Momentum Grid 2.1 + Top Stocks📊 MOMENTUM GRID 2.1 + TOP STOCKS
Overview
A multi-timeframe confirmation system specifically designed for NIFTY 50 and BANK NIFTY index options trading. This script combines 8 independent technical indicators into a weighted scoring model to generate high-probability CE (Call) and PE (Put) signals, while simultaneously tracking the top 5 constituent stocks for sector-wide momentum validation.

🎯 Core Methodology
1. 8-Factor Confirmation System
Unlike traditional single-indicator approaches, this script requires multiple confirmations before generating signals. Each factor votes independently:
Trend Alignment (3 votes):
• C1: Price above/below EMA 9 (immediate trend)
• C2: EMA 9 above/below EMA 20 (short-term momentum)
• C3: EMA 20 above/below EMA 50 (intermediate trend)
Oscillator Confirmation (3 votes):
• C4: RSI above/below 50 (momentum strength)
• C5: Stochastic K above/below D (entry timing)
• C6: MACD Histogram positive/negative (momentum direction)
Advanced Momentum (2 votes):
• C7: Parabolic SAR position (trend continuation)
• C8: Squeeze Momentum direction (volatility expansion)
Mathematical Logic:
Bullish Score = C1 + C2 + C3 + C4 + C5 + C6 + C7 + C8
Signal Triggered when Score ≥ Threshold (default: 5/8)
Why This Works: By requiring 5+ confirmations, the script filters out false signals that occur when only 1-2 indicators align by chance. This dramatically reduces whipsaws in choppy markets.

📈 Constituent Stock Analysis System
Real-Time Top 5 Stocks Tracking
The script fetches live data from the most heavily-weighted stocks in the selected index:
NIFTY 50 Constituents:
• Reliance Industries
• HDFC Bank
• Infosys
• ICICI Bank
• TCS
BANK NIFTY Constituents:
• HDFC Bank
• ICICI Bank
• Kotak Mahindra Bank
• State Bank of India
• Axis Bank
Stock Scoring Algorithm (0-6 Scale):
For each stock, the script calculates a momentum score based on:
1. Price vs EMA 9 position
2. EMA 9 vs EMA 20 relationship
3. EMA 20 vs EMA 50 hierarchy
4. RSI above/below 50
5. MACD histogram direction
6. Intraday price change direction
Signal Interpretation:
• 🚀🔥 Strong Bullish: Score ≥5 + Day Change >0.5%
• ⚠️❄️ Strong Bearish: Score ≤1 + Day Change <-0.5%
• 📈 Moderate Bullish: Score ≥3 + Positive change
• 📉 Moderate Bearish: Score ≤3 + Negative change
Why Track Constituents?
Index options are a weighted average of their components. When 4 out of 5 top stocks show strong bullish signals but the index signal is neutral, it indicates:
• Sector rotation is happening
• Underlying strength not yet reflected in index
• Early warning for potential index breakout

📊 Technical Indicator Details
Exponential Moving Averages (EMA)
• Why EMA vs SMA: Exponential weighting gives more importance to recent price action, making it more responsive to trend changes in fast-moving index options.
Relative Strength Index (RSI)
• Measures momentum on 0-100 scale
• 50 level acts as bull/bear dividing line
• Used for confirmation, not overbought/oversold
Stochastic Oscillator
• Compares closing price to recent range
• K line crossing above D line = bullish momentum shift
• Sensitive to short-term reversals
MACD (Moving Average Convergence Divergence)
• Histogram shows momentum acceleration/deceleration
• Positive histogram = increasing bullish momentum
• Used as tiebreaker when other signals conflict
Parabolic SAR
• Tracks stop-and-reverse points
• Dots below price = uptrend, above = downtrend
• Adds trend-following confirmation
Squeeze Momentum
• Identifies periods of low volatility (consolidation)
• Bollinger Bands inside Keltner Channels = "squeeze"
• Positive momentum during squeeze = bullish breakout setup

💡 What Makes This Script Unique
1. Index-Specific Design: Unlike generic multi-timeframe indicators, this is purpose-built for NIFTY/BANKNIFTY options with constituent stock correlation analysis.
2. Multi-Layer Validation: Combines price action (EMAs), momentum (RSI/Stoch/MACD), and volatility (Squeeze) for comprehensive market assessment.
3. Smart Constituent Tracking: Automatically switches stock universe based on selected index, providing sector-level context that single-chart indicators miss.
4. Adaptive Risk Management: ATR-based stop-loss and targets adjust to market volatility automatically, unlike fixed-point systems.
5. No Repainting: All calculations use confirmed bars with lookahead=barmerge.lookahead_off parameter, ensuring historical backtesting accuracy.
________________________________________
📚 Best Practices
Timeframe Selection:
• 5 min: Scalping (high frequency, tight stops)
• 15 min: Intraday swing trades (balanced)
• 1 hour: Positional option trades (overnight holds)
Trade Execution:
1. Wait for CE/PE label to appear
2. Check Top Stocks Status - look for 3+ stocks confirming index direction
3. Verify Scenario Guide shows acceptable risk-reward (min 1:1.5)
4. Enter on next candle open or use trigger level for limit orders
5. Place stop-loss at "Risk Limit" level
6. Scale out at "Price Objective" or trail with Parabolic SAR
False Signal Filters:
• Avoid signals during first 15 minutes of market open (high volatility)
• Skip signals when Top Stocks show conflicting directions (3 bull, 2 bear)
• Increase threshold to 6/8 during major news events
• Disable trading 30 minutes before important announcements
________________________________________
⚠️ Limitations & Considerations
• Index Options Specific: Optimized for NIFTY/BANKNIFTY - may need recalibration for other instruments
• Not Suitable for Trending Markets: Works best in swing/range conditions; reduce threshold in strong trends
• Constituent Data Dependency: Relies on accurate real-time stock data; verify broker data quality
• Options Greeks Ignored: Script doesn't account for theta decay, IV changes - user must manage option selection
________________________________________
🔔 Built-In Alerts
Set alerts for:
• CE Signal Generated: Bullish score crosses threshold
• PE Signal Generated: Bearish score crosses threshold
Alert messages include ticker symbol and entry price for quick execution.
________________________________________
📈 Performance Optimization Tips
1. Score Correlation Check: If Bull Score and Bear Score are both high (6+/8), market is conflicted - wait for resolution.
2. Stock Divergence Strategy: When 4/5 stocks are bullish but index shows PE signal, it often indicates a false breakdown - counter-trend opportunity.
3. Squeeze Breakout Combo: Strongest signals occur when Squeeze changes from "ON" to "OFF" simultaneously with CE/PE trigger.
4. EMA Stacking: Maximum confidence signals have all three EMAs in proper order (9>20>50 for bull, reverse for bear).
________________________________________
🎓 Educational Context
This methodology synthesizes:
• Multi-Timeframe Analysis: EMAs represent different trend horizons
• Oscillator Convergence: Multiple momentum tools reduce false positives
• Index Arbitrage Concepts: Constituent tracking exploits pricing inefficiencies
• Adaptive Volatility: ATR-based risk scales with market conditions
The 8-factor system mirrors institutional decision frameworks where analysts require consensus across multiple models before position changes.

Multi-Factor StrategyThis trading strategy combines multiple technical indicators to create a systematic approach for entering and exiting trades. The goal is to capture trends by aligning several key indicators to confirm the direction and strength of a potential trade. Below is a detailed description of how the strategy works:
Indicators Used
MACD (Moving Average Convergence Divergence):
MACD Line: The difference between the 12-period and 26-period Exponential Moving Averages (EMAs).
Signal Line: A 9-period EMA of the MACD line.
Usage: The strategy looks for crossovers between the MACD line and the Signal line as entry signals. A bullish crossover (MACD line crossing above the Signal line) indicates a potential upward movement, while a bearish crossover (MACD line crossing below the Signal line) signals a potential downward movement.
RSI (Relative Strength Index):
Usage: RSI is used to gauge the momentum of the price movement. The strategy uses specific thresholds: below 70 for long positions to avoid overbought conditions and above 30 for short positions to avoid oversold conditions.
ATR (Average True Range):
Usage: ATR measures market volatility and is used to set dynamic stop-loss and take-profit levels. A stop loss is set at 2 times the ATR, and a take profit at 3 times the ATR, ensuring that risk is managed relative to market conditions.
Simple Moving Averages (SMA):
50-day SMA: A short-term trend indicator.
200-day SMA: A long-term trend indicator.
Usage: The strategy uses the relationship between the 50-day and 200-day SMAs to determine the overall market trend. Long positions are taken when the price is above the 50-day SMA and the 50-day SMA is above the 200-day SMA, indicating an uptrend. Conversely, short positions are taken when the price is below the 50-day SMA and the 50-day SMA is below the 200-day SMA, indicating a downtrend.
Entry Conditions
Long Position:
-MACD Crossover: The MACD line crosses above the Signal line.
-RSI Confirmation: RSI is below 70, ensuring the asset is not overbought.
-SMA Confirmation: The price is above the 50-day SMA, and the 50-day SMA is above the 200-day SMA, indicating a strong uptrend.
Short Position:
MACD Crossunder: The MACD line crosses below the Signal line.
RSI Confirmation: RSI is above 30, ensuring the asset is not oversold.
SMA Confirmation: The price is below the 50-day SMA, and the 50-day SMA is below the 200-day SMA, indicating a strong downtrend.
Opposite conditions for shorts
Exit Strategy
Stop Loss: Set at 2 times the ATR from the entry price. This dynamically adjusts to market volatility, allowing for wider stops in volatile markets and tighter stops in calmer markets.
Take Profit: Set at 3 times the ATR from the entry price. This ensures a favorable risk-reward ratio of 1:1.5, aiming for higher rewards on successful trades.
Visualization
SMAs: The 50-day and 200-day SMAs are plotted on the chart to visualize the trend direction.
MACD Crossovers: Bullish and bearish MACD crossovers are highlighted on the chart to identify potential entry points.
Summary
This strategy is designed to align multiple indicators to increase the probability of successful trades by confirming trends and momentum before entering a position. It systematically manages risk with ATR-based stop loss and take profit levels, ensuring that trades are exited based on market conditions rather than arbitrary points. The combination of trend indicators (SMAs) with momentum and volatility indicators (MACD, RSI, ATR) creates a robust approach to trading in various market environments.
Luxy Super-Duper SuperTrend Predictor Engine and Buy/Sell signalA professional trend-following grading system that analyzes historical trend
patterns to provide statistical duration estimates using advanced similarity
matching and k-nearest neighbors analysis. Combines adaptive Supertrend with
intelligent duration statistics, multi-timeframe confluence, volume confirmation,
and quality scoring to identify high-probability setups with data-driven
target ranges across all timeframes.
Note: All duration estimates are statistical calculations based on historical data, not guarantees of future performance.
WHAT MAKES THIS DIFFERENT
Unlike traditional SuperTrend indicators that only tell you trend direction, this system answers the critical question: "What is the typical duration for trends like this?"
The Statistical Analysis Engine:
• Analyzes your chart's last 15+ completed SuperTrend trends (bullish and bearish separately)
• Uses k-nearest neighbors similarity matching to find historically similar setups
• Calculates statistical duration estimates based on current market conditions
• Learns from estimation errors and adapts over time (Advanced mode)
• Displays visual duration analysis box showing median, average, and range estimates
• Tracks Statistical accuracy with backtest statistics
Complete Trading System:
• Statistical trend duration analysis with three intelligence levels
• Adaptive Supertrend with dynamic ATR-based bands
• Multi-timeframe confluence analysis (6 timeframes: 5M to 1W)
• Volume confirmation with spike detection and momentum tracking
• Quality scoring system (0-70 points) rating each setup
• One-click preset optimization for all trading styles
• Anti-repaint guarantee on all signals and duration estimates
METHODOLOGY CREDITS
This indicator's approach is inspired by proven trading methodologies from respected market educators:
• Mark Minervini - Volatility Contraction Pattern (VCP) and pullback entry techniques
• William O'Neil - Volume confirmation principles and institutional buying patterns (CANSLIM methodology)
• Dan Zanger - Volatility expansion entries and momentum breakout strategies
Important: These are educational references only. This indicator does not guarantee any specific trading results. Always conduct your own analysis and risk management.
KEY FEATURES
1. TREND DURATION ANALYSIS SYSTEM - The Core Innovation
The statistical analysis engine is what sets this indicator apart from standard SuperTrend systems. It doesn't just identify trend changes - it provides statistical analysis of potential duration.
How It Works:
Step 1: Historical Tracking
• Automatically records every completed SuperTrend trend (duration in bars)
• Maintains separate databases for bullish trends and bearish trends
• Stores up to 15 most recent trends of each type
• Captures market conditions at each trend flip: volume ratio, ATR ratio, quality score, price distance from SuperTrend, proximity to support/resistance
Step 2: Similarity Matching (k-Nearest Neighbors)
• When new trend begins, system compares current conditions to ALL historical flips
• Calculates similarity score based on:
- Volume similarity (30% weight) - Is volume behaving similarly?
- Volatility similarity (30% weight) - Is ATR/volatility similar?
- Quality similarity (20% weight) - Is setup strength comparable?
- Distance similarity (10% weight) - Is price distance from ST similar?
- Support/Resistance proximity (10% weight) - Similar structural context?
• Selects the 15 MOST SIMILAR historical trends (not just all trends)
• This is like asking: "When conditions looked like this before, how long did trends last?"
Step 3: Statistical Analysis
• Calculates median duration (most common outcome)
• Calculates average duration (mean of similar trends)
• Determines realistic range (min to max of similar trends)
• Applies exponential weighting (recent trends weighted more heavily)
• Outputs confidence-weighted statistical estimate
Step 4: Advanced Intelligence (Advanced Mode Only)
The Advanced mode applies five sophisticated multipliers to refine estimates:
A) Market Structure Multiplier (±30%):
• Detects nearby support/resistance levels using pivot detection
• If flip occurs NEAR a key level: Estimate adjusted -30% (expect bounce/rejection)
• If flip occurs in open space: Estimate adjusted +30% (clear path for continuation)
• Uses configurable lookback period and ATR-based proximity threshold
B) Asset Type Multiplier (±40%):
• Adjusts duration estimates based on asset volatility characteristics
• Small Cap / Biotech: +40% (explosive, extended moves)
• Tech Growth: +20% (momentum-driven, longer trends)
• Blue Chip / Large Cap: 0% (baseline, steady trends)
• Dividend / Value: -20% (slower, grinding trends)
• Cyclical: Variable based on macro regime
• Crypto / High Volatility: +30% (parabolic potential)
C) Flip Strength Multiplier (±20%):
• Analyzes the QUALITY of the trend flip itself
• Strong flip (high volume + expanding ATR + quality score 60+): +20%
• Weak flip (low volume + contracting ATR + quality score under 40): -20%
• Logic: Historical data shows that powerful flips tend to be followed by longer trends
D) Error Learning Multiplier (±15%):
• Tracks Statistical accuracy over last 10 completed trends
• Calculates error ratio: (estimated duration / Actual Duration)
• If system consistently over-estimates: Apply -15% correction
• If system consistently under-estimates: Apply +15% correction
• Learns and adapts to current market regime
E) Regime Detection Multiplier (±20%):
• Analyzes last 3 trends of SAME TYPE (bull-to-bull or bear-to-bear)
• Compares recent trend durations to historical average
• If recent trends 20%+ longer than average: +20% adjustment (trending regime detected)
• If recent trends 20%+ shorter than average: -20% adjustment (choppy regime detected)
• Detects whether market is in trending or mean-reversion mode
Three analysis modes:
SIMPLE MODE - Basic Statistics
• Uses raw median of similar trends only
• No multipliers, no adjustments
• Best for: Beginners, clean trending markets
• Fastest calculations, minimal complexity
STANDARD MODE - Full Statistical Analysis
• Similarity matching with k-nearest neighbors
• Exponential weighting of recent trends
• Median, average, and range calculations
• Best for: Most traders, general market conditions
• Balance of accuracy and simplicity
ADVANCED MODE - Statistics + Intelligence
• Everything in Standard mode PLUS
• All 5 advanced multipliers (structure, asset type, flip strength, learning, regime)
• Highest Statistical accuracy in testing
• Best for: Experienced traders, volatile/complex markets
• Maximum intelligence, most adaptive
Visual Duration Analysis Box:
When a new trend begins (SuperTrend flip), a box appears on your chart showing:
• Analysis Mode (Simple / Standard / Advanced)
• Number of historical trends analyzed
• Median expected duration (most likely outcome)
• Average expected duration (mean of similar trends)
• Range (minimum to maximum from similar trends)
• Advanced multipliers breakdown (Advanced mode only)
• Backtest accuracy statistics (if available)
The box extends from the flip bar to the estimated endpoint based on historical data, giving you a visual target for trend duration. Box updates in real-time as trend progresses.
Backtest & Accuracy Tracking:
• System backtests its own duration estimates using historical data
• Shows accuracy metrics: how well duration estimates matched actual durations
• Tracks last 10 completed duration estimates separately
• Displays statistics in dashboard and duration analysis boxes
• Helps you understand statistical reliability on your specific symbol/timeframe
Anti-Repaint Guarantee:
• duration analysis boxes only appear AFTER bar close (barstate.isconfirmed)
• Historical duration estimates never disappear or change
• What you see in history is exactly what you would have seen real-time
• No future data leakage, no lookahead bias
2. INTELLIGENT PRESET CONFIGURATIONS - One-Click Optimization
Unlike indicators that require tedious parameter tweaking, this system includes professionally optimized presets for every trading style. Select your approach from the dropdown and ALL parameters auto-configure.
"AUTO (DETECT FROM TF)" - RECOMMENDED
The smartest option: automatically selects optimal settings based on your chart timeframe.
• 1m-5m charts → Scalping preset (ATR: 7, Mult: 2.0)
• 15m-1h charts → Day Trading preset (ATR: 10, Mult: 2.5)
• 2h-4h-D charts → Swing Trading preset (ATR: 14, Mult: 3.0)
• W-M charts → Position Trading preset (ATR: 21, Mult: 4.0)
Benefits:
• Zero configuration - works immediately
• Always matched to your timeframe
• Switch timeframe = automatic adjustment
• Perfect for traders who use multiple timeframes
"SCALPING (1-5M)" - Ultra-Fast Signals
Optimized for: 1-5 minute charts, high-frequency trading, quick profits
Target holding period: Minutes to 1-2 hours maximum
Best markets: High-volume stocks, major crypto pairs, active futures
Parameter Configuration:
• Supertrend: ATR 7, Multiplier 2.0 (very sensitive)

• Volume Momentum: AUTO-DISABLED (too restrictive for fast scalping)
• Quality minimum: 40 points (accepts more setups)
• Duration Analysis: Uses last 15 trends with heavy recent weighting
Trading Logic:
Speed over precision. Short ATR period and low multiplier create highly responsive SuperTrend. Volume momentum filter disabled to avoid missing fast moves. Quality threshold relaxed to catch more opportunities in rapid market conditions.
Signals per session: 5-15 typically
Hold time: Minutes to couple hours
Best for: Active traders with fast execution
"DAY TRADING (15M-1H)" - Balanced Approach
Optimized for: 15-minute to 1-hour charts, intraday moves, session-based trading
Target holding period: 30 minutes to 8 hours (within trading day)
Best markets: Large-cap stocks, major indices, established crypto
Parameter Configuration:
• Supertrend: ATR 10, Multiplier 2.5 (balanced)
• Volume: MA 20, High 1.5x, Spike 2.5x (standard detection)
• Volume Momentum: 5/20 periods (confirms intraday strength)
• Quality minimum: 50 points (good setups preferred)
• Duration Analysis: Balanced weighting of recent vs historical
Trading Logic:
The most balanced configuration. ATR 10 with multiplier 2.5 provides steady trend following that avoids noise while catching meaningful moves. Volume momentum confirms institutional participation without being overly restrictive.
Signals per session: 2-5 typically
Hold time: 30 minutes to full day
Best for: Part-time and full-time active traders
"SWING TRADING (4H-D)" - Trend Stability
Optimized for: 4-hour to Daily charts, multi-day holds, trend continuation

