DarkPool's Squeeze Momentum @author LazyBearDarkPool's Squeeze Momentum Pro is a comprehensive overhaul of the classic volatility indicator, designed for the modern trader who requires deeper market insight. While staying true to the core logic of the original TTM Squeeze, this version introduces advanced features like automatic divergence detection, dynamic moving average selection, and main-chart integration to help you time entries and exits with precision.
Credit: This script is built upon the foundational "Squeeze Momentum Indicator" originally developed by LazyBear. This version expands on that legacy with enhanced visualization, alert systems, and divergence logic.
Key Features
1. Advanced Divergence Detection
The indicator automatically scans for Regular Bullish and Regular Bearish divergences between price action and momentum.
Bullish Divergence (Green "BULL" Label): Occurs when Price makes a Lower Low, but Momentum makes a Higher Low. This often precedes a bullish reversal.
Bearish Divergence (Red "BEAR" Label): Occurs when Price makes a Higher High, but Momentum makes a Lower High. This often precedes a bearish reversal.
2. Multi-Mode Squeeze Detection
The central dots on the zero line tell you the state of market volatility:
Red Dot (Squeeze ON): Volatility is compressed. The Bollinger Bands are inside the Keltner Channels. The market is "coiling" and preparing for an explosive move. Do not trade yet—wait for the fire.
Grey Dot (Squeeze OFF): The squeeze has "fired." Volatility is expanding, and price is moving.
Blue Dot (Wide Bands): Volatility is extremely high. The bands are exceptionally wide, often indicating the end of a trend or a period of high risk.
3. "Ghost" Histogram & Visual Depth
The momentum histogram features a "Ghost" fill (transparent background) to help visualize the volume of momentum without cluttering the screen.
Bright Green: Strong Bullish Momentum (Rising).
Dark Green: Weakening Bullish Momentum (Fading).
Bright Red: Strong Bearish Momentum (Falling).
Dark Red: Weakening Bearish Momentum (Recovering).
4. Dynamic Candle Coloring
Enabled by default, this feature colors the candles on your main chart to match the momentum histogram. This allows you to instantly gauge the trend strength without looking down at the oscillator pane.
5. Adaptive Calculation Engines
Unlike standard versions fixed to SMA, you can now select the moving average algorithm that drives the Bollinger Bands and Keltner Channels:
SMA: Standard, stable signals.
EMA: More reactive to recent price action.
WMA/RMA: Weighted options for specific strategies.
🛠 How to Operate
The "Squeeze & Fire" Strategy
Identify the Squeeze: Look for a series of Red Dots on the zero line. This indicates the market is resting and building energy.
The Trigger: Wait for the dot to turn Gray AND for the histogram to expand clearly in one direction.
Long Signal: Squeeze fires (Red -> Gray) + Histogram turns Green.
Short Signal: Squeeze fires (Red -> Gray) + Histogram turns Red.
The "Divergence Reversal" Strategy
Watch for "BULL" or "BEAR" labels appearing near the peaks or valleys of the histogram.
Confirmation: A divergence is a warning. Wait for the histogram color to change (e.g., from Bright Red to Dark Red) before entering a reversal trade.
⚙️ Settings Guide
Basis MA Type: Choose between SMA, EMA, WMA, or RMA to tune the sensitivity of the squeeze.
BB/KC Settings: Fully customizable Length and Multipliers to adapt to different assets (Crypto, Forex, or Stocks).
Pivot Lookback: Controls how strict the divergence detection is. Higher numbers = fewer, more significant signals.
Colour Main Chart Candles: Toggle this OFF if you prefer your standard candle colours.

Adaptive MA Scalping StrategyAdaptive MA Scalping Strategy
The Adaptive MA Scalping Strategy is an innovative trading approach that merges the strengths of the Kaufman's Adaptive Moving Average (KAMA) with the Moving Average Convergence Divergence (MACD) histogram. This combination results in a momentum-adaptive moving average that dynamically adjusts to market conditions, providing traders with timely and reliable signals.
How It Works
Kaufman's Adaptive Moving Average (KAMA): Unlike traditional moving averages, KAMA adjusts its sensitivity based on market volatility. It becomes more responsive during trending markets and less sensitive during periods of consolidation, effectively filtering out market noise.
MACD Histogram Integration: The strategy incorporates the MACD histogram, a momentum indicator that measures the difference between a fast and a slow exponential moving average (EMA). By adding the MACD histogram values to the KAMA, the strategy creates a new line—the momentum-adaptive moving average (MOMA)—which captures both trend direction and momentum.
Signal Generation:
Long Entry: The strategy enters a long position when the closing price crosses above the MOMA. This indicates a potential upward momentum shift.
Exit Position: The position is closed when the closing price crosses below the MOMA, signaling a potential decline in momentum.
Cloud Calculation Detail
The MOMA is calculated by adding the MACD histogram value to the KAMA of the price. This addition effectively adjusts the KAMA based on the momentum indicated by the MACD histogram. When momentum is strong, the MACD histogram will have higher values, causing the MOMA to adjust accordingly and provide earlier entry or exit signals.
Performance on Stocks
This strategy has demonstrated excellent performance on stocks when applied to the 1-hour timeframe. Its adaptive nature allows it to respond swiftly to market changes, capturing profitable trends while minimizing the impact of false signals caused by market noise. The combination of KAMA's adaptability and MACD's momentum detection makes it particularly effective in volatile market conditions commonly seen in stock trading.
Key Parameters
KAMA Length (malen): Determines the sensitivity of the KAMA. A length of 100 is used to balance responsiveness with noise reduction.
MACD Fast Length (fast): Sets the period for the fast EMA in the MACD calculation. A value of 24 helps in capturing short-term momentum changes.
MACD Slow Length (slow): Sets the period for the slow EMA in the MACD calculation. A value of 52 smooths out longer-term trends.
MACD Signal Length (signal): Determines the period for the signal line in the MACD calculation. An 18-period signal line is used for timely crossovers.
Advantages of the Strategy
Adaptive to Market Conditions: By adjusting to both volatility and momentum, the strategy remains effective across different market phases.
Enhanced Signal Accuracy: The fusion of KAMA and MACD reduces false signals, improving the accuracy of trade entries and exits.
Simplicity in Execution: With straightforward entry and exit rules based on price crossovers, the strategy is user-friendly for traders at all experience levels

MACD (Moving Average Convergence/Divergence)
Definition
MACD is an extremely popular indicator used in technical analysis. MACD can be used to identify aspects of a security's overall trend. Most notably these aspects are momentum, as well as trend direction and duration. What makes MACD so informative is that it is actually the combination of two different types of indicators. First, MACD employs two Moving Averages of varying lengths (which are lagging indicators) to identify trend direction and duration. Then, MACD takes the difference in values between those two Moving Averages (MACD Line) and an EMA of those Moving Averages (Signal Line) and plots that difference between the two lines as a histogram which oscillates above and below a center Zero Line. The histogram is used as a good indication of a security's momentum.
MACD Line is a result of taking a longer term EMA and subtracting it from a shorter term EMA.The most commonly used values are 26 days for the longer term EMA and 12 days for the shorter term EMA, but it is the trader's choice.
The Signal Line.
The Signal Line is an EMA of the MACD Line described in Component 1. The trader can choose what period length EMA to use for the Signal Line however 9 is the most common.
The MACD Histogram.
As time advances, the difference between the MACD Line and Signal Line will continually differ. The MACD histogram takes that difference and plots it into an easily readable histogram. The difference between the two lines oscillates around a Zero Line.
A general interpretation of MACD is that when MACD is positive and the histogram value is increasing, then upside momentum is increasing. When MACD is negative and the histogram value is decreasing, then downside momentum is increasing.
What to look for
The MACD indicator is typically good for identifying three types of basic signals; Signal Line Crossovers, Zero Line Crossovers, and Divergence.
SIGNAL LINE CROSSOVERS
A Signal Line Crossover is the most common signal produced by the MACD. First one must consider that the Signal Line is essentially an indicator of an indicator. The Signal Line is calculating the Moving Average of the MACD Line. Therefore the Signal Line lags behind the MACD line. That being said, on the occasions where the MACD Line crosses above or below the Signal Line, that can signify a potentially strong move.
The strength of the move is what determines the duration of Signal Line Crossover. Understanding and being able to analyze move strength, as well as being able to recognize false signals, is a skill that comes with experience.
The first type of Signal Line Crossover to examine is the Bullish Signal Line Crossover. Bullish Signal Line Crossovers occur when the MACD Line crosses above the Signal Line.
The second type of Signal Line Crossover to examine is the Bearish Signal Line Crossover. Bearish Signal Line Crossovers occur when the MACD Line crosses below the Signal Line.
Zero line crossovers
Zero Line Crossovers have a very similar premise to Signal Line Crossovers. Instead of crossing the Signal Line, Zero Line Crossovers occur when the MACD Line crossed the Zero Line and either becomes positive (above 0) or negative (below 0).
The first type of Zero Line Crossover to examine is the Bullish Zero Line Crossover. Bullish Zero Line Crossovers occur when the MACD Line crosses above the Zero Line and go from negative to positive.
The second type of Zero Line Crossover to examine is the Bearish Zero Line Crossover. Bearish Zero Line Crossovers occur when the MACD Line crosses below the Zero Line and go from positive to negative.
Divergence
Divergence is another signal created by the MACD. Simply put, divergence is when the MACD and actual price are not in agreement.
For example, Bullish Divergence occurs when price records a lower low, but the MACD records a higher low. The movement of price can provide evidence of the current trend, however changes in momentum as evidenced by the MACD can sometimes precede a significant reversal.
Bearish Divergence is, of course, the opposite. Bearish Divergence occurs when price records a higher high while the MACD records a lower high.
Summary
What makes the MACD such a valuable tool for technical analysis is that it is almost like two indicators in one. It can help to identify not just trends, but it can measure momentum as well. It takes two separate lagging indicators and adds the aspect of momentum which is much more active or predictive That kind of versatility is why it has been and is used by trader's and analysts across the entire spectrum of finance.
Despite MACD's obvious attributes, just like with any indicator, the trader or analyst needs to exercise caution. There are just some things that MACD doesn't do well which may tempt a trader regardless. Most notably, traders may be tempted into using MACD as a way to find overbought or oversold conditions. This is not a good idea. Remember, MACD is not bound to a range, so what is considered to be highly positive or negative for one instrument may not translate well to a different instrument.
With sufficient time and experience, almost anybody who wants to analyze chart data should be able to make good use out of the MACD.
The added features to the indicator are made for training, it is advisable to use it with caution in tradings.
Market Breadth EMAs V2Second version of Market Breadth EMAs for $SPY. Getting a little more complicated than V1 but removed noise.
Key:
Green line = % of stocks above their 20-period moving average, the "twitch line"
Red line = % of stocks above their 200-period moving average, the "long term trend"
White line = weighted average of the % of stocks above the 20/50/100/200 averages, the "general trend." Captures bursts that the 200 misses, and is more trustworthy than the 20.
Background colors = limits of the red/green/white where reversals have happened historically. The darker the color, the stronger the signal.
Histogram = the change in the white line over time, for different time periods: 1/4/10/20, the "trend strength/confidence." i.e. If the white line "General Trend" has been drifting lower for a month but started increasing the past 2 days, you might have 3 red histograms and 1 green one.
Techniques:
If the green, red, or white line is above 50%, then more than half the stocks are above that average. So, if they're in the top half, bullish market. Bottom half, bearish market.
If the green line is above the red, market has rising/bullish momentum. If red is above green, market has falling/bearish momentum.
If the white line is rising, bullish momentum. If it's falling, bearish momentum.
If the histograms are all green, there is strong momentum in that direction. The % of stocks above their important averages has been increasing each day for both the short term and long term.
If the histograms go from all green to a mix of green and red, be on the lookout for a reversal from one of the background levels. Usually initiates from the 20 (green line) first.
If price dips without the histogram changing, HODL.
CVD-MACD### CVD-MACD (Research)
The CVD-MACD is a research-oriented indicator that combines Cumulative Volume Delta (CVD) with the classic MACD framework to provide insights into market momentum and potential reversals. Unlike a standard MACD based on price, this version uses CVD (the running total of buy vs. sell volume delta) as its input source, offering a volume-driven perspective on trend strength and divergences.
Key Features:
- **CVD-Based MACD Calculation**: Computes MACD using CVD instead of price, highlighting volume imbalances that may precede price moves.
- **Dual Divergence Detection**: Identifies bullish/bearish divergences on both the MACD line and histogram, with configurable pivot lookbacks and filters (e.g., momentum decay and zero-side consistency).
- **Visual Flexibility**: Toggle divergences in the indicator pane or overlaid on the main chart, with optional raw CVD line for reference.
- **Alerts**: Built-in conditions for bullish and bearish divergences to notify users of potential setups.
###This indicator is designed for research and experimentation—it's not financial advice. It performs best on liquid assets with reliable volume data (e.g., stocks, futures). I've shared this to gather community feedback: please test it thoroughly and point out any bugs, inefficiencies, or improvements! For example, if you spot issues with divergence detection on certain timeframes or symbols, let me know in the comments. Your input will help refine it.
Inspired by volume analysis techniques; open to collaborations or forks.
## User Manual for CVD-MACD (Research)
### Overview
The CVD-MACD indicator transforms traditional MACD by using Cumulative Volume Delta (CVD) as the base input. CVD accumulates the net delta between estimated buy and sell volume per bar, providing a volume-centric view of momentum. The indicator plots a MACD line, signal line, and histogram, while also detecting divergences on both the MACD line and histogram for potential reversal signals.
This manual covers setup, interpretation, and troubleshooting.
Note: This is a research tool—backtest and validate on your own data before using in live trading.
### Installation and Setup
1. **Add to Chart**: Search for "CVD-MACD (Research)" in TradingView's indicator library or paste the script into the Pine Editor and add it to your chart.
2. **Compatibility**: Works on any timeframe and symbol with volume data. Best on daily/intraday charts for stocks, forex, or futures. Avoid illiquid symbols where volume may be unreliable.
3. **Customization**: All inputs are configurable via the indicator's settings panel. Defaults are optimized for general use but can be tuned based on asset volatility.
### Input Parameters
The inputs are grouped for ease of use:
#### MACD Settings
- **Fast EMA (CVD)** (default: 12): Length of the fast EMA applied to CVD. Shorter values make it more responsive to recent volume changes.
- **Slow EMA (CVD)** (default: 26): Length of the slow EMA on CVD. Longer values smooth out noise for trend identification.
- **Signal EMA** (default: 9): Smoothing period for the signal line (EMA of the MACD line).
#### Divergence Logic (MACD Line)
- **Pivot Lookback (MACD Line)** (default: 5): Bars to look left/right for detecting pivots on the MACD line. Higher values detect larger swings but may miss smaller divergences.
- **Max Lookback Range (MACD Line)** (default: 50): Maximum bars between two pivots to consider a divergence valid. Prevents detecting outdated signals.
- **Enable Momentum Decay Filter (Histogram)** (default: false): When enabled, requires the histogram to show decaying momentum (absolute value decreasing) for MACD-line divergences to trigger.
#### Histogram Divergence
- **Pivot Lookback (Histogram)** (default: 5): Similar to above, but for histogram pivots.
- **Max Lookback Range (Histogram)** (default: 50): Max bars for histogram divergence detection.
- **Show Histogram Divergences in Indicator Pane** (default: true): Displays dashed lines and "H" labels for histogram divergences in the sub-window.
- **Show Histogram Divergences on Main Chart** (default: true): Overlays histogram divergences on the price chart with semi-transparent lines and labels.
- **Require Histogram to Stay on Same Side of Zero** (default: true): Filters divergences to only those where the histogram doesn't cross zero between pivots, ensuring consistent momentum direction.
#### Visuals (Dual View)
- **Show MACD-Line Divergences (Indicator Pane)** (default: true): Draws solid lines and "L" labels for MACD-line divergences in the sub-window.
- **Show MACD-Line Divergences (Main Chart)** (default: true): Overlays MACD-line divergences on the price chart.
- **Show Raw CVD Line** (default: false): Plots the underlying CVD as a faint gray line for reference.
### How to Interpret the Indicator
1. **Core Plots**:
- **MACD Line** (blue): Difference between fast and slow CVD EMAs. Above zero indicates building buy volume momentum; below zero shows sell dominance.
- **Signal Line** (orange): EMA of the MACD line. Crossovers can signal potential entries/exits (e.g., MACD above signal = bullish).
- **Histogram** (columns): MACD minus signal. Green shades for positive/expanding bars (bullish momentum); red for negative/contracting (bearish). Fading colors indicate weakening momentum.
- **Zero Line** (gray horizontal): Reference for bullish (above) vs. bearish (below) territory.
- **Raw CVD** (optional gray line): The cumulative buy-sell delta. Rising = net buying; falling = net selling.
2. **Divergences**:
- **Bullish (Green Lines/Labels)**: Occur when price makes lower lows, but MACD line or histogram makes higher lows. Suggests weakening downside momentum and potential reversal up. Look for "L" (MACD line) or "H" (histogram) labels.
- **Bearish (Red Lines/Labels)**: Price higher highs vs. MACD/histogram lower highs. Indicates fading upside and possible downturn.
- **Dual View**: Divergences appear in the indicator pane (sub-window) for clean analysis and overlaid on the main chart for price context. Histogram divergences use dashed lines to distinguish from MACD-line (solid).
- **Filters**: Momentum decay ensures only "hidden" or weakening divergences trigger. Zero-side filter prevents false signals from oscillating histograms.
3. **Alerts**:
- **Bullish Divergence (L or H)**: Triggers on either MACD-line or histogram bullish divergence. Message: "CVD-MACD Bullish Divergence detected on {{ticker}}".
- **Bearish Divergence (L or H)**: Similar for bearish. Use TradingView's alert setup to notify via email/SMS/webhook.
- Tip: Combine with price action (e.g., support/resistance) for confirmation.
### Usage Tips and Strategies
- **Trend Confirmation**: Use in uptrends for bullish divergences (pullback buys) or downtrends for bearish (short entries).
- **Timeframe Selection**: Higher timeframes (e.g., daily) for swing trading; lower (e.g., 15-min) for intraday. Adjust pivot lookbacks accordingly (shorter for faster charts).
- **Combination Ideas**: Pair with RSI for overbought/oversold confirmation or VWAP for intraday volume context.
- **Risk Management**: Divergences are probabilistic—not guarantees. Always use stop-losses based on recent swings.
- **Performance Notes**: Backtest on historical data via TradingView's Strategy Tester. CVD relies on accurate volume; test on exchanges like NYSE/NASDAQ.
### Known Limitations and Troubleshooting
- **Volume Dependency**: CVD estimation assumes linear buy/sell distribution based on bar position—may be less accurate on thin markets or during gaps.
- **Repainting**: Pivots and divergences can repaint as new data arrives (common in pivot-based indicators). Use on closed bars for reliability.
- **Resource Usage**: High max_bars_back (5000) ensures deep history; reduce if chart loads slowly.
- **No Signals on Low-Volume Bars**: If CVD flatlines, check symbol volume—some crypto/forex pairs have inconsistent data.
- **Community Feedback**: If you encounter bugs (e.g., false divergences on specific symbols/timeframes), missing alerts, or calculation errors, please comment below with details like symbol, timeframe, and screenshots. Suggestions for enhancements (e.g., more filters or visuals) are welcome!
If you have questions or find issues, drop a comment—let's improve this together!
Volume Cluster Profile [VCP] (Zeiierman)█ Overview
Volume Cluster Profile (Zeiierman) is a volume profile tool that builds cluster-enhanced volume-by-price maps for both the current market window and prior swing segments.
Instead of treating the profile as a raw histogram only, VCP detects the dominant volume peaks (clusters) inside the profile, then uses a Gaussian spread model to “radiate” those peaks into surrounding price bins. This produces a smoother, more context-aware profile that highlights where volume is most meaningfully concentrated, not just where it happened to print.
On top of the live profile, VCP automatically records historical swing profiles between pivots, wraps each segment for clarity, and can project the most recent segment’s High/Low Value extensions (VA/LV) forward to the current bar to keep key structure visible as price evolves.
█ How It Works
⚪ 1) Profile Construction (Volume-by-Price)
VCP builds a volume profile histogram over a chosen window (current lookback, or a swing segment):
Range Scan
The script finds the full min → max price range inside the window.
Bin the Range
That range is divided into a user-defined number of Price Bins (rows). More bins = finer detail, but heavier computation.
Accumulate Volume into Bins
For each bar inside the window, the script takes the bar’s close price, determines which price bin it belongs to, and adds the bar’s volume to that bin.
float step = (maxPrice - minPrice) / binsCount
for i = 0 to barsToUse - 1
int b = f_clamp(int(math.floor((close - minPrice) / step)), 0, binsCount - 1)
volBins += volume
Result: volBins becomes a standard volume-by-price histogram (close-based binning).
⚪ 2) Cluster Detection (Finding Dominant Peaks)
Once the raw histogram is built, VCP identifies cluster centers as the most meaningful volume “hills”:
Local Peak Test
A bin becomes a cluster candidate if its volume is greater than or equal to its immediate neighbors (left/right).
Filter Weak Peaks
Peaks must also be above a basic activity threshold (relative to the average bin volume) to avoid noise.
bool isPeak = v >= left and v >= right
if isPeak and v > avgVol
array.push(clusterIdxs, b)
Keep the Best Peaks Only
If too many peaks exist, the script keeps only the strongest ones, capped by: Max Cluster Centers
Result: clusterIdxs = the set of dominant profile peaks (cluster centers).
⚪ 3) Cluster Enhancement (Gaussian Spread Model)
This is what makes VCP different from a raw profile.
Instead of using volBins directly, the script builds an enhanced profile where each cluster center influences nearby price bins using a Gaussian curve:
Distance from each bin to each cluster center is computed in “bin units”
A Gaussian weight is applied so that bins near the center receive stronger influence, while bins farther away decay smoothly.
Cluster Spread (sigma) controls how wide this influence reaches: low sigma produces tight, sharp clusters, while high sigma results in wider, smoother structure zones.
enhanced += centerV * math.exp(-(dist*dist) / (2.0 * clusterSigma * clusterSigma))
volBinsAI := enhanced / szClFinal
Result: volBinsAI = the cluster-enhanced volume value for each bin.
In practice, VCP turns the profile into a structure map of dominant volume concentrations, rather than a simple “where volume printed” histogram.
⚪ 4) POC from the Enhanced Profile
After enhancement:
The bin with the highest volBinsAI becomes the POC (Point of Control)
POC is plotted at the midpoint price of that bin
if volBinsAI > maxVol
maxVol := volBinsAI , pocBin := b
So the POC reflects the cluster-enhanced profile rather than the raw histogram.
█ How to Use
⚪ Read Cluster Structure (Default = 2 Clusters)
By default, the Volume Cluster Profile (VCP) is configured to detect up to 2 dominant volume clusters within the profile. These clusters represent price zones where the market accepted trading activity, not just where volume printed randomly.
⚪ When TWO Clusters Appear
When VCP detects two distinct clusters, it usually indicates:
Two competing areas of value
Ongoing auction between higher and lower acceptance zones
Treat each cluster as an acceptance zone
Expect slower price action and rotation inside clusters
Expect faster movement in the low-volume space between clusters
Use cluster-to-cluster movement as:
rotation targets
range boundaries
acceptance vs rejection tests
Typical behavior:
Price enters a cluster → stalls, consolidates, rotates
Price rejects at cluster edge → moves toward the opposite cluster
⚪ When ONLY ONE Cluster Appears
If VCP detects only one cluster, or if two clusters visually merge into one:
Volume is no longer split
The market has formed a single dominant value area
Price consensus is strong
Treat the cluster as the primary value anchor
Expect pullbacks and reactions around this zone
Bias becomes directional:
Above the cluster → bullish context
Below the cluster → bearish context
Inside the cluster → balance/chop
This structure often appears during clean trends or stable equilibria.
⚪ VA/LV Extensions
VCP projects two zones from the end of the most recent swing segment:
VA extension = the segment’s highest enhanced-volume bin (dominant zone)
LV extension = the segment’s lowest enhanced-volume bin (thin/weak zone)
A breakout of the VA extension signals acceptance and potential continuation. A retest of the VA or LV extension is used to confirm acceptance or rejection, while rejection from either zone often leads to rotation back toward value.

