HRC - Hash Rate Capitulation [Da_Prof]The HRC (Hash Rate Capitulation) indicator is a measure of hash rate trend strength. It is the fractional difference between a long and a short simple moving average (SMA) of the bitcoin hash rate. Historically, the 21-day and 105-day SMA work well for this indicator. The hash rate generally increases over time, but when the short SMA crosses below the longer-term SMA, it shows that miners are removing significant hash from the system. This state can be considered a miner "capitulation". Historically, this has marked depressed BTC prices and has led to higher prices within some months. Shout out to foosmoo, the hash rate oscillator indicator prompted this presentation.

Flush Percent RangeFans of Woodies CCI may recognize the approach to this one. This is my attempt at using the same methods but for taking the highs and lows into account without the standard deviation of the CCI. The smoothness of other oscillators may not be ideal however the Williams Percent Range is a fast stochastic that also operates within a channel. This provides an alternative yet still complex view for the virtuoso. A unique feature is total utilization of the weighted moving average, from the standard to the more complex. A fun fact is the Hull Moving Average is actually calculated using weighted moving averages.
How to use:
The base length is for accuracy, the fast length is for catching all the moves(even the wrong ones sometimes.)
The bars back option will not flip the histogram/base trend to its bullish/bearish alternative until the base plot remains on the latter half of the oscillator for a certain number of bars. This can be set to zero if desired.
The factor controls the chop on the various levels. A higher number will increase it.
The oscillator levels are measuring slope, price relative to the average, and a summation of percent changes between the two. Both the baseline/histogram and the levels have color coding for bullishness, bearishness, and indecision(depending on the factor.) The fast line matches the indecision color by default. This is all customizable.
There are many potential ways to trade with this indicator. From hooks back toward the trend and range line crossovers to divergence and reversals. It's important to note the current performance of the oscillator levels. Time cycles may come in handy along with other forecasting tools.
Lastly, there are optional linear regression lines plotted on the chart. They're synchronized to the lengths in the oscillator. This is an additional visual aid to provide context to the direction of the channel.
Overall the Flush Percent Range is for analyzing multiple regression models within a single price channel. No smoothing, fast averages, and specified timeframes of highs/lows. Credit to Larry Williams for the original calculation and Ken Woods for design/methodology inspiration.
Deviation in Euclidean Distance from the Kaspa Power Law v3.0🔶 First we need to understand what Power Laws are.
Power laws are mathematical relationships where one quantity varies as a power of another. They are prevalent in both natural and social systems, describing phenomena such as earthquake magnitudes, word frequencies, and wealth distributions. In a power-law relationship, a change in one quantity results in a proportional change in another, typically following a consistent and predictable mathematical pattern.
🔶 Why Do Power Laws work for Bitcoin and Kaspa?
Power laws work for Bitcoin and Kaspa due to the underlying principles of network dynamics and growth patterns that these cryptocurrencies exhibit. Here's how:
1. Network Growth and User Adoption:
Both Bitcoin and Kaspa grow as more users join their networks. The value of these networks often increases in a manner consistent with Metcalfe’s Law, which states that the value of a network is proportional to the square of its number of users. This relationship is a form of a power law, where network effects lead to exponential growth as more users participate.
2. Mining and Hash Rate:
The mining difficulty and hash rate in cryptocurrencies like Bitcoin and Kaspa adjust based on network activity. As more miners join, the difficulty increases to maintain a stable rate of block production. This self-adjusting mechanism creates feedback loops that can be described by power laws, ensuring the stability and security of the network over time.
3. Price Behavior:
Astrophysicist Giovanni Santostasi discovered that Bitcoin’s price follows a power-law distribution over time. This means that despite short-term volatility, Bitcoin’s long-term price behavior is predictable and adheres to specific mathematical patterns. Santostasi's model provides a framework for understanding Bitcoin’s price movements and forecasting future trends. He also discovered that Kaspa might be following a power-law aswell but it might be to early to tell because Kaspa hasn't been around for too long(2years).
4. Resource Allocation and System Stability:
As the price of Bitcoin or Kaspa increases, more resources are allocated to mining, leading to more sophisticated mining operations. This iterative process of investment and technological advancement follows a power-law pattern, driving the growth and stability of the network.
In summary, the application of power laws to Bitcoin and Kaspa offers a structured framework for understanding their price movements, network growth, and overall stability. These principles provide valuable predictive tools for long-term forecasting, helping to explain the dynamic behavior of these cryptocurrencies.
🔶 What does it look like on a chart?
Here is the Kaspa power law plotted on the KaspaUSD chart. Notice that the y-axis is in logarithmic scale. Unfortunately, TradingView does not allow the x-axis to be in logarithmic scale, which would otherwise make the power law appear as a straight line.
🔶 What is the deviation in Euclidean Distance from the Power Law?
Euclidean distance is a way to measure the straight-line distance between two points in a multi-dimensional space. When applied to a power law, it measures how far a data point is from the value predicted by the power-law formula.
🔶 Why are we measuring the Euclidean Distance from the Power Law & Discovery
On June 2, 2024, Plan C on Twitter announced a significant discovery: he and Dr. Giovanni Santostasi found that by examining the Euclidean distance from the Bitcoin power law, normalizing the data, and plotting it on an oscillator, it is possible to predict or time the market. In his post, Plan C hinted at the concept of "two-dimensional deviation," describing the result as the ultimate tool for navigating Bitcoin cycles. So, applying this technique to Kaspa, the only other cryptocurrency that might follow a power law might be a great idea!
This discovery leverages the power-law principles to create a sophisticated market timing tool, potentially offering insights into both Bitcoin and Kaspa's price movements.
🔶 Visual Representation of the Normalized Deviation in Euclidean Distance from the Kaspa Power Law
Steps Involved to visualize the indicator/oscillator:
1. Power Law Calculation:
The theoretical price is computed using the Power Law formula. This formula is based on the number of days since Kaspa's genesis block, simulating an ideal price growth trajectory.
2. Deviation Calculation:
For each day, the actual price is compared against the power law price for a range of days around the current date. The Euclidean Distance in days is the smallest number of days (either past or future) where this deviation is minimized.
3. Normalization:
The raw deviations over a fixed window are scaled to fit within a range of -100, 100. This normalized value is then smoothed using a simple moving average to produce a more readable oscillator.
4. Dynamic Coloring:
The oscillator's line color changes dynamically based on its value, providing an intuitive visual cue for traders.
🔶 Using the Oscillator
This indicator is best used on the Daily chart for KASUSD - crypto because it uses a power law formula based on days.
Identify Extremes:
When the oscillator shows high positive or negative values, it signals potential market extremes. This can help traders decide when to buy (when the market is oversold) or sell (when the market is overbought).
Values near -100 or 100 indicate significant deviation from the power law, highlighting potential market extremes.
🔶 Indicator Option's & Settings
Smooth Trends:
The smoothed line of the oscillator helps filter out market noise, allowing traders to focus on broader trends rather than short-term fluctuations.
Customize Your Analysis with Adjustable Price Sources:
One of the standout features of the Oscillator is its flexibility in using different price sources. You can customize the price source to better suit your trading style and analysis needs.
Price Source Selection:
The indicator allows you to choose the price source for its calculations. By default, it uses the average price of the daily candle (OHLC4), but you can adjust this to other price metrics such as the closing price, opening price, or any custom input.
Using Different Price Sources:
Using the daily candle average provides a balanced view of the day's trading activity, smoothing out intraday volatility.
Custom daily price sources:
Daily Highs:
Setting the price source to the daily high can help identify the maximum deviation when the market reaches its highest point during the day. This can be useful for spotting overbought conditions and potential resistance levels.
Daily Lows:
Conversely, using the daily low as the price source can highlight when the market hits its lowest point, indicating potential oversold conditions and support levels.
This flexibility ensures that the oscillator can be tailored to different trading strategies, allowing you to refine your analysis and make more informed decisions based on the price metrics most relevant to you.
