Rifle LONG Rifle Shooter Long Indicator
Provides buy/sell signals on DOW symbols including YM, MYM, and US30. Algorithm monitors price action for a drop of price of X points within N minutes. On achieving this drop, the algorithm waits for the price action to drop below one of three levels. Levels end in 23/43/73. For example, 42223 or 42273. Once dropping below the level the algorithm is considered setup if the RSI is below 30. Once setup, it will remain setup until the RSI exceeds 30 or a buy signal is triggered. A buy signal triggers when setup and the following conditions are achieved: 1) price action rises above the level, change in RSI indicates an end/exhaustion of the price drop, and the bar has positive upward momentum.
After signal entry a customizable stop loss and take profit are plotted on the chart adjusting to price action. It will signal exit accordingly.
Requirements for use:
1) 30 second chart
2) Dow symbol
The script has a matching indicator for the SHORT entry. Both indicators rely on common cod within the RifleShooterLib library.
Additionally, the BackTesterLib library is used to provide backtesting statistics and presentation.

Z Score Overlay [BigBeluga]🔵 OVERVIEW
A clean and effective Z-score overlay that visually tracks how far price deviates from its moving average. By standardizing price movements, this tool helps traders understand when price is statistically extended or compressed—up to ±4 standard deviations. The built-in scale and real-time bin markers offer immediate context on where price stands in relation to its recent mean.
🔵 CONCEPTS
Z Score Calculation:
Z = (Close − SMA) ÷ Standard Deviation
This formula shows how many standard deviations the current price is from its mean.
Statistical Extremes:
• Z > +2 or Z < −2 suggests statistically significant deviation.
• Z near 0 implies price is close to its average.
Standardization of Price Behavior: Makes it easier to compare volatility and overextension across timeframes and assets.
🔵 FEATURES
Colored Z Line: Gradient coloring based on how far price deviates—
• Red = oversold (−4),
• Green = overbought (+4),
• Yellow = neutral (~0).
Deviation Scale Bar: A vertical scale from −4 to +4 standard deviations plotted to the right of price.
Active Z Score Bin: Highlights the current Z-score bin with a “◀” arrow
Context Labels: Clear numeric labels for each Z-level from −4 to +4 along the side.
Live Value Display: Shows exact Z-score on the active level.
Non-intrusive Overlay: Can be applied directly to price chart without changing scaling behavior.
🔵 HOW TO USE
Identify overbought/oversold areas based on +2 / −2 thresholds.
Spot potential mean reversion trades when Z returns from extreme levels.
Confirm strong trends when price remains consistently outside ±2.
Use in multi-timeframe setups to compare strength across contexts.
🔵 CONCLUSION
Z Score Overlay transforms raw price action into a normalized statistical view, allowing traders to easily assess deviation strength and mean-reversion potential. The intuitive scale and color-coded display make it ideal for traders seeking objective, volatility-aware entries and exits.
Enhanced S/D Boring-Explosive [Visual Clean]**Enhanced S/D Boring-Explosive \ **
The Enhanced S/D Boring-Explosive Indicator uniquely combines Supply and Demand zones with volatility-based candle detection ("boring" and "explosive" candles), visually highlighting precise market reversals and breakout opportunities clearly on your chart.
= Key Features:
* **Dynamic Supply/Demand Zones**: Automatically detects recent significant pivot highs and lows, creating clearly defined Supply (red) and Demand (green) zones, aiding traders in pinpointing potential reversal areas.
* **Volatility-Based Candle Classification**:
* **Boring Candles (Yellow Dot)**: Identifies low-volatility candles using Adaptive Average True Range (ATR), signaling potential market indecision or accumulation phases.
* **Explosive Candles (Orange Arrow)**: Highlights candles with significant breakouts immediately following a "boring" candle, suggesting strong directional momentum.
* **Multi-Timeframe (MTF) Analysis Panel**: Provides clear visual feedback of higher timeframe sentiment directly on your chart, improving context and confirmation of trading signals.
* **Clean Visual Interface**: Designed to reduce clutter and enhance readability with clearly distinguishable symbols and zones.
- How it Works (Conceptual Overview):
This indicator uses:
* **Adaptive ATR** to determine candle volatility, categorizing them into two types:
* **Boring candles**: Marked when the candle’s total range and body size are significantly lower than typical volatility (customizable via input).
* **Explosive candles**: Identified when a candle dramatically breaks the high or low of a previously marked "boring candle," indicating strong breakout momentum.
* **Supply/Demand Zones**: Calculated dynamically by locating pivot highs and lows, defining areas of likely institutional order accumulation and distribution, which are prime reversal or breakout zones.
