Zweig Market Breadth Thrust Indicator StrategyThe Breadth Thrust Indicator is a technical indicator which determines market momentum, signaling the start of a potential new bull market.
The Breadth Thrust Indicator was developed by Martin Zweig, an American stock investor, financial analyst, and investment adviser. According to Zweig, the concept is based on the principle that the sudden change of money in the investment markets elevates stocks and signals increased liquidity. In other words, this indicator is all about how quickly the NYSE's advancing and declining numbers go from poor to great in a compressed time period.
A "Thrust" indicates that the stock market has rapidly changed from an oversold condition to one of strength, but has not yet become overbought. This is very rare and has happened only a few times. Dr . Zweig also points out that most bull markets begin with a Breadth Thrust.

I have inspired by indicator introduced in TradingView by LazyBear and adopted the logic from there. Thanks LazyBear !!!
Though indicator signals the new Bull market, but I have not found much information how to use it in daily market. So I had come up with a strategy, which would allow us to trade SPY, QQQ , AMEX and securities under these markets.
I have used MA setting as 65 (since Zweig indicator setting was 10 days , based on that I set 65 for Hourly chart ... 10d x 6.5 Hrs = 65 in my startegy). You have to change this setting if you change the timeframe. Also , note that this strategy is for Stock Market only.
Strategy Rule/Settings
===================
Select the market type based on your security symbol.
SPY => use NYSE
QQQ => use NASDAQ
any other security => check exchange it was listed and select the corresponding market.
if you dont know , use COMBINED option
BUY
====
when indicator cross 0.40 from below
Note:
1. see how well it picks the bottoms ... example : Nov 2020 ....
2. setting 0.45 is also produces good results , only thing is you get more signals.
EXIT
=====
Exit when indicator cross down from 0.60 . I have used RSI (5) for partial exits. These two are available in settings
Close the whole position when indicator crossing down 0.40
STOP LOSS
=========
defaulted to 5%
Please Note , I have tested SPY , QQQ on Horly chart with MA 65. You need to chnage the MA setting based on your time frame and check the results.

Simple Momentum Strategy Based on SMA, EMA and VolumeA simple, non short selling (long positions only, i.e. buy low and sell high) strategy. Strategy makes use of simple SMA, EMA and Volume indicators to attempt to enter the market at the most optimum time (i.e. when momentum and price are moving upwards). Optimum time is defined mainly by picking best timing for price moves higher based on upwards momentum.
This script is targeted / meant for an average/typical trader or investor. This is why a non short selling approach was selected for optimisation for this strategy because "typpical", "average" traders and investors usually use basic (i.e. minimum fees / free membership) exchanges that would not usually offer short selling functionality (at least without additional fees). The assumption used here is that only advanced and sophisticated traders and investors would pay for advanced trading platforms that enable short selling, have a risk appetite for short selling and thus use short selling as a strategy.
The results of the strategy are:
In an overall roughly bearish market (backward testing from beginning to end of 2018) i.e. the market immediately following the highs of around 20k USD per BTC, this strategy made a loss of £3231 USD on trades of a maximum of 1 BTC per long position.
But in an overall bullish market, it makes a profit of about $6800 USD from beginning of 2019 onwards by trading a maximum of 1 BTC per long position.
NOTE: All trading involves high risk. Most strategies use past performance and behaviour as indicators of future performance and that is not necessarily indicative of future results. Hypothetical or simulated performance results have certain inherent limitations too. One limitation is that unlike an actual performance record, simulated results do not represent actual trading and since the trades have not actually been executed, the results of those trades themselves do not have any influence on actual market results, which in real life they would have had (no matter how minor). Additionally, simulated results may have under or over-compensated for the impact, if any, of certain market factors, such as lack of liquidity. Simulated trading programs in general are also, by their nature, designed with the benefit of hindsight. No representation is being made that any account will or is likely to achieve profits or losses similar to those shown.
Armando Bitmex Liquidation LevelsHi Guys!
- This script show you liquidations levels with leverage of 100X, 50X, 25X & 10X (shorts & longs).
- This indicator "only" works for XBT on Bitmex.
- Other indicators only show the liquidations up to 25X.
- You need to set the time frame according to your graph. e.g. 1, 60, 240, D, 3D, W, etc.
- The idea of this indicator is to help the user to determine those levels where Bitmex hunt liquidity.
Best Regards.

EMA Slope + EMA Cross Strategy (by ChartArt)This strategy uses divergences between three exponential moving averages and their slope directions as well as crosses between the price and these moving averages to switch between a long or short position. The strategy is non-stop in the market and always either long or short.
In addition the moving averages and price bars are colored depending if they are trending up or down.
The strategy was created for the "EURUSD" daily timeframe.

Bollinger + RSI, Double Strategy Long-Only (by ChartArt) v1.2This strategy uses the RSI indicator together with the Bollinger Bands to go long when the price is below the lower Bollinger Band (and to close the long trade when this value is above the upper Bollinger band).
This simple strategy only places a long, when both the RSI and the Bollinger Bands indicators are at the same time in a oversold condition.
In this new version 1.2 the strategy was simplified even more than before by going long-only, which made the strategy more successful in backtesting than the previous version (that older version also opened short trades).
This strategy does not repaint and was updated to PineScript version 3.

