Aurora Flow Oscillator [QuantAlgo]The Aurora Flow Oscillator is an advanced momentum-based technical indicator designed to identify market direction, momentum shifts, and potential reversal zones using adaptive filtering techniques. It visualizes price momentum through a dynamic oscillator that quantifies trend strength and direction, helping traders and investors recognize momentum shifts and trading opportunities across various timeframes and asset class.
🟢 Technical Foundation
The Aurora Flow Oscillator employs a sophisticated mathematical approach with adaptive momentum filtering to analyze market conditions, including:
Price-Based Momentum Calculation: Calculates logarithmic price changes to measure the rate and magnitude of market movement
Adaptive Momentum Filtering: Applies an advanced filtering algorithm to smooth momentum calculations while preserving important signals
Acceleration Analysis: Incorporates momentum acceleration to identify shifts in market direction before they become obvious
Signal Normalization: Automatically scales the oscillator output to a range between -100 and 100 for consistent interpretation across different market conditions
The indicator processes price data through multiple filtering stages, applying mathematical principles including exponential smoothing with adaptive coefficients. This creates an oscillator that dynamically adjusts to market volatility while maintaining responsiveness to genuine trend changes.
🟢 Key Features & Signals
1. Momentum Flow and Extreme Zone Identification
The oscillator presents market momentum through an intuitive visual display that clearly indicates both direction and strength:
Above Zero: Indicates positive momentum and potential bullish conditions
Below Zero: Indicates negative momentum and potential bearish conditions
Slope Direction: The angle and direction of the oscillator provide immediate insight into momentum strength
Zero Line Crossings: Signal potential trend changes and new directional momentum
The indicator also identifies potential overbought and oversold market conditions through extreme zone markings:
Upper Zone (>50): Indicates strong bullish momentum that may be approaching exhaustion
Lower Zone (<-50): Indicates strong bearish momentum that may be approaching exhaustion
Extreme Boundaries (±95): Mark potentially unsustainable momentum levels where reversals become increasingly likely
These zones are displayed with gradient intensity that increases as the oscillator moves toward extremes, helping traders and investors:
→ Identify potential reversal zones
→ Determine appropriate entry and exit points
→ Gauge overall market sentiment strength
2. Customizable Trading Style Presets
The Aurora Flow Oscillator offers pre-configured settings for different trading approaches:
Default (80,150): Balanced configuration suitable for most trading and investing situations.
Scalping (5,80): Highly responsive settings for ultra-short-term trades. Generates frequent signals and catches quick price movements. Best for 1-15min charts when making many trades per day.
Day Trading (8,120): Optimized for intraday movements with faster response than default settings while maintaining reasonable signal quality. Ideal for 5-60min or 4h-12h timeframes.
Swing Trading (10,200): Designed for multi-day positions with stronger noise filtering. Focuses on capturing larger price swings while avoiding minor fluctuations. Works best on 1-4h and daily charts.
Position Trading (14,250): For longer-term position traders/investors seeking significant market trends. Reduces false signals by heavily filtering market noise. Ideal for daily or even weekly charts.
Trend Following (16,300): Maximum smoothing that prioritizes established directional movements over short-term fluctuations. Best used on daily and weekly charts, but can also be used for lower timeframe trading.
Countertrend (7,100): Tuned to detect potential reversals and exhaustion points in trends. More sensitive to momentum shifts than other presets. Effective on 15min-4h charts, as well as daily and weekly charts.
Each preset automatically adjusts internal parameters for optimal performance in the selected trading context, providing flexibility across different market approaches without requiring complex manual configuration.
🟢 Practical Usage Tips
1/ Trend Analysis and Interpretation
→ Direction Assessment: Evaluate the oscillator's position relative to zero to determine underlying momentum bias
→ Momentum Strength: Measure the oscillator's distance from zero within the -100 to +100 range to quantify momentum magnitude
→ Trend Consistency: Monitor the oscillator's path for sustained directional movement without frequent zero-line crossings
→ Reversal Detection: Watch for oscillator divergence from price and deceleration of movement when approaching extreme zones
2/ Signal Generation Strategies
Depending on your trading approach, multiple signal strategies can be employed:
Trend Following Signals:
Enter long positions when the oscillator crosses above zero
Enter short positions when the oscillator crosses below zero
Add to positions on pullbacks while maintaining the overall trend direction
Countertrend Signals:
Look for potential reversals when the oscillator reaches extreme zones (±95)
Enter contrary positions when momentum shows signs of exhaustion
Use oscillator divergence with price as additional confirmation
Momentum Shift Signals:
Enter positions when oscillator changes direction after establishing a trend
Exit positions when oscillator direction reverses against your position
Scale position size based on oscillator strength percentage
3/ Timeframe Optimization
The indicator can be effectively applied across different timeframes with these considerations:
Lower Timeframes (1-15min):
Use Scalping or Day Trading presets
Focus on quick momentum shifts and zero-line crossings
Be cautious of noise in extreme market conditions
Medium Timeframes (30min-4h):
Use Default or Swing Trading presets
Look for established trends and potential reversal zones
Combine with support/resistance analysis for entry/exit precision
Higher Timeframes (Daily+):
Use Position Trading or Trend Following presets
Focus on major trend identification and long-term positioning
Use extreme zones for position management rather than immediate reversals
🟢 Pro Tips
Price Momentum Period:
→ Lower values (5-7) increase sensitivity to minor price fluctuations but capture more market noise
→ Higher values (10-16) emphasize sustained momentum shifts at the cost of delayed response
→ Adjust based on your timeframe (lower for shorter timeframes, higher for longer timeframes)
Oscillator Filter Period:
→ Lower values (80-120) produce more frequent directional changes and earlier response to momentum shifts
→ Higher values (200-300) filter out shorter-term fluctuations to highlight dominant market cycles
→ Match to your typical holding period (shorter holding time = lower filter values)
Multi-Timeframe Analysis:
→ Compare oscillator readings across different timeframes for confluence
→ Look for alignment between higher and lower timeframe signals
→ Use higher timeframe for trend direction, lower for earlier entries
Volatility-Adaptive Trading:
→ Use oscillator strength to adjust position sizing (stronger = larger)
→ Consider reducing exposure when oscillator reaches extreme zones
→ Implement tighter stops during periods of oscillator acceleration
Combination Strategies:
→ Pair with volume indicators for confirmation of momentum shifts
→ Use with support/resistance levels for strategic entry and exit points
→ Combine with volatility indicators for comprehensive market context

Quarterly Cycle Theory with DST time AdjustedThe Quarterly Theory removes ambiguity, as it gives specific time-based reference points to look for when entering trades. Before being able to apply this theory to trading, one must first understand that time is fractal:
Yearly Quarters = 4 quarters of three months each.
Monthly Quarters = 4 quarters of one week each.
Weekly Quarters = 4 quarters of one day each (Monday - Thursday). Friday has its own specific function.
Daily Quarters = 4 quarters of 6 hours each = 4 trading sessions of a trading day.
Sessions Quarters = 4 quarters of 90 minutes each.
