This Pine Script indicator helps traders analyze volume dynamics in the stock or cryptocurrency market while simultaneously assessing buyer and seller pressure. Its use case revolves around identifying strong buying or selling activity, neutral conditions, and volume trends over different time periods. Below is a breakdown of how to use this indicator:
Key Features and Use Case
Volume-Based Insights:
Displays daily volume and compares it to the 3-day, 5-day, 10-day, and 20-day moving averages of volume. Helps traders identify days with unusual volume spikes relative to historical averages, signaling potential reversals or breakouts.
Buyer and Seller Pressure:
Measures buyer pressure: how much the closing price dominates the trading range of the day.
Measures seller pressure: how much the opening price dominates the trading range of the day.
Highlights areas where buying or selling pressure is particularly strong (≥ 0.75).
Background Signals:
Green Background: Strong buyer pressure (indicative of potential upward momentum).
Red Background: Strong seller pressure (indicative of potential downward momentum).
Gray Background: Neutral market conditions (neither buying nor selling dominance).
Alerts:
Alerts traders when:
Strong buying signals are detected.
Strong selling signals are detected.
The market is neutral, with neither buyers nor sellers in control.
Decision-Making Aid:
Combines volume analysis with price action (buyer/seller pressure) to help traders identify:
Potential breakout opportunities.
Reversal points.
Neutral zones where a trader might avoid trading due to indecision in the market.
How to Use It in Trading:------->
Add the Indicator:
Apply this Indicator to your Trading View chart to start visualizing the buyer/seller pressure and volume averages.
Interpret Volume Trends:
Look for days when daily volume significantly exceeds the 3-day, 5-day, 10-day, or 20-day average.
These could indicate:
A breakout when aligned with strong buyer pressure.
A sell-off when aligned with strong seller pressure.
React to Background Colors:
* Green Background (Strong Buyer Pressure):
Suggests buyers are dominating the market, and upward momentum is likely.
Use this signal to consider buying opportunities, especially if volume is above average.
* Red Background (Strong Seller Pressure):
Indicates sellers are in control, and prices might fall.
Use this signal to consider selling or shorting opportunities.
* Gray Background (Neutral Market):
Reflects indecision; avoid entering trades during these periods unless other signals support a strategy.
Volume Confirmation:
Combine volume analysis with buyer/seller pressure to confirm trends.
Example: A high daily volume with strong buyer pressure signals a high-probability uptrend.
Set Alerts:
Enable alerts to receive real-time notifications when the market generates strong buy/sell signals or enters a neutral zone.
Who Can Benefit:
* Day Traders: Quickly assess intraday market dynamics and volume trends.
* Swing Traders: Identify breakout opportunities or reversal points based on strong buyer/seller pressure.
* Volume Analysts: Compare historical volume averages to current conditions for deeper insights.
Limitations:
Does not guarantee success—should be combined with other technical indicators or strategies.
In low-volume markets, signals may produce false positives or unreliable results.
Assumes traders have basic knowledge of price action and volume analysis.
By integrating this indicator into your strategy, you gain a powerful tool to analyze buyer/seller dominance alongside volume trends, improving your market timing and trade execution.
The Buyer and Seller Pressure components in this indicator provide crucial insights into the market's sentiment and momentum by analyzing the price action relative to the trading volume. Here's how they are used:
1. Buyer Pressure:
Formula:
Buyer Pressure = (Close − Open) / (High − Low )
Interpretation:
* A high buyer pressure (≥ 0.75) indicates strong bullish sentiment, where the price closes much higher than it opened, and the range (high-low) is sufficiently wide.
* It identifies periods of aggressive buying, often signaling potential bullish trends or confirming upward momentum.
2. Seller Pressure:
Formula:
Seller Pressure = (Close − Open ) / (High -Low )
Interpretation:
*A high seller pressure (≥ 0.75) suggests strong bearish sentiment, where the price closes much lower than it opened, within a wide range.
*It helps identify periods of aggressive selling, signaling potential bearish trends or downward momentum.
Purpose in the Indicator:
1. Market Sentiment Analysis:
* Buyer Pressure and Seller Pressure allow traders to gauge market sentiment—whether buyers or sellers dominate a particular time frame.
* This helps in identifying trend reversals or confirmations.
2. Decision-Making Framework:
* The indicator uses thresholds (default 0.75) to classify the market into:
* Strong Buy Signal: When buyer pressure is dominant.
* Strong Sell Signal: When seller pressure is dominant.
* Neutral Signal: When neither buyer nor seller pressure dominates.
*This classification provides a straightforward decision-making tool for traders.
Risk Management:
*By identifying periods of strong buying or selling, traders can avoid entering trades in highly volatile or one-sided markets, which helps reduce risk.
Volume Confirmation:
*Integrating volume data with buyer/seller pressure helps confirm trends. For example:
*High buyer pressure accompanied by higher-than-average volume strengthens the bullish signal.
*Similarly, high seller pressure with higher-than-average volume confirms bearish signals.
Trade Timing:
*The indicator highlights conditions of potential entry (strong buy) or exit (strong sell), allowing traders to time their trades better based on real-time market activity.
Use Case:
*Example:
*Suppose the indicator shows Buyer Pressure = 0.85 with daily volume above the 3-day average. This combination suggests strong bullish activity with momentum, signaling a buy opportunity.
*Conversely, if Seller Pressure = 0.80 with volume above the 5-day average, it signals strong bearish momentum, ideal for selling or shorting.
This indicator combines buyer/seller pressure with volume dynamics, making it valuable for short-term and intraday traders looking for precise market entries and exits.
The background color in this indicator plays an important visual role in helping traders quickly identify the market sentiment based on buyer and seller pressure. It provides a dynamic, color-coded background that changes depending on the strength of the market's buying or selling activity.
Here's how it works:
Background Color Logic:
1. Green Background (Strong Buy Signal):
*Condition: The background turns green when buyer pressure is greater than or equal to 0.75 (strong buying pressure).
*Interpretation: A green background indicates that there is significant bullish sentiment in the market, with strong buying activity. Traders can interpret this as an environment conducive to buying or holding long positions.
*Visual Effect: This helps to quickly spot bullish market conditions, reinforcing potential entry signals for buyers.
2.Red Background (Strong Sell Signal):
*Condition: The background turns red when seller pressure is greater than or equal to 0.75 (strong selling pressure).
*Interpretation: A red background indicates that the market is dominated by selling, showing strong bearish sentiment. Traders can consider this as a signal to sell or short the asset.
*Visual Effect: The red background highlights moments when the market is heavily selling, prompting traders to either exit long positions or take short positions.
Gray Background (Neutral/Indecision Zone):
Condition: The background turns gray when neither buyer nor seller pressure exceeds 0.75. This means the market is neutral, with no dominant bullish or bearish sentiment.
Interpretation: A gray background suggests market indecision or balance between buyers and sellers. It can indicate periods of consolidation or sideways movement where no strong trend is forming.
Visual Effect: The gray background helps traders avoid entering trades when the market lacks a clear direction or when the sentiment is neutral, reducing risk during indecisive times.
