Combined ATR + VolumeOverview
The Combined ATR + Volume indicator (C-ATR+Vol) is designed to measure both price volatility and market participation by merging the Average True Range (ATR) and trading volume into a single normalized value. This provides traders with a more comprehensive tool than ATR alone, as it highlights not only how much price is moving, but also whether there is sufficient volume behind those moves.
Originality & Utility
Two Key Components
ATR (Average True Range): Measures price volatility by analyzing the range (high–low) over a specified period. A higher ATR often indicates larger price swings.
Volume: Reflects how actively traders are participating in the market. High volume typically indicates strong buying or selling interest.
Normalized Combination
Both ATR and volume are independently normalized to a 0–100 range.
The final output (C-ATR+Vol) is the average of these two normalized values. This makes it easy to see when both volatility and market participation are relatively high.
Practical Use
Above 80: Signifies elevated volatility and strong volume. Markets may experience significant moves.
Around 50–80: Indicates moderate activity. Price swings and volume are neither extreme nor minimal.
Below 50: Suggests relatively low volatility and lower participation. The market may be ranging or consolidating.
This combined approach can help filter out situations where volatility is high but volume is absent—or vice versa—providing a more reliable context for potential breakouts or trend continuations.
Indicator Logic
ATR Calculation
Uses Pine Script’s built-in ta.tr(true) function to measure true range, then smooths it with a user-selected method (RMA, SMA, EMA, or WMA).
Key Input: ATR Length (default 14).
Volume Calculation
Smooths the built-in volume variable using the same selectable smoothing methods.
Key Input: Volume Length (default 14).
Normalization
For each metric (ATR and Volume), the script finds the lowest and highest values over the lookback period and converts them into a 0–100 scale:
normalized value
=(current value−min)(max−min)×100
normalized value= (max−min)(current value−min) ×100
Combined Score
The final plot is the average of Normalized ATR and Normalized Volume. This single value simplifies the process of identifying high-volatility, high-volume conditions.
How to Use
Setup
Add the indicator to your chart.
Adjust ATR Length, Volume Length, and Smoothing to match your preferred time horizon or chart style.
Interpretation
High Values (above 80): The market is experiencing significant price movement with high participation. Potential for strong trends or breakouts.
Moderate Range (50–80): Conditions are active but not extreme. Trend setups may be forming.
Low Values (below 50): Indicates quieter markets with reduced liquidity. Expect ranging or less decisive moves.
Strategy Integration
Use C-ATR+Vol alongside other trend or momentum indicators (e.g., Moving Averages, RSI, MACD) to confirm potential entries/exits.
Combine it with support/resistance or price action analysis for a broader market view.

🔹 Combined ATR + Volume (C-ATR+Vol) 지표 설명
이 인디케이터는 ATR(Average True Range)와 거래량(Volume)을 결합하여 시장의 변동성과 유동성을 동시에 측정하는 지표입니다.
ATR은 가격 변동성의 크기를 나타내며, 거래량은 시장 참여자의 활동 수준을 반영합니다. 보통 높은 ATR은 가격 변동이 크다는 의미이고, 높은 거래량은 시장에서 적극적인 거래가 이루어지고 있음을 나타냅니다.
이 두 지표를 각각 0~100 범위로 정규화한 후, 평균을 구하여 "Combined ATR + Volume (C-ATR+Vol)" 값을 계산합니다.
이를 통해 단순한 가격 변동성뿐만 아니라 거래량까지 고려하여, 더욱 신뢰성 있는 변동성 판단을 할 수 있도록 도와줍니다.
📌 핵심 개념
1️⃣ ATR (Average True Range)란?
시장의 변동성을 측정하는 지표로, 일정 기간 동안의 고점-저점 변동폭을 기반으로 계산됩니다.
ATR이 높을수록 가격 변동이 크며, 낮을수록 횡보장이 지속될 가능성이 큽니다.
하지만 ATR은 방향성을 제공하지 않으며, 단순히 변동성의 크기만을 나타냅니다.
2️⃣ 거래량 (Volume)의 역할
거래량은 시장 참여자의 관심과 유동성을 반영하는 중요한 요소입니다.
높은 거래량은 강한 매수 또는 매도세가 존재함을 의미하며, 낮은 거래량은 시장 참여가 적거나 관심이 줄어들었음을 나타냅니다.
3️⃣ ATR + 거래량의 결합 (C-ATR+Vol)
단순한 ATR 값만으로는 변동성이 커도 거래량이 부족할 수 있으며, 반대로 거래량이 많아도 변동성이 낮을 수 있습니다.
이를 해결하기 위해 ATR과 거래량을 각각 0~100으로 정규화하여 균형 잡힌 변동성 지표를 만들었습니다.
두 지표의 평균값을 계산하여, 가격 변동과 거래량이 동시에 높은지를 측정할 수 있도록 설계되었습니다.
📊 사용법 및 해석
80 이상 → 강한 변동성 구간
가격 변동성이 크고 거래량도 높은 상태
강한 추세가 진행 중이거나 큰 변동이 일어날 가능성이 큼
상승/하락 방향성을 확인한 후 트렌드를 따라가는 전략이 유리
50~80 구간 → 보통 수준의 변동성
가격 움직임이 일정하며, 거래량도 적절한 수준
점진적인 추세 형성이 이루어질 가능성이 있음
시장이 점진적으로 상승 혹은 하락할 가능성이 크므로, 보조지표를 활용하여 매매 타이밍을 결정하는 것이 중요
50 이하 → 낮은 변동성 및 유동성 부족
가격 변동이 적고, 거래량도 낮은 상태
시장이 횡보하거나 조정 기간에 들어갈 가능성이 큼
박스권 매매(지지/저항 활용) 또는 돌파 전략을 고려할 수 있음
💡 활용 방법 및 전략
✅ 1. 트렌드 판단 보조지표로 활용
단독으로 사용하는 것보다는 RSI, MACD, 이동평균선(MA) 등의 지표와 함께 활용하는 것이 효과적입니다.
예를 들어, MACD가 상승 신호를 주고, C-ATR+Vol 값이 80을 초과하면 강한 상승 추세로 해석할 수 있습니다.
✅ 2. 변동성 돌파 전략에 활용
C-ATR+Vol이 80 이상인 구간에서 가격이 특정 저항선을 돌파한다면, 강한 추세의 시작을 의미할 수 있습니다.
반대로, C-ATR+Vol이 50 이하에서 가격이 저항선에 가까워지면 돌파 가능성이 낮아질 수 있습니다.
✅ 3. 시장 참여도와 변동성 확인
단순히 ATR만 높아서는 신뢰하기 어려운 경우가 많습니다. 예를 들어, 급등 후 거래량이 급감하면 상승 지속 가능성이 낮아질 수도 있습니다.
하지만 C-ATR+Vol을 사용하면 거래량이 함께 증가하는지를 확인하여 보다 신뢰할 수 있는 분석이 가능합니다.
🚀 결론
🔹 Combined ATR + Volume (C-ATR+Vol) 인디케이터는 단순한 ATR이 아니라 거래량까지 고려하여 변동성을 측정하는 강력한 도구입니다.
🔹 시장이 큰 움직임을 보일 가능성이 높은 구간을 찾는 데 유용하며, 80 이상일 경우 강한 변동성이 있음을 나타냅니다.
🔹 단독으로 사용하기보다는 보조지표와 함께 활용하여, 트렌드 분석 및 돌파 전략 등에 효과적으로 적용할 수 있습니다.
📌 주의사항
변동성이 크다고 해서 반드시 가격이 급등/급락한다는 보장은 없습니다.
특정한 매매 전략 없이 단순히 이 지표만 보고 매수/매도를 결정하는 것은 위험할 수 있습니다.
