Strategy Stats [presentTrading]Hello! it's another weekend. This tool is a strategy performance analysis tool. Looking at the TradingView community, it seems few creators focus on this aspect. I've intentionally created a shared version. Welcome to share your idea or question on this.
█ Introduction and How it is Different
Strategy Stats is a comprehensive performance analytics framework designed specifically for trading strategies. Unlike standard strategy backtesting tools that simply show cumulative profits, this analytics suite provides real-time, multi-timeframe statistical analysis of your trading performance.
Multi-timeframe analysis: Automatically tracks performance metrics across the most recent time periods (last 7 days, 30 days, 90 days, 1 year, and 4 years)
Advanced statistical measures: Goes beyond basic metrics to include Information Coefficient (IC) and Sortino Ratio
Real-time feedback: Updates performance statistics with each new trade
Visual analytics: Color-coded performance table provides instant visual feedback on strategy health
Integrated risk management: Implements sophisticated take profit mechanisms with 3-step ATR and percentage-based exits
BTCUSD Performance
The table in the upper right corner is a comprehensive performance dashboard showing trading strategy statistics.
Note: While this presentation uses Vegas SuperTrend as the underlying strategy, this is merely an example. The Stats framework can be applied to any trading strategy. The Vegas SuperTrend implementation is included solely to demonstrate how the analytics module integrates with a trading strategy.
⚠️ Timeframe Limitations
Important: TradingView's backtesting engine has a maximum storage limit of 10,000 bars. When using this strategy stats framework on smaller timeframes such as 1-hour or 2-hour charts, you may encounter errors if your backtesting period is too long.
Recommended Timeframe Usage:
Ideal for: 4H, 6H, 8H, Daily charts and above
May cause errors on: 1H, 2H charts spanning multiple years
Not recommended for: Timeframes below 1H with long history
█ Strategy, How it Works: Detailed Explanation
The Strategy Stats framework consists of three primary components: statistical data collection, performance analysis, and visualization.
🔶 Statistical Data Collection
The system maintains several critical data arrays:
equityHistory: Tracks equity curve over time
tradeHistory: Records profit/loss of each trade
predictionSignals: Stores trade direction signals (1 for long, -1 for short)
actualReturns: Records corresponding actual returns from each trade
For each closed trade, the system captures:
float tradePnL = strategy.closedtrades.profit(tradeIndex)
float tradeReturn = strategy.closedtrades.profit_percent(tradeIndex)
int tradeType = entryPrice < exitPrice ? 1 : -1 // Direction
🔶 Performance Metrics Calculation
The framework calculates several key performance metrics:
Information Coefficient (IC):
The correlation between prediction signals and actual returns, measuring forecast skill.
IC = Correlation(predictionSignals, actualReturns)
Where Correlation is the Pearson correlation coefficient:
Correlation(X,Y) = (nΣXY - ΣXY) / √
Sortino Ratio:
Measures risk-adjusted return focusing only on downside risk:
Sortino = (Avg_Return - Risk_Free_Rate) / Downside_Deviation
Where Downside Deviation is:
Downside_Deviation = √
R_i represents individual returns, T is the target return (typically the risk-free rate), and n is the number of observations.
Maximum Drawdown:
Tracks the largest percentage drop from peak to trough:
DD = (Peak_Equity - Trough_Equity) / Peak_Equity * 100
🔶 Time Period Calculation
The system automatically determines the appropriate number of bars to analyze for each timeframe based on the current chart timeframe:
bars_7d = math.max(1, math.round(7 * barsPerDay))
bars_30d = math.max(1, math.round(30 * barsPerDay))
bars_90d = math.max(1, math.round(90 * barsPerDay))
bars_365d = math.max(1, math.round(365 * barsPerDay))
bars_4y = math.max(1, math.round(365 * 4 * barsPerDay))
Where barsPerDay is calculated based on the chart timeframe:
barsPerDay = timeframe.isintraday ?
24 * 60 / math.max(1, (timeframe.in_seconds() / 60)) :
timeframe.isdaily ? 1 :
timeframe.isweekly ? 1/7 :
timeframe.ismonthly ? 1/30 : 0.01
🔶 Visual Representation
The system presents performance data in a color-coded table with intuitive visual indicators:
Green: Excellent performance
Lime: Good performance
Gray: Neutral performance
Orange: Mediocre performance
Red: Poor performance
█ Trade Direction
The Strategy Stats framework supports three trading directions:
Long Only: Only takes long positions when entry conditions are met
Short Only: Only takes short positions when entry conditions are met
Both: Takes both long and short positions depending on market conditions
█ Usage
To effectively use the Strategy Stats framework:
Apply to existing strategies: Add the performance tracking code to any strategy to gain advanced analytics
Monitor multiple timeframes: Use the multi-timeframe analysis to identify performance trends
Evaluate strategy health: Review IC and Sortino ratios to assess predictive power and risk-adjusted returns
Optimize parameters: Use performance data to refine strategy parameters
Compare strategies: Apply the framework to multiple strategies to identify the most effective approach
For best results, allow the strategy to generate sufficient trade history for meaningful statistical analysis (at least 20-30 trades).
█ Default Settings
The default settings have been carefully calibrated for cryptocurrency markets:
Performance Tracking:
Time periods: 7D, 30D, 90D, 1Y, 4Y
Statistical measures: Return, Win%, MaxDD, IC, Sortino Ratio
IC color thresholds: >0.3 (green), >0.1 (lime), <-0.1 (orange), <-0.3 (red)
Sortino color thresholds: >1.0 (green), >0.5 (lime), <0 (red)
Multi-Step Take Profit:
ATR multipliers: 2.618, 5.0, 10.0
Percentage levels: 3%, 8%, 17%
Short multiplier: 1.5x (makes short take profits more aggressive)
Stop loss: 20%

4-Year Cycles [jpkxyz]Overview of the Script
I wanted to write a script that encompasses the wide-spread macro fund manager investment thesis: "Crypto is simply and expression of macro." A thesis pioneered by the likes of Raoul Pal (EXPAAM) , Andreesen Horowitz (A16Z) , Joe McCann (ASYMETRIC) , Bob Loukas and many more.
Cycle Theory Background:
The 2007-2008 financial crisis transformed central bank monetary policy by introducing:
- Quantitative Easing (QE): Creating money to buy assets and inject liquidity
- Coordinated global monetary interventions
Proactive 4-year economic cycles characterised by:
- Expansionary periods (low rates, money creation)
- Followed by contraction/normalisation
Central banks now deliberately manipulate liquidity, interest rates, and asset prices to control economic cycles, using monetary policy as a precision tool rather than a blunt instrument.
