Smart Money Proxy IndexOverview
The Smart Money Proxy Index (SMPI) is an educational tool that attempts to identify potential institutional-style behavior patterns using publicly available market data. This comprehensive tool combines multiple institutional analysis techniques into a single, easy-to-read 0-100 oscillator.
Important Disclaimer
This is an educational proxy indicator that analyzes volume and price patterns. It cannot identify actual institutional trading activity and should not be interpreted as tracking real "smart money." Use for educational purposes and combine with other analysis methods.
Inspiration & Methodology
This indicator is inspired by MAPsignals' Big Money Index (BMI) methodology but uses publicly available price and volume data with original calculations. This is an independent educational interpretation designed to teach smart money concepts to retail traders.
What It Analyzes
SMPI tracks potential "smart money" activity by combining:
Block Trading Detection - Identifies unusual volume surges with significant price impact
Money Flow Analysis - Volume-weighted price pressure using Money Flow Index
Accumulation/Distribution Patterns - Modified On-Balance Volume signals
Institutional Control Proxy - End-of-day positioning and control analysis
Key Features
– Multi-Component Analysis - Combines 4 different institutional detection methods
– BMI-Style 0-100 Scale - Familiar oscillator range with clear extreme levels
– Professional Visualization - Dynamic colors, gradient fills, and clean data table
– Comprehensive Alerts - Buy/sell signals plus divergence detection
– Fully Customizable - Adjust all parameters, colors, and display options
– Non-Repainting Signals - All alerts use confirmed data for reliability
– Educational Focus - Designed to teach institutional flow concepts
How to Interpret
Above 80: Potential smart money distribution phase (bearish pressure)
Below 20: Potential smart money accumulation phase (bullish opportunity)
Signal Generation: Buy signals when crossing above 20, sell signals when crossing below 80
Divergences: Price vs SMPI divergences can signal potential trend changes
Volume Confirmation: Higher volume ratios strengthen signal reliability
Best Practices
Timeframes: Works best on higher timeframes for institutional behavior analysis
Confirmation: Combine with other technical analysis tools and market context
Volume: Pay attention to volume confirmation in the data table
Context: Consider overall market conditions and fundamental factors
Risk Management: Not recommended as standalone trading system
Customizable Parameters
Block Volume Threshold: Sensitivity for unusual volume detection (default: 2.5x average)
SMPI Smoothing Period: Index calculation smoothing (default: 25 bars)
Extreme Levels: Overbought/oversold thresholds (default: 80/20)
Money Flow Length: MFI calculation period (default: 14)
Visual Options: Colors, signals, and display preferences
Available Alerts
Buy Signal: SMPI crosses above oversold level (20)
Sell Signal: SMPI crosses below overbought level (80)
Extreme Levels: Alerts when reaching overbought/oversold zones
Divergence Detection: Bullish and bearish price vs SMPI divergences
Educational Purpose & Limitations
This indicator is designed as an educational proxy for understanding institutional flow concepts. It analyzes publicly available price and volume data to identify potential smart money behavior patterns.
Cannot access actual institutional transaction data
Signals may be slower than day-trading indicators (intentionally designed for institutional timeframes)
Should be used in conjunction with other analysis methods
Past performance does not guarantee future results
What Makes This Different
Unlike simple volume or momentum indicators, SMPI combines multiple institutional analysis techniques into one comprehensive tool. The multi-component approach provides a more robust view of potential smart money activity.

### Introducing the Full Session ATR Range (Live) Indicator with Position Toggle
Enhance your trading strategy with the **Full Session ATR Range (Live) Indicator**, a powerful tool designed to provide real-time insights into market volatility and session dynamics. This customizable indicator, now available with a position toggle feature, compares the current session's range to a 10-day Average True Range (ATR), helping traders gauge market activity and anticipate potential movements.
#### Key Features
- **Live Range Tracking**: Displays the current session's range (high minus low) alongside a 10-day ATR, updated in real-time during market hours.
- **Session Mode Flexibility**: Includes an auto-toggle option to switch between Electronic Trading Hours (ETH) and Regular Trading Hours (RTH), adapting to your preferred trading session. Manually select ETH or RTH, or let the indicator auto-detect based on market hours.
- **Comprehensive Metrics**: Offers a detailed breakdown including:
- Range/Avg %: Percentage of the current range relative to the 10-day ATR.
- Points Left: Remaining points to reach the average range.
- 100% Range Up/Dn: Potential upper and lower targets based on the ATR difference.

Advanced Range Theory - ART📊 Advanced Range Theory (ART): The Institutional Blueprint
Stop drawing lines. Start reading the blueprint of the market. Advanced Range Theory (ART) is not another support and resistance indicator; it is a military-grade market structure engine designed to decode the language of institutional capital. It operates on a single, powerful premise: markets move in phases of consolidation and expansion, and the key to anticipation lies in understanding the complete lifecycle of these phases.
ART provides a living, breathing map of the battlefield, identifying institutional accumulation zones and tracking them with unparalleled precision from their inception as "Pending" ranges to their ultimate classification after a breakout. This is your X-ray into the market's skeletal structure.
🔬 THEORETICAL FRAMEWORK: THE ARCHITECTURE OF PRICE ACTION
ART is built on a multi-layered system of logic that moves beyond static levels. It treats ranges as dynamic entities with a narrative—a beginning, a middle, and an end. The core of the system is the dynamic classification engine, which analyzes not just the range, but the character of the price action that resolves it.
1. The Range Lifecycle: From Accumulation to Classification
This is the revolutionary heart of ART. A range's true identity is only revealed by how it is broken.
Phase 1: PENDING (Yellow): A new range is identified based on a period of price consolidation (a "parent" candle followed by a minimum number of "inside" candles). At this stage, it is a neutral zone of potential energy—an area where institutions are likely building positions. It is a question the market has not yet answered.
Phase 2: MITIGATION & CLASSIFICATION: When price breaks out and reaches a calculated extension level, the range is considered "mitigated." At this exact moment, ART analyzes the breakout's DNA to classify the range's true intent:
TYPE 1 - BREAKOUT (Blue): Characterized by a strong, impulsive move with confirming volume. This is a high-conviction breakout, signaling aggressive institutional participation and the likely start of a new trend. It is a statement of intent.
