It combines the powerful Ichimoku Cloud system with VWMA, SuperTrend, RSI, and VWAP to provide a 360-degree view of market direction, trend strength, and trade zones. This indicator allows traders to instantly read multi-indicator alignment through a color-coded dashboard, helping filter out noise and improve timing for entries and exits. ⚙️ Core Features 🟢 1. Ichimoku Cloud Framework Displays all major Ichimoku elements: Tenkan-Sen, Kijun-Sen, Senkou Span A & B (Kumo Cloud). Detects Bullish and Bearish Tenkan-Kijun Crossovers. Identifies Cloud Trend Bias (price above, below, or inside the Kumo). Marks Buy / Sell / Wait Zones automatically based on price structure and line alignment. ⚡ 2. Multi-Indicator Confirmation Layer Enhance trend validation using: VWMA (Volume-Weighted Moving Average): Measures volume-driven price trend. SuperTrend: Uses ATR to confirm trend direction and detect reversals. RSI (Relative Strength Index): Gauges market momentum — above 50 indicates bullish bias, below 50 bearish. VWAP (Volume-Weighted Average Price): Tracks institutional and fair value price zones. Each of these indicators contributes to a synchronized dashboard view that instantly reveals market bias. 📊 3. Interactive Dashboard Display Clean, modern bottom-right table summarizing indicator values and their current trend status.

momentum spread strategy ilkerThis script is the opposite of a traditional mean-reversion pairs trading strategy. It is a "Cointegration Breakdown" or "Momentum Divergence" tool. Instead of betting on a spread's Z-Score to revert to 0, this strategy is designed to identify when the statistical relationship (the "elastic band") has snapped. It then provides signals to trade with the momentum as the spread diverges. It filters for true breakouts by waiting for a "Momentum Regime," which is confirmed only when the pair's relationship becomes statistically unstable. ## 📈 Key Features 1. The Momentum Regime (Blue Background) This is the core of the indicator. The background turns BLUE to signal a "Momentum Regime". This is the only time you should look for a momentum trade. The blue background activates only if TWO conditions are met simultaneously: • 1. Relationship Instability: The pair's relationship is broken. This is confirmed when either the rolling Correlation Z-Score (purple line) breaks down OR the Volatility Ratio (orange line) becomes unstable. • 2. Divergence Confirmation: The Half-Life calculation (from our v2.8 script) shows "N/A (Divergent)" in the dashboard. This mathematically confirms the mean-reverting force (\lambda) is gone (it has turned positive) and the spread is statistically diverging. If the background is GRAY, the script is in a "Neutral" or "Mean-Reversion" state, and all momentum signals should be ignored. 2. Momentum Breakout Signals This strategy inverts the Z-Score logic. The 0-line is not a profit target; it is the breakout line. • BUY Signal (Blue Triangle ▲): Appears only if the background is BLUE and the Z-Score (blue line) crosses ABOVE 0. This is your long momentum entry. • SELL Signal (Fuchsia Triangle ▼): Appears only if the background is BLUE and the Z-Score crosses BELOW 0. This is your short momentum entry. 3. Built-in Trade Management • Take Profit (X Cross): Your profit target is the outer band. The script plots an 'X' when the Z-Score hits the +2.0 band (for longs) or the -2.0 band (for shorts). • Stop Loss (X Cross): Your stop is a failure of the momentum. The script plots an 'X' if the Z-Score re-crosses the 0-line against your trade. 4. Full Quant Dashboard All the statistical components are plotted for analysis: • Price Z-Score (Blue Line): Your primary momentum indicator. • Z-Score Correlation (Purple Line): Lets you visually confirm the correlation breakdown. • Volatility Ratio (Orange Line): Lets you visually confirm the volatility spike. • Half-Life Dashboard: Confirms the regime by showing "N/A (Divergent)". ## 🛠 How to Use (Required Setup) IMPORTANT: This indicator is designed to run on a spread chart (e.g., M2K/MES or MGC/SIL). 1. Load your spread chart first (e.g., type M2K/MES in the ticker bar). 2. Add this indicator to the chart. 3. Go into the indicator's Settings (⚙). 4. In the "Inputs" tab, you MUST fill in the two individual tickers: • Ticker du Symbole 1 (REQUIS): M2K • Ticker du Symbole 2 (REQUIS): MES 5. The script uses these two inputs to calculate the Volatility and Correlation filters. The main Z-Score is calculated from the spread chart itself. This tool is for traders who want to capture explosive divergence moves that happen during fundamental news or regime changes, while filtering out the "noise" of stable, mean-reverting periods.