90 Minute Quarters = 4 quarters of 22.5 minutes each.
Yearly Cycle: Analogously to financial quarters, the year is divided in four sections of three months each:
Q1 - January, February, March.
Q2 - April, May, June (True Open, April Open).
Q3 - July, August, September.
Q4 - October, November, December.
S&P 500 E-mini Futures (daily candles) — Monthly Cycle.
Monthly Cycle: Considering that we have four weeks in a month, we start the cycle on the first month’s Monday (regardless of the calendar Day):
Q1 - Week 1: first Monday of the month.
Q2 - Week 2: second Monday of the month (True Open, Daily Candle Open Price).
Q3 - Week 3: third Monday of the month.
Q4 - Week 4: fourth Monday of the month.
S&P 500 E-mini Futures (4 hour candles) — Weekly Cycle.
Weekly Cycle: Daye determined that although the trading week is composed by 5 trading days, we should ignore Friday, and the small portion of Sunday’s price action:
Q1 - Monday.
Q2 - Tuesday (True Open, Daily Candle Open Price).
Q3 - Wednesday.
Q4 - Thursday.
S&P 500 E-mini Futures (1 hour candles) — Daily Cycle.
Daily Cycle: The Day can be broken down into 6 hour quarters. These times roughly define the sessions of the trading day, reinforcing the theory’s validity:

Multi-Timeframe Anchored VWAP Valuation# Multi-Timeframe Anchored VWAP Valuation
## Overview
This indicator provides a unique perspective on potential price valuation by comparing the current price to the Volume Weighted Average Price (VWAP) anchored to the start of multiple timeframes: Weekly, Monthly, Quarterly, and Yearly. It synthesizes these comparisons into a single oscillator value, helping traders gauge if the current price is potentially extended relative to significant volume-weighted levels.
## Core Concept & Calculation
1. **Anchored VWAP:** The script calculates the VWAP separately for the current Week, Month, Quarter (3 Months), and Year (12 Months), starting the calculation from the first bar of each period.
2. **Price Deviation:** It measures how far the current `close` price is from each of these anchored VWAPs. This distance is measured in terms of standard deviations calculated *within* that specific anchor period (e.g., how many weekly standard deviations the price is away from the weekly VWAP).
3. **Deviation Score (Multiplier):** Based on this standard deviation distance, a score is assigned. The further the price is from the VWAP (in terms of standard deviations), the higher the absolute score. The indicator uses linear interpolation to determine scores between the standard deviation levels (defaulted at 1, 2, and 3 standard deviations corresponding to scores of +/-2, +/-3, +/-4, with a score of 1 at the VWAP).
4. **Timeframe Weighting:** Longer timeframes are considered more significant. The deviation scores are multiplied by fixed scalars: Weekly (x1), Monthly (x2), Quarterly (x3), Yearly (x4).
5. **Final Valuation Metric:** The weighted scores from all four timeframes are summed up to produce the final oscillator value plotted in the indicator pane.
## How to Interpret and Use
* **Histogram (Indicator Pane):**
* The main output is the histogram representing the `Final Valuation Metric`.
* **Positive Values:** Suggest the price is generally trading above its volume-weighted averages across the timeframes, potentially indicating strength or relative "overvaluation."
* **Negative Values:** Suggest the price is generally trading below its volume-weighted averages, potentially indicating weakness or relative "undervaluation."
* **Values Near Zero:** Indicate the price is relatively close to its volume-weighted averages.
* **Histogram Color:**
* The color of the histogram bars provides context based on the metric's *own recent history*.
* **Green (Positive Color):** The metric is currently *above* its recent average plus a standard deviation band (dynamic upper threshold). This highlights potentially significant "overvalued" readings relative to its normal range.
* **Red (Negative Color):** The metric is currently *below* its recent average minus a standard deviation band (dynamic lower threshold). This highlights potentially significant "undervalued" readings relative to its normal range.
* **Gray (Neutral Color):** The metric is within its typical recent range (between the dynamic upper and lower thresholds).
* **Orange Line:** Plots the moving average of the `Final Valuation Metric` itself (based on the "Threshold Lookback Period"), serving as the centerline for the dynamic thresholds.
* **On-Chart Table:**
* Provides a detailed breakdown for transparency.
* Shows the calculated VWAP, the raw deviation multiplier score, and the final weighted (adjusted) metric for each individual timeframe (W, M, Q, Y).
* Displays the current price, the final combined metric value, and a textual interpretation ("Overvalued", "Undervalued", "Neutral") based on the dynamic thresholds.
## Potential Use Cases
* Identifying potential exhaustion points when the indicator reaches statistically high (green) or low (red) levels relative to its recent history.
* Assessing whether price trends are supported by underlying volume-weighted average prices across multiple timeframes.
* Can be used alongside other technical analysis tools for confirmation.
## Settings
* **Calculation Settings:**
* `STDEV Level 1`: Adjusts the 1st standard deviation level (default 1.0).
* `STDEV Level 2`: Adjusts the 2nd standard deviation level (default 2.0).
* `STDEV Level 3`: Adjusts the 3rd standard deviation level (default 3.0).
* **Interpretation Settings:**
* `Threshold Lookback Period`: Defines the number of bars used to calculate the average and standard deviation of the final metric for dynamic thresholds (default 200).
* `Threshold StDev Multiplier`: Controls how many standard deviations above/below the metric's average are used to set the "Overvalued"/"Undervalued" thresholds (default 1.0).
* **Table Settings:** Customize the position and colors of the data table displayed on the chart.
## Important Considerations
* This indicator measures price deviation relative to *anchored* VWAPs and its *own historical range*. It is not a standalone trading system.
* The interpretation of "Overvalued" and "Undervalued" is relative to the indicator's logic and calculations; it does not guarantee future price movement.
* Like all indicators, past performance is not indicative of future results. Use this tool as part of a comprehensive analysis and risk management strategy.
* The anchored VWAP and Standard Deviation values reset at the beginning of each respective period (Week, Month, Quarter, Year).
Correlation Heatmap█ OVERVIEW
This indicator creates a correlation matrix for a user-specified list of symbols based on their time-aligned weekly or monthly price returns. It calculates the Pearson correlation coefficient for each possible symbol pair, and it displays the results in a symmetric table with heatmap-colored cells. This format provides an intuitive view of the linear relationships between various symbols' price movements over a specific time range.
█ CONCEPTS
Correlation
Correlation typically refers to an observable statistical relationship between two datasets. In a financial time series context, it usually represents the extent to which sampled values from a pair of datasets, such as two series of price returns, vary jointly over time. More specifically, in this context, correlation describes the strength and direction of the relationship between the samples from both series.
If two separate time series tend to rise and fall together proportionally, they might be highly correlated. Likewise, if the series often vary in opposite directions, they might have a strong anticorrelation . If the two series do not exhibit a clear relationship, they might be uncorrelated .
