MACD Divergence Optimizer# MACD Divergence Optimizer - User Guide
## Overview
The **MACD Divergence Optimizer** is a professional-grade technical analysis indicator for TradingView that automatically detects hidden divergences on MACD with volume weighting. It identifies potential reversal points before price action confirms the move, giving traders an early edge.
---
## What is Divergence?
A **divergence** occurs when price and an oscillator (like MACD) move in opposite directions:
- **Bullish Divergence**: Price makes a lower low, but MACD makes a higher low → Potential uptrend reversal
- **Bearish Divergence**: Price makes a higher high, but MACD makes a lower high → Potential downtrend reversal
Divergences are among the most reliable reversal signals in technical analysis.
---
## Indicator Features
### Volume-Weighted MACD
- Standard MACD is calculated on closing price
- This indicator uses **volume-weighted closing prices** for greater accuracy
- Formula: MACD = (Volume-Weighted EMA₁₂ - Volume-Weighted EMA₂₆)
- Volume weighting gives more importance to high-conviction price moves
### Automatic Swing Detection
- Detects local highs and lows (5-bar lookback)
- Tracks the last 5 swings for divergence analysis
- Only meaningful swings are tracked (filtered for noise)
### Smart Signal Generation
- Green triangle (▲) = Bullish Divergence (BUY signal)
- Red triangle (▼) = Bearish Divergence (SELL signal)
- Triangles appear directly on the MACD line for precise entry timing
### Built-in Alerts
- Real-time notifications for divergence signals
- Alerts can trigger mobile push notifications or sound
- Never miss a trading opportunity
---

---
## Trading Strategy
### Bullish Divergence (Entry Setup)
1. **Identify Signal**: Green triangle appears on MACD
2. **Confirm Price**: Look for price rejection of the low (bounce)
3. **Volume Check**: Buy on increase in volume at the bounce
4. **Entry**: Above the swing low level
5. **Stop Loss**: Below the most recent swing low
6. **Target**: Next swing high or resistance level
### Bearish Divergence (Entry Setup)
1. **Identify Signal**: Red triangle appears on MACD
2. **Confirm Price**: Look for price rejection of the high
3. **Volume Check**: Sell on increase in volume at rejection
4. **Entry**: Below the swing high level
5. **Stop Loss**: Above the most recent swing high
6. **Target**: Next swing low or support level
### Risk Management
- **Position Size**: Risk only 1-2% per trade
- **Stop Loss**: Place beyond recent swings
- **Take Profit**: Scale out at 1:1, 1:2, 1:3 risk-reward ratios
- **Filter**: Use on higher timeframes (4H, Daily) for reliability

## Timeframe Recommendations
| Timeframe | Best For | Signal Quality |
|-----------|----------|---|
| **1H** | Scalping, day trading | Moderate (some noise) |
| **4H** | Swing trading | Excellent |
| **Daily** | Position trading | Excellent |
| **Weekly** | Long-term trends | Excellent |
---
## Tips & Best Practices
### ✅ DO:
- **Use on trends**: Divergences work best when there's a clear trend
- **Combine signals**: Look for confirmation from price action, volume, or moving averages
- **Trade the bounce**: Wait for price to react to the swing, then enter
- **Adjust parameters**: Test different MACD lengths for your trading style
- **Use alerts**: Set up mobile alerts so you don't miss signals
### ❌ DON'T:
- **Trade every signal**: Some signals are stronger than others
- **Trade flat/choppy markets**: Divergences fail in ranging markets
- **Ignore support/resistance**: Trade divergences near key levels for best results
- **Over-leverage**: Divergences are probabilistic, not guaranteed
- **Disable volume analysis**: Always check volume when divergence fires
---
## Advanced Features
### Volume Weighting
The indicator uses **volume-weighted MACD** instead of standard MACD. This means:
- High-volume reversals get more emphasis
- Low-volume moves are smoothed out
- More accurate momentum readings
- Better at identifying true trend changes
### Array Tracking
The indicator tracks the last 5 swings in arrays:
- `swingLows ` = last 5 price lows
- `swingHighs ` = last 5 price highs
- `swingMacds ` = corresponding MACD values
This allows detection of **hidden divergences** not visible in traditional analysis.
---
## Common Questions
**Q: Why didn't the indicator trigger a signal when I see a divergence?**
A: The indicator may require:
- MACD histogram to cross the zero line (confirms momentum shift)
- Minimum strength threshold to be met (adjust Min Divergence Strength)
- At least 5 swings to be recorded in the lookback window
**Q: Can I use this on all timeframes?**
A: Yes, but divergences are more reliable on higher timeframes (4H+). Lower timeframes produce more signals but with more noise.
**Q: Should I trade every green/red triangle?**
A: No. Use them as a heads-up for potential reversals. Always confirm with:
- Price action (rejection of the swing)
- Volume (increasing volume at reversal)
- Key support/resistance levels
**Q: How do I set alerts?**
A:
1. Right-click the indicator → Edit Alerts
2. Check "Bullish Divergence" and/or "Bearish Divergence"
3. Choose notification type (browser, mobile, email)
4. Set frequency to "Once per bar close"
**Q: What's the difference between regular and hidden divergence?**
A: This indicator detects **hidden divergences** (also called continuation divergences):
- **Regular**: Price makes new extreme, but oscillator doesn't
- **Hidden**: Price makes new extreme, oscillator makes new extreme in different direction
- Hidden divergences are often more reliable for continuation plays