By leveraging the Kaspa Power Law Deviation Oscillator, traders can gain a clearer perspective on market movements, making more informed decisions based on the deviation from a theoretically ideal price path. This tool adds another layer of insight to your trading strategy, helping you navigate the market with greater confidence.
🔶 LIMITATIONS
Like any technical analysis tool, the Deviation in Euclidean distance from the Kaspa Power law indicator has limitations. It's based on historical data, which may not always accurately predict future market movements.
RSI DeviationAn oscillator which de-trends the Relative Strength Index. Rather, it takes a moving average of RSI and plots it's standard deviation from the MA, similar to a Bollinger %B oscillator. This seams to highlight short term peaks and troughs, Indicating oversold and overbought conditions respectively. It is intended to be used with a Dollar Cost Averaging strategy, but may also be useful for Swing Trading, or Scalping on lower timeframes.
When the line on the oscillator line crosses back into the channel, it signals a trade opportunity.
~ Crossing into the band from the bottom, indicates the end of an oversold condition, signaling a potential reversal. This would be a BUY signal.
~ Crossing into the band from the top, indicates the end of an overbought condition, signaling a potential reversal. This would be a SELL signal.
For ease of use, I've made the oscillator highlight the main chart when Overbought/Oversold conditions are occurring, and place fractals upon reversion to the Band. These repaint as they are calculated at close. The earliest trade would occur upon open of the following day.
I have set the default St. Deviation to be 2, but in my testing I have found 1.5 to be quite reliable. By decreasing the St. Deviation you will increase trade frequency, to a point, at the expense of efficiency.
Cheers

TSI w SuperTrend decision - Strategy [presentTrading]This strategy aims to improve upon the performance of Traidngview's newly published "Trend Strength Index" indicator by incorporating the SuperTrend for better trade execution and risk management. Enjoy :)
█ Introduction and How it is Different
The "TSI with SuperTrend Decision - Strategy" combines the Trend Strength Index (TSI) with SuperTrend indicators to determine entry and exit points. Unlike traditional strategies that rely solely on one indicator, this method leverages the strengths of both TSI and SuperTrend to provide a more nuanced and adaptive trading strategy.
This dual approach allows for capturing trends more effectively, especially in volatile markets.
BTCUSD 8h LS Performance
█ Strategy, How it Works: Detailed Explanation
🔶 Trend Strength Index (TSI)
The TSI is a momentum oscillator that shows both the direction and strength of a trend. It is calculated by comparing the price movement with the bar index over a specified period. The formula for TSI is as follows:
```
TSI = (PC / |PC|)
where:
PC = Change in price over the period
```
In this strategy, TSI is calculated using the closing prices and a default period of 64 bars. The TSI values help identify overbought and oversold conditions, providing signals for potential market reversals.
🔶 SuperTrend Indicator
The SuperTrend is a trend-following indicator based on the average true range (ATR). It helps in identifying the direction of the market trend. The SuperTrend calculation involves:
```
SuperTrend = HLC3 ± (Factor * ATR)
where:
HLC3 = (High + Low + Close) / 3
Factor = User-defined multiplier
ATR = Average True Range over a period
```
The SuperTrend settings in this strategy include a length of 10 bars and a factor of 3.0.
Last Bull Cycle of BTC
🔶 Entry and Exit Conditions
The strategy uses the TSI and SuperTrend together to determine entry and exit points:
- Long Entry: When the SuperTrend indicates a downward trend (st.d < 0) and the TSI is above the oversold level (-0.241).
- Long Exit: When the SuperTrend indicates an upward trend (st.d > 0) and the TSI is below the overbought level (0.241).
- Short Entry: When the SuperTrend indicates an upward trend (st.d > 0) and the TSI is below the overbought level (0.241).
- Short Exit: When the SuperTrend indicates a downward trend (st.d < 0) and the TSI is above the oversold level (-0.241).
█ Trade Direction
The strategy allows users to select the trade direction through the `tradeDirection` input. The options are:
- Both: Enables both long and short trades.
- Long: Enables only long trades.
- Short: Enables only short trades.
█ Default Settings
- TSI Length: 64
- SuperTrend Length: 10
- SuperTrend Factor: 3.0
- Trade Direction: Both
- Take Profit (%): 30.0
- Stop Loss (%): 20.0
Impact of Default Settings
- TSI Length: A longer TSI period smooths out noise but may lag in identifying trends. A shorter period is more responsive but can generate false signals.
- SuperTrend Length: A shorter length provides quicker signals but can be prone to whipsaws. A longer length is more reliable but may delay entries and exits.
- SuperTrend Factor: A higher factor increases the distance of the SuperTrend from the price, reducing sensitivity to minor price fluctuations.
- Trade Direction: Allows flexibility in trading strategies by enabling both long and short trades based on market conditions.
- Take Profit and Stop Loss: These settings manage risk by automatically closing trades at predefined profit or loss levels. Higher percentages provide larger potential gains but also higher risk.
ADX with Donchian Channels
The "ADX with Donchian Channels" indicator combines the Average Directional Index (ADX) with Donchian Channels to provide traders with a powerful tool for identifying trends and potential breakouts.
Features:
Average Directional Index (ADX):
The ADX is used to quantify the strength of a trend. It helps traders determine whether a market is trending or ranging.
Adjustable parameters for ADX smoothing and DI length allow traders to fine-tune the sensitivity of the trend strength measurement.
Donchian Channels on ADX:
Donchian Channels are applied directly to the ADX values to highlight the highest high and lowest low of the ADX over a specified period.
The upper and lower Donchian Channels can signal potential trend breakouts when the ADX value moves outside these bounds.
The middle Donchian Channel provides a reference for the average trend strength.
Visualization:
The indicator plots the ADX line in red to clearly display the trend strength.
The upper and lower Donchian Channels are plotted in blue, with a green middle line to represent the average.
The area between the upper and lower Donchian Channels is filled with a blue shade to visually emphasize the range of ADX values.
Default Settings for Scalping:
Donchian Channel Length: 10
Standard Deviation Multiplier: 1.58
ADX Length: 2
ADX Smoothing Length: 2
These default settings are optimized for scalping, offering a quick response to changes in trend strength and potential breakout signals. However, traders can adjust these settings to suit different trading styles and market conditions.
How to Use:
Trend Strength Identification: Use the ADX line to identify the strength of the current trend. Higher ADX values indicate stronger trends.
Breakout Signals: Monitor the ADX value in relation to the Donchian Channels. A breakout above the upper channel or below the lower channel can signal a potential trend continuation or reversal.
Range Identification: The filled area between the Donchian Channels provides a visual representation of the ADX range, helping traders identify when the market is ranging or trending.
This indicator is designed to enhance your trading strategy by combining trend strength measurement with breakout signals, making it a versatile tool for various market conditions.
Glitch IndexGlitch Index is an oscillator from an unknown origin that is discovered in 2013 as a lua indicator taken from MetaStock days and we are not really sure how far back the original idea goes.
How it Works?
As I found this indicator and looking at it's code in different platform I can see it comes back from a basic idea of getting a price value, calculating it's smoothed average with a set multiplier and getting the difference then presenting it on a simplified scale. It appears to be another interpretation of figuring out price acceleration and velocity. The main logic is calculated as below:
price = priceSet(priceType)
_ma = getAverageName(price, MaMethod, MaPeriod)
rocma = ((_ma - _ma ) * 0.1) + 1
maMul = _ma * rocma
diff = price - maMul
gli_ind = (diff / price) * -10
How to Use?
Glitch Index can be used based on different implementations and along with your already existing trading system as a confirmation. Yoıu can use it as a Long signal when the histogram crosses inner levels or you can use it as an overbough and oversold signals when the histogram crosses above outter levels and gets back in the range between outter and inner levels.
