AWR R & LR Oscillator with plots & tableHello trading viewers !
I'm glad to share with you one of my favorite indicator. It's the aggregate of many things. It is partly based on an indicator designed by gentleman goat. Many thanks to him.
1. Oscillator and Correlation Calculations
Overview and Functionality: This part of the indicator computes up to 10 Pearson correlation coefficients between a chosen source (typically the close price, though this is user-configurable) and the bar index over various periods. Starting with an initial period defined by the startPeriod parameter and increasing by a set increment (periodIncrement), each correlation coefficient is calculated using the built-in ta.correlation function over successive ranges. These coefficients are stored in an array, and the indicator calculates their average (avgPR) to provide a complete view of the market trend strength.
Display Features: Each individual coefficient, as well as the overall average, is plotted on the chart using a specific color. Horizontal lines (both dashed and solid) are drawn at levels 0, ±0.8, and ±1, serving as visual thresholds. Additionally, conditional fills in red or blue highlight when values exceed these thresholds, helping the user quickly identify potential extreme conditions (such as overbought or oversold situations).
2. Visual Signals and Automated Alerts
Graphical Signal Enhancements: To reinforce the analysis, the indicator uses graphical elements like emojis and shape markers. For example:
If all 10 curves drop below -0.79, a 🌋 emoji appears at the bottom of the chart;
When curves 2 through 10 are below -0.79, a ⛰️ emoji is displayed below the bar, potentially serving as a buy signal accompanied by an alert condition;
Likewise, symmetrical conditions for correlations exceeding 0.79 produce corresponding emojis (🤿 and 🏖️) at the top or bottom of the chart.
Alerts and Notifications: Using these visual triggers, several alertcondition statements are defined within the script. This allows users to set up TradingView alerts and receive real-time notifications whenever the market reaches these predefined critical zones identified by the multi-period analysis.
3. Regression Channel Analysis
Principles and Calculations: In addition to the oscillator, the indicator implements an analysis of regression channels. For each of the 8 configurable channels, the user can set a range of periods (for example, min1 to max1, etc.). The function calc_regression_channel iterates through the defined period range to find the optimal period that maximizes a statistical measure derived from a regression parameter calculated by the function r(p). Once this optimal period is identified, the indicator computes two key points (A and B) which define the main regression line, and then creates a channel based on the calculated deviation (an RMSE multiplied by a user-defined factor).
The regression channels are not displayed on the chart but are used to plot shapes & fullfilled a table.
Blue shapes are plotted when 6th channel or 7th channel are lower than 3 deviations
Yellow shapes are plotted when 6th channel or 7th channel are higher than 3 deviations
4. Scores, Conditions, and the Summary Table
Scoring System: The indicator goes further by assigning scores across multiple analytical categories, such as:
1. BigPear Score
What It Represents: This score is based on a longer-term moving average of the Pearson correlation values (SMA 100 of the average of the 10 curves of correlation of Pearson). The BigPear category is designed to capture where this longer-term average falls within specific ranges.
Conditions: The script defines nine boolean conditions (labeled BigPear1up through BigPear9up for the “up” direction).
Here's the rules :
BigPear1up = (bigsma_avgPR <= 0.5 and bigsma_avgPR > 0.25)
BigPear2up = (bigsma_avgPR <= 0.25 and bigsma_avgPR > 0)
BigPear3up = (bigsma_avgPR <= 0 and bigsma_avgPR > -0.25)
BigPear4up = (bigsma_avgPR <= -0.25 and bigsma_avgPR > -0.5)
BigPear5up = (bigsma_avgPR <= -0.5 and bigsma_avgPR > -0.65)
BigPear6up = (bigsma_avgPR <= -0.65 and bigsma_avgPR > -0.7)
BigPear7up = (bigsma_avgPR <= -0.7 and bigsma_avgPR > -0.75)
BigPear8up = (bigsma_avgPR <= -0.75 and bigsma_avgPR > -0.8)
BigPear9up = (bigsma_avgPR <= -0.8)
Conditions: The script defines nine boolean conditions (labeled BigPear1down through BigPear9down for the “down” direction).
BigPear1down = (bigsma_avgPR >= -0.5 and bigsma_avgPR < -0.25)
BigPear2down = (bigsma_avgPR >= -0.25 and bigsma_avgPR < 0)
BigPear3down = (bigsma_avgPR >= 0 and bigsma_avgPR < 0.25)
BigPear4down = (bigsma_avgPR >= 0.25 and bigsma_avgPR < 0.5)
BigPear5down = (bigsma_avgPR >= 0.5 and bigsma_avgPR < 0.65)
BigPear6down = (bigsma_avgPR >= 0.65 and bigsma_avgPR < 0.7)
BigPear7down = (bigsma_avgPR >= 0.7 and bigsma_avgPR < 0.75)
BigPear8down = (bigsma_avgPR >= 0.75 and bigsma_avgPR < 0.8)
BigPear9down = (bigsma_avgPR >= 0.8)
Weighting:
If BigPear1up is true, 1 point is added; if BigPear2up is true, 2 points are added; and so on up to 9 points from BigPear9up.
Total Score:
The positive score (posScoreBigPear) is the sum of these weighted conditions.
Similarly, there is a negative score (negScoreBigPear) that is calculated using a mirrored set of conditions (named BigPear1down to BigPear9down), each contributing a negative weight (from -1 to -9).
In essence, the BigPear score tells you—in a weighted cumulative way—where the longer-term correlation average falls relative to predefined thresholds.
2. Pear Score
What It Represents: This category uses the immediate average of the Pearson correlations (avgPR) rather than a longer-term smoothed version. It reflects a more current picture of the market’s correlation behavior.
How It’s Calculated:
Conditions: There are nine conditions defined for the “up” scenario (named Pear1up through Pear9up), which partition the range of avgPR into intervals. For instance:
Pear1up = (avgPR > -0.2 and avgPR <= 0)
Pear2up = (avgPR > -0.4 and avgPR <= -0.2)
Pear3up = (avgPR > -0.5 and avgPR <= -0.4)
Pear4up = (avgPR > -0.6 and avgPR <= -0.5)
Pear5up = (avgPR > -0.65 and avgPR <= -0.6)
Pear6up = (avgPR > -0.7 and avgPR <= -0.65)
Pear7up = (avgPR > -0.75 and avgPR <= -0.7)
Pear8up = (avgPR > -0.8 and avgPR <= -0.75)
Pear9up = (avgPR > -1 and avgPR <= -0.8)
There are nine conditions defined for the “down” scenario (named Pear1down through Pear9down), which partition the range of avgPR into intervals. For instance:
Pear1down = (avgPR >= 0 and avgPR < 0.2)
Pear2down = (avgPR >= 0.2 and avgPR < 0.4)
Pear3down = (avgPR >= 0.4 and avgPR < 0.5)
Pear4down = (avgPR >= 0.5 and avgPR < 0.6)
Pear5down = (avgPR >= 0.6 and avgPR < 0.65)
Pear6down = (avgPR >= 0.65 and avgPR < 0.7)
Pear7down = (avgPR >= 0.7 and avgPR < 0.75)
Pear8down = (avgPR >= 0.75 and avgPR < 0.8)
Pear9down = (avgPR >= 0.8 and avgPR <= 1)
Weighting:
Each condition has an associated weight, such as 0.9 for Pear1up, 1.9 for Pear2up, and so on, up to 9 for Pear9up.
Sum up :
Pear1up = 0.9
Pear2up = 1.9
Pear3up = 2.9
Pear4up = 3.9
Pear5up = 4.99
Pear6up = 6
Pear7up = 7
Pear8up = 8
Pear9up = 9
Total Score:
The positive score (posScorePear) is the sum of these values for each condition that returns true.
A corresponding negative score (negScorePear) is calculated using conditions for when avgPR falls on the positive side, with similar weights in the negative direction.
This score quantifies the current correlation reading by translating its relative level into a numeric score through a weighted sum.
3. Trendpear Score
What It Represents: The Trendpear score is more dynamic as it compares the current avgPR with its short-term moving average (sma_avgPR / 14 periods ) and also considers its relationship with an even longer moving average (bigsma_avgPR / 100 periods). It is meant to capture the trend or momentum in the correlation behavior.
How It’s Calculated:
Conditions: Nine conditions (from Trendpear1up to Trendpear9up) are defined to check:
Whether avgPR is below, equal to, or above sma_avgPR by different margins;
Whether it is trending upward (i.e., it is higher than its previous value).
Here are the rules
Trendpear1up = (avgPR <= sma_avgPR -0.2) and (avgPR >= avgPR )
Trendpear2up = (avgPR > sma_avgPR -0.2) and (avgPR <= sma_avgPR -0.07) and (avgPR >= avgPR )
Trendpear3up = (avgPR > sma_avgPR -0.07) and (avgPR <= sma_avgPR -0.03) and (avgPR >= avgPR )
Trendpear4up = (avgPR > sma_avgPR -0.03) and (avgPR <= sma_avgPR -0.02) and (avgPR >= avgPR )
Trendpear5up = (avgPR > sma_avgPR -0.02) and (avgPR <= sma_avgPR -0.01) and (avgPR >= avgPR )
Trendpear6up = (avgPR > sma_avgPR -0.01) and (avgPR <= sma_avgPR -0.001) and (avgPR >= avgPR )
Trendpear7up = (avgPR >= sma_avgPR) and (avgPR >= avgPR ) and (avgPR <= bigsma_avgPR)
Trendpear8up = (avgPR >= sma_avgPR) and (avgPR >= avgPR ) and (avgPR >= bigsma_avgPR -0.03)
Trendpear9up = (avgPR >= sma_avgPR) and (avgPR >= avgPR ) and (avgPR >= bigsma_avgPR)
Weighting:
The weights here are not linear. For example, the lightest condition may add 0.1 point, whereas the most extreme condition (e.g., when avgPR is not only above the moving average but also reaches a high proportion relative to bigsma_avgPR) might add as much as 90 points.
