GARCH Adaptive Volatility & Momentum Predictor
💡 I. Indicator Concept: GARCH Adaptive Volatility & Momentum Predictor
-----------------------------------------------------------------------------
The GARCH Adaptive Momentum Speed indicator provides a powerful, forward-looking
view on market risk and momentum. Unlike standard moving averages or static
volatility indicators (like ATR), GARCH forecasts the Conditional Volatility (σ_t)
for the next bar, based on the principle of volatility clustering.
The indicator consists of two essential components:
1. GARCH Volatility (Level): The primary forecast of the expected magnitude of
price movement (risk).
2. Vol. Speed (Momentum): The first derivative of the GARCH forecast, showing
whether market risk is accelerating or decelerating. This component is the
main visual signal, displayed as a dynamic histogram.
⚙️ II. Key Features and Adaptive Logic
-----------------------------------------------------------------------------
* Dynamic Coefficient Adaptation: The indicator automatically adjusts the GARCH
coefficients (α and β) based on the chart's timeframe (TF):
- Intraday TFs (M1-H4): Uses higher α and lower β for quicker reaction
to recent shocks.
- Daily/Weekly TFs (D, W): Uses lower α and higher β for a smoother,
more persistent long-term forecast.
* Momentum Visualization: The Vol. Speed component is plotted as a dynamic
histogram (fill) that automatically changes color based on the direction of
acceleration (Green for up, Red for down).
📊 III. Interpretation Guide
-----------------------------------------------------------------------------
- GARCH Volatility (Blue Line): The predicted level of market risk. Use this to
gauge overall position sizing and stop loss width.
- Vol. Speed (Green Histogram): Momentum is ACCELERATING (Risk is increasing rapidly).
A strong signal that momentum is building, often preceding a breakout.
- Vol. Speed (Red Histogram): Momentum is DECELERATING (Risk is contracting).
Indicates momentum is fading, often associated with market consolidation.
🎯 IV. Trading Application
-----------------------------------------------------------------------------
- Breakout Timing: Look for a strong, high GREEN histogram bar. This suggests
the volatility pressure is increasing rapidly, and a breakout may be imminent.
- Consolidation: Small, shrinking RED histogram bars signal that market energy
is draining, ideal for tight consolidation patterns.

TDZZ ETH 15min Vault: No-Loss Martin Gale StrategyStrategy Overview
The ETH 15min Vault is an enhanced, high-frequency Martin Gale strategy designed specifically for Ethereum on the 15-minute chart. Its core innovation lies in integrating pre-calculated margin management with a multi-layer exit system, transforming the traditional high-risk Martingale approach into a controlled, calculated growth engine. The strategy aims for sustainable compound growth of small capitals (e.g., 1000U) in ranging markets while systematically eliminating the risk of account blow-up.
Core Concept: The "No-Loss" Guarantee
Unlike conventional Martingale systems that risk infinite losses, this strategy pre-calculates and logically reserves the total margin required for all potential layers (configurable, e.g., up to 30) at the initial entry. This ensures sufficient capital is always available for the next averaging order, preventing liquidation due to margin shortage. Combined with intelligent, proactive take-profit and safety-net closures, it creates a theoretically "No-Loss" framework for the Martin Gale method.
Key Mechanisms
1、Smart Position Averaging:
Averaging distances expand geometrically (configurable multiplier), preventing rapid layer depletion during sharp drops.
Averaging order size increases progressively (configurable multiplier) to effectively lower the break-even point.
2、Dynamic Multi-Stage Exit Logic:
Rebound TP: Partially closes a position when price rebounds a certain percentage from its entry, locking in profits early during oscillations.
Cycle TP: Closes the remaining position upon reaching the primary profit target, which is dynamically recalculated after each average to reflect the new aggregate cost.
Safety-Net Close (Defense Mode): Activates after a defined number of averages. Triggers a full exit if price: a) rallies significantly from the lowest point, b) retraces from a recent high, or c) fails to make a new low within a set time. This forms the final protective layer for capital preservation.
Main Advantages
✅ True Risk Isolation: Transforms Martingale's "unlimited risk" into a "defined and manageable drawdown" via pre-calculated margins and safety-net exits.
✅ Active Profit Capture: The "Rebound TP" mechanism increases win rate and capital efficiency in ranging markets.
✅ Adaptive to Volatility: Adjustable parameters for averaging distance and size allow tuning for different market conditions.
✅ High-Frequency Compounding Potential: Operates on the 15-min timeframe, offering numerous opportunities to complete profit cycles in consolidating phases.
Configuration & Parameters
Key adjustable inputs include: Initial Capital %, Averaging Distance % and Multiplier, Order Size Multiplier, Max Layers, Take-Profit %, Rebound Close %, and all Defense Mode thresholds.
