B-Xtrender By Neal inspired from @PuppytherapyThanks to @puppytherapy for creating the original B-Xtrender indicator, available at this link: B-Xtrender by @QuantTherapy
I played around the code to have entry and exit condition. The B-Xtrender @QuantTherapy
indicator is a momentum-based tool designed to help traders identify potential trade opportunities by tracking shifts in market momentum. Using a smoothed momentum oscillator, it detects changes in trend direction and provides clear signals for entry and exit points.
Features
Momentum Detection:
Tracks market momentum using the BX-Trender Oscillator.
Green bars indicate bullish momentum, while red bars indicate bearish momentum.
Lighter shades of green/red reflect weakening momentum.
Entry and Exit Signals:
Entry Condition: A long trade is triggered when the oscillator changes from red to green .
Exit Condition: A long trade exit is triggered when the oscillator changes from green to red .
Dynamic PnL Calculation:
Automatically calculates profit or loss in percentage (%) when a trade is exited.
Positive PnL values are prefixed with `+`, and negative values are shown as `-`.
Clear Visualization:
Bar chart-style oscillator in a separate pane for better trend visualization.
Trade labels on the main price chart for clear entry and exit points.
Inputs
Short-Term Momentum Parameters:
Short - L1: Length of the first EMA for short-term momentum calculations.

TradingIQ - Reversal IQIntroducing "Reversal IQ" by TradingIQ
Reversal IQ is an exclusive trading algorithm developed by TradingIQ, designed to trade trend reversals in the market. By integrating artificial intelligence and IQ Technology, Reversal IQ analyzes historical and real-time price data to construct a dynamic trading system adaptable to various asset and timeframe combinations.
Philosophy of Reversal IQ
Reversal IQ integrates IQ Technology (AI) with the timeless concept of reversal trading. Markets follow trends that inevitably reverse at some point. Rather than relying on rigid settings or manual judgment to capture these reversals, Reversal IQ dynamically designs, creates, and executes reversal-based trading strategies.
Reversal IQ is designed to work straight out of the box. In fact, its simplicity requires just one user setting, making it incredibly straightforward to manage.
AI Aggressiveness is the only setting that controls how Reversal IQ works.
Traders don’t have to spend hours adjusting settings and trying to find what works best - Reversal IQ handles this on its own.
Key Features of Reversal IQ

IQ Channel
The IQ Channel represents what Reversal IQ considers a tradable long opportunity or a tradable short opportunity. The channel is dynamic and adjusts from chart to chart.
IQMA – Proprietary Moving Average
Introduces the IQ Moving Average (IQMA), designed to classify overarching market trends.
IQCandles – Trend Classification Tool
Complements IQMA with candlestick colors designed for trend identification and analysis.
How It Works
Reversal IQ operates on a straightforward heuristic: go long during an extended downside move and go short during an extended upside move.
What defines an "extended move" is determined by IQ Technology, TradingIQ's exclusive AI algorithm. For Reversal IQ, the algorithm assesses the extent to which historical high and low prices are breached. By learning from these price level violations, Reversal IQ adapts to trade future, similar violations in a recurring manner. It calculates a price area, distant from the current price, where a reversal is anticipated.
In simple terms, price peaks (tops) and troughs (bottoms) are stored for Reversal IQ to learn from. The degree to which these levels are violated by subsequent price movements is also recorded. Reversal IQ continuously evaluates this stored data, adapting to market volatility and raw price fluctuations to better capture price reversals.
What classifies as a price top or price bottom?
For Reversal IQ, price tops are considered the highest price attained before a significant downside reversal. Price bottoms are considered the lowest price attained before a significant upside reversal. The highest price achieved is continuously calculated before a significant counter trend price move renders the high price as a swing high. The lowest price achieved is continuously calculated before a significant counter trend price move renders the low price as a swing low.
The image above illustrates the IQ channel and explains the corresponding prices and levels
The blue lower line represents the Long Reversal Level, with the price highlighted in blue showing the Long Reversal Price.
The red upper line represents the Short Reversal Level, with the price highlighted in red showing the Short Reversal Price.
Limit orders are placed at both of these levels. As soon as either level is touched, a trade is immediately executed.
The image above shows a long position being entered after the Long Reversal Level was reached. The profit target and stop loss are calculated by Reversal IQ
The blue line indicates where the profit target is placed (acting as a limit order).
The red line shows where the stop loss is placed (acting as a stop loss order).
Green arrows indicate that the strategy entered a long position at the highlighted price level.
You can also hover over the trade labels to get more information about the trade—such as the entry price, profit target, and stop loss.
The image above demonstrates the profit target being hit for the trade. All profitable trades are marked by a blue arrow and blue line. Hover over the blue arrow to obtain more details about the trade exit.
The image above depicts a short position being entered after the Short Reversal Level was touched. The profit target and stop loss are calculated by the AI
The blue line indicates where the profit target is placed (acting as a limit order).
The red line shows where the stop loss is placed (acting as a stop loss order).
The image above shows the profit target being hit for the short trade. Profitable trades are indicated by a blue arrow and blue line. Hover over the blue arrow to access more information about the trade exit.
Long Entry: Green Arrow
Short Entry: Red Arrow
Profitable Trades: Blue Arrow
Losing Trades: Red Arrow
IQMA
The IQMA implements a dynamic moving average that adapts to market conditions by adjusting its smoothing factor based on its own slope. This makes it more responsive in volatile conditions (steeper slopes) and smoother in less volatile conditions.
The IQMA is not used by Reversal IQ as a trade condition; however, the IQMA can be used by traders to characterize the overarching trend and elect to trade only long positions during bullish conditions and only short positions during bearish conditions.
The IQMA is an adaptive smoothing function that applies a combination of multiple moving averages to reduce lag and noise in the data. The adaptiveness is achieved by dynamically adjusting the Volatility Factor (VF) based on the slope (derivative) of the price trend, making it more responsive to strong trends and smoother in consolidating markets.
This process effectively makes the moving average a self-adjusting filter, the IQMA attempts to track both trending and ranging market conditions by dynamically changing its sensitivity in response to price movements.
When IQMA is blue, an overarching uptrend is in place. When IQMA is red, an overarching downtrend is in place.
IQ Candles
IQ Candles are price candles color-coordinated with IQMA. IQ Candles help visualize the overarching trend and are not used by Reversal IQ to determine trade entries and trade exits.
AI Aggressiveness
Reversal IQ has only one setting that controls its functionality.
AI Aggressiveness controls the aggressiveness of the AI. This setting has three options: Sniper, Aggressive, and Very Aggressive.
Sniper Mode
In Sniper Mode, Reversal IQ will prioritize trading large deviations from established reversal levels and extracting the largest countertrend move possible from them.
Aggressive Mode
In Aggressive Mode, Reversal IQ still prioritizes quality but allows for strong, quantity-based signals. More trades will be executed in this mode with tighter stops and profit targets. Aggressive mode forces Reversal IQ to learn from narrower raw-dollar violations of historical levels.
Very Aggressive Mode
In Very Aggressive Mode, Reversal IQ still prioritizes the strongest quantity-based signals. Stop and target distances aren't inherently affected, but entries will be aggressive while prioritizing performance. Very Aggressive mode forces Reversal IQ to learn from narrower raw-dollar violations of historical levels and also forces it to embrace volatility more aggressively.
AI Direction
The AI Direction setting controls the trade direction Reversal IQ is allowed to take.
“Both” allows for both long and short trades.
“Long” allows for only long trades.
“Short” allows for only short trades.
Verifying Reversal IQ’s Effectiveness
Reversal IQ automatically tracks its performance and displays the profit factor for the long strategy and the short strategy it uses. This information can be found in a table located in the top-right corner of your chart.
The image above shows the long strategy profit factor and the short strategy profit factor for Reversal IQ.
A profit factor greater than 1 indicates a strategy profitably traded historical price data.
A profit factor less than 1 indicates a strategy unprofitably traded historical price data.
A profit factor equal to 1 indicates a strategy did not lose or gain money when trading historical price data.
Using Reversal IQ
While Reversal IQ is a full-fledged trading system with entries and exits, it was designed for the manual trader to take its trading signals and analysis indications to greater heights - offering numerous applications beyond its built-in trading system.
The hallmark feature of Reversal IQ is its sniper-like reversal signals. While exits are dynamically calculated as well, Reversal IQ simply has a knack for "sniping" price reversals.
When performing live analysis, you can use the IQ Channel to evaluate price reversal areas, whether price has extended too far in one direction, and whether price is likely to reverse soon.
Of course, in times of exuberance or panic, price may push through the reversal levels. While infrequent, it can happen to any indicator.
The deeper price moves into the bullish reversal area (blue) the better chance that price has extended too far and will reverse to the upside soon. The deeper price moves into the bearish reversal area (red) the better chance that price has extended too far and will reverse to the downside soon.
Of course, you can set alerts for all Reversal IQ entry and exit signals, effectively following along its systematic conquest of price movement.
Hull MA with Alerts and LabelsThis script is designed to help traders visually track market trends using various types of moving averages (MAs) and to receive alerts when certain conditions are met. Here’s a detailed breakdown of how the script works:
1. User Inputs and Customization:
MA Length: Traders can define the length of the moving average (default is 100).
Confirmation Candles: The trader can specify how many candles must confirm a trend before the script triggers a signal (default is 1).
MA Variation: The trader can choose between different moving average types: Simple Moving Average (SMA), Exponential Moving Average (EMA), Weighted Moving Average (WMA), or Hull Moving Average (HMA).
