DMI StrategyThis strategy is based on DMI indicator. It helps me to identify base or top of the script. I mostly use this script to trade in Nifty bank options, even when the signal comes in nifty. It can be used to trade in other scripts as well. Pivot points can also be used to take entry. Long entry is taken when DI+(11) goes below 10 and DI-(11) goes above 40, whereas short entry is taken when DI-(11) goes below 10 and DI+(11) goes above 40.
For bank nifty, I take the trade in the strike price for which the current premium is nearby 300, with the SL of 20%. If premium goes below 10% I buy one more lot to average, but exit if the premium goes below 20% of the first entry. If the trade moves in the correct direction, we need to start trailing our stoploss or exit at the pre-defined target.
Please have a look at strategy tester to back test.

Buy/Sell on the levelsThis script is generally
My describe is:
There are a lot of levels we would like to buy some crypto.
When the price has crossed the level-line - we buy, but only if we have the permission in array(2)
When we have bought the crypto - we lose the permission for buy for now(till we will sell it on the next higher level)
When we sell some crypto(on the buying level + 1) we have the permission again.
There also are 2 protect indicators. We can buy if these indicators both green only(super trend and PIVOT )

Release Notes: Hello there,
Uncomment this section before use for real trade:
if array.get(price_to_sellBue, i) >= open and array.get(price_to_sellBue, i) <= close// and
//direction < 0 and permission_for_buy != 0
Here is my script.
In general - this is incredible simple script to use and understand.
First of all You can see this script working with only long orders, it means we going to get money if crypto grows only. Short orders we need to close the position on time.
In this script we buy crypto and sell with step 1% upper.
You can simply change the step by changing the price arrays.
Please note, if You want to see where the levels of this script is You Have to copy the next my indicator called LEVEL 1%
In general - if the price has across the price-level we buy some crypto and loose permission for buying for this level till we sell some crypto. There is ''count_of_orders" array field with value 2. When we bought some crypto the value turns to 0. 0 means not allowed to by on this level!!! The script buy if the bar is green only(last tick).
The script check every level(those we can see in "price_to_sellBue" array).
If the price across one of them - full script runs. After buying(if it possible) we check is there any crypto for sell on the level.
We check all levels below actual level( of actual level - ''i'' than we check all levels from 0 to i-1).
If there is any order that has value 0 in count of orders and index <= i-1 - we count it to var SELL amount and in the end of loop sell all of it.
Pay attention - it sells only if price across the level with red bar AND HAS ORDERS TO SELL WHICH WAS BOUGHT BELOW!!!
In Strategy tester it shows not-profitables orders sometimes, because if You have old Long position - it sells it first. First in - first out.
If the price goes down for a long time and You sell after 5 buys You sell the first of it with the highest value.
There is 2 protection from horrible buying in this strategy. The first one - Supertrend. If the supertrend is red - there is no permission for buy.
The second one - something between PIVOT and supertrend but with switcher.
If the price across last minimum - switcher is red - no permission for buy and the actual price becomes last minimum . The last maximum calculated for last 100 bars.
When the price across last maximum - switcher is green, we can buy. The last minimum calculation for last 100 bars, last maximum is actual price.
This two protections will save You from buying if price get crash down.
Enjoy my script.
Should You need the code or explanation, You have any ideas how to improve this crypt, contact me.
Vladyslav.

Bitcoin Risk Long Term indicatorOBJECTIVE:
The purpose of this indicator is to synthesize via an average several indicators from a wide choice with in order to simplify the reading of the bitcoin price and that on a long term vision.
Useful for those who want to see things simply, typically to make a smart DCA based on risk.
I originally used this script as a sandbox to understand and test the usefulness of several indicators, and to develop my PineScript skills, but finally the Risk Indicator output seems relevant so I decided to share it.
USAGE:
The selected indicators are the ones that I think give the best market bottoms, but the idea here is that anyone can try and use any set of indicators based on those preferences (post in comments if you find a relevant config)
Most of the indicator inputs are configurable. And some are not taken into account in the calculation of the Risk indicator because I consider them not relevant, this script is also a test more than a final version.
NOTES :
If you have any idea of adding an indicator, modification, criticism, bug found: share them, it is appreciated!
In the future I will create another more versatile Risk indicator that will not be focused on bitcoin in weekly. (this indicator is still usable on other assets and timeframe)
THANKS:
to Benjamin Cowen for inspiring me with his Bitcoin Risk metric
to Lazybear for his Wavetrend Indicator and all the scripts he shares
to Mabonyi for his Bitcoin Logarithmic Growth Curves & Zones script
to VuManChu for his VMC Cypher B Divergence
to the Trading view team for developing TV and PineScript
And to all the community for all the published codes that allowed me to progress and create this script

OBJECTIF :
L'objectif de cet indicateur est de synthétiser via une moyenne plusieurs indicateurs parmi un large choix avec afin de simplifier la lecture du cours de bitcoin et cela sur une vision longue terme.
Utile pour ceux qui veulent voir les choses simplement, typiquement faire un DCA intelligent en fonction du risque.
À la base j'ai utilisé ce script comme un bac à sable pour comprendre puis tester l'utilité de plusieurs indicateurs, et développer mes compétences PineScript, mais finalement l'output Risk Indicateur me semble pertinent donc autant le partager.
UTILISATION :
Les indicateurs sélectionnés sont ceux qui permettent selon moi d'avoir les meilleurs point bas de marché, mais l'idée ici est que chacun puisse essayer et utiliser n'importe quel ensemble d'indicateur en fonction de ces préférences (poster en commentaire si vous trouvez une configuration pertinente)
La plupart des inputs indicateurs sont paramétrables. Et certains ne sont pas pris en compte dans le calcul du Risk indicateur car je les estime non pertinent, ce script est aussi un essai plus qu'une version finale.
NOTES :
Si vous avez la moindre idée d'ajout d'indicateur, modification, critique, bug trouvé : partagez-les, c'est apprécié !
à l'avenir je créerais un autre Risk indicator plus polyvalent qui ne sera pas focalisé sur bitcoin en weekly. (cet indicateur est tout de même utilisable sur d'autre actif et timeframe)

WavesTrend visualization tool in Wave theory. Unlike Elliot waves, it has a constant pattern length. The formation consists of impulse and 3 corrections.
The script analyzes candle relationships in the currect trend, trend will be continueted until candle are not breaking trend rules.
Currently it supports 2 rulesets/wave variants:
Low - More sensitive (trend will change more ofter).
Meddium - Less sensitive ( trend will change less ofter).
Simultaneous observation of both types allows to detect consolidation before the overlapping movement and increase the probability of indicating the moment of the movement occurrence.
Trend visualization tools is a starting point that can be conected with different technics, to achive better performance.
"Waves" is the primary script of the Waves script series with test free period that consists of:
- Waves + XABCD
- Waves + ZOOnes
- Waves Change Signals
- ... and more in developement.
Features:
- Show Low and Middle type/order waves
- Draw both Wave types at once.
- Shadow mode that show second wave moved to the wave max/min bars.
- "Alfred" assist - Label notifications about trend confirmations or changes.

Trend Analysis Index [CC]The Trend Analysis Index was created by Adam White and not to be confused with the Trend Analysis Indicator that I also published. This indicator operates under the same idea but using a completely different calculation to achieve similar results. The idea behind this indicator is for a combination of volatility and trend confirmation. If the indicator is above it's signal line then the stock is very volatile and vice versa. If the stock is currently trending as in above a chosen moving average for example and the indicator falls below the signal line then there is a pretty good chance in a trend reversal. The recommended buy and sell system to use is to pair this indicator with a moving average crossover system which I have included in the script. Buy when the indicator is above it's signal and the shorter moving average crosses above the longer moving average. For selling you would do the same and sell when the indicator is above it's signal and the shorter moving average crosses below the longer moving average. I have included strong buy and sell signals in addition to the normal ones so stronger signals are darker in color and normal signals are lighter in color.
Let me know what other indicators or scripts you would like to see me publish!
[CLX][#01] Animation - Price Ticker (Marquee)This indicator displays a classic animated price ticker overlaid on the user’s current chart. It is possible to fully customize it or to select one of the predefined styles.
A detailed description will follow in the next few days.
Used Pinescript technics:
- varip (view/animation)
- tulip instance (config/codestructur)
- table (view/position)
By the way, for me, one of the coolest animated effects is by Duyck
We hope you enjoy it! 🎉

Impact Zones - Skylyne InvestingWhat is the Impact Zone system:
The creation of Impact Zones started with our love for trading the Bond Market. Impact Zones were originally specifically tailored for the Bond market and now have been mastered to capture most of the Asset Classes out in the market today (Please look at Impact Zone Settings section for asset classes covered by this script). The Impact Zone system is a zone break (or market level break) following system with specific take profit points already established for you on the open of the market day (depending on your asset timing will vary).
*This script was designed for Intraday Trading, Long term or Swing Trading is not recommended with this system
The script will create buy and sell signals on the break of the Impact Zones when specific criteria is met along with the break of the zone. You do not have to use only our signals provided, you can also create your own trading rules based on our script.
Items to highlight:
Skylyne Upper Zone: Green Zone
Skylyne Middle: Yellow Line
Skylyne Lower Zone: Red Zone
Skylyne Take Profit Lines: Purple Lines
Skylyne Average: Orange Line (dynamic support/resistance)
Skylyne Overnight Session: Dark Blue (No Trade Zones)
Skylyne Signals: Buy / Sell
You can think of the Upper Zone as a bull zone and Lower zone as a bear zone, when price enters these zones we want to start watching price action to determine direction the market will take on the break or specified zone, whether it be a break and reversal or a break and run. This can be confirmed with either our signals (buy & sell) or the use of the dynamic support and resistance line (Skylyne Average).
Our script is written to capture market zones and place then on your screen with ease, we also have programmed in specific take profits and stop loss levels we have found the market respects on the intraday trading based on the Impact Zone captured.
The Impact Zones and Take Profit Levels change at Market open everyday. The levels provided will stay on your chart until the next Market open where the Impact Zones and Levels will change to accommodate that trading Day.
We recommend only using that trading days levels, however; using past levels can help trades depending on the case
The three Trades we want to highlight are:
1. Break of Impact Zones
a. This trade is taken when a break of the impact zone happens either in the positive or negative direction and traded to the next zone or take profit line (stop losses can be set with zones or the dynamic skylyne average crossovers)
2. Break of Skylyne Average
a. This trade is taken when price action confirms a bullish or bearish bias on the break of the average line (we would close this trade on the reverse break of the Skylyne Average using the zones as targets)
3. Break of the Skylyne Mid:
a. This trade is taken when a break of the Skylyne Mid level occurs and we use the upper and lower bounds of the Impact Zones as take profit and stop losses
Impact Zone Settings:
*Trading Category and Overnight Category must match the Asset Class being viewed on chart for accurate signals
1. Trading Category
a. Bonds
b. Corn/Wheat
c. Stocks
d. Index Futures
e. Euro/Dollar
f. Gold/Silver
2. Overnight Category
a. Bonds
b. Corn/Wheat
c. Stocks
d. Index Futures
e. Euro/Dollar
f. Gold/Silver
3. Chart Aggregation Limit (Default Value is 25 minutes)
Impact Zone Overnight Trading:
Impact Zone Overnight sessions are highlighted in a dark blue color and we use these highlighted time sessions as a NO TRADE session. Our system was built to be traded during normal market trading hours and overnight sessions tend to be less predictive in terms of direction and or zone reliance. If you choose to trade overnight sessions with Impact Zones, make sure you make a very in depth trading plan and stick to the rules set for yourself.
Impact Zone Signals:
1. Signals for buy or sell of the asset class happen on breaks of the Impact Zones, and when specific criteria are met that we determined necessary to evaluate the overall trend of the market
2. Not every break of the Impact Zones will trigger a signal
3. No signal will be generated during overnight sessions, we recommend studying overnight sessions before beginning to create your own overnight trading session plans based on Impact Zones
4. When a signal is generated you will use the next take profit line (purple line) in the direction of your trade you are in. Other trading signals were discussed above
5. If while you are in a trade and the skylyne average (orange line) is broke in the opposite direction of your trade you will take this as a dynamic stop, and in some cases a dynamic take profit
Impact Zone Charting Timeframes:
1. Recommendation of using the 1 minute chart aggregation bars to maximize profits and limit losses
2. The script has a default charting aggregation limit of 25 minutes, adjustments to the input (in the settings) to increase the aggregation limit need to be made in order to use higher than 25 minute timeframes
Charting Example:
First note is to notice how our publish example uses the 1-minute timeframe aggregation, this is because our script was written to maximize profit on the 1 minute time frame. The script can be used on any time frame, however; make sure that you increase the aggregation limit input when using timeframes above 25 minutes.
From the chart included in the script post, you can notice that buy and sell signals happen only when specified criteria is met, and not every time there is a crossover of the Impact Zones there is a signal. You do not only have to trade the buy and sell signals that our system provides, however; our team believes that these signals are one of the best ways to trade the Impact Zone script. If you deviate from only using signals provided and choose to use the Impact Zones differently, we recommend using the next level, or zone, in the direction of your trade as your take profit (As described in trade we want to highlight section)
MTF Oscillator Framework [PineCoders]This framework allows Pine coders to quickly build a complete multi-timeframe oscillator from any calculation producing values around a centerline, whether the values are bounded or not. Insert your calculation in the script and you have a ready-to-publish MTF Oscillator offering a plethora of presentation options and features.
█ HOW TO USE THE FRAMEWORK
1 — Insert your calculation in the `f_signal()` function at the top of the "Helper Functions" section of the script.
2 — Change the script's name in the `study()` declaration statement and the `alertcondition()` text in the last part of the "Plots" section.
3 — Adapt the default value used to initialize the CENTERLINE constant in the script's "Constants" section.
4 — If you want to publish the script, copy/paste the following description in your new publication's description and replace the "OVERVIEW" section with a description of your calculations.
5 — Voilà!

█ OVERVIEW
This oscillator calculates a directional value of True Range. When a bar is up, the positive value of True Range is used. A negative value is used when the bar is down. When there is no movement during the bar, a zero value is generated, even if True Range is different than zero. Because the unit of measure of True Range is price, the oscillator is unbounded (it does not have fixed upper/lower bounds).
True Range can be used as a metric for volatility, but by using a signed value, this oscillator will show the directional bias of progressively increasing/decreasing volatility, which can make it more useful than an always positive value of True Range.
The True Range calculation appeared for the first time in J. Welles Wilder's New Concepts in Technical Trading Systems book published in 1978. Wilder's objective was to provide a reliable measure of the effective movement—or range—between two bars, to measure volatility. True Range is also the building block used to calculate ATR (Average True Range), which calculates the average of True Range values over a given period using the `rma` averaging method—the same used in the calculation of another of Wilder's remarkable creations: RSI.
█ CONCEPTS
This oscillator's design stems from a few key concepts.
Relative Levels
Other than the centerline, relative rather than absolute levels are used to identify levels of interest. Accordingly, no fixed levels correspond to overbought/oversold conditions. Relative levels of interest are identified using:
• A Donchian channel (historical highs/lows).
• The oscillator's position relative to higher timeframe values.
• Oscillator levels following points in time where a divergence is identified.
Higher timeframes
Two progressively higher timeframes are used to calculate larger-context values for the oscillator. The rationale underlying the use of timeframes higher than the chart's is that, while they change less frequently than the values calculated at the chart's resolution, they are more meaningful because more work (trader activity) is required to calculate them. Combining the immediacy of values calculated at the chart's resolution to higher timeframe values achieves a compromise between responsiveness and reliability.
Divergences as points of interest rather than directional clues
A very simple interpretation of what constitutes a divergence is used. A divergence is defined as a discrepancy between any bar's direction and the direction of the signal line on that same bar. No attempt is made to attribute a directional bias to divergences when they occur. Instead, the oscillator's level is saved and subsequent movement of the oscillator relative to the saved level is what determines the bullish/bearish state of the oscillator.
Conservative coloring scheme
Several additive coloring conditions allow the bull/bear coloring of the oscillator's main line to be restricted to specific areas meeting all the selected conditions. The concept is built on the premise that most of the time, an oscillator's value should be viewed as mere noise, and that somewhat like price, it only occasionally conveys actionable information.
█ FEATURES
Plots
• Three lines can be plotted. They are named Main line , Line 2 and Line 3 . You decide which calculation to use for each line:
• The oscillator's value at the chart's resolution.
• The oscillator's value at a medium timeframe higher than the chart's resolution.
• The oscillator's value at the highest timeframe.
• An aggregate line calculated using a weighed average of the three previous lines (see the Aggregate Weights section of Inputs to configure the weights).
• The coloring conditions, divergence levels and the Hi/Lo channel always apply to the Main line, whichever calculation you decide to use for it.
• The color of lines 2 and 3 are fixed but can be set in the "Colors" section of Inputs.
• You can change the thickness of each line.
• When the aggregate line is displayed, higher timeframe values are only used in its calculation when they become available in the chart's history,
otherwise the aggregate line would appear much later on the chart. To indicate when each higher timeframe value becomes available,
a small label appears near the centerline.
• Divergences can be shown as small dots on the centerline.
• Divergence levels can be shown. The level and fill are determined by the oscillator's position relative to the last saved divergence level.
• Bull/bear markers can be displayed. They occur whenever a new bull/bear state is determined by the "Main Line Coloring Conditions".
• The Hi/Lo (Donchian) channel can be displayed, and its period defined.
• The background can display the state of any one of 11 different conditions.
• The resolutions used for the higher timeframes can be displayed to the right of the last bar's value.
• Four key values are always displayed in the Data Window (fourth icon down to the right of your chart):
oscillator values for the chart, medium and highest timeframes, and the oscillator's instant value before it is averaged.
Main Line Coloring Conditions
• Nine different conditions can be selected to determine the bull/bear coloring of the main line. All conditions set to "ON" must be met to determine the bull/bear state.
• A volatility state can also be used to filter the conditions.
• When the coloring conditions and the filter do not allow for a bull/bear state to be determined, the neutral color is used.
Signal
• Seven different averages can be used to calculate the average of the oscillator's value.
• The average's period can be set. A period of one will show the instant value of the oscillator,
provided you don't use linear regression or the Hull MA as they do not work with a period of one.
• An external signal can be used as the oscillator's instant value. If an already averaged external value is used, set the period to one in this indicator.
• For the cases where an external signal is used, a centerline value can be set.
Higher Timeframes
• The two higher timeframes are named Medium timeframe and Highest timeframe . They can be determined using one of three methods:
• Auto-steps: the higher timeframes are determined using the chart's resolution. If the chart uses a seconds resolution, for example,
the medium and highest resolutions will be 15 and 60 minutes.
• Multiples: the timeframes are calculated using a multiple of the chart's resolution, which you can set.
• Fixed: the set timeframes do not change with the chart's resolution.
Repainting
• Repainting can be controlled separately for the chart's value and the higher timeframe values.
• The default is a repainting chart value and non-repainting higher timeframe values. The Aggregate line will thus repaint by default,
as it uses the chart's value along with the higher timeframes values.
Aggregate Weights
• The weight of each component of the Aggregate line can be set.
• The default is equal weights for the three components, meaning that the chart's value accounts for one third of the weight in the Aggregate.
High Volatility
• This provides control over the volatility filter used in the Main line's coloring conditions and the background display.
• Volatility is determined to be high when the short-term ATR is greater than the long-term ATR.
Colors
• You can define your own colors for all of the oscillator's plots.
• The default colors will perform well on both white and black chart backgrounds.
Alerts
• An alert can be defined for the script. The alert will trigger whenever a bull/bear marker appears in the indicator's display.
