Quarterly Theory True Opens by Mr. ConsistentQuarterly Theory True Opens (MTF)
This indicator plots key institutional price levels known as "True Opens" based on the principles of Quarterly Theory, as taught by Trader Daye. It is designed to identify the start of Q2 manipulation cycles across yearly, monthly, weekly, daily, and intra-day session timeframes.
The levels are drawn as clean horizontal rays and are anchored to the 1-minute timeframe, ensuring they are perfectly accurate and consistent on ANY chart timeframe you view.
🎯 Core Concepts
Each line represents the "True Open" at the start of a new Q2 cycle:
📅 Yearly True Open: The open of the first trading day of April.
🗓️ Monthly True Open: The open of the second Monday of each month.
Weekly True Open: The open of the Monday 6:00 PM EST session.
🏙️ Daily True Open: The open at Midnight EST.
⏰ Session True Opens: The open at the start of the second 90-minute quarter of each session (1:30 AM, 7:30 AM, 1:30 PM, 7:30 PM EST).
✨ Key Features
Multi-Timeframe (MTF) Accuracy: Lines are anchored to the 1-minute open price, ensuring they remain perfectly consistent on any chart timeframe (e.g., the 7:30 AM open is the same on the 5min, 1-hour, and Daily charts).
Clean Horizontal Rays: Plots clean horizontal rays that extend forward, avoiding chart clutter. Old lines are automatically removed as new ones form.
Right-Aligned Labels: Text labels are positioned on the right edge of your screen, so they are always visible and never covered by price action.
Fully Customizable: Toggle the visibility of each True Open line (Yearly, Monthly, etc.) and their labels individually in the settings. You can also customize colors and line width.
New York (EST) Timezone: All calculations are hard-coded to the America/New_York timezone for consistency.
⚙️ How to Use
Use these levels as key points of interest for potential support, resistance, or areas where price may show a significant reaction.
Observe how price interacts with these levels after they are established.
Customize the indicator in the settings (⚙️ icon) to show only the levels relevant to your trading style.
⚠️ Troubleshooting: Lines Not Showing Correctly?
If the indicator lines don't seem to plot at the correct price levels when you first add it to your chart, it's almost always a scaling issue.
Hover over the indicator's name on your chart and click the three dots (...) for "More".
Scroll down to "Pin to Scale".
Select "Pin to Right Scale" (or whichever scale your price is on). The indicator levels must be pinned to the same scale as the price to display accurately.
If it is set to "No Scale," the levels will not reflect their true price values.
This tool was developed based on the public teachings of Trader Daye. All credit for the underlying concepts of Quarterly Theory belongs to him. This indicator is for educational and analytical purposes only.

BTC Regime Phase [HY|YC|GLI]The correlation between global liquidity and INDEX:BTCUSD has attracted a lot of attention. Building on this insight, I developed an indicator that not only tracks global liquidity but also integrates the high‑yield spread and yield‑curve slope to capture credit risk and growth expectations.
Essence and Logic
At its core, the Risk‑On Composite Z‑Score converts three macro factors global liquidity momentum, the US high‑yield spread and the slope of the US yield curve into standardized Z‑scores, weights them, and tracks moving‑average crossovers. Each factor has a rationale: high‑yield spreads are powerful business‑cycle indicators and often outperform other financial variables (Gertler & Lown, 2000). Yield‑curve steepness reflects investor optimism and prompts shifts toward riskier assets global liquidity drives cross‑border flows and risk sentiment (Goldberg, 2023; Lee, 2024). Combining these measures gives a composite signal that has historically aligned well with Bitcoin’s tops and bottoms. Usable also for other crypto coins: INDEX:ETHUSD CRYPTO:SOLUSD CRYPTO:LINKUSD
Limitations and My Current Model Outlook
I want to be transparent: the three model sections are highly correlated. Currently, the high‑yield spread and yield curve data come only from the US; I may add Euro or Japanese spreads later. I’m also aware that macro dynamics are evolving. Fiscal policy and political choices could shorten bear markets and make the current sell signals less relevant. In a stagflationary world, inflation‑adjusted liquidity may swing more violently and require an asset‑inflation adjustment. Yet, the model has captured Bitcoin’s tops and bottoms almost to the week—future patterns may rhyme, not repeat.
Questions and Ideas:
Do you think this model will still be useful as fiscal and monetary regimes shift?
Should I add a stagnation modulation perhaps real yields or inflation‑adjusted liquidity—to better capture a stagflation scenario?
Are there high‑yield spreads on TV beyond the US that I should include? (Euro and Japan indices do exist.)
Would it make sense to incorporate Bitcoin halving events or a stock‑to‑flow module?
The indicator is free to use. If it brings you value, you’re welcome to follow for updates. I appreciate your support and feedback. When you are interested in the source code, feel free to contact me for more details. When you feel like supporting me with some sats, contact me and I will give you a Lightning address. I am a student and that would help a lot – but please only if you can afford it!

Features: Users can enable or disable each component, adjust weights and choose a short‑tenor (1‑year or 2‑year) for the yield curve. The script automatically scales lookback windows based on the chart timeframe (daily, weekly or monthly). It offers visual plots of each Z‑score, the composite score, and smoothed moving averages, with background colours highlighting regimes and markers for entries and exits. Trade logic includes optional dip‑buy triggers when the composite falls below a threshold, Friday‑only execution on daily charts to reduce whipsaws. A trend table summarises current Z‑scores and their trends. Settings are tuned for BTC weekly data but should be adjusted for other assets or timeframes. Because some inputs (e.g., GLI weights) have limited historical data, long backtests may be less reliable when using on other Risk On Assets like NASDAQ:NDX NCDEX:COPPER

MeanRevert Matrix [StabTrading]MeanRevert Matrix is a sophisticated trading tool designed to detect when prices significantly deviate from their historical averages, signalling potential market trends and reversals.
Leveraging complex algorithms that incorporate human emotions and mean reversion theory, this indicator is the first stage in a comprehensive system for identifying market entry points. Its versatility allows it to be applied across all charts and timeframes, providing traders with clear visual cues for trend analysis and decision-making.
This indicator is purposefully straightforward, allowing traders to observe how the different algorithms work in confluence. The MeanRevert Matrix can be customized to fit individual trading styles, particularly in terms of aggressiveness, making it adaptable to various market conditions. Working in tandem with the FloWave Oscillator, it offers an additional layer of confluence, ensuring that trading signals are more reliable.
💡 Features
Reversal Zones - These zones are integral to the MeanRevert Matrix, highlighting areas where trader emotions and money flow suggest potential longer-term reversals. The lighter shaded zones indicate early-stage reversals, while darker shades signal stronger reversal potential. This feature is designed to help traders anticipate market shifts and prepare for them accordingly.
Localized Mean Reversion Signals - These signals are triggered when the price deviates significantly from the mean, unaffected by longer-term price movements. This localized algorithm helps traders focus on short-term market fluctuations without being influenced by broader trends.
Yellow Signals - These signals identify isolated overbought or oversold conditions. While they often indicate reversal points, they can also signal the beginning of accelerated buying or selling, giving traders early warning of potential market shifts.
Trading Style Customization - The MeanRevert Matrix allows traders to tailor their strategy by adjusting the indicator’s aggressiveness. A more aggressive setting will produce more frequent reversal signals, offering flexibility based on the trader’s risk tolerance and market outlook.
Noise Eliminator - This feature helps traders filter out market noise or manipulation by increasing the noise value. By removing unwanted or misleading signals, it ensures that traders are acting on the most reliable data.
📈 Implementing the System
Step 1 - Begin by observing the localized blue trend to identify reversal points below the mean. Green or red signals within this trend indicate that the price remains within the current market parameters, suggesting that a reversal may occur more quickly. Yellow signals, however, indicate that the trend is likely to continue, so it’s advisable to wait for clearer reversal zones to develop. To avoid misleading signals, consider using higher noise values.
Step 2 - Wait for the reversal zone algorithm to indicate a potential market reversal by showing either light or dark red/green colour. A lighter zone suggests that the overall trend is beginning to reverse, while a darker zone indicates a higher likelihood of reversal.