Source: Traders select the price source for the moving average calculation (e.g., close price).
Ribbon Transparency: Allows control over the transparency level of the ribbon plotted between the moving averages.
Bullish/Bearish Ribbon Colors: The user can choose the colors for bullish and bearish trends.
2. Moving Average Calculations:
The script provides multiple options for calculating moving averages:
SMA (Simple Moving Average)
EMA (Exponential Moving Average)
WMA (Weighted Moving Average)
HMA (Hull Moving Average)
For the Hull Moving Average (HMA), it uses a specific formula that smoothens the movement and reduces lag, which is helpful for more reactive trend detection.
3. Plotting Moving Averages and Trend Ribbon:
The script calculates two key moving averages:
MHULL: The main moving average, selected based on the user’s chosen MA variation and source.
SHULL: A shifted version of the MHULL to help compare trends (shifted by 2 bars).
These two moving averages are plotted on the chart for visualization. MHULL is plotted in green (or another color if changed), while SHULL is plotted in red. A ribbon is drawn between MHULL and SHULL to indicate trends visually. The ribbon changes color depending on whether the trend is bullish (MHULL > SHULL) or bearish (MHULL < SHULL). The ribbon’s transparency can be adjusted for visual clarity.
4. Trend Detection:
Bullish Trend: The script checks if the price has closed above MHULL for the defined number of confirmation candles. If confirmed, a bullish trend is detected.
Bearish Trend: Similarly, the script checks if the price has closed below SHULL for the confirmation period, indicating a bearish trend.
The script tracks whether the market is in a bullish or bearish trend and prevents repeated signals by remembering the current trend state.
5. Alerts and Labels:
Bullish Alerts and Labels: When a confirmed bullish trend is detected (i.e., price closes above MHULL for the entire confirmation period and MHULL > SHULL), the script triggers an alert notifying the trader of the bullish condition. A "BULLISH" label is placed on the chart near the low of the candle where the trend was confirmed.
Bearish Alerts and Labels: If a confirmed bearish trend is detected (i.e., price closes below SHULL for the confirmation period and MHULL < SHULL), the script triggers an alert for the bearish condition. A "BEARISH" label is placed on the chart near the high of the candle where the trend was confirmed.
These alerts and labels help traders act quickly on trend changes and align their trading strategy with market conditions.
6. Practical Use for Traders:
For traders, this script offers:
Customizability : It allows traders to define the length and type of moving averages, choose price sources, and control how signals are confirmed.
Visual Trend Representation : The plotted MA lines and colored ribbons help traders easily see market direction.
Early Warnings : With alerts and labels, the script gives traders early signals when trends are shifting, allowing them to adjust positions accordingly.
Trend Confirmation : The script waits for a user-defined number of confirmation candles before signaling a new trend, reducing false signals.
Overall, the script helps traders automate their strategy by tracking moving averages and alerting them when key trend conditions are met.

ICT Sessions and Kill Zones
What They Are:
ICT Sessions: These are specific times during the trading day when market activity is expected to be higher, such as the London Open, New York Open, and the Asian session.
Kill Zones: These are specific time windows within these sessions where the probability of significant price movements is higher. For example, the New York AM Kill Zone is typically from 8:30 AM to 11:00 AM EST.
How to Use Them:
Identify the Session: Determine which trading session you are in (London, New York, or Asian).
Focus on Kill Zones: Within that session, focus on the kill zones for potential trade setups. For instance, during the New York session, look for setups between 8:30 AM and 11:00 AM EST.
Silver Bullets
What They Are:
Silver Bullets: These are specific, high-probability trade setups that occur within the kill zones. They are designed to be "one shot, one kill" trades, meaning they aim for precise and effective entries and exits.
How to Use Them:
Time-Based Setup: Look for these setups within the designated kill zones. For example, between 10:00 AM and 11:00 AM for the New York AM session .
Chart Analysis: Start with higher time frames like the 15-minute chart and then refine down to 5-minute and 1-minute charts to identify imbalances or specific patterns .
Macros
What They Are:
Macros: These are broader market conditions and trends that influence your trading decisions. They include understanding the overall market direction, seasonal tendencies, and the Commitment of Traders (COT) reports.
How to Use Them:
Understand Market Conditions: Be aware of the macroeconomic factors and market conditions that could affect price movements.
Seasonal Tendencies: Know the seasonal patterns that might influence the market direction.
COT Reports: Use the Commitment of Traders reports to understand the positioning of large traders and commercial hedgers .
Putting It All Together

Sharpe and Sortino Ratios█ OVERVIEW
This indicator calculates the Sharpe and Sortino ratios using a chart symbol's periodic price returns, offering insights into the symbol's risk-adjusted performance. It features the option to calculate these ratios by comparing the periodic returns to a fixed annual rate of return or the returns from another selected symbol's context.
█ CONCEPTS
Returns, risk, and volatility
The return on an investment is the relative gain or loss over a period, often expressed as a percentage. Investment returns can originate from several sources, including capital gains, dividends, and interest income. Many investors seek the highest returns possible in the quest for profit. However, prudent investing and trading entails evaluating such returns against the associated risks (i.e., the uncertainty of returns and the potential for financial losses) for a clearer perspective on overall performance and sustainability.
The profitability of an investment typically comes at the cost of enduring market swings, noise, and general uncertainty. To navigate these turbulent waters, investors and portfolio managers often utilize volatility , a measure of the statistical dispersion of historical returns, as a foundational element in their risk assessments because it provides a tangible way to gauge the uncertainty in returns. High volatility suggests increased uncertainty and, consequently, higher risk, whereas low volatility suggests more stable returns with minimal fluctuations, implying lower risk. These concepts are integral components in several risk-adjusted performance metrics, including the Sharpe and Sortino ratios calculated by this indicator.
Risk-free rate
The risk-free rate represents the rate of return on a hypothetical investment carrying no risk of financial loss. This theoretical rate provides a benchmark for comparing the returns on a risky investment and evaluating whether its excess returns justify the risks. If an investment's returns are at or below the theoretical risk-free rate or the risk premium is below a desired amount, it may suggest that the returns do not compensate for the extra risk, which might be a call to reassess the investment.
Since the risk-free rate is a theoretical concept, investors often utilize proxies for the rate in practice, such as Treasury bills and other government bonds. Conventionally, analysts consider such instruments "risk-free" for a domestic holder, as they are a form of government obligation with a low perceived likelihood of default.
The average yield on short-term Treasury bills, influenced by economic conditions, monetary policies, and inflation expectations, has historically hovered around 2-3% over the long term. This range also aligns with central banks' inflation targets. As such, one may interpret a value within this range as a minimum proxy for the risk-free rate, as it may correspond to the minimum rate required to maintain purchasing power over time. This indicator uses a default value of 2% as the risk-free rate in its Sharpe and Sortino ratio calculations. Users can adjust this value from the "Risk-free rate of return" input in the "Settings/Inputs" tab.
Sharpe and Sortino ratios
The Sharpe and Sortino ratios are two of the most widely used metrics that offer insight into an investment's risk-adjusted performance . They provide a standardized framework to compare the effectiveness of investments relative to their perceived risks. These metrics can help investors determine whether the returns justify the risks taken to achieve them, promoting more informed investment decisions.
Both metrics measure risk-adjusted performance similarly. However, they have some differences in their formulas and their interpretation:
1. Sharpe ratio
The Sharpe ratio , developed by Nobel laureate William F. Sharpe, measures the performance of an investment compared to a theoretically risk-free asset, adjusted for the investment risk. The ratio uses the following formula:
Sharpe Ratio = (𝑅𝑎 − 𝑅𝑓) / 𝜎𝑎
Where:
• 𝑅𝑎 = Average return of the investment
• 𝑅𝑓 = Theoretical risk-free rate of return
• 𝜎𝑎 = Standard deviation of the investment's returns (volatility)
A higher Sharpe ratio indicates a more favorable risk-adjusted return, as it signifies that the investment produced higher excess returns per unit of increase in total perceived risk.
2. Sortino ratio
The Sortino ratio is a modified form of the Sharpe ratio that only considers downside volatility , i.e., the volatility of returns below the theoretical risk-free benchmark. Although it shares close similarities with the Sharpe ratio, it can produce very different values, especially when the returns do not have a symmetrical distribution, since it does not penalize upside and downside volatility equally. The ratio uses the following formula:
Sortino Ratio = (𝑅𝑎 − 𝑅𝑓) / 𝜎𝑑
Where:
• 𝑅𝑎 = Average return of the investment
• 𝑅𝑓 = Theoretical risk-free rate of return
• 𝜎𝑑 = Downside deviation (standard deviation of negative excess returns, or downside volatility)
The Sortino ratio offers an alternative perspective on an investment's return-generating efficiency since it does not consider upside volatility in its calculation. A higher Sortino ratio signifies that the investment produced higher excess returns per unit of increase in perceived downside risk.
The risk-free rate (𝑅𝑓) in the numerator of both ratio formulas acts as a baseline for comparing an investment's performance to a theoretical risk-free alternative. By subtracting the risk-free rate from the expected return (𝑅𝑎−𝑅𝑓), the numerator essentially represents the risk premium of the investment.
Comparison with another symbol
In addition to the conventional Sharpe and Sortino ratios, which compare an instrument's returns to a risk-free rate, this indicator can also compare returns to a user-specified benchmark symbol , allowing the calculation of Information ratios .
