Intramarket Difference Index StrategyHi Traders !!
The IDI Strategy:
In layman’s terms this strategy compares two indicators across markets and exploits their differences.
note: it is best the two markets are correlated as then we know we are trading a short to long term deviation from both markets' general trend with the assumption both markets will trend again sometime in the future thereby exhausting our trading opportunity.
📍 Import Notes:
This Strategy calculates trade position size independently (i.e. risk per trade is controlled in the user inputs tab), this means that the ‘Order size’ input in the ‘Properties’ tab will have no effect on the strategy. Why ? because this allows us to define custom position size algorithms which we can use to improve our risk management and equity growth over time. Here we have the option to have fixed quantity or fixed percentage of equity ATR (Average True Range) based stops in addition to the turtle trading position size algorithm.
‘Pyramiding’ does not work for this strategy’, similar to the order size input togeling this input will have no effect on the strategy as the strategy explicitly defines the maximum order size to be 1.
This strategy is not perfect, and as of writing of this post I have not traded this algo.
Always take your time to backtests and debug the strategy.
🔷 The IDI Strategy:
By default this strategy pulls data from your current TV chart and then compares it to the base market, be default BINANCE:BTCUSD . The strategy pulls SMA and RSI data from either market (we call this the difference data), standardizes the data (solving the different unit problem across markets) such that it is comparable and then differentiates the data, calling the result of this transformation and difference the Intramarket Difference (ID). The formula for the the ID is
ID = market1_diff_data - market2_diff_data (1)
Where
market(i)_diff_data = diff_data / ATR(j)_market(i)^0.5,
where i = {1, 2} and j = the natural numbers excluding 0
Formula (1) interpretation is the following
When ID > 0: this means the current market outperforms the base market
When ID = 0: Markets are at long run equilibrium
When ID < 0: this means the current market underperforms the base market
To form the strategy we define one of two strategy type’s which are Trend and Mean Revesion respectively.
🔸 Trend Case:
Given the ‘‘Strategy Type’’ is equal to TREND we define a threshold for which if the ID crosses over we go long and if the ID crosses under the negative of the threshold we go short.
The motivating idea is that the ID is an indicator of the two symbols being out of sync, and given we know volatility clustering, momentum and mean reversion of anomalies to be a stylised fact of financial data we can construct a trading premise. Let's first talk more about this premise.
For some markets (cryptocurrency markets - synthetic symbols in TV) the stylised fact of momentum is true, this means that higher momentum is followed by higher momentum, and given we know momentum to be a vector quantity (with magnitude and direction) this momentum can be both positive and negative i.e. when the ID crosses above some threshold we make an assumption it will continue in that direction for some time before executing back to its long run equilibrium of 0 which is a reasonable assumption to make if the market are correlated. For example for the BTCUSD - ETHUSD pair, if the ID > +threshold (inputs for MA and RSI based ID thresholds are found under the ‘‘INTRAMARKET DIFFERENCE INDEX’’ group’), ETHUSD outperforms BTCUSD, we assume the momentum to continue so we go long ETHUSD.
In the standard case we would exit the market when the IDI returns to its long run equilibrium of 0 (for the positive case the ID may return to 0 because ETH’s difference data may have decreased or BTC’s difference data may have increased). However in this strategy we will not define this as our exit condition, why ?
This is because we want to ‘‘let our winners run’’, to achieve this we define a trailing Donchian Channel stop loss (along with a fixed ATR based stop as our volatility proxy). If we were too use the 0 exit the strategy may print a buy signal (ID > +threshold in the simple case, market regimes may be used), return to 0 and then print another buy signal, and this process can loop may times, this high trade frequency means we fail capture the entire market move lowering our profit, furthermore on lower time frames this high trade frequencies mean we pay more transaction costs (due to price slippage, commission and big-ask spread) which means less profit.
By capturing the sum of many momentum moves we are essentially following the trend hence the trend following strategy type.
Here we also print the IDI (with default strategy settings with the MA difference type), we can see that by letting our winners run we may catch many valid momentum moves, that results in a larger final pnl that if we would otherwise exit based on the equilibrium condition(Valid trades are denoted by solid green and red arrows respectively and all other valid trades which occur within the original signal are light green and red small arrows).
another example...

Note it is possible that after printing a buy the strategy then prints many sell signals before returning to a buy, which again has the same implication (less profit. Potentially because we exit early only for price to continue upwards hence missing the larger "trend"). The image below showcases this cenario and again, by allowing our winner to run we may capture more profit (theoretically).
This should be clear...
🔸 Mean Reversion Case:
We stated prior that mean reversion of anomalies is an standerdies fact of financial data, how can we exploit this ?
We exploit this by normalizing the ID by applying the Ehlers fisher transformation. The transformed data is then assumed to be approximately normally distributed. To form the strategy we employ the same logic as for the z score, if the FT normalized ID > 2.5 (< -2.5) we buy (short). Our exit conditions remain unchanged (fixed ATR stop and trailing Donchian Trailing stop)
🔷 Position Sizing:
If ‘‘Fixed Risk From Initial Balance’’ is toggled true this means we risk a fixed percentage of our initial balance, if false we risk a fixed percentage of our equity (current balance).
Note we also employ a volatility adjusted position sizing formula, the turtle training method which is defined as follows.
Turtle position size = (1/ r * ATR * DV) * C
Where,
r = risk factor coefficient (default is 20)
ATR(j) = risk proxy, over j times steps
DV = Dollar Volatility, where DV = (1/Asset Price) * Capital at Risk
🔷 Risk Management:
Correct money management means we can limit risk and increase reward (theoretically). Here we employ
Max loss and gain per day
Max loss per trade
Max number of consecutive losing trades until trade skip
To read more see the tooltips (info circle).
🔷 Take Profit:
By defualt the script uses a Donchain Channel as a trailing stop and take profit, In addition to this the script defines a fixed ATR stop losses (by defualt, this covers cases where the DC range may be to wide making a fixed ATR stop usefull), ATR take profits however are defined but optional.
ATR SL and TP defined for all trades
🔷 Hurst Regime (Regime Filter):
The Hurst Exponent (H) aims to segment the market into three different states, Trending (H > 0.5), Random Geometric Brownian Motion (H = 0.5) and Mean Reverting / Contrarian (H < 0.5). In my interpretation this can be used as a trend filter that eliminates market noise.
We utilize the trending and mean reverting based states, as extra conditions required for valid trades for both strategy types respectively, in the process increasing our trade entry quality.
🔷 Example model Architecture:
Here is an example of one configuration of this strategy, combining all aspects discussed in this post.

Uptrick: DPO Signal & Zone Indicator
## **Uptrick: DPO Signal & Zone Indicator**
### **Introduction:**
The **Uptrick: DPO Signal & Zone Indicator** is a sophisticated technical analysis tool tailored to provide insights into market momentum, identify potential trading signals, and recognize extreme market conditions. It leverages the Detrended Price Oscillator (DPO) to strip out long-term trends from price movements, allowing traders to focus on short-term fluctuations and cyclical behavior. The indicator integrates multiple components, including a Detrended Price Oscillator, a Signal Line, a Histogram, and customizable alert levels, to deliver a robust framework for market analysis and trading decision-making.
### **Detailed Breakdown:**
#### **1. Detrended Price Oscillator (DPO):**
- **Purpose and Functionality:**
- The DPO is designed to filter out long-term trends from the price data, isolating short-term price movements. This helps in understanding the cyclical patterns and momentum of an asset, allowing traders to detect periods of acceleration or deceleration that might be overlooked when focusing solely on long-term trends.
- **Calculation:**
- **Formula:** `dpo = close - ta.sma(close, smaLength)`
- **`close`:** The asset’s closing price for each period in the dataset.
- **`ta.sma(close, smaLength)`:** The Simple Moving Average (SMA) of the closing prices over a period defined by `smaLength`.
- The DPO is derived by subtracting the SMA value from the current closing price. This calculation reveals how much the current price deviates from the moving average, effectively detrending the price data.
- **Interpretation:**
- **Positive DPO Values:** Indicate that the current price is higher than the moving average, suggesting bullish market conditions and a potential upward trend.
- **Negative DPO Values:** Indicate that the current price is lower than the moving average, suggesting bearish market conditions and a potential downward trend.
- **Magnitude of DPO:** Reflects the strength of momentum. Larger positive or negative values suggest stronger momentum in the respective direction.
#### **2. Signal Line:**
- **Purpose and Functionality:**
- The Signal Line is a smoothed average of the DPO, intended to act as a reference point for generating trading signals. It helps to filter out short-term fluctuations and provides a clearer perspective on the prevailing trend.
- **Calculation:**
- **Formula:** `signalLine = ta.sma(dpo, signalLength)`
- **`ta.sma(dpo, signalLength)`:** The SMA of the DPO values over a period defined by `signalLength`.
- The Signal Line is calculated by applying a moving average to the DPO values. This smoothing process reduces noise and highlights the underlying trend direction.
- **Interpretation:**
- **DPO Crossing Above Signal Line:** Generates a buy signal, suggesting that short-term momentum is turning bullish relative to the longer-term trend.
- **DPO Crossing Below Signal Line:** Generates a sell signal, suggesting that short-term momentum is turning bearish relative to the longer-term trend.
- **Signal Line’s Role:** Provides a benchmark for assessing the strength of the DPO. The interaction between the DPO and the Signal Line offers actionable insights into potential entry or exit points.
#### **3. Histogram:**
- **Purpose and Functionality:**
- The Histogram visualizes the difference between the DPO and the Signal Line. It provides a graphical representation of momentum strength and direction, allowing traders to quickly gauge market conditions.
- **Calculation:**
- **Formula:** `histogram = dpo - signalLine`
- The Histogram is computed by subtracting the Signal Line value from the DPO value. Positive values indicate that the DPO is above the Signal Line, while negative values indicate that the DPO is below the Signal Line.
- **Interpretation:**
- **Color Coding:**
- **Green Bars:** Represent positive values, indicating bullish momentum.
- **Red Bars:** Represent negative values, indicating bearish momentum.
- **Width of Bars:** Indicates the strength of momentum. Wider bars signify stronger momentum, while narrower bars suggest weaker momentum.
- **Zero Line:** A horizontal gray line that separates positive and negative histogram values. Crosses of the histogram through this zero line can signal shifts in momentum direction.