Cycle Characteristics (based on historical cycles):
- A cycle has 4 seasons (Spring, Summer, Fall, Winter)
- Each season with a cycle lasts 365 days
- The Cycle Low happens towards the beginning of the Spring Season of each new cycle
- This is followed by a run up throughout the Spring and Summer Season
- The Cycle High happens towards the end of the Fall Season
- The Winter season is characterised by price corrections until establishing a new floor in the Spring of the next cycle
Key Functionalities
1. Cycle Tracking
- Divides market history into 4-year cycles (Spring, Summer, Fall, Winter)
- Starts tracking cycles from 2011 (first cycle after the 2007 crisis cycle)
- Identifies and marks cycle boundaries
2. Visualization
- Colors background based on current cycle season
- Draws lines connecting:
- Cycle highs and lows
- Inter-cycle price movements
- Adds labels showing:
- Percentage gains/losses between cycles
- Number of days between significant points
3. Customization Options
- Allows users to customize:
- Colors for each season
- Line and label colors
- Label size
- Background opacity
Detailed Mechanism
Cycle Identification
- Uses a modulo calculation to determine the current season in the 4-year cycle
- Preset boundary years include 2015, 2019, 2023, 2027
- Automatically tracks and marks cycle transitions
Price Analysis
- Tracks highest and lowest prices within each cycle
- Calculates percentage changes:
- Intra-cycle (low to high)
- Inter-cycle (previous high to current high/low)
Visualization Techniques
- Background color changes based on current cycle season
- Dashed and solid lines connect significant price points
- Labels provide quantitative insights about price movements
Unique Aspects
1. Predictive Cycle Framework: Provides a structured way to view market movements beyond traditional technical analysis
2. Seasonal Color Coding: Intuitive visual representation of market cycle stages
3. Comprehensive Price Tracking: Captures both intra-cycle and inter-cycle price dynamics
4. Highly Customizable: Users can adjust visual parameters to suit their preferences
Potential Use Cases
- Technical analysis for long-term investors
- Identifying market cycle patterns
- Understanding historical price movement rhythms
- Educational tool for market cycle theory
Limitations/Considerations
- Based on a predefined 4-year cycle model (Liquidity Cycles)
- Historic Cycle Structures are not an indication for future performance
- May not perfectly represent all market behavior
- Requires visual interpretation
This script is particularly interesting for investors who believe in cyclical market theories and want a visual, data-driven representation of market stages.

Moving Average Crossover MonitorMoving Average Crossover Monitor: Gain Insight into Market Trends
The Moving Average Crossover Monitor is a specialized tool crafted for traders seeking to understand and predict market trends more effectively. This indicator's primary focus lies in analyzing consecutive candle movements above or below specified moving averages and providing predictive estimates based on historical data.
Key Features:
1. Consecutive Candle Tracking: The indicator meticulously counts and tracks the number of consecutive candles that close above or below a selected moving average (MA1). This tracking offers a tangible measure of trend persistence over time.
2. Historical Analysis for Future Prediction: By analyzing past trends, the indicator provides insights into potential future movements. It estimates the likelihood of upcoming candles continuing above or below the moving average based on historical patterns.
3. Dynamic Visualization: Moving averages (SMA, WMA, EMA) are dynamically plotted on the chart, clearly displaying crossover points and trend transitions.
How It Works:
1. Moving Average Calculation: Select your preferred moving average type (SMA, WMA, EMA) and define short and long periods. The indicator computes two moving averages (MA1 and MA2) based on these parameters.
2. Consecutive Candle Analysis:
- Above MA1: Tracks and counts consecutive candles closing above MA1, indicating potential bullish momentum.
- Below MA1: Tracks and counts consecutive candles closing below MA1, suggesting potential bearish sentiment.
3. Future Trend Prediction: Based on historical data of consecutive candle movements, the indicator estimates the likelihood of the next candle continuing in the same direction (above or below MA1).
Advantages for Traders:
1. Quantitative Insights: Use numerical data on consecutive candles to gauge trend strength and durability.
2. Predictive Analytics: Leverage historical patterns to anticipate future market movements and adjust trading strategies accordingly.
3. Decision Support Tool: Gain clarity on trend transitions, empowering timely and informed trading decisions.
Disclaimer:
This indicator is provided for educational purposes only and should not be considered as financial advice. Trading involves risks, and past performance is not indicative of future results. Traders should conduct their own analysis and exercise caution when making trading decisions based on any indicator or tool. Always consider risk management strategies and consult with a qualified financial advisor if needed.
Market Internals & InfoThis script provides various information on Market Internals and other related info. It was a part of the Daily Levels script but that script was getting very large so I decided to separate this piece of it into its own indicator. I plan on adding some additional features in the near future so stay tuned for those!
The script provides customizability to show certain market internals, tickers, and even Market Profile TPO periods.
Here is a summary of each setting:
NASDAQ and NYSE Breadth Ratio
- Ratio between Up Volume and Down Volume for NASDAQ and NYSE markets. This can help inform about the type of volume flowing in and out of these exchanges.
Advance/Decline Line (ADL)
The ADL focuses specifically on the number of advancing and declining stocks within an index, without considering their trading volume.
Here's how the ADL works:
It tracks the daily difference between the number of stocks that are up in price (advancing) and the number of stocks that are down in price (declining) within a particular index.
The ADL is a cumulative measure, meaning each day's difference is added to the previous day's total.
If there are more advancing stocks, the ADL goes up.
If there are more declining stocks, the ADL goes down.
By analyzing the ADL, investors can get a sense of how many stocks are participating in a market move.
Here's what the ADL can tell you:
Confirmation of Trends: When the ADL moves in the same direction as the underlying index (e.g., ADL rising with a rising index), it suggests broad participation in the trend and potentially stronger momentum.
Divergence: If the ADL diverges from the index (e.g., ADL falling while the index is rising), it can be a warning sign. This suggests that fewer stocks are participating in the rally, which could indicate a weakening trend.
Keep in mind:
The ADL is a backward-looking indicator, reflecting past market activity.
It's often used in conjunction with other technical indicators for a more complete picture.
TRIN Arms Index
The TRIN index, also called the Arms Index or Short-Term Trading Index, is a technical analysis tool used in the stock market to gauge market breadth and sentiment. It essentially compares the number of advancing stocks (gaining in price) to declining stocks (losing price) along with their trading volume.
Here's how to interpret the TRIN:
High TRIN (above 1.0): This indicates a weak market where declining stocks and their volume are dominating the market. It can be a sign of a potential downward trend.
Low TRIN (below 1.0): This suggests a strong market where advancing stocks and their volume are in control. It can be a sign of a potential upward trend.
TRIN around 1.0: This represents a more balanced market, where it's difficult to say which direction the market might be headed.
Important points to remember about TRIN:
It's a short-term indicator, primarily used for intraday trading decisions.