Traders frequently analyze asset correlations to help optimize portfolios, assess market behaviors, identify potential risks, and support trading decisions. For instance, correlation often plays a key role in diversification . When two instruments exhibit a strong correlation in their returns, it might indicate that buying or selling both carries elevated unsystematic risk . Therefore, traders often aim to create balanced portfolios of relatively uncorrelated or anticorrelated assets to help promote investment diversity and potentially offset some of the risks.
When using correlation analysis to support investment decisions, it is crucial to understand the following caveats:
• Correlation does not imply causation . Two assets might vary jointly over an analyzed range, resulting in high correlation or anticorrelation in their returns, but that does not indicate that either instrument directly influences the other. Joint variability between assets might occur because of shared sensitivities to external factors, such as interest rates or global sentiment, or it might be entirely coincidental. In other words, correlation does not provide sufficient information to identify cause-and-effect relationships.
• Correlation does not predict the future relationship between two assets. It only reflects the estimated strength and direction of the relationship between the current analyzed samples. Financial time series are ever-changing. A strong trend between two assets can weaken or reverse in the future.
Correlation coefficient
A correlation coefficient is a numeric measure of correlation. Several coefficients exist, each quantifying different types of relationships between two datasets. The most common and widely known measure is the Pearson product-moment correlation coefficient , also known as the Pearson correlation coefficient or Pearson's r . Usually, when the term "correlation coefficient" is used without context, it refers to this correlation measure.
The Pearson correlation coefficient quantifies the strength and direction of the linear relationship between two variables. In other words, it indicates how consistently variables' values move together or in opposite directions in a proportional, linear manner. Its formula is as follows:
𝑟(𝑥, 𝑦) = cov(𝑥, 𝑦) / (𝜎𝑥 * 𝜎𝑦)
Where:
• 𝑥 is the first variable, and 𝑦 is the second variable.
• cov(𝑥, 𝑦) is the covariance between 𝑥 and 𝑦.
• 𝜎𝑥 is the standard deviation of 𝑥.
• 𝜎𝑦 is the standard deviation of 𝑦.
In essence, the correlation coefficient measures the covariance between two variables, normalized by the product of their standard deviations. The coefficient's value ranges from -1 to 1, allowing a more straightforward interpretation of the relationship between two datasets than what covariance alone provides:
• A value of 1 indicates a perfect positive correlation over the analyzed sample. As one variable's value changes, the other variable's value changes proportionally in the same direction .
• A value of -1 indicates a perfect negative correlation (anticorrelation). As one variable's value increases, the other variable's value decreases proportionally.
• A value of 0 indicates no linear relationship between the variables over the analyzed sample.
Aligning returns across instruments
In a financial time series, each data point (i.e., bar) in a sample represents information collected in periodic intervals. For instance, on a "1D" chart, bars form at specific times as successive days elapse.
However, the times of the data points for a symbol's standard dataset depend on its active sessions , and sessions vary across instrument types. For example, the daily session for NYSE stocks is 09:30 - 16:00 UTC-4/-5 on weekdays, Forex instruments have 24-hour sessions that span from 17:00 UTC-4/-5 on one weekday to 17:00 on the next, and new daily sessions for cryptocurrencies start at 00:00 UTC every day because crypto markets are consistently open.
Therefore, comparing the standard datasets for different asset types to identify correlations presents a challenge. If two symbols' datasets have bars that form at unaligned times, their correlation coefficient does not accurately describe their relationship. When calculating correlations between the returns for two assets, both datasets must maintain consistent time alignment in their values and cover identical ranges for meaningful results.
To address the issue of time alignment across instruments, this indicator requests confirmed weekly or monthly data from spread tickers constructed from the chart's ticker and another specified ticker. The datasets for spreads are derived from lower-timeframe data to ensure the values from all symbols come from aligned points in time, allowing a fair comparison between different instrument types. Additionally, each spread ticker ID includes necessary modifiers, such as extended hours and adjustments.
In this indicator, we use the following process to retrieve time-aligned returns for correlation calculations:
1. Request the current and previous prices from a spread representing the sum of the chart symbol and another symbol ( "chartSymbol + anotherSymbol" ).
2. Request the prices from another spread representing the difference between the two symbols ( "chartSymbol - anotherSymbol" ).
3. Calculate half of the difference between the values from both spreads ( 0.5 * (requestedSum - requestedDifference) ). The results represent the symbol's prices at times aligned with the sample points on the current chart.
4. Calculate the arithmetic return of the retrieved prices: (currentPrice - previousPrice) / previousPrice
5. Repeat steps 1-4 for each symbol requiring analysis.
It's crucial to note that because this process retrieves prices for a symbol at times consistent with periodic points on the current chart, the values can represent prices from before or after the closing time of the symbol's usual session.
Additionally, note that the maximum number of weeks or months in the correlation calculations depends on the chart's range and the largest time range common to all the requested symbols. To maximize the amount of data available for the calculations, we recommend setting the chart to use a daily or higher timeframe and specifying a chart symbol that covers a sufficient time range for your needs.
█ FEATURES
This indicator analyzes the correlations between several pairs of user-specified symbols to provide a structured, intuitive view of the relationships in their returns. Below are the indicator's key features:
Requesting a list of securities
The "Symbol list" text box in the indicator's "Settings/Inputs" tab accepts a comma-separated list of symbols or ticker identifiers with optional spaces (e.g., "XOM, MSFT, BITSTAMP:BTCUSD"). The indicator dynamically requests returns for each symbol in the list, then calculates the correlation between each pair of return series for its heatmap display.
Each item in the list must represent a valid symbol or ticker ID. If the list includes an invalid symbol, the script raises a runtime error.
To specify a broker/exchange for a symbol, include its name as a prefix with a colon in the "EXCHANGE:SYMBOL" format. If a symbol in the list does not specify an exchange prefix, the indicator selects the most commonly used exchange when requesting the data.
Note that the number of symbols allowed in the list depends on the user's plan. Users with non-professional plans can compare up to 20 symbols with this indicator, and users with professional plans can compare up to 32 symbols.
Timeframe and data length selection
The "Returns timeframe" input specifies whether the indicator uses weekly or monthly returns in its calculations. By default, its value is "1M", meaning the indicator analyzes monthly returns. Note that this script requires a chart timeframe lower than or equal to "1M". If the chart uses a higher timeframe, it causes a runtime error.
To customize the length of the data used in the correlation calculations, use the "Max periods" input. When enabled, the indicator limits the calculation window to the number of periods specified in the input field. Otherwise, it uses the chart's time range as the limit. The top-left corner of the table shows the number of confirmed weeks or months used in the calculations.
It's important to note that the number of confirmed periods in the correlation calculations is limited to the largest time range common to all the requested datasets, because a meaningful correlation matrix requires analyzing each symbol's returns under the same market conditions. Therefore, the correlation matrix can show different results for the same symbol pair if another listed symbol restricts the aligned data to a shorter time range.
Heatmap display
This indicator displays the correlations for each symbol pair in a heatmap-styled table representing a symmetric correlation matrix. Each row and column corresponds to a specific symbol, and the cells at their intersections correspond to symbol pairs . For example, the cell at the "AAPL" row and "MSFT" column shows the weekly or monthly correlation between those two symbols' returns. Likewise, the cell at the "MSFT" row and "AAPL" column shows the same value.