#### **4. Alert Levels:**
- **Purpose and Functionality:**
- Alert levels define specific thresholds to identify extreme market conditions, such as overbought and oversold states. These levels help traders recognize potential reversal points and extreme market conditions.
- **Inputs:**
- **`alertLevel1`:** Defines the upper threshold for identifying overbought conditions.
- **Default Value:** 0.5
- **`alertLevel2`:** Defines the lower threshold for identifying oversold conditions.
- **Default Value:** -0.5
- **Interpretation:**
- **Overbought Condition:** When the DPO exceeds `alertLevel1`, indicating that the market may be overbought. This condition suggests that the asset could be due for a correction or reversal.
- **Oversold Condition:** When the DPO falls below `alertLevel2`, indicating that the market may be oversold. This condition suggests that the asset could be poised for a rebound or reversal.
#### **5. Visual Elements:**
- **DPO and Signal Line Plots:**
- **DPO Plot:**
- **Color:** Blue
- **Width:** 2 pixels
- **Purpose:** To visually represent the deviation of the current price from the moving average.
- **Signal Line Plot:**
- **Color:** Red
- **Width:** 1 pixel
- **Purpose:** To provide a smoothed reference for the DPO and generate trading signals.
- **Histogram Plot:**
- **Color Coding:**
- **Green:** For positive values, signaling bullish momentum.
- **Red:** For negative values, signaling bearish momentum.
- **Style:** Histogram bars are displayed with varying width to represent the strength of momentum.
- **Zero Line:** A gray horizontal line separating positive and negative histogram values.
- **Overbought/Oversold Zones:**
- **Background Colors:**
- **Green Shading:** Applied when the DPO exceeds `alertLevel1`, indicating an overbought condition.
- **Red Shading:** Applied when the DPO falls below `alertLevel2`, indicating an oversold condition.
- **Horizontal Lines:**
- **Dotted Green Line:** At `alertLevel1`, marking the upper alert threshold.
- **Dotted Red Line:** At `alertLevel2`, marking the lower alert threshold.
- **Purpose:** To provide clear visual cues for extreme market conditions, aiding in the identification of potential reversal points.
#### **6. Trading Signals and Alerts:**
- **Buy Signal:**
- **Trigger:** When the DPO crosses above the Signal Line.
- **Visual Representation:** A "BUY" label appears below the price bar in the specified buy color.
- **Purpose:** Indicates a potential buying opportunity as short-term momentum turns bullish.
- **Sell Signal:**
- **Trigger:** When the DPO crosses below the Signal Line.
- **Visual Representation:** A "SELL" label appears above the price bar in the specified sell color.
- **Purpose:** Indicates a potential selling opportunity as short-term momentum turns bearish.
- **Overbought/Oversold Alerts:**
- **Overbought Alert:** Triggered when the DPO crosses below `alertLevel1`.
- **Oversold Alert:** Triggered when the DPO crosses above `alertLevel2`.
- **Visual Representation:** Labels "OVERBOUGHT" and "OVERSOLD" appear with distinctive colors and sizes to highlight extreme conditions.
- **Purpose:** To signal potential reversal points and extreme market conditions that may lead to price corrections or trend reversals.
- **Alert Conditions:**
- **DPO Cross Above Signal Line:** Alerts traders when the DPO crosses above the Signal Line, generating a buy signal.
- **DPO Cross Below Signal Line:** Alerts traders when the DPO crosses below the Signal Line, generating a sell signal.
- **DPO Above Upper Alert Level:** Alerts when the DPO is above `alertLevel1`, indicating an overbought condition.
- **DPO Below Lower Alert Level:** Alerts when the DPO is below `alertLevel2`, indicating an oversold condition.
- **Purpose:** To provide real-time notifications of significant market events, enabling traders to make informed decisions promptly.
### **Practical Applications:**
#### **1. Trend Following Strategies:**
- **Objective:**
- To capture and ride the prevailing market trends by entering trades that align with the direction of the momentum.
- **How to Use:**
- Monitor buy and sell signals generated by the DPO crossing the Signal Line. A buy signal suggests a bullish trend and a potential long trade, while a sell signal suggests a bearish trend and a potential short trade.
- Use the Histogram to confirm the strength of the trend. Expanding green bars indicate strong bullish momentum, while expanding red bars indicate strong bearish momentum.
- **Advantages:**
- Helps traders stay aligned with the market trend, increasing the likelihood of capturing substantial price moves.
#### **2. Reversal Trading:**
- **Objective:**
- To identify potential market reversals
by detecting overbought and oversold conditions.
- **How to Use:**
- Look for overbought and oversold signals based on the DPO crossing `alertLevel1` and `alertLevel2`. These conditions suggest that the market may be due for a reversal.
- Confirm reversal signals with the Histogram. A decrease in histogram bars (from green to red or vice versa) may support the reversal hypothesis.
- **Advantages:**
- Provides early warnings of potential market reversals, allowing traders to position themselves before significant price changes occur.
#### **3. Momentum Analysis:**
- **Objective:**
- To gauge the strength and direction of market momentum for making informed trading decisions.
- **How to Use:**
- Analyze the Histogram to assess momentum strength. Positive and expanding histogram bars indicate increasing bullish momentum, while negative and expanding bars suggest increasing bearish momentum.
- Use momentum insights to validate or question existing trading positions and strategies.
- **Advantages:**
- Offers valuable information about the market's momentum, helping traders confirm the validity of trends and trading signals.
### **Customization and Flexibility:**

Zaree - FX Index RSI IndicatorDescription:
The "Zaree - FX Index RSI Indicator" (FIRI) is a technical analysis tool designed to provide insights into the relative strength of two selected currency indices using the Relative Strength Index (RSI). It allows traders to compare the RSI values of a primary currency index and a secondary currency index, helping them identify potential overbought and oversold conditions in the currency market.
Details of the Indicator:
The indicator calculates the RSI for both the primary and secondary currency indices based on the user's selections.
Traders can choose from a variety of currency indices to use as the primary and secondary indices for comparison.
The indicator offers settings for customizing the calculation of the RSI, including selecting the type of moving average (SMA, EMA, WMA, SMMA) and adjusting the length of the RSI and moving average.
Upper and lower RSI bands are displayed on the chart to highlight potential overbought and oversold conditions.
The RSI values and their corresponding moving average values are plotted on the chart, allowing traders to visually analyze the relative strength of the indices.
How to Use the Indicator:
Select the primary and secondary currency indices you want to compare from the provided dropdown menus. These indices will serve as the basis for RSI calculation.
Choose the type of moving average (SMA, EMA, WMA, SMMA) to use for RSI calculation and set the desired length for the moving average.
Decide whether you want to visualize the RSI and moving average values for the primary and secondary indices on the chart.
Observe the RSI values and moving averages plotted on the chart. The indicator's upper and lower bands can help you identify potential overbought (above the upper band) and oversold (below the lower band) conditions.
Pay attention to the intersections between the RSI values and the moving average lines. These intersections can provide insights into potential trend changes or reversals in the currency market.
Example of Usage:
Let's say you're a swing trader focusing on currency pairs involving the US Dollar (USD) and Euro (EUR). You want to compare the relative strength of the USD Index (USDINX) and the EUR Index (EURINX) to identify potential trading opportunities. Here's how you can use the FIRI indicator:
Select "USDINX" as the primary index and "EURINX" as the secondary index.
Choose "SMA" as the moving average type and set the RSI length to 14.
Enable the visualization of RSI values for both the primary and secondary indices.
Observe the chart to identify instances where the RSI values of the indices cross above the upper band (potential overbought) or below the lower band (potential oversold).
Look for intersections between the RSI values and the moving average lines. A bullish signal may occur when the RSI crosses above the moving average, indicating potential upward momentum, while a bearish signal may occur when the RSI crosses below the moving average, indicating potential downward momentum.
Remember that the FIRI indicator is a tool to assist you in your analysis. It's important to consider other technical and fundamental factors before making trading decisions.
Feel free to adjust the settings of the indicator based on your trading preferences and strategy. Keep in mind that no indicator is foolproof, and it's recommended to use the FIRI indicator in conjunction with other analysis techniques for a comprehensive trading approach.
The Great Anchors: Dual AVWAP Powered by RSI
The Great Anchors
*Dual Anchored Volume Weighted Average Price Powered by RSI*
---
📌 Overview
The Great Anchors is a dual AVWAP-based indicator that resets dynamically using RSI extremes — either from the current asset or a master symbol (e.g., BTCUSDT). It identifies meaningful shifts in price structure and momentum using these "anchored" levels.
It’s designed to help traders spot trend continuations, momentum inflection points, and entry signals aligned with overbought/oversold conditions — but only when the market confirms through volume-weighted price direction.
---
🛠 Core Logic
• AVWAP 1 (favwap): Anchored when RSI reaches overbought levels (top anchor)
• AVWAP 2 (savwap): Anchored when RSI reaches oversold levels (bottom anchor)
• AVWAPs are recalculated each time a new OB/OS condition is triggered — acting like "fresh anchors" at key market turning points.
---
⚙️ Key Features
🔁 Auto or Manual RSI Thresholds
→ Automatically determines dynamic RSI OB/OS levels based on past peaks and troughs, or lets you set fixed levels.
🧠 Master Symbol Control
→ Use the RSI of a separate asset (like BTCUSDT, ETHUSDT, SOLUSDT, BNBUSDT, SUPRAUSDT) or indices (like TOTAL, TOTAL2, BFR) to control resets — ideal for tracking how BTC/major coins impacts altcoins/others.
🔍 Trend-Filtering Signal Logic
→ Signals are filtered for less noise and are triggered when:
- Both AVWAPs are rising (bullish) or falling (bearish)
- Price action confirms the structure
🎯 Visual Markers & Alerts
→ "💥" for bullish signals and "🔥" for bearish ones. Alerts included for automation or push notifications.
