Adaptive Valuation [BackQuant]Adaptive Valuation
What this is
A composite, zero-centered oscillator that standardizes several classic indicators and blends them into one “valuation” line. It computes RSI, CCI, Demarker, and the Price Zone Oscillator, converts each to a rolling z-score, then forms a weighted average. Optional smoothing, dynamic overbought and oversold bands, and an on-chart table make the inputs and the final score easy to inspect.
How it works
Components
• RSI with its own lookback.
• CCI with its own lookback.
• DM (Demarker) with its own lookback.
• PZO (Price Zone Oscillator) with its own lookback.
Standardization via z-score
Each component is transformed using a rolling z-score over lookback bars:
z = (value − mean) ÷ stdev , where the mean is an EMA and the stdev is rolling.
This puts all inputs on a comparable scale measured in standard deviations.
Weighted blend
The z-scores are combined with user weights w_rsi, w_cci, w_dm, w_pzo to produce a single valuation series. If desired, it is then smoothed with a selected moving average (SMA, EMA, WMA, HMA, RMA, DEMA, TEMA, LINREG, ALMA, T3). ALMA’s sigma input shapes its curve.
Dynamic thresholds (optional)
Two ways to set overbought and oversold:
• Static : fixed levels at ob_thres and os_thres .
• Dynamic : ±k·σ bands, where σ is the rolling standard deviation of the valuation over dynLen .
Bands can be centered at zero or around the valuation’s rolling mean ( centerZero ).
Visualization and UI
• Zero line at 0 with gradient fill that darkens as the valuation moves away from 0.
• Optional plotting of band lines and background highlights when OB or OS is active.
• Optional candle and background coloring driven by the valuation.
• Summary table showing each component’s current z-score, the final score, and a compact status.
How it can be used
• Bias filter : treat crosses above 0 as bullish bias and below 0 as bearish bias.
• Mean-reversion context : look for exhaustion when the valuation enters the OB or OS region, then watch for exits from those regions or a return toward 0.
• Signal confirmation : use the final score to confirm setups from structure or price action.
• Adaptive banding : with dynamic thresholds, OB and OS adjust to prevailing variability rather than relying on fixed lines.
• Component tuning : change weights to emphasize trend (raise DM, reduce RSI/CCI) or range behavior (raise RSI/CCI, reduce DM). PZO can help in swing environments.
Why z-score blending helps
Indicators often live on different scales. Z-scoring places them on a common, unitless axis, so a one-sigma move in RSI has comparable influence to a one-sigma move in CCI. This reduces scale bias and allows transparent weighting. It also facilitates regime-aware thresholds because the dynamic bands scale with recent dispersion.
Inputs to know
• Component lookbacks : rsilb, ccilb, dmlb, pzolb control each raw signal.
• Standardization window : lookback sets the z-score memory. Longer smooths, shorter reacts.
• Weights : w_rsi, w_cci, w_dm, w_pzo determine each component’s influence.
• Smoothing : maType, smoothP, sig govern optional post-blend smoothing.
• Dynamic bands : dyn_thres, dynLen, thres_k, centerZero configure the adaptive OB/OS logic.
• UI : toggle the plot, table, candle coloring, and threshold lines.
Reading the plot
• Above 0 : composite pressure is positive.
• Below 0 : composite pressure is negative.
• OB region : valuation above the chosen OB line. Risk of mean reversion rises and momentum continuation needs evidence.
• OS region : mirror logic on the downside.
• Band exits : leaving OB or OS can serve as a normalization cue.
Strengths
• Normalizes heterogeneous signals into one interpretable series.
• Adjustable component weights to match instrument behavior.
• Dynamic thresholds adapt to changing volatility and drift.
• Transparent diagnostics from the on-chart table.
• Flexible smoothing choices, including ALMA and T3.
Limitations and cautions
• Z-scores assume a reasonably stationary window. Sharp regime shifts can make recent bands unrepresentative.
• Highly correlated components can overweight the same effect. Consider adjusting weights to avoid double counting.
• More smoothing adds lag. Less smoothing adds noise.
• Dynamic bands recalibrate with dynLen ; if set too short, bands may swing excessively. If too long, bands can be slow to adapt.
Practical tuning tips
• Trending symbols: increase w_dm , use a modest smoother like EMA or T3, and use centerZero dynamic bands.
• Choppy symbols: increase w_rsi and w_cci , consider ALMA with a higher sigma , and widen bands with a larger thres_k .
• Multiday swing charts: lengthen lookback and dynLen to stabilize the scale.
• Lower timeframes: shorten component lookbacks slightly and reduce smoothing to keep signals timely.
Alerts
• Enter and exit of Overbought and Oversold, based on the active band choice.
• Bullish and bearish zero crosses.
