TASC 2023.12 Growth and Value Switching System█ OVERVIEW
This script implements a rotation system for trading value and growth ETFs, as developed by Markos Katsanos and detailed in the article titled 'Growth Or Value?' in TASC's December 2023 edition of Traders' Tips . The purpose of this script is to demonstrate how short-term momentum can be employed to track market trends and provide clarity on when to switch between value and growth.
█ CONCEPTS
The central concept of the presented rotation strategy is based on the observation that the stock market undergoes cycles favoring either growth or value stocks. Consequently, the script introduces a momentum trading system that is designed to switch between value and growth equities based on prevailing market conditions. Specifically tailored for long-term index investors, the system focuses on trading Vanguard's value and growth ETFs ( VTV and VUG ) on a weekly timeframe.
To identify the ETF likely to outperform, the script uses a custom relative strength indicator applied to both VTV and VUG in comparison with an index ( SPY ). To minimize risk and drawdowns during bear markets, when both value and growth experience downtrends, the script employs the author's custom volume flow indicator (VFI) and blocks trades when its reading indicates money outflow . Positions are closed if the relative strength of the current open trade ETF falls below that of the other ETF for two consecutive weeks and is also below its moving average. Additionally, the script implements a stop-loss when the ETF is trading below its 40-week moving average, but only during bear markets.
The script plots the relative strengths of the value and growth equities along with the signals triggered by the aforementioned rules. Information about the current readings of the relative strength and volume flow indicators, along with the current open position, is displayed in a table.
█ CALCULATIONS
The script uses the request.security() function to gather price data for both equities and the reference index. Custom relative strength and volume flow indicators are calculated based on the formulas presented in the original article. By default, the script employs the same parameters for these indicators as proposed in the original article for VTV and VUG on a weekly timeframe.

Gorb DNAIntroduction:
Gorb DNA is a versatile indicator using classic technical analysis components such as moving averages, stochastic oscillator, and histogram blending call/put flow analysis with our proprietary DNA algorithm. This indicator is designed to provide traders with useful market direction, volume, and momentum change visual cues.
Overview:
The Gorb DNA Indicator isn't just another momentum tool; it's a complex integration of innovative market analysis techniques.
By combining moving averages, stochastic oscillator, with proprietary algorithms, this indicator offers a multi-layered view of market trends, by merging call/put flow analysis with traditional market flow assessment.
This is designed for all kinds of traders, using a simple method to deliver visual changes in flow, volume, and momentum.
Core Features: Call/Put Flow & DNA
Call/Put Flow Analysis: This component examines the strength of market buying and selling pressures. It analyzes call (buying) and put (selling) flows using price range movements, providing insights smoothed over a defined period for analysis of market sentiment.
DNA Algorithm: A central feature of this indicator, the DNA algorithm utilizes a specialized moving average and oscillator technique to discern market trends. It presents an innovative approach, calculating the difference between bullish and bearish indicators to offer a detailed analysis of market momentum.
Visualization and Color Coding: The indicator employs a color-coded system for ease of interpretation, with distinct colors indicating different market conditions: white for upward/bullish movement and purple for downward/bearish movement. This feature translating complex data into a visual format that is simple to understand.
How Call/Put Flow Works:
Moving averages are used with volume and candlestick highs/lows over a specific range to help determine the overall flow. It then plots a colored line area that looks like a colored wave using just two colors to provide traders with a visual of the current market flow. This can help traders identify changes in sentiment with simple color cues.
How DNA Works:
A stochastic oscillator is used to measure the current price level relative to its price over a specific range period to analyze the momentum for the two DNA strands. Additionally moving averages are used to confirm trend and identify any divergences relative to the momentum. This is then plotted as two lines(DNA Strands) following the same color scheme as Call/Put Flow. When momentum is picking up in a specific direction, the lines will change colors and cross each other, this gives a visual of momentum now being fully on one side until it starts to change colors and flip that direction.
Custom Algorithm Elements:
Gorb DNA isn't just common tools combined into one indicator. It includes proprietary algorithmic elements tailored to enhance technical analysis and timing. These are the reasons what set this indicator apart from common momentum, sentiment, and volume methods.
We recommend experimenting with these features to choose what best suits your trading style.
Settings:
All skill-level friendly presets, easy to enable features with one-click
Call Flow: allows the user to plot a colored area that looks like waves showing increases/decreases in bullish volume (not to be followed blindly)
Put Flow: allows the user to plot a colored area that looks like waves showing increases/decreases in bearish volume (not to be followed blindly)
DNA Strand 1: allows the user to plot one of the algorithm lines to visualize momentum direction (not to be followed blindly)
DNA Strand 2: allows the user to plot one of the algorithm lines to visualize momentum direction (not to be followed blindly)
DNA Strength: allows the user to a histogram displaying momentum volume bars in the background
Flow Threshold: allows users to plot a dotted line to identify when call/put flow is now above average flow range
All colors are changeable for the user to customize to their liking
Call/Put Flow & DNA Demonstration
In the image below, we can see a basic illustration of how these core features function.
As stated above, call/put flow carefully monitors changes in moving averages, volume, and price action. If the market sentiment is shifting one direction, the call/put flow will plot those changes. If market is bullish, call flow should rise and put flow should decrease. The same goes for the opposite if the market is bearish.
As is the same for the DNA strands, if markets momentum is becoming bullish, the lines will change color and then cross to signify a change in momentum and the call flow in the background should match this change. This creates two layers of confluence in an easy understandable visual method.
Using Call/Put Flow
In the image below, we disabled everything but call flow to demonstrate usage.
On the left side of the image, you can see call flow matched price increase, then started to decline. This created a flow divergence, identifying a possible change in price action coming. This happened once flow crossed back below the threshold line and price then beginning to move lower. On the right side of the image, you can see call flow rising and price increasing. This is a good confluence showing there is bullish sentiment building in the market.
In this next image, we disabled everything but put flow to demonstrate usage.
The left side shows a put flow divergence. Put flow is slowly rising just like price is, this can help a trader identify a possible shift in sentiment coming. And on the right side, we have put flow rising above the threshold line and price beginning to decrease. Now we have confluence of bearish sentiment building in the market.
The image below shows only call & put flow enabled, to display what the above two images combined look like.
