Key Features
Inspiration and Foundation
This indicator draws inspiration from the Linear Regression Oscillator , leveraging its robust trend detection capabilities while adding custom enhancements for broader functionality and user adaptability.
Trading Style Customization
Adaptable for Scalping, Intraday, and Swing Trading with dynamic parameter adjustments for each style.
User-defined inputs for thresholds, lookback periods, and visualization options provide further control.
Enhanced Linear Regression Oscillator (LRO)
A refined implementation of the LRO calculates deviations from a regression line, normalized for improved trend detection.
Identifies bullish and bearish crossovers with added alerts and visual markers.
Includes proximity alerts for critical thresholds to help traders anticipate key market movements.
Dynamic Support and Resistance Integration

Designed to keep charts clean by limiting displayed trades and signals to recent activity.
Adjustable parameters ensure flexibility and a user-friendly experience.
How It Works
Trend Detection with Enhanced LRO
The indicator builds on the Linear Regression Oscillator , calculating oscillations of price movements and normalizing them for trend analysis. Crossovers and threshold proximity are visualized on the chart and trigger alerts for potential market shifts.
Dynamic Support and Resistance Levels
The ENIGMA Signal Logic identifies recent swing highs and lows, marking them as key levels. These levels are dynamically updated as new swing points are detected, providing actionable support and resistance zones.
Signal Confirmation
Buy or sell signals are confirmed when:
Price breaches the swing levels.
The LRO aligns with directional bias (e.g., bearish crossover for sell signals).
Signals are further clarified by ENIGMA's green triangle indicators, showing key buy and sell opportunities.
Visualization and Alerts
Signals are displayed using arrows, labelled horizontal lines, and optional candle colours. Alerts notify traders of key events, such as LRO threshold crossings or swing-level breaches.
How to Use
Choose your Trading Style: Scalping, Intraday, or Swing Trading. The indicator adjusts its default settings automatically.
Fine-tune parameters like LRO thresholds, line lengths, and the number of visible trades to suit your preferences.
Observe the chart for signals:
Green arrows and lines indicate buy opportunities.
Red arrows and lines signal sell opportunities.
Use the alert system to stay informed about LRO thresholds and signal confirmations.
Integrate the indicator with your existing trading strategy for better decision-making.

RSI and Bollinger Bands Screener [deepakks444]Indicator Overview
The indicator is designed to help traders identify potential long signals by combining the Relative Strength Index (RSI) and Bollinger Bands across multiple timeframes. This combination allows traders to leverage the strengths of both indicators to make more informed trading decisions.
Understanding RSI
What is RSI?
The Relative Strength Index (RSI) is a momentum oscillator that measures the speed and change of price movements. Developed by J. Welles Wilder Jr. for stocks and forex trading, the RSI is primarily used to identify overbought or oversold conditions in an asset.
How RSI Works:
Calculation: The RSI is calculated using the average gains and losses over a specified period, typically 14 periods.
Range: The RSI oscillates between 0 and 100.
Interpretation:
Key Features of RSI:
Momentum Indicator: RSI helps identify the momentum of price movements.
Divergences: RSI can show divergences, where the price makes a higher high, but the RSI makes a lower high, indicating potential reversals.
Trend Identification: RSI can also help identify trends. In an uptrend, the RSI tends to stay above 50, and in a downtrend, it tends to stay below 50.
Understanding Bollinger Bands
What is Bollinger Bands?
Bollinger Bands are a type of trading band or envelope plotted two standard deviations (positively and negatively) away from a simple moving average (SMA) of a price. Developed by financial analyst John Bollinger, Bollinger Bands consist of three lines:
Upper Band: SMA + (Standard Deviation × Multiplier)
Middle Band (Basis): SMA
Lower Band: SMA - (Standard Deviation × Multiplier)
How Bollinger Bands Work:
Volatility Measure: Bollinger Bands measure the volatility of the market. When the bands are wide, it indicates high volatility, and when the bands are narrow, it indicates low volatility.
Price Movement: The price tends to revert to the mean (middle band) after touching the upper or lower bands.
Support and Resistance: The upper and lower bands can act as dynamic support and resistance levels.
Key Features of Bollinger Bands:
Volatility Indicator: Bollinger Bands help traders understand the volatility of the market.
Mean Reversion: Prices tend to revert to the mean (middle band) after touching the bands.
Squeeze: A Bollinger Band Squeeze occurs when the bands narrow significantly, indicating low volatility and a potential breakout.
Combining RSI and Bollinger Bands
Strategy Overview:
The strategy aims to identify potential long signals by combining RSI and Bollinger Bands across multiple timeframes. The key conditions are:
RSI Crossing Above 60: The RSI should cross above 60 on the 15-minute timeframe.
RSI Above 60 on Higher Timeframes: The RSI should already be above 60 on the hourly and daily timeframes.
Price Above 20MA or Walking on Upper Bollinger Band: The price should be above the 20-period moving average of the Bollinger Bands or walking on the upper Bollinger Band.
Strategy Details:
RSI Calculation:
Calculate the RSI for the 15-minute, 1-hour, and 1-day timeframes.
Check if the RSI crosses above 60 on the 15-minute timeframe.
Ensure the RSI is above 60 on the 1-hour and 1-day timeframes.
Bollinger Bands Calculation:
Calculate the Bollinger Bands using a 20-period moving average and 2 standard deviations.
Check if the price is above the 20-period moving average or walking on the upper Bollinger Band.
Entry and Exit Signals:
Long Signal: When all the above conditions are met, consider a long entry.
Exit: Exit the trade when the price crosses below the 20-period moving average or the stop-loss is hit.
Example Usage
Setup:
Add the indicator to your TradingView chart.
Configure the inputs as per your requirements.
Monitoring:
Look for the long signal on the chart.
Ensure that the RSI is above 60 on the 15-minute, 1-hour, and 1-day timeframes.
Check that the price is above the 20-period moving average or walking on the upper Bollinger Band.
Trading:
Enter a long position when the criteria are met.
Set a stop-loss below the low of the recent 15-minute candle or based on your risk management rules.
Monitor the trade and exit when the RSI returns below 60 on any of the timeframes or when the price crosses below the 20-period moving average.
House Rules Compliance
No Financial Advice: This strategy is for educational purposes only and should not be construed as financial advice.
Risk Management: Always use proper risk management techniques, including stop-loss orders and position sizing.
Past Performance: Past performance is not indicative of future results. Always conduct your own research and analysis.
TradingView Guidelines: Ensure that any shared scripts or strategies comply with TradingView's terms of service and community guidelines.
Conclusion
This strategy combines RSI and Bollinger Bands across multiple timeframes to identify potential long signals. By ensuring that the RSI is above 60 on higher timeframes and that the price is above the 20-period moving average or walking on the upper Bollinger Band, traders can make more informed decisions. Always remember to conduct thorough research and use proper risk management techniques.
Volume Spike LevelsThis trading indicator finds specific high volume patterns that we have found to be the most likely to act as strong support and resistance levels and plots them on the chart. Using those high probability levels, the indicator will show lines in real time, as well as lines and important zones at the beginning of higher time frames to give you specific levels and areas where price is likely to react.
The most important volume zone for each time frame will have a color fill between the top and bottom lines of that high probability zone so you know to pay extra close attention to that area and look for price reactions there. If you can be patient enough to wait for price to hit these important areas and start to reverse, you will get great entries and help keep yourself from overtrading.
The levels shown can be adjusted to suit your preference, allowing you to get the right amount of levels for your trading strategy, whether that be scalping the 1 minute chart or long term investing via the daily chart.
HOW TO USE
For best results with this indicator, look for 2 types of setups. The first setup is a continuation bounce. You should be looking for these when price has broken out of its recent trading range either to the upside or the downside. When price is extending like this, look to take entries once a volume spike level shows up on the chart and price retraces back to that level. Then take your entry in the same direction as the trend. You can scalp quick wins this way, or you can wait for the next volume spike level to show up and price can’t hold that level any more, then get out. Place your stop loss just beyond the pivot that bounced off of the volume level.
The second type of setup you should look for is a reversal setup. This setup should be used when the market is ranging. Look for the top and bottom of the recent range and find the volume spike levels near the top or bottom of that range and wait for price to reach those levels. Once price hits that level and starts to show a reversal in price, take your entry. You can take quick scalps from those reversals for quick wins, or you can wait for price to reach the next major volume spike level and get out there or just before it. Place your stop loss just beyond the pivot that price made at the volume spike level where you entered your trade.
No matter which setup you are trading, it is never a bad idea to trail your stop loss as price moves towards your take profit level. Whatever volume spike timeframes you are using for your overall trend, you can use a lower time frame volume spike level to give you price points to trail your stop loss to there once price gets supportive at those levels and moves past them.
You should also pay close attention to how price reacts to the important volume zones shown. Many times, price will range inside or near these zones for a while and then form an accumulation just above or below that zone. When this happens, it is likely that price will start to move quickly in the direction that price moved away from that important zone. So when you see the price range inside of these zones and then go just beyond the zone on either side and accumulate, look to trade that breakout of the zone in the same direction that it moved away from the zone.
Note that on lower time frame charts, you will not be able to get some higher time frame levels because Tradingview limits the number of historical bars it can calculate on. So if you are on the 1-5 minute chart, you won’t be able to get yearly or quarterly levels late in the year/quarter due to the number of bars it has to calculate for those levels to populate is beyond the number of allowed bars. You can work around this by manually going to the daily chart and getting the yearly levels and drawing a horizontal line on your chart at the levels shown so that you still have those levels on your lower time frame charts. Unfortunately there is no way for us to work around this with code.
Each setting in the settings panel has a tooltip that will explain that specific setting so you understand how to use it. Just hover your mouse over the “i” icon and it will show a popup with the info. For the non-real time levels, the daily level settings will have the tooltips explaining everything and that info applies to all of the non-real time levels.
MODES
The indicator has two different modes you can use that will affect how the real time levels show up on your chart but will not affect the higher time frame levels. The default mode will give you static horizontal lines only. This means that when a high probability volume spike level comes in, a horizontal line will be drawn and will extend as long as the timeframe that the level is set to. For example a 60 minute volume spike time frame will extend the line for 60 minutes on the chart and then end. These lines will be drawn individually and will not update.
