ATR Bands (Keltner Channel), Wick and SRSI Signals [MW]Introduction
This indicator uses a novel combination of ATR Bands, candle wicks crossing the ATR upper and lower bands, and baseline, and combines them with the Stochastic SRSI oscillator to provide early BUY and SELL signals in uptrends, downtrends, and in ranging price conditions.
How it’s unique
People generally understand Bollinger Bands and Keltner Channels. Buy at the bottom band, sell at the top band. However, because the bands themselves are not static, impulsive moves can render them useless. People also generally understand wicks. Candles with large wicks can represent a change in pattern, or volatile price movement. Combining those two to determine if price is reaching a pivot point is relatively novel. When Stochastic RSI (SRSI) filtering is also added, it becomes a genuinely unique combination that can be used to determine trade entries and exits.
What’s the benefit
The benefit of the indicator is that it can help potentially identify pivots WHEN THEY HAPPEN, and with potentially minimal retracement, depending on the trader’s time window. Many indicators wait for a trend to be established, or wait for a breakout to occur, or have to wait for some form of confirmation. In the interpretation used by this indicator, bands, wicks, and SRSI cycles provide both the signal and confirmation.
It takes into account 3 elements:
Price approaching the upper or lower band or the baseline - MEANING: Price is becoming extended based on calculations that use the candle trading range.
A candle wick of a defined proportion (e.g. wick is 1/2 the size of a full candle OR candle body) crosses a band or baseline, but the body does not cross the band or baseline - MEANING: Buyers and sellers are both very active.
The Stochastic RSI reading is above 80 for SELL signals and below 20 for BUY signals - MEANING: Additional confirmation that price is becoming extended based on the current cyclic price pattern.
How to Use
SIGNALS
Buy Signals - Green(ish):
B Signal - Potential pivot up from the lower band when using the preferred multiplier
B1 Signal - Potential pivot up from the lower band when using phi * multiplier
B2 Signal - Potential pivot up from the lower band when using 1/2 * multiplier
B3 Signal - Potential pivot up from baseline
Sell Signals - Red(ish):
S Signal - Potential pivot down from the upper band when using the preferred multiplier
S1 Signal - Potential pivot down from the upper band when using
S2 Signal - Potential pivot down from the upper band when using 1/2 * multiplier
S3 Signal - Potential pivot down from the baseline
DISCUSSION
During an uptrend or downtrend, signals from the baseline can help traders identify areas where they may enter the trending move with the least amount of drawdown. In both cases, entry points can occur with baseline signals in the direction of the trend.
For example, in an uptrend (when the price is forming higher highs and higher lows, or when the baseline is rising), price tends to oscillate between the upper band and baseline. In this case, the baseline BUY signal (B3) can show an entry point.
In a downtrend (when the price is forming lower highs and lower lows, or when the baseline is falling), price tends to oscillate between the baseline and the lower band. In this case, the baseline SELL signal (S3) can show an entry point.
During consolidation, when price is ranging, price tends to oscillate between the upper and lower bands, while crossing through the baseline unperturbed. Here, entry points can occur at the upper and lower bands.
When all conditions are met at the lower band during consolidation, a BUY signal (B), can occur. This signal may also occur prior to a break out of consolidation to the upside.
When all conditions are met at the upper band during consolidation, a SELL signal (S), can occur. This signal may also occur prior to a break out of consolidation to the downside.
Additional B1, B2, and S1, and S2 signals can be displayed that use the bands based on a multiplier that is half that of the primary one, and phi (0.618) times the primary multiplier as a way to quickly check for signals occurring along different, but related, bands.
Calculations
ATR Bands, or Keltner Channels, are a technical analysis tool that are used to measure market volatility and identify overbought or oversold conditions in the trading of financial instruments, such as stocks, bonds, commodities, and currencies. ATR Bands consist of three lines plotted on a price chart:
Middle Band, Basis, or Baseline: This is typically a simple moving average (SMA) of the closing prices over a certain period. It represents the intermediate-term trend of the asset's price.
Upper Band: This is calculated by adding a certain number of ATRs to the middle band (SMA). The upper band adjusts itself with the increase in volatility.
Lower Band: This is calculated by subtracting the same number of ATRs from the middle band (SMA). Like the upper band, the lower band adjusts to changes in volatility.
The candle wick signals occur if the wick is at the specified ratio compared to either the entire candle or the candle body. The upper band, lower band, and baseline signals happen if the wick is the specified ratio of the total candle size. For the major signals for upper and lower bands, these occur when the wick extends outside of the bands while closing a candle inside of the bands. For the baseline signals, they occur if a wick crosses a baseline but closes on the other side.

Other Usage Notes and Limitations
To understand future price movement, this indicator assumes that 3 things must be known:
Evidence of a change of market structure. This can be demonstrated by increased volatility, consolidation, volume spikes (which can be tracked with the MW Volume Impulse Indicator) or, in the case of this indicator, candle wicks.
The potential cause of the change. It could be a VWAP line (which can be tracked with the Multi VWAP , and Multi VWAP from Gaps indicators), an event, an important support or resistance level, a key moving average, or many other things. This indicator assumes the ATR bands can be a cause.
The current position in the price cycle. Oscillators like the RSI, and MACD, are typical measures of price oscillation (other oscillators like the Price and Volume Stochastic Divergence indicator can also be useful). This indicator uses the Stochastic RSI oscillator to determine overbought and oversold conditions.
When evidence of the change appears, and the potential cause of the change is identified, and the price oscillation is at a favorable position for the desired trading direction, this indicator will generate a signal.
ATR Bands (or Keltner Channels) are used to determine when price might “revert to the mean”. Crossing, or being near the upper or lower band, can indicate an overbought or oversold condition, which could lead to a price reversal. By tracking the behavior of candle wicks during these events, we can see how active the battle is between buyers and sellers.
If the top of a wick is large, it may indicate that sellers are aggressively attempting to bring the price down. Conversely, if the bottom wick is large, it can indicate that buyers are actively trying to counter the price action caused by selling pressure.
When this wicking action occurs at times when price is not near the upper band, lower band, or baseline, it could indicate the presence of an important level. That could mean a nearby VWAP line, a supply or demand zone, a round price number, or a number of other factors. In any case, this wick may be the first indication of a price reversal.
Shorter baseline periods may be better for short period trading like scalping or day trading, while longer period baselines can show signals that are better suited to swing trading, or longer term investing.
It's important for traders to be aware of the limitations of any indicator and to use them as part of a broader, well-rounded trading strategy that includes risk management, fundamental analysis, and other tools that can help with reducing false signals, determining trend direction, and providing additional confirmation for a trade decision. Diversifying strategies and not relying solely on one type of indicator or analysis can help mitigate some of these risks.