시장 상황에 따라 변동성의 의미가 다르게 작용할 수 있으므로, 반드시 다른 보조지표와 함께 활용하는 것이 중요합니다.
🔥 이 지표를 활용하여 시장의 변동성과 거래량을 보다 효과적으로 분석해보세요! 🚀

Composite Indicator (CCI + ATR)Composite Indicator (CCI + ATR)
The Composite Indicator (CCI + ATR) combines the Commodity Channel Index (CCI) with the Average True Range (ATR) , providing traders with a dynamic tool for identifying entry and exit points based on momentum and volatility. This indicator is particularly useful for markets like cryptocurrencies, which often exhibit sharp sell-offs and gradual upward trends.
Key Features
Momentum Analysis with CCI: The CCI calculates price momentum by comparing the current price level to its average over a specific period. The indicator generates signals when CCI crosses predefined thresholds.
- Buy Signal: Triggered when CCI crosses above the lower threshold (e.g., -100).
- Sell Signal: Triggered when CCI crosses below the upper threshold (e.g., +100).
Volatility Filtering with ATR: The ATR measures market volatility, ensuring signals occur only during significant price movements.
Separate multipliers for buy and sell signals allow tailored filtering based on market behavior.
Stop Loss Calculation: Dynamic stop loss levels are calculated using the ATR multiplier to adapt to market volatility, offering better risk management.
How It Works
CCI Calculation: The CCI is calculated using the typical price ((High + Low + Close) / 3) and a user-defined length. It detects momentum changes by measuring deviations from the average price.
ATR Calculation: The ATR determines the average price range over a specified period, identifying the market’s volatility. The ATR SMA acts as a baseline to filter signals.
Buy Signal: A buy signal is triggered when:
- CCI crosses above the lower threshold (e.g., -100).
- ATR exceeds its SMA multiplied by the buy multiplier (e.g., 1.0).
Sell Signal: A sell signal is triggered when:
- CCI crosses below the upper threshold (e.g., +100).
- ATR exceeds its SMA multiplied by the sell multiplier (e.g., 0.95).
Stop Loss Integration:
- Long positions: Stop loss = Low – (ATR * ATR Multiplier)
- Short positions: Stop loss = High + (ATR * ATR Multiplier)
Advantages
Combines momentum (CCI) and volatility (ATR) for precise signal generation.
Customizable thresholds and multipliers for different market conditions.
Dynamic stop loss ensures better risk management in volatile markets.
Suggested Parameter Settings
CCI Length: 20 (default). Adjust as follows:
- 10–15: Shorter timeframes (e.g., 5-15 minutes).
- 20: General use for 1-hour timeframes.
- 30–50: Longer timeframes (e.g., 4-hour or daily charts).
CCI Threshold: 100 (default). Adjust as follows:
- 50–75: For more frequent signals in ranging markets.
- 100: Balanced for most trading conditions.
- 150–200: For strong trends to reduce noise.
ATR Length: 14 (default). Adjust as follows:
- 10–14: For assets with moderate volatility.

BTCUSD 6hr Performance
█ Strategy, How It Works: Detailed Explanation
The Fibonacci ATR Fusion Strategy utilizes a combination of technical indicators and weighted averages to determine optimal entry and exit points. Below is a breakdown of its key components and operational logic.
🔶 1. Enhanced True Range Calculation
The strategy begins by calculating the True Range (TR) to measure market volatility accurately.
TR = max(High - Low, abs(High - Previous Close), abs(Low - Previous Close))
High and Low: Highest and lowest prices of the current trading period.
Previous Close: Closing price of the preceding trading period.
max: Selects the largest value among the three calculations to account for gaps and limit movements.
🔶 2. Buying Pressure (BP) Calculation
Buying Pressure (BP) quantifies the extent to which buyers are driving the price upwards within a period.
BP = Close - True Low
Close: Current period's closing price.
True Low: The lower boundary determined in the True Range calculation.
🔶 3. Ratio Calculation for Different Periods
To assess the strength of buying pressure relative to volatility, the strategy calculates a ratio over various Fibonacci-based timeframes.
Ratio = 100 * (Sum of BP over n periods) / (Sum of TR over n periods)
n: Length of the period (e.g., 8, 13, 21, 34, 55).
Sum of BP: Cumulative Buying Pressure over n periods.
Sum of TR: Cumulative True Range over n periods.
This ratio normalizes buying pressure, making it comparable across different timeframes.
🔶 4. Weighted Average Calculation
The strategy employs a weighted average of ratios from multiple Fibonacci-based periods to smooth out signals and enhance trend detection.
Weighted Avg = (w1 * Ratio_p1 + w2 * Ratio_p2 + w3 * Ratio_p3 + w4 * Ratio_p4 + Ratio_p5) / (w1 + w2 + w3 + w4 + 1)
w1, w2, w3, w4: Weights assigned to each ratio period.
Ratio_p1 to Ratio_p5: Ratios calculated for periods p1 to p5 (e.g., 8, 13, 21, 34, 55).
This weighted approach emphasizes shorter periods more heavily, capturing recent market dynamics while still considering longer-term trends.
🔶 5. Simple Moving Average (SMA) of Weighted Average
To further smooth the weighted average and reduce noise, a Simple Moving Average (SMA) is applied.
Weighted Avg SMA = SMA(Weighted Avg, m)
- m: SMA period (e.g., 3).
This smoothed line serves as the primary signal generator for trade entries and exits.
🔶 6. Trading Condition Thresholds
The strategy defines specific threshold values to determine optimal entry and exit points based on crossovers and crossunders of the SMA.
Long Condition = Crossover(Weighted Avg SMA, Long Entry Threshold)
Short Condition = Crossunder(Weighted Avg SMA, Short Entry Threshold)
Long Exit = Crossunder(Weighted Avg SMA, Long Exit Threshold)
Short Exit = Crossover(Weighted Avg SMA, Short Exit Threshold)
Long Entry Threshold (T_LE): Level at which a long position is triggered.
Short Entry Threshold (T_SE): Level at which a short position is triggered.
Long Exit Threshold (T_LX): Level at which a long position is exited.
Short Exit Threshold (T_SX): Level at which a short position is exited.
These conditions ensure that trades are only executed when clear trends are identified, enhancing the strategy's reliability.
Previous local performance
🔶 7. ATR-Based Take Profit Mechanism
When enabled, the strategy employs a 4-step Take Profit system to systematically secure profits as the trade moves in the desired direction.
TP Price_1 Long = Entry Price + (TP1ATR * ATR Value)
TP Price_2 Long = Entry Price + (TP2ATR * ATR Value)
TP Price_3 Long = Entry Price + (TP3ATR * ATR Value)
TP Price_1 Short = Entry Price - (TP1ATR * ATR Value)
TP Price_2 Short = Entry Price - (TP2ATR * ATR Value)
TP Price_3 Short = Entry Price - (TP3ATR * ATR Value)
- ATR Value: Calculated using ATR over a specified period (e.g., 14).
- TPxATR: User-defined multipliers for each take profit level.
- TPx_percent: Percentage of the position to exit at each TP level.
This multi-tiered exit strategy allows for partial position closures, optimizing profit capture while maintaining exposure to potential further gains.
█ Trade Direction
The Fibonacci ATR Fusion Strategy is designed to operate in both long and short market conditions, providing flexibility to traders in varying market environments.
Long Trades: Initiated when the SMA of the weighted average crosses above the Long Entry Threshold (T_LE), indicating strong upward momentum.
Short Trades: Initiated when the SMA of the weighted average crosses below the Short Entry Threshold (T_SE), signaling robust downward momentum.
Additionally, the strategy can be configured to trade exclusively in one direction—Long, Short, or Both—based on the trader’s preference and market analysis.