ATR Risk Display - Multi FuturesWhat This Does
I got tired of manually calculating my ATR stops and risk for different futures contracts, especially when switching between ES, NQ, and their micro versions. This indicator automatically detects what futures symbol you're trading and shows you the exact tick count and dollar risk for your stop loss.
The Problem It Solves
If you trade futures with ATR-based stops, you know the hassle:
Different contracts have different tick values
You need to calculate position risk in dollars
Switching between symbols means redoing all the math
Renko charts make it even more confusing since ATR needs to come from regular candles
This handles all of that automatically.
Key Features
Auto-detects futures symbols - ES, NQ, YM, RTY, GC, CL, and all the micros (MES, MNQ, etc.)
Shows everything you need in one line: ATR(timeframe) × multiplier = X ticks ($XXX)
Works on Renko charts - pulls ATR from regular timeframe charts (super important if you use Renko)
Adjustable position sizing - set your contract count and see total risk instantly
Clean, minimal display - just the info you need, no clutter
How to Use
Add it to any futures chart
Set your preferred ATR timeframe (I use 5-minute)
Set your ATR multiplier (I use 1.5x for my stops)
Set your contract size
That's it - the indicator handles the rest
The display will show something like: "ES ATR(5) × 1.5 = 12 ticks ($150)"
Settings Explained
ATR Timeframe: What timeframe to calculate ATR from (always uses regular candles, even on Renko)
ATR Multiplier: How many ATRs for your stop (1.5 is common, 2.0 for wider stops)
Number of Contracts: Your position size for risk calculation
Auto-Detect Symbol: Leave on unless you want to manually override
Supported Futures
Full size: ES, NQ, YM, RTY, GC, CL, ZB, ZN, 6E, 6J
Micros: MES, MNQ, MYM, M2K, MGC, MCL
Notes
Made this primarily for my own ES trading but figured others might find it useful
The tick values are based on standard CME specs
If you trade other futures, you can modify the code to add them
Works great alongside level indicators for risk management
Why This Exists
I use ATR trailing stops on all my trades and got tired of doing mental math every time I switched between charts or contracts. Especially useful if you trade both full-size and micro contracts - the risk difference is huge and easy to mess up.
Hope this helps your trading! Feel free to suggest improvements.

CandelaCharts - Trend Oscillator 📝 Overview
Trend Oscillator is a simple yet effective trend identification tool that uses the relationship between two exponential moving averages (EMAs) to determine market direction. It calculates the spread between a fast and slow EMA, applies a bias multiplier, and smooths the result to produce a clean oscillator that oscillates above and below a zero line. When the oscillator is above zero, the trend is considered bullish (upward); when below zero, it's bearish (downward). The indicator provides clear visual feedback through color-coded plots and optional price bar coloring, making it easy to identify trend direction at a glance.
📦 Features
This section highlights the core capabilities you'll rely on most.
Dual EMA system — Uses a fast EMA (default 9) and slow EMA (default 21) to capture trend momentum and direction.
Bias multiplier — Applies a small multiplier (default 1.001) to the EMA spread, providing a slight bias that helps filter noise and confirm trend strength.
Smoothed output — Applies an additional EMA smoothing (default 5 periods) to the raw spread, creating a cleaner, less choppy oscillator line.
Zero-line reference — Plots a horizontal zero line that serves as the critical threshold between bullish and bearish conditions.
Color-coded visualization — Automatically colors the oscillator line green/lime when bullish (above zero) and red when bearish (below zero).
Price bar coloring — Optional feature to color price bars based on the current trend direction, providing immediate visual context on the main chart.
Customizable parameters — Adjust EMA lengths, bias multiplier, smoothing period, and colors to match your trading style and timeframe.
⚙️ Settings
Use these controls to fine-tune the oscillator's sensitivity, appearance, and behavior.
Fast EMA Length — Period for the fast exponential moving average (default: 9). Lower values make the indicator more responsive to price changes.
Slow EMA Length — Period for the slow exponential moving average (default: 21). Higher values create a smoother baseline for trend identification.
Bias Multiplier — Multiplier applied to the EMA spread (default: 1.001). Small adjustments can help filter minor whipsaws and confirm trend strength.
Smoothing Length — Period for smoothing the raw spread calculation (default: 5). Higher values create a smoother oscillator line but may lag price action.
Colors — Set the bullish (default: lime) and bearish (default: red) colors for the oscillator line.
Color Price Bars — Toggle to enable/disable coloring of price bars based on the current trend direction.

📒 Usage
Follow these steps to effectively use Trend Oscillator for trend identification and trading decisions.
1) Select your timeframe — The indicator works across all timeframes, but higher timeframes (daily, weekly, monthly) typically provide more reliable trend signals with less noise. Lower timeframes (1m, 5m, 15m) may produce more frequent but potentially less reliable signals. Consider your trading style: swing traders benefit from daily/weekly charts, while day traders can use 15m/1h timeframes. Always align the indicator's sensitivity with your timeframe choice.
2) Adjust EMA lengths — The default 9/21 combination works well for most cases. For faster signals, try 5/13; for slower, more conservative signals, try 12/26 or 20/50. Match the lengths to your trading style and timeframe.
3) Interpret the zero line — When the oscillator is above zero (green/lime), the trend is bullish. When below zero (red), the trend is bearish. The further from zero, the stronger the trend.
4) Watch for crossovers — Trend changes occur when the oscillator crosses the zero line. A cross from below to above indicates a shift to bullish; from above to below indicates a shift to bearish.
5) Identify divergences — Divergences can signal potential trend reversals. Bullish divergence : price makes lower lows while the oscillator makes higher lows (suggests weakening bearish momentum). Bearish divergence : price makes higher highs while the oscillator makes lower highs (suggests weakening bullish momentum). Divergences are most reliable when they occur near extreme levels and should be confirmed with price action before taking trades.
6) Use smoothing wisely — The smoothing parameter helps reduce noise but adds lag. Lower smoothing (3-5) is more responsive; higher smoothing (7-10) is more stable but slower to react.
7) Combine with price action — Use the oscillator to confirm trend direction, then look for entry opportunities when price pulls back in the direction of the trend. The optional price bar coloring helps visualize trend alignment on the main chart.
8) Filter with bias multiplier — The bias multiplier can help reduce false signals. Experiment with values between 1.000 and 1.005 to find the sweet spot for your instrument and timeframe.

Ram Trend Scoring (Current TF Enhanced)Overview
The Ram Trend Scoring indicator is a trend & momentum scoring tool for Forex and other instruments. It evaluates multiple technical factors on the current timeframe to classify pairs as:
8 EMA Momentum Pair – strong trending momentum
20 EMA Pullback Pair – weaker trend, possible pullback setups
It uses a points-based system, where points are added for positive factors or subtracted for failed EMA conditions.
Scoring Components
Trend Structure – price relative to EMA20
ADX Strength – trend strength (>25 strong, >20 moderate)
Distance from EMA8 – price proximity to short-term EMA
Candle Body Strength – larger bodies indicate stronger momentum
Pullback Depth – evaluates how deep the retracement is
EMA8 Wick Rejection – bullish/bearish rejection near EMA8
EMA Separation – priority #1; ≥20 pips difference required, penalty -2 if not
EMA Angle – priority #2; slope ≥30° required, penalty -2 if not
EMA Order – priority #3; correct EMA8/EMA20 alignment, penalty -2 if not
Total Score = Sum of all factor scores.
Classification Threshold: default 12
Total ≥ threshold → “8 EMA Momentum Pair”
Total < threshold → “20 EMA Pullback Pair”

Liquidity Hunter Pro v11.9 — TQI EditionLiquidity Hunter Pro v12 is built for intraday traders who want structure, clarity, and precision without unnecessary clutter. The tool blends market structure, momentum, trend alignment, volatility regime analysis, and liquidity mapping into a single unified model.
This version focuses on three core goals:
1. Identify only high-quality, directional market conditions.
The engine filters through HTF bias, short-term structure shifts, RSI momentum, and volatility compression/expansion. The idea is simple: wait for the market to become clean, aligned, and directional before considering an entry.
2. Map liquidity and detect sweeps in real time.
Major highs and lows are tracked using extended pivots, and the system highlights key areas where stop hunts or sweeps may occur. Sweeps and pressure zones are evaluated and factored directly into the quality score.
3. Grade every potential setup with a single, objective metric (TQI).
The Trade Quality Index (0–5⭐) compresses all signals into one reading so the trader can quickly judge whether a setup has enough quality to act on.
The script includes:
• Trend + Momentum + Structure detection
• HTF bias (optional)
• Volatility regime analysis
• Liquidity sweeps + pressure zones
• Micro-confirmation engine
• PQI (0–100%)
• TQI (0–5⭐)
• Clean HUD and Driver’s Guide
• Auto-cleaning labels and signal management
• Optional session filtering (London/NY)
This tool is designed for traders who value confirmation over noise.
It will not fire constantly.
It will wait patiently for clean, directional, aligned markets — and only then issue a signal.
How to Use Liquidity Hunter Pro v12
1. Check the HUD (top-right by default)
The HUD is your dashboard. Before doing anything:
A. HTF Bias
This is your map. Only trade in the direction of the bias.
B. Trend / Momentum / Structure
These should ideally all match the direction of the bias.
If they don’t line up → wait. No alignment = low probability.
C. Liquidity + Volatility Regime
“Sweep ↑→↓” or “Sweep ↓→↑” = potential reversal points
“Expansion” = clean conditions
“Compression” = choppy, avoid
You don’t need to overthink any of this — just think:
“Are the ingredients lined up?”
2. Wait for a valid signal
The indicator will only trigger a BUY or SELL when:
✓ HTF bias aligns
✓ Trend & momentum align
✓ Structure supports the move
✓ Micro-confirmation kicks in
✓ PQI ≥ 75
✓ Sessions are open (optional)
Signals are rare on purpose.
When one prints, you know the market conditions are stacked.
3. Read the label
Each signal prints a small block next to the candle containing:
• Entry price
• SL (based on structure)
• TP(2R) suggestion
• Liquidity context (e.g., sweep or pressure)
• Volatility regime
• TQI ⭐ rating (0–5)
This helps you judge the setup instantly.
A simple rule for beginners:
Trade only if TQI ≥ ⭐⭐⭐
Lower than that = more noise, less edge.
4. Use the liquidity zones
The script plots subtle boxes at recent liquidity highs/lows.
These mark:
• Where the market may hunt stops
• Where reversals often start
• Where signals are more meaningful
When a signal happens near liquidity → higher quality.
5. Follow the session filter (optional but recommended)
By default the tool focuses on:
• London session
• New York session
That removes 70% of low-volatility garbage.
You can turn this off if you trade crypto or indices overnight, but beginners usually benefit from keeping it on.
Recommended Settings
These are the settings used by most testers and early users.
Everything is configurable, but start with this:
Core Settings
• Fast EMA: 21
• Slow EMA: 55
• RSI Length: 14
• Pivot Lookback: 2
These settings create balanced structure detection and smooth trend signals.
HTF Bias
• Use HTF Bias: ON
• HTF Timeframe: 240 (H4)
H4 bias keeps you out of counter-trend traps.
Sessions
• Use London/NY Filter: ON
• London: 08:00–17:00
• New York: 13:30–21:00
Perfect for FX, indices, and metals.
Crypto traders: turn sessions OFF.
HUD + Guide
• HUD: ON
• Guide: ON
• Linger Bars: 12
This keeps things readable and prevents clutter.
Trading Tips for Beginners
These help keep you out of trouble:
1. Don’t fade the bias.
If HTF says bearish → avoid buys.
2. Don’t trade in compression regimes.
It saves you from chop.
3. Don’t chase signals that fire far from structure.
If the signal candle is huge, let it go.
4. Don’t trade without at least ⭐⭐⭐.
You’ll thank yourself later.
Final Thoughts
Liquidity Hunter Pro v12 isn’t meant to spam signals.
It’s meant to filter hard, highlight clean conditions, and help new traders avoid the traps the market throws every day.
Treat it as a trading assistant that tells you:
“The environment is right. Now you decide.”
Periodic Volume Time Velocity ProfileThis is the Periodic Volume Time Velocity Profile (PVTVP). It is an advanced professional profiling tool that goes beyond standard volume analysis by introducing Time and Velocity (Flow Rate) as profile dimensions.
By analyzing high-resolution intra-bar data, it builds
precise profiles for any custom period (Session, Day, Week, etc.),
helping you understand not just *where* the market traded,
but *how* it traded there.
## The 3 Dimensions of the Market
Unlike standard tools that only show Volume, PVTVP allows you
to switch between three critical metrics:
1. **VOLUME Profile (The "Where"):**
* Shows standard acceptance. High volume nodes (HVN)
are magnets for price.
2. **TIME Profile (The "How Long"):**
* Similar to TPO, it measures how long price spent at each
level.
* **High Time:** True acceptance and fair value.
* **Low Time:** Rejection or rapid movement.
3. **VELOCITY Profile (The "How Fast"):**
* Measures the **speed of trading** (Contracts per Second).
This reveals the hidden intent of market participants.
* **High Velocity (Fast Flow):** Aggression. Initiative
buyers/sellers are hitting market orders rapidly. Often
seen at breakouts or in liquidity vacuums.
* **Low Velocity (Slow Flow):** Absorption. Massive passive
limit orders are slowing price down despite high volume.
Often seen at major reversals ("hitting a brick wall").
## Key Features
1. **Statistical Volume Profile Engine:** For each bar in the selected
period, the indicator builds a complete volume profile on a lower
'Intra-Bar Timeframe'. Instead of simple tick counting, it uses
**statistical models ('PDF' allocation)** to distribute volume
across price levels and **advanced classifiers ('Dynamic' split)**
to determine the buy/sell pressure within that profile.
2. **Flexible Profile Display:** The **finalized profile** (plotted at
the end of each period) can be visualized in three distinct
ways: 'Up/Down' (buy vs. sell), 'Total' (combined volume),
and 'Delta' (net difference).
3. **Developing Key Levels:** The indicator also plots the developing
Point of Control (POC), Value Area (VA), VWAP, and Standard
Deviation bands in real-time as the period unfolds, providing
live insights into the emerging market structure.
4. **Dynamic Row Sizing:** Includes an option ('Rows per Percent')
to automatically adjust the number of profile rows (buckets)
based on the profile's price range, maintaining a consistent
visual density.
5. **Integrated Alerts:** Includes 12 alerts that trigger when the
main price crosses over or under the key developing levels:
POC, VWAP, Value Area High/Low, and the +/- Standard
Deviation bands.
**Caution: Real-Time Data Behavior (Intra-Bar Repainting)**
This indicator uses high-resolution intra-bar data. As a result, the
values on the **current, unclosed bar** (the real-time bar) will
update dynamically as new intra-bar data arrives. This behavior is
normal and necessary for this type of analysis. Signals should only
be considered final **after the main chart bar has closed.**