Step 3 - Once a reversal zone is identified, monitor the trend line for signals that the price is moving significantly away from the mean. This indicates a strong localized price movement that is poised for a reversal. At this stage, you can reduce the noise value and increase the aggressiveness of the trading style to capture more reversal signals.
🛠️ Usage/Practice
In the example above, the indicator is set with neutral aggression for buy signals and lower aggression for sell signals, reflecting the current bull market cycle
Red Reversal Zone - A bearish reversal zone emerges, followed by a darker bearish zone, indicating an increased probability of a trend reversal. The red signals show price reversion from the localized mean, but the absence of yellow signals suggests the reversion isn't abnormally aggressive, making this a good area to consider a short position.
Strong Reversal Opportunity - Similar to point 1, but this time a green signal appears within the bullish dark green zone, highlighting a strong reversal potential. Subsequent red signals suggest opportunities to take profits as the trend faces resistance.
Opportunity to Strengthen Long Position - Once again, the indicator shows a bullish reversal zone without yellow signals. This suggests an area of increased resistance at this price point, offering traders another chance to increase their long positions before the market enters the long bull cycle.
Excessive Buying Pressure - The price has deviated significantly from the mean, triggering a yellow signal. This indicates excessive buying pressure, suggesting the trend is likely to continue upward. Although not an immediate bearish area, the red sell signals suggest it could be a time to conservatively take partial profits.
Trend Weakening - As the trend slows down, bearish zones appear, indicating potential reversal points. As the market shows signs of losing upward momentum, this suggests an opportunity to reduce their long exposure or enter a short trade and take advantage of the correction in the bull cycle.
Potential for Additional Long Position - Despite the earlier sell signals, the overall uptrend remains strong. This presents an opportunity either to add to the long position or to take profits from a previous sell position. The strength of the upward trend suggests that the market may continue higher.
Abnormal Upward Momentum - Similar to points 4 and 5, the yellow signals indicate abnormal price action with aggressive upward momentum. As the trend corrects to a normal range, the price hitting a resistance level is confirmed by the appearance of red reversal zones, suggesting a potential pullback.
Sideways Market Signals - In a sideways market, the indicator shows signals that remain within the normal mean reversion range. These signals are not abnormal and suggest potential entry points for trades within a sideways market, indicating periods where the market lacks strong directional momentum.
🔶 Conclusion
With its seamless integration into various charts and timeframes, the MeanRevert Matrix stands as a reliable and adaptable tool, essential for navigating the complexities of modern markets. By following the implementation guidelines and leveraging its features, traders have the potential to effectively anticipate market movements and optimize their entry and exit points.
We developed this indicator to help traders enhance their understanding of market trends and achieve their trading objectives with greater precision.
Cyclic RegressionCyclic Regression is a new concept that uses Digital Signal Processing (DSP) to determine the regression of past and future cycles. This is a unique method of regression which has the ability to forecast into the future.
There are several ways to use this tool.
Firstly, it follows similar rules to moving averages and can be used to filter entries. Long entries should be considered when price action is above the line or the line direction is upwards. The opposite is applied for shorts, a downward direction or price action is below.
The regression line is also a strong SR (Support and Resistance) or trend line so traders can expect big moves when this line is broken or a pullback is made after the break.
Each new direction of regression signifies a new cycle so traders can plan for a possible big move when reaching the end of the line.
The Settings are not your typical length or lookback options:
The main modifier is the "Response" input, with this the frequency response for the signal processing can be adjusted. By default it is set at 5000 but this can be boosted to something like 10000 to tune it to bigger cycles.
The other modifiers include sensitivity which will fine tune the response, this can be use with in conjunction with threshold option which adjusts the threshold of the useable response.
There is also the ability to add an external sources to the signal using the source input box. This allows traders to include other sources of data such as volume or RSI.
TASC 2022.11 Phasor Analysis█ OVERVIEW
TASC's November 2022 edition Traders' Tips includes an article by John Ehlers titled "Recurring Phase Of Cycle Analysis". This is the code that implements the phasor analysis indicator presented in this publication.
█ CONCEPTS
The article explores the use of phasor analysis to identify market trends.
An ordinary rotating phasor diagram is a two-dimensional vector, anchored to the origin, whose rotation rate corresponds to the cycle period in the price data stream. Similarly, Ehlers' phasor is a representation of angular phase rotation along the course of time. Its angle reflects the current phase of the cycle. Angles -180, -90, +90 and +180 degrees correspond to the beginning, valley, peak and end of the cycle, respectively.
If the observed cycle is very long, the market can be considered trending . In his article, John Ehlers defined trending behavior to occur when the derived instantaneous cycle period value is greater that 60 bars. The author also introduced guidelines for long and short entries in a trending state. Depending on the tuning of the indicator period input, a long entry position may occur when the phasor angle is around the approximate vicinity of −90 degrees, while a short entry position may occur when the phasor angle will be around the approximate vicinity of +90 degrees. Applying these definitive guidelines, the author proposed a state variable that is indicated by +1 for a trending long position, 0 for cycling, and −1 for a trending short position (or out).
The phasor angle, the cycle period, and the state variable are made available with three selectable display modes provided for this TradingView indicator.
█ CALCULATIONS
The calculations are carried out as follows.
First, the price data stream is correlated with cosine and sine of a fixed cycle period. This produces two new data streams that correspond to the projections of the frequency domain phasor diagram to the horizontal (so-called real ) and vertical (so-called imaginary ) axis respectively. The wavelength of the cycle period input should be set for the midrange vicinities of the phasor to coincide with the peaks and valleys of the charted price data.
Secondly, the phase angle of the phasor is easily computed as the arctangent of the ratio of the imaginary component to the real component. The difference between the current phasor values and its last is then employed to calculate a derived instantaneous period and market state. This computation is then repeated successively for each individual bar over the entire duration of the data set.
ICTProTools | ICT Insight - Momentum Structures🚀 INTRODUCTION
The Momentum Structures Indicator builds upon the principles of ICT (Inner Circle Trader) and Smart Money Concepts (SMC) to give traders a clearer view of market dynamics. These methods reveal how institutional trading activity shapes price movements, particularly through different types of market liquidity.
The indicator is designed to provide traders with advanced insights into market dynamics by focusing on key price imbalances and higher-timeframe structures . By combining these elements, the indicator allows users to analyze price behavior across multiple timeframes, helping them anticipate potential liquidity pools and price reversals. The emphasis on price imbalances and liquidity zones makes it a versatile tool for both intraday and longer-term strategies, providing critical insights for understanding market cycles and potential turning points.
💎 FEATURES
Imbalance Bar Colors / Zones
Imbalances are fundamental components of the ICT methodology, highlighting areas where price accelerates, creating gaps that may indicate a lack of liquidity . These voids often point to potential reversal or continuation zones in the price action.
An imbalance typically arises when supply and demand are out of balance, resulting in a gap between price levels. Traders keep a close eye on these gaps, as they could present opportunities to enter trades when the price revisits them , as they suggest a strong institutional interest.
We can notice two types of imbalances… A Fair Value Gap (FVG) usually forms from three consecutive candles, defining the space between the wicks of the first and last candle. Conversely, a Volume Imbalance (VI) occurs when a gap appears between the opening and closing prices of two consecutive candles. When these imbalances align with FVGs, they offer a well-rounded framework for assessing market strength.
By analyzing both FVGs and VIs together, traders can gain valuable insight into potential price movements and better evaluate the likelihood of continuation or reversal.
This chart illustrates the Fair Value Gaps (FVG) and Volume Imbalances (VI) within the GBPUSD price action. The FVG Bar Color and FVG Zone represent the same Fair Value Gaps, and similarly, the VI Bar Color and VI Zone display the same Volume Imbalances. They highlight areas where rapid price movements have created gaps in the market. These gaps indicate potential zones for trade entries or exits as the price may return to fill them. As we can see on the chart, the major part of imbalances created has already been filled. They constitute really interesting Point of Interest (POI).