█ Usage
Implementing the Fibonacci ATR Fusion Strategy involves several steps to ensure it aligns with your trading objectives and market conditions.
1. Configure Strategy Parameters:
- Trading Direction: Choose between Long, Short, or Both based on your market outlook.
- Trading Condition Thresholds: Set the Long Entry, Short Entry, Long Exit, and Short Exit thresholds to define when to enter and exit trades.
2. Set Take Profit Levels (if enabled):
- ATR Multipliers: Define how many ATRs away from the entry price each take profit level is set.
- Take Profit Percentages: Allocate what percentage of the position to close at each TP level.
3. Apply to Desired Chart:
- Add the strategy to the chart of the asset you wish to trade.
- Observe the plotted Fibonacci ATR and SMA Fibonacci ATR indicators for visual confirmation.
4. Monitor and Adjust:
- Regularly review the strategy’s performance through backtesting.
- Adjust the input parameters based on historical performance and changing market dynamics.
5. Risk Management:
- Ensure that the sum of take profit percentages does not exceed 100% to avoid over-closing positions.
- Utilize the ATR-based TP levels to adapt to varying market volatilities, maintaining a balanced risk-reward ratio.
█ Default Settings
Understanding the default settings is crucial for optimizing the Fibonacci ATR Fusion Strategy's performance. Here's a precise and simple overview of the key parameters and their effects:
🔶 Key Parameters and Their Effects
1. Trading Direction (`tradingDirection`)
- Default: Both
- Effect: Determines whether the strategy takes both long and short positions or restricts to one direction. Selecting Both allows maximum flexibility, while Long or Short can be used for directional bias.
2. Trading Condition Thresholds
Long Entry (long_entry_threshold = 58.0): Higher values reduce false positives but may miss trades.
Short Entry (short_entry_threshold = 42.0): Lower values capture early short trends but may increase false signals.
Long Exit (long_exit_threshold = 42.0): Exits long positions early, securing profits but potentially cutting trends short.
Short Exit (short_exit_threshold = 58.0): Delays short exits to capture favorable movements, avoiding premature exits.
3. Take Profit Configuration (`useTakeProfit` = false)
- Effect: When enabled, the strategy employs a 4-step TP mechanism to secure profits at multiple levels. By default, it is disabled to allow users to opt-in based on their trading style.
4. ATR-Based Take Profit Multipliers
TP1 (tp1ATR = 3.0): Sets the first TP at 3 ATRs for initial profit capture.
TP2 (tp2ATR = 8.0): Targets larger trends, though less likely to be reached.
TP3 (tp3ATR = 14.0): Optimizes for extreme price moves, seldom triggered.
5. Take Profit Percentages
TP Level 1 (tp1_percent = 12%): Secures 12% at the first TP.
TP Level 2 (tp2_percent = 12%): Exits another 12% at the second TP.
TP Level 3 (tp3_percent = 12%): Closes an additional 12% at the third TP.
6. Weighted Average Parameters
Ratio Periods: Fibonacci-based intervals (8, 13, 21, 34, 55) balance responsiveness.
Weights: Emphasizes recent data for timely responses to market trends.
SMA Period (weighted_avg_sma_period = 3): Smoothens data with minimal lag, balancing noise reduction and responsiveness.
7. ATR Period (`atrPeriod` = 14)
Effect: Sets the ATR calculation length, impacting TP sensitivity to volatility.
🔶 Impact on Performance
- Sensitivity and Responsiveness:
- Shorter Ratio Periods and Higher Weights: Make the weighted average more responsive to recent price changes, allowing quicker trade entries and exits but increasing the likelihood of false signals.
- Longer Ratio Periods and Lower Weights: Provide smoother signals with fewer false positives but may delay trade entries, potentially missing out on significant price moves.
- Profit Taking:
- ATR Multipliers: Higher multipliers set take profit levels further away, targeting larger price movements but reducing the probability of reaching these levels.
- Fixed Percentages: Allocating equal percentages at each TP level ensures consistent profit realization and risk management, preventing overexposure.
- Trade Direction Control:
- Selecting Specific Directions: Restricting trades to Long or Short can align the strategy with market trends or personal biases, potentially enhancing performance in trending markets.
- Risk Management:
- Take Profit Percentages: Dividing the position into smaller percentages at multiple TP levels helps lock in profits progressively, reducing risk and allowing the remaining position to ride further trends.
- Market Adaptability:
- Weighted Averages and ATR: By combining multiple timeframes and adjusting to volatility, the strategy adapts to different market conditions, maintaining effectiveness across various asset classes and timeframes.

Stage-Specific Signal Generation
A distinctive feature of this trading strategy is its focus on generating long signals exclusively during Stage 2 uptrends and short signals during Stage 4 downtrends. This approach is based on the widely recognized market cycle theory, which divides the market into four stages: Stage 1 (accumulation), Stage 2 (uptrend), Stage 3 (distribution), and Stage 4 (downtrend). By aligning the signal generation with these specific stages, the strategy aims to capitalize on the most dynamic and clear-cut market movements, thereby enhancing the potential for profitable trades.
1. Long Signals in Stage 2 Uptrends
• Characteristics of Stage 2: Stage 2 is characterized by a strong uptrend, where prices are consistently rising. This stage typically follows a period of accumulation (Stage 1) and is marked by increased investor interest and bullish sentiment in the market.
• Criteria for Long Signal Generation: Long signals are generated during this stage when the technical indicators align with the characteristics of a Stage 2 uptrend.
• Rationale for Stage-Specific Signals: By focusing on Stage 2 for long trades, the strategy seeks to enter positions during the phase of strong upward momentum, thus riding the wave of rising prices and investor optimism. This stage-specific approach minimizes exposure to less predictable market phases, like the consolidation in Stage 1 or the indecision in Stage 3.
2. Short Signals in Stage 4 Downtrends
• Characteristics of Stage 4: Stage 4 is identified by a pronounced downtrend, with declining prices indicating prevailing bearish sentiment. This stage typically follows the distribution phase (Stage 3) and is characterized by increasing selling pressure.
• Criteria for Short Signal Generation: Short signals are generated in this stage when the indicators reflect a strong bearish trend.
• Rationale for Stage-Specific Signals: Targeting Stage 4 for shorting capitalizes on the market's downward momentum. This tactic aligns with the natural market cycle, allowing traders to exploit the downward price movements effectively. By doing so, the strategy avoids the potential pitfalls of shorting during the early or late stages of the market cycle, where trends are less defined and more susceptible to reversals.
In conclusion, the strategy’s emphasis on stage-specific signal generation is a testament to its sophisticated understanding of market dynamics. By tailoring the long and short signals to Stages 2 and 4, respectively, it leverages the most compelling phases of the market cycle, offering traders a clear and structured approach to aligning their trades with dominant market trends.
Strategy Overview
At the heart of this trading strategy is a philosophy centered around capturing market momentum and trend efficiency. The core objective is to identify and capitalize on clear uptrends and downtrends, thereby allowing traders to position themselves in sync with the market's prevailing direction. This approach is grounded in the belief that aligning trades with these dominant market forces can lead to more consistent and profitable outcomes.
The strategy is built on three foundational components, each playing a critical role in the decision-making process:
1. Momentum-RSI (Relative Strength Index): The Momentum-RSI is a pivotal element of this strategy. It's an enhanced version of the traditional RSI, fine-tuned to better capture the strength and velocity of market trends. By measuring the speed and change of price movements, the Momentum-RSI provides invaluable insights into whether a market is potentially overbought or oversold, suggesting possible entry and exit points. This indicator is especially effective in filtering out noise and focusing on substantial market moves.
