Z Bollinger BandsThis version of Bollinger Bands measures the average volatility. By taking the 75th percentile of the average absolute value of the difference between the Source and the Mean divided by the Standard Deviation and using that as our multiplier for our Bollinger bands we can have a statistically safe trading zone.
You notice that its dynamic, this is because it take into account the real volatility levels of a window and uses that to determine an appropriate multiplier. As always I hope you enjoy this release.
Z-score
Improved Z-ScoreStandard Z-Score scripts lack customization of parameters that I personally desire when doing quantitative analysis. This is an improved Z-Score Indicator to add to your charts that lets you customize various inputs.
Below are the current features:
1) Ticker Type - which data would you like to use for the ticker input - Open, High, Low, Close, OHLC4
2) Ticker Smoothing? - sometimes if you have noisy data, it could be useful to smooth the ticker with a very fast EMA. If this is set to true, the ticker data will be smoothed with an EMA with period that you specify.
3) Ticker Smoothing Period - if Ticker Smoothing? is set to true, this will allow you to specify the smoothing period of the fast EMA - I usually use a 3-period for all of my quantitative analysis, if I am using smoothing.
4) MA Type - Z-Scores are normalized by subtracting a moving average. This allows you to select either a Simple Moving Average (SMA) or an Exponential Moving Average (EMA) - the standard is to use SMA.
5) MA Period - the previous X number of bars that you would like to use for normalization. The default is set to 21 (this is roughly 1 month of trading days data for a daily chart).
5) Standard Deviation Period - Z-Scores are normalized by dividing by the standard deviation over X previous periods. This allows you the chance to customize. Default is 252 (this is roughly 1 year of trading days data for a daily chart).
I can add more features if folks are interested, let me know! I hope you like the script.

[Sidders]Std. Deviation from Mean/MA (Z-score)This indicator visualizes in a straight forward way the distance price is away from the mean in absolute standard deviations (Z-score) over a certain lookback period (can be configured). Additionally I've included a moving average of the distance, the MA type can be configured in the settings.
Personally using this indicator for some of my algo mean reversion strategies. Price reaching the extreme treshold (can be configured in settings, standard is 3) could be seen as a point where price will revert to the mean.
I've included alerts for when price crosses into extreme areas, as well as alerts for when crosses back into 'normal' territory again. Both are also plotted on the indicator through background coloring/shapes.
Since I've learned so much from other developers I've decided to open source the code. Let me know if you have any ideas on how to improve, I'll see if I can implement them.
Enjoy!
Z-Score DeltaHeavily modified from Z Score by jwammo12
Compares the z-score of two assets, the onscreen one and the reference one configured. If you're familiar, you can think of it as Bollinger Band Percent of Onscreen Asset minus the Bollinger Band Percent of Reference Asset.
It's compared off a simple moving average, due to how standard deviation is calculated.
I view this a more literal meaning of relative strength.
Has the ability to offset or delay in time one to another.
TODO: add MAD and MAD/STD.DEV views
Not my greatest work, but it's functional.
Heikin Multi Time Frame// How it Works \\
This script calculates the open and close prices of Heikin Ashi candles across multiple timeframes,
If the candle formed on that timeframe is green it will display in the table a green square, If the candle is red, the square will display red.
// Settings \\
You can change the colours of the plots
You can also Change any of the timeframes which the Heikin Ashi candles are being calculated on
// Use Case \\
Heikin Ashi candles are often used to give a smoother trend direction and help cancel out some of the noice/consolidation.
It can also be use as trend detection for multiple timeframes at once

Feel free to use the script, If you do use the scrip please just tag me as I am interested to see how people are using it. Good Luck!
Z-Score with Buy & Sell SignalsThis is my open-source indicator of z-score with buy and sell indicators.
I see there are other z-score indicators, I just am particular about how I like my z-scores calculated and so decided to make my own and add buy and sell signals to help guide me. And I figured I could share it openly here!
What is a Z-Score
A z-score is a statistical measures of the distance, in standard deviations, a value is from its given mean. It is expressed as a standard deviation (or SD). The further a value (in this case, a stock) is from their mean, the more likely a regression to the mean is possible (i.e. a return to the average). So if a stock is trading at 3 standard deviations away from its mean, then we can anticipate it wanting to regress back towards 1 to 0 standard deviations from its mean (i.e. sell off back to a value that brings it closer to that SD).
The inverse is true if it is trading below.
Z-Scores and Stocks
Stocks, like everything in nature, like to trade between -1 and +1 SD away from its mean. Anything above this, we can interpret that there is "stress" on the stock. Anything over 2.50 is tremendous stress on the stock and we can anticipate that it will want to revert to its mean in the near future and bring that value down to at least 1, ideally between the -0.5 and 0.5 range.
Please note, I set the standard VERY high for the indicator to issue a buy and sell signal (/=2.50). Lately with the volatility, stocks have been entering these ranges frequently and so there have been plenty of signals, but traditionally in a stable environment you may not get these signals. I set the bar extremely high because I want to avoid false buy and sell signals (you will still get them though, nothing is perfect!). So the value in this indicator is in interpreting the actual z-score itself, so please be sure you understand exactly what the Z-score is (see the description above).