Use alerts as prompts to review context rather than as stand-alone trade commands.
Final Remarks
We created this to show people a different way of making indicators & trading.
You can process normal indicators in multiple ways to enhance or change the signal, especially with this you can utilise machine learning to optimise the weights, then trade accordingly.
All of the different components were selected to give some sort of signal, its made out of simple components yet is effective. As long as the user calibrates it to their Trading/ investing style you can find good results. Do not use anything standalone, ensure you are backtesting and creating a proper system.

DM Impulse Enhanced [BackQuant]DM Impulse Enhanced
What this is (and what it isn’t)
DM Impulse Enhanced is a signal-driven overlay that classifies market action into two practical regimes: Long (risk-on) and Cash (risk-off). It’s built around a proprietary impulse model from the directional-movement family, wrapped in a persistence test and a state machine. Because this script is private, the core mechanics are intentionally abstracted here; what follows explains how to read and use it without revealing the protected calculation.
Why traders use it
Many tools oscillate or describe “how stretched” price is; fewer make a firm, operational call that you can automate. DM Impulse Enhanced aims to do exactly that declare when upside pressure is broad and durable enough to justify a long bias, and when deterioration is strong enough to stand aside (cash/short discretion). The emphasis is on impulse persistence rather than one-off spikes.
What you see on the chart
• Long / Cash markers – Green up-triangles (Long) and red down-triangles (Cash) plot at the bar where the regime changes.
• Regime-tinted bars (optional) – Candles can be softly shaded green during Long and red during Cash for at-a-glance context.
• Trend ribbon (context only) – A narrow ribbon (fast/slow moving averages) is tinted by the current regime to show trend alignment; it does not generate signals on its own.
• No separate sub-pane – Signals are intended to sit directly on price for immediate decision-making.
How the logic behaves (high-level)
Impulse core – A directional-movement–based engine estimates the strength of buying vs. selling pressure over a user-defined horizon.
Persistence gate – Instead of reacting to a single reading, the model evaluates how consistently that impulse dominates across a configurable lookback range.
State machine – When persistence clears (or fails) a pair of thresholds, the model flips and stays in that regime until evidence justifies a change. This “stickiness” is intentional; it reduces whipsaws in choppy tape.
Inputs & controls
Calculation Settings
• DM Length – The base horizon for the impulse engine. Longer = smoother/steadier; shorter = quicker/more reactive.
• Start / End – Defines the span of the persistence check. Expanding the span asks the market to prove itself against more history before changing regime.
Signal Settings
• Long Threshold – The persistence level required to promote the model into Long.
• Short Threshold – The level that, once crossed to the downside, demotes the model into Cash. Using a cross-under event for risk-off helps avoid premature exits on noise.
Visual Settings
• Long / Short colours – Customize marker and shading hues.
• Color Bars? – Toggle candle tinting by regime (off if you prefer a clean chart).
Reading the signals
• Long prints only when the model observes sustained upside pressure across the configured span. Treat this as permission to engage with pullbacks, breakouts, or your preferred setups in the direction of the trend.
• Cash prints when downside deterioration is strong enough to invalidate the prior regime. It’s a risk-off directive—flatten, hedge, or switch to short strategies according to your plan.
• Regime persistence is a feature: once Long, the model won’t flip on minor dips; once Cash, it won’t re-arm on minor bounces. If you want more flips, shorten the spans and relax thresholds; if you want fewer, do the opposite.
Practical tuning guide
Match DM Length to your timeframe
– Intraday: smaller length for timely response.
– Swing/Position: larger length to filter desk-noise and track higher-timeframe flows.
Size the persistence span to your goal
– Narrow span: faster regime changes, more trades, more noise.
– Wide span: fewer, higher-conviction calls, longer holds.
Set realistic thresholds
– The Long threshold should be reachable with your chosen span; the Short threshold should be low enough to catch genuine deterioration but not so tight that it flips on every dip.
Decide on cosmetics
– Turn on bar tinting for discretionary reading, or keep it off when exporting screenshots or running other overlays.
Suggested workflows
• Trend-following with discipline – Trade only in the Long regime; use structure (higher lows, anchored VWAP, or pullbacks to your MA stack) for entries and the Cash flip as a portfolio-level exit.
• Risk overlay – Keep your normal strategy, but: reduce size when Cash appears; re-enable full risk only after Long reasserts.
• Multi-timeframe gating – Require Long on a higher timeframe (e.g., 4H or 1D), then take entries on a lower one. If the high-TF posts Cash, stand down.
How the ribbon fits in
The ribbon visualizes short- vs. intermediate-term trend in the same colour as the regime. It’s deliberately “dumb”: it does not change the signal, it just helps you see when price action and regime are in harmony (e.g., pullbacks during Long that hold above the ribbon).