Tactical Holding [SwissAlgo]Tactical Holding
A visual framework for managing long-term positions across market cycles
--------------------------------------------------------------
Purpose
Instead of holding a fixed position through all market conditions , you can use this framework to adjust your exposure tactically . By reducing positions during distribution phases and accumulating during favorable accumulation zones, you may end up holding more units of the asset over complete market cycles - even if you temporarily exit or reduce exposure during unfavorable periods. This approach aims to help you compound your holdings by taking advantage of market volatility rather than simply enduring it.
--------------------------------------------------------------
Recommended Settings
Timeframe : Weekly (1W) chart
Chart Type : Standard candlesticks (select 'Bar' type Candles)
This indicator is designed for higher timeframe analysis. While it can be applied to other timeframes, the logic and signal generation are optimized for weekly charts to filter out short-term noise and focus on major market cycles.
--------------------------------------------------------------
Key Features
♦ Market State Classification
The indicator aims to categorize potential market conditions into five color-coded states based on technical confluences:
* Bull (bright green): Multiple bullish indicators align
* Bull Retrace (teal): Bullish structure with temporary weakness
* Bull ⇆ Bear Reversal (yellow): Transitional phase between trends
* Bear (bright red): Multiple bearish indicators align
* Bear Retrace (Pale Red/Maroon): Bearish structure with temporary strength
♦ Visual Elements
* Candles change color based on the current market state
* A 50-period EMA tracks with the same color coding, providing visual trend context
* Small arrow markers appear when specific pattern conditions are met (zones for potential distribution or accumulation)
* A legend table (toggle on/off) explains the color system
* A label shows the current state name on the chart
♦ Pattern Recognition
The system monitors for two types of potential entry/exit zones:
1. State transition patterns after periods of market regime consistency
2. RSI divergence patterns (when price and momentum move in opposite directions)
♦ Customization
* Toggle the legend table visibility through settings
* All calculations are transparent and use standard technical analysis methods
--------------------------------------------------------------
How It Works
Think of this indicator as a traffic light system for your portfolio:
♦ Green zones suggest the asset might be in an environment where long-term holders historically have remained invested
Bright green (Bull) : Multiple technical indicators align in a potentially strong bullish phase
Pale green (Bull Retrace) : Bullish structure remains intact, but momentum shows temporary weakness - often a pullback within an uptrend
♦ Red zones suggest conditions where long-term holders might consider reducing exposure or waiting for better entry points
Dark red (Bear) : Multiple technical indicators align in a potentially strong bearish phase
Pale red (Bear Retrace) : Bearish structure remains intact but shows temporary strength - often a bounce within a downtrend
♦ Yellow zones indicate the market is in transition between bull and bear regimes - a time for increased attention as the trend direction becomes uncertain
The system doesn't predict future prices. Instead, it helps you understand the current technical environment by doing the heavy lifting of analyzing multiple indicators at once and presenting them in a simple visual format.
Example: During the 2022 crypto bear market, the indicator would have displayed extended red periods, signaling defensive conditions for holders. When accumulation arrows appeared in late 2022-early 2023, it highlighted potential re-entry zones as the technical regime transitioned back toward green, before the 2024 recovery.
--------------------------------------------------------------
Who This Is For
♦ Long-term investors who want to hold assets through cycles but prefer a systematic approach to position sizing and timing rather than buying and never selling .
♦ Portfolio managers looking for a visual tool to help determine when to increase or decrease exposure to specific assets based on technical regime changes.
♦ Swing traders on higher timeframes who want to align their positions with the broader market structure rather than fighting the trend.
This is not designed for:
* Day traders or scalpers
* Those seeking exact entry/exit prices
* Automated trading systems (this is a visual decision-support tool)
--------------------------------------------------------------
Understanding the Visuals
When you apply Tactical Holding to a chart, you'll see:
1. Colored candles - Instantly see what market regime the asset is in
2. Colored EMA line (thick line) - Provides a dynamic support/resistance reference that changes color with market conditions
3. Small arrows (↑ ↓) - Mark bars where specific technical patterns complete
4. State label - Shows current market classification
5. Legend table (top right) - Quick reference guide for the color system
6. Warning banner (top center) - Reminds you to use weekly charts
The visual design prioritizes clarity over complexity. You should be able to glance at a chart and immediately understand the current technical environment.
--------------------------------------------------------------
Important Limitations
This indicator cannot:
* Predict future price movements
* Guarantee profitable trades
* Work equally well on all assets or timeframes
* Replace your own research and risk management
Technical considerations:
* Divergence detection has a 3-bar confirmation lag (by design, to avoid false signals)
* State transitions require multiple technical confirmations, which may cause delayed reactions to rapid market changes
* The system is reactive, not predictive - it responds to price action after it occurs
* Performance varies significantly between trending assets (like Solana) and stable assets (like Apple)
--------------------------------------------------------------
Practical Application
Consider using this indicator as one component of a broader investment framework:
♦ Understanding Position Context:
The color-coded states can help frame your thinking about current holdings:
Bull: Technical conditions that have historically been associated with sustained uptrends
Bull Retrace: Pullbacks within an overall bullish structure- these periods may offer opportunities to evaluate entry points or reassess existing positions
Reversal (Yellow): Transitional phases where the trend direction is unclear - periods that may warrant closer monitoring
Bear Retrace: Temporary strength within an overall bearish structure - rallies that historically have often faded
Bear: Technical conditions that have historically been associated with sustained downtrends
♦ Interpreting Signal Arrows:
Arrow markers indicate when specific technical pattern conditions have been met. These are observation points, not instructions:
A signal appearing doesn't mean immediate action is required
Treat arrows as prompts for further analysis rather than automatic triggers
Consider the broader context: fundamentals, your investment timeline, risk tolerance, and overall market conditions
Signals show when historical technical patterns have formed - not whether those patterns will lead to the same outcomes as in the past
The framework is designed to organize information visually, not to tell you what to do. Your investment decisions should incorporate this technical perspective alongside other factors relevant to your situation.
--------------------------------------------------------------
Technical Methodology
For transparency, the indicator uses:
* RSI (14) with a 14-period SMA to assess momentum direction
* MACD (12,26,9) to confirm trend strength and histogram momentum
* Stochastic RSI with K and D line crossovers for additional confirmation
* 50-period EMA as the primary trend filter
* Linear regression-based slope analysis to detect flat/transitional periods
* Pivot-based divergence detection following standard technical analysis principles
All calculations use publicly available technical analysis formulas. Nothing is hidden or proprietary beyond the specific combination and weighting of these standard tools.

