Pro Supertrend CalculatorThis indicator is an adapted version of Julien_Eche's 'Pro Momentum Calculator' tailored specifically for TradingView's 'Supertrend indicator'.
The "Pro Supertrend Calculator" indicator has been developed to provide traders with a data-driven perspective on price movements in financial markets. Its primary objective is to analyze historical price data and make probabilistic predictions about the future direction of price movements, specifically in terms of whether the next candlestick will be bullish (green) or bearish (red). Here's a deeper technical insight into how it accomplishes this task:
1. Supertrend Computation:
The indicator initiates by computing the Supertrend indicator, a sophisticated technical analysis tool. This calculation involves two essential parameters:
- ATR Length (Average True Range Length): This parameter determines the sensitivity of the Supertrend to price fluctuations.
- Factor: This multiplier plays a pivotal role in establishing the distance between the Supertrend line and prevailing market prices. A higher factor value results in a more significant separation.
2. Supertrend Visualization:
The Supertrend values derived from the calculation are meticulously plotted on the price chart, manifesting as two distinct lines:
- Green Line: This line represents the Supertrend when it indicates a bullish trend, signifying an anticipation of rising prices.
- Red Line: This line signifies the Supertrend in bearish market conditions, indicating an expectation of falling prices.
3. Consecutive Candle Analysis:
- The core function of the indicator revolves around tracking successive candlestick patterns concerning their relationship with the Supertrend line.
- To be included in the analysis, a candlestick must consistently close either above (green candles) or below (red candles) the Supertrend line for multiple consecutive periods.
4.Labeling and Enumeration:
- To communicate the count of consecutive candles displaying uniform trend behavior, the indicator meticulously applies labels to the price chart.
- The positioning of these labels varies based on the direction of the trend, residing either below (for bullish patterns) or above (for bearish patterns) the candlestick.
- The color scheme employed aligns with the color of the candle, using green labels for bullish candles and red labels for bearish ones.
5. Tabular Data Presentation:
- The indicator augments its graphical analysis with a customizable table prominently displayed on the chart. This table delivers comprehensive statistical insights.
- The tabular data comprises the following key elements for each consecutive period:
a. Consecutive Candles: A tally of the number of consecutive candles displaying identical trend characteristics.
b. Candles Above Supertrend: A count of candles that remained above the Supertrend during the sequential period.
3. Candles Below Supertrend: A count of candles that remained below the Supertrend during the sequential period.
4. Upcoming Green Candle: An estimation of the probability that the next candlestick will be bullish, grounded in historical data.
5. Upcoming Red Candle: An estimation of the probability that the next candlestick will be bearish, based on historical data.
6. Tailored Configuration:
To accommodate diverse trading strategies and preferences, the indicator offers extensive customization options. Traders can fine-tune parameters such as ATR length, factor, label and table placement, and table size to align with their unique trading approaches.
In summation, the "Pro Supertrend Calculator" indicator is an intricately designed tool that leverages the Supertrend indicator in conjunction with historical price data to furnish traders with an informed outlook on potential future price dynamics, with a particular emphasis on the likelihood of specific bullish or bearish candlestick patterns stemming from consecutive price behavior.
Average True Range (ATR)
[TTI] Jon Tr3ndy ATR Label📜 ––––HISTORY & CREDITS––––
The Jon Tr3ndy ATR Label is another creation inspired by Tr3ndy Jon (Jonathan McKeever,) and his Supply and Demand System. Building on the legacy of our premium scripts Tr3ndy Bands, Tr3ndy Edges, Tr3ndy LIS and the Tr3ndy PMZ, this script brings the power of the Average True Range (ATR) to your fingertips, but with a Tr3ndy twist.
🦄 ––––CALCULATIONS––––
The indicator uses different calculations methods to determine (Average True Range) ATR for the stock. The available calculation are:
👉 Exponential Moving Average EMA,
👉 Simple Moving Average SMA,
👉 Relative Moving Average RMA,
👉 Weighted Moving Average WMA.
The available timeframes are:
👉 Daily D
👉 Weekly W
👉 Monthly M
When you hoover with the mouse above the label, you will see what type of calculation you have chosen.
🎯 ––––WHAT IT DOES––––
The Jon Tr3ndy ATR Label is designed to dynamically calculate and display the Average True Range (ATR) of the asset directly on your chart for any of the chosen timeframes (e.g. show Weekly ATR on a Daily chart).
It can be used on equities, forex, crypto and many more. ATR is a volatility indicator that measures the degree of price volatility. This script allows users to select between daily, weekly, or monthly ATR calculations and offers a choice of four averaging methods: EMA, SMA, RMA, and WMA. The resulting ATR value is then presented as an easily readable label on your chart, ensuring you're always informed about the market's volatility.
🛠️ ––––HOW TO USE IT––––
ATR Length : Set the desired period for the ATR calculation.
Average Type : Choose your preferred averaging method from EMA, SMA, RMA, or WMA.
Day Period : Select the desired time frame for the ATR calculation: Daily (D), Weekly (W), or Monthly (M).
Label Position : Adjust the position of the ATR label on your chart using the 'Panel Position' and 'Text Size' options.
Banner : Toggle the 'Banner' option to display the ATR label as a banner on your chart.
Interpreting the ATR Label : A higher ATR value indicates greater volatility, while a lower ATR suggests less volatility. Use this information in conjunction with other indicators and analysis techniques to make informed trading decisions.
Average Range LinesThis Average Range Lines indicator identifies high and low price levels based on a chosen time period (day, week, month, etc.) and then uses a simple moving average over the length of the lookback period chosen to project support and resistance levels, otherwise referred to as average range. The calculation of these levels are slightly different than Average True Range and I have found this to be more accurate for intraday price bounces.
Lines are plotted and labeled on the chart based on the following methodology:
+3.0: 3x the average high over the chosen timeframe and lookback period.
+2.5: 2.5x the average high over the chosen timeframe and lookback period.
+2.0: 2x the average high over the chosen timeframe and lookback period.
+1.5: 1.5x the average high over the chosen timeframe and lookback period.
+1.0: The average high over the chosen timeframe and lookback period.
+0.5: One-half the average high over the chosen timeframe and lookback period.
Open: Opening price for the chosen time period.
-0.5: One-half the average low over the chosen timeframe and lookback period.
-1.0: The average low over the chosen timeframe and lookback period.
