Drawdown from All-Time High (Line)This Pine Script is a **Drawdown Indicator from All-Time High** for TradingView. It calculates and plots the percentage drawdown from the highest price the asset has ever reached (the all-time high). Here's a breakdown of what this script does:
### Description:
- **Drawdown Calculation**:
- The drawdown is calculated as the difference between the current price (`close`) and the all-time high, divided by the all-time high, and multiplied by 100 to express it as a percentage.
- If the current price is higher than the previous all-time high, the all-time high is updated to the current price.
- **All-Time High Tracking**:
- The script tracks the highest price (`allTimeHigh`) that the asset has ever reached. Each time a new high is reached, the `allTimeHigh` value is updated.
- **Line Plot**:
- The drawdown percentage is then plotted as a line on the chart, with a color of **blue** for easy visualization.
- The line shows how much the price has dropped relative to its all-time high.
- **Zero Line**:
- A horizontal line is added at the **0%** level to act as a reference point, which is helpful to identify when the asset has fully recovered to its all-time high.
### Key Features:
- **Track Drawdown**: The indicator helps visualize how far the current price has fallen from its highest point, which is useful for understanding the depth of losses (drawdowns) during a period.
- **Update All-Time High**: The indicator automatically updates the all-time high whenever a new high is detected.
- **Visual Reference**: The 0% horizontal line provides a clear indication of when the asset is at its all-time high, and the drawdown is at 0%.
### How it Works:
- If the current price surpasses the all-time high, the script will reset the all-time high to the new price.
- The drawdown percentage is calculated from the current price relative to this all-time high, and it is displayed as a line on the chart.
### Visuals:
- **Drawdown Line**: Plots the percentage of the drawdown, which is the drop from the all-time high.
- **Zero Line**: A dotted horizontal line at 0% marks the level of the all-time high.
This indicator is valuable for understanding the extent of price corrections and potential recoveries relative to the historical peak of the asset. It is especially useful for traders and investors who want to assess the risk of drawdowns in relation to the highest price achieved by the asset.

Hull MA with Alerts and LabelsThis script is designed to help traders visually track market trends using various types of moving averages (MAs) and to receive alerts when certain conditions are met. Here’s a detailed breakdown of how the script works:
1. User Inputs and Customization:
MA Length: Traders can define the length of the moving average (default is 100).
Confirmation Candles: The trader can specify how many candles must confirm a trend before the script triggers a signal (default is 1).
MA Variation: The trader can choose between different moving average types: Simple Moving Average (SMA), Exponential Moving Average (EMA), Weighted Moving Average (WMA), or Hull Moving Average (HMA).
Source: Traders select the price source for the moving average calculation (e.g., close price).
Ribbon Transparency: Allows control over the transparency level of the ribbon plotted between the moving averages.
Bullish/Bearish Ribbon Colors: The user can choose the colors for bullish and bearish trends.
2. Moving Average Calculations:
The script provides multiple options for calculating moving averages:
SMA (Simple Moving Average)
EMA (Exponential Moving Average)
WMA (Weighted Moving Average)
HMA (Hull Moving Average)
For the Hull Moving Average (HMA), it uses a specific formula that smoothens the movement and reduces lag, which is helpful for more reactive trend detection.
3. Plotting Moving Averages and Trend Ribbon:
The script calculates two key moving averages:
MHULL: The main moving average, selected based on the user’s chosen MA variation and source.
SHULL: A shifted version of the MHULL to help compare trends (shifted by 2 bars).
These two moving averages are plotted on the chart for visualization. MHULL is plotted in green (or another color if changed), while SHULL is plotted in red. A ribbon is drawn between MHULL and SHULL to indicate trends visually. The ribbon changes color depending on whether the trend is bullish (MHULL > SHULL) or bearish (MHULL < SHULL). The ribbon’s transparency can be adjusted for visual clarity.
4. Trend Detection:
Bullish Trend: The script checks if the price has closed above MHULL for the defined number of confirmation candles. If confirmed, a bullish trend is detected.
Bearish Trend: Similarly, the script checks if the price has closed below SHULL for the confirmation period, indicating a bearish trend.
The script tracks whether the market is in a bullish or bearish trend and prevents repeated signals by remembering the current trend state.
5. Alerts and Labels:
Bullish Alerts and Labels: When a confirmed bullish trend is detected (i.e., price closes above MHULL for the entire confirmation period and MHULL > SHULL), the script triggers an alert notifying the trader of the bullish condition. A "BULLISH" label is placed on the chart near the low of the candle where the trend was confirmed.
Bearish Alerts and Labels: If a confirmed bearish trend is detected (i.e., price closes below SHULL for the confirmation period and MHULL < SHULL), the script triggers an alert for the bearish condition. A "BEARISH" label is placed on the chart near the high of the candle where the trend was confirmed.
These alerts and labels help traders act quickly on trend changes and align their trading strategy with market conditions.
6. Practical Use for Traders:
For traders, this script offers:
Customizability : It allows traders to define the length and type of moving averages, choose price sources, and control how signals are confirmed.
Visual Trend Representation : The plotted MA lines and colored ribbons help traders easily see market direction.
Early Warnings : With alerts and labels, the script gives traders early signals when trends are shifting, allowing them to adjust positions accordingly.
Trend Confirmation : The script waits for a user-defined number of confirmation candles before signaling a new trend, reducing false signals.
Overall, the script helps traders automate their strategy by tracking moving averages and alerting them when key trend conditions are met.
Sharpe and Sortino Ratios█ OVERVIEW
This indicator calculates the Sharpe and Sortino ratios using a chart symbol's periodic price returns, offering insights into the symbol's risk-adjusted performance. It features the option to calculate these ratios by comparing the periodic returns to a fixed annual rate of return or the returns from another selected symbol's context.
█ CONCEPTS
Returns, risk, and volatility
The return on an investment is the relative gain or loss over a period, often expressed as a percentage. Investment returns can originate from several sources, including capital gains, dividends, and interest income. Many investors seek the highest returns possible in the quest for profit. However, prudent investing and trading entails evaluating such returns against the associated risks (i.e., the uncertainty of returns and the potential for financial losses) for a clearer perspective on overall performance and sustainability.
The profitability of an investment typically comes at the cost of enduring market swings, noise, and general uncertainty. To navigate these turbulent waters, investors and portfolio managers often utilize volatility , a measure of the statistical dispersion of historical returns, as a foundational element in their risk assessments because it provides a tangible way to gauge the uncertainty in returns. High volatility suggests increased uncertainty and, consequently, higher risk, whereas low volatility suggests more stable returns with minimal fluctuations, implying lower risk. These concepts are integral components in several risk-adjusted performance metrics, including the Sharpe and Sortino ratios calculated by this indicator.
Risk-free rate
The risk-free rate represents the rate of return on a hypothetical investment carrying no risk of financial loss. This theoretical rate provides a benchmark for comparing the returns on a risky investment and evaluating whether its excess returns justify the risks. If an investment's returns are at or below the theoretical risk-free rate or the risk premium is below a desired amount, it may suggest that the returns do not compensate for the extra risk, which might be a call to reassess the investment.
Since the risk-free rate is a theoretical concept, investors often utilize proxies for the rate in practice, such as Treasury bills and other government bonds. Conventionally, analysts consider such instruments "risk-free" for a domestic holder, as they are a form of government obligation with a low perceived likelihood of default.
The average yield on short-term Treasury bills, influenced by economic conditions, monetary policies, and inflation expectations, has historically hovered around 2-3% over the long term. This range also aligns with central banks' inflation targets. As such, one may interpret a value within this range as a minimum proxy for the risk-free rate, as it may correspond to the minimum rate required to maintain purchasing power over time. This indicator uses a default value of 2% as the risk-free rate in its Sharpe and Sortino ratio calculations. Users can adjust this value from the "Risk-free rate of return" input in the "Settings/Inputs" tab.
