ICSM (Impulse-Correction & SCOB Mapper) [WinWorld]DESCRIPTION
ICSM (Impulse-Correction SCOB Mapper) is the indicator that analyzes the price movement and identifies valid impulses, corrections and SCOBs. It is a powerful tool that can be used with any type of technical analysis because it's flexible, informative, easy to use and it does substantially improve trader's awareness of the most liquid zones of interest.

IMPORTANT CONCEPTS
In order to fully understand what ICSM can do, let's do a quick overview of the most important concepts that this indicator is built on.
By ICM we mean the liquidity grabbing of Impulse-Correction Mapper's lines (ICM lines; represented as dashed horizontal lines on the chart ). Saying shortly, liquidity grabs of ICM lines posses great opportunities for finding great entries.
SCOB (Single Candle Order Block) builds up by 3 simple rules:
Previous candle's liquidity is grabbed;
Current candle closes inside previous candle;
Imbalance occurs on the next candle.
SCOB is a quite useful zone of interest, from which the price usually reverses. You can also use SCOB as POI* on HTF** or as entry zone on LTF***.
* POI — Point Of Interest
* HTF — Higher TimeFrame
* LTF — Lower TimeFrame
"ICM+SCOB" is a short name that we use for event, at which price first grabs the liquidity from ICM line and then creates a SCOB at the same impulse/correction movement ( on the same ICM line, that does the liquidity grab ). Usually the SCOB that occurs after this event represents a highly liquid zone of interest , which should be considered when choosing entry level.
"ICM+SCOB (same candle)" is basically the same as "ICM+SCOB" event but with one major difference — the candle, which grabs the liquidity of ICM line, is also the candle at which the SCOB occurs, making such SCOB an even better zone of interest than a regular SCOB from ICM+SCOB event.
BIGGEST ADVANTAGES
ICSM precisely identifies impulses and corrections. Huge load of indicators on the TradingView does only show the simplest zones of interests, while ICSM uses our team's signature algorithms to precisely identify true impulses and corrections in the market, allowing traders to see both local and global price direction better and at the same time providing traders with the most liquid zones of interest;
ICSM shows points of interest and liquidity. The indicator identifies the nearest points of interest and zones, where the liquidity is concentrated, allowing you to find great entry and exit points for your trades;
ICSM has SCOB (Single Candle Order Block) detection function. ICM is packed with the extremely useful in SMC trading SCOB detetction feature, which allows you find even more solid points of interest;
ICSM has super minimalistic design, which contains only the things you really need. Your chart will not be overloaded with unnecessary information. You will only see clear points of interest, liquidity and price movement.
WHY SHOULD YOU USE IT?
As was said above, ICSM allows you to see the most profitable points and zones of interest, which professional SMC traders consider as one of the best in the market, because they are historically the areas from which the price bounces the most, allowing the smartest traders to get quick an clean profits with low drawdown.
In the ICSM indicator these zones are SCOB and ICM line liquidity grabs. By using these zones of interest to find entry points, you increase the chance to open a trade at the most lucrative price and reduce trading risks.
Considering what was said above, this indicator can help traders reduce drawdown risks and increase potential profits simply by showing the most liquid zones of interest, which are perfect for opening a trading position.
Here are some of the examples of how you leverage ICSM in your trading process:
Example of the short trade:
Price shows overall short trend. Trend liquidity is being formed.
Price grabs liduiqity from three ICM lines in a row and then creates a long SCOB at the end of 3rd liquidity grab.
SCOB, which occured at the end of ICM line, represents much stronger zone of interest than a regular SCOB. In this case it represents a zone, which we will use to find an entry.
The entry for the trade will be SCOB candle's low, stop-loss target should be put above SCOB candle's high. Our take-profit target is trend liquidity. See the screenshot above for better understanding.
▼ Now let's see the long trade example. ▼
Example of the long trade:
Price creates trend liquidity by showing equal highs ( EQH ).
Price grabs liduiqity from four ICM lines in a row and then creates a long SCOB at the end of 4th liquidity grab.
Again: SCOB, which occured at the end of ICM line, represents much stronger zone of interest than a regular SCOB. In this case it represents a zone, which we will use to find an entry.
The entry for the trade will be SCOB candle's high, stop-loss target should be put below SCOB candle's low. Our take-profit target is EQH. See the screenshot above for better understanding.
ALERTS
ICSM provides simple and easy alert customization, allwoing to choose only the alerts you want to receive. You can choose from the following alert options:
ICM — impulse or correction liquidity grab;
SCOB — SCOB is formed, wether or not the liquidity is grabbed from the impulse or correction;
SCOB+ICM — SCOB is formed after grabbing the liquidity of the ICM line;
SCOB+ICM (same candle) — SCOB is formed in the liquidity area of the impulse or correction.
HOW CAN I GET THE MOST OUT OF IT?
ICSM displays only the first liquidity of an impulse or correction, which matches the IDM (Inducement) in the Advanced SMC strategy . This strategy is completely covered in the World Class SMC indicator and is available for free for PDF in three parts.
You can also ICSM with any other strategy, because ICSM is a very flexible indicator and will help anyone improve their trading by making one aware of the high-quality liquidity on the chart.
Let's see how you can leverage ICSM with our World Class SMC indicator and other different strategies:
Example of the long & short trades with World Class SMC.
Long (1-3):
Price reached previous OB-EXT . This is the first sign for the potential price reversal;
ICM+SCOB happened after price reached OB-EXT;
After that, you can need to look for an entry on LTF. If you don't know how to do it, you can refer to our education materials.
Short (4-6):
Price reached OB-IDM , which is also a great sign for a potential upcoming price reversal;
ICM+SCOB occured after liquidity grab of the previous SCOB. This fact does strengthen the probability of the potential upcoming price reversal;
Now you need to switch to LTF and find an entry there.
Example of the short trade with simple Fibonacci retracement strategy.
Price grabs the liquidity of the ICM lines three times in a row, forming SCOB after the 3rd grab;
Price performs correctional move down without testing the SCOB, leaving no entry opportunity by our initial strategy, so we can add another strategy — Fibonacci retracement from 0.618 level — to our analysis in order to find an entry ;
We use Fibonacci grid with our initial strategy to find the best POI, that will align with the trend direction and will eventually become our entry point.
SUMMARY
ICSM is a unique indicator that indentifies zones and points of interests with high-quiality liquidity and can be both a stand-alone tool and can be integrated into any other strategy to increase the efficiency of analysis, accuracy of trading entries and reduce trading risks.
If you want to learn the SMC strategies that our team uses in our products, you can refer to our educational materials.
We hope that you will find a great use of ICSM and it will help you improve your perfomance as a trader. Best of luck, traders!

By combining these indicators, the script delivers a robust tool for identifying market extremes and potential reversal points.
## Key Indicators
__________________________________________________________________________________
Macroeconomic Data: The script combines several relevant macroeconomic indicators for Bitcoin, such as the 10-month EMA, M2 money supply, CVDD, Pi Cycle, NUPL, PUELL, MRVR Z-Scores, and Hash Ribbons (Full description bellow).
Open Source Sources: Most of the scripts used are sourced from open-source projects that I have modified to meet the specific needs of this script.
Recommended Timeframes: For optimal performance, it is recommended to use this script on timeframes ranging from 1 day to 1 week.
Objective: The primary goal is to provide a probabilistic solution to identify market excesses, whether overbought or oversold points.
## Originality and Purpose
__________________________________________________________________________________
This script stands out by integrating multiple macroeconomic indicators into a single comprehensive tool. Each indicator is carefully selected and customized to provide insights into different aspects of the Bitcoin market. By combining these indicators, the script offers a holistic view of market conditions, helping traders identify potential tops and bottoms with greater accuracy. This is the first version of the script, and additional macroeconomic indicators will be added in the future based on user feedback and other inputs.
## How It Works
__________________________________________________________________________________
The script works by plotting each macroeconomic indicator on a single chart, allowing users to visualize and interpret the data easily. Here’s a detailed look at how each indicator contributes to the analysis:
EMA 10 Monthly: Uses an exponential moving average over 10 monthly periods to signal bullish and bearish trends. This indicator helps identify long-term trends in the Bitcoin market by smoothing out price fluctuations to reveal the underlying trend direction.Moving Averages w/ 18 day/week/month.

M2 Money Supply: Analyzes the evolution of global money supply, indicating market liquidity conditions. This indicator tracks the changes in the total amount of money available in the economy, which can impact Bitcoin’s value as a hedge against inflation or economic instability.
Credit to @dylanleclair
CVDD (Cumulative Value Days Destroyed): An indicator based on the cumulative value of days destroyed, useful for identifying market turning points. This metric helps assess the Bitcoin market’s health by evaluating the age and value of coins that are moved, indicating potential shifts in market sentiment.
Credit to @Da_Prof
Pi Cycle: Uses simple and exponential moving averages to detect potential sell points. This indicator aims to identify cyclical peaks in Bitcoin’s price, providing signals for potential market tops.
Credit to @NoCreditsLeft
NUPL (Net Unrealized Profit/Loss): Measures investors’ unrealized profit or loss to signal extreme market levels. This indicator shows the net profit or loss of Bitcoin holders as a percentage of the market cap, helping to identify periods of significant market optimism or pessimism.
Credit to @Da_Prof
PUELL Multiple: Assesses mining profitability relative to historical averages to indicate buying or selling opportunities. This indicator compares the daily issuance value of Bitcoin to its yearly average, providing insights into when the market is overbought or oversold based on miner behavior.
Credit to @Da_Prof
MRVR Z-Scores: Compares market value to realized value to identify overbought or oversold conditions. This metric helps gauge the overall market sentiment by comparing Bitcoin’s market value to its realized value, identifying potential reversal points.
Credit to @Pinnacle_Investor
Hash Ribbons: Uses hash rate variations to signal buying opportunities based on miner capitulation and recovery. This indicator tracks the health of the Bitcoin network by analyzing hash rate trends, helping to identify periods of miner capitulation and subsequent recoveries as potential buying opportunities.

Liquidity Founder The Liquidity Swings indicator aids traders in detecting liquidity swings within the market, providing essential insights for making well-informed trading decisions. Key features include:
How this Indicator work - this indicator search pivot point that is used to determine the levels at which price may face support or resistance. The Pivot Points indicator consists of a pivot point (PP) level and several support (S) and resistance (R) levels. if input number of bar selected 3 than it will look back 3 candle and wait for next 3 candle to make pivot high and low after it identify pivot it draw a line and extend until it no longer intersects with the high or low prices
What is different in my indicator compared to a normal pivot point and what Makes This Indicator Original :
1) Swing High and Low Logic:It avoids marking consecutive pivot highs until a new pivot low is formed, reducing market noise and highlighting significant trend reversals.
2)Volume Integration: By incorporating volume data, the indicator ensures that pivot points are validated with sufficient market activity, enhancing their reliability as support and resistance levels.
3) Multi-Time Frame Analysis:The ability to input and analyze multiple time frames allows the indicator to draw strong support and resistance levels that are relevant across different trading periods, making it versatile for various trading strategies.
🟠 Liquidity Swings indicator
✅Visualization of Liquidity Zones:Accumulation Areas: Identifying regions where liquidity is gathering.liquidity Sweeps: Pinpointing areas where liquidity is being cleared.
✅Pivot and Volume Analysis:Price Pivots: Monitoring significant pivots in price.
Volume Correlation: Linking price pivots with volume to highlight zones of potential support and resistance.
✅Market Dynamics Understanding:Enables traders to visualize and understand market dynamics more effectively.Assists in pinpointing potential support and resistance levels based on liquidity swings.
⭐Example -EurUsd 1 minutes chart developed Potential Support and Resistance Zone
⭐⭐⭐Key Features:
1) Adjustable Time Frame: Allows traders to analyze different periods by modifying the time frame setting.
2) Swing Look back Period: Sets the period for identifying potential price swings, enhancing flexibility in analysis.
🟠 Understanding Strong Support :These are identified by dense clusters of green lines, indicating high concentrations of buy orders that have not yet been executed. These areas suggest strong buying interest which can potentially halt further price declines.
⭐ Example -below chart image BtcUsd 5 minutes 2 line are still not touched by price
⭐⭐⭐Reasons for Strong Support:
✅Untouched Liquidity Lines: These green lines represent pending buy orders, indicating robust buying interest at these levels.
✅Accumulation of Orders: Many buy orders are aggregated in these zones, capable of preventing further price drops when approached.
✅ Historical Performance: These areas have previously prevented price declines, establishing them as reliable support zones.
✅ Market Confidence: Close clustering of green lines signifies widespread trader belief in favorable buying conditions, reinforcing support strength.
🟠 Understanding Strong Resistance :Highlighted by dense clusters of red lines, denoting substantial sell orders that did not executed. These zones signify significant selling interest which can impede further price increases.
⭐ Example -below chart image Btcusd 3 minutes 3 line did touched by price previously .price touched that area and retraced because of unfilled liquidity
⭐⭐⭐ Reasons for Strong Support:
✅ Untouched Liquidity Lines: These green lines represent pending buy orders, indicating robust buying interest at these levels.
✅ Accumulation of Orders: Many buy orders are aggregated in these zones, capable of preventing further price drops when approached.
✅ Historical Performance: These areas have previously prevented price declines, establishing them as reliable support zones.
✅ Market Confidence: Close clustering of green lines signifies widespread trader belief in favorable buying conditions, reinforcing support strength.
⭐⭐⭐ Usage of the Liquidity Founder Indicator ⭐⭐⭐
👍 Identifying Liquidity Zones: Pinpoints areas with dense clusters of pending buy (green) or sell (red) orders, providing initial entry points where significant buying or selling interest is concentrated.
👍 Avoiding Market Traps: Helps traders steer clear of market fluctuations or false breakouts by focusing on stable liquidity zones.
How to Use this indicator for Maximum benefit -
1) When the price approaches a cluster of resistance levels, traders should look for a candle showing rejection (e.g., a bearish reversal candle) to enter a short trade.
2)When the price approaches a cluster of support levels, traders should look for a candle showing rejection (e.g., a bullish reversal candle) to enter a long trade.
3) The identified liquidity levels offer a clear understanding of significant support and resistance areas, helping traders make more informed trading decisions.
4) Fake breakouts above resistance or below support clusters. If the price breaks above resistance and then falls back below, it can be a signal to enter a short trade vice versa if price break support cluster and back again above support cluster it can be a long trade

