Delta-RSI Oscillator StrategyDelta-RSI Oscillator Strategy: This strategy illustrates the use of the recently published Delta-RSI Oscillator as a stand-alone indicator. Delta-RSI represents a smoothed time derivative of the RSI, plotted as a histogram and serving as a momentum indicator. There are three optional conditions to generate trading signals (set separately for Buy, Sell and Exit signals): Zero-crossing : bullish when D-RSI crosses zero from negative to positive values (bearish otherwise) Signal Line Crossing : bullish when D-RSI crosses from below to above the signal line (bearish otherwise) Direction Change : bullish when D-RSI was negative and starts ascending (bearish otherwise) Since D-RSI oscillator is based on polynomial fitting of the RSI curve, there is also an option to filter trade signal by means of the root mean-square error of the fit (normalized by the sample average). My original D-RSI Oscillator script can be found here:

[blackcat] L2 Ehlers Smoothed Adaptive MomentumLevel: 2 Background John F. Ehlers introuced Smoothed Adaptive Momentum in his "Cybernetic Analysis for Stocks and Futures" chapter 12 on 2004. Function Smoothed Adaptive Momentum is to measure the Dominant Cycle period and then use that measured period to take a onecycle momentum. It really does matter if you measure the Dominant Cycle. The trend component is measured by taking the momentum across one full Dominant Cycle. Key Signal Mom ---> Smoothed Adaptive Momentum fast line Trigger ---> Smoothed Adaptive Momentum slow line Pros and Cons 100% John F. Ehlers definition translation of original work, even variable names are the same. This help readers who would like to use pine to read his book. If you had read his works, then you will be quite familiar with my code style. Remarks The 28th script for Blackcat1402 John F. Ehlers Week publication. Readme In real life, I am a prolific inventor. I have successfully applied for more than 60 international and regional patents in the past 12 years. But in the past two years or so, I have tried to transfer my creativity to the development of trading strategies. Tradingview is the ideal platform for me. I am selecting and contributing some of the hundreds of scripts to publish in Tradingview community. Welcome everyone to interact with me to discuss these interesting pine scripts. The scripts posted are categorized into 5 levels according to my efforts or manhours put into these works. Level 1 : interesting script snippets or distinctive improvement from classic indicators or strategy. Level 1 scripts can usually appear in more complex indicators as a function module or element. Level 2 : composite indicator/strategy. By selecting or combining several independent or dependent functions or sub indicators in proper way, the composite script exhibits a resonance phenomenon which can filter out noise or fake trading signal to enhance trading confidence level. Level 3 : comprehensive indicator/strategy. They are simple trading systems based on my strategies. They are commonly containing several or all of entry signal, close signal, stop loss, take profit, re-entry, risk management, and position sizing techniques. Even some interesting fundamental and mass psychological aspects are incorporated. Level 4 : script snippets or functions that do not disclose source code. Interesting element that can reveal market laws and work as raw material for indicators and strategies. If you find Level 1~2 scripts are helpful, Level 4 is a private version that took me far more efforts to develop. Level 5 : indicator/strategy that do not disclose source code. private version of Level 3 script with my accumulated script processing skills or a large number of custom functions. I had a private function library built in past two years. Level 5 scripts use many of them to achieve private trading strategy.

B3 Buyer-Seller BreakoutsB3 Buyer-Seller Breakouts = If a bar is showing that it is moving in a direction with highs lows and close, all of which are >respectively< moving against the open from the bar before, then it prints indicating buyers or sellers bringing momentum. The arrows and cloud carry into the next bar to give lots of awareness of the micro-term momentum. The cloud represents the better price range from which to add to a position. This study repaints within the bar, most of my indicators do not, but this one is about timing to get an edge on adding to your already in play position, becoming part of the needed momentum to hit profit targets faster. Also, this theory helps you add to winners, and if you never add to losers, you now have statistical odds in your favor. I got the idea for the study reading about turtle trader method and how that statistical edge is really why it works, always adding on every breakout. Keep in mind that I never buy or sell breakouts to initiate trades, only to scale in. ~Cheers!~ ~B3

Stefan Krecher: Jeddingen DivergenceThe main idea is to identify a divergence between momentum and price movement. E.g. if the momentum is rising but price is going down - this is what we call a divergence. The divergence will be calculated by comparing the direction of the linear regression curve of the price with the linear regression curve of momentum. A bearish divergence can be identified by a thick red line, a bullish divergence by a green line. When there is a divergence, it is likeley that the current trend will change it's direction. Looking at the chart, there are three divergences that need to get interpreted: 1) bearish divergence, RSI is overbought but MACD does not clearly indicate a trend change. Right after the divergence, price and momentum are going up. No clear signal for a sell trade 2) bearish divergence, RSI still overbought, MACD histogram peaked, MACD crossed the signal line, price and momentum are going down. Very clear constellation for a sell trade. 3) two bullish diverences, RSI is oversold, MACD crossover near the end of the second divergence, price and momentum started rising. Good constellation for a buy trade. Could act as exit signal for the beforementioned sell trade. More information on the Jeddingen Divergence is available here: www.forexpython.com

Neural Pulse System [Alpha Extract]Neural Pulse System (NPS) The Neural Pulse System (NPS) is a custom technical indicator that analyzes price action through a probabilistic lens, offering a dynamic view of bullish and bearish tendencies. Unlike traditional binary classification models, NPS employs Ordinary Least Squares (OLS) regression with dynamically computed coefficients to produce a smooth probability output ranging from -1 to 1. Paired with ATR-based bands, this indicator provides an intuitive and volatility-aware approach to trend analysis. 🔶 CALCULATION The Neural Pulse System utilizes OLS regression to compute probabilities of bullish or bearish price action while incorporating ATR-based bands for volatility context: Dynamic Coefficients: Coefficients are recalculated in real-time and scaled up to ensure the regression adapts to evolving market conditions. Ordinary Least Squares (OLS): Uses OLS regression instead of gradient descent for more precise and efficient coefficient estimation. ATR Bands: Smoothed Average True Range (ATR) bands serve as dynamic boundaries, framing the regression within market volatility. Probability Output: Instead of a binary result, the output is a continuous probability curve (-1 to 1), helping traders gauge the strength of bullish or bearish momentum. Formula: OLS Regression = Line of best fit minimizing squared errors Probability Signal = Transformed regression output scaled to -1 (bearish) to 1 (bullish) ATR Bands = Smoothed Average True Range (ATR) to frame price movements within market volatility 🔶 DETAILS 📊 Visual Features: Probability Curve: Smooth probability signal ranging from -1 (bearish) to 1 (bullish) ATR Bands: Price action is constrained within volatility bands, preventing extreme deviations Color-Coded Signals: Blue to Green: Increasing probability of bullish momentum Orange to Red: Increasing probability of bearish momentum Interpretation: Bullish Bias: Probability output consistently above 0 suggests a bullish trend. Bearish Bias: Probability output consistently below 0 indicates bearish pressure. Reversals: Extreme values near -1 or 1, followed by a move toward 0, may signal potential trend reversals. 🔶 EXAMPLES 📌 Trend Identification: Use the probability output to gauge trend direction. 📌Example: On a 1-hour chart, NPS moves from -0.5 to 0.8 as price breaks resistance, signaling a bullish trend. Reversal Signals: Watch for probability extremes near -1 or 1 followed by a reversal toward 0. Example: NPS hits 0.9, price touches the upper ATR band, then both retreat—indicating a potential pullback. 📌 Example snapshots: Volatility Context: ATR bands help assess whether price action aligns with typical market conditions. Example: During low volatility, