John Ehlers - The Price RadioPrice curves consist of much noise and little signal. For separating the latter from the former, John Ehlers proposed in the Stocks&Commodities May 2021 issue an unusual approach: Treat the price curve like a radio wave. Apply AM and FM demodulating technology for separating trade signals from the underlying noise.

TTM Wave AApplication of the TTM squeeze and the short-term momentum TTM Wave A in action. This is an example where the short-term wave will react faster than the TTM to give you a signal to start building your positions.
This indicator needs to be combined with "TMO with TTM Squeeze" (add to existing pane).
The TTM Squeeze works like a better MACD. There is a zeroline and histogram bars above / below represent positive and negative momo. As the height of the bar decreases when above the zeroline, that is called decreasingly positive momo and as the height of the bar decreases when below the zeroline, that is called decreasingly negative momo. The dots on the TTM Squeeze: Red dots represent consolidation where Bollingers are inside the Keltner Channels and green dots represent a move out of consolidation or "squeeze fire". As price action comes out of consolidation there is a bigger move up/down depending on where momo is heading and where prices are (key support/resistance levels, fib areas). You want to use the TTM Squeeze and A wave TOGETHER - TTM Squeeze is your main momo and your A wave is a short-term momo wave that reacts faster and works as a leading gauge. You need to use them TOGETHER to gauge where price action may be heading. When the TTM Squeeze and A wave move lockstep together, let's say both are decreasingly positive, there is a good probability it continues to move in that direction to the next support levels. TWO bars on the TTM Squeeze of different heights is confirmation that in most cases means it will move in the direction of those bars. So if decreasingly positive, you'll see two darker bars. By the time you get your 2nd bar on the TTM Squeeze, it is often too late or you're losing profit. Way to counter that is after you get one darker bar in the opposite direction of current trend, use A wave to "predict" the next wave, the more A wave histogram bars going towards the other direction, the higher the certainty it will hit. Lastly, using these waves together works best when you look at it on MULTIPLE TIME FRAMES. (Credit for this details goes to Brady from Atlas).
FIR Trend Filter (Sawtooth and Square Waves)Experimental script!
Using sigma approximation with Sine wave to form Sawtooth and Square waves, for a Finite Impulse Response filter.
Higher harmonics make the sawtooth or square wave more "exact", at the expense of more computation. It also makes the filter more "sensitive". I wouldn't exceed 100, but you're the boss.
The default number of harmonics is 20. The length is 20, too. Why? Because we are currently in 2020. Silly, I know.
Feel free to play around with the settings and tune it to your liking.
How to use it is pretty straight forward: Green is trend-up and red is trend-down.

Finnie's RSI Waves + Volume Colored CandlesUsing RSI and 4 exponential moving averages, I created this indicator so that you can spot inconsistencies between price action and RSI. There's a lot of misunderstanding surrounding RSI, most people think if something's 'oversold' buying is a guarantee win. This definitely isn't the case as there's many more variable to consider. In addition, with this indicator, candles are colored based off of volume.
INDICATOR USE:
1. Determine trend
2. Find relative support/resistance
3. Once at support/resistance look for entries:
-RSI crossing over the Short EMA (CYAN) is your fist buy/sell signal
-Short EMA (CYAN) crossing Medium EMA (YELLOW) is your second
-RSI crossing Long EMA (PINK) is your final and most accurate signal
4. Once you've made an entry, you can follow step 3. in reverse for an exit
COLORED CANDLES:
Dark Green candles = Strong Bullish volume
Light Green = Average Bullish volume
Dark Red candles = Strong Bearish volume
Light Red = Average Bearish Volume
Orange/blue means volume is conflicting with price action
I plan to add a Colored DOT over each crossover as a visual buy/sell signal if anyone has any suggestions that'd be great :)

Damped Sine Wave Weighted FilterIntroduction
Remember that we can make filters by using convolution, that is summing the product between the input and the filter coefficients, the set of filter coefficients is sometime denoted "kernel", those coefficients can be a same value (simple moving average), a linear function (linearly weighted moving average), a gaussian function (gaussian filter), a polynomial function (lsma of degree p with p = order of the polynomial), you can make many types of kernels, note however that it is easy to fall into the redundancy trap.
