Multi Asset + Correlation OverlayFrom time to time, you may want to overlay multiple assets on the same chart instead of using multi-chart views. This can be a much cleaner way of viewing and comparing multiple assets. There is some functionality built into TradingView that lets you do this to a certain extent, but I wanted additional options, correlation labeling and ways to adjust the overlay location. So, today I am releasing to the community my Multi-Asset + Correlation Overlay script / indicator.
What is does: This script allows you to overlay the price of any ticker onto your chart. It also labels the line with the ticker name, and calculates / labels the correlation coefficient of your newly overlayed asset.
How to use it: Add the indicator to your chart. Then, go into the indicator settings to set the ticker of the asset you want to pull in along with how you want to "offset" it. Your 2 tickers may not be priced near each-other, so the offset setting allows you to pull the ticker you added up/down to better visually align with your chart's price range/layout. For instance, if the asset you added is priced $400 higher than the underlying chart price, you may want to set the offset to -400.
If you would like to add multiple tickers and multiple overlays, you can do that by just adding the indicator to your chart more than once. The color is adjustable, and the ticker of the asset will print to the right of the line representing the asset price. The script also calculates the correlation coefficient between the ticker overlay and the underlying chart asset. The correlation coefficient prints to the right of the ticker.

Crypto Volume/Strength ComparatorHello Traders,
Here is an attempt to perform comparative analysis between top cryptos based on strength (oscillator) and volume. Methodology used here is similar to Magic Number formula described in the post : Enhanced Magic Formula for fundamental analysis . But, instead of using fundamentals, we are making use of few technicals to derive similar outcome. Usage of the available stats will not be same as Magic number since we are using technicals.
⬜ Process
▶ Get crypto exchange based on prefix of instrument being used.
▶ For the given exchange, get data for all the tickers available in input fields.
▶ Calculate Oscillator, Momentum based on price for each tickers.
▶ Calculate Oscillator, Momentum based on volume for each tickers.
▶ Calculate Volatility for each tickers.
▶ Rank Price-Oscillator, Price-Momentum, Volume-Oscillator, Volume-Momentum, Volatility for each tickers.
▶ Calculate combined rank by adding up individual ranks.
▶ Calculate movement of rankings from bar to bar
▶ Sort tickers based on rank and populate them on table. Display direction of rankings.
⬜ Components
Display components are as follows:
⬜ Settings
Settings are pretty simple and straightforward
⬜ Calculations
▶ Oscillators : High values of oscillators are considered as ideal as the process is intended towards finding trend.
▶ Momentum : Momentum is calculated on the basis of Squeeze Momentum Indicator by @LazyBear.
▶ Volatility : Volatility is calculated on the basis of Williams Vix Fix by @ChrisMoody. Here too since we are in trend following mode, lower vix fix is considered ideal.
⬜ Few Notes
Tickers will show data only if selected exchange has them. Some tickers are not available in all exchanges. In that case, it will show NAN. This is kind of unavoidable as we need to have fixed size arrays for any calculations.
Indicator works only on crypto tickers which has valid exchange.
Tickers move through the rankings in real time. Background of all stats are based on gradient from green to red.
Tickers on top may not always have better long opportunity or tickers at bottom may not always be optimal for shorting. We need to consider how long the instrument may stay in the position or how fast it is moving in opposite direction. Hence, directions of the ranking movement are also shown on the table.
Yelober - Market Internal direction+ Key levelsYelober – Market Internals + Key Levels is a focused intraday trading tool that helps you spot high-probability price direction by anchoring decisions to structure that matters: yesterday’s RTH High/Low, today’s pre-market High/Low, and a fast Value Area/POC from the prior session. Paired with a compact market internals dashboard (NYSE/NASDAQ UVOL vs. DVOL ratios, VOLD slopes, TICK/TICKQ momentum, and optional VIX trend), it gives you a real-time read on breadth so you can choose which direction to trade, when to enter (breaks, retests, or fades at PMH/PML/VAH/VAL/POC), and how to plan exits as internals confirm or deteriorate. On top of these intraday decision benefits, it also allows traders—in a very subtle but powerful way—to keep an eye on the VIX and immediately recognize significant spikes or sharp decreases that should be factored in before entering a trade, or used as a quick signal to modify an existing position. In short: clear levels for the chart, live internals for the context, and a smarter, rules-based path to execution.
# Yelober – Market Internals + Key Levels
*A TradingView indicator for session key levels + real‑time market internals (NYSE/NASDAQ TICK, UVOL/DVOL/VOLD, and VIX).*
**Script name in Pine:** `Yelober - Market Internal direction+ Key levels` (Pine v6)
---
## 1) What this indicator does
**Purpose:** Help intraday traders quickly find high‑probability reaction zones and read market internals momentum without switching charts. It overlays yesterday/today’s **automatic price levels** on your active chart and shows a **market breadth table** that summarizes NYSE/NASDAQ buying pressure and TICK direction, with an optional VIX trend read.
### Key features at a glance
* **Automatic Price Levels (overlay on chart)**
* Yesterday’s High/Low of Day (**yHoD**, **yLoD**)
* Extended Hours High/Low (**yEHH**, **yEHL**) across yesterday AH + today pre‑market
* Today’s Pre‑Market High/Low (**PMH**, **PML**)
* Yesterday’s **Value Area High/Low** (**VAH/VAL**) and **Point of Control (POC)** computed from a volume profile of yesterday’s **regular session**
* Smart de‑duplication:
* Shows **only the higher** of (yEHH vs PMH) and **only the lower** of (yEHL vs PML) to avoid redundant bands
* **Market Breadth Table (on‑chart table)**
* **NYSE ratio** = UVOL/DVOL (signed) with **VOLD slope** from session open
* **NASDAQ ratio** = UVOLQ/DVOLQ (signed) with **VOLDQ slope** from session open
* **TICK** and **TICKQ**: live cumulative ratio and short‑term slope
* **VIX** (optional): current value + slope over a configurable lookback/timeframe
* Color‑coded trends with sensible thresholds and optional normalization
---
## 2) How to use it (trader workflow)
1. **Mark your reaction zones**
* Watch **yHoD/yLoD**, **PMH/PML**, and **VAH/VAL/POC** for first touches, break/retest, and failure tests.
* Expect increased responsiveness when multiple levels cluster (e.g., PMH ≈ VAH ≈ daily pivot).
2. **Read the breadth panel for context**
* **NYSE/NASDAQ ratio** (>1 = more up‑volume than down‑volume; <−1 = down‑dominant). Strong green across both favors long setups; red favors short setups.
* **VOLD slopes** (NYSE & NASDAQ): positive and accelerating → broadening participation; negative → persistent pressure.
* **TICK/TICKQ**: cumulative ratio and **slope arrows** (↗ / ↘ / →). Use the slope to gauge **near‑term thrust or fade**.
* **VIX slope**: rising VIX (red) often coincides with risk‑off; falling VIX (green) with risk‑on.
3. **Confluence = higher confidence**
* Example: Price reclaims **PMH** while **NYSE/NASDAQ ratios** print green and **TICK slopes** point ↗ — consider break‑and‑go; if VIX slope is ↘, that adds risk‑on confidence.
* Example: Price rejects **VAH** while **VOLD slopes** roll negative and VIX ↗ — consider fade/reversal.
4. **Risk management**
* Place stops just beyond key levels tested; if breadth flips, tighten or exit.
> **Timeframes:** Works best on 1–15m charts for intraday. Value Area is computed from **yesterday’s RTH**; choose a smaller calculation timeframe (e.g., 5–15m) for stable profiles.
---
## 3) Inputs & settings (what each option controls)
### Global Style
* **Enable all automatic price levels**: master toggle for yHoD/yLoD, yEHH/yEHL, PMH/PML, VAH/VAL/POC.
* **Line style/width**: applies to all drawn levels.
* **Label size/style** and **label color linking**: use the same color as the line or override with a global label color.
* **Maximum bars lookback**: how far the script scans to build yesterday metrics (performance‑sensitive).
### Value Area / Volume Profile
* **Enable Value Area calculations** *(on by default)*: computes yesterday’s **POC**, **VAH**, **VAL** from a simplified intraday volume profile built from yesterday’s **regular session bars**.
* **Max Volume Profile Points** *(default 50)*: lower values = faster; higher = more precise.
* **Value Area Calculation Timeframe** *(default 15)*: the security timeframe used when collecting yesterday’s highs/lows/volumes.
### Individual Level Toggles & Colors
* **yHoD / yLoD** (yesterday high/low)
* **yEHH / yEHL** (yesterday AH + today pre‑market extremes)
* **PMH / PML** (today pre‑market extremes)
* **VAH / VAL / POC** (yesterday RTH value area + point of control)
### Market Breadth Panel
* **Show NYSE / NASDAQ / VIX**: choose which series to display in the table.
* **Table Position / Size / Background Color**: UI placement and legibility.
* **Slope Averaging Periods** *(default 5)*: number of recent TICK/TICKQ ratio points used in slope calculation.
* **Candles for Rate** *(default 10)* & **Normalize Rate**: VIX slope calculation as % change between `now` and `n` candles ago; normalize divides by `n`.
* **VIX Timeframe**: optionally compute VIX on a higher TF (e.g., 15, 30, 60) for a smoother regime read.
* **Volume Normalization** (NYSE & NASDAQ): display VOLD slopes scaled to `tens/thousands/millions/10th millions` for readable magnitudes; color thresholds adapt to your choice.
---
## 4) Data sources & definitions
* **UVOL/VOLD (NYSE)** and **UVOLQ/DVOLQ/VOLDQ (NASDAQ)** via `request.security()`
* **Ratio** = `UVOL/DVOL` (signed; negative when down‑volume dominates)
* **VOLD slope** ≈ `(VOLD_now − VOLD_open) / bars_since_open`, then normalized per your setting
* **TICK/TICKQ**: cumulative sum of prints this session with **positives vs negatives ratio**, plus a simple linear regression **slope** of the last `N` ratio values
* **VIX**: value and slope across a user‑selected timeframe and lookback
* **Sessions (EST/EDT)**
* **Regular:** 09:30–16:00
* **Pre‑Market:** 04:00–09:30
* **After Hours:** 16:00–20:00
* **Extended‑hours extremes** combine **yesterday AH** + **today PM**
> **Note:** All session checks are done with TradingView’s `time(…,"America/New_York")` context. If your broker’s RTH differs (e.g., futures), adjust expectations accordingly.
---
## 5) How the algorithms work (plain English)
### A) Key Levels
* **Yesterday’s RTH High/Low**: scans yesterday’s bars within 09:30–16:00 and records the extremes + bar indices.
* **Extended Hours**: scans yesterday AH and today PM to get **yEHH/yEHL**. Script shows **either yEHH or PMH** (whichever is **higher**) and **either yEHL or PML** (whichever is **lower**) to avoid duplicate bands stacked together.
* **Value Area & POC (RTH only)**
* Build a coarse volume profile with `Max Volume Profile Points` buckets across the price range formed by yesterday’s RTH bars.
* Distribute each bar’s volume uniformly across the buckets it spans (fast approximation to keep Pine within execution limits).
* **POC** = bucket with max volume. **VA** expands from POC outward until **70%** of cumulative volume is enclosed → yields **VAH/VAL**.
### B) Market Breadth Table
* **NYSE/NASDAQ Ratio**: signed UVOL/DVOL with basic coloring.
* **VOLD Slopes**: from session open to current, normalized to human‑readable units; colors flip green/red based on thresholds that map to your normalization setting (e.g., ±2M for NYSE, ±3.5×10M for NASDAQ).
* **TICK/TICKQ Slope**: linear regression over the last `N` ratio points → **↗ / → / ↘** with the rounded slope value.
* **VIX Slope**: % change between now and `n` candles ago (optionally divided by `n`). Red when rising beyond threshold; green when falling.