Support and Resistance Breakouts By RICHIESupport and resistance are fundamental concepts in technical analysis used to identify price levels on charts that act as barriers, preventing the price of an asset from getting pushed in a certain direction. Here’s a detailed description of each and how breakout strategies are typically used:
Support
Support is a price level where a downtrend can be expected to pause due to a concentration of demand. As the price of an asset drops, it hits a level where buyers tend to step in, causing the price to rebound.
Support Level Identification: Support levels are identified by looking at historical data where prices have repeatedly fallen to a certain level but have then rebounded.
Strength of Support: The more times an asset price hits a support level without breaking below it, the stronger that support level is considered to be.
Resistance
Resistance is a price level where an uptrend can be expected to pause due to a concentration of selling interest. As the price of an asset increases, it hits a level where sellers tend to step in, causing the price to drop.
Resistance Level Identification: Resistance levels are identified by looking at historical data where prices have repeatedly risen to a certain level but have then fallen back.
Strength of Resistance: The more times an asset price hits a resistance level without breaking above it, the stronger that resistance level is considered to be.
Breakouts
A breakout occurs when the price moves above a resistance level or below a support level with increased volume. Breakouts can be significant because they suggest a change in supply and demand dynamics, often leading to strong price movements.
Breakout Above Resistance: Indicates a bullish market sentiment. Traders often interpret this as a sign to enter a long position (buy).
Breakout Below Support: Indicates a bearish market sentiment. Traders often interpret this as a sign to enter a short position (sell).
Breakout Trading Strategies
Confirmation: Wait for a candle to close beyond the support or resistance level to confirm the breakout.
Volume: Increased volume on a breakout adds credibility, suggesting that the price move is supported by strong buying or selling interest.
Retest: Sometimes, after a breakout, the price will return to the breakout level to test it as a new support or resistance. This retest offers another entry point.
Stop-Loss: Place stop-loss orders just below the resistance (for long positions) or above the support (for short positions) to limit potential losses in case of a false breakout.
Take-Profit: Identify target levels for taking profits. These can be set based on previous support/resistance levels or using tools like Fibonacci retracements.
Turbo Oscillator [RunRox]Introducing Turbo Oscillator by RunRox, our new indicator that combines a multitude of useful and unique features, which we will detail in this post.
List of Advanced Technologies:
Real-Time Divergences: Detects discrepancies between price movements and oscillator indicators to forecast potential price reversals.
Real-Time Hidden Divergences: We identify hidden divergences in real-time. These are not the standard type of divergences; they are opposite to regular divergences, providing unique insights into potential market movements.
Overbought and Oversold Zones: Identifies areas where the market is potentially overextended, suggesting possible entry and exit points.
Signal Line: Indicates the market direction, helping traders to quickly understand current trends.
Money Flow Histogram: Shows the flow of money into and out of the market, providing insights into buying and selling pressure.
Predicted Reversal Zones: Pinpoints areas where the market might experience reversals, aiding in strategic planning and risk management. These zones also serve as potential areas for taking profits, enhancing their utility for exit strategy planning.
Customizable Alerts: You can flexibly set up alerts for any events detected by our indicator, ensuring you stay informed about critical market movements.
To begin with, I would like to describe the difference between classic divergences and hidden divergences.
As you can see, these are opposite situations. Our oscillator identifies both types of divergences and displays them in real-time.
Divergences can serve as points where the price might reverse in the opposite direction, making both classic and hidden divergences powerful tools for spotting reversal points. I'll show a few examples of how divergences are used in our oscillator.
Classic Divergences - which we identify in real-time. As you can see, the price often reacts strongly to the formation of these divergences, frequently changing its direction.
Hidden Divergences - we also observe frequent movement in the opposite direction on the chart. The advantage of our indicator is that we show divergences in real-time without delays, allowing you to react immediately to trend changes.
Overbought and Oversold Zones - These zones allow you to see trend changes when the price is clearly overbought or oversold. When the color changes from a contrasting shade to a neutral one, you can observe the trend shift. The lines work by combining the positivity/negativity of the histogram, the positivity/negativity of the signal line, and the direction of the signal line (red/green). This sophisticated interaction provides precise insights into market conditions, making it an invaluable tool for traders.
Signal Line - This provides insights into trend changes and price reversals. The points on the line better indicate the beginning of a trend shift. These points can vary in size, offering a clearer understanding of the strength of the emerging trend. This feature works in combination with RSI, Stochastic, and MFI. RSI and MFI are top-tier indicators, while Stochastic adds responsiveness and sensitivity to trend changes, ensuring you capture every market movement accurately and promptly.
Money Flow Histogram - As shown in the example, our histogram displays the divergence between money flow and the actual price. You can see that while the price is rising, the money flow is decreasing, indicating insufficient demand for the asset and an imminent trend change. This feature uses MFI with an extended period, providing a more comprehensive and accurate analysis of market conditions. The extended period enhances the reliability of the Money Flow Index, making it an essential tool for identifying subtle shifts in market dynamics.
Predicted Reversal Zones - We automatically identify potential price reversal zones and display them above our overbought and oversold zones. In cases of strong overbought or oversold conditions, we detect potential price pullbacks and mark the beginning of a trend change. This helps you better identify trend shifts. We recommend considering these zones as potential take profit points for your trades.
Customizable Alerts - Our flexible alert system allows you to receive notifications only for the events you are interested in. These can include:
1. Classic Divergences
2. Hidden Divergences
3. Overbought or Oversold conditions on the status line
4. Strong Overbought or Oversold conditions on the status line
5. Signals from the signal line
6. Reversal zones in any direction
Our oscillator is a unique indicator that provides a comprehensive understanding of price movements. It can be used as a standalone tool for analyzing price action.
Here are a few examples of using our Oscillator in practice:
In the example above, you can see three conditions that have formed for a potential trade:
1. Clear overbought condition with a formed reversal point.
2. Decreasing Money Flow Index diverging from the rising price.
3. Formed classic divergence.
The entry point could be the formed divergence, while the exit point could be the overbought condition at the bottom of the oscillator along with the reversal points.
Here's another example of using hidden divergence, where you can see three conditions for a potential trade:
1. Overbought zone
2. Formed hidden divergence
3. Start of bearish movement indicated by the signal line
You can enter the trade either when the hidden divergence forms or wait for confirmation of the trend change by the signal line and enter the trade when the corresponding signal forms on the signal line. The exit point could be the opposite reversal point or the formation of a new hidden divergence.
We have demonstrated a few examples of how you can use our indicator, but we are confident that you will find many more applications in your own strategies.
Oscillator offers a variety of customizable parameters to tailor the indicator to your trading preferences. Here’s what our settings include:

It's designed for use on index charts alongside the Luxmi AI Smart Sentimeter (INDEX) indicator to enhance performance. This indicator aims to provide refined signals for option scalping strategies, optimizing trading decisions within index markets.
Understanding directional bias is crucial when trading index and index options because it helps traders align their strategies with the expected movement of the underlying index.
The Luxmi AI Filtered Option Scalping Signals (INDEX) indicator aims to simplify and expedite decision-making through comprehensive technical analysis of various data points on a chart. By leveraging advanced analysis of data points, this indicator scrutinizes multiple factors simultaneously to offer traders clear and rapid insights into market dynamics.
The indicator is specifically designed for option scalping, a trading strategy that aims to profit from short-term price fluctuations. It prioritizes signals that are conducive to quick execution and capitalizes on rapid market movements typical of scalping strategies.
Major Features:
Trend Cloud:
Working Principle:
The script utilizes the Relative Strength Index (RSI) to assess market momentum, identifying bullish and bearish phases based on RSI readings. It calculates two boolean variables, bullmove and bearmove, which signal shifts in momentum direction by considering changes in the Exponential Moving Average (EMA) of the closing price. When RSI indicates bullish momentum and the closing price's EMA exhibits positive changes, bullmove is triggered, signifying the start of a bullish phase. Conversely, when RSI suggests bearish momentum and the closing price's EMA shows negative changes, bearmove is activated, marking the beginning of a bearish phase. This systematic approach helps in understanding the current trend of the price. The script visually emphasizes these phases on the chart using plot shape markers, providing traders with clear indications of trend shifts.
Benefits of Using Trend Cloud:
Comprehensive Momentum Assessment: The script offers a holistic view of market momentum by incorporating RSI readings and changes in the closing price's EMA, enabling traders to identify both bullish and bearish phases effectively.
Structured Trend Recognition: With the calculation of boolean variables, the script provides a structured approach to recognizing shifts in momentum direction, enhancing traders' ability to interpret market dynamics.
Visual Clarity: Plotshape markers visually highlight the start and end of bullish and bearish phases on the chart, facilitating easy identification of trend shifts and helping traders to stay informed.
Prompt Response: Traders can promptly react to changing market conditions as the script triggers alerts when bullish or bearish phases begin, allowing them to seize potential trading opportunities swiftly.
Informed Decision-Making: By integrating various indicators and visual cues, the script enables traders to make well-informed decisions and adapt their strategies according to prevailing market sentiment, ultimately enhancing their trading performance.
How to use this feature:
The most effective way to maximize the benefits of this feature is to use it in conjunction with other key indicators and visual cues. By combining the color-coded clouds, which indicate bullish and bearish sentiment, with other features such as IS candles, microtrend candles, volume candles, and sentimeter candles, traders can gain a comprehensive understanding of market dynamics. For instance, aligning the color of the clouds with the trend direction indicated by IS candles, microtrend candles, and sentimeter candles can provide confirmation of trend strength or potential reversals.
Furthermore, traders can leverage the trend cloud as a trailing stop-loss tool for long entries, enhancing risk management strategies. By adjusting the stop-loss level based on the color of the cloud, traders can trail their positions to capture potential profits while minimizing losses. For long entries, maintaining the position as long as the cloud remains green can help traders stay aligned with the prevailing bullish sentiment. Conversely, a shift in color from green to red serves as a signal to exit the position, indicating a potential reversal in market sentiment and minimizing potential losses. This integration of the trend cloud as a trailing stop-loss mechanism adds an additional layer of risk management to trading strategies, increasing the likelihood of successful trades while reducing exposure to adverse market movements.
Moreover, the red cloud serves as an indicator of decay in option premiums and potential theta effect, particularly relevant for options traders. When the cloud turns red, it suggests a decline in option prices and an increase in theta decay, highlighting the importance of managing options positions accordingly. Traders may consider adjusting their options strategies, such as rolling positions or closing out contracts, to mitigate the impact of theta decay and preserve capital. By incorporating this insight into options pricing dynamics, traders can make more informed decisions about their options trades.
Scalping Cloud:
The scalping cloud serves as a specialized component within the trend cloud feature, specifically designed to pinpoint potential long and short entry points within the overarching trend cloud. Here's how it works:
Trend Identification: The trend cloud feature typically highlights the prevailing trend direction based on various technical indicators, price action, or other criteria. It visually represents the momentum and direction of the market over a given period.
Refined Entry Signals: Within this broader trend context, the scalping cloud narrows its focus to identify shorter-term trading opportunities. It does this by analyzing more granular price movements and shorter timeframes, seeking out potential entry points that align with the larger trend.
Long and Short Entries: The scalping cloud distinguishes between potential long (buy) and short (sell) entry opportunities within the trend cloud. For instance, within an uptrend indicated by the trend cloud, the scalping cloud might identify brief retracements or pullbacks as potential long entry points. Conversely, in a downtrend, it may signal short entry opportunities during temporary upward corrections.
Risk Management: By identifying potential entry points within the context of the trend, the scalping cloud also aids in risk management. Traders can use these signals to place stop-loss orders and manage their positions effectively, reducing the risk of adverse price movements.
The scalping cloud operates by analyzing the crossover and crossunder events between two key indicators: the Double Exponential Moving Average (DEMA) and a Weighted Average. Here's how it works:
Double Exponential Moving Average (DEMA): DEMA is a type of moving average that seeks to reduce lag by applying a double smoothing technique to price data. It responds more quickly to price changes compared to traditional moving averages, making it suitable for identifying short-term trends and potential trading opportunities.
Weighted Average: The weighted average calculates the average price of an asset over a specified period. However, it incorporates a weighting scheme that assigns more significance to recent price data, resulting in a more responsive indicator that closely tracks current market trends.
CE and NO CE Signals:
CE signals typically represent a Long Scalping Opportunity, suggesting that conditions are favorable for entering a long position. These signals indicate a strong upward momentum in the market, which traders can exploit for short-term gains through scalping strategies.
On the other hand, when there are no CE signals present, it doesn't necessarily mean that the trend has reversed or turned bearish. Instead, it indicates that the trend is still bullish, but the market is experiencing an active pullback. During a pullback, prices may temporarily retreat from recent highs as traders take profits or reevaluate their positions. While the overall trend remains upward, the pullback introduces a degree of uncertainty, making it less favorable for entering new long positions.
In such a scenario, traders may opt to exercise caution and refrain from entering new long positions until the pullback phase has concluded. Instead, they might consider waiting for confirmation signals, such as the resumption of CE signals or other bullish indications, before reengaging in long positions.
PE and NO PE Signals:
PE signals typically indicate a Short Entry opportunity, signaling that market conditions are conducive to entering a short position.
Conversely, when there are no PE signals present, it signifies that while the trend remains bearish, the market is currently in an active phase of consolidation or pullback. During such periods, prices may temporarily rise from recent lows, reflecting a pause in the downward momentum. While the overall trend remains downward, the absence of PE signals suggests that it may not be an optimal time to enter new short positions.
In this context, traders may exercise caution and wait for clearer signals before initiating new short positions. They might monitor the market closely for signs of a resumption in bearish momentum, such as the emergence of PE signals or other bearish indications. Alternatively, traders may choose to wait on the sidelines until market conditions stabilize or provide clearer directional signals.
Working Principle Of CE and PE Signals:
The feature calculates candlestick values based on the open, high, low, and close prices of each bar. By comparing these derived candlestick values, it determines whether the current candlestick is bullish or bearish. Additionally, it signals when there is a change in the color (bullish or bearish) of the derived candlesticks compared to the previous bar, enabling traders to identify potential shifts in market sentiment.
Micro Trend Candles:
Working Principle:
This feature begins by initializing variables to determine trend channel width and track price movements. Average True Range (ATR) is then calculated to measure market volatility, influencing the channel's size. Highs and lows are identified within a specified range, and trends are assessed based on price breaches, with potential changes signaled accordingly. The price channel is continually updated to adapt to market shifts, and arrows are placed to indicate potential entry points. Colors are assigned to represent bullish and bearish trends, dynamically adjusting based on current market conditions. Finally, candles on the chart are colored to visually depict the identified micro trend, offering traders an intuitive way to interpret market sentiment and potential entry opportunities.
Benefits of using Micro Trend Candles:
Traders can use these identified micro trends to spot potential short-term trading opportunities. For example:
Trend Following: Traders may decide to enter trades aligned with the prevailing micro trend. If the candles are consistently colored in a certain direction, traders may consider entering positions in that direction.
Reversals: Conversely, if the script signals a potential reversal by changing the candle colors, traders may anticipate trend reversals and adjust their trading strategies accordingly. For instance, they might close existing positions or enter new positions in anticipation of a trend reversal.
It's important to note that these micro trends are short-term in nature and may not always align with broader market trends. Therefore, traders utilizing this script should consider their trading timeframes and adjust their strategies accordingly.
How to use this feature:
This feature assigns colors to candles to represent bullish and bearish trends, with adjustments made based on current market conditions. Green candles accompanied by a green trend cloud signal a potential long entry, while red candles suggest caution, indicating a bearish trend. This visual representation allows traders to interpret market sentiment intuitively, identifying optimal entry points and exercising caution during potential downtrends.
Scalping Candles (Inspired by Elliott Wave and Open Interest Concepts):
Working Principle:
This feature draws inspiration from the Elliot Wave method, utilizing technical analysis techniques to discern potential market trends and sentiment shifts. It begins by calculating the variance between two Exponential Moving Averages (EMAs) of closing prices, mimicking Elliot Wave's focus on wave and trend analysis. The shorter-term EMA captures immediate price momentum, while the longer-term EMA reflects broader market trends. A smoother Exponential Moving Average (EMA) line, derived from the difference between these EMAs, aids in identifying short-term trend shifts or momentum reversals.
Benefits of using Scalping Candles Inspired by Elliott Wave:
The Elliott Wave principle is a form of technical analysis that attempts to predict future price movements by identifying patterns in market charts. It suggests that markets move in repetitive waves or cycles, and traders can potentially profit by recognizing these patterns.
While this script does not explicitly analyze Elliot Wave patterns, it is inspired by the principle's emphasis on trend analysis and market sentiment. By calculating and visualizing the difference between EMAs and assigning colors to candles based on this analysis, the script aims to provide traders with insights into potential market sentiment shifts, which can align with the broader philosophy of Elliott Wave analysis.
How to use this feature:
Candlestick colors are assigned based on the relationship between the EMA line and the variance. When the variance is below or equal to the EMA line, candles are colored red, suggesting a bearish sentiment. Conversely, when the variance is above the EMA line, candles are tinted green, indicating a bullish outlook. Though not explicitly analyzing Elliot Wave patterns, the script aligns with its principles of trend analysis and market sentiment interpretation. By offering visual cues on sentiment shifts, it provides traders with insights into potential trading opportunities, echoing Elliot Wave's emphasis on pattern recognition and trend analysis.
Chart Timeframe Support and Resistance:
Working Principle:
This feature serves to identify and visualize support and resistance levels on the chart, primarily based on the chosen Chart Timeframe (CTF). It allows users to specify parameters such as the number of bars considered on the left and right sides of each pivot point, as well as line width and label color. Moreover, users have the option to enable or disable the display of these levels. By utilizing functions to calculate pivot highs and lows within the specified timeframe, the script determines the highest high and lowest low surrounding each pivot point.
Additionally, it defines functions to create lines and labels for each detected support and resistance level. Notably, this feature incorporates a trading method that emphasizes the concept of resistance turning into support after breakouts, thereby providing valuable insights for traders employing such strategies. These lines are drawn on the chart, with colors indicating whether the level is above or below the current close price, aiding traders in visualizing key levels and making informed trading decisions.
Benefits of Chart Timeframe Support and Resistance:
Identification of Price Levels: Support and resistance levels help traders identify significant price levels where buying (support) and selling (resistance) pressure may intensify. These levels are often formed based on historical price movements and are regarded as areas of interest for traders.
Decision Making: Support and resistance levels assist traders in making informed trading decisions. By observing price reactions near these levels, traders can gauge market sentiment and adjust their strategies accordingly. For example, traders may choose to enter or exit positions, set stop-loss orders, or take profit targets based on price behavior around these levels.
Risk Management: Support and resistance levels aid in risk management by providing reference points for setting stop-loss orders. Traders often place stop-loss orders below support levels for long positions and above resistance levels for short positions to limit potential losses if the market moves against them.
How to use this feature:
Planning Long Positions: When considering long positions, it's advantageous to strategize when the price is in proximity to a support level identified by the script. This suggests a potential area of buying interest where traders may expect a bounce or reversal in price. Additionally, confirm the bullish bias by ensuring that the trend cloud is green, indicating favorable market conditions for long trades.
Waiting for Breakout: If long signals are generated near resistance levels detected by the script, exercise patience and wait for a breakout above the resistance. A breakout above resistance signifies potential strength in the upward momentum and may present a more opportune moment to enter long positions. This approach aligns with trading methodologies that emphasize confirmation of bullish momentum before initiating trades.
StopLoss and Target Lines:
In addition to generating entry signals, this indicator also incorporates predefined stop-loss ray lines and configurable risk-reward (R:R) target lines to enhance risk management and profit-taking strategies. Here's how these features work:
Predefined Stop-loss Ray Lines: The indicator automatically plots stop-loss ray lines on the chart, serving as visual guidelines for setting stop-loss levels. These stop-loss lines are predetermined based on specific criteria, such as volatility levels, support and resistance zones, or predefined risk parameters. Traders can use these lines as reference points to place their stop-loss orders, aiming to limit potential losses if the market moves against their position.
Configurable Risk-Reward (R:R) Target Lines: In addition to stop-loss lines, the indicator allows traders to set configurable risk-reward (R:R) target lines on the chart. These target lines represent predefined price levels where traders intend to take profits based on their desired risk-reward ratio. By adjusting the placement of these lines, traders can customize their risk-reward ratios according to their trading preferences and risk tolerance.
Risk Management: The predefined stop-loss ray lines help traders manage risk by providing clear exit points if the trade goes against their expectations. By adhering to these predetermined stop-loss levels, traders can minimize potential losses and protect their trading capital, thereby enhancing overall risk management.
Profit-taking Strategy: On the other hand, the configurable R:R target lines assist traders in establishing profit-taking strategies. By setting target levels based on their desired risk-reward ratio, traders can aim to capture profits at predefined price levels that offer favorable risk-reward profiles. This allows traders to systematically take profits while ensuring that potential gains outweigh potential losses over the long term.
The stop-loss and target lines incorporated in this indicator are dynamic in nature, providing traders with the flexibility to utilize them as trailing stop-loss and extended take-profit targets. Here's how these dynamic features work:
Trailing Stop-loss: Traders can employ the stop-loss lines as trailing stop-loss levels, allowing them to adjust their stop-loss orders as the market moves in their favor. As the price continues to move in the desired direction, indicator can dynamically adjust the stop-loss line to lock in profits while still allowing room for potential further gains. This trailing stop-loss mechanism helps traders secure profits while allowing their winning trades to continue running as long as the market remains favorable.
Extended Take Profit Targets: Similarly, traders can utilize the target lines as extended take-profit targets, enabling them to capture additional profits beyond their initial profit targets. By adjusting the placement of these target lines based on evolving market conditions or technical signals, traders can extend their profit-taking strategy to capitalize on potential price extensions or trend continuations. This flexibility allows traders to maximize their profit potential by capturing larger price movements while managing their risk effectively.
Rangebound Bars:
When the Rangebound Bars feature is enabled, the indicator represents candles in a distinct purple color to visually denote periods of sideways or range-bound price action. This visual cue helps traders easily identify when the market is consolidating and lacking clear directional momentum. Here's how it works:
Purple Candle Color: When the Rangebound Bars feature is active, the indicator displays candlesticks in a purple color to highlight periods of sideways price movement. This color differentiation stands out against the usual colors used for bullish (e.g., green or white) and bearish (e.g., red or black) candles, making it easier for traders to recognize range-bound conditions at a glance.
Signaling Sideways Price Action: The purple coloration of candles indicates that price movements are confined within a relatively narrow range and lack a clear upward or downward trend. This may occur when the market is consolidating, experiencing indecision, or undergoing a period of accumulation or distribution.
Working Principle:
The Rangebound Bars feature of this indicator is designed to assist traders in identifying and navigating consolidating market conditions, where price movements are confined within a relatively narrow range. This feature utilizes Pivot levels and the Average True Range (ATR) concept to determine when the market is range-bound and provides signals to stay out of such price action. Here's how it works:
Pivot Levels: Pivot levels are key price levels derived from the previous period's high, low, and closing prices. They serve as potential support and resistance levels and are widely used by traders to identify significant price levels where price action may stall or reverse. The Rangebound Bars feature incorporates Pivot levels into its analysis to identify ranges where price tends to consolidate.
Average True Range (ATR): The Average True Range is a measure of market volatility that calculates the average range between the high and low prices over a specified period. It provides traders with insights into the level of price volatility and helps set appropriate stop-loss and take-profit levels. In the context of the Rangebound Bars feature, ATR is used to gauge the extent of price fluctuations within the identified range.
Trailing Management (Zeiierman)█ Overview
The Trailing Management (Zeiierman) indicator is designed for traders who seek an automated and dynamic approach to managing trailing stops. It helps traders make systematic decisions regarding when to enter and exit trades based on the calculated risk-reward ratio. By providing a clear visual representation of trailing stop levels and risk-reward metrics, the indicator is an essential tool for both novice and experienced traders aiming to enhance their trading discipline.
The Trailing Management (Zeiierman) indicator integrates a Break-Even Curve feature to enhance its utility in trailing stop management and risk-reward optimization. The Break-Even Curve illuminates the precise point at which a trade neither gains nor loses value, offering clarity on the risk-reward landscape. Furthermore, this precise point is calculated based on the required win rate and the risk/reward ratio. This calculation aids traders in understanding the type of strategy they need to employ at any given time to be profitable. In other words, traders can, at any given point, assess the kind of strategy they need to utilize to make money, depending on the price's position within the risk/reward box.
█ How It Works
The indicator operates by computing the highest high and the lowest low over a user-defined period and then applying this information to determine optimal trailing stop levels for both long and short positions.
Directional Bias:
It establishes the direction of the market trend by comparing the index of the highest high and the lowest low within the lookback period.
Bullish
Bearish
Trailing Stop Adjustment:
The trailing stops are adjusted using one of three methods: an automatic calculation based on the median of recent peak differences, pivot points, or a fixed percentage defined by the user.
The Break-Even Curve:
The Break-Even Curve, along with the risk/reward ratio, is determined through the trailing method. This approach utilizes the current closing price as a hypothetical entry point for trades. All calculations, including those for the curve, are based on this current closing price, ensuring real-time accuracy and relevance. As market conditions fluctuate, the curve dynamically adjusts, offering traders a visual benchmark that signifies the break-even point. This real-time adjustment provides traders with an invaluable tool, allowing them to visually track how shifts in the market could impact the point at which their trades neither gain nor lose value.
Example:
Let's say the price is at the midpoint of the risk/reward box; this means that the risk/reward ratio should be 1:1, and the minimum win rate is 50% to break even.
In this example, we can see that the price is near the stop-loss level. If you are about to take a trade in this area and would respect your stop, you only need to have a minimum win rate of 11% to earn money, given the risk/reward ratio, assuming that you hold the trade to the target.
In other words, traders can, at any given point, assess the kind of strategy they need to employ to make money based on the price's position within the risk/reward box.
█ How to Use
Market Bias:
When using the Auto Bias feature, the indicator calculates the underlying market bias and displays it as either bullish or bearish. This helps traders align their trades with the underlying market trend.
Risk Management:
By observing the plotted trailing stops and the risk-reward ratios, traders can make strategic decisions to enter or exit positions, effectively managing the risk.
Strategy selection:
The Break-Even Curve is a powerful tool for managing risk, allowing traders to visualize the relationship between their trailing stops and the market's price movements. By understanding where the break-even point lies, traders can adjust their strategies to either lock in profits or cut losses.
Based on the plotted risk/reward box and the location of the price within this box, traders can easily see the win rate required by their strategy to make money in the long run, given the risk/reward ratio.
Consider this example: The market is bullish, as indicated by the bias, and the indicator suggests looking into long trades. The price is near the top of the risk/reward box, which means entering the market right now carries a huge risk, and the potential reward is very low. To take this trade, traders must have a strategy with a win rate of at least 90%.
█ Settings
Trailing Method:
Auto: The indicator calculates the trailing stop dynamically based on market conditions.
Pivot: The trailing stop is adjusted to the highest high (long positions) or lowest low (short positions) identified within a specified lookback period. This method uses the pivotal points of the market to set the trailing stop.
Percentage: The trailing stop is set at a fixed percentage away from the peak high or low.
Trailing Size (prd):
This setting defines the lookback period for the highest high and lowest low, which affects the sensitivity of the trailing stop to price movements.
Percentage Step (perc):
If the 'Percentage' method is selected, this setting determines the fixed percentage for the trailing stop distance.
Set Bias (bias):
Allows users to set a market bias which can be Bullish, Bearish, or Auto, affecting how the trailing stop is adjusted in relation to the market trend.

