Session Streaks [LuxAlgo]The Session Streaks tool allows traders to identify whether a session is bullish or bearish on the chart. It also shows the current session streak, or the number of consecutive bullish or bearish sessions.
The tool features a dashboard with information about the session streaks of the underlying product on the chart.
🔶 USAGE
Analyzing session streaks is commonly used for market timing by studying the number of consecutive sessions over time and how long they last before the market changes direction.
We identify a bullish session as one in which the closing price is equal to or greater than the opening price, and a bearish session as one in which the closing price is below the opening price.
Each session is labeled according to its bias (bullish or bearish) and the number of consecutive sessions of the same type that conform the current streak.
🔹 Dashboard
The dashboard at the top shows information about the current session.
Under the "Streaks" header, historical information about session streaks is displayed, divided into bullish and bearish categories.
Number: Total number of streaks.
Median: The average duration of those streaks. We chose the median over the mean to avoid misrepresentation due to outliers.
Mode: The most common streak duration.
As the image shows, for this particular market, there are more bullish streaks than bearish ones. Bullish streaks have an average duration that is longer than that of bearish streaks, and both have the same most common streak duration.
If the current session is bullish and the median streak duration for bullish sessions is three, then we could consider scenarios in which the next two sessions are bullish.
🔶 DETAILS
🔹 Streaks On Larger Timeframes
On timeframes lower than or equal to Daily, the tool identifies each consecutive session, but this behavior changes on larger timeframes.
On timeframes larger than daily, the tool identifies the last session of each bar. Let's use the chart in the image as a reference.
At the top of the image, there is a daily chart where each session corresponds to each candle. One candle equals one day.
In the middle, we have a weekly chart where each session is the last session of each week, which is usually Friday for the Nasdaq 100 futures contract. The levels and labels displayed correspond to the last session within each candle, which is the last day of each week.
The levels and labels on the monthly chart correspond to the last session of each month, which is the last day of each month.
🔹 Gradient Style
Traders can choose between two different color gradients for the session background. Each gradient provides different information about price behavior within each session.
Horizontal: Green indicates prices at the top of the session range and red indicates prices at the bottom.
Vertical: Green indicates prices that are equal to or greater than the open price and red indicates prices that are below the open price of the session.
🔶 SETTINGS

pine script tradingbot - many ema oscillator## 🧭 **Many EMA Oscillator (TradingView Pine Script Indicator)**
*A multi-layer EMA differential oscillator for trend strength and momentum analysis*
---
### 🧩 **Overview**
The **Many EMA Oscillator** is a **TradingView Pine Script indicator** designed to help traders visualize **trend direction**, **momentum strength**, and **multi-timeframe EMA alignment** in one clean oscillator panel.
It’s a **custom EMA-based trend indicator** that shows how fast or slow different **Exponential Moving Averages (EMAs)** are expanding or contracting — helping you identify **bullish and bearish momentum shifts** early.
This **Pine Script EMA indicator** is especially useful for traders looking to combine multiple **EMA signals** into one **momentum oscillator** for better clarity and precision.
---
### ⚙️ **How It Works**
1. **Multiple EMA Layers:**
The indicator calculates seven **EMAs** (default: 20, 50, 100, 150, 200, 300) and applies a **smoothing filter** using another EMA (default smoothing = 20).
This removes short-term noise and gives a smoother, professional-grade momentum reading.
2. **EMA Gap Analysis:**
The oscillator measures the **difference between consecutive EMAs**, revealing how trend layers are separating or converging.
```
diff1 = EMA(20) - EMA(50)
diff2 = EMA(50) - EMA(100)
diff3 = EMA(100) - EMA(150)
diff4 = EMA(150) - EMA(200)
diff5 = EMA(200) - EMA(300)
```
These gaps (or “differentials”) show **trend acceleration or compression**, acting like a **multi-EMA MACD system**.
3. **Color-Coded Visualization:**
Each differential (`diff1`–`diff5`) is plotted as a **histogram**:
- 🟢 **Green bars** → EMAs expanding → bullish momentum growing
- 🔴 **Red bars** → EMAs contracting → bearish momentum or correction
This gives a clean, compact view of **trend strength** without cluttering your chart.
4. **Automatic Momentum Signals:**
- **🟡 Up Triangle** → All EMA gaps increasing → strong bullish trend alignment
- **⚪ Down Triangle** → All EMA gaps decreasing → trend weakening or bearish transition
---
### 📊 **Inputs**
| Input | Default | Description |
|-------|----------|-------------|
| `smmoth_emas` | 20 | Smoothing factor for all EMAs |
| `Length2`–`Length7` | 20–300 | Adjustable EMA periods |
| `Length21`, `Length31`, `Length41`, `Length51` | Optional | For secondary EMA analysis |
---
### 🧠 **Interpretation Guide**
| Observation | Meaning |
|--------------|----------|
| Increasing green bars | Trend acceleration and bullish continuation |
| Decreasing red bars | Trend exhaustion or sideways consolidation |
| Yellow triangles | All EMA layers aligned bullishly |
| White triangles | All EMA layers aligned bearishly |
This **EMA oscillator for TradingView** simplifies **multi-EMA trading strategies** by showing alignment strength in one place.
It works great for **swing traders**, **scalpers**, and **trend-following systems**.
---
### 🧪 **Best Practices for Use**
- Works on **all TradingView timeframes** (1m, 5m, 1h, 1D, etc.)
- Suitable for **stocks, forex, crypto, and indices**
- Combine with **RSI**, **MACD**, or **price action** confirmation
- Excellent for detecting **EMA compression zones**, **trend continuation**, or **momentum shifts**
- Can be used as part of a **multi-EMA trading strategy** or **trend strength indicator setup**
---
### 💡 **Why It Stands Out**
- 100% built in **Pine Script v6**
- Optimized for **smooth EMA transitions**
- Simple color-coded momentum visualization
- Professional-grade **multi-timeframe trend oscillator**
This is one of the most **lightweight and powerful EMA oscillators** available for TradingView users who prefer clarity over clutter.

