Market Strength Buy Sell Indicator [TradeDots]A specialized tool designed to assist traders in evaluating market conditions through a multifaceted analysis of relative performance, beta-adjusted returns, momentum, and volume—allowing you to identify optimal points for long or short trades. By integrating multiple benchmarks (default S&P 500) and percentile-based thresholds, the script provides clear, actionable insights suitable for both day trading and higher-level timeframe assessments.
📝 HOW IT WORKS
1. Multi-Factor Composite Score
Relative Performance (RS Ratio): Compares your asset’s performance to a chosen benchmark (default: SPY). Values above 1.0 indicate outperformance, while below 1.0 suggest underperformance.
Beta-Adjusted Returns: Checks the ticker’s excess movement relative to expected market-related moves. This helps distinguish pure “alpha” from broad market effects.
Volume & Correlation: Volume spikes often confirm the momentum behind a move, while correlation measures how closely the asset tracks or diverges from its benchmark.
These components merge into a 0–100 composite score. Scores above 50 frequently imply bullish strength; drops below 50 often point to underperformance—potentially flagging short opportunities.
2. Intraday & Day Trading Focus
Monitoring Below 50: During the trading day, the script calculates live data against the benchmark, offering an intraday-sensitive composite score. A dip under 50 may indicate a short bias for that session, especially when accompanied by high volume or momentum shifts.
3. Higher Timeframe Monitoring
Daily Strategies: On daily or weekly charts, the script reveals overall relative strength or weakness compared to the S&P 500. This higher-level perspective helps form broader trading biases—crucial for swing or position trades spanning multiple days.
Long/Short Thresholds: Persistent readings above 50 on a daily chart typically reinforce a long bias, while consistent dips below 50 can sustain a short or cautious outlook.
4. Pair Trading Applications
Custom Benchmark Selection: By setting a specific ticker pair as your benchmark instead of the default S&P 500, you can identify spread trading opportunities between two correlated assets. This allows you to go long the outperforming asset while shorting the underperforming one when the spread reaches extreme levels.
4. Color-Coded Signals & Alerts
Visual Zones (25–75): Color-coded bands highlight strong outperformance (above 75) or pronounced underperformance (below 25).
Alerts on Strong Shifts: Automatic alerts can notify you of sudden entries or exits from bullish or bearish zones, so you can potentially act on new market information without delay.
⚙️ HOW TO USE
1. Select Your Timeframe: For scalping or day trading, lower intervals (e.g., 5-minute) offer immediate data resets at the session’s start. For multi-day insight, daily or weekly charts reveal broader performance trends.
2. Watch Key Levels Around 50: Intraday dips under 50 may be a cue to consider short trades, while bounces above 50 can confirm renewed strength.
3. Assess Benchmark Relationships: Compare your asset’s score and signals to the broader market. A stock falling below its pair’s relative strength line might lag overall market momentum.
4. Combine Tools & Validate: This script excels when integrated with other technical analysis methods (e.g., support/resistance, chart patterns) and fundamental factors for a holistic market view.
❗ LIMITATIONS
No Direction Guarantee: The indicator identifies relative strength but does not guarantee directional price moves.
Delayed Updates: Since calculations update after each bar close, sudden intrabar changes may not immediately reflect.
Market-Specific Behaviors: Some assets or unusual market conditions may deviate from typical benchmarks, weakening signal reliability.
Past ≠ Future: High or low relative strength in the past may not predict continued performance.
RISK DISCLAIMER
All forms of trading and investing involve risk, including the possible loss of principal. This indicator analyzes relative performance but cannot assure profits or eliminate losses. Past performance of any strategy does not guarantee future results. Always combine analysis with proper risk management and your broader trading plan. Consult a licensed financial advisor if you are unsure of your individual risk tolerance or investment objectives.

Ergodic Market Divergence (EMD)Ergodic Market Divergence (EMD)
Bridging Statistical Physics and Market Dynamics Through Ensemble Analysis
The Revolutionary Concept: When Physics Meets Trading
After months of research into ergodic theory—a fundamental principle in statistical mechanics—I've developed a trading system that identifies when markets transition between predictable and unpredictable states. This indicator doesn't just follow price; it analyzes whether current market behavior will persist or revert, giving traders a scientific edge in timing entries and exits.
The Core Innovation: Ergodic Theory Applied to Markets
What Makes Markets Ergodic or Non-Ergodic?
In statistical physics, ergodicity determines whether a system's future resembles its past. Applied to trading:
Ergodic Markets (Mean-Reverting)
- Time averages equal ensemble averages
- Historical patterns repeat reliably
- Price oscillates around equilibrium
- Traditional indicators work well
Non-Ergodic Markets (Trending)
- Path dependency dominates
- History doesn't predict future
- Price creates new equilibrium levels
- Momentum strategies excel
The Mathematical Framework
The Ergodic Score combines three critical divergences:
Ergodic Score = (Price Divergence × Market Stress + Return Divergence × 1000 + Volatility Divergence × 50) / 3
Where:
Price Divergence: How far current price deviates from market consensus
Return Divergence: Momentum differential between instrument and market
Volatility Divergence: Volatility regime misalignment
Market Stress: Adaptive multiplier based on current conditions
The Ensemble Analysis Revolution
Beyond Single-Instrument Analysis
Traditional indicators analyze one chart in isolation. EMD monitors multiple correlated markets simultaneously (SPY, QQQ, IWM, DIA) to detect systemic regime changes. This ensemble approach:
Reveals Hidden Divergences: Individual stocks may diverge from market consensus before major moves
Filters False Signals: Requires broader market confirmation
Identifies Regime Shifts: Detects when entire market structure changes
Provides Context: Shows if moves are isolated or systemic
Dynamic Threshold Adaptation
Unlike fixed-threshold systems, EMD's boundaries evolve with market conditions:
Base Threshold = SMA(Ergodic Score, Lookback × 3)
Adaptive Component = StDev(Ergodic Score, Lookback × 2) × Sensitivity
Final Threshold = Smoothed(Base + Adaptive)
This creates context-aware signals that remain effective across different market environments.
The Confidence Engine: Know Your Signal Quality
Multi-Factor Confidence Scoring
Every signal receives a confidence score based on:
Signal Clarity (0-35%): How decisively the ergodic threshold is crossed
Momentum Strength (0-25%): Rate of ergodic change
Volatility Alignment (0-20%): Whether volatility supports the signal
Market Quality (0-20%): Price convergence and path dependency factors
Real-Time Confidence Updates
The Live Confidence metric continuously updates, showing:
- Current opportunity quality
- Market state clarity
- Historical performance influence
- Signal recency boost
- Visual Intelligence System

Entropy Chart Analysis [PhenLabs]📊 Entropy Chart analysis -
Version: PineScript™ v6
📌 Description
The Entropy Chart indicator analysis applies Approximate Entropy (ApEn) to identify zones of potential support and resistance on your price chart. It is designed to locate changes in the market’s predictability, with a focus on zones near significant psychological price levels (e.g., multiples of 50). By quantifying entropy, the indicator aims to identify zones where price action might stabilize (potential support) or become randomized (potential resistance).
This tool automates the visualization of these key areas for traders, which may have the effect of revealing reversal levels or consolidation zones that would be hard to discern through traditional means. It also filters the signals by proximity to key levels in an attempt to reduce noise and highlight higher-probability setups. These dynamic zones adapt to changing market conditions by stretching, merging, and expiring based on user-inputted rules.
🚀 Points of Innovation
Combines Approximate Entropy (ApEn) calculation with price action near significant levels.
Filters zone signals based on proximity (in ticks) to predefined significant price levels (multiples of 50).
Dynamically merges overlapping or nearby zones to consolidate signals and reduce chart clutter.
Uses ApEn crossovers relative to its moving average as the core trigger mechanism.
Provides distinct visual coloring for bullish, bearish, and merged (mixed-signal) zones.
Offers comprehensive customization for entropy calculation, zone sensitivity, level filtering, and visual appearance.
🔧 Core Components
Approximate Entropy (ApEn) Calculation : Measures the regularity or randomness of price fluctuations over a specified window. Low ApEn suggests predictability, while high ApEn suggests randomness.