This win-rate adaptive approach ensures that the trading system is always aligned with the most effective period settings for the selected moving average, enhancing the system's overall performance. Moreover, the 'stepped' aspect of this optimizer introduces a filtering process based ons, significantly reducing market noise and ensuring that identified trends are both significant and reliable. This feature is critical for traders looking to mitigate the risks associated with volatile market conditions and to capitalize on genuine market movements.In essence, the GKD-M Stepped Baseline Optimizer is tailored for traders who utilize the GKD trading system, offering a sophisticated tool to refine their baseline indicators dynamically, ensuring that their trading strategies are continuously optimized for maximum efficacy.
**the backtest data rendered to the chart above uses $5 commission per trade and 10% equity per trade with $1 million initial capital. Each backtest result for each ticker assumes these same inputs. The results are NOT cumulative, they are separate and isolated per ticker and trading side, long or short**
█ Core Features
Stepped Baseline for Noise Reduction
One of the hallmark features of the GKD-M Stepped Baseline Optimizer is its stepped baseline capability. This advanced functionality employs volatility filters to refine the selection of moving averages, significantly reducing market noise. The optimizer ensures that only substantial and reliable trends are considered, eliminating the false signals often caused by minor price fluctuations. This stepped approach to baseline optimization is critical for traders aiming to develop strategies that are both resilient and responsive to genuine market movements.
Dynamic Win Rate Adaptive Capability
Another cornerstone feature is the optimizer’s dynamic win rate adaptive capability. This unique aspect allows the optimizer to adjust the moving average period settings in real-time, based on the highest win rates derived from backtesting over a predefined range. At every trading candle, the optimizer evaluates a comprehensive set of backtesting data to ascertain the optimal period settings for the moving average in use. To perform the backtesting, the trader selects an initial period input (default is 60) and a skip value that increments the initial period input up to seven times. For instance, if a skip value of 5 is chosen, the Baseline Optimizer will run the backtest for the selected moving average on periods such as 60, 65, 70, 75, and so on, up to 90. If the user selects an initial period input of 45 and a skip value of 2, the Baseline Optimizer will conduct backtests for the chosen moving average on periods like 45, 47, 49, 51, and so forth, up to 57. The GKD-M Stepped Baseline Optimizer then exports the baseline with the highest cumulative win rate per candle to any baseline-enabled GKD backtest. This ensures that the baseline indicator remains continually aligned with the most efficacious parameters, dynamically adapting to changing market conditions.
Comprehensive Moving Averages Evaluation
The optimizer’s ability to test over 65 different moving averages across multiple periods stands as a testament to its comprehensive analytical capability. Traders have the flexibility to explore a wide array of moving averages, from traditional ones like the Simple Moving Average (SMA) and Exponential Moving Average (EMA) to more complex types such as the Hull Moving Average (HMA) and Adaptive Moving Average (AMA). This extensive evaluation allows traders to pinpoint the moving average that best aligns with their trading strategy and market conditions, further enhancing the system’s adaptability and effectiveness.
Volatility Filtering and Ticker Volatility Types
Incorporating a wide range of volatility types, including the option to utilize external volatility tickers like the VIX for filtering, adds another layer of sophistication to the optimizer. This feature allows traders to calibrate their baseline according to externals, providing an additional dimension of customization. Whether using standard deviation, ATR, or external volatility indices, traders can fine-tune their strategies to be responsive to the broader market sentiment and volatility trends.
█ Key Inputs

• Initial Capital, Order Size, & Type: Sets the financial parameters for backtesting, including starting equity and the scale of trades.
• Commission per Order: Accounts for trading costs within backtest profitability calculations.
Date and Time Range
• From/Thru Year/Month/Day: Defines the historical period for strategy testing.
• Entry Time: Specifies the time frame during which trades can be initiated, crucial for strategies sensitive to market timing.
Volatility Measurements for Goldie Locks Volatility Qualifiers
• Mean Type & Period: Chooses the moving average type and period for volatility assessment.
• Inner/Outer Volatility Qualifier Multipliers: Adjusts the boundaries for volatility-based trade qualification.
• Activate Qualifier Boundaries: Enables or disables the upper and lower volatility qualifiers.
Advanced Volatility Inputs
• Volatility Ticker Selection & Trading Days: Incorporates external volatility indices (e.g., VIX) into the strategy, adjusting for market volatility.
• Static Percent, MAD Internal Filter Period, etc.: Provides fixed or adaptive volatility thresholds for filtering.
UI Customization
• Baseline Width & Table Display Options: Customizes the visual representation of the baseline and the display of optimization results.
• Table Header/Content Color & Text Size: Enhances readability and user interface aesthetics.
Export Options
• Export Data: Selects the specific metric to be exported from the script, such as net profit or average profit per trade.
Moving Average Specific Parameters
Specific inputs tailored to the characteristics of selected moving averages (e.g., Fractal Adjusted (FRAMA), Least Squares Moving Average (LSMA), T3, etc.), allowing users to fine-tune the behavior of these averages based on unique formula requirements.
█ Indicator UI
• Long and Short Baselines: The optimizer differentiates trends through two distinct baselines: a green line for long (uptrend) baselines and a red line for short (downtrend) baselines. These baselines alternate activation based on the current trend direction as determined by the moving average plus length combination for the candle in view.
Ambiguity in market direction, when an uptrend and downtrend are concurrently indicated, is visually represented by yellow lines.
• Stepping Mechanism for Trend Visualization: Adjusting the source input and the moving average output based on volatility, the indicator exhibits a stepped appearance on the chart. This mechanism ensures that only substantial market movements, surpassing a specified volatility threshold, are recognized as trend changes.
Stepping Activated
• Goldilocks Zone: Beyond the long and short baselines, the Goldilocks zone introduces a distinct moving average that closely follows the selected price or source input, aiming to strike the perfect balance between not too much and not too little market movement for trading. The upper limit of the Goldilocks zone indicates a market stretch too far for advantageous trading (overextension), while the lower limit suggests inadequate market movement for entry (underextension). Trading within the Goldilocks zone is deemed optimal, as it signifies sufficient but not excessive volatility for entering trades, aligning with either the long or short baseline recommendations. Moreover, the mean of the Goldilocks zone serves as a critical indicator, offering a median reference point that aligns closely with the market's current state. This mean is pivotal for traders, as it represents a 'just right' condition for market entry, embodying the essence of the Goldilocks principle in financial trading strategies.
• Signal Indicators and Entry Points: The chart includes with green or red dots to signify valid price points within the Goldilocks zone, indicative of conducive trading conditions. Furthermore, small directional arrows at the chart's bottom highlight potential long or short entry points, validated by the Goldilocks zone's parameters.
• Data Table: A table presenting real-time statistics from the current candle backward through the chosen range offers insights into win rates and other relevant data, aiding in informed decision-making. This table adapts with each new candle, highlighting the most favorable win rates for both long and short positions.
█ Optimizing Strategy with Backtesting
Optimizing a trading strategy with backtesting involves rigorously testing the strategy on historical data to evaluate its performance and robustness before applying it in live markets. The GKD-M Stepped Baseline Optimizer incorporates advanced backtesting capabilities, offering both cumulative and rolling window types of backtests. Here's how each backtest type operates and the insights they provide for refining trading strategies:
Cumulative Backtest
• Overview: A cumulative backtest evaluates a strategy's performance over a continuous period without resetting the strategy parameters or the simulated trading capital at the beginning of each new period.
• Utility: This type is useful for understanding a strategy's long-term viability, assessing how it adapts to different market conditions over an extended timeframe.
• Interpreting Statistics: Cumulative backtest results often focus on overall return, drawdowns, win rate, and the Sharpe ratio. A strategy with consistent returns, manageable drawdowns, a high win rate, and a favorable Sharpe ratio is considered robust.
Rolling Window Backtest
• Overview: Unlike the cumulative approach, a rolling window backtest divides the historical data into smaller, overlapping or non-overlapping periods (windows), running the strategy separately on each. After each window, the strategy parameters and simulated trading capital are reset.
• Utility: This method is invaluable for assessing a strategy's consistency and adaptability to various market phases. It helps identify if the strategy's performance is dependent on specific market conditions.
• Interpreting Statistics: For rolling window backtests, consistency is key. Look for similar performance metrics (returns, drawdowns, win rate) across different windows. Variability in performance indicates sensitivity to market conditions, suggesting the need for strategy adjustments.
Strategy Refinement Through Backtest Statistics
• Net Profit and Loss: Measures the strategy’s overall effectiveness. Consistent profitability across different market conditions is a positive indicator.
• Win Rate and Profit Factor: High win rates and profit factors indicate a strategy's efficiency in capturing gains over losses.
• Average Profit per Trade: Understanding the strategy's ability to generate profit on a per-trade basis can highlight its operational efficiency.
• Average Number of Bars in Trade: This metric helps understand the strategy's market exposure and timing efficiency.

[Options Strategies] Selling Covered Calls and Puts (TSO) This trading indicator assists with traditional covered options trading strategies like Covered Calls, Covered Puts, and Cash Secured Puts. It also offers advanced features for trading options intelligently by utilizing options specific levels, such as BE (Break Even) and Strike (all visually shown on chart) in combination with S&R (Support and Resistance), Trend Lines, and other technical analysis tools such as MA (Moving Averages) and ATR Average True Range, all integrated within the indicator.
* Covered options approach over trading shares or options separately offers distinct advantages:
- Reduced Risk and Flexibility : Covered options strategy provides a more conservative approach by combining stock ownership with options trading. It reduces risk exposure compared to buying options outright or trading shares alone. Additionally, it offers flexibility in various market conditions.
- Profitability in Sideways Markets: Covered options allow for profitability in scenarios where the stock price is either moving optimally or remaining sideways. In contrast, just holding stocks might not yield significant gains in a sideways market, and buying options can result in losses due to time decay.
- Protection Against Price Movements: In covered options, if the stock price goes against the trade, the loss is mitigated by the premium received from selling the options. This provides a level of protection compared to other trading strategies where losses can accumulate more rapidly.

An example of a Smart Covered Calls trading SPY.
STRATEGY EXPLANATION:
* Trade Open Trigger (Bullish/Sideway)
>>> S&R (Support and Resistance) or Trend Line broken, bounced off or simply near (if price is near/slightly crossing S&R/Trend Line > a bounce often takes place)
>>> Confirmation by additional TA (Technical Analysis) tools.
>>> EXAMPLE: Broken Resistance combined with a Trend Line up-bounce, confirmed by bullish 200EMA.
* TP (Take-Profit)
>>> Contracts Expire at Expiration date: Premium received for selling contracts kept.
>>> Assignment: Premium received for selling contracts kept + stock assigned/sold at a higher price than it was purchased.
* BE/SL (Break Even Stop-Loss) |
>>> BE/SL hit: stock sold at a slight loss with options contracts bought out (BTC - Buy to Close) at a lower price than initially sold (since price went down and these are calls), so technically the loss is reduced by the partial Premium still kept from initially sold contracts at trade open.
>>> Increasing the BE/SL distance: for wider BE/SL > Bid Price needs to be increased:
- Set longer Expiration date.
- Set closer Strike price.
NOTE: With longer Expiration date and closer Strike, chances of assignment increase as well. It's best to find an optimal level, where BE/SL is behind a Support/Resistance level and/or an established trend line and/or Large Length Moving Average, yet not extremely far away.

An example of a Smart Covered Puts trading SPY.
STRATEGY EXPLANATION:
* Trade Open Trigger (Bearish/Sideway)
>>> S&R (Support and Resistance) or Trend Line broken, bounced off or simply near (if price is near/slightly crossing S&R/Trend Line > a bounce often takes place)
>>> Confirmation by additional TA (Technical Analysis) tools.
>>> EXAMPLE: Broken Resistance combined with a Trend Line down-bounce, confirmed by bearish 200EMA.
* TP (Take-Profit)
>>> Contracts Expire at Expiration date: Premium received for selling contracts kept.
>>> Assignment: Premium received for selling contracts kept + stock assigned/bought-to-cover at a lower price than it was shorted.
* BE/SL (Break Even Stop-Loss) |
>>> BE/SL hit: stock bought-to-cover at a slight loss with options contracts bought out (BTC - Buy to Close) at a lower price than initially sold (since price went up and these are puts), so technically the loss is reduced by the partial Premium still kept from initially sold contracts at trade open.
>>> Increasing the BE/SL distance: for wider BE/SL > Bid Price needs to be increased:
- Set longer Expiration date.
- Set closer Strike price.
NOTE: With longer Expiration date and closer Strike, chances of assignment increase as well. It's best to find an optimal level, where BE/SL is behind a Support/Resistance level and/or an established trend line and/or Large Length Moving Average, yet not extremely far away.

---------------------------------------------------------------------------
An example of a Smart Secured Cash Puts trading SPY.
STRATEGY EXPLANATION:
* Trade Open Trigger (Bullish/Sideway)
>>> Bullish steady trend.
>>> Confirmation by additional TA (Technical Analysis) tools.
>>> EXAMPLE: Slowly rising price action above 200EMA.
* TP (Take-Profit)
>>> Early BTC: BTC (Buy to Close) before Expiration date if options premium/contract price already reduced by at least 50-90% (the reduced price is the profit, if premium lost 90% - only 10% will need to be paid to buy options out to close the trade) and if the stock price is nearing Resistance, Trend Line or big length moving average (like 200EMA) as a bounce may happen or even a potential reverse of the trend. If there is no trend reversal or a small correction bounce occurs, with further trend continuation > another Cash Secured Puts trade can be opened with new Expiration date and Strike.
>>> Contracts Expire at Expiration date: Premium received for selling contracts kept, considering the Strike was never hit.
>>> Assignment with stock closing below Strike and above/near BE (Break Even): Premium received for selling contracts kept. NOTE: It is best to get rid of the stock ASAP to then open a new Cash Secured Puts trade with lower Strike and a new Expiration date.
* BE/SL (Break Even Stop-Loss) |
>>> BE/SL hit: contracts bought out (BTC - Buy to Close) at a higher price than initially sold (since price went down and these are puts), the amount/difference in current contract price is the loss (as premium received + contract price increase is the total cost, which will have to be paid to buy the countracts out).
>>> Increasing the BE/SL distance: for wider BE/SL > Bid Price needs to be increased:
- Set longer Expiration date.
- Set closer Strike price.
NOTE: With longer Expiration date and closer Strike, chances of assignment increase as well. It's best to find an optimal level, where BE/SL is behind a Support/Resistance level and/or an established trend line and/or Large Length Moving Average, yet not extremely far away.

---------------------------------------------------------------------------
An example of Options Wheel strategy trading TQQQ. See how Strike and BE (Break Even) hits are displayed every time they occur.
STRATEGY EXPLANATION:
* Trade Open Trigger (Bullish/Sideway)
>>> Options Wheel strategy combines Cash Secured Puts with Covered Calls, so a steady bullish trend is preferred with lower volatility.
>>> It's best to start with Cash Secured Puts until assignment hits (stocks purchased), then switch to Covered Calls until assignment hits (stocks sold) and so on.
* TP (Take-Profit)
>>> Contracts Expire at Expiration date: Premium received for selling contracts kept.
>>> Assignment: Premium received for selling contracts kept. Stock is assigned (purchased if Cash Secured Puts were sold | sold if Covered Calls were sold ).
* BE/SL (Break Even Stop-Loss)
>>> Assignment is the stop-loss for this strategy, which ends current trade and starts next one. It is not a direct loss, but could result a long unrealized losses if after stock purchase assignment it goes down for a while or even a complete loss if low-cap company is used and it goes out of business.
>>> BE/SL distance can still be increased/kept optimal: for wider BE/SL > Bid Price needs to be increased:
- Set longer Expiration date.
- Set closer Strike price.
NOTE: With longer Expiration date and closer Strike, chances of assignment increase as well. It's best to find an optimal level, where BE/SL is behind a Support/Resistance level and/or an established Trend Line and/or Large Length Moving Average, yet not extremely far away.