The TradingView platform allows a maximum of 500 labels per chart. This means that if your settings allow for a lot of signals, labels for earlier ones may not appear if the total number of labels exceeds 500 for the chart.
Average True Range (ATR)
Median Supertrend [BackQuant]Median Supertrend Concept by BackQuant ©
This was created since the normal supertrend is noisy, in the attempts to remove that and still get a good signal we decided to use a special median calculation as the source to a modified supertrend. This allows us to reduce noise, and make the supertrend adaptive to volatility. The full description and reasoning, including definitions and backtests are as follows:
1. Definition of Median
The median is a statistical measure that identifies the middle value in a given set of numbers when those numbers are arranged in either ascending or descending order. If the dataset has an even number of observations, the median is calculated as the average of the two middle numbers. This measure is particularly useful in understanding the central tendency of data, especially in cases where the dataset may contain outliers that could skew the mean. For example, in a dataset representing the earnings of families, the median provides a more accurate reflection of the typical income than the mean if the dataset includes extreme values.
2. Understanding Supertrend and Its Use Case
Supertrend is a popular trend-following indicator used in technical analysis. It is computed using the Average True Range (ATR) to capture volatility, combined with a moving average. The indicator provides clear signals to traders about bullish or bearish trends, indicating potential entry and exit points. Traders often use Supertrend in various market conditions to enhance their trading strategies, leveraging its simplicity and effectiveness in identifying ongoing trends and reversals.
3. Rationale Behind Combining Median with Supertrend
The integration of the median into the Supertrend indicator seeks to mitigate the impact of outliers and sudden market spikes that can affect trend analysis. By using the median value of price data for trend determination, the Median Supertrend aims to offer a more stable and reliable indicator that reflects the underlying market conditions more accurately than traditional methods. This modification is intended to improve the timing of trend detection and the precision of entry and exit signals.
4. Key Differences and Benefits
Enhanced Stability: The use of median values reduces sensitivity to extreme price movements, offering a smoother trend line that can lead to more reliable trading signals.
Adaptive Sensitivity: Users can adjust the indicator's sensitivity to align with different trading styles and market conditions through customizable parameters like the ATR multiplier and lookback period.
Explicit Trading Signals: The indicator simplifies the trading process by providing clear, actionable long and short signals based on trend reversals, aiding in decision-making.
Customizability: Options to use Heikin Ashi candles, paint candles based on the trend, and toggle signal visibility allow traders to personalize the indicator to their preference.
5. User Inputs
The Median Supertrend indicator includes several user inputs to tailor its operation:
Use HA Candles as Source?: Option to base calculations on Heikin Ashi candles for smoother price data.
Paint Candles According to Trend?: Visual aid that colors candles based on the current trend direction, enhancing chart readability.
ATR Period and Multiplier: Parameters to adjust the sensitivity of the trend detection, allowing users to fine-tune the indicator.
Adaptive Lookback Period: Defines the period for the median calculation, offering flexibility in trend assessment.
Show Long and Short Signals: Enables traders to visualize entry signals directly on the chart.
6. Application in Trading
Traders can incorporate the Median Supertrend into their strategies as a standalone indicator for trend following or as a filter in a multi-indicator system. It is particularly useful in markets known for having outliers or sudden price jumps, as the median-based calculation provides a grounded trend analysis. This indicator can be applied across various timeframes and asset classes, making it a versatile tool for day traders, swing traders, and long-term investors alike.
7. Summary and Empirical Soundness
The integration of median values into the Supertrend indicator represents an innovative approach to trend analysis, addressing some of the volatility and outlier-related challenges inherent in traditional methods. This combination is empirically sound as it leans on the statistical robustness of the median to offer a more stable and reliable trend determination mechanism.

Shadow Range IndexShadow Range Index (SRI) introduces a new concept to calculate momentum, shadow range.
What is range?
Traditionally, True Range (TR) is the current high minus the current low of each bar in the timeframe. This is often used successfully on its own in indicators, or as a moving average in ATR (Average True Range).
To calculate range, SRI uses an innovative calculation of current bar range that also considers the previous bar. It calculates the difference between its maximum upward and maximum downward values over the number of bars the user chooses (by adjusting ‘Range lookback’).
What is shadow range?
True Range (TR) uses elements in its calculation (the highs and lows of the bar) that are also visible on the chart bars. Shadow range does not, though.
SRI calculates shadow range in a similar formula to range, except that this time it works out the difference between the minimum upward and minimum downward movement. This movement is by its nature less than the maximums, hence a shadow of it. Although more subtle, shadow range is significant, because it is quantifiable, and goes in one direction or another.
Finally, SRI smoothes shadow range and plots it as a histogram, and also smoothes and plots range as a signal line. Useful up and down triangles show trend changes, which optionally colour the chart bars.
Here’s an example of a long trade setup:
In summary, Shadow Range Index identifies and traces maximum and minimum bar range movement both up and down, and plots them as centred oscillators. The dynamics between the two can provide insights into the chart's performance and future direction.

Ranges With Targets [ChartPrime]The Ranges With Targets indicator is a tool designed to assist traders in identifying potential trading opportunities on a chart derived from breakout trading. It dynamically outlines ranges with boxes in real-time, providing a visual representation of price movements. When a breakout occurs from a range, the indicator will begin coloring the candles. A green candle signals a long breakout, suggesting a potential upward movement, while a red candle indicates a short breakout, suggesting a potential downward movement. Grey candles indicate periods with no active trade. Ranges are derived from daily changes in price action.
This indicator builds upon the common breakout theory in trading whereby when price breaks out of a range; it may indicate continuation in a trend.
Additionally, users have the ability to customize their risk-reward settings through a multiplier referred to as the Target input. This allows traders to set their Take Profit (TP) and Stop Loss (SL) levels according to their specific risk tolerance and trading strategy.
Furthermore, the indicator offers an optional stop loss setting that can automatically exit losing trades, providing an additional layer of risk management for users who choose to utilize this feature.
A dashboard is provided in the top right showing the statistics and performance of the indicator; winning trades; losing trades, gross profit and loss and PNL. This can be useful when analyzing the success of breakout trading on a particular asset or timeframe.
ATR Bands with Optional Risk/Reward Colors█ OVERVIEW
This indicator projects ATR bands and, optionally, colors them based on a risk/reward advantage for those who trade breakouts/breakdowns using moving averages as partial or full exit points.
█ DEFINITIONS
► True Range
The True Range is a measure of the volatility of a financial asset and is defined as the maximum difference among one of the following values:
- The high of the current period minus the low of the current period.
- The absolute value of the high of the current period minus the closing price of the previous period.
- The absolute value of the low of the current period minus the closing price of the previous period.
► Average True Range
The Average True Range was developed by J. Welles Wilder Jr. and was introduced in his 1978 book titled "New Concepts in Technical Trading Systems". It is calculated as an average of the true range values over a certain number of periods (usually 14) and is commonly used to measure volatility and set stop-loss and profit targets (1).
For example, if you are looking at a daily chart and you want to calculate the 14-day ATR, you would take the True Range of the previous 14 days, calculate their average, and this would be the ATR for that day. The process is then repeated every day to obtain a series of ATR values over time.
The ATR can be smoothed using different methods, such as the Simple Moving Average (SMA), the Exponential Moving Average (EMA), or others, depending on the user's preferences or analysis needs.
► ATR Bands
The ATR bands are created by adding or subtracting the ATR from a reference point (usually the closing price). This process generates bands around the central point that expand and contract based on market volatility, allowing traders to assess dynamic support and resistance levels and to adapt their trading strategies to current market conditions.
█ INDICATOR
► ATR Bands
The indicator provides all the essential parameters for calculating the ATR: period length, time frame, smoothing method, and multiplier.
It is then possible to choose the reference point from which to create the bands. The most commonly used reference points are Open, High, Low, and Close, but you can also choose the commonly used candle averages: HL2, HLC3, HLCC4, OHLC4. Among these, there is also a less common "OC2", which represents the average of the candle body. Additionally, two parameters have been specifically created for this indicator: Open/Close and High/Low.
With the "Open/Close" parameter, the upper band is calculated from the higher value between Open and Close, while the lower one is calculated from the lower value between Open and Close. In the case of bullish candles, therefore, the Close value is taken as the starting point for the upper band and the Open value for the lower one; conversely, in bearish candles, the Open value is used for the upper band and the Close value for the lower band. This setting can be useful for precautionally generating broader bands when trading with candlesticks like hammers or inverted hammers.
The "High/Low" parameter calculates the upper band starting from the High and the lower band starting from the Low. Among all the available options, this one allows drawing the widest bands.
Other possible options to improve the drawing of ATR bands, aligning them with the price action, are:
• Doji Smoothing: When the current candle is a doji (having the same Open and Close price), the bands assume the values they had on the previous candle. This can be useful to avoid steep fluctuations of the bands themselves.
• Extend to High/Low: Extends the bands to the High or Low values when they exceed the value of the band.
• Round Last Cent: Expands the upper band by one cent if the price ends with x.x9, and the lower band if the price ends with x.x1. This function only works when the asset's tick is 0.01.
► Risk/Reward Advantage
The indicator optionally colors the ATR bands after setting a breakpoint, one or two risk/reward ratios, and a series of moving averages. This function allows you to know in advance whether entering a trade can provide an advantage over the risk. The band is colored when the ratio between the distance from the break point to the band and the distance from the break point to the first available moving average reaches at least the set ratio value. It is possible to set two colorings, one for a minimum risk/reward ratio and one for an optimal risk/reward ratio.
The break point can be chosen between High/Low (High in case of breakout, Low in case of breakdown) or Open/Close (on breakouts, Close with bullish candles or Open with bearish candles; on breakdowns, Close with bearish candles or Open with bullish candles).
It is possible to choose up to 10 moving averages of various types, including the VWAP with the Anchor Period (2).
Depending on the "Price to MA" setting, the bands can be individually or simultaneously colored.
By selecting "Single Direction," the risk/reward calculation is performed only when all moving averages are above or below the break point, resulting in only one band being colored at a time. For this reason, when the break point is in between the moving averages, the calculation is not executed. This setting can be useful for strategies involving price movement from a level towards a series of specific moving averages (for example, in reversals starting from a certain level towards the VWAP with possible partial take profits on some previous moving averages, or simply in trend following towards one or more moving averages).
Choosing "Both Directions" the risk/reward ratio is calculated based on the first available moving averages both above and below the price. This setting is useful for those who operate in range bound markets or simply take advantage of movements between moving averages.
█ NOTE
This script may not be suitable for scalping strategies that require immediate entries due to the inability to know the ATR of a candle in advance until its closure. Once the candle is closed, you should have time to place a stop or stop-limit order, so your strategy should not anticipate an immediate start with the next candle. Even more conveniently, if your strategy involves an entry on a pullback, you can place a limit order at the breakout level.

[Spinn] LevelsThis is one of the best and most useful indicators I have ever created. It plots support and resistance levels at pivot points. The purpose of this indicator is to save the trader’s time on drawing levels and automate this routine process.
Support and resistance levels are a cornerstone of trading. Every seasoned trader can plot them on a chart, underscoring their significance for making trading decisions—they're visible to all, indicating areas dense with orders on both sides.
Despite the plethora of level indicators available, many of which are free, I found none that were convenient and fulfilled their intended purpose. Here are the key features and advantages of this indicator, setting it apart from others and deemed critically important:
Only Key Levels *
The main challenge in creating a levels indicator is ensuring only significant, key levels are displayed, avoiding clutter. This indicator achieves this by selectively filtering important levels from the noise and visually distinguishing confirmed levels (solid lines for tested or price-near levels) from unconfirmed (dashed lines for less important ones).
Visible Chart Fragment Only
It displays levels for only the visible part of the chart, avoiding an overload of lines across the entire history.
False Breakouts
Lines persist until a level is breached. Minor false breakouts are ignored.
Target Timeframe
Occasionally, viewing levels from a higher timeframe is necessary. This indicator can do so, highlighting target timeframe levels with thicker lines. It allows viewing levels from both the current and target timeframes simultaneously or just the target timeframe.
By Bodies or By Shadows
The indicator can draw support and resistance levels by both candle bodies and shadows, accommodating strategies based on breaking or bouncing off levels.
Level Price Tags
To avoid searching for the price at which a level is drawn, price tags are immediately visible near all currently relevant levels, simplifying and speeding up routine work.
Alerts
Setting alerts for approaching a level is a key feature. Haven't grasped its awesomeness? Here's why it's a game-changer: Set alerts on your favorite coins for each working timeframe. When the price approaches a level, you'll get a signal. Just open the chart to assess the situation and make a trading decision. This way, you don't waste time flipping through charts, searching for trading setups. Focus on your tasks, and let the indicator signal trading opportunities.
Three types of alerts are available: approaching a support level, a resistance level, or any level.
* Important (key) levels are the levels where the price reverses, or stops and “stomps around” for some time. This indicates that these places are an area of interest for a major seller or buyer. This effect is enhanced since such levels are visible to all market players, which means that even more traders can make trading decisions in these zones.
Three additional features enhance usability:
ATR in the Status Line: The indicator's status line displays four numbers - average price movement in points and percentages for both the current and target timeframes, invaluable for deciding stop and take-profit sizes if you base them on ATR. It works on historical data too—just hover over the desired chart section. Don't forget to enable indicator values display in its status line (right-click the indicator name to access the menu).
