▋ OVERVIEW:
● Scenario (The chart above can be taken as an example) :
Let say, in 2010, a newly employed individual committed to saving $1,000 each month. Rather than relying on a traditional savings account, chose to invest the majority of monthly savings in stable well-established stocks. Allocating 30% of monthly saving to AMEX:SPY and another 30% to NASDAQ:QQQ , recognizing these as reliable options for steady growth. Additionally, there was an admired toward innovative business models of NASDAQ:AAPL , NASDAQ:MSFT , NASDAQ:AMZN , and NASDAQ:EBAY , leading to invest 10% in each of those companies. By the end of 2024, after 15 years, the total monthly deposits amounted to $179,000, which would have been the result of traditional saving alone. However, by sticking into long term invest, the value of the portfolio assets grew, reaching nearly $900,000.
_______________________
▋ OUTPUTS:

Quantify [Entry Model] | FractalystWhat’s the indicator’s purpose and functionality?
Quantify is a machine learning entry model designed to help traders identify high-probability setups to refine their strategies.
➙ Simply pick your bias, select your entry timeframes, and let Quantify handle the rest for you.
Can the indicator be applied to any market approach/trading strategy?
Absolutely, all trading strategies share one fundamental element: Directional Bias
Once you’ve determined the market bias using your own personal approach, whether it’s through technical analysis or fundamental analysis, select the trend direction in the Quantify user inputs.
The algorithm will then adjust its calculations to provide optimal entry levels aligned with your chosen bias. This involves analyzing historical patterns to identify setups with the highest potential expected values, ensuring your setups are aligned with the selected direction.
Can the indicator be used for different timeframes or trading styles?
Yes, regardless of the timeframe you’d like to take your entries, the indicator adapts to your trading style.
Whether you’re a swing trader, scalper, or even a position trader, the algorithm dynamically evaluates market conditions across your chosen timeframe.
How can this indicator help me to refine my trading strategy?
1. Focus on Positive Expected Value
• The indicator evaluates every setup to ensure it has a positive expected value, helping you focus only on trades that statistically favor long-term profitability.
2. Adapt to Market Conditions
• By analyzing real-time market behavior and historical patterns, the algorithm adjusts its calculations to match current conditions, keeping your strategy relevant and adaptable.
3. Eliminate Emotional Bias
• With clear probabilities, expected values, and data-driven insights, the indicator removes guesswork and helps you avoid emotional decisions that can damage your edge.
4. Optimize Entry Levels
• The indicator identifies optimal entry levels based on your selected bias and timeframes, improving robustness in your trades.
5. Enhance Risk Management
• Using tools like the Kelly Criterion, the indicator suggests optimal position sizes and risk levels, ensuring that your strategy maintains consistency and discipline.
6. Avoid Overtrading
• By highlighting only high-potential setups, the indicator keeps you focused on quality over quantity, helping you refine your strategy and avoid unnecessary losses.
How can I get started to use the indicator for my entries?
1. Set Your Market Bias
• Determine whether the market trend is Bullish or Bearish using your own approach.
• Select the corresponding bias in the indicator’s user inputs to align it with your analysis.
2. Choose Your Entry Timeframes
• Specify the timeframes you want to focus on for trade entries.
• The indicator will dynamically analyze these timeframes to provide optimal setups.
3. Let the Algorithm Analyze
• Quantify evaluates historical data and real-time price action to calculate probabilities and expected values.
• It highlights setups with the highest potential based on your selected bias and timeframes.
4. Refine Your Entries

• Avoid overtrading by focusing only on setups with positive expected value.
5. Adapt to Market Conditions
• The indicator continuously adapts to real-time market behavior, ensuring its recommendations stay relevant and precise as conditions change.
How does the indicator calculate the current range?
The indicator calculates the current range by analyzing swing points from the very first bar on your charts to the latest available bar it identifies external liquidity levels, also known as BSLQ (buy-side liquidity levels) and SSLQ (sell-side liquidity levels).
What's the purpose of these levels? What are the underlying calculations?
1. Understanding Swing highs and Swing Lows
Swing High: A Swing High is formed when there is a high with 2 lower highs to the left and right.
Swing Low: A Swing Low is formed when there is a low with 2 higher lows to the left and right.
2. Understanding the purpose and the underlying calculations behind Buyside, Sellside and Pivot levels.
3. Identifying Discount and Premium Zones.
4. Importance of Risk-Reward in Premium and Discount Ranges
How does the script calculate probabilities?
The script calculates the probability of each liquidity level individually. Here's the breakdown:
1. Upon the formation of a new range, the script waits for the price to reach and tap into pivot level level. Status: "■" - Inactive
2. Once pivot level is tapped into, the pivot status becomes activated and it waits for either liquidity side to be hit. Status: "▶" - Active
3. If the buyside liquidity is hit, the script adds to the count of successful buyside liquidity occurrences. Similarly, if the sellside is tapped, it records successful sellside liquidity occurrences.
4. Finally, the number of successful occurrences for each side is divided by the overall count individually to calculate the range probabilities.
Note: The calculations are performed independently for each directional range. A range is considered bearish if the previous breakout was through a sellside liquidity. Conversely, a range is considered bullish if the most recent breakout was through a buyside liquidity.
What does the multi-timeframe functionality offer?
You can incorporate up to 4 higher timeframe probabilities directly into the table.
This feature allows you to analyze the probabilities of buyside and sellside liquidity across multiple timeframes, without the need to manually switch between them.
By viewing these higher timeframe probabilities in one place, traders can spot larger market trends and refine their entries and exits with a better understanding of the overall market context.
What are the multi-timeframe underlying calculations?
The script uses the same calculations (mentioned above) and uses security function to request the data such as price levels, bar time, probabilities and booleans from the user-input timeframe.
How does the Indicator Identifies Positive Expected Values?
Quantify instantly calculates whether a trade setup has the potential to generate positive expected value (EV).
To determine a positive EV setup, the indicator uses the formula:
EV = ( P(Win) × R(Win) ) − ( P(Loss) × R(Loss))
where:
- P(Win) is the probability of a winning trade.
- R(Win) is the reward or return for a winning trade, determined by the current risk-to-reward ratio (RR).
- P(Loss) is the probability of a losing trade.
- R(Loss) is the loss incurred per losing trade, typically assumed to be -1.
By calculating these values based on historical data and the current trading setup, the indicator helps you understand whether your trade has a positive expected value.
How can I know that the setup I'm going to trade with has a positive EV?
If the indicator detects that the adjusted pivot and buy/sell side probabilities have generated positive expected value (EV) in historical data, the risk-to-reward (RR) label within the range box will be colored blue and red .
If the setup does not produce positive EV, the RR label will appear gray.
This indicates that even the risk-to-reward ratio is greater than 1:1, the setup is not likely to yield a positive EV because, according to historical data, the number of losses outweighs the number of wins relative to the RR gain per winning trade.
What is the confidence level in the indicator, and how is it determined?
The confidence level in the indicator reflects the reliability of the probabilities calculated based on historical data. It is determined by the sample size of the probabilities used in the calculations. A larger sample size generally increases the confidence level, indicating that the probabilities are more reliable and consistent with past performance.
How does the confidence level affect the risk-to-reward (RR) label?
The confidence level (★) is visually represented alongside the probability label. A higher confidence level indicates that the probabilities used to determine the RR label are based on a larger and more reliable sample size.
How can traders use the confidence level to make better trading decisions?