Trendpear1up = 0.1
Trendpear2up = 0.2
Trendpear3up = 0.3
Trendpear4up = 0.4
Trendpear5up = 0.5
Trendpear6up = 0.69
Trendpear7up = 7
Trendpear8up = 8.9
Trendpear9up = 90
Total Score:
The positive score (posScoreTrendpear) is the sum of the weights from all conditions that are satisfied.
A negative counterpart (negScoreTrendpear) exists similarly for when the trend indicates a downward bias.
Trendpear integrates both the level and the direction of change in the correlations, giving a strong numeric indication when the market starts to diverge from its short-term average.
4. Deviation Score
What It Represents: The “Écart” score quantifies how far the asset’s price deviates from the boundaries defined by the regression channels. This metric can indicate if the price is excessively deviating—which might signal an eventual reversion—or confirming a breakout.
How It’s Calculated:
Conditions: For each channel (with at least seven channels contributing to the scoring from the provided code), there are three levels of deviation:
First tier (EcartXup): Checks if the price is below the upper boundary but above a second boundary.
Second tier (EcartXup2): Checks if the price has dropped further, between a lower and a more extreme boundary.
Third tier (EcartXup3): Checks if the price is below the most extreme limit.
Weighting:
Each tier within a channel has a very small weight for the lowest severities (for example, 0.0001 for the first tier, 0.0002 for the second, 0.0003 for the third) with weights increasing with the channel index.
First channel : 0.0001 to 0.0003 (very short term)
Second channel : 0.001 to 0.003 (short term)
Third channel : 0.01 to 0.03 (short mid term)
4th channel : 0.1 to 0.3 ( mid term)
5th channel: 1 to 3 (long mid term)
6th channel : 10 to 30 (long term)
7th channel : 100 to 300 (very long term)
Total Score:
The overall positive score (posScoreEcart) is the sum of all the weights for conditions met among the first, second, and third tiers.
The corresponding negative score (negScoreEcart) is calculated similarly (using conditions when the price is above the channel boundaries), with the weights being the same in magnitude but negative in sign.
This layered scoring method allows the indicator to reflect both minor and major deviations in a gradated and cumulative manner.
Example :
Score + = 321.0001
Score - = -0.111
The asset price is really overextended in long term view, not for mid term & short term expect the in the very short term.
Score + = 0.0033
Score - = -1.11
The asset price is really extended in short term view, not for mid term (even a bit underextended) & long term is neutral
5. Slope Score
What It Represents: The Slope score captures the trend direction and steepness of the regression channels. It reflects whether the regression line (and hence the underlying trend) is sloping upward or downward.
How It’s Calculated:
Conditions:
if the slope has a uptrend = 1
if the slope has a downtrend = -1
Weighting:
First channel : 0.0001 to 0.0003 (very short term)
Second channel : 0.001 to 0.003 (short term)
Third channel : 0.01 to 0.03 (short mid term)
4th channel : 0.1 to 0.3 ( mid term)
5th channel: 1 to 3 (long mid term)
6th channel : 10 to 30 (long term)
7th channel : 100 to 300 (very long term)
The positive slope conditions incrementally add weights from 0.0001 for the smallest positive slopes to 100 for the largest among the seven checks. And negative for the downward slopes.
The positive score (posScoreSlope) is the sum of all the weights from the upward slope conditions that are met.
The negative score (negScoreSlope) sums the negative weights when downward conditions are met.
Example :
Score + = 111
Score - = -0.1111
Trend is up for longterm & down for mid & short term
The slope score therefore emphasizes both the magnitude and the direction of the trend as indicated by the regression channels, with an intentional asymmetry that flags strong downtrends more aggressively.
Summary
For each category—BigPear, Pear, Trendpear, Écart, and Slope—the indicator evaluates a defined set of conditions. Each condition is a binary test (true/false) based on different thresholds or comparisons (for example, comparing the current value to a moving average or a channel boundary). When a condition is true, its assigned weight is added to the cumulative score for that category. These individual scores, both positive and negative, are then displayed in a table, making it easy for the trader to see at a glance where the market stands according to each analytical dimension.
This comprehensive, weighted approach allows the indicator to encapsulate several layers of market information into a single set of scores, aiding in the identification of potential trading opportunities or market reversals.

Mandelbrot-Fibonacci Cascade Vortex (MFCV)Mandelbrot-Fibonacci Cascade Vortex (MFCV) - Where Chaos Theory Meets Sacred Geometry
A Revolutionary Synthesis of Fractal Mathematics and Golden Ratio Dynamics
What began as an exploration into Benoit Mandelbrot's fractal market hypothesis and the mysterious appearance of Fibonacci sequences in nature has culminated in a groundbreaking indicator that reveals the hidden mathematical structure underlying market movements. This indicator represents months of research into chaos theory, fractal geometry, and the golden ratio's manifestation in financial markets.
The Theoretical Foundation
Mandelbrot's Fractal Market Hypothesis Traditional efficient market theory assumes normal distributions and random walks. Mandelbrot proved markets are fractal - self-similar patterns repeating across all timeframes with power-law distributions. The MFCV implements this through:
Hurst Exponent Calculation: H = log(R/S) / log(n/2)
Where:
R = Range of cumulative deviations
S = Standard deviation
n = Period length
This measures market memory:
H > 0.5: Trending (persistent) behavior
H = 0.5: Random walk
H < 0.5: Mean-reverting (anti-persistent) behavior
Fractal Dimension: D = 2 - H
This quantifies market complexity, where higher dimensions indicate more chaotic behavior.
Fibonacci Vortex Theory Markets don't move linearly - they spiral. The MFCV reveals these spirals using Fibonacci sequences:
Vortex Calculation: Vortex(n) = Price + sin(bar_index × φ / Fn) × ATR(Fn) × Volume_Factor
Where:
φ = 0.618 (golden ratio)
Fn = Fibonacci number (8, 13, 21, 34, 55)
Volume_Factor = 1 + (Volume/SMA(Volume,50) - 1) × 0.5
This creates oscillating spirals that contract and expand with market energy.
The Volatility Cascade System
Markets exhibit volatility clustering - Mandelbrot's "Noah Effect." The MFCV captures this through cascading volatility bands:
Cascade Level Calculation: Level(i) = ATR(20) × φ^i
Each level represents a different fractal scale, creating a multi-dimensional view of market structure. The golden ratio spacing ensures harmonic resonance between levels.

Hurst < 0.35 (mean reversion) AND RSI < 35
Trend strength > 0.4 AND vortex alignment
Cascade Signals: Triggered by:
RSI > 60 AND price > SMA(50) AND bearish vortex
RSI < 40 AND price < SMA(50) AND bullish vortex
Volatility expansion AND trend strength > 0.3
Both signals implement a 15-bar cooldown to prevent overtrading.

It combines multiple technical analysis approaches into an integrated visual system that helps traders identify potential trading opportunities while filtering out false signals.
Core Features
1. Volume Analysis Dashboard
The indicator displays various volume-related metrics in customizable tables:
AVOL (After Hours + Pre-Market Volume): Shows extended hours volume as a percentage of the 21-day average volume with color coding for buying/selling pressure. Green indicates buying pressure and red indicates selling pressure.
Volume Metrics: Includes regular volume (VOL), dollar volume ($VOL), relative volume compared to 21-day average (RVOL), and relative volume compared to 90-day average (RVOL90D).
Pre-Market Data: Optional display of pre-market volume (PVOL), pre-market dollar volume (P$VOL), pre-market relative volume (PRVOL), and pre-market price change percentage (PCHG%).
2. Enhanced Volume Trend (VTR) Analysis
The Volume Trend indicator uses adaptive analysis to evaluate buying and selling pressure, combining multiple factors:
MACD (Moving Average Convergence Divergence) components
Volume-to-SMA (Simple Moving Average) ratio
Price direction and market conditions
Volume change rates and momentum
EMA (Exponential Moving Average) alignment and crossovers
Volatility filtering
VTR Visual Indicators
The VTR score ranges from 0-100, with values above 50 indicating bullish conditions and below 50 indicating bearish conditions. This is visually represented by colored circles:
"●" (Filled Circle):
Green: Strong bullish trend (VTR ≥ 80)
Red: Strong bearish trend (VTR ≤ 20)
"◯" (Hollow Circle):
Green: Moderate bullish trend (VTR 65-79)
Red: Moderate bearish trend (VTR 21-35)
"·" (Small Dot):
Green: Weak bullish trend (VTR 55-64)
Red: Weak bearish trend (VTR 36-45)
"○" (Medium Hollow Circle): Neutral conditions (VTR 46-54), shown in gray
In "Both" display mode, the VTR shows both the numerical score (0-100) alongside the appropriate circle symbol.
Enhanced VTR Settings
The Enhanced Volume Trend component offers several advanced customization options:
Adaptive Volume Analysis (volTrendAdaptive):
When enabled, dynamically adjusts volume thresholds based on recent market volatility
Higher volatility periods require proportionally higher volume to generate significant signals
Helps prevent false signals during highly volatile markets
Keep enabled for most trading conditions, especially in volatile markets
Speed of Change Weight (volTrendSpeedWeight, range 0-1):
Controls emphasis on volume acceleration/deceleration rather than absolute levels
Higher values (0.7-1.0): More responsive to new volume trends, better for momentum trading
Lower values (0.2-0.5): Less responsive, better for trend following
Helps identify early volume trends before they fully develop
Momentum Period (volTrendMomentumPeriod, range 2-10):
Defines lookback period for volume change rate calculations
Lower values (2-3): More responsive to recent changes, better for short timeframes
Higher values (7-10): Smoother, better for daily/weekly charts
Directly affects how quickly the indicator responds to new volume patterns
Volatility Filter (volTrendVolatilityFilter):
Adjusts significance of volume by factoring in current price volatility
High volume during high volatility receives less weight
High volume during low volatility receives more weight
Helps distinguish between genuine volume-driven moves and volatility-driven moves
EMA Alignment Weight (volTrendEmaWeight, range 0-1):
Controls importance of EMA alignments in final VTR calculation
Analyzes multiple EMA relationships (5, 10, 21 period)
Higher values (0.7-1.0): Greater emphasis on trend structure
Lower values (0.2-0.5): More focus on pure volume patterns
Display Mode (volTrendDisplayMode):
"Value": Shows only numerical score (0-100)
"Strength": Shows only symbolic representation
"Both": Shows numerical score and symbol together
3. Bollinger Band Squeeze Detection (SQZ)
The BB Squeeze indicator identifies periods of low volatility when Bollinger Bands contract inside Keltner Channels, often preceding significant price movements.
SQZ Visual Indicators
"●" (Filled Circle): Strong squeeze - high probability setup for an impending breakout
Green: Strong squeeze with bullish bias (likely upward breakout)
Red: Strong squeeze with bearish bias (likely downward breakout)
Orange: Strong squeeze with unclear direction
"◯" (Hollow Circle): Moderate squeeze - medium probability setup
Green: With bullish EMA alignment
Red: With bearish EMA alignment
Orange: Without clear directional bias
"-" (Dash): Gray dash indicates no squeeze condition (normal volatility)
The script identifies squeeze conditions through multiple methods:
Bollinger Bands contracting inside Keltner Channels
BB width falling to bottom 20% of recent range (BB width percentile)
Very narrow Keltner Channel (less than 5% of basis price)
Tracking squeeze duration in consecutive bars
Different squeeze strengths are detected:
Strong Squeeze: BB inside KC with tight BB width and narrow KC
Moderate Squeeze: BB inside KC with either tight BB width or narrow KC
No Squeeze: Normal market conditions
4. Breakout Detection System
The script includes two breakout indicators working in sequence:
4.1 Pre-Breakout (PBK) Indicator
Detects potential upcoming breakouts by analyzing multiple factors:
Squeeze conditions lasting 2-3 bars or more
Significant price ranges
Strong volume confirmation
EMA/MACD crossovers
Consistent price direction
PBK Visual Indicators
"●" (Filled Circle): Detected pre-breakout condition
Green: Likely upward breakout (bullish)
Red: Likely downward breakout (bearish)
Orange: Direction not yet clear, but breakout likely
"-" (Dash): Gray dash indicates no pre-breakout condition
The PBK uses sophisticated conditions to reduce false signals including minimum squeeze length, significant price movement, and technical confirmations.
4.2 Breakout (BK) Indicator
Confirms actual breakouts in progress by identifying:
End of squeeze or strong expansion of Bollinger Bands
Volume expansion
Price moving outside Bollinger Bands
EMA crossovers with volume confirmation
MACD crossovers with significant price range
BK Visual Indicators
"●" (Filled Circle): Confirmed breakout in progress
Green: Upward breakout (bullish)
Red: Downward breakout (bearish)
Orange: Unusual breakout pattern without clear direction
"◆" (Diamond): Special breakout conditions (meets some but not all criteria)
"-" (Dash): Gray dash indicates no breakout detected
The BK indicator uses advanced filters for confirmation:
Requires consecutive breakout signals to reduce false positives
Strong volume confirmation requirements (40% above average)
Significant price movement thresholds
Consistency checks between price action and indicators
5. Market Metrics and Analysis

7. Session Analysis and Volume Direction
Session Detection
The script accurately identifies different market sessions:
Pre-market: 4:00 AM to 9:30 AM
Regular market: 9:30 AM to 4:00 PM
After-hours: 4:00 PM to 8:00 PM
Closed: Outside trading hours
This detection works on any timeframe through careful calculation of current time in seconds.
Buy/Sell Volume Direction
The script analyzes buying and selling pressure by:
Counting up volume when close > open
Counting down volume when close < open
Tracking accumulated volume within the day
Calculating intraday pressure (up volume minus down volume)
Enhanced AVOL Calculation
The improved AVOL calculation works in all timeframes by:
Estimating typical pre-market and after-hours volume percentages
Combining yesterday's after-hours with today's pre-market volume
Calculating this as a percentage of the 21-day average volume
Determining buying/selling pressure by analyzing after-hours and pre-market price changes
Color-coding results: green for buying pressure, red for selling pressure
This calculation is particularly valuable because it works consistently across any timeframe.

Practical Trading Applications
Complete Trading Strategies
1. Squeeze Breakout Strategy
This strategy combines multiple components of the indicator:
Wait for a strong squeeze (SQZ showing ●)
Look for pre-breakout confirmation (PBK showing ● in green or red)
Enter when breakout is confirmed (BK showing ● in same direction)
Use VTR to confirm volume supports the move (VTR ≥ 65 for bullish or ≤ 35 for bearish)
Set profit targets based on ADR (Average Daily Range)
Exit when VTR begins to weaken or changes direction
2. Volume Divergence Strategy
This strategy focuses on the volume trend relative to price:
Identify when price makes a new high but VTR fails to confirm (divergence)
Look for VTR to show weakening trend (● changing to ◯ or ·)
Prepare for potential reversal when SQZ begins to form
Enter counter-trend position when PBK confirms reversal direction
Use external indicators (QQQ, BTC, Breadth) to confirm broader market support
3. Pre-Market Edge Strategy
This strategy leverages pre-market data:
Monitor AVOL for unusual pre-market activity (significantly above 100%)
Check pre-market price change direction (PCHG%)
Enter position at market open if VTR confirms direction
Use SQZ to determine if volatility is likely to expand
Exit based on RVOL declining or price reaching +/- ADR for the day
Market Context Integration
The indicator provides valuable context for trading decisions:
QQQ change shows tech market direction
BTC price shows crypto market correlation
UVIX change indicates volatility expectations
Breadth measurement shows market internals
This context helps traders avoid fighting the broader market and align trades with overall market direction.
Timeframe Optimization
The indicator is designed to work across different timeframes:
For day trading: Focus on AVOL, VTR, PBK/BK, and use shorter momentum periods
For swing trading: Focus on SQZ duration, VTR strength, and broader market indicators

Advanced Analytical Components
Enhanced Volume Trend Score Calculation
The VTR score calculation is sophisticated, with the base score starting at 50 and adjusting for:
Price direction (up/down)
Volume relative to average (high/normal/low)
Volume acceleration/deceleration
Market conditions (bull/bear)
Additional factors are then applied, including:
MACD influence weighted by strength and direction
Volume change rate influence (speed)
Price/volume divergence effects
EMA alignment scores
Volatility adjustments
Breakout strength factors
Price action confirmations
The final score is clamped between 0-100, with values above 50 indicating bullish conditions and below 50 indicating bearish conditions.
Anti-False Signal Filters
The indicator employs multiple techniques to reduce false signals:
Requiring significant price range (minimum percentage movement)
Demanding strong volume confirmation (significantly above average)
Checking for consistent direction across multiple indicators
Requiring prior bar consistency (consecutive bars moving in same direction)
Counting consecutive signals to filter out noise
These filters help eliminate noise and focus on high-probability setups.
MACD Enhancement and Integration

This sequence often occurs in order, with the squeeze leading to pre-breakout conditions, followed by an actual breakout.
VTR (Volume Trend): Provides context about the volume supporting these movements.
Color Coding: Green for bullish conditions, red for bearish conditions, and orange/gray for neutral or undefined conditions.
True Strength Index (TSI)%📌 Script Name: TSI Percentuale
This script is a custom True Strength Index (TSI) indicator that expresses momentum strength as a percentage from 0% to 100%, instead of the traditional TSI scale.
✅ What the Script Does
Calculates the standard TSI:
Uses double exponential smoothing of price changes and their absolute values.
Formula:
TSI_raw
=
100
×
DoubleSmoothed(ΔPrice)
DoubleSmoothed(|ΔPrice|)
TSI_raw=100×
DoubleSmoothed(|ΔPrice|)
DoubleSmoothed(ΔPrice)
Normalizes TSI to a percentile scale:
Over a user-defined lookback period, the script finds the lowest and highest TSI values.
It then rescales the current TSI to a value between 0% (minimum) and 100% (maximum).
50% represents neutral momentum (i.e., "flat").
Plots the result:
tsi_percent is plotted as a blue line.
Horizontal dashed/dotted lines are drawn at:
0% → strong downward momentum
50% → neutral
100% → strong upward momentum
⚙️ Inputs
Long Length: Long EMA smoothing period (default: 25)
Short Length: Short EMA smoothing period (default: 13)
Signal Length: (not used in this version, can be removed or extended)
Lookback Period: Number of bars to calculate min/max normalization (default: 100)
🧠 Why Use This Indicator
The classic TSI ranges around and can be hard to interpret.
This version makes TSI visually intuitive by converting it to percentile form, allowing easier comparison of momentum strength across time and instruments.
It’s particularly useful for defining zones like:
Above 70% = strong bullish
Below 30% = strong bearish
HL2 Moving Average with BandsThis indicator is designed to assist traders in identifying potential trade entries and exits for S&P 500 (ES) and Nasdaq-100 (NQ) futures. It calculates a Simple Moving Average (SMA) based on the HL2 value (average of high and low prices) of the current candle over a user-defined lookback period (default: 200 periods). The indicator plots this SMA as a blue line, providing a smoothed reference for price trends.
Additionally, it includes upper and lower bands calculated as a percentage (default: 0.5%) above and below the SMA, plotted as green and red lines, respectively. These bands act as dynamic thresholds to identify overbought or oversold conditions. The indicator generates trade signals based on price action relative to these bands:
Long Entry: A green upward triangle is plotted below the candle when the close crosses above the upper band, signaling a potential buy.
Close Long: A red square is plotted above the candle when the close crosses back below the upper band, indicating an exit for the long position.
Short Entry: A red downward triangle is plotted above the candle when the close crosses below the lower band, signaling a potential sell.
Close Short: A green square is plotted below the candle when the close crosses back above the lower band, indicating an exit for the short position.
The script is customizable, allowing users to adjust the SMA length and band percentage to suit their trading style or market conditions. It is plotted as an overlay on the price chart for easy integration with other technical analysis tools.
Recommended Time Frame and Settings for Trading S&P 500 and Nasdaq-100 Futures
Based on research and market dynamics for S&P 500 (ES) and Nasdaq-100 (NQ) futures, the 5-minute chart is recommended as the optimal time frame for day trading with this indicator. This time frame strikes a balance between capturing intraday trends and filtering out excessive noise, which is critical for futures trading due to their high volatility and leverage. The 5-minute chart aligns well with periods of high liquidity and volatility, such as the U.S. market open (9:30 AM–11:00 AM EST) and the afternoon session (2:00 PM–4:00 PM EST), when institutional traders are most active.
Why 5-minute? It allows traders to react to short-term price movements while avoiding the rapid fluctuations of 1-minute charts, which can be prone to false signals in choppy markets. It also provides enough data points to make the SMA and bands meaningful without the lag associated with longer time frames like 15-minute or hourly charts.
Recommended Settings
SMA Length: Set to 200 periods. This longer lookback period smooths the HL2 data, reducing noise and providing a reliable trend reference for the 5-minute chart. A 200-period SMA helps identify significant trend shifts without being overly sensitive to minor price fluctuations.
Band Percentage: 0.5% is more suitable for the volatility of ES and NQ futures on a 5-minute chart, as it generates fewer but higher-probability signals. Wider bands (e.g., 1%) may miss short-term opportunities, while narrower bands (e.g., 0.1%) may produce excessive false signals.
Trading Session Recommendations
Futures markets for ES and NQ are open nearly 24 hours (Sunday 6:00 PM EST to Friday 5:00 PM EST, with a daily break from 4:00 PM–5:00 PM EST), but not all hours are equally optimal due to varying liquidity and volatility. The best times to trade with this indicator are:
U.S. Market Open (9:30 AM–11:00 AM EST): This period is characterized by high volume and volatility, driven by the opening of U.S. equity markets and economic data releases (e.g., 8:30 AM EST reports like CPI or GDP). The indicator’s signals are more reliable during this window due to strong order flow and price momentum.
Afternoon Session (2:00 PM–4:00 PM EST): After the lunchtime lull, volume picks up as institutional traders return, and news or FOMC announcements often drive price action. The indicator can capture breakout moves as prices test the upper or lower bands.
Pre-Market (7:30 AM–9:30 AM EST): For traders comfortable with lower liquidity, this period can offer opportunities, especially around 8:30 AM EST economic releases. However, use tighter risk management due to wider spreads and potential volatility spikes.
Additional Tips
Avoid Low-Volume Periods: Steer clear of trading during low-liquidity hours, such as the overnight session (11:00 PM–3:00 AM EST), when spreads widen and price movements can be erratic, leading to false signals from the indicator.
Combine with Other Tools: Enhance the indicator’s effectiveness by pairing it with support/resistance levels, Fibonacci retracements, or volume analysis to confirm signals. For example, a long entry signal above the upper band is stronger if it coincides with a breakout above a key resistance level.
Risk Management: Given the leverage in futures (e.g., Micro E-mini contracts require ~$1,200 margin for ES), use tight stop-losses (e.g., below the lower band for longs or above the upper band for shorts) to manage risk. Aim for a risk-reward ratio of at least 1:2.
Test Settings: Backtest the indicator on a demo account to optimize the SMA length and band percentage for your specific trading style and risk tolerance. Micro E-mini contracts (MES for S&P 500, MNQ for Nasdaq-100) are ideal for testing due to their lower capital requirements.
Why These Settings and Time Frame?
The 5-minute chart with a 200-period SMA and 0.5% bands is tailored for the volatility and liquidity of ES and NQ futures during peak trading hours. The longer SMA period ensures the indicator captures meaningful trends, while the 0.5% bands are tight enough to signal actionable breakouts but wide enough to avoid excessive whipsaws. Trading during high-volume sessions maximizes the likelihood of valid signals, as institutional participation drives clearer price action.
By focusing on these settings and time frames, traders can leverage the indicator to capitalize on the dynamic price movements of S&P 500 and Nasdaq-100 futures while managing the inherent risks of these markets.
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.

Fibonacci Levels with SMA SignalsThis strategy leverages Fibonacci retracement levels along with the 100-period and 200-period Simple Moving Averages (SMAs) to generate robust entry and exit signals for long-term swing trades, particularly on the daily timeframe. The combination of Fibonacci levels and SMAs provides a powerful way to capitalize on major trend reversals and market retracements, especially in stocks and major crypto assets.
The core of this strategy involves calculating key Fibonacci retracement levels (23.6%, 38.2%, 61.8%, and 78.6%) based on the highest high and lowest low over a 365-day lookback period. These Fibonacci levels act as potential support and resistance zones, indicating areas where price may retrace before continuing its trend. The 100-period SMA and 200-period SMA are used to define the broader market trend, with the strategy favoring uptrend conditions for buying and downtrend conditions for selling.
This indicator highlights high-probability zones for long or short swing setups based on Fibonacci retracements and the broader trend, using the 100 and 200 SMAs.
In addition, this strategy integrates alert conditions to notify the trader when these key conditions are met, providing real-time notifications for optimal entry and exit points. These alerts ensure that the trader does not miss significant trade opportunities.
Key Features:
Fibonacci Retracement Levels: The Fibonacci levels provide natural price zones that traders often watch for potential reversals, making them highly relevant in the context of swing trading.
100 and 200 SMAs: These moving averages help define the overall market trend, ensuring that the strategy operates in line with broader price action.
Buy and Sell Signals: The strategy generates buy signals when the price is above the 200 SMA and retraces to the 61.8% Fibonacci level. Sell signals are triggered when the price is below the 200 SMA and retraces to the 38.2% Fibonacci level.
Alert Conditions: The alert conditions notify traders when the price is at the key Fibonacci levels in the context of an uptrend or downtrend, allowing for efficient monitoring of trade opportunities.
Application:
This strategy is ideal for long-term swing trades in both stocks and major cryptocurrencies (such as BTC and ETH), particularly on the daily timeframe. The daily timeframe allows for capturing broader, more sustained trends, making it suitable for identifying high-quality entries and exits. By using the 100 and 200 SMAs, the strategy filters out noise and focuses on larger, more meaningful trends, which is especially useful for longer-term positions.
This script is optimized for swing traders looking to capitalize on retracements and trends in markets like stocks and crypto. By combining Fibonacci levels with SMAs, the strategy ensures that traders are not only entering at optimal levels but also trading in the direction of the prevailing trend.

Normalized MACD with RSI & Stoch RSI Indicator
Overview:
This indicator combines three popular momentum indicators (MACD, RSI, and Stochastic RSI) into a single cohesive, normalized view, making it easier for traders to interpret market momentum and potential buy/sell signals. It specifically addresses an important issue—the different scale ranges of indicators—by normalizing MACD values to match the 0–100 scale of RSI and Stochastic RSI.
⸻
Key Components:
① MACD (Normalized):
• The Moving Average Convergence Divergence (MACD) originally has an unlimited numerical range.
• Normalization Method:
• Uses a custom tanh(x) function implemented directly in Pine Script:
\tanh(x) = \frac{e^{x}-e^{-x}}{e^{x}+e^{-x}}
• MACD values are scaled using this method to a range of 0–100, with the neutral line at exactly 50.
• Interpretation:
• Values above 50 indicate bullish momentum.
• Values below 50 indicate bearish momentum.
② RSI (Relative Strength Index):
• Measures market momentum on a 0–100 scale.
• Traditional RSI interpretation:
• Overbought conditions: RSI > 70–80.
• Oversold conditions: RSI < 30–20.
③ Stochastic RSI:
• Combines RSI and Stochastic Oscillator to give short-term, highly sensitive signals.
• Helps identify immediate market extremes:
• Above 80 → Short-term overbought.
• Below 20 → Short-term oversold.
⸻
How the Indicator Works:
• Visualization:
• All three indicators (Normalized MACD, RSI, Stochastic RSI) share the same 0–100 scale.
• Clear visual lines and reference levels:
• Midline at 50 indicates neutral momentum.
• Dashed lines at 20 and 80 clearly mark oversold/overbought zones.
• Trading Signals (Recommended approach):
• Bullish Signal (Potential Buy):
• Normalized MACD crosses above 50.
• RSI below or approaching oversold zone (below 30–20).
• Stochastic RSI below 20, indicating short-term oversold conditions.
• Bearish Signal (Potential Sell):
• Normalized MACD crosses below 50.
• RSI above or approaching overbought zone (above 70–80).
• Stochastic RSI above 80, indicating short-term overbought conditions.
⸻
Why Use This Indicator?
• Harmonized Signals:
Normalization of MACD significantly improves clarity and comparability with RSI and Stochastic RSI, providing a unified momentum picture.
• Intuitive Analysis:
Traders can rapidly and intuitively identify momentum shifts without needing multiple indicator windows.
• Improved Decision-Making:
Clear visual references and signals help reduce subjective interpretation, potentially improving trading outcomes.
⸻
Suggested Usage:
• Combine with traditional support
MA Trend ScoreA Trend Score Indicator inspired by an interview by Navy Ramavat, where I liked the idea presented and decided to publish a script for it.
Disclaimer: I am not associated with Navy Ramavat in any manner.
The goal is to objectify the trend of an instrument and calculate a score which represents the trend strength and direction.
The score is calculated as follows:
If price is > EMA 20 add 1 to the score
If price is > EMA 50 add 1 to the score
If price is > EMA 100 add 1 to the score
If EMA 20 is > EMA 50 add 1 to the score
If EMA 20 is > EMA 100 add 1 to the score
If EMA 50 is > EMA 100 add 1 to the score
If EMA 20 is < EMA 50 deduct 1 from the score
If EMA 20 is < EMA 100 deduct 1 from the score
If EMA 50 is < EMA 100 deduct 1 from the score
The highest score can be 6, and lowest score can be -6
The trend score can be used as per your discretion on the long and short side.
