- Flexible swing size input for adjusting sensitivity.
How to Use:
1. Configuring Swing Settings:
- Use the "Swing Setting" input to determine the sensitivity of swing detection.
- Higher values identify broader swings, while smaller values capture more granular movements.
2. Enabling/Disabling VWAP:
- Toggle VWAP visibility using the "Use VWAP" option.
- The "Hide VWAP on 1D or Above" setting lets you control visibility on higher timeframes.
3. Anchor Period:
- Select your preferred anchoring period (e.g., session, week) to match your trading style.
4. Adjusting the Data Source:
- Use the "Source" input to select the price source (default: HLC3).
5. Visualizing Swing-Based VWAP:

Options Series - Anchored VWAP Ribbon➤ AVWAP On different chart symbols:
⭐ Overview and Key Features:
Anchored VWAP Calculation:
The script implements the Anchored Volume Weighted Average Price (AVWAP), a tool used by professional traders to identify key price levels weighted by volume, starting from a specific timestamp (anchor point).
Bullish and Bearish Analysis:
It determines the dominance of bullish or bearish momentum based on the relationship between the close price and AVWAP levels across multiple time points.
Dynamic Visualization:
The background of the chart changes color based on overall bullish or bearish sentiment, making it easier to interpret market trends.
Multi-Time Anchors:
By defining multiple anchor points (e.g., 09:15, 09:20), the script calculates a series of AVWAP values for fine-grained intraday analysis.
Customizable Inputs:
Users can select the source price (e.g., hlc3), date, and time for AVWAP calculation.
⭐ How It Works and Functionality:
AVWAP Logic:
Uses the timestamp() function to establish a reference (anchor point).
Calculates the cumulative weighted price (price * volume) and cumulative volume from this anchor point.
The ratio of these sums gives the AVWAP, which updates dynamically with new bars.
Bullish and Bearish Signals:
Binary flags (1 or 0) are set for each time point depending on whether the closing price is above or below the AVWAP for that time.
Aggregates these flags into AVWAP_bull and AVWAP_bear to represent the overall market sentiment.
Decision Logic:
Determines final market conditions (bullish or bearish dominance) based on aggregated scores.
Visual feedback (background and bar colors) is applied accordingly.
⭐ Visualizations and User Experience:
Background Colors:
Green or red background highlights the overall sentiment (bullish or bearish), providing a quick market overview.
Bar Coloring:
Bars are color-coded based on bullish, bearish, or neutral conditions, making it easier to identify trends directly on the chart.
AVWAP Levels:
The calculated AVWAP values are plotted as colored lines for each anchor point, giving precise intraday levels of significance.
Bright colors (fluorescent green/red) are used for additional clarity when the close price is above or below these levels.
🎨 Settings and Customization:
Anchor Point:
Fully customizable anchor points allow users to set specific dates and times (e.g., 09:15 on December 13, 2024) for AVWAP calculations.

Cryptocurrency SentimentOverview
This script focuses on calculating and visualizing the sentiment difference between LONG positions and SHORT positions for a selected cryptocurrency pair on the Bitfinex exchange. It provides a clean and clear visual representation of the sentiment, helping traders analyze market behavior.
Key Features
Dynamic Symbol Selection:
The script automatically detects the cryptocurrency symbol from the chart (syminfo.basecurrency) and dynamically constructs the LONGS and SHORTS ticker symbols.
Works seamlessly for pairs like BTCUSD, ETHUSD, and others available on Bitfinex.
Sentiment Calculation:
The sentiment difference is calculated as:
Sentiment Difference=−1×(100− SHORTS/LONGS ×100)
LONGS : The total number of long positions.
SHORTS : The total number of short positions.
If SHORTS is 0, the value is safely skipped to avoid division errors.
Color Coding:
The script visually highlights the sentiment difference:
Green Line: Indicates that LONG positions are dominant (bullish sentiment).
Red Line: Indicates that SHORT positions are dominant (bearish sentiment).
Zero Reference Line:
A gray horizontal line at 0 helps users quickly identify the transition between bullish (above zero) and bearish (below zero) sentiment.
