest directional path at the market open.
This tool does not generate entry or exit signals.
Its purpose is to reduce decision fatigue during the first minutes of the session by ranking a small set of high-liquidity assets based on higher-timeframe EMA200 structure.
🔍 What this indicator evaluates
The dashboard compares a predefined group of major symbols and ranks them according to:
• Proximity to the nearest EMA200
• Relative position versus higher-timeframe EMA200 levels
• Directional context inferred from EMA structure
The result is a priority-based list that highlights which asset may present:
• Less immediate EMA resistance
• Clearer directional context
• Lower probability of early-session chop
📊 How to read the dashboard
• Priority – Ranking based on opening context
• Symbol – Evaluated instrument
• Nearest EMA200 – Distance and side relative to price
• Possible Path – Direction with less immediate EMA resistance
• Bias – Strength of the higher-timeframe context
Colored markers are used to provide fast visual identification of the highest-priority assets.
⚠️ Important notes
• This is a context and selection tool, NOT a trading system
• No buy/sell signals, alerts, TP, or SL logic are included
• Designed to be used alongside your own execution methodology
🔧 Compatibility
Due to Pine Script multi-symbol and multi-timeframe constraints, this public version is intentionally limited to a small set of symbols.
TradingView Pro / Premium or higher is recommended for consistent performance.
🔗 Complementary tools
This indicator can be complemented with Multi-Tool VWAP + EMAs (Multi-Timeframe) + Key Levels , which provides detailed visibility of multiple EMA levels, VWAP structure, and higher-timeframe reference zones directly on the chart.
While Opening Path Selector helps decide which asset to focus on at the open, the complementary tool can assist with in-chart context and confirmation once an asset has been selected.
Both tools are designed to serve different stages of the decision process and can be used independently.
Next Candle PredictorAdvanced TradingView Indicator for Precise Buy and Sell Signals
Overview:
The Predicta Futures - Next Candle Predictor is a cutting-edge TradingView indicator designed to forecast the next candle's direction in futures and cryptocurrency markets. Leveraging a multi-indicator confluence strategy, this tool provides traders with actionable long and short prediction percentages, enhanced by dynamic ADX-based thresholds and visual projection candles. Ideal for scalping, day trading, or swing trading on platforms like MEXC or Binance futures, it combines Supertrend, MACD, RSI, Stochastic, ADX, and volume analysis to deliver high-probability buy and sell signals while minimizing false positives.
Key Features:
• Multi-Indicator Confluence Scoring:
Integrates Supertrend for trend direction, EMAs (8, 21, 50) for alignment, MACD for momentum crossovers, RSI for overbought/oversold conditions, Stochastic for divergence detection, ADX for trend strength, and volume ratios for confirmation. A customizable confluence score (0-6) ensures signals meet user-defined criteria, reducing whipsaws in volatile markets.
• Dynamic Prediction Thresholds:
ADX-driven adjustments lower the required prediction percentage (e.g., 60% in strong trends) for "PERFECT TIME" entries, adapting to market conditions like ranging or trending phases.
• Visual Analysis Table:
A sleek, color-coded dashboard displays progress bars for each indicator, prediction percentages, and status (e.g., "PERFECT TIME" or "WAIT"). Supports long and short analyses with intuitive ASCII bars for quick scans.
• Projection Candles:
Simulates potential next-candle outcomes with volatility-scaled (via Bollinger Bands width) green long and red short candles, aiding in visualizing price targets.
• Buy/Sell Signals and Alerts:
Generates labeled "BUY" and "SELL" arrows on EMA crossovers within confirmed trends, with separate alerts for basic signals and high-confluence "PERFECT TIME" opportunities.
• Customizable Inputs:
Adjust ATR periods, Supertrend factors, minimum confluence scores, and volume ratios to tailor the indicator for stocks, forex, or crypto perpetual futures.
How It Works:
This TradingView script calculates long and short scores using weighted contributions from key indicators, normalizing them into prediction percentages. A confluence check—factoring trend, EMA alignment, MACD, Stochastic, volume, and ADX—triggers "PERFECT TIME" only when conditions align robustly. For example:
• In a downtrend (Supertrend red), with bearish MACD and Stochastic, and sufficient volume, the indicator highlights short opportunities.
• Dynamic thresholds ensure aggressive entries in strong trends (ADX >25) and conservative ones in weak trends.
• Backtested for reliability, it excels in identifying reversals and continuations, making it a must-have for traders seeking an edge in futures trading strategies.
Usage Instructions:
1. Add the indicator to your TradingView chart. (Search: Next Candle Predictor)
2. Customize settings via the inputs panel (e.g., set minConfluence to 5 for stricter signals).
3. Monitor the analysis table for predictions and confluence scores.
4. Act on "BUY/SELL" labels or "PERFECT TIME" alerts, combining with your risk management.
5. Enable projection candles for visual forecasting of the next bar.
Compatible with all timeframes, from 1-minute scalping to daily swings. Note: This is not financial advice; always verify signals with additional analysis.

Max Pain Options [QuantLabs] v5 (Balanced)Institutional Grade Options Analysis: Max Pain, Gamma & Pin Risk
For years, TradingView users have been flying blind without access to Options Chain data. QuantLabs: Max Pain & Gamma Exposure changes that. This is not just a support/resistance indicator—it is a sophisticated, algorithmic model that reverse-engineers the incentives of Market Makers using synthetic Black-Scholes logic.
