Candle #40 Sentinel – A Simple Visual Marker for Chart ContextWhat it is:
Candle #40 Sentinel is a minimalistic visual aid that marks the candle from exactly 40 bars ago on your chart. It creates a clear reference point to help you assess whether your trendline is based on enough price history to be considered reliable.
What it does:
Draws a frame marker on the candle 40 bars before the current one.
Gives you an instant sense of how much historical data your trendline or setup is working with.
Helps prevent decisions based on short-term patterns with little statistical weight.
Why use it:
Context is key: Many trendlines look strong but are based on too few candles to be meaningful. This tool helps you visually gauge that.
Stay disciplined: Only act on setups with enough data behind them.
Save time: No need to count candles manually – the chart tells you instantly.
Who it's for:
Traders who use trendlines and want a quick way to assess data depth.
Anyone looking to bring more structure and discipline to visual chart analysis.
Note:
This tool does not generate signals, does not calculate trends, and uses no classic indicators. It simply draws a reference at the 40th candle back – giving you a visual anchor point to work with.
Candle #40 Sentinel – Let your setups breathe before you trust them.
Because trendlines drawn over 10 candles aren’t trendlines – they’re guesses.

[RenkoCore] PublicWhen it comes the Renko chart, we all know it has its advantages & disadvantages compared to the candle-stick chart. My aim of this was to alleviate some of the disadvantages by providing some sort of structure on Renko chart. These set of tools may hopefully help your trading journey on Renko chart.
Helpful tips:
a) Enable wicks on your Renko settings, this indicator needs wicks to work.
b) Choose correct size (I recommend traditional size option) for your Renko chart as well as for your instrument.
c) Keep it on 1-second time frame, anything other than that doesn't work on TradingView's Renko. This is important as price will not repaint.
d) If you want to see bigger picture (like 4hr/daily on candle-stick chart), just increase your Renko size, but still keep it on 1-second timeframe.
This toolset includes couple different methods to provide some structures as explained below:
1. 📌 Balance | Price Action Equilibrium Zones
Overview
The Balance is a visual framework designed to evaluate directional bias and internal structure in price action. It measures net bullish/bearish momentum within a configurable rolling window, while highlighting key structural turning points based on multiple custom sensitivity levels. This tool helps traders stay in sync with market rhythm by emphasizing balance, imbalance, and inflection zones.
🔧 How It Works:
Inflection Tiers
Three customizable rounds of pivot-based divergence detection—labeled as 1°, 2°, and 3°—automatically identify regular bullish and regular bearish pivot structures. Though may not be always accurate, these structural signals are intended to keep user's focus to continually reflect emerging internal market shifts.
Balance Limit
Monitors directional bar disparity within a customizable retrospective span. When the net balance exceeds ±50% of the range, the line turns green to suggest strong directional bias. A red fill zone between these thresholds indicates equilibrium or no-trade conditions.
Volatility Based Reversal (Candle Reversal Detector)
This tool scans for extreme price movements relative to local volatility baselines, helping traders detect possible tops and bottoms before major price reversals or pauses. Compares current price action to the lowest recent volatility anchor or if price sharply dips below the highest recent volatility anchor.
🧠 Use Case Recommendations:
Discretionary trading to visually confirm balance and momentum shifts.
Confluence strategies, combining the balance counter with trend indicators or support/resistance levels.
Structure mapping, to highlight exhaustion zones or emerging reversals based on internal divergences.
Avoid using this tool in isolation. It is most effective when combined with broader market context or other confirmation layers.
2. 📌 Primary Level Detection
Overview
This is a precision tool for detecting dynamic price zones where significant market reversals may begin. Using a blend of momentum, price tension, and volatility structure, it identifies potential top and bottom areas — and tracks them with adaptive channel levels that evolve in real time.
🔧 How It Works:
Combines price action, RSI-based bias, and volatility deviation to identify moments when price is overextended.
Reacts only to major changes — reducing false positives in choppy markets.
Levels persist on the chart until a new valid reversal is confirmed, giving you visual structure and actionable areas to work with.
🧠 Use Case Recommendations:
Trading reversals, reversion-to-mean, or liquidity sweeps
Confirming entries from other indicators (like divergence, order blocks, or support/resistance)
Analyzing volatile markets where rapid direction changes are common (e.g., crypto, futures, scalping)
3. 📌 Secondary Level Detection
Overview
This tool highlights where price may be overextended and due for a short-term reversal, based on recent price structure.