The 50% FVG line marks the midpoint of the gap, which is often considered an important level for price action. A clear example appears in the Bearish FVG on the top left, where price first filled it below the midline, creating a small reaction. The price then liquidated this "fake mitigation" by moving just above the midline before beginning its significant downward movement. This demonstrates the crucial role of imbalances and how precisely price interacts with them.
Traders can use this information to identify potential buying or selling opportunities based on the interaction of price with these gaps and volume imbalances, aiding in the development of their trading strategies.
PO3 Candles (Power of Three)
The Power of Three is a critical concept in the ICT methodology that analyzes Higher Timeframe (HTF) candles focusing on the opening price, high wick, low wick, and closing price. This framework helps traders understand the current market cycle, in three phases , and its trading implications.
Accumulation Phase: In this initial phase, the price consolidates around the opening price as the market gathers liquidity. This often signals that larger players are positioning for the next move.
Manipulation Phase: Represented by the candle wicks, this phase indicates the extreme points where liquidity grabs often occur. Observing these wicks helps traders identify the end of the accumulation phase and potential turning points.
Distribution Phase: The candle body reflects a decisive price movement in one direction , following accumulation and manipulation. Traders align with the direction of this phase to capture the “real candle move”.
Our indicator provides you with the valuable capability to integrate the True Day Range, as defined by ICT. This concept, rooted in institutional logic, defines a trading day as starting at 00:00 New York time. You can customize it to match your trading style and analysis needs.
You can also overlay imbalances (FVG and VI) directly onto PO3 Candles, seamlessly combining imbalance detection with high-timeframe price action. This approach gives you a sharper market perspective, uncovering potential turning points with greater clarity.
In summary, PO3 Candles help traders assess the market structure and identify cycle positions on HTF candles, enabling them to make more strategic trading decisions, which allows for better entry and exit timing, avoiding traps, and seizing the best opportunities to capture significant market moves.
This chart illustrates the application of the Power of Three concept to EURUSD price action, highlighting key phases of market behavior.
In this example, we observe the Daily candles, where a significant Bullish imbalance appears from previous days, forming a Fair Value Gap (FVG). Additionally, there’s a small Volume Imbalance (VI) at the candle's opening, signaling liquidity that the price needs to fill.
Now, focusing on the Weekly candle, we can clearly identify its phases. First, there's an accumulation phase around the opening price, which, as shown by the Daily candles, took some time to develop. Then, the manipulation phase occurs, signaled by the upper wick of the Weekly candle, which liquidates the previously created accumulation. It’s time to look for a potential selling position... Finally, the price falls, beginning to form its bearish body and completing the real move of the week.
This framework allows traders to better understand the market structure and make informed decisions based on the current cycle.
Standard Deviation (STD)
The Standard Deviation (STD) is a concept within the ICT methodology that focuses on identifying periods of consolidation within the market. Specifically, it examines the Central Bank Dealers Range (CBDR) , which occurs between 13:00 and 23:00 New York time. During this period, the market often exhibits consolidation , creating an environment where price action stabilizes before making significant moves.
This consolidation forms the basis of the Standard Deviation (STD) concept. This is based on the idea that the volatility observed during this consolidation phase can be used to anticipate future market volatility. Once this consolidation is identified, the STD framework duplicates the established range both above and below the consolidation area.
As price approaches these duplicated levels, it offers traders critical information on where to anticipate potential reactions. If the price nears the upper boundary of the consolidation, it suggests a potential reversal point, indicating an opportunity to consider selling. Conversely, if the price approaches the lower boundary, it may signal an opportunity to look for buying positions . This duplication could enable traders to determine potential high and low points for the trading day or week for example.
Finally, the Standard Deviation (STD) concept provides a valuable framework for identifying potential key reaction points in the market by leveraging consolidation within the CBDR. By duplicating these ranges, traders can anticipate significant price movements and refine their strategies.
This chart illustrates the Standard Deviation (STD) concept applied to EURUSD price action. The highlighted areas in blue indicate high duplications and low duplications derived from the consolidation identified during the Central Bank Dealing Range (CBDR), marked by the dark gray rectangle.
The high duplications represent potential resistance levels, suggesting areas where the price may encounter selling pressure, while the low duplications signify potential support levels, indicating where buying interest could emerge.
The annotations emphasize how price reacts at these duplicated levels, showing the critical role of the STD in determining where price movements may stall or reverse. In this example, the price responded perfectly to both an upward and a downward duplication, confirming that these levels could represent the day's high and low, an observation validated here. This highlights the precision of price movements, with the price stopping exactly at the full duplication levels (but we can not that the price could also have paused at the midline levels, indicated by the dashed gray lines).
This visualization helps traders anticipate potential reactions and align their strategies with market dynamics, ensuring informed decision-making based on established price behavior.

Economic Seasons [Daveatt]Ever wondered what season your economy is in?
Just like Mother Nature has her four seasons, the economy cycles through its own seasons! This indicator helps you visualize where we are in the economic cycle by tracking two key metrics:
📊 What We're Tracking:
1. Interest Rates (USIRYY) - The yearly change in interest rates
2. Inflation Rate (USINTR) - The rate at which prices are rising
The magic happens when we normalize these values (fancy math that makes the numbers play nice together) and compare them to their recent averages. We use a lookback period to calculate the standard deviation and determine if we're seeing higher or lower than normal readings.
🔄 The Four Economic Seasons & Investment Strategy:
1. 🌸 Goldilocks (↑Growth, ↓Inflation)
"Not too hot, not too cold" - The economy is growing steadily without overheating.
BEST TIME TO: Buy growth stocks, technology, consumer discretionary
WHY: Companies can grow earnings in this ideal environment of low rates and stable prices
2. 🌞 Reflation (↑Growth, ↑Inflation)
"Party time... but watch your wallet!" - The economy is heating up.
BEST TIME TO: Buy commodities, banking stocks, real estate
WHY: These sectors thrive when inflation rises alongside growth
3. 🌡️ Inflation (↓Growth, ↑Inflation)
"Ouch, my purchasing power!" - Growth slows while prices keep rising.
BEST TIME TO: Rotate into value stocks, consumer staples, healthcare
WHY: These defensive sectors maintain pricing power during inflationary periods
4. ❄️ Deflation (↓Growth, ↓Inflation)
"Winter is here" - Both growth and inflation are falling.
BEST TIME TO: Focus on quality bonds, cash positions, and dividend aristocrats
WHY: Capital preservation becomes key; high-quality fixed income provides safety
🎯 Strategic Trading Points:
- BUY AGGRESSIVELY: During late Deflation/early Goldilocks (the spring thaw)
- HOLD & ACCUMULATE: Throughout Goldilocks and early Reflation
- START TAKING PROFITS: During late Reflation/early Inflation
- DEFENSIVE POSITIONING: Throughout Inflation and Deflation
⚠️ Warning Signs to Watch:
- Goldilocks → Reflation: Time to reduce growth stock exposure
- Reflation → Inflation: Begin rotating into defensive sectors
- Inflation → Deflation: Quality becomes crucial
- Deflation → Goldilocks: Start building new positions
The blue dot shows you where we are right now in this cycle.
The red arrows in the middle remind us that this is a continuous cycle - one season flows into the next, just like in nature!
💡 Pro Tip: The transitions between seasons often provide the best opportunities - but also the highest risks. Use additional indicators and fundamental analysis to confirm these shifts.
Remember: Just like you wouldn't wear a winter coat in summer, you shouldn't use a Goldilocks strategy during Inflation! Time your trades with the seasons. 🎯

Crypto Flows [ETF|On-chain]The surge in Bitcoin and Ethereum spot ETFs has transformed how crypto is held and traded. By mid‑2025, U.S. spot Bitcoin ETFs already controlled roughly 1.28 million BTC, or about 6.5 percent of the circulating supply (Fosque, 2025). This accumulation has coincided with sharp price rallies and signals that regulated vehicles are absorbing a meaningful share of supply (Fosque, 2025; Wright, 2025). At the same time, on‑chain analytics show that exchange flows still influence markets: large inflows to exchanges often precede sell‑offs, whereas withdrawals to private wallets signal accumulation and reduced sell pressure (Singh, 2024; CryptoQuant, 2024). IntoTheBlock’s large‑holder inflow indicator even notes that spikes in whale buying frequently mark major bottoms (IntoTheBlock, 2022). I wanted to weave these pieces together, so I created this indicator.