An Information ratio is a generalized form of the Sharpe ratio that compares an investment's returns to a risky benchmark , such as SPY, rather than a risk-free rate. It measures the investment's active return (the difference between its returns and the benchmark returns) relative to its tracking error (i.e., the volatility of the active return) using the following formula:
𝐼𝑅 = (𝑅𝑝 − 𝑅𝑏) / 𝑇𝐸
Where:
• 𝑅𝑝 = Average return on the portfolio or investment
• 𝑅𝑏 = Average return from the benchmark instrument
• 𝑇𝐸 = Tracking error (volatility of 𝑅𝑝 − 𝑅𝑏)
Comparing returns to a benchmark instrument rather than a theoretical risk-free rate offers unique insights into risk-adjusted performance. Higher Information ratios signify that the investment produced higher active returns per unit of increase in risk relative to the benchmark. Conventional choices for non-risk-free benchmarks include major composite indices like the S&P 500 and DJIA, as the resulting ratios can provide insight into the effectiveness of an investment relative to the broader market.
Users can enable this generalized calculation for both the Sharpe and Sortino ratios by selecting the "Benchmark symbol returns" option from the "Benchmark type" dropdown in the "Settings/Inputs" tab.
It's crucial to note that this indicator compares the charts symbol's rate of change (return) to the rate of change in the benchmark symbol. Consequently, not all symbols available on TradingView are suitable for use with these ratios due to the nature of what their values represent. For instance, using a bond as a benchmark will produce distorted results since each bar's values represent yields rather than prices, meaning it compares the rate of change in the yield. To maintain consistency and relevance in the calculated ratios, ensure the values from the compared symbols strictly represent price information.
█ FEATURES
This indicator provides traders with two widely used metrics for assessing risk-adjusted performance, generalized to allow users to compare the chart symbol's price returns to a fixed risk-free rate or the returns from another risky symbol. Below are the key features of this indicator:
Timeframe selection
The "Returns timeframe" input determines the timeframe of the calculated price returns. Users can select any value greater than or equal to the chart's timeframe. The default timeframe is "1M".
Periodic returns tracking
This indicator compounds and collects requested price returns from the selected timeframe over monthly or daily periods, similar to how the Broker Emulator works when calculating strategy performance metrics on trade data. It employs the following logic:
• Track returns over monthly periods if the chart's data spans at least two months.
• Track returns over daily periods if the chart's data spans at least two days but not two months.
• Do not track or collect returns if the data spans less than two days, as the amount of data is insufficient for meaningful ratio calculations.
The indicator uses the returns collected from up to a specified number of periods to calculate the Sharpe and Sortino ratios, depending on the available historical data. It also uses these periodic returns to calculate the average returns it displays in the Data Window.
Users can control the maximum number of periods the indicator analyzes with the "Max no. of periods used" input in the "Settings/Inputs" tab. The default value is 60 periods.
Benchmark specification
The "Benchmark return type" input specifies the benchmark type the indicator compares to the chart symbol's returns in the ratio calculations. It features the following two options:
• "Risk-free rate of return (%)": Compares the price returns to a user-specified annual rate of return representing a theoretical risk-free rate (e.g., 2%).
• "Benchmark symbol return": Compares the price returns to a selected benchmark symbol (e.g., "AMEX:SPY) to calculate Information ratios.
When comparing a chart symbol's returns to a specified benchmark symbol, this indicator aligns the times of data points from the benchmark with the times of data points from the chart's symbol to facilitate a fair comparison between symbols with different active sessions.
Visualization and display
• The indicator displays the periodic returns requested from the specified "Returns timeframe" in a separate pane. The plot includes dynamic colors to signify positive and negative returns.
• When the "Returns timeframe" value represents a higher timeframe, the indicator displays background highlights on the main chart pane to signify when a new value is available and whether the return is positive or negative.
• When the specified benchmark return type is a benchmark symbol, the indicator displays the requested symbol's returns in the separate pane as a gray line for visual comparison.
• Within the separate pane, the indicator displays a single-cell table that shows the base period it uses for periodic returns, the number of periods it uses in the calculation, the timeframe of the requested data, and the calculated Sharpe and Sortino ratios.
• The Data Window displays the chart symbol and benchmark returns, their periodic averages, and the Sharpe and Sortino ratios.
█ FOR Pine Script™ CODERS
• This script utilizes the functions from our RiskMetrics library to determine the size of the periods, calculate and collect periodic returns, and compute the Sharpe and Sortino ratios.
• The `getAlignedPrices()` function in this script requests price data for the chart's symbol and a benchmark symbol with consistent time alignment by utilizing spread symbols , which helps facilitate a fair comparison between different symbol types. Retrieving prices from spreads avoids potential information loss and data misalignment that can otherwise occur when using separate requests from each symbol's context when those symbols have different sessions or data times.
• For consistency, the `getAlignedPrices()` function includes extended hours and dividend adjustment modifiers in its data requests. Additionally, it includes other settings inherited from the chart's context, such as "settlement-as-close" preferences for fair comparison between futures instruments.
• This script uses the `changePercent()` function from our ta library to calculate the percentage changes of the requested data.
• The newly released `force_overlay` parameter in display-related functions allows indicators to display visuals on the main chart and a separate pane simultaneously. We use the parameter in this script's bgcolor() call to display background highlights on the main chart.

Luxmi AI Directional Option Buying (Long Only)Introduction:
"Option premium charts typically exhibit a predisposition towards bearish sentiment in higher timeframes"
In the dynamic world of options trading, navigating through the complexities of market trends and price movements is essential for making informed decisions. Among the arsenal of tools available to traders, option premium charts stand out as a pivotal source of insight, particularly in higher timeframes. However, their inherent bearish inclination in such timeframes necessitates a keen eye for identifying bullish pullbacks, especially in lower timeframes, to optimize buying strategies effectively.
Understanding the interplay between different data points becomes paramount in this endeavor. Traders embark on a journey of analysis, delving into metrics such as Implementation Shortfall, the performance of underlying index constituents, and bullish trends observed in lower timeframes like the 1-minute and 3-minute charts. These data points serve as guiding beacons, illuminating potential opportunities amidst the market's ever-shifting landscape.
Using this indicator, we will dissect the significance of option premium charts and their nuanced portrayal of market sentiment. Furthermore, we will unveil the art of discerning bullish pullbacks in lower timeframes, leveraging a multifaceted approach that amalgamates quantitative analysis with qualitative insights. Through this holistic perspective, traders can refine their decision-making processes, striving towards efficiency and efficacy in their options trading endeavors.
Major Features:
Implementation Shortfall (IS) Candles:
Working Principle:
TWAP (Time-Weighted Average Price) and EMA (Exponential Moving Average) are both commonly used in calculating Implementation Shortfall, a metric that measures the difference between the actual execution price of a trade and the benchmark price.
TWAP calculates the average price of a security over a specified time period, giving equal weight to each interval. On the other hand, EMA places more weight on recent prices, making it more responsive to current market conditions.
To calculate Implementation Shortfall using TWAP, the difference between the average execution price and the benchmark price is determined over the trading period. Similarly, with EMA, the difference is calculated using the exponential moving average price instead of a simple average.
By employing TWAP and EMA, traders can gauge the effectiveness of their trading strategies and identify areas for improvement in executing trades relative to a benchmark.
Benefits of using Implementation Shortfall:
By visualizing the implementation shortfall and its comparison with the EMA on the chart, traders can quickly assess whether current trading activity is deviating from recent trends.
Green bars suggest potential buying opportunities or bullish sentiment, while red bars suggest potential selling opportunities or bearish sentiment.
Traders can use this visualization to make more informed decisions about their trading strategies, such as adjusting position sizes, entering or exiting trades, or managing risk based on the observed deviations from the moving average.
How to use this feature:
This feature calculates Implementation Shortfall (IS) and visually represents it by coloring the candles in either bullish (green) or bearish (red) hues. This color-coding system provides traders with a quick and intuitive way to assess market sentiment and potential entry points. Specifically, a long entry is signaled when both the candle color and the trend cloud color align as green, indicating a bullish market outlook. This integrated approach enables traders to make informed decisions, leveraging IS insights alongside visual cues for more effective trading strategies.
Micro Trend Candles:
Working Principle:
This feature begins by initializing variables to determine trend channel width and track price movements. Average True Range (ATR) is then calculated to measure market volatility, influencing the channel's size. Highs and lows are identified within a specified range, and trends are assessed based on price breaches, with potential changes signaled accordingly. The price channel is continually updated to adapt to market shifts, and arrows are placed to indicate potential entry points. Colors are assigned to represent bullish and bearish trends, dynamically adjusting based on current market conditions. Finally, candles on the chart are colored to visually depict the identified micro trend, offering traders an intuitive way to interpret market sentiment and potential entry opportunities.
Benefits of using Micro Trend Candles:
Traders can use these identified micro trends to spot potential short-term trading opportunities. For example:
Trend Following: Traders may decide to enter trades aligned with the prevailing micro trend. If the candles are consistently colored in a certain direction, traders may consider entering positions in that direction.
Reversals: Conversely, if the script signals a potential reversal by changing the candle colors, traders may anticipate trend reversals and adjust their trading strategies accordingly. For instance, they might close existing positions or enter new positions in anticipation of a trend reversal.
It's important to note that these micro trends are short-term in nature and may not always align with broader market trends. Therefore, traders utilizing this script should consider their trading timeframes and adjust their strategies accordingly.
