TICK Indicator with Extreme AlertsOverview:
This indicator is designed to provide intraday traders (especially those trading SPX, ES, and NQ) with a clearer NYSE TICK analysis tool featuring visual alerts. Unlike traditional TICK line charts, this indicator utilizes OHLC Candlesticks to display data, allowing you to fully view the Open, High, Low, and Close within a specific timeframe, thereby capturing instantaneous liquidity sweeps.
Core Features & Logic:
Candlestick Visualization (OHLC Candles): Uses the USI:TICK.US data source by default. The candlestick patterns allow you to clearly see if the TICK pierced key levels intraday but retraced by the close—vital information that standard line charts often miss.
Dual Key Level System: The indicator is designed with two independent reference tiers for trend observation and reversal detection:
Reference Lines (+/- 800): Marked by gray dashed lines. These represent the standard bull/bear dividing zones. When TICK sustains above +800 or below -800, it typically indicates a strong trending market.
Extreme Alerts (+/- 1000): These thresholds are used to identify extreme market sentiment (overbought/oversold conditions).
Background Highlight Alerts (Visual Alerts): To reduce screen-watching fatigue, the indicator automatically highlights the candlestick background when extreme market sentiment occurs:
Green Background: Triggered when TICK High breaks above +1000. Represents extreme buying sentiment, potentially indicating exhaustion or a short squeeze.
Red Background: Triggered when TICK Low drops below -1000. Represents extreme panic selling (Washout), often serving as a potential signal for an intraday reversal or a short-term bottom.
Custom Settings:
All thresholds (800 reference lines, 1000 alert lines) are fully adjustable in the settings.
All colors (Candles, Reference Lines, Background Alert Colors) can be customized.
Use Cases: This tool is ideal for intraday counter-trend or trend-following trading when combined with Price Action analysis and key Support & Resistance levels.
M-oscillator
Jace's Range DetectionAttempts to identify when an instrument is trading in a range. It uses Price Movement %, ATR and ADX. The following parameters are configurable: Range Detection Period, Range Threshold(%), ATR Period, ATR Range Multiplier.
Unbounded RSI (Logit)Unbounded RSI-based oscillator using a logit transform for clearer momentum and divergence signals near extremes.
Unbounded RS from RSITransforms classic RSI into an unbounded oscillator using a logit transform, reducing 0–100 saturation and making momentum shifts and divergences near overbought/oversold levels much clearer.

AO+MACD — combines Awesome Oscillator (AO) for momentum with MACD for trend confirmation.
Divergence Detection
Identifies four types of price‑oscillator divergences:
Bullish regular (price lows vs. higher oscillator lows);
Bullish hidden (higher price lows vs. lower oscillator lows);
Bearish regular (price highs vs. lower oscillator highs);
Bearish hidden (lower price highs vs. higher oscillator highs).
Divergences are marked on the chart with labels and lines.
Customizable Parameters
Users can adjust:
Oscillator periods (e.g., RSI length, Stoch K/D smoothing, MACD fast/slow/signal lengths);

Momentum Divergence Oscillator by JJMomentum Divergence Oscillator by JJ
A powerful, all-in-one momentum tool designed to streamline trade confluence, combining multi-timeframe trend analysis with automatic divergence spotting and classic MACD signals.
How to Use This Indicator
This oscillator is designed to be used in the lower pane of your chart, beneath your primary price chart. It provides three main types of signals:
1. Multi-Timeframe (MTF) Trend Confirmation
The background shading is your primary trend filter. It looks at the MACD trend on two higher timeframes (30m and 60m by default) to confirm the market's overarching direction.
Green Shading: Indicates that both higher timeframes are in a bullish trend (MACD above signal line). Focus on looking for BUY signals during this time.
Red Shading: Indicates that both higher timeframes are in a bearish trend. Focus on looking for SELL signals during this time.
Grey/No Shading: The higher timeframes are not in agreement or are consolidating. Exercise caution or stick to standard price action rules.
2. Automatic Divergence Signals
Divergence is a powerful early warning system where the indicator moves in the opposite direction of the price. The indicator automatically flags these occurrences:
"Bull RSI Div" (Green Label-Up): Bullish divergence identified using the RSI oscillator. This suggests a potential reversal to the upside after a downtrend.
"Bear RSI Div" (Red Label-Down): Bearish divergence identified using the RSI oscillator. This suggests a potential reversal to the downside after an uptrend.
