Dynamic Stop Loss Optimizer [BackQuant]Dynamic Stop Loss Optimizer
Overview
Stop placement decides expectancy. This tool gives you three professional-grade, adaptive stop engines, ATR, Volatility, and Hybrid. So your exits scale with current conditions instead of guessing fixed ticks. It trails intelligently, redraws as the market evolves, and annotates the chart with clean labels/lines and a compact stats table. Pick the engine that fits the trade, or switch on the fly.
What it does
Calculates three adaptive stops in real time (ATR-based, Volatility-based, and Hybrid) and keeps them trailed as price makes progress.
Shows exactly where your risk lives with on-chart levels, color-coded markers (long/short), and precise “Risk %” labels at the current bar.
Surfaces context you actually use - current ATR, daily volatility, selected method, and the live stop level—in a tidy, movable table.
Fires alerts on stop hits so you can automate exits or journal outcomes without staring at the screen.
Why it matters
Adaptive risk control: Stops expand in fast tape and tighten in quiet tape. You’re not punished for volatility; you’re aligned with it.
Consistency across assets: The same playbook works whether you’re trading indexes, FX, crypto, or equities, because the engine normalizes to each symbol’s behavior.
Cleaner decision-making: One chart shows your entry idea and its invalidation in the same breath. If price trespasses, you know it instantly.
The three methods (choose your engine)
1) ATR Based “Structure-aware” distance
This classic approach keys off Average True Range to set a stop just beyond typical bar-to-bar excursion. It adapts smoothly to changing ranges and respects swing structure.
Use when: you want a steady, intuitive buffer that tracks trend legs without hugging price.
See it in action:
2) Volatility Based “Behavior-aware” distance
This engine derives stop distance from current return volatility (annualized, then scaled back down to the session). It reacts to regime shifts quickly and normalizes risk across symbols with very different prices.
Use when: you want the stop to breathe with realized volatility and respond faster to heat-ups/cool-downs.
See it in action:
3) Hybrid “Best of both worlds”
The Hybrid blends the ATR and Volatility distances into one consensus level, then trails it intelligently. You get the structural common sense of ATR and the regime sensitivity of Vol.
Use when: you want robust, all-weather behavior without micromanaging inputs.
See it in action:
How it trails
Longs: The stop ratchets up with favorable movement and holds its ground on shallow pullbacks. If price closes back into the risk zone, the level refreshes to the newest valid distance.
Shorts: Mirror logic ratchets down with trend, resists noise, and refreshes if price reclaims the zone.
Hybrid trailing: Uses the blended distance and the same “no give-backs” principle to keep gains protected as structure builds.
Reading the chart
Markers: Circles = ATR stops, Crosses = Vol stops, Diamonds = Hybrid. Colors indicate long (red level under price) vs short (green level above price).
Lines: The latest active stop is extended with a dashed line so you can see it at a glance.
Labels: “Long SL / Short SL” shows the exact price and current risk % from the last close no math required.
Table: ATR value, Daily Vol %, your chosen Method, the Current SL, and Risk %—all in one compact block that you can pin top-left/right/center.
Quick workflow
Define the idea: Long or Short, and which engine fits the tape (ATR, Vol, or Hybrid).
Place and trail: Let the optimizer print the level; trail automatically as the move develops.
Manage outcomes: If the line is tagged, you’re out clean. If it holds, you’ve contained heat while giving the trade room to work.
Inputs you’ll actually touch
Calculation Settings
ATR Length / Multiplier: Controls the “structural” cushion.
Volatility Length / Multiplier: Controls the “behavioral” cushion.
Trading Days: 252 or 365 to keep the volatility math aligned with the asset’s trading calendar.
Stop Loss Method
ATR Based | Volatility Based | Hybrid : Switch engines instantly to fit the trade.
Position Type
Long | Short | Both : Show only what you need for the current strategy.
Visual Settings
Show ATR / Vol / Hybrid Stops: Toggle families on/off.
Show Labels: Print price + Risk % at the live stop.
Table Position: Park the metrics where you like.
Coloring
Long/Short/Hybrid colors: Set a palette that matches your theme and stands out on your background.
Practical patterns to watch
Trend-pullback continuation: The stop ratchets behind higher lows (long) or lower highs (short). If price tests the level and rejects, that’s your risk-defined continuation cue.
Break-and-run: After a clean break, the Hybrid will usually sit slightly wider than pure Vol, use it to avoid getting shaken on the first retest.
Range compression: When the ATR and Vol distances converge, the table will show small Risk %. That’s your green light to size up with the same dollar risk, or keep it conservative if you expect expansion.
Alerts
Long Stop Loss Hit : Notifies when price crosses below the live long stop.
Short Stop Loss Hit : Notifies when price crosses above the live short stop.
Why this feels “set-and-serious”
You get a single look that answers three questions in real time: “Where’s my line in the sand?”, “How much heat am I taking right now?”, and “Is this distance appropriate for current conditions?” With ATR, Vol, and Hybrid in one tool, you can run the exact same playbook across symbols and regimes while keeping your chart clean and your risk explicit.

Bollinger Adaptive Trend Navigator [QuantAlgo]🟢 Overview
The Bollinger Adaptive Trend Navigator synthesizes volatility channel analysis with variable smoothing mechanics to generate trend identification signals. It uses price positioning within Bollinger Band structures to modify moving average responsiveness, while incorporating ATR calculations to establish trend line boundaries that constrain movement during volatile periods. The adaptive nature makes this indicator particularly valuable for traders and investors working across various asset classes including stocks, forex, commodities, and cryptocurrencies, with effectiveness spanning multiple timeframes from intraday scalping to longer-term position analysis.
🟢 How It Works
The core mechanism calculates price position within Bollinger Bands and uses this positioning to create an adaptive smoothing factor:
bbPosition = bbUpper != bbLower ? (source - bbLower) / (bbUpper - bbLower) : 0.5
adaptiveFactor = (bbPosition - 0.5) * 2 * adaptiveMultiplier * bandWidthRatio
alpha = math.max(0.01, math.min(0.5, 2.0 / (bbPeriod + 1) * (1 + math.abs(adaptiveFactor))))
This adaptive coefficient drives an exponential moving average that responds more aggressively when price approaches Bollinger Band extremes:
var float adaptiveTrend = source
adaptiveTrend := alpha * source + (1 - alpha) * nz(adaptiveTrend , source)
finalTrend = 0.7 * adaptiveTrend + 0.3 * smoothedCenter
ATR-based volatility boundaries constrain the final trend line to prevent excessive movement during volatile periods:
volatility = ta.atr(volatilityPeriod)
upperBound = bollingerTrendValue + (volatility * volatilityMultiplier)
lowerBound = bollingerTrendValue - (volatility * volatilityMultiplier)
The trend line direction determines bullish or bearish states through simple slope comparison, with the final output displaying color-coded signals based on the synthesis of Bollinger positioning, adaptive smoothing, and volatility constraints (green = long/buy, red = short/sell).
🟢 Signal Interpretation
Rising Trend Line (Green): Indicates upward direction based on Bollinger positioning and adaptive smoothing = Potential long/buy opportunity
Falling Trend Line (Red): Indicates downward direction based on Bollinger positioning and adaptive smoothing = Potential short/sell opportunity
Built-in Alert System: Automated notifications trigger when bullish or bearish states change, allowing you to act on significant development without constantly monitoring the charts
Candle Coloring: Optional feature applies trend colors to price bars for visual consistency
Configuration Presets: Three parameter sets available - Default (standard settings), Scalping (faster response), and Swing Trading (slower response)
Price Action Trader [BackQuant]Price Action Trader
Introduction
Price Action Trader is an all-in-one, chart-side workflow for reading trend, timing impulses, and mapping high-probability zones the way discretionary traders actually trade. It blends an ensemble trend engine with clean price-action building blocks—Market Structure (BOS/MSB), Fair Value Gaps, Order Blocks, and Volumetric Support/Resistance—so you can form a bias, find confluence, and execute with context.