Today a low-lag filter who weight the price with a damped sine wave is proposed, the filter characteristics are discussed below.
A Damped Sine Wave
A damped sine wave is a like a sine wave with the difference that the sine wave peak amplitude decay over time.
A damped sine wave
Used Kernel
We use a damped sine wave of period length as kernel.
The coefficients underweight older values which allow the filter to reduce lag.
Step Response
Because the filter has overshoot in the step response we can conclude that there are frequencies amplified in the passband, we could have reached to this conclusion by simply seeing the negative values in the kernel or the "zero-lag" effect on the closing price.
Enough ! We Want To See The Filter !
I should indeed stop bothering you with transient responses but its always good to see how the filter act on simpler signals before seeing it on the closing price. The filter has low-lag and can be used as input for other indicators
Filter with length = 100 as input for the rsi.
The bands trailing stop utility using rolling squared mean average error with length 500 using the filter of length 500 as input.
Approximating A Least Squares Moving Average
A least squares moving average has a linear kernel with certain values under 0, a lsma of length k can be approximated using the proposed filter using period p where p = k + k/4 .
Proposed filter (red) with length = 250 and lsma (blue) with length = 200.
Conclusions
The use of damping in filter design can provide extremely useful filters, in fact the ideal kernel, the sinc function, is also a damped sine wave.

BreakingDawn [JackTz] V4 (study)Another take on extending LazyBear's WaveTrend indicator. This one eliminates lots of the lost trades on the sudden drop of the price.
Have a look at it and let me know your thoughts.
Zero Lag - ZigZag - JDThis is a alternative version of the well known "ZigZag indicator" but it uses turning points of the Jurik ma
instead of the traditional "pivot points" that are by definition lagging by a large lookback period, the (almost-) Zero Lag ZigZag lags by about 2 bars on average (depending on the candles forming)
The ZigZag pattern can be used to draw trendlines and S/R lines
It can also be used for "wave counting" in a way that reduces interpretation.
If you find other uses, please leave your ideas in the comments!
Shoutout to Everget for the awesome Jurik code!!

RSI|The Wave PrincipleThe Wave Principle | Modified RSI
30 green | 70 red = Strong Movement (Possible Impulse)
20 cyan | 80 Yellow = Strongest Movement
Support and Resistance Level (Trend Continuation)
Uptrend= 40
Downtrend = 60
Break+Retest = BR
Div = Divergence (Change in trend)
--------------------------------------------
This indicator has been modified from original RSI to fit Wave Principle characteristics:
Uptrend Impulsive Wave over 70 RSI it changes color to red, and > 80 yellow stronger impulse | Usually means continuation, at least once more.
Downtrend Impulsive Wave under 30 RSI it changes color to green, and < 20 cyan stronger impulse | Usually means continuation, at least once more.
Once RSI reached these levels, it doesn't mean trend reversal but a correction is expected. If it shows divergence along with an Ending Diagonal, it's a confirmation for trend reversal.
In a corrective wave, levels 40-60 represents support and resistance levels where price won't go further. Indicating Corrective Waves, not as strong as Impulsives.
Prices can breakout RSI trend lines and retest from the other side before continue the new trend as also described in the Wave Principle.

JSE Wyckoff Wave Volume Code// The Stock Market Institute (SMI) describes an propriety indicator the "SMI Wyckoff Wave" for US Stocks. This code is an attempt to make a Wyckoff Wave for the Johannesburg Stock Exchange (JSE).
// The JSE Wyckoff Wave is in a separate code. This is the code for the volume of the wave. Please see code for the JSE Wyckoff Wave which goes with this indicator.
//
// The Wave presents a normalized price for the 10 selected stocks (An Index for the 10 stocks).
// The theory is to select stocks that are widely held, market leaders, actively traded and participate in important market moves.
// This is only my attempt to select 10 stocks and a different selection can be made.
// I am not certain how SMI determine their weightings but what I have done it to equalize the Rand value of the stock volumne so that moves are of equal magnitude.
// The then provides a view of the overall condition of the market and volume flow in the market.
//
// I have used the September 2018 price to normalize the stock price for the 10 selected stocks based. The stocks and weightings can be changed periodically depending on the performance and leadership.
//
// Please, let me know if there is a better work around this.