TYPE 2 - REVERSAL (Orange): Occurs when price attempts to break one way but is aggressively rejected, reversing and breaking out the other side. This signals absorption and a "failed auction," often marking significant market turning points.
TYPE 3 - PIVOT (Green): A more balanced breakout, lacking the explosive momentum of a Type 1. This often represents a resolution after a period of indecision or a pivot within a larger trading range.
2. The Hierarchical Map: Source & S/R Levels
ART doesn't just draw boxes; it builds a genealogical map of market structure.
SOURCE LEVEL (Thick Gold Line): This is the "genesis" point—the most recently mitigated range. It acts as the primary point of origin for the current market swing and serves as a critical level for determining overall bias. Price action above the Source is generally bullish; below is bearish.
S/R LEVELS (Cyan Lines): When a range is mitigated, the price level where it broke becomes a key Support/Resistance zone for the future. ART tracks the two most recent S/R levels, as these often act as powerful magnets or rejection points for price.
3. The Multi-Factor Validation Engine
To eliminate noise and focus only on institutionally significant ranges, every potential range must pass a rigorous quality control check:
Time-Based Consolidation: Requires a minimum number of consecutive inside candles (minInsideCandles), ensuring a true period of balance.
Volatility-Based Significance: The range's size must be greater than a multiple of the Average True Range (minRangeSize), filtering out insignificant micro-consolidations.
Participation Confirmation: The parent candle of the range is checked against average volume to ensure there was meaningful activity during its formation.
⚙️ THE COMMAND CONSOLE: CONFIGURING YOUR ART ENGINE
Every input is designed to give you granular control over the detection engine, allowing you to tune ART to any market or timeframe with precision. Each tooltip in the script provides a deep dive, but here is a summary of the core controls.
🎯 ART Detection Engine
Minimum Inside Candles: The soul of the detection algorithm. It defines the minimum number of bars that must be contained within a single "parent" candle to qualify as a range. Higher values (3-4) find major, significant consolidation zones. Lower values (1-2) are more sensitive and will identify shorter-term accumulation patterns.
Extension Multiplier & Fibonacci Extension: These control the profit target projections. The Extension Multiplier uses a simple measured move (e.g., 1.0 = a 1:1 projection of the range's height). The Fibonacci Extension uses the golden ratio (1.618) for harmonically-derived targets.
Mitigation Method (Cross vs. Close): Determines how a breakout is confirmed. Cross is more responsive, triggering as soon as price touches the extension. Close is more conservative, requiring a full candle to close beyond the level, which helps filter out fake-outs from wicks.
Min Range Size (ATR): A crucial noise filter. It ensures that ART ignores tiny, insignificant ranges by requiring a range's height to be a certain multiple of the current market volatility (ATR).
📊 Display & Visual Configuration
These settings give you full control over the visual interface. You can toggle every single element—from the Webb Scanner to the S/R Levels—to create a clean or a comprehensive view. Choose a color theme that suits your charting environment or define a fully custom palette.
🕸️ Webb Analysis Scanner
This is a unique real-time flow analysis tool. It draws dynamic, animated lines from the current price to recent historical points. This visualization helps reveal hidden "tendrils" of momentum and short-term support/resistance that are not immediately obvious, acting as a "sonar" for immediate price flow.
📊 THE ANALYTICS HUB: YOUR DASHBOARD DECODED
The dashboard provides a real-time, at-a-glance intelligence briefing on the current state of market structure as seen by the ART engine.
RANGE METRICS: This section is a "census" of the market's structure. It tells you the total number of ranges identified, how many are still Pending (awaiting a breakout), how many are Unmitigated (active but not yet broken), and how many have been Mitigated (classified and complete).
TYPE BREAKDOWN: This is a powerful gauge of market character. A high count of Type 1 (Breakout) ranges suggests a strong, trending environment. A rising number of Type 2 (Reversal) ranges can signal market exhaustion and potential trend changes. A dominant Type 3 (Pivot) count indicates a balanced, rotational market.
KEY GUIDE: The Large dashboard includes a full legend, so you never have to guess what a line or color represents. It's your built-in user manual.
🎨 DECODING THE BLUEPRINT: A VISUAL INTERPRETATION GUIDE
Every line and color in ART is designed for instant, intuitive understanding.
The Range Lines:
Yellow Lines: A Pending range. This is an active zone of accumulation. Pay close attention.
Colored Lines (Blue/Orange/Green): An unmitigated, classified range. The color tells you its breakout character.
Dotted Lines: A Mitigated range. Its story has been told. These historical levels can still act as support or resistance.
The Identification Zones: These colored boxes appear at a range's origin point after it has been classified. They are the "birth certificate" of the range, permanently marking its type (Breakout, Reversal, or Pivot) and providing an immediate visual history of market behavior.
The Hierarchical Lines:
Thick Gold Line (Source): The most important line on your chart. It is the anchor for your bias.
Cyan Lines (S/R): High-probability decision points. Expect reactions here.
Purple Dotted Lines (Extensions): Logical, calculated profit targets for breaking ranges.
🔧 THE ARCHITECT'S VISION: THE DEVELOPMENT JOURNEY
ART was born from a deep frustration with the static and subjective nature of traditional market structure analysis. Drawing lines by hand is inconsistent, and most indicators are reactive, only confirming what has already happened. The goal was to create a proactive, objective, and dynamic framework that could think about the market in terms of phases and lifecycles.
The breakthrough came from a simple shift in perspective: a range's true character isn't defined when it forms, but by how it resolves. This led to the development of the "post-breakout classification engine," which waits for the market to show its hand before assigning a definitive type. The Webb Scanner was inspired by the desire to visualize the unseen, to create a tool that could feel the immediate "pull" and "push" of price flow. The result is not just an indicator; it is a new language for interpreting price action, built on a foundation of logic, clarity, and precision.