Traders can use the confidence level to gauge the reliability of the probabilities and expected value (EV) calculations provided by the indicator. A confidence level above 95% is considered statistically significant and indicates that the historical data supporting the probabilities is robust. This high confidence level suggests that the probabilities are reliable and that the indicator’s recommendations are more likely to be accurate.
In data science and statistics, a confidence level above 95% generally means that there is less than a 5% chance that the observed results are due to random variation. This threshold is widely accepted in research and industry as a marker of statistical significance. Studies such as those published in the Journal of Statistical Software and the American Statistical Association support this threshold, emphasizing that a confidence level above 95% provides a strong assurance of data reliability and validity.
Conversely, a confidence level below 95% indicates that the sample size may be insufficient and that the data might be less reliable. In such cases, traders should approach the indicator’s recommendations with caution and consider additional factors or further analysis before making trading decisions.
How does the sample size affect the confidence level, and how does it relate to my TradingView plan?
The sample size for calculating the confidence level is directly influenced by the amount of historical data available on your charts. A larger sample size typically leads to more reliable probabilities and higher confidence levels.
Here’s how the TradingView plans affect your data access:
Essential Plan
The Essential Plan provides basic data access with a limited amount of historical data. This can lead to smaller sample sizes and lower confidence levels, which may weaken the robustness of your probability calculations. Suitable for casual traders who do not require extensive historical analysis.
Plus Plan
The Plus Plan offers more historical data than the Essential Plan, allowing for larger sample sizes and more accurate confidence levels. This enhancement improves the reliability of indicator calculations. This plan is ideal for more active traders looking to refine their strategies with better data.
Premium Plan
The Premium Plan grants access to extensive historical data, enabling the largest sample sizes and the highest confidence levels. This plan provides the most reliable data for accurate calculations, with up to 20,000 historical bars available for analysis. It is designed for serious traders who need comprehensive data for in-depth market analysis.
PRO+ Plans
The PRO+ Plans offer the most extensive historical data, allowing for the largest sample sizes and the highest confidence levels. These plans are tailored for professional traders who require advanced features and significant historical data to support their trading strategies effectively.
For many traders, the Premium Plan offers a good balance of affordability and sufficient sample size for accurate confidence levels.
What is the HTF probability table and how does it work?
The HTF (Higher Time Frame) probability table is a feature that allows you to view buy and sellside probabilities and their status from timeframes higher than your current chart timeframe.
Here’s how it works:
Data Request: The table requests and retrieves data from user-defined higher timeframes (HTFs) that you select.
Probability Display: It displays the buy and sellside probabilities for each of these HTFs, providing insights into the likelihood of price movements based on higher timeframe data.
Detailed Tooltips: The table includes detailed tooltips for each timeframe, offering additional context and explanations to help you understand the data better.
What do the different colors in the HTF probability table indicate?
The colors in the HTF probability table provide visual cues about the expected value (EV) of trading setups based on higher timeframe probabilities:
Blue: Suggests that entering a long position from the HTF user-defined pivot point, targeting buyside liquidity, is likely to result in a positive expected value (EV) based on historical data and sample size.
Red: Indicates that entering a short position from the HTF user-defined pivot point, targeting sellside liquidity, is likely to result in a positive expected value (EV) based on historical data and sample size.
Gray: Shows that neither long nor short trades from the HTF user-defined pivot point are expected to generate positive EV, suggesting that trading these setups may not be favorable.
What machine learning techniques are used in Quantify?
Quantify offers two main machine learning approaches:
1. Adaptive Learning (Fixed Sample Size): The algorithm learns from the entire dataset without resampling, maintaining a stable model that adapts to the latest market conditions.
2. Bootstrap Resampling: This method creates multiple subsets of the historical data, allowing the model to train on varying sample sizes. This technique enhances the robustness of predictions by ensuring that the model is not overfitting to a single dataset.
How does machine learning affect the expected value calculations in Quantify?
Machine learning plays a key role in improving the accuracy of expected value (EV) calculations. By analyzing historical price action, liquidity hits, and market bias patterns, the model continuously adjusts its understanding of risk and reward, allowing the expected value to reflect the most likely market movements. This results in more precise EV predictions, helping traders focus on setups that maximize profitability.
What is the Kelly Criterion, and how does it work in Quantify?
The Kelly Criterion is a mathematical formula used to determine the optimal position size for each trade, maximizing long-term growth while minimizing the risk of large drawdowns. It calculates the percentage of your portfolio to risk on a trade based on the probability of winning and the expected payoff.
Quantify integrates this with user-defined inputs to dynamically calculate the most effective position size in percentage, aligning with the trader’s risk tolerance and desired exposure.
How does Quantify use the Kelly Criterion in practice?
Quantify uses the Kelly Criterion to optimize position sizing based on the following factors:
1. Confidence Level: The model assesses the confidence level in the trade setup based on historical data and sample size. A higher confidence level increases the suggested position size because the trade has a higher probability of success.
2. Max Allowed Drawdown (User-Defined): Traders can set their preferred maximum allowed drawdown, which dictates how much loss is acceptable before reducing position size or stopping trading. Quantify uses this input to ensure that risk exposure aligns with the trader’s risk tolerance.
3. Probabilities: Quantify calculates the probabilities of success for each trade setup. The higher the probability of a successful trade (based on historical price action and liquidity levels), the larger the position size suggested by the Kelly Criterion.
What is a trailing stoploss, and how does it work in Quantify?
A trailing stoploss is a dynamic risk management tool that moves with the price as the market trend continues in the trader’s favor. Unlike a fixed take profit, which stays at a set level, the trailing stoploss automatically adjusts itself as the market moves, locking in profits as the price advances.
In Quantify, the trailing stoploss is enhanced by incorporating market structure liquidity levels (explain above). This ensures that the stoploss adjusts intelligently based on key price levels, allowing the trader to stay in the trade as long as the trend remains intact, while also protecting profits if the market reverses.
Why would a trader prefer a trailing stoploss based on liquidity levels instead of a fixed take-profit level?
Traders who use trailing stoplosses based on liquidity levels prefer this method because:
1. Market-Driven Flexibility: The stoploss follows the market structure rather than being static at a pre-defined level. This means the stoploss is less likely to be hit by small market fluctuations or false reversals. The stoploss remains adaptive, moving as the market moves.
2. Riding the Trend: Traders can capture more profit during a sustained trend because the trailing stop will adjust only when the trend starts to reverse significantly, based on key liquidity levels. This allows them to hold positions longer without prematurely locking in profits.
3. Avoiding Premature Exits: Fixed stoploss levels may exit a trade too early in volatile markets, while liquidity-based trailing stoploss levels respect the natural flow of price action, preventing the trader from exiting too soon during pullbacks or minor retracements.
🎲 Becoming the House: Gaining an Edge Over the Market
In American roulette, the casino has a 5.26% edge due to the presence of the 0 and 00 pockets. On even-money bets, players face a 47.37% chance of winning, while true 50/50 odds would require a 50% chance. This edge—the gap between the payout odds and the true probabilities—ensures that, statistically, the casino will always win over time, even if individual players win occasionally.
From a Trader’s Perspective
In trading, your edge comes from identifying and executing setups with a positive expected value (EV). For example:
• If you identify a setup with a 55.48% chance of winning and a 1:1 risk-to-reward (RR) ratio, your trade has a statistical advantage over a neutral (50/50) probability.
This edge works in your favor when applied consistently across a series of trades, just as the casino’s edge ensures profitability across thousands of spins.
🎰 Applying the Concept to Trading
Like casinos leverage their mathematical edge in games of chance, you can achieve long-term success in trading by focusing on setups with positive EV and managing your trades systematically. Here’s how:
1. Probability Advantage: Prioritize trades where the probability of success (win rate) exceeds the breakeven rate for your chosen risk-to-reward ratio.
• Example: With a 1:1 RR, you need a win rate above 50% to achieve positive EV.
2. Risk-to-Reward Ratio (RR): Even with a win rate below 50%, you can gain an edge by increasing your RR (e.g., a 40% win rate with a 2:1 RR still has positive EV).
3. Consistency and Discipline: Just as casinos profit by sticking to their mathematical advantage over thousands of spins, traders must rely on their edge across many trades, avoiding emotional decisions or overleveraging.
By targeting favorable probabilities and managing trades effectively, you “become the house” in your trading. This approach allows you to leverage statistical advantages to enhance your overall performance and achieve sustainable profitability.
What Makes the Quantify Indicator Original?
1. Data-Driven Edge
Unlike traditional indicators that rely on static formulas, Quantify leverages probability-based analysis and machine learning. It calculates expected value (EV) and confidence levels to help traders identify setups with a true statistical edge.
2. Integration of Market Structure
Quantify uses market structure liquidity levels to dynamically adapt. It identifies key zones like swing highs/lows and liquidity traps, enabling users to align entries and exits with where the market is most likely to react. This bridges the gap between price action analysis and quantitative trading.
3. Sophisticated Risk Management
The Kelly Criterion implementation is unique. Quantify allows traders to input their maximum allowed drawdown, dynamically adjusting risk exposure to maintain optimal position sizing. This ensures risk is scientifically controlled while maximizing potential growth.
4. Multi-Timeframe and Liquidity-Based Trailing Stops
The indicator doesn’t just suggest fixed profit-taking levels. It offers market structure-based trailing stop-loss functionality, letting traders ride trends as long as liquidity and probabilities favor the position, which is rare in most tools.
5. Customizable Bias and Adaptive Learning
• Directional Bias: Traders can set a bullish or bearish bias, and the indicator recalculates probabilities to align with the trader’s market outlook.
• Adaptive Learning: The machine learning model adapts to changes in data (via resampling or bootstrap methods), ensuring that predictions stay relevant in evolving markets.
6. Positive EV Focus
The focus on positive EV setups differentiates it from reactive indicators. It shifts trading from chasing signals to acting on setups that statistically favor profitability, akin to how professional quant funds operate.
7. User Empowerment
Through features like customizable timeframes, real-time probability updates, and visualization tools, Quantify empowers users to make data-informed decisions.

Built on the Digital Time Theory (DTT), this script provides traders with a structured view of time and price interactions, ideal for swing insights. It divides the weekly range into Time models and inner intervals, empowering traders with data-driven insights to anticipate market expansions, detect Time-based distortions, and understand volatility fluctuations at specific Times during the trading week.
Key Features:
Time-Based Weekly Models and Volatility Awareness: The DTT Weekly Time Models automatically map onto your chart, highlighting critical volatility points in weekly sessions. These models help traders recognize potential shifts in the market, ideal for identifying larger, swing-oriented moves.
Average Model Range Probability (AMRP): The AMRP feature calculates the historical probability of reaching previous DTT Weekly Model Ranges. With AMRP and Standard Deviation metrics, traders can evaluate the likelihood of DTT model continuations or breaks, aligning their strategy with higher Timeframe volatility trends.
Root Candles and Liquidity Draws: Visualize Root Candles as liquidity draws, emphasizing premium and discount areas and marking the origin of a Time-based price movement. The tool allows traders to toggle features like opening prices and equilibrium points of each Root Candle. Observing accumulation or distribution zones around these candles provides crucial reference points for strategic swing entries and exits.
Extended Visualization of Weekly Model Ranges: Leverage previous weekly model ranges within the current Time model to observe historical high, low, and equilibrium levels. This feature aids traders in visualizing premium and discount ranges of prior models, pinpointing areas of liquidity and imbalance to watch.
Customization Options: Tailor Time intervals with a variety of line styles (solid, dashed, dotted) and colours to customize each model. Adjust settings to display specific historical weekly models, apply custom labels, and create a personalized view that suits your trading style and focus.
Lookback Periods and Model Count: Select customizable lookback periods to display past models, offering insights into market behaviour over a chosen historical range. This feature enables clean, organized charts and allows analysts to add more models for detailed backtesting and analysis.
Detailed Real-Time Data Table: The live data table provides easy access to AMRP and range data for selected models. This table highlights model targets and anticipated ranges, offering insights into whether previous models have exceeded historical volatility expectations or remained within them.

AutoCorrelation Test [OmegaTools]Overview
The AutoCorrelation Test indicator is designed to analyze the correlation patterns of a financial asset over a specified period. This tool can help traders identify potential predictive patterns by measuring the relationship between sequential returns, effectively assessing the autocorrelation of price movements.
Autocorrelation analysis is useful in identifying the consistency of directional trends (upward or downward) and potential cyclical behavior. This indicator provides an insight into whether recent price movements are likely to continue in a similar direction (positive correlation) or reverse (negative correlation).
Key Features
Multi-Period Autocorrelation: The indicator calculates autocorrelation across three periods, offering a granular view of price movement consistency over time.
Customizable Length & Sensitivity: Adjustable parameters allow users to tailor the length of analysis and sensitivity for detecting correlation.
Visual Aids: Three separate autocorrelation plots are displayed, along with an average correlation line. Dotted horizontal lines mark the thresholds for positive and negative correlation, helping users quickly assess potential trend continuation or reversal.
Interpretive Table: A table summarizing correlation status for each period helps traders make quick, informed decisions without needing to interpret the plot details directly.
Parameters
Source: Defines the price source (default: close) for calculating autocorrelation.
Length: Sets the analysis period, ranging from 10 to 2000 (default: 200).
Sensitivity: Adjusts the threshold sensitivity for defining correlation as positive or negative (default: 2.5).
Interpretation
Above 50 + Sensitivity: Indicates Positive Correlation. The price movements over the selected period are likely to continue in the same direction, potentially signaling a trend continuation.
Below 50 - Sensitivity: Indicates Negative Correlation. The price movements show a likelihood of reversing, which could signal an upcoming trend reversal.
Between 50 ± Sensitivity: Indicates No Correlation. Price movements are less predictable in direction, with no clear trend continuation or reversal tendency.
How It Works
The indicator calculates the logarithmic returns of the selected source price over each length period.
It then compares returns over consecutive periods, categorizing them as either "winning" (consistent direction) or "losing" (inconsistent direction) movements.
The result for each period is displayed as a percentage, with values above 50% indicating a higher degree of directional consistency (positive or negative).
A table updates with descriptive labels (Positive Correlation, Negative Correlation, No Correlation) for each tested period, providing a quick overview.
Visual Elements
Plots:
AutoCorrelation Test : Displays autocorrelation for the closest period (lag 1).
AutoCorrelation Test : Displays autocorrelation for the second period (lag 2).
AutoCorrelation Test : Displays autocorrelation for the third period (lag 3).
Average: Displays the simple moving average of the three test periods for a smoothed view of overall correlation trends.
Horizontal Lines:
No Correlation (50%): A baseline indicating neutral correlation.
Positive/Negative Correlation Thresholds: Dotted lines set at 50 ± Sensitivity, marking the thresholds for significant correlation.
Usage Guide
Adjust Parameters:
Select the Source to define which price metric (e.g., close, open) will be analyzed.
Set the Length based on your preferred analysis window (e.g., shorter for intraday trends, longer for swing trading).
Modify Sensitivity to fine-tune the thresholds based on market volatility and personal trading preference.
Interpret Table and Plots:
Use the table to quickly check the correlation status of each lag period.
Analyze the plots for changes in correlation. If multiple lags show positive correlation above the sensitivity threshold, a trend continuation may be expected. Conversely, negative values suggest a potential reversal.
Integrate with Other Indicators:
For enhanced insights, consider using the AutoCorrelation Test indicator in conjunction with other trend or momentum indicators.
This indicator offers a powerful method to assess market conditions, identify potential trend continuations or reversals, and better inform trading decisions. Its customization options provide flexibility for various trading styles and timeframes.

Implied Volatility WallsThe Implied Volatility Walls (IVW) indicator is a powerful and advanced trading tool designed to help traders identify key market zones where price may encounter significant resistance or support based on volatility. Using implied volatility, historical volatility, and machine learning models, IVW provides traders with a comprehensive understanding of market dynamics. This indicator is especially useful for those who wish to forecast volatility-driven price movements and adjust their trading strategies accordingly.
How the Implied Volatility Walls (IVW) Works:
The Implied Volatility Walls (IVW) indicator uses a combination of historical price data and advanced machine learning algorithms to calculate key volatility levels and forecast future market conditions. It tracks cumulative volatility, identifies support and resistance zones, and detects liquidation bubbles to highlight critical price areas.
The main concept behind this tool is that price tends to move most of the time by the same amount, making it possible to average the past maximum excursion in order to obtain a validated area where traders can be able to see clearly that the price is moving more than normal.
This indicator primarily focuses on:
1. Volatility Zones: Potential support and resistance levels based on implied and historical volatility.
2. Machine Learning Volatility Forecast: A machine learning model that predicts high, medium, or low volatility for future market conditions.
3. Liquidation Detection: Highlights key areas of potential forced liquidations, where market participants may be forced out of their positions, often leading to significant price movements.
4. Backtesting and Win Rate: The indicator continuously monitors how effective its volatility-based predictions are, offering insights into the performance of its predictions.
Key Features:
1. Volatility Tracking:
- The IVW indicator calculates cumulative volatility by analyzing the range between the high and low prices over time. It also tracks volatility percentiles and separates the market conditions into high, medium, or low volatility zones, enabling traders to gauge how volatile the market is.
2. Volatility Walls (Upper and Lower Zones):
- Upper Volatility Wall (Red Zones): Represent resistance levels where the price might encounter difficulty moving higher due to excess in volatility. This zone is calculated based on the chosen percentile in the settings.
- Lower Volatility Wall (Blue Zones): Represent support levels where price may find buying support.
- These walls help traders visualize potential zones where reversals or breakouts could occur based on volatility conditions.
3. Machine Learning Forecast:
- One of the standout features of the IVW indicator is its machine learning algorithm that estimates future volatility levels. It categorizes volatility into high, medium, and low based on recent data and provides forecasts on what the next market condition is likely to be.
- This forecast helps traders anticipate market conditions and adapt their strategies accordingly. It is displayed on the chart as "Exp. Vol", providing insight into the future expected volatility.
4. VIX Adjustments:
- The indicator can be adjusted using the well-known **VIX (Volatility Index)** to further refine its volatility predictions. This enables traders to incorporate market sentiment into their analysis, improving the accuracy of the predictions for different market conditions.
5. Liquidation Bubbles:
- The Liquidation Bubbles feature highlights areas where large forced selling or buying events may occur, which are usually accompanied by spikes in volatility and volume. These bubbles appear when price deviates significantly from moving averages with substantial volume increases, alerting traders to potential volatile moves.
- Red dots indicate likely forced liquidations on the upside, and blue dots indicate forced liquidations on the downside. These bubbles can help traders spot moments of market stress and potential price swings due to liquidations.
6. Dynamic Volatility Zones:
- IVW dynamically adjusts support and resistance levels as market conditions evolve. This allows traders to always have up-to-date and relevant information based on the latest volatility patterns.
7. Cumulative Volatility Histogram:
- At the bottom of the chart, the purple histogram represents cumulative volatility over time, giving traders a visual cue of whether volatility is building up or subsiding. This can provide early signals of market transitions from low to high volatility, aiding traders in timing their entries and exits more accurately.
8. Backtesting and Win Rate:
- The IVW indicator includes a backtesting function that monitors the success of its volatility predictions over a selected period. It shows a Win Rate (WR) percentage (with 33% meaning that the machine learning algorithm does not bring any edge), representing how often the indicator's predictions were correct. This metric is crucial for assessing the reliability of the model’s forecasts.
9. Opening Range:
- At the beginning of a new session, the indicator will plot two lines indicating the high and the low of the first candle of the new time frame chosen.
Chart Breakdown:
Below is a description of what users see when using the Implied Volatility Walls (IVW) indicator on the chart:
Volatility Walls:
- Red shaded zones at the top represent upper volatility walls (resistance zones), while blue shaded zones at the bottom represent lower volatility walls (support zones). These areas show where price is likely to react due to high or low volatility conditions.
Liquidation Bubbles:
- Red and blue dots plotted above and below the price represent **liquidation bubbles**, indicating moments of market stress where volatility and volume spikes may force market participants to exit positions.
Cumulative Volatility Histogram:
- The purple histogram at the bottom of the chart reflects the buildup of cumulative volatility over time. Higher bars suggest increased volatility, signaling the potential for large price movements, while smaller bars represent calmer market conditions.
Real-Time Support and Resistance Levels:
- Solid and dashed lines represent current and historical support and resistance levels, helping traders identify price zones that have historically acted as volatility-driven turning points.
Gradient Bar Colors:
- The price bars change color based on their proximity to the volatility walls, with different colors representing how close the price is to these key levels. This color gradient provides a quick visual cue of potential market turning points.
Data Tables Explained:
Table 1: **Volatility Information Table (Top Right Corner):
- EV: Expected Volatility (based on the VIX FIX calculation from Larry Williams).
- +V and -V: Represents the adjusted volatility for upward (+V) and downward (-V) movements.
- Exp. Vol: Shows the expected volatility condition for the next period (High, Medium, or Low) based on the machine learning algorithm.
- WR: The Win Rate based on the backtesting of previous volatility predictions (three outcomes, so base Win rate is 33%, and not 50%).
Table 2: Expected Cumulative Range (Top Right Corner of the separated pane):
- Exp. CR: Expected Cumulative Range based on a machine learning algorithm that calculate the most likely outcome (cumulative range) based on the past days and metrics.
How to Use the Indicator:
1. Identify Key Support and Resistance Levels:
- Use the upper (red) and lower (blue) volatility walls to identify zones where the price is likely to face resistance or support due to volatility dynamics.
2. Forecast Future Volatility:
- Pay attention to the Expected Vol field in the table to understand whether the machine learning model predicts high, medium, or low volatility for the next trading session.
3. Monitor Liquidation Bubbles:
- Watch for red and blue bubbles as they can signal significant market events where volatility and volume spikes may lead to sudden price reversals or continuations.
4. Use the Histogram to Gauge Market Conditions:
- The cumulative volatility histogram shows whether the market is entering a high or low volatility phase, helping you adjust your risk accordingly and making you able to identify the potential of the rest of the chosen session.
5. Backtesting Confidence:
- The Win Rate (WR) provides insight into how reliable the indicator’s predictions have been over the backtested period, giving you additional confidence in its future forecasts, remember that considering the 3 scenarios possible (high volatility, medium and low volatility), the standard win rate is 33%, and not 50%!.