Practical Use:
Instant Visual Confirmation:
*Traders can use the background color as an instant confirmation of the market’s sentiment. For instance, if the background turns green, traders might feel more confident in making a long (buy) trade.
*If the background turns red, it serves as a strong visual cue to short or exit a long position.
Helps with Trade Timing:
*The background color can be used in conjunction with other indicators and volume data to time entries and exits more effectively. For example:
*A green background with strong volume indicates a strong trend that could justify a buy.
*A red background with a significant volume surge signals strong selling pressure, which could prompt a sell.
Simplifies Market Analysis:
*For traders who prefer visual cues over complex analysis, the background color simplifies market conditions. Instead of focusing on individual numbers or values, the color-coded background gives them a quick, intuitive view of the market sentiment.
Summary:
* Green background = Strong buying pressure (bullish sentiment)
* Red background = Strong selling pressure (bearish sentiment)
* Gray background = Neutral market (indecision or balance between buyers and sellers)
This background color functionality helps traders stay aware of the prevailing market sentiment at a glance, providing an intuitive way to guide trading decisions.

CRT Trades (turtle soup, A-M-D ranges with inside bars)CRT means Candle Range Theory. Every single candle is a range, on every single timeframe. Ranges may be either manipulated - turtle souped or broken - engulfed - closed above/below and retested.
CRT is usually presented as a 3 candle model. However it may consist of more than 3 candles due to inside bars. Inside bar is the candle where high is not higher then previous candle high and low is not lower then previous candle low.
First candle represents accumulation (may consist of more candles - inside bars), second candle represents manipulation (turtle soup) and third candle represents distribution. The abbreviation for that is A-M-D.
In accumulation the range with specific high and low is created. In manipulation (turtle soup) the high or low of the range is manipulated - liquidity taken and price should usually reverse back to the range. In distribution price is reversing back to the opposite side of the range. On higher timeframe it looks like manipulation candle wick is higher/lower than previous range high/low (may consist of 1 or more inside bar candles) but the body must not close above/below previous range high/low. Otherwise it is not manipulation (turtle soup) most likely and price should continue in direction of the candle close. Distribution candle should touch opposite side of range and it is mostly heavy and fast candle.
CRT model can be found on higher timeframe (e.g. 4h) and entries can be found on lower timeframe (e.g. 15m). You always use only lower timeframe on your chart because CRT model on the higher timeframe is shown on the lower one and also you can plan entries on the lower timeframe. You are able to change CRT model higher timeframe in the indicator settings.
There are two types of entries:
simple - wait for manipulation candle to close on higher timeframe (HTF) and then enter on lower timeframe (LTF) above open of the distribution candle on HTF if it is short or on LTF below open of the distribution candle on HTF if it is long. These entries can be done by market order.
advanced - wait for the break of previous range high/low and enter by limit order when price reverses back to the range and retraces to the order block or fair value gap created by the breaker candle.
Stop loss can be placed above/below of the top/bottom created by manipulation candle. First take profit should be placed in 1/2 of the accumulation range and second take profit should be placed at the opposite range of accumulation range.
It is possible to filter only particular accumulation (range) and manipulation (turtle soup) candles depending also on timezone set in the settings. For example on 4h CRT model if you fill input "indices" for section "range" like 1,2 and input "indices" for section "turtle soup" like 3,4 then you are awaiting the range to form during asia session and manipulation during london session if the timezone is somewhere around "UTC+2".
Dotted lines represent turtle soup of previous range and solid lines represent engulfing candle of the breaker candle on lower timeframe. When the engulfing is closed you can look for entries either by market order after closing or by limit order when the price retraces to order block (created by breaker candle) or fair value gap (created by engulfing).
Recommendations for combining lower (entries) and higher (crt model) timeframes:
1D CRT model => 1h entries,
4h CRT model => 15m entries,
1h CRT model => 5m entries,
15m CRT model => 1m entries.
Algos Asia Sweep"Algos Asia Sweep" Indicator is here to help "Asia sweep" traders with statistics and technical analysis.
This indicator includes three main parts:
1. It shows the three major sessions (Asia, London, and New York) as three boxes on the chart, so users can easily find the difference in volume and volatility in each session and use it to take trades with their own strategy.
2. It displays a "statistics table" in the upper-right corner of the chart with information about the breakouts of Asia session highs and lows during the last X days (the number of days used for the calculations can be changed depending on different timeframes and the TradingView edition the user has; it appears in the "session counted" row).
3. It indicates on each day if the Asia session high/low has been broken by creating a circle above the first bar that breaks the Asia high and below the first bar that breaks the Asia low. In addition, it creates a horizontal line at the last session's Asia low and high if they have not yet been broken.
HOW THE CALCULATIONS WORK?
Every day, the script finds each session's high and low. The script counts the number of Asia sessions that have occurred since it started working, and on each day, it identifies if the Asia session high/low/both have been broken. At the end, the indicator divides the number of times the Asia session high/low/both have been broken by the number of sessions executed.
-The indicator is set to GMT+3. Change it to your timezone.
-The indicator can't be used in higher timeframes than 4H, and it is not recommended to use it in higher timeframes than 1H.
-Everything you get from this indicator is NOT considered trading advice. The programmer is not a financial advisor. Any action/decision you make based on this indicator is at your own discretion. Always do your own research and trade only based on your personal judgment.

Efficiency and Adaptability: Efficiently loops through a predefined set of angles, applying them to the anchored price point to calculate and project support and resistance levels, demonstrating the script's adaptability to both intraday and longer-term analysis.
Mathematical Formulation and Indicator Logic
Initial Setup and Inputs
The indicator starts by capturing user inputs for the anchor point—this can be a High, Low, Open, or Close price at a specified anchor time. These inputs determine the base price (P-base) from which all calculations are derived.
High if Anchor Type = "High"
Low if Anchor Type = "Low"
Open if Anchor Type = "Open"
Close if Anchor Type = "Close"
Angular Shifts and Projection Basis
The core of the "Anchored Square of 9" methodology involves calculating support and resistance levels through angular shifts applied to the Price-base (P-base).
The indicator enables a series of angular shifts, specified by the user, to project these levels dynamically.
Angular shifts are interpreted through the lens of Gann's theory, with each degree corresponding to a potential market turn or equilibrium point.
The script translates these angles into actionable projections using the square root of the anchor price, then applies the angular coefficients to find deviation points.
Angular Coefficients and Pi
In the context of the "Anchored Square of 9" indicator, angular shifts are crucial for projecting potential support and resistance levels. These shifts are quantified by angular coefficients derived from geometric principles, specifically leveraging the relationship between angles in degrees and their radian counterparts using π (Pi). Here's how angular coefficients are integrated:
Pi Reference for Angular Shifts: Given that 360° equates to 2π radians, angular coefficients (θ) for the indicator are calculated by translating degrees into a radian measure and then applying this measure to modify the square root of the base price (P-base).
Example of Angular Coefficients Shift:
A 180° shift corresponds to π radians. In the indicator's formula, this would translate to an angular coefficient of 1, since 180° = π in terms of π. Thus, applying this angular shift involves adding or subtracting 1 from the square root of P-base and then squaring the result to project a new price level.