An example of using the trend score on the long side for position sizing is:
100% position size if Score greater than 4
75% position size if Score between 2-4
50% position size if Score between 0-2
25% position size if Score between 0 and -2
0% position size if Score is less than -2

ARC’s centerpiece is a linear regression line derived from a Weighted Moving Average (WMA) of closing prices. This line adapts its calculation period based on market volatility (via ATR) and is capped between a minimum of 20 bars and a maximum of 1.5 times the user-defined base length (default 100). Visually, it shifts colors to reflect trend direction: green for an upward slope (bullish) and red for a downward slope (bearish), offering an instant snapshot of market sentiment.
2. Dynamic Residual Channels
Surrounding the regression line are upper (red) and lower (green) channels, calculated using the standard deviation of residuals—the difference between actual closing prices and the regression line. This approach ensures the channels precisely track how closely prices follow the trend, rather than relying solely on overall price volatility. The channel width is dynamically adjusted by a multiplier that factors in:
Volatility: Measured through the Average True Range (ATR), widening channels during turbulent markets.
Trend Strength: Based on the regression slope, expanding channels in strong trends and contracting them in consolidation phases.
3. Volume-Weighted Moving Average (VWMA)
Plotted in orange, the VWMA overlays a volume-weighted price trend, emphasizing movements backed by significant trading activity. This complements the regression line, providing additional confirmation of trend validity and potential breakout strength.
4. Scaled RSI Overlay
ARC features a Relative Strength Index (RSI) overlay, plotted in purple and scaled to hover closely around the regression line. This compact display reflects momentum shifts within the trend’s context, keeping RSI visible on the price chart without excessive swings. User-defined overbought (default 70) and oversold (default 30) levels offer reference points for momentum analysis."
Technical Highlights
ARC leverages a volatility-adjusted lookback period, residual-based channel construction, and multi-indicator integration to achieve high accuracy. Its parameters—such as base length, channel width, ATR period, and RSI length—are fully customizable, allowing traders to tailor it to their specific needs.
Why Choose ARC?
ARC stands out for its adaptability and precision. The residual-based channels offer tighter, more relevant support and resistance levels compared to standard volatility measures, while the dynamic adjustments ensure it performs well in both trending and ranging markets. The inclusion of VWMA and scaled RSI adds depth, merging trend, volume, and momentum into a single, cohesive overlay. For traders seeking a versatile, all-in-one indicator, ARC delivers actionable insights with minimal noise.
Best Ways to Use the Adaptive Regression Channel (ARC)
The Adaptive Regression Channel (ARC) is a flexible tool that supports a variety of trading strategies, from trend-following to breakout detection. Below are the most effective ways to use ARC, along with practical tips for maximizing its potential. Adjustments to its settings may be necessary depending on the timeframe (e.g., intraday vs. daily) and the asset being traded (e.g., stocks, FOREX, cryptocurrencies), as each market exhibits unique volatility and behavior.
1. Trend Following
• How to Use: Rely on the regression line’s color to guide your trades. A green line (upward slope) signals a bullish trend—consider entering or holding long positions. A red line (downward slope) indicates a bearish trend—look to short or exit longs.
• Best Practice: Confirm the trend with the VWMA (orange line). Price above the VWMA in a green uptrend strengthens the bullish case; price below in a red downtrend reinforces bearish momentum.
• Adjustment: For short timeframes like 15-minute crypto charts, lower the Base Regression Length (e.g., to 50) for quicker trend detection. For weekly stock charts, increase it (e.g., to 200) to capture broader movements.
2. Channel-Based Trades
• How to Use: Use the upper channel (red) as resistance and the lower channel (green) as support. Buy when the price bounces off the lower channel in an uptrend, and sell or short when it rejects the upper channel in a downtrend.
• Best Practice: Check the scaled RSI (purple line) for momentum cues. A low RSI (e.g., near 30) at the lower channel suggests a stronger buy signal; a high RSI (e.g., near 70) at the upper channel supports a sell.
• Adjustment: In volatile crypto markets, widen the Base Channel Width Coefficient (e.g., to 2.5) to reduce false signals. For stable FOREX pairs (e.g., EUR/USD), a narrower width (e.g., 1.5) may work better.
3. Breakout Detection
• How to Use: Watch for price breaking above the upper channel (bullish breakout) or below the lower channel (bearish breakout). These moves often signal strong momentum shifts.
• Best Practice: Validate breakouts with VWMA position—price above VWMA for bullish breaks, below for bearish—and ensure the regression line’s slope aligns (green for up, red for down).
• Adjustment: For fast-moving assets like crypto on 1-hour charts, shorten ATR Length (e.g., to 7) to make channels more reactive. For stocks on daily charts, keep it at 14 or higher for reliability.
4. Momentum Analysis
• How to Use: The scaled RSI overlay shows momentum relative to the regression line. Rising RSI in a green uptrend confirms bullish strength; falling RSI in a red downtrend supports bearish pressure.
• Best Practice: Look for RSI divergences—e.g., price hitting new highs at the upper channel while RSI flattens or drops could signal an impending reversal.
• Adjustment: Reduce RSI Length (e.g., to 7) for intraday trading in FOREX or crypto to catch short-term momentum shifts. Increase it (e.g., to 21) for longer-term stock trades.
5. Range Trading
• How to Use: When the regression line’s slope is near zero (flat) and channels are tight, ARC indicates a ranging market. Buy near the lower channel and sell near the upper channel, targeting the regression line as the mean price.
• Best Practice: Ensure VWMA hovers close to the regression line to confirm the range-bound state.
• Adjustment: For low-volatility stocks on daily charts, use a moderate Base Regression Length (e.g., 100) and tight Base Channel Width (e.g., 1.5). For choppy crypto markets, test shorter settings.
Optimization Strategies
• Timeframe Customization: Adjust ARC’s parameters to match your trading horizon. Short timeframes (e.g., 1-minute to 1-hour) benefit from lower Base Regression Length (20–50) and ATR Length (7–10) for agility, while longer timeframes (e.g., daily, weekly) favor higher values (100–200 and 14–21) for stability.
• Asset-Specific Tuning:
○ Stocks: Use longer lengths (e.g., 100–200) and moderate widths (e.g., 1.8) for stable equities; tweak ATR Length based on sector volatility (shorter for tech, longer for utilities).
○ FOREX: Set Base Regression Length to 50–100 and Base Channel Width to 1.5–2.0 for smoother trends; adjust RSI Length (e.g., 10–14) based on pair volatility.
○ Crypto: Opt for shorter lengths (e.g., 20–50) and wider widths (e.g., 2.0–3.0) to handle rapid price swings; use a shorter ATR Length (e.g., 7) for quick adaptation.
• Backtesting: Test ARC on historical data for your asset and timeframe to optimize settings. Evaluate how often price respects channels and whether breakouts yield profitable trades.
• Enhancements: Pair ARC with volume surges, key support/resistance levels, or candlestick patterns (e.g., doji at channel edges) for higher-probability setups.
Practical Considerations
ARC’s adaptability makes it suitable for diverse markets, but its performance hinges on proper calibration. Cryptocurrencies, with their high volatility, may require shorter, wider settings to capture rapid moves, while stocks on longer timeframes benefit from broader, smoother configurations. FOREX pairs often fall in between, depending on their inherent volatility. Experiment with the adjustable parameters to align ARC with your trading style and market conditions, ensuring it delivers the precision and reliability you need.
iD EMARSI on ChartSCRIPT OVERVIEW
The EMARSI indicator is an advanced technical analysis tool that maps RSI values directly onto price charts. With adaptive scaling capabilities, it provides a unique visualization of momentum that flows naturally with price action, making it particularly valuable for FOREX and low-priced securities trading.
KEY FEATURES
1 PRICE MAPPED RSI VISUALIZATION
Unlike traditional RSI that displays in a separate window, EMARSI plots the RSI directly on the price chart, creating a flowing line that identifies momentum shifts within the context of price action:
// Map RSI to price chart with better scaling
mappedRsi = useAdaptiveScaling ?