2. EMA (Exponential Moving Average) Crossover: The EMA Crossover is a crucial component for trend identification. This strategy employs two EMAs with different timeframes to determine the market trend. When the shorter-term EMA crosses above the longer-term EMA, it signals an emerging uptrend, suggesting a potential long entry. Conversely, a crossover below indicates a possible downtrend, hinting at a short entry opportunity. This simple yet powerful tool is key in confirming trend directions and timing market entries.
3. ATR (Average True Range): The ATR is instrumental in assessing market volatility. This indicator helps in understanding the average range of price movements over a given period, thus providing a sense of how much a market might move on a typical day. In this strategy, the ATR is used to adjust stop-loss levels and to gauge the potential risk and reward of trades. It allows for more informed decisions by aligning trade management techniques with the current volatility conditions.
The synergy of these three components – the Momentum-RSI, EMA Crossover, and ATR – creates a robust framework for this trading strategy. By combining momentum analysis, trend identification, and volatility assessment, the strategy offers a comprehensive approach to navigating the markets. Whether it's capturing a strong trend in its early stages or identifying a potential reversal, this strategy aims to provide traders with the tools and insights needed to make well-informed, strategically sound trading decisions.
Detailed Component Analysis
The efficacy of this trading strategy hinges on the synergistic functioning of its three key components: the Momentum-RSI, EMA Crossover, and Average True Range (ATR). Each component brings a unique perspective to the strategy, contributing to a well-rounded approach to market analysis.
1. Momentum-RSI (Relative Strength Index)
• Definition and Function: The Momentum-RSI is a modified version of the classic Relative Strength Index. While the traditional RSI measures the velocity and magnitude of directional price movements, the Momentum-RSI amplifies aspects that reflect trend strength and momentum.
• Significance in Identifying Trend Strength: This indicator excels in identifying the strength behind a market's move. A high Momentum-RSI value typically indicates strong bullish momentum, suggesting the potential continuation of an uptrend. Conversely, a low Momentum-RSI value signals strong bearish momentum, possibly indicative of an ongoing downtrend.
• Application in Strategy: In this strategy, the Momentum-RSI is used to gauge the underlying strength of market trends. It helps in filtering out minor fluctuations and focusing on significant movements, providing a clearer picture of the market's true momentum.
2. EMA (Exponential Moving Average) Crossover
• Definition and Function: The EMA Crossover component utilizes two exponential moving averages of different timeframes. Unlike simple moving averages, EMAs give more weight to recent prices, making them more responsive to new information.
• Contribution to Market Direction: The interaction between the short-term and long-term EMAs is key to determining market direction. A crossover of the shorter EMA above the longer EMA is an indicator of an emerging uptrend, while a crossover below signals a developing downtrend.
• Application in Strategy: The EMA Crossover serves as a trend confirmation tool. It provides a clear, visual representation of the market's direction, aiding in the decision-making process for entering long or short positions. This component ensures that trades are aligned with the prevailing market trend, a crucial factor for the success of the strategy.
3. ATR (Average True Range)
• Definition and Function: The ATR is an indicator that measures market volatility by calculating the average range between the high and low prices over a specified period.
• Role in Assessing Market Volatility: The ATR provides insights into the typical market movement within a given timeframe, offering a measure of the market's volatility. Higher ATR values indicate increased volatility, while lower values suggest a calmer market environment.
• Application in Strategy: Within this strategy, the ATR is instrumental in tailoring risk management techniques, particularly in setting stop-loss levels. By accounting for the market's volatility, the ATR ensures that stop-loss orders are placed at levels that are neither too tight (risking premature exits) nor too loose (exposing to excessive risk).
In summary, the combination of Momentum-RSI, EMA Crossover, and ATR in this trading strategy provides a comprehensive toolkit for market analysis. The Momentum-RSI identifies the strength of market trends, the EMA Crossover confirms the market direction, and the ATR guides in risk management by assessing volatility. Together, these components form the backbone of a strategy designed to navigate the complexities of the financial markets effectively.
1. Signal Generation Process
• Combining Indicators: The strategy operates by synthesizing signals from the Momentum-RSI, EMA Crossover, and ATR indicators. Each indicator serves a specific purpose: the Momentum-RSI gauges trend momentum, the EMA Crossover identifies the trend direction, and the ATR assesses the market’s volatility.
• Criteria for Signal Validation: For a signal to be considered valid, it must meet specific criteria set by each of the three indicators. This multi-layered approach ensures that signals are not only based on one aspect of market behavior but are a result of a comprehensive analysis.
2. Conditions for Long Positions
• Uptrend Confirmation: A long position signal is generated when the shorter-term EMA crosses above the longer-term EMA, indicating an uptrend.
• Momentum-RSI Alignment: Alongside the EMA crossover, the Momentum-RSI should indicate strong bullish momentum. This is typically represented by the Momentum-RSI being at a high level, confirming the strength of the uptrend.
• ATR Consideration: The ATR is used to fine-tune the entry point and set an appropriate stop-loss level. In a low volatility scenario, as indicated by the ATR, the stop-loss can be set tighter, closer to the entry point.
3. Conditions for Short Positions
• Downtrend Confirmation: Conversely, a short position signal is indicated when the shorter-term EMA crosses below the longer-term EMA, signaling a downtrend.
• Momentum-RSI Confirmation: The Momentum-RSI should reflect strong bearish momentum, usually seen when the Momentum-RSI is at a low level. This confirms the bearish strength of the market.
• ATR Application: The ATR again plays a role in determining the stop-loss level for the short position. Higher volatility, as indicated by a higher ATR, would warrant a wider stop-loss to accommodate larger market swings.
By adhering to these mechanics, the strategy aims to ensure that each trade is entered with a high probability of success, aligning with the market’s current momentum and trend. The integration of these indicators allows for a holistic market analysis, providing traders with clear and actionable signals for both entering and exiting trades.
Customizable Parameters in the Strategy
Flexibility and adaptability are key features of this trading strategy, achieved through a range of customizable parameters. These parameters allow traders to tailor the strategy to their individual trading style, risk tolerance, and specific market conditions. By adjusting these parameters, users can fine-tune the strategy to optimize its performance and align it with their unique trading objectives. Below are the primary parameters that can be customized within the strategy:
1. Momentum-RSI Settings
• Period: The lookback period for the Momentum-RSI can be adjusted. A shorter period makes the indicator more sensitive to recent price changes, while a longer period smoothens the RSI line, offering a broader view of the momentum.
• Overbought/Oversold Thresholds: Users can set their own overbought and oversold levels, which can help in identifying extreme market conditions more precisely according to their trading approach.
2. EMA Crossover Settings
• Timeframes for EMAs: The strategy uses two EMAs with different timeframes. Traders can modify these timeframes, choosing shorter periods for a more responsive approach or longer periods for a more conservative one.
• Source Data: The choice of price data (close, open, high, low) used in calculating the EMAs can be varied depending on the trader’s preference.
3. ATR Settings
• Lookback Period: Adjusting the lookback period for the ATR impacts how the indicator measures volatility. A longer period may provide a more stable but less responsive measure, while a shorter period offers quicker but potentially more erratic readings.
• Multiplier for Stop-Loss Calculation: This parameter allows traders to set how aggressively or conservatively they want their stop-loss to be in relation to the ATR value.
Here are the standard settings:
WRAMA Channel (Weighted RSI ATR MA)OVERVIEW
The WRAMA Channel (Weighted RSI ATR MA) is an advanced technical analysis tool designed to react more quickly to price movements compared to indicators using conventional moving averages. It combines the Relative Strength Index (RSI), Average True Range (ATR), and a weighted moving average, resulting in the WRAMA. This indicator forms a dynamic price channel based on a weighted average that incorporates both trend strength (via RSI) and market volatility (via ATR). It helps traders identify trends, potential reversals, and breakout signals, while offering broad customization options.