XAU Macro Regime + Mispricing OscillatorThis indicator is designed to measure the true macro environment behind gold (XAUUSD) and identify when price is aligned with macro flows or mispriced relative to them.
It combines a macro composite index, a mispricing spread oscillator, and automatic divergence detection into one tool.
1. Macro Composite Index (Regime Filter)
The top layer of the indicator constructs a macro regime score derived from:
A basket of gold FX pairs (XAUJPY, XAUAUD, XAUCHF, XAUNZD, XAUSGD)
The inverted DXY (to represent USD pressure on gold)
US30 (to capture global risk appetite and macro sentiment)
Each component is normalized and weighted, then combined into a composite macro index.
A smoothed baseline (SMA) is subtracted from this composite to form the Regime Line.
Interpretation
Regime > 0 (Green background):
Macro environment is supportive for gold.
XAUUSD is more likely to rise, consolidate, or mean revert upward.
Regime < 0 (Red background):
Macro environment is hostile for gold.
XAUUSD is more likely to fall, struggle, or mean revert downward.
This creates a macro trend filter that tells you when it is safer to prefer longs, shorts, or stay out.
2. Mispricing Spread Oscillator (Spread MACD)
The second layer measures the difference between XAUUSD and the macro composite index:
Spread = (Macro Composite) – (Normalized XAUUSD)
This spread is then smoothed into a signal line, and a histogram is plotted from their difference (MACD-style).
Interpretation
Spread > 0:
Gold is undervalued relative to macro conditions.
Macro strength > price strength.
Spread < 0:
Gold is overvalued relative to macro conditions.
Price strength > macro strength.
Spread crossing above signal:
Macro momentum turning bullish relative to price.
Spread crossing below signal:
Macro momentum turning bearish relative to price.
Green histogram: acceleration upward
Red histogram: acceleration downward
This oscillator captures mispricing, momentum shifts, and macro-pressure reversals.
3. Automatic Divergence Detection
The indicator automatically detects:
-Bullish Divergence-
XAUUSD makes a lower low
Spread makes a higher low
→ Price is weaker than macro reality → potential bullish reversal or mispricing reversion.
-Bearish Divergence-
XAUUSD makes a higher high
Spread makes a lower high
→ Price is stronger than macro reality → potential bearish reversal or exhaustion.
Labels (“Bull div” / “Bear div”) appear directly on the oscillator for clarity.
4. What The Indicator Seeks To Do
This indicator aims to answer the question:
“Is gold moving with the true macro pressure behind it, or diverging from it?”
Most gold indicators only watch XAUUSD price.
This one watches:
-gold cross-currency flows
-USD strength
-global risk sentiment
-gold’s relative position vs macro
-mispricing momentum
-divergence between price and macro reality
This creates a unique tool that:
-Detects when gold is overextended
-Detects when gold is undervalued
-Reveals hidden macro strength or weakness
-Highlights turning points and exhaustion
-Shows when a pullback is likely to end
-Shows when a rally is likely to fail
-Gives regime-aware trade direction (long vs short bias)
-Adds divergence labels for precision entries

CoreMACDHTF — Hardcoded HTF MACD Presets with Smoothed Histogram Regime Flags
Summary
CoreMACDHTF provides a reusable MACD engine that approximates higher-timeframe behavior by selecting hardcoded EMA lengths based on the current chart timeframe, then optionally smoothing the resulting histogram with a stateful filter. It is published as a Pine v6 library but intentionally includes a minimal demo plot so you can validate behavior directly on a chart. The primary exported outputs are MACD, signal, a smoothed histogram, and the resolved lengths plus a timeframe tag. In addition, it exposes a histogram rising condition so importing scripts can reuse the same regime logic instead of re-implementing it.
Motivation: Why this design?
Classic MACD settings are often tuned to one timeframe. When you apply the same parameters to very different chart intervals, the histogram can become either too noisy or too sluggish. This script addresses that by using a fixed mapping from the chart timeframe into a precomputed set of EMA lengths, aiming for more consistent “tempo” across intervals. A second problem is histogram micro-chop around turning points; the included smoother reduces short-run flips so regime-style conditions can be more stable for alerts and filters.
What’s different vs. standard approaches?
Reference baseline: a standard MACD using fixed fast, slow, and signal lengths on the current chart timeframe.
Architecture differences:
Automatic timeframe bucketing that selects a hardcoded length set for the chosen preset.
Two preset families: one labeled A with lengths three, ten, sixteen; one labeled B with lengths twelve, twenty-six, nine.
A custom, stateful histogram smoother intended to damp noisy transitions.
Library exports that return both signals and metadata, plus a dedicated “histogram rising” boolean.
Practical effect:
The MACD lengths change when the chart timeframe changes, so the oscillator’s responsiveness is not constant across intervals by design.
The rising-flag logic is based on the smoothed histogram, which typically reduces single-bar flip noise compared to using the raw histogram directly.
How it works (technical)
1. The script reads the chart timeframe and converts it into milliseconds using built-in timeframe helpers.
2. It assigns the timeframe into a bucket label, such as an intraday bucket or a daily-and-above bucket, using fixed thresholds.
3. It resolves a hardcoded fast, slow, and signal length triplet based on:
The selected preset family.
The bucket label.
In some cases, the current minute multiplier for finer mapping.
4. It computes fast and slow EMAs on the selected source and subtracts them to obtain MACD, then computes an EMA of MACD for the signal line.
5. The histogram is derived from the difference between MACD and signal, then passed through a custom smoother.
6. The smoother uses persistent internal state to carry forward its intermediate values from bar to bar. This is intentional and means the smoothing output depends on contiguous bar history.
7. The histogram rising flag compares the current smoothed histogram to its prior value. On the first comparable bar it defaults to “rising” to avoid a missing prior reference.
8. Exports:
A function that returns MACD, signal, smoothed histogram, the resolved lengths, and a text tag.
A function that returns the boolean rising state.
A function that returns a numeric one-or-zero series for direct plotting or downstream numeric logic.
HTF note: this is not a true higher-timeframe request. It does not fetch higher-timeframe candles. It approximates HTF feel by selecting different lengths on the current timeframe.
Parameter Guide