Pairs Volume FXCM mini accountScript shows the volume of the currency pairs in the FXCM mini account. I set it daily or weekly to see which pair is picking up in activity. My style of currency trading is short holds on the highest volatility. This helps me determine which pairs have the highest volume (or tick activity since there is no true exchange for currency). I use this in conjunction with the other script I wrote, "Pairs Range" which shows which pairs have the highest daily range. This script has a built in 5-sma on each pair. High daily range and high volume is volatility and liquidity. **** This does not include currencies in CHF ****
Golden Cross, SMA 200 Moving Average Strategy (by ChartArt)This famous moving average strategy is very easy to follow to decide when to buy (go long) and when to take profit.
The strategy goes long when the faster SMA 50 (the simple moving average of the last 50 bars) crosses above the slower SMA 200. Orders are closed when the SMA 50 crosses below the SMA 200. This simple strategy does not have any other stop loss or take profit money management logic. The strategy does not short and goes long only!
Here is an article explaining the "golden cross" strategy in more detail:
www.stockopedia.com
On the S&P 500 index (symbol "SPX") this strategy worked on the daily chart 81% since price data is available since 1982. And on the DOW Jones Industrial Average (symbol "DOWI") this strategy worked on the daily chart 55% since price data is available since 1916. The low number of trades is in both cases not statistically significant though.

Fractal Breakout Strategy (by ChartArt)This long only strategy determines the price of the last fractal top and enters a trade when the price breaks above the last fractal top. The strategy also calculates the average price of the last fractal tops to get the trend direction. The strategy exits the long trade, when the average of the fractal tops is falling (when the trend is lower highs as measured by fractals). And the user can manually set a time delay of this exit condition. The default setting is a long strategy exit always 3 bars after the long entry condition appeared.
In addition as gimmicks the fractals tops can be highlighted (the default is blue) and a line can be drawn based on the fractal tops.This fractal top line is colored by the fractal top average trend in combination with the fractal breakout condition.
This strategy works better on higher time-frames (weekly and monthly), but it also works on the daily and some other time-frames. This strategy does not repaint, no repainting.
P.S. I thank Tradingview user barracuda who helped me with the time based exit condition code. And user RicardoSantos for coding the definition of the fractal top, which he uses in his " Fractals" scripts.

Daily Close Comparison Strategy (by ChartArt via sirolf2009)Comparing daily close prices as a strategy.
This strategy is equal to the very popular "ANN Strategy" coded by sirolf2009(1) which calculates the percentage difference of the daily close price, but this bar-bone version works completely without his Artificial Neural Network (ANN) part.
Main difference besides stripping out the ANN is that my version uses close prices instead of OHLC4 prices, because they perform better in backtesting. And the default threshold is set to 0 to keep it simple instead of 0.0014 with a larger step value of 0.001 instead of 0.0001. Just like the ANN strategy this strategy goes long if the close of the current day is larger than the close price of the last day. If the inverse logic is true, the strategy goes short (last close larger current close). (2)
This basic strategy does not have any stop loss or take profit money management logic. And I repeat, the credit for the fundamental code idea goes to sirolf2009.
(2) Because the multi-time-frame close of the current day is future data, meaning not available in live-trading (also described as repainting), is the reason why this strategy and the original "ANN Strategy" coded by sirolf2009 perform so excellent in backtesting.

MACD + Stochastic, Double Strategy (by ChartArt)This strategy combines the classic stochastic strategy to buy when the stochastic is oversold with a classic MACD strategy to buy when the MACD histogram value goes above the zero line. Only difference to the classic stochastic is a default setting of 71 for overbought (classic setting 80) and 29 for oversold (classic setting 20).
Therefore this strategy goes long if the MACD histogram goes above zero and the stochastic indicator detects a oversold condition (value below 29). If the inverse logic is true, the strategy goes short (stochastic overbought condition with a value above 71 and the MACD histogram falling below the zero line value).
Please be aware that this pure double strategy using simply two classic indicators does not have any stop loss or take profit money management logic.

Bollinger + RSI, Double Strategy (by ChartArt) v1.1This strategy uses the RSI indicator together with the Bollinger Bands to sell when the price is above the upper Bollinger Band (and to buy when this value is below the lower band). This simple strategy only triggers when both the RSI and the Bollinger Band indicators are at the same time in a overbought or oversold condition.
UPDATE
In this updated version 1.1 the strategy was both simplified for the user (less inputs) and made more successful in backtesting by now using a 200 period for the SMA which is the basis for the Bollinger Band. I also reduced the number of color alerts to show fewer, but more relevant trading opportunities.
And just like the first version this strategy does not use close prices from higher-time frame and should not repaint after the current candle has closed. It might repaint like every Tradingview indicator while the current candle hasn't closed.