Key Features
WRAMA Price Channel:
Generates a dynamic channel around the weighted moving average (WRAMA), adapting to market volatility and momentum, similar to Bollinger Bands. Users are encouraged to adjust channel width and length according to their strategy.
The upper and lower channel bands are calculated based on a percentage deviation from the baseline line.
The channel fill color changes depending on the price's position relative to the baseline (green above, red below), with an optional gradient for better visualization.
Weighted Moving Average (WRAMA):
WRAMA is a custom weighted moving average (MA1), where closing prices are weighted based on RSI and ATR, allowing it to dynamically adapt to market conditions.
Baseline: The WRAMA line calculated over a user-defined period.
WRAMA Calculation:
RSI Weight: Based on RSI value. When RSI is in extreme zones (below the lower threshold or above the upper threshold), an extreme weight is applied. Otherwise, the weight is based on the squared RSI value divided by 100, raised to a power defined by the rsi_weight_factor.
ATR Weight: Based on the ATR-to-average-ATR ratio. If ATR exceeds a threshold (atr_threshold × avg_atr), an extreme weight is applied. Otherwise, the weight is based on the squared ratio of ATR to average ATR, raised to the power of the atr_weight_factor.
Combined Weight: RSI and ATR weights are combined using a rsi_atr_balance parameter. Final weight = RSI weight × balance + ATR weight × (1 - balance).
WRAMA Calculation: The closing price is multiplied by the combined weight. The result is averaged over the ma_length period and divided by the average of the weights, forming the WRAMA line. For current WRAMA (ma_length = 1), the calculation simplifies to a single weighted price.
Additional Moving Averages:
For additional confirmations, the indicator supports up to five moving averages (MA1–MA5) with various types (SMA, EMA, WMA, HMA, ALMA) and customizable periods.
All additional MAs are calculated based on WRAMA or its baseline, ensuring consistency and enabling deeper analysis within a unified methodology. MA trend directions can be tracked in a built-in signal table.
Trading Signals:
Breakout Signals: Breakouts above/below the channel are optionally marked with triangle shapes (green for bullish, red for bearish).
MA Signals: Price position relative to MAs or their slope generates bullish/bearish signals. These are optionally visualized with default triangles (green up, red down).
A signal table in the top-right corner summarizes the status of each moving average – bullish, bearish, or neutral.

Lsma ATR | viResearchLsma ATR | viResearch
Conceptual Foundation and Innovation
The "Lsma ATR" indicator from viResearch combines the power of the Least Squares Moving Average (LSMA) with the Average True Range (ATR) to offer traders a dynamic approach to trend analysis and volatility management. The LSMA is highly regarded for its ability to fit a linear regression line to price data, providing a smooth and precise trend line with minimal lag. When paired with the ATR, which measures market volatility, this indicator not only tracks trend direction but also adapts to changes in volatility. The integration of both elements allows traders to identify potential trend reversals and assess the strength of trends in the context of market volatility. This combination makes the "Lsma ATR" a versatile tool for following trends while managing risk, as it responds quickly to changes in price direction while accounting for shifts in market volatility.
Technical Composition and Calculation
The "Lsma ATR" script consists of two primary components: the Least Squares Moving Average (LSMA) and the Average True Range (ATR). The LSMA is calculated over a user-defined length, providing a smoothed representation of the market trend based on linear regression. The ATR, also user-defined, is used to measure market volatility by calculating the average range between high and low prices over a specified period. By adding and subtracting the ATR from the LSMA, the indicator creates upper and lower boundaries that help define the market's current volatility-adjusted range. The script monitors for price crossovers with these boundaries to generate trend signals. When the price crosses above the upper boundary, it signals a potential upward trend. Conversely, when the price crosses below the lower boundary, it signals a possible downward trend. These boundaries dynamically adjust based on volatility, providing more accurate signals as market conditions change.
Features and User Inputs
The "Lsma ATR" script offers several customizable inputs, allowing traders to fine-tune the indicator to their trading preferences. The LSMA Length controls the lookback period for the LSMA, determining how smooth or responsive the trend line is. The ATR Length defines the period used for calculating the average volatility, affecting the width of the volatility-adjusted range. Additionally, the indicator includes alert conditions that notify traders when a trend shift occurs, either to the upside or downside.
Practical Applications
The "Lsma ATR" indicator is designed for traders who want to follow market trends while accounting for changes in volatility. The LSMA provides a clear, smoothed trend line that helps identify the direction of the market, while the ATR adjusts the boundaries based on the current volatility level. This combination makes the indicator particularly effective for detecting trend reversals, as the LSMA tracks the overall trend direction and price crossovers with the ATR boundaries provide early signals of potential trend changes. It also helps manage risk by understanding market volatility, allowing traders to adjust their strategies based on the strength of price movements. The indicator improves trend-following strategies by combining LSMA’s trend detection with ATR’s volatility adjustment, offering a nuanced approach in various market conditions.
Advantages and Strategic Value
The "Lsma ATR" script offers significant value by integrating the precision of the LSMA with the adaptability of the ATR. This dual approach allows traders to reduce noise in price data while responding to changes in volatility, leading to more accurate trend signals. The volatility-adjusted boundaries provide a dynamic range that helps traders avoid false signals and stay aligned with stronger trends. This makes the "Lsma ATR" an ideal tool for traders seeking to enhance their trend-following strategies while accounting for market volatility.
Alerts and Visual Cues
The script includes alert conditions that notify traders when the price crosses the ATR boundaries, signaling a potential trend change. The "Lsma ATR Long" alert is triggered when the price crosses above the upper boundary, indicating a potential upward trend, while the "Lsma ATR Short" alert signals a possible downward trend when the price crosses below the lower boundary. Visual cues, such as changes in the color of the LSMA line and shaded areas between the ATR boundaries, help traders quickly identify these trend shifts.
Summary and Usage Tips

ADR/ATR Session No Probability Table by LKHere you go—clear, English docs you can drop into your script’s description or share with teammates.
ADR/ATR Session by LK — Overview
This indicator summarizes Average Daily Range (ADR) and Average True Range (ATR) for two horizons:
• Session H4 (e.g., 06:00–13:00 on a 4‑hour chart)
• Daily (D)
It shows:
• Current ADR/ATR values (using your chosen smoothing method)
• How much of ADR/ATR today/this bar has already been consumed (% of ADR/ATR)
• ADR/ATR as a percent of price
• Optional probability blocks: likelihood that %ADR will exceed user‑defined thresholds over a lookback window
• Optional on‑chart lines for the current H4 and Daily candles: Open, ADR High, ADR Low
⸻
What the metrics mean
• ADR (H4 / D): Moving average of the bar range (high - low).
• ATR (H4 / D): Moving average of True Range (max(hi-lo, |hi-close |, |lo-close |)).
• % of ADR (curr H4): (H4 range of the current H4 bar) / ADR(H4) × 100. Updates live even if the current time is outside the session.
• % of ADR (Daily): (today’s intra‑day range) / ADR(D) × 100.
• % of ATR (curr H4 / Daily): TR / ATR × 100 for that horizon.
• ADR % of Price / ATR % of Price: ADR or ATR divided by current price × 100 (a quick “volatility vs. price” gauge).
Session logic (H4): ADR/ATR(H4) only update on bars that fall inside the configured session window; outside the window the values hold steady (no recalculation “bleed”).
Daily range tracking: The indicator tracks today’s high/low in real‑time and resets at the day change.
⸻
Inputs (quick reference)
Core
• Length (ADR/ATR): smoothing length for ADR/ATR (default 21).
• Wait for Higher TF Bar Close: if true, updates ADR/ATR only after the higher‑TF bar closes when using request.security.
Timeframes
• Session Timeframe (H4): default 240.
• Daily Timeframe: default D.