How the indicator works
The indicator works by calculating the average Z-Score between a stocks high and low. This indicator will present the average deviation a stock has from its high and low average. The higher the Z-Score, the more "overbought" the stock is. The lower the z-score, the more "oversold" the stock is. It uses the previous 500 candles worth of data to calculate its SMA and its Standard deviation in order to calculate the z-score.
Anytime a stock trades 2.50 SDs or more above or below its mean, you will be presented with a Buy or Sell signal, as generally, statistically speaking, after something has travelled 2.50 SDs aware from its mean, there is an increased probability of a reversion happening.
You can use this indicator to determine whether the stock is trading within normal parameters or not and to help you in your analysis as to whether or not a stock could be shorted or longed.
I personally like this for swing trading on the 1 hour chart; however, this can be used on any time from 1 minute to 1 hour. It also allows you to track a stocks progress in its reversion to the mean.
Examples of it in Use:
Gold ETF (ARCA: GLD) on 1 minute
Dow Jones ETF (ARCA: DIA) on 1 minute (my favourite Stock!)
SPY ETF (ARCA: SPY) on 1 hour chart
Disclaimer:
This is not meant to be placed as a sole and single strategy. It should be used in COJUNCTION with your other strategies to help you make a determination.
No indicator is infallible and should never be relied on 100%!

Thanks everyone!
RSI, EMA, SMA Trendtrading - Oil Daytrading 1HThe Unitrend trading System produces trading recommendations on a pure Trend basis.
It is a Score based system.
--- How to use the System --
Simply adjust your capital you want to risk per trade and your TP Factor.
The TP Factor is the multiple of your risked Capital, also known as Risk/Reward ratio.
Furthermore you can toggle between a always Buy mode, to see if the System is better then market.
Compounding mode helps you to get a better understanding of your maximum drawdown with a total equity based approach.
--- How are Signals produced? ---
A score of 2 or 3 is a BUY signal.
You can count the score by looking at the lines above 1, or by reading the color.
Green is 3, yellow 2, orange 1 and red is 0.
The score is calculated by 3 conditions.
Each applying condition yields one point for the score.
The score resets each bar.
The rules are:
RSI > 45: Well known indicator, usually looks for reversal points but seems to produce above average results when above 45.
EMA(RSI) > SMA(RSI): My approach to momentum detection for the RSI movement, I consider a faster growing RSI as a good thing.
EMA(close) > SMA(close): My approach to trend detection for the market movement. Common Wisdom would be a fast SMA > slow SMA which I found to be too slow for the modern market.
Uptrend and Oversold Index Swing Trading System 8H--- Foreword ---
The Overbought and Oversold Index Swing Trading System or short: I11L Hypertrend primarily uses money management Strategies, EMA and SMA and my momentum Ideas for trying to produce satisfactory Alpha over a timespan of multiple years.
--- How does it Work? ---
It uses 20 different EMA's and SMA's to produce a score for each Bar.
It will credit one Point If the EMA is above the SMA.
A high score means that there is a strong Uptrend.
Spotting the strong Uptrend early is important.
The I11L Hypertrend System trys to spot the "UPTREND" by checking for a crossover of the Score(EMA) / Score(SMA).
A low score means that there is a strong Downtrend.
Its quite common to see a reversal to the mean after a Downtrend and spotting the bottom is important.
The System trys to spot the reversal, or "OVERSOLD" state by a crossunder of the Score(EMA) / Score(SMA).
--- What can i customize? ---
-> Trading Mode: You can choose between two different trading modes, Oversold and Overbought(trend) and Random Buys to check if your systems Profitfactor is actually better then market.
-> Work with the total equity: The system uses the initial capital per default for Backtesting purposes but seeing the maximum drawdown in a compounding mode might help!
-> Use a trailing SL: A TSL trys to not lose too much if the trade goes against your TP
-> Lookbackdistance for the Score: A higher Lookbackdistance results in a more lagging indicator. You have to find the balance between the confirmation of the Signal and the frontrunning.
-> Leverage: To see how your strategie and your maximum Drawdown with the total equity mode enabled would have performed.
-> Risk Capital per Trade unleveraged: How much the underlying asset can go against your position before the TSL hits, or the SL if no TSL is set.
-> TPFactor: Your risk/reward Ratio. If you risk 3% and you set the ratio to 1.2, you will have a TP at 3 * 1.2 = 3.6%
-> Select Date: Works best in the 8H Timeframe for CFD's. Good for getting a sense of what overfitting actually means and how easy one can fool themself, find the highest Profitfactor setting in the first Sector (Start - 2012) and then see if the second Sector (2012 - Now) produces Alpha over the Random Buy mode.
--- I have some questions about the System ---
Dear reader, please ask the question in the comment Section and i will do my best to assist you.
(FireflyTA) Algo Score MTFAlgo Score MTF
The Algo Score MTF is a meta-analytic oscillator telling you about the technical market strength . It is analyzing a variety of different indicators and metrics to come up with a score that gives you an impression on whether the medium timeframes have fuel to go higher or if it's running out and the risk increases to see corrective price action.
----------------------
About Technical Market Strength
Algo measures the technical strength with a score between -10 and 10 . A bullish or bearish technical market strength shows a high correlation with bullish or bearish PA soon after the score reaches the significant levels deviating from 0. However, optimal treshold values (meaning the score after which the strength can be considered bullish or bearish) vary depending on the market looked at. For BTCUSD, the default values used can be seen as reference. If you want to apply Algo to other markets, you will have to calibrate the tresholds yourself.