This tool visualizes the "invisible hand" of the market: the hedging requirements of large dealers who are forced to buy or sell to keep their books neutral.
CORE FEATURES:
🔴 Max Pain Gravity Model The bright red line represents the "Max Pain" strike—the price level where the maximum amount of Options Open Interest (Calls + Puts) expires worthless.
Theory: As OpEx (Expiration) approaches, Market Makers maximize profits by pinning the price to this level.
Strategy: Use this as a mean-reversion target. If price is far away, look for a snap-back to the red line.
🟣 Gamma Exposure Profiles (The Purple Lines) These neon histograms show you the estimated "Gamma Walls."
Long Gamma: Dealers trade against the trend (stabilizing price).
Short Gamma: Dealers trade with the trend (accelerating volatility).
Visual: The larger the purple bar, the harder it will be for price to break through that level.
📦 Algorithmic "Pin Risk" Zones The dashed red box highlights the "Kill Zone." When price enters this area near expiration, volatility often dies as dealers pin the asset to kill retail premiums.
Warning: Do not expect breakouts while inside the Pin Zone.
📊 Institutional HUD A clean, non-intrusive dashboard provides real-time Greeks and risk analysis:
Pin Risk: High/Medium/Low probability of a pinned close.
Exp Mode: Detects if the market is in "Short Gamma" (Squeeze territory) or "Long Gamma" (Chop territory).
HOW IT WORKS (The Math): Since live options data is not available via Pine Script, this engine uses a proprietary Synthetic OI Distribution Model. It inputs Volume, Volatility (IV), and Time-to-Expiry into a modified Black-Scholes equation to probability-map where the heavy open interest likely sits.
SETTINGS & CUSTOMIZATION:
Responsiveness: Tuned for the "Goldilocks Zone" (Spread: 12, Decay: 22) to catch local liquidity walls without over-fitting.
Visuals: Designed for Dark Mode. High-contrast Neon aesthetics for maximum readability.
SMC Post-Analysis Lab [PhenLabs]📊 SMC Post-Analysis Lab
Version: PineScript™ v6
📌 Description
The SMC Post-Analysis Lab is a dedicated hindsight analysis tool built for traders who want to understand what really happened during any historical trading period.

Selected Days Indicator V3-TrDoes the stock drop every Wednesday? Do March months always move similarly? Does the 1st week of the month behave differently?
Do you ever say "it always makes this move in these months"? Don't you want to see more clearly whether it actually makes this move or not? Don't you want to see and test periodically repeating price patterns?
Hisse her Çarşamba düşüyor mu? Mart ayları hep benzer mi hareket ediyor? Ayın 1. haftası farklı mı davranıyor?
Bazen "bu aylarda hep bu hareketi yapıyor" dediğiniz oluyor mu? Gerçekten de bu hareketi yapıp yapmadığını daha net görmek istemez misiniz? Periyodik tekrarlayan fiyat kalıplarını görmek ve test etmek istemiyor musunuz?
1. Problem
Some stocks or crypto assets exhibit systematic behaviors on certain days, weeks, or months. But it's hard to see - everything is mixed together on the chart. This indicator isolates the days/weeks/months you want and shows only them. Hides everything else.
2. How It Works
Three-layer filter: Day (Monday, Tuesday...), Week (1st, 2nd, 3rd week of the month), Month (January, February...). Select what you want, let the rest disappear. Example: Show only Thursdays of March-June-September. Or compare every 1st week of the month. View as candlestick, line, or column chart.
3. What's It Good For?
Test "end-of-month effect". Find "day-of-the-week anomaly". Analyze crypto volatility by days. See seasonality in commodities. Discover patterns specific to your own strategy. Past data doesn't guarantee the future but provides statistical advantage.
CRUX-3 Macro Regime Index"CRUX-3 Macro Regime Index"
Description:
CRUX-3 Macro Regime Index is a higher-timeframe macro indicator designed to evaluate how crypto markets are performing relative to traditional equities. It compares Bitcoin, Ethereum, and the broader altcoin market (TOTAL3) against the S&P 500 using Z-score normalization to highlight periods of relative outperformance or underperformance.
The indicator incorporates liquidity-based regime detection using Bitcoin dominance and stablecoin dominance to classify market environments as Risk-On, BTC-Led, or Risk-Off. Background shading visually highlights these regimes, helping users identify broader macro conditions rather than short-term trade signals.
CRUX-3 is intended for macro context, regime awareness, and allocation bias decisions, not for precise trade entries or timing.
How to Use:
Weekly timeframe recommended for best results
Rising Z-scores indicate crypto outperforming equities
ETH/SPX typically acts as an early rotation signal
TOTAL3/SPX confirms broader altcoin participation
Regime shading reflects liquidity conditions, not price forecasts
Regime Definitions:
Risk-On: BTC dominance and stablecoin dominance declining
BTC-Led: BTC dominance strong while stablecoin dominance eases
Risk-Off: BTC dominance and stablecoin dominance rising
Notes:
Forward regime bands are statistical reference guides based on historical behavior
This indicator does not predict future prices or market direction
Best used alongside price charts and other macro tools
Disclaimer:
This indicator is for educational and informational purposes only. It does not constitute financial advice, investment advice, or trading recommendations.