It should be used in conjunction with other technical indicators for a more comprehensive market analysis. High or low TRIN readings don't guarantee future price movements.
VIX/VXN
VIX and VXN are both indexes created by the Chicago Board Options Exchange (CBOE) to measure market volatility. They differ based on the underlying index they track:
VIX (Cboe Volatility Index): This is the more well-known index and is considered the "fear gauge" of the stock market. It reflects the market's expectation of volatility in the S&P 500 index over the next 30 days.
VXN (Cboe Nasdaq Volatility Index): This is a counterpart to the VIX, but instead gauges volatility expectations for the Nasdaq 100 index over the coming 30 days. The tech-heavy Nasdaq can sometimes diverge from the broader market represented by the S&P 500, hence the need for a separate volatility measure.
Both VIX and VXN are calculated based on the implied volatilities of options contracts listed on their respective indexes. Here's a general interpretation:
High VIX/VXN: Indicates a high level of fear or uncertainty in the market, suggesting investors expect significant price fluctuations in the near future.
Low VIX/VXN: Suggests a more complacent market with lower expectations of volatility.
Important points to remember about VIX and VXN:
They are forward-looking indicators, reflecting market sentiment about future volatility, not necessarily current market conditions.
High VIX/VXN readings don't guarantee a market crash, and low readings don't guarantee smooth sailing.
These indexes are often used by investors to make decisions about portfolio allocation and hedging strategies.
Inside/Outside Day
This provides a quick indication of it we are still trading inside or outside of yesterdays range and will show "Inside Day" or "Outside Day" based upon todays range vs. yesterday's range.
Custom Ticker Choices
Ability to add up to 5 other tickers that can be tracked within the table
Show Market Profile TPO
This only shows on timeframes less than 30m. It will show both the current TPO period and the remaining time within that period.
Table Customization
Provided drop downs to change the text size and also the location of the table.
TradeTrackerv2Library "TradeTrackerv2"
This library can be used to track (hypothetical) trades on the chart. Enter the Open, SL, and TP prices (or TP in R to have it calculated) and then call Trade.TrackTrade(barIndex). Keep track of your trades in an array and then simply call TradeTracker.UpdateAllTrades(close) to update all trades based on the current close price.
How to use:
1. Import the library, as always. I'm assuming the alias of "Tracker" below.
2. The Type Trade is exported, so generate a Trade object like newTrade = Tracker.Trade.new() .
3. Set the values for Open, SL, and TP. TP can be set either by price or by R, which will calculate the R based on the Open->SL range:
newTrade.priceOpen = 1.0
newTrade.priceSl = 0.5
newTrade.priceTp = 2.0
-- or in place of the third line above --
newTrade.rTp = 2
4. On each interval you want to update (whether that's per tick/close or on each bar), call trades.UpdateAllTrades(close) . This snippet assumes you have an array named trades (var trades = array.new()) .
In future updates, more customization options will be created. This is the initial prototype.

NUPL-Z For Loop🧠 Overview
NUPL-Z For Loop is a trend-following indicator built on Bitcoin’s on-chain Net Unrealized Profit/Loss (NUPL) metric. It uses a Z-scored transformation of NUPL and a custom loop-based scoring system to measure the consistency of directional movement. Rather than identifying tops and bottoms, this tool is designed to track sustained trends and filter out short-term noise, making it ideal for momentum-aligned strategies.
🧩 Key Features
Loop-Based Trend Logic: Assesses trend strength by summing the number of upward vs. downward moves in Z-scored NUPL across a custom lookback.
Z-Score Normalization: Applies long-term statistical normalization to NUPL to emphasize deviation from average behavior over time.
Threshold-Based Regime Shifts: Custom input thresholds define when trend strength is significant enough to trigger long or short signals.
Directional Market State Tracking: Internally tracks bullish, bearish, or neutral conditions to guide trend entries.
BTC-Focused On-Chain Analysis: Tailored specifically for Bitcoin using Market Cap and Realized Cap inputs.
🔍 How It Works
NUPL Calculation: Derived as the percentage of net unrealized profit relative to market cap: (MC - RMC) / MC * 100.
Z-Scoring: NUPL is normalized using a rolling mean and standard deviation over a long window (default 1300 days) to create a smoothed trend signal.
Directional Loop: A custom loop iterates from the start_loop to the end_loop, comparing the current Z-score to past values.
Each instance where NUPL_Z > NUPL_Z adds +1 to the score; otherwise, it subtracts -1.
This cumulative score reflects how consistently NUPL-Z has been trending.
Signal Logic:
Long signal when loop score exceeds long_threshold.
Short signal when score falls below short_threshold.
CD State Engine: Maintains the current trend regime (1 for long, -1 for short), which drives plot coloring and overlays.
🔁 Use Cases & Applications
Momentum Trend Filter: Detects and confirms sustained directional strength in BTC’s profit/loss positioning.
Noise Suppression: Avoids reactive signals from one-off spikes or dips in NUPL by requiring a consistent trend before confirming bias.
Best Suited for BTC: Designed specifically for Bitcoin’s price and on-chain structure, using its unique NUPL dynamics.
✅ Conclusion
NUPL-Z For Loop transforms a traditionally mean-reverting indicator into a trend-following signal engine. By scoring the consistency of movement in normalized NUPL, this tool identifies trend strength rather than reversal potential — providing more reliable context for momentum-aligned trades on Bitcoin.

Triad Trade MatrixOverview
Triad Trade Matrix is an advanced multi-strategy indicator built using Pine Script v5. It is designed to simultaneously track and display key trading metrics for three distinct trading styles on a single chart:
Swing Trading (Swing Supreme):
This mode captures longer-term trends and is designed for trades that typically span several days. It uses customizable depth and deviation parameters to determine swing signals.
Day Trading (Day Blaze):
This mode focuses on intraday price movements. It generates signals that are intended to be executed within a single trading session. The parameters for depth and deviation are tuned to capture more frequent, shorter-term moves.
Scalping (Scalp Surge):
This mode is designed for very short-term trades where quick entries and exits are key. It uses more sensitive parameters to detect rapid price movements suitable for scalping strategies.
Each trading style is represented by its own merged table that displays real-time metrics. The tables update automatically as new trading signals are generated.
Key Features
Multi-Style Tracking:
Swing Supreme (Large): For swing trading; uses a purple theme.
Day Blaze (Medium): For day trading; uses an orange theme.
Scalp Surge (Small): For scalping; uses a green theme.
Real-Time Metrics:
Each table displays key trade metrics including:
Entry Price: The price at which the trade was entered.
Exit Price: The price at which the previous trade was exited.
Position Size: Calculated as the account size divided by the entry price.
Direction: Indicates whether the trade is “Up” (long) or “Down” (short).