Reading & Interpretation
Smoothed histogram: use it as the momentum core. A positive value implies MACD is above signal, a negative value implies the opposite.
Histogram rising flag:
True means the smoothed histogram increased compared to the prior bar.
False means it did not increase compared to the prior bar.
Demo plot:
The included plot outputs one when rising is true and zero otherwise. It is a diagnostic-style signal line, not a scaled oscillator display.
Practical Workflows & Combinations
Trend following:
Use rising as a momentum confirmation filter after structural direction is established by higher highs and higher lows, or lower highs and lower lows.
Combine with a simple trend filter such as a higher-timeframe moving average from your main script (Unknown/Optional).
Exits and risk management:
If you use rising to stay in trends, consider exiting or reducing exposure when rising turns false for multiple consecutive bars rather than reacting to a single flip.
If you build alerts, evaluate on closed bars to avoid intra-bar flicker in live candles.
Multi-asset and multi-timeframe:
Because the mapping is hardcoded, validate on each asset class you trade. Volatility regimes differ and the perceived “equivalence” across timeframes is not guaranteed.
For consistent behavior, keep the smoothing length aligned across assets and adjust only when flip frequency becomes problematic.
Behavior, Constraints & Performance
Repaint and confirmation:
There is no forward-looking indexing. The logic uses current and prior values only.
Live-bar values can change until the bar closes, so rising can flicker intra-bar if you evaluate it in real time.
security and HTF:
No higher-timeframe candle requests are used. Length mapping is internal and deterministic per chart timeframe.
Resources:
No loops and no arrays in the core calculation path.
The smoother maintains persistent state, which is lightweight but means results depend on uninterrupted history.
Known limits:
Length mappings are fixed. If your chart timeframe is unusual, the bucket choice may not represent what you expect.
Several table and regime-related inputs are declared but not used in the provided code (Unknown/Optional).
The smoother is stateful; resetting chart history or changing symbol can alter early bars until state settles.
Sensible Defaults & Quick Tuning
S tarting point:
Preset A
Smoothing length nine
Source close
Tuning recipes:
Too many flips: increase smoothing length and evaluate rising only on closed bars.
Too sluggish: reduce smoothing length, but expect more short-run reversals.
Different timeframe feel after switching intervals: keep preset fixed and adjust smoothing length first before changing preset.
Want a clean plot signal: use the exported numeric rising series and apply your own display rules in the importing script.

Reversal Correlation Pressure [OmegaTools]Reversal Correlation Pressure is a quantitative regime-detection and signal-filtering framework designed to enhance both reversal timing and breakout validation across intraday and multi-session markets.
It is built for discretionary and systematic traders who require a statistically grounded filter capable of adapting to changing market conditions in real time.
1. Purpose and Overview
Market conditions constantly rotate through phases of expansion, contraction, trend persistence, and noise-driven mean reversion. Many strategies break down not because the signal is wrong, but because the regime is unsuitable.
This indicator solves that structural problem.
The tool measures the evolving correlation relationship between highs and lows — a robust proxy for how “organized” or “fragmented” price discovery currently is — and transforms it into a regime pressure reading. This reading is then used as the core variable to validate or filter reversal and breakout opportunities.
Combined with an internal performance-based filter that learns from its past signals, the indicator becomes a dynamic decision engine: it highlights only the signals that statistically perform best under the current market regime.
2. Core Components
2.1 Correlation-Based Regime Mapping
The relationship between highs and lows contains valuable information about market structure:
High correlation generally corresponds to coherent, directional markets where momentum and breakouts tend to prevail.
Low or unstable correlation often appears in overlapping, rotational phases where price oscillates and mean-reversion behavior dominates.
The indicator continuously evaluates this correlation, normalizes it statistically, and displays it as a pressure histogram:
Higher values indicate regimes favorable to trend continuation or momentum breakouts.
Lower values indicate regimes where reversals, pullbacks, and fade setups historically perform better.
This regime mapping is the foundation upon which the adaptive filter operates.
2.2 Reversal Stress & Breakout Stress Signaling
Raw directional opportunities are identified using statistically significant deviations from short-term equilibrium (overbought/oversold dynamics).
However, unlike traditional mean-reversion or breakout tools, signals here are not automatically taken. They must first be validated by the regime framework and then compared against the performance of similar past setups.
This dual evaluation sharply reduces the noise associated with reversal attempts during strong trends, while also preventing breakout attempts during choppy, anti-directional conditions.
2.3 Adaptive Regime-Selection Backtester
A key innovation of this indicator is its embedded micro-backtester, which continuously tracks how reversal or breakout signals have performed under each correlation regime.
The system evaluates two competing hypotheses:
Signals perform better during high-correlation regimes.
Signals perform better during low-correlation or neutral regimes.
For each new trigger, the indicator looks back at a rolling sample of past setups and measures short-term performance under both regimes. It then automatically selects the regime that currently demonstrates the superior historical edge.
In other words, the indicator:
Learns from recent market behavior
Determines which regime supports reversals
Determines which regime supports breakouts
Applies the optimal filter in real time
Highlights only the signals that historically outperformed under similar conditions
This creates a dynamic, statistically supervised approach to signal filtering — a substantial improvement over static or fixed-threshold systems.
2.4 Visual Components
To support rapid decision-making:
Correlation Pressure Histogram:
Encodes regime strength through a gradient-based color system, transitioning from neutral contexts into strong structural phases.
Directional Markers:
Visual arrows appear when a signal passes all filters and conditions.
Bar Coloring:
Bars can optionally be recolored to reflect active bullish or bearish bias after the adaptive filter approves a signal.
These components integrate seamlessly to give the trader a concise but complete view of the underlying conditions.
3. How to Use This Indicator
3.1 Identifying Regimes
The histogram is the anchor:
High, brightly colored columns suggest trend-friendly behavior where breakout alignment and directional follow-through have historically been stronger.
Low or muted columns suggest mean-reversion contexts where counter-trend opportunities and reversal setups gain reliability.
3.2 Filtering Signals
The indicator automatically decides whether a reversal or breakout trigger should be respected based on:
the current correlation regime,
the learned performance of recent signals under similar conditions, and
the directional stress detected in price.
The user does not need to adjust anything manually.
3.3 Integration with Other Tools
This indicator works best when combined with:
VWAP or session levels
Market internals and breadth metrics
Volume, order flow, or delta-based tools
Local structural frameworks (support/resistance, liquidity highs and lows)
Its strength is in telling you when your other signals matter and when they should be ignored.
4. Strengths of the Framework
Automatically adapts to changing micro-regimes
Reduces false reversals during strong trends
Avoids false breakouts in overlapping, rotational markets
Learns from recent historical performance
Provides a statistically driven confirmation layer
Works on all liquid assets and timeframes
Suitable for both discretionary and automated environments
5. Disclaimer
This indicator is provided strictly for educational and analytical purposes.
It does not constitute trading advice, investment guidance, or a recommendation to buy or sell any financial instrument.
Past performance of any statistical filter or adaptive method does not guarantee future results.
All trading involves significant risk, and users are responsible for their own decisions and risk management.

Overview :
This Pine Script visualizes volume activity and provides insights into market sentiment through the display of buying and selling volume, alongside moving averages. It highlights high and low volume candles, enabling traders to make informed decisions based on volume anomalies. The script is designed to identify key volume conditions, such as below-average volume, high-volume candles, and their relationship to price movement.
Script Details:
The script calculates a Simple Moving Average (SMA) of the volume over a user-defined period and categorizes volume into several states:
Below Average Volume: Volume is below the moving average.
High Volume: Volume exceeds the moving average by a multiplier (configurable by the user).
Low Volume: Volume that doesn’t qualify as either high or below average.
Additionally, the script distinguishes between buying volume (when the close is higher than the open) and selling volume (when the close is lower than the open). This categorization is color-coded for better visualization:
Green: Below average buying volume.
Red: Below average selling volume.
Blue: High-volume buying.
Purple: High-volume selling.
Black: Low volume.
The Volume Moving Average (SMA) is plotted as a reference line, helping users identify trends in volume over time.
Features & Customization:
Customizable Inputs:
Volume MA Length: The period for calculating the volume moving average (default is 20).
High Volume Multiplier: A multiplier for defining high volume conditions (default is 2.0).
Color-Coded Volume Histograms:
Different colors are used for buying and selling volume, as well as high and low-volume candles, for quick visual analysis.
Alerts:
Alerts can be set for the following conditions:
Below-average buying volume.
Below-average selling volume.
High-volume conditions.
How It Works:
Volume Moving Average (SMA) is calculated using the user-defined period (length), and it acts as the baseline for categorizing volume.
Volume Conditions:
Below Average Volume: Identifies candles with volume below the SMA.
High Volume: Identifies candles where volume exceeds the SMA by the set multiplier (highVolumeMultiplier).
Low Volume: When volume is neither high nor below average.
Buying and Selling Volume:
The script identifies buying and selling volume based on the closing price relative to the opening price:
Buying Volume: When the close is greater than the open.
Selling Volume: When the close is less than the open.
Volume histograms are then plotted using the respective colors for quick visualization of volume trends.
User Interface & Settings:
Inputs:
Volume MA Length: Adjust the period for the volume moving average.
High Volume Multiplier: Define the multiplier for high volume conditions.
Plots:
Buying Volume: Green bars indicate buying volume.
Selling Volume: Red bars indicate selling volume.
High Volume: Blue or purple bars for high-volume candles.
Low Volume: Black bars for low-volume candles.
Volume Moving Average Line: Displays the moving average line for reference.

Winning and Losing StreaksThe Pine Script indicator "Winning and Losing Streaks" tracks and visualizes the length of consecutive winning and losing streaks in a financial series, such as stock prices. Here’s a detailed description of the indicator, including the relevance of statistical analysis and streak tracking.
Indicator Description
The "Winning and Losing Streaks" indicator in Pine Script is designed to analyze and display streaks of consecutive winning and losing days in trading data. It helps traders and analysts understand the persistence of trends in price movements.
Here’s how it functions:
Streak Calculation:
Winning Streak: A series of consecutive days where the closing price is higher than the previous day's closing price.
Losing Streak: A series of consecutive days where the closing price is lower than the previous day's closing price.
Doji Candles: The indicator also considers Doji candles, where the difference between the opening and closing prices is minimal relative to the high-low range, and excludes these from being counted as winning or losing days.
Statistical Analysis:
The indicator computes the maximum and average lengths of winning and losing streaks.
It also tracks the current streak lengths and maintains arrays to store the historical streak data.
Visualization:
Histograms: Winning and losing streaks are visualized using histograms, which provide a clear graphical representation of streak lengths over time.
Relevance of Statistical Analysis and Streak Tracking
1. Statistical Significance of Streaks
Tracking winning and losing streaks has significant statistical implications for trading strategies and risk management:
Autocorrelation: Streaks in financial time series can reveal autocorrelation, where past returns influence future returns. Studies have shown that financial time series often exhibit autocorrelation, which can be used to forecast future price movements (Lo, 1991; Jegadeesh & Titman, 1993). Understanding streaks helps in identifying and leveraging these patterns.
Behavioral Finance: Streak analysis aligns with concepts from behavioral finance, such as the "hot-hand fallacy," where investors may perceive trends as more persistent than they are (Gilovich, Vallone, & Tversky, 1985). Statistical streak analysis provides a more objective view of trend persistence, helping to avoid biases.
2. Risk Management and Strategy Development
Risk Assessment: Identifying the length and frequency of losing streaks is crucial for managing risk and adjusting trading strategies. Long losing streaks can indicate potential strategy weaknesses or market regime changes, prompting a reassessment of trading rules and risk management practices (Brock, Lakonishok, & LeBaron, 1992).
Strategy Optimization: Statistical analysis of streaks can aid in optimizing trading strategies. For example, understanding the average length of winning and losing streaks can help in setting more effective stop-loss and take-profit levels, as well as in determining the optimal position sizing (Fama & French, 1993).

I hope you find this Moving Average Cycles indicator helpful in your trading journey. If you have any questions or suggestions for improvement, please feel free to leave a comment below.
RSI ProfileThis indicator shows the RSI profile from historical RSI Value and High / Low RSI Pivots.
It is inspired by the Volume Profile which is a common charting study that indicates activity at specified levels. It plots a histogram on the chart meant to identify dominant/significant levels.
This script is profiling RSI levels into a histogram, which can identify the crucial RSI values in the chart. Along with the pivot options that can help identify the dominant pivot points where RSI values had been rebounding historically.
How to use:
There are three profile types available in the settings. When selecting RSI Values, the indicator will count RSI values from history, and plot the count in a histogram at the end of the chart. If you select RSI Pivots High or RSI Pivots Low, the indicator will count only the RSI Pivot Highs and Lows and plot the count in a histogram. Users can select the Pivot Left/Right length from the settings.
Users can extend the POC line to the left, to study how the values had been reacting to POC
Please note: Since the RSi values range from 0 to 100, the indicator is rounding off the values to absolute numbers. This can cause a situation where multiple POC are identified, to find the unique POC, you can increase the width of the histogram.
The Max/Min RSI settings are for visual purposes only, it can help users shrink down the histogram's top and bottom visibility

THE BASICS
Buy and Sell Signal Arrows
Tack Marks to show how close the next opposite arrow might be- showing possible trend reversals
Standard Bollinger Bands
10-Day SMA Line
Configurable
Open Source
THE NITTY GRITTY
For starters, all values listed below can be changed in the settings. Length of time, as well as source, can be changed. For the Hidden EMA, this can be made visible by increasing its transparency.
ARROWS
The buy and sell signal arrows are based on price and MACD histogram.
The MACD settings are as follows: 10 day fast EMA , 20 day slow EMA , 5 day SMA signal smoothing. Instead of close price, we are using the average point of the day's high, low, and close.
For the arrows, current price and yesterday's price are using hl2 for high/low average.
A BUY arrow is created when:
Current Price IS GREATER THAN Previous Price _AND_ Current MACD Histogram IS GREATER THAN Previous MACD Histogram.
Important Note! Because the MACD Histogram repaints, the buy arrows may appear, then disappear later in the day, if the MACD changes. Check on the changelog to see if I've fixed it by the time you're reading this. (TradingView doesn't let you edit the description after it's been posted)
A SELL arrow is created when:
Current Price IS LESS THAN Previous Price _AND_ Current MACD Histogram IS LESS THAN Yesterday's MACD Histogram _AND_ Close Price is below _EITHER_ the Hidden EMA (default set to 4) _OR_ the Visible SMA (Default set to 10, which is the black line).
The hidden EMA can be made visible by increasing it's transparency in the Style tab.
Including the requirement to only sell if the standard conditions are met, PLUS being below one of those moving average lines, helps to prevent false sell arrows and repainting.
TACK MARKS
The Red Tack is the threshold, or barrier, for the next arrow. It will not move. It is based on previous High/Low/Close Price + MACD.
The Blue Tack is the current point in space for our average Price and MACD Delta Values. It will move throughout the day (or hour or minute depending on your resolution). The Blue Tack will give you an indication of how close or how far from the reversal threshold (Red Tack) the ticker is at that point.
While the Blue Tack is ABOVE Red, the most recent signal arrow will be a buy, and we are in a buy/hold period.
While the Blue Tack is BELOW Red, the most recent signal arrow will be a sell, and we are in a sell/wait period.
If the Blue Tack crosses above or below Red, you'll get the next arrow.
MOVING AVERAGE LINES
There are three moving average lines in this indicator.
The first is black, and is by default a 10-Day Simple Moving Average Line.
This black line is a good safeguard against selling too early. This is a good support line and that's how I use it.
The second is invisible, but can be made visible in the Styling, and is by default a 4-Day Exponential Moving Average Line
The third is the blue 20-Day Bollinger Band line.
BOLLINGER BANDS
The Bollinger Bands are unmodified and are just a background indicator for your use. If you prefer not to see the Bollinger Bands , change their transparency to 0% to hide them. I've cleaned up the Bollinger Bands to make the indicator as a whole- easier on the eyes.
Please leave feedback on how the script works for you, if you run into problems, if you have any changes you'd like to see, etc.
MACD Enhanced [DCAUT]█ MACD Enhanced
📊 ORIGINALITY & INNOVATION
The MACD Enhanced represents a significant improvement over traditional MACD implementations. While Gerald Appel's original MACD from the 1970s was limited to exponential moving averages (EMA), this enhanced version expands algorithmic options by supporting 21 different moving average calculations for both the main MACD line and signal line independently.
This improvement addresses an important limitation of traditional MACD: the inability to adapt the indicator's mathematical foundation to different market conditions. By allowing traders to select from algorithms ranging from simple moving averages (SMA) for stability to advanced adaptive filters like Kalman Filter for noise reduction, this implementation changes MACD from a fixed-algorithm tool into a flexible instrument that can be adjusted for specific market environments and trading strategies.
The enhanced histogram visualization system uses a four-color gradient that helps communicate momentum strength and direction more clearly than traditional single-color histograms.
📐 MATHEMATICAL FOUNDATION
The core calculation maintains the proven MACD formula: Fast MA(source, fastLength) - Slow MA(source, slowLength), but extends it with algorithmic flexibility. The signal line applies the selected smoothing algorithm to the MACD line over the specified signal period, while the histogram represents the difference between MACD and signal lines.
Available Algorithms:
The implementation supports a comprehensive spectrum of technical analysis algorithms:
Basic Averages: SMA (arithmetic mean), EMA (exponential weighting), RMA (Wilder's smoothing), WMA (linear weighting)
Advanced Averages: HMA (Hull's low-lag), VWMA (volume-weighted), ALMA (Arnaud Legoux adaptive)
Mathematical Filters: LSMA (least squares regression), DEMA (double exponential), TEMA (triple exponential), ZLEMA (zero-lag exponential)
Adaptive Systems: T3 (Tillson T3), FRAMA (fractal adaptive), KAMA (Kaufman adaptive), MCGINLEY_DYNAMIC (reactive to volatility)
Signal Processing: ULTIMATE_SMOOTHER (low-pass filter), LAGUERRE_FILTER (four-pole IIR), SUPER_SMOOTHER (two-pole Butterworth), KALMAN_FILTER (state-space estimation)
Specialized: TMA (triangular moving average), LAGUERRE_BINOMIAL_FILTER (binomial smoothing)
Each algorithm responds differently to price action, allowing traders to match the indicator's behavior to market characteristics: trending markets benefit from responsive algorithms like EMA or HMA, while ranging markets require stable algorithms like SMA or RMA.
📊 COMPREHENSIVE SIGNAL ANALYSIS
Histogram Interpretation:
Positive Values: Indicate bullish momentum when MACD line exceeds signal line, suggesting upward price pressure and potential buying opportunities
Negative Values: Reflect bearish momentum when MACD line falls below signal line, indicating downward pressure and potential selling opportunities
Zero Line Crosses: MACD crossing above zero suggests transition to bullish bias, while crossing below indicates bearish bias shift
Momentum Changes: Rising histogram (regardless of positive/negative) signals accelerating momentum in the current direction, while declining histogram warns of momentum deceleration