Tip: These signals are often most reliable when they occur within the corresponding MTF background colour (e.g., a "Bull RSI Div" during a Green MTF background).
3. Momentum Shifts and Crossovers
The standard plots provide immediate insight into market momentum:
Blue/Orange Lines: The traditional MACD line (Blue) and Signal line (Orange).
Histogram (Green/Red Bars): Represents the momentum difference between the MACD and Signal lines.
Zero-Line Crosses (Triangles): Tiny triangles appear when the MACD line crosses the zero line, indicating a shift in long-term momentum.
Peaks & Troughs (X-Crosses): The 'X' markers identify local peaks and troughs in the histogram, sometimes indicating short-term exhaustion of the current move.
Disclaimer: Trading involves significant risk and is not suitable for every investor. This indicator is for educational purposes only and should not be considered financial advice. Always use appropriate risk management.
Cjack COT IndexHere's the updated description with the formula and additional context:
---
**Cjack COT Index - Commitment of Traders Positioning Indicator**
This indicator transforms raw Commitment of Traders (COT) data into normalized 0-100 index values, making it easy to identify extreme positioning across different trader categories.
**How It Works:**
The indicator calculates a min-max normalized index for three trader groups over your chosen lookback period (default 26 weeks):
- **Large Speculators** (Non-commercial positions) - typically trend followers
- **Small Speculators** (Non-reportable positions) - retail traders
- **Commercial Hedgers** - producers and consumers hedging business risk
The normalization formula is: **Index = (Current Position - Minimum Position) / (Maximum Position - Minimum Position) × 100**
This calculation shows where current net positioning sits between the minimum and maximum levels observed in the lookback window. A reading of 100 means current positioning equals the maximum net long over that period, 0 equals the minimum (most net short), and 50 is the midpoint of the range.
**Important:** The lookback period critically affects index readings - shorter lookbacks (13-26 weeks) make the index more sensitive to recent extremes, while longer lookbacks (52-78 weeks) provide broader historical context and identify truly exceptional positioning. Min-max normalization is essential because it makes positioning comparable across different contracts and time periods, regardless of the absolute size of positions.
**What It's Good For:**
The indicator excels at identifying **crowded trades** and potential reversals by tracking contrarian setups where commercials (smart money) position opposite to speculators. Background highlighting automatically flags:
- **Long setups** (green): Commercials heavily long while speculators are heavily short
- **Short setups** (red): Commercials heavily short while speculators are heavily long
The "Shift Index" option (enabled by default) displays last week's tradeable COT data aligned with current price action, ensuring you're working with actionable information since COT reports publish with a delay.
Works on weekly timeframes and below for commodities and futures with available COT data.
Percentage Distance from 200-Week SMA200-Week SMA % Distance Oscillator (Clean & Simple)
This lightweight, no-nonsense indicator shows how far the current price is from the classic 200-week Simple Moving Average, expressed as a percentage.
Key features:
• True percentage distance: (Price − 200w SMA) / 200w SMA × 100
• Auto-scaling oscillator (no forced ±100% range → the line actually moves and looks alive)
• Clean zero line
• +10% overbought and −10% oversold levels with subtle background shading
• Real-time table showing the exact current percentage
• Small label on the last bar for instant reading
• Alert conditions when price moves >10% above or below the 200-week SMA
Why 200-week SMA?
Many legendary investors and hedge funds (Stan Druckenmiller, Paul Tudor Jones, etc.) use the 200-week SMA as their ultimate long-term trend anchor. Being +10% or more above it has historically signaled extreme optimism, while −10% or lower has marked deep pessimism and generational buying opportunities.
Perfect for Bitcoin, SPX, gold, individual stocks – works on any timeframe (looks especially good on daily and weekly charts).
Open-source • No repainting • Minimalist & fast
Enjoy and trade well!

How It Works:
The indicator calculates the spread as: (Futures Price - Spot Price) / Spot Price × 100
Positive spread = Futures trading at a premium (contango)
Negative spread = Futures trading at a discount (backwardation)
Zero = Parity between spot and futures
Use Cases:
Funding Rate Analysis - Correlates with perpetual funding rates
Arbitrage Opportunities - Identify significant spot-futures divergences
Market Sentiment - Premium/discount indicates bullish/bearish positioning
Cross-Exchange Analysis - Compare spreads when spot and futures are on different exchanges
Smart Features:

Automatically handles exchange-specific perpetual contract naming (.P, PERP, SWAP, etc.)
