Today's 5min HH/LL LinesOverview
This indicator identifies the highest high (HH) and lowest low (LL) formed by the first 5 one-minute candles of the current trading day. Once calculated, it plots continuous horizontal lines at those price levels for the remainder of the day.
How it works
The script internally requests 1-minute data for the current symbol, regardless of your chart’s timeframe.
At the start of each new trading day, it resets counters.
It captures the highest high and lowest low across the first five completed 1-minute candles.
After the 5th one-minute bar closes, it draws:
A green horizontal line at the highest high.
A red horizontal line at the lowest low.
These lines extend to the right, covering the entire trading session, and automatically scale with zoom/pan.
At the next session, the old lines are deleted and recalculated for the new day.
Use cases
Helps spot early intraday support and resistance zones.
Useful for breakout or reversal strategies that monitor when price breaches the first 5-minute range (derived from 5x1m bars).
Can be combined with volume, momentum, or candlestick signals for high-probability entries.
Key features
Works on any timeframe — always uses 1-minute data for precision.
Shows lines only for the current day (no clutter from prior sessions).
Lines are dynamic and adaptive — they remain fixed at the calculated price but extend continuously across the chart.

Auto Slope Extremes ChannelAuto Slope Extremes Channel
Expanding channel that locks onto the highest high and lowest low of the slope between A and B.
This indicator builds a dynamic channel between two anchors, A and B.
Unlike fixed-width channels, it adapts to the slope of the leg between A and B and expands until:
• The upper channel line touches the highest candle in that slope.
• The lower channel line touches the lowest candle in that slope.
This method ensures that the channel edges are defined only by the single most extreme high and the single most extreme low within the selected leg. No other candles in the range touch the edges.
A centerline is drawn midway between the two extremes, and small triangle markers highlight the exact candles that determine the upper and lower boundaries.
Features
• Anchored channel defined by two user-selected points (A and B).
• Expands to fit the highest high and lowest low of the slope between A and B.
• Optional centerline and channel fill.
• Extend lines left, right, or both.
• Customizable line widths and colours.
Weekly/Monthly Golden ATR LevelsWeekly/Monthly Golden ATR Levels
This indicator is designed to give traders a clear, rule-based framework for identifying support and resistance zones anchored to prior period ranges and the market’s own volatility. It uses the Average True Range (ATR) as a measure of how far price can realistically stretch, then projects fixed levels from the midpoint of the prior week and prior month.
Rather than “moving targets” that repaint, these levels are frozen at the start of each new week and month and stay fixed until the next period begins. This makes them reliable rails for both intraday and swing trading.
What It Plots
Weekly Midpoint (last week’s High + Low ÷ 2)
From this mid, the script projects:
Weekly +1 / −1 ATR
Weekly +2 / −2 ATR
Monthly Midpoint (last month’s High + Low ÷ 2)
From this mid, the script projects:
Monthly +1 / −1 ATR
Monthly +2 / −2 ATR
Customization
Set ATR length & timeframe (default: 14 ATR on Daily bars).
Adjust multipliers for Level 1 (±1 ATR) and Level 2 (±2 ATR).
Choose line color, style, and width separately for weekly and monthly bands.
Toggle labels on/off.
How to Use
Context at the Open
If price opens above last week’s midpoint, bias favors upside toward +1 / +2.
If price opens below the midpoint, bias favors downside toward −1 / −2.
Weekly Bands = Short-Term Rails
+1 / −1 ATR: Rotation pivots. Expect intraday reaction.
+2 / −2 ATR: Extreme stretch zones. Reversals or breakouts often occur here.
Monthly Bands = Big Picture Rails
Use these for swing positioning, or as “outer guardrails” on intraday charts.
When weekly and monthly bands cluster → high-confluence zone.
Trade Playbook
Trend Day: Hold above +1 → target +2. Break below −1 → target −2.
Range Day: Fade first test of ±2, scalp toward ±1 or midpoint.
Catalyst/News Day: Use with caution—levels provide context, not barriers.
Risk Management
Place stops just outside the band you’re trading against.
Scale profits at the next inner level (e.g., short from +2, cover partial at +1).
Runners can trail to the midpoint or opposite side.
Why It Works
ATR measures volatility—how far price tends to travel in a given period.
Anchoring to prior highs and lows captures where real supply/demand last clashed.
Combining the two gives levels that are statistically relevant, widely observed, and psychologically sticky.
Trading books from Mark Douglas (Trading in the Zone), Jared Tendler (The Mental Game of Trading), and Oliver Kell (Victory in Stock Trading) all stress the importance of having objective, repeatable reference points. These levels deliver that discipline—removing guesswork and reducing emotional trading
Algorithmic Kalman Filter [CRYPTIK1]Price action is chaos. Markets are driven by high-frequency algorithms, emotional reactions, and raw speculation, creating a constant stream of noise that obscures the true underlying trend. A simple moving average is too slow, too primitive to navigate this environment effectively. It lags, it gets chopped up, and it fails when you need it most.
This script implements an Algorithmic Kalman Filter (AKF), a sophisticated signal processing algorithm adapted from aerospace and robotic guidance systems. Its purpose is singular: to strip away market noise and provide a hyper-adaptive, self-correcting estimate of an asset's true trajectory.
The Concept: An Adaptive Intelligence
Unlike a moving average that mindlessly averages past data, the Kalman Filter operates on a two-step principle: Predict and Update.
Predict: On each new bar, the filter makes a prediction of the true price based on its previous state.
Update: It then measures the error between its prediction and the actual closing price. It uses this error to intelligently correct its estimate, learning from its mistakes in real-time.
The result is a flawlessly smooth line that adapts to volatility. It remains stable during chop and reacts swiftly to new trends, giving you a crystal-clear view of the market's real intention.
How to Wield the Filter: The Core Settings
The power of the AKF lies in its two tuning parameters, which allow you to calibrate the filter's "brain" to any asset or timeframe.
Process Noise (Q) - Responsiveness: This controls how much you expect the true trend to change.
A higher Q value makes the filter more sensitive and responsive to recent price action. Use this for highly volatile assets or lower timeframes.
A lower Q value makes the filter smoother and more stable, trusting that the underlying trend is slow-moving. Use this for higher timeframes or ranging markets.
Measurement Noise (R) - Smoothness: This controls how much you trust the incoming price data.