Recommended Settings:
Timeframe: Weekly (1W)
Z-Score Lookback: 52
Forward Regime Bands: Enabled
Open Interest RSI [BackQuant]Open Interest RSI
A multi-venue open interest oscillator that aggregates OI across major derivatives exchanges, converts it to coin or USD terms, and runs an RSI-style engine on that aggregated OI so you can track positioning pressure, crowding, and mean reversion in leverage flows, not just in price.
What this is
This tool is an RSI built on top of aggregated open interest instead of price. It pulls futures OI from several major exchanges, converts it into a unified unit (COIN or USD), sums it into a single synthetic OI candle, then applies RSI and smoothing to that combined series.
You can then render that Open Interest RSI in different visual modes:
Clean line or colored line for classic oscillator-style reads.
Column-style oscillator for impulse and compression views.
Flag mode that fills between OI RSI and its EMA for trend/mean reversion blends. See:
Heatmap mode that paints the panel based on OI RSI extremes, ideal for scanning. See:
On top of that it includes:
Aggregated OI source selection (Binance, Bybit, OKX, Bitget, Kraken, HTX, Deribit).
Choice of OI units (COIN or USD).
Reference lines and OB/OS zones.
Extreme highlighting for either trend or mean reversion.
A vertical OI RSI meter that acts as a quick strength gauge.
Aggregated open interest source
Under the hood, the indicator builds a synthetic open interest candle by:
Looping over a list of supported exchanges: Binance, Bybit, OKX, Bitget, Kraken, HTX, Deribit.
Looping over multiple contract suffixes (such as USDT.P, USD.P, USDC.P, USD.PM) to capture different contract types on each venue.
Requesting OI candles from each venue + contract combination for the same underlying symbol.
Converting each OI stream into a common unit: In COIN mode, everything is normalized into coin-denominated OI. In USD mode, coin OI is multiplied by price to approximate notional OI.
Summing up open, high, low and close of OI across venues into a single aggregated OI candle.
If no valid OI is available for the current symbol across all sources, the script throws a clear runtime error so you know you are on an unsupported market.
This gives you a single, exchange-agnostic open interest curve instead of being tied to one venue. That aggregated OI is then passed into the RSI logic.
How the OI RSI is calculated
The RSI side is straightforward, but it is applied to the aggregated OI close:
Compute a base RSI of aggregated OI using the Calculation Period .
Apply a simple moving average of length Smoothing Period (SMA) to reduce noise in the raw OI RSI.
Optionally apply an EMA on top of the smoothed OI RSI as a moving average signal line.
Key parameters:
Calculation Period – base RSI length for OI.
Smoothing Period (SMA) – extra smoothing on the RSI value.
EMA Period – EMA length on the smoothed OI RSI.
The result is:
oi_rsi – raw RSI of aggregated OI.
oi_rsi_s – SMA-smoothed OI RSI.
ma – EMA of the smoothed OI RSI.
Thresholds and extremes
You control three core thresholds:
Mid Point – central reference level, typically 50.
Extreme Upper Threshold – high-level OI RSI edge (for example 80).
Extreme Lower Threshold – low-level OI RSI edge (for example 20).
These thresholds are used for:
Reference lines or OB/OS zone fills.
Heatmap gradient bounds.
Background highlighting of extremes.
The Extreme Highlighting mode controls how extremes are interpreted:
None – do nothing special in extreme regions.
Mean-Rev – background turns red on high OI RSI and green on low OI RSI, framing extremes as contrarian zones.
Trend – background turns green on high OI RSI and red on low OI RSI, framing extremes as participation zones aligned with the prevailing move.
Reference lines and OB/OS zones
You can choose:
None – clean plotting without guides.
Basic Reference Lines – mid, upper and lower thresholds as simple gray horizontals.
OB/OS Levels – filled zones between:
Upper OB: from the upper threshold to 100, colored with the short/overbought color.
Lower OS: from 0 to the lower threshold, colored with the long/oversold color.
These guides help visually anchor the OI RSI within "normal" versus "extreme" regions.
Plotting modes
The Plotting Type input controls how OI RSI is drawn. All modes share the same underlying OI and RSI logic, but emphasise different aspects of the signal.
1) Line mode
This is the classic oscillator representation:
Plots the smoothed OI RSI as a simple line using RSI Line Color and RSI Line Width .
Optionally plots the EMA overlay on the same panel.
Works well when you want standard RSI-style signals on leverage flows: crosses of the midline, divergences versus price, and so on.
2) Colored Line mode
In this mode:
The OI RSI is plotted as a line, but its color is dynamic.
If the smoothed OI RSI is above the mid point, it uses the Long/OB Color .
If it is below the mid point, it uses the Short/OS Color .
This creates an instant visual regime switch between "bullish positioning pressure" and "bearish positioning pressure", while retaining the feel of a traditional RSI line.
3) Oscillator mode
Oscillator mode renders OI RSI as vertical columns around the mid level:
The smoothed OI RSI is plotted as columns using plot.style_columns .
The histogram base is fixed at 50, so bars extend above and below the mid line.
