Chimera [theUltimator5]In myth, the chimera is an “impossible” hybrid—lion, goat, and serpent fused into one—striking to look at and formidable in presence. The word has come to mean a beautiful, improbable union of parts that shouldn’t work together, yet do.
Chimera is a dual-mode market context tool that blends a multi-input oscillator with classic ADX/DI trend strength, plus optional multi-timeframe “gap-line” tracking. Use it to visualize regime (trend vs. range), momentum swings around an adaptive midline, and higher timeframe (HTF) reference levels that auto-terminate on touch/cross.
Modes
1) Oscillator view
A smoothed composite of five common inputs—RSI, MACD (oscillator), Bollinger position, Stochastic, and an ATR/DI-weighted bias. Each is normalized to a comparable 0–100 style scale, averaged, and plotted as a candle-style oscillator (short vs. long smoothing, wickless for clarity). A dynamic midline with standard-deviation bands frames neutral → bearish/bullish zones. Colors ramp from neutral to your chosen Oversold/Overbought endpoints; consolidation can override to white.
Here is a description of the (5) signals used to calculate the sentiment oscillator:
RSI (14): Measures recent momentum by comparing average gains vs. losses. High = strength after advances; low = weakness after declines. (Z-score normalized to 0–100.)
MACD oscillator (12/26/9): Uses the difference between MACD and its signal (histogram) to gauge momentum shifts. Positive = bullish tilt; negative = bearish. (Z-score normalized.)
Bollinger Bands position (20, 2): Locates price within the bands (0–100 from lower → upper). Near upper suggests strength/expansion; near lower suggests weakness/contraction. (Then normalized.)
Stochastic (14, 3, 3): Shows where the close sits within the recent high-low range, smoothed via %D. Higher values = closes near highs; lower = near lows. (Scaled 0–100.)
ATR/DI composite (14): Volatility-weighted directional bias: (+DI − −DI) amplified by ATR as a % of price and its relative average. Positive = bullish pressure with volatility; negative = bearish. (Rank/scale normalized.)
All five are normalized and averaged into one composite, then smoothed (short/long) and compared to an adaptive midline with bands.
2) ADX view
Shows ADX, +DI, –DI with user-defined High Threshold. Transparency and color shift with regime. When ADX is strong, a directional “fire/ice” gradient fills the area between ADX and the high threshold, biased toward the dominant DI; when ADX is weak, a soft white fade highlights low-trend conditions.
HTF gap-line tracking (optional; both modes)
Detects “gap-like” reference levels after weak-trend consolidation flips into a sudden DI jump.
Anchors a line at the event bar’s open and auto-terminates upon first touch/cross (tick-size tolerance).
Auto-selects up to three higher timeframes suited to your chart resolution and prints non-overlapping lines with labels like 1H / 4H / 1D. Lower-priority duplicates are suppressed to reduce clutter.
Confirmation / repaint notes
Signals and lines finalize on bar close of the relevant timeframe.
HTF elements update only on the HTF bar close. During a forming bar they may appear transiently.
Line removal finalizes after the bar that produced the touch/cross closes.
Visual cues & effects
Oscillator candles: Open/High = long smoothing; Low/Close = short smoothing (no wicks).
Adaptive bands: Midline ± StdDev Multiplier × stdev of the blended series.
Consolidation tint: Optional white backdrop/candles when the consolidation condition is true (balance + low ADX).
Breakout VFX (optional): With strong DI/ADX and Bollinger breaks, renders a subtle “fire” flare above upper-band thrusts or “ice” shelf below lower-band thrusts.
Inputs (high-level)
Visual Style: Oscillator or ADX.
General (Oscillator): Lookback Period, Short/Long Smoothing, Standard Deviation Multiplier.
Color (Oscillator): Oversold/Overbought colors for gradient endpoints.
Plot (Oscillator): Show Candles, Show Slow MA Line, Show Individual Component (RSI/MACD/BB/Stoch/ATR).
Table (Oscillator): Show Information Table & position (compact dashboard of component values + status).
ADX / Gaps / VFX (both modes): ADX High Threshold, Highlight Backgrounds, Show Gap Labels, Visual Overlay Effects, and color choices for current-TF & HTF lines.
HTF selection: Automatic ladder (3 tiers) based on your chart timeframe.
Alerts (built-in)
Buy Signal – Primary: Oscillator exits oversold.
Sell Signal – Primary: Oscillator exits overbought.
Gap Fill Line Created (Any TF)
Gap Fill Line Terminated (Any TF)
ADX Crossed ABOVE/BELOW Low Threshold
ADX Crossed ABOVE/BELOW High Threshold
Consolidation Started
Alerts evaluate on the close of the relevant timeframe.
How to read it (quick guide)
Pick your lens: Oscillator for blended momentum around an adaptive midline; ADX for trend strength and DI skew.
Watch extremes & mean re-entries (Oscillator): Approaches to the top/bottom band show persistent momentum; returns toward the midline show normalization.
Check regime (ADX): Below Low = low-trend; above High = strong trend, with “fire/ice” bias toward +DI/–DI.
Track gap lines: Fresh labels mark new reference levels; lines auto-remove on first interaction. HTF lines add context but finalize only on HTF close.
The uniqueness from this indicator comes from multiple areas:
1. A unique multi-timeframe algorithm detects gap fill zones and plots them on the chart.
2. Visual effects for both visual modes were hand crafted to provide a visually stunning and intuitive interface.
3. The algorithm to determine sentiment uses a unique blend of weight and sensitivity adjustment to create a plot with elastic upper and lower bounds based off historical volatility and price action.

Market Zone Analyzer[BullByte]Understanding the Market Zone Analyzer
---
1. Purpose of the Indicator
The Market Zone Analyzer is a Pine Script™ (version 6) indicator designed to streamline market analysis on TradingView. Rather than scanning multiple separate tools, it unifies four core dimensions—trend strength, momentum, price action, and market activity—into a single, consolidated view. By doing so, it helps traders:
• Save time by avoiding manual cross-referencing of disparate signals.
• Reduce decision-making errors that can arise from juggling multiple indicators.
• Gain a clear, reliable read on whether the market is in a bullish, bearish, or sideways phase, so they can more confidently decide to enter, exit, or hold a position.
---
2. Why a Trader Should Use It
• Unified View: Combines all essential market dimensions into one easy-to-read score and dashboard, eliminating the need to piece together signals manually.
• Adaptability: Automatically adjusts its internal weighting for trend, momentum, and price action based on current volatility. Whether markets are choppy or calm, the indicator remains relevant.
• Ease of Interpretation: Outputs a simple “BULLISH,” “BEARISH,” or “SIDEWAYS” label, supplemented by an intuitive on-chart dashboard and an oscillator plot that visually highlights market direction.
• Reliability Features: Built-in smoothing of the net score and hysteresis logic (requiring consecutive confirmations before flips) minimize false signals during noisy or range-bound phases.
---
3. Why These Specific Indicators?
This script relies on a curated set of well-established technical tools, each chosen for its particular strength in measuring one of the four core dimensions:
1. Trend Strength:
• ADX/DMI (Average Directional Index / Directional Movement Index): Measures how strong a trend is, and whether the +DI line is above the –DI line (bullish) or vice versa (bearish).
• Moving Average Slope (Fast MA vs. Slow MA): Compares a shorter-period SMA to a longer-period SMA; if the fast MA sits above the slow MA, it confirms an uptrend, and vice versa for a downtrend.
• Ichimoku Cloud Differential (Senkou A vs. Senkou B): Provides a forward-looking view of trend direction; Senkou A above Senkou B signals bullishness, and the opposite signals bearishness.
2. Momentum:
• Relative Strength Index (RSI): Identifies overbought (above its dynamically calculated upper bound) or oversold (below its lower bound) conditions; changes in RSI often precede price reversals.
• Stochastic %K: Highlights shifts in short-term momentum by comparing closing price to the recent high/low range; values above its upper band signal bullish momentum, below its lower band signal bearish momentum.
• MACD Histogram: Measures the difference between the MACD line and its signal line; a positive histogram indicates upward momentum, a negative histogram indicates downward momentum.
3. Price Action:
• Highest High / Lowest Low (HH/LL) Range: Over a defined lookback period, this captures breakout or breakdown levels. A closing price near the recent highs (with a positive MA slope) yields a bullish score, and near the lows (with a negative MA slope) yields a bearish score.
• Heikin-Ashi Doji Detection: Uses Heikin-Ashi candles to identify indecision or continuation patterns. A small Heikin-Ashi body (doji) relative to recent volatility is scored as neutral; a larger body in the direction of the MA slope is scored bullish or bearish.
• Candle Range Measurement: Compares each candle’s high-low range against its own dynamic band (average range ± standard deviation). Large candles aligning with the prevailing trend score bullish or bearish accordingly; unusually small candles can indicate exhaustion or consolidation.
4. Market Activity:
• Bollinger Bands Width (BBW): Measures the distance between BB upper and lower bands; wide bands indicate high volatility, narrow bands indicate low volatility.
• Average True Range (ATR): Quantifies average price movement (volatility). A sudden spike in ATR suggests a volatile environment, while a contraction suggests calm.
• Keltner Channels Width (KCW): Similar to BBW but uses ATR around an EMA. Provides a second layer of volatility context, confirming or contrasting BBW readings.
• Volume (with Moving Average): Compares current volume to its moving average ± standard deviation. High volume validates strong moves; low volume signals potential lack of conviction.
By combining these tools, the indicator captures trend direction, momentum strength, price-action nuances, and overall market energy, yielding a more balanced and comprehensive assessment than any single tool alone.
---
4. What Makes This Indicator Stand Out
• Multi-Dimensional Analysis: Rather than relying on a lone oscillator or moving average crossover, it simultaneously evaluates trend, momentum, price action, and activity.
• Dynamic Weighting: The relative importance of trend, momentum, and price action adjusts automatically based on real-time volatility (Market Activity State). For example, in highly volatile conditions, trend and momentum signals carry more weight; in calm markets, price action signals are prioritized.
• Stability Mechanisms:
• Smoothing: The net score is passed through a short moving average, filtering out noise, especially on lower timeframes.
• Hysteresis: Both Market Activity State and the final bullish/bearish/sideways zone require two consecutive confirmations before flipping, reducing whipsaw.
• Visual Interpretation: A fully customizable on-chart dashboard displays each sub-indicator’s value, regime, score, and comment, all color-coded. The oscillator plot changes color to reflect the current market zone (green for bullish, red for bearish, gray for sideways) and shows horizontal threshold lines at +2, 0, and –2.
---
5. Recommended Timeframes
• Short-Term (5 min, 15 min): Day traders and scalpers can benefit from rapid signals, but should enable smoothing (and possibly disable hysteresis) to reduce false whipsaws.
• Medium-Term (1 h, 4 h): Swing traders find a balance between responsiveness and reliability. Less smoothing is required here, and the default parameters (e.g., ADX length = 14, RSI length = 14) perform well.
• Long-Term (Daily, Weekly): Position traders tracking major trends can disable smoothing for immediate raw readings, since higher-timeframe noise is minimal. Adjust lookback lengths (e.g., increase adxLength, rsiLength) if desired for slower signals.
Tip: If you keep smoothing off, stick to timeframes of 1 h or higher to avoid excessive signal “chatter.”
---
6. How Scoring Works
A. Individual Indicator Scores
Each sub-indicator is assigned one of three discrete scores:
• +1 if it indicates a bullish condition (e.g., RSI above its dynamically calculated upper bound).
• 0 if it is neutral (e.g., RSI between upper and lower bounds).
• –1 if it indicates a bearish condition (e.g., RSI below its dynamically calculated lower bound).
Examples of individual score assignments:
• ADX/DMI:
• +1 if ADX ≥ adxThreshold and +DI > –DI (strong bullish trend)
• –1 if ADX ≥ adxThreshold and –DI > +DI (strong bearish trend)
• 0 if ADX < adxThreshold (trend strength below threshold)
• RSI:
• +1 if RSI > RSI_upperBound
• –1 if RSI < RSI_lowerBound
• 0 otherwise
• ATR (as part of Market Activity):
• +1 if ATR > (ATR_MA + stdev(ATR))
• –1 if ATR < (ATR_MA – stdev(ATR))
• 0 otherwise
Each of the four main categories shares this same +1/0/–1 logic across their sub-components.
B. Category Scores
Once each sub-indicator reports +1, 0, or –1, these are summed within their categories as follows:
• Trend Score = (ADX score) + (MA slope score) + (Ichimoku differential score)
• Momentum Score = (RSI score) + (Stochastic %K score) + (MACD histogram score)
• Price Action Score = (Highest-High/Lowest-Low score) + (Heikin-Ashi doji score) + (Candle range score)
• Market Activity Raw Score = (BBW score) + (ATR score) + (KC width score) + (Volume score)
Each category’s summed value can range between –3 and +3 (for Trend, Momentum, and Price Action), and between –4 and +4 for Market Activity raw.
C. Market Activity State and Dynamic Weight Adjustments
Rather than contributing directly to the netScore like the other three categories, Market Activity determines how much weight to assign to Trend, Momentum, and Price Action:
1. Compute Market Activity Raw Score by summing BBW, ATR, KCW, and Volume individual scores (each +1/0/–1).
2. Bucket into High, Medium, or Low Activity:
• High if raw Score ≥ 2 (volatile market).
• Low if raw Score ≤ –2 (calm market).
• Medium otherwise.
3. Apply Hysteresis (if enabled): The state only flips after two consecutive bars register the same high/low/medium label.
4. Set Category Weights:
• High Activity: Trend = 50 %, Momentum = 35 %, Price Action = 15 %.
• Low Activity: Trend = 25 %, Momentum = 20 %, Price Action = 55 %.
• Medium Activity: Use the trader’s base weight inputs (e.g., Trend = 40 %, Momentum = 30 %, Price Action = 30 % by default).
D. Calculating the Net Score
5. Normalize Base Weights (so that the sum of Trend + Momentum + Price Action always equals 100 %).
6. Determine Current Weights based on the Market Activity State (High/Medium/Low).
7. Compute Each Category’s Contribution: Multiply (categoryScore) × (currentWeight).
8. Sum Contributions to get the raw netScore (a floating-point value that can exceed ±3 when scores are strong).
9. Smooth the netScore over two bars (if smoothing is enabled) to reduce noise.
10. Apply Hysteresis to the Final Zone:
• If the smoothed netScore ≥ +2, the bar is classified as “Bullish.”
• If the smoothed netScore ≤ –2, the bar is classified as “Bearish.”
• Otherwise, it is “Sideways.”
• To prevent rapid flips, the script requires two consecutive bars in the new zone before officially changing the displayed zone (if hysteresis is on).
E. Thresholds for Zone Classification
• BULLISH: netScore ≥ +2
• BEARISH: netScore ≤ –2
• SIDEWAYS: –2 < netScore < +2
---
7. Role of Volatility (Market Activity State) in Scoring
Volatility acts as a dynamic switch that shifts which category carries the most influence:
1. High Activity (Volatile):
• Detected when at least two sub-scores out of BBW, ATR, KCW, and Volume equal +1.
• The script sets Trend weight = 50 % and Momentum weight = 35 %. Price Action weight is minimized at 15 %.
• Rationale: In volatile markets, strong trending moves and momentum surges dominate, so those signals are more reliable than nuanced candle patterns.
2. Low Activity (Calm):
• Detected when at least two sub-scores out of BBW, ATR, KCW, and Volume equal –1.
• The script sets Price Action weight = 55 %, Trend = 25 %, and Momentum = 20 %.
• Rationale: In quiet, sideways markets, subtle price-action signals (breakouts, doji patterns, small-range candles) are often the best early indicators of a new move.
3. Medium Activity (Balanced):
• Raw Score between –1 and +1 from the four volatility metrics.
• Uses whatever base weights the trader has specified (e.g., Trend = 40 %, Momentum = 30 %, Price Action = 30 %).
Because volatility can fluctuate rapidly, the script employs hysteresis on Market Activity State: a new High or Low state must occur on two consecutive bars before weights actually shift. This avoids constant back-and-forth weight changes and provides more stability.
---
8. Scoring Example (Hypothetical Scenario)
• Symbol: Bitcoin on a 1-hour chart.
• Market Activity: Raw volatility sub-scores show BBW (+1), ATR (+1), KCW (0), Volume (+1) → Total raw Score = +3 → High Activity.
• Weights Selected: Trend = 50 %, Momentum = 35 %, Price Action = 15 %.
• Trend Signals:
• ADX strong and +DI > –DI → +1
• Fast MA above Slow MA → +1
• Ichimoku Senkou A > Senkou B → +1
→ Trend Score = +3
• Momentum Signals:
• RSI above upper bound → +1
• MACD histogram positive → +1
• Stochastic %K within neutral zone → 0
→ Momentum Score = +2
• Price Action Signals:
• Highest High/Lowest Low check yields 0 (close not near extremes)
• Heikin-Ashi doji reading is neutral → 0
• Candle range slightly above upper bound but trend is strong, so → +1
→ Price Action Score = +1
• Compute Net Score (before smoothing):
• Trend contribution = 3 × 0.50 = 1.50
• Momentum contribution = 2 × 0.35 = 0.70
• Price Action contribution = 1 × 0.15 = 0.15
• Raw netScore = 1.50 + 0.70 + 0.15 = 2.35
• Since 2.35 ≥ +2 and hysteresis is met, the final zone is “Bullish.”
Although the netScore lands at 2.35 (Bullish), smoothing might bring it slightly below 2.00 on the first bar (e.g., 1.90), in which case the script would wait for a second consecutive reading above +2 before officially classifying the zone as Bullish (if hysteresis is enabled).
---
9. Correlation Between Categories
The four categories—Trend Strength, Momentum, Price Action, and Market Activity—often reinforce or offset one another. The script takes advantage of these natural correlations:
• Bullish Alignment: If ADX is strong and pointed upward, fast MA is above slow MA, and Ichimoku is positive, that usually coincides with RSI climbing above its upper bound and the MACD histogram turning positive. In such cases, both Trend and Momentum categories generate +1 or +2. Because the Market Activity State is likely High (given the accompanying volatility), Trend and Momentum weights are at their peak, so the netScore quickly crosses into Bullish territory.
• Sideways/Consolidation: During a low-volatility, sideways phase, ADX may fall below its threshold, MAs may flatten, and RSI might hover in the neutral band. However, subtle price-action signals (like a small breakout candle or a Heikin-Ashi candle with a slight bias) can still produce a +1 in the Price Action category. If Market Activity is Low, Price Action’s weight (55 %) can carry enough influence—even if Trend and Momentum are neutral—to push the netScore out of “Sideways” into a mild bullish or bearish bias.
• Opposing Signals: When Trend is bullish but Momentum turns negative (for example, price continues up but RSI rolls over), the two scores can partially cancel. Market Activity may remain Medium, in which case the netScore lingers near zero (Sideways). The trader can then wait for either a clearer momentum shift or a fresh price-action breakout before committing.
By dynamically recognizing these correlations and adjusting weights, the indicator ensures that:
• When Trend and Momentum align (and volatility supports it), the netScore leaps strongly into Bullish or Bearish.
• When Trend is neutral but Price Action shows an early move in a low-volatility environment, Price Action’s extra weight in the Low Activity State can still produce actionable signals.
---
10. Market Activity State & Its Role (Detailed)
The Market Activity State is not a direct category score—it is an overarching context setter for how heavily to trust Trend, Momentum, or Price Action. Here’s how it is derived and applied:
1. Calculate Four Volatility Sub-Scores:
• BBW: Compare the current band width to its own moving average ± standard deviation. If BBW > (BBW_MA + stdev), assign +1 (high volatility); if BBW < (BBW_MA × 0.5), assign –1 (low volatility); else 0.
• ATR: Compare ATR to its moving average ± standard deviation. A spike above the upper threshold is +1; a contraction below the lower threshold is –1; otherwise 0.
• KCW: Same logic as ATR but around the KCW mean.
• Volume: Compare current volume to its volume MA ± standard deviation. Above the upper threshold is +1; below the lower threshold is –1; else 0.
2. Sum Sub-Scores → Raw Market Activity Score: Range between –4 and +4.
3. Assign Market Activity State:
• High Activity: Raw Score ≥ +2 (at least two volatility metrics are strongly spiking).
• Low Activity: Raw Score ≤ –2 (at least two metrics signal unusually low volatility or thin volume).
• Medium Activity: Raw Score is between –1 and +1 inclusive.
4. Hysteresis for Stability:
• If hysteresis is enabled, a new state only takes hold after two consecutive bars confirm the same High, Medium, or Low label.
• This prevents the Market Activity State from bouncing around when volatility is on the fence.
5. Set Category Weights Based on Activity State:
• High Activity: Trend = 50 %, Momentum = 35 %, Price Action = 15 %.
• Low Activity: Trend = 25 %, Momentum = 20 %, Price Action = 55 %.
• Medium Activity: Use trader’s base weights (e.g., Trend = 40 %, Momentum = 30 %, Price Action = 30 %).
6. Impact on netScore: Because category scores (–3 to +3) multiply by these weights, High Activity amplifies the effect of strong Trend and Momentum scores; Low Activity amplifies the effect of Price Action.
7. Market Context Tooltip: The dashboard includes a tooltip summarizing the current state—e.g., “High activity, trend and momentum prioritized,” “Low activity, price action prioritized,” or “Balanced market, all categories considered.”
---
11. Category Weights: Base vs. Dynamic
Traders begin by specifying base weights for Trend Strength, Momentum, and Price Action that sum to 100 %. These apply only when volatility is in the Medium band. Once volatility shifts:
• High Volatility Overrides:
• Trend jumps from its base (e.g., 40 %) to 50 %.
• Momentum jumps from its base (e.g., 30 %) to 35 %.
• Price Action is reduced to 15 %.
Example: If base weights were Trend = 40 %, Momentum = 30 %, Price Action = 30 %, then in High Activity they become 50/35/15. A Trend score of +3 now contributes 3 × 0.50 = +1.50 to netScore; a Momentum +2 contributes 2 × 0.35 = +0.70. In total, Trend + Momentum can easily push netScore above the +2 threshold on its own.
• Low Volatility Overrides:
• Price Action leaps from its base (30 %) to 55 %.
• Trend falls to 25 %, Momentum falls to 20 %.
Why? When markets are quiet, subtle candle breakouts, doji patterns, and small-range expansions tend to foreshadow the next swing more effectively than raw trend readings. A Price Action score of +3 in this state contributes 3 × 0.55 = +1.65, which can carry the netScore toward +2—even if Trend and Momentum are neutral or only mildly positive.
Because these weight shifts happen only after two consecutive bars confirm a High or Low state (if hysteresis is on), the indicator avoids constantly flipping its emphasis during borderline volatility phases.
---
12. Dominant Category Explained
Within the dashboard, a label such as “Trend Dominant,” “Momentum Dominant,” or “Price Action Dominant” appears when one category’s absolute weighted contribution to netScore is the largest. Concretely:
• Compute each category’s weighted contribution = (raw category score) × (current weight).
• Compare the absolute values of those three contributions.
• The category with the highest absolute value is flagged as Dominant for that bar.
Why It Matters:
• Momentum Dominant: Indicates that the combined force of RSI, Stochastic, and MACD (after weighting) is pushing netScore farther than either Trend or Price Action. In practice, it means that short-term sentiment and speed of change are the primary drivers right now, so traders should watch for continued momentum signals before committing to a trade.
• Trend Dominant: Means ADX, MA slope, and Ichimoku (once weighted) outweigh the other categories. This suggests a strong directional move is in place; trend-following entries or confirming pullbacks are likely to succeed.
• Price Action Dominant: Occurs when breakout/breakdown patterns, Heikin-Ashi candle readings, and range expansions (after weighting) are the most influential. This often happens in calmer markets, where subtle shifts in candle structure can foreshadow bigger moves.
By explicitly calling out which category is carrying the most weight at any moment, the dashboard gives traders immediate insight into why the netScore is tilting toward bullish, bearish, or sideways.
---
13. Oscillator Plot: How to Read It
The “Net Score” oscillator sits below the dashboard and visually displays the smoothed netScore as a line graph. Key features:
1. Value Range: In normal conditions it oscillates roughly between –3 and +3, but extreme confluences can push it outside that range.
2. Horizontal Threshold Lines:
• +2 Line (Bullish threshold)
• 0 Line (Neutral midline)
• –2 Line (Bearish threshold)
3. Zone Coloring:
• Green Background (Bullish Zone): When netScore ≥ +2.
• Red Background (Bearish Zone): When netScore ≤ –2.
• Gray Background (Sideways Zone): When –2 < netScore < +2.
4. Dynamic Line Color:
• The plotted netScore line itself is colored green in a Bullish Zone, red in a Bearish Zone, or gray in a Sideways Zone, creating an immediate visual cue.
Interpretation Tips:
• Crossing Above +2: Signals a strong enough combined trend/momentum/price-action reading to classify as Bullish. Many traders wait for a clear crossing plus a confirmation candle before entering a long position.
• Crossing Below –2: Indicates a strong Bearish signal. Traders may consider short or exit strategies.
• Rising Slope, Even Below +2: If netScore climbs steadily from neutral toward +2, it demonstrates building bullish momentum.
• Divergence: If price makes a higher high but the oscillator fails to reach a new high, it can warn of weakening momentum and a potential reversal.
---
14. Comments and Their Necessity
Every sub-indicator (ADX, MA slope, Ichimoku, RSI, Stochastic, MACD, HH/LL, Heikin-Ashi, Candle Range, BBW, ATR, KCW, Volume) generates a short comment that appears in the detailed dashboard. Examples:
• “Strong bullish trend” or “Strong bearish trend” for ADX/DMI
• “Fast MA above slow MA” or “Fast MA below slow MA” for MA slope
• “RSI above dynamic threshold” or “RSI below dynamic threshold” for RSI
• “MACD histogram positive” or “MACD histogram negative” for MACD Hist
• “Price near highs” or “Price near lows” for HH/LL checks
• “Bullish Heikin Ashi” or “Bearish Heikin Ashi” for HA Doji scoring
• “Large range, trend confirmed” or “Small range, trend contradicted” for Candle Range
Additionally, the top-row comment for each category is:
• Trend: “Highly Bullish,” “Highly Bearish,” or “Neutral Trend.”
• Momentum: “Strong Momentum,” “Weak Momentum,” or “Neutral Momentum.”
• Price Action: “Bullish Action,” “Bearish Action,” or “Neutral Action.”
• Market Activity: “Volatile Market,” “Calm Market,” or “Stable Market.”
Reasons for These Comments:
• Transparency: Shows exactly how each sub-indicator contributed to its category score.
• Education: Helps traders learn why a category is labeled bullish, bearish, or neutral, building intuition over time.
• Customization: If, for example, the RSI comment says “RSI neutral” despite an impending trend shift, a trader might choose to adjust RSI length or thresholds.
In the detailed dashboard, hovering over each comment cell also reveals a tooltip with additional context (e.g., “Fast MA above slow MA” or “Senkou A above Senkou B”), helping traders understand the precise rule behind that +1, 0, or –1 assignment.