Bollinger + RSI, Double Strategy (by ChartArt)Bollinger Bands + RSI, Double Strategy
This strategy uses a slower RSI with period 16 to sell when the RSI increases over the value of 55 (or to buy when the value falls below 45), with the classic Bollinger Bands strategy to sell when the price is above the upper Bollinger Band and falls below it (and to buy when the price is below the lower band and rises above it). This strategy only triggers when both the RSI and the Bollinger Bands indicators are at the same time in the described overbought or oversold condition. In addition there are color alerts which can be deactivated.
This basic strategy is based upon the "RSI Strategy" and "Bollinger Bands Strategy" which were created by Tradingview and uses no money management like a trailing stop loss and no scalping methods. Every win/loss trade is simply counted from the last overbought/oversold condition to the next one.
This strategy does not use close prices from higher-time frame and should not repaint after the current candle has closed. It might repaint like every Tradingview indicator while the current candle hasn't closed.

Moving Average Consecutive Up/Down Strategy (by ChartArt)This simple strategy goes long (or short) if there are several consecutive increasing (or decreasing) moving average values in a row in the same direction. The bars can be colored using the raw moving average trend. And the background can be colored using the consecutive moving average trend setting. In addition a experimental line of the moving average change can be drawn.

MACD + SMA 200 Strategy (by ChartArt)Here is a combination of the classic MACD (moving average convergence divergence indicator) with the classic slow moving average SMA with period 200 together as a strategy.
This strategy goes long if the MACD histogram and the MACD momentum are both above zero and the fast MACD moving average is above the slow MACD moving average. As additional long filter the recent price has to be above the SMA 200. If the inverse logic is true, the strategy goes short. For the worst case there is a max intraday equity loss of 50% filter.

Artharjan High Volume Zones v2Artharjan High Volume Zones (AHVZ)
The Artharjan High Volume Zones (AHVZ) indicator is designed to identify, highlight, and track price zones formed during exceptionally high-volume bars. These levels often act as critical support and resistance zones, revealing where institutions or large players have shown significant interest.
By combining both short-term (ST) and long-term (LT) high-volume zones, the tool enables traders to align intraday activity with broader market structures.
Core Purpose
Markets often leave behind footprints in the form of high-volume bars. The AHVZ indicator captures these footprints and projects their influence forward, allowing traders to spot zones of liquidity, accumulation, or distribution where future price reactions are likely.
Key Features
🔹 Short-Term High Volume Zones (ST-ZoI)
Identifies the highest-volume bar within a short-term lookback period (default: 22 bars).
Draws and maintains:
Upper & Lower Bounds of the high-volume candle.
Midpoint Line (M-P) as the zone’s equilibrium.
Buffer Zones above and below for intraday flexibility (percentage-based).
Highlights these zones visually for quick intraday decision-making.
🔹 Long-Term High Volume Zones (LT-ZoI)
Scans for the highest-volume bar in a long-term lookback period (default: 252 bars).
Similar plotting structure as ST-ZoI: Upper, Lower, Midpoint, and Buffers.
Useful for identifying institutional footprints and multi-week/month accumulation zones.
🔹 Dynamic Buffering
Daily/Weekly/Monthly charts: Adds a fixed percentage buffer above and below high-volume zones.
Intraday charts: Uses price-range based buffers, scaling zones more adaptively to volatility.
🔹 Visual Customization
Independent color settings for ST and LT zones, mid-range lines, and buffers.
Adjustable plot thickness for clarity across different chart styles.
How It Helps
Intraday Traders
Use ST zones to pinpoint short-term supply/demand clusters.
Trade rejections or breakouts near these high-volume footprints.
Swing/Positional Traders
Align entries with LT zones to stay on the side of institutional flows.
Spot areas where price may stall, reverse, or consolidate.
General Market Structure Analysis
Understand where volume-backed conviction exists in the chart.
Avoid trading into hidden walls of liquidity by recognizing prior high-volume zones.
Closing Note
The Artharjan High Volume Zones indicator acts as a volume map of the market, giving traders a deeper sense of where meaningful battles between buyers and sellers took place. By combining short-term noise filtering with long-term structural awareness, it empowers traders to make more informed, disciplined decisions.