Visualize ATR: You can display the average price movement as a dotted line - one ATR up and one down from the current price. This visually indicates how close the price is to a level — whether within its average movement range. If you've enabled levels display for the higher timeframe, the average movement for it is also shown.
You can enable the mode for viewing historical levels. In this mode, when a level appears close to the historical one, a new level will not be drawn, but the historical level will continue. Use this option with caution, as the script will "pull out" too many old levels.
If you're interested in testing how effective this indicator is, send me a private message for free trial access. I believe it's a "must-have" for both beginners and experienced traders.

Это один из самых лучших и полезных индикаторов, которые я когда-либо создавал. Он строит уровни поддержки и сопротивления в точках разворота. Задача данного индикатора - сэкономить время трейдера на прорисовку уровней и автоматизировать этот рутинный процесс.
Уровни поддержки и сопротивления - это одна из основ трейдинга. Каждый опытный трейдер может нарисовать их на графике, и в этом и заключается их важность для принятия торговых решений - их все видят, и все знают, что в зоне этих уровней располагается много ордеров в обе стороны.
Существует огромное количество индикаторов уровней, многие из которых бесплатны. Однако я не нашел ни одного индикатора, который бы был удобен в работе и делал бы именно то, ради чего он и нужен. Вот ключевые особенности и преимущества данного индикатора, которые отличают его от других индикаторов уровней. Я считаю их критически важными:
Только ключевые уровни *
Одна из главных проблем при написании индикатора уровней - как сделать так, чтобы на графике былы отображены только важные, ключевые уровни, и не было ничего лишнего. Данный индикатор делает это двумя способами. Во-первых, он не перегружает график лишними линиями, алгоритм умеет отбирать важные и отсекать шум. А во-вторых, подтвержденные уровни (если был тест или если цена подходила близко к уровню) визуально видны - они рисуются сплошной линией. Неподтвержденные (а значит, менее важные) уровни рисуются пунктиром.
Только видимый фрагмент графика
Показаны уровни лишь для видимого участка графика, а не огромное число линий одновременно для всей истории графика
Ложные пробои
Линии рисуются до того момента, пока уровень не будет пробит. Если происходят небольшие ложные пробои, они игнорируются.
Целевой таймфрейм
Иногда возникает необходимость увидеть уровни со старшего таймфрейма. Индикатор умеет это делать, при этом уровни целевого таймфрейма выделяются более толстыми линиями. Причем вы можете видеть как одновременно уровни с двух таймфреймов - с текущего и целевого, так и только с целевого.
По телам и по теням
Индикатор умеет рисовать уровни поддержки и сопротивления как по теням, так и по телам свечей. То есть, вы сможете применять его как для стратегии работы на пробой уровня, так и для стратегии работы на отбой от уровня.
На какой цене стоит уровень
Чтобы не искать цену, на которой нарисован уровень, вы сразу можете видеть метки с ценами возле всех актуальных на данный момент уровней. Это простая, но очень полезная функция, которая сильно облегчает и ускоряет рутинную работу.
Оповещения
Индикатор позволяет расставить оповещения о приближении к уровню. Это одна из ключевых особенностей индикаторы. Вы еще не поняли, насколько это крутая фишка? Объясняю. Добавляете оповещения на ваших любимых монетах на каждом из рабочих таймфреймов. Когда цена приблизится к одному из уровней, вы получите сигнал об этом. Достаточно будет открыть график и оценить ситуацию, чтобы принять торговое решение. Таким образом, вам не надо тратить время на перебор графиков и проводить часы в поисках торговой ситуации. Занимайтесь своими делами, а сигнал о торговой ситуации вам подаст индикатор.
Для облегчения работы доступны три вида оповещений - цена приближается к уровню поддержки, цена приближается к уровню сопротивления, цена приближается к одному из уровней.
* Важными (ключевыми) уровнями являются уровни, где цена разворачивается, либо останавливается и «топчется» некоторое время. Это свидетельствует о том, что эти места являются зоной интереса крупного продавца или покупателя. Этот эффект усиливается, так как такие уровни видны всем игрокам рынка, а, значит, еще больше трейдеров могут принимать торговые решения в этих зонах.
Я добавил три полезные фишки для удобства работы.
ATR в статусной строке. В статусной строке индикатора отображаются 4 числа - средний ход цены пунктах и в процентах для текущего ТФ, и то же самое для целевого ТФ. Очень удобно для принятия решения о размерах тейка и стопа, если вы привязываете их к ATR. Работает и на истории - просто подведите мышку к нужному участку графика. Не забудьте включить показ значений индикатора в его статусной строке (клик правой кнопкой мышки на названии индикатора вызовет нужное меню).
Можно отобразить средний ход цены пунктирной линией - один ATR вверх от текущей цены, и один ATR вниз. Таким образом, вы визуально сможете определить, насколько близко мы подошли к уровню - находится ли цена от уровня в пределах ее среднего хода, или нет. Если вы включили опцию отображения уровней для старшего ТФ, то будет показан средний ход и для него.
Можно включить режим просмотра исторических уровней. В этом режиме при появлении уровня, близкого к историческому, новый уровень рисоваться не будет, а будет продолжаться исторический уровень. Используйте эту опцию с осторожностью, так как скрипт "вытащит" слишком много старых уровней.
Если вы хотите попробовать, насколько хорош данный индикатор, напишите мне личное сообщение - я предоставлю вам бесплатный тестовый доступ. Я же считаю, что он относится к категории «маст хев» - как для новичков, так и для опытных трейдеров.
ATR Grid Levels [By MUQWISHI]▋ INTRODUCTION :
The “ATR Levels” produces a sequence of horizontal line levels above and below the Center Line (reference level). They are sized based on the instrument's volatility, representing the average historical price movement on a selected higher timeframe using the average true range (ATR) indicator.
_______________________
▋ OVERVIEW:
_______________________
▋ IMPLEMENTATION:
The indicator starts by drawing a Center Line that is selected by the user from a variety of common levels. Then, it draws a sequence of horizontal lines above and below the Center Line, which are sized based on the most confirmed average true range (ATR) at the selected higher timeframe.
In the top right corner of the chart, there is a table displaying both the selected ATR (in the right cell) and the ATR of the current bar (in the left cell). This feature enables users to compare these two values. It's important to note that the ATR of the current bar may not be confirmed yet, as the market is still active.

Scalper's Volatility Filter [QuantraSystems]Scalpers Volatility Filter
Introduction
The 𝒮𝒸𝒶𝓁𝓅𝑒𝓇'𝓈 𝒱𝑜𝓁𝒶𝓉𝒾𝓁𝒾𝓉𝓎 𝐹𝒾𝓁𝓉𝑒𝓇 (𝒮𝒱𝐹) is a sophisticated technical indicator, designed to increase the profitability of lower timeframe trading.