What is it
A modular “price-action stack” that:
Paints trend bias and impulse shifts on the chart (optional candle coloring).
Auto-annotates internal & swing structure (BOS / MSB).
Finds FVGs on your chosen timeframe and draws them cleanly.
Detects Order Blocks (with optional FVG confirmation).
Builds volumetric S/R levels that adapt to liquidity.
Emits alerts for key events (new levels, touches, breaks, OB creation/touch).
Everything is configurable—keep it minimal (trend + a few zones) or run the full toolkit.
What’s it used for
Bias first, trade second: establish direction/conviction, then execute where structure, gaps, blocks, and volume agree.
Timing: impulse flips and level touches provide actionable triggers.
Risk placement: OB edges, FVG midlines, and volumetric bands give logical stop/target references.
Review & journaling: optional session shading and labeled structures make post-trade notes simple.
Composite Trend Model
A lightweight signal line (default: 30-period) that turns green when the composite regime is bullish and red when bearish. Under the hood, multiple cues (adaptive momentum, de-noised oscillation, volatility-aware filters) are blended into a single directional score; when thresholds flip, the line recolors and optional Long/Short dots appear.
How to use
Treat the line as your bias rail : favor longs while green, shorts while red.
Flat/rapid flips = stand down or reduce size.
Prefer clean charts? Keep only the line and (optionally) trend-painted candles.
Inputs to know
Show Trend Signal Line / Width.
Paint Candles by Trend.
Long/Bearish color controls.
Impulse Model
Highlights short-term pressure shifts with optional impulse candle coloring and ▲/▼ markers. Great for entries in the prevailing trend and for early warnings when impulses fire against bias.
How to use
Up-bias: look for the next impulse-up near structure/FVG/OB or volumetric support.
Down-bias: mirror the logic.
Frequent counter-impulses → expect chop or regime change.
Inputs to know
Show Impulse Signals.
Paint Impulse Candles.
Market Structure
Automatic Internal (tight lookback) and Swing (wider lookback) structure with BOS and MSB (CHoCH) labels. You decide what to show—All, BOS only, MSB only—independently for internal vs swing.
How to use
Use Swing labels for the primary map; Internal for entry refinement.
After a bullish MSB , seek the first HL back into support/FVG/OB.
After a bearish BOS , favor LH fades into resistance/FVG/OB.
Inputs to know
Swing Lookback / Internal Lookback.
Swing/Internal Structure: All | BOS | MSB | None .
Separate bull/bear color controls for both layers.
Fair Value Gaps
Detects bullish/bearish FVGs on the current or higher TF, draws boxes, and can extend them forward. Midlines provide quick visual targeting.
How to use
In-trend fills: in an up-bias, tags of bullish FVGs often offer high-quality continuation entries, especially with structure/OB confluence.
Failed fills: rejections at the midline can signal emerging strength/weakness.
Inputs to know
Show FVG / Show Last N / Extend.
Timeframe (blank = chart TF; set higher TF for macro FVGs).
Bull/Bear colors (tune opacity to taste).
Volumetric Support and Resistance
Builds adaptive S/R from price interaction + relative volume over a rolling lookback. Levels store touch counts; you can show volume stats on labels or inside boxes. Transparency and border thickness can scale with volume so stronger levels are visually louder. Broken levels can auto-remove.
How to use
Use as confluence with structure, OBs, and FVGs. A long at volumetric support + Bull OB + FVG midline is qualitatively different from a naked level.
If a level breaks on strong volume, stop fading—flip expectations or wait for a clean retest.
Inputs to know
Detection Sensitivity / Volume Multiplier.
Analysis Period / Max Levels / Min Distance (%).
Remove Broken / Extend Right / Show Volume Info / Text Inside.
Support/Resistance colors (+ high-vol variants).
Alerts
New Support/Resistance Level Created.
Level Touch.
Level Break.
Order Blocks
Detects bullish/bearish OBs using configurable fractals (3- or 5-bar) with a break confirmation (by Close or High/Low). Optional FVG proximity filter, right-extension, and auto-delete when filled.
How to use
Bullish bias: stalk pullbacks into fresh Bull OBs aligned with a bullish FVG or volumetric support.
If price fills an opposing OB and fails to continue, reassess bias—context may be shifting.
Inputs to know
Fractal Type & Break Method (Close / HL).
Filter with FVG + Max FVG Distance.
Extend Blocks / Delete When Filled / Show Labels.
Alerts
New Order Block Created.
Order Block Touch.
Final Notes
Suggested workflow
Start with Composite Trend (bias).
Mark Swing structure in that direction.
Wait for an Impulse in-direction near an OB / FVG / Volumetric level.
Risk = nearest opposite level or OB edge; targets = FVG midlines / next S/R.
Timeframes & assets
Defaults suit liquid intraday and 1–4H swing.
Slower markets → lengthen lookbacks, lower sensitivity.
Very noisy crypto → keep trend visible, trim drawings (e.g., MSB only, last 3–5 FVGs, 8–12 volume levels).
Keep it readable
Turn off modules you don’t need today—fewer, higher-quality signals beat clutter.
About this release
Internal scoring, smoothing, and detection logic are proprietary. Behavior is controlled via inputs described above.
Trade with a plan, test your settings, and let confluence do the heavy lifting.
Sine Weighted Trend Navigator [QuantAlgo]🟢 Overview
The Sine Weighted Trend Navigator utilizes trigonometric mathematics to create a trend-following system that adapts to various market volatility. Unlike traditional moving averages that apply uniform weights, this indicator employs sine wave calculations to distribute weights across historical price data, creating a more responsive yet smooth trend measurement. Combined with volatility-adjusted boundaries, it produces actionable directional signals for traders and investors across various market conditions and asset classes.
🟢 How It Works
At its core, the indicator applies sine wave mathematics to weight historical prices. The system generates angular values across the lookback period and transforms them through sine calculations, creating a weight distribution pattern that naturally emphasizes recent price action while preserving smoothness. The phase shift feature allows rotation of this weighting pattern, enabling adjustment of the indicator's responsiveness to different market conditions.
Surrounding this sine-weighted calculation, the system establishes volatility-responsive boundaries through market volatility analysis. These boundaries expand and contract based on current market conditions, creating a dynamic framework that helps distinguish meaningful trend movements from random price fluctuations.
The trend determination logic compares the sine-weighted value against these adaptive boundaries. When the weighted value exceeds the upper boundary, it signals upward momentum. When it drops below the lower boundary, it indicates downward pressure. This comparison drives the color transitions of the main trend line, shifting between bullish (green) and bearish (red) states to provide clear directional guidance on price charts.
🟢 How to Use
Green/Bullish Trend Line: Rising momentum indicating optimal conditions for long positions (buy)
Red/Bearish Trend Line: Declining momentum signaling favorable timing for short positions (sell)
Steepening Green Line: Accelerating bullish momentum with increasing sine-weighted values indicating strengthening upward pressure and high-probability trend continuation
Steepening Red Line: Intensifying bearish momentum with declining sine-weighted calculations suggesting persistent downward pressure and optimal shorting opportunities
Flattening Trend Lines: Gradual reduction in directional momentum regardless of color may indicate approaching consolidation or trend exhaustion requiring position management review
🟢 Pro Tips for Trading and Investing
→ Preset Strategy Selection: Utilize the built-in presets strategically - Scalping preset for ultra-responsive 1-15 minute charts, Default preset for balanced general trading, and Swing Trading preset for 1-4 hour charts and multi-day positions.
→ Phase Shift Optimization: Fine-tune the phase shift parameter based on market bias - use positive values (0.1-0.5) in trending bull markets to enhance uptrend sensitivity, negative values (-0.1 to -0.5) in bear markets for improved downtrend detection, and zero for balanced neutral market conditions.
→ Multiplier Calibration: Adjust the multiplier according to market volatility and trading style. Use lower values (0.5-1.0) for tight, responsive signals in stable markets, higher values (2.0-3.0) during earnings seasons or high-volatility periods to filter noise and reduce whipsaws.
→ Sine Period Adaptation: Customize the sine weighted period based on your trading timeframe and market conditions. Use 5-14 for day trading to capture short-term momentum shifts, 14-25 for swing trading to balance responsiveness with reliability, and 25-50 for position trading to maintain long-term trend clarity.
→ Multi-Timeframe Sine Validation: Apply the indicator across multiple timeframes simultaneously, using higher timeframes (4H/Daily) for overall trend bias and lower timeframes (15m/1H) for entry timing, ensuring sine-weighted calculations align across different time horizons.
→ Alert-Driven Systematic Execution: Leverage the built-in trend change alerts to eliminate emotional decision-making and capture every mathematically-confirmed trend transition, particularly valuable for traders managing multiple instruments or those unable to monitor charts continuously.
→ Risk Management: Increase position sizes during strong directional sine-weighted momentum while reducing exposure during frequent color changes that indicate mathematical uncertainty or ranging market conditions lacking clear directional bias.
RSI Trend Navigator [QuantAlgo]🟢 Overview
The RSI Trend Navigator integrates RSI momentum calculations with adaptive exponential moving averages and ATR-based volatility bands to generate trend-following signals. The indicator applies variable smoothing coefficients based on RSI readings and incorporates normalized momentum adjustments to position a trend line that responds to both price action and underlying momentum conditions.
🟢 How It Works
The indicator begins by calculating and smoothing the RSI to reduce short-term fluctuations while preserving momentum information:
rsiValue = ta.rsi(source, rsiPeriod)
smoothedRSI = ta.ema(rsiValue, rsiSmoothing)
normalizedRSI = (smoothedRSI - 50) / 50
It then creates an adaptive smoothing coefficient that varies based on RSI positioning relative to the midpoint:
adaptiveAlpha = smoothedRSI > 50 ? 2.0 / (trendPeriod * 0.5 + 1) : 2.0 / (trendPeriod * 1.5 + 1)
This coefficient drives an adaptive trend calculation that responds more quickly when RSI indicates bullish momentum and more slowly during bearish conditions:
var float adaptiveTrend = source
adaptiveTrend := adaptiveAlpha * source + (1 - adaptiveAlpha) * nz(adaptiveTrend , source)
The normalized RSI values are converted into price-based adjustments using ATR for volatility scaling:
rsiAdjustment = normalizedRSI * ta.atr(14) * sensitivity
rsiTrendValue = adaptiveTrend + rsiAdjustment
ATR-based bands are constructed around this RSI-adjusted trend value to create dynamic boundaries that constrain trend line positioning:
atr = ta.atr(atrPeriod)
deviation = atr * atrMultiplier
upperBound = rsiTrendValue + deviation
lowerBound = rsiTrendValue - deviation
The trend line positioning uses these band constraints to determine its final value:
if upperBound < trendLine
trendLine := upperBound
if lowerBound > trendLine
trendLine := lowerBound
Signal generation occurs through directional comparison of the trend line against its previous value to establish bullish and bearish states:
trendUp = trendLine > trendLine
trendDown = trendLine < trendLine
if trendUp
isBullish := true
isBearish := false
else if trendDown
isBullish := false
isBearish := true
The final output colors the trend line green during bullish states and red during bearish states, creating visual buy/long and sell/short opportunity signals based on the combined RSI momentum and volatility-adjusted trend positioning.
🟢 Signal Interpretation
Rising Trend Line (Green): Indicates upward momentum where RSI influence and adaptive smoothing favor continued price advancement = Potential buy/long positions
Declining Trend Line (Red): Indicates downward momentum where RSI influence and adaptive smoothing favor continued price decline = Potential sell/short positions
Flattening Trend Lines: Occur when momentum weakens and the trend line slope approaches neutral, suggesting potential consolidation before the next move
Built-in Alert System: Automated notifications trigger when bullish or bearish states change, sending "RSI Trend Bullish Signal" or "RSI Trend Bearish Signal" messages for timely entry/exit
Color Bar Candles Option: Optional candle coloring feature that applies the same green/red trend colors to price bars, providing additional visual confirmation of the current trend direction
Key Levels: Daily, Weekly, Monthly [BackQuant]Key Levels: Daily, Weekly, Monthly
Map the market’s “memory” in one glance—yesterday’s range, this week’s chosen day high/low, and D/W/M opens—then auto-clean levels once they break.
What it does
This tool plots three families of high-signal reference lines and keeps them tidy as price evolves:
Chosen Day High/Low (per week) — Pick a weekday (e.g., Monday). For each past week, the script records that day’s session high and low and projects them forward for a configurable number of bars. These act like “memory levels” that price often revisits.
Daily / Weekly / Monthly Opens — Plots the opening price of each new day, week, and month with separate styling. These opens frequently behave like magnets/flip lines intraday and anchors for regime on higher timeframes.
Auto-pruning — When price breaks a stored level, the script can automatically remove it to reduce clutter and refocus you on still-active lines. See: (broken levels removed).
Why these levels matter
Liquidity pockets — Prior day’s high/low and the daily open concentrate stops and pending orders. Mapping them quickly reveals likely sweep or fade zones. Example: previous day highs + daily open highlighting liquidity:
Context & regime — Monthly opens frame macro bias; trading above a rising cluster of monthly opens vs. below gives a clean top-down read. Example: monthly-only “macro outlook” view:
Cleaner charts — Auto-remove broken lines so you focus on what still matters right now.
What it plots (at a glance)
Past Chosen Day High/Low for up to N prior weeks (your choice), extended right.
Current Daily Open , Weekly Open , and Monthly Open , each with its own color, label, and forward extension.
Optional short labels (e.g., “Mon High”) or full labels (with week/month info).
How breaks are detected & cleaned
You control both the evidence and the timing of a “break”:
Break uses — Choose Close (more conservative) or Wick (more sensitive).
Inclusive? — If enabled, equality counts (≥ high or ≤ low). If disabled, you need a strict cross.
Allow intraday breaks? — If on, a level can break during the tracked day; if off, the script only counts breaks after the session completes.
Remove Broken Levels — When a break is confirmed, the line/label is deleted automatically. (See the demo: )
Quick start
Pick a Day of Week to Track (e.g., Monday).
Set how many weeks back to show (e.g., 8–10).
Choose how far to extend each family (bars to the right for chosen-day H/L and D/W/M opens).
Decide if a break uses Close or Wick , and whether equality counts.
Toggle Remove Broken Levels to keep the chart clean automatically.
Tips by use-case
Intraday bias — Watch the Daily Open as a magnet/flip. If price gaps above and holds, pullbacks to the daily open often decide direction. Pair with last day’s high/low for sweep→reversal or true breakout cues. See:
Weekly structure — Track the week’s chosen day (e.g., Monday) high/low across prior weeks. If price stalls near a cluster of old “Monday Highs,” look for sweep/reject patterns or continuation on reclaim.
Macro regime — Hide daily/weekly lines and keep only Monthly Opens to read bigger cycles at a glance (BTC/crypto especially). Example:
Customization
Use wicks or bodies for highs/lows (wicks capture extremes; bodies are stricter).
Line style & thickness — solid/dashed/dotted, width 1–5, plus global transparency.
Labels — Abbreviated (“Mon High”, “D Open”) or full (month/week/day info).
Color scheme — Separate colors for highs, lows, and each of D/W/M opens.