Session time
• Session Timezone: “Chart” (default) or a fixed timezone.
• Session Start Hour, End Hour (minutes are fixed to 0 in this version).
Smoothing methods
• H4 ADR Method / H4 ATR Method: SMA/EMA/RMA/WMA.
• Daily ADR Method / Daily ATR Method: SMA/EMA/RMA/WMA.
Table appearance
• Table BG, Table Text, Table Font Size.
Lines (optional)
• Show current H4 segments, Show current Daily segments
• Line colors for Open / ADR High / ADR Low
• Line width
Probability
• H4 Probability Lookback (bars): number of H4 bars to examine (e.g., 300).
• Daily Probability Lookback (days): number of D bars (e.g., 180).
• ADR thresholds (%): CSV list of thresholds (e.g., 25,50,55,60,65,70,75,80,85,90,95,100,125,150).
The table will show the % of lookback bars where %ADR ≥ threshold.
Tip: If you want probabilities only for session H4 bars (not every H4 bar), ask and I can add a toggle to filter by inSess.
⸻
How to read the table
H4 block
• ADR (method) / ATR (method): the session‑aware averages.
• % of ADR (curr H4): live progress of this H4 bar toward the session ADR.
• ADR % of Price: ADR(H4) relative to price.
• % of ATR (curr H4) and ATR % of Price: same idea for ATR.
H4 Probability (lookback N bars)
• Rows like “≥ 80% ADR” show the fraction (in %) of the last N H4 bars that reached at least 80% of ADR(H4).
Daily block
• Mirrors the H4 block, but for Daily.
Daily Probability (lookback M days)
• Rows like “≥ 100% ADR” show the fraction of the last M daily bars whose daily range reached at least 100% of ADR(D).
⸻
Practical usage
• Use % of ADR (curr H4 / Daily) to judge exhaustion or room left in the day/session.
E.g., if Daily %ADR is already 95%, be cautious with momentum continuation trades.
• The probability tables give a quick historical context:
If “≥ 125% ADR” is ~18%, the market rarely stretches that far; your trade sizing/targets can reflect that.
• ADR/ATR % of Price helps normalize volatility between instruments.
⸻
Troubleshooting
• If probability rows are blank: ensure lookback windows are large enough (and that the chart has enough history).
• If ADR/ATR show … (NA): usually you don’t have enough bars for the chosen length/TF yet.
• If line segments are missing: verify you’re on a chart with visible current H4/D bars and the toggles are enabled.
⸻
Notes & customization ideas
• Add a toggle to count only session bars in H4 probability.
• Add separate thresholds for H4 vs Daily.
• Let users pick minutes for session start/end if needed.
• Add alerts when %ADR crosses specified thresholds.
If you want me to bundle any of the “ideas” above into the code, say the word and I’ll ship a clean patch.
Liquidity Analysis with Volume, ATR, and Chaikin Oscillator
Script Name: Liquidity Analysis with Volume, ATR, and Chaikin Oscillator
Description: This script analyzes market liquidity using three key indicators: Volume, ATR (Average True Range), and the Chaikin Oscillator. Based on the combination of these indicators, the script identifies three market conditions and visually highlights them with background colors:
High Liquidity Uptrend (Green Background):
Occurs when volume is high, ATR is above the threshold, and the Chaikin Oscillator is positive. This indicates strong liquidity with an upward trend in the market.
Alert: "High Liquidity Uptrend detected."
High Liquidity Downtrend (Red Background):
Occurs when volume is high, ATR is above the threshold, and the Chaikin Oscillator is negative. This signals strong liquidity but with a downward market trend.
Alert: "High Liquidity Downtrend detected."
Low Liquidity Stagnant Market (Yellow Background):
Occurs when volume is low, and ATR is below the threshold. This suggests a market with low liquidity and minimal price movement, indicating a range or stagnant phase.
Alert: "Low Liquidity Stagnant market detected."
Input Settings Panel:
Volume Threshold: This value sets the minimum volume required to determine high liquidity. If the volume is above this value, it is considered "high volume."
ATR Length: Defines the number of periods used to calculate ATR. The higher the value, the more smoothed the ATR calculation.
ATR Threshold: This sets the minimum ATR value required to signal a market with significant volatility. If ATR is above this value, the market is considered to have high volatility.
These settings allow you to fine-tune the script based on the characteristics of the asset being analyzed.

Trend CCITrend CCI (TCCI) Indicator
Description:
The Trend CCI (TCCI) indicator is a unique combination of the Commodity Channel Index (CCI) and the Average True Range (ATR), designed to identify trends and market reversals with a refined sensitivity to price volatility. The indicator plots the CCI, adjusted by an ATR filter, and color-codes the trendline to signal uptrends and downtrends.
How It Works:
This indicator uses the CCI to measure price momentum and an ATR-based filter to smooth out market noise, making it easier to detect significant shifts in the market trend. Key parameters such as the ATR Period, ATR Multiplier, and CCI Period have been carefully chosen to optimize the indicator's performance:
1. ATR Period (default: 18)
The ATR Period determines the number of periods used to calculate the **Average True Range**, which reflects market volatility. In this case, an **ATR Period of 18** has been selected for several reasons:
Balance between responsiveness and noise reduction : A period of 18 strikes a balance between being responsive to recent price movements and filtering out minor fluctuations. Shorter ATR periods might be too reactive, creating false signals, while longer periods might miss shorter-term trends.
Adaptable to various market conditions : An 18-period ATR is suitable for both intraday and swing trading strategies, making it versatile across different time frames.
Standard industry practice : Many traders use ATR settings between 14 and 20 periods as a convention for detecting reliable volatility levels.
2. ATR Multiplier (default: 1.5)
The ATR Multiplier is applied to the ATR value to define how sensitive the indicator is to volatility. In this case, a multiplier of 1.5 has been chosen:
Avoiding whipsaws in low volatility markets: By setting the multiplier to 1.5, the indicator filters out smaller, less significant price movements, reducing the likelihood of whipsaw signals (i.e., false trend reversals during periods of low volatility).
Optimizing signal accuracy: A moderate multiplier like 1.5 ensures that the indicator only generates signals when the price moves a significant distance from the average range. Higher multipliers (e.g., 2.0) may ignore valid opportunities, while lower multipliers (e.g., 1.0) might create too many signals.
Enhancing trend clarity : The multiplier’s role in widening the range allows the indicator to respond more clearly during periods of strong trends, reducing signal noise and false positives.
3. CCI Period (default: 63)
The CCI Period defines the number of periods used to calculate the Commodity Channel Index. A 63-period CCI is selected based on the following considerations:
Smoothing the momentum calculation: A longer period, such as 63, is used to smooth out the CCI and reduce the effects of short-term price fluctuations. This period captures longer-term momentum, making it ideal for identifying more significant market trends.
-Filtering out short-term noise: While shorter CCI periods (e.g., 14 or 20) may be more reactive, they tend to produce more signals, some of which may be false. A 63-period CCI focuses on stronger and more sustained price movements, providing fewer but higher-quality signals.
Adapted to intermediate trading: A 63-period CCI aligns well with traders looking for medium-term trend-following strategies, striking a balance between long-term trend identification and responsiveness to significant price shifts.
How to Use:
Green Area: When the trendline turns green, it signals that the CCI is positive, reflecting upward momentum. This can be interpreted as a buy signal, indicating the potential for long positions or continuing bullish trades.
Red Area: When the trendline turns red, it signals that the CCI is negative, reflecting downward momentum. This can be interpreted as a sell signal, indicating potential short positions or bearish trades.
ATR Filter: The ATR helps reduce false signals by ignoring minor price movements. Traders can adjust the ATR Multiplier to make the indicator more or less sensitive based on market conditions. A lower multiplier (e.g., 1.2) may increase signal frequency, while a higher multiplier (e.g., 2.0) reduces it.
Originality:
The Trend CCI (TCCI) stands out due to its combination of the CCI and ATR. While many indicators simply plot raw CCI values, this script enhances the CCI’s effectiveness by incorporating an ATR-based volatility filter. This ensures that only significant trends trigger signals, making it a more reliable tool in volatile markets. The choice of the ATR period, multiplier, and CCI period ensures a refined balance between trend detection and noise reduction, distinguishing it as a powerful trend-following indicator.
Additionally, the visual aspect—using color-coded trendlines that dynamically shift between green and red—simplifies the interpretation of market trends, offering traders a clear and immediate understanding of trend direction and momentum strength.
Final Recommendations:
Use in Trending Markets The TCCI is most effective in trending markets, where its signals align with broader market momentum. In sideways or low-volatility markets, consider adjusting the ATR multiplier or using other complementary indicators to confirm the signals.
Risk Management: Always integrate robust risk management practices, such as using stop-loss orders and position sizing, to protect against sudden market reversals or periods of heightened volatility.
Adjust for Volatility: Consider the volatility of the asset being traded. In highly volatile assets, a higher ATR multiplier (e.g., 2.0) may be necessary to filter out noise, while in more stable assets, a lower multiplier (e.g., 1.2) might generate earlier signals.
By using the Trend CCI (TCCI) indicator with a deeper understanding of its key parameters, traders can better identify trends, reduce noise, and improve their overall decision-making in the markets.

✅ VMA Avg ATR + Days to Targets 🎯1) The trend filter: LazyBear VMA
You implement the well‑known “LazyBear” Variable Moving Average (VMA) from price directional movement (pdm/mdm).
Internally you:
Smooth positive/negative one‑bar moves (pdmS, mdmS),
Turn them into relative strengths (pdiS, mdiS),
Measure their difference/total (iS), and
Normalize that over a rolling window to get a scaling factor vI.
The VMA itself is then an adaptive EMA:
vma := (1 - k*vI) * vma + (k*vI) * close, where k = 1/vmaLen.
When vI is larger, VMA hugs price more; when smaller, it smooths more.
Coloring:
Green when vma > vma (rising),
Red when vma < vma (falling),
White when flat.
Candles are recolored to match.
Why this matters: The VMA color is your trend regime; everything else in the script keys off changes in this color.
2) What counts as a “valid” new trend?
A new trend is valid only when the previous bar was white and the current bar turns green or red:
validTrendStart := vmaColor != color.white and vmaColor == color.white.
When that happens, you start a trend segment:
Save entry price (startPrice = close) and baseline ATR (startATR = ATR(atrLen)).
Reset “extreme” trackers: extremeHigh = high, extremeLow = low.
Timestamp the start (trendStartTime = time).
Effect: You only study / trade transitions out of a flat VMA into a slope. This helps avoid chop and reduces false starts.
3) While the trend is active
On each new bar without a color change:
If green trend: update extremeHigh = max(extremeHigh, high).
If red trend: update extremeLow = min(extremeLow, low).
This tracks the best excursion from the entry during that single trend leg.
4) When the VMA color changes (trend ends)
When vmaColor flips (green→red or red→green), you close the prior segment only if it was a valid trend (started after white). Then you:
Compute how far price traveled in ATR units from the start:
Uptrend ended: (extremeHigh - startPrice) / startATR
Downtrend ended: (startPrice - extremeLow) / startATR
Add that result to a running sum and count for the direction:
totalUp / countUp, totalDown / countDown.
Target checks for the ended trend (no look‑ahead):
T1 uses the previous average ATR move before the just‑ended trend (prevAvgUp/prevAvgDown).
Up: t1Up = startPrice + prevAvgUp * startATR
Down: t1Down = startPrice - prevAvgDown * startATR
T2 is a fixed 6× ATR move from the start (up or down).
You increment hit counters and also accumulate time‑to‑hit (ms from trendStartTime) for any target that got reached during that ended leg.
If T1 wasn’t reached, it counts as a miss.
Immediately initialize the next potential trend segment with the current bar’s startPrice/startATR/extremes and set validTrendStart according to the “white → color” rule.
Important detail: Using prevAvgUp/Down to evaluate T1 for the just‑completed trend avoids look‑ahead bias. The current trend’s performance isn’t used to set its own T1.
5) Running statistics & targets (for the current live trend)
After closing/adding to totals:
avgUp = totalUp / countUp and avgDown = totalDown / countDown are the historical average ATR move per valid trend for each direction.
Current plotted targets (only visible while a valid trend is active and in that direction):
T1 Up: startPrice + avgUp * startATR
T2 Up: startPrice + 6 * startATR
T1 Down: startPrice - avgDown * startATR
T2 Down: startPrice - 6 * startATR
The entry line is also plotted at startPrice when a valid trend is live.
If there’s no history yet (e.g., first trend), avgUp/avgDown are na, so T1 is na until at least one valid trend has closed. T2 still shows (6× ATR).
6) Win rate & time metrics
Win % (per direction):
winUp = hitUpT1 / (hitUpT1 + missUp) and similarly for down.
(This is strictly based on T1 hits vs misses; T2 hits don’t affect Win% directly.)
Average days to hit T1/T2:
The script stores milliseconds from trend start to each target hit, then reports the average in days separately for Up/Down and for T1/T2.
7) The dashboard table (bottom‑right)
It shows, side‑by‑side for Up/Down:
Avg ATR: historical average ATR move per completed valid trend.
🎯 Target 1 / Target 2: the current trend’s price levels (T1 = avgATR×ATR; T2 = 6×ATR).
✅ Win %: T1 hit rate so far.
⏱ Days to T1/T2: average days (from valid trend start) for the targets that were reached.
8) Alerts
“New Trend Detected” when a valid trend starts (white → green/red).
Target hits for the active trend:
Uptrend: separate alerts for T1 and T2 (high >= target).
Downtrend: separate alerts for T1 and T2 (low <= target).
9) Inputs & defaults
vmaLen = 17: governs how adaptive/smooth the VMA is (larger = smoother, fewer trend flips).
atrLen = 14: ATR baseline for sizing targets and normalizing moves.
10) Practical read of the plots
When you see white → green: that bar is your valid entry (trend start).
An Entry Line appears at the start price.
Target lines appear only for the active direction. T1 scales with your historical average ATR move; T2 is a fixed stretch (6× ATR).
The table updates as more trends complete, refining:
The average ATR reach (which resets your T1 sizing),
The win rate to T1, and
The average days it typically takes to hit T1/T2.
Subtle points / edge cases
No look‑ahead: T1 for a finished trend is checked against the prior average (not including the trend itself).
First trends: Until at least one valid trend completes, T1 is na (no history). T2 still shows.
Only “valid” trends are counted: Segments must start after a white bar; flips that happen color→color without a white in between don’t start a new valid trend.
Time math: Uses bar timestamps in ms, converted to days; results reflect the chart’s timeframe/market session.
TL;DR
The VMA color defines the regime; entries only trigger when a flat (white) VMA turns green/red.
Each trend’s max excursion from entry is recorded in ATR units.
T1 for current trends = (historical average ATR move) × current ATR from entry; T2 = 6× ATR.
The table shows your evolving edge (avg ATR reach, T1 win%, and days to targets), and alerts fire on new trends and target hits.
If you want, I can add optional features like: per‑ticker persistence of stats, excluding very short trends, or making T2 a user input instead of a fixed 6× ATR.
Chonky ATR Levels 2.0Show ATR based high/low projections.
Choose a custom ATR calculation in the indicator's settings.
The default is a 20day RMA based ATR.
----------How projections are calculated----------
To project the ATR High, the ATR value is added to the low of the current candle that matches the ATR's timeframe.
