Price Action Volumetric Breaker Blocks [UAlgo]The Price Action Volumetric Breaker Blocks indicator is designed to identify and visualize significant price levels in the market. It combines concepts of price action, volume analysis, and market structure to provide traders with a comprehensive view of potential support and resistance areas. This indicator identifies "breaker blocks," which are price zones where the market has shown significant interest in the past.
These blocks are created based on swing highs and lows, and are further analyzed using volume data to determine their strength. The indicator also tracks market structure shifts, providing additional context to price movements.
By visualizing these key levels and market structure changes, traders can gain insights into potential areas of price reversal or continuation, helping them make more informed trading decisions.
🔶 Key Features
Dynamic Breaker Block Identification: The indicator automatically detects and draws breaker blocks based on swing highs and lows. These blocks represent areas of potential support and resistance.
Volume-Weighted Strength Analysis: Each breaker block is analyzed using volume data to determine its bullish and bearish strength. This is visually represented by the proportion of green (bullish) and red (bearish) coloring within each block.
Market Structure Break (MSB) and Break of Structure (BOS): The indicator identifies and labels Market Structure Breaks (MSB) and Break of Structure (BOS) events, providing context to larger market trends.
Customizable Settings:
- Adjustable swing length for identifying pivot points
- Option to show a specific number of recent breaker blocks
- Choice between wick or close price for violation checks
- Toggle to hide overlapping blocks for cleaner analysis
Violation Detection: Automatically detects when a breaker block has been violated (broken through), either by wick or close price, depending on user settings.
Overlap Control: Provides an option to hide overlapping order blocks, ensuring that the chart remains clean and easy to read when multiple blocks are detected in close proximity.
🔶 Interpreting Indicator
Breaker Blocks:
Breaker blocks are key areas where the price moves through and invalidates a previously identified order block. The indicator detects a breaker block when the price violates an order block by exceeding its high or low (depending on whether it's a bullish or bearish block). This violation is determined by either the wick or the close of a candle, depending on the user's selection in the "Violation Check" setting. When a breaker block is detected, the indicator removes the violated order block from the chart, signaling that the zone is no longer relevant for future price action.
Bullish Breaker Block: This occurs when a bearish order block (red) is violated by the price closing above the block’s top boundary or when the wick surpasses this level. It signals that a prior bearish structure has been invalidated, and the market may shift to a bullish trend.
Bearish Breaker Block: This occurs when a bullish order block (teal) is violated by the price closing below the block’s bottom boundary or when the wick drops below it. It suggests that a previous bullish structure has been broken, indicating potential bearish momentum.
Market Structure Labels:
"MSB" (Market Structure Break) labels indicate a potential change in trend direction.
"BOS" (Break of Structure) labels confirm the continuation of the current trend after breaking a significant level.
Block Strength:
A block with more green indicates stronger bullish interest.
A block with more red indicates stronger bearish interest.
The relative sizes of the green and red portions show the balance of power between buyers and sellers at that level.

🚀 How to Use:
✨ Add the Indicator: Add the indicator to favorites by pressing the star icon, adjust the settings to suite your needs.
👀 Monitor Signals: Watch for the automatic plotting of divergences and reversal signals to identify potential market entries and exits.
🔔 Set Alerts: Configure alerts to get notified of key changes without constantly monitoring the charts.
🔍 How It Works:
The Standardized PSAR Oscillator is an advanced trading tool that refines the traditional PSAR (Parabolic Stop and Reverse) indicator by incorporating several key enhancements to improve trend analysis and signal accuracy. The script begins by calculating the PSAR, a widely used indicator known for its effectiveness in identifying trend reversals. To make the PSAR more adaptive and responsive to market conditions, it is standardized using an Exponential Moving Average (EMA) of the high-low range over a user-defined period. This standardization helps to normalize the PSAR values, making them more comparable across different market conditions.
To further enhance signal clarity, the standardized PSAR is then smoothed using a Weighted Moving Average (WMA). This combination of EMA and WMA creates an oscillator that not only captures trend direction but also smooths out market noise, providing a cleaner signal. The oscillator's values are color-coded to visually indicate its position relative to the zero line, with additional emphasis on whether the WMA is rising or falling—this helps traders quickly interpret the trend’s strength and direction.
