Yakloft Support and Resistance LevelsYakloft Support and Resistance Levels Indicator
The Yakloft Support and Resistance Levels indicator is a powerful tool designed to help traders identify key support and resistance levels on a price chart. By leveraging advanced pivot point calculations and customizable settings, this indicator provides clear visual cues for potential price reversals and market trends.
Key Features
Automatic Support and Resistance Levels:
Dynamic Calculation: The indicator automatically identifies and plots significant support and resistance levels based on pivot highs and lows.
Customizable Strength: Adjust the S/R Strength parameter to filter levels according to their significance. Higher values display fewer but more robust levels.
Zones Around Levels:
Support and Resistance Zones: Create zones around each support and resistance level to highlight areas of interest rather than exact price points.
High/Low Zones: Plot zones around the highest and lowest price levels within a specified period, providing additional context for potential breakouts or reversals.
Zone Width Adjustment: Customize the width of the zones using the Zone Width % parameter, calculated as a percentage of the price range over the last 300 bars.
Line Styles and Fills:
Customizable Appearance: Modify line colors, styles (Solid, Dotted, Dashed), and widths to match your chart preferences.
Line Fills: Enhance visual clarity by filling zones with semi-transparent colors, making it easier to distinguish between support and resistance areas.
Dynamic Line Management:
Automatic Line Removal: To keep your chart uncluttered, the indicator removes a support or resistance line after the price crosses it twice. This feature helps you focus on the most relevant and current levels.
Expandable Lines:
Line Extension: Choose to extend lines both forward and backward in time with the Expand S/R Lines option, providing a comprehensive view of historical support and resistance.
How It Works
The indicator analyzes price data to identify pivot highs and lows over a specified lookback period. These pivot points are potential areas where the price may reverse or experience significant support or resistance. By filtering these points based on the S/R Strength parameter, the indicator ensures that only the most significant levels are displayed.
Once the levels are identified:
Support Levels: Plotted when the price shows potential to stop falling and possibly start rising.
Resistance Levels: Plotted when the price may stop rising and potentially start falling.
The indicator enhances these levels by:
Adding Zones: By creating a buffer around each level, traders can see areas where the price might interact with support or resistance, rather than focusing on a single price point.
Line Fills: The zones are filled with a semi-transparent color corresponding to support or resistance, improving visual distinction.
Input Parameters
Enable Support & Resistance: Toggle the entire indicator on or off.
Support Color: Choose the color for support lines and fills.
Resistance Color: Choose the color for resistance lines and fills.
S/R Strength: Set the sensitivity of level detection. Higher values result in fewer, more significant levels.
Line Style: Select the style of the support and resistance lines (Solid, Dotted, Dashed).
S/R Line Width: Adjust the thickness of the support and resistance lines.
Enable Zones: Toggle the display of zones around each level.
Enable High/Low Zones: Toggle the display of zones around the highest and lowest price levels.
Zone Width %: Define the width of the zones as a percentage of the price range over the last 300 bars.
Expand S/R Lines: Choose whether to extend the lines across the entire chart or limit them to recent data.
Using the Indicator
Identifying Key Levels:
Use the plotted support and resistance levels to identify potential entry and exit points.
Pay attention to the zones, as they represent areas where the price is more likely to react.
Monitoring Price Interaction:
Observe how the price behaves around the support and resistance levels.
The automatic removal of lines after two crossings helps focus on active levels.
Customizing for Clarity:
Adjust the visual settings to match your trading style and improve chart readability.
Experiment with the S/R Strength and Zone Width % to fine-tune the indicator to different market conditions.
Best Practices
Combine with Other Analysis Tools:
Use the indicator alongside other technical analysis tools like trend lines, moving averages, and oscillators for a more comprehensive market view.
Adjust for Different Timeframes:
The indicator works on various timeframes. Adjust the parameters when switching between short-term and long-term charts to maintain effectiveness.
Stay Updated with Market Conditions:
Market volatility can affect the significance of support and resistance levels. Regularly adjust the S/R Strength parameter to align with current market dynamics.
Limitations
Not a Standalone Solution:
While the indicator provides valuable insights, it should not be used in isolation. Always consider broader market analysis and risk management practices.
Historical Data Dependency:
The accuracy of the levels depends on the availability of sufficient historical data. Ensure your chart includes enough data for the indicator to perform effectively.