The second mode will give you variable lines and will show a color fill based on where price is in relation to all of the real time levels that are turned on. So if the price is above a level, it will color the background green and if the price is below a level, it will color the background red. This helps identify the trend of price compared to where the high probability volume spike levels came in so you can trade in the direction of the trend. With this mode, the lines for each time frame will update to the new level when a new volume spike for that time frame happens.
ALERTS
The indicator has alerts programmed for each different type of volume spike level that is available to add to your chart. So you can set an alert for when a new volume spike happens on any of the real time volume spike time frames, when price crosses the most recent real time volume spike level for each time frame, alert when any real time volume spike happens, alert when price crosses any of the higher time frame volume levels and also when price has crossed the upper or lower level of any of the important volume zones. Each alert is labeled the same as in the indicator settings so you can easily select which one you want.
For alerts to work properly, you have to have the levels turned on for whatever alerts you use. For example if you want an alert for Realtime 2 Volume Spikes, the Realtime 2 Volume Spike Levels must be turned on and shown on your chart.
Note that when using the alerts for price crossing a level, it will only alert when price crosses the most recent volume spike level. It will not alert when price crosses a previous level of the same time frame.
CUSTOMIZATION
You can customize nearly every feature of this indicator to tailor it to your specific trading style. Some of the customizable features are as follows: turn on or off labels for each time frame, turn on or off the color fills for important volume zones for each time frame, turn on or off the levels for each time frame, adjust the number of previous levels shown for each time frame, change the length of the lines for each time frame, extend the lines right for each time frame, change the color of the lines for each time frame, adjust the color fill colors for important volume zones, adjust the label colors and adjust the label offset length.
We also included some master settings to allow you to control various settings across all time frames with one click. These settings are as follows: turn on or off all labels, turn on or off all realtime levels, remove all lines except the most important volume zone on every time frame, turn on or off all color fills of important zones, adjust the background color fill of the trend coloring when set to variable lines and adjust the background color of all important zones.
There is also a feature that may need to be adjusted when you are looking at charts that do not have a lot of historical data. It will say the index is out of bounds, so look at the index number that the error shows by hovering over the red exclamation point next to the indicator name and adjust the setting labeled “Bar Index Threshold To Fix Errors” to a number that is slightly higher than the index number in the error message. This will fix the error by changing the calculations slightly to adjust for the bar indexes of that specific chart.
MARKETS IT CAN BE USED ON
This indicator can be used on any market that has volume data, including stocks, crypto, futures, forex and more.
TIME FRAMES IT CAN BE USED ON
This indicator has been programmed to work on the following time frames: 15 seconds, 30 seconds, 1 minute, 2 minute, 3 minute, 4 minute, 5 minute, 10 minute, 15 minute, 30 minute, 45 minute, 1 hour, 2 hour, 3 hour, 4 hour, 6 hour, 8 hour, 12 hour, 1 day, 2 day, 3 day, 1 week, 2 week, 1 month, 3 month and 1 year.
If you use a different time frame than shown above, you may get errors or irregular results, so please stick to the time frames that the trading indicator has been programmed to work correctly with.
Candlestick Strength and Volatility ReadoutDisplays a readout on the top right corner of the screen displaying a two basic calculations (volatility and strength; i.e. candlestick size and how close to the highs or lows it closed) for more convenient candlestick (price action) analysis.
Due to restrictions with Pine Script (or my knowledge thereof) only the current and previous candlestick data is shown, rather than the one currently hovered over.
The data is derived via two simple calculations; volatility being division between the range of the candlestick's high and low by the ATR; 'strength' (what I like to call it) being the range of the body by the range of the open to high or low, depending on the facing direction (positive or negative candlestick). These are expressed as percentages and will turn green depending on the set threshold.
Using this, one can effectively automate calculations you'd have to do by hand otherwise. I personally use these as entry filters in my trading, so it helps to not have to measure, remeasure, and divide before each potential entry.
Settings are implemented to change certain variables to your liking.
PSP Indicator [Elbaz]Precision Swing Point or PSP is a unique technical analysis tool designed to compare the price action of three tickers that are in sync.
It highlights moments when the price structure diverges between the markets, identifying ideal entry points for trades - We would like to enter a trade when we found PSP and one of the tickers took the wick while others didn't.
This strategy provides an edge by focusing on periods of desynchronization between the indices, where one index may be showing strength while another is lagging. The idea is to find the moments where the candle colors (bullish or bearish) differ across the markets, then wait for one of the tickers to "take" the wick of the PSP while other didn't and enter a trade.
Once a divergence is detected, the indicator plots an arrow on the chart, signaling a potential trade entry. To minimize risk, a good place to put stop loss will at the end of the wick of the PSP — the high or low wick of the candle where the divergence occurs.
The PSP Indicator allows for several custom inputs:
- Tickers: Customize the tickers to compare. The default values are S&P 500 E-mini, NASDAQ E-mini, and Dow Jones E-mini, if you trade Crypto you might want to use BTC, ETH, TOTAL3.
- Lookback Period: The lookback input defines how far back the indicator should evaluate to calculate the price structure point.
- Highlight Bar Times: Users can specify particular times during the trading day to highlight, such as the market open or significant news events. This helps traders focus on key trading windows.
Silver Bullet ICT Strategy [TradingFinder] 10-11 AM NY Time +FVG🔵 Introduction
The ICT Silver Bullet trading strategy is a precise, time-based algorithmic approach that relies on Fair Value Gaps and Liquidity to identify high-probability trade setups. The strategy primarily focuses on the New York AM Session from 10:00 AM to 11:00 AM, leveraging heightened market activity within this critical window to capture short-term trading opportunities.
As an intraday strategy, it is most effective on lower timeframes, with ICT recommending a 15-minute chart or lower. While experienced traders often utilize 1-minute to 5-minute charts, beginners may find the 1-minute timeframe more manageable for applying this strategy.
This approach specifically targets quick trades, designed to take advantage of market movements within tight one-hour windows. By narrowing its focus, the Silver Bullet offers a streamlined and efficient method for traders to capitalize on liquidity shifts and price imbalances with precision.
In the fast-paced world of forex trading, the ability to identify market manipulation and false price movements is crucial for traders aiming to stay ahead of the curve. The Silver Bullet Indicator simplifies this process by integrating ICT principles such as liquidity traps, Order Blocks, and Fair Value Gaps (FVG).
These concepts form the foundation of a tool designed to mimic the strategies of institutional players, empowering traders to align their trades with the "smart money." By transforming complex market dynamics into actionable insights, the Silver Bullet Indicator provides a powerful framework for short-term trading success

Silver Bullet Bearish Setup :
🔵 How to Use
The Silver Bullet Indicator is a specialized tool that operates within the critical time windows of 9:00-10:00 and 10:00-11:00 in the forex market. Its design incorporates key principles from ICT (Inner Circle Trader) methodology, focusing on concepts such as liquidity traps, CISD Levels, Order Blocks, and Fair Value Gaps (FVG) to provide precise and actionable trade setups.
🟣 Bullish Setup
In a bullish setup, the indicator starts by marking the high and low of the session, serving as critical reference points for liquidity. A typical sequence involves a liquidity grab below the low, where the price manipulates retail traders into selling positions by breaching a key support level.
This movement is often orchestrated by smart money to accumulate buy orders. Following this liquidity grab, a market structure shift (MSS) occurs, signaled by the price breaking the CISD Level—a confirmation of bullish intent. The indicator then highlights an Order Block near the CISD Level, representing the zone where institutional buying is concentrated.
Additionally, it identifies a Fair Value Gap, which acts as a high-probability area for price retracement and trade entry. Traders can confidently take long positions when the price revisits these zones, targeting the next significant liquidity pool or resistance level.
Bullish Setup in CAPITALCOM:US100 :
🟣 Bearish Setup
Conversely, in a bearish setup, the price manipulates liquidity by creating a false breakout above the high of the session. This move entices retail traders into long positions, allowing institutional players to enter sell orders.
Once the price reverses direction and breaches the CISD Level to the downside, a change of character (CHOCH) becomes evident, confirming a bearish market structure. The indicator highlights an Order Block near this level, indicating the origin of the institutional sell orders, along with an associated FVG, which represents an imbalance zone likely to be revisited before the price continues downward.
By entering short positions when the price retraces to these levels, traders align their strategies with the anticipated continuation of bearish momentum, targeting nearby liquidity voids or support zones.
Bearish Setup in OANDA:XAUUSD :
🔵 Settings
Refine Order Block : Enables finer adjustments to Order Block levels for more accurate price responses.
Mitigation Level OB : Allows users to set specific reaction points within an Order Block, including: Proximal: Closest level to the current price. 50% OB: Midpoint of the Order Block. Distal: Farthest level from the current price.
FVG Filter : The Judas Swing indicator includes a filter for Fair Value Gap (FVG), allowing different filtering based on FVG width: FVG Filter Type: Can be set to "Very Aggressive," "Aggressive," "Defensive," or "Very Defensive." Higher defensiveness narrows the FVG width, focusing on narrower gaps.
Mitigation Level FVG : Like the Order Block, you can set price reaction levels for FVG with options such as Proximal, 50% OB, and Distal.
CISD : The Bar Back Check option enables traders to specify the number of past candles checked for identifying the CISD Level, enhancing CISD Level accuracy on the chart.
🔵 Conclusion
The Silver Bullet Indicator is a cutting-edge tool designed specifically for forex traders who aim to leverage market dynamics during critical liquidity windows. By focusing on the highly active 9:00-10:00 and 10:00-11:00 timeframes, the indicator simplifies complex market concepts such as liquidity traps, Order Blocks, Fair Value Gaps (FVG), and CISD Levels, transforming them into actionable insights.
What sets the Silver Bullet Indicator apart is its precision in detecting false breakouts and market structure shifts (MSS), enabling traders to align their strategies with institutional activity. The visual clarity of its signals, including color-coded zones and directional arrows, ensures that both novice and experienced traders can easily interpret and apply its findings in real-time.
By integrating ICT principles, the indicator empowers traders to identify high-probability entry and exit points, minimize risk, and optimize trade execution. Whether you are capturing short-term price movements or navigating complex market conditions, the Silver Bullet Indicator offers a robust framework to enhance your trading performance.