🔧 How It Works:
It uses dynamic bar-count and swing conditions to identify potential price turning points after extended directional moves or strong sequence of bars in same direction.
Levels persist on the chart until a new valid reversal is confirmed, giving you visual structure and actionable areas to work with.
🧠 Use Case Recommendations:
Trading reversals, reversion-to-mean, or liquidity sweeps
Confirming entries from other indicators (like divergence, order blocks, or support/resistance)
⚠️ Important Notes:
This indicator does not repaint. All pivots and plots are based on closed candles and verified conditions.
This tool does not provide trade signals. It is a structural analysis tool intended to assist in discretionary decision-making. This indicator is for informational and educational purposes only. Use in combination with your own trading strategy, risk management, and market context. The signals generated do not guarantee outcomes and should not be used in isolation.
It is not intended to be financial advice or a recommendation to buy or sell any security or asset. Trading involves risk. Always do your own research and consult with a licensed financial advisor before making any trading decisions. Past performance is not indicative of future results.

Dual MACD Strategy [Js.k]Strategy Overview
The Dual MACD Strategy leverages two MACD indicators with different parameters to generate buy and sell signals. By combining the trend-following properties of MACD with specific entry/exit criteria, this strategy aims to capture significant price movements while effectively managing risk.
Entry and Exit Conditions
Long Entry: A buy signal is triggered when:
The histogram of MACD1 crosses above zero.
The histogram of MACD2 is positive and rising.
Short Entry: A sell signal is triggered when:
The histogram of MACD1 crosses below zero.
The histogram of MACD2 is negative and declining.
Risk Management
Stop Loss and Take Profit:
Stop Loss is set at 1% below the entry price for long positions and 1% above the entry price for short positions.
Take Profit is set at 1.5% above the entry price for long positions and 1.5% below the entry price for short positions.
Position Sizing: Each trade risks a maximum of 10% of account equity, keeping potential losses manageable and in line with standard trading practices.
Backtesting Results
The strategy is tested on BTCUSDT with a time frame of 1 hour, resulting in 200+ trades.
The initial capital for backtesting is set to $10,000, with a realistic commission of 0.04% and a slippage of 2 ticks.
Conclusion
This strategy is inspired by Dreadblitz's Double MACD Buy and Sell, as well as some YouTube videos. My purpose in redeveloping them into this strategy is to validate the practicality of the Double MACD. After multiple modifications, this is the final version. I believe its profitability is limited and may lead to losses; please do not use this strategy for live trading.
[TehThomas] - Previous Day/Week/Month High, Low, Open, CloseThis script is a powerful visual tool designed to automatically plot the key high, low, open, and close levels from the previous day, previous week, and previous month directly onto your active chart. These historical price levels are some of the most significant reference points for traders, often acting as natural magnets for price, areas of liquidity, or decision points where reversals, continuations, or fakeouts commonly occur.
Whether you’re a scalper working off intraday charts or a swing trader using higher timeframes, having these levels marked automatically keeps your chart structured and your strategy grounded in recent price behavior.
What This Script Displays on Your Chart
Once added to your chart, this script draws horizontal lines at the exact price levels where the previous day, week, and month ended or found their highs and lows. For each timeframe, you have full control over what’s shown, with toggle switches to enable or disable specific lines like:
Previous Day High and Low
Previous Day Open and Close
Previous Week High and Low
Previous Week Open and Close
Previous Month High and Low
Each level is color-coded, clearly labeled, and extended a set number of candles into the future so you can quickly identify which level is which. The labels are minimalist and clean, placed directly next to each line so they don’t distract from price action. This keeps your workspace visually organized without sacrificing context.
Why These Levels Are Important
These historical levels serve as psychological and technical anchors for the market. Traders and algorithms alike often react to the highs and lows of previous sessions, and open/close levels serve as polarity zones where support becomes resistance or vice versa.
Here are just a few practical uses:
Support and Resistance: Previous session highs and lows frequently act as strong areas where price reacts or consolidates.
Liquidity Zones: These levels often sit just above or below pools of stop-loss orders, making them common targets for liquidity grabs.
Market Context: Having previous opens and closes lets you see if price is trading above or below prior value areas, helping define bullish or bearish bias.
Entry and Exit Planning: Knowing where major levels sit helps refine your entries, manage risk, or take partial profits at high-probability reversal areas.
By automatically drawing these reference points, the script helps traders stay objective, focus on structure, and avoid emotional trading decisions.