Sharpe and Sortino ratios
The Sharpe and Sortino ratios are two of the most widely used metrics that offer insight into an investment's risk-adjusted performance . They provide a standardized framework to compare the effectiveness of investments relative to their perceived risks. These metrics can help investors determine whether the returns justify the risks taken to achieve them, promoting more informed investment decisions.
Both metrics measure risk-adjusted performance similarly. However, they have some differences in their formulas and their interpretation:
1. Sharpe ratio
The Sharpe ratio , developed by Nobel laureate William F. Sharpe, measures the performance of an investment compared to a theoretically risk-free asset, adjusted for the investment risk. The ratio uses the following formula:
Sharpe Ratio = (𝑅𝑎 − 𝑅𝑓) / 𝜎𝑎
Where:
• 𝑅𝑎 = Average return of the investment
• 𝑅𝑓 = Theoretical risk-free rate of return
• 𝜎𝑎 = Standard deviation of the investment's returns (volatility)
A higher Sharpe ratio indicates a more favorable risk-adjusted return, as it signifies that the investment produced higher excess returns per unit of increase in total perceived risk.
2. Sortino ratio
The Sortino ratio is a modified form of the Sharpe ratio that only considers downside volatility , i.e., the volatility of returns below the theoretical risk-free benchmark. Although it shares close similarities with the Sharpe ratio, it can produce very different values, especially when the returns do not have a symmetrical distribution, since it does not penalize upside and downside volatility equally. The ratio uses the following formula:
Sortino Ratio = (𝑅𝑎 − 𝑅𝑓) / 𝜎𝑑
Where:
• 𝑅𝑎 = Average return of the investment
• 𝑅𝑓 = Theoretical risk-free rate of return
• 𝜎𝑑 = Downside deviation (standard deviation of negative excess returns, or downside volatility)
The Sortino ratio offers an alternative perspective on an investment's return-generating efficiency since it does not consider upside volatility in its calculation. A higher Sortino ratio signifies that the investment produced higher excess returns per unit of increase in perceived downside risk.
The risk-free rate (𝑅𝑓) in the numerator of both ratio formulas acts as a baseline for comparing an investment's performance to a theoretical risk-free alternative. By subtracting the risk-free rate from the expected return (𝑅𝑎−𝑅𝑓), the numerator essentially represents the risk premium of the investment.
Comparison with another symbol
In addition to the conventional Sharpe and Sortino ratios, which compare an instrument's returns to a risk-free rate, this indicator can also compare returns to a user-specified benchmark symbol , allowing the calculation of Information ratios .
An Information ratio is a generalized form of the Sharpe ratio that compares an investment's returns to a risky benchmark , such as SPY, rather than a risk-free rate. It measures the investment's active return (the difference between its returns and the benchmark returns) relative to its tracking error (i.e., the volatility of the active return) using the following formula:
𝐼𝑅 = (𝑅𝑝 − 𝑅𝑏) / 𝑇𝐸
Where:
• 𝑅𝑝 = Average return on the portfolio or investment
• 𝑅𝑏 = Average return from the benchmark instrument
• 𝑇𝐸 = Tracking error (volatility of 𝑅𝑝 − 𝑅𝑏)
Comparing returns to a benchmark instrument rather than a theoretical risk-free rate offers unique insights into risk-adjusted performance. Higher Information ratios signify that the investment produced higher active returns per unit of increase in risk relative to the benchmark. Conventional choices for non-risk-free benchmarks include major composite indices like the S&P 500 and DJIA, as the resulting ratios can provide insight into the effectiveness of an investment relative to the broader market.
Users can enable this generalized calculation for both the Sharpe and Sortino ratios by selecting the "Benchmark symbol returns" option from the "Benchmark type" dropdown in the "Settings/Inputs" tab.
It's crucial to note that this indicator compares the charts symbol's rate of change (return) to the rate of change in the benchmark symbol. Consequently, not all symbols available on TradingView are suitable for use with these ratios due to the nature of what their values represent. For instance, using a bond as a benchmark will produce distorted results since each bar's values represent yields rather than prices, meaning it compares the rate of change in the yield. To maintain consistency and relevance in the calculated ratios, ensure the values from the compared symbols strictly represent price information.
█ FEATURES
This indicator provides traders with two widely used metrics for assessing risk-adjusted performance, generalized to allow users to compare the chart symbol's price returns to a fixed risk-free rate or the returns from another risky symbol. Below are the key features of this indicator:
Timeframe selection
The "Returns timeframe" input determines the timeframe of the calculated price returns. Users can select any value greater than or equal to the chart's timeframe. The default timeframe is "1M".
Periodic returns tracking
This indicator compounds and collects requested price returns from the selected timeframe over monthly or daily periods, similar to how the Broker Emulator works when calculating strategy performance metrics on trade data. It employs the following logic:
• Track returns over monthly periods if the chart's data spans at least two months.
• Track returns over daily periods if the chart's data spans at least two days but not two months.
• Do not track or collect returns if the data spans less than two days, as the amount of data is insufficient for meaningful ratio calculations.
The indicator uses the returns collected from up to a specified number of periods to calculate the Sharpe and Sortino ratios, depending on the available historical data. It also uses these periodic returns to calculate the average returns it displays in the Data Window.
Users can control the maximum number of periods the indicator analyzes with the "Max no. of periods used" input in the "Settings/Inputs" tab. The default value is 60 periods.
Benchmark specification
The "Benchmark return type" input specifies the benchmark type the indicator compares to the chart symbol's returns in the ratio calculations. It features the following two options:
• "Risk-free rate of return (%)": Compares the price returns to a user-specified annual rate of return representing a theoretical risk-free rate (e.g., 2%).
• "Benchmark symbol return": Compares the price returns to a selected benchmark symbol (e.g., "AMEX:SPY) to calculate Information ratios.
When comparing a chart symbol's returns to a specified benchmark symbol, this indicator aligns the times of data points from the benchmark with the times of data points from the chart's symbol to facilitate a fair comparison between symbols with different active sessions.
Visualization and display
• The indicator displays the periodic returns requested from the specified "Returns timeframe" in a separate pane. The plot includes dynamic colors to signify positive and negative returns.
• When the "Returns timeframe" value represents a higher timeframe, the indicator displays background highlights on the main chart pane to signify when a new value is available and whether the return is positive or negative.
• When the specified benchmark return type is a benchmark symbol, the indicator displays the requested symbol's returns in the separate pane as a gray line for visual comparison.
• Within the separate pane, the indicator displays a single-cell table that shows the base period it uses for periodic returns, the number of periods it uses in the calculation, the timeframe of the requested data, and the calculated Sharpe and Sortino ratios.
• The Data Window displays the chart symbol and benchmark returns, their periodic averages, and the Sharpe and Sortino ratios.
█ FOR Pine Script™ CODERS
• This script utilizes the functions from our RiskMetrics library to determine the size of the periods, calculate and collect periodic returns, and compute the Sharpe and Sortino ratios.
• The `getAlignedPrices()` function in this script requests price data for the chart's symbol and a benchmark symbol with consistent time alignment by utilizing spread symbols , which helps facilitate a fair comparison between different symbol types. Retrieving prices from spreads avoids potential information loss and data misalignment that can otherwise occur when using separate requests from each symbol's context when those symbols have different sessions or data times.
