Traffic Light MA — Trend IndicatorThis script displays a simple “traffic light” circle that reflects the market trend based on two moving averages (MA).
-Green: Price > Fast MA > Slow MA → Uptrend confirmation
-Yellow: Mixed conditions (transition zone)
-Red: Slow MA > Fast MA > Price → Downtrend confirmation
You can customize:
-MA type (SMA or EMA)
-Lengths of both MAs
-Timeframe used for evaluation (e.g. Daily, 4H, Weekly)
This tool is designed for traders who prefer a minimalistic chart, showing only a clean color signal instead of multiple lines.
Recommendation:
For small MAs (8,15,21) use EMA, for big MAs (50,100,200) use SMA

IIR One-Pole Price Filter [BackQuant]IIR One-Pole Price Filter
A lightweight, mathematically grounded smoothing filter derived from signal processing theory, designed to denoise price data while maintaining minimal lag. It provides a refined alternative to the classic Exponential Moving Average (EMA) by directly controlling the filter’s responsiveness through three interchangeable alpha modes: EMA-Length , Half-Life , and Cutoff-Period .
Concept overview
An IIR (Infinite Impulse Response) filter is a type of recursive filter that blends current and past input values to produce a smooth, continuous output. The "one-pole" version is its simplest form, consisting of a single recursive feedback loop that exponentially decays older price information. This makes it both memory-efficient and responsive , ideal for traders seeking a precise balance between noise reduction and reaction speed.
Unlike standard moving averages, the IIR filter can be tuned in physically meaningful terms (such as half-life or cutoff frequency) rather than just arbitrary periods. This allows the trader to think about responsiveness in the same way an engineer or physicist would interpret signal smoothing.
Why use it
Filters out market noise without introducing heavy lag like higher-order smoothers.
Adapts to various trading speeds and time horizons by changing how alpha (responsiveness) is parameterized.
Provides consistent and mathematically interpretable control of smoothing, suitable for both discretionary and algorithmic systems.
Can serve as the core component in adaptive strategies, volatility normalization, or trend extraction pipelines.
Alpha Modes Explained
EMA-Length : Classic exponential decay with alpha = 2 / (L + 1). Equivalent to a standard EMA but exposed directly for fine control.
Half-Life : Defines the number of bars it takes for the influence of a price input to decay by half. More intuitive for time-domain analysis.
Cutoff-Period : Inspired by analog filter theory, defines the cutoff frequency (in bars) beyond which price oscillations are heavily attenuated. Lower periods = faster response.
Formula in plain terms
Each bar updates as:
yₜ = yₜ₋₁ + alpha × (priceₜ − yₜ₋₁)
Where alpha is the smoothing coefficient derived from your chosen mode.
Smaller alpha → smoother but slower response.
Larger alpha → faster but noisier response.
Practical application
Trend detection : When the filter line rises, momentum is positive; when it falls, momentum is negative.
Signal timing : Use the crossover of the filter vs its previous value (or price) as an entry/exit condition.
Noise suppression : Apply on volatile assets or lower timeframes to remove flicker from raw price data.
Foundation for advanced filters : The one-pole IIR serves as a building block for multi-pole cascades, adaptive smoothers, and spectral filters.
Customization options
Alpha Scale : Multiplies the final alpha to fine-tune aggressiveness without changing the mode’s core math.
Color Painting : Candles can be painted green/red by trend direction for visual clarity.
Line Width & Transparency : Adjust the visual intensity to integrate cleanly with your charting style.
Interpretation tips
A smooth yet reactive line implies optimal tuning — minimal delay with reduced false flips.
A sluggish line suggests alpha is too small (increase responsiveness).
A noisy, twitchy line means alpha is too large (increase smoothing).
Half-life tuning often feels more natural for aligning filter speed with price cycles or bar duration.
Summary
The IIR One-Pole Price Filter is a signal smoother that merges simplicity with mathematical rigor. Whether you’re filtering for entry signals, generating trend overlays, or constructing larger multi-stage systems, this filter delivers stability, clarity, and precision control over noise versus lag, an essential tool for any quantitative or systematic trading approach.
MESA Adaptive Ehlers Flow | AlphaNattMESA Adaptive Ehlers Flow | AlphaNatt
An advanced adaptive indicator based on John Ehlers' MESA (Maximum Entropy Spectrum Analysis) algorithm that automatically adjusts to market cycles in real-time, providing superior trend identification with minimal lag across all market conditions.
🎯 What Makes This Indicator Revolutionary?
Unlike traditional moving averages with fixed parameters, this indicator uses Hilbert Transform mathematics to detect the dominant market cycle and adapts its responsiveness accordingly:
Automatically detects market cycles using advanced signal processing
MAMA (MESA Adaptive Moving Average) adapts from fast to slow based on cycle phase
FAMA (Following Adaptive Moving Average) provides confirmation signals
Dynamic volatility bands that expand and contract with cycle detection
Zero manual optimization required - the indicator tunes itself
📊 Core Components
1. MESA Adaptive Moving Average (MAMA)
The MAMA is the crown jewel of adaptive indicators. It uses the Hilbert Transform to measure the market's dominant cycle and adjusts its smoothing factor in real-time:
During trending phases: Responds quickly to capture moves
During choppy phases: Smooths heavily to filter noise
Transition is automatic and seamless based on price action
Parameters:
Fast Limit: Maximum responsiveness (default: 0.5) - how fast the indicator can adapt
Slow Limit: Minimum responsiveness (default: 0.05) - maximum smoothing during consolidation
2. Following Adaptive Moving Average (FAMA)
The FAMA is a slower version of MAMA that follows the primary signal. The relationship between MAMA and FAMA provides powerful trend confirmation:
MAMA > FAMA: Bullish trend in progress
MAMA < FAMA: Bearish trend in progress
Crossovers signal potential trend changes
3. Hilbert Transform Cycle Detection
The indicator employs sophisticated DSP (Digital Signal Processing) techniques:
Detects the dominant cycle period (1.5 to 50 bars)
Measures phase relationships in the price data
Calculates adaptive alpha values based on cycle dynamics
Continuously updates as market character changes
⚡ Key Features
Adaptive Alpha Calculation
The indicator's "intelligence" comes from its adaptive alpha:
Alpha dynamically adjusts between Fast Limit and Slow Limit based on the rate of phase change in the market cycle. Rapid phase changes trigger faster adaptation, while stable cycles maintain smoother response.