Color-coded visualization (green for premium, red for discount)
Customizable colors and display options
Background shading based on spread direction
Perfect For:
Crypto traders monitoring funding rates, arbitrage traders, market makers, and anyone interested in spot-futures dynamics across multiple exchanges.
Getting Started:
Simply add the indicator to any spot or perpetual futures chart. It will automatically detect the exchange and find the corresponding pair. The statistics table shows which exchanges are being used for maximum transparency.
Note: The indicator automatically ignores invalid symbols, so you'll never see errors even if a specific pair doesn't exist on a particular exchange.
Kudos to @AlekMel that made the "Spot - Fut Spread v2" indicator that I enhance the Automatic detection feature which was not working in some case.
Elder Force Index Alexander Elder's volume indicator. Stay in long as long as the background is green and there are no green crosses. The same applies for short.
Fear & Greed Oscillator - Risk SentimentThe Fear & Greed Oscillator – Risk Sentiment is a macro-driven sentiment indicator inspired by the popular Fear & Greed Index , but rebuilt from the ground up using real, market-based economic data and statistical normalization.
While the traditional Fear & Greed Index uses components like volatility, volume, and social media trends to estimate sentiment, this version is powered by the Copper/Gold ratio — a historically respected gauge of macroeconomic confidence and risk appetite.
📈 Expansion vs. Contraction Theory
At the heart of this oscillator is a simple macroeconomic insight:
🟢 Copper performs well during periods of economic expansion and risk-on behavior (industrials, construction, manufacturing growth).
🔴 Gold performs well during periods of economic contraction , as a classic risk-off, capital-preserving asset.
By tracking the ratio of Copper to Gold prices over time and converting it into a Z-score , this tool shows when macro sentiment is statistically stretched toward greed or fear — based on how unusually strong one side of the ratio is relative to its historical average.
⚙️ How It Works
The script takes two user-defined tickers (default: Copper and Gold) and calculates their ratio.
It then applies Z-score normalization over a user-defined period (default: 200 bars).
A color gradient line is plotted:
🔴 Z < -2 = Extreme Fear
🟣 -2 to 0 = Mild Fear to Neutral
🔵 0 to 2 = Neutral to Greed
🟢 Z > 2 = Extreme Greed
Visual guides at ±1, ±2, ±3 standard deviations give immediate context.
Includes alert conditions when the Z-score crosses above +2 (Greed) or below -2 (Fear).
🔔 Alerts
“Z-Score has entered the Greed Zone ” when Z > 2
“Z-Score has entered the Fear Zone ” when Z < -2
These are designed to help catch macro sentiment extremes before or during large shifts in market behavior.
⚠️ Disclaimer
This indicator is a macro sentiment tool, not a direct trading signal. While the Copper/Gold ratio often reflects economic risk trends, correlation with risk assets (like Bitcoin or equities) is not guaranteed and may vary by cycle. Always use this indicator in conjunction with other tools and contextual analysis.
ATR Trend + RSI Pullback Strategy [Profit-Focused]This strategy is designed to catch high-probability pullbacks during strong trends using a combination of ATR-based volatility filters, RSI exhaustion levels, and a trend-following entry model.
Strategy Logic
Rather than relying on lagging crossovers, this model waits for RSI to dip into oversold zones (below 40) while price remains above a long-term EMA (default: 200). This setup captures pullbacks in strong uptrends, allowing traders to enter early in a move while controlling risk dynamically.
To avoid entries during low-volatility conditions or sideways price action, it applies a minimum ATR filter. The ATR also defines both the stop-loss and take-profit levels, allowing the model to adapt to changing market conditions.
Exit logic includes:
A take-profit at 3× the ATR distance
A stop-loss at 1.5× the ATR distance
An optional early exit if RSI crosses above 70, signaling overbought conditions
Technical Details
Trend Filter: 200 EMA – must be rising and price must be above it
Entry Signal: RSI dips below 40 during an uptrend
Volatility Filter: ATR must be above a user-defined minimum threshold
Stop-Loss: 1.5× ATR below entry price
Take-Profit: 3.0× ATR above entry price
Exit on Overbought: RSI > 70 (optional early exit)
Backtest Settings
Initial Capital: $10,000
Position Sizing: 5% of equity per trade
Slippage: 1 tick
Commission: 0.075% per trade
Trade Direction: Long only
Timeframes Tested: 15m, 1H, and 30m on trending assets like BTCUSD, NAS100, ETHUSD
This model is tuned for positive P&L across trending environments and volatile markets.