Capacity controls — Set how many daily/weekly/monthly opens and how many weeks of chosen-day H/L to keep visible.
What’s under the hood
On your selected weekday, the script records that session’s true high and true low (using wicks or body-based extremes—your choice), then projects a horizontal line forward for the next bars.
At each new day/week/month , it records the opening price and projects that line forward as well.
Each bar, the script checks your “break” rules; once broken, lines/labels are removed if auto-cleaning is on.
Everything updates in real time; past levels don’t repaint after the session finishes.
Recommended presets
Day trading — Weeks back: 6–10; extend D/W opens: 50–100 bars; Break uses: Close ; Inclusive: off; Auto-remove: on.
Swing — Fewer daily opens, more weekly opens (2–6), and 8–12 weeks of chosen-day H/L.
Macro — Show only Monthly Opens (1–6 months), dashed style, thicker lines for clarity.
Reading the examples
Broken lines disappear — decluttering in action:
Macro outlook — monthly opens as cycle rails:
Liquidity map — previous day highs + daily open:
Final note
These are not “signals”—they’re reference points that many participants watch. By standardising how you draw them and automatically clearing the ones that no longer matter, you turn a noisy chart into a focused map: where liquidity likely sits, where price memory lives, and which lines are still in play.
Quantile Regression Bands [BackQuant]Quantile Regression Bands
Tail-aware trend channeling built from quantiles of real errors, not just standard deviations.
What it does
This indicator fits a simple linear trend over a rolling lookback and then measures how price has actually deviated from that trend during the window. It then places two pairs of bands at user-chosen quantiles of those deviations (inner and outer). Because bands are based on empirical quantiles rather than a symmetric standard deviation, they adapt to skewed and fat-tailed behaviour and often hug price better in trending or asymmetric markets.
Why “quantile” bands instead of Bollinger-style bands?
Bollinger Bands assume a (roughly) symmetric spread around the mean; quantiles don’t—upper and lower bands can sit at different distances if the error distribution is skewed.
Quantiles are robust to outliers; a single shock won’t inflate the bands for many bars.
You can choose tails precisely (e.g., 1%/99% or 5%/95%) to match your risk appetite.
How it works (intuitive)
Center line — a rolling linear regression approximates the local trend.
Residuals — for each bar in the lookback, the indicator looks at the gap between actual price and where the line “expected” price to be.
Quantiles — those gaps are sorted; you select which percentiles become your inner/outer offsets.
Bands — the chosen quantile offsets are added to the current end of the regression line to draw parallel support/resistance rails.
Smoothing — a light EMA can be applied to reduce jitter in the line and bands.
What you see
Center (linear regression) line (optional).
Inner quantile bands (e.g., 25th/75th) with optional translucent fill.
Outer quantile bands (e.g., 1st/99th) with a multi-step gradient to visualise “tail zones.”
Optional bar coloring: bars trend-colored by whether price is rising above or falling below the center line.
Alerts when price crosses the outer bands (upper or lower).
How to read it
Trend & drift — the slope of the center line is your local trend. Persistent closes on the same side of the center line indicate directional drift.
Pullbacks — tags of the inner band often mark routine pullbacks within trend. Reaction back to the center line can be used for continuation entries/partials.
Tails & squeezes — outer-band touches highlight statistically rare excursions for the chosen window. Frequent outer-band activity can signal regime change or volatility expansion.
Asymmetry — if the upper band sits much further from the center than the lower (or vice versa), recent behaviour has been skewed. Trade management can be adjusted accordingly (e.g., wider take-profit upslope than downslope).
A simple trend interpretation can be derived from the bar colouring
Good use-cases
Volatility-aware mean reversion — fade moves into outer bands back toward the center when trend is flat.
Trend participation — buy pullbacks to the inner band above a rising center; flip logic for shorts below a falling center.
Risk framing — set dynamic stops/targets at quantile rails so position sizing respects recent tail behaviour rather than fixed ticks.
Inputs (quick guide)
Source — price input used for the fit (default: close).
Lookback Length — bars in the regression window and residual sample. Longer = smoother, slower bands; shorter = tighter, more reactive.
Inner/Outer Quantiles (τ) — choose your “typical” vs “tail” levels (e.g., 0.25/0.75 inner, 0.01/0.99 outer).
Show toggles — independently toggle center line, inner bands, outer bands, and their fills.
Colors & transparency — customize band and fill appearance; gradient shading highlights the tail zone.
Band Smoothing Length — small EMA on lines to reduce stair-step artefacts without meaningfully changing levels.
Bar Coloring — optional trend tint from the center line’s momentum.
Practical settings
Swing trading — Length 75–150; inner τ = 0.25/0.75, outer τ = 0.05/0.95.
Intraday — Length 50–100 for liquid futures/FX; consider 0.20/0.80 inner and 0.02/0.98 outer in high-vol assets.
Crypto — Because of fat tails, try slightly wider outers (0.01/0.99) and keep smoothing at 2–4 to tame weekend jumps.
Signal ideas
Continuation — in an uptrend, look for pullback into the lower inner band with a close back above the center as a timing cue.
Exhaustion probe — in ranges, first touch of an outer band followed by a rejection candle back inside the inner band often precedes mean-reversion swings.
Regime shift — repeated closes beyond an outer band or a sharp re-tilt in the center line can mark a new trend phase; adjust tactics (stop-following along the opposite inner band).

“Price Crosses Upper Outer Band” — potential overextension or breakout risk.
“Price Crosses Lower Outer Band” — potential capitulation or breakdown risk.
Notes
The fit and quantiles are computed on a fixed rolling window and do not repaint; bands update as the window moves forward.
Quantiles are based on the recent distribution; if conditions change abruptly, expect band widths and skew to adapt over the next few bars.
Parameter choices directly shape behaviour: longer windows favour stability, tighter inner quantiles increase touch frequency, and extreme outer quantiles highlight only the rarest moves.
Final thought
Quantile bands answer a simple question: “How unusual is this move given the current trend and the way price has been missing it lately?” By scoring that question with real, distribution-aware limits rather than one-size-fits-all volatility you get cleaner pullback zones in trends, more honest “extreme” tags in ranges, and a framework for risk that matches the market’s recent personality.

Sequential Pattern Strength [QuantAlgo]🟢 Overview
The Sequential Pattern Strength indicator measures the power and sustainability of consecutive price movements by tracking unbroken sequences of up or down closes. It incorporates sequence quality assessment, price extension analysis, and automatic exhaustion detection to help traders identify when strong trends are losing momentum and approaching potential reversal or continuation points.
🟢 How It Works
The indicator's key insight lies in its sequential pattern tracking system, where pattern strength is measured by analyzing consecutive price movements and their sustainability:
if close > close
upSequence := upSequence + 1
downSequence := 0
else if close < close
downSequence := downSequence + 1
upSequence := 0
The system calculates sequence quality by measuring how "perfect" the consecutive moves are:
perfectMoves = math.max(upSequence, downSequence)
totalMoves = math.abs(bar_index - ta.valuewhen(upSequence == 1 or downSequence == 1, bar_index, 0))
sequenceQuality = totalMoves > 0 ? perfectMoves / totalMoves : 1.0
First, it tracks price extension from the sequence starting point:
priceExtension = (close - sequenceStartPrice) / sequenceStartPrice * 100
Then, pattern exhaustion is identified when sequences become overextended:
isExhausted = math.abs(currentSequence) >= maxSequence or
math.abs(priceExtension) > resetThreshold * math.abs(currentSequence)
Finally, the pattern strength combines sequence length, quality, and price movement with momentum enhancement:
patternStrength = currentSequence * sequenceQuality * (1 + math.abs(priceExtension) / 10)
enhancedSignal = patternStrength + momentum * 10
signal = ta.ema(enhancedSignal, smooth)
This creates a sequence-based momentum indicator that combines consecutive movement analysis with pattern sustainability assessment, providing traders with both directional signals and exhaustion insights for entry/exit timing.