---
🎯 How to Use It
1. Add the indicator to your chart.
2. Choose whether to use RSI from the current symbol or a master symbol (e.g., BTC).
3. Select auto-adjusted or manual OB/OS levels.
4. Watch for:
- AVWAP(s) making a significant change (at this point it's one of the AVWAPs resetting)
- Check if price flip it upwards or downwards
- If price goes above both AVWAPs thats a likely bullish trend
- If price can't go above both AVWAPs up and fall bellow both that's a likely bearish trend
- Price retesting upper AVWAP and bounce
- likely bullish continuation
- Price retesting lower AVWAP and dip
- likely bearish continuation
- Signal icons on chart ("💥 - Bullish" or "🔥- Bearish")
Best suited for:
• Swing traders
• Momentum traders
• Traders timing altcoin entries using BTC/Major asset's RSI
---
🔔 Signal Explanation
💥 Bullish Signal =
• Both AVWAPs rising
• Higher lows in price structure
• Bullish candle close
• Triggered from overbought RSI reset
🔥 Bearish Signal =
• Both AVWAPs falling
• Lower highs in price structure
• Bearish candle close
• Triggered from oversold RSI reset
Signals reset by opposite signals to prevent noise or overfitting.
---
⚠️ Tips & Notes
• Use AVWAPs as dynamic support/resistance, even without signal triggers
• Pair with volume or divergence tools for stronger confirmation
---
🧩 Credits & Philosophy
This tool is built with a simple philosophy:
"Anchor your trades to meaningful moments in price — not arbitrary time."
The dual AVWAP concept helps you see how price reacts after momentum peaks, giving you a cleaner bias and more precise trade setups.

Heikin-Ashi Mean Reversion Oscillator [Alpha Extract]The Heikin-Ashi Mean Reversion Oscillator combines the smoothing characteristics of Heikin-Ashi candlesticks with mean reversion analysis to create a powerful momentum oscillator. This indicator applies Heikin-Ashi transformation twice - first to price data and then to the oscillator itself - resulting in smoother signals while maintaining sensitivity to trend changes and potential reversal points.
🔶 CALCULATION
Heikin-Ashi Transformation: Converts regular OHLC data to smoothed Heikin-Ashi values
Component Analysis: Calculates trend strength, body deviation, and price deviation from mean
Oscillator Construction: Combines components with weighted formula (40% trend strength, 30% body deviation, 30% price deviation)
Double Smoothing: Applies EMA smoothing and second Heikin-Ashi transformation to oscillator values
Signal Generation: Identifies trend changes and crossover points with overbought/oversold levels
Formula:
HA Close = (Open + High + Low + Close) / 4
HA Open = (Previous HA Open + Previous HA Close) / 2
Trend Strength = Normalized consecutive HA candle direction
Body Deviation = (HA Body - Mean Body) / Mean Body * 100
Price Deviation = ((HA Close - Price Mean) / Price Mean * 100) / Standard Deviation * 25
Raw Oscillator = (Trend Strength * 0.4) + (Body Deviation * 0.3) + (Price Deviation * 0.3)
Final Oscillator = 50 + (EMA(Raw Oscillator) / 2)
🔶 DETAILS Visual Features:
Heikin-Ashi Candlesticks: Smoothed oscillator representation using HA transformation with vibrant teal/red coloring
Overbought/Oversold Zones: Horizontal lines at customizable levels (default 70/30) with background highlighting in extreme zones
Moving Averages: Optional fast and slow EMA overlays for additional trend confirmation
Signal Dashboard: Real-time table showing current oscillator status (Overbought/Oversold/Bullish/Bearish) and buy/sell signals
Reference Lines: Middle line at 50 (neutral), with 0 and 100 boundaries for range visualization
Interpretation:
Above 70: Overbought conditions, potential selling opportunity
Below 30: Oversold conditions, potential buying opportunity
Bullish HA Candles: Green/teal candles indicate upward momentum
Bearish HA Candles: Red candles indicate downward momentum
MA Crossovers: Fast EMA above slow EMA suggests bullish momentum, below suggests bearish momentum
Zone Exits: Price moving out of extreme zones (above 70 or below 30) often signals trend continuation
🔶 EXAMPLES
Mean Reversion Signals: When the oscillator reaches extreme levels (above 70 or below 30), it identifies potential reversal points where price may revert to the mean.
Example: Oscillator reaching 80+ levels during strong uptrends often precedes short-term pullbacks, providing profit-taking opportunities.
Trend Change Detection: The double Heikin-Ashi smoothing helps identify genuine trend changes while filtering out market noise.
Example: When oscillator HA candles change from red to teal after oversold readings, this confirms potential trend reversal from bearish to bullish.
Moving Average Confirmation: Fast and slow EMA crossovers on the oscillator provide additional confirmation of momentum shifts.
Example: Fast EMA crossing above slow EMA while oscillator is rising from oversold levels provides strong bullish confirmation signal.

Volume Block Order AnalyzerCore Concept
The Volume Block Order Analyzer is a sophisticated Pine Script strategy designed to detect and analyze institutional money flow through large block trades. It identifies unusually high volume candles and evaluates their directional bias to provide clear visual signals of potential market movements.
How It Works: The Mathematical Model
1. Volume Anomaly Detection
The strategy first identifies "block trades" using a statistical approach:
```
avgVolume = ta.sma(volume, lookbackPeriod)
isHighVolume = volume > avgVolume * volumeThreshold
```
This means a candle must have volume exceeding the recent average by a user-defined multiplier (default 2.0x) to be considered a significant block trade.
2. Directional Impact Calculation
For each block trade identified, its price action determines direction:
- Bullish candle (close > open): Positive impact
- Bearish candle (close < open): Negative impact
The magnitude of impact is proportional to the volume size:
```
volumeWeight = volume / avgVolume // How many times larger than average
blockImpact = (isBullish ? 1.0 : -1.0) * (volumeWeight / 10)
```
This creates a normalized impact score typically ranging from -1.0 to 1.0, scaled by dividing by 10 to prevent excessive values.
3. Cumulative Impact with Time Decay
The key innovation is the cumulative impact calculation with decay:
```
cumulativeImpact := cumulativeImpact * impactDecay + blockImpact
```
This mathematical model has important properties:
- Recent block trades have stronger influence than older ones
- Impact gradually "fades" at rate determined by decay factor (default 0.95)
- Sustained directional pressure accumulates over time
- Opposing pressure gradually counteracts previous momentum
Trading Logic
Signal Generation
The strategy generates trading signals based on momentum shifts in institutional order flow:
1. Long Entry Signal: When cumulative impact crosses from negative to positive
```
if ta.crossover(cumulativeImpact, 0)
strategy.entry("Long", strategy.long)
```
*Logic: Institutional buying pressure has overcome selling pressure, indicating potential upward movement*
2. Short Entry Signal: When cumulative impact crosses from positive to negative
```
if ta.crossunder(cumulativeImpact, 0)
strategy.entry("Short", strategy.short)
```
*Logic: Institutional selling pressure has overcome buying pressure, indicating potential downward movement*
3. Exit Logic: Positions are closed when the cumulative impact moves against the position
```
if cumulativeImpact < 0
strategy.close("Long")
```
*Logic: The original signal is no longer valid as institutional flow has reversed*
Visual Interpretation System
The strategy employs multiple visualization techniques:
1. Color Gradient Bar System:
- Deep green: Strong buying pressure (impact > 0.5)
- Light green: Moderate buying pressure (0.1 < impact ≤ 0.5)
- Yellow-green: Mild buying pressure (0 < impact ≤ 0.1)
- Yellow: Neutral (impact = 0)
- Yellow-orange: Mild selling pressure (-0.1 < impact ≤ 0)
- Orange: Moderate selling pressure (-0.5 < impact ≤ -0.1)
- Red: Strong selling pressure (impact ≤ -0.5)
2. Dynamic Impact Line:
- Plots the cumulative impact as a line
- Line color shifts with impact value
- Line movement shows momentum and trend strength
3. Block Trade Labels:
- Marks significant block trades directly on the chart
- Shows direction and volume amount
- Helps identify key moments of institutional activity
4. Information Dashboard:
- Current impact value and signal direction
- Average volume benchmark
- Count of significant block trades
- Min/Max impact range
Benefits and Use Cases
This strategy provides several advantages:
1. Institutional Flow Detection: Identifies where large players are positioning themselves
2. Early Trend Identification: Often detects institutional accumulation/distribution before major price movements
3. Market Context Enhancement: Provides deeper insight than simple price action alone
4. Objective Decision Framework: Quantifies what might otherwise be subjective observations
5. Adaptive to Market Conditions: Works across different timeframes and instruments by using relative volume rather than absolute thresholds
Customization Options
The strategy allows users to fine-tune its behavior:
- Volume Threshold: How unusual a volume spike must be to qualify
- Lookback Period: How far back to measure average volume
- Impact Decay Factor: How quickly older trades lose influence
- Visual Settings: Labels and line width customization
This sophisticated yet intuitive strategy provides traders with a window into institutional activity, helping identify potential trend changes before they become obvious in price action alone.
Dynamic Price Oscillator (Zeiierman)█ Overview
The Dynamic Price Oscillator (DPO) by Zeiierman is designed to gauge the momentum and volatility of asset prices in trading markets. By integrating elements of traditional oscillators with volatility adjustments and Bollinger Bands, the DPO offers a unique approach to understanding market dynamics. This indicator is particularly useful for identifying overbought and oversold conditions, capturing price trends, and detecting potential reversal points.
█ How It Works
The DPO operates by calculating the difference between the current closing price and a moving average of the closing price, adjusted for volatility using the True Range method. This difference is then smoothed over a user-defined period to create the oscillator. Additionally, Bollinger Bands are applied to the oscillator itself, providing visual cues for volatility and potential breakout signals.
█ How to Use
⚪ Trend Confirmation
The DPO can serve as a confirmation tool for existing trends. Traders might look for the oscillator to maintain above or below its mean line to confirm bullish or bearish trends, respectively. A consistent direction in the oscillator's movement alongside price trend can provide additional confidence in the strength and sustainability of the trend.
⚪ Overbought/Oversold Conditions
With the application of Bollinger Bands directly on the oscillator, the DPO can highlight overbought or oversold conditions in a unique manner. When the oscillator moves outside the Bollinger Bands, it signifies an extreme condition.
⚪ Volatility Breakouts
The width of the Bollinger Bands on the oscillator reflects market volatility. Sudden expansions in the bands can indicate a breakout from a consolidation phase, which traders can use to enter trades in the direction of the breakout. Conversely, a contraction suggests a quieter market, which might be a signal for traders to wait or to look for range-bound strategies.
⚪ Momentum Trading
Momentum traders can use the DPO to spot moments when the market momentum is picking up. A sharp move of the oscillator towards either direction, especially when crossing the Bollinger Bands, can indicate the start of a strong price movement.
⚪ Mean Reversion
The DPO is also useful for mean reversion strategies, especially considering its volatility adjustment feature. When the oscillator touches or breaches the Bollinger Bands, it indicates a deviation from the normal price range. Traders might look for opportunities to enter trades anticipating a reversion to the mean.
⚪ Divergence Trading
Divergences between the oscillator and price action can be a powerful signal for reversals. For instance, if the price makes a new high but the oscillator fails to make a corresponding high, it may indicate weakening momentum and a potential reversal. Traders can use these divergence signals to initiate counter-trend moves.
█ Settings
Length: Determines the lookback period for the oscillator and Bollinger Bands calculation. Increasing this value smooths the oscillator and widens the Bollinger Bands, leading to fewer, more significant signals. Decreasing this value makes the oscillator more sensitive to recent price changes, offering more frequent signals but with increased noise.
Smoothing Factor: Adjusts the degree of smoothing applied to the oscillator's calculation. A higher smoothing factor reduces noise, offering clearer trend identification at the cost of signal timeliness. Conversely, a lower smoothing factor increases the oscillator's responsiveness to price movements, which may be useful for short-term trading but at the risk of false signals.

Composite Bull-Bear Dominance IndexNote: CREDITS: This is based on the Up Down Volume Indicator (published in Trading View) and Elder Ray Index (Bull Bear Power).
The Composite Bull Bear Dominance Index (CBBDI) is a indicator that combines up down volume analysis with Bull and Bear Power to provide a comprehensive view of market dynamics. It calculates Z-scores for up down volume delta and bull bear power measures, averages them, and then smoothes the result using Weighted Moving Average (WMA) for Bull and Bear Power and Volume Weighted Moving Average (VWMA) for Up and Down Volume Delta. The advantages include responsiveness to short-term trends, noise reduction through weighting, incorporation of volume information, and the ability to identify significant changes in buying and selling pressure. The indicator aims to offer clear signals for traders seeking insights into overall market dominance and indicate if the bulls or the bears have the upper hand.
Volume Analysis (Up/Down Volume Delta):
Up/Down Volume Delta reflects the net difference between buying and selling volume, providing insights into the prevailing market sentiment.
Positive Delta: Indicates potential bullish dominance due to higher buying volume.
Negative Delta: Suggests potential bearish dominance as selling volume surpasses buying volume.
Price Analysis (Bull and Bear Power):
Bull and Bear Power measure the strength of buying and selling forces based on price movements and the Exponential Moving Average (EMA) of the closing price.
Positive Bull Power: Reflects bullish dominance, indicating potential upward momentum.
Positive Bear Power: Suggests bearish dominance, indicating potential downward momentum.
Composite Bull Bear Dominance Index (CBBDI):
CBBDI combines the standardized Z-scores of Up/Down Volume Delta and Bull Bear Power, providing an average measure of both volume and price-related dominance.
Positive CBBDI: Indicates an overall bullish dominance in both volume and price dynamics.
Negative CBBDI: Suggests an overall bearish dominance in both volume and price dynamics.
Smoothing Techniques:
The use of Weighted Moving Average (WMA) for smoothing Bull and Bear Power Z-scores, and Volume Weighted Moving Average (VWMA) for smoothing Up/Down Volume Delta, reduces noise and provides a clearer trend signal.
Smoothing helps filter out short-term fluctuations and emphasizes more significant trends in both volume and price movements.
Color Coding:
CBBDI values are color-coded based on their direction, visually representing the prevailing market sentiment.
Green Colors: Positive values indicate potential bullish dominance.
Red Colors: Negative values suggest potential bearish dominance.
Logical Trading Indicator V.1Features of the Logical Trading Indicator V.1
ATR-Based Trailing Stop Loss
The Logical Trading Indicator V.1 utilizes the Average True Range (ATR) to implement a dynamic trailing stop loss. You can customize the sensitivity of your alerts by adjusting the ATR Multiple and ATR Period settings.
Higher ATR Multiple values create wider stops, while lower values result in tighter stops. This feature ensures that your trades are protected against adverse price movements. For best practice, use higher values on higher timeframes and lower values on lower term timeframes.
Bollinger Bands
The Logical Trading Indicator V.1 includes Bollinger Bands, which can be customized to use either a Simple Moving Average (SMA) or an Exponential Moving Average (EMA) as the basis.
You can adjust the length and standard deviation multiplier of the Bollinger Bands to fine-tune your strategy. The color of the basis line changes to green when price is above and red when price is below the line to represent the trend.
The bands show a range vs a single band that also represents when the price is in overbought and oversold ranges similar to an RSI. These bands also control the take profit signals.
You also have the ability to change the band colors as well as toggle them off, which only affects the view, they are still active which will still fire the take profit signals.
Momentum Indicator
Our indicator offers a momentum filter option that highlights market momentum directly on the candlesticks, identifying periods of bullish, bearish, or consolidation phases. You can enable or disable this filter as needed, providing valuable insights into market conditions.
By default, you will see the candlestick colors represent the momentum direction as green or red, and consolidation periods as white, but the filter on the BUY and SELL signals is not active. The view options and filter can be toggled on and off in the settings.
Buy and Sell Signals
The Logical Trading Indicator V.1 generates buy and sell signals based on a combination of ATR-based filtering, Bollinger Band basis crossover, and optional momentum conditions if selected in the settings. These signals help you make informed decisions about when to enter or exit a trade. You can also enable a consolidation filter to stay out of trades during tight ranges.
Basically a BUY signal fires when the price closes above the basis line, and the price meets or exceeds the ATR multiple from the previous candle length, which is also editable in the settings.
If the momentum filter is engaged, it will not fire BUY signals when in consolidation periods. It works just the opposite for SELL signals.
Take Profit Signals
We've integrated a Take Profit feature that helps you identify points to exit your trades with profits. The indicator marks Long Take Profit when prices close below the upper zone line of the Bollinger Bands after the previous candle closes inside the band, suggesting an optimal point to exit a long trade or consider a short position.
Conversely, Short Take Profit signals appear when prices close above the lower zone after the previous candle closes inside of it, indicating the right time to exit a short trade or contemplate a long position.
Alerts for Informed Trading
The Logical Trading Indicator V.1 comes equipped with alert conditions for buy signals, sell signals, take profit points, and more. Receive real-time notifications to your preferred devices or platforms to stay updated on market movements and trading opportunities.
Stochastic Zone Strength Trend [wbburgin](This script was originally invite-only, but I'd vastly prefer contributing to the TradingView community more than anything else, so I am making it public :) I'd much rather share my ideas with you all.)
The Stochastic Zone Strength Trend indicator is a very powerful momentum and trend indicator that 1) identifies trend direction and strength, 2) determines pullbacks and reversals (including oversold and overbought conditions), 3) identifies divergences, and 4) can filter out ranges. I have some examples below on how to use it to its full effectiveness. It is composed of two components: Stochastic Zone Strength and Stochastic Trend Strength.
Stochastic Zone Strength
At its most basic level, the stochastic Zone Strength plots the momentum of the price action of the instrument, and identifies bearish and bullish changes with a high degree of accuracy. Think of the stochastic Zone Strength as a much more robust equivalent of the RSI. Momentum-change thresholds are demonstrated by the "20" and "80" levels on the indicator (see below image).
Stochastic Trend Strength
The stochastic Trend Strength component of the script uses resistance in each candlestick to calculate the trend strength of the instrument. I'll go more into detail about the settings after my description of how to use the indicator, but there are two forms of the stochastic Trend Strength:
Anchored at 50 (directional stochastic Trend Strength):
The directional stochastic Trend Strength can be used similarly to the MACD difference or other histogram-like indicators : a rising plot indicates an upward trend, while a falling plot indicates a downward trend.
Anchored at 0 (nondirectional stochastic Trend Strength):
The nondirectional stochastic Trend Strength can be used similarly to the ADX or other non-directional indicators : a rising plot indicates increasing trend strength, and look at the stochastic Zone Strength component and your instrument to determine if this indicates increasing bullish strength or increasing bearish strength (see photo below):
(In the above photo, a bearish divergence indicated that the high Trend Strength predicted a strong downwards move, which was confirmed shortly after. Later, a bullish move upward by the Zone Strength while the Trend Strength was elevated predicated a strong upwards move, which was also confirmed. Note the period where the Trend Strength never reached above 80, which indicated a ranging period (and thus unprofitable to enter or exit)).
How to Use the Indicator
The above image is a good example on how to use the indicator to determine divergences and possible pivot points (lines and circles, respectively). I recommend using both the stochastic Zone Strength and the stochastic Trend Strength at the same time, as it can give you a robust picture of where momentum is in relation to the price action and its trajectory. Every color is changeable in the settings.
Settings
The Amplitude of the indicator is essentially the high-low lookback for both components.
The Wavelength of the indicator is how stretched-out you want the indicator to be: how many amplitudes do you want the indicator to process in one given bar.
A useful analogy that I use (and that I derived the names from) is from traditional physics. In wave motion, the Amplitude is the up-down sensitivity of the wave, and the Wavelength is the side-side stretch of the wave.
The Smoothing Factor of the settings is simply how smoothed you want the stochastic to be. It's not that important in most circumstances.
Trend Anchor was covered above (see my description of Trend Strength). The "Trend Transform MA Length" is the EMA length of the Trend Strength that you use to transform it into the directional oscillator. Think of the EMA being transformed onto the 50 line and then the Trend Strength being dragged relative to that.
Trend Transform MA Length is the EMA length you want to use for transforming the nondirectional Trend Strength (anchored at 0) into the directional Trend Strength (anchored at 50). I suggest this be the same as the wavelength.
Trend Plot Type can transform the Nondirectional Trend Strength into a line plot so that it doesn't murk up the background.
Finally, the colors are changeable on the bottom.