---
## 6) Recommended presets
* **Stocks (liquid, intraday)**
* Value Area **ON**, `Max Volume Points` = **40–60**, **Timeframe** = **5–15**
* Breadth: show **NYSE & NASDAQ & VIX**, `Slope periods` = **5–8**, `Candles for rate` = **10–20**, **Normalize VIX** = **ON**
* **Index futures / very high‑volume symbols**
* If you see Pine timeouts, set `Max Volume Points` = **20–40** or temporarily **disable Value Area**.
* Keep breadth panel **ON** (it’s light). Consider **VIX timeframe = 15/30** for regime clarity.
---
## 7) Tips, edge cases & performance
* **Performance:** The volume profile is capped (`maxBarsToProcess ≤ 500` and bucketed) to keep it responsive. If you experience slowdowns, reduce `Max Volume Points`, `Maximum bars lookback`, or disable Value Area.
* **Redundant lines:** The script **intentionally suppresses** PMH/PML when yEHH/yEHL are more extreme, and vice‑versa.
* **Label visibility:** Use `Label style = none` if you only want clean lines and read values from the right‑end labels.
* **Futures/RTH differences:** Value Area is from **yesterday’s RTH** only; for 24h instruments the RTH period may not reflect overnight structure.
* **Session transitions:** PMH/PML tracking stops as soon as RTH starts; values persist as static levels for the session.
---
## 8) Known limitations
* Uses public TradingView symbols: `UVOL`, `VOLD`, `UVOLQ`, `DVOLQ`, `VOLDQ`, `TICK`, `TICKQ`, `VIX`. If your data plan or region limits any symbol, the corresponding table rows may show `na`.
* The VA/POC approximation assumes uniform distribution of each bar’s volume across its high–low. That’s fast but not a tick‑level profile.
* Works best on US equities with standard NY session; alternative sessions may need code changes.
---
## 9) Troubleshooting
* **“Script is too slow / timed out”** → Lower `Max Volume Points`, lower `Maximum bars lookback`, or toggle **OFF** `Enable Value Area calculations` for that instrument.
* **Missing breadth values** → Ensure the symbols above load on your account; try reloading chart or switching timeframes once.
* **Overlapping labels** → Set `Label style = none` or reduce label size.
---
## 10) Version / license / contribution
* **Version:** Initial public release (Pine v6).
* **Author:** © yelober
* **License:** Free for community use and enhancement. Please keep author credit.
* **Contributing:** Open PRs/ideas: presets, alert conditions, multi‑day VA composites, optional mid‑value (`(VAH+VAL)/2`), session filter for futures, and alertable state machine for breadth regime transitions.
---
## 11) Quick start (TL;DR)
1. Add the indicator and **keep default settings**.
2. Trade **reactions** at yHoD/yLoD/PMH/PML/VAH/VAL/POC.
3. Use the **breadth table**: look for **green ratios + ↗ slopes** (risk‑on) or **red ratios + ↘ slopes** (risk‑off). Check **VIX** slope for confirmation.
4. Manage risk around levels; when breadth flips against you, tighten or exit.

### Changelog (public)
* **v1.0:** First community release with automatic RTH levels, VA/POC approximation, breadth dashboard (NYSE/NASDAQ/TICK/TICKQ/VIX) with normalization and adaptive color thresholds.
Open Interest Footprint IQ [TradingIQ]Hello Traders!
Th e Open Interest Footprint IQ indicator is an advanced visualization tool designed for cryptocurrency markets. It provides a granular, real-time breakdown of open interest changes across different price levels, allowing traders to see how aggressive market participation is distributed within each bar.
Unlike standard footprint charts that rely solely on volume, this indicator offers unique insights by focusing on the interaction between price action and changes in open interest (OI) — a leading metric often used to infer trader intent and positioning.
How it works
The Open Interest Footprint IQ processes lower timeframe price and open interest data to build a footprint-style chart that shows how traders are positioning themselves within each candle.
Here’s a breakdown of the process:
1. Granular OI & Price Sampling
The script retrieves lower-timeframe data (1-minute, 1-second, or 1-tick, based on your setting).
For each candle, it captures:
High and low prices
Price change direction
Change in open interest (OI)
2. Classifying Trader Behavior
For each lower-timeframe segment, the indicator determines the type of positioning occurring based on price movement and OI change:
If price is moving up and open interest is increasing, it suggests that long positions are being opened. This is considered a "Longs Opening" event, labeled as UU (Up/Up).
If price is moving up but open interest is decreasing, it indicates that short positions are being closed. This is referred to as UD (Up/Down), or "Shorts Closing."
If price is moving down and open interest is increasing, it signals that short positions are being opened. This is known as DU (Down/Up), or "Shorts Opening."
If price is moving down while open interest is also decreasing, it means that long positions are being closed. This is labeled as DD (Down/Down), or "Longs Closing."
These are stored in separate arrays and displayed at specific price levels.
It is particularly useful for identifying:
Where longs or shorts are opening/closing positions
Stacked imbalances (indicative of potential absorption or exhaustion)
Value area zones and POC (Point of Control) based on OI, not volume
This footprint runs on your choice of sub-bar granularity and is ideal for high-frequency trading, scalping, and entries based on order flow dynamics.
Key Features
Footprint Visualization
At each price level within a candle:
Long/short opening and closing behavior is broken down.
Delta (net open interest change) is displayed both numerically and color-coded.
Optional gradient coloring shows intensity and type of flow (longs/shorts opened/closed).
Cumulative or per-bar reset modes allow you to track OI evolution over time.
The image above explains the information that each Footprint box shows across a candlestick!
Each footprint box shows:
OI Delta
OI Delta %
Longs Opened (LO)
Longs Closed (LC)
Shorts Opened (SO)
Shorts Closed (SC)
The image above explains the color-coding feature of the indicator.
Boxes are color coded to show which position action
dominated at the price area.
For this example:
Green boxes = Long positions being opened dominated
Purple boxes = Long positions being closed dominated
Red boxes = Short positions being opened dominated
Yellow boxes = Short positions being closed dominated
All colors are customizable.
Additionally, for traders who are only interested in whether OI increased/decreased, a "two-color" option is available in the settings.
For the two-color option, footprint boxes can be one of two colors. Showing whether OI increased or decreased at the level.
Cumulative Levels
Open Interest Footprint IQ contains a "Cumulative Levels" feature that tracks/stores open interest change at tick levels over time, rather than resetting per bar.
With the "Cumulative Levels" feature enabled, traders can see open interest changes persist across all candlesticks. This feature is useful for determining whether longs opening, longs closing, shorts opening, or shorts closing are dominating at particular price areas over time rather than on a single bar.
A useful feature to see if shorts/longs are favoring certain price throughout the day, week, month, etc.
Input Settings Explained
Granularity (Dropdown: Granularity)
Options: 1-Minute, 1-Second, 1-Tick
Determines how finely the script samples the lower timeframe data to construct the footprint.
For precision:
1-Tick = Highest accuracy, but more resource-intensive.
1-Second/1-Minute = Suitable for broader or more zoomed-out analysis.
Tick Level Distance (Tick Level Distance (0 = Auto))
Defines the vertical spacing between levels in the footprint chart.
If 0, the script uses an automatic calculation based on ATR to adapt to volatility.
Set a manual value (e.g., 5) to control the height granularity of each level in ticks.
Cumulative Levels (Toggle)
If enabled, the footprint builds cumulatively over time, rather than resetting per candle.
Use case: Visualize ongoing buildup of OI activity across a session or day.
Cumulative Levels Reset TF (Timeframe)
Sets the reset interval for the cumulative view (e.g., reset daily, hourly, etc.)
Works only when Cumulative Levels is enabled.
Delta Box Display Settings
Show Delta Percentage
Toggles the display of the percentage change in OI across the footprint level.
Helpful to gauge how aggressive positioning is relative to total OI at that level.
Show Longs/Shorts (Opened/Closed)
Show Longs Opened: Displays OI increase in up candles (price ↑, OI ↑).
Show Longs Closed: Displays OI decrease in down candles (price ↓, OI ↓).
Show Shorts Opened: OI increase in down candles (price ↓, OI ↑).
Show Shorts Closed: OI decrease in up candles (price ↑, OI ↓).
These behaviors are color-coded to give traders instant context:
Blue-green for longs opening.
Purple for longs closing.
Red for shorts opening.
Yellow for shorts closing.
Value Area & POC
Value Area % (Value Area %)
Controls how much cumulative open interest is used to define the value area.
Example: 70% means the smallest range of prices that contains 70% of total OI in that bar will be marked.
Helps identify zones of interest, support/resistance, and institutional levels.
The image above explains how to identify the VAH/VAL/POC shown by Open Interest Footprint IQ.
VAH = Upper 🞂
POC = ●
VAL = Lower 🞂
Imbalances
Imbalance Percentage
Defines the minimum delta % required at a level to be marked as an imbalance.
If the net open interest change at a level exceeds this threshold, a visual marker appears.
Stacked Imbalance Count
If the number of consecutive imbalance levels meets this count, a “Stacked Imbalance” alert will trigger.
This can signal aggressive buying or selling pressure, potential breakout zones, or institutional absorption.
Color Settings
Longs Opened / Closed, Shorts Opened / Closed
Customize the color palette for each order flow behavior.
These colors appear in the background gradient of the footprint boxes.
Up/Down Only Mode
Toggle to override all behavior-based colors with a single Up Color and Down Color.
Useful if you prefer a simple bull/bear view.
Up Color / Down Color
If "Up/Down Only" is enabled, these two colors are used to represent all net positive or negative deltas.
Special Notes
Crypto only: This script works only with crypto tickers on TradingView.
For other assets (stocks, futures), a warning message will appear instead.
OI data must be available from the exchange (many perpetual pairs support this).
If the footprint is too small or invisible, increase your tick level spacing in the settings.
Alerts
When a stacked imbalance is detected, an alert is fired ("Stacked Imbalance").
This feature is useful for automated systems, bots, or simply staying informed of potential trade setups.
And that's all for now!
If you have any questions or features you'd like to see feel free to share them in the comments below!
Thank you traders!
ICT Opening Range Projections (tristanlee85)ICT Opening Range Projections
This indicator visualizes key price levels based on ICT's (Inner Circle Trader) "Opening Range" concept. This 30-minute time interval establishes price levels that the algorithm will refer to throughout the session. The indicator displays these levels, including standard deviation projections, internal subdivisions (quadrants), and the opening price.
🟪 What It Does
The Opening Range is a crucial 30-minute window where market algorithms establish significant price levels. ICT theory suggests this range forms the basis for daily price movement.
This script helps you:
Mark the high, low, and opening price of each session.
Divide the range into quadrants (premium, discount, and midpoint/Consequent Encroachment).
Project potential price targets beyond the range using configurable standard deviation multiples .
🟪 How to Use It
This tool aids in time-based technical analysis rooted in ICT's Opening Range model, helping you observe price interaction with algorithmic levels.
Example uses include:
Identifying early structural boundaries.
Observing price behavior within premium/discount zones.
Visualizing initial displacement from the range to anticipate future moves.
Comparing price reactions at projected standard deviation levels.
Aligning price action with significant times like London or NY Open.
Note: This indicator provides a visual framework; it does not offer trade signals or interpretations.
🟪 Key Information
Time Zone: New York time (ET) is required on your chart.
Sessions: Supports multiple sessions, including NY midnight, NY AM, NY PM, and three custom timeframes.
Time Interval: Supports multi-timeframe up to 15 minutes. Best used on a 1-minute chart for accuracy.
🟪 Session Options
The Opening Range interval is configurable for up to 6 sessions:
Pre-defined ICT Sessions:
NY Midnight: 12:00 AM – 12:30 AM ET
NY AM: 9:30 AM – 10:00 AM ET
NY PM: 1:30 PM – 2:00 PM ET
Custom Sessions:
Three user-defined start/end time pairs.