How to use this feature:
This feature assigns colors to candles to represent bullish and bearish trends, with adjustments made based on current market conditions. Green candles accompanied by a green trend cloud signal a potential long entry, while red candles suggest caution, indicating a bearish trend. This visual representation allows traders to interpret market sentiment intuitively, identifying optimal entry points and exercising caution during potential downtrends.
Scalping Candles (Inspired by Elliott Wave):
Working Principle:
This feature draws inspiration from the Elliot Wave method, utilizing technical analysis techniques to discern potential market trends and sentiment shifts. It begins by calculating the variance between two Exponential Moving Averages (EMAs) of closing prices, mimicking Elliot Wave's focus on wave and trend analysis. The shorter-term EMA captures immediate price momentum, while the longer-term EMA reflects broader market trends. A smoother Exponential Moving Average (EMA) line, derived from the difference between these EMAs, aids in identifying short-term trend shifts or momentum reversals.
Benefits of using Scalping Candles Inspired by Elliott Wave:
The Elliott Wave principle is a form of technical analysis that attempts to predict future price movements by identifying patterns in market charts. It suggests that markets move in repetitive waves or cycles, and traders can potentially profit by recognizing these patterns.
While this script does not explicitly analyze Elliot Wave patterns, it is inspired by the principle's emphasis on trend analysis and market sentiment. By calculating and visualizing the difference between EMAs and assigning colors to candles based on this analysis, the script aims to provide traders with insights into potential market sentiment shifts, which can align with the broader philosophy of Elliott Wave analysis.
How to use this feature:
Candlestick colors are assigned based on the relationship between the EMA line and the variance. When the variance is below or equal to the EMA line, candles are colored red, suggesting a bearish sentiment. Conversely, when the variance is above the EMA line, candles are tinted green, indicating a bullish outlook. Though not explicitly analyzing Elliot Wave patterns, the script aligns with its principles of trend analysis and market sentiment interpretation. By offering visual cues on sentiment shifts, it provides traders with insights into potential trading opportunities, echoing Elliot Wave's emphasis on pattern recognition and trend analysis.
Volume Candles:
Working Principle:
This feature introduces a custom volume calculation method tailored for bullish and bearish bars, enabling a granular analysis of volume dynamics specific to different price movements. By summing volumes over specified periods for bullish and bearish bars, traders gain insights into the intensity of buying and selling pressures during these periods, facilitating a deeper understanding of market sentiment. Subsequently, the script computes the net volume, revealing the overall balance between buying and selling pressures. Positive net volume signifies prevailing bullish sentiment, while negative net volume indicates bearish sentiment.
Benefits of Using Volume candles:
Enhanced Volume Analysis: Traders gain a deeper understanding of volume dynamics specific to bullish and bearish price movements, allowing them to assess the intensity of buying and selling pressures with greater precision.
Insight into Market Sentiment: By computing net volume and analyzing its relationship with the Exponential Moving Average (EMA), traders obtain valuable insights into prevailing market sentiment. This helps in identifying potential shifts in sentiment and anticipating market movements.
Visual Representation of Sentiment: The color-coded candle bodies based on volume dynamics provide traders with a visual representation of market sentiment. This intuitive visualization helps in quickly interpreting sentiment shifts and making timely trading decisions.
How to use this feature:
This visual representation allows traders to quickly interpret market sentiment based on volume dynamics. Green candles indicate potential bullish sentiment, while red candles suggest bearish sentiment. The color-coded candle bodies help traders identify shifts in market sentiment and make informed trading decisions.
Smart Sentimeter Candles:
Working Principle:
The "Smart Sentimeter Candles" feature is a tool designed for market sentiment analysis using technical indicators. It begins by defining stock symbols from various sectors, allowing traders to select specific indices for sentiment analysis. The script then calculates the difference between two Exponential Moving Averages (EMAs) of the High-Low midpoint, capturing short-term momentum changes in the market. It computes the difference between current and previous values to capture momentum shifts over time.
Additionally, it calculates the Exponential Moving Average (EMA) of this difference to provide a smoothed representation of the prevailing trend in market momentum. Another EMA of this difference is calculated to offer an alternative perspective on longer-term momentum trends. Bar colors are determined based on the difference between current and previous values, with bullish and bearish sentiment represented by custom colors. Finally, sentiment candles are visualized on the chart, providing traders with a clear representation of market sentiment changes.
Benefits of Using Sentimeter Candles:
By analyzing index constituents, traders gain insights into the individual stocks that collectively influence the index's performance. This understanding is crucial for trading options as it helps traders tailor their strategies to specific sectors or stocks within the index.
Sector-Specific Analysis: Traders can focus on specific sectors by selecting relevant indices for sentiment analysis.
Momentum Identification: The script identifies short-term momentum changes in the market, aiding traders in spotting potential trend reversals or continuations.
Clear Visualization: Sentiment candles visually represent market sentiment changes, making it easier for traders to interpret and act upon sentiment trends.
How to use this feature:
Select Indices: Toggle the inputs to choose which indices (e.g., NIFTY, BANKNIFTY, FINNIFTY) to analyze.
Interpret Sentiment Candles: Monitor the color of sentiment candles on the chart. Green candles indicate bullish sentiment, while red candles suggest bearish sentiment.
Observe Momentum Changes: Pay attention to momentum changes identified by the difference between EMAs and their respective EMAs. Increasing bullish momentum may present buying opportunities, while increasing bearish momentum could signal potential sell-offs.
Trend Cloud:
Working Principle:
The script utilizes the Relative Strength Index (RSI) to assess market momentum, identifying bullish and bearish phases based on RSI readings. It calculates two boolean variables, bullmove and bearmove, which signal shifts in momentum direction by considering changes in the Exponential Moving Average (EMA) of the closing price. When RSI indicates bullish momentum and the closing price's EMA exhibits positive changes, bullmove is triggered, signifying the start of a bullish phase. Conversely, when RSI suggests bearish momentum and the closing price's EMA shows negative changes, bearmove is activated, marking the beginning of a bearish phase. This systematic approach helps in understanding the current trend of the price. The script visually emphasizes these phases on the chart using plot shape markers, providing traders with clear indications of trend shifts.
Benefits of Using Trend Cloud:
Comprehensive Momentum Assessment: The script offers a holistic view of market momentum by incorporating RSI readings and changes in the closing price's EMA, enabling traders to identify both bullish and bearish phases effectively.
Structured Trend Recognition: With the calculation of boolean variables, the script provides a structured approach to recognizing shifts in momentum direction, enhancing traders' ability to interpret market dynamics.
Visual Clarity: Plotshape markers visually highlight the start and end of bullish and bearish phases on the chart, facilitating easy identification of trend shifts and helping traders to stay informed.
Prompt Response: Traders can promptly react to changing market conditions as the script triggers alerts when bullish or bearish phases begin, allowing them to seize potential trading opportunities swiftly.
Informed Decision-Making: By integrating various indicators and visual cues, the script enables traders to make well-informed decisions and adapt their strategies according to prevailing market sentiment, ultimately enhancing their trading performance.
How to use this feature:
The most effective way to maximize the benefits of this feature is to use it in conjunction with other key indicators and visual cues. By combining the color-coded clouds, which indicate bullish and bearish sentiment, with other features such as IS candles, microtrend candles, volume candles, and sentimeter candles, traders can gain a comprehensive understanding of market dynamics. For instance, aligning the color of the clouds with the trend direction indicated by IS candles, microtrend candles, and sentimeter candles can provide confirmation of trend strength or potential reversals.
Furthermore, traders can leverage the trend cloud as a trailing stop-loss tool for long entries, enhancing risk management strategies. By adjusting the stop-loss level based on the color of the cloud, traders can trail their positions to capture potential profits while minimizing losses. For long entries, maintaining the position as long as the cloud remains green can help traders stay aligned with the prevailing bullish sentiment. Conversely, a shift in color from green to red serves as a signal to exit the position, indicating a potential reversal in market sentiment and minimizing potential losses. This integration of the trend cloud as a trailing stop-loss mechanism adds an additional layer of risk management to trading strategies, increasing the likelihood of successful trades while reducing exposure to adverse market movements.
Moreover, the red cloud serves as an indicator of decay in option premiums and potential theta effect, particularly relevant for options traders. When the cloud turns red, it suggests a decline in option prices and an increase in theta decay, highlighting the importance of managing options positions accordingly. Traders may consider adjusting their options strategies, such as rolling positions or closing out contracts, to mitigate the impact of theta decay and preserve capital. By incorporating this insight into options pricing dynamics, traders can make more informed decisions about their options trades.
Scalping Opportunities (UpArrow and DownArrow):
Working Principle:
The feature calculates candlestick values based on the open, high, low, and close prices of each bar. By comparing these derived candlestick values, it determines whether the current candlestick is bullish or bearish. Additionally, it signals when there is a change in the color (bullish or bearish) of the derived candlesticks compared to the previous bar, enabling traders to identify potential shifts in market sentiment. This is a long only strategy, hence the signals are plotted only when the Trend Cloud is Green (Bullish).
Benefits of using UpArrow and DownArrow:
Clear Visualization: By employing color-coded candlesticks, the script offers traders a visually intuitive representation of market sentiment, enabling quick interpretation of prevailing conditions.
Signal Identification: Its capability to detect shifts in market sentiment serves as a valuable tool for identifying potential trading opportunities, facilitating timely decision-making and execution.
Long-Only Strategy: The script selectively plots signals only when the trend cloud is green, aligning with a bullish bias and enabling traders to focus on long positions during favorable market conditions.