The particular combination of coloring conditions and the display of bull/bear markers when you create the alert will thus determine when the alert triggers.
Once the alerts are created, subsequent changes to the conditions controlling the display of markers will not affect the existing alert(s).
• You can create multiple alerts from this script, each triggering on different conditions.
Backtesting & Trading Engine Signal Line
• An invisible plot named "BTE Signal" is provided. It can be used as an entry signal when connected to the PineCoders Backtesting & Trading Engine as an external input.
It will generate an entry whenever a marker is displayed.
Look first. Then leap.
TA Basics: further "Steps" with our Moving AverageSo far in this series of posts, we have worked thru creating a basic zero-lag moving average, then moved forward all the way to coding a "Fibonacci" Weighted Moving Average.
in this post we take a look at a technique that can help traders minimize noise in the underlying data and get better insight on the changes that are happening in the data series represented by the moving average. we'll look at adding "stepping" to our Fibonacci Moving Average as an example. we introduce the Stepping Fibonacci Moving Average , or Step_FiMA
note that you can use the same technique with any plot you may have. feel free to copy or leverage the relevant parts of the script - the script is commented to make this easier.
How is this useful?
==================
with "stepping", you get your indicator to "round" the outcome into pre-specified bands or ranges. this works very similar to how, for example, range or Renko charts work. you can easily see the difference in the chart above once we look at a non-stepped and a stepping moving average of the same length side-by-side
the more granular your timeframe is, you will see the effect of the stepping clearer - here's how the same chart looks when we go into the 1-hr aggregation
Notes about this script
====================
there are couple of pieces i wanted to highlight in the script if you plan to use some of it :
1 - the step(x) function is meant to try to automatically pick the best "suitable" step size based on the range of the underlying series (for example, the closing price). these ranges i included here in the code are just my own "best choices" - you are totally welcome to adjust these ranges and the resulting step size to your own preference
2 - we applied the stepping as a user-choice. user can choose a manual entry, or "0" to get the code to automatically pick the step size, or enter -1 (or actually any value below zero) to cancel the stepping option altogether - this gives us some flexibility on how to use the stepping in an indicator
3 - very important (and somehow confusing): on the "rounding" approach:
the magic math formula that actually creates the stepping is this one
result = round(input / step) * step
now, this tells the script to "round" the result up or down (the basic rounding) -- so for example, a price of 17 with a step of 5 would be rounded (down) to 15, where as a price of 18 would be rounded "up" to 20 -- this is not the way some of us would expect or want, cause the price never reached 20 and they would want an 18 to still be rounded to 15 - and the stepping line not to show 20 *until* the price actually hits or exceeds 20 -- in that case, you would need to replace the function "round" with the function "floor" --
so the new formula becomes: floor(input / step) * step
-- in an ideal world, we can make this rounding choice a user-option in the settings -- maybe in an improved version
4 - we kept the smoothing option, and it takes place before the stepping is applied - we continue to use that smoothing to further minimize the level changes in the FiMA line.
I hope you find this script useful in your journey with technical analysis and DIY scripting, and good luck in your trading.
Support Resistance - DynamicThis is Dynamic Support / Resistance script.
How it Works?
It finds Pivot Points and creates channels for each Pivot Point. Channel size is calculated by (Highest - Lowest) * %Channel_size in Loopback Period. After creating channels it calculates that how many Pivot Points in the channels. more Pivot Points in channel means stronger Support/Resistance. in the option menu there is S/R Strength, this is the minimum number of Pivot Points that each channel must contain to be S/R. calculation starts from last pivot point and go back for "loopback period" which is 300 by default. so last Pivot Points have more priority. Finally after calculating Support/Resistance it draws lines.
Number of Support/Resistance line is Dynamic and up to 20 lines, that means number of lines changes dynamically. you can see how the script puts Suppport/Resistance lines dynamically by "Replay" button. (if I have time I will try to put a video)
Currently the scripts checks up to 40 pivot points in loopback period. it shows up to 20 S/Rs only for visible area in the chart.
There is option to Show S/R lines as Solid, Dotted or Dashed.
Enjoy!
Plotchar - How to draw external symbols on a chartHey everyone
It's been a while :) but still on holidays and working on the website. I'll resume the scripts sharing shortly once I'll get back home
For today, I wanted to share a very useful script that is going to make you a top of money 100% guaranteed and you'll even have a Lamborghini delivered at your place by tomorrow... (imagine some followers would believe me for this)
This "script" is a proof of concept that you can draw external Unicode symbols on a chart.
If you're tired with the plotshape shapes by default, you can use some others - I usually find mine there emojipedia.org
What are the use cases?
- Draw a dead skeleton when your stop-loss is hit
- Draw a winning cup when your take profit is hit
- Draw a coffin when you run out of capital
FAQ
Q: Does this script has any interest?
A: I'm not sure myself
Q: Will you make money using it?
A: I'm not a financial advisor but ... very likely NO
Q: Is it cool though?
A: Hell yeah!!
Be sure to hit the thumbs up so that I'll share real scripts the next times and not "joke scripts". I promise it's the first and last time I'm sharing such a script

How to avoid repainting when using security() - PineCoders FAQNOTE
The non-repainting technique in this publication that relies on bar states is now deprecated, as we have identified inconsistencies that undermine its credibility as a universal solution. The outputs that use the technique are still available for reference in this publication. However, we do not endorse its usage. See this publication for more information about the current best practices for requesting HTF data and why they work.
This indicator shows how to avoid repainting when using the security() function to retrieve information from higher timeframes.
What do we mean by repainting?
Repainting is used to describe three different things, in what we’ve seen in TV members comments on indicators:
1. An indicator showing results that change during the realtime bar, whether the script is using the security() function or not, e.g., a Buy signal that goes on and then off, or a plot that changes values.
2. An indicator that uses future data not yet available on historical bars.
3. An indicator that uses a negative offset= parameter when plotting in order to plot information on past bars.
The repainting types we will be discussing here are the first two types, as the third one is intentional—sometimes even intentionally misleading when unscrupulous script writers want their strategy to look better than it is.
Let’s be clear about one thing: repainting is not caused by a bug ; it is caused by the different context between historical bars and the realtime bar, and script coders or users not taking the necessary precautions to prevent it.
Why should repainting be avoided?
Repainting matters because it affects the behavior of Pine scripts in the realtime bar, where the action happens and counts, because that is when traders (or our systems) take decisions where odds must be in our favor.
Repainting also matters because if you test a strategy on historical bars using only OHLC values, and then run that same code on the realtime bar with more than OHLC information, scripts not properly written or misconfigured alerts will alter the strategy’s behavior. At that point, you will not be running the same strategy you tested, and this invalidates your test results , which were run while not having the additional price information that is available in the realtime bar.