• For consistency, the `getAlignedPrices()` function includes extended hours and dividend adjustment modifiers in its data requests. Additionally, it includes other settings inherited from the chart's context, such as "settlement-as-close" preferences for fair comparison between futures instruments.
• This script uses the `changePercent()` function from our ta library to calculate the percentage changes of the requested data.
• The newly released `force_overlay` parameter in display-related functions allows indicators to display visuals on the main chart and a separate pane simultaneously. We use the parameter in this script's bgcolor() call to display background highlights on the main chart.

Hurst-Optimized Adaptive Channel [Kodexius]Hurst-Optimized Adaptive Channel (HOAC) is a regime-aware channel indicator that continuously adapts its centerline and volatility bands based on the market’s current behavior. Instead of using a single fixed channel model, HOAC evaluates whether price action is behaving more like a trend-following environment or a mean-reverting environment, then automatically selects the most suitable channel structure.
At the core of the engine is a robust Hurst Exponent estimation using R/S (Rescaled Range) analysis. The Hurst value is smoothed and compared against user-defined thresholds to classify the market regime. In trending regimes, the script emphasizes stability by favoring a slower, smoother channel when it proves more accurate over time. In mean-reversion regimes, it deliberately prioritizes a faster model to react sooner to reversion opportunities, similar in spirit to how traders use Bollinger-style behavior.
The result is a clean, professional adaptive channel with inner and outer bands, dynamic gradient fills, and an optional mean-reversion signal layer. A minimalist dashboard summarizes the detected regime, the current Hurst reading, and which internal model is currently preferred.
🔹 Features
🔸 Robust Regime Detection via Hurst Exponent (R/S Analysis)
HOAC uses a robust Hurst Exponent estimate derived from log returns and Rescaled Range analysis. The Hurst value acts as a behavioral filter:
- H > Trend Start threshold suggests trend persistence and directional continuation.
- H < Mean Reversion threshold suggests anti-persistence and a higher likelihood of reverting toward a central value.
Values between thresholds are treated as Neutral, allowing the channel to remain adaptive without forcing a hard bias.
This regime framework is designed to make the channel selection context-aware rather than purely reactive to recent volatility.
🔸 Dual Channel Engine (Fast vs Slow Models)
Instead of relying on one fixed channel, HOAC computes two independent channel candidates:
Fast model: shorter WMA basis and standard deviation window, intended to respond quickly and fit more reactive environments.
Slow model: longer WMA basis and standard deviation window, intended to reduce noise and better represent sustained directional flow.
Each model produces:
- A midline (basis)
- Outer bands (wider deviation)
- Inner bands (tighter deviation)
This structure gives you a clear core zone and an outer envelope that better represents volatility expansion.
🔸 Rolling Optimization Memory (Model Selection by Error)
HOAC includes an internal optimization layer that continuously measures how well each model fits current price action. On every bar, each model’s absolute deviation from the basis is recorded into a rolling memory window. The script then compares total accumulated error between fast and slow models and prefers the one with lower recent error.
This approach does not attempt curve fitting on multiple parameters. It focuses on a simple, interpretable metric: “Which model has tracked price more accurately over the last X bars?”
Additionally:
If the regime is Mean Reversion, the script explicitly prioritizes the fast model, ensuring responsiveness when reversals matter most.
🔸 Optional Output Smoothing (User-Selectable)
The final selected channel can be smoothed using your choice of:
- SMA
- EMA
- HMA
- RMA
This affects the plotted midline and all band outputs, allowing you to tune visual stability and responsiveness without changing the underlying decision engine.
🔸 Premium Visualization Layer (Inner Core + Outer Fade)
HOAC uses a layered band design:
- Inner bands define the core equilibrium zone around the midline.
- Outer bands define an extended volatility envelope for extremes.
Gradient fills and line styling help separate the core from the extremes while staying visually clean. The midline includes a subtle glow effect for clarity.
🔸 Adaptive Bar Tinting Strength (Regime Intensity)
Bar coloring dynamically adjusts transparency based on how far the Hurst value is from 0.5. When market behavior is more decisively trending or mean-reverting, the tint becomes more pronounced. When behavior is closer to random, the tint becomes more subtle.
🔸 Mean-Reversion Signal Layer
Mean-reversion signals are enabled when the environment is not classified as Trending:
- Buy when price crosses back above the lower outer band
- Sell when price crosses back below the upper outer band
This is intentionally a “return to channel” logic rather than a breakout logic, aligning signals with mean-reversion behavior and avoiding signals in strongly trending regimes by default.
🔸 Minimalist Dashboard (HUD)
A compact table displays:
- Current regime classification
- Smoothed Hurst value
- Which model is currently preferred (Fast or Slow)
- Trend flow direction (based on midline slope)
🔹 Calculations
1) Robust Hurst Exponent (R/S Analysis)
The script estimates Hurst using a Rescaled Range approach on log returns. It builds a returns array, computes mean, cumulative deviation range (R), standard deviation (S), then converts RS into a Hurst exponent.
calc_robust_hurst(int length) =>
float r = math.log(close / close )
float returns = array.new_float(length)
for i = 0 to length - 1
array.set(returns, i, r )
float mean = array.avg(returns)
float cumDev = 0.0
float maxCD = -1.0e10
float minCD = 1.0e10
float sumSqDiff = 0.0
for i = 0 to length - 1
float val = array.get(returns, i)
sumSqDiff += math.pow(val - mean, 2)
cumDev += (val - mean)
if cumDev > maxCD
maxCD := cumDev
if cumDev < minCD
minCD := cumDev
float R = maxCD - minCD
float S = math.sqrt(sumSqDiff / length)
float RS = (S == 0) ? 0.0 : (R / S)
float hurst = (RS > 0) ? (math.log10(RS) / math.log10(length)) : 0.5
hurst
This design avoids simplistic proxies and attempts to reflect persistence (trend tendency) vs anti-persistence (mean reversion tendency) from the underlying return structure.
2) Hurst Smoothing
Raw Hurst values can be noisy, so the script applies EMA smoothing before regime decisions.
float rawHurst = calc_robust_hurst(i_hurstLen)
float hVal = ta.ema(rawHurst, i_smoothHurst)
This stabilized hVal is the value used across regime classification, dynamic visuals, and the HUD display.
3) Regime Classification
The smoothed Hurst reading is compared to user thresholds to label the environment.
string regime = "NEUTRAL"
if hVal > i_trendZone
regime := "TRENDING"
else if hVal < i_chopZone
regime := "MEAN REV"
Higher Hurst implies more persistence, so the indicator treats it as a trend environment.
Lower Hurst implies more mean-reverting behavior, so the indicator enables MR logic and emphasizes faster adaptation.
4) Dual Channel Models (Fast and Slow)
HOAC computes two candidate channel structures in parallel. Each model is a WMA basis with volatility envelopes derived from standard deviation. Inner and outer bands are created using different multipliers.
Fast model (more reactive):
float fastBasis = ta.wma(close, 20)
float fastDev = ta.stdev(close, 20)
ChannelObj fastM = ChannelObj.new(fastBasis, fastBasis + fastDev * 2.0, fastBasis - fastDev * 2.0, fastBasis + fastDev * 1.0, fastBasis - fastDev * 1.0, math.abs(close - fastBasis))
Slow model (more stable):
float slowBasis = ta.wma(close, 50)
float slowDev = ta.stdev(close, 50)
ChannelObj slowM = ChannelObj.new(slowBasis, slowBasis + slowDev * 2.5, slowBasis - slowDev * 2.5, slowBasis + slowDev * 1.25, slowBasis - slowDev * 1.25, math.abs(close - slowBasis))
Both models store their structure in a ChannelObj type, including the instantaneous tracking error (abs(close - basis)).