15. Real-Life Example (Consolidated)
• Instrument & Timeframe: Bitcoin (BTCUSD), 1-hour chart.
• Current Market Activity: BBW and ATR both spike (+1 each), KCW is moderately high (+1), but volume is only neutral (0) → Raw Market Activity Score = +2 → State = High Activity (after two bars, if hysteresis is on).
• Category Weights Applied: Trend = 50 %, Momentum = 35 %, Price Action = 15 %.
• Trend Sub-Scores:
1. ADX = 25 (above threshold 20) with +DI > –DI → +1.
2. Fast MA (20-period) sits above Slow MA (50-period) → +1.
3. Ichimoku: Senkou A > Senkou B → +1.
→ Trend Score = +3.
• Momentum Sub-Scores:
4. RSI = 75 (above its moving average +1 stdev) → +1.
5. MACD histogram = +0.15 → +1.
6. Stochastic %K = 50 (mid-range) → 0.
→ Momentum Score = +2.
• Price Action Sub-Scores:
7. Price is not within 1 % of the 20-period high/low and slope = positive → 0.
8. Heikin-Ashi body is slightly larger than stdev over last 5 bars with haClose > haOpen → +1.
9. Candle range is just above its dynamic upper bound but trend is already captured, so → +1.
→ Price Action Score = +2.
• Calculate netScore (before smoothing):
• Trend contribution = 3 × 0.50 = 1.50
• Momentum contribution = 2 × 0.35 = 0.70
• Price Action contribution = 2 × 0.15 = 0.30
• Raw netScore = 1.50 + 0.70 + 0.30 = 2.50 → Immediately classified as Bullish.
• Oscillator & Dashboard Output:
• The oscillator line crosses above +2 and turns green.
• Dashboard displays:
• Trend Regime “BULLISH,” Trend Score = 3, Comment = “Highly Bullish.”
• Momentum Regime “BULLISH,” Momentum Score = 2, Comment = “Strong Momentum.”
• Price Action Regime “BULLISH,” Price Action Score = 2, Comment = “Bullish Action.”
• Market Activity State “High,” Comment = “Volatile Market.”
• Weights: Trend 50 %, Momentum 35 %, Price Action 15 %.
• Dominant Category: Trend (because 1.50 > 0.70 > 0.30).
• Overall Score: 2.50, posCount = (three +1s in Trend) + (two +1s in Momentum) + (two +1s in Price Action) = 7 bullish signals, negCount = 0.
• Final Zone = “BULLISH.”
• The trader sees that both Trend and Momentum are reinforcing each other under high volatility. They might wait one more candle for confirmation but already have strong evidence to consider a long.

Among the many indicators, it can be said that DMI is the only "super turning" indicator. This indicator can alone send out risk warning signals when extreme market conditions occur in the stock market, helping us to solve some problems.
If we can operate according to the instructions of DMI, firstly, we can avoid the mistake of buying stocks at the head. Secondly, in the process of falling fear of the market, we can follow the direction signal sent by DMI and catch every time on the way down. Opportunity to rebound to unwind.
If you look at the diagram of the DMI, you will think it is very complicated, because there are four lines in its diagram, and they are intertwined, and it is difficult to distinguish the complex signals in it. But don't worry about its complex structure, we will fully dissect this indicator.
Function
These four lines are: PDI, MDI, ADX and ADXR. The scale of the table is from 0-100, which means from very weak to very strong. The PDI curve and MDI curve on some software are called +DI curve and -DI curve , all have the same meaning.
PDI: Represents the position of multiple parties in the market.
In market movements, the higher the PDI, the stronger the current market. On the contrary, it is a weak market. The A-share market is easy to go to extremes. Therefore, we can see that in the past A-share market, the PDI sometimes fell to near zero, and at this time, it often indicated that a rebound and uptrend was about to start.
MDI: Represents the position of the bears in the market.
In the market movement, the higher the MDI goes, the weaker the current market is, and vice versa, it is a strong market. Before a big bull market comes, we can see the MDI drop to a position close to zero, and at this time, the bears in the market have no power to fight back.
The relationship between PDI and MDI:
In the operation of the market, PDI and MDI are intertwined with each other. If the PDI is above the MDI, the market at this time is a strong market. The MDI is above the PDI, which is a bear market. The closer the distance between the two, the market is in a stalemate of consolidation. On the contrary, the further apart the two lines are, the more obvious the unilateral nature of the market is, whether it is a bull market or a bear market. The so-called unilateral market means that there is no midway adjustment when it rises, and there is no rebound correction when it falls.
ADX: Fast steering pullback.
The difference between ADX and other analysis indicators is that whether it is rising or falling, as long as there is a unilateral market, it runs upwards, not like other indicators, the strong market runs upwards and the weak market runs downwards.
The thread is almost entwined with PDI and MDI in general market movement, which makes no sense at this time. However, once the market breaks out of the market and starts to go to extremes, whether the market is rising or falling, ADX will start to run upwards. At this time, ADX has a clear meaning, because DMI has begun to issue early warning of impending turn!
ADXR: slow pull back.
This line is matched to ADX and is a moving average of ADX values. When ADX goes up, ADXR goes up with it, just slower.
When a round of rapid decline ends, it usually needs to be corrected by a rebound, and ADX will take the lead in turning up. Once it crosses with ADXR, it is regarded as an effective breakthrough.
Numerical division. I set an input threshold for HEDMI, and users can set the optimal threshold to buy and sell according to different TFs.
When PDI crosses the threshold, no matter how strong the bull market is, we must beware of risks from happening at any time.
In order to distinguish more clearly, I slightly modified the formula of the system, and when this happens, the indicator will issue a green warning label, so as to avoid risks in time.
Comprehensive use of four lines:
If the four lines in the steering indicator DMI are intertwined below 50, it usually means that the market is in a state of mild consolidation at this time. The DMI indicator at this time is useless because it does not generate a strong pullback force. Don't worry about an unexpected turnaround in the market. As for the consolidation, it's not a turnaround, it's a breakout.
When PDI and MDI gradually separate, at this time, ADX and ADXR will also rise. At this time, the DIM that is usually messy like twine will be clearly separated. When rising, PDI rises along with ADX and ADXR, while MDI sinks weakly. On the contrary, when the market starts to fall, MDI will rise along with ADX and ADXR, and PDI will sink helplessly. At this time, the DMI will be like a "tiger's mouth", gradually opening its bloody mouth. The bigger the opening, the more lethal the bite.
Here comes a tactic, or technical trend, called double hooves, that is, PDI and MDI split, ADX and ADXR upward to produce golden forks, PDI and MDI are like the double front hooves of a horse, ADX and ADXR The golden fork is like the rear hooves of a steed ready to take off, and this trend of the four lines is like the four legs of a steed that is about to run.
If you think it is too complicated to look at DMI like this, then I can tell you the easiest way to judge, that is, just look at the PDI line. When the PDI line falls below 10, boldly buy the dip, because it is a dip, so you need to calculate the rebound At this time, combined with the golden section theory I often talk about, you can easily find the selling point by making the golden section of the downward trend for the previous trend.
This kind of bottom-hunting method uses the golden section theory, and basically there will be no losses. Remember that one thing is not to be greedy and strictly enforce discipline. This is bottom-hunting, and advancing with both hooves is chasing up. The two styles are different, and the operation styles are different. You also need to explore more in actual combat. Any kind of trick, if you practice it proficiently, it is a unique trick.
Remark
Hanning Window Enhanced DMI
Free and Open Source Indicator
Hull DMI - MattesHull DMI - Mattes
A Directional Movement Index enhanced with Hull Moving Average smoothing for refined trend detection.
This indicator reimagines the classic Directional Movement Index (DMI) by incorporating Hull Moving Average (HMA) smoothing on high and low prices. It calculates the +DI and -DI components based on changes in these hulled values, then derives the ADX for trend strength. The core plot displays the difference between +DI and -DI, colored to indicate bullish (blue) or bearish (purple) dominance when ADX is rising. Additionally, it overlays colored candles on the price chart to visually represent the prevailing trend direction.
Key Features:
Hull-Smoothed Inputs: Applies HMA to highs and lows before computing directional changes, reducing noise and lag compared to standard DMI.
Customizable Lengths: Adjustable periods for HMA, DI, and ADX smoothing to suit various timeframes and assets.
Trend Visualization: Plots DI difference with dynamic coloring and overlays trend-colored candles for at-a-glance analysis.
Alert Conditions: Built-in alerts for long (bullish) and short (bearish) signals when conditions shift.
How It Differs from Standard DMI/ADX:
Unlike the traditional DMI, which uses raw price changes and true range, this version employs Hull Moving Averages on highs and lows for smoother, more responsive directional calculations. This minimizes whipsaws in choppy markets while preserving sensitivity to genuine trends. The ADX is integrated to filter signals, ensuring color changes and alerts only occur during strengthening trends, setting it apart from basic oscillator-based indicators. Why It's Useful:
Enhanced Trend Identification: The HMA smoothing provides clearer signals in volatile environments, helping traders spot emerging trends earlier.
Visual Clarity: Colored DI plot and candle overlays make it easy to interpret market bias without cluttering the chart.
Versatility: Suitable for stocks, forex, crypto, and more; excels in trend-following strategies or as a filter for other systems.
Risk Management Aid: By focusing on ADX-confirmed moves, it reduces false signals, potentially improving win rates in systematic trading.
This Hull DMI variant offers several practical advantages that can directly improve trading decisions and performance:
Reduced Lag with Smoother Signals: By applying Hull Moving Average smoothing to highs and lows, the indicator responds faster to genuine trend changes than the standard DMI while filtering out much of the noise that causes false signals in ranging or choppy markets. Traders get earlier entries into trending moves without excessive whipsaws.
Built-in Trend Strength Filter: The optional ADX confirmation (enabled by default) ensures bullish signals and blue coloring only activate when trend strength is increasing (ADX rising). This helps traders avoid entering long positions during weakening or sideways trends, focusing capital on higher-probability setups.
Clear Visual Bias at a Glance: The single oscillator line (+DI – -DI) centered on zero, combined with dynamic blue/purple coloring and full candle overlay on the price chart, instantly shows the dominant trend direction. No need to interpret multiple lines—traders can quickly assess market bias across multiple charts or timeframes.
Versatile Across Markets and Styles: Works effectively on stocks, forex, futures, and cryptocurrencies. Trend-following traders can use it standalone for entries/exits, swing traders can use it for bias confirmation, and scalpers/day traders benefit on lower timeframes due to the reduced lag.
Improved Risk Management: By prioritizing ADX-confirmed directional moves, the indicator naturally filters low-conviction setups. This can lead to higher win rates and better risk-reward ratios when used systematically, especially when combined with proper stop-loss placement below/above recent swings.
Easy Integration: Built-in alert conditions and simple long/short logic make it straightforward to incorporate into automated strategies, watchlists, or as a confirming filter alongside other indicators (e.g., moving averages, RSI, volume profile).
Customizable Sensitivity: Separate inputs for Hull length, DI period, and ADX smoothing allow traders to optimize the indicator for specific assets, volatility regimes, or personal trading horizons—making it adaptable rather than one-size-fits-all.
Signals & Interpretation
The oscillator plots the difference between +DI and -DI (positive = bullish dominance, negative = bearish).
Bullish Signal (Long): +DI crosses above -DI, and (if ADX confirmation enabled) ADX is rising — triggers blue coloring, candle overlay, and long alert.
Bearish Signal (Short): -DI crosses above +DI — triggers purple coloring, candle overlay, and short alert.
Zero line acts as neutrality; crossings indicate potential trend shifts.
Best used in trending markets; ADX rising filter helps avoid whipsaws.

Aj's DikFat Adjusted ADXRAj's DikFat Adjusted ADXR
This indicator is designed to plot the Average Directional Index (ADX) and Average Directional Movement Rating (ADXR) on the chart. The ADX and ADXR are both used to measure the strength of a trend in the market. The script allows you to customize several parameters, including the ADX Length and the Moving Average Method used for smoothing the directional movement indicators.
Key Features:
- ADX Length : Defines the number of periods over which the ADX is calculated. This value can be adjusted by the user to suit different trading styles and timeframes.
- Moving Average Method : Choose between several smoothing methods, including Simple Moving Average (SMA), Exponential Moving Average (EMA), Wilder's Moving Average, Weighted Moving Average (WMA), Hull Moving Average (HMA), or a Super Smooth Moving Average.
- Directional Indicators : The script calculates the +DI and -DI, which represent the positive and negative directional indicators respectively. These are then used to calculate the ADX.
- ADXR : The ADXR is calculated as the average of the current ADX value and the ADX value from 14 periods ago, providing a more smoothed representation of the trend strength.
How Traders Use ADX and ADXR:
- ADX : A rising ADX indicates an increasing trend strength, while a falling ADX suggests a weakening trend. A value above 25 is often considered an indication of a strong trend.
- ADXR : This indicator smooths the ADX over time, helping traders identify persistent trends. The ADXR can help filter out noise and provide a clearer picture of the trend's health.
Please note that this script and its indicators are designed to be used as tools for analysis, not as guarantees of market outcomes. Adjustments to the moving average method or ADX length can change the behavior of the indicators based on market conditions.