Essence and logic
The script draws from two data streams: net flows into ETFs and net on‑chain flows from large holders, both scaled by the asset’s circulating market cap. ETF flows are aggregated across the ten largest INDEX:BTCUSD Bitcoin ETFs, the ten largest Ethereum INDEX:ETHUSD ETFs and the first CRYPTOCAP:SOL Solana ETF; each fund has its own checkbox and colour selection. On‑chain data uses IntoTheBlock’s large‑holder inflows and outflows, with dozens of coins available( CRYPTO:XRPUSD CRYPTOCAP:AVAX CRYPTOCAP:ADA CRYPTOCAP:LINK CRYPTO:DOGEUSD CRYPTOCAP:OTHERS ; if your coin isn’t shown in the dropdown you can manually enter its symbol. For each component, daily flows are converted into either a Z‑score or, by default, a percent‑of‑market‑cap series; users choose the weighting between ETF and on‑chain signals. These weighted series are summed into a composite, smoothed, and then two moving averages (a fast and a slow one) are applied to define bullish or bearish regimes. Because ETFs are a recent phenomenon, the early part of the composite is dominated by on‑chain flows; as ETF history lengthens, the fund‑flow component will become more influential. Trade signals are generated via moving‑average crossovers and optional dip triggers, and a trend table summarises current values and directions.
Why these components?
ETF flows reflect institutional adoption and supply absorption. Funds such as IBIT already hold about 744 000 BTC (roughly 3.3 percent of total supply), and cumulative ETF holdings have been growing faster than new coins are mined (Wright, 2025). Net inflows into these vehicles have tended to accompany rising prices and signal long‑horizon capital (Fosque, 2025). On‑chain flows, meanwhile, capture exchange liquidity dynamics. High inflows to exchanges often indicate that investors are preparing to sell, increasing tradable supply (Singh, 2024; CryptoQuant, 2024). Outflows into self‑custody suggest accumulation and reduced sell pressure, providing a bullish signal (Singh, 2024; CryptoQuant, 2024). IntoTheBlock points out that spikes in large‑holder inflows—whales moving coins into cold storage—have historically preceded price bottoms (IntoTheBlock, 2022). By weighting and standardising these flows relative to market cap, the composite aims to offer a more objective lens on risk‑on versus risk‑off regimes than price alone.
Limitations and outlook
ETFs a pretty new, so the data history is short. The list of tracked funds is currently limited to U.S. and European products; adding Asian or Canadian vehicles could provide a fuller picture. On‑chain flows can be noisy and occasionally give conflicting signals, and large‑holder data is not available for every crypto asset. The ETF and on‑chain components are also correlated through market cap, so equal weighting may amplify common trends. As macro conditions evolve and ETF redemption mechanisms change, the usefulness of fund flows could vary. I see this indicator as one tool among many, and I’m considering adding stablecoin flows, derivatives funding rates, or halving‑cycle adjustments. Suggestions are welcome.
Personal note
I’m a student who enjoys exploring the intersection of macro flows, on‑chain analytics and market psychology. This script is free to use. You can enable or disable each component, adjust weights, change the display mode and lookback, and select individual ETF tickers. If it brings you value, feel free to follow my work or reach out with feedback. I appreciate your support. Please remember that this indicator is for educational purposes and not investment advice. I built this indicator in addition to my Liquidity indicator, where I use Global M2, the yield curve, and the high-yield spread to define risk-on/risk-off regimes.

WD Gann: Close Price X Bars Ago with Line or Candle PlotThis indicator is inspired by the principles of WD Gann, a legendary trader known for his groundbreaking methods in time and price analysis. It helps traders track the close price of a security from X bars ago, a technique that is often used to identify key price levels in relation to past price movements. This concept is essential for Gann’s market theories, which emphasize the relationship between time and price.
WD Gann’s analysis often revolved around specific numbers that he considered significant, many of which correspond to squared numbers (e.g., 1, 4, 9, 16, 25, 36, 49, 64, 81, 100, 121, 144, 169, 196, 225, 256, 289, 324, 361, 400, 441, 484, 529, 576, 625, 676, 729, 784, 841, 900, 961, 1024, 1089, 1156, 1225, 1296, 1369, 1444, 1521, 1600, 1681, 1764, 1849, 1936). These numbers are believed to represent natural rhythms and cycles in the market. This indicator can help you explore how past price levels align with these significant numbers, potentially revealing key price zones that could act as support, resistance, or reversal points.
Key Features:
- Historical Close Price Calculation: The indicator calculates and displays the close price of a security from X bars ago (where X is customizable). This method aligns with Gann's focus on price relationships over specific time intervals, providing traders with valuable reference points to assess market conditions.
- Customizable Plot Type: You can choose between two plot types for visualizing the historical close price:
- Line Plot: A simple line that represents the close price from X bars ago, ideal for those who prefer a clean and continuous representation.
- Candle Plot: Displays the close price as a candlestick chart, providing a more detailed view with open, high, low, and close prices from X bars ago.
- Candle Color Coding: For the candle plot type, the script color-codes the candles. Green candles appear when the close price from X bars ago is higher than the open price, indicating bullish sentiment; red candles appear when the close is lower, indicating bearish sentiment. This color coding gives a quick visual cue to market sentiment.
- Customizable Number of Bars: You can adjust the number of bars (X) to look back, providing flexibility for analyzing different timeframes. Whether you're conducting short-term or long-term analysis, this input can be fine-tuned to suit your trading strategy.
- Gann Method Application: WD Gann's methods involved analyzing price action over specific time periods to predict future movements. This indicator offers traders a way to assess how the price of a security has behaved in the past in relation to a chosen time interval, a critical concept in Gann's theories.
How to Use:
1. Input Settings:
- Number of Bars (X): Choose the number of bars to look back (e.g., 100, 200, or any custom period).
- Plot Type: Select whether to display the data as a Line or Candles.
2. Interpretation:
- Using the Line plot, observe how the close price from X bars ago compares to the current market price.
- Using the Candles plot, analyze the full price action of the chosen bar from X bars ago, noting how the close price relates to the open, high, and low of that bar.
3. Gann Analysis: Integrate this indicator into your broader Gann-based analysis. By looking at past price levels and their relationship to significant squared numbers, traders can uncover potential key levels of support and resistance or even potential reversal points. The historical close price can act as a benchmark for predicting future market movements.
Suggestions on WD Gann's Emphasis in Trading:
WD Gann’s trading methods were rooted in several key principles that emphasized the relationship between time and price. These principles are vital to understanding how the "Close Price X Bars Ago" indicator fits into his overall analysis:
1. Time Cycles: Gann believed that markets move in cyclical patterns. By studying price levels from specific time intervals, traders can spot these cycles and predict future market behavior. This indicator allows you to see how the close price from X bars ago relates to current market conditions, helping to spot cyclical highs and lows.
2. Price and Time Squaring: A core concept in Gann’s theory is that certain price levels and time periods align, often marking significant reversal points. The squared numbers (e.g., 1, 4, 9, 16, 25, etc.) serve as potential key levels where price and time might "square" to create support or resistance. This indicator helps traders spot these historical price levels and their potential relevance to future price action.
3. Geometric Angles: Gann used angles (like the 45-degree angle) to predict market movements, with the belief that prices move at specific geometric angles over time. This indicator gives traders a reference for past price levels, which could align with key angles, helping traders predict future price movement based on Gann's geometry.
4. Numerology and Key Intervals: Gann paid particular attention to numbers that held significance, including squared numbers and numbers related to the Fibonacci sequence. This indicator allows traders to analyze price levels based on these key numbers, which can help in identifying potential turning points in the market.
5. Support and Resistance Levels: Gann’s methods often involved identifying levels of support and resistance based on past price action. By tracking the close price from X bars ago, traders can identify past support and resistance levels that may become significant again in future market conditions.