Martingale Strategy Simulator [BackQuant]Martingale Strategy Simulator
Purpose
This indicator lets you study how a martingale-style position sizing rule interacts with a simple long or short trading signal. It computes an equity curve from bar-to-bar returns, adapts position size after losing streaks, caps exposure at a user limit, and summarizes risk with portfolio metrics. An optional Monte Carlo module projects possible future equity paths from your realized daily returns.
What a martingale is
A martingale sizing rule increases stake after losses and resets after a win. In its classical form from gambling, you double the bet after each loss so that a single win recovers all prior losses plus one unit of profit. In markets there is no fixed “even-money” payout and returns are multiplicative, so an exact recovery guarantee does not exist. The core idea is unchanged:
Lose one leg → increase next position size
Lose again → increase again
Win → reset to the base size
The expectation of your strategy still depends on the signal’s edge. Sizing does not create positive expectancy on its own. A martingale raises variance and tail risk by concentrating more capital as a losing streak develops.
What it plots
Equity – simulated portfolio equity including compounding
Buy & Hold – equity from holding the chart symbol for context
Optional helpers – last trade outcome, current streak length, current allocation fraction
Optional diagnostics – daily portfolio return, rolling drawdown, metrics table
Optional Monte Carlo probability cone – p5, p16, p50, p84, p95 aggregate bands
Model assumptions
Bar-close execution with no slippage or commissions
Shorting allowed and frictionless
No margin interest, borrow fees, or position limits
No intrabar moves or gaps within a bar (returns are close-to-close)
Sizing applies to equity fraction only and is capped by your setting
All results are hypothetical and for education only.
How the simulator applies it
1) Directional signal
You pick a simple directional rule that produces +1 for long or −1 for short each bar. Options include 100 HMA slope, RSI above or below 50, EMA or SMA crosses, CCI and other oscillators, ATR move, BB basis, and more. The stance is evaluated bar by bar. When the stance flips, the current trade ends and the next one starts.
2) Sizing after losses and wins
Position size is a fraction of equity:
Initial allocation – the starting fraction, for example 0.15 means 15 percent of equity
Increase after loss – multiply the next allocation by your factor after a losing leg, for example 2.00 to double
Reset after win – return to the initial allocation
Max allocation cap – hard ceiling to prevent runaway growth
At a high level the size after k consecutive losses is
alloc(k) = min( cap , base × factor^k ) .
In practice the simulator changes size only when a leg ends and its PnL is known.
3) Equity update
Let r_t = close_t / close_{t-1} − 1 be the symbol’s bar return, d_{t−1} ∈ {+1, −1} the prior bar stance, and a_{t−1} the prior bar allocation fraction. The simulator compounds:
eq_t = eq_{t−1} × (1 + a_{t−1} × d_{t−1} × r_t) .
This is bar-based and avoids intrabar lookahead. Costs, slippage, and borrowing costs are not modeled.
Why traders experiment with martingale sizing
Mean-reversion contexts – if the signal often snaps back after a string of losses, adding size near the tail of a move can pull the average entry closer to the turn
Behavioral or microstructure edges – some rules have modest edge but frequent small whipsaws; size escalation may shorten time-to-recovery when the edge manifests
Exploration and stress testing – studying the relationship between streaks, caps, and drawdowns is instructive even if you do not deploy martingale sizing live
Why martingale is dangerous
Martingale concentrates capital when the strategy is performing worst. The main risks are structural, not cosmetic:
Loss streaks are inevitable – even with a 55 percent win rate you should expect multi-loss runs. The probability of at least one k-loss streak in N trades rises quickly with N.
Size explodes geometrically – with factor 2.0 and base 10 percent, the sequence is 10, 20, 40, 80, 100 (capped) after five losses. Without a strict cap, required size becomes infeasible.
No fixed payout – in gambling, one win at even odds resets PnL. In markets, there is no guaranteed bounce nor fixed profit multiple. Trends can extend and gaps can skip levels.
Correlation of losses – losses cluster in trends and in volatility bursts. A martingale tends to be largest just when volatility is highest.
Margin and liquidity constraints – leverage limits, margin calls, position limits, and widening spreads can force liquidation before a mean reversion occurs.
Fat tails and regime shifts – assumptions of independent, Gaussian returns can understate tail risk. Structural breaks can keep the signal wrong for much longer than expected.
The simulator exposes these dynamics in the equity curve, Max Drawdown, VaR and CVaR, and via Monte Carlo sketches of forward uncertainty.
Interpreting losing streaks with numbers
A rough intuition: if your per-trade win probability is p and loss probability is q=1−p , the chance of a specific run of k consecutive losses is q^k . Over many trades, the chance that at least one k-loss run occurs grows with the number of opportunities. As a sanity check:
If p=0.55 , then q=0.45 . A 6-loss run has probability q^6 ≈ 0.008 on any six-trade window. Across hundreds of trades, a 6 to 8-loss run is not rare.
If your size factor is 1.5 and your base is 10 percent, after 8 losses the requested size is 10% × 1.5^8 ≈ 25.6% . With factor 2.0 it would try to be 10% × 2^8 = 256% but your cap will stop it. The equity curve will still wear the compounded drawdown from the sequence that led to the cap.
This is why the cap setting is central. It does not remove tail risk, but it prevents the sizing rule from demanding impossible positions
Note: The p and q math is illustrative. In live data the win rate and distribution can drift over time, so real streaks can be longer or shorter than the simple q^k intuition suggests..
Using the simulator productively
Parameter studies
Start with conservative settings. Increase one element at a time and watch how the equity, Max Drawdown, and CVaR respond.
Initial allocation – lower base reduces volatility and drawdowns across the board
Increase factor – set modestly above 1.0 if you want the effect at all; doubling is aggressive
Max cap – the most important brake; many users keep it between 20 and 50 percent
Signal selection
Keep sizing fixed and rotate signals to see how streak patterns differ. Trend-following signals tend to produce long wrong-way streaks in choppy ranges. Mean-reversion signals do the opposite. Martingale sizing interacts very differently with each.
Diagnostics to watch
Use the built-in metrics to quantify risk:
Max Drawdown – worst peak-to-trough equity loss
Sharpe and Sortino – volatility and downside-adjusted return
VaR 95 percent and CVaR – tail risk measures from the realized distribution
Alpha and Beta – relationship to your chosen benchmark
If you would like to check out the original performance metrics script with multiple assets with a better explanation on all metrics please see
Monte Carlo exploration
When enabled, the forecast draws many synthetic paths from your realized daily returns:
Choose a horizon and a number of runs
Review the bands: p5 to p95 for a wide risk envelope; p16 to p84 for a narrower range; p50 as the median path
Use the table to read the expected return over the horizon and the tail outcomes
Remember it is a sketch based on your recent distribution, not a predictor
Concrete examples
Example A: Modest martingale
Base 10 percent, factor 1.25, cap 40 percent, RSI>50 signal. You will see small escalations on 2 to 4 loss runs and frequent resets. The equity curve usually remains smooth unless the signal enters a prolonged wrong-way regime. Max DD may rise moderately versus fixed sizing.
Example B: Aggressive martingale
Base 15 percent, factor 2.0, cap 60 percent, EMA cross signal. The curve can look stellar during favorable regimes, then a single extended streak pushes allocation to the cap, and a few more losses drive deep drawdown. CVaR and Max DD jump sharply. This is a textbook case of high tail risk.
Strengths
Bar-by-bar, transparent computation of equity from stance and size
Explicit handling of wins, losses, streaks, and caps
Portable signal inputs so you can A–B test ideas quickly
Risk diagnostics and forward uncertainty visualization in one place
Example, Rolling Max Drawdown
Limitations and important notes
Martingale sizing can escalate drawdowns rapidly. The cap limits position size but not the possibility of extended adverse runs.
No commissions, slippage, margin interest, borrow costs, or liquidity limits are modeled.
Signals are evaluated on closes. Real execution and fills will differ.
Monte Carlo assumes independent draws from your recent return distribution. Markets often have serial correlation, fat tails, and regime changes.
All results are hypothetical. Use this as an educational tool, not a production risk engine.
Practical tips
Prefer gentle factors such as 1.1 to 1.3. Doubling is usually excessive outside of toy examples.
Keep a strict cap. Many users cap between 20 and 40 percent of equity per leg.
Stress test with different start dates and subperiods. Long flat or trending regimes are where martingale weaknesses appear.
Compare to an anti-martingale (increase after wins, cut after losses) to understand the other side of the trade-off.
If you deploy sizing live, add external guardrails such as a daily loss cut, volatility filters, and a global max drawdown stop.