Similarly, a 90° shift, equating to π/2, would have an angular coefficient equivalent to 0.5, reflecting its proportion of the circle (or square, in the context of Gann's geometry).
Implementation in Calculation of Deviations
Incorporating π into the formula for calculating deviations enriches the indicator's mathematical foundation, providing a direct link to geometric principles:
For each selected angular shift (θ), the script calculates positive and negative deviations from the square root of the anchor price. These deviations represent potential support and resistance levels.
P± = round (( sqrt root (P-base) ± θ)²)
Where:
P ± represents the calculated price levels for support (-) and resistance levels (+);
θ is the angular coefficient derived from the user-selected angular shifts;
sqrt root (P-base) is the square root of the base price;
round (⋅) ensures that the calculated levels are adjusted to the nearest tick size, maintaining relevance to actual trading scenarios.
Dynamic Projections and Visualization
The script generates lines and labels for these calculated levels, dynamically extending them as new market data becomes available. This feature ensures that traders have the most current and relevant information for decision-making.
For visualization:
Equilibrium Lines: Drawn at P-base to indicate the anchor or equilibrium point.
Support and Resistance Lines: Drawn at P- and P+, respectively, showing potential levels of market reaction
CME_MINI:NQH2024
Labeling and Style Customization
The indicator provides extensive customization for the appearance of projection lines and labels. Traders can select the line style, color, and text information (levels, prices, or both) to be displayed, tailoring the visual output to their preferences and trading strategy.
Implementation Details
This detailed approach to calculating support and resistance levels showcases the indicator's adherence to Gann's principles while leveraging modern computational methods to enhance trading analysis.

Live Economic Calendar by toodegrees⚠️ PLEASE READ ⚠️
Although this indicator is accurate in showcasing live and upcoming News Events, checking the original sources is always suggested. This indicator aims to save Time, but due to limitations it may not be 100% correct 100% of the Time.
Description:
The Live Economic Calendar indicator seamlessly integrates with external news sources to provide real-Time, upcoming, and past financial news directly on your Tradingview chart.
By having a clear understanding of when news are planned to be released, as well as their respective impact, analysts can prepare their weeks and days in advance. These injections of volatility can be harnessed by analysts to support their thesis, or may want to be avoided to ensure higher probability market conditions. Fundamentals and news releases transcend the boundaries of technical analysis, as their effects are difficult to predict or estimate.
Designed for both novice and experienced traders, the Live Economic Calendar indicator enhances your analysis by keeping you informed of the latest and upcoming market-moving news.
This is achieved with three different visual components:
News Table: A dedicated News Table shows the Day of the Week, Date, Time of the Day, Currency, Expected Impact, and News Name for each event (in chronological order). Once a news event has occurred, or the day is over, it will be greyed out – helping to focus on the next upcoming news events.
News Lines: Vertical lines plotted in the future help analysts monitor upcoming news events; vertical lines in the past help analysts spot and backtest previous news events that already occurred.
News Labels: Color-coded news labels will plot once the news events have occurred. This not only gives analysts a minimalistic visual cue, but also retains the information of which news were released at that Time in their tooltips.
Forex Factory Calendar News Feed:
The Forex Factory Data Feed includes news events from January 2007 to the present. The data is updated daily. Please see the Technical Description below for more information.
Forex Factory provides news for all major currencies and markets:
Australia (AUD)
Canada (CAD)
Switzerland (CHF)
China (CNY)
European Union (EUR)
United Kingdom (GBP)
Japan (JPY)
New Zealand (NZD)
United States of America (USD)
Further, there are four types of news impact, defined by respective color-coding which is retained to avoid confusion:
⚪ Holiday
🟡 Low Impact
🟠 Medium Impact
🔴 High Impact
News' Time of the day data is in 24H format, and 'All Day' news are marked at Daily candle open.
⚠️ Original Release Notes ⚠️
The original release of this indicator supports the Forex Factory News Calendar in EST (New York Time). Future updates will include multiple news sources, as well as supporting different Timezones.
Given Data limitations, the Daily chart can omit some data due to the market being close on some days. This will be fixed in the future once an efficient solution is implemented.
Key Features:
Impact-Based News Filtering: Filter news items based on their expected impact (holiday, low, medium, high) to focus on the most market-critical information.
Symbol-Specific News: Automatically filter news to display only what's relevant to the currency pair or trading symbol you are analyzing.
Custom Currency News: Want to see more than the news relevant to the current symbol? Toggle which markets' news you are most interested in.
Chart History: Keep your charts clean by displaying only the drawings of Today's news, or This Week's news.
Custom Lookback: Look further back in Time by choosing a custom number of Lookback Days, allowing you to backtest and keep in mind salient news events from the past.
Line and Label Customization: Both the News Lines and Labels are highly customizable (except the colors), allowing you to make the indicator yours.
Table History: Choose whether to focus on Today's news only, or the news for This Week.
Table Customization: The table colors and position are highly customizable, allowing you to make it fit your visual preference and your layouts' aesthetic.
"Wondering how it's done? 👇"
Technical Description:
This script utilizes Pine Seeds , a service integrated with TradingView for importing custom data. This stunning feature enables users to upload and access custom End Of Day (EOD) data, which can be updated as frequently as five times daily.
This data can be imported in one of two formats:
Single Value: integer or float
Candle Data: open, high, low, close, volume
Upon encountering Pine Seeds, I recognized its potential for importing financial news events. Given that Forex Factory is a primary source of financial news in my personal analysis, integrating it into my layouts seemed like an exciting opportunity. This integration is expected to provide significant value to users looking to integrate additional news feeds all in one place.
Development Challenges:
Format Limitations: News events must be converted into numerical values for import, due to the required Pine Seeds format.
Amount of Data: With all currencies considered, the system may encounter over 40 news events in a single day.
Data Availability: The reliance on End Of Day (EOD) data means that information for the current day is displayed with a delay, and accessing future data is not possible.
Solutions:
Encoding: Each news event is encoded as an integer in the "DCHHMMITYP" format.
D = day of the week
C = currency
HHMM = Time of day
I = news impact
TYP = event ID (see Event Library A and Event Library B )
To ensure data assignment for each candle across the open, high, low, close, and volume series, the value "999" is used as a placeholder:
Importing: Utilizing the encoding system, up to five news events per day can be imported for a singular Pine Seeds custom symbol.
By creating multiple custom Pine Seeds Symbols, efficient imports of a larger number of events is then easily achievable. Nine unique symbols have been established, accommodating up to 45 news events per day.
These symbols are searchable, and accessible as " TOODEGREES_FOREX_FACTORY_SLOT_N " where N ranges from 1 to 9.
The Pine Seeds data feed appears as follows:
Uploading Schedule: To ensure analysts are informed about current and upcoming week's news, events are uploaded one week in advance.
This approach is vital for preparing for potential market impacts across various asset classes and currencies, allowing visibility of an entire week's news ahead of Time.