The realtime bar on your charts is only one bar, but it is a very important bar. Coding proper strategies and indicators on TV requires that you understand the variations in script behavior and how information available to the script varies between when the script is running on historical and realtime bars.
How does repainting occur?
Repainting happens because of something all traders instinctively crave: more information. Contrary to trader lure, more information is not always better. In the realtime bar, all TV indicators (a.k.a. studies ) execute every time price changes (i.e. every tick ). TV strategies will also behave the same way if they use the calc_on_every_tick = true parameter in their strategy() declaration statement (the parameter’s default value is false ). Pine coders must decide if they want their code to use the realtime price information as it comes in, or wait for the realtime bar to close before using the same OHLC values for that bar that would be used on historical bars.
Strategy modelers often assume that using realtime price information as it comes in the realtime bar will always improve their results. This is incorrect. More information does not necessarily improve performance because it almost always entails more noise. The extra information may or may not improve results; one cannot know until the code is run in realtime for enough time to provide data that can be analyzed and from which somewhat reliable conclusions can be derived. In any case, as was stated before, it is critical to understand that if your strategy is taking decisions on realtime tick data, you are NOT running the same strategy you tested on historical bars with OHLC values only.
How do we avoid repainting?
It comes down to using reliable information and properly configuring alerts, if you use them. Here are the main considerations:
1. If your code is using security() calls, use the syntax we propose to obtain reliable data from higher timeframes.
2. If your script is a strategy, do not use the calc_on_every_tick = true parameter unless your strategy uses previous bar information to calculate.
3. If your script is a study and is using current timeframe information that is compared to values obtained from a higher timeframe, even if you can rely on reliable higher timeframe information because you are correctly using the security() function, you still need to ensure the realtime bar’s information you use (a cross of current close over a higher timeframe MA, for example) is consistent with your backtest methodology, i.e. that your script calculates on the close of the realtime bar. If your system is using alerts, the simplest solution is to configure alerts to trigger Once Per Bar Close . If you are not using alerts, the best solution is to use information from the preceding bar. When using previous bar information, alerts can be configured to trigger Once Per Bar safely.
What does this indicator do?
It shows results for 9 different ways of using the security() function and illustrates the simplest and most effective way to avoid repainting, i.e. using security() as in the example above. To show the indicator’s lines the most clearly, price on the chart is shown with a black line rather than candlesticks. This indicator also shows how misusing security() produces repainting. All combinations of using a 0 or 1 offset to reference the series used in the security() , as well as all combinations of values for the gaps= and lookahead= parameters are shown.
The close in the call labeled “BEST” means that once security has reached the upper timeframe (1 day in our case), it will fetch the previous day’s value.
The gaps= parameter is not specified as it is off by default and that is what we need. This ensures that the value returned by security() will not contain na values on any of our chart’s bars.
The lookahead security() to use the last available value for the higher timeframe bar we are using (the previous day, in our case). This ensures that security() will return the value at the end of the higher timeframe, even if it has not occurred yet. In our case, this has no negative impact since we are requesting the previous day’s value, with has already closed.
The indicator’s Settings/Inputs allow you to set:
- The higher timeframe security() calls will use
- The source security() calls will use
- If you want identifying labels printed on the lines that have no gaps (the lines containing gaps are plotted using very thick lines that appear as horizontal blocks of one bar in length)
For the lines to be plotted, you need to be on a smaller timeframe than the one used for the security() calls.
Comments in the code explain what’s going on.

I've had best results on 2h and 4h charts, I would not recommend to go below 1h, my general rule is to run the backtest on regular candle and make sure the backtest gives goodd result, but I use the script with autoview on heikin ashi.
Backtesting: You can change the dates of the backtest as you please, the backtest runs with 1000USD and 100% of equity orders, 3 ticks slippage and 0.1% commission.
For Autoview users: Will upload LONG ALERT and CLOSE LONG ALERT studies separately as I find it easier to see whats going on on 2 seperate indicators.
NO, IT DOES NOT REPAINT.
Stock Fundamentals Health Map
I came up with this script because, like a lot of us, I was always bugging AI about every ticker under the sun—asking for breakdowns, forecasts, you name it. But then it hit me: wouldn't it be way faster if I could just glance at the stock chart and get a quick snapshot of the company's financial guts right there?. Also, i didnt bother looking up another indicator script because i want it that way.
This "Stock Fundamentals Health Map" is basically your jumping-off point before you go full detective mode on the fundamentals. It's not meant to be the end-all-be-all, just a smart way to spot red flags or green lights without wasting hours.
Here's the deal: TradingView has this treasure of financial stats for stocks—stuff like margins, ratios, growth numbers, and more—pulled from their database after earnings drops. The script grabs 40 of those for your chosen period (Fiscal Year, Quarter, Half, or Trailing Twelve Months—you pick in the settings, and 40 because your broke boy doesnt have a premium TV sub).
But raw numbers? Meh, they're just digits. So, we grade 'em. Think of it like a report card for the company: Excellent (or "Great" in some spots), Good, Fair, Poor, or Weak (I called it "Pathetic" in my head at first, but toned it down).
How do we grade? Based on thresholds for each metric. For instance, a Gross Margin over 60%? Excellent, baby—that's premium efficiency. 40-60%? Solid Good. Down to under 10%? Weak, might wanna think twice. Same logic for everything else: Altman Z-Score (bankruptcy risk—higher is safer), Beneish M-Score (earnings manipulation detector—lower is cleaner), ROE, EV/EBITDA, you get the idea. But hey, maybe you disagree with my defaults. No sweat—the settings let you tweak every single threshold. Want to be stricter on Debt-to-Equity? Crank it up. Think Dividend Yield needs a higher bar for "Excellent"? Go for it. It's your world; I'm just scripting in it.
Dont know what all those metrics mean? Use the tool tip. Still dont understand? Keep the defaults.
Once graded, we don't stop there. Each metric gets a weight (default is 1, for equal love), but if you're obsessed with Free Cash Flow Margin over, say, Asset Turnover, bump its weight to 2, 5, or even 100. FFT FAFO. The script multiplies grades by weights, adds 'em up, and spits out an overall score and grade for the stock. Excellent if it's crushing it (90%+), down to Weak if it's wheezing. Plus, it categorizes the stock type—Growth, Value, Quality, Dividend, Momentum—based on how it scores in those buckets. Handy for knowing if it's a high-flyer or a dead divi.
And because not all stocks are created equal, it throws in sector-specific smarts. REITs get FFO and AFFO grades (funds from operations—key for real estate trusts). Tech and Healthcare? R&D Intensity to check if they're innovating or slacking. Energy folks get Capex-to-Sales (lower is better for efficiency in that capital-hungry world). Utilities? Debt Service Coverage to see if they can handle the bills. If your ticker doesn't fit those, it skips 'em—no junk data. You dont see all that because TV might have that data with N/A entered in it.