Overview
Dynamo is built to be the Swiss-knife for price-movement & strength detection, it aims to provide a holistic view of the current price across multiple dimensions. This is achieved by combining 3 very specific indicators(RSI, Stochastic & ADX) into a single view. Each of which serve a different purpose, and collectively provide a simple, yet powerful tool to gauge the true nature of price-action.
Background
Dynamo uses 3 technical analysis tools in conjunction to provide better insights into price movement, they are briefly explained below:
Relative Strength Index(RSI)
RSI is a popular indicator that is often used to measure the velocity of price change & the intensity of directional moves. RSI computes the relative strength of the current price by comparing the security’s bullish strength versus bearish strength for a given period, i.e. by comparing average gain to average loss.
It is a range bound(0-100) variable that generates a bullish reading if average gain is higher, and a bullish reading if average loss is higher. Values over 50 are generally considered bullish & values less than 50 indicate a bearish market. Values over 70 indicate an overbought condition, and values below 30 indicate oversold condition.
Stochastic
Stochastic is an indicator that aims to measure the momentum in the market, by comparing most recent closing price of the security to its price range for a given period. It is based on the assumption that price tends to close near the recent high in an up trend, and it closes near the recent low during a down trend.
It is also range bound(0-100), values over 80 indicate overbought condition and values below 20 indicate oversold condition.
Average Directional Index(ADX)
ADX is an indicator that can quantify trend strength, it is derived from two underlying indices, known as Directional Movement Index(DMI). +DMI represents strength of the up trend, and -DMI represents strength of the down trend, and ADX is the average of the two.
ADX is non-directional or trend-neutral, which means, it does not follow the direction of the price, instead ADX will rise only when there is a strong trend, it does not matter if it’s an up trend or a down trend. Typical ranges of ADX are 25-50 for a strong trend, anything below 25 is considered as no trend or weak trend. ADX can frequently shoot upto higher values, but it generally finds exhaustion levels around the 60-75 range.
About the script
All these indicators are very powerful tools, but just like any other indicator they have their limitations. Stochastic & ADX can generate false signals in volatile markets, meaning price wouldn’t always follow through with what’s being indicated. ADX may even fail to generate a signal in less volatile markets, simply because it is based on moving averages, it tends to react slower to price changes. RSI can also lose it’s effectiveness when markets are trending strong, as it can stay in the overbought or oversold ranges for an extended period of time.
Dynamo aims to provide the trader with a much broader perspective by bringing together these contrasting indicators into a single simplified view. When Stochastic becomes less reliable in highly volatile conditions, one can cross validate their deduction by looking at RSI patterns. When RSI gets stuck in overbought or oversold range, one can refer to ADX to get better picture about the current trend. Similarly, various combinations of rules & setups can be formulated to get a more deterministic view, when working with either of these indicators.
There many possible use cases for a tool like this, and it totally depends on how you want to use it. An obvious option is to use it to trigger signals only after it has been confirmed by two or more indicators, for example, RSI & Stochastic make a great combination for cross-over or cross-under strategies. Some of the other options include trend detection, strength detection, reversals or price rejection points, possible duration of a trend, and all of these can very easily be translated into effective entry and exit points for trades.
How to use it
Dynamo is an easy-to-use tool, just add it to your chart and you’re good to start with your market analysis. Output consists of three overlapping plots, each of which tackle price movement from a slightly different angle.
Stochastic: A momentum indicator that plots the current closing price in relation to the price-range over a given period of time.
Can be used to detect the direction of the price movement, potential reversals, or duration of an up/down move.
Plotted as grey coloured histograms in the background.
Relative Strength Index(RSI): RSI is also a momentum indicator that measures the velocity with which the price changes.
Can be used to detect the speed of the price movement, RSI divergences can be a nice way to detect directional changes.
Plotted as an aqua coloured line.
Average Directional Index(ADX): ADX is an indicator that is used to measure the strength of the current trend.
Can be used to measure how strong the price movement is, both up and down, or to establish long terms trends.
Plotted as an orange coloured line.
Features
Provides a well-rounded view of the market movement by amalgamating some of the best strength indicators, helping traders make better informed decisions with minimal effort.
Simplistic plots that aim to convey clean signals, as a result, reducing clutter on the chart, and hopefully in the trader's head too.
Combines different types of indicators into a single view, which leads to an optimised use of the precious screen real-estate.
Final Note
Dynamo is designed to be minimalistic in functionality and in appearance, as it is being built to be a general purpose tool that is not only beginner friendly, but can also be highly-configurable to meet the needs of pro traders.
Thresholds & default values for the indicators are only suggestions based on industry standards, they may not be an exact match for all markets & conditions. Hence, it is advisable for the user to test & adjust these values according their securities and trading styles.
The chart highlights one of many possible setups using this tool, and it can used to create various types of setups & strategies, but it is also worth noting that the usability & the effectiveness of this tool also depends on the user’s understanding & interpretation of the underlying indicators.
Lastly, this tool is only an indicator and should only be perceived that way. It does not guarantee anything, and the user should do their own research before committing to trades based on any indicator.
CHOP Zone Entry Strategy + DMI/PSAR ExitThis is a Strategy with associated visual indicators and Long/Short and Reverse/Close Position Alerts for the Choppiness Index (CHOP) . It is used to determine if the market is choppy (trading sideways) or not choppy (trading within a trend in either direction). CHOP is not directional, so a DMI script was ported into this strategy to allow for trend confirmation and direction determination; it consists of an Average Directional Index (ADX) , Plus Directional Indicator (+DI) and Minus Directional Indicator (-DI) . In addition, a Parabolic SAR is also included to act as a trailing stop during any strong trends.
Development Notes
---------------------------
This indicator, and most of the descriptions below, were derived largely from the TradingView reference manual. Feedback and suggestions for improvement are more than welcome, as well are recommended Input settings and best practices for use.

Recommend using the below DMI and PSAR indicators in conjunction with this script to fully visualize and understand how entry and exit conditions are chosen. Variable inputs should correlate between the scripts for uniformity and visual compatibility.
THANKS to LazyBear and his Momentum Squeeze script for helping me quickly develop a momentum state model for coloring the Chop line by trend.
Strategy Description
---------------------------
CHOP produces values that determine whether the market is choppy or trending . The closer the value is to 100 , the higher the choppiness levels , while the closer it is to 0 , the stronger the market is trending . Territories for both levels, and their associated upper and lower thresholds, are popularly defined using the Fibonacci Retracements, 61.8 and 38.2.
Basic Use
---------------------------
CHOP is often used to confirm the market condition to help you stay out of sideways markets and only enter when there is movement or imminent explosions. When readings are above the upper threshold, continued sideways movement may be expected, while readings below the lower threshold are typically indicative of a continuing trend. It is also used to anticipate upcoming trendiness changes, with the general belief that extended periods of consolidation (sideways movement) are followed by extended periods of strong, trending, directional movement, and vice versa.
One limitation in this index is that you must be cautious in deciding whether the range or trend will likely continue, or if it will reverse.
Confidence in price action and trend is higher when two or more indicators are in agreement -- while this strategy combines CHOP with both DMI and PSAR, we would still recommend pairing with other indicators to determine entry or exit trade opportunities.
Recommend also choosing 'Once Per Bar Close' when creating alerts.
Inputs
---------------------------
Strategy Direction - an option to only trade Short, Long, Both, or only in the direction of the Trend (Follow Trend is the Default).
Sensitivity - an incremental variable to test whether the past n candles are in the same trend state before triggering a delayed long or short alert (1 is the Default). Can help filter out noise and reduces active alerts.
Show Chop Index - two visual styles are provided for user preference, a visible Chop line with a background overlay, or a compact column and label only view.
Chop Lookback Period - the time period to be used in calculating CHOP (14 is the Default).
Chop Offset - changing this number will move the CHOP either forwards or backwards relative to the current market (0 is the Default).
Smooth Chop Line and Length - if enabled, the entered time period will be used in calculating a smooth average of the index (Enabled and 4 are the Defaults).
Color Line to Trend Direction - toggles whether the index line is colored to visually depict the current trend direction (Enabled is the Default).
Color Background - toggles the visibility of a background color based on the index state (Enabled is the Default).
Enable DMI Option - if enabled, then entry will be confirmed by and dependent on the ADX Key Level, with any close or reversal confirmed by both ADX and +/-DI to determine whether there is a strong trend present or not (Enabled is the Default).
ADX Smoothing - the time period to be used in calculating the ADX which has a smoothing component (14 is the Default).
DI Length - the time period to be used in calculating the DI (14 is the Default).
ADX Key Level - any trade with the ADX above the key level is a strong indicator that it is trending (23 to 25 is the suggested setting).
Enable PSAR Option - enables trailing stop loss orders (Enabled is the Default).
PSAR Start - the starting value for the Acceleration Force (0.015 is our chosen Default, 0.02 is more common).
PSAR Increment - the increment in which the Acceleration Force will move (0.001 is our chosen Default, 0.02 is more common).
PSAR Max Value - the maximum value of the Acceleration Factor (0.2 is the Default).
Color Candles Option - an option to transpose the CHOP condition levels to the main candle bars. Note that the outer red and green border will still be distinguished by whether each individual candle is bearish or bullish during the specified timeframe.
Note too that if both DMI and PSAR are deselected, then close determinations will default to a CHOP reversal strategy (e.g., close long when below 38.2 and close short when above 61.8). Though if either DMI or PSAR are enabled, then the CHOP reversal for close determination will automatically be disabled.
Indicator Visuals
---------------------------
For the candle colors, black indicates tight chop (45 to 55), yellow is loose chop (38.2 to 45 and 55 to 61.8), dark purple is trending down (< 38.2), and dark blue is trending up (> 61.8).
The background color has additional shades to differentiate a wider range of more levels…
• < 30 is dark purple
• 30 to 38.2 is purple
• 38.2 to 45 is light purple
• 45 to 55 is black
• 55 to 61.8 is light blue
• 61.8 to 70 is blue
• > 70 is dark blue
Long, Short, Close, and Reverse labels are plotted on the Chop line, which itself can be colored based on the trend. The chop line can also be hidden for a clean and compact, columnar view, which is my preferred option (see example image below).
Visual cues are intended to improve analysis and decrease interpretation time during trading, as well as to aid in understanding the purpose of this strategy and how its inclusion can benefit a comprehensive trading plan.
DMI and Trend Strength
---------------------------
To analyze trend strength, the focus should be on the ADX line and not the +DI or -DI lines. An ADX reading above 25 indicates a strong trend , while a reading below 20 indicates a weak or non-existent trend . A reading between those two values would be considered indeterminable. Though what is truly a strong trend or a weak trend depends on the financial instrument being examined; historical analysis can assist in determining appropriate values.
DMI exits trade when ADX is below the user selected key level (e.g., default is 25) and when the +/- DI lines cross (e.g., -DI > +DI exits long position and +DI > -DI exits short position).
PSAR and Trailing Stop
---------------------------
PSAR is a time and price based indicator that excels at measuring direction and duration, though not the actual strength of a trend, which is why we use this in conjunction with DMI. It is also included in this script as a trailing stop option to maximize gains during strong trends and to mitigate any false ADX strengthening signals.
This creates a parabola that is located below the candle during a Bullish trend and above during a Bearish trend. A buy or reversal is signaled when the price crosses above or below the Parabolic SAR.
Long/Short Entry
---------------------------
1. CHOP must be over 61.8 (long) or under 38.2 (short).
2. If DMI is enabled, then the ADX signal line must be above the user selected Key Level (default is 25).
3. If Sensitivity is selected, then that past candle must meet the criteria in step 1, as well as all the intermediate candles in between.
4. If "Follow Trend" is selected and PSAR is enabled, then a long position can only open when the momentum and PSAR are in an uptrend, or short when both are in a downtrend, to include all intermediate candles if the Sensitivity option is set on a past candle.
Close/Reverse
---------------------------
1. If DMI is enabled, then a close flag will be raised when the ADX signal drops below the Key Level (of 25), and -DI crosses over +DI (if long), or +DI crosses over -DI (if short).
2. If PSAR is enabled, then a close flag will be raised when the current trend state is opposite the last state.
3. If both DMI and PSAR are disabled, then a close flag will be raised if the Chop line drops under 38.2 (if long) or goes over 61.8 (if short).
4. If a Long or Short Entry is triggered on the same candle as any of the above close flags, then the position will be reversed, else the position will be closed.
Strategy Alerts
---------------------------
1. Long Entry
2. Short Entry
3. Reverse
4. Close
The provided backtest result is based on a position sizing of 10% equity with 100k initial capital. When testing SPX, disabling the DMI performed the best, but EURUSD performed poorly without it enabled, and TSLA had a small reduction in net profit. Timeframe likewise differed between commodities with TSLA performing best at 30M, SPX at 15M, and EURUSD at 4H. I do not plan on using this as a standalone strategy, but I also was expecting better results with the inclusion of EMI and PSAR to compliment the CHOP. Key elements of this script will likely be included in future, more holistic strategies.
Disclaimer
---------------------------
Past performance may not be indicative of future results. Due to various factors, including changing market conditions, the strategy may no longer perform as well as in historical backtesting. This post and the script are not intended to provide any financial advice. Trade at your own risk.
No known repainting, though there may be if an offset is introduced in the Inputs. I did my best not to code any other variables that repaint, but cannot fully attest to this fact.
Pulse Volume Commitment [JOAT]
Pulse Volume Commitment - Three-Dimensional Momentum Analysis
Introduction and Purpose
Pulse Volume Commitment is an open-source oscillator indicator that analyzes price action through three distinct dimensions: Quantity (candle count), Quality (body structure), and Commitment (volume-weighted quality). The core problem this indicator solves is that simple bullish/bearish candle counts miss important context. A market can have more green candles but still be weak if those candles have small bodies and low volume.
This indicator addresses that by requiring all three dimensions to align before generating strong signals, filtering out weak moves that lack conviction.
Why These Three Dimensions Work Together
Each dimension measures a different aspect of market conviction:
1. Quantity - Counts bullish vs bearish candles over the lookback period. Tells you WHO is winning the candle count battle.
2. Quality - Scores candles by body size relative to total range. Full-bodied candles (small wicks) indicate stronger conviction than doji-like candles. Tells you HOW decisively price is moving.
3. Commitment - Weights quality scores by volume. High-quality candles on high volume indicate institutional participation. Tells you WHETHER smart money is involved.
When all three align (e.g., more bullish candles + bullish quality + bullish commitment), the signal is significantly more reliable.
How the Calculations Work
Quantity Analysis:
int greenCount = 0
int redCount = 0
for i = 0 to lookbackPeriod - 1
if close > open
greenCount += 1
if close < open
redCount += 1
bool quantityBull = greenCount > redCount
Quality Analysis (body-to-range scoring):
for i = 0 to lookbackPeriod - 1
float candleBody = close - open // Signed (positive = bull)
float candleRange = high - low
float bodyQuality = candleRange > 0 ? (candleBody / candleRange * 100) * candleRange : 0.0
sumBodyQuality += bodyQuality
bool qualityBull = sumBodyQuality > 0
Signal Types
FULL BULL - All three dimensions bullish (Quantity + Quality + Commitment)
FULL BEAR - All three dimensions bearish
LEAN BULL/BEAR - 2 of 3 dimensions agree
MIXED - No clear consensus
STRONG BUY/SELL - Full confluence + ADX confirms trending market
ADX Integration
The indicator includes ADX (Average Directional Index) to filter signals:
- ADX >= 20 = TRENDING market (signals more reliable)
- ADX < 20 = RANGING market (signals may whipsaw)
Strong signals only trigger when full confluence occurs in a trending environment.
Dashboard Information
Quantity - BULL/BEAR/FLAT with green/red candle ratio
Quality - Directional bias based on body quality scoring
Commit - Volume-weighted commitment reading
ADX - Trend strength (TRENDING/RANGING)
Signal - Confluence status (FULL BULL/FULL BEAR/LEAN/MIXED)
Action - STRONG BUY/STRONG SELL/WAIT
How to Use This Indicator
For High-Conviction Entries:
1. Wait for FULL BULL or FULL BEAR confluence
2. Confirm ADX shows TRENDING
3. Enter when Action shows STRONG BUY or STRONG SELL
For Filtering Weak Setups:
1. Avoid entries when signal shows MIXED
2. Be cautious when ADX shows RANGING
3. Require at least 2 of 3 dimensions to agree
For Divergence Analysis:
1. Watch for Quantity bullish but Commitment bearish (distribution)
2. Watch for Quantity bearish but Commitment bullish (accumulation)
Input Parameters
Lookback Period (9) - Bars to analyze for all three dimensions
ADX Smoothing (14) - Period for ADX calculation
ADX DI Length (14) - Period for directional indicators
Timeframe Recommendations
15m-1H: Good for intraday momentum analysis
4H-Daily: Best for swing trading confluence
Lookback period may need adjustment for different timeframes
Limitations
Lookback period affects signal responsiveness vs reliability tradeoff
Volume data quality varies by exchange
ADX filter may cause missed entries in early trends
Works best on liquid instruments with consistent volume