Perfect for:
Traders using WD Gann’s methods, such as Gann angles, time cycles, and price theory.
Analysts who focus on historical price levels to predict future price action.
Those who rely on numerology and geometric principles in their trading strategies.
By integrating this indicator into your trading strategy, you gain a powerful tool for analyzing market cycles and price movements in relation to key time intervals. The ability to track and compare the historical close price to significant numbers—like Gann’s squared numbers—can provide valuable insights into potential support, resistance, and reversal points.

Retracement Painpoints - Robinhodl21Description:
Retracement Painpoints is crafted to delve into the psychology of markets, particularly assets that are heavily driven by profit expectations and hype cycles. This tool excels when applied to assets experiencing strong hype phases. By visualizing downturns, you can assess which pullbacks are mere pauses in the hype cycle and which ones might signal the end of a trend or precede more significant declines. This insight allows you to identify critical points where market sentiment shifts, helping you make more informed trading decisions.
Main Features:
Focuses on assets influenced by hype and strong profit expectations. Helps distinguish between normal retracements and potential trend reversals.
Trend Detection Methods: Moving Average (MA): Utilizes a customizable MA period to determine market trends. Delta to All-Time High (ATH): Analyzes the percentage distance from the ATH to define trend direction. No Trend Detection: Allows for neutral analysis without trend bias.
Statistical Drawdown Analysis: Identifies local minima in drawdowns to calculate statistically significant levels. Option to calculate statistics based on trend direction (bullish/bearish). Adjustable variables for fine-tuning statistical levels.
Visualization: Plots drawdown curves with color-coding based on trend direction. Displays calculated statistical levels on the chart to highlight potential pain points.
Usage:
Set Parameters: Trend Detection Method: Choose your preferred method (MA, Delta to ATH, or None). MA Period: Define the period for the moving average (default: 420). Delta to ATH (%): Set the threshold for distance to ATH (default: 30%). Neutral Zone Delta to ATH (%): Define the neutral market zone (default: 60%). Stat Variables 1 & 2: Adjust these to select the desired statistical drawdown levels. Minimum Drawdown Threshold (%): Set the minimum drawdown to consider in analysis (default: 10%).
Interpretation: Drawdown Curve: Monitor percentage declines from local maxima. The color indicates the current trend direction: Green: Uptrend. Red: Downtrend. Gray: Neutral or no trend detection. Statistical Levels: Use the displayed levels as potential support or resistance zones, reflecting key psychological levels in the market.
Strategic Application: Identify crucial areas where the price has historically reversed. Assess whether a downturn is a typical retracement within a hype cycle or a sign of a more significant decline. Combine this tool with other technical analysis methods to enhance your trading strategy. Adjust settings based on market conditions and personal trading preferences.
Notes: The indicator is based on historical data and should not be used as the sole basis for trading decisions. It's recommended to test the indicator across various markets and timeframes. Past performance is not indicative of future results.

3Commas dollar cost averaging (DCA) QFL IndicatorAs investors, we often face the dilemma of willing high stock prices when we sell, but not when we buy. There are times when this dilemma causes investors to wait for a dip in prices, thereby potentially missing out on a continual rise. This is how investors get lured away from the markets and become tangled in the slippery slope of market timing, which is not advisable to a long-term investment strategy.
Skyrex developed a complex indicator based on dollar-cost averaging in Quick Fingers Luc's interpretation. It is a combinations of strategies which allows to systematically accumulate assets by investing scaled amounts of money at defined market cycle global support levels. Dollar-cost averaging can reduce the overall impact of price volatility and lower the average cost per asset thus even during market slumps only a small bounce is required to reach take profit.
The indicator script monitors a chart price action and identifies bases as they form. When bases are reached the script provides entry alerts. During price action development an asset value can go lower and in this way the script will perform safety entries alerts at each subsequent accumulation levels. When weighted average entry price reaches target profit the script will perform a take profit action alert.
Bases are identified as pivot lows in a fractal pattern and validated by an adjustable decrease/rise percentage to ensure significancy of identified bases. To qualify a pivot low, the indicator will perform the following validation:
Validate the price rate of change on drops and bounces is above a given threshold amount.
Validate the volume at the low pivot point is above the volume moving average (using a given length).
Validate the volume amount is a given factor of magnitude above is above the volume moving average.
Validate the potential new base is not too close to the previous range by using a given price percent difference threshold amount.
A fractal pattern is a recurring pattern on a price chart that can predict reversals among larger, more chaotic price movements. These basic fractals are composed of five or more bars. The rules for identifying fractals are as follows:
A bearish turning point occurs when there is a pattern with the highest high in the middle and two lower highs on each side.
A bullish turning point occurs when there is a pattern with the lowest low in the middle and two higher lows on each side.
Basic dollar-cost averaging approach is enhances by implementation of adjustable accumulation levels in order to provide opportunity of setting them at defined global support levels and Martingale volume coefficient to increase averaging effect. According to Quick Fingers Luc's principles trading principles we added volume validation of a base because it allows to confirm that the market is resistant to further price decrease.
The indicator supports traditional and cryptocurrency spot, futures , options and marginal trading exchanges. It works accurately with BTC , USD, USDT, ETH and BNB quote currencies. Best to use with 1H timeframe charts and limit orders. The indicator can be and should be configured for each particular asset according to its global support and resistance levels and price action cycles. You can modify levels and risk management settings to receive better performance
The difference between core script and this interpretation is that this strategy is specially designed for 3Commas bots
How to use?
1. Apply indicator to a trading pair your are interested in using 1H timeframe chart
2. Configure the indicator: change layer values, order size multiple and take profit/stop loss values according to current market cycle stage
3. Set up a TradingView custom alert using the indicator settings to trigger on a condition you are interested in
4. The indicator will send alerts when to enter and when to exit positions which can be applied to your portfolio using external trading platforms
5. Update settings once market conditions are changed using backtests on a monthly period

True Seasonal Pattern [tradeviZion]True Seasonal Pattern: Uncover Hidden Market Cycles
Markets have rhythms and patterns that repeat with surprising regularity. The True Seasonal Pattern indicator reveals these hidden cycles across different timeframes, helping you anticipate potential market movements based on historical seasonal tendencies.
What This Indicator Does
The True Seasonal Pattern analyzes years of historical price data to identify recurring seasonal trends. It then plots these patterns on your chart, showing you both the historical pattern and future projection based on past seasonal behavior.
Automatic Timeframe Detection: Works with Monthly, Weekly, and Daily charts
Historical Pattern Analysis: Analyzes up to 100 years of data (customizable)
Future Projection: Projects the seasonal pattern ahead on your chart
Smart Smoothing: Applies appropriate smoothing based on your timeframe
How to Use This Indicator
Add the indicator to a Daily, Weekly, or Monthly chart (not designed for intraday timeframes)
The indicator automatically detects your chart's timeframe
The blue line shows the historical seasonal pattern
Watch for potential turning points in the pattern that align with other technical signals
Seasonal patterns work best as a supporting factor in your analysis, not as standalone trading signals. They are particularly effective in markets with well-established seasonal influences.
Best Applications
Futures Markets: Commodities and futures often show strong seasonal tendencies due to production cycles, weather patterns, and economic factors
Stock Indices: Many stock markets demonstrate regular seasonal patterns (like the "Sell in May" phenomenon)
Individual Stocks: Companies with seasonal business cycles often show predictable price patterns
Practical Applications
Identify potential turning points based on historical seasonal patterns
Plan entries and exits around seasonal tendencies
Add seasonal context to your existing technical analysis
Understand why certain months or periods might show consistent behavior
Pro Tip: For best results, use this tool on instruments with at least 5+ years of historical data. Longer timeframes often reveal more reliable seasonal patterns.