DM Price ActionHere’s a tight, rules-based playbook for trading with your DM Price Action (FVG + S/R + Order Blocks + VWAP + Auto PDH/PDL/PMH/PML). It’s educational, not financial advice—tune to your market & risk.
Core ideas (what each tool does for you)
VWAP → intraday trend/mean.
PDH/PDL → yesterday’s extremes; magnet & reversal/continuation levels.
PMH/PML → premarket extremes; first liquidity tests after the open.
FVG → imbalance zones for continuation entries.
Order Blocks (OBs) → origin of impulses; mitigation/breaks = structure shifts.
S/R → target rails and break alerts.
Setups (long/short mirror)
1) Bias + Pullback (FVG/OB) at Key Level
Bias (need 2+ conditions):
Price above VWAP (bulls) / below VWAP (bears)
Price above PDH/PMH (bulls) or below PDL/PML (bears)
Most recent Swing OB bias in your direction (script updates via crosses)
Entry (bullish example):
Wait for a Bullish FVG to form after we reclaim PMH or PDH.
Prefer FVG overlapping a Bullish OB or sitting just above Support.
Enter on retrace into FVG midline or first bullish reversal candle inside.
Stop: a few ticks below OB low (or FVG bottom, whichever is wider).
Targets:
T1: nearest Resistance or PDH/PMH if not yet tested.
T2: next HTF S/R or fixed 2R–3R.
Manage: to BE at 1R, trail under swing lows or VWAP on trend days.
Bearish mirror: below VWAP, below PDL/PML, Bearish FVG into Bearish OB / Resistance; stop above OB high.
2) Range Break & Retest at PDH/PDL (with OB confirmation)
Context: Price consolidates under PDH (or over PDL).
Trigger: Clean break of PDH/PDL with an OB breakout alert in the break direction.
Entry: On retest of PDH/PDL from the other side, look for a small FVG forming with the move → enter on the pullback.
Stop: beyond the retest wick or the OB edge.
Targets: next S/R, opposing day extreme (e.g., from PDH to PMH/HTF level) or 2R/3R.
3) Premarket Sweep Reversal (open-specific)
Setup: At/near the cash open, price sweeps PMH/PML (wick through) but closes back inside, then a counter-direction OB forms.
Entry: On first FVG in the reversal direction that overlaps that new OB.
Stop: beyond the sweep extreme (PMH/PML).
Targets: VWAP first, then PD midline levels/SR.
Confluence checklist (score ≥3 before clicking)
+1 Above/below VWAP in trade direction
+1 Trading from a PDH/PDL/PMH/PML reaction (reclaim or rejection)
+1 FVG overlaps an OB
+1 Entry at S/R (use the script’s lines)
+1 Fresh zone (recently formed OB/FVG)
+1 Higher-TF structure aligned (e.g., 1H trend)
Take the trade only if score ≥3; size up only at ≥4.
Execution framework (simple & repeatable)
Timeframes: 1H (bias) → 5–15m (execution).
Risk per trade: 0.25–1.0% of account (fixed).
Position size: Size = Risk $ / Stop distance.
Management:
Scale ½ at T1 (nearest SR/PD level), move stop to BE at 1R.
Let runner to T2 (2R–3R) or next PD level.
If VWAP flips against you and closes 2 bars opposite, exit remainder.
Using the inputs (what to tweak)
Order Blocks:
Scalping mode for intraday speed; Day Trade for cleaner swings.
Hide Internal OBs if noise is high; keep Swing OBs for structure.
FVG:
Keep Auto Threshold = ON.
If noisy, plot higher TF FVG (e.g., 15m FVG on 5m chart).
PDH/PDL/PMH/PML:
If chart is cluttered, keep “Show lines only on last bar” ON and labels ON.
Session markets (futures/US equities): use default 0400–0930 premarket; FX/crypto can disable PM lines if irrelevant.
Alerts to set (so you only act on confluence)
Create alerts for:
Bullish/Bearish FVG (execution zones)
Swing/Internal OB Breakout (structure shift)
Support/Resistance Broken (targets/continuation)
(Optional) Crossing PDH/PDL: use TV “Price crossing” with the plotted PDH/PDL values or visually monitor the labels
Workflow: Wait for ≥2 alerts to line up (e.g., Swing OB Breakout + Bullish FVG near PDH), then open the chart and execute the rule set.
Example trade (bullish)
Price reclaims PDH, holds above VWAP.
Bullish FVG prints overlapping a Bullish Internal OB just above PDH.
Limit at FVG midline, stop below OB low.
T1 = next Resistance; T2 = 2R. Move to BE at 1R; trail under new swing lows.
Smart MACD Volume Trader# Smart MACD Volume Trader
## Overview
Smart MACD Volume Trader is an enhanced momentum indicator that combines the classic MACD (Moving Average Convergence Divergence) oscillator with an intelligent high-volume filter. This combination significantly reduces false signals by ensuring that trading signals are only generated when price momentum is confirmed by substantial volume activity.
The indicator supports over 24 different instruments including major and exotic forex pairs, precious metals (gold and silver), energy commodities (crude oil, natural gas), and industrial metals (copper). For forex and commodity traders, the indicator automatically maps to CME and COMEX futures contracts to provide accurate institutional-grade volume data.
## Originality and Core Concept
Traditional MACD indicators generate signals based solely on price momentum, which can result in numerous false signals during low-activity periods or ranging markets. This indicator addresses this critical weakness by introducing a volume confirmation layer with automatic institutional volume integration.
**What makes this approach original:**
- Signals are triggered only when MACD crossovers coincide with elevated volume activity
- Implements a lookback mechanism to detect volume spikes within recent bars
- Automatically detects and maps 24+ forex pairs and commodities to their corresponding CME and COMEX futures contracts
- Provides real institutional volume data for forex pairs where spot volume is unreliable
- Combines two independent market dimensions (price momentum and volume) into a single, actionable signal
- Includes intelligent asset detection that works across multiple exchanges and ticker formats
**The underlying principle:** Volume validates price movement. When institutional money enters the market, it creates volume signatures. By requiring high volume confirmation and using actual institutional volume data from futures markets, this indicator filters out weak price movements and focuses on trades backed by genuine market participation. The automatic futures mapping ensures that forex and commodity traders always have access to the most accurate volume data available, without manual configuration.
## How It Works
### MACD Component
The indicator calculates MACD using standard methodology:
1. **Fast EMA (default: 12 periods)** - Tracks short-term price momentum
2. **Slow EMA (default: 26 periods)** - Tracks longer-term price momentum
3. **MACD Line** - Difference between Fast EMA and Slow EMA
4. **Signal Line (default: 9-period SMA)** - Smoothed average of MACD line
**Crossover signals:**
- **Bullish:** MACD line crosses above Signal line (momentum turning positive)
- **Bearish:** MACD line crosses below Signal line (momentum turning negative)
### Volume Filter Component
The volume filter adds an essential confirmation layer:
1. **Volume Moving Average** - Calculates exponential MA of volume (default: 20 periods)
2. **High Volume Threshold** - Multiplies MA by ratio (default: 2.0x or 200%)
3. **Volume Detection** - Identifies bars where current volume exceeds threshold
4. **Lookback Period** - Checks if high volume occurred in recent bars (default: 5 bars)
**Signal logic:**
- Buy/Sell signals only trigger when BOTH conditions are met:
- MACD crossover/crossunder occurs
- High volume detected within lookback period
### Automatic CME Futures Integration
For forex traders, spot FX volume data can be unreliable or non-existent. This indicator solves this problem by automatically detecting forex pairs and mapping them to corresponding CME futures contracts with real institutional volume data.
**Supported Major Forex Pairs (7):**
- EURUSD → CME:6E1! (Euro FX Futures)
- GBPUSD → CME:6B1! (British Pound Futures)
- AUDUSD → CME:6A1! (Australian Dollar Futures)
- USDJPY → CME:6J1! (Japanese Yen Futures)
- USDCAD → CME:6C1! (Canadian Dollar Futures)
- USDCHF → CME:6S1! (Swiss Franc Futures)
- NZDUSD → CME:6N1! (New Zealand Dollar Futures)
**Supported Exotic Forex Pairs (4):**
- USDMXN → CME:6M1! (Mexican Peso Futures)
- USDRUB → CME:6R1! (Russian Ruble Futures)
- USDBRL → CME:6L1! (Brazilian Real Futures)
- USDZAR → CME:6Z1! (South African Rand Futures)
**Supported Cross Pairs (6):**
- EURJPY → CME:6E1! (Uses Euro Futures)
- GBPJPY → CME:6B1! (Uses British Pound Futures)
- EURGBP → CME:6E1! (Uses Euro Futures)
- AUDJPY → CME:6A1! (Uses Australian Dollar Futures)
- EURAUD → CME:6E1! (Uses Euro Futures)
- GBPAUD → CME:6B1! (Uses British Pound Futures)
**Supported Precious Metals (2):**
- Gold (XAUUSD, GOLD) → COMEX:GC1! (Gold Futures)
- Silver (XAGUSD, SILVER) → COMEX:SI1! (Silver Futures)
**Supported Energy Commodities (3):**
- WTI Crude Oil (USOIL, WTIUSD) → NYMEX:CL1! (Crude Oil Futures)
- Brent Oil (UKOIL) → NYMEX:BZ1! (Brent Crude Futures)
- Natural Gas (NATGAS) → NYMEX:NG1! (Natural Gas Futures)
**Supported Industrial Metals (1):**
- Copper (COPPER) → COMEX:HG1! (Copper Futures)
**How the automatic detection works:**
The indicator intelligently identifies the asset type by analyzing:
1. Exchange name (FX, OANDA, TVC, COMEX, NYMEX, etc.)
2. Currency pair pattern (6-letter codes like EURUSD, GBPUSD)
3. Commodity identifiers (XAU for gold, XAG for silver, OIL for crude)
When a supported instrument is detected, the indicator automatically switches to the corresponding futures contract for volume analysis. For stocks, cryptocurrencies, and other assets, the indicator uses the native volume data from the current chart.
**Visual feedback:**
An information table appears in the top-right corner of the MACD pane showing:
- Current chart symbol
- Exchange name
- Currency pair or asset name
- Volume source being used (highlighted in orange for futures, yellow for native volume)
- Current high volume status
This provides complete transparency about which data source the indicator is using for its volume analysis.
## How to Use
### Basic Setup
1. Add the indicator to your chart
2. The indicator displays in a separate pane (MACD) and overlay (signals/volume bars)
3. Default settings work well for most assets, but can be customized
### Signal Interpretation
### Visual Signals
**Visual Signals:**
- **Green "BUY" label** - Bullish MACD crossover confirmed by high volume
- **Red "SELL" label** - Bearish MACD crossunder confirmed by high volume
- **Green/Red candles** - Highlight bars with volume exceeding the threshold
- **Light green/red background** - Emphasizes signal bars on the chart
**Information Table:**
A detailed information table appears in the top-right corner of the MACD pane, providing real-time transparency about the indicator's operation:
- **Chart:** Current symbol being analyzed
- **Exchange:** The exchange or data feed being used
- **Pair:** The currency pair or asset name extracted from the ticker
- **Volume From:** The actual symbol used for volume analysis
- Orange color indicates CME or COMEX futures are being used (automatic institutional volume)
- Yellow color indicates native volume from the chart symbol is being used
- Hover tooltip shows whether automatic futures mapping is active
- **High Volume:** Current status showing YES (green) when volume exceeds threshold, NO (gray) otherwise
This table ensures complete transparency and allows you to verify that the correct volume source is being used for your analysis.
**Volume Analysis:**
- Gray histogram bars = Normal volume
- Red histogram bars = High volume (exceeds threshold)
- Green line = Volume moving average baseline
**MACD Analysis:**
- Blue line = MACD line (momentum indicator)
- Orange line = Signal line (trend confirmation)
- Gray dotted line = Zero line (bullish above, bearish below)
### Parameter Customization
**MACD Parameters:**
- Adjust Fast/Slow EMA lengths for different sensitivities
- Shorter periods = More signals, faster response
- Longer periods = Fewer signals, less noise
**Volume Parameters:**
- **Volume MA Period:** Higher values smooth volume analysis
- **High Volume Ratio:** Lower values (1.5x) = More signals; Higher values (3.0x) = Fewer, stronger signals
- **Volume Lookback Bars:** Controls how recent the volume spike must be
**Direction Filters:**
- **Only Buy Signals:** Enables long-only strategy mode
- **Only Sell Signals:** Enables short-only strategy mode
### Alert Configuration
The indicator includes three alert types:
1. **Buy Signal Alert** - Triggers when bullish signal appears
2. **Sell Signal Alert** - Triggers when bearish signal appears
3. **High Volume Alert** - Triggers when volume exceeds threshold
To set up alerts:
1. Click the indicator name → "Add alert on Smart MACD Volume Trader"
2. Select desired alert condition
3. Configure notification method (popup, email, webhook, etc.)
## Trading Strategy Guidelines
### Best Practices
**Recommended markets:**
- Liquid stocks (large-cap, high daily volume)
- Major forex pairs (EURUSD, GBPUSD, USDJPY, AUDUSD, USDCAD, USDCHF, NZDUSD)
- Exotic forex pairs (USDMXN, USDRUB, USDBRL, USDZAR)
- Cross pairs (EURJPY, GBPJPY, EURGBP, AUDJPY, EURAUD, GBPAUD)
- Precious metals (Gold, Silver with automatic COMEX futures mapping)
- Energy commodities (Crude Oil, Natural Gas with automatic NYMEX futures mapping)
- Industrial metals (Copper with automatic COMEX futures mapping)
- Major cryptocurrency pairs
- Index futures and ETFs
**Timeframe recommendations:**
- **Day trading:** 5-minute to 15-minute charts
- **Swing trading:** 1-hour to 4-hour charts
- **Position trading:** Daily charts
**Risk management:**
- Use signals as entry confirmation, not standalone strategy
- Combine with support/resistance levels
- Consider overall market trend direction
- Always use stop-loss orders
### Strategy Examples
**Trend Following Strategy:**
1. Identify overall trend using higher timeframe (e.g., daily chart)
2. Trade only in trend direction
3. Use "Only Buy" filter in uptrends, "Only Sell" in downtrends
4. Enter on signal, exit on opposite signal or at resistance/support
**Volume Breakout Strategy:**
1. Wait for consolidation period (low volume, tight MACD range)
2. Enter when signal appears with high volume (confirms breakout)
3. Target previous swing highs/lows
4. Stop loss below/above recent consolidation
**Forex Scalping Strategy (with automatic CME futures):**
1. The indicator automatically detects forex pairs and uses CME futures volume
2. Trade during active sessions only (use session filter)
3. Focus on quick profits (10-20 pips)
4. Exit at opposite signal or profit target
**Commodities Trading Strategy (Gold, Silver, Oil):**
1. The indicator automatically maps to COMEX and NYMEX futures contracts
2. Trade during high-liquidity sessions (overlap of major markets)
3. Use the high volume confirmation to identify institutional entry points
4. Combine with key support and resistance levels for entries
5. Monitor the information table to confirm futures volume is being used (orange color)
6. Exit on opposite MACD signal or at predefined profit targets
## Why This Combination Works
### The Volume Advantage
Studies consistently show that price movements accompanied by high volume are more likely to continue, while low-volume movements often reverse. This indicator leverages this principle by requiring volume confirmation.
**Key benefits:**
1. **Reduced False Signals:** Eliminates MACD whipsaws during low-volume consolidation
2. **Confirmation Bias:** Two independent indicators (price momentum + volume) agreeing
3. **Institutional Alignment:** High volume often indicates institutional participation
4. **Trend Validation:** Volume confirms that price momentum has "conviction"
### Statistical Edge
By combining two uncorrelated signals (MACD crossovers and volume spikes), the indicator creates a higher-probability setup than either signal alone. The lookback mechanism ensures signals aren't missed if volume spike slightly precedes the MACD cross.
## Supported Exchanges and Automatic Detection
The indicator includes intelligent asset detection that works across multiple exchanges and ticker formats:
**Forex Exchanges (Automatic CME Mapping):**
- FX (TradingView forex feed)
- OANDA
- FXCM
- SAXO
- FOREXCOM
- PEPPERSTONE
- EASYMARKETS
- FX_IDC
**Commodity Exchanges (Automatic COMEX/NYMEX Mapping):**
- TVC (TradingView commodity feed)
- COMEX (directly)
- NYMEX (directly)
- ICEUS
**Other Asset Classes (Native Volume):**
- Stock exchanges (NASDAQ, NYSE, AMEX, etc.)
- Cryptocurrency exchanges (BINANCE, COINBASE, KRAKEN, etc.)
- Index providers (SP, DJ, etc.)
The detection algorithm analyzes three factors:
1. Exchange prefix in the ticker symbol
2. Pattern matching for currency pairs (6-letter codes)
3. Commodity identifiers in the symbol name
This ensures accurate automatic detection regardless of which data feed or exchange you use for charting. The information table in the top-right corner always displays which volume source is being used, providing complete transparency.
## Technical Details
**Calculations:**
- MACD Fast MA: EMA(close, fastLength)
- MACD Slow MA: EMA(close, slowLength)
- MACD Line: Fast MA - Slow MA
- Signal Line: SMA(MACD Line, signalLength)
- Volume MA: Exponential MA of volume
- High Volume: Current volume >= Volume MA × Ratio
**Signal logic:**
```
Buy Signal = (MACD crosses above Signal) AND (High volume in last N bars)
Sell Signal = (MACD crosses below Signal) AND (High volume in last N bars)
```

**For stable markets (large-cap stocks, bonds):**
- Decrease High Volume Ratio to 1.5-1.8
- Increase Volume MA Period to 30-50
- Use standard MACD settings
**For forex (with automatic CME futures):**
- The indicator automatically uses CME futures when forex pairs are detected
- Set appropriate trading session based on your timezone
- Use Volume Lookback of 5-7 bars
- Consider session-based alerts only
- Monitor the information table to verify correct futures mapping
**For commodities (Gold, Silver, Oil, Copper):**
- The indicator automatically maps to COMEX and NYMEX futures
- Increase High Volume Ratio to 2.0-2.5 for metals
- Use slightly higher Volume MA Period (25-30) for smoother analysis
- Trade during active market hours for best volume data
- The information table will show the futures contract being used (orange highlight)
## Limitations and Considerations
**What this indicator does NOT do:**
- Does not predict future price direction
- Does not guarantee profitable trades
- Does not replace proper risk management
- Does not work well in extremely low-volume conditions
**Market conditions to avoid:**
- Pre-market and after-hours sessions (low volume)
- Major news events (volatile, unpredictable volume)
- Holidays and low-liquidity periods
- Extremely low float stocks
## Conclusion