5) Rolling Error Memory and Model Preference
To decide which model fits current conditions better, the script stores recent errors into rolling arrays and compares cumulative error totals.
var float errFast = array.new_float()
var float errSlow = array.new_float()
update_error(float errArr, float error, int maxLen) =>
errArr.unshift(error)
if errArr.size() > maxLen
errArr.pop()
Each bar updates both error histories and computes which model has lower recent accumulated error.
update_error(errFast, fastM.error, i_optLookback)
update_error(errSlow, slowM.error, i_optLookback)
bool preferFast = errFast.sum() < errSlow.sum()
This is an interpretable optimization approach: it does not attempt to brute-force parameters, it simply prefers the model that has tracked price more closely over the last i_optLookback bars.
6) Winner Selection Logic (Regime-Aware Hybrid)
The final model selection uses both regime and rolling error performance.
ChannelObj winner = regime == "MEAN REV" ? fastM : (preferFast ? fastM : slowM)
rawMid := winner.mid
rawUp := winner.upper
rawDn := winner.lower
rawUpInner := winner.upper_inner
rawDnInner := winner.lower_inner
In Mean Reversion, the script forces the fast model to ensure responsiveness.
Otherwise, it selects the lowest-error model between fast and slow.
7) Optional Output Smoothing
After the winner is selected, the script optionally smooths the final channel outputs using the chosen moving average type.
smooth(float src, string type, int len) =>
switch type
"SMA" => ta.sma(src, len)
"EMA" => ta.ema(src, len)
"HMA" => ta.hma(src, len)
"RMA" => ta.rma(src, len)
=> src
float finalMid = i_enableSmooth ? smooth(rawMid, i_smoothType, i_smoothLen) : rawMid
float finalUp = i_enableSmooth ? smooth(rawUp, i_smoothType, i_smoothLen) : rawUp
float finalDn = i_enableSmooth ? smooth(rawDn, i_smoothType, i_smoothLen) : rawDn
float finalUpInner = i_enableSmooth ? smooth(rawUpInner, i_smoothType, i_smoothLen) : rawUpInner
float finalDnInner = i_enableSmooth ? smooth(rawDnInner, i_smoothType, i_smoothLen) : rawDnInner
This preserves decision integrity since smoothing happens after model selection, not before.
8) Dynamic Visual Intensity From Hurst
Transparency is derived from the distance of hVal to 0.5, so stronger behavioral regimes appear with clearer tints.
int dynTrans = int(math.max(20, math.min(80, 100 - (math.abs(hVal - 0.5) * 200))))

Consolidation Zones Volume Delta | Flux ChartsGENERAL OVERVIEW:
The Consolidation Zones Volume Delta | Flux Charts indicator is designed to identify and visualize consolidation zones on the chart. Rather than only outlining areas of sideways price movement, the indicator analyzes volume activity occurring inside each consolidation zone. This is done by aggregating lower-timeframe volume data into the higher-timeframe consolidation range, allowing users to see how buying and selling activity evolves while price remains in a range.
What is the theory behind the indicator?:
The indicator is built around three core analytical concepts that guide how consolidation zones are detected and evaluated.
1. Consolidation as a structural phase
Periods of consolidation are characterized by reduced directional movement and compressed price ranges. During these phases, price action often alternates within a defined high–low boundary, creating a structure that can be objectively measured and tracked over time.
2. Volume behavior inside consolidation
While price may appear balanced within a consolidation range, volume activity inside that range can vary. The indicator evaluates volume contributions occurring within the vertical boundaries of the consolidation zone by using lower-timeframe data and weighting each candle’s volume based on its overlap with the zone. This produces an internal volume delta profile that reflects how buying and selling volume accumulates throughout the consolidation.
Delta behavior inside a zone may show:
Persistent dominance of buying or selling volume
Alternating shifts between buyers and sellers
Periods of relatively balanced participation
3. Markets consolidate in multiple ways, one detection method is not enough
Markets do not consolidate in a single, uniform way. To account for this, the indicator includes three distinct consolidation detection methods. Each method is calculated objectively, does not repaint, and targets a different type of sideways or low-expansion price behavior:
Candle Compression
ADX Low Trend Strength
Visual Range Boundaries
CONSOLIDATION ZONES VOLUME DELTA FEATURES:
The Consolidation Zones Volume Delta indicator includes 4 main features:
Consolidation Zones
Volume Delta
Standard Deviation Bands
Alerts
CONSOLIDATION ZONES:
🔹What is a Consolidation Zone?
A consolidation zone is a defined price range where market movement becomes compressed and price remains contained within clear upper and lower boundaries for a sustained period of time. During this phase, price does not establish a strong directional trend and instead oscillates within a relatively narrow range.
🔹Consolidation Zone Detection
The indicator automatically detects consolidation zones using three independent, rule-based methods. Each method evaluates a different market condition and can be selected individually depending on how you want consolidation to be defined. Regardless of the method used, all zones are calculated objectively and finalized once confirmed.
◇ Candles (Candle Compression)
The Candles method identifies consolidation by detecting periods of candle compression and reduced range expansion. A candle is considered part of a consolidation sequence when:
The candle body is small relative to its total range
The candle’s high–low range is smaller than the short-term Average True Range (ATR)
ATR is calculated using a 4-period average true range and is used as a volatility reference. If consecutive candles continue to meet these compression conditions, the indicator increments an internal count.
Under the Consolidation Candles section in the settings, you’ll find two controls.
Min. Consolidation Candles setting
This defines how many consecutive compressed candles are required before a consolidation zone is confirmed. Candle compression is determined using candle structure and short-term ATR, ensuring that only periods of reduced range expansion are counted. Once the minimum threshold is reached, the indicator creates a consolidation zone using the highest high and lowest low formed during the compressed sequence.
Mark Consolidation Candles
When enabled, the indicator highlights candles that meet the compression criteria, making it easy to visually identify which candles contributed to the formation of the consolidation zone.
◇ ADX (Low Trend Strength)
The ADX method identifies consolidation based on weak or declining trend strength rather than candle structure. This method uses the Average Directional Index (ADX) to determine when directional movement is reduced.
ADX is calculated using directional movement values that are smoothed over time. When ADX remains below a user-defined threshold, price is treated as being in a low-trend market. While this condition persists, the indicator tracks the highest high and lowest low formed during the low-trend period.
Under the ADX Settings section in the settings, you’ll find the following controls.
ADX Length
Defines the lookback period used to calculate directional movement for ADX.
ADX Smoothing
Controls the smoothing applied to the ADX calculation.
ADX Threshold
Sets the level below which ADX must remain for the market to be considered consolidating.
Consolidation Strength
Defines how many consecutive candles’ ADX must stay below the threshold before a consolidation zone is confirmed. Once this requirement is met, the indicator creates a consolidation zone using the accumulated high and low from the low-trend window.
Mark Candles Below Threshold
When enabled, the indicator highlights candles where ADX remains below the threshold.
◇ Visual Range
The Visual Range method identifies consolidation by detecting clearly defined horizontal price ranges where price remains contained for a sustained period of time. The indicator continuously tracks the rolling highest high and lowest low across recent candles. When price remains inside the same high–low boundaries without breaking above or below the range, an internal counter advances.
Under the Visual Range section in the settings, you’ll find the following control.
Min. Candles in Range
Defines how many consecutive candles must remain fully contained within the same high–low range before a consolidation zone is confirmed. Once this requirement is met, the indicator creates a consolidation zone using the established range boundaries.
🔹Consolidation Zone Settings
◇ Invalidation Method
Users can choose how Consolidation Zones are invalidated, selecting between Close Break or Wick Break.