Ultimately, this tool is more than just an indicator; it is a strategic ally for traders who seek to decode the movements of smart money and capitalize on institutional strategies.

Momentum Flow OscillatorIndicator Overview: Momentum Flow Oscillator (MFO)
The Momentum Flow Oscillator (MFO) is a powerful tool for detecting shifts in market momentum. It combines a momentum-based calculation with a dynamic ribbon of moving averages to help traders identify trend reversals, continuations, and market consolidations. The MFO offers a clear visual representation of market conditions and assists traders in making informed decisions based on the relationship between momentum and its underlying trends.
The MFO line (green) is plotted alongside a Base Line (black) and a series of moving averages (ribbon). The ribbon is composed of five moving averages of different lengths, which allow traders to spot trends, momentum shifts, and potential trade opportunities. It is important to note that the ribbon tends to be a slower-moving component of the indicator, providing long-term trend signals rather than quick, reactive signals.
Components of the Indicator:
Momentum Flow Index (MFI):
This green line is the core of the indicator, representing market momentum derived from price and volume action. It reacts to changes in market dynamics and helps identify periods of strength and weakness.
Base Line (Black Line):
The black line is a 200-period moving average of the momentum flow. This acts as a dynamic support/resistance level for the MFI, smoothing out the price action over a longer period and providing a clearer trend signal.
Moving Averages Ribbon:
The ribbon is composed of five moving averages with different periods (100, 125, 150, 175, and 200). These moving averages create a visual "ribbon" that helps identify trends and consolidations, allowing traders to visualize the market’s momentum over different time frames.
The ribbon acts as a slower-moving indicator, helping to confirm long-term trends. Traders should keep in mind that the ribbon provides signals with a lag, making it ideal for trend-following rather than quick, short-term trades.
How to Use the Momentum Flow Oscillator (MFO):
1. Bullish Momentum Signals:
When the MFI (green line) crosses above the Base Line and the SMA ribbon, it indicates increasing momentum in the market. This signal is particularly strong when the MFI stays above the ribbon for an extended period.
Trade Example: Traders can use this as a buy signal when the MFI crosses above the ribbon, indicating that momentum is shifting to the upside. If the ribbon starts fanning out, it suggests the market is trending strongly upward, which may support a long position.
2. Bearish Momentum Signals:
When the MFI crosses below the Base Line and the SMA ribbon, it signals decreasing momentum. This is a bearish sign, indicating that the market may be preparing for a downturn.
Trade Example: A trader can use the cross below the ribbon as a sell signal or consider entering a short position when momentum weakens. If the ribbon fans out in a downward direction, it suggests the market is trending lower, and a short position may be warranted.
3. Neutral or Caution Signals:
When the MFI fluctuates within the SMA ribbon or crosses in and out frequently, the market may be in a consolidation phase or range-bound. In this situation, the trend is uncertain, and momentum is not strong enough to break decisively in either direction.
Trade Example: Traders may want to avoid taking new positions when the MFI is moving sideways within the ribbon, as this indicates indecision in the market. Waiting for a breakout above or below the ribbon can provide clearer signals for trading.
4. Trend Confirmation with Ribbon Expansion:
When the SMA ribbon expands, it indicates strong momentum in the direction of the trend. A clear widening of the ribbon with the MFI above (bullish) or below (bearish) signals a strong, sustainable trend.
Trade Example: As the ribbon expands, it confirms the strength of the trend, and traders can use this as confirmation to either hold an existing position or add to it.
5. Reversal Signals from Ribbon Contraction:
When the SMA ribbon contracts or the MFI crosses back and forth over the Base Line, it signals a potential reversal or a weakening of the existing trend.
Trade Example: In these cases, traders might consider closing positions or preparing for a reversal, as the contraction often signals a potential breakout in the opposite direction.
Example of Using the MFO in Trading:
In the provided chart image, you can see the MFI moving below the Base Line and the SMA ribbon for an extended period. This indicates bearish momentum, and traders could use this signal to enter a short position or avoid long positions until the MFI shows signs of crossing back above the ribbon. When the MFI crosses above the ribbon, it can signal a potential bullish reversal, indicating it might be time to re-enter long positions or close short positions.
Additional Trading Tips:
Combine with Other Indicators: The MFO can be used in combination with other technical tools such as volume-based indicators, trendlines, or oscillators like RSI or MACD to confirm signals and increase accuracy.
Use Different Time Frames: Traders can apply the MFO on different time frames (e.g., daily, weekly) to capture both short-term and long-term trends. Crossovers in longer time frames provide stronger confirmation of trend direction.
Conservative Entry: For more conservative traders, waiting for the MFI to fully cross above or below the ribbon (rather than within it) can help filter out false signals and avoid entering trades during consolidation phases.
Conclusion:
The Momentum Flow Oscillator offers traders a versatile and visual approach to gauging market momentum and trend strength. By observing the interaction between the MFI and the SMA ribbon, traders can spot trend changes early, confirm existing trends, and stay out of choppy, sideways markets. Keep in mind that the ribbon is a slower-moving part of the indicator—perfect for trend-following strategies but less ideal for fast, reactive trades. Use this indicator to increase your confidence in your trading decisions and improve your ability to capture trends in the market.
Risk Matrix [QuantraSystems]Risk Matrix
The Risk Matrix is a sophisticated tool that aggregates a variety of fundamental inputs, primarily external (non-crypto) market data is used to assess investor risk appetite. By combining external macroeconomic factors and proxies for liquidity data with specific signals from the cryptomarket - the Risk Matrix provides a holistic view of market risk conditions. These insights are designed to help traders and investors make informed decisions on when to adopt a risk-on or risk-off approach.
Core Concept
The Risk Matrix functions as a dynamic risk assessment tool that integrates both fundamental and technical market indicators to generate an aggregated Z-score. This score helps traders to identify where the market is in a risk-off or risk-on state, The system provides both binary risk signals and a more nuanced “risk seasonality” mode for deeper analysis.
Key Features
Global Liquidity Aggregate - The Liquidity score is a custom measure of global liquidity, built by combining a variety of traditional financial metrics. These include data from central bank balance sheets, reverse repo operations and credit availability. This data is sourced from organizations such as the U.S. Federal Reserve, the European Central Bank, and the People’s Bank of China. The purpose of this aggregate is to gauge how much liquidity is available in the global financial system - which often correlates with risk sentiment. Rising liquidity tends to boost risk-on appetite, while liquidity contractions signal increased caution (risk-off) in the markets. The data sources used in this global liquidity aggregate include:
- U.S. Commercial Bank Credit data
- Federal Reserve balance sheet and reverse repo operations
- Liquidity from major central banks including the Fed, Bank of Japan, ECB, and PBoC
- Asset performance from major global financial indices such as the S&P 500, TLT, DXY (U.S. Dollar Index), MOVE (bond market volatility), and commodities like gold and oil.
Other key Z-scores (measured individually) - The Risk Matrix also incorporates other major Z-scores that represent different facets of the financial markets:
- Collateral Risk - A measure of US bond volatility, where higher values indicate higher interest rate risk - leading to potential market instability and cautious market behaviors.
- Stablecoin Dominance - The dominance of stablecoins in the crypto markets - which can signal risk aversion the total capital allocated to stables increases relative to other cryptocurrencies.
- US Currency Strength - The U.S. Dollar Index Z-score reflects currency market strength, with higher values typically indicating risk aversion as investors sell more volatile assets and flock to the dollar.
- Trans-pacific Monetary Bias - Signals capital flow and monetary trends that link between the East and West, heavily influencing global risk sentiment.
- Total - A measure of the total cryptocurrency market cap, signaling broader risk sentiment with the crypto market.
Neural Network Synthesis - The NNSYNTH component adds a machine learning inspired layer to the Risk Matrix. This custom indicator synthesizes inputs from various technical indicators (such as RSI, MACD, Bollinger Bands, and others) to generate a composite signal that reflects the health of the cryptomarket. While highly complex in its design, the NNSYNTH ultimately helps detect market shifts early by synthesizing multiple signals into one cohesive output. This score is particularly useful for gauging momentum and identifying potential turning points in market trends. Because the NNSYNTH is a closed source indicator, and it is included here, the Risk Matrix by extension is a closed source indicator.
How it Works
Z-score Aggregation - The Risk Matrix computes a final risk score by aggregating several Z-scores from different asset classes and data sources, all of which contribute proportionally to the overall market risk assessment. Each input is equally weighted - normalization allows for direct comparisons across global liquidity trends, currency fluctuations, bond market volatility and crypto market conditions. Furthermore, this system employs multi-calibration aggregation - where each individual matrix is itself an aggregate of multiple Z-scores derived from various timeframes. This ensures that each matrix captures a distinct average across different time horizons before being combined into the overall Risk Matrix. This layered, multi timeframe approach enhances the precision and robustness of the final Z-score.
Risk-On / Risk-Off Mode - The system’s binary mode provides a clear Risk On and Off signal. This nature of this signal is determined by the behavior of the Z-score relative to the midline, or Standard Deviation Bands, depending on specific conditions:
Risk-On is signaled when the aggregated final Z-score crosses above 0. However, in extreme oversold conditions, Risk-On can trigger early if the upper standard deviation band falls below the zero line. In such cases, the Risk-On signal is triggered when the z-score crosses the upper standard deviation band - without waiting to cross the midline.
Risk-Off is signaled when the final Z-score moves below 0. Similarly, Risk-Off can also be triggered early if the lower standard deviation band rises above the midline. In this instance, Risk-Off is triggered when the Z-score crosses below the lower band.
Risk Seasonality Mode - This mode offers a more gradual transition between risk states, measuring the change in the Z-score to visualize the shifts in risk appetite over time. It's useful for traders seeking to understand broader market cycles and risk phases. The seasonality view breaks down the market into the following phases:
Risk-On - High risk appetite where risk/cyclical markets are generally bullish.
Weakening - Markets showing signs of cooling off, here the higher beta assets tend to sell off first.
Risk-Off - Investors pull back, and bearish sentiment prevails.
Recovery - Signs of bottoming out, potential for market re-entry.