Up arrows indicate potential long entry points, complementing the bullish bias of the trend cloud. Conversely, down arrows signify an active pullback in progress, signaling caution and prompting traders to refrain from entering long positions during such periods.
How to use this feature:
Confirmation: Confirm bullish market conditions with the Trend Cloud indicator. Ensure alignment between trend cloud signals, candlestick colors, and arrow indicators for confident trading decisions.
Entry Signals: Look for buy signals within a green trend cloud, indicated by bullish candlestick color changes and up arrows, suggesting potential long entry points aligned with the prevailing bullish sentiment.
Wait Signals: Exercise caution when encountering down arrows, which signify wait signals or active pullbacks in progress. Avoid entering long positions during these periods to avoid potential losses.
Exit Strategy: Use trend cloud color changes as signals to exit long positions. When the trend cloud shifts color, consider closing out long positions to lock in profits or minimize losses.
Profit Management: It's important to book or lock in some profits early on in option buying. Consider taking partial profits when the trade is in your favor and trail the remaining position to maximize gains on favorable trades.
Risk Management: Implement stop-loss orders or trailing stops to manage risk effectively. Exit positions promptly if sentiment shifts or if price movements deviate from the established trend, safeguarding capital.
Up and Down Signals:
Working Principle:
This feature calculates Trailing Stoploss (TSL) using the Average True Range (ATR) to dynamically adjust the stop level based on price movements. It generates buy signals when the price crosses above the trailing stop and sell signals when it crosses below. These signals are plotted on the chart and trigger alerts, signaling potential trading opportunities. Additionally, the script selectively plots Up and Down signals only when the Implementation Shortfall Calculation identifies scalp opportunities, independent of the prevailing price trend.
Benefits of using Up and Down Signals:
Trailing Stoploss: The script employs an ATR-based trailing stop, allowing traders to adjust stop levels dynamically in response to changing market conditions, thereby maximizing profit potential and minimizing losses.
Clear Signal Generation: Buy and sell signals are generated based on price interactions with the trailing stop, providing clear indications of entry and exit points for traders to act upon.
Alert Notifications: The script triggers alerts when buy or sell signals are generated, ensuring traders remain informed of potential trading opportunities even when not actively monitoring the charts.
Scalping Opportunities: By incorporating Implementation Shortfall Calculation, the script identifies scalp opportunities, enabling traders to capitalize on short-term price movements irrespective of the prevailing trend.
How to use this feature:
Signal Interpretation: Interpret Up signals as opportunities to enter long positions when the price crosses above the trailing stop, and Down signals as cues to exit.
Alert Monitoring: Pay attention to alert notifications triggered by the script, indicating potential trading opportunities based on signal generation.
Scalping Strategy: When Up and Down signals are plotted alongside scalp opportunities identified by the Implementation Shortfall Calculation, consider scalping trades aligned with these signals for short-term profit-taking, regardless of the overall market trend.
Consideration of Trend Cloud: Remember that this feature does not account for the underlying trend provided by the Trend Cloud feature. Consequently, the take profit levels generated by the trailing stop may be smaller than those derived from trend-following strategies. It's advisable to supplement this feature with additional trend analysis to optimize profit-taking levels and enhance overall trading performance.
Chart Timeframe Support and Resistance:
Working Principle:
This feature serves to identify and visualize support and resistance levels on the chart, primarily based on the chosen Chart Timeframe (CTF). It allows users to specify parameters such as the number of bars considered on the left and right sides of each pivot point, as well as line width and label color. Moreover, users have the option to enable or disable the display of these levels. By utilizing functions to calculate pivot highs and lows within the specified timeframe, the script determines the highest high and lowest low surrounding each pivot point.
Additionally, it defines functions to create lines and labels for each detected support and resistance level. Notably, this feature incorporates a trading method that emphasizes the concept of resistance turning into support after breakouts, thereby providing valuable insights for traders employing such strategies. These lines are drawn on the chart, with colors indicating whether the level is above or below the current close price, aiding traders in visualizing key levels and making informed trading decisions.
Benefits of Chart Timeframe Support and Resistance:
Identification of Price Levels: Support and resistance levels help traders identify significant price levels where buying (support) and selling (resistance) pressure may intensify. These levels are often formed based on historical price movements and are regarded as areas of interest for traders.
Decision Making: Support and resistance levels assist traders in making informed trading decisions. By observing price reactions near these levels, traders can gauge market sentiment and adjust their strategies accordingly. For example, traders may choose to enter or exit positions, set stop-loss orders, or take profit targets based on price behavior around these levels.
Risk Management: Support and resistance levels aid in risk management by providing reference points for setting stop-loss orders. Traders often place stop-loss orders below support levels for long positions and above resistance levels for short positions to limit potential losses if the market moves against them.
How to use this feature:
Planning Long Positions: When considering long positions, it's advantageous to strategize when the price is in proximity to a support level identified by the script. This suggests a potential area of buying interest where traders may expect a bounce or reversal in price. Additionally, confirm the bullish bias by ensuring that the trend cloud is green, indicating favorable market conditions for long trades.
Waiting for Breakout: If long signals are generated near resistance levels detected by the script, exercise patience and wait for a breakout above the resistance. A breakout above resistance signifies potential strength in the upward momentum and may present a more opportune moment to enter long positions. This approach aligns with trading methodologies that emphasize confirmation of bullish momentum before initiating trades.

SOFEX High-End Indicators + BacktestingBINANCE:BTCUSDT.P BINANCE:ETHUSDT.P
Introducing the first publicly available suite of indicators for Bitcoin and Ethereum by Sofex - the High-End Indicators & Backtesting System.
🔬 Trading Philosophy
The High-End Indicators & Backtesting system offers both trend-following and mean-reversal algorithms to provide traders with a deep insight into the highly volatile cryptocurrency markets, known for their market noise and vulnerability to manipulation.
With these factors in mind, our indicators are designed to sidestep most potentially false signals. This is facilitated further by the "middle-ground" time frame (1 Hour) we use. Our focus is on the two largest cryptocurrencies: Bitcoin and Ethereum , which provide high liquidity, necessary for reliable trading.
Therefore, we recommend using our suite on these markets.
The backtesting version of the Sofex High-End Indicators includes mainly trend-following indicators. This is because our trading vision is that volatility in cryptocurrency markets is a tool that should be used carefully, and many times avoided. Furthermore, mean-reversal trading can lead to short-term profits, but we have found it less than ideal for long-term trading.
The script does not aim to make a lot of trades, or to always remain in a position and switch from long to short. Many times there is no direction and the market is in "random walk mode", and chasing trades is futile.
Based on our experience, it is preferable if traders remain neutral the majority of the time and only enter trades that can be exited in the foreseeable future. Trading just for the sake of it ultimately leads to loss in the long-run.
Expectations of performance should be realistic.
We also focus on a balanced take-profit to stop-loss ratio. In the default set-up of the script, that is a 2% : 2% (1:1) ratio. A relatively low stop loss and take profit build onto our idea that positions should be exited promptly. There are many options to edit these values, including enabling trailing take profit and stop loss. Traders can also completely turn off TP and SL levels, and rely on opposing signals to exit and enter new trades.
Extreme scenarios can happen on the cryptocurrency markets, and disabling stop-loss levels completely is not recommended. The position size should be monitored since all of it is at risk with no stop-loss.
We take pride in presenting this comprehensive suite of trading indicators, designed for both manual and automated use. Although automated use leads to increased efficiency, traders are free to incorporate any of our indicators into their own manual trading strategy.
⚙️ Indicators
By default, all indicators are enabled for both Long and Short trades.
Extreme Trend Breakouts
The Extreme Trend Breakouts indicator seeks to follow breakouts of support and resistance levels, while also accounting for the unfortunate fact that false signals can be generated on these levels. The indicator combines trend-breakout strategies with various other volatility and direction measurements. It works best in the beginning of trends.
Underpinning this indicator are renowned Perry Kaufman's Adaptive Moving Averages (PKAMA) alongside our proprietary adaptive moving averages. These dynamic indicators adjust their parameters based on recent price movements, attempting to catch trends while maintaining consistent performance in the long run.
In addition, our modification of the TTM Squeeze indicator further enhances the Extreme Trend Breakouts indicator, making it more responsive, especially during the initial stages of trends and filtering of "flat" markets.
High-Volatility Trend Follower
The High-Volatility Trend Follower indicator is based around the logic of evading market conditions where volatility is low (choppy markets) and aggressively following confirmed trends. The indicator works best during strong trends, however, it has the downside of entering trades at trend tops or bottoms.
This indicator also leverages our proprietary adaptive moving averages to identify and follow high-volatility trends effectively. Furthermore, it uses the Average Directional Index, Aroon Oscillator, ATR and a modified version of VWAP, to categorize trends into weak or strong ones. The VWAP indicator is used to identify the monetary (volume) inflow into a given trend, further helping to avoid short-term manipulations.
Low-Volatility Reversal
The Low-Volatility Reversal aims at plugging the holes that trend-following indicators ignore. It specifically looks for choppy markets. Using proven concepts such as Relative Strength Index and volume measurements, among others, this indicator finds local tops and bottoms with good accuracy. It works best in choppy markets with low to medium volatility. It has a downside that all reversals have, losing trades at the end of choppy markets and in the beginning of big trends.