Divergences: Price making new highs/lows while MACD fails to confirm often precedes trend reversals
Convergence Patterns: MACD line approaching signal line suggests impending crossover and potential trade setup
Histogram Peaks: Extreme histogram values often mark momentum exhaustion points and potential reversal zones
🎯 STRATEGIC APPLICATIONS
Comprehensive Trend Confirmation Strategies:
Primary Trend Validation Protocol:
Identify primary trend direction using higher timeframe (4H or Daily) MACD position relative to zero line
Confirm trend strength by analyzing histogram progression: consistent expansion indicates strong momentum, contraction suggests weakening
Use secondary confirmation from MACD line angle: steep angles (>45°) indicate strong trends, shallow angles suggest consolidation
Validate with price structure: trending markets show consistent higher highs/higher lows (uptrend) or lower highs/lower lows (downtrend)
Entry Timing Techniques:
Pullback Entries in Uptrends: Wait for MACD histogram to decline toward zero line without crossing, then enter on histogram expansion with MACD line still above zero
Breakout Confirmations: Use MACD line crossing above zero as confirmation of upward breakouts from consolidation patterns
Continuation Signals: Look for MACD line re-acceleration (steepening angle) after brief consolidation periods as trend continuation signals
Advanced Divergence Trading Systems:
Regular Divergence Recognition:
Bullish Regular Divergence: Price creates lower lows while MACD line forms higher lows. This pattern is traditionally considered a potential upward reversal signal, but should be combined with other confirmation signals
Bearish Regular Divergence: Price makes higher highs while MACD shows lower highs. This pattern is traditionally considered a potential downward reversal signal, but trading decisions should incorporate proper risk management
Hidden Divergence Strategies:
Bullish Hidden Divergence: Price shows higher lows while MACD displays lower lows, indicating trend continuation potential. Use for adding to existing long positions during pullbacks
Bearish Hidden Divergence: Price creates lower highs while MACD forms higher highs, suggesting downtrend continuation. Optimal for adding to short positions during bear market rallies
Multi-Timeframe Coordination Framework:
Three-Timeframe Analysis Structure:
Primary Timeframe (Daily): Determine overall market bias and major trend direction. Only trade in alignment with daily MACD direction
Secondary Timeframe (4H): Identify intermediate trend changes and major entry opportunities. Use for position sizing decisions
Execution Timeframe (1H): Precise entry and exit timing. Look for MACD line crossovers that align with higher timeframe bias
Timeframe Synchronization Rules:
Daily MACD above zero + 4H MACD rising = Strong uptrend context for long positions
Daily MACD below zero + 4H MACD declining = Strong downtrend context for short positions
Conflicting signals between timeframes = Wait for alignment or use smaller position sizes
1H MACD signals only valid when aligned with both higher timeframes
Algorithm Considerations by Market Type:
Trending Markets: Responsive algorithms like EMA, HMA may be considered, but effectiveness should be tested for specific market conditions
Volatile Markets: Noise-reducing algorithms like KALMAN_FILTER, SUPER_SMOOTHER may help reduce false signals, though results vary by market
Range-Bound Markets: Stability-focused algorithms like SMA, RMA may provide smoother signals, but individual testing is required
Short Timeframes: Low-lag algorithms like ZLEMA, T3 theoretically respond faster but may also increase noise
Important Note: All algorithm choices and parameter settings should be thoroughly backtested and validated based on specific trading strategies, market conditions, and individual risk tolerance. Different market environments and trading styles may require different configuration approaches.
📋 DETAILED PARAMETER CONFIGURATION
Comprehensive Source Selection Strategy:
Price Source Analysis and Optimization:
Close Price (Default): Most commonly used, reflects final market sentiment of each period. Best for end-of-day analysis, swing trading, daily/weekly timeframes. Advantages: widely accepted standard, good for backtesting comparisons. Disadvantages: ignores intraday price action, may miss important highs/lows
HL2 (High+Low)/2: Midpoint of the trading range, reduces impact of opening gaps and closing spikes. Best for volatile markets, gap-prone assets, forex markets. Calculation impact: smoother MACD signals, reduced noise from price spikes. Optimal when asset shows frequent gaps, high volatility during specific sessions
HLC3 (High+Low+Close)/3: Weighted average emphasizing the close while including range information. Best for balanced analysis, most asset classes, medium-term trading. Mathematical effect: 33% weight to high/low, 33% to close, provides compromise between close and HL2. Use when standard close is too noisy but HL2 is too smooth
OHLC4 (Open+High+Low+Close)/4: True average of all price points, most comprehensive view. Best for complete price representation, algorithmic trading, statistical analysis. Considerations: includes opening sentiment, smoothest of all options but potentially less responsive. Optimal for markets with significant opening moves, comprehensive trend analysis
Parameter Configuration Principles:
Important Note: Different moving average algorithms have distinct mathematical characteristics and response patterns. The same parameter settings may produce vastly different results when using different algorithms. When switching algorithms, parameter settings should be re-evaluated and tested for appropriateness.
Length Parameter Considerations:
Fast Length (Default 12): Shorter periods provide faster response but may increase noise and false signals, longer periods offer more stable signals but slower response, different algorithms respond differently to the same parameters and may require adjustment
Slow Length (Default 26): Should maintain a reasonable proportional relationship with fast length, different timeframes may require different parameter configurations, algorithm characteristics influence optimal length settings
Signal Length (Default 9): Shorter lengths produce more frequent crossovers but may increase false signals, longer lengths provide better signal confirmation but slower response, should be adjusted based on trading style and chosen algorithm characteristics
Comprehensive Algorithm Selection Framework:
MACD Line Algorithm Decision Matrix:
EMA (Standard Choice): Mathematical properties: exponential weighting, recent price emphasis. Best for general use, traditional MACD behavior, backtesting compatibility. Performance characteristics: good balance of speed and smoothness, widely understood behavior
SMA (Stability Focus): Equal weighting of all periods, maximum smoothness. Best for ranging markets, noise reduction, conservative trading. Trade-offs: slower signal generation, reduced sensitivity to recent price changes
HMA (Speed Optimized): Hull Moving Average, designed for reduced lag. Best for trending markets, quick reversals, active trading. Technical advantage: square root period weighting, faster trend detection. Caution: can be more sensitive to noise
KAMA (Adaptive): Kaufman Adaptive MA, adjusts smoothing based on market efficiency. Best for varying market conditions, algorithmic trading. Mechanism: fast smoothing in trends, slow smoothing in sideways markets. Complexity: requires understanding of efficiency ratio
Signal Line Algorithm Optimization Strategies:
Matching Strategy: Use same algorithm for both MACD and signal lines. Benefits: consistent mathematical properties, predictable behavior. Best when backtesting historical strategies, maintaining traditional MACD characteristics
Contrast Strategy: Use different algorithms for optimization. Common combinations: MACD=EMA, Signal=SMA for smoother crossovers, MACD=HMA, Signal=RMA for balanced speed/stability, Advanced: MACD=KAMA, Signal=T3 for adaptive behavior with smooth signals
Market Regime Adaptation: Trending markets: both fast algorithms (EMA/HMA), Volatile markets: MACD=KALMAN_FILTER, Signal=SUPER_SMOOTHER, Range-bound: both slow algorithms (SMA/RMA)
Parameter Sensitivity Considerations:
Impact of Parameter Changes:
Length Parameter Sensitivity: Small parameter adjustments can significantly affect signal timing, while larger adjustments may fundamentally change indicator behavior characteristics
Algorithm Sensitivity: Different algorithms produce different signal characteristics. Thoroughly test the impact on your trading strategy before switching algorithms
Combined Effects: Changing multiple parameters simultaneously can create unexpected effects. Recommendation: adjust parameters one at a time and thoroughly test each change

This documentation explains the benefits of the "Multi-Timeframe MACD with Color Mix (Nikko)" indicator for traders and provides easy-to-follow steps on how to use it. Written as of 05:06 AM +07 on Saturday, October 04, 2025, this guide focuses on helping you, as a trader, get the most out of this tool with clear, practical advice before diving into the technical details.
Benefits for Traders
1. Multi-Timeframe Insight
This indicator lets you see momentum trends across 15-minute, 1-hour, 1-day, and 1-week timeframes all on one chart. This big-picture view helps you catch both quick market moves and long-term trends without flipping between charts, saving you time and giving you a fuller understanding of the market.
2. Visual Momentum Representation
The background changes from red to green based on short-term (15m) momentum, giving you a quick, easy-to-see signal—red means bearish (prices might drop), and green means bullish (prices might rise). The histogram uses a mix of red, green, and blue colors to show the combined strength of the 1-hour, 1-day, and 1-week timeframes, helping you spot strong trends at a glance (e.g., a bright mix for strong momentum, darker for weaker).
3. Enhanced Decision-Making
The background and histogram colors work together to confirm trends across different timeframes, making it less likely you’ll act on a false signal. This helps you feel more confident when deciding when to buy, sell, or hold.
4. Proactive Alert System
You can set alerts to notify you when the percentage of bullish timeframes hits your chosen levels (e.g., below 10% for bearish, above 90% for bullish). This keeps you in the loop on big momentum shifts without needing to watch the chart all day—perfect for when you’re busy.
5. Flexibility and Efficiency
You can turn timeframes on or off, adjust settings like speed of the moving averages, and tweak transparency to fit your trading style—whether you’re a fast scalper or a patient swing trader. Everything is shown on one chart, saving you effort, and the colors make it simple to read, even if you’re new to trading.
How to Use It
Getting Started
Add the Indicator: Load the "Multi-Timeframe MACD with Color Mix (Nikko)" onto your TradingView chart using the Pine Script editor or indicator library.
Pick Your Timeframes: Turn on the timeframes that match your trading—use 15m and 1h for quick trades, or 1d and 1w for longer holds—using the enable_15m, enable_1h, enable_1d, enable_1w, and enable_background options.
Reading the Colors
Background Gradient: Watch for red to signal bearish 15m momentum and green for bullish momentum. Adjust the Background_transparency (default 75%, or 25% opacity) if the chart feels too busy—try lowering it to 50 for clearer candlesticks in fast markets.
Histogram and EMA Colors:
The histogram and its Exponential Moving Average (EMA) line show a mix of red (1-week), green (1-day), and blue (1-hour) based on how strong the momentum is in each timeframe.
Brighter colors mean stronger momentum—white (all bright) shows all timeframes are pushing up hard, while darker shades (like gray or black) mean weaker or mixed momentum.
Turn off a timeframe (e.g., enable_1h = false) to see how it changes the color mix and focus on what matters to you.
Setting Alerts
Set Your Levels: Choose a threshold_low (default 10%) and threshold_high (default 90%) based on your comfort zone or past market patterns to catch big turns.
Get Notifications: Use TradingView alerts to get pings when the market hits your set levels, so you can act without staring at the screen.
Practical Tips
Pair with Other Tools: Use it with support/resistance lines or the RSI to double-check your moves and build a solid plan.
Tweak Settings: Adjust fast_length, slow_length, and signal_smoothing to match your asset’s speed, and bump up the lookback (default 50) for steadier trends in wild markets.
Practice First: Test different timeframe combos on a demo account to find what works best for you.
Understanding the Colors (Simple Explanation)
How Colors Work
The histogram and its EMA line use a color mix based on a simple idea from color theory, like mixing paints with red, green, and blue (RGB):
Red comes from the 1-week timeframe, green from 1-day, and blue from 1-hour.
When all three timeframes show strong upward momentum, they blend into bright white—the brightest color, like a super-bright light telling you the market’s roaring up.
If some timeframes are weak or pulling down, the mix gets darker (like gray or black), warning you the momentum might not be solid.
Brighter is Better
Bright Colors = Strong Opportunity: The brighter the histogram and EMA (closer to white), the more all your chosen timeframes are in agreement that prices are rising. This is your signal to think about buying or holding, as it points to a powerful trend you can ride.
Dark Colors = Caution: A darker mix (toward black) means some timeframes are lagging or bearish, suggesting you might wait or consider selling. It’s like a dim light saying, “Hold on, check again.”
Benefit in Practice: Watching the brightness helps you jump on the best trades fast. For example, a bright white histogram on a green background is like a green traffic light—go for it! A dark gray on red is like a red light—pause and rethink. This quick color check can save you from bad moves and boost your profits when the trend is strong.
Why It Helps
These colors are your fast friend in trading. A bright histogram means all your timeframes are cheering for an uptrend, giving you the confidence to act. A dull one tells you to be careful, helping you avoid traps. It’s like having a color-coded guide to pick the hottest market moments!