- Practical Use Cases & Examples:
* **Timeframes and Markets**: Ideal for intraday trading (5-minute to 1-hour charts) and swing trading (4-hour to Daily charts), particularly effective on volatile markets such as Forex (EUR/USD, GBP/USD), commodities (Gold - XAU/USD), and major cryptocurrencies.
* **Trading Signals**:
* **Reversal Trading**: Enter trades near identified Supply (sell) or Demand (buy) zones upon confirmation by an explosive candle.
* **Breakout Trading**: Explosive candles breaking above/below Supply/Demand zones indicate potential breakout trades.
* **MTF Confirmation**: Higher timeframe status (MTF panel) strengthens trade confidence. For example, a lower timeframe explosive candle aligning with a higher timeframe "Explosive" status enhances trade conviction.
- Alerts Included:
* Immediate alerts for both "Boring Candles" (anticipating possible breakouts) and "Explosive Breakouts" (clear entry signals), allowing efficient and timely market entry.
- Why Closed-Source?
The indicator employs an optimized proprietary volatility-based algorithm combined with advanced pivot detection logic. Keeping it closed-source protects this unique intellectual property, ensuring its continued effectiveness and exclusivity for our user base.

Tensor Market Analysis Engine (TMAE)# Tensor Market Analysis Engine (TMAE)
## Advanced Multi-Dimensional Mathematical Analysis System
*Where Quantum Mathematics Meets Market Structure*
---
## 🎓 THEORETICAL FOUNDATION
The Tensor Market Analysis Engine represents a revolutionary synthesis of three cutting-edge mathematical frameworks that have never before been combined for comprehensive market analysis. This indicator transcends traditional technical analysis by implementing advanced mathematical concepts from quantum mechanics, information theory, and fractal geometry.
### 🌊 Multi-Dimensional Volatility with Jump Detection
**Hawkes Process Implementation:**
The TMAE employs a sophisticated Hawkes process approximation for detecting self-exciting market jumps. Unlike traditional volatility measures that treat price movements as independent events, the Hawkes process recognizes that market shocks cluster and exhibit memory effects.
**Mathematical Foundation:**
```
Intensity λ(t) = μ + Σ α(t - Tᵢ)
```
Where market jumps at times Tᵢ increase the probability of future jumps through the decay function α, controlled by the Hawkes Decay parameter (0.5-0.99).
**Mahalanobis Distance Calculation:**
The engine calculates volatility jumps using multi-dimensional Mahalanobis distance across up to 5 volatility dimensions:
- **Dimension 1:** Price volatility (standard deviation of returns)
- **Dimension 2:** Volume volatility (normalized volume fluctuations)
- **Dimension 3:** Range volatility (high-low spread variations)
- **Dimension 4:** Correlation volatility (price-volume relationship changes)
- **Dimension 5:** Microstructure volatility (intrabar positioning analysis)
This creates a volatility state vector that captures market behavior impossible to detect with traditional single-dimensional approaches.
### 📐 Hurst Exponent Regime Detection
**Fractal Market Hypothesis Integration:**
The TMAE implements advanced Rescaled Range (R/S) analysis to calculate the Hurst exponent in real-time, providing dynamic regime classification:
- **H > 0.6:** Trending (persistent) markets - momentum strategies optimal
- **H < 0.4:** Mean-reverting (anti-persistent) markets - contrarian strategies optimal
- **H ≈ 0.5:** Random walk markets - breakout strategies preferred
**Adaptive R/S Analysis:**
Unlike static implementations, the TMAE uses adaptive windowing that adjusts to market conditions:
```
H = log(R/S) / log(n)
```
Where R is the range of cumulative deviations and S is the standard deviation over period n.
**Dynamic Regime Classification:**
The system employs hysteresis to prevent regime flipping, requiring sustained Hurst values before regime changes are confirmed. This prevents false signals during transitional periods.
### 🔄 Transfer Entropy Analysis
**Information Flow Quantification:**
Transfer entropy measures the directional flow of information between price and volume, revealing lead-lag relationships that indicate future price movements:
```
TE(X→Y) = Σ p(yₜ₊₁, yₜ, xₜ) log
```
**Causality Detection:**
- **Volume → Price:** Indicates accumulation/distribution phases
- **Price → Volume:** Suggests retail participation or momentum chasing
- **Balanced Flow:** Market equilibrium or transition periods
The system analyzes multiple lag periods (2-20 bars) to capture both immediate and structural information flows.

RSI Mean ReversionRSI Mean Reversion Strategy - Volatility Optimized
This strategy combines RSI mean reversion signals with intelligent market filtering and volatility-adapted risk management to maximize performance across different market conditions.
What it does: Identifies high-probability reversal opportunities when RSI reaches extreme levels (≤30 oversold, ≥70 overbought), but only trades when market conditions favor mean reversion strategies.