MACD HTF Hardcoded (A/B Presets) + Regimes [CHE] MACD HTF Hardcoded (A/B Presets) + Regimes — Higher-timeframe MACD emulation with acceptance-based regime filter and on-chart diagnostics Summary This indicator emulates a higher-timeframe MACD directly on the current chart using two hardcoded preset families and a time-bucket mapping, avoiding cross-timeframe requests. It classifies four MACD regimes and applies an acceptance filter that requires several consecutive bars before a state is considered valid. A small dead-band around zero reduces noise near the axis. An on-chart table reports the active preset, the inferred time bucket, the resolved lengths, and the current regime. Pine version: v6 Overlay: false Primary outputs: MACD line, Signal line, Histogram columns, zero line, regime-change alert, info table Motivation: Why this design? Cross-timeframe indicators often rely on external timeframe requests, which can introduce repaint paths and added latency. This design provides a deterministic alternative: it maps the current chart’s timeframe to coarse higher-timeframe buckets and uses fixed EMA lengths that approximate those views. The dead-band suppresses flip-flops around zero, and the acceptance counter reduces whipsaw by requiring sustained agreement across bars before acknowledging a regime. What’s different vs. standard approaches? Baseline: Classical MACD with user-selected lengths on the same timeframe, or higher-timeframe MACD via cross-timeframe requests. Architecture differences: Hardcoded A and B length families with a bucket map derived from the chart timeframe. No `request.security`; all calculations occur on the current series. Regime classification from MACD and Histogram sign, gated by an acceptance count and a small zero dead-band. Diagnostics table for transparency. Practical effect: The MACD behaves like a slower, higher-timeframe variant without external requests. Regimes switch less often due to the dead-band and acceptance logic, which can improve stability in choppy sessions. How it works (technical) The script derives a coarse bucket from the chart timeframe using `timeframe.in_seconds` and maps it to preset-specific EMA lengths. EMAs of the source build MACD and Signal; their difference is the Histogram. Signs of MACD and Histogram define four regimes: strong bull, weak bull, strong bear, and weak bear. A small, user-defined band around zero treats values near the axis as neutral. An acceptance counter checks whether the same regime persisted for a given number of consecutive bars before it is emitted as the filtered regime. A single alert condition fires when the filtered regime changes. The histogram columns change shade based on position relative to zero and whether they are rising or falling. A persistent table object shows preset, bucket tag, resolved lengths, and the filtered regime. No cross-timeframe requests are used, so repaint risk is limited to normal live-bar movement; values stabilize on close. Parameter Guide Source — Input series for MACD — Default: Close — Using a smoother source increases stability but adds lag. Preset — A or B length family — Default: “3,10,16” — Switch to “12,26,9” for the classic family mapped to buckets. Table Position — Anchor for the info table — Default: Top right — Choose a corner that avoids covering price action. Table Size — Table text size — Default: Normal — Use small on dense charts, large for presentations. Dark Mode — Table theme — Default: Enabled — Match your chart background for readability. Show Table — Toggle diagnostics table — Default: Enabled — Disable for a cleaner pane. Zero dead-band (epsilon) — Noise gate around zero — Default: Zero — Increase slightly when you see frequent flips near zero. Acceptance bars (n) — Bars required to confirm a regime — Default: Three — Raise to reduce whipsaw; lower to react faster. Reading & Interpretation Histogram columns: Above zero indicates bullish pressure; below zero indicates bearish pressure. Darker shade implies the histogram increased compared with the prior bar; lighter shade implies it decreased. MACD vs. Signal lines: The spread corresponds to histogram height. Regimes: Strong bull: MACD above zero and Histogram above zero. Weak bull: MACD above zero and Histogram below zero. Strong bear: MACD below zero and Histogram below zero. Weak bear: MACD below zero and Histogram above zero. Table: Inspect active preset, bucket tag, resolved lengths, and the filtered regime number with its description. Practical Workflows & Combinations Trend following: Use strong bull to favor long exposure and strong bear to favor short exposure. Use weak states as pullback or transition context. Combine with structure tools such as swing highs and lows or a baseline moving average for confirmation. Exits and risk: In strong trends, consider exiting partial size on a regime downgrade to a weak state. In choppy sessions, increase the acceptance bars to reduce churn. Multi-asset / Multi-timeframe: Works on time-based charts across liquid futures, indices, currencies, and large-cap equities. Bucket mapping helps retain a consistent feel when moving from lower to higher timeframes. Behavior, Constraints & Performance Repaint/confirmation: No cross-timeframe requests; values can evolve intrabar and settle on close. Alerts follow your TradingView alert timing settings. Resources: `max_bars_back` is set to five thousand. Very large resolved lengths require sufficient history to seed EMAs; expect a warm-up period on first load or after switching symbols. Known limits: Dead-band and acceptance can delay recognition at sharp turns. Extremely thin markets or large gaps may still cause brief regime reversals. Sensible Defaults & Quick Tuning Start with preset “3,10,16”, dead-band near zero, and acceptance of three bars. Too many flips near zero: increase the dead-band slightly or raise the acceptance bars. Too sluggish in clean trends: reduce the acceptance bars by one. Too sensitive on fast lower timeframes: switch to the “12,26,9” preset family or raise the acceptance bars. Want less clutter: hide the table and keep the alert.