Due to the inherent decrease in the signal-to-noise ratio when trading on lower timeframes, it is critical to develop analysis methods to inform traders of the optimal market periods to trade - and more importantly, when you shouldn’t trade.
The 𝒮𝒱𝐹 uses a blend of volatility and momentum measurements, to signal the dominant market condition - trending or ranging.
Legend
The 𝒮𝒱𝐹 consists of a signal line that moves above and below a central zero line, serving as the indication of market regime.
When the signal line is positioned above zero, it indicates a period of elevated volatility. These periods are more profitable for trading, as an asset will experience larger price swings, and by design, trend-following indicators will give less false signals.
Conversely, when the signal line moves below zero, a low volatility or mean-reverting market regime dominates.
This distinction is critical for traders in order to align strategies with the prevailing market behaviors - leveraging trends in volatile markets and exercising caution or implementing mean-reversion systems in periods of lower volatility.
Case Study
Here we can see the indicator's unique edge in action.
Out of the four potential long entries seen on the chart - displayed via bar coloring, two would result in losses.
However, with the power of the 𝒮𝒱𝐹 a trader can effectively filter false signals by only entering momentum-trades when the signal line is above zero.
In this small sample of four trades, the 𝒮𝒱𝐹 increased the win rate from 50% to 100%
Methodology
The methodology behind the 𝒮𝒱𝐹 is based upon three components:
By calculating and contrasting two ATR’s, the immediate market momentum relative to the broader, established trend is calculated. The original method for this can be credited to the user @xinolia
A modified and smoothed ADX indicator is calculated to further assess the strength and sustainability of trends.
The ‘Linear Regression Dispersion’ measures price deviations from a fitted regression line, adding further confluence to the signals representation of market conditions.
Together, these components synthesize a robust, balanced view of market conditions, enabling traders to help align strategies with the prevailing market environment, in order to potentially increase expected value and win rates.
Truncated ATRThis program uses SMA and Truncated Mean to calculate ATR.
A truncated mean or trimmed mean is a statistical measure of central tendency, much like the mean and median. It involves the calculation of the mean after discarding given parts of a probability distribution or sample at the high and low end, and typically discarding an equal amount of both.
Heiken Ashi Algo v6The Heiken Ashi Algo Oscillator v6, introduces a refined approach to technical analysis applicable across various markets. Central to this algorithm is the integration of the Relative Strength Index #RSI, a staple indicator renowned for its effectiveness in measuring momentum.

Inflow / Outflow (accumulation and distribution) Ribbon
In trading we know liquidity means volume and volume is orders. This ribbon shows you when orders are entering, exiting, filling or flat in the market.
The Liquidity Ribbon is a visual representation of whats happening with accumulation and distribution in the market.
It acts as a dynamic area of support and resistance for the RSI (momentum).
Once the RSI breaks above or below the full area of the ribbon, you have an overturned short term market.
Breaking this area isn't easy because of the one sided thick line known as the PoC line or Point of Control Line.
This line changes between a rising and falling color to tell you what side of the market has the most resistance or support.
Custom HA candles
The common way for HA candles to be colors is green for bullish and red for bearish.
These candles color differently according to market dynamics vs how the current candle closes.
This is helpful to keep you from taking longs or shorts when the momentum just doesn't have the move.
How it all works together: Taking entries and failed breakouts.
In the image below (left to right) you can see the following take place:
Short Entry:
HA Candles push down through the ribbon breaking below its low side (Support Ribbon Broken)
Following this the RSI RANGE is broken to the down side.
This is a good setup for a short breakout
Retrace to false breakout:
After this price retraces and so does momentum.
HA Candles attempt to but fail to break through the top of the ribbon and push back down . This is a false breakout.
Bullish Divergence to Long Entry:
The Heiken Ashi Algo forms a bullish divergence and HA candles push back up into the ribbon. Without a change in candle structure the RSI breaks the top of the ribbon where the control line sits as well as breaking through the top of the RANGE area and
This is a promising setup for a long trade.
Rally Base Rally: (into secondary long trade)
As price is rising, it retraces until HA candles are within the RANGE. No candle closes or has a low below the RSI midline.
HA Candles are forming a consolidation. After consolidation the RSI breaks out the top of the ribbon and the top of the RANGE allowing a secondary long entry.

ATR Based Support and Resistance Zones [UAlgo]🔶 ATR Based Support and Resistance Indicator 🔶
The ATR Based Support and Resistance Indicator is a technical tool designed for TradingView users to analyze and visualize support and resistance levels based on the Average True Range (ATR) indicator. ATR is a widely used volatility indicator that measures the average trading range of an asset over a specified period. This indicator utilizes ATR values to dynamically calculate and display support and resistance zones on the price chart.
🔶 Indicator Settings
ATR Length: This setting allows users to specify the length of the period over which the ATR indicator is calculated. A longer period results in a smoother ATR value, providing a broader view of market volatility.
ATR Multiplier: The ATR multiplier enables users to adjust the sensitivity of the support and resistance zones. Increasing the multiplier widens the zones, while decreasing it narrows them, allowing traders to customize the indicator according to their trading preferences and market conditions.
🔶 Key Features
Trend Identification: The indicator identifies potential support and resistance zones based on the relationship between the ATR values and the price action. When the current ATR value exceeds a certain threshold determined by the ATR multiplier, it indicates a significant price movement, potentially signaling a trend reversal or continuation.
Impulse Detection: The indicator detects impulses in price movement by comparing the current ATR value with the previous value. An impulse is identified when the current ATR value is greater than or equal to the previous value, indicating a sudden surge in market volatility.
Bearish Impulse Example :
Bullish Impulse Example:
Color-Coded Impulses: Impulse candles are color-coded for easy visualization of bullish (green) and bearish (red) impulses. This feature helps traders quickly identify potential trading opportunities and market trends.
Wick Percentage Calculation: The indicator calculates the percentage of the wick length relative to the true range of each candle. Users can specify a threshold percentage, and when the wick percentage exceeds this threshold, it indicates a potential support or resistance zone.
Support and Resistance Zones: The indicator plots support and resistance zones based on the calculated wick percentage. These zones are visualized as rectangular boxes on the price chart, highlighting areas where price reversals or significant price movements are likely to occur.
Customizable Styling: Users can customize the styling of support and resistance zones, including line style, width, border color, and background color. This flexibility allows traders to adapt the indicator's visual appearance to their personal preferences and trading strategies.