• Look for alignment (multiple timeframes same direction)
• Higher timeframes generally more significant
Strength Indicator:
• >66.67%: Strong bullish (4+ timeframes bullish)
• 33.33-66.67%: Mixed/choppy conditions
• <33.33%: Strong bearish (4+ timeframes bearish)
Quality Score:
• Higher stars = better confluence of factors
• 5-star setups have strongest multi-factor confirmation
• Lower scores may indicate weaker or conflicting signals
SUGGESTED APPLICATIONS
Trend Confirmation:
• Check if multiple timeframes confirm current chart trend

EDUCATIONAL BACKGROUND
═══════════════════════════════════════════════════════════
EMA CROSSOVER STRATEGY
The Exponential Moving Average crossover is a classical trend-following technique:
• Golden Cross: Fast EMA crosses above Slow EMA (bullish signal)
• Death Cross: Fast EMA crosses below Slow EMA (bearish signal)
• Widely used since the 1970s in various markets
• More responsive than SMA due to exponential weighting
MULTI-TIMEFRAME ANALYSIS
Analyzing multiple timeframes helps traders:
• Identify alignment between short and long-term trends
• Reduce false signals from single-timeframe noise
• Understand market context across different horizons
• Make informed decisions about trade duration
VOLUME ANALYSIS
Volume confirmation adds reliability:
• High volume suggests institutional participation
• Low volume signals may indicate false breakouts
• Volume precedes price in many market theories
• Helps distinguish genuine moves from noise

Adaptive Pulse Frequency & Amplitude TrendAdaptive Pulse Frequency & Amplitude Trend Indicator
This Pine Script indicator is designed to identify strong bullish or bearish trends by analyzing volume dynamics on a lower timeframe than the one currently displayed on the chart. It operates on the principle of detecting significant spikes in buying or selling pressure, referred to as "pulses," and then evaluating their frequency, strength, and dominance over the opposing market forces.
Core Concepts
Lower Timeframe Volume Analysis: The script requests up-volume and down-volume data from a more granular, lower timeframe (e.g., 1-minute data when on a 15-minute chart). This provides a higher-resolution view of the flow of buy and sell orders.
Adaptive Pulse Detection: A "pulse" is defined as a bar with an unusually high net volume (up volume minus down volume). Instead of using a fixed value, the indicator calculates an adaptive threshold based on the 90th percentile of net volume over a 100-bar lookback period. Any bar with a net volume exceeding this dynamic threshold is flagged as a pulse, categorized as either bullish (positive net volume) or bearish (negative net volume).
Frequency and Amplitude: The indicator measures two key aspects of these pulses over user-defined lookback periods:
Net Frequency: The number of bullish pulses minus the number of bearish pulses. A positive value indicates more buying pulses, while a negative value indicates more selling pulses.
Net Amplitude : The cumulative volume of bullish pulses minus the cumulative volume of bearish pulses. This measures the overall strength and conviction behind the pulses.
Primary Trend Signal
The indicator's primary signal comes from a strict dominance condition. It doesn't just look for more buying or selling pulses; it checks if these pulses are powerful enough to overwhelm the total opposite pressure in the market.
Bullish Dominance (Green Background): A strong bullish signal is generated when the total volume of all bullish pulses within a lookback period is greater than the total down-volume from all bars (not just pulses) in that same period.
Bearish Dominance (Red Background): A strong bearish signal is generated when the total volume of all bearish pulses is greater than the total up-volume from all bars in that period.
The chart background is colored green for bullish dominance and red for bearish dominance, providing a clear visual cue for when one side has taken decisive control.
Plotted Data
In addition to the background coloring, the indicator plots several lines in its own pane for more detailed analysis:
Net Frequency: Shows the trend in the number of bull vs. bear pulses.
Net Amplitude: Shows the trend in the strength of bull vs. bear pulses.
Bullish/Bearish Amplitude: The individual cumulative volumes for bull and bear pulses.
Dynamic Threshold: The adaptive value used to identify pulses.
By combining an adaptive detection method with a strict dominance condition, this tool aims to filter out market noise and highlight periods of genuinely strong, volume-backed trends.

Z-Score Momentum | MisinkoMasterThe Z-Score Momentum is a new trend analysis indicator designed to catch reversals, and shifts in trends by comparing the "positive" and "negative" momentum by using the Z-Score.
This approach helps traders and investors get unique insight into the market of not just Crypto, but any market.
A deeper dive into the indicator
First, I want to cover the "Why?", as I believe it will ease of the part of the calculation to make it easier to understand, as by then you will understand how it fits the puzzle.
I had an attempt to create a momentum oscillator that would catch reversals and provide high tier accuracy while maintaining the main part => the speed.
I thought back to many concepts, divergences between averages?
- Did not work
Maybe a MACD rework?
- Did not work with what I tried :(
So I thought about statistics, Standard Deviation, Z-Score, Sharpe/Sortino/Omega ratio...
Wait, was that the Z-Score? I only tried the For Loop version of it :O
So on my way back from school I formulated a concept (originaly not like this but to that later) that would attempt to use the Z-Score as an accurate momentum oscillator.
Many ideas were falling out of the blue, but not many worked.
After almost giving up on this, and going to go back to developing my strategies, I tried one last thing:
What if we use divergences in the average, formulated like a Z-score?
Surprise-surprise, it worked!
Now to explain what I have been so passionately yapping about, and to connect the pieces of the puzzle once and for all:
The indicator compares the "strength" of the bullish/bearish factors (could be said differently, but this is my "speach bubble", and I think this describes it the best)
What could we use for the "bullish/bearish" factors?
How about high & low?
I mean, these are by definitions the highest and lowest points in price, which I decided to interpret as: The highest the bull & bear "factors" achieved that bar.
The problem here is comparison, I mean high will ALWAYS > low, unless the asset decided to unplug itself and stop moving, but otherwise that would be unfair.
Now if I use my Z-score, it will get higher while low is going up, which is the opposite of what I want, the bearish "factor" is weaker while we go up!
So I sat on my ret*rded a*s for 25 minutes, completly ignoring the fact the number "-1" exists.
Surprise surprise, multiplying the Z-Score of the low by -1 did what I wanted!
Now it reversed itself (magically). Now while the low keeps going down, the bear factor increases, and while it goes up the bear factor lowers.
This was btw still too noisy, so instead of the classic formula:
a = current value
b = average value
c = standard deviation of a
Z = (a-b)/c
I used:
a = average value over n/2 period
b = average value over n period
c = standard deviation of a
Z = (a-b)/c
And then compared the Z-Score of High to the Z-Score of Low by basic subtraction, which gives us final result and shows us the strength of trend, the direction of the trend, and possibly more, which I may have not found.
As always, this script is open source, so make sure to play around with it, you may uncover the treasure that I did not :)
Enjoy Gs!

Understanding the Zones
Supply Zones (Red):
Created from bearish patterns (Tweezer Tops, Kangaroo Bears). Price made a high attempt to push higher, but was rejected. These become resistance areas where sellers may step in again.
Demand Zones (Green):
Created from bullish patterns (Tweezer Bottoms, Kangaroo Bulls). Price made a low with strong rejection. These become support areas where buyers may step in again.
Zone Quality Indicators:
• White border = Fresh zone, not tested yet
• Gray border = Zone expired or invalidated
• Thin zones (tight range) = Better risk/reward ratio
• Thick zones = Less precise, wider stop required
Trading Applications
Reversal Trading - Enter at pattern detection with tight stops
Zone Retest Trading - Wait for retests of established zones
Trend Confluence - Trade only when patterns align with trend
Risk Management - Use zone boundaries for stop placement
Target Setting - Opposite zones become profit targets
Pro Tips
Best signals occur when pattern + zone retest + trend all align
Lower timeframes = more signals but more noise
Higher timeframes = fewer but more reliable signals
Start with default settings, adjust based on your market
Combine with other analysis (structure, key levels, etc.)
Use alerts to avoid staring at charts all day
Important Notes
Not all patterns will lead to successful trades
Use proper risk management and position sizing
Patterns work best in trending or range-bound markets
Very choppy conditions may produce lower-quality signals
Always confirm with your own analysis before trading