-1.5: 1.5x the average low over the chosen timeframe and lookback period.
-2.0: 2x the average low over the chosen timeframe and lookback period.
-2.5: 2.5x the average low over the chosen timeframe and lookback period.
-3.0: 3x the average low over the chosen timeframe and lookback period.
Look for price to find support or resistance at these levels for either entries or to take profit. When price crosses the +/- 2.0 or beyond, the likelihood of a reversal is very high, especially if set to weekly and monthly levels.
This indicator can be used/viewed on any timeframe. For intraday trading and viewing on a 15 minute or less timeframe, I recommend using the 4 hour, 1 day, and/or 1 week levels. For swing trading and viewing on a 30 minute or higher timeframe, I recommend using the 1 week, 1 month, or longer timeframes. I don’t believe this would be useful on a 1 hour or less timeframe, but let me know if the comments if you find otherwise.
Based on my testing, recommended lookback periods by timeframe include:
Timeframe: 4 hour; Lookback period: 60 (recommend viewing on a 5 minute or less timeframe)
Timeframe: 1 day; Lookback period: 10 (also check out 25 if your chart doesn’t show good support/resistance at 10 days lookback – I have found 25 to be useful on charts like SPX)
Timeframe: 1 week; Lookback period: 14
Timeframe: 1 month; Lookback period: 10
The line style and colors are all editable. You can apply a global coloring scheme in the event you want to add this indicator to your chart multiple times with different time frames like I do for the weekly and monthly.
I appreciate your comments/feedback on this indicator to improve. Also let me know if you find this useful, and what settings/ticker you find it works best with!

ATR LevelsThe indicator calculates and displays key levels based on the Average True Range (ATR) of an asset's price. The ATR is a measure of market volatility, and this indicator uses it to create trigger levels and ATR target levels. The "ATR Levels" indicator helps traders identify potential entry and exit points based on market volatility, providing valuable information for their trading decisions.
The indicator adds text labels to indicate whether the levels are for "Puts" or "Calls" on the trigger levels, and "Target 1" or "Target 2" on the ATR target levels.
Input Description:
ATR Length: This is an input parameter that allows the user to set the number of periods used to calculate the Average True Range (ATR). The ATR measures the market's volatility, and a higher length value will result in a smoother ATR line.
Trigger Percentage: Another input parameter that determines the percentage above and below the previous day's close at which the trigger levels will be plotted. It allows traders to set the sensitivity of the trigger levels.
Lower Trigger Level Color and Upper Trigger Level Color: These input parameters allow the user to customize the colors of the trigger levels. The indicator will plot two lines representing the lower and upper trigger levels.
Level Size: This input parameter allows the user to adjust the thickness of the trigger level lines.
ATR Target Color: An input parameter that sets the color for the ATR target level lines.
ATR Target Multiplier 1 and ATR Target Multiplier 2: These are input parameters that allow the user to set the multiplier for calculating the ATR target levels. The indicator will plot two ATR target lines above and below the previous day's close, each multiplied by the specified multiplier.
*ATR Levels*This script is an enhanced version of "Saty's ATR Levels". With the help of SimpleCryptoLife, he reimagined the script to include these differences:
-view the ATR levels easily with labels and know where the price action is in relation to a specific level
-the included "price follow line" extends across the screen and through the ATR levels label to allow you to easily identify which level you're in or about to enter either on an upswing or downswing
- a +/- 4 and 5 ATR level created that can be turned on for those crazy runners, occasionally a stock will run >5 ATR if you're lucky
Select levels are standard when firing up the indicator but you can click on the appropriate levels to suit your needs and save it from there.
There are several modes to choose from >> Day, Multiday, Swing, Position and Long-Term - Try them out and see what works best for your trading style. For instance:
-Day mode is great for, you guessed it, day trades whether long or shot and ideally paired with 1h or less timeframes
-Multiday is similar to Swing mode and is great for trades less than a week and generally paired with 30m to 1 day timeframe
-Swing mode is great for 1-3 week trades and can be used on higher timeframe such as 30m to 1 day
-Position & long term are of course for longer term trades and ideally paired with 4 hour to 1 month timeframes
ATR length of 14 is standard (look up "Wilder's 14")
Trend indicator based off of the 9-21-34 EMAs // - Range against ATR for each period // - Put and call trigger levels table was created by Saty, located in upper right
Generally, once a candle hits the 23.6% level, look to "go long" but be sure to wait for confluences that support your strategy. Maybe you can wait till the 38.2 level or even higher, dependent on your risk tolerance (stop loss recommended). A candle could come back and retest a certain level that you're eyeing and then continue upwards. As each level is hit, the greater the chance to hit 1 ATR (or higher!). You can start to scale out of a trade at any level but any of the main ATR levels like +1, +2 and so on would be ideal places to take some profit. Keep in mind that a stock can make a run in the pre-market and once the opening bell hits the stock might already be above the +1 ATR level or higher. Conversely the aforementioned is true for stocks to short. The -23.6% level would a "trigger" level but you can use -38.2 etc
Regarding the "use current close" check box: if you're in after or pre-market hours, the ATR levels will remain from the previous day so you'll want to check this box to see what the new levels will be for the current day. But you'll want to uncheck it and leave it unchecked throughout the trading day.
If you find this indicator invaluable and it helps you become a more consistent and profitable trader, feel free to give it a boost and leave a comment if you so desire. As always, trade at your own risk and never use more money than you afford to lose.
Equity Sessions [vnhilton]Note: Numbers in the chart above, particularly volume, are incorrect as I didn't have extra market data at the time of publication. Default settings are set for US markets.
(OVERVIEW)
This indicator was made specifically for equity markets which have pre-market and after-hours trading, though can be used for any other markets without these sessions, there are many other session indicators better suited for those markets. What makes this indicator different to the hundreds of session indicators out there will be highlighted in bold in the Features section below.
(FEATURES)

ATR Extension [QuantVue]The Moving Average ATR Extension Indicator offers a powerful blend of two key market elements: the Average True Range (ATR) and Moving Averages (MA), capturing the dynamics of market momentum and trend direction.
This indicator is used to measure market extension from a user-selected moving average based on multiples of the Average True Range (ATR). By doing this, it becomes remarkably straightforward to spot strength at breakout points or exhaustion near the end of a run.