As you can see in the image above, these flow visuals help identify the underlying market sentiment. And when they cross, it leads to a change in price action in the direction of the sentiment over the threshold line.
Using DNA Strands
The image below has just DNA strands enabled to demonstrate usage.
On the left is a box highlighting bearish momentum cross. In the circles is the change in momentum shifting from bullish to bearish. The move gets stronger as the DNA strands get closer to cross over signifying strength in the move. On the right side is a box highlighting a bullish momentum cross. The circles again, show the change from bearish to bullish momentum. Like previously said, the move gets stronger as the DNA strands get closer to crossing over, signifying strength in that direction.
The next image shows call/put flow and DNA strands enabled for a full complete picture.
The circles labeled (1) are showing the change in momentum from bullish to bearish. Circle (2) shows call flow decreasing and put flow rising above calls. Finally the arrow points to the DNA strands crossing over and put flow rising above the threshold line. This is 3 levels of easy visual confluence showing a change in sentiment, volume, and momentum to the downside.
The next image will be showing the bullish side with call/put flow and DNA strands enabled.
The circles that are labeled (1), show the visual change in momentum on the DNA strands from bearish to bullish. Circle (2) is the crossing of call flow over put flow and the arrow points to the DNA strands crossing over and call flow above the threshold line. Three simple to use visual confluences to identify change in sentiment, volume, and momentum to the upside.
Conclusion:
Our goal is to provide a unique, yet simple approach to market sentiment & momentum analysis. It's a tool developed for traders seeking user-friendly and easy to use tools that provide easy visual insights of market dynamics. We believe in simplicity, effectiveness, and creating tools to support decision making for all traders.

RISK DISCLAIMER
All content, tools, scripts & education provided by Gorb Algo are for informational & educational purposes only. Trading is risky and most lose their money, past performance does not guarantee future results.
Absolute Momentum (Time Series Momentum)Absolute momentum , also known as time series momentum , focuses on the trend of an asset's own past performance to predict its future performance. It involves analyzing an asset's own historical performance, rather than comparing it to other assets.
The strategy determines whether an asset's price is exhibiting an upward (positive momentum) or downward (negative momentum) trend by assessing the asset's return over a given period (standard look-back period: 12 months or approximately 250 trading days). Some studies recommend calculating momentum by deducting the corresponding Treasury bill rate from the measured performance.
Absolute Momentum Indicator
The Absolute Momentum Indicator displays the rolling 12-month performance (measured over 250 trading days) and plots it against a horizontal line representing 0%. If the indicator crosses above this line, it signifies positive absolute momentum, and conversely, crossing below indicates negative momentum. An additional, optional look-back period input field can be accessed through the settings.
Hint: This indicator is a simplified version, as some academic approaches measure absolute momentum by subtracting risk-free rates from the 12-month performance. However, even with higher rates, the values will still remain close to the 0% line.
Benefits of Absolute Momentum
Absolute momentum, which should not be confused with relative momentum or the momentum indicator, serves as a timing instrument for both individual assets and entire markets.
Gary Antonacci , a key contributor to the absolute momentum strategy (find study below), emphasizes its effectiveness in multi-asset portfolios and its importance in long-only investing. This is particularly evident in a) reducing downside volatility and b) mitigating behavioral biases.
Moskowitz, Ooi, and Pedersen document significant 'time series momentum' across various asset classes, including equity index, currency, commodity, and bond futures, in 58 liquid instruments (find study below). There's a notable persistence in returns ranging from one to 12 months, which tends to partially reverse over longer periods. This pattern aligns with sentiment theories suggesting initial under-reaction followed by delayed over-reaction.
Despite its surprising ease of implementation, the academic community has successfully measured the effects of absolute momentum across decades and in every major asset class, including stocks, bonds, commodities, and foreign exchange (FX).
Strategies for Implementing Absolute Momentum:
To Buy a Stock:
Select a Look-Back Period: Choose a historical period to analyze the stock's performance. A common period is 12 months, but this can vary based on your investment strategy.
Calculate Excess Return: Determine the stock's excess return over this period. You can also assume a risk-free rate of "0" to simplify the process.
Evaluate Momentum:
If the excess return is positive, it indicates positive absolute momentum. This suggests the stock is in an upward trend and could be a good buying opportunity.
If the excess return is negative, it suggests negative momentum, and you might want to delay buying.
Consider further conditions: Align your decision with broader market trends, economic indicators, or fundamental analysis, for additional context.
To Sell a Stock You Own:
Regularly Monitor Performance: Use the same look-back period as for buying (e.g., 12 months) to regularly assess the stock's performance.
Check for Negative Momentum: Calculate the excess return for the look-back period. Again, you can assume a risk-free rate of "0" to simplify the process. If the stock shows negative momentum, it might be time to consider selling.
Consider further conditions:Align your decision with broader market trends, economic indicators, or fundamental analysis, for additional context.
Important note: Note: Entering a position (i.e., buying) based on positive absolute momentum doesn't necessarily mean you must sell it if it later exhibits negative absolute momentum. You can initiate a position using positive absolute momentum as an entry indicator and then continue holding it based on other criteria, such as fundamental analysis.
General Tips:
Reassessment Frequency: Decide how often you will reassess the momentum (monthly, quarterly, etc.).
Remember, while absolute momentum provides a systematic approach, it's recommendable to consider it as part of a broader investment strategy that includes diversification, risk management, fundamental analysis, etc.

Alpha Momentum Trade - AMT (QUAD Financial)The "Alpha Momentum Trend" indicator was conceived by Tiago Friedrich and programmed by Conrado Villaça.
The indicator description applies to the daily chart. When used on other timeframes, the indicator also changes its signals based on the timeframe used.
It has five fields, from top to bottom:
1. "ATR Multiple MA" greater than multiple: shows how many candles the asset stayed 7 times the ATR (average true range) above the 50-period simple moving average (SMA) in the last 126 candles. The purpose is to identify the strength of the asset because the more times it stayed at this distance from the SMA 50, the greater the acceleration of its prices tends to be, indicating a high momentum asset. You can change the period of the SMA in the indicator settings.