Explanation of Zone Strength
If you're knowledgeable in Pine Script, I encourage you to look at the code to try to understand the concept, as it's a little complicated. The theory behind my Zone Strength concept is that the wicks in every bar can be used create an index of bullish and bearish resistance, as a wick signifies that the price crossed above a threshold before returning to its origin. This distance metric is unique because most indicators/formulas for calculating relative strength use a displacement metric (such as close - open) instead of measuring how far the price actually moved (up and down) within a candlestick. This is what the Zone Strength concept represents - the hesitation within the bar that is not typically represented in typical momentum indicators.
In the script's code I have step by step explanations of how the formula is calculated and why it is calculated as such. I encourage you to play around with the amplitude and wavelength inputs as they can make the zone strength look very different and perform differently depending on your interests.
Enjoy!

Compare - Oscillator vs BTC momentumI've made a simple indicator to compare the momentum of a trading pair against the momentum of BTC to the dollar. I use it to see how a pair is affected by BTC's momentum... I wouldnt use it to trade off alone, but it can be a useful tool alongside other indicators.
The time range can be adjusted, but I wouldnt reccomend setting it to anything over 12M, or under 1W.... as I'm not sure if it would work.
Any feedback is welcome!
This is an idea I had after looking at a wonderful visualisation made by BarclayJames, link below:

PRO Investing - Apex EnginePRO Investing - Apex Engine
1. Core Concept: Why Does This Indicator Exist?
Traditional momentum oscillators like RSI or Stochastic use a fixed "lookback period" (e.g., 14). This creates a fundamental problem: a 14-period setting that works well in a fast, trending market will generate constant false signals in a slow, choppy market, and vice-versa. The market's character is dynamic, but most tools are static.
The Apex Engine was built to solve this problem. Its primary innovation is a self-optimizing core that continuously adapts to changing market conditions. Instead of relying on one fixed setting, it actively tests three different momentum profiles (Fast, Mid, and Slow) in real-time and selects the one that is most synchronized with the current price action.
This is not just a random combination of indicators; it's a deliberate synthesis designed to create a more robust momentum tool. It combines:
Volatility analysis (ATR) to generate adaptive lookback periods.
Momentum measurement (ROC) to gauge the speed of price changes.
Statistical analysis (Correlation) to validate which momentum measurement is most effective right now.
Classic trend filters (Moving Average, ADX) to ensure signals are only taken in favorable market conditions.
The result is an oscillator that aims to be more responsive in volatile trends and more stable in quiet periods, providing a more intelligent and adaptive signal.
2. How It Works: The Engine's Three-Stage Process
To be transparent, it's important to understand the step-by-step logic the indicator follows on every bar. It's a process of Adapt -> Validate -> Signal.
Stage 1: Adapt (Dynamic Length Calculation)
The engine first measures market volatility using the Average True Range (ATR) relative to its own long-term average. This creates a volatility_factor. In high-volatility environments, this factor causes the base calculation lengths to shorten. In low-volatility, they lengthen. This produces three potential Rate of Change (ROC) lengths: dynamic_fast_len, dynamic_mid_len, and dynamic_slow_len.
Stage 2: Validate (Self-Optimizing Mode Selection)
This is the core of the engine. It calculates the ROC for all three dynamic lengths. To determine which is best, it uses the ta.correlation() function to measure how well each ROC's movement has correlated with the actual bar-to-bar price changes over the "Optimization Lookback" period. The ROC length with the highest correlation score is chosen as the most effective profile for the current moment. This "active" mode is reflected in the oscillator's color and the dashboard.
Stage 3: Signal (Normalized Velocity Oscillator)
The winning ROC series is then normalized into a consistent oscillator (the Velocity line) that ranges from -100 (extreme oversold) to +100 (extreme overbought). This ensures signals are comparable across any asset or timeframe. Signals are only generated when this Velocity line crosses its signal line and the trend filters (explained below) give a green light.
3. How to Use the Indicator: A Practical Guide
Reading the Visuals:
Velocity Line (Blue/Yellow/Pink): The main oscillator line. Its color indicates which mode is active (Fast, Mid, or Slow).
Signal Line (White): A moving average of the Velocity line. Crossovers generate potential signals.
Buy/Sell Triangles (▲ / ▼): These are your primary entry signals. They are intentionally strict and only appear when momentum, trend, and price action align.
Background Color (Green/Red/Gray): This is your trend context.
Green: Bullish trend confirmed (e.g., price above a rising 200 EMA and ADX > 20). Only Buy signals (▲) can appear.
Red: Bearish trend confirmed. Only Sell signals (▼) can appear.
Gray: No clear trend. The market is likely choppy or consolidating. No signals will appear; it is best to stay out.
Trading Strategy Example:
Wait for a colored background. A green or red background indicates the market is in a tradable trend.
Look for a signal. For a green background, wait for a lime Buy triangle (▲) to appear.
Confirm the trade. Before entering, confirm the signal aligns with your own analysis (e.g., support/resistance levels, chart patterns).
Manage the trade. Set a stop-loss according to your risk management rules. An exit can be considered on a fixed target, a trailing stop, or when an opposing signal appears.
4. Settings and Customization
This script is open-source, and its settings are transparent. You are encouraged to understand them.
Synaptic Engine Group:
Volatility Period: The master control for the adaptive engine. Higher values are slower and more stable.
Optimization Lookback: How many bars to use for the correlation check.
Switch Sensitivity: A buffer to prevent frantic switching between modes.
Advanced Configuration & Filters Group:
Price Source: The data source for momentum calculation (default close).
Trend Filter MA Type & Length: Define your long-term trend.
Filter by MA Slope: A key feature. If ON, allows for "buy the dip" entries below a rising MA. If OFF, it's stricter, requiring price to be above the MA.
ADX Length & Threshold: Filters out non-trending, choppy markets. Signals will not fire if the ADX is below this threshold.
5. Important Disclaimer
This indicator is a decision-support tool for discretionary traders, not an automated trading system or financial advice. Past performance is not indicative of future results. All trading involves substantial risk. You should always use proper risk management, including setting stop-losses, and never risk more than you are prepared to lose. The signals generated by this script should be used as one component of a broader trading plan.
Future is hereOverview
"Future is Here" is an original, multi-faceted Pine Script indicator designed to provide traders with a comprehensive toolset for identifying high-probability trading opportunities. By integrating volatility-based entry zones, trend-based price targets, momentum confirmation, dynamic support/resistance levels, and risk-reward ratio (RRR) calculations, this indicator offers a cohesive and actionable trading framework. Each feature is carefully designed to complement the others, ensuring a synergistic approach that enhances decision-making across various market conditions. This script is unique in its ability to combine these elements into a single, streamlined interface with clear visual cues and customizable alerts, making it suitable for both novice and experienced traders.
Key Features and How They Work Together
Volatility-Based Entry Zones
Purpose: Identifies overbought and oversold conditions using a volatility-adjusted moving average, helping traders spot potential reversal zones.
Mechanism: Utilizes a user-defined volatility length and multiplier to calculate dynamic overbought/oversold thresholds based on the standard deviation of price. Crossovers and crossunders of these levels trigger "Buy Zone" or "Sell Zone" labels.
Synergy: These zones act as the foundation for entry signals, which are later confirmed by momentum and trend filters to reduce false signals.
Trend-Based Price Targets
Purpose: Projects potential price targets based on the prevailing trend, giving traders clear objectives for profit-taking.
Mechanism: Combines a fast and slow moving average to determine trend direction, then calculates target prices using a multiplier of the price deviation from the slow MA. Labels display bullish or bearish targets when the fast MA crosses the slow MA.
Synergy: Works in tandem with entry zones and momentum signals to align targets with market conditions, ensuring traders aim for realistic price levels supported by trend strength.
Momentum Confirmation
Purpose: Validates entry signals by assessing momentum strength, filtering out weak setups.
Mechanism: Uses the momentum indicator to detect bullish or bearish momentum crossovers, labeling them as "Strong" or "Weak" based on a comparison with a smoothed momentum average.
Synergy: Enhances the reliability of buy/sell signals by ensuring momentum aligns with volatility zones and trend direction, reducing the risk of premature entries.
Dynamic Support/Resistance Levels
Purpose: Highlights key price levels where the market is likely to react, aiding in trade planning and risk management.
Mechanism: Detects pivot highs and lows over a user-defined lookback period, drawing horizontal lines for the most recent support and resistance levels (limited to two each for clarity). Labels mark these levels with price values.
Synergy: Complements entry zones and price targets by providing context for potential reversal or continuation points, helping traders set logical stop-losses or take-profits.
Buy/Sell Signals with Risk-Reward Ratios
Purpose: Generates precise buy/sell signals with integrated take-profit (TP), stop-loss (SL), and RRR calculations for disciplined trading.
Mechanism: Combines volatility zone crossovers, trend confirmation, and positive momentum to trigger signals. ATR-based TP and SL levels are calculated, and the RRR is displayed in labels for quick assessment.
Synergy: This feature ties together all previous components, ensuring signals are only generated when volatility, trend, and momentum align, while providing clear risk-reward metrics for trade evaluation.
Customizable Alerts
Purpose: Enables traders to stay informed of trading opportunities without constant chart monitoring.
Mechanism: Alert conditions are set for buy and sell signals, delivering notifications with the entry price for seamless integration into trading workflows.
Synergy: Enhances usability by allowing traders to act on high-probability setups identified by the indicator’s combined logic.
Originality
"Future is Here" is an original creation that distinguishes itself through its holistic approach to technical analysis. Unlike single-purpose indicators, it integrates volatility, trend, momentum, and support/resistance into a unified system, reducing the need for multiple scripts. The inclusion of RRR calculations directly in signal labels is a unique feature that empowers traders to evaluate trade quality instantly. The script’s design emphasizes clarity and efficiency, with cooldowns to prevent label clutter and a limit on support/resistance lines to maintain chart readability. This combination of features, along with its customizable parameters, makes it a versatile and novel tool for traders seeking a robust, all-in-one solution.
How to Use
Setup: Add the indicator to your TradingView chart and adjust input parameters (e.g., Volatility Length, Trend Length, TP/SL Multipliers) to suit your trading style and timeframe.
Interpretation:
Look for "Buy Zone" or "Sell Zone" labels to identify potential entry points.
Confirm entries with "Bull Mom" or "Bear Mom" labels and trend direction (Bull/Bear Target labels).
Use Support/Resistance lines to set logical TP/SL levels or anticipate reversals.
Evaluate Buy/Sell signals with TP, SL, and RRR for high-probability trades.