Dynamic Volatility Bands
Unlike static bands, these adapt to both ATR volatility AND the current cycle state:
Bands widen when the indicator detects fast adaptation (trending)
Bands narrow during slow adaptation (consolidation)
Band Multiplier controls overall width (default: 1.5)
Provides context-aware support and resistance
Intelligent Color Coding
Cyan: Bullish regime (MAMA > FAMA and price > MAMA)
Magenta: Bearish regime (MAMA < FAMA and price < MAMA)
Gray: Neutral/transitional state
📈 Trading Strategies
Trend Following Strategy
The MESA indicator excels at identifying and riding strong trends while automatically reducing sensitivity during choppy periods.
Entry Signals:
Long: MAMA crosses above FAMA with price closing above MAMA
Short: MAMA crosses below FAMA with price closing below MAMA
Exit/Management:
Exit longs when MAMA crosses below FAMA
Exit shorts when MAMA crosses above FAMA
Use dynamic bands as trailing stop references
Mean Reversion Strategy
When price extends beyond the dynamic bands during established trends, look for bounces back toward the MAMA line.
Setup Conditions:
Strong trend confirmed by MAMA/FAMA alignment
Price touches or exceeds outer band
Enter on first sign of reversal toward MAMA
Target: Return to MAMA line or opposite band
Cycle-Based Swing Trading
The indicator's cycle detection makes it ideal for swing trading:
Enter on MAMA/FAMA crossovers
Hold through the detected cycle period
Exit on counter-crossover or band extremes
Works exceptionally well on 4H to Daily timeframes
🔬 Technical Background
The Hilbert Transform
The Hilbert Transform is a mathematical operation used in signal processing to extract instantaneous phase and frequency information from a signal. In trading applications:
Separates trend from cycle components
Identifies the dominant market cycle without curve-fitting
Provides leading indicators of trend changes
MESA Algorithm Components
Smoothing: 4-bar weighted moving average for noise reduction
Detrending: Removes linear price trend to isolate cycles
InPhase & Quadrature: Orthogonal components for phase measurement
Homodyne Discriminator: Calculates instantaneous period
Adaptive Alpha: Converts period to smoothing factor
MAMA/FAMA: Final adaptive moving averages
⚙️ Optimization Guide
Fast Limit (0.1 - 0.9)
Higher values (0.5-0.9): More responsive, better for volatile markets and lower timeframes
Lower values (0.1-0.3): Smoother response, better for stable markets and higher timeframes
Default 0.5: Balanced for most applications
Slow Limit (0.01 - 0.1)
Higher values (0.05-0.1): Less smoothing during consolidation, more signals
Lower values (0.01-0.03): Heavy smoothing during chop, fewer but cleaner signals
Default 0.05: Good noise filtering while maintaining responsiveness
Band Multiplier (0.5 - 3.0)
Adjust based on instrument volatility
Backtest to find optimal value for your specific market
1.5 works well for most forex and equity indices
Consider higher values (2.0-2.5) for cryptocurrencies
🎨 Visual Interpretation
The gradient visualization shows probability zones around the MESA line:
MESA line: The adaptive trend center
Band expansion: Indicates strong cycle detection and trending
Band contraction: Indicates consolidation or ranging market
Color intensity: Shows confidence in trend direction
💡 Best Practices
Let it adapt: Give the indicator 50+ bars to properly calibrate to the market
Combine timeframes: Use higher timeframe MESA for trend bias, lower for entries
Respect the bands: Price rarely stays outside bands for extended periods
Watch for compression: Narrow bands often precede explosive moves
Volume confirmation: Combine with volume for higher probability setups
📊 Optimal Timeframes
15m - 1H: Day trading with Fast Limit 0.6-0.8
4H - Daily: Swing trading with Fast Limit 0.4-0.6 (recommended)
Weekly: Position trading with Fast Limit 0.2-0.4
⚠️ Important Considerations
The indicator needs time to "learn" the market - avoid trading the first 50 bars after applying
Extreme gap events can temporarily disrupt cycle calculations
Works best in markets with detectable cyclical behavior
Less effective during news events or extreme volatility spikes
Consider the detected cycle period for position holding times
🔍 What Makes MESA Superior?
Compared to traditional indicators:
vs. Fixed MAs: Automatically adjusts to market conditions instead of using one-size-fits-all parameters
vs. Other Adaptive MAs: Uses true DSP mathematics rather than simple volatility adjustments
vs. Manual Optimization: Continuously re-optimizes itself in real-time
vs. Lagging Indicators: Hilbert Transform provides earlier trend change detection
🎓 Understanding Adaptation
The magic of MESA is that it solves the eternal dilemma of technical analysis: be fast and get whipsawed in chop, or be smooth and miss the early move. MESA does both by detecting when to be fast and when to be smooth.