Educational Use Only
This strategy is for educational purposes only and should not be considered financial advice. Past performance does not guarantee future results. Always validate performance on multiple markets and timeframes before using it in live trading.
Normalised Volume Oscillator [BackQuant]Normalised Volume Oscillator
A refined evolution of the Klinger Volume Oscillator, rebuilt for clarity, precision, and adaptability. This tool normalizes volume-driven momentum into a bounded scale so you can easily identify shifts in accumulation and distribution across any asset or timeframe, while keeping readings comparable between markets.
What this indicator does
The Normalised Volume Oscillator quantifies the balance between buying and selling pressure using the Klinger Volume Oscillator (KVO) as its base, then rescales it dynamically into a normalized range between -0.5 and +0.5. This normalization allows traders to interpret relative strength and exhaustion in volume flow, rather than dealing with raw unbounded values that differ across symbols.
It is a momentum-volume hybrid that reveals the strength of trend participation: when buyers dominate, normalized readings rise toward +0.5; when sellers dominate, they fall toward -0.5. The midline (0) acts as an equilibrium between accumulation and distribution.
Core components
Klinger Volume Oscillator: The foundation of this indicator, combining volume with price trend direction to measure long-term money flow relative to short-term movement.
Normalization process: The raw KVO is scaled over a user-defined Normalisation Period , computing `(KVO - lowest) / (highest - lowest) - 0.5`. This centers all readings around zero, allowing overbought/oversold detection independent of asset volatility or volume magnitude.
Signal moving average: The normalized KVO is smoothed with a user-selectable moving average type—SMA, EMA, DEMA, TEMA, HMA, ALMA, and others. This becomes the signal line for confirmation of trend direction or mean-reversion setups.
How it works conceptually
1. The KVO detects when volume supports price movement (bullish) or diverges from it (bearish).
2. The script normalizes the raw KVO so that relative magnitude is consistent—what is “strong buying pressure” looks the same on BTCUSD as it does on AAPL.
3. Overbought and oversold regions are derived statistically, rather than from arbitrary values, based on percentile zones around ±0.4 and ±0.5.
4. The oscillator is optionally combined with a moving average to help identify crossovers, momentum shifts, and divergence confirmation.
How to interpret it
Above 0: Indicates dominant buying pressure and likely continuation of upward momentum.
Below 0: Suggests dominant selling pressure and potential continuation of downward movement.
Crosses of 0: Often mark transitions between accumulation and distribution phases.
+0.4 to +0.5 zone: Overbought region where buying intensity is stretched; watch for deceleration or divergence.
[-0.4 to -0.5 zone: Oversold region indicating panic or exhaustion in selling.
Signal-line crossover: A traditional momentum confirmation method; when the normalized KVO crosses above its moving average, buyers regain control, and vice versa.
Why normalization matters
Typical volume oscillators are asset-specific—what is considered “high” volume for one symbol is not the same for another. By dynamically normalizing KVO values within a rolling lookback, this version transforms raw amplitude into a standardized scale. This means you can:
Compare multiple assets objectively.
Set consistent alert thresholds for overbought/oversold regions.
Avoid misleading interpretations from absolute oscillator values.
Customization and UI
Moving Average Type & Period: Select your preferred smoothing method (SMA, EMA, TEMA, etc.) and adjust its period to tune sensitivity.
Normalisation Period: Defines how many bars the KVO range is measured over; shorter periods adapt faster, longer ones smooth more.
Visual Toggles:
* Show Oscillator : enables or hides the core histogram.
* Show Moving Average : adds a smoothed overlay for signal confirmation.
* Paint Candles : optional color overlay for chart candles based on oscillator direction.
* Show Static Levels : displays ±0.4 and ±0.5 zones for overbought/oversold boundaries.
How to use it
Trend confirmation: Use midline (0) crossovers as confirmation of emerging trend shifts—cross above 0 suggests a new bullish phase, cross below 0 a bearish one.
Reversal spotting: Look for normalized readings reaching ±0.5 and flattening, or diverging against price extremes.
Divergence analysis: When price makes a new high but the normalized oscillator fails to, it signals waning buying conviction (and vice versa for lows).
Multi-timeframe integration: Works best alongside higher timeframe trend filters or moving averages; normalization makes this consistent.
Alerts
Prebuilt alert conditions allow quick automation:
Midline crossovers (0): transition between accumulation and distribution.