Alerts: Set up alerts for Buy/Sell signals to receive real-time notifications.
Customization: Fine-tune multipliers and lengths to adapt the indicator to different markets (e.g., stocks, forex, crypto) or timeframes.
Uptrick: Universal Z-Score ValuationOverview
The Uptrick: Universal Z-Score Valuation is a tool designed to help traders spot when the market might be overreacting—whether that’s on the upside or the downside. It does this by combining the Z-scores of multiple key indicators into a single average, letting you see how far the current market conditions have stretched away from “normal.” This average is shown as a smooth line, supported by color-coded visuals, signal markers, optional background highlights, and a live breakdown table that shows the contribution of each indicator in real time. The focus here is on spotting potential reversals, not following trends. The indicator works well across all timeframes and asset classes, from fast intraday charts like the 1-minute and 5-minute, to higher timeframes such as the 4-hour, daily, or even weekly. Its universal design makes it suitable for any market — whether you're trading crypto, stocks, forex, or commodities.
Introduction
To understand what this indicator does, let’s start with the idea of a Z-score. In simple terms, a Z-score tells you how far a number is from the average of its recent history, measured in standard deviations. If the price of an asset is two standard deviations above its mean, that means it’s statistically “rare” or extended. That doesn’t guarantee a reversal—but it suggests the move is unusual enough to pay attention.
This concept isn’t new, but what this indicator does differently is apply the Z-score to a wide set of market signals—not just price. It looks at momentum, volatility, volume, risk-adjusted performance, and even institutional price baselines. Each of those indicators is normalized using Z-scores, and then they’re combined into one average. This gives you a single, easy-to-read line that summarizes whether the entire market is behaving abnormally. Instead of reacting to one indicator, you’re reacting to a statistically balanced blend.
Purpose
The goal of this script is to catch turning points—places where the market may be topping out or bottoming after becoming overstretched. It’s built for traders who want to fade sharp moves rather than follow trends. Think of moments when price explodes upward and starts pulling away from every moving average, volume spikes, volatility rises, and RSI shoots up. This tool is meant to spot those situations—not just when price is stretched, but when multiple different indicators agree that something is overdone.
Originality and Uniqueness
Most indicators that use Z-scores only apply them to one thing—price, RSI, or maybe Bollinger Bands. This one is different because it treats each indicator as a contributor to the full picture. You decide which ones to include, and the script averages them out. This makes the tool flexible but also deeply informative.
It doesn’t rely on complex or hidden math. It uses basic Z-score formulas, applies them to well-known indicators, and shows you the result. What makes it unique is the way it brings those signals together—statistically, visually, and interactively—so you can see what’s happening in the moment with full transparency. It’s not trying to be flashy or predictive. It’s just showing you when things have gone too far, too fast.
Inputs and Parameters
This indicator includes a wide range of configurable inputs, allowing users to customize which components are included in the Z-score average, how each indicator is calculated, and how results are displayed visually. Below is a detailed explanation of each input:
General Settings
Z-Score Lookback (default: 100): Number of bars used to calculate the mean and standard deviation for Z-score normalization. Larger values smooth the Z-scores; smaller values make them more reactive.
Bar Color Mode (default: None): Determines how bars are visually colored. Options include: None: No candle coloring applied. - Heat: Smooth gradient based on the Z-score value. - Latest Signal: Applies a solid color based on the most recent buy or sell signal

Why These Indicators Were Merged
Each indicator in this script was chosen for a specific reason. They all measure something different but complementary.
The VWAP Z-score helps you see when price has moved far from the volume-weighted average, often used by institutions.
Sortino Ratio Z-score focuses only on downside risk, which is often more relevant to traders than overall volatility.
ROC Z-score shows how fast price is changing—strong momentum may burn out quickly.
Price Z-score is the raw measure of how far current price has moved from its mean.
RSI Z-score shows whether momentum itself is stretched.
MACD Histogram Z-score captures shifts in trend strength and acceleration.
%B (Bollinger) Z-score indicates how close price is to the upper or lower volatility envelope.
Stochastic K Z-score gives a sense of how high or low price is relative to its recent range.
Volume Z-score shows when trading activity is unusually high or low.
ATR Z-score gives a read on volatility, showing if price movement is expanding or contracting.
Sharpe Z-score measures reward-to-risk performance, useful for evaluating trend quality.
Omega Z-score looks at the ratio of good returns to bad ones, offering a more nuanced view of efficiency.
By normalizing each of these using Z-scores and averaging only the ones you turn on, the script creates a flexible, balanced view of the market’s statistical stretch.
Calculations
The core formula is the standard Z-score:
Z = (current value - average) / standard deviation
Every indicator uses this formula after it’s calculated using your chosen settings. For example, RSI is first calculated as usual, then its Z-score is calculated over your selected lookback period. The script does this for every indicator you enable. Then it averages those Z-scores together to create a single value: zAvg. That value is plotted and used to generate visual cues, signals, table values, background color changes, and candle coloring.
Sequence
Each selected indicator is calculated using your custom input lengths.
The Z-score of each indicator is computed using the shared lookback period.
All active Z-scores are added up and averaged.
The resulting zAvg value is plotted as a line.
Signal conditions check if zAvg crosses user-defined thresholds (default: ±2).
If enabled, the script plots buy/sell signal labels at those crossover points.
The candle color is updated using your selected mode (heatmap or signal-based).
If extreme Z-scores are reached, background highlighting is applied.
A live table updates with each individual Z-score so you know what’s driving the signal.
Features
This script isn’t just about stats—it’s about making them usable in real time. Every feature has a clear reason to exist, and they’re all there to give you a better read on market conditions.
1. Universal Z-Score Line
This is your primary reference. It reflects the average Z-score across all selected indicators. The line updates live and is color-coded to show how far it is from neutral. The further it gets from 0, the brighter the color becomes—cyan for deeply oversold conditions, magenta for overbought. This gives you instant feedback on how statistically “hot” or “cold” the market is, without needing to read any numbers.
2. Signal Labels (“𝓤𝓹” and “𝓓𝓸𝔀𝓷”)
When the average Z-score drops below your lower bound, you’ll see a "𝓤𝓹" label below the bar, suggesting potential bullish reversal conditions. When it rises above the upper bound, a "𝓓𝓸𝔀𝓷" label is shown above the bar—indicating possible bearish exhaustion. These labels are visually clear and minimal so they don’t clutter your chart. They're based on clear crossover logic and do not repaint.
3. Real-Time Z-Score Table
The table shows each indicator's individual Z-score and the final average. It updates every bar, giving you a transparent breakdown of what’s happening under the hood. If the market is showing an extreme average score, this table helps you pinpoint which indicators are contributing the most—so you’re not just guessing where the pressure is coming from.
4. Bar Coloring Modes
You can choose from three modes:
None: Keeps your candles clean and untouched.
Heat: Applies a smooth gradient color based on Z-score intensity. As conditions become more extreme, candle color transitions from neutral to either cyan (bullish pressure) or magenta (bearish pressure).
Latest Signal: Applies hard coloring based on the most recent signal—greenish for a buy, purple for a sell. This mode is great for tracking market state at a glance without relying on a gradient.
Every part of the candle is colored—body, wick, and border—for full visibility.
5. Background Highlighting
When zAvg enters an extreme zone (typically above +2 or below -2), the background shifts color to reflect the market’s intensity. These changes aren’t overwhelming—they’re light fills that act as ambient warnings, helping you stay aware of when price might be reaching a tipping point.
6. Customizable Zone Lines and Fills
You can define what counts as neutral, overbought, and oversold using manual inputs. Horizontal lines show your thresholds, and shaded regions highlight the most extreme zones (+2 to +3 and -2 to -3). These lines give you visual structure to understand where price currently stands in relation to your personal reversal model.
7. Modular Indicator Control
You don’t have to use all the indicators. You can enable or disable any of the 12 with a simple checkbox. This means you can build your own “blend” of market context—maybe you only care about RSI, price, and volume. Or maybe you want everything on. The script adapts accordingly, only averaging what you select.
8. Fully Customizable Sensitivity and Lengths
You can adjust the Z-score lookback length globally (default 100), and tweak individual indicator lengths separately. This lets you tune the indicator’s responsiveness to suit your trading style—slower for longer swings, faster for scalping.
9. Clean Integration with Any Chart Layout
All visual elements are designed to be informative without taking over your chart. The coloring is soft but clear, the labels are readable without being huge, and you can turn off any feature you don’t need. The indicator can work as a full dashboard or as a simple line with a couple of alerts—it’s up to you.
10. Precise, Real-Time Signal Logic
The crossover logic for signals is exact and only fires when the Z-score moves across your defined boundary. No estimation, no delay. Everything is calculated based on current and previous bar data, and nothing repaints or back-adjusts.
Conclusion
The Universal Z-Score Valuation indicator is a tool for traders who want a clear, unbiased way to detect overextension. Instead of relying on a single signal, you get a composite of several market perspectives—momentum, volatility, volume, and more—all standardized into a single view. The script gives you the freedom to control the logic, the visuals, and the components. Whether you use it as a confirmation tool or a primary signal source, it’s designed to give you clarity when markets become chaotic.

Volume Momentum [BackQuant]Volume Momentum
The Volume Momentum indicator is designed to help traders identify shifts in market momentum based on volume data. By analyzing the relative volume momentum, this indicator provides insights into whether the market is gaining strength (uptrend) or losing momentum (downtrend). The strategy uses a combination of percentile-based volume normalization, weighted moving averages (WMA), and exponential moving averages (EMA) to assess volume trends.
The system focuses on the relationship between price and volume, utilizing normalized volume data to highlight key market changes. This approach allows traders to focus on volume-driven price movements, helping them to capture momentum shifts early.
Key Features
1. Volume Normalization and Percentile Calculation:
The signed volume (positive when the close is higher than the open, negative when the close is lower) is normalized against the rolling average volume. This normalized volume is then subjected to a percentile interpolation, allowing for a robust statistical measure of how the current volume compares to historical data. The percentile level is customizable, with 50 representing the median.
2. Weighted and Smoothed Moving Averages for Trend Detection:
The normalized volume is smoothed using weighted moving averages (WMA) and exponential moving averages (EMA). These smoothing techniques help eliminate noise, providing a clearer view of the underlying momentum. The WMA filters out short-term fluctuations, while the EMA ensures that the most recent data points have a higher weight, making the system more responsive to current market conditions.