2. ATR% Multiple from MA: shows the multiple of ATR that the asset is from the same SMA as in the upper field. The default is the SMA 50, and the indicator helps identify interesting regions to take profits from long positions. When the asset is more than 7 ATRs above the SMA 50, the asset is considered "stretched," and a correction or price consolidation becomes likely. For high beta assets with a very strong trend, you can use a multiple of 10 ATRs for this purpose.
3. ATR% Multiple from 52w Low: shows the multiple of ATR that the asset is in relation to the 52-week low price. The higher the number, the more the asset has risen relative to its volatility standards, indicating a stronger trend. For momentum traders, it's ideal for the asset to be at least 15 ATRs above the minimum for this period to ensure that it's in a strong uptrend and far from the lows.
4. Longest streak above SMA: within the last 126 candles, it shows the longest streak of days when the asset didn't close below a specific simple moving average. The default definition is with the 10-day SMA, but you can change it in the indicator settings. The more consecutive days the asset can stay above the SMA10, the sign that its trend is consistent and not very volatile, which is desirable. Ideally, an asset should have previously formed an uptrend by staying at least 20 consecutive days above the SMA10.
5. Longest streak above EMA: within the last 126 candles, it shows the longest streak of days when the asset didn't close below a specific exponential moving average. The default definition is with the 21-day EMA, but you can change it in the indicator settings. The more consecutive days the asset can stay above the EMA21, the sign that its trend is consistent and not very volatile, which is desirable. Ideally, an asset should have previously formed an uptrend by staying at least 35 consecutive days above the EMA21.
It's also possible to visualize on the chart the moving averages used for the calculation of the "ATR Multiple MA," "Longest streak above SMA," and "Longest streak above EMA". In the default configuration, this results in a simple 50-day moving average, a simple 10-day moving average, and an exponential 21-day moving average being displayed on the chart, respectively.
Kalman MomentumKalman Filter
The Kalman Filter is an algorithm used for recursive estimation and filtering of time-series data. It was developed by Rudolf E. Kálmán in the 1960s and has found widespread applications in various fields, including control systems, navigation, signal processing, and finance.
The primary purpose of the Kalman filter is to estimate the state of a dynamic system based on a series of noisy measurements over time. It operates recursively, meaning it processes each new measurement and updates its estimate of the system state as new data becomes available.
Kalman Momentum Indicator
This indicator implements the Kalman Filter to provide a smoothed momentum indicator using returns. The momentum in this indicator is calculated by getting the logarithmic returns and then getting the expected value.
The Kalman calculation in this indicator is used to filter and predict the next value based on the logarithmic returns expected value.
Here's a simplified explanation of the steps and how they are applied in the Script:
State Prediction: Predict the current state based on the previous state estimate.
Error Covariance Prediction: Predict the covariance of the prediction error.
Correction Step:
Kalman Gain Calculation: Calculate the Kalman gain, which determines the weight given to the measurement.
State Correction: Update the state estimate based on the measurement.
Error Covariance Correction: Update the error covariance.
In this Script, the Kalman Filter is applied to estimate the state of the system, with two state variables.
When the Kalman Momentum is above 0, there is positive momentum or positive smoothed expected value.
When the Kalman Momentum is below 0, there is negative momentum or negative smoothed expected value.
How to Use:
Trend Identification:
Positive values of the Kalman Momentum Indicator indicates positive expected value, while negative values suggest negative expected value.
You can look for changes in the sign of the indicator to identify potential shifts in market direction.
Volatility Analysis:
Observe the behavior of the indicator during periods of high and low volatility. Changes in the volatility of the Kalman Momentum Indicator may precede changes in market conditions.
Filtering Noise:
The Kalman Filter is known for its ability to filter out noise in time series data. Use the Kalman Momentum Indicator to filter out the noise in momentum to catch the trend more clearly.
Squeezes:
At time there may be squeezes, and these are zones with low volatility. What could follow after these zones are expansions and huge trending moves.
Indicator Settings:
You can change the source of the calculations.
There is also a lookback for the log returns.
Understanding Expected Value in Trading:
The Expected Value is a fundamental concept that shows the potential outcomes of a trading strategy or individual trade over a series of occurrences. It is a measure that represents the average outcome when a particular action is repeated multiple times.
Images of the indicator:
CoffeeShopCrypto 3pl MAThe CoffeeShopCrypto 3pl MA indicator is a technical analysis tool that uses three different moving averages to identify trends in the price of an asset. The three moving averages have lengths of 12, 26, and 50. If these numbers sound familiar its because they are based off the standard of the MACD indicator, and can be either simple moving averages (SMA) or exponential moving averages (EMA), depending on user preference.
The following is plotted on the chart
The fast EMA/SMA (based on the 12-period length) in yellow.
The mid EMA/SMA (based on the 26-period length) in gray.
The slow EMA/SMA (based on the 50-period length) in either green or red, depending on whether the current close price is above or below the Overall Trend MA.
In addition to the moving averages, the indicator also calculates the MACD (Moving Average Convergence Divergence), and uses it to color the bars based on the momentum of the asset.
The MACD is calculated using two user-defined lengths (fast and slow), as well as a user-defined smoothing length for the signal line. The oscillator and signal line can be either SMA or EMA, and the colors of the MACD bars are based on whether the histogram is growing or falling, and whether it is above or below the zero line.
Overall, this indicator provides traders with a comprehensive tool for understanding the trend of an asset, as well as the momentum behind that trend. The moving averages provide a clear visual representation of the trend, while the MACD bars give insight into the strength of that trend and potential shifts in momentum.
---------------LONG ENTRY----------------
MA1 above MA2 and Overall trend = Green
IF RSI is above its midline you are confirmed for a long entry
-----------Short Entry--------------
MA1 below MA2 and Overall trend = Red
IF RSI is below its midline you are confirmed for a short entry

The scanner is comprised of an intuitively designed 3-in-1 tool that tracks the key metrics that drive markets. Each use advanced algorithms to gather information from multiple data points, distilled into one simplified view.
***** TREND SCANNER *****
The first indicator featured on the chart is the Trend Scanner, this allows you to track price action across the wider market. Instantly see pattern shifts and emerging trends; when the market moves, you move with it.
***** MOMENTUM SCANNER *****
The second is the Momentum Scanner which offers a realtime representation of momentum shifts as they occur. This allows you to monitor false breakouts and catch the moves that matter.