Best Time Slots — Auto-Adapt (v6, TF-safe) + Range AlertsTime & binning Auto-adapt to timeframe Makes all time windows scale to your chart’s bar size (so it “just works” on 1m, 15m, 4H, Daily). • On = recommended. • Off = fixed default lengths. Minimum Bin (minutes) The size of each daily time slot we track (e.g., 5-min bins). The script uses the larger of this and your bar size. • Higher = fewer, broader slots; smoother stats. • Lower = more, narrower slots; needs more history. • Try: 5–15 on intraday, 60–240 on higher TFs. Lookback windows (used when Auto-adapt = ON) Target ER Window (minutes) How far back we look to judge Efficiency Ratio (how “straight” the move was). • Higher = stricter/smoother; fewer bars qualify as “movement”. • Lower = more sensitive. • Try: 60–120 min intraday; 240–600 min for higher TFs. Target ATR Window (minutes) How far back we compute ATR (typical range). • Higher = steadier ATR baseline. • Lower = reacts faster. • Try: 30–120 min intraday; 240–600 min higher TFs. Target Normalization Window (minutes) How far back for the average ATR (the baseline we compare to). • Higher = stricter “above average range” check. • Lower = easier to pass. • Try: ~500–1500 min. What counts as “movement” ER Threshold (0–1) Minimum efficiency a bar must have to count as movement. • Higher = only very “clean, one-direction” bars count. • Lower = more bars count. • Try: 0.55–0.65. (0.60 = balanced.) ATR Floor vs SMA(ATR) Requires range to be at least this many × average ATR. • Higher (e.g., 1.2) = demand bigger-than-usual ranges. • Lower (e.g., 0.9) = allow smaller ranges. • Try: 1.0 (above average). How history is averaged Recent Days Weight (per-day decay) Gives more weight to recent days. Example: 0.97 ≈ each day old counts ~3% less. • Higher (0.99) = slower fade (older days matter more). • Lower (0.95) = faster fade. • Try: 0.97–0.99. Laplace Prior Seen / Laplace Prior Hit “Starter counts” so early stats aren’t crazy when you have little data. • Higher priors = probabilities start closer to average; need more real data to move. • Try: Seen=3, Hit=1 (defaults). Min Samples (effective) Don’t highlight a slot unless it has at least this many effective samples (after decay + priors). • Higher = safer, but fewer highlights early. • Try: 3–10. When to highlight on the chart Min Probability to Highlight We shade/mark bars only if their slot’s historical movement probability is ≥ this. • Higher = pickier, fewer highlights. • Lower = more highlights. • Try: 0.45–0.60. Show Markers on Good Bins Draws a small square on bars that fall in a “good” slot (in addition to the soft background). Limit to market hours (optional) Restrict to Session + Session Only learn/score inside this time window (e.g., “0930-1600”). Uses the chart/exchange timezone. • Turn on if you only care about RTH. Range (chop) alerts Range START if ER ≤ Triggers range when efficiency drops below this level (price starts zig-zagging). • Higher = easier to call “range”. • Lower = stricter. Range START if ATR ≤ this × SMA(ATR) Also triggers range when ATR shrinks below this fraction of its average (volatility contraction). • Higher (e.g., 1.0) = stricter (must be at/under average). • Lower (e.g., 0.9) = easier to call range. Alerts on bar close If ON, alerts fire once per bar close (cleaner). If OFF, they can trigger intrabar (faster, noisier). Quick “what happens if I change X?” Want more highlighted times? ↓ Min Probability, ↓ ER Threshold, or ↓ ATR Floor (e.g., 0.9). Want stricter highlights? ↑ Min Probability, ↑ ER Threshold, or ↑ ATR Floor (e.g., 1.2). Want recent days to matter more? ↑ Recent Days Weight toward 0.99. On 4H/Daily, widen Minimum Bin (e.g., 60–240) and maybe lower Min Probability a bit.