This indicator, like the others, employs PKAMA in conjunction with our proprietary adaptive moving averages, and an Average PSAR indicator to seek out "sideways" markets. Furthermore, Bollinger Bands with an adaptive basis line is used, with the idea of trading against the short-term trends by looking at big deviations in price movement. The above mentioned indicators attempt to catch local tops and bottoms in markets.
Adaptive Trend Convergence
The Adaptive Trend Convergence aims at following trends while avoiding entering positions at local bottoms and tops. It does so by comparing a number of adaptive moving averages and looking for convergence among them. Adaptive filtering techniques for avoiding choppy markets are also used.
This indicator utilizes our proprietary adaptive moving averages, and an Average Price Range indicator to identify trend convergence and divergence effectively, preventing false signals during volatile market phases. It also makes use of Bollinger Bands with an adaptive moving average basis line and price-action adjusted deviation. Contrasting to the Low-Volatility Reversal condition described above, the Bollinger Bands used here attempt to follow breakouts outside of the lower and upper bands.
Double-Filtered Channel Breakouts
The Double-Filtered Channel Breakouts indicator is made out of adaptive channel-identifying indicators. The indicator then follows trends that significantly diverge from the established channels. This aims at following extreme trends, where rapid, continuous movements in either direction occur. This indicator works best in very strong trends and follows them relentlessly. However, these strong trends can end in strong reversals, and the indicator can be stopped out on the last trade.
Our Double-Filtered Channel Breakouts indicator is built on a foundation of adaptive channel indicators. We've harnessed the power of Keltner Channels and Bollinger Band Channels, with a similar approach used in the Adaptive Trend Convergence indicator. The basis and upper/lower bands of the channels do not rely on fixed deviation parameters, rather on adaptive ones, based on price action and volatility. This combination seeks to identify and follows extreme trends.
Direction Tracker
The Direction Tracker indicator is made out of a central slower, adaptive moving average that clearly recognizes global, long-term trends. Combined with direction and range indicators, among others, this indicator excels at finding the long-term trend and ignoring temporary pullbacks in the opposite direction. It works best at the beginning and middle of long and strong trends. It can fail at the end of trends and on very strong historical resistance lines (where sharp reversals are common).
Our Direction Tracker indicator integrates an adaptive SuperTrend indicator into its core, alongside our proprietary adaptive moving averages, to accurately identify and track long-term trends while mitigating temporary pullbacks. Furthermore, it uses Average True Range, ADX and other volatility indicators to attempt to catch unusual moves on the market early-on.
📟 Parameters Menu
To offer traders flexibility, our system comes with a comprehensive parameter menu:
Preset Selection : Choose between Bitcoin or Ethereum presets to tailor the indicators to your preferred cryptocurrency market.
Global Signal Direction: Set the global signal direction as Long, Short, or Both, depending on your trading strategy.
Global Sensitivity Parameter : Adjust the system's sensitivity to adapt to different trend-following conditions, particularly beneficial during higher-strength trends.
Source of Signals : Toggle individual indicators on or off according to your preference. By default, all indicators are enabled. Customize the indicators to trade Long, Short, or Both, aligning them with your desired market exposure.

- When the activation level is reached, the system moves the trailing stop by a given Offset (%).
Additionally, you can enable exit at break-even, where the system places an exit order when the trail activation level is reached, accounting for fees and slippage.
Alert Messages : Define the fields for alert messages based on specific conditions. You can set up alerts to receive email, SMS, and in-app notifications. If you use webhooks for alerts, exercise caution, as these alerts can potentially execute trades without human supervision.
Backtesting : Default backtesting parameters are set to provide realistic backtesting performance:
- 0.04% Commission per trade (for both entries and exits)
- 3 ticks Slippage (highly dependent on exchange)
- Initial capital of $1000
- Order size of $1000
While the order size is equal to the initial capital, the script employs a 2% stop-loss order to limit losses and attempts to prevent risky trades from creating big losses. The order size is a set dollar value, so that the backtesting performance is linear, instead of using % of capital which may result in unrealistic backtesting performance.
Risk Disclaimer
Please be aware that backtesting results, while valuable for statistical overview, do not guarantee future performance in any way. Cryptocurrency markets are inherently volatile and risky. Always trade responsibly and do not risk more than you can afford to lose.

Compression MA (600 Max) [acatwithcharts]Compression MA is an experimental indicator which modifies Mean Reversion MA with a twist: it instead tracks the most compressed period on a given timeframe as a target for eventual mean reversion. This is a twist on the logic for trading volatility mean reversions in that here we work from the assumption that a period of compression means that there's volatility overhead that should provide resistance to a breakout. The compression MA should therefore help define range-bound areas and help predict intermediate resistances.
This required some tweaking of Mean Reversion MA rather than just making a modification to enable more features on that script, but much of the logic and settings are similar. I've also added an option on this script to turn off tracking and just give the current most compressed period, if any, which creates an entirely different chart and is great for identifying and defining areas of sideways, strongly range-bound compression, which should be scalpable.
This version caps the maximum period length at 600, an empirically-chosen number based on some testing of Mean Reversion MA to try to avoid picking overly distant targets and which dramatically improves stability. In practice, it should be extraordinarily rare for compression MA to need to track something longer than 600, small TFs notwithstanding.

SIP Evaluator and Screener [Trendoscope®]The SIP Evaluator and Screener is a Pine Script indicator designed for TradingView to calculate and visualize Systematic Investment Plan (SIP) returns across multiple investment instruments. It is tailored for use in TradingView's screener, enabling users to evaluate SIP performance for various assets efficiently.
🎲 How SIP Works
A Systematic Investment Plan (SIP) is an investment strategy where a fixed amount is invested at regular intervals (e.g., monthly or weekly) into a financial instrument, such as stocks, mutual funds, or ETFs. The goal is to build wealth over time by leveraging the power of compounding and mitigating the impact of market volatility through disciplined, consistent investing. Here’s a breakdown of how SIPs function:
Regular Investments : In an SIP, an investor commits to investing a fixed sum at predefined intervals, regardless of market conditions. This consistency helps inculcate a habit of saving and investing.
Cost Averaging : By investing a fixed amount regularly, investors purchase more units when prices are low and fewer units when prices are high. This approach, known as dollar-cost averaging, reduces the average cost per unit over time and mitigates the risk of investing a large amount at a peak price.
Compounding Benefits : Returns generated from the invested amount (e.g., capital gains or dividends) are reinvested, leading to exponential growth over the long term. The longer the investment horizon, the greater the potential for compounding to amplify returns.
Dividend Reinvestment : In some SIPs, dividends received from the underlying asset can be reinvested to purchase additional units, further enhancing returns. Taxes on dividends, if applicable, may reduce the reinvested amount.
Flexibility and Accessibility : SIPs allow investors to start with small amounts, making them accessible to a wide range of individuals. They also offer flexibility in terms of investment frequency and the ability to adjust or pause contributions.
In the context of the SIP Evaluator and Screener , the script simulates an SIP by calculating the number of units purchased with each fixed investment, factoring in commissions, dividends, taxes and the chosen price reference (e.g., open, close, or average prices). It tracks the cumulative investment, equity value, and dividends over time, providing a clear picture of how an SIP would perform for a given instrument. This helps users understand the impact of regular investing and make informed decisions when comparing different assets in TradingView’s screener. It offers insights into key metrics such as total invested amount, dividends received, equity value, and the number of installments, making it a valuable resource for investors and traders interested in understanding long-term investment outcomes.
🎲 Key Features
Customizable Investment Parameters: Users can define the recurring investment amount, price reference (e.g., open, close, HL2, HLC3, OHLC4), and whether fractional quantities are allowed.
Commission Handling: Supports both fixed and percentage-based commission types, adjusting calculations accordingly.
Dividend Reinvestment: Optionally reinvests dividends after a user-specified period, with the ability to apply tax on dividends.
Time-Bound Analysis: Allows users to set a start year for the analysis, enabling historical performance evaluation.
Flexible Dividend Periods: Dividends can be evaluated based on bars, days, weeks, or months.
Visual Outputs: Plots key metrics like total invested amount, dividends, equity value, and remainder, with customizable display options for clarity in the data window and chart.
🎲 Using the script as an indicator on Tradingview Supercharts
In order to use the indicator on charts, do the following.
Load the instrument of your choice - Preferably a stable stocks, ETFs.
Chose monthly timeframe as lower timeframes are insignificant in this type of investment strategy
Load the indicator SIP Evaluator and Screener and set the input parameters as per your preference.
Indicator plots, investment value, dividends and equity on the chart.
🎲 Visualizations
Installments : Displays the number of SIP installments (gray line, visible in the data window).
Invested Amount : Shows the cumulative amount invested, excluding reinvested dividends (blue area plot).
Dividends : Tracks total dividends received (green area plot).
Equity : Represents the current market value of the investment based on the closing price (purple area plot).
Remainder : Indicates any uninvested cash after each installment (gray line, visible in the data window).
🎲 Deep dive into the settings
The SIP Evaluator and Screener offers a range of customizable settings to tailor the Systematic Investment Plan (SIP) simulation to your preferences. Below is an explanation of each setting, its purpose, and how it impacts the analysis:
🎯 Duration
Start Year (Default: 2020) : Specifies the year from which the SIP calculations begin. When Start Year is enabled via the timebound option, the script only considers data from the specified year onward. This is useful for analyzing historical SIP performance over a defined period. If disabled, the script uses all available data.
Timebound (Default: False) : A toggle to enable or disable the Start Year restriction. When set to False, the SIP calculation starts from the earliest available data for the instrument.