median + ((rsi - 50) / 50 * (pQH - pQL) / 2 * math.min(1.0, 1/scalingFactor)) :
down == pQL ? pQH : up == pQL ? pQL : median - (median / (1 + up / down))
2 ADAPTIVE SCALING SYSTEM
The script features an intelligent scaling system that automatically adjusts to different market conditions and price levels:
// Calculate adaptive scaling factor based on selected method
scalingFactor = if scalingMethod == "ATR-Based"
math.min(maxScalingFactor, math.max(1.0, minTickSize / (atrValue/avgPrice)))
else if scalingMethod == "Price-Based"
math.min(maxScalingFactor, math.max(1.0, math.sqrt(100 / math.max(avgPrice, 0.01))))
else // Volume-Based
math.min(maxScalingFactor, math.max(1.0, math.sqrt(1000000 / math.max(volume, 100))))
3 MODIFIED RSI CALCULATION
EMARSI uses a specially formulated RSI calculation that works with an adaptive base value to maintain consistency across different price ranges:
// Adaptive RSI Base based on price levels to improve flow
adaptiveRsiBase = useAdaptiveScaling ? rsiBase * scalingFactor : rsiBase
// Calculate RSI components with adaptivity
up = ta.rma(math.max(ta.change(rsiSourceInput), adaptiveRsiBase), emaSlowLength)
down = ta.rma(-math.min(ta.change(rsiSourceInput), adaptiveRsiBase), rsiLengthInput)
// Improved RSI calculation with value constraint
rsi = down == 0 ? 100 : up == 0 ? 0 : 100 - (100 / (1 + up / down))
4 MOVING AVERAGE CROSSOVER SYSTEM
The indicator creates a smooth moving average of the RSI line, enabling a crossover system that generates trading signals:
// Calculate MA of mapped RSI
rsiMA = ma(mappedRsi, emaSlowLength, maTypeInput)
// Strategy entries
if ta.crossover(mappedRsi, rsiMA)
strategy.entry("RSI Long", strategy.long)
if ta.crossunder(mappedRsi, rsiMA)
strategy.entry("RSI Short", strategy.short)
5 VISUAL REFERENCE FRAMEWORK
The script includes visual guides that help interpret the RSI movement within the context of recent price action:
// Calculate pivot high and low
pQH = ta.highest(high, hlLen)
pQL = ta.lowest(low, hlLen)
median = (pQH + pQL) / 2
// Plotting
plot(pQH, "Pivot High", color=color.rgb(82, 228, 102, 90))
plot(pQL, "Pivot Low", color=color.rgb(231, 65, 65, 90))
med = plot(median, style=plot.style_steplinebr, linewidth=1, color=color.rgb(238, 101, 59, 90))
6 DYNAMIC COLOR SYSTEM
The indicator uses color fills to clearly visualize the relationship between the RSI and its moving average:
// Color fills based on RSI vs MA
colUp = mappedRsi > rsiMA ? input.color(color.rgb(128, 255, 0), '', group= 'RSI > EMA', inline= 'up') :
input.color(color.rgb(240, 9, 9, 95), '', group= 'RSI < EMA', inline= 'dn')
colDn = mappedRsi > rsiMA ? input.color(color.rgb(0, 230, 35, 95), '', group= 'RSI > EMA', inline= 'up') :
input.color(color.rgb(255, 47, 0), '', group= 'RSI < EMA', inline= 'dn')
fill(rsiPlot, emarsi, mappedRsi > rsiMA ? pQH : rsiMA, mappedRsi > rsiMA ? rsiMA : pQL, colUp, colDn)
7 REAL TIME PARAMETER MONITORING
A transparent information panel provides real-time feedback on the adaptive parameters being applied:
// Information display
var table infoPanel = table.new(position.top_right, 2, 3, bgcolor=color.rgb(0, 0, 0, 80))
if barstate.islast
table.cell(infoPanel, 0, 0, "Current Scaling Factor", text_color=color.white)
table.cell(infoPanel, 1, 0, str.tostring(scalingFactor, "#.###"), text_color=color.white)
table.cell(infoPanel, 0, 1, "Adaptive RSI Base", text_color=color.white)
table.cell(infoPanel, 1, 1, str.tostring(adaptiveRsiBase, "#.####"), text_color=color.white)
BENEFITS FOR TRADERS
INTUITIVE MOMENTUM VISUALIZATION
By mapping RSI directly onto the price chart, traders can immediately see the relationship between momentum and price without switching between different indicator windows.
ADAPTIVE TO ANY MARKET CONDITION
The three scaling methods (ATR-Based, Price-Based, and Volume-Based) ensure the indicator performs consistently across different market conditions, volatility regimes, and price levels.
PREVENTS EXTREME VALUES
The adaptive scaling system prevents the RSI from generating extreme values that exceed chart boundaries when trading low-priced securities or during high volatility periods.
CLEAR TRADING SIGNALS
The RSI and moving average crossover system provides clear entry signals that are visually reinforced through color changes, making it easy to identify potential trading opportunities.
SUITABLE FOR MULTIPLE TIMEFRAMES
The indicator works effectively across multiple timeframes, from intraday to daily charts, making it versatile for different trading styles and strategies.
TRANSPARENT PARAMETER ADJUSTMENT
The information panel provides real-time feedback on how the adaptive system is adjusting to current market conditions, helping traders understand why the indicator is behaving as it is.
CUSTOMIZABLE VISUALIZATION
Multiple visualization options including Bollinger Bands, different moving average types, and customizable colors allow traders to adapt the indicator to their personal preferences.
CONCLUSION
The EMARSI indicator represents a significant advancement in RSI visualization by directly mapping momentum onto price charts with adaptive scaling. This approach makes momentum shifts more intuitive to identify and helps prevent the scaling issues that commonly affect RSI-based indicators when applied to low-priced securities or volatile markets.

Cognitive Echo IndexCognitive Echo Index – User Guide
Overview
The Cognitive Echo Index is a composite indicator that combines several technical aspects—including price deviation from a moving average, normalized volatility (via ATR), and volume variations—to create a single numeric value. The output is scaled between -100 and +100, offering insights into market momentum and potential trend reversals.
How It Works
Price Component:
The indicator calculates the percentage change between the current price and its 14-period simple moving average (SMA). This helps identify how far the price deviates from its recent trend.
Volatility Component:
Using the Average True Range (ATR) over a 14-period, the script normalizes current ATR against its 14-period SMA. This shows relative volatility, highlighting unusual market activity.
Volume Component:
It computes the percentage change between the current volume and its 14-period SMA to detect spikes or drops in trading activity.
Composite Calculation:
The three components are summed together to produce the final index value, which is then clipped to remain between -100 and +100.
Interpreting the Indicator
Indicator Value Scale:
Positive Values (0 to +100):
Suggest that bullish forces are stronger. Higher values (e.g., above +50) could indicate a strong bullish sentiment.
Negative Values (0 to -100):
Indicate bearish pressures. Lower values (e.g., below -50) may signal strong bearish conditions.
Zero Level:
The midline indicates a balanced market condition with no dominant trend.
Key Horizontal Levels:
+50 Level:
When the indicator crosses above +50, it can be interpreted as a strong bullish signal.
-50 Level:
When the indicator crosses below -50, it can be considered a strong bearish signal.
Usage Tips
Confirmation Tool:
Use the Cognitive Echo Index as an additional confirmation tool in conjunction with other technical indicators or chart patterns to make more informed trading decisions.
Parameter Adjustments:
The script uses a 14-period setting for the moving average, ATR, and volume SMA by default. Depending on your trading timeframe or asset, consider tweaking these periods for better sensitivity.
Trend Analysis:
Watch how the indicator behaves during major price moves. A divergence between the index and the price trend (e.g., price rises while the index falls) may suggest a potential reversal or a false breakout.
Risk Management:
Always incorporate sound risk management practices. Use stop losses and position sizing rules, and consider the indicator as one part of your overall trading strategy.
Customization
Adjusting the Weights:
Although the current version gives equal weight to all three components, advanced users can modify the script to apply different weights to the price, volatility, and volume components based on historical performance or specific market conditions.
Adding Additional Inputs:
Future versions could incorporate external sentiment data or other technical factors if accessible. For now, the indicator focuses on technical inputs available directly within TradingView.
By following this guide, traders can integrate the Cognitive Echo Index into their TradingView platform to gain a unique perspective on market momentum and potential turning points. Enjoy testing and refining the indicator to better suit your trading style!

nPOC Levels by Tyler### Explanation of the Pine Script
This Pine Script identifies and displays weekly naked Points of Control (nPOCs) on a TradingView chart. An nPOC represents a Point of Control (POC) from a previous week that has not been revisited by price action in subsequent weeks. These nPOCs are extended to the right as horizontal lines, indicating potential support or resistance levels.
#### Script Overview
1. **Indicator Declaration:**
```pinescript
//@version=5
indicator("Weekly nPOCs", overlay=true)
```
- The script is defined as a version 5 Pine Script.
- The `indicator` function sets the script's name ("Weekly nPOCs") and specifies that the indicator should be overlaid on the price chart (`overlay=true`).
2. **Function to Calculate POC:**
```pinescript
f_poc(_hl2, _vol) =>
var float vol_profile = na
if (na(vol_profile))
vol_profile := array.new_float(100, 0.0)
_bin_size = (high - low) / 100
for i = 0 to 99
if _hl2 >= low + i * _bin_size and _hl2 < low + (i + 1) * _bin_size
array.set(vol_profile, i, array.get(vol_profile, i) + _vol)
max_volume = array.max(vol_profile)
poc_index = array.indexof(vol_profile, max_volume)
poc_price = low + poc_index * _bin_size + _bin_size / 2
poc_price
```
- The function `f_poc` calculates the Point of Control (POC) for a given period.
- It takes two parameters: `_hl2` (the average of the high and low prices) and `_vol` (volume).
- A volume profile array (`vol_profile`) is initialized to store volume data across different price bins.
- The price range between the high and low is divided into 100 bins (`_bin_size`).
- The function iterates over each bin, accumulating the volumes for prices within each bin.
- The bin with the maximum volume is identified as the POC (`poc_price`).
3. **Variables to Store Weekly Data:**
```pinescript
var float poc = na
var float prev_poc = na
var line poc_lines = na
if na(poc_lines)
poc_lines := array.new_line(0)
```
- `poc` stores the current week's POC.
- `prev_poc` stores the previous week's POC.
- `poc_lines` is an array to store lines representing nPOCs. The array is initialized if it is `na` (not initialized).
4. **Calculate Weekly POC:**
```pinescript
is_new_week = ta.change(time('W')) != 0
if (is_new_week)
prev_poc := poc
poc := f_poc(hl2, volume)
if not na(prev_poc)
line new_poc_line = line.new(x1=bar_index, y1=prev_poc, x2=bar_index + 100, y2=prev_poc, color=color.red, width=2)
label.new(x=bar_index, y=prev_poc, text="nPOC", style=label.style_label_down, color=color.red, textcolor=color.white)
array.push(poc_lines, new_poc_line)
```
- `is_new_week` checks if the current bar is the start of a new week using the `ta.change(time('W'))` function.
- If it's a new week, the previous week's POC is stored in `prev_poc`, and the current week's POC is calculated using `f_poc`.
- If `prev_poc` is not `na`, a new line (`new_poc_line`) representing the nPOC is created, extending it to the right (for 100 bars).
- A label is created at the `prev_poc` level, marking it as "nPOC".
- The new line is added to the `poc_lines` array.
5. **Remove Old Lines:**
```pinescript
if array.size(poc_lines) > 52
line.delete(array.shift(poc_lines))

- This section ensures that only the last 52 weeks of nPOCs are kept to avoid cluttering the chart.
- If the `poc_lines` array contains more than 52 lines, the oldest line is deleted using `array.shift`.
6. **Plot the Current Week's POC as a Reference:**
```pinescript
plot(poc, title="Current Weekly POC", color=color.blue, linewidth=2, style=plot.style_line)
```
- The current week's POC is plotted as a blue line on the chart for reference.
