ATR Volatility Spectrum
This indicator estimates price volatility and it is based on ATR only.
The advantage of this indicator is that it can be used with any pair, any time frame.
The fluctuations of a short period ATR with respect to a gently ATR with high period
are calculated.
The only parameters are the periods of the reference ATR and fast ATR, which could be
safely let untouched and modified by experts.
RED areas depict low volatility
GREEN areas depict high volatility.
When the clouds are outside the region delimited by the aqua lines we have
extreme conditions:
Extremely low volatility = red cloud outside the aqua bands
Extremely high volatility = green cloud outside the aqua bands

Black-Scholes Probability Model with Time-Based VolatilityI developed this tool to automate probability calculations and to verify if Polymarkets accurately reflects Bitcoin's value. The indicator uses a modified Black-Scholes model to estimate the likelihood of Bitcoin exceeding or falling below a $97,000 strike price by a specified end date, providing a "fair value" probability.
Key Features:
- Timeframe Control: Displays data only between a defined start and end date, ensuring relevance during the prediction period.
- Dynamic Volatility Calculation: Offers a choice between manual input and auto-calculated annualized volatility. The auto-calculation derives historical volatility from recent price data over a selected lookback period and adjusts it based on the time remaining until expiration. More time implies greater expected price movement; less time indicates a narrower expected range.
- Probability Estimation: Calculates an adjusted parameter (d1) and applies a normal cumulative distribution function (CDF) to determine:
- "Yes" (Green Line): Probability that Bitcoin will exceed $97,000.
- "No" (Red Line): Probability that Bitcoin will remain below $97,000.
When Bitcoin's price is exactly $97,000, the tool sets the probabilities to a balanced 50/50 split, indicating fair value.
- Fair Value Indicator: Includes a static white reference line at 50% probability. A 50/50 probability suggests Bitcoin is fairly valued at $97,000; deviations indicate potential overvaluation or undervaluation.
- Polymarkets Tracking & Trading Strategy: I use Polymarkets to access cost-effective, high-leverage long call options on Bitcoin. However, these options don't always mirror Bitcoin's price movements precisely. For instance, if I anticipate Bitcoin rising from $95,000 to $97,000 by day's end, the tool might show a fair value probability of 50%. If Polymarkets quotes a 50% chance, the alignment indicates a fair trade. In such cases, I can avoid an unfavorable trade or exploit the difference as an arbitrage opportunity.
- Personal Motivation: This indicator eliminates the need for manual calculations and ensures I can quickly assess when Polymarkets' pricing aligns with Bitcoin's actual value, leading to more informed trading decisions.
This tool automates probability and fair value assessments, serving as a practical resource for verifying and potentially capitalizing on discrepancies in Polymarkets' Bitcoin pricing. It helps identify when there's a mismatch between the market's implied probability and the calculated fair value, allowing me to avoid unnecessary premiums on high-leverage options.
Ultimate Volatility Scanner by NHBprod - Requested by Client!Hey Everyone!
I created another script to add to my growing library of strategies and indicators that I use for automated crypto and stock trading! This strategy is for BITCOIN but can be used on any stock or crypto. This was requested by a client so I thought I should create it and hopefully build off of it and build variants!
This script gets and compares the 14-day volatility using the ATR percentage for a list of cryptocurrencies and stocks. Cryptocurrencies are preloaded into the script, and the script will show you the TOP 5 coins in terms of volatility, and then compares it to the Bitcoin volatility as a reference. It updates these values once per day using daily timeframe data from TradingView. The coins are then sorted in descending order by their volatility.
If you don't want to use the preloaded set of coins, you have the option of inputting your own coins AND/OR stocks!
Let me know your thoughts.
VARS 2.0: Volatility Adapted Relative StrengthVARS 2.0 (Volatility Adapted Relative Strength)
Basically, my VARS 2.0 indicator uses a stock's alpha in comparison to the SPX to determine whether there is relative strength on an volatility adjusted basis.
The idea for this indicator owes quite obviously to Matt Caruso . In this indicator I combine his Alpha Bars indicator with my interpretation of his CARS indicator, whose calculations are unknown to me.
The goal of this indicator is to give a representation of an asset's relative strength adjusted to its volatility. To find out if this is not only theoretically superior to a more simple representation such as by means of the classic RS Line , but also practically , this indicator is build.
I made this indicator freely available, so that everyone can make up his own mind about it. The representation with the alpha bars also offers the possibility to keep an eye on the daily relative strength, which is a complement to my former version of it. This time I limited myself to only one alpha timeframe because I believe the strength of the RS can be more clearly captured based on the EMAs. I also believe that the absolute strength of VARS is not the key point for traders, but rather its duration, as this is a sign of institutional accumulation.
Have fun and success trying it out!
Btw. The variables such as alpha and beta and the EMAs, which are used to calculate VARS, are largely freely definable. The default values are to be considered as suggestions.
Multiple Frequency Volatility CorrelationThis is a complex indicator that looks to provide some insight into the correlation between volume and price volatility.
Rising volatility is depicted with the color green while falling volatility is depicted with purple.
Lightness of the color is used to depict the length of the window used, darker == shorter in the 2 -> 512 window range.