🟢 Signal Interpretation
Positive Values (Above Zero): Sequential pattern strength indicating bullish momentum with consecutive upward price movements and sustained buying pressure = Long/Buy opportunities
Negative Values (Below Zero): Sequential pattern strength indicating bearish momentum with consecutive downward price movements and sustained selling pressure = Short/Sell opportunities
Zero Line Crosses: Pattern transitions between bullish and bearish regimes, indicating potential trend changes or momentum shifts when sequences break
Upper Threshold Zone: Area above maximum sequence threshold (2x maxSequence) indicating extremely strong bullish patterns approaching exhaustion levels
Lower Threshold Zone: Area below negative threshold (-2x maxSequence) indicating extremely strong bearish patterns approaching exhaustion levels
EMA + RSI Daily Bias Clarity Indi📊 EMA + RSI Daily Bias • Clarity Panel
This indicator is built for clarity, structure, and confidence in trading.
It combines EMAs, RSI, and a Daily Bias filter into one panel that helps you quickly understand trend, momentum, and alignment without cluttering your chart.
It does not provide signals or financial advice — instead, it simplifies your decision-making process by presenting conditions in a clear format.
🔧 Features
📈 Customizable EMAs (Fast & Slow)
Define short-term vs. medium-term trend direction.
Adjust the lengths for scalping, intraday, or swing trading.
🎯 RSI Integration
Tracks momentum on your active timeframe.
Highlights overbought (OB) and oversold (OS) conditions.
Used to filter entries and avoid chasing stretched moves.
🧭 Daily Bias (Higher Timeframe RSI)
Pulls RSI from the Daily chart (or chosen HTF).
Helps confirm if your local trade setup is aligned with higher timeframe momentum.
✨ Clarity Panel with Emojis
Displays Trend, HTF Bias, RSI reading, and State.
States include:
⏳ WAIT → No alignment or unclear conditions.
🟢 / 🔴 CONFIRM → Trend, RSI, and bias all align for a setup.
💰 COLLECT → RSI stretched to OB/OS, take partials or be cautious.
⚡ Optional Chart Markers
BUY/SELL labels appear when conditions align.
Alerts can be enabled for CONFIRM and COLLECT conditions.
💡 How to Use
Start with EMAs → Check if price is trending above or below EMAs to determine short-term direction.
Look at Daily Bias → See if RSI bias from higher timeframe (Daily by default) agrees with your local setup.
Check RSI → If RSI is neutral, WAIT. If RSI confirms momentum with trend + bias, CONFIRM. If RSI is stretched into OB/OS, COLLECT.
Use Panel for Quick Reads → The panel gives you a “dashboard” view of conditions so you don’t second-guess.
Combine with Your Own Strategy → This script is best used as a clarity filter to stay disciplined, not as a standalone signal generator.
📊 Example Workflow
Price above both EMAs ✅
Daily Bias shows BULL ✅
RSI at 62 (above midline, not yet overbought) ✅
→ Panel shows 🟢 CONFIRM → consider entering long.
Later, RSI rises to 72 (overbought) → Panel switches to 💰 COLLECT → take profits or tighten stops.
⚠️ Disclaimer

Always use proper risk management and combine with your own trading plan.
Balanced Big Wicks (50/50) HighlighterThis open-source indicator highlights candles with balanced long wicks (50/50 style)—that is, candles where both upper and lower shadows are each at least 30–60% of the full range and within ~8% of each other, while retaining a substantial body. This specific structure often reflects indecision or liquidity sweeps and can precede strong breakout moves.
How It Works (Inputs and Logic)
Min wick % (each side): 30–60% of candle range
Max body %: up to 60% of range (preserves strong body presence)
Equality tolerance: wicks within 8% of each other
ATR filter (multiples of ATR14): ensures only significant-range candles are flagged
When a “50/50” candle forms, it’s visually colored and labeled; audibly alertable.
How to Use It
Long setup: price closes above the wick-high → potential long entry (SL below wick-low, TP = 1:1).
Short setup: price closes below wick-low → potential short entry (SL above wick-high, TP = 1:1).
Especially effective on 5–15 minute scalping charts when aligned with high-volume sessions or HTF trend context.
Why This Indicator Is Unique
Unlike standard wick or doji voters, this script specifically filters for candles with a strong body and symmetrical wicks, paired with a range filter, reducing noise significantly.
Important Notes
No unrealistic claims: backtested setups indicate high occurrence of clean breakouts, though performance depends on market structure.
Script built responsibly: uses real-time calculations only, no future-data lookahead.
Visuals on the published chart reflect default input values exactly.
Liquidity Swing Points [BackQuant]Liquidity Swing Points
This tool marks recent swing highs and swing lows and turns them into persistent horizontal “liquidity” levels. These are places where resting orders often accumulate, such as stop losses above prior highs and below prior lows. The script detects confirmed pivots, records their prices, draws lines and labels, and manages their lifecycle on the chart so you can monitor potential sweep or breakout zones without manual redrawing.
What it plots
LQ-H at confirmed swing highs
LQ-L at confirmed swing lows
Horizontal levels that can optionally extend into the future
Timed removal of old levels to keep the chart clean
Each level stores its price, the bar where it was created, its type (high or low), plus a label and a line reference for efficient updates.
How it works
Pivot detection
A swing high is confirmed when the highest high has swing_length bars on both sides that are lower.
A swing low is confirmed when the lowest low has swing_length bars on both sides that are higher.
Pivots are only marked after they are confirmed, so they do not repaint.
Level creation
When a pivot confirms, the script records the price and the creation bar (offset by the right lookback).
A new line is plotted at that price, labeled LQ-H or LQ-L.
Rendering and extension
Levels can be drawn to the most recent bar only or extended to the right for forward reference.
Label size and line color/transparency are configurable.
Lifecycle management
On each confirmed bar, the script checks level age.
Levels older than a chosen bar count are removed automatically to reduce clutter.
How it can be used
Liquidity sweeps: Watch for price to probe beyond a level then close back inside. That behavior often signals a potential fade back into the prior range.
Breakout validation: If price pushes through a level and holds on closes, traders may treat that as continuation. Retests of the level from the other side can serve as structure checks.
Context for entries and exits: Use nearby LQ-H or LQ-L as reference for stop placement or partial-take zones, especially when other tools agree.
Multi-timeframe mapping: Plot swing points on higher timeframes, then drill down to time entries on lower timeframes as price interacts with those levels.
Why liquidity levels matter
Prior swing points are focal areas where many strategies set stops or pending orders. Price often revisits these zones, either to “sweep” resting liquidity before reversing, or to absorb it and trend. Marking these areas objectively helps frame scenarios like failed breaks, successful breakouts, and retests, and it reduces the subjectivity of eyeballing structure.
Settings to know
Swing Detection Length (swing_length), Controls sensitivity. Lower values find more local swings. Higher values find more significant ones.
Bars until removal (removeafter), Deletes levels after a fixed number of bars to prevent buildup.
Extend Levels Right (extend_levels), Keeps levels projected into the future for easier planning.
Label Size (label_size), Choose tiny to large for chart readability.
One color input controls both high and low levels with transparency for context.
Strengths
Objective marking of recent structure without hand drawing
No repaint after confirmation since pivots are locked once the right lookback completes
Lightweight and fast with simple lifecycle management
Clear visuals that integrate well with any price-action workflow
Practical tips
For scalping: use smaller swing_length to capture more granular liquidity. Keep removeafter short to avoid clutter.
For swing trading: increase swing_length so only more meaningful levels remain. Consider extending levels to the right for planning.
Combine with time-of-day filters, ATR for stop sizing, or a separate trend filter to bias trades taken at the levels.