Statistics plot1. setting the price range
At the beginning of the script, set the price range (interval). Price ranges are used to divide prices into several groups (buckets) and record how many prices have been reached within each group. For example, setting the price range to “10” will divide the price into intervals 0-10, 10-20, 20-30, and so on.
The price range can also be set manually by the user or automatically calculated based on the initial price. This allows for flexibility in adjusting price ranges for different assets and different time frames.
2. aggregate the number of times a price is reached
Record how many times the price reached each price range (e.g., 100-110, 110-120, etc.). This aggregate data is stored in a data structure called an array.
Each element of the array corresponds to a price range, and when a price reaches that range, the corresponding array value is incremented by one. This process is performed in real time, tracking price movements.
3. initializing and extending price ranges
The first bar of the script (when the chart is first loaded) divides the price ranges into several groups and initializes a count of 0 for each range.
When a price reaches a new range, the array is expanded as needed to add the new price range. This allows the script to work with any price movement, even if the price range continues to grow.
4. visualize the number of price arrivals with a histogram
The aggregated number of arrivals per price range is visually displayed in the form of a histogram. This histogram is designed to allow the user to see at a glance which price range is being reached most frequently.
For example, if prices frequently reach the 100-110 range, the histogram bar corresponding to that range will appear higher than the other ranges. This allows you to visually identify price “dwell points” or support and resistance levels.
5. display of moving averages
A moving average (MA) of the number of times a price has been reached is drawn above the histogram. Moving averages are indicators that show a smooth trend for the number of price arrivals and are useful for understanding the overall direction of price movements.
The duration of the moving average (how many data points it is calculated based on) can be set by the user. This allows for flexible analysis of short or long term price trends. 6.
6. price range tracking and labeling
The script keeps track of which price range the current price is located in. Based on this, information related to the current price range is displayed on the chart as labels.
In particular, labels indicate the beginning and end points of the price range, including which range the price was in at the beginning and which range the price reached at the end. These labels are a useful feature to visually identify price ranges on the chart.
7. labeling of current price range
To confirm which price range the current price is in, when a price reaches a specific price range, a label corresponding to that price range is displayed. This label indicates the position of the price in real-time, allowing traders to visually track where the current price is in the area.
8. calculating the start and end points of the range
The script calculates the start and end points of a range with a non-zero number of price arrivals to find the minimum and maximum of the range. This calculation allows you to see where prices are concentrated within a range.
9. out-of-range price processing
When a price reaches outside the range, the script automatically adds the array element corresponding to that price range and inserts the data in the appropriate location for the count. This allows the script to follow the price as it moves unexpectedly.
Scalping with Williams %R, MACD, and SMA (1m)Overview:
This trading strategy is designed for scalping in the 1-minute timeframe. It uses a combination of the Williams %R, MACD, and SMA indicators to generate buy and sell signals. It also includes alert functionalities to notify users when trades are executed or closed.
Indicators Used:
Williams %R : A momentum indicator that measures overbought and oversold conditions. The Williams %R values range from -100 to 0.
Length: 140 bars (i.e., 140-period).
MACD (Moving Average Convergence Divergence) : A trend-following momentum indicator that shows the relationship between two moving averages of a security's price.
Fast Length: 24 bars
Slow Length: 52 bars
MACD Length: 9 bars (signal line)
SMA (Simple Moving Average) : A trend-following indicator that smooths out price data to create a trend-following indicator.
Length: 7 bars
Conditions and Logic:
Timeframe Check :
The strategy is designed specifically for the 1-minute timeframe. If the current chart is not on the 1-minute timeframe, a warning label is displayed on the chart instructing the user to switch to the 1-minute timeframe.
Williams %R Conditions :
Buy Condition: The strategy looks for a crossover of Williams %R from below -94 to above -94. This indicates a potential buying opportunity when the market is moving out of an oversold condition.
Sell Condition: The strategy looks for a crossunder of Williams %R from above -6 to below -6. This indicates a potential selling opportunity when the market is moving out of an overbought condition.
Deactivate Buy: If Williams %R crosses above -40, the buy signal is deactivated, suggesting that the buying condition is no longer valid.
Deactivate Sell: If Williams %R crosses below -60, the sell signal is deactivated, suggesting that the selling condition is no longer valid.
MACD Conditions :
MACD Histogram: Used to identify the momentum and the direction of the trend.
Long Entry: The strategy initiates a buy order if the MACD histogram shows a positive bar after a negative bar while a buy condition is active and Williams %R is above -94.
Long Exit: The strategy exits the buy position if the MACD histogram turns negative and is below the previous histogram bar.
Short Entry: The strategy initiates a sell order if the MACD histogram shows a negative bar after a positive bar while a sell condition is active and Williams %R is below -6.
Short Exit: The strategy exits the sell position if the MACD histogram turns positive and is above the previous histogram bar.
Trend Confirmation (Using SMA) :
Bullish Trend: The strategy considers a bullish trend if the current price is above the 7-bar SMA. A buy signal is only considered if this condition is met.
Bearish Trend: The strategy considers a bearish trend if the current price is below the 7-bar SMA. A sell signal is only considered if this condition is met.
Alerts:
Long Entry Alert: An alert is triggered when a buy order is executed.
Long Exit Alert: An alert is triggered when the buy order is closed.
Short Entry Alert: An alert is triggered when a sell order is executed.
Short Exit Alert: An alert is triggered when the sell order is closed.
Summary:
Buy Signal: Activated when Williams %R crosses above -94 and the price is above the 7-bar SMA. A buy order is placed if the MACD histogram shows a positive bar after a negative bar. The buy order is closed when the MACD histogram turns negative and is below the previous histogram bar.
Sell Signal: Activated when Williams %R crosses below -6 and the price is below the 7-bar SMA. A sell order is placed if the MACD histogram shows a negative bar after a positive bar. The sell order is closed when the MACD histogram turns positive and is above the previous histogram bar.
This strategy combines momentum (Williams %R), trend-following (MACD), and trend confirmation (SMA) to identify trading opportunities in the 1-minute timeframe. It is designed for short-term trading or scalping.

Alert Conditions
Above Average Movement Alerts: Triggered when the duration of the MACD histogram's growth or decline is unusually long, these alerts signal sustained momentum:
Above Zero: Alerts for both growing and declining movements above zero, indicating either continued bullish trends or potential bearish reversals.
Below Zero: Alerts for growth and decline below zero, pointing to potential bullish reversals or confirmed bearish trends.
High/Low Break Alerts: Activated when the histogram reaches new highs or falls to new lows beyond the set thresholds, these alerts are crucial for identifying shifts in market dynamics:
Break Above Last High: Indicates a potential upward trend as the histogram surpasses recent highs.
Break Below Last Low: Warns of a possible downward trend as the histogram drops below recent lows.
These alert conditions enable traders to automate part of their market monitoring or potential to automate the signals to take action elsewhere.