3. QUALITY SCORING SYSTEM (0-70 Points)
Every signal is rated in real-time across three dimensions:
Volume Confirmation (0-30 points):
• Volume Spike (2.5x+ average): 30 points
• High Volume (1.5x+ average): 20 points
• Above Average (1.0x+ average): 10 points
• Below Average: 0 points
Volatility Assessment (0-30 points):
• Expanding ATR (1.2x+ average): 30 points
• Rising ATR (1.0-1.2x average): 15 points
• Contracting/Stable ATR: 0 points
Volume Momentum (0-10 points):
• Strong Momentum (1.2x+ ratio): 10 points
• Rising Momentum (1.0-1.2x ratio): 5 points
• Weak/Neutral Momentum: 0 points
Score Interpretation:
60-70 points - EXCELLENT:
• All factors aligned
• High conviction setup
• Maximum position size (within risk limits)
• Primary trading opportunities
45-59 points - STRONG:
• Multiple confirmations present
• Above-average setup quality
• Standard position size
• Good trading opportunities
30-44 points - GOOD:
• Basic confirmations met
• Acceptable setup quality
• Reduced position size
• Wait for additional confirmation or trade smaller
Below 30 points - WEAK:
• Minimal confirmations
• Low probability setup
• Consider passing
• Only for aggressive traders in strong trends
Only signals meeting your minimum quality threshold (configurable per preset) generate alerts and labels.
4. MULTI-TIMEFRAME CONFLUENCE ANALYSIS
The system can simultaneously analyze trend alignment across 6 timeframes (optional feature):
Timeframes analyzed:
• 5-minute (scalping context)
• 15-minute (intraday momentum)
• 1-hour (day trading bias)
• 4-hour (swing context)
• Daily (primary trend)
• Weekly (macro trend)
Confluence Interpretation:
• 5-6/6 aligned - Very strong multi-timeframe agreement (highest confidence)
• 3-4/6 aligned - Moderate agreement (standard setup)
• 1-2/6 aligned - Weak agreement (caution advised)
Dashboard shows real-time alignment count with color-coding. Higher confluence typically correlates with longer, stronger trends.
5. VOLUME MOMENTUM FILTER - Institutional Money Flow
Unlike traditional volume indicators that just measure size, Volume Momentum tracks the RATE OF CHANGE in volume:
How it works:
• Compares short-term volume average (fast period) to long-term average (slow period)
• Ratio above 1.0 = Volume accelerating (money flowing IN)
• Ratio above 1.2 = Strong acceleration (institutional participation likely)
• Ratio below 0.8 = Volume decelerating (money flowing OUT)
Why it matters:
• Confirms trend with actual money flow, not just price
• Leading indicator (volume often leads price)
• Catches accumulation/distribution before breakouts
• More intuitive than complex mathematical filters
Integration with signals:
• Optional filter - can be enabled/disabled per preset
• When enabled: Only signals with rising volume momentum fire
• AUTO-DISABLED in Scalping mode (too restrictive for fast trading)
• Configurable fast/slow periods per trading style
6. ADAPTIVE SUPERTREND MULTIPLIER
Traditional SuperTrend uses fixed ATR multiplier. This system dynamically adjusts the multiplier (0.8x to 1.2x base) based on:
• Trend Strength: Price correlation over lookback period
• Volume Weight: Current volume relative to average
Benefits:
• Tighter bands in calm markets (less premature exits)
• Wider bands in volatile conditions (avoids whipsaws)
• Better adaptation to biotech, small-cap, and crypto volatility
• Optional - can be disabled for classic constant multiplier
7. VISUAL GRADIENT RIBBON
26-layer exponential gradient fill between price and SuperTrend line provides instant visual trend strength assessment:
Color System:
• Green shades - Bullish trend + volume confirmation (strongest)
• Blue shades - Bullish trend, normal volume
• Orange shades - Bearish trend + volume confirmation
• Red shades - Bearish trend (weakest)
Opacity varies based on:
• Distance from SuperTrend (farther = more opaque)
• Volume intensity (higher volume = stronger color)
The ribbon provides at-a-glance trend strength without cluttering your chart. Can be toggled on/off.
8. INTELLIGENT ALERT SYSTEM
Two-tier alert architecture for flexibility:
Automatic Alerts:
• Fire automatically on BUY and SELL signals
• Include full context: quality score, volume state, volume momentum
• One alert per bar close (alert.freq_once_per_bar_close)
• Message format: "BUY: Supertrend bullish + Quality: 65/70 | Volume: HIGH | Vol Momentum: STRONG (1.35x)"
Customizable Alert Conditions:
• Appear in TradingView's "Create Alert" dialog

USING duration analysis boxES FOR TRADE MANAGEMENT:
Entry Timing:
• Enter on SuperTrend flip (signal bar close)
• duration analysis box appears simultaneously
• Note the median duration - this is your expected hold time
Profit Targets:
• Conservative: Use MEDIAN duration as profit target (50% probability)
• Moderate: Use AVERAGE duration (mean of similar trends)
• Aggressive: Aim for MAX duration from range (best historical outcome)
Position Management:
• Scale out at median duration (take partial profits)
• Trail stop as trend extends beyond median
• Full exit at average duration or SuperTrend flip (whichever comes first)
• Re-evaluate if trend exceeds estimated range
analysis mode Selection:
• Simple: Clean trending markets, beginners, minimal complexity
• Standard: Most markets, most traders (recommended default)
• Advanced: Volatile markets, complex instruments, experienced traders seeking highest accuracy
Asset Type Configuration (Advanced Mode):
If using Advanced analysis mode, configure Asset Type for optimal accuracy:
• Small Cap: Stocks under $2B market cap, low liquidity
• Biotech / Speculative: Clinical-stage pharma, penny stocks, high-risk
• Blue Chip / Large Cap: S&P 500, mega-cap tech, stable large companies
• Tech Growth: High-growth tech (TSLA, NVDA, growth SaaS)
• Dividend / Value: Dividend aristocrats, value stocks, utilities
• Cyclical: Energy, materials, industrials (macro-driven)
• Crypto / High Volatility: Bitcoin, altcoins, highly volatile assets
Correct asset type selection improves Statistical accuracy by 15-20%.
RISK MANAGEMENT GUIDELINES:
1. Stop Loss Placement:
Long positions:
• Place stop below recent swing low OR
• Place stop below SuperTrend level (whichever is tighter)
• Use 1-2 ATR distance as guideline
• Recommended: SuperTrend level (built-in volatility adjustment)
Short positions:
• Place stop above recent swing high OR
• Place stop above SuperTrend level (whichever is tighter)
• Use 1-2 ATR distance as guideline
• Recommended: SuperTrend level
2. Position Sizing by Quality Score:
• Excellent (60-70): Maximum position size (2% risk per trade)
• Strong (45-59): Standard position size (1.5% risk per trade)
• Good (30-44): Reduced position size (1% risk per trade)
• Weak (Below 30): Pass or micro position (0.5% risk - learning trades only)
3. Exit Strategy Options:
Option A - Statistical Duration-Based Exit:
• Exit at median estimated duration (conservative)
• Exit at average estimated duration (moderate)
• Trail stop beyond average duration (aggressive)
Option B - Signal-Based Exit:
• Exit on opposite signal (SELL after BUY, or vice versa)
• Exit on SuperTrend flip (trend reversal)
• Exit if quality score drops below 30 mid-trend
Option C - Hybrid (Recommended):
• Take 50% profit at median estimated duration
• Trail stop on remaining 50% using SuperTrend as trailing level
• Full exit on SuperTrend flip or quality collapse
4. Trade Filtering:
For higher win-rate (fewer trades, better quality):
• Increase minimum quality score (try 60 for swing, 50 for day trading)
• Enable volume momentum filter (ensure institutional participation)
• Require higher MTF confluence (5-6/6 alignment)
• Use Advanced analysis mode with appropriate asset type
For more opportunities (more trades, lower quality threshold):
• Decrease minimum quality score (40 for day trading, 35 for scalping)
• Disable volume momentum filter
• Lower MTF confluence requirement
• Use Simple or Standard analysis mode

ADVANCED FEATURES
1. Scalpel Mode (Optional)
Advanced pullback entry system that waits for healthy retracements within established trends before signaling entry:
• Monitors price distance from SuperTrend levels
• Requires pullback to configurable range (default: 30-50%)
• Ensures trend remains intact before entry signal
• Reduces whipsaw and false breakouts
• Inspired by Mark Minervini's VCP pullback entries
Best for: Swing traders and day traders seeking precision entries
Scalpers: Consider disabling for faster entries
2. Error Learning System (Advanced analysis mode Only)
The system learns from its own estimation errors:
• Tracks last 10-20 completed duration estimates (configurable memory depth)
• Calculates error ratio for each: estimated duration / Actual Duration
• If system consistently over-estimates: Applies negative correction (-15%)
• If system consistently under-estimates: Applies positive correction (+15%)
• Adapts to current market regime automatically
This self-correction mechanism improves accuracy over time as the system gathers more data on your specific symbol and timeframe.
3. Regime Detection (Advanced analysis mode Only)
Automatically detects whether market is in trending or choppy regime:
• Compares last 3 trends to historical average
• Recent trends 20%+ longer → Trending regime (+20% to estimates)
• Recent trends 20%+ shorter → Choppy regime (-20% to estimates)
• Applied separately to bullish and bearish trends
Helps duration estimates adapt to changing market conditions without manual intervention.
4. Exponential Weighting
Option to weight recent trends more heavily than distant history:
• Default decay factor: 0.9
• Recent trends get higher weight in statistical calculations
• Older trends gradually decay in importance
• Rationale: Recent market behavior more relevant than old data
• Can be disabled for equal weighting
5. Backtest Statistics
System backtests its own duration estimates using historical data:
• Walks through past trends chronologically
• Calculates what duration estimate WOULD have been at each flip
• Compares to actual duration that occurred
• Displays accuracy metrics in duration analysis boxes and dashboard
• Helps assess statistical reliability on your specific chart
Note: Backtest uses only data available AT THE TIME of each historical flip (no lookahead bias).

KNOWN LIMITATIONS
• Trending Markets Only: Performs best in clear trends. May generate false signals in choppy/sideways markets (use quality score filtering and regime detection to mitigate)
• Lagging Nature: Like all trend-following systems, signals occur AFTER trend establishment, not at exact tops/bottoms. Use duration analysis boxes to set realistic profit targets.
• Initial Learning Period: Duration analysis system requires 10-15 completed trends to build reliable historical database. Early duration estimates less accurate (first few weeks on new symbol/timeframe).
• Visual Load: 26-layer gradient ribbon may slow performance on older devices. Disable ribbon if experiencing lag.
• Statistical accuracy Variables: Duration estimates are statistical estimates, not guarantees. Accuracy varies by:
- Market regime (trending vs choppy)
- Asset volatility characteristics
- Quality of historical pattern matches
- Timeframe traded (higher TF = more reliable)
• Not Best Suitable For:
- Ultra-short-term scalping (sub-1-minute charts)
- Mean-reversion strategies (designed for trend-following)
- Range-bound trading (requires trending conditions)
- News-driven spikes (estimates based on technical patterns, not fundamentals)
FREQUENTLY ASKED QUESTIONS
Q: Does this indicator repaint?
A: Absolutely not. All signals, duration analysis boxes, labels, and alerts use barstate.isconfirmed checks. They only appear after the bar closes. What you see in history is exactly what you would have seen in real-time. Zero repaint guarantee.
Q: How accurate are the trend duration estimates?
A: Accuracy varies by mode, market conditions, and historical data quality:
• Simple mode: 60-70% accuracy (within ±20% of actual duration)
• Standard mode: 70-80% accuracy (within ±20% of actual duration)
• Advanced mode: 75-85% accuracy (within ±20% of actual duration)
Best accuracy achieved on:
• Higher timeframes (4H, Daily, Weekly)
• Trending markets (not choppy/sideways)
• Assets with consistent behavior (Blue Chip, Large Cap)
• After 20+ historical trends analyzed (builds robust database)
Remember: All duration estimates are statistical calculations based on historical patterns, not guarantees.
Q: Which analysis mode should I use?
A:
• Simple: Beginners, clean trending markets, want minimal complexity
• Standard: Most traders, general market conditions (RECOMMENDED DEFAULT)
• Advanced: Experienced traders, volatile/complex markets (biotech, small-cap, crypto), seeking maximum accuracy
Advanced mode requires correct Asset Type configuration for optimal results.
Q: What's the difference between the trading style presets?
A: Each preset optimizes ALL parameters for a specific trading approach:
• Scalping: Ultra-sensitive (ATR 7, Mult 2.0), more signals, shorter holds
• Day Trading: Balanced (ATR 10, Mult 2.5), moderate signals, intraday holds
• Swing Trading: Stable (ATR 14, Mult 3.0), fewer signals, multi-day holds
• Position Trading: Very stable (ATR 21, Mult 4.0), rare signals, week/month holds
Auto mode automatically selects based on your chart timeframe.
Q: Should I use Auto mode or manually select a preset?
A: Auto mode is recommended for most traders. It automatically matches settings to your timeframe and re-optimizes if you switch charts. Only use manual preset selection if:
• You want scalping settings on a 15m chart (overriding auto-detection)
• You want swing settings on a 1h chart (more conservative than auto would give)
• You're testing different approaches on same timeframe
Q: Can I use this for scalping and day trading?
A: Absolutely! The preset system is specifically designed for all trading styles:
• Select "Scalping (1-5m)" for 1-5 minute charts
• Select "Day Trading (15m-1h)" for 15m-1h charts
• Or use "Auto" mode and it configures automatically
Volume momentum filter is auto-disabled in Scalping mode for faster signals.
Q: What is Volume Momentum and why does it matter?
A: Volume Momentum compares short-term volume (fast MA) to long-term volume (slow MA). It answers: "Is money flowing into this asset faster now than historically?"
Why it matters:
• Volume often leads price (early warning system)
• Confirms institutional participation (smart money)
• No lag like price-based indicators
• More intuitive than complex mathematical filters
When the ratio is above 1.2, you have strong evidence that institutions are accumulating (bullish) or distributing (bearish).
Q: How do I set up alerts?
A: Two options:
Option 1 - Automatic Alerts:
1. Right-click on chart → Add Alert
2. Condition: Select this indicator
3. Choose "Any alert() function call"
4. Configure notification method (app, email, webhook)
5. You'll receive detailed alerts on every BUY and SELL signal
Option 2 - Customizable Alert Conditions:
1. Right-click on chart → Add Alert
2. Condition: Select this indicator
3. You'll see three options in dropdown:
- "BUY Signal" (long signals only)
- "SELL Signal" (short signals only)
- "ANY Signal" (both BUY and SELL)
4. Choose desired option and customize message template
5. Uses TradingView placeholders: {{ticker}}, {{close}}, {{time}}, etc.
All alerts fire only on confirmed bar close (no repaint).
Q: What is Scalpel Mode and should I use it?
A: Scalpel Mode waits for healthy pullbacks within established trends before signaling entry. It reduces whipsaws and improves entry timing.
Recommended ON for:
• Swing traders (want precision entries on pullbacks)
• Day traders (willing to wait for better prices)
• Risk-averse traders (prefer fewer but higher-quality entries)
Recommended OFF for:
• Scalpers (need immediate entries, can't wait for pullbacks)
• Momentum traders (want to enter on breakout, not pullback)
• Aggressive traders (prefer more opportunities over precision)
Q: Why do some duration estimates show wider ranges than others?
A: Range width reflects historical trend variability:
• Narrow range: Similar historical trends had consistent durations (high confidence)
• Wide range: Similar historical trends had varying durations (lower confidence)
Wide ranges often occur:
• Early in analysis (fewer historical trends to learn from)
• In volatile/choppy markets (inconsistent trend behavior)
• On lower timeframes (more noise, less consistency)
The median and average still provide useful targets even when range is wide.
Q: Can I customize the dashboard position and appearance?
A: Yes! Dashboard settings include:
• Position: 9 options (Top/Middle/Bottom + Left/Center/Right)
• Text Size: Auto, Tiny, Small, Normal, Large, Huge
• Show/Hide: Toggle entire dashboard on/off
Choose position that doesn't overlap important price action on your specific chart.
Q: Which timeframe should I trade on?
A: Depends on your trading style and time availability:
• 1-5 minute: Active scalping, requires constant monitoring
• 15m-1h: Day trading, check few times per session
• 4h-Daily: Swing trading, check once or twice daily
• Daily-Weekly: Position trading, check weekly
General principle: Higher timeframes produce:
• Fewer signals (less frequent)
• Higher quality setups (stronger confirmations)
• More reliable duration estimates (better statistical data)
• Less noise (clearer trends)
Start with Daily chart if new to trading. Move to lower timeframes as you gain experience.
Q: Does this work on all markets (stocks, crypto, forex)?
A: Yes, it works on all markets with trending characteristics:
Excellent for:
• Stocks (especially growth and momentum names)
• Crypto (BTC, ETH, major altcoins)
• Futures (indices, commodities)
• Forex majors (EUR/USD, GBP/USD, etc.)
Best results on:
• Trending markets (not range-bound)
• Liquid instruments (tight spreads, good fills)
• Volatile assets (clear trend development)
Less effective on:
• Range-bound/sideways markets
• Ultra-low volatility instruments
• Illiquid small-caps (use caution)
Configure Asset Type (in Advanced analysis mode) to match your instrument for best accuracy.
Q: How many signals should I expect per day/week?
A: Highly variable based on:
By Timeframe:
• 1-5 minute: 5-15 signals per session
• 15m-1h: 2-5 signals per day
• 4h-Daily: 2-5 signals per week
• Daily-Weekly: 1-2 signals per month
By Market Volatility:
• High volatility = more SuperTrend flips = more signals
• Low volatility = fewer flips = fewer signals
By Quality Filter:
• Higher threshold (60-70) = fewer but better signals
• Lower threshold (30-40) = more signals, lower quality
By Volume Momentum Filter:
• Enabled = Fewer signals (only volume-confirmed)
• Disabled = More signals (all SuperTrend flips)
Adjust quality threshold and filters to match your desired signal frequency.
Q: What's the difference between entry labels and info labels?
A:
Entry Labels (BUY/SELL):
• Your primary trading signals
• Based on SuperTrend flip + all confirmations (quality, volume, momentum)
• Include quality score and confirmation icons
• These are actionable entry points
Info Labels (Volume Spike):
• Additional market context
• Show volume events that may support or contradict trend
• 8-bar cooldown to prevent spam
• NOT necessarily entry points - contextual information only
Control separately: Can show entry labels without info labels (recommended for clean charts).
Q: Can I combine this with other indicators?
A: Absolutely! This works well with:
• RSI: For divergences and overbought/oversold conditions
• Support/Resistance: Confluence with key levels
• Fibonacci Retracements: Pullback targets in Scalpel Mode
• Price Action Patterns: Flags, pennants, cup-and-handle
• MACD: Additional momentum confirmation
• Bollinger Bands: Volatility context
This indicator provides trend direction and duration estimates - complement with other tools for entry refinement and additional confluence.
Q: Why did I get a low-quality signal? Can I filter them out?
A: Yes! Increase the Minimum Quality Score in settings.
If you're seeing signals with quality below your preference:
• Day Trading: Set minimum to 50
• Swing Trading: Set minimum to 60
• Position Trading: Set minimum to 70
Only signals meeting the threshold will appear. This reduces frequency but improves win-rate.
Q: How do I interpret the MTF Confluence count?
A: Shows how many of 6 timeframes agree with current trend:
• 6/6 aligned: Perfect agreement (extremely rare, highest confidence)
• 5/6 aligned: Very strong alignment (high confidence)
• 4/6 aligned: Good alignment (standard quality setup)
• 3/6 aligned: Moderate alignment (acceptable)
• 2/6 aligned: Weak alignment (caution)
• 1/6 aligned: Very weak (likely counter-trend)
Higher confluence typically correlates with longer, stronger trends. However, MTF analysis is optional - you can disable it and rely solely on quality scoring.
Q: Is this suitable for beginners?
A: Yes, but requires foundational knowledge:
You should understand:
• Basic trend-following concepts (higher highs, higher lows)
• Risk management principles (position sizing, stop losses)
• How to read candlestick charts
• What volume and volatility mean
Beginner-friendly features:
• Auto preset mode (zero configuration)
• Quality scoring (tells you signal strength)
• Dashboard tooltips (hover for explanations)
• duration analysis boxes (visual profit targets)
Recommended for beginners:
1. Start with "Auto" or "Swing Trading" preset on Daily chart
2. Use Standard Analysis Mode (not Advanced)
3. Set minimum quality to 60 (fewer but better signals)
4. Paper trade first for 2-4 weeks
5. Study methodology references (Minervini, O'Neil, Zanger)
Q: What is the Asset Type setting and why does it matter?
A: Asset Type (in Advanced analysis mode) adjusts duration estimates based on volatility characteristics:
• Small Cap: Explosive moves, extended trends (+30-40%)
• Biotech / Speculative: Parabolic potential, news-driven (+40%)
• Blue Chip / Large Cap: Baseline, steady trends (0% adjustment)
• Tech Growth: Momentum-driven, longer trends (+20%)
• Dividend / Value: Slower, grinding trends (-20%)
• Cyclical: Macro-driven, variable (±10%)
• Crypto / High Volatility: Parabolic potential (+30%)
Correct configuration improves Statistical accuracy by 15-20%. Using Blue Chip settings on a biotech stock may underestimate trend length (you'll exit too early).
Q: Can I backtest this indicator?
A: Yes! TradingView's Strategy Tester works with this indicator's signals.
To backtest:
1. Note the entry conditions (SuperTrend flip + quality threshold + filters)
2. Create a strategy script using same logic
3. Run Strategy Tester on historical data
Additionally, the indicator includes BUILT-IN duration estimate validation:
• System backtests its own duration estimates
• Shows accuracy metrics in dashboard and duration analysis boxes
• Helps assess reliability on your specific symbol/timeframe
Q: Why does Volume Momentum auto-disable in Scalping mode?
A: Scalping requires ultra-fast entries to catch quick moves. Volume Momentum filter adds friction by requiring volume confirmation before signaling, which can cause missed opportunities in rapid scalping.
Scalping preset is optimized for speed and frequency - the filter is counterproductive for that style. It remains enabled for Day Trading, Swing Trading, and Position Trading presets where patience improves results.
You can manually enable it in Custom mode if desired.
Q: How much historical data do I need for accurate duration estimates?
A:
Minimum: 50-100 bars (indicator will function but duration estimates less reliable)
Recommended: 500+ bars (robust statistical database)
Optimal: 1000+ bars (maximum Statistical accuracy)
More history = more completed trends = better pattern matching = more accurate duration estimates.
New symbols or newly-switched timeframes will have lower Statistical accuracy initially. Allow 2-4 weeks for the system to build historical database.