***** VOLUME SCANNER *****
The third is the Volume Scanner which provides unique insight into where buy and sell volume is being placed across the market. It offers a further way of determining entry and exit points or simply confirmation that a trend is underway.
***** HOW IT WORKS *****
1. The scanner surveys the market looking for strengths and weaknesses in Trend, Momentum or Volume.
2. It displays the underlying strength or weakness as a series of dots with up to six green dots showing strength and up to six red dots showing weakness.
3. Lighter colored dots are displayed where the strength of the trend, momentum or volume is lesser; if a dot is missing this is a sign of market neutrality.
4. All scanners have a sensitivity setting plus a volatility filter which can be adjusted according to your style of trading and the underlying instrument (full details below).
5. The background can be set to color-fill when the majority of dots are coloured either red or green, with higher values denoting greater strength or greater weakness.
6. Alerts can be configured in the same way as the background to provide both entry and exit signals (further details below).
***** INSTRUMENTS *****
Due to computational restraints, the scanner is split across two different indicators. This one features GBP, JPY, NZD and USD; the other AUD, CAD, CHF and EUR. Both form part of the same package.

***** SETTINGS OVERVIEW *****
The scanner features the following customizable settings:
~~ Trend Settings ~~
▶ Trend Filter - adjusting this will allow you to focus on short term trends (most suitable for scalping), medium or long term (best for swing trading).
▶ Countertrend Strength - increases the sensitivity of weaker vs stronger countertrends. As countertrends are trends that run against the main trend, this will assist in detecting the strength of a pullback or reversal and allow you to either hold, exit or reverse the trade with confidence.
~~ Momentum Settings ~~
▶ Momentum Filter - increase or decrease the sensitivity of the momentum scanner. Increase to avoid periods of low or weak momentum, decrease to highlight stronger surges in momentum.
~~ Volume Settings ~~
▶ Volume Filter - increase or decrease the sensitivity of the volume scanner. Increase to avoid periods where buy and sell volume can potentially cancel each other out.
~~ Volatility Settings ~~
▶ Volatility Offset - use this to fine tune the volatility filter. A higher value generally delays the volatility filter allowing for confirmation of stronger trends, a lower value will detect trend, momentum or volume movement sooner but may be less accurate.
▶ Each scanner has its own setting allowing you to adjust how you monitor the underlying volatility for each.
▶ As with all settings, we recommend adjusting this to your style of trading, instrument and timeframe.
~~ Alerts ~~
Alerts can be configured to send notifications when anything from 4-6 bullish or bearish dots are showing. Exit markers can be configured when anything from 2+ dots are revealed. This adds an extra layer of sensitivity for traders who appreciate complete control over their trade.

The third is the Volume Scanner which provides unique insight into where buy and sell volume is being placed across the market. It offers a further way of determining entry and exit points or simply confirmation that a trend is underway.
***** HOW IT WORKS *****
1. The scanner surveys the market looking for strengths and weaknesses in Trend, Momentum or Volume.
2. It displays the underlying strength or weakness as a series of dots with up to nine green dots showing strength and up to nine red dots showing weakness (nine data points in total).
3. Lighter colored dots are displayed where the strength of the trend, momentum or volume is lesser; if a dot is missing this is a sign of market neutrality.
4. All scanners have a sensitivity setting plus a volatility filter which can be adjusted according to your style of trading and the underlying instrument (full details below).
5. The background can be set to color-fill when the majority of dots are coloured either red or green, with higher values denoting greater strength or greater weakness.
6. Alerts can be configured in the same way as the background to provide both entry and exit signals (further details below).
***** INSTRUMENTS *****
Gold & Silver Scanner Pro works effortlessly with any of the XAG and XAU major or minor crosses:

***** SETTINGS OVERVIEW *****
The scanner features the following customizable settings:
~~ Trend Settings ~~
▶ Trend Filter - adjusting this will allow you to focus on short term trends (most suitable for scalping), medium or long term (best for swing trading).
▶ Countertrend Strength - increases the sensitivity of weaker vs stronger countertrends. As countertrends are trends that run against the main trend, this will assist in detecting the strength of a pullback or reversal and allow you to either hold, exit or reverse the trade with confidence.
~~ Momentum Settings ~~
▶ Momentum Filter - increase or decrease the sensitivity of the momentum scanner. Increase to avoid periods of low or weak momentum, decrease to highlight stronger surges in momentum.
~~ Volume Settings ~~
▶ Volume Filter - increase or decrease the sensitivity of the volume scanner. Increase to avoid periods where buy and sell volume can potentially cancel each other out.
~~ Volatility Settings ~~
▶ Volatility Offset - use this to fine tune the volatility filter. A higher value generally delays the volatility filter allowing for confirmation of stronger trends, a lower value will detect trend, momentum or volume movement sooner but may be less accurate.
▶ Each scanner has its own setting allowing you to adjust how you monitor the underlying volatility for each.
▶ As with all settings, we recommend adjusting this to your style of trading, instrument and timeframe.
~~ Alerts ~~
Alerts can be configured to send notifications when anything from 5-9 bullish or bearish dots are showing. Exit markers can be configured when anything from 2+ dots are revealed. This adds an extra layer of sensitivity for traders who appreciate complete control over their trade.
~~ Display Settings ~~
You have the ability to hide all colored dots and only show the background or, alternatively, hide the background and only show colored dots.

Zaree - FX Index RSI IndicatorDescription:
The "Zaree - FX Index RSI Indicator" (FIRI) is a technical analysis tool designed to provide insights into the relative strength of two selected currency indices using the Relative Strength Index (RSI). It allows traders to compare the RSI values of a primary currency index and a secondary currency index, helping them identify potential overbought and oversold conditions in the currency market.
Details of the Indicator:
The indicator calculates the RSI for both the primary and secondary currency indices based on the user's selections.
Traders can choose from a variety of currency indices to use as the primary and secondary indices for comparison.
The indicator offers settings for customizing the calculation of the RSI, including selecting the type of moving average (SMA, EMA, WMA, SMMA) and adjusting the length of the RSI and moving average.
Upper and lower RSI bands are displayed on the chart to highlight potential overbought and oversold conditions.
The RSI values and their corresponding moving average values are plotted on the chart, allowing traders to visually analyze the relative strength of the indices.