Time: The time when the trade was executed (formatted to hours and minutes).
Wins/Losses: The cumulative number of winning and losing trades.
Current Price & PnL: The current price on the chart and the profit/loss computed relative to the entry price.
Duration: The number of bars that the trade has been open.
History Column: A merged summary column that shows the most recent trade’s details (entry, exit, and result).
Customizability:
Column Visibility: Users can toggle individual columns (Ticker, Timeframe, Entry, Exit, etc.) on or off according to their preference.
Appearance Settings: You can customize the table border width, frame color, header background, and text colors.
History Toggle: The merged history column can be enabled or disabled.
Chart Markers: There is an option to show or hide chart markers (labels and lines) that indicate trade entries and exits on the chart.
Trade History Management:
The indicator maintains a rolling history (up to three recent trades per trading style) and displays the latest summary in the merged table.
This history column provides a quick reference to recent performance.
How It Works
Signal Generation & Trade Metrics
Trade Entry/Exit Calculation:
For each trading style, the indicator uses built-in functions (such as ta.lowestbars and ta.highestbars) to analyze price movements. Based on a customizable "depth" and "deviation" parameter, it determines the point of entry for a trade.
Swing Supreme: Uses larger depth/deviation values to capture swing trends.
Day Blaze: Uses intermediate values for intraday moves.
Scalp Surge: Uses tighter parameters to pick up rapid price changes.
Metrics Update:
When a new trade signal is generated (i.e., when the trade entry price is updated), the indicator calculates:
The current PnL as the difference between the current price and the entry price (or vice versa, depending on the trade direction).
The duration as the number of bars since the trade was opened.
The position size using the formula: accountSize / entryPrice.
History Recording:
Each time a new trade is triggered (i.e., when the entry price is updated), a summary string is created (showing entry, exit, and win/loss status) and appended to the corresponding trade history array. The merged table then displays the latest summary from this history.
Table Display
Merged Table Structure:
Each trading style (Swing Supreme, Day Blaze, and Scalp Surge) is represented by a table that has 15 columns. The columns are:
Trade Type (e.g., Swing Supreme)
Ticker
Timeframe
Entry Price
Exit Price
Position Size
Direction
Time of Entry
Account Size
Wins
Losses
Current Price
Current PnL
Duration (in bars)
History (the latest trade summary)
User Customization:
Through the settings panel, users can choose which columns to display.
If a column is toggled off, its cells will remain blank, allowing traders to focus on the metrics that matter most to them.
Appearance & Themes:
The table headers and cell backgrounds are customizable via color inputs. The trading style names are color-coded:
Swing Supreme (Large): Uses a purple theme.
Day Blaze (Medium): Uses an orange theme.
Scalp Surge (Small): Uses a green theme.

How the Indicator Works
Hourly H/L Analysis:
The indicator calculates the highest and lowest prices for each hour in the specified date range.
Each hourly high and low occurrence is recorded and aggregated into a table, with counts displayed for all 24 hours.
Users can toggle the visibility of empty cells (hours with no high/low occurrences) and adjust the table's design to suit their preferences.
Supports both 12-hour (AM/PM) and 24-hour formats.
Weekly H/L DOTW Analysis:
The indicator tracks the highest and lowest prices for each day of the week during the user-specified date range.
Highs and lows are identified for the entire week, and the specific days when they occur are recorded.
Counts for each day are aggregated and displayed in a table, with a "Totals" column summarizing the overall occurrences.
The analysis resets weekly, ensuring accurate tracking of high/low days.
Code Breakdown:
Data Aggregation:
The script uses arrays to store counts of high/low occurrences for both hourly and weekly intervals.
Daily data is fetched using the request.security() function, ensuring consistent results regardless of the chart's timeframe.
Weekly Reset Mechanism:
Weekly high/low values are reset at the start of a new week (Monday) to ensure accurate weekly tracking.
A processing flag ensures that weekly data is counted only once at the end of the week (Sunday).
Table Visualization:
Tables are created using the table.new() function, with customizable styles and positions.
Header rows, data rows, and totals are dynamically populated based on the aggregated data.
User Inputs:
Customization options include text colors, background colors, table positioning, label formatting, and date ranges.
Code Explanation
The script is structured into two main sections:
Hourly H/L Analysis:
This section captures and aggregates high/low occurrences for each hour of the day.
The logic is session-aware, allowing users to define custom session times (e.g., 22-hour futures sessions).
Data is displayed in a clean table format with hourly labels.
Weekly H/L DOTW Analysis:
This section tracks weekly highs and lows by day of the week.
Highs and lows are identified for each week, and counts are updated only once per week to prevent duplication.
A user-friendly table displays the counts for each day of the week, along with totals.
Both sections are completely independent of each other to avoid interference. This ensures that enabling or disabling one section does not impact the functionality of the other.

Parent Session Sweeps + Alert Killzone Ranges with Parent Session Sweep
Key Features:
1. Multiple Session Support: The script tracks three major trading sessions - Asia, London, and New York. Users can customize the timing of these sessions.
2. Killzone Visualization: The strategy visually represents each session's range, either as filled boxes or lines, allowing traders to easily identify key price levels.
3. Parent Session Logic: The core of the strategy revolves around identifying a "parent" session - a session that encompasses the range of the following session. This parent session becomes the basis for potential trade setups.
4. Sweep and Reclaim Setups: The strategy looks for price movements that sweep (break above or below) the parent session's high or low, followed by a reclaim of that level. This price action often indicates a potential reversal.
5. Risk-Reward Filtering: Each potential setup is evaluated based on a user-defined minimum risk-reward ratio, ensuring that only high-quality trade opportunities are considered.
6. Candle Close Filter: An optional filter that checks the characteristics of the candle that reclaims the parent session level, adding an extra layer of confirmation to the setup.
7. Performance Tracking: The strategy keeps track of bullish and bearish setup success rates, providing valuable feedback on its performance over time.
8. Visual Aids: The script draws lines to mark the parent session's high and low, making it easy for traders to identify key levels.
How It Works:
1. The script continuously monitors price action across the defined sessions.
2. When a session fully contains the range of the next session, it's identified as a potential parent session.
3. The strategy then waits for price to sweep either the high or low of this parent session.
4. If a sweep occurs, it looks for a reclaim of the swept level within the parameters set by the user.
5. If a valid setup is identified, the script generates an alert and places a trade (if backtesting or running live).
6. The strategy continues to monitor the trade for either reaching the target (opposite level of the parent session) or hitting the stop loss.
Considerations for Signals:
- Sweep: A break of the parent session's high or low.
- Reclaim: A close back inside the parent session range after a sweep.
- Candle Characteristics: Optional filter for the reclaim candle (e.g., bullish candle for long setups).
- Risk-Reward: Each setup must meet or exceed the user-defined minimum risk-reward ratio.
- Session Timing: The strategy is sensitive to the defined session times, which should be set according to the trader's preferred time zone.
This strategy aims to capitalize on institutional order flow and liquidity patterns in the forex market, providing traders with a systematic approach to identifying potential reversal points with favorable risk-reward profiles.

This provides traders with a momentum-based perspective on volume-weighted price movements.
User Guide & Implementation
1. Configuring AVWAPs for Optimal Use
Choose the mode for each AVWAP instance:
Fixed (set historical point)
Perpetual (rolling, continuously updated AVWAP)
Extension (projection from past AVWAP levels)
High Volume (anchored to highest volume bar)
None (disables the AVWAP line)
Adjust the length settings to fine-tune calculation sensitivity.
2. Utilizing Deviation Bands for Market Context

Intraday VWAPs (short-term momentum shifts)
Helps identify where institutional liquidity is positioned relative to price.
4. Activating the Oscillator for Momentum & Bias Confirmation
The oscillator converts AVWAP deviations into a normalized value.
Use overbought/oversold levels to determine strength and potential reversals.
Combine with other indicators (RSI, MACD) for confluence-based trading decisions.
Trading Applications & Strategies
5. Trend Confirmation & Institutional VWAP Tracking
If price consistently holds above the primary AVWAP, it signals a bullish trend.
If price remains below AVWAP, it indicates selling pressure and a bearish trend.
Monitor retests of AVWAP levels for potential trend continuation or reversal.
6. Dynamic Support & Resistance Levels
AVWAP lines act as dynamic floating support and resistance zones.
Price bouncing off AVWAP suggests continuation, whereas breakdowns indicate a shift in momentum.
Look for confluence with high-volume zones for stronger trade signals.
7. Mean Reversion & Statistical Edge Trading

OmegaTools - Enhancing Market Clarity with Precision Indicators
Globex time (New York Time)This indicator is designed to highlight and analyze price movements within the Globex session. Primarily geared toward the Globex Trap trading strategy, this tool visually identifies the session's high and low prices, allowing traders to better assess price action during extended hours. Here’s a comprehensive breakdown of its features and functionality:
Purpose
The "Globex Time (New York Time)" indicator tracks price levels during the Globex trading session, providing a clear view of overnight market activity. This session, typically running from 6 p.m. ET (18:00) until the following morning at 8:30 a.m. ET, is a critical period where significant market positioning can occur before the regular session opens. In the Globex Trap strategy, the session high and low are essential levels, as price movements around these areas often indicate potential support, resistance, or reversal zones, which traders use to set up entries or exits when the regular trading session begins.
Key Features
Customizable Session Start and End Times
The indicator allows users to specify the exact start and end times of the Globex session in New York time. The default settings are:
Start: 6 p.m. ET (18:00)
End: 8:30 a.m. ET
These settings can be adjusted to align with specific market hours or personal preferences.
Session High and Low Identification
Throughout the defined session, the indicator dynamically calculates and tracks:
Session High: The highest price reached within the session.
Session Low: The lowest price reached within the session.
These levels are essential for the Globex Trap strategy, as price action around them can indicate likely breakout or reversal points when regular trading resumes.
Vertical Lines for Session Start and End
The indicator draws vertical lines at both the session start and end times:
Session Start Line: A solid line marking the exact beginning of the Globex session.
Session End Line: A similar vertical line marking the session’s conclusion.
Both lines are customizable in terms of color and thickness, making it easy to distinguish the session boundaries visually on the chart.
Horizontal Lines for Session High and Low
At the end of the session, the indicator plots horizontal lines representing the Globex session's high and low levels. Users can customize these lines:
Color: Define specific colors for the session high (default: red) and session low (default: green) to easily differentiate them.
Line Style: Options to set the line style (solid, dashed, or dotted) provide flexibility for visual preferences and chart organization.
Automatic Reset for Daily Tracking
To adapt to the next trading day, the indicator resets the session high and low data once the current session ends. This reset prepares it to start tracking new levels at the beginning of the next session without manual intervention.
Practical Application in the Globex Trap Strategy
In the Globex Trap strategy, traders are primarily interested in price behavior around the high and low levels established during the overnight session. Common applications of this indicator for this strategy include:
Breakout Trades: Watching for price to break above the Globex high or below the Globex low, indicating potential momentum in the breakout direction.
Reversal Trades: Monitoring for failed breakouts or traps where price tests and rejects the Globex high or low, suggesting a reversal as liquidity is trapped in these zones.
Support and Resistance Zones: Using the session high and low as key support and resistance levels during the regular trading session, with potential entry or exit points when price approaches these areas.
Additional Configuration Options
Vertical Line Color and Width: Define the color and thickness of the vertical session start and end lines to match your chart’s theme.
Upper and Lower Line Colors and Styles: Customize the appearance of the session high and low horizontal lines by setting color and line style (solid, dashed, or dotted), making it easy to distinguish these critical levels from other chart markings.
Summary
This indicator is a valuable tool for traders implementing the Globex Trap strategy. It visually segments the Globex session and marks essential price levels, helping traders analyze market behavior overnight. Through its customizable options and clear visual representation, it simplifies tracking overnight price activity and identifying strategic levels for potential trade setups during the regular session.
Winning and Losing StreaksThe Pine Script indicator "Winning and Losing Streaks" tracks and visualizes the length of consecutive winning and losing streaks in a financial series, such as stock prices. Here’s a detailed description of the indicator, including the relevance of statistical analysis and streak tracking.
Indicator Description
The "Winning and Losing Streaks" indicator in Pine Script is designed to analyze and display streaks of consecutive winning and losing days in trading data. It helps traders and analysts understand the persistence of trends in price movements.
Here’s how it functions:
Streak Calculation:
Winning Streak: A series of consecutive days where the closing price is higher than the previous day's closing price.
Losing Streak: A series of consecutive days where the closing price is lower than the previous day's closing price.
Doji Candles: The indicator also considers Doji candles, where the difference between the opening and closing prices is minimal relative to the high-low range, and excludes these from being counted as winning or losing days.
Statistical Analysis:
The indicator computes the maximum and average lengths of winning and losing streaks.
It also tracks the current streak lengths and maintains arrays to store the historical streak data.
Visualization:
Histograms: Winning and losing streaks are visualized using histograms, which provide a clear graphical representation of streak lengths over time.
Relevance of Statistical Analysis and Streak Tracking
1. Statistical Significance of Streaks
Tracking winning and losing streaks has significant statistical implications for trading strategies and risk management:
Autocorrelation: Streaks in financial time series can reveal autocorrelation, where past returns influence future returns. Studies have shown that financial time series often exhibit autocorrelation, which can be used to forecast future price movements (Lo, 1991; Jegadeesh & Titman, 1993). Understanding streaks helps in identifying and leveraging these patterns.