The stocks and their weightings are:

Vegas Wave StrategyA quickly put together strat for the Vegas Wave. Buy and sell currently wait until the crossover or twist of the 233 and 144 EMAs and price action below the wave. This can be probably be fixed to sell faster but I'm feeling lazy.
Elliott Wave Oscillator (EWO)Simple Elliott Wave Oscillator: the fast moving average is a 5-period SMA, the slow moving average is a 35-period SMA, the EWO is the difference between the two.
It lines up almost perfectly with Elliott Waves.
alpha Renko intraday wave timeI was asked to share my experimental Renko intraday wave time. So here it is warts and all. The same for the rest - except the Weis cumulative volume.
Renko wave time is in minutes. This script is strictly intraday and has not been played with extensively.
You must use traditional Renko and set the script wave size to the same size as the Renko brick size.
If you click on the sideways wishbone or "V" in the middle upper part of the chart you will get all of the scripts in this particular sandbox. After clicking the sideways wish bone click on "make it mine". You will then have the whole sandbox. The only published script is the Weis cumulative wave.
The "Boys MAs" is supposed to be a script for daily charts and from within some kind of consolidation. In any case I am intrigued by some signals. You have a variety of sandbox options in the format section of the boys MAs.
These codes are pretty rough with lots of abandoned lines of script.
Indicator: Weis Wave Volume [LazyBear]This indicator takes market volume and organizes it into wave charts, clearly highlighting inflection points and regions of supply/demand.
Try tuning this for your instrument (Forex not supported) by adjusting the "Trend Detection Length". This "clubs together" minor waves. If you like an oscillator-kind-of display, enable "ShowDistributionBelowZero" option.
Note: This indicator is a port of a clone of WeisVolumePlugin available for another platform. I don't know how close this is to the original Weis, if any has access to it, do let me know how this compares. Thanks.

Cumulative Volume Delta (HA Option)# **📘 Ultimate Guide to Trading With CVD Heikin Ashi (CVD+)**
## **🔍 What This Indicator Shows**
This tool plots **Cumulative Volume Delta (CVD)** as candlesticks—optionally transformed into **Heikin Ashi CVD candles**.
Instead of price, each candle represents the *battle between buyers and sellers* within your chosen timeframe.
**Volume Delta = Buying Volume – Selling Volume**
CVD takes all deltas and stacks them cumulatively, showing who is controlling the auction *over time*.
With Heikin Ashi smoothing layered on top, trend detection becomes cleaner, letting you see the “true pressure” behind price moves.
---
# **💡 Why CVD Is a Game Changer**
Most traders only see price.
Serious traders watch **pressure**.
CVD exposes what price hides:
* Absorption
* Hidden accumulation
* Seller exhaustion
* Fake breakouts
* True reversals
* Momentum strength / weakness
* Smart money footprint
When combined with Heikin-Ashi smoothing, you get delta trends with way less noise and fewer fake flips.
---
# **📈 How to Actually Use It (The Edge)**
## **1. Spot True Trend vs. Fake Trend**
If **price goes up** but **CVD goes down**, that’s:
* Passive sellers absorbing
* A weak rally
* High probability of reversal
If **price pulls back** but **CVD keeps rising**, that’s:
* Secret accumulation
* A continuation setup
* Great dip-buy opportunity
**Rule of thumb:**
🔹 *Follow the CVD trend, not the price noise.*
---
## **2. Catch Reversals Early**
Watch for:
### **🔻 Bearish Reversal Signals**
* CVD makes a **lower high**
* Heikin Ashi CVD prints **red bodies with rising upper shadows**
* Price makes one final push up on low delta
This is classic distribution → the drop usually follows fast.
### **🔹 Bullish Reversal Signals**
* CVD forms a **higher low**
* HA CVD flips from red to green with full bodies
* Price still looks weak = bottom forming
This is exactly how pros catch bottoms early.
---
## **3. Identify Absorption Levels**
If price hits a level multiple times but CVD keeps climbing (or falling), that level is being defended.
Example:
* Price stalls at support
* CVD keeps rising
= **Buyers absorbing sells → high-probability bounce**
Opposite works for resistance.
---
## **4. Validate Breakouts**
A breakout with *weak or negative CVD* is usually a trap.
A breakout with **strong, rising HA CVD** is real.