This example shows a custom session from 03:30 - 04:00:
🟪 Understanding the Levels
The Opening Price is the open of the first 1-minute candle within the chosen session.
At session close, the Opening Range is calculated using its High and Low . An optional swing-based mode uses swing highs/lows for range boundaries.
The range is divided into quadrants by its midpoint ( Consequent Encroachment or CE):
Upper Quadrant: CE to high (premium).
Lower Quadrant: Low to CE (discount).
These subdivisions help visualize internal range dynamics, where price often reacts during algorithmic delivery.
🟪 Working with Ranges
By default, the range is determined by the highest high and lowest low of the 30-minute session:
A range can also be determined by the highest/lowest swing points:
Quadrants outline the premium and discount of a range that price will reference:
Small ranges still follow the same algorithmic logic, but may be deemed insignificant for one's trading. These can be filtered in the settings by specifying a minimum ticks limit. In this example, the range is 42 ticks (10.5 points) but the indicator is configured for 80 ticks (20 points). We can select which levels will plot if the range is below the limit. Here, only the 00:00 opening price is plotted:
You may opt to include the range high/low, quadrants, and projections as well. This will plot a red (configurable) range bracket to indicate it is below the limit while plotting the levels:
🟪 Price Projections
Projections extend beyond the Opening Range using standard deviations, framing the market beyond the initial session and identifying potential targets. You define the standard deviation multiples (e.g., 1.0, 1.5, 2.0).
Both positive and negative extensions are displayed, symmetrically projected from the range's high and low.
The Dynamic Levels option plots only the next projection level once price crosses the previous extreme. For example, only the 0.5 STDEV level plots until price reaches it, then the 1.0 level appears, and so on. This continues up to your defined maximum projections, or indefinitely if standard deviations are set to 0.
This example shows dynamic levels for a total of 6 sessions, only 1 of which meet a configured minimum limit of 50 ticks:
Small ranges followed by significant displacement are impacted the most with the number of levels plotted. You may hide projections when configuring the minimum ticks.
A fixed standard deviation will plot levels in both directions, regardless of the price range. Here, we plot up to 3.0 which hiding projections for small ranges:

Correlation Heatmap█ OVERVIEW
This indicator creates a correlation matrix for a user-specified list of symbols based on their time-aligned weekly or monthly price returns. It calculates the Pearson correlation coefficient for each possible symbol pair, and it displays the results in a symmetric table with heatmap-colored cells. This format provides an intuitive view of the linear relationships between various symbols' price movements over a specific time range.
█ CONCEPTS
Correlation
Correlation typically refers to an observable statistical relationship between two datasets. In a financial time series context, it usually represents the extent to which sampled values from a pair of datasets, such as two series of price returns, vary jointly over time. More specifically, in this context, correlation describes the strength and direction of the relationship between the samples from both series.
If two separate time series tend to rise and fall together proportionally, they might be highly correlated. Likewise, if the series often vary in opposite directions, they might have a strong anticorrelation . If the two series do not exhibit a clear relationship, they might be uncorrelated .
Traders frequently analyze asset correlations to help optimize portfolios, assess market behaviors, identify potential risks, and support trading decisions. For instance, correlation often plays a key role in diversification . When two instruments exhibit a strong correlation in their returns, it might indicate that buying or selling both carries elevated unsystematic risk . Therefore, traders often aim to create balanced portfolios of relatively uncorrelated or anticorrelated assets to help promote investment diversity and potentially offset some of the risks.
When using correlation analysis to support investment decisions, it is crucial to understand the following caveats:
• Correlation does not imply causation . Two assets might vary jointly over an analyzed range, resulting in high correlation or anticorrelation in their returns, but that does not indicate that either instrument directly influences the other. Joint variability between assets might occur because of shared sensitivities to external factors, such as interest rates or global sentiment, or it might be entirely coincidental. In other words, correlation does not provide sufficient information to identify cause-and-effect relationships.
• Correlation does not predict the future relationship between two assets. It only reflects the estimated strength and direction of the relationship between the current analyzed samples. Financial time series are ever-changing. A strong trend between two assets can weaken or reverse in the future.
Correlation coefficient
A correlation coefficient is a numeric measure of correlation. Several coefficients exist, each quantifying different types of relationships between two datasets. The most common and widely known measure is the Pearson product-moment correlation coefficient , also known as the Pearson correlation coefficient or Pearson's r . Usually, when the term "correlation coefficient" is used without context, it refers to this correlation measure.
The Pearson correlation coefficient quantifies the strength and direction of the linear relationship between two variables. In other words, it indicates how consistently variables' values move together or in opposite directions in a proportional, linear manner. Its formula is as follows:
𝑟(𝑥, 𝑦) = cov(𝑥, 𝑦) / (𝜎𝑥 * 𝜎𝑦)
Where:
• 𝑥 is the first variable, and 𝑦 is the second variable.
• cov(𝑥, 𝑦) is the covariance between 𝑥 and 𝑦.
• 𝜎𝑥 is the standard deviation of 𝑥.
• 𝜎𝑦 is the standard deviation of 𝑦.
In essence, the correlation coefficient measures the covariance between two variables, normalized by the product of their standard deviations. The coefficient's value ranges from -1 to 1, allowing a more straightforward interpretation of the relationship between two datasets than what covariance alone provides:
• A value of 1 indicates a perfect positive correlation over the analyzed sample. As one variable's value changes, the other variable's value changes proportionally in the same direction .
• A value of -1 indicates a perfect negative correlation (anticorrelation). As one variable's value increases, the other variable's value decreases proportionally.
• A value of 0 indicates no linear relationship between the variables over the analyzed sample.
Aligning returns across instruments
In a financial time series, each data point (i.e., bar) in a sample represents information collected in periodic intervals. For instance, on a "1D" chart, bars form at specific times as successive days elapse.
However, the times of the data points for a symbol's standard dataset depend on its active sessions , and sessions vary across instrument types. For example, the daily session for NYSE stocks is 09:30 - 16:00 UTC-4/-5 on weekdays, Forex instruments have 24-hour sessions that span from 17:00 UTC-4/-5 on one weekday to 17:00 on the next, and new daily sessions for cryptocurrencies start at 00:00 UTC every day because crypto markets are consistently open.
Therefore, comparing the standard datasets for different asset types to identify correlations presents a challenge. If two symbols' datasets have bars that form at unaligned times, their correlation coefficient does not accurately describe their relationship. When calculating correlations between the returns for two assets, both datasets must maintain consistent time alignment in their values and cover identical ranges for meaningful results.
To address the issue of time alignment across instruments, this indicator requests confirmed weekly or monthly data from spread tickers constructed from the chart's ticker and another specified ticker. The datasets for spreads are derived from lower-timeframe data to ensure the values from all symbols come from aligned points in time, allowing a fair comparison between different instrument types. Additionally, each spread ticker ID includes necessary modifiers, such as extended hours and adjustments.
In this indicator, we use the following process to retrieve time-aligned returns for correlation calculations:
1. Request the current and previous prices from a spread representing the sum of the chart symbol and another symbol ( "chartSymbol + anotherSymbol" ).
2. Request the prices from another spread representing the difference between the two symbols ( "chartSymbol - anotherSymbol" ).
3. Calculate half of the difference between the values from both spreads ( 0.5 * (requestedSum - requestedDifference) ). The results represent the symbol's prices at times aligned with the sample points on the current chart.
4. Calculate the arithmetic return of the retrieved prices: (currentPrice - previousPrice) / previousPrice
5. Repeat steps 1-4 for each symbol requiring analysis.
It's crucial to note that because this process retrieves prices for a symbol at times consistent with periodic points on the current chart, the values can represent prices from before or after the closing time of the symbol's usual session.
Additionally, note that the maximum number of weeks or months in the correlation calculations depends on the chart's range and the largest time range common to all the requested symbols. To maximize the amount of data available for the calculations, we recommend setting the chart to use a daily or higher timeframe and specifying a chart symbol that covers a sufficient time range for your needs.
█ FEATURES
This indicator analyzes the correlations between several pairs of user-specified symbols to provide a structured, intuitive view of the relationships in their returns. Below are the indicator's key features:
Requesting a list of securities
The "Symbol list" text box in the indicator's "Settings/Inputs" tab accepts a comma-separated list of symbols or ticker identifiers with optional spaces (e.g., "XOM, MSFT, BITSTAMP:BTCUSD"). The indicator dynamically requests returns for each symbol in the list, then calculates the correlation between each pair of return series for its heatmap display.
Each item in the list must represent a valid symbol or ticker ID. If the list includes an invalid symbol, the script raises a runtime error.
To specify a broker/exchange for a symbol, include its name as a prefix with a colon in the "EXCHANGE:SYMBOL" format. If a symbol in the list does not specify an exchange prefix, the indicator selects the most commonly used exchange when requesting the data.
Note that the number of symbols allowed in the list depends on the user's plan. Users with non-professional plans can compare up to 20 symbols with this indicator, and users with professional plans can compare up to 32 symbols.
Timeframe and data length selection
The "Returns timeframe" input specifies whether the indicator uses weekly or monthly returns in its calculations. By default, its value is "1M", meaning the indicator analyzes monthly returns. Note that this script requires a chart timeframe lower than or equal to "1M". If the chart uses a higher timeframe, it causes a runtime error.
To customize the length of the data used in the correlation calculations, use the "Max periods" input. When enabled, the indicator limits the calculation window to the number of periods specified in the input field. Otherwise, it uses the chart's time range as the limit. The top-left corner of the table shows the number of confirmed weeks or months used in the calculations.
It's important to note that the number of confirmed periods in the correlation calculations is limited to the largest time range common to all the requested datasets, because a meaningful correlation matrix requires analyzing each symbol's returns under the same market conditions. Therefore, the correlation matrix can show different results for the same symbol pair if another listed symbol restricts the aligned data to a shorter time range.
Heatmap display
This indicator displays the correlations for each symbol pair in a heatmap-styled table representing a symmetric correlation matrix. Each row and column corresponds to a specific symbol, and the cells at their intersections correspond to symbol pairs . For example, the cell at the "AAPL" row and "MSFT" column shows the weekly or monthly correlation between those two symbols' returns. Likewise, the cell at the "MSFT" row and "AAPL" column shows the same value.
Note that the main diagonal cells in the display, where the row and column refer to the same symbol, all show a value of 1 because any series of non-na data is always perfectly correlated with itself.
The background of each correlation cell uses a gradient color based on the correlation value. By default, the gradient uses blue hues for positive correlation, orange hues for negative correlation, and white for no correlation. The intensity of each blue or orange hue corresponds to the strength of the measured correlation or anticorrelation. Users can customize the gradient's base colors using the inputs in the "Color gradient" section of the "Settings/Inputs" tab.
█ FOR Pine Script® CODERS
• This script uses the `getArrayFromString()` function from our ValueAtTime library to process the input list of symbols. The function splits the "string" value by its commas, then constructs an array of non-empty strings without leading or trailing whitespaces. Additionally, it uses the str.upper() function to convert each symbol's characters to uppercase.
• The script's `getAlignedReturns()` function requests time-aligned prices with two request.security() calls that use spread tickers based on the chart's symbol and another symbol. Then, it calculates the arithmetic return using the `changePercent()` function from the ta library. The `collectReturns()` function uses `getAlignedReturns()` within a loop and stores the data from each call within a matrix . The script calls the `arrayCorrelation()` function on pairs of rows from the returned matrix to calculate the correlation values.
• For consistency, the `getAlignedReturns()` 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.
• A Pine script can execute up to 40 or 64 unique `request.*()` function calls, depending on the user's plan. The maximum number of symbols this script compares is half the plan's limit, because `getAlignedReturns()` uses two request.security() calls.