Bar color is dynamic, using long or short colors depending on which side of the mid point the value sits.
This representation makes impulse and compression in OI flows more obvious. It is especially useful when you want to focus on how quickly OI RSI is expanding or contracting around its neutral level. See:
4) Flag mode
Flag mode turns OI RSI and its EMA into a two-line band with a filled area between them:
The smoothed OI RSI and its EMA are both plotted.
A fill is drawn between them.
The fill color flips between the long color and the short color depending on whether OI RSI is above or below its EMA.
Black outlines are added to both lines to make the band clear against any background.
This creates a "flag" style region where:
Green fills show OI RSI leading its EMA, suggesting positive positioning momentum.
Red fills show OI RSI trailing below its EMA, suggesting negative positioning momentum.
Crossovers of the two lines can be read as shifts in OI momentum regime.
Flag mode is useful if you want a more structural view that combines both the level and slope behaviour of OI RSI. See:
5) Heatmap mode
Heatmap mode recasts OI RSI as a single-row gradient instead of a line:
A single row at level 1 is plotted using column style.
The color is pulled from a gradient between the lower and upper thresholds: Near the lower threshold it approaches the short/oversold color and near the upper threshold it approaches the long/overbought color.
The EMA overlay and reference lines are disabled in this mode to keep the panel clean.
This is a very compact way to track OI RSI state at a glance, especially when stacking it alongside other indicators. See:
OI RSI vertical meter
Beyond the main plot, the script can draw a small "thermometer" table showing the current OI RSI position from 0 to 100:
The meter is a two-column table with a configurable number of rows.
Row colors form an inverted gradient: red at the top (100) and green at the bottom (0).
The script clamps OI RSI between 0 and 100 and maps it to a row index.
An arrow marker "▶" is drawn next to the row corresponding to the current OI RSI value.
0 and 100 labels are printed at the ends of the scale for orientation.
You control:
Show OI RSI Meter – turn the meter on or off.
OI RSI Blocks – number of vertical blocks (granularity).
OI RSI Meter Position – panel anchor (top/bottom, left/center/right).
The meter is particularly helpful if you keep the main plot in a small panel but still want an intuitive strength gauge.
How to read it as a market pressure gauge
Because this is an RSI built on aggregated open interest, its extremes and regimes speak to positioning pressure rather than price alone:
High OI RSI (near or above the upper threshold) indicates that open interest has been increasing aggressively relative to its recent history. This often coincides with crowded leverage and a buildup of directional pressure.
Low OI RSI (near or below the lower threshold) indicates aggressive de-leveraging or closing of positions, often associated with flushes, forced unwinds or post-liquidation clean-ups.
Values around the mid point indicate more balanced positioning flows.
You can combine this with price action:
Price up with rising OI RSI suggests fresh leverage joining the move, a more persistent trend.
Price up with falling OI RSI suggests shorts covering or longs taking profit, more fragile upside.
Price down with rising OI RSI suggests aggressive new shorts or levered selling.
Price down with falling OI RSI suggests de-leveraging and potential exhaustion of the move.
Trading applications
Trend confirmation on leverage flows
Use OI RSI to confirm or question a price trend:
In an uptrend, rising OI RSI with values above the mid point indicates supportive leverage flows.
In an uptrend, repeated failures to lift OI RSI above mid point or persistent weakness suggest less committed participation.
In a downtrend, strong OI RSI on the downside points to aggressive shorting.
Mean reversion in positioning
Use thresholds and the Mean-Rev highlight mode:
When OI RSI spends extended time above the upper threshold, the crowd is extended on one side. That can set up squeeze risk in the opposite direction.
When OI RSI has been pinned low, it suggests heavy de-leveraging. Once price stabilises, a re-risking phase is often not far away.
Background colours in Mean-Rev mode help visually identify these periods.
Regime mapping with plotting modes
Different plotting modes give different perspectives:
Heatmap mode for dashboard-style use where you just need to know "hot", "neutral" or "cold" on OI flows at a glance.
Oscillator mode for short term impulses and compression reads around the mid line. See:
Flag mode for blending level and trend of OI RSI into a single banded visual. See:

Models aggregated futures open interest across multiple centralized exchanges.
Transforms that OI into an RSI-style oscillator for better comparability across regimes.
Offers several visual modes to match different workflows, from detailed analysis to compact dashboards.
Use it to understand how leverage and positioning are evolving behind the price, to gauge when the crowd is stretched, and to decide whether to lean with or against that pressure. Attach it to your existing signals, not in place of them.

Strategy: HMA 50 + Supertrend SniperHMA 50 + Supertrend Confluence Strategy (Trend Following with Noise Filtering)
Description:
Introduction and Concept This strategy is designed to solve a common problem in trend-following trading: Lag vs. False Signals. Standard Moving Averages often lag too much, while price action indicators can generate false signals during choppy markets. This script combines the speed of the Hull Moving Average (HMA) with the volatility-based filtering of the Supertrend indicator to create a robust "Confluence System."
The primary goal of this script is not just to overlay two indicators, but to enforce a strict rule where a trade is only taken when Momentum (HMA) and Volatility Direction (Supertrend) are in perfect agreement.