The output? A clean table slapped on your chart (top-right by default and cant move it around, because being at the top and being right is all you need). Columns for metrics, values + grades, all color-coded: green for Excellent, lime for Good, yellow Fair, orange Poor, red Weak. Headers in blue, text customizable—pick your colors, transparency, sizes. It's overlay=true, so it vibes with your price action without cluttering.
Sure, these numbers are just what TradingView's crack team inputs post-earnings—could be off, or laggy, or whatever. They don't predict the future; markets are wild. But it's a lot better than panic-buying on a hunch. Gives you that quick financial health map to ponder before you leap into a trade that could change your life... or your portfolio's. ;)

Color█ OVERVIEW
This library is a Pine Script® programming tool for advanced color processing. It provides a comprehensive set of functions for specifying and analyzing colors in various color spaces, mixing and manipulating colors, calculating custom gradients and schemes, detecting contrast, and converting colors to or from hexadecimal strings.
█ CONCEPTS
Color
Color refers to how we interpret light of different wavelengths in the visible spectrum . The colors we see from an object represent the light wavelengths that it reflects, emits, or transmits toward our eyes. Some colors, such as blue and red, correspond directly to parts of the spectrum. Others, such as magenta, arise from a combination of wavelengths to which our minds assign a single color.
The human interpretation of color lends itself to many uses in our world. In the context of financial data analysis, the effective use of color helps transform raw data into insights that users can understand at a glance. For example, colors can categorize series, signal market conditions and sessions, and emphasize patterns or relationships in data.
Color models and spaces
A color model is a general mathematical framework that describes colors using sets of numbers. A color space is an implementation of a specific color model that defines an exact range (gamut) of reproducible colors based on a set of primary colors , a reference white point , and sometimes additional parameters such as viewing conditions.
There are numerous different color spaces — each describing the characteristics of color in unique ways. Different spaces carry different advantages, depending on the application. Below, we provide a brief overview of the concepts underlying the color spaces supported by this library.
RGB
RGB is one of the most well-known color models. It represents color as an additive mixture of three primary colors — red, green, and blue lights — with various intensities. Each cone cell in the human eye responds more strongly to one of the three primaries, and the average person interprets the combination of these lights as a distinct color (e.g., pure red + pure green = yellow).
The sRGB color space is the most common RGB implementation. Developed by HP and Microsoft in the 1990s, sRGB provided a standardized baseline for representing color across CRT monitors of the era, which produced brightness levels that did not increase linearly with the input signal. To match displays and optimize brightness encoding for human sensitivity, sRGB applied a nonlinear transformation to linear RGB signals, often referred to as gamma correction . The result produced more visually pleasing outputs while maintaining a simple encoding. As such, sRGB quickly became a standard for digital color representation across devices and the web. To this day, it remains the default color space for most web-based content.
TradingView charts and Pine Script `color.*` built-ins process color data in sRGB. The red, green, and blue channels range from 0 to 255, where 0 represents no intensity, and 255 represents maximum intensity. Each combination of red, green, and blue values represents a distinct color, resulting in a total of 16,777,216 displayable colors.
CIE XYZ and xyY
The XYZ color space, developed by the International Commission on Illumination (CIE) in 1931, aims to describe all color sensations that a typical human can perceive. It is a cornerstone of color science, forming the basis for many color spaces used today. XYZ, and the derived xyY space, provide a universal representation of color that is not tethered to a particular display. Many widely used color spaces, including sRGB, are defined relative to XYZ or derived from it.
The CIE built the color space based on a series of experiments in which people matched colors they perceived from mixtures of lights. From these experiments, the CIE developed color-matching functions to calculate three components — X, Y, and Z — which together aim to describe a standard observer's response to visible light. X represents a weighted response to light across the color spectrum, with the highest contribution from long wavelengths (e.g., red). Y represents a weighted response to medium wavelengths (e.g., green), and it corresponds to a color's relative luminance (i.e., brightness). Z represents a weighted response to short wavelengths (e.g., blue).
From the XYZ space, the CIE developed the xyY chromaticity space, which separates a color's chromaticity (hue and colorfulness) from luminance. The CIE used this space to define the CIE 1931 chromaticity diagram , which represents the full range of visible colors at a given luminance. In color science and lighting design, xyY is a common means for specifying colors and visualizing the supported ranges of other color spaces.
CIELAB and Oklab
The CIELAB (L*a*b*) color space, derived from XYZ by the CIE in 1976, expresses colors based on opponent process theory. The L* component represents perceived lightness, and the a* and b* components represent the balance between opposing unique colors. The a* value specifies the balance between green and red , and the b* value specifies the balance between blue and yellow .
The primary intention of CIELAB was to provide a perceptually uniform color space, where fixed-size steps through the space correspond to uniform perceived changes in color. Although relatively uniform, the color space has been found to exhibit some non-uniformities, particularly in the blue part of the color spectrum. Regardless, modern applications often use CIELAB to estimate perceived color differences and calculate smooth color gradients.
In 2020, a new LAB-oriented color space, Oklab , was introduced by Björn Ottosson as an attempt to rectify the non-uniformities of other perceptual color spaces. Similar to CIELAB, the L value in Oklab represents perceived lightness, and the a and b values represent the balance between opposing unique colors. Oklab has gained widespread adoption as a perceptual space for color processing, with support in the latest CSS Color specifications and many software applications.
Cylindrical models
A cylindrical-coordinate model transforms an underlying color model, such as RGB or LAB, into an alternative expression of color information that is often more intuitive for the average person to use and understand.
Instead of a mixture of primary colors or opponent pairs, these models represent color as a hue angle on a color wheel , with additional parameters that describe other qualities such as lightness and colorfulness (a general term for concepts like chroma and saturation). In cylindrical-coordinate spaces, users can select a color and modify its lightness or other qualities without altering the hue.
The three most common RGB-based models are HSL (Hue, Saturation, Lightness), HSV (Hue, Saturation, Value), and HWB (Hue, Whiteness, Blackness). All three define hue angles in the same way, but they define colorfulness and lightness differently. Although they are not perceptually uniform, HSL and HSV are commonplace in color pickers and gradients.
For CIELAB and Oklab, the cylindrical-coordinate versions are CIELCh and Oklch , which express color in terms of perceived lightness, chroma, and hue. They offer perceptually uniform alternatives to RGB-based models. These spaces create unique color wheels, and they have more strict definitions of lightness and colorfulness. Oklch is particularly well-suited for generating smooth, perceptual color gradients.