Keep screenshots focused: one image showing a sweep and reversal, another showing a clean breakout and retest.
Limitations and notes
Levels appear after confirmation, so they are delayed by swing_length bars. This is by design to avoid repainting.
On very noisy or illiquid symbols, you may see many nearby levels. Increasing swing_length and shortening removeafter helps.
The script does not assess volume or session context. Consider pairing with volume or session tools if that is part of your process.

Adaptive Valuation [BackQuant]Adaptive Valuation
What this is
A composite, zero-centered oscillator that standardizes several classic indicators and blends them into one “valuation” line. It computes RSI, CCI, Demarker, and the Price Zone Oscillator, converts each to a rolling z-score, then forms a weighted average. Optional smoothing, dynamic overbought and oversold bands, and an on-chart table make the inputs and the final score easy to inspect.
How it works
Components
• RSI with its own lookback.
• CCI with its own lookback.
• DM (Demarker) with its own lookback.
• PZO (Price Zone Oscillator) with its own lookback.
Standardization via z-score
Each component is transformed using a rolling z-score over lookback bars:
z = (value − mean) ÷ stdev , where the mean is an EMA and the stdev is rolling.
This puts all inputs on a comparable scale measured in standard deviations.
Weighted blend
The z-scores are combined with user weights w_rsi, w_cci, w_dm, w_pzo to produce a single valuation series. If desired, it is then smoothed with a selected moving average (SMA, EMA, WMA, HMA, RMA, DEMA, TEMA, LINREG, ALMA, T3). ALMA’s sigma input shapes its curve.
Dynamic thresholds (optional)
Two ways to set overbought and oversold:
• Static : fixed levels at ob_thres and os_thres .
• Dynamic : ±k·σ bands, where σ is the rolling standard deviation of the valuation over dynLen .
Bands can be centered at zero or around the valuation’s rolling mean ( centerZero ).
Visualization and UI
• Zero line at 0 with gradient fill that darkens as the valuation moves away from 0.
• Optional plotting of band lines and background highlights when OB or OS is active.
• Optional candle and background coloring driven by the valuation.
• Summary table showing each component’s current z-score, the final score, and a compact status.
How it can be used
• Bias filter : treat crosses above 0 as bullish bias and below 0 as bearish bias.
• Mean-reversion context : look for exhaustion when the valuation enters the OB or OS region, then watch for exits from those regions or a return toward 0.
• Signal confirmation : use the final score to confirm setups from structure or price action.
• Adaptive banding : with dynamic thresholds, OB and OS adjust to prevailing variability rather than relying on fixed lines.
• Component tuning : change weights to emphasize trend (raise DM, reduce RSI/CCI) or range behavior (raise RSI/CCI, reduce DM). PZO can help in swing environments.
Why z-score blending helps
Indicators often live on different scales. Z-scoring places them on a common, unitless axis, so a one-sigma move in RSI has comparable influence to a one-sigma move in CCI. This reduces scale bias and allows transparent weighting. It also facilitates regime-aware thresholds because the dynamic bands scale with recent dispersion.
Inputs to know
• Component lookbacks : rsilb, ccilb, dmlb, pzolb control each raw signal.
• Standardization window : lookback sets the z-score memory. Longer smooths, shorter reacts.
• Weights : w_rsi, w_cci, w_dm, w_pzo determine each component’s influence.
• Smoothing : maType, smoothP, sig govern optional post-blend smoothing.
• Dynamic bands : dyn_thres, dynLen, thres_k, centerZero configure the adaptive OB/OS logic.
• UI : toggle the plot, table, candle coloring, and threshold lines.
Reading the plot
• Above 0 : composite pressure is positive.
• Below 0 : composite pressure is negative.
• OB region : valuation above the chosen OB line. Risk of mean reversion rises and momentum continuation needs evidence.
• OS region : mirror logic on the downside.
• Band exits : leaving OB or OS can serve as a normalization cue.
Strengths
• Normalizes heterogeneous signals into one interpretable series.
• Adjustable component weights to match instrument behavior.
• Dynamic thresholds adapt to changing volatility and drift.
• Transparent diagnostics from the on-chart table.
• Flexible smoothing choices, including ALMA and T3.
Limitations and cautions
• Z-scores assume a reasonably stationary window. Sharp regime shifts can make recent bands unrepresentative.
• Highly correlated components can overweight the same effect. Consider adjusting weights to avoid double counting.
• More smoothing adds lag. Less smoothing adds noise.
• Dynamic bands recalibrate with dynLen ; if set too short, bands may swing excessively. If too long, bands can be slow to adapt.
Practical tuning tips
• Trending symbols: increase w_dm , use a modest smoother like EMA or T3, and use centerZero dynamic bands.
• Choppy symbols: increase w_rsi and w_cci , consider ALMA with a higher sigma , and widen bands with a larger thres_k .
• Multiday swing charts: lengthen lookback and dynLen to stabilize the scale.
• Lower timeframes: shorten component lookbacks slightly and reduce smoothing to keep signals timely.
Alerts
• Enter and exit of Overbought and Oversold, based on the active band choice.
• Bullish and bearish zero crosses.
Use alerts as prompts to review context rather than as stand-alone trade commands.
Final Remarks
We created this to show people a different way of making indicators & trading.
You can process normal indicators in multiple ways to enhance or change the signal, especially with this you can utilise machine learning to optimise the weights, then trade accordingly.
All of the different components were selected to give some sort of signal, its made out of simple components yet is effective. As long as the user calibrates it to their Trading/ investing style you can find good results. Do not use anything standalone, ensure you are backtesting and creating a proper system.

How to Use:
📈 Long Entry Condition
A long position is triggered when the following conditions align:
The Fear Index Bulls are showing upward momentum, indicating strengthening bullish sentiment.
The Fear Index Bears are simultaneously declining, signaling weakening bearish pressure.
The Trend Shift Histogram transitions from a short bias to a long bias, confirming a structural shift in market direction.
When all three conditions occur together, it provides a strong confluence to initiate a long trade entry.
📉 Short Entry Condition
A short position is triggered when the opposite conditions align:
The Fear Index Bears are showing upward momentum, indicating strengthening bearish sentiment.
The Fear Index Bulls are simultaneously declining, signaling weakening bullish pressure.
The Trend Shift Histogram transitions from a long bias to a short bias, confirming a structural shift in market direction.
When all three conditions occur together, it provides a strong confluence to initiate a short trade entry.
🔄 Bullish Trend Cycle
During a bullish phase as per the Fear Index, you can capture the entire cycle by:
Entry: Taking entries when the Trend Shift Histogram begins printing green bars, which mark the start of a bullish trend shift.
Exit: Closing the position when the histogram transitions to grey bars, signaling exhaustion or a potential pause in the bullish cycle.
This approach allows you to ride the bullish momentum effectively while respecting market cycle shifts.
🔻 Bearish Trend Cycle
During a bearish phase as per the Fear Index, you can capture the entire cycle by:
Entry: Taking entries when the Trend Shift Histogram begins printing red bars, which mark the start of a bearish trend shift.
Exit: Closing the position when the histogram transitions to grey bars, signaling exhaustion or a potential pause in the bearish cycle.
This approach ensures that bearish trends are traded with precision, avoiding late entries and capturing maximum move potential.
Watch for histogram color changes (green = bullish, red = bearish, grey = sideways).
Adjust length settings based on your style:
Small = intraday & scalping precision.
Large = swing & positional confidence.
Combine signals with Fear Index peaks for high-probability reversal zones.
Apply across any timeframe for flexible strategy building.

FluidFlow OscillatorFluidFlow Oscillator: Study Material for Traders
Overview
The FluidFlow Oscillator is a custom technical indicator designed to measure price momentum and market flow dynamics by simulating fluid motion concepts such as velocity, viscosity, and turbulence. It helps traders identify potential buy and sell signals along with trend strength, momentum direction, and volatility conditions.
