HaP MACDHaP MACD - Advanced DEMA Assisted Signal Indicator
Overview
The HaP MACD is an evolution of the classic MACD, designed for traders who demand faster response times and clearer trend visualisations. By integrating DEMA (Double Exponential Moving Average) logic into the standard MACD framework, this indicator filters out noise and highlights momentum shifts with a unique color-coded dot system.
How It Works
The indicator calculates two types of MACD: a standard one for the main lines and a DEMA-based one for signal generation. This dual approach ensures you stay in the trend while being alerted the moment the momentum starts to fade.
Visual Guide & Color Logic
The signal dots are placed directly on the MACD line to guide your decisions:
🔵 Blue Dot: The Entry Signal. Appears when DEMA conditions first align for a bullish move.
🟢 Green Dot: Strong Momentum. The trend is active and the MACD value is increasing.
🟠 Orange Dot: Warning Signal. The bullish trend is still active, but the momentum is slowing down (MACD is lower than the previous bar).
🔴 Red Dot: Exit Signal. The bullish condition has ended. It’s time to consider closing the position or tightening stops.
Key Features
Reduced Lag: DEMA integration provides earlier signals than standard EMA-based MACDs.
Trend Monitoring: Easily distinguish between a healthy trend (Green) and a tiring trend (Orange).
Customizable: Choose between EMA and SMA for both the oscillator and signal calculations.
Crossover Markers: Optional triangle markers for classic MACD crossovers (can be enabled in settings).

CSA / Infinity MKR / Final Pro [NPR21}Title: CSA – Precision Infinity MKR & Confluence Dashboard
The Institutional Edge: Multi-Kernel Smoothing & Real-Time Confluence
The CSA Precision Infinity MKR is an advanced trend-following suite that replaces traditional, lagging EMAs with a high-performance Multi-Kernel Regression (MKR) engine. Designed for the "Top Center" of the chart, this script features our proprietary Infinity Bridge —a logic system that ensures your trend signal never breaks or snaps, tracking price action with surgical precision directly to the live candle.
Key Technical Features
1
7-Kernel Smoothing Engine: Unlike standard indicators, you can cycle through 17 different mathematical kernels (Sinc, Gaussian, Lorentzian, etc.) to match the specific volatility of any asset class, from high-cap Stocks to volatile Crypto.
The Infinity Bridge: We solved the "broken line" issue. Our script bridges historical regression math with live price data, providing a continuous, seamless trend line that never lags behind the current price.
15-Indicator Confluence HUD: A professional "Heads-Up Display" tracks 15 momentum and trend metrics (Heikin Ashi, SuperTrend, TTM, RSI, etc.) simultaneously. It does the heavy lifting so you can focus on execution.
High-Vis Neon Aesthetics: Built for dark-mode traders. Featuring Neon Fluorescent Green and Bright Red trend lines with a high-contrast dark green dashboard for zero eye strain.
Trader’s Manual: How to Trade the Suite
Step 1: Identify the Regime (The MKR Line)
Bullish: When the MKR line is Neon Green , you are in a buy-only regime.
Bearish: When the MKR line is Bright Red , you are in a sell-only regime.
The Curve: Watch the "hook" of the line. When the line begins to curve toward price, a trend shift is imminent.
Step 2: Confirm Confluence (The Dashboard)
Look at the CONFIRMED tally on the far right of the HUD:
Strong Buy (11/15 – 15/15): Deep green signal. High-probability entry.
Caution (7/15 – 10/15): Orange signal. The trend is weakening or consolidating.
No Trade (Below 7/15) : Red signal. High risk of "chop" or reversal. Avoid new entries.
Step 3: Check the "Non-Trending" Filter
Look for the Non-Trending cell. If it is Dark Blue , the market has officially entered a "Trending State." If it is Gray, the market is sideways, and signals should be taken with caution.
Settings & Customization
Thickness: Defaulted to 3px for a strong chart presence.
Styles: Fully adjustable Solid, Dashed, and Dotted options in the Inputs tab.
Alerts: Built-in alert conditions for Strong Confluence (11/15) and State Flips (Long to Short).
Quant VWAP System 3.8 This is the lower-indicator companion to the "Quant VWAP System." While the main chart tells you where the price is, this oscillator tells you how statistically significant the move is.
It uses a Z-Score algorithm to normalize price action. This means it ignores dollar amounts and instead measures how many Standard Deviations (SD) the price is away from its mean (VWAP). This allows you to instantly spot "Overbought" or "Oversold" conditions on any asset (Bitcoin, Forex, or Stocks) without needing to guess.
Key Features:
1. Normalized Extremes (The "Kill Zones")
±2.0 SD: These dotted lines represent statistical extremes. When the signal line crosses above +2.0, the asset is mathematically expensive (Overbought). When it crosses below -2.0, it is mathematically cheap (Oversold).
The Logic: Price rarely sustains movement beyond 2 Standard Deviations without a reversion or a pause.
2. The Squeeze Radar (Yellow Dots)
Volatility Detection: A row of Yellow Dots appearing on the center line indicates a "Squeeze."
What it means: The Standard Deviation bands are compressing. Energy is building.
Warning: DO NOT trade Mean Reversion when you see Yellow Dots. A squeeze often leads to a violent breakout. Wait for the dots to disappear to confirm the direction of the explosion.
3. Momentum Coloring
Green Line: Z-Score is rising (Bullish Momentum).
Red Line: Z-Score is falling (Bearish Momentum).
This helps you spot divergences (e.g., Price makes a Higher High, but the Oscillator makes a Lower High = Exhaustion).
How to Trade with It
Strategy A: The "Zero Bounce" (Trend Continuation)
Scenario: You are in a Bull Trend.
Signal: The Oscillator line pulls back to the Zero Line (White), turns Green, and curls upward.
Meaning: Price has tested the average (VWAP) and buyers have stepped in. This is a high-probability entry for trend continuation.
Strategy B: The "Extreme Fade" (Reversion)
Scenario: The Oscillator pushes deep into the Red Zone (+2.0 SD).
Signal: The line turns Red and crosses back down below the +2.0 dotted line. A small Red Triangle will appear.
Meaning: The statistical extension has failed, and price is likely snapping back to the mean.
Strategy C: Squeeze Breakout
Scenario: Yellow Dots appear on the center line.
Action: Stop trading. Wait.
Signal: The dots disappear, and the line shoots aggressively through +1.0 SD (Long) or -1.0 SD (Short). Ride the momentum.

MSO - Market Stress Oscillator [WavesUnchained]MSO - Market Stress Oscillator
Bidirectional stress oscillator built on WVF + Z-score, with JMA/ADX filters, regime bias, and validated follow-through. Designed to expose downside panic vs upside euphoria and measure whether the market accepts or rejects each stress event.
Quick Setup
- Stress Color Mode : Intuitive (Downside=green, Upside=red) or Technical (classic colors).
CORE CONCEPT
- Downside stress : price flushes below WVF baseline (panic)
- Upside stress : price stretches above WVF baseline (euphoria)
- Stress is normalized via Z-score for cross-asset/timeframe robustness
ENGINE (BI-WVF + Z-SCORE)
- WVF Long and Short computed separately (panic vs euphoria)
- Z-score window normalizes extremes
- Thresholds are TF-aware (15m / 1h / 4h / D / W / M)
QUALITY FILTERS
- JMA trend filter (slope-based, low-lag)
- ADX minimum for trend strength
- Min Extreme Duration to avoid 1-bar noise
- Cooldown to prevent signal clustering
ACCEPT / REJECT LOGIC
- Events are evaluated after reactBars (forward follow-through)
- Accepted : follow-through >= minFollowATR
- Rejected : follow-through < minFollowATR
- Scores (0..1) optionally plotted as acceptance strength
BIAS / REGIME CONTEXT
- Bias line : zL - zS (who dominates)
- Bias band : regime threshold (only meaningful outside band)
- HTF Wind : higher-timeframe bias flip (JMA smoothed)
- Clarity Label : regime entry aligned with HTF + absBias threshold
VISUALIZATION
- Stress Lines : Red = downside stress (panic), Green = upside stress (euphoria)
- Bias Line : zL - zS (who dominates). Neutral inside band, colored outside.
- Bias Band : regime threshold. Fill shows when bias is usable.
- Zones : boxes at peak events (history preserved, FIFO capped)
- Chart Labels : DA/DR/UA/UR (or LA/LR/SA/SR) at peaks
- Lines : reaction window + peak level lines (FIFO capped)
STRESS COLOR MODE
- Intuitive : Downside stress = green, Upside stress = red (opportunity mapping)
- Technical : Downside stress = red, Upside stress = green (classic convention)
- This setting is visual only ; logic, bias, and signals are unchanged
HOW TO USE
1. Read the stress lines : red spikes = panic risk, green spikes = euphoria risk.
2. Check bias : outside the band = usable regime; inside = noise.
3. Use DA/DR/UA/UR :
- DA/UA = stress accepted (follow-through confirmed)
- DR/UR = stress rejected (weak follow-through)
4. Add HTF wind : prefer signals aligned with HTF bias.
5. Tune presets by TF; use manual TF override for testing.

Pivot-based signal confirmation to filter noise
Gold Scalping RSI Pro📌 Overview
**Gold Scalping RSI Pro V2** is a specialized RSI-based oscillator designed specifically for **scalping Gold (XAUUSD)** on **1-minute and 5-minute timeframes**. Unlike standard RSI implementations, this indicator incorporates several key optimizations that address the unique characteristics of gold price action.
This is **NOT a simple RSI mashup**. It's a complete signal generation system that combines:
1. **Optimized RSI calculation** (Period 8, HLC3 source)
2. **Multi-timeframe trend filtering** (Higher timeframe EMA confirmation)
3. **Smart signal quality controls** (Pivot detection, cooldown periods, depth requirements)
4. **Price action confirmation** (Candle color validation)
---
### The Problem This Indicator Solves
Standard RSI settings (Period 14, Close source, 30/70 levels) were designed for daily charts and don't work well for:
- **Fast-moving instruments like Gold** (too slow, signals lag behind price)
- **Short timeframes (1m/5m)** (too much noise, false signals)
- **Scalping strategies** (need faster reaction without sacrificing quality)
Gold has a unique character - it moves slower than crypto but produces sharp, sudden spikes (fake wicks) that generate false RSI signals when using standard Close-based calculations.