How it works:
RSI Signals: 14-period RSI identifies oversold/overbought extremes
Smart Filtering: Avoids strong trending markets (>25% trend strength) where mean reversion fails
Volatility Adapted: 20% stop loss accommodates natural price fluctuations in volatile assets
Position Scaling: 5% equity per trade with pyramiding capability for strong setups
Trend Awareness: Uses 50-period MA to determine market direction
Key Features:
Volatility Optimized: 20% stop loss prevents premature exits in normal market noise
Risk Management: 1:1 risk/reward ratio (20% stop loss, 20% profit target)
Market Intelligence: Real-time suitability analysis prevents trading in unfavorable conditions
Automation Ready: Built-in alert conditions for automated execution
Visual Indicators:
Green background = Oversold in suitable market (BUY zone)
Red background = Overbought in suitable market (SELL zone)

Option Selling Signals with ExitsOption Selling Signal System with Volume-Based Entry and Exit Logic
This script identifies optimal moments to sell options by combining volume distribution analysis with trend confirmation, specifically designed to capitalize on market inefficiencies in option pricing.
What it does:
Generates signals for selling call and put options with corresponding exit signals, using volume distribution as the primary filter combined with moving average trend confirmation and RSI momentum.
How it works:
The script analyzes volume distribution over a 63-day lookback period (approximately 3 months of trading data) to determine market sentiment:
Volume Analysis: Calculates total volume above and below current price levels
Trend Filter: Uses 50-period moving average to confirm market direction
Momentum Check: RSI (14-period) validates entry timing
Signal Spacing: Prevents overlapping signals with minimum 5-bar separation
Why this combination works:
Unlike standard option selling strategies that rely solely on volatility or Greeks, this approach uses volume distribution to identify when most trading activity occurred below current prices (bullish setup for call selling) or above current prices (bearish setup for put selling). The moving average filter prevents counter-trend trades, while RSI confirms momentum alignment.
Trading Logic:
Sell Call Options: When majority of volume is below current price + price above MA + RSI below 50
Sell Put Options: When majority of volume is above current price + price below MA + RSI above 50
Exit Signals: Automatically generated when conditions reverse
How to use:
Apply to daily timeframe or higher (not suitable for intraday)
Red labels = Open call short positions
Orange labels = Close call short positions
Green labels = Open put short positions
Dark green labels = Close put short positions
Settings:
Lookback Period: 63 days (adjust for different market memory)
Moving Average Length: 50 periods (trend confirmation filter)
This methodology addresses the common problem of selling options without proper market structure analysis, providing both entry and exit signals based on actual trading activity rather than just price action.
Average Day Range(%)Average Day Range in percentages. This indicator shows that average movement of the stock price in last n number of candles in percentages. This gives you an idea of the volatility of the stock's price.
Volume Zones IndicatorVolume Zones Indicator — VWAP with Dynamic Monthly Volume Zones
This indicator is an enhanced version of the classic VWAP (Volume Weighted Average Price), designed to create clear monthly zones around VWAP based on average price range (ATR) and volume activity.
The core idea is to highlight key zones where price is more likely to reverse or consolidate, based on where significant trading volume occurs.
How does it work?
VWAP is calculated over the last N days (set by the lookbackPeriod input).
Four zones are plotted above and below VWAP, spaced using a multiple of ATR.
Each zone has its own color for clarity:
Blue — closest to VWAP
Red — second band
Green — third band
Orange — outer band (potential breakout or exhaustion zone)
If the current volume exceeds the moving average of volume, it is highlighted directly on the chart. This helps detect accumulation or distribution moments more easily.
What does the trader see?
You see horizontal colored bands on the chart that update at the start of each new month. These zones:
Remain fixed throughout the month
Automatically adjust based on recent volume and volatility
Act as dynamic support/resistance levels
Best used for:
Mean reversion strategies — identifying pullbacks toward value areas
Support and resistance mapping — automatic SR zones based on price/volume behavior
Breakout filtering — when price reaches zone 3 or 4, trend continuation or reversal is likely
Adding volume context to price action — works well with candlestick and pattern analysis
Settings
Lookback Period (Days): VWAP and volume smoothing length
Volume Area Threshold %: Reserved for future functionality
Works on any timeframe; best suited for 4H timeframe.
Zones are calculated and fixed monthly for clean visual context
Combines price structure with actual volume flow for more reliable decision-making
Adaptive Cycle Oscillator with EMADescription of the Adaptive Cycle Oscillator with EMA Pine Script
This Pine Script, titled "Adaptive Cycle Oscillator with EMA", is a custom technical indicator designed for TradingView to help traders analyze market cycles and identify potential buy or sell opportunities. It combines an Adaptive Cycle Oscillator (ACO) with multiple Exponential Moving Averages (EMAs), displayed as colorful, wavy lines, and includes features like buy/sell signals and divergence detection. Below is a beginner-friendly explanation of how the script works, adhering to TradingView's Script Publishing Rules.