Zone Trigger Logic : Creates potential support zones when ApEn crosses below its average (indicating increasing predictability) and potential resistance zones when it crosses above (indicating increasing randomness).
Significant Level Filter : Validates zone triggers only if they occur within a user-defined tick distance from significant price levels (multiples of 50).
Dynamic Zone Management : Automatically creates, extends, merges nearby zones based on tick distance, and removes the oldest zones to maintain a maximum limit.
Zone Visualization : Draws and updates colored boxes on the chart to represent active support, resistance, or mixed zones.
🔥 Key Features
Entropy-Based S/R Detection : Uses ApEn to identify potential support (low entropy) and resistance (high entropy) areas.
Significant Level Filtering : Enhances signal quality by focusing on entropy changes near key psychological price points.
Automatic Zone Drawing & Merging : Visualizes zones dynamically, merging close signals for clearer interpretation.
Highly Customizable : Allows traders to adjust parameters for ApEn calculation, zone detection thresholds, level filter sensitivity, merging distance, and visual styles.
Integrated Alerts : Provides built-in alert conditions for the formation of new bullish or bearish zones near significant levels.
Clear Visual Output : Uses distinct, customizable colors for buy (support), sell (resistance), and mixed (merged) zones.
🎨 Visualization
Buy Zones : Represented by greenish boxes (default: #26a69a), indicating potential support areas formed during low entropy periods near significant levels.
Sell Zones : Represented by reddish boxes (default: #ef5350), indicating potential resistance areas formed during high entropy periods near significant levels.
Mixed Zones : Represented by bluish/purple boxes (default: #8894ff), formed when a buy zone and a sell zone merge, indicating areas of potential consolidation or conflict.
Dynamic Extension : Active zones are automatically extended to the right with each new bar.
📖 Usage Guidelines

Sell Zone Color : Default: color.new(#ef5350, 83). Sets the fill color for resistance zones.
Mixed Zone Color : Default: color.new(#8894ff, 83). Sets the fill color for merged zones.
Buy Border Color : Default: #26a69a. Sets the border color for support zones.
Sell Border Color : Default: #ef5350. Sets the border color for resistance zones.
Mixed Border Color : Default: color.new(#a288ff, 50). Sets the border color for mixed zones.
Border Width : Default: 1, Range: 1-3. Sets the thickness of zone borders.
✅ Best Use Cases
Identifying potential support/resistance near significant psychological price levels (e.g., $50, $100 increments).
Detecting potential market turning points or consolidation zones based on shifts in price predictability.
Filtering entries or exits by confirming signals occurring near significant levels identified by the indicator.
Adding context to other technical analysis approaches by highlighting entropy-derived zones.
⚠️ Limitations
Parameter Dependency : Indicator performance is sensitive to parameter settings ( Window Length , Tolerance , Zone Threshold , Max Ticks Distance ), which may need optimization for different assets and timeframes.
Volatility Sensitivity : High market volatility or erratic price action can affect ApEn calculations and potentially lead to less reliable zone signals.
Fixed Level Filter : The significant level filter is based on multiples of 50. While common, this may not capture all relevant levels for every asset or market condition. Accurate Tick Size input is essential.
Not Standalone : Should be used in conjunction with other analysis methods (price action, volume, other indicators) for confirmation, not as a sole basis for trading decisions.
💡 What Makes This Unique
Entropy + Level Context : Uniquely combines ApEn analysis with a specific filter for proximity to significant price levels (multiples of 50), adding locational context to entropy signals.
Intelligent Zone Merging : Automatically consolidates nearby buy/sell zones based on tick distance, simplifying visual analysis and highlighting stronger confluence areas.
Targeted Signal Generation : Focuses alerts and zone creation on specific market conditions (entropy shifts near key levels).
🔬 How It Works
Calculate Entropy : The script computes the Approximate Entropy (ApEn) of the closing prices over the defined Window Length to quantify price predictability.
Check Triggers : It monitors ApEn relative to its moving average. A crossunder below a calculated threshold (avg_apen / zone_threshold) indicates potential support; a crossover above (avg_apen * zone_threshold) indicates potential resistance.
Filter by Level : A potential zone trigger is confirmed only if the low (for support) or high (for resistance) of the trigger bar is within the Max Ticks Distance of a significant price level (multiple of 50).
Manage & Draw Zones : If a trigger is confirmed, a new zone box is created. The script checks for overlaps with existing zones within the Zone Merge Distance and merges them if necessary. Zones are extended forward, and the oldest are removed to respect the Maximum Zones limit. Active zones are drawn and updated on the chart.
💡 Note:
Crucially, set the Tick Size parameter correctly for your specific trading instrument in the “Level Filter Settings”. Incorrect Tick Size will make the significant level filter inaccurate.
Experiment with parameters, especially Window Length , Tolerance (r) , Zone Threshold , and Max Ticks Distance , to tailor the indicator’s sensitivity to your preferred asset and timeframe.
Always use this indicator as part of a comprehensive trading plan, incorporating risk management and seeking confirmation from other analysis techniques.
Adv EMA Cloud v6 (ADX, Alerts)Summary:
This indicator provides a multi-faceted view of market trends using Exponential Moving Averages (EMAs) arranged in visually intuitive clouds, enhanced with an optional ADX-based range filter and configurable alerts for key market conditions. It aims to help traders quickly gauge trend alignment across short, medium, and long timeframes while filtering signals during potentially choppy market conditions.
Key Features:
Multiple EMAs: Displays 10-period (Fast), 20-period (Mid), and 50-period (Slow) EMAs.
Long-Term Trend Filter: Includes a 200-period EMA to provide context for the overall dominant trend direction.
Dual EMA Clouds:
Fast/Mid Cloud (10/20 EMA): Fills the area between the 10 and 20 EMAs. Defaults to Green when 10 > 20 (bullish short-term momentum) and Red when 10 < 20 (bearish short-term momentum).
Mid/Slow Cloud (20/50 EMA): Fills the area between the 20 and 50 EMAs. Defaults to Aqua when 20 > 50 (bullish mid-term trend) and Fuchsia when 20 < 50 (bearish mid-term trend).
Optional ADX Range Filter: Uses the Average Directional Index (ADX) to identify potentially non-trending or choppy markets. When enabled and ADX falls below a user-defined threshold, the EMA clouds will turn grey, visually warning that trend-following signals may be less reliable.
Configurable Alerts: Provides several built-in alert conditions using Pine Script's alertcondition function:
Confluence Condition: Triggers when a 10/20 EMA crossover occurs while both EMA clouds show alignment (both bullish/green/aqua or both bearish/red/fuchsia) and price respects the 200 EMA filter and the ADX filter indicates a trend (if filters are enabled).
MA Filter Cross: Triggers when price crosses above or below the 200 EMA filter line.
Full Alignment Start: Triggers on the first bar where full bullish or bearish alignment occurs (both clouds aligned + MA filter respected + ADX trending, if filters are enabled).
How It Works:
EMA Calculation: Standard Exponential Moving Averages are calculated for the 10, 20, 50, and 200 periods based on the closing price.
Cloud Creation: The fill() function visually shades the area between the 10 & 20 EMAs and the 20 & 50 EMAs.
Cloud Coloring: The color of each cloud is determined by the relationship between the two EMAs that define it (e.g., if EMA 10 is above EMA 20, the first cloud is bullish-colored).
ADX Filter Logic: The script calculates the ADX value. If the "Use ADX Trend Filter?" input is checked and the calculated ADX is below the specified "ADX Trend Threshold", the script considers the market potentially ranging.
ADX Visual Effect: During detected ranging periods (if the ADX filter is active), the plotCloud12Color and plotCloud23Color variables are assigned a neutral grey color instead of their normal bullish/bearish colors before being passed to the fill() function.
Alert Logic: Boolean variables track the specific conditions (crossovers, cloud alignment, filter positions, ADX state). The alertcondition() function creates triggerable alerts based on these pre-defined conditions.
Potential Interpretation (Not Financial Advice):
Trend Alignment: When both clouds share the same directional color (e.g., both bullish - Green & Aqua) and price is on the corresponding side of the 200 EMA filter, it may suggest a stronger, more aligned trend. Conversely, conflicting cloud colors may indicate indecision or transition.