How It Works Behind the Scenes
At the core, the script tracks the most recent completed daily, weekly, and monthly candles. It records the high, low, open, and close of those time periods and scans recent price history to find the exact bar where those levels were printed. Once found, it draws clean, extendable horizontal lines from those points forward on your chart.
The script includes built-in cleanup logic to ensure that only the latest relevant levels are visible. Whenever new session data becomes available, it removes old lines and replaces them with updated levels so your chart stays clean and accurate without any manual effort. You can also adjust how far these lines extend into the future, change their width, and personalize the colors to match your charting style.
This makes it a fully automatic, no-maintenance tool that always keeps your chart aligned with current session structure.
Whether you're watching for stop hunts at the previous week's high, looking for reaction zones around the prior day's close, or simply want to align your bias with institutional reference points, this script delivers the clean structure and clarity you need to trade more confidently and effectively.

Hybrid Heikin Ashi OverlayHybrid Heikin Ashi Overlay
I personally like Heikin Ashi for its simplicity in showing clean trends. However, it tends to smooth out price action so much that we sometimes miss key signals from the actual candles.
This indicator overlays Heikin Ashi-style background colors while keeping regular candles intact — giving you the best of both worlds:
• Smoother trend visibility
• No loss of execution precision
• Customizable colors & transparency
🔹 No repainting
🔹 No strategy logic — purely visual
🔹 Designed to reduce clutter and help traders stay focused on structure

Best EMA FinderThis script, Best EMA Finder, is based on the same original logic as the Best SMA Finder I published previously. Although it was not the initial goal of the project, several users asked for an EMA version, so here it is.
The script scans a wide range of Exponential Moving Average (EMA) lengths, from 10 to 500, and identifies the one that historically delivered the most robust performance on the current chart. The choice to stop at 500 is deliberate: beyond that point, EMA curves tend to flatten and converge, adding processing time without meaningful differences in signals or outcomes.
Each EMA is evaluated using a custom robustness score:
Profit Factor × log(Number of Trades) × sqrt(Win Rate)
Only EMA lengths that exceed a user-defined minimum number of trades are considered valid. Among these, the one with the highest robustness score is selected and displayed on the chart.
A table summarizes the results:
- Best EMA length
- Total number of trades
- Profit Factor
- Win Rate
- Robustness Score
You can adjust:
- Strategy type: Long Only or Buy & Sell
- Minimum number of trades required
- Table visibility
This script is designed for analysis and optimization only. It does not execute trades or handle position sizing. Only one open trade per direction is considered at a time.
[CUSTOM] Valid Pullbacks with pendingTrendFollow the approach of Valid Pullback & Trend indicator, but I have customized to have a pending line waiting for confirmation of the root source code
Draws the pending line to the developing internal high/low
Once a new pivot is confirmed:
- The pendingTrend line is cleared
- The direction is remembered
- No additional blue lines are drawn until the next internal pivot forms in the opposite direction

Hull Moving Average RibbonGradient Wave HMA - Multi-Ribbon Hull Moving Average System
Overview
The Gradient Wave HMA is an advanced technical indicator that transforms Alan Hull's Hull Moving Average (HMA) into a dynamic multi-layered ribbon system. Unlike traditional moving average ribbons that use simple or exponential calculations, this indicator applies Hull's innovative lag-reduction formula across 12 different timeframes simultaneously, creating a visually striking gradient effect that flows with market momentum.
Technical Foundation
This indicator is built upon the Hull Moving Average, developed by Alan Hull in 2005. The HMA uses a weighted moving average calculation designed to almost eliminate lag while maintaining curve smoothness:
HMA = WMA(2*WMA(n/2) − WMA(n), sqrt(n))
Credit: Alan Hull (www.alanhull.com)
Key Features
Multi-Period Ribbon Structure
12 individual HMA lines with customizable periods
Preset configurations for different trading styles:
Fast: 3-30 period range (scalping/intraday)
Swing: 8-55 period range (swing trading)
Position: 20-100 period range (position trading)
Custom: User-defined periods
2. Neon Gradient Visualization
Bullish Gradient: Transitions from blue-purple to hot purple
Bearish Gradient: Flows from hot pink to purple-pink
Each line has a unique color in the spectrum
Gradient fills between lines create depth and visual flow
3. Advanced Alert System
Trend Reversal Alerts: Notifies when ribbon changes direction
Price Breakout Alerts: Triggers when price crosses the ribbon
Compression Alerts: Signals potential breakouts during consolidation
Expansion Alerts: Confirms strong trending conditions
Momentum Surge Alerts: Catches explosive moves early
How It Works
The indicator calculates 12 Hull Moving Averages, each with a different period length. The trend direction is determined by the middle HMA (6th line), which triggers the color change across the entire ribbon. When trending up, the ribbon displays a purple gradient; when trending down, it shifts to a pink gradient.