You can customise the settings and set your prefered inner and outter levels in indicator settings along with gradient or static based coloring and modify the code as you see fit. The coloring code is set below:
gli_col = gli_ind > outterLevel ? color.green : gli_ind < -outterLevel ? color.red : gli_ind > innerLevel ? color.rgb(106, 185, 109, 57) : gli_ind < -innerLevel ? color.rgb(233, 111, 111, 40) : color.new(color.yellow, 60)
gradcol = color.from_gradient(gli_ind, -outterLevel, outterLevel, color.red, color.green)
colorSelect = colorType == "Gradient" ? gradcol : gli_col
Cosine smoothed stochasticDescription
The "Cosine Smoothed Stochastic" indicator leverages advanced Fourier Transform techniques to smooth the traditional Stochastic Oscillator. This approach enhances the signal's reliability and reduces noise, providing traders with a more refined and actionable indicator.
The Stochastic Oscillator is a popular momentum indicator that measures the current price relative to the high-low range over a specified period. It helps identify overbought and oversold conditions, signaling potential trend reversals. By smoothing this indicator with Fourier Transform techniques, we aim to reduce false signals and improve its effectiveness.
The indicator comprises three main components:
Cosine Function: A custom function to compute the cosine of an input scaled by a frequency tuner.
Kernel Function: Utilizes the cosine function to create a smooth kernel, constrained to positive values within a specific range.
Kernel Regression and Multi Cosine: Perform kernel regression over a lookback period, with the multi cosine function summing these regressions at varying frequencies for a composite smooth signal.
Additionally, the indicator includes a volume oscillator to complement the smoothed stochastic signals, providing insights into market volume trends.
Features
Fourier Transform Smoothing: Advanced smoothing technique to reduce noise.
Volume Oscillator: Dynamic volume-based oscillator for additional market insights.
Customizable Inputs: Users can configure key parameters like regression lookback period, tuning coefficient, and smoothing length.
Visual Alerts: Buy and sell signals based on smoothed stochastic crossovers.
Usage
The indicator is designed for trend-following and momentum-based trading strategies . It helps identify overbought and oversold conditions, trend reversals, and potential entry and exit points based on smoothed stochastic values and volume trends.
Inputs
Cosine Kernel Setup:
varient: Choose between "Tuneable" and "Stepped" regression types.
lookbackR: Lookback period for regression.
tuning: Tuning coefficient for frequency adjustment.
Stochastic Calculation:
volshow: Toggle to show the volume oscillator.
emalength: Smoothing period for the Stochastic Oscillator.
lookback_period, m1, m2: Parameters for the Stochastic Oscillator lookback and moving averages.
How It Works
Stochastic Oscillator:
Computes the stochastic %K and smoothes it with an EMA.
Further smoothes %K using the multi cosine function.
Volume Oscillator:
Calculates short and long EMAs of volume and derives the oscillator as the percentage difference.
Plots volume oscillator columns with dynamic coloring based on the oscillator's value and change.
Visual Representation:
Plots smoothed stochastic lines with colors indicating bullish, bearish, overbought, and oversold conditions.
Uses plotchar to mark crossovers between current and previous values of d.
Displays overbought and oversold levels with filled regions between them.
Chart Example
To understand the indicator better, refer to the clean and annotated chart provided. The script is used without additional scripts to maintain clarity. The chart includes:
Smoothed Stochastic Lines: Colored according to trend conditions.
Volume Oscillator: Plotted as columns for visual volume trend analysis.
Overbought/Oversold Levels: Clearly marked levels with filled regions between them.
Alert Conditions
The indicator sets up alerts for buy and sell signals when the smoothed stochastic crosses over or under its previous value. These alerts can be used for automated trading systems or manual trading signals.
breakthrough of the indicators method :
Initialization and Inputs:
The indicator starts by defining necessary inputs, such as the lookback period for regression, tuning coefficient, and smoothing parameters for the Stochastic Oscillator and volume oscillator.
Cosine Function and Kernel Creation:
The cosine function is defined to compute the cosine of an input scaled by a frequency tuner.
The kernel function utilizes this cosine function to create a smoothing kernel, which is constrained to positive values within a specific range.
Kernel Regression:
The kernel regression function iterates over the lookback period, calculating weighted sums of the source values using the kernel function. This produces a smoothed value by dividing the accumulated weighted values by the total weights.
Multi Cosine Smoothing:
The multi cosine function combines multiple kernel regressions at different frequencies, summing these results and averaging them to achieve a composite smoothed value.
Stochastic Calculation and Smoothing:
The traditional Stochastic Oscillator is calculated, and its %K value is smoothed using an EMA.
The smoothed %K is further refined using the multi cosine function, resulting in a more reliable and less noisy signal.
Volume Oscillator Calculation:
The volume oscillator calculates short and long EMAs of the volume and derives the oscillator as the percentage difference between these EMAs. The result is plotted with dynamic coloring to indicate volume trends.
Plotting and Alerts:
The indicator plots the smoothed stochastic lines , overbought/oversold levels, and volume oscillator on the chart.
Buy and sell alerts are set up based on crossovers of the smoothed stochastic values, providing traders with actionable signals.
HMA Crossover 1H with RSI, Stochastic RSI, and Trailing StopThe strategy script provided is a trading algorithm designed to help traders make informed buy and sell decisions based on certain technical indicators. Here’s a breakdown of what each part of the script does and how the strategy works:
Key Components:
Hull Moving Averages (HMA):
HMA 5: This is a Hull Moving Average calculated over 5 periods. HMAs are used to smooth out price data and identify trends more quickly than traditional moving averages.
HMA 20: This is another HMA but calculated over 20 periods, providing a broader view of the trend.
Relative Strength Index (RSI):
RSI 14: This is a momentum oscillator that measures the speed and change of price movements over a 14-period timeframe. It helps identify overbought or oversold conditions in the market.
Stochastic RSI:
%K: This is the main line of the Stochastic RSI, which combines the RSI and the Stochastic Oscillator to provide a more sensitive measure of overbought and oversold conditions. It is smoothed with a 3-period simple moving average.
Trading Signals:
Buy Signal:
Generated when the 5-period HMA crosses above the 20-period HMA, indicating a potential upward trend.
Additionally, the RSI must be below 45, suggesting that the market is not overbought.
The Stochastic RSI %K must also be below 39, confirming the oversold condition.
Sell Signal:
Generated when the 5-period HMA crosses below the 20-period HMA, indicating a potential downward trend.
The RSI must be above 60, suggesting that the market is not oversold.
The Stochastic RSI %K must also be above 63, confirming the overbought condition.
Trailing Stop Loss:
This feature helps protect profits by automatically selling the position if the price moves against the trade by 5%.
For sell positions, an additional trailing stop of 100 points is included.

KNN OscillatorOverview
The KNN Oscillator is an advanced technical analysis tool designed to help traders identify potential trend reversals and market momentum. Using the K-Nearest Neighbors (KNN) algorithm, this oscillator normalizes KNN values to create a dynamic and responsive indicator. The oscillator line changes color to reflect the market sentiment, providing clear visual cues for trading decisions.
Key Features
Dynamic Color Oscillator: The line changes color based on the oscillator value – green for positive, red for negative, and grey for neutral.
Advanced KNN Algorithm: Utilizes the K-Nearest Neighbors algorithm for precise trend detection.
Normalized Values: Ensures the oscillator values are normalized to align with the stock price range, making it applicable to various assets.
Easy Integration: Can be easily added to any TradingView chart for enhanced analysis.
How It Works
The KNN Oscillator leverages the K-Nearest Neighbors algorithm to calculate the average distance of the nearest neighbors over a specified period. These values are then normalized to match the stock price range, ensuring they are comparable across different assets. The oscillator value is derived by taking the difference between the normalized KNN values and the source price. The line's color changes dynamically to provide an immediate visual indication of the market's state:
Green: Positive values indicate upward momentum.