• This script can use the request.security() function within a loop because all scripts in Pine v6 enable dynamic requests by default. Refer to the Dynamic requests section of the Other timeframes and data page to learn more about this feature, and see our v6 migration guide to learn what's new in Pine v6.
• The script's table uses two distinct color.from_gradient() calls in a switch structure to determine the cell colors for positive and negative correlation values. One call calculates the color for values from -1 to 0 based on the first and second input colors, and the other calculates the colors for values from 0 to 1 based on the second and third input colors.
Look first. Then leap.
RSI Overlay Table with Pivot-Based Divergence and SortingThis script offers an advanced RSI-based overlay table designed to identify and highlight divergences across multiple timeframes (Daily, Weekly, Monthly) for up to 13 tickers. It employs a pivot-based detection mechanism that spots positive and negative divergences, helping traders identify potential trend reversals or continuations.
Key Features
1. Pivot-Based Divergence Detection:
The script uses pivot points to identify both positive and negative divergences using the RSI indicator and price movements.
User-adjustable pivot settings enhance detection sensitivity, providing traders with an opportunity to fine-tune divergence signals for different market conditions.
2. Multi-Timeframe Analysis:
Displays RSI values along with divergence signals for daily, weekly, and monthly timeframes.
Enables traders to monitor short-term, swing, and long-term trends on a single table, providing a comprehensive view.
3. Customizable Alerts and Visual Cues:
The script generates alerts whenever a divergence is detected, ensuring timely notifications.
Overbought and oversold levels are color-coded based on user-defined thresholds, with the "P-" and "N-" prefixes indicating positive and negative divergences, respectively.
4. User-Friendly Interface:
An intuitive table design allows for easy comparison of RSI levels and divergence signals across multiple tickers.
Offers customizable table positioning options (bottom left, center, right, or middle right) for convenient chart integration.
How to Use
Input Your Tickers: Add up to 13 tickers that you wish to monitor.
Adjust Pivot Settings: Fine-tune the 'Pivot Left Bars' and 'Pivot Right Bars' to optimize the pivot detection process.
Set Overbought/Oversold Levels: Define the RSI thresholds according to your trading strategy.
Enable Alerts: Receive notifications for divergence signals detected on any timeframe.
Concepts Underlying the Calculations
The script leverages the RSI (Relative Strength Index), a popular momentum indicator, to measure the velocity and magnitude of price changes. By comparing RSI values with pivot points, the script identifies divergences that suggest potential reversals. This method ensures more reliable signals than simple bar comparisons, as it accounts for broader market movements over time.
Why This Script Is Unique
This RSI overlay script stands out due to its multi-ticker, multi-timeframe divergence analysis and the use of pivot-based detection for higher accuracy. The integration of an alert system, combined with color-coded visual cues, makes it an actionable and comprehensive tool for traders.

Delta ZigZag [LuxAlgo]The Delta ZigZag indicator is focused on volume analysis during the development of ZigZag lines. Volume data can be retrieved from a Lower timeframe (LTF) or real-time Tick data.
Our Delta ZigZag publication can be helpful in detecting indications of a trend reversal or potential weakening/strengthening of the trend.
This indicator by its very nature backpaints, meaning that the displayed components are offset in the past.
🔶 USAGE
The ZigZag line is formed by connecting Swings , which can be set by adjusting the Left and Right settings.
Left is the number of bars for evaluation at the left of the evaluated point.
Right is the number of bars for evaluation at the right of the evaluated point.
A valid Swing is a value higher or lower than the bars at the left/right .
A higher Left or Right set number will generally create broader ZigZag ( ZZ ) lines, while the drawing of the ZZ line will be delayed (especially when Right is set higher). On the other hand, when Right is set at 0, ZZ line are drawn quickly. However, this results in a hyperactive switching of the ZZ direction.
To ensure maximum visibility of values, we recommend using " Bars " from the " Bar's style " menu.
🔹 Volume examination
The script provides two options for Volume examination :
Examination per ZigZag line
Examination per bar
Bullish Volume is volume associated with a green bar ( close > open )
Bearish Volume is volume associated with a red bar ( close < open )
Neutral Volume (volume on a " close == open" bar) is not included in this publication.
🔹 Examination per ZigZag line
As long as the price moves in the same direction, the present ZZ line will continue. When the direction of the price changes, the bull/bear volume of the previous ZZ line is evaluated and drawn on the chart.
The ZZ line is divided into two parts: a bullish green line and a bearish red line.
The intercept of these two lines will depend on the ratio of bullish/bearish volume
This ratio is displayed at the intercept as % bullish volume (Settings -> Show % Bullish Volume)
* Note that we cannot draw between 2 bars. Therefore, if a ZZ line is only 1 bar long, the intercept will be at one of those 2 bars and not in between. The percentage can be helpful in interpreting bull/bear volume.
In the example above (2 most right labels), you can see that an overlap of 2 labels is prevented, ensuring the ability to evaluate the bullish % volume of the ZZ line .
The percentage will be colored green when more than 50%, red otherwise. The color will fade when the direction is contradictory; for example, 40% when the ZZ line goes up or 70% when the ZZ line falls.
More details can be visualized by enabling " Show " and choosing 1 of 3 options:
Average Volume Delta/bar
Average Volume/bar
Normalised Volume Delta
For both 'averages', the sum of " Volume "/" Volume Delta " of every bar on the ZZ line is divided by the number of bars (per ZZ line ).
The " Normalised Volume Delta " is calculated by dividing the sum of " Delta Volume " by the sum of " Volume " (neutral volume not included), which is displayed as a percentage.
All three options will display a label at the last point of the ZZ line and be coloured similarly: green when the ratio bullish/bearish volume of the ZZ line is bullish and red otherwise. Here, the colour also fades when it is bullish, but the ZZ line falls or when it is bearish with a rising ZZ line .
A tooltip at each label hints at the chosen option.
You can pick one of the options or combine them together.
🔹 Examination per bar
Besides information about what's happening during the ZZ line , information per bar can be visualized by enabling " Show Details " in Settings .
Split Volume per bar : show the sum of bullish (upV) and bearish (dnV) volume per bar
Volume (bar) : Total Volume per bar (bullish + bearish volume, neutral volume not included)
Δ Volume (bar) : Show Delta Volume (bullish - bearish volume)
🔹 Using Lower Timeframe Data
The ZigZag lines using LTF data are colored brighter. Also note the vertical line where the LTF data starts and the gap between ZZ lines with LTF data and without.
When " LTF " is chosen for the " Data from: " option in Settings , data is retrieved from Lower Timeframe bars (default 1 minute). When the LTF setting is higher than the current chart timeframe, the LTF period will automatically be adjusted to the current timeframe to prevent errors.
As there is a 100K limit to the number of LTF intrabars that can be analyzed by a script, this implies the higher the difference between LTF and current TF; the fewer ZZ lines will be seen.
🔹 Using real-time tick data
The principles are mostly the same as those of LTF data. However, in contrast with LTF data, where you already have LTF ZZ lines when loading the script, real-time tick data-based ZZ lines will only start after loading the chart.
Changing the settings of a ticker will reset everything. However, returning to the same settings/ticker would show the cached data again.
Here, you can see that changing settings reset everything, but returning after 2 minutes to the initial settings shows the cached data. Don't expect it to be cached for hours or days, though.
🔶 DETAILS
The timeframe used for LTF data should always be the same or lower than the current TF; otherwise, an error occurs. This snippet prevents the error and adjusts the LTF to the current TF when LTF is too high:
res = input.timeframe('1')
res := timeframe.from_seconds( math.min( timeframe.in_seconds(timeframe.period), timeframe.in_seconds(res) ) )
🔶 SETTINGS
Data from: LTF (Lower TimeFrame) or Ticks (Real-time ticks)
Res: Lower TimeFrame (only applicable when choosing LTF )
Option: choose " high/low " or " close " for Swing detection
🔹 ZigZag
Left: Lookback period for Swings
Right: Confirmation period after potential Swing
🔹 ZigZag Delta
Show % Bullish Volume : % bullish volume against total volume during the ZZ line
Show:
Average Volume Delta/bar
Average Volume/bar
Normalised Volume Delta
See USAGE for more information
🔹 Bar Data
Split Volume per bar: shows the sum of bullish ( upV ) and bearish ( dnV ) volume per bar
Volume (bar): Total Volume per bar (bullish + bearish volume, neutral volume not included)
Δ Volume (bar): Show Volume Delta (bullish - bearish volume)
Order Chain [Kioseff Trading]Hello!
This indicator "Order Chain" uses live tick data (varip) to retrieve live tick volume.
This indicator must be used on a live market with volume data
Features
Live Tick Volume
Live Tick Volume Delta
Orders are appended to boxes, whose width and height are scaled proportional to the size of the order.
CVD recorded at relevant tick levels
Order chain spans up to 450 ticks (might include aggregates)
The image above shows key features for the indicator!
The image above explains line and color placements.
The image above shows the indicator in action for a live market!
How It Works
The indicator records the difference in volume from "now" and the previous tick. Predicated on whether the "now" price is greater than or less than price one tick prior, the difference in volume is recorded as "buy" or "sell" volume.
This filled order (or aggregates) is colored in congruence with price direction. The filled order is subsequently appended to its relevant tick level and added (buy order) or subtracted (sell order) from the CVD value at the identified tick level.
Of course, thank you to @PineCoders and @RicardoSantos for their awesome libraries :D
Thank you!

LibraryCOT█ OVERVIEW
This library is a Pine programmer's tool that provides functions to access Commitment of Traders (COT) data for futures. Four of our scripts use it:
• Commitment of Traders: Legacy Metrics
• Commitment of Traders: Disaggregated Metrics
• Commitment of Traders: Financial Metrics
• Commitment of Traders: Total
If you do not program in Pine and want to use COT data, please see the indicators linked above.
█ CONCEPTS
Commitment of Traders (COT) data is tallied by the Commodity Futures Trading Commission (CFTC) , a US federal agency that oversees the trading of derivative markets such as futures in the US. It is weekly data that provides traders with information about open interest for an asset. The CFTC oversees derivative markets traded on different exchanges, so COT data is available for assets that can be traded on CBOT, CME, NYMEX, COMEX, and ICEUS.
Accessing COT data from a Pine script requires the generation of a ticker ID string for use with request.security() . The ticker string must be encoded in a special format that includes both CFTC and TradingView-specific content. The format of the ticker IDs is somewhat complex; this library's functions make their generation easier. Note that if you know the COT ticker ID string for specific data, you can enter it from the chart's "Symbol Search" dialog box.
A ticker for COT data in Pine has the following structure:
COT:__<_metricDirection><_metricType>
where an underscore prefixing a component name inside <> is only included if the component is not a null string, and:
Is a digit representing the type of the COT report the data comes from: "" for legacy COT data, "2" for disaggregated data and "3" for financial data.
Is a six digit code that represents a commodity. Example: wheat futures (root "ZW") have the code "001602".
Is either "F" if the report data should exclude Options data, or "FO" if such data is included.
Is the TradingView code of the metric. This library's `metricNameAndDirectionToTicker()` function creates both
the and components of a COT ticker from the metric names and directions listed in the above chart.
The different metrics are explained in the CFTC's Explanatory Notes .
Is the direction of the metric: "Long", "Short", "Spreading" or "No direction".
Not all directions are applicable to all metrics. The valid ones are listed next to each metric in the above chart.
Is the type of the metric, possible values are "All", "Old" and "Other".
The difference between the types is explained in the "Old and Other Futures" section of the CFTC's Explanatory Notes .
As an example, the Legacy report Open Interest data for ZW futures (options included) in the old standard has the ticker "COT:001602_FO_OI_OLD". The same data using the current standard without futures has the ticker "COT:001602_F_OI".