Trading Applications
1. Trend Identification
Ribbon color indicates overall trend direction
All lines moving in sync confirms strong trend
Mixed signals suggest choppy or transitioning markets
2. Dynamic Support/Resistance
In uptrends, the ribbon acts as moving support
In downtrends, it provides resistance levels
Multiple layers offer various strength levels
3. Momentum Analysis
Expanding ribbon = Increasing momentum
Contracting ribbon = Decreasing momentum/consolidation
Ribbon angle indicates trend strength
4. Trading Example
Advantages Over Traditional MAs
Reduced Lag: Hull's formula provides faster response than SMA/EMA ribbons
Visual Clarity: Gradient effect makes trend changes immediately visible
Multiple Timeframes: 12 periods provide comprehensive market view
Flexibility: Presets adapt to different trading styles
Best Practices
Use higher timeframes (4H, Daily) for position trading
Combine with volume indicators for confirmation
Watch for ribbon compression before major moves
Consider overall market conditions when interpreting signals
Customization Options
Adjust individual HMA periods
Fine-tune transparency for different backgrounds
Choose between WMA and EMA base calculations
The Gradient Wave HMA combines Alan Hull's breakthrough moving average formula with modern visualization techniques to create a powerful trend-following tool that's both technically sophisticated and visually intuitive.
NoNoiseMA & SlopeHappy trade,
This is a noise-reduced moving average — let's call it the No-Noise MA. A MA where false breakout price action should have little to no impact, while the main trend remains fully represented. In comparison to previous MAs this one's trend appear more linear, and sideways price actions becomes easier to detect thanks to it's unique two filter stages.
In short, the No-Noise-MA (Noise-Reduced Moving Average) is calculated as the cumulative sum of the slopes derived from the center line of the last x pivot points. Let’s break it down step by step:
Pivot Detection:
A pivot algorithm (an adapted variant of the Bilson-Gann-Count method) identifies consecutive pivot points (high, low, high, low, etc.) in the close price series. Let's call this set of Pivots S.
Center Line Calculation:
Out of the set S the last x pivots are used to compute a center line (linear regression line). Always when a new pivot is confirmed, the oldest pivot in the queue is removed, and the new pivot is added.
Slope Extraction:
The center line is defined by its equation shown in the image below
Image 1
Cumulative Slope Sum:
As shown in the image 1 the slope is a series with values around zero. The No-Noise-MA is then just the cumulative sum of the slope series and a correction term. A correction term is needed otherwise the No-Noise-MA would run away over time from the original close price. The correction term is just the deviation between close price and cumulative slope sum multiply with a factor around 0.01 added to the No-Noise-MA.
Noise Reduction:
The goal of noise reduction is done by two filter stages. First Filter is the reduction of the input values. As shown above not all bars close prices are use, instead it uses just the pivot points delivered by the Bilson-Gann-Count method. Favorable the Bilson-Gann-Count method delivers the Pivot points in most cases much faster as other Pivot methods. Already after two bars a new Pivot is confirmed. This takes out all ups and downs between two consecutive Pivots. This first filter stage is legit because all price action in between is hedged by the Pivots.
The second filter stage is the done by the length of the center line. As more pivots are used to calculate the center line as smoother the slope becomes. Out liners just gets less impact if the base is bigger. So the number of involved Pivots has the same meaning as the lengths in any other MA.
Comparison with usual MAs:
For a comparison with other MAs this script also calculate the average lengths of the center line, shown in the upper right chart. So choose for example SMA and set the length parameter to the average length of the center line. As shown in the following image 2.
Image 2
This way both MAs have the same data base and can be objectively compared.
Trend detection:
The slope of the center line can be used for trend confirmation. A slope bigger then zero is an up trend while a slope smaller then zero is a down trend. And side way price action is indicated when the slope is around zero within a certain threshold.
Image 3
One hint should be mentioned here. The side way section gets indicated much later. About the number of bars as the center line is long. Before that there are just up or down trend predicted. In the image 2 you see the slope is firstly tin and as more bars past by the slope becomes more thick. This should indicate the point where no side way predictions will happens anymore.