🎯 Investment
Recurring Investment (Default: 1000.0) : The fixed amount invested in each SIP installment (e.g., $1000 per period). This represents the regular contribution to the SIP and directly influences the total invested amount and quantity purchased.
Allow Fractional Qty (Default: True) : When enabled, the script allows the purchase of fractional units (e.g., 2.35 shares). If disabled, only whole units are purchased (e.g., 2 shares), with any remaining funds carried forward as Remainder. This setting impacts the precision of investment allocation.
Price Reference (Default: OPEN): Determines the price used for purchasing units in each SIP installment. Options include:
OPEN : Uses the opening price of the bar.
CLOSE : Uses the closing price of the bar.
HL2 : Uses the average of the high and low prices.
HLC3 : Uses the average of the high, low, and close prices.
OHLC4 : Uses the average of the open, high, low, and close prices. This setting affects the cost basis of each purchase and, consequently, the total quantity and equity value.
🎯 Commission
Commission (Default: 3) : The commission charged per SIP installment, expressed as either a fixed amount (e.g., $3) or a percentage (e.g., 3% of the investment). This reduces the amount available for purchasing units.
Commission Type (Default: Fixed) : Specifies how the commission is calculated:
Fixed ($) : A flat fee is deducted per installment (e.g., $3).
Percentage (%) : A percentage of the investment amount is deducted as commission (e.g., 3% of $1000 = $30). This setting affects the net amount invested and the overall cost of the SIP.
🎯 Dividends
Apply Tax On Dividends (Default: False) : When enabled, a tax is applied to dividends before they are reinvested or recorded. The tax rate is set via the Dividend Tax setting.
Dividend Tax (Default: 47) : The percentage of tax deducted from dividends if Apply Tax On Dividends is enabled (e.g., 47% tax reduces a $100 dividend to $53). This reduces the amount available for reinvestment or accumulation.
Reinvest Dividends After (Default: True, 2) : When enabled, dividends received are reinvested to purchase additional units after a specified period (e.g., 2 units of time, defined by Dividends Availability). If disabled, dividends are tracked but not reinvested. Reinvestment increases the total quantity and equity over time.
Dividends Availability (Default: Bars) : Defines the time unit for evaluating when dividends are available for reinvestment. Options include:
Bars : Based on the number of chart bars.
Weeks : Based on weeks.
Months : Based on months (approximated as 30.5 days). This setting determines the timing of dividend reinvestment relative to the Reinvest Dividends After period.
🎯 How Settings Interact
These settings work together to simulate a realistic SIP. For example, a $1000 recurring investment with a 3% commission and fractional quantities enabled will calculate the number of units purchased at the chosen price reference after deducting the commission. If dividends are reinvested after 2 months with a 47% tax, the script fetches dividend data, applies the tax, and adds the net dividend to the investment amount for that period. The Start Year and Timebound settings ensure the analysis aligns with the desired timeframe, while the Dividends Availability setting fine-tunes dividend reinvestment timing.
By adjusting these settings, users can model different SIP scenarios, compare performance across instruments in TradingView’s screener, and gain insights into how commissions, dividends, and price references impact long-term returns.
🎲 Using the script with Pine Screener
The main purpose of developing this script is to use it with Tradingview Pine Screener so that multiple ETFs/Funds can be compared.
In order to use this as a screener, the following things needs to be done.

Real Cumulative Delta VolumeReal Cumulative Delta Volume (CDV) - Enhanced Volume Flow Analysis
What This Indicator Does
This indicator calculates cumulative delta volume using an enhanced approximation methodology that analyzes buying and selling pressure within each candlestick. It provides traders with insights into volume flow dynamics by tracking the cumulative difference between estimated buy and sell volumes over time.
Technical Methodology & Calculation Details
Volume Distribution Algorithm: The indicator uses a price-weighted distribution method to estimate buy and sell volumes within each bar:
Delta multiplier = (close - low) / (high - low)
Buy volume = total volume × delta multiplier
Sell volume = total volume × (1 - delta multiplier)
Net delta = buy volume - sell volume
Cumulative Delta Tracking: Unlike basic volume indicators, this approach maintains a running cumulative total of net delta values:
CDV Open = Previous CDV Close
CDV Close = Previous CDV Close + Net Delta
CDV High/Low = Previous CDV Close + estimated intrabar extremes
Enhanced Features Beyond Standard CDV:
Divergence Detection: Automatically identifies when price direction conflicts with volume flow direction
Body Size Analysis: Compares current vs previous CDV candle body sizes to detect momentum changes
Conditional Color Coding: Special visual alerts when specific price/volume relationships occur
Signal Generation: Buy/sell signals based on divergence resolution patterns
How This Differs from Basic Cumulative Delta
Standard Limitations Addressed:
Most cumulative delta indicators on TradingView use simple uptick/downtick classification. This indicator enhances the approach by:
Price-Weighted Distribution: Instead of assuming 50/50 volume splits, uses the bar's price action (close relative to high/low) to estimate volume distribution
OHLC Representation: Displays CDV as candlesticks rather than just a line, showing intrabar volume dynamics
Integrated Divergence Detection: Built-in algorithms identify price/volume conflicts automatically
Advanced Signal Logic: Multi-condition signal generation beyond simple crossovers
Visual Enhancement Features:
Dual display modes (candlestick or line)
Special color coding for divergence conditions
Moving average overlays for trend confirmation
Optional buy/sell signal markers
Signal Generation Logic
Buy Signals Generated When:
Previous bar showed bearish divergence (price down, CDV up)
Current CDV candle shows specific color condition
Current CDV body is contained within previous divergence body
Price closes above previous high
Sell Signals Generated When:
Previous bar showed bullish divergence (price up, CDV down)
Current CDV candle shows specific color condition
Current CDV body is contained within previous divergence body
Price closes below previous low
Trading Applications
Volume Flow Analysis:
Identify periods of hidden accumulation or distribution
Spot when large players are buying/selling against the price trend
Confirm trend strength through volume alignment
Divergence Trading:
Early warning system for potential reversals
Identify when price movements lack volume support

Adjustable transparency and styling options
Usage Guidelines & Limitations
Best Practices:
Most effective on timeframes 15m and higher due to volume data quality
Works best in liquid markets with consistent volume
Should be used alongside price action analysis and support/resistance levels
Signals are more reliable during trending market conditions
Technical Limitations:
Uses approximation methods due to lack of tick-by-tick data in Pine Script

Time-Weighted Fractality (TWF)The Time-Weighted Fractality (TWF) indicator is your secret weapon to measure how stable or volatile a market truly is — by tracking how long trends persist, and weighting that against recent history.
Why you need TWF in your toolkit:
Markets aren’t always trending or choppy in a simple on/off way. TWF quantifies trend duration dynamics — revealing when the market is locked into a strong, stable trend or stuck in erratic, unpredictable moves.
How it works — sharp and simple:
Trend Duration Tracking:
Measures how many bars since the last highest high changed within a specified lookback. This tells you how long the current trend has been running.
Smoothed Average Duration:
Uses an EMA to smooth trend duration, providing a reliable baseline of recent trend behavior.
Ratio Calculation (TWF):
The core metric — current trend duration divided by average trend duration.
TWF > 1.2 means the current trend is stronger and more persistent than usual.
TWF < 0.8 signals a volatile, choppy market struggling to hold any trend.
What you see on the chart:
A clean TWF line plotted with clear zones:
Green zone = Strong, stable trend environment
Red zone = Choppy, volatile conditions to avoid or trade cautiously
Background shading highlights these zones for instant clarity
Markers appear at critical points for quick visual cues
Why traders swear by it:
✅ Reliable trend confirmation: Avoid false signals by only acting when TWF confirms sustained market momentum.
✅ Timing tool: Perfect for spotting when a trend is building strength or losing grip — invaluable for entries and exits.
✅ Versatile: Works on all timeframes and instruments, from forex to stocks to crypto.
✅ Simple but powerful: Combines fractal concept with time weighting and smoothing — giving you a next-level understanding of market rhythm.
Pro tip:
Use TWF alongside your favorite price or volume-based indicators for unmatched precision. For example, confirm breakouts only when TWF signals a stable trend zone to increase your win rate.
In a sea of noise, TWF cuts through to give you real, actionable insight. Trust it, build your strategy around it — it’s that good.
True Range eXpansion🕯️ TRX — True Range eXpansion
Clean Candle Bodies · Volatility Bands · Adaptive Range Envelope System
Not your grandfather’s candles. Not your brokerage’s bands.
----------------------------------------------------
TRX begins with a simple concept: visualize the true range of every candle, without the noise of flickering wicks.
From there, it grows into a fully adaptive price visualization framework.
What started as a candle-only visualizer evolved into a modular, user-controlled price engine.
From wickless candle clarity to dynamic volatility envelopes, TRX adapts to you.
There are plenty of band and channel indicators out there — Bollinger, Keltner, Donchian, Envelope, the whole crew.
But none of them are built on the true candle range, adaptive ATR shaping, and full user control like TRX.
This isn’t just another indicator — it’s a new framework.
Most bands and channels are based on close price and statistical deviation — useful, but limited.
TRX uses the full true range of each candle as its foundation, then applies customizable smoothing and directional ATR scaling to form a dynamic, volatility-reactive envelope.
The result? Bands that breathe with the market — not lag behind it.
----------------------------------------------------
🔧 Core Features:
🕯️ True Range Candles — Each candle is plotted from low to high, body-only, colored by open/close.