Component Matrices - Each individual Z-score is visualized as part of the component matrices - scaled to a 3 Sigma range. These component matrices allow traders to view how each data source is contributing to the overall risk assessment in real time - offering transparency and granularity.
Visuals and UI
Main Risk Matrix - The aggregated Z-Score is displayed saliently in the main risk matrix. Traders and investors can quickly see what season the Risk Matrix is signaling and adjust their strategies accordingly.
Overview Table - A detailed overview table shows the current confirmed Z-scores for each component, along with values from 2, and 3 bars back. This helps traders spot trends and the rate of change (RoC) between signals, offering additional insights for shorter-term risk management.
Customizability - Users can customize the visual elements of the matrix, including color palettes, table sizes, and positions. This allows for optimal integration into any trader’s existing workspace.
Usage Summary
The Risk Matrix is an incredibly versatile tool. It is especially valuable as a means of achieving a cross-market view of risk, incorporating both crypto-specific and macroeconomic factors. Some key use cases include:
Adjusting Capital Allocation Based on Risk Seasons - Traders can use the Risk Matrix to adjust their capital allocation dynamically. During Risk-On periods, they might increase exposure to long positions, capitalizing on stronger market conditions. Conversely, during Risk-Off periods, traders could reduce or hedge long positions and potentially scale up short positions or move into safer assets.
Complementing Other Trading Systems - The Risk Matrix can work alongside other technical systems to provide context to market moves. For instance, a trend-following strategy might suggest an entry, but the Risk Matrix could be used to verify whether the broader market conditions support this trade. If the Matrix is in a Risk-Off period, a trader might opt for more conservative trade sizes or avoid the trade entirely.
This flexibility allows traders to adjust their strategies and portfolio risk dynamically, enhancing decision making based on broader market conditions - as indicated by external macroeconomic factors, liquidity, and risk sentiment.
Important Note
The Risk Matrix always uses the most up-to-date data available, ensuring analysis reflects the latest market conditions and macroeconomic inputs. In rare cases, governments or financial institutions revise past data - and the Risk Matrix will adjust accordingly. This behavior can only be seen in the Liquidity Matrix. and can affect the final score. While this is uncommon, it highlights the benefit of using a system that adapts in real-time, incorporating the most accurate and current information to enhance decision making processes.
Comprehensive Market Overview1. What is this indicator about?
The "Comprehensive Market Overview" indicator provides a holistic view of the market by incorporating several key metrics:
Close Price: Displays the current close price below each candle.
Percent from All-Time High: Calculates how far the current close price is from the highest high observed over a specified period.
RSI (Relative Strength Index): Measures the momentum of price movements to assess whether a stock is overbought or oversold.
Volume Gain: Computes the current volume relative to its 20-period simple moving average (SMA), indicating volume strength or weakness.
Volatility: Quantifies market volatility by calculating the ratio of the Bollinger Bands' width (difference between upper and lower bands) to the SMA.
2. How it works?
Close Price Label: This label is displayed below each bar, showing the current close price.
Percent from All-Time High: Calculates the percentage difference between the highest high observed (all-time high) and the current close price.
RSI Calculation: Computes the RSI using a 14-period setting, providing insight into whether a stock is potentially overbought or oversold.
Volume Strength: Computes the current volume divided by its 20-period SMA, indicating whether volume is above or below average.
Volatility Calculation: Calculates the width of the Bollinger Bands (based on a 20-period SMA and 2 standard deviations) and expresses it as a percentage of the SMA, providing a measure of market volatility
3.Correct Trend Identification with Indicators
All-Time High (ATH) Levels:
Low Value (Near ATH): When the percent from ATH is low (close to 0%), it indicates that the current price is near the all-time high zone. This suggests strong bullish momentum and potential resistance levels.
High Value (Below ATH): A high percentage from ATH indicates how much the current price is below the all-time high. This could signal potential support levels or opportunities for price recovery towards previous highs.
RSI (Relative Strength Index):
Overbought (High RSI): RSI values above 70 typically indicate that the asset is overbought, suggesting a potential reversal or correction in price.
Oversold (Low RSI): RSI values below 30 indicate oversold conditions, suggesting a potential rebound or price increase.
Swing Trading Strategies
Confirmation with Visual Analysis: Visualizing the chart to confirm ATH levels and RSI readings can provide strong indications of market sentiment and potential trading opportunities:
Bullish Signals: Look for prices near ATH with RSI confirming strength (not yet overbought), indicating potential continuation or breakout.
Bearish Signals: Prices significantly below ATH with RSI showing weakness (not yet oversold), indicating potential for a bounce or reversal.
Volume Confirmation: Comparing current volume to its SMA helps confirm the strength of price movements. Higher current volume relative to the SMA suggests strong price action.
Volatility Assessment: Monitoring volatility through the Bollinger Bands' width ratio helps assess potential price swings. Narrow bands suggest low volatility, while wide bands indicate higher volatility and potential trading opportunities.
4.Entry and Exit Points:
Entry: Consider entering long positions near support levels when prices are below ATH and RSI is oversold. Conversely, enter short positions near resistance levels when prices are near ATH and RSI is overbought.
Exit: Exit long positions near resistance or ATH levels when prices show signs of resistance or RSI becomes overbought. Exit short positions near support levels or when prices rebound from oversold conditions.
Risk Management: Always incorporate risk management techniques such as setting stop-loss orders based on support and resistance levels identified through ATH and RSI analysis.

Support and Resistance Polynomial Regressions | Flux ChartsOverview
This script is a dynamic form of support and resistance. Support and resistance plots areas where price commonly reverses its direction or “pivots”. A resistance line for instance is typically found by locating a price point where multiple high pivots occur. A high pivot is where a price increases for a number of bars then decreases for a number of bars creating a local maximum. This script takes the high pivots points but rather than using a horizontal line a polynomial regressed line is used.
It is common to see consecutive higher highs or lower lows or a mixed pattern of both so a classical support or resistance line can be insufficient. This script lets users find a polynomial of best fit for high pivots and low pivots creating a resistance and support line respectively.
Here are the same two sets of high and low pivots the first using linear regressed support and resistance lines the second using quadratic.
Here are the predicted results:
The Quadratic regression gives a much more accurate prediction of future pivot areas and the increase in variance of the data.
Quick Start
Add the script to the chart. Then select a left point and right point on the chart. This will be the data the script uses to calculate a best fit resistance line. Then select another left and right point that will be for the support line.
Now you can confirm your basic settings like the type of regression: Linear Regression, Quadratic Regression, Cubic Regression or Custom Regression.
After confirming the lines will be plotted on the graph.
Custom Polynomial Regression Setting
Polynomials follow the form:
The degree of a polynomial is the highest exponent in the equation. For example the polynomial ax^2 + bx + c has a degree of 2.
Here are the default polynomial options and their equivalent custom polynomial entry:
This allows us to create regressions with a custom number of inflection points. An inflection point is a point where the graph changes from concave up to concave down or vice versa. The maximum number of inflection points a polynomial can have is the degree - 2. Having multiple inflection points in our regression allows for having a closer fit minimizing error.
It should be noted that having a closer fit is not inherently better; this can cause overfitting. Overfitting is when a model is too closely fit to the training data and not generalizable to the population data.
Smart Money Concept [TradingFinder] Major OB + FVG + Liquidity🔵 Introduction
"Smart Money" refers to funds under the control of institutional investors, central banks, funds, market makers, and other financial entities. Ordinary people recognize investments made by those who have a deep understanding of market performance and possess information typically inaccessible to regular investors as "Smart Money".
Consequently, when market movements often diverge from expectations, traders identify the footprints of smart money. For example, when a classic pattern forms in the market, traders take short positions. However, the market might move upward instead. They attribute this contradiction to smart money and seek to capitalize on such inconsistencies in their trades.
The "Smart Money Concept" (SMC) is one of the primary styles of technical analysis that falls under the subset of "Price Action". Price action encompasses various subcategories, with one of the most significant being "Supply and Demand", in which SMC is categorized.
The SMC method aims to identify trading opportunities by emphasizing the impact of large traders (Smart Money) on the market, offering specific patterns, techniques, and trading strategies.
🟣 Key Terms of Smart Money Concept (SMC)
• Market Structure (Trend)
• Change of Character (ChoCh)
• Break of Structure (BoS)
• Order Blocks (Supply and Demand)
• Imbalance (IMB)
• Inefficiency (IFC)
• Fair Value Gap (FVG)
• Liquidity
• Premium and Discount
🔵 How Does the "Smart Money Concept Indicator" Work?
🟣 Market Structure
a. Accumulation
b. Market-Up
c. Distribution
d. Market-Down
a) Accumulation Phase : During the accumulation period, typically following a downtrend, smart money enters the market without significantly affecting the pricing trend.
b) Market-Up Phase : In this phase, the price of an asset moves upward from the accumulation range and begins to rise. Usually, the buying by retail investors is the main driver of this trend, and due to positive market sentiment, it continues.
c) Distribution Phase : The distribution phase, unlike the accumulation stage, occurs after an uptrend. In this phase, smart money attempts to exit the market without causing significant price fluctuations.
d) Market-Down Phase : In this stage, the price of an asset moves downward from the distribution phase, initiating a prolonged downtrend. Smart money liquidates all its positions by creating selling pressure, trapping latecomer investors.
The result of these four phases in the market becomes the market trend.
Types of Trends in Financial Markets :
a. Up-Trend
b. Down Trend
c. Range (No Trend)
a) Up-Trend : The market breaks consecutive highs.
b) Down Trend : The market breaks consecutive lows.
c) No Trend or Range : The market oscillates within a range without breaking either highs or lows.
🟣 Change of Character (ChoCh)
The "ChoCh" or "Change of Character" pattern indicates an initial change in order flow in financial markets. This structural change occurs when a major pivot in the opposite direction of the market trend fails. It signals a potential change in the market trend and can serve as a signal for short-term or long-term trend changes in a trading symbol.
🟣 Break of Structure (BoS)
The "BoS" or "Break of Structure" pattern indicates the continuation of the trend in financial markets. This structure forms when, in an uptrend, the price breaks its ceiling or, in a downtrend, the price breaks its floor.