How It Works
Fetching Data:
The script uses request.security to fetch LONGS and SHORTS data at the current chart timeframe (timeframe.period) for the dynamically generated Bitfinex tickers.
Handling Data:
Missing or invalid data (NaN) is filtered out to prevent errors.
Extreme spikes or irregular values are safely avoided.
Visualization:
The sentiment difference is plotted with dynamic color coding:
Green when LONGS > SHORTS (bullish sentiment).
Red when SHORTS > LONGS (bearish sentiment).
Benefits
Market Sentiment Insight: Helps traders quickly identify if the market is leaning towards bullish or bearish sentiment based on actual LONG and SHORT position data.
Dynamic and Adaptive: Automatically adjusts to the selected cryptocurrency symbol on the chart.
Clean Visualization: Focuses solely on sentiment difference with color-coded signals, making it easy to interpret.
Best Use Cases
Trend Confirmation: Use the sentiment difference to confirm trends during bullish or bearish moves.
Market Reversals: Identify potential reversals when sentiment shifts from positive (green) to negative (red) or vice versa.
Sentiment Monitoring: Monitor the overall market bias for cryptocurrencies like BTC, ETH, XRP, etc., in real-time.
Sample Chart Output
Above Zero → Green Line: Bullish sentiment dominates.
Below Zero → Red Line: Bearish sentiment dominates.
Zero Line → Transition point for shifts in sentiment.
Multi VWAPThe Multi-VWAP Indicator is a versatile tool designed to plot up to three Volume Weighted Average Price (VWAP) lines simultaneously, each anchored to a user-defined period. This indicator provides traders with a comprehensive view of price action across multiple timeframes, making it ideal for analyzing trends, support, and resistance levels.
Key Features:
Multiple Anchoring Options:
Each VWAP can be independently anchored to one of the following periods:
Session: Resets at the start of each trading day.
Week: Resets at the start of each week.
Month: Resets at the start of each month.
Quarter: Resets at the start of each quarter.
Year: Resets at the start of each year.
User Customization:
Choose the anchoring period for each VWAP line via dropdown menus.
Assign distinct colors to each VWAP for better visual differentiation.
Dynamic Price Source:
The VWAP calculation is based on the average price (hlc3) by default but can be modified by the user to use other price inputs.
Clear Visualization:
Displays three separate VWAP lines simultaneously, helping traders identify confluences or divergences in price action across timeframes.
Use Cases:
Intraday Trading: Use session-anchored VWAP to track intraday trends and mean reversion points.
Swing Trading: Combine weekly and monthly VWAPs to identify longer-term support and resistance levels.
Multi-Timeframe Analysis: Visualize how price interacts with VWAPs from different periods to spot key zones of interest.
This indicator is a powerful tool for traders who want to incorporate VWAP into their strategies while maintaining flexibility to adapt to various market conditions.
COIN/BTC Volume-Weighted DivergenceThe COIN/BTC Volume-Weighted Divergence indicator identifies buy and sell signals by analyzing deviations between Coinbase and Bitcoin prices relative to their respective VWAPs (Volume-Weighted Average Price). This method isolates points of potential trend reversals, overextensions, or relative mispricing based on volume-adjusted price benchmarks.
The indicator leverages Coinbase’s high beta relative to Bitcoin in bull markets. A buy signal occurs when Coinbase is below VWAP (indicating undervaluation) while Bitcoin is above VWAP (signaling strong broader momentum). A sell signal is generated when Coinbase trades above VWAP (indicating overvaluation) while Bitcoin moves below VWAP (indicating weakening momentum).
This divergence logic enables traders to identify misalignment between Bitcoin-driven market trends and Coinbase’s price behavior. The indicator effectively identifies undervalued entry points and signals exits before speculative extensions are correct. It provides a systematic approach to trading during trending conditions, aligning decisions with volume-weighted price dynamics and inter-asset relationships.
How It Works
1. VWAP:
“fair value” benchmark combining price and volume.
• Above VWAP: Bullish momentum.
• Below VWAP: Bearish momentum.
2. Divergence:
• Coinbase Divergence: close - coin_vwap (distance from COIN’s VWAP).