What This Indicator Does
The Adaptive Cycle Oscillator with EMA helps you:
Visualize market cycles using an oscillator that adapts to price movements.
Track trends with seven EMAs of different lengths, plotted as a rainbow of wavy lines.
Identify potential buy or sell signals when the oscillator crosses predefined thresholds.
Spot divergences between the oscillator and price to anticipate reversals.
Use customizable settings to adjust the indicator to your trading style.
Note: This is a technical analysis tool and does not guarantee profits. Always combine it with other analysis methods and practice risk management.
Step-by-Step Explanation for New Users
1. Understanding the Indicator
Adaptive Cycle Oscillator (ACO): The ACO analyzes price data (based on high, low, and close prices, or HLC3) to detect market cycles. It smooths price movements to create an oscillator that swings between overbought and oversold levels.
EMAs: Seven EMAs of different lengths are applied to the ACO and scaled based on the market's dominant cycle. These EMAs are plotted as colorful, wavy lines to show trend direction.
Buy/Sell Signals: The script generates signals when the ACO crosses above or below user-defined thresholds, indicating potential entry or exit points.
Divergence Detection: The script identifies bullish or bearish divergences between the ACO and the fastest EMA, which may signal potential reversals.
Visual Style: The indicator uses a rainbow of seven colors (red, orange, yellow, green, blue, indigo, violet) for the EMAs, with wavy lines for a unique visual effect. Static levels (zero, overbought, oversold) are also wavy for consistency.
2. How to Add the Indicator to Your Chart
Open TradingView and load the chart of any asset (e.g., stock, forex, crypto).
Click on the Indicators button at the top of the chart.
Search for "Adaptive Cycle Oscillator with EMA" (or paste the script into TradingView’s Pine Editor if you have access to it).
Click to add the indicator to your chart. It will appear in a separate panel below the price chart.
3. Customizing the Indicator
The script offers several input options to tailor it to your needs:
Base Cycle Length (Default: 20): Sets the initial period for calculating the dominant cycle. Higher values make the indicator slower; lower values make it more sensitive.
Alpha Smoothing (Default: 0.07): Controls how much the ACO smooths price data. Smaller values produce smoother results.
Show Buy/Sell Signals (Default: True): Toggle to display green triangles (buy) and red triangles (sell) on the chart.
Threshold (Default: 0.0): Defines overbought (above threshold) and oversold (below threshold) levels. Adjust to widen or narrow signal zones.
EMA Base Length (Default: 10): Sets the starting length for the fastest EMA. Other EMAs are incrementally longer (12, 14, 16, etc.).
Divergence Lookback (Default: 14): Determines how far back the script looks to detect divergences.
To adjust these:
Right-click the indicator on your chart and select Settings.
Modify the inputs in the pop-up window.
Click OK to apply changes.
4. Reading the Indicator
Oscillator and EMAs: The ACO and seven EMAs are plotted in a separate panel. The EMAs (colored lines) move in a wavy pattern:
Red (fastest) to Violet (slowest) represent different response speeds.
When the faster EMAs (e.g., red, orange) are above slower ones (e.g., blue, violet), it suggests bullish momentum, and vice versa.
Zero Line: A gray wavy line at zero acts as a neutral level. The ACO above zero indicates bullish conditions; below zero indicates bearish conditions.
Overbought/Oversold Lines: Red (overbought) and green (oversold) wavy lines mark threshold levels. Extreme ACO values near these lines may suggest reversals.
Buy/Sell Signals:
Green Triangle (Bottom): Appears when the ACO crosses above the oversold threshold, suggesting a potential buy.
Red Triangle (Top): Appears when the ACO crosses below the overbought threshold, suggesting a potential sell.
Divergences:
Green Triangle (Bottom): Indicates a bullish divergence (price makes a lower low, but the EMA makes a higher low), hinting at a potential upward reversal.
Red Triangle (Top): Indicates a bearish divergence (price makes a higher high, but the EMA makes a lower high), hinting at a potential downward reversal.
5. Using Alerts
You can set alerts for key events:
Right-click the indicator and select Add Alert.
Choose a condition (e.g., "ACO Buy Signal", "Bullish Divergence").
Configure the alert settings (e.g., notify via email, app, or pop-up).
Click Create to activate the alert.
Available alert conditions:
ACO Buy Signal: When the ACO crosses above the oversold threshold.
ACO Sell Signal: When the ACO crosses below the overbought threshold.