Adaptation in Action:
Strong trend starts → MESA quickly detects phase change → Fast Limit kicks in → Early entry
Trend continues → Phase stabilizes → MESA maintains moderate speed → Smooth ride
Consolidation begins → Phase changes slow → Slow Limit engages → Whipsaw avoidance
🚀 Advanced Applications
Multi-timeframe confluence: Use MESA on 3 timeframes for high-probability setups
Divergence detection: Watch for MAMA/price divergences at band extremes
Cycle period analysis: The internal period calculation can guide position duration
Band squeeze trading: Narrow bands + MAMA/FAMA cross = high-probability breakout

Arnaud Legoux Gaussian Flow | AlphaNattArnaud Legoux Gaussian Flow | AlphaNatt
A sophisticated trend-following and mean-reversion indicator that combines the power of the Arnaud Legoux Moving Average (ALMA) with advanced Gaussian distribution analysis to identify high-probability trading opportunities.
🎯 What Makes This Indicator Unique?
This indicator goes beyond traditional moving averages by incorporating Gaussian mathematics at multiple levels:
ALMA uses Gaussian distribution for superior price smoothing with minimal lag
Dynamic envelopes based on Gaussian probability zones
Multi-layer gradient visualization showing probability density
Adaptive envelope modes that respond to market conditions
📊 Core Components
1. Arnaud Legoux Moving Average (ALMA)
The ALMA is a highly responsive moving average that uses Gaussian distribution to weight price data. Unlike simple moving averages, ALMA can be fine-tuned to balance responsiveness and smoothness through three key parameters:
ALMA Period: Controls the lookback window (default: 21)
Gaussian Offset: Shifts the Gaussian curve to adjust lag vs. responsiveness (default: 0.85)
Gaussian Sigma: Controls the width of the Gaussian distribution (default: 6.0)
2. Gaussian Envelope System
The indicator features three envelope calculation modes:
Fixed Mode: Uses ATR-based fixed width for consistent envelope sizing
Adaptive Mode: Dynamically adjusts based on price acceleration and volatility
Hybrid Mode: Combines ATR and standard deviation for balanced adaptation
The envelopes represent statistical probability zones. Price moving beyond these zones suggests potential mean reversion opportunities.
3. Momentum-Adjusted Envelopes
The envelope width automatically expands during strong trends and contracts during consolidation, providing context-aware support and resistance levels.
⚡ Key Features
Multi-Layer Gradient Visualization
The indicator displays 10 gradient layers between the ALMA and envelope boundaries, creating a visual "heat map" of probability density. This helps traders quickly assess:
Distance from the mean
Potential support/resistance strength
Overbought/oversold conditions in context
Dynamic Color Coding
Cyan gradient: Price below ALMA (bullish zone)
Magenta gradient: Price above ALMA (bearish zone)
The ALMA line itself changes color based on price position
Trend Regime Detection
The indicator automatically identifies market regimes:
Strong Uptrend: Trend strength > 0.5% with price above ALMA
Strong Downtrend: Trend strength < -0.5% with price below ALMA
Weak trends and ranging conditions
📈 Trading Strategies
Mean Reversion Strategy
Look for price entering the extreme Gaussian zones (beyond 95% of envelope width) when trend strength is moderate. These represent statistical extremes where mean reversion is probable.
Signals:
Long: Price in lower Gaussian zone with trend strength > -0.5%
Short: Price in upper Gaussian zone with trend strength < 0.5%
Trend Continuation Strategy
Enter when price crosses the ALMA during confirmed strong trend conditions, riding momentum while using the envelope as a trailing stop reference.
Signals:
Long: Price crosses above ALMA during strong uptrend
Short: Price crosses below ALMA during strong downtrend
🎨 Visualization Guide
The gradient layers create a "probability cloud" around the ALMA:
Darker shades (near ALMA): High probability zone - price tends to stay here
Lighter shades (near envelope edges): Lower probability - potential reversal zones
Price at envelope extremes: Statistical outliers - strongest mean reversion setups
⚙️ Customization Options
ALMA Parameters
Adjust period for different timeframes (lower for day trading, higher for swing trading)
Modify offset to tune responsiveness vs. smoothness
Change sigma to control distribution width
Envelope Configuration
Choose envelope mode based on market characteristics
Adjust multiplier to match instrument volatility
Modify gradient depth for visual preference (5-15 layers)
Signal Enhancement
Momentum Length: Lookback for trend strength calculation
Signal Smoothing: Additional EMA smoothing to reduce noise
🔔 Built-in Alerts
The indicator includes six pre-configured alert conditions:
ALMA Trend Long - Price crosses above ALMA in strong uptrend
ALMA Trend Short - Price crosses below ALMA in strong downtrend
Mean Reversion Long - Price enters lower Gaussian zone
Mean Reversion Short - Price enters upper Gaussian zone
Strong Uptrend Detected - Momentum confirms strong bullish regime
Strong Downtrend Detected - Momentum confirms strong bearish regime
💡 Best Practices
Use on clean, liquid markets with consistent volatility
Combine with volume analysis for confirmation
Adjust envelope multiplier based on backtesting for your specific instrument
Higher timeframes (4H+) generally provide more reliable signals
Use adaptive mode for trending markets, hybrid for mixed conditions
⚠️ Important Notes
This indicator works best in markets with normal price distribution
Extreme news events can invalidate Gaussian assumptions temporarily
Always use proper risk management - no indicator is perfect
Backtest parameters on your specific instrument and timeframe
🔬 Technical Background
The Arnaud Legoux Moving Average was developed to solve the classic dilemma of moving averages: the trade-off between lag and noise. By applying Gaussian distribution weighting, ALMA achieves superior smoothing while maintaining responsiveness to price changes.
The envelope system extends this concept by creating probability zones based on volatility and momentum, effectively mapping where price is "likely" vs "unlikely" to be found based on statistical principles.

Earnings Day - Price Predictor [DunesIsland]It's designed to analyze and visualize historical stock price movements on earnings report days, focusing on percentage changes.
Here's a breakdown of what it does, step by step:
Key Inputs and Setup
User Input: There's a single input for "Lookback Years" (default: 10), which determines how far back in time (approximately) the indicator analyzes earnings data. It uses a rough calculation of milliseconds in that period to filter historical data.