It is important to know that market strength is the fuel to drive price higher or lower, but it is not the trigger. The trend is of superior importance. So when price is in a strong uptrend (in this case on the MTF), and the score reaches a value of -4 or lower (which can be considered bearish), it can still take a while for the trend to shift because of the strong momentum. The score in this case can be used as an indicator to show you times when it is wise to take profits / de-risk or take extra care in your risk management in general.
----------------------
Indicators used
All the indicators mentioned are calculated separately and weighted by the significance value you can customize in the indicator UI. It is also possible to (1) deactivate certain indicators and (2) force them as required, so that a signal in the oscillator only occurs when the indicator(s) that is/are required support the thesis (bullish vs. bearish).
Daily VWAP
MTF Trend
Traditional Bollinger Bands
RSI
MTF RSI Divergence
Stoch RSI
Ichimoku Cloud
Fib Retracement Levels
MACD
TTM Squeeze
Moneyflow
Custom Levels you can define (3 categories: Major, medium, minor)
For some indicators, there are specific settings to customize how they contribute to the overall score (i.e. MACD cross vs. shift vs. trending phase). It is also important to know that Algo fetches the indicator data from multiple timeframes, thereby adding reliability to the overall results.
----------------------
Algo Custom Logic
Algo is using my custom logic on when a certain indicator can be interpreted as bullish or bearish in the MTF horizon. If you want to find out about the reliability of certain indicators, I recommend disabling all the indicators except for the one you want to examine, and then see how the score reacts to price action.
----------------------
Timeframes
Due to script limitations, this version can only analyze the medium timeframes . It is best used with charts 2H+, it works on some 90m as well but ceases to work at 1H and below . It is also not compatible with higher timeframes . Upon using the same settings on the same ticker with different timeframes, you will see that the score shows a minor variance. This is because data is consolidated to match the timeframe, so it ultimately leads to minor differences. Find out for yourself what timeframe is the best to use with which market and which settings.
----------------------
How to Use
I'm going to add tooltips for the settings in the indicator UI with upcoming updates, so it becomes more clear on how to set Algo up properly. To prevent a loss of your customized settings, write them down somewhere in case a script update reverts the settings back to default.

(FireflyTA) Market Flow COG (Oscillator)Market Flow COG (Oscillator)
Market Flow COG in the "Oscillator" version gives you an aggregated score (bullishness vs. bearishness) based on market flow analysis. I'm using my own definition of market flow since I'm actively doing scientific research on that topic and developing concepts and tools around it.
This indicator is best used together with Market Flow COG (Overlay) , which is also public.
----------------------
About Market Flow
The market flow is a concept describing the directional force driving price movement that a market experiences based on term-specific (short-, mid- and long-term) momentum as well as dynamic range support and resistance.
In a strong uptrend for example, market flow is upwards, so dynamic range S&R (i.e. Bollinger Bands) is flowing upwards, too. This is increasing the probability to see continuation after dips. In a shifting trend, it is possible to observe market flow still continuing upwards, because the the flow is only changing slowly. Momentum takes a while to run out and exert pressure into the other direction. This phenomenon can be observed on all timeframes in high-volume markets, even more so on the higher timeframes.
Given the complex nature of market flow , there is still a lack of tools available to properly examine it and to derive appropriate trading decisions.
----------------------
About Market Flow COG
This indicator calculates a score that indicates where price is in relation all the different COGs (described below). This information is multiplied by a weight depending on the various trends price is in, i.e. a HTF uptrend makes it more likely to see price deviating from the mean to the upside, so the score is not as bearish when price is doing so.
This score is an assessment of how bullish or bearish the market is depending on mean reversion probabilities. If you use this indicator together with the Overlay version of this script, you can visualize where appropriate mean reversion targets are in case score hits very high or low levels. This way, it is possible to supplement your own research and improve your strike rate with your setups. But keep in mind that this indicator is not supposed to be used to derive trading decisions without doing proper interpretation work on the price action itself. It is supposed to help you find evidence supporting your own ideas.
----------------------
About "Center of Gravity"
Included as a module in the "Overlay" version of this script - but also being used in the calculations of this script.
The COG is an entity that is pulling price back to it frequently (this is why it is called Center of Gravity) as the law of mean reversion dictates. Mean reversion can be loosely broken up into mean reversion on multiple timeframes, and the COGs are included for ULT (ultra low, 15-60m), L (low, 1h-4h), M (medium, 6h-12H) and H (higher, 1D+) timeframes. As this entity is a new development in TA there is still a lack of scientific evidence that it is reliable. However, if you look at the charts, you will notice that price action will respect this entity and circle around it on the appropriate timeframes most of the time.
The COG is similar to a Bollinger Band, it is using volatility as its main component. However, COGs are aggregated entities looking at more timeframes at the same time, so besides the Time X Volatility perspective that is provided by Bollinger Bands, this entity adds a third dimension by looking at multiple timeframes. The COG is the mean of all the BBs that are included in the calculation, which can be a large number. This makes a COG a meta-analytic entity that is more sensitive to market price action.