Market Outlook Score (MOS)Overview
The "Market Outlook Score (MOS)" is a custom technical indicator designed for TradingView, written in Pine Script version 6. It provides a quantitative assessment of market conditions by aggregating multiple factors, including trend strength across different timeframes, directional movement (via ADX), momentum (via RSI changes), volume dynamics, and volatility stability (via ATR). The MOS is calculated as a weighted score that ranges typically between -1 and +1 (though it can exceed these bounds in extreme conditions), where positive values suggest bullish (long) opportunities, negative values indicate bearish (short) setups, and values near zero imply neutral or indecisive markets.
This indicator is particularly useful for traders seeking a holistic "outlook" score to gauge potential entry points or market bias. It overlays on a separate pane (non-overlay mode) and visualizes the score through horizontal threshold lines and dynamic labels showing the numeric MOS value along with a simple trading decision ("Long", "Short", or "Neutral"). The script avoids using the plot function for compatibility reasons (e.g., potential TradingView bugs) and instead relies on hline for static lines and label.new for per-bar annotations.
Key features:
Multi-Timeframe Analysis: Incorporates slope data from 5-minute, 15-minute, and 30-minute charts to capture short-term trends.
Trend and Strength Integration: Uses ADX to weight trend bias, ensuring stronger signals in trending markets.
Momentum and Volume: Includes RSI momentum impulses and volume deviations for added confirmation.
Volatility Adjustment: Factors in ATR changes to assess market stability.
Customizable Inputs: Allows users to tweak periods for lookback, ADX, and ATR.
Decision Labels: Automatically classifies the MOS into actionable categories with visual labels.
This indicator is best suited for intraday or swing trading on volatile assets like stocks, forex, or cryptocurrencies. It does not generate buy/sell signals directly but can be combined with other tools (e.g., moving averages or oscillators) for comprehensive strategies.
Inputs
The script provides three user-configurable inputs via TradingView's input panel:
Lookback Period (lookback):
Type: Integer
Default: 20
Range: Minimum 10, Maximum 50
Purpose: Defines the number of bars used in slope calculations for trend analysis. A shorter lookback makes the indicator more sensitive to recent price action, while a longer one smooths out noise for longer-term trends.
ADX Period (adxPeriod):
Type: Integer
Default: 14
Range: Minimum 5, Maximum 30
Purpose: Sets the smoothing period for the Average Directional Index (ADX) and its components (DI+ and DI-). Standard value is 14, but shorter periods increase responsiveness, and longer ones reduce false signals.
ATR Period (atrPeriod):
Type: Integer
Default: 14
Range: Minimum 5, Maximum 30
Purpose: Determines the period for the Average True Range (ATR) calculation, which measures volatility. Adjust this to match your trading timeframe—shorter for scalping, longer for positional trading.
These inputs allow customization without editing the code, making the indicator adaptable to different market conditions or user preferences.
Core Calculations
The MOS is computed through a series of steps, blending trend, momentum, volume, and volatility metrics. Here's a breakdown:
Multi-Timeframe Slopes:
The script fetches data from higher timeframes (5m, 15m, 30m) using request.security.
Slope calculation: For each timeframe, it computes the linear regression slope of price over the lookback period using the formula:
textslope = correlation(close, bar_index, lookback) * stdev(close, lookback) / stdev(bar_index, lookback)
This measures the rate of price change, where positive slopes indicate uptrends and negative slopes indicate downtrends.
Variables: slope5m, slope15m, slope30m.
ATR (Average True Range):
Calculated using ta.atr(atrPeriod).
Represents average volatility over the specified period. Used later to derive volatility stability.
ADX (Average Directional Index):
A detailed, manual implementation (not using built-in ta.adx for customization):
Computes upward movement (upMove = high - high ) and downward movement (downMove = low - low).
Derives +DM (Plus Directional Movement) and -DM (Minus Directional Movement) by filtering non-relevant moves.
Smooths true range (trur = ta.rma(ta.tr(true), adxPeriod)).
Calculates +DI and -DI: plusDI = 100 * ta.rma(plusDM, adxPeriod) / trur, similarly for minusDI.
DX: dx = 100 * abs(plusDI - minusDI) / max(plusDI + minusDI, 0.0001).
ADX: adx = ta.rma(dx, adxPeriod).
ADX values above 25 typically indicate strong trends; here, it's normalized (divided by 50) to influence the trend bias.
Volume Delta (5m Timeframe):
Fetches 5m volume: volume_5m = request.security(syminfo.tickerid, "5", volume, lookahead=barmerge.lookahead_on).
Computes a 12-period SMA of volume: avgVolume = ta.sma(volume_5m, 12).
Delta: (volume_5m - avgVolume) / avgVolume (or 0 if avgVolume is zero).
This measures relative volume spikes, where positive deltas suggest increased interest (bullish) and negative suggest waning activity (bearish).
MOS Components and Final Calculation:
Trend Bias: Average of the three slopes, normalized by close price and scaled by 100, then weighted by ADX influence: (slope5m + slope15m + slope30m) / 3 / close * 100 * (adx / 50).
Emphasizes trends in strong ADX conditions.
Momentum Impulse: Change in 5m RSI(14) over 1 bar, divided by 50: ta.change(request.security(syminfo.tickerid, "5", ta.rsi(close, 14), lookahead=barmerge.lookahead_on), 1) / 50.
Captures short-term momentum shifts.
Volatility Clarity: 1 - ta.change(atr, 1) / max(atr, 0.0001).
Measures ATR stability; values near 1 indicate low volatility changes (clearer trends), while lower values suggest erratic markets.
MOS Formula: Weighted average:
textmos = (0.35 * trendBias + 0.25 * momentumImpulse + 0.2 * volumeDelta + 0.2 * volatilityClarity)
Weights prioritize trend (35%) and momentum (25%), with volume and volatility at 20% each. These can be adjusted in code for experimentation.
Trading Decision:
A variable mosDecision starts as "Neutral".
If mos > 0.15, set to "Long".
If mos < -0.15, set to "Short".
Thresholds (0.15 and -0.15) are hardcoded but can be modified.
Visualization and Outputs
Threshold Lines (using hline):
Long Threshold: Horizontal dashed green line at +0.15.
Short Threshold: Horizontal dashed red line at -0.15.
Neutral Line: Horizontal dashed gray line at 0.
These provide visual reference points for MOS interpretation.
Dynamic Labels (using label.new):
Placed at each bar's index and MOS value.
Text: Formatted MOS value (e.g., "0.2345") followed by a newline and the decision (e.g., "Long").
Style: Downward-pointing label with gray background and white text for readability.
This replaces a traditional plot line, showing exact values and decisions per bar without cluttering the chart.
The indicator appears in a separate pane below the main price chart, making it easy to monitor alongside price action.
Usage Instructions
Adding to TradingView:
Copy the script into TradingView's Pine Script editor.
Save and add to your chart via the "Indicators" menu.
Select a symbol and timeframe (e.g., 1-minute for intraday).
Interpretation:
Long Signal: MOS > 0.15 – Consider bullish positions if supported by other indicators.
Short Signal: MOS < -0.15 – Potential bearish setups.
Neutral: Between -0.15 and 0.15 – Avoid trades or wait for confirmation.
Watch for MOS crossings of thresholds for momentum shifts.
Combine with price patterns, support/resistance, or volume for better accuracy.
Limitations and Considerations:
Lookahead Bias: Uses barmerge.lookahead_on for multi-timeframe data, which may introduce minor forward-looking bias in backtesting (use with caution).
No Alerts Built-In: Add custom alerts via TradingView's alert system based on MOS conditions.
Performance: Tested for compatibility; may require adjustments for illiquid assets or extreme volatility.
Backtesting: Use TradingView's strategy tester to evaluate historical performance, but remember past results don't guarantee future outcomes.
Customization: Edit weights in the MOS formula or thresholds to fit your strategy.
This indicator distills complex market data into a single score, aiding decision-making while encouraging users to verify signals with additional analysis. If you need modifications, such as restoring plot functionality or adding features, provide details for further refinement.
Smart Trend Lines [The_lurker]
Smart Trend Lines
A multi-level trend classifier that detects bullish and bearish conditions using a methodology based on drawing trend lines—main, intermediate, and short-term—by identifying peaks and troughs. The tool highlights trend strength by applying filters such as the Average Directional Index (ADX) (A), Relative Strength Index (RSI) (R), and Volume (V), making it easier to interpret trend strength. The filter markers (V, A, R) in the Smart Trend Lines indicator are powerful tools for assessing the reliability of breakouts. Breakouts containing are the most reliable, as they indicate strong volume support, trend strength, and favorable momentum. Breakouts with partial filters (such as or ) require additional confirmation, while breakouts without filters ( ) should be avoided unless supported by other strong signals. By understanding the meaning of each filter and the market context.
Core Functionality
1. Trend Line Types
The indicator generates three distinct trend line categories, each serving a specific analytical purpose:
Main Trend Lines: These are long-term trend lines designed to capture significant market trends. They are calculated based on pivot points over a user-defined period (default: 50 bars). Main trend lines are ideal for identifying macro-level support and resistance zones.
Mid Trend Lines: These are medium-term trend lines (default: 21 bars) that focus on intermediate price movements. They provide a balance between short-term fluctuations and long-term trends, suitable for swing trading strategies.
Short Trend Lines: These are short-term trend lines (default: 9 bars) that track rapid price changes. They are particularly useful for scalping or day trading, highlighting immediate support and resistance levels.
Each trend line type can be independently enabled or disabled, allowing traders to tailor the indicator to their preferred timeframes.
2. Breakout Detection
The indicator employs a robust breakout detection system that identifies when the price crosses a trend line, signaling a potential trend reversal or continuation. Breakouts are validated using the following filters:
ADX Filter: The Average Directional Index (ADX) measures trend strength. A user-defined threshold (default: 20) ensures that breakouts occur during strong trends, reducing false signals in range-bound markets.
RSI Filter: The Relative Strength Index (RSI) identifies overbought or oversold conditions. Breakouts are filtered based on RSI thresholds (default: 65 for overbought, 35 for oversold) to avoid signals in extreme market conditions.
Volume Filter: Breakouts are confirmed only when trading volume exceeds a moving average (default: 20 bars) and aligns with the breakout direction (e.g., higher volume on bullish breakouts when the candle closes higher).
Breakout events are marked with labels on the chart, indicating the type of trend line broken (Main, Mid, or Short) and the filters satisfied (Volume, ADX, RSI). Alerts are triggered for each breakout, providing real-time notifications.
3. Customization Options
The indicator offers extensive customization through input settings, organized into logical groups for ease of use:
Main Trend Line Settings
Length: Defines the number of bars used to calculate pivot points (default: 50).
Bullish Color: Color for upward-sloping (bullish) main trend lines (default: green).
Bearish Color: Color for downward-sloping (bearish) main trend lines (default: red).
Style: Line style options include solid, dashed, or dotted (default: solid).
Mid Trend Line Settings
Length: Number of bars for mid-term pivot points (default: 21).
Show/Hide: Toggle visibility of mid trend lines (default: enabled).
Bullish Color: Color for bullish mid trend lines (default: lime).
Bearish Color: Color for bearish mid trend lines (default: maroon).
Style: Line style (default: dashed).
Short Trend Line Settings
Length: Number of bars for short-term pivot points (default: 9).
Show/Hide: Toggle visibility of short trend lines (default: enabled).
Bullish Color: Color for bullish short trend lines (default: teal).
Bearish Color: Color for bearish short trend lines (default: purple).
Style: Line style (default: dotted).
General Display Settings
Break Check Price: Selects the price type for breakout detection (Close, High, or Low; default: Close).
Show Previous Trendlines: Option to display historical main trend lines (default: disabled).
Label Size: Size of breakout labels (Tiny, Small, Normal, Large, Huge; default: Small).
Filter Settings
ADX Threshold: Minimum ADX value for trend strength confirmation (default: 25).
Volume MA Period: Period for the volume moving average (default: 20).
RSI Filter: Enable/disable RSI filtering (default: enabled).
RSI Upper Threshold: Upper RSI limit for overbought conditions (default: 65).
RSI Lower Threshold: Lower RSI limit for oversold conditions (default: 35).
4. Technical Calculations
The indicator relies on several technical calculations to ensure accuracy:
Pivot Points: Pivot highs and lows are detected using the ta.pivothigh and ta.pivotlow functions, with separate lengths for Main, Mid, and Short trend lines.
Slope Calculation: The slope of each trend line is calculated as the change in price divided by the change in bar index between two pivot points.
ADX Calculation: ADX is computed using a 14-period Directional Movement Index (DMI), with smoothing over 14 bars.
RSI Calculation: RSI is calculated over a 14-period lookback using the ta.rsi function.
Volume Moving Average: A simple moving average (SMA) of volume is used to determine if current volume exceeds the average.
5. Strict Mode Validation
To ensure the reliability of trend lines, the indicator employs a strict mode check:
For bearish trend lines, all prices between pivot points must remain below the projected trend line.
For bullish trend lines, all prices must remain above the projected trend line.
Post-pivot break checks ensure that no breakouts occur between pivot points, enhancing the validity of the trend line.
6. Trend Line Extension
Trend lines are dynamically extended forward until a breakout occurs. The extension logic:
Projects the trend line using the calculated slope.
Continuously validates the extension using strict mode checks.
Stops extension upon a breakout, fixing the trend line at the breakout point.
7. Alerts and Labels
Labels: Breakout labels are placed above (for bearish breakouts) or below (for bullish breakouts) the price bar. Labels include:
A prefix indicating the trend line type (B for Main, M for Mid, S for Short).
A suffix showing satisfied filters (e.g., for Volume, ADX, and RSI).
Alerts: Each breakout triggers a one-time alert per bar close, with a descriptive message indicating the trend line type and filters met.
Detailed Code Breakdown
1. Initialization and Inputs
The script begins by defining the indicator with indicator('Smart Trend Lines ', overlay = true), ensuring it overlays on the price chart. Input settings are grouped into categories (Main, Mid, Short, General Display, Filters) for user convenience. Each input includes a tooltip in both English and Arabic, enhancing accessibility.
2. Technical Indicator Calculations
Volume MA: Calculated using ta.sma(volume, volPeriod) to compare current volume against the average.
ADX: Computed using custom dirmov and adx functions, which calculate the Directional Movement Index and smooth it over 14 periods.
RSI: Calculated with ta.rsi(close, rsiPeriod) over 14 periods.
Price Selection: The priceToCheck function selects the price type (Close, High, or Low) for breakout detection.
3. Pivot Detection
Pivot points are detected using ta.pivothigh and ta.pivotlow for each trend line type. The lookback period is set to the respective trend line length (e.g., 50 for Main, 21 for Mid, 9 for Short).
4. Trend Line Logic
For each trend line type (Main, Mid, Short):
Bearish Trend Lines: Identified when two consecutive pivot highs form a downward slope. The script validates the trend line using strict mode and post-pivot break checks.
Bullish Trend Lines: Identified when two consecutive pivot lows form an upward slope, with similar validation.
Trend lines are drawn using line.new, with separate lines for the initial segment (between pivots) and the extended segment (from the second pivot forward).
5. Breakout Detection and Labeling
Breakouts are detected when the selected price crosses the trend line level. The script checks:
Volume conditions (above average and aligned with candle direction).
ADX condition (above threshold).
RSI condition (within thresholds if enabled). Labels are created with label.new, and alerts are triggered with alert.
6. Trend Line Extension
The extendTrendline function dynamically updates the trend line’s endpoint unless a breakout occurs. It uses strict mode checks to ensure the trend line remains valid.
7. Previous Trend Lines
If enabled, previous main trend lines are stored in arrays (previousBearishStartLines, previousBullishTrendLines, etc.) and displayed on the chart, providing historical context.

Smart Liquidity Wave [The_lurker]"Smart Liquidity Wave" هو مؤشر تحليلي متطور يهدف لتحديد نقاط الدخول والخروج المثلى بناءً على تحليل السيولة، قوة الاتجاه، وإشارات السوق المفلترة. يتميز المؤشر بقدرته على تصنيف الأدوات المالية إلى أربع فئات سيولة (ضعيفة، متوسطة، عالية، عالية جدًا)، مع تطبيق شروط مخصصة لكل فئة تعتمد على تحليل الموجات السعرية، الفلاتر المتعددة، ومؤشر ADX.
فكرة المؤشر
الفكرة الأساسية هي الجمع بين قياس السيولة اليومية الثابتة وتحليل ديناميكي للسعر باستخدام فلاتر متقدمة لتوليد إشارات دقيقة. المؤشر يركز على تصفية الضوضاء في السوق من خلال طبقات متعددة من التحليل، مما يجعله أداة ذكية تتكيف مع الأدوات المالية المختلفة بناءً على مستوى سيولتها.
طريقة عمل المؤشر
1- قياس السيولة:
يتم حساب السيولة باستخدام متوسط حجم التداول على مدى 14 يومًا مضروبًا في سعر الإغلاق، ويتم ذلك دائمًا على الإطار الزمني اليومي لضمان ثبات القيمة بغض النظر عن الإطار الزمني المستخدم في الرسم البياني.
يتم تصنيف السيولة إلى:
ضعيفة: أقل من 5 ملايين (قابل للتعديل).
متوسطة: من 5 إلى 20 مليون.
عالية: من 20 إلى 50 مليون.
عالية جدًا: أكثر من 50 مليون.
هذا الثبات في القياس يضمن أن تصنيف السيولة لا يتغير مع تغير الإطار الزمني، مما يوفر أساسًا موثوقًا للإشارات.
2- تحليل الموجات السعرية:
يعتمد المؤشر على تحليل الموجات باستخدام متوسطات متحركة متعددة الأنواع (مثل SMA، EMA، WMA، HMA، وغيرها) يمكن للمستخدم اختيارها وتخصيص فتراتها ، يتم دمج هذا التحليل مع مؤشرات إضافية مثل RSI (مؤشر القوة النسبية) وMFI (مؤشر تدفق الأموال) بوزن محدد (40% للموجات، 30% لكل من RSI وMFI) للحصول على تقييم شامل للاتجاه.
3- الفلاتر وطريقة عملها:
المؤشر يستخدم نظام فلاتر متعدد الطبقات لتصفية الإشارات وتقليل الضوضاء، وهي من أبرز الجوانب المخفية التي تعزز دقته:
الفلتر الرئيسي (Main Filter):
يعمل على تنعيم التغيرات السعرية السريعة باستخدام معادلة رياضية تعتمد على تحليل الإشارات (Signal Processing).
يتم تطبيقه على السعر لاستخراج الاتجاهات الأساسية بعيدًا عن التقلبات العشوائية، مع فترة زمنية قابلة للتعديل (افتراضي: 30).
يستخدم تقنية مشابهة للفلاتر عالية التردد (High-Pass Filter) للتركيز على الحركات الكبيرة.
الفلتر الفرعي (Sub Filter):
يعمل كطبقة ثانية للتصفية، مع فترة أقصر (افتراضي: 12)، لضبط الإشارات بدقة أكبر.
يستخدم معادلات تعتمد على الترددات المنخفضة للتأكد من أن الإشارات الناتجة تعكس تغيرات حقيقية وليست مجرد ضوضاء.
إشارة الزناد (Signal Trigger):
يتم تطبيق متوسط متحرك على نتائج الفلتر الرئيسي لتوليد خط إشارة (Signal Line) يُقارن مع عتبات محددة للدخول والخروج.
يمكن تعديل فترة الزناد (افتراضي: 3 للدخول، 5 للخروج) لتسريع أو تبطيء الإشارات.
الفلتر المربع (Square Filter):
خاصية مخفية تُفعّل افتراضيًا تعزز دقة الفلاتر عن طريق تضييق نطاق التذبذبات المسموح بها، مما يقلل من الإشارات العشوائية في الأسواق المتقلبة.
4- تصفية الإشارات باستخدام ADX:
يتم استخدام مؤشر ADX كفلتر نهائي للتأكد من قوة الاتجاه قبل إصدار الإشارة:
ضعيفة ومتوسطة: دخول عندما يكون ADX فوق 40، خروج فوق 50.
عالية: دخول فوق 40، خروج فوق 55.
عالية جدًا: دخول فوق 35، خروج فوق 38.
هذه العتبات قابلة للتعديل، مما يسمح بتكييف المؤشر مع استراتيجيات مختلفة.
5- توليد الإشارات:
الدخول: يتم إصدار إشارة شراء عندما تنخفض خطوط الإشارة إلى ما دون عتبة محددة (مثل -9) مع تحقق شروط الفلاتر، السيولة، وADX.
الخروج: يتم إصدار إشارة بيع عندما ترتفع الخطوط فوق عتبة (مثل 109 أو 106 حسب الفئة) مع تحقق الشروط الأخرى.
تُعرض الإشارات بألوان مميزة (أزرق للدخول، برتقالي للضعيفة والمتوسطة، أحمر للعالية والعالية جدًا) وبثلاثة أحجام (صغير، متوسط، كبير).
6- عرض النتائج:
يظهر مستوى السيولة الحالي في جدول في أعلى يمين الرسم البياني، مما يتيح للمستخدم معرفة فئة الأصل بسهولة.
7- دعم التنبيهات:
تنبيهات فورية لكل فئة سيولة، مما يسهل التداول الآلي أو اليدوي.
%%%%% الجوانب المخفية في الكود %%%%%
معادلات الفلاتر المتقدمة: يستخدم المؤشر معادلات رياضية معقدة مستوحاة من معالجة الإشارات لتنعيم البيانات واستخراج الاتجاهات، مما يجعله أكثر دقة من المؤشرات التقليدية.
التكيف التلقائي: النظام يضبط نفسه داخليًا بناءً على التغيرات في السعر والحجم، مع عوامل تصحيح مخفية (مثل معامل التنعيم في الفلاتر) للحفاظ على الاستقرار.
التوزيع الموزون: الدمج بين الموجات، RSI، وMFI يتم بأوزان محددة (40%، 30%، 30%) لضمان توازن التحليل، وهي تفاصيل غير ظاهرة مباشرة للمستخدم لكنها تؤثر على النتائج.
الفلتر المربع: خيار مخفي يتم تفعيله افتراضيًا لتضييق نطاق الإشارات، مما يقلل من التشتت في الأسواق ذات التقلبات العالية.
مميزات المؤشر
1- فلاتر متعددة الطبقات: تضمن تصفية الضوضاء وإنتاج إشارات موثوقة فقط.
2- ثبات السيولة: قياس السيولة اليومي يجعل التصنيف متسقًا عبر الإطارات الزمنية.
3- تخصيص شامل: يمكن تعديل حدود السيولة، عتبات ADX، فترات الفلاتر، وأنواع المتوسطات المتحركة.
4- إشارات مرئية واضحة: تصميم بصري يسهل التفسير مع تنبيهات فورية.
5- تقليل الإشارات الخاطئة: الجمع بين الفلاتر وADX يعزز الدقة ويقلل من التشتت.

#### **What is the Smart Liquidity Wave Indicator?**
"Smart Liquidity Wave" is an advanced analytical indicator designed to identify optimal entry and exit points based on liquidity analysis, trend strength, and filtered market signals. It stands out with its ability to categorize financial instruments into four liquidity levels (Weak, Medium, High, Very High), applying customized conditions for each category based on price wave analysis, multi-layered filters, and the ADX (Average Directional Index).
#### **Concept of the Indicator**
The core idea is to combine a stable daily liquidity measurement with dynamic price analysis using sophisticated filters to generate precise signals. The indicator focuses on eliminating market noise through multiple analytical layers, making it an intelligent tool that adapts to various financial instruments based on their liquidity levels.
#### **How the Indicator Works**
1. **Liquidity Measurement:**
- Liquidity is calculated using the 14-day average trading volume multiplied by the closing price, always based on the daily timeframe to ensure value consistency regardless of the chart’s timeframe.
- Liquidity is classified as:
- **Weak:** Less than 5 million (adjustable).
- **Medium:** 5 to 20 million.
- **High:** 20 to 50 million.
- **Very High:** Over 50 million.
- This consistency in measurement ensures that liquidity classification remains unchanged across different timeframes, providing a reliable foundation for signals.
2. **Price Wave Analysis:**
- The indicator relies on wave analysis using various types of moving averages (e.g., SMA, EMA, WMA, HMA, etc.), which users can select and customize in terms of periods.
- This analysis is integrated with additional indicators like RSI (Relative Strength Index) and MFI (Money Flow Index), weighted specifically (40% waves, 30% RSI, 30% MFI) to provide a comprehensive trend assessment.
3. **Filters and Their Functionality:**
- The indicator employs a multi-layered filtering system to refine signals and reduce noise, a key hidden feature that enhances its accuracy:
- **Main Filter:**
- Smooths rapid price fluctuations using a mathematical equation rooted in signal processing techniques.
- Applied to price data to extract core trends away from random volatility, with an adjustable period (default: 30).
- Utilizes a technique similar to high-pass filters to focus on significant movements.
- **Sub Filter:**
- Acts as a secondary filtering layer with a shorter period (default: 12) for finer signal tuning.
- Employs low-frequency-based equations to ensure resulting signals reflect genuine changes rather than mere noise.
- **Signal Trigger:**
- Applies a moving average to the main filter’s output to generate a signal line, compared against predefined entry and exit thresholds.
- Trigger period is adjustable (default: 3 for entry, 5 for exit) to speed up or slow down signals.
- **Square Filter:**
- A hidden feature activated by default, enhancing filter precision by narrowing the range of permissible oscillations, reducing random signals in volatile markets.
4. **Signal Filtering with ADX:**
- ADX is used as a final filter to confirm trend strength before issuing signals:
- **Weak and Medium:** Entry when ADX exceeds 40, exit above 50.
- **High:** Entry above 40, exit above 55.
- **Very High:** Entry above 35, exit above 38.
- These thresholds are adjustable, allowing the indicator to adapt to different trading strategies.
5. **Signal Generation:**
- **Entry:** A buy signal is triggered when signal lines drop below a specific threshold (e.g., -9) and conditions for filters, liquidity, and ADX are met.
- **Exit:** A sell signal is issued when signal lines rise above a threshold (e.g., 109 or 106, depending on the category) with all conditions satisfied.
- Signals are displayed in distinct colors (blue for entry, orange for Weak/Medium, red for High/Very High) and three sizes (small, medium, large).
6. **Result Display:**
- The current liquidity level is shown in a table at the top-right of the chart, enabling users to easily identify the asset’s category.
7. **Alert Support:**
- Instant alerts are provided for each liquidity category, facilitating both automated and manual trading.
#### **Hidden Aspects in the Code**
- **Advanced Filter Equations:** The indicator uses complex mathematical formulas inspired by signal processing to smooth data and extract trends, making it more precise than traditional indicators.
- **Automatic Adaptation:** The system internally adjusts based on price and volume changes, with hidden correction factors (e.g., smoothing coefficients in filters) to maintain stability.
- **Weighted Distribution:** The integration of waves, RSI, and MFI uses fixed weights (40%, 30%, 30%) for balanced analysis, a detail not directly visible but impactful on results.
- **Square Filter:** A hidden option, enabled by default, narrows signal range to minimize dispersion in high-volatility markets.
#### **Indicator Features**
1. **Multi-Layered Filters:** Ensures noise reduction and delivers only reliable signals.
2. **Liquidity Stability:** Daily liquidity measurement keeps classification consistent across timeframes.
3. **Comprehensive Customization:** Allows adjustments to liquidity thresholds, ADX levels, filter periods, and moving average types.
4. **Clear Visual Signals:** User-friendly design with easy-to-read visuals and instant alerts.
5. **Reduced False Signals:** Combining filters and ADX enhances accuracy and minimizes clutter.