Important Notes
This indicator works best on Daily, Weekly, and Monthly timeframes - not intraday charts
Seasonal patterns are tendencies, not guarantees
Always combine seasonal analysis with other technical tools
Past patterns may not repeat exactly in the future
// Sample of the seasonal calculation approach
float yearHigh = array.max(currentYearHighs)
float yearLow = array.min(currentYearLows)
// Calculate seasonality for each period
for i = 0 to array.size(currentYearCloses) - 1
float periodClose = array.get(currentYearCloses, i)
if not na(periodClose) and yearHigh != yearLow
float seasonality = (periodClose - yearLow) / (yearHigh - yearLow) * 100
I developed this indicator to help traders incorporate seasonal analysis into their trading approach without the complexity of traditional seasonal tools. Whether you're analyzing agricultural commodities, energy futures, or stock indices, understanding the seasonal context can provide valuable insights for your trading decisions.
Remember: Markets don't always follow seasonal patterns, but when they do, being aware of these tendencies can give you a meaningful edge in your analysis.
[GYTS] Filters ToolkitFilters Toolkit indicator
🌸 Part of GoemonYae Trading System (GYTS) 🌸
🌸 --------- 1. INTRODUCTION --------- 🌸
💮 Overview
The GYTS Filters Toolkit indicator is an advanced, interactive interface built atop the high‐performance, curated functions provided by the FiltersToolkit library . It allows traders to experiment with different combinations of filtering methods -— from smoothing low-pass filters to aggressive detrenders. With this toolkit, you can build custom indicators tailored to your specific trading strategy, whether you're looking for trend following, mean reversion, or cycle identification approaches.
🌸 --------- 2. FILTER METHODS AND TYPES --------- 🌸
💮 Filter categories
The available filters fall into four main categories, each marked with a distinct symbol:
🌗 Low Pass Filters (Smoothers)
These filters attenuate high-frequency components (noise) while allowing low-frequency components (trends) to pass through. Examples include:
Ultimate Smoother
Super Smoother (2-pole and 3-pole variants)
MESA Adaptive Moving Average (MAMA) and Following Adaptive Moving Average (FAMA)
BiQuad Low Pass Filter
ADXvma (Adaptive Directional Volatility Moving Average)
A2RMA (Adaptive Autonomous Recursive Moving Average)
Low pass filters are displayed on the price chart by default, as they follow the overall price movement. If they are combined with a high-pass or bandpass filter, they will be displayed in the subgraph.
🌓 High Pass Filters (Detrenders)
These filters do the opposite of low pass filters - they remove low-frequency components (trends) while allowing high-frequency components to pass through. Examples include:
Butterworth High Pass Filter
BiQuad High Pass Filter
High pass filters are displayed as oscillators in the subgraph below the price chart, as they fluctuate around a zero line.
🌑 Band Pass Filters (Cycle Isolators)
These filters combine aspects of both low and high pass filters, isolating specific frequency ranges while attenuating both higher and lower frequencies. Examples include:
Ehlers Bandpass Filter
Cyber Cycle
Relative Vigor Index (RVI)
BiQuad Bandpass Filter
Band pass filters are also displayed as oscillators in a separate panel.
🔮 Predictive Filter
Voss Predictive Filter: A special filter that attempts to predict future values of band-limited signals (only to be used as post-filter). Keep its prediction horizon short (1–3 bars) for reasonable accuracy.
Note that the the library contains elaborate documentation and source material of each filter.
🌸 --------- 3. INDICATOR FEATURES --------- 🌸
💮 Multi-filter configuration
One of the most powerful aspects of this indicator is the ability to configure multiple filters. compare them and observe their combined effects. There are four primary filters, each with its own parameter settings.
💮 Post-filtering
Process a filter’s output through an additional filter by enabling the post-filter option. This creates a filter chain where the output of one filter becomes the input to another. Some powerful combinations include:
Ultimate Smoother → MAMA: Creates an adaptive smoothing effect that responds well to market changes, good for trend-following strategies
Butterworth → Super Smoother → Butterworth: Produces a well-behaved oscillator with minimal phase distortion, John Ehlers also calls a "roofing filter". Great for identifying overbought/oversold conditions with minimal lag.
A bandpass filter → Voss Prediction filter: Attempts to predict future movements of cyclical components, handy to find peaks and troughs of the market cycle.
💮 Aggregate filters
Arguably the coolest feature: aggregating filters allow you to combine multiple filters with different weights. Important notes about aggregation:
You can only aggregate filters that appear on the same chart (price chart or oscillator panel).
The weights are automatically normalised, so only their relative values matter
Setting a weight to 0 (zero) excludes that filter from the aggregation
Filters don't need to be visibly displayed to be included in aggregation
💮 Rich visualisation & alerts
The indicator intelligently determines whether a filter is displayed on the price chart or in the subgraph (as an oscillator) based on its characteristics.
Dynamic colour palettes, adjustable line widths, transparency, and custom fill between any of enabled filters or between oscillators and the zero-line.
A clear legend showing which filters are active and how they're configured
Alerts for direction changes and crossovers of all filters
🌸 --------- 4. ACKNOWLEDGEMENTS --------- 🌸
This toolkit builds on the work of numerous pioneers in technical analysis and digital signal processing:
John Ehlers, whose groundbreaking research forms the foundation of many filters.
Robert Bristow-Johnson for the BiQuad filter formulations.
The TradingView community, especially @The_Peaceful_Lizard, @alexgrover, and others mentioned in the code of the library.

Stage AnalysisStage Analysis was created by Stan Weinstein, and helps traders to identify where a stock/etf/index is in its Price Cycle.
The Price Cycle was introduced by Richard D. Wyckoff in the early 1900s, where he noted that stocks repeatedly go through a cycle of Accumulation, Markup, Distribution and Markdown. Stan Weinstein’s Stage Analysis method modified the Wyckoff Price Cycle, and converted it into four stages, which are:
Stage 1 = Accumulation
Stage 2 = Markup
Stage 3 = Distribution
Stage 4 = Markdown
Stage Analysis indicator:
Stan Weinstein had different definitions for the four stages – Stage 1: The Basing Area, Stage 2: The Advancing Phase, Stage 3: The Top Area, Stage 4: The Declining Phase. But for the purposes of the Stage Analysis indicator, you’ll note that we’ve combined Stage 1 and Stage 3, as they share numerous technical characteristics, and in our opinion, still require some discretionary judgement to determine whether they are showing accumulation or distribution characteristics.
So, we believe that neutral better describes them from a purely technical aspect, as being in Stage 3 doesn’t necessarily mean the top area, as it can still make a Stage 2 continuation breakout to new highs, instead of breaking down into Stage 4. Just as a Stage 1 basing pattern, can still make a further Stage 4 continuation breakdown, and won’t necessarily breakout into a Stage 2 advance. Hence, we display both Stage 1 and Stage 3 as Neutral, to help remove the perceived bias associated with Stage 3 and Stage 1.
So, in the indicator the Stages are displayed as three different colored backgrounds:
Blue = Stage 1 / Stage 3: Neutral
Green = Stage 2: Uptrend
Red = Stage 4: Downtrend
Stage 1 / Stage 3: Neutral (Blue background)
Stage 1 shows signs of a potential accumulation base structure developing and begins with a close above the 30-week simple moving average, when the stock is still below its (usually declining) 40-week MA as well, following a Stage 4 downtrend, and then remains in Stage 1 until either it breaks out into a Stage 2 uptrend, or returns to a Stage 4 downtrend once more. Although, there are often multiple failed breakout and breakdown attempts, which change the Stage briefly to Stage 2 or Stage 4, before reverting back into Stage 1, as the base broadens out.
The initial move into Stage 1 can occur in numerous different ways. Sometimes following a powerful rebound rally from the 52-week lows to above the 30-week MA, and at other times, after a basing period first, while the stock is still in Stage 4, and then only briefly moving into Stage 1, before breaking out into a new Stage 2 uptrend. But with all ways, there is a notable Change of Character compared to the previous Stage 4 downtrend, as supply and demand moves towards equilibrium, and the stock starts to build a more significant sideways range/base structure.
Stage 3 is the exact opposite of Stage 1, and instead of accumulation. Signs of distribution begin to appear when a stock is getting later in a Stage 2 Uptrend, with the stock first closing below its 30-week MA, and then starting to build a more significant sideways range/base structure, than the minor structures that formed when it was still trending higher in Stage 2.