The COG helps you in identifying how far and for how long price has been overextended to one side beyond the means. In theory, the probabilities increase dramatically to see a mean reversion to the COG. Watching price interacting with the COG should make clear that the correlations are significant, however there might be differences based on the markets used. The COGs have primarily been tested with the BTCUSD market and for crypto in general.
A way to trade based on COGs is to look for weakness (if price is above the COG) or strength (if price is below the COG) in price action while it is approaching S&R. If signs of accumulation or distribution arise, and the distance to the COG is meaningful (as well as being maintained for a few candles), it can provide additional backing for your long/short scalping and swing trading ideas. I'd recommend to always use the COG in combination with your knowledge on price action.
By using all COGs at the same time for ULTF, LTF, MTF and HTF you can get a feeling for where price is in the context overall market flow .
----------------------
Candle Colorization
This script has an optional feature that lets you colorize the candles depending on certain score tresholds you can change manually in the indicator UI. Don't take these as signals, but rather as a possibility to become aware of when price is deviating far from the means.

All of the above indicators can be plotted as independent plots of the Chart Symbol or of a different symbol by enabling 𝐃𝐢𝐬𝐩𝐥𝐚𝐲 𝐈𝐧𝐝𝐢𝐜𝐚𝐭𝐨𝐫 𝐏𝐥𝐨𝐭 (𝐝𝐢𝐬𝐚𝐛𝐥𝐞𝐬 𝐓𝐫𝐚𝐜𝐤𝐞𝐫/𝐒𝐜𝐨𝐫𝐞𝐜𝐚𝐫𝐝). Some Oscillators have the option of Pʟᴏᴛ Sᴛʏʟᴇ under their relevant sections, and can be plotted as line, area or a histogram.
Oscillators 1-8 (except 4) require source price, lookback length and smoothing (where available) for the indicator plot. The colour of the tracker blocks is based on the Upper/Lower bands (where available), specified by the user in the respective sections. For example, if the RSI indicator is chosen to be plotted with Upper band at 60 and Lower band at 40, the tracker blocks and the Indicator plot paint the values between 40 and 60 in neutral colour which can be changed from the settings.
Multi Window BTC-USDT 1hr example chart below with various indicators from ™TradeChartist Tracker.
Note: The tracker colour is exactly colour of the Indicator Plot. The Visual Scorecard , however uses the mid values and doesn't take into account the bands specified by the user. For example, RSI score is green on the Visual Scorecard as long as RSI is above 50 and doesn't get affected by the user specified upper/lower band and this applies to all Oscillators. This is shown in the 1hr BTC-USDT chart below.
Moving Averages (MA) and MACD
------------------------------------------------------
Tracker plots and tracks one of 15 Moving Averages that can be chosen from the MA ᴛʏᴘᴇ and by specifying the MA Lᴇɴɢᴛʜ .
MACD uses EMA as default for calculating the MACD plots and Tracker data using Fᴀsᴛ Lᴇɴɢᴛʜ , Sʟᴏᴡ Lᴇɴɢᴛʜ and Sᴍᴏᴏᴛʜɪɴɢ . To experiment or use a different Moving Average to calculate MACD, disable 𝐔𝐬𝐞 𝐄𝐌𝐀 (Uɴᴄʜᴇᴄᴋ ᴛᴏ ᴜsᴇ MA ғʀᴏᴍ ᴀʙᴏᴠᴇ) and select the required Moving Average from MA ᴛʏᴘᴇ drop down of the 𝟰. 𝗠𝗼𝘃𝗶𝗻𝗴 𝗔𝘃𝗲𝗿𝗮𝗴𝗲 section.
Bollinger Bands %B + Optional plots of Bollinger Bands and Breakout Signals
---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Bollinger Bands %B is a companion oscillator for Bollinger Bands and helps depict where the price is, in relation to the Bollinger Bands. To plot the actual Bollinger Bands, enable Dɪsᴘʟᴀʏ Bᴏʟʟɪɴɢᴇʀ Bᴀɴᴅs and to plot the Bollinger Bands Breakout Signals, enable Sʜᴏᴡ BB Bʀᴇᴀᴋᴏᴜᴛ Sɪɢɴᴀʟs , with 𝐃𝐢𝐬𝐩𝐥𝐚𝐲 𝐈𝐧𝐝𝐢𝐜𝐚𝐭𝐨𝐫 𝐏𝐥𝐨𝐭 (𝐝𝐢𝐬𝐚𝐛𝐥𝐞𝐬 𝐓𝐫𝐚𝐜𝐤𝐞𝐫/𝐒𝐜𝐨𝐫𝐞𝐜𝐚𝐫𝐝) enabled.
Ichimoku Cloud Oscillator + Optional plots of Ichimoku Cloud and Breakout Signals
------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Ichimoku Cloud Oscillator helps visualize the current price in relation to the breakout support/resistance of the Ichimoku Cloud using strict Ichimoku Cloud criteria (including Chikou Span agreeing with the breakout etc.). To plot the actual Ichimoku Cloud, enable Dɪsᴘʟᴀʏ Iᴄʜɪᴍᴏᴋᴜ Cʟᴏᴜᴅ and to plot the Kumo Breakout Signals, enable Sʜᴏᴡ Kᴜᴍᴏ Bʀᴇᴀᴋᴏᴜᴛ Sɪɢɴᴀʟs , with 𝐃𝐢𝐬𝐩𝐥𝐚𝐲 𝐈𝐧𝐝𝐢𝐜𝐚𝐭𝐨𝐫 𝐏𝐥𝐨𝐭 (𝐝𝐢𝐬𝐚𝐛𝐥𝐞𝐬 𝐓𝐫𝐚𝐜𝐤𝐞𝐫/𝐒𝐜𝐨𝐫𝐞𝐜𝐚𝐫𝐝) enabled.