Red: Negative values indicate downward momentum.
Grey: Neutral values indicate a stable or consolidating market.
Usage Instructions
Trend Reversal Detection: Use the color changes to identify potential trend reversals. A shift from red to green suggests a bullish reversal, while a shift from green to red indicates a bearish reversal.
Momentum Analysis: The oscillator's value and color help gauge market momentum. Strong positive values (green) indicate strong upward momentum, while strong negative values (red) indicate strong downward momentum.
Market Sentiment: The dynamic color changes provide an easy-to-understand visual representation of market sentiment, helping traders make informed decisions quickly.
Confirmation Tool: Use the KNN Oscillator in conjunction with other technical indicators to confirm signals and improve the accuracy of your trades.
Scalability: Applicable to various timeframes and asset classes, making it a versatile tool for all types of traders.

Users can customize the ADX smoothing length, DI length, ADX smoothing period, and DI smoothing period through input variables.
Directional Movement (DM) Calculation:
The function dirmov calculates the positive and negative directional movements (DM) and the smoothed values of the positive directional index (DI+) and negative directional index (DI-).
This is done using the average true range (ATR) to normalize the DM values.
Average Directional Index (ADX) Calculation:
The function adx calculates the ADX, which measures the strength of a trend.
It uses the DI+ and DI- values to compute the ADX value.
Smoothed ADX and DI Calculation:
The ADX values are further smoothed using a simple moving average (SMA).
The DI difference is also smoothed and used to determine the trend direction.
Buy and Sell Signals:
A buy signal is generated when the DI+ crosses above DI- and the smoothed DI difference is increasing.
A sell signal is generated when the DI- crosses above DI+ and the smoothed DI difference is decreasing.
Plotting:
The ADX, smoothed ADX, smoothed DI difference (SPM), DI+, and DI- values are plotted on the chart.
Horizontal lines are drawn to indicate threshold levels (e.g., level 22).
Background and bar colors change based on buy (lime) and sell (maroon) signals to visually indicate these conditions.
Purpose of the Code:
This Pine Script code is used to create a custom indicator on TradingView that helps traders identify the strength and direction of a trend. The Average Directional Index (ADX) is used to measure trend strength, while the Directional Indicators (DI+ and DI-) are used to determine the direction of the trend. The smoothed versions of these indicators (SADX and SDI) provide additional confirmation and smoothing to reduce noise and false signals. Traders can use the buy and sell signals generated by this indicator to make informed trading decisions based on the trend strength and direction.

RSI Sector analysis
Screening tool that produces a table with the various sectors and their RSI values. The values are shown in 3 rows, each with a user-defined length, and can be averaged out and displayed as a single value. The chart is color coded as well. Each ETF representing a sector can be looked at individually, with the top holdings in each preprogrammed, but users can define their own if they wish. The left most ticker is the "benchmark"; SPY is the benchmark for the various sectors, and the ETF is the benchmark for the tickers within.
Symbols are color coded: light blue text indicates that a symbol has greater RSI values in all three timeframes than the benchmark (the leftmost symbol). Orange text indicates that a symbol has a lower RSI value for all three timeframes. In the first row, light blue text indicates the largest RSI increase from the third row to the first row. Orange text indicates the largest RSI decrease from the third row to the first row.
A blue highlight indicates that the value is the highest among the tickers, excluding the benchmark, and an orange highlight indicates that the value is the lowest among the tickers, also excluding the benchmark. A blue highlight on the ticker indicates that it has the highest average value of the 3 rows, and a orange highlight on the ticker indicates that it has the lowest average value of the 3 rows.

Directional Movement Index DEThis script uses the existing built-in DMI indicator but adds two lines indicating strength of the ADX trend. The original author J. Welles Wilder, indicated a ADX trending strongly above 25 (yellow by default), and ADX trending weaker at a threshold of 20 or below (dashed yellow by default).
The default colours have been changed so that ADX is yellow, +DI is green, and -DI is red.
Calculation
Calculating the DMI can actually be broken down into two parts. First, calculating the +DI and -DI, and second, calculating the ADX. To calculate the +DI and -DI you need to find the +DM and -DM (Directional Movement). +DM and -DM are calculated using the High, Low and Close for each period. You can then calculate the following:
Current High - Previous High = UpMove
Previous Low - Current Low = DownMove
If UpMove > DownMove and UpMove > 0, then +DM = UpMove, else +DM = 0
If DownMove > Upmove and Downmove > 0, then -DM = DownMove, else -DM = 0
Once you have the current +DM and -DM calculated, the +DM and -DM lines can be calculated and plotted based on the number of user defined periods.
+DI = 100 times Exponential Moving Average of (+DM / Average True Range)
-DI = 100 times Exponential Moving Average of (-DM / Average True Range)
Now that -+DX and -DX have been calculated, the last step is calculating the ADX.
ADX = 100 times the Exponential Moving Average of the Absolute Value of (+DI - -DI) / (+DI + -DI)
The basics
DMI has a value between 0 and 100 and is used to measure the strength of the current trend. +DI and -DI are then used to measure direction. When combined, the indicator can provide some valuable insight. A general interpretation would be that during a strong trend (ADX above 25 but dependent on the analyst's interpretation), when the +DI is above the -DI, then a Bullish Market is defined. When -DI is above +DI, then a Bearish Market is at hand.
One thing to be considered is that what DMI values determine, strength or a potential signal, is up to the trader's interpretation. Acceptable values may change depending on the financial instrument being examined, therefore some historical analysis of the instrument in question would be prudent. A technical analyst can make better decisions based on what has occurred in historical examples.

Chande Momentum Oscillator (CMO) Buy Sell Strategy [TradeDots]The "Chande Momentum Oscillator (CMO) Buy Sell Strategy" leverages the CMO indicator to identify short-term buy and sell opportunities.
HOW DOES IT WORK
The standard CMO indicator measures the difference between recent gains and losses, divided by the total price movement over the same period. However, this version of the CMO has some limitations.
The primary disadvantage of the original CMO is its responsiveness to short-term volatility, making the signals less smooth and more erratic, especially in fluctuating markets. This instability can lead to misleading buy or sell signals.
To address this, we integrated the concept from the Moving Average Convergence Divergence (MACD) indicator. By applying a 9-period exponential moving average (EMA) to the CMO line, we obtained a smoothed signal line. This line acts as a filter, identifying confirmed overbought or oversold states, thereby reducing the number of false signals.
Similar to the MACD histogram, we generate columns representing the difference between the CMO and its signal line, reflecting market momentum. We use this momentum indicator as a criterion for entry and exit points. Trades are executed when there's a convergence of CMO and signal lines during an oversold state, and they are closed when the CMO line diverges from the signal line, indicating increased selling pressure.
APPLICATION
Since the 9-period EMA smooths the CMO line, it's less susceptible to extreme price fluctuations. However, this smoothing also makes it more challenging to breach the original +50 and -50 benchmarks.
To increase trading opportunities, we've tightened the boundary ranges. Users can customize the target benchmark lines in the settings to adjust for the volatility of the underlying asset.
The 'cool down period' is essentially the number of bars that await before the next signal generation. This feature is employed to dodge the occurrence of multiple signals in a short period.

🌸 ------ 1️⃣ --- MAIN HIGHLIGHTS --- 1️⃣ ------ 🌸
- Signal aggregation : Combines signals from multiple different 📡 Signal Providers, each of which can be tuned and adjusted independently.
- Decaying function : Utilises advanced decaying functions to model the diminishing effect of signals over time, ensuring that recent signals have more weight. In addition to the decaying effect, the "quality" of the original signals (e.g. a "strong" GDM from WaveTrend 4D ) are accounted for as well.
- Flux confluence mechanism : The aggregation of all decaying functions form the "Flux", which is the core signal measurement of the Flux Composer. Multiple mechanisms are available for creating the Flux and effectively using it for actionable trading signals.