A higher R value tells the filter that the price is extremely noisy and to be more skeptical. This results in a much smoother, slower-moving line.
A lower R value tells the filter to trust the price data more, resulting in a line that tracks price more closely.
The interaction between Q and R is what gives the filter its power. The default settings provide a solid baseline, but a true operator will fine-tune these to perfectly match the rhythm of their chosen market.
Tactical Application
The AKF is not just a line; it's a complete framework for viewing the market.
Trend Identification: The primary signal. The filter's color code provides an unambiguous definition of the trend. Teal for an uptrend, Pink for a downtrend. No more guesswork.
Dynamic Support & Resistance: The filter itself acts as a dynamic level. Watch for price to pull back and find support on a rising (Teal) filter in an uptrend, or to be rejected by a falling (Pink) filter in a downtrend.
A Higher-Order Filter: Use the AKF's trend state to filter signals from your primary strategy. For example, only take long signals when the AKF is Teal. This single rule can dramatically reduce noise and eliminate low-probability trades.
This is a professional-grade tool for traders who are serious about gaining a statistical edge. Ditch the lagging averages. Extract the signal from the noise.
TEWMA Supertrend - [JTCAPITAL]TEWMA Supertrend is a modified way to use Triple Exponential Weighted Moving Average inside Supertrend logic for Trend-Following
The indicator works by calculating in the following steps:
1. Calculate the Triple Exponential Moving Average with Weighted Moving Average as input.
2. Calculate the ATR over the Supertrend Length
3. Use the Triple Exponential Weighted Moving Average, and add the multiplier times the ATR for the upper limit, and subtract the multiplier times the ATR for the lower limit.
4. Define Buy and Sell conditions based on the price closing above or below the upper and lower limits.
--Buy and sell conditions--
- The buy and sell conditions are defined by the price going above/below the upper and lower limits, calculated by (TEWMA +/- multi * ATR).
- When this goes on the opposite direction of the current trend, the trend changes. If this goes in the same direction of the current trend, the line follows the price by moving up.
- When price gets closer to the limits the limits do not change. The upper limit only moves when the upper decreases, and the lower limit only moves when the lower increases.
- The ATR gets subtracted from the lows or added onto the highs to eliminate false signals in choppy markets, while enforcing fast entries and exits.
--Features and Parameters--
- Allows the usage of different sources
- Allows the changing of the length of the ATR
- Allows the changing of the length of the TEWMA
- Allows the changing of the multiplier to increase or decrease ATR usage
--Details--
This script is using TEWMA as input for the modified Supertrend. Using a TEWMA and getting a higher multiplier to the ATR is meant to decrease false signals. Which can be a problem when using a normal Supertrend. Using the TEWMA also ensures fast entries and exits from fast market moves after a calm period. Ensuring you don't stay left behind.
Be aware that lowering the multiplier for the ATR will allow for faster entries and exits but also allow for more false signals. It is recommended to change the parameters to fit your liking and to adjust to the timeframe you are working on.
Enjoy!
Supertrend Channel Histogram OscillatorThis histogram is based on the script "Supertrend Channels "
The idea of the indicator is to visually represent the interaction of price with several different supertrend channels of various lengths in an oscillator in order to make it much more clear to the trader how the longer trends are interacting with shorter trends of the price movement of an asset. I got this idea from the "Kurutoga Cloud" and "Kurutoga Histogram" by D7R which is based on the centerlines of 3 Donchian Channels, however after I started using the Supertrend Channel by LuxAlgo I found that it was a more reliable price range channel than a standard Donchian Channel and I made this indicator to accompany it.
This indicator plots a positive value above 0 when the price is above the centerline of the supertrend channel and a negative value below 0 when the price is below the centerline.
The first supertrend's length and multiple can be adjusted in the settings.
The given supertrend input is then doubled and quadrupled in both length and multiplication so that a supertrend histogram with the values of 3, 3 will be accompanied by 2 additional supertrend histograms with the values of 6, 6 and 12, 12.
The larger price trend histograms are clearly visible behind the short term supertrend channel's histogram, giving traders a balanced view of short and long term trends interacting. The less visible columns of the larger trend remain above or below the 0 line behind the more visible short term channel trend, helping to spot pullbacks within a larger trend.
Additionally, when the 3 separate histograms are all positive or all negative but the histogram columns are separating from each other this can indicate a potential trend exhaustion leading to reversal or pullback about to happen.
The overbought and oversold lines at 50 and -50 are representative primarily of the short term trend with above 50 or below -50 indicating that the price is pushing the boundary and potentially beginning a new short term supertrend in the opposite direction. If values do not noticably exceed these levels, then the current short term trend movement can be viewed as a pullback within a larger trend, with continuation potentially to follow.
I have had troubles converting the original code to v6 so this will be published here in v5 of pinescript to be used in conjunction with the original. I was intending to create a companion indicator for this oscillator that represents 3 supertrends with corresponding 2x and 4x calculations based on LuxAlgo's script, but I can't seem to get it to work correctly in v5.
For best visualization of the trends 3 LuxAlgo Supertrend channels with 2x and 4x values should be used in conjunction with each other to fully visualize the histogram.
Used in conjunction with other indicators this can be a very effective strategy to capture larger trend moves and pullbacks within trends, as well as warn of potential price trend exhaustion.
APC – Anti-Analysis-Paralysis Kompass APC – Anti-Analysis-Paralysis Compass (Pine v5).
Research/education indicator that compresses trend from 5 timeframes into one compass with Direction, Score, and Coherence (TF agreement). Non-repainting with a high-contrast breakdown table and in-chart help. No financial advice.
What it is
APC is a research/education tool that condenses trend information from five timeframes into a single compass. It shows Direction (↑/↓/→), a weighted Score, and Coherence (how strongly timeframes agree). The script is non-repainting (security(..., lookahead=off)) and includes a readable breakdown panel and example alerts.
How it works
• For each timeframe APC fits a linear regression to price, measures the slope change over k bars, optionally normalizes by ATR%, then maps it to +1 / 0 / −1 using a Deadzone (small slopes → neutral).
• A (weighted) sum of the five signs forms the Score.
• Coherence = |Score| / maxScore (0–100%), i.e., degree of TF alignment.