Close Break: A Consolidation Zone is invalidated when a candle closes above/below the zone.
Wick Break: A Consolidation Zone is invalidated when a candle’s wick goes above/below the zone.
◇ Merge Overlapping Zones
When enabled, overlapping Consolidation Zones are automatically combined into one unified zone.
◇ Show Last
This setting determines how many Consolidation Zones are displayed on your chart. For example, setting this to 5 will display the 5 most recent zones.
VOLUME DELTA:
Delta Volume visualizes how buying and selling volume accumulates inside each consolidation zone. Instead of using the full candle volume, the indicator isolates only the volume that occurs within the vertical boundaries of the zone. This allows you to see whether bullish or bearish volume is dominating while price remains range-bound. The visualization updates in real time while the zone is active and reflects cumulative participation rather than individual candles.
🔹How Volume Delta is Calculated
Delta Volume is calculated using lower-timeframe data and applied to the higher-timeframe consolidation zone.
Each candle’s volume is split into bullish or bearish volume based on candle direction.
Lower-timeframe candles are pulled using the selected delta timeframe.
For each lower-timeframe candle, only the portion of volume that vertically overlaps the consolidation zone is counted.
Volume is weighted by the amount of overlap between the candle’s range and the zone’s range.
Bullish and bearish volume are accumulated over time to form a running, cumulative delta profile for the zone.
🔹Volume Delta Settings
◇ Enable
Turns the Delta Volume visualization on or off. Consolidation zones continue to plot when disabled.
◇ Show Delta %
Displays the percentage breakdown of bullish versus bearish volume inside the consolidation zone. Percentages are derived from cumulative volume totals.
◇ 3D Visual
When enabled, the delta blocks are extended diagonally using a depth offset derived from the instrument’s daily ATR. This creates visible side faces and top faces for the delta blocks, simulating depth without altering any calculations. The 3D effect is purely visual. It does not change how volume is calculated, weighted, or accumulated.
Users can control the intensity of the 3D effect choosing a value between 1 and 5. Increasing this value increases:
The horizontal offset of the delta blocks
The vertical depth projection applied to the volume faces
Higher values produce a more pronounced 3D appearance by pushing the delta visualization further away from the consolidation box. Lower values keep the visualization flatter and closer to the box boundaries. The depth scaling is normalized using ATR, so the effect adapts proportionally to the instrument’s volatility.
◇ Volume Delta Display Style
Controls how bullish and bearish volume are displayed inside the Consolidation Zone:
Horizontal: Volume is split top-to-bottom within the zone
Vertical: Volume is split left-to-right across the zone
◇ Timeframe
Defines the lower timeframe used for Volume Delta calculations. When a timeframe is selected, the indicator pulls lower-timeframe price and volume data and maps it into the higher-timeframe consolidation zone. Each lower-timeframe candle is evaluated individually. Only the portion of its volume that vertically overlaps the consolidation zone is included, and that volume is weighted based on the candle’s overlap with the zone’s price range. If the Timeframe field is left empty, the indicator defaults to using the chart’s current timeframe for delta calculations.
Using a lower timeframe increases the granularity of the delta calculation, allowing volume changes inside the zone to be measured more precisely. Using a higher timeframe produces a smoother, less granular delta profile.
Please Note: Delta rendering is automatically limited to available lower-timeframe data to prevent incomplete or distorted visuals when historical lower-timeframe volume is unavailable due to TradingView data limits.
STANDARD DEVIATION BANDS:
Standard Deviation Bands project measured price distance away from a confirmed consolidation zone using the size of that zone as the reference unit. Rather than calculating volatility from historical price dispersion, the bands are derived directly from the height of the consolidation range itself. Each band represents a fixed multiple of the consolidation zone’s height and is plotted symmetrically above and below the zone.
🔹How the bands are calculated
Once a consolidation zone is finalized, the indicator calculates the zone height as:
Zone Height = Zone High − Zone Low
This value becomes the base measurement for all deviation calculations. For each enabled band:
Upper bands are placed above the consolidation zone’s high
Lower bands are placed below the consolidation zone’s low
The distance of each band from the zone is calculated by multiplying the zone height by the selected band multiplier. These band levels are fixed relative to the consolidation zone and do not recalculate based on future price movement.
🔹Standard Deviation Band Settings
◇ Band 1
Enables the first deviation band above and below the consolidation zone. The Band 1 multiplier defines how far the band is placed from the zone in terms of zone height. For example, a multiplier of 1 plots the band one full zone height above and below the consolidation range.
◇ Band 2
Enables a second deviation band at a greater distance from the consolidation zone. Band 2 uses its own multiplier and is calculated independently of Band 1, allowing multiple expansion levels to be displayed simultaneously.
◇ Fill Bands
When enabled, the area between the consolidation zone and each deviation band is filled with a semi-transparent color. Upper fills apply to bands above the zone, and lower fills apply to bands below the zone. Fills are static and tied directly to the consolidation zone boundaries.
◇ Color Customization
Each deviation band has independent color controls for:
Upper band lines and fills
Lower band lines and fills
This allows users to visually distinguish between bullish and bearish extensions as well as between multiple deviation levels.
ALERTS:
Users can create alerts for the following:
New Consolidation Zone Formed
Consolidation Zone Break
UNIQUENESS:
This indicator combines multiple consolidation detection methods with lower-timeframe volume delta analysis inside each consolidation zone. It visualizes bullish and bearish volume using weighted overlap logic and optional 3D rendering for improved clarity. Users can choose how volume is displayed, apply structure-based deviation bands, and enable alerts for new zones and zone breaks. All features are rule-based, configurable, and designed to work together within a single framework.

Utilizing z-score methodology for overbought/oversold detection and dynamic color gradients reflecting change magnitude, this indicator delivers institutional-grade market liquidity assessment through stablecoin flow analysis. The system's dual-timeframe approach combined with statistical normalization provides comprehensive market sentiment measurement based on capital inflows and outflows from the dominant stablecoin.
🔶 Advanced Market Cap Tracking Framework
Implements daily USDT market capitalization monitoring with dual-period change calculations measuring both 1-day and 60-day net capital flows. The system retrieves real-time CRYPTOCAP:USDT data on daily timeframe resolution, calculating absolute dollar changes to quantify stablecoin supply expansion or contraction as primary market liquidity indicator.
// Core Market Cap Analysis
USDT = request.security("CRYPTOCAP:USDT", "D", close)
USDT_60D_Change = USDT - USDT
USDT_1D_Change = USDT - USDT
🔶 Dynamic Gradient Intensity System
Features sophisticated color gradient engine that intensifies visual representation based on change magnitude relative to recent extremes. The system normalizes current 60-day change against configurable lookback period maximum, applying gradient strength calculation to transition colors from neutral tones through progressively intense blues (negative) or reds (positive) based on flow direction and magnitude.
🔶 Statistical Z-Score Normalization Engine
Implements comprehensive z-score calculation framework that normalizes 60-day market cap changes using rolling mean and standard deviation for objective overbought/oversold determination. The system applies statistical normalization over configurable periods, enabling cross-temporal comparison and threshold-based regime identification independent of absolute market cap levels.
// Z-Score Normalization
Change_Mean = ta.sma(USDT_60D_Change, Normalization_Length)
Change_StdDev = ta.stdev(USDT_60D_Change, Normalization_Length)
Z_Score = Change_StdDev > 0 ? (USDT_60D_Change - Change_Mean) / Change_StdDev : 0.0
🔶 Multi-Tier Threshold Detection System
Provides four-level regime classification including standard overbought (+1.5σ), standard oversold (-1.5σ), extreme overbought (+2.5σ), and extreme oversold (-2.5σ) thresholds with configurable adjustment. The system identifies market liquidity extremes when stablecoin inflows or outflows reach statistically significant levels, indicating potential market turning points or trend exhaustion.
🔶 Dual-Timeframe Flow Visualization
Features layered area plots displaying both 60-day strategic flows and 1-day tactical movements with distinct color coding for instant flow direction assessment. The system overlays short-term daily changes on longer-term 60-day trends, enabling traders to identify divergences between tactical and strategic capital flows into or out of stablecoin reserves.
🔶 Gradient Color Psychology Framework
Implements intuitive color scheme where red gradients indicate capital inflow (bullish for crypto as USDT supply expands for buying) and blue gradients show capital outflow (bearish as USDT is redeemed). The intensity progression from pale to vivid colors communicates flow magnitude, with extreme colors signaling statistically significant liquidity events requiring attention.
🔶 Background Zone Highlighting System
Provides subtle background coloring when z-score breaches overbought or oversold thresholds, creating visual alerts without obscuring primary data. The system applies translucent red backgrounds during overbought conditions and blue during oversold states, enabling instant regime recognition across chart timeframes.
🔶 Configurable Normalization Architecture
Features adjustable gradient lookback and statistical normalization periods enabling optimization across different market cycles and trading timeframes. The system allows traders to calibrate sensitivity by modifying the window used for maximum change detection (gradient) and mean/standard deviation calculation (z-score), adapting to volatile or stable market regimes.
🔶 Market Liquidity Interpretation Framework
Tracks USDT supply changes as proxy for overall cryptocurrency market liquidity conditions, where expanding market cap indicates fresh capital entering crypto markets and contracting cap suggests capital flight. The system provides leading indicator properties as large stablecoin inflows often precede major market rallies while outflows may signal distribution phases.
🔶 Why Choose USDT Market Cap Change ?
This indicator delivers sophisticated stablecoin flow analysis through statistical normalization and gradient visualization of USDT market capitalization changes. Unlike traditional market sentiment indicators that rely on price action alone, this tool measures actual capital flows through the dominant stablecoin, providing objective assessment of market liquidity conditions. The combination of dual-timeframe tracking, z-score normalization for overbought/oversold detection, and intensity-based gradient coloring makes it essential for traders seeking macro-level market assessment and regime change detection across cryptocurrency markets. The indicator excels at identifying liquidity extremes that often precede major market reversals or trend accelerations.

Buy Sell SignalBuy Sell Signal - EMA Crossover with Dynamic Risk Management
OVERVIEW
This indicator combines a dual EMA crossover system with ATR-based dynamic stop loss and take profit levels to provide complete trade management signals. Unlike basic EMA crossover scripts, this tool automatically calculates and displays entry points, stop losses, and take profit targets based on market volatility, offering traders a complete trading framework in a single indicator.
HOW IT WORKS
The indicator uses three core components working together:
Trend Detection: A fast EMA (default 5) and slow EMA (default 13) identify trend direction. When the fast EMA crosses above the slow EMA, it signals bullish momentum; when it crosses below, it signals bearish momentum.
Entry Validation: Optional candle confirmation filter ensures the crossover is accompanied by a bullish/bearish candle close, reducing false signals in choppy markets.
Risk Management: Uses ATR (Average True Range, default 14 periods) to calculate:
Stop Loss: Positioned below/above recent swing low/high minus ATR multiplier (default 0.5x)
Take Profit: Calculated using customizable risk-reward ratio (default 3:1)
KEY FEATURES
✅ Automatic Position Tracking: Monitors active trades and displays current position status (LONG/SHORT/No position)
✅ Visual Trade Management: Shows entry price (white dashed line), stop loss (red line), and take profit (green line) in real-time
✅ Trade Outcome Signals: Displays clear markers when TP is hit (🎯), SL is triggered (❌), or position is invalidated by opposite signal
✅ Information Dashboard: Live table showing entry price, SL, TP, and actual R:R ratio
✅ Smart Position Invalidation: Automatically closes and invalidates previous positions when opposite trend signal appears
✅ Customizable Alerts: Five alert conditions for BUY/SELL signals, TP hits, SL triggers, and invalidations
INPUTS
Fast EMA Length (default 5): Responsive to recent price action
Slow EMA Length (default 13): Defines broader trend direction
ATR Period (default 14): Volatility measurement period
SL Multiplier (default 0.5): Distance from swing point to stop loss
Risk:Reward Ratio (default 3.0): Target profit relative to risk
Candle Confirmation (default ON): Requires bullish/bearish candle on crossover
HOW TO USE
Apply the indicator to your chart (works on all timeframes)
Adjust EMA periods based on your trading style (shorter for scalping, longer for swing trading)
Set your preferred risk-reward ratio
Enable alerts for automated notifications
When a BUY/SELL signal appears, the indicator automatically calculates and displays your complete trade plan
Monitor the information table for live position updates
Exit when TP is reached or SL is triggered
TRADING METHODOLOGY
This script implements a momentum-following strategy based on exponential moving average crossovers, enhanced with volatility-adjusted risk parameters. The ATR-based stop loss adapts to market conditions—wider stops in volatile markets, tighter stops in calm markets. The position invalidation feature prevents traders from holding outdated positions when market sentiment shifts.
BEST PRACTICES
Use on trending markets for best results
Higher timeframes (4H, Daily) produce fewer but more reliable signals.
For scalpe use 5 and 15 minutes(Risk).
Consider market context and fundamental factors alongside signals
Adjust ATR multiplier based on asset volatility
Test different EMA combinations for your preferred instruments
ORIGINALITY
While EMA crossover systems are common, this script's value lies in its complete integration of entry logic, dynamic risk management, position tracking, and automated invalidation—features typically requiring multiple separate indicators. The ATR-based stop loss calculation and automatic R:R visualization provide practical trade execution guidance that basic crossover indicators lack.

Leverage requirements and position amount calculations
Fee-adjusted risk-reward ratios for realistic profit expectations
Break-even price including all trading costs
Individual profit calculations for partial position closures
Detailed Take-Profit Calculation Formula:
The take-profit prices are calculated using the following mathematical formula:
// Core variables:
// risk_amount = account_size * (risk_percentage / 100)
// total_risk_per_share = |entry_price - sl_price| + (entry_price * fee%) + (sl_price * fee%)
// shares = risk_amount / total_risk_per_share
// direction_factor = 1 for long positions, -1 for short positions
// Take-profit calculation:
net_win = total_risk_per_share * shares * RR_ratio
tp_price = (net_win + (direction_factor * entry_price * shares) + (entry_price * fee% * shares)) / (direction_factor * shares - fee% * shares)
Step-by-step example for a long position (based on screenshot):
Account Size: 2,000 USDT, Risk: 2% = 40 USDT
Entry: 102,062.9 USDT, Stop Loss: 102,178.4 USDT, Fee: 0.06%
Risk per share: |102,062.9 - 102,178.4| + (102,062.9 × 0.0006) + (102,178.4 × 0.0006) = 115.5 + 61.24 + 61.31 = 238.05 USDT
Shares: 40 ÷ 238.05 = 0.168 shares (rounded to 0.17 in display)
Position Size: 0.17 × 102,062.9 = 17,350.69 USDT
Position Amount (with 9x leverage): 17,350.69 ÷ 9 = 1,927.85 USDT
For 2:1 RR: Net win = 238.05 × 0.17 × 2 = 80.94 USDT
TP1 price = (80.94 + (1 × 102,062.9 × 0.17) + (102,062.9 × 0.0006 × 0.17)) ÷ (1 × 0.17 - 0.0006 × 0.17) = 101,464.7 USDT
For 3:1 RR: TP2 price = 101,226.7 USDT (following same formula with RR=3)
This ensures that after accounting for all fees, the actual risk-reward ratio matches the specified target ratio.