📈 Adjustable High/Low Moving Averages — Select your smoothing style: SMA, EMA, WMA, RMA, or HMA.
🌬️ ATR-Based Expansion — Bands dynamically breathe based on market volatility.
🔀 Per-Band Multipliers — Fine-tune expansion individually for the upper and lower bands.
⚖️ Basis Line — Optional centerline between bands for structure tracking and equilibrium zones.
🎛️ Full Visual Control — Width, transparency, color, on/off toggles for each element.
----------------------------------------------------
🧠 Default Use Case:
With the included default settings, TRX behaves like an evolved Bollinger Band system — based on True Range candle structure, not just close price and standard deviation.
----------------------------------------------------
🔄 How to Zero Out the Bands (for Minimalist Use):
Want just candles? A clean MA? Single band? You got it.
➤ Use TRX like a clean moving average:
• Set ATR Multiplier to 0
• Set both Band ATR Adjustments to 0
• Leave the Basis Line ON or OFF — your call
➤ Show only candles (no bands at all):
• Turn off "Show High/Low MAs"
• Turn off Basis Line
➤ Single-line ceiling or floor tracking:
• Set one band’s Transparency to 100
• Use the remaining band as a price envelope or support/resistance guide
----------------------------------------------------
🧬 Notes:
TRX can be made:
• Spiky or silky (via smoothing & ATR)
• Wide or tight (via multipliers)
• Subtle or aggressive (via color/transparency)
• Clean as a compass or dirty as a chaos meter
Built by accident. Tuned with intention.
Released to the world as one of the most adaptable and expressive visual overlays ever made.

Circuit % Marker w/ Mirrored Arrows📈 Indian Market Circuit Limit Change Tracker
This indicator automatically tracks circuit limit changes (price bands) as applied in NSE/BSE stocks.
🧠 How It Works:
Start from a user-defined initial circuit limit (e.g. 10%)
If the upper or lower limit is hit, the script waits for a user-defined cooling period (e.g. 5 trading days)
After that, it automatically adjusts to the next lower or higher band (e.g. from 10% to 5%)
Shows a visual label with the current circuit % right on the chart — placed above or below candles for better visibility
🔧 Custom Inputs:
Starting Circuit % — choose between standard NSE/BSE values (20%, 10%, 5%, 2%)
Cooling Days — how many days must pass after a circuit hit before it’s allowed to change again
Label Positioning, Color, and Size — fully customizable to suit your chart style
🚫 No Clutter:
Doesn’t draw circuit limit lines
Just clean, small labels at key turning points — as seen in real trading dashboards
🔍 Notes:
NSE and BSE manually assign circuit bands — this script does not fetch live exchange data
Use it as a visual tracker and simulator of how circuit behavior would evolve under fixed rules
Consecutive Candles Above/Below EMADescription:
This indicator identifies and highlights periods where the price remains consistently above or below an Exponential Moving Average (EMA) for a user-defined number of consecutive candles. It visually marks these sustained trends with background colors and labels, helping traders spot strong bullish or bearish market conditions. Ideal for trend-following strategies or identifying potential trend exhaustion points, this tool provides clear visual cues for price behavior relative to the EMA.
How It Works:
EMA Calculation: The indicator calculates an EMA based on the user-specified period (default: 100). The EMA is plotted as a blue line on the chart for reference.
Consecutive Candle Tracking: It counts how many consecutive candles close above or below the EMA:
If a candle closes below the EMA, the "below" counter increments; any candle closing above resets it to zero.
If a candle closes above the EMA, the "above" counter increments; any candle closing below resets it to zero.
Highlighting Trends: When the number of consecutive candles above or below the EMA meets or exceeds the user-defined threshold (default: 200 candles):
A translucent red background highlights periods where the price has been below the EMA.
A translucent green background highlights periods where the price has been above the EMA.
Labeling: When the required number of consecutive candles is first reached:
A red downward arrow label with the text "↓ Below" appears for below-EMA streaks.
A green upward arrow label with the text "↑ Above" appears for above-EMA streaks.
Usage:
Trend Confirmation: Use the highlights and labels to confirm strong trends. For example, 200 candles above the EMA may indicate a robust uptrend.
Reversal Signals: Prolonged streaks (e.g., 200+ candles) might suggest overextension, potentially signaling reversals.
Customization: Adjust the EMA period to make it faster or slower, and modify the candle count to make the indicator more or less sensitive to trends.
Settings:
EMA Length: Set the period for the EMA calculation (default: 100).
Candles Count: Define the minimum number of consecutive candles required to trigger highlights and labels (default: 200).
Visuals:
Blue EMA line for tracking the moving average.
Red background for sustained below-EMA periods.
Green background for sustained above-EMA periods.
Labeled arrows to mark when the streak threshold is met.
This indicator is a powerful tool for traders looking to visualize and capitalize on persistent price trends relative to the EMA, with clear, customizable signals for market analysis.

Hyperion Crypto Matrix: Ultimate Market Sentinel
// 🔰 HYPERION CRYPTO MATRIX: ULTIMATE MARKET SENTINEL
// ─────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────
/*
The **Hyperion Crypto Matrix** is an advanced crypto trend-following strategy built from the ground up for precision, not just performance. Unlike traditional “mashups” of indicators, this system was **engineered around synergy**—each module is purpose-driven and non-redundant, delivering fast, filtered, high-probability signals in volatile crypto markets.
─────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────
📌 STRATEGY PURPOSE
─────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────
Hyperion is built for **1-hour crypto trading** and optimizes for:
- High Win Rate
- Early Exits on Trend Weakness
- Partial Position Scaling (TP1/TP2)
- Real-time trade performance tracking
It is ideal for traders who want **real-time trade logic** with:
- No repainting
- No overfitting
- Realistic entry/exit structure
- No same-bar entry & exit (enforces 1-bar delay)
─────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────
🧠 WHAT MAKES IT ORIGINAL
─────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────
Each component is **custom-integrated** with strict role separation:
- **Trend Direction:** Enhanced Wave Oscillator (EWO) with adaptive band filtering
- **Trend Strength Memory:** Relative Momentum Index (RMI) with threshold locking
- **Volume Confirmation:** Historical relative volume spike filter using SMA multiplier
- **Momentum Weakness Exit:** Combined ROC and CCI to detect early reversal before price turns
- **Position Tracking:** TP1 (50% exit), TP2 (100% close) with cooldown to prevent whipsaws
- **Dynamic Dashboard:** Real-time stats including win rate, PnL efficiency, and TP hit status
These aren’t just “plugged in” indicators—they are synchronized to **filter, confirm, and adapt** to price action with timing logic that prevents premature entries or late exits.
─────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────
📊 INDICATOR LOGIC OVERVIEW
─────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────
1. **📈 Enhanced Wave Oscillator (EWO):**
- Calculates the delta between a fast and slow EMA (5 vs. 34 by default)
- Uses a dynamic banding system to detect peaks/troughs and prevent entries during exhaustion
- Filters only active, accelerating trends — reducing false positives
2. **🧠 Relative Momentum Index (RMI):**
- Similar to RSI but with a forward-looking momentum comparison
- Confirms trend *persistence* over time, preventing entries on short-term flips
- Long entries only allowed when RMI > threshold (default 55), short if RMI < 45
3. **🔊 Volume Spike Filter:**
- Uses 20-bar SMA of volume and a multiplier (1.5x default) to detect **relative volume breakouts**
- Prevents trades in low-liquidity environments (e.g., chop, overnight sessions)
4. **📉 Weak Trend Close Logic:**
- Combines Rate of Change (ROC) and Commodity Channel Index (CCI)
- Detects early signs of momentum deterioration, often before the trend visually reverses
- Triggers exit before price falls into sideways zones
5. **🎯 Take Profit System (TP1/TP2):**
- TP1: 50% position closed at +2% (default)
- TP2: Full close at +4% (default)
- Uses `strategy.exit()` with limit orders based on entry price
6. **⏱️ Reentry Cooldown:**
- After TP2 or weak trend exit, system enforces a 1-bar delay before reentry
- Avoids frequent churn in flat or noisy environments
7. **📋 Real-Time Dashboard (Optional):**
- Displays live trade status, PnL metrics, TP1/TP2 hit status, bars since entry, win rate %, and profit factor
- Color-coded background to highlight active trade direction (green for long, red for short)
─────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────
⚙️ HOW TO USE
─────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────
1. Load on a 1H chart of a crypto asset with good liquidity (e.g., BTC, ETH, LINK)
2. Toggle between \"Long Only\", \"Short Only\", or \"Both\" in the settings
3. Use default TP1/TP2 percentages, or tune them for the asset’s volatility
4. Observe trade execution and live stats on the optional dashboard
5. Review the bar coloring for EWO trend bias confirmation
> Stop-loss logic is not included. This strategy assumes exits occur at TP2 or on trend/momentum failure.
─────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────
⚖️ TRADINGVIEW COMPLIANCE & USAGE DISCLAIMER
─────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────
This strategy does **not repaint**, is fully compatible with **TradingView backtesting**, and adheres to all known Pine Script execution rules.
⚠️ **Disclaimer:** This script is for educational purposes only and does not constitute financial advice. Trading cryptocurrencies involves significant risk. Always test strategies on a demo account and consult with a financial advisor before live trading.
─────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────
🧪 CONCLUSION
─────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────
The **Hyperion Crypto Matrix** is not a mashup—it’s a **modular, optimized, logic-driven system** crafted for real-world crypto trading. Every component has been tuned for function, not fluff.