Final thoughts
A martingale is not a free lunch. It is a way to tilt capital allocation toward losing streaks. If the signal has a real edge and mean reversion is common, careful and capped escalation can reduce time-to-recovery. If the signal lacks edge or regimes shift, the same rule can magnify losses at the worst possible moment. This simulator makes those trade-offs visible so you can calibrate parameters, understand tail risk, and decide whether the approach belongs anywhere in your research workflow.

Advanced Range Analyzer ProAdvanced Range Analyzer Pro – Adaptive Range Detection & Breakout Forecasting
Overview
Advanced Range Analyzer Pro is a comprehensive trading tool designed to help traders identify consolidations, evaluate their strength, and forecast potential breakout direction. By combining volatility-adjusted thresholds, volume distribution analysis, and historical breakout behavior, the indicator builds an adaptive framework for navigating sideways price action. Instead of treating ranges as noise, this system transforms them into opportunities for mean reversion or breakout trading.
How It Works
The indicator continuously scans price action to identify active range environments. Ranges are defined by volatility compression, repeated boundary interactions, and clustering of volume near equilibrium. Once detected, the indicator assigns a strength score (0–100), which quantifies how well-defined and compressed the consolidation is.
Breakout probabilities are then calculated by factoring in:
Relative time spent near the upper vs. lower range boundaries
Historical breakout tendencies for similar structures
Volume distribution inside the range
Momentum alignment using auxiliary filters (RSI/MACD)
This creates a live probability forecast that updates as price evolves. The tool also supports range memory, allowing traders to analyze the last completed range after a breakout has occurred. A dynamic strength meter is displayed directly above each consolidation range, providing real-time insight into range compression and breakout potential.
Signals and Breakouts
Advanced Range Analyzer Pro includes a structured set of visual tools to highlight actionable conditions:
Range Zones – Gradient-filled boxes highlight active consolidations.
Strength Meter – A live score displayed in the dashboard quantifies compression.
Breakout Labels – Probability percentages show bias toward bullish or bearish continuation.
Breakout Highlights – When a breakout occurs, the range is marked with directional confirmation.
Dashboard Table – Displays current status, strength, live/last range mode, and probabilities.
These elements update in real time, ensuring that traders always see the current state of consolidation and breakout risk.
Interpretation
Range Strength : High scores (70–100) indicate strong consolidations likely to resolve explosively, while low scores suggest weak or choppy ranges prone to false signals.
Breakout Probability : Directional bias greater than 60% suggests meaningful breakout pressure. Equal probabilities indicate balanced compression, favoring mean-reversion strategies.
Market Context : Ranges aligned with higher timeframe trends often resolve in the dominant direction, while counter-trend ranges may lead to reversals or liquidity sweeps.
Volatility Insight : Tight ranges with low ATR imply imminent expansion; wide ranges signal extended consolidation or distribution phases.
Strategy Integration
Advanced Range Analyzer Pro can be applied across multiple trading styles:
Breakout Trading : Enter on probability shifts above 60% with confirmation of volume or momentum.
Mean Reversion : Trade inside ranges with high strength scores by fading boundaries and targeting equilibrium.
Trend Continuation : Focus on ranges that form mid-trend, anticipating continuation after consolidation.
Liquidity Sweeps : Use failed breakouts at boundaries to capture reversals.
Multi-Timeframe : Apply on higher timeframes to frame market context, then execute on lower timeframes.