Final Notes:
The Implied Volatility Walls (IVW) indicator is a powerful tool for volatility-based analysis, providing traders with real-time data on potential support and resistance levels, liquidation bubbles, and future market conditions. By leveraging a machine learning model for volatility forecasting, this tool helps traders stay ahead of the market’s volatility patterns and make informed decisions.

DTT Volatility Grid [Pro+] (NINE/ANARR)Introduction:
This tool is designed to automate the Digital Time Theory (DTT) framework created by Ivan and Anarr, and leverage the DTT Volatility Grid to navigate the advanced realm of Time-based statistical trading.
Description:
Built upon the proprietary Digital Time Theory (DTT), this script equips traders with an edge in analyzing Time and price-based market behaviour. It is designed for intraday traders of all asset classes, and breaks down the entire Daily range into Time Models and Inner Time Intervals. This tool is powered by data-driven insights, helping traders anticipate expansions, understand Time distortions, and assess market volatility at specific Times of the trading day.
Key Features:
Time-Based Models and Volatility Awareness: The indicator automatically populates the chart with DTT's Time Models. These Time Models, represented by specific Time Intervals, are engineered to highlight volatility injections within key sessions, offering traders clear insights into market dynamics and potential shifts.
Average Model Range Probability (AMRP): Know the average volatility expected for specific Time Models and use AMRP Levels (and Standard Deviation) to gauge the probability of a range break or failure, based on historical price action and Time data.
Root Candles and Liquidity Draws: Visualize Root Candles as draws on liquidity, showcasing premium and discount areas, and the starting point of a Time based price movement. Understand how the opening price and equilibrium of each Root Candle can serve as a framework for your trade executions. Distribution or accumulation above or below Root Candles can also be observed and utilized.
Extended Visualization: Observe prior Model Ranges into the current Time Model, including the High, Low, and Equilibrium from the previous Time Models, helping traders visualize potential support or resistance areas.
Lookback Periods and Model Count: Use customizable lookback periods to adjust the number of past models, providing further insight into market behaviour over a chosen historical range. This can help to keep charts clean and organized with one model displayed or multiple for backtesting purposes.
Detailed Data Table: The real-Time data table allows traders to view the AMRP and range data for selected models, providing an easy reference for model behaviour and volatility dynamics. The table can depict all Time Model average ranges for reference and study, providing insights to whether the previous models have exceeded their historical range volatility, or not.
Customization Options: Customize Time Intervals with various styles (solid, dashed, dotted) and choose different colors for each model or interval. You can also select which historical models to display, alongside customizable labels.
How Traders Can Use DTT Volatility Grid Effectively:
Understand Premium and Discount Areas: By tracking Time-based ranges and using DTT's Root Candles and Previous Model Equilibrium, traders can quickly assess whether price is trading in premium or discount territory during intraday sessions.
Expecting Volatility and Time-Sensitive Trades: Knowing when a move is nearing exhaustion or when Time-based distortions are likely to cause an expansion allows traders to stay ahead of sudden market shifts. The Inner Intervals and Root Candles in combination, highlight the volatility ranges across various Timeframes, giving traders insights into which Times of the day are likely to experience heightened market activity as per DTT.
Avoiding Low Volatility Periods: The AMRP system helps traders identify times of the day where price action is likely to slow down or become choppy, encouraging traders to step aside or reduce risk during these times. If the AMRP was extended above the average of the previous Time model and the current model depicts an average range probability of low volatility, then traders can sit out in anticipation for a model with higher volatility.
Usage Guidance:
Add DTT Volatility Grid (NINE/ANARR) to your TradingView chart.
Customize your preferred time intervals, model history, and visual settings for your session.

It is useful for all types of market participants, whether trading stocks, indices, or other financial instruments, and provides an overview of the stock’s attributes such as its country, exchange, industry, and more.
Key Features
Displays a table containing key stock data, such as the stock’s name, country of origin, exchange, industry, sector, and type.
Shows additional details such as stock description, currency, and time zone, all sourced directly from syminfo.
Overlay feature allows the table to appear on the chart itself, making the information easily accessible while analyzing price action.
The table is customizable for style, with a navy blue background, white text, and border customization to match different charting themes.
Inputs (User Parameters)
This indicator doesn't offer customizable user inputs since it automatically pulls stock information from TradingView’s syminfo system. It ensures simplicity in use, allowing traders to focus on the provided data.
Output (How to Read the Indicator)
The output of the "Stock Info by IT Wala" indicator is a table that appears on the chart, showing:
Stock: The stock’s root symbol, such as AAPL for Apple or TSLA for Tesla.
Country: The country where the stock is listed or operates primarily.
Exchange: The prefix of the stock's exchange (e.g., NASDAQ, NYSE).
Industry: The industry to which the stock belongs, such as Technology, Healthcare, or Finance.
Sector: The broader sector, like Consumer Goods or Energy.

Volume Insignts AnalyzerDescription:
The Volume Insight Analyzer is an advanced Pine Script designed for traders who want a comprehensive view of volume dynamics on their charts. This script combines multiple volume-based indicators to help identify key trading opportunities, including significant volume days, volume dry-ups, and pocket pivots.
Key Features:
VDU (Volume Dry-Up) Detection: Automatically identifies and marks days when the volume is significantly below its moving average, helping to spot potential breakout or breakdown points. Customizable volume thresholds allow for tailored analysis based on your trading strategy. The Volume Dry-Up label appears when the volume is substantially below its average level and the price is near a key moving average. This condition indicates a period of equilibrium between supply and demand, suggesting a potential low-risk entry point for traders.
Pocket Pivot Analysis using 5 and 10 Length Pocket Pivots: Highlights days with exceptionally high volume compared to recent history, indicating potential pocket pivots. Visual markers on the chart and volume bars color-coded for 5 and 10-day lengths. Pocket pivot points are identified when the volume on a given day exceeds the maximum volume observed over the past several days. Specifically, a 5-day pocket pivot point is marked when today's volume surpasses the highest selling volume of the last 5 days. A cluster of 5-day pocket pivot points within a base is a strong indicator of stock strength. Similarly, a 10-day pocket pivot point following a Volume Dry-Up (VDU) suggests a potential entry opportunity. Moreover, a pre-existing cluster of 5-day pocket pivot points before a 10-day pocket pivot point provides greater conviction in the trade.
Volume Moving Averages: Set different lengths for primary and secondary moving averages to track volume trends over daily, weekly, and monthly timeframes. Options to display moving average lines on the volume chart.
Volume Visualization:
a. Major and Minor Volume Bars: Option to display bars that are either above or below average volume levels. Adjustable settings to show or hide these bars based on user preference.
b. Volume Bar Coloring: Volume bars are color-coded based on significant volume thresholds, including green for bullish signals, red for bearish signals, and orange for volume dry-ups.
Volume Metrics Table: A customizable table that displays real-time volume metrics including Relative Volume (RVOL), Turnover, and the number of high volume days. The table can be oriented horizontally or vertically and styled according to your theme preferences.
Visual Indicators:
a) Volume Dry-Up (VDU) Labels: Clearly marked VDU events with textual annotations on the chart.
b) Bullish and Bearish Arrows: Arrows indicating potential bullish or bearish closes based on volume analysis, enhancing decision-making.