GC Strategy with Trend Filter and Sudden Move Profit TakingBYBIT:BTCUSDT.P 15M
Situation Assessment with Three Moving Averages
The strategy uses the crossover of the 5SMA and 25SMA as entry signals.
Additionally, the 75SMA is used as a filter. Long entries are only allowed when the price is above the 75SMA, and short entries are only allowed when the price is below the 75SMA.
ADX Filter
The Average Directional Index (ADX) is used to check the strength of the trend. Entry signals are only activated when the ADX is above 20. This ensures that trades are only executed when the trend is strong.
Sudden Move Detection
The strategy detects sudden price movements. If a sudden move occurs, the position is closed to lock in profits.
Entry
Long Entry: When the 5SMA crosses above the 25SMA, the price is above the 75SMA, and the ADX is above 20.
Short Entry: When the 5SMA crosses below the 25SMA, the price is below the 75SMA, and the ADX is above 20.
Exit
Positions are closed if a sudden move occurs. Positions are also closed if an opposing entry signal is generated.

Within hours, the market must digest new information about a company's profits, revenue, and future outlook. Analysts scramble to update their models. Institutions rebalance positions. Retail traders react to headlines.
This chaos creates a well-documented phenomenon called Post-Earnings Announcement Drift (PEAD): stocks that beat expectations tend to keep rising, while those that miss tend to keep falling - often for weeks after the initial announcement. Academic research has confirmed this pattern persists across decades and markets.
But not every earnings surprise is equal. A company that beats estimates by 5 cents might move very differently than one that beats by 5 cents with unusually high volume, or one where both earnings AND revenue exceeded expectations. Raw numbers alone don't tell the full story.