MA SMART Angle
### 📊 WHAT IS MA SMART ANGLE?
**MA SMART Angle** is an advanced momentum and trend detection indicator that analyzes the angles (slopes) of multiple moving averages to generate clear, non-repainting BUY and SELL signals.
**Original Concept Credit:** This indicator builds upon the "MA Angles" concept originally created by **JD** (also known as Duyck). The core angle calculation methodology and Jurik Moving Average (JMA) implementation by **Everget** are preserved from the original open-source work. The angle calculation formula was contributed by **KyJ**. This enhanced version is published with respect to the open-source nature of the original indicator.
Original indicator reference: "ma angles - JD" by Duyck
---
## 🎯 ORIGINALITY & VALUE PROPOSITION
### **What Makes This Different from the Original:**
While the original "MA Angles" by **JD** provided excellent angle visualization, it lacked actionable entry signals. **MA SMART Angle** addresses this by adding:
**1. Clear Entry/Exit Signals**
- Explicit BUY/SELL arrows based on angle crossovers, momentum confirmation, and MA alignment
- No guessing when to enter trades - the indicator tells you exactly when conditions align
**2. Non-Repainting Logic**
- All signals use confirmed historical data (shifted by 2 bars minimum)
- Critical for backtesting reliability and live trading confidence
- Original indicator could repaint signals on current bar
**3. Dual Signal System**
- **Simple Mode:** More frequent signals based on angle crossovers + momentum (for active traders)
- **Strict Mode:** Requires full multi-MA alignment + momentum confirmation (for conservative traders)
- Adaptable to different trading styles and risk tolerances
**4. Smart Signal Filtering**
- **Anti-spam cooldown:** Prevents duplicate signals within configurable bar count
- **No-trade zone detection:** Filters out low-conviction sideways markets automatically
- **Multi-timeframe MA alignment:** Ensures all moving averages agree on direction before signaling
**5. Enhanced Visualization**
- Large, clear BUY/SELL arrows with descriptive labels
- Color-coded backgrounds for market states (trending vs. ranging)
- Momentum histogram showing acceleration/deceleration in real-time
- Live status table displaying trend strength, angle value, momentum, and MA alignment
**6. Professional Alert System**
- Four distinct alert conditions: BUY Signal, SELL Signal, Strong BUY, Strong SELL
- Enables automated trade notifications and strategy integration
**7. Modified MA Periods**
- Original used EMA(27), EMA(83), EMA(278)
- Enhanced version uses faster EMA(3), EMA(8), EMA(13) for more responsive signals
- Better suited for modern volatile markets and shorter timeframes
---
## 📐 HOW IT WORKS - TECHNICAL EXPLANATION
### **Core Methodology:**
The indicator calculates angles (slopes) for five key moving averages:
- **JMA (Jurik Moving Average)** - Smooth, lag-reduced trend line (original implementation by **Everget**)
- **JMA Fast** - Responsive momentum indicator with higher power parameter
- **MA27 (EMA 3)** - Primary fast-moving average for signal generation
- **MA83 (EMA 8)** - Medium-term trend confirmation
- **MA278 (EMA 13)** - Slower trend filter
### **Angle Calculation Formula (by KyJ):**
```
angle = arctan((MA - MA ) / ATR(14)) × (180 / π)
```
**Why ATR normalization?**
- Makes angles comparable across different instruments (forex, stocks, crypto)
- Makes angles comparable across different timeframes
- Accounts for volatility - a 10-point move in different assets has different significance
**Angle Interpretation:**
- **> 15°** = Strong trend (momentum accelerating)
- **0° to 15°** = Weak trend (momentum present but moderate)
- **-2° to +2°** = No-trade zone (sideways/choppy market)
- **< -15°** = Strong downtrend
### **Signal Generation Logic:**
#### **BUY Signal Conditions:**
1. MA27 angle crosses above 0° (upward momentum initiates)
2. All three EMAs (3, 8, 13) pointing upward (trend alignment confirmed)
3. Momentum is positive for 2+ bars (acceleration, not deceleration)
4. Angle exceeds minimum threshold (not in no-trade zone)
5. Cooldown period passed (prevents signal spam)
#### **SELL Signal Conditions:**
1. MA27 angle crosses below 0° (downward momentum initiates)
2. All three EMAs pointing downward (downtrend alignment)
3. Momentum is negative for 2+ bars
4. Angle below negative threshold (not in no-trade zone)
5. Cooldown period passed
#### **Strong BUY+ / SELL+ Signals:**
Additional entry opportunities when JMA Fast crosses JMA Slow while maintaining strong directional angle - indicates momentum acceleration within established trend.