Risk Management Features
Maximum Trade Amount: Optional setting to limit position size regardless of account size
Leverage Limits: Built-in maximum leverage protection
Fee Integration: All calculations include realistic trading fees for accurate expectations
Validation: Automatic checking that take-profit portions sum to 100%
Historical Tracking: Visual indication when stop-loss or take-profit levels are reached (within last 5000 bars)
Understanding Max Trade Amount - Multiple Simultaneous Trades:
The "Max Trade Amount" feature is designed for traders who want to open multiple positions simultaneously while maintaining proper risk management. Here's how it works:
Key Concept:
- Risk percentage (2%) always applies to your full Account Size
- Max Trade Amount limits the capital allocated per individual trade
- This allows multiple trades with full risk on each trade
Example from Screenshot:
Account Size: 2,000 USDT
Max Trade Amount: 500 USDT
Risk per Trade: 2% × 2,000 = 40 USDT per trade
Stop Loss Distance: 0.11% from entry
Result: Position Size = 17,350.69 USDT with 35x leverage
Total Risk (including fees): 40.46 USDT
Multiple Trades Strategy:
With this setup, you can open:
Trade 1: 40 USDT risk, 495.73 USDT position amount (35x leverage)
Trade 2: 40 USDT risk, 495.73 USDT position amount (35x leverage)
Trade 3: 40 USDT risk, 495.73 USDT position amount (35x leverage)
Trade 4: 40 USDT risk, 495.73 USDT position amount (35x leverage)
Total Portfolio Exposure:
- 4 simultaneous trades = 4 × 495.73 = 1,982.92 USDT position amount
- Total risk exposure = 4 × 40 = 160 USDT (8% of account)

SIP Evaluator and Screener [Trendoscope®]The SIP Evaluator and Screener is a Pine Script indicator designed for TradingView to calculate and visualize Systematic Investment Plan (SIP) returns across multiple investment instruments. It is tailored for use in TradingView's screener, enabling users to evaluate SIP performance for various assets efficiently.
🎲 How SIP Works
A Systematic Investment Plan (SIP) is an investment strategy where a fixed amount is invested at regular intervals (e.g., monthly or weekly) into a financial instrument, such as stocks, mutual funds, or ETFs. The goal is to build wealth over time by leveraging the power of compounding and mitigating the impact of market volatility through disciplined, consistent investing. Here’s a breakdown of how SIPs function:
Regular Investments : In an SIP, an investor commits to investing a fixed sum at predefined intervals, regardless of market conditions. This consistency helps inculcate a habit of saving and investing.
Cost Averaging : By investing a fixed amount regularly, investors purchase more units when prices are low and fewer units when prices are high. This approach, known as dollar-cost averaging, reduces the average cost per unit over time and mitigates the risk of investing a large amount at a peak price.
Compounding Benefits : Returns generated from the invested amount (e.g., capital gains or dividends) are reinvested, leading to exponential growth over the long term. The longer the investment horizon, the greater the potential for compounding to amplify returns.
Dividend Reinvestment : In some SIPs, dividends received from the underlying asset can be reinvested to purchase additional units, further enhancing returns. Taxes on dividends, if applicable, may reduce the reinvested amount.
Flexibility and Accessibility : SIPs allow investors to start with small amounts, making them accessible to a wide range of individuals. They also offer flexibility in terms of investment frequency and the ability to adjust or pause contributions.
In the context of the SIP Evaluator and Screener , the script simulates an SIP by calculating the number of units purchased with each fixed investment, factoring in commissions, dividends, taxes and the chosen price reference (e.g., open, close, or average prices). It tracks the cumulative investment, equity value, and dividends over time, providing a clear picture of how an SIP would perform for a given instrument. This helps users understand the impact of regular investing and make informed decisions when comparing different assets in TradingView’s screener. It offers insights into key metrics such as total invested amount, dividends received, equity value, and the number of installments, making it a valuable resource for investors and traders interested in understanding long-term investment outcomes.
🎲 Key Features
Customizable Investment Parameters: Users can define the recurring investment amount, price reference (e.g., open, close, HL2, HLC3, OHLC4), and whether fractional quantities are allowed.
Commission Handling: Supports both fixed and percentage-based commission types, adjusting calculations accordingly.
Dividend Reinvestment: Optionally reinvests dividends after a user-specified period, with the ability to apply tax on dividends.
Time-Bound Analysis: Allows users to set a start year for the analysis, enabling historical performance evaluation.
Flexible Dividend Periods: Dividends can be evaluated based on bars, days, weeks, or months.
Visual Outputs: Plots key metrics like total invested amount, dividends, equity value, and remainder, with customizable display options for clarity in the data window and chart.
🎲 Using the script as an indicator on Tradingview Supercharts
In order to use the indicator on charts, do the following.
Load the instrument of your choice - Preferably a stable stocks, ETFs.
Chose monthly timeframe as lower timeframes are insignificant in this type of investment strategy

Indicator plots, investment value, dividends and equity on the chart.
🎲 Visualizations
Installments : Displays the number of SIP installments (gray line, visible in the data window).
Invested Amount : Shows the cumulative amount invested, excluding reinvested dividends (blue area plot).
Dividends : Tracks total dividends received (green area plot).
Equity : Represents the current market value of the investment based on the closing price (purple area plot).
Remainder : Indicates any uninvested cash after each installment (gray line, visible in the data window).
🎲 Deep dive into the settings
The SIP Evaluator and Screener offers a range of customizable settings to tailor the Systematic Investment Plan (SIP) simulation to your preferences. Below is an explanation of each setting, its purpose, and how it impacts the analysis:
🎯 Duration
Start Year (Default: 2020) : Specifies the year from which the SIP calculations begin. When Start Year is enabled via the timebound option, the script only considers data from the specified year onward. This is useful for analyzing historical SIP performance over a defined period. If disabled, the script uses all available data.
Timebound (Default: False) : A toggle to enable or disable the Start Year restriction. When set to False, the SIP calculation starts from the earliest available data for the instrument.
🎯 Investment
Recurring Investment (Default: 1000.0) : The fixed amount invested in each SIP installment (e.g., $1000 per period). This represents the regular contribution to the SIP and directly influences the total invested amount and quantity purchased.
Allow Fractional Qty (Default: True) : When enabled, the script allows the purchase of fractional units (e.g., 2.35 shares). If disabled, only whole units are purchased (e.g., 2 shares), with any remaining funds carried forward as Remainder. This setting impacts the precision of investment allocation.
Price Reference (Default: OPEN): Determines the price used for purchasing units in each SIP installment. Options include:
OPEN : Uses the opening price of the bar.
CLOSE : Uses the closing price of the bar.
HL2 : Uses the average of the high and low prices.
HLC3 : Uses the average of the high, low, and close prices.
OHLC4 : Uses the average of the open, high, low, and close prices. This setting affects the cost basis of each purchase and, consequently, the total quantity and equity value.
🎯 Commission
Commission (Default: 3) : The commission charged per SIP installment, expressed as either a fixed amount (e.g., $3) or a percentage (e.g., 3% of the investment). This reduces the amount available for purchasing units.
Commission Type (Default: Fixed) : Specifies how the commission is calculated:
Fixed ($) : A flat fee is deducted per installment (e.g., $3).
Percentage (%) : A percentage of the investment amount is deducted as commission (e.g., 3% of $1000 = $30). This setting affects the net amount invested and the overall cost of the SIP.