(JS) S&P 500 Volatility Oscillator For OptionsThe idea for this started here: www.tradingview.com with the user @dime
This should only be used on SPX or SPY (though you could use it on other things for correlation I suppose) given that the instrument used to create this calculation is derived from the S&P 500 (thank you VIX). There's a lot of moving parts here though, so allow me to explain...
First: The main signal is when Implied Volatility (from VIX) drops beneath Historical Volatility - which is what you want to see so you aren't purchasing a ton of premium on long options. Green and above 0 means that IV% has dropped lower than Historical Volatility. (this signal, for example, would suggest using a Long Call or Put depending on your sentiment)
Second: The green line running underneath zero is the bottom portion of the "Average True Range" derived from the values used to create the oscillator. the closer the bottom histogram is to the green line, the more "normal" IV% is. Obviously, if this gets far away from the line then it could be setting up nicely to short options and sell the IV premium to someone else. (this signal, for example, would suggest using something like a Bull Put Spread)
Third: The red background along with the white line that drops down below zero signals when (and how far) the IV% from 3 months out (from VIX3M) is less than the current IV%. This would signal the current environment has IV way too high, a signal to short options once again (and don't take any long option positions!).
Tried to make this simple, yet effective. If you trade options on SPX, SPY, even ES1! futures - this is a tool tailored specifically for you! As I said before, if you want you can use it for correlation on other securities. Any other ideas or suggestions surrounding this, please let me know! Enjoy!

Relative Volatility Index The RVI is a modified form of the relative strength index (RSI).
The original RSI calculation separates one-day net changes into
positive closes and negative closes, then smoothes the data and
normalizes the ratio on a scale of zero to 100 as the basis for the
formula. The RVI uses the same basic formula but substitutes the
10-day standard deviation of the closing prices for either the up
close or the down close. The goal is to create an indicator that
measures the general direction of volatility. The volatility is
being measured by the 10-days standard deviation of the closing prices.
Fibonacci Ratios with VolatilityThis script will plot Fibonacci ratios with volatility. The Fibonacci retracement and extensions are plotted in lower time frames up to 15 minutes and therefore, it can be used for intraday only.

ATR SpikesVolatility Spike Indicator (ATR based)
I read some of Adam Grimes' work and found he uses a tool called sigma spikes, his concept is to mark significance to daily bars that have returns over x standard deviations of a 20 period average of returns.
I have adapted this idea for intra day trading. I've used an ATR and marked significance to any bar with a range greater than 4 standard deviations of the ATR, this results in attention being drawn to bars with strong momentum behind them and often results in strong follow through.
Additionally, I have included a MA crossover (fast/slow) filter to the indicator, this removes any signals that are counter- short term trend/momentum.
This is a powerful tool for momentum traders as it clearly shows points when the market has significant volatility.