• Bitcoin Divergence: btc_price - btc_vwap (distance from BTC’s VWAP).
3. Signals:
• Buy: Coinbase is below VWAP (potentially oversold), and Bitcoin is above VWAP (broader bullish trend).
• Sell: Coinbase is above VWAP (potentially overbought), and Bitcoin is below VWAP (broader bearish trend).
4. Visualization:
• Green triangle: Buy signal.
• Red triangle: Sell signal.
Strengths
• Combines price and volume for reliable insights.
• Highlights potential trend reversals or overextensions.
• Exploits correlations between Coinbase and Bitcoin.
Limitations
• Struggles in sideways markets.
• Sensitive to volume spikes, which may distort VWAP.

Improvements
1. Z-Scores: Use statistical thresholds (e.g., ±2 std dev) for stronger signals.
2. Volume Filter: Generate signals only during high-volume periods.
3. Momentum Confirmation: Combine with RSI or MACD for better reliability.
4. Multi-Timeframe VWAP: Use intraday, daily, and weekly VWAPs for deeper analysis.
Complementary Tools
• Momentum Indicators: RSI, MACD for trend validation.
• Volume-Based Metrics: OBV, cumulative delta volume.
• Support/Resistance Levels: Enhance reversal accuracy.

Ask-Weighted Averages This indicator provides two price-based reference lines derived from volume dynamics within each bar. Specifically, it calculates a volume-weighted average price using only the portion of trading volume that occurred on the "ask" side, implying more aggressive buying activity. The logic behind this approach is to highlight potential support and resistance levels where buyers have shown greater conviction.
Key Features:
Ask-Weighted Average Prices:
Instead of using the entire trade volume, the lines focus on "ask volume" (volume associated with trades occurring at or near the ask price). This helps to spotlight areas where buyers have been dominant, potentially revealing more meaningful price levels for future market behavior.
Conditional vs. Continuous Lines:
Conditional Line: This line is only plotted if the dollar volume (a rough measure of trade value) exceeds a specified threshold, ensuring that the highlighted level is backed by substantial trading activity.
Continuous Line: A second line is always displayed, providing a running ask-weighted average price reference for additional context, regardless of dollar volume.
Supports Identifying Key Price Zones:
By focusing on where more motivated buyers have been active, the indicator helps traders identify potential inflection points in price, such as areas where the market might find support on pullbacks or resistance during rallies.
Overall, this indicator serves as a specialized tool for traders interested in volume-driven price analysis. It aims to refine the understanding of where buyers are most engaged and how that might shape future price movements.
Risks Associated with Trading:
No indicator can guarantee profitable trades or accurately predict future price movements. Market conditions are inherently unpredictable, and reliance on any single tool or combination of tools carries the risk of financial loss. Traders should practice sound risk management, including the use of stop losses and position sizing, and should not trade with funds they cannot afford to lose. Ultimately, decisions should be guided by a thorough trading plan and possibly supplemented with other forms of market analysis or professional advice.
Risks and Important Considerations:
• Not a Standalone Tool:
• This indicator should not be used in isolation. It is essential to incorporate additional technical analysis tools, fundamental analysis, and market context when making trading decisions.
• Relying solely on this indicator may lead to incomplete assessments of market conditions.
• Market Volatility and False Signals:
• Financial markets can be highly volatile, and indicators based on historical data may not accurately predict future movements.
• The indicator may produce false signals due to sudden market changes, low liquidity, or atypical trading activity.
• Risk Management:
• Always employ robust risk management strategies, including setting stop-loss orders, diversifying your portfolio, and not over-leveraging positions.
• Understand that no indicator guarantees success, and losses are a natural part of trading.
• Emotional Discipline:
• Avoid making impulsive decisions based on indicator signals alone.
• Emotional trading can lead to significant financial losses; maintain discipline and adhere to a well-thought-out trading plan.
• Continuous Learning and Adaptation:
• Stay informed about market news, economic indicators, and global events that may impact trading conditions.
• Continuously evaluate and adjust your trading strategies as market dynamics evolve.
• Consultation with Professionals:
• Consider seeking advice from financial advisors or professional traders to understand better how this indicator can fit into your overall trading strategy.
• Professional guidance can provide personalized insights based on your financial goals and risk tolerance.
Disclaimer:
Trading financial instruments involves substantial risk and may not be suitable for all investors. Past performance is not indicative of future results. This indicator is provided for informational and educational purposes only and should not be considered investment advice. Always conduct your own research and consult with a licensed financial professional before making any trading decisions.

MERCURY by DrAbhiramSivprasad"MERCURY by DrAbhiramSivprasad"
Developed from over 10 years of personal trading experience, the Mercury Indicator is a strategic tool designed to enhance accuracy in trading decisions. Think of it as a guiding light—a supportive tool that helps traders refine and build more robust strategies by integrating multiple powerful elements into a single indicator. I’ll be sharing some examples to illustrate how I use this indicator in my own trading journey, highlighting its potential to improve strategy accuracy.
Reason behind the combination of emas , cpr and vwap is it provides very good support and resistance in my trading carrier so now i brought them together in one plate
How It Works:
Mercury combines three essential elements—EMA, VWAP, and CPR—each of which plays a vital role in detecting support and resistance:
Exponential Moving Averages (EMAs): Known for their strength in providing dynamic support and resistance levels, EMAs help in identifying trends and shifts in momentum. This indicator includes a dashboard with up to nine customizable EMAs, showing whether each is acting as support or resistance based on real-time price movement.
Volume Weighted Average Price (VWAP): VWAP also provides valuable support and resistance, often regarded as a fair price level by institutional traders. Paired with EMAs, it forms a dual-layered support/resistance system, adding an additional level of confirmation.
Central Pivot Range (CPR): By combining CPR with EMAs and VWAP, Mercury highlights “traffic blocks” in your target journey. This means it identifies zones where price is likely to stall or reverse, providing additional guidance for navigating entries and exits.
Why This Combination Matters:
Using these three tools together gives you a more complete view of the market. VWAP and EMAs offer dynamic trend direction and support/resistance, while CPR pinpoints critical price zones. This combination helps you find high-probability trades, adding clarity to complex market situations and enabling stronger confirmation on trend or reversal decisions.
How to Use:
Trend Confirmation: Check if all EMAs are aligned (green for uptrend, red for downtrend), which is visible in the EMA dashboard. An alignment across VWAP, CPR, and EMAs signifies high confidence in trend direction.
Breakouts & Breakdowns: Mercury has an alert system to signal when a price breakout or breakdown occurs across VWAP, EMA1, and EMA2. This can help in spotting strong directional moves.
Example Application: In my trading, I use Mercury to identify support/resistance zones, confirming trends with EMA/VWAP alignment and using CPR as a checkpoint. I find this especially useful for day trading and swing setups.
Recommended Timeframes:
Day Trading: 5 to 15-minute charts for swift, actionable insights.
Swing Trading: 1-hour or 4-hour charts for broader trend analysis.
Note:
The Mercury Indicator should be used as a supportive tool rather than a standalone strategy, guiding you toward informed decisions in line with your trading style and goals.
EXAMPLE OF TRADE
you can see the cart of XAUUSD on 11th nov 2024
1.SHORT POSITION - TIME FRAME 15 MIN
So here for a short position you need to wait for a breakdown candle which will print in orange post the candle you need to check ema dashboard is completly red that indicates no traffic blocks in your journey to destiny target from ema's and you can take the target from nearest cpr support line
TAKEN IN XAUUSD you can see in chart of XAUUSD on 7th nov
2.LONG POSITION - TIME FRAME 15 MIN -
So here for long position you need to wait for a breakout candle from indicator thats here is blue and check all ema boxes are green and candle body should close above all the 3 lines here it is the both ema 1 and 2 and the vwap line then you can take and entry and your target will be the nearest resistance from the daily cpr
3. STOP LOSS CRITERIA
After the entry any candle close below any of the last line from entry for example we have 3 lines vwap and ema 1 and 2 lines and u have made an entry and the last line before the entry is vwap then if any candle closes below vwap can be considered as stoploss like wise in any lines
The MERCURY indicator is a comprehensive trading tool designed to enhance traders' ability to identify trends, breakouts, and reversals effectively. Created by Dr. Abhiram Sivprasad, this indicator integrates several technical elements, including Central Pivot Range (CPR), EMA crossovers, VWAP levels, and a table-based EMA dashboard, to offer a holistic trading view.
Core Components and Functionality:
Central Pivot Range (CPR):
The CPR in MERCURY provides a central pivot level along with Below Central (BC) and Top Central (TC) pivots. These levels act as potential support and resistance, useful for identifying reversal points and zones where price may consolidate.
Exponential Moving Averages (EMAs):
MERCURY includes up to nine EMAs, with a customizable EMA crossover alert system. This feature enables traders to see shifts in trend direction, especially when shorter EMAs cross longer ones.
VWAP (Volume-Weighted Average Price):
VWAP is incorporated as a dynamic support/resistance level and, combined with EMA crossovers, helps refine entry and exit points for higher probability trades.
Breakout and Breakdown Alerts:
MERCURY monitors conditions for upside and downside breakouts. For an upside breakout, all EMAs turn green and a candle closes above VWAP, EMA1, and EMA2. Similarly, all EMAs turning red, combined with a close below VWAP and EMA1/EMA2, signals a downside breakdown. Continuous alerts are available until the trend shifts.
Real-Time EMA Dashboard:
A table displays each EMA’s relative position (Above or Below), helping traders quickly gauge trend direction. Colors in the table adjust to long/short conditions based on EMA alignment.
Usage Recommendations:
Trend Confirmation:
Use the CPR, EMA alignments, and VWAP to confirm uptrends and downtrends. The table highlights trends, making it easy to spot long or short setups at a glance.
Breakout and Breakdown Alerts:
The alert system is customizable for continuous notifications on critical price levels. When all EMAs align in one direction (green for long, red for short) and the close is above or below VWAP and key EMAs, the indicator confirms a breakout/breakdown.
Adaptable for Different Styles:
Day Trading: Traders can set shorter EMAs for quick insights.
Swing Trading: Longer EMAs combined with CPR offer insights into sustained trends.
Recommended Settings:
Timeframes: MERCURY is suitable for timeframes as low as 5 minutes for intraday traders, up to daily charts for trend analysis.
Symbols: Works across forex, stocks, and crypto. Adjust EMA lengths for asset volatility.
Example Strategy:
Long Entry: When the price crosses above CPR and closes above both EMA1 and EMA2.
Short Entry: When the price falls below CPR with a close below both EMA1 and EMA2.
Kalman Based VWAP [EdgeTerminal]Kalman VWAP is a different take on volume-weighted average price (VWAP) indicator where we enhance the results with Kalman filtering and dynamic wave visualization for a more smooth and improved trend identification and volatility analysis.
A little bit about Kalman Filter:
Kalman filtering (also known as linear quadratic estimation) is an algorithm that uses a series of measurements observed over time, including statistical noise and other inaccuracies, to produce estimates of unknown variables that tend to be more accurate than those based on a single measurement, by estimating a joint probability distribution over the variables for each time-step. The filter is constructed as a mean squared error minimiser, but an alternative derivation of the filter is also provided showing how the filter relates to maximum likelihood statistics
This indicator combines:
Volume-Weighted Average Price (VWAP) for institutional price levels
Kalman filtering for noise reduction and trend smoothing
Dynamic wave visualization for volatility zones
This creates a robust indicator that helps traders identify trends, support/resistance zones, and potential reversal points with high precision.
What makes this even more special is the fact that we use open price as a data source instead of usual close price. This allows you to tune the indicator more accurately when back testing it and generally get results that are closer to real time market data.
The math:
In case if you're interested in the math of this indicator, the indicator employs a state-space Kalman filter model:
State Equation: x_t = x_{t-1} + w_t
Measurement Equation: z_t = x_t + v_t
x_t is the filtered VWAP state
w_t is process noise ~ N(0, Q)
v_t is measurement noise ~ N(0, R)
z_t is the traditional VWAP measurement
The Kalman filter recursively updates through:
Prediction: x̂_t|t-1 = x̂_{t-1}
Update: x̂_t = x̂_t|t-1 + K_t(z_t - x̂_t|t-1)
Where K_t is the Kalman gain, optimally balancing between prediction and measurement.