To project the ATR Low, the ATR value is subtracted from the high of the current candle that matches the ATR's timeframe.
Example:
If a 20day RMA ATR is used:
- the ATR High will be the current day's low + the ATR value.
- the ATR Low will be the current day's high - the ATR value.
*However*, if the price action exceeds either ATR projection, the opposite ATR level will be fixed to the extreme of the period.
See the AUDUSD screenshot above for an example.
The ATR Low was exceeded, so the ATR High projection is capped at the high of day.
If the ATR High is exceeded, the ATR Low would be capped at the low of day.

The indicator applies an Exponential Moving Average (EMA) to the filtered ATR, creating a dual-layered system that highlights periods of increased or decreased volatility.
Key Features:
Filtered ATR: Filters out extreme bars, reducing noise and making the ATR line more reliable.
EMA Overlay: An EMA (default period of 10) is applied to the filtered ATR, allowing traders to track average volatility trends.
Volatility Signals:
Filtered ATR > EMA(10): Indicates higher-than-average volatility. This often correlates with trend breakouts or strong price movements.
Filtered ATR < EMA(10): Suggests reduced volatility, signaling potential consolidation or sideways price action.
Parameters:
atrLength (Default: 5):
The number of bars used to calculate the ATR. A shorter period (e.g., 3-5) responds faster to price changes, while a longer period (e.g., 10-14) provides smoother results.
multiplier (Default: 1.8):
Controls the sensitivity of the filter. A lower multiplier (e.g., 1.5) filters out more bars, resulting in smoother ATR. Higher values (e.g., 2.0) allow more bars to pass through, retaining more price volatility.
maxIterations (Default: 20):
The maximum number of bars processed to detect abnormal values. Increasing this may improve accuracy at the cost of performance.
ema10Period (Default: 10):
The period for the Exponential Moving Average applied to the filtered ATR. Shorter periods provide faster signals, while longer periods give smoother, lagging signals.
Trading Strategies:
1. Breakout Strategy:
When filtered ATR crosses above EMA(10):
Enter long positions when price breaks above a key resistance level.
Higher volatility suggests strong price action and momentum.
When filtered ATR drops below EMA(10):
Exit positions or tighten stop-loss orders as volatility decreases.
Lower volatility may indicate consolidation or trend exhaustion.
2. Trend Following Strategy:
Use the filtered ATR line to track overall volatility.
If filtered ATR consistently stays above EMA: Hold positions or add to trades.
If filtered ATR remains below EMA: Reduce position size or stay out of trades.
3. Mean Reversion Strategy:
When filtered ATR spikes significantly above EMA, it may indicate market overreaction.
Look for price to revert to the mean once ATR returns below the EMA.
4. Stop-Loss Adjustment:
As volatility increases (ATR above EMA), widen stop-loss levels to avoid being stopped out by random fluctuations.
In low volatility (ATR below EMA), tighten stop-losses to minimize losses during low activity periods.
Benefits:
Reduced Noise: By filtering abnormal bars, the indicator provides cleaner signals.
Better Trend Detection: EMA smoothing highlights volatility trends.
Adaptable: The indicator can be customized for scalping, day trading, or swing trading.
Intuitive Visualization: Traders can visually see volatility shifts and adjust strategies in real-time.
Best Practices:
Timeframes: Works effectively on all timeframes, but higher timeframes (e.g., 1H, 4H, Daily) yield more reliable signals.
Markets: Suitable for forex, crypto, stocks, and commodities.
Combining Indicators: Use in combination with RSI, Moving Averages, Bollinger Bands, or price action analysis for stronger signals.
How It Works (Under the Hood):
The script calculates the Daily Range (High - Low) for each bar.
The largest and smallest bars are filtered out if their difference exceeds the multiplier (default 1.8).
The remaining bars are averaged to generate the filtered ATR.
An EMA(10) is then applied to the filtered ATR for smoother visualization.
DEMA Adjusted Average True Range [BackQuant]The use of the Double Exponential Moving Average (DEMA) within your Adjusted Average True Range (ATR) calculation serves as a cornerstone for enhancing the indicator's responsiveness to market changes. To delve deeper into why DEMA is employed specifically in the context of your ATR calculation, let's explore the inherent qualities of DEMA and its impact on the ATR's performance.
DEMA and Its Advantages
As previously mentioned, DEMA was designed to offer a more responsive alternative to the traditional Exponential Moving Average (EMA). By giving more weight to recent price data, DEMA reduces the lag typically associated with moving averages. This reduction in lag is especially beneficial for short-term traders looking to capitalize on trend reversals and other market movements as swiftly as possible.
The calculation of DEMA involves the following steps:
Calculate EMA1: This is the Exponential Moving Average of the price.
Calculate EMA2: This is the Exponential Moving Average of EMA1, thus it is a smoothing of a smoothing, leading to a greater lag.
Formulate DEMA: The formula
EMA1 = EMA of price
EMA2 = EMA of EMA1
DEMA = (2 x EMA1) - EMA2
effectively doubles the weighting of the most recent data points by subtracting the lagged, double-smoothed EMA2 from twice the single-smoothed EMA1.
This process enhances the moving average's sensitivity to recent price movements, allowing the DEMA to adhere more closely to the price bars than either EMA1 or EMA2 alone.
Integration with ATR
In the context of your ATR calculation, the integration of DEMA plays a crucial role in defining the indicator's core functionality. Here's a detailed explanation of how DEMA affects the ATR calculation:
Initial Determination of DEMA : By applying the DEMA formula to the chosen source data (which can be adjusted to use Heikin Ashi candle close prices for an even smoother analysis), you set a foundation for a more reactive trend-following mechanism within the ATR framework.
Application to ATR Bands : The calculated DEMA serves as the central line from which the ATR bands are derived. The ATR value, multiplied by a user-defined factor, is added to and subtracted from the DEMA to form the upper and lower bands, respectively. This dynamic adjustment not only reflects the volatility based on the ATR but does so in a way that is closely aligned with the most recent price action, thanks to the utilization of DEMA.
Enhanced Signal Quality : The responsiveness of DEMA ensures that the ATR bands adjust more promptly to changes in market conditions. This quality is vital for traders who rely on the ATR bands to identify potential entry and exit points, trend reversals, or to assess market volatility.
By employing DEMA as the core component in calculating the Adjusted Average True Range, your indicator leverages DEMA's reduced lag and increased weight on recent data to provide a more timely and accurate measure of market volatility. This innovative approach enhances the utility of the ATR by making it not only a tool for assessing volatility but also a more reactive indicator for trend analysis and trading signal generation.
The main concept of combining these is to reduce lag, get a more robust signal and still capture clear trends over medium time horizons.
For me, this is best used in confluence with other indicators, it can be made faster in order to get fasters response time, or slower. This is all depending on the needs of you as a trader.
User Inputs:
The script offers several user-configurable inputs, such as the period lengths for DEMA and ATR calculations, the multiplication factor for the ATR, and options to use Heikin Ashi candles or standard price data. Additionally, it allows for the toggling of visual features, like the plotting of the DEMA ATR and its moving average, and the application of color-coded trends on price bars.
Additional Features:
Moving Average Confluence: Traders can opt to display a moving average of the DEMA ATR, choosing from various types (e.g., SMA, EMA, HMA). This feature provides a layer of confluence, aiding in the identification of trend direction and strength.
Trend Identification :
The script employs logical conditions to ascertain the trend direction based on the movement of the DEMA ATR. It assigns colors to represent bullish or bearish trends, which are reflected in the plotted lines and the coloring of price bars.
Alerts :
Customizable alert conditions for trend reversals enhance the utility of the indicator for active trading, notifying users of significant changes in trend direction.