RSI Bollinger Bands [DCAUT]█ RSI Bollinger Bands
📊 ORIGINALITY & INNOVATION
The RSI Bollinger Bands indicator represents a meaningful advancement in momentum analysis by combining two proven technical tools: the Relative Strength Index (RSI) and Bollinger Bands. This combination addresses a significant limitation in traditional RSI analysis - the use of fixed overbought/oversold thresholds (typically 70/30) that fail to adapt to changing market volatility conditions.
Core Innovation:
Rather than relying on static threshold levels, this indicator applies Bollinger Bands statistical analysis directly to RSI values, creating dynamic zones that automatically adjust based on recent momentum volatility. This approach helps reduce false signals during low volatility periods while remaining sensitive to genuine extremes during high volatility conditions.
Key Enhancements Over Traditional RSI:
Dynamic Thresholds: Overbought/oversold zones adapt to market conditions automatically, eliminating the need for manual threshold adjustments across different instruments and timeframes
Volatility Context: Band width provides immediate visual feedback about momentum volatility, helping traders distinguish between stable trends and erratic movements
Reduced False Signals: During ranging markets, narrower bands filter out minor RSI fluctuations that would trigger traditional fixed-threshold signals
Breakout Preparation: Band squeeze patterns (similar to price-based BB) signal potential momentum regime changes before they occur
Self-Referencing Analysis: By measuring RSI against its own statistical behavior rather than arbitrary levels, the indicator provides more relevant context
📐 MATHEMATICAL FOUNDATION
Two-Stage Calculation Process:
Stage 1: RSI Calculation
RSI = 100 - (100 / (1 + RS))
where RS = Average Gain / Average Loss over specified period
The RSI normalizes price momentum into a bounded 0-100 scale, making it ideal for statistical band analysis.
Stage 2: Bollinger Bands on RSI
Basis = MA(RSI, BB Length)
Upper Band = Basis + (StdDev(RSI, BB Length) × Multiplier)
Lower Band = Basis - (StdDev(RSI, BB Length) × Multiplier)
Band Width = Upper Band - Lower Band
The Bollinger Bands measure RSI's standard deviation from its own moving average, creating statistically-derived dynamic zones.
Statistical Interpretation:
Under normal distribution assumptions with default 2.0 multiplier, approximately 95% of RSI values should fall within the bands
Band touches represent statistically significant momentum extremes relative to recent behavior
Band width expansion indicates increasing momentum volatility (strengthening trend or increasing uncertainty)
Band width contraction signals momentum consolidation and potential regime change preparation
📊 COMPREHENSIVE SIGNAL ANALYSIS
Visual Color Signals:
This indicator features dynamic color fills that highlight extreme momentum conditions:
Green Fill (Above Upper Band):
Appears when RSI breaks above the upper band, indicating exceptionally strong bullish momentum
Represents dynamic overbought zone - not necessarily a reversal signal but a warning of extreme conditions
In strong uptrends, green fills can persist as RSI "rides the band" - this indicates sustained momentum strength
Exit of green zone (RSI falling back below upper band) often signals initial momentum weakening
Red Fill (Below Lower Band):
Appears when RSI breaks below the lower band, indicating exceptionally weak bearish momentum
Represents dynamic oversold zone - potential reversal or continuation signal depending on trend context
In strong downtrends, red fills can persist as RSI "rides the band" - this indicates sustained selling pressure
Exit of red zone (RSI rising back above lower band) often signals initial momentum recovery
Position-Based Signals:
Upper Band Interactions:
RSI Touching Upper Band: Dynamic overbought condition - momentum is extremely strong relative to recent volatility, potential exhaustion or continuation depending on trend context
RSI Riding Upper Band: Sustained strong momentum, often seen in powerful trends, not necessarily an immediate reversal signal but warrants monitoring for exhaustion
RSI Crossing Below Upper Band: Initial momentum weakening signal, particularly significant if accompanied by price divergence
Lower Band Interactions:
RSI Touching Lower Band: Dynamic oversold condition - momentum is extremely weak relative to recent volatility, potential reversal or continuation of downtrend
RSI Riding Lower Band: Sustained weak momentum, common in strong downtrends, monitor for potential exhaustion
RSI Crossing Above Lower Band: Initial momentum strengthening signal, early indication of potential reversal or consolidation
Basis Line Signals:
RSI Above Basis: Bullish momentum regime - upward pressure dominant
RSI Below Basis: Bearish momentum regime - downward pressure dominant
Basis Crossovers: Momentum regime shifts, more significant when accompanied by band width changes
RSI Oscillating Around Basis: Balanced momentum, often indicates ranging market conditions
Volatility-Based Signals:
Band Width Patterns:
Narrow Bands (Squeeze): Momentum volatility compression, often precedes significant directional moves, similar to price coiling patterns
Expanding Bands: Increasing momentum volatility, indicates trend acceleration or growing uncertainty
Narrowest Band in 100 Bars: Extreme compression alert, high probability of upcoming volatility expansion
Advanced Pattern Recognition:
Divergence Analysis:
Bullish Divergence: Price makes lower lows while RSI touches or stays above previous lower band touch, suggests downward momentum weakening
Bearish Divergence: Price makes higher highs while RSI touches or stays below previous upper band touch, suggests upward momentum weakening
Hidden Bullish: Price makes higher lows while RSI makes lower lows at the lower band, indicates strong underlying bullish momentum
Hidden Bearish: Price makes lower highs while RSI makes higher highs at the upper band, indicates strong underlying bearish momentum
Band Walk Patterns:
Upper Band Walk: RSI consistently touching or staying near upper band indicates exceptionally strong trend, wait for clear break below basis before considering reversal
Lower Band Walk: RSI consistently at lower band signals very weak momentum, requires break above basis for reversal confirmation
🎯 STRATEGIC APPLICATIONS
Strategy 1: Mean Reversion Trading
Setup Conditions:
Market Type: Ranging or choppy markets with no clear directional trend
Timeframe: Works best on lower timeframes (5m-1H) or during consolidation phases
Band Characteristic: Normal to narrow band width
Entry Rules:
Long Entry: RSI touches or crosses below lower band, wait for RSI to start rising back toward basis before entry
Short Entry: RSI touches or crosses above upper band, wait for RSI to start falling back toward basis before entry
Confirmation: Use price action confirmation (candlestick reversal patterns) at band touches
Exit Rules:
Target: RSI returns to basis line or opposite band
Stop Loss: Fixed percentage or below recent swing low/high
Time Stop: Exit if position not profitable within expected timeframe
Strategy 2: Trend Continuation Trading
Setup Conditions:
Market Type: Clear trending market with higher highs/lower lows
Timeframe: Medium to higher timeframes (1H-Daily)
Band Characteristic: Expanding or wide bands indicating strong momentum
Entry Rules:
Long Entry in Uptrend: Wait for RSI to pull back to basis line or slightly below, enter when RSI starts rising again
Short Entry in Downtrend: Wait for RSI to rally to basis line or slightly above, enter when RSI starts falling again
Avoid Counter-Trend: Do not fade RSI at bands during strong trends (band walk patterns)
Exit Rules:
Trailing Stop: Move stop to break-even when RSI reaches opposite band
Trend Break: Exit when RSI crosses basis against trend direction with conviction
Band Squeeze: Reduce position size when bands start narrowing significantly
Strategy 3: Breakout Preparation
Setup Conditions:
Market Type: Consolidating market after significant move or at key technical levels
Timeframe: Any timeframe, but longer timeframes provide more reliable breakouts
Band Characteristic: Narrowest band width in recent 100 bars (squeeze alert)
Preparation Phase:
Identify band squeeze condition (bands at multi-period narrowest point)
Monitor price action for consolidation patterns (triangles, rectangles, flags)
Prepare bracket orders for both directions
Wait for band expansion to begin
Entry Execution:
Breakout Confirmation: Enter in direction of RSI band breakout (RSI breaks above upper band or below lower band)
Price Confirmation: Ensure price also breaks corresponding technical level
Volume Confirmation: Look for volume expansion supporting the breakout
Risk Management:
Stop Loss: Place beyond consolidation pattern opposite extreme
Position Sizing: Use smaller size due to false breakout risk
Quick Exit: Exit immediately if RSI returns inside bands within 1-3 bars
Strategy 4: Multi-Timeframe Analysis
Timeframe Selection:
Higher Timeframe: Daily or 4H for trend context
Trading Timeframe: 1H or 15m for entry signals
Confirmation Timeframe: 5m or 1m for precise entry timing
Analysis Process:
Trend Identification: Check higher timeframe RSI position relative to bands, trade only in direction of higher timeframe momentum
Setup Formation: Wait for trading timeframe RSI to show pullback to basis in trending direction
Entry Timing: Use confirmation timeframe RSI band touch or crossover for precise entry
Alignment Confirmation: All timeframes should show RSI moving in same direction for highest probability setups
📋 DETAILED PARAMETER CONFIGURATION
RSI Source:
Close (Default): Standard price point, balances responsiveness and reliability
HL2: Reduces noise from intrabar volatility, provides smoother RSI values
HLC3 or OHLC4: Further smoothing for very choppy markets, slower to respond but more stable
Volume-Weighted: Consider using VWAP or volume-weighted prices for additional liquidity context
RSI Length Parameter:
Shorter Periods (5-10): More responsive but generates more signals, suitable for scalping or very active trading, higher noise level
Standard (14): Default and most widely used setting, proven balance between responsiveness and reliability, recommended starting point
Longer Periods (21-30): Smoother momentum measurement, fewer but potentially more reliable signals, better for swing trading or position trading
Optimization Note: Test across different market regimes, optimal length often varies by instrument volatility characteristics
RSI MA Type Parameter:
RMA (Default): Wilder's original smoothing method, provides traditional RSI behavior with balanced lag, most widely recognized and tested, recommended for standard technical analysis
EMA: Exponential smoothing gives more weight to recent values, faster response to momentum changes, suitable for active trading and trending markets, reduces lag compared to RMA
SMA: Simple average treats all periods equally, smoothest output with highest lag, best for filtering noise in choppy markets, useful for long-term position analysis
WMA: Weighted average emphasizes recent data less aggressively than EMA, middle ground between SMA and EMA characteristics, balanced responsiveness for swing trading
Advanced Options: Full access to 25+ moving average types including HMA (reduced lag), DEMA/TEMA (enhanced responsiveness), KAMA/FRAMA (adaptive behavior), T3 (smoothness), Kalman Filter (optimal estimation)
Selection Guide: RMA for traditional analysis and backtesting consistency, EMA for faster signals in trending markets, SMA for stability in ranging markets, adaptive types (KAMA/FRAMA) for varying volatility regimes
BB Length Parameter:
Short Length (10-15): Tighter bands that react quickly to RSI changes, more frequent band touches, suitable for active trading styles
Standard (20): Balanced approach providing meaningful statistical context without excessive lag
Long Length (30-50): Smoother bands that filter minor RSI fluctuations, captures only significant momentum extremes, fewer but higher quality signals
Relationship to RSI Length: Consider BB Length greater than RSI Length for cleaner signals
BB MA Type Parameter:
SMA (Default): Standard Bollinger Bands calculation using simple moving average for basis line, treats all periods equally, widely recognized and tested approach
EMA: Exponential smoothing for basis line gives more weight to recent RSI values, creates more responsive bands that adapt faster to momentum changes, suitable for trending markets
RMA: Wilder's smoothing provides consistent behavior aligned with traditional RSI when using RMA for both RSI and BB calculations
WMA: Weighted average for basis line balances recent emphasis with historical context, middle ground between SMA and EMA responsiveness
Advanced Options: Full access to 25+ moving average types for basis calculation, including HMA (reduced lag), DEMA/TEMA (enhanced responsiveness), KAMA/FRAMA (adaptive to volatility changes)
Selection Guide: SMA for standard Bollinger Bands behavior and backtesting consistency, EMA for faster band adaptation in dynamic markets, matching RSI MA type creates unified smoothing behavior
BB Multiplier Parameter:
Conservative (1.5-1.8): Tighter bands resulting in more frequent touches, useful in low volatility environments, higher signal frequency but potentially more false signals
Standard (2.0): Default setting representing approximately 95% confidence interval under normal distribution, widely accepted statistical threshold
Aggressive (2.5-3.0): Wider bands capturing only extreme momentum conditions, fewer but potentially more significant signals, reduces false signals in high volatility
Adaptive Approach: Consider adjusting multiplier based on instrument characteristics, lower multiplier for stable instruments, higher for volatile instruments
Parameter Optimization Workflow:
Start with default parameters (RSI:14, BB:20, Mult:2.0)
Test across representative sample period including different market regimes
Adjust RSI length based on desired responsiveness vs stability tradeoff
Tune BB length to match your typical holding period
Modify multiplier to achieve desired signal frequency
Validate on out-of-sample data to avoid overfitting
Document optimal parameters for different instruments and timeframes
Reference Levels Display:
Enabled (Default): Shows traditional 30/50/70 levels for comparison with dynamic bands, helps visualize the adaptive advantage
Disabled: Cleaner chart focusing purely on dynamic zones, reduces visual clutter for experienced users
Educational Value: Keeping reference levels visible helps understand how dynamic bands differ from fixed thresholds across varying market conditions
📈 PERFORMANCE ANALYSIS & COMPETITIVE ADVANTAGES
Comparison with Traditional RSI:
Fixed Threshold RSI Limitations:
In ranging low-volatility markets: RSI rarely reaches 70/30, missing tradable extremes
In trending high-volatility markets: RSI frequently breaks through 70/30, generating excessive false reversal signals
Across different instruments: Same thresholds applied to volatile crypto and stable forex pairs produce inconsistent results
Threshold Adjustment Problem: Manually changing thresholds for different conditions is subjective and lagging
RSI Bollinger Bands Advantages:
Automatic Adaptation: Bands adjust to current volatility regime without manual intervention
Consistent Logic: Same statistical approach works across different instruments and timeframes
Reduced False Signals: Band width filtering helps distinguish meaningful extremes from noise
Additional Information: Band width provides volatility context missing in standard RSI
Objective Extremes: Statistical basis (standard deviations) provides objective extreme definition
Comparison with Price-Based Bollinger Bands:
Price BB Characteristics:
Measures absolute price volatility
Affected by large price gaps and outliers
Band position relative to price not normalized
Difficult to compare across different price scales
RSI BB Advantages:
Normalized Scale: RSI's 0-100 bounds make band interpretation consistent across all instruments
Momentum Focus: Directly measures momentum extremes rather than price extremes
Reduced Gap Impact: RSI calculation smooths price gaps impact on band calculations
Comparable Analysis: Same RSI BB appearance across stocks, forex, crypto enables consistent strategy application
Performance Characteristics:
Signal Quality:
Higher Signal-to-Noise Ratio: Dynamic bands help filter RSI oscillations that don't represent meaningful extremes
Context-Aware Alerts: Band width provides volatility context helping traders adjust position sizing and stop placement
Reduced Whipsaws: During consolidations, narrower bands prevent premature signals from minor RSI movements
Responsiveness:
Adaptive Lag: Band calculation introduces some lag, but this lag is adaptive to current conditions rather than fixed
Faster Than Manual Adjustment: Automatic band adjustment is faster than trader's ability to manually modify thresholds
Balanced Approach: Combines RSI's inherent momentum lag with BB's statistical smoothing for stable yet responsive signals
Versatility:
Multi-Strategy Application: Supports both mean reversion (ranging markets) and trend continuation (trending markets) approaches
Universal Instrument Coverage: Works effectively across equities, forex, commodities, cryptocurrencies without parameter changes
Timeframe Agnostic: Same interpretation applies from 1-minute charts to monthly charts
Limitations and Considerations:
Known Limitations:
Dual Lag Effect: Combines RSI's momentum lag with BB's statistical lag, making it less suitable for very short-term scalping
Requires Volatility History: Needs sufficient bars for BB calculation, less effective immediately after major regime changes
Statistical Assumptions: Assumes RSI values are somewhat normally distributed, extreme trending conditions may violate this
Not a Standalone System: Like all indicators, should be combined with price action analysis and risk management
Optimal Use Cases:
Best for swing trading and position trading timeframes
Most effective in markets with alternating volatility regimes
Ideal for traders who use multiple instruments and timeframes
Suitable for systematic trading approaches requiring consistent logic
Suboptimal Conditions:
Very low timeframes (< 5 minutes) where lag becomes problematic
Instruments with extreme volatility spikes (gap-prone markets)
Markets in strong persistent trends where mean reversion rarely occurs
Periods immediately following major structural changes (new trading regime)
USAGE NOTES
This indicator is designed for technical analysis and educational purposes to help traders understand the interaction between momentum measurement and statistical volatility bands. The RSI Bollinger Bands has limitations and should not be used as the sole basis for trading decisions.
Important Considerations:
No Predictive Guarantee: Past band touches and patterns do not guarantee future price behavior
Market Regime Dependency: Indicator performance varies significantly between trending and ranging market conditions
Complementary Analysis Required: Should be used alongside price action, support/resistance levels, and fundamental analysis
Risk Management Essential: Always use proper position sizing, stop losses, and risk controls regardless of signal quality
Parameter Sensitivity: Different instruments and timeframes may require parameter optimization for optimal results
Continuous Monitoring: Band characteristics change with market conditions, requiring ongoing assessment
Recommended Supporting Analysis:
Price structure analysis (support/resistance, trend lines)
Volume confirmation for breakout signals
Multiple timeframe alignment
Market context awareness (news events, session times)
Correlation analysis with related instruments
The indicator aims to provide adaptive momentum analysis that adjusts to changing market volatility, but traders must apply sound judgment, proper risk management, and comprehensive market analysis in their decision-making process.
Optimum EMAs x2Function Review
Optimum EMAs assesses EMA-price interactions by scoring reaction percentages for bullish/bearish touches. Creates EMA bands (top: most reactive bearish EMA as resistance; bottom: most reactive bullish EMA as support) with customizable test/bull/bear fast/slow EMAs, toggles, adjustable colors/gradients, and reaction table.
Usage Write-Up
Define fast (e.g., 5-15) and slow (e.g., 15-30) EMA ranges based on strategy. Scan with Test EMA for high reaction scores. Set optima in Bull/Bear Fast/Slow inputs to form reactive EMA bands (bullish top support, bearish bottom resistance), enhancing trend signals in bull/bear markets.
Digital RPM HUD — 4 Feeds + Confidence + Timeline (v3)🏎️ Digital RPM HUD — 4 Feeds + Confidence + Timeline (v3)
A performance-style trading dashboard for momentum-driven traders.
The Digital RPM HUD gives you an instant visual readout of market “engine speed” — combining four customizable data feeds (Trend, Momentum, Volume, Volatility) into a single confidence score (0–100) and a color-coded timeline of regime changes.
Think of it as a racing-inspired control panel: you only “hit the throttle” when confidence is high and all systems agree.
🔧 Key Features
4 Data Feeds – assign your own logic (EMA, RSI, RVOL, ATR, etc.).
Confidence Meter – blends the four feeds into one smooth 0–100 reading.
Timeline Strip – shows recent bullish / bearish / neutral states at a glance.
Visual Trade Cues – optional on-chart LONG / SHORT / EXIT markers.
Fully Customizable – thresholds, weights, smoothing, colors, layout.
HUD Overlay – clean, minimal, and adjustable to any corner of your chart.
💡 How to Use
Configure each feed to reflect your preferred signals (e.g., trend EMA 200, momentum RSI 14, volume RVOL 20, volatility ATR 14).
Watch the Confidence gauge:
✅ Above Bull Threshold → Market acceleration / long bias.
❌ Below Bear Threshold → Momentum loss / short bias.
⚪ Between thresholds → Neutral zone; stay patient.
Use the Timeline to confirm trend consistency — more green = bullish regime, more red = bearish.
⚙️ Recommended Setups
Scalping: Trend EMA 50 + RSI 7 + RVOL 10 + ATR 7 → Fast response.
Intraday: EMA 200 + RSI 14 + RVOL 20 + ATR 14 → Balanced signal.
Swing: Multi-TF Trend + MACD + RVOL + ATR → Smooth and steady.