█ USING THE LIBRARY
The first functions in the library are helper functions that generate components of a COT ticker ID. The last function, `COTTickerid()`, is the one that generates the full ticker ID string by calling some of the helper functions. We use it like this in our example:
exampleTicker = COTTickerid(
COTType = "Legacy",
CFTCCode = convertRootToCOTCode("Auto"),
includeOptions = false,
metricName = "Open Interest",
metricDirection = "No direction",
metricType = "All")
This library's chart displays the valid values for the `metricName` and `metricDirection` arguments. They vary for each of the three types of COT data (the `COTType` argument). The chart also displays the COT ticker ID string in the `exampleTicker` variable.
Look first. Then leap.
The library's functions are:
rootToCFTCCode(root)
Accepts a futures root and returns the relevant CFTC code.
Parameters:
root : Root prefix of the future's symbol, e.g. "ZC" for "ZC1!"" or "ZCU2021".
Returns: The part of a COT ticker corresponding to `root`, or "" if no CFTC code exists for the `root`.
currencyToCFTCCode(curr)
Converts a currency string to its corresponding CFTC code.
Parameters:
curr : Currency code, e.g., "USD" for US Dollar.
Returns: The corresponding to the currency, if one exists.
optionsToTicker(includeOptions)
Returns the part of a COT ticker using the `includeOptions` value supplied, which determines whether options data is to be included.
Parameters:
includeOptions : A "bool" value: 'true' if the symbol should include options and 'false' otherwise.
Returns: The part of a COT ticker: "FO" for data that includes options and "F" for data that doesn't.
metricNameAndDirectionToTicker(metricName, metricDirection)
Returns a string corresponding to a metric name and direction, which is one component required to build a valid COT ticker ID.
Parameters:
metricName : One of the metric names listed in this library's chart. Invalid values will cause a runtime error.
metricDirection : Metric direction. Possible values are: "Long", "Short", "Spreading", and "No direction".
Valid values vary with metrics. Invalid values will cause a runtime error.
Returns: The part of a COT ticker ID string, e.g., "OI_OLD" for "Open Interest" and "No direction",
or "TC_L" for "Traders Commercial" and "Long".
typeToTicker(metricType)
Converts a metric type into one component required to build a valid COT ticker ID.
See the "Old and Other Futures" section of the CFTC's Explanatory Notes for details on types.
Parameters:
metricType : Metric type. Accepted values are: "All", "Old", "Other".
Returns: The part of a COT ticker.
convertRootToCOTCode(mode, convertToCOT)
Depending on the `mode`, returns a CFTC code using the chart's symbol or its currency information when `convertToCOT = true`.
Otherwise, returns the symbol's root or currency information. If no COT data exists, a runtime error is generated.
Parameters:
mode : A string determining how the function will work. Valid values are:
"Root": the function extracts the futures symbol root (e.g. "ES" in "ESH2020") and looks for its CFTC code.
"Base currency": the function extracts the first currency in a pair (e.g. "EUR" in "EURUSD") and looks for its CFTC code.
"Currency": the function extracts the quote currency ("JPY" for "TSE:9984" or "USDJPY") and looks for its CFTC code.
"Auto": the function tries the first three modes (Root -> Base Currency -> Currency) until a match is found.
convertToCOT : "bool" value that, when `true`, causes the function to return a CFTC code.
Otherwise, the root or currency information is returned. Optional. The default is `true`.
Returns: If `convertToCOT` is `true`, the part of a COT ticker ID string.
If `convertToCOT` is `false`, the root or currency extracted from the current symbol.
COTTickerid(COTType, CTFCCode, includeOptions, metricName, metricDirection, metricType)
Returns a valid TradingView ticker for the COT symbol with specified parameters.
Parameters:
COTType : A string with the type of the report requested with the ticker, one of the following: "Legacy", "Disaggregated", "Financial".

Delay Estimatorthis script can be used to adjust one of the free realtime tickers (such as SPX500, NAS100) to "look" like one of the delayed futures tickers (such as ES1!, NQ1!). This basically allows us to get an estimate of the realtime futures ticker price.
it uses bollinger bands to adjust the volatility and offset of the realtime ticker
it also provides a decimator to reduce the price into ticks, since futures often use 4 ticks per point

Strategy Components
1. Market Regime Detection
The strategy’s brain is its ability to classify market conditions into five regimes, ensuring signals match the environment.
How It Works:
Trending (Regime 1): ADX > 20, fast/slow EMA spread > 0.3x ATR, HTF RSI > 50 or MACD bullish (htf_trend_bull/bear).
Range (Regime 2): ADX < 25, price range < 3% of close, no HTF trend.
Volatile (Regime 3): BB width > 1.5x avg, ATR > 1.2x avg, HTF RSI overbought/oversold.
Quiet (Regime 4): BB width < 0.8x avg, ATR < 0.9x avg.
Other (Regime 5): Default for unclear conditions.
Indicators: ADX (14), BB width (20), ATR (14, 50-bar SMA), HTF RSI (14, daily default), HTF MACD (12,26,9).
Why It’s Brilliant:
Regime detection adapts signals to market context, boosting win rates in trending or volatile conditions.
HTF RSI/MACD add a big-picture filter, rare in basic scripts.
Visualized via gradient background (green for Trending, orange for Range, red for Volatile, gray for Quiet, navy for Other).
2. Multi-Factor Signal Scoring
Entries are driven by a weighted scoring system that combines candlestick patterns, trend, momentum, and volume for robust signals.
Candlestick Patterns:
Bullish: Engulfing (0.5), hammer (0.4 in Range, 0.2 else), morning star (0.2), piercing (0.2), double bottom (0.3 in Volatile, 0.15 else). Must be near support (low ≤ 1.01x 20-bar low) with volume spike (>1.5x 20-bar avg).
Bearish: Engulfing (0.5), shooting star (0.4 in Range, 0.2 else), evening star (0.2), dark cloud (0.2), double top (0.3 in Volatile, 0.15 else). Must be near resistance (high ≥ 0.99x 20-bar high) with volume spike.
Logic: Patterns are weighted higher in specific regimes (e.g., hammer in Range, double bottom in Volatile).
Additional Factors:
Trend: Fast EMA (20) > slow EMA (50) + 0.5x ATR (trend_bull, +0.2); opposite for trend_bear.
RSI: RSI (14) < 30 (rsi_bull, +0.15); > 70 (rsi_bear, +0.15).
MACD: MACD line > signal (12,26,9, macd_bull, +0.15); opposite for macd_bear.
Volume: ATR > 1.2x 50-bar avg (vol_expansion, +0.1).
HTF Confirmation: HTF RSI < 70 and MACD bullish (htf_bull_confirm, +0.2); RSI > 30 and MACD bearish (htf_bear_confirm, +0.2).
Scoring:
bull_score = sum of bullish factors; bear_score = sum of bearish. Entry requires score ≥ 1.0.
Example: Bullish engulfing (0.5) + trend_bull (0.2) + rsi_bull (0.15) + htf_bull_confirm (0.2) = 1.05, triggers long.
Why It’s Brilliant:
Multi-factor scoring ensures signals are confirmed by multiple market dynamics, reducing false positives.
Regime-specific weights make patterns more relevant (e.g., hammers shine in Range markets).
HTF confirmation aligns with the big picture, a quant edge over simplistic scripts.
3. Futures-Tuned Risk Management
The risk system is built for futures, calculating position sizes based on $ risk and offering flexible stops/TPs.
Position Sizing:
Logic: Risk per trade (default: $300) ÷ (stop distance in points * point value) = contracts, capped at max_contracts (default: 5). Point value = tick value (e.g., $12.5 for ES) * ticks per point (4) * contract multiplier (1 for ES, 0.1 for MES).
Example: $300 risk, 8-point stop, ES ($50/point) → 0.75 contracts, rounded to 1.
Impact: Precise sizing prevents over-leverage, critical for micro contracts like MES.
Stops and Take-Profits:
Fixed: Default stop = 8 points, TP = 16 points (2:1 reward/risk).
ATR-Based: Stop = 1.5x ATR (default), TP = 3x ATR, enabled via use_atr_for_stops.
Logic: Stops set at swing low/high ± stop distance; TPs at 2x stop distance from entry.
Impact: ATR stops adapt to volatility, while fixed stops suit stable markets.
Trailing Stops:
Logic: Activates at 50% of TP distance. Trails at close ± 1.5x ATR (atr_multiplier). Longs: max(trail_stop_long, close - ATR * 1.5); shorts: min(trail_stop_short, close + ATR * 1.5).
Impact: Locks in profits during trends, a game-changer in volatile sessions.
Circuit Breaker:
Logic: Pauses trading if daily drawdown > 5% (daily_drawdown = (max_equity - equity) / max_equity).
Impact: Protects capital during black swan events (e.g., April 27, 2025 ES slippage).
Why It’s Brilliant:
Futures-specific inputs (tick value, multiplier) make it plug-and-play for ES/MES.
Trailing stops and circuit breaker add pro-level safety, rare in off-the-shelf scripts.
Flexible stops (ATR or fixed) suit different trading styles.
4. Trade Entry and Exit Logic
Entries and exits are precise, driven by bull_score/bear_score and protected by drawdown checks.
Entry Conditions:
Long: bull_score ≥ 1.0, no position (position_size <= 0), drawdown < 5% (not pause_trading). Calculates contracts, sets stop at swing low - stop points, TP at 2x stop distance.
Short: bear_score ≥ 1.0, position_size >= 0, drawdown < 5%. Stop at swing high + stop points, TP at 2x stop distance.
Logic: Tracks entry_regime for PNL arrays. Closes opposite positions before entering.
Exit Conditions:
Stop-Loss/Take-Profit: Hits stop or TP (strategy.exit).
Trailing Stop: Activates at 50% TP, trails by ATR * 1.5.
Emergency Exit: Closes if price breaches stop (close < long_stop_price or close > short_stop_price).
Reset: Clears stop/TP prices when flat (position_size = 0).
Why It’s Brilliant:
Score-based entries ensure multi-factor confirmation, filtering out weak signals.
Trailing stops maximize profits in trends, unlike static exits in basic scripts.
Emergency exits add an extra safety layer, critical for futures volatility.
5. DAFE Visuals
The visuals are pure DAFE magic, blending function with cyberpunk flair to make signals intuitive and charts stunning.
Shimmering Bollinger Band Fill:
Display: BB basis (20, white), upper/lower (green/red, 45% transparent). Fill pulses (30–50 alpha) by regime, with glow (60–95 alpha) near bands (close ≥ 0.995x upper or ≤ 1.005x lower).
Purpose: Highlights volatility and key levels with a futuristic glow.
Visuals make complex regimes and signals instantly clear, even for newbies.
Pulsing effects and regime-specific colors add a DAFE signature, setting it apart from generic scripts.
BB glow emphasizes tradeable levels, enhancing decision-making.
Chart Background (Regime Heatmap):
Green — Trending Market: Strong, sustained price movement in one direction. The market is in a trend phase—momentum follows through.
Orange — Range-Bound: Market is consolidating or moving sideways, with no clear up/down trend. Great for mean reversion setups.
Red — Volatile Regime: High volatility, heightened risk, and larger/faster price swings—trade with caution.
Gray — Quiet/Low Volatility: Market is calm and inactive, with small moves—often poor conditions for most strategies.
Navy — Other/Neutral: Regime is uncertain or mixed; signals may be less reliable.
Bollinger Bands Glow (Dynamic Fill):
Neon Red Glow — Warning!: Price is near or breaking above the upper band; momentum is overstretched, watch for overbought conditions or reversals.
Bright Green Glow — Opportunity!: Price is near or breaking below the lower band; market could be oversold, prime for bounce or reversal.
Trend Green Fill — Trending Regime: Fills between bands with green when the market is trending, showing clear momentum.
Gold/Yellow Fill — Range Regime: Fills with gold/aqua in range conditions, showing the market is sideways/oscillating.