Dynamic Support/Resistance: The EMA lines themselves (especially the 20, 50, and 200) can sometimes act as dynamic levels where price might react.
Range Warning: Greyed-out clouds (when ADX filter is enabled) serve as a visual warning that trend-based strategies might face increased difficulty or whipsaws.
Confluence Alerts: The specific confluence alerts signal moments where multiple conditions align (crossover + cloud agreement + filters), which some traders might view as higher-probability setups.
Customization:
All EMA lengths (10, 20, 50, 200) are adjustable via the Inputs menu.
The ADX length and threshold are configurable.
The MA Trend Filter and ADX Trend Filter can be independently enabled or disabled.

Crystal Cloud EMA# Crystal Cloud EMA Indicator 🚀
The **Crystal Cloud EMA Indicator** is a hybrid technical analysis tool that uniquely merges the multi-dimensional perspective of the Ichimoku Cloud with the precision of EMA crossovers (EMA 50 & EMA 200). This integration is designed to help traders identify key market trends, dynamic support and resistance zones, and potential momentum shifts with enhanced clarity and reliability.
---
## Key Components & Originality
### Ichimoku Cloud
- **Dynamic Support & Resistance:**
Utilizes standard Ichimoku calculations to form a cloud (Kumo) that highlights areas where price may find support or resistance.
- **Visual Clarity:**
The cloud’s upper and lower boundaries provide clear visual cues of market sentiment, helping to identify potential reversal or consolidation zones.
### EMA 50 & EMA 200
- **Trend Confirmation:**
These exponential moving averages smooth price data to reveal underlying trends.
- **Crossover Signals:**
A crossover of EMA 50 and EMA 200 is used as a signal confirmation—when EMA 50 crosses above EMA 200, it suggests a bullish trend; when it crosses below, it indicates a bearish trend.
### Unique Integration
- **Combined Analysis for Enhanced Accuracy:**
By fusing the Ichimoku Cloud’s dynamic support/resistance zones with the precise timing of EMA crossovers, the indicator minimizes false signals.
- **Confluence of Methods:**
Only when both the cloud position and EMA crossover align does the indicator generate a trading signal, offering a more robust framework than using either method in isolation.
---
## How It Works
1. **Cloud Evaluation:**
- The indicator calculates the Ichimoku Cloud using traditional parameters, establishing dynamic zones where price reactions are likely.
- It monitors how price interacts with these zones, signaling potential momentum shifts when the price moves in or out of the cloud.
2. **EMA Crossover Analysis:**
- Simultaneously, it computes EMA 50 and EMA 200.
- **Bullish Condition:** When price is above the cloud and EMA 50 crosses above EMA 200.
- **Bearish Condition:** When price is below the cloud and EMA 50 crosses below EMA 200.
3. **Signal Confirmation:**
- A breakout from the cloud, in conjunction with a crossover, further validates the strength of the trend.
- This dual confirmation approach filters out market noise and increases the reliability of the signals.
---
## Trading Strategy & Usage
### Buy Signal
- **Conditions:**
- Price is trading above the Ichimoku Cloud.
- EMA 50 crosses above EMA 200.
- A confirmed breakout above the cloud supports the bullish trend.
- **Application:**
- Enter long positions when these conditions align.
- Use the cloud’s lower boundary for potential stop-loss placement and set profit targets based on key resistance levels identified by the cloud.
### Sell Signal
- **Conditions:**
- Price is trading below the Ichimoku Cloud.
- EMA 50 crosses below EMA 200.
- A breakdown below the cloud reinforces the bearish trend.
- **Application:**
- Enter short positions under these conditions.
- Use the cloud’s upper boundary as a reference for setting stop-loss orders and profit targets.
### Best Timeframes & Trading Styles
- **Timeframes:**
Optimally used on M30 and higher timeframes to ensure trend reliability and reduce market noise.
- **Trading Styles:**
Suitable for swing trading, intraday trading, and momentum-based strategies.
- **Risk Management:**
Always complement indicator signals with additional analysis (like volume or price action) and apply proper risk management techniques.

## Important Note
This indicator is a **technical analysis tool** designed to assist traders in identifying market trends and potential reversal points. It should be used in conjunction with comprehensive market analysis and proper risk management. Trading decisions should not rely solely on this indicator.
EMA RSI Trend Reversal Ver.1Overview:
The EMA RSI Trend Reversal indicator combines the power of two well-known technical indicators—Exponential Moving Averages (EMAs) and the Relative Strength Index (RSI)—to identify potential trend reversal points in the market. The strategy looks for key crossovers between the fast and slow EMAs, and uses the RSI to confirm the strength of the trend. This combination helps to avoid false signals during sideways market conditions.
How It Works:
Buy Signal:
The Fast EMA (9) crosses above the Slow EMA (21), indicating a potential shift from a downtrend to an uptrend.
The RSI is above 50, confirming strong bullish momentum.
Visual Signal: A green arrow below the price bar and a Buy label are plotted on the chart.
Sell Signal:
The Fast EMA (9) crosses below the Slow EMA (21), indicating a potential shift from an uptrend to a downtrend.
The RSI is below 50, confirming weak or bearish momentum.
Visual Signal: A red arrow above the price bar and a Sell label are plotted on the chart.
Key Features:
EMA Crossovers: The Fast EMA crossing above the Slow EMA signals potential buying opportunities, while the Fast EMA crossing below the Slow EMA signals potential selling opportunities.
RSI Confirmation: The RSI helps confirm trend strength—values above 50 indicate bullish momentum, while values below 50 indicate bearish momentum.
Visual Cues: The strategy uses green arrows and red arrows along with Buy and Sell labels for clear visual signals of when to enter or exit trades.
Signal Interpretation:
Green Arrow / Buy Label: The Fast EMA (9) has crossed above the Slow EMA (21), and the RSI is above 50. This is a signal to buy or enter a long position.
Red Arrow / Sell Label: The Fast EMA (9) has crossed below the Slow EMA (21), and the RSI is below 50. This is a signal to sell or exit the long position.
Strategy Settings:
Fast EMA Length: Set to 9 (this determines how sensitive the fast EMA is to recent price movements).
Slow EMA Length: Set to 21 (this smooths out price movements to identify the broader trend).
RSI Length: Set to 14 (default setting to track momentum strength).
RSI Level: Set to 50 (used to confirm the strength of the trend—above 50 for buy signals, below 50 for sell signals).
Risk Management (Optional):
Use take profit and stop loss based on your preferred risk-to-reward ratio. For example, you can set a 2:1 risk-to-reward ratio (2x take profit for every 1x stop loss).
Backtesting and Optimization:
Backtest the strategy on TradingView by opening the Strategy Tester tab. This will allow you to see how the strategy would have performed on historical data.
Optimization: Adjust the EMA lengths, RSI period, and risk-to-reward settings based on your asset and time frame.
Limitations:
False Signals in Sideways Markets: Like any trend-following strategy, this indicator may generate false signals during periods of low volatility or sideways movement.
Not Suitable for All Market Conditions: This indicator performs best in trending markets. It may underperform in choppy or range-bound markets.
Strategy Example:
XRP/USD Example:
If you're trading XRP/USD and the Fast EMA (9) crosses above the Slow EMA (21), while the RSI is above 50, the indicator will signal a Buy.
Conversely, if the Fast EMA (9) crosses below the Slow EMA (21), and the RSI is below 50, the indicator will signal a Sell.
Bitcoin (BTC/USD):
On the BTC/USD chart, when the indicator shows a green arrow and a Buy label, it’s signaling a potential long entry. Similarly, a red arrow and Sell label indicate a short entry or exit from a previous long position.
Summary:
The EMA RSI Trend Reversal Indicator helps traders identify potential trend reversals with clear buy and sell signals based on the EMA crossovers and RSI confirmations. By using green arrows and red arrows, along with Buy and Sell labels, this strategy offers easy-to-understand visual signals for entering and exiting trades. Combine this with effective risk management and backtesting to optimize your trading performance.