- **Strict:** Angle crossover AND all MAs aligned AND momentum confirmed
- Start with Simple, switch to Strict if too many false signals
**4. Minimum Angle for Signal** (default: 5°)
- Only generate signals when angle exceeds this threshold
- Higher values = stronger trends required
- Lower values = more sensitive to momentum changes
**5. Cooldown Bars** (default: 5)
- Minimum bars between consecutive signals
- Prevents spam during volatile chop
- Scale with your timeframe (higher TF = more bars)
**6. Color Bars** (default: true)
- Colors chart bars based on signal state
- Green = bullish conditions, Red = bearish conditions
- Can disable if you prefer clean price bars
**7. Background Colors**
- **Yellow background** = No-trade zone (low angle, ranging market)
- **Green flash** = BUY signal generated
- **Red flash** = SELL signal generated
- All customizable or can be disabled

BTC CME Gaps Detector [SwissAlgo]BTC CME Gaps Detector
Track Unfilled Gaps & Identify Price Magnets
------------------------------------------------------
Overview
The BTC CME Gap Detector identifies and tracks unfilled price gaps on any timeframe (1-minute recommended for scalping) to gauge potential trading bias.
Verify Gap Behavior Yourself : Use TradingView's Replay Mode on the 1-Minute chart to observe how the price interacts with gaps. Load the BTC1! ticker (Bitcoin CME Futures), enable Replay Mode, and play forward through time (for example: go back 15 days). You may observe patterns such as price frequently returning to fill gaps, nearest gaps acting as near-term targets, and gaps serving as potential support/resistance zones. Some gaps may fill quickly, while others may remain open for longer periods. This hands-on analysis lets you independently assess how gaps may influence price movement in real market conditions and whether you may use this indicator as a complement to your trading analysis.
------------------------------------------------------
Purpose
Price gaps occur when there is a discontinuity between consecutive candles - when the current candle's low is above the previous candle's high (gap up), or when the current candle's high is below the previous candle's low (gap down).
This indicator identifies and tracks these gaps on any timeframe to help traders:
Identify gap zones that may attract price (potential "price magnets")
Monitor gap fill progression
Assess potential directional bias based on nearest unfilled gaps (long, short)
Analyze market structure and liquidity imbalances
------------------------------------------------------
Why Use This Indicator?
Universal Gap Detection : Identifies all gaps on any timeframe (1-minute, hourly, daily, etc.)
Multi-Candle Mitigation Tracking : Detects gap fills that occur across multiple candles
Distance Analysis : Shows percentage distance to nearest bullish and bearish gaps
Visual Representation : Color-coded boxes indicate gap status (active vs. mitigated)
Age Filtering : Option to display only gaps within specified time periods (3/6/12/24 months), as older gaps may lose relevance
ATR-Based Sizing : Minimum gap size adjusts to instrument volatility to filter noise (i.e. small gaps)
------------------------------------------------------
Trading Concept
Gaps represent price zones where no trading occurred. Historical market behavior suggests that unfilled gaps may attract price action as markets tend to revisit areas of incomplete price discovery. This phenomenon creates potential trading opportunities:
Bullish gaps (above current price) may act as upside targets where the price could move to fill the gap
Bearish gaps (below current price) may act as downside targets where price could move to fill the gap
The nearest gap often provides directional bias, as closer gaps may have a higher probability of being filled in the near term
This indicator helps quantify gap proximity and provides a visual reference for these potential target zones.
EXAMPLE
Step 1: Bearish Gaps Appear Below Price
Step 2: Price Getting Close to Fill Gap
Step 3: Gap Mitigated Gap
------------------------------------------------------
Recommended Setup
Timeframe: 1-minute chart recommended for maximum gap detection frequency. Works on all timeframes (higher timeframes will show fewer, larger gaps).
Symbol: Any tradable instrument. Originally designed for BTC1! (CME Bitcoin Futures) but compatible with all symbols.
Settings:
ATR Length: 14 (default)
Min Gap Size: 0.5x ATR (adjust based on timeframe and noise level)
Gap Age Limit: 3 months (configurable)
Max Historical Gaps: 300 (adjustable 1-500)
------------------------------------------------------
How It Works
Gap Detection : Identifies price discontinuities on every candle where:
Gap up: current candle low > previous candle high
Gap down: current candle high < previous candle low
Minimum gap size filter (ATR-based) eliminates insignificant gaps
Mitigation Tracking : Monitors when price touches both gap boundaries. A gap is marked as filled when the price has touched both the top and bottom of the gap zone, even if this occurs across multiple candles.
Visual Elements :
Green boxes: Unfilled gaps above current price (potential bullish targets)
Red boxes: Unfilled gaps below current price (potential bearish targets)
Gray boxes: Filled gaps (historical reference)
Labels: Display gap type, price level, and distance percentage
Analysis Table: Shows :
Distance % to nearest bullish gap (above price)
Distance % to nearest bearish gap (below price)
Trade bias (LONG if nearest gap is above, SHORT if nearest gap is below)
------------------------------------------------------
Key Features
Detects gaps on any timeframe (1m, 5m, 1h, 1D, etc.)

US Leverage Overlay — Margin Debt & Total Credit (YoY / Z-score)What this does
An overlay indicator that brings U.S. leverage proxies from FRED onto your main price chart (left axis). Choose between a proxy for investor margin debt or total credit market debt and view them as YoY %, Z-score of YoY, or an Indexed Level so they’re comparable with price without wrecking the scale.
Data sources (FRED symbols)
--- Margin (investor leverage proxy): FRED:BOGZ1FL663067003Q
Brokers & Dealers; Receivables Due from Customers ≈ margin loans (quarterly).
--- TotalCredit (economy-wide leverage): FRED:TCMDO
All sectors; Debt Securities & Loans; Liability (quarterly).
Note: These are quarterly series. The indicator samples monthly and holds values between official prints, so you’ll see step-like updates when new data drops.
Views (pick one in settings)
--- YoY % — 12-month rate of change. Above 0% = leverage expanding; below 0% = contracting.
--- Z-score (YoY) — Standardizes YoY vs. its recent history to flag unusual moves (regime shifts).
--- Indexed Level — 100 × (level / moving average), a compact “above/below trend” view.
How to read quickly
--- Rising YoY % > 0 → leverage expansion (often supportive for risk).
--- Falling YoY % < 0 → deleveraging headwind.
--- Z-score spikes (±2) → unusually fast changes; watch for volatility or policy inflections.
--- Indexed Level crossing down through 100 → slipping below trend.
Inputs
--- Data source: Margin or TotalCredit
--- YoY/Z-score lookbacks and Index baseline length
--- Overlay: overlay=true, scale=scale.left (uses its own left axis by default)
Tips
--- If it spawns in a sub-pane, right-click the label → Move to → Main chart.
--- For context, consider adding related series on separate panes:
FRED:TOTALSL (Consumer Credit), FRED:REVOLSL (Credit Cards),
FRED:BUSLOANS (C&I Loans), FRED:TDSP (Debt Service Ratio).
--- Occasionally FRED returns “Failed to fetch”; re-add or reload fixes it.
Why it’s useful
Equity drawdowns often line up with turns in leverage (households, corporates, or brokers). This overlay gives you a clean, normalized read so you can spot expansion vs. contraction alongside price action.
Compatibility
--- Pine Script® v6
--- Works on any chart timeframe (data internally sampled monthly)