Note that the main diagonal cells in the display, where the row and column refer to the same symbol, all show a value of 1 because any series of non-na data is always perfectly correlated with itself.
The background of each correlation cell uses a gradient color based on the correlation value. By default, the gradient uses blue hues for positive correlation, orange hues for negative correlation, and white for no correlation. The intensity of each blue or orange hue corresponds to the strength of the measured correlation or anticorrelation. Users can customize the gradient's base colors using the inputs in the "Color gradient" section of the "Settings/Inputs" tab.
█ FOR Pine Script® CODERS
• This script uses the `getArrayFromString()` function from our ValueAtTime library to process the input list of symbols. The function splits the "string" value by its commas, then constructs an array of non-empty strings without leading or trailing whitespaces. Additionally, it uses the str.upper() function to convert each symbol's characters to uppercase.
• The script's `getAlignedReturns()` function requests time-aligned prices with two request.security() calls that use spread tickers based on the chart's symbol and another symbol. Then, it calculates the arithmetic return using the `changePercent()` function from the ta library. The `collectReturns()` function uses `getAlignedReturns()` within a loop and stores the data from each call within a matrix . The script calls the `arrayCorrelation()` function on pairs of rows from the returned matrix to calculate the correlation values.
• For consistency, the `getAlignedReturns()` 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.
• A Pine script can execute up to 40 or 64 unique `request.*()` function calls, depending on the user's plan. The maximum number of symbols this script compares is half the plan's limit, because `getAlignedReturns()` uses two request.security() calls.
• This script can use the request.security() function within a loop because all scripts in Pine v6 enable dynamic requests by default. Refer to the Dynamic requests section of the Other timeframes and data page to learn more about this feature, and see our v6 migration guide to learn what's new in Pine v6.
• The script's table uses two distinct color.from_gradient() calls in a switch structure to determine the cell colors for positive and negative correlation values. One call calculates the color for values from -1 to 0 based on the first and second input colors, and the other calculates the colors for values from 0 to 1 based on the second and third input colors.

Bitcoin Polynomial Regression ModelThis is the main version of the script. Click here for the Oscillator part of the script.
💡Why this model was created:
One of the key issues with most existing models, including our own Bitcoin Log Growth Curve Model , is that they often fail to realistically account for diminishing returns. As a result, they may present overly optimistic bull cycle targets (hence, we introduced alternative settings in our previous Bitcoin Log Growth Curve Model).
This new model however, has been built from the ground up with a primary focus on incorporating the principle of diminishing returns. It directly responds to this concept, which has been briefly explored here .
📉The theory of diminishing returns:
This theory suggests that as each four-year market cycle unfolds, volatility gradually decreases, leading to more tempered price movements. It also implies that the price increase from one cycle peak to the next will decrease over time as the asset matures. The same pattern applies to cycle lows and the relationship between tops and bottoms. In essence, these price movements are interconnected and should generally follow a consistent pattern. We believe this model provides a more realistic outlook on bull and bear market cycles.
To better understand this theory, the relationships between cycle tops and bottoms are outlined below:https://www.tradingview.com/x/7Hldzsf2/
🔧Creation of the model:
For those interested in how this model was created, the process is explained here. Otherwise, feel free to skip this section.
This model is based on two separate cubic polynomial regression lines. One for the top price trend and another for the bottom. Both follow the general cubic polynomial function:
ax^3 +bx^2 + cx + d.
In this equation, x represents the weekly bar index minus an offset, while a, b, c, and d are determined through polynomial regression analysis. The input (x, y) values used for the polynomial regression analysis are as follows:
Top regression line (x, y) values:
113, 18.6
240, 1004
451, 19128
655, 65502
Bottom regression line (x, y) values:
103, 2.5
267, 211
471, 3193
676, 16255
The values above correspond to historical Bitcoin cycle tops and bottoms, where x is the weekly bar index and y is the weekly closing price of Bitcoin. The best fit is determined using metrics such as R-squared values, residual error analysis, and visual inspection. While the exact details of this evaluation are beyond the scope of this post, the following optimal parameters were found:
Top regression line parameter values:
a: 0.000202798
b: 0.0872922
c: -30.88805
d: 1827.14113
Bottom regression line parameter values:
a: 0.000138314
b: -0.0768236
c: 13.90555
d: -765.8892
📊Polynomial Regression Oscillator:
This publication also includes the oscillator version of the this model which is displayed at the bottom of the screen. The oscillator applies a logarithmic transformation to the price and the regression lines using the formula log10(x) .
The log-transformed price is then normalized using min-max normalization relative to the log-transformed top and bottom regression line with the formula:
normalized price = log(close) - log(bottom regression line) / log(top regression line) - log(bottom regression line)
This transformation results in a price value between 0 and 1 between both the regression lines. The Oscillator version can be found here.
🔍Interpretation of the Model:
In general, the red area represents a caution zone, as historically, the price has often been near its cycle market top within this range. On the other hand, the green area is considered an area of opportunity, as historically, it has corresponded to the market bottom.
The top regression line serves as a signal for the absolute market cycle peak, while the bottom regression line indicates the absolute market cycle bottom.
Additionally, this model provides a predicted range for Bitcoin's future price movements, which can be used to make extrapolated predictions. We will explore this further below.
🔮Future Predictions:
Finally, let's discuss what this model actually predicts for the potential upcoming market cycle top and the corresponding market cycle bottom. In our previous post here , a cycle interval analysis was performed to predict a likely time window for the next cycle top and bottom:
In the image, it is predicted that the next top-to-top cycle interval will be 208 weeks, which translates to November 3rd, 2025. It is also predicted that the bottom-to-top cycle interval will be 152 weeks, which corresponds to October 13th, 2025. On the macro level, these two dates align quite well. For our prediction, we take the average of these two dates: October 24th 2025. This will be our target date for the bull cycle top.
Now, let's do the same for the upcoming cycle bottom. The bottom-to-bottom cycle interval is predicted to be 205 weeks, which translates to October 19th, 2026, and the top-to-bottom cycle interval is predicted to be 259 weeks, which corresponds to October 26th, 2026. We then take the average of these two dates, predicting a bear cycle bottom date target of October 19th, 2026.
Now that we have our predicted top and bottom cycle date targets, we can simply reference these two dates to our model, giving us the Bitcoin top price prediction in the range of 152,000 in Q4 2025 and a subsequent bottom price prediction in the range of 46,500 in Q4 2026.
For those interested in understanding what this specifically means for the predicted diminishing return top and bottom cycle values, the image below displays these predicted values. The new values are highlighted in yellow:
And of course, keep in mind that these targets are just rough estimates. While we've done our best to estimate these targets through a data-driven approach, markets will always remain unpredictable in nature. What are your targets? Feel free to share them in the comment section below.

Super Cycle Low FinderHow the Indicator Works
1. Inputs
Users can adjust the cycle lengths:
Daily Cycle: Default is 40 days (within 36-44 days).