HTF BIAS FILTER🧭HTF Bias Filter Indicator: 5 in 1 indicator
Technical Overview
The Bias Filter is a comprehensive multi-timeframe tool designed to confirm directional bias using five key indicators before entering a trade. It plots higher-timeframe Moving Averages directly on the chart and provides an immediate status summary via a static dashboard.
The more confluence on the dashboard, the greater the probability of the direction of the trade.
1. 📊 Display Components
A. Plotted Lines
The indicator uses the request.security function to draw Moving Averages from higher timeframes onto your current chart:
1H EMA 21 (Purple): The 21-period Exponential Moving Average calculated on the 1-Hour (60 min) chart. Plotted using a step-line style.
4H EMA 50 (Red): The 50-period Exponential Moving Average calculated on the 4-Hour (240 min) chart. Plotted using a step-line style.
B. Directional Dashboard
A fixed-position summary table is anchored to the bottom-right corner of the chart, providing a quick glance at the current status of all five filters.
2. 🎨 Colour Logic
Each of the five indicators is assigned a colour based on its current directional signal. The more indicators that show the same colour (confluence), the stronger the signal and the higher the likelihood of a high-probability trade.
🟢 Green indicators are signaling UP/BUY (Bullish momentum or trend).
🔴 Red indicators are signaling DOWN/SELL (Bearish momentum or trend).
⚫ Gray indicators are signaling Mixed or flat directions (neutral or undecided).
Note: The dashboard's main header color is determined by a strict confluence logic (All four 4H filters must align for Green/Red), while individual indicator colors follow the simple rules above.
3. 📋 Indicator Breakdown and Logic
The dashboard provides the direction of five different filters.
3.1. Higher-Timeframe (HTF) Trend Indicators
These two signals determine the immediate slope and direction of the primary Moving Averages:
4H EMA 50:
Timeframe: 4-Hour (240 min)
Logic: Compares the current EMA value to the value two bars ago on the 4H chart.
Output: UP ↑, DOWN ↓, or FLAT ⏸
1H EMA 21:
Timeframe: 1-Hour (60 min)
Logic: Compares the current EMA value to the value two bars ago on the 1H chart.
Output: UP ↑, DOWN ↓, or FLAT ⏸
3.2. 4-Hour Confluence Filters
These three indicators provide supplementary confirmation on Volume, Price Position, and Momentum, all calculated on the 4-Hour (240 min) chart:
4H OBV (Smoothed):
Timeframe: 4-Hour (240 min)
Logic: Direction is based on the current value of the 21-bar smoothed On-Balance Volume (OBV) compared to its value nine bars ago.
Output: UP ↑, DOWN ↓, or FLAT ⏸
4H ATR DIR (EMA Proxy):
Timeframe: 4-Hour (240 min)
Logic: Determines the price position by comparing the current Close price against the 4H EMA 50.
Output: BUY 🟢 (Close > EMA 50), SELL 🔴 (Close < EMA 50), or FLAT ⏸️ (Close = EMA 50).
4H RSI (14):
Timeframe: 4-Hour (240 min)
Logic: Momentum check comparing the 14-period Relative Strength Index (RSI) value against the 50 level.
Output: BUY 🟢 (RSI > 50), SELL 🔴 (RSI < 50), or FLAT ⏸️ (RSI = 50).
Trade The Matric / MACD-RSI Hybrid Candles**"MACD-RSI Hybrid Candles"** is a **custom TradingView Pine Script (v6)** indicator that **replaces your chart’s default candles** with **dynamically colored, intensity-adjusted candles** based on **combined MACD and RSI signals**.
It’s a **visual fusion** of:
- **MACD Histogram** → Momentum & Trend Strength
- **RSI** → Overbought/Oversold & Trend Confirmation
- **Dynamic Transparency** → Visualizes **signal strength**
The result? **At-a-glance confirmation of bullish/bearish phases** — no need to check subcharts.

## OVERVIEW: What This Indicator Does
| Feature | Purpose |
|-------|--------|
| **Replaces price candles** | Entire chart becomes a **live MACD-RSI signal map** |
| **Colors based on dual confirmation** | Only strong when **both** MACD and RSI agree |
| **Transparency = momentum intensity** | Brighter = stronger signal |
| **Labels & Alerts** | Highlights **phase changes** (bullish/bearish shifts) |
---
## USER INPUTS (Customizable)
| Input | Default | Description |
|------|--------|-----------|
| `fastLen` | 12 | MACD Fast EMA |
| `slowLen` | 26 | MACD Slow EMA |
| `signalLen` | 9 | MACD Signal Line |
| `rsiLen` | 14 | RSI Period |
| `showLabels` | true | Show "Bullish Phase" / "Bearish Phase" labels |
> Standard settings — tweak for sensitivity.
---
## CORE CALCULATIONS
### 1. **MACD**
```pinescript
macdLine = ta.ema(close, fastLen) - ta.ema(close, slowLen)
signalLine = ta.ema(macdLine, signalLen)
hist = macdLine - signalLine
```
- `hist > 0` → **Bullish momentum**
- `hist < 0` → **Bearish momentum**
### 2. **RSI**
```pinescript
rsi = ta.rsi(close, rsiLen)
```
- `rsi > 50` → **Bullish bias**
- `rsi < 50` → **Bearish bias**
---
## DUAL CONFIRMATION LOGIC
| Condition | Meaning |
|--------|--------|
| `bullCond = macdBull and rsiBull` | **MACD hist > 0** AND **RSI > 50** → **Confirmed Bullish** |
| `bearCond = macdBear and rsiBear` | **MACD hist < 0** AND **RSI < 50** → **Confirmed Bearish** |
| Otherwise | **Neutral / Conflicted** |
> Only **strong, aligned signals** get bright colors.
---
## DYNAMIC INTENSITY & TRANSPARENCY (Key Feature)
```pinescript
maxHist = ta.highest(math.abs(hist), 100)
intensity = math.abs(hist) / maxHist
transp = 90 - (intensity * 80)
```
### How It Works:
1. Finds **strongest MACD histogram value** in last 100 bars
2. Compares **current histogram** to that peak → `intensity` (0 to 1)
3. **Transparency scales from 90 (faint) → 10 (bright)**
| Intensity | Transparency | Visual Effect |
|---------|--------------|-------------|
| 0% (weak) | 90 | Almost transparent |
| 50% | 50 | Medium |
| 100% | 10 | **Vivid, bold candle** |
> **Brighter candle = stronger momentum relative to recent history**
---
## CANDLE COLOR LOGIC
| Condition | Candle & Wick Color | Transparency |
|--------|---------------------|------------|
| **Confirmed Bullish** (`bullCond`) | **Lime Green** | Dynamic (10–90) |
| **Confirmed Bearish** (`bearCond`) | **Red** | Dynamic (10–90) |
| **Neutral / Conflicted** | **Gray** | Fixed 80 (faint) |
> **Wicks and borders match body** → full candle takeover
---
## VISUAL OUTPUT
### 1. **Custom Candles**
```pinescript
plotcandle(open, high, low, close, color=barColor, wickcolor=barColor, bordercolor=barColor)
```
- **Replaces default chart candles**
- **No original candles visible**
### 2. **Labels (Optional)**
- **"Bullish Phase"** → Green label **below low** when:
- MACD histogram **crosses above zero**
- AND RSI **> 50**
- **"Bearish Phase"** → Red label **above high** when:
- MACD histogram **crosses below zero**
- AND RSI **< 50**
> Up to **500 labels** (`max_labels_count=500`)
---
## ALERTS (Built-In)
| Alert | Trigger |
|------|--------|
| **Bullish MACD-RSI Signal** | `ta.crossover(hist, 0) and rsi > 50` |
| **Bearish MACD-RSI Signal** | `ta.crossunder(hist, 0) and rsi < 50` |
> Message: *"MACD crossed above zero with RSI > 50 — Bullish phase."*
---
## HOW TO READ THE CHART
| Visual | Market State | Interpretation |
|-------|-------------|----------------|
| **Bright Lime Candles** | **Strong Bullish Momentum** | High conviction — trend accelerating |

Indicator Philosophy
Why Mathematical Constants?
Traditional EMAs use arbitrary periods (9, 21, 50, 200). Hellenic Matrix goes further, using universal mathematical constants found in nature:
Phi (1.618) - Golden Ratio: galaxy spirals, seashells, human body proportions
Pi (3.14159) - Pi: circles, waves, cycles
e (2.71828) - Natural logarithm base: exponential growth, radioactive decay
Markets are also a natural system composed of millions of participants. Using mathematical constants allows tuning into the natural rhythms of market cycles.
Mathematical Constants

EMA Types
1. Phi (Phi) - Golden Ratio EMA
Description: EMA based on the golden ratio
Period Formula:
Period = Phi^n × Base Multiplier
Parameters:
Phi Power Level (1-8): Power of Phi
Phi¹ = 1.618 → ~16 period (with Base=10)
Phi² = 2.618 → ~26 period
Phi³ = 4.236 → ~42 period (recommended)
Phi⁴ = 6.854 → ~69 period
Recommendations:
Phi² or Phi³ for day trading
Phi⁴ or Phi⁵ for swing trading
Works excellently as Fast EMA
2. Pi (Pi) - Circular EMA
Description: EMA based on Pi for cyclical movements
Period Formula:
Period = Pi × Multiple × Base Multiplier
Parameters:
Pi Multiple (1-10): Pi multiplier
1Pi = 3.14 → ~31 period (with Base=10)
2Pi = 6.28 → ~63 period (recommended)
3Pi = 9.42 → ~94 period
Recommendations:
2Pi ideal as Mid or Slow EMA
Excellently identifies cycles and waves
Use on volatile markets (crypto, forex)
3. e (Euler) - Natural EMA
Description: EMA based on natural logarithm
Period Formula:
Period = e^n × Base Multiplier
Parameters:
e Power Level (1-6): Power of e
e¹ = 2.718 → ~27 period (with Base=10)

Parameters:
Delta Base Period (5-200): Base period (default 20)
Delta Volatility Sensitivity (0.5-5.0): Volatility sensitivity (default 2.0)
How it works:
During low volatility → period decreases → EMA reacts faster
During high volatility → period increases → EMA smooths noise
Recommendations:
Works excellently on news and sharp movements
Use as Fast EMA for quick adaptation
Sensitivity 2.0-3.0 for crypto, 1.0-2.0 for stocks
5. Sigma (Sigma) - Composite EMA
Description: Composite EMA combining multiple active EMAs
Composition Methods:

Practical Tips
DOs
Use STRONG signals as primary - they're most reliable
Let signals develop - don't exit on first pullback
Use trailing stop - follow Fast EMA
Combine with levels - S/R, Fibonacci, volumes
Test on demo before real
Adjust Base Multiplier for your timeframe
Enable visual effects - they help see the picture
Use Info Table - quick situation assessment
Watch Pulsing Bar - instant state indicator
Trust auto-sorting of Fast/Mid/Slow
DON'Ts
Don't trade against STRONG signal - trend is your friend
Don't ignore Mid EMA - it adds reliability
Don't use too small Base Multiplier on higher TFs
Don't enter on Golden Cross in range - check for trend
Don't change settings during open position
Don't forget risk management - 1-2% per trade
Don't trade all signals in row - choose best ones
Don't use indicator in isolation - combine with Price Action
Don't set too tight stops - let trade breathe
Don't over-optimize - simplicity = reliability