🔶 Usage
Traders can utilize the ATR Based Support and Resistance Indicator in various ways :
Trend Direction Analysis: By observing the color-coded impulse candles, traders can identify the prevailing trend direction (bullish or bearish) based on the frequency and magnitude of impulses.
Entry and Exit Signals: Traders can use the detected support and resistance zones as potential entry and exit points for their trades. When price approaches these zones, it may indicate a trading opportunity or signal the need to adjust stop-loss or take-profit levels.
Confirmation Tool: The indicator serves as a confirmation tool for identifying potential reversal or continuation signals in conjunction with other technical indicators or trading strategies.
ATR Percentage ValuesThis indicator is created to give you the daily ATR 2% and 10% values for any product that you are looking at. The way the indicator is designed is to only show the most recent 2 and 10 percent values on any chart and will not show you any other number. If you are hovering over price that occurred in the past it will show zeros on the values. To get the right values, take your mouse off of the chart and it will show you the values.
The way this indicator is coded will give you the daily ATR numbers no matter what chart timeframe you are currently looking at. The idea is to save time and make sure you do not make a mistake getting the wrong value.

ATR Divergences [UAlgo]Divergence is a concept in financial markets that highlights inconsistencies between the price of an asset and a given indicator. This script focuses on identifying divergences using the Average True Range (ATR). Divergence occurs when there is a disparity between the direction of the price and the oscillator, providing valuable insights for traders anticipating potential trend reversals.
This script employs pivot points (with using High-Low values of the candles) to identify potential divergences between the oscillator (ATR) and price movements. Here's how each type of divergence is determined:
Key Features:
Regular Bullish Divergence:
Oscillator registers a higher low.
Price records a lower low.
Indicative of potential upward reversal.
Hidden Bullish Divergence:
Oscillator indicates a lower low.
Price exhibits a higher low.
Signals a concealed bullish continuation pattern.
Regular Bearish Divergence:
Oscillator shows a lower high.
Price marks a higher high.
Suggests a possible downward reversal.
Hidden Bearish Divergence:
Oscillator reflects a higher high.
Price displays a lower high.
Indicates a hidden bearish continuation pattern.
Usage and Customization:
ATR Length: Adjustable parameter for customizing the Average True Range calculation period.
Plot Options: Choose to display Regular Bullish, Hidden Bullish, Regular Bearish, and/or Hidden Bearish divergences.
Wait for Candle Close: Option to wait for candle closure before plotting signals.
How to Interpret:
Regular divergences may indicate potential trend reversals, while hidden divergences suggest a continuation of the current trend. Traders can leverage these signals to make informed decisions in their trading strategies.
Feel free to customize the parameters based on your trading preferences. Happy Trading!
RVOL/ExpVol/ATR/ExpRGives 4 values:
- Relative Volume: needs the first 5M candle to have closed to give a good value then updates every 5 minute throughout the day. Compares to the historical Volume on the last 30 days on the SAME time period from Open.
Most indicators compare to the average volume on any 30min period, thus highly overestimating the RVOL at Open when Volume is higher.
- Expected Volume on the day in Million of shares given the RVOL.
- Average True Range on the last 14 days
- Expected Range on the day given the ATR & the RVOL.
Warning: Expected Range is just an estimation from data I gathered but the Day's range can be way higher or lower than that. Also if RVOL > 3 then the estimation works less & less.
As this was originally coded just for me I don't ask user input for things like the lookback period or the refresh period. You have to make a copy & go in the code and modify it if you want to change it.
Also the data displayed is given for the candle on which your cursor is !
Works best on 5-minute and above chart timeframes.

ATR TrendTL;DR - An average true range (ATR) based trend
ATR trend uses a (customizable) ATR calculation and highest high & lowest low prices to calculate the actual trend. Basically it determines the trend direction by using highest high & lowest low and calculates (depending on the determined direction) the ATR trend by using a ATR based calculation and comparison method.
The indicator will draw one trendline by default. It is also possible to draw a second trendline which shows a 'negative trend'. This trendline is calculated the same way the primary trendline is calculated but uses a negative (-1 by default) value for the ATR calculation. This trendline can be used to detect early trend changes and/or micro trends.
How to use:
Due to its ATR nature the ATR trend will show trend changes by changing the trendline direction. This means that when the price crosses the trendline it does not automatically mean a trend change. However using the 'negative trend' option ATR trend can show early trend changes and therefore good entry points.
Some notes:
- A (confirmed) trend change is shown by a changing color and/or moving trendline (up/down)
- Unlike other indicators the 'time period' value is not the primary adjustment setting. This value is only used to calculate highest high & lowest low values and has medium impact on trend calculation. The primary adjustment setting is 'ATR weight'
- Every settings has a tooltip with further explanation
- I added additional color coding which uses a different color when the trend attempts to change but the trend change isn't confirmed (yet)
- Default values work fine (at least in my back testing) but the recommendation is to adjust the settings (especially ATR weight) to your trading style
- You can further finetune this indicator by using custom moving average types for the ATR calculation (like linear regression or Hull moving average)
- Both trendlines can be used to determine future support and resistance zones
- ATR trend can be used as a stop loss finder
- Alerts are using buy/sell signals
- You can use fancy color filling ;)
Happy trading!

Relative Strength Trend Indicator (RSTI)This indicator is called the "Relative Strength Trend Indicator" (RSTI), designed to assess the relative strength of a trend.
Here is a detailed explanation of how it works and how traders can interpret it:
Indicator Operation:
1. Data Source (src): The indicator considers a data source, typically the closing price (close), but this can be adjusted according to the trader's preferences.
2. Period Length (Length): This determines the period used to calculate the simple moving average (SMA) of the data source. A longer period smoothes the indicator, while a shorter period makes it more responsive.
3. Multiplier (Multiplier): This is a multiplication factor applied to the Average True Range (ATR), adjusting the width of the bands.
4. Signal Length (Signal Length): This period is used to calculate the simple moving average of the relative strength (l_strength). It determines the sensitivity of the signal to changes in relative strength.
Interpretation of the Indicator:
1. Upper Strength Band (Upper Level): This line is drawn at 80 and represents a high strength level. When relative strength exceeds this value, it may indicate a potential overbought market.
2. Lower Strength Band (Lower Level): This line is drawn at 20 and represents a low strength level. When relative strength is below this value, it may indicate a potential oversold market.
3. RSTI Strength: The main line of the indicator, representing the calculated relative strength. When this line exceeds 50, it may indicate an uptrend, while a value below 50 may indicate a downtrend.
4. Filling Zones: These colored zones between levels 80 and 50, and between 50 and 20, can help quickly visualize relative strength. A colored zone above 50 indicates positive strength, while a colored zone below 50 indicates negative strength.
Qualities of the Indicator:
1. Adaptability: The use of ATR and the flexibility of parameters (length, multiplier, signal_length) allow the indicator to adapt to different market conditions.