---
### 🔧 Core Methodology & Calculations
#### 1. RSI Optimization (Period 8 + HLC3 Source)
**Why Period 8 instead of 14?**
```
Standard RSI 14 = Too slow for 1m/5m scalping (signals arrive after the move)
RSI 2-3 = Too fast/noisy (constant false signals)
RSI 7-9 = Optimal range for Gold scalping (fast enough to catch moves, smooth enough to filter noise)
```
This indicator uses **RSI Period 8** as the default, which provides the ideal balance between speed and signal clarity.
**Why HLC3 instead of Close?**
```
Close source = Captures every wick/spike (noisy, many false breakouts)
HLC3 source = (High + Low + Close) / 3 = Smooths out fake wicks while preserving trend direction
```
The HLC3 source acts as a **natural noise filter** for Gold's characteristic spike patterns. This is the single most important optimization - the difference between usable and unusable signals on Gold.
#### 2. Dynamic 40/60 Levels (Not Standard 30/70)
Standard 30/70 levels rarely get hit on trending instruments in short timeframes. This creates two problems:
- Waiting for RSI 30 in an uptrend = missing 90% of entries
- RSI oscillating between 40-60 = "dead zone" with no signals
**This indicator uses 40/60 levels:**
- **40 Level (Bullish Support)**: In an uptrend, RSI pulling back to 40 indicates a potential continuation entry
- **60 Level (Bearish Resistance)**: In a downtrend, RSI rallying to 60 indicates a potential short entry
This is based on the concept that in a trend, RSI rarely reaches extreme levels - instead, it "bounces" off dynamic support/resistance levels.
#### 3. Multi-Timeframe Trend Filter
**The Golden Rule: Trade WITH the trend, not against it.**
This indicator implements a **Higher Timeframe (HTF) trend filter**:
```
User-selectable HTF (Default: 60 minutes / 1 hour)
↓
Calculate EMA 200 on HTF
↓
If HTF Price > HTF EMA 200 → Trend is BULLISH (only BUY signals allowed)
If HTF Price < HTF EMA 200 → Trend is BEARISH (only SELL signals allowed)
```
Using `request.security()` with `barmerge.lookahead_off` ensures no future data is used.
#### 4. Signal Quality Controls
To prevent signal spam and ensure only high-quality entries, this indicator implements:
**A. Deep RSI Requirement**
```
BUY signal requires: RSI must have dropped below 35 (adjustable) in recent bars
SELL signal requires: RSI must have risen above 65 (adjustable) in recent bars
```
This ensures we're catching **actual reversals from extremes**, not minor oscillations.
**B. Cooldown Period**
```
After a BUY signal → Wait X bars before next BUY (default: 10 bars)
After a SELL signal → Wait X bars before next SELL (default: 10 bars)
```
This prevents multiple signals on the same move and reduces overtrading.
**C. Pivot Detection (Lookback)**
The indicator uses `ta.lowest()` and `ta.highest()` functions over a lookback period to confirm that RSI has actually reached a significant low/high before generating a signal.
#### 5. Candle Confirmation (Optional)
When enabled, signals require price action confirmation:
- **BUY signal**: Current candle must be green (Close > Open)
- **SELL signal**: Current candle must be red (Close < Open)
This adds an extra layer of confirmation and reduces false signals during consolidation.
---
### 📊 Signal Generation Logic
**BUY Signal fires when ALL conditions are met:**
1. ✓ HTF Trend is BULLISH (Price > EMA200 on higher timeframe)
2. ✓ RSI crosses ABOVE 40 level (crossover)
3. ✓ RSI had a "deep dip" below 35 in recent bars
4. ✓ Cooldown period has passed since last BUY
5. ✓ (Optional) Current candle is bullish (green)
**SELL Signal fires when ALL conditions are met:**
1. ✓ HTF Trend is BEARISH (Price < EMA200 on higher timeframe)
2. ✓ RSI crosses BELOW 60 level (crossunder)
3. ✓ RSI had a "high peak" above 65 in recent bars
4. ✓ Cooldown period has passed since last SELL
5. ✓ (Optional) Current candle is bearish (red)
---
### 🎯 How to Use This Indicator
**Recommended Setup:**
- **Chart**: XAUUSD (Gold Spot)
- **Timeframe**: 1 minute or 5 minutes
- **Chart Type**: Standard Candlestick (NOT Heikin Ashi, Renko, etc.)
**Step-by-Step Trading Process:**
1. Check the **trend panel** (top-right) - only trade in the direction shown
2. Wait for a **pullback** (price retracing against trend)
3. Watch for the **signal** (green triangle for BUY, red triangle for SELL)
4. Enter on signal with appropriate stop-loss
5. Manage the trade according to your risk management rules
**What the Signals Mean:**
- **Green Triangle (▲)**: RSI bounced from oversold in an uptrend - potential long entry
- **Red Triangle (▼)**: RSI rejected from overbought in a downtrend - potential short entry

QMF- Market Structure & Signal Suite [BullByte]QUANTUM MOMENTUM FUSION - Market Structure and Signal Suite
OVERVIEW
Quantum Momentum Fusion is a comprehensive market analysis framework built around a multi-dimensional momentum oscillator. This indicator was designed to give traders a complete analytical workspace in a single tool, combining momentum measurement, market structure identification, trendline analysis, divergence detection, and multi-timeframe context into one unified system.
The core philosophy behind QMF is that successful trading decisions come from understanding multiple aspects of market behavior simultaneously, not from relying on any single indicator or signal. The oscillator serves as the analytical foundation, and every other component builds upon it to create a complete picture of current market conditions.
This description will walk through each component of the indicator, explaining what it measures, why that information matters, and how to interpret what you see on the chart. Whether you are an experienced trader familiar with oscillator analysis or newer to technical indicators, each section aims to make the concepts accessible and practical.
THE QUANTUM ENGINE: UNDERSTANDING THE CORE OSCILLATOR (why its original and not a mashup)
At the heart of this indicator is the Quantum Momentum Fusion oscillator, displayed in its own pane below the price chart. Unlike traditional oscillators that measure a single aspect of price behavior, the QMF oscillator synthesizes four distinct market dimensions into one unified reading.
WHAT IS AN OSCILLATOR
For those less familiar with the term, an oscillator is a technical indicator that fluctuates between defined boundaries, typically showing whether an asset is experiencing strong buying pressure, strong selling pressure, or neutral conditions. The QMF oscillator moves between 0 and 100, with 50 representing the neutral midpoint.
When the oscillator is high (above 70), it suggests the market has experienced significant upward momentum and may be approaching exhaustion. When low (below 30), it suggests the market has experienced significant downward momentum and may be due for a bounce. The space between these extremes represents normal market fluctuation.
THE FOUR DIMENSIONS
What makes the QMF oscillator different from standard momentum indicators is that it combines four separate measurements into its calculation. Each dimension captures a different aspect of market behavior:
VELOCITY DIMENSION
This measures how quickly momentum itself is changing. Think of it like acceleration in a car. Knowing the car is moving forward (direction) is useful, but knowing whether the driver is pressing the accelerator or the brake (acceleration) tells you what is likely to happen next. The velocity dimension calculates the rate of change of the rate of change, providing early warning when momentum is about to shift direction. In practical terms, this can show momentum weakening before price actually reverses.
Why it matters: Price can continue in one direction for a while even after the underlying momentum starts to fade. By measuring acceleration, you can identify potential turning points earlier than with simple momentum indicators.
How it appears: This dimension is calculated internally and combined with the others. You do not see it separately, but its effect shows in the oscillator responding earlier to momentum shifts.
VOLUME DIMENSION
This measures price movement weighted by trading volume. A price move accompanied by high volume has different significance than the same price move on low volume. High volume suggests conviction and participation from larger traders. Low volume suggests the move may lack follow-through.
The volume dimension multiplies price change by a volume ratio (current volume compared to average volume), giving greater weight to moves that have volume confirmation behind them.
Why it matters: Volume often precedes price. Strong volume on a move suggests institutional participation and increases the probability that the move will continue. Weak volume on a move suggests it may be easily reversed.
How it appears: Moves with strong volume conviction will push the oscillator more definitively, while low-volume moves will have muted effect on the reading.
VOLATILITY DIMENSION
This normalizes price movement against the current volatility environment. Markets go through periods of high volatility (large price swings) and low volatility (small price swings). A 1% move during a low volatility period is more significant than a 1% move during a high volatility period.
The volatility dimension divides price change by Average True Range (ATR), which measures typical price range. This tells you whether current movement is significant relative to what is normal for this market right now.
Why it matters: Without volatility normalization, the oscillator would react the same way to all price moves regardless of context. By adjusting for volatility, the oscillator identifies moves that are genuinely significant versus normal noise within the current regime.
How it appears: During quiet markets, smaller price moves can still register as significant if they exceed normal volatility. During volatile markets, the oscillator will not overreact to moves that are within expected range.
SESSION DIMENSION
This tracks where price is positioned relative to the session Volume Weighted Average Price (VWAP). VWAP represents the average price at which trading has occurred during the session, weighted by volume. Institutional traders often use VWAP as a benchmark for fair value.
When price is consistently above VWAP, it suggests buyers are willing to pay above average prices, indicating accumulation. When price is consistently below VWAP, it suggests sellers are accepting below average prices, indicating distribution.
Why it matters: VWAP positioning provides insight into whether institutional traders are likely accumulating or distributing. Price repeatedly returning to and bouncing from VWAP can indicate support, while price repeatedly failing at VWAP can indicate resistance.
How it appears: The session dimension contributes bullish readings when price maintains above VWAP and bearish readings when price maintains below VWAP.
ADAPTIVE WEIGHTING
The four dimensions are combined using configurable weights, and the system can operate in Adaptive Mode. When Adaptive Mode is enabled, the indicator automatically adjusts its sensitivity based on the current volatility regime. During high volatility periods, sensitivity increases to capture larger moves. During low volatility periods, sensitivity decreases to filter out noise.
This means the oscillator adapts to changing market conditions without requiring manual adjustment.
READING THE OSCILLATOR: DISPLAY MODES AND ZONES
The QMF oscillator can be displayed in four different visual formats. Each shows the same underlying data but presents it differently based on trader preference.