Input Parameters
Measurement Noise: Controls signal smoothing (0.0001 to 1.0)
Process Noise: Adjusts trend responsiveness (0.0001 to 1.0)
Wave Size: Multiplier for volatility bands (0.1 to 5.0)
Trend Lookback: Period for trend determination (1 to 100)
Bull/Bear Colors: Customizable color schemes
Application:
I recommend using this along other indicators. This is best used for assets that don't have a close time, such as BTC but can be used with anything as long as the data is there.
With default settings, this works better for swing trades but you can adjust it for day trading as well, by adjusting the lookback and also process noise.

The script incorporates a Quarterly VWAP for trend bias, marks pin bars for possible reversal points, highlights outside bars for volatility signals, and indicates simple breakouts and pivot-level breaks. Customizable settings allow for flexibility in various trading styles, with default settings optimized for daily charts.
Outside Bars : Represented by an ⤬ symbol on the chart, these indicate bars where the current high is greater than the previous bar’s high, and the low is lower than the previous bar’s low, signaling high volatility and potential market reversals.
Pin Bars : Denoted by a small dot at the top or bottom of a candle’s wick, these are crucial signals of potential reversal areas. Pin bars are identified based on the percentage length of their shadows, with adjustable strictness in settings.
Quarterly VWAP : The light blue line on the chart represents the VWAP (Volume-Weighted Average Price), which is anchored to the Quarterly period by default. The VWAP acts as a directional bias filter, helping you to determine underlying market trends. This period, source, and offset are fully adjustable in the script’s settings.
Simple Breaks : Hollow candles on the chart indicate "simple breaks," defined when the current bar closes above the previous high or below the previous low. This is an effective way to highlight directional momentum in the market.
Bonus Pivot Breaks : The tilde symbol ~ appears when the price closes above or below prior pivot high/low levels, helping traders spot significant breakout or breakdown points relative to recent pivots.
Alerts
Simple Breaks : Alerts you when a breakout occurs beyond the previous bar’s high or low. Pin Bars : Notifies you of potential reversal points as indicated by bullish or bearish pin bars. Outside Bars : Triggers an alert whenever an outside bar is detected, indicating possible volatility changes.
How to Use
VWAP for Trend Bias : Use the Quarterly VWAP line to gauge overall market trend, with settings that allow adjustment to daily, weekly, monthly, or even larger time frames.
Pin Bars for Reversal Potential : Look for the dot markers on candle wicks, where the strictness of the pin bar detection can be adjusted via settings to match your trading preference.
Simple and Pivot Breaks for Momentum : Watch for hollow candles and the tilde symbol ~ as indicators of potential breakout momentum and pivot break levels, respectively.
This script can serve traders on multiple timeframes, from daily to weekly and beyond. The flexible configuration allows for adjustments in VWAP anchoring and pin bar criteria, providing a tailored fit for individual trading strategies.

Options Series - Technical Analysis Chart➤ Simple Technical Chart Only:
➤ With MA-20 Overlay and Volatility background bars:
➤ With RSI Candles:
⭐ Overview and How It Works:
This script provides a multi-asset analysis tool to assess various market conditions across four symbols simultaneously. It combines several indicators such as daily price change, Moving Averages (MA), Bollinger Bands (BB), Parabolic SAR, RSI, and VWAP to generate buy/sell signals and trend indicators. Its strength lies in the layered use of indicators to enhance signal reliability, making it valuable for traders needing cross-validation in decision-making.
⭐ Key Features and Functionality:
The script evaluates each symbol's price against various indicators and conditions:
Daily Price Conditions: It checks if each symbol’s close price is above or below the previous day’s open, close, and intra-day ranges, forming a foundational bullish/bearish condition.
Range Breakout 1st 5min Candle (ORB): Opening Range Breakout levels are calculated and compared with current close prices, detecting breakout/breakdown conditions.