- Visualisation : Provides detailed visualisation options to help users understand and tune the contributions of individual Signal Providers and their decaying functions.
- Backtesting : The 🧬 Flux Composer is a core component of the TradingView suite of the 🌸 GoemonYae Trading System (GYTS) 🌸. It connects multiple 📡 Signal Providers, such as the WaveTrend 4D, and processes their signals to produce a unified "Flux". This Flux can then be used by the GYTS "🎼 Order Orchestrator" for backtesting and trade automation.
🌸 ------ 2️⃣ --- FLUX COMPOSER'S FEATURES --- 2️⃣ ------ 🌸
Let's delve into more details...
💮 1. Multi Signal Provider support
Using the name of the GYTS "🎼 Order Orchestrator" as an analogy: Imagine a symphony where each instrument plays its own unique part, contributing to the overall harmony. The Flux Composer operates similarly, integrating multiple Signal Providers to create a comprehensive and robust trading signal -- the "Flux". Currently, it supports up to four streams from the WaveTrend 4D's ’s Gradient Divergence Measure (GDM) and another four streams from the Quantile Median Cross (QMC). These can be either four "Professional Edition" Signal Providers or eight "Community Editions".
Note that the GDM includes 2 different continuous signals and the QMC 3 different continuous signals (from different frequencies). This means that the Community Edition can handle 2*2 + 2*3 = 10 different continuous signals and the Professional Edition as much as 20.
As GYTS evolves, more Signal Providers will be added; at the moment of releasing the Flux Composer, only WaveTrend 4D is publicly available.
💮 2. Advanced decaying functions
A trading signal can be relevant today, less relevant tomorrow, and irrelevant in a week's time. In other words, its relevance diminishes, or decays , over time. The Flux Composer utilises decaying functions that ensure that recent signals carry more weight, while older signals fade away. This is crucial for accurate signal processing. The intensity and decay settings allow for precise control, allowing emphasising certain signals based on their strength and relevance over time. On top of that, unlike binary signals ("buy now"), the Flux Composer utilises the actual values from the Signal Providers, differentiating between the exact quality of signals, and thus offering a detailed representation of the trading landscape. We will illustrate this in a further section.
💮 3. Customisable Flux confluence mechanisms
Another core component of the Flux Composer is the ability of intelligently combining the decaying functions. It offers four sophisticated confluence mechanisms: Amplitude Compression, Accentuated Amplitude Compression, Trigonometric, and GYTSynthesis. Each mechanism has its unique way of processing the Flux, tailored to different trading needs. For instance, the Amplitude Compression method scales the Flux based on recent values, much like the Stochastic Oscillator, while the Trigonometric method uses smooth functions to reduce outliers’ impact. The GYTSynthesis is a proprietary method, striking a balance between signal strength and discriminative power.
We'll discuss this in more detail in the User Guide section.
💮 4. Actionable trading experience
While the mathematical abilities might seem overwhelming, the goal of the Flux Composer is to transform complex signal data into actionable trading signals. When the Flux reaches certain thresholds, it generates clear bullish or bearish signals, making it easy for traders to interpret. The inclusion of upper and lower thresholds (UT and LT) helps in identifying strong signals visually and should be a familiar behaviour similar to how many other indicators operate. Furthermore, the Flux Composer can plot trading signals directly on the oscillator, showing triangle shapes for buy or sell signals. This visual aid is complemented by the possibility to setup TradingView alerts.
💮 5. Filtering options
The Professional Edition also offers filtering options to possibly further improve the quality of Flux signals. Signal streams can be divided into “Signal Flux” and “Filter Flux.” The Filter Flux acts as a gatekeeper, ensuring that only signals meeting the Filter's criteria (which consist of similar UT/LT thresholds) are considered for trading. This dual-layer approach enhances the reliability of trading signals, reducing the chances of false positives.
💮 6. User-friendly experience
GYTS is all about sophisticated, robust methods but also "elegance". One of the interpretations of the latter, is that the users' experience is very important. Despite the Flux Composer's mathematical underpinnings, it offers intuitive settings that with omprehensive tooltips to help with a smooth setup process. For those looking to fine-tune their signals, the Flux Composer allows the visualisation of individual decaying functions. This feature helps users understand the impact of each setting and make informed adjustments. Additionally, the background of the chart can be coloured to indicate the trading direction suggested by the Filter Flux, providing an at-a-glance overview of market conditions.
💮 7. Upgrades compared to Community Edition
Number of signal streams -- At the moment of writing, the Professional Edition works with 4x GDM and 4x QMC signal streams from WaveTrend 4D Signal Provider , while Community Edition (CE) Flux Composer (FC) only works with 2x GDM and 2x QMC signal streams.
Flux confluence mechanism -- CE includes the Amplitude Compression and Trigonometric confluence mechanisms, while the Pro Edition also includes the Accentuated Amplitude Compression and the GYTSynthesis mechanisms.
Signal streams as filters -- The Pro Edition can use Signal Providers as filters.
🌸 ------ 3️⃣ --- USER GUIDE --- 3️⃣ ------ 🌸
💮 1. Selecting Signal Providers
The Flux Composer’s foundation lies in its Signal Providers. When starting with the Flux Composer, using a single Signal Provider can already provide significant value due to the nature of decaying functions. For instance, the WaveTrend 4D signal provider includes up to 5 signal types (GDM and QMC in different frequencies) in a single direction (long/short). Moreover, the various confluence mechanisms that enhance the resulting Flux result in improved discrimination between weak and strong signals. This approach is akin to ensemble learning in machine learning, where multiple models are combined to improve predictive performance.
While using a single Signal Provider is beneficial, the true power of the Flux Composer is realised with multiple Signal Providers. Here are two general approaches to selecting Signal Providers:
Diverse Behaviours
Use Signal Providers with different behaviours, such as WaveTrend 4D on various assets/timeframes or entirely different Signal Providers. This approach leverages diversification to achieve robustness, rooted in the principle that varied sources enhance the overall signal quality. To explain this with an analogy, this strategy aligns with the theory of diversification in portfolio management, where combining uncorrelated assets reduces overall risk. Similarly, combining uncorrelated signals can mitigate the risk of signal failure. A practical example can be integrating a mean-reversion signal with a trend-following signal -- these can balance each other out, providing more stable outputs over different market conditions.
Enhancing a Single Provider
If you consider a particular Signal Provider highly effective, you could improve its robustness by using multiple instances with slight variations. These variations could include different sources (e.g., close, HL2, HLC3), data providers (same asset across different brokers/exchanges), or parameter adjustments. This method mirrors Monte Carlo simulations, often used in risk management and derivative pricing, which involve running many simulations with varied inputs to estimate the probability of different outcomes. By applying similar principles, the strategy becomes less susceptible to overfitting, ensuring the signals are not overly dependent on specific data conditions.
💮 2. Connecting Signal Providers to the Flux Composer
Moving on to practicalities: how do you connect Signal Providers with the Flux Composer? You may have noticed that when you open the drawdown of a data source in a TradingView indicator (with "open", "high", "low", etc.), you also see names from other indicators on your chart. We call these "streams", and the Signal Providers are designed such that they output this stream in a way that the Flux Composer can interpret it. Thus, to connect a Signal Provider with the Flux Composer, you should first have that Signal Provider on your chart. Obviously you should set it up an a way that it seems to provide good signals. After that, in the Data Stream dropdown in the Flux Composer, you can select the stream that is outputted by your Signal Provider. This will always be with a prefix of "🔗 STREAM" (after the Signal Provider's indicator name). See the chart below.
There is one important nuance: when you have multiple (similar) Signal Providers on your chart, it may be hard to select the correct data stream in the Flux Composer as the names of the streams keep repeating when you use identical indicators. So be sure to be attentive as you might end up using the same signals multiple times.