🟣 Order Blocks (Supply and Demand)
Order blocks consist of supply and demand areas where the likelihood of price reversal is higher. There are six order blocks in this indicator, categorized based on their origin and formation reasons.
a. Demand Main Zone, "ChoCh" Origin.
b. Demand Sub Zone, "ChoCh" Origin.
c. Demand All Zone, "BoS" Origin.
d. Supply Main Zone, "ChoCh" Origin.
e. Supply Sub Zone, "ChoCh" Origin.
f. Supply All Zone, "BoS" Origin.
🟣 FVG | Inefficiency | Imbalance
These three terms are almost synonymous. They describe the presence of gaps between consecutive candle shadows. This inefficiency occurs when the market moves rapidly. Primarily, imbalances and these rapid movements stem from the entry of smart money and the imbalance between buyer and seller power. Therefore, identifying these movements is crucial for traders.
These areas are significant because prices often return to fill these gaps or even before they occur to fill price gaps.
🟣 Liquidity
Liquidity zones are areas where there is a likelihood of congestion of stop-loss orders. Liquidity is considered the driving force of the entire market, and market makers may manipulate the market using these zones. However, in many cases, this does not happen because there is insufficient liquidity in some areas.
Types of Liquidity in Financial Markets :
a. Trend Lines
b. Double Tops | Double Bottoms
c. Triple Tops | Triple Bottoms
d. Support Lines | Resistance Lines
All four types of liquidity in this indicator are automatically identified.
🟣 Premium and Discount
Premium and discount zones can assist traders in making better decisions. For instance, they may sell positions in expensive ranges and buy in cheaper ranges. The closer the price is to the major resistance, the more expensive it is, and the closer it is to the major support, the cheaper it is.
🔵 How to Use
🟣 Change of Character (ChoCh) and Break of Structure (BoS)
This indicator detects "ChoCh" and "BoS" in both Minor and Major states. You can turn on the display of these lines by referring to the last part of the settings.
🟣 Order Blocks (Supply and Demand)
Order blocks are Zones where the probability of price reversal is higher. In demand Zones you can buy opportunities and in supply Zones you can check sell opportunities.
The "Refinement" feature allows you to adjust the width of the order block according to your strategy. There are two modes, "Aggressive" and "Defensive," in the "Order Block Refine". The difference between "Aggressive" and "Defensive" lies in the width of the order block.
For risk-averse traders, the "Defensive" mode is suitable as it provides a lower loss limit and a greater reward-to-risk ratio. For risk-taking traders, the "Aggressive" mode is more appropriate. These traders prefer to enter trades at higher prices, and this mode, which has a wider order block width, is more suitable for this group of individuals.
🟣 Fair Value Gap (FVG) | Imbalance (IMB) | Inefficiency (IFC)
In order to identify the "fair value gap" on the chart, it must be analyzed candle by candle. In this process, it is important to pay attention to candles with a large size, and a candle and a candle should be examined before that.
Candles before and after this central candle should have long shadows and their bodies should not overlap with the central candle body. The distance between the shadows of the first and third candles is known as the FVG range.
These areas work in two ways :
• Supply and demand area : In this case, the price reacts to these areas and the trend is reversed.
• Liquidity zone : In this scenario, the price "fills" the zone and then reaches the order block.
Important note : In most cases, the FVG zone of very small width acts as a supply and demand zone, while the zone of significant width acts as a liquidity zone and absorbs price.
When the FVG filter is activated, the FVG regions are filtered based on the specified algorithm.
FVG filter types include the following :
1. Very Aggressive Mode : In addition to the initial condition, an additional condition is considered. For bullish FVG, the maximum price of the last candle must be greater than the maximum price of the middle candle.
Similarly, for a bearish FVG, the minimum price of the last candle must be lower than the minimum price of the middle candle. This mode removes the minimum number of FVGs.
2. Aggressive : In addition to the very aggressive condition, the size of the middle candle is also considered. The size of the center candle should not be small and therefore more FVGs are removed in this case.
3. Defensive : In addition to the conditions of the very aggressive mode, this mode also considers the size of the middle pile, which should be relatively large and make up the majority of the body.
Also, to identify bullish FVGs, the second and third candles must be positive, while for bearish FVGs, the second and third candles must be negative. This mode filters out a significant number of FVGs and keeps only those of good quality.
4. Very Defensive : In addition to the conditions of the defensive mode, in this mode the first and third candles should not be very small-bodied doji candles. This mode filters out most FVGs and only the best quality ones remain.
🟣 Liquidity
These levels are where traders intend to exit their trades. "Market makers" or smart money usually accumulate or distribute their trading positions near these levels, where many retail traders have placed their "stop loss" orders. When liquidity is collected from these losses, the price often reverses.
A "Stop hunt" is a move designed to offset liquidity generated by established stop losses. Banks often use major news events to trigger stop hunts and capture liquidity released into the market. For example, if they intend to execute heavy buy orders, they encourage others to sell through stop-hots.
Consequently, if there is liquidity in the market before reaching the order block area, the validity of that order block is higher. Conversely, if the liquidity is close to the order block, that is, the price reaches the order block before reaching the liquidity limit, the validity of that order block is lower.
🟣 Alert
With the new alert functionality in this indicator, you won't miss any important trading signals. Alerts are activated when the price hits the last order block.
1. It is possible to set alerts for each "symbol" and "time frame". The system will automatically detect both and include them in the warning message.
2. Each alert provides the exact date and time it was triggered. This helps you measure the timeliness of the signal and evaluate its relevance.
3. Alerts include target order block price ranges. The "Proximal" level represents the initial price level strike, while the "Distal" level represents the maximum price gap in the block. These details are included in the warning message.
4. You can customize the alert name through the "Alert Name" entry.
5. Create custom messages for "long" and "short" alerts to be sent with notifications.

🎯Key Features (in-depth):
The Fast Oscillator within Momentum Concepts™ comprises four components designed to provide insights into short-term momentum dynamics:
🔱Price Volume Swings :
This confirmation component uses our proprietary Price Volume Algorithm to analyze price action and volume to identify buying and selling pressure, aiding traders in spotting short-term swings for potential trading opportunities.
⚜️Price Volume Waves :
This leading component also uses our proprietary Price Volume Algorithm but differs from the Price Volume Swings by capturing dominant wave patterns instead. This indicator breaks down price and volume data into a wave-like plot which enables leading insights into market momentum due to the relatively predicable nature of sine-like waves. Leading components such as this and the Alpha Wave are best used with other confirmation components within the Momentum Concepts™ .
🌊Alpha Wave :
The Alpha Wave is a leading non-volume alternative to the Price Volume Waves . It reflects market momentum by analyzing price action only instead of using volume data, resulting in a normalized wave-like plot similar to that of the Price Volume Waves , offering a leading perspective on potential market momentum shifts. Leading components such as this and the Price Volume Waves are best used with other confirmation components within the Momentum Concepts™ .
🐲Dragon RSI :
The Dragon RSI is a confirmation component that determines market momentum by analyzing the directional movement of the Relative Strength Index (RSI). By doing so, users are able to visually identify the current short term trend of the market as well as identify overbought and oversold conditions.
Reversal Signals :
All the Fast Oscillator components come with reversal signals that are based on the respective components being either oversold or overbought.
Divergences :
All the Fast Oscillator components come with bullish and bearish divergences. Divergences within the Fast Oscillator components of Momentum Concepts ™ offer crucial signals for trend shifts. 🔱 Price Volume Swings and ⚜️ Price Volume Waves detect weakening buying or selling pressure, signalling potential reversals or continuations. 🌊 Alpha Wave and 🐲 Dragon RSI identify divergences between momentum and price, aiding traders in anticipating market movements. Leveraging these divergences enhances analysis, aiding traders in formulating meaningful analysis.
Customizable Signal Processing Methods :
All the Fast Oscillator components come with customizable signal processing methods to identify trends on the Fast Oscillator , they include (but not limited to) methods such as Heiken Ashi, and a vast selection of Moving Averages.
Diminishing Momentum Warning :
All the Fast Oscillator components come with a diminishing momentum warning that represents a reducing momentum on the Fast Oscillator . This can act as a take profit signal or as a precautionary warning that the price is about to change direction soon even though the Fast Oscillator has not detected it yet.
Dynamically Colored Reversal Zones :
Last but not least, the dynamic coloring of the reversal zones for Fast Oscillator can be customised based on either the reversal probability of the Fast Oscillator or based on the overall trend confluence of all the components within the Momentum Concepts™ indicator.
The Momentum Impulse Oscillator in Momentum Concepts™ offers crucial insights into long-term momentum trends, aiding traders in identifying the underlying momentum regime and differentiating between trending and consolidating markets.
Underlying Momentum Bias
By default, the Momentum Impulse Oscillator is set to show the longer term trend of price action, this can be used to set the directional bias for the markets and prevent users from trading against the trend.
Trending/Ranging Detection
The Momentum Impulse Oscillator comes with the option to enable trending thresholds, when the Momentum Impulse Oscillator is beyond these thresholds, it indicates a trending market, when Momentum Impulse Oscillator is within the thresholds, it indicates a consolidating/ranging market.
The Scalper's Momentum within Momentum Concepts™ furnishes traders with nuanced signals ideal for short to medium-term trading strategies. It efficiently displays both the medium-term momentum and any emerging divergences towards the opposing direction.
Medium-Term Momentum
The Scalper's Momentum is designed to fill the analysis gap between the Fast Oscillator and the Momentum Impulse Oscillator . Showing momentum insights over the medium-term.
Momentum Convergence-Divergence
The Scalper's Momentum is also capable of showing momentum convergences and divergences, which can be used as take-profit and/or confirmation signals to other components within Momentum Concepts™ .
The Hidden Liquidity Flow component of Momentum Concepts™ is designed to uncover underlying liquidity dynamics. This feature enables traders to anticipate potential price movements based on changes in liquidity flow, enhancing their ability to make informed trading decisions.
Underlying Liquidity Dynamics
The Hidden Liquidity Flow shows the underlying liquidity flow of the market, a positive liquidity flow indicates that liquidity is entering the market and increasing the probability of bullish price action, the opposite is true for negative liquidity flows.