Data Fetching: It uses TradingView's request.earnings function to pull actual earnings per share (EPS) data for the current ticker. Earnings days are identified where EPS data exists on a bar but not on the previous one (to avoid duplicates).
Price Change Calculation: For each detected earnings day, it computes the percentage price movement as (close - close ) / close * 100, representing the change from the previous close to the current close on that day.
Processing and Calculations (on the Last Bar)
Lookback Filter: It calculates a cutoff timestamp for the lookback period and processes only earnings events within that window.
Overall Averages:
Separates positive (≥0%) and negative (<0%) percentage changes.
Seasonality (Next Quarter Prediction):
Identifies the most recent earnings quarter (latest_q).
Predicts the "next" quarter (e.g., if latest is Q4, next is Q1;
Again, separates positive and negative changes, computing their respective averages.
Visual Outputs
Lookback: How far to fetch the data in years.
Average Change (Green): Showing the average of all positive changes.
Average Change (Red): Showing the average of all negative changes.
Seasonality Change (Green): Showing the average of positive changes for the predicted next quarter.
Seasonality Change (Red): Showing the average of negative changes for the predicted next quarter.
Purpose and Usage
This indicator helps traders assess a stock's historical reaction to earnings announcements. The overall averages give a broad sense of typical gains/losses, while the seasonality focuses on quarter-specific trends to "predict" potential movement for the upcoming earnings (based on past same-quarter performance). It's best used on daily charts for stocks with reliable earnings data. Note that quarter inference is calendar-based and may not perfectly match fiscal calendars for all companies—it's an approximation.

Puell Multiple Variants [OperationHeadLessChicken]Overview
This script contains three different, but related indicators to visualise Bitcoin miner revenue.
The classical Puell Multiple : historically, it has been good at signaling Bitcoin cycle tops and bottoms, but due to the diminishing rewards miners get after each halving, it is not clear how you determine overvalued and undervalued territories on it. Here is how the other two modified versions come into play:
Halving-Corrected Puell Multiple : The idea is to multiply the miner revenue after each halving with a correction factor, so overvalued levels are made comparable by a horizontal line across cycles. After experimentation, this correction factor turned out to be around 1.63. This brings cycle tops close to each other, but we lose the ability to see undervalued territories as a horizontal region. The third variant aims to fix this:
Miner Revenue Relative Strength Index (Miner Revenue RSI) : It uses RSI to map miner revenue into the 0-100 range, making it easy to visualise over/undervalued territories. With correct parameter settings, it eliminates the diminishing nature of the original Puell Multiple, and shows both over- and undervalued revenues correctly.
Example usage
The goal is to determine cycle tops and bottoms. I recommend using it on high timeframes, like monthly or weekly . Lower than that, you will see a lot of noise, but it could still be used. Here I use monthly as the example.
The classical Puell Multiple is included for reference. It is calculated as Miner Revenue divided by the 365-day Moving Average of the Miner Revenue . As you can see in the picture below, it has been good at signaling tops at 1,3,5,7.
The problems:
- I have to switch the Puell Multiple to a logarithmic scale
- Still, I cannot use a horizontal oversold territory
- 5 didn't touch the trendline, despite being a cycle top
- 9 touched the trendline despite not being a cycle top
Halving-Corrected Puell Multiple (yellow): Multiplies the Puell Multiple by 1.63 (a number determined via experimentation) after each halving. In the picture below, you can see how the Classical (white) and Corrected (yellow) Puell Multiples compare:
Advantages:
- Now you can set a constant overvalued level (12.49 in my case)
- 1,3,7 are signaled correctly as cycle tops
- 9 is correctly not signaled as a cycle top
Caveats:
- Now you don't have bottom signals anymore
- 5 is still not signaled as cycle top
Let's see if we can further improve this:
Miner Revenue RSI (blue):
On the monthly, you can see that an RSI period of 6, an overvalued threshold of 90, and an undervalued threshold of 35 have given historically pretty good signals.
Advantages:
- Uses two simple and clear horizontal levels for undervalued and overvalued levels
- Signaling 1,3,5,7 correctly as cycle tops
- Correctly does not signal 9 as a cycle top
- Signaling 4,6,8 correctly as cycle bottoms
Caveats:
- Misses two as a cycle bottom, although it was a long time ago when the Bitcoin market was much less mature
- In the past, gave some early overvalued signals
Usage
Using the example above, you can apply these indicators to any timeframe you like and tweak their parameters to obtain signals for overvalued/undervalued BTC prices
You can show or hide any of the three indicators individually
Set overvalued/undervalued thresholds for each => the background will highlight in green (undervalued) or red (overvalued)
Set special parameters for the given indicators: correction factor for the Corrected Puell and RSI period for Revenue RSI
Show or hide halving events on the indicator panel
All parameters and colours are adjustable

Key Levels (PA, MAs, VWAPs, Volume Profile, rVWAPs)This indicator marks all kinds of key levels so that users can keep an overview of their specified levels in a convenient non chart cluttering way. It can highlight levels of confluence or display each level seperately.
The indicator includes markers for the following levels:
Price Action: Opens, Previous High/Low, Monday Range
Moving Averages: H4, D1 and W1 with customisable lengths
VWAPs: Developing and Previous VWAPs with their respective VAL/VAH (1 Standard Deviation)
Rolling VWAPs
Volume Profile: Developing and Previous VAL/VAH/POC
What makes this indicator different is its vast customisation options and big library of levels…
… users can choose to merge all levels that are aligned in a specified % threshold and additionally they can choose to color them the same color to highlight confluence levels.
… users have the choice between Full Label Markers or Abbreviations of those Labels.
… users have the choice of a few presets making level switching fast and convenient (Price Action, Volume Profile, VWAP, Volume or Custom).