It begins with a change of behaviour (i.e. a bigger correction than seen during the rest of Stage 2, that takes it below its 30-week, but still above its (usually rising) 40-week MA, and then that often broadens out into a sideways structure, with multiple swings above and below the 30-week MA, with tests of the highs and lows of the developing structure. Which can see it briefly revert to Stage 2, with failed breakout attempts at the highs (Upthrusts), or Stage 4, with failed breakdown attempts at the lows of the structure (Shakeouts or Springs).
So, Stage 1 and Stage 3 are both more neutral periods between the Stage 2 (Uptrend) and Stage 4 (Downtrend).
Stage 2: Uptrend (Green Background)
Stage 2 is the most important Stage for traders looking to buy stocks with the Stage Analysis method, and begins with a breakout from the prior Stage 1 base, but can also occur more suddenly from a V-bottom pattern or earnings gaps. In which case, it will move directly from a Stage 4 downtrend into a Stage 2 uptrend.
The move to Stage 2 requires certain technical aspects to be present, including a close above its near-term range (we use a 13-week range based on weekly closes), as well as its 200-day MA (40-week MA), and for our proprietary Stage Analysis Technical Attributes (SATA)* score to be at a least a SATA 6 of 10. And so, the change from Stage 1 to Stage 2 will often occur while the stock is still within a “broader” base structure, as the quarterly range is continually shifting, and doesn’t consider technical levels prior to that period.
The breakout point as Stage 2 begins is the Stage Analysis methods favoured entry zone for investors, as it marks the change from the Stage 1 basing period into the more dynamic Stage 2 uptrend (chart changes to green)
A secondary investor entry point can often form soon after the Stage 2 breakout, as the momentum fades from the initial rally, and it pulls back towards the breakout level, before finding support and swinging back higher into the advancing phase. So, the Stage Analysis indicator can be used to determine this secondary entry point by dropping down to an intraday timeframe – such as the 30-minute chart, and waiting for a Stage 2 breakout attempt on that much shorter timescale.
The Trader method entry points also form during the Stage 2 advance, and occur at the Stage 2 continuation breakout points of the more minor re-accumulation bases that form as the Stage 2 advance progresses higher.
Stage 4: Downtrend (Red Background)
Stage 4 is the opposite of Stage 2, and marks the beginning of a potential downtrend, as the distributional forces from Stage 3 gain control, and the stock attempts to move lower.
Stage 4 is the most important Stage for traders looking to short stocks with the Stage Analysis method, and as with Stage 2, it can also begin more suddenly following a sudden sharp decline or an earnings gap lower etc, that knifes through the key MAs and quarterly range.
The move to Stage 4 also requires certain technical aspects to be present, including a close below its near-term range (we use a 13-week range based on weekly closes), as well as its 200-day MA (40-week MA), and for our proprietary Stage Analysis Technical Attributes (SATA) score to be a maximum of a SATA 3 of 10, as if the SATA score is higher than 3, then it will still be considered as Stage 3 (blue) until that drops to a SATA 3 or lower.
The initial short entry point in Stage 4 occurs at the breakdown from Stage 3 to Stage 4 (chart changes to red), and as with Stage 2, a secondary entry point can form, but in Stage 4 it is on a potential pullback towards the breakdown level that then reverses lower once more. So, the Stage Analysis indicator can be used to determine this secondary entry point by dropping down to an intraday timeframe – such as the 30-minute chart, and waiting for a Stage 4 breakdown attempt on that much shorter timescale.
The Trader method short entry points also form during the Stage 4 decline, and occur at the Stage 4 continuation breakdown points of the more minor re-distribution bases that form as the Stage 4 decline progresses lower.
Recommended Chart Setup:
Weekly
Logarithmic scale
Recommended Indicators:
10 – Simple Moving Average
30 – Simple Moving Average
40 – Simple Moving Average (optional)
Mansfield Relative Strength (Original Version) (optional)
Stage Analysis Technical Attributes (SATA) (optional)
The Stages are intended to be used on the Weekly timeframe with a Logarithmic scale primarily, with a 10-week MA, 30-week MA and 40-week MA. But Stage Analysis can be used across multiple timeframes. So, for shorter-term swing traders, the 195-min (2bars/day), 2-hour, 1-hour, 30-min charts etc are often used with the same relative chart settings. But note that the lower the timeframe, the more noise that you’ll get, so you should always refer back to the weekly Stage to trade with the major trend.

Reference:
*Stage Analysis Technical Attributes (SATA)
The Stage Analysis Technical Attributes (SATA) scoring system is our proprietary tool which measures 10 of the key components that we look for in the Stage Analysis method to help to determine the Stage, and is made up of the following components:
Breakouts and Breakdowns
Price / Moving Averages
Relative Strength versus the S&P 500
Momentum
Volume
Overhead Resistance
Combining the SATA score with the price elements described in the Stages descriptions above, provides a Stage Analysis indicator that is faithful to Stan Weinstein's Stage Analysis method, and truly unique from other more simplistic automated versions of the Stages that you might find elsewhere.

FloWave Oscillator [StabTrading]The FloWave Oscillator is a powerful trading tool designed to identify market trends and reversals by analysing reversal zones based on momentum and fear algorithms.
Serving as the first stage in a comprehensive trading system, it is intentionally straightforward, allowing traders to clearly see potential entry points across all charts and timeframes.
By inputting their own market sentiment, traders can customize the algorithm to align with their trading style. This flexibility helps traders navigate complex market environments with greater precision, whether they are seeking to capitalize on short-term opportunities or ride longer-term trends.
💡 Features
Reversal Zones - The FloWave Oscillator identifies key reversal zones driven by momentum and fear dynamics. Lighter green zones signal the initial stages of a potential reversal, while darker green zones indicate that a trend flip is imminent.
Trading Style Customization - The indicator allows traders to adjust their trading style with sensitivity settings ranging from Very Aggressive to Very Conservative. This flexibility lets traders tailor the indicator to their preferred time horizon—whether they seek to scalp short-term opportunities or capture long-term reversals.
🔥 Sensitivity Settings
Very Aggressive/Aggressive - These settings increase the indicator's sensitivity, generating more frequent signals, ideal for traders focused on short-term gains or those navigating choppy markets.
Neutral - Offers a balanced approach, combining both aggressive and conservative elements. It's a starting point for traders to evaluate performance before adjusting to more specific styles.
Conservative/Very Conservative - These settings reduce signal frequency, focusing on stronger, more reliable reversals. Best suited for long-term traders aiming to minimize risk and avoid premature market entries or exits.
🛠️ Usage/Practice
In the above example we’ll analysis how the indicator accurately predicts both the tops and bottoms of a market cycle.
Top of the Bull Market - The trendline initially shows two light red reversal zones, signalling a potential weakening in the upward momentum. As the trend progresses, a dark red zone emerges, confirming that a more substantial trend reversal to the downside is likely. This sequence provides an early warning, allowing traders to prepare for a possible market shift.
First Bull Signal - In the following phase, the indicator mirrors the previous action but in the opposite direction, identifying a reversal towards the upside. This behaviour demonstrates the indicator's ability to adapt to changing market conditions.
Bottom of the Bear Market - As the market continues its downward trajectory, the indicator presents two dark green reversal zones, highlighting areas where the selling pressure may be easing. These dark green zones offer three distinct opportunities to dollar-cost average (DCA) into the asset, allowing traders to build or enhance their positions during the end of the bear cycle. The indicator’s sensitivity in this phase ensures that traders can navigate the bearish market with confidence.
Continuation of Bull Cycle - In this segment, the indicator does not display any dark green reversal zones, implying that the uptrend remains robust. The absence of these zones suggests that the upward momentum is likely to continue, providing traders with another opportunity to add to their long positions. This scenario underscores the indicator’s capacity to identify when a trend is strong enough to warrant additional investment.