GRG/RGR Signal, MA, Ranges and PivotsThis indicator is a combination of several indicators.
It is a combination of two of my indicators which I solely use for trading
1. EMA 10-20-50-200, Pivots and Previous Day/Week/Month range
2. 3/4-Bar GRG / RGR Pattern (Conditional 4th Candle)
You can use them individually if you already have some of them or just use this one. Belive me when I say, this is all you need, along with market structure knowlege and even if you don’t have that, this indicator has been doing wonders for me. This is all I use. I do not use anything else.
**Note - Do checkout the indicators individually as I have added valuable information in the comment section.
It contains the following,
1. 10 EMA/SMA - configurable
2. 20 EMA/SMA - configurable
3. 50 EMA/SMA - configurable
4. 200 EMA/SMA - configurable
5. Previous Day's Range - configurable
6. Previous Week's Range - configurable
7. Previous Month's Range - configurable
8. Pivots - configurable
9. Buy Sell Signal - configurable
The Moving Averages
It is a very important combination and using it correctly with price action will strengthen your entries and exits.
The ema's or sma's added are the most powerful ones and they do definitely act as support and resistance.
The Daily/Weekly/Monthly Ranges
The Daily/Weekly/Monthly ranges are extremely important for any trader and should be used for targets and reversals.
Pivots
Pivots can provide support and resistance level. R5 and S5 can be used to check for over stretched conditions. You can customise them however you like. It is a full pivot indicator.
It is defaulted to show R5 and S5 only to reduce noise in the chart but it can be customised.
The 3/4 RGR or GRG Signal Generator
Combined with a 3/4 RGR or GRG setup can be all a trader needs.
You don't need complex strategies and SMC concepts to trade. Simple EMAs, ranges and RGR/GRG setup is the most winning combination.
This indicator can be used to identify the Green-Red-Green or Red-Green-Red pattern.
It is a price action indicator where a price action which identifies the defeat of buyers and sellers.
If the buyers comprehensively defeat the sellers then the price moves up and if the sellers defeat the buyers then the price moves down.
In my trading experience this is what defines the price movement.
It is a 3 or 4 candle pattern, beyond that i.e, 5 or more candles could mean a very sideways market and unnecessary signal generation.
How does it work?
Upside/Green signal
1. Say candle 1 is Green, which means buyers stepped in, then candle 2 is Red or a Doji, that means sellers brought the price down. Then if candle 3 is forming to be Green and breaks the closing of the 1st candle and opening of the 2nd candle, then a green arrow will appear and that is the place where you want to take your trade.
2. Here the buyers defeated the sellers.
3. Sometimes candle 3 falls short but candle 4 breaks candle 1's closing and candle 2's opening price. We can enter on candle 4.
4. Important - We need to enter the trade as soon as the price moves above the candle 1 and 2's body and should not wait for the 3rd or 4th candle to close. Ignore wicks.
5. But for a more optimised entry I have added an option to use candle’s highs and lows instead of open and close. This reduces lot of noise and provides us with more precise entry. This setting is turned on by default.
6. I have restricted it to 4 candles and that is all that is needed. More than that is a longer sideways market.
7. I call it the +-+ or GRG pattern or Green-Red-Green or Buyer-Seller-Buyer or Seller defeated or just Buyer pattern.
8. Stop loss can be candle 2's mid for safe traders (that includes me) or candle 2's body low for risky traders.
9. Back testing suggests that body low will be useless and result in more points in loss because for the bigger move this point will not be touched, so why not get out faster.
Downside/Red signal
1. Say candle 1 is Red, which means sellers stepped in, then candle 2 is Green or a Doji, that means buyers took the price up. Then if candle 3 is forming to be Red and breaks the closing of the 1st candle and opening of the 2nd candle then a Red arrow will appear and that is the place where you want to take your trade.
2. Sometimes candle 3 falls short but candle 4 breaks candle 1's closing and candle 2's opening price. We can enter on candle 4.
3. We need to enter the trade as soon as the price moves below the candle 1 and 2's body and should not wait for the 3rd or 4th candle to close.
4. But for a more optimised entry I have added an option to use candle’s highs and lows instead of open and close. This reduces lot of noise and provides us with more precise entry. This setting is turned on by default.
5. I have restricted it to 4 candles and that is all that is needed. More than that is a longer sideways market.
6. I call it the -+- or RGR pattern or Red-Green-Red or Seller-Buyer-Seller or Buyer defeated or just Seller pattern.
7. Stop loss can be candle 2's mid for safe traders ( that includes me) or candle 2's body high for risky traders.
8. Back testing suggests that body high will be useless and result in more points in loss because for the bigger move this point will not be touched, so why not get out faster.
Combining Indicators and Signal
Combining these indicators with GRG/RGR signal can be very powerful and can provide big moves.
1. MA crossover and Signal - This is very powerful and provides a very big move. Trades can be held for longer. If after taking the trade we notice that the MA crossover has happened then trades can be held for higher targets.
2. Pivots and Signal - Pivots and add a support or resistance point. Take profits on these points. R5/S5 are over streched conditions so we can start looking for reversal signals and ignore other signals
3. Intraday Range - first 1, 5, 15 min of the day - Sideways days is when price will stay in these ranges. You can take profits at these ranges or if the range is broken and we get a signal, then it can mean that the direction will be sustained.
4. Previous Day/Week/Month Ranges - These can be used as Take Profit points if the price is moving towards them after getting the signal. If the range is broken and we get a signal then it can be a strong signal. They can also be used as reversal points if a strong signal is generated.
Important Settings
1. Include 4th Candle Confirmation - You can enable or disable the 4th candle signal to avoid the noise, but at times I have noticed that the 4th candle gives a very strong signal or I can say that the strong signal falls on the 4th candle. This is mostly a coincidence.
2. Bars to check (default 10) - You can also configure how many previous bars should the signal be generated for. 10 to 30 is good enough. To backtest increase it to 2000 or 5000 for example.
3. Use Candle High/Low for confirmation instead of Candle Open/Close - More optimized entry and noise reduction. This option is now defaulted to false.
4. Show Green-Red-Green (bull) signals - Show only bull entries. Useful when I have a predefined view i.e, I know market is going to go up today.
5. Show Red-Green-Red (bear) signals - Show only bear entries. Useful when I have a predefined view i.e, I know market is going to go down today.
6. 3rd candle should be a Strong candle before considering 4th candle - This will enforce additional logic in 4 candle setup that the 3rd candle is the candle in our direction of breakout. This means something like GRGG is mandatory, which is still the default behaviour. If disabled, the 3rd candle can be any candle and 4th candle will act as our breakout candle. This behaviour has led to breakouts and breakdowns as times, hence I added this as a separate feature. Vice-versa for a RGGR.
For a 4 candle setup till now we were expecting GRGG or RGRR but we can let the system ignore the 3rd candle completely if needed.
This will result in additional signals.
7. Three intraday ranges added for index and stock traders - 1 min, 5 min and 15 min ranges will be displayed. These are disabled by default except 15 min. These are very important ranges and in sideways days the price will usually move within the 15 min. A breakout of this range and a positive signal can be a very powerful setup.
Safe traders can avoid taking a trade in this range as it can lead to fakeouts.
The line style, width, color and opacity are configurable.
Pointers/Golden Rules
1. If after taking the trade, the next candle moves in your direction and closes strong bullish or bearish, then move SL to break even and after that you can trail it.
2. If a upside trade hits SL and immediately a down side trade signal is generated on the next candle then take it. Vice versa is true.
3. Trades need to be taken on previous 2 candle's body high or low combined and not the wicks.
4. The most losses a trader takes is on a sideways day and because in our strategy the stop loss is so small that even on a sideways day we'll get out with a little profit or worst break even.
5. Hold trades for longer targets and don't panic.
6. If last 3-4 days have been sideways then there is a good probability that today will be trending so we can hold our trade for longer targets. Inverse is true when the market has been trending for 2-3 days then volatility followed by sideways is coming (DOW theory). Target to hold the trade for whole day and not exit till the day closes.
7. In general avoid trading in the middle of the day for index and stocks. Divide the day into 3 parts and avoid the middle.
8. Use Support/Resistance, 10, 20, 50, 200 EMA/SMA, Gaps, Whole/Round numbers(very imp) for identifying targets.
9. Trail your SL.
10. For indexes I would use 5 min and 15 min timeframe and at times 10 mins.
11. For commodities and crypto we can use higher timeframe as well. Look for signals during volatile time durations and avoid trading the whole day. Signal usually gives good targets on those times.
12. If a GRG or RGR pattern appears on a daily timeframe then this is our time to go big.
13. Minimum Risk to Reward should be 1:2 and for longer targets can be 1:4 to 1:10.
14. Trade with small lot size. Money management will happen automatically.
15. With small lot size and correct Risk-Reward we can be very profitable. Don't trade with big lot size.
16. Stay in the market for longer and collect points not money.
17. Very imp - Watch market and learn to generate a market view.
18. Very imp - Only 3 type of candles are needed in trading -
Strong Bullish (Big Green candle), Strong Bearish (Big Red candle),
Hammer (it is Strong Bullish), Inverse Hammer (it is Strong Bearish)
and Doji (indecision or confusion).
If on daily timeframe I see Strong Bullish candle previous day then I am biased to the upside the next day, if I see Strong Bearish candle the previous day then I am biased to the downside the next day, if I see Doji on the previous day then I am cautious the next day, if there are back to back Dojis forming in daily or weekly then I am preparing for big move so time to go big once I get the signal.
19. Most Important Candlestick pattern - Bullish and Bearish Engulfing
20. The only Chart patterns I need -
a) Falling Wedge/Channel Bullish Pattern Uptrend or Bull Flag - Buying - Forming over a couple days for intraday and forming over a couple of weeks for swing
b) Falling Wedge/Channel Bullish Pattern Downtrend or Falling Channel - Buying
c) Rising Wedge Bearish Pattern Uptrend or Rising Channel - Selling
d) Rising Wedge Bearish Pattern Downtrend or Bear flag - Selling
e) Head and Shoulder - Over a longer period not for intraday. In 15 min takes few days and for swing 1hr or 4h or daily can take few days
f) M and W pattern - Reversal Patterns - They form within the above 4 patterns, usually resulting in the break of trend line
21. How Gaps work -
a) Small Gap up in Uptrend - Market can fill the gap and reverse. The perception is that people are buying. If previous day candle was Strong Bullish then market view is up.
b) Big Gap up in Uptrend - Not news driven - Profit booking will come but may not fill the entire gap
c) Big Gap up in Uptrend - News driven, war related, tax, interest rate - Market can keep going up without stopping.
c) Flat opening in Uptrend - Big chance of market going up. If previous day candle was Strong Bullish then view is upwards, if it was Doji then still upwards.
d) Gap down in Uptrend - Market is surprised. After going down initially it can go up
e) Small Gap down in Downtrend - Market can fill the gap and keep moving down. If previous day candle was Strong Bearish then view is still down.
f) Flat opening in Downtrend - View is down, short today.
g) Big Gap down in Downtrend - Profit booking and foolish buying will come but market view is still down.
h) Gap down with News - Volatility, sideways then down.
i) Gap Up in Downtrend - Can move up - Price can move up during 2/3rd of the day and End of the day revert and close in red.
22. Go big on bearish days for option traders. Puts are better bought and Calls are better sold.
23. Cluster of green signals can lead to bigger move on the upside and vice versa for red signals.
24. Most of this is what I learned from successful traders (from the top 2%) only the indicator is mine.