Why this combination? (The Logic Behind the Mashup)
Hull Moving Average (HMA 50): We use the HMA because it significantly reduces lag compared to SMA or EMA by using weighted calculations. It acts as our primary Trend Direction detector. However, HMA can be too sensitive and "whipsaw" during sideways markets.
Supertrend (ATR-based): We use the Supertrend (Factor 3.0, Period 10) as our Volatility Filter. It uses Average True Range (ATR) to determine the significant trend boundary.
How it Works (Methodology) The strategy uses a boolean logic system to filter out low-quality trades:
Bullish Confluence: The HMA must be rising (Slope > 0) AND the Close Price must be above the Supertrend line (Uptrend).
Bearish Confluence: The HMA must be falling (Slope < 0) AND the Close Price must be below the Supertrend line (Downtrend).
The "Choppy Zone" (Noise Filter): This is a unique feature of this script. If the HMA indicates one direction (e.g., Rising) but the Supertrend indicates the opposite (e.g., Downtrend), the market is considered "Choppy" or indecisive. In this state, the script paints the candles or HMA line Gray and exits all positions (optional setting) to preserve capital.
Visual Guide & Signals To make the script easy to interpret for traders who do not read Pine Script, I have implemented specific visual cues:
Green Cross (+): Indicates a LONG entry signal. Both HMA and Supertrend align bullishly.
Red Cross (X): Indicates a SHORT entry signal. Both HMA and Supertrend align bearishly.
Thick Line (HMA): The main line changes color based on the trend.
Green: Bullish Confluence.
Red: Bearish Confluence.
Gray: Divergence/Choppy (No Trade Zone).
Thin Step Line: This is the Supertrend line, serving as your dynamic Trailing Stop Loss.
Strategy Settings
HMA Length: Default is 50 (Mid-term trend).
ATR Factor/Period: Default is 3.0/10 (Standard for trend catching).
Exit on Choppy: A toggle switch allowing users to decide whether to hold through noise or exit immediately when indicators disagree.
Risk Warning This strategy performs best in trending markets (Forex, Crypto, Indices). Like all trend-following systems, it may experience drawdown during prolonged accumulation/distribution phases. Please backtest with your specific asset before using it with real capital.
Adaptive Trend Mapper-ATM (Arjo)Adaptive Trend Mapper (ATM) is a multi-factor trend, momentum, and compression-analysis tool designed to help traders visually map the strength and direction of market pressure.
Instead of simply combining existing indicators, ATM creates a new composite framework that blends momentum imbalance, directional strength, volatility contraction, and adaptive smoothing into a single, unified model.
Originality and usefulness
Adaptive Trend Mapper (ATM) does not replicate any one indicator.
It generates two custom indices— Bull Pressure Index and Bear Pressure Index —derived from a mathematical combination of RSI, inverse-RSI, and ADX. These indices behave differently from traditional oscillators:
They represent directional pressure on a 0–100 scale , not momentum.
They are designed to converge/diverge, forming a basis for the built-in Squeeze Detection Engine.
They can be optionally step-compressed , making the movement easier to read on fast or small charts.
The script also integrates a custom SuperSmoother trend model (not TradingView’s built-in function), which acts as an adaptive trend curve on the chart.
All calculations are combined intentionally—not as a mashup—to create a framework that allows traders to understand trend strength, compression phases, and micro-trend shifts in one place.
How the Indicator Works
1. Bull & Bear Pressure Indices:
These indices measure directional imbalance:
Bull Index = ADX strength weighted against inverse-RSI
Bear Index = ADX strength weighted against normal RSI
This produces two opposing pressure curves that rise or fall depending on whether buyers or sellers dominate.
You can optionally smooth these using:
SMA / EMA / WMA / RMA via the “Smoothing Settings” panel.
2. Squeeze & Compression Detection:
A squeeze is detected when:
ADX stays below a user-defined threshold
Bull–Bear Index difference shrinks
Average difference is falling (convergence)
This is a volatility-contraction model inspired by squeeze logic but applied to directional pressure, not Bollinger Bands/Keltner Channels .
3. Adaptive Trend Curve (SuperSmoother Engine)
The indicator applies a two-pole SuperSmoother filter to the price, then smooths it again using EMA.
The slope color flips between bullish and bearish and is displayed using:
A thin SuperSmoother curve
A thicker band for visual context
4. EMA-50 Trend Context:
An optional EMA-50 helps identify broad directional bias .
5. Step-Based Scaling
You can quantize the Bull/Bear indices using custom step intervals.
This makes the indicator easier to read on noisy intraday charts.
How to Use the Indicator
1. Trend Analysis
A rising Bull Index shows strengthening upward pressure
A rising Bear Index shows strengthening downward pressure
Wide divergence between the indices signals a strong trend
2. Compression / Squeeze Analysis
Yellow background = volatility compression + pressure convergence
Breakouts from this zone often precede directional expansion
3. Trendline Reading
SuperSmoother line color flip = micro trend shift
EMA-50 slope gives macro-trend direction
Perfect for combining trend and momentum maps on the same chart
4. Visual Interpretation
Cyan/teal → strong bullish pressure
Purple/red/orange → various levels of bearish control
Neutral/teal background → weak ADX
Yellow background → squeeze zone
Open-Source Notes
This script uses:
TradingView built-in RSI, ADX/DMI, and smoothing functions
A SuperSmoother implementation based on known DSP filter coefficients
All remaining logic, signal methods, composite indices, and compression model are original developments by ARJO .