If CVD diverges from the breakout direction → fade it.
If CVD confirms → ride it.
---
## **5. Use Heikin Ashi to Stay in Trends**
HA smoothing removes the nasty chop of raw delta data.
Look for:
* Consecutive **full-body teal candles = strong buying wave**
* Consecutive **full-body red candles = strong selling wave**
* Small-bodied candles after a trend = momentum dying
This keeps you in winners longer and cuts losers faster.
---
# **🎯 Practical Trading Playbook**
### **A) Long Setup**
1. Price pullback into support
2. CVD stays bullish or makes a higher low
3. HA CVD flips green or prints a strong body
4. Enter long
5. Stop under CVD structural low
### **B) Short Setup**
1. Price pushes into resistance
2. CVD forms bearish divergence
3. HA CVD prints red bodies
4. Enter short
5. Stop above CVD swing high
### **C) Chop Filter**
No clear HA CVD trend = avoid trading → stop donating money to the market.
---
# **🧠 Tips for Mastery**
* Use lower timeframe delta (1m–5m) for scalping entries
* Use a higher anchor timeframe (1D) to define direction
* When price trends but CVD is flat → expect a fakeout
* When CVD trends but price is flat → expect a breakout
* Trade WITH delta, fade AGAINST delta
---
# **⚠️ Important Notes**
* Crypto = full tick-by-tick volume → CVD is extremely accurate
* Stocks = depends on your broker/data vendor
* Futures = best signal-to-noise ratio
* If your symbol has no volume → indicator will warn you
---
# **📥 Recommended Settings**
* **Anchor timeframe**: 1D or 4H
* **Lower timeframe**: 1m, 3m, or 5m
* **Heikin Ashi**: ON for trend filtering, OFF for raw delta
---
# **🔥 Final Word**
Price can lie.
Delta usually doesn’t.
CVD + Heikin Ashi gives you the closest thing to reading the market’s heartbeat in real time.
Use it to confirm breakouts, detect reversals early, identify real trend strength, and avoid getting caught in manipulation.
If you learn to read CVD well…
you stop trading price, and start trading the **intent** behind the price.
Mirror Blocks: StrategyMirror Blocks is an educational structural-wave model built around a unique concept:
the interaction of mirrored weighted moving averages (“blocks”) that reflect shifts in market structure as price transitions between layered symmetry zones.
Rather than attempting to “predict” markets, the Mirror Blocks framework visualizes how price behaves when it expands away from, contracts toward, or flips across stacked WMA structures. These mirrored layers form a wave-like block system that highlights transitional zones in a clean, mechanical way.
This strategy version allows you to study how these structural transitions behave in different environments and on different timeframes.
The goal is understanding wave structure, not generating signals.
How It Works
Mirror Blocks builds three mirrored layers:
Top Block (Structural High Symmetry)
Base Block (Neutral Wave)
Bottom Block (Structural Low Symmetry)
The relative position of these blocks — and how price interacts with them — helps visualize:
Compression and expansion
Reversal zones
Wave stability
Momentum transitions
Structure flips
A structure is considered bullish-stack aligned when:
Top > Base > Bottom
and bearish-stack aligned when:
Bottom > Base > Top
These formations create the core of the Mirror Blocks wave engine.
What the Strategy Version Adds
This version includes:
Long Only, Short Only, or Long & Short modes
Adjustable symmetry distance (Mirror Distance)
Configurable WMA smoothing length
Optional trend filter using fast/slow MA comparison
ENTER / EXIT / LONG / SHORT labels for structural transitions
Fixed stop-loss controls for research
A clean, transparent structure with no hidden components
It is optimized for educational chart study, not automated signals.
Intended Purpose
Mirror Blocks is meant to help traders:
Study structural transitions
Understand symmetry-based wave models
Explore how price interacts with mirrored layers
Examine reversals and expansions from a mechanical perspective
Conduct long and short backtesting for research
Develop a deeper sense of market rhythm
This is not a prediction model.
It is a visual and structural framework for understanding movement.
Backtesting Disclaimer
Backtest results can vary depending on:
Slippage settings
Commission settings
Timeframe
Asset volatility
Structural sensitivity parameters
Past performance does not guarantee future results.
Use this as a research tool only.
Warnings & Compliance
This script is educational.