Ema Adaptativa by JA Adaptive EMA Crossover Indicator The Adaptive EMA Crossover Indicator is a trend-following tool designed to dynamically adjust to different market timeframes. It combines short-, medium-, and long-term moving averages to identify shifts in momentum and potential trend reversals with enhanced clarity. The adaptive moving average automatically changes its sensitivity depending on the selected chart timeframe, allowing it to better align with the prevailing market structure. In parallel, two faster EMAs are used to detect crossovers that often precede strong directional moves. The indicator visually enhances the chart by: Coloring candles according to the current market bias (bullish, bearish, or neutral). Highlighting key crossover points with on-chart labels and markers. Displaying dynamic EMA lines that change color based on price interaction, helping traders quickly spot when the market transitions between strength and weakness. This makes it suitable for traders seeking clear visual cues for momentum shifts, trend confirmation, and early signal detection across multiple timeframes.

Indian + Evening Session HighlighterThis indicator visually highlights two key trading windows for Indian instruments according to IST: Indian Session: 9:00 AM to 11:30 PM IST is shaded light orange on the chart, representing the main domestic trading hours for stocks, indices, commodities, or derivatives. Evening Session: 5:00 PM to 10:30 PM IST is shaded light red, marking the commonly followed evening window, which often captures the impact of US and European market movements. The indicator automatically overlays these session backgrounds on your chart, helping you quickly identify when price action occurs during India’s core and evening trade windows. This allows traders to focus on strategies specific to these time intervals, identify session-based volatility, and avoid trading during less active periods. If the evening session overlaps with the Indian session, the colors are layered for visual clarity.​ It is ideal for intraday traders, option strategists, and anyone monitoring Indian market rhythms or US-linked volatility impacts on Indian assets. No inputs are required; simply apply the script and view distinct session highlights for improved timing and decision making.

BentoboxThe "Bentobox" indicator is a comprehensive, overlay-based trend-following system for TradingView. Its primary function is to identify the main market trend and provide potential buy and sell signals based on a customized version of the "Optimized Trend Tracker" (OTT) logic. It plots directly on the price chart, providing clear visual cues through a combination of lines, background highlighting, and signal labels. Core Components Support Line (Moving Average): This is the foundational calculation of the indicator. It is a moving average of the price (using the 'Source' input, default is close). The user can choose from eight different moving average types: SMA, EMA, WMA, TMA, VAR (a custom Variable MA), WWMA (Welles Wilder's MA), ZLEMA (Zero-Lag EMA), and TSF (Time Series Forecast). OTT Line (Main Trend Line): This is the indicator's main plot and the core of the trend-following logic. It functions as a dynamic, trailing stop-loss line that adjusts based on the "Support Line" (the selected MA) and a user-defined "Percent" value. In an uptrend, the line trails below the price and only moves up or sideways. In a downtrend, it trails above the price and only moves down or sideways. A crossover of the "Support Line" above or below this OTT line is what determines a change in the calculated trend. Visuals and Signals The indicator provides multiple visual aids and signal options: Trend Highlighter: Fills the background area between the price and the OTT line. By default, it's green when the "Support Line" is above the OTT line (uptrend) and red when it's below (downtrend). OTT Line Coloring: The OTT line itself can be set to change color (e.g., green for up, red for down) when the trend direction flips. Buy/Sell Signals: The user can enable three different types of "Buy" and "Sell" labels on the chart: Price/OTT Crossing: A signal appears when the price (src) crosses over or under the main OTT line. Support Line Crossing: A signal appears when the "Support Line" (the MA) crosses over or under the main OTT line. OTT Color Change: A signal appears at the moment the OTT line itself changes its calculated trend direction. User Inputs (Settings) The indicator is highly customizable through its settings: Source: The price data used for all calculations (e.g., Close, Open, HLC3). OTT Period: The lookback period (length) for the selected moving average. OTT Percent: The percentage value used to calculate the distance of the OTT line from the moving average. A smaller value makes it more sensitive to price changes, while a larger value creates a smoother, less responsive line. Moving Average Type: A dropdown menu to select one of the eight available MAs. Show/Hide Toggles: A series of checkboxes to enable or disable the "Support Line," the background "Highlighter," and all three types of buy/sell signals.