… users can specify if they prefer to highlight Simple Moving Averages or Exponential Moving Averages. They have calculations available on three different timeframes and can change the lengths of each.
… users can color all levels the same with one click instead of having to manually change all of them.
… when users choose Volume Profile Levels they can either let the script auto calculate the row size making asset switching simple or they can manually input row size.
With the custom preset users can show and hide whichever levels they want.
(To have them the same every time you freshly load the indicator save your settings as default in the lower left corner of the settings tab).
Purpose
This indicator is designed to serve as a level visualisation tool that has the ability to highlight levels of confluence. It may assist in keeping an overview of where all levels are currently located but does not produce signals or trade recommendations.
Portfolio Strategy TesterThe Portfolio Strategy Tester is an institutional-grade backtesting framework that evaluates the performance of trend-following strategies on multi-asset portfolios. It enables users to construct custom portfolios of up to 30 assets and apply moving average crossover strategies across individual holdings. The model features a clear, color-coded table that provides a side-by-side comparison between the buy-and-hold portfolio and the portfolio using the risk management strategy, offering a comprehensive assessment of both approaches relative to the benchmark.
Portfolios are constructed by entering each ticker symbol in the menu, assigning its respective weight, and reviewing the total sum of individual weights displayed at the top left of the table. For strategy selection, users can choose between Exponential Moving Average (EMA), Simple Moving Average (SMA), Wilder’s Moving Average (RMA), Weighted Moving Average (WMA), Moving Average Convergence Divergence (MACD), and Volume-Weighted Moving Average (VWMA). Moving average lengths are defined in the menu and apply only to strategy-enabled assets.
To accurately replicate real-world portfolio conditions, users can choose between daily, weekly, monthly, or quarterly rebalancing frequencies and decide whether cash is held or redistributed. Daily rebalancing maintains constant portfolio weights, while longer intervals allow natural drift. When cash positions are not allowed, capital from bearish assets is automatically redistributed proportionally among bullish assets, ensuring the portfolio remains fully invested at all times. The table displays a comprehensive set of widely used institutional-grade performance metrics:
CAGR = Compounded annual growth rate of returns.
Volatility = Annualized standard deviation of returns.
Sharpe = CAGR per unit of annualized standard deviation.
Sortino = CAGR per unit of annualized downside deviation.
Calmar = CAGR relative to maximum drawdown.
Max DD = Largest peak-to-trough decline in value.
Beta (β) = Sensitivity of returns relative to benchmark returns.
Alpha (α) = Excess annualized risk-adjusted returns relative to benchmark.
Upside = Ratio of average return to benchmark return on up days.
Downside = Ratio of average return to benchmark return on down days.
Tracking = Annualized standard deviation of returns versus benchmark.
Turnover = Average sum of absolute changes in weights per year.
Cumulative returns are displayed on each label as the total percentage gain from the selected start date, with green indicating positive returns and red indicating negative returns. In the table, baseline metrics serve as the benchmark reference and are always gray. For portfolio metrics, green indicates outperformance relative to the baseline, while red indicates underperformance relative to the baseline. For strategy metrics, green indicates outperformance relative to both the baseline and the portfolio, red indicates underperformance relative to both, and gray indicates underperformance relative to either the baseline or portfolio. Metrics such as Volatility, Tracking Error, and Turnover ratio are always displayed in gray as they serve as descriptive measures.
In summary, the Portfolio Strategy Tester is a comprehensive backtesting tool designed to help investors evaluate different trend-following strategies on custom portfolios. It enables real-world simulation of both active and passive investment approaches and provides a full set of standard institutional-grade performance metrics to support data-driven comparisons. While results are based on historical performance, the model serves as a powerful portfolio management and research framework for developing, validating, and refining systematic investment strategies.

MA Oscillator Map [ChartPrime]⯁ OVERVIEW
The MA Oscillator Map transforms moving average deviations into an oscillator framework that highlights overextended price conditions. By normalizing the difference between price and a chosen moving average, the tool maps oscillations between -100 and +100 , with gradient coloring to emphasize bullish and bearish momentum. When the oscillator cools from extreme levels (-100/100), the indicator marks potential reversal points and extends short-term levels from those extremes. A compact side table and dynamic bar coloring make momentum context visible at a glance.
⯁ KEY FEATURES
Oscillator Mapping (±100 Scale):
Price deviation from the selected MA is normalized into a percentage scale, allowing consistent overbought/oversold readings across assets and timeframes.
// MA
MA = ma(close, maLengthInput, maTypeInput)
diff = src - MA
maxVal = ta.highest(math.abs(diff), 50)
osc = diff / maxVal * 100
Customizable MA Types:
Choose SMA, EMA, SMMA, WMA, or VWMA to fine-tune the smoothing method that powers the oscillator.
Extreme Signal Diamonds:
When the oscillator retreats from +100 or -100, the script plots diamonds to flag potential exhaustion and reversal zones.
Dynamic Levels from Extremes:
Upper and lower dotted lines extend from recent overextension points, projecting temporary barriers until broken by price.
Gradient Bar Coloring:
Candles and oscillator values adopt a bullish-to-bearish gradient, making shifts in momentum instantly visible on the chart.
Compact Momentum Map:
A table at the chart’s edge plots the oscillator position with a gradient scale and live percentage label for precise momentum tracking.
⯁ USAGE
Watch for diamonds after the oscillator exits ±100 — these mark potential exhaustion zones.
Use extended dotted levels as short-term reference lines; if broken, trend continuation is favored.
Combine gradient bar coloring with oscillator shifts for confirmation of momentum reversals.
Experiment with different MA types to adapt sensitivity for trending vs. ranging markets.
Use the side momentum table as a quick-read gauge of trend strength in percent terms.