HOW "STANDARDIZED UNEXPECTED" METRICS CUT THROUGH THE NOISE
═══════════════════════════════════════════════════════════════
This screener uses a statistical technique to measure how "surprising" a result truly is - not just whether it beat or missed, but how unusual that beat or miss was compared to the company's own history.
The core idea: convert raw surprises into Z-scores.
A Z-score answers the question: "How many standard deviations away from normal is this result?"
- A Z-score of 0 means the result was exactly average
- A Z-score of +2 means the result was unusually high (better than ~95% of historical results)
- A Z-score of -2 means the result was unusually low
By standardizing surprises this way, we can compare apples to apples. A small-cap biotech's $0.02 beat might actually be more significant than a mega-cap's $0.50 beat, once we account for each company's typical variability.
This screener applies this standardization to three dimensions: earnings (SUE), revenue (SURGE), and volume (SUV).
═══════════════════════════════════════════════════════════════
THE 9 SCREENING CRITERIA
═══════════════════════════════════════════════════════════════
─────────────────────────────────────────
1. SUE (Standardized Unexpected Earnings)
─────────────────────────────────────────
WHAT IT IS:
SUE measures how surprising an earnings result was, adjusted for the company's historical forecast accuracy.
Calculation: Take the earnings surprise (actual EPS minus analyst estimate), then divide by the standard deviation of past forecast errors. This uses a rolling window of the last 8 quarters by default.
Formula: SUE = (Actual EPS - Estimated EPS) / Standard Deviation of Past Errors
HOW TO INTERPRET:
- SUE > +2.0: Strongly positive surprise - earnings beat expectations by an unusually large margin. These stocks often continue drifting higher.
- SUE between 0 and +2.0: Modest positive surprise - beat expectations, but within normal range.
- SUE between -2.0 and 0: Modest negative surprise - missed expectations, but within normal range.
- SUE < -2.0: Strongly negative surprise - significant miss. These stocks often continue drifting lower.
For long positions, look for SUE values above +2.0, ideally combined with positive SURGE.
─────────────────────────────────────────
2. SURGE (Standardized Unexpected Revenue)
─────────────────────────────────────────
WHAT IT IS:
SURGE applies the same standardization technique to revenue surprises. While earnings can be manipulated through accounting choices, revenue is harder to fake - it represents actual sales.
Calculation: Take the revenue surprise (actual revenue minus analyst estimate), then divide by the standard deviation of past revenue forecast errors.
Formula: SURGE = (Actual Revenue - Estimated Revenue) / Standard Deviation of Past Errors
HOW TO INTERPRET:
- SURGE > +1.5: Strongly positive revenue surprise - the company sold significantly more than expected.
- SURGE between 0 and +1.5: Modest positive surprise.
- SURGE < 0: Revenue missed expectations.
The most powerful signals occur when BOTH SUE and SURGE are positive and elevated (ideally SUE > 2.0 AND SURGE > 1.5). This indicates the company beat on both profitability AND top-line growth - a much stronger signal than either alone.
When SUE and SURGE diverge significantly (e.g., high SUE but negative SURGE), treat with caution - the earnings beat may have come from cost-cutting rather than genuine growth.
─────────────────────────────────────────
3. SUV (Standardized Unexpected Volume)
─────────────────────────────────────────
WHAT IT IS:
SUV detects unusual trading volume after accounting for how volatile the stock is. More volatile stocks naturally have higher volume, so raw volume comparisons can be misleading.
Calculation: This uses regression analysis to model the expected relationship between price volatility and volume. The "unexpected" volume is the residual - how much actual volume deviated from what the model predicted. This residual is then standardized into a Z-score.
In plain terms: SUV asks "Given how much this stock typically moves, is today's volume unusually high or low?"
HOW TO INTERPRET:
- SUV > +2.0: Exceptionally high volume relative to the stock's volatility. This often signals institutional activity - big players moving in or out.
- SUV between +1.0 and +2.0: Elevated volume - above normal interest.
- SUV between -1.0 and +1.0: Normal volume range.
- SUV < -1.0: Unusually quiet - less activity than expected.
High SUV combined with positive price movement suggests accumulation (buying). High SUV combined with negative price movement suggests distribution (selling).
─────────────────────────────────────────
4. % From D0 Close
─────────────────────────────────────────
WHAT IT IS:
This measures how far the current price has moved from the closing price on its initial earnings reaction day (D0). The "reaction day" is the first trading day that fully reflects the earnings news - typically the day after an after-hours announcement, or the announcement day itself for pre-market releases.
Calculation: ((Current Price - D0 Close) / D0 Close) × 100
HOW TO INTERPRET:
- Positive values: Stock has gained ground since earnings. The higher the percentage, the stronger the post-earnings drift.
- 0% to +5%: Modest positive drift - earnings were received well but momentum is limited.
- +5% to +15%: Strong drift - buyers continue accumulating.
- > +15%: Exceptional drift - significant institutional interest likely.
- Negative values: Stock has given back gains or extended losses since earnings. May indicate the initial reaction was overdone, or that sentiment is deteriorating.
This metric is most meaningful within the first 5-20 trading days after earnings. Extended drift (maintaining gains over 2+ weeks) is a stronger signal than a quick spike that fades.
─────────────────────────────────────────
5. # Pocket Pivots
─────────────────────────────────────────
WHAT IT IS:
Pocket Pivots are a volume-based pattern developed by Chris Kacher and Gil Morales. They identify days where institutional buyers are likely accumulating shares without causing obvious breakouts.
Calculation: A Pocket Pivot occurs when:
- The stock closes higher than it opened (up day)
- The stock closes higher than the previous day's close
- Today's volume exceeds the highest down-day volume of the prior 10 trading sessions
The screener counts how many Pocket Pivots have occurred since the earnings announcement.
HOW TO INTERPRET:
- 0 Pocket Pivots: No detected institutional accumulation patterns since earnings.
- 1-2 Pocket Pivots: Some institutional buying interest - worth monitoring.
- 3+ Pocket Pivots: Strong accumulation signal - institutions appear to be building positions.
Pocket Pivots are most significant when they occur:
- Immediately following earnings announcements
- Near moving average support (10-day, 21-day, or 50-day)
- On above-average volume
- After a period of price consolidation
Multiple Pocket Pivots in a short period suggest sustained institutional demand, not just a one-day event.
─────────────────────────────────────────
6. ADX/DI (Trend Strength and Direction)
─────────────────────────────────────────
WHAT IT IS:
ADX (Average Directional Index) measures trend strength regardless of direction. DI (Directional Indicator) shows whether the trend is bullish or bearish.
Calculation: ADX uses a 14-period lookback to measure how directional (trending) price movement is. Values range from 0 to 100. The +DI and -DI components compare upward and downward movement.
The screener shows:
- ADX value (trend strength)
- Direction indicator: "+" for bullish (price trending up), "-" for bearish (price trending down)
HOW TO INTERPRET:
- ADX < 20: Weak trend - the stock is moving sideways, choppy. Not ideal for momentum trading.
- ADX 20-25: Trend is emerging - potentially starting a directional move.
- ADX 25-40: Strong trend - clear directional movement. Good for momentum plays.
- ADX > 40: Very strong trend - powerful move in progress, but may be extended.
The direction indicator (+/-) tells you which way:
- "25+" means ADX of 25 with bullish direction (uptrend)
- "25-" means ADX of 25 with bearish direction (downtrend)
For post-earnings plays, ideal setups show ADX rising above 25 with positive direction, confirming the earnings reaction is developing into a sustained trend rather than a one-day spike.
─────────────────────────────────────────
7. Institutional Buying PASS
─────────────────────────────────────────
WHAT IT IS:
This proprietary composite indicator detects patterns consistent with institutional accumulation at three stages after earnings:
EARLY (Days 0-4): Looks for "large block" buying on the earnings reaction day (exceptionally high volume with a close in the upper half of the day's range) combined with follow-through buying on the next day.
MID (Days 5-9): Checks for sustained elevated volume (averaging 1.5x the 20-day average) combined with positive drift and consistent upward price movement (more up days than down days).
LATE (Days 10+): Detects either visible accumulation (positive drift with high volume) OR stealth accumulation (positive drift with unusually LOW volume - suggesting smart money is quietly building positions without attracting attention).
HOW TO INTERPRET:
- Check mark/value of '1': Institutional buying pattern detected. The stock shows characteristics consistent with large players accumulating shares.
- X mark/value of '0': No institutional buying pattern detected. This doesn't mean institutions aren't buying - just that the typical footprints aren't visible.
A passing grade here adds conviction to other bullish signals. Institutions have research teams, information advantages, and long time horizons. When their footprints appear in the data, it often precedes sustained moves.
Important: This is a pattern detection tool, not a guarantee. Always combine with other analysis.
─────────────────────────────────────────
8. Strong ATR Drift PASS
─────────────────────────────────────────
WHAT IT IS:
This measures whether the stock has drifted significantly relative to its own volatility. Instead of asking "did it move 10%?", it asks "did it move more than 1.5 ATRs?"
ATR (Average True Range) measures a stock's typical daily movement. A volatile stock might move 5% daily, while a stable stock might move 0.5%. Using ATR normalizes for this difference.
Calculation:
ATR Drift = (Current Close - D0 Close) / D0 ATR in dollars
The indicator passes when ATR Drift exceeds 1.5 AND at least 5 days have passed since earnings.
HOW TO INTERPRET:
- Check mark/value of '1': The stock has drifted more than 1.5 times its average daily range since earnings - a statistically significant move that suggests genuine momentum, not just noise.
- X mark/value of '0': The drift (if any) is within normal volatility bounds - could just be random fluctuation.
Why wait 5 days? The immediate post-earnings reaction (days 0-2) often includes gap fills and noise. By day 5, if the stock is still extended beyond 1.5 ATRs from the earnings close, it suggests real buying pressure, not just a reflexive gap.
A passing grade here helps filter out stocks that "beat earnings" but haven't actually moved meaningfully. It focuses attention on stocks where the market is voting with real capital.
─────────────────────────────────────────
9. Days Since D0
─────────────────────────────────────────
WHAT IT IS:
Simply counts the number of trading days since the earnings reaction day (D0).
HOW TO INTERPRET:
- Days 0-5 (Green): Fresh earnings - the information is new, institutional repositioning is active, and momentum trades are most potent. This is the "sweet spot" for PEAD strategies.
- Days 6-10 (Neutral): Mid-period - some edge remains but diminishing. Good for adding to winning positions, less ideal for new entries.
- Days 11+ (Red): Extended period - most of the post-earnings drift has typically played out. Higher risk that momentum fades or reverses.
Research shows PEAD effects are strongest in the first 5-10 days after earnings, then decay. Beyond 20-30 days, the informational advantage of the earnings surprise is largely priced in.
Use this to prioritize: focus on stocks with strong signals that are still in the early window, and be more selective about entries as days accumulate.
═══════════════════════════════════════════════════════════════
PUTTING IT ALL TOGETHER
═══════════════════════════════════════════════════════════════
You can use this screener in the chart view or in the Screener.
One combination of the above filters to develop a shortlist of positive drift candidates may be:
- SUE > 2.0 (significant earnings beat)
- SURGE > 1.5 (significant revenue beat)
- Positive % From D0 Close (price confirming the good news)
- Institutional Buying PASS (big players accumulating)
- Strong ATR Drift PASS (statistically significant movement)
- Days Since D0 < 10 (still in the active drift window)
No single indicator is sufficient. The power comes from convergence - when multiple independent measures all point the same direction.
═══════════════════════════════════════════════════════════════
SETTINGS
═══════════════════════════════════════════════════════════════
Key adjustable parameters:
- SUE Method: "Analyst-based" uses consensus estimates; "Time-series" uses year-over-year comparison
- Window Size: Number of quarters used for standardization (default: 8)
- ATR Drift Threshold: Minimum ATR multiple for "strong" classification (default: 1.5)
- Institutional Buying thresholds: Adjustable volume and CLV parameters
═══════════════════════════════════════════════════════════════
DISCLAIMER
═══════════════════════════════════════════════════════════════
This screener is a research tool, not financial advice. Past patterns do not guarantee future results. Always conduct your own due diligence and manage risk appropriately. Post-earnings trading involves significant uncertainty and volatility. The 'SUE' in this indicator does not represent a real person; any similarity to actual Sue's (or Susans for that matter) living or dead is quite frankly ridiculous, not to mention coincidental.
Ultimate RSI [captainua]Ultimate RSI
Overview
This indicator combines multiple RSI calculations with volume analysis, divergence detection, and trend filtering to provide a comprehensive RSI-based trading system. The script calculates RSI using three different periods (6, 14, 24) and applies various smoothing methods to reduce noise while maintaining responsiveness. The combination of these features creates a multi-layered confirmation system that reduces false signals by requiring alignment across multiple indicators and timeframes.
The script includes optimized configuration presets for instant setup: Scalping, Day Trading, Swing Trading, and Position Trading. Simply select a preset to instantly configure all settings for your trading style, or use Custom mode for full manual control. All settings include automatic input validation to prevent configuration errors and ensure optimal performance.
Configuration Presets
The script includes preset configurations optimized for different trading styles, allowing you to instantly configure the indicator for your preferred trading approach. Simply select a preset from the "Configuration Preset" dropdown menu:
- Scalping: Optimized for fast-paced trading with shorter RSI periods (4, 7, 9) and minimal smoothing. Noise reduction is automatically disabled, and momentum confirmation is disabled to allow faster signal generation. Designed for quick entries and exits in volatile markets.
- Day Trading: Balanced configuration for intraday trading with moderate RSI periods (6, 9, 14) and light smoothing. Momentum confirmation is enabled for better signal quality. Ideal for day trading strategies requiring timely but accurate signals.
- Swing Trading: Configured for medium-term positions with standard RSI periods (14, 14, 21) and moderate smoothing. Provides smoother signals suitable for swing trading timeframes. All noise reduction features remain active.
- Position Trading: Optimized for longer-term trades with extended RSI periods (24, 21, 28) and heavier smoothing. Filters are configured for highest-quality signals. Best for position traders holding trades over multiple days or weeks.
- Custom: Full manual control over all settings. All input parameters are available for complete customization. This is the default mode and maintains full backward compatibility with previous versions.
When a preset is selected, it automatically adjusts RSI periods, smoothing lengths, and filter settings to match the trading style. The preset configurations ensure optimal settings are applied instantly, eliminating the need for manual configuration. All settings can still be manually overridden if needed, providing flexibility while maintaining ease of use.
Input Validation and Error Prevention
The script includes comprehensive input validation to prevent configuration errors:
- Cross-Input Validation: Smoothing lengths are automatically validated to ensure they are always less than their corresponding RSI period length. If you set a smoothing length greater than or equal to the RSI length, the script automatically adjusts it to (RSI Length - 1). This prevents logical errors and ensures valid configurations.
- Input Range Validation: All numeric inputs have minimum and maximum value constraints enforced by TradingView's input system, preventing invalid parameter values.
- Smart Defaults: Preset configurations use validated default values that are tested and optimized for each trading style. When switching between presets, all related settings are automatically updated to maintain consistency.
Core Calculations
Multi-Period RSI:
The script calculates RSI using the standard Wilder's RSI formula: RSI = 100 - (100 / (1 + RS)), where RS = Average Gain / Average Loss over the specified period. Three separate RSI calculations run simultaneously:
- RSI(6): Uses 6-period lookback for high sensitivity to recent price changes, useful for scalping and early signal detection
- RSI(14): Standard 14-period RSI for balanced analysis, the most commonly used RSI period
- RSI(24): Longer 24-period RSI for trend confirmation, provides smoother signals with less noise
Each RSI can be smoothed using EMA, SMA, RMA (Wilder's smoothing), WMA, or Zero-Lag smoothing. Zero-Lag smoothing uses the formula: ZL-RSI = RSI + (RSI - RSI ) to reduce lag while maintaining signal quality. You can apply individual smoothing lengths to each RSI period, or use global smoothing where all three RSIs share the same smoothing length.
Dynamic Overbought/Oversold Thresholds:
Static thresholds (default 70/30) are adjusted based on market volatility using ATR. The formula: Dynamic OB = Base OB + (ATR × Volatility Multiplier × Base Percentage / 100), Dynamic OS = Base OS - (ATR × Volatility Multiplier × Base Percentage / 100). This adapts to volatile markets where traditional 70/30 levels may be too restrictive. During high volatility, the dynamic thresholds widen, and during low volatility, they narrow. The thresholds are clamped between 0-100 to remain within RSI bounds. The ATR is cached for performance optimization, updating on confirmed bars and real-time bars.
Adaptive RSI Calculation:
An adaptive RSI adjusts the standard RSI(14) based on current volatility relative to average volatility. The calculation: Adaptive Factor = (Current ATR / SMA of ATR over 20 periods) × Volatility Multiplier. If SMA of ATR is zero (edge case), the adaptive factor defaults to 0. The adaptive RSI = Base RSI × (1 + Adaptive Factor), clamped to 0-100. This makes the indicator more responsive during high volatility periods when traditional RSI may lag. The adaptive RSI is used for signal generation (buy/sell signals) but is not plotted on the chart.
Overbought/Oversold Fill Zones:
The script provides visual fill zones between the RSI line and the threshold lines when RSI is in overbought or oversold territory. The fill logic uses inclusive conditions: fills are shown when RSI is currently in the zone OR was in the zone on the previous bar. This ensures complete coverage of entry and exit boundaries. A minimum gap of 0.1 RSI points is maintained between the RSI plot and threshold line to ensure reliable polygon rendering in TradingView. The fill uses invisible plots at the threshold levels and the RSI value, with the fill color applied between them. You can select which RSI (6, 14, or 24) to use for the fill zones.
Divergence Detection
Regular Divergence:
Bullish divergence: Price makes a lower low (current low < lowest low from previous lookback period) while RSI makes a higher low (current RSI > lowest RSI from previous lookback period). Bearish divergence: Price makes a higher high (current high > highest high from previous lookback period) while RSI makes a lower high (current RSI < highest RSI from previous lookback period). The script compares current price/RSI values to the lowest/highest values from the previous lookback period using ta.lowest() and ta.highest() functions with index to reference the previous period's extreme.
Pivot-Based Divergence:
An enhanced divergence detection method that uses actual pivot points instead of simple lowest/highest comparisons. This provides more accurate divergence detection by identifying significant pivot lows/highs in both price and RSI. The pivot-based method uses a tolerance-based approach with configurable constants: 1% tolerance for price comparisons (priceTolerancePercent = 0.01) and 1.0 RSI point absolute tolerance for RSI comparisons (pivotTolerance = 1.0). Minimum divergence threshold is 1.0 RSI point (minDivergenceThreshold = 1.0). It looks for two recent pivot points and compares them: for bullish divergence, price makes a lower low (at least 1% lower) while RSI makes a higher low (at least 1.0 point higher). This method reduces false divergences by requiring actual pivot points rather than just any low/high within a period. When enabled, pivot-based divergence replaces the traditional method for more accurate signal generation.
Strong Divergence:
Regular divergence is confirmed by an engulfing candle pattern. Bullish engulfing requires: (1) Previous candle is bearish (close < open ), (2) Current candle is bullish (close > open), (3) Current close > previous open, (4) Current open < previous close. Bearish engulfing is the inverse: previous bullish, current bearish, current close < previous open, current open > previous close. Strong divergence signals are marked with visual indicators (🐂 for bullish, 🐻 for bearish) and have separate alert conditions.
Hidden Divergence:
Continuation patterns that signal trend continuation rather than reversal. Bullish hidden divergence: Price makes a higher low (current low > lowest low from previous period) but RSI makes a lower low (current RSI < lowest RSI from previous period). Bearish hidden divergence: Price makes a lower high (current high < highest high from previous period) but RSI makes a higher high (current RSI > highest RSI from previous period). These patterns indicate the trend is likely to continue in the current direction.
Volume Confirmation System
Volume threshold filtering requires current volume to exceed the volume SMA multiplied by the threshold factor. The formula: Volume Confirmed = Volume > (Volume SMA × Threshold). If the threshold is set to 0.1 or lower, volume confirmation is effectively disabled (always returns true). This allows you to use the indicator without volume filtering if desired.
Volume Climax is detected when volume exceeds: Volume SMA + (Volume StdDev × Multiplier). This indicates potential capitulation moments where extreme volume accompanies price movements. Volume Dry-Up is detected when volume falls below: Volume SMA - (Volume StdDev × Multiplier), indicating low participation periods that may produce unreliable signals. The volume SMA is cached for performance, updating on confirmed and real-time bars.
Multi-RSI Synergy
The script generates signals when multiple RSI periods align in overbought or oversold zones. This creates a confirmation system that reduces false signals. In "ALL" mode, all three RSIs (6, 14, 24) must be simultaneously above the overbought threshold OR all three must be below the oversold threshold. In "2-of-3" mode, any two of the three RSIs must align in the same direction. The script counts how many RSIs are in each zone: twoOfThreeOB = ((rsi6OB ? 1 : 0) + (rsi14OB ? 1 : 0) + (rsi24OB ? 1 : 0)) >= 2.
Synergy signals require: (1) Multi-RSI alignment (ALL or 2-of-3), (2) Volume confirmation, (3) Reset condition satisfied (enough bars since last synergy signal), (4) Additional filters passed (RSI50, Trend, ADX, Volume Dry-Up avoidance). Separate reset conditions track buy and sell signals independently. The reset condition uses ta.barssince() to count bars since the last trigger, returning true if the condition never occurred (allowing first signal) or if enough bars have passed.
Regression Forecasting
The script uses historical RSI values to forecast future RSI direction using four methods. The forecast horizon is configurable (1-50 bars ahead). Historical data is collected into an array, and regression coefficients are calculated based on the selected method.
Linear Regression: Calculates the least-squares fit line (y = mx + b) through the last N RSI values. The calculation: meanX = sumX / horizon, meanY = sumY / horizon, denominator = sumX² - horizon × meanX², m = (sumXY - horizon × meanX × meanY) / denominator, b = meanY - m × meanX. The forecast projects this line forward: forecast = b + m × i for i = 1 to horizon.
Polynomial Regression: Fits a quadratic curve (y = ax² + bx + c) to capture non-linear trends. The system of equations is solved using Cramer's rule with a 3×3 determinant. If the determinant is too small (< 0.0001), the system falls back to linear regression. Coefficients are calculated by solving: n×c + sumX×b + sumX²×a = sumY, sumX×c + sumX²×b + sumX³×a = sumXY, sumX²×c + sumX³×b + sumX⁴×a = sumX²Y. Note: Due to the O(n³) computational complexity of polynomial regression, the forecast horizon is automatically limited to a maximum of 20 bars when using polynomial regression to maintain optimal performance. If you set a horizon greater than 20 bars with polynomial regression, it will be automatically capped at 20 bars.
Exponential Smoothing: Applies exponential smoothing with adaptive alpha = 2/(horizon+1). The smoothing iterates from oldest to newest value: smoothed = alpha × series + (1 - alpha) × smoothed. Trend is calculated by comparing current smoothed value to an earlier smoothed value (at 60% of horizon): trend = (smoothed - earlierSmoothed) / (horizon - earlierIdx). Forecast: forecast = base + trend × i.
Moving Average: Uses the difference between short MA (horizon/2) and long MA (horizon) to estimate trend direction. Trend = (maShort - maLong) / (longLen - shortLen). Forecast: forecast = maShort + trend × i.
Confidence bands are calculated using RMSE (Root Mean Squared Error) of historical forecast accuracy. The error calculation compares historical values with forecast values: RMSE = sqrt(sumSquaredError / count). If insufficient data exists, it falls back to calculating standard deviation of recent RSI values. Confidence bands = forecast ± (RMSE × confidenceLevel). All forecast values and confidence bands are clamped to 0-100 to remain within RSI bounds. The regression functions include comprehensive safety checks: horizon validation (must not exceed array size), empty array handling, edge case handling for horizon=1 scenarios, division-by-zero protection, and bounds checking for all array access operations to prevent runtime errors.
Strong Top/Bottom Detection
Strong buy signals require three conditions: (1) RSI is at its lowest point within the bottom period: rsiVal <= ta.lowest(rsiVal, bottomPeriod), (2) RSI is below the oversold threshold minus a buffer: rsiVal < (oversoldThreshold - rsiTopBottomBuffer), where rsiTopBottomBuffer = 2.0 RSI points, (3) The absolute difference between current RSI and the lowest RSI exceeds the threshold value: abs(rsiVal - ta.lowest(rsiVal, bottomPeriod)) > threshold. This indicates a bounce from extreme levels with sufficient distance from the absolute low.
Strong sell signals use the inverse logic: RSI at highest point, above overbought threshold + rsiTopBottomBuffer (2.0 RSI points), and difference from highest exceeds threshold. Both signals also require: volume confirmation, reset condition satisfied (separate reset for buy vs sell), and all additional filters passed (RSI50, Trend, ADX, Volume Dry-Up avoidance).
The reset condition uses separate logic for buy and sell: resetCondBuy checks bars since isRSIAtBottom, resetCondSell checks bars since isRSIAtTop. This ensures buy signals reset based on bottom conditions and sell signals reset based on top conditions, preventing incorrect signal blocking.
Filtering System
RSI(50) Filter: Only allows buy signals when RSI(14) > 50 (bullish momentum) and sell signals when RSI(14) < 50 (bearish momentum). This filter ensures you're buying in uptrends and selling in downtrends from a momentum perspective. The filter is optional and can be disabled. Recommended to enable for noise reduction.
Trend Filter: Uses a long-term EMA (default 200) to determine trend direction. Buy signals require price above EMA, sell signals require price below EMA. The EMA slope is calculated as: emaSlope = ema - ema . Optional EMA slope filter additionally requires the EMA to be rising (slope > 0) for buy signals or falling (slope < 0) for sell signals. This provides stronger trend confirmation by requiring both price position and EMA direction.
ADX Filter: Uses the Directional Movement Index (calculated via ta.dmi()) to measure trend strength. Signals only fire when ADX exceeds the threshold (default 20), indicating a strong trend rather than choppy markets. The ADX calculation uses separate length and smoothing parameters. This filter helps avoid signals during sideways/consolidation periods.
Volume Dry-Up Avoidance: Prevents signals during periods of extremely low volume relative to average. If volume dry-up is detected and the filter is enabled, signals are blocked. This helps avoid unreliable signals that occur during low participation periods.
RSI Momentum Confirmation: Requires RSI to be accelerating in the signal direction before confirming signals. For buy signals, RSI must be consistently rising (recovering from oversold) over the lookback period. For sell signals, RSI must be consistently falling (declining from overbought) over the lookback period. The momentum check verifies that all consecutive changes are in the correct direction AND the cumulative change is significant. This filter ensures signals only fire when RSI momentum aligns with the signal direction, reducing false signals from weak momentum.
Multi-Timeframe Confirmation: Requires higher timeframe RSI to align with the signal direction. For buy signals, current RSI must be below the higher timeframe RSI by at least the confirmation threshold. For sell signals, current RSI must be above the higher timeframe RSI by at least the confirmation threshold. This ensures signals align with the larger trend context, reducing counter-trend trades. The higher timeframe RSI is fetched using request.security() from the selected timeframe.
All filters use the pattern: filterResult = not filterEnabled OR conditionMet. This means if a filter is disabled, it always passes (returns true). Filters can be combined, and all must pass for a signal to fire.
RSI Centerline and Period Crossovers
RSI(50) Centerline Crossovers: Detects when the selected RSI source crosses above or below the 50 centerline. Bullish crossover: ta.crossover(rsiSource, 50), bearish crossover: ta.crossunder(rsiSource, 50). You can select which RSI (6, 14, or 24) to use for these crossovers. These signals indicate momentum shifts from bearish to bullish (above 50) or bullish to bearish (below 50).
RSI Period Crossovers: Detects when different RSI periods cross each other. Available pairs: RSI(6) × RSI(14), RSI(14) × RSI(24), or RSI(6) × RSI(24). Bullish crossover: fast RSI crosses above slow RSI (ta.crossover(rsiFast, rsiSlow)), indicating momentum acceleration. Bearish crossover: fast RSI crosses below slow RSI (ta.crossunder(rsiFast, rsiSlow)), indicating momentum deceleration. These crossovers can signal shifts in momentum before price moves.
StochRSI Calculation
Stochastic RSI applies the Stochastic oscillator formula to RSI values instead of price. The calculation: %K = ((RSI - Lowest RSI) / (Highest RSI - Lowest RSI)) × 100, where the lookback is the StochRSI length. If the range is zero, %K defaults to 50.0. %K is then smoothed using SMA with the %K smoothing length. %D is calculated as SMA of smoothed %K with the %D smoothing length. All values are clamped to 0-100. You can select which RSI (6, 14, or 24) to use as the source for StochRSI calculation.
RSI Bollinger Bands
Bollinger Bands are applied to RSI(14) instead of price. The calculation: Basis = SMA(RSI(14), BB Period), StdDev = stdev(RSI(14), BB Period), Upper = Basis + (StdDev × Deviation Multiplier), Lower = Basis - (StdDev × Deviation Multiplier). This creates dynamic zones around RSI that adapt to RSI volatility. When RSI touches or exceeds the bands, it indicates extreme conditions relative to recent RSI behavior.
Noise Reduction System
The script includes a comprehensive noise reduction system to filter false signals and improve accuracy. When enabled, signals must pass multiple quality checks:
Signal Strength Requirement: RSI must be at least X points away from the centerline (50). For buy signals, RSI must be at least X points below 50. For sell signals, RSI must be at least X points above 50. This ensures signals only trigger when RSI is significantly in oversold/overbought territory, not just near neutral.
Extreme Zone Requirement: RSI must be deep in the OB/OS zone. For buy signals, RSI must be at least X points below the oversold threshold. For sell signals, RSI must be at least X points above the overbought threshold. This ensures signals only fire in extreme conditions where reversals are more likely.
Consecutive Bar Confirmation: The signal condition must persist for N consecutive bars before triggering. This reduces false signals from single-bar spikes or noise. The confirmation checks that the signal condition was true for all bars in the lookback period.
Zone Persistence (Optional): Requires RSI to remain in the OB/OS zone for N consecutive bars, not just touch it. This ensures RSI is truly in an extreme state rather than just briefly touching the threshold. When enabled, this provides stricter filtering for higher-quality signals.
RSI Slope Confirmation (Optional): Requires RSI to be moving in the expected signal direction. For buy signals, RSI should be rising (recovering from oversold). For sell signals, RSI should be falling (declining from overbought). This ensures momentum is aligned with the signal direction. The slope is calculated by comparing current RSI to RSI N bars ago.
All noise reduction filters can be enabled/disabled independently, allowing you to customize the balance between signal frequency and accuracy. The default settings provide a good balance, but you can adjust them based on your trading style and market conditions.
Alert System
The script includes separate alert conditions for each signal type: buy/sell (adaptive RSI crossovers), divergence (regular, strong, hidden), crossovers (RSI50 centerline, RSI period crossovers), synergy signals, and trend breaks. Each alert type has its own alertcondition() declaration with a unique title and message.
An optional cooldown system prevents alert spam by requiring a minimum number of bars between alerts of the same type. The cooldown check: canAlert = na(lastAlertBar) OR (bar_index - lastAlertBar >= cooldownBars). If the last alert bar is na (first alert), it always allows the alert. Each alert type maintains its own lastAlertBar variable, so cooldowns are independent per signal type. The default cooldown is 10 bars, which is recommended for noise reduction.
Higher Timeframe RSI
The script can display RSI from a higher timeframe using request.security(). This allows you to see the RSI context from a larger timeframe (e.g., daily RSI on an hourly chart). The higher timeframe RSI uses RSI(14) calculation from the selected timeframe. This provides context for the current timeframe's RSI position relative to the larger trend.
RSI Pivot Trendlines
The script can draw trendlines connecting pivot highs and lows on RSI(6). This feature helps visualize RSI trends and identify potential trend breaks.
Pivot Detection: Pivots are detected using a configurable period. The script can require pivots to have minimum strength (RSI points difference from surrounding bars) to filter out weak pivots. Lower minPivotStrength values detect more pivots (more trendlines), while higher values detect only stronger pivots (fewer but more significant trendlines). Pivot confirmation is optional: when enabled, the script waits N bars to confirm the pivot remains the extreme, reducing repainting. Pivot confirmation functions (f_confirmPivotLow and f_confirmPivotHigh) are always called on every bar for consistency, as recommended by TradingView. When pivot bars are not available (na), safe default values are used, and the results are then used conditionally based on confirmation settings. This ensures consistent calculations and prevents calculation inconsistencies.
Trendline Drawing: Uptrend lines connect confirmed pivot lows (green), and downtrend lines connect confirmed pivot highs (red). By default, only the most recent trendline is shown (old trendlines are deleted when new pivots are confirmed). This keeps the chart clean and uncluttered. If "Keep Historical Trendlines" is enabled, the script preserves up to N historical trendlines (configurable via "Max Trendlines to Keep", default 5). When historical trendlines are enabled, old trendlines are saved to arrays instead of being deleted, allowing you to see multiple trendlines simultaneously for better trend analysis. The arrays are automatically limited to prevent memory accumulation.
Trend Break Detection: Signals are generated when RSI breaks above or below trendlines. Uptrend breaks (RSI crosses below uptrend line) generate buy signals. Downtrend breaks (RSI crosses above downtrend line) generate sell signals. Optional trend break confirmation requires the break to persist for N bars and optionally include volume confirmation. Trendline angle filtering can exclude flat/weak trendlines from generating signals (minTrendlineAngle > 0 filters out weak/flat trendlines).
How Components Work Together
The combination of multiple RSI periods provides confirmation across different timeframes, reducing false signals. RSI(6) catches early moves, RSI(14) provides balanced signals, and RSI(24) confirms longer-term trends. When all three align (synergy), it indicates strong consensus across timeframes.
Volume confirmation ensures signals occur with sufficient market participation, filtering out low-volume false breakouts. Volume climax detection identifies potential reversal points, while volume dry-up avoidance prevents signals during unreliable low-volume periods.
Trend filters align signals with the overall market direction. The EMA filter ensures you're trading with the trend, and the EMA slope filter adds an additional layer by requiring the trend to be strengthening (rising EMA for buys, falling EMA for sells).
ADX filter ensures signals only fire during strong trends, avoiding choppy/consolidation periods. RSI(50) filter ensures momentum alignment with the trade direction.
Momentum confirmation requires RSI to be accelerating in the signal direction, ensuring signals only fire when momentum is aligned. Multi-timeframe confirmation ensures signals align with higher timeframe trends, reducing counter-trend trades.
Divergence detection identifies potential reversals before they occur, providing early warning signals. Pivot-based divergence provides more accurate detection by using actual pivot points. Hidden divergence identifies continuation patterns, useful for trend-following strategies.
The noise reduction system combines multiple filters (signal strength, extreme zone, consecutive bars, zone persistence, RSI slope) to significantly reduce false signals. These filters work together to ensure only high-quality signals are generated.
The synergy system requires alignment across all RSI periods for highest-quality signals, significantly reducing false positives. Regression forecasting provides forward-looking context, helping anticipate potential RSI direction changes.
Pivot trendlines provide visual trend analysis and can generate signals when RSI breaks trendlines, indicating potential reversals or continuations.
Reset conditions prevent signal spam by requiring a minimum number of bars between signals. Separate reset conditions for buy and sell signals ensure proper signal management.
Usage Instructions
Configuration Presets (Recommended): The script includes optimized preset configurations for instant setup. Simply select your trading style from the "Configuration Preset" dropdown:
- Scalping Preset: RSI(4, 7, 9) with minimal smoothing. Noise reduction disabled, momentum confirmation disabled for fastest signals.
- Day Trading Preset: RSI(6, 9, 14) with light smoothing. Momentum confirmation enabled for better signal quality.
- Swing Trading Preset: RSI(14, 14, 21) with moderate smoothing. Balanced configuration for medium-term trades.
- Position Trading Preset: RSI(24, 21, 28) with heavier smoothing. Optimized for longer-term positions with all filters active.
- Custom Mode: Full manual control over all settings. Default behavior matches previous script versions.
Presets automatically configure RSI periods, smoothing lengths, and filter settings. You can still manually adjust any setting after selecting a preset if needed.
Getting Started: The easiest way to get started is to select a configuration preset matching your trading style (Scalping, Day Trading, Swing Trading, or Position Trading) from the "Configuration Preset" dropdown. This instantly configures all settings for optimal performance. Alternatively, use "Custom" mode for full manual control. The default configuration (Custom mode) shows RSI(6), RSI(14), and RSI(24) with their default smoothing. Overbought/oversold fill zones are enabled by default.
Customizing RSI Periods: Adjust the RSI lengths (6, 14, 24) based on your trading timeframe. Shorter periods (6) for scalping, standard (14) for day trading, longer (24) for swing trading. You can disable any RSI period you don't need.
Smoothing Selection: Choose smoothing method based on your needs. EMA provides balanced smoothing, RMA (Wilder's) is traditional, Zero-Lag reduces lag but may increase noise. Adjust smoothing lengths individually or use global smoothing for consistency. Note: Smoothing lengths are automatically validated to ensure they are always less than the corresponding RSI period length. If you set smoothing >= RSI length, it will be auto-adjusted to prevent invalid configurations.
Dynamic OB/OS: The dynamic thresholds automatically adapt to volatility. Adjust the volatility multiplier and base percentage to fine-tune sensitivity. Higher values create wider thresholds in volatile markets.
Volume Confirmation: Set volume threshold to 1.2 (default) for standard confirmation, higher for stricter filtering, or 0.1 to disable volume filtering entirely.
Multi-RSI Synergy: Use "ALL" mode for highest-quality signals (all 3 RSIs must align), or "2-of-3" mode for more frequent signals. Adjust the reset period to control signal frequency.
Filters: Enable filters gradually to find your preferred balance. Start with volume confirmation, then add trend filter, then ADX for strongest confirmation. RSI(50) filter is useful for momentum-based strategies and is recommended for noise reduction. Momentum confirmation and multi-timeframe confirmation add additional layers of accuracy but may reduce signal frequency.
Noise Reduction: The noise reduction system is enabled by default with balanced settings. Adjust minSignalStrength (default 3.0) to control how far RSI must be from centerline. Increase requireConsecutiveBars (default 1) to require signals to persist longer. Enable requireZonePersistence and requireRsiSlope for stricter filtering (higher quality but fewer signals). Start with defaults and adjust based on your needs.
Divergence: Enable divergence detection and adjust lookback periods. Strong divergence (with engulfing confirmation) provides higher-quality signals. Hidden divergence is useful for trend-following strategies. Enable pivot-based divergence for more accurate detection using actual pivot points instead of simple lowest/highest comparisons. Pivot-based divergence uses tolerance-based matching (1% for price, 1.0 RSI point for RSI) for better accuracy.
Forecasting: Enable regression forecasting to see potential RSI direction. Linear regression is simplest, polynomial captures curves, exponential smoothing adapts to trends. Adjust horizon based on your trading timeframe. Confidence bands show forecast uncertainty - wider bands indicate less reliable forecasts.
Pivot Trendlines: Enable pivot trendlines to visualize RSI trends and identify trend breaks. Adjust pivot detection period (default 5) - higher values detect fewer but stronger pivots. Enable pivot confirmation (default ON) to reduce repainting. Set minPivotStrength (default 1.0) to filter weak pivots - lower values detect more pivots (more trendlines), higher values detect only stronger pivots (fewer trendlines). Enable "Keep Historical Trendlines" to preserve multiple trendlines instead of just the most recent one. Set "Max Trendlines to Keep" (default 5) to control how many historical trendlines are preserved. Enable trend break confirmation for more reliable break signals. Adjust minTrendlineAngle (default 0.0) to filter flat trendlines - set to 0.1-0.5 to exclude weak trendlines.
Alerts: Set up alerts for your preferred signal types. Enable cooldown to prevent alert spam. Each signal type has its own alert condition, so you can be selective about which signals trigger alerts.
Visual Elements and Signal Markers
The script uses various visual markers to indicate signals and conditions:
- "sBottom" label (green): Strong bottom signal - RSI at extreme low with strong buy conditions
- "sTop" label (red): Strong top signal - RSI at extreme high with strong sell conditions
- "SyBuy" label (lime): Multi-RSI synergy buy signal - all RSIs aligned oversold
- "SySell" label (red): Multi-RSI synergy sell signal - all RSIs aligned overbought
- 🐂 emoji (green): Strong bullish divergence detected
- 🐻 emoji (red): Strong bearish divergence detected
- 🔆 emoji: Weak divergence signals (if enabled)
- "H-Bull" label: Hidden bullish divergence
- "H-Bear" label: Hidden bearish divergence
- ⚡ marker (top of pane): Volume climax detected (extreme volume) - positioned at top for visibility
- 💧 marker (top of pane): Volume dry-up detected (very low volume) - positioned at top for visibility
- ↑ triangle (lime): Uptrend break signal - RSI breaks below uptrend line
- ↓ triangle (red): Downtrend break signal - RSI breaks above downtrend line
- Triangle up (lime): RSI(50) bullish crossover
- Triangle down (red): RSI(50) bearish crossover
- Circle markers: RSI period crossovers
All markers are positioned at the RSI value where the signal occurs, using location.absolute for precise placement.
Signal Priority and Interpretation
Signals are generated independently and can occur simultaneously. Higher-priority signals generally indicate stronger setups:
1. Multi-RSI Synergy signals (SyBuy/SySell) - Highest priority: Requires alignment across all RSI periods plus volume and filter confirmation. These are the most reliable signals.
2. Strong Top/Bottom signals (sTop/sBottom) - High priority: Indicates extreme RSI levels with strong bounce conditions. Requires volume confirmation and all filters.
3. Divergence signals - Medium-High priority: Strong divergence (with engulfing) is more reliable than regular divergence. Hidden divergence indicates continuation rather than reversal.
4. Adaptive RSI crossovers - Medium priority: Buy when adaptive RSI crosses below dynamic oversold, sell when it crosses above dynamic overbought. These use volatility-adjusted RSI for more accurate signals.
5. RSI(50) centerline crossovers - Medium priority: Momentum shift signals. Less reliable alone but useful when combined with other confirmations.
6. RSI period crossovers - Lower priority: Early momentum shift indicators. Can provide early warning but may produce false signals in choppy markets.
Best practice: Wait for multiple confirmations. For example, a synergy signal combined with divergence and volume climax provides the strongest setup.
Chart Requirements
For proper script functionality and compliance with TradingView requirements, ensure your chart displays:
- Symbol name: The trading pair or instrument name should be visible
- Timeframe: The chart timeframe should be clearly displayed
- Script name: "Ultimate RSI " should be visible in the indicator title
These elements help traders understand what they're viewing and ensure proper script identification. The script automatically includes this information in the indicator title and chart labels.
Performance Considerations
The script is optimized for performance:
- ATR and Volume SMA are cached using var variables, updating only on confirmed and real-time bars to reduce redundant calculations
- Forecast line arrays are dynamically managed: lines are reused when possible, and unused lines are deleted to prevent memory accumulation
- Calculations use efficient Pine Script functions (ta.rsi, ta.ema, etc.) which are optimized by TradingView
- Array operations are minimized where possible, with direct calculations preferred
- Polynomial regression automatically caps the forecast horizon at 20 bars (POLYNOMIAL_MAX_HORIZON constant) to prevent performance degradation, as polynomial regression has O(n³) complexity. This safeguard ensures optimal performance even with large horizon settings
- Pivot detection includes edge case handling to ensure reliable calculations even on early bars with limited historical data. Regression forecasting functions include comprehensive safety checks: horizon validation (must not exceed array size), empty array handling, edge case handling for horizon=1 scenarios, and division-by-zero protection in all mathematical operations
The script should perform well on all timeframes. On very long historical data, forecast lines may accumulate if the horizon is large; consider reducing the forecast horizon if you experience performance issues. The polynomial regression performance safeguard automatically prevents performance issues for that specific regression type.
Known Limitations and Considerations
- Forecast lines are forward-looking projections and should not be used as definitive predictions. They provide context but are not guaranteed to be accurate.
- Dynamic OB/OS thresholds can exceed 100 or go below 0 in extreme volatility scenarios, but are clamped to 0-100 range. This means in very volatile markets, the dynamic thresholds may not widen as much as the raw calculation suggests.
- Volume confirmation requires sufficient historical volume data. On new instruments or very short timeframes, volume calculations may be less reliable.
- Higher timeframe RSI uses request.security() which may have slight delays on some data feeds.
- Regression forecasting requires at least N bars of history (where N = forecast horizon) before it can generate forecasts. Early bars will not show forecast lines.
- StochRSI calculation requires the selected RSI source to have sufficient history. Very short RSI periods on new charts may produce less reliable StochRSI values initially.
Practical Use Cases
The indicator can be configured for different trading styles and timeframes:
Swing Trading: Select the "Swing Trading" preset for instant optimal configuration. This preset uses RSI periods (14, 14, 21) with moderate smoothing. Alternatively, manually configure: Use RSI(24) with Multi-RSI Synergy in "ALL" mode, combined with trend filter (EMA 200) and ADX filter. This configuration provides high-probability setups with strong confirmation across multiple RSI periods.
Day Trading: Select the "Day Trading" preset for instant optimal configuration. This preset uses RSI periods (6, 9, 14) with light smoothing and momentum confirmation enabled. Alternatively, manually configure: Use RSI(6) with Zero-Lag smoothing for fast signal detection. Enable volume confirmation with threshold 1.2-1.5 for reliable entries. Combine with RSI(50) filter to ensure momentum alignment. Strong top/bottom signals work well for day trading reversals.
Trend Following: Enable trend filter (EMA) and EMA slope filter for strong trend confirmation. Use RSI(14) or RSI(24) with ADX filter to avoid choppy markets. Hidden divergence signals are useful for trend continuation entries.
Reversal Trading: Focus on divergence detection (regular and strong) combined with strong top/bottom signals. Enable volume climax detection to identify capitulation moments. Use RSI(6) for early reversal signals, confirmed by RSI(14) and RSI(24).
Forecasting and Planning: Enable regression forecasting with polynomial or exponential smoothing methods. Use forecast horizon of 10-20 bars for swing trading, 5-10 bars for day trading. Confidence bands help assess forecast reliability.
Multi-Timeframe Analysis: Enable higher timeframe RSI to see context from larger timeframes. For example, use daily RSI on hourly charts to understand the larger trend context. This helps avoid counter-trend trades.
Scalping: Select the "Scalping" preset for instant optimal configuration. This preset uses RSI periods (4, 7, 9) with minimal smoothing, disables noise reduction, and disables momentum confirmation for faster signals. Alternatively, manually configure: Use RSI(6) with minimal smoothing (or Zero-Lag) for ultra-fast signals. Disable most filters except volume confirmation. Use RSI period crossovers (RSI(6) × RSI(14)) for early momentum shifts. Set volume threshold to 1.0-1.2 for less restrictive filtering.
Position Trading: Select the "Position Trading" preset for instant optimal configuration. This preset uses extended RSI periods (24, 21, 28) with heavier smoothing, optimized for longer-term trades. Alternatively, manually configure: Use RSI(24) with all filters enabled (Trend, ADX, RSI(50), Volume Dry-Up avoidance). Multi-RSI Synergy in "ALL" mode provides highest-quality signals.
Practical Tips and Best Practices
Getting Started: The fastest way to get started is to select a configuration preset that matches your trading style. Simply choose "Scalping", "Day Trading", "Swing Trading", or "Position Trading" from the "Configuration Preset" dropdown to instantly configure all settings optimally. For advanced users, use "Custom" mode for full manual control. The default configuration (Custom mode) is balanced and works well across different markets. After observing behavior, customize settings to match your trading style.
Reducing Repainting: All signals are based on confirmed bars, minimizing repainting. The script uses confirmed bar data for all calculations to ensure backtesting accuracy.
Signal Quality: Multi-RSI Synergy signals in "ALL" mode provide the highest-quality signals because they require alignment across all three RSI periods. These signals have lower frequency but higher reliability. For more frequent signals, use "2-of-3" mode. The noise reduction system further improves signal quality by requiring multiple confirmations (signal strength, extreme zone, consecutive bars, optional zone persistence and RSI slope). Adjust noise reduction settings to balance signal frequency vs. accuracy.
Filter Combinations: Start with volume confirmation, then add trend filter for trend alignment, then ADX filter for trend strength. Combining all three filters significantly reduces false signals but also reduces signal frequency. Find your balance based on your risk tolerance.
Volume Filtering: Set volume threshold to 0.1 or lower to effectively disable volume filtering if you trade instruments with unreliable volume data or want to test without volume confirmation. Standard confirmation uses 1.2-1.5 threshold.
RSI Period Selection: RSI(6) is most sensitive and best for scalping or early signal detection. RSI(14) provides balanced signals suitable for day trading. RSI(24) is smoother and better for swing trading and trend confirmation. You can disable any RSI period you don't need to reduce visual clutter.
Smoothing Methods: EMA provides balanced smoothing with moderate lag. RMA (Wilder's smoothing) is traditional and works well for RSI. Zero-Lag reduces lag but may increase noise. WMA gives more weight to recent values. Choose based on your preference for responsiveness vs. smoothness.
Forecasting: Linear regression is simplest and works well for trending markets. Polynomial regression captures curves and works better in ranging markets. Exponential smoothing adapts to trends. Moving average method is most conservative. Use confidence bands to assess forecast reliability.
Divergence: Strong divergence (with engulfing confirmation) is more reliable than regular divergence. Hidden divergence indicates continuation rather than reversal, useful for trend-following strategies. Pivot-based divergence provides more accurate detection by using actual pivot points instead of simple lowest/highest comparisons. Adjust lookback periods based on your timeframe: shorter for day trading, longer for swing trading. Pivot divergence period (default 5) controls the sensitivity of pivot detection.
Dynamic Thresholds: Dynamic OB/OS thresholds automatically adapt to volatility. In volatile markets, thresholds widen; in calm markets, they narrow. Adjust the volatility multiplier and base percentage to fine-tune sensitivity. Higher values create wider thresholds in volatile markets.
Alert Management: Enable alert cooldown (default 10 bars, recommended) to prevent alert spam. Each alert type has its own cooldown, so you can set different cooldowns for different signal types. For example, use shorter cooldown for synergy signals (high quality) and longer cooldown for crossovers (more frequent). The cooldown system works independently for each signal type, preventing spam while allowing different signal types to fire when appropriate.