Potential Correction in an Uptrend - A light red zone appears, signalling a possible correction within the ongoing uptrend. However, the absence of a dark red zone indicates that the correction may be minor and that the overall trend is still upward. Traders might view this as a conservative point to take some profits off the table, managing risk while staying aligned with the broader bull market.
Bearish Signal - Eventually, a dark red reversal zone emerges, indicating that the trend has lost its upward momentum. This signal serves as a strong indicator that the uptrend may be concluding, prompting traders to consider exiting their positions or taking a more defensive stance. As the market enters a sideways phase, the trader can switch to a more aggressive trading style, seeking opportunities to scalp within the range while navigating the flat market conditions.
In this example, we demonstrate how to identify scalp trading opportunities by combining the Very Conservative and Very Aggressive settings. The key strategy is to use the Very Conservative trend to confirm the validity of reversal zones identified by the Very Aggressive setting.
The VC trend doesn’t indicate a buy reversal zone, but it shows an upward divergence. This suggests that the reversal buy zone on the VA chart is a potential entry point due to the supportive VC trend.
Multiple sell zones appear on the VA chart, but the VC trend shows a strong and steady uptrend. This suggests that we should wait for confirmation from the VC trend before considering a sell position, as the market is still moving upward strongly.
The VA chart shows several buy zones, but the VC trend indicates a strong downtrend, and no buy zone appears on the conservative setting. This suggests waiting for the next VA buy zone, confirmed by an upward divergence on the VC trend, before entering a trade.
Similar to Point 3 but in the opposite direction, the VA chart shows sell zones, but the VC trend indicates caution. The strategy would be to wait for confirmation from the VC trend before making a move.
🔶Conclusion
When used in conjunction with other indicators like the MeanRevert Matrix, the FloWave Oscillator becomes an integral part of a comprehensive trading system. It helps traders make informed decisions by providing clear signals that are aligned with the current market sentiment and broader economic trends. By following the implementation guidelines and adjusting the indicator settings as market conditions change, traders can effectively enhance their trading performance.

ATC v6 with ORB by SabnATC v6 with ORB: Advanced Automatic Session and Opening
Range Indicator
ATC v6 is an advanced indicator designed by Alfa Trade Club for
TradingView users. This tool not only automatically marks important session
opens, closes, or specific times of financial markets on your chart but also
visualizes powerful Opening Range (ORB) strategies directly on your chart.
This tool removes the need to manually monitor critical trading hours, allowing
you to easily analyze price action in relation to these important timeframes.
Key Features
This indicator comes with a set of powerful features to provide the flexibility,
visual clarity, and strategic advantage that traders need:
1. Multi-Time Zone Support The indicator is based on the world's most
important financial market centers:
New York (America/New_York)
London (Europe/London)
Tokyo (Asia/Tokyo)
Istanbul (Europe/Istanbul)
This allows you to always set the lines accurately according to the local time of
the market you are trading.
2. Advanced 3-Stage Timing (Pre / Main / Next) Each time line is more than
just a simple line; it can manage a three-stage event cycle:
"Pre-Session": Draws a dotted line a few minutes before the main time you
specify (e.g., market open). This allows you to see the price level just before a
significant event.
"Main Session": Marks the opening price at the exact event time (e.g., 08:00
London Open) with a solid line.
"Next / ORB" (Opening Range): Draws another dotted line a specified number
of minutes after the main event (e.g., 15 minutes later). This is used to define the
Opening Range.
3. Automatic Price Boxes (Volatility & ORB) The indicator can draw two
different types of boxes based on this timing:
Opening Volatility Box (Pre -> Main): If the "Pre-Session" feature is active, the
indicator draws a colored box between the price at the pre-session moment and
the price at the main event. This box visualizes the initial volatility at the session
open.
Opening Range Box (Main -> Next): If the "Next" feature is active, the indicator
draws a box between the price at the main event and the "next" event.
4. Customizable Time Lines You have full control over each line. Users can:
Enable/Disable each line.
Set any desired hour and minute.
Define the "Pre" and "Next" durations in minutes.
Assign a different color for visual distinction.
5. Smart and Efficient Drawing
Forward-Extending Lines: All drawn lines and boxes automatically extend from
the moment they are created until the next day. This makes it easy to track how
these levels act as support/resistance throughout the day.
High Performance: Instead of deleting old lines and drawing new ones when a
new day starts, the code intelligently extends the existing lines into the next day
Weekend and DST Protection: Automatically skips weekends (from Friday to
Monday) and is not affected by Daylight Saving Time (DST) changes.
Who Is It For?
Session-Focused Traders: Ideal for those who track volatility during the London,
New York, Asian, or Istanbul session opens.
Day Traders: Perfect for those who want to mark important economic data
release times or daily market open/close levels.
Technical Analysts: A powerful aid for those who want to visually analyze how
opening prices at specific times and time ranges play a role throughout the day.
ATC v6 with ORB is much more than just a simple session line; it is a dynamic
analysis and strategy tool that combines price and time.
HADES Timecycle SMTWhat this indicator tracks
1) Time‑cycles based on QT (Micro → 90‑minute → Daily → Weekly)
HADESSMT segments the trading day and week into recurring phases and paints them directly on your chart:
real time plotting of SSMTs for Micro cycles, when Q1 and Q2 highs or lows are different for correlated assets. same for the 90‑minute quarters , Daily cycles and Weekly cycles
2) SSMT : The script continuously compares your chart to a correlated instrument and highlights cycle‑scoped SMT divergences :
Scopes: Micro, 90m, Daily, Weekly.
The tool draws compact slanted segments between consecutive cycle highs/lows and places a small label with the scope tag (e.g., 90m, D, W, Mic.) and the comparison ticker.
Table summary: A docked panel logs Bullish/Bearish SMT currently active per scope.
In plain English: when two tightly related markets fail to confirm each other’s new extremes inside the same cycle window, HADESSMT calls that out visually and in the table.
3) PSP /scanner (👁️)
A compact scanner runs on 240m, 60m, and 15m composite views of your chosen inter‑market set and tags bars with an eye icon (👁️):
👁️ below price → a bullish turning‑point signature.
👁️ above price → a bearish turning‑point signature.
Events are logged in the table (e.g., “60m Bullish PSP 👁️”).
Treat PSP tags as context—they’re not trade signals by themselves. They often add confluence when they align with SSMT and cycle boundaries.
4) “True Open” levels
includes a daily open line that marks midnight open for the day.
Inter‑market sets (Triads & Dyads)
HADESSMT automatically picks a comparison instrument based on what you’re charting. Two mechanisms exist:
Triads (auto‑pairing):
FX: EUR + GBP ↔ inverse DXY
Metals: Gold + Silver
US Indices: NQ + YM + ES
You can show one or both comparison legs.
Tip: If you don’t see SMT labels, ensure your symbol belongs to one of the configured sets or customize the tickers in Triad inputs.
On‑chart visuals you’ll see
Thin slanted SMT markers between successive cycle extremes with a small scope/ticker tag.
👁️ PSP labels on higher‑timeframe bars.
True‑Open lines labeled 00:00 (daily) .
Summary table (right side by default) containing:
The comparison ticker currently in use,
Any active Bullish/Bearish SMT per scope,
Recent PSP 👁️ calls at 240/60/15 minutes.
How to use it (practical flow)
Pick your market & ensure a comparison exists (Triad ).
Important: HADESSMT is a context engine, not a trade system. Use your own risk management and confirmation.
Triad– enable one/both SMT comparisons; edit the default tickers if your broker symbols differ.
Timezone – UTC offset (default -4) to align cycle splits with your session.
Micro features appear on charts ≤ 5m.
90‑minute features are designed for charts ≤ 30m.
Daily features prefer charts ≤ 3h.
Weekly features render reliably on daily charts and below.
(If a layer doesn’t appear, you may be on a timeframe above its designed threshold.)
FAQs
Why don’t I see SMT on my market?
Ensure the symbol is in one of the configured Triad sets, or add your own correlated ticker(s).
What exactly is PSP?
A compact pressure/turn signature across your inter‑market set. It’s presented as an 👁️ tag and a table entry (bullish/bearish). The internal detection specifics are intentionally abstracted.