Cloud Settings form the fundamental factor for this indicator to detect the breakouts. The settings for the Ichimoku Cloud is Automatic (detects right settings for the symbol type) by default, but this can be changed to Classic or 24/7 Crypto , based on the user preference from the settings under 𝐂𝐥𝐨𝐮𝐝 𝐓𝐲𝐩𝐞, which also includes a manual input option. Ichimoku traders can experiment different settings combinations under manual settings to suit their trading frequency and timeframe traded.
Donchian Channels + Optional plots of Donchian Channels and Breakout Signals
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Donchian Channels comprises of three plots - a upper band, a lower band and a mean line (or mid line of the channel). The upper band is based on highest high of N periods specified by the user and the lower band is based on the lowest low of N periods specified by the user. These channels help spot price breaching high or low of last N periods clearly, thereby aiding the trader to understand the price action of any symbol better on any given timeframe.
Donchian Channels Oscillator helps visualize the current price in relation to the Mean line of the Donchian Channels of user specified lookback period (specified in the Dᴏɴᴄʜɪᴀɴ Cʜᴀɴɴᴇʟ Lᴇɴɢᴛʜ input box). The sensitivity of the oscillator can be adjusted using smoothing factor in the Sᴍᴏᴏᴛʜɪɴɢ input box. To plot the actual Donchian Channels, enable Dɪsᴘʟᴀʏ Dᴏɴᴄʜɪᴀɴ Cʜᴀɴɴᴇʟs and to plot the Donchian Channels Breakout Signals, enable Sʜᴏᴡ DC Bʀᴇᴀᴋᴏᴜᴛ Sɪɢɴᴀʟs , with 𝐃𝐢𝐬𝐩𝐥𝐚𝐲 𝐈𝐧𝐝𝐢𝐜𝐚𝐭𝐨𝐫 𝐏𝐥𝐨𝐭 (𝐝𝐢𝐬𝐚𝐛𝐥𝐞𝐬 𝐓𝐫𝐚𝐜𝐤𝐞𝐫/𝐒𝐜𝐨𝐫𝐞𝐜𝐚𝐫𝐝) enabled.
Note: Using smoothing factor more than 1 doesn't reflect the actual Donchian Channels Mean line and also impacts the Tracker block colours.
Net Volume and Heikin Ashi Trend
-------------------------------------------------------
Net Volume and Heikin Ashi Trend can be tracked and plotted for up to 10 symbols in addition to the chart symbol, but both Net Volume and Heikin Ashi Trend are not included in the Visual Scorecard. Since the colour of the Net Volume depends on candle being bullish or bearish, it can help the user visualize if the current candle close of the symbol tracked is above or below the symbols's candle open.
Note: Bar Replay doesn't update the bar by bar indicator plot for historic bars for symbols other than the chart symbol. However, the Indicator Plot is perfectly usable for the realtime bar as data updates for both the Trackers and the Scorecard in realtime.

𝗠𝘂𝗹𝘁𝗶 𝗦𝘆𝗺𝗯𝗼𝗹 𝗧𝗿𝗮𝗰𝗸𝗲𝗿𝘀/𝗟𝗮𝗯𝗲𝗹𝘀
=============================
Multi Symbol Tracker blocks continuously track the real-time indicator data of up to 10 symbols (in addition to the chart symbol) based on the number of Symbol Trackers preferred in the 𝐍𝐮𝐦𝐛𝐞𝐫 𝐨𝐟 𝐒𝐲𝐦𝐛𝐨𝐥 𝐓𝐫𝐚𝐜𝐤𝐞𝐫𝐬 (𝟎-𝟏𝟎) input box under the 𝗧𝗿𝗮𝗰𝗸𝗲𝗿 𝗣𝗹𝗼𝘁𝘀 section, and plots Bull, Bear and Neutral colour coded blocks based on both the indicator selected and settings preferred by the user under the relevant indicator section.
Multi Symbol Tracker Labels also continuously track the real-time indicator data in addition to the last close price (if 𝐒𝐡𝐨𝐰 𝐏𝐫𝐢𝐜𝐞 is enabled under 𝗧𝗿𝗮𝗰𝗸𝗲𝗿 𝗣𝗹𝗼𝘁𝘀 section), which helps user see the real-time changes in the indicator values and price changes of the symbols tracked.
The Tracker Label colours are exactly the same as the Tracker Block colours and are filtered based on the user preferred bands on the Oscillator values. This is slightly different to the Visual Scorecard Colour coding as the range between the user preferred bands is colour coded in a neutral colour, whereas the Scorecard uses only Bull and Bear Colours as explained in the 𝗩𝗶𝘀𝘂𝗮𝗹 𝗦𝗰𝗼𝗿𝗲𝗰𝗮𝗿𝗱 heading above. For example, if the user prefers RSI upper band of 60 and lower band of 40, the range between the values of 40 and 60 will be colour coded in neutral colour which can be changed from the 𝗨𝘀𝗲𝗳𝘂𝗹 𝗘𝘅𝘁𝗿𝗮𝘀 section of the indicator settings.