NIFTY Weekly Option Seller DirectionalHere’s a straight description you can paste into the TradingView “Description” box and tweak if needed:
---
### NIFTY Weekly Option Seller – Regime + Score + Management (Single TF)
This indicator is built for **weekly option sellers** (primarily NIFTY) who want a **structured regime + scoring framework** to decide:
* Whether to trade **Iron Condor (IC)**, **Put Credit Spread (PCS)** or **Call Credit Spread (CCS)**
* How strong that regime is on the current timeframe (score 0–5)
* When to **DEFEND** existing positions and when to **HARVEST** profits
> **Note:** This is a **single timeframe** tool. The original system uses it on **4H and 1D separately**, then combines scores manually (e.g., using `min(4H, 1D)` for conviction and lot sizing).
---
## Core logic
The script classifies the market into 3 regimes:
* **IC (Iron Condor)** – range/mean-reversion conditions
* **PCS (Put Credit Spread)** – bullish/trend-up conditions
* **CCS (Call Credit Spread)** – bearish/trend-down conditions
For each regime, it builds a **0–5 score** using:
* **EMA stack (8/13/34)** – trend structure
* **ADX (custom DMI-based)** – trend strength vs range
* **Previous-day CPR** – in CPR vs break above/below
* **VWAP (session)** – near/far value
* **Camarilla H3/L3** – for IC context
* **RSI (14)** – used as a **brake**, not a primary signal
* **Daily trend / Daily ADX** – used as **hard gates**, not double-counted as extra points
Then:
* Scores for PCS / CCS / IC are **cross-penalised** (they pull each other down if conflicting)
* Final scores are **smoothed** (current + previous bar) to avoid jumpy signals
The **background colour** shows the current regime and conviction:
* Blue = IC
* Green = PCS
* Red = CCS
* Stronger tint = higher regime score
---
## Scoring details (per timeframe)
**PCS (uptrend, bullish credit spreads)**
* +2 if EMA(8) > EMA(13) > EMA(34)
* +1 if ADX > ADX_TREND
* +1 if close > CPR High
* +1 if close > VWAP
* RSI brake:
* If RSI < 50 → PCS capped at 2
* If RSI > 75 → PCS capped at 3
* Daily gating:
* If daily EMA stack is **not** uptrend → PCS capped at 2
**CCS (downtrend, bearish credit spreads)**
* +2 if EMA(8) < EMA(13) < EMA(34)
* +1 if ADX > ADX_TREND
* +1 if close < CPR Low
* +1 if close < VWAP
* RSI brake:
* If RSI > 50 → CCS capped at 2
* If RSI < 25 → CCS capped at 3
* Daily gating:
* If daily EMA stack is **not** downtrend → CCS capped at 2
**IC (range / mean-reversion)**
* +2 if ADX < ADX_RANGE (low trend)
* +1 if close inside CPR
* +1 if near VWAP
* +0.5 if inside Camarilla H3–L3
* +1 if daily ADX < ADX_RANGE (daily also range-like)
* +0.5 if RSI between 45 and 55 (classic balance zone)
* Daily gating:
* If daily ADX ≥ ADX_TREND → IC capped at 2 (no “strong IC” in strong trends)
**Cross-penalty & smoothing**
* Each regime’s raw score is reduced by **0.5 × max(other two scores)**
* Final IC / PCS / CCS scores are then **smoothed** with previous bar
* Scores are always clipped to ** **
---
## Regime selection
* If one regime has the highest score → that regime is selected.
* If there is a tie or close scores:
* When ADX is high, trend regimes (PCS/CCS) are preferred in the direction of the EMA stack.
* When ADX is low, IC is preferred.
The selected regime’s score is used for:
* Background colour intensity
* Minimum score gate for alerts
* Display in the info panel
---
## DEFEND / HARVEST / REGIME alerts
The script also defines **management signals** using ATR-based buffers and Camarilla breaks:
* **DEFEND**
* Price moving too close to short strikes (PCS/CCS/IC) relative to ATR, or
* Trend breaks through Camarilla with ADX strong
→ Suggests rolling away / widening / converting to reduce risk.
* **HARVEST**
* Price has moved far enough from your short strikes (in ATR multiples) and market is still range-compatible
→ Suggests booking profits / rolling closer / reducing risk.
* **REGIME CHANGED**
* Regime flips (IC ↔ PCS/CCS) with cooldown and minimum score gate
→ Suggests switching playbook (range vs trend) for new entries.
Each of these has a plotshape label plus an `alertcondition()` for TradingView alerts.
---
## UI / Panel
The **top-right panel** (optional) shows:
* Strategy + final regime score (IC / PCS / CCS, x/5)
* ADX / RSI values
* CPR status (Narrow / Normal / Wide + %)
* EMA Stack (Up / Down / Mixed) and EMA tightness
* VWAP proximity (Near / Away)
* Final **IC / PCS / CCS** scores (for this timeframe)
* H3/L3, H4/L4, CPR Low/High and VWAP levels (rounded)
These values are meant to be **read quickly at the decision time** (e.g. near the close of the 4H bar or daily bar).
---
## Intended workflow
1. Run the script on **4H** and **1D** charts separately.
2. For each timeframe, read the panel’s **IC / PCS / CCS scores** and regime.
3. Decide:
* Final regime (IC vs PCS vs CCS)
* Combined score (e.g. `AlignScore = min(Score_4H, Score_1D)`)
4. Map that combined score to **your own lot-size buckets** and trade rules.
5. During the life of the position, use **DEFEND / HARVEST / REGIME** alerts to adjust.
The script does **not** auto-calculate lot size or P&L. It focuses on giving a structured, consistent **market regime + strength + levels + management** layer for weekly option selling.

Apex Liquidity & Trend Architect [Smart]Trading charts often suffer from two problems: Noise (too many false signals in chopping markets) and Clutter (too many old lines and zones obscuring price).
ALTA solves both. It is a streamlined, institutional-grade trend system that uses ADX filtering to silence weak signals and Time-Decay logic to automatically clean up old liquidity zones. It respects your screen real estate, showing you only what matters, right now.
1. The "Smart" Engine
Unlike standard trend indicators that repaint or clutter the screen, ALTA introduces three key innovations:
A. Hull Moving Average (HMA) Baseline
We have upgraded the core engine to use the Hull Moving Average. HMA is significantly faster and smoother than standard EMAs or SMAs, reducing lag on entry signals.
Note: You can switch back to WMA or SMA in the settings if you prefer a slower pace.
B. ADX Momentum Filtering
Quality over Quantity: The script monitors the ADX (Average Directional Index). If the trend flips, but the ADX is below 20 (weak trend), the signal is blocked.
This prevents you from getting chopped out during sideways accumulation phases. You only get a "BUY" or "SELL" label when there is actual momentum behind the move.
C. Adaptive Gradient Coloring
The candles do not just turn Green or Red. They change intensity based on trend strength.
Bright/Vivid Candles: Strong Momentum (High ADX).
Dark/Dull Candles: Weak Momentum (Low ADX).
Visual Cue: If the candles are fading into the background, stay out of the market.
2. Self-Cleaning Liquidity Zones
Most support/resistance indicators leave old boxes on the chart forever. ALTA uses a Decay Protocol.
Volume Validation: Supply/Demand zones are only drawn if the pivot point had volume significantly higher than average (configurable).
Mitigation: If price wicks through a zone, it is deleted instantly.
Time Decay (New): If a zone is not hit within a set number of bars (Default: 100), it automatically deletes itself. This keeps your chart focused on fresh levels only.
3. The Minimalist HUD
A simplified dashboard in the corner of your screen provides an instant health check of the market:
ALTA Label: System Status.
Trend: BULL / BEAR / WAIT (Squeeze).
Power: WEAK / SOLID / STRONG (Based on ADX).
4. How to Trade (The Strategy)
The High-Probability Buy
Trend: Ribbon is Green.
Candles: Candles are Bright Green (indicating High ADX Strength).
Signal: A "BUY" label appears (confirmed by ADX filter).
Liquidity: Price is bouncing off a valid Demand Zone.
The High-Probability Sell
Trend: Ribbon is Red.
Candles: Candles are Bright Red (indicating High ADX Strength).
Signal: A "SELL" label appears.
Liquidity: Price is rejecting off a valid Supply Zone.
When to STAY OUT
The Squeeze: If the ribbon turns Grey/White, volatility is compressing. Wait for the breakout.
The Fade: If the candles are dark/translucent, momentum is dying. Take profits or wait for a fresh impulse.
5. Settings & Customization
Basis Type: Switch between HMA (Fast), WMA (Standard), or SMA (Slow).
Signal Quality Filter: Toggle the ADX filter on/off.
Zone Life: How many bars should a Supply/Demand zone survive before decaying?