Blue Sniper V.1Overview
This Pine Script indicator is designed to generate Buy and Sell signals based on proximity to the 50 EMA, stochastic oscillator levels, retracement conditions, and EMA slopes. It is tailored for trending market conditions, making it ideal for identifying high-probability entry points during strong bullish or bearish trends.
Key Features:
Filters out signals in non-trending conditions.
Focuses on retracements near the 50 EMA for precise entries.
Supports alert notifications for Buy and Sell signals.
Includes a cooldown mechanism to prevent signal spamming.
Allows time-based filtering to restrict signals to a specific trading window.
How It Works
Trending Market Conditions
The indicator is most effective when the market exhibits a clear trend. It uses two exponential moving averages (50 EMA and 200 EMA) to determine the overall market trend:
Bullish Trend: 50 EMA is above the 200 EMA, and both EMAs have upward slopes.
Bearish Trend: 50 EMA is below the 200 EMA, and both EMAs have downward slopes.
Buy and Sell Conditions
Buy Signal:
The market is in a bullish trend.
Stochastic oscillator is in the oversold zone.
Price retraces upwards, breaking away from the recent low by more than 1.5 ATR.
Price is near the 50 EMA (within the defined proximity percentage).
Sell Signal:
The market is in a bearish trend.
Stochastic oscillator is in the overbought zone.
Price retraces downwards, breaking away from the recent high by more than 1.5 ATR.
Price is near the 50 EMA.
Outputs
Signals:
Buy Signal: Green "BUY" label below the price bar.
Sell Signal: Red "SELL" label above the price bar.
Alerts:
Alerts are triggered for Buy and Sell signals if conditions are met within the specified time window (if enabled).
EMA Visualization:
50 EMA (blue line).
200 EMA (red line).
Limitations
Not Suitable for Non-Trending Markets: This script is designed for trending conditions. Sideways or choppy markets may produce false signals.
Proximity Tolerance: Adjust the proximityPercent to prevent signals from triggering too frequently during minor oscillations around the 50 EMA.
No Guarantee of Accuracy: As with any technical indicator, it should be used in conjunction with other tools and analysis.
Prometheus Polarized Fractal Efficiency (PFE)This indicator uses market data to calculate Polarized Fractal Efficiency (PFE) on an asset, so traders can have a better idea of which direction it may go.
Users can control the lookback length for the fractal calculation, the lookback length for the Exponential Moving Average (EMA), and whether or not to display lines at the -50 and 50 level, or -25 and 25 level.
Polarized Fractal Efficiency:
The Polarized Fractal Efficiency (PFE) indicator is a value between -100 and 100 with 0 as a midpoint.
A PFE above 0 indicates the asset may trend higher, a PFE below 0 indicates the asset may trend lower.
There are many ways to trade with PFE, the intuitive trend riding as described above, or reversals.
Even when the PFE is above 0, if it gets high enough, it may also be an indication of a reversal. A PFE of 90 - 100, or -100 - -90, may indicate price is ready to revert the other direction. Furthermore, traders already in a position may look to breaks of other levels to be their take profit or stop out spot.
Calculation:
Pi = 100 x (Price - Price )2 + N2 / Summation, j= 0, to N-2 (Price - Price )2 + 1
If Close < Close Pi = -Pi
PFEi = EMA(Pi, M)
Where:
N = period of indicator
M = smoothing period
Citation: www.investopedia.com
Scenarios:
Inputs are (9, 5) and every display option is on.
Trend example
Step 1: A short trade appears as PFE crosses below -25. We reach a safe take profit as PFE crosses below -50. Traders can use these levels to exit as well as enter.
Step 2: On the cross above 25 there is a safe long. As the PFE value breaks 0 a safe, early take profit could be appropriate for this trade. No guarantee we would see 50.
Step 3: Long scenario at break of 25, straight to 50. Simple, straightforward setup.
Step 4: This long results in a stop loss. Once again entry as PFE crosses 25, but as we cross the 0 line it is for a loss.
Step 5: The last trade in this example is reminiscent of step 3. This is a short trade entry at break of 25 and exit at break of 50.
Traders have liberty to use the PFE value to determine spots to enter and exit trades, long or short. 25 and 50 were chosen arbitrarily, values like 10 and 60 may work as well, we encourage traders to use their own discretion along with tools.
Reversal example
Step 1: PFE is around -100, crossing below it at one point! Strong zone for a potential reversal.
Step 2: PFE crosses above 25 adding conviction.
Step 3: Option to exit at 70.
Step 4: Option to exit at 90.
There is no “one size fits all method”, this approach may be more intuitive for some users and is just as feasible as the first.
Longer trend example
Step 1: Using -50 and 50 this time instead of -25 and 25 to be safer on our entries we see a short here. Was a good entry and as the value gets closer to -70 we can safely close.
Step 2: On this candle we see a long for the break of 50. On the next candle we break the 0 line, but because of our safe entry at 50, we could hold this and only stop out at a break of -25. We get close but stay in it and close at 70.
Step 3: Break of 50 for a long once again. This time the break of 0 line occurs as we are in profit, not letting a green trade go red is a golden rule of trading, so an early exit here.
Step 4: Same at step 2, break of 50 to long and stay in it, not stopping out at break of 0 line. The PFE value eventually reaches 70 and there is a good exit.
Quicker Reversal example
Step 1: Notice a close with PFE below -90, enter long for the reversal. Then close for profit when the PFE crosses above 70.
Step 2: When the PFE breaks above 90 we have a short entry. Like the long closing it when it crosses below -70.
Step 3: This step is the same setup as step 2. As PFE breaks above 90 we have a short entry. Closing it when it crosses below -70.
Recap:
Described above are 4 different examples with many different trades. Both trend and reversal trades. The PFE value is an indicator that can be used by traders in many different ways and Prometheus encourages traders to use their own discretion along with tools and not follow indicators blindly.

Six Meridian Divine Swords [theUltimator5]The Six Meridian Divine Sword is a legendary martial arts technique in the classic wuxia novel “Demi-Gods and Semi-Devils” (天龙八部) by Jin Yong (金庸). The technique uses powerful internal energy (qi) to shoot invisible sword-like energy beams from the six meridians of the hand. Each of the six fingers/meridians corresponds to a “sword,” giving six different sword energies.
The Six Meridian Divine Swords indicator is a compact “signal dashboard” that fuses six classic indicators (fingers)—MACD, KDJ, RSI, LWR (Williams %R), BBI, and MTM—into one pane. Each row is a traffic-light dot (green/bullish, red/bearish, gray/neutral). When all six align, the script draws a confirmation line (“All Bullish” or “All Bearish”). It’s designed for quick consensus reads across trend, momentum, and overbought/oversold conditions.
How to Read the Dashboard
The pane has 6 horizontal rows (explained in depth later):
MACD
KDJ
RSI
LWR (Larry Williams %R)
BBI (Bull & Bear Index)
MTM (Momentum)
Each tick in the row is a dot, with sentiment identified by a color.
Green = bullish condition met
Red = bearish condition met
Gray = inside a neutral band (filtering chop), shown when Use Neutral (Gray) Colors is ON
There are two lines that track the dots on the top or bottom of the pane.
All Bullish Signal Line: appears only if all 6 are strongly bullish (default color = white)
All Bearish Signal Line: appears only if all 6 are strongly bearish (default color = fuchsia)
The Six Meridians (Indicators) — What They Mean:
1) MACD — Trend & Momentum
What it is: A trend-following momentum indicator based on the relationship between two moving averages (typically 12-EMA and 26-EMA)
Logic used: Classic MACD line (EMA12−EMA26) vs its 9-EMA signal.
Bullish: MACD > Signal and |MACD−Signal| > Neutral Threshold
Bearish: MACD < Signal and |diff| > threshold
Neutral: |diff| ≤ threshold
Why: Small crosses can whipsaw. The neutral band ignores tiny separations to reduce noise.
Inputs: Fast/Slow/Signal lengths, Neutral Threshold.
2) KDJ — Stochastic with J-line boost
What it is: A variation of the stochastic oscillator popular in Chinese trading systems
Logic used: K = SMA(Stochastic, smooth), D = SMA(K, smooth), J = 3K − 2D.