The oscillator also includes built-in divergence detection by comparing pivot points in price action with those in the oscillator. This feature helps identify potential discrepancies between the price and the oscillator, signaling possible trend reversals. Alerts can be configured for when the oscillator crosses the zero line or when a trend shows signs of weakening, ensuring that traders receive timely notifications to act on emerging opportunities. These combined elements make the Standardized PSAR Oscillator a robust tool for enhancing your trading strategy with more reliable and actionable signals
ICT Turtle Soup | Flux Charts💎 GENERAL OVERVIEW
Introducing our new ICT Turtle Soup Indicator! This indicator is built around the ICT "Turtle Soup" model. The strategy has 5 steps for execution which are described in this write-up. For more information about the process, check the "HOW DOES IT WORK" section.
Features of the new ICT Turtle Soup Indicator :
Implementation of ICT's Turtle Soup Strategy
Adaptive Entry Method
Customizable Execution Settings
Customizable Backtesting Dashboard
Alerts for Buy, Sell, TP & SL Signals
📌 HOW DOES IT WORK ?
The ICT Turtle Soup strategy may have different implementations depending on the selected method of the trader. This indicator's implementation is described as :
1. Mark higher timerame liquidity zones.
Liquidity zones are where a lot of market orders sit in the chart. They are usually formed from the long / short position holders' "liquidity" levels. There are various ways to find them, most common one being drawing them on the latest high & low pivot points in the chart, which this indicator does.
2. Mark current timeframe market structure.
The market structure is the current flow of the market. It tells you if the market is trending right now, and the way it's trending towards. It's formed from swing higs, swing lows and support / resistance levels.
3. Wait for market to make a liquidity grab on the higher timeframe liquidity zone.
A liquidity grab is when the marked liquidity zones have a false breakout, which means that it gets broken for a brief amount of time, but then price falls back to it's previous position.
4. Buyside liquidity grabs are "Short" entries and Sellside liquidity grabs are "Long" entries by default.
5. Wait for the market-structure shift in the current timeframe for entry confirmation.
A market-structure shift happens when the current market structure changes, usually when a new swing high / swing low is formed. This indicator uses it as a confirmation for position entry as it gives an insight of the new trend of the market.
6. Place Take-Profit and Stop-Loss levels according to the risk ratio.
This indicator uses "Average True Range" when placing the stop-loss & take-profit levels. Average True Range calculates the average size of a candle and the indicator places the stop-loss level using ATR times the risk setting determined by the user, then places the take-profit level trying to keep a minimum of 1:1 risk-reward ratio.
This indicator follows these steps and inform you step by step by plotting them in your chart.
🚩UNIQUENESS
This indicator is an all-in-one suit for the ICT's Turtle Soup concept. It's capable of plotting the strategy, giving signals, a backtesting dashboard and alerts feature. It's designed for simplyfing a rather complex strategy, helping you to execute it with clean signals. The backtesting dashboard allows you to see how your settings perform in the current ticker. You can also set up alerts to get informed when the strategy is executable for different tickers.
⚙️SETTINGS
1. General Configuration
MSS Swing Length -> The swing length when finding liquidity zones for market structure-shift detection.
Higher Timeframe -> The higher timeframe to look for liquidity grabs. This timeframe setting must be higher than the current chart's timeframe for the indicator to work.
Breakout Method -> If "Wick" is selected, a bar wick will be enough to confirm a market structure-shift. If "Close" is selected, the bar must close above / below the liquidity zone to confirm a market structure-shift.
Entry Method ->
"Classic" : Works as described on the "HOW DOES IT WORK" section.
"Adaptive" : When "Adaptive" is selected, the entry conditions may chance depending on the current performance of the indicator. It saves the entry conditions and the performance of the past entries, then for the new entries it checks if it predicted the liquidity grabs correctly with the current setup, if so, continues with the same logic. If not, it changes behaviour to reverse the entries from long / short to short / long.
2. TP / SL
TP / SL Method -> If "Fixed" is selected, you can adjust the TP / SL ratios from the settings below. If "Dynamic" is selected, the TP / SL zones will be auto-determined by the algorithm.
Risk -> The risk you're willing to take if "Dynamic" TP / SL Method is selected. Higher risk usually means a better winrate at the cost of losing more if the strategy fails. This setting is has a crucial effect on the performance of the indicator, as different tickers may have different volatility so the indicator may have increased performance when this setting is correctly adjusted.

Tweet/X Post Timestamp - By LeviathanThis script allows you to generate visual timestamps of X/Twitter posts directly on your chart, highlighting the precise moment an X post/tweet was made. All you have to do is copy and paste the post URL.
◽️ Use Cases:
- News Trading: Traders can use this indicator to visually align market price actions with news or announcements made on X (formerly Twitter), aiding in the analysis of news impact on market volatility.
- Behavioral Analysis: Traders studying the influence of social media on price can use the timestamps to track correlations between specific posts and market reactions.