FAQ
1. Why don't STRONG signals appear?
Possible reasons:
Incorrect Fast/Mid/Slow order
Solution: Indicator automatically sorts EMAs by periods, but ensure selected EMAs have different periods
Base Multiplier too large
Solution: Reduce Base to 5-10 on lower timeframes
Market in range
Solution: STRONG signals appear only in trends - this is normal
Too strict EMA settings
Solution: Try classic combination: Phi³ / Pi×2 / e² with Base=10
Mid EMA too close to Fast or Slow
Solution: Select Mid EMA with period between Fast and Slow
2. How often should STRONG signals appear?
Normal frequency:
M1-M5: 5-15 signals per day (very active markets)
M15-H1: 2-8 signals per day
H4: 3-10 signals per week
D1: 2-5 signals per month
W1: 2-6 signals per year
If too many signals - market very volatile or Base too small
If too few signals - market in range or Base too large
4. What are the best settings for beginners?
Universal "out of the box" settings:
Matrix Core:
Base Multiplier: 10
Source: close
Phi Golden: Enabled, Power = 3
Pi Circular: Enabled, Multiple = 2
e Natural: Enabled, Power = 2
Delta Adaptive: Enabled, Base = 20, Sensitivity = 2.0
Manual Selection:
Fast: Phi Golden
Mid: e Natural
Slow: Pi Circular
Visualization:
Gradient Clouds: ON
Neon Glow: ON (Medium)
Pulsing Bar: ON (Medium)
Signal Highlights: ON (Light Fill)
Table: ON (Top Right, Small)
Signals:
Golden/Death Cross: ON
STRONG Signals: ON
Stop Loss: OFF (while learning)
Timeframe for learning: H1 or H4
5. Can I use only one EMA?
No, minimum 2 EMAs (Fast and Slow) for signal generation.
Mid EMA is optional:
With Mid EMA = more reliable but rarer signals
Without Mid EMA = more signals but less strict filtering
Recommendation: Start with 3 EMAs (Fast/Mid/Slow), then experiment
6. Does the indicator work on cryptocurrencies?
Yes, works excellently! Especially good on:
Bitcoin (BTC)
Ethereum (ETH)
Major altcoins (SOL, BNB, XRP)
Recommended settings for crypto:
Fast: Delta Adaptive (Base 10-15, Sensitivity 2.5-3.0)
Mid: Pi Circular (2Pi)
Slow: e Natural (e²)
Base: 5-10
Timeframe: M15, H1, H4
Crypto market features:
High volatility → use Delta Adaptive
24/7 trading → set alerts
Sharp movements → wide stops
7. Can I trade only with this indicator?
Technically yes, but NOT recommended.
Best approach - combine with:
Price Action - support/resistance levels, candle patterns
Volume - movement strength confirmation
Fibonacci - retracement and extension levels
RSI/MACD - divergences and overbought/oversold
Fundamental analysis - news, company reports
Hellenic Matrix:
Excellently determines trend and its strength
Provides clear entry/exit points
Doesn't consider fundamentals
Doesn't see major levels
8. Why do Gradient Clouds change color?
Color depends on EMA order:
Phi-Pi Cloud:
Blue - Pi EMA above Phi EMA (bullish alignment)
Gold - Phi EMA above Pi EMA (bearish alignment)
Pi-e Cloud:
Green - e EMA above Pi EMA (bullish alignment)
Blue - Pi EMA above e EMA (bearish alignment)
Color change = EMA order change = possible trend change
9. What is Momentum % in the table?
Momentum % = percentage deviation of price from Fast EMA
Formula:
Momentum = ((Close - Fast EMA) / Fast EMA) × 100
Interpretation:
+0.5% to +2% - normal bullish momentum
+2% to +5% - strong bullish momentum
+5% and above - overheating (correction possible)
-0.5% to -2% - normal bearish momentum
-2% to -5% - strong bearish momentum
-5% and below - oversold (bounce possible)
Usage:
Monitor momentum during STRONG signals
Large momentum = don't enter (wait for pullback)
Small momentum = good entry point
10. How to configure for scalping?
Settings for scalping (M1-M5):
Base Multiplier: 3-5
Source: close or hlc3 (smoother)
Fast: Delta Adaptive (Base 8-12, Sensitivity 3.0)
Mid: None (for more signals)
Slow: Phi Golden (Phi²) or Pi Circular (1Pi)
Visualization:
- Gradient Clouds: ON (helps see strength)
- Neon Glow: OFF (doesn't clutter chart)
- Pulsing Bar: ON (quick assessment)
- Signal Highlights: ON
Signals:
- Golden/Death Cross: ON
- STRONG Signals: ON
- Stop Loss: ON (1.0-1.5 ATR, R:R 1.5-2.0)
Scalping rules:
Trade only STRONG signals
Enter on bounce from Fast EMA
Tight stops (10-20 pips)
Quick take profit (+1R to +2R)
Don't hold through news
11. How to configure for long-term investing?
Settings for investing (D1-W1):
Base Multiplier: 20-30
Source: close
Fast: Phi Golden (Phi³ or Phi⁴)
Mid: e Natural (e²)
Slow: Pi Circular (3Pi or 4Pi)
Visualization:
- Gradient Clouds: ON
- Neon Glow: ON (Medium)
- Everything else - to taste
Signals:
- Golden/Death Cross: ON
- STRONG Signals: ON
- Stop Loss: OFF (use percentage stop)
Investing rules:
Enter only on STRONG signals
Hold while STRONG active (weeks/months)
Stop below Slow EMA or -10%
Take profit: by company targets or +50-100%
Ignore short-term pullbacks
12. What if indicator slows down chart?
Indicator is optimized, but if it slows:
Disable unnecessary visual effects:
Neon Glow: OFF (saves 8 plots)
Gradient Clouds: ON but low quality
Lambda Wave EMA: OFF (if not using)
Reduce number of active EMAs:
Sigma Composite: OFF
Lambda Wave: OFF
Leave only Phi, Pi, e, Delta
Simplify settings:
Pulsing Bar: OFF
Greek Labels: OFF
Info Table: smaller size
13. Can I use on different timeframes simultaneously?
Yes! Multi-timeframe analysis is very powerful:
Classic scheme:
Higher TF (D1, W1) - determine global trend
Wait for STRONG signal
This is our trading direction
Middle TF (H4, H1) - look for confirmation
STRONG signal in same direction
Precise entry zone
Lower TF (M15, M5) - entry point
Golden Cross or bounce from Fast EMA
Precise stop loss
Example:
W1: STRONG BUY active (global uptrend)
H4: STRONG BUY appeared (confirmation)
M15: Wait for Golden Cross or bounce from Fast EMA → ENTRY
Advantages:
Maximum reliability
Clear timeframe hierarchy
Large targets
14. How does indicator work on news?
Delta Adaptive EMA adapts excellently to news:
Before news:
Low volatility → Delta EMA becomes fast → pulls to price
During news:
Sharp volatility spike → Delta EMA slows → filters noise
After news:
Volatility normalizes → Delta EMA returns to normal
Recommendations:
Don't trade at news release moment (spreads widen)
Wait for STRONG signal after news (2-5 bars)
Use Delta Adaptive as Fast EMA for quick reaction
Widen stops by 50-100% during important news
Advanced Techniques
Technique 1: "Divergences with EMA"
Idea: Look for discrepancies between price and Fast EMA
Bullish divergence:
Price makes lower low
Fast EMA makes higher low
= Possible reversal up
Bearish divergence:
Price makes higher high
Fast EMA makes lower high
= Possible reversal down
How to trade:
Find divergence
Wait for STRONG signal in divergence direction
Enter on confirmation
Technique 2: "EMA Tunnel"
Idea: Use space between Fast and Slow EMA as "tunnel"
Rules:
Wide tunnel - strong trend, hold position
Narrow tunnel - weak trend or consolidation, caution
Tunnel narrowing - trend weakening, prepare to exit
Tunnel widening - trend strengthening, can add
Visually: Gradient Clouds show this automatically!
Trading:
Enter on STRONG signal (tunnel starts widening)
Hold while tunnel wide
Exit when tunnel starts narrowing
Technique 3: "Wave Analysis with Lambda"
Idea: Lambda Wave EMA creates sinusoid matching market cycles
Setup:
Lambda Base Period: 30
Lambda Wave Amplitude: 0.5
Lambda Wave Frequency: 50 (adjusted to asset cycle)
How to find correct Frequency:
Look at historical cycles (distance between local highs)
Average distance = your Frequency
Example: if highs every 40-60 bars, set Frequency = 50
Trading:
Enter when Lambda Wave at bottom of sinusoid (growth potential)
Exit when Lambda Wave at top (fall potential)
Combine with STRONG signals
Technique 4: "Cluster Analysis"
Idea: When all EMAs gather in narrow cluster = powerful breakout soon
Cluster signs:
All EMAs (Phi, Pi, e, Delta) within 0.5-1% of each other
Gradient Clouds almost invisible
Price jumping around all EMAs
Trading:
Identify cluster (all EMAs close)
Determine breakout direction (where more volume, higher TFs direction)
Wait for breakout and STRONG signal
Enter on confirmation
Target = cluster size × 3-5
This is very powerful technique for big moves!
Technique 5: "Sigma as Dynamic Level"
Idea: Sigma Composite EMA = average of all EMAs = magnetic level
Usage:
Enable Sigma Composite (Weighted Average)
Sigma works as dynamic support/resistance
Price often returns to Sigma before trend continuation
Trading:
In trend: Enter on bounces from Sigma
In range: Fade moves from Sigma (trade return to Sigma)
On breakout: Sigma becomes support/resistance
Risk Management
Basic Rules
1. Position Size
Conservative: 1% of capital per trade
Moderate: 2% of capital per trade (recommended)
Aggressive: 3-5% (only for experienced)
Calculation formula:
Lot Size = (Capital × Risk%) / (Stop in pips × Pip value)
2. Risk/Reward Ratio
Minimum: 1:1.5
Standard: 1:2 (recommended)
Optimal: 1:3
Aggressive: 1:5+
3. Maximum Drawdown
Daily: -3% to -5%
Weekly: -7% to -10%
Monthly: -15% to -20%
Upon reaching limit → STOP trading until end of period
Position Management Strategies
1. Fixed Stop
Method:
Stop below/above Fast EMA or local extreme
DON'T move stop against position
Can move to breakeven
For whom: Beginners, conservative traders
2. Trailing by Fast EMA
Method:
Each day (or bar) move stop to Fast EMA level
Position closes when price breaks Fast EMA
Advantages:
Stay in trend as long as possible
Automatically exit on reversal
For whom: Trend followers, swing traders
3. Partial Exit
Method:
50% of position close at +2R
50% hold with trailing by Mid EMA or Slow EMA
Advantages:
Lock profit
Leave position for big move
Psychologically comfortable
For whom: Universal method (recommended)
4. Pyramiding
Method:
First entry on STRONG signal (50% of planned position)
Add 25% on pullback to Fast EMA
Add another 25% on pullback to Mid EMA
Overall stop below Slow EMA
Advantages:
Average entry price
Reduce risk
Increase profit in strong trends
Caution:
Works only in trends
In range leads to losses
For whom: Experienced traders
Trading Psychology
Correct Mindset
1. Indicator is a tool, not holy grail
Indicator shows probability, not guarantee
There will be losing trades - this is normal
Important is series statistics, not one trade
2. Trust the system
If STRONG signal appeared - enter
Don't search for "perfect" moment
Follow trading plan
3. Patience
STRONG signals don't appear every day
Better miss signal than enter against trend
Quality over quantity
4. Discipline
Always set stop loss
Don't move stop against position
Don't increase risk after losses
Beginner Mistakes
1. "I know better than indicator"
Indicator says STRONG BUY, but you think "too high, will wait for pullback"
Result: miss profitable move
Solution: Trust signals or don't use indicator
2. "Will reverse now for sure"
Trading against STRONG trend
Result: stops, stops, stops
Solution: Trend is your friend, trade with trend
3. "Will hold a bit more"
Don't exit when STRONG signal disappears
Greed eats profit
Solution: If signal gone - exit!
4. "I'll recover"
After losses double risk
Result: huge losses
Solution: Fixed % risk ALWAYS
5. "I don't like this signal"
Skip signals because of "feeling"
Result: inconsistency, no statistics
Solution: Trade ALL signals or clearly define filters

[AS] MACD-v & Hist [Alex Spiroglou | S.M.A.R.T. TRADER SYSTEMS] MACD-v & MACD-v Histogram
=======================================
Volatility Normalised Momentum 📈
Twice Awarded Indicator 🏆
=======================================
=======================================
✅ 1. INTRODUCTION TO THE MACD-v ✅
=======================================
I created the MACD-v in 2015,
as a way to deal with the limitations
of well known indicators like the Stochastic, RSI, MACD.
I decided to publicly share a very small part of my research
in the form of a research paper I wrote in 2022,
titled "MACD-v: Volatility Normalised Momentum".
That paper was awarded twice:
1. The "Charles H. Dow" Award (2022),
for outstanding research in Technical Analysis,
by the Chartered Market Technicians Association (CMTA)
2. The "Founders" Award (2022),
for advances in Active Investment Management,
by the National Association of Active Investment Managers (NAAIM)
=======================================
===================================================
❌ 2. WHY CREATE THE MACD-v ?
THE LIMITATIONS OF CONVENTIONAL MOMENTUM INDICATORS
====================================================
Technical Analysis indicators focused on momentum,
come in two general categories,
each with its own set of limitations:
(i) Range Bound Oscillators (RSI, Stochastics, etc)
These usually have a scaling of 0-100,
and thus have the advantage of having normalised readings,
that are comparable across time and securities.
However they have the following limitations (among others):
1. Skewing effect of steep trends
2. Indicator values do not adjust with and reflect true momentum
(indicator values are capped to 100)
(ii) Unbound Oscillators (MACD, RoC, etc)
These are boundless indicators,
and can expand with the market,
without being limited by a 0-100 scaling,
and thus have the advantage of really measuring momentum.
They have the main following limitations (among others):
1. Subjectivity of overbought / oversold levels
2. Not comparable across time
3. Not comparable across securities
=======================================
=======================================
💡 3. THE SOLUTION TO SOLVE THESE LIMITATIONS
=======================================
In order to deal with these limitations,
I decided to create an indicator,
that would be the "Best of two worlds".
A unique & hybrid indicator,
that would have objective normalised readings
(similar to Range Bound Oscillators - RSI)
but would also be able to have no upper/lower boundaries
(similar to Unbound Oscillators - MACD).
This would be achieved by "normalising" a boundless oscillator (MACD)
=======================================
==================================================
⛔ 4. DEEP DIVE INTO THE 5 LIMITATIONS OF THE MACD
==================================================
A Bloomberg study found that the MACD
is the most popular indicator after the RSI,
but the MACD has 5 BIG limitations.
Limitation 1: MACD values are not comparable across Time
The raw MACD values shift
as the underlying security's absolute value changes across time,
making historical comparisons obsolete
e.g S&P 500 maximum MACD was 1.56 in 1957-1971,
but reached 86.31 in 2019-2021 - not indicating 55x stronger momentum,
but simply different price levels.
Limitation 2: MACD values are not comparable across Assets
Traditional MACD cannot compare momentum between different assets.
S&P 500 MACD of 65 versus EUR/USD MACD of -0.5
reflects absolute price differences, not momentum differences
Limitation 3: MACD values cannot be Systematically Classified
Due to limitations #1 & #2, it is not possible to create
a momentum level classification scale
where one can define "fast", "slow", "overbought", "oversold" momentum
making systematic analysis impossible
Limitation 4: MACD Signal Line gives false crossovers in low-momentum ranges
In range-bound, low momentum environments,
most of the MACD signal line crossovers are false (noise)
Since there is no objective momentum classification system (limitation #3),
it is not possible to filter these signals out,
by avoiding them when momentum is low
Limitation 5: MACD Signal Line gives late crossovers in high momentum regimes.
Signal lag in strong trends not good at timing the turning point
— In high-momentum moves, MACD crossovers may come late.
Since there is no objective momentum classification system (limitation #3),
it is not possible to filter these signals out,
by avoiding them when momentum is high
===================================================================
===================================================================
🏆 5. MACD-v : THE SOLUTION TO THE LIMITATIONS OF THE MACD , RSI, etc
====================================================================
MACD-v is a volatility normalised momentum indicator.
It remedies these 5 limitations of the classic MACD,
while creating a tool with unique properties.
Formula: × 100
MACD-V enhances the classic MACD by normalizing for volatility,
transforming price-dependent readings into standardized momentum values.
This resolves key limitations of traditional MACD and adds significant analytical power.
Core Advantages of MACD-V
Advantage 1: Time-Based Stability
MACD-V values are consistent and comparable over time.
A reading of 100 has the same meaning today as it did in the past
(unlike traditional MACD which is influenced by changes in price and volatility over time)
Advantage 2: Cross-Market Comparability
MACD-V provides universal scaling.
Readings (e.g., ±50) apply consistently across all asset classes—stocks,
bonds, commodities, or currencies,
allowing traders to compare momentum across markets reliably.
Advantage 3: Objective Momentum Classification
MACD-V includes a defined 5-range momentum lifecycle
with standardized thresholds (e.g., -150 to +150).
This offers an objective framework for analyzing market conditions
and supports integration with broader models.
Advantage 4: False Signal Reduction in Low-Momentum Regimes
MACD-V introduces a "neutral zone" (typically -50 to +50)
to filter out these low-probability signals.
Advantage 5: Improved Signal Timing in High-Momentum Regimes
MACD-V identifies extremely strong trends,
allowing for more precise entry and exit points.
Advantage 6: Trend-Adaptive Scaling
Unlike bounded oscillators like RSI or Stochastic,
MACD-V dynamically expands with trend strength,
providing clearer momentum insights without artificial limits.
Advantage 7: Enhanced Divergence Detection
MACD-V offers more reliable divergence signals
by avoiding distortion at extreme levels,
a common flaw in bounded indicators (RSI, etc)
====================================================================
=======================================
⚒️ 5. HOW TO USE THE MACD-v: 7 CORE PATTERNS
HOW TO USE THE MACD-v Histogram: 2 CORE PATTERNS
=======================================
>>>>>> BASIC USE (RANGE RULES) <<<<<<
The MACD-v has 7 Core Patterns (Ranges) :
1. Risk Range (Overbought)
Condition: MACD-V > Signal Line and MACD-V > +150
Interpretation: Extremely strong bullish momentum—potential exhaustion or reversal zone.
2. Retracing
Condition: MACD-V < Signal Line and MACD-V > -50
Interpretation: Mild pullback within a bullish trend.
3. Rundown
Condition: MACD-V < Signal Line and -50 > MACD-V > -150
Interpretation: Momentum is weakening—bearish pressure building.
4. Risk Range (Oversold)
Condition: MACD-V < Signal Line and MACD-V < -150
Interpretation: Extreme bearish momentum—potential for reversal or capitulation.
5. Rebounding
Condition: MACD-V > Signal Line and MACD-V > -150
Interpretation: Bullish recovery from oversold or weak conditions.
6. Rallying
Condition: MACD-V > Signal Line and MACD-V > +50
Interpretation: Strengthening bullish trend—momentum accelerating.
7. Ranging (Neutral Zone)
Condition: MACD-V remains between -50 and +50 for 20+ bars
Interpretation: Sideways market—low conviction and momentum.
The MACD-v Histogram has 2 Core Patterns (Ranges) :
1. Risk (Overbought)
Condition: Histogram > +40
Interpretation: Short-term bullish momentum is stretched—possible overextension or reversal risk.
2. Risk (Oversold)
Condition: Histogram < -40
Interpretation: Short-term bearish momentum is stretched—potential for rebound or reversal.
=======================================
=======================================
📈 6. ADVANCED PATTERNS WITH MACD-v
=======================================
Thanks to its volatility normalization,
the MACD-V framework enables the development
of a wide range of advanced pattern recognition setups,
trading signals, and strategic models.
These patterns go beyond basic crossovers,

BTC Confluence Score + Confirmed Signals (12m/1h)This script combines 7 different signals across multiple timeframes (12 min + 1 hour + BTC dominance), then only gives you a BUY or SELL when everything aligns.
It’s designed to filter out fake-outs and help you catch momentum reversals that stick.
WHAT IT’S DOING UNDER THE HOOD
Timeframes
12 min (fast) → short-term trigger (RSI, Stoch RSI, volatility)
1 hour (slow) → trend confirmation (EMA structure, RSI, MACD)
BTC Dominance (1 h) → strength/flow confirmation (is capital rotating into BTC or alts?)
This gives you a multi-timeframe confluence, which is what professional traders look for before entering a trade.
2. The 7 “Score” Ingredients
Each bar gets a “score” from –7 (super bearish) to +7 (super bullish) based on:
# Condition Bullish signal (+1) Bearish signal (–1)
1 RSI (12m) RSI > 50 RSI < 50
2 RSI (1h) RSI > 50 RSI < 50
3 MACD Histogram > 0 Histogram < 0
4 BTC Dominance level > 59.8 % < 59.8 %
5 BTC Dominance trend 3 EMA > 8 EMA 3 EMA < 8 EMA
6 1h EMAs trend 50 EMA > 200 EMA and price > 50 EMA 50 EMA < 200 EMA and price < 50 EMA
7 Volatility (ATR) Current ATR > average (momentum increasing) —
The Confluence Score bar at the bottom shows this numerically:
💚 +5 to +7 → Strong bullish conditions
❤️ –5 to –7 → Strong bearish conditions
🩶 Between –2 and +2 → Choppy / neutral
3️⃣ Confirmed Entry Logic (the clear triangles you see now)
You’ll now see only two real actionable markers:
✅ BUY (Green Triangle Up)
Triggered when:
Stoch RSI crosses upward on 12 min
RSI > 50 (momentum confirmation)
MACD histogram > 0 (trend shift)
Confluence score ≥ 4 (default threshold)
This means momentum + trend + structure + volume all agree on an upward move.
→ Ideal for going long or closing shorts.
🚨 SELL (Red Triangle Down)
Triggered when:
Stoch RSI crosses downward
RSI < 50
MACD histogram < 0
Confluence score ≥ 4 bearish
That’s your exit / short confirmation.
4️⃣ Color Bars (Score Strength)
At the bottom of the chart:
💚 Green Bars = full bullish confluence (+5 or more)
💛 Lime/Orange Bars = moderate bullish or early reversal
❤️ Red Bars = strong bearish confluence (–5 or less)
🩶 Gray Bars = chop/no edge
If you prefer visual simplicity, just use:
BUY = Green Triangle appears on green bars
SELL = Red Triangle appears on red bars
That’s your “double confirmation.”
🎯 HOW TO TRADE IT

Ripster Labels + Air Gaps (v6)What it shows (on one chart)
EMA Clouds (current timeframe)
Plots EMA 8/12/21/34/50/200 with three cloud fills:
12–21 = “fast” cloud
34–50 = “mid” cloud
50–200 = “base” cloud
Cloud color: green when the faster EMA is above the slower (bullish), red/maroon/orange when below (bearish).
Toggle lines vs. clouds via A) EMA Clouds settings.
MTF Rails (higher-TF EMAs)
For three higher timeframes (defaults 30m / 60m / 240m), draws two EMAs each (defaults 34 & 50).
These are stepline-like rails you can visually use as higher-TF supports/resistances.
Configure in B) MTF Rails (turn on/off, change TFs/lengths/colors).
Relative Volume Box (RVol)
Small table (top-center) showing:
Candle Vol (formatted K/M/B if enabled)
RVol = current bar volume / SMA 20 of volume (as a %)
Color scale: blue (<100%), yellow (100–150%), red (>150%).
Settings in C) RVol Box.
DTR vs ATR Box
Daily True Range (DTR = day high − day low) vs ATR(14) on the daily timeframe, with DTR as % of ATR.
Placed at top-right; toggle in D) DTR/ATR Box.
Ripster Trend Label (10m 12/50)
Looks at a separate timeframe (default 10m): EMA 12 vs EMA 50.
Bottom-right table cell shows “10m Trend ↑/↓/Sideways” (green/red/gray).
Configure in E) Ripster Trend Labels (TF and lengths).
Air Gaps (single EMA per TF)
Three horizontal, auto-extending lines showing an EMA from 30m / 60m / 240m (default length 12).
“Air gaps” are the price spaces between these lines—often lighter-resistance zones for price.
Start point logic:
All Bars = draw from the chart’s left
Start of Day = draw from today’s first bar
Bars Offset = draw from N bars back (default 100)
Settings in F) Air Gaps (TFs, length, draw-from, bars-back).

How it makes decisions
Cloud bias = sign of (faster EMA − slower EMA) for each cloud pair.
Example: 12>21 → fast cloud is bullish (green); 34>50 → mid cloud bullish (teal).
10m trend label = sign of (EMA12−EMA50) on the Trend TF (default 10m).
RVol = volume / sma(volume, 20); formatted as a percent and color-coded.
Practical read of the screen
Fast cloud flips (12/21) often mark short-term momentum changes; mid cloud flips (34/50) reflect swing bias.
Air Gap lines from higher TFs frequently act as support/resistance. Larger spaces between lines = “air gaps” where price can move with less friction.
RVol color tells you how “real” a move is: red/yellow often confirms momentum; blue warns of thin/liquidy bars.
DTR vs ATR shows if today’s range is stretched vs recent norm.
Design choices (why your prior errors are gone)
Removed multiline ?: chains → replaced by if/else (Pine v6 is picky about line continuations).
Moved fill() calls outside of local if blocks (Pine limitation).
ta.change(time("D")) != 0 makes the if condition boolean.

