Vortex MTFUnderstanding Vortex Indicator (VI)
The vortex indicator was first developed by Etienne Botes and Douglas Siepman who introduced the concept in the January 2010 edition of “Technical Analysis of Stocks & Commodities.” The vortex indicator is based on two trendlines: VI+ and VI-.
What is the Vortex Indicator (VI)?
A vortex indicator (VI) is an indicator composed of two lines - an uptrend line (VI+) and a downtrend line (VI-). These lines are typically colored green and red respectively. A vortex indicator is used to spot trend reversals and confirm current trends.
Vortex Indicator Calculations
The calculation for the indicator is divided into four parts.
1. True range (TR) is the greatest of:
Current high minus current low
Current high minus previous close
Current low minus previous close
2. Uptrend and downtrend movement:
VM+ = Absolute value of current high minus prior low
VM- = Absolute value of current low minus prior high
3. Parameter length (n)
Decide on a parameter length (between 14 and 30 days is common)
Sum the last n period’s true range, VM+ and VM-:
Sum of the last n periods’ true range = SUM TRn
Sum of the last n periods’ VM+ = SUM VMn+
Sum of the last n periods’ VM- = SUM VMn−
4. Create the trendlines VI+ and VI-
SUM VMn+/SUM TRn = VIn+
SUM VMn-/SUM TRn = VIn−
Repeating this process daily forms the VI+ and VI- trendlines.
The traditional application of using VI- and VI+ crossovers can result in a number of false trade signals when price action is choppy. Increase the number of periods used in the indicator to reduce this, for example, using 25 periods instead of 14.
What is MTF?
Multiple Time Frame Analysis is the technique of analyzing several time frames of the same asset before entering a trade. This type of analysis is best done using a top-down approach, i.e. starting at a higher time frame and working your way down, via several lower time frames, until the execution time frame is reached where a trade could be entered. Traders who use this technique usually look at 3 or 4 different time frames to identify the general trend and find the best entries. They minimize their risk and improve the odds of success simply by taking the bigger picture into account. It can easily be combined with any trading strategy.
Time frames are usually several times apart. For example a day trader who trades hourly charts, could analyse the weekly (high time frame), the daily (7 times smaller), the 4 hour (6 times smaller) and finally the hourly time frame (execution time frame, 4 times smaller). TradingView has a chart layout feature with multiple charts per layout, so you can analyse an asset on multiple time frames under one tab in your browser.
Summary
With MTF, you can see the Vortex indicator values for a specific time period without changing the graph time period.

Multi-Timeframe Configuration DemoThis is a developer friendly solution to the current PineScript limitation of not being able to easily configure presets for multiple timeframes.
If you're developing multi-timeframe strategies then you've no doubt done battle with built-in `input` function which only allows for a single default value. You've probably come up with all kinds of fancy workarounds, including messy hardcoding, and even gritting your teeth and patiently reentering all the necessary values each time you refresh the chart or change the timeframe. The last one is my personal favourite.
As you can see in the code below we have defined a `usePresets` condition which tells the script to use our preset configuration, otherwise the default `input` values will be used. If `usePresets` is false then we use our presets which are defined in a (fairly) easy to read condition chain with the help of some basic timeframe utility functions.
Obviously this is nothing groundbreaking, but its helped me clean up my scripts a bit, so hopefully it will help you too.
pip hunter momentum extremeThis indicator gives a score to the momentum of a market in a percentage term based on a combination of measurements, this can be used on any time frame, on any instrument to identify if the current trend has enough momentum to see it carry on further this will help eliminate fomo and also help you to identify reversals in the chart at the right time so you can eliminate exposure to a market about to reverse, there is 4 levels to this indicator you have a strong bullish trend denote by green bars the weaker bullish trend denoted by the olive coloured bars, a weak bearish trend which is given in maroon bars and a strong bearish trend which gives red bars you will also note the 2 horizontal boundary lines these are not overbought and oversold bounds like in most indicators but actually indicate whether there is sufficient momentum in the market as the idea is that in strong momentum you want it to be above or below this line to give you confidence there is momentum available to ride.
There are also 7 coloured bars 3 top and 4 on the bottom the 6 green and red ones denote the direction of a heiken ashi candle its attached to reading from top to bottom defaults are 1hr 2hr 4hr 8hr 12hr daily if they are green then the candle is bullish if red the candle is bearish .
The bottom bar is a final momentum confluence when it is white we have a bearish bias and when it is purple we have a bullish bias

Strategy Follow Line MTF Any MM AverageThe objective is only to evaluate different configurations of the indicator "Follow Line MTF Any MM Average".
The strategy does not have position management, it's very basic, this indicator should be used to see trend, range zones, evaluate the best areas to enter the market, use higher time frames to confirm a direction can be useful.
I do not recommend using only this indicator to trade, because you can lose all your money if you do not know what you are doing.
I hope you find it useful.