Alpha and transparency
Many color encoding schemes include an alpha channel, representing opacity . Alpha does not help define a color in a color space; it determines how a color interacts with other colors in the display. Opaque colors appear with full intensity on the screen, whereas translucent (semi-opaque) colors blend into the background. Colors with zero opacity are invisible.
In Pine Script, there are two ways to specify a color's alpha:
• Using the `transp` parameter of the built-in `color.*()` functions. The specified value represents transparency (the opposite of opacity), which the functions translate into an alpha value.
• Using eight-digit hexadecimal color codes. The last two digits in the code represent alpha directly.
A process called alpha compositing simulates translucent colors in a display. It creates a single displayed color by mixing the RGB channels of two colors (foreground and background) based on alpha values, giving the illusion of a semi-opaque color placed over another color. For example, a red color with 80% transparency on a black background produces a dark shade of red.
Hexadecimal color codes
A hexadecimal color code (hex code) is a compact representation of an RGB color. It encodes a color's red, green, and blue values into a sequence of hexadecimal ( base-16 ) digits. The digits are numerals ranging from `0` to `9` or letters from `a` (for 10) to `f` (for 15). Each set of two digits represents an RGB channel ranging from `00` (for 0) to `ff` (for 255).
Pine scripts can natively define colors using hex codes in the format `#rrggbbaa`. The first set of two digits represents red, the second represents green, and the third represents blue. The fourth set represents alpha . If unspecified, the value is `ff` (fully opaque). For example, `#ff8b00` and `#ff8b00ff` represent an opaque orange color. The code `#ff8b0033` represents the same color with 80% transparency.
Gradients
A color gradient maps colors to numbers over a given range. Most color gradients represent a continuous path in a specific color space, where each number corresponds to a mix between a starting color and a stopping color. In Pine, coders often use gradients to visualize value intensities in plots and heatmaps, or to add visual depth to fills.
The behavior of a color gradient depends on the mixing method and the chosen color space. Gradients in sRGB usually mix along a straight line between the red, green, and blue coordinates of two colors. In cylindrical spaces such as HSL, a gradient often rotates the hue angle through the color wheel, resulting in more pronounced color transitions.
Color schemes
A color scheme refers to a set of colors for use in aesthetic or functional design. A color scheme usually consists of just a few distinct colors. However, depending on the purpose, a scheme can include many colors.
A user might choose palettes for a color scheme arbitrarily, or generate them algorithmically. There are many techniques for calculating color schemes. A few simple, practical methods are:
• Sampling a set of distinct colors from a color gradient.
• Generating monochromatic variants of a color (i.e., tints, tones, or shades with matching hues).
• Computing color harmonies — such as complements, analogous colors, triads, and tetrads — from a base color.
This library includes functions for all three of these techniques. See below for details.
█ CALCULATIONS AND USE
Hex string conversion
The `getHexString()` function returns a string containing the eight-digit hexadecimal code corresponding to a "color" value or set of sRGB and transparency values. For example, `getHexString(255, 0, 0)` returns the string `"#ff0000ff"`, and `getHexString(color.new(color.red, 80))` returns `"#f2364533"`.
The `hexStringToColor()` function returns the "color" value represented by a string containing a six- or eight-digit hex code. The `hexStringToRGB()` function returns a tuple containing the sRGB and transparency values. For example, `hexStringToColor("#f23645")` returns the same value as color.red .
Programmers can use these functions to parse colors from "string" inputs, perform string-based color calculations, and inspect color data in text outputs such as Pine Logs and tables.
Color space conversion
All other `get*()` functions convert a "color" value or set of sRGB channels into coordinates in a specific color space, with transparency information included. For example, the tuple returned by `getHSL()` includes the color's hue, saturation, lightness, and transparency values.
To convert data from a color space back to colors or sRGB and transparency values, use the corresponding `*toColor()` or `*toRGB()` functions for that space (e.g., `hslToColor()` and `hslToRGB()`).
Programmers can use these conversion functions to process inputs that define colors in different ways, perform advanced color manipulation, design custom gradients, and more.
The color spaces this library supports are:
• sRGB
• Linear RGB (RGB without gamma correction)
• HSL, HSV, and HWB
• CIE XYZ and xyY
• CIELAB and CIELCh
• Oklab and Oklch
Contrast-based calculations
Contrast refers to the difference in luminance or color that makes one color visible against another. This library features two functions for calculating luminance-based contrast and detecting themes.
The `contrastRatio()` function calculates the contrast between two "color" values based on their relative luminance (the Y value from CIE XYZ) using the formula from version 2 of the Web Content Accessibility Guidelines (WCAG) . This function is useful for identifying colors that provide a sufficient brightness difference for legibility.
The `isLightTheme()` function determines whether a specified background color represents a light theme based on its contrast with black and white. Programmers can use this function to define conditional logic that responds differently to light and dark themes.
Color manipulation and harmonies
The `negative()` function calculates the negative (i.e., inverse) of a color by reversing the color's coordinates in either the sRGB or linear RGB color space. This function is useful for calculating high-contrast colors.
The `grayscale()` function calculates a grayscale form of a specified color with the same relative luminance.
The functions `complement()`, `splitComplements()`, `analogousColors()`, `triadicColors()`, `tetradicColors()`, `pentadicColors()`, and `hexadicColors()` calculate color harmonies from a specified source color within a given color space (HSL, CIELCh, or Oklch). The returned harmonious colors represent specific hue rotations around a color wheel formed by the chosen space, with the same defined lightness, saturation or chroma, and transparency.
Color mixing and gradient creation
The `add()` function simulates combining lights of two different colors by additively mixing their linear red, green, and blue components, ignoring transparency by default. Users can calculate a transparency-weighted mixture by setting the `transpWeight` argument to `true`.
The `overlay()` function estimates the color displayed on a TradingView chart when a specific foreground color is over a background color. This function aids in simulating stacked colors and analyzing the effects of transparency.
The `fromGradient()` and `fromMultiStepGradient()` functions calculate colors from gradients in any of the supported color spaces, providing flexible alternatives to the RGB-based color.from_gradient() function. The `fromGradient()` function calculates a color from a single gradient. The `fromMultiStepGradient()` function calculates a color from a piecewise gradient with multiple defined steps. Gradients are useful for heatmaps and for coloring plots or drawings based on value intensities.
Scheme creation
Three functions in this library calculate palettes for custom color schemes. Scripts can use these functions to create responsive color schemes that adjust to calculated values and user inputs.
The `gradientPalette()` function creates an array of colors by sampling a specified number of colors along a gradient from a base color to a target color, in fixed-size steps.