Quick start (suggested defaults)
• Timeframes: 15m · 1h · 4h · 1D · 1W • Weights: 1, 1, 1, 1.5, 2
• LinReg length: 100 • Slope Δ window: 10
• ATR normalization: ON • Deadzone: 0.03–0.05
• Coherence lock (for example alerts): 60%
Example research filters (non-advisory)
Many users test: Bullish bias when Score ≥ +3 and Coherence ≥ 60%; bearish bias when Score ≤ −3 and Coherence ≥ 60%. These are illustrative defaults only—configure and test your own thresholds.
Optional: pair with Kagi
Use APC for bias/conviction and Kagi turns for timing. Typical Kagi (swing): base 15m–1h, reversal ATR(14) × 1.5–2.5 or 1–3%.
Notes
Raise Deadzone in choppy markets; lower it for earlier flips. On very illiquid or young symbols, lengthen lenLR.

Volatility Cone Forecaster Lite [PhenLabs]📊 Volatility Cone Forecaster
Version: PineScript™v6
📌Description
The Volatility Cone Forecaster (VCF) is an advanced indicator designed to provide traders with a forward-looking perspective on market volatility. Instead of merely measuring past price fluctuations, the VCF analyzes historical volatility data to project a statistical “cone” that outlines a probable range for future price movements. Its core purpose is to contextualize the current market environment, helping traders to anticipate potential shifts from low to high volatility periods (and vice versa). By identifying whether volatility is expanding or contracting relative to historical norms, it solves the critical problem of preparing for significant market moves before they happen, offering a clear statistical edge in strategy development.
This indicator moves beyond lagging measures by employing percentile analysis to rank the current volatility state. This allows traders to understand not just what volatility is, but how significant it is compared to the recent past. The VCF is built for discretionary traders, system developers, and options strategists who need a sophisticated understanding of market dynamics to manage risk and identify high-probability opportunities.
🚀Points of Innovation
Forward-Looking Volatility Projection: Unlike standard indicators that only show historical data, the VCF projects a statistical cone of future volatility.
Percentile-Based Regime Analysis: Ranks current volatility against historical data (e.g., 90th, 75th percentiles) to provide objective context.
Automated Regime Detection: Automatically identifies and labels the market as being in a ‘High’, ‘Low’, or ‘Normal’ volatility regime.
Expansion & Contraction Signals: Clearly indicates whether volatility is currently increasing or decreasing, signaling shifts in market energy.
Integrated ATR Comparison: Plots an ATR-equivalent volatility measure to offer a familiar point of reference against the statistical model.
Dynamic Visual Modeling: The cone visualization directly on the price chart provides an intuitive guide for future expected price ranges.
🔧Core Components
Realized Volatility Engine: Calculates historical volatility using log returns over multiple user-defined lookback periods (short, medium, long) for a comprehensive view.
Percentile Analysis Module: A custom function calculates the 10th, 25th, 50th, 75th, and 90th percentiles of volatility over a long-term lookback (e.g., 252 days).
Forward Projection Calculator: Uses the calculated volatility percentiles to mathematically derive and draw the upper and lower bounds of the future volatility cone.
Volatility Regime Classifier: A logic-based system that compares current volatility to the historical percentile bands to classify the market state.
🔥Key Features
Customizable Lookback Periods: Adjust short, medium, and long-term lookbacks to fine-tune the indicator’s sensitivity to different market cycles.
Configurable Forward Projection: Set the number of days for the forward cone projection to align with your specific trading horizon.
Interactive Display Options: Toggle visibility for percentile labels, ATR levels, and regime coloring to customize the chart display.
Data-Rich Information Table: A clean, on-screen table displays all key metrics, including current volatility, percentile rank, regime, and trend.
Built-in Alert Conditions: Set alerts for critical events like volatility crossing the 90th percentile, dropping below the 10th, or switching between expansion and contraction.
🎨Visualization
Volatility Cone: Shaded bands projected onto the future price axis, representing the probable price range at different statistical confidence levels (e.g., 75th-90th percentile).
Color-Coded Volatility Line: The primary volatility plot dynamically changes color (e.g., red for high, green for low) to reflect the current volatility regime, providing instant context.
Historical Percentile Bands: Horizontal lines plotted across the indicator pane mark the key percentile levels, showing how current volatility compares to the past.
On-Chart Labels: Clear labels automatically display the current volatility reading, its percentile rank, the detected regime, and trend (Expanding/Contracting).
📖Usage Guidelines
Setting Categories
Short-term Lookback: Default: 10, Range: 5-50. Controls the most sensitive volatility calculation.
Medium-term Lookback: Default: 21, Range: 10-100. The primary input for the current volatility reading.
Long-term Lookback: Default: 63, Range: 30-252. Provides a baseline for long-term market character.
Percentile Lookback Period: Default: 252, Range: 100-1000. Defines the period for historical ranking; 252 represents one trading year.
Forward Projection Days: Default: 21, Range: 5-63. Determines how many bars into the future the cone is projected.
✅Best Use Cases
Breakout Trading: Identify periods of deep consolidation when volatility falls to low percentile ranks (e.g., below 25th) and begins to expand, signaling a potential breakout.
Mean Reversion Strategies: Target trades when volatility reaches extreme high percentile ranks (e.g., above 90th), as these periods are often unsustainable and lead to contraction.
Options Strategy: Use the cone’s projected upper and lower bounds to help select strike prices for strategies like iron condors or straddles.
Risk Management: Widen stop-losses and reduce position sizes when the indicator signals a transition into a ‘High’ volatility regime.
⚠️Limitations
Probabilistic, Not Predictive: The cone represents a statistical probability, not a guarantee of future price action. Extreme, unpredictable news events can drive prices outside the cone.
Lagging by Nature: All calculations are based on historical price data, meaning the indicator will always react to, not pre-empt, market changes.
Non-Directional: The indicator forecasts the *magnitude* of future moves, not the *direction*. It should be paired with a directional analysis tool.
💡What Makes This Unique
Forward Projection: Its primary distinction is projecting a data-driven, statistical forecast of future volatility, which standard oscillators do not do.
Contextual Analysis: It doesn’t just provide a number; it tells you what that number means through percentile ranking and automated regime classification.
🔬How It Works
1. Data Calculation:
The indicator first calculates the logarithmic returns of the asset’s price. It then computes the annualized standard deviation of these returns over short, medium, and long-term lookback periods to generate realized volatility readings.
2. Percentile Ranking:
Using a 252-day lookback, it analyzes the history of the medium-term volatility and determines the values that correspond to the 10th, 25th, 50th, 75th, and 90th percentiles. This builds a statistical map of the asset’s volatility behavior.