Highs & Lows of Last [x] Bars===========
Highs & Lows of Last Bars
===========
We have found this indicator invaluable over the past few years - whether you prefer to trade Crypto, Forex, Commodities or something else this indicator could prove really useful. It's always nice to know the highs and lows of the last Week or Month, the problem being the information is only really relevant at the start or end of that chosen time period; throughout the mid-section of that time period the chart will either be displaying irrelevant information or info that has been/is being re-painted. Not good!
Our Highs & Lows of Last Bars Indicator will remove this re-painting problem and display up-to-date information from higher time frames without compromising the integrity of your current chart period.
-----------
Most high & low finder indicators will use, (for example), a 'W' or 'M' as their higher TF to get HTF results - we do things just a little bit differently, it's like this:
Most other High/Low Indicators:
~ MON 1st (get high/low value from 'W' TF) ~
~ MON 8th (get new data and plot from 'W' TF)
etc. - This leads to gaps in the data, re-painting and missing lots of potential mid-week trades.
Our High & Low of Last Bars:
~ MON 1st (get high/low value from LAST 7 DAYS) ~
~ TUE 2nd (get high/low value from LAST 7 DAYS) ~
etc.
This provides a much smoother High/Low plot with more relevant information. You can clearly see areas of support and resistance, updated on the LTF chart using data from a HTF.
Because we've included 2 TF's you can use simultaneously you can see when the lower TF touches the Higher TF this (generally, but not always!) means there's a breakout coming!
Hope this is useful to you guys!
Good Luck and Happy Trading!
MTF Lag-Less RasterChart (Spectrogram/HeatMap)I present yet another state-of-the-art "MTF Lag-Less RasterChart" employing PSv4.0. Simply describing how this indicator works, the bottom of the indicator pane is most reactive and is highly effective at identifying reversal points quickly once they occur, while the upper portion of the indicator commonly shows enduring trends. This may be my finest multi-timeframe heatmap indicator that I have created so far, complete with multiple stunning gradient color schemes. I'm unsure if I will be able to pack any more tech into these RasterCharts. This may exclude additional algorithms or polychromatics I may discover later on that are worthy of other RasterChart releases. One last thing, this is a companion indicator to my "Lag-Less Rainbow Ribbon" indicator, because the heavily modified base algorithms are nearly identical.
I once again would like to personally thank Dr . John Ehlers for inspiring me to ponder into the realm of heatmap technology and all it has to offer. Your mathemagical splendor is most appreciated! You're a divine inspiration to the algorithmic trading community and forever shall be.
The MTF capabilities include seconds, minutes, and days. If the time frame settings are shorter in time than the current sampling interval, a warning notification will be appropriately displayed. I included a horizontal rule to approximately gauge at what level you may wish to have before entering/exiting a trade upon identifying a trend change. This gizmo functions on all assets on time frames ranging from one second bars up to the "All" chart having monthly bars.
Lastly, I have included so many color scheming techniques that I couldn't demonstrate all of them above. This indicator has what I would term as enhanced "predator" vision. For those of you who have witnessed these movies, you may understand what I have built. This indicator additionally includes a color morphing control to perfectly adjust the gradients to your visual liking, on any time frame whether it be seconds or daily chart preferences. The use of this indicator is just like any of my other RasterCharts or heatmap indicators found on the internet, except it has the greatest versatility I have accomplished as of yet.
Features List Includes:
"Source" selection
MTF controls for seconds, minutes, and days
Adjustable horizontal rule to differentiate between more reactive aspects of turning point fluctuations in the lower portion of the chart (visible above)
Window aperture control
Adjustable heatmap brightness control
Visual color scheme techniques (a few of many are displayed above)
Color gradient morphing
Color inversion control
This is not a freely available indicator, FYI.