- Proof of Predictions: Traders can use this indicator to timestamp their market forecasts shared on X (formerly Twitter), providing a visual record of their predictions relative to actual market movements. This feature allows for transparent verification of the timing and accuracy of their analyses
◽️ Process of Timestamp Calculation
The calculation of the timestamp from a tweet ID involves the following steps:
Extracting the Post ID:
The script first parses the input URL provided by the user to extract the unique ID of the tweet or X post. This ID is embedded in the URL and is crucial for determining the exact posting time.
Calculating the Timestamp:
The post ID undergoes a mathematical transformation known as a right shift by 22 bits. This operation aligns the ID's timestamp to a base reference time used by the platform.
Adding Base Offset:
The result from the right shift is then added to a base offset timestamp (1288834974657 ms, the epoch used by Twitter/X). This converts the processed ID into a UNIX timestamp reflecting the exact moment the post was made.
Date-Time Conversion:
The UNIX timestamp is further broken down into conventional date and time components (year, month, day, hour, minute, second) using calculations that account for leap years and varying days per month.
Label Placement:
Based on user settings, labels displaying the timestamp, username, and other optional information such as price changes or pivot points are dynamically placed on the chart at the bar corresponding to the timestamp.
Trend Lines with Break Signals [UAlgo]🔶 Description:
The "Trend Lines with Breaks " indicator is designed to identify and visualize trend lines on a price chart, allowing traders to observe potential trend reversals or continuations. This script implements a method to draw trend lines based on pivot points (highs and lows) within a specified sensitivity range. It also provides an option to display breaks in these trend lines, aiding traders in recognizing significant market movements.
🔶 Key Features:
Trend Line Sensitivity Adjustment: Users can adjust the sensitivity of the trend lines using the "Trend Line Sensitivity" parameter, allowing customization based on market conditions and preferences.
Visualization of Trend Lines: The indicator visually represents trend lines on the chart, distinguishing between upward and downward trends. Users can customize the appearance of these trend lines, including color, style, and width.
Detection of Trend Line Breaks: Trend line breaks are identified by comparing the current price with the slope of the trend line. If the price breaks below (for bullish trend lines) or above (for bearish trend lines) the slope of the trend line, indicating a potential reversal, a "B" label is displayed on the chart. Trend line breaks are only displayed if the "showBreaks" parameter is enabled.
Before Bearish Trend Line Break :
If the price "Close" value closes above the trend line :
Before Bullish Trend Line Break :
If the price "Close" value closes below the trend line :

OHT Harmonic LevelsHarmonic Level plotter I've been talking about on the discord - right now a lot of this is manual and some day maybe we can get it to be automatic across different time frames but that is probably far off in the future.
For now, you need to probably create a new tab/layout for each instrument you add this to. It will then ask for the long start price and short start price. I would like to leave this how it is as I don't like using the top of pivot points, its lazy and you don't learn to go find the current trend.
The levels have an area around them equal to 10% of the rotation size, so if NQ has a rotation size of 60, there is a 6pt area around the actual level to either size to account for rotation average changes.
Heikin Ashi and Optimized Trend Tracker and PVSRA [Erebor]Heikin Ashi Candles
Let's consider a modification to the traditional “Heikin Ashi Candles” where we introduce a new parameter: the period of calculation. The traditional HA candles are derived from the open , high low , and close prices of the underlying asset.
Now, let's introduce a new parameter, period, which will determine how many periods are considered in the calculation of the HA candles. This period parameter will affect the smoothing and responsiveness of the resulting candles.
In this modification, instead of considering just the current period, we're averaging or aggregating the prices over a specified number of periods . This will result in candles that reflect a longer-term trend or sentiment, depending on the chosen period value.
For example, if period is set to 1, it would essentially be the same as traditional Heikin Ashi candles. However, if period is set to a higher value, say 5, each candle will represent the average price movement over the last 5 periods, providing a smoother representation of the trend but potentially with delayed signals compared to lower period values.
Traders can adjust the period parameter based on their trading style, the timeframe they're analyzing, and the level of smoothing or responsiveness they prefer in their candlestick patterns.
Optimized Trend Tracker
The "Optimized Trend Tracker" is a proprietary trading indicator developed by TradingView user ANIL ÖZEKŞİ. It is designed to identify and track trends in financial markets efficiently. The indicator attempts to smooth out price fluctuations and provide clear signals for trend direction.
The Optimized Trend Tracker uses a combination of moving averages and adaptive filters to detect trends. It aims to reduce lag and noise typically associated with traditional moving averages, thereby providing more timely and accurate signals.