Overbought (+0.4) and Oversold (-0.4) triggers for potential exhaustion.
Signal moving-average crosses for confirmation entries.
Tips for use
Combine with price structure—don’t fade every overbought/oversold reading; confirm with break of structure or candle patterns.
Use longer normalization periods for position trading, shorter for intraday analysis.
In choppy markets, treat 0-line oscillations as noise filters, not trade triggers.
Summary
The Normalised Volume Oscillator modernizes the classic Klinger Volume Oscillator by normalizing its readings into a standardized range. This makes it more adaptive across assets and timeframes, improves interpretability, and provides intuitive, data-driven overbought/oversold levels. Whether used standalone or as a confirmation layer, it offers a clearer view of volume dynamics—revealing when markets are truly being accumulated, distributed, or stretched beyond their sustainable extremes.

indicator CalibrationIndicator Calibration - Multi-Indicator Consensus System
Overview
Indicator Calibration is a powerful consensus-based trading indicator that leverages the MyIndicatorLibrary (NormalizedIndicators) to combine multiple trend-following indicators into a single, actionable signal. By averaging the normalized outputs of up to 8 different trend indicators, this tool provides traders with a clear consensus view of market direction, reducing noise and false signals inherent in single-indicator approaches.
The indicator outputs a value between -1 (strong bearish) and +1 (strong bullish), with 0 representing a neutral market state. This creates an intuitive, easy-to-read oscillator that synthesizes multiple analytical perspectives into one coherent signal.
🎯 Core Concept
Consensus Trading Philosophy
Rather than relying on a single indicator that may give conflicting or premature signals, Indicator Calibration employs a democratic voting system where multiple indicators contribute their normalized opinion:
Each enabled indicator votes: +1 (bullish), -1 (bearish), or 0 (neutral)
The votes are averaged to create a consensus signal
Strong consensus (closer to ±1) indicates high agreement among indicators
Weak consensus (closer to 0) indicates market indecision or transition
Key Benefits
Reduced False Signals: Multiple indicators must agree before strong signals appear
Noise Filtering: Individual indicator quirks are smoothed out by averaging
Customizable: Enable/disable indicators and adjust parameters to suit your trading style
Universal Application: Works across all timeframes and asset classes
Clear Visualization: Simple line oscillator with clear bull/bear zones

Smart RSI Money Flow - Core Bands V1.01SMART RSI – Money Flow Bands (Technical Overview)
1. Background: RSI and Its Behavior on Lower Timeframes
The Relative Strength Index (RSI) originally is a momentum oscillator calculated from average gains and losses over a selected period. In its standard form, RSI is derived solely from price changes; it does not incorporate volume data or order-flow information in its formula.
Because RSI is price-based, its interpretation depends strongly on the timeframe:
• On higher timeframes, each bar aggregates more trading activity, and RSI tends to behave more smoothly.
• On lower timeframes (1-hour down to intraday scalping intervals), price fluctuations are quicker, and RSI becomes more sensitive to short-term noise.
This does not imply that RSI becomes invalid, but that its signals on fast charts can be more reactive and may benefit from additional context such as volume behavior or structural information.
2. Purpose of This Indicator
This indicator extends the classical RSI by adding information that RSI does not include:
• Mapping RSI values into price-based bands instead of the 0–100 oscillator space.
• Retrieving lower timeframe volume data and separating it into buy and sell components.
• Comparing the slope (angle) of price movement with the slope of buy and sell volume.
The goal is to provide a structural interpretation of where price sits relative to RSI conditions and how volume is behaving on a lower timeframe.
3. Technical Differences Compared to Classical RSI
A) Classical RSI
• Input: price only (usually close).
• Output: normalized oscillator between 0 and 100.
• Does not incorporate intra-bar volume distribution.
• Does not separate buy/sell volume.
B) SMART RSI – Money Flow Bands
1) RSI-to-Price Mapping
Converts RSI values into upper/lower price bands using recent price extremes.
2) Lower Timeframe Volume Decomposition
Retrieves LTF data and splits each bar’s volume into buy (close>open) and sell (close
TASC 2025.12 The One Euro Filter█ OVERVIEW
This script implements the One Euro filter, developed by Georges Casiez, Nicolas Roussel, and Daniel Vogel, and adapted by John F. Ehlers in his article "Low-Latency Smoothing" from the December 2025 edition of the TASC Traders' Tips . The original creators gave the filter its name to suggest that it is cheap and efficient, like something one might purchase for a single Euro.