ORB Body: This basically calculates the previous day Daily candle body size, if todays Daily candle body size is greater than previous day, then we can say that we are having good momentum else its likely to be in-sidebar trading.
Moving Averages (MA): It leverages EMA-20, 2-day, and 3-day exponential moving averages to gauge short to medium-term trends.
RSI and VWAP: Relative Strength Index (RSI) determines overbought or oversold conditions, while VWAP compares prices to volume-weighted levels.
Bollinger Bands and Trend Analysis: Detects volatility and potential breakout conditions.
Concept of ORB Body:
Current_PrevDay_Body = (math.max(var_Current_PrevD_Open, var_Current_PrevD_Close) - math.min(var_Current_PrevD_Open, var_Current_PrevD_Close))
Current_Upper_ORB = var_Current_D_Open + Current_PrevDay_Body
Current_Lower_ORB = var_Current_D_Open - Current_PrevDay_Body
Current_TodayDay_Body = math.max(var_Current_D_Open, var_Current_Close) - math.min(var_Current_D_Open, var_Current_Close)
Current_ORBBody = Current_TodayDay_Body > Current_PrevDay_Body
Current_Upper_ORB_bull = (var_Current_Close > Current_Upper_ORB)
Current_Lower_ORB_bear = (var_Current_Close < Current_Lower_ORB)
🎨 Visualizations and User Experience:
The script can dynamically display colored backgrounds indicating trends when conditions are met. For example, the bgcolor function changes the background when certain trend-based criteria are satisfied, offering visual cues to users. Additionally, the checkbox input toggles trend bar visualizations, enhancing user experience by providing a quick visual reference without needing to interpret individual data points manually.
RSI-Based Candle Coloring:
➤ The script customizes candle colors based on RSI thresholds, specifically defining upper (60) and lower (40) RSI levels. When the RSI value exceeds the upper threshold, candles are colored as bullish (green), and if it falls below the lower threshold, candles are colored as bearish (red). Neutral RSI values result in a default color (gray).
➤ This setup offers a visually intuitive way to identify potential trend directions based on RSI levels, making it ideal for traders looking to gauge momentum visually.
⭐ Settings and Customization:
With multiple user-configurable inputs, the script allows for tailored analysis. Customizable parameters, such as enabling/disabling trend bars and setting various look-back periods for indicators like Bollinger Bands and Moving Averages, make it adaptable to various trading styles and preferences. It also allows users to modify visual elements like colors and styles, improving flexibility.
⭐ Uniqueness of the Concept:
The unique aspect of this script is its multi-symbol approach combined with complex conditions. By comparing not only one but four symbols simultaneously, it provides a broader market view and allows traders to correlate signals across different assets, offering a potential edge for diversified or comparative strategies. Additionally, the incorporation of ORB and multi-timeframe MAs gives it a robustness often lacking in simpler single-symbol scripts.
🚀 Conclusion:
This script is a powerful multi-indicator tool suited for traders looking for a comparative, multi-symbol analysis. With features like ORB, Bollinger Band-based trend detection, and MA cross-verification, it can assist traders in identifying and validating trend signals across assets. The user-friendly visualizations and customizable settings further enhance its usability, making it versatile for various trading strategies and preferences.
VWAP it GOODWhy: Instead of having 5 individual VWAP indicators, I found it beneficial for one view with a clean display. This VWAP indicator combines the daily, weekly, monthly, quarterly and annual into one color coded view. These colors and styles can be modified by the user.
A user can turn any timeframe off, but this is how I personally like to trade since it helps me better understand potential bounce or pullback areas.
Do your own research for what is best for you.
Rolling Reversion BandsRolling Reversion Bands: A Technical Trading Indicator
This indicator helps traders spot potential reversal opportunities by showing where price might be overextended and likely to return to average levels. It combines two powerful technical tools - Volume Weighted Average Price (VWAP) and Hull Moving Average (HMA) smoothing - to create a more reliable signal.