Behavioral Finance: Streak analysis aligns with concepts from behavioral finance, such as the "hot-hand fallacy," where investors may perceive trends as more persistent than they are (Gilovich, Vallone, & Tversky, 1985). Statistical streak analysis provides a more objective view of trend persistence, helping to avoid biases.
2. Risk Management and Strategy Development
Risk Assessment: Identifying the length and frequency of losing streaks is crucial for managing risk and adjusting trading strategies. Long losing streaks can indicate potential strategy weaknesses or market regime changes, prompting a reassessment of trading rules and risk management practices (Brock, Lakonishok, & LeBaron, 1992).
Strategy Optimization: Statistical analysis of streaks can aid in optimizing trading strategies. For example, understanding the average length of winning and losing streaks can help in setting more effective stop-loss and take-profit levels, as well as in determining the optimal position sizing (Fama & French, 1993).

BTC Momentum Detector 1h# BTC Momentum Detector 1h
This indicator is designed to detect significant momentum movements in Bitcoin price on the 1-hour timeframe. It identifies candles with percentage changes within a specific range, which often precede larger price movements.
## How It Works
The indicator analyzes price movements to detect potential momentum shifts:
- Identifies candles with percentage changes between configurable thresholds (default: 1.7% - 2.8%)
- Requires neutral or inverse movement in the prior candle to avoid false signals
- Optional volume filter ensures signals are confirmed by above-average trading activity
- Tracks price continuation to calculate success rates and average returns
## Key Features
- **Signal Detection**: Green triangles below price bars indicate upward momentum signals; red triangles above price bars indicate downward momentum signals
- **Continuation Tracking**: Dashed horizontal lines show the entry price levels of active signals being tracked
- **Statistics Panel**: Displays real-time metrics including signal counts, success rates, and average returns
- **Current Status**: Shows the current price change percentage and active signals being monitored
## Parameters
- **Minimum Percentage Threshold**: Minimum price change to trigger a signal (default: 1.7%)
- **Maximum Percentage Threshold**: Maximum price change to filter out extreme moves (default: 2.8%)
- **Continuation Periods**: Number of periods to track after signal (default: 2)
- **Require Prior Neutral/Inverse**: Filters signals by requiring neutral or opposite prior movement
- **Neutral Threshold**: Defines what's considered a neutral movement (default: 0.1%)
- **Volume Filter**: Option to require above-average volume for confirmation
- **Volume Multiplier**: Volume must exceed average by this factor (default: 2x)
## Strategy Concept
The underlying strategy is based on the concept that when Bitcoin makes a controlled, significant move (not too small, not too large) after a period of neutral or opposite movement, it often continues in that direction for the next few periods. This pattern reflects the early stages of momentum development in the market.

The results are visually represented using:
- A color-coded table showing the calculated average ranges of each symbol and the current chart symbol.
- A line plot that visually tracks the volatility for each symbol on the chart, with color gradients representing the range intensity from low (red/orange) to high (blue/green).
Customizable Inputs:
- Length Inputs: Users can define the time lengths (default are 30, 60, and 90 bars) for calculating average price ranges for each symbol.
- Symbol Inputs: 10 symbols can be tracked at once, with default values set to popular crypto pairs and indices.
- Color Inputs: Users can customize the color scheme for the range values displayed in the table and chart.
Real-Time Ranking:
The indicator ranks symbols by their average price range, providing a clear view of which assets are exhibiting higher volatility at any given time.
Each symbol's range value is color-coded based on its relative volatility within the selected symbols (using a gradient from low to high range).
Data Table:
The table shows the average range values for each symbol in real-time, allowing users to compare volatility across multiple assets at a glance. The table is dynamically updated as new data comes in.
Interactive Labels:
The indicator adds labels to the chart, showing the average range for each symbol. These labels adjust in real-time as the price range values change, giving users an immediate view of volatility rankings.
How to Use:
Set Time Periods: Adjust the time periods (lengths) to match your trading strategy's timeframe and volatility preference.
Symbol Selection: Add and track the price range for your preferred symbols (cryptocurrencies, stocks, indices).
Monitor Volatility: Use the visual table and plot to identify symbols with higher or lower volatility, and adjust your trading strategy accordingly.
Interpret the Table and Chart: Ranges that are color-coded from red/orange (lower volatility) to blue/green (higher volatility) allow you to quickly gauge which symbols are most volatile.

Magic Touch Line DetectorSummary of the Magic Touch Line Detector Script:
Purpose:
The Magic Touch Line Detector script is designed to identify significant price points in the market by analyzing candlestick wicks and bodies. It plots lines based on the detected wicks, classifying them as either ascending or descending. The script tracks how frequently price touches these lines and highlights the "most touched" lines for both ascending and descending categories. This script is particularly useful for traders looking to identify key price levels and trends over time.
How It Works:
Wick and Body Detection:
The script starts by analyzing the highs and lows of candlestick wicks relative to their bodies over a user-defined lookback period. A significant wick is identified based on a specified wick-to-body ratio and a deviation threshold measured against the Average True Range (ATR).
Line Creation:
Once a significant upper or lower wick is detected, the script calculates unconventional highs and lows (i.e., points that differ from the absolute highs and lows of the lookback period). Lines are then drawn from these unconventional price points using the slope between the detected wick and the current bar, ensuring a smooth extension.
Line Refinement and Touch Tracking:
As new bars are added, the script tracks how often the price touches the previously drawn lines. The number of touches each line receives is counted and updated in real-time, and the script ensures that only the most touched line is highlighted.
Highlighting and Labeling:
For each category (ascending and descending), the most touched line is identified and given special highlighting with thicker lines and different colors. Labels are also generated to show the number of touches that the most touched line has received. Old labels are cleared to avoid clutter.
Explanation of the Settings:
Lookback Period for Highs and Lows:
This sets the number of bars the script will use to detect the highest highs and lowest lows. A larger lookback period gives the script a broader context to work with, potentially identifying more significant price points.
Minimum Wick-to-Body Ratio:
This ratio determines what qualifies as a "significant" wick. It compares the length of the wick to the body of the candle. A higher ratio means that only wicks that are much longer than the candle body will be considered significant.
Price Deviation Threshold (in ATR multiples):
This setting controls how much price deviation from the ATR is required for a wick to be deemed significant. It acts as a filter to reduce noise by ignoring smaller wicks that are within normal price movements.
Line Touch Tolerance Factor (ATR multiple):
When checking if a price touches a line, the script uses this setting to define how close the price must be to the line to count as a "touch." This tolerance is a multiplier of the ATR, allowing for some flexibility in what is considered a touch.