█ CONCEPTS
The One Euro filter is an EMA-based low-pass filter that adapts its smoothing factor (alpha) based on the absolute values of smoothed rates of change in the source series. It was designed to filter noisy, high-frequency signals in real time with low latency. Ehlers simplifies the filter for market analysis by calculating alpha in terms of bar periods rather than time and frequency, because periods are naturally intuitive for a discrete financial time series.
In his article, Ehlers demonstrates how traders can apply the adaptive One Euro filter to a price series for simple low-latency smoothing. Additionally, he explains that traders can use the filter as a smoothed oscillator by applying it to a high-pass filter. In essence, similar to other low-pass filters, traders can apply the One Euro filter to any custom source to derive a smoother signal with reduced noise and low lag.
This script applies the One Euro filter to a specified source series, and it applies the filter to a two-pole high-pass filter or other oscillator, depending on the selected "Osc type" option. By default, it displays the filtered source series on the main chart pane, and it shows the oscillator and its filtered series in a separate pane.
█ INPUTS
Source: The source series for the first filter and the selected oscillator.
Min period: The minimum cutoff period for the smoothing calculation.
Beta: Controls the responsiveness of the filter. The filter adds the product of this value and the smoothed source change to the minimum period to determine the filter's smoothing factor. Larger values cause more significant changes in the maximum cutoff period, resulting in a smoother response.
Osc type: The type of oscillator to calculate for the pane display. By default, the indicator calculates a high-pass filter. If the selected type is "None", the indicator displays the "Source" series and its filtered result in a separate pane rather than showing the filter on the main chart. With this setting, users can pass plotted values from another indicator and view the filtered result in the pane.
Period: The length for the selected oscillator's calculation.

It’s a **visual fusion** of:
- **MACD Histogram** → Momentum & Trend Strength
- **RSI** → Overbought/Oversold & Trend Confirmation
- **Dynamic Transparency** → Visualizes **signal strength**
The result? **At-a-glance confirmation of bullish/bearish phases** — no need to check subcharts.
---
## OVERVIEW: What This Indicator Does
| Feature | Purpose |
|-------|--------|
| **Replaces price candles** | Entire chart becomes a **live MACD-RSI signal map** |
| **Colors based on dual confirmation** | Only strong when **both** MACD and RSI agree |
| **Transparency = momentum intensity** | Brighter = stronger signal |
| **Labels & Alerts** | Highlights **phase changes** (bullish/bearish shifts) |
---
## USER INPUTS (Customizable)
| Input | Default | Description |
|------|--------|-----------|
| `fastLen` | 12 | MACD Fast EMA |
| `slowLen` | 26 | MACD Slow EMA |
| `signalLen` | 9 | MACD Signal Line |
| `rsiLen` | 14 | RSI Period |
| `showLabels` | true | Show "Bullish Phase" / "Bearish Phase" labels |
> Standard settings — tweak for sensitivity.
---
## CORE CALCULATIONS
### 1. **MACD**
```pinescript
macdLine = ta.ema(close, fastLen) - ta.ema(close, slowLen)
signalLine = ta.ema(macdLine, signalLen)
hist = macdLine - signalLine
```
- `hist > 0` → **Bullish momentum**
- `hist < 0` → **Bearish momentum**
### 2. **RSI**
```pinescript
rsi = ta.rsi(close, rsiLen)
```
- `rsi > 50` → **Bullish bias**
- `rsi < 50` → **Bearish bias**
---
## DUAL CONFIRMATION LOGIC
| Condition | Meaning |
|--------|--------|
| `bullCond = macdBull and rsiBull` | **MACD hist > 0** AND **RSI > 50** → **Confirmed Bullish** |
| `bearCond = macdBear and rsiBear` | **MACD hist < 0** AND **RSI < 50** → **Confirmed Bearish** |
| Otherwise | **Neutral / Conflicted** |
> Only **strong, aligned signals** get bright colors.