⯁ CONCLUSION
The MA Oscillator Map reframes moving average deviations into a visual momentum tracker with extremes, reversal signals, and dynamic levels. By blending oscillator math with intuitive visuals like gradient candles, diamonds, and a live gauge, it helps traders spot overextension, exhaustion, and momentum shifts across any market.
SuperTrend MAAfter building SuperBands, I kept thinking about what happens at the midpoint between those two volatility-adaptive envelopes. The upper and lower bands are both trailing price based on ATR and EMA smoothing, but they're operating independently in opposite directions. Taking their average seemed like it might produce an interesting centerline that adapts to volatility in a way that regular moving averages don't. Turns out it does, and that's what this indicator is.
The core concept is straightforward. Instead of plotting the upper and lower SuperBands separately, this calculates both of them internally, averages their values, and then applies an additional smoothing pass with EMA to create a single centerline. That centerline sits roughly in the middle of where the bands would be, but because it's derived from ATR-offset trailing stops rather than direct price smoothing, it behaves differently than a standard moving average of the same length. During trending periods, the centerline tracks closer to price because one of the underlying bands is actively trailing while the other is dormant. During consolidation, both bands compress toward price and the centerline tends to oscillate more with shorter-term movements.
What's interesting is that this acts like a supertrend all by itself with directional behavior baked in. When one of the underlying supertrend waves dominates, meaning price is strongly trending in one direction and only one band is active, you get what feels like a "true" supertrend, whatever that means exactly. The centerline locks into trend-following mode and the color gradient reflects that commitment. You get bright bullish colors during sustained uptrends when the upper band is doing all the work, and strong bearish colors during downtrends when the lower band dominates. But when both bands are active and fighting for control, which happens during consolidation or choppy conditions, the centerline settles into more neutral tones that clearly signal you're in a ranging environment. The colors really do emphasize this behavior and make it visually obvious which regime you're in.
The smoothing parameter controls how aggressively the underlying SuperBand trails adapt to price, which indirectly affects how responsive the centerline is. Lower values make the bands tighter and more reactive, so the centerline follows price action more closely. Higher values create wider bands that only respond to sustained moves, which produces a smoother centerline that filters out more noise. The center smoothing parameter applies a second EMA pass specifically to the averaged midpoint, giving you independent control over how much additional lag you want on the final output versus the raw band average.
What makes this different from just slapping an EMA on price is that the underlying bands are already volatility-aware through their ATR calculations. When volatility spikes, the bands widen and the centerline adjusts its position relative to price based on where those bands settle. A traditional moving average would just smooth over the volatility spike without adjusting its distance from price. This approach incorporates volatility information into the centerline's positioning, which can help it stay relevant during regime changes where fixed-period moving averages tend to lag badly or whipsaw.
The color gradient adds a momentum overlay using the same angle-based calculation from SuperBands. The centerline's rate of change gets normalized by an RMS estimate of its historical movement range, converted to an angle through arctangent scaling, and then mapped to a color gradient. When the centerline is rising, it gradients from neutral toward your chosen bullish color, with brightness increasing as the rate of ascent steepens. When falling, it shifts toward the bearish color with intensity tied to the descent rate. This gives you an immediate visual sense of whether the centerline is accelerating, decelerating, or moving at a stable pace.
Configuration is simpler than SuperBands since you're only dealing with a single output line instead of separate bull and bear envelopes. The length parameter controls the underlying band behavior. ATR period and multiplier determine how much space the bands allocate around price before they trail. Center smoothing adds the extra EMA pass on the averaged midpoint. You can tune these independently to get different characteristics. A tight ATR multiplier with heavy center smoothing creates a smooth line that stays close to price. A wide multiplier with light center smoothing produces a line that swings more freely and adapts faster to directional changes.
From a practical standpoint, this works well as a trend filter or dynamic support and resistance reference. Price above the centerline with bullish coloring suggests a favorable environment for long positions. Price below with bearish coloring indicates the opposite. Crossovers can signal trend changes, though like any moving average system, you'll get whipsaws in choppy conditions. The advantage over traditional MAs is that the volatility adaptation tends to reduce false signals during transitional periods where volatility is expanding but direction hasn't fully committed.
The implementation reuses the entire SuperBands logic, which means all the smoothing and state management for the trailing stops is identical. The only addition is averaging the two band outputs and applying the final EMA pass. The color calculation follows the same RMS-normalized angle approach but applies it to the centerline's delta rather than the individual band deltas. This keeps the coloring consistent with how SuperBands handles momentum visualization while adapting it to a single line instead of dual envelopes.
What this really highlights is that you can derive moving averages from mechanisms other than direct price smoothing. By building the centerline from volatility-adjusted trailing stops, you get adaptive behavior that responds to both price movement and volatility regime without needing separate inputs or complex multi-stage calculations. Whether that adaptation provides a meaningful edge depends on your strategy and market, but it's a fundamentally different approach than the typical fixed-period or adaptive MAs that adjust length based on volatility or momentum indicators.
ADX MA Filter for Choppy MarketsA clear way to see expanding markets and identify contracting markets or chop
N Order EMAThe exponential moving average is one of the most fundamental tools in technical analysis, but its implementation is almost always locked to a single mathematical approach. I've always wanted to extend the EMA into an n-order filter, and after some time working through the digital signal processing mathematics, I finally managed to do it. This indicator takes the familiar EMA concept and opens it up to four different discretization methods, each representing a valid way to transform a continuous-time exponential smoother into a discrete-time recursive filter. On top of that, it includes adjustable filter order, which fundamentally changes the frequency response characteristics in ways that simply changing the period length cannot achieve.