[GrandAlgo] Moving Averages Cross LevelsMoving Averages Cross Levels
Many traders watch for moving average crossovers – such as the golden cross (50 MA crossing above 200 MA) or death cross – as signals of changing trends. However, once a crossover happens, the exact price level where it occurred often fades from view, even though that level can be an important reference point. Moving Averages Cross Levels is an indicator that keeps those crossover price levels visible on your chart, helping you track where momentum shifts occurred and how price behaves relative to those key levels.
This tool plots horizontal line segments at the price where each pair of selected moving averages crossed within a recent window of bars. Each level is labeled with the moving average lengths (for example, “21×50” for a 21/50 MA cross) and is color-coded – green for bullish crossovers (short-term MA crossing above long-term MA) and red for bearish crossunders (short-term crossing below). By visualizing these crossover levels, you can quickly identify past trend change points and use them as potential support/resistance or decision levels in your trading. Importantly, this indicator is non-repainting – once a crossover level is plotted, it remains fixed at the historical price where the cross occurred, allowing you to continually monitor that level going forward. (As with any moving average-based analysis, crossover signals are lagging, so use these levels in conjunction with other tools for confirmation.)
Key Features:
✅ Multiple Moving Averages: Track up to 7 different MAs (e.g. 5, 8, 21, 50, 64, 83, 200 by default) simultaneously. You can enable/disable each MA and set its length, allowing flexible combinations of short-term and long-term averages.
✅ Selectable MA Type: Each average can be calculated as a Simple (SMA), Exponential (EMA), Volume-Weighted (VWMA), or Smoothed (RMA) moving average, giving you flexibility to match your preferred method.
✅ Auto Crossover Detection: The script automatically detects all crosses between any enabled MA pairs, so you don’t have to specify pairs manually. Whether it’s a fast cross (5×8) or a long-term cross (50×200), every crossover within the lookback period will be identified and marked.
✅ Horizontal Level Markers: For each detected crossover, a horizontal line segment is drawn at the exact price where the crossover occurred. This makes it easy to glance at your chart and see precisely where two moving averages intersected in the recent past.
✅ Labeled and Color-Coded: Each crossover line is labeled with the two MA lengths that crossed (e.g. “50×200”) for clear identification. Colors indicate crossover direction – by default green for bullish (positive) crossovers and red for bearish (negative) crossovers – so you can tell at a glance which way the trend shifted. (You can customize these colors in the settings.)
✅ Adjustable Lookback: A “Crosses with X candles” input lets you control how far back the script looks for crossovers to plot. This prevents your chart from getting cluttered with too many old levels – for example, set X = 100 to show crossovers from roughly the last 100 bars. Older crossover lines beyond this lookback window will automatically clear off the chart.
✅ Optional MA Plots: You can toggle the display of each moving average line on the chart. This means you can either view just the crossover levels alone for a clean look, or also overlay the MA curves themselves for additional context (to see how price and MAs were moving around the crossover).
✅ No Repainting or Hindsight Bias: Once a crossover level is plotted, it stays at that fixed price. The indicator doesn’t move levels around after the fact – each line is a true historical event marker. This allows you to backtest visually: see how price acted after the crossover by observing if it retested or respected that level later.
How It Works:
1️⃣ Add to Chart & Configure – Simply add the indicator to your chart. In the settings, choose which moving averages you want to include and set their lengths. For example, you might enable 21, 50, 200 to focus on medium and long-term crosses (including the golden cross), or turn on shorter MAs like 5 and 8 for quick momentum shifts. Adjust the lookback (number of bars to scan for crosses) if needed.
2️⃣ Visualization – The script continuously checks the latest X bars for any points where one MA crossed above or below another. Whenever a crossover is found, it calculates the exact price level at which the two moving averages intersected. On the last bar of your chart, it will draw a horizontal line segment extending from the crossover bar to the current bar at that price level, and place a label to the right of the line with the MA lengths. Green lines/labels signify bullish crossovers (where the first MA crossed above the second), and red lines indicate bearish crossunders.
3️⃣ On Your Chart – You will see these labeled levels aligned with the price scale. For example, if a 50 MA crossed above a 200 MA (bullish) 50 bars ago at price $100, there will be a green “50×200” line at $100 extending to the present, showing you exactly where that golden cross happened. You might notice price pulling back near that level and bouncing, or if price falls back through it, it could signal a failed crossover. The indicator updates in real-time: if a new crossover happens on the latest bar, a new line and label will instantly appear, and if any old cross moves out of the lookback range, its line is removed to keep the chart focused.
4️⃣ Customization – You can fine-tune the appearance: toggle any MA’s visibility, change line colors or label styles, and modify the lookback length to suit different timeframes. For instance, on a 1-hour chart you might use a lookback of 500 bars to see a few weeks of cross history, whereas on a daily chart 100 bars (about 4–5 months) may be sufficient. Adjust these settings based on how many crossover levels you find useful to display.
Ideal for Traders Who:
Use MA Crossovers in Strategy: If your strategy involves moving average crossovers (for trend confirmation or entry/exit signals), this indicator provides an extra layer of insight by keeping the price of those crossover events in sight. For example, trend-followers can watch if price stays above a bullish crossover level as a sign of trend strength, or falls below it as a sign of weakness.
Identify Support/Resistance from MA Events: Crossover levels often coincide with pivot points in market sentiment. A crossover can act like a regime change – the level where it happened may turn into support or resistance. This tool helps you mark those potential S/R levels automatically. Rather than manually noting where a golden cross occurred, you’ll have it highlighted, which can be useful for setting stop-losses (e.g. below the crossover price in a bullish scenario) or profit targets.
Track Multiple Averages at Once: Instead of focusing on just one pair of moving averages, you might be interested in the interaction of several (short, medium, and long-term trends). This indicator caters to that by plotting all relevant crossovers among your chosen MAs. It’s great for multi-timeframe thinkers as well – e.g. you could apply it on a higher timeframe chart to mark major cross levels, then drill down to lower timeframes knowing those key prices.
Value Clean Visualization: There are no flashing signals or arrows – just simple lines and labels that enhance your chart’s storytelling. It’s ideal if you prefer to make trading decisions based on understanding price interaction with technical levels rather than following automatic trade calls. Moving Averages Cross Levels gives you information to act on, without imposing any bias or strategy – you interpret the crossover levels in the context of your own trading system.
Markov Chain [3D] | FractalystWhat exactly is a Markov Chain?
This indicator uses a Markov Chain model to analyze, quantify, and visualize the transitions between market regimes (Bull, Bear, Neutral) on your chart. It dynamically detects these regimes in real-time, calculates transition probabilities, and displays them as animated 3D spheres and arrows, giving traders intuitive insight into current and future market conditions.
How does a Markov Chain work, and how should I read this spheres-and-arrows diagram?
Think of three weather modes: Sunny, Rainy, Cloudy.
Each sphere is one mode. The loop on a sphere means “stay the same next step” (e.g., Sunny again tomorrow).
The arrows leaving a sphere show where things usually go next if they change (e.g., Sunny moving to Cloudy).
Some paths matter more than others. A more prominent loop means the current mode tends to persist. A more prominent outgoing arrow means a change to that destination is the usual next step.
Direction isn’t symmetric: moving Sunny→Cloudy can behave differently than Cloudy→Sunny.
Now relabel the spheres to markets: Bull, Bear, Neutral.
Spheres: market regimes (uptrend, downtrend, range).
Self‑loop: tendency for the current regime to continue on the next bar.
Arrows: the most common next regime if a switch happens.
How to read: Start at the sphere that matches current bar state. If the loop stands out, expect continuation. If one outgoing path stands out, that switch is the typical next step. Opposite directions can differ (Bear→Neutral doesn’t have to match Neutral→Bear).
What states and transitions are shown?
The three market states visualized are:
Bullish (Bull): Upward or strong-market regime.
Bearish (Bear): Downward or weak-market regime.
Neutral: Sideways or range-bound regime.
Bidirectional animated arrows and probability labels show how likely the market is to move from one regime to another (e.g., Bull → Bear or Neutral → Bull).
How does the regime detection system work?
You can use either built-in price returns (based on adaptive Z-score normalization) or supply three custom indicators (such as volume, oscillators, etc.).
Values are statistically normalized (Z-scored) over a configurable lookback period.
The normalized outputs are classified into Bull, Bear, or Neutral zones.
If using three indicators, their regime signals are averaged and smoothed for robustness.
How are transition probabilities calculated?
On every confirmed bar, the algorithm tracks the sequence of detected market states, then builds a rolling window of transitions.
The code maintains a transition count matrix for all regime pairs (e.g., Bull → Bear).
Transition probabilities are extracted for each possible state change using Laplace smoothing for numerical stability, and frequently updated in real-time.
What is unique about the visualization?
3D animated spheres represent each regime and change visually when active.
Animated, bidirectional arrows reveal transition probabilities and allow you to see both dominant and less likely regime flows.
Particles (moving dots) animate along the arrows, enhancing the perception of regime flow direction and speed.
All elements dynamically update with each new price bar, providing a live market map in an intuitive, engaging format.
Can I use custom indicators for regime classification?
Yes! Enable the "Custom Indicators" switch and select any three chart series as inputs. These will be normalized and combined (each with equal weight), broadening the regime classification beyond just price-based movement.
What does the “Lookback Period” control?
Lookback Period (default: 100) sets how much historical data builds the probability matrix. Shorter periods adapt faster to regime changes but may be noisier. Longer periods are more stable but slower to adapt.
How is this different from a Hidden Markov Model (HMM)?
It sets the window for both regime detection and probability calculations. Lower values make the system more reactive, but potentially noisier. Higher values smooth estimates and make the system more robust.
How is this Markov Chain different from a Hidden Markov Model (HMM)?
Markov Chain (as here): All market regimes (Bull, Bear, Neutral) are directly observable on the chart. The transition matrix is built from actual detected regimes, keeping the model simple and interpretable.
Hidden Markov Model: The actual regimes are unobservable ("hidden") and must be inferred from market output or indicator "emissions" using statistical learning algorithms. HMMs are more complex, can capture more subtle structure, but are harder to visualize and require additional machine learning steps for training.
A standard Markov Chain models transitions between observable states using a simple transition matrix, while a Hidden Markov Model assumes the true states are hidden (latent) and must be inferred from observable “emissions” like price or volume data. In practical terms, a Markov Chain is transparent and easier to implement and interpret; an HMM is more expressive but requires statistical inference to estimate hidden states from data.
Markov Chain: states are observable; you directly count or estimate transition probabilities between visible states. This makes it simpler, faster, and easier to validate and tune.
HMM: states are hidden; you only observe emissions generated by those latent states. Learning involves machine learning/statistical algorithms (commonly Baum–Welch/EM for training and Viterbi for decoding) to infer both the transition dynamics and the most likely hidden state sequence from data.
How does the indicator avoid “repainting” or look-ahead bias?
All regime changes and matrix updates happen only on confirmed (closed) bars, so no future data is leaked, ensuring reliable real-time operation.
Are there practical tuning tips?
Tune the Lookback Period for your asset/timeframe: shorter for fast markets, longer for stability.
Use custom indicators if your asset has unique regime drivers.
Watch for rapid changes in transition probabilities as early warning of a possible regime shift.
Who is this indicator for?
Quants and quantitative researchers exploring probabilistic market modeling, especially those interested in regime-switching dynamics and Markov models.
Programmers and system developers who need a probabilistic regime filter for systematic and algorithmic backtesting:
The Markov Chain indicator is ideally suited for programmatic integration via its bias output (1 = Bull, 0 = Neutral, -1 = Bear).
Although the visualization is engaging, the core output is designed for automated, rules-based workflows—not for discretionary/manual trading decisions.
Developers can connect the indicator’s output directly to their Pine Script logic (using input.source()), allowing rapid and robust backtesting of regime-based strategies.
It acts as a plug-and-play regime filter: simply plug the bias output into your entry/exit logic, and you have a scientifically robust, probabilistically-derived signal for filtering, timing, position sizing, or risk regimes.
The MC's output is intentionally "trinary" (1/0/-1), focusing on clear regime states for unambiguous decision-making in code. If you require nuanced, multi-probability or soft-label state vectors, consider expanding the indicator or stacking it with a probability-weighted logic layer in your scripting.
Because it avoids subjectivity, this approach is optimal for systematic quants, algo developers building backtested, repeatable strategies based on probabilistic regime analysis.
What's the mathematical foundation behind this?
The mathematical foundation behind this Markov Chain indicator—and probabilistic regime detection in finance—draws from two principal models: the (standard) Markov Chain and the Hidden Markov Model (HMM).
How to use this indicator programmatically?
The Markov Chain indicator automatically exports a bias value (+1 for Bullish, -1 for Bearish, 0 for Neutral) as a plot visible in the Data Window. This allows you to integrate its regime signal into your own scripts and strategies for backtesting, automation, or live trading.
Step-by-Step Integration with Pine Script (input.source)
Add the Markov Chain indicator to your chart.
This must be done first, since your custom script will "pull" the bias signal from the indicator's plot.
In your strategy, create an input using input.source()
Example:
//@version=5
strategy("MC Bias Strategy Example")
mcBias = input.source(close, "MC Bias Source")
After saving, go to your script’s settings. For the “MC Bias Source” input, select the plot/output of the Markov Chain indicator (typically its bias plot).
Use the bias in your trading logic
Example (long only on Bull, flat otherwise):
if mcBias == 1
strategy.entry("Long", strategy.long)
else
strategy.close("Long")
For more advanced workflows, combine mcBias with additional filters or trailing stops.
How does this work behind-the-scenes?
TradingView’s input.source() lets you use any plot from another indicator as a real-time, “live” data feed in your own script (source).
The selected bias signal is available to your Pine code as a variable, enabling logical decisions based on regime (trend-following, mean-reversion, etc.).
This enables powerful strategy modularity : decouple regime detection from entry/exit logic, allowing fast experimentation without rewriting core signal code.

This makes it the perfect “indicator backbone” for quantitative and systematic traders who want to prototype, combine, and test new regime detection models—especially in combination with the Markov Chain indicator.
How to use this script with the Markov Chain for research and backtesting:
Add the Enhanced Indicator Export to your chart.
Every calculated indicator is available as an individual data stream.
Connect the indicator(s) you want as custom input(s) to the Markov Chain’s “Custom Indicators” option.
In the Markov Chain indicator’s settings, turn ON the custom indicator mode.
For each of the three custom indicator inputs, select the exported plot from the Enhanced Export script—the menu lists all 45+ signals by name.
This creates a powerful, modular regime-detection engine where you can mix-and-match momentum, trend, volume, or custom combinations for advanced filtering.
Backtest regime logic directly.
Once you’ve connected your chosen indicators, the Markov Chain script performs regime detection (Bull/Neutral/Bear) based on your selected features—not just price returns.
The regime detection is robust, automatically normalized (using Z-score), and outputs bias (1, -1, 0) for plug-and-play integration.
Export the regime bias for programmatic use.
As described above, use input.source() in your Pine Script strategy or system and link the bias output.
You can now filter signals, control trade direction/size, or design pairs-trading that respect true, indicator-driven market regimes.
With this framework, you’re not limited to static or simplistic regime filters. You can rigorously define, test, and refine what “market regime” means for your strategies—using the technical features that matter most to you.
Optimize your signal generation by backtesting across a universe of meaningful indicator blends.
Enhance risk management with objective, real-time regime boundaries.
Accelerate your research: iterate quickly, swap indicator components, and see results with minimal code changes.
Automate multi-asset or pairs-trading by integrating regime context directly into strategy logic.
Add both scripts to your chart, connect your preferred features, and start investigating your best regime-based trades—entirely within the TradingView ecosystem.

What makes this indicator original and unique?
- On‑chart, real‑time Markov. The chain is drawn directly on your chart. You see the current regime, its tendency to stay (self‑loop), and the usual next step (arrows) as bars confirm.
- Source‑agnostic by design. The engine runs on any series you select via input.source() — price, your own oscillator, a composite score, anything you compute in the script.
- Automatic normalization + regime mapping. Different inputs live on different scales. The script standardizes your chosen source and maps it into clear regimes (e.g., Bull / Bear / Neutral) without you micromanaging thresholds each time.
- Rolling, bar‑by‑bar learning. Transition tendencies are computed from a rolling window of confirmed bars. What you see is exactly what the market did in that window.
- Fast experimentation. Switch the source, adjust the window, and the Markov view updates instantly. It’s a rapid way to test ideas and feel regime persistence/switch behavior.
Integrate your own signals (using input.source())
- In settings, choose the Source . This is powered by input.source() .
- Feed it price, an indicator you compute inside the script, or a custom composite series.
- The script will automatically normalize that series and process it through the Markov engine, mapping it to regimes and updating the on‑chart spheres/arrows in real time.

THF Crossover and Trend Signals Golden & Death Cross with VolumeScript Overview:
This Pine Script is designed to assist traders in identifying key buy/sell signals and major trend changes on the chart using Exponential Moving Averages (EMA) and Simple Moving Averages (SMA), as well as visualizing Golden Cross and Death Cross events. The script also includes a volume indicator to highlight the volume trading activity in relation to the price movements.
Key Features:
1. Moving Averages:
EMA 21: Exponential Moving Average over a 21-period, shown in green.
EMA 50: Exponential Moving Average over a 50-period, shown in yellow.
SMA 50: Simple Moving Average over a 50-period, shown in red.
SMA 200: Simple Moving Average over a 200-period, shown in blue.
2. Signals:
Buy Signal: Generated when EMA 21 crosses above SMA 50, indicating a potential upward trend. Displayed with a green label below the price bar.
Sell Signal: Generated when EMA 21 crosses below SMA 50, indicating a potential downward trend. Displayed with a red label above the price bar.
3. Golden Cross (Bullish Trend):
A Golden Cross occurs when EMA 50 crosses above SMA 200, which often signals the start of a long-term upward trend. The signal is displayed with a yellow label below the price bar.
4. Death Cross (Bearish Trend):
A Death Cross occurs when EMA 50 crosses below SMA 200, which often signals the start of a long-term downward trend. The signal is displayed with a blue label above the price bar.
5. Volume Indicator:
The volume is plotted as colored columns. Green indicates higher volume than the 20-period moving average, and red indicates lower volume.
A Volume Moving Average (SMA 20) is also plotted to compare volume changes over time.
How the Script Works:
1. The EMA and SMA lines are plotted on the chart, providing a visual representation of the short- and long-term trends.
2. Buy/Sell signals are triggered based on the crossover between EMA 21 and SMA 50, helping to identify potential entry and exit points.
3. The Golden Cross and Death Cross indicators highlight major trend reversals based on the crossover between EMA 50 and SMA 200, providing clear visual cues for long-term trend changes.
4. Volume is displayed alongside price movements, offering insight into the strength or weakness of a trend.
Key Customizations:
Moving Average Periods: Users can modify the lengths of the EMAs and SMAs for customized analysis.
Volume Moving Average Period: The script allows for adjustment of the volume moving average period to suit different market conditions.
Signal Visibility: The size and color of the buy, sell, Golden Cross, and Death Cross signals can be easily customized to make them more prominent on the chart.
Conclusion:
This script is ideal for traders looking to combine price action with volume analysis, using key technical indicators such as EMA, SMA, Golden Cross, and Death Cross to make informed decisions in trending markets.