Bullish: K > D and |K−D| > 2
Bearish: K < D and |K−D| > 2
Neutral: |K−D| ≤ 2
Why: K–D separation filters tiny wiggles; J offers an “extreme” early-warning context in the value label.
Inputs: Length, Smoothing.
3) RSI — Momentum balance (0–100)
What it is: A momentum oscillator measuring speed and magnitude of price changes (0–100)
Logic used: RSI(N).
Bullish: RSI > 50 + Neutral Zone
Bearish: RSI < 50 − Neutral Zone
Neutral: Between those bands
Why: Centerline/adaptive bands (around 50) give a directional bias without relying on fixed 70/30.
Inputs: Length, Neutral Zone (± around 50).
4) LWR (Williams %R) — Overbought/Oversold
What it is: An oscillator similar to stochastic, measuring how close the close is to the high-low range over N periods
Logic used: %R over N bars (0 to −100).
Bullish: %R > −50 + Neutral Zone
Bearish: %R < −50 − Neutral Zone
Neutral: Between those bands
Why: Uses a centered band around −50 instead of only −20/−80, making it act like a directional filter.
Inputs: Length, Neutral Zone (± around −50).
5) BBI (Bull & Bear Index) — Smoothed trend bias
What it is: A composite moving average, essentially the average of several different moving averages (often 3, 6, 12, 24 periods)
Logic used: Average of 4 SMAs (3/6/12/24 by default):
BBI = (MA3 + MA6 + MA12 + MA24) / 4
Bullish: Close > BBI and |Close−BBI| > 0.2% of BBI
Bearish: Close < BBI and |diff| > threshold
Neutral: |diff| ≤ threshold
Why: Multiple MAs blended together reduce single-MA whipsaw. A dynamic 0.2% band ignores tiny drift.
Inputs: 4 lengths (default 3/6/12/24). Threshold is auto-scaled at 0.2% of BBI.
6) MTM (Momentum) — Rate of change in price
What it is: A simple measure of rate of change
Logic used: MTM = Close − Close
Bullish: MTM > 0.5% of Close
Bearish: MTM < −0.5% of Close
Neutral: |MTM| ≤ threshold
Why: A percent-based gate adapts across prices (e.g., $5 vs $500) and mutes insignificant moves.
Inputs: Length. Threshold auto-scaled to 0.5% of current Close.
Display & Inputs You Can Tweak
🎨 Use Neutral (Gray) Colors
ON (default): 3-color mode with clear “no-trade”/“weak” states.
OFF: classic binary (green/red) without neutral filtering.

Topological Market Stress (TMS) - Quantum FabricTopological Market Stress (TMS) - Quantum Fabric
What Stresses The Market?
Topological Market Stress (TMS) represents a revolutionary fusion of algebraic topology and quantum field theory applied to financial markets. Unlike traditional indicators that analyze price movements linearly, TMS examines the underlying topological structure of market data—detecting when the very fabric of market relationships begins to tear, warp, or collapse.
Drawing inspiration from the ethereal beauty of quantum field visualizations and the mathematical elegance of topological spaces, this indicator transforms complex mathematical concepts into an intuitive, visually stunning interface that reveals hidden market dynamics invisible to conventional analysis.
Theoretical Foundation: Topology Meets Markets
Topological Holes in Market Structure
In algebraic topology, a "hole" represents a fundamental structural break—a place where the normal connectivity of space fails. In markets, these topological holes manifest as:
Correlation Breakdown: When traditional price-volume relationships collapse
Volatility Clustering Failure: When volatility patterns lose their predictive power
Microstructure Stress: When market efficiency mechanisms begin to fail
The Mathematics of Market Topology
TMS constructs a topological space from market data using three key components:
1. Correlation Topology
ρ(P,V) = correlation(price, volume, period)
Hole Formation = 1 - |ρ(P,V)|
When price and volume decorrelate, topological holes begin forming.
2. Volatility Clustering Topology
σ(t) = volatility at time t
Clustering = correlation(σ(t), σ(t-1), period)
Breakdown = 1 - |Clustering|
Volatility clustering breakdown indicates structural instability.
3. Market Efficiency Topology
Efficiency = |price - EMA(price)| / ATR
Measures how far price deviates from its efficient trajectory.
Multi-Scale Topological Analysis
Markets exist across multiple temporal scales simultaneously. TMS analyzes topology at three distinct scales:
Micro Scale (3-15 periods): Immediate structural changes, market microstructure stress
Meso Scale (10-50 periods): Trend-level topology, medium-term structural shifts
Macro Scale (50-200 periods): Long-term structural topology, regime-level changes
The final stress metric combines all scales:
Combined Stress = 0.3×Micro + 0.4×Meso + 0.3×Macro
How TMS Works
1. Topological Space Construction
Each market moment is embedded in a multi-dimensional topological space where:
- Price efficiency forms one dimension
- Correlation breakdown forms another
- Volatility clustering breakdown forms the third
2. Hole Detection Algorithm
The indicator continuously scans this topological space for:
Hole Formation: When stress exceeds the formation threshold
Hole Persistence: How long structural breaks maintain
Hole Collapse: Sudden topology restoration (regime shifts)
3. Quantum Visualization Engine
The visualization system translates topological mathematics into intuitive quantum field representations:
Stress Waves: Main line showing topological stress intensity
Quantum Glow: Surrounding field indicating stress energy
Fabric Integrity: Background showing structural health
Multi-Scale Rings: Orbital representations of different timeframes
4. Signal Generation

Pivot S/R with Volatility Filter## *📌 Indicator Purpose*
This indicator identifies *key support/resistance levels* using pivot points while also:
✅ Detecting *high-volume liquidity traps* (stop hunts)
✅ Filtering insignificant pivots via *ATR (Average True Range) volatility*
✅ Tracking *test counts and breakouts* to measure level strength
---
## *⚙ SETTINGS – Detailed Breakdown*
### *1️⃣ ◆ General Settings*
#### *🔹 Pivot Length*
- *Purpose:* Determines how many bars to analyze when identifying pivots.
- *Usage:*
- *Low values (5-20):* More pivots, better for scalping.
- *High values (50-200):* Fewer but stronger levels for swing trading.
- *Example:*
- Pivot Length = 50 → Only the most significant highs/lows over 50 bars are marked.
#### *🔹 Test Threshold (Max Test Count)*
- *Purpose:* Sets how many times a level can be tested before being invalidated.
- *Example:*
- Test Threshold = 3 → After 3 tests, the level is ignored (likely to break).
#### *🔹 Zone Range*
- *Purpose:* Creates a price buffer around pivots (±0.001 by default).
- *Why?* Markets often respect "zones" rather than exact prices.
---
### *2️⃣ ◆ Volatility Filter (ATR)*
#### *🔹 ATR Period*
- *Purpose:* Smoothing period for Average True Range calculation.
- *Default:* 14 (standard for volatility measurement).
#### *🔹 ATR Multiplier (Min Move)*
- *Purpose:* Requires pivots to show *meaningful price movement*.
- *Formula:* Min Move = ATR × Multiplier
- *Example:*
- ATR = 10 pips, Multiplier = 1.5 → Only pivots with *15+ pip swings* are valid.
#### *🔹 Show ATR Filter Info*
- Displays current ATR and minimum move requirements on the chart.
---
### *3️⃣ ◆ Volume Analysis*
#### *🔹 Volume Change Threshold (%)*
- *Purpose:* Filters for *unusual volume spikes* (institutional activity).
- *Example:*
- Threshold = 1.2 → Requires *120% of average volume* to confirm signals.
#### *🔹 Volume MA Period*
- *Purpose:* Lookback period for "normal" volume calculation.
---
### *4️⃣ ◆ Wick Analysis*
#### *🔹 Wick Length Threshold (Ratio)*
- *Purpose:* Ensures rejection candles have *long wicks* (strong reversals).
- *Formula:* Wick Ratio = (Upper Wick + Lower Wick) / Candle Range
- *Example:*
- Threshold = 0.6 → 60% of the candle must be wicks.