Customization Options:
a) Dark and Light Theme Support: Toggle between dark and light themes to match your chart settings.
b) Adjustable Parameters: Easily configure input settings such as volume thresholds, MA lengths, and table display options to fit your trading style.
How to Use:
Set Parameters: Adjust the script settings such as volume thresholds, moving average lengths, and display preferences according to your analysis needs.
Analyze Volume Patterns: Use the indicators and visual markers provided by the script to identify significant volume patterns and potential trading signals.
Monitor Metrics: Refer to the volume metrics table for a quick overview of key volume-related statistics and trends.
Make Informed Decisions: Utilize the visual cues and volume data provided by the script to enhance your trading strategy and make more informed decisions.

ICT Opening Range GapOpening Range Gap
The Opening Range Gap, also known as the Regular Trading Hours (RTH) Gap, is the distance between the first opening tick of a session and the previous session's close, when looking at a chart's Regular Trading Hours (not to be confused with Electronic Trading Hours). This gap is an important element for Futures Market traders that follow the works of The Inner Circle Trader (ICT). To be more specific, the Opening Range Gap occurs between 4:15pm and 9:30am of the next day.
The Opening Range Gap can be viewed easily when switching the session type to "Regular trading hours".
The image above shows an example of an RTH Gap for Wednesday, June 12, 2024 in CME_MINI:ES1!
How To Use Opening Range Gap
The Opening Range Gap can be used like any other form of a gap by extending it into future price action and looking for it to be filled on the same day or the upcoming days.
Looking for 50% of the gap to be filled as an initial target is one of the methodologies taught by ICT. Additionally, the high and low of the gap (as well as the midpoint) can be used as points of dynamic support & resistance, even if the gap is already filled. Therefore, these gaps do not "expire", and they can be used as key price levels extended through to the end of the week.
Disclaimer
This indicator is mainly intended to work for Futures markets, and specifically the following Index Futures markets: E-mini S&P 500 Futures, E-mini NASDAQ-100 Futures, E-mini DOW Futures.
Given that, the indicator still supports various other markets/assets out-of-the-box, such as other types of Futures Markets, Stocks, Options, and more. The main difference will be that other markets may have RTH Gaps forming at different times, rather than the 4:15pm-9:30am gap that occurs in the Index Futures (Regular trading hours).
Indicator Purpose
While RTH Gaps can be labeled by hand, this indicator allows you to quickly plot multiple RTH Gaps and get a quick glimpse at potential gaps that you may have missed, which could end up being useful in your analysis.
This indicator is 100% custom-built, not using code from any other existing indicators that may plot Opening Range Gaps. The main purpose of this indicator was to overcome many shortcomings from other existing indicators, most notably the problem of displaying RTH Gaps while using ETH as the chart session.
Therefore, this indicator has many UNIQUE features, such as:
Ability to maintain accuracy of the closing/opening prices even when changing chart settings (e.g., toggling ETH/RTH sessions, toggling BACK-ADJUSTMENT on futures contracts, toggling SETTLEMENT prices, etc.).
Draw up to 25 previous Opening Range Gaps, even on ultra-low timeframes like the 1-minute or 1-second chart.
Automatically or manually choose which Opening Range Gaps to hide/show on the chart.
Highly customizable, including a different color scheme to easily distinguish between the Current and Previous RTH Gaps.
Modified price values to correctly display prices that use a format like 109'32 (e.g., Bond Futures or Wheat Futures).
Helpful tooltips to provide more detailed information about the RTH Gaps or about the current Input Settings.
Error Messages
There are some conditions which can cause the script to fail and display an error message (by clicking the red exclamation mark next to the indicator.)
Error messages:
Use a Standard Chart Type : this will occur when using a non-standard chart such as Heikin Ashi, Renko, Point & Figure, etc.
Use a Daily or Lower Timeframe : this error will appear when using a higher timeframe chart like weekly or monthly, because it can clutter the chart since RTH Gaps can form every day.
RTH Gap was not detected : this means that no RTH gap was found, which will occur on markets that don't have the option to toggle between ETH and RTH sessions (e.g., Forex or Crypto).
Exceeded the maximum lookback for Bar Replay mode : when using bar replay mode; this can depend on the amount of historical bars available in different account subscription types.
Unable to Activate Bar Replay mode : if the indicator could not be used in Bar Replay mode.
Restart Bar Replay : if the indicator works in Bar Replay but it detected an error that would cause RTH Gaps to be plotted incorrectly.
This is an example of what a script error would look like.
Indicator Settings
Most settings are self-explanatory or have a tooltip with information on what the setting does, but this section will only briefly cover the available settings.
Extend to End of Day : This setting is enabled by default. It will extend each RTH Gap only up to the end of its day (specifically, to the RTH close of the day). The option can be toggled OFF to automatically extend all RTH Gaps to the right-most candle on the chart.
Previous RTH Gaps : Between 1 and 25 previous RTH Gaps can be displayed. The checkbox can be toggled to quickly hide all previous RTH Gaps (but the same effect would be reached by setting the value to 0).
Hide Current RTH Gap : The Current RTH Gap (most recent one), can be optionally hidden from being plotted.
Beginning Anchor Point : Choose the beginning anchor point for all RTH Gaps. The default is "RTH Close", which means that each gap will be drawn on the chart starting from their previous session's RTH close @ 4:15pm. But it will be a more transparent version of the actual gap; this ghost-like image will extend from 4:15pm all the way up to 9:30am where the gap will then be drawn normally from 9:30am onwards. The other option for this setting is "RTH Open" which means that the gap will be drawn starting from the actual 9:30am opening.
Current RTH Gap Style
These settings are used to customize the visual style of the most recent RTH Gap (also known as the "Current" RTH Gap). Note: the exact same set of settings are available for the Previous RTH Gaps. The text label next to each gap can be optionally hidden to clean the chart a little.
Price Table
These are settings to customize the appearance of the Price Table on the right, including the ability to hide it completely. Note: to actually use the color configurations, you must select "Custom Style" in one of the dropdowns, otherwise it will use "Default Style" which means that the Price Table is automatically styled based on the colors chosen in the Current RTH Gap Style and Previous RTH Gap Style settings.
Overlap Handling
One of 7 available overlap handling options can be used to filter which RTH Gaps are plotted on the chart. By default, the "None" option will be selected, meaning that all valid RTH Gaps are plotted on the chart.
Formatting
Date Format : select the format of the date that is shown next to each RTH Gaps.
Timezone : choose the timezone for the RTH Gap closing/opening date-times that are displayed (only in tooltips when you hover over an RTH Gap label).
RTH Gap Label : choose the details to display next to each gap (e.g., date, or gap number, or both).
Price Format : only two options: Auto/Decimal. "Auto" uses custom processing to allow displaying values such as 109'32 for Bond futures.
Tooltips
The indicator provides additional details about an RTH Gap when you hover over a row in the Price Table.
Note: the same information can be found by hovering over the Text Label that is to the right of each RTH Gap (even when the Text Label is disabled via the Settings).
Overlap Handling
The tooltip next to "Select a Strategy" in the options will provide details on each overlap handling strategy. Additionally, when a strategy is selected, a new row in the Price Table will appear; hovering over that will show details about the currently selected strategy, as well as any suggestions in case the inputs were invalid. When a strategy hides an RTH Gap, the number in the Price Table will be replaced with an "Eye" icon, indicating that it is not currently plotted on the chart.
Available strategies are:
Option 1 (Gradients) : select the percentage opacity to shade RTH Gaps in. The more recent RTH Gaps will be closer to the maximum opacity defined, while the older RTH Gaps will appear more transparent, closer to the minimum opacity defined. Note: only affects previous RTH Gaps, not the current RTH Gap.