FVE Volatility color-coded Volume bar The FVE is a pure volume indicator. Unlike most of the other indicators
(except OBV), price change doesn?t come into the equation for the FVE
(price is not multiplied by volume), but is only used to determine whether
money is flowing in or out of the stock. This is contrary to the current trend
in the design of modern money flow indicators. The author decided against a
price-volume indicator for the following reasons:
- A pure volume indicator has more power to contradict.
- The number of buyers or sellers (which is assessed by volume) will be the same,
regardless of the price fluctuation.
- Price-volume indicators tend to spike excessively at breakouts or breakdowns.
This study is an addition to FVE indicator. Indicator plots different-coloured volume
bars depending on volatility.
Hawkes Volatility Exit IndicatorOverview
The Hawkes Volatility Exit Indicator is a powerful tool designed to help traders capitalize on volatility breakouts and exit positions when momentum fades. Built on the Hawkes process, it models volatility clustering to identify optimal entry points after quiet periods and exit signals during volatility cooling. Designed to be helpful for swing traders and trend followers across markets like stocks, forex, and crypto.
Key Features Volatility-Based Entries: Detects breakouts when volatility spikes above the 95th percentile (adjustable) after quiet periods (below 5th percentile).
This indicator is probably better on exits than entries.
Smart Exit Signals: Triggers exits when volatility drops below a customizable threshold (default: 30th percentile) after a minimum hold period.
Hawkes Process: Uses a decay-based model (kappa) to capture volatility clustering, making it responsive to market dynamics.
Visual Clarity: Includes a volatility line, exit threshold, percentile bands, and intuitive markers (triangles for entries, X for exits).
Status Table: Displays real-time data on position (LONG/SHORT/FLAT), volatility regime (HIGH/LOW/NORMAL), bars held, and exit readiness.
Customizable Alerts: Set alerts for breakouts and exits to stay on top of trading opportunities.
How It Works Quiet Periods: Identifies low volatility (below 5th percentile) that often precede significant moves.
Breakout Entries: Signals bullish (triangle up) or bearish (triangle down) entries when volatility spikes post-quiet period.
Exit Signals: Suggests exiting when volatility cools below the exit threshold after a minimum hold (default: 3 bars).
Visuals & Table: Tracks volatility, position status, and signals via lines, shaded zones, and a detailed status table.
Settings
Hawkes Kappa (0.1): Adjusts volatility decay (lower = smoother, higher = more sensitive).
Volatility Lookback (168): Sets the period for percentile calculations.
ATR Periods (14): Normalizes volatility using Average True Range.
Breakout Threshold (95%): Volatility percentile for entries.
Exit Threshold (30%): Volatility percentile for exits.
Quiet Threshold (5%): Defines quiet periods.
Minimum Hold Bars (3): Ensures positions are held before exiting.
Alerts: Enable/disable breakout and exit alerts.
How to Use
Entries: Look for triangle markers (up for long, down for short) and confirm with the status table showing "ENTRY" and "LONG"/"SHORT."
Exits: Exit on X cross markers when the status table shows "EXIT" and "Exit Ready: YES."
Monitoring: Use the status table to track position, bars held, and volatility regime (HIGH/LOW/NORMAL).
Combine: Pair with price action, support/resistance, or other indicators for better context.
Tips : Adjust thresholds for your market: lower breakout thresholds for more signals, higher exit thresholds for earlier exits.
Test on your asset to ensure compatibility (best for markets with volatility clustering).
Use alerts to automate signal detection.
Limitations Requires sufficient data (default: 168 bars) for reliable signals. Check "Data Status" in the table.
Focuses on volatility, not price direction—combine with trend tools.
May lag slightly due to the smoothing nature of the Hawkes process.
Why Use It?
The Hawkes Volatility Exit Indicator offers a unique, data-driven approach to timing trades based on volatility dynamics. Its clear visuals, customizable settings, and real-time status table make it a valuable addition to any trader’s toolkit. Try it to catch breakouts and exit with precision!
This indicator is based on neurotrader888's python repo. All credit to him. All mistakes mine.

- **Strong Bearish**: Price below all indicator lines
- **Consolidation/Neutral**: Price between indicator lines, especially within volatility bands
### Market Participation Assessment
- **Inside Volatility Bands**: Insufficient market participants to establish clear direction
- **Short-Term Volatility Mode Advantage**: More clearly defines the neutral zone where price is caught between momentum lines and volatility bands
- **Consolidation Identification**: When price fluctuates between all indicator lines, market is seeking equilibrium
Trading Strategies
Momentum Breakouts
Wait for price to break above/below all the lines with a body close. Green for Bullish and Red for Bearish
For Short Term Mode:
Look for the first retest of any of the indicator lines (momentum or signal lines)
Wait for a reaction with body close candle (a candle that remains green/red is significantly more reliable)
Confirm that the reaction candle's body closes below/above all indicator lines
Enter after this precise line test and reaction sequence
Bearish Example
Bullish example
For Long Term Mode:
Look for the first retest of the Bullish/bearish volatility lines without closing above/below these lines
Wait for a reaction with body close candle (a candle that remains green/red is significantly more reliable)
Confirm that the reaction candle's body closes below/above all indicator lines
Enter after this precise volatility band test and reaction sequence.
Bearish example
Bullish Example
NO ENTRY EXAMPLE
Volatility Band Mean Reversion
Identify when price is near or beyond volatility bands
Look for reversal candlestick patterns or divergence
Enter when price begins moving back toward momentum lines
Exit when price reaches the opposite volatility band or momentum line
Post-Breakout Continuation
After price crosses all indicator lines, wait for a pullback
Enter when price retests but respects any indicator line as support/resistance
Confirm with multi-factor alignment (3-4 strength) in the breakout direction
Trail stops behind retested indicator lines as trade progresses
Tick Optimization Strategy
Start with default tick separation (1.0)
For ranging markets: Increase tick separation (2.0-3.0) to reduce false signals
For trending markets: Decrease tick separation (0.5-0.8) for earlier entries
Fine-tune tick values for each specific instrument based on its volatility profile