2. Visual Clarity: Colored filling zones and horizontal lines make it easy to visualize relative strength levels.
3. Strength Signal: The signal line (RSTI Strength) allows traders to quickly spot changes in relative strength, facilitating decision-making.
4. Responsiveness: The combination of smoothed moving averages and relative strength indicators allows responsiveness to trend changes while reducing false signals.
It is essential to note that while this indicator can provide valuable insights, it is always recommended to use it in conjunction with other technical analysis tools for informed decision-making.
Universal Volatility IndexThe Universal Volatility Index (UVI) is a robust indicator designed to gauge market volatility across various asset classes. By synthesizing multiple volatility measures, the UVI offers traders a nuanced understanding of market dynamics, aiding in the assessment of risk and the decision-making process.
How It Works:
The UVI incorporates three key components to calculate a composite volatility score:
Average True Range (ATR): This represents the average volatility over the specified period, giving a base measure of market movement.
Bollinger Bands Width: Highlights the expansion or contraction of price ranges, offering insights into market volatility relative to recent price action.
Rate of Change (ROC): Captures the momentum or the velocity of price changes, adding a temporal dimension to volatility assessment.
By combining these components, the UVI delivers a singular volatility metric that adapts to changing market conditions, providing a valuable tool for traders in any market.
Usage:
To apply the UVI to your chart, add the indicator from the Pine Script library and adjust the input parameters as desired.
The plot will display a line representing the composite volatility score, with higher values indicating increased market volatility and lower values suggesting calmer market conditions.
Benefits:
The UVI is versatile and can be applied to any market, making it a universal tool for traders.
The indicator helps in identifying periods of high risk where tighter risk management may be warranted.
It assists in pinpointing potential breakouts when volatility is expanding after a period of consolidation.

EXOFADEEXOFADE is an incredible trading indicator designed help give traders a visual clue of price momentum by combining Linear regression calculations with volume.
Overview:
ExoFade is a unique and dynamic trading indicator designed for both beginner and professional traders. At its core, it uses a sophisticated blend of multiple linear regression analysis, incorporating price, time, and volume-weighted moving average (VWMA) to predict potential price movements. By analyzing these key factors, EXOFade offers an innovative approach to understanding market trends and identifying trade opportunities.
Why It Works:
ExoFade works by calculating a regression line that adapts to market conditions, factoring in both price trends and trading volumes. This approach provides a more nuanced view of market momentum, going beyond traditional price-only indicators. The inclusion of time as a variable offers unique insights into market dynamics, making ExoFade a valuable tool for various trading strategies.
Key Features to Look Out For:
Regression Line: The heart of ExoFade, offering visual cues about the market's direction.
ATR-Based Fade Levels: Utilizes Average True Range (ATR) to set dynamic levels that signal potential reversals or continuation. The indicator comes with three fade levels, which are described below
Alert Conditions: You can set up for alerts for when any of the fade levels have been been reached, indicating potential entry points.
What Are Fade Levels And How To Use The Enter Trades:
The exofade line always moves with price, this indicates that the current volume is moving in the same direction.
When you see the exofade start to move ahead of price. For example, in an Uptrend, if price stops making new highs and you see the exofade line continue moving up ahead of price as price stagnates, this is the first time that you should be expecting pull back or reversal. When the line starts to visibly curve, this when you want to enter the trade.
Sometimes, the exofade line will move just a little bit ahead of price, and sometimes it will move a clear distance ahead of price.
From my experience, the further ahead it moves from price without price keeping up, the higher the probability of a pullback or reversal.
The actual pullback then starts when the exofade line starts to curve, which signifies the start if the actual pullback.
Since we cannot sit and watch for when the line has either moved further ahead enough or started to curve, thats why i figured to use ATR as the best way to measure the distance the exofade line moves ahead of price and the ATR also happens to measure Volatility, which makes it a perfect match.
From forward testing this for months, i have found the pullbacks typically start when the exofade line has moved ahead of price by atleast 2 ATR's. A distance of 2 ATR and above are the ones i consider the best setups. This also marks the point for your stop loss, since 2 ATR is generally used stoploss level.
To catch and sell a pullback in an uptrend, you can set alert for one or both of these alerts
Fade Level 2 abv price - This alert will trigger once Exofade line reached 2 ATR ABOVE price (Just means it has reached 2 atr, dosent mean it has started curving yet)
Curve lvl 2 - SELL - This alert means the exofade line has started to curve at 2 ATR
To buy pullbacks in a downtrend you set the opposite alerts of the one above for curve below price
There are also same alerts for level 3 as well, which is 2.5 ATR
IMPORTANT NOTES - DONT SKIP THIS
For daily and intra-day swings - Use this on 1hr trend upwards - The exofade line much slower on higher timeframe, so when you get a curve on a high time frame, like the 4HR or Daily timeframe, those are excellent signals
For scalpers trading 1hr below - The exofade moves faster on lower timeframes, so more caution should be used with these on lower timeframes , you this with other confluences like a good momentum oscillator oversold/overbought regions StochRSI, MACD etc
EXTRA TIPS
- Since the curve forms slower on higher time frames, it means getting a curve the on daily and weekly chart can help in your trend analysis to detect early signs of potential trend reversals
-I typically pair this with my customized version of Nadaraya watsons envelope ( a free indicator on tradingview) It will further improve your entry and winrate. Biggest advantage is for setting a profit target. In a buy trade for example, you buy the curve below price and set your profit target for the top band of the nadaraya watson envelope. Very efficient for scalping
- Unique areas were you want to pay attention to the exofade is when price enters points of interest, this depending on your trading style could be a
-FVG - fair value gaps
-Order blocks
- Supply / Demand areas
-Volume profile Value area High and Value area Low
The are two scenarios i would like you to be cautious of
1. As with every indicator and strategy, i most definitely wouldn't use this during high impact news.
2. If price is trending very strongly in one direction only, such that even barely gives any decent pull backs at all. Most especially if that strong push is happening between the 4hr to Daily time frame. Do not attempt to counter those trends unless you know what you are doing. Its not advisable.
Instead i'll recommend using the Exofade to catch an entry in the direction of the trade for a continuation.
And Lastly
Since this indicator uses VOLUME data as part of its calculations. It will not work on any pairs that tradingview does not provide volume data for, like Gold. But it will work normally on Gold Futures, since that has volume data
ATR StopThe "ATR Stop" indicator is designed to provide traders with insights into potential stop levels based on Average True Range (ATR) calculations specifically tailored for profitable (green candles) and unprofitable (red candles) price movements. This tool aims to assist traders in identifying potential stop levels that adjust dynamically based on the volatility of distinct market conditions.