Also, the Signal Providers have an "Indicator name" parameter (and another parameter to repeat this name) that is handy to use when you have multiple Signal Providers on your screen. It is handy to give names that describe the unique settings of that Signal Provider so you can better differentiate what you are looking at on your screen.
💮 3. Understanding the Flux
Let's understand how the Signal Provider's signals are processed. In the chart below, you see we have one Signal Provider (WaveTrend 4D) connected to the Flux Composer and that it gives a bearish QMC signal. The Flux Composer converts this into a decaying function. You can show these functions per Signal Provider when the option "Show decaying function of Signal Provider" is enabled (as it is in the chart).
In our opinion, of crucial importance is the ability to process the quality of signals, rather than just any signal. In mathematical terms, we are interested in continuous signals as these provide a spectrum of values. These signals can reflect varying degrees of market sentiment or trend strength, offering richer information than binary signals, which offer only two states (e.g., buy/sell). Especially in the context of the Flux Composer, where you aggregate multiple signals, it makes a big difference whether you combine 10 weak signals or 10 strong signals. To illustrate this principle, look at the chart below where there are 4 signals of different strengths. As you can see, each of the signals affects the Flux with different intensities.
💮 4. Tuning the decaying functions
As previously mentioned, the decaying functions are a way to give more importance to recent signals while allowing older ones to fade away gradually. This mimics the natural way we assess information, giving more weight to recent events. The decaying functions in the Flux Composer are highly customisable while remaining easy to use. You can adjust the initial intensity , which sets the starting strength of a signal, and the decay rate, which determines how quickly this signal diminishes over time. Let's look at specific examples.
If we add 3 Flux Composers on the chart, connect the same Signal Provider, keep all settings the same with one exception, we get the chart below. Here we have changed the "intensity" parameter of the specific signal. As you can see, the decaying functions are different. The intensity determines the initial strength of the decayed function. Adjusting the intensity allows you to emphasise certain signal types based on their perceived reliability or importance.
Let's now keep the intensity the same ("normal"), but change the "decay" parameter. As you can see in the image below, the decay controls how quickly the signal’s strength diminishes over time. By adjusting the decay, you can model the longevity of the signal’s impact. A faster decay means the signal loses its influence quickly, while a slower decay means it remains relevant for a longer period.
So how do multiple signals interact? You can see this as a simple "stacking of decaying functions" (although there is more to it, see next section). In the chart below we different strenghts of signals and different decay rates to illustrate how the Flux is constructed.
Hopefully this helps with developing some intuition how signals are converted to decaying functions, how you can control them, and how the Flux is constructed. When tuning these parameters, use the visualisation options to see how individual decaying functions contribute to the overall Flux. This helps in understanding and refining the parameters to achieve the desired trading signal behaviour.
💮 5. Choosing Flux confluence mechanism
While we mentioned that the Flux is a "stacking of individual decaying functions", in the back-end, that is not exactly that simple. Like previously mentioned, for GYTS, "elegance" is very important. One of the interpretations is "user friendliness" and the Flux confluence mechanism is one of the essential developments for this characteristic. The Flux confluence mechanism is critical in synthesising the aggregated signals into the Flux. The choice of mechanism affects how the signals are combined and the resulting trading signals. The Professional Edition offers four distinct mechanisms, each with its strengths.
The Amplitude Compression mechanism is intuitive, scaling the Flux based on recent values, intuitively not unlike the method of the well-known Stochastic Oscillator. The Accentuated Amplitude Compression method takes this a step further, giving more weight to strong Flux values. The Trigonometric mechanism smooths the Flux and reduces the impact of outliers, providing a balanced approach. Finally, the GYTSynthesis mechanism, a proprietary approach, balances signal strength and discriminative power, making it easier to tune and generalise.
It's difficult to convey the workings of the Flux confluence mechanism in a chart, but let's take the opportunity to show how the Flux would look like when connecting both one WaveTrend 4D Signal Provider signals to four Flux Composers with default settings, except the Flux confluence mechanism:
You may notice subtle differences between the four methods. They react differently to different values and their overall shape is slightly be different. The Amplitude Compression is more "pointy" and GYTSynthesis doesn't react to low values. There are many nuances, especially in combination with tuning the sensitivity and upper/lower threshold (UT/LT) parameters.
💮 6. Choosing sensitivity
Speaking of the sensitivity , this parameters fine-tunes how responsive the Flux is to the input signals. Higher sensitivity results in more pronounced responses, leading to more frequent trading signals. Lower sensitivity makes the Flux less responsive, resulting in fewer but potentially more reliable signals.
You might think that changing the upper/lower threshold (UT/LT) parameters would be equivalent, but that's not the case. The sensitivity In case of the Amplitude Compression mechanisms, changing the sensitivity would change the relative Flux shape over time, and with the Trigonometric and GYTSynthesis mechanisms, the Flux shape itself (independent of time) would change. In other words, these are all good parameters for tuning.
💮 7. Utilising the filtering options
When choosing the signal stream of a Signal Provider, you can also change the default "Signal" category of that Signal Provider to a "Filter". In the example below, two Signal Providers are connected; the second is set as a filter. You can see that a second row of a Flux is shown in the Flux Composer (this visualisation can be disabled), corresponding with the signals of the second Signal Provider.
Logically, only when the Filter Flux gives a signal in a certain direction, signals from the regular Signal Flux are registered. Generally speaking, for this use case it is handy to set the thresholds for the Filter Flux low and possibly to decrease the decay rate so that the filtering is active for a long enough time.
💮 8. Interpreting the Flux for trading signals
Lastly, the Signal Flux gives buy and sell signals when it crosses the upper/lower thresholds (UT/LT), when the filter allows it (if enabled). This can be visualised with the triangles as you may have seen in the charts in the previous sections. For people using TradingView's alerts -- these would work too out of the box. And finally, for backtesting and possibly trade automation, we will have the GYTS "🎼 Order Orchestrator" that connects with the Flux Composer.

- Signal aggregation : Combines signals from multiple different 📡 Signal Providers, each of which can be tuned and adjusted independently.
- Decaying function : Utilises advanced decaying functions to model the diminishing effect of signals over time, ensuring that recent signals have more weight. In addition to the decaying effect, the "quality" of the original signals (e.g. a "strong" GDM from WaveTrend 4D with GDM ) are accounted for as well.
- Flux confluence mechanism : The aggregation of all decaying functions form the "Flux", which is the core signal measurement of the Flux Composer. Multiple mechanisms are available for creating the Flux and effectively using it for actionable trading signals.
- Visualisation : Provides detailed visualisation options to help users understand and tune the contributions of individual Signal Providers and their decaying functions.
- Backtesting : The 🧬 Flux Composer is a core component of the TradingView suite of the 🌸 GoemonYae Trading System (GYTS) 🌸. It connects multiple 📡 Signal Providers, such as the WaveTrend 4D, and processes their signals to produce a unified "Flux". This Flux can then be used by the GYTS "🎼 Order Orchestrator" for backtesting and trade automation.
🌸 ------ 2️⃣ --- FLUX COMPOSER'S FEATURES --- 2️⃣ ------ 🌸
Let's delve into more details...
💮 1. Multi Signal Provider support
Using the name of the GYTS "🎼 Order Orchestrator" as an analogy: Imagine a symphony where each instrument plays its own unique part, contributing to the overall harmony. The Flux Composer operates similarly, integrating multiple Signal Providers to create a comprehensive and robust trading signal -- the "Flux". Currently, it supports up to two streams from the WaveTrend 4D’s Gradient Divergence Measure (GDM) and another two streams from the WaveTrend 4D's Quantile Median Cross (QMC) .
Note that the GDM includes 2 different continuous signals and the QMC 3 different continuous signals (from different frequencies). This means that the Community Edition can handle 2*2 + 2*3 = 10 different continuous signals.
As GYTS evolves, more Signal Providers will be added; at the moment of releasing the Flux Composer, only WaveTrend 4D with GDM and with QMC are publicly available.