MACD crossover while RSI Oversold/Overbought# MACD Crossover with RSI Overbought/Oversold Indicator Explained
## Indicator Overview
This is a trading signal system that combines two classic technical indicators: **MACD (Moving Average Convergence Divergence)** and **RSI (Relative Strength Index)**. Its core logic is: MACD crossover signals are only triggered when RSI is in extreme zones (overbought/oversold), thereby filtering out many false signals and improving trading accuracy.
## Core Principles
### 1. **Dual Confirmation Mechanism**
This indicator doesn't use MACD or RSI alone, but requires both conditions to be met simultaneously:
- **Short Signal (Orange Triangle)**: MACD bearish crossover (fast line crosses below signal line) + RSI was overbought (≥71)
- **Long Signal (Green Triangle)**: MACD bullish crossover (fast line crosses above signal line) + RSI was oversold (≤29)
### 2. **RSI Memory Function**
The indicator checks the RSI values of the current and past 5 candlesticks. As long as any one of them reaches the overbought/oversold level, the condition is satisfied. This design avoids overly strict requirements, as RSI may have already left the extreme zone before the MACD crossover occurs.
```pine
wasOversold = rsi <= 29 or rsi <= 29 or ... or rsi <= 29
wasOverbought = rsi >= 71 or rsi >= 71 or ... or rsi >= 71
```
## Parameter Settings
### MACD Parameters
- **Fast MA**: 12 periods (adjustable 7-∞)
- **Slow MA**: 26 periods (adjustable 7-∞)
- **Signal Line**: 9 periods
### RSI Parameters
- **Oversold Threshold**: 29 (traditional 30)
- **Overbought Threshold**: 71 (traditional 70)
- **Calculation Period**: 14
## Visual Elements
### 1. **Signal Markers**
- 🔻 **Orange Downward Triangle**: Appears above the candlestick, labeled "overbought", indicating a shorting opportunity
- 🔺 **Green Upward Triangle**: Appears below the candlestick, labeled "oversold", indicating a long opportunity
### 2. **Price Level Lines**
- **Orange Dashed Line**: Extends rightward from the high of the short signal, serving as a potential resistance level
- **Green Dashed Line**: Extends rightward from the low of the long signal, serving as a potential support level
Each time a new signal appears, the old level line is deleted, keeping only the most recent reference line.
## Trading Logic Explained
### Short Signal Scenario
1. Price rises, RSI surges above 71 (market overheated)
2. Momentum subsequently weakens, MACD fast line crosses below signal line
3. Indicator draws an orange triangle at the high, alerting to reversal risk
4. Orange dashed line marks the high point of the short entry position
### Long Signal Scenario
1. Price falls, RSI drops below 29 (market oversold)
2. Selling pressure exhausted, MACD fast line crosses above signal line
3. Indicator draws a green triangle at the low, suggesting a rebound opportunity
4. Green dashed line marks the low point of the long entry position
## Advantages and Limitations
### ✅ Advantages
- **Filters Noise**: Reduces false signals through dual confirmation
- **Captures Reversals**: Catches trend reversals in extreme conditions
- **Visual Clarity**: Level lines help identify support/resistance
- **Built-in Alerts**: Can set up message push notifications
### ⚠️ Limitations
- **Lag**: Both indicators are lagging, signals may be delayed
- **Poor Performance in Ranging Markets**: Prone to whipsaws during consolidation
- **Needs Other Analysis**: Should not be the sole decision-making basis
- **Parameter Sensitivity**: Different markets and timeframes may require parameter adjustments
## Practical Trading Suggestions
1. **Confirm Trend Context**: Counter-trend signals carry high risk in strong trending markets
2. **Combine with Candlestick Patterns**: Confirm with patterns (such as engulfing, hammer candles)
3. **Set Stop Losses**: Use level lines as stop-loss references (long stop below green line, short stop above orange line)
4. **Watch Volume**: Signals accompanied by high volume are more reliable
5. **Multi-Timeframe Verification**: Signals appearing simultaneously on daily and 4-hour charts are more credible
## Summary
This indicator follows the "mean reversion from extremes" philosophy, seeking reversal opportunities when market sentiment becomes excessive. It's suitable for auxiliary judgment, particularly in swing trading and position trading strategies. But remember, no indicator is perfect—always combine risk management and multi-dimensional analysis when making trading decisions
RSI MTF Table - 12 Pairs (1,5,15)
The relative strength index measures the speed and magnitude of an asset's recent price changes. Therefore, it is considered a momentum indicator in technical analysis. Essentially, the RSI is the ratio of the days an asset's value increases to decreases over a given period.
Generally speaking, if the RSI is around 50, we do not expect strong movements. RSI above 65 or below 35 are areas we expect. In this context, this chart and the general momentum in 1-5-15 minutes allow us to quickly determine the parity we will trade. It is useful for intraday trading and scalping.

• Signals are NOT repainting after pivot confirmation
• Not a "holy grail" - combine with other analysis and proper risk management
• Requires patience - quality setups are infrequent but high-probability
• Always backtest on historical data before live trading
ELLIOTT WAVE THEORY BACKGROUND
------------------------------
Elliott Wave Theory, developed by Ralph Nelson Elliott in the 1930s, proposes that market prices move in predictable wave patterns driven by investor psychology. An impulse wave consists of five sub-waves (three in the trend direction, two corrections), followed by a three-wave correction. This indicator automates the identification of these patterns and validates them against Elliott's original rules.