🎯 Dividends
Apply Tax On Dividends (Default: False) : When enabled, a tax is applied to dividends before they are reinvested or recorded. The tax rate is set via the Dividend Tax setting.
Dividend Tax (Default: 47) : The percentage of tax deducted from dividends if Apply Tax On Dividends is enabled (e.g., 47% tax reduces a $100 dividend to $53). This reduces the amount available for reinvestment or accumulation.
Reinvest Dividends After (Default: True, 2) : When enabled, dividends received are reinvested to purchase additional units after a specified period (e.g., 2 units of time, defined by Dividends Availability). If disabled, dividends are tracked but not reinvested. Reinvestment increases the total quantity and equity over time.
Dividends Availability (Default: Bars) : Defines the time unit for evaluating when dividends are available for reinvestment. Options include:
Bars : Based on the number of chart bars.
Weeks : Based on weeks.
Months : Based on months (approximated as 30.5 days). This setting determines the timing of dividend reinvestment relative to the Reinvest Dividends After period.
🎯 How Settings Interact
These settings work together to simulate a realistic SIP. For example, a $1000 recurring investment with a 3% commission and fractional quantities enabled will calculate the number of units purchased at the chosen price reference after deducting the commission. If dividends are reinvested after 2 months with a 47% tax, the script fetches dividend data, applies the tax, and adds the net dividend to the investment amount for that period. The Start Year and Timebound settings ensure the analysis aligns with the desired timeframe, while the Dividends Availability setting fine-tunes dividend reinvestment timing.
By adjusting these settings, users can model different SIP scenarios, compare performance across instruments in TradingView’s screener, and gain insights into how commissions, dividends, and price references impact long-term returns.
🎲 Using the script with Pine Screener
The main purpose of developing this script is to use it with Tradingview Pine Screener so that multiple ETFs/Funds can be compared.

True Range eXpansion🕯️ TRX — True Range eXpansion
Clean Candle Bodies · Volatility Bands · Adaptive Range Envelope System
Not your grandfather’s candles. Not your brokerage’s bands.
----------------------------------------------------
TRX begins with a simple concept: visualize the true range of every candle, without the noise of flickering wicks.
From there, it grows into a fully adaptive price visualization framework.
What started as a candle-only visualizer evolved into a modular, user-controlled price engine.
From wickless candle clarity to dynamic volatility envelopes, TRX adapts to you.
There are plenty of band and channel indicators out there — Bollinger, Keltner, Donchian, Envelope, the whole crew.
But none of them are built on the true candle range, adaptive ATR shaping, and full user control like TRX.
This isn’t just another indicator — it’s a new framework.
Most bands and channels are based on close price and statistical deviation — useful, but limited.
TRX uses the full true range of each candle as its foundation, then applies customizable smoothing and directional ATR scaling to form a dynamic, volatility-reactive envelope.
The result? Bands that breathe with the market — not lag behind it.

📈 Adjustable High/Low Moving Averages — Select your smoothing style: SMA, EMA, WMA, RMA, or HMA.
🌬️ ATR-Based Expansion — Bands dynamically breathe based on market volatility.
🔀 Per-Band Multipliers — Fine-tune expansion individually for the upper and lower bands.
⚖️ Basis Line — Optional centerline between bands for structure tracking and equilibrium zones.
🎛️ Full Visual Control — Width, transparency, color, on/off toggles for each element.
----------------------------------------------------
🧠 Default Use Case:
With the included default settings, TRX behaves like an evolved Bollinger Band system — based on True Range candle structure, not just close price and standard deviation.
----------------------------------------------------
🔄 How to Zero Out the Bands (for Minimalist Use):
Want just candles? A clean MA? Single band? You got it.
➤ Use TRX like a clean moving average:
• Set ATR Multiplier to 0
• Set both Band ATR Adjustments to 0
• Leave the Basis Line ON or OFF — your call
➤ Show only candles (no bands at all):
• Turn off "Show High/Low MAs"
• Turn off Basis Line
➤ Single-line ceiling or floor tracking:
• Set one band’s Transparency to 100
• Use the remaining band as a price envelope or support/resistance guide
----------------------------------------------------
🧬 Notes:
TRX can be made:
• Spiky or silky (via smoothing & ATR)
• Wide or tight (via multipliers)
• Subtle or aggressive (via color/transparency)
• Clean as a compass or dirty as a chaos meter
Built by accident. Tuned with intention.

Consecutive Candles Above/Below EMADescription:
This indicator identifies and highlights periods where the price remains consistently above or below an Exponential Moving Average (EMA) for a user-defined number of consecutive candles. It visually marks these sustained trends with background colors and labels, helping traders spot strong bullish or bearish market conditions. Ideal for trend-following strategies or identifying potential trend exhaustion points, this tool provides clear visual cues for price behavior relative to the EMA.
How It Works:
EMA Calculation: The indicator calculates an EMA based on the user-specified period (default: 100). The EMA is plotted as a blue line on the chart for reference.
Consecutive Candle Tracking: It counts how many consecutive candles close above or below the EMA:
If a candle closes below the EMA, the "below" counter increments; any candle closing above resets it to zero.
If a candle closes above the EMA, the "above" counter increments; any candle closing below resets it to zero.
Highlighting Trends: When the number of consecutive candles above or below the EMA meets or exceeds the user-defined threshold (default: 200 candles):
A translucent red background highlights periods where the price has been below the EMA.
A translucent green background highlights periods where the price has been above the EMA.
Labeling: When the required number of consecutive candles is first reached:
A red downward arrow label with the text "↓ Below" appears for below-EMA streaks.
A green upward arrow label with the text "↑ Above" appears for above-EMA streaks.
Usage:
Trend Confirmation: Use the highlights and labels to confirm strong trends. For example, 200 candles above the EMA may indicate a robust uptrend.
Reversal Signals: Prolonged streaks (e.g., 200+ candles) might suggest overextension, potentially signaling reversals.
Customization: Adjust the EMA period to make it faster or slower, and modify the candle count to make the indicator more or less sensitive to trends.
Settings:
EMA Length: Set the period for the EMA calculation (default: 100).
Candles Count: Define the minimum number of consecutive candles required to trigger highlights and labels (default: 200).
Visuals:
Blue EMA line for tracking the moving average.
Red background for sustained below-EMA periods.
Green background for sustained above-EMA periods.
Labeled arrows to mark when the streak threshold is met.
This indicator is a powerful tool for traders looking to visualize and capitalize on persistent price trends relative to the EMA, with clear, customizable signals for market analysis.

Understanding Market Dynamics Through Power Balance
At its core, this indicator provides a unique lens to visualize the ongoing battle between bulls and bears:
1. **Relative Strength**: When the buyer line rises faster than the seller line, bulls are gaining strength relative to bears - a bullish signal. When the seller line falls faster than the buyer line, bears are dominating - a bearish signal.
2. **Market Consensus**: Convergence between lines suggests market participants are reaching consensus about price direction. Divergence suggests growing disagreement and potential for stronger moves.
3. **Exhaustion Signals**: Major peaks in either line that are highlighted by background colors suggest moments where one side (buyers or sellers) has reached maximum strength - often precursors to reversals.
4. **Trend Confirmation**: The status indicators (Near, Far, Normal) provide context about the current market phase, helping confirm whether a trend is establishing, continuing strongly, or potentially fading.
Remember:
- Combine signals from buyer/seller lines, distance measurements, and peak formations
- Use appropriate timeframe settings for your trading style
- Monitor the analysis table for additional context
- Consider market conditions and correlate with price action
This indicator works best when:
- Used as part of a comprehensive trading system
- Combined with proper risk management
- Applied with an understanding of current market conditions
- Signals are confirmed by price action and other indicators