Data Scraping:
Unfortunately Forex Factory doesn't offer an API to fetch their news feed.
Hence an ad hoc python scraper was developed to read and save news events from January 2007 till the present leveraging Selenium. The scraper algorithm is part of a larger script responsible for scraping data, formatting data, and creating all necessary datasets.
The pseudo-code for the python script is as follows:
Read and save news event data on Forex Factory
Format day of the week, currency, Time of the day, and impact data for the Encoding
Encode and save News Event IDs – Event ID dataset is created
Format news data for Pine Seeds (roll-back date by one week, assign news to open, high, low, close, and volume values)
Create Pine Seeds Datasets
This script is ran everyday at Futures market close (16:00 EST) to update the last part of the each dataset, ensuring accuracy, and taking into account last-minute news additions or revisions.
Once the data (next week's news) is imported by the Live Economic Calendar indicator, it's immediately decoded by leveraging the Forex Factory Decoding Library , and saved into an array.
Upon a new week open, the decoded data is used to plot news events on the chart and in the news table.
See the inner workings of these processes in the Forex Factory Utility Library .
Although these libraries are specifically built for this indicator, feel free to use them to create your own scripts. Looking forward to see what the Pine Script community comes up with!
Thank you for making it this far. Enjoy!

- Structural analysis is a pivotal component of this indicator. By recognizing the fundamental elements of market structure, traders can make informed decisions regarding trend direction, potential reversals, and optimal entry and exit points.
1.3 Rules for Structure Mapping:
Let's explore some key definitions:
- Inside bars: These are candles that exist within the range of a preceding candle.
- Pullbacks: In an uptrend, a valid pullback occurs when the low of a previous candle's range (excluding inside bars) is breached, and the price continues to rise.
- Inducements (IDM): An inducement is a price level. In an uptrend, it is defined as the low of the latest pullback before the highest high. It is considered a liquidity area, often revisited by the market to access liquidity before continuing its upward movement.
- Break of Structure (BoS): In an uptrend, after surpassing an IDM , the highest high becomes a Confirmed structure high, or a Major High . If the price then closes above this Major High, a Bullish Break of Structure (Bullish BoS) is confirmed. Similarly, the lowest point between these movements becomes a Confirmed structure low or Major Low in a downtrend.
Change of Character (ChoCh):
In an uptrend, if the price falls below a Major Low, it indicates a shift in market bias from Bullish to Bearish, or a Bearish Change of Character.
Example of a bullish ChoCh:
Chapter 2: Demand & Supply Zones
2.1 Introduction to Demand & Supply Zones:
- Demand and Supply zones are critical areas on a price chart where significant buying or selling pressure is expected. This indicator highlights these zones, enabling traders to anticipate potential price reactions.

GKD-C Digital Kahler MACD [Loxx]Giga Kaleidoscope GKD-C Digital Kahler MACD is a Confirmation module included in Loxx's "Giga Kaleidoscope Modularized Trading System".
█ Giga Kaleidoscope Modularized Trading System
What is Loxx's "Giga Kaleidoscope Modularized Trading System"?
The Giga Kaleidoscope Modularized Trading System is a trading system built on the philosophy of the NNFX (No Nonsense Forex) algorithmic trading.
What is the NNFX algorithmic trading strategy?
The NNFX (No-Nonsense Forex) trading system is a comprehensive approach to Forex trading that is designed to simplify the process and remove the confusion and complexity that often surrounds trading. The system was developed by a Forex trader who goes by the pseudonym "VP" and has gained a significant following in the Forex community.
The NNFX trading system is based on a set of rules and guidelines that help traders make objective and informed decisions. These rules cover all aspects of trading, including market analysis, trade entry, stop loss placement, and trade management.
Here are the main components of the NNFX trading system:
1. Trading Philosophy: The NNFX trading system is based on the idea that successful trading requires a comprehensive understanding of the market, objective analysis, and strict risk management. The system aims to remove subjective elements from trading and focuses on objective rules and guidelines.
2. Technical Analysis: The NNFX trading system relies heavily on technical analysis and uses a range of indicators to identify high-probability trading opportunities. The system uses a combination of trend-following and mean-reverting strategies to identify trades.
3. Market Structure: The NNFX trading system emphasizes the importance of understanding the market structure, including price action, support and resistance levels, and market cycles. The system uses a range of tools to identify the market structure, including trend lines, channels, and moving averages.
4. Trade Entry: The NNFX trading system has strict rules for trade entry. The system uses a combination of technical indicators to identify high-probability trades, and traders must meet specific criteria to enter a trade.
5. Stop Loss Placement: The NNFX trading system places a significant emphasis on risk management and requires traders to place a stop loss order on every trade. The system uses a combination of technical analysis and market structure to determine the appropriate stop loss level.
6. Trade Management: The NNFX trading system has specific rules for managing open trades. The system aims to minimize risk and maximize profit by using a combination of trailing stops, take profit levels, and position sizing.
Overall, the NNFX trading system is designed to be a straightforward and easy-to-follow approach to Forex trading that can be applied by traders of all skill levels.
Core components of an NNFX algorithmic trading strategy
The NNFX algorithm is built on the principles of trend, momentum, and volatility. There are six core components in the NNFX trading algorithm:
1. Volatility - price volatility; e.g., Average True Range, True Range Double, Close-to-Close, etc.
2. Baseline - a moving average to identify price trend
3. Confirmation 1 - a technical indicator used to identify trends
4. Confirmation 2 - a technical indicator used to identify trends
5. Continuation - a technical indicator used to identify trends
6. Volatility/Volume - a technical indicator used to identify volatility/volume breakouts/breakdown
7. Exit - a technical indicator used to determine when a trend is exhausted
What is Volatility in the NNFX trading system?
In the NNFX (No Nonsense Forex) trading system, ATR (Average True Range) is typically used to measure the volatility of an asset. It is used as a part of the system to help determine the appropriate stop loss and take profit levels for a trade. ATR is calculated by taking the average of the true range values over a specified period.
True range is calculated as the maximum of the following values:
-Current high minus the current low
-Absolute value of the current high minus the previous close
-Absolute value of the current low minus the previous close
ATR is a dynamic indicator that changes with changes in volatility. As volatility increases, the value of ATR increases, and as volatility decreases, the value of ATR decreases. By using ATR in NNFX system, traders can adjust their stop loss and take profit levels according to the volatility of the asset being traded. This helps to ensure that the trade is given enough room to move, while also minimizing potential losses.
Other types of volatility include True Range Double (TRD), Close-to-Close, and Garman-Klass
What is a Baseline indicator?
The baseline is essentially a moving average, and is used to determine the overall direction of the market.
The baseline in the NNFX system is used to filter out trades that are not in line with the long-term trend of the market. The baseline is plotted on the chart along with other indicators, such as the Moving Average (MA), the Relative Strength Index (RSI), and the Average True Range (ATR).
Trades are only taken when the price is in the same direction as the baseline. For example, if the baseline is sloping upwards, only long trades are taken, and if the baseline is sloping downwards, only short trades are taken. This approach helps to ensure that trades are in line with the overall trend of the market, and reduces the risk of entering trades that are likely to fail.