Price Difference Threshold:
This defines the minimum price difference required to plot a line. If the price difference between the high and low of a detected wick is too small, the script can avoid plotting a line for insignificant moves.
Slope Adjustment Multiplier:
This multiplier adjusts the slope of the lines that are drawn from detected price points. It affects the length and angle of the lines, allowing users to control how far and at what angle the lines should extend across the chart.
Customization Options:
Show Ascending/Descending Lines:
These toggles allow users to decide whether ascending (bullish) or descending (bearish) lines should be shown on the chart.
Line Color, Style, and Width (for Ascending and Descending Lines):
These settings give users control over how the lines appear visually. You can customize the color, style (solid, dashed, dotted), and width of both ascending and descending lines.
Most Touched Line Color:
Users can define a different color for the "most touched" line, which is automatically identified by the script. This setting helps highlight the line that has been interacted with the most by the price.
How to Use the Script:
Setup the Lookback Period and Deviation Filters:
Start by setting the lookback period and the filters for wick-to-body ratio and deviation threshold. These settings help control the script's sensitivity to market movements.
Refine the Tolerance and Slope:
Adjust the line touch tolerance and slope adjustment multiplier to control how closely the script tracks price touches and how the lines are extended on the chart.
Customize Visuals:
Once the lines are being drawn, customize the colors, styles, and widths to ensure the lines are easy to read on your chart. You can also decide if you want to display both ascending and descending lines or focus on just one.
By setting up the script based on these inputs and parameters, you can get a real-time view of significant price levels and how often the price interacts with them, helping you make more informed trading decisions.
Crypto McClellan Oscillator (SLN Fix)This is an adaption of the Mcclellan Oscillator for crypto. Instead of tracking the S&P500 it tracks a selection of cryptos to make sure the indicator follows this sector instead.
Full credit goes to the creator of this indicator: Fadior. It has since been fixed by SLN.
The following description explains the standard McClellan Oscillator. Full credit to Investopedia , my fav source of financial explanations.
The same principles applies to its use in the crypto sector, but please be cautious of the last point, the limitations. Since crypto is more volatile, that could amplify choppy behavior.
This is not financial advice, please be extremely cautious. This indicator is only suitable as a confirmation signal and needs support of other signals to be profitable.
This indicator usually produces the best signals on slightly above daily time frame. I personally like 2 or 3 day, but you have to find the settings suitable for your trading style.
What Is the McClellan Oscillator?
The McClellan Oscillator is a market breadth indicator that is based on the difference between the number of advancing and declining issues on a stock exchange, such as the New York Stock Exchange (NYSE) or NASDAQ.
The indicator is used to show strong shifts in sentiment in the indexes, called breadth thrusts. It also helps in analyzing the strength of an index trend via divergence or confirmation.
The McClellan Oscillator formula can be applied to any stock exchange or group of stocks.
A reading above zero helps confirm a rise in the index, while readings below zero confirm a decline in the index.
When the index is rising but the oscillator is falling, that warns that the index could start declining too. When the index is falling and the oscillator is rising, that indicates the index could start rising soon. This is called divergence.
A significant change, such as moving 100 points or more, from a negative reading to a positive reading is called a breadth thrust. It may indicate a strong reversal from downtrend to uptrend is underway on the stock exchange.
How to Calculate the McClellan Oscillator
To get the calculation started, track Advances - Declines on a stock exchange for 19 and 39 days. Calculate a simple average for these, not exponential moving average (EMA).
Use these simple values as the Prior Day EMA values in the 19- and 39-day EMA formulas.
Calculate the 19- and 39-day EMAs.
Calculate the McClellan Oscillator value.
Now that the value has been calculated, on the next calculation use this value for the Prior Day EMA. Start calculating EMAs for the formula instead of simple averages.
If using the adjusted formula, the steps are the same, except use ANA instead of using Advances - Declines.
What Does the McClellan Oscillator Tell You?
The McClellan Oscillator is an indicator based on market breadth which technical analysts can use in conjunction with other technical tools to determine the overall state of the stock market and assess the strength of its current trend.
Since the indicator is based on all the stocks in an exchange, it is compared to the price movements of indexes that reflect that exchange, or compared to major indexes such as the S&P 500.
Positive and negative values indicate whether more stocks, on average, are advancing or declining. The indicator is positive when the 19-day EMA is above the 39-day EMA, and negative when the 19-day EMA is below the 39-day EMA.
A positive and rising indicator suggests that stocks on the exchange are being accumulated. A negative and falling indicator signals that stocks are being sold. Typically such action confirms the current trend in the index.
Crossovers from positive to negative, or vice versa, may signal the trend has changed in the index or exchange being tracked. When the indicator makes a large move, typically of 100 points or more, from negative to positive territory, that is called a breadth thrust.
It means a large number of stocks moved up after a bearish move. Since the stock market tends to rise over time, this a positive signal and may indicate that a bottom in the index is in and prices are heading higher overall.
When index prices and the indicator are moving in different directions, then the current index trend may lack strength. Bullish divergence occurs when the oscillator is rising while the index is falling. This indicates the index could head higher soon since more stocks are starting to advance.
Bearish divergence is when the index is rising and the indicator is falling. This means fewer stocks are keeping the advance going and prices may start to head lower.
Limitations of Using the McClellan Oscillator
The indicator tends to produce lots of signals. Breadth thrusts, divergence, and crossovers all occur with some frequency, but not all these signals will result in the price/index moving in the expected direction.
The indicator is prone to producing false signals and therefore should be used in conjunction with price action analysis and other technical indicators.
The indicator can also be quite choppy, moving between positive and negative territory rapidly. Such action indicates a choppy market, but this isn't evident until the indicator has made this whipsaw move a few times.
Good luck and a big thanks to Fadior!
Eigenvector Centrality Drift (ECD) - Market State Network What is Eigenvector Centrality Drift (ECD)?
Eigenvector Centrality Drift (ECD) is a groundbreaking indicator that applies concepts from network science to financial markets. Instead of viewing price as a simple series, ECD models the market as a dynamic network of “micro-states”—distinct combinations of price, volatility, and volume. By tracking how the influence of these states changes over time, ECD helps you spot regime shifts and transitions in market character before they become obvious in price.
This is not another moving average or momentum oscillator. ECD is inspired by eigenvector centrality—a measure of influence in network theory—and adapts it to the world of price action, volatility, and volume. It’s about understanding which market states are “in control” and when that control is about to change.
Theoretical Foundation
Network Science: In complex systems, nodes (states) and edges (transitions) form a network. Eigenvector centrality measures how influential a node is, not just by its direct connections, but by the influence of the nodes it connects to.