Market Zone Analyzer[BullByte]Understanding the Market Zone Analyzer
---
1. Purpose of the Indicator
The Market Zone Analyzer is a Pine Script™ (version 6) indicator designed to streamline market analysis on TradingView. Rather than scanning multiple separate tools, it unifies four core dimensions—trend strength, momentum, price action, and market activity—into a single, consolidated view. By doing so, it helps traders:
• Save time by avoiding manual cross-referencing of disparate signals.
• Reduce decision-making errors that can arise from juggling multiple indicators.
• Gain a clear, reliable read on whether the market is in a bullish, bearish, or sideways phase, so they can more confidently decide to enter, exit, or hold a position.
---
2. Why a Trader Should Use It
• Unified View: Combines all essential market dimensions into one easy-to-read score and dashboard, eliminating the need to piece together signals manually.
• Adaptability: Automatically adjusts its internal weighting for trend, momentum, and price action based on current volatility. Whether markets are choppy or calm, the indicator remains relevant.
• Ease of Interpretation: Outputs a simple “BULLISH,” “BEARISH,” or “SIDEWAYS” label, supplemented by an intuitive on-chart dashboard and an oscillator plot that visually highlights market direction.
• Reliability Features: Built-in smoothing of the net score and hysteresis logic (requiring consecutive confirmations before flips) minimize false signals during noisy or range-bound phases.
---
3. Why These Specific Indicators?
This script relies on a curated set of well-established technical tools, each chosen for its particular strength in measuring one of the four core dimensions:
1. Trend Strength:
• ADX/DMI (Average Directional Index / Directional Movement Index): Measures how strong a trend is, and whether the +DI line is above the –DI line (bullish) or vice versa (bearish).
• Moving Average Slope (Fast MA vs. Slow MA): Compares a shorter-period SMA to a longer-period SMA; if the fast MA sits above the slow MA, it confirms an uptrend, and vice versa for a downtrend.
• Ichimoku Cloud Differential (Senkou A vs. Senkou B): Provides a forward-looking view of trend direction; Senkou A above Senkou B signals bullishness, and the opposite signals bearishness.
2. Momentum:
• Relative Strength Index (RSI): Identifies overbought (above its dynamically calculated upper bound) or oversold (below its lower bound) conditions; changes in RSI often precede price reversals.
• Stochastic %K: Highlights shifts in short-term momentum by comparing closing price to the recent high/low range; values above its upper band signal bullish momentum, below its lower band signal bearish momentum.
• MACD Histogram: Measures the difference between the MACD line and its signal line; a positive histogram indicates upward momentum, a negative histogram indicates downward momentum.
3. Price Action:
• Highest High / Lowest Low (HH/LL) Range: Over a defined lookback period, this captures breakout or breakdown levels. A closing price near the recent highs (with a positive MA slope) yields a bullish score, and near the lows (with a negative MA slope) yields a bearish score.
• Heikin-Ashi Doji Detection: Uses Heikin-Ashi candles to identify indecision or continuation patterns. A small Heikin-Ashi body (doji) relative to recent volatility is scored as neutral; a larger body in the direction of the MA slope is scored bullish or bearish.
• Candle Range Measurement: Compares each candle’s high-low range against its own dynamic band (average range ± standard deviation). Large candles aligning with the prevailing trend score bullish or bearish accordingly; unusually small candles can indicate exhaustion or consolidation.
4. Market Activity:
• Bollinger Bands Width (BBW): Measures the distance between BB upper and lower bands; wide bands indicate high volatility, narrow bands indicate low volatility.
• Average True Range (ATR): Quantifies average price movement (volatility). A sudden spike in ATR suggests a volatile environment, while a contraction suggests calm.
• Keltner Channels Width (KCW): Similar to BBW but uses ATR around an EMA. Provides a second layer of volatility context, confirming or contrasting BBW readings.
• Volume (with Moving Average): Compares current volume to its moving average ± standard deviation. High volume validates strong moves; low volume signals potential lack of conviction.
By combining these tools, the indicator captures trend direction, momentum strength, price-action nuances, and overall market energy, yielding a more balanced and comprehensive assessment than any single tool alone.
---
4. What Makes This Indicator Stand Out
• Multi-Dimensional Analysis: Rather than relying on a lone oscillator or moving average crossover, it simultaneously evaluates trend, momentum, price action, and activity.
• Dynamic Weighting: The relative importance of trend, momentum, and price action adjusts automatically based on real-time volatility (Market Activity State). For example, in highly volatile conditions, trend and momentum signals carry more weight; in calm markets, price action signals are prioritized.
• Stability Mechanisms:
• Smoothing: The net score is passed through a short moving average, filtering out noise, especially on lower timeframes.
• Hysteresis: Both Market Activity State and the final bullish/bearish/sideways zone require two consecutive confirmations before flipping, reducing whipsaw.
• Visual Interpretation: A fully customizable on-chart dashboard displays each sub-indicator’s value, regime, score, and comment, all color-coded. The oscillator plot changes color to reflect the current market zone (green for bullish, red for bearish, gray for sideways) and shows horizontal threshold lines at +2, 0, and –2.
---
5. Recommended Timeframes
• Short-Term (5 min, 15 min): Day traders and scalpers can benefit from rapid signals, but should enable smoothing (and possibly disable hysteresis) to reduce false whipsaws.
• Medium-Term (1 h, 4 h): Swing traders find a balance between responsiveness and reliability. Less smoothing is required here, and the default parameters (e.g., ADX length = 14, RSI length = 14) perform well.
• Long-Term (Daily, Weekly): Position traders tracking major trends can disable smoothing for immediate raw readings, since higher-timeframe noise is minimal. Adjust lookback lengths (e.g., increase adxLength, rsiLength) if desired for slower signals.
Tip: If you keep smoothing off, stick to timeframes of 1 h or higher to avoid excessive signal “chatter.”
---
6. How Scoring Works
A. Individual Indicator Scores
Each sub-indicator is assigned one of three discrete scores:
• +1 if it indicates a bullish condition (e.g., RSI above its dynamically calculated upper bound).
• 0 if it is neutral (e.g., RSI between upper and lower bounds).
• –1 if it indicates a bearish condition (e.g., RSI below its dynamically calculated lower bound).
Examples of individual score assignments:
• ADX/DMI:
• +1 if ADX ≥ adxThreshold and +DI > –DI (strong bullish trend)
• –1 if ADX ≥ adxThreshold and –DI > +DI (strong bearish trend)
• 0 if ADX < adxThreshold (trend strength below threshold)
• RSI:
• +1 if RSI > RSI_upperBound
• –1 if RSI < RSI_lowerBound
• 0 otherwise
• ATR (as part of Market Activity):
• +1 if ATR > (ATR_MA + stdev(ATR))
• –1 if ATR < (ATR_MA – stdev(ATR))
• 0 otherwise
Each of the four main categories shares this same +1/0/–1 logic across their sub-components.
B. Category Scores
Once each sub-indicator reports +1, 0, or –1, these are summed within their categories as follows:
• Trend Score = (ADX score) + (MA slope score) + (Ichimoku differential score)
• Momentum Score = (RSI score) + (Stochastic %K score) + (MACD histogram score)
• Price Action Score = (Highest-High/Lowest-Low score) + (Heikin-Ashi doji score) + (Candle range score)
• Market Activity Raw Score = (BBW score) + (ATR score) + (KC width score) + (Volume score)
Each category’s summed value can range between –3 and +3 (for Trend, Momentum, and Price Action), and between –4 and +4 for Market Activity raw.
C. Market Activity State and Dynamic Weight Adjustments
Rather than contributing directly to the netScore like the other three categories, Market Activity determines how much weight to assign to Trend, Momentum, and Price Action:
1. Compute Market Activity Raw Score by summing BBW, ATR, KCW, and Volume individual scores (each +1/0/–1).
2. Bucket into High, Medium, or Low Activity:
• High if raw Score ≥ 2 (volatile market).
• Low if raw Score ≤ –2 (calm market).
• Medium otherwise.
3. Apply Hysteresis (if enabled): The state only flips after two consecutive bars register the same high/low/medium label.
4. Set Category Weights:
• High Activity: Trend = 50 %, Momentum = 35 %, Price Action = 15 %.
• Low Activity: Trend = 25 %, Momentum = 20 %, Price Action = 55 %.
• Medium Activity: Use the trader’s base weight inputs (e.g., Trend = 40 %, Momentum = 30 %, Price Action = 30 % by default).
D. Calculating the Net Score
5. Normalize Base Weights (so that the sum of Trend + Momentum + Price Action always equals 100 %).
6. Determine Current Weights based on the Market Activity State (High/Medium/Low).
7. Compute Each Category’s Contribution: Multiply (categoryScore) × (currentWeight).
8. Sum Contributions to get the raw netScore (a floating-point value that can exceed ±3 when scores are strong).
9. Smooth the netScore over two bars (if smoothing is enabled) to reduce noise.
10. Apply Hysteresis to the Final Zone:
• If the smoothed netScore ≥ +2, the bar is classified as “Bullish.”
• If the smoothed netScore ≤ –2, the bar is classified as “Bearish.”
• Otherwise, it is “Sideways.”
• To prevent rapid flips, the script requires two consecutive bars in the new zone before officially changing the displayed zone (if hysteresis is on).
E. Thresholds for Zone Classification
• BULLISH: netScore ≥ +2
• BEARISH: netScore ≤ –2
• SIDEWAYS: –2 < netScore < +2
---
7. Role of Volatility (Market Activity State) in Scoring
Volatility acts as a dynamic switch that shifts which category carries the most influence:
1. High Activity (Volatile):
• Detected when at least two sub-scores out of BBW, ATR, KCW, and Volume equal +1.
• The script sets Trend weight = 50 % and Momentum weight = 35 %. Price Action weight is minimized at 15 %.
• Rationale: In volatile markets, strong trending moves and momentum surges dominate, so those signals are more reliable than nuanced candle patterns.
2. Low Activity (Calm):
• Detected when at least two sub-scores out of BBW, ATR, KCW, and Volume equal –1.
• The script sets Price Action weight = 55 %, Trend = 25 %, and Momentum = 20 %.
• Rationale: In quiet, sideways markets, subtle price-action signals (breakouts, doji patterns, small-range candles) are often the best early indicators of a new move.
3. Medium Activity (Balanced):
• Raw Score between –1 and +1 from the four volatility metrics.
• Uses whatever base weights the trader has specified (e.g., Trend = 40 %, Momentum = 30 %, Price Action = 30 %).
Because volatility can fluctuate rapidly, the script employs hysteresis on Market Activity State: a new High or Low state must occur on two consecutive bars before weights actually shift. This avoids constant back-and-forth weight changes and provides more stability.
---
8. Scoring Example (Hypothetical Scenario)
• Symbol: Bitcoin on a 1-hour chart.
• Market Activity: Raw volatility sub-scores show BBW (+1), ATR (+1), KCW (0), Volume (+1) → Total raw Score = +3 → High Activity.
• Weights Selected: Trend = 50 %, Momentum = 35 %, Price Action = 15 %.
• Trend Signals:
• ADX strong and +DI > –DI → +1
• Fast MA above Slow MA → +1
• Ichimoku Senkou A > Senkou B → +1
→ Trend Score = +3
• Momentum Signals:
• RSI above upper bound → +1
• MACD histogram positive → +1
• Stochastic %K within neutral zone → 0
→ Momentum Score = +2
• Price Action Signals:
• Highest High/Lowest Low check yields 0 (close not near extremes)
• Heikin-Ashi doji reading is neutral → 0
• Candle range slightly above upper bound but trend is strong, so → +1
→ Price Action Score = +1
• Compute Net Score (before smoothing):
• Trend contribution = 3 × 0.50 = 1.50
• Momentum contribution = 2 × 0.35 = 0.70
• Price Action contribution = 1 × 0.15 = 0.15
• Raw netScore = 1.50 + 0.70 + 0.15 = 2.35
• Since 2.35 ≥ +2 and hysteresis is met, the final zone is “Bullish.”
Although the netScore lands at 2.35 (Bullish), smoothing might bring it slightly below 2.00 on the first bar (e.g., 1.90), in which case the script would wait for a second consecutive reading above +2 before officially classifying the zone as Bullish (if hysteresis is enabled).
---
9. Correlation Between Categories
The four categories—Trend Strength, Momentum, Price Action, and Market Activity—often reinforce or offset one another. The script takes advantage of these natural correlations:
• Bullish Alignment: If ADX is strong and pointed upward, fast MA is above slow MA, and Ichimoku is positive, that usually coincides with RSI climbing above its upper bound and the MACD histogram turning positive. In such cases, both Trend and Momentum categories generate +1 or +2. Because the Market Activity State is likely High (given the accompanying volatility), Trend and Momentum weights are at their peak, so the netScore quickly crosses into Bullish territory.
• Sideways/Consolidation: During a low-volatility, sideways phase, ADX may fall below its threshold, MAs may flatten, and RSI might hover in the neutral band. However, subtle price-action signals (like a small breakout candle or a Heikin-Ashi candle with a slight bias) can still produce a +1 in the Price Action category. If Market Activity is Low, Price Action’s weight (55 %) can carry enough influence—even if Trend and Momentum are neutral—to push the netScore out of “Sideways” into a mild bullish or bearish bias.
• Opposing Signals: When Trend is bullish but Momentum turns negative (for example, price continues up but RSI rolls over), the two scores can partially cancel. Market Activity may remain Medium, in which case the netScore lingers near zero (Sideways). The trader can then wait for either a clearer momentum shift or a fresh price-action breakout before committing.
By dynamically recognizing these correlations and adjusting weights, the indicator ensures that:
• When Trend and Momentum align (and volatility supports it), the netScore leaps strongly into Bullish or Bearish.
• When Trend is neutral but Price Action shows an early move in a low-volatility environment, Price Action’s extra weight in the Low Activity State can still produce actionable signals.
---
10. Market Activity State & Its Role (Detailed)
The Market Activity State is not a direct category score—it is an overarching context setter for how heavily to trust Trend, Momentum, or Price Action. Here’s how it is derived and applied:
1. Calculate Four Volatility Sub-Scores:
• BBW: Compare the current band width to its own moving average ± standard deviation. If BBW > (BBW_MA + stdev), assign +1 (high volatility); if BBW < (BBW_MA × 0.5), assign –1 (low volatility); else 0.
• ATR: Compare ATR to its moving average ± standard deviation. A spike above the upper threshold is +1; a contraction below the lower threshold is –1; otherwise 0.
• KCW: Same logic as ATR but around the KCW mean.
• Volume: Compare current volume to its volume MA ± standard deviation. Above the upper threshold is +1; below the lower threshold is –1; else 0.
2. Sum Sub-Scores → Raw Market Activity Score: Range between –4 and +4.
3. Assign Market Activity State:
• High Activity: Raw Score ≥ +2 (at least two volatility metrics are strongly spiking).
• Low Activity: Raw Score ≤ –2 (at least two metrics signal unusually low volatility or thin volume).
• Medium Activity: Raw Score is between –1 and +1 inclusive.
4. Hysteresis for Stability:
• If hysteresis is enabled, a new state only takes hold after two consecutive bars confirm the same High, Medium, or Low label.
• This prevents the Market Activity State from bouncing around when volatility is on the fence.
5. Set Category Weights Based on Activity State:
• High Activity: Trend = 50 %, Momentum = 35 %, Price Action = 15 %.
• Low Activity: Trend = 25 %, Momentum = 20 %, Price Action = 55 %.
• Medium Activity: Use trader’s base weights (e.g., Trend = 40 %, Momentum = 30 %, Price Action = 30 %).
6. Impact on netScore: Because category scores (–3 to +3) multiply by these weights, High Activity amplifies the effect of strong Trend and Momentum scores; Low Activity amplifies the effect of Price Action.
7. Market Context Tooltip: The dashboard includes a tooltip summarizing the current state—e.g., “High activity, trend and momentum prioritized,” “Low activity, price action prioritized,” or “Balanced market, all categories considered.”
---
11. Category Weights: Base vs. Dynamic
Traders begin by specifying base weights for Trend Strength, Momentum, and Price Action that sum to 100 %. These apply only when volatility is in the Medium band. Once volatility shifts:
• High Volatility Overrides:
• Trend jumps from its base (e.g., 40 %) to 50 %.
• Momentum jumps from its base (e.g., 30 %) to 35 %.
• Price Action is reduced to 15 %.
Example: If base weights were Trend = 40 %, Momentum = 30 %, Price Action = 30 %, then in High Activity they become 50/35/15. A Trend score of +3 now contributes 3 × 0.50 = +1.50 to netScore; a Momentum +2 contributes 2 × 0.35 = +0.70. In total, Trend + Momentum can easily push netScore above the +2 threshold on its own.
• Low Volatility Overrides:
• Price Action leaps from its base (30 %) to 55 %.
• Trend falls to 25 %, Momentum falls to 20 %.
Why? When markets are quiet, subtle candle breakouts, doji patterns, and small-range expansions tend to foreshadow the next swing more effectively than raw trend readings. A Price Action score of +3 in this state contributes 3 × 0.55 = +1.65, which can carry the netScore toward +2—even if Trend and Momentum are neutral or only mildly positive.
Because these weight shifts happen only after two consecutive bars confirm a High or Low state (if hysteresis is on), the indicator avoids constantly flipping its emphasis during borderline volatility phases.
---
12. Dominant Category Explained
Within the dashboard, a label such as “Trend Dominant,” “Momentum Dominant,” or “Price Action Dominant” appears when one category’s absolute weighted contribution to netScore is the largest. Concretely:
• Compute each category’s weighted contribution = (raw category score) × (current weight).
• Compare the absolute values of those three contributions.
• The category with the highest absolute value is flagged as Dominant for that bar.
Why It Matters:
• Momentum Dominant: Indicates that the combined force of RSI, Stochastic, and MACD (after weighting) is pushing netScore farther than either Trend or Price Action. In practice, it means that short-term sentiment and speed of change are the primary drivers right now, so traders should watch for continued momentum signals before committing to a trade.
• Trend Dominant: Means ADX, MA slope, and Ichimoku (once weighted) outweigh the other categories. This suggests a strong directional move is in place; trend-following entries or confirming pullbacks are likely to succeed.
• Price Action Dominant: Occurs when breakout/breakdown patterns, Heikin-Ashi candle readings, and range expansions (after weighting) are the most influential. This often happens in calmer markets, where subtle shifts in candle structure can foreshadow bigger moves.
By explicitly calling out which category is carrying the most weight at any moment, the dashboard gives traders immediate insight into why the netScore is tilting toward bullish, bearish, or sideways.
---
13. Oscillator Plot: How to Read It
The “Net Score” oscillator sits below the dashboard and visually displays the smoothed netScore as a line graph. Key features:
1. Value Range: In normal conditions it oscillates roughly between –3 and +3, but extreme confluences can push it outside that range.
2. Horizontal Threshold Lines:
• +2 Line (Bullish threshold)
• 0 Line (Neutral midline)
• –2 Line (Bearish threshold)
3. Zone Coloring:
• Green Background (Bullish Zone): When netScore ≥ +2.
• Red Background (Bearish Zone): When netScore ≤ –2.
• Gray Background (Sideways Zone): When –2 < netScore < +2.
4. Dynamic Line Color:
• The plotted netScore line itself is colored green in a Bullish Zone, red in a Bearish Zone, or gray in a Sideways Zone, creating an immediate visual cue.
Interpretation Tips:
• Crossing Above +2: Signals a strong enough combined trend/momentum/price-action reading to classify as Bullish. Many traders wait for a clear crossing plus a confirmation candle before entering a long position.
• Crossing Below –2: Indicates a strong Bearish signal. Traders may consider short or exit strategies.
• Rising Slope, Even Below +2: If netScore climbs steadily from neutral toward +2, it demonstrates building bullish momentum.
• Divergence: If price makes a higher high but the oscillator fails to reach a new high, it can warn of weakening momentum and a potential reversal.
---
14. Comments and Their Necessity
Every sub-indicator (ADX, MA slope, Ichimoku, RSI, Stochastic, MACD, HH/LL, Heikin-Ashi, Candle Range, BBW, ATR, KCW, Volume) generates a short comment that appears in the detailed dashboard. Examples:
• “Strong bullish trend” or “Strong bearish trend” for ADX/DMI
• “Fast MA above slow MA” or “Fast MA below slow MA” for MA slope
• “RSI above dynamic threshold” or “RSI below dynamic threshold” for RSI
• “MACD histogram positive” or “MACD histogram negative” for MACD Hist
• “Price near highs” or “Price near lows” for HH/LL checks
• “Bullish Heikin Ashi” or “Bearish Heikin Ashi” for HA Doji scoring
• “Large range, trend confirmed” or “Small range, trend contradicted” for Candle Range
Additionally, the top-row comment for each category is:
• Trend: “Highly Bullish,” “Highly Bearish,” or “Neutral Trend.”
• Momentum: “Strong Momentum,” “Weak Momentum,” or “Neutral Momentum.”
• Price Action: “Bullish Action,” “Bearish Action,” or “Neutral Action.”
• Market Activity: “Volatile Market,” “Calm Market,” or “Stable Market.”
Reasons for These Comments:
• Transparency: Shows exactly how each sub-indicator contributed to its category score.
• Education: Helps traders learn why a category is labeled bullish, bearish, or neutral, building intuition over time.
• Customization: If, for example, the RSI comment says “RSI neutral” despite an impending trend shift, a trader might choose to adjust RSI length or thresholds.
In the detailed dashboard, hovering over each comment cell also reveals a tooltip with additional context (e.g., “Fast MA above slow MA” or “Senkou A above Senkou B”), helping traders understand the precise rule behind that +1, 0, or –1 assignment.
---
15. Real-Life Example (Consolidated)
• Instrument & Timeframe: Bitcoin (BTCUSD), 1-hour chart.
• Current Market Activity: BBW and ATR both spike (+1 each), KCW is moderately high (+1), but volume is only neutral (0) → Raw Market Activity Score = +2 → State = High Activity (after two bars, if hysteresis is on).
• Category Weights Applied: Trend = 50 %, Momentum = 35 %, Price Action = 15 %.
• Trend Sub-Scores:
1. ADX = 25 (above threshold 20) with +DI > –DI → +1.
2. Fast MA (20-period) sits above Slow MA (50-period) → +1.
3. Ichimoku: Senkou A > Senkou B → +1.
→ Trend Score = +3.
• Momentum Sub-Scores:
4. RSI = 75 (above its moving average +1 stdev) → +1.
5. MACD histogram = +0.15 → +1.
6. Stochastic %K = 50 (mid-range) → 0.
→ Momentum Score = +2.
• Price Action Sub-Scores:
7. Price is not within 1 % of the 20-period high/low and slope = positive → 0.
8. Heikin-Ashi body is slightly larger than stdev over last 5 bars with haClose > haOpen → +1.
9. Candle range is just above its dynamic upper bound but trend is already captured, so → +1.
→ Price Action Score = +2.
• Calculate netScore (before smoothing):
• Trend contribution = 3 × 0.50 = 1.50
• Momentum contribution = 2 × 0.35 = 0.70
• Price Action contribution = 2 × 0.15 = 0.30
• Raw netScore = 1.50 + 0.70 + 0.30 = 2.50 → Immediately classified as Bullish.
• Oscillator & Dashboard Output:
• The oscillator line crosses above +2 and turns green.
• Dashboard displays:
• Trend Regime “BULLISH,” Trend Score = 3, Comment = “Highly Bullish.”
• Momentum Regime “BULLISH,” Momentum Score = 2, Comment = “Strong Momentum.”
• Price Action Regime “BULLISH,” Price Action Score = 2, Comment = “Bullish Action.”
• Market Activity State “High,” Comment = “Volatile Market.”
• Weights: Trend 50 %, Momentum 35 %, Price Action 15 %.
• Dominant Category: Trend (because 1.50 > 0.70 > 0.30).
• Overall Score: 2.50, posCount = (three +1s in Trend) + (two +1s in Momentum) + (two +1s in Price Action) = 7 bullish signals, negCount = 0.
• Final Zone = “BULLISH.”
• The trader sees that both Trend and Momentum are reinforcing each other under high volatility. They might wait one more candle for confirmation but already have strong evidence to consider a long.