By using a baseline in the NNFX system, traders can have a clear reference point for determining the overall trend of the market, and can make more informed trading decisions. The baseline helps to filter out noise and false signals, and ensures that trades are taken in the direction of the long-term trend.
What is a Confirmation indicator?
Confirmation indicators are technical indicators that are used to confirm the signals generated by primary indicators. Primary indicators are the core indicators used in the NNFX system, such as the Average True Range (ATR), the Moving Average (MA), and the Relative Strength Index (RSI).
The purpose of the confirmation indicators is to reduce false signals and improve the accuracy of the trading system. They are designed to confirm the signals generated by the primary indicators by providing additional information about the strength and direction of the trend.
Some examples of confirmation indicators that may be used in the NNFX system include the Bollinger Bands, the MACD (Moving Average Convergence Divergence), and the MACD Oscillator. These indicators can provide information about the volatility, momentum, and trend strength of the market, and can be used to confirm the signals generated by the primary indicators.
In the NNFX system, confirmation indicators are used in combination with primary indicators and other filters to create a trading system that is robust and reliable. By using multiple indicators to confirm trading signals, the system aims to reduce the risk of false signals and improve the overall profitability of the trades.
What is a Continuation indicator?
In the NNFX (No Nonsense Forex) trading system, a continuation indicator is a technical indicator that is used to confirm a current trend and predict that the trend is likely to continue in the same direction. A continuation indicator is typically used in conjunction with other indicators in the system, such as a baseline indicator, to provide a comprehensive trading strategy.
What is a Volatility/Volume indicator?
Volume indicators, such as the On Balance Volume (OBV), the Chaikin Money Flow (CMF), or the Volume Price Trend (VPT), are used to measure the amount of buying and selling activity in a market. They are based on the trading volume of the market, and can provide information about the strength of the trend. In the NNFX system, volume indicators are used to confirm trading signals generated by the Moving Average and the Relative Strength Index. Volatility indicators include Average Direction Index, Waddah Attar, and Volatility Ratio. In the NNFX trading system, volatility is a proxy for volume and vice versa.
By using volume indicators as confirmation tools, the NNFX trading system aims to reduce the risk of false signals and improve the overall profitability of trades. These indicators can provide additional information about the market that is not captured by the primary indicators, and can help traders to make more informed trading decisions. In addition, volume indicators can be used to identify potential changes in market trends and to confirm the strength of price movements.
What is an Exit indicator?
The exit indicator is used in conjunction with other indicators in the system, such as the Moving Average (MA), the Relative Strength Index (RSI), and the Average True Range (ATR), to provide a comprehensive trading strategy.
The exit indicator in the NNFX system can be any technical indicator that is deemed effective at identifying optimal exit points. Examples of exit indicators that are commonly used include the Parabolic SAR, the Average Directional Index (ADX), and the Chandelier Exit.
The purpose of the exit indicator is to identify when a trend is likely to reverse or when the market conditions have changed, signaling the need to exit a trade. By using an exit indicator, traders can manage their risk and prevent significant losses.
In the NNFX system, the exit indicator is used in conjunction with a stop loss and a take profit order to maximize profits and minimize losses. The stop loss order is used to limit the amount of loss that can be incurred if the trade goes against the trader, while the take profit order is used to lock in profits when the trade is moving in the trader's favor.
Overall, the use of an exit indicator in the NNFX trading system is an important component of a comprehensive trading strategy. It allows traders to manage their risk effectively and improve the profitability of their trades by exiting at the right time.
How does Loxx's GKD (Giga Kaleidoscope Modularized Trading System) implement the NNFX algorithm outlined above?
Loxx's GKD v1.0 system has five types of modules (indicators/strategies). These modules are:
1. GKD-BT - Backtesting module (Volatility, Number 1 in the NNFX algorithm)
2. GKD-B - Baseline module (Baseline and Volatility/Volume, Numbers 1 and 2 in the NNFX algorithm)
3. GKD-C - Confirmation 1/2 and Continuation module (Confirmation 1/2 and Continuation, Numbers 3, 4, and 5 in the NNFX algorithm)
4. GKD-V - Volatility/Volume module (Confirmation 1/2, Number 6 in the NNFX algorithm)
5. GKD-E - Exit module (Exit, Number 7 in the NNFX algorithm)
(additional module types will added in future releases)
Each module interacts with every module by passing data between modules. Data is passed between each module as described below:
GKD-B => GKD-V => GKD-C(1) => GKD-C(2) => GKD-C(Continuation) => GKD-E => GKD-BT
That is, the Baseline indicator passes its data to Volatility/Volume. The Volatility/Volume indicator passes its values to the Confirmation 1 indicator. The Confirmation 1 indicator passes its values to the Confirmation 2 indicator. The Confirmation 2 indicator passes its values to the Continuation indicator. The Continuation indicator passes its values to the Exit indicator, and finally, the Exit indicator passes its values to the Backtest strategy.
This chaining of indicators requires that each module conform to Loxx's GKD protocol, therefore allowing for the testing of every possible combination of technical indicators that make up the six components of the NNFX algorithm.
What does the application of the GKD trading system look like?
Example trading system:
Backtest: Strategy with 1-3 take profits, trailing stop loss, multiple types of PnL volatility, and 2 backtesting styles
Baseline: Hull Moving Average
Volatility/Volume: Hurst Exponent
Confirmation 1: Digital Kahler MACD as shown on the chart above
Confirmation 2: Williams Percent Range
Continuation: Fisher Transform
Exit: Rex Oscillator
Each GKD indicator is denoted with a module identifier of either: GKD-BT, GKD-B, GKD-C, GKD-V, or GKD-E. This allows traders to understand to which module each indicator belongs and where each indicator fits into the GKD protocol chain.

█ GKD-C Digital Kahler MACD
What is Digital Kahler?
From Philipp Kahler's article for www.traders-mag.com, August 2008. "A Classic Indicator in a New Suit: Digital Stochastic"
Digital Indicators
Whenever you study the development of trading systems in particular, you will be struck in an extremely unpleasant way by the seemingly unmotivated indentations and changes in direction of each indicator. An experienced trader can recognise many false signals of the indicator on the basis of his solid background; a stupid trading system usually falls into any trap offered by the unclear indicator course. This is what motivated me to improve even further this and other indicators with the help of a relatively simple procedure. The goal of this development is to be able to use this indicator in a trading system with as few additional conditions as possible. Discretionary traders will likewise be happy about this clear course, which is not nerve-racking and makes concentrating on the essential elements of trading possible.
How Is It Done?
The digital stochastic is a child of the original indicator. We owe a debt of gratitude to George Lane for his idea to design an indicator which describes the position of the current price within the high-low range of the historical price movement. My contribution to this indicator is the changed pattern which improves the quality of the signal without generating too long delays in giving signals. The trick used to generate this “digital” behavior of the indicator. It can be used with most oscillators like RSI or CCI.