Magenta/Red Fill — Volatility Spike: Fills with vivid magenta/red during highly volatile regimes.
Blue Fill — Neutral/Quiet: A soft blue glow for other or uncertain market states.
Moving Averages:
Display: Blue fast EMA (20), red slow EMA (50), 2px.
Purpose: Shows trend direction, with trend_dir requiring ATR-scaled spread.
Dynamic SL/TP Lines:
Display: Pulsing colors (red SL, green TP for Trending; yellow/orange for Range, etc.), 3px, with pulse_alpha for shimmer.
Purpose: Tracks stops/TPs in real-time, color-coded by regime.
6. Dual Dashboards
Two dashboards deliver real-time insights, making the strat a quant command center.
Bottom-Left Metrics Dashboard (2x13):
Metrics: Mode (Active/Paused), trend (Bullish/Bearish/Neutral), ATR, ATR avg, volume spike (YES/NO), RSI (value + Oversold/Overbought/Neutral), HTF RSI, HTF trend, last signal (Buy/Sell/None), regime, bull score.
Display: Black (29% transparent), purple title, color-coded (green for bullish, red for bearish).
Purpose: Consolidates market context and signal strength.
Top-Right Position Dashboard (2x7):
Metrics: Regime, position side (Long/Short/None), position PNL ($), SL, TP, daily PNL ($).
Display: Black (29% transparent), purple title, color-coded (lime for Long, red for Short).
Purpose: Tracks live trades and profitability.
Why It’s Brilliant:
Dual dashboards cover market context and trade status, a rare feature.
Color-coding and concise metrics guide beginners (e.g., green “Buy” = go).
Real-time PNL and SL/TP visibility empower disciplined trading.
7. Performance Tracking
Logic: Arrays (regime_pnl_long/short, regime_win/loss_long/short) track PNL and win/loss by regime (1–5). Updated on trade close (barstate.isconfirmed).
Purpose: Prepares for future adaptive thresholds (e.g., adjust bull_score min based on regime performance).
Why It’s Brilliant: Lays the groundwork for self-optimizing logic, a quant edge over static scripts.
Key Features

MultiLayer Acceleration/Deceleration Strategy [Skyrexio]Overview
MultiLayer Acceleration/Deceleration Strategy leverages the combination of Acceleration/Deceleration Indicator(AC), Williams Alligator, Williams Fractals and Exponential Moving Average (EMA) to obtain the high probability long setups. Moreover, strategy uses multi trades system, adding funds to long position if it considered that current trend has likely became stronger. Acceleration/Deceleration Indicator is used for creating signals, while Alligator and Fractal are used in conjunction as an approximation of short-term trend to filter them. At the same time EMA (default EMA's period = 100) is used as high probability long-term trend filter to open long trades only if it considers current price action as an uptrend. More information in "Methodology" and "Justification of Methodology" paragraphs. The strategy opens only long trades.
Unique Features
No fixed stop-loss and take profit: Instead of fixed stop-loss level strategy utilizes technical condition obtained by Fractals and Alligator to identify when current uptrend is likely to be over (more information in "Methodology" and "Justification of Methodology" paragraphs)
Configurable Trading Periods: Users can tailor the strategy to specific market windows, adapting to different market conditions.
Multilayer trades opening system: strategy uses only 10% of capital in every trade and open up to 5 trades at the same time if script consider current trend as strong one.
Short and long term trend trade filters: strategy uses EMA as high probability long-term trend filter and Alligator and Fractal combination as a short-term one.
Methodology
The strategy opens long trade when the following price met the conditions:
1. Price closed above EMA (by default, period = 100). Crossover is not obligatory.
2. Combination of Alligator and Williams Fractals shall consider current trend as an upward (all details in "Justification of Methodology" paragraph)
3. Acceleration/Deceleration shall create one of two types of long signals (all details in "Justification of Methodology" paragraph). Buy stop order is placed one tick above the candle's high of last created long signal.
4. If price reaches the order price, long position is opened with 10% of capital.
5. If currently we have opened position and price creates and hit the order price of another one long signal, another one long position will be added to the previous with another one 10% of capital. Strategy allows to open up to 5 long trades simultaneously.
6. If combination of Alligator and Williams Fractals shall consider current trend has been changed from up to downtrend, all long trades will be closed, no matter how many trades has been opened.
Script also has additional visuals. If second long trade has been opened simultaneously the Alligator's teeth line is plotted with the green color. Also for every trade in a row from 2 to 5 the label "Buy More" is also plotted just below the teeth line. With every next simultaneously opened trade the green color of the space between teeth and price became less transparent.
Strategy settings
In the inputs window user can setup strategy setting: EMA Length (by default = 100, period of EMA, used for long-term trend filtering EMA calculation). User can choose the optimal parameters during backtesting on certain price chart.
Justification of Methodology
Let's explore the key concepts of this strategy and understand how they work together. We'll begin with the simplest: the EMA.
The Exponential Moving Average (EMA) is a type of moving average that assigns greater weight to recent price data, making it more responsive to current market changes compared to the Simple Moving Average (SMA). This tool is widely used in technical analysis to identify trends and generate buy or sell signals. The EMA is calculated as follows:
1.Calculate the Smoothing Multiplier:
Multiplier = 2 / (n + 1), Where n is the number of periods.
2. EMA Calculation
EMA = (Current Price) × Multiplier + (Previous EMA) × (1 − Multiplier)
In this strategy, the EMA acts as a long-term trend filter. For instance, long trades are considered only when the price closes above the EMA (default: 100-period). This increases the likelihood of entering trades aligned with the prevailing trend.
Next, let’s discuss the short-term trend filter, which combines the Williams Alligator and Williams Fractals. Williams Alligator
Developed by Bill Williams, the Alligator is a technical indicator that identifies trends and potential market reversals. It consists of three smoothed moving averages:
Jaw (Blue Line): The slowest of the three, based on a 13-period smoothed moving average shifted 8 bars ahead.
Teeth (Red Line): The medium-speed line, derived from an 8-period smoothed moving average shifted 5 bars forward.
Lips (Green Line): The fastest line, calculated using a 5-period smoothed moving average shifted 3 bars forward.
When the lines diverge and align in order, the "Alligator" is "awake," signaling a strong trend. When the lines overlap or intertwine, the "Alligator" is "asleep," indicating a range-bound or sideways market. This indicator helps traders determine when to enter or avoid trades.
Fractals, another tool by Bill Williams, help identify potential reversal points on a price chart. A fractal forms over at least five consecutive bars, with the middle bar showing either:
Up Fractal: Occurs when the middle bar has a higher high than the two preceding and two following bars, suggesting a potential downward reversal.
Down Fractal: Happens when the middle bar shows a lower low than the surrounding two bars, hinting at a possible upward reversal.
Traders often use fractals alongside other indicators to confirm trends or reversals, enhancing decision-making accuracy.
How do these tools work together in this strategy? Let’s consider an example of an uptrend.
When the price breaks above an up fractal, it signals a potential bullish trend. This occurs because the up fractal represents a shift in market behavior, where a temporary high was formed due to selling pressure. If the price revisits this level and breaks through, it suggests the market sentiment has turned bullish.
The breakout must occur above the Alligator’s teeth line to confirm the trend. A breakout below the teeth is considered invalid, and the downtrend might still persist. Conversely, in a downtrend, the same logic applies with down fractals.
In this strategy if the most recent up fractal breakout occurs above the Alligator's teeth and follows the last down fractal breakout below the teeth, the algorithm identifies an uptrend. Long trades can be opened during this phase if a signal aligns. If the price breaks a down fractal below the teeth line during an uptrend, the strategy assumes the uptrend has ended and closes all open long trades.
By combining the EMA as a long-term trend filter with the Alligator and fractals as short-term filters, this approach increases the likelihood of opening profitable trades while staying aligned with market dynamics.
Now let's talk about Acceleration/Deceleration signals. AC indicator is calculated using the Awesome Oscillator, so let's first of all briefly explain what is Awesome Oscillator and how it can be calculated. The Awesome Oscillator (AO), developed by Bill Williams, is a momentum indicator designed to measure market momentum by contrasting recent price movements with a longer-term historical perspective. It helps traders detect potential trend reversals and assess the strength of ongoing trends.
The formula for AO is as follows:
AO = SMA5(Median Price) − SMA34(Median Price)
where:
Median Price = (High + Low) / 2
SMA5 = 5-period Simple Moving Average of the Median Price
SMA 34 = 34-period Simple Moving Average of the Median Price
The Acceleration/Deceleration (AC) Indicator, introduced by Bill Williams, measures the rate of change in market momentum. It highlights shifts in the driving force of price movements and helps traders spot early signs of trend changes. The AC Indicator is particularly useful for identifying whether the current momentum is accelerating or decelerating, which can indicate potential reversals or continuations. For AC calculation we shall use the AO calculated above is the following formula:
AC = AO − SMA5(AO), where SMA5(AO)is the 5-period Simple Moving Average of the Awesome Oscillator
When the AC is above the zero line and rising, it suggests accelerating upward momentum.
When the AC is below the zero line and falling, it indicates accelerating downward momentum.
When the AC is below zero line and rising it suggests the decelerating the downtrend momentum. When AC is above the zero line and falling, it suggests the decelerating the uptrend momentum.
Now we can explain which AC signal types are used in this strategy. The first type of long signal is when AC value is below zero line. In this cases we need to see three rising bars on the histogram in a row after the falling one. The second type of signals occurs above the zero line. There we need only two rising AC bars in a row after the falling one to create the signal. The signal bar is the last green bar in this sequence. The strategy places the buy stop order one tick above the candle's high, which corresponds to the signal bar on AC indicator.
After that we can have the following scenarios:
Price hit the order on the next candle in this case strategy opened long with this price.
Price doesn't hit the order price, the next candle set lower high. If current AC bar is increasing buy stop order changes by the script to the high of this new bar plus one tick. This procedure repeats until price finally hit buy order or current AC bar become decreasing. In the second case buy order cancelled and strategy wait for the next AC signal.
If long trades are initiated, the strategy continues utilizing subsequent signals until the total number of trades reaches a maximum of 5. All open trades are closed when the trend shifts to a downtrend, as determined by the combination of the Alligator and Fractals described earlier.
Why we use AC signals? If currently strategy algorithm considers the high probability of the short-term uptrend with the Alligator and Fractals combination pointed out above and the long-term trend is also suggested by the EMA filter as bullish. Rising AC bars after period of falling AC bars indicates the high probability of local pull back end and there is a high chance to open long trade in the direction of the most likely main uptrend. The numbers of rising bars are different for the different AC values (below or above zero line). This is needed because if AC below zero line the local downtrend is likely to be stronger and needs more rising bars to confirm that it has been changed than if AC is above zero.
Why strategy use only 10% per signal? Sometimes we can see the false signals which appears on sideways. Not risking that much script use only 10% per signal. If the first long trade has been open and price continue going up and our trend approximation by Alligator and Fractals is uptrend, strategy add another one 10% of capital to every next AC signal while number of active trades no more than 5. This capital allocation allows to take part in long trades when current uptrend is likely to be strong and use only 10% of capital when there is a high probability of sideways.

MultiLayer Awesome Oscillator Saucer Strategy [Skyrexio]Overview
MultiLayer Awesome Oscillator Saucer Strategy leverages the combination of Awesome Oscillator (AO), Williams Alligator, Williams Fractals and Exponential Moving Average (EMA) to obtain the high probability long setups. Moreover, strategy uses multi trades system, adding funds to long position if it considered that current trend has likely became stronger. Awesome Oscillator is used for creating signals, while Alligator and Fractal are used in conjunction as an approximation of short-term trend to filter them. At the same time EMA (default EMA's period = 100) is used as high probability long-term trend filter to open long trades only if it considers current price action as an uptrend. More information in "Methodology" and "Justification of Methodology" paragraphs. The strategy opens only long trades.