Bullish Divergence: When a potential upward reversal is detected.
Bearish Divergence: When a potential downward reversal is detected.
6. Tips for Using the Indicator
Combine with Other Tools: Use the indicator alongside support/resistance levels, candlestick patterns, or other indicators (e.g., RSI, MACD) for confirmation.
Test on Different Timeframes: The indicator works on any timeframe (e.g., 1-minute, daily). Shorter timeframes may produce more signals but with more noise.
Practice Risk Management: Never rely solely on this indicator. Set stop-losses and position sizes to manage risk.
Backtest First: Use TradingView’s Strategy Tester (if you convert the script to a strategy) to evaluate performance on historical data.

Wavelet-Trend ML Integration [Alpha Extract]Alpha-Extract Volatility Quality Indicator
The Alpha-Extract Volatility Quality (AVQ) Indicator provides traders with deep insights into market volatility by measuring the directional strength of price movements. This sophisticated momentum-based tool helps identify overbought and oversold conditions, offering actionable buy and sell signals based on volatility trends and standard deviation bands.
🔶 CALCULATION
The indicator processes volatility quality data through a series of analytical steps:
Bar Range Calculation: Measures true range (TR) to capture price volatility.
Directional Weighting: Applies directional bias (positive for bullish candles, negative for bearish) to the true range.
VQI Computation: Uses an exponential moving average (EMA) of weighted volatility to derive the Volatility Quality Index (VQI).
Smoothing: Applies an additional EMA to smooth the VQI for clearer signals.
Normalization: Optionally normalizes VQI to a -100/+100 scale based on historical highs and lows.
Standard Deviation Bands: Calculates three upper and lower bands using standard deviation multipliers for volatility thresholds.
Signal Generation: Produces overbought/oversold signals when VQI reaches extreme levels (±200 in normalized mode).
Formula:
Bar Range = True Range (TR)
Weighted Volatility = Bar Range × (Close > Open ? 1 : Close < Open ? -1 : 0)
VQI Raw = EMA(Weighted Volatility, VQI Length)
VQI Smoothed = EMA(VQI Raw, Smoothing Length)
VQI Normalized = ((VQI Smoothed - Lowest VQI) / (Highest VQI - Lowest VQI) - 0.5) × 200
Upper Band N = VQI Smoothed + (StdDev(VQI Smoothed, VQI Length) × Multiplier N)
Lower Band N = VQI Smoothed - (StdDev(VQI Smoothed, VQI Length) × Multiplier N)
🔶 DETAILS
Visual Features:
VQI Plot: Displays VQI as a line or histogram (lime for positive, red for negative).
Standard Deviation Bands: Plots three upper and lower bands (teal for upper, grayscale for lower) to indicate volatility thresholds.
Reference Levels: Horizontal lines at 0 (neutral), +100, and -100 (in normalized mode) for context.
Zone Highlighting: Overbought (⋎ above bars) and oversold (⋏ below bars) signals for extreme VQI levels (±200 in normalized mode).
Candle Coloring: Optional candle overlay colored by VQI direction (lime for positive, red for negative).
Interpretation:
VQI ≥ 200 (Normalized): Overbought condition, strong sell signal.
VQI 100–200: High volatility, potential selling opportunity.
VQI 0–100: Neutral bullish momentum.
VQI 0 to -100: Neutral bearish momentum.
VQI -100 to -200: High volatility, strong bearish momentum.
VQI ≤ -200 (Normalized): Oversold condition, strong buy signal.
🔶 EXAMPLES
Overbought Signal Detection: When VQI exceeds 200 (normalized), the indicator flags potential market tops with a red ⋎ symbol.
Example: During strong uptrends, VQI reaching 200 has historically preceded corrections, allowing traders to secure profits.
Oversold Signal Detection: When VQI falls below -200 (normalized), a lime ⋏ symbol highlights potential buying opportunities.
Example: In bearish markets, VQI dropping below -200 has marked reversal points for profitable long entries.
Volatility Trend Tracking: The VQI plot and bands help traders visualize shifts in market momentum.
Example: A rising VQI crossing above zero with widening bands indicates strengthening bullish momentum, guiding traders to hold or enter long positions.
Dynamic Support/Resistance: Standard deviation bands act as dynamic volatility thresholds during price movements.
Example: Price reversals often occur near the third standard deviation bands, providing reliable entry/exit points during volatile periods.
🔶 SETTINGS
Customization Options:
VQI Length: Adjust the EMA period for VQI calculation (default: 14, range: 1–50).
Smoothing Length: Set the EMA period for smoothing (default: 5, range: 1–50).
Standard Deviation Multipliers: Customize multipliers for bands (defaults: 1.0, 2.0, 3.0).