First of all, the original is looked at. The indicator always moves between 0 and 100. The precise position of the indicator or its course relative to the trigger line are of no interest to me, I would just like to know whether the indicator is quoted below or above the value 50. This is tantamount to the question of whether the market is just trading above or below the middle of the high-low range of the past few days. If the market trades in the upper half of its high-low range, then the digital stochastic is given the value 1; if the original stochastic is below 50, then the value –1 is given. This leads to a sequence of 1/-1 values – the digital core of the new indicator. These values are subsequently smoothed by means of a short exponential moving average . This way minor false signals are eliminated and the indicator is given its typical form.

By using ATR in NNFX system, traders can adjust their stop loss and take profit levels according to the volatility of the asset being traded. This helps to ensure that the trade is given enough room to move, while also minimizing potential losses.
Other types of volatility include True Range Double (TRD), Close-to-Close, and Garman-Klass
What is a Baseline indicator?
The baseline is essentially a moving average, and is used to determine the overall direction of the market.
The baseline in the NNFX system is used to filter out trades that are not in line with the long-term trend of the market. The baseline is plotted on the chart along with other indicators, such as the Moving Average (MA), the Relative Strength Index (RSI), and the Average True Range (ATR).
Trades are only taken when the price is in the same direction as the baseline. For example, if the baseline is sloping upwards, only long trades are taken, and if the baseline is sloping downwards, only short trades are taken. This approach helps to ensure that trades are in line with the overall trend of the market, and reduces the risk of entering trades that are likely to fail.
By using a baseline in the NNFX system, traders can have a clear reference point for determining the overall trend of the market, and can make more informed trading decisions. The baseline helps to filter out noise and false signals, and ensures that trades are taken in the direction of the long-term trend.
What is a Confirmation indicator?
Confirmation indicators are technical indicators that are used to confirm the signals generated by primary indicators. Primary indicators are the core indicators used in the NNFX system, such as the Average True Range (ATR), the Moving Average (MA), and the Relative Strength Index (RSI).
The purpose of the confirmation indicators is to reduce false signals and improve the accuracy of the trading system. They are designed to confirm the signals generated by the primary indicators by providing additional information about the strength and direction of the trend.
Some examples of confirmation indicators that may be used in the NNFX system include the Bollinger Bands, the MACD (Moving Average Convergence Divergence), and the CCI Oscillator. These indicators can provide information about the volatility, momentum, and trend strength of the market, and can be used to confirm the signals generated by the primary indicators.
In the NNFX system, confirmation indicators are used in combination with primary indicators and other filters to create a trading system that is robust and reliable. By using multiple indicators to confirm trading signals, the system aims to reduce the risk of false signals and improve the overall profitability of the trades.
What is a Continuation indicator?
In the NNFX (No Nonsense Forex) trading system, a continuation indicator is a technical indicator that is used to confirm a current trend and predict that the trend is likely to continue in the same direction. A continuation indicator is typically used in conjunction with other indicators in the system, such as a baseline indicator, to provide a comprehensive trading strategy.
What is a Volatility/Volume indicator?
Volume indicators, such as the On Balance Volume (OBV), the Chaikin Money Flow (CMF), or the Volume Price Trend (VPT), are used to measure the amount of buying and selling activity in a market. They are based on the trading volume of the market, and can provide information about the strength of the trend. In the NNFX system, volume indicators are used to confirm trading signals generated by the Moving Average and the Relative Strength Index. Volatility indicators include Average Direction Index, Waddah Attar, and Volatility Ratio. In the NNFX trading system, volatility is a proxy for volume and vice versa.
By using volume indicators as confirmation tools, the NNFX trading system aims to reduce the risk of false signals and improve the overall profitability of trades. These indicators can provide additional information about the market that is not captured by the primary indicators, and can help traders to make more informed trading decisions. In addition, volume indicators can be used to identify potential changes in market trends and to confirm the strength of price movements.
What is an Exit indicator?
The exit indicator is used in conjunction with other indicators in the system, such as the Moving Average (MA), the Relative Strength Index (RSI), and the Average True Range (ATR), to provide a comprehensive trading strategy.
The exit indicator in the NNFX system can be any technical indicator that is deemed effective at identifying optimal exit points. Examples of exit indicators that are commonly used include the Parabolic SAR, the Average Directional Index (ADX), and the Chandelier Exit.
The purpose of the exit indicator is to identify when a trend is likely to reverse or when the market conditions have changed, signaling the need to exit a trade. By using an exit indicator, traders can manage their risk and prevent significant losses.
In the NNFX system, the exit indicator is used in conjunction with a stop loss and a take profit order to maximize profits and minimize losses. The stop loss order is used to limit the amount of loss that can be incurred if the trade goes against the trader, while the take profit order is used to lock in profits when the trade is moving in the trader's favor.
Overall, the use of an exit indicator in the NNFX trading system is an important component of a comprehensive trading strategy. It allows traders to manage their risk effectively and improve the profitability of their trades by exiting at the right time.
How does Loxx's GKD (Giga Kaleidoscope Modularized Trading System) implement the NNFX algorithm outlined above?
Loxx's GKD v1.0 system has five types of modules (indicators/strategies). These modules are:
1. GKD-BT - Backtesting module (Volatility, Number 1 in the NNFX algorithm)
2. GKD-B - Baseline module (Baseline and Volatility/Volume, Numbers 1 and 2 in the NNFX algorithm)
3. GKD-C - Confirmation 1/2 and Continuation module (Confirmation 1/2 and Continuation, Numbers 3, 4, and 5 in the NNFX algorithm)
4. GKD-V - Volatility/Volume module (Confirmation 1/2, Number 6 in the NNFX algorithm)
5. GKD-E - Exit module (Exit, Number 7 in the NNFX algorithm)
(additional module types will added in future releases)
Each module interacts with every module by passing data between modules. Data is passed between each module as described below:
GKD-B => GKD-V => GKD-C(1) => GKD-C(2) => GKD-C(Continuation) => GKD-E => GKD-BT
That is, the Baseline indicator passes its data to Volatility/Volume. The Volatility/Volume indicator passes its values to the Confirmation 1 indicator. The Confirmation 1 indicator passes its values to the Confirmation 2 indicator. The Confirmation 2 indicator passes its values to the Continuation indicator. The Continuation indicator passes its values to the Exit indicator, and finally, the Exit indicator passes its values to the Backtest strategy.
This chaining of indicators requires that each module conform to Loxx's GKD protocol, therefore allowing for the testing of every possible combination of technical indicators that make up the six components of the NNFX algorithm.
What does the application of the GKD trading system look like?
Example trading system:
Backtest: Strategy with 1-3 take profits, trailing stop loss, multiple types of PnL volatility, and 2 backtesting styles
Baseline: Hull Moving Average
Volatility/Volume: Hurst Exponent
Confirmation 1: Digital Kahler CCI as shown on the chart above
Confirmation 2: Williams Percent Range
Continuation: Fisher Transform
Exit: Rex Oscillator
Each GKD indicator is denoted with a module identifier of either: GKD-BT, GKD-B, GKD-C, GKD-V, or GKD-E. This allows traders to understand to which module each indicator belongs and where each indicator fits into the GKD protocol chain.