Session Gap Fill [LuxAlgo]The Session Gap Fill tool detects and highlights filled and unfilled price gaps between regular sessions. It features a dashboard with key statistics about the detected gaps.
The tool is highly customizable, allowing users to filter by different types of gaps and customize how they are displayed on the chart.
🔶 USAGE
By default, the tool detects all price gaps between sessions. A price gap is defined as a difference between the opening price of one session and the closing price of the previous session. In this case, the tool uses the opening price of the first bar of the session against the closing price of the previous bar.
A bullish gap is detected when the session open price is higher than the last close, and a bearish gap is detected when the session open price is lower than the last close.
Gaps represent a change in market sentiment, a difference in what market participants think between the close of one trading session and the open of the next.
What is useful to traders is not the gap itself, but how the market reacts to it.
Unfilled gaps occur when prices do not return to the previous session's closing price.
Filled gaps occur when prices come back to the previous session's close price.
By analyzing how markets react to gaps, traders can understand market sentiment, whether different prices are accepted or rejected, and take advantage of this information to position themselves in favor of bullish or bearish market sentiment.
Next, we will cover the Gap Type Filter and Statistics Dashboard.
🔹 Gap Type Filter
Traders can choose from three options: display all gaps, display only overlapping gaps, or display only non-overlapping gaps. All gaps are displayed by default.
An overlapping gap is defined when the first bar of the session has any price in common with the previous bar. No overlapping gap is defined when the two bars do not share any price levels.
As we will see in the next section, there are clear differences in market behavior around these types of gaps.
🔹 Statistics Dashboard
The Statistics Dashboard displays key metrics that help traders understand market behavior around each type of gap.
Gaps: The percentage of bullish and bearish gaps.
Filled: The percentage of filled bullish and bearish gaps.
Reversed: The percentage of filled gaps that move in favor of the gap
Bars Avg.: The average number of bars for a gap to be filled.
Now, let's analyze the chart on the left of the image to understand those stats. These are the stats for all gaps, both overlapping and non-overlapping.
Of the total, bullish gaps represent 55%, and bearish ones represent 44%. The gap bias is pretty balanced in this market.
The second statistic, Filled, shows that 63% of gaps are filled, both bullish and bearish. Therefore, there is a higher probability that a gap will be filled than not.
The third statistic is reversed. This is the percentage of filled gaps where prices move in favor of the gap. This applies to filled bullish gaps when the close of the session is above the open, and to filled bearish gaps when the close of the session is below the open. In other words, first there is a gap, then it fills, and finally it reverses. As we can see in the chart, this only happens 35% of the time for bullish gaps and 29% of the time for bearish gaps.
The last statistic is Bars Avg., which is the average number of bars for a gap to be filled. On average, it takes between one and two bars for both bullish and bearish gaps. On average, gaps fill quickly.
As we can see on the chart, selecting different types of gaps yields different statistics and market behavior. For example, overlapping gaps have a greater than 90% chance of being filled, whereas non-overlapping gaps have a less than 40% chance.

Magic Volume - Projected [MW]Magic Volume – Projected
This lower-pane volume tool estimates the full-bar volume before the bar closes by measuring the current bar’s elapsed time and the rate of incoming volume. It then contrasts that “expected volume” against typical activity and recent momentum to spotlight potential burst conditions (breakout/acceleration), color-codes the live volume stream, and annotates when the projected surge is likely bullish or bearish based on bar structure and recent highs/lows.
Settings
Projected / Expected Volume
Moving Average: EMA length used for volume baseline comparisons. (Default: 14)
Minimum Volume: Hard floor the bar’s raw volume must exceed to qualify as notable. (Default: 10,000)
Consecutive Volume Above 14 EMA: Count required for “sustained” high-volume context. (Default: 3)
Stochastic Volume Burst
Stochastic Length: Window for the Stochastic calculation on volume. (Default: 8)
Smoothing: Smoothing applied to Stochastic volume and its signal. (Default: 3)
Stochastic Volume Breakout Threshold: Level above which Stochastic volume is considered a breakout. (Default: 20)
Volume Bar Increase Amount: Multiplier the current bar’s volume must exceed vs. prior bar to be considered a “burst.” (Default: 1.618)
Plotted Items
Expected Volume (columns): Magenta columns projecting the full-bar volume from intrabar rate. Turns lime when a high expected-volume condition aligns with bullish bar structure; turns red under analogous bearish conditions.
Actual Volume (columns): Live volume columns, color-coded by state:
• Blue = baseline;
• Orange = “burst” (volume rising fast above prior × factor and above baseline);
• Yellow = “burst at breakout” (burst + Stochastic volume breakout);
• Light Blue = Stochastic breakout only.
Volume EMA (line): Yellow EMA for baseline comparison (default 14).
Calculations
Compute elapsed time in the current bar (ms → seconds) and convert the current bar’s accumulated volume into a rate (volume per second).
Project full-bar Expected Volume = (volume so far / seconds elapsed) × bar-seconds.
Compute Volume EMA (default 14) for baseline; derive Stochastic(volume, length) and smoothed signal for momentum.
Define “Burst” conditions:
• Volume > prior volume × Volume Bar Increase Amount;
• Volume > Minimum Volume;
• Volume > Volume EMA;
• Stochastic(volume) rising and/or above threshold.
Classify “Burst at Breakout” when Burst aligns with Stochastic crossover above the Breakout Threshold.
Classify Bullish/Bearish Expected Volume: if Expected Volume is ≥ 1.618 × prior bar volume and prior volume > Volume EMA, then:
• Bullish if bar is green with a rising low;
• Bearish if bar is red with a falling high.
Color-map actual volume columns by state; overlay Expected Volume columns (magenta) and paint conditional overlays (lime/red) when directional context is detected.
How to Use
Spot the Surge Early
When Expected Volume spikes well above typical (and especially above ~1.618× the prior bar) before the bar closes, it often precedes a volatile move. Use this to prepare entries with tight, structure-based risk (e.g., just beyond the current bar’s wick) and asymmetric targets.
Confirm with Momentum
Yellow/orange volume columns indicate burst/breakout behavior in the live tape. When this aligns with a lime (bullish) or red (bearish) Expected Volume column, the probability of follow-through improves—particularly if aligned with prevailing trend or key levels.
Context Matters
Combine with your preferred S/R or structure tools (e.g., order blocks, channels, VWAP) to avoid chasing into obvious supply/demand. The projected surge can mark both continuations and sharp reversals depending on location and broader context.
Alerts
High Expected Volume – Bullish: When projected volume surges and the price action meets bullish conditions (green body with rising low).
High Expected Volume – Bearish: When projected volume surges and the price action meets bearish conditions (red body with falling high).
Other Usage Notes and Limitations
Projected volume depends on intrabar pace; abrupt pauses/flushes can change the projection quickly, especially on very small timeframes.
Minimum Volume and EMA baselines help filter thin markets; adjust upward on illiquid symbols to reduce noise.
A rising projection does not pick direction on its own—directional coloring (lime/red) requires price-action confirmation; otherwise treat magenta projections as “heads-up” only.
As with any single indicator, use within a broader plan (risk management, structure, confluence) to mitigate false positives and improve selectivity.