The script is published open-source to comply with TradingView’s reuse policy.

Filter Ribbon1. Indicator Name
Filter Ribbon
2. One-line Introduction
A trend visualization ribbon that uses linear regression and directional scoring to highlight bullish and bearish strength with intuitive color gradients.
3. General Overview
Filter Ribbon is a minimalistic yet powerful trend visualization tool that leverages linear regression slope ordering to determine directional momentum. It analyzes the ordering of regression values over a defined lookback period and quantifies how consistently the price has been trending upward or downward.
Using a pairwise comparison system, it calculates a trend "score" and compares this to a configurable threshold to determine if a bullish, bearish, or neutral condition exists.
The result is a color-coded ribbon that sits over the chart, changing hue and opacity based on both the direction and strength of the trend. The stronger the directional alignment, the more opaque the ribbon becomes, offering traders a fast, intuitive way to assess market sentiment at a glance.
It also includes an optional linear regression line to further help visualize the central trend.
This indicator is best used in trend-following systems or as a dynamic background layer when combined with signal-based strategies.
Thanks to its efficient design and protected logic, Filter Ribbon offers high-performance visualization without compromising strategy integrity.
4. Key Advantages
🌈 Visual Trend Heatmap
Dynamic color ribbon gives real-time visual feedback on both trend direction and strength.
🔢 Quantified Trend Scoring
Calculates a mathematically sound trend score using pairwise linear regression comparisons.
⚖️ Adjustable Sensitivity
Users can tune lookback and threshold parameters to fit different asset classes and timeframes.
📉 Smooth Ribbon Effect
Plots upper/lower bands around regression line with smooth filling for a professional chart look.
🎯 Precise Trend Confirmation
Acts as a confidence layer for other entry/exit signals by confirming broader trend bias.
🔒 Secure and Minimal Codebase
Core logic is embedded securely with minimal exposure, reducing risk of replication or misuse.
📘 Indicator User Guide
📌 Basic Concept
Filter Ribbon determines trend direction and intensity by comparing the order of linear regression values over time.
It forms a ribbon on the chart that changes color based on trend direction and opacity based on trend strength.
This makes it ideal for identifying clear trending periods vs. uncertain consolidations.
⚙️ Settings Explained
Lookback Period: Number of bars for scoring the trend direction (higher = smoother trend)
Range Tolerance (%): Determines how aggressive the trend classification is (lower = stricter)
Regression Length: Period for calculating the base linear regression line
Ribbon Colors: Customize colors for bullish and bearish conditions
📈 Bullish Timing Example
Ribbon color is green and becomes increasingly opaque
Regression line slopes upward and price remains above it
Can be used as trend confirmation for long trades
📉 Bearish Timing Example
Ribbon color is red with higher opacity
Price consistently below the regression line
Useful for confirming short trade setups or avoiding long entries
🧪 Recommended Use Cases
Combine with breakout indicators to validate if the breakout aligns with broader trend
Use in swing or trend-following strategies as a background filter
Helps filter out trades during unclear, sideways market conditions
🔒 Precautions
Not a signal generator on its own — meant for trend context only
Ribbon may lag slightly during sudden trend reversals; best used with reactive entry tools
Always test ribbon parameters on your specific market/timeframe before applying live
Avoid using solely in low-volatility or flat markets — sensitivity may require tuning

Volatility Signal-to-Noise Ratio🙏🏻 this is VSNR: the most effective and simple volatility regime detector & automatic volatility threshold scaler that somehow no1 ever talks about.
This is simply an inverse of the coefficient of variation of absolute returns, but properly constructed taking into account temporal information, and made online via recursive math with algocomplexity O(1) both in expanding and moving windows modes.
How do the available alternatives differ (while some’re just worse)?
Mainstream quant stat tests like Durbin-Watson, Dickey-Fuller etc: default implementations are ALL not time aware. They measure different kinds of regime, which is less (if at all) relevant for actual trading context. Mix of different math, high algocomplexity.
The closest one is MMI by financialhacker, but his approach is also not time aware, and has a higher algocomplexity anyways. Best alternative to mine, but pls modify it to use a time-weighted median.
Fractal dimension & its derivatives by John Ehlers: again not time aware, very low info gain, relies on bar sizes (high and lows), which don’t always exist unlike changes between datapoints. But it’s a geometric tool in essence, so this is fundamental. Let it watch your back if you already use it.
Hurst exponent: much higher algocomplexity, mix of parametric and non-parametric math inside. An invention, not a math entity. Again, not time aware. Also measures different kinds of regime.
How to set it up:
Given my other tools, I choose length so that it will match the amount of data that your trading method or study uses multiplied by ~ 4-5. E.g if you use some kind of bands to trade volatility and you calculate them over moving window 64, put VSNR on 256.
However it depends mathematically on many things, so for your methods you may instead need multipliers of 1 or ~ 16.
Additionally if you wanna use all data to estimate SNR, put 0 into length input.
How to use for regime detection:
First we define:
MR bias: mean reversion bias meaning volatility shorts would work better, fading levels would work better
Momo bias: momentum bias meaning volatility longs would work better, trading breakouts of levels would work better.