VWAP Confluência 3x VWAP Confluence 3x — Daily · Weekly · Anchored
Purpose
A pragmatic VWAP suite for execution and risk management. It plots three institutional reference lines: Daily VWAP, Weekly VWAP, and an Anchored VWAP (AVWAP) starting from a user-defined event (news, earnings, session open, swing high/low).
Why it matters
VWAP is the market’s “fair price” weighted by where volume actually traded. Confluence across timeframes and events turns noisy charts into actionable bias and clean levels.
What it does
Daily VWAP — resets each trading day; intraday “fair value.”
Weekly VWAP — resets each week; swing context and larger player defense.
Anchored VWAP — starts at a precise timestamp you set (e.g., news release).
Price source toggle — Typical Price

Show Weekly VWAP (on/off)
Show Anchored VWAP (on/off)
Price Source: Typical (H+L+C)/3 or Close
Anchor Time: timestamp of your event (uses the chart/exchange timezone)
How to anchor to a news event
Find the exact release time as shown in your chart’s timezone.
Open the indicator settings → set Anchor Time to that minute.
The AVWAP begins at that bar and accumulates forward.
Playbook (examples, not signals)
Strong long bias: price above Daily and Weekly VWAP; AVWAP reclaimed after news.
Strong short bias: price below Daily and Weekly; AVWAP reject after news.
Mean-revert zones: price stretches far from the active VWAPs and snaps back; size around VWAP with tight risk.
Targets: opposite VWAP, prior day/week highs/lows, or liquidity pools near AVWAP.
Best used with
Session highs/lows, liquidity sweeps, volume profile, and time-of-day filters.
Notes & limitations
Works best on markets with reliable volume (equities, futures, liquid crypto). FX spot uses synthetic volume—interpret accordingly.
Anchor Time respects the chart’s timezone. Convert news times before setting.