💮 2. Advanced decaying functions
A trading signal can be relevant today, less relevant tomorrow, and irrelevant in a week's time. In other words, its relevance diminishes, or decays , over time. The Flux Composer utilises decaying functions that ensure that recent signals carry more weight, while older signals fade away. This is crucial for accurate signal processing. The intensity and decay settings allow for precise control, allowing emphasising certain signals based on their strength and relevance over time. On top of that, unlike binary signals ("buy now"), the Flux Composer utilises the actual values from the Signal Providers, differentiating between the exact quality of signals, and thus offering a detailed representation of the trading landscape. We will illustrate this in a further section.
💮 3. Customisable Flux confluence mechanisms
Another core component of the Flux Composer is the ability of intelligently combining the decaying functions. It offers two sophisticated confluence mechanisms: Amplitude Compression and Trigonometric. Each mechanism has its unique way of processing the Flux, tailored to different trading needs. The Amplitude Compression method scales the Flux based on recent values, much like the Stochastic Oscillator, while the Trigonometric method uses smooth functions to reduce outliers’ impact We'll discuss this in more detail in the User Guide section.
💮 4. Actionable trading experience
While the mathematical abilities might seem overwhelming, the goal of the Flux Composer is to transform complex signal data into actionable trading signals. When the Flux reaches certain thresholds, it generates clear bullish or bearish signals, making it easy for traders to interpret. The inclusion of upper and lower thresholds (UT and LT) helps in identifying strong signals visually and should be a familiar behaviour similar to how many other indicators operate. Furthermore, the Flux Composer can plot trading signals directly on the oscillator, showing triangle shapes for buy or sell signals. This visual aid is complemented by the possibility to setup TradingView alerts.
💮 5. User-friendly experience
GYTS is all about sophisticated, robust methods but also "elegance". One of the interpretations of the latter, is that the users' experience is very important. Despite the Flux Composer's mathematical underpinnings, it offers intuitive settings that with omprehensive tooltips to help with a smooth setup process. For those looking to fine-tune their signals, the Flux Composer allows the visualisation of individual decaying functions. This feature helps users understand the impact of each setting and make informed adjustments.
🌸 ------ 3️⃣ --- USER GUIDE --- 3️⃣ ------ 🌸
💮 1. Selecting Signal Providers
The Flux Composer’s foundation lies in its Signal Providers. When starting with the Flux Composer, using a single Signal Provider can already provide significant value due to the nature of decaying functions. For instance, the WaveTrend 4D signal provider includes up to two GDM and three QMC signals in a single direction (long/short). Moreover, the various confluence mechanisms that enhance the resulting Flux result in improved discrimination between weak and strong signals. This approach is akin to ensemble learning in machine learning, where multiple models are combined to improve predictive performance.
While using a single Signal Provider is beneficial, the true power of the Flux Composer is realised with multiple Signal Providers. Here are two general approaches to selecting Signal Providers:
Diverse Behaviours
Use Signal Providers with different behaviours, such as WaveTrend 4D on various assets/timeframes or entirely different Signal Providers. This approach leverages diversification to achieve robustness, rooted in the principle that varied sources enhance the overall signal quality. To explain this with an analogy, this strategy aligns with the theory of diversification in portfolio management, where combining uncorrelated assets reduces overall risk. Similarly, combining uncorrelated signals can mitigate the risk of signal failure. A practical example can be integrating a mean-reversion signal with a trend-following signal -- these can balance each other out, providing more stable outputs over different market conditions.
Enhancing a Single Provider
If you consider a particular Signal Provider highly effective, you could improve its robustness by using multiple instances with slight variations. These variations could include different sources (e.g., close, HL2, HLC3), data providers (same asset across different brokers/exchanges), or parameter adjustments. This method mirrors Monte Carlo simulations, often used in risk management and derivative pricing, which involve running many simulations with varied inputs to estimate the probability of different outcomes. By applying similar principles, the strategy becomes less susceptible to overfitting, ensuring the signals are not overly dependent on specific data conditions.
💮 2. Connecting Signal Providers to the Flux Composer
Moving on to practicalities: how do you connect Signal Providers with the Flux Composer? You may have noticed that when you open the drawdown of a data source in a TradingView indicator (with "open", "high", "low", etc.), you also see names from other indicators on your chart. We call these "streams", and the Signal Providers are designed such that they output this stream in a way that the Flux Composer can interpret it. Thus, to connect a Signal Provider with the Flux Composer, you should first have that Signal Provider on your chart. Obviously you should set it up an a way that it seems to provide good signals. After that, in the Data Stream dropdown in the Flux Composer, you can select the stream that is outputted by your Signal Provider. This will always be with a prefix of "🔗 STREAM" (after the Signal Provider's indicator name). See the chart below.
There is one important nuance: when you have multiple (similar) Signal Providers on your chart, it may be hard to select the correct data stream in the Flux Composer as the names of the streams keep repeating when you use identical indicators. So be sure to be attentive as you might end up using the same signals multiple times.
Also, the Signal Providers have an "Indicator name" parameter (and another parameter to repeat this name) that is handy to use when you have multiple Signal Providers on your screen. It is handy to give names that describe the unique settings of that Signal Provider so you can better differentiate what you are looking at on your screen.
💮 3. Understanding the Flux
Let's understand how the Signal Provider's signals are processed. In the chart below, you see we have one Signal Provider (WaveTrend 4D) connected to the Flux Composer and that it gives a bearish QMC signal. The Flux Composer converts this into a decaying function. You can show these functions per Signal Provider when the option "Show decaying function of Signal Provider" is enabled (as it is in the chart).
In our opinion, of crucial importance is the ability to process the quality of signals, rather than just any signal. In mathematical terms, we are interested in continuous signals as these provide a spectrum of values. These signals can reflect varying degrees of market sentiment or trend strength, offering richer information than binary signals, which offer only two states (e.g., buy/sell). Especially in the context of the Flux Composer, where you aggregate multiple signals, it makes a big difference whether you combine 10 weak signals or 10 strong signals. To illustrate this principle, look at the chart below where there are 4 signals of different strengths. As you can see, each of the signals affects the Flux with different intensities.
💮 4. Tuning the decaying functions
As previously mentioned, the decaying functions are a way to give more importance to recent signals while allowing older ones to fade away gradually. This mimics the natural way we assess information, giving more weight to recent events. The decaying functions in the Flux Composer are highly customisable while remaining easy to use. You can adjust the initial intensity , which sets the starting strength of a signal, and the decay rate, which determines how quickly this signal diminishes over time. Let's look at specific examples.
If we add 3 Flux Composers on the chart, connect the same Signal Provider, keep all settings the same with one exception, we get the chart below. Here we have changed the "intensity" parameter of the specific signal. As you can see, the decaying functions are different. The intensity determines the initial strength of the decayed function. Adjusting the intensity allows you to emphasise certain signal types based on their perceived reliability or importance.
Let's now keep the intensity the same ("normal"), but change the "decay" parameter. As you can see in the image below, the decay controls how quickly the signal’s strength diminishes over time. By adjusting the decay, you can model the longevity of the signal’s impact. A faster decay means the signal loses its influence quickly, while a slower decay means it remains relevant for a longer period.
So how do multiple signals interact? You can see this as a simple "stacking of decaying functions" (although there is more to it, see next section). In the chart below we use different "intensity" and "decay" parameters to discuss how the Flux is created.
Hopefully this helps with developing some intuition how signals are converted to decaying functions, how you can control them, and how the Flux is constructed. When tuning these parameters, use the visualisation options to see how individual decaying functions contribute to the overall Flux. This helps in understanding and refining the parameters to achieve the desired trading signal behaviour.