⚠️ RISK DISCLAIMER & BEST PRACTICES
Advanced Range Theory is a professional-grade analytical tool designed to enhance a trader's decision-making process. It does not provide direct buy or sell signals. The levels and classifications it generates are based on historical price action and mathematical probabilities. All trading involves substantial risk, and past performance is not indicative of future results. Always use this tool in conjunction with a robust risk management plan.

GCM Bull Bear RiderGCM Bull Bear Rider (GCM BBR)
Your Ultimate Trend-Riding Companion
GCM Bull Bear Rider is a comprehensive, all-in-one trend analysis tool designed to eliminate guesswork and provide a crystal-clear view of market direction. By leveraging a highly responsive Jurik Moving Average (JMA), this indicator not only identifies bullish and bearish trends with precision but also tracks their performance in real-time, helping you ride the waves of momentum from start to finish.
Whether you are a scalper, day trader, or swing trader, the GCM BBR adapts to your style, offering a clean, intuitive, and powerful visual guide to the market's pulse.
Key Features
JMA-Powered Trend Lines (UTPL & DTPL): The core of the indicator. A green "Up Trend Period Line" (UTPL) appears when the JMA's slope turns positive (buyers are in control), and a red "Down Trend Period Line" (DTPL) appears when the slope turns negative (sellers are in control). The JMA is used for its low lag and superior smoothing, giving you timely and reliable trend signals.
Live Profit Tracking Labels: This is the standout feature. As soon as a trend period begins, a label appears showing the real-time profit (P:) from the trend's starting price. This label moves with the trend, giving you instant feedback on its performance and helping you make informed trade management decisions.
Historical Performance Analysis: The profit labels remain on the chart for completed trends, allowing you to instantly review past performance. See at a glance which trends were profitable and which were not, aiding in strategy refinement and backtesting.
Automatic Chart Decluttering: To keep your chart clean and focused on significant moves, the indicator automatically removes the historical profit label for any trend that fails to achieve a minimum profit threshold (default is 0.5 points).
Dual-Ribbon Momentum System:
JMA / Short EMA Ribbon: Visualizes short-term momentum. A green fill indicates immediate bullish strength, while a red fill shows bearish pressure.
Short EMA / Long EMA Ribbon: Acts as a long-term trend filter, providing broader market context for your decisions.
"GCM Hunt" Entry Signals: The indicator includes optional pullback entry signals (green and red triangles). These appear when the price pulls back to a key moving average and then recovers in the direction of the primary trend, offering high-probability entry opportunities.
How to Use
Identify the Trend: Look for the appearance of a solid green line (UTPL) for a bullish bias or a solid red line (DTPL) for a bearish bias. Use the wider EMA ribbon for macro trend confirmation.
Time Your Entry: For aggressive entries, you can enter as soon as a new trend line appears. For more conservative entries, wait for a "GCM Hunt" triangle signal, which confirms a successful pullback.
Ride the Trend & Manage Your Trade: The moving profit label (P:) is your guide. As long as the trend line continues and the profit is increasing, you can confidently stay in the trade. A flattening JMA or a decreasing profit value can signal that the trend is losing steam.
Focus Your Strategy: Use the Display Mode setting to switch between "Buyers Only," "Sellers Only," or both. This allows you to completely hide opposing signals and focus solely on long or short opportunities.
Core Settings
Display Mode: The master switch. Choose to see visuals for "Buyers & Sellers," "Buyers Only," or "Sellers Only."
JMA Settings (Length, Phase): Fine-tune the responsiveness of the core JMA engine.
EMA Settings (Long, Short): Adjust the lengths of the moving averages that define the ribbons and "Hunt" signals.
Label Offset (ATR Multiplier): Customize the gap between the trend lines and the profit labels to avoid overlap with candles.
Filters (EMA, RSI, ATR, Strong Candle): Enable or disable various confirmation filters to strengthen the "Hunt" entry signals according to your risk tolerance.
Add the GCM Bull Bear Rider to your chart today and transform the way you see and trade the trend!

At its core, the script uses an ATR-based trailing stop with trend detection:
ATR Length – Defines volatility smoothing using EMA MA of true range.
Multiplier – Expands/retracts the trailing offset depending on market aggression.
Real-Time Extremum Tracking – Uses local highs/lows to define Fibonacci anchors.
⚪ Fibonacci Projection + Heatmap
With each trend shift, Fibonacci levels are projected from the new swing to the current trailing stop. These include:
Fib 61.8, 78.6, 88.6, and 100% (trailing stop) lines
Heatmap Coloring – Each level'slevel's color is determined by how frequently price has interacted with that level in the recent range (defined by ATR).
Strength Score (1–10) – The number of touches per level is normalized and averaged to create a heatmap ""score"" displayed as a colored bar on the chart.
⚪ Breakout Signal System
This engine detects high-confidence breakout signals using a higher timeframe candle structure:
Bullish Breakout – Strong bullish candle + momentum + trend confirmation + heatmap score threshold.
Bearish Breakout – Strong bearish candle + momentum + trend confirmation + heatmap score threshold.
Cooldown Logic – Prevents signals from clustering too frequently during volatile periods.
█ How to Use
⚪ Trend Following & Trail Stops
Use the Trailing Stop line to manage positions or time entries in line with trend direction. Trailing stop flips are highlighted with dot markers.
⚪ Fibonacci Heat Zones
The projected Fibonacci levels serve as price magnets or support/resistance zones. Watch how price reacts at Fib 61.8/78.6/88.6 levels — especially when they're glowing with high heatmap scores (more glow = more historical touches = stronger significance).
⚪ Breakout Signals
Enable breakout signals when you want to trade breakouts only under strong context. Use the "Heatmap Strength Threshold" to require a minimum score (1–10).