Excess Liquidity Flow
The Hidden Liquidity Flow also indicates when there is an abnormal amount of liquidity flowing through the market, this can indicate the potential for volatility and explosive price action.
🎯Usage Examples:
Now that we have gone through the components and features of Momentum Concepts™ in detail, we'll walk you through the usage examples and strategies that you can utilise to navigate the markets.
Scalping
Using the Scalper's Momentum and the Fast Oscillator as an example, users can first use the Scalper's Momentum as a directional bias and the Fast Oscillator as a means of timing a more precise entry. Take profits can be based on either the Diminishing Momentum Warnings or the Fast Oscillator flipping signals or the Scalper's Momentum flipping signals.
Buying the Dip/Shorting the Pump
Using the Momentum Impulse Oscillator and the Fast Oscillator as an example, users will need to first determine the underlying trend with the Momentum Impulse Oscillator , after which they can use the Fast Oscillator for entry signals into the trend. Take profits can be based on either the Diminishing Momentum Warnings or the Fast Oscillator flipping signals
Reversal Trading
Using the Momentum Impulse Oscillator on a timeframe roughly 3-4 times greater than the chart's timeframe and the Fast Oscillator as an example, users will need to first ensure that the Momentum Impulse Oscillator signals a ranging market on a higher timeframe, divergence signals from the Fast Oscillator can then be used as entries. Take profits can be based on either the Diminishing Momentum Warnings or the Fast Oscillator flipping signals or the Fast Oscillator reaching the zero line.
(These are just examples for reference, the Momentum Concepts™ offers significantly more possibilities for customisation and fine tuning of your trading strategy.)
🎯Conclusion:
In conclusion, Momentum Concepts™ stands as a versatile and powerful tool for traders seeking to decode the intricacies of market momentum across multiple time horizons.

Wave Pendulum Trend [QuantraSystems]Wave Pendulum Trend
Introduction
The Wave Pendulum Trend (𝓟𝓮𝓷𝓭𝓾𝓵𝓾𝓶 𝓣𝓻𝓮𝓷𝓭) extrapolates market trends using physical principles derived from waves and pendulums. This indicator is a bespoke build, and its performance and behavior cannot be compared to existing indicators.
It is designed for trend following but is also effective for identifying mean reversions, momentum strength, and shows range-bound market periods within the dynamic bands.
In order to ascertain a smooth yet rapid trend direction of the market, the 𝓟𝓮𝓷𝓭𝓾𝓵𝓾𝓶 𝓣𝓻𝓮𝓷𝓭 combines several factors. A bespoke set of functions captures the momentum of price movements and dynamically weighs it over time. The indicator then extrapolates acceleration from the change in delta of price movements.
Legend
With bar coloring enabled, the price section mirrors current trend conditions. Please keep this feature disabled if you intend to use multiple indicators to avoid confusion.
The 𝓟𝓮𝓷𝓭𝓾𝓵𝓾𝓶 𝓣𝓻𝓮𝓷𝓭 presents extensive market insights. The purple and green bands around the oscillator signal the selected standard deviation (default σ = 2), for the trader to calculate how common the trending movements are in relation to the selected asset’s history.
The inner, dynamic thresholds, indicated by the blue “Range-bound market” label in the graphic above, border the area that signals a ranging market if both 𝓐𝓬𝓬𝓮𝓵𝓮𝓻𝓪𝓽𝓲𝓸𝓷 and 𝓜𝓸𝓶𝓮𝓷𝓽𝓾𝓶 signals remain inside. If either line exceeds these thresholds, care is advised as a shift in market behavior is underway.
“Trend strength” in the graphic provides a good estimate for the trending movements strength.
If the signal lines exceed the set standard deviation in non-classic mode, a reversal is very likely.
Case Study
As shown in the above case study we see two profitable swing trades on the 4H chart of Ethereum. Please note the display variant here is set to “Heikin-Ashi”.
We always recommend using a multitude of indicators to attain multiple signals on the likelihood of opening the correct position. However, this standalone scenario serves as an example on how the 𝓟𝓮𝓷𝓭𝓾𝓵𝓾𝓶 𝓣𝓻𝓮𝓷𝓭 added two profitable swing trades.
The first short trade was opened after the 𝓐𝓬𝓬𝓮𝓵𝓮𝓻𝓪𝓽𝓲𝓸𝓷 and 𝓜𝓸𝓶𝓮𝓷𝓽𝓾𝓶 reversed after crossing the threshold of standard deviation. This trade offered a late entry only, these two factors were followed late by the third signal in this case – the trend reversal. Such a trade would require additional indicators to signal at the same time, so the trader can get more confirmations. The trade was closed after 6D with an 8% gain on a 1x short position.
The second trade is a long position that enters in the same manner. The trader takes the reversal beyond the select standard deviation as a likely entry. After 7D a triple confirmation was received, as indicated by the triangle, that a reversal or at least a plateau is extremely likely. The trade was closed after 7D with a 17.23% gain on a 1x long position.

Notes
Quantra Standard Value Contents:
The Heikin-Ashi (HA) candle visualization smoothes out the signal line to provide more informative insights into momentum and trends. This allows earlier entries and exits by observing the indicator values transformed by the HA.
Various visualization options are available to adjust the indicator to the user’s preference: Aside from HA, a classic line, or a hybrid of both.
A special feature of Quantra’s indicators is that they are probabilistically built - therefore they work well as confluence and can easily be stacked to increase signal accuracy.
To add to Quantra's indicators’ utility we have added the option to change the price bars colors based on different signals:
Settings: TEMA and DEMA length settings should be longer compared to other Moving Averages (MAs). Due to its complex calculations, the indicator requires a larger amount of historical data for accurate computation.
Sensitivity to Divergences: The Wave Pendulum Trend is particularly sensitive to divergences, making it a useful tool in spotting potential trend reversals or continuations.
Trend Following and Reversions: While it is primarily used for trend following, it also excels in identifying market reversions.
Momentum and Acceleration: The interaction between momentum and acceleration is a key feature of this indicator.
Visualization: The indicator offers various visualization options, including bar coloring based on HA Candles and extremes and trends. It also introduces a novel approach to visualizing the oscillator in the "Classic" mode and provides an adjustable Standard Deviation (SD) measure for reversal signals in non-classic modes.
Choose Mode for Coloring
Trend Following (Indicator above mid line counts as uptrend, below is downtrend)
Extremes (Everything beyond the SD bands is highlighted to signal mean reversion)
Candles (Color of HA candles as barcolor)
Reversions (Only for HA) (Reversion Signals via the triangles if HA candles change trend while beyond the SD bands, high probability entries/exits)
Methodology
The methodology behind the Wave Pendulum Trend is inspired by wave and pendulum theories to extrapolate market moves. By calculating the momentum and its acceleration from price data, it provides a nuanced view of the market trend.
Traders should observe the color coding, which reflects the interplay between momentum, acceleration, and set thresholds for acceleration. The Signal Mode is particularly useful for quickly identifying trend, momentum, and acceleration exhaustions.
Additionally, the indicator can help filter out ranges with insufficient momentum acceleration. Traders are encouraged to experiment with this mode and adjust the threshold settings to suit their strategies.
MTF External Range Liquidity - SMC IndicatorsThe Multi-Timeframe External Range Liquidity highlights possible “Key Liquidity Zones” above and below Short-Term highs and lows. Allowing for the filtering out of shorter-term swings and easily identifying levels for possible “liquidity runs” or “stop runs”.
Purged Liquidity
This shows areas where the price has already reached above previous key highs or below previous key lows. Recognizing “Purged Liquidity” areas is useful for historical analysis and understanding prior liquidity-driven movements.
Open Liquidity
These mark possible or potential Open Liquidity Zones where the price might reach above or below short-term key highs and lows.
Multi-Timeframe Analysis
The Multi Timeframe Feature allows traders to have all “key Liquidity Levels” from higher and lower timeframes relative to the current timeframe. (Weekly and down to the 1-Minute Chart) while trading in real-time allowing the trader to keep the higher time frame “levels” in mind when trading on lower time frames.
1W BSL & 1W SSL indicate levels of transposed from the Weekly timeframe to the Daily timeframe or lower.
1D BSL & 1D SSL indicate levels of transposed from the Daily timeframe to the 4H timeframe or lower.
4H BSL & 4H SSL indicate levels of transposed from the 4H timeframe to the 1H timeframe or lower.
1H BSL & 1H SSL indicate levels of transposed from the 1H timeframe to the 15M timeframe or lower.
15M BSL & 15M SSL indicate levels of transposed from the 15M timeframe to the 5M timeframe or lower.
5M BSL & 5M SSL indicate levels of transposed from the 5M timeframe to the timeframes lower than 5M.
How This Can Help with Analysis
Timing Entries
This tool can be used to look for possible entry levels by looking at where the last run on liquidity (Purged Liquidity) above a previous key high or low was. The trader would use this indicator by waiting until the liquidity is purged before looking for a possible trade setup.
This helps in waiting for entries and may avoid or reduce the number of entries where the trade would get stopped due to an early entry.
Setting Possible Targets
This indicator can be used to look for higher time frame “Open Liquidity” key levels above short-term highs or below short-term lows as potential targets.
Other Key Features
Alerts on selected time frame “key levels”
Choose to show and hide levels on any timeframe.
Choose the number of the Purged and Open Liquidity desired to show on the chart.
Highlights the Daily, Weekly, and Monthly Highs and Lows.
PhantomFlow TrendDetectorThe TrendDetector calculates waves on the chart using the built-in ZigZag indicator and detects a trend change after the last high/low update occurs in a minimum sequence of non-updated highs/lows. This assumes a continuation of the trend for the subsequent update of the remaining high/low.
For trend determination:
When you see a pink or light yellow trend color, it means that a new trend may potentially be emerging right now, and you can join it almost at the beginning. So, if you see patterns from your trading system aligning with the TrendDetector indicator and they have the same direction, it further increases the likelihood of your plan working out.
In the case where the trend phase has a red or green color, it may indicate that the primary market impulse has already occurred, and therefore, joining the trend at this time may not be advisable.