This study explains the underlying calculation concepts, signal logic, visual cues, and how to interpret the professional dashboard table that summarizes key indicator readings.
________________________________________
How the FluidFlow Oscillator Works
Core Mechanisms
1. Price Flow Velocity
o Measures the rate of change of price over a specified flow length (default 40 bars).
o Calculated as a percentage change of closing price: roc=close−closelen_flowcloselen_flow×100\text{roc} = \frac{\text{close} - \text{close}_{len\_flow}}{\text{close}_{len\_flow}} \times 100roc=closelen_flowclose−closelen_flow×100
o Smoothed by an EMA (Exponential Moving Average) to reduce noise, generating a "flow velocity" value.
2. Viscosity Factor
o Analogous to fluid viscosity, it adjusts the flow velocity based on recent price volatility.
o Volatility is computed as the standard deviation of close prices over the flow length.
o The viscosity acts as a damping factor to slow down the flow velocity in highly volatile conditions.
o This results in a "flow with viscosity" value, that smooths out the velocity considering market turbulence.
3. Turbulence Burst
o Captures sudden changes or bursts in the flow by measuring changes between successive viscosity-adjusted flows.
o The turbulence value is a smoothed absolute change in flow.
o A burst boost factor is added to the oscillator to incorporate this rapid change component, amplifying signals during sudden shifts.
4. Oscillator Calculation
o The raw oscillator value is the sum of flow with viscosity plus burst boost, scaled by 10.
o Clamped between -100 and +100 to limit extremes.
o Finally, smoothed again by EMA for cleaner visualization.
________________________________________
Signal Logic
The oscillator works with complementary components to produce actionable signals:
• Signal Line: An EMA-smoothed version of the oscillator for generating crossover-based signals.
• Momentum: The rate of change of the oscillator itself, smoothed by EMA.
• Trend: Uses fast (21-period EMA) and slow (50-period EMA) moving averages of price to identify market trend direction (uptrend, downtrend, or sideways).
Signal Conditions
• Bullish Signal (Buy): Oscillator crosses above the oversold threshold with positive momentum.
• Bearish Signal (Sell): Oscillator crosses below the overbought threshold with negative momentum.
Statuses
The oscillator provides descriptive market states based on level and momentum:
• Overbought
• Oversold
• Buy Signal
• Sell Signal
• Bullish / Bearish (momentum-driven)
• Neutral (no clear trend)
________________________________________
Color System and Visualization
The oscillator uses a sophisticated HSV color model adapting hues according to:
• Oscillator value magnitude and sign (positive or negative)
• Acceleration of oscillator changes
• Smooth color gradients to facilitate intuitive understanding of trend strength and momentum shifts
Background colors highlight overbought (red tint) and oversold (green tint) zones with transparency.
________________________________________
How to Understand the Professional Dashboard Table
The FluidFlow Oscillator offers an integrated table at the bottom center of the chart. This dashboard summarizes critical indicator readings in 8 columns across 3 rows:
Column Description
SIGNAL Current signal status (e.g., Buy, Sell, Overbought) with color coding
OSCILLATOR Current oscillator value (-100 to +100) with color reflecting intensity and direction
MOMENTUM Momentum bias indicating strength/direction of oscillator changes (Strong Up, Up, Sideways, Down, Strong Down)
TREND Current trend status based on EMAs (Strong Uptrend, Uptrend, Sideways, Downtrend, Strong Downtrend)
VOLATILITY Volatility percentage relative to average, indicating market activity level
FLOW Flow velocity value describing price momentum magnitude and direction
TURBULENCE Turbulence level indicating sudden bursts or spikes in price movement
PROGRESS Oscillator's position mapped as a percentage (0% to 100%) showing proximity to extreme levels
Rows Explained
• Row 1 (Header): Labels for each metric.
• Row 2 (Values): Current numerical or descriptive values color-coded along a professional scheme:
o Green or lime tones indicate positive or bullish conditions.
o Red or orange tones indicate caution, sell signals, or bearish conditions.
o Blue tones indicate neutral or stable conditions.
• Row 3 (Status Indicators): Emoji-like icons and bars provide a quick visual gauge of each metric's intensity or signal strength:
o For example, "🟢🟢🟢" suggests very strong bullish momentum, while "🔴🔴🔴" suggests strong bearish momentum.
o Progress bar visually demonstrates oscillator movement toward oversold or overbought extremes.
________________________________________
Practical Interpretation Tips
• A Buy signal with green colors and strong momentum usually precedes upward price moves.
• An Overbought status with red background and red table colors warns of potential price corrections or reversals.
• Watch the Turbulence to gauge market instability; spikes may precede price shocks or volatility bursts.
• Confirm signals with the Trend and Momentum columns to avoid false entries.
• Use the Progress bar to anticipate oscillations approaching key threshold levels for timing trades.
________________________________________
Alerts
The oscillator supports alerts for:
• Buy and sell signals based on oscillator crossovers.
• Overbought and oversold levels reached.
These help traders automate awareness of important market conditions.

Price Acceleration Matrix [QuantAlgo]🟢 Overview
The Price Acceleration Matrix indicator is an advanced momentum analysis tool that measures the rate of change in price velocity across multiple timeframes simultaneously. It transforms raw price data into velocity measurements for each timeframe, then calculates the acceleration of these velocities to identify when momentum is building or deteriorating. By analyzing acceleration alignment across all three timeframes, the system can distinguish between strong directional moves (all timeframes accelerating in the same direction) and weak, choppy movements (mixed acceleration signals). This multi-timeframe acceleration matrix provides traders with early warning signals for momentum shifts, trend continuation and reversal opportunities across different timeframes and asset classes.
🟢 How It Works
The indicator employs a three-stage calculation process that transforms price data into actionable acceleration signals. First, it calculates velocity (rate of price change) for each of the three user-defined timeframes by measuring the percentage change in price over the specified lookback periods. These velocity calculations are normalized by their respective timeframe lengths to ensure fair comparison across different periods.
In the second stage, the system calculates acceleration by measuring the change in velocity from one bar to the next for each timeframe, effectively capturing the second derivative of price movement. This acceleration data reveals whether momentum is building (positive acceleration) or deteriorating (negative acceleration) at each timeframe level.
The final stage creates the acceleration matrix score by evaluating alignment across all three timeframes. When all timeframes show positive acceleration, the system averages them for maximum bullish signal strength. When all show negative acceleration, it averages them for maximum bearish signal strength. However, when acceleration signals are mixed across timeframes, the system applies a penalty by dividing the average by two, indicating consolidation or conflicting momentum forces. The resulting signal is then smoothed using an Exponential Moving Average and scaled to the -3 to +3 range using a user-defined threshold parameter.
🟢 How to Use
1. Signal Interpretation and Momentum Analysis
Positive Territory (Above Zero): Indicates accelerating upward momentum with bullish bias and favorable conditions for long positions
Negative Territory (Below Zero): Signals accelerating downward momentum with bearish bias and favorable conditions for short positions
Extreme Levels (±2 to ±3): Represent maximum acceleration alignment across all timeframes, indicating high-probability momentum continuation
Moderate Levels (±1 to ±2): Suggest building momentum with good timeframe alignment but less conviction than extreme readings
Near Zero (-0.5 to +0.5): Indicates mixed signals, consolidation, or momentum exhaustion requiring caution
2. Overbought/Oversold Zone Analysis
Above +2 (Overbought Zone): Markets showing extreme bullish acceleration may be due for profit-taking or short-term pullbacks
Below -2 (Oversold Zone): Markets showing extreme bearish acceleration may present reversal opportunities or bounce potential
Zone Exits: When acceleration retreats from extreme zones, it often signals momentum exhaustion and potential trend changes
🟢 Pro Tips for Trading
→ Early Momentum Detection: Watch for acceleration crossing above zero after periods of negative readings, as this often precedes major price movements by several bars, providing early entry opportunities before traditional indicators signal.