Unique Features
No fixed stop-loss and take profit: Instead of fixed stop-loss level strategy utilizes technical condition obtained by Fractals and Alligator to identify when current uptrend is likely to be over (more information in "Methodology" and "Justification of Methodology" paragraphs)
Configurable Trading Periods: Users can tailor the strategy to specific market windows, adapting to different market conditions.
Multilayer trades opening system: strategy uses only 10% of capital in every trade and open up to 5 trades at the same time if script consider current trend as strong one.
Short and long term trend trade filters: strategy uses EMA as high probability long-term trend filter and Alligator and Fractal combination as a short-term one.
Methodology
The strategy opens long trade when the following price met the conditions:
1. Price closed above EMA (by default, period = 100). Crossover is not obligatory.
2. Combination of Alligator and Williams Fractals shall consider current trend as an upward (all details in "Justification of Methodology" paragraph)
3. Awesome Oscillator shall create the "Saucer" long signal (all details in "Justification of Methodology" paragraph). Buy stop order is placed one tick above the candle's high of last created "Saucer signal".
4. If price reaches the order price, long position is opened with 10% of capital.
5. If currently we have opened position and price creates and hit the order price of another one "Saucer" signal another one long position will be added to the previous with another one 10% of capital. Strategy allows to open up to 5 long trades simultaneously.
6. If combination of Alligator and Williams Fractals shall consider current trend has been changed from up to downtrend, all long trades will be closed, no matter how many trades has been opened.
Script also has additional visuals. If second long trade has been opened simultaneously the Alligator's teeth line is plotted with the green color. Also for every trade in a row from 2 to 5 the label "Buy More" is also plotted just below the teeth line. With every next simultaneously opened trade the green color of the space between teeth and price became less transparent.
Strategy settings
In the inputs window user can setup strategy setting: EMA Length (by default = 100, period of EMA, used for long-term trend filtering EMA calculation). User can choose the optimal parameters during backtesting on certain price chart.
Justification of Methodology
Let's go through all concepts used in this strategy to understand how they works together. Let's start from the easies one, the EMA. Let's briefly explain what is EMA. The Exponential Moving Average (EMA) is a type of moving average that gives more weight to recent prices, making it more responsive to current price changes compared to the Simple Moving Average (SMA). It is commonly used in technical analysis to identify trends and generate buy or sell signals. It can be calculated with the following steps:
1.Calculate the Smoothing Multiplier:
Multiplier = 2 / (n + 1), Where n is the number of periods.
2. EMA Calculation
EMA = (Current Price) × Multiplier + (Previous EMA) × (1 − Multiplier)
In this strategy uses EMA an initial long term trend filter. It allows to open long trades only if price close above EMA (by default 50 period). It increases the probability of taking long trades only in the direction of the trend.
Let's go to the next, short-term trend filter which consists of Alligator and Fractals. Let's briefly explain what do these indicators means. The Williams Alligator, developed by Bill Williams, is a technical indicator designed to spot trends and potential market reversals. It uses three smoothed moving averages, referred to as the jaw, teeth, and lips:
Jaw (Blue Line): The slowest of the three, based on a 13-period smoothed moving average shifted 8 bars ahead.
Teeth (Red Line): The medium-speed line, derived from an 8-period smoothed moving average shifted 5 bars forward.
Lips (Green Line): The fastest line, calculated using a 5-period smoothed moving average shifted 3 bars forward.
When these lines diverge and are properly aligned, the "alligator" is considered "awake," signaling a strong trend. Conversely, when the lines overlap or intertwine, the "alligator" is "asleep," indicating a range-bound or sideways market. This indicator assists traders in identifying when to act on or avoid trades.
The Williams Fractals, another tool introduced by Bill Williams, are used to pinpoint potential reversal points on a price chart. A fractal forms when there are at least five consecutive bars, with the middle bar displaying the highest high (for an up fractal) or the lowest low (for a down fractal), relative to the two bars on either side.
Key Points:
Up Fractal: Occurs when the middle bar has a higher high than the two preceding and two following bars, suggesting a potential downward reversal.
Down Fractal: Happens when the middle bar shows a lower low than the surrounding two bars, hinting at a possible upward reversal.
Traders often combine fractals with other indicators to confirm trends or reversals, improving the accuracy of trading decisions.
How we use their combination in this strategy? Let’s consider an uptrend example. A breakout above an up fractal can be interpreted as a bullish signal, indicating a high likelihood that an uptrend is beginning. Here's the reasoning: an up fractal represents a potential shift in market behavior. When the fractal forms, it reflects a pullback caused by traders selling, creating a temporary high. However, if the price manages to return to that fractal’s high and break through it, it suggests the market has "changed its mind" and a bullish trend is likely emerging.
The moment of the breakout marks the potential transition to an uptrend. It’s crucial to note that this breakout must occur above the Alligator's teeth line. If it happens below, the breakout isn’t valid, and the downtrend may still persist. The same logic applies inversely for down fractals in a downtrend scenario.
So, if last up fractal breakout was higher, than Alligator's teeth and it happened after last down fractal breakdown below teeth, algorithm considered current trend as an uptrend. During this uptrend long trades can be opened if signal was flashed. If during the uptrend price breaks down the down fractal below teeth line, strategy considered that uptrend is finished with the high probability and strategy closes all current long trades. This combination is used as a short term trend filter increasing the probability of opening profitable long trades in addition to EMA filter, described above.
Now let's talk about Awesome Oscillator's "Sauser" signals. Briefly explain what is the Awesome Oscillator. The Awesome Oscillator (AO), created by Bill Williams, is a momentum-based indicator that evaluates market momentum by comparing recent price activity to a broader historical context. It assists traders in identifying potential trend reversals and gauging trend strength.
AO = SMA5(Median Price) − SMA34(Median Price)
where:
Median Price = (High + Low) / 2
SMA5 = 5-period Simple Moving Average of the Median Price
SMA 34 = 34-period Simple Moving Average of the Median Price
Now we know what is AO, but what is the "Saucer" signal? This concept was introduced by Bill Williams, let's briefly explain it and how it's used by this strategy. Initially, this type of signal is a combination of the following AO bars: we need 3 bars in a row, the first one shall be higher than the second, the third bar also shall be higher, than second. All three bars shall be above the zero line of AO. The price bar, which corresponds to third "saucer's" bar is our signal bar. Strategy places buy stop order one tick above the price bar which corresponds to signal bar.
After that we can have the following scenarios.
Price hit the order on the next candle in this case strategy opened long with this price.
Price doesn't hit the order price, the next candle set lower low. If current AO bar is increasing buy stop order changes by the script to the high of this new bar plus one tick. This procedure repeats until price finally hit buy order or current AO bar become decreasing. In the second case buy order cancelled and strategy wait for the next "Saucer" signal.
If long trades has been opened strategy use all the next signals until number of trades doesn't exceed 5. All trades are closed when the trend changes to downtrend according to combination of Alligator and Fractals described above.
Why we use "Saucer" signals? If AO above the zero line there is a high probability that price now is in uptrend if we take into account our two trend filters. When we see the decreasing bars on AO and it's above zero it's likely can be considered as a pullback on the uptrend. When we see the stop of AO decreasing and the first increasing bar has been printed there is a high probability that this local pull back is finished and strategy open long trade in the likely direction of a main trend.
Why strategy use only 10% per signal? Sometimes we can see the false signals which appears on sideways. Not risking that much script use only 10% per signal. If the first long trade has been open and price continue going up and our trend approximation by Alligator and Fractals is uptrend, strategy add another one 10% of capital to every next saucer signal while number of active trades no more than 5. This capital allocation allows to take part in long trades when current uptrend is likely to be strong and use only 10% of capital when there is a high probability of sideways.

US Sentiment Index [CryptoSea]The US Sentiment Index is an advanced analytical tool designed for traders seeking to uncover patterns, correlations, and potential leading signals across key market tickers. This indicator surpasses traditional sentiment measures, providing a data-driven approach that offers deeper insights compared to conventional indices like the Fear and Greed Index.
Key Features
Multi-Ticker Analysis: Integrates data from a diverse set of market indicators, including gold, S&P 500, U.S. Dollar Index, Volatility Index, and more, to create a comprehensive view of market sentiment.
Customisable Sensitivity Settings: Allows users to adjust the moving average period to fine-tune the sensitivity of sentiment calculations, adapting the tool to various market conditions and trading strategies.
Detailed Sentiment Scaling: Utilises a 0-100 scale to quantify sentiment strength, with colour gradients that visually represent bearish, neutral, and bullish conditions, aiding in quick decision-making.
Below is an example where the sentiment index can give leading signals. We see a first sign of wekaness in the index as it drops below its moving average. Shortly after we see it dip below our median 50 level, another sign of weakeness. We see the SPX price action to take a hit following the sentiment index decrease.
Tickers Used and Their Impact on Sentiment
The impact of each ticker on sentiment can be bullish or bearish, depending on their behaviour:
Gold (USGD): Typically seen as a safe-haven asset, rising gold prices often indicate increased market fear or bearish sentiment. Conversely, falling gold prices can signal reduced fear and a shift towards bullish sentiment in riskier assets.
S&P 500 (SPX): A rising S&P 500 is usually a sign of bullish sentiment, reflecting confidence in economic growth and market stability. A decline, however, suggests bearish sentiment and a potential move towards risk aversion.
U.S. Dollar Index (DXY): A strengthening U.S. Dollar can be a sign of fear as investors seek safety in the dollar, which is bearish for risk assets. A weakening dollar, on the other hand, can signal bullish sentiment as capital flows into riskier assets.
Volatility Index (VIX): Known as the "fear gauge," a rising VIX indicates increased market fear and bearish sentiment. A falling VIX suggests a calm, bullish market environment.
Junk Bonds (JNK): Rising junk bond prices often reflect bullish sentiment as investors take on more risk for higher returns. Conversely, falling junk bond prices signal increased fear and bearish sentiment.
Long-Term Treasury Bonds (TLT): Higher prices for long-term treasuries usually indicate a flight to safety, reflecting bearish sentiment. Lower prices suggest a shift towards riskier assets, indicating bullish sentiment.
Financial Sector ETF (XLF): Strength in the financial sector is typically bullish, indicating confidence in economic conditions. Weakness in this sector can reflect bearish sentiment and concerns about financial stability.
Unemployment Rate (USUR): A rising unemployment rate is a bearish signal, indicating economic weakness. A declining unemployment rate is bullish, reflecting economic strength and job growth.
U.S. Interest Rates (USINTR, USIRYY): Higher interest rates can be bearish, as they increase borrowing costs and reduce spending. Lower rates are generally bullish, promoting economic growth and risk-taking.
How it Works
Sentiment Calculation: The US Sentiment Index combines data from multiple tickers, calculating sentiment by scaling the distance from their respective moving averages. Each asset's behaviour is interpreted within the context of market fear or greed, providing a refined sentiment reading that adjusts dynamically.
Market Strength Analysis: When the index is above 50 and also above its moving average, it indicates particularly strong or bullish market conditions, driven by greed. Conversely, when the index is below 50 and under its moving average, it signals bearish or weak market conditions, associated with fear.
Correlation and Pattern Detection: The indicator analyses correlations among the included assets to detect patterns that might signal potential market movements, giving traders a leading edge over simpler sentiment measures.
Adaptive Background Colouring: Utilises a colour gradient that dynamically adjusts based on sentiment values, highlighting extreme fear, neutral, and extreme greed levels directly on the chart.
Flexible Display Options: Offers settings to toggle the moving average plot and adjust its period, giving users the ability to tailor the indicator's sensitivity and display to their specific needs.