Dynamic Timeframe Trend AnalyzerPurpose and Core Logic
This indicator automatically adjusts its calculations based on the current chart’s timeframe, allowing traders to analyze trends, momentum, and mean reversion opportunities without manually changing indicator settings for each interval. It detects potential long or short setups by combining several techniques:
Dynamic Timeframe Factor
The script compares the current timeframe to a base (e.g., 5 minutes) and calculates a “factor” to scale certain parameters, such as EMA lengths or ATR settings. This reduces the need to reconfigure indicators when switching timeframes.
Regime Detection
It uses ADX (Average Directional Index) to classify the market as strongly trending, moderately trending, choppy, or in a potential mean-reversion phase.
RSI (Relative Strength Index) is also monitored for extreme levels (e.g., overbought/oversold) to detect potential reversal zones.
Volume is compared to a moving average to confirm or refute volatility conditions.
Trend & Mean Reversion Signals
EMA Alignment (8/21/55) helps identify bullish or bearish phases (strong bull if all EMAs align upward, strong bear if aligned downward).
For mean reversion opportunities, the script checks if ADX is sufficiently low (indicating weak or no trend) while price and RSI are at extreme levels—suggesting a snapback or countertrend move may occur.
Dynamic Stop Loss & Take Profit
Uses ATR (Average True Range) to set initial stop-loss (SL) and take-profit (TP) levels, then adjusts these levels further with “regime multipliers” based on whether the market is in a high-volatility trend or a quieter mean-reversion environment.
This approach aims to place stops and targets in a more adaptive way, reflecting current market conditions rather than a one-size-fits-all approach.
Visual Aids
Color-coded chart backgrounds (e.g., greenish for bullish trend, red for bearish, yellow/orange for mean reversion).
Triangles to show recent bullish/bearish signals.
A status table in the top-right corner (optional) displaying key metrics like ADX, RSI, dynamic thresholds, current SL/TP levels, and whether a stop loss has been hit.
How It Works Internally
ADX & Dynamic Thresholds:
A moving average (adx_mean) and standard deviation (adx_std) of the ADX are calculated over a lookback period to define “strong” vs. “weak” ADX thresholds.
This allows the script to adapt to changing volatility and trend strength in different markets or timeframes.
Mean Reversion Criteria:
The indicator checks if price deviates significantly from its own moving average, alongside RSI extremes. If ADX suggests no strong directional push (i.e., the market is “quiet”), it may classify conditions as mean-reverting.
Regime Multipliers:
Once the script identifies the market regime (e.g., strong uptrend, choppy, mean reversion), it applies different multipliers to the user-defined base values for stop-loss and take-profit. For instance, strong trending conditions might allow for wider stops to handle volatility, while mean reversion signals use tighter exits to capture quick reversals.
How to Use It
Timeframe Agnostic
Simply apply it to any timeframe (from 1-minute up to daily or weekly). The “Dynamic Timeframe Factor” will scale the indicator parameters automatically.
Look for Buy/Sell Triangles
When the script detects a valid bullish trend shift or a mean-reversion long setup, it plots a green triangle under the price bar. Conversely, it plots a red triangle above the price bar for bearish or mean-reversion short setups.
Check the Status Table
The table in the top-right corner summarizes the indicator’s current readings: ADX, RSI, volume trends, and the market regime classification.
The table also shows if a stop loss has been hit (SL Hit) and displays recommended SL/TP levels if a signal is active.
Stop Loss & Take Profit
The script plots lines for SL and TP on your chart after a new signal. These lines are automatically adjusted based on ATR, volume conditions, and ADX-derived multipliers.
Mean Reversion vs. Trend-Following
If you see a “Mean Rev” state in the table or the background turning yellow/orange, it suggests potential countertrend trades. Conversely, “STRONG BULL” or “STRONG BEAR” states favor momentum-based entries in the prevailing direction.
Originality & Benefits
Adaptive to Timeframe: Many indicators require reconfiguration when switching from short to long timeframes. This script automates that process using the “timeframe factor” logic.
Regime-Based SL/TP: Instead of fixed risk parameters, the script dynamically tunes stop and target levels depending on whether the market is trending or reverting.
Comprehensive Market View: It combines multiple factors—ADX, RSI, volume, moving averages, and volatility measurements—into a single, integrated framework that categorizes the market regime in real time.
Best Practices & Notes
Timeframes: It typically performs well on intraday timeframes (5m, 15m, 1H) but can also be used for swing trading on 4H or Daily charts.
Settings: The defaults are a good starting point, but you can adjust the base ATR multiplier or ADX lookbacks if you prefer a different balance between sensitivity and stability.
Risk Management: This indicator is not a guarantee of any specific results. Always use proper risk management (position sizing, stop-losses, and diversified strategies).
Alert Conditions: Built-in alert conditions can notify you when a new long or short signal appears, or when a stop loss is triggered.
Trend Type Indicator by BobRivera990Usage:
The purpose of this indicator is to programmatically determine the type of price trend using technical analysis tools.
You can do a quick check on the asset’s higher and lower time frames. For example, if you are trading on an H1 chart, you can check the m5 chart to ensure that the trend is in the same direction and similarly check the H4 chart to ensure that the higher time frame price is also moving in the same direction.
If multiple time frame charts confirm a similar trend, then it is considered a very strong trend and ideal for Trend trading.
Remarks:
By default, the last status is related to 8 periods before the latest closing price.
Related definitions:
The three basic types of trends are up, down, and sideways.
1. Uptrend
An uptrend describes the price movement of a financial asset when the overall direction is upward. The uptrend is composed of higher swing lows and higher swing highs.
Some market participants ("long" trend traders) only choose to trade during uptrends.
2. Downtrend
A downtrend refers to the price action of a security that moves lower in price as it fluctuates over time.
The downtrend is composed of lower swing lows and lower swing highs.
3. Sideways
A sideways trend is the horizontal price movement that occurs when the forces of supply and demand are nearly equal. This typically occurs during a period of consolidation before the price continues a prior trend or reverses into a new trend.
How it works:
Step 1: Sideways Trend Detection
In this step we want to distinguish the sideways trend from uptrend and downtrend. For this purpose, we use two common technical analysis tools: ATR and ADX
1. Average True Range (ATR)
The average true range (ATR) is a technical analysis indicator that measures market volatility.
We also use a 20-period moving average of the ATR.
When the ATR is below the average of its last 20-periods, it means that the rate of price volatility has decreased and we conclude that the current trend is sideways
2. Average Directional Index (ADX)
The average directional index (ADX) is a technical analysis indicator used by some traders to determine the strength of a trend.
The trend has strength when ADX is above 25.
So when the ADX is less than or equal to 25, there is no strong trend, and we conclude that the current type of trend is sideways.
Step 2: Detect uptrend from downtrend
If it turns out that the current price trend is not sideways, then it is either uptrend or downtrend.
For this purpose, we use plus and minus directional Indicators (+ DI & -DI).
A general interpretation would be that during a strong trend, when +DI is higher than -DI, it is an uptrend. When -DI is higher than +DI, it is a downtrend.

VIOP Scalping - OriginalVIOP Scalping – Original is a rule-based scalping strategy ported from an original C# logic set. It aims to trade only when trend direction, momentum, and trend strength align, then manages the position using fixed take-profit/stop-loss percentages with an optional trailing mechanism to protect gains during favorable moves.
This strategy is provided for educational and backtesting purposes only. It is not financial advice and does not guarantee profitability. Always test thoroughly before any live usage.
Core Concept
Follow the dominant WMA trend, confirm momentum with EMA separation, filter conditions with RSI + ADX, then exit using fixed TP/SL with trailing behavior after a defined profit threshold.
How the Strategy Works
Trend Direction is defined by WMA: above WMA = long bias, below WMA = short bias.
Momentum is measured via Fast EMA vs Slow EMA and the EMA difference.
Trend Strength is confirmed using ADX (must exceed a threshold).
RSI filters trades to avoid entering when momentum is likely overextended or weak.
A no-trade session blocks entries during a predefined time window (default 09:30–10:05).
Exit logic uses fixed percent TP/SL, with an optional trailing mechanism that activates after a profit threshold.
Inputs and Settings
Trend and Indicator Settings
Main Trend WMA: Determines directional bias (price above = long, price below = short).
Fast EMA / Slow EMA: Used to measure momentum and directional separation.
RSI Period: Filters entries based on RSI range constraints.
ADX Period: Measures trend strength (must exceed threshold to allow entries).
Threshold Settings
EMA Difference Threshold: Minimum EMA separation required to validate momentum.
ADX Threshold: Minimum ADX required to confirm trend strength.
RSI Long Ceiling: RSI must remain below this value for long entries.
RSI Short Floor: RSI must remain above this value for short entries.
Risk Management Settings
Take Profit %: Default TP distance in percent.
Strong Trend Take Profit %: Higher TP used when a “strong trend” condition is detected.
Stop Loss %: Fixed SL distance in percent.
Trailing Activation %: Profit threshold at which trailing starts.
Trailing Distance %: Trailing offset distance used once trailing is active.
Time Filter
No-Trade Hours: Default session is 09:30–10:05. During this window, the strategy does not open new trades.
Entry Logic
No-Trade Time Filter
If the current bar falls inside the no-trade session, entries are blocked.
Long Entry Conditions
Price is above the WMA trend line.
EMA difference is positive and greater than the EMA Difference Threshold.
EMA momentum is increasing (current EMA diff > previous EMA diff).
RSI is within the defined range (RSI > 48 and RSI < RSI Long Ceiling).
Close is higher than the previous close.
ADX is above the ADX Threshold.
Short Entry Conditions
Price is below the WMA trend line.
EMA difference is negative and lower than -EMA Difference Threshold.
Bearish momentum is increasing (current EMA diff < previous EMA diff).
RSI is within the defined range (RSI < 52 and RSI > RSI Short Floor).
Close is lower than the previous close.
ADX is above the ADX Threshold.
Strong Trend Logic (Dynamic TP Selection)
If price is far from the WMA (absolute distance > 20 points) AND EMA separation is strong (absolute EMA diff > 1.5 points), the strategy treats the environment as a strong trend.
In strong trend mode, the strategy uses “Strong Trend Take Profit %” instead of the default “Take Profit %”.
Exit Management (TP/SL + Trailing)
The strategy uses fixed percentage-based TP and SL levels.
Trailing logic is enabled via strategy.exit and activates only after price moves in profit by the defined Trailing Activation %.
Once activated, trailing follows price using the defined Trailing Distance % offset.
This is designed to secure partial gains during extended moves while still allowing room for continuation.
What You See on the Chart
WMA Trend Line (Main Trend Filter).
Fast EMA and Slow EMA (Momentum Confirmation).
Strategy entry/exit markers generated by TradingView.
Recommended Use
Scalping systems that rely on trend-following and momentum confirmation.
Markets where ADX filtering helps avoid choppy conditions.
Traders who want a simple, parameter-driven TP/SL system with trailing after confirmation.
Important Notes
The no-trade session depends on your chart/session settings. Ensure your symbol/session configuration matches your intended market hours.
Percent-based exits scale with price; results will vary across instruments and volatility regimes.
Always validate behavior using bar replay, forward testing, and realistic commission/slippage assumptions.

Advanced Candlestick Pattern DetectorWhat Does This Indicator Do?
This indicator looks at the way price moves in the market using candlesticks (those red and green bars you see on charts). It tries to find special patterns like Bullish Engulfing, Hammer, Doji, and others. When one of these patterns shows up, the indicator checks a bunch of filters to decide if the pattern is strong enough to be a signal to buy or sell.
The Main Parts of the Indicator
1. Candlestick Pattern Detection
Bullish Engulfing:
Imagine you see a small down candle (red) and then a big up candle (green) that completely “covers” the red one. That’s a bullish engulfing pattern. It can signal that buyers are taking over.
Bearish Engulfing:
The opposite of bullish engulfing. A small up candle (green) is followed by a big down candle (red) that covers the previous candle. This suggests sellers might be in control.
Hammer & Shooting Star:
Hammer: A candle with a very short body and a long shadow at the bottom. It shows that buyers stepped in after a drop.
Shooting Star:
Similar to the hammer but with a long shadow on top. It can indicate that sellers are starting to push the price down.
Doji:
A candle with almost no body. This means the opening and closing prices are very close. It shows indecision in the market.
Harami Patterns (Bullish & Bearish):
These are two-candle patterns where the second candle is completely inside the body of the first candle. They signal that the previous trend might be about to change.
Morning Star & Evening Star:
These are three-candle patterns.
Morning Star:
Often seen at the bottom of a downtrend, it can signal a reversal to an uptrend.
Evening Star:
Seen at the top of an uptrend, it can signal that the price may soon go down.
2. Filters: Making the Signals Smarter
The indicator doesn’t just rely on patterns. It uses several “filters” to decide if a pattern is strong enough to trade on. Here’s what each filter does:
a. Adaptive Thresholds (ATR-Based)
What It Is:
The indicator uses something called ATR (Average True Range) to see how much the price is moving (volatility).
How It Works:
Instead of using fixed numbers to decide if a candle is a Hammer or a Doji, it adjusts these numbers based on current market activity.
User Settings:
Use Adaptive Thresholds: Turn this on to let the indicator adjust automatically.
Body Factor, Shadow Factor, Doji Factor: These numbers are multipliers that decide how small or big the body and shadows of the candle should be. You can change them if you want the indicator to be more or less sensitive.
b. Volume Filter
What It Is:
Volume shows how many trades are happening.
How It Works:
The filter checks if the current volume is higher than the average volume (multiplied by a set factor). This helps ensure that the signal isn’t coming from a very quiet market.
User Settings:
Use Volume Filter: Turn this on if you want to ignore signals when there’s not much trading.
Volume MA Period & Volume Multiplier: These settings determine what “normal” volume is and how much higher the current volume must be to count.
c. Multi-Timeframe Trend Filter
What It Is:
This filter looks at a bigger picture by using a moving average (MA) from a higher timeframe (for example, daily charts).
How It Works:
For a bullish (buy) signal, the indicator checks if the price is above this MA.
For a bearish (sell) signal, the price must be below the MA.
User Settings:
Use Multi-Timeframe Trend Filter: Enable or disable this filter.
Higher Timeframe for Trend: Choose which timeframe (like Daily) to use.
Trend MA Type (SMA or EMA) & Trend MA Period: Choose the type of moving average and how many candles to average.
d. Additional Trend Filters (ADX & RSI)
ADX Filter:
What It Is:
ADX stands for Average Directional Index. It measures how strong a trend is.
How It Works:
If the ADX is above a certain threshold, it means the trend is strong.
User Setting:
ADX Threshold: Set the minimum strength the trend should have.
RSI Filter:
What It Is:
RSI (Relative Strength Index) tells you if the price is overbought (too high) or oversold (too low).
How It Works:
For a buy signal, RSI should be low (under a set threshold).
For a sell signal, RSI should be high (above a set threshold).
User Settings:
RSI Buy Threshold & RSI Sell Threshold: These set the levels for buying or selling.
3. How the Final Signal Is Determined
For a signal (buy or sell) to be generated, the indicator first checks if one of the candlestick patterns is present. Then it goes through all these filters (trend, volume, ADX, RSI). Only if everything is in line will it show:
A BUY signal when all bullish conditions are met.
A SELL signal when all bearish conditions are met.
4. Visual Elements on the Chart
Trend MA Line:
A blue line is drawn on your chart showing the moving average from the higher timeframe (if you enable the trend filter). This helps you see the overall direction of the market.
Labels on the Chart:
When a signal is detected, you’ll see:
A BUY label below the candle (green).
A SELL label above the candle (red).
Background Colors:
The chart background might change slightly (green for bullish and red for bearish) to give you a quick visual cue.
Histogram:
At the bottom, there is a histogram that shows +1 for bullish signals, -1 for bearish signals, and 0 when there’s no clear signal.
5. Alerts
Alerts are built into the indicator so you can get a notification when a signal appears. The alert messages are fixed strings, meaning they always say something like “BUY signal on at price .” You can set up these alerts in TradingView to be notified via sound, email, or pop-up.
How to Use and Adjust the Filters
Deciding on Patterns:
You can choose which candlestick patterns you want to detect by toggling the options (e.g., Bullish Engulfing, Hammer, etc.).
Adjusting Adaptive Thresholds:
If you feel that the indicator is too sensitive (or not sensitive enough) during volatile times, adjust the Body Factor, Shadow Factor, and Doji Factor. These change how the indicator recognizes different candle shapes based on market movement.
Volume Filter Settings:
Use Volume Filter:
Turn this on if you want to ignore signals when there’s not enough trading activity.
Adjust the Volume MA Period and Volume Multiplier to change what “normal” volume is for your chart.
Multi-Timeframe Trend Filter Settings:
Choose a higher timeframe (like Daily) to see the bigger picture trend. Select the type of moving average (SMA or EMA) and its period. This filter ensures you only trade in the direction of the overall trend.
ADX & RSI Filters:
ADX:
Adjust the ADX Threshold if you want to change the minimum strength of the trend needed for a signal.
RSI:
Set the RSI Buy Threshold (for oversold conditions) and RSI Sell Threshold (for overbought conditions) to refine when a signal is valid.
Summary
This indicator is like having a smart assistant that not only looks for specific price patterns (candlesticks) but also checks if the overall market conditions are right using several filters. By combining:
Pattern Detection
Adaptive thresholds (based on ATR)
Volume Checks
Multi-Timeframe Trend Analysis
Additional Trend Strength and Overbought/Oversold Indicators (ADX & RSI)
...it helps you decide if it might be a good time to buy or sell. You can customize each part to fit your trading style, and with the built-in alerts, you can be notified when everything lines up.

The script combines trend, momentum, and volume-based analyses to generate potential buying or selling signals, and it displays the results in a neatly formatted table with alerts for trading setups. Below is a detailed walkthrough of the script’s design, how traders can interpret its outputs, and recommendations for optimizing indicator inputs across different timeframes.
## Overview and Key Components
The script is designed to help traders assess multiple tokens by calculating several indicators for each one. The key components include:
- **Input Settings:**
- A comma-separated list of symbols to scan.
- Adjustable parameters for technical indicators such as ADX, RSI, MFI, and a custom Wave Trend indicator.
- Options to enable alerts and set update frequencies.
- **Indicator Calculations:**
- **ADX (Average Directional Index):** Measures trend strength. A value above the provided threshold indicates a strong trend, which is essential for validating momentum before entering a trade.
- **RSI (Relative Strength Index):** Helps determine overbought or oversold conditions. When the RSI is below the oversold level, it may present a buying opportunity, while an overbought condition (not explicitly part of this setup) could suggest selling.
- **MFI (Money Flow Index):** Similar in concept to RSI but incorporates volume, thus assessing buying and selling pressure. Values below the designated oversold threshold indicate potential undervaluation.
- **Wave Trend:** A custom indicator that calculates two components (WT1 and WT2); a crossover where WT1 moves from below to above WT2 (particularly near oversold levels) may signal a reversal and a potential entry point.
- **Scanning and Trading Zone:**
- The script identifies a *bullish setup* when the following conditions are met for a token:
- ADX exceeds the threshold (strong trend).
- Both RSI and MFI are below their oversold levels (indicating potential buying opportunities).
- A Wave Trend crossover confirms near-term reversal dynamics.
- A *trading zone* condition is also defined by specific ranges for ADX, RSI, MFI, and a limited difference between WT1 and WT2. This zone suggests that the token might be in a consolidation phase where even small moves may be significant.
- **Alerts and Table Reporting:**
- A table is generated, with each row corresponding to a token. The table contains columns for the symbol, ADX, RSI, MFI, WT1, WT2, and the trading zone status.
- Visual cues—such as different background colors—highlight tokens with a bullish setup or that are within the trading zone.
- Alerts are issued based on the detection of a bullish setup or entry into a trading zone. These alerts are limited per bar to avoid flooding the trader with notifications.
## How to Interpret the Indicator Outputs
Traders should use the indicator values as guidance, verifying them against their own analysis before making any trading decision. Here’s how to assess each output:
- **ADX:**
- **High values (above threshold):** Indicate strong trends. If other indicators confirm an oversold condition, a trader may consider a long position for a corrective reversal.
- **Low values:** Suggest that the market is not trending strongly, and caution should be taken when considering entry.
- **RSI and MFI:**
- **Below oversold levels:** These conditions are traditionally seen as signals that an asset is undervalued, potentially triggering a bounce.
- **Above typical resistance levels (not explicitly used here):** Would normally caution a trader against entering a long position.
- **Wave Trend (WT1 and WT2):**
- A crossover where WT1 moves upward above WT2 in an oversold environment can signal the beginning of a recovery or reversal, thereby reinforcing buy signals.
- **Trading Zone:**
- Being “in zone” means that the asset’s current values for ADX, RSI, MFI, and the closeness of the Wave Trend lines indicate a period of consolidation. This scenario might be suitable for both short-term scalping or as an early exit indicator, depending on further market analysis.
## Timeframe Optimization Input Table
Traders can optimize indicator inputs depending on the timeframe they use. The following table provides a set of recommended input values for various timeframes. These values are suggestions and should be adjusted based on market conditions and individual trading styles.
Timeframe ADX RSI MFI ADX RSI MFI WT Channel WT Average
5-min 10 10 10 20 30 20 7 15
15-min 12 12 12 22 30 20 9 18
1-hour 14 14 14 25 30 20 10 21
4-hour 16 16 16 27 30 20 12 24
1-day 18 18 18 30 30 20 14 28
Adjust these parameters directly in the script’s input settings to match the selected timeframe. For shorter timeframes (e.g., 5-min or 15-min), the shorter lengths help filter high-frequency noise. For longer timeframes (e.g., 1-day), longer input values may reduce false signals and capture more significant trends.
## Best Practices and Usage Tips
- **Token Limit:**
- Limit the number of tokens scanned to 10 per query line. If you need to scan more tokens, initiate a new query line. This helps manage screen real estate and ensures the table remains legible.
- **Confirming Signals:**
- Use this script as a starting point for identifying high potential trades. Each indicator’s output should be used to confirm your trading decision. Always cross-reference with additional technical analysis tools or market context.
- **Regular Review:**
- Since the script updates the table every few bars (as defined by the update frequency), review the table and alerts regularly. Market conditions change rapidly, so timely decisions are crucial.
## Conclusion
This Pine Script provides a comprehensive approach for scanning multiple cryptocurrencies using a combination of trend strength (ADX), momentum (RSI and MFI), and reversal signals (Wave Trend). By using the provided recommendation table for different timeframes and limiting the tokens to 20 per query line (with a maximum of four query lines), traders can streamline their scanning process and more effectively identify high probability tradable tokens. Ultimately, the outputs should be critically evaluated and combined with additional market research before executing any trades.