ENERGY CANDLES
This mode displays the oscillator as candlestick-style candles. Just as price candles show open, high, low, and close for price, energy candles show these values for the QMF oscillator.
Green candles indicate the oscillator closed higher than it opened (bullish momentum). Red candles indicate the oscillator closed lower than it opened (bearish momentum). The body size shows how much the oscillator moved during the period. Larger bodies indicate stronger momentum conviction.
This format is useful for traders who are comfortable reading candlestick patterns and want to apply similar visual analysis to the oscillator.

This mode displays the oscillator as a traditional line chart with a signal line overlay. The main QMF line shows current momentum. The signal line is a smoothed average of the QMF that helps identify direction changes.
When the QMF line is above the signal line, momentum is bullish. When below, momentum is bearish. Crossovers between the two lines can indicate momentum shifts.
This format is familiar to traders who use indicators like MACD and prefer clean line-based visualization.
IMPULSE BARS
This mode displays the oscillator as a histogram centered on the 50 midline. Bars above 50 indicate bullish momentum, bars below 50 indicate bearish momentum. Bar height shows momentum strength.
The color intensity changes based on momentum direction. Bars that are increasing in the bullish direction show brighter color. Bars that are decreasing show muted color. This makes it easy to see momentum acceleration and deceleration at a glance.
HEIKIN FLOW
This mode applies Heikin-Ashi smoothing to the energy candles. Heikin-Ashi is a Japanese technique that averages price data to create smoother trends with fewer reversals.
The result is cleaner visual trends that are easier to follow, though with slightly more lag than standard energy candles. This format is useful for identifying sustained momentum moves without getting distracted by minor fluctuations.
OSCILLATOR ZONES
Regardless of display mode, the oscillator pane includes horizontal reference lines that define important zones:
Midline at 50: The neutral point. When the oscillator is above 50, overall momentum is bullish. When below 50, overall momentum is bearish.
Overbought level at 70: When the oscillator crosses above this level, the market is showing strong bullish momentum. However, this also means prices have risen significantly and bearish reversal probability increases the longer the oscillator stays elevated.
Oversold level at 30: When the oscillator crosses below this level, the market is showing strong bearish momentum. However, this also means prices have fallen significantly and bullish reversal probability increases.
Extreme overbought at 85: Maximum bullish exhaustion. At this level, almost all short-term buying pressure has been expended. Reversal probability is high.
Extreme oversold at 15: Maximum bearish exhaustion. At this level, almost all short-term selling pressure has been expended. Reversal probability is high.
Understanding these zones helps you assess the current market condition before looking at any other indicator components.
MARKET STRUCTURE: DYNAMIC SUPPORT AND RESISTANCE
The second major component of the indicator is market structure analysis through dynamic support and resistance levels. Unlike price-based support and resistance, these levels are calculated directly on the oscillator.
WHAT ARE OSCILLATOR-BASED S/R LEVELS
When the QMF oscillator reaches a high point and then reverses lower, that high point becomes a resistance level on the oscillator. When the oscillator reaches a low point and then reverses higher, that low point becomes a support level.
These levels represent momentum thresholds that the market has previously found difficult to exceed. They answer the question: At what momentum reading has the oscillator historically reversed?
WHY THIS MATTERS
Oscillator support and resistance provides different information than price support and resistance. Price S/R tells you where buyers and sellers have previously entered the market. Oscillator S/R tells you what level of momentum the market has been able to sustain.
If the oscillator approaches its resistance level, it suggests momentum is reaching the upper bounds of what has been achievable recently. Either momentum will break through (indicating unusually strong conditions) or it will reverse (indicating normal mean reversion).
Similarly, if the oscillator approaches support, it suggests momentum is reaching exhaustion levels that have previously triggered bounces.
HOW IT APPEARS ON THE CHART
Resistance is displayed as a horizontal red line with a RES label on the oscillator pane. Support is displayed as a horizontal cyan line with a SUP label. These lines update dynamically as new pivots form.
When the oscillator breaks through these levels, markers appear:
R with up arrow: Resistance level broken, indicating unusually strong bullish momentum
S with down arrow: Support level broken, indicating unusually strong bearish momentum
R with checkmark: Resistance held, price rejected at this level
S with checkmark: Support held, price bounced from this level
The dashboard also shows current S/R status: whether the oscillator recently broke resistance, broke support, is currently at resistance, is currently at support, or is in clear space between levels.
AUTOMATED TRENDLINES: MOMENTUM TREND STRUCTURE
The third major component is automated trendline detection on the oscillator. This identifies trending behavior in momentum itself, separate from price trends.
WHAT ARE OSCILLATOR TRENDLINES
Just as you can draw trendlines on a price chart connecting swing lows (uptrend) or swing highs (downtrend), the indicator draws trendlines on the oscillator connecting pivot points.
Support trendlines connect oscillator pivot lows and project forward with a flat or rising slope. These show upward trending momentum where each pullback finds support at a higher level.
Resistance trendlines connect oscillator pivot highs and project forward with a flat or falling slope. These show downward trending momentum where each rally faces resistance at a lower level.
WHY THIS MATTERS
Price trends and momentum trends do not always align. Price can continue making higher highs while momentum makes lower highs, a condition called bearish divergence. Momentum trendlines help visualize this behavior.
When momentum is making higher lows (rising support trendline), it suggests underlying strength even if price is consolidating. When momentum is making lower highs (falling resistance trendline), it suggests underlying weakness even if price is holding.
Breaks of these trendlines often precede price moves. If a falling momentum resistance trendline breaks upward, it suggests bearish pressure is releasing and bullish momentum may follow. If a rising momentum support trendline breaks downward, it suggests bullish pressure is failing and bearish momentum may follow.
HOW IT APPEARS ON THE CHART
Support trendlines appear in blue/cyan, resistance trendlines appear in pink/magenta. Lines extend forward from the most recent pivot point to show projected levels.
Small circle markers can optionally appear at each pivot point used to construct the trendlines, helping you verify the anchor points.
When the oscillator breaks through a trendline, markers appear:
TL with up arrow: Resistance trendline broken upward (bullish breakout)
TL with down arrow: Support trendline broken downward (bearish breakdown)
Trendline strength is calculated based on three factors: how many pivot points validate the line, how recently it formed, and the angle of the slope. Stronger trendlines have more touches, formed recently, and have moderate slopes. You can filter trendlines by strength to show only the most significant ones.
Optional trendline zones can display a shaded area around each trendline rather than just a single line, showing a zone of influence rather than a precise level.
DIVERGENCE: WHEN PRICE AND MOMENTUM DISAGREE
The fourth major component is divergence detection, which identifies discrepancies between price action and oscillator behavior.
WHAT IS DIVERGENCE
Divergence occurs when price makes a new high or low, but the oscillator fails to confirm it. This disagreement between price and momentum often precedes reversals.
There are four types of divergence:
REGULAR BULLISH DIVERGENCE
Price makes a lower low (new low point below the previous low), but the oscillator makes a higher low (its low point is above its previous low). This suggests that despite price going lower, selling momentum is actually weakening. The implication is that sellers are losing conviction and a bounce or reversal may be approaching.
Visual example: Imagine price drops from 100 to 95, bounces to 97, then drops again to 93. At the same time, the oscillator drops to 25, bounces to 35, then drops only to 30. Price made a lower low (93 vs 95) but the oscillator made a higher low (30 vs 25). This is regular bullish divergence.
REGULAR BEARISH DIVERGENCE
Price makes a higher high (new high point above the previous high), but the oscillator makes a lower high (its high point is below its previous high). This suggests that despite price going higher, buying momentum is actually weakening. The implication is that buyers are losing conviction and a pullback or reversal may be approaching.
HIDDEN BULLISH DIVERGENCE
Price makes a higher low (its low point is above its previous low), but the oscillator makes a lower low (new low below its previous low). This occurs during uptrends and suggests the trend will continue. Price is holding higher but momentum briefly dipped further, indicating a temporary pullback within a larger uptrend.
HIDDEN BEARISH DIVERGENCE
Price makes a lower high (its high point is below its previous high), but the oscillator makes a higher high (new high above its previous high). This occurs during downtrends and suggests the trend will continue. Price is staying lower but momentum briefly spiked higher, indicating a temporary bounce within a larger downtrend.
Regular divergence suggests reversal. Hidden divergence suggests continuation.
HOW IT APPEARS ON THE CHART
When divergence is confirmed, labels appear on the oscillator:
BULL DIV: Regular bullish divergence confirmed
BEAR DIV: Regular bearish divergence confirmed
H-BULL: Hidden bullish divergence confirmed
H-BEAR: Hidden bearish divergence confirmed
Dotted lines connect the pivot points on the oscillator to show the divergence pattern. Regular divergence uses solid colored lines, hidden divergence uses dashed lines.
The dashboard shows divergence status in real-time:
CHECKING BULL: A potential bullish divergence pattern is forming but not yet confirmed
CHECKING BEAR: A potential bearish divergence pattern is forming but not yet confirmed
BULL CONFIRMED: Bullish divergence has been validated
BEAR CONFIRMED: Bearish divergence has been validated
NONE: No divergence currently active
Divergence strength is calculated from the magnitude of the oscillator discrepancy. Only divergences meeting the minimum strength threshold are displayed to filter out minor, less significant patterns.
FLOW RIBBONS: VISUALIZING MOMENTUM ALIGNMENT
The fifth major component is the Flow Ribbon system, which displays multiple moving averages of the QMF oscillator to visualize momentum trend and alignment.
WHAT ARE FLOW RIBBONS
Flow ribbons consist of three Exponential Moving Averages (EMAs) applied to the QMF oscillator values. Think of them as smoothed versions of the oscillator at different speeds:
Fast Ribbon : Responds quickly to momentum changes, showing recent momentum direction
Medium Ribbon: Balances responsiveness with smoothness, showing intermediate momentum
Slow Ribbon: Moves slowly and shows longer-term momentum context
When these three lines are plotted together with filled area between them, they create a visual ribbon that expands and contracts based on momentum conditions.