How to Use the Indicator:
Select the primary and secondary currency indices you want to compare from the provided dropdown menus. These indices will serve as the basis for RSI calculation.
Choose the type of moving average (SMA, EMA, WMA, SMMA) to use for RSI calculation and set the desired length for the moving average.
Decide whether you want to visualize the RSI and moving average values for the primary and secondary indices on the chart.
Observe the RSI values and moving averages plotted on the chart. The indicator's upper and lower bands can help you identify potential overbought (above the upper band) and oversold (below the lower band) conditions.
Pay attention to the intersections between the RSI values and the moving average lines. These intersections can provide insights into potential trend changes or reversals in the currency market.
Example of Usage:
Let's say you're a swing trader focusing on currency pairs involving the US Dollar (USD) and Euro (EUR). You want to compare the relative strength of the USD Index (USDINX) and the EUR Index (EURINX) to identify potential trading opportunities. Here's how you can use the FIRI indicator:
Select "USDINX" as the primary index and "EURINX" as the secondary index.
Choose "SMA" as the moving average type and set the RSI length to 14.
Enable the visualization of RSI values for both the primary and secondary indices.
Observe the chart to identify instances where the RSI values of the indices cross above the upper band (potential overbought) or below the lower band (potential oversold).
Look for intersections between the RSI values and the moving average lines. A bullish signal may occur when the RSI crosses above the moving average, indicating potential upward momentum, while a bearish signal may occur when the RSI crosses below the moving average, indicating potential downward momentum.
Remember that the FIRI indicator is a tool to assist you in your analysis. It's important to consider other technical and fundamental factors before making trading decisions.
Feel free to adjust the settings of the indicator based on your trading preferences and strategy. Keep in mind that no indicator is foolproof, and it's recommended to use the FIRI indicator in conjunction with other analysis techniques for a comprehensive trading approach.
Velocity Indicator [CC]The Velocity Indicator was created by Scott Cong (Stocks and Commodities Sep 2023, pgs 8-15). This is my variation of his formula designed to capture the overall velocity of the underlying stock by applying the typical velocity formula. This indicator is visually similar to a typical stochastic indicator but uses a different underlying calculation. This works well as a momentum indicator, and the values are completely unbounded, so the best ways to determine bullish or bearish trends is either by using a crossover or crossunder between the indicator and the midline or to buy or sell the indicator when it reaches a high or low point and starts to fall or rise respectively. For my default version, I used the zero line to help determine the bullish or bearish trends. I have also included multiple colors to differentiate between very strong signals and normal signals, so very strong signals are darker in color, and normal signals use lighter colors. Buy when the line turns green and sell when it turns red.
Let me know if there are any other indicators or scripts you would like to see me publish! I will have some more new scripts in the next week or so.
Anit Momentum IndicatorAnit Momentum Indicator: A Powerful Trend Continuation Tool for Long-Only Strategies
The "Anit Momentum Indicator" (AMI) is a powerful technical analysis tool designed to assist traders in identifying potential trend continuation opportunities in the financial markets. Unlike traditional trend reversal indicators, AMI is specifically crafted for long-only strategies, making it an ideal tool for traders seeking to capture sustained uptrends.
Concepts and Functionality:
1. Momentum Calculation:
The Anit Momentum Indicator begins by calculating the momentum of the closing price over a specified period. Momentum represents the rate of price change, offering clues about the strength and direction of price movements during the chosen duration.
2. RSI for Trend Continuation:
The script then applies the RSI to the previously computed momentum values. The RSI is a well-known oscillator used to measure the speed and magnitude of price changes. By utilizing the RSI on momentum data, the Anit Momentum Indicator gains a distinct advantage in gauging the strength of price momentum, leading to more accurate trend evaluations.
3. Rescaling for Better Visualization:
To enhance visual clarity and maintain consistent representation, the RSI on Momentum is rescaled to range from 0 to 100. This normalization ensures that the indicator's values remain within a fixed range, making it easier for traders to identify crucial overbought and oversold regions.
How to Use the Indicator:
Long-Only Strategy:
The AMI is most effective in long-only strategies. Traders can deploy the indicator to identify promising opportunities to go long on a stock or asset. A long position is established when the AMI crosses above 50, signaling a robust upward momentum.
Trend Continuation Confirmation:
The AMI's ability to capture trend continuation opportunities allows traders to stay invested in an uptrend for an extended period. As long as the AMI remains above 50, the uptrend is considered intact, and traders may continue to hold the position.
Higher Timeframe Advantage:
The AMI's effectiveness is further enhanced on higher timeframes. Longer timeframes provide a more reliable and sustained view of the underlying trend, giving traders greater confidence in their long-only strategies.
Conclusion:
The Anit Momentum Indicator is a valuable tool for traders pursuing trend continuation strategies, specifically long-only approaches. By leveraging the concept of momentum and RSI, the AMI helps traders identify and participate in sustained uptrends. With its focus on trend continuation rather than reversals, the AMI can be a key component in building successful long-only trading strategies, especially on higher timeframes. Traders can use this indicator to stay invested in robust uptrends, maximizing their profit potential while minimizing exposure to counter-trend moves by staying long till AMI value is greater than 50,it is better to stay away or exit from the asst class when AMI value is less than 50.
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.
[volfgang] WAVEA compass to the financial charts.
The Volfgang WAVE Indicator helps you to decode complex market trends and make informed decisions in your trading.
Quick Summary
The WAVE has a signal line which alternates between Red or Blue.
Red is bearish and Blue is bullish.
It turns Blue when the WAVE line crosses above the signal and holds for 1 bar.
it turns Red when the WAVE line crosses below the signal and holds for 1 bar.
(You can change the signal line’s length in the settings, the default is 3 which is suited towards Day Trading – For Swing Traders I recommend 4 or 5 – For Investors 6 to 9).
The WAVE line will change colour to alert you when price is potentially pivoting.
When the WAVE is WHITE, the trend is currently Bearish but could flip bullish soon.
When the WAVE is GREEN, the trend is Bullish and there is strong Bullish momentum.
When the WAVE is ORANGE, it means trend is bullish but there is danger of a Bearish Reversal.
When the WAVE is PINK it means there is strong Bearish Momentum.