The study plots 3 horizontal thresholds for VSNR, just check its location:
Above upper level: significant Momo bias
Above 1 : Momo bias
Below 1 : MR bias
Below lower level: significant MR bias
Take a look at the screenshots, 2 completely different volatility regimes are spotted by VSNR, while an ADF does not show different regime:
^^ CBOT:ZN1!
^^ INDEX:BTCUSD
How to use as automatic volatility threshold scaler
Copy the code from the script, and use VSNR as a multiplier for your volatility threshold.
E.g you use a regression channel and fade/push upper and lower thresholds which are RMSEs multiples. Inside the code, multiply RMSE by VSNR, now you’re adaptive.
^^ The same logic as when MM bots widen spreads with vola goes wild.
How it works:
Returns follow Laplace distro -> logically abs returns follow exponential distro , cuz laplace = double exponential.
Exponential distro has a natural coefficient of variation = 1 -> signal to noise ratio defined as mean/stdev = 1 as well. The same can be said for Student t distro with parameter v = 4. So 1 is our main threshold.
We can add additional thresholds by discovering SNRs of Student t with v = 3 and v = 5 (+- 1 from baseline v = 4). These have lighter & heavier tails each favoring mean reversion or momentum more. I computed the SNR values you see in the code with mpmath python module, with precision 256 decimals, so you can trust it I put it on my momma.
Then I use exponential smoothing with properly defined alphas (one matches cumulative WMA and another minimizes error with WMA in moving window mode) to estimate SNR of abs returns.
…
Lightweight huh?

Average Directional Index infoAverage Directional Index (ADX) is a technical indicator created by J. Welles Wilder that measures trend strength (not direction!). Values range from 0 to 100.
This indicator is a supplementary tool for assessing whether trend strategies are worthwhile, monitoring changes in trend strength and avoiding weak, choppy movements
Value Interpretation:
0-25: Weak trend or sideways market
25-50: Moderate to strong trend
50-75: Very strong trend
75-100: Extremely strong trend (rare)
Important: ADX does not indicate trend direction (up/down), only its strength!
This script indicator includes additional features:
1. ADX Plot (purple line)
Basic ADX value showing current trend strength.
2. ADX Trend Analysis (arrows)
The script compares current ADX with its 10-period moving average with ±5% tolerance:
↑ (green): ADX rising → trend strengthening
↓ (red): ADX falling → trend weakening
⮆ (gray): ADX stable → trend strength unchanged
3. Information Table
Displays current ADX value with trend arrow in the top-right corner.
Parameters to Configure
Smoothing (default: 14) - Indicator smoothing period
Lower values (e.g., 7): more sensitive, more signals
Higher values (e.g., 21): more stable, less noise
Indicator Length (default: 14) - Period for calculating directional movement (+DI/-DI)
Wilder's standard value is 14
Trend Length (default: 10) - Period for moving average to analyze ADX dynamics
Determines how quickly changes in trend strength are detected
Practical Application
✅ Strategy 1: Trend Strength Filter
1. ADX > 25 → look for positions aligned with the trend
2. ADX < 25 → avoid trend strategies, consider oscillators
✅ Strategy 2: Entries on Strengthening Trend
1. ADX crosses above 25 + arrow ↑ → trend gaining momentum
2. Combine with other indicators (e.g., EMA) for direction confirmation
✅ Strategy 3: Exhaustion Warning
1. ADX > 50 + arrow ↓ → strong trend may be exhausting
2. Consider profit protection or trailing stop

Average True Range % infoATR% is a modified version of the classic Average True Range indicator that displays price volatility as a percentage of the instrument's value, rather than in absolute values. This allows you to easily compare the volatility of different assets (e.g., Bitcoin vs Tesla stock) regardless of their price.
Main Features
1. ATR% Chart
The red line shows the average volatility from the last N candles (default 14), expressed as a percentage. For example:
ATR% = 2.5% means that the average daily move is approximately 2.5% of the asset's value
Higher values = greater volatility (higher profit potential, but also greater risk)
Lower values = lower volatility (calmer market)
2. Volatility Trend Analysis
The indicator automatically detects whether volatility is rising, falling, or stable:
Up arrow (↑) - volatility is rising (price becomes more "nervous")
Down arrow (↓) - volatility is falling (market is calming down)
Horizontal arrow (⮆) - volatility is stable (within ±3% of the moving average)
3. Information Table
In the upper right corner of the chart you will see Current ATR% value and Trend arrow with color coding:
- Green = rising volatility
- Red = falling volatility
- Gray = stable volatility
Parameters to Configure
Indicator Length (default: 14) - How many candles back to include in calculations:
Lower values (5-10): more sensitive to sudden changes, reacts faster
Higher values (20-30): more smoothed, shows long-term volatility picture
Trend Length (default: 10) - Period to analyze whether volatility is rising/falling:
Lower values: faster trend change signals
Higher values: more reliable, but slower signals
Sample Interpretations
ATR% Volatility Asset Type/Situation
< 1% Very low Stable blue-chip stocks, calm market
1-3% Low-medium Typical stocks, normal conditions
3-5% Medium-high Volatile stocks, cryptocurrencies at rest
5-10% High Cryptocurrencies, penny stocks
> 10% Extremely high Market panic, crash, pump & dump
ATH/ATL/DaysThis indicator displays the All-Time High (ATH) and All-Time Low (ATL) — or more precisely, the highest and lowest price within the last N days. It works on any timeframe and uses only local chart data (no security() calls), ensuring stable and accurate results.