Variation of calculation
In the settings menu you can find the setting "Include last close to center line". With this activated the center line is calculated with the last pivots and the last close price. The last close price is assumed as a pivot too. This gives the slope a more early reaction to volatile price action. But also brings back some noise.
Delta Volume Color CoderDelta Volume Color Coder - Smart Money Footprint Visualizer
OVERVIEW
The Delta Volume Color Coder is a clean, minimalist indicator that highlights candles with exceptional delta volume, helping you instantly identify where smart money is actively trading. Unlike complex volume indicators that clutter your chart, this tool simply colors candles when institutional-level volume appears, leaving your normal price action untouched.

MMTools - Screener❖ Overview
Screener expands your market insights and provides an efficient way to monitor real-time signals from Catcher across hundreds of charts on a single screen.
Each cell in the table displays the number of indicator signals. For instance, a value of "1" in the row labeled ‘BTCUSDT.P’ and column ‘30’ indicates one long signal on the 30-minute Bitcoin chart within the selected lookback period. “0” means no signal in the lookback.
❖ Multi-Table Construction
Screener supports flexible layouts and overlays. To build a multi-table interface, simply add multiple instances of the script to your chart. For optimal usability, it is recommended to allocate a dedicated panel or tab.
⚙️ Key Parameters to Customize Initially
Indicator Lookback: Defines how far back Screener checks for signals.
Symbols: Choose up to 20 symbols. Use additional tables to expand coverage.
Size: Adjusts the overall dimensions of the table.
Display Settings: Customize colors, opacity, and symbol visibility. For dark theme charts, set color opacity to 100% and transparency to 0%.
⚙️ Per-Table Adjustable Parameters
Timeframe: This defines the interval for signal collection across all symbols displayed in the top row of the table. It must be equal to or greater than the chart’s timeframe, otherwise the script will deliberately trigger an error. For multiple tables, use a lower chart timeframe (e.g., 1 minute) to meet this requirement.
Table Positioning: Use either the “Position” (predefined screen locations) or “Block” (stacked layout) parameters. The “Block” method enables a greater number of tables by aligning them side-by-side efficiently.

MMTools - Backtester❖ Overview
Backtester is a script implemented as a strategy, featuring multiple conditions and tools to offer an alternative way to work with Catcher. It supports both backtesting and algorithmic trading, allowing you to evaluate the indicator's performance on historical data for any instrument using the Strategy Tester.
❖ Settings
⚙️ Custom Conditions and Signals
This section is intended to provide flexibility when working with Catcher. (If you intend to use Catcher alone, this section can be disregarded). You may combine the primary indicator (Catcher) with additional custom indicators to define entry and exit signals. Simply add the custom indicator to your chart, display it and then select its name in the corresponding dropdown menu. By default, the 'Close' option is selected, meaning custom conditions are disabled.
Operator 'OR': An entry order is activated when either your custom signal or the primary signal occurs.
Operator 'AND': An entry order is activated only when both the custom and primary signals occur simultaneously.
If both 'AND' and 'OR' operators are used, enabling the 'Only Primary' option will apply the 'AND' operator only to the primary indicator.
Custom Exit: Allows the strategy to close a position based on a custom signal, in addition to standard exit conditions. The first condition met will trigger the exit.
Note: The strategy executes orders at the open of the next bar after the custom condition is met.
⚙️ Confirmation
When enabled, the strategy will enter a position only if a specified number of signals occur within a defined lookback period.
⚙️ Exits
Two types of exit mechanisms are available for take-profit and stop-loss:
Timeout: Sets a maximum duration (in bars) that a trade can remain open. If this limit is exceeded, the strategy will close the position.
Percentage-Based: Exit positions based on a specified percentage move.
⚙️ Start Date
Specifies the starting point for the backtest.
⚙️ Plotting
The green line represents the take-profit level, while the red line indicates the stop-loss level. Plotting is limited to the last 250 bars.
⚙️ Other Settings
Remember to configure additional parameters under the “Properties” tab, including commissions, slippage, and pyramiding. Default commission is set at 0.05%.

TrueTrend MaxRThe TrueTrend MaxR indicator is designed to identify the most consistent exponential price trend over extended periods. It uses statistical analysis on log-transformed prices to find the trendline that best fits historical price action, and highlights the most frequently tested or traded level within that trend channel.