→ Momentum Exhaustion Signals: Exit or take profits when acceleration reaches extreme levels (±2.5 or higher) and begins to decline, even if price continues in the same direction, as momentum deterioration typically precedes price reversals.
→ Acceleration Divergence Strategy: Look for divergences between price highs/lows and acceleration peaks/troughs, as these often signal weakening momentum and potential reversal opportunities before they become apparent on price charts.
→ Threshold Optimization: Adjust the acceleration threshold based on asset volatility - higher thresholds (0.7-1.0) for volatile assets to reduce false signals, lower thresholds (0.3-0.5) for stable assets to maintain sensitivity.
→ Alert-Based Trading: Utilize the built-in alert system for bullish/bearish reversals (±2 level crosses) and trend changes (zero line crosses) to capture momentum shifts without constant chart monitoring, especially effective for swing trading approaches.
→ Risk Management Integration: Reduce position sizes when acceleration readings are weak (below ±1.0) and increase allocation when strong acceleration alignment occurs (above ±2.0), as signal strength correlates directly with probability of successful trades.

5 Min Scalping Oscillator### Overview
The 5 Min Scalping Oscillator is a custom oscillator designed to provide traders with a unified momentum signal by fusing normalized versions of the Relative Strength Index (RSI), Stochastic RSI, and Commodity Channel Index (CCI). This combination creates a more balanced view of market momentum, overbought/oversold conditions, and potential reversals, while incorporating adaptive smoothing, dynamic thresholds, and market condition filters to reduce noise and false signals. Unlike standalone oscillators, the 5 Min Scalping Oscillator adapts to trending or sideways regimes, volatility levels, and higher timeframe biases, making it particularly suited for short-term charts like 5-minute timeframes where quick, filtered signals are valuable.
### Purpose and Originality of the Fusion
Traditional oscillators like RSI measure momentum but can lag in volatile markets; Stochastic RSI adds sensitivity to RSI extremes but often generates excessive noise; and CCI identifies cyclical deviations but may overreact to minor price swings. The 5 Min Scalping Oscillator addresses these limitations by weighting and blending their normalized outputs (RSI at 45%, Stochastic RSI at 35%, and CCI at 20%) into a single raw oscillator value. This weighted fusion creates a hybrid signal that balances lag reduction with noise filtering, resulting in a more robust indicator for identifying reversal opportunities.
The originality lies in extending this fusion with:
- **Adaptive Smoothing via KAMA (Kaufman's Adaptive Moving Average):** Adjusts responsiveness based on market efficiency, speeding up in trends and slowing in ranges—unlike fixed EMAs, this helps preserve signal integrity without over-smoothing.
- **Dynamic Overbought/Oversold Thresholds:** Calculated using rolling percentiles over a user-defined lookback (default 200+ periods), these levels adapt to recent oscillator behavior rather than relying on static values like 70/30, making the indicator more responsive to asset-specific volatility.
- **Multi-Factor Filters:** Integrates ADX for trend detection, ATR percentiles for volatility confirmation, and optional higher timeframe RSI bias to ensure signals align with broader market context. This layered approach reduces false positives (e.g., ignoring low-volatility crossovers) and adds a confidence score based on filter alignment, which is not typically found in simple mashups.
This design justifies the combination: it's not a mere overlay of indicators but a purposeful integration that enhances usefulness by providing context-aware signals, helping traders avoid common pitfalls like trading against the trend or in low-volatility chop. The result is an original tool that performs better in diverse conditions, especially on 5-minute charts for intraday trading, where rapid adaptations are key.
### How It Works
The 5 Min Scalping Oscillator processes price data through these steps:
1. **Normalization and Fusion:**
- RSI (default length 10) is normalized to a -1 to +1 scale using a tanh transformation for bounded output.
- Stochastic RSI (default length 14) is derived from RSI highs/lows and scaled similarly.
- CCI (default length 14) is tanh-normalized to align with the others.
- These are weighted and summed into a raw value, emphasizing RSI for core momentum while using Stochastic RSI for edge sensitivity and CCI for cycle detection.
2. **Smoothing and Signal Line:**
- The raw value is smoothed (default KAMA with fast/slow periods 2/30 and efficiency length 10) to reduce whipsaws.
- A shorter signal line (half the smoothing length) is added for crossover detections.
3. **Filters and Enhancements:**
- **Trend Regime:** ADX (default length 14, threshold 20) classifies markets as trending (ADX > threshold) or sideways, allowing signals in both but prioritizing alignment.
- **Volatility Check:** ATR (default length 14) percentile (default 85%) ensures signals only trigger in above-average volatility, filtering out flat markets.
- **Higher Timeframe Bias:** Optional RSI (default length 14 on 60-minute timeframe) provides bull/neutral/bear bias (above 55, 45-55, below 45), requiring signal alignment (e.g., bullish signals only if bias is neutral or bull).
- **Dynamic Levels:** Percentiles (default OB 85%, OS 15%) over recent oscillator values set adaptive overbought/oversold lines.
4. **Signal Generation:**
- Bullish (B) signals on upward crossovers of the smoothed line over the signal line, filtered by conditions.
- Bearish (S) signals on downward crossunders.
- Each signal includes a confidence score (0-100) based on factors like trend alignment (25 points), volatility (15 points), and bias (20 points if strong, 10 if neutral).
The output includes a glowing oscillator line, histogram for divergence spotting, dynamic levels, shapes/labels for signals, and a dashboard table summarizing regime, ADX, bias, levels, and last signal.
### How to Use It
This indicator is easy to apply and interpret, even for beginners:
- **Adding to Chart:** Apply the 5 Min Scalping Oscillator to a clean chart (no other indicators unless explained). It's non-overlay, so it appears in a separate pane. For 5-minute timeframes, keep defaults or tweak lengths shorter for faster response (e.g., RSI 8-12).
- **Interpreting Signals:**
- Look for green upward triangles labeled "B" (bullish) at the bottom for potential entry opportunities in uptrends or reversals.
- Red downward triangles labeled "S" (bearish) at the top signal potential exits or shorts.
- Higher confidence scores (e.g., 70+) indicate stronger alignment—use these for priority trades.
- Watch the histogram for divergences (e.g., price higher highs but histogram lower highs suggest weakening momentum).
- Dynamic OB (green line) and OS (red line) help gauge extremes; signals near these are more reliable.
- **Dashboard:** At the bottom-right, it shows real-time info like "Trending" or "Sideways" regime, ADX value, HTF bias (Bull/Neutral/Bear), OB/OS levels, and last signal—use this for quick context.
- **Customization:** Adjust inputs via the settings panel:
- Toggle KAMA for adaptive vs. EMA smoothing.
- Set HTF to "60" for 1-hour bias on 5-min charts.
- Increase ADX threshold to 25 for stricter trend filtering.
- **Best Practices:** Combine with price action (e.g., support/resistance) or volume for confirmation. On 5-min charts, pair with a 1-hour HTF for intraday scalping. Always use stop-losses and risk no more than 1-2% per trade.
### Default Settings Explanation
Defaults are optimized for 5-minute charts on volatile assets like stocks or forex:
- RSI/Stoch/CCI lengths (10/14/14): Shorter for quick momentum capture.
- Signal smoothing (5): Responsive without excessive lag.
- ADX threshold (20): Balances trend detection.
- ATR percentile (0.85): Filters ~15% of low-vol signals.
- HTF RSI (14 on 60-min): Aligns with hourly trends.
- Percentiles (OB 85%, OS 15%): Adaptive to recent data.
If changing, test on historical data to ensure fit—e.g., longer lengths for less noisy assets.