Multi-Mode Seasonality Map [BackQuant]Multi-Mode Seasonality Map A fast, visual way to expose repeatable calendar patterns in returns, volatility, volume, and range across multiple granularities (Day of Week, Day of Month, Hour of Day, Week of Month). Built for idea generation, regime context, and execution timing. What is “seasonality” in markets? Seasonality refers to statistically repeatable patterns tied to the calendar or clock, rather than to price levels. Examples include specific weekdays tending to be stronger, certain hours showing higher realized volatility, or month-end flow boosting volumes. This tool measures those effects directly on your charted symbol. Why seasonality matters It’s orthogonal alpha: timing edges independent of price structure that can complement trend, mean reversion, or flow-based setups. It frames expectations: when a session typically runs hot or cold, you size and pace risk accordingly. It improves execution: entering during historically favorable windows, avoiding historically noisy windows. It clarifies context: separating normal “calendar noise” from true anomaly helps avoid overreacting to routine moves. How traders use seasonality in practice Timing entries/exits : If Tuesday morning is historically weak for this asset, a mean-reversion buyer may wait for that drift to complete before entering. Sizing & stops : If 13:00–15:00 shows elevated volatility, widen stops or reduce size to maintain constant risk. Session playbooks : Build repeatable routines around the hours/days that consistently drive PnL. Portfolio rotation : Compare seasonal edges across assets to schedule focus and deploy attention where the calendar favors you. Why Day-of-Week (DOW) can be especially helpful Flows cluster by weekday (ETF creations/redemptions, options hedging cadence, futures roll patterns, macro data releases), so DOW often encodes a stable micro-structure signal. Desk behavior and liquidity provision differ by weekday, impacting realized range and slippage. DOW is simple to operationalize: easy rules like “fade Monday afternoon chop” or “press Thursday trend extension” can be tested and enforced. What this indicator does Multi-mode heatmaps : Switch between Day of Week, Day of Month, Hour of Day, Week of Month . Metric selection : Analyze Returns , Volatility ((high-low)/open), Volume (vs 20-bar average), or Range (vs 20-bar average). Confidence intervals : Per cell, compute mean, standard deviation, and a z-based CI at your chosen confidence level. Sample guards : Enforce a minimum sample size so thin data doesn’t mislead. Readable map : Color palettes, value labels, sample size, and an optional legend for fast interpretation. Scoreboard : Optional table highlights best/worst DOW and today’s seasonality with CI and a simple “edge” tag. How it’s calculated (under the hood) Per bar, compute the chosen metric (return, vol, volume %, or range %) over your lookback window. Bucket that metric into the active calendar bin (e.g., Tuesday, the 15th, 10:00 hour, or Week-2 of month). For each bin, accumulate sum , sum of squares , and count , then at render compute mean , std dev , and confidence interval . Color scale normalizes to the observed min/max of eligible bins (those meeting the minimum sample size). How to read the heatmap Color : Greener/warmer typically implies higher mean value for the chosen metric; cooler implies lower. Value label : The center number is the bin’s mean (e.g., average % return for Tuesdays). Confidence bracket : Optional “ ” shows the CI for the mean, helping you gauge stability. n = sample size : More samples = more reliability. Treat small-n bins with skepticism. Suggested workflows Pick the lens : Start with Analysis Type = Returns , Heatmap View = Day of Week , lookback ≈ 252 trading days . Note the best/worst weekdays and their CI width. Sanity-check volatility : Switch to Volatility to see which bins carry the most realized range. Use that to plan stop width and trade pacing. Check liquidity proxy : Flip to Volume , identify thin vs thick windows. Execute risk in thicker windows to reduce slippage. Drill to intraday : Use Hour of Day to reveal opening bursts, lunchtime lulls, and closing ramps. Combine with your main strategy to schedule entries. Calendar nuance : Inspect Week of Month and Day of Month for end-of-month, options-cycle, or data-release effects. Codify rules : Translate stable edges into rules like “no fresh risk during bottom-quartile hours” or “scale entries during