3. Cone Projection:
Finally, it takes these historical percentile values and projects them forward in time, calculating the potential upper and lower price bounds based on what would happen if volatility were to run at those levels over the next 21 days.
💡Note:
The Volatility Cone Forecaster is most effective on daily and weekly charts where statistical volatility models are more reliable. For lower timeframes, consider shortening the lookback periods. Always use this indicator as part of a comprehensive trading plan that includes other forms of analysis.
Normalized Volume Z-Score
The Normalized Volume Z-Score indicator measures how unusual the current trading volume is compared to its recent history.
It calculates the z-score of volume over a user-defined lookback period (default: 50 bars), optionally using log-volume normalization.
A z-score tells you how many standard deviations today’s volume is away from its mean:
Z = 0 → volume is at its average.
Z > 0 → volume is higher than average.
Z < 0 → volume is lower than average.
Threshold lines (±2 by default) highlight extreme deviations, which often signal unusual market activity.
How to Trade with It
High positive Z-score (> +2):
Indicates abnormally high volume. This often happens during breakouts, strong trend continuations, or capitulation events.
→ Traders may look for confirmation from price action (e.g., breakout candle, strong trend bar) before entering a trade.
High negative Z-score (< –2):
Indicates unusually low volume. This may signal lack of interest, consolidation, or exhaustion.
→ Traders may avoid entering new positions during these periods or expect potential reversals once volume returns.
Cross back inside thresholds:
When z-score returns inside ±2 after an extreme spike, it may suggest that the abnormal activity has cooled down.
Tips
Works best when combined with price structure (support/resistance, demand/supply zones).
Can be applied to crypto, stocks, forex, futures – anywhere volume is meaningful.
Log normalization helps reduce distortion when some days have extremely large volumes.
CryptoThunder Storm v1.21CryptoThunder Storm v1.21 — Strategy (non-repainting, HTF-aware)
CryptoThunder Storm is a Pine v6 strategy that trades the cross of two moving-average variants computed on an alternate (higher) timeframe derived from your current chart. It’s built to be non-repainting by evaluating signals only at HTF bar boundaries and by avoiding lookahead. The script can trade LONG, SHORT, BOTH, or be disabled, and it includes a one-click invert Long/Short mode.
How it works
Two MA streams (Open/Close series).
You can choose from multiple MA types (SMA/EMA/DEMA/TEMA/WMA/VWMA/SMMA/Hull/LSMA/ALMA/SSMA/TMA). The script computes:
closeSeries – MA of the (possibly delayed) close
openSeries – MA of the (possibly delayed) open
Alternate Resolution (HTF).
The inputs allow you to multiply your current chart’s timeframe (e.g., on 5m with multiplier 3 → HTF = 15m). Both series are requested via request.security() with lookahead_off.
Non-repainting gating.
Signals are evaluated once per HTF bar (htfClosed gate). This ensures entries/alerts are aligned with HTF boundaries and prevents forward-shifting.
Entry logic.
Long when closeSeriesAlt crosses above openSeriesAlt.
Short when closeSeriesAlt crosses below openSeriesAlt.
Invert mode swaps these actions (a former long signal opens a short, and vice versa).
Orders are processed on bar close (process_orders_on_close=true).
Risk management (optional).
Optional initial TP/SL exits via strategy.exit() (ticks/points). Set 0 to disable.
Visuals.
The script colors bars (optional) and plots the two HTF series with a filled band, plus compact UP/DN/CL markers that match the executed side after inversion/filtering.
Inputs & configuration
Use Alternate Resolution?
Turns the HTF logic on/off. When off, the strategy uses the chart timeframe.
Multiplier for Alternate Resolution
Multiplies the current timeframe to form the HTF (e.g., 3×).
MA Type / Period / Offsets
MA Type — choose from 12 variants.
MA Period — core length.
Offset for LSMA / Sigma for ALMA — MA-specific tuning.
Offset for ALMA — center of mass for ALMA.
Delay Open/Close MA — shifts the source back by n bars for a more conservative (non-peek) calculation. Keep at 0 unless you know you want extra delay.
Show coloured Bars to indicate Trend?
Colors bars relative to HTF band.
What trades should be taken: LONG / SHORT / BOTH / NONE
Filters which sides are actually traded.
Invert Long/Short logic?
Swaps long ↔ short everywhere (orders, markers, JSON alerts).
Backtest window (Number of Bars for Back Testing)
Crude limiter to speed up testing. 0 = test full history.
TP/SL (Initial Stop Loss / Target Profit Points)
Values in ticks/points. 0 disables. They apply to both sides via strategy.exit().
Alert options
Turn on alerts (JSON)
Show alert marks (UP/DOWN/CLOSE)
Send CLOSE alerts (toggle)
The strategy fires alert() internally. Create an alert on “Any alert() function call”.
The payload is a simple JSON string:{ "text":"C98USDT.P UP"}
Messages:
UP — a long entry was executed (or, with Invert on: the inverted long signal that opens a long).
DOWN — a short entry executed.
CLOSE — position closed or flipped.
Tip: If you want to route long/short to different webhooks, parse the text field for UP, DOWN, or CLOSE
Plotting & markers
Band: Fills between the two HTF MA lines.
Bar color (optional): Quick visual trend cue.
Markers:
▲ “UP” below bar when a long executes.
▼ “DN” above bar when a short executes.
✖ “CL” on position close/flip.
These reflect the final executed side, after trade filters and after Invert mode
Best practices & notes
Non-repainting design.
request.security(..., lookahead_off) prevents future data leakage.
Signals are gated to HTF bar boundaries, so you won’t get intra-HTF recalculations.
Strategy orders are processed at bar close.
Choosing the multiplier.
A 2×–4× multiplier often balances responsiveness vs stability (e.g., 5m→15m or 20m). Larger multipliers reduce churn and false signals.
TP/SL units.
Values are in ticks/points of the chart symbol. On crypto, check your instrument’s tick size and adjust accordingly.
Trade filters apply after inversion.
With invertLS = true and tradeType = LONG, only final longs (post-inversion) are allowed.
Strategy vs chart counts.
The Tester reports closed trades; your chart shows entries/markers including the latest open trade. This can explain 8 vs 12 discrepancies over short windows.