The `monoPalette()` function creates an array containing monochromatic variants (tints, tones, or shades) of a specified base color. Whether the function mixes the color toward white (for tints), a form of gray (for tones), or black (for shades) depends on the `grayLuminance` value. If unspecified, the function automatically chooses the mix behavior with the highest contrast.
The `harmonyPalette()` function creates a matrix of colors. The first column contains the base color and specified harmonies, e.g., triadic colors. The columns that follow contain tints, tones, or shades of the harmonic colors for additional color choices, similar to `monoPalette()`.
█ EXAMPLE CODE
The example code at the end of the script generates and visualizes color schemes by processing user inputs. The code builds the scheme's palette based on the "Base color" input and the additional inputs in the "Settings/Inputs" tab:
• "Palette type" specifies whether the palette uses a custom gradient, monochromatic base color variants, or color harmonies with monochromatic variants.
• "Target color" sets the top color for the "Gradient" palette type.
• The "Gray luminance" inputs determine variation behavior for "Monochromatic" and "Harmony" palette types. If "Auto" is selected, the palette mixes the base color toward white or black based on its brightness. Otherwise, it mixes the color toward the grayscale color with the specified relative luminance (from 0 to 1).
• "Harmony type" specifies the color harmony used in the palette. Each row in the palette corresponds to one of the harmonious colors, starting with the base color.
The code creates a table on the first bar to display the collection of calculated colors. Each cell in the table shows the color's `getHexString()` value in a tooltip for simple inspection.

ZenAlgo - BenderThis script combines several volume-based methodologies into a single chart overlay to help traders analyze market participation and volume distribution. It aggregates volume from multiple sources—spot and perpetual markets across different exchanges—and processes it to display various insights directly on the chart.
The script provides a detailed view of both individual-bar volume and broader aggregated trends. It calculates certain values, plots different shapes and overlays, and includes an optional informational table. However, it does not offer financial signals or predict future price movements. Instead, it presents multiple volume and range-related highlights for educational or analytical observations.
Below is a detailed breakdown of the core elements in this script:
Core Data Calculation and Aggregation
To build a comprehensive volume picture, the script retrieves volume data from multiple predefined exchanges for both Spot and Perpetual pairs. The volume for each bar is processed in Aggregated mode , meaning it combines data across selected sources to produce a single composite volume value.
The script applies average-based aggregation to calculate the final volume figures. The total volume is then used as the basis for further calculations, such as buy/sell volume decomposition and Delta analysis.
Buy/Sell Volume Decomposition
Each bar’s total volume is separated into an estimated buy portion and a sell portion. This decomposition uses logic that considers wick length, body size, and whether the bar closed higher or lower than it opened. The script assigns fractions of the total volume to the upper wick, lower wick, and body, then multiplies these by the total aggregated volume to estimate buy and sell volumes.
This breakdown is calculated separately for spot-only volume , perp-only volume , and their aggregated sums, allowing traders to analyze how much of each bar’s volume is estimated as "buy" or "sell."
Delta and Cumulative Delta
The script computes a Delta (buy volume minus sell volume) for each bar. A positive Delta suggests more buying during that bar, while a negative Delta suggests more selling.
It also computes Cumulative Delta , summing this Delta over 14 bars (a fixed period). This allows users to observe how short-term buy/sell imbalances accumulate over time.
Visual Bar Coloring (PVSRA Logic)
The script includes logic based on PVSRA (Price Volume Support Resistance Analysis) , which examines average volume over a recent lookback period to determine whether a bar meets certain "climax" or "above-average" thresholds.
Bars are categorized as:
Climax Up or Climax Down: If a bar meets strong volume and range conditions, it is identified as a high-activity bar.
Neutral Colors: Bars that do not meet the threshold are identified as standard volume bars.
Table Summaries
The script includes an optional Spot vs. Perpetual volume table that provides:
Aggregated Spot vs. Perpetual buy/sell volumes
The net difference between buying and selling
The total sum across all included sources
Percentage breakdown of buying vs. selling
A separate multi-timeframe table calculates volume-related metrics for fixed timeframes (15, 60, and 240 minutes), allowing traders to compare their current timeframe with broader trends.
Highlighted Shapes and Diamonds
The script places shape markers above or below bars when certain conditions are met, including:
Dots (circles): Representing a significant increase in net Delta compared to the previous bar.
Diamonds: Markers that appear when volume-based conditions align with predefined thresholds. These vary in size and include an optional "Hardcore Mode" , which applies stricter filtering.
Crossover Triangles: These appear when the internally computed Delta MA (a moving average of Delta) crosses above or below a predefined EMA.
These markers highlight notable changes in volume, Delta, or price action but do not constitute predictive trading signals.
Delta Averages and Overlaid EMAs
The script plots a histogram of the current net Delta (buy minus sell) . Additionally, a Delta Moving Average (Delta MA) is used for tracking trends. The Delta MA is plotted alongside predefined Exponential Moving Averages (EMAs) , such as:
A Delta MA calculated using an exponential moving average (EMA) over 21 bars.
A set of predefined EMAs (lengths such as 3, 5, 7, 10, 13, 16, 21, 25, etc.) plotted to visualize momentum changes.
Areas between these EMAs can be filled with translucent shading to highlight momentum shifts.
Comparing the Delta MA to the overlaid EMAs helps track changes in Delta momentum over time.
Interpreting the Elements
When using this script, consider the following:
Volume Aggregation: The script aggregates volume across multiple Spot and Perpetual sources to provide a broad market view.
Delta and Cumulative Delta: The Delta histogram may spike positively or negatively, highlighting areas of potential buying or selling pressure.
Table Data: If enabled, the tables display buy/sell volume splits for Spot and Perpetual markets, along with multi-timeframe comparisons.
EMA Overlays on Delta: The stacked EMAs help visualize short-term vs. longer-term Delta changes.
Shape Markers: Dots, diamonds, and triangles emphasize notable shifts in volume or Delta but do not imply recommendations for action.
Usage Tips
Toggle "Hardcore Mode" to apply stricter filtering to highlight conditions.
Enable or disable the Spot vs. Perpetual Table to see if the breakdown of volume sources is useful.
Use the multi-timeframe table to compare intraday data with broader trends.
If the chart appears too cluttered, toggle off features like PVSRA color tints or some EMAs to focus on specific elements.
Final Thoughts
This script integrates multiple volume-based calculations, range analysis, aggregated volume from predefined tickers, and various moving averages for Delta. Its visual layers—color-coded bars, histograms, shape markers, and tables—offer a rich perspective on market activity.
Users can analyze these elements across any timeframe or market combination they prefer. The script does not provide buy/sell signals or make predictions —it is purely an analytical tool for understanding volume-based market dynamics.
Traders should interpret these visual elements according to their own strategy and trading approach.