top-quartile hours.” Parameter guidance Analysis Period (Days) : 252 for a one-year view. Shorten (100–150) to emphasize the current regime; lengthen (500+) for long-memory effects. Heatmap View : Start with DOW for robustness, then refine with Hour-of-Day for your execution window. Confidence Level : 95% is standard; use 90% if you want wider coverage with fewer false “insufficient data” bins. Min Sample Size : 10–20 helps filter noise. For Hour-of-Day on higher timeframes, consider lowering if your dataset is small. Color Scheme : Choose a palette with good mid-tone contrast (e.g., Red-Green or Viridis) for quick thresholding. Interpreting common patterns Return-positive but low-vol bins : Favorable drift windows for passive adds or tight-stop trend continuation. Return-flat but high-vol bins : Opportunity for mean reversion or breakout scalping, but manage risk accordingly. High-volume bins : Better expected execution quality; schedule size here if slippage matters. Wide CI : Edge is unstable or sample is thin; treat as exploratory until more data accumulates. Best practices Revalidate after regime shifts (new macro cycle, liquidity regime change, major exchange microstructure updates). Use multiple lenses: DOW to find the day, then Hour-of-Day to refine the entry window. Combine with your core setup signals; treat seasonality as a filter or weight, not a standalone trigger. Test across assets/timeframes—edges are instrument-specific and may not transfer 1:1. Limitations & notes History-dependent: short histories or sparse intraday data reduce reliability. Not causal: a hot Tuesday doesn’t guarantee future Tuesday strength; treat as probabilistic bias. Aggregation bias: changing session hours or symbol migrations can distort older samples. CI is z-approximate: good for fast triage, not a substitute for full hypothesis testing. Quick setup Use Returns + Day of Week + 252d to get a clean yearly map of weekday edge. Flip to Hour of Day on intraday charts to schedule precise entries/exits. Keep Show Values and Confidence Intervals on while you calibrate; hide later for a clean visual. The Multi-Mode Seasonality Map helps you convert the calendar from an afterthought into a quantitative edge, surfacing when an asset tends to move, expand, or stay quiet—so you can plan, size, and execute with intent.

NLR-ADX Divergence Strategy Triple-ConfirmedHow it works Builds a cleaner DMI/ADX Recomputes classic +DI, −DI, ADX over a user-set length. Then “non-linear regresses” each series toward a mean (your choice: dynamic EMA of the series or a fixed Static Mid like 50). The further a value is from the mean, the stronger the pull (controlled by alphaMin/alphaMax and the γ exponent), giving smoother, more stable DI/ADX lines with less whipsaw. Optional EMA smoothing on top of that. Lock in values at confirmed pivots Uses price pivots (left/right bars) to confirm swing lows and highs. When a pivot confirms, the script captures (“freezes”) the current +DI, −DI, and ADX values at that bar and stores them. This avoids later drift from smoothing/EMAs. Check for triple divergence For a bullish setup (potential long): Price makes a Lower Low vs. a prior pivot low, +DI is higher than before (bulls quietly stronger), −DI is lower (bears weakening), ADX is lower (trend fatigue). For a bearish setup (potential short) Price makes a Higher High, +DI is lower, −DI is higher, ADX is lower. Adds a “no-intersection” sanity check: between the two pivots, the live series shouldn’t snake across the straight line connecting endpoints. This filters messy, low-quality structures. Trade logic On a valid triple-confirm, places a strategy.entry (Long for bullish, Short for bearish) and optionally labels the bar (BUY or SELL with +DI/−DI/ADX arrows). Simple flip behavior: if you’re long and a new short signal prints (or vice versa), it closes the open side and flips. Key inputs you can tweak Custom DMI Settings DMI Length — base length for DI/ADX. Non-Linear Regression Model Mean Reference — EMA(series) (dynamic) or Static mid (e.g., 50). Dynamic Mean Length & Deviation Scale Length — govern the mean and scale used for regression. Min/Max Regression & Non-Linearity Exponent (γ) — how strongly values are pulled toward the mean (stronger when far away). Divergence Engine Pivot Left/Right Bars — how strict the swing confirmation is (larger = more confirmation, more delay). Min Bars Between Pivots — avoids comparing “near-duplicate” swings. Max Historical Pivots to Store — memory cap.