The comments section below is solely just for commenting and other remarks, ideas, compliments, etc... regarding only this indicator, not others. When available time provides itself, I will consider your inquiries, thoughts, and concepts presented below in the comments section, should you have any questions or comments regarding this indicator. When my indicators achieve more prevalent use by TV members, I may implement more ideas when they present themselves as worthy additions. As always, "Like" it if you simply just like it with a proper thumbs up, and also return to my scripts list occasionally for additional postings. Have a profitable future everyone!
Smooth HA / Hull MA / MTF===========
Smooth HA / Hull MA / MTF
===========
A combination of a Smoothed Heikin Ashi Chart Line and a Hull MA Line, paints a "Long" or "Short" alert when the Hull MA changes color - editable settings for the smoothing of HA data and Hull MA Length; you can also change the time frame used (must be the same or longer as the chart).
-----------
This indicator does a real good job at finding highs and lows (otherwise known as entry and exit points!) picking up on just about every large, decent swing and making the most from those big moves! The disadvantage of all Smoothed HA strategies are when times are choppy or ranging - given the natural lag of the indicator you can be sure in choppy times you'd be buying at the top and selling at the bottom almost every time ~ No indicator is perfect!
This Smooth HA/Hull MA indicator also has a built in MTF function (Multi-Time-Frame). This means you can be using a 1hr chart and set the indicator to a 4hr chart - generally any movements on a greater time frame will overcome any movements of the smaller time frame, so this is where you should be gathering data about which direction the market is moving - as always, follow the trend.
Hope (like always) this is of at least some use to some people.
Good Luck and Happy Trading!

MTF Trailing SL Strategy [QuantNomad]This is a Multi-Timeframe version of my Trailing SL Strategy.
Few weeks ago I published Trailing SL Strategy. There I used only basic Trailing SL to enter positions.
It worked pretty well so I tried to work on it a bit. I thought what if you can use the same ATR TSL on different timeframes and combine them into one signal.
In this strategy you can use only ATR stops and choose 3 other higher timeframes in addition to your current timeframe.
You'll see Trailing SL plotted on the chart form all these timeframes.
Entry Long position if all 4 time-frames agree on long signal.
Exit Long positions when at least 2 time-frames disagree on long signal.
Entry to Short position if all 4 time-frames agree on Short signal.
Exit from Short positions when at least 2 time-frames disagree on Short signal.
Here is the link to my basic Trailing SL Strategy:
Moving High & Low (2 Time Frames)===========
Moving High & Low (2 Time Frames)
===========
A simple line set indicator displaying the highs and lows of the previous selected timeframe upon a lower timeframe chart (2 line sets available).
e.g. Displaying the Highs & Lows of the last week and/or month on the 1D chart
-----------
Useful for 2 very different approaches to trading markets -
Finding Breakout Points:
For example - When candlestick closes above or below highs from previous week/month it may be a good time to go long as if the trend continues it may well go on for a long time making lots of pips along the way!
Finding SAR points within a range:
For example - When price starts ranging within horizontal line sets that aren't moving either way too much it may be a good idea to place long/short orders at appropriate key levels dictated by these range extremities, anticipating the price to reach these levels and deflect (Stop & Reverse) back the other way.
Either way we would recommend you NOT use this indicator alone, this is very much a confirmation tool or as an aid to find key levels of support/resistance.
Good Luck and Happy Trading!
Percent Change MtFThis plots the selected resolution's percent change from open to close. Easy way to check the previous period's range with less noise. Note the latest period is calculating on a bar that hasn't closed so it won't update unless you refresh/change timeframes to prevent incorrect reporting.

[KICK] Volatility HeatmapWith this indicator you can gauge the price volatility of an instrument across multiple timeframes in a very compact visualization. It allows you to find critically low areas of volatility and predict the likelihood of an imminent move or the conclusion of a move. While you can do this with other indicators, it is often easy to miss low volatility on timeframes that you don't normally survey.
Features:
Measure volatility using either Average True Range Percentile Rank (ATR-PR) or Historical Volatility Percentile (HVP)
Measure volatility from any other source (e.g. Volume, or custom series from another indicator) using HVP
2 Rendering Modes (Smooth and Distinct) as seen in the sample chart above
Ability to show current timeframe Volatility in bar chart above the heatmap
Get alerts when a certain number of timeframe levels (configurable) are showing critically low volatility (implying imminent move)
Get an alert when the current timeframe volatility level emerges from a critically low volatility zone (usually indicating the start of a significant move)
The bands on the map are 1x, 2x, 3x, 5x, 8x, 13x, 21x, and 34x the curent timeframe. The volatility measurements go (from lowest to highest): Lime, Blue, Dark Purple -> Light Purple (gradient), Magenta, Pink. If you see grey blocks/bands, these indicate that the instrument you are using does not have enough historical data to determine the volatility based on your timeframe and reference period. For example, if you are using a reference period of 100 and are on the daily view, to render the bottom-most band (x34) you would need around 3400 days of data (over 9 years).
You can use this indicator in multiple ways. My favorite way personally is to look for areas that have multiple consecutive timeframes showing low volatility warnings and then enter when the highest of those timeframes turns back to purple. Use other methods, analysis, or indicators to determine direction (or just straddle P.A. with market stops). If I am scalping, then I will generally mostly watch the "current timeframe" and get alerts when it emerges from low volatility.