As a market breaks out the extension indicates a surge in buying pressure, while an extension after a sizeable move can often be an indication of market exhaustion. This extended position essentially reflects over-enthusiastic buying and could be an early warning sign of a potential trend reversal.
Breakout Strength:
Exhaustion:
Give this indicator a BOOST and COMMENT your thoughts!
We hope you enjoy.

ATR Stop Loss v4This indicator plots the current ATR value, and the Long and Short stop losses. Watch the indicator and move your stop loss to the Long or Short as necessary.
Unlike other ATR indicators this one allows the user to customize the table placement of the ATR calculations, and the colors of each row on the table, and the text. The ATR factors can also be edited.
Average True Range Trailing Mean [Alifer]Upgrade of the Average True Range default indicator by TradingView. It adds and plots a trailing mean to show periods of increased volatility more clearly.
ATR TRAILING MEAN
A trailing mean, also known as a moving average, is a statistical calculation used to smooth out data over time and identify trends or patterns in a time series.
In our indicator, it clearly shows when the ATR value spikes outside of it's average range, making it easier to identify periods of increased volatility.
Here's how the ATR Trailing Mean (atr_mean) is calculated:
atr_mean = ta.cum(atr) / (bar_index + 1) * atr_mult
The ta.cum() function calculates the cumulative sum of the ATR over all bars up to the current bar.
(bar_index + 1) represents the number of bars processed up to the current bar, including the current one.
By dividing the cumulative ATR ta.cum(atr) by (bar_index + 1) and then multiplying it by atr_mult (Multiplier), we obtain the ATR Trailing Mean value.
If atr_mult is set to 1.0, the ATR Trailing Mean will be equal to the simple average of the ATR values, and it will follow the ATR's general trend.
However, if atr_mult is increased, the ATR Trailing Mean will react more strongly to the ATR's recent changes, making it more sensitive to short-term fluctuations.
On the other hand, reducing atr_mult will make the ATR Trailing Mean less responsive to recent changes in ATR, making it smoother and less prone to reacting to short-term volatility.
In summary, adjusting the atr_mult input allows traders to fine-tune the ATR Trailing Mean's responsiveness based on their preferred level of sensitivity to recent changes in market volatility.
IMPLEMENTATION IN A STRATEGY
You can easily implement this indicator in an existing strategy, to only enter positions when the ATR is above the ATR Trailing Mean (with Multiplier-adjusted sensitivity). To do so, add the following lines of codes.
Under Inputs:
length = input.int(title="Length", defval=20, minval=1)
atr_mult = input.float(defval=1.0, step = 0.1, title = "Multiplier", tooltip = "Adjust the sensitivity of the ATR Trailing Mean line.")
smoothing = input.string(title="Smoothing", defval="RMA", options= )
ma_function(source, length) =>
switch smoothing
"RMA" => ta.rma(source, length)
"SMA" => ta.sma(source, length)
"EMA" => ta.ema(source, length)
=> ta.wma(source, length)
This will allow you to define the Length of the ATR (lookback length over which the ATR is calculated), the Multiplier to adjust the Trailing Mean's sensitivity and the type of Smoothing to be used for the ATR.
Under Calculations:
atr= ma_function(ta.tr(true), length)
atr_mean = ta.cum(atr) / (bar_index+1) * atr_mult
This will calculate the ATR based on Length and Smoothing, and the resulting ATR Trailing Mean.
Under Entry Conditions, add the following to your existing conditions:
and atr > atr_mean
This will make it so that entries are only triggered when the ATR is above the ATR Trailing Mean (adjusted by the Multiplier value you defined earlier).
ATR - DEFINITION AND HISTORY
The Average True Range (ATR) is a technical indicator used to measure market volatility, regardless of the direction of the price. It was developed by J. Welles Wilder and introduced in his book "New Concepts in Technical Trading Systems" in 1978. ATR provides valuable insights into the degree of price movement or volatility experienced by a financial asset, such as a stock, currency pair, commodity, or cryptocurrency, over a specific period.
ATR - CALCULATION AND USAGE
The ATR calculation involves three components:
1 — True Range (TR): The True Range is a measure of the asset's price movement for a given period. It takes into account the following factors:
The difference between the high and low prices of the current period.
The absolute value of the difference between the high price of the current period and the closing price of the previous period.
The absolute value of the difference between the low price of the current period and the closing price of the previous period.
Mathematically, the True Range (TR) for the current period is calculated as follows:
TR = max(high - low, abs(high - previous_close), abs(low - previous_close))
2 — ATR Calculation: The ATR is calculated as a Moving Average (MA) of the True Range over a specified period.
The ATR is calculated as follows:
ATR = MA(TR, length)
3 — ATR Interpretation: The ATR value represents the average volatility of the asset over the chosen period. Higher ATR values indicate higher volatility, while lower ATR values suggest lower volatility.
Traders and investors can use ATR in various ways:
Setting Stop Loss and Take Profit Levels: ATR can help determine appropriate stop-loss and take-profit levels in trading strategies. A larger ATR value might require wider stop-loss levels to allow for the asset's natural price fluctuations, while a smaller ATR value might allow for tighter stop-loss levels.
Identifying Market Volatility: A sharp increase in ATR might indicate heightened market uncertainty or the potential for significant price movements. Conversely, a decreasing ATR might suggest a period of low volatility and possible consolidation.
Comparing Volatility Between Assets: Since ATR uses absolute values, it shouldn't be used to compare volatility between different assets, as assets with higher prices will consistently have higher ATR values, while assets with lower prices will consistently have lower ATR values. However, the addition of a trailing mean makes such a comparison possible. An asset whose ATR is consistently close to its ATR Trailing Mean will have a lower volatility than an asset whose ATR continuously moves far above and below its ATR Trailing Mean. This can help traders and investors decide which markets to trade based on their risk tolerance and trading strategies.
Determining Position Size: ATR can be used to adjust position sizes, taking into account the asset's volatility. Smaller position sizes might be appropriate for more volatile assets to manage risk effectively.
Adaptive Moving Average with ATR bandsThis is script is essentially "AMA" and was originally developed by Alex Everget , I just added half ATR as a band to AMA to reduce the false breakouts and
use it to confirm hidden divergence with it.
ATR InfoWhat Is the Average True Range (ATR)?
The average true range (ATR) is a technical analysis indicator, introduced by market technician J. Welles Wilder Jr. in his book New Concepts in Technical Trading Systems, that measures market volatility by decomposing the entire range of an asset price for that period.
Each instrument per unit of time passes its average value of the true range, but there are moments when the volatility explodes or abruptly decays, these phenomena introduce large distortions into the average value of the true range.
The ATR_WPB function calculates the average value of the true range for the specified number of bars, while excluding paranormally large and paranormally small bars from the calculation of the average.
For example, if the instrument has passed a small ATR value, then it has many chances to continue moving, but if the instrument has passed its ATR value, then the chances of continuing to move are extremely low.

Price Exhaustion IndicatorThe Price Exhaustion Indicator (PE) is a powerful tool designed to identify trends weakening and strengthening in the financial markets. It combines the concepts of Average True Range (ATR), Moving Average Convergence Divergence (MACD), and Stochastic Oscillator to provide a comprehensive assessment of trend exhaustion levels. By analyzing these multiple indicators together, traders and investors can gain valuable insights into potential price reversals and long-term market highs and lows.
The aim of combining the ATR, MACD, and Stochastic Oscillator, is to provide a comprehensive analysis of trend exhaustion. The ATR component helps assess the volatility and range of price movements, while the MACD offers insights into the convergence and divergence of moving averages. The Stochastic Oscillator measures the current price in relation to its range, providing further confirmation of trend exhaustion. The exhaustion value is derived by combining the MACD, ATR, and Stochastic Oscillator. The MACD value is divided by the ATR value, and then multiplied by the Stochastic Oscillator value. This calculation results in a single exhaustion value that reflects the combined influence of these three indicators.
Application
The Price Exhaustion Indicator utilizes a unique visual representation by incorporating a gradient color scheme. The exhaustion line dynamically changes color, ranging from white when close to the midline (40) to shades of purple as it approaches points of exhaustion (overbought at 100 and oversold at -20). As the exhaustion line approaches the color purple, this represents extreme market conditions and zones of weakened trends where reversals may occur. This color gradient serves as a visual cue, allowing users to quickly gauge the strength or weakness of the prevailing trend.
To further enhance its usability, the Price Exhaustion Indicator also includes circle plots that signify potential points of trend reversion. These plots appear when the exhaustion lines cross or enter the overbought and oversold zones. Red circle plots indicate potential short entry points, suggesting a weakening trend and the possibility of a downward price reversal. Conversely, green circle plots represent potential long entry points, indicating a strengthening trend and the potential for an upward price reversal.
Traders and investors can leverage the Price Exhaustion Indicator in various ways. It can be utilized as a trend-following tool, or a mean reversion tool. When the exhaustion line approaches the overbought or oversold zones, it suggests a weakening trend and the possibility of a price reversal, helping identify potential market tops and bottoms. This can guide traders in timing their entries or exits in anticipation of a trend shift.
Utility
The Price Exhaustion Indicator is particularly useful for long-term market analysis, as it focuses on identifying long-term market highs and lows. By capturing the gradual weakening or strengthening of a trend, it assists investors in making informed decisions about portfolio allocation, trend continuation, or potential reversals.
In summary, the Price Exhaustion Indicator is a comprehensive and visually intuitive tool that combines ATR, MACD, and Stochastic Oscillator to identify trend exhaustion levels. By utilizing a gradient color scheme and circle plots, it offers traders and investors valuable insights into potential trend reversals and long-term market highs and lows. Its unique features make it a valuable addition to any trader's toolkit, providing a deeper understanding of market dynamics and assisting in decision-making processes. Please note that future performance of any trading strategy is fundamentally unknowable, and past results do not guarantee future performance.
ATR VisualizerAdvance Your Market Analysis with the True Range Indicator
The True Range Indicator is a sophisticated screener meticulously developed to bolster your trading execution by presenting an exceptional understanding of the market direction. The centerpiece of this instrument is a distinctive candle configuration depicting the Average True Range (ATR) and the Bear/Bull range. However, it traverses beyond the conventional channels to offer specific market settings to boost your trading decisions.
User-Defined Settings
Broadly, the indicator offers five dynamic settings:
Bear/Bull Range
The Bear/Bull Range outlines the ATR for each candle type - bearish and bullish - and then smartly opts for the pertinent one based on the prevalent market circumstances. This feature aids in comparing the range of bullish and bearish candlesticks, which deepens your understanding of the price action and volatility.
Bearish Range
The Bearish Range isolates and computes the ATR for bearish candles solely. Utilizing this option spots the bear-dominated periods and provides insights about potential market reversals or downward continuations.
Bullish Range
Opposite to the Bearish Range, the Bullish Range setting tabulates the ATR exclusively for bullish candles. It assists in tracking the periods when bulls control, enlightening traders about the possibility of upward continuations or trend reversals.
Average Range
The Average Range provides an unbiased measure of range without prioritizing either bull or bear trends. This model is ideal for traders looking for a holistic interpretation of market behavior, regardless of direction.
Cumulative Average Range
Equally significant is the Cumulative Average Range which calculates the aggregate moving average of the true ranges for an expressed period. This setting is extremely valuable when evaluating the long-term volatility and spotting potential breakouts.
Dual Candle Configuration
Going a step ahead, the True Range Indicator uniquely offers the possibility to incorporate more than one candle estimate on your screen. This ensures simultaneous analysis of multiple market dynamics, thereby enhancing your trading precision multifold.
Concluding Thoughts
In essence, the True Range Indicator is an indispensable companion for traders looking to not only leverage market volatility but also make educated predictions. Equipped with an array of insightful market settings and the ability to display dual candle estimates on-screen, you can customize the functionality to suit your unique trading style and magnify your market performance dramatically.
ATR DeltaThe ATR Delta indicator is based on the concept of Average True Range (ATR), which reflects the average price range over a specified period. By calculating the difference between current and previous ATR values, the ATR Delta provides valuable insights into volatility shifts in the market. This information can help traders identify periods of heightened or diminished price movement, enabling them to adjust their strategies accordingly.
The ATR Delta indicator consists of two main calculations:
-- ATR Calculation : The Average True Range (ATR) is calculated using the specified length parameter. It measures the average price range (including gaps) during that period. A larger ATR value indicates higher volatility, while a smaller value indicates lower volatility.
-- ATR Delta Calculation : The ATR Delta is calculated by subtracting the ATR value of the previous bar from the current ATR value. This calculation captures the change in volatility between the two periods, providing a measure of how volatility has evolved.