█ Settings
Stop Distance ATR Length – ATR period for volatility smoothing
Stop Distance Multiplier – Adjusts the trailing stop'sstop's distance from price
Heatmap Range ATR Length – Defines how far back the heatmap scans for touches
Number of Heat Levels – Total levels used in the heatmap (more = finer resolution)
Minimum Touches per Level – Defines what counts as a ""hot"" level
Heatmap Strength Threshold – Minimum average heat score (1–10) required for breakouts
Timeframe – HTF source used to evaluate breakout momentum structure

MTF Pivot Fib Speed Resistance FansOverview
This Pine Script indicator, titled "MTF Pivot Fib Speed Resistance Fans", is a multi-timeframe tool that automatically plots Fib Speed Resistance Fan lines based on pivot structures derived from higher timeframes. It mirrors the functionality of TradingView’s built-in “Fib Speed Resistance Fan” drawing tool, but in a dynamic, programmatic way. It uses pivot highs and lows to anchor fan projections, drawing forward-facing trend lines that align with well-known Fibonacci ratios and their extensions.
Pivot Detection Logic
The script identifies pivots by comparing the current bar’s high and low against the highest and lowest prices over a user-defined pivot period. This pivot detection occurs on a higher timeframe of your choice, giving a broader and more strategic view of price structure. The script tracks direction changes in the pivot trend and stores only the most recent few pivots to maintain clean and meaningful fan drawings.
Fan Direction Control
The user can select whether to draw fans for "Buys", "Sells", or "Both". The script only draws fan lines when a new directional move is detected based on the pivot structure and the selected bias. For example, in “Buys” mode, a rising pivot followed by another higher low will trigger upward fan projections.
Fib Speed Resistance Levels
Once two pivots are identified, the script draws multiple fan lines from the first pivot outward, at angles defined by a preset list of Fibonacci levels. These fan lines help visualize speed and strength of a price move.
The script also draws a horizontal line from the pivot for additional confluence at the base level (1.0).
Price Level Plotting
In addition to drawing fan lines, the indicator also plots their price levels on the right-hand price scale. This makes it easier for users to visually reference the projected support and resistance levels without needing to trace the lines manually across the chart.
Mapping to TradingView’s "Fib Speed Resistance Fan"
The expanded set of values used in this script is not arbitrary—they closely align with the default and extended levels available in TradingView's built-in "Fib Speed Resistance Fan" tool.
TradingView’s Fib Fan tool offers several levels by default, including traditional Fibonacci ratios like 0.382, 0.5, 0.618, and 1. However, if you right-click the tool and open its settings, you’ll find additional toggles for levels like 1.618, 2.000, 2.618, and even 4.000. These deeper levels are used to project stronger trend continuations beyond the standard retracement zones.
The inclusion of levels such as 0.25, 0.75, and 1.34 reflects configurations that are available when you manually add or customize levels in TradingView’s fan tool. While 1.34 is not a canonical Fibonacci ratio, it is often found in hybrid Gann/Fib methods and is included in some preset templates in TradingView’s drawing tool for advanced users.
By incorporating these levels directly into the Pine Script, the indicator faithfully reproduces the fan structure users would manually draw using TradingView’s graphical Fib Fan tool—but does so programmatically, dynamically, and with multi-timeframe control. This eliminates manual errors, allows for responsive updating, and adds custom visual tracking via the price scale.
These values are standardized within the context of TradingView's Fib Fan tool and not made up. This script automates what the manual drawing tool achieves, with added precision and flexibility.
Options Volatility Strategy Analyzer [TradeDots]The Options Volatility Strategy Analyzer is a specialized tool designed to help traders assess market conditions through a detailed examination of historical volatility, market benchmarks, and percentile-based thresholds. By integrating multiple volatility metrics (including VIX and VIX9D) with color-coded regime detection, the script provides users with clear, actionable insights for selecting appropriate options strategies.
📝 HOW IT WORKS
1. Historical Volatility & Percentile Calculations
Annualized Historical Volatility (HV): The script automatically computes the asset’s historical volatility using log returns over a user-defined period. It then annualizes these values based on the chart’s timeframe, helping you understand the asset’s typical volatility profile.
Dynamic Percentile Ranks: To gauge where the current volatility level stands relative to past behavior, historical volatility values are compared against short, medium, and long lookback periods. Tracking these percentile ranks allows you to quickly see if volatility is high or low compared to historical norms.
2. Multi-Market Benchmark Comparison
VIX and VIX9D Integration: The script tracks market volatility through the VIX and VIX9D indices, comparing them to the asset’s historical volatility. This reveals whether the asset’s volatility is outpacing, lagging, or remaining in sync with broader market volatility conditions.
Market Context Analysis: A built-in term-structure check can detect market stress or relative calm by measuring how VIX compares to shorter-dated volatility (VIX9D). This helps you decide if the present environment is risk-prone or relatively stable.
3. Volatility Regime Detection
Color-Coded Background: The analyzer assigns a volatility regime (e.g., “High Asset Vol,” “Low Asset Vol,” “Outpacing Market,” etc.) based on current historical volatility percentile levels and asset vs. market ratios. A color-coded background highlights the regime, enabling traders to quickly interpret the market’s mood.
Alerts on Regime Changes & Spikes: Automated alerts warn you about any significant expansions or contractions in volatility, allowing you to react swiftly in changing conditions.
4. Strategy Forecast Table
Real-Time Strategy Suggestions: At the close of each bar, an on-chart table generates suggested options strategies (e.g., selling premium in high volatility or buying premium in low volatility). These suggestions provide a quick summary of potential tactics suited to the current regime.
Contextual Market Data: The table also displays key statistics, such as VIX levels, asset historical volatility percentile, or ratio comparisons, helping you confirm whether volatility conditions warrant more conservative or more aggressive strategies.
🛠️ HOW TO USE
1. Select Your Timeframe: The script supports multiple timeframes. For short-term trading, intraday charts often reveal faster shifts in volatility. For swing or position trading, daily or weekly charts may be more stable and produce fewer false signals.
2. Check the Volatility Regime: Observe the background color and on-chart labels to identify the current regime (e.g., “HIGH ASSET VOL,” “LOW VOL + LAGGING,” etc.).
3. Review the Forecast Table: The table suggests strategy ideas (e.g., iron condors, long straddles, ratio spreads) depending on whether volatility is elevated, subdued, or spiking. Use these as a starting point for designing trades that match your risk tolerance.
4. Combine with Additional Analysis: For optimal results, confirm signals with your broader trading plan, technical tools (moving averages, price action), and fundamental research. This script is most effective when viewed as one component in a comprehensive decision-making process.