Alerts included
• DM Impulse LONG – Triggers as the persistence measure clears the Long threshold.
• DM Impulse CASH – Triggers when deterioration crosses the Short threshold from above.
Configure alerts to fire on bar close if you want final (non-intrabar) decisions.
Strengths
• Actionable binary output – Long/Cash is unambiguous and easy to automate.
• Persistence-aware – Focuses on runs that endure, not one-bar excitement.
• Asset/timeframe agnostic – Works anywhere you trust directional-movement concepts (equities, futures, crypto, FX).
Limitations & cautions
• Not a reversal caller – It’s a regime classifier. If you need early bottoms/tops, pair it with your own exhaustion or liquidity tools.
• Parameter feasibility matters – If your thresholds are set beyond what your span can reasonably achieve, signals may rarely (or never) trigger.
• Chop happens – In mean-reverting or news-driven tape, expect more frequent flips unless you widen spans and thresholds.
• Intrabar movement – Like any responsive model, provisional intrabar states can appear before the bar closes. Use “bar close” alerts for finality.
Getting started (safe defaults you can adapt)
• Intraday bias – Shorter DM Length, modest span, moderately tight thresholds.
• Swing filter – Longer DM Length, wider span, stricter Long and sufficiently low Short.
• Conservative overlay – Keep thresholds firm and spans wide; use signals to scale risk rather than flip directions frequently.
Summary
DM Impulse Enhanced is a persistence-focused regime classifier built on directional-movement concepts. It answers a narrow question clearly “Risk-on or risk-off?” and stays with that answer until the evidence meaningfully changes. Use it as a bias switch, a portfolio risk overlay, or a gate for your existing entry logic, and size its spans/thresholds to the cadence of the market you trade.

Dip Hunter [BackQuant]Dip Hunter
What this tool does in plain language
Dip Hunter is a pullback detector designed to find high quality buy-the-dip opportunities inside healthy trends and to avoid random knife catches. It watches for a quick drop from a recent high, checks that the drop happened with meaningful participation and volatility, verifies short-term weakness inside a larger uptrend, then scores the setup and paints the chart so you can act with confidence. It also draws clean entry lines, provides a meter that shows dip strength at a glance, and ships with alerts that match common execution workflows.
How Dip Hunter thinks
It defines a recent swing reference, measures how far price has dipped off that high, and only looks at candidates that meet your minimum percentage drop.
It confirms the dip with real activity by requiring a volume spike and a volatility spike.
It checks structure with two EMAs. Price should be weak in the short term while the larger context remains constructive.
It optionally requires a higher-timeframe trend to be up so you focus on pullbacks in trending markets.
It bundles those checks into a score and shows you the score on the candles and on a gradient meter.
When everything lines up it paints a green triangle below the bar, shades the background, and (if you wish) draws a horizontal entry line at your chosen level.
Inputs and what they mean
Dip Hunter Settings
• Vol Lookback and Vol Spike : The script computes an average volume over the lookback window and flags a spike when current volume is a multiple of that average. A multiplier of 2.0 means today’s volume must be at least double the average. This helps filter noise and focuses on dips that other traders actually traded.
• Fast EMA and Slow EMA : Short-term and medium-term structure references. A dip is more credible if price closes below the fast EMA while the fast EMA is still below the slow EMA during the pullback. That is classic corrective behavior inside a larger trend.
• Price Smooth : Optional smoothing length for price-derived series. Use this if you trade very noisy assets or low timeframes.
• Volatility Len and Vol Spike (volatility) : The script checks both standard deviation and true range against their own averages. If either expands beyond your multiplier the market confirms the move with range.
• Dip % and Lookback Bars : The engine finds the highest high over the lookback window, then computes the percentage drawdown from that high to the current close. Only dips larger than your threshold qualify.
Trend Filter
• Enable Trend Filter : When on, Dip Hunter will only trigger if the market is in an uptrend.
• Trend EMA Period : The longer EMA that defines the session’s backbone trend.
• Minimum Trend Strength : A small positive slope requirement. In practice this means the trend EMA should be rising, and price should be above it. You can raise the value to be more selective.
Entries
• Show Entry Lines : Draws a horizontal guide from the signal bar for a fixed number of bars. Great for limit orders, scaling, or re-tests.
• Line Length (bars) : How far the entry guide extends.
• Min Gap (bars) : Suppresses new entry lines if another dip fired recently. Prevents clutter during choppy sequences.
• Entry Price : Choose the line level. “Low” anchors at the signal candle’s low. “Close” anchors at the signal close. “Dip % Level” anchors at the theoretical level defined by recent_high × (1 − dip%). This lets you work resting orders at a consistent discount.