💮 5. Choosing Flux confluence mechanism
While we mentioned that the Flux is a "stacking of individual decaying functions", in the back-end, that is not exactly that simple. Like previously mentioned, for GYTS, "elegance" is very important. One of the interpretations is "user friendliness" and the Flux confluence mechanism is one of the essential developments for this characteristic. The Flux confluence mechanism is critical in synthesising the aggregated signals into the Flux. The choice of mechanism affects how the signals are combined and the resulting trading signals. The Community Edition offers two distinct mechanisms, each with its strengths.
The Amplitude Compression mechanism is intuitive, scaling the Flux based on recent values, intuitively not unlike the method of the well-known Stochastic Oscillator. On the other hand, the Trigonometric mechanism smooths the Flux and reduces the impact of outliers, providing a balanced approach. It's difficult to convey the workings of the Flux confluence mechanism in a chart, but let's take the opportunity to show how the Flux would look like when connecting both GDM and QMC signals to two Flux Composers with default settings, except the Flux confluence mechanism:
You can notice that the upper Flux Converter (FC) triggered two signals while the other FC triggered only one. There are more nuances, especially in combination with tuning the sensitivity and upper/lower threshold (UT/LT) parameters.
💮 6. Choosing sensitivity
Speaking of the sensitivity , this parameters fine-tunes how responsive the Flux is to the input signals. Higher sensitivity results in more pronounced responses, leading to more frequent trading signals. Lower sensitivity makes the Flux less responsive, resulting in fewer but potentially more reliable signals.
You might think that changing the upper/lower threshold (UT/LT) parameters would be equivalent, but that's not the case. The sensitivity In case of the Amplitude Compression mechanism, changing the sensitivity would change the relative Flux shape over time, and with the Trigonometric mechanism, the Flux shape itself (independent of time) would change. In other words, these are all good parameters for tuning.
💮 8. Interpreting the Flux for trading signals
Lastly, the Signal Flux gives buy and sell signals when it crosses the upper/lower thresholds (UT/LT) This can be visualised with the triangles as you may have seen in the charts in the previous sections. For people using TradingView's alerts -- these would work out of the box. And finally, for backtesting and possibly trade automation, we will have the GYTS "🎼 Order Orchestrator" that connects with the Flux Composer.

Fusion MFI RSIHello fellas,
This superb indicator summons two monsters called Relative Strength Index (RSI) and Money Flow Index (MFI) and plays the Yu-Gi-Oh! card "Polymerization" to combine them.
Overview
The Fusion MFI RSI Indicator is an advanced analytical tool designed to provide a nuanced understanding of market dynamics by combining the Relative Strength Index (RSI) and the Money Flow Index (MFI). Enhanced with sophisticated smoothing techniques and the Inverse Fisher Transform (IFT), this indicator excels in identifying key market conditions such as overbought and oversold states, trends, and potential reversal points.
Key Features (Brief Overview)
Fusion of RSI and MFI: Integrates momentum and volume for a comprehensive market analysis.
Advanced Smoothing Techniques: Employs Hann Window, Jurik Moving Average (JMA), T3 Smoothing, and Super Smoother to refine signals.
Inverse Fisher Transform (IFT) Enhances the clarity and distinctiveness of indicator outputs.
Detailed Feature Analysis
Fusion of RSI and MFI
RSI (Relative Strength Index): Developed by J. Welles Wilder Jr., the RSI measures the speed and magnitude of directional price movements. Wilder recommended using a 14-day period and identified overbought conditions above 70 and oversold conditions below 30.
MFI (Money Flow Index): Created by Gene Quong and Avrum Soudack, the MFI combines price and volume to measure trading pressure. It is typically calculated using a 14-day period, with over 80 considered overbought and under 20 as oversold.
Application in Fusion: By combining RSI and MFI, the indicator leverages RSI's sensitivity to price changes with MFI's volume-weighted confirmation, providing a robust analysis tool. This combination is particularly effective in confirming the strength behind price movements, making the signals more reliable.
Advanced Smoothing Techniques
Hann Window: Traditionally used to reduce the abrupt data discontinuities at the edges of a sample, it is applied here to smooth the price data.
Jurik Moving Average (JMA): Known for preserving the timing and smoothness of the data, JMA reduces market noise effectively without significant lag.
T3 Smoothing: Developed to respond quickly to market changes, T3 provides a smoother response to price fluctuations.
Super Smoother: Filters out high-frequency noise while retaining important trends.
Application in Fusion: These techniques are chosen to refine the output of the combined RSI and MFI values, ensuring the indicator remains responsive yet stable, providing clearer and more actionable signals.
Inverse Fisher Transform (IFT):
Developed by John Ehlers, the IFT transforms oscillator outputs to enhance the clarity of extreme values. This is particularly useful in this fusion indicator to make critical turning points more distinct and actionable.
Mathematical Calculations for the Fusion MFI RSI Indicator
RSI (Relative Strength Index)
The RSI is calculated using the following steps:
Average Gain and Average Loss: First, determine the average gain and average loss over the specified period (typically 14 days). This is done by summing all the gains and losses over the period and then dividing each by the period.
Average Gain = (Sum of Gains over the past 14 periods) / 14
Average Loss = (Sum of Losses over the past 14 periods) / 14
Relative Strength (RS): This is the ratio of average gain to average loss.
RS = Average Gain / Average Loss
RSI: Finally, the RSI is calculated using the RS value:
RSI = 100 - (100 / (1 + RS))
MFI (Money Flow Index)
The MFI is calculated using several steps that incorporate both price and volume:
Typical Price: Calculate the typical price for each period.
Typical Price = (High + Low + Close) / 3
Raw Money Flow: Multiply the typical price by the volume for the period.
Raw Money Flow = Typical Price * Volume
Positive and Negative Money Flow: Compare the typical price of the current period to the previous period to determine if the money flow is positive or negative.
If today's Typical Price > Yesterday's Typical Price, then Positive Money Flow = Raw Money Flow; Negative Money Flow = 0
If today's Typical Price < Yesterday's Typical Price, then Negative Money Flow = Raw Money Flow; Positive Money Flow = 0
Money Flow Ratio: Calculate the ratio of the sum of Positive Money Flows to the sum of Negative Money Flows over the past 14 periods.
Money Flow Ratio = (Sum of Positive Money Flows over 14 periods) / (Sum of Negative Money Flows over 14 periods)
MFI: Finally, calculate the MFI using the Money Flow Ratio.
MFI = 100 - (100 / (1 + Money Flow Ratio))
Fusion of RSI and MFI
The final Fusion MFI RSI value could be calculated by averaging the IFT-transformed values of RSI and MFI, providing a single oscillator value that reflects both momentum and volume-weighted price action:
Fusion MFI RSI = (MFI weight * MFI) + (RSI weight * RSI)
Suggested Settings and Trading Rules
Original Usage
RSI: Wilder suggested buying when the RSI moves above 30 from below (enter long) and selling when the RSI moves below 70 from above (enter short). He recommended exiting long positions when the RSI reaches 70 or higher and exiting short positions when the RSI falls below 30.
MFI: Quong and Soudack recommended buying when the MFI is below 20 and starts rising (enter long), and selling when it is above 80 and starts declining (enter short). They suggested exiting long positions when the MFI reaches 80 or higher and exiting short positions when the MFI falls below 20.
Fusion Application
Settings: Use a 14-day period for this indicator's calculations to maintain consistency with the original settings suggested by the inventors.
Trading Rules:
Enter Long Signal: Consider entering a long position when both RSI and MFI are below their respective oversold levels and begin to rise. This indicates strong buying pressure supported by both price momentum and volume.
Exit Long Signal: Exit the long position when either RSI or MFI reaches its respective overbought threshold, suggesting a potential reversal or decrease in buying pressure.
Enter Short Signal: Consider entering a short position when both indicators are above their respective overbought levels and begin to decline, suggesting that selling pressure is mounting.
Exit Short Signal: Exit the short position when either RSI or MFI falls below its respective oversold threshold, indicating diminishing selling pressure and a potential upward reversal.