Note 1: Default settings are based on the Oscillator mid values and hence the Tracker Blocks match with the Visual Scorecard colour codes. Using Upper and Lower bands for oscillators help spot the oversold and overbought zones and also helps spot breakout threshold based on Indicator values specified by the user. Example chart with visual depiction below using RSI.
Note 2: Bar Replay doesn't update the bar by bar scores/tracker data for historic bars for symbols other than the chart symbol. However, the Tracker blocks/labels are perfectly usable for the realtime bar as data updates for both the Trackers and the Scorecard in realtime.

Frequently Asked Questions
========================
Q: When I load the ™TradeChartist Tracker, why are the values in the labels blurred sometimes?
A: This happens occasionally as shown in the chart below, when the script is loaded for the first time or when a different setting is used.
To resolve this, just hide and unhide the script using the 👁 next to the Indicator title. If it is not visible, just hover the mouse/crosshair over the Indicator Title and it will be visible.
Q: Why does the indicator plot, tracker blocks and labels of Symbols being tracked, not update when I use Bar Replay?
A: As explained in the relevant sections above, historic data for bars and indicators other than chart symbol doesn't update on bar replay. But the chart symbol data does update for every bar on bar replay. This doesn't affect the real-time values and block colours for the symbols tracked.
Q: Can I track real-time values of a currently trading symbol when I'm on a symbol chart that is inactive? For example, can I see labels with real-time BTC values on a Sunday when I'm on a SPX chart when its not in session?
A: Simple answer is no. This is because, the plots are based on bar times of the chart and the symbols are tracked based on the bar time. So if the SPX session ended on Friday, the last known value of the BTC labels will be from Friday and hence it is always recommended to track symbols from a symbol chart that is in session.
Q: Does ™TradeChartist Tracker repaint?
A: This indicator doesn't repaint but it is not recommended to trade a different symbol from the chart based on the real-time data alone without checking if the current symbol chart is in session as inactive price chart will not have updated data on symbols tracked. Also, bar replay doesn't work on data pulled from external symbol data than the chart symbol, but signals confirmed at candle close and confirmed by Tracker blocks with appropriate colour code will be in agreement with the respective indicator and can be double checked for building trust and confidence on the indicator.
Q: Can ™TradeChartist Tracker be connected to other indicators as external source?
A: Yes. ™TradeChartist Tracker can be connected to another script and there are several use cases in doing so. A couple of examples are shown below.
1. ™TradeChartist Tracker 's Bollinger Bands %B 𝗜𝗻𝗱𝗶𝗰𝗮𝘁𝗼𝗿 𝗣𝗹𝗼𝘁 connected to ™TradeChartist Plotter to plot Divergences on the 4hr XAU-USD main price chart.
2. ™TradeChartist Tracker 's 𝐁𝐫𝐞𝐚𝐤𝐨𝐮𝐭 𝐓𝐫𝐞𝐧𝐝 𝐈𝐝𝐞𝐧𝐭𝐢𝐟𝐢𝐞𝐫 connected to ™TradeChartist Plug and Trade as Oscillatory Signal with 0/0 to generate trade signals with Targets and performance information on trades.

Fortuna 2.0This is a custom Algorithm that is highly adjustable for how aggressive you want the signals to be.
This script incorporates moving averages, volume , money flow , and trend reversal prediction.
I have included a very smooth trend line that is color coated for the trend.
Each toggle allows you to add more restrictions to the buy and sell signals to be more conservative.
The confirmation signals were designed to be used by themselves, but can also be used with the other toggles.
You can change RSI to be more aggressive or less aggressive
I suggest starting with commodity channel included.
Second Step would be to include Vwap or Keltners, or both.
Uptrend/downtrend predictor can be used by itself as well.
This script should be used in conjunction with your own TA to make any plays.
2.0 Includes The following Major Changes
The Ability to change it so you can only have 1 buy per 1 sell, allowing this to potentially be autotraded.
Also a very aggressive sell mode is an option.
Thank you,

Special Shout out to Skwasha for helping me with the PineScript, This has been many long nights and revisions to get to this point.
Skynett 1.0This is a custom algorithm that looks at 50 different settings and over 15 indicators combining them to create a strong reversal signal.
This is highly customizable.
The following settings have the most impact on signals issued.
Keltner on and off
T3 on and off
PSO level
The buy signals are issued when the probability of a strong reversal happens on a down trend.
The sell signals are given when the probability of a strong reversal on a uptrend happens.
This should be used to help to give you an idea of when you can enter a trade on a reversal and should not be used as a standalone indicator.
Thank you,
The Tomikazi
TC Chart Score 1.3 BETAIn version 1.3 I am switching it back to a study.
We have changed the formula for calculating the score with 9 buy conditions, each one allowing 1 point.
The idea is to predict a strong bullish reversal
To use this combine it with bullish candles ideally to confirm a buy signal.
This combines momentum, volume, money flow, and other indicators to show the strength of reversal probability.
Strongest possible score is 9.
I added a slow and fast moving SMA as well to smooth the score.
TC Chart Score StrategyThis is My Call Confidence Strategy
The Strategy is designed to help confirm a bullish reversal after a downtrend.