Heat / Meter
• Color Bars by Score : Colors each candle using a red→white→green gradient. Red is overheated, green is prime dip territory, white is neutral.
• Show Meter Table : Adds a compact gradient strip with a pointer that tracks the current score.
• Meter Cells and Meter Position : Resolution and placement of the meter.
UI Settings
• Show Dip Signals : Plots green triangles under qualifying bars and tints the background very lightly.
• Show EMAs : Plots fast, slow, and the trend EMA (if the trend filter is enabled).
• Bullish, Bearish, Neutral colors : Theme controls for shapes, fills, and bar painting.
Core calculations explained simply
Recent high and dip percent
The script finds the highest high over Lookback Bars , calls it “recent high,” then calculates:
dip% = (recent_high − close) ÷ recent_high × 100.
If dip% is larger than Dip % , condition one passes.
Volume confirmation
It computes a simple moving average of volume over Vol Lookback . If current volume ÷ average volume > Vol Spike , we have a participation spike. It also checks 5-bar ROC of volume. If ROC > 50 the spike is forceful. This gets an extra score point.
Volatility confirmation
Two independent checks:
• Standard deviation of closes vs its own average.
• True range vs ATR.
If either expands beyond Vol Spike (volatility) the move has range. This prevents false triggers from quiet drifts.
Short-term structure
Price should close below the Fast EMA and the fast EMA should be below the Slow EMA at the moment of the dip. That is the anatomy of a pullback rather than a full breakdown.
Macro trend context (optional)
When Enable Trend Filter is on, the Trend EMA must be rising and price must be above it. The logic prefers “micro weakness inside macro strength” which is the highest probability pattern for buying dips.
Signal formation
A valid dip requires:
• dip% > threshold
• volume spike true
• volatility spike true
• close below fast EMA
• fast EMA below slow EMA
If the trend filter is enabled, a rising trend EMA with price above it is also required. When all true, the triangle prints, the background tints, and optional entry lines are drawn.
Scoring and visuals
Binary checks into a continuous score
Each component contributes to a score between 0 and 1. The script then rescales to a centered range (−50 to +50).
• Low or negative scores imply “overheated” conditions and are shaded toward red.
• High positive scores imply “ripe for a dip buy” conditions and are shaded toward green.
• The gradient meter repeats the same logic, with a pointer so you can read the state quickly.
Bar coloring
If you enable “Color Bars by Score,” each candle inherits the gradient. This makes sequences obvious. Red clusters warn you not to buy. White means neutral. Increasing green suggests the pullback is maturing.
EMAs and the trend EMA
• Fast EMA turns down relative to the slow EMA inside the pullback.
• Trend EMA stays rising and above price once the dip exhausts, which is your cue to focus on long setups rather than bottom fishing in downtrends.
Entry lines
When a fresh signal fires and no other signal happened within Min Gap (bars) , the indicator draws a horizontal level for Line Length bars. Use these lines for limit entries at the low, at the close, or at the defined dip-percent level. This keeps your plan consistent across instruments.
Alerts and what they mean
• Market Overheated : Score is deeply negative. Do not chase. Wait for green.
• Close To A Dip : Score has reached a healthy level but the full signal did not trigger yet. Prepare orders.
• Dip Confirmed : First bar of a fresh validated dip. This is the most direct entry alert.
• Dip Active : The dip condition remains valid. You can scale in on re-tests.
• Dip Fading : Score crosses below 0.5 from above. Momentum of the setup is fading. Tighten stops or take partials.
• Trend Blocked Signal : All dip conditions passed but the trend filter is offside. Either reduce risk or skip, depending on your plan.
How to trade with Dip Hunter
Classic pullback in uptrend
Turn on the trend filter.
Watch for a Dip Confirmed alert with green triangle.
Use the entry line at “Dip % Level” to stage a limit order. This keeps your entries consistent across assets and timeframes.
Initial stop under the signal bar’s low or under the next lower EMA band.
First target at prior swing high, second target at a multiple of risk.
If you use partials, trail the remainder under the fast EMA once price reclaims it.
Aggressive intraday scalps
Lower Dip % and Lookback Bars so you catch shallow flags.
Keep Vol Spike meaningful so you only trade when participation appears.
Take quick partials when price reclaims the fast EMA, then exit on Dip Fading if momentum stalls.
Counter-trend probes
Disable the trend filter if you intentionally hunt reflex bounces in downtrends.
Require strong volume and volatility confirmation.
Use smaller size and faster targets. The meter should move quickly from red toward white and then green. If it does not, step aside.
Risk management templates
Stops
• Conservative: below the entry line minus a small buffer or below the signal bar’s low.
• Structural: below the slow EMA if you aim for swing continuation.
• Time stop: if price does not reclaim the fast EMA within N bars, exit.
Position sizing
Use the distance between the entry line and your structural stop to size consistently. The script’s entry lines make this distance obvious.
Scaling
• Scale at the entry line first touch.
• Add only if the meter stays green and price reclaims the fast EMA.
• Stop adding on a Dip Fading alert.
Tuning guide by market and timeframe
Equities daily
• Dip %: 1.5 to 3.0
• Lookback Bars: 5 to 10
• Vol Spike: 1.5 to 2.5
• Volatility Len: 14 to 20
• Trend EMA: 100 or 200
• Keep trend filter on for a cleaner list.
Futures and FX intraday
• Dip %: 0.4 to 1.2
• Lookback Bars: 3 to 7
• Vol Spike: 1.8 to 3.0
• Volatility Len: 10 to 14
• Use Min Gap to avoid clusters during news.
Crypto
• Dip %: 3.0 to 6.0 for majors on higher timeframes, lower on 15m to 1h
• Lookback Bars: 5 to 12
• Vol Spike: 1.8 to 3.0
• ATR and stdev checks help in erratic sessions.
Reading the chart at a glance
• Green triangle below the bar: a validated dip.
• Light green background: the current bar meets the full condition.
• Bar gradient: red is overheated, white is neutral, green is dip-friendly.
• EMAs: fast below slow during the pullback, then reclaim fast EMA on the bounce for quality continuation.
• Trend EMA: a rising spine when the filter is on.
• Entry line: a fixed level to anchor orders and risk.
• Meter pointer: right side toward “Dip” means conditions are maturing.
Why this combination reduces false positives
Any single criterion will trigger too often. Dip Hunter demands a dip off a recent high plus a volume surge plus a volatility expansion plus corrective EMA structure. Optional trend alignment pushes odds further in your favor. The score and meter visualize how many of these boxes you are actually ticking, which is more reliable than a binary dot.
Limitations and practical tips
• Thin or illiquid symbols can spoof volume spikes. Use larger Vol Lookback or raise Vol Spike .
• Sideways markets will show frequent small dips. Increase Dip % or keep the trend filter on.
• News candles can blow through entry lines. Widen stops or skip around known events.
• If you see many back-to-back triangles, raise Min Gap to keep only the best setups.
Quick setup recipes
• Clean swing trader: Trend filter on, Dip % 2.0 to 3.0, Vol Spike 2.0, Volatility Len 14, Fast 20 EMA, Slow 50 EMA, Trend 100 EMA.
• Fast intraday scalper: Trend filter off, Dip % 0.7 to 1.0, Vol Spike 2.5, Volatility Len 10, Fast 9 EMA, Slow 21 EMA, Min Gap 10 bars.
• Crypto swing: Trend filter on, Dip % 4.0, Vol Spike 2.0, Volatility Len 14, Fast 20 EMA, Slow 50 EMA, Trend 200 EMA.
Summary
Dip Hunter is a focused pullback engine. It quantifies a real dip off a recent high, validates it with volume and volatility expansion, enforces corrective structure with EMAs, and optionally restricts signals to an uptrend. The score, bar gradient, and meter make reading conditions instant. Entry lines and alerts turn that read into an executable plan. Tune the thresholds to your market and timeframe, then let the tool keep you patient in red, selective in white, and decisive in green.
Williams VIX For Bottoms [DCD]Williams VIX Original - Authentic Volatility Fear Gauge
What This Indicator Does
The Williams VIX Fix measures market fear by calculating how far current lows deviate from recent highs, identifying potential market bottoms during high volatility periods. This implementation provides Larry Williams' original formula in its purest form.
How It Works
Core Formula:
VIX Fix = ((Highest High over 22 periods - Current Low) / Highest High over 22 periods) × 100
The calculation process:
Measures Relative Distance: Compares current low to highest high over lookback period
Converts to Percentage: Normalizes values for cross-market comparison
Applies Statistical Analysis: Uses Bollinger Bands (2 std dev) around VIX Fix values
Filters with Percentiles: 85th percentile threshold removes noise
Signal Generation
Green Flash Signals trigger when either condition is met:
VIX Fix exceeds upper Bollinger Band (2 standard deviations above 20-period MA)
VIX Fix exceeds Range High (85th percentile of recent values)
This dual-condition approach reduces false signals while capturing genuine volatility spikes.
What Makes This Original
Pure Formula Implementation: Uses Williams' exact original calculation without modifications
Dual Confirmation System: Combines Bollinger Bands with percentile analysis
Professional Visualization: Histogram display, background highlighting, and live value table
Comprehensive Alerts: Signal start/end notifications plus Green Flash alerts
How to Use
Primary Purpose: Spot high-probability reversal zones during market fear climaxes
Signal Interpretation:
Green triangle + background highlight = High volatility reversal zone
Higher VIX Fix values = Stronger fear/better reversal potential
Use with price action confirmation for best results
Optimal Settings:
Timeframes: 4H, Daily, Weekly
Markets: All (stocks, crypto, forex, commodities)
Combine with support levels and candlestick patterns
Key Parameters:
VIX Fix Length (22): Lookback period for highest high
Std Dev Multiplier (2.0): Bollinger Band sensitivity
Percentile High (0.85): Only top 15% of readings trigger signals
The VIX Fix excels at identifying market fear climaxes that coincide with significant price bottoms, making it valuable for swing traders seeking high-probability entries during market stress.

✅ "Reversal Up" / "Bearish Down": Extreme oversold/overbought reversals.
✅ "Prepare for PUTs/CALLs": Anticipation signals based on stochastic weakening + MACD histogram convergence.
Chart Setup:
The script draws clean shape labels on the chart for each event (e.g., "Up Trend", "Bearish") for clarity.
Background highlights show different sessions to help traders recognize the most liquid periods.
No other indicators are required on the chart.
Usage Notes:
This script is ideal for scalping or short intraday swing trades on liquid assets like indices, crypto, or forex.
Best results when combined with manual Support/Resistance marking (use "Prepare for PUTs/CALLs" near S/R zones).
Up and Downwhat is "Up and Down"?
It is an indicator designed to show you in detail on the chart and warn you when there is an increase or decrease in the market at a level that you consider important.
what it does?
When the price difference between a top and bottom is greater than the level you selected (the default input is 10 percent), it indicates this along with the percentage value on the chart. Then, it indicates the start and end points with lines so that you can see the change from where to where. It shows the price's current percentage distance from the last bottom or top in the upper right corner.
it also colors the candles so you can better understand how fast the price is moving. The greener the candles, the stronger the rise, and conversely, the greater the decline, the redder the candles. Of course, if you set an alarm, it will tell you in which trading pair, in which time period, at what percentage and in which direction there is a movement.
how it does it?
It uses a moving average with a short length to find bottoms and tops. It then measures the distance from the last peak to the bottom and expresses it as a percentage. It uses momentum using the moving average as a source to paint the candles. To compress this momentum between the values 255 and 0, I used a formula that I also used in my limited fisher transform work (because the inputs in the color.rgb function take values between 0 and 255). It was a bit challenging to use the lines correctly, but with the "ta.valuewhen" function and a little experimenting, they were I made sure they were drawn correctly.
how to use it?
It is quite simple to use. First, select the minimum interval you want to receive alarms. If you make this value too high, you will not receive any alarms; if you make it too low, you will receive too many alarms. Choose the range that will benefit you most for the trading pair you are using. Then all you have to do is set an alarm. When you set an alarm, leave the note section blank and the indicator will send you the necessary information.
Weekly Bottom Finder 1.0A Tool for Identifying Market Bottoms
The Weekly Bottom Finder indicator is designed for in-depth market analysis on weekly timeframes. Utilizing innovative methodology, it allows traders to identify potential zones of market bottoms, which often mark the beginning of new bullish trends. This indicator combines multiple advanced algorithms working in unison to deliver accurate and reliable signals.
What Makes Weekly Bottom Finder Unique?
Comprehensive Approach
The indicator integrates several analytical techniques, including:
Volume Analysis: Evaluates market activity to highlight significant interest.
Money Flow Index (MFI): Detects overbought and oversold zones.
ATR (Average True Range): Accounts for market volatility.
Advanced Internal Algorithms: Measures trend strength and consistency.
Accurate Bottom Detection
Signals are only generated when all conditions confirm a potential market bottom. This minimizes false signals that are common with many other indicators.
Visualization
Potential market bottom zones are displayed as light green vertical lines, making signals easy to identify without cluttering the chart.
Adaptability
Weekly Bottom Finder automatically adjusts to market conditions, considering volume, volatility, and market dynamics, making it a versatile tool for different markets and scenarios.
Key Features
Parameter Synchronization
The indicator uses finely tuned thresholds for trend analysis, effectively filtering out short-term market noise.
Balanced Settings
Users can adjust the "Bottom Sensitivity" parameter to customize the indicator to their needs, providing either more or fewer signals based on their trading strategy.
Weekly Timeframe
Specifically designed for long-term analysis on weekly candles, the indicator performs effectively across various markets, including cryptocurrencies like Bitcoin, traditional stock markets, and forex trading. It's worth testing the indicator's performance on different exchanges for the same cryptocurrency. Price movements can vary slightly between exchanges, resulting in a different number of signals.
Volume Filters
An additional volume filter ensures that signals are generated only in zones where the market exhibits genuine participant interest.
How Does Weekly Bottom Finder Work?
Calculating Bottom Zones
The indicator identifies potential bottoms when prices are in oversold zones (low MFI) and the market shows high volume, indicating buyer interest.
Double Signal Verification
Each signal is filtered through a system of rules, including ATR and volume analysis, to avoid false positives.
Additional Information
Weekly Bottom Finder helps traders pinpoint key moments when the market may be reaching its lowest points, creating potential entry opportunities. However, it does not provide guarantees and serves only as a supplementary tool for deeper market understanding.
Please Note: Weekly Bottom Finder is an analytical tool that should be used alongside your own research and risk management strategies.
Dynamic Momentum GaugeOverview
The Dynamic Momentum Gauge is an indicator designed to provide information and insights into the trend and momentum of a financial asset. While this indicator is not directional , it helps you know when there will be a trend, big move, or when momentum will have a run, and when you should take profits.
How It Works
This indicator calculates momentum and then removes the negative values to focus instead on when the big trend could likely happen and when it could end, or when you should enter a trade based on momentum or exit. Traders can basically use this indicator to time their market entries or exits, and align their strategies with momentum dynamics.
How To Use
As previously mentioned, this is not a directional indicator but more like a timing indicator. This indicator helps you find when the trend moves, and big moves in the markets will occur and its possibly best to exit the trades. For example, if you decide to enter a long trade if the Dynamic Momentum Gauge value is at an extreme low and another momentum indicator that you use has conditions that you would consider to long with, then this indicator is basically telling you that there isn't more space for the momentum to squeeze any longer, can only really expand from that point or stay where it currently is, but this is also a mean reverting process so it does tend to go back up from the low point.
Settings:
Length: This is the length of the momentum, by default its at 100.
Normalization Length: Length of the Normalization which ensures the the values fall within a consistent range.
Reversal Pivot
Overview
Introducing the Reversal Pivot indicator - a tool for identifying potential reversal points in price. This algorithm takes into account multiple factors, including price action, volume, and pivot points, to give you a clear and accurate picture of where the market is heading to.
How it works
The indicator gets expansions and the highs and lows and uses the conditions along with pivots to determine whether a reversal is possible or not. Then it gets the volume to determine how strong this chance of reversal is.
How to use
The Reversal Pivot indicator alone shouldn't be used to find reversal points but it helps you get a clear insight on where possible reversals could happen for example, you could use it with mean reversion strategies to find the best entries.
Red bars signal a bearish reversal
Green bars signal a bullish reversal
This here is an example of a long entry if you are trading lets say the mean. You can wait for a bullish reversal on the Histogram plot and then enter, a reversal could happen.
This is an example of a short entry if you are also trading the mean.
Other features
This indicator allows you to customize the colors, and the histogram. If you don't like the histogram then you can change its plot style to whatever you would like.

High Accuracy Tops/BottomsThis script may be TradingView's most accurate tops & bottoms indicator ever published.
Since it's experimental, I'm going to offer access to it free of charge. Send me a direct message requesting access.
5 years ago I joined TradingView and began studying price and the factors behind what causes bottoms and tops to form as well as how to find them. Fascinated by it, I spent years researching and discovered lot of different concepts that play an instrumental role with tops and bottoms: Market structure, price reactions, S/R , and much more. Through tons of experimenting, I ended up discovering a variety of NEW methods of identifying tops & bottoms. Through the years I've built up a script that has enabled the process for identifying tops and bottoms within the market to be much more convenient.
This is currently experimental and still has a lot of potential for improvement. The objective of the indicator is to help identify absolute tops and bottoms, and so far it does a great job whenever it provides a signal. It works for practically all types of securities, and surprisingly, even if they are in illiquid markets.
This indicator does NOT repaint whatsoever.
Below are a few examples of it across different security types as well as different timeframes:
Bitcoin
Gamestop (GME)
Luna / TetherUS
Crude Oil (Commodities)
Even spanning back centuries:
The indicator should be used for the following:
-Helping find potential entry points
-Timing trades and improving risk management
-Assisting with plotting top/bottom support and resistance levels
-For higher timeframes, use in conjunction with market news or global headlines
-For lower timeframes, use in conjunction with other indicators/trading tools
This is not a buy & sell indicator.. This is a TOOL to help identify accurate entry points and craft decisions based upon it.
Soon, I will be providing an updated version of it. It will include explicit details surrounding how it works and it's functions. My aim is to provide some level of value to the TradingView community in return for the great insight Tradingview and other platforms have insighted me with over price action.
Horns Pattern Identifier [LuxAlgo]The following script detects regular and inverted horn patterns. Detected patterns are displayed alongside their respective confirmation and take profit levels derived from the pattern measure rule. Breakout of the confirmation levels are highlighted with labels.
This script is a continuation of the educational idea regarding horns patterns.
Settings
Threshold: Controls the maximum allowed slope of the line connecting two horns, with higher values allowing a higher slope.
Usage
Horn patterns are chart patterns introduced by Bulkowski in his book "Encyclopedia of Chart Patterns". We covered this pattern in the following post: Horn Tops & Bottoms Patterns - How To Find and Trade Them
The script allows the user to quickly determine the presence of a regular or inverted horn pattern, alongside automatically displaying the confirmation level and take profits associated with a detected pattern. These are calculated based on the rules described by Bulkowski.
Horn patterns are highlighted by a line connecting the horns, the dotted lines represent the confirmation level, once the price crosses this level a label will appear, either bullish or bearish depending on the detected pattern. The dashed line represents the take profit level.

[UPRIGHT Trading] Top & Bottom Finder [Premium]Hello Traders,
Today I'm releasing an updated version of my previous Top & Bottom Finder (M.Right_Top & Bottom Finder 1.0).
The timing of this release couldn't be more perfect with everyone trying to 'find the bottom'. And the increased volatility that we've been seeing as of late.
Essentially, my indicator uses volatility and standard deviations among other things to assist you in finding the top or bottom of trends. You may also notice that it uses a lot of different strength indicators to provide an additional layer of complexity and confirmation.
Not just an RSI, but an RSI ema, smoothed OBV RSI's, and other volume RSI's. This is a truly unique and powerful tool for any Trader - whether you've just started or you've been trading for 20 years, I'm confident you will find value in the UPRIGHT Trading Top & Bottom Finder.
How to use it:
When it detects the trend Bottoming or Topping the histogram will change color. Bottom - Green/blue, Top - Red, (different shades of colors for different types of detection).
I've spent several hours tweaking the calculations and filters to enhance the accuracy, so this will be a noticeable upgrade from my original Top & Bottom Finder.
The length of the histogram bar can be an indication in itself, especially when it lines up close to one of the plotted lines and has noticeable direction change following this.
I've added a lot of text and pictures to help display it's capabilities, features, and customizability.
As always, it's fully customizable with alerts. Can toggle any thing on or off, and change the colors to suit your style.
3 Unique RSI's, different colors on the histogram will show different levels of detection. Some are more accurate in some timeframes than others. Bright Green and Bright Red are the most different from the rest.
I've jam-packed this indicator with Buy/Sell and Confirmation Signals and even background highlights (with colors that can mesh together). Feel free to find what works best for you.
RSI color indications and background highlights aid in confirmation. Also, as mentioned previously, sometimes a gray bar will land on a Fib and it will be a bottom signal.
The above chart should look like this
Good luck Traders,
Cheers,
Mike

Banker Chip Pro (MI04)The Banker Chip Pro (MI04) indicator is used to track the activity of the banker collecting shares in the stage when price unexpectedly drops drastically,
and also pump & dump action with strong pull-up in stock price.
Therefore, traders need to remain cautions while using this indicator in the trendless market to avoid losing thier capital.
Banker Chip (Red bar) represents the banker's start engaging in the collection phase, while the Banker Washout (Green bar) represents the banker's washout to accumulate more chips.
Thus, if a Red bar is found near the end of a stock's decline, there is a high probability will form a wave of a rebound.
The last bar method is what it's called.
The Pump (Purple bar) represents the banker boosting up the stock price to attract regular investors.
The Dump (Yellow bar) represents regular investors committed to the stock, which is banker profit-taking activity (dump) that may result the price to collapse later.
The Capitulation Zone is when investors give up the stock by selling all the positions during periods of decline. It is a hint of bottom in pricing and consequently a good opportunity to observe whether can form a mark up phase (higher pivot highs and higher pivot lows)
The Risk Level Line (RLL) represents the risk level zone from horizontal 0 to 100. When the RLL rises beyond 80, it is considered a risk zone, may lead to a downward move.
Thus, investors who intend to enter the market at the bottom might use 20 as a safety zone and pay attention to the stock's trend in the future.
Banker Chip Pro features a total of 3 signals which are ⏫️ push signal and 🚀 hot money signal for bottom strategy and ⏬️ dump signal for an exit strategy.
This is referred to as signal method.

Bitcoin Price Bottom IndicatorThis Indicator flashes up on bottoms of each Bitcoin market cycle. It’s suggesting, that the price of BTC finds strong support at the 200W SMA . Thats why it’s not flashing up in the first cycle, because there was not enough price data at that moment.
This Indicator uses price data from the weekly timeframe so for the best experience USE WEEKLY TIMEFRAME .