❗️LIMITATIONS
Directional Neutrality: This indicator analyzes volatility environments but does not predict price direction (up/down). Traders must combine with directional analysis for complete strategy selection.
Late or Missed Signals: Since all calculations require a bar to close, sharp intrabar volatility moves may not appear in real-time.
False Positives in Choppy Markets: Rapid changes in percentile ranks or VIX movements can generate conflicting or premature regime shifts.
Data Sensitivity: Accuracy depends on the availability and stability of volatility data. Significant gaps or unusual market conditions may skew results.
Market Correlation Assumptions: The system assumes assets generally correlate with S&P 500 volatility patterns. May be less effective for:
Small-cap stocks with unique volatility drivers
International stocks with different market dynamics
Sector-specific events disconnected from broad market
Cryptocurrency-related assets with independent volatility patterns
RISK DISCLAIMER
Options trading involves substantial risk and is not suitable for all investors. Options strategies can result in significant losses, including the total loss of premium paid. The complexity of options strategies requires thorough understanding of the risks involved.
This indicator provides volatility analysis for educational and informational purposes only and should not be considered as investment advice. Past volatility patterns do not guarantee future performance. Market conditions can change rapidly, and volatility regimes may shift without warning.
No trading system can guarantee profits, and all trading involves the risk of loss. The indicator's regime classifications and strategy suggestions should be used as part of a comprehensive trading plan that includes proper risk management, directional analysis, and consideration of broader market conditions.
PLR-Z For Loop🧠 Overview
PLR-Z For Loop is a trend-following indicator built on the Power Law Residual Z-score model of Bitcoin price behavior. By measuring how far price deviates from a long-term power law regression and applying a custom scoring loop, this tool identifies consistent directional pressure in market structure. Designed for BTC, this indicator helps traders align with macro trends.
🧩 Key Features
Power Law Residual Model: Tracks deviations of BTC price from its long-term logarithmic growth curve.
Z-Score Normalization: Applies long-horizon statistical normalization (400/1460 bars) to smooth residual deviations into a usable trend signal.
Loop-Based Trend Filter: Iteratively scores how often the current Z-score exceeds prior values, emphasizing trend persistence over volatility.
Optional Smoothing: Toggleable exponential smoothing helps filter noise in choppier market conditions.
Directional Regime Coloring: Aqua (bullish) and Red (bearish) visuals reinforce trend alignment across plots and candles.
🔍 How It Works
Power Law Curve: Price is compared against a logarithmic regression model fitted to historical BTC price evolution (starting July 2010), defining structural support, resistance, and centerline levels.
Residual Z-Score: The residual is calculated as the log-difference between price and the power law center.
This residual is then normalized using a rolling mean (400 days) and standard deviation (1460 days) to create a long-term Z-score.
Loop Scoring Logic:
A loop compares the current Z-score to a configurable number of past bars.
Each higher comparison adds +1, and each lower one subtracts -1.
The result is a trend persistence score (z_loop) that grows with consistent directional momentum.
Smoothing Option: A user-defined EMA smooths the score, if enabled, to reduce short-term signal noise.
Signal Logic:
Long signal when trend score exceeds long_threshold.
Short signal when score drops below short_threshold.
Directional State (CD): Internally manages the current market regime (1 = long, -1 = short), controlling all visual output.
🔁 Use Cases & Applications
Macro Trend Alignment: Ideal for traders and analysts tracking Bitcoin’s structural momentum over long timeframes.
Trend Persistence Filter: Helps confirm whether the current move is part of a sustained trend or short-lived volatility.
Best Suited for BTC: Built specifically on the BNC BLX price history and Bitcoin’s power law behavior. Not designed for use with other assets.
✅ Conclusion
PLR-Z For Loop reframes Bitcoin’s long-term power law model into a trend-following tool by scoring the persistence of deviations above or below fair value. It shifts the focus from valuation-based mean reversion to directional momentum, making it a valuable signal for traders seeking high-conviction participation in BTC’s broader market cycles.

magic wand STSM"Magic Wand STSM" Strategy: Trend-Following with Dynamic Risk Management
Overview:
The "Magic Wand STSM" (Supertrend & SMA Momentum) is an automated trading strategy designed to identify and capitalize on sustained trends in the market. It combines a multi-timeframe Supertrend for trend direction and potential reversal signals, along with a 200-period Simple Moving Average (SMA) for overall market bias. A key feature of this strategy is its dynamic position sizing based on a user-defined risk percentage per trade, and a built-in daily and monthly profit/loss tracking system to manage overall exposure and prevent overtrading.
How it Works (Underlying Concepts):
Multi-Timeframe Trend Confirmation (Supertrend):
The strategy uses two Supertrend indicators: one on the current chart timeframe and another on a higher timeframe (e.g., if your chart is 5-minute, the higher timeframe Supertrend might be 15-minute).
Trend Identification: The Supertrend's direction output is crucial. A negative direction indicates a bearish trend (price below Supertrend), while a positive direction indicates a bullish trend (price above Supertrend).
Confirmation: A core principle is that trades are only considered when the Supertrend on both the current and the higher timeframe align in the same direction. This helps to filter out noise and focus on stronger, more confirmed trends. For example, for a long trade, both Supertrends must be indicating a bearish trend (price below Supertrend line, implying an uptrend context where price is expected to stay above/rebound from Supertrend). Similarly, for short trades, both must be indicating a bullish trend (price above Supertrend line, implying a downtrend context where price is expected to stay below/retest Supertrend).
Trend "Readiness": The strategy specifically looks for situations where the Supertrend has been stable for a few bars (checking barssince the last direction change).
Long-Term Market Bias (200 SMA):
A 200-period Simple Moving Average is plotted on the chart.
Filter: For long trades, the price must be above the 200 SMA, confirming an overall bullish bias. For short trades, the price must be below the 200 SMA, confirming an overall bearish bias. This acts as a macro filter, ensuring trades are taken in alignment with the broader market direction.