Weekly Cycle: Default is 26 weeks (182 days, within 22-31 weeks).
Yearly Cycle: Default is 4 years (1460 days).
2. Cycle Low Detection
Function: detect_cycle_low finds the lowest low over the specified period and confirms it with a bullish candle (close > open).
Timeframes: Daily lows are calculated directly; weekly and yearly lows use request.security to fetch data from higher timeframes.
3. Half Cycle Lows
Detected over half the cycle length, plotted to show mid-cycle strength or weakness.
4. Cycle Translation
Logic: Compares the position of the highest high to the cycle’s midpoint.
Output: "R" for right translated (bullish), "L" for left translated (bearish), displayed above bars.
5. Cycle Failure
Flags when a new low falls below the previous cycle low, indicating a breakdown.
6. Visualization
Cycle Lows: Diamonds below bars (yellow for daily, green for weekly, blue for yearly).
Half Cycle Lows: Circles below bars (orange, lime, aqua).
Translations: "R" or "L" above bars in distinct colors.
Failures: Downward triangles below bars (red, orange, purple).
TimeMapTimeMap is a visual price-reference indicator designed to help traders rapidly visualize how current price levels relate to significant historical closing prices. It overlays your chart with reference lines representing past weekly, monthly, quarterly (3-month), semi-annual (6-month), and annual closing prices. By clearly plotting these historical price references, TimeMap helps traders quickly gauge price position relative to historical market structure, aiding in the identification of trends, support/resistance levels, and potential reversals.
How it Works:
The indicator calculates the precise number of historical bars corresponding to weekly, monthly, quarterly, semi-annual, and annual intervals, dynamically adjusting according to your chart’s timeframe (intraday, daily, weekly, monthly) and chosen market type (Stocks US, Crypto, Forex, or Futures). Historical closing prices from these periods are plotted directly on your chart as horizontal reference lines.
For intraday traders, the script accurately calculates historical offsets considering regular and extended trading sessions (e.g., pre-market and after-hours sessions for US stocks), ensuring correct positioning of historical lines.
User-Configurable Inputs Explained in Detail:
Market Type:
Allows you to specify your trading instrument type, automatically adjusting calculations for:
- Stocks US (default): 390 minutes per regular session (780 minutes if extended hours enabled), 5 trading days/week.
- Crypto: 1440 minutes/day, 7 trading days/week.
- Forex: 1440 minutes/day, 5 trading days/week.
- Futures: 1320 minutes/day, 5 trading days/week.
Show Weekly Close:
When enabled, plots a line at the exact closing price from one week ago. Provides short-term context and helps identify recent price momentum.
Show Monthly Close:
When enabled, plots a line at the exact closing price from one month ago. Helpful for evaluating medium-term price positioning and monthly trend strength.
Show 3-Month Close:
When enabled, plots a line at the exact closing price from three months ago. Useful for assessing quarterly market shifts, intermediate trend changes, and broader market sentiment.
Show 6-Month Close:
When enabled, plots a line at the exact closing price from six months ago. Useful for identifying semi-annual trends, significant price pivots, and longer-term support/resistance levels.
Show 1-Year Close:
When enabled, plots a line at the exact closing price from one year ago. Excellent for assessing long-term market direction and key annual price levels.
Enable Smoothing:
Activates a Simple Moving Average (SMA) smoothing of historical reference lines, reducing volatility and providing clearer visual references. Recommended for traders preferring less volatile reference levels.
Smoothing Length:
Determines the number of bars used in calculating the SMA smoothing of historical lines. Higher values result in smoother but slightly delayed reference lines; lower values offer more immediate yet more volatile levels.
Use Extended Hours (Intraday Only):
When enabled (only applicable for Stocks US), it accounts for pre-market and after-hours trading sessions, providing accurate intraday historical line calculations based on extended sessions (typically 780 minutes/day total).
Important Notes and Compliance:
- This indicator does not provide trading signals, recommendations, or predictions. It serves purely as a visual analytical tool to supplement traders’ existing methods.
- Historical lines plotted are strictly based on past available price data; the indicator never accesses future data or data outside the scope of Pine Script’s standard capabilities.
- The script incorporates built-in logic to avoid runtime errors if insufficient historical data exists for a selected timeframe, ensuring robustness even with limited historical bars.
- TimeMap is original work developed exclusively by Julien Eche (@Julien_Eche). It does not reuse or replicate third-party or existing open-source scripts.
Recommended Best Practices:
- Use TimeMap as a complementary analytical reference, not as a standalone strategy or trade decision-making tool.
- Adapt displayed historical periods and smoothing settings based on your trading style and market approach.
- Default plot colors are optimized for readability on dark-background charts; adjust as necessary according to your preference and chart color scheme.

True Open CalculationsIndicator Description: True Open Calculations
This custom Pine Script indicator calculates and plots key "True Open" levels based on specific time intervals and trading sessions. The True Open levels represent significant price points on the chart, helping traders identify key reference points tied to various market opening times. These levels are important for understanding price action in relation to market sessions and trading cycles. The indicator is designed to plot lines corresponding to different "True Opens" on the chart and display labels with the associated information.
Key Features:
True Year Open:
This represents the opening price on the first Monday of April each year. It serves as a reference point for the yearly price level.
Plot Color: Green.
True Month Open:
This represents the opening price on the second Monday of each month. It helps in identifying monthly trends and provides a key reference for monthly price movements.
Plot Color: Blue.
True Week Open:
This represents the opening price every Monday at 6:00 PM. It gives traders a level to track weekly opening movements and can be useful for weekly trend analysis.
Plot Color: Orange.
True Day Open:
This represents the opening price at 12:00 AM (midnight) each day. It serves as a daily benchmark for price action at the start of the trading day.
Plot Color: Red.
True New York Session Open:
This represents the opening price at 7:30 AM (New York session start time). This level is crucial for traders focused on the New York trading session.
Plot Color: Purple.
Additional Features:
Labels: The indicator displays labels to the right of each plotted line to describe which "True Open" it represents (e.g., "True Year Open," "True Month Open," etc.).
Dynamic Plotting: The lines are only plotted on the current candle, and the lines are dynamically updated for each time period based on the corresponding "True Open."
Visual Cues: The colors of the plotted lines (green, blue, orange, red, purple) help quickly distinguish between different "True Open" levels, making it easy for traders to track price action and make informed decisions.
Use Cases:
Yearly, Monthly, Weekly, Daily, and Session Benchmarking: This indicator provides traders with important price levels to use as benchmarks for the current year, month, week, and day, helping to identify trends and potential reversals.
Session Awareness: It is particularly useful for traders who want to track key market sessions, such as the New York session, and their impact on price movement.
Long-term Analysis: By including the yearly open, this indicator helps traders gain a broader perspective on market trends and provides context for analyzing shorter-term price movements.
Benefits:
Helps identify important reference points for longer-term trends (yearly, monthly) as well as shorter-term moves (daily, weekly, and session).
Visually intuitive with color-coded lines and labels, allowing quick and easy identification of key market open levels.