WAVETrend Scanner
The WAVETrend Scanner can be enabled in the settings and gives you a quick overview of the current trend across 8 potential timeframes:
You can use this to make sure the trades you are taking on lower timeframes align with the current bias on higher term timeframes, thus ensuring a higher chance of success.
WAVE Colours
The background colour of the WAVE also changes according to the current trend across multiple timeframes. The scanner is constantly measuring the current trend across 7 timeframes;
When 4 timeframes line up Bullish, the WAVE is LIGHT BLUE (Cyan)
When 5 timeframes line up Bullish, the WAVE is DARK BLUE (Navy)
When 6+ timeframes line up Bullish, the WAVE is GREEN
When 4 timeframes line up Bearish, the WAVE is ORANGE
When 5 timeframes line up Bearish, the WAVE is RED
When 6+ timeframes line up Bearish, the WAVE is PINK
Divergence Checker & Buy/Sell Signals
The BUY and SELL Signals are represented by a BLUE or RED Histogram line that extends from the WAVE to the 0 Line.
A BUY signal shows when a Crossover occurs & there is a Bullish Diversion Present within the last 50 bars.
A SELL signal appears when a Crossunder occurs & there is Bearish Diversion present within the last 50 bars.
You can change the length of the Divergence Checker in the settings, default is 50 bars.
Under The Hood
The WAVE pulls information from multiple sources within a set period such as;
Close Price
Highest Price
Lowest Price
EMA
The script applies a set of complicated algebraic equations. Which essentially measures the and of recent price action.
Then it uses EMA's to measure from the and , whilst applying more weight to recent price action.
The functions then calculate more averages which measure the difference from and .
Next, it uses all of these calculated averages to create a value that represents the current WAVE condition. This calculation will determine whether the WAVE is in a bullish or bearish trend.
This sum is then smoothed out to get one more value, which is used to display the info box content that allows us to see exactly at what price the WAVE will keep rising or keep falling.
One final calculation also predicts the point at which the WAVE will flip trend. It uses similar calculations to the "Keep Rising/Falling" prediction function, but its aim is to predict the exact price at which the WAVE will cross.
What gives the WAVE indicator an edge over most Stochastic Indicators, is how it uses Pinescript's "request.security" function to pull information from multiple timeframes in order to generate plots, info data and colours to add much more relevant information to the chart which you can use to make informed trading decisions. This is what allows the WAVETrend Scanner to work.
The WAVE indicator is designed to work with all markets and asset types.

Access to these high-quality oscillators and tools can elevate your trading strategy, providing you with insightful market analysis and potential trading opportunities. In addition, these tools help traders and investors to identify and interpret various market trends, momentum, and volatility patterns more efficiently.
The Oscillator toolkit works in any market and timeframe for discretionary analysis and includes many oscillators and features:
█ Oscillators
WaveTrend Momentum
The WaveTrend Momentum oscillator is a significant component of the toolkit. It factors in both the direction and the momentum of market trends. The waves within this system are both quick and responsive, operating independently to offer the most pertinent insights at the most opportune moments. Their rapid response time ensures that traders receive timely information, which is essential in the fast-paced, dynamic world of trading.
Example of how to use the WaveTrend Momentum Oscialltor
The WaveTrend Momentum is proficient at identifying trend reversals and pullbacks, allowing traders to enter or exit trades at optimal moments.
Leading RSI
The Leading Relative Strength Index (RSI) is a type of momentum oscillator that is commonly used in technical analysis to predict price movements. As the name suggests, it is an advanced form of the traditional Relative Strength Index (RSI), and it provides traders with more timely signals for market entries and exits.
The Leading RSI works on similar principles but is designed to provide signals ahead of the traditional RSI. This is achieved through more advanced mathematical modeling and calculations, which aim to identify shifts in market momentum before they happen. It takes into account not only the current price action but also considers historical data in a way that can foresee changes in trend directions.
Example of how to use the Leading RSI
The Leading RSI is an enhanced version of the traditional Relative Strength Index, offering more timely indications of divergences and overbought or oversold market conditions.
Momentum Oscillator
This oscillator measures the amount that a security's price has changed over a given time span. It is an excellent tool for understanding the strength of a trend and its potential endurance. When the momentum oscillator rises, it suggests that the price is moving upwards and vice versa.
The Momentum Oscillator is an advanced technical analysis tool that helps traders identify the rate of change or the momentum of the market. It is typically used to determine the strength or speed at which the price of an asset increases or decreases for a set of returns. This oscillator is considered 'fast-moving' and 'sensitive' because it responds quickly to changes in price momentum. The fast-moving nature of this oscillator helps traders to get early signals for potential market entry or exit points.
The Momentum Oscillator analyzes the current price compared to the previous price and adds two additional layers of analysis: 'Buy & Sell moves' and 'Extremes.'
Buy & Sell Moves: This layer of the oscillator helps identify the buying and selling pressure in the market. This can provide traders with valuable information about the possible direction of future price moves. When there is high buying pressure (demand), the price tends to rise, and when there is high selling pressure (supply), the price tends to fall.
Extremes: This layer helps to identify extreme overbought or oversold conditions. When the oscillator enters the overbought territory, it could indicate that the price is at a high and could potentially reverse. Conversely, if the oscillator enters the oversold territory, it could suggest that the price is at a low and could potentially rebound.
Example of how to use the Momentum Oscillator
The Momentum Oscillator is a sensitive and fast-moving oscillator that adapts quickly to price changes while keeping track of the long-term momentum, making it easier to spot buying or selling opportunities in trends.
Bellcurves
The Bellcurves indicator is a powerful tool for traders that uses statistical analysis to help identify potential market reversals and key support and resistance levels by leveraging the principles of statistical analysis to measure market impulses. The concept behind this tool is the normal distribution, also known as the bell curve, which is a fundamental statistical concept signifying that data tends to cluster around the average or mean value. The "impulses" in the market context refer to significant price movements driven by a high volume of trading activity. These are typically sharp and swift moves either upwards (bullish impulse) or downwards (bearish impulse). These impulses often signify a strong sentiment in the market and can result at the beginning of a new trend or the continuation of an existing one.
In effect, the Bellcurve indicator is designed to filter out minor price fluctuations or 'noise,' allowing traders to focus solely on significant market impulses. This makes it easier for traders to identify key market movements.