Option 2 (Day Extension) : select the number of days to extend each RTH Gap up to. Note: this will override the "Extend to End of Day" setting, regardless whether it is toggled ON or OFF.
Option 3 (Nested Gaps) : hides nested gaps, i.e., RTH Gaps that are enclosed within another RTH Gap. Note: this option is only available when the "Extend to End of Day" setting is disabled .
Option 4 (Intersecting Gaps) : hides intersecting/overlapping gaps, i.e., RTH Gaps that overlap one another (this may also include, but is not limited to, nested gaps). The drop-down next to this option allows choosing the priority of which RTH Gaps to hide first. Note: this option is only available when the "Extend to End of Day" setting is disabled .
Option 5 (Gap Width) : the chart will only show RTH Gaps that have a width/size between the defined parameters.
Option 6 (Close Proximity) : the chart will only show the RTH Gaps that are within a certain range from the market price. This can be useful when plotting multiple RTH Gaps while using auto-scaling on the chart. By only showing nearby RTH Gaps, it will prevent the auto-scaling from having to compress the candles to fit the far-away RTH Gaps onto the screen.
Option 7 (CSV) : this option is used if none of the others suit you well; it allows specifically choosing which RTH Gaps to hide or show on the chart.
This is an example that chooses the Overlap Handling Strategy Option 6. Note that in this example, the tooltip in the price table shows a warning that the Input Number should be increased to plot some RTH Gaps on the chart.
Tips
Chart settings can be toggled to "Scale price chart only" to prevent the auto-scaling of TradingView from compressing the chart if there are RTH Gaps that are far away from the current market action.
If you change a lot of indicator settings such as RTH Gap color schemes, you can save the settings as the Default to prevent your settings from resetting the next time you use the indicator.
Probability of Monday Rise After Friday FallPurpose:
This indicator calculates the probability of a price rise on Monday following a fall on the preceding Friday. It marks Fridays on the chart and displays the count and probabilities of such occurrences over the last 500 bars (or a user-defined lookback period).
Inputs:
Lookback Period: The number of bars to look back for the analysis (default is 500).
Mark Fridays?: Option to mark Fridays on the chart.
Table Background Color: The background color of the results table.
Text Color: The color of the text in the results table.
Logic:
Initialization:
The script initializes counters for:
Fridays with a fall (bear bars).
Mondays with a rise (bull bars) following a Friday fall.
Mondays with a fall (bear bars) following a Friday fall.
Definitions:
isFriday(): Checks if a bar is a Friday.
isMonday(): Checks if a bar is a Monday.
Data Analysis:
The script iterates over the last 500 bars (or the user-defined lookback period) to:
Identify Fridays with a fall (bear bars).
Check the next bar to see if it is a Monday and if it follows a Friday fall. If so, it checks whether the Monday is a rise (bull bar) or a fall (bear bar) and increments the corresponding counter.
Calculating Probabilities:
Probability of Monday Rise after Friday Fall: The ratio of Mondays with a rise following a Friday fall to the total number of Friday falls, expressed as a percentage.
Probability of Monday Fall after Friday Fall: The ratio of Mondays with a fall following a Friday fall to the total number of Friday falls, expressed as a percentage.
Displaying Results:
The results are displayed in a table at the top right corner of the chart, showing:
The count of Fridays with a fall.
The count and probability of Mondays with a rise following a Friday fall.
The count and probability of Mondays with a fall following a Friday fall.
Marking Fridays:
Optionally, the script marks Fridays on the chart with a triangle below the bar.

🔶 СОДЕРЖАНИЕ
Индикатор обеспечивает детальную визуализацию реального объема . Другие функции, такие как изменение цвета свечей в зависимости от объема, отображение гистограммы процентное изменение объема и отображение свечи, собравшей ликвидность, но самой уникальной функцией является определение эффективных и неэффективных движений, оповещения по ним встроены в индикатор, и у трейдеров появится уникальная возможность установить оповещения на ожидание первого эффективного движения (его смысл и описание ниже). ) , всё это реализовано посредством продвинутых вычислительных алгоритмов, примененных в коде.
Ключевые функции включают в себя гистограмму реального объема, динамическое изменение цвета свечи, таблицу среднего объема, процентное изменение объема, свечу, взявшую ликвидности, скользящие средние объема, эффективные и неэффективные движения с их линиями, 3 типа настраиваемых параметров. Оповещения об объеме.
🔶 ЛОГИКА
🔹 Динамическое изменение цвета свечей (Изменить цвет свечей)
Свечи меняют цвет на контрастный , если их объем превышает объем предыдущей свечи , дифференцируются на бычьи и медвежьи , включая настройки прозрачности и цвета . Можно настроить, включить или отключить.

GKD-M Stepped Baseline Optimizer [Loxx]The Giga Kaleidoscope GKD-M Stepped Baseline Optimizer is a Metamorphosis module included in the "Giga Kaleidoscope Modularized Trading System."
█ Introduction
The GKD-M Stepped Baseline Optimizer is an advanced component of the Giga Kaleidoscope Modularized Trading System (GKD), designed to enhance trading strategy development by dynamically optimizing Baseline moving averages. This tool allows traders to evaluate over 65 moving averages, adjusting them across multiple periods to identify which settings yield the highest win rates for their trading strategies. The optimizer systematically tests these moving averages across specified timeframes and intervals, offering insights into net profit, total closed trades, win percentages, and other critical metrics for both long and short positions. Traders can define the initial period and incrementally adjust this value to explore a wide range of periods, thus fine-tuning their strategies with precision. What sets the GKD-M Stepped Baseline Optimizer apart is its unique capability to adapt the baseline moving average according to the highest win rates identified during backtesting, at each trading candle. This win-rate adaptive approach ensures that the trading system is always aligned with the most effective period settings for the selected moving average, enhancing the system's overall performance. Moreover, the 'stepped' aspect of this optimizer introduces a filtering process based ons, significantly reducing market noise and ensuring that identified trends are both significant and reliable. This feature is critical for traders looking to mitigate the risks associated with volatile market conditions and to capitalize on genuine market movements.In essence, the GKD-M Stepped Baseline Optimizer is tailored for traders who utilize the GKD trading system, offering a sophisticated tool to refine their baseline indicators dynamically, ensuring that their trading strategies are continuously optimized for maximum efficacy.
**the backtest data rendered to the chart above uses $5 commission per trade and 10% equity per trade with $1 million initial capital. Each backtest result for each ticker assumes these same inputs. The results are NOT cumulative, they are separate and isolated per ticker and trading side, long or short**
█ Core Features
Stepped Baseline for Noise Reduction
One of the hallmark features of the GKD-M Stepped Baseline Optimizer is its stepped baseline capability. This advanced functionality employs volatility filters to refine the selection of moving averages, significantly reducing market noise. The optimizer ensures that only substantial and reliable trends are considered, eliminating the false signals often caused by minor price fluctuations. This stepped approach to baseline optimization is critical for traders aiming to develop strategies that are both resilient and responsive to genuine market movements.