This compression typically precedes explosive directional moves - the tighter the squeeze, the bigger the potential breakout. John Carter's TTM Squeeze concept (from "Mastering the Trade") combines this volatility compression with momentum direction to identify high-probability setups. ═══════════════════════════════════════════ ✨ WHAT'S NEW IN THIS VERSION ═══════════════════════════════════════════ 🎯 VISUAL STATUS BAR - Real-time squeeze state with clear labels - Color-coded backgrounds (Red = Building, Green = Fired Bullish, Orange = Fired Bearish) - Squeeze duration counter to gauge compression time 📊 ENHANCED HISTOGRAM - 4-color momentum gradient (Strong Bull/Weak Bull/Weak Bear/Strong Bear) - Instantly shows both direction AND strength - Background shading for current market state 🔥 SQUEEZE INTENSITY GAUGE - 5-dot pressure indicator showing compression tightness - Percentage display of squeeze strength - Only appears during active squeezes 📈 REAL-TIME METRICS PANEL - Current momentum value - Direction indicator (increasing/decreasing) - Strength assessment (strong/weak) 🔔 COMPREHENSIVE ALERTS - Squeeze started - Squeeze fired (bullish/bearish) - Momentum crossovers ═══════════════════════════════════════════ 🎮 HOW TO USE ═══════════════════════════════════════════ 1. WAIT FOR SQUEEZE • Red status bar appears • Intensity dots show compression level • Longer duration = potentially bigger move 2. WATCH FOR RELEASE • Status changes to "FIRED - BULLISH" or "FIRED - BEARISH" • Histogram color confirms momentum direction • Background highlights the event 3. MANAGE POSITION • Monitor momentum strength in metrics panel • Exit when histogram changes color (momentum reversal) • Use with trend/volume confirmation ═══════════════════════════════════════════ ⚙️ CUSTOMIZATION ═══════════════════════════════════════════ - Toggle status bar, metrics, intensity dots independently - Adjustable BB/KC parameters - Custom color schemes - Show/hide squeeze duration ═══════════════════════════════════════════ 🙏 CREDITS ═══════════════════════════════════════════ Original TTM Squeeze concept: John F. Carter Original indicator code: LazyBear (@LazyBear) This builds on LazyBear's excellent implementation of the TTM Squeeze Momentum indicator, adding modern visual elements and real-time dashboards for improved usability. Original indicator: "Squeeze Momentum Indicator " ═══════════════════════════════════════════ ⚠️ DISCLAIMER ═══════════════════════════════════════════ This indicator is for educational purposes. Always use proper risk management and combine with other forms of analysis. No indicator guarantees profitable trades. ═══════════════════════════════════════════ Best used on: Day trading timeframes (1m-15m) for momentum plays Combine with: Volume analysis, trend filters, support/resistance levels

DTCC RECAPS Dates 2020-2025This is a simple indicator which marks the RECAPS dates of the DTCC, during the periods of 2020 to 2025. These dates have marked clear settlement squeezes in the past, such as GME's squeeze of January 2021. ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------ The Depository Trust & Clearing Corporation (DTCC) has published the 2025 schedule for its Reconfirmation and Re-pricing Service (RECAPS) through the National Securities Clearing Corporation (NSCC). RECAPS is a monthly process for comparing and re-pricing eligible equities, municipals, corporate bonds, and Unit Investment Trusts (UITs) that have aged two business days or more . At its core, the Reconfirmation and Re-pricing Service (RECAPS) is a risk management tool used by the National Securities Clearing Corporation (NSCC), a subsidiary of the DTCC. Its primary purpose is to reduce the risks associated with aged, unsettled trades in the U.S. securities market . When a trade is executed, it is sent to the NSCC for clearing and settlement. However, for various reasons, some trades may not settle on their scheduled date and become "aged." These unsettled trades create risk for both the trading parties and the clearinghouse (NSCC) because the value of the underlying securities can change over time. If a trade fails to settle and one of the parties defaults, the NSCC may have to step in to complete the transaction at the current market price, which could result in a loss. RECAPS mitigates this risk by systematically re-pricing these aged, open trading obligations to the current market value. This process ensures that the financial obligations of the clearing members accurately reflect the present value of the securities, preventing the accumulation of significant, unmanaged market risk . Detailed Mechanics: How Does it Work? The RECAPS process revolves around two key dates you asked about: the RECAPS Date and the Settlement Date . The RECAPS Date: On this day, the NSCC runs a process to identify all eligible trades that have remained unsettled for two business days or more. These "aged" trades are then re-priced to the current market value. This re-pricing is not just a simple recalculation; it generates new settlement instructions. The original, unsettled trade is effectively cancelled and replaced with a new one at the current market price. This is done through the NSCC's Obligation Warehouse. The Settlement Date: This is typically the business day following the RECAPS date. On this date, the financial settlement of the re-priced trades occurs. The difference in value between the original trade price and the new, re-priced value is settled between the two trading parties. This "mark-to-market" adjustment is processed through the members' settlement accounts at the DTCC. Essentially, the process ensures that any gains or losses due to price changes in the underlying security are realized and settled periodically, rather than being deferred until the trade is ultimately settled or cancelled. Are These Dates Used to Check Margin