Example of how to use the Bellcurve
The Bellcurves uses the principles of statistical analysis to identify significant market impulses and potential market reversals.
█ Why is this Oscillator Toolkit Needed?
The Oscillator Toolkit is a vital asset for traders for several reasons:
Insight into Market Trends: The Oscillator Toolkit provides valuable insight into current market trends. This includes understanding whether the market is bullish (rising) or bearish (falling), as well as identifying potential future price movements.
Identification of Overbought or Oversold Conditions: Oscillators like those in the toolkit can help traders identify when an asset is overbought (potentially overvalued) or oversold (potentially undervalued). This can signal potential market reversals.
Confirmation of Price Patterns: The oscillators in the toolkit can confirm price patterns and trends. For example, if a price pattern suggests a bullish trend, an oscillator can help confirm this by showing rising momentum.
Versatility Across Markets and Timeframes: The Oscillator Toolkit is designed to work across a variety of markets, including stocks, forex, commodities, and cryptocurrencies. It's also effective across different timeframes, from short-term day trading to longer-term investment strategies.
Timely Trade Signals: By providing real-time insights into market conditions and price momentum, the Oscillator Toolkit offers timely signals for trade entries and exits.
Enhancing Trading Strategy: Every trader has a unique approach to the market. The Oscillator Toolkit, with its suite of different oscillators, provides a robust set of tools that can be customized to enhance any trading strategy, whether it's a trend following, swing trading, scalping, or any other approach.
█ Any Alert Function Call
This function allows traders to combine any feature and create customized alerts. These alerts can be set for various conditions and customized according to the trader's strategy or preferences.
█ How are the Oscillators calculated? - Overview
The Toolkit combines many of our existing premium indicators and new technical analysis algorithms to analyze the market. This overview covers how the main features are calculated.
WaveTrend Momentum
The WaveTrend Momentum oscillator operates at its core by comparing the current price to previous prices. If the current price is higher than the previous price, the oscillator value will rise, indicating an uptrend. Conversely, if the current price is lower than the previous price, the oscillator value will fall, indicating a downtrend. To make it unique and useful normalized weighting functions are added.
Leading RSI
The Leading RSI is based on the traditional Relative Strength Index, with an added exploration function that takes into account historical price movements.
Momentum Oscillator
The Momentum oscillator measures how quickly the price is changing, on average, over a certain period, relative to the variability of the price over that same period. It gives higher values when the price is changing rapidly in one direction and lower values when the price is fluctuating or changing more slowly. In addition, other functions, such as market extremes and buying/selling pressure, are factored in.
Bellcurves
The Bellcurves assume that some common historical price data is normally distributed, and once these patterns or moves are found the in the price data, a Bellcurve is formed.
█ In conclusion , the Oscillator Toolkit is an advanced, versatile, and indispensable asset for traders across various markets and timeframes. This innovative collection includes different oscillators, including the WaveTrend Momentum, Leading RSI, Momentum Oscillator, and the Bellcurves Indicator, each serving a unique function in providing valuable insights into the market's behavior.

Banded Chikou Breakout — Quantifying Ichimoku MomentumTitle: Banded Chikou Breakout — Quantifying Ichimoku Momentum
Overview:
Banded Chikou Breakout (BCB) is a unique, algorithmic script designed to augment the capabilities of traders seeking substantial breakout opportunities. Constructed on the robust principles of the Ichimoku trading strategy, BCB is designed to quantify and filter the Chikou Span's significant breakouts above or below the price action. This script does not aim to replace the Ichimoku system; instead, it enhances it, providing an optimized tool for momentum trading.
Rationale:
Ichimoku traders often scrutinize the Chikou Span's position relative to price action to identify market trends. However, determining whether the Chikou Span is above or below due to a genuine trend or mere market noise can be challenging in choppy markets. BCB resolves this predicament by offering a unique way to interpret the Chikou Span's movement. It does so by quantifying the Chikou Span's momentum and utilizing Bollinger Bands to determine its significance. By effectively differentiating substantial movements from the insignificant, BCB can help traders better navigate the market and increase their potential for profitable trades.
How it Works:
BCB combines three key elements: a Momentum Script (simulating Chikou Span), a Bollinger Band Script, and a Timeframe Switcher, all working together to provide a refined trading perspective.
Momentum Script: Calculates the price difference between the current price and the price 'n' periods ago, transforming the Chikou Span into a quantifiable momentum value that signifies the strength and speed of a market move.
Bollinger Band Script: Computes a Simple Moving Average (SMA) around the momentum, plotting two 'bands' at a specified standard deviation from this SMA. This functionality allows traders to discern when the Chikou Span's momentum is abnormally high or low, signifying a potential significant breakout.
Timeframe Switcher: This feature lets traders apply the BCB script to a different timeframe from the one they are currently viewing. This capability can help traders identify higher timeframe breakouts and trade them with precision on the lower timeframe.
How to Use:
BCB is designed to complement the Ichimoku strategy for effective breakout identification.
Add the BCB script to your trading chart. It plots the momentum (yellow line) and Bollinger Bands (green lines) with the area between the bands shaded blue.
Utilize the Ichimoku strategy to identify larger and smaller timeframe trends.
Optional: Leverage the timeframe switcher to synchronize your trades with higher timeframe trends while operating on lower timeframes.
If the BCB momentum line crosses the upper Bollinger Band while the Ichimoku indicates a bullish trend, it signifies a potential significant upward breakout. Similarly, a cross below the lower band during a bearish trend could denote a significant downward breakout.
Remember, without the context provided by the Ichimoku system's trend analysis, BCB can yield false breakouts. It is, therefore, crucial to use these tools in tandem. I like to check for an Ichimoku trend on the 4H and 1H charts, and then use BCB on charts <60 minutes to capture trends with precision.
Entropy, Liquidity, and Momentum - ELMoELMo is a momentum trading strategy based on two concepts: entropy and liquidity
The core concept behind the strategy is twofold: trade based on reversals in momentum based on the strength of a trend, and trade when market liquidity is beneficial to the position.
Entries and exits are determined by first calculating Shannon entropy for the time series and applying various moving averages. Separately, the Hui-Heubel Liquidity Ratio (lhh) is calculated and applied as a filter. Finally, additional conditionals such as RSI are applied to reduce false entries.