Silen's EMA AreasAre you tired of reading candles? 🧨 Do you want to bring more meaning to your chart? 🧹
Then this is the script for you!
This script does:
- Add several meaningfully pre-configured EMA lines to your chart - up to EMA 300
- Colors the areas between EMA lines in 3d colors - green and red
- The Smaller the EMA, the firmer the color
- Highlights the EMA 300 in a golden color
What is the meaning of this?
Let me introduce a new word to you: EMA FOLDING .
Yes, you heard right. With this indicator you can see in 3D how EMA lines are folding above and below each other, indicating severe mood swings in the chart.
This helps you keep track of what your instrument is actually doing while it enables you to cancel out the noise and messyness of ordinary candles which can be quite random and hard to read.
Once an EMA is fully positive or negatively folded (all ema lines are green and above each other from largest EMA to smallest EMA and vice versa for negatively folded) you can be sure that you are in a Trend or certain mood (for higher timeframes, from 15mins on).
I don't ever want to read any chart without having this indicator on. Whenever I present charts to anybody I use this indicator - and the feedback is insanely positive. People tend to read and understand charts much better with this indicator than just staring at candles.
Why is this indicator different to other EMA indicators and should thereby not be deleted by the TradingView Team due to redundance with other EMA indicators?
- This is not a simple indicator for EMAs
- Rather, this is an indicator to better and easier read the whole chart
- You can detect mood swings very easily which is very hard to do with a normal EMA indicator
- I haven't found any EMA indicator on TradingView that does this job so i sincerely believe it is extremely unique
- I sincerely believe it can help people get a much better understanding of charts without actualy getting into details of EMA's or even needing to know what an EMA is.
This indicator isn't intended for trading purposes, rather it is intended to give you a better and easier understanding of the chart. Of course - you can also use it for your trading but like I said, that is not the primary intended purpose.
This indicator comes pre-configured with quite optimal values (in my opinion) but of course can be fully customized. 🧮

MMRI Chart (Primary)The **Mannarino Market Risk Indicator (MMRI)** is a financial risk measurement tool created by financial strategist Gregory Mannarino. It’s designed to assess the risk level in the stock market and economy based on current bond market conditions and the strength of the U.S. dollar. The MMRI considers factors like the U.S. 10-Year Treasury Yield and the Dollar Index (DXY), which indicate investor confidence in government debt and the dollar's purchasing power, respectively.
The formula for MMRI uses the 10-Year Treasury Yield multiplied by the Dollar Index, divided by a constant (1.61) to normalize the risk measure. A higher MMRI score suggests increased market risk, while a lower score indicates more stability. Mannarino has set certain thresholds to interpret the MMRI score:
- **Below 100**: Low risk.
- **100–200**: Moderate risk.
- **200–300**: High risk.
- **Above 300**: Extreme risk, indicating market instability and potential downturns.
This tool aims to provide insight into economic conditions that may affect asset classes like stocks, bonds, and precious metals. Mannarino often updates MMRI scores and risk analyses in his public market updates.
Modified Mannarino Market Risk Indicator MMMRI MMRIModified Mannarino Market Risk Indicator MMMRI was developed by "Nobody Special Finance" as an enhancement to the original MMRI developed by Gregory Mannarino. The original and modified version were created as a way to gauge current level of risk in the market. This published indicator includes both versions along with ability to customize the symbols, denominators, and ratio factors that are used within their formulas. Additional options have been included to colorize the candles, plot, and level fills, as well as the option to show or hide a table containing the realtime values for both versions, along with the current dollar strength and 10Y yield.
Levels of market risk are denoted by dashed lines which represent the following levels: 0-50 slight risk, 50-100 low risk, 100-200 moderate risk, 200-300 high risk, 300+ extreme risk. The plot displays whichever of the following two formulas has been selected in the indicator settings, the default choice has been set to MMMRI:
MMRI = (USD Strength * USD Interest Rate) / 1.61
MMMRI = (Debt / GDP) * (USD Strength * USD Interest Rate) / 1.61