Normalization: Toggle normalization to -100/+100 scale and adjust lookback period (default: 200, min: 50).
Display Style: Switch between line or histogram plot for VQI.
Candle Overlay: Enable/disable VQI-colored candles (lime for positive, red for negative).
The Alpha-Extract Volatility Quality Indicator empowers traders with a robust tool to navigate market volatility. By combining directional price range analysis with smoothed volatility metrics, it identifies overbought and oversold conditions, offering clear buy and sell signals. The customizable standard deviation bands and optional normalization provide precise context for market conditions, enabling traders to make informed decisions across various market cycles.
Frahm FactorIntended Usage of the Frahm Factor Indicator
The Frahm Factor is designed to give you a rapid, at-a-glance assessment of how volatile the market is right now—and how large the average candle has been—over the most recent 24-hour window. Here’s how to put it to work:
Gauge Volatility Regimes
Volatility Score (1–10)
A low score (1–3, green) signals calm seas—tight ranges, low risk of big moves.
A mid score (4–6, yellow) warns you that volatility is picking up.
A high score (7–10, red) tells you to prepare for disorderly swings or breakout opportunities.
How to trade off it
In low-volatility periods, you might favor mean-reversion or range-bound strategies.
As the score climbs into the red zone, consider widening stops, scaling back position size, or switching to breakout momentum plays.
Monitor Average Candle Size
Avg Candle (ticks) cell shows you the mean true-range of each bar over that 24h window in ticks.
When candles are small, you know the market is consolidating and liquidity may be thin.
When candles are large, momentum and volume are driving strong directional bias.
The optional dynamic color ramp (green→yellow→red) immediately flags when average bar size is unusually small or large versus its own 24h history.
Customize & Stay Flexible
Timeframes: Works on any intraday chart—from 1-minute scalping to 4-hour swing setups—because it always looks back exactly 24 hours.
Toggles:
Show or hide the Volatility and Avg-Candle cells to keep your screen uncluttered.
Turn on the dynamic color ramp only when you want that extra visual cue.
Alerts: Built-in alerts fire automatically at meaningful thresholds (Volatility ≥ 8 or ≤ 3), so you’ll never miss regime shifts, even if you step away.
Real-World Applications
Risk Management: Automatically adjust your stop-loss distances or position sizing based on the current volatility band.
Strategy Selection: Flip between range-trading and momentum strategies as the volatility regime changes.
Session Analysis: Pinpoint when during the day volatility typically ramps—perfect for doorway sessions like London opening or the US midday news spikes.
Bottom line: the Frahm Factor gives you one compact dashboard to see the pulse of the market—so you can make choices with conviction, dial your risk in real time, and never be caught off guard by sudden volatility shifts.
Logic Behind the Frahm Factor Indicator
24-Hour Rolling Window
On every intraday bar, we append that bar’s True Range (TR) and timestamp to two arrays.
We then prune any entries older than 24 hours, so the arrays always reflect exactly the last day of data.
Volatility Score (1–10)
We count how many of those 24 h TR values are less than or equal to the current bar’s TR.
Dividing by the total array size gives a percentile (0–1), which we scale and round into a 1–10 score.
Average Candle Size (ticks)
We sum all TR values in the same 24 h window, divide by array length to get the mean TR, then convert that price range into ticks.
Optionally, a green→yellow→red ramp highlights when average bar size is unusually small, medium or large versus its own 24 h history.
Color & Alerts
The Volatility cell flips green (1–3), yellow (4–6) or red (7–10) so you see regime shifts at a glance.
Built-in alertcondition calls fire when the score crosses your high (≥ 8) or low (≤ 3) thresholds.
Modularity
Everything—table location, which cells to show, dynamic coloring—is controlled by simple toggles, so you can strip it back or layer on extra visual cues as needed.
That’s the full recipe: a true 24 h look-back, a percentile-ranked volatility gauge, and a mean-bar-size meter, all wrapped into one compact dashboard.
Adaptive RSI (ARSI)# Adaptive RSI (ARSI) - Dynamic Momentum Oscillator
Adaptive RSI is an advanced momentum oscillator that dynamically adjusts its calculation period based on real-time market volatility and cycle analysis. Unlike traditional RSI that uses fixed periods, ARSI continuously adapts to market conditions, providing more accurate overbought/oversold signals and reducing false signals during varying market phases.
## How It Works
At its core, ARSI calculates an adaptive period ranging from 8 to 28 bars using two key components: volatility measurement through Average True Range (ATR) and cycle detection via price momentum analysis. The logic is straightforward:
- **High volatility periods** trigger shorter calculation periods for enhanced responsiveness to rapid price movements
- **Low volatility periods** extend the calculation window for smoother, more reliable signals
- **Market factor** combines volatility and cycle analysis to determine optimal RSI period in real-time
When RSI crosses above 70, the market enters overbought territory. When it falls below 30, oversold conditions emerge. The indicator also features extreme levels at 80/20 for stronger reversal signals and midline crossovers at 50 for trend confirmation.