Positive ATR Delta values indicate an increase in volatility compared to the previous period. It suggests that price movements have expanded, potentially indicating a more active market. On the other hand, negative ATR Delta values indicate a decrease in volatility compared to the previous period. It suggests that price movements have contracted, potentially signaling a calmer or range-bound market.
The ATR Delta indicator uses coloration to visually represent the relationship between the ATR Delta, zero, and a signal line:
-- Green color is assigned when the ATR Delta is positive, above the signal line, and increasing. This coloration suggests a scenario of higher volatility, as the market is experiencing upward momentum in price swings.
-- Red color is assigned when the ATR Delta is negative, below the signal line, and decreasing. This coloration suggests a scenario of lower volatility, as the market is experiencing downward momentum in price swings.
-- Gray color is assigned for other cases when the ATR Delta and signal line relationship does not meet the above conditions.
These colors are reflected in the columns of the ATR Delta as well as the bar coloration.
The ATR Delta indicator includes a signal line, which acts as a reference for interpreting the ATR Delta values. The signal line is calculated as a moving average (EMA) of the ATR Delta over a specified length. It helps smooth out the ATR Delta fluctuations, providing a clearer indication of the underlying trend in volatility changes. When the ATR Delta crosses above the signal line, it may suggest a potential increase in volatility, indicating a market that is becoming more active. Conversely, when the ATR Delta crosses below the signal line, it may suggest a potential decrease in volatility, indicating a market that is becoming less active.
The coloration of the signal line in the ATR Delta indicator helps to differentiate between positive and negative values and provides further insight into market sentiment. When the signal line is positive, indicating increasing volatility, it is colored lime. This color choice reinforces the bullish sentiment and signifies potential opportunities for trend continuation or breakouts. On the other hand, when the signal line is negative, indicating decreasing volatility, it is colored fuchsia. This color choice highlights the bearish sentiment and suggests potential range-bound or consolidation periods. These colors are reflected in the background of the indicator.
The ATR Delta indicator offers several potential applications for traders:
-- Volatility Analysis : The ATR Delta is invaluable for understanding and analyzing volatility dynamics in the market. Traders can observe the changes in ATR Delta values and use them to assess the current level of price movement. This information can help determine the appropriate strategies and risk management approaches.
-- Breakout Strategies : Traders often use the ATR Delta to identify periods of increased volatility, which frequently accompany breakouts. By monitoring the ATR Delta, traders can anticipate potential price breakouts and adjust their entry and exit levels accordingly.
-- Trend Confirmation : Combining the ATR Delta with trend-following indicators allows traders to validate the strength of a trend. Higher ATR Delta values during an uptrend may indicate stronger momentum and a higher likelihood of continuation. Conversely, lower ATR Delta values during a downtrend may suggest a potential consolidation phase or trend reversal.
Limitations :
-- Lagging Indicator : The ATR Delta indicator is based on historical data and calculates the difference between current and previous ATR values. As a result, it may lag behind real-time market conditions. Traders should be aware of this delay and consider it when making trading decisions. It is advisable to combine the ATR Delta with other indicators or price action analysis for a more comprehensive assessment of market conditions.
-- Parameter Sensitivity : The ATR Delta indicator's effectiveness can be influenced by the selection of its parameters, such as the length of the ATR and signal line. Different market conditions may require adjustments to these parameters to better capture volatility changes. Traders should carefully test and optimize the indicator's parameters to align with the characteristics of the specific market or asset they are trading.
-- Market Regime Changes : The ATR Delta indicator assumes that volatility changes occur gradually. However, in rapidly changing market regimes or during news events, volatility can spike or drop abruptly, potentially rendering the indicator less effective. Traders should exercise caution and consider using additional tools or techniques to identify and adapt to such market conditions.
The ATR Delta indicator is a valuable tool for traders seeking to analyze and monitor volatility dynamics in the market. By calculating the difference between current and previous ATR values, it provides insights into changes in price movement and helps identify periods of increased or decreased volatility. Traders can leverage the ATR Delta to fine-tune their strategies, validate trend strength, and identify potential breakout opportunities. However, it is essential to recognize the limitations of the indicator, including its lagging nature and sensitivity to parameter selection. By combining the ATR Delta with other technical analysis tools and applying sound risk management practices, traders can enhance their decision-making process and potentially improve their trading outcomes.
Force Index with ATR channels-----------------------------------------------------------------
General Description:
This indicator multiplies the change of closing price for any bar by volume during that bar and plots an exponential moving average of the result. It is excellent for analyzing volume, deeper than simply looking at volume bars.
The cool thing about this particular version of the Force Index is that Average True Range (ATR) channels have been added to turn it into an excellent tool for identifying intermediate tops and bottoms. Force Index with ATR channels does not catch all turns, but the ones it identifies deserve very serious attention.
The indicator works on any market, any instrument, any timeframe, and any market condition.
-----------------------------------------------------------------
How it works:
Calculation:
Force Index = {Close (current period) - Close (prior period)} x Volume (current period)
If we smooth the indicator with a moving average the indicator gives much better trading signals.
Force Index(smoothed) = X-period EMA of Force Index
Changing the EMA length changes the focus of Force Index. Longer-term 13-bar EMA of Force Index helps identify intermediate trend reversals. Shorter-term 2-bar EMA helps identify market extremes.
The indicator also has the option to plot ATR channels to Force Index. Whenever the Force Index rises above or falls below its 3-ATR channel, it signals that the ticker has reached an area of an unsustainable extreme. That’s where rallies and declines become exhausted and prices tend to reverse. This is one of very few tools that are equally efficient in calling both top and bottom areas. This indicator places a red dot above the plot when the EMA of Force Index rises above the 3-ATR channel. It places a green dot underneath the plot when that EMA declines below the 3-ATR channel.
These signals work especially well on higher timeframes, weekly charts for example. Of course, you are welcome to experiment with them in any timeframe.

Smooth Trail V1Please, enjoy your new game changing tradingview indicator, may I present you: the Smooth Trail (first version).
The Smooth Trail is an indicator that works just like a super trend, but it has a completely different usage and potential.
The super trend works following the price and displaying a line that uses the ATR to determine how far it has to be from the actual price, and many new trader like to use the indicator thanks to his easy readability and the buy sell signals that it shows, unfortunately this is not the best usage of the indicator and it often leads to lose money on the markets.