For optimal results, especially on high timeframes such as weekly or monthly, it is recommended to use this indicator on charts set to logarithmic scale. This ensures proper visual alignment with the exponential nature of long-term price movements.
How it works
The indicator tests 50 different lookback periods, ranging from 300 to 1280 bars. For each period, it:
- Applies a linear regression on the natural logarithm of the price
- Computes the slope and intercept of the trendline
- Calculates the unbiased standard deviation from the regression line
- Measures the correlation strength using Pearson's R coefficient
The period with the highest Pearson R value is selected, meaning the trendline drawn corresponds to the log-scale trend with the best statistical fit.
Trendline and deviation bands
Once the optimal period is identified, the indicator plots:
- A main log-scale trendline
- Upper and lower bands, based on a user-defined multiple of the standard deviation
These bands help visualize how far price deviates from its core trend, and define the range of typical fluctuations.
Point of Control (POC)
Inside the trend channel, the space between upper and lower bands is divided into 15 logarithmic levels. The script evaluates how often price has interacted with each level, using one of two selectable methods:
- Touches: Counts the number of candles crossing each level
- Volume: Weighs each touch by the traded volume at that candle
The level with the highest cumulative interaction is considered the dynamic Point of Control (POC), and is plotted as a line.
Annualized performance and confidence display
When used on daily or weekly timeframes, the script also calculates the annualized return (CAGR) based on the detected trend, and displays:
- A performance estimate in percentage terms
- A textual label describing the confidence level based on the Pearson R value
Why this indicator is useful
- Automatically detects the most statistically consistent exponential trendline
- Designed for log-scale analysis, suited to long-term investment charts
- Highlights key price levels frequently visited or traded within the trend
- Provides objective, data-based trend and volatility insights
- Displays annualized growth rate and correlation strength for quick evaluation
Notes
- All calculations are performed only on the last bar
- No future data is used, and the script does not repaint
- Works on any instrument or timeframe, with optimal use on higher timeframes and logarithmic scaling
SD Median NUPL-Z🧠 Overview
SD Median NUPL-Z is a trend-following indicator that leverages a normalized version of Bitcoin’s Net Unrealized Profit/Loss (NUPL) metric, filtered through a median-based volatility band. Unlike traditional NUPL which is often used to spot extremes, this indicator is designed to identify sustained directional trends — entering only when both on-chain momentum and price structure align.
🧩 Key Features
Z-Scored NUPL Trend Engine: Normalizes NUPL using rolling mean and standard deviation to create a smoothed trend signal.
Price Structure Filter: Implements a median-based price band to avoid false entries during short-term volatility.
Custom Thresholds: User-defined thresholds determine when the trend signal is strong enough to justify a long or short directional bias.
Directional Candle Coloring: Reinforces current trend regime visually with aqua (bullish) and red (bearish) plots and candles.
Optimized for BTC: Uses Bitcoin’s Market Cap and Realized Cap to construct the NUPL input.
🔍 How It Works
On-Chain Core: NUPL is calculated as the percentage of unrealized profit in the market: (Market Cap - Realized Cap) / Market Cap * 100.
Z-Score Transformation: The raw NUPL value is normalized using a rolling average and standard deviation over a set window (default 134 days), producing the NUPL-Z series.
Median-Based Price Filter: A rolling 50th percentile (median) of price is used alongside its own standard deviation to create upper and lower bounds.
These bounds define a "volatility corridor" around price; the trend signal is only acted upon if price confirms by staying outside these bands.
Signal Logic:
A Long signal is triggered when NUPL-Z rises above the long threshold and price is not below the lower band.
A Short signal is triggered when NUPL-Z falls below the short threshold.
State Variable (CD): Tracks the current market regime, used to control plotting and color changes.
🔁 Use Cases & Applications
Momentum-Based Trend Following: Helps traders align with directional moves backed by both on-chain sentiment and supportive price structure.
Filtered Entry Timing: Reduces premature or noise-based entries by requiring price confirmation before committing to NUPL-based signals.
Best Suited for BTC: This tool is designed specifically around Bitcoin’s on-chain metrics and is not intended for altcoins or low-volume assets.
✅ Conclusion
SD Median NUPL-Z repurposes a traditionally cyclical valuation tool into a modern trend-following signal by combining statistical normalization with dynamic price structure filtering. It offers a more robust way to participate in high-conviction directional trends, reducing the likelihood of entering during short-lived counter moves.

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