---
## DYNAMIC INTENSITY & TRANSPARENCY (Key Feature)
```pinescript
maxHist = ta.highest(math.abs(hist), 100)
intensity = math.abs(hist) / maxHist
transp = 90 - (intensity * 80)
```
### How It Works:
1. Finds **strongest MACD histogram value** in last 100 bars
2. Compares **current histogram** to that peak → `intensity` (0 to 1)
3. **Transparency scales from 90 (faint) → 10 (bright)**
| Intensity | Transparency | Visual Effect |
|---------|--------------|-------------|
| 0% (weak) | 90 | Almost transparent |
| 50% | 50 | Medium |
| 100% | 10 | **Vivid, bold candle** |
> **Brighter candle = stronger momentum relative to recent history**
---
## CANDLE COLOR LOGIC
| Condition | Candle & Wick Color | Transparency |
|--------|---------------------|------------|
| **Confirmed Bullish** (`bullCond`) | **Lime Green** | Dynamic (10–90) |
| **Confirmed Bearish** (`bearCond`) | **Red** | Dynamic (10–90) |
| **Neutral / Conflicted** | **Gray** | Fixed 80 (faint) |
> **Wicks and borders match body** → full candle takeover
---
## VISUAL OUTPUT

Frequency Momentum Oscillator [QuantAlgo]🟢 Overview
The Frequency Momentum Oscillator applies Fourier-based spectral analysis principles to price action to identify regime shifts and directional momentum. It calculates Fourier coefficients for selected harmonic frequencies on detrended price data, then measures the distribution of power across low, mid, and high frequency bands to distinguish between persistent directional trends and transient market noise. This approach provides traders with a quantitative framework for assessing whether current price action represents meaningful momentum or merely random fluctuations, enabling more informed entry and exit decisions across various asset classes and timeframes.
🟢 How It Works
The calculation process removes the dominant trend from price data by subtracting a simple moving average, isolating cyclical components for frequency analysis:
detrendedPrice = close - ta.sma(close , frequencyPeriod)
The detrended price series undergoes frequency decomposition through Fourier coefficient calculation across the first 8 harmonics. For each harmonic frequency, the algorithm computes sine and cosine components across the lookback window, then derives power as the sum of squared coefficients:
for k = 1 to 8
cosSum = 0.0
sinSum = 0.0
for n = 0 to frequencyPeriod - 1
angle = 2 * math.pi * k * n / frequencyPeriod
cosSum := cosSum + detrendedPrice * math.cos(angle)
sinSum := sinSum + detrendedPrice * math.sin(angle)
power = (cosSum * cosSum + sinSum * sinSum) / frequencyPeriod
Power measurements are aggregated into three frequency bands: low frequencies (harmonics 1-2) capturing persistent cycles, mid frequencies (harmonics 3-4), and high frequencies (harmonics 5-8) representing noise. Each band's power normalizes against total spectral power to create percentage distributions:
lowFreqNorm = totalPower > 0 ? (lowFreqPower / totalPower) * 100 : 33.33
highFreqNorm = totalPower > 0 ? (highFreqPower / totalPower) * 100 : 33.33
The normalized frequency components undergo exponential smoothing before calculating spectral balance as the difference between low and high frequency power:
smoothLow = ta.ema(lowFreqNorm, smoothingPeriod)
smoothHigh = ta.ema(highFreqNorm, smoothingPeriod)
spectralBalance = smoothLow - smoothHigh
Spectral balance combines with price momentum through directional multiplication, producing a composite signal that integrates frequency characteristics with price direction:
momentum = ta.change(close , frequencyPeriod/2)
compositeSignal = spectralBalance * math.sign(momentum)
finalSignal = ta.ema(compositeSignal, smoothingPeriod)
The final signal oscillates around zero, with positive values indicating low-frequency dominance coupled with upward momentum (trending up), and negative values indicating either high-frequency dominance (choppy market) or downward momentum (trending down).
🟢 How to Use This Indicator
→ Long/Short Signals: the indicator generates long signals when the smoothed composite signal crosses above zero (indicating low-frequency directional strength dominates) and short signals when it crosses below zero (indicating bearish momentum persistence).
→ Upper and Lower Reference Lines: the +25 and -25 reference lines serve as threshold markers for momentum strength. Readings beyond these levels indicate strong directional conviction, while oscillations between them suggest consolidation or weakening momentum. These references help traders distinguish between strong trending regimes and choppy transitional periods.
→ Preconfigured Presets: three optimized configurations are available with Default (32, 3) offering balanced responsiveness, Fast Response (24, 2) designed for scalping and intraday trading, and Smooth Trend (40, 5) calibrated for swing trading and position trading with enhanced noise filtration.
→ Built-in Alerts: the indicator includes three alert conditions for automated monitoring - Long Signal (momentum shifts bullish), Short Signal (momentum shifts bearish), and Signal Change (any directional transition). These alerts enable traders to receive real-time notifications without continuous chart monitoring.