In this example below, we can see the Sentiment rise above the Moving Average (MA). Price action goes on to follow this, although there is an instance where it dips below the MA, it quickly rises back above again as a sign of strength.
Another way you can use this index is by simply using the MA, if its trending up, we know the macro sentiment is bullish.
Application
Data-Driven Insights: Offers traders a detailed, data-driven approach to sentiment analysis, incorporating a broad spectrum of market indicators to deliver actionable insights.
Pattern Recognition: Helps identify patterns and correlations that may lead to market reversals or continuations, providing a nuanced view that goes beyond simple sentiment gauges.
Enhanced Decision-Making: Equips traders with a robust tool to validate trading strategies and make informed decisions based on comprehensive sentiment analysis.
The US Sentiment Index by is an essential addition to the toolkit of any trader looking to navigate market complexities with precision and confidence. Its advanced features and data-driven approach offer unparalleled insights into market sentiment, setting it apart from conventional sentiment indicators.
Z-Score Probability IndicatorThis is the Z-Score Probability indicator. As many people like my original Z-Score indicator and have expressed more interest in the powers of the Z, I decided to make this indicator which shows additional powers of the Z-Score.
Z-Score is not only useful for measuring a ticker or any other variable’s distance from the mean, it is also useful to calculate general probability in a normal distribution set. Not only can it calculate probability in a dataset, but it can also calculate the variables within said dataset by using the Standard Deviation and the Mean of the dataset.
Using these 2 aspects of the Z-Score, you can, In principle, have an indicator that operates similar to Fibonacci retracement levels with the added bonus of being able to actually ascertain the realistic probability of said retracement.
Let’s take a look at an example:
This is a chart showing SPY on the daily timeframe. If we look at the current Z-Score level, we can see that SPY is pushing into the 2 to 3 Z-Score range. We can see two things from this:
1. We can see that a retracement to a Z-Score of 2 would correspond to a price of 425.26 based on the current dataset. And
2. We can see that the probability that SPY retraces to a Z-Score of 2 is around 0.9800 or 98%.
To take it one step further, we can look at the various other variables in the distribution. If we were to bet on SPY retracing back to -1 SDs, that would correspond to a price of around 397.15, with a probability of around 0.1600 or 16% (see image below):
Let’s say, we thought SPY would go to $440. Well, we can see that the probability SPY goes to 434.64 currently is pretty low. How do we know? Because the Z-Score table shows us the probability of values falling BELOW that Z-score level in the current distribution. So if we look at this example below:
We can see that 0.9998 or roughly 99% of values in the current SPY distribution will fall below 434.64. Thus, it may be unrealistic, at this point in time, to target said value.
So what is a Z-Score Table?
Well, I need to disclose/clarify that the Z-Score Table being displayed in this indicator does Z-Score probability a HUGE injustice. However, with the constraints what is realistic to fit into an indicator, I had to make it far more succinct. Let’s take a look at an actual Z-Score Table below:
Above is a look an the actual Z-Score table. How it works is you first identify you’re Z-Score and then find the corresponding value that relates to your score. The number displayed in the dataset represents the number of variables in the dataset/density distribution that fall BELOW that particular Z-score.
So, for example, if we have a Z-Score of -2.31, we can consult that table, go to the -2.3 then scroll across to the 0.01 to represent -2.31. We would see that this Z-Score corresponds to a 0.0104 probability zone (or essentially 1%) indicating that the majority of the variables in the distribution fall below that mean Z-score. In terms of tickers and stocks, that would mean it would theoretically be “overbought”.
So what does the indicator Z-Table tell us?
I have averaged out the data for the purposes of this indicator. However, you can also reference a manual Z-Table to get the exact probability for the current precise Z-Score. However, the reality is it doesn’t necessarily matter to be exact when it comes to tickers. The reason being, ticker’s are in constant flux, and by the time you identify that probability, the ticker will already be at a different level. So generalizations are okay in these circumstances, you just need to get the “gist” of where the distribution lies.
So how do I use the indicator?
Using the indicator is pretty straightforward. Once launched, you will see the current Z-Score of the ticker, the current levels based on the distribution and the summarized Z-Table.
The Z-Table will turn gray to indicate the zone the ticker is currently in. In this case, we can see that SPY currently is in the 2 SD Zone, meaning that 0.98 or 98% of the current dataset being shown falls below the price we are at:
When we launch the settings, we can see a few inputs.
Lookback Length: This determines the number of candles back we want to calculate the distribution for. It is defaulted to 75, but you can adjust it to whichever length you want.
SMA Length: The SMA is optional but defaults to on. If you want to see the smoothed trend of the Z-Score, this will do the trick. It does not need to be set to the same
length as the Z-Score lookback. Thus, if you want a more or less responsive SMA with, say, a larger dataset, then you can reduce the SMA length yourself.
Distribution Probability Fills: This simply colour codes the distribution zones / probability zones on the indicator.
Show Z-Table: This will display the summarized Z-Table.
Show SMA: As I indicated, the SMA is optional, you can toggle it on or off to see the overall Z-Score trend.
Concluding Remarks:
And that my friends is the Z-Score Probability Indicator.
I hope you all enjoy it and find it helpful. As always leave your comments, questions and suggestions below.
Safe trades to all and take care!
Limit Order + ATR Stop-Loss [TANHEF]This indicator enables interactive placement of limit or stop-limit orders with a trailing ATR stop-loss and optional profit target (with alerts). Refer to the images below for further clarification.
Why use a trailing stop-loss?
A trailing stop-loss serves as an exit strategy when price moves against you, while also allowing you to adjust the exit point further into profit when price moves favorably. The ATR (Average True Range), a reliable measure of volatility, acts as an effective risk management tool, functioning as a trailing stop-loss.
Indicator Explanation
Initial indicator placement: Select Long Limit or Long-Stop Limit order.
Change Entry Type: Switch between Long and Short within settings.
Modify entry price: Drag circle, adjust in settings, or re-add indicator to chart.
Optional Profit Target: Use Risk/Reward ratio or specify price.
Entry anticipation: Estimated ATR stop-loss and profit target as blue circles (fluctuates with volatility changes).
Entry triggered: Actual ATR stop-loss and profit target plotted.
Exit conditions: Stop-loss or profit target hit, exit entry.
Update Frequency: Continuously, Bar Open, or Bar Open on entry then continuously.
ATR Overlap: no entry occurs if the ATR overlaps with price (stop-loss 'hit' already on entry bar)
Table: Displays input settings selected.
Show Only On Ticker: Ability to hide indicator on other tickers.

Leveraged Share Conversion IndicatorHello everyone,
Releasing my leveraged share conversion indicator.
I noticed that the option traders have all the fun and resources but the share traders don't really have many resources in terms of adjusting or profits on leveraged and inverse shares. So, I decided to change that this this indicator!
What it does:
In a nut shell, the calculator converts one share to the price of another through the use of a regression based analysis.
There are multiple pre-stored libraries available in the indicator, including IWM, SPY, BTC and QQQ.
However, if the ticker you want to convert is not in one of the pre-defined libraries, you can select "Use Alternative Ticker" and indicate the stock you wish to convert.
Using Libraries:
If the conversion you want is available in one of the libraries, simply select the conversion you would like. For example, if you want to convert SPY to SPXU, select that conversion. The indicator will then launch up the conversion results which it will display in a dashboard to the right and will also display the plotted conversion on a chart (see imagine below:
In the dashboard, the indicator will show you:
a) The conversion result: This is the most likely price based on the analysis
b) The standard error: This is the degree of error within the conversion. This is the basis of the upper and lower bands. In statistics, we can add and subtract the standard error from the likely result to get the "Upper" and "Lower" Confidence levels of assessment. This is just a fancy way of saying the range in which our predicted result will fall. So, for example, in the image above it shows you the price of SPXU is assessed to be around 16$ based on SPY's price. The standard error range is 15-17. This means that, the majority of the time, based on this SPY close price, SPXU should fall between 15-17$ with the most likely result being the 16$ range.
Why is there error?
Because leveraged shares have an inherent decay in them. The degree of decay can be captured utilizing the standard error. So at any given time, the small changes in price fluctuations caused by the fact that the share is leveraged can be assessed and displayed using standard error measurements.
c) The current correlation: This is important! Because if the stocks are not strongly correlated, it tells you there is a problem. In general, a perfect correlation is 1 or -1 (perfectly negative correlation or inverse correlation) and a bad correlation is anything under 0.5 or -0.5. So, for an INVERSE leveraged share, you would expect the correlation to read a negative value. Ideally -1. Because the inverse share is doing the opposite of the underlying (if the underlying goes up, the inverse goes down and vice versa). For a non-inverse leveraged share, the correlation should read a positive value. As the underlying goes up, so too does the leveraged.
Manual Conversion using Library:
If you are using a pre-defined library but want to convert a manual close price, simply select "Enable manual conversion" at the bottom of the settings and then type in the manual close price. If you are converting SPY to SPXU, type in the manual close price of SPY to get the result in SPXU and vice versa.
Using an Alternative Ticker:
If the ticker you want is not available in a pre-defined library (i.e. UDOW, BOIL, APPU, TSLL, etc.), simply select "Use Alternative Ticker" in the settings menu. When you select this, make sure your chart is set to the dominant chart. The "Dominant chart" is the chart of the underlying. So, if you want TSLA to TSLL, be sure you have the TSLA chart open and then set your Alternative Ticker to TSLL or TSLQ.
The process of using an Alternative Ticker remains the same. If you wish to enter a manual close price, simply select "Enable Manual Conversion".
Special Considerations:
The indicator uses 1 hour candles. Thus, please leave your dominant chart set on the 1 hour time frame to avoid confusing the indicator.
The lookback period of the manual conversion is 10, 1 hour candles. As such, the results should not be used to make longer term predictions (i.e. anything over 6 months is pushing the capabilities of a manual conversion but fair game for the pre-defined library conversions which use more longer-term data).
You can technically use the indicator to make assessments between 2 separate equities. For example, the relationship between QQQ and ARKK, SPY and DIA, IWM and SPY, etc. If there is a good enough correlation, you can use it to make predictions of the opposing ticker. For example, if DIA goes to 340, what would SPY likely do? And vice versa.
As always, I have prepared a tutorial and getting started video for your reference:
As always, let me know your questions and requests/recommendations for the indicator below. This indicator is my final reference indicator in my 3 part reference indicator release. I will be going back over the feedback to make improvements based on the suggestions I have received. So please feel free to leave any suggestions here and I will take them into consideration for improvement!
Thank you for checking this out and as always, safe trades!
GLD GC Price Converter Its primary function is to fetch the prices of the Gold ETF (ticker: GLD) and Gold Futures (ticker: GC1!) and then project significant price levels from one or both of these assets onto the chart of whatever instrument you are currently viewing.
Core Functionality & Features
Dual Asset Tracking: The script simultaneously tracks the prices of GLD and Gold Futures (GC).
Dynamic Price Level Projection: The script's main feature is its ability to calculate and draw horizontal price levels. It determines a "base price" (e.g., the nearest $100 level for GC) and then draws lines at specified increments above and below it. The key is that these levels are projected onto the current chart's price scale.
On-Chart Information Display:
Price Table: A customizable table can be displayed in any corner of the chart, showing the current prices of GLD and GC. It can also show the daily percentage change for GC, colored green for positive changes and red for negative ones.
Last Price Label: It can show a label next to the most recent price bar that displays the current prices of both GLD and GC.
Extensive Customization: The user has significant control over the indicator's appearance and behavior through the settings panel.
This includes:
Toggling the display for GLD and GC levels independently.
Adjusting the multiplier for the price levels (e.g., show levels every $100 or $50 for GC).
Changing the colors, line styles (solid, dashed, dotted), and horizontal offset for the labels.
Defining the number of price levels to display.
Controlling the text size for labels and the table.
Choosing whether the script updates on every tick or only once per candle close for better performance.