Some of the key features and applications of the OTT include:
• Trend Identification: The indicator helps traders identify the direction of the prevailing trend in a market. It distinguishes between uptrends, downtrends, and sideways consolidations.
• Entry and Exit Signals: The OTT generates buy and sell signals based on crossovers and direction changes of the trend. Traders can use these signals to time their entries and exits in the market.
• Trend Strength: It also provides insights into the strength of the trend by analyzing the slope and momentum of price movements. This information can help traders assess the conviction behind the trend and adjust their trading strategies accordingly.
• Filter Noise: By employing adaptive filters, the indicator aims to filter out market noise and false signals, thereby enhancing the reliability of trend identification.
• Customization: Traders can customize the parameters of the OTT to suit their specific trading preferences and market conditions. This flexibility allows for adaptation to different timeframes and asset classes.
Overall, the OTT can be a valuable tool for traders seeking to capitalize on trending market conditions while minimizing false signals and noise. However, like any trading indicator, it is essential to combine its signals with other forms of analysis and risk management strategies for optimal results. Additionally, traders should thoroughly back-test the indicator and practice using it in a demo environment before applying it to live trading.
PVSRA (Price, Volume, S&R Analysis)
“PVSRA” (Price, Volume, S&R Analysis) is a trading methodology and indicator that combines the analysis of price action, volume, and support/resistance levels to identify potential trading opportunities in financial markets. It is based on the idea that price movements are influenced by the interplay between supply and demand, and analyzing these factors together can provide valuable insights into market dynamics.
Here's a breakdown of the components of PVSRA:
• Price Action Analysis: PVSRA focuses on analyzing price movements and patterns on price charts, such as candlestick patterns, trendlines, chart patterns (like head and shoulders, triangles, etc.), and other price-based indicators. Traders using PVSRA pay close attention to how price behaves at key support and resistance levels and look for patterns that indicate potential shifts in market sentiment.
• Volume Analysis: Volume is an essential component of PVSRA. Traders monitor changes in trading volume to gauge the strength or weakness of price movements. An increase in volume during a price move suggests strong participation and conviction from market participants, reinforcing the validity of the price action. Conversely, low volume during price moves may indicate lack of conviction and potential reversals.
• Support and Resistance (S&R) Analysis: PVSRA incorporates the identification and analysis of support and resistance levels on price charts. Support levels represent areas where buying interest is expected to be strong enough to prevent further price declines, while resistance levels represent areas where selling interest may prevent further price advances. These levels are often identified using historical price data, trendlines, moving averages, pivot points, and other technical analysis tools.
The PVSRA methodology combines these three elements to generate trading signals and make trading decisions. Traders using PVSRA typically look for confluence between price action, volume, and support/resistance levels to confirm trade entries and exits. For example, a bullish reversal signal may be considered stronger if it occurs at a significant support level with increasing volume.
It's important to note that PVSRA is more of a trading approach or methodology rather than a specific indicator with predefined rules. Traders may customize their analysis based on their preferences and trading style, incorporating additional technical indicators or filters as needed. As with any trading strategy, risk management and proper trade execution are essential components of successful trading with PVSRA.
The following types of moving average have been included: "SMA", "EMA", "SMMA (RMA)", "WMA", "VWMA", "HMA", "KAMA", "LSMA", "TRAMA", "VAR", "DEMA", "ZLEMA", "TSF", "WWMA". Thanks to the authors.

ATR Divergences [UAlgo]Divergence is a concept in financial markets that highlights inconsistencies between the price of an asset and a given indicator. This script focuses on identifying divergences using the Average True Range (ATR). Divergence occurs when there is a disparity between the direction of the price and the oscillator, providing valuable insights for traders anticipating potential trend reversals.
This script employs pivot points (with using High-Low values of the candles) to identify potential divergences between the oscillator (ATR) and price movements. Here's how each type of divergence is determined:
Key Features:
Regular Bullish Divergence:
Oscillator registers a higher low.
Price records a lower low.
Indicative of potential upward reversal.
Hidden Bullish Divergence:
Oscillator indicates a lower low.
Price exhibits a higher low.
Signals a concealed bullish continuation pattern.
Regular Bearish Divergence:
Oscillator shows a lower high.
Price marks a higher high.
Suggests a possible downward reversal.
Hidden Bearish Divergence:
Oscillator reflects a higher high.
Price displays a lower high.
Indicates a hidden bearish continuation pattern.
Usage and Customization:
ATR Length: Adjustable parameter for customizing the Average True Range calculation period.