ROCE with 3-Year EMAThis Pine Script indicator, "3-Year EMA of Return on Capital Employed (ROCE)," is designed for investors and traders who incorporate both fundamental and technical analysis in their market approach. ROCE is a crucial metric for evaluating the efficiency and profitability of a company's capital employment. Our script enhances this analysis by overlaying a 3-year Exponential Moving Average (EMA) on the ROCE, allowing users to compare current performance against a longer-term trend.
Key Features:
ROCE Calculation: The script calculates the Return on Capital Employed (ROCE) using EBIT (Earnings Before Interest and Taxes) for the Trailing Twelve Months (TTM) and Capital Employed (Total Assets minus Short Term Debt) for the Fiscal Year (FY). This calculation provides a snapshot of how effectively a company is using its capital to generate profits.
3-Year EMA Overlay: The script features a 3-year EMA of the ROCE, providing a smoothed, long-term trend line. This EMA helps in identifying broader trends in a company's operational efficiency and profitability, making it easier to spot deviations from the historical norm.
Customizable for Different Data Frequencies: Whether your data is quarterly, monthly, or weekly, the script is adaptable. The length of the EMA is adjustable to suit the data frequency, ensuring accurate representation over a 3-year period.
Visualization: The ROCE and its 3-year EMA are plotted with distinct colors for easy comparison and analysis. This visual representation aids in quickly assessing the company's current performance against its historical trend.
Customization: Users can adjust the EMA length to match the frequency of their data (e.g., 12 for quarterly, 36 for monthly, 156 for weekly data).
Usage Tips:
Best used on companies with stable and consistent reporting.
Combine with other fundamental and technical indicators fo
r comprehensive analysis.

Ichimoku Strategy - Easiest Backtest [A.R.]▓ INTRODUCTION
This indicator allows a new "sandbox" approach to the Ichimoku system allowing to combine several entry, confirmation and exit conditions, to add basic risk management, to be able to backtest the performance of the strategy using a table directly on chart, and automate entry and exit signals using alerts.
▓ DEFINITION
The Ichimoku strategy is a trading system based on technical analysis, using a set of graphical indicators to evaluate the trend, strength and support/resistance levels of a financial asset. It integrates components such as the conversion line (Tenkan), the baseline (Kijun), the cloud delimited by the Senkou Span A and the Senkou Span B (SSA - SSB - Kumo) and the lagging span (Chikou) to provide different trading signals.
▓ ADDED VALUE
Several indicators and strategies concerning Ichimoku are already available on Tradingview, we are publishing this indicator to make this strategy even more accessible, what makes it original:
▪️ Unique Settings Windows, easy-to-read. The settings categories are clearly separated. Some parameters are aligned to avoid having an endless list of parameters to modify. This makes the settings window easy to understand and pleasant to use.
▪️ Sandbox type settings, you can choose 1 or 2 Entry conditions, choose to add 1 Confirmation, choose to add between 1 and 3 Exit Conditions. Dozens of possible configurations.
▪️ Possibility of adding basic Risk Management (TP/SL)
▪️ Backtest table directly on chart that allow to get quickly the results (script execution <1 sec) which makes it practical, allowing dozens of different configurations to be tested in a short period of time
▪️ Monitoring historical and current trades on chart thanks to Boxes and Labels
▓ HOW TO USE
You can try the indicator with default settings but you can also modify backtesting settings and trade Entry conditions, Entry Confirmation, and Exit conditions, also you can decide to add a Stop Loss and/or a Take Profit. Then you can find the stats of the backtesting in a table directly in the top right corner of the chart. Finally you can automate the strategy using Alert conditions. You can find all the settings below:
Initial backtesting settings:
🔹Set up Side: Choose Long|Short, Long or Short
🔹Set up Investment: Choose an amount in $, it simulates the equity / funds on the trading account.
🔹Set up Position Size: Choose an amount in $, it simulates the amount of the position size of each trade. If you want to simulate leverage trading, you can put a Position Size superior to Investment. For exemple Investment = 10000 and Position Size = 20000 simulates a x2 leverage.
🔹Set up your Fee rate %: Each trade entry and trade exit, a % of position size will be deducted from the PnL stats. For example if you choose 0.04% with 10000 Position Size, 4$ will be deducted each trade entry and each trade exit = 8$ fees each trade.
🔹Set up the Start and End date: It allows to backtest the strategy over a period of time, for Example from 01-01-2021 to 01-12-2022. By default the end date is year 2050, the backtest will start to take into account data from Start Date to the current time.
Backtest the main Ichimoku sub-strategies choosing entry conditions:
🔸Cloud Breakouts trading: Choose this Entry condition to start a trade when Price crosses the Cloud Upside (Long) or Downside (Short)
🔸Tenkan x Kijun cross trading: Choose this Entry condition to start a trade when Tenkan (Red line) crosses Kijun (Blue line) Upside (Long) or Downside (Short)
* There is no repaint, a signal is validated after the condition is confirmed at the end of the previous candle. If a signal appears on the chart, it won't ever disappear.
Entry Confirmations:
✔️ Chikou Above or Below price: if you check this setting, Long entry signals will be confirmed only when the Chikou (White Line) is Above the current price and Short entry signals will be confirmed only when the Chikou (White Line) is below the current price. In the Ichimoku system the Chikou is often used to confirm all types of signals.
Exit Conditions:
❌ Cloud Reintegrations: When a trade is open (Long or Short), if the price goes back into the cloud the trade is closed
❌ Reverse Cloud Breakouts: When a Long trade is open, if the price breaks out of the cloud from below the trade is closed. When a Short trade is open, if the price breaks out of the cloud from above the trade is closed.
❌ Reverse Tenkan-Kijun Cross: When a Long trade is open, if the Tenkan crosses Downside the Kijun the trade is closed. When a Short trade is open, if the Tenkan crosses Upside the Kijun the trade is closed.
Basic Risk Management:
⛔️ SL: Choose to set up a Stop Loss
✅ 1 single TP: Choose to set up a Take Profit
Signals:
🔔 Entry/Exit Alerts available: 4 types of alert conditions are available ENTRY LONG, ENTRY SHORT, EXIT LONG, EXIT SHORT. The entry conditions trigger at the beginning of the candle, choose alert frequence = once per bar.
👉 Tips: Easier to find profitable configurations in High Timeframe above H4.
▓ BACKTESTING SYSTEM
The Backtesting system integrated into the script tracks each trade. It allows you to test the strategy over a fixed period between a start date and an end date.

Important to note: The source code of this indicator is not accessible because it benefits from the code of our backtesting system present in other non-public indicators that we protect. Our indicators with the same backtesting system are published in separate publications because putting them together in a single script would considerably slow down the execution of the script.
Forex Master Pattern Screener 2Overview
The Forex Master Pattern Screener 2 is based on the Master Pattern, which includes contraction, expansion, and trend phases. This indicator is designed to identify and visualize market volatility, market phases, multi-timeframe contractions, liquidity points, and pivot calculations. It provides a clear image of the market's expansion and contraction phases. It's based on an alternative form of technical analysis that reveals the psychological patterns of financial markets through three phases.
Unlike the other master pattern indicators that just use highs and lows and aren't as accurate for finding contractions, this one uses actual measures of volatility to find extremely low levels of volatility and has customizable parameters depending on what you want to do.
What is the Forex Master Pattern?
The Forex Master Pattern is a framework that revolves around understanding market cycles, comprising the three main phases: contraction, expansion, and trend.
Contraction Phase: During this phase, the market has low volatility and is consolidating within a narrow range. Institutional volume tends to be low, and it's suggested to avoid trade entries during this period.
Expansion Phase: Volatility starts to increase, and there start to be bigger moves in price. Institutional traders start accumulating positions in this phase, and they might manipulate prices to draw in retail traders, creating liquidity for their own buying or selling goals.
Trend Phase: This final phase completes the market cycle. Institutional traders begin taking profits, leading to a reversal. This triggers panic among retail traders, resulting in liquidations and stops. This generates liquidity for institutional traders to profit, leaving retail traders with overvalued positions.
Value Line:
The "value line" acts as the fair value zone or the neutral belief zone where buyers and sellers agree on fair value. It can be likened to the center of gravity and is created during contraction zones.
Applications:
Identifying these phases and understanding the value lines can help traders determine the market's general direction and make better trading decisions.
This isn't a strategy but a concept explaining market behavior, allowing traders to develop various strategies based on these principles
The contractions, which are based on volatility calculations, can help you find out when big moves will occur, known as expansions.
How traders can use this indicator
1. Identifying Market Phases:
Contraction Phase: Look for periods where the market has low volatility and is contracting, indicated by a narrow range and highlighted by the contraction box. During this phase, traders prepare for a breakout but usually avoid making new trades until a clearer trend emerges.
Expansion Phase: When the indicator signals an expansion, it suggests that the market is moving out of consolidation and may be beginning a new trend. Traders might look for entry points here, anticipating a continuation of the trend.
Trend Phase: As the market enters this phase, traders look for signs of sustained movement in one direction and consider positions that benefit from this trend.
2. Multi-Timeframe Analysis:
By looking at multiple timeframes, traders can get a broader view of the market. For instance, a contraction phase in a shorter timeframe within an expansion phase in a longer timeframe might suggest a pullback in an overall uptrend. This indicator comes with a MTF contraction screener that is customizable.
2. Fair Value Lines:
The fair value acts like a "center of gravity.". Traders could use this as a reference point for understanding market sentiment and potential reversal points. This indicator shows these values in the middle of the contraction boxes.
3. Volatility Analysis:
This indicator's volatility settings can help traders understand the market's current volatility state. High volatility indicates a more active market with larger, faster moves, while low volatility might suggest caution and tighter stop-losses or take-profits. If volatility is contracting, then an expansion is imminent. This indicator shows the volatility with percentile ranks in 0-100 values and also alerts you when volatility is contracting, aka the contraction phase.
Volatility Calculations:
This indicator uses a geometric standard deviation to measure volatility based on historical price data. This metric quantifies the variability of price changes over a specified lookback period and then computes a percentile rank within a defined sample period. This percentile calculation helps evaluate the current volatility compared to historical levels.
Based on the percentile rank, the indicator sets thresholds to determine whether the current volatility is within a range considered "contraction" or not. For example, if there are really low levels of volatility on the percentile rank, then there is currently a contraction phase. The indicator also compares the volatility value against a moving average, where values above the current moving average value signal the expansion phase.
Multi-Timeframe Analysis (MTF):
This indicator comes with a multi-timeframe table that shows contractions for 5 different timeframes, and the table is customizable.
Bands:
This indicator comes with bands that are constructed based on the statistical calculations of the standard deviation applied to the log-transformed closing prices. It is commonly assumed that the distribution of prices fits some type of right-skewed distribution. To remove most of the skewness, you can use a log transformation , which makes the distribution more symmetrical and easier to analyze, thus the use of these bands . These bands are in the 2 standard deviation range. You can use these bands to trade at extreme levels. The band parameter is based on the contraction volatility lookback, which is in the Volatility Model Settings tab.
Ways the bands could be used with the contractions:
1. Identifying Breakout trades:
Contraction Zones: These zones indicate periods of low volatility where the market is consolidating. There are usually narrow price ranges, which are considered a build-up phase before a significant price move in any direction.
Bands: When the contraction zone occurs, you might notice the bands tightening around the price on smaller lookback periods, reflecting the decreased volatility. A continuous widening of the bands could then signal the beginning of an expansion phase, indicating a potential breakout opportunity.
2. Enhancing Trade Timing:
Before the Breakout: During the contraction phase, the bands might move closer together, reflecting the lower volatility. You can monitor this phase closely and prepare for a potential expansion. The bands can provide additional confirmation; for instance, a price move toward one of the bands might show an extreme occurrence and might show what the direction of the breakout could be.
After the breakout: Once the price breaks out of the contraction zone and goes to the expansion phase, and if it coincides with the bands widening significantly, it could reinforce the strength and potential sustainability of the new trend, providing a clearer entry.
3. Price-touching bands during a contraction:
If the price repeatedly touches one of the bands during a contraction phase, it might suggest a buildup of pressure in that direction. For example, if the price is consistently touching the upper band even though the bands are narrow, it might suggest bullish pressure that could occur once the expansion phase begin.
4. Price at the band extreme levels during Expansion:
If the price is at the extreme levels of the bands once the expansion phase occurs, it might indicate unsustainable levels and a low probability of the price continuing beyond those levels. Potentially signaling that a reversal will occur. Some trades could use these extremes to place entries during the expansion phases.
Liquidity Levels:
This script comes with liquidity points, whose functionality goes towards identifying pivotal levels in price action, focusing on swing highs and swing lows in the market. These points represent areas where significant buying (for swing lows) or selling (for swing highs) activity has occurred, implying potential levels or resistance in the price movement.
These liquidity points, often identified as highs and lows, are points where market participants have shown interest in the past. These levels can act as psychological indications where traders might place orders, leading to increased trading activity when these levels are approached or breached. When used with the Forex Master Pattern phases, liquidity levels can enhance trades placed with this indicator. For instance, if the market is expanding and approaches a significant liquidity level, there might be a higher chance of a breakout or reversal, showing a possible entry or exit point.
Liquidity Levels in the Contraction Phase:
Accumulation and Distribution: During the contraction phase, liquidity levels can indicate where huge positions are likely accumulating or distributing quietly. If price is near a known liquidity level and in a contraction phase, it might suggest that a large market player is building a position in anticipation of the next move.
Breakout Points: Liquidity levels can also give clues about where price could go after the breakout from the contraction phase. A break above a liquidity level might indicate a strong move to come as the market overcomes significant selling pressure.
Liquidity Levels in Expansion Phase:
Direct Confirmation: As the expansion phase begins, breaking through liquidity levels can confirm the new trend's direction. If the price moves past these levels with huge volume, it might indicate that the market has enough momentum to continue the trend.
Target Areas: Liquidity levels can act as target areas during the expansion phase. Traders using this indicator could look to take profits if the price approaches these levels, possibly expecting a reaction from the market.
TrendGuard Pullback Trader Signals [Quantigenics]The "TrendGuard Pullback Trader Signals" script, integral to the "TrendGuard Pullback Trader" system, offers a sophisticated suite of trading tools for nearly any market or time frame. Designed to be used alongside the "TrendGuard Pullback Trader Indicators" script, this script is pivotal for identifying Buy/Sell Signals, Profit Target Signals, and Stop Loss Levels.
As with all of our scripts, the "TrendGuard Pullback Trader Signals" script, is designed to work on ANY symbol and time frame. The input parameters can be adjusted to fit your specific trading style.
Methodology and Application:
The script's core methodology lies in identifying primary signals at the onset of a trend and secondary signals during pullbacks or dips. It focuses on pinpointing optimal entry points during market pullbacks, enhancing the "TrendGuard Pullback Trader Indicators" script with well-timed signals for profit targets and stop loss levels.
Technical Composition:
The "TrendGuard Pullback Trader Signals" script combines various technical analysis tools to generate comprehensive trading signals. It calculates stop levels by assessing the highest and lowest bars over a chosen period, defining the market range. Primary signals are derived using a triple exponential moving average (EMA) of logarithmic closing prices, identifying trend changes with stop level plots and directional arrows. For secondary signals, the script uses a sequence of EMAs applied to the average price (HLC3) and an oscillator that measures the extremity of recent price movements, pinpointing potential entry points. The script also incorporates a sideways exit mechanism, comparing short-term and long-term EMAs of the average price to detect significant deviations, suggesting exit opportunities. This layered strategy offers a detailed perspective on market trends, momentum, and possible entry and exit points.
EMA-Based Trend Analysis Algorithm :
Utilizes an advanced algorithm that incorporates exponential moving averages (EMA) with specific length parameters. This algorithm analyzes the slope and direction of EMA lines to identify significant shifts in market trends.
Primary Signal Generation : Logarithmic and Triple EMA Function:
Primary signals are derived from a unique logarithmic function applied to price data, which is then processed through a series of three EMAs with distinct period settings. This combination targets potential trend initiation points by detecting shifts in the logarithmic trend curve.
Dynamic Stop Level Determination :
Employs a methodology involving the calculation of recent high and low price bars, adjusted by a factor that considers market volatility. This factor dynamically alters the sensitivity of the stop levels, aligning them with current market conditions.
Secondary Signal Identification During Pullbacks :
Secondary signals are identified through a complex comparison of the market's relative position to its moving averages. This involves calculating the divergence between price and moving averages, adjusted for the rate of change in the market, to flag strategic entry points during pullbacks.
Composite Market Trend Analysis for Signal Mechanism :
Signal generation integrates a composite of multiple technical indicators, each contributing unique mathematical calculations. This integration enhances the accuracy and reliability of entry and exit signals.
Practical Application in Trading :
> For trade initiation, primary signals are used to identify the start of potential trends, applying a specific mathematical threshold to confirm the trend change. Secondary signals focus on quantifying the pullback depth relative to recent market movements for additional entry opportunities.
> The script's dynamic stop loss adjustment incorporates a calculated moving average of recent highs and lows, providing a responsive and protective mechanism for open positions.
How to Use the Script:
Trade Initiation : Primary signals at trend onset can be used for potential entry points, or to simply establish a trend-bias, to watch for Strategic Entries signals.
Strategic Entries on Pullbacks : Secondary signals provide opportunities for additional entries or scaling into positions during pullbacks within the main trend.
Profit Targets and Exit Strategy : Profit target signals serve as potential exit points. For larger positions, consider partial exits at these targets while adjusting stop loss levels to secure profits, and hold the remaining position for further potential gains.
Dynamic Risk Management : Regularly adjust stop loss levels based on the script's dynamic stop level determination to protect against market reversals and lock in profits.
Integration with TrendGuard Pullback Trader Indicators:
The script is designed and intended to be used in conjunction with the "TrendGuard Pullback Trader Indicators ". This integration ensures a holistic approach to market analysis, combining the strengths of both scripts for a comprehensive understanding of market trends, momentum, and entry points.
Note: The lower indicators are from the 'TrendGuard Pullback Trader Indicators' script, complementing the 'TrendGuard Pullback Trader Signals' script seen here, which generates the 'cloud' and signals on the price chart.
The 'TrendGuard Pullback Traders Indicators” script can be found here :
Input Parameter Settings:
Important Usage Guidance: For seamless integration with its counterpart, the "TrendGuard Pullback Trader Indicators" script, it's crucial to align the input parameter settings across both scripts. When adjusting values from their defaults, ensure that corresponding parameters in both scripts are identically set. This synchronization is key to achieving a cohesive and accurate representation on your charts.
Intra-Bar Order Generation (IntraBar): Determines whether signals are generated within the current bar or only after it closes, enhancing flexibility in signal timing.
Stop Level Strength (StopLvlStr): Sets the strength for calculating stop levels, impacting the sensitivity of the script to market highs and lows for stop placement.
Primary Signal Display (PrimON_OFF): Toggles the visibility of primary signals on the chart, aiding in identifying trend initiation points.
Secondary Signal Display (SecON_OFF): Controls the display of secondary signals for opportunities during pullbacks, allowing traders to capitalize on additional entry points.
Stop Loss Level Display (StopLossLvls): Enables or disables the visualization of stop loss levels, crucial for risk management strategies.
Trend Length (TrendLen): Adjusts the length parameter for the EMA calculations, influencing how the script interprets trend duration and strength.
These parameters allow traders to customize the script’s functionality according to their trading style and preferences, ensuring a tailored approach to signal generation and risk management.
Trade Alerts:
The script includes an advanced alert system designed to notify traders of crucial trading signals. This can Especially be useful when using larger time frames where trade setups can take a longer period of time to develop:
Primary Buy/Sell Alerts: Alerts are triggered at primary signals, indicating potential trend initiation points for entering trades.
Secondary Buy/Sell Alerts: These alerts activate during secondary signals, highlighting opportunities within ongoing trends for strategic entries or exits.
Stop Loss Level Alerts: The script can alert traders when the price reaches or crosses the script-determined stop loss levels, aiding in timely decision-making for risk management.
Sideways Exit Alerts: Alerts for potential exits are generated in sideways market conditions, based on the script’s analysis of average price movements.
To set up these alerts, traders can use TradingView’s alert system to specify the conditions under which they receive notifications, such as when a certain shape (e.g., arrow up for buy, arrow down for sell) appears on the chart. This feature helps traders stay informed and react promptly to the dynamic market conditions.
The "TrendGuard Pullback Trader Signals " script is a meticulously crafted tool, essential for traders aiming to enhance their market analysis and decision-making across diverse trading environments. While the script offers advanced functionalities, it reaches its full potential when used alongside the "TrendGuard Pullback Trader Indicators" script.