Candle Count RSI📈 Candle Count RSI — A Dual-Perspective Momentum Engine
The Candle Count RSI is a custom-built momentum oscillator that expands on the classic Relative Strength Index (RSI) by introducing a directional-only variant that tracks the frequency of bullish or bearish closes, rather than price magnitude. It gives traders a second lens through which to evaluate momentum, trend conviction, and subtle divergences—often invisible to traditional price-based RSI.
💡 What Makes It Unique?
While the standard RSI is sensitive to the size of price changes, the Candle Count RSI is magnitude-blind. It counts candle closes above/below open over a lookback period, generating a purer signal of directional consistency. To enhance signal fidelity, it includes a streak amplifier, dynamically weighting extended runs of green or red candles to reflect intensity of market bias—without introducing artificial price sensitivity.
This dual-RSI approach allows for:
- Divergence detection between directional bias and price magnitude.
- Smoother trend confirmation in choppy markets.
- Cleaner visual cues using dynamic glow and background logic.
📐 How Standard RSI Actually Works (Not What You Think)
RSI doesn’t just check if price went up or down over a span—it checks each individual candle and tracks whether it closed higher or lower than the one before. Here's how it works under the hood:
1.) For each bar, it calculates the change from the previous close.
2.) It separates those changes into gains (upward moves) and losses (downward moves).
3.) Then it computes a smoothed average of those gains and losses (usually using an RMA).
4.) It calculates the Relative Strength (RS) as:
RS = AvgGain / AvgLoss
5.) Finally, it plugs that into the RSI formula:
RSI = 100 - (100 / (1 + RS))
⚖️ What Does the 50 Line Mean?
- The RSI scale runs from 0 to 100, but 50 is the true neutral zone:
- RSI > 50 means average gains outweigh average losses over the period.
- RSI < 50 means losses dominate.
- RSI ≈ 50? The market is balanced—momentum is indecisive, no clear trend bias.
- This makes 50 a powerful midline for trend filters, directional bias tools, and divergence detection—especially when paired with alternative RSI logic like Candle Count RSI.

🔹 Candle Count RSI (CCR)
- Counts how many candles closed up/down over the period.
- Computes a magnitude-free RSI from these counts.
- Applies a streak-based multiplier to exaggerate trend strength during consecutive green/red runs.
- Optionally smoothed with WMA to create a clean signal line.
- This makes CCR ideal for detecting true directional bias without being faked out by volatile price spikes.
🔹 Divergence Logic
- When Candle RSI and Standard RSI disagree strongly across defined thresholds, background fills highlight early signs of momentum decay or hidden accumulation/distribution.
🔹 Glow Logic
- Glow zones are controlled by a master toggle and drawn with dynamic transparency:
- Further from 50 = stronger conviction = darker glow.
- Shows up in subpane and/or main chart depending on user preference.
📷 Suggested Use Case / Visual Setup
- Use in conjunction with your primary price action system.
- Watch for divergences between the Candle Count RSI and Standard RSI for early trend reversals.
- Use glow bias zones on the main chart to get subconscious directional cues during fast scalping.
- Histogram helps you confirm when both RSI variants agree—useful during strong trending conditions.
🛠️ Tip for Traders
- This tool isn’t trying to “predict” price. It’s designed to visualize hidden market psychology—when buyers are showing up with consistent pressure, or when momentum has a disconnect between conviction and magnitude. Use this to filter entries, spot weak rallies, or sense when a trend is about to break down.
⚠️ WARNING
- Not for use with Heikin Ashi, Renko, etc.).
🧠 Summary
Candle Count RSI is not just another mashup—it's a precision-built, dual-perspective oscillator that captures directional conviction using real candle behavior. Whether you're scalping intraday or swing trading momentum, this script helps clarify trend integrity and exposes hidden weaknesses with elegance and clarity.

Gold Pro StrategyHere’s the strategy description in a chat format:
---
**Gold (XAU/USD) Trend-Following Strategy**
This **trend-following strategy** is designed for trading gold (XAU/USD) by combining moving averages, MACD momentum indicators, and RSI filters to capture sustained trends while managing volatility risks. The strategy uses volatility-adjusted stops to protect gains and prevent overexposure during erratic price movements. The aim is to take advantage of trending markets by confirming momentum and ensuring entries are not made at extreme levels.
---
**Key Components**
1. **Trend Identification**
- **50 vs 200 EMA Crossover**
- **Bullish Trend:** 50 EMA crosses above 200 EMA, and the price closes above the 200 EMA
- **Bearish Trend:** 50 EMA crosses below 200 EMA, and the price closes below the 200 EMA
2. **Momentum Confirmation**
- **MACD (12,26,9)**
- **Buy Signal:** MACD line crosses above the signal line
- **Sell Signal:** MACD line crosses below the signal line
- **RSI (14 Period)**
- **Bullish Zone:** RSI between 50-70 to avoid overbought conditions
- **Bearish Zone:** RSI between 30-50 to avoid oversold conditions
3. **Entry Criteria**
- **Long Entry:** Bullish trend, MACD bullish crossover, and RSI between 50-70
- **Short Entry:** Bearish trend, MACD bearish crossover, and RSI between 30-50
4. **Exit & Risk Management**
- **ATR Trailing Stops (14 Period):**
- Initial Stop: 3x ATR from entry price
- Trailing Stop: Adjusts to lock in profits as price moves favorably
- **Position Sizing:** 100% of equity per trade (high-risk strategy)
---
**Key Logic Flow**
1. **Trend Filter:** Use the 50/200 EMA relationship to define the market's direction
2. **Momentum Confirmation:** Confirm trend momentum with MACD crossovers
3. **RSI Validation:** Ensure RSI is within non-extreme ranges before entering trades
4. **Volatility-Based Risk Management:** Use ATR stops to manage market volatility
---
**Visual Cues**
- **Blue Line:** 50 EMA
- **Red Line:** 200 EMA
- **Green Triangles:** Long entry signals
- **Red Triangles:** Short entry signals
---
**Strengths**
- **Clear Trend Focus:** Avoids counter-trend trades
- **RSI Filter:** Prevents entering overbought or oversold conditions
- **ATR Stops:** Adapts to gold’s inherent volatility
- **Simple Rules:** Easy to follow with minimal inputs
---
**Weaknesses & Risks**
- **Infrequent Signals:** 50/200 EMA crossovers are rare
- **Potential Missed Opportunities:** Strict RSI criteria may miss some valid trends
- **Aggressive Position Sizing:** 100% equity allocation can lead to large drawdowns
- **No Profit Targets:** Relies on trailing stops rather than defined exit targets
---
**Performance Profile**
| Metric | Expected Range |
|----------------------|---------------------|
| Annual Trades | 4-8 |
| Win Rate | 55-65% |
| Max Drawdown | 25-35% |
| Profit Factor | 1.8-2.5 |
---
**Optimization Recommendations**
1. **Increase Trade Frequency**
Adjust the EMAs to shorter periods:
- `emaFastLen = input.int(30, "Fast EMA")`
- `emaSlowLen = input.int(150, "Slow EMA")`
2. **Relax RSI Filters**
Adjust the RSI range to:
- `rsiBullish = rsi > 45 and rsi < 75`
- `rsiBearish = rsi < 55 and rsi > 25`
3. **Add Profit Targets**
Introduce a profit target at 1.5% above entry:
```pine
strategy.exit("Long Exit", "Long",
stop=longStopPrice,
profit=close*1.015, // 1.5% target
trail_offset=trailOffset)
```
4. **Reduce Position Sizing**
Risk a smaller percentage per trade:
- `default_qty_value=25`
---
**Best Use Case**
This strategy excels in **strong trending markets** such as gold rallies during economic or geopolitical crises. However, during sideways or choppy market conditions, the strategy might require manual intervention to avoid false signals. Additionally, integrating fundamental analysis—like monitoring USD weakness or geopolitical risks—can enhance its effectiveness.
---
This strategy offers a balanced approach for trading gold, combining trend-following principles with risk management tailored to the volatility of the market.

Exposure Oscillator (Cumulative 0 to ±100%)
Exposure Oscillator (Cumulative 0 to ±100%)
This Pine Script indicator plots an "Exposure Oscillator" on the chart, which tracks the cumulative market exposure from a range of technical buy and sell signals. The exposure is measured on a scale from -100% (maximum short exposure) to +100% (maximum long exposure), helping traders assess the strength of their position in the market. It provides an intuitive visual cue to aid decision-making for trend-following strategies.
Buy Signals (Increase Exposure Score by +10%)
Buy Signal 1 (Cross Above 21 EMA):
This signal is triggered when the price crosses above the 21-period Exponential Moving Average (EMA), where the current bar closes above the EMA21, and the previous bar closed below the EMA21. This indicates a potential upward price movement as the market shifts into a bullish trend.
buySignal1 = ta.crossover(close, ema21)
Buy Signal 2 (Trending Above 21 EMA):
This signal is triggered when the price closes above the 21-period EMA for each of the last 5 bars, indicating a sustained bullish trend. It confirms that the price is consistently above the EMA21 for a significant period.
buySignal2 = ta.barssince(close <= ema21) > 5
Buy Signal 3 (Living Above 21 EMA):
This signal is triggered when the price has closed above the 21-period EMA for each of the last 15 bars, demonstrating a strong, prolonged uptrend.
buySignal3 = ta.barssince(close <= ema21) > 15
Buy Signal 4 (Cross Above 50 SMA):
This signal is triggered when the price crosses above the 50-period Simple Moving Average (SMA), where the current bar closes above the 50 SMA, and the previous bar closed below it. It indicates a shift toward bullish momentum.
buySignal4 = ta.crossover(close, sma50)
Buy Signal 5 (Cross Above 200 SMA):
This signal is triggered when the price crosses above the 200-period Simple Moving Average (SMA), where the current bar closes above the 200 SMA, and the previous bar closed below it. This suggests a long-term bullish trend.
buySignal5 = ta.crossover(close, sma200)
Buy Signal 6 (Low Above 50 SMA):
This signal is true when the lowest price of the current bar is above the 50-period SMA, indicating strong bullish pressure as the price maintains itself above the moving average.
buySignal6 = low > sma50
Buy Signal 7 (Accumulation Day):
An accumulation day occurs when the closing price is in the upper half of the daily range (greater than 50%) and the volume is larger than the previous bar's volume, suggesting buying pressure and accumulation.
buySignal7 = (close - low) / (high - low) > 0.5 and volume > volume
Buy Signal 8 (Higher High):
This signal occurs when the current bar’s high exceeds the highest high of the previous 14 bars, indicating a breakout or strong upward momentum.
buySignal8 = high > ta.highest(high, 14)
Buy Signal 9 (Key Reversal Bar):
This signal is generated when the stock opens below the low of the previous bar but rallies to close above the previous bar’s high, signaling a potential reversal from bearish to bullish.
buySignal9 = open < low and close > high
Buy Signal 10 (Distribution Day Fall Off):
This signal is triggered when a distribution day (a day with high volume and a close near the low of the range) "falls off" the rolling 25-bar period, indicating the end of a bearish trend or selling pressure.
buySignal10 = ta.barssince(close < sma50 and close < sma50) > 25
Sell Signals (Decrease Exposure Score by -10%)
Sell Signal 1 (Cross Below 21 EMA):
This signal is triggered when the price crosses below the 21-period Exponential Moving Average (EMA), where the current bar closes below the EMA21, and the previous bar closed above it. It suggests that the market may be shifting from a bullish trend to a bearish trend.
sellSignal1 = ta.crossunder(close, ema21)
Sell Signal 2 (Trending Below 21 EMA):
This signal is triggered when the price closes below the 21-period EMA for each of the last 5 bars, indicating a sustained bearish trend.
sellSignal2 = ta.barssince(close >= ema21) > 5
Sell Signal 3 (Living Below 21 EMA):
This signal is triggered when the price has closed below the 21-period EMA for each of the last 15 bars, suggesting a strong downtrend.
sellSignal3 = ta.barssince(close >= ema21) > 15
Sell Signal 4 (Cross Below 50 SMA):
This signal is triggered when the price crosses below the 50-period Simple Moving Average (SMA), where the current bar closes below the 50 SMA, and the previous bar closed above it. It indicates the start of a bearish trend.
sellSignal4 = ta.crossunder(close, sma50)
Sell Signal 5 (Cross Below 200 SMA):
This signal is triggered when the price crosses below the 200-period Simple Moving Average (SMA), where the current bar closes below the 200 SMA, and the previous bar closed above it. It indicates a long-term bearish trend.
sellSignal5 = ta.crossunder(close, sma200)
Sell Signal 6 (High Below 50 SMA):
This signal is true when the highest price of the current bar is below the 50-period SMA, indicating weak bullishness or a potential bearish reversal.
sellSignal6 = high < sma50
Sell Signal 7 (Distribution Day):
A distribution day is identified when the closing range of a bar is less than 50% and the volume is larger than the previous bar's volume, suggesting that selling pressure is increasing.
sellSignal7 = (close - low) / (high - low) < 0.5 and volume > volume
Sell Signal 8 (Lower Low):
This signal occurs when the current bar's low is less than the lowest low of the previous 14 bars, indicating a breakdown or strong downward momentum.
sellSignal8 = low < ta.lowest(low, 14)
Sell Signal 9 (Downside Reversal Bar):
A downside reversal bar occurs when the stock opens above the previous bar's high but falls to close below the previous bar’s low, signaling a reversal from bullish to bearish.
sellSignal9 = open > high and close < low
Sell Signal 10 (Distribution Cluster):
This signal is triggered when a distribution day occurs three times in the rolling 7-bar period, indicating significant selling pressure.
sellSignal10 = ta.valuewhen((close < low) and volume > volume , 1, 7) >= 3
Theme Mode:
Users can select the theme mode (Auto, Dark, or Light) to match the chart's background or to manually choose a light or dark theme for the oscillator's appearance.
Exposure Score Calculation: The script calculates a cumulative exposure score based on a series of buy and sell signals.
Buy signals increase the exposure score, while sell signals decrease it. Each signal impacts the score by ±10%.
Signal Conditions: The buy and sell signals are derived from multiple conditions, including crossovers with moving averages (EMA21, SMA50, SMA200), trend behavior, and price/volume analysis.
Oscillator Visualization: The exposure score is visualized as a line on the chart, changing color based on whether the exposure is positive (long position) or negative (short position). It is limited to the range of -100% to +100%.
Position Type: The indicator also indicates the position type based on the exposure score, labeling it as "Long," "Short," or "Neutral."
Horizontal Lines: Reference lines at 0%, 100%, and -100% visually mark neutral, increasing long, and increasing short exposure levels.
Exposure Table: A table displays the current exposure level (in percentage) and position type ("Long," "Short," or "Neutral"), updated dynamically based on the oscillator’s value.
Inputs:
Theme Mode: Choose "Auto" to use the default chart theme, or manually select "Dark" or "Light."
Usage:
This oscillator is designed to help traders track market sentiment, gauge exposure levels, and manage risk. It can be used for long-term trend-following strategies or short-term trades based on moving average crossovers and volume analysis.