3. Trend Reversal Detection:
The indicator detects momentum shifts by evaluating whether the volume momentum crosses above or below zero. A positive volume momentum indicates a potential uptrend, while a negative momentum suggests a possible downtrend. These trend reversals are identified through crossover and crossunder conditions, triggering alerts when significant changes occur.
4. Dynamic Trend Background and Bar Coloring:
The script offers customizable background coloring based on the trend direction. When volume momentum is positive, the background is colored green, indicating a bullish trend. When volume momentum is negative, the background is colored red, signaling a bearish trend. Additionally, the bars themselves can be colored based on the trend, further helping traders quickly visualize market momentum.
5. Alerts for Momentum Shifts:
The system provides real-time alerts for traders to monitor when volume momentum crosses a critical threshold (zero), signaling a trend reversal. The alerts notify traders when the market momentum turns bullish or bearish, assisting them in making timely decisions.
6. Customizable Parameters for Flexible Usage:
Users can fine-tune the behavior of the indicator by adjusting various parameters:
Volume Rolling Mean: The period used to calculate the average volume for normalization.
Percentile Interpolation Length: Defines the range over which the percentile is calculated.
Percentile Level: Determines the percentile threshold (e.g., 50 for the median).
WMA and Smoothing Periods: Control the smoothing and response time of the indicator.
7. Trend Background Visualization and Trend-Based Bar Coloring:
The background fill is shaded according to whether the volume momentum is positive or negative, providing a visual cue to indicate market strength. Additionally, bars can be color-coded to highlight the trend, making it easier to see the trend’s direction without needing to analyze numerical data manually.
8. Note on Mean-Reversion Strategy:
If you take the inverse of the signals, this indicator can be adapted for a mean-reversion strategy. Instead of following the trend, the strategy would involve buying assets that are underperforming and selling assets that are overperforming, based on volume momentum. However, it’s important to note that this approach may not work effectively on highly correlated assets, as their price movements may be too similar, reducing the effectiveness of the mean-reversion strategy.
Final Thoughts
The Volume Momentum indicator offers a comprehensive approach to analyzing volume-based momentum shifts in the market. By using volume normalization, percentile interpolation, and smoothed moving averages, this system helps identify the strength and direction of market trends. Whether used for trend-following or adapted for mean-reversion, this tool provides traders with actionable insights into the market’s volume-driven movements, improving decision-making and portfolio management.
PCA Regime-Adjusted MomentumSummary
The PCA Regime-Adjusted Momentum (PCA-RAM) is an advanced market analysis tool designed to provide nuanced insights into market momentum and structural stability. It moves beyond traditional indicators by using Principal Component Analysis (PCA) to deconstruct market data into its most essential patterns.
The indicator provides two key pieces of information:
A smoothed momentum signal based on the market's dominant underlying trend.
A dynamic regime filter that gauges the stability and clarity of the market's structure, advising you when to trust or fade the momentum signals.
This allows traders to not only identify potential shifts in momentum but also to understand the context and confidence behind those signals.
Core Concepts & Methodology
The strength of this indicator lies in its sound, data-driven methodology.
1. Principal Component Analysis (PCA)
At its core, the indicator analyzes a rolling window (default 50 periods) of standardized market data (Open, High, Low, Close, and Volume). PCA is a powerful statistical technique that distills this complex, 5-dimensional data into its fundamental, uncorrelated components of variance. We focus on the First Principal Component (PC1), which represents the single most dominant pattern or "theme" driving the market's behavior in the lookback window.
2. The Momentum Signal
Instead of just looking at price, we project the current market data onto this dominant underlying pattern (PC1). This gives us a raw "projection score" that measures how strongly the current bar aligns with the historically dominant market structure. This raw score is then smoothed using two an exponential moving averages (a fast and a slow line) to create a clear, actionable momentum signal, similar in concept to a MACD.
3. The Dynamic Regime Filter
This is arguably the indicator's most powerful feature. It answers the question: "How clear is the current market picture?"
It calculates the Market Concentration Ratio, which is the percentage of total market variance explained by PC1 alone.
A high ratio indicates that the market is moving in a simple, one-dimensional way (e.g., a clear, strong trend).
A low ratio indicates the market is complex, multi-dimensional, and choppy, with no single dominant theme.
Crucially, this filter is dynamic. It compares the current concentration ratio to its own recent average, allowing it to adapt to any asset or timeframe. It automatically learns what "normal" and "choppy" look like for the specific chart you are viewing.
How to Interpret the Indicator
The indicator is displayed in a separate pane with two key visual elements:
The Momentum Lines (White & Gold)
White Line: The "Fast Line," representing the current momentum.
Gold Line: The "Slow Line," acting as the trend confirmation.
Bullish Signal: A crossover of the White Line above the Gold Line suggests a shift to positive momentum.
Bearish Signal: A crossover of the White Line below the Gold Line suggests a shift to negative momentum.
The Regime Filter (Purple & Dark Red Background)
This is your confidence gauge.
Navy Blue Background (High Concentration): The market structure is stable, simple, and trending. Momentum signals are more reliable and should be given higher priority.
Dark Red Background (Low Concentration): The market structure is complex, choppy, or directionless. Momentum signals are unreliable and prone to failure or "whipsaws." This is a signal to be cautious, tighten stops, or potentially stay out of the market.
Potential Trading Strategies
This tool is versatile and can be used in several ways:
1. Primary Signal Strategy
Condition: Wait for the background to turn Purple, confirming a stable, high-confidence regime.
Entry: Take the next crossover signal from the momentum lines (White over Gold for long, White under Gold for short).
Exit/Filter: Consider exiting positions or ignoring new signals when the background turns Navy.
2. As a Confirmation or Filter for Your Existing Strategy
Do you have a trend-following system? Only enable its long and short signals when the PCA-RAM background is Purple.
Do you have a range-trading or mean-reversion system? It might be most effective when the PCA-RAM background is Navy, indicating a lack of a clear trend.
3. Advanced Divergence Analysis
Look for classic divergences between price and the momentum lines. For example, if the price is making a new high, but the Gold Line is making a lower high, it may indicate underlying weakness in the trend, even on a Purple background. This divergence signal is more powerful because it shows that the new price high is not being confirmed by the market's dominant underlying pattern.

IDX - 5UPThe UDX-5UP is a custom indicator designed to assist traders in identifying trends, entry and exit signals, and market reversal moments with greater accuracy. It combines price analysis, volume, and momentum (RSI) to provide clear buy ("Buy") and sell ("Sell") signals across any asset and timeframe, whether you're a scalper on the 5M chart or a swing trader on the 4H chart. Inspired by robust technical analysis strategies, the UDX-5UP is ideal for traders seeking a reliable tool to operate in volatile markets such as cryptocurrencies, forex, stocks, and futures.
Components of the UDX-5UP
The UDX-5UP consists of three main panels that work together to provide a comprehensive view of the market:
Main Panel (Price):
Pivot Supertrend: A dynamic line that changes color to indicate the trend. Green for an uptrend (look for buys), red for a downtrend (look for sells).
SMAs (Simple Moving Averages): Two SMAs (8 and 21 periods) to confirm the trend direction. When the SMA 8 crosses above the SMA 21, it’s a bullish signal; when it crosses below, it’s a bearish signal.
Entry/Exit Signals: "Buy" (green) and "Sell" (red) labels are plotted on the chart when entry or exit conditions are met.
Volume Panel:
Colored Volume Bars: Green bars indicate dominant buying volume, while red bars indicate dominant selling volume.
Volume Moving Average (MA 20): A blue line that helps identify whether the current volume is above or below the average, confirming the strength of the movement.
RSI Panel:
RSI (Relative Strength Index): Calculated with a period of 14, with overbought (70) and oversold (30) lines to identify momentum extremes.
Divergences: The indicator detects divergences between the RSI and price, plotting signals for potential reversals.
How the UDX-5UP Works
The UDX-5UP uses a combination of rules to generate buy and sell signals:
Buy Signal ("Buy"):
The Pivot Supertrend changes from red to green.
The SMA 8 crosses above the SMA 21.
The volume is above the MA 20, with green bars (indicating buying pressure).
The RSI is rising and, ideally, below 70 (not overbought).
Example: On the 4H chart, the price of Tether (USDT) is at 0.05515. The Pivot Supertrend turns green, the SMA 8 crosses above the SMA 21, the volume shows green bars above the MA 20, and the RSI is at 46. The UDX-5UP plots a "Buy".
Sell Signal ("Sell"):
The Pivot Supertrend changes from green to red.
The SMA 8 crosses below the SMA 21.
The volume is above the MA 20, with red bars (indicating selling pressure).
The RSI is falling and, ideally, above 70 (overbought).
Example: On the 4H chart, the price of Tether rises to 0.05817. The Pivot Supertrend turns red, the SMA 8 crosses below the SMA 21, the volume shows red bars, and the RSI is above 70. The UDX-5UP plots a "Sell".
RSI Divergences:
The indicator identifies bullish divergences (price makes a lower low, but RSI makes a higher low) and bearish divergences (price makes a higher high, but RSI makes a lower high), plotting alerts for potential reversals.
Adjustable Settings
The UDX-5UP is highly customizable to suit your trading style:
Pivot Supertrend Period: Default is 2. Increase to 3 or 4 for more conservative signals (fewer false positives, but more lag).
SMA Periods: Default is 8 and 21. Adjust to 5 and 13 for smaller timeframes (e.g., 5M) or 13 and 34 for larger timeframes (e.g., 1D).
RSI Period: Default is 14. Reduce to 10 for greater sensitivity or increase to 20 for smoother signals.
Overbought/Oversold Levels: Default is 70/30. Adjust to 80/20 in volatile markets.
Display Panels: You can enable/disable the volume and RSI panels to simplify the chart.
How to Use the UDX-5UP
Identify the Trend:
Use the Pivot Supertrend and SMAs to determine the market direction. Uptrend: look for buys. Downtrend: look for sells.
Confirm with Volume and RSI:
For buys: Volume above the MA 20 with green bars, RSI rising and below 70.
For sells: Volume above the MA 20 with red bars, RSI falling and above 70.