The main characteristics that this indicator has is that, not like the normal super trend, it follow the trend the better adapting itself in the retracement phases.
The second feature that dictate the best usage of this indicator, is that it shows a zone in which to buy or sell to have the best risk to reward ratio.
The indicator also works as dynamic level of support and resistance and can be used the best for trend following strategies to maximize the profits.
The first input, the multiplier, is used to determine how many times the ATR has to be added or subtracted in order to plot the indicator.
The second input, the length, is used to determine how many candle the indicator and the ATR have to consider for the calculation.
The third and last input, the zone width, is used to calculate the width of the zone displayed by the indicator, and is the factor that will be multiplied to the ATR, this means that if you leave the settings as default, the zone will be 1 ATR or 34 candle width.
This indicator is great to use in confluence with other indicator or with various candlestick pattern.
VIX, ATR, and Volatility Indicatorhere what the indictor do !
The "VIX, ATR, and Volatility Indicator" combines the Volatility Index (VIX), Average True Range (ATR), and moving averages to provide insights into market volatility.
VIX (Volatility Index):
The VIX measures the expected volatility in the market over the next 30 days. A higher VIX value indicates increased market volatility, while a lower value suggests lower volatility.
ATR (Average True Range):
The ATR is a technical indicator that measures the average range between high and low prices over a specified period. It provides a sense of the market's volatility by considering price movements. Higher ATR values indicate greater volatility, while lower values indicate lower volatility.
Moving Averages:
The indicator calculates both an Exponential Moving Average (EMA) and Simple Moving Average (SMA) with a specific period (e.g., 50).
Moving averages smooth out price data to identify trends and potential areas of support or resistance.
Volatility Detection:
By comparing the current closing price to the EMA and SMA, the indicator determines if there is high volatility.
If the current closing price is higher than either the EMA or SMA, it indicates potential high volatility.
Visualization:
The VIX and ATR are typically plotted on the chart, providing a visual representation of market volatility and price range.
Additionally, markers or labels may be used to highlight periods of high volatility when the current price exceeds the moving averages.
what are the VIX and ATR
Volatility Index (VIX):
Monitor the VIX value from financial platforms or market data providers. A higher VIX value indicates increased market volatility, suggesting potential trading opportunities. Conversely, a lower VIX value indicates lower volatility, which may influence your trading strategy.
Average True Range (ATR):
Calculate the ATR manually or use charting platforms that provide ATR as an indicator.
Plot the ATR on your trading chart to visualize the range of price movements.
Determine suitable entry and exit points based on ATR values. For example, higher ATR values may indicate larger potential price swings, while lower ATR values may suggest a more stable market.
how it work
Fetching VIX Data:
The request.security function is used to fetch the daily VIX data from the "CBOE:VIX" symbol. It retrieves the closing price of the VIX for each day.
Calculating ATR:
The ta.atr function calculates the Average True Range (ATR) with a period of 14. ATR measures the average range between the high and low prices over the specified period, providing an indication of market volatility.
Calculating Moving Averages:
Two types of moving averages are calculated: Exponential Moving Average (EMA) and Simple Moving Average (SMA). Both moving averages are calculated using a period of 50, but you can adjust the period as needed.
The ta.ema function calculates the Exponential Moving Average, which places greater weight on recent prices.
The ta.sma function calculates the Simple Moving Average, which gives equal weight to all prices in the period.
Identifying High Volatility:
The indicator determines if there is high volatility by comparing the current closing price to both the EMA and SMA.
If the current closing price is higher than either the EMA or SMA, the isHighVolatility variable is set to true, indicating potential high volatility.
Plotting the Indicators:
The VIX and ATR are plotted using the plot function, assigning colors and line widths for visual differentiation.
The plotshape function is used to plot markers below the bars to indicate highly volatile periods. The isHighVolatility variable determines when the markers appear.
ATR Momentum [QuantVue]ATR Momentum is a dynamic technical analysis tool designed to assess the momentum of a securities price movement. It utilizes the comparison between a faster short-term Average True Range (ATR) and a slower long-term ATR to determine whether momentum is increasing or decreasing.
This indicator visually represents the momentum relationship by plotting both ATR values as lines on a chart and applying color fill between the lines based on if momentum is increasing or decreasing.
When the short-term ATR is greater than the long-term ATR, representing increasing momentum, the area between them is filled with green.
Conversely, when the short-term ATR is less than the long-term ATR line, the area between them is filled with red. This red fill indicates decreasing momentum.
Don't hesitate to reach out with any questions or concerns.
We hope you enjoy!
Cheers.
[SMT] Buy & Sell Renko Based - AlertsThis is a custom indicator that implements a trading strategy based on Renko charts, but they can be used on regular candlestick charts and on any time frame. Renko charts are known for filtering market noise and displaying price movements in a clearer way. However, it is important to note that this indicator is provided for educational and informational purposes only and is not a guarantee of profitable returns.
Features:
- The indicator uses Renko charts to generate buy and sell signals.
- Renko bricks are built based on a predefined price variation, rather than time.
- The length of the Average True Range (ATR) used to calculate Renko bricks can be customized.
- Buy signals are generated when the price crosses below the current Renko brick.
- Sell signals are generated when the price crosses above the current Renko brick.
- Entry points are marked with "Buy" and "Sell" arrows on the chart.
It is essential to emphasize that no indicator or trading strategy guarantees profitable results. The financial market is complex and subject to unpredictable changes. It is recommended to perform additional tests and analysis before using this indicator on a real trading account.
Always remember to manage your risks properly and consider other factors such as fundamental analysis and market conditions when making trading decisions. The use of this indicator is entirely the user's responsibility.
DISCLAIMER: This indicator is not financial advice and should not be interpreted as such. Always consult with a qualified financial professional before making any investment decisions.
Range H/L Buy and Sell SignalThe "Range H/L Buy and Sell Signal" indicator is designed to identify potential buy and sell signals based on a specified price range and market volatility. This indicator can be used in the TradingView platform to assist traders in making informed decisions.
The indicator allows customization of several parameters to adapt to different trading strategies. These parameters include the start and end times for the price range, the volatility threshold, and the desired breakout conditions.
To begin, the indicator calculates the range start and end timestamps based on the provided hours and minutes. This defines the time period within which the indicator will analyze price movements.