Plot Options: Choose to display Regular Bullish, Hidden Bullish, Regular Bearish, and/or Hidden Bearish divergences.
Wait for Candle Close: Option to wait for candle closure before plotting signals.
How to Interpret:
Regular divergences may indicate potential trend reversals, while hidden divergences suggest a continuation of the current trend. Traders can leverage these signals to make informed decisions in their trading strategies.
Feel free to customize the parameters based on your trading preferences. Happy Trading!

Machine Learning: Support and Resistance [YinYangAlgorithms]Overview:
Support and Resistance is normally based upon Pivot Points and Highest Highs and Lowest Lows. Many times coders even incorporate Volume, RSI and other factors into the equation. However there may be a downside to doing a pure technical approach based on historical levels. We live in a time where Machine Learning is becoming more and more used; thus we have decided to create a Machine Learning Support and Resistance Projection based Indicator. Rather than using traditional Support and Resistance calculations using historical data, we have taken a rather different approach. This Indicator instead attempts to Predict and Project where Support and Resistance locations will be based on a Machine Learning Model using a form of KNN (k-Nearest Neighbors).
Since this indicator creates a Projection of where it deems Support and Resistance will be, it has the ability to move its Support and Resistance before the price even gets to it if it believes it will surpass its projections. This may create a more accurate placement of Support and Resistance as they’re not based on historical levels.
This Indicator does not Repaint.
How it works:
This Indicator makes its projections based on the source you provide (by default close) of the previous bar and submits the source, RSI and EMA to our Projection Function to get its projection of the current bar.
The Projection function essentially calculates potential movement after finding the differences between the source the MA from the current bar, previous bar and average over the span of Machine Learning Length.
Potential movement is defined as:
Average Difference + Average(Machine Learning Average, Average Last Distance)
Average Difference: (Absolute value of Current Source - Current MA) - (Absolute value of Machine Learning Average - Machine Learning MA)
Average Last Distance: Average(Current Source - Current MA, Previous Source - Previous MA)
It then predicts the next bars directional movement (bullish or bearish bar) using several factors:
Previous Source > Previous MA
Current Source - Current MA > Average Source - Average MA
Current RSI > Previous RSI
Current RSI > 30 and Previous RSI <= 30
Current RSI < 70 and Previous RSI >= 70
This helps us to predict the direction the next bar may move.
We then calculate a multiplier that we apply to our Potential Movement value to get our final result which is our Current Bars Close Projection.
Our multiplier is calculated using:
(Current RSI > 30 and Previous RSI <= 30) OR (Current RSI < 70 and Previous RSI >= 70)
Current Source - Current MA > Previous Source - Previous MA
We then create an array and fill it with the previous X projections (Machine Learning Length) and send it to another function. This function, if told to, will sort the data accordingly and then output the KNN average of the length given.
We calculate and plot various KNN lengths to create different Zones:
Strong Support: Length of 2 but sort the data Ascending (low to high)
Strong Resistance: Length of 2 but sort the data Descending (high to low)
Support: Length of Machine Length Length / 10 or Min of 2 sorted by Ascending
Resistance: Length of Machine Length Length / 10 or Min of 2 sorted by Descending
There are also 4 other plots you may be wondering what they are, there is your AVG, VWMA, Long Term Memory and Current Projection.
By default your Current Projection is disabled in settings but you can enable it if you are curious to see how the projections for each close are calculated. It is, however, not a crucial point of interest (white line).
The average is simply the average value of the Machine Learning Data (purple line).
The VWMA is a VWMA calculation applied to our Data over a length specified in settings (by default 1)(blue line). The VWMA is crucial when combined with the Avg as they can cross over and under each other. These crosses represent potential Bullish and Bearish zones.
Lastly, but certainly not least, we have the Long Term Memory (maroon line). The Long Term Memory can be displayed either as an ‘Average’, ‘Hard Line’ or ‘None’. The Long Term Average is only updated every Machine Learning Length Bar Index’s and is populated with the average of the Machine Learning Data. For Instance, if Machine Learning Length is set to 100, the Long Term Memory is only updated every 100 bars, and since its length is the same as the Machine Learning Length, that means its data is composed of 10,000 bars worth of data. The Long Term Memory may be very beneficial for determining where Support and Resistance lie over the Long Term within a Machine Learning Algorithm. When set to ‘Average’ it plots the connection lines diagonally, and although they may be more visually appealing, they’re less useful when it comes to actually seeing support and resistance as generally speaking, support and resistance lie on the horizontal. When set to ‘Hard Line’ the Long Term Memory is connected with hard lines and holds the price value until the next time it is updated. This makes it much more useful for potentially identifying Support and Resistance.