YinYang TrendTrend Analysis has always been an important aspect of Trading. There are so many important types of Trend Analysis and many times it may be difficult to identify what to use; let alone if an Indicator can/should be used in conjunction with another. For these exact reasons, we decided to make YinYang Trend. It is a Trend Analysis Toolkit which features many New and many Well Known Trend Analysis Indicators. However, everything in there is added specifically for the reason that it may work well in conjunction with the other Indicators prevalent within. You may be wondering, why bother including common Trend Analysis, why not make everything unique? Ideally, we would, however, you need to remember Trend Analysis may be one of the most common forms of charting. Therefore, many other traders may be using similar Trend Analysis either through plotting manually or within other Indicators. This all boils down to Psychology; you are trading against other traders, who may be seeing some of the similar information you are, and therefore, you may likewise want to see this information. What affects their trading decisions may affect yours as well.
Now enough about Trend Analysis, what is within this Indicator, and what does it do? Well, first let’s quickly mention all of its components, then we will, through a Tutorial, discuss each individually and finally how each comes together as a cohesive whole. This Indicator features many aspects:
Bull and Bear Signals
Take Profit Signals
Bull and Bear Zones
Information Tables displaying: (Boom Meter, Bull/Bear Strength, Yin/Yang State)
16 Cipher Signals
Extremes
Pivots
Trend Lines
Custom Bollinger Bands
Boom Meter Bar Colors
True Value Zones
Bar Strength Indexes
Volume Profile
There are many things to cover within our Tutorial so let's get started, chronologically from the list above.
Tutorial:
Bull and Bear Signals:
We’ve zoomed out quite a bit for this example to help give you a broader aspect of how these Bull and Bear signals work. When a signal appears, it is displaying that there may be a large amount of Bullish or Bearish Trend Analysis occurring. These signals will remain in their state of Bull or Bear until there is enough momentum change that they change over. There are a couple Options within the Settings that dictate when/where/why these signals appear, and this example is using their default Settings of ‘Medium’. They are, Purchase Speed and Purchase Strength. Purchase Speed refers to how much Price Movement is needed for a signal to occur and Purchase Strength refers to how many verifications are required for a signal to occur. For instance:
'High' uses 15 verifications to ensure signal strength.
'Medium' uses 10 verifications to ensure signal strength.
'Low' uses 5 verifications to ensure signal strength.
'Very Low' uses 3 verifications to ensure signal strength.
By default it is set to Medium (10 verifications). This means each verification is worth 10%. The verifications used are also relevant to the Purchase Speed; meaning they will be verified faster or slower depending on its speed setting. You may find that Faster Speeds and Lower Verifications may work better on Higher Time Frames; and Slower Speeds and Higher Verifications may work better on Lower Time Frames.
We will demonstrate a few examples as to how the Speed and Strength Settings work, and why it may be beneficial to adjust based on the Time Frame you’re on:
In this example above, we’ve kept the same Time Frame (1 Day), and scope; but we’ve changed Purchase Speed from Medium->Fast and Purchase Strength from Medium-Very Low. As you can see, it now generates quite a few more signals. The Speed and Strength settings that you use will likely be based on your trading style / strategy. Are you someone who likes to stay in trades longer or do you like to swing trade daily? Likewise, how do you go about identifying your Entry / Exit locations; do you start on the 1 Day for confirmation, then move to the 15/5 minute for your entry / exit? How you trade may determine which Speed and Strength settings work right for you. Let's jump to a lower Time Frame now so you can see how it works on the 15/5 minute.
Above is what BTC/USDT looks like on the 15 Minute Time Frame with Purchase Speed and Strength set to Medium. You may note that the signals require a certain amount of movement before they get started. This is normal with Medium and the amount of movement is generally dictated by the Time Frame. You may choose to use Medium on a Lower Time Frame as it may work well, but it may also be best to change it to a little slower.
We are still on the 15 Minute Time Frame here, however we simply changed Purchase Speed from Medium->Slow. As you can see, lots of the signals have been removed. Now signals may ‘hold their ground’ for much longer. It is important to adjust your Purchase Speed and Strength Settings to your Time Frame and personalized trading style accordingly.
Above we have now jumped down to the 5 Minute Time Frame. Our Purchase Speed is Slow and our Purchase Strength is Medium. We can see it looks pretty good, although there is some signal clustering going on in the middle there. If we change our Settings, we may be able to get rid of that.
We have changed our Purchase Speed from Slow->Snail (Slowest it can go) and Purchase Strength from Medium->Very Low (Lowest it can go). Changing it from Slow-Snail helped get rid of the signal clustering. You may be wondering why we lowered the Strength from Medium->Very Low, rather than going from Medium->High. This is a use case scenario and one you’ll need to decide for yourself, but we noticed when we changed the Speed from Slow->Snail that the signal clustering was gone, so then we checked both High and Very Low for Strengths to see which produced the best looking signal locations.
Please remember, you don’t have to use it the exact way we’ve displayed in this Tutorial. It is meant to be used to suit your Trading Style and Strategy. This is why we allow you to modify these settings, rather than just automating the change based on Time Frames. You’ll likely need to play around with it, as you’ll notice different settings may work better on certain pairs and Time Frames than others.
Take Profit Signals:
We’ve reset our Purchase Settings, everything is on defaults right now at Medium. We’ve enabled Take Profit signals. As you can see there are both Take Profit signals for the Bulls and the Bears. These signals are not meant to be used within automation. In fact, none of this indicator is. These signals are meant to show there has been a strong change in momentum, to such an extent that the signal may switch from its current (Bull or Bear) and now may be a good time to Take Profit. Your Take Profit Settings likewise has a Speed and Strength, and you can set them differently than your Purchase Settings. This is in case you want to Take Profit in a different manner than your Purchase Signals. For instance:
In the example above we’ve kept Purchase Strength and Speed at Medium but we changed our Take Profit Speed from Medium->Snail and our Take Profit Strength from medium->Very Low. This greatly reduces the amount of Take Profit signals, and in some cases, none are even produced. This form of Take Profit may act more as a Trailing Take Profit that if it’s not hit, nothing appears.
In this example we have changed our Purchase Speed from Medium->Fast, our Purchase Strength from Medium->Very Low. We’ve also changed our Take Profit Speed from Snail->Medium and kept our Take Profit Strength on Very Low. Now we may get our signals quicker and likewise our Take Profit may be more rare. There are many different ways you can set up your Purchase and Take Profit Settings to fit your Trading Style / Strategy.
Bull and Bear Zones:
We have disabled our Take Profit locations so that you can see the Bull and Bear Zones. These zones change color when the Signals switch. They may represent some strong Support and Resistance locations, but more importantly may be useful for visualizing changes in momentum and consolidation. These zones allow you to see various Moving Averages; and when they start to ‘fold’ (cross) each other you may see changes in momentum. Whereas, when they’re fully stretched out and moving all in the same direction, it can provide insight that the current rally may be strong. There is also the case where they look like they’re ‘twisted’ together. This happens when all of the Moving Averages are very close together and may be a sign of Consolidation. We will go over a few examples of each of these scenarios so you can understand what we’re referring to.
In this example above, there are a few different things happening. First we have the yellow circle, where the final and slowest Moving Average (MA) crossed over and now all of the MA’s that form the zone are Bullish. You can see this in the white circle where there are no MA’s that are crossing each other. Lastly, within the blue circle, we can see how some of the faster MA’s are crossing under each other. This is a bullish momentum change. The Faster moving MA’s will always be the first ones to cross before the Slower ones do. There is a color scheme in place here to represent the Speed of the MA within the Zone. Light blue is the fastest moving Bull color -> Light Green and finally -> Dark Green. Yellow is the fastest moving Bear color -> Orange and finally -> Red / Dark Red within the Zone.
Next we will review a couple different examples of what Consolidation looks like and why it is very important to look out for. Consolidation is when Most, if not All of the MA’s are very tightly ‘twisted’ together. There is very little spacing between almost all of the MA’s in the example above; highlighted by the white circle. Consolidation is important as it may indicate a strong price movement in either direction will occur soon. When the price is consolidating it means it has had very little upwards or downwards movement recently. When this happens for long enough, MA’s may all get very similar in value. This may cause high volatility as the price tries to break out of Consolidation. Let's look at another example.
Above we have two more examples of what Consolidation looks like and how high Volatility may occur after the Consolidation is broken. Please note, not all Consolidation will create high Volatility but it is something you may want to look out for.
Information Tables displaying: (Boom Meter, Bull/Bear Strength, Yin/Yang State):
Information tables are a very important way of displaying information. It contains 3 crucial pieces of information:
Boom Meter
Bull/Bear Strength
Yin/Yang State
Boom Meter is a meter that goes from 0-100% and displays whether the current price is Dumping (0 - 29%), Consolidating (30 - 70%) or Pumping (71 - 100%). The Boom Meter is meant to be a Gauge to how the price is currently fairing. It is composed of ~50 different calculations that all vary different weights to calculate its %. Many of the calculations it uses are likewise used in other things, such as the Bull/Bear Strength, Bull/Bear Zone MA cross’, Yin/Yang State, Market Cipher Signals, RSI, Volume and a few others. The Boom Meter, although not meant to be used solely to make purchase decisions, may give you a good idea of current market conditions considering how many different things it evaluates.
Bull/Bear Strength is relevant to your Purchase Speed and Strength. It displays which state it is currently in, and the % it is within that state. When a % hits 0, is when the state changes. When states change, they always start at 100% initially and will go down at the rate of Purchase Strength (how many verifications are needed). For instance, if your Purchase Strength is set to ‘Medium’ it will move 10% per verification +/-, if it is set to High, it will move 6.67% per verification +/-. Bull/Bear Strength is a good indicator of how well that current state is fairing. For instance if you started a Long when the state changed to Bull and now it is currently at Bull with 20% left, that may be a good indication it is time to get out (obviously refer to other data as well, but it may be a good way to know that the state is 20% away from transitioning to Bear).
Yin/Yang State is the strongest MA cross within our Indicator. It is unique in the sense that it is slow to change, but not so much that it moves slowly. It isn’t as simple as say a Golden/Death Cross (50/200), but it crosses more often and may hold similar weight as it. Yin stands for Negative (Bearish) and Yang stands for Positive (Bullish). The price will always be in either a state of Yin or Yang, and just because it is in one, doesn’t mean the price can’t/won’t move in the opposite direction; it simply means the price may be favoring the state it is in.
16 Cipher Signals:
Cipher Signals are key visuals of MA cross’ that may represent price movement and momentum. It would be too confusing and hard to decipher these MA’s as lines on a chart, and therefore we decided to use signals in the form of symbols instead. There are 12 Standard and 4 Predictive/Confirming Cipher signals. The Standard Cipher signals are composed of 6 Bullish and 6 Bearish (they all have opposites that balance each other out). There can never be 2 of the same signal in a row, as the Bull and Bear cancel each other out and it's always in a state of one or the other. When all 6 Bullish or Bearish signals appear in a row, very closely together, without any of the opposing signals it may represent a strong momentum movement is about to occur.
If you refer to the example above, you’ll see that the 6 Bullish Cipher signals appeared exactly as mentioned above. Shortly after the Green Circle appeared, there was a large spike in price movement in favor of the Bulls. Cipher signals don’t need to appear in a cluster exactly like the white circle in this photo for momentum to occur, but when it does, it may represent volatility more than if it is broken up with opposing signals or spaced out over a longer time span.
Above is an example of the opposite, where all 6 Bearish Cipher signals appeared together without being broken by a Bullish Cipher signal or being too far spaced out. As you can see, even though past it there was a few Bullish signals, they were quickly reversed back to Bearish before a large price movement occurred in favor of the Bears.
In the example above we’ve changed Cipher signals to Predictive and Confirming. Support Crosses (Green +) and Blood Diamonds (Red ♦) are the normal Cipher Signals that appear within the Standard Set. They are the first Cipher Signal that appears and are the most common ones as well. However, just because they are the first, that doesn’t mean they aren’t a powerful Cipher signal. For this reason, there are Predictive and Confirming Cipher signals for these. The Predictive do just that, they appear slightly sooner (if not the same bar) as the regular and the Confirming appear later (1+ bars usually). There will be times that the Predictive appears, but it doesn’t resort to the Regular appearing, or the Regular appears and the Confirming doesn’t. This is normal behavior and also the purpose of them. They are meant to be an indication of IF they may appear soon and IF the regular was indeed a valid signal.
Extremes:
Extremes are MA’s that have a very large length. They are useful for seeing Cross’ and Support and Resistance over a long period of time. However, because they are so long and slow moving, they might not always be relevant. It’s usually advised to turn them on, see if any are close to the current price point, and if they aren’t to turn them off. The main reason being is they stretch out the chart too much if they’re too far away and they also may not be relevant at that point.
When they are close to the price however, they may act as strong Support and Resistance locations as circled in the example above.
Pivots:
Pivots are used to help identify key Support and Resistance locations. They adjust on their own in an attempt to keep their locations as relevant as possible and likewise will adjust when the price pushes their current bounds. They may be useful for seeing when the Price is currently testing their level as this may represent Overbought or Oversold. Keep in mind, just because the price is testing their levels doesn’t mean it will correct; sometimes with high volatility or geopolitical news, movement may continue even if it is exhibiting Overbought or Oversold traits. Pivots may also be useful for seeing how far the price may correct to, giving you a benchmark for potential Take Profit and Stop Loss locations.
Trend Lines:
Trend Lines may be useful for identifying Support and Resistance locations on the Vertical. Trend Lines may form many different patterns, such as Pennants, Channels, Flags and Wedges. These formations may help predict and drive the price in specific directions. Many traders draw or use Indicators to help create Trend Lines to visualize where these formations will be and they may be very useful alone even for identifying possible Support and Resistance locations.
If you refer to the previous example, and now to this example, you’ll notice that the Trend Line that supported it in 2023 was actually created in June 2020 (yellow circle). Trend Lines may be crucial for identifying Support and Resistance locations on the Vertical that may withhold over time.
Custom Bollinger Bands:
Bollinger Bands are used to help see Movement vs Consolidation Zones (When it's wide vs narrow). It's also very useful for seeing where the correction areas may be. Price may bounce between top and bottom of the Bollinger Bands, unless in a pump or dump. The Boom Meter will show you whether it is currently: Dumping, Consolidation or Pumping. If combined with Boom Meter Bar Colors it may be a good indication if it will break the Bollinger Band (go outside of it). The Middle Line of the Bollinger Band (White Line) may be a very strong support / resistance location. If the price closes above or below it, it may be a good indication of the trend changing (it may indicate one of the first stages to a pump or dump). The color of the Bollinger Bands change based on if it is within a Bull or Bear Zone.
What makes this Bollinger Band special is not only that it uses a custom multiplier, but it also incorporates volume to help add weight to the calculation.
Boom Meter Bar Colors:
Boom Meter Bar Colors are a way to see potential Overbought and Oversold locations on a per bar basis. There are 6 different colors within the Boom Meter bar colors. You have:
Overbought and Very Bullish = Dark Green
Overbought and Slightly Bullish = Light Green
Overbought and Slight Bearish = Light Red
Oversold and Very Bearish = Dark Red
Oversold and Slightly Bearish = Orange
Oversold and Slightly Bullish = Light Purple
When there is no Boom Meter Bar Color prevalent there won’t be a color change within the bar at all.
Just because there is a Boom Meter Bar Color change doesn’t mean you should act on it purchase or sell wise, but it may be an indication as to how that bar is fairing in an Overbought / Oversold perspective. Boom Meter Bar Colors are mainly based on RSI but do take in other factors like price movement to determine if it is Overbought or Oversold. When it comes to Boom Meter Bar Color, you should take it as it is, in the sense that it may be useful for seeing how Individual bars are fairing, but also note that there may be things such as:
When there is Very Overbought (Dark Green) or Very Oversold (Dark Red), during massive pump or dumps, it will maintain this color. However, once it has lost ‘some’ momentum it will likely lose this color.
When there has been a massive Pump or Dump, and there is likewise a light purple or light red, this may mean there is a correction or consolidation incoming.
True Value Zones:
True Value zones are our custom way of displaying something that is similar to a Bollinger Band that can likewise twist like an MA cross. The main purpose of it is to display where the price may reside within. Much like a Bollinger Band it has its High and Low within its zone to specify this location. Since it has the ability to cross over and under, it has the ability to specify what it thinks may be a Bullish or Bearish zone. This zone uses its upper level to display what may be a Resistance location and its lower level to display what may be a Support location. These Support and Resistance locations are based on Momentum and will move with the price in an attempt to stay relevant.
You may use these True Values zones as a gauge of if the price is Overbought or Oversold. When the price faces high volatility and moves outside of the True Value Zones, it may face consolidation or likewise a correction to bring it back within these zones. These zones may act as a guideline towards where the price is currently valued at and may belong within.
Bar Strength Indexes:
Bar Strength Indexes are our way of ranking each bar in correlation to the last few. It is based on a few things but is highly influenced on Open/Close/High/Low, Volume and how the price has moved recently. They may attempt to ‘rate’ each bar and how Bullish/Bearish each of these bars are. The Green number under the bar is its Bullish % and the Red number above the bar is its Bearish %. These %’s will always equal 100% when combined together. Bar Strength Indexes may be useful for seeing when either Bullish or Bearish momentum is picking up or when there may be a reversal / consolidation.
These Bar Strength Indexes may allow you to decipher different states. If you refer to the example above, you may notice how based on how the numbers are changing, you may see when it has entered / exited Bullish, Bearish and Consolidation. Likewise, if you refer to the current bar (yellow circle), you can see that the Bullish % has dropped from 93 to 49; this may be signifying that the Bullish movement is losing momentum. You may use these changes in Bar Indexes as a guide to when to enter / end trades.
Volume Profile:
Volume Profile has been something that has been within TradingView for quite some time. It is a very useful way of seeing at what Horizontal Price there has been the most volume. This may be very useful for seeing not only Support and Resistance locations based on Volume, but also seeing where the majority of Limit Orders are placed. Limit Orders are where traders decide they want to either Buy / Sell but have the order placed so the trade won’t happen until the price reaches a certain amount. Either through many orders from many traders, or a single order from a ‘Whale’ (trader with a lot of capital); you may see Support and Resistance at specific Price Points that have large Volume.
Many Volume Profile Indicators feature a breakdown of all the different locations of volume, along with a Point Of Control (POC) line to designate where the most Volume has been. To try and reduce clutter within our already very saturated Toolkit Indicator, we’ve decided to strip our Volume Profile to only display this POC line. This may allow you to see where the crucial Volume Support and Resistance is without all of the clutter.
You may be wondering, well how important is this Volume Profile POC line and how do I go about using it? Aside from it being a gauge towards where Support and Resistance may be within Volume, it may also be useful for identifying good Long/Short locations. If you think of the line as a ‘Battle’ between the Bulls and Bears, they’re both fighting over that line. The Bears are wanting to break through it downwards, and the Bulls are wanting to break through it upwards. When one side has temporarily won this battle, this means they may have more Capital to push the price in their direction. For instance, if both the Bulls and the Bears are fighting over this POC price, that means the Bears think that price is a good spot to sell; however, the Bulls also deem that price to be a good point to buy. If the Bulls were to win this battle, that means the Bears either canceled their orders to reevaluate, or all of their orders have been completed from the Bulls buying them all. What may happen after that is, if the Bulls were able to purchase all of these Limit Sell Orders, then they may still have more Capital left to continue to pressure the price upwards. The same may be true for if the Bears were to win this ‘Battle’.
How to use YinYang Trend as a cohesive whole:
Hopefully you’ve read and understand how each aspect of this Indicator works on its own, as knowing how/what they each do is important to understanding how it is used as a cohesive whole. Due to the fact that this Toolkit of an Indicator displays so much data, you may find it easier to use and understand when you’re zoomed in a little, somewhat like we are in this example above.
If we refer to the example above, you may like us, deduce a few things:
1. The current price may be VERY Overbought. This may be seen by a few different things:
The Boom Meter Bar Colors have been exhibiting a Dark Green color for 6 bars in a row.
The price has continuously been moving the High (red) Pivot Upwards.
Our Boom Meter displays ‘Pumping’ at 100%.
The price broke through a Downward Trend Line that was created in February of 2022 at 45,000 like it was nothing.
The Bar Strength Index hit a Bullish value of 93%.
The Price broke out of the Bollinger Bands and continues to test its upper levels.
The Low is much greater than our fastest moving MA that creates the Purchase Zones.
The Price is vastly outside of the True Value Zone.
The Bar Strength Index of our current bar is 50% bullish, which is a massive decrease from the previous bar of 93%. This may indicate that a correction is coming soon.
2. Since we’ve identified the current price may be VERY Overbought, next we need to identify if/when/to where it may correct to:
We’ve created a new example here to display potential correction areas. There are a few places it has the ability to correct to / within:
The downward Trend Line (red) below the current bar sitting currently at 32,750. This downward Trend Line is at the same price point as the Fastest MA of our Purchase Zone which may provide some decent Support there.
Between two crucial Pivot heights, within a zone of 30,000 to 31,815. This zone has the second fastest MA from the Purchase Zone right near the middle of it at 31,200 which may act as a Support within the Zone. Likewise there is the Bollinger Band Basis which is also resting at 30,000 which may provide a strong Support location here.
If 30,000 fails there may be a correction all the way to the bottom of our True Value Zone and the top of one of our Extremes at 27,850.
If 27,850 fails it may correct all the way to the bottom of our Purchase Zone / lowest of our Extremes at 27,350.
If all of the above fails, it may test our Volume Profile POC of 26,430. If this POC fails, the trend may switch to Bearish and continue further down to lower levels of Support.
The price can always correct more than the prices mentioned above, but considering overall this Indicator is favoring the Bulls, we will tailor this analysis in Favor of the Bullish Momentum maintaining even during this correction. For these reasons, we think the price may correct between the 30,000 and 31,815 zone before continuing upwards and maintaining this Bullish Momentum.
Please note, these correction estimates are just that, they’re estimates. Aside from the fact that the price is very overbought right now and our Bar Strength Index may be declining (bar hasn’t closed yet); the Boom Meter Strength remains at 100%, meaning there may not be much Bearish momentum changes happening yet. We just want to show you how an Preemptive analysis may be done before there are even Bearish Cipher Signals appearing.
Using this Indicator, you may be able to decipher Entry and Exits. In the previous example, we went over how you may use it to see where a correction (Exit / Take Profit) may be and how far this correction may go. In this example above we will be discussing how to identify Entry locations. We will be discussing a Bullish Buy entry but the same rules apply for a Bearish Sell Entry just the opposite with the Cipher Signals.
If you refer to where we circled in white, this is where the Purchase Zones faced Consolidation. When the Purchase Zones all get tight and close together like that, this may represent Volatility and Momentum in either direction may occur soon.
This was then followed by all 6 of the Standard Cipher Signals closely in succession to each other. This means the Momentum may be favoring the Bulls. If this was likewise all 6 of the Bearish Cipher Signals closely in succession, than the momentum change would favor the Bears.
If you were looking for an entry, and you saw Consolidation with the Purchase Zones and then shortly after you saw the Green Circle and Blue Flag (they can swap order); this may now be a good Entry location.
We will conclude this Tutorial here. Hopefully this has taught you how this Trend Analysis Toolkit may help you locate multiple different types of important Support and Resistance locations; as well as possible Entry and Exit locations.
Settings:
1. Bull/Bear Zones:
1.1. Purchase Speed (Bull/Bear Signals and Take Profit Signals):
Speed determines how much price movement is needed for a signal to occur.
'Sonic' uses the extremities to try and get you the best entry and exit points, but is so quick, its speed may reduce accuracy.
'Fast' may attempt to capitalize on price movements to help you get SOME or attempt to lose LITTLE quickly.
'Medium' may attempt to get you the most optimal entry and exit locations, but may miss extremities.
'Slow' may stay in trades until it is clear that momentum has changed.
'Snail' may stay in trades even if momentum has changed. Snail may only change when the price has moved significantly (This may result in BIG gains, but potentially also BIG losses).
1.2. Purchase Strength (Bull/Bear Signals and Take Profit Signals):
Strength ensures a certain amount of verifications required for signals to happen. The more verifications the more accurate that signal is, but it may also change entry and exit points, and you may miss out on some of the extremities. It is highly advised to find the best combination between Speed and Strength for the TimeFrame and Pair you are trading in, as all pairs and TimeFrames move differently.
'High' uses 15 verifications to ensure signal strength.
'Medium' uses 10 verifications to ensure signal strength.
'Low' uses 5 verifications to ensure signal strength.
'Very Low' uses 3 verifications to ensure signal strength.
2. Cipher Signals:
Cipher Signals are very strong EMA and SMA crosses, which may drastically help visualize movement and help you to predict where the price will go. All Symbols have counter opposites that cancel each other out (YinYang). Here is a list, in order of general appearance and strength:
White Cross / Diamond (Predictive): The initial indicator showing trend movement.
Green Cross / Diamond (Regular): Confirms the Predictive and may add a fair bit of strength to trend movement.
Blue Cross / Diamond (Confirming): Confirms the Regular, showing the trend might have some decent momentum now.
Green / Red X: Gives momentum to the current trend direction, possibly confirming the Confirming Cross/Diamond.
Blue / Orange Triangle: may confirm the X, Possible pump / dump of decent size may be coming soon.
Green / Red Circle: EITHER confirms the Triangle and may mean big pump / dump is potentially coming, OR it just hit its peak and signifies a potential reversal correction. PAY ATTENTION!
Green / Red Flag: Oddball that helps confirm trend movements on the short term.
Blue / Yellow Flag: Oddball that helps confirm trend movements on the medium term (Yin / Yang is the long term Oddball).
3. Bull/Bear Signals:
Bear and Bull signals are where the momentum has changed enough based on your Purchase Speed and Strength. They generally represent strong price movement in the direction of the signal, and may be more reliable on higher TimeFrames. Please don’t use JUST these signals for analysis, they are only meant to be a fraction of the important data you are using to make your technical analysis.
4. Take Profit Signals:
Take Profit signals are guidelines that momentum has started to change back and now may be a good time to take profit. Your Take Profit signals are based on your Take Profit Speed and Strength and may be adjusted to fit your trading style.
5. Information Tables:
Information tables display very important data and help to declutter the screen as they are much less intrusive compared to labels. Our Information tables display: Boom Meter, Purchase Strength of Bull/Bear Zones and Yin/Yang State.
Boom Meter: Uses over 50 different calculations to determine if the pair is currently 'Dumping' (0-29%), 'Consolidating' (30-70%), or 'Pumping' (71-100%).
Bull / Bear Strength: Shows the strength of the current Bull / Bear signal from 0-100% (Signals start at 100% and change when they hit 0%). The % it moves up or down is based on your 'Purchase Strength'.
Yin / Yang state: Is one of the strongest EMA/SMA crosses (long term Oddball) within this Indicator and may be a great indication of which way the price is moving. Do keep in mind if the price is consolidating when changing state, it may have the highest chance of switching back also. Once momentum kicks in and there is price movement the state may be confirmed. Refer to other Cipher Symbols, Extremes, Trend, BOLL, Boom %, Bull / Bear % and Bar colors when Bull / Bear Zones are consolidating and Yin / Yang State changes as this is a very strong indecision zone.
6. Bull / Bear Zones:
Our Bull / Bear zones are composed of 8 very important EMA lengths that may act as not only Support and Resistance, but they help to potentially display consolidation and momentum change. You can tell when they are getting tight and close together it may represent consolidation and when they start to flip over on each other it may represent a change in momentum.
7. MA Extremes:
Our MA Extremes may be 3 of the most important long term moving averages. They don’t always play a role in trades as sometimes they’re way off from the price (cause they’re extreme lengths), but when they are around price or they cross under or over each other, it may represent large changes in price are about to occur. They may be very useful for seeing strong resistance / support locations based on price averages. Extremes may transition from a Support to a Resistance based on its position above or below them and how many times the price has either bounced up off them (Supporting) or Bounced back down after hitting them (Resistance).
8. Pivots:
Pivots may be a very important indicator of support and resistance for horizontal price movement. Pivots may represent the current strongest Support and Resistance. When the Pivot changes, it means a new strong Support or Resistance has been created. Sometimes you'll notice the price constantly pushes the pivot during a massive Pump or Dump. This is normal, and may indicate high levels of volatility. This generally also happens when the price is outside of the Bollinger Bands and is also Over or Undervalued. The price usually consolidates for a while after something like this happens before more drastic movement may occur.
9. Trend Lines:
Trend lines may be one of the best indicators of support and resistance for diagonal price movement. When a Trend Line fails to hold it may be a strong indication of a dump. Keep a close eye to where Upward and Downward Trend Lines meet. Trend lines can create different trading formations known as Pennants, Flags and Wedges. Please familiarize yourself with these formations So you know what to look for.
10. Bollinger Bands (BOLL):
Bollinger Bands may be very useful, and ours have been customized so they may be even more accurate by using a modified calculation that also incorporates volume.
Bollinger Bands may be used to see Movement vs Consolidation Zones (When it’s wide vs narrow). It also may be very useful for seeing where the correction areas are likely to be. Price may bounce between top and bottom of the BOLL, unless perhaps in a pump or dump. The Boom Meter may show you whether it is currently: Dumping, Consolidation or Pumping, along with Boom Meter Bar Colors, may be a good indication if it will break the BOLL. The Middle Line of the BOLL (White Line) may be a very strong support / resistance line. If the price closes above or below it, it may be a good indication of the trend changing (it may be one of the first stages to a pump or dump).
11. Boom Meter Bar Colors:
Boom Meter bar colors may be very useful for seeing when the bar is Overbought or Underbought. There are 6 different types of boom meter bar colors, they are:
Dark Green: RSI may be very Overbought and price going UP (May be in a big pump. NOTICE, chance of small dump correction if Cherry Red bar appears).
Light Green: RSI may be slightly Overbought and price going UP (chance of small pump).
Light Purple: RSI may be very Underbought and price going UP (May have chance of small correction).
Dark Red: RSI may be very Underbought and price going DOWN (May be in a big dump. NOTICE, chance of small pump correction if Light Purple bar appears).
Light Orange: RSI may be slightly Underbought and price going DOWN (chance of small dump).
Cherry Red: RSI may be very Overbought and price going DOWN (Chance of small correction).
12. True Value Zone:
True Value Zones display zones that represent ranges to show what the price may truly belong within. They may be very useful for knowing if the Price is currently not valued correctly, which generally means a correction may happen soon. True Value Zones can swap from Bullish to Bearish and are represented by Red for Bearish and Green for Bullish. For example, if the price is ABOVE and OUTSIDE of the True Value Zone, this means it may be very overvalued and might correct to go back inside the True Value Zone. This correction may be done by either dumping in price back into the zone, or consolidating horizontally back into it over a longer period of time. Vice Versa is also true if it is BELOW and OUTSIDE of the True Value Zone.
13. Bar Strength Index:
Bar Strength Index may display how Bullish/Bearish the current bar is. The strength is important to help see if a pump may be losing momentum or vice versa if a dump may correct. Keep in mind, the Bar Strength Index does a small 'refresh' to account for new bars. It may help to keep the Index more accurate.
14. Volume Profile:
Volume Profiles may be important to know where the Horizontal Support/Resistance is in Price base on Volume. Our Volume Profile may identify the point where the most volume has occurred within the most relevant timeframe. Volume Profiles are helpful at identifying where Whales have their orders placed. The reason why they are so helpful at identifying whales is when the volume is profiled to a specific area, there may likely be lots of Limit Buy and/or Sells around there. Limit Buys may act as Support and Limit Sells may act as Resistance. It may be very useful to know where these lie within the price, similar to looking at Order Book Data for Whale locations.