The four discretization styles are impulse-matched, all-pole, matched z-transform, and bilinear (Tustin). The all-pole version is exactly like stacking multiple EMAs together but implemented in a single function with proper coefficient calculation. It uses a canonical form where you get one gain coefficient and the rest are zeros, with the feedback coefficients derived from the binomial expansion of the pole polynomial. The other three methods are attempts at making generalizations of the EMA in different ways. Impulse-matched creates the filter by matching the discrete-time impulse response to what the continuous EMA would produce. Matched z-transform directly maps the continuous poles to the z-domain using the exponential relationship. Bilinear uses the Tustin transformation with frequency prewarping to ensure the cutoff frequency is preserved despite the inherent warping of the mapping.
Honestly, they're all mostly the same in practice, which is exactly what you'd expect since they're all valid discretizations of the same underlying filter. The differences show up in subtle ways during volatile market conditions or in the exact phase characteristics, but for most trading applications the outputs will track each other closely. That said, the bilinear version works particularly well at low periods like 2, where other methods can sometimes produce numerical artifacts. I personally like the z-match for its clean frequency-domain properties, but the real point here is demonstrating that you can tackle the same problem from multiple mathematical angles and end up with slightly different but equally valid implementations.
The order parameter is where things get interesting. A first-order EMA is the standard single-pole recursive filter everyone knows. When you move to second-order, you're essentially cascading two filter sections, which steepens the roll-off in the frequency domain and changes how the filter responds to sudden price movements. Higher orders continue this progression. The all-pole style makes this particularly clear since it's literally stacking EMA operations, but all four discretization methods support arbitrary order. This gives you control over the aggressiveness of the smoothing that goes beyond just adjusting the period length.
On top of the core EMA calculation, I've included all the standard variants that people use for reducing lag. DEMA applies the EMA twice and combines the results to get faster response. TEMA takes it further with three applications. HEMA uses a Hull-style calculation with fractional periods, applying the EMA to the difference between a half-period EMA and a full-period EMA, then smoothing that result with the square root of the period. These are all implemented using whichever discretization method you select, so you're not mixing different mathematical approaches. Everything stays consistent within the chosen framework.
The practical upside of this indicator is flexibility for people building trading systems. If you need a moving average with specific frequency response characteristics, you can tune the order parameter instead of hunting for the right period length. If you want to test whether different discretization methods affect your strategy's performance, you can swap between them without changing any other code. For most users, the impulse-matched style at order 1 will behave almost identically to a standard EMA, which gives you a familiar baseline to work from. From there you can experiment with higher orders or different styles to see if they provide any edge in your particular market or timeframe.
What this really highlights is that even something as seemingly simple as an exponential moving average involves mathematical choices that usually stay hidden. The standard EMA formula you see in textbooks is already a discretized version of a continuous exponential decay, and there are multiple valid ways to perform that discretization. By exposing these options, this indicator lets you explore a parameter space that most traders never even know exists. Whether that exploration leads to better trading results is an empirical question that depends on your strategy and market, but at minimum it's a useful reminder that the tools we take for granted are built on arbitrary but reasonable mathematical decisions.

Mythical EMAs + Dynamic VWAP BandThis indicator titled "Mythical EMAs + Dynamic VWAP Band." It overlays several volatility-adjusted Exponential Moving Averages (EMAs) on the chart, along with a Volume Weighted Average Price (VWAP) line and a dynamic band around it.
Additionally, it uses background coloring (clouds) to visualize bullish or bearish trends, with intensity modulated by the price's position relative to the VWAP.
The EMAs are themed with mythical names (e.g., Hermes for the 9-period EMA), but this is just stylistic flavoring and doesn't affect functionality.
I'll break it down section by section, explaining what each part does, how it works, and its purpose in the context of technical analysis. This indicator is designed for traders to identify trends, momentum, and price fairness relative to volume-weighted averages, with volatility adjustments to make the EMAs more responsive in volatile markets.
### 1. **Volatility Calculation (ATR)**
```pine
atrLength = 14
volatility = ta.atr(atrLength)
```
- **What it does**: Calculates the Average True Range (ATR) over 14 periods (a common default). ATR measures market volatility by averaging the true range (the greatest of: high-low, |high-previous close|, |low-previous close|).
- **Purpose**: This volatility value is used later to dynamically adjust the EMAs, making them more sensitive in high-volatility conditions (e.g., during market swings) and smoother in low-volatility periods. It helps the indicator adapt to changing market environments rather than using static EMAs.
### 2. **Custom Mythical EMA Function**
```pine
mythical_ema(src, length, base_alpha, vol_factor) =>
alpha = (2 / (length + 1)) * base_alpha * (1 + vol_factor * (volatility / src))
ema = 0.0
ema := na(ema ) ? src : alpha * src + (1 - alpha) * ema
ema
```
- **What it does**: Defines a custom function to compute a modified EMA.
- It starts with the standard EMA smoothing factor formula: `2 / (length + 1)`.
- Multiplies it by a `base_alpha` (a user-defined multiplier to tweak responsiveness).
- Adjusts further for volatility: Adds a term `(1 + vol_factor * (volatility / src))`, where `vol_factor` scales the impact, and `volatility / src` normalizes ATR relative to the source price (making it scale-invariant).
- The EMA is then calculated recursively: If the previous EMA is NA (e.g., at the start), it uses the current source value; otherwise, it weights the current source by `alpha` and the prior EMA by `(1 - alpha)`.
- **Purpose**: This creates "adaptive" EMAs that react faster in volatile markets (higher alpha when volatility is high relative to price) without overreacting in calm periods. It's an enhancement over standard EMAs, which use fixed alphas and can lag in choppy conditions. The mythical theme is just naming—functionally, it's a volatility-weighted EMA.