Tutorial:
Here is an overview of what the Indicator looks like, now let's start to dissect it.
In the example above we can see how all of the lines between the Major Support and Resistance zones may act as BOTH Support and Resistance depending on which side the price is currently on. In the circle on the left, we can see how it can fluctuate between the two. If you look at the circle on the right, we can see how the Average line acts as a strong support before it fails to maintain it. Generally speaking, most Support and Resistance locations may potentially fail to hold after 3 tests, as the Average did in this example.
As you can see, the Support and Resistance doesn’t wait to be tested before adjusting, which is why there are 2 lines which create their zones. The inner line is the Support/Resistance and the outer line is the Strong Support/Resistance. The Yellow Circle shows the inner line was able to calculate the moving resistance correctly and then adjusted accordingly as it was projecting the price to keep increasing. However, if you look at the White Circle, you can see that since there was first a crash, and then parabolic movement, that the inner zone could not move and predict the resistance as well as the outer zone could.
We consider the price to be ‘Overvalued’ when it is above the VWMA (blue line) and ‘Undervalued’ when it is below the VWMA. It is considered ‘fair’ price when it is within the VWMA to Average zone (between the blue and purple lines). If you look at the example above, you’ll notice where the two yellow circles are, it is not only considered ‘Overvalued’, but it then proceeds to ride the inner resistance line upwards. This is common when the market is overly bullish and vice versa when it is bearish. Please keep in mind, although it is common, it doesn’t mean a correction can’t happen.
In this example above we look at the last bull run that may have started due to the halving. This bull run was very bullish as you can see in the example above. The price was constantly sitting within the Resistance Zone and the VWMA that was very close to it was constantly acting as a Support. Naturally, due to the Algorithm used in this Indicator, as the momentum starts to slow down, the VWMA (blue line) will start to space out more and more from the Resistance Zone. This doesn’t mean the momentum is gone, it just means it may be slowing down.
Unfortunately we have to study the Bear Market with a different perspective than the Bull Market. However, there are still some similarities within the two. If you refer to the example above and the previous example, you can clearly see that the Bull Market loves to stay with the Resistance Zone and use the VWMA as a Support. However, the Bear Market does not. This is a normal occurrence, however we can see from the example above you may see a correction / horizontal movement when the Outer Support Line is touched. If you look at all 3 yellow circles, the Outer Support Line was touched, then either a small correction or horizontal consolidation occurred.
We will conclude our Tutorial here, hopefully you’ll be able to benefit from a moving Support and Resistance calculated with Machine Learning that projects its locations, rather than using traditional calculations.
Settings:
Source: This source is the base for all our calculations
Machine Learning Length: How much projection data are we storing and using to make calculations.
Smoothing Length: We need to smooth calculations such as RSI, EMA and VWMA. What length are we smoothing it with?
VWMA ML Projection Length: How far into our Machine Learning data should we average for our VWMA. Please note the 'Smoothing Length' is still applied here after getting the Projection Average.
Long Term Memory: Long term memory has the same storage length but is only updated once per Machine Learning Length. For instance, if Machine Learning Length is 100, it will save the Average of our data once every 100 bars. This means its memory is an average of 10,000 bars of Machine Learning. 'Average' connects its values diagonally whereas 'Hard Line' holds its value until it changes.
Use Average Last Distance In Potential Movement: This can help accuracy but generally also displaces the Support and Resistance by projecting it further.
Show Current Projection: Projections occur for each bar, and our Machine Learning utilizes these projections by storing and evaluating them. This toggle will display the Current Projection Line which is used to create all our Projections.
If you have any questions, comments, ideas or concerns please don't hesitate to contact us.

Auto-Length Adaptive ChannelsIntroduction
The key innovation of the ALAC is the implementation of dynamic length identification, which allows the indicator to adjust to the "market beat" or dominant cycle in real-time.
The Auto-Length Adaptive Channels (ALAC) is a flexible technical analysis tool that combines the benefits of five different approaches to market band and price deviation calculations.
Traders often tend to overthink of what length their indicators should use, and this is the main idea behind this script. It automatically calculates length based on pivot points, averaging the distance that is in between of current market highs and lows.
This approach is very helpful to identify market deviations, because deviations are always calculated and compared to previous market behavior.