Performance.
calc_on_every_tick=false and the backtest limiter keep the script responsive on long histories.
Tips: user on mid-volume crypto pair, 1M chart, best MA is: SMMA, Hull, SSMA, DEMA, TEMA.
This strategy is for research and education. Markets carry risk; past performance doesn’t guarantee future results. Always forward-test on paper and validate your exchange execution, tick size, and fees before deploying live.
Confluence Engine Confluence Engine is a practical, non-repainting decision aid that scores market conditions from −100…+100 by combining six proven modules: Trend, Momentum, Volatility, Volume, Structure, and an HTF confirmation. It’s designed for crypto, forex, indices, and stocks, and it fires entries only on confirmed bar closes.
What’s inside
Trend: EMA 20/50/200 alignment plus a Supertrend/KAMA toggle (you choose the baseline).
Momentum: RSI + MACD with confirmed-pivot divergence detection.
Volatility: ATR% and Bollinger Band width vs its average to favor expansion over chop.
Volume: OBV-style cumulative flow slope + volume surge vs SMA×multiplier.
Market Structure: Confirmed pivots, BOS (break of structure) and CHOCH (change of character).
HTF Filter: Closed higher-timeframe context via request.security(..., barmerge.gaps_on, barmerge.lookahead_off).
Why it does not repaint
Signals are computed and plotted on closed bars only.
Pivots/divergences use confirmed pivot points (no forward look).
HTF series are fetched with lookahead_off and use the last closed HTF bar in realtime.
No future bar references are used for entries or alerts.
How to use (3 steps)
Pick a timeframe pair: use a 4–6× HTF multiplier (5m→30m, 15m→1h, 1h→4h, 4h→1D, 1D→1W).
Trade with the HTF: take longs only when the HTF filter is bullish; shorts only when bearish.
Prefer expansion: act when BB width > its average and ATR% is elevated; skip most signals in compression.
Suggested presets (start here)
Crypto (BTC/ETH): 15m→1h, 1h→4h. stLen=10, stMult=3.0, bbLen=20, surgeMul=1.8–2.2, thresholds +40 / −40 (intraday can try +35 / −35).
Forex majors: 15m→1h, 1h→4h. stLen=10–14, stMult=2.5–3.0, surgeMul=1.5–1.8, thresholds +35 / −35 (swing: +45 / −45).
US equities (liquid): 5m→30m/1h, 15m→1h/2h. stMult=3.0–3.5, surgeMul=1.6–2.0, thresholds +45 / −45 to reduce chop.
Indices (ES/NQ): 5m→30m, 15m→1h. Defaults are fine; start at +40 / −40.
Gold/Oil: 15m→1h, 1h→4h. Thresholds +35 / −35, surgeMul=1.6–1.9.
Inputs (plain English)
Use Supertrend (off = KAMA): choose the trend baseline.
EMA Fast/Mid/Slow: 20/50/200 by default for classic stack.
RSI/MACD + divergence pivots: momentum and exhaustion context.
ATR Length & BB Length: volatility regime detection.
Volume SMA & Surge Multiplier: defines “meaningful” volume spikes.
Pivot left/right & “Confirm BOS/CHOCH on Close”: structure strictness.
Enable HTF & Higher Timeframe: confirms the lower timeframe direction.
Thresholds (+long / −short): when the score crosses these, you get signals.
Signals & alerts (IDs preserved)
Entry shapes plot at bar close when the score crosses thresholds.
Alerts you can enable:
CONFLUENCE LONG — long entry signal
CONFLUENCE SHORT — short entry signal
BULLISH BIAS — score turned positive
BEARISH BIAS — score turned negative
Best practices
Focus on signals with HTF agreement and volatility expansion; require volume participation (surge or rising OBV slope) for higher quality.
Raise thresholds (+45/−45 or +50/−50) to reduce whipsaws in choppy sessions.
Lower thresholds (+35/−35) only if you also require volatility/volume filters.
Performance & scope
Works across crypto/FX/equities/indices; no broker data or special feeds required.
No repainting by design; signals/alerts are computed on closed bars.
As with any tool, results vary by regime; always combine with risk management.

This tool breaks the trading day into three user-defined sessions and tracks how much each session contributes to return, volatility, and volume. It then aggregates results over a rolling window so you can see which session has been pulling its weight, how streaky each session has been, and how sessions relate to one another through a compact correlation heatmap.
We’ve also given the functionality for the user to use a simplified table, just by switching off all settings they are not interested in.
How it works
1) Session segmentation
You define APAC, EU, and US sessions with explicit hours and time zones. The script detects when each session starts and ends on every intraday bar and records its open, intraday high and low, close, and summed volume.
2) Per-session math
At each session end the script computes:
Return — either Percent: (Close−Open)÷Open×100(Close − Open) ÷ Open × 100(Close−Open)÷Open×100 or Points: (Close−Open)(Close − Open)(Close−Open), based on your selection.
Volatility — either Range: (High−Low)÷Open×100(High − Low) ÷ Open × 100(High−Low)÷Open×100 or ATR scaled by price: ATR÷Open×100ATR ÷ Open × 100ATR÷Open×100.
Volume — total volume transacted during that session.
3) Storage and lookback
Each day’s three session stats are stored as a row. You choose how many recent sessions to keep in memory. The script then:
Builds cumulative returns for APAC, EU, US across the lookback.
Computes averages, win rates, and a Sharpe-like ratio avgreturn÷avgvolatilityavg return ÷ avg volatilityavgreturn÷avgvolatility per session.
Tracks streaks of positive or negative sessions to show momentum.
Tracks drawdowns on cumulative returns to show worst runs from peak.
Computes rolling means over a short window for short-term drift.
4) Correlation heatmap
Using the stored arrays of session returns, the script calculates Pearson correlations between APAC–EU, APAC–US, and EU–US, and colors the matrix by strength and sign so you can spot coupling or decoupling at a glance.
What it plots
Three lines: cumulative return for APAC, EU, US over the chosen lookback.
Zero reference line for orientation.
A statistics table with cumulative %, average %, positive session rate, and optional columns for volatility, average volume, max drawdown, current streak, return-to-vol ratio, and rolling average.
A small correlation heatmap table showing APAC, EU, US cross-session correlations.
How to use it
Pick the asset — leave Custom Instrument empty to use the chart symbol, or point to another symbol for cross-asset studies.