This strategy significantly reduces liquidation risk through its design but does not eliminate trading risk. Substantial drawdowns can occur during strong, sustained trends. "No-Loss" refers to prevention of margin-call liquidation, not guaranteed profitability. Always conduct thorough backtesting and forward testing in a simulated environment before committing real capital. Past performance is not indicative of future results. Trade responsibly.

Running idea so there will likely be revisions to the z scoring to possibly a different method and the atan angle represented in the code will also likely be changed at some point as to maybe a regression method. These changes will take time as this is only a secondary platform for me not the main source of data. In saying that the table has the data representing the log returns of an asset of n bars which I decided on over the original more accurate daily, weekly and monthly close points which the user can always specify using this method if wanting to be more accurate with the standard method of momentum returns factor.
Renko with Multi-Timeframe RSI (Non-Repaint)This is a Renko-based Multi-Timeframe RSI indicator with Inverted Volatility Oscillator that combines three technical analysis concepts to provide trading signals without repainting issues.
Core Components
1. Renko Chart Foundation
Instead of using time-based candles, this indicator creates Renko bricks based on price movement:
Green brick = Price moved up by one brick size
Red brick = Price moved down by one brick size
Brick size = Either ATR-based (dynamic) or fixed value
Key advantage: Filters out market noise by ignoring time and small price fluctuations
Non-Repaint Feature: Only processes confirmed bars (barstate.isconfirmed), ensuring signals don't disappear or change after they appear.
2. Volume-Weighted RSI (Multiple Timeframes)
Three RSI calculations:
a) Renko RSI (Purple line)
Calculated directly from Renko brick close prices
Shows momentum based on actual brick formations
More stable than traditional RSI since it's based on significant price moves
b) 1-Hour RSI (Blue line)
Standard RSI from 1-hour timeframe
Provides medium-term momentum context
c) 4-Hour RSI (Orange line)
Standard RSI from 4-hour timeframe
Shows longer-term momentum trends
RSI Interpretation:
Above 70: Overbought (potential sell signal)
Below 30: Oversold (potential buy signal)
Above 50: Bullish momentum
Below 50: Bearish momentum
3. Inverted Volatility Oscillator (Yellow line)
Measures the opposite of price volatility in Renko brick closes:
What It Actually Is:
Simply calculates volatility (standard deviation of rate of change)
Normalizes it to 0-100 scale
Inverts it (100 minus volatility)
Result: When prices are volatile, the number is LOW. When prices are calm, the number is HIGH.
This is just repackaged volatility:
Above 80: Low volatility period (calm, stable prices)
50-80: Below-average volatility
20-50: Above-average volatility
Below 20: High volatility period (choppy, erratic prices)
The "Fear/Greed" Marketing: The assumption is that high volatility = panic/fear, and low volatility = complacency/greed. But this is just a narrative wrapper around basic volatility measurement. Markets can be:
Highly volatile during euphoric rallies (not fear)
Very calm during sustained downtrends (not greed)
The relationship between volatility and sentiment is assumed, not measured.
How It Works
Signal Generation
Buy Signals occur when:
Renko RSI < 30 (oversold) OR
1H RSI < 30 OR
4H RSI < 30 OR
Inverted Volatility < 20 (high volatility = "extreme fear")
Sell Signals occur when:
Renko RSI > 70 (overbought) OR
1H RSI > 70 OR
4H RSI > 70 OR
Inverted Volatility > 80 (low volatility = "extreme greed")
Exit Conditions:
Brick color changes (green→red or red→green)
Any RSI enters opposite extreme zone
Multiple confirmations increase signal reliability
What You're Actually Getting
Legitimately Useful:
Renko filtering: Real noise reduction
Multi-timeframe RSI: Valid momentum confirmation across timeframes
Non-repainting: Reliable signal timing
Marketing Fluff: The "Fear/Greed Index" is:
Just normalized, inverted volatility
Given emotional labels to sound sophisticated
Based on an assumption (volatility = fear) that's often wrong
No actual measurement of fear, greed, sentiment, or psychology
Adds no information you couldn't get from a standard volatility indicator
Reality Check
What the indicator claims: "Fear/Greed Index measures market psychology"
What it actually does: Calculates volatility of Renko closes, flips the scale, and slaps emotional labels on different levels
Better description: "Low Volatility Warning" (>80) and "High Volatility Warning" (<20)
The indicator works fine as a multi-timeframe RSI system with Renko smoothing. The volatility component can be useful for identifying regime changes. But calling it "Fear/Greed" is pure marketing - it's just repackaged volatility with psychology buzzwords.
Bottom Line
Use this for:
Renko trend following (genuinely useful)
Multi-timeframe momentum confirmation (valid approach)
Volatility regime detection (what the yellow line actually measures)
Don't use this thinking:
It reads market psychology (it doesn't)
It's measuring actual fear or greed (it isn't)
It's anything more than inverted volatility (it's not)

S&P 500: 300-Day Trend FollowerSIMPLE STRAT FOR MACRO ETFs
The 300-day Moving Average is a very slow, long-term filter.
Pros: It keeps you in the market during massive bull runs (like 2013-2019) without shaking you out on minor dips.
Cons: It is slow to react. If the market crashes fast (like COVID in 2020), price might drop 15-20% before it crosses the line and tells you to sell.
Selected Days Indicator V3-TrDoes the stock drop every Wednesday? Do March months always move similarly? Does the 1st week of the month behave differently?
Do you ever say "it always makes this move in these months"? Don't you want to see more clearly whether it actually makes this move or not? Don't you want to see and test periodically repeating price patterns?
Hisse her Çarşamba düşüyor mu? Mart ayları hep benzer mi hareket ediyor? Ayın 1. haftası farklı mı davranıyor?
Bazen "bu aylarda hep bu hareketi yapıyor" dediğiniz oluyor mu? Gerçekten de bu hareketi yapıp yapmadığını daha net görmek istemez misiniz? Periyodik tekrarlayan fiyat kalıplarını görmek ve test etmek istemiyor musunuz?
1. Problem
Some stocks or crypto assets exhibit systematic behaviors on certain days, weeks, or months. But it's hard to see - everything is mixed together on the chart. This indicator isolates the days/weeks/months you want and shows only them. Hides everything else.
2. How It Works
Three-layer filter: Day (Monday, Tuesday...), Week (1st, 2nd, 3rd week of the month), Month (January, February...). Select what you want, let the rest disappear. Example: Show only Thursdays of March-June-September. Or compare every 1st week of the month. View as candlestick, line, or column chart.
3. What's It Good For?
Test "end-of-month effect". Find "day-of-the-week anomaly". Analyze crypto volatility by days. See seasonality in commodities. Discover patterns specific to your own strategy. Past data doesn't guarantee the future but provides statistical advantage.
Box Theory StrategyHere is an explanation of the Box Theory trading strategy.
The Core Philosophy
This strategy is based on the idea that the market is a battle between buyers and sellers, and that these groups often defend the same price levels they used previously. Instead of trying to predict every move, this method focuses on trading only at the "extremes" where the probabilities are highest, while avoiding the middle of the chart where price action is random.
1. The Setup: Drawing the Box
To use this strategy, you must define the "playing field" for the day before you take any trades.
Top of the Box: Draw a line at the Previous Day’s High.
Bottom of the Box: Draw a line at the Previous Day’s Low.
Center Line: Draw a line roughly in the middle of these two points.
This box represents the established range where the market recently found value.
2. The Three Zones & Rules
Once the box is drawn, the chart is divided into three zones. Each zone dictates a specific action.
Zone 1: The Top (Resistance / Sell Zone)
What it represents: This is where sellers previously stepped in and pushed the price down. It is a known area of supply.
The Rule: NO BUYING.
If the price rallies to this level, you should look for Short/Sell opportunities.
Why? Buying here means purchasing at a price that was previously rejected. The probability of a reversal (price going down) is high.
Zone 2: The Bottom (Support / Buy Zone)
What it represents: This is where buyers previously stepped in and pushed the price up. It is a known area of demand.
The Rule: NO SELLING.
If the price drops to this level, you should look for Long/Buy opportunities.
Why? Selling here means shorting into support. The probability of a bounce (price going up) is high.
Zone 3: The Middle (Indecision Zone)
What it represents: This is the area of noise and confusion. Neither buyers nor sellers have clear control here.
The Rule: DO NOT TRADE.
Why? In the middle of the range, the odds of the price going up or down are roughly 50/50. Trading here is considered gambling because you do not have a statistical edge.
3. Execution: How to Trade
The Entry
Short Setup: Wait for the price to touch or slightly pierce the Top of the Box. Enter a short position when you see the price failing to break out (e.g., leaving a wick and closing back inside the box).
Long Setup: Wait for the price to touch or slightly pierce the Bottom of the Box. Enter a long position when you see the price failing to break down (e.g., bouncing off the level).
Stop Loss (Risk Management)
This strategy offers a very clear invalidation point.
For Shorts: Place your Stop Loss just above the box.
For Longs: Place your Stop Loss just below the box.
Logic: If the price clearly breaks out of the box, the range is broken, and you want to exit the trade immediately with a small loss.
Take Profit (Targets)
First Target: The Center Line. This is a safe place to take some profit or move your stop loss to breakeven.
Main Target: The opposite side of the box (e.g., if you sold at the top, target the bottom).
4. Handling Gaps (The "Cheater Box")
If the market opens significantly higher or lower than the previous day's range (a large gap), the original box may be too far away to be useful.
Adjustment: In this scenario, you can draw a new box using the highest and lowest price points of the current trading session so far.
Once this new range is established, apply the same rules: Sell the high, Buy the low, and avoid the middle.