It is not financial advice.
It does not provide signals.
It does not promise profitability.
The purpose is to help visualize structure, not predict price.
The strategy features are simply here to help users study how structural transitions behave under various conditions.

Sigma Trinity ModelAbstract
Sigma Trinity Model is an educational framework that studies how three layers of market behavior interact within the same trend: (1) structural momentum (Rasta), (2) internal strength (RSI), and (3) continuation/compounding structure (Pyramid). The model deliberately combines bar-close momentum logic with intrabar, wick-aware strength checks to help users see how reversals form, confirm, and extend. It is not a signal service or automation tool; it is a transparent learning instrument for chart study and backtesting.
Why this is not “just a mashup”
Many scripts merge indicators without explaining the purpose. Sigma Trinity is a coordinated, three-engine study designed for a specific learning goal:
Rasta (structure): defines when momentum actually flips using a dual-line EMA vs smoothed EMA. It gives the entry/exit framework on bar close for clean historical study.
RSI (energy): measures internal strength with wick-aware triggers. It uses RSI of LOW (for bottom touches/reclaims) and RSI of HIGH (for top touches/exhaustion) so users can see intrabar strength/weakness that the close can hide.
Pyramid (progression): demonstrates how continuation behaves once momentum and strength align. It shows the logic of adds (compounding) as a didactic layer, also on bar close to keep historical alignment consistent.
These three roles are complementary, not redundant: structure → strength → progression.
Architecture Overview
Execution model
Rasta & Pyramid: bar close only by default (historically stable, easy to audit).
RSI: per tick (realtime) with bar-close backup by default, using RSI of LOW for entries and RSI of HIGH for exits. This makes the module sensitive to intra-bar wicks while still giving a close-based safety net for backtests.
Stops (optional in strategy builds): wick-accurate: trail arms/ratchets on HIGH; stop hit checks with LOW (or Close if selected) with a small undershoot buffer to avoid micro-noise hits.
Visual model
Dual lines (EMA vs smoothed EMA) for Rasta + color fog to see direction and compression/expansion.
Rungs (small vertical lines) drawn between the two Rasta lines to visualize wave spacing and rhythm.
Clean labels for Entry/Exit/Pyramid Add/RSI events. Everything is state-locked to avoid spamming.
Module 1 — Rasta (Structural Momentum Layer)
Goal: Identify structural momentum reversals and maintain a consistent, replayable backbone for study.
Method:
Compute an EMA of a chosen price source (default Close), and a smoothed version (SMA/EMA/RMA/WMA/None selectable).
Flip points occur when the EMA line crosses the smoothed line.
Optional EMA 8/21 trend filter can gate entries (long-bias when EMA8 > EMA21). A small “adaptive on flip” option lets an entry fire when the filter itself flips to ON and the EMA is already above the smoothed line—useful for trend resumption.
Why bar close only?
Bar-close Rasta gives a stable, auditable timeline for the structure of the trend. It teaches users to separate “structure” (close-resolved) from “energy” (intrabar, via RSI).
Visuals:
Fog between the lines (green/red) to show regime.
Rungs between lines to show spread (compression vs expansion).
Optional plotting of EMA8/EMA21 so users can see the gating effect.
Module 2 — RSI (Internal Strength / Energy Layer)
Goal: Reveal the intrabar strength/weakness that often precedes or confirms structural flips.
Method:
Standard RSI with adjustable length and signal smoothing for the panel view.
Logic uses wick-aware sources:
Entry trigger: RSI of LOW (same RSI length) touching or below a lower band (default 15). Think of it as intraband reactivation from the bottom, using the candle’s deepest excursion.
Exit trigger: RSI of HIGH touching or above an upper band (default 85). Think of it as exhaustion at the top, using the candle’s highest excursion.
Realtime + Close Backup: fires intrabar on tick, but if the realtime event was missed, the close backup will note it at bar end.
Cooldown control: optional bars-between-signals to avoid rapid re-triggers on choppy sequences.
Why wick-aware RSI?
A close-only RSI can miss the true micro-extremes that cause reversals. Using LOW/HIGH for triggers captures the behavior that traders actually react to during the bar, while the bar-close backup preserves historical reproducibility.