"Lowest/Highest Value" Pullback Entries:
The strategy employs custom functions (LowestValueAndBar, HighestValueAndBar) to identify specific price action within the recent trend:
For Long Entries: It looks for a "buy ready" condition where the price has found a recent lowest point within a specific number of bars since the Supertrend turned bearish (indicating an uptrend). This suggests a potential pullback or consolidation before continuation. The entry trigger is a close above the open of this identified lowest bar, and also above the current bar's open.
For Short Entries: It looks for a "sell ready" condition where the price has found a recent highest point within a specific number of bars since the Supertrend turned bullish (indicating a downtrend). This suggests a potential rally or consolidation before continuation downwards. The entry trigger is a close below the open of this identified highest bar, and also below the current bar's open.
Candle Confirmation: The strategy also incorporates a check on the candle type at the "lowest/highest value" bar (e.g., closevalue_b < openvalue_b for buy signals, meaning a bearish candle at the low, suggesting a potential reversal before a buy).
Risk Management and Position Sizing:
Dynamic Lot Sizing: The lotsvalue function calculates the appropriate position size based on your Your Equity input, the Risk to Reward ratio, and your risk percentage for your balance % input. This ensures that the capital risked per trade remains consistent as a percentage of your equity, regardless of the instrument's volatility or price. The stop loss distance is directly used in this calculation.
Fixed Risk Reward: All trades are entered with a predefined Risk to Reward ratio (default 2.0). This means for every unit of risk (stop loss distance), the target profit is rr times that distance.
Daily and Monthly Performance Monitoring:
The strategy tracks todaysWins, todaysLosses, and res (daily net result) in real-time.
A "daily profit target" is implemented (day_profit): If the daily net result is very favorable (e.g., res >= 4 with todaysLosses >= 2 or todaysWins + todaysLosses >= 8), the strategy may temporarily halt trading for the remainder of the session to "lock in" profits and prevent overtrading during volatile periods.
A "monthly stop-out" (monthly_trade) is implemented: If the lres (overall net result from all closed trades) falls below a certain threshold (e.g., -12), the strategy will stop trading for a set period (one week in this case) to protect capital during prolonged drawdowns.
Trade Execution:
Entry Triggers: Trades are entered when all buy/sell conditions (Supertrend alignment, SMA filter, "buy/sell situation" candle confirmation, and risk management checks) are met, and there are no open positions.
Stop Loss and Take Profit:
Stop Loss: The stop loss is dynamically placed at the upTrendValue for long trades and downTrendValue for short trades. These values are derived from the Supertrend indicator, which naturally adjusts to market volatility.
Take Profit: The take profit is calculated based on the entry price, the stop loss, and the Risk to Reward ratio (rr).
Position Locks: lock_long and lock_short variables prevent immediate re-entry into the same direction once a trade is initiated, or after a trend reversal based on Supertrend changes.
Visual Elements:
The 200 SMA is plotted in yellow.
Entry, Stop Loss, and Take Profit lines are plotted in white, red, and green respectively when a trade is active, with shaded areas between them to visually represent risk and reward.
Diamond shapes are plotted at the bottom of the chart (green for potential buy signals, red for potential sell signals) to visually indicate when the buy_sit or sell_sit conditions are met, along with other key filters.
A comprehensive trade statistics table is displayed on the chart, showing daily wins/losses, daily profit, total deals, and overall profit/loss.
A background color indicates the active trading session.
Ideal Usage:
This strategy is best applied to instruments with clear trends and sufficient liquidity. Users should carefully adjust the Your Equity, Risk to Reward, and risk percentage inputs to align with their individual risk tolerance and capital. Experimentation with different ATR Length and Factor values for the Supertrend might be beneficial depending on the asset and timeframe.
Information Asymmetry Gradient (IAG) What is the Information Asymmetry Gradient (IAG)?
The Information Asymmetry Gradient (IAG) is a unique market regime and imbalance detector that quantifies the subtle, directional “information flow” in price and volume. Inspired by information theory and market microstructure, IAG is designed to help traders spot the early buildup of conviction or surprise—the kind of hidden imbalance that often precedes major price moves.
Unlike traditional volume or momentum indicators, IAG focuses on the efficiency and directionality of information transfer: how much “informational energy” is being revealed by up-moves versus down-moves, normalized by price movement. It’s not just about net flow, but about the quality and asymmetry of that flow.
Theoretical Foundation
Information Asymmetry: Markets move when new information is revealed. If one side (buyers or sellers) is consistently more “informationally efficient” per unit of price change, an imbalance is building—even if price hasn’t moved much yet.
Gradient: By tracking the rate of change (gradient) between fast and slow information flows, IAG highlights when a subtle imbalance is accelerating.
Volatility of Asymmetry: Sudden spikes in the volatility of information asymmetry often signal regime uncertainty or the approach of a “surprise” move.
How IAG Works
Directional Information Content: For each bar, IAG estimates the “information per unit of price change” for both up-moves and down-moves, using volume and price action.
Asymmetry Calculation: Computes the difference (or ratio) between up and down information content, revealing directional bias.
Gradient Detection: Calculates both a fast and slow EMA of the asymmetry, then measures their difference (the “gradient”), normalized as a Z-score.
Volatility of Asymmetry: Tracks the standard deviation of asymmetry over a rolling window, with Z-score normalization to spot “information shocks.”
Flow Strength: Quantifies the conviction of the current information flow on a 0–100 scale.
Regime Detection: Flags “extreme” asymmetry, “building” flow, and “high volatility” states.

Hull-Exponential Moving Average (HEMA)The Hull Exponential Moving Average (HEMA) is an experimental technical indicator that uses a sequence of Exponential Moving Averages (EMAs) with the same logic as HMA - except with EMAs and not WMAs. It aims to create a responsive yet smooth trend indicator than HMA.
HEMA applies a multi-stage EMA process. Initial EMAs are calculated using alphas derived from logarithmic relationships and the input period. Their outputs are then combined in a de-lagging step, which itself uses a logarithmically derived ratio. A final EMA smoothing pass is then applied to this de-lagged series. This creates a moving average that responds quickly to genuine price changes while maintaining effective noise filtering. The specific alpha calculations and the de-lagging formula contribute to its balance between responsiveness and smoothness.