Dynamic and real-time: The indicator plots and updates the True Open levels dynamically as the market progresses.

Let me know if you need further assistance or additional features!
JL - DWM OHLCThis indicator plots the following price levels on your chart automatically AND will not show up if you are using a timeframe bigger than 60 minutes, 1 day, or 1 week.
Here are the price levels that are automatically plotted for you, and so you know the styling is different for Daily, Weekly, Monthly levels so you can easily distinguish between them:
- Prior Day: High / Low / Close
- Current Day: Open
- Prior Week: High / Low / Close
- Current Week: Open
- Prior Month: High / Low / Close
- Current Month: Open
These plots are timeframe dependent and will not plot on subsequently higher timeframes, here is how they work:
Daily Price Levels are only shown on timeframes that are smaller than 60 minutes.
Weekly Price Levels are only shown on timeframes smaller than 1 Day.
Monthly Price Levels are only shown on timeframes smaller than 1 Week.
This way, you can turn on the indicator and not have to think about turning off certain price levels if you switch to a larger / longer timeframe than what you typically use.
For example, Daily OHLC price levels will quickly clutter the 60 minute chart, and likely you don't need to know the HLC of the Prior Day if you are looking at the 60 minute chart. Therefor it may be helpful to automatically hide the Daily price level plots, and only show the Weekly and Monthly plots on the 60 minute timeframe.
I hope you find this indicator helpful, thanks for reading.

🔵 For Swing Trading & LEAPS (Weekly Chart Setup - Default Settings)
• Slower MAs provide a broader view of trend structure.
• Helps capture multi-week trend shifts and confirm entry points for longer-term trades.
• Weekly ATR bands highlight when stocks are entering overextended conditions.
💡 Example:
Let’s say you’re looking at TSLA on a Weekly Chart using the default settings. You notice that price crosses above the continuation MA (SSL2) while remaining above the baseline (trend power MA). The bar turns green, and price breaks above ATR resistance, signaling a strong bullish continuation. This could be a great opportunity to enter a long-term swing trade or LEAPS options position.
On the flip side, if price reverses below the Exit MA (SSL3) and turns red while breaking the lower ATR band, it might signal a good time to exit longs or enter a short trade.

Quarterly Theory ICT 02 [TradingFinder] True Open Session 90 Min🔵 Introduction
The Quarterly Theory ICT indicator is an advanced analytical system built on ICT (Inner Circle Trader) concepts and fractal time. It divides time into four quarters (Q1, Q2, Q3, Q4), and is designed based on the consistent repetition of these phases across all trading timeframes (annual, monthly, weekly, daily, and even shorter trading sessions).
Each cycle consists of four distinct phases: the first phase (Q1) is the Accumulation phase, characterized by price consolidation; the second phase (Q2), known as Manipulation or Judas Swing, is marked by initial false movements indicating a potential shift; the third phase (Q3) is Distribution, where price volatility peaks; and the fourth phase (Q4) is Continuation/Reversal, determining whether the previous trend continues or reverses.
🔵 How to Use
The central concept of this strategy is the "True Open," which refers to the actual starting point of each time cycle. The True Open is typically defined at the beginning of the second phase (Q2) of each cycle. Prices trading above or below the True Open serve as a benchmark for predicting the market's potential direction and guiding trading decisions.
The practical application of the Quarterly Theory strategy relies on accurately identifying True Open points across various timeframes.
True Open points are defined as follows :
Yearly Cycle :
Q1: January, February, March
Q2: April, May, June (True Open: April Monthly Open)
Q3: July, August, September
Q4: October, November, December
Monthly Cycle :
Q1: First Monday of the month
Q2: Second Monday of the month (True Open: Daily Candle Open price on the second Monday)
Q3: Third Monday of the month
Q4: Fourth Monday of the month
Weekly Cycle :
Q1: Monday
Q2: Tuesday (True Open: Daily Candle Open Price on Tuesday)
Q3: Wednesday
Q4: Thursday
Daily Cycle :
Q1: 18:00 - 00:00 (Asian session)
Q2: 00:00 - 06:00 (True Open: Start of London Session)
Q3: 06:00 - 12:00 (NY AM)
Q4: 12:00 - 18:00 (NY PM)
90 Min Asian Session :
Q1: 18:00 - 19:30
Q2: 19:30 - 21:00 (True Open at 19:30)
Q3: 21:00 - 22:30
Q4: 22:30 - 00:00
90 Min London Session :
Q1: 00:00 - 01:30
Q2: 01:30 - 03:00 (True Open at 01:30)
Q3: 03:00 - 04:30
Q4: 04:30 - 06:00
90 Min New York AM Session :
Q1: 06:00 - 07:30
Q2: 07:30 - 09:00 (True Open at 07:30)
Q3: 09:00 - 10:30
Q4: 10:30 - 12:00
90 Min New York PM Session :
Q1: 12:00 - 13:30
Q2: 13:30 - 15:00 (True Open at 13:30)
Q3: 15:00 - 16:30
Q4: 16:30 - 18:00
Micro Cycle (22.5-Minute Quarters) : Each 90-minute quarter is further divided into four 22.5-minute sub-segments (Micro Sessions).
True Opens in these sessions are defined as follows :
Asian Micro Session :
True Session Open : 19:30 - 19:52:30
London Micro Session :
T rue Session Open : 01:30 - 01:52:30
New York AM Micro Session :
True Session Open : 07:30 - 07:52:30
New York PM Micro Session :
True Session Open : 13:30 - 13:52:30
By accurately identifying these True Open points across various timeframes, traders can effectively forecast the market direction, analyze price movements in detail, and optimize their trading positions. Prices trading above or below these key levels serve as critical benchmarks for determining market direction and making informed trading decisions.
🔵 Setting
Show True Range : Enable or disable the display of the True Range on the chart, including the option to customize the color.
Extend True Range Line : Choose how to extend the True Range line on the chart, with the following options:
None: No line extension
Right: Extend the line to the right
Left: Extend the line to the left
Both: Extend the line in both directions (left and right)
Show Table : Determines whether the table—which summarizes the phases (Q1 to Q4)—is displayed.
Show More Info : Adds additional details to the table, such as the name of the phase (Accumulation, Manipulation, Distribution, or Continuation/Reversal) or further specifics about each cycle.
🔵 Conclusion
The Quarterly Theory ICT, by dividing time into four distinct quarters (Q1, Q2, Q3, and Q4) and emphasizing the concept of the True Open, provides a structured and repeatable framework for analyzing price action across multiple time frames.
The consistent repetition of phases—Accumulation, Manipulation (Judas Swing), Distribution, and Continuation/Reversal—allows traders to effectively identify recurring price patterns and critical market turning points. Utilizing the True Open as a benchmark, traders can more accurately determine potential directional bias, optimize trade entries and exits, and manage risk effectively.
By incorporating principles of ICT (Inner Circle Trader) and fractal time, this strategy enhances market forecasting accuracy across annual, monthly, weekly, daily, and shorter trading sessions. This systematic approach helps traders gain deeper insight into market structure and confidently execute informed trading decisions.