Enter the Trade:
Enter a buy when the UDX-5UP plots a "Buy" and all conditions are aligned.
Enter a sell when the UDX-5UP plots a "Sell" and all conditions are aligned.
Plan the Exit:
Use Fibonacci levels or support/resistance on the price chart to set targets.
Exit the trade when the UDX-5UP plots an opposite signal ("Sell" after a buy, "Buy" after a sell).
Tips for Beginners
Start with Larger Timeframes: Use the 4H or 1D chart for more reliable signals and less noise.
Combine with Other Indicators: Use the UDX-5UP with tools like Fibonacci or the Candles RSI (another powerful indicator) to confirm signals.
Practice in Demo Mode: Test the indicator in a demo account before using real money.
Manage Risk: Always use a stop-loss and don’t risk more than 1-2% of your capital per trade.
Why Use the UDX-5UP?
Simplicity: Clear "Buy" and "Sell" signals make trading accessible even for beginners.
Versatility: Works on any asset (crypto, forex, stocks) and timeframe.
Multiple Confirmations: Combines price, volume, and momentum to reduce false signals.
Customizable: Adjust the settings to match your trading style.

TrendPredator FOTrendPredator Fakeout Highlighter (FO)
The TrendPredator Fakeout Highlighter is designed to enhance multi-timeframe trend analysis by identifying key market behaviors that indicate trend strength, weakness, and potential reversals. Inspired by Stacey Burke’s trading approach, this tool focuses on trend-following, momentum shifts, and trader traps, helping traders capitalize on high-probability setups.
At its core, this indicator highlights peak formations—anchor points where price often locks in trapped traders before making decisive moves. These principles align with George Douglas Taylor’s 3-day cycle and Steve Mauro’s BTMM method, making the FO Highlighter a powerful tool for reading market structure. As markets are fractal, this analysis works on any timeframe.
How It Works
The TrendPredator FO highlights key price action signals by coloring candles based on their bias state on the current timeframe.
It tracks four major elements:
Breakout/Breakdown Bars – Did the candle close in a breakout or breakdown relative to the last candle?
Fakeout Bars (Trend Close) – Did the candle break a prior high/low and close back inside, but still in line with the trend?
Fakeout Bars (Counter-Trend Close) – Did the candle break a prior high/low, close back inside, and against the trend?
Switch Bars – Did the candle lose/ reclaim the breakout/down level of the last bar that closed in breakout/down, signalling a possible trend shift?
Reading the Trend with TrendPredator FO
The annotations in this example are added manually for illustration.
- Breakouts → Strong Trend
Multiple candles closing in breakout signal a healthy and strong trend.
- Fakeouts (Trend Close) → First Signs of Weakness
Candles that break out but close back inside suggest a potential slowdown—especially near key levels.
- Fakeouts (Counter-Trend Close) → Stronger Reversal Signal
Closing against the trend strengthens the reversal signal.
- Switch Bars → Momentum Shift
A shift in trend is confirmed when price crosses back through the last closed breakout candles breakout level, trapping traders and fuelling a move in the opposite direction.
- Breakdowns → Trend Reversal Confirmed
Once price breaks away from the peak formation, closing in breakdown, the trend shift is validated.
Customization & Settings
- Toggle individual candle types on/off
- Customize colors for each signal
- Set the number of historical candles displayed
Example Use Cases
1. Weekly Template Analysis
The weekly template is a core concept in Stacey Burke’s trading style. FO highlights individual candle states. With this the state of the trend and the developing weekly template can be evaluated precisely. The analysis is done on the daily timeframe and we are looking especially for overextended situations within a week, after multiple breakouts and for peak formations signalling potential reversals. This is helpful for thesis generation before a session and also for backtesting. The annotations in this example are added manually for illustration.
📈 Example: Weekly Template Analysis snapshot on daily timeframe
2. High Timeframe 5-Star Setup Analysis (Stacey Burke "ain't coming back" ACB Template)
This analysis identifies high-probability trade opportunities when daily breakout or down closes occur near key monthly levels mid-week, signalling overextensions and potentially large parabolic moves. Key signals for this are breakout or down closes occurring on a Wednesday. This is helpful for thesis generation before a session and also for backtesting. The annotations in this example are added manually for illustration. Also an indicator can bee seen on this chart shading every Wednesday to identify the signal.
📉 Example: High Timeframe Setup snapshot
3. Low Timeframe Entry Confirmation
FO helps confirm entry signals after a setup is identified, allowing traders to time their entries and exits more precisely. For this the highlighted Switch and/ or Fakeout bars can be highly valuable.
📊 Example (M15 Entry & Exit): Entry and Exit Confirmation snapshot
📊 Example (M5 Scale-In Strategy): Scaling Entries snapshot

Neon Momentum Waves StrategyIntroduction
The Neon Momentum Waves Strategy is a momentum-based indicator designed to help traders visualize potential shifts in market direction. It builds upon a MACD-style calculation while incorporating an enhanced visual representation of momentum waves. This approach may assist traders in identifying areas of increasing or decreasing momentum, potentially aligning with market trends or reversals.
How It Works
This strategy is based on a modified MACD (Moving Average Convergence Divergence) method, calculating the difference between two Exponential Moving Averages (EMAs). The momentum wave represents this difference, while an additional smoothing line (signal line) helps highlight potential momentum shifts.
Key Components:
Momentum Calculation:
Uses a fast EMA (12-period) and a slow EMA (26-period) to measure short-term and long-term momentum.
A signal line (20-period EMA of the MACD difference) smooths fluctuations.
The histogram (momentum wave) represents the divergence between the MACD value and the signal line.
Interpreting Momentum Changes:
Momentum Increasing: When the histogram rises above the zero line, it may indicate strengthening upward movement.
Momentum Decreasing: When the histogram moves below the zero line, it may signal a weakening trend or downward momentum.
Potential Exhaustion Points: Users can define custom threshold levels (default: ±10) to highlight when momentum is significantly strong or weak.
Visual Enhancements:
The neon glow effect is created by layering multiple plots with decreasing opacity, enhancing the clarity of momentum shifts.
Aqua-colored waves highlight upward momentum, while purple waves represent downward momentum.
Horizontal reference lines mark the zero line and user-defined thresholds to improve interpretability.
How It Differs from Traditional Indicators
Improved Visualization: Unlike standard MACD histograms, this approach provides clearer visual cues using a neon-style wave format.
Customizable Thresholds: Rather than relying solely on MACD crossovers, users can adjust sensitivity settings to better suit their trading style.
Momentum-Based Approach: The strategy is focused on visualizing shifts in momentum strength, rather than predicting price movements.
Potential Use Cases
Momentum Trend Awareness: Helps traders identify periods where momentum appears to be strengthening or fading.
Market Structure Analysis: May complement other indicators to assess whether price action aligns with momentum changes.
Flexible Timeframe Application: Can be used across different timeframes, depending on the trader’s strategy.
Important Considerations
This strategy is purely momentum-based and does not incorporate volume, fundamental factors, or price action confirmation.
Momentum shifts do not guarantee price direction changes—they should be considered alongside broader market context.
The strategy may perform differently in trending vs. ranging markets, so adjustments in sensitivity may be needed.
Risk management is essential—traders should apply proper stop-losses and position sizing techniques in line with their risk tolerance.
Conclusion
The Neon Momentum Waves Strategy provides a visually enhanced method of tracking momentum, allowing traders to observe potential changes in market strength. While not a predictive tool, it serves as a complementary indicator that may help traders in momentum-based decision-making. As with any technical tool, it should be used as part of a broader strategy that considers multiple factors in market analysis.

Blockchain Fundamentals: Liquidity Cycle MomentumLiquidity Cycle Momentum Indicator
Overview:
This indicator analyzes global liquidity trends by calculating a unique Liquidity Index and measuring its year-over-year (YoY) percentage change. It then applies a momentum oscillator to the YoY change, providing insights into the cyclical momentum of liquidity. The indicator incorporates a limited historical data workaround to ensure accurate calculations even when the chart’s history is short.
Features Breakdown:
1. Limited Historical Data Workaround
Function: The limit(length) function adjusts the lookback period when there isn’t enough historical data (i.e., near the beginning of the chart), ensuring that calculations do not break due to insufficient data.
2. Global Liquidity Calculation
Data Sources:
TVC:CN10Y (10-year yield from China)
TVC:DXY (US Dollar Index)
ECONOMICS:USCBBS (US Central Bank Balance Sheet)
FRED:JPNASSETS (Japanese assets)
ECONOMICS:CNCBBS (Chinese Central Bank Balance Sheet)
FRED:ECBASSETSW (ECB assets)
Calculation Methodology:
A ratio is computed (cn10y / dxy) to adjust for currency influences.
The Liquidity Index is then derived by multiplying this ratio with the sum of the other liquidity components.
3. Year-over-Year (YoY) Percent Change
Computation:
The indicator determines the number of bars that approximately represent one year.
It then compares the current Liquidity Index to its value one year ago, calculating the YoY percentage change.
4. Momentum Oscillator on YoY Change
Oscillator Components:
1. Calculated using the Chande Momentum Oscillator (CMO) applied to the YoY percent change with a user-defined momentum length.
2. A weighted moving average (WMA) that smooths the momentum signal.
3. Overbought and Oversold zones
Signal Generation:
Buy Signal: Triggered when the momentum crosses upward from an oversold condition, suggesting a potential upward shift in liquidity momentum.
Sell Signal: Triggered when crosses below an overbought condition, indicating potential downward momentum.
State Management:
The indicator maintains a state variable to avoid repeated signals, ensuring that a new buy or sell signal is only generated when there’s a clear change in momentum.
5. Visual Presentation and Alerts
Plots:
The oscillator value and signalline are plotted for visual analysis.
Overbought and oversold levels are marked with dashed horizontal lines.
Signal Markers:
Buy and sell signals are marked with green and maroon circles, respectively.
Background Coloration:
Optionally, the chart’s background bars are colored (yellow for buy signals and fuchsia for sell signals) to enhance visual cues when signals are triggered.
Conclusion
In summary, the Liquidity Cycle Momentum Indicator provides a robust framework to analyze liquidity trends by combining global liquidity data, YoY changes, and momentum oscillation. This makes it an effective tool for traders and analysts looking to identify cyclical shifts in liquidity conditions and potential turning points in the market.