This uses custom weighted algorithm
The Algorithm combines directional movement, volume over average, and moving averages to formulate a score.
The score is then used in conjunction with a smoothed score of the same criteria to initiate a buy signal on a cross over.
The settings are designed to help you customize how you weight directional movement, and the moving averages to further finetune the algorithm to your timelines.
The default settings are designed to be used on a 1 hour time frame.
You can change the settings for other time frames to further increase effectiveness.
This script will be updated as needed if a better algorithm is designed.
Z-Score 'Bollinger Bands'The following script is an application of the Z-Score (previous script).
Z-Scores can be used in place of standard deviation (sigma) in 'Bollinger Bands'.
The average of the sample (x-bar) over 21 days (N)
21 average trading days per month, fixed value
The average of the population (mu) over 63 days (n)
63 days per quarter, default is set to 63
Z-Score is calculated by formula in previous script, and the absolute value is taken of "Z".
Z-High = absolute value of Z + (x-bar).
Z-Low = absolute value of Z - (x-bar).
Will update with Z from mu and Z from avg (working on UX and visualization details).
Z-Score The z-score is a way of counting the number of standard deviations between a given data value and the mean of the data set.
Z-score = (x̄ - μ) / (σ / √ n)
x̄ = sample mean (using the array.avg function = array(a,close ), where i = 1 to 21)
μ = population mean ( = avg(close, n))
σ = standard deviation of the population ( = stdev(close,n))
n = number of 'close' or trading day closes
n = input
... Note: The previous indicator is part of a larger series of indicators
Z-SCORE Currency Strength Indicator by Lukas"you must have" indicator if you trade Forex major pairs.
So far this is the most reliable script i have for trade forex pairs.
This indicator will give us information of momentum, strength and cycle.
What i like about Z-SCORE, it's calculate price and volume.
Setting :
1. Set Color 0 and Color 2 into thick line, it will give you strength information.
The strength information is base on cumulative Currency price Vs. 7 others currency,
When Source Price above EMA and Above LWMA "Color 0" active, above EMA "Color 2" active, below EMA "Color 1" active
so it's important to set the thickness.
2. You can set EMA length as thickness filter
3. You can set Signal line between EMA and LWMA
EMA = smoother
LWMA = reactive
Strong currency signal when Color 0 active and they are on upward movement, crossing -80 or above 0
Weak Color 1 active and they are on downward movement, crossing 80 or below 0
Trade Strong Vs. Weak
Any feedback are welcome.
Hope it useful!
I also have unpublished OBV and smooth RSI indicator,
OBV can give you earlier bull/bear sign, let me know if you are interested~
Thank you.
Z-HistogramIt is possible to approximate the underlying distribution of a random variable by using what is called an "Histogram". In order to construct an histogram one must first split the data into several intervals (also called bins) often of the same size and count the number of values falling within each intervals, the histogram plot is then constructed with the X axis representing the measured variable and the Y axis representing the frequency.
The proposed script aim to estimate the underlying distribution of a rolling z-score by constructing its histogram, here the histogram consist of 13 bins of width 0.5 rolling standard deviations. The length setting define the rolling z-score period, the window setting define the number of past data to be counted, finally using the "Total" option (true by default) will count all the rolling z-scores values since the first bar, in order to use the window setting make sure to uncheck the "Total" option.
DISPLAY
In order to see the entirety of the histogram make sure to double click on the indicator window and to have all the lower panels (text notes, pine editor...etc) hidden, finally make sure to zoom-in in order to see the frequency numbers displayed.
Z-Histogram on BTCUSD 15 min TF, the blue bins represent intervals situated over 0 while red bins represent intervals situated under 0. Here σ represent the X-axis in standard deviations, the histogram start with a bin situated at σ = -3 which count the number of times the rolling z-score was within -3 and -2.5, the histogram end with the bin situated at σ = 3 which count the number of time the rolling z-score was within 3 and 3.5.
It is also possible to look at the shape of the histogram without having the indicator window at full size.
INTERPREATION
An histogram can give really interesting information such as overall trend direction and strength. The direction can be measured by looking at the skewness of the histogram, with a negative skewness (the peak of the histogram situated at the right from the center) representing down-trending variations and positive skewness (the peak of the histogram situated at the left from the center) representing up-trending variations, while a symmetrical histogram could represent a ranging market. The farther away the peak of the histogram is situated from the center, the stronger the trend.
Another interesting characteristic is the tailedness of the histogram, which can give information about the cleanliness of the trend, for example a positive skew and high tailedness would represent a clean up-trend, as it could suggest less variations contrary to the main trend.
An histogram applied to the rolling z-score can give various useful information. As a recall the rolling z-score of the price measure the distance between the closing price and its moving average in term of rolling standard deviations, for example if the rolling z-score is equal to 2 it means that the closing price is currently 2 rolling standard deviations over its moving average.
Lets for example analyze the histogram using INTC 15 min tf with a window of 456 bars and rolling z-score of length = 100 in order to review longer term variations.
We can see from the histogram that the uptrend visible on the chart is represented by the bins situated over 0 having an overall higher frequency than the bins under 0, we can see that the closing price tended to stay between 1 and 1.5 rolling standard deviations over its period 100 moving average. Here bins under 0 accounts for retracements in the trend.