Key Features:
Golden centerline: A smoothed VWAP that filters out market noise
Uses volume-weighted pricing for better accuracy than simple averages
HMA smoothing reduces false signals while staying responsive to real moves
Works like a "fair value" level that price tends to return to
Colored bands:
Turquoise bands (#32f0dd): Show shorter-term price ranges (100 periods)
Pink/red bands (#c2024f): Show longer-term price ranges (200 periods)
Two levels for each color (inner and outer bands)
How to Use It:
When price moves outside the bands, it might be overextended
The golden HMA-smoothed VWAP centerline acts as a target level where price often returns to
Wider bands show higher volatility, narrower bands show lower volatility
You can toggle different bands on/off to keep your chart clean
Customization:
Adjust HMA smoothing to make the centerline more or less responsive
Change how wide you want the bands to be
Turn different bands on or off as needed
The indicator combines advanced technical concepts (VWAP, HMA, volatility bands) in a visually clean way, using smoothing techniques to reduce noise and help identify clearer trading opportunities.
Multi Deviation VWAP [OmegaTools]The Multi Deviation VWAP is an original variation of the traditional VWAP indicator, designed to enhance your trading experience by providing more precise market insights. While the conventional VWAP calculates a single price level based on volume and price over a given period, the Multi Deviation VWAP goes a step further by introducing dynamic upper and lower bands that adapt to market conditions. These bands give traders a more comprehensive understanding of volatility and price action, making it an ideal tool for various trading strategies, especially for identifying potential price reversals or trend continuations.
Key Features:
Separate Calculation of Deviation Bands:
Unlike traditional VWAP bands, where both the upper and lower bands are symmetrically calculated using a single deviation value, the Multi Deviation VWAP calculates the deviations independently for the upper and lower bands. This allows for a more accurate reflection of market dynamics.
The upper deviation band is based on the average distance of closing prices above the VWAP, while the lower deviation band considers the average distance of closing prices below the VWAP.
This separation provides a more tailored approach, adapting to whether the market is showing bullish or bearish momentum, as opposed to a fixed, equal deviation in both directions.
Internal and External Bands:
Two sets of deviation bands are plotted: Internal Bands and External Bands, controlled by user inputs (factorone for internal and factortwo for external). These bands offer multiple levels of support and resistance based on market volatility.
The Internal Bands are closer to the VWAP and act as the first level of support/resistance, suitable for short-term or tighter trading ranges.
The External Bands are further from the VWAP and capture more significant market swings, useful for identifying larger trends or setting wider stop-losses.
Timeframe Flexibility:
The indicator allows traders to select the desired timeframe (1D by default) over which the VWAP and its deviation bands are calculated. This flexibility enables users to adapt the indicator to different trading styles, from intraday scalping to longer-term trend analysis.
Visual Enhancements:
Bullish and Bearish Colors: The bands are color-coded for quick visual interpretation. Bullish bands (lower deviations) are colored blue, while bearish bands (upper deviations) are colored red, making it easy to differentiate between market conditions at a glance.
Plot Fill: The area between the internal and external bands is shaded, providing clear visual zones of potential price containment, aiding in understanding the market structure and anticipating price movements.
How It Differs from a Standard VWAP:
Traditional VWAP provides a single price line that represents the volume-weighted average price over a given period, often used to identify general price trends.
In contrast, the Multi Deviation VWAP introduces upper and lower bands calculated separately based on price deviations above and below the VWAP, giving a more nuanced view of market volatility.
Symmetrical bands in traditional VWAP may not always accurately reflect the market's true behavior, especially in trending markets, where upward and downward price movements aren't always equal. By splitting the deviation calculations, this tool provides a more dynamic and realistic view of price action, adapting to whether the market is showing stronger upward or downward pressure.
Use Cases:
Trend Identification: The VWAP line acts as a central trend line, while the deviation bands offer levels of potential support and resistance. When price moves beyond the external bands, it may indicate overextension and potential reversal.
Volatility Trading: Traders can use the internal and external bands to set dynamic take-profit or stop-loss levels, allowing for flexible risk management depending on market conditions.
Range Trading: In consolidating markets, the Multi Deviation VWAP can help traders identify optimal buy and sell zones as the price oscillates between the upper and lower bands.
By incorporating independent deviation bands, this indicator provides traders with a more responsive tool that reflects market behavior more accurately, helping them make informed trading decisions with enhanced precision.