It plots horizontal lines for both the ATH and ATL and includes a clean, compact table showing:
Date of the extreme
Days since it occurred
Price
% distance from current price
$ distance from current price
A reliable tool for identifying local extremes, spotting market structure shifts, and tracking short-term price ranges.
TICK Indicator with Extreme AlertsOverview:
This indicator is designed to provide intraday traders (especially those trading SPX, ES, and NQ) with a clearer NYSE TICK analysis tool featuring visual alerts. Unlike traditional TICK line charts, this indicator utilizes OHLC Candlesticks to display data, allowing you to fully view the Open, High, Low, and Close within a specific timeframe, thereby capturing instantaneous liquidity sweeps.
Core Features & Logic:
Candlestick Visualization (OHLC Candles): Uses the USI:TICK.US data source by default. The candlestick patterns allow you to clearly see if the TICK pierced key levels intraday but retraced by the close—vital information that standard line charts often miss.
Dual Key Level System: The indicator is designed with two independent reference tiers for trend observation and reversal detection:
Reference Lines (+/- 800): Marked by gray dashed lines. These represent the standard bull/bear dividing zones. When TICK sustains above +800 or below -800, it typically indicates a strong trending market.
Extreme Alerts (+/- 1000): These thresholds are used to identify extreme market sentiment (overbought/oversold conditions).
Background Highlight Alerts (Visual Alerts): To reduce screen-watching fatigue, the indicator automatically highlights the candlestick background when extreme market sentiment occurs:
Green Background: Triggered when TICK High breaks above +1000. Represents extreme buying sentiment, potentially indicating exhaustion or a short squeeze.
Red Background: Triggered when TICK Low drops below -1000. Represents extreme panic selling (Washout), often serving as a potential signal for an intraday reversal or a short-term bottom.
Custom Settings:
All thresholds (800 reference lines, 1000 alert lines) are fully adjustable in the settings.
All colors (Candles, Reference Lines, Background Alert Colors) can be customized.
Use Cases: This tool is ideal for intraday counter-trend or trend-following trading when combined with Price Action analysis and key Support & Resistance levels.
Liquidity ThermometerThis is a universal indicator that assesses market liquidity based on five key market parameters: volume, volatility, candlestick range, body size, and price momentum.
The indicator does not use open interest data and is suitable for all markets, including spot, futures, and Forex.
This indicator normalizes each metric historically and creates a composite index between 0 and 1, where higher values correspond to a stable and calm market environment, and lower values indicate periods of increased risk and potential liquidity stress.
LT generates an integral liquidity index in the range based on five normalized components:
-nVol — normalized volume, reflecting trading density and activity.
-nATR — the volatility component (ATR), inverted, as high volatility is typically associated with declining liquidity.
-nRange — the normalized candlestick range, also inverted to assess the structural narrowness of the price movement.
-nBody — the normalized candlestick body size (|close − open|), inverted to assess the balance of supply and demand.
-nMove — the normalized value of the price impulse movement (|Δclose|), reflecting short-term price spikes.
Each metric is linearly normalized over a sliding window (200 bars) using the formula:
norm(x) = (x − min) / (max − min),
where at max = min, the value is fixed at 0.5 to ensure stability.
The ALT index is calculated as a weighted combination:
ALT = 0.35 nVol + 0.20 (1 − nATR) + 0.20 (1 − nRange) + 0.15 (1 − nBody) + 0.10 (1 − nMove)
The result is further smoothed using EMA(3) to reduce micronoise.
Red Zone (MLI < 0.25) — Risk, Thin Liquidity
When the indicator falls into the red zone, it means the market is extremely volatile:
Characteristics:
Low volume — small trades have a strong impact on the price.
High volatility — candlesticks rise or fall sharply.
Wide candlestick range — the market is "breathing heavily," easily breaking price extremes.
Impulsive movements — small market shocks lead to sharp spikes.
Thin liquidity — few orders in the order book, large orders "eat up" the market.
What this means for a trader:
🔥 High risk of spikes and false breakouts.
⚠ Possible series of liquidations on leverage.
❌ It is not recommended to enter long or short positions without a filter or protection.
✅ Can be used for short scalping strategies if you know the entry point, but very carefully.
Green Zone (MLI > 0.75) — High Liquidity, Safe Zone
When the indicator rises into the green zone, it means the market is stable and balanced:
Characteristics:
High volume — the market is deep, orders are executed without a strong impact on the price.
Low volatility — candlesticks are stable, no sharp spikes.
Narrow candlestick range — price moves calmly.
Weak impulse movements — no sharp surges.
Sufficient liquidity — the market can handle large orders.
What this means for a trader:
✅ Safe zone for opening positions.
🔄 Easier to set stop-loss and take-profit orders.
💡 You can trade both up and down, the risk of sharp movements is minimal.
⚡ Under these conditions, there is a lower risk of spikes and accidental liquidations.
It does not predict price movements or guarantee results. It is an analytical tool intended for additional research into market structure.