Set your sessions and time zones — defaults approximate APAC, EU, and US hours, but you can align them to exchange times or your workflow.
Choose calculation modes — Percent vs Points for return, Range vs ATR for volatility. Points are convenient for futures and fixed-tick assets, Percent is comparable across symbols.
Decide the lookback — more sessions smooths lines and stats; fewer sessions makes the tool more reactive.
Toggle analytics — add volatility, volume, drawdown, streaks, Sharpe-like ratio, rolling averages, and the correlation table as needed.
Why session attribution helps
Different sessions are driven by different flows. Asia often sets the overnight tone, Europe adds liquidity and direction changes, and the US session can dominate range expansion. Separating contributions by session helps you:
Identify which session has been the main driver of net trend.
Measure whether volatility or volume is concentrated in a specific window.
See if one session’s gains are consistently given back in another.
Adapt tactics: fade during a mean-reverting session, press during a trending session.
Reading the tables
Cumulative % — sum of session returns over the lookback. The sign and slope tell you who is carrying the move.
Avg Return % and Positive Sessions % — direction and hit rate. A low average but high hit rate implies many small moves; the reverse implies occasional big swings.
Avg Volatility % — typical intrabars range for that session. Compare with Avg Return to judge efficiency.
Return/Vol Ratio — return per unit of volatility. Higher is better for stability.
Max Drawdown % — worst cumulative give-back within the lookback. A quick way to spot riskiness by session.
Current Streak — consecutive up or down sessions. Useful for mean-reversion or regime awareness.
Rolling Avg % — short-window drift indicator to catch recent turnarounds.
Correlation matrix — green clusters indicate sessions tending to move together; red indicates offsetting behavior.

Strategy scheduling — allocate attention or risk to the session with the best return-to-vol ratio.
News and macro awareness — see if correlation rises around central bank cycles or major data releases.
Cross-asset monitoring — set the Custom Instrument to a driver (index future, DXY, yields) to see if your symbol reacts in a particular session.
Notes
This indicator works on intraday charts, since sessions are defined within a day. If you change session clocks or time zones, give the script a few bars to accumulate fresh rows. Percent vs Points and Range vs ATR choices affect comparability across assets, so be consistent when comparing symbols.
Session context is one of the simplest ways to explain a messy tape. By separating the day into three windows and scoring each one on return, volatility, and consistency, this tool shows not just where price ended up but when and how it got there. Use the cumulative lines to spot the steady driver, read the table to judge quality and risk, and glance at the heatmap to learn whether the sessions are amplifying or canceling one another. Adjust the hours to your market and let the data tell you which session deserves your focus.
Zarattini Intra-day Threshold Bands (ZITB)This indicator implements the intraday threshold band methodology described in the research paper by Carlo Zarattini et al.
papers.ssrn.com
Overview:
Plots intraday threshold bands based on daily open/close levels.
Supports visualization of BaseUp/BaseDown levels and Threshold Upper/Lower bands.
Optional shading between threshold bands for easier interpretation.
Usage Notes / Limitations:
Originally studied on SPY (US equities), this implementation is adapted for NSE intraday market timing, specifically the NIFTY50 index.
Internally, 2-minute candles are used if the chart timeframe is less than 2 minutes.
Values may be inaccurate if the chart timeframe is more than 1 day.
Lookback days are auto-capped to avoid exceeding TradingView’s 5000-bar limit.
The indicator automatically aligns intraday bars across multiple days to compute average deltas.
For better returns, it is recommended to use this indicator in conjunction with VWAP and a volatility-based position sizing mechanism.
Can be used as a reference for Open Range Breakout (ORB) strategies.
Customizations:
Toggle plotting of base levels and thresholds.
Toggle shading between thresholds.
Line colors and styles can be adjusted in the Style tab.

Machine Learning Gaussian Mixture Model | AlphaNattMachine Learning Gaussian Mixture Model | AlphaNatt
A revolutionary oscillator that uses Gaussian Mixture Models (GMM) with unsupervised machine learning to identify market regimes and automatically adapt momentum calculations - bringing statistical pattern recognition techniques to trading.
"Markets don't follow a single distribution - they're a mixture of different regimes. This oscillator identifies which regime we're in and adapts accordingly."
━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━
🤖 THE MACHINE LEARNING
Gaussian Mixture Models (GMM):
Unlike K-means clustering which assigns hard boundaries, GMM uses probabilistic clustering :
Models data as coming from multiple Gaussian distributions
Each market regime is a different Gaussian component
Provides probability of belonging to each regime
More sophisticated than simple clustering
Expectation-Maximization Algorithm:
The indicator continuously learns and adapts using the E-M algorithm:
E-step: Calculate probability of current market belonging to each regime
M-step: Update regime parameters based on new data
Continuous learning without repainting
Adapts to changing market conditions
━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━
🎯 THREE MARKET REGIMES
The GMM identifies three distinct market states:
Regime 1 - Low Volatility:
Quiet, ranging markets
Uses RSI-based momentum calculation
Reduces false signals in choppy conditions
Background: Pink tint
Regime 2 - Normal Market:
Standard trending conditions
Uses Rate of Change momentum
Balanced sensitivity
Background: Gray tint
Regime 3 - High Volatility:
Strong trends or volatility events
Uses Z-score based momentum
Captures extreme moves
Background: Cyan tint
━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━
💡 KEY INNOVATIONS
1. Probabilistic Regime Detection:
Instead of binary regime assignment, provides probabilities:
30% Regime 1, 60% Regime 2, 10% Regime 3
Smooth transitions between regimes
No sudden indicator jumps
2. Weighted Momentum Calculation:
Combines three different momentum formulas
Weights based on regime probabilities
Automatically adapts to market conditions
3. Confidence Indicator:
Shows how certain the model is (white line)
High confidence = strong regime identification
Low confidence = transitional market state
Line transparency changes with confidence

Pivot Point TrendOverview
A trend-following trailing line built from confirmed pivot highs/lows and ATR bands. The line turns green in uptrends and red in downtrends. A flip happens only when price closes on the other side of the opposite trail, helping filter noise.
How it works:
Finds confirmed swing points (pivots) and builds a smoothed center from them.
From that center, creates ATR-based bands.
The active trail “locks” in the trend: in uptrends it never moves down; in downtrends it never moves up.
Close above the prior upper trail → bullish; close below the prior lower trail → bearish.