#### Summary
This script calculates and identifies weekly Points of Control (POCs) and marks them as nPOCs if they remain untouched by subsequent price action. These nPOCs are displayed as horizontal lines extending to the right, providing traders with potential support or resistance levels. The script also manages the number of lines plotted to maintain a clear and uncluttered chart.
CCI and MACD Auto Trading Strategy with Risk/RewardOverview:
This strategy combines the Commodity Channel Index (CCI) and the Moving Average Convergence Divergence (MACD) indicators to automate trading decisions. It dynamically sets stop-loss and take-profit levels based on recent lows and highs, ensuring a risk/reward ratio of 1:1.5. This script aims to leverage trend and momentum signals while maintaining effective risk management.
Originality and Usefulness:
This script is not just a simple mashup of CCI and MACD indicators; it incorporates dynamic risk management by setting stop-loss and take-profit levels based on recent price action. This approach helps traders to:
・Identify potential trend reversals using the combination of CCI and MACD signals.
・Manage trades effectively by setting realistic stop-loss and take-profit levels based on recent market data.
・Maintain a balanced risk/reward ratio, which is essential for sustainable trading.
Indicators Used:
・CCI (Commodity Channel Index):
・Measures the deviation of the price from its average over a specified period, typically ranging from -100 to +100.
・Helps identify overbought and oversold conditions.
・MACD (Moving Average Convergence Divergence):
・Utilizes the difference between short-term and long-term moving averages to indicate trend strength and direction.
・Provides momentum signals that can be used for timing entries and exits.
How It Works:
Entry Conditions:
Long Entry:
・The MACD histogram is above zero.
・The CCI crosses above the -100 line.
Short Entry:
・The MACD histogram is below zero.
・The CCI crosses below the +100 line.
Exit Conditions:
Long Positions:
・The stop-loss is set at the recent low.
・The take-profit is set at 1.5 times the distance between the entry price and the stop-loss.
Short Positions:
・The stop-loss is set at the recent high.
・The take-profit is set at 1.5 times the distance between the entry price and the stop-loss.
Risk Management:
・The script dynamically adjusts stop-loss and take-profit levels based on recent market data, ensuring that the risk/reward ratio is maintained at 1:1.5.
・This approach helps in managing the risk effectively while aiming for consistent profits.

[Pandora] Error Function Treasure Trove - ERF/ERFI/Sigmoids+PRAISE:
At this time, I have to graciously thank the wonderful minds behind the new "Pine Profiler Mode" (PPM). Directly prior to this release, it allowed me to ascertain script performance even more. While I usually write mostly in highly optimized Pine code, PPM visually identified a few bottlenecks that would otherwise be hard to identify. Anyone who contributed to PPMs creation and testing before release... BRAVO!!! I commend all of those who assisted in it's state-of-the-art engineering and inception, well done!
BACKSTORY:
This script is specifically being released in defense of another member, an exceptionally unique PhD. It was brought to my attention that a script-mod-event occurred, regarding the publishing of a measly antiquated error function (ERF) calculation within his script. This sadly resulted in the now former member jumping ship after receiving unmannerly responses amidst his curious inquiries as to why his erf() was modded. To forbid rusty and rudimentary formulations because a mod-on-duty is temporally offended by a non-nefarious release of code, is in MY opinion an injustice to principles of perpetuating open-source code intended to benefit thousands to millions of community members. While Pine is the heart and soul of TV, the mathematical concepts contributed from the minds of members is the inspirational fuel of curiosity that powers it's pertinent reason to exist and evolve.
It is an indisputable fact that most members are not greatly skilled Pine Poets. Many members may be incapable of innovating robust function code in Pine, even if they have one or more PhDs. We ALL come from various disciplines of mathematical comprehension and education. Some mathematicians are not greatly skilled at coding, while some coders are not exceptional at math. So... what am I to do to attempt to resolve this circumstantial challenge??? Those who know me best are aware that I will always side with "the right side of history" in order to accomplish my primary self-defined missions I choose to accept. Serving as an algorithmic advocate, I felt compelled to intercede by compiling numerous error functions into elegant code of very high caliber that any and every TV member may choose to employ, so this ERROR never happens again.
After weeks of contemplation into algorithms I knew little about, I prioritized myself to resolve an unanticipated matter by creating advanced formulas of exquisitely crafted error functions refined to the best of my current abilities. My aversion for unresolved problems motivated me to eviscerate error function insufficiencies with many more rigid formulations beyond what is thought to exist. ERF needed a proper algorithmic exorcism anyways. In my furiosity, I contemplated an array of madMAXimum diplomatic demolition methods, choosing the chain saw massacre technique to slaughter dysfunctionalities I encountered on a battered ERF roadway. This resulted in prolific solutions that should assuredly endure the test of time. Poetically, as you will come to see, I am ripping the lid off of Pandora's box of error functions in this case to correct wrongs into a splendid bundle of rights for members.
INTENTION:
Error function (ERF) enthusiasts... PREPARE FOR GLORY!! The specific purpose of this script is to deprecate classic error functions with the creation of a fierce and formidable army of superior formulations, each having varying attributes of computational complexity with differing absolute error ranges in their results for multiple compute scenarios. This is NOT an indicator... It is intended to allow members to embark on endeavors to advance the profound knowledge base of this growing worldwide community of 60+ million inquisitive minds. For those of you who believe computational mathematics and statistics is near completion at its finest; I am here to inform you, this is ridiculous to ponder. We are no where near statistical excellence that can and will exist eventually. At this time, metaphorically speaking, we are merely scratching microns off of the surface of the skin of a statistical apple Isaac Newton once pondered.
THIS RELEASE:
Following weeks of pondering methodical experiments beyond the ordinary, I am liberating these wild notions of my error function explorations to the entire globe as copyleft code, not just Pine. This Pandora's basket of ERFs is being openly disclosed for the sake of the sanctity of mathematics, empirical science (not the garbage we are told by CONTROLocrats to blindly trust), revolutionary cutting edge engineering, cosmology, physics, information technology, artificial intelligence, and EVERY other mathematical branch of human knowledge being discovered over centuries. I do believe James Glaisher would favor my aims concerning ERF aspirations embracing the "Power of Pine".
The included functions are intended for TV members to use in any way they see fit. This is a gift to ALL members to foster future innovative excellence on this platform. Any attempt to moderate this code without notification of "self-evident clear and just cause" will be considered an irrevocable egregious action. The original foundational PURPOSE of establishing script moderation (I clearly remember) was primarily to maintain active vigilance over a growing community against intentional nefarious actions and/or behaviors in blatant disrespect to other author's works AND also thwart rampant copypasting bandit operations, all while accommodating balanced principles of fairness for an educational community cause via open source publishing that should support future algorithmic inventions well beyond my lifespan.
APPLICATIONS:
The related error functions are used in probability theory, statistics, and numerous and engineering scientific disciplines. Its key characteristics and applications are innumerable in computational realms. Its versatility and significance make it a fundamental tool in arenas of quantitative analysis and scientific research...
Probability Theory - Is widely used in probability theory to calculate probabilities and quantiles of the normal distribution.
Statistics - It's related to the Gaussian integral and plays a crucial role in statistics, especially in hypothesis testing and confidence interval calculations.
Physics - In physics, it arises in the study of diffusion equations, quantum mechanics, and heat conduction problems.
Engineering - Applications exist in engineering disciplines such as signal processing, control theory, and telecommunications.
Error Analysis - It's employed in error analysis and uncertainty quantification.
Numeric Approximations - Due to its lack of a closed-form expression, numerical methods are often employed to approximate erf/erfi().
AI, LLMs, & MACHINE LEARNING:
The error function (ERF) is indispensable to various AI applications, particularly due to its relation to Gaussian distributions and error analysis. It is used in Gaussian processes for regression and classification, probabilistic inference for Bayesian networks, soft margin computation in SVMs, neural networks involving Gaussian activation functions or noise, and clustering algorithms like Gaussian Mixture Models. Improved ERF approximations can enhance precision in these applications, reduce computational complexity, handle outliers and noise better, and improve optimization and convergence, possibly leading to more accurate, efficient, and robust AI systems.
BONUS ALGORITHMS:
While ERFs are versatile, its opposite also exists in the form of inverse error functions (ERFIs). I have also included a modified form of the inverse fisher transform along side MY sigmoid (sigmyod). I am uncertain what sigmyod() may be used for, but it's a culmination of my examinations deep into "sigmoid domains", something I am fascinated by. Whatever implications it may possess, I am unveiling it along with it's cousin functions. For curious minds, this quality of composition seen here is ideally what underlies what I would term "Pandora functionality" that empowers my Pandora indication. I go through hordes of formulations, testing, and inspection to find what appears to be the most beneficial logical/mathematical equation to apply...
SCRIPT OPERATION:
To showcase the characteristics and performance of my ERF/ERFI formulations, I devised a multi-modal script. By using bar_index , I generated a broad sequence of numeric values to input into the first ERF/ERFI parameter. These sequences allow you to inspect the contours of the error function's outputs for both ERF and ERFI. When combined with compute-intensive precision functions (CIPFs), the polynomial function output values can be subtracted from my CIPFs to obtain results of absolute error, displaying the accuracy of the many polynomial estimation functions I tuned in testing for Pine's float environment.
A host of numeric input settings are wildly adjustable to inspect values/curvatures across the range of numeric input sequences. Very large numbers, such as Divisor:100,000,100/Offset:200,000,000 for ERF modes or... Divisor:100,000,100/Offset:100,000,000 for ERFI modes, will display miniscule output values calculated from input values in close proximity to 0.0 for the various estimates, similar to a microscope. ERFI approximations very near in proximity to +/-1.0 will always yield large deviations of absolute error. Dragging/zooming your chart or using the Offset input will aid with visually clipping off those ERFI extremes where float precision functions cannot suffice.
NOTICE:
perf() and perfi() are intended for precision computation (as good as it basically gets) in a float environment. However, they are CPU intensive (especially perfi). I wouldn't recommend these being used in ANY Pine script unless it's an "absolute necessity" to do so to accomplish your goal. I only built them to obtain "absolute error curvatures" of the error functions for the polynomial approximations. These are visible in the accuracy modes in the indicator Settings.

RCI(_rciLength, _source, _interval)
You will see me using this a lot. DEFINITELY my favorite oscillator to utilize for SO many different things from
timing entries/exits to determining trends.Calculation of this indicator based on Spearmans Correlation.
Parameters:
_rciLength (int) : (int)
Amount of bars back to use in RCI calculations.
_source (float) : (float)
Source to use in RCI calculations (can use ANY source series. Ie, open,close,high,low,etc).
_interval (int) : (int)
Optional (if parameter not included, it defaults to 3). RCI calculation groups bars by this amount and then will.
rank these groups of bars.
Returns: (float)
Returns a single RCI value that will oscillates between -100 and +100.
RCIAVG(_rciSMAlen, _source, _interval, firstLength, lastLength)
20 RCI's are averaged together to get this RCI Avg (Rank Correlation Index Average). Each RCI (of the 20 total RCI)
has a progressively LARGER Lookback Length. Rather than having ALL of the RCI Lengths be individually adjustable (because of too many inputs),
I have made the FIRST Length used (smallest Length value in the set) and the LAST Length used (largest length value in the set) be adjustable
and all other 18 Lengths are equally spread out between the 'firstLength' and the 'lastLength'.
Parameters:
_rciSMAlen (int) : (int)
Unlike the Single RCI Function, this function smooths out the end result using an SMA with a length value that is this parameter.
_source (float) : (float)
Source to use in RCI calculations (can use ANY source series. Ie, open,close,high,low,etc).
_interval (int) : (int)
Optional (if parameter not included, it defaults to 3). Within the RCI calculation, bars next to each other are grouped together
and then these groups are Ranked against each other. This parameter is the number of adjacent bars that are grouped together.
firstLength (int) : (int)
Optional (if parameter is not included when the function is called on in the script, then it defaults to 200).
This parameter is the Lookback Length for the 1st RCI used (so the SMALLEST Length used) in the RCI Avg.
lastLength (int) : (int)
Optional (if parameter is not included when the function is called on in the script, then it defaults to 2500).
This parameter is the Lookback Length for the 20th(the LAST) RCI used (so the LARGEST Length used) in the RCI Avg.
***** BEWARE ***** The 'lastLength' must be less than (or possibly equal to) 5000 because Tradingview has capped it at 5000, causing an error.
***** BEWARE ***** If the script gives a compiler "time out" error then the 'lastLength' must be lowered until it no longer times out when compiling.
Returns: (float)
Returns a single RCI value that is the Avg of many RCI values that will oscillate between -100 and +100.
PercentChange(_startingValue, _endingValue)
This is a quick function to calculate how much % change has occurred between the '_startingValue' and the '_endingValue'
that you input into the function.
Parameters:
_startingValue (float) : (float)
The source value to START the % change calculation from.
_endingValue (float) : (float)
The source value to END the % change caluclation from.
Returns: Returns a single output being the % value between 0-100 (with trailing numbers behind a decimal). If you want only
a certain amount of numbers behind the decimal, this function needs to be put within a formatting function to do so.
Rescale(_source, _oldMin, _oldMax, _newMin, _newMax)
Rescales series with a known '_oldMin' & '_oldMax'. Use this when the scale of the '_source' to
rescale is known (bounded).
Parameters:
_source (float) : (float)
Source to be normalized.
_oldMin (int) : (float)
The known minimum of the '_source'.
_oldMax (int) : (float)
The known maximum of the '_source'.
_newMin (int) : (float)
What you want the NEW minimum of the '_source' to be.
_newMax (int) : (float)
What you want the NEW maximum of the '_source' to be.
Returns: Outputs your previously bounded '_source', but now the value will only move between the '_newMin' and '_newMax'
values you set in the variables.
Normalize_Historical(_source, _minimumLvl, _maximumLvl)
Normalizes '_source' that has a previously unknown min/max(unbounded) determining the max & min of the '_source'
FROM THE ENTIRE CHARTS HISTORY. ]
Parameters:
_source (float) : (float)
Source to be normalized.
_minimumLvl (int) : (float)
The Lower Boundary Level.
_maximumLvl (int) : (float)
The Upper Boundary Level.
Returns: Returns your same '_source', but now the value will MOSTLY stay between the minimum and maximum values you set in the
'_minimumLvl' and '_maximumLvl' variables (ie. if the source you input is an RSI...the output is the same RSI value but
instead of moving between 0-100 it will move between the maxand min you set).
Normailize_Local(_source, _length, _minimumLvl, _maximumLvl)
Normalizes series with previously unknown min/max(unbounded). Much like the Normalize_Historical function above this one,
but rather than using the Highest/Lowest Values within the ENTIRE charts history, this on looks for the Highest/Lowest
values of '_source' within the last ___ bars (set by user as/in the '_length' parameter. ]
Parameters:
_source (float) : (float)
Source to be normalized.
_length (int) : (float)
The amount of bars to look back to determine the highest/lowest '_source' value.
_minimumLvl (int) : (float)
The Lower Boundary Level.
_maximumLvl (int) : (float)
The Upper Boundary Level.
Returns: Returns a single output variable being the previously unbounded '_source' that is now normalized and bound between
the values used for '_minimumLvl'/'_maximumLvl' of the '_source' within the user defined lookback period.
Donchian Quest Research// =================================
Trend following strategy.
// =================================
Strategy uses two channels. One channel - for opening trades. Second channel - for closing.
Channel is similar to Donchian channel, but uses Close prices (not High/Low). That helps don't react to wicks of volatile candles (“stop hunting”). In most cases openings occur earlier than in Donchian channel. Closings occur only for real breakout.
// =================================
Strategy waits for beginning of trend - when price breakout of channel. Default length of both channels = 50 candles.
Conditions of trading:
- Open Long: If last Close = max Close for 50 closes.
- Close Long: If last Close = min Close for 50 closes.
- Open Short: If last Close = min Close for 50 closes.
- Close Short: If last Close = max Close for 50 closes.
// =================================
Color of lines:
- black - channel for opening trade.
- red - channel for closing trade.
- yellow - entry price.
- fuchsia - stoploss and breakeven.
- vertical green - go Long.
- vertical red - go Short.
- vertical gray - close in end, don't trade anymore.
// =================================
Order size calculated with ATR and volatility.
You can't trade 1 contract in BTC and 1 contract in XRP - for example. They have different price and volatility, so 1 contract BTC not equal 1 contract XRP.
Script uses universal calculation for every market. It is based on:
- Risk - USD sum you ready to loss in one trade. It calculated as percent of Equity.
- ATR indicator - measurement of volatility.
With default setting your stoploss = 0.5 percent of equity:
- If initial capital is 1000 USD and used parameter "Permit stop" - loss will be 5 USD (0.5 % of equity).
- If your Equity rises to 2000 USD and used parameter "Permit stop"- loss will be 10 USD (0.5 % of Equity).
// =================================
This Risk works only if you enable “Permit stop” parameter in Settings.
If this parameter disabled - strategy works as reversal strategy:
⁃ If close Long - channel border works as stoploss and momentarily go Short.
⁃ If close Short - channel border works as stoploss and momentarily go Long.
Channel borders changed dynamically. So sometime your loss will be greater than ‘Risk %’. Sometime - less than ‘Risk %’.
If this parameter enabled - maximum loss always equal to 'Risk %'. This parameter also include breakeven: if profit % = Risk %, then move stoploss to entry price.
// =================================
Like all trend following strategies - it works only in trend conditions. If no trend - slowly bleeding. There is no special additional indicator to filter trend/notrend. You need to trade every signal of strategy.
Strategy gives many losses:
⁃ 30 % of trades will close with profit.
⁃ 70 % of trades will close with loss.
⁃ But profit from 30% will be much greater than loss from 70 %.
Your task - patiently wait for it and don't use risky setting for position sizing.
// =================================
Recommended timeframe - Daily.
// =================================
Trend can vary in lengths. Selecting length of channels determine which trend you will be hunting:
⁃ 20/10 - from several days to several weeks.
⁃ 20/20 or 50/20 - from several weeks to several months.
⁃ 50/50 or 100/50 or 100/100 - from several months to several years.
// =================================
Inputs (Settings):
- Length: length of channel for trade opening/closing. You can choose 20/10, 20/20, 50/20, 50/50, 100/50, 100/100. Default value: 50/50.
- Permit Long / Permit short: Longs are most profitable for this strategy. You can disable Shorts and enable Longs only. Default value: permit all directions.
- Risk % of Equity: for position sizing used Equity percent. Don't use values greater than 5 % - it's risky. Default value: 0.5%.
⁃ ATR multiplier: this multiplier moves stoploss up or down. Big multiplier = small size of order, small profit, stoploss far from entry, low chance of stoploss. Small multiplier = big size of order, big profit, stop near entry, high chance of stoploss. Default value: 2.
- ATR length: number of candles to calculate ATR indicator. It used for order size and stoploss. Default value: 20.
- Close in end - to close active trade in the end (and don't trade anymore) or leave it open. You can see difference in Strategy Tester. Default value: don’t close.
- Permit stop: use stop or go reversal. Default value: without stop, reversal strategy.
// =================================
Properties (Settings):
- Initial capital - 1000 USD.
- Script don't uses 'Order size' - you need to change 'Risk %' in Inputs instead.
- Script don't uses 'Pyramiding'.
- 'Commission' 0.055 % and 'Slippage' 0 - this parameters are for crypto exchanges with perpetual contracts (for example Bybit). If use on other markets - set it accordingly to your exchange parameters.
// =================================
Big dataset used for chart - 'BITCOIN ALL TIME HISTORY INDEX'. It gives enough trades to understand logic of script. It have several good trends.
// =================================