Next, the indicator determines the highest high (High) and lowest low (Low) within the specified price range. These levels represent the upper and lower boundaries of the range and act as potential breakout points.
Volatility is also taken into account to filter out false signals. The indicator calculates the true range and the average true range over a period of 14 bars. The true range measures the price range from the current high to low, while the average true range provides an indication of market volatility.
Based on the breakout conditions and the volatility threshold, buy and sell signals are generated. A buy signal occurs when the closing price crosses above the High and the true range is greater than the volatility threshold multiplied by the average true range. Conversely, a sell signal is triggered when the closing price crosses below the Low and the true range exceeds the volatility threshold multiplied by the average true range.
The indicator visually displays the High and Low levels as plotted lines on the chart. Additionally, it marks the buy signals with green labels labeled "BUY" below the corresponding bars and the sell signals with red labels labeled "SELL" above the bars.
It is important to note that this indicator should be used in conjunction with other technical analysis tools and indicators for comprehensive market analysis. Trading always carries risks, and it is crucial to exercise caution and conduct thorough analysis before making any trading decisions.

MTF Fusion - SuperTrend [TradingIndicators]SuperTrend is undoubtedly one of the most popular and influential indicators ever developed, and by combining it with our MTF Fusion algorithm, we believe we have made it more useful and powerful than ever with MTF Fusion SuperTrend .
Let's start with a brief review of what the original SuperTrend indicator is and how it works.
What is SuperTrend?
The SuperTrend indicator is a popular technical analysis tool used in financial markets to identify the direction of a trend and potential entry and exit points for trading. It was developed by Olivier Seban, a French trader, and first introduced in his book "Tout le monde peut gagner en bourse" ("Everyone Can Win in the Stock Market") published in 2008.
SuperTrend is based on the concept of Average True Range (ATR) and uses two parameters: the multiplier and the period. The ATR measures the volatility of a financial instrument, and the SuperTrend indicator utilizes this information to plot a line above or below the price chart. It is an 'AITM' (Always In The Market) indicator, which, in its original form, is always 'long' or 'short' - and never 'flat'.
Here's a brief overview of how the SuperTrend indicator works:
Calculation of the ATR: The ATR is calculated using historical price data over a specified period. It measures the average range between high and low prices, reflecting the market's volatility.
Calculation of the upward (long/bullish) and downward (short/bearish) SuperTrend lines: The SuperTrend indicator multiplies the ATR by a specified multiplier (typically 2 or 3) and adds/subtracts the result from the current closing price. This calculation determines the upward and downward SuperTrend lines.
Plotting the Indicator: The SuperTrend indicator plots a line above the price chart when the price is trending upwards, and below the price chart when the price is trending downwards. The distance between the price and the indicator line provides insights into the strength of the trend.
Traders commonly use the SuperTrend indicator to identify potential buy or sell signals. For example, a buy signal may be generated when the price crosses above the indicator line, indicating an uptrend. Conversely, a sell signal may be triggered when the price crosses below the indicator line, signaling a downtrend.
What is MTF Fusion?
Multi-Timeframe (MTF) Fusion is the process of combining calculations from multiple timeframes higher than the chart's into one 'fused' value or indicator. It is based on the idea that integrating data from higher timeframes can help us to better identify short-term trading opportunities within the context of long-term market trends.
How does it work?
Let's use the context of this indicator, which calculates SuperTrend lines, as an example to explain how MTF Fusion works and how you can perform it yourself.
Step 1: Selecting Higher Timeframes
The first step is to determine the appropriate higher timeframes to use for the fusion calculation. These timeframes should typically be chosen based on their ability to provide meaningful price levels and action which actively affect the price action of the smaller timeframe you're focused on. For example, if you are trading the 5 minute chart, you might select the 15 minute, 30 minute, and hourly timeframe as the higher timeframes you want to fuse in order to give you a more holistic view of the trends and action affecting you on the 5 minute. In this indicator, four higher timeframes are automatically selected depending on the timeframe of the chart it is applied to.
Step 2: Gathering Data and Calculations
Once the higher timeframes are identified, the next step is to calculate the data from these higher timeframes that will be used to calculate your fused values. In this indicator, for example, the values of SuperTrend lines are calculated by determining the value of the SuperTrend indicator for all four higher timeframes.
Step 3: Fusing the Values From Higher Timeframes
The next step is to actually combine the values from these higher timeframes to obtain your 'fused' indicator values. The simplest approach to this is to simply average them. If you have calculated the value of a SuperTrend line from three higher timeframes, you can, for example, calculate your 'multi-timeframe fused level' as (HigherTF_SuperTrend_1 + HigherTF_SuperTrend_2 + HigherTF_SuperTrend_3) / 3.0.
Step 4: Visualization and Interpretation
Once the calculations are complete, the resulting fused indicator values are plotted on the chart. These values reflect the fusion of data from the multiple higher timeframes, giving a broader perspective on the market's behavior and potentially valuable insights without the need to manually consider values from each higher timeframe yourself.
What makes this script unique? Why is it closed source?
While the process described above is fairly unique and sounds simple, the truly important key lies in determining which higher timeframes to fuse together, and how to weight their values when calculating the fused end result in such a way that best leverages their relationship for useful TA.
This MTF Fusion indicator employs a smart, adaptive algorithm which automatically selects appropriate higher timeframes to use in fusion calculations depending on the timeframe of the chart it is applied to. It also uses a dynamic algorithm to adjust and weight the SuperTrend calculations depending on each higher timeframe's relationship to the chart timeframe. These algorithms are based on extensive testing and are the reason behind this script's closed source status.
Unlike in the original indicator, flat/'No Trend' areas exist in MTF Fusion SuperTrend!
MTF Fusion SuperTrend only shows a Fusion SuperTrend when the majority of SuperTrends from higher timeframes are in agreement and signaling the same trend direction . So, unlike the original SuperTrend indicator, MTF Fusion SuperTrend sometimes shows no SuperTrend line at all - typically in flat or indecisive areas, which we think is beneficial and helps to filter out noise on smaller timeframes.

HL ATRUnlocking Market Volatility: The Adaptive Highest High Lowest Low Indicator
As seasoned traders know, accurately identifying and leveraging market highs and lows can significantly impact your trading performance. One innovative tool for harnessing these inflection points is the Adaptive Highest High Lowest Low Indicator. Built for intuitive trading, this indicator offers a distinctive edge in identifying key trading signals in volatile markets.