Camarilla Pivots + 20 EMA StrategyThis is an intraday volatility and trend-following system for commodities like Natural Gas, combining dynamic pivot levels (Camarilla) with a trend filter (20-period EMA) to improve risk-reward and reduce false breakouts.
Core Components
1. Camarilla Pivots:
These are special support and resistance levels (H3, H4, L3, L4) calculated each day based on the previous day's high, low, and close.
The pivots adapt to daily volatility, giving more relevant breakout and bounce zones than static lines.
H4: Aggressive resistance (used for breakout LONG entry)
H3: Moderate resistance/support (used for bounce or stoploss)
L4: Aggressive support (used for breakout SHORT entry)
L3: Moderate support/resistance (used for bounce or stoploss)
2. 20 EMA (Exponential Moving Average):
Plotted on the 30-minute chart, this acts as a trend filter.
If the price is above 20 EMA: Only look for long trades (bullish bias).
If below 20 EMA: Only look for short trades (bearish bias).
How the Strategy Works
Setup (30-Min Chart):
Camarilla pivots for the day are drawn on the chart.
20 EMA is also plotted.
Trade Filter:
Bullish: Trade ONLY if price is above 20 EMA.
Bearish: Trade ONLY if price is below 20 EMA.
Entry:
LONG: Enter when price breaks and closes above the H4 pivot AND is above 20 EMA.
SHORT: Enter when price breaks and closes below the L4 pivot AND is below 20 EMA.
Stop Loss:
LONG: Place stoploss at H3 (the next lower Camarilla resistance).
SHORT: Place stoploss at L3 (the next higher Camarilla support).
Target:
Always set a profit target at 2x the distance (risk) between entry and stoploss (strict R:R 2).
For example, if your entry is at H4 and stoploss at H3, your target is entry + 2*(entry - stoploss).
Alerts & Visuals:
The strategy plots entry arrows, stoploss and target lines for immediate visual reference.
Alerts trigger on breakout signals so you never miss a trade.
Why This Works Well for Natural Gas
Adapts to volatility: The pivots change daily, handling wide-ranging and choppy price moves better than fixed breakouts.
Trend filter: EMA prevents counter-trend whipsaws, only trades with market momentum.
Risk control: Every trade must meet strict risk-reward criteria, so losses are contained and winners can outweigh losers.
LA - MACD EMA BandsOverview of the "LA - MACD EMA Bands" Indicator
For Better view, use this indicator along with "LA - EMA Bands with MTF Dashboard"
The "LA - MACD EMA Bands" is a custom technical indicator written in Pine Script v6 for TradingView. It builds on the traditional Moving Average Convergence Divergence (MACD) oscillator by incorporating additional smoothing via Exponential Moving Averages (EMAs) and Bollinger Bands (BB) applied directly to the MACD line. This creates a multi-layered momentum and volatility tool displayed in a separate pane below the price chart (not overlaid on the price itself).
The indicator allows for customization, such as selecting a different timeframe (for multi-timeframe analysis) and adjusting period lengths. It fetches data from the specified timeframe using request.security with lookahead enabled to avoid repainting issues. The core idea is to provide insights into momentum trends, crossovers, and volatility expansions/contractions in the MACD's behavior, making it suitable for identifying potential trend reversals, continuations, or ranging markets.
Unlike a standard MACD, which focuses primarily on momentum via a single line, signal line, and histogram, this version emphasizes longer-term smoothing and volatility boundaries. It uses visual fills between lines to highlight bullish/bearish conditions, aiding quick interpretation. Below, I'll break down each component, its calculation, visual representation, and practical uses.
Detailed Breakdown of Each Component and Its Uses
MACD Line (Blue Line, Labeled 'MACD Line')
Calculation: This is the core MACD value, computed as the difference between a fast EMA (default length 12) and a slow EMA (default length 144) of the input source (default: close price). The EMAs are calculated on data from the selected timeframe.
Visuals: Plotted as a solid blue line.
Uses:
Measures momentum: When above zero, it indicates bullish momentum (prices rising faster in the short term); below zero, bearish momentum.
Trend identification: Rising MACD suggests strengthening uptrends; falling suggests downtrends.
Divergence spotting: Compare with price action—e.g., if price makes higher highs but MACD makes lower highs, it signals potential bearish reversal (and vice versa for bullish divergence).
In trading: Often used for entry/exit signals when crossing the zero line or other lines in the indicator.
MACD EMA (Red Line, Labeled 'MACD EMA')
Calculation: A 12-period EMA applied to the MACD Line itself.
Visuals: Plotted as a solid red line.
Uses:
Acts as a signal line for the MACD, smoothing out short-term noise.
Crossover signals: When the MACD Line crosses above the MACD EMA, it can signal a bullish buy opportunity; crossing below suggests a bearish sell.
Trend confirmation: Helps filter false signals in choppy markets by requiring confirmation from this slower-moving average.
In trading: Useful for momentum-based strategies, like entering trades on crossovers in alignment with the overall trend.
Fill Between MACD Line and MACD EMA (Green/Red Shaded Area, Titled 'MACD Fill')
Calculation: The area between the MACD Line and MACD EMA is filled with color based on their relative positions.
Color Logic: Green (with 57% transparency) if MACD Line > MACD EMA (bullish); red if MACD Line < MACD EMA (bearish).
Visuals: Semi-transparent fill for easy visibility without overwhelming the lines.
Uses:
Quick visual cue for momentum shifts: Green areas highlight bullish phases; red for bearish.
Enhances readability: Makes crossovers more apparent at a glance, especially in fast-moving markets.
In trading: Can be used to time entries/exits or as a filter (e.g., only take long trades in green zones).
Bollinger Bands on MACD (BB Upper: Black Dotted, BB Basis: Maroon Dotted, BB Lower: Black Dotted)
Calculation: Bollinger Bands applied to the MACD Line.
BB Basis: 144-period EMA of the MACD Line.
BB Standard Deviation: 144-period stdev of the MACD Line.
BB Upper: BB Basis + (2.0 * BB Stdev)
BB Lower: BB Basis - (2.0 * BB Stdev)
Visuals: Upper and lower bands as black dotted lines; basis as maroon dotted
Uses:
Volatility measurement: Bands expand during high momentum volatility (strong trends) and contract during low volatility (ranging or consolidation).
Mean reversion: When MACD Line touches or exceeds the upper band, it may signal overbought conditions (potential sell); lower band for oversold (potential buy).
Squeeze detection: Narrow bands (squeeze) often precede big moves—watch for breakouts.
In trading: Combines momentum with volatility; e.g., a MACD Line breakout above the upper band could confirm a strong uptrend.
BB Basis EMA (Green Line, Labeled 'BB Basis EMA')
Calculation: A 72-period EMA applied to the BB Basis (which is already a 144-period EMA of the MACD Line).
Visuals: Solid green line.
Uses:
Further smoothing: Provides a longer-term view of the MACD's average behavior, reducing noise from the BB Basis.
Trend direction: Acts as a baseline for the BB system—above it suggests bullish bias in momentum volatility; below, bearish.
Crossover with BB Basis: Can signal shifts in volatility trends (e.g., BB Basis crossing above BB Basis EMA indicates increasing bullish volatility).
In trading: Useful for confirming longer-term trends or as a filter for BB-based signals.
Fill Between BB Basis and BB Basis EMA (Gray Shaded Area, Titled 'BB Basis Fill')
Calculation: The area between BB Basis and BB Basis EMA is filled.
Color Logic: Currently set to a constant semi-transparent gray regardless of position.
Visuals: Semi-transparent gray fill.
Uses:
Highlights divergence: Shows when the shorter-term BB Basis deviates from its longer-term EMA, indicating potential volatility shifts.
Visual aid for crossovers: Makes it easier to spot when BB Basis crosses its EMA.
In trading: Could be used to identify overextensions in volatility (e.g., wide gray areas might signal impending mean reversion).
Zero Line (Black Horizontal Line)
Calculation: A simple horizontal line at y=0.
Visuals: Solid black line.
Uses:
Reference point: Divides bullish (above) from bearish (below) territory for all MACD-related lines.
In trading: Crossovers of the zero line by the MACD Line or BB Basis can signal major trend changes.
How It Differs from a Normal MACD
A standard MACD (e.g., the built-in TradingView MACD with defaults 12/26/9) consists of:
MACD Line: EMA(12) - EMA(26).
Signal Line: EMA(MACD Line, 9).
Histogram: MACD Line - Signal Line (bars showing convergence/divergence).
Key differences in "LA - MACD EMA Bands":
Periods: Uses a much longer slow EMA (144 vs. 26), making it more sensitive to long-term trends but less reactive to short-term price action. The MACD EMA is 12 periods (vs. 9), further emphasizing smoothing.
No Histogram: Replaces the histogram with fills and bands for visual emphasis on crossovers and volatility.
Added Bollinger Bands: Applies BB directly to the MACD Line (with a long 144-period basis), introducing volatility analysis absent in standard MACD. This helps detect "squeezes" or expansions in momentum.
Additional EMA Layer: The BB Basis EMA (72-period) adds a secondary smoothing level to the BB system, providing a hierarchical view of momentum (short-term MACD → mid-term BB → long-term EMA).
Multi-Timeframe Support: Built-in option for higher timeframes, unlike basic MACD.
Focus: Standard MACD is purely momentum-focused; this version integrates volatility (via BB) and multi-layer smoothing, making it better for trend-following in volatile markets but potentially overwhelming for beginners.
Overall, this indicator transforms the MACD from a simple oscillator into a comprehensive momentum-volatility hybrid, reducing false signals in trending markets but introducing lag.
Overall Pros and Cons
Pros:
Enhanced Visualization: Fills and bands make trends, crossovers, and volatility easier to spot without needing multiple indicators.
Reduced Noise: Longer periods (144, 72) smooth out whipsaws, ideal for swing or position trading in trending assets like stocks or forex.
Volatility Integration: BB adds a dimension not in standard MACD, helping identify breakouts or consolidations.
Customizable: Inputs for timeframes and lengths allow adaptation to different assets/timeframes.
Multi-Layered Insights: Combines short-term signals (MACD crossovers) with long-term confirmation (BB EMA), improving signal reliability.
Cons:
Lagging Nature: Long periods (e.g., 144) delay signals, missing early entries in fast markets or leading to late exits.
Complexity: Multiple lines and fills can clutter the pane, requiring experience to interpret; beginners might misread it.
Potential Overfitting: Custom periods (12/144/12/144/72) may work well on historical data but underperform in live trading without backtesting.
No Built-in Alerts/Signals: Relies on visual interpretation; users must manually set alerts for crossovers.
Resource Intensive: On lower timeframes or with lookahead, it might slow chart loading on Trading View.
This indicator shines in strategies combining momentum and volatility, like trend-following with BB squeezes, but test it on your assets (e.g., via backtesting) to ensure it fits your style.