How it works
The indicator uses a Detrended Rhythm Oscillator (DRO) to identify the dominant cycle in the market. This length information is then used to calculate different market bands and price deviations. The ALAC combines five different methodologies to compute these bands:
1 - Bollinger Bands
2 - Keltner Channels
3 - Envelope
4 - Average True Range Channels
5 - Donchian Channels
By averaging these calculations, the ALAC produces an overall market band that generalizes the approaches of these five methods into a single, adaptive channel.
How to Use
When the price is at the upper band, this might suggest that the asset is overbought and may be due for a price correction. Conversely, when the price is at the lower band, the asset may be oversold and due for a price increase.
The space between the bands represents the market's volatility. Wider bands indicate higher volatility, while narrower bands suggest lower volatility.
Indicator Settings
The settings of the ALAC allow for customization to suit different trading strategies:
Use Autolength?: This allows the indicator to automatically adjust the length of the dominant cycle.
Usual Length: If "Use Autolength?" is disabled, this setting allows the user to manually specify the length of the cycle.
Moving Average Type: This selects the type of moving average to be used in the calculations. Options include SMA, EMA, ALMA, DEMA, JMA, KAMA, SMMA, TMA, TSF, VMA, VAMA, VWMA, WMA, and ZLEMA.
Channel Multiplier: This adjusts the distance between the bands.
Channel Multiplier Step: This changes the step size of the channel multiplier. Each next market band will be multiplied by a previous one. You can potentially use values below 1, which will plot bands inside the first, main channel.
Use DPO instead of source data?: This setting uses the DPO for calculations instead of the source data. Basically, this is how you can add or eliminate trend from calculation of an average leg-up / leg-down move.
Fast: This adjusts the fast length of the DPO.
Slow: This adjusts the slow length of the DPO.
Zig-zag Period: This adjusts the period of the zig-zag pattern used in the DPO.
(!) For more information about DPO visit official TradingView description here: link
Also, I want to say thanks to @StockMarketCycles for initial idea of Detrended Rhythm Oscillator (DRO) that I use in this script.
The Adaptive Average Channel is a powerful and versatile indicator that combines the strengths of multiple technical analysis methods.
In summary, with the ALAC, you can:
1 - Dynamically adapt to any asset and price action with automatic calculation of dominant cycle lengths.
2 - Identify potential overbought and oversold conditions with the adaptive market bands.
3 - Customize your analysis with various settings, including moving average type and channel multiplier.
4 - Enhance your trading strategy by using the indicator in conjunction with other forms of analysis.
Gradient Money Flow Divergence DetectorThe "Gradient Money Flow Divergence Detector" indicator has several use cases for traders. Let's explore the main use cases:
1. Money Flow Analysis : The primary purpose of this indicator is to analyze money flow in a particular asset. The Money Flow Index (MFI) is a momentum indicator that uses price and volume data to assess the buying and selling pressure in a market. Traders can use the MFI to identify overbought and oversold conditions, potential trend reversals, and divergences between the MFI and price movement.
2. Divergence Detection : The indicator incorporates a divergence detection mechanism for multiple timeframes (micro, sub-mid, mid, and macro). Divergence occurs when the price movement and an indicator (MFI in this case) move in opposite directions, signaling a potential shift in the price trend. Traders can use divergences to anticipate trend reversals or trend continuation.
3. Multiple Lookback Analysis : The indicator allows traders to assess divergences and money flow trends across various time horizons by providing divergence detection for different lengths. This can help traders identify confluence areas where divergences align on multiple timeframes, strengthening the potential signal.
4. Overbought and Oversold Conditions : The indicator plots horizontal lines at MFI levels of 20, 50, and 80. These levels can be used to identify overbought (MFI above 80) and oversold (MFI below 20) conditions. Traders may look for potential reversal signals when the MFI reaches extreme levels.
5. Confirmation of Price Trends : The indicator's color gradient visually represents the MFI value, which can help traders confirm the strength of a prevailing price trend. For example, an uptrend with a consistently high MFI might suggest strong buying pressure, reinforcing the bullish bias.
6. Fine-Tuning Divergence Signals : Traders can adjust the parameters of divergence detection (e.g., pivot points, rangeUpper, rangeLower) to fine-tune the sensitivity of the divergence signals. This allows for greater customization based on individual trading preferences.
7. Combining with Other Indicators : The indicator can be used in combination with other technical indicators or price action analysis to strengthen trading decisions. For example, traders may look for divergences in conjunction with support and resistance levels or chart patterns to increase the probability of successful trades.
8. Trend Reversal Confirmation : When a divergence is detected, it may indicate a potential trend reversal. Traders can use other confirmation signals (e.g., candlestick patterns, trendline breaks) to validate the reversal before making trading decisions.