Market Micro-States: Each bar is classified into a “state” based on price change, volatility, and volume. The market transitions between these states, forming a network of possible regimes.
Centrality Drift: By tracking the centrality (influence) of the current state, and how it changes (drifts) over time, ECD highlights when the market’s “center of gravity” is shifting—often a precursor to major moves or regime changes.
How ECD Works
State Classification: Each bar is assigned to one of N market micro-states, based on a weighted combination of normalized price change, volatility, and volume.
Transition Matrix: Over a rolling window, ECD tracks how often the market transitions from each state to every other state, forming a transition probability matrix.
Centrality Calculation: Using a simplified eigenvector approach, ECD calculates the “influence” score for each state, reflecting how central it is to the network of recent market behavior.
Centrality Drift: The indicator tracks the Z-score of the change in centrality for the current state. Rapid increases or decreases, or a shift in the dominant state, signal a potential regime shift.
Dominant State: ECD also highlights which state currently has the highest influence, providing insight into the prevailing market character.
Inputs:
🌐 Market State Configuration
Number of Market States (n_states, default 6): Number of distinct micro-states to track.
3–4: Simple (Up/Down/Sideways)
5–6: Balanced (recommended)
7–9: Complex, more nuanced
Price Change Weight (price_weight, default 0.4):
How much price movement defines a state. Higher = more directional.
Volatility Weight (vol_weight, default 0.3):
How much volatility defines a state. Higher = more regime focus.
Volume Weight (volume_weight, default 0.3):
How much volume defines a state. Higher = more participation focus.
🔗 Network Analysis
Transition Matrix Window (transition_window, default 50): Lookback for building the state transition matrix.
Shorter: Adapts quickly
Longer: More stable
Influence Decay Factor (influence_decay, default 0.85): How much influence propagates through the network.
Higher: Distant transitions matter more
Lower: Only immediate transitions matter
Drift Detection Sensitivity (drift_sensitivity, default 1.5): Z-score threshold for significant centrality drift.
Lower: More signals
Higher: Only major shifts

State Map Dashboard: Top-right panel shows all state centralities, highlights the current and dominant state, and visualizes influence with bars.
Information Panel: Bottom-left panel summarizes current state, centrality, dominant state, drift Z-score, and regime shift status.
How to Use ECD
Centrality Score: High = current state is highly influential; low = state is peripheral.
Drift Z-Score:
Large positive/negative = rapid change in influence, regime shift likely.
Near zero = stable network, no major shift.
Dominant State: The state with the highest centrality is “in control” of the market’s transitions.
State Map: Use to see which states are rising or falling in influence.
Tips:
Use fewer states for simple markets, more for nuanced analysis.
Watch for drift Z-score crossing the threshold—these are your regime shift signals.
Combine with your own system for confirmation.
Alerts:
ECD Regime Shift: Significant centrality drift detected—potential regime change.
ECD State Change: Market state transition occurred.
ECD Dominance Shift: Dominant market state has changed.
Originality & Usefulness
ECD is not a mashup or rehash of standard indicators. It is a novel application of network science and eigenvector centrality to market microstructure, providing a new lens for understanding regime shifts and market transitions. The state network, centrality drift, and dashboard are unique to this script. ECD is designed for anticipation, not confirmation—helping you see the market’s “center of gravity” shift before price action makes it obvious.

FS Scorpion TailKey Features & Components:
1. Custom Date & Chart-Based Controls
The software allows users to define whether they want signals to start on a specific date (useSpecificDate) or base calculations on the visible chart’s range (useRelativeScreenSumLeft and useRelativeScreenSumRight).
Users can input the number of stocks to buy/sell per signal and decide whether to sell only for profit.
2. Technical Indicators Used
EMA (Exponential Moving Average): Users can define the length of the EMA and specify if buy/sell signals should occur when the EMA is rising or falling.
MACD (Moving Average Convergence Divergence): MACD crossovers, slopes of the MACD line, signal line, and histogram are used for generating buy/sell signals.
ATR (Average True Range): Signals are generated based on rising or falling ATR.
Aroon Indicator: Buy and sell signals are based on the behavior of the Aroon upper and lower lines.
RSI (Relative Strength Index): Tracks whether the RSI and its moving average are rising or falling to generate signals.
Bollinger Bands: Buy/sell signals depend on the basis, upper, and lower band behavior (rising or falling).
3. Signal Detection
The software creates arrays for each indicator to store conditions for buy/sell signals.
The allTrue() function checks whether all conditions for buy/sell signals are true, ensuring that only valid signals are plotted.
Signals are differentiated between buy-only, sell-only, and both buy and sell (dual signal).
4. Visual Indicators
Vertical Lines: When buy, sell, or dual signals are detected, vertical lines are drawn at the corresponding bar with configurable colors (green for buy, red for sell, silver for dual).
Buy/Sell Labels: Visual labels are plotted directly on the chart to denote buy or sell signals, allowing for clear interpretation of the strategy.
5. Cash Flow & Metrics Display
The software maintains an internal ledger of how many stocks are bought/sold, their prices, and whether a profit is being made.
A table is displayed at the bottom right of the chart, showing:
Initial investment
Current stocks owned
Last buy price
Market stake
Net profit
The table background turns green for profit and red for loss.
6. Dynamic Decision Making
Buy Condition: If a valid buy signal is generated, the software decrements the cash balance and adds stocks to the inventory.
Sell Condition: If the sell signal is valid (and meets the profit requirement), stocks are sold, and cash is incremented.
A fallback check ensures the sell logic prevents selling more stocks than are available and adjusts stock holding appropriately (e.g., sell half).
Customization and Usage
Indicator Adjustments: The user can choose which indicators to activate (e.g., EMA, MACD, RSI) via input controls. Each indicator has specific customizable parameters such as lengths, slopes, and conditions.
Signal Flexibility: The user can adjust conditions for buying and selling based on various technical indicators, which adds flexibility in implementing trading strategies. For example, users may require the RSI to be higher than its moving average or trigger sales only when MACD crosses under the signal line.
Profit Sensitivity: The software allows the option to sell only when a profit is assured by checking if the current price is higher than the last buy price.
Summary of Usage:
Indicator Selection: Enable or disable technical indicators like EMA, MACD, RSI, Aroon, ATR, and Bollinger Bands to fit your trading strategy.
Custom Date/Chart Settings: Choose whether to calculate based on specific time ranges or visible portions of the chart.
Dynamic Signal Plotting: Once buy or sell conditions are met, the software will visually plot signals on your chart, giving clear entry and exit points.
Investment Tracking: Real-time tracking of stock quantities, investments, and profit ensures a clear view of your trading performance.
Backtesting: Use this software for backtesting your strategy by analyzing how buy and sell signals would have performed historically based on the chosen indicators.