▶️ **Core Concepts**
Logarithmically-derived alphas: Alpha values for the three EMA stages are derived using natural logarithms and specific formulas related to the input period **N**.
Three-stage EMA process: The calculation involves:
An initial EMA (using **αS**) on the source data.
A second EMA (using **αF**) also on the source data.
A de-lagging step that combines the outputs of the first two EMAs using a specific ratio **r**.
A final EMA (using **αFin**) applied to the de-lagged series.
Specific de-lagging formula: Utilizes a constant ratio **r = ln(2.0) / (1.0 + ln(2.0))** to combine the outputs of the first two EMAs, aiming to reduce lag.
Optimized final smoothing: The alpha for the final EMA (**αFin**) is calculated based on the square root of the period **N**.
Warmup compensation: The internal EMA calculations include a warmup mechanism to provide more accurate values from the initial bars. This involves tracking decay factors (**eS**, **eF**, **eFin**) and applying a compensation factor **1.0 / (1.0 - e_decay)** during the warmup period. A shared warmup duration is determined by the smallest alpha among the three stages.
HEMA achieves its characteristics through this multi-stage EMA process, where the specific alpha calculations and the de-lagging step are key to its responsiveness and smoothness.
▶️ **Common Settings and Parameters**
Period (**N**): Default: 10 | Base lookback period for all alpha calculations | When to Adjust: Increase for longer-term trends and more smoothness, decrease for shorter-term signals and more responsiveness
Source: Default: Close | Data point used for calculation | When to Adjust: Change to HL2, HLC3, or OHLC4 for different price representations
Pro Tip: The HEMA's behavior is sensitive to the **Period** setting due to the non-linear relationships in its alpha calculations. Experiment with values around your typical MA periods. Small changes in **N** can have a noticeable impact, especially for smaller **N** values.
▶️ **Calculation and Mathematical Foundation**
Simplified explanation:
HEMA calculates its value through a sequence of three Exponential Moving Averages (EMAs) with specially derived smoothing factors (alphas).
Two initial EMAs are calculated from the source price, using alphas **αS** and **αF**.
The outputs of these two EMAs are combined into a "de-lagged" series.
This de-lagged series is then smoothed by a third EMA, using alpha **αFin**, to produce the final HEMA value.
All internal EMAs use a warmup compensation mechanism for improved accuracy on early bars.
Technical formula (let **N** be the input period):
1. Alpha for the first EMA (slow component related):
αS = 3.0 / (2.0 * N - 1.0)
2. Lambda for **αS** (intermediate value):
λS = -ln(1.0 - αS)
Note: **αS** must be less than 1, which implies 2N-1 > 3 or N > 2 for **λS** to be well-defined without NaN from ln of non-positive number. The code uses nz() for robustness but the formula implies this constraint.
3. De-lagging ratio **r**:
r = ln(2.0) / (1.0 + ln(2.0))
(This is a constant, approximately 0.409365)
4. Alpha for the second EMA (fast component related):
αF = 1.0 - exp(-λS / r)
5. Alpha for the final EMA smoothing:
αFin = 2.0 / (sqrt(N) / 2.0 + 1.0)
6. Applying the stages:
**OutputS = EMA_internal(source, αS, eS_state, emaS_state)**
**OutputF = EMA_internal(source, αF, eF_state, emaF_state)**
8. Calculate the de-lagged series:
DeLag = (OutputF / (1.0 - r)) - (r * OutputS / (1.0 - r))
9. Calculate the final HEMA:
HEMA = EMA_internal(DeLag, αFin, eFin_state, emaFin_state)
🔍 Technical Note: The HEMA implementation uses a shared warmup period controlled by **aMin** (the minimum of **αS**, **αF**, **αFin**). During this period, each internal EMA stage still tracks its own decay factor (**eS**, **eF**, **eFin**) to apply the correct compensation. The **nz()** function is used in the code to handle potential NaN values from alpha calculations if **N** is very small (e.g., **N=1** would make **αS=3**, **1-αS = -2**, **ln(-2)** is NaN).
▶️ **Interpretation Details**
HEMA provides several key insights for traders:
When price crosses above HEMA, it often signals the beginning of an uptrend
When price crosses below HEMA, it often signals the beginning of a downtrend
The slope of HEMA provides insight into trend strength and momentum
HEMA creates smooth dynamic support and resistance levels during trends
Multiple HEMA lines with different periods can identify potential reversal zones
HEMA is particularly effective for trend following strategies where both responsiveness and noise reduction are important. It provides earlier signals than traditional EMAs while exhibiting less whipsaw than standard HMA in choppy market conditions. The indicator excels at identifying the underlying trend direction while filtering out minor price fluctuations.
▶️ **Limitations and Considerations**
Experimental nature: As an experimental indicator, HEMA may behave differently from established HMA in certain market conditions
Lag characteristics: While designed to reduce lag, HEMA may exhibit slightly more lag than HMA in some scenarios due to the long tail of EMA
Mathematical complexity: The multi-stage calculation with specialized alpha parameters makes the behavior less intuitive to understand
Parameter sensitivity: Performance can vary significantly with different period settings
Complementary tools: Works best when combined with volume analysis or momentum indicators for confirmation

This indicator is designed for traders who want to monitor volatility and range behavior at the start of the trading week . It focuses specifically on the first four 15-minute candles of each Monday and tracks their combined high-low range over time.
How It Works
Monday 1H Range Detection:
Each week, it automatically detects and highlights the first 4 candles of Monday on a 15-minute chart (1 hour total). It calculates the range between the highest high and lowest low of these candles.
10-Week Average of Monday 1H Ranges:
It stores and averages the last 10 such ranges, displaying this average in a table for weekly comparison.
30-Day Daily Range Average:
Separately, it calculates the average daily range (high – low) of the last 30 daily candles. This value helps put the Monday 1H range into broader context and can guide Stop Loss or TP planning.
Dynamic Labeling & Visual Highlights:
The script visually highlights the first 4 candles of Monday and places a label showing the pip range once the 4 candles have completed. It also updates a small table with the two averages described above.