Dynamic Win Rate Adaptive Capability
Another cornerstone feature is the optimizer’s dynamic win rate adaptive capability. This unique aspect allows the optimizer to adjust the moving average period settings in real-time, based on the highest win rates derived from backtesting over a predefined range. At every trading candle, the optimizer evaluates a comprehensive set of backtesting data to ascertain the optimal period settings for the moving average in use. To perform the backtesting, the trader selects an initial period input (default is 60) and a skip value that increments the initial period input up to seven times. For instance, if a skip value of 5 is chosen, the Baseline Optimizer will run the backtest for the selected moving average on periods such as 60, 65, 70, 75, and so on, up to 90. If the user selects an initial period input of 45 and a skip value of 2, the Baseline Optimizer will conduct backtests for the chosen moving average on periods like 45, 47, 49, 51, and so forth, up to 57. The GKD-M Stepped Baseline Optimizer then exports the baseline with the highest cumulative win rate per candle to any baseline-enabled GKD backtest. This ensures that the baseline indicator remains continually aligned with the most efficacious parameters, dynamically adapting to changing market conditions.
Comprehensive Moving Averages Evaluation
The optimizer’s ability to test over 65 different moving averages across multiple periods stands as a testament to its comprehensive analytical capability. Traders have the flexibility to explore a wide array of moving averages, from traditional ones like the Simple Moving Average (SMA) and Exponential Moving Average (EMA) to more complex types such as the Hull Moving Average (HMA) and Adaptive Moving Average (AMA). This extensive evaluation allows traders to pinpoint the moving average that best aligns with their trading strategy and market conditions, further enhancing the system’s adaptability and effectiveness.
Volatility Filtering and Ticker Volatility Types
Incorporating a wide range of volatility types, including the option to utilize external volatility tickers like the VIX for filtering, adds another layer of sophistication to the optimizer. This feature allows traders to calibrate their baseline according to externals, providing an additional dimension of customization. Whether using standard deviation, ATR, or external volatility indices, traders can fine-tune their strategies to be responsive to the broader market sentiment and volatility trends.
█ Key Inputs
Baseline Settings
• Baseline Source: Determines the price data (Open, High, Low, Close) used for moving average calculations.
• Baseline Period: The starting period for moving average calculation.
• Backtest Skip: Incremental steps for period adjustments in the optimization process.

• Backtest Type: Chooses between a fixed window or cumulative data approach for backtesting.
• Initial Capital, Order Size, & Type: Sets the financial parameters for backtesting, including starting equity and the scale of trades.
• Commission per Order: Accounts for trading costs within backtest profitability calculations.
Date and Time Range
• From/Thru Year/Month/Day: Defines the historical period for strategy testing.
• Entry Time: Specifies the time frame during which trades can be initiated, crucial for strategies sensitive to market timing.
Volatility Measurements for Goldie Locks Volatility Qualifiers
• Mean Type & Period: Chooses the moving average type and period for volatility assessment.
• Inner/Outer Volatility Qualifier Multipliers: Adjusts the boundaries for volatility-based trade qualification.
• Activate Qualifier Boundaries: Enables or disables the upper and lower volatility qualifiers.
Advanced Volatility Inputs
• Volatility Ticker Selection & Trading Days: Incorporates external volatility indices (e.g., VIX) into the strategy, adjusting for market volatility.
• Static Percent, MAD Internal Filter Period, etc.: Provides fixed or adaptive volatility thresholds for filtering.
UI Customization
• Baseline Width & Table Display Options: Customizes the visual representation of the baseline and the display of optimization results.
• Table Header/Content Color & Text Size: Enhances readability and user interface aesthetics.
Export Options
• Export Data: Selects the specific metric to be exported from the script, such as net profit or average profit per trade.
Moving Average Specific Parameters
Specific inputs tailored to the characteristics of selected moving averages (e.g., Fractal Adjusted (FRAMA), Least Squares Moving Average (LSMA), T3, etc.), allowing users to fine-tune the behavior of these averages based on unique formula requirements.
█ Indicator UI
• Long and Short Baselines: The optimizer differentiates trends through two distinct baselines: a green line for long (uptrend) baselines and a red line for short (downtrend) baselines. These baselines alternate activation based on the current trend direction as determined by the moving average plus length combination for the candle in view.
Ambiguity in market direction, when an uptrend and downtrend are concurrently indicated, is visually represented by yellow lines.
• Stepping Mechanism for Trend Visualization: Adjusting the source input and the moving average output based on volatility, the indicator exhibits a stepped appearance on the chart. This mechanism ensures that only substantial market movements, surpassing a specified volatility threshold, are recognized as trend changes.
Stepping Activated
• Goldilocks Zone: Beyond the long and short baselines, the Goldilocks zone introduces a distinct moving average that closely follows the selected price or source input, aiming to strike the perfect balance between not too much and not too little market movement for trading. The upper limit of the Goldilocks zone indicates a market stretch too far for advantageous trading (overextension), while the lower limit suggests inadequate market movement for entry (underextension). Trading within the Goldilocks zone is deemed optimal, as it signifies sufficient but not excessive volatility for entering trades, aligning with either the long or short baseline recommendations. Moreover, the mean of the Goldilocks zone serves as a critical indicator, offering a median reference point that aligns closely with the market's current state. This mean is pivotal for traders, as it represents a 'just right' condition for market entry, embodying the essence of the Goldilocks principle in financial trading strategies.
• Signal Indicators and Entry Points: The chart includes with green or red dots to signify valid price points within the Goldilocks zone, indicative of conducive trading conditions. Furthermore, small directional arrows at the chart's bottom highlight potential long or short entry points, validated by the Goldilocks zone's parameters.
• Data Table: A table presenting real-time statistics from the current candle backward through the chosen range offers insights into win rates and other relevant data, aiding in informed decision-making. This table adapts with each new candle, highlighting the most favorable win rates for both long and short positions.
█ Optimizing Strategy with Backtesting
Optimizing a trading strategy with backtesting involves rigorously testing the strategy on historical data to evaluate its performance and robustness before applying it in live markets. The GKD-M Stepped Baseline Optimizer incorporates advanced backtesting capabilities, offering both cumulative and rolling window types of backtests. Here's how each backtest type operates and the insights they provide for refining trading strategies:
Cumulative Backtest
• Overview: A cumulative backtest evaluates a strategy's performance over a continuous period without resetting the strategy parameters or the simulated trading capital at the beginning of each new period.
• Utility: This type is useful for understanding a strategy's long-term viability, assessing how it adapts to different market conditions over an extended timeframe.
• Interpreting Statistics: Cumulative backtest results often focus on overall return, drawdowns, win rate, and the Sharpe ratio. A strategy with consistent returns, manageable drawdowns, a high win rate, and a favorable Sharpe ratio is considered robust.
Rolling Window Backtest
• Overview: Unlike the cumulative approach, a rolling window backtest divides the historical data into smaller, overlapping or non-overlapping periods (windows), running the strategy separately on each. After each window, the strategy parameters and simulated trading capital are reset.
• Utility: This method is invaluable for assessing a strategy's consistency and adaptability to various market phases. It helps identify if the strategy's performance is dependent on specific market conditions.
• Interpreting Statistics: For rolling window backtests, consistency is key. Look for similar performance metrics (returns, drawdowns, win rate) across different windows. Variability in performance indicates sensitivity to market conditions, suggesting the need for strategy adjustments.
Strategy Refinement Through Backtest Statistics
• Net Profit and Loss: Measures the strategy’s overall effectiveness. Consistent profitability across different market conditions is a positive indicator.
• Win Rate and Profit Factor: High win rates and profit factors indicate a strategy's efficiency in capturing gains over losses.
• Average Profit per Trade: Understanding the strategy's ability to generate profit on a per-trade basis can highlight its operational efficiency.
• Average Number of Bars in Trade: This metric helps understand the strategy's market exposure and timing efficiency.