For trade entry:
Additionally, you can use the indicator specifically for entering the market using market orders. Depending on the timeframe (the smaller the timeframe, the more confirmation candles are needed), you can open a trade when one trend replaces another at the close, for example, the second candle in the case of a 10-minute timeframe. Stop-loss can be placed under the signal candle, a local peak, or a reversal trend valley, a global peak, or a reversal trend valley. In the example above, the second option was used.

Crypto Spot/Futures Dominance Indicator with AlertsFutures/Spot Dominance Indicator:
Overview:
The futures/spot dominance indicator is a versatile tool used by traders and analysts to assess the relative strength or dominance of the futures market in relation to the spot (or cash) market for a specific asset. It offers insights into market sentiment, potential arbitrage opportunities, and risk management while incorporating the VWAP indicator for added context.
How It Works:
This indicator automatically detects and adapts to the futures symbol applied to the chart, simplifying the setup for traders. However, it still necessitates manual input of the corresponding spot pair to ensure accuracy.
Automatic Futures Symbol Detection: The indicator starts by automatically detecting the futures symbol on the trading chart, eliminating the need for manual configuration. This ensures that the indicator is applied to the correct futures contract.
Manual Spot Pair Entry: To provide a reliable reference point for the comparison, traders must manually input the corresponding spot symbol via the indicator's inputs. For instance, if the indicator detects the BTCUSDT.P futures symbol, traders would manually enter the BTCUSDT spot symbol.
Gathering Data: The indicator collects historical price data for both the detected futures contract and the manually specified spot symbol. This data includes open, high, low, and close prices, as well as trading volume.
VWAP Calculation: To gain a deeper understanding of price trends and market dynamics, the indicator calculates the VWAP (Volume Weighted Average Price) for both the futures and spot markets. The VWAP places more weight on prices with higher trading volume, offering a weighted average that reflects market consensus.
Premium/Discount Calculation: By subtracting the VWAP of the spot market from the VWAP of the futures market, the indicator quantifies the premium or discount of the futures price concerning the spot price. A positive value indicates a premium, while a negative value suggests a discount.
Plotting: The premium/discount value is displayed as a line on the chart, often alongside moving averages or other smoothing techniques for improved trend analysis.
Alerts: In addition to its analysis capabilities, this indicator now includes alerts to enhance your trading experience. It alerts you in the following scenarios:
Premium Above Average: Notifies you when the premium crosses above the average line.
Premium Below Average: Alerts you when the premium crosses below the average line.
Premium Above Zero: Provides an alert when the premium crosses above the zero line.
Premium Below Zero: Generates an alert when the premium crosses below the zero line.
Benefits of the Futures/Spot Dominance Indicator:
Sentiment Analysis: Traders use the indicator to assess market sentiment. A futures premium might signify bullish sentiment, while a discount could indicate bearish sentiment.
Arbitrage Opportunities: Identifying price discrepancies between futures and spot markets can help traders spot arbitrage opportunities, where they can profit from price differentials.
Risk Management: The indicator assists in evaluating risks associated with futures positions, helping traders manage their exposure effectively.
Trend Confirmation: When used in conjunction with other technical indicators, futures/spot dominance, along with VWAP, can provide additional confirmation of price trends.
Hedging: Investors and corporations use this tool to gauge the effectiveness of hedging strategies based on futures contracts.
Speculative Trading: Traders and investors use the indicator to inform speculative positions, aligning their trades with perceived market strength or weakness.
Insightful Analysis: Futures/spot dominance analysis, enriched by VWAP data, offers insights into market behavior during specific events or changes in economic conditions.
In summary, the futures/spot dominance indicator, with its integration of VWAP and automatic futures symbol detection, provides traders and investors with a comprehensive tool to assess market dynamics. It aids in sentiment analysis, risk management, and trend confirmation while offering potential arbitrage opportunities. The newly added alerts enhance the indicator's functionality, providing timely notifications of key market events. However, it relies on manual input of the corresponding spot pair to ensure precise comparisons between futures and spot markets. It should be used alongside other analysis techniques for a well-rounded view of the market.
[ADOL_]Trend_Oscillators_MTF
ENG) Trend_Oscillator_MTF
introduction)
This is a trend analyzer implemented in the form of an oscillator.
An oscillator is a technical analysis tool that identifies the direction of market trends and determines the time period. Making it an oscillator means creating range. By setting the upper and lower limits like this, the unlimited expansion area that can appear on the chart is limited. As a limited area is created, we can identify oversold and overbought areas, which is good for checking momentum.
Through oscillatorization, you can find overbought, oversold, and current trend areas.
It adopts MTF and is a simple but functional indicator.
To use multiple time frames, use the timeframe.multiplier function.
A table was created using the table.new function, and various information windows were installed on the right side of the chart.
I hope this can be a destination for many travelers looking for good landmarks.
- 8 types of moving averages can be selected (in addition to independently developed moving averages), trend area display, signal display, up to 3 multi-time chart overlapping functions, information table display, volatility and whipsaw search, and alerts are possible.
- You can set various time zones in Timeframe. With three timeframes, you can check the conditions overlapping time at a glance.
principle)
Set up two moving averages with different speeds and make the relative difference.
Create the speed difference between the two moving averages using methods such as over = crossover(fast, slow) and under = crossunder(fast, slow).
The point at which the difference in relative speed decreases is where the possibility of inflection is high. Through the cross code, you can find out when the speed difference becomes 0.
Simply crossing the moving average is easy. To fine-tune the speed difference, it is necessary to re-establish the relationship between functions.
Painting the green and red areas is designed to be painted when the three time frames overlap.
Using the code of fill(fast, slow, color = fast>= slow? color.green: color.red, transp = 80, title = "fillcolor")
You can color and distinguish areas.
MA: You can select the MA_type. This is a necessary option because the profit/loss ratio for each item varies depending on the type of moving average.
Start: The starting value to set the oscillator range.
End: This is the last value to set the oscillator range.
Lenght: This is the number of candles used to calculate the calculation formula in the oscillator.
Timeframe: Set the time to overlap with up to 3 time frames.
repaint: You can choose whether to apply repaint. The default is OFF.
The coding for repaint settings for the indicator was written using the recommended method recommended by TradingView.
reference :
security(syminfo.tickerid, tf, src)
Trading method)
With the Multi-Time-Frame (MTF) function, the time zone set in the indicator is displayed the same in any chart time zone.
The repaint problem that occurred when using MTF was resolved by referring to TradingView's recommended code.
User can decide whether to repaint or not. The default is OFF.
- signal
Buy and Sell signals are displayed when there are 3 stacks. Even if there is no triple overlap, you can decide to buy or sell at the point where the short-term line and long-term line intersect.
Entry is determined through Buy and Sell signals, and exit is determined through BL (BuyLoss) and SL (SellLoss).
BL and SL can also be applied as entry.
You can judge overlap by the color of the lines. When two conditions overlap, it is orange, and when one condition overlaps, it is blue.
- Divergence
Divergence is a signal that arises from a discrepancy between the oscillator and the actual price.
Divergence can be identified because the range is set with conditions that have upper and lower limits.
- trend line
As shown in the picture, draw a downward trend line connecting the high points in the same area.
As shown in the picture, an upward trend line is drawn connecting the low points in the same area.
It can be used to view trend line breakout points that candles cannot display.
- Find a property for sale by amplitude
When the low point in the red area and the high point in the green area occur, the difference is regarded as one amplitude and the range is set.
Here, one amplitude becomes a pattern value that can go up or down, and this pattern value acts as support/resistance. It was developed in a unique way that is different from traditional methods and has a high standard of accuracy. This works best when using that indicator. Use 1, 2, 3, or 4 multiples of the amplitude range.
A multiple of 2 is a position with a high probability of a retracement.
- Whipsaw & volatility search section
Whipsaw refers to a trick that causes frequent trading in a convergence zone or confuses the trend in the opposite direction before it occurs. Whip saws are usually seen as having technical limitations that are difficult to overcome.
To overcome this problem, the indicator was created to define a section where whipsaw and volatility can appear. If a whipsaw & volatility indicator section occurs, a big move may occur later.

Buy와 Sell 시그널에서 진입을 결정하고 BL(BuyLoss)와 SL(SellLoss) 에서 exit를 결정합니다.
BL과 SL을 진입으로 응용할 수도 있습니다.
라인의 컬러로 중첩을 판단할 수 있습니다. 2개의 조건이 중첩되면 오렌지, 1개의 조건이 중첩되면 블루컬러입니다.
- 다이버전스
다이버전스는 오실레이터와 실제 가격의 불일치에서 발생하는 신호입니다.
상한과 하한이 있는 조건으로 범위를 설정하였기 때문에 다이버전스를 식별가능합니다.
- 추세선
그림과 같이 같은 영역의 고점을 이어 하락추세선을 긋습니다.
그림과 같이 같은 영역의 저점을 이어 상승추세선을 긋습니다.
캔들이 표시할 수 없는 추세선돌파 지점을 볼 수 있게 활용가능합니다.
- 진폭으로 매물대 찾기
빨간색 영역의 저점과 초록색 영역의 고점이 발생할 때, 그 차이를 하나의 진폭으로 보고 범위를 설정합니다.
여기서 하나의 진폭은 위나 아래로 갈 수 있는 패턴값이 되며, 이 패턴값은 지지/저항으로 작용합니다. 전통적인 방식에 없는 독창적인 방식으로 개발된 것으로 정확성 높은 기준입니다. 이것은 해당 지표를 사용할 때 가장 잘 맞습니다. 진폭 범위의 1배수,2배수,3배수,4배수 자리를 사용합니다.
2배수 자리는 다시 돌아오는 되돌림 확률이 높은 위치입니다.
- 휩쏘&변동성 찾기 구간
휩쏘는 수렴구간에서 잦은 매매를 유발하거나, 추세가 발생하기 전에 반대방향으로 혼란을 주는 속임수를 의미합니다. 휩쏘는 보통 극복하기 어려운 기술적 한계로 여겨집니다.
해당지표에서는 이를 극복하기 위해 휩쏘와 변동성이 나타날 수 있는 구간을 정의하도록 만들었습니다. 휩쏘&변동성 표시 구간이 발생하면 이후 큰 움직임이 발생할 수 있습니다.