HAPPY TRADING!
Auto Trailing stoploss By InvestYourAsset💥The Auto Trailing Stop-Loss indicator is a technical indicator that uses the ATR (Average True Range) to calculate a trailing stop-loss for both long and short positions.
💥The signals according to the indicator allows traders to exit from the position before its too late! The indicator can be used to determine when to enter and exit trades.
💥To use the indicator, you simply need to set the input parameters to suit your trading style and risk tolerance. The default values for the parameters are:
p: The ATR period (14)
q: The stop period (20)
x: The multiplier used to calculate the initial high and initial low (1.5)
Calculations:
📈Calculates the ATR using the specified period you can modify ATR period according to your trading style.
📈Calculates the initial high and low stop levels based on the highest high and lowest low over the user defined ATR period.
📈Calculates short and long stoploss levels using the initial high and low stops.
💥Once you have set the input parameters according to your trading style whether you are a day trader or a swing trader, the indicator will plot the short stoploss, long stoploss, and stoploss hit signals on your chart.
💥You can use the indicator to enter and exit trades in a various ways.
For example,
🚀 you could enter a long trade when the price crosses above both red and green lines plotted on the chart. (or when price crosses over both short stoploss and long stoploss.) You could also use the indicator to secure your profits by moving your stop-loss up as the price moves in your favor.
Here is an example of how you could use the indicator to enter and exit trades:
🚀Enter a long trade when the price crosses above the red line or short stoploss.
✅keep Moving your stop-loss upward with the long stoploss or green line.
✅Exit the trade when the price crosses below the long stoploss or green line.
💥You can also use the indicator to protect your existing trades. For example, if you are already in a long trade, you could move your stop-loss up to the short stop when the price moves up 10%. This will help you to protect your profits in case the price starts to move against you.
💥💥some additional tips for using the Auto Trailing Stop-Loss indicator:
✅Use the indicator in conjunction with other technical indicators or your own trading strategy to generate entry and exit signals.
✅Backtest your trading strategy before using it live to make sure that it is profitable.
✅Use the indicator to protect your profits by moving your stop-loss up as the price moves in your favor.
✅ Always follow risk management rules and manage your position sizing according to your risk appetite.
✅ Be aware of the overall trend direction. If the trend is up, you should be looking for bullish reversals or continuations. If the trend is down, you should be looking for bearish reversals or continuations.
This script essentially provides a visual representation of a trading strategy that automatically adjusts stop-loss levels based on market volatility (ATR). It also includes signals for entering long or short positions and visually highlights these signals on the chart.