Module 3 — Pyramid (Continuation / Compounding Layer)
Goal: Teach how continuation behaves once a trend is underway, and how adds can be structured.
Method:
Same dual-line logic as Rasta (EMA vs smoothed EMA), but only fires when already in a position (or after prior entry conditions).
Supports the same EMA 8/21 filter and optional adaptive-on-flip behavior.
Bar close only to maintain historical cohesion.
What it teaches:
Adds tend to cluster when momentum persists.
Students can experiment with add spacing and compare “one-shot entries” vs “laddered adds” during strong regimes.
How the Pieces Work Together
Rasta establishes the structural frame (when the wave flip is real enough to record at close).
RSI validates or challenges that structure by tracking intrabar energy at the extremes (low/high touches).
Pyramid shows what sustained continuation looks like once (1) and (2) align.
This produces a layered view: Structure → Energy → Progression. Users can see when all three line up (strongest phases) and when they diverge (riskier phases or transitions).
How to Use It (Step-by-Step)
Quick Start
Apply script to any symbol/timeframe.
In Strategy/Indicator Properties:
Enable On every tick (recommended).
If available, enable Using bar magnifier and choose a lower resolution (e.g., 1m) to simulate intrabar fills more realistically.
Keep On bar close unchecked if you want to observe realtime logic in live charts (strategies still place orders on close by platform design).
Default behavior: Rasta & Pyramid = bar close; RSI = per tick with close backup.
Reading the Chart
Watch for Rasta Entry/Exit labels: they define clean structural turns on close.
Watch RSI Entry (LOW touch at/below lower band) and RSI Exit (HIGH touch at/above upper band) to gauge internal energy extremes.
Pyramid Add labels reveal continuation phases once a move is already in progress.
Tuning
Rasta smoothing: choose SMA/EMA/RMA/WMA or None. Higher smoothing → later but cleaner flips; lower smoothing → earlier but choppier.
RSI bands: a common educational setting is 15/85 for strong extremes; 20/80 is a bit looser.
Cooldown: increase if you see too many RSI re-fires in chop.
EMA 8/21 filter: toggle ON to study “trend-gated” entries, OFF to study raw momentum flips.
Backtesting Notes (for Strategy Builds)
Stops (optional): trail is armed when price advances by a trigger (default D–F₀), ratchets only upward from HIGH, and hits from LOW (or Close if chosen) with a tiny undershoot buffer to avoid micro-wicks.
Order sequencing per bar (mirrors the script’s code comments):
Trail ratchet via HIGH
Intrabar stop hit via LOW/CLOSE → immediate close
If still in position at bar close: process exits (Rasta/RSI)
If still in position at bar close: process Pyramid Add
If flat at bar close: process entries (Rasta/RSI)
Platform reality: strategies place orders at bar close in historical testing; the intrabar logic improves realism for stops and event marking but final order timestamps are still close-resolved.
Inputs Reference (common)
Modules: enable/disable RSI and Pyramid learning layers.
Rasta: EMA length, smoothing type/length, EMA8/21 filter & adaptive flip, fog opacity, rungs on/off & limit.
RSI: RSI length, signal MA length (panel), Entry band (LOW), Exit band (HIGH), cooldown bars, labels.
Pyramid: EMA length, smoothing, EMA8/21 filter & adaptive adds.
Execution: toggle Bar Close Only for Rasta/Pyramid; toggle Realtime + Close Backup for RSI.
Stops (strategy): Fixed Stop % (first), Fixed Stop % (add), Trail Distance %, Trigger rule (auto D–F₀ or custom), undershoot buffer %, and hit source (LOW/CLOSE).
What to Study With It
Convergence: how often RSI-LOW entry touches precede the next Rasta flip.
Divergence: cases where RSI screams exhaustion (HIGH >= upper band) but Rasta hasn’t flipped yet—often transition zones.
Continuation: how Pyramid adds cluster in strong moves; how spacing changes with smoothing/filter choices.
Regime changes: use EMA8/21 filter toggles to see what happens at macro turns vs chop.
Limitations & Scope
This is a learning tool, not a trade copier. It does not provide financial advice or automated execution.
Intrabar results depend on data granularity; bar magnifier (when available) can help simulate lower-resolution ticks, but true tick-by-tick fills are a platform-level feature and not guaranteed across all symbols.