Opening Price Deviations with AlertsOverview
The Timeframe Opening Price Deviations indicator helps traders visualize how price deviates from a key reference point—the opening price of a selected timeframe (Daily, Weekly, or Monthly). It calculates upper and lower deviation levels based on a percentage step and plots these levels on the chart. This can help traders identify potential areas of support and resistance.
----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
How It Works
Opening Price Reference:
The script retrieves the opening price of the selected timeframe (Daily, Weekly, or Monthly).
Deviation Levels Calculation:
Five upper and lower deviation levels are calculated based on a percentage step input by the user.
Each level is determined by multiplying the opening price by (1 ± step size).
Visualization
The indicator plots the calculated levels as horizontal lines above and below the opening price.
Labels appear only on the latest bar, displaying the exact price level along with its percentage deviation from the opening price.
User has the option to turn on/off or change the bar colours. If price is within the 1st deviation lines that's considered neutral coloured orange as default. If price is above/below the first deviation levels the bar colours will be green or red.
---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Potential Use Cases
Support & Resistance Zones 🟢🔴
The deviation levels can act as potential areas where price may reverse or consolidate based on historical price behaviour.
Breakout & Reversion Strategies 📈📉
If price breaks above an upper deviation level, it could indicate momentum continuation.
If price rejects from a level, it might suggest a mean reversion opportunity.
Trend Strength Analysis 🔍
The distance between the price and deviation levels can help traders assess whether a trend is strong (moving away from the opening price) or weak (hovering near the opening price).
Intraday vs. Multi-Timeframe Perspective 🕒
By selecting different timeframes (Daily, Weekly, Monthly), traders can align intraday price movements with higher timeframe reference points for added confluence.
---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Customization Options
Timeframe Selection: Choose between Daily, Weekly, or Monthly opening prices.
Deviation Step (%): Adjust the step size to control the spacing between deviation levels.
Colour Bars: User Is able to change the colour of the bars.
---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Alerts
This Indicator also has alerts for when price crosses above/below a deviation line. It will tell you the ticker, price and time
---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Final Notes
This indicator is purely for technical analysis and should not be used as a standalone trading system. It works best when combined with price action, volume analysis, or other indicators of you're choosing to refine trade decisions.
Happy Trading! 🚀📊

Quarterly Theory ICT 01 [TradingFinder] XAMD + Q1-Q4 Sessions🔵 Introduction
The Quarterly Theory ICT indicator is an advanced analytical system based on the concepts of ICT (Inner Circle Trader) and fractal time. It divides time into quarterly periods and accurately determines entry and exit points for trades by using the True Open as the starting point of each cycle. This system is applicable across various time frames including annual, monthly, weekly, daily, and even 90-minute sessions.
Time is divided into four quarters: in the first quarter (Q1), which is dedicated to the Accumulation phase, the market is in a consolidation state, laying the groundwork for a new trend; in the second quarter (Q2), allocated to the Manipulation phase (also known as Judas Swing), sudden price changes and false moves occur, marking the true starting point of a trend change; the third quarter (Q3) is dedicated to the Distribution phase, during which prices are broadly distributed and price volatility peaks; and the fourth quarter (Q4), corresponding to the Continuation/Reversal phase, either continues or reverses the previous trend.
By leveraging smart algorithms and technical analysis, this system identifies optimal price patterns and trading positions through the precise detection of stop-run and liquidity zones.
With the division of time into Q1 through Q4 and by incorporating key terms such as Quarterly Theory ICT, True Open, Accumulation, Manipulation (Judas Swing), Distribution, Continuation/Reversal, ICT, fractal time, smart algorithms, technical analysis, price patterns, trading positions, stop-run, and liquidity, this system enables traders to identify market trends and make informed trading decisions using real data and precise analysis.
♦ Important Note :
This indicator and the "Quarterly Theory ICT" concept have been developed based on material published in primary sources, notably the articles on Daye( traderdaye ) and Joshuuu . All copyright rights are reserved.
🔵 How to Use
The Quarterly Theory ICT strategy is built on dividing time into four distinct periods across various time frames such as annual, monthly, weekly, daily, and even 90-minute sessions. In this approach, time is segmented into four quarters, during which the phases of Accumulation, Manipulation (Judas Swing), Distribution, and Continuation/Reversal appear in a systematic and recurring manner.
The first segment (Q1) functions as the Accumulation phase, where the market consolidates and lays the foundation for future movement; the second segment (Q2) represents the Manipulation phase, during which prices experience sudden initial changes, and with the aid of the True Open concept, the real starting point of the market’s movement is determined; in the third segment (Q3), the Distribution phase takes place, where prices are widely dispersed and price volatility reaches its peak; and finally, the fourth segment (Q4) is recognized as the Continuation/Reversal phase, in which the previous trend either continues or reverses.
This strategy, by harnessing the concepts of fractal time and smart algorithms, enables precise analysis of price patterns across multiple time frames and, through the identification of key points such as stop-run and liquidity zones, assists traders in optimizing their trading positions. Utilizing real market data and dividing time into Q1 through Q4 allows for a comprehensive and multi-level technical analysis in which optimal entry and exit points are identified by comparing prices to the True Open.
Thus, by focusing on keywords like Quarterly Theory ICT, True Open, Accumulation, Manipulation, Distribution, Continuation/Reversal, ICT, fractal time, smart algorithms, technical analysis, price patterns, trading positions, stop-run, and liquidity, the Quarterly Theory ICT strategy acts as a coherent framework for predicting market trends and developing trading strategies.

Show More Info: Adds additional details to the table, such as the name of the phase (Accumulation, Manipulation, Distribution, or Continuation/Reversal) or further specifics about each cycle.
🔵 Conclusion
Quarterly Theory ICT provides a fractal and recurring approach to analyzing price behavior by dividing time into four quarters (Q1, Q2, Q3, and Q4) and defining the True Open at the beginning of the second phase.
The Accumulation, Manipulation (Judas Swing), Distribution, and Continuation/Reversal phases repeat in each cycle, allowing traders to identify price patterns with greater precision across annual, monthly, weekly, daily, and even micro-level time frames.
Focusing on the True Open as the primary reference point enables faster recognition of potential trend changes and facilitates optimal management of trading positions. In summary, this strategy, based on ICT principles and fractal time concepts, offers a powerful framework for predicting future market movements, identifying optimal entry and exit points, and managing risk in various trading conditions.
TrendPredator FOTrendPredator Fakeout Highlighter (FO)
The TrendPredator Fakeout Highlighter is designed to enhance multi-timeframe trend analysis by identifying key market behaviors that indicate trend strength, weakness, and potential reversals. Inspired by Stacey Burke’s trading approach, this tool focuses on trend-following, momentum shifts, and trader traps, helping traders capitalize on high-probability setups.
At its core, this indicator highlights peak formations—anchor points where price often locks in trapped traders before making decisive moves. These principles align with George Douglas Taylor’s 3-day cycle and Steve Mauro’s BTMM method, making the FO Highlighter a powerful tool for reading market structure. As markets are fractal, this analysis works on any timeframe.