LogPressure Envelope [BOSWaves]LogPressure Envelope – Adaptive Volatility & Trend Visualizer
Overview
LogPressure Envelope is a specialized trading tool designed to normalize market behavior using logarithmic price scaling while providing an adaptive framework for volatility and trend detection. The indicator calculates a log-based moving average midline, surrounds it with asymmetric volatility envelopes, and replaces the conventional cloud with progressive fan lines to present price action in a more interpretable form.
By integrating rate-of-change midline coloring, fading trend strength, and structured buy/sell markers, LogPressure Envelope simplifies the reading of complex market dynamics. Its design makes it suitable for multiple trading approaches, including scalping, intraday, and swing trading, where volatility behavior and trend shifts must be understood quickly and objectively.
Unlike static envelope indicators, LogPressure Envelope adapts continuously to price scale and volatility conditions. It evaluates log-transformed prices, applies configurable moving average methods (EMA, SMA, WMA), and derives asymmetric standard-deviation bands for both upside and downside moves. These envelopes are projected as fan lines with adjustable opacity, producing a layered volatility map that evolves with the market.
This system ensures each visual element—midline shading, candle coloring, fan structure, and signal markers—reflects real-time market conditions, allowing traders to interpret volatility expansion, contraction, and directional bias with clarity.
How It Works
The foundation of LogPressure Envelope is the logarithmic transformation of price. By operating in log space, the indicator removes distortions caused by large nominal price differences across assets, enabling consistent analysis of both low-priced and high-priced instruments.
A moving average of log prices is calculated (EMA, SMA, or WMA depending on user input) and then re-converted to normal price scale, forming the log midline. Standard deviation of log prices is then measured over a separate period, with independent multipliers for upside and downside deviations. This asymmetry captures the fact that markets often expand differently in bullish versus bearish phases.
Instead of plotting a filled cloud, the envelope is expressed as ten equidistant fan lines stretching from the lower to upper boundary. Each line is shaded progressively to visualize volatility clustering and directional strength without overloading the chart.
Trend determination is smoothed using a fade mechanism: shifts in bias do not flip instantly but gradually move toward the new state, producing fewer false transitions. Buy and sell markers are generated when trend strength crosses confirmation thresholds, ensuring signals are event-driven and contextually meaningful.
Signals and Visuals
LogPressure Envelope provides multiple layers of structured signals:
Midline Bias – Central moving average colored by rate-of-change, reflecting directional acceleration or deceleration.
Volatility Fan – Ten progressive lines forming a gradient between lower and upper bands, visually encoding volatility spread.
Buy Signals – Labels below bars when upward trend strength is confirmed.
Sell Signals – Labels above bars when downward trend strength is confirmed.
Candle Coloring – Optional shading of candles based on trend alignment with the log midline, highlighting bullish, bearish, or neutral conditions.
These signals remain clear even during high-volatility phases, with visual hierarchy maintained through progressive opacity control.
Interpretation
Trend Analysis : Midline direction and candle coloring provide continuous feedback on prevailing bias. Upward-sloping midlines with blue shading indicate bullish phases, while downward slopes with orange shading confirm bearish conditions.
Volatility and Risk Assessment : Expansion of fan lines indicates rising volatility and potential breakout conditions; contraction indicates consolidation and possible mean reversion.
Signal Confirmation : Buy and sell markers validate transitions when trend strength thresholds are crossed, aligning with volatility envelope dynamics.
Market Context : Asymmetric envelopes allow traders to see where bearish acceleration differs from bullish expansion, improving interpretation of liquidity conditions and institutional pressure.
Strategy Integration
LogPressure Envelope can be applied across trading styles:
Trend Following : Enter trades in the direction of midline bias, confirmed by buy or sell markers.
Pullback Entries : Use midline retests during trending conditions as lower-risk continuation points.
Volatility Breakouts : Identify sharp expansions in fan line spacing as early signals of directional moves.
Reversal Strategies : Fade extreme envelope touches when momentum shows exhaustion and fan contraction begins.
Multi-Timeframe Confirmation : Align signals from higher and lower timeframes to reduce noise and validate trade setups.
Stop-loss levels can be set near the opposite envelope boundary, while targets may be managed through progressive volatility zones or midline convergence.
Advanced Techniques
For greater precision, LogPressure Envelope can be combined with other analytical tools:
Pair with volume or liquidity measures to validate breakout or reversal conditions.
Use momentum indicators to confirm ROC-based midline bias.
Track sequences of fan line expansions and contractions to anticipate regime shifts in volatility.
Apply across multiple timeframes to monitor how volatility clusters align at different market scales.
Adjusting parameters such as envelope multipliers, moving average type, and fade bars allows the indicator to adapt to diverse asset classes and volatility environments.
Inputs and Customization
Midline Type : Select EMA, SMA, or WMA.
Line Opacity : Control visibility of fan lines.
Enable Candle Coloring : Toggle trend-based bar shading.
MA Length / StdDev Length : Define periods for midline and volatility calculation.
Multipliers : Set asymmetric scaling for upside and downside envelopes.
Fade Bars : Control smoothness of trend strength transitions.
Fan Lines : Adjust number of envelope subdivisions for visualization granularity.
Why Use LogPressure Envelope
LogPressure Envelope translates complex volatility and trend interactions into a structured and adaptive framework. By combining logarithmic normalization, asymmetric standard deviation envelopes, and smoothed trend confirmation, it allows traders to:
Normalize price analysis across assets of different scales.
Visualize volatility expansion and contraction in real time.
Identify and confirm directional shifts with objective signal markers.
Apply a disciplined system for trend, breakout, and reversal strategies.
This indicator is designed for traders who want a systematic, visually clear approach to volatility-based market analysis without relying on static bands or arbitrary scaling.
HorizonSigma Pro [CHE]HorizonSigma Pro
Disclaimer
Not every timeframe will yield good results . Very short charts are dominated by microstructure noise, spreads, and slippage; signals can flip and the tradable edge shrinks after costs. Very high timeframes adapt more slowly, provide fewer samples, and can lag regime shifts. When you change timeframe, you also change the ratios between horizon, lookbacks, and correlation windows—what works on M5 won’t automatically hold on H1 or D1. Liquidity, session effects (overnight gaps, news bursts), and volatility do not scale linearly with time. Always validate per symbol and timeframe, then retune horizon, z-length, correlation window, and either the neutral band or the z-threshold. On fast charts, “components” mode adapts quicker; on slower charts, “super” reduces noise. Keep prior-shift and calibration enabled, monitor Hit Rate with its confidence interval and the Brier score, and execute only on confirmed (closed-bar) values.