█ GKD-C Digital Kahler CCI
What is Digital Kahler?
From Philipp Kahler's article for www.traders-mag.com, August 2008. "A Classic Indicator in a New Suit: Digital Stochastic"
Digital Indicators
Whenever you study the development of trading systems in particular, you will be struck in an extremely unpleasant way by the seemingly unmotivated indentations and changes in direction of each indicator. An experienced trader can recognize many false signals of the indicator on the basis of his solid background; a stupid trading system usually falls into any trap offered by the unclear indicator course. This is what motivated me to improve even further this and other indicators with the help of a relatively simple procedure. The goal of this development is to be able to use this indicator in a trading system with as few additional conditions as possible. Discretionary traders will likewise be happy about this clear course, which is not nerve-racking and makes concentrating on the essential elements of trading possible.
How Is It Done?
The digital Stochastic is a child of the original indicator. We owe a debt of gratitude to George Lane for his idea to design an indicator which describes the position of the current price within the high-low range of the historical price movement. My contribution to this indicator is the changed pattern which improves the quality of the signal without generating too long delays in giving signals. The trick used to generate this “digital” behavior of the indicator. It can be used with most oscillators like RSI or CCI.
First of all, the original is looked at. The indicator always moves between 0 and 100. The precise position of the indicator or its course relative to the trigger line are of no interest to me, I would just like to know whether the indicator is quoted below or above the value 50. This is tantamount to the question of whether the market is just trading above or below the middle of the high-low range of the past few days. If the market trades in the upper half of its high-low range, then the digital Stochastic is given the value 1; if the original Stochastic is below 50, then the value –1 is given. This leads to a sequence of 1/-1 values – the digital core of the new indicator. These values are subsequently smoothed by means of a short exponential moving average . This way minor false signals are eliminated and the indicator is given its typical form.
Calculation
The calculation is simple
Step1: create the CCI
Step 2: Use CCI as Fast MA and smoothed CCI as Slow MA
Step 3: Multiple the Slow and Fast MAs by their respective input ratios, and then divide by their sum. if the result is greater than 0, then the result is 1, if it's less than 0 then the result is -1, then chart the data
if ((slowr * slow_k + fastr * fast_k) / (fastr + slowr) > 50.0)
temp := 1
if ((slowr * slow_k + fastr * fast_k) / (fastr + slowr) < 50.0)
temp := -1
Step 4: Profit

█ Giga Kaleidoscope Modularized Trading System
What is Loxx's "Giga Kaleidoscope Modularized Trading System"?
The Giga Kaleidoscope Modularized Trading System is a trading system built on the philosophy of the NNFX (No Nonsense Forex) algorithmic trading.
What is the NNFX algorithmic trading strategy?
The NNFX (No-Nonsense Forex) trading system is a comprehensive approach to Forex trading that is designed to simplify the process and remove the confusion and complexity that often surrounds trading. The system was developed by a Forex trader who goes by the pseudonym "VP" and has gained a significant following in the Forex community.
The NNFX trading system is based on a set of rules and guidelines that help traders make objective and informed decisions. These rules cover all aspects of trading, including market analysis, trade entry, stop loss placement, and trade management.
Here are the main components of the NNFX trading system:
1. Trading Philosophy: The NNFX trading system is based on the idea that successful trading requires a comprehensive understanding of the market, objective analysis, and strict risk management. The system aims to remove subjective elements from trading and focuses on objective rules and guidelines.
2. Technical Analysis: The NNFX trading system relies heavily on technical analysis and uses a range of indicators to identify high-probability trading opportunities. The system uses a combination of trend-following and mean-reverting strategies to identify trades.
3. Market Structure: The NNFX trading system emphasizes the importance of understanding the market structure, including price action, support and resistance levels, and market cycles. The system uses a range of tools to identify the market structure, including trend lines, channels, and moving averages.
4. Trade Entry: The NNFX trading system has strict rules for trade entry. The system uses a combination of technical indicators to identify high-probability trades, and traders must meet specific criteria to enter a trade.
5. Stop Loss Placement: The NNFX trading system places a significant emphasis on risk management and requires traders to place a stop loss order on every trade. The system uses a combination of technical analysis and market structure to determine the appropriate stop loss level.
6. Trade Management: The NNFX trading system has specific rules for managing open trades. The system aims to minimize risk and maximize profit by using a combination of trailing stops, take profit levels, and position sizing.
Overall, the NNFX trading system is designed to be a straightforward and easy-to-follow approach to Forex trading that can be applied by traders of all skill levels.
Core components of an NNFX algorithmic trading strategy
The NNFX algorithm is built on the principles of trend, momentum, and volatility. There are six core components in the NNFX trading algorithm:
1. Volatility - price volatility; e.g., Average True Range, True Range Double, Close-to-Close, etc.
2. Baseline - a moving average to identify price trend
3. Confirmation 1 - a technical indicator used to identify trends
4. Confirmation 2 - a technical indicator used to identify trends
5. Continuation - a technical indicator used to identify trends
6. Volatility/Volume - a technical indicator used to identify volatility/volume breakouts/breakdown
7. Exit - a technical indicator used to determine when a trend is exhausted
What is Volatility in the NNFX trading system?
In the NNFX (No Nonsense Forex) trading system, ATR (Average True Range) is typically used to measure the volatility of an asset. It is used as a part of the system to help determine the appropriate stop loss and take profit levels for a trade. ATR is calculated by taking the average of the true range values over a specified period.
True range is calculated as the maximum of the following values:
-Current high minus the current low
-Absolute value of the current high minus the previous close
-Absolute value of the current low minus the previous close
ATR is a dynamic indicator that changes with changes in volatility. As volatility increases, the value of ATR increases, and as volatility decreases, the value of ATR decreases. By using ATR in NNFX system, traders can adjust their stop loss and take profit levels according to the volatility of the asset being traded. This helps to ensure that the trade is given enough room to move, while also minimizing potential losses.
Other types of volatility include True Range Double (TRD), Close-to-Close, and Garman-Klass
What is a Baseline indicator?
The baseline is essentially a moving average, and is used to determine the overall direction of the market.
The baseline in the NNFX system is used to filter out trades that are not in line with the long-term trend of the market. The baseline is plotted on the chart along with other indicators, such as the Moving Average (MA), the Relative Strength Index (RSI), and the Average True Range (ATR).
Trades are only taken when the price is in the same direction as the baseline. For example, if the baseline is sloping upwards, only long trades are taken, and if the baseline is sloping downwards, only short trades are taken. This approach helps to ensure that trades are in line with the overall trend of the market, and reduces the risk of entering trades that are likely to fail.
By using a baseline in the NNFX system, traders can have a clear reference point for determining the overall trend of the market, and can make more informed trading decisions. The baseline helps to filter out noise and false signals, and ensures that trades are taken in the direction of the long-term trend.
What is a Confirmation indicator?
Confirmation indicators are technical indicators that are used to confirm the signals generated by primary indicators. Primary indicators are the core indicators used in the NNFX system, such as the Average True Range (ATR), the Moving Average (MA), and the Relative Strength Index (RSI).