#### *🔹 Min Wick Size (ATR %)*
- *Purpose:* Filters out small wicks in volatile markets.
- *Example:*
- ATR = 20 pips, MinWickSize = 1% → Wicks under *0.2 pips* are ignored.
---
### *5️⃣ ◆ Display Settings*
- *Show Zones:* Toggles support/resistance shaded areas.
- *Show Traps:* Highlights liquidity traps (▲/▼ symbols).
- *Show Tests:* Displays how many times levels were tested.
- *Zone Transparency:* Adjusts opacity of zones.
---
## *🎯 Practical Use Cases*
### *1️⃣ Liquidity Trap Detection*
- *Scenario:* Price spikes *above resistance* then reverses sharply.
- *Requirements:*
- Long wick (Wick Ratio > 0.6)
- High volume (Volume > Threshold)
- *Outcome:* *Short Trap* signal (▼) appears.
### *2️⃣ Strong Support Level*
- *Scenario:* Price bounces *3 times* from the same level.
- *Indicator Action:*
- Labels the level with test count (3/5 = 3 tests out of max 5).
- Turns *red* if broken (Break Count > 0).
Deep Dive: How This Indicator Works*
This indicator combines *four professional trading concepts* into one powerful tool:
1. *Classic Pivot Point Theory*
- Identifies swing highs/lows where price previously reversed

2. *Volume-Weighted Validation*
- Requires unusual trading volume to confirm levels
- Filters out "phantom" levels with low participation
3. *ATR Volatility Filtering*
- Eliminates insignificant price swings in choppy markets
- Ensures only meaningful levels are plotted
4. *Liquidity Trap Detection*
- Spots institutional stop hunts where markets fake out traders
- Uses wick analysis + volume spikes for high-probability signals

Cryptolabs Global Liquidity Cycle Momentum IndicatorCryptolabs Global Liquidity Cycle Momentum Indicator (LMI-BTC)
This open-source indicator combines global central bank liquidity data with Bitcoin price movements to identify medium- to long-term market cycles and momentum phases. It is designed for traders who want to incorporate macroeconomic factors into their Bitcoin analysis.
How It Works
The script calculates a Liquidity Index using balance sheet data from four central banks (USA: ECONOMICS:USCBBS, Japan: FRED:JPNASSETS, China: ECONOMICS:CNCBBS, EU: FRED:ECBASSETSW), augmented by the Dollar Index (TVC:DXY) and Chinese 10-year bond yields (TVC:CN10Y). This index is:
- Logarithmically scaled (math.log) to better represent large values like central bank balances and Bitcoin prices.
- Normalized over a 50-period range to balance fluctuations between minimum and maximum values.
- Compared to prior-year values, with the number of bars dynamically adjusted based on the timeframe (e.g., 252 for 1D, 52 for 1W), to compute percentage changes.
The liquidity change is analyzed using a Chande Momentum Oscillator (CMO) (period: 24) to measure momentum trends. A Weighted Moving Average (WMA) (period: 10) acts as a signal line. The Bitcoin price is also plotted logarithmically to highlight parallels with liquidity cycles.
Usage
Traders can use the indicator to:
- Identify global liquidity cycles influencing Bitcoin price trends, such as expansive or restrictive monetary policies.
- Detect momentum phases: Values above 50 suggest overbought conditions, below -50 indicate oversold conditions.
- Anticipate trend reversals by observing CMO crossovers with the signal line.
It performs best on higher timeframes like daily (1D) or weekly (1W) charts. The visualization includes:
- CMO line (green > 50, red < -50, blue neutral), signal line (white), Bitcoin price (gray).
- Horizontal lines at 50, 0, and -50 for improved readability.
Originality
This indicator stands out from other momentum tools like RSI or basic price analysis due to:
- Unique Data Integration: Combines four central bank datasets, DXY, and CN10Y as macroeconomic proxies for Bitcoin.
- Dynamic Prior-Year Analysis: Calculates liquidity changes relative to historical values, adjustable by timeframe.
- Logarithmic Normalization: Enhances visibility of extreme values, critical for cryptocurrencies and macro data.
This combination offers a rare perspective on the interplay between global liquidity and Bitcoin, unavailable in other open-source scripts.
Settings
- CMO Period: Default 24, adjustable for faster/slower signals.
- Signal WMA: Default 10, for smoothing the CMO line.
- Normalization Window: Default 50 periods, customizable.
Users can modify these parameters in the Pine Editor to tailor the indicator to their strategy.
Note
This script is designed for medium- to long-term analysis, not scalping. For optimal results, combine it with additional analyses (e.g., on-chain data, support/resistance levels). It does not guarantee profits but supports informed decisions based on macroeconomic trends.

EMA Crossover Strategy with Take Profit and Candle HighlightingStrategy Overview:
This strategy is based on the Exponential Moving Averages (EMA), specifically the EMA 20 and EMA 50. It takes advantage of EMA crossovers to identify potential trend reversals and uses multiple take-profit levels and a stop-loss for risk management.
Key Components:
EMA Crossover Signals:
Buy Signal (Uptrend): A buy signal is generated when the EMA 20 crosses above the EMA 50, signaling the start of a potential uptrend.
Sell Signal (Downtrend): A sell signal is generated when the EMA 20 crosses below the EMA 50, signaling the start of a potential downtrend.
Take Profit Levels:
Once a buy or sell signal is triggered, the strategy calculates multiple take-profit levels based on the range of the previous candle. The user can define multipliers for each take-profit level.
Take Profit 1 (TP1): 50% of the previous candle's range above or below the entry price.
Take Profit 2 (TP2): 100% of the previous candle's range above or below the entry price.
Take Profit 3 (TP3): 150% of the previous candle's range above or below the entry price.
Take Profit 4 (TP4): 200% of the previous candle's range above or below the entry price.
These levels are adjusted dynamically based on the previous candle's high and low, so they adapt to changing market conditions.
Stop Loss:
A stop-loss is set to manage risk. The default stop-loss is 3% from the entry price, but this can be adjusted in the settings. The stop-loss is triggered if the price moves against the position by this amount.
Trend Direction Highlighting:
The strategy highlights the bars (candles) with colors:
Green bars indicate an uptrend (when EMA 20 crosses above EMA 50).
Red bars indicate a downtrend (when EMA 20 crosses below EMA 50).
These visual cues help users easily identify the market direction.
Strategy Entries and Exits:
Entries: The strategy enters a long (buy) position when the EMA 20 crosses above the EMA 50 and a short (sell) position when the EMA 20 crosses below the EMA 50.
Exits: The strategy exits the positions at any of the defined take-profit levels or the stop-loss. Multiple exit levels provide opportunities to take profit progressively as the price moves in the favorable direction.
Entry and Exit Conditions in Detail:
Buy Entry Condition (Uptrend):
A buy position is opened when EMA 20 crosses above EMA 50, signaling the start of an uptrend.
The strategy calculates take-profit levels above the entry price based on the previous bar's range (high-low) and the multipliers for TP1, TP2, TP3, and TP4.
Sell Entry Condition (Downtrend):
A sell position is opened when EMA 20 crosses below EMA 50, signaling the start of a downtrend.
The strategy calculates take-profit levels below the entry price, similarly based on the previous bar's range.
Exit Conditions:
Take Profit: The strategy attempts to exit the position at one of the take-profit levels (TP1, TP2, TP3, or TP4). If the price reaches any of these levels, the position is closed.
Stop Loss: The strategy also has a stop-loss set at a default value (3% below the entry for long trades, and 3% above for short trades). The stop-loss helps to protect the position from significant losses.
Backtesting and Performance Metrics:
The strategy can be backtested using TradingView's Strategy Tester. The results will show how the strategy would have performed historically, including key metrics like:
Net Profit
Max Drawdown
Win Rate
Profit Factor
Average Trade Duration
These performance metrics can help users assess the strategy's effectiveness over historical periods and optimize the input parameters (e.g., multipliers, stop-loss level).
Customization:
The strategy allows for the adjustment of several key input values via the settings panel:
Take Profit Multipliers: Users can customize the multipliers for each take-profit level (TP1, TP2, TP3, TP4).