How to Use It
Use it on the 15-minute timeframe to activate the Monday 1H logic.
Compare the current week’s Monday range to the 10-week average to see if volatility is increasing or decreasing.
Use the 30-day daily range to determine if the Monday opening movement is unusually large or small.
Consider adjusting trade entries, stops, or targets if the Monday range is disproportionately large compared to recent historical behavior.
What Makes It Original?
This is not a typical volatility indicator like ATR or standard deviation. Instead, it’s a purpose-built tool combining:
Time-specific behavior (first hour of the week),
Historical contextualization (10-week average tracking),
A dual-timeframe analysis (15-min + daily),
A user-friendly table and visual interface.
This script helps intraday or swing traders spot abnormal volatility early in the week and adjust their strategies accordingly—especially in fast-moving Forex or Index markets.
(DAFE) DEVMA - Crossover (Deviation Moving Average) (DAFE) DEVMA - Crossover (Deviation Moving Average)
Let’s keep pushing the edge. After the breakthrough of Deviation over Deviation (DoD)—which gave traders a true lens into volatility’s hidden regime shifts—many asked: “What’s next?” The answer is DEVMA: a crossover engine built not on price, but on the heartbeat of the market itself.
Why is this different?
DEVMA isn’t just a moving average crossover. It’s a regime detector that tracks the expansion and contraction of deviation—giving you a real-time readout of when the market’s energy is about to shift. This is the next step for anyone who wants to anticipate volatility, not just react to it.
What sets DEVMA apart:
Volatility-First Logic:Both fast and slow lines are moving averages of deviation, not price. You’re tracking the market’s “energy,” not just its direction. This is the quant edge that most scripts miss.
Regime-Colored Lines:
The fast and slow DEVMA lines change color in real time—green/aqua for expansion, maroon/orange for contraction—so you can see regime shifts at a glance.
Quant-Pro Visuals:
Subtle glow, clean cross markers, and a minimalist dashboard keep your focus on what matters: the regime, not the noise.
Static Regime Thresholds:
Reference lines at 1.5 and 0.5 (custom colors) give you instant context for “normal” vs. “extreme” volatility states.
No Price Chasing:
This isn’t about following price. It’s about anticipating the next volatility regime—before the crowd even knows what’s coming.
How this builds on DoD:
DoD showed you when volatility itself was about to change. DEVMA takes that insight and turns it into a crossover engine—so you can see, filter, and act on regime shifts in real time. If DoD was the radar, DEVMA is the navigation system.
Inputs/Signals—explained for clarity:
Deviation Lookback:
Controls the sensitivity of the regime detector. Shorter = more signals, longer = only the rarest events.
Fast/Slow DEVMA Lengths:
Fine-tune how quickly the regime lines react. Fast for scalping, slow for swing trading.
Source Selection:
Choose from price, volume, volatility, or VoVix. Each source gives you a different lens on market stress. VoVix is for those who want to see the “regime quake” before the aftershocks.
VoVix Parameters:
Fine-tune the volatility-of-volatility engine for your market. Lower ATR Fast = more responsive; higher ATR Slow = more selective.
Bottom line:
DEVMA is for those who want to see the market’s heartbeat, not just its shadow. Use it to filter your trades, time your entries, or simply understand the market’s true rhythm. Every input is there for a reason. Every plot is a direct readout of the quant logic. Use with discipline, and make it your own.

Max Trend Points [BigBeluga]🔵 OVERVIEW
A clean and powerful tool for identifying major trend shifts and quantifying the strength of each move using dynamically calculated price extremes.
This indicator helps traders visualize the most significant trend changes by plotting trend direction lines and dynamically tracking the highest or lowest point within each trend leg. It’s ideal for identifying key price impulses and measuring their magnitude in real time.
🔵 CONCEPTS
Uses an adaptive trend-following logic based on volatility envelopes created from HMA of the price range (high - low).
Identifies trend direction and flips when price breaks above or below these dynamic envelopes.
Tracks swing highs and lows within the current trend leg to highlight trend extremes.
Calculates and displays the percentage gain or drop from trend start to trend peak/valley.
🔵 FEATURES
Trend Shift Detection:
Plots a colored trend line (uptrend or downtrend) that updates based on price action volatility.
Impulse Mapping:
Draws a dashed line between the point of trend change (close) and the current trend leg's extreme (highest high or lowest low).
Percentage Labeling:
Displays a floating label showing the exact percent change from the trend start to the current extreme.
Real-Time Adjustments:
As the trend progresses, the extreme point and the percent label update automatically to reflect new highs/lows.
🔵 HOW TO USE
Look for the trend color shift and circular marker to identify a new potential trend direction.
Use the dashed lines and percent label to evaluate the strength and potential maturity of each move.
Combine this tool with support/resistance levels or other indicators to identify confluence zones.
Adjust the "Factor" input to make the trend detection more or less sensitive depending on your timeframe.
🔵 CONCLUSION
Max Trend Points is an efficient visual indicator for understanding the structure and magnitude of trending moves. It provides essential feedback on how far a trend has traveled, where momentum may be peaking, and when a shift may be underway—all with real-time adaptability and clean presentation.

Reintegration OPR zone 9h30📝 Indicator Description (for TradingView):
Name: Reintegration OPR Zone – 9:30 AM EST (UTC-4)
Purpose:
This indicator is designed for US indices like NAS100, US30, or SPX500. It helps identify potential false breakouts or retests by tracking when the price re-enters the Opening Price Range (OPR) after an initial breakout.
🔍 How it works:
At 9:30 AM New York time (UTC-4), the script captures the high and low of the first 15-minute candle (which is key for the US session open).
It then draws a horizontal box (rectangle) from the high to the low of that candle.
The box extends horizontally for 7 hours (28 candles on a 15-minute chart).
The script tracks if price:
Breaks above or below the OPR zone
Then re-enters the zone (a potential "fakeout" or "retest" signal)
No label or text is displayed on the chart (you requested it to be hidden).
🕒 Timeframe:
Designed for the 15-minute chart (M15)
Assumes New York session open at 9:30 AM EST (UTC-4)