Entropy is defined as the amount of 'randomness' in a system and in this application can be thought of as a measure of the strength or weakness of a trend. The main moving averages and visible components in ELMo represent the normalized entropy score of the 'close' value (0 is series minimum, 1 is maximum). lhh will measure illiquid/fragile markets with low values and liquid/resilient markets with a high value. In general, the strategy will prefer to enter long when liquidity is high and short when liquidity is low, based off of cross events in the displayed entropy moving averages. I have published lhh as a separate indicator but it is not required for this strategy to function.
Several settings can be configured inside the strategy, including long/short bias, lookback window, MA band lengths, RSI boundaries, and more, but I have tried to choose sensible defaults that work for a large variety of situations and equities. My preferred time scales are 1m 1h 4h 1d 1w 1mo but others may work fine. Trailing stops are implemented using configurable ATR values. Additional settings are available to limit entry times (default is set to US options market open/close), and backtesting start date.
The long strategy is generally more accurate than short. Since Pinescript does not have a way to manage long/short exposure in a hedged fashion, I prefer to run two separate instances of ELMo in long-only and short-only modes for signaling. I prefer to trade this strategy with a long bias using the short signals as indications of windows of weakness where hedging could be prudent.
SMI Momentum Bollinger Squeeze Signals - TradeUIMomentum Bollinger Squeeze Signals - TradeUI
The Squeeze Momentum Indicator (SMI) uses the principles of the Squeeze Indicator, which is a volatility indicator, and combines them with a momentum calculation to provide a more comprehensive view of the market.
The original Squeeze Indicator uses the relationship between the Bollinger Bands and Keltner Channels to identify periods of low volatility, known as "Squeezes", and potential breakout points. The SMI takes this one step further by adding a momentum calculation, making it a more dynamic tool for trading.
The momentum calculation is based on the rate of change of the asset's price. When the price increases rapidly, it signifies positive momentum, and when the price decreases rapidly, it signifies negative momentum.

This is all combined with a fast and slow momentum indicator based on the MACD.
The dots illustrate a slow/long-term momentum while the background color is the fast momentum.
Very useful indicator in my opinion to visualize the trend and momentum at the same time
Tradveller MomentumThis is the trend following + momentum startegy.
A momentum strategy is an investment approach that aims to capitalize on the continuation of existing market trends. It involves buying securities that have been performing well and selling or shorting those that have been underperforming, with the expectation that the strong performers will continue to do well, and the weak performers will continue to decline.
The core idea behind this strategy is that price momentum tends to persist over short to medium-term periods, and investors can profit from this by identifying and following trends. Momentum strategies can be applied to various asset classes, including stocks, bonds, commodities, and currencies.
There are different ways to measure and implement momentum strategies, such as:
Relative strength: Comparing the performance of a security or asset to a benchmark or its peers over a specific time frame.
Moving averages: Using moving averages (e.g., 50-day, 100-day, or 200-day) to identify trends and generate buy or sell signals.
Rate of change (ROC): Calculating the percentage change in price over a specified period to measure the speed and direction of price movements.
Trend-following indicators: Utilizing technical indicators such as Moving Average Convergence Divergence (MACD), Relative Strength Index (RSI), or Bollinger Bands to identify and follow trends.
Momentum strategies can be effective in both bull and bear markets. However, they are susceptible to sudden reversals in market trends, and thus, momentum investors need to be disciplined in following their strategy, managing risk, and adjusting their positions accordingly.
DCA Detective | v1.0BINANCE:FETBUSD
The DCA Detective | v1.0 strategy revolutionizes the realm of DCA (Dollar Cost Averaging) trading, integrating advanced trade initiation predicated on savvy Technical Analysis (TA) signals. This strategy's distinctive feature rests in its capacity to leverage TA signals or preset percentage levels to trigger safety orders, providing adaptability based on your preference. Bid farewell to rudimentary safety order placements.
The strategy incorporates a comprehensive array of parameters:
RSI Oversold Level - a predetermined level signaling a potential oversold condition where a price rebound may be imminent.
Divergence Lookback Period - this parameter specifies the duration over which the system scrutinizes for any disparity between price and RSI.
Minimum Bars Between Trades - this guarantees a specific interval between trades, thwarting excessive trading and promoting diversification over time.
Rate of Change (ROC) - a momentum-oriented technical indicator that gauges the percentage alteration in price between the current price and the price a certain number of periods back.
Stochastic Length and Oversold - parameters that delineate the Stochastic Oscillator, another momentum indicator that compares a particular closing price of a security to a spectrum of its prices over a specified period.
Higher Timeframe RSI Length and Oversold Level - for heightened precision, these parameters operate on lower timeframes, offering a wider outlook and aiding in the filtering of market noise.
The DCA Detective | v1.0 strategy deploys bullish divergence identified by the RSI and a crossover of the RSI over the oversold level as primary entry signals. Safety order conditions can be set to either Percentage or Smart, based on your preference. The "Smart" condition utilizes the same rules as the initial entry order to place safety orders.
The strategy also entails additional configuration settings such as the maximum safety orders, safety order price deviation, safety order volume scale, safety order step scale, and take profit percentage.
Main goal is to catch possible market bottom/dip.
In summary, the DCA Detective | v1.0 strategy proposes a sophisticated and nuanced approach to DCA trading. It taps into the potential of TA signals to initiate trades, while using safety orders as a risk management tool, with the intent to minimize possible losses and decrease overall time in trade. This strategy stands as a testament to refined trading tactics, crafted for those who endorse strategic investment and measured risk-taking.
Through webhook integration, the DCA Detective | v1.0 strategy can send signals to 3commas to initiate trades, adjust safety orders, and take profit at the designated percentages. This provides traders with a hands-off approach to trading, allowing them to focus on other areas of their portfolio or strategy while the DCA Detective | v1.0 strategy runs in the background.
So far, I haven't come across a good DCA strategy based on TA orders, so I created my own. I was troubled by my prolonged exposure to red bags, but with proper configuration, this strategy should get you out of the trade as soon as possible. I have managed to enter most of the good coins at an unbeatable average trade time and also eliminate the maximum trade time to less than 10 days !