Stop Loss Percentage: The user can also adjust the stop-loss percentage to a custom value.
EMA Periods: The default periods for the EMA 50 and EMA 20 are fixed, but they can be adjusted for different market conditions.
Pros of the Strategy:
EMA Crossover Strategy: A classic and well-known strategy used by traders to identify the start of new trends.
Multiple Take Profit Levels: By taking profits progressively at different levels, the strategy locks in gains as the price moves in favor of the position.
Clear Trend Identification: The use of green and red bars makes it visually easier to follow the market's direction.
Risk Management: The stop-loss and take-profit features help to manage risk and optimize profit-taking.
Cons of the Strategy:
Lagging Indicators: The strategy relies on EMAs, which are lagging indicators. This means that the strategy might enter trades after the trend has already started, leading to missed opportunities or less-than-ideal entry prices.
No Confirmation Indicators: The strategy purely depends on the crossover of two EMAs and does not use other confirming indicators (e.g., RSI, MACD), which might lead to false signals in volatile markets.
How to Use in Real-Time Trading:
Use for Backtesting: Initially, use this strategy in backtest mode to understand how it would have performed historically with your preferred settings.
Paper Trading: Once comfortable, you can use paper trading to test the strategy in real-time market conditions without risking real money.
Live Trading: After testing and optimizing the strategy, you can consider using it for live trading with proper risk management in place (e.g., starting with a small position size and adjusting parameters as needed).
Summary:
This strategy is designed to identify trend reversals using EMA crossovers, with customizable take-profit levels and a stop-loss to manage risk. It's well-suited for traders looking for a systematic way to enter and exit trades based on clear market signals, while also providing flexibility to adjust for different risk profiles and trading styles.
RSI-Adjusted 9SMAThis indicator integrates the Relative Strength Index (RSI) and a Simple Moving Average (SMA) to create a more robust trading signal by blending momentum and trend analysis. Here's how they work together:
How the RSI and SMA Work in Harmony
RSI (Momentum Indicator):
The RSI measures the speed and change of price movements, oscillating between 0 and 100.
Typically, an RSI value above 50 suggests bullish momentum, while values below 50 indicate bearish momentum.
The script further refines this by applying a 9-period EMA to the RSI. This smoothing process filters out noise, providing a clearer picture of momentum shifts.
SMA (Trend Indicator):
The SMA calculates the average price over a specific period (9 in this case), helping to smooth out price fluctuations and identify the overall trend.
By observing the SMA, traders can determine whether the market is trending upward, downward, or moving sideways.
Combining the Two for Stronger Signals:
The RSI EMA acts as a momentum filter. When it is above 50, it indicates the presence of bullish momentum. Under such conditions, the SMA turning blue provides a stronger confirmation of an uptrend.
Conversely, when the RSI EMA is below 50, it signals weakening momentum. The SMA turning white underlines the caution, suggesting potential bearish conditions or a lack of trend strength.
This combination ensures that traders are not just relying on the SMA's trend-following behavior but also factoring in the market's underlying momentum for more reliable entries and exits.
Why This Approach is Robust
Avoid False Signals:
The SMA alone can generate false signals in choppy or range-bound markets. By incorporating the RSI EMA, the script reduces the likelihood of acting on weak or non-committal trends.
Timing Entries and Exits:
When both the SMA and RSI EMA align (e.g., blue SMA and RSI EMA > 50), it provides a stronger case for entering trades. Similarly, misalignment (e.g., white SMA and RSI EMA ≤ 50) warns against entering during uncertain conditions.
Adapting to Market Conditions:
This dual approach captures both short-term momentum shifts (RSI EMA) and longer-term trend direction (SMA), making it useful across different market phases.
Practical Application
Bullish Setup:
RSI EMA > 50 + Blue SMA → Enter or stay in long positions.
Bearish Setup:
RSI EMA ≤ 50 + White SMA → Exit long positions or consider short opportunities.
This combination of indicators offers traders a balanced strategy that considers both the direction of the trend and the underlying momentum, resulting in more confident and timely decision-making.
Composite Oscillation Indicator Based on MACD and OthersThis indicator combines various technical analysis tools to create a composite oscillator that aims to capture multiple aspects of market behavior. Here's a breakdown of its components:
* Individual RSIs (xxoo1-xxoo15): The code calculates the RSI (Relative Strength Index) of numerous indicators, including volume-based indicators (NVI, PVI, OBV, etc.), price-based indicators (CCI, CMO, etc.), and moving averages (WMA, ALMA, etc.). It also includes the RSI of the MACD histogram (xxoo14).
* Composite RSI (xxoojht): The individual RSIs are then averaged to create a composite RSI, aiming to provide a more comprehensive view of market momentum and potential turning points.
* MACD Line RSI (xxoo14): The RSI of the MACD histogram incorporates the momentum aspect of the MACD indicator into the composite measure.
* Double EMA (co, coo): The code employs two Exponential Moving Averages (EMAs) of the composite RSI, with different lengths (9 and 18 periods).
* Difference (jo): The difference between the two EMAs (co and coo) is calculated, aiming to capture the rate of change in the composite RSI.
* Smoothed Difference (xxp): The difference (jo) is further smoothed using another EMA (9 periods) to reduce noise and enhance the signal.
* RSI of Smoothed Difference (cco): Finally, the RSI is applied to the smoothed difference (xxp) to create the core output of the indicator.
Market Applications and Trading Strategies:
* Overbought/Oversold: The indicator's central line (plotted at 50) acts as a reference for overbought/oversold conditions. Values above 50 suggest potential overbought zones, while values below 50 indicate oversold zones.
* Crossovers and Divergences: Crossovers of the cco line above or below its previous bar's value can signal potential trend changes. Divergences between the cco line and price action can also provide insights into potential trend reversals.
* Emoji Markers: The code adds emoji markers ("" for bullish and "" for bearish) based on the crossover direction of the cco line. These can provide a quick visual indication of potential trend shifts.
* Colored Fill: The area between the composite RSI line (xxoojht) and the central line (50) is filled with color to visually represent the prevailing market sentiment (green for above 50, red for below 50).
Trading Strategies (Examples):
* Long Entry: Consider a long entry (buying) signal when the cco line crosses above its previous bar's value and the composite RSI (xxoojht) is below 50, suggesting a potential reversal from oversold conditions.
* Short Entry: Conversely, consider a short entry (selling) signal when the cco line crosses below its previous bar's value and the composite RSI (xxoojht) is above 50, suggesting a potential reversal from overbought conditions.
* Confirmation: Always combine the indicator's signals with other technical analysis tools and price action confirmation for better trade validation.
Additional Notes:
* The indicator offers a complex combination of multiple indicators. Consider testing and optimizing the parameters (EMAs, RSI periods) to suit your trading style and market conditions.
* Backtesting with historical data can help assess the indicator's effectiveness and identify potential strengths and weaknesses in different market environments.
* Remember that no single indicator is perfect, and the cco indicator should be used in conjunction with other forms of analysis to make informed trading decisions.
By understanding the logic behind this composite oscillator and its potential applications, you can incorporate it into your trading strategy to potentially identify trends, gauge market sentiment, and generate trading signals.
Macros ICT KillZones [TradingFinder] Times & Price Trading Setup🔵 Introduction
ICT Macros, developed by Michael Huddleston, also known as ICT (Inner Circle Trader), is a powerful trading tool designed to help traders identify the best trading opportunities during key time intervals like the London and New York trading sessions.
For traders aiming to capitalize on market volatility, liquidity shifts, and Fair Value Gaps (FVG), understanding and using these critical time zones can significantly improve trading outcomes.
In today’s highly competitive financial markets, identifying the moments when the market is seeking buy-side or sell-side liquidity, or filling price imbalances, is essential for maximizing profitability.
The ICT Macros indicator is built on the renowned ICT time and price theory, which enables traders to track and leverage key market dynamics such as breaks of highs and lows, imbalances, and liquidity hunts.
This indicator automatically detects crucial market times and optimizes strategies for traders by highlighting the specific moments when price movements are most likely to occur. A standout feature of ICT Macros is its automatic adjustment for Daylight Saving Time (DST), ensuring that traders remain synced with the correct session times.