Dynamic Buy/Sell VisualizationDynamic Trend Visualization Indicator
Description:
This simple and easy to use indicator has helped me stay in trades longer.
This indicator is designed to visually represent potential buy and sell signals based on the crossover of two Simple Moving Averages (SMA). It's crafted to assist traders in identifying trend directions in a straightforward manner, making it an excellent tool for both beginners and experienced traders.
Features:
Customizable Moving Averages: Users can adjust the period length for both short-term (default: 10) and long-term (default: 50) SMAs to suit their trading strategy.
Visual Signals: Dynamic lines appear at the points of SMA crossover, with labels to indicate 'BUY' or 'SELL' opportunities.
Color and Style Customization: Customize the appearance of the buy and sell lines for better chart readability.
Alert Functionality: Alerts are set up to notify users when a crossover indicating a buy or sell condition occurs.
How It Works:
A 'BUY' signal is generated when the short-term SMA crosses above the long-term SMA, suggesting an upward trend.
A 'SELL' signal is indicated when the short-term SMA crosses below the long-term SMA, pointing to a potential downward trend.
Use Cases:
Trend Following: Ideal for markets with clear trends. For example, if trading EUR/USD on a daily chart, setting the short SMA to 10 days and the long SMA to 50 days might help in capturing longer-term trends.
Scalping: In a volatile market, setting shorter periods (e.g., 5 for short SMA and 20 for long SMA) might catch quicker trend changes, suitable for scalping.
Examples of how to use
* Short-term for Quick Trades:
SMA 5 and SMA 21:
Purpose: This combination is tailored for day traders or those looking to engage in scalping. The 5 SMA will react rapidly to price changes, providing early signals for buy or sell opportunities. The 21 SMA, being a Fibonacci number, offers a slightly longer-term view to confirm the short-term trend, helping to filter out minor fluctuations that might lead to false signals.
* Middle-term for Swing Trading:
SMA 10 and SMA 50:
Purpose: Suited for swing traders who aim to capitalize on medium-term trends. The 10 SMA picks up on immediate market movements, while the 50 SMA gives insight into the medium-term direction. This setup helps in identifying when a short-term trend aligns with a longer-term trend, providing a good balance for trades that might last several days to a couple of weeks.
* Long-term Trading:
SMA 50 and SMA 200:
Purpose: Investors focusing on long-term trends would benefit from this pair. The crossover of the 50 SMA over the 200 SMA can indicate the beginning or end of major market trends, ideal for making decisions about long-term holdings that might span months or years.
Example Strategy if not using the Buy / Sell Label Alerts:
Entry Signal: Enter a long position when the shorter SMA crosses above the longer SMA. For example:
SMA 10 crosses above SMA 50 for a medium-term bullish signal.
Exit Signal: Consider exiting or initiating a short position when:
SMA 10 crosses below SMA 50, suggesting a bearish turn in the medium-term trend.
Confirmation: Use these crossovers in conjunction with other indicators like volume or momentum indicators for better confirmation. For instance, if you're using the 5/21 combination, look for volume spikes on crossovers to confirm the move's strength.
When Not to Use:
Sideways or Range-Bound Markets: The indicator might generate many false signals in a non-trending market, leading to potential losses.
High Volatility Without Clear Trends: Rapid price movements without a consistent direction can result in misleading crossovers.
As a Standalone Tool: It should not be used in isolation. Combining with other indicators like RSI or MACD for confirmation can enhance trading decisions.
Practical Example:
Buy Signal: If you're watching Apple Inc. (AAPL) on a weekly chart, a crossover where the 10-week SMA moves above the 50-week SMA could suggest a buying opportunity, especially if confirmed by volume increase or other technical indicators.
Sell Signal: Conversely, if the 10-week SMA dips below the 50-week SMA, it might be time to consider selling, particularly if other bearish signals are present.
Conclusion:
The "Dynamic Trend Visualization" indicator provides a visual aid for trend-following strategies, offering customization and alert features to streamline the trading process. However, it's crucial to use this in conjunction with other analysis methods to mitigate the risks of false signals or market anomalies.

Up Down Volume Ratio by 3iauThis script considers the total volume within a user specified time frame, and whether price closed higher or lower at the end of each period within that time frame.
EXAMPLE:
* If the time period of interest is 50-periods, the script considers the volume within each of those 50 periods beginning with the most recent closed period.
* SumUpVol = the sum of all volume occurring within only those periods where price closed higher than that of the previous period.
* SumDnVol = the sum of all volume occurring within only those periods where price closed lower than that of the previous period.
* Difference = the difference between SumUpVol and SumDnVol = SumUpVol - SumDnVol
* Total = the sum of SumUpVol and SumDnVol = SumUpVol + SumDnVol
* The plot will present the change in Difference divided by Total = Difference/Total = (SumUpVol - SumDnVol)/(SumUpVol + SumDnVol) occurring within those 50 periods. What will be plotted is the moving average of this value. The user can specify the moving average type and the number of period for which the average is calculated.
* The plot needs to be fitted into a range, for example, +/- 50 (default) or +/-100, by multiplying the result of Difference/Total by a user specified constant. The constant will contain the majority (not all) of the values within +/- the specified value.
* Range = the user specified constant. If Range = 50, the majority of values plotted will be fall within the range +/- 50.
* Therefore, what is plotted is the moving average of Range * Difference / Total.
* When the value = 0, accumulation = distribution over the user specified 50-periods time frame.
* When the value is positive, accumulation > distribution over the user specified 50-periods time frame.
* When the value is negative, distribution > accumulation over the user specified 50-periods time frame.
This plot allows one to see possible accumulation and distribution occurring within a particular stock. The slope of this plot must be considered, and not any single value. The selected constant (“Range” in the example above) does not have an effect on the slope of the plot.
Three values may be plotted at once, for comparison of accumulation or distribution occurring over different time frames. For example, compare Difference / Total calculated over a 50-periods timeframe with 10-periods timeframe, both time frames beginning with the most recent closed period.
In addition to the above, J. Welles Wilder’s Relative Strength Index (RSI) can be plotted over the Difference / Total.
NOTE: this script is not the same as the more commonly used Up/Down Volume Ratio defined as SumUpVol / SumDnVol over a 50-periods time frame, where SumUpVol = the sum of all volume occurring within only those periods where price closed higher than that of the previous period, and SumDnVol = the sum of all volume occurring within only those periods where price closed lower than that of the previous period.
Compare...
Up Down Volume Ratio = SumUpVol / SumDnVol
Up Down Volume Ratio by 3iau = the moving average of Range * (SumUpVol - SumDnVol) / (SumUpVol + SumDnVol)

Reduced-Lag Chande Momentum Oscillator [BOSWaves]Reduced-Lag Chande Momentum Oscillator – Adaptive Momentum Geometry with Reduced-Latency Reversion Logic
Overview
The Reduced-Lag Chande Momentum Oscillator represents a sophisticated extension of the classical Chande Momentum Oscillator, preserving the foundational measurement of net directional pressure while addressing inherent limitations in lag, noise, and signal clarity. The traditional CMO provides reliable snapshots of upward versus downward force but reacts slowly to rapid market accelerations and can obscure meaningful momentum inflections with delayed readings. This iteration integrates a dual-stage reduced-lag filter, optional advanced smoothing, and acceleration-based analytics, producing a real-time, multi-dimensional representation of market momentum.
The design reframes classical momentum using a layered curvature and gradient structure - main, midline, and shadow - to show trajectory, velocity, and intensity in one view. Instead of the usual ±70/30 extremes, it uses ±50 as a statistically grounded threshold where one side of the market begins exerting true dominance. This captures structural imbalance more reliably, exposing exhaustion and actionable inflection without amplifying noise.
This visualization gives traders a continuous, responsive read on market structure, revealing not just direction but rate of change, acceleration alignment, and curvature behavior. The oscillator becomes a momentum map, expressing both probability and intensity behind directional shifts.
Where conventional oscillators mislabel short-lived swings as signals, the Reduced-Lag CMO separates baseline shifts from high-conviction transitions, enabling cleaner, more decisive signal interpretation.
Theoretical Foundation
The classical Chande Momentum Oscillator, created by Tushar Chande, calculates the normalized net difference between consecutive upward and downward price changes over a defined window, generating readings from –100 to +100. While effective for capturing basic directional pressure, the unmodified CMO suffers from signal latency and sensitivity to abrupt market swings, which can obscure actionable inflection points.
The Reduced-Lag CMO augments this foundation with three key mechanisms:
Reduced-Lag Filtering : A dual-EMA structure eliminates inertial lag, aligning the oscillator curve closely with real-time market momentum without producing overshoot artifacts.
Smoothing Architecture : Optional SMA, EMA, or WMA smoothing is applied post-filter, balancing noise reduction with trajectory fidelity. A multi-layer line system (shadow → midline → main) communicates depth, curvature, and gradient dynamics.
Acceleration Integration : First and second derivatives of the smoothed curve quantify velocity and acceleration, allowing the indicator to identify not only momentum flips but the force behind each shift, forming the basis for the strong-signal overlay.
The combination of these mechanisms produces an oscillator that respects the original CMO framework while delivering real-time, context-sensitive intelligence. The ±50 boundaries are selected as the statistically validated pressure zones where directional dominance exceeds neutral oscillation. Crosses and rejections at these boundaries are not arbitrary overbought/oversold events, but measurable imbalances with actionable significance.
How It Works
The Reduced-Lag CMO is constructed through a multi-stage process:
Momentum Estimation Core : Raw CMO values are calculated and then passed through a reduced-lag filter to remove delay, creating a curve that closely tracks instantaneous directional pressure.
Smoothing & Layered Representation : The filtered curve can be smoothed and split into three layers - shadow, midline, and main - giving visual depth, trajectory clarity, and curvature instead of a single-line oscillator.
Gradient-Based Pressure Mapping : Color gradients encode momentum strength and polarity. Green-yellow transitions highlight increasing upward dominance, while red-yellow transitions indicate weakening downward force.
Pressure-Zone Anchoring (±50) : The system defines statistically significant pressure zones at ±50. Moves beyond these levels reflect dominant directional control, and rejections inside the zone signal potential exhaustion.
Signal Generation : Momentum events are evaluated through velocity and acceleration. Standard signals appear as triangle markers indicating validated momentum flips. Strong signals appear as triangles with diamonds when acceleration confirms a high-conviction transition.
A cooldown rule spaces signals apart to reduce clutter and emphasize structurally meaningful events.
Interpretation
The Reduced-Lag CMO reframes momentum as a dynamic equilibrium between directional force and structural pressure:
Positive Momentum Phases : Curves above zero with green-yellow gradients indicate sustained upward pressure. Shallow retracements or midline tests denote controlled pullbacks.
Negative Momentum Phases : Curves below zero with red-yellow gradients show downward dominance. Rejections from –50 highlight potential exhaustion and reversal readiness.
Pressure-Zone Dynamics (±50) : Crosses beyond ±50 confirm dominant directional force. Meanwhile, rejections and rotations inside the zone signal structural fatigue.
Velocity & Acceleration Analysis : Rising momentum with decelerating velocity suggests fading force; acceleration alignment amplifies signal strength and forms the basis of strong signals.
Signal Architecture
The Reduced-Lag CMO produces a single event type with two intensities: a validated momentum inflection.
Standard Signals - Triangles:
Triggered by momentum flips confirmed by velocity.
Represent moderate-intensity directional changes.
Appear at zero-line crosses or ±50 rejections with aligned velocity.
Strong Signals Triangles + Diamonds:
Triggered when acceleration confirms the directional change.
Represent high-intensity, high-conviction shifts.
Rare by design; indicate robust momentum inflections.
Cooldown mechanics prevent repeated signals in short succession, emphasizing structural reliability over noise.
Strategy Integration
Trend Confirmation : Align zero-line flips with higher-timeframe directional bias.
Reversal Detection : Strong signals from ±50 zones highlight potential inflection points.
Volatility Assessment : Gradient transitions reveal strengthening or weakening momentum.
Pullback Timing : Multi-layer curvature identifies controlled retracements vs trend exhaustion.
Confluence Mapping : Pair with structure-based indicators to filter signals in context.

Multi-Symbol EMA Crossover Scanner with Multi-Timeframe AnalysisDescription
What This Indicator Does:
This indicator is a comprehensive market scanner that monitors up to 10 symbols simultaneously across 4 different timeframes (15-minute, 1-hour, 4-hour, and daily) to detect exponential moving average (EMA) crossovers in real-time. Instead of manually checking multiple charts and timeframes for EMA crossover signals, this scanner automatically does the work for you and presents all detected signals in a clean, organized table that updates continuously throughout the trading session.
Key Features:
Multi-Symbol Monitoring: Scan up to 10 different symbols at once (stocks, forex, crypto, or any TradingView symbol)
Multi-Timeframe Analysis: Simultaneously tracks 4 timeframes (15m, 1H, 4H, 1D) with toggle options to enable/disable each
Comprehensive EMA Pairs: Detects crossovers between all major EMA combinations: 20×50, 20×100, 20×200, 50×100, 50×200, and 100×200
Real-Time Signal Feed: Displays the most recent signals in a sorted table (newest first) with timestamp, direction, price, and EMA pair information
Session Filter: Built-in time filter (default 10:00-18:00) to focus on specific trading hours and avoid pre-market/after-hours noise
Pagination System: Navigate through signals using a page selector when you have more signals than fit in one view
Signal Statistics: Footer displays total signals, bullish/bearish breakdown, and page navigation hints
Customizable Display: Choose table position (4 corners), signals per page (5-20), and maximum signal history (10-100)
How It Works:
The scanner uses the request.security() function to fetch EMA data from multiple symbols and timeframes simultaneously. For each symbol-timeframe combination, it calculates four exponential moving averages (20, 50, 100, and 200 periods) and monitors for crossovers:
Bullish Crossovers (▲ Green):
Faster EMA crosses above slower EMA
Indicates potential upward momentum
Common entry signals for long positions
Bearish Crossovers (▼ Red):
Faster EMA crosses below slower EMA
Indicates potential downward momentum
Common entry signals for short positions or exits
The scanner prioritizes crossovers involving faster EMAs (20×50) over slower ones (100×200), as faster crossovers typically generate more frequent signals. Each detected crossover is stored with its timestamp, allowing the scanner to sort signals chronologically and remove duplicates within the same timeframe.
Signal Table Columns:
Sym: Symbol name (abbreviated, e.g., "ASELS" instead of "BIST:ASELS")
TF: Timeframe where the crossover occurred (15m, 1h, 4h, 1D)
⏰: Exact time of the crossover (HH:MM format in Istanbul timezone)
↕: Direction indicator (▲ bullish green / ▼ bearish red)
₺: Price level where the crossover occurred (average of the two EMAs)
MA: Which EMA pair crossed (e.g., "20×50", "50×200")
How to Use:
For Day Traders:
Enable 15m and 1h timeframes
Monitor symbols from your watchlist
Use crossovers as entry timing signals in the direction of the larger trend
Adjust the time filter to match your trading session (e.g., market open to 2 hours before close)
For Swing Traders:
Enable 4h and 1D timeframes
Focus on 50×200 and 100×200 crossovers (golden/death crosses)
Look for multiple timeframe confluence (same symbol showing bullish crossovers on both 4h and 1D)
Use as a pre-market scanner to identify potential setups for the day
For Multi-Market Traders:
Mix symbols from different markets (stocks, forex, crypto)
Use the scanner to identify which markets are showing the most momentum
Track relative strength by comparing crossover frequency across symbols
Identify rotation opportunities when one asset shows bullish signals while another shows bearish
Setup Recommendations:
Default BIST (Turkish Stock Market) Setup:
The code comes pre-configured with 10 popular BIST stocks:
ASELS, EKGYO, THYAO, AKBNK, PGSUS, ASTOR, OTKAR, ALARK, ISCTR, BIMAS
For US Stocks:
Replace with symbols like: NASDAQ:AAPL, NASDAQ:TSLA, NASDAQ:NVDA, NYSE:JPM, etc.
For Forex:
Use pairs like: FX:EURUSD, FX:GBPUSD, FX:USDJPY, OANDA:XAUUSD, etc.
For Crypto:
Use exchanges like: BINANCE:BTCUSDT, COINBASE:ETHUSD, BINANCE:SOLUSDT, etc.

Max Signals (40): Total historical signals to keep in memory
Signals Per Page (10): How many rows to show at once
Page Number: Navigate through signal history (auto-adjusts to available pages)
What Makes This Original:
Multi-symbol scanners exist on TradingView, but this indicator's originality comes from:
Comprehensive EMA Pair Coverage: Most scanners focus on 1-2 EMA pairs, this monitors 6 different combinations simultaneously
Unified Multi-Timeframe View: Presents signals from 4 timeframes in a single, chronologically sorted feed rather than separate panels
Session-Aware Filtering: Built-in time filter prevents signal overload from 24-hour markets
Smart Pagination: Handles large signal volumes gracefully with page navigation instead of scrolling
Signal Deduplication: Prevents the same crossover from appearing multiple times if it persists across several bars
Price-at-Cross Recording: Captures the exact price where the crossover occurred, not just that it happened
Real-Time Statistics: Live tracking of bullish vs bearish signal distribution
Trading Strategy Examples:
Trend Confirmation Strategy:
Find a symbol showing bullish crossover on 1D (major trend change)
Wait for pullback
Enter when 1h shows bullish crossover (confirmation)
Exit when 1h shows bearish crossover
Multi-Timeframe Confluence:
Look for symbols appearing multiple times with same direction
Example: ASELS shows ▲ on both 4h and 1D = strong bullish signal
Avoid symbols showing conflicting signals (▲ on 1h but ▼ on 4h)
Rotation Scanner:
Monitor 10+ symbols from the same sector
Identify which are turning bullish (▲) first
Enter leaders, avoid laggards
Rotate out when crossovers turn bearish (▼)
Important Considerations:
Not a Complete System: EMA crossovers should be confirmed with price action, volume, and support/resistance analysis
Whipsaw Risk: During consolidation, EMAs can cross back and forth frequently (especially on 15m timeframe)
Lag: EMAs are lagging indicators; crossovers occur after the move has already begun
False Signals: More common during sideways markets; work best in trending environments
Symbol Limits: TradingView has limits on request.security() calls; this scanner uses 40 calls (10 symbols × 4 timeframes)
Performance: On lower-end devices, scanning 10 symbols across 4 timeframes may cause slight delays in chart updates
Best Practices:
Start with 5 symbols and 2 timeframes, then expand as you get comfortable
Use in conjunction with a main chart for price context
Don't trade every signal—filter for high-quality setups
Backtest your favorite EMA pairs on your symbols to understand their reliability
Adjust the time filter to exclude lunch hours if your market has low midday volume
Check the footer statistics—if you're getting 50+ signals per day, tighten your time filter or reduce symbols
Technical Notes:
Uses lookahead=barmerge.lookahead_off to prevent future data leakage
Signals are stored in arrays and sorted by timestamp (newest first)
Automatic daily reset clears old signals to prevent memory buildup
Table dynamically resizes based on signal count
All times displayed in Europe/Istanbul timezone (configurable in code)
RSI + Elder Bull-Bear pressure RSI + Bull/Bear (Elder-Ray enhanced RSI)
What it is
An extended RSI that overlays Elder-Ray Bull/Bear Power on the same, zero-centered scale. You get classic RSI regime cues plus a live read of buy/sell pressure, with optional smoothing, bands, and right-edge value labels.
Key features
RSI with bands – default bands 30 / 50 / 70 (editable).
Bull/Bear Power (Elder) – ATR-normalized; optional EMA/SMA/RMA/HMA smoothing.
One-pane overlay – RSI and Bull/Bear share a common midline (RSI-50 ↔ panel 0).
Right-edge labels – always visible at the chart’s right margin with adjustable offsets.
How to read it
Cyan line = RSI (normalized)
Above the mid band = bullish regime; below = bearish regime.
Green = Bull Power, Red = Bear Power
Columns/lines above 0 show buy pressure; below 0 show sell pressure.
Smoothing reduces noise; zero-line remains your key reference.
Trade logic (simple playbook)
Entry
BUY (primary):
RSI crosses up through 50 (regime turns bullish), and
Bull (green) crosses up through 0 (buy pressure confirms).
SELL (primary):
RSI crosses down through 50, and
Bear (red) crosses down through 0 (sell pressure confirms).
Alternative momentum entries
Aggressive BUY: Bull (green) pushes above RSI-80 band (strong upside impulse).
Aggressive SELL: Bear (red) pushes below RSI-30 band (strong downside impulse).
Exits / trade management
In a long: consider exiting or tightening stops if Bear (red) dips below the 0 line (rising sell pressure) or RSI loses 50.
In a short: consider exiting or tightening if Bull (green) rises above 0 or RSI reclaims 50.
Tip: “0” on the panel is your pressure zero-line (maps to RSI-50). Most whipsaws happen near this line; smoothing (e.g., EMA 21) helps.
Defaults (on first load)
RSI bands: 30 / 50 / 70 with subtle fills.
Labels: tiny, pushed far right (large offsets).
Bull/Bear smoothing: EMA(21), smoothed line plot mode.
RSI plotted normalized so it overlaps the pressure lines cleanly.
Tighten or loosen the Bull/Bear thresholds (e.g., Bull ≥ +0.5 ATR, Bear ≤ −0.5 ATR) to demand stronger confirmation.
Settings that matter
Smoothing length/type – balances responsiveness vs. noise.
Power/RSI Gain – visual scaling only (doesn’t change logic).
Band placement – keep raw 30/50/80 or switch to “distance from 50” if you prefer symmetric spacing.
Label offsets – move values clear of the last bar/scale clutter.
Good practices
Combine with structure/ATR stops (e.g., 1–1.5× ATR, swing high/low).
In trends, hold while RSI stays above/below 50 and the opposite pressure line doesn’t dominate.
In ranges, favor signals occurring near the mid band and take profits at the opposite band.