TOTAL:(RSI+TSI)TOTAL:(RSI+TSI)
This indicator collects instant data of RSI and TSI oscillators. RSI moves between (0) and (100) values as a moving line, while TSI moves between (-100) and (+100) values as two moving lines.
The top value of the sum of these values is graphically;
It takes the total value (+300) from RSI (+100), TSI (+100) and (+100).
The lowest value of the sum of these values is graphically;
It takes the value (-200) from the RSI (0), (-100) and (-100) from the TSI.
In case this indicator approaches (+300) graphically; It can be seen that price candlesticks mostly move upwards. This may not always give accurate results. Past incompatibilities can affect this situation.
In case this indicator approaches (-200) graphically; It can be seen that price candlesticks mostly move downwards. This may not always give accurate results. Past incompatibilities can affect this situation.
The graphical movements and numerical values created by this indicator do not give precise results for price candles.
Institutional Price LevelsInstitutional price levels
(AKA round numbers, Perfect Price Levels-PPL)
Institutional Price Levels (IPL) script shows the closest round numbers from the current price.
Some traders uses round numbers as a support resistance levels.
For example: 0.000 0.500 1.000 levels. Additional levels are 0.200 0.800.
So I made a simple script that shows round numbers and the quarter levels(Not exactly quarter but minor levels)
Quarter level option is planned on next update.
Default range is 300 pips and you can extend until 500 pips range.
Time range is extandable to the right and left side. You can just extend the line by increasing the bar numbers.
Inputs:
Show levels - Can show and hide all levels. Level colors are optional.
Show quarter - Can show and hide minor levels which is 0.800 0.200 levels. Colors are optional
Show more levels - Can show and hide more levels. Default range is 300 pips. Additional 200 pips range is optional.
Extend right bars - Can set length of levels to the right side.
Extend left bars - Can set length of levels to the left side.
Thank you.

Trend FollowerHello Traders!
While analysing the charts, one of the biggest problem is to see if there is trend or not, or is it in a congestion zone/area? While thinking about it, I found the idea to analyse moving averages in channel and their momentum according to channel width.
How it calculates and works?
On each bar it creates a channel by highest/lowest point of a MA. highest point is upper point and lowest point is lower point of the MA channel,
It gets highest and lowest point of last 300 bars, (say Price Channel )
If the width of MA channel is greater than certain rate of price channel then it decides there is trend
After it decided there is trend, it calculates the rate between channel and MA. Bigger result means stronger trend.
According to rate of MA channel and the price channel , bar color becomes lighter/darker. so when you look at the bar color you can see the trend strength.
Short explanation on the chart:
Also by changing channel or size other options (such MA length etc) you can see congestion zones/areas:
Another one, about trend direction and its strength:
Options:
You can choose following MA types as source: EMA, SMA , RMA, WMA , VWMA
"Period to Check Trend" is the period to create MA channel. Bigger period cause more sensitivity.
MA Period is the Length of the MA that will be checked
"Trend Channel Rate %" is rate of price channel . Price channel created by using highest/lowest of last 300 bars. I did this to make the script works on all time frames correctly.
"Use Linear Regression" is used to get rid of noise. it may cause 1-2 bars latency. (I use it)
The idea was created by LonesomeTheBlue.

BEST Risk to Reward UtilityHello Traders
This is a proof of concept and a cool pinescript utility
It displays a risk to reward division as a fractional value.
For example
Risk: 300
Reward: 600
This will be displayed as 1/2 as we can earn 2 units for a potential loss of 1 unit
(600/300 = 2) for those wondering the NASA level mathematics behind :)
Best regards
Dave

Combo Strategy 123 Reversal & CCI This is combo strategies for get a cumulative signal.
First strategy
This System was created from the Book "How I Tripled My Money In The
Futures Market" by Ulf Jensen, Page 183. This is reverse type of strategies.
The strategy buys at market, if close price is higher than the previous close
during 2 days and the meaning of 9-days Stochastic Slow Oscillator is lower than 50.
The strategy sells at market, if close price is lower than the previous close price
during 2 days and the meaning of 9-days Stochastic Fast Oscillator is higher than 50.
Second strategy
The Commodity Channel Index (CCI) is best used with markets that display cyclical or
seasonal characteristics, and is formulated to detect the beginning and ending of these
cycles by incorporating a moving average together with a divisor that reflects both possible
and actual trading ranges. The final index measures the deviation from normal, which indicates
major changes in market trend.
To put it simply, the Commodity Channel Index (CCI) value shows how the instrument is trading
relative to its mean (average) price. When the CCI value is high, it means that the prices are
high compared to the average price; when the CCI value is down, it means that the prices are low
compared to the average price. The CCI value usually does not fall outside the -300 to 300 range
and, in fact, is usually in the -100 to 100 range.

Volume Monitor In Quote Currency [LucF]Volume Monitor calculates the daily volume in the quote currency and displays a warning sign when that volume is below or above user-defined low and high limits.
For those not familiar with the term, quote currency refers to the second part of a trading pair such as EUR/USD or BNB/BTC.
One use for the indicator is for cryptos, where one who does not wish to trade low volume markets can rely on the indicator to flag them. The default values of 300 and 1000 for the low and high limits mean that when looking at XXXBTC charts, a yellow dot will appear on the chart when the daily volume of the market is lower than 300 BTC, and a green dot will appear when it is higher than 1000 BTC.
If your chart settings are configured to show indicator values, the first value shown by the indicator is the daily volume in the quote currency. It will be green or red, depending on the day’s price action. In order to show the value, an invisible plot must be printed on the chart and for it not to wreak havoc on the price, the indicator’s scale should be set to “No scale” (the default) or to a different one than the price’s scale.
PpSignal Chandelier StopThere are few indicators for MT4 which draw trailing stop line. I prefer to use Chandelier Stops. I believe that with good money management this is one of the best tools to follow a trend.
About ATR trailing stop loss (Chandelier Stops)
When you catch trend you can profit from most of the move. The good thing about ATR is that you have a stop loss level in place. When there is a close on the other side of ATR, it is a signal to close. No second guessing.
Best time frame for ATR trailing stop loss
I strongly recommend time frames such as 30m or larger. On lower time frames like 5m there is too much algo trading. I trade with ATR on 1h or 4h charts.
Parameters for trailing stop
Depends on pair or instrument. In most cases standard parameters will be fine. If I change anything then it is usually a Kv parameter. Standard is 3.5 and I tend to make it bigger like 3.7 or 4.0. In most cases it is around 3.7.

Best pairs to trade with ATR trailing stop loss
Trailing stop loss works best in trending markets. That is why you should check pair if it tends to move strong or to move in range. It is not the secret that yen pairs line to move strongly. If you are looking for solid trends, you can’t go wrong with GBPJPY or EURJPY.

Multi-Functional Fisher Transform MTF with MACDL TRIGGERWhat this indicator gives you is a true signal when price is exhausted and ready for a fast turnaround. Fisher Transform is set for multi-time frame and also allows the user to change the length. This way a user can compare two or more time spans and lengths to look for these MACDL divergent triggers after a Fisher exhaustion. With so many indicators, it's probably best to merge these indicators and change the Fisher and Trigger colors so you can still have a look at price action (remember to scale right after merger). I've noticed from time to time when you have Fisher 34 100 and 300 up and running on two different time frames such as 5 and 15 min charts, with MACDL triggers on the 100/300 or 34/100 you get a high probability trade trigger. However, there are rare exceptions such as when price moves in a parabolic state up or down for a long period where this indication does not work. Ideally this indicator works best in a sideways market or slow rising/descending moving market.

MACD StrategyOverview
The "MACD Strategy" is a straightforward trading strategy tested for BTCUSDT Futures on the 1-minute timeframe, leveraging the Moving Average Convergence Divergence (MACD) indicator to identify momentum-based buy and sell opportunities. Developed with input from expert trading analyst insights, this strategy combines technical precision with risk management, making it suitable for traders of all levels on platforms like TradingView. It focuses on capturing trend reversals and momentum shifts, with clear visual cues and automated alerts for seamless integration with trading bots (e.g., Bitget webhooks).
#### How It Works
This strategy uses the MACD indicator to generate trading signals based on momentum and trend direction:
- **Buy Signal**: Triggered when the MACD line crosses above the signal line, and the MACD histogram turns positive (above zero). This suggests increasing bullish momentum.
- **Sell Signal**: Triggered when the MACD line crosses below the signal line, and the MACD histogram turns negative (below zero), indicating growing bearish momentum.
Once a signal is detected, the strategy opens a position (long for buy, short for sell) with a position size calculated based on your risk tolerance. It includes a stop-loss to limit losses and a take-profit to lock in gains, both dynamically adjusted using the Average True Range (ATR) for adaptability to market volatility.
#### Key Features
- **MACD-Based Signals**: Relies solely on MACD for entry points, plotted in a separate pane for clear momentum analysis.
- **Risk Management**: Automatically calculates position size based on a percentage of your account balance and sets stop-loss and take-profit levels using ATR multipliers and a risk:reward ratio.
- **Visual Feedback**: Plots entry, stop-loss, and take-profit lines on the chart with labeled markers for easy tracking.
- **Alerts**: Includes Bitget webhook-compatible alerts for automated trading, notifying you of buy and sell signals in real-time.
#### Input Parameters
- **Account Balance**: Default 10000 – Set your initial trading capital to determine position sizing.
- **MACD Fast Length**: Default 12 – The short-term EMA period for MACD sensitivity.
- **MACD Slow Length**: Default 26 – The long-term EMA period for MACD calculation.
- **MACD Signal Length**: Default 9 – The smoothing period for the signal line.
- **Risk Per Trade (%)**: Default 3.0 – The percentage of your account balance risked per trade (e.g., 3% of 10000 = 300).
- **Risk:Reward Ratio**: Default 3.0 – The ratio of potential profit to risk (e.g., 3:1 means risking 1 to gain 3).
- **SL Multiplier**: Default 1.0 – Multiplies ATR to set the stop-loss distance (e.g., 1.0 x ATR).
- **TP Multiplier**: Default 3.0 – Multiplies ATR to set the take-profit distance, adjusted by the risk:reward ratio.
- **Line Length (bars)**: Default 25 – Duration in bars for displaying trade lines on the chart.
- **Label Position**: Default 'left' – Position of text labels (left or right) relative to trade lines.
- **ATR Period**: Default 14 – The number of periods for calculating ATR to measure volatility.
#### How to Use
1. **Add to Chart**: Load the "MACD Strategy" as a strategy and the "MACD Indicator" as a separate indicator on your TradingView chart (recommended for BTCUSDT Futures on the 1-minute timeframe).
2. **Customize Settings**: Adjust the input parameters based on your risk tolerance and market conditions. For BTCUSDT Futures, consider reducing `Risk Per Trade (%)` during high volatility (e.g., 1%) or increasing `SL Multiplier` for wider stops.
3. **Visual Analysis**: Watch the main chart for trade entry lines (green for buy, red for sell), stop-loss (red), and take-profit (green) lines with labels. Use the MACD pane below to confirm momentum shifts.
4. **Set Alerts**: Create alerts in TradingView for "Buy Signal" and "Sell Signal" to automate trades via Bitget webhooks.
5. **Backtest and Optimize**: Test the strategy on historical BTCUSDT Futures 1-minute data to fine-tune parameters. The short timeframe requires quick execution, so monitor closely for slippage or latency.
#### Tips for Success
- **Market Conditions**: This strategy performs best in trending markets on the 1-minute timeframe. Avoid choppy conditions where MACD crossovers may produce false signals.
- **Risk Management**: Start with the default 3% risk per trade and adjust downward (e.g., 1%) during volatile periods like BTCUSDT news events. The 3:1 risk:reward ratio targets consistent profitability.
- **Timeframe**: Optimized for 1-minute charts; switch to 5-minute or 15-minute for less noise if needed.
- **Confirmation**: Cross-check MACD signals with price action or support/resistance levels for higher accuracy on BTCUSDT Futures.
#### Limitations
- This strategy relies solely on MACD, so it may lag in fast-moving or sideways markets. Consider adding a secondary filter (e.g., RSI) if needed.
- Stop-loss and take-profit are ATR-based and may need adjustment for BTCUSDT Futures’ high volatility, especially during leverage trading.
#### Conclusion
The "MACD Strategy" offers a simple yet effective way to trade momentum shifts using the MACD indicator, tested for BTCUSDT Futures on the 1-minute timeframe, with robust risk management and visual tools. Whether you’re scalping crypto futures or exploring short-term trends, this strategy provides a solid foundation for automated or manual trading.