Momentum Variance OscillatorWhat MVO measures:
-PV (Price-Volume) Oscillator – how far price is from a volatility-scaled basis, then weighted by relative volume.
- > 0 = bullish pressure; < 0 = bearish pressure.
-|PV| larger ⇒ stronger momentum.
-Signal line (EMA of PV) – a smoother track of PV; crossings flag momentum shifts.
-Zero line gradient – instantly shows direction (greenish bull / reddish bear) and strength (paler → stronger).
-Extreme bands (±obLevel) – “hot zone” thresholds; being beyond them = exceptional push.
-Variance histogram – MACD-like view (PV minus slower PV-EMA) to see thrust building vs. fading.
-(Optional) Bar coloring & background tint – paints price bars and/or the panel on key events so you can read the regime at a glance.
-Auto-Tune – searches a grid of (obLevel, weakLvl) pairs and (optionally) auto-applies the best, ranked by CAGR vs. drawdown.
Core signals & how to trade them:
1) Define the regime:
-Bullish regime: PV above 0 and/or PV above Signal; zero line is in bull gradient.
-Bearish regime: PV below 0 and/or PV below Signal; zero line is in bear gradient.
-Action: Prefer trades with the regime (avoid fading strong color/strength unless you have a clear reversal setup).
2) Entries:
Momentum entry:
-Long: PV crosses above Signal while PV > 0.
-Short: PV crosses below Signal while PV < 0.
Breakout/acceleration:
-Long add-on: PV crosses above +obLevel (extreme top) and holds.
-Short add-on: PV crosses below −obLevel (extreme bottom) and holds.
-Histogram confirm: Growing bars in your direction = thrust improving; shrinking/flip = thrust stalling.
3) Exits / risk:
-Soft exit / tighten stops: PV loses the extreme and re-enters inside, or histogram fades/turns against you.
-Hard exit / reverse: Opposite PV↔Signal crossover and PV crosses the zero line.
-Weak zone filter: If |PV| < weakLvl, treat signals as lower quality (smaller size or skip).
4) Practical setup - Suggested defaults (good starting point):
-Signal length: 26
-Volume power: 0.50
-obLevel (extreme): 2.00
-weakLvl: 0.75
-Show histogram & dots: On
-Auto-Tune (recommended)
-Turn Auto-Select Best ON. MVO will scan obLevel 1.50→3.00 (step 0.05) and weakLvl 0.50→1.00 (step 0.05), then use the top-ranked pair (CAGR/(1+MDD)).
-If you want to see the top combos, enable the Optimizer Table (Top-3).
5) Visual options
-Bar Colors: Regime+Strength – bars follow the zero-line gradient (great for quick read).
-Extremes – paint only when beyond ±obLevel.
-Cross Signals – paint only on the bar that crosses an extreme.
-Background on breach: A one-bar tint when PV crosses an extreme.
6) Example playbook:
Long setup:
-Zero line shows bull gradient and PV > 0.
-PV crosses above Signal (entry).
-If PV drives above +obLevel, consider add-on; trail under the last minor swing or use ATR.
-Exit/trim on PV crossing below Signal or histogram turning negative; flatten on a drop through 0.
Short setup mirrors the above on the bear side.
7) Tips to avoid common traps:
-Don’t fade strong extremes without clear confirmation (e.g., PV re-entering inside + histogram flip).
-Respect the weak zone: if |PV| < weakLvl, signals are fragile—size down or wait.
-Align with structure: higher-timeframe trend and SR improve expectancy.
-Instrument personality matters: use Auto-Tune or re-calibrate obLevel/weakLvl across assets/timeframes.
8) Alerts you can set:
-Bull Signal X – PV crossed above Signal
-Bear Signal X – PV crossed below Signal
-Bull Baseline X – PV crossed above 0
-Bear Baseline X – PV crossed below 0
RSI Trendlines and Divergences█OVERVIEW
The "RSI Trendlines and Divergences" indicator is an advanced technical analysis tool that leverages the Relative Strength Index (RSI) to draw trendlines and detect divergences. Designed for traders seeking precise market signals, the indicator identifies key pivot points on the RSI chart, draws trendlines between pivots, and detects bullish and bearish divergences. It offers flexible settings, background coloring for breakout signals, and divergence labels, supported by alerts for key events. The indicator is universal and works across all markets (stocks, forex, cryptocurrencies) and timeframes.
█CONCEPTS
The indicator was developed to provide an alternative signal source for the RSI oscillator. Trendline breakouts and bounces off trendlines offer a broader perspective on potential price behavior. Combining these with traditional RSI signal interpretation can serve as a foundation for creating various trading strategies.
█FEATURES
- RSI and Pivot Calculation: Calculates RSI based on the selected source price (default: close) with a customizable period (default: 14). Identifies pivot points on RSI and price for trendlines and divergences.
- RSI Trendlines: Draws trendlines connecting RSI pivots (upper for downtrends, lower for uptrends) with optional extension (default: 30 bars). The trendline appears and generates a signal only after the first RSI crossover. Lines are colored (red for upper, green for lower).
- Trendline Fill: Widens the trendline with a tolerance margin expressed in RSI points, reducing signal noise and visually highlighting trend zones. Breaking this zone is a condition for generating signals, minimizing false signals. The tolerance margin can be increased or decreased.
- Divergence Detection: Identifies bullish and bearish divergences based on RSI and price pivots, displaying labels (“Bull” for bullish, “Bear” for bearish) with adjustable transparency. Divergence labels appear with a delay equal to the specified pivot length (default: 5). Higher values yield stronger signals but with greater delay.
- Breakout Signals: Generates signals when RSI crosses the trendline (bullish for upper lines, bearish for lower lines), with background coloring for signal confirmation.
- Alerts: Built-in alerts for:
Detection of bullish and bearish divergences.
Upper trendline crossover (bullish signal).
Lower trendline crossover (bearish signal).
- Customization: Allows adjustment of RSI length, pivot settings, line colors, fills, labels, and transparency of signals and background.
█HOW TO USE
Add the indicator to your TradingView chart via the Pine Editor or Indicators menu.
Configuring Settings.
RSI Settings
- RSI Length: Period for RSI calculation (default: 14).
- SMA Length: Period for RSI moving average (default: 9).
- Source: Source price for RSI (default: close).
Pivot Settings for Trend
- Left Bars for Pivot: Number of bars back for detecting pivots (default: 10).
- Right Bars for Pivot: Number of bars forward for confirming pivots (default: 10).
- Extension after Second Pivot: Number of bars to extend the trendline (default: 30, 0 = none). Extension increases the number of signals, while shortening reduces them.
- Tolerance: Deviation in RSI points to widen the breakout margin, reducing signal noise (default: 3.0).
Divergence Settings
- Enable Divergence Detection: Enables/disables divergence detection (default: enabled).
- Pivot Length for Divergence: Pivot period for divergences (default: 5).
Style Settings
- Upper Trendline Color: Color for downtrend lines (default: red).
- Upper Fill Color: Fill color for upper lines (default: red, transparency 70).
- Lower Trendline Color: Color for uptrend lines (default: green).
- Lower Fill Color: Fill color for lower lines (default: green, transparency 70).
- SMA Color: Color for RSI moving average (default: yellow).
- Bullish Divergence Color: Color for bullish labels (default: green).
- Bearish Divergence Color: Color for bearish labels (default: red).
- Text Color: Color for label text (default: white).
- Divergence Label Transparency: Transparency of labels (0-100, default: 40).
- Signal Background Transparency: Transparency of breakout signal background (0-100, default: 80).
Interpreting Signals
- Trendlines: Upper lines (red) indicate RSI downtrends, lower lines (green) indicate uptrends. The trendline appears and generates a signal only after the first RSI crossover. Trendline breakouts suggest potential trend reversals.
- Divergences: “Bull” labels indicate bullish divergence (potential rise), “Bear” labels indicate bearish divergence (potential decline), with a delay based on pivot length (default: 5). Divergences serve as confirmation or warning of trend reversal, not as standalone signals.
- Signal Background: Green background signals bullish breakouts, red background signals bearish breakouts.
- RSI Levels: Horizontal lines at 70 (overbought), 50 (midline), and 30 (oversold) help assess market zones.
- Alerts: Set up alerts in TradingView for divergences or trendline breakouts.
Combining with Other Tools: Use with support/resistance levels, Fibonacci levels, or other indicators for signal confirmation.
█APPLICATIONS
The "RSI Trendlines and Divergence" indicator is designed to identify trends and potential reversal points, supporting both trend-following and reversal strategies:
- Trend Confirmation: Trendlines indicate the RSI trend direction, with breakouts signaling potential reversals. The indicator is functional in traditional RSI usage, allowing classic RSI interpretation (e.g., returning from overbought/oversold zones). Combining trendline breakouts with RSI signal levels, such as a return from overbought or oversold zones paired with a trendline breakout, strengthens the signal.
- Divergence Detection: Divergences serve as confirmation or warning of trend reversal, not as standalone signals.
█NOTES
- Adjust settings (e.g., RSI length, pivots, tolerance) to suit your trading style and timeframe.
- Combine with other technical analysis tools to enhance signal accuracy.
Synthetic Implied APROverview
The Synthetic Implied APR is an artificial implied APR, designed to imitate the implied APR seen when trading cryptocurrency funding rates. It combines real-time funding rates with premium data to calculate an artificial market expectation of the annualized funding rate.
The (actual) implied APR is the market's expectation of the annualized funding rate. This is dependent on bid/ask impacts of the implied APR, something which is currently unavailable to fetch with TradingView. In essence, an implied APR of X% means traders believe that asset's funding fees to average X% when annualized.
What's important to understand, is that the actual value of the synthetic implied APR is not relevant. We only simply use its relative changes when we trade (i.e if it crosses above/below its MA for a given weight). Even for the same asset, the implied APRs will change depending on days to maturity.
How it calculates
The synthetic implied APR is calculated with these steps:
Collects premium data from perpetual futures markets using optimized lower timeframe requests (check my 'Predicted Funding Rates' indicator)
Calculates the funding rate by adding the premium to an interest rate component (clamped within exchange limits)
Derives the underlying APR from the 8-hour funding rate (funding rate × 3 × 365)
Apply a weighed formula that imitates both the direction (underlying APR) with the volatility of prices (from the premium index and funding)
premium_component = (prem_avg / 50 ) * 365
weighedprem = (weight * fr) + ((1 - weight) * apr) + (premium_component * 0.3)
impliedAPR = math.avg(weighedprem, ta.sma(apr, maLength))
How to use it: Generally
Preface: Funding rates are an indication of market sentiment
If funding is positive, generally the market is bullish as longs are willing to pay shorts funding
If funding is negative, generally the market is bearish as shorts are willing to pay longs funding
So, this script can be used like a typical oscillator:
Bullish: If implied APR > MA OR if implied APR MA is green
Bearish: If implied APR < MA OR if implied APR MA is red
The components:
Synthetic Implied APR: The main metric. At current setting of 0.7, it imitates volatility
Weight: The higher the value, the smoother the synthetic implied APR is (and MA too). This value is very important to the imitation. At 0.7, it imitates the actual volatility of the implied APR. At weight = 1, it becomes very smooth. Perfect for trading
Synthetic Implied APR Moving Average: A moving average of the Synthetic implied APR. Can choose from multiple selections, (SMA, EMA, WMA, HMA, VWMA, RMA)
How to use it: Trading Funding
When trading funding there're multiple ways to use it with different settings
Trade funding rates with trend changes
Settings: Weight = 1
Method 1: When the implied APR MA turns green, long funding rates (or short if red)
Method 2: When the implied APR crosses above the MA, long funding rates (or short when crosses below)
Trade funding rates with MA pullbacks
Settings: Weight = 0.7, timeframe 15m
In an uptrend: When implied APR crosses below then above the script, long funding opportunity
In an downtrend: When implied APR crosses above then below the script, shortfunding opportunity
You can determine the trend with the method before, using a weight of 1
To trade funding rates, it's best to have these 3 scripts at these settings:
Predicted Funding Rates: This allows you to see the predicted funding rates and see if they've maxxed out for added confluence too (+/-0.01% usually for Binance BTC futures)
Synthetic implied APR: At weight 1, the MA provides a good trend (whether close above/below or colour change)
Synthetic implied APR: At weight 0.7, it provides a good imitation of volatility
How to use it: Trading Futures
When trading futures:
You can determine roughly what the trend is, if the assumption is made that funding rates can help identify trends if used as a sentiment indicator. It should be supplemented with traditional trend trading methods
To prevent whipsaws, weight should remain high
Long trend: When the implied APR MA turns green OR when it crosses above its MA
Short trend: When the implied APR MA turns red OR when it below above its MA
Why it's original
This indicator introduces a unique synthetic weighting system that combines funding rates, underlying APR, and premium components in a way not found in existing TradingView scripts. Trading funding rates is a niche area, there aren't that many scripts currently available. And to my knowledge, there's no synthetic implied APR scripts available on TradingView either. So I believe this script to be original in that sense.
Notes
Because it depends on my triangular weighting algos, optimal accuracy is found on timeframes that are 4H or less. On higher timeframes, the accuracy drops off. Best timeframes for intraday trading using this are 15m or 1 hour
The higher the timeframe, the lower the MA one should use. At 1 hour, 200 or higher is best. At say, 4h, length of 50 is best
Only works for coins that have a Binance premium index

Funding Period - Select between "1 Hour" or "8 Hour" funding cycles. 8 hours is standard for Binance
Table - Toggle the information dashboard on/off to show or hide real-time metrics including funding rate, premium, and APR value
Weight - Controls the balance between funding rate (higher values = smoother) and APR (lower values = more responsive) in the calculation, ranging from 0.0 to 1.0. Default is 0.7, this imitates the volatility
Auto Timeframe Implied Length - Automatically calculates optimal smoothing length based on your chart timeframe for consistent behavior across different time periods
Manual Implied Length - Sets a fixed smoothing length (in bars) when auto mode is disabled, with lower values being more responsive and higher values being smoother
Show Implied APR MA - Displays an additional moving average line of the Synthetic Implied APR to help identify trend direction and crossover signals
MA Type for Implied APR - Selects the calculation method (SMA, EMA, WMA, HMA, VWMA, or RMA) for the moving average, each offering different responsiveness and lag characteristics
MA Length for Implied APR - Sets the lookback period (1-500 bars) for the moving average, with shorter lengths providing more signals and longer lengths filtering noise
Show Underlying APR - Displays the raw APR calculation (without synthetic weighting) as a reference line to compare against the main indicator
Bullish Color - Sets the color for positive values in the table and rising MA line
Bearish Color - Sets the color for negative values in the table and falling MA line
Table Background - Customizes the background color and transparency of the information dashboard
Table Text Color - Sets the color for label text in the left column of the information table
Table Text Size - Controls the font size of table text with options from Tiny to Huge
Volume Profile 3D (Zeiierman)█ Overview
Volume Profile 3D (Zeiierman) is a next-generation volume profile that renders market participation as a 3D-style profile directly on your chart. Instead of flat histograms, you get a depth-aware profile with parallax, gradient transparency, and bull/bear separation, so you can see where liquidity stacked up and how it shifted during the move.
Highlights:
3D visual effect with perspective and depth shading for clarity.
Bull/Bear separation to see whether up bars or down bars created the volume.
Flexible colors and gradients that highlight where the most significant trading activity took place.
This is a state-of-the-art volume profile — visually powerful, highly flexible, and unlike anything else available.
█ How It Works
⚪ Profile Construction
The price range (from highest to lowest) is divided into a number of levels (buckets). Each bar’s volume is added to the correct level, based on its average price. This builds a map of where trading volume was concentrated.
You can choose to:
Aggregate all volume at each level, or
Split bullish vs. bearish volume , slightly offset for clarity.
This creates a clear view of which price zones matter most to the market.
⚪ 3D Effect Creation
The unique part of this indicator is how the 3D projection is built. Each volume block’s width is scaled to its relative size, then tilted with a slope factor to create a depth effect.
maxVol = bins.bu.max() + bins.be.max()
width = math.max(1, math.floor(bucketVol / maxVol * ((bar_index - start) * mult)))
slope = -(step * dev) / ((bar_index - start) * (mult/2))
factor = math.pow(math.min(1.0, math.abs(slope) / step), .5)
width → determines how far the volume extends, based on relative strength.
slope → creates the angled projection for the 3D look.
factor → adjusts perspective to make deeper areas shrink naturally.
The result is a 3D-style volume profile where large areas pop forward and smaller areas fade back, giving you immediate visual context.
█ How to Use
⚪ Support & Resistance Zones (HVNs and Value Area)
Regions where a lot of volume traded tend to act like walls:
If price approaches a high-volume area from above, it may act as support.
From below, it may act as resistance.
Traders often enter or exit near these zones because they represent strong agreement among market participants.
⚪ POC Rejections & Mean Reversions
The Point of Control (POC) is the single price level with the highest volume in the profile.
When price returns to the POC and rejects it, that’s often a signal for reversal trades.
In ranging markets, price may bounce between edges of the Value Area and revert to POC.
⚪ Breakouts via Low-Volume Zones (LVNs)
Low volume areas (gaps in the profile) offer path of least resistance:
Price often moves quickly through these thin zones when momentum builds.
Use them to spot breakouts or continuation trades.
⚪ Directional Insight
Use the bull/bear separation to see whether buyers or sellers dominated at key levels.