This means you can rely on accurate market timing without the need for manual updates, allowing you to focus on capturing profitable trades during critical timeframes.
🔵 How to Use

🟣 Combining ICT Macros with Trading Strategies
The ICT Macros indicator can easily be used in conjunction with various trading strategies. Two well-known strategies that can be combined with this indicator include:
ICT 2022 Trading Model : This model is designed based on identifying market liquidity, structural price changes, and Fair Value Gaps (FVG). By using ICT Macros, you can identify the key time intervals when the market is seeking liquidity, filling imbalances, or breaking through important highs and lows, allowing you to enter or exit trades at the right moment.
Silver Bullet Strategy : This strategy, which is built around liquidity hunting and rapid price movements, can work more accurately with the help of ICT Macros. The indicator pinpoints precise liquidity times, helping traders take advantage of market shifts caused by filling Fair Value Gaps or correcting imbalances.
🟣 Capitalizing on Price Volatility During Key Times
Large market algorithms often seek liquidity or fill Fair Value Gaps (FVG) during the intervals marked by ICT Macros. These periods are when price volatility increases, and traders can use these moments to enter or exit trades.
For example, if sell-side liquidity is drained and the market fills an imbalance, the price might move toward buy-side liquidity. By identifying these moments, which may also involve breaking a previous high or low, you can leverage rapid market fluctuations to your advantage.
🟣 Identifying Liquidity and Price Imbalances
One of the important uses of ICT Macros is identifying points where the market is seeking liquidity and correcting imbalances. You can determine high or low liquidity levels in the market before each ICT Macro, as well as Fair Value Gaps (FVG) and price imbalances that need to be filled, using them to adjust your trading strategy. This capability allows you to manage trades based on liquidity shifts or imbalance corrections without needing a bias toward a specific direction.
🔵 Settings
The ICT Macros indicator offers various customization options, allowing users to tailor it to their specific needs. Below are the main settings:
Time Zone Mode : You can select one of the following options to define how time is displayed:
UTC : For traders who need to work with Universal Time.
Session Local Time : The local time corresponding to the London or New York markets.
Your Time Zone : You can specify your own time zone (e.g., "UTC-4:00").
Your Time Zone : If you choose "Your Time Zone," you can set your specific time zone. By default, this is set to UTC-4:00.
Show Range Time : This option allows you to display the time range of each session on the chart. If enabled, the exact start and end times of each interval are shown.
Show or Hide Time Ranges : Toggle on/off for visual clarity depending on user preference.
Custom Colors : Set distinct colors for each session, allowing users to personalize their chart based on their trading style.These settings allow you to adjust the key time intervals of each trading session to your preference and customize the time format according to your own needs.
🔵 Conclusion
The ICT Macros indicator is a powerful tool for traders, helping them to identify key time intervals where the market seeks liquidity or fills Fair Value Gaps (FVG), corrects imbalances, and breaks highs or lows. This tool is especially valuable for traders using liquidity-based strategies such as ICT 2022 or Silver Bullet.
One of the key features of this indicator is its support for Daylight Saving Time (DST), ensuring you are always in sync with the correct trading session timings without manual adjustments. This is particularly beneficial for traders operating across different time zones.
With ICT Macros, you can capitalize on crucial market opportunities during sensitive times, take advantage of imbalances, and enhance your trading strategies based on market volatility, liquidity shifts, and Fair Value Gaps.

Gold Scalping Strategy with Precise EntriesThe Gold Scalping Strategy with Precise Entries is designed to take advantage of short-term price movements in the gold market (XAU/USD). This strategy uses a combination of technical indicators and chart patterns to identify precise buy and sell opportunities during times of consolidation and trend continuation.
Key Elements of the Strategy:
Exponential Moving Averages (EMAs):
50 EMA: Used as the shorter-term moving average to detect the recent price trend.
200 EMA: Used as the longer-term moving average to determine the overall market trend.
Trend Identification:
A bullish trend is identified when the 50 EMA is above the 200 EMA.
A bearish trend is identified when the 50 EMA is below the 200 EMA.
Average True Range (ATR):
ATR (14) is used to calculate the market's volatility and to set a dynamic stop loss based on recent price movements. Higher ATR values indicate higher volatility.
ATR helps define a suitable stop-loss distance from the entry point.
Relative Strength Index (RSI):
RSI (14) is used as a momentum oscillator to detect overbought or oversold conditions.
However, in this strategy, the RSI is primarily used as a consolidation filter to look for neutral zones (between 45 and 55), which may indicate a potential breakout or trend continuation after a consolidation phase.
Engulfing Patterns:
Bullish Engulfing: A bullish signal is generated when the current candle fully engulfs the previous bearish candle, indicating potential upward momentum.
Bearish Engulfing: A bearish signal is generated when the current candle fully engulfs the previous bullish candle, signaling potential downward momentum.
Precise Entry Conditions:
Long (Buy):
The 50 EMA is above the 200 EMA (bullish trend).
The RSI is between 45 and 55 (neutral/consolidation zone).
A bullish engulfing pattern occurs.
The price closes above the 50 EMA.
Short (Sell):
The 50 EMA is below the 200 EMA (bearish trend).
The RSI is between 45 and 55 (neutral/consolidation zone).
A bearish engulfing pattern occurs.
The price closes below the 50 EMA.
Take Profit and Stop Loss:
Take Profit: A fixed 20-pip target (where 1 pip = 0.10 movement in gold) is used for each trade.
Stop Loss: The stop-loss is dynamically set based on the ATR, ensuring that it adapts to current market volatility.
Visual Signals:
Buy and sell signals are visually plotted on the chart using green and red labels, indicating precise points of entry.
Advantages of This Strategy:
Trend Alignment: The strategy ensures that trades are taken in the direction of the overall trend, as indicated by the 50 and 200 EMAs.
Volatility Adaptation: The use of ATR allows the stop loss to adapt to the current market conditions, reducing the risk of premature exits in volatile markets.
Precise Entries: The combination of engulfing patterns and the neutral RSI zone provides a high-probability entry signal that captures momentum after consolidation.
Quick Scalping: With a fixed 20-pip profit target, the strategy is designed to capture small price movements quickly, which is ideal for scalping.
This strategy can be applied to lower timeframes (such as 1-minute, 5-minute, or 15-minute charts) for frequent trade opportunities in gold trading, making it suitable for day traders or scalpers. However, proper risk management should always be used due to the inherent volatility of gold.
IBD PowerTrendThis IBD PowerTrend indicator is designed to help traders identify strong market uptrends based on the IBD Market School's Power Trend methodology. It is intended to be added to daily charts on major indexes.
Concept and Methodology
The IBD PowerTrend helps traders identify strong market uptrends. Markets generally exist in three states: uptrends, downtrends, and rangebound motion. This methodology focuses on:
Downtrends: Stay out of the market.
Rangebound markets: Often frustrating, best avoided.
Uptrends: Identify the strongest uptrends early.
This indicator uses IBD's research on historical uptrends to help traders get in and stay in during robust market phases.
How It Works
A PowerTrend starts when the following four conditions are met simultaneously on a major index:
10-Day Low Above 21-Day EMA : The market's low must be above the 21-day exponential moving average (EMA) for at least 10 consecutive days.
21-Day EMA Above 50-Day SMA : The 21-day EMA must be above the 50-day simple moving average (SMA) for at least five consecutive days.
50-Day SMA Uptrend : The 50-day SMA must be in an uptrend (one day is sufficient).
Market Closes Up : The market must close higher than the previous day's close.
A PowerTrend typically ends when the 21-day EMA crosses back below the 50-day SMA. However, there are rare cases where a PowerTrend can end early due to a circuit breaker or a follow-through day failure. In this script, a circuit breaker is defined as a break of the 50-day line and being more than 10% below recent highs (interpreted as three months).
How to Use
When the PowerTrend is active, the indicator will plot green circles, signaling a strong market uptrend. During these periods, traders might observe opportunities in growth stocks breaking out of sound bases and consider the use of margin. Conversely, during downtrends, the indicator suggests a more defensive approach.
It is recommended to use on daily timeframe.