1. Understanding the Indicator
At its core, the Adaptive Highest High Lowest Low Indicator operates by pinpointing the highest highs and lowest lows within a specified lookback period. What sets it apart is its ability to adapt and respond to market volatility, enhancing its utility in various market conditions.
Key parameters include the lookback period, the number of confirmation candles, the number of previous high/low lines to display, and the Average True Range (ATR) period. Each of these inputs offers the trader flexibility to fine-tune the indicator to suit their specific trading style and the prevailing market conditions.
2. Harnessing the Power of Highs and Lows
The indicator begins by charting the highest high and the lowest low within your chosen lookback period. These highs and lows are treated as levels of resistance and support, respectively. Once identified, lines are drawn at these points, offering visual cues for strategic trading.
However, the indicator doesn't stop at identifying these levels. It waits for the price to confirm these levels, using a user-defined number of 'Confirmation Candles'. This ensures that the highs and lows are robust and significant, thereby minimizing the risk of false breakouts or breakdowns.
3. Volatility Filter: The ATR
The incorporation of the ATR into this indicator is a key distinguishing feature. The ATR measures market volatility by calculating the range of price movements over a given period. By incorporating the ATR, this indicator can adapt to changes in volatility. Specifically, the ATR acts as a filter for the buy and sell signals, helping to avoid false signals during low volatility periods and highlight meaningful breaks during high volatility periods.
4. Deciphering Buy and Sell Signals
The Adaptive Highest High Lowest Low Indicator offers clear signals for potential entry points. A 'Buy' label appears when the price breaks and closes above a previously identified high by an amount greater than the ATR. Conversely, a 'Sell' label is generated when the price breaks and closes below a previously identified low by an amount greater than the ATR.
5. Where Does This Indicator Shine?
This indicator thrives in markets characterized by high volatility. The ATR component allows the tool to adjust itself to changing market conditions, enhancing its effectiveness in volatile markets. It suits various financial markets, including stocks, forex, commodities, and cryptocurrencies, among others.
However, it's crucial to remember that this tool should not be used in isolation. It's most effective when used in conjunction with other indicators and within the context of a well-planned trading strategy. Always remember to use good risk management and adjust the settings of the indicator as per changing market conditions.
In conclusion, the Adaptive Highest High Lowest Low Indicator is a versatile and powerful tool for traders seeking to capitalize on market volatility. By combining the power of highs, lows, and the ATR, this indicator offers an innovative approach to navigating the financial markets.
Basic steps of how you could use this indicator for trading.
Identify Highs and Lows: The indicator draws lines at the highest high and lowest low of a given lookback period. Use these lines to identify key levels of support (lows) and resistance (highs).
Confirm the Trend: Wait for the price to confirm these levels. This is done by the number of 'Confirmation Candles'. For example, if 'Confirmation Candles' is set to 7, then a high or low is confirmed if the price has not broken that level in the past 7 candles.
Use the ATR as a Filter: The Average True Range (ATR) is used as a volatility filter. It can help to filter out signals that occur during low volatility periods, which might be false breakouts or breakdowns.
Entry Points: Entry points are determined by the labels "Buy" and "Sell" that appear on the chart.
Buy Signal: When a 'Buy' label appears, this indicates the price has broken above a previously identified high and closed above it by an amount greater than the ATR. This could be considered a bullish signal and a potential point to enter a long position.
Sell Signal: When a 'Sell' label appears, this indicates the price has broken below a previously identified low and closed below it by an amount greater than the ATR. This could be considered a bearish signal and a potential point to enter a short position.
Exit Points: The indicator does not provide specific exit points. These would need to be based on your risk tolerance, trading strategy, and other factors. You might consider exiting a position when the price reaches a new high/low, when a contrary signal appears, or when the price breaks a certain level of support or resistance.
Risk Management: It's important to set stop-loss levels and take-profit levels for each trade. This could be based on a fixed percentage, the ATR, or the highs and lows identified by the indicator.
Periodically Adjust Settings: Depending on market conditions, you might need to adjust the settings of the indicator, like the lookback period, confirmation candles, and ATR period.
Remember, this indicator should not be used in isolation. It's best to use it in combination with other tools and techniques, and always in the context of a well-planned trading strategy. It's also important to backtest any strategy before using it in live trading.
Dodge Trend [MyTradingCoder]Introducing the "Dodge Trend" indicator, an innovative variant of the Supertrend indicator designed to help traders better avoid fakeouts and maintain positions in established trends.
Like the Supertrend, the Dodge Trend uses Average True Range (ATR) but incorporates a unique adaptive adjustment feature that differentiates it from its counterparts. While the conventional Supertrend rises with the trend and only descends when the price crosses it, the Dodge Trend is designed to 'dodge' potential fakeouts.
This 'dodging' mechanism works by allowing the Dodge Trend to fall slightly during pullbacks, reducing the risk of a premature exit due to a temporary price drop. The recovery rate after the pullback is quicker but is slightly lower than the rate at which a new Dodge Trend high would be established in an uptrend. This unique adjustment feature allows the Dodge Trend to chase price action in an exponential fashion, potentially enabling a quicker exit when the trend shifts.
Key Settings:
Length: Adjust how much price action is taken into consideration for the ATR average. Lower values yield higher responsiveness to recent price action.
Size: Determines the initial deviation of the Dodge Trend when it resets after every flip/break.
Source: Specifies the data point (close, high, open, low, hl2, etc.) used for the Dodge Trend.
Dodge Intensity: Adjusts the intensity of the pullback effect. Higher values result in more intense pullbacks. Range is limited between 0 and 99, with 95 as the recommended default.
Bullish Color Setting: Sets the color for the uptrend Dodge Trend.
Bearish Color Setting: Sets the color for the downtrend Dodge Trend.
Dodge Trend is a powerful tool for traders looking to ride trends and avoid unnecessary exits due to short-term price fluctuations. While it offers a unique feature that may potentially improve trading outcomes, it should be used in conjunction with other indicators and analysis methods for a comprehensive trading strategy. As with all tools, it does not guarantee profitable trades but aims to give traders more actionable and precise information to base their decisions on.
Experience trend-following in a more adaptive and efficient manner with the Dodge Trend indicator, a tool designed to help you 'dodge' false exits and stay in line with the overall trend.