Inputs
Pivot Point Period (prd) – strictness of pivot confirmation (delay = prd bars).
ATR Period (pd) and ATR Factor (factor) – band width; higher values = fewer flips.
Calculation timeframe (calcTF) – leave empty to use chart TF, or set a hard TF like 1D, 4H.
Show Center Line – optional central guide.
Line Width – trail thickness.
Alerts
Bullish Flip – trend turns bullish.
Bearish Flip – trend turns bearish.
Trend Changed – any flip event.
Usage tips
Typical crypto intraday starters: prd 2–5, pd 10–14, factor 2.5–3.5.
For smoother signals, compute on a higher TF (e.g., calcTF = 1D) and time entries on your lower TF.
Prefer actions on bar close of the calculation TF to avoid intrabar whipsaw.
Notes on repainting
The script uses request.security(..., lookahead_off). Pivots confirm after prd bars by design; once confirmed, the center and trails do not use future data. Evaluate flips on bar close for consistency, especially when calcTF > chart TF.

Deadband Hysteresis Supertrend [BackQuant]Deadband Hysteresis Supertrend
A two-stage trend tool that first filters price with a deadband baseline, then runs a Supertrend around that baseline with optional flip hysteresis and ATR-based adverse exits.
What this is
A hybrid of two ideas:
Deadband Hysteresis Baseline that only advances when price pulls far enough from the baseline to matter. This suppresses micro noise and gives you a stable centerline.
Supertrend bands wrapped around that baseline instead of raw price. Flips are further gated by an extra margin so side changes are more deliberate.
The goal is fewer whipsaws in chop and clearer regime identification during trends.
How it works (high level)
Deadband step — compute a per-bar “deadband” size from one of four modes: ATR, Percent of price, Ticks, or Points. If price deviates from the baseline by more than this amount, move the baseline forward by a fraction of the excess. If not, hold the line.
Centered Supertrend — build upper and lower bands around the baseline using ATR and a user factor. Track the usual trailing logic that tightens a band while price moves in its favor.
Flip hysteresis — require price to exceed the active band by an extra flip offset × ATR before switching sides. This adds stickiness at the boundary.
Adverse exit — once a side is taken, trigger an exit if price moves against the entry by K × ATR .
If you would like to check out the filter by itself:
What it plots
DBHF baseline (optional) as a smooth centerline.
DBHF Supertrend as the active trailing band.
Candle coloring by trend side for quick read.
Signal markers 𝕃 and 𝕊 at flips plus ✖ on adverse exits.
Inputs that matter
Price Source — series being filtered. Close is typical. HL2 or HLC3 can be steadier.
Deadband mode — ATR, Percent, Ticks, or Points. This defines the “it’s big enough to matter” zone.
ATR Length / Mult (DBHF) — only used when mode = ATR. Larger values widen the do-nothing zone.
Percent / Ticks / Points — alternatives to ATR; pick what fits your market’s convention.
Enter Mult — scales the deadband you must clear before the baseline moves. Increase to filter more noise.
Response — fraction of the excess applied to baseline movement. Higher responds faster; lower is smoother.
Supertrend ATR Period & Factor — traditional band size controls; higher factor widens and flips less often.
Flip Offset ATR — extra ATR buffer required to flip. Useful in choppy regimes.
Adverse Stop K·ATR — per-trade danger brake that forces an exit if price moves K×ATR against entry.
UI — toggle baseline, supertrend, signals, and bar painting; choose long and short colors.
How to read it
Green regime — candles painted long and the Supertrend running below price. Pullbacks toward the baseline that fail to breach the opposite band often resume higher.
Red regime — candles painted short and the Supertrend running above price. Rallies that cannot reclaim the band may roll over.
Frequent side swaps — reduce sensitivity by increasing Enter Mult, using ATR mode, raising the Supertrend factor, or adding Flip Offset ATR.
Use cases
Bias filter — allow entries only in the direction of the current side. Use your preferred triggers inside that bias.
Trailing logic — treat the active band as a dynamic stop. If the side flips or an adverse K·ATR exit prints, reduce or close exposure.
Regime map — on higher timeframes, the combination baseline + band produces a clean up vs down template for allocation decisions.
Tuning guidance
Fast markets — ATR deadband, modest Enter Mult (0.8–1.2), response 0.2–0.35, Supertrend factor 1.7–2.2, small Flip Offset (0.2–0.5 ATR).
Choppy ranges — widen deadband or raise Enter Mult, lower response, and add more Flip Offset so flips require stronger evidence.
Slow trends — longer ATR periods and higher Supertrend factor to keep you on side longer; use a conservative adverse K.
Included alerts
DBHF ST Long — side flips to long.
DBHF ST Short — side flips to short.
Adverse Exit Long / Short — K·ATR stop triggers against the current side.
Strengths
Deadbanded baseline reduces micro whipsaws before Supertrend logic even begins.
Flip hysteresis adds a second layer of confirmation at the boundary.
Optional adverse ATR stop provides a uniform risk cut across assets and regimes.
Clear visuals and minimal parameters to adjust for symbol behavior.
Putting it together
Think of this tool as two decisions layered into one view. The deadband baseline answers “does this move even count,” then the Supertrend wrapped around that baseline answers “if it counts, which side should I be on and where do I flip.” When both parts agree you tend to stay on the correct side of a trend for longer, and when they disagree you get an early warning that conditions are changing.
When the baseline bends and price cannot reclaim the opposite band , momentum is usually continuing. Pullbacks into the baseline that stall before the far band often resolve in trend.
When the baseline flattens and the bands compress , expect indecision. Use the Flip Offset ATR to avoid reacting to the first feint. Wait for a clean band breach with follow through.
When an adverse K·ATR exit prints while the side has not flipped , treat it as a risk event rather than a full regime change. Many users cut size, re-enter only if the side reasserts, and let the next flip confirm a new trend.
Final thoughts
Deadband Hysteresis Supertrend is best read as a regime lens. The baseline defines your tolerance for noise, the bands define your trailing structure, and the flip offset plus adverse ATR stop define how forgiving or strict you want to be at the boundary. On strong trends it helps you hold through shallow shakeouts. In choppy conditions it encourages patience until price does something meaningful. Start with settings that reflect the cadence of your market, observe how often flips occur, then nudge the deadband and flip offset until the tool spends most of its time describing the move you care about rather than the noise in between.