The adaptive mechanism ensures the oscillator remains sensitive during critical market movements while filtering out noise during consolidation phases, making it superior to static RSI implementations across different market conditions.
## Features

## Signal Generation
ARSI generates multiple signal types for comprehensive market analysis:
**Primary Signals**: RSI crosses above 70 (overbought) or below 30 (oversold) - most reliable entry/exit points
**Extreme Signals**: RSI reaches 80+ (extreme overbought) or 20- (extreme oversold) - potential reversal zones
**Trend Signals**: RSI crosses above/below 50 midline - confirms directional momentum
**Reversal Signals**: Price action contradicts extreme RSI levels - early turning point detection
The adaptive period changes provide additional confirmation - signals accompanied by significant period shifts often carry higher probability of success.

RMSE Bollinger Bands + Loop | Lyro RSRMSE Bollinger Bands + Loops
Overview
The RMSE Bollinger Bands + Loops is a sophisticated technical analysis tool designed to identify and quantify market trends by combining dynamic moving averages with statistical measures. This indicator employs a multi-model approach, integrating Bollinger-style RMSE bands, momentum scoring, and a hybrid signal system to provide traders with adaptive insights across varying market conditions.
Indicator Modes
Bollinger-style RMSE Bands: this mode calculates dynamic volatility bands around the price using the following formula:
Upper Band = Dynamic Moving Average + (RMSE × Multiplier)
Lower Band = Dynamic Moving Average - (RMSE × Multiplier)
These bands adjust to market volatility, helping identify potential breakout or breakdown points.
For-Loop Momentum Scoring, momentum is assessed by analyzing recent price behavior through a looping mechanism. A rising momentum score indicates increasing bullish strength, while a declining score suggests growing bearish momentum.
Hybrid Combined Signal: this mode assigns a directional score to the other two modes:
+1 for bullish (green)
–1 for bearish (red)
An average of these scores is computed to generate a combined signal, offering a consolidated market trend indication.
Practical Application
Signal Interpretation: A buy signal is generated when both the RMSE Bands and For-Loop Momentum Scoring align bullishly. Conversely, a sell signal is indicated when both are bearish.
Trend Confirmation: The Hybrid Combined Signal provides a consolidated view, assisting traders in confirming the prevailing market trend.
Note: Always consider additional technical analysis tools and risk management strategies when making trading decisions.

ATR Screener with Labels and ShapesWeekly Daily ATR Pine Scanner
To find out tightness or contraction in a stock we needs to check if volatality is decreasing as well as compared to previous 14 or 10 bars volatility . we check this for weekly and then for Daily , so that we can enter in a stock which is tightest in recent times.
Condition is :
1. Weekly Candle ATR x 0.8 < 10 Week ATR
2. Daily Candle ATR x 0.6 < 14 Day ATR
When both of the conditions are met then they signifies that the stock has tightened in weekly and daily aswell . so now we can find ways to enter during max squeeze.
How to scan in Pine Scanner ?
FIrst add indicator as favourite and Go to pine scanner page in trading view and then scan your watchlist and there you will see 3 columns 1 with only Weekly conditions met , 2 with only Daily and 3rd with Both conditions met .
Select stocks and move to new watchlist and now you have those stocks which has contracted the most in recent times .
Timeframe LoopThe Timeframe Loop publication aims to visualize intrabar price progression in a new, different way.
🔶 CONCEPTS and USAGE
I got inspiration from the Pressure/Volume loop, which is used in Mechanical Ventilation with Critical Care patients to visualize pressure/volume evolution during inhalation/exhalation.
The main idea is that intrabar prices are visualized by a loop, going to the right during the first half and returning to the left towards its closing point. Here, the main chart timeframe (CTF) is 4 hours, and we see the movements of eight 30-minute lower timeframe (LTF) periods, highlighted by four yellow dots/lines (first 2 hours -> "Right") and four blue dots/lines (last 2 hours <- "Left"):
🔹 BTF
If "Show Lowest TF" is enabled, the LTF is split into another lower TF (BTF - "Base TF"); in this case, the 30-minute LTF is split into 10 parts of 3 minutes (BTF):
Enabling "Loop Lowest TF" will enable the BTF to react similarly to the largest loop; from halfway, it will return to its startpoint:
Here is a more detailed example:
🔹 Mini-Candles
The included option "Mini-Candles" will bring even more detail, showing the LTF as Japanese candlesticks with user-defined colors and adjustable body width; in this example, the mini-candles associated with the first half (yellow lines/dots) are green/red, while blue/fuchsia in the second half (blue lines/dots):
CTF 10 minutes, LTF 1 minute, BTF 5 seconds
One can see the detailed intrabar price progression in one glance.
CTF 5 minutes, LTF 1 minute, BTF 5 seconds
If the LTF/BTF ratio, divided by two, results in a non-integer number, the right side will be a vertical line instead of just a turning point. In that case, the smaller, most right blue loop will be situated at the right of that line.
10 minutes / 1 minute = 10 -> 10 / 2 = 5 parts
5 minutes / 1 minute = 5 -> 5 / 2 = 2.5 parts
🔶 SETTINGS
🔹 Timeframes
Lower Timeframe 1
Lower Timeframe 2
No need to worry about the order of both timeframes; BTF will be the lowest TF of the 2, LTF the highest; both have to be lower than the main chart TF (CTF); otherwise, it will result in the error: "`Lower Timeframes` should be lower than current chart timeframe".
The ratio LTF / BTF should be equal or higher than 2; otherwise, this error will show: "`Lower Timeframe` should minimally be twice the `Base (smallest) Timeframe`"
Lastly, the ratio CTF / BTF should be lower than 500; otherwise, this error will pop up: "`Current Chart timeframe` / `Lower Timeframe` should be less than 500."
I have tried to capture runtime errors as best I could. If one should be triggered (red exclamation mark next to the title), it is best to increase the lowest TF.
🔹 Options
Show Lowest TF: Show BTF progression.
Loop Lowest TF: Enabling will let the BTF line return halfway.

🔹 Style
EWMA Volatility EstimatorThis script calculates EWMA Volatility (Exponentially Weighted Moving Average Volatility).
Commonly used model in financial risk management.
It estimates recent price volatility by applying more weight to the most recent returns, capturing volatility clustering while remaining responsive to fast market shifts.
The method uses a decay factor (λ) of 0.94, the standard value used in models like RiskMetrics, and converts the variance estimate into annualized volatility in percentage terms.
This is not a forecasting tool. It’s an estimator that reflects the magnitude of recent price moves in a statistically robust way.
It can be helpful for:
Understanding regime shifts in market behavior
Designing position sizing rules based on recent volatility
Filtering entries during high or low volatility phases
How It Works
Computes log returns of the closing price.
Squares the returns to get a proxy for variance.
Applies an exponential moving average to the squared returns using an equivalent EMA period based on λ = 0.94.
Converts the result to volatility by taking the square root and scaling to a percentage.
Key Characteristics
Backward-looking estimator
Reacts faster than standard rolling-window volatility
Smooths noise while still being sensitive to recent spikes

Percent Change of Range Candles - FullPercent Change of Range Candles – Full (PCR Full)
Description:
PCR Full is a custom momentum indicator that measures the percentage price change relative to a defined range, offering traders a unique way to evaluate strength, direction, and potential reversals in price movement.
How it works:
The main value (PCR) is calculated by comparing the price change over a selected number of candles (length) to the range between the highest high and lowest low in the same period.
This percentage change is normalized and visualized with dynamic candles on the subgraph.
Reference levels at +100, +50, 0, -50, and -100 serve as key zones to indicate potential overbought/oversold conditions, continuation, or neutrality.
How to read the indicator:
1. Trend continuation:
When PCR breaks above +50 and holds, it often confirms a strong bullish move.
Similarly, values below -50 and staying low signal a bearish continuation.
2. Wick behavior (volatility insight):
Long wicks on PCR candles suggest uncertainty or failed breakout attempts.
Short or no wicks with strong body color show stable momentum and conviction.
On the chart, multiple long wicks near -50 suggest bulls are attempting to push price upward, but lack the strength — until a confirmed breakout.
3. Polarity transition (Bearish to Bullish or vice versa):
A transition from negative PCR values to above zero shows that the market is possibly turning.
Especially if PCR climbs gradually and stabilizes above zero, it indicates a developing bullish phase.
Components:
Main PCR line: Color-coded (green for rising, red for falling).
Open Average (gray line): Smooths recent PCR values, indicating balance.
High/Low adaptive bands: Adjust dynamically to PCR polarity.
PCR Candles: Visualize OHLC of PCR data for enhanced interpretation.
Suggested use cases:
Enter trend trades when PCR crosses +50 or -50 with volume or price confirmation.
Watch for reversal signs near ±100 if PCR fails to break further.
Use 0 line as a neutral zone — markets hovering near 0 are often in consolidation.
Combine with price action or oscillators like RSI/MACD for additional signals.
Customization:
The length input allows users to define the range for PCR calculations, making it adjustable to various timeframes and strategies (scalping, intraday, swing).