Donchian Squeeze Oscillator# Donchian Squeeze Oscillator (DSO) - User Guide
## Overview
The Donchian Squeeze Oscillator is a technical indicator designed to identify periods of low volatility (squeeze) and high volatility (expansion) in financial markets by measuring the distance between Donchian Channel bands. The indicator normalizes this measurement to a 0-100 scale, making it easy to interpret across different timeframes and instruments.
## How It Works
The DSO calculates the width of Donchian Channels as a percentage of the middle line, smooths this data, and then normalizes it using historical highs and lows over a specified lookback period. The result is inverted so that:
- **High values (80+)** = Narrow channels = Low volatility = Squeeze
- **Low values (20-)** = Wide channels = High volatility = Expansion
## Key Parameters
### Core Settings
- **Donchian Channel Period (20)**: The number of bars used to calculate the highest high and lowest low for the Donchian Channels
- **Smoothing Period (5)**: Applies moving average smoothing to reduce noise in the oscillator
- **Normalization Lookback (200)**: Historical period used to normalize the oscillator between 0-100
### Threshold Levels
- **Over Squeeze (80)**: Values above this level indicate strong squeeze conditions
- **Over Expansion (20)**: Values below this level indicate strong expansion conditions
## Reading the Indicator
### Color Coding
- **Red Line**: Squeeze condition (above 80 threshold) - Markets are consolidating
- **Orange Line**: Neutral/trending condition with upward momentum
- **Green Line**: Expansion condition or downward momentum
### Visual Elements
- **Red Dashed Line (80)**: Squeeze threshold - potential breakout zone
- **Gray Dotted Line (50)**: Middle line - neutral zone
- **Green Dashed Line (20)**: Expansion threshold - high volatility zone
- **Red Background**: Highlights active squeeze periods
## Trading Applications
### 1. Breakout Trading
- **Setup**: Wait for DSO to reach 80+ (squeeze zone)
- **Entry**: Look for breakouts when DSO starts declining from squeeze levels
- **Logic**: Prolonged low volatility often precedes significant price movements
### 2. Volatility Cycle Trading
- **Squeeze Phase**: DSO > 80 - Prepare for potential breakout
- **Breakout Phase**: DSO declining from 80 - Trade the direction of breakout
- **Expansion Phase**: DSO < 20 - Expect trend continuation or reversal
### 3. Trend Confirmation
- **Orange Color**: Suggests bullish momentum during expansion
- **Green Color**: Suggests bearish momentum or consolidation
- Use in conjunction with price action for trend confirmation
## Best Practices
### Timeframe Selection
- **Higher Timeframes (Daily, 4H)**: More reliable signals, fewer false breakouts
- **Lower Timeframes (1H, 15M)**: More frequent signals but higher noise
- **Multi-timeframe Analysis**: Confirm squeeze on higher TF, enter on lower TF
### Parameter Optimization
- **Volatile Markets**: Increase Donchian period (25-30) and smoothing (7-10)
- **Range-bound Markets**: Decrease Donchian period (15-20) for more sensitivity
- **Trending Markets**: Use longer normalization lookback (300-400)
### Signal Confirmation
Always combine DSO signals with:
- **Price Action**: Support/resistance levels, chart patterns
- **Volume**: Confirm breakouts with increasing volume
- **Other Indicators**: RSI, MACD, or momentum oscillators
## Alert System
The indicator includes built-in alerts for:
- **Squeeze Started**: When DSO crosses above the squeeze threshold
- **Expansion Started**: When DSO crosses below the expansion threshold
## Common Pitfalls to Avoid
1. **False Breakouts**: Don't trade every squeeze - wait for confirmation
2. **Parameter Over-optimization**: Stick to default settings initially
3. **Ignoring Market Context**: Consider overall market conditions and news
4. **Single Indicator Reliance**: Always use additional confirmation tools
## Advanced Tips
- Monitor squeeze duration - longer squeezes often lead to bigger moves
- Look for squeeze patterns at key support/resistance levels
- Use DSO divergences with price for potential reversal signals
- Combine with Bollinger Band squeezes for enhanced accuracy
## Conclusion
The Donchian Squeeze Oscillator is a powerful tool for identifying volatility cycles and potential breakout opportunities. Like all technical indicators, it should be used as part of a comprehensive trading strategy rather than as a standalone signal generator. Practice with the indicator on historical data before implementing it in live trading to understand its behavior in different market conditions.