Fat Tony's Composite Momentum Histogram (v01)Fat Tony's Composite Momentum Histogram (v01)
Overview
Fat Tony's Composite Momentum Histogram (v01) is a sophisticated momentum oscillator that combines four powerful technical analysis components into a single, unified signal. Unlike traditional single-indicator approaches, this tool synthesizes Williams %R, Stochastic, MACD Histogram, and Rate of Change to provide a comprehensive view of momentum across multiple timeframes and calculation methods.
The indicator displays as a histogram that oscillates between -150 and +150, with overbought/oversold zones clearly marked at +100/-100. When momentum crosses above the oversold level with sufficient volume, a green triangle appears below the histogram signaling a potential long entry. Conversely, when momentum crosses below the overbought level, a red triangle appears above signaling a potential short entry.
What Makes This Different
Multi-Component Synthesis: Rather than relying on a single momentum calculation, this indicator averages four complementary momentum measures, each capturing different aspects of price action:
Williams %R captures overbought/oversold conditions
Stochastic tracks momentum relative to recent price range
MACD Histogram shows trend strength and potential reversals
Rate of Change measures velocity of price movement, normalized by volatility
Intelligent Volume Weighting: The indicator amplifies signals when volume confirms the move. Recent volume is compared to a 20-bar average using a logarithmic scale, preventing extreme spikes from distorting the signal while still rewarding genuine volume-backed momentum.
Adaptive Normalization: The MACD component uses a 200-bar standard deviation to adaptively scale itself, ensuring the indicator remains responsive across different market conditions and volatility regimes.
Volume Filtering: Optional minimum volume threshold (5-bar average) prevents false signals during low-liquidity periods when price moves may not be meaningful.
Key Features
Composite Signal: Combines four momentum indicators into one cohesive oscillator
Volume Confirmation: Optional volume weighting amplifies signals backed by strong participation
Trend Filter: Optional EMA-200 filter to trade only with the dominant trend
Visual Clarity: Color-coded histogram (blue for positive, orange for negative, red/green at extremes)
Automatic Alerts: Built-in alerts for entry and exit signals
Customizable Thresholds: Adjust overbought/oversold levels to match your trading style
ROC Toggle: Enable/disable the Rate of Change component based on your preference
Debug Mode: View individual component plots for fine-tuning and validation
Settings & Customization
Momentum Settings
Length (default: 14): Primary calculation period for Williams %R and Stochastic
MACD Fast (default: 12): Fast EMA period for MACD calculation
MACD Slow (default: 26): Slow EMA period for MACD calculation
MACD Signal (default: 9): Signal line period for MACD
ROC Length (default: 10): Lookback period for Rate of Change calculation
MACD StDev Length (default: 200): Period for adaptive MACD normalization
Levels
Overbought Level (default: 100): Threshold for short signals
Oversold Level (default: -100): Threshold for long signals
Volume Settings
Enable Volume Weighting (default: ON): Amplifies signals when volume confirms
Volume Sensitivity (default: 1.5): Controls strength of volume impact (0.5-3.0)
Min Avg Volume (default: 50,000): Minimum 5-bar average volume to trigger signals
Components
Include ROC Component (default: ON): Adds Rate of Change to the composite
Enable Trend Filter (default: OFF): Only signals aligned with EMA-200 trend
Show Component Plots (default: OFF): Display individual components for analysis
How to Use
Basic Signal Interpretation:
Green triangle below histogram = Long signal (momentum crossing up through oversold)
Red triangle above histogram = Short signal (momentum crossing down through overbought)
Histogram color indicates momentum direction and strength
Background shading highlights extreme overbought/oversold zones
Entry Strategy:
Wait for the histogram to enter oversold territory (below -100) for longs, or overbought (above +100) for shorts
Look for the entry signal (triangle) when momentum crosses back through the threshold
Confirm the signal occurs with adequate volume (if volume filter is enabled)
Consider the trend filter if trading with the dominant direction only
Exit Strategy:
Optional exit signals appear when momentum crosses the zero line against your position
Consider taking profits at extreme opposite readings (e.g., long exit when reaching +100)
Use price action, support/resistance, or your own risk management for final exits
Fine-Tuning:
Shorter Length settings (8-10): More responsive, more signals, potentially more noise
Longer Length settings (18-21): Smoother signals, fewer false positives, slower response
Higher Volume Sensitivity: Requires stronger volume confirmation
Lower Overbought/Oversold Levels (±80): More frequent signals
Enable Trend Filter: Reduces signals but improves win rate by trading with trend
Best Practices
Combine with Price Action: Use this indicator to confirm what you're seeing on the price chart, not as a standalone system
Respect the Volume Filter: Low-volume signals are often false moves; the volume confirmation is there for a reason
Don't Chase: Wait for signals at extreme levels; entries in the middle zone tend to whipsaw
Use Multiple Timeframes: Check that momentum aligns across your trading timeframe and a higher timeframe
Backtest Your Settings: Default parameters work well on many instruments, but optimization for your specific market and timeframe can improve results
Technical Details
The indicator normalizes each component to a -50 to +50 range before averaging, ensuring equal weighting regardless of the raw scale differences between Williams %R, Stochastic, MACD, and ROC. The MACD component uses a hyperbolic tangent function for smooth, bounded normalization. Volume weighting applies a logarithmic scale to prevent extreme outliers from dominating the calculation while still capturing genuine volume surges.
Fat Tony's Composite Momentum + ROC (v0.4)Fat Tony's Composite Momentum + ROC Indicator
Overview
Fat Tony's Composite Momentum + ROC is a sophisticated momentum oscillator that combines multiple technical indicators into a single, volume-weighted signal. This indicator helps traders identify overbought/oversold conditions and potential reversal points by synthesizing Williams %R, Stochastic, MACD, and Rate of Change (ROC) into one composite reading.
Key Features
Multi-Indicator Composite: Combines Williams %R, Stochastic %K, MACD Histogram, and ROC for a comprehensive momentum view
Volume Weighting: Optional volume-based amplification to filter out low-conviction moves
Volume Filter: Requires minimum volume threshold (last 2 bars combined) before triggering signals
Adaptive MACD Scaling: Uses tanh normalization to keep MACD contribution proportional regardless of price volatility
Clear Visual Signals: Triangle markers appear only when crossing extreme levels with sufficient volume
Customizable Thresholds: Adjust overbought/oversold levels, volume sensitivity, and component lengths
How It Works
The indicator normalizes each component to a ±50 scale, then averages them together. The composite reading oscillates around zero, with positive values indicating bullish momentum and negative values indicating bearish momentum.
Signal Generation:
🟢 Rebound Watch (Green Triangle): Fires when the composite crosses UP through the oversold level with adequate volume
🔴 Fade Watch (Red Triangle): Fires when the composite crosses DOWN through the overbought level with adequate volume
Customizing Settings

Usage Tips
Works best on liquid instruments with consistent volume
Lower timeframes (5m-15m) benefit from higher minimum volume settings
Volume weighting helps filter out noise during consolidation periods
Watch for signal triangles at key support/resistance levels for highest probability setups
The indicator works as a momentum gauge and reversal spotter - not an entry system by itself