Trend FriendTrend Friend — What it is and how to use it
I built Trend Friend to stop redrawing the same trendlines all day. It automatically connects confirmed swing points (fractals) and keeps the most relevant lines in front of you. The goal: give you clean, actionable structure without the guesswork.
What it does (in plain English)
Finds swing highs/lows using a Fractal Period you choose.
Draws auto-trendlines between the two most recent confirmed highs and the two most recent confirmed lows.
Colours by intent:
Lines drawn from highs (potential resistance / bearish) = Red
Lines drawn from lows (potential support / bullish) = Green
Keeps the chart tidy: The newest lines are styled as “recent,” older lines are dimmed as “historical,” and it prunes anything beyond your chosen limit.
Optional crosses & alerts: You can highlight when price closes across the most recent line and set alerts for new lines formed and upper/lower line crosses.
Structure labels: It tags HH, LH, HL, LL at the swing points, so you can quickly read trend/rotation.
How it works (under the hood)
A “fractal” here is a confirmed pivot: the highest high (or lowest low) with n bars on each side. That means pivots only confirm after n bars, so signals are cleaner and less noisy.
When a new pivot prints, the script connects it to the prior pivot of the same type (high→high, low→low). That gives you one “bearish” line from highs and one “bullish” line from lows.
The newest line is marked as recent (brighter), and the previous recent line becomes historical (dimmed). You can keep as many pairs as you want, but I usually keep it tight.
Inputs you’ll actually use
Fractal Period (n): this is the big one. It controls how swingy/strict the pivots are.
Lower n → more swings, more lines (faster, noisier)
Higher n → fewer swings, cleaner lines (slower, swing-trade friendly)
Max pair of lines: how many pairs (up+down) to keep on the chart. 1–3 is a sweet spot.
Extend: extend lines Right (my default) or Both ways if you like the context.
Line widths & colours: recent vs. historical are separate so you can make the active lines pop.
Show crosses: toggle the X markers when price crosses a line. I turn this on when I’m actively hunting breakouts/retests.
Reading the chart
Red lines (from highs): I treat these as potential resistance. A clean break + hold above a red line often flips me from “fade” to “follow.”
Green lines (from lows): Potential support. Same idea in reverse: break + hold below and I stop buying dips until I see structure reclaim.
HH / LH / HL / LL dots: quick read on structure.
HH/HL bias = uptrend continuation potential
LH/LL bias = downtrend continuation potential
Mixed prints = rotation/chop—tighten risk or wait for clarity.
My H1 guidance (fine-tuning Fractal Period)
If you’re mainly on H1 (my use case), tune like this:
Fast / aggressive: n = 6–8 (lots of signals, good for momentum days; more chop risk)
Balanced (recommended): n = 9–12 (keeps lines meaningful but responsive)
Slow / swing focus: n = 13–21 (filters noise; better for trend days and higher-TF confluence)
Rule of thumb: if you’re getting too many touches and whipsaws, increase n. If you’re late to obvious breaks, decrease n.
How I trade it (example workflow)
Pick your n for the session (H1: start at 9–12).
Mark the recent red & green lines. That’s your immediate structure.
Look for interaction:
Rejections from a line = fade potential back into the range.
Break + close across a line = watch the retest for continuation.
Confirm with context: session bias, HTF structure, and your own tools (VWAP, RSI, volume, FVG/OB, etc.).
Plan the trade: enter on retest or reclaim, stop beyond the line/last swing, target the opposite side or next structure.
Alerts (set and forget)
“New trendline formed” — fires when a new high/low pivot confirms and a fresh line is drawn.
“Upper/lower trendline crossed” — fires when price crosses the most recent red/green line.
Use these to track structure shifts without staring at the screen.
Good to know (honest limitations)
Confirmation lag: pivots need n bars on both sides, so signals arrive after the swing confirms. That’s by design—less noise, fewer fake lines.
Lines update as structure evolves: when a new pivot forms, the previous “recent” line becomes “historical,” and older ones can be removed based on your max setting.
Not an auto trendline crystal ball: it won’t predict which line holds or breaks—it just keeps the most relevant structure clean and up to date.
Final notes
Works on any timeframe; I built it with H1 in mind and scale to H4/D1 by increasing n.
Pairs nicely with session tools and VWAP for intraday, or with supply/demand / FVGs for swing planning.
Risk first: lines are structure, not guarantees. Manage position size and stops as usual.
Not financial advice. Trade your plan. Stay nimble.
BUY & SELL Probability (M5..D1) - MTFMTF Probability Indicator (M5 to D1)
Indicator — Dual Histogram with Buy/Sell Labels
This indicator is designed to provide a probabilistic bias for bullish or bearish conditions by combining three different analytical components across multiple timeframes. The goal is to reduce noise from single-indicator signals and instead highlight confluence where trend, momentum, and strength agree.
Why this combination is useful
- EMA(200) Trend Filter: Identifies whether price is trading above or below a widely used long-term moving average.
- MACD Momentum: Detects short-term directional momentum through line crossovers.
- ADX Strength: Measures how strong the trend is, preventing signals in weak or flat markets.
By combining these, the indicator avoids situations where one tool signals a trade but others do not, helping to filter out low-probability setups.
How it works
- Each timeframe (M5, M15, H1, H4, D1) generates its own trend, momentum, and strength score.
- Scores are weighted according to user-defined importance and then aggregated into a single probability.
- Proximity to recent support and resistance levels can adjust the final score, accounting for nearby barriers.
- The final probability is displayed as:
- Histogram (subwindow): Green bars for bullish probability >50%, red bars for bearish <50%.
- On-chart labels: Showing exact buy/sell percentages on the last bar for quick reference.
Inputs
- EMA length (default 200), MACD settings, ADX period.
- Weights for each timeframe and component (trend, momentum, strength).
- Optional boost for the chart’s current timeframe.
- Smoothing length for probability values.
- Lookback period for support/resistance adjustment.
How to use it
- A green histogram above zero indicates bullish probability >50%.
- A red histogram below zero indicates bearish probability >50%.
- Neutral readings near 50% show low confluence and may be best avoided.
- Users can adjust weights to emphasize higher or lower timeframes, depending on their trading style.
Notes
- This script does not guarantee profitable trades.
- Best used together with price action, volume, or additional confirmation tools.
- Signals are calculated only on closed bars to avoid repainting.
- For testing and learning purposes — not financial advice.