→ Color Customization: four visual themes (Classic green/red, Aqua blue/orange, Cosmic aqua/purple, Custom) allow chart customization for different display environments and personal preferences.
CandelaCharts - Trend Oscillator 📝 Overview
Trend Oscillator is a simple yet effective trend identification tool that uses the relationship between two exponential moving averages (EMAs) to determine market direction. It calculates the spread between a fast and slow EMA, applies a bias multiplier, and smooths the result to produce a clean oscillator that oscillates above and below a zero line. When the oscillator is above zero, the trend is considered bullish (upward); when below zero, it's bearish (downward). The indicator provides clear visual feedback through color-coded plots and optional price bar coloring, making it easy to identify trend direction at a glance.
📦 Features
This section highlights the core capabilities you'll rely on most.
Dual EMA system — Uses a fast EMA (default 9) and slow EMA (default 21) to capture trend momentum and direction.
Bias multiplier — Applies a small multiplier (default 1.001) to the EMA spread, providing a slight bias that helps filter noise and confirm trend strength.
Smoothed output — Applies an additional EMA smoothing (default 5 periods) to the raw spread, creating a cleaner, less choppy oscillator line.
Zero-line reference — Plots a horizontal zero line that serves as the critical threshold between bullish and bearish conditions.
Color-coded visualization — Automatically colors the oscillator line green/lime when bullish (above zero) and red when bearish (below zero).
Price bar coloring — Optional feature to color price bars based on the current trend direction, providing immediate visual context on the main chart.
Customizable parameters — Adjust EMA lengths, bias multiplier, smoothing period, and colors to match your trading style and timeframe.
⚙️ Settings
Use these controls to fine-tune the oscillator's sensitivity, appearance, and behavior.
Fast EMA Length — Period for the fast exponential moving average (default: 9). Lower values make the indicator more responsive to price changes.
Slow EMA Length — Period for the slow exponential moving average (default: 21). Higher values create a smoother baseline for trend identification.
Bias Multiplier — Multiplier applied to the EMA spread (default: 1.001). Small adjustments can help filter minor whipsaws and confirm trend strength.
Smoothing Length — Period for smoothing the raw spread calculation (default: 5). Higher values create a smoother oscillator line but may lag price action.
Colors — Set the bullish (default: lime) and bearish (default: red) colors for the oscillator line.
Color Price Bars — Toggle to enable/disable coloring of price bars based on the current trend direction.

📒 Usage
Follow these steps to effectively use Trend Oscillator for trend identification and trading decisions.
1) Select your timeframe — The indicator works across all timeframes, but higher timeframes (daily, weekly, monthly) typically provide more reliable trend signals with less noise. Lower timeframes (1m, 5m, 15m) may produce more frequent but potentially less reliable signals. Consider your trading style: swing traders benefit from daily/weekly charts, while day traders can use 15m/1h timeframes. Always align the indicator's sensitivity with your timeframe choice.
2) Adjust EMA lengths — The default 9/21 combination works well for most cases. For faster signals, try 5/13; for slower, more conservative signals, try 12/26 or 20/50. Match the lengths to your trading style and timeframe.
3) Interpret the zero line — When the oscillator is above zero (green/lime), the trend is bullish. When below zero (red), the trend is bearish. The further from zero, the stronger the trend.
4) Watch for crossovers — Trend changes occur when the oscillator crosses the zero line. A cross from below to above indicates a shift to bullish; from above to below indicates a shift to bearish.
5) Identify divergences — Divergences can signal potential trend reversals. Bullish divergence : price makes lower lows while the oscillator makes higher lows (suggests weakening bearish momentum). Bearish divergence : price makes higher highs while the oscillator makes lower highs (suggests weakening bullish momentum). Divergences are most reliable when they occur near extreme levels and should be confirmed with price action before taking trades.
6) Use smoothing wisely — The smoothing parameter helps reduce noise but adds lag. Lower smoothing (3-5) is more responsive; higher smoothing (7-10) is more stable but slower to react.
7) Combine with price action — Use the oscillator to confirm trend direction, then look for entry opportunities when price pulls back in the direction of the trend. The optional price bar coloring helps visualize trend alignment on the main chart.
8) Filter with bias multiplier — The bias multiplier can help reduce false signals. Experiment with values between 1.000 and 1.005 to find the sweet spot for your instrument and timeframe.