The purpose of the confirmation indicators is to reduce false signals and improve the accuracy of the trading system. They are designed to confirm the signals generated by the primary indicators by providing additional information about the strength and direction of the trend.
Some examples of confirmation indicators that may be used in the NNFX system include the Bollinger Bands, the MACD (Moving Average Convergence Divergence), and the Stochastic Oscillator. These indicators can provide information about the volatility, momentum, and trend strength of the market, and can be used to confirm the signals generated by the primary indicators.
In the NNFX system, confirmation indicators are used in combination with primary indicators and other filters to create a trading system that is robust and reliable. By using multiple indicators to confirm trading signals, the system aims to reduce the risk of false signals and improve the overall profitability of the trades.
What is a Continuation indicator?
In the NNFX (No Nonsense Forex) trading system, a continuation indicator is a technical indicator that is used to confirm a current trend and predict that the trend is likely to continue in the same direction. A continuation indicator is typically used in conjunction with other indicators in the system, such as a baseline indicator, to provide a comprehensive trading strategy.
What is a Volatility/Volume indicator?
Volume indicators, such as the On Balance Volume (OBV), the Chaikin Money Flow (CMF), or the Volume Price Trend (VPT), are used to measure the amount of buying and selling activity in a market. They are based on the trading volume of the market, and can provide information about the strength of the trend. In the NNFX system, volume indicators are used to confirm trading signals generated by the Moving Average and the Relative Strength Index. Volatility indicators include Average Direction Index, Waddah Attar, and Volatility Ratio. In the NNFX trading system, volatility is a proxy for volume and vice versa.
By using volume indicators as confirmation tools, the NNFX trading system aims to reduce the risk of false signals and improve the overall profitability of trades. These indicators can provide additional information about the market that is not captured by the primary indicators, and can help traders to make more informed trading decisions. In addition, volume indicators can be used to identify potential changes in market trends and to confirm the strength of price movements.
What is an Exit indicator?
The exit indicator is used in conjunction with other indicators in the system, such as the Moving Average (MA), the Relative Strength Index (RSI), and the Average True Range (ATR), to provide a comprehensive trading strategy.
The exit indicator in the NNFX system can be any technical indicator that is deemed effective at identifying optimal exit points. Examples of exit indicators that are commonly used include the Parabolic SAR, the Average Directional Index (ADX), and the Chandelier Exit.

High and Low Fibonacci Pivot PointsThis is a standard fibonacci retracement level indicator and free to use for all. I couldn't find any decent retracement levels that works for me (and definitely wasted money on paid script access that didn't work so well for my trading style), so I created this for my own use and now sharing it with the TradingView community. Fibonacci retracement levels help traders predict key areas where a stock/security may find support or resistance. The common ratios are available, such as 23.6, 38.2, 61.8 and so forth. You can choose from Day, Week or Month for your fibonacci retracement lines. In order to keep in sync with my particular style of keeping charts nice and clean, I've created this indicator with defaults to use friendly color schemes. You can of course, choose another color, etc... that fits your own taste. All of my published scripts utilize TradingView's version 5 scripting.
Main Features:
- Show or hide pre-market high and lows (the pre-market high & lows are hidden by default)
- Show or hide the 1-hour 20 EMA line (hidden by default, as this is more uncommon than the 1-hour 50 EMA line for potential support or resistance)
- Show or hide the 1-hour 50 EMA line
- Show or hide the fibonacci retracement lines (the 50% line is hidden by default)
- Option to allow the fibonacci retracement lines to start out the first few minutes of market open to use the pre-market high & low. Once the stock/security price breaks either the pre-market high or pre-market low, it reverts to using the day's high and low. This only works on chart timeframes under the daily time frame.
FYI:
All customizable settings have a help/info window. Please refer to the help/info window, if you're unsure of what a setting does what. Also, note that I wrote and published this script after market close, so I haven't had the chance to check/test if everything works, which can only be fully verified during market open hours (for non-crypto securities).

MM RemixThe MM Remix is comprised of the QQE indictor is calculated as follows: The Fast Trailing Level (TL) and Slow TL are found by calculating the ATR of the smoothed RSI over n-periods. The ATR is then further smoothed using the additional n-periods Wilders smoothing function. This smoothed ATR of RSI is then multiplied by the Fast and Slow ATR Multipliers to calculate the final Fast and Slow Trailing Levels.
A RSI crossover of the fast or slow ATR trailing lines. When the RSI crosses above the fast or slow ATR trailing lines it signals a buy setup. Conversely, when the RSI crosses below the fast or slow ATR trailing lines it signals a short setup.
RSI cross of the 50 level. When the RSI cross above the 50 level, it signals a buy setup. Conversely, when the RSI cross below the 50 level, it signals a short setup.
Fast / slow ATR trailing line crossover. When the fast ATR trailing line cross above the slow ATR trailing line, it signals a long setup. Conversely, when the fast ATR trailing line cross below the slow ATR trailing line, it signals a short setup.
Divergences between the price action and the QQE indicator. There are two types of divergence setups: Regular and hidden. Hidden divergences may signal trend continuation whereas regular divergences can indicate trend reversals.
Regular bullish divergence is when price action is setting new lows and the QQE indicator has higher lows. Regular bearish divergence is when price action is setting new highs and the QQE indicator has lower highs.
Hidden bullish divergence when price action is setting higher lows and the QQE indicator has lower lows. Hidden bullish divergence when price action is setting lower and the QQE indicator has higher highs.
Overbought / oversold. Overbought when the QQE indicator is above the 70 level. Oversold when the QQE is below the 30 level. If any of the QQE components have been moving below the 30 level and cross above, a signals a long setup. Conversely, if any of the QQE indicator components have been moving above the 70 level and then cross below, it signals a short setup.
Also The Aroon indicator is a technical indicator that is used to identify trend changes in the price of an asset, as well as the strength of that trend. In essence, the indicator measures the time between highs and the time between lows over a time period. The idea is that strong uptrends will regularly see new highs, and strong downtrends will regularly see new lows. The indicator signals when this is happening, and when it isn't.
The indicator consists of the "Aroon up" line, which measures the strength of the uptrend, and the "Aroon down" line, which measures the strength of the downtrend.
KEY TAKEAWAYS
The Arron indicator is composed of two lines. An up line which measures the number of periods since a High, and a down line which measures the number of periods since a Low.
The indicator is typically applied to 25 periods of data, so the indicator is showing how many periods it has been since a 25-period high or low.
When the Aroon Up is above the Aroon Down, it indicates bullish price behavior.
When the Aroon Down is above the Aroon Up, it signals bearish price behavior.
Crossovers of the two lines can signal trend changes. For example, when Aroon Up crosses above Aroon Down it may mean a new uptrend is starting.
The indicator moves between zero and 100. A reading above 50 means that a high/low (whichever line is above 50) was seen within the last 12 periods.
A reading below 50 means that the high/low was seen within the 13 periods.
Both have Buy/Sell alarms