Algo Targets [Premium]The Algo Targets indicator includes a suite of tools that attempt to identify market maker liquidity targets in advance.
These levels can be used by traders to determine:
1. future support/resistance
2. entries/exits
3. directional bias
4. potential reversal levels
5. pullback targets
The script uses a proprietary prediction model based on specific candle sequences, historical moves and volatility projections.
These tools have been live tested across a variety of instruments and timeframes, but should be backtested against your preferred ticker for best performance.
Primary Features:
1. Anchors
Anchors are derived from a simple, but powerful, three-candle breakout pattern. We have found that this pattern, when combined with the relative position to previous Anchor patterns on the chart, gives us clues to predicting future price structure.
Common use case: The simplest way to trade Anchors is to know that price *almost always* makes a return visit. This can be a useful tool for reversal traders. Additionally, Anchors often occur just before strong directional momentum. This can be useful for trend traders looking for entry signals.
Power User feature: Projected Ranges can be enabled in Settings. Each Anchor provides a Retracement leg (measured as the midpoint between the last two Anchors) and an Expansion leg (measured as twice the size of the Retracement leg, projected in the opposite direction). If Projected Ranges are enabled, the directional bias is also highlighted within the range, making it easy to spot at a glance.
Caveats: Expansion legs require patience and solid risk management. Additionally, the Expansion leg contains an additional Trigger level which price MUST cross before we consider the Expansion leg to be "in play" as a valid price target. This Trigger is marked on each Expansion legs as a dotted line.
Please note, Anchors require a 3 candle lookback before they are printed to the chart.
2. Target Zones
Target Zones are an advanced feature, and can be enabled in the Settings panel.
Each Target Zone consists of three levels:
Trigger — This the level closest to the current price. We expect it to act as a support/resistance level until price breaks through.
Target — This is the level farthest from the price. This is how far price is likely to move AFTER crossing the Trigger.
Midpoint — This is the level between the Trigger and Target. If price enters a Target Zone and wicks off of the Midpoint line, it’s usually a reversal signal. In this case we would cut our trade, consider the Target “filled” and potentially enter a reversal trade.
Common use case: When prices crosses a Trigger into a Target Zone, we consider that Target level to be “unlocked.” Our expectation is that price will gravitate toward the Target.
Power User feature: There are many strategies that a trader can build around Target Zones. One of our favorites is to use Targets strictly as reversal entries. On ranging days, price will often wick off of a Target level, before making a quick move in the opposite direction.
Caveats: After a Target is unlocked, it may be reached within the next few bars, or it may be saved by the market algorithms for later. Keep an eye on the Midpoint for potential reversals, and as always, proper risk management is key.
IMPORTANT: The presence of a Target Zone on the chart is neither bullish not bearish by itself. We consider the Target to be in play if, AND ONLY IF, price has crossed the Trigger level.
3. Pullback Levels
Pullback Levels are algorithmically detected return levels. They usually act as a strong draw on price, and often appear just before a pullback in price.
Common use case: The simplest way to use Pullbacks is to look for ones that have not been filled, either from a previous day or in after-hours/pre-market. We use them for confirmation bias along with Anchors and unlocked Targets.
Power User feature: For day trading, we set Alerts on our favorite tickers for any detected Pullbacks on the 5 min chart. This usually gives us plenty of time to review the chart for a possible day trade entry.
Settings:
All features are customizable, including color, line length and visibility. This lets you keep your chart as clean as you like, while only displaying additional data when it is needed.
Alerts:
Alerts can be set for all features, with the ability to set bearish and bullish alerts separately, depending on your trading preference. It is recommended to use "Once Per Bar Close" when you create an alert.
Mobius - Trend Pivot// Mobius
// V01.01.29.2019
// Uses trend of higher highs with higher lows and trend of lower lows with lower highs to locate pivots. Distance for trend is set by the user. Confirmation of a reversal from pivots is set with a multiple of the pivot bars range. That multiple is also a user input.
// Trading Rules
// 1) Trade when price crosses and closes outside the pivot Confirmation line. At that point looking for best entry. Min trade is 2 contracts
// 2) Know your risk point before entering trade. Typical risk point is the pivot line itself. If your risk is crossed look for an exit. Never use hard stops - you'll often get out for little or no loss
// 3) Know your Risk off point before entering. Typical Risk Off is an ATR multiple. Offer Risk Off as soon as possible for a Risk Free trade
// 4) set mental stop one tick above entry when Risk Off is achieved
// 5) if trade continues your way move mental stop for your runner to last support / resistance each time a new support / resistance is hit.
The script is an indicator called "Mobius - Trend Pivot" and is designed to be overlaid on price charts. It utilizes a concept called "Mobius - Trend Pivot" to identify potential reversal points in the market based on the trend of higher highs with higher lows and lower lows with lower highs. The user can adjust the parameters through input variables. The script expects two inputs: "n" and "R_Mult." The "n" input determines the distance for trend calculation, and the "R_Mult" input is used for confirming a reversal from the pivots. The script calculates the True Range, which is the maximum of the current bar's high minus the previous bar's close or the previous bar's close minus the current bar's low. It then identifies the highest high (hh) and lowest low (ll) based on the trend criteria using the input variable "n." The script plots lines representing the pivot points, their confirmation levels, and risk-off levels. It also generates alerts when the price crosses above or below the confirmation or risk-off levels. Additionally, it plots shapes (arrows) on the chart to indicate bullish or bearish conditions based on the crossover or crossunder of the price with the pivot levels.
RD Key Levels (Weekly, Daily, Previous vWAP)The RexDog Key Levels indicator plots the weekly open, daily open, and the previous day vWAP close.
These are all critical price levels (zones) to know when trading any market or instrument. These areas are also high probability reaction areas that you can trade using simple confirmation trading patterns.
First, I'll cover an overview of the indicator then I'll share general usage tips.
Weekly Open - default is white/orange. White is when price is above the weekly open. Orange is when price is below the weekly open.
Weekly High/Low - there are options to turn on the weekly high and lows. Default plot is circles. Green is the high. Red is the low.
Daily Open - default is green/red. Green is when price is above the daily open. Red is when price is below the daily open.
Previous vWAPs - aqua single lines. These are the closing price of the daily vWAPs.
Top Indicators - The triangles at the top of the chart signify is price is currently above or below the weekly open. This is helpful on lower timeframe charts (5m, 15m) to get a quick indication when price is far extended beyond the weekly open. Green triangle = above weekly open. Red triangle = below weekly open.
General Usage
Each one of these levels are important levels markets look use for continuation or failure of momentum and bias. I also find it extremely helpful to think of these levels as magnets, dual magnets. They both attract and repel price at the same time. Now you might say, how is that helpful to have opposing views at the same time? Be indifferent to direction, create your own rules on when these price zones repel or attract price, I have my own.
Here's the easiest way to use these price levels.
As price approaches one of these levels to expect a reaction. A reaction is price is going in one direction and price hits a price level zone and reacts in the opposite direction.
These are price zones, sometimes you will see a reaction right at the price but visualize these areas as zones of reaction.
A high percentage of the time when price approaches these level zones there will be a reaction. So trade the reaction .
How do you do that?
Simple. Trade patterns that repeat. I have 3 solid patterns I trade around these key levels:
The first pattern is early entry with precise scale in rules and a very effective protective stop loss placement.
The second pattern is wait for confirmation that the level holds. This requires more patience and for you to fully trust the chart. The benefit of this pattern is with confirmation you have even more precise stop placement.
There is a bonus third pattern I trade around these levels. I call this the confirmation and bluff entry. It's a combination of both of the patterns above. You wait for confirmation but on any pull back you call the bluff on the market and enter on key test. Trade management here is critical. In addition to the pattern you trade you should have a series of failure patterns that tell you to get out of the trade, I use 2 primary failure patterns.
I trade all markets, same system, same rules, so I'll show a few examples.
Usually I start with Bitcoin but let's start with equities:
BA - Boeing - 8 Trades
Here we see weekly low patterns, previous week low test, vwAP hold patterns, day magnets and day holding. Then 2 week failures and a double hold pattern.
These are all straightforward trades to execute following really simple patterns.
BTCUSD Previous vWAP and Day Open Trades
We see here on the circle areas both daily open and previous day vWAP zone tests. Within this chart are all 3 highly effective patterns I trade.
SPY - 7 High Probability Trades
Here we see a pDay vWAP mixed with a daily failure. Next a daily retest, then a pDay vWAP failure, then a vWAP capture and test. Then a double weekly failure test (great trade there) and finally a daily test.
I could provide more examples but most are just derivatives of the above examples.
sentiment winner (juiida)Sentiment winner is an indicator made by trader for trader. This indicator made for high volume index and highly traded forex pair. Special thanks to tradingview for providing such a beautiful platform to build indicators.
Though this indicator looks like having candlesticks, well they are not, they are just some visualization. The logic behind sentiment winner involved complex mathematics. But the primary aim is to check where pump and dump happens on high volume index and forex pair. Things gets interesting when you count forex effect and the respective country's option market effect alongside.
When you click on settings, you will have get options to select.
1. For banknifty & nifty - I recommend to use default settings
2. To check Global effect - make IN Option Effect OFF & Forex Effect ON.
3. For SPX & QQQ - make IN Option Effect OFF & US Option Effect ON.
4. For forex pair like EURUSD, GBPUSD - make Forex Effect ON and Invert Effect OFF.
5. For forex pair like USDCAD, USDSEK - make Forex Effect ON and Invert Effect ON.
Well after choosing the right settings for you, you will see sentiment winner is similar to your chart. You can check and spot where things gets different. Your target chart, say nifty50 or eurusd can be pump and dumped but to move sentiment winner, market maker will need extra time and effort. So, it has the advantages.
So, as an option seller you would be more happy to sell options, as you can spot where pump and dump started, but as an option buyer we need to wait for proper entry. Some of those entry can be double top or double bottom, where low risk it involves low risk but high rewards. I'm sure with experience you will find more entries.
let me show some examples.
In forex pairs also, traders can trade on double top or double bottom, where low risk it involves low risk but high rewards. Also can check many imbalances with the help of sentiment winner and can trade accordingly.
let me show some examples.
So these are just a few examples. The use of this indicator is only limited by your imagination.