Requirements? Yes, indirectly, this process is closely tied to managing margin and collateral requirements for NSCC members. Here’s how: The NSCC requires its members to post collateral to a clearing fund, which acts as a mutualized guarantee against defaults. The amount of collateral each member must provide is calculated based on their potential risk exposure to the clearinghouse. By re-pricing aged trades to current market values through RECAPS, the NSCC gets a more accurate picture of each member's outstanding obligations and, therefore, their current risk profile. If a member has a large number of unsettled trades that have moved against them in value, the re-pricing will crystallize that loss, which will be settled the next day. This regular re-pricing and settlement of aged trades prevent the build-up of large, unrealized losses that could increase a member's risk profile beyond what their posted collateral can cover. While RECAPS is not the only mechanism for calculating margin (the NSCC has a complex system for daily margin calls based on overall portfolio risk), it is a crucial component for managing the specific risk posed by aged, unsettled transactions. It ensures that the value of these obligations is kept current, which in turn helps ensure that collateral levels remain adequate. -------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Future dates of 2025: - November 12, 2025 (Wed) - November 25, 2025 (Tue) - December 11, 2025 (Thu) - December 29, 2025 (Mon) The dates for 2026 haven't been published yet at this time. The RECAPS process is essentially the industry's way of retrying the settlement of all unresolved FTDs, netting outstanding obligations, and gradually forcing resolution (either delivery or buy-in). Monitoring RECAPS cycles is one way to track the lifecycle, accumulation, and eventual resolution (or persistence) of failures to deliver in the U.S. market. The US Stock market has become a game of settlement dates and FTDs, therefore this can be useful to track.

No-Trade Zones UTC+7This indicator helps you visualize and backtest your preferred trading hours. For example, if you have a 9-to-5 job, you obviously can’t trade during that time — and when backtesting, you should avoid those hours too. It also marks weekends if you prefer not to trade on those days. By highlighting no-trade periods directly on the chart, you can easily see when you shouldn’t be taking trades, without constantly checking the time or date by hovering over the chart. It makes backtesting smoother and more realistic for your personal schedule.

Session Streaks [LuxAlgo]The Session Streaks tool allows traders to identify whether a session is bullish or bearish on the chart. It also shows the current session streak, or the number of consecutive bullish or bearish sessions. The tool features a dashboard with information about the session streaks of the underlying product on the chart. 🔶 USAGE Analyzing session streaks is commonly used for market timing by studying the number of consecutive sessions over time and how long they last before the market changes direction. We identify a bullish session as one in which the closing price is equal to or greater than the opening price, and a bearish session as one in which the closing price is below the opening price. Each session is labeled according to its bias (bullish or bearish) and the number of consecutive sessions of the same type that conform the current streak. 🔹 Dashboard The dashboard at the top shows information about the current session. Under the "Streaks" header, historical information about session streaks is displayed, divided into bullish and bearish categories. Number: Total number of streaks. Median: The average duration of those streaks. We chose the median over the mean to avoid misrepresentation due to outliers. Mode: The most common streak duration. As the image shows, for this particular market, there are more bullish streaks than bearish ones. Bullish streaks have an average duration that is longer than that of bearish streaks, and both have the same most common streak duration. If the current session is bullish and the median streak duration for bullish sessions is three, then we could consider scenarios in which the next two sessions are bullish. 🔶 DETAILS 🔹 Streaks On Larger Timeframes On timeframes lower than or equal to Daily, the tool identifies each consecutive session, but this behavior changes on larger timeframes. On timeframes larger than daily, the tool identifies the last session of each bar. Let's use the chart in the image as a reference. At the top of the image, there is a daily chart where each session corresponds to each candle. One candle equals one day. In the middle, we have a weekly chart where each session is the last session of each week, which is usually Friday for the Nasdaq 100 futures contract. The levels and labels displayed correspond to the last session within each candle, which is the last day of each week. The levels and labels on the monthly chart correspond to the last session of each month, which is the last day of each month. 🔹 Gradient Style Traders can choose between two different color gradients for the session background. Each gradient provides different information about price behavior within each session. Horizontal: Green indicates prices at the top of the session range and red indicates prices at the bottom. Vertical: Green indicates prices that are equal to or greater than the open price and red indicates prices that are below the open price of the session. 🔶 SETTINGS 🔹 Dashboard Dashboard: Enable or disable the dashboard. Position: Select the location of the dashboard. Size: Select the dashboard size. 🔹 Style Bullish: Select a color for bullish sessions. Bearish: Select a color for bearish sessions. Transparency: Select a transparency level from 100 to 0. Gradient: Select a horizontal or vertical gradient.