How It Works
The TrendPredator FO highlights key price action signals by coloring candles based on their bias state on the current timeframe.
It tracks four major elements:
Breakout/Breakdown Bars – Did the candle close in a breakout or breakdown relative to the last candle?
Fakeout Bars (Trend Close) – Did the candle break a prior high/low and close back inside, but still in line with the trend?
Fakeout Bars (Counter-Trend Close) – Did the candle break a prior high/low, close back inside, and against the trend?
Switch Bars – Did the candle lose/ reclaim the breakout/down level of the last bar that closed in breakout/down, signalling a possible trend shift?
Reading the Trend with TrendPredator FO
The annotations in this example are added manually for illustration.
- Breakouts → Strong Trend
Multiple candles closing in breakout signal a healthy and strong trend.
- Fakeouts (Trend Close) → First Signs of Weakness
Candles that break out but close back inside suggest a potential slowdown—especially near key levels.
- Fakeouts (Counter-Trend Close) → Stronger Reversal Signal
Closing against the trend strengthens the reversal signal.
- Switch Bars → Momentum Shift
A shift in trend is confirmed when price crosses back through the last closed breakout candles breakout level, trapping traders and fuelling a move in the opposite direction.
- Breakdowns → Trend Reversal Confirmed
Once price breaks away from the peak formation, closing in breakdown, the trend shift is validated.
Customization & Settings
- Toggle individual candle types on/off
- Customize colors for each signal
- Set the number of historical candles displayed
Example Use Cases
1. Weekly Template Analysis
The weekly template is a core concept in Stacey Burke’s trading style. FO highlights individual candle states. With this the state of the trend and the developing weekly template can be evaluated precisely. The analysis is done on the daily timeframe and we are looking especially for overextended situations within a week, after multiple breakouts and for peak formations signalling potential reversals. This is helpful for thesis generation before a session and also for backtesting. The annotations in this example are added manually for illustration.
📈 Example: Weekly Template Analysis snapshot on daily timeframe
2. High Timeframe 5-Star Setup Analysis (Stacey Burke "ain't coming back" ACB Template)
This analysis identifies high-probability trade opportunities when daily breakout or down closes occur near key monthly levels mid-week, signalling overextensions and potentially large parabolic moves. Key signals for this are breakout or down closes occurring on a Wednesday. This is helpful for thesis generation before a session and also for backtesting. The annotations in this example are added manually for illustration. Also an indicator can bee seen on this chart shading every Wednesday to identify the signal.
📉 Example: High Timeframe Setup snapshot
3. Low Timeframe Entry Confirmation
FO helps confirm entry signals after a setup is identified, allowing traders to time their entries and exits more precisely. For this the highlighted Switch and/ or Fakeout bars can be highly valuable.

Anchored Powered KAMA [LuxAlgo]The Anchored Powered KAMA tool is a new flavor of the famous Kaufman's Adaptive Moving Average (KAMA).
It adds 5 different anchoring periods, a power exponent to the original KAMA calculation to increase the degree of filtering during ranging trends, and standard deviation bands calculated against the KAMA itself.
🔶 USAGE
In the image above we can see the different parts of the tool, it displays the Anchored Powered KAMA surrounded by standard deviation bands at 2x (solid) and 1x (dashed) by default.
This tool provides a simple and easy way to determine if the current market is ranging or trending and where the market extremes are in the current period.
As a rule of thumb, traders may want to trade extremes in ranges and pullbacks in trends.
When the KAMA is flat, a range is in place, so traders may want to wait for the price to reach an extreme before opening a trade in the other direction.
Conversely, if the KAMA is moving up or down, a trend is in place and traders may want to wait for the price to pull back to the KAMA before opening a trade in the direction of the trend.
🔹 Anchor Period
On the above chart, we can see different anchor periods on different chart timeframes.
This option is very useful for those traders who use multi-timeframe analysis, allowing them to see how the market behaves over different timeframes.
The valid values for this parameter are:
Hourly
Daily
Weekly
Monthly
Yearly
The tool has a built-in Auto feature for traders convenience, it automatically selects the optimal Anchor Period in function of the chart timeframe.
timeframes up to 2m: Hourly
timeframes up to 15m: Daily
timeframes up to 1H: Weekly
timeframes up to 4H: Monthly
larger timeframes: Yearly
🔹 Choosing the Right Anchor Period
In the chart above we can see the custom error message that the tool displays when the Auto feature is disabled and the Anchor Period is too large for the current chart timeframe.
Traders can select a smaller Anchor Period or a larger chart timeframe for the tool to display correctly.
🔶 DETAILS
The tool uses Welford's algorithm to calculate the KAMA's standard deviation, then plots the outer bands at the multiplier specified in the settings panel, and the inner bands at the multiplier specified minus 1.
🔹 Power Exponent
The graph above shows how different values of this parameter can affect the output.
To display the original KAMA a value of 1 must be set, by default this parameter is set to 2.
The higher the value, the better the tool's ability to detect ranges.
🔶 SETTINGS
Anchor Period: Select up to 5 different time periods from Hourly, Daily, Weekly, Monthly, and Yearly.
Source: Choose the source for all calculations.
Power Exponent: Fine-tune the KAMA calculation, a value of 1 will output the original KAMA, and is set to 2 by default.
Band Multiplier: Select the multiplier for the standard deviation bands.

CandelaCharts - Liquidity Key Zones (LKZ)📝 Overview
The Liquidity Key Zones indicator displays the previous high and low levels for daily, weekly, monthly, quarterly, and yearly timeframes. These levels serve as crucial price zones for trading any market or instrument. They are also high-probability reaction zones, ideal for trading using straightforward confirmation patterns.
Each of these levels plays a significant role in determining whether the market continues its momentum or reverses its bias. I like to think of these levels as dual magnets—they simultaneously attract and repel price. You might wonder how having opposing views can be useful. The key is to remain neutral about direction and establish your own rules to identify when these zones are likely to attract or repel price. I have my own set of rules, and you can develop yours.

📒 Usage
When the price breaks through a significant level, such as a daily, weekly, or monthly high or low, it often signals a potential reversal in market direction. This occurs because these levels represent key areas of support or resistance, where traders anticipate heightened activity, including profit-taking, stop-loss orders, or new positions being initiated.
Once the price breaches these levels, it may trigger a sharp reaction as market participants adjust their strategies, leading to a reversal. Monitoring price action and volume around these levels can provide valuable confirmation of such reversals.
Another effective approach to utilizing these pivot points is by incorporating them into a structured trading strategy, such as the X Model, which leverages multiple timeframes and technical tools to refine trade entries and exits.
X Model conditions:
(D1) Previous Day High (ERL)
(H1) Bullish FVG/IFVG/OB (IRL)
(m15) MSS / SMT
Only Short Above 00:00
By combining these elements, the X Model offers a comprehensive framework for leveraging pivot levels effectively, emphasizing confluence between liquidity zones, time-based rules, and multi-timeframe analysis to enhance trading accuracy and consistency.