For example, what do “UP 61%” and “DOWN 21%” mean?
“UP 61%” is the model’s estimated probability that the close will be higher after your selected horizon—directional probability, not a price target or profit guarantee. “DOWN 21%” still reports the probability of up; here it’s 21%, which implies 79% for down (a short bias). The label switches to “DOWN” because the probability falls below your short threshold. With a neutral-band policy, for example ±7%, signals are: Long above 57%, Short below 43%, Neutral in between. In z-score mode, fixed z-cutoffs drive the call instead of percentages. The arrow length on the chart is an ATR-scaled projection to visualize reach; treat it as guidance, not a promise.
Part 1 — Scientific description
Objective.
The indicator estimates the probability that price will be higher after a user-defined horizon (a chosen number of bars) and emits long, short, or neutral decisions under explicit thresholds. It combines multi‑feature, z‑normalized inputs, adaptive correlation‑based weighting, a prior‑shifted sigmoid mapping, optional rolling probability calibration, and repaint‑safe confirmation. It also visualizes an ATR‑scaled forward projection and prints a compact statistics panel.
Data and labeling.
For each bar, the target label is whether price increased over the past chosen horizon. Learning is deliberately backward‑looking to avoid look‑ahead: features are associated with outcomes that are only known after that horizon has elapsed.
Feature engineering.
The feature set includes momentum, RSI, stochastic %K, MACD histogram slope, a normalized EMA(20/50) trend spread, ATR as a share of price, Bollinger Band width, and volume normalized by its moving average. All features are standardized over rolling windows. A compressed “super‑feature” is available that aggregates core trend and momentum components while penalizing excessive width (volatility). Users can switch between a “components” mode (weighted sum of individual features) and a “super” mode (single compressed driver).
Weighting and learning.
Weights are the rolling correlations between features (evaluated one horizon ago) and realized directional outcomes, smoothed by an EMA and optionally clamped to a bounded range to stabilize outliers. This produces an adaptive, regime‑aware weighting without explicit machine‑learning libraries.
Scoring and probability mapping.
The raw score is either the weighted component sum or the weighted super‑feature. The score is standardized again and passed through a sigmoid whose steepness is user‑controlled. A “prior shift” moves the sigmoid’s midpoint to the current base rate of up moves, estimated over the evaluation window, so that probabilities remain well‑calibrated when markets drift bullish or bearish. Probabilities and standardized scores are EMA‑smoothed for stability.
Decision policy.
Two modes are supported:
- Neutral band: go long if the probability is above one half plus a user‑set band; go short if it is below one half minus that band; otherwise stay neutral.
- Z‑score thresholds: use symmetric positive/negative cutoffs on the standardized score to trigger long/short.
Repaint protection.
All values used for decisions can be locked to confirmed (closed) bars. Intrabar updates are available as a preview, but confirmed values drive evaluation and stats.
Calibration.
An optional rolling linear calibration maps past confirmed probabilities to realized outcomes over the evaluation window. The mapping is clipped to the unit interval and can be injected back into the decision logic if desired. This improves reliability (probabilities that “mean what they say”) without necessarily improving raw separability.
Evaluation metrics.
The table reports: hit rate on signaled bars; a Wilson confidence interval for that hit rate at a chosen confidence level; Brier score as a measure of probability accuracy; counts of long/short trades; average realized return by side; profit factor; net return; and exposure (signal density). All are computed on rolling windows consistent with the learning scheme.
Visualization.
On the chart, an arrowed projection shows the predicted direction from the current bar to the chosen horizon, with magnitude scaled by ATR (optionally scaled by the square‑root of the horizon). Labels display either the decision probability or the standardized score. Neutral states can display a configurable icon for immediate recognition.
Computational properties.
The design relies on rolling means, standard deviations, correlations, and EMAs. Per‑bar cost is constant with respect to history length, and memory is constant per tracked series. Graphical objects are updated in place to obey platform limits.
Assumptions and limitations.
The method is correlation‑based and will adapt after regime changes, not before them. Calibration improves probability reliability but not necessarily ranking power. Intrabar previews are non‑binding and should not be evaluated as historical performance.
Part 2 — Trader‑facing description
What it does.
This tool tells you how likely price is to be higher after your chosen number of bars and converts that into Long / Short / Neutral calls. It learns, in real time, which components—momentum, trend, volatility, breadth, and volume—matter now, adjusts their weights, and shows you a probability line plus a forward arrow scaled by volatility.
How to set it up.
1) Choose your horizon. Intraday scalps: 5–10 bars. Swings: 10–30 bars. The default of 14 bars is a balanced starting point.
2) Pick a feature mode.
- components: granular and fast to adapt when leadership rotates between signals.
- super: cleaner single driver; less noise, slightly slower to react.
3) Decide how signals are triggered.
- Neutral band (probability based): intuitive and easy to tune. Widen the band for fewer, higher‑quality trades; tighten to catch more moves.
- Z‑score thresholds: consistent numeric cutoffs that ignore base‑rate drift.
4) Keep reliability helpers on. Leave prior shift and calibration enabled to stabilize probabilities across bullish/bearish regimes.
5) Smoothing. A short EMA on the probability or score reduces whipsaws while preserving turns.
6) Overlay. The arrow shows the call and a volatility‑scaled reach for the next horizon. Treat it as guidance, not a promise.
Reading the stats table.
- Hit Rate with a confidence interval: your recent accuracy with an uncertainty range; trust the range, not only the point.
- Brier Score: lower is better; it checks whether a stated “70%” really behaves like 70% over time.
- Profit Factor, Net Return, Exposure: quick triage of tradability and signal density.
- Average Return by Side: sanity‑check that the long and short calls each pull their weight.
Typical adjustments.
- Too many trades? Increase the neutral band or raise the z‑threshold.
- Missing the move? Tighten the band, or switch to components mode to react faster.
- Choppy timeframe? Lengthen the z‑score and correlation windows; keep calibration on.
- Volatility regime change? Revisit the ATR multiplier and enable square‑root scaling of horizon.
Execution and risk.
- Size positions by volatility (ATR‑based sizing works well).
- Enter on confirmed values; use intrabar previews only as early signals.
- Combine with your market structure (levels, liquidity zones). This model is statistical, not clairvoyant.
What it is not.
Not a black‑box machine‑learning model. It is transparent, correlation‑weighted technical analysis with strong attention to probability reliability and repaint safety.
Suggested defaults (robust starting point).
- Horizon 14; components mode; weight EMA 10; correlation window 500; z‑length 200.
- Neutral band around seven percentage points, or z‑threshold around one‑third of a standard deviation.
- Prior shift ON, Calibration ON, Use calibrated for decisions OFF to start.
- ATR multiplier 1.0; square‑root horizon scaling ON; EMA smoothing 3.
- Confidence setting equivalent to about 95%.