5min stock market property
When I´m using the MACD , I´m just searching for a divergence between Price and the MACD-histogram. I´m not interested in the MACD-signalline or the MACD-line in any way. As you can see, The omission of them leads to better visualisation. It´s much easier to spot a divergence. On the one hand because that way the histogram scales bigger, on the other hand becauce the lines can´t overdraw the histogram.
Rules bullish Divergence: Price makes a lower low, oscillator makes higher low.
Rules bearish Divergence: Price makes a higher high, oscillator makes lower high.
MACD Forecast Colorful [DiFlip]MACD Forecast Colorful
The Future of Predictive MACD — is one of the most advanced and customizable MACD indicators ever published on TradingView. Built on the classic MACD foundation, this upgraded version integrates statistical forecasting through linear regression to anticipate future movements — not just react to the past.
With a total of 22 fully configurable long and short entry conditions, visual enhancements, and full automation support, this indicator is designed for serious traders seeking an analytical edge.
⯁ Real-Time MACD Forecasting
For the first time, a public MACD script combines the classic structure of MACD with predictive analytics powered by linear regression. Instead of simply responding to current values, this tool projects the MACD line, signal line, and histogram n bars into the future, allowing you to trade with foresight rather than hindsight.
⯁ Fully Customizable
This indicator is built for flexibility. It includes 22 entry conditions, all of which are fully configurable. Each condition can be turned on/off, chained using AND/OR logic, and adapted to your trading model.
Whether you're building a rules-based quant system, automating alerts, or refining discretionary signals, MACD Forecast Colorful gives you full control over how signals are generated, displayed, and triggered.
⯁ With MACD Forecast Colorful, you can:
• Detect MACD crossovers before they happen.
• Anticipate trend reversals with greater precision.
• React earlier than traditional indicators.
• Gain a powerful edge in both discretionary and automated strategies.
• This isn’t just smarter MACD — it’s predictive momentum intelligence.
⯁ Scientifically Powered by Linear Regression
MACD Forecast Colorful is the first public MACD indicator to apply least-squares predictive modeling to MACD behavior — effectively introducing machine learning logic into a time-tested tool.
It uses statistical regression to analyze historical behavior of the MACD and project future trajectories. The result is a forward-shifted MACD forecast that can detect upcoming crossovers and divergences before they appear on the chart.
⯁ Linear Regression: Technical Foundation
Linear regression is a statistical method that models the relationship between a dependent variable (y) and one or more independent variables (x). The basic formula for simple linear regression is:
y = β₀ + β₁x + ε
Where:
y = predicted variable (e.g., future MACD value)
x = independent variable (e.g., bar index)
β₀ = intercept
β₁ = slope
ε = random error (residual)
The regression model calculates β₀ and β₁ using the least squares method, minimizing the sum of squared prediction errors to produce the best-fit line through historical values. This line is then extended forward, generating a forecast based on recent price momentum.
⯁ Least Squares Estimation
The regression coefficients are computed with the following formulas:
β₁ = Σ((xᵢ - x̄)(yᵢ - ȳ)) / Σ((xᵢ - x̄)²)
β₀ = ȳ - β₁x̄
Where:
Σ denotes summation; x̄ and ȳ are the means of x and y; and i ranges from 1 to n (number of observations). These equations produce the best linear unbiased estimator under the Gauss–Markov assumptions — constant variance (homoscedasticity) and a linear relationship between variables.
⯁ Regression in Machine Learning
Linear regression is a foundational model in supervised learning. Its ability to provide precise, explainable, and fast forecasts makes it critical in AI systems and quantitative analysis.
Applying linear regression to MACD forecasting is the equivalent of injecting artificial intelligence into one of the most widely used momentum tools in trading.
⯁ Visual Interpretation
Picture the MACD values over time like this:
Time →
MACD →
A regression line is fitted to recent MACD values, then projected forward n periods. The result is a predictive trajectory that can cross over the real MACD or signal line — offering an early-warning system for trend shifts and momentum changes.
The indicator plots both current MACD and forecasted MACD, allowing you to visually compare short-term future behavior against historical movement.
⯁ Scientific Concepts Used
Linear Regression: models the relationship between variables using a straight line.
Least Squares Method: minimizes squared prediction errors for best-fit.
Time-Series Forecasting: projects future data based on past patterns.
Supervised Learning: predictive modeling using labeled inputs.
Statistical Smoothing: filters noise to highlight trends.
⯁ Why This Indicator Is Revolutionary
First open-source MACD with real-time predictive modeling.
Scientifically grounded with linear regression logic.
Automatable through TradingView alerts and bots.
Smart signal generation using forecasted crossovers.
Highly customizable with 22 buy/sell conditions.
Enhanced visuals with background (bgcolor) and area fill (fill) support.
This isn’t just an update — it’s the next evolution of MACD forecasting.
⯁ Example of simple linear regression with one independent variable
This example demonstrates how a basic linear regression works when there is only one independent variable influencing the dependent variable. This type of model is used to identify a direct relationship between two variables.
⯁ In linear regression, observations (red) are considered the result of random deviations (green) from an underlying relationship (blue) between a dependent variable (y) and an independent variable (x)
This concept illustrates that sampled data points rarely align perfectly with the true trend line. Instead, each observed point represents the combination of the true underlying relationship and a random error component.

Heteroscedasticity occurs when the variance of the errors is not constant across the range of fitted values. This visualization highlights how the spread of data can change unpredictably, which is an important factor in evaluating the validity of regression models.
⯁ The datasets in Anscombe’s quartet were designed to have nearly the same linear regression line (as well as nearly identical means, standard deviations, and correlations) but look very different when plotted
This classic example shows that summary statistics alone can be misleading. Even with identical numerical metrics, the datasets display completely different patterns, emphasizing the importance of visual inspection when interpreting a model.
⯁ Result of fitting a set of data points with a quadratic function
This example illustrates how a second-degree polynomial model can better fit certain datasets that do not follow a linear trend. The resulting curve reflects the true shape of the data more accurately than a straight line.
⯁ What is the MACD?
The Moving Average Convergence Divergence (MACD) is a technical analysis indicator developed by Gerald Appel. It measures the relationship between two moving averages of a security’s price to identify changes in momentum, direction, and strength of a trend. The MACD is composed of three components: the MACD line, the signal line, and the histogram.
⯁ How to use the MACD?
The MACD is calculated by subtracting the 26-period Exponential Moving Average (EMA) from the 12-period EMA. A 9-period EMA of the MACD line, called the signal line, is then plotted on top of the MACD line. The MACD histogram represents the difference between the MACD line and the signal line.
Here are the primary signals generated by the MACD:
• Bullish Crossover: When the MACD line crosses above the signal line, indicating a potential buy signal.
• Bearish Crossover: When the MACD line crosses below the signal line, indicating a potential sell signal.
• Divergence: When the price of the security diverges from the MACD, suggesting a potential reversal.
• Overbought/Oversold Conditions: Indicated by the MACD line moving far away from the signal line, though this is less common than in oscillators like the RSI.
⯁ How to use MACD forecast?
The MACD Forecast is built on the same foundation as the classic MACD, but with predictive capabilities.
Step 1 — Spot Predicted Crossovers:
Watch for forecasted bullish or bearish crossovers. These signals anticipate when the MACD line will cross the signal line in the future, letting you prepare trades before the move.
Step 2 — Confirm with Histogram Projection:
Use the projected histogram to validate momentum direction. A rising histogram signals strengthening bullish momentum, while a falling projection points to weakening or bearish conditions.
Step 3 — Combine with Multi-Timeframe Analysis:
Use forecasts across multiple timeframes to confirm signal strength (e.g., a 1h forecast aligned with a 4h forecast).
Step 4 — Set Entry Conditions & Automation:
Customize your buy/sell rules with the 20 forecast-based conditions and enable automation for bots or alerts.
Step 5 — Trade Ahead of the Market:
By preparing for future momentum shifts instead of reacting to the past, you’ll always stay one step ahead of lagging traders.

ROC & Momentum FusionROC & Momentum Fusion
(by HabibiTrades ©)
Purpose:
“ROC & Momentum Fusion” combines the Rate of Change (ROC) with a MACD-style signal engine to identify early momentum reversals, confirmed trend shifts, and low-volatility choppy zones.
It’s built for traders who want early momentum detection with the clarity of trend persistence — adaptable to any instrument and timeframe.
⚙️ How It Works
Rate of Change (ROC):
Measures the percentage speed of price change over time, showing the raw momentum strength.
Signal Line (EMA):
A short EMA of the ROC — responds faster to new directional shifts, similar to a MACD signal line.
Histogram:
Displays acceleration and deceleration between the ROC and its signal line.
Persistent Trend States:
When the ROC crosses the signal line or zero, the indicator enters a new momentum regime
(bullish or bearish) and stays in that color until another flip occurs.
Dynamic Choppy Zone:
When ROC momentum fades within the zero buffer zone, the indicator turns orange, signaling a sideways or indecisive market.
🟢 Visual Regimes
Regime Description Color
Bullish Momentum ROC above zero or signal line 🟢 Neon Green
Bearish Momentum ROC below zero or signal line 🔴 Neon Red
Choppy / Neutral ROC hovering within ±threshold range 🟠 Neon Orange
This color system makes it visually effortless to see whether the market is trending, reversing, or consolidating.
🧭 Adaptive Intelligence
The script automatically adjusts to market type and session for consistent accuracy:
Session Adaptive: Adjusts smoothing based on global sessions (Asian, London, New York, Sydney).
Instrument Adaptive: Fine-tunes sensitivity automatically for major assets — NASDAQ (NQ), S&P 500 (ES), Gold (GC), Oil (CL), Bitcoin (BTC).
Volatility Normalization: Optionally divides ROC by its own standard deviation to stabilize noisy assets and maintain consistent scaling.
🔔 Signals & Alerts
Bullish Reversal:
ROC crosses above its signal or zero line — early momentum flip.
Bearish Reversal:
ROC crosses below its signal or zero line — downward momentum flip.
Alerts:
Both reversal conditions include built-in alert triggers for automation and notifications.
🎨 Visual Features
Main ROC Line: Adaptive EMA of ROC, color-coded by trend regime.
Signal Line: Optional white EMA overlay for MACD-style crossovers.
Histogram: Visual burst display of acceleration (green/red).
Reversal Markers: Optional triangles marking exact crossover points.
Threshold Lines: Highlight the zero and buffer zones for visual clarity.
🧩 Best Use Cases
Identify early momentum shifts before price confirms them.
Confirm trend continuation or exhaustion with color persistence.
Detect choppy / low-volatility periods instantly.
Works across all timeframes — from 1-minute scalping to weekly swings.
Combine with structure, EMAs, or volume for confirmation.
⚙️ Recommended Settings
Setting Default Description
ROC Period 6 Core momentum length (lower = faster response).
Signal EMA Length 3 MACD-style responsiveness (lower = more reactive).
Zero Buffer Threshold 0.15 Defines the width of the neutral zone around zero.
Choppy Zone Multiplier 1.0 Expands or tightens the orange zone sensitivity.
These defaults have been optimized through real-market testing to balance responsiveness and smoothness across different asset classes.
⚠️ Notes
The color regime is persistent, meaning once the line turns bullish or bearish, it remains in that state until momentum structurally flips.
The orange zone represents momentum uncertainty and helps avoid false entries in range-bound markets.
Works seamlessly on any timeframe and with any asset.