The indicator functions by calculating two types of ATR: one for profitable movements and the other for unprofitable movements. The Average True Range is calculated separately for green and red candles, allowing users to assess potential stop levels more accurately based on the nature of price movements.
Key features of the "ATR Stop" indicator include:
Custom ATR Calculation: It calculates the ATR for profitable (green) and unprofitable (red) movements separately, considering only specific candle types based on their closing price relative to their opening price.
Dynamic Multiplier: Users can adjust the multiplier to fine-tune the sensitivity of the ATR-based stop levels, accommodating different risk preferences and market conditions.
Clear Visualization: The indicator plots the ATR levels for profitable (green) and unprofitable (red) movements one candle ahead on the chart, providing a visual representation of potential stop levels.
To use the indicator effectively, traders can adjust the ATR length and multiplier parameters based on their trading strategies and risk management preferences. By considering distinct price movements, this tool can assist in setting more informed stop levels in varying market conditions.
Please note that while the "ATR Stop" indicator can be a valuable addition to a trader's toolbox, it should be used in conjunction with other technical analysis tools and risk management strategies to make well-informed trading decisions.
Nasan Rate of Change (ROC)**NOTE: FOR COMPARISON TRADITIONAL ROC IS PLOTTED WITH THE SAME ROC LENGTH OF 9. IT IS NOT PART OF THE INDICATOR"
The Nasan ROC indicator is smoothed version of the of the traditional ROC indicator. The Nasna ROC uses a triple pass moving average differencing strategy. A cumulative sum of the deviations obtained from the moving average differencing provides a smooth "noise free" trend and this cumulative sum of deviations is used for calculating ROC.
Let's break down the components and understand the indicator we discussed earlier:
Sequential Triple Pass Filter:
Three filters with lengths specified by length1, length2, and length3 are applied to the closing prices (close).
The filters involve calculating the cumulative sum of the differences between the closing prices and their respective moving averages.
The idea is to detrend the data and accumulate the deviations from the average over time, emphasizing longer-term trends.
Calculation of Rate of Change (ROC) of Cumulative Sum:
The Rate of Change (ROC) of the cumulative sum (rocCumulativeSum) is calculated using the ta.roc function with a specified length (rocLength).
ROC measures the percentage change in the cumulative sum over a specified period.
The ROC histogram provides insights into the momentum of the detrended series. Positive values suggest increasing momentum, while negative values suggest decreasing momentum.
Pay attention to the color of the histogram bars.
The histogram bars are colored green if the current ROC value is greater than or equal to the previous ROC value, and red otherwise.
This coloring is based on the concept that a positive ROC suggests upward momentum, while a negative ROC suggests downward momentum.
Volatility - Volume Impact:
The Average True Range (ATR) is calculated with a period of 14.
Volume strength is calculated as a factor (VCF) that considers the ratio of the simple moving average (SMA) of the current volume to the SMA of the volume over a longer period (144).
This volume factor (VCF) is then multiplied by ATR, creating a synergy with volatility and volume.
Visualization with Background Color Gradient:
A background color gradient is applied to the chart based on the calculated volume strength (f1).
The gradient color ranges from black (indicating low ATR and volume strength) to purple (indicating high ATR and volume strength). A low value indicates a ranging market with no significant price movements and it is safter to avoid signals generated from ROC histogram in these region.
Synergy of ROC and Volume Strength:
Observe how the ROC signals align with the background color gradient. For example, confirm whether positive ROC aligns with periods of high ATR and volume strength.
This synergy can provide confirmation or divergence signals, adding another layer of analysis.
Average True Range Level█ Overview
The indicator uses color-coded columns to represent different levels of normalized ATR, helping traders identify periods of high or low volatility.
█ Calculations
The normalization process involves dividing the current True Range by the Average True Range. The formula for normalized ATR in the code is:
nAtr = nz(barRange/atr)
█ How To Use
Level < 1
During periods when the normalized ATR is less than 1, suggesting a lower level of volatility, traders may explore inside bar strategies. These strategies focus on trading within the range of the previous bar, aiming to capitalize on potential breakout opportunities.
Level between 1 and 3
In instances where the normalized ATR falls between 1 and 3, indicating moderate volatility, a pullback strategy may be considered. Traders look for temporary corrections against the prevailing trend, entering positions in anticipation of the trend's resumption
Level between 2 and 3
Within the range of normalized ATR between 2 and 3, signifying a balanced level of volatility, traders might explore breakout strategies. These strategies involve identifying potential breakout levels using support and resistance or other indicators and entering trades in the direction of the breakout.
Level > 3
When the normalized ATR exceeds 3, signaling high volatility, traders should approach with caution. While not ideal for typical mean reversion strategies, this condition may indicate that the price has become overextended. Traders might wait for subsequent candles, observing a normalized ATR between 2 and 3, to consider mean reversion opportunities after potential overpricing during the high volatility period.
* Note: These strategies are suggestions and may not be suitable for all trading scenarios. Traders should exercise discretion, conduct their own analysis, and adapt strategies based on individual preferences and risk tolerance.
Red Candle ATRThis ATR - Average True Range - Measures only red candles, giving the average true range of market declines.
Predictive Indicator Matrix v2 (public)Predictive Indicator Matrix for TradingView
The "Predictive Indicator Matrix" is an advanced analytical tool for TradingView, designed to work across multiple timeframes from 1D to 5m. It employs a complex algorithm combining various technical indicators such as the Ichimoku Cloud, ADX, five EMAs, slow and fast versions of MACD, Stochastic Oscillator, and RSI. This combination is meticulously curated to provide a multifaceted view of the market.
The uniqueness of this script lies in its trigonometric and mathematical logic. It utilizes trigonometric functions, like the arctangent and cosine functions, to calculate the 'bias' and 'score' of market trends, presented in decimal percentages (%). These calculations are pivotal in understanding market dynamics and potential directional changes. The 'bias' is calculated using the cosine of the arctangent of the ratio between current and previous scores, adjusted for market shift. This innovative approach provides a nuanced understanding of market momentum and trend strength.
Furthermore, the script dynamically generates prediction lines based on these calculations. These lines represent potential future market paths, plotted using the current market data and the calculated levels from the matrix. This feature visually represents the script's analysis, offering users an intuitive and actionable insight into potential market movements.
The integration of these indicators, along with the trigonometric calculations, makes the script not only unique but also a powerful tool for traders. It encapsulates various market aspects in one matrix, offering a comprehensive analysis that goes beyond traditional indicator-based strategies.
Note 1: This tool is intended for market analysis and should not be construed as investment advice.
Note 2: Community engagement is encouraged. For additional features like a time display on the table, please provide feedback in the comments. I am open to incorporating such features to enhance the tool's utility based on user preference.