IN SUMMARY
An histogram can give various information regarding the price evolution of a security, the proposed script aim to plot the histogram of a rolling z-score. Now this script might not be too useful but it was fun to make, also it does not mean that an histogram is not an useful tool in the context of trading, the only thing required is a god implementation of it (like volume profiles for example)
In this post we have also reviewed some important statistical concepts such as distributions, z-score, skewness and tailedness, each being extremely important in the quantitative trading field.

Z Score Enhanced Time Segmented Volume (Multi MA)**THIS VERSION HAS BEEN STANDARDIZED WITH A Z SCORE CALCULATION AND ALLOWS THE USER TO SELECT WHICH MOVING AVERAGE THEY WOULD LIKE TO UTILIZE FOR THE SIGNAL LINE**
Chart shows the Non-Standardized Enhanced Time Segmented Volume (Multi MA) with default settings on top and the Standardized version with default settings on the bottom.
Time Segmented Volume was developed by Worden Brothers, Inc to be a leading indicator by comparing various time segments of both price and volume . Essentialy it is designed to measure the amount of money flowing in and out of an instrument.
Time Segmented Volume was originally ported to TradingView by user @liw0 and later corrected by user @vitelot. I never quite understood how to read Time Segmented Volume until I ran across a version by user @storma where they indicated when price would be long or short, but that code also utilized the incorrect calculation from user @liw0.
In an effort to make Time Segmented Volume more accessible and easier to read, I have re-coded it here. The calculations are based on the code from @vitelot and I have added direction indicators below the chart.
If the histogram (TSV) is greater than zero and greater than the moving average, price should be moving long and there will be a green box below the chart.
If TSV falls below the moving average while still being greater than zero, the trend may be exhausting and has been coded to read Price Action Long - FAILURE with a black x below the chart.
If the histogram (TSV) is less than zero and less than the moving average, price should be moving short and there will be a red box below the chart.
If TSV rises above the moving average while still being less than zero, the trend may be exhausting and has been coded to read Price Action Short - FAILURE with a black x below the chart.
At times, the moving average may be above zero while TSV is below zero or vice versa. In these situations the chart will indicate long or short based on whether or not TSV is greater or less than zero. It is possible a new trend may be forming as the moving average obviously lags, but also possible price is consolidating with little volume and causing TSV to oscillate close to zero.
**Z Score // Standardized Option **
Thist Standardized code implements all of the above but also allows the user to select a threshold level that should not need to be adjusted for each instrument (since the output is standardized).
If the TSV value meets the long and short signal requirements above and TSV is greater than the threshold values a green or red box will print ABOVE the oscillator. The histogram will also change color based on which threshold TSV has met.
This calculation allows us to compare current volatility to the mean (moving average) of the population (Z-Length). The closer the TSV Z-Score is to the mean, the closer it will be to the Zero Line and therefore price is likely consolidating and choppy. The farther TSV Z-Score is from the mean, the more likely price is trending.
The MA Mode determines the Moving Average used to calculate TSV itself. The Z-Score is ALWAYS calculated with a simple moving average (as that is the standard calculation for Z-Score).
The Threshold Levels are the levels at which TSV Z-Score will change from gray to yellow, orange, green ( bullish ), or red ( bearish ).
Statistically speaking, confidence levels in relation to Z-Score are noted below. The built in Threshold Levels are the positive and negative values for 90%, 95%, and 99%. This would indicate when volatility is greater than these values they are out of the ordinary from the standard range. You may wish to adjust these levels for TSV Z-Score to be more responsive to your trading needs
80% :: 1.28
85% :: 1.44
90% :: 1.64
95% :: 1.96
99% :: 2.58
The Z Length is the period for which the Z Score is calculated

5 Minute TraderBy request, this is an amalgamation of my most popular indicator features but tailored for lower timeframes.
Signals are generated by simple EMA crosses (with adjustable values) in the direction of the current trend and then validated against a scoring system that's comprised of 20 other indicators. When the majority of them agree then the trade can be taken. The tolerance score that permits a trade can be adjusted within the indicator preference panel and the values can be printed above/below the candle to help you tune your entry points.
To further reassure you, the smoothed candle direction from the 4 hour chart is printed in the background to validate the trend direction and a floating trade helper panel translates the scores in to practical terms (buy, sell etc)
Alerts are built in.
Note: This is a premium script. Please DM me for access.
WhipLashThis is a study to determine if small candle bodies (little difference between open and close), regardless of overall candle length (high/low), can be used to filter choppy markets.
The indicator will calculate the selected average "MA Mode" of (close-open). To standardize this result and ensure any filters/thresholds do not need to be recalculated for each instrument the result will be used to calculate the Z Score.
The idea is that when candle bodies are small there is very little actual price movement, and therefore price is choppy. When considering the Z Score of that result, any outliers ie larger candle bodies, could show a potential trend forming. This indicator is similar to QStick but allows more customization by the user.
MA Mode determines which MA is used to smooth the results of (close-open)
Price Smoothing is the number of running periods the MA Mode is calculated for.
The three Thresholds are preset to the 90%, 95%, and 99% levels for Z Score. If these thresholds are altered you may wish to also alter the horizontal lines programmed for each level on the positive and negative sides.
The Z Length is the period for which the Z Score is calculated