Remember that no single indicator should be used in isolation, and it's essential to use the indicator in combination with other confirmations such as support and resistance, and analysis methods for more robust trading strategies. Additionally, thorough backtesting and practice in a demo environment are recommended before using the indicator in live trading.
Stochastic Zone Strength Trend [wbburgin](This script was originally invite-only, but I'd vastly prefer contributing to the TradingView community more than anything else, so I am making it public :) I'd much rather share my ideas with you all.)
The Stochastic Zone Strength Trend indicator is a very powerful momentum and trend indicator that 1) identifies trend direction and strength, 2) determines pullbacks and reversals (including oversold and overbought conditions), 3) identifies divergences, and 4) can filter out ranges. I have some examples below on how to use it to its full effectiveness. It is composed of two components: Stochastic Zone Strength and Stochastic Trend Strength.
Stochastic Zone Strength
At its most basic level, the stochastic Zone Strength plots the momentum of the price action of the instrument, and identifies bearish and bullish changes with a high degree of accuracy. Think of the stochastic Zone Strength as a much more robust equivalent of the RSI. Momentum-change thresholds are demonstrated by the "20" and "80" levels on the indicator (see below image).
Stochastic Trend Strength
The stochastic Trend Strength component of the script uses resistance in each candlestick to calculate the trend strength of the instrument. I'll go more into detail about the settings after my description of how to use the indicator, but there are two forms of the stochastic Trend Strength:
Anchored at 50 (directional stochastic Trend Strength):
The directional stochastic Trend Strength can be used similarly to the MACD difference or other histogram-like indicators : a rising plot indicates an upward trend, while a falling plot indicates a downward trend.
Anchored at 0 (nondirectional stochastic Trend Strength):
The nondirectional stochastic Trend Strength can be used similarly to the ADX or other non-directional indicators : a rising plot indicates increasing trend strength, and look at the stochastic Zone Strength component and your instrument to determine if this indicates increasing bullish strength or increasing bearish strength (see photo below):
(In the above photo, a bearish divergence indicated that the high Trend Strength predicted a strong downwards move, which was confirmed shortly after. Later, a bullish move upward by the Zone Strength while the Trend Strength was elevated predicated a strong upwards move, which was also confirmed. Note the period where the Trend Strength never reached above 80, which indicated a ranging period (and thus unprofitable to enter or exit)).
How to Use the Indicator
The above image is a good example on how to use the indicator to determine divergences and possible pivot points (lines and circles, respectively). I recommend using both the stochastic Zone Strength and the stochastic Trend Strength at the same time, as it can give you a robust picture of where momentum is in relation to the price action and its trajectory. Every color is changeable in the settings.
Settings
The Amplitude of the indicator is essentially the high-low lookback for both components.
The Wavelength of the indicator is how stretched-out you want the indicator to be: how many amplitudes do you want the indicator to process in one given bar.
A useful analogy that I use (and that I derived the names from) is from traditional physics. In wave motion, the Amplitude is the up-down sensitivity of the wave, and the Wavelength is the side-side stretch of the wave.
The Smoothing Factor of the settings is simply how smoothed you want the stochastic to be. It's not that important in most circumstances.
Trend Anchor was covered above (see my description of Trend Strength). The "Trend Transform MA Length" is the EMA length of the Trend Strength that you use to transform it into the directional oscillator. Think of the EMA being transformed onto the 50 line and then the Trend Strength being dragged relative to that.
Trend Transform MA Length is the EMA length you want to use for transforming the nondirectional Trend Strength (anchored at 0) into the directional Trend Strength (anchored at 50). I suggest this be the same as the wavelength.
Trend Plot Type can transform the Nondirectional Trend Strength into a line plot so that it doesn't murk up the background.
Finally, the colors are changeable on the bottom.
Explanation of Zone Strength
If you're knowledgeable in Pine Script, I encourage you to look at the code to try to understand the concept, as it's a little complicated. The theory behind my Zone Strength concept is that the wicks in every bar can be used create an index of bullish and bearish resistance, as a wick signifies that the price crossed above a threshold before returning to its origin. This distance metric is unique because most indicators/formulas for calculating relative strength use a displacement metric (such as close - open) instead of measuring how far the price actually moved (up and down) within a candlestick. This is what the Zone Strength concept represents - the hesitation within the bar that is not typically represented in typical momentum indicators.
In the script's code I have step by step explanations of how the formula is calculated and why it is calculated as such. I encourage you to play around with the amplitude and wavelength inputs as they can make the zone strength look very different and perform differently depending on your interests.
Enjoy!
Walker