sᴛᴀɢᴇ ᴀɴᴀʏʟsɪsStage analysis is a technical analysis approach that involves categorizing a stock's price movements into different stages to help traders and investors make more informed decisions. It was popularized by Stan Weinstein in his book, "Secrets for Profiting in Bull and Bear Markets." The stages are used to identify the overall trend and to time entries and exits in the market. Here's an explanation of the typical stages in stage analysis:
1. **Stage 1: Accumulation Phase**
- In this stage, the stock is in a downtrend or has been trading sideways for an extended period.
- Volume is relatively low, indicating that institutions and smart money may be quietly accumulating shares.
- The stock may test and hold support levels, showing signs of stability.
- The goal for traders in this stage is to identify the potential for a trend reversal.
2. **Stage 2: Markup (Bull Market) Phase**
- This is the stage where the stock starts a significant uptrend.
- Volume increases as institutional and retail investors become more interested in the stock.
- Technical indicators like moving averages and trendlines confirm the uptrend.
- Traders and investors look for buying opportunities during pullbacks or consolidations within the uptrend.
3. **Stage 3: Distribution Phase**
- In this stage, the stock's price begins to show signs of weakness.
- Volume might decrease as institutions and smart money start selling their positions.
- The stock may start forming a trading range or exhibit bearish chart patterns.
- Traders should consider taking profits or reducing exposure to the stock as it may enter a downtrend.
4. **Stage 4: Markdown (Bear Market) Phase**
- This is the stage where the stock enters a significant downtrend.
- Volume may remain elevated as selling pressure dominates.
- Technical indicators confirm the downtrend.
- Traders and investors should avoid buying the stock and may consider short-selling or staying on the sidelines.
Stage analysis helps traders and investors make decisions based on the current stage of a stock's price movement. The goal is to enter during the accumulation phase or early in the markup phase and exit during the distribution phase or before the markdown phase to maximize profits and minimize losses.