### 3. **Calculating the EMAs**
```pine
ema9 = mythical_ema(close, 9, 1.2, 0.5) // Hermes - quick & nimble
ema20 = mythical_ema(close, 20, 1.0, 0.3) // Apollo - short-term foresight
ema50 = mythical_ema(close, 50, 0.9, 0.2) // Athena - wise strategist
ema100 = mythical_ema(close, 100, 0.8, 0.1) // Zeus - powerful oversight
ema200 = mythical_ema(close, 200, 0.7, 0.05) // Kronos - long-term patience
```
- **What it does**: Applies the custom EMA function to the close price with varying lengths (9, 20, 50, 100, 200 periods), base alphas (decreasing from 1.2 to 0.7 for longer periods to make shorter ones more responsive), and volatility factors (decreasing from 0.5 to 0.05 to reduce volatility influence on longer-term EMAs).
- **Purpose**: These form a multi-timeframe EMA ribbon:
- Shorter EMAs (e.g., 9 and 20) capture short-term momentum.
- Longer ones (e.g., 200) show long-term trends.
- Crossovers (e.g., short EMA crossing above long EMA) can signal buy/sell opportunities. The volatility adjustment makes them "mythical" by adding dynamism, potentially improving signal quality in real markets.
### 4. **VWAP Calculation**
```pine
vwap_val = ta.vwap(close) // VWAP based on close price
```
- **What it does**: Computes the Volume Weighted Average Price (VWAP) using the built-in `ta.vwap` function, anchored to the close price. VWAP is the average price weighted by volume over the session (resets daily by default in Pine Script).
- **Purpose**: VWAP acts as a benchmark for "fair value." Prices above VWAP suggest bullishness (buyers in control), below indicate bearishness (sellers dominant). It's commonly used by institutional traders to assess entry/exit points.
### 5. **Plotting EMAs and VWAP**
```pine
plot(ema9, color=color.fuchsia, title='EMA 9 (Hermes)')
plot(ema20, color=color.red, title='EMA 20 (Apollo)')
plot(ema50, color=color.orange, title='EMA 50 (Athena)')
plot(ema100, color=color.aqua, title='EMA 100 (Zeus)')
plot(ema200, color=color.blue, title='EMA 200 (Kronos)')
plot(vwap_val, color=color.yellow, linewidth=2, title='VWAP')
```
- **What it does**: Overlays the EMAs and VWAP on the chart with distinct colors and titles for easy identification in TradingView's legend.
- **Purpose**: Visualizes the EMA ribbon and VWAP line. Traders can watch for EMA alignments (e.g., all sloping up for uptrend) or price interactions with VWAP.
### 6. **Dynamic VWAP Band**
```pine
band_pct = 0.005
vwap_upper = vwap_val * (1 + band_pct)
vwap_lower = vwap_val * (1 - band_pct)
p1 = plot(vwap_upper, color=color.new(color.yellow, 0), title="VWAP Upper Band")
p2 = plot(vwap_lower, color=color.new(color.yellow, 0), title="VWAP Lower Band")
fill_color = close >= vwap_val ? color.new(color.green, 80) : color.new(color.red, 80)
fill(p1, p2, color=fill_color, title="Dynamic VWAP Band")
```
- **What it does**: Creates a band ±0.5% around the VWAP.
- Plots the upper/lower bands with full transparency (color opacity 0, so lines are invisible).
- Fills the area between them dynamically: Semi-transparent green (opacity 80) if close ≥ VWAP (bullish bias), red if below (bearish bias).
- **Purpose**: Highlights deviations from VWAP visually. The color change provides an at-a-glance sentiment indicator—green for "above fair value" (potential strength), red for "below" (potential weakness). The narrow band (0.5%) focuses on short-term fairness, and the fill makes it easier to spot than just the line.
### 7. **Trend Clouds with VWAP Interaction**
```pine
bullish = ema9 > ema20 and ema20 > ema50
bearish = ema9 < ema20 and ema20 < ema50
bullish_above_vwap = bullish and close > vwap_val
bullish_below_vwap = bullish and close <= vwap_val
bearish_below_vwap = bearish and close < vwap_val
bearish_above_vwap = bearish and close >= vwap_val
bgcolor(bullish_above_vwap ? color.new(color.green, 50) : na, title="Bullish Above VWAP")

- **What it does**: Defines trend conditions based on EMA alignments:
- Bullish: Shorter EMAs stacked above longer ones (9 > 20 > 50, indicating upward momentum).
- Bearish: The opposite (downward momentum).
- Sub-conditions combine with VWAP: E.g., bullish_above_vwap is true only if bullish and price > VWAP.
- Applies background colors (bgcolor) to the entire chart pane:
- Strong bullish (above VWAP): Green with opacity 50 (less transparent, more intense).
- Weak bullish (below VWAP): Green with opacity 80 (more transparent, less intense).
- Strong bearish (below VWAP): Red with opacity 50.
- Weak bearish (above VWAP): Red with opacity 80.
- If no condition matches, no color (na).
- **Purpose**: Creates "clouds" for trend visualization, enhanced by VWAP context. This helps traders confirm trends—e.g., a strong bullish cloud (darker green) suggests a high-conviction uptrend when price is above VWAP. The varying opacity differentiates signal strength: Darker for aligned conditions (trend + VWAP agreement), lighter for misaligned (potential weakening or reversal).
### Overall Indicator Usage and Limitations
- **How to use it**: Add this to a TradingView chart (e.g., stocks, crypto, forex). Look for EMA crossovers, price bouncing off EMAs/VWAP, or cloud color changes as signals. Bullish clouds with price above VWAP might signal buys; bearish below for sells.
- **Strengths**: Combines momentum (EMAs), volume (VWAP), and volatility adaptation for a multi-layered view. Dynamic colors make it intuitive.
- **Limitations**:
- EMAs lag in ranging markets; volatility adjustment helps but doesn't eliminate whipsaws.
- VWAP resets daily (standard behavior), so it's best for intraday/session trading.
- No alerts or inputs for customization (e.g., changeable lengths)—it's hardcoded.
- Performance depends on the asset/timeframe; backtest before using.