WHY RIBBON ALIGNMENT MATTERS
The relationship between these three averages tells you about momentum structure:
BULLISH ALIGNMENT (Fast above Medium above Slow)
When the ribbons are stacked with fast on top, medium in middle, and slow on bottom, momentum is aligned bullishly across multiple timeframes. Short-term momentum leads, with medium and long-term momentum confirming. This is the strongest bullish configuration.
BEARISH ALIGNMENT (Fast below Medium below Slow)
When the ribbons are inverted with fast on bottom, medium in middle, and slow on top, momentum is aligned bearishly across multiple timeframes. Short-term momentum leads downward, with medium and long-term momentum confirming. This is the strongest bearish configuration.
MIXED/TRANSITIONING
When the ribbons are not properly stacked, momentum is in transition. This often occurs during consolidation, trend changes, or choppy conditions. Trading during mixed ribbon states carries higher uncertainty.
RIBBON EXPANSION AND CONTRACTION
Beyond alignment, the distance between the fast and slow ribbon provides additional information:
EXPANDING RIBBON
When the gap between fast and slow ribbon is increasing, momentum is accelerating. In a bullish alignment with expansion, upward momentum is strengthening. In a bearish alignment with expansion, downward momentum is strengthening. Expansion confirms trend conviction.
CONTRACTING RIBBON
When the gap between fast and slow ribbon is decreasing, momentum is decelerating. The current trend may be losing steam. Contraction often precedes consolidation or reversal. It serves as an early warning that the current move may be exhausting.
HOW IT APPEARS ON THE CHART
The fast ribbon appears as a thicker line, the slow ribbon as a thinner line. The area between them fills with color:
Green fill: Bullish ribbon alignment
Red fill: Bearish ribbon alignment
Gray fill: Neutral or transitioning state
The dashboard shows ribbon state as BULL, BEAR, or NEUT, and indicates whether ribbons are expanding (EXP) or contracting (CON).
Ribbon crossovers occur when the fast ribbon crosses the slow ribbon, signaling potential momentum shifts. These crossovers are confirmed only after the bar closes to prevent false signals from intrabar movement.
REVERSAL CLOUDS: PROBABILITY ZONES
The sixth major component is the Reversal Cloud system, which visualizes zones where momentum reversals have elevated probability.
WHAT ARE REVERSAL CLOUDS
Reversal clouds are shaded areas around the QMF oscillator that indicate probability zones for mean reversion. They answer the question: How far from average has momentum extended, and what is the probability it will revert?
When the oscillator moves far from its normal range, it creates stretched conditions. Like a rubber band pulled to its limit, the probability increases that it will snap back toward center. Reversal clouds visualize these stretched conditions.
CLOUD CALCULATION METHODS
Five different calculation methods are available, each with different characteristics:
DYNAMIC BOLLINGER
Uses statistical standard deviation to create bands that adapt to oscillator volatility. When the oscillator is volatile, bands widen. When the oscillator is calm, bands narrow. This method identifies moves that are statistically significant relative to recent oscillator behavior.
GOLDEN RATIO
Applies Fibonacci proportions (0.214 and 0.786) to the oscillator range. These ratios appear throughout nature and markets. Some traders believe these proportions have psychological significance in market behavior.
ADAPTIVE HALO
Scales cloud width based on price ATR rather than oscillator volatility. This connects cloud width to actual price volatility, making the clouds wider during volatile price action and narrower during calm periods.
VOLATILITY SQUEEZE
Uses short-term standard deviation to create bands that contract during low volatility and expand during high volatility. This method is particularly useful for identifying potential breakout conditions when volatility is compressed.
ICHIMOKU RSI
Applies concepts from Ichimoku Kinko Hyo equilibrium theory to create balanced zones. Uses multiple lookback periods to establish equilibrium levels where the oscillator tends to find balance.
HOW TO READ THE CLOUDS
The oscillator moves through the cloud area as momentum fluctuates:
When QMF enters the upper cloud region, it indicates extended bullish momentum. The higher into the cloud, the greater the probability of bearish reversal through mean reversion.
When QMF enters the lower cloud region, it indicates extended bearish momentum. The deeper into the cloud, the greater the probability of bullish reversal through mean reversion.
Cloud opacity adjusts based on reversal probability. More opaque coloring indicates higher reversal probability. Subtle coloring indicates lower reversal probability.
IMPORTANT UNDERSTANDING
Clouds show probability zones, not certainty. Price can remain in extreme zones longer than expected, particularly during strong trends. Clouds are most useful when combined with other components like divergence, S/R breaks, and ribbon alignment rather than used in isolation.
MULTI-TIMEFRAME ANALYSIS: SEEING THE BIGGER PICTURE
The seventh major component is Multi-Timeframe (MTF) analysis, which calculates QMF values across multiple timeframes to assess momentum alignment at different time perspectives.
WHY MULTIPLE TIMEFRAMES MATTER
The timeframe you trade on shows only one perspective of market momentum. A bullish signal on a 15-minute chart may occur within a larger bearish trend on the 4-hour chart. Understanding momentum context from higher timeframes helps you assess whether you are trading with or against the larger flow.
When multiple timeframes align in the same direction, the probability of a successful trade increases. When timeframes conflict, the situation is more uncertain and requires additional caution.
HOW MTF ANALYSIS WORKS
The indicator calculates the full QMF oscillator independently on four configurable timeframes. By default, these are set to 5-minute, 15-minute, 60-minute (1 hour), and 240-minute (4 hour), but you can configure them to any timeframes that suit your trading style.
For each timeframe, the system determines the current momentum bias:
OB - Overbought: QMF above 70, indicating extended bullish momentum that may reverse
B+ - Strong Bullish: QMF above 55 and above its signal line, indicating solid bullish momentum
B - Bullish: QMF above its signal line, indicating mild bullish momentum
N - Neutral: QMF near 50 with no clear direction
S - Bearish: QMF below its signal line, indicating mild bearish momentum
S+ - Strong Bearish: QMF below 45 and below its signal line, indicating solid bearish momentum
OS - Oversold: QMF below 30, indicating extended bearish momentum that may reverse
ALIGNMENT SCORING
The dashboard displays an alignment score showing how many of the four timeframes agree with each directional bias. This appears as a fraction like 3/4 or 2/4.
4/4 Bullish: All four timeframes show bullish readings - maximum bullish alignment
3/4 Bullish: Three timeframes bullish, one diverging - strong bullish alignment
2/4: Split between bullish and bearish - no clear alignment, use caution
3/4 Bearish: Three timeframes bearish, one diverging - strong bearish alignment
4/4 Bearish: All four timeframes show bearish readings - maximum bearish alignment
Higher alignment scores indicate more reliable momentum context. Trading with 3/4 or 4/4 alignment in your favor provides better odds than trading against alignment or during mixed conditions.
NON-REPAINTING MTF DATA
The multi-timeframe data uses proper request.security settings with lookahead disabled and gaps handled correctly. This ensures the MTF readings you see in backtesting match what you would see in real-time trading, with no future data leakage that could create misleading results.
LIVE MOMENTUM SCORING: REAL-TIME MARKET ASSESSMENT
The eighth major component is the Live Momentum Scoring system, which provides continuous real-time feedback on current market conditions.
WHAT IS LIVE MOMENTUM SCORING
Unlike signals which only appear when specific patterns complete, live momentum scores update every bar to show the current balance between bullish and bearish factors. This answers the question: Right now, how do the bullish factors compare to the bearish factors?
The system evaluates six categories for each direction and adds up points:
ZONE POSITION (0-25 points)
Rewards positioning in favorable oscillator zones. Deep oversold positioning adds points to the bullish score. Deep overbought positioning adds points to the bearish score. Extreme zones receive maximum points, moderate zones receive partial points, neutral zones receive zero.
DIVERGENCE (0-20 points)
Rewards active or forming divergence patterns. Confirmed divergence receives full points. Forming (checking) divergence receives partial credit. No divergence receives zero points.
TREND ALIGNMENT (0-20 points)
Rewards proper EMA stacking and trend MA positioning. Full bullish EMA stack (fast above medium above slow above trend MA) receives maximum bullish points. Partial alignment receives partial points.
MOMENTUM DIRECTION (0-15 points)
Rewards current momentum direction and acceleration. Accelerating momentum in the favorable direction receives maximum points. Simple directional momentum receives moderate points. Histogram turning (early reversal signs) receives partial points.
RIBBON STATE (0-10 points)
Rewards proper ribbon alignment and expansion. Aligned and expanding ribbons receive maximum points. Aligned but contracting ribbons receive moderate points. Mixed ribbons receive zero points.
MULTI-TIMEFRAME (0-10 points)
Rewards higher timeframe alignment. 4/4 alignment receives maximum points, scaling down as alignment decreases.
READING THE LIVE SCORES
The dashboard displays current scores for both directions:
BULL: Shows bullish score as percentage (0-100) and letter grade (A through D)
BEAR: Shows bearish score as percentage (0-100) and letter grade (A through D)
BIAS: Shows which direction currently dominates (BULL, BEAR, or NEUTRAL if close)
Grade thresholds:
A Grade: 70% or higher - Strong momentum factors aligned
B Grade: 50-69% - Moderate momentum factors present
C Grade: 30-49% - Some momentum factors but incomplete
D Grade: Below 30% - Weak or missing momentum factors
The dominant bias shows which direction currently has stronger factors. When one side leads by more than 10 points, it shows that direction. Otherwise, it shows NEUTRAL indicating balanced or mixed conditions.
WHY LIVE SCORING MATTERS
Live scores help you understand current market conditions even when no signal has fired. You can see momentum building or fading in real-time. A rising bullish score suggests conditions are improving for potential long opportunities. A rising bearish score suggests conditions are deteriorating.
This continuous feedback helps with:
- Anticipating potential signals before they fire
- Assessing whether to act on signals that do fire
- Understanding why a signal did or did not appear
- Monitoring open positions for changing conditions
THE DASHBOARD: YOUR ANALYSIS CONTROL CENTER

HOW SIGNALS EMERGE FROM CONFLUENCE
After understanding all the individual components, it becomes clear how signals are generated. Signals in QMF are not arbitrary triggers based on single conditions. They emerge when multiple independent factors align to create confluence.
THE PATTERN-BASED APPROACH
The signal system uses a hierarchical pattern-based approach. Rather than calculating a score from random factors and labeling it, the system actively hunts for specific predefined pattern combinations.
The system first checks for Grade A patterns. If none are found, it checks for Grade B patterns. If none are found, it checks for Grade C patterns. Each grade represents specific combinations of factors that must be present together.
GRADE A REQUIREMENTS
Grade A patterns require multiple strong factors aligned. Examples of Grade A pattern combinations:
Pattern A1 - Perfect Storm Reversal:
- Extreme zone positioning (deeply oversold or overbought)
- Confirmed regular divergence
- Structural break (resistance broken or support broken or trendline broken)
- Strong volume conviction (1.3x or higher)
- High MTF alignment (3 or more timeframes agreeing)
Pattern A2 - Breakout Conviction:
- Resistance or support broken
- Accelerating momentum in the breakout direction
- Full EMA stack aligned
- Ribbon aligned and expanding
- Strong volume conviction (1.4x or higher)
- Good MTF alignment (2 or more timeframes)
Pattern A3 - Zone Reversal Multi-Confirmation:
- Extreme or standard zone positioning
- Regular or hidden divergence confirmed
- Active bounce from zone
- EMA crossover or MA break in reversal direction
- Good MTF alignment (2 or more timeframes)
- Volume conviction present (1.2x or higher)
All factors in the pattern must be present simultaneously. Missing any single factor disqualifies the Grade A pattern.
GRADE B REQUIREMENTS
Grade B patterns require fewer but still meaningful confirmations. These patterns fire only when no Grade A pattern is detected:
Pattern B1 - Zone with Confirmation:
- Oversold or overbought zone positioning
- Momentum in reversal direction
- Hidden divergence, EMA crossover, or trendline break present
- Minimum MTF alignment met
Pattern B2 - Divergence with Structure:
- Regular or hidden divergence confirmed
- Structural break (S/R or trendline or MA)
- Momentum confirming direction
- Volume at least average
Pattern B3 - Clean Trend Continuation:
- Above or below trend MA
- Ribbon aligned in direction
- Oscillator crossed signal line
- EMA stack complete
GRADE C REQUIREMENTS
Grade C patterns require basic confirmations. These patterns fire only when no Grade A or Grade B pattern is detected:
Pattern C1 - Early Zone Entry:
- Zone positioning or approaching zone
- Momentum in expected direction
- Oscillator or EMA crossover present
Pattern C2 - Momentum Shift:
- Histogram turning in expected direction
- Oscillator crossover confirmed
- Oscillator on expected side of midline
SIGNAL QUALITY CONTROLS
Beyond pattern detection, several quality controls must be satisfied:
COOLDOWN
A minimum number of bars must pass between any two signals. This prevents signal clustering during volatile conditions and ensures each signal represents a distinct opportunity.
DIRECTION ALTERNATION
When enabled, signals must alternate between LONG and SHORT. After a LONG signal, only SHORT signals can fire until direction changes. This prevents multiple consecutive signals in the same direction.
PULLBACK REQUIREMENT
After a signal fires, the oscillator must retrace a minimum percentage before another same-direction signal can fire. This ensures re-entry signals occur after meaningful pullbacks rather than immediately after the first signal.
VOLUME CONFIRMATION (Optional)
When enabled, volume must meet minimum threshold relative to average. This filters out signals during low-volume periods when moves may lack follow-through.
BAR CONFIRMATION
All signals require barstate.isconfirmed, meaning they only fire after the bar closes. This prevents signals from appearing and disappearing during live bar formation, ensuring backtest results match live behavior.
A comprehensive example that combines signal generation logic, grading system, with all elements clearly annotated for easy understanding.
SETTINGS REFERENCE
This section provides a reference for the main configurable settings organized by category.
QUANTUM ENGINE SETTINGS
Sensitivity (5-50): Primary lookback period for momentum calculations. Lower values respond faster but may include more noise. Higher values smooth the oscillator but increase lag. Default 14 balances responsiveness with stability.
Smoothing (1-10): Exponential smoothing applied to final QMF value. Higher values reduce noise, lower values preserve detail. Default 3 provides good noise reduction.
Adaptive Mode: When enabled, automatically adjusts sensitivity based on volatility regime. Increases sensitivity during high volatility, decreases during low volatility.
Dimension Toggles: Enable or disable each of the four dimensions (Velocity, Volume, Volatility, Session) individually. Useful for customizing the oscillator for specific instruments or conditions.
Dimension Weights: Adjust relative contribution of each dimension. Weights are normalized so they do not need to sum to 1.0. Higher weight means that dimension has more influence on the final value.

PRACTICAL EXAMPLE: READING THE COMPLETE PICTURE
This example walks through analyzing a chart using all the indicator components together.
SCENARIO: You are analyzing a 15-minute chart looking for trading opportunities.
STEP 1: ASSESS OSCILLATOR ZONE
You look at the QMF oscillator and see it reading 24, which is in the oversold zone. The dashboard confirms this showing OVERSOLD in the zone status. The progress bar shows the oscillator is in the lower portion of its range.
Initial assessment: The market has experienced significant selling pressure and is in territory where bullish reversals have elevated probability.
STEP 2: CHECK STRUCTURE
You look at the dynamic S/R levels. The oscillator recently touched its support level at 22 and bounced. You see an S with checkmark marker indicating support held. The dashboard shows AT SUP status.
Assessment update: The oscillator found support at a level that has held before. This adds to the bullish case.
STEP 3: EXAMINE TRENDLINES
You notice a resistance trendline connecting recent oscillator highs that has been declining. The oscillator is currently approaching this trendline from below. No break has occurred yet.
Assessment update: There is overhead resistance that will need to be cleared. A break above would be significant.
STEP 4: CHECK DIVERGENCE
The dashboard shows BULL CONFIRMED in the divergence status. Looking at the oscillator, you see a BULL DIV label with a dotted line connecting two pivot lows. The oscillator made a higher low while price made a lower low.
Assessment update: Confirmed bullish divergence suggests selling momentum is weakening despite price continuing lower. This is a meaningful signal of potential reversal.
STEP 5: EVALUATE RIBBONS
The ribbons are currently mixed with fast below medium but both above slow. Ribbon fill is gray indicating transitioning state. However, you notice the fast ribbon is turning upward and approaching the medium ribbon from below.
Assessment update: Ribbons are not yet aligned bullish, but appear to be transitioning. A bullish crossover may be approaching.
STEP 6: CHECK MTF ALIGNMENT
The dashboard MTF panel shows: 5m is B+, 15m is B, 1H is N, 4H is S. The alignment shows 2/4 bullish.
Assessment update: Lower timeframes support bullish bias, but higher timeframes are neutral or bearish. This is mixed alignment, suggesting caution. Any bullish move may face resistance from higher timeframe sellers.
STEP 7: REVIEW LIVE MOMENTUM SCORES
Dashboard shows BULL at 52% Grade B, BEAR at 28% Grade D. Dominant bias shows BULL.
Assessment update: Bullish factors currently outweigh bearish factors. The score suggests moderate bullish conditions, not yet strong.
STEP 8: SYNTHESIS
Putting it together:
- Oversold zone positioning (bullish factor)
- Support held (bullish factor)
- Bullish divergence confirmed (strong bullish factor)
- Ribbons transitioning but not yet aligned (neutral)
- MTF alignment mixed at 2/4 (caution factor)
- Live score favors bullish moderately (supporting factor)
- Resistance trendline overhead (risk factor)
Conclusion: Conditions favor a bullish reversal but with caution warranted due to mixed MTF alignment and overhead resistance. This would not qualify for a Grade A signal due to insufficient MTF alignment. If a signal fires, it would likely be Grade B.
STEP 9: SIGNAL FIRES
Several bars later, the oscillator crosses above its signal line while still in oversold territory. The EMA fast crosses above EMA slow. A LONG B signal appears at 85% confluence.
The signal represents: Oversold positioning plus confirmed divergence plus momentum crossover, meeting Grade B pattern requirements.
STEP 10: MONITORING
After entry, you monitor the dashboard for changing conditions. Live momentum scores continue rising. The resistance trendline breaks (TL up arrow marker appears). Ribbons align bullish. MTF alignment improves to 3/4 as the 1H turns bullish.
The improving conditions confirm the trade thesis. You hold the position as conditions strengthen.

PowerWave Oscillator Suite [BOSWaves]PowerWave Oscillator Suite - Multi-Dimensional Momentum & Trend Oscillator with Adaptive Divergence Insight
Overview
PowerWave Oscillator Suite is a cutting-edge analytical toolkit designed to provide traders with a sophisticated understanding of momentum, trend strength, and divergence behavior in financial markets. Unlike conventional oscillators that rely solely on price-based calculations, PowerWave combines adaptive, multi-dimensional computation engines with advanced visualization tools and divergence detection systems. The suite offers a unique blend of trend-following, mean-reversion, and contrarian trading insights, allowing users to analyze markets from multiple angles simultaneously. Each module within the suite has been designed to offer precision, clarity, and adaptability, ensuring that traders of all levels - from novice to professional - can extract actionable intelligence without unnecessary chart clutter or signal ambiguity.
PowerWave Oscillator Suite focuses on three primary trading paradigms: momentum measurement, volume-based filtering, and smoothed trend oscillation. These paradigms are accessible via three core modules - Aroon Oscillator, Adaptive Volume Filter, and HyperSmooth Oscillator - each equipped with advanced smoothing, dynamic source selection, reduced-lag computation, and divergence detection, offering a comprehensive approach to market analysis. By leveraging the full capabilities of this toolkit, traders can identify market turning points, confirm trend strength, detect hidden divergences, and refine entries and exits, all within a single integrated framework.
Configuration Panel and Customization Options
At the heart of PowerWave is a robust configuration panel that allows users to tailor the suite to their individual trading preferences and market conditions. The first level of customization is the Module Selection, allowing users to toggle between the Aroon Oscillator, Adaptive Volume Filter, or HyperSmooth Oscillator. Each module is designed with a distinct analytical purpose:
Aroon Oscillator : Measures trend strength and provides early signals for trend reversals or continuation.
Adaptive Volume Filter : Uses volume-based filtering to highlight momentum shifts, smoothing out noise from price fluctuations.
HyperSmooth Oscillator : Delivers finely smoothed oscillations, designed to capture micro-trend shifts and acceleration patterns.
Users can enhance the responsiveness and filtering behavior of each module via the Enhancement Level setting, a numeric input that applies a series of multi-stage exponential smoothing layers, ensuring signals are robust against market noise without introducing excessive lag. Additionally, the Source Type option allows traders to determine the price input methodology - ranging from adaptive combinations of open, high, low, and close values to more traditional sources - granting flexibility to align the indicator with preferred strategies or asset characteristics.
Engineered Visual Intelligence and Module-Specific Color Systems
PowerWave employs purpose-built, module-specific color systems that are tightly integrated with each oscillator’s underlying computation model. Rather than treating color as a cosmetic layer, the suite uses color as an informational channel, encoding state, momentum bias, and structural context directly into the visual output.
Each module operates with a dedicated color logic aligned to its analytical role:
The Aroon Oscillator uses polarity-driven gradients to express time-based trend dominance and directional strength.
The Adaptive Volume Filter applies contrasting color states to distinguish expanding versus contracting volume pressure.
The HyperSmooth Oscillator utilizes a dynamic HSV-based color spectrum that continuously maps momentum acceleration and deceleration into the oscillator line itself.
These color systems are reinforced through coordinated visual elements, including bar coloring, background state highlighting, histogram fills, and cross-condition shading. Users can further tune visual intensity and emphasis through enhanced mode and opacity controls, allowing the same engineered color logic to be amplified or subdued depending on chart density and personal workflow.
By designing color behavior as an extension of the calculation engine - rather than an arbitrary styling choice - PowerWave ensures that visual cues remain consistent, data-driven, and immediately interpretable across assets, timeframes, and market regimes.
Dynamic Source and Zero-Lag Computation
A defining characteristic of PowerWave Oscillator Suite is its Dynamic Source Calculation engine, which adjusts the input price series according to the trader’s chosen source type and enhancement level. This system ensures that signals are computed from a refined, noise-filtered base, enhancing reliability across asset classes and timeframes. Each stage of the multi-level smoothing hierarchy incrementally reduces erratic price fluctuations while preserving meaningful structural movement, allowing traders to differentiate between minor price noise and genuine momentum shifts.
Complementing this is the Adaptive Reduced-Lag Filter, a highly specialized algorithm that minimizes lag inherent in traditional moving averages or oscillators. This filter uses a gain-optimized EMA structure that continuously self-adjusts based on recent price dynamics, providing traders with fast yet reliable signals. By incorporating zero-lag calculations, PowerWave ensures that trend reversals and momentum inflections are detected in near real-time, allowing for earlier entries, faster confirmations, and more accurate exits. The reduced-lag filter also dynamically adjusts its internal gain coefficients, minimizing error while accounting for varying market volatility.
Aroon Oscillator Module
The Aroon Oscillator module within PowerWave is designed to quantify trend strength and identify emerging directional shifts. Utilizing a dual-period calculation, the module compares the relative timing of recent highs and lows, producing a normalized oscillation that reflects the market’s current momentum. Advanced zero-lag filtering ensures that even minor reversals or trend accelerations are captured with minimal delay, while additional smoothing can be applied via the configuration panel to match the trader’s preferred sensitivity.
The module includes trend and mean-reversion signal detection:
Trend Signals : Generated when the oscillator crosses the zero line, indicating potential trend continuation or initiation.
Reversion Signals : Triggered by crossovers between the oscillator and its internal signal line, highlighting potential pullbacks or temporary counter-trend behavior.
Visual overlays, including bar coloring and gradient plots, highlight bullish and bearish momentum zones, making it immediately apparent whether the market is in a trending or consolidating state. By combining trend and reversion insights with divergence detection, traders gain a multi-layered understanding of market structure, allowing for well-timed entries and exits.
Use Case:
Use the Aroon Oscillator when your primary objective is identifying real trend shifts early and staying aligned with structure. This model excels in markets transitioning from consolidation into expansion, where timing matters more than micro-entries. Zero-line crosses define directional regime changes, while signal-line crossovers expose mean-reversion pullbacks within a dominant trend. Divergences here are high-quality because Aroon measures time-based strength, not just price movement - making this ideal for swing traders and intraday trend followers who want confirmation before committing size.
Adaptive Volume Filter Module
The Adaptive Volume Filter takes a fundamentally different approach, analyzing volume-driven market behavior. By transforming price inputs with volume-weighted calculations and applying an adaptive multi-stage smoothing engine, this module emphasizes genuine buying and selling pressure while suppressing noise caused by small, indecisive bars.
Key features include:
Dynamic Thresholding : Traders can set threshold levels to define oversold or overbought regions based on relative volume patterns.
Multi-tiered Signal Generation : Local trend signals identify moderate momentum shifts, while oversold/overbought conditions trigger stronger trade opportunities.
Volume-Cycle Adaptation : The filter adapts to cyclical volume patterns, ensuring that signals remain valid during periods of high or low market participation.
This module is particularly effective for spotting institutional accumulation/distribution, validating trends, and detecting early inflection points where price action alone might be misleading.
Use Case:
Select the Adaptive Volume Filter when you want to validate price movement with participation, not guess momentum in a vacuum. This oscillator shines during breakouts, distribution phases, and deceptive price moves where volume tells the real story. Overbought and oversold zones highlight statistically stretched volume conditions, while the adaptive smoothing engine filters short-term noise caused by small, indecisive bars. This is the model you use to confirm whether a move is being supported or starved - making it lethal for spotting exhaustion, fake breakouts, and accumulation/distribution zones.
HyperSmooth Oscillator Module
The HyperSmooth Oscillator represents the most sophisticated module in the suite, combining adaptive smoothing, dual-cycle EMA differentiation, and volatility-normalized scaling. It calculates momentum by comparing fast and slow EMA cycles of a dynamically smoothed price series and then normalizes this difference using ATR-based volatility adjustments. This ensures that the oscillator is sensitive to micro-momentum changes while remaining robust against extreme volatility spikes.
Additional innovations in this module include:
Hyper-smoothing and acceleration detection : Captures micro-trend shifts and identifies momentum acceleration or deceleration, providing early insight into potential trend reversals.
Dynamic color mapping : Uses HSV-based gradient calculations to indicate the intensity and direction of momentum, enhancing immediate visual interpretation.
Threshold-based cross-validation : Ensures that only meaningful crossovers are flagged as buy or sell signals, reducing false positives in noisy markets.
Combined, these mechanisms give traders access to both subtle and strong market moves, allowing nuanced position sizing and timing strategies.
Use Case:
Use HyperSmooth when you need speed, sensitivity, and volatility-aware momentum detection. This model is built for fast markets, aggressive entries, and momentum continuation plays where standard oscillators lag. By normalizing momentum with ATR and dynamically adjusting signal thresholds, HyperSmooth filters weak crosses and only reacts when momentum actually matters. Color-shifted acceleration highlights when force is increasing or decaying, making this the go-to mode for scalpers and momentum traders hunting explosive continuation or sharp reversals with minimal delay.
Enhanced Divergence Detection System
PowerWave includes a robust divergence detection engine, capable of identifying regular and hidden bullish and bearish divergences across all modules. Divergences are detected by analyzing oscillator pivots against corresponding price highs and lows, ensuring that traders can spot structural weaknesses or strengths in trend continuation.
Key enhancements include:
Pivot-based analysis with lookback control : Allows customization of sensitivity to short-term vs. long-term divergences.
Priority system : Regular divergences are highlighted first, while hidden divergences are only displayed if no regular divergence is present, reducing chart clutter.
Visual representation : Divergences are drawn on both the oscillator and price chart using solid or dashed lines with opacity gradients, enabling clear interpretation of potential reversal zones.
This system equips traders to anticipate trend exhaustion points, early reversals, and high-probability pullbacks, a critical advantage in both trending and range-bound markets.
Visualization and Chart Interpretation
Every module in PowerWave is accompanied by enhanced visual aids, including histogram fills, line overlays, bar coloring, and shape-based trade markers. These features provide instant clarity on:
Trend direction : Bullish vs. bearish zones are highlighted via gradient fills and bar color overlays.
Signal strength : Minor, regular, and strong trade setups are distinguished using shape markers (triangles, circles, diamonds).
Momentum confirmation : Histogram fills indicate whether the oscillator is accelerating or decelerating relative to its signal line.
By integrating these visualizations, PowerWave transforms complex calculations into immediately actionable chart insights, enabling both manual and automated strategies to be executed with confidence.
General Use Cases and Trading Applications
Trend-following : Combine oscillator zero-line crossovers with divergence confirmation for disciplined entries.
Counter-trend trading : Utilize hidden divergence signals to identify potential reversal points before visible trend exhaustion.
Volume-sensitive trades : Adaptive Volume Filter highlights accumulation/distribution phases, providing context for institutional participation.
Scalping and swing strategies : HyperSmooth Oscillator captures micro-momentum changes, ideal for both short-term scalping and multi-day swing trades.
The suite is designed for flexibility and adaptability, allowing traders to integrate multiple modules, fine-tune parameters, and create customized signals aligned with personal strategies or specific market conditions.

Market Participation Gradient [Interakktive]Market Participation Gradient (MPG) is a diagnostic oscillator that measures the quality and intensity of market participation by combining price efficiency with activity (volume or a FX-safe proxy) into a single 0–100 score.
Most tools tell you "how much activity exists." MPG focuses on "how effective that activity is," helping you differentiate clean directional participation from absorbed / inefficient participation where effort produces limited directional progress.
█ WHAT IT DOES
- Produces a 0–100 participation score (higher = stronger participation environment)
- Uses color as state context (not buy/sell)
- Classifies participation into four tiers for quick readability
- Includes an optional status-line HUD for at-a-glance context without chart clutter
█ WHAT IT DOES NOT DO
- NO buy/sell signals
- NO entries/exits
- NO alerts by default
- NO repainting / no lookahead (diagnostic context only)
█ HOW TO READ MPG
Level (0–100)
- Higher values = stronger participation environment
- Lower values = thin, drifting participation environment
Color (state language, not direction)
- Teal = Clean participation (efficient movement)
- Magenta = Absorbed participation (high activity, low efficiency)
- Amber = Building / transition state
- Grey = Thin / neutral state
█ TIER SYSTEM
MPG uses four tiers:
- THIN (0–20): low participation environment
- BUILDING (20–40): participation emerging / transitional
- STRONG (40–65): solid participation environment (quality becomes more meaningful)
- EXTREME (65+): very high participation environment (contextually important during events or late-cycle pushes)
█ QUALITY ASSESSMENT (STRONG / EXTREME)
Within STRONG and EXTREME tiers, MPG evaluates participation quality:
- Clean (Teal): Efficiency > 55%
- Absorbed (Magenta): Efficiency < 30% AND Activity > 1.5×
- Neutral (Grey): otherwise (mixed quality)
█ STATUS LINE HUD
MPG can display key values in TradingView's status line:
- Minimal: MPG (0–100) + Tier (0–3)
- Full: adds Direction (-1/0/1) and Quality (-1/0/1)
This provides quick context without tables or on-chart panels.
█ HOW IT WORKS (METHODOLOGY)
MPG combines two independent measurements:
1. Efficiency (0–1)
Efficiency = |Net Displacement| / Total Path Length
- High efficiency = price moved more directly
- Low efficiency = price moved less directly (more back-and-forth)
2. Activity (centered at 1.0)
Activity = Current Volume / Average Volume
- Activity > 1 = above-average activity
- Activity < 1 = below-average activity
FX / indices fallback: If volume is unreliable/unavailable, MPG uses a range-based proxy: (High–Low) / ATR (capped) to prevent distortion.
3. Participation Score (0–100)
Participation = Efficiency × √Activity × 100
The square root applies diminishing returns so activity alone cannot dominate without efficiency support.
█ SETTINGS
Core
- ATR Length — normalization baseline
- Efficiency Lookback — bars used for efficiency
- Volume Average Length — baseline for activity
- Smoothing Length — EMA smoothing (1 = minimal smoothing)
Visuals
- Histogram / Line / Tier Bands toggles
- Optional pane background tint (default OFF)
- Theme: Cinematic (subtle) or Vivid (brighter)
HUD
- Status Line HUD toggle
- HUD Detail: Minimal or Full
█ SUITABLE MARKETS
Works on any market with price data. For symbols with unreliable volume (common in FX), MPG automatically uses the range/ATR activity proxy.
█ RELATED (INTERAKKTIVE)
- MER — Market Efficiency Ratio (pure efficiency)
- ERD — Effort–Result Divergence (effort vs outcome)
- VSI — Volatility State Index (expansion/contraction context)

Flux Momentum Oscillator[BullByte]Flux Momentum Oscillator is a professional-grade momentum analysis system built on an original methodology called Momentum Flux Bars (MFB). Unlike conventional oscillators that measure momentum over fixed time periods, this indicator constructs synthetic momentum bars based on actual price movement, creating a pure representation of directional pressure independent of time-based noise.
This is NOT a mashup or combination of existing indicators. The entire system is built from the ground up around a single cohesive concept: measuring momentum through price-triggered synthetic bars rather than time-triggered calculations.
CORE INNOVATION: MOMENTUM FLUX BARS (MFB)
Traditional momentum indicators calculate values at fixed time intervals, which means a slow, grinding move receives the same measurement weight as a fast, explosive move occurring over the same number of bars. This creates distortion in momentum readings.
Momentum Flux Bars solve this problem by forming only when price travels a volatility-adjusted distance. Each MFB represents genuine directional commitment from market participants.
Key Properties of Momentum Flux Bars:
- Form based on price movement, not time passage
- Automatically adjust their formation threshold based on current volatility
- Capture the velocity of price movement (how quickly each bar forms)
- Record volume participation during formation
- Create a noise-filtered view of true market momentum
The oscillator then analyzes the pattern, velocity, and characteristics of recent MFB formations to produce its readings.
WHY THIS APPROACH MATTERS FOR TRADERS
Time-Based Problem: A 14-period RSI on a choppy day produces the same calculation structure as on a trending day, even though market behavior differs completely. The indicator cannot distinguish between meaningful moves and noise.
Flux-Based Solution: When price chops sideways, fewer MFBs form because price fails to travel the required distance. When price trends strongly, MFBs form rapidly in sequence. The oscillator inherently adapts to actual market behavior.
Practical Benefits:
- Cleaner signals during trending conditions
- Automatic noise reduction during consolidation
- Earlier detection of momentum shifts through velocity analysis
- Reduced false signals in choppy markets
- No manual adjustment needed across different market conditions
COMPLETE FEATURE BREAKDOWN
FEATURE 1: AUTO-OPTIMIZATION ENGINE
The indicator includes an optional auto-optimization system that continuously evaluates different sensitivity parameters and selects the configuration producing the cleanest momentum measurement for current conditions.
How It Works:
- Tests multiple ATR multiplier values against recent price history
- Scores each configuration based on trend capture efficiency
- Automatically applies the optimal setting
- Re-evaluates periodically to adapt to changing conditions
Trader Benefit: Eliminates the guesswork of parameter tuning. The indicator finds its own optimal settings.
FEATURE 2: MARKET REGIME CLASSIFICATION
The system classifies current market conditions into four distinct regimes based on MFB formation patterns:
EXPLOSIVE: Rapid MFB formation with strong directional bias and high volume participation. Indicates powerful trending conditions with high momentum.
STEADY: Consistent MFB formation in a primary direction with normal velocity. Represents healthy, sustainable trends suitable for trend-following approaches.
CONSOLIDATING: Mixed direction MFB formation with decreasing velocity. Suggests range-bound conditions where breakout strategies may be appropriate.
DEAD: Minimal MFB formation activity. Indicates extremely low volatility or market indecision. Often precedes significant moves.
Trader Benefit: Instantly understand current market character and adjust strategy accordingly.
FEATURE 3: VELOCITY DIVERGENCE DETECTION
This advanced feature monitors the formation speed of Momentum Flux Bars and compares it against price direction.
Velocity Divergence Bearish: Price making higher highs but MFBs forming progressively slower. Suggests buying pressure is weakening despite higher prices.
Velocity Divergence Bullish: Price making lower lows but MFBs forming progressively slower. Suggests selling pressure is weakening despite lower prices.
Trader Benefit: Early warning system for potential reversals before they appear on price charts.
FEATURE 4: MOMENTUM EXHAUSTION DETECTION
The system identifies when a trending move may be running out of energy by analyzing the duration pattern of consecutive same-direction MFBs.
Exhaustion Pattern: When each successive MFB in a trend takes progressively longer to form, it indicates diminishing momentum even though direction remains unchanged.
States Displayed:
- BUILDING: Momentum is increasing or stable
- PEAK: Maximum momentum velocity reached
- EXHAUSTING: Progressive slowdown detected
Trader Benefit: Know when a trend is losing steam before price reverses.
FEATURE 5: HIGHER TIMEFRAME ALIGNMENT
The indicator checks whether higher timeframe MFB direction supports or conflicts with current timeframe momentum.
ALIGNED BULL: Both timeframes showing bullish MFB direction
ALIGNED BEAR: Both timeframes showing bearish MFB direction
DIVERGENT: Timeframes showing opposing directions
NEUTRAL: Higher timeframe direction unclear
Trader Benefit: Trade with higher timeframe support for higher probability setups.
FEATURE 6: CHOPPY MARKET DETECTION
A dedicated algorithm analyzes recent MFB patterns to determine if the market is in a choppy, directionless state.
Detection Factors:
- Frequency of direction changes in recent MFBs
- Lack of consecutive same-direction formations
- Weak directional bias in the MFB sequence
Trader Benefit: Avoid trend-following strategies when market conditions do not support them.
FEATURE 7: TREND STRENGTH MEASUREMENT
A percentage-based strength reading derived from MFB pattern analysis.

RECOMMENDED USAGE GUIDELINES
TIMEFRAME RECOMMENDATIONS:
Scalping (1m to 5m):
- Use lower Flux Period (8-10) for faster response
- Focus on oscillator crossovers and histogram momentum
- Regime should be STEADY or EXPLOSIVE for best results
Day Trading (5m to 30m):
- Default settings work well
- Use HTF alignment with 1H or 4H for confirmation
- Avoid trading when regime shows DEAD
Swing Trading (1H to 4H):
- Consider higher Flux Period (18-21) for smoother signals
- Regime classification becomes very valuable
- Velocity divergence provides excellent early warnings
Position Trading (Daily and above):
- Higher Flux Period (21-30) recommended
- Focus on regime changes and exhaustion patterns
- HTF alignment less relevant, oscillator zones more important
ASSET CLASS NOTES:
Forex: Works well on major pairs. Consider slightly higher sensitivity on less volatile pairs.
Crypto: Higher volatility may require lower sensitivity multiplier. Regime detection particularly useful.
Stocks: Excellent for liquid stocks. Less effective on illiquid names due to gappy price action.
Indices: Very effective. Clean price action produces clean MFB patterns.
Commodities: Works well, especially on gold and oil. Adjust sensitivity for different volatility profiles.

WHAT THIS INDICATOR IS NOT
This indicator is NOT:
- A buy/sell signal generator (it provides momentum context, not trade signals)
- A standalone trading system (combine with price action and other analysis)
- A guarantee of profitability (no indicator can guarantee results)
- A replacement for risk management (always use proper position sizing and stops)
- A mashup of existing indicators (this is original methodology)
ORIGINALITY STATEMENT
The Momentum Flux Bars concept was designed specifically to address limitations of time-based momentum calculations.
Every component of this system serves the central MFB methodology:
- The oscillator measures MFB directional weight
- The regime classifier interprets MFB patterns
- The velocity analysis tracks MFB formation speed
- The exhaustion detector monitors MFB duration progression
- The HTF alignment checks MFB direction across timeframes
This is a unified analytical framework, not a collection of separate indicators.
TECHNICAL NOTES
Non-Repainting Confirmation:
All signal generation uses confirmed bar data only. MFB formations occur on bar close. Historical signals will not change after they appear.
Performance Considerations:
Auto-optimization runs periodically, not every bar, to maintain performance.
MFB history is trimmed to prevent memory issues on extended sessions.
Reduce Max MFB History if experiencing performance issues.
Symbol and Timeframe Handling:
The indicator resets its MFB history when symbol or timeframe changes.
This ensures clean analysis without carryover from previous contexts.

Version 1.0.0
SuperRSI: Enhanced MomentumSuperRSI is a next-generation momentum indicator designed to overcome the lag and noise found in the traditional Relative Strength Index (RSI). Unlike standard RSI which only looks at close prices, SuperRSI utilizes a unique "Titan Engine" logic that incorporates the full Price Range (Highs and Lows) to calculate momentum. This results in a smoother, more responsive oscillator that detects trend shifts earlier.
Key Features:
🚀 Range-Based Calculation: Factors in the expansion and contraction of price ranges, not just closing prices.
🎨 Dynamic Visuals: Beautiful gradient coloring that adapts to the trend (Bullish/Bearish) and visualizes Overbought/Oversold zones clearly.
⚡ Dual Signal System:
Slow Signal (Default): For reliable trend following.
Fast Signal (Optional): Can be enabled in settings for aggressive entries and scalping.
🔔 Comprehensive Alerts: Built-in alerts for RSI crossovers with Fast/Slow lines and Signal crossovers (Golden/Death Cross).
🛡️ Pine Script v6: Built on the latest version for maximum performance and stability.
How to Use:
Trend Confirmation: When the line is green and above 50, the trend is bullish. When red and below 50, the trend is bearish.
Overbought/Oversold: Look for reversals when the indicator exits the dotted zones (>80 or <20).
Signal Crossovers: Enable the "Fast Signal" in settings to trade the crossovers between the Fast and Slow signal lines (similar to MACD mechanics).
Settings:
Fully customizable colors and lengths.
Option to toggle the "Fast Signal" on or off (Hidden by default to keep the chart clean).
Mizan v7.8-S: Pure PSI ObserverDescription:
1. General Overview The Mizan v7.8-S is a specialized high-precision market observer designed to quantify the "Ontological Stability" of financial assets. Unlike traditional indicators that rely solely on price action, this tool projects market data onto a proprietary "PSI Scale" to measure the potential energy and structural integrity of a trend. It operates on the "Pure Justice" (Mizan) theoretical framework, distinguishing between constructive stability and chaotic degradation.
2. Key Features
Proprietary PSI Scoring: A unique algorithm that converts market momentum into a standardized stability score (0 - 310,000 Scale).
Stability Protocol Visualization: Automatically colors the trend line to indicate the current state of the asset (Green for Stable/Constructive, Red for Unstable/Chaotic).
Cyclic Time Markers: Includes deterministic time-cycle markers ("Pulse" and "Reset" points) to identify theoretical inflection points in the market rhythm.
Axiom Floor & Peak: Visual references for the theoretical limits of the analyzed asset.
3. How to Use
Trend Analysis: Observe the color of the PSI line. A transition from Red to Green indicates that the asset has crossed the critical threshold and entered a stable trend structure.
Cycle Timing: Use the geometric markers (Diamonds and Circles) to anticipate potential shifts in market rhythm or exhaustion points based on the Mizan temporal constants.
Risk Assessment: The distance of the PSI score from the "Axiom Peak" or "Axiom Floor" provides a perspective on the asset's current potential relative to its theoretical limits.
4. Invite-Only Access This script is a closed-source implementation of a proprietary algorithmic kernel ("Mizan Universal Kernel"). It contains protected logic and experimental constants derived from private research.
Access: Access to this indicator is restricted. To request access or learn more about the methodology, please contact me via private message on TradingView.
Note: This tool is intended for advanced cycle analysis and experimental observation.
QuantSignals: Integrated Geometric Momentum QualityIntegrated Geometric Momentum Quality is a momentum-quality oscillator designed to complement traditional momentum indicators, not replace them.
While most momentum tools focus on how much price has moved, IGMQ focuses on how efficiently price has moved. It evaluates whether momentum is supported by smooth, directional structure or distorted by noise and volatility.
IGMQ is path-aware rather than purely price-based.
It penalizes volatility that does not contribute to sustained progress, making it especially useful as a momentum filter in systematic or discretionary trading workflows.
IGMQ analyzes price behavior over a rolling window to determine:
Directional strength
Path efficiency
Structural consistency
The output is a normalized momentum quality score that increases when price movement is clean and persistent, and decreases when momentum becomes choppy or unstable.
How to Use It
This indicator works best as a confirmation and filtering tool, alongside indicators such as:
RSI
MACD
Rate of Change
Breakout or trend-following systems
Common applications:
Confirm whether momentum signals are supported by quality structure
Filter out trades during noisy or low-efficiency regimes
Rank symbols by momentum quality
Detect early degradation in trending conditions
Interpreting the Oscillator
Positive values → Upward momentum with structural quality
Negative values → Downward momentum with structural quality
Larger magnitude → Cleaner, more reliable momentum
Values near zero → Low-quality or indecisive movement
This helps distinguish between strong momentum and usable momentum.
Delta Divergence Alarm - XWiseTradeDetect hidden buying/selling pressure with real-time delta divergence alerts.
This indicator aggregates lower timeframe volume to calculate delta and triggers alerts when:
• Price makes a lower low/higher high but delta shows opposite pressure (hidden divergence)
Features:
• Supports ultra-low timeframes (1s, 15s, 1-15min)
• Visual labels on divergence candles
• Built-in alerts
• Debug mode for data issues
Perfect for spotting absorption, exhaustion, and potential reversals.
ALIEN WARP CORE [ULTIMATE] ALIEN WARP CORE is a multi-engine oscillator designed for chart analysis and visual clarity.
It lets you switch between several popular momentum engines and provides consistent visuals, optional filters, and clear signal markers.
What it includes
Multiple engines (selectable): Laguerre RSI, Connors RSI, Stochastic RSI, MFI, TDI, Standard RSI, and MACD (MT5-style).
Two-line systems: Signal line support in Stoch RSI / TDI / Standard RSI / MACD modes.
Trinity Color Logic: A dynamic gradient that helps visualize momentum bias (sell → neutral → buy).
Optional visual layers: “Nebula mist” bands and background warp color for easier reading.
Signals & markers: Buy/Sell labels, divergence markers, and midline retest markers (optional).
Filters (optional)
This script can apply extra confirmation filters:
EMA 200 trend filter
Momentum EMA filter (EMA 10 vs EMA 12)
ADX strength filter
RSI “safety” filter (blocks buys in extreme overbought, blocks sells in extreme oversold)
You can also enable Specific Signals for Standard RSI and MACD crossovers.
If Bypass Global Filters is enabled, those crossover signals can work independently from EMA/ADX filters.
How to use
Choose your preferred Engine in the settings.
Adjust lengths and visuals (line width, solid/gradient, mist opacity).
Enable filters if you want fewer signals and more confirmation.
Use divergence and retest markers as context, not as standalone trade triggers.
Important notes
This indicator is for educational and informational purposes only and does not provide financial advice.
Signals are not guaranteed and may repaint visually around pivot-based divergence detection.
Always backtest and combine with your own risk management.

VCTOS - Volatility & Candle Transition OscillatorShort Description (one-line summary)
Displays candle and volatility-based trend transitions using EMA relationships and adaptive dynamic thresholds.
Full Description
Overview
This VCTOS (Volatility & Candle Transition Oscillator System) indicator visualizes market structure, volatility, and transition phases using a custom oscillator-based candle model.
Its purpose is to provide contextual insight into pressure, strength, and loss of momentum, not to predict future price movement and not to provide trading signals.
________________________________________
What Makes This Script Distinct
The indicator is designed to make relative market strength observable:
• Taller candles reflect higher volatility
• Shorter candles reflect reduced activity
• Candles extending far beyond the threshold suggest stronger conditions
• Compression toward the threshold suggests weakening pressure
While the base calculations use EMA-derived components, the indicator’s distinguishing feature is its adaptive advanced threshold logic, which frames volatility in a consistent and measurable way across different conditions.
________________________________________
How to Read It
One way to interpret the oscillator candles is by comparing them against price to observe divergence, compression, and loss of momentum.
To support this, candles are labeled with incrementing numbers.
These numbers do not represent signals, probabilities, or trade instructions. They simply indicate how long a sequence has been developing.
The label colors reflect transition phases:
• Blue – early phase
• Orange – transition building
• Green – late phase
A green label indicates that a sequence has matured, not that a transition will occur. Interpreting whether this information is meaningful depends on broader market context.
________________________________________
Oscillator Candle Representation
Price action is transformed into candles plotted around a zero line in oscillator form.
Each candle reflects relative movement and is color-coded based on its current state:
• Green – upward pressure
• Orange – range or transitional behavior
• Red – downward pressure
Because absolute market tops and bottoms cannot be known in advance, the oscillator format focuses on relative extremes and structural behavior, rather than fixed price levels.
________________________________________
Dynamic Candle Threshold Line
A dotted Candle Threshold Line is plotted above and below the oscillator candles.
This line is not a simple average. It dynamically adapts using the most relevant extreme values observed over time, allowing it to adjust automatically to changing volatility conditions.
The threshold line serves as a reference zone where market conditions may become stretched. It is a dynamic indication only and should not be interpreted as a reversal level or predictive boundary.
________________________________________
Volatility Line
The indicator includes a Volatility Line representing directional pressure:
• Above zero – downward pressure
• Below zero – upward pressure
Short colored threshold lines appear on the indicator right areas where pressure threshold was in the past. These segments are contextual references, not triggers.
The slope and magnitude of the volatility line are emphasized, as they reflect increasing or decreasing pressure rather than binary conditions.
________________________________________
Timeframes and Assets
The indicator is designed to work on any asset and any timeframe.
The active timeframe is displayed in the top-right corner of the chart.
Using multiple timeframes can help place short-term structure within broader market context.
________________________________________
Usage Notes
• This indicator does not generate trade entries, exit signals, or financial recommendations.
• This indicator does not predict future price movement
• Colored candles and labels highlight contextual phases within market behavior and should not be interpreted as buy or sell signals.
• Zero-line interactions in the volatility line visually mark potential phase transitions, not confirmed trend changes.
• All visuals are intended for analytical and educational purposes only.
• Users are encouraged to integrate this indicator within their own analytical or confirmation framework.
• Numerical labels are iterative and do not carry standalone predictive meaning.
• The distance between the oscillator candles, the candle threshold line, and the volatility threshold levels can help visualize relative market strength and pressure, but should not be interpreted as a forecast or signal.
The indicator is intended as a market-structure and volatility visualization tool, not as a standalone decision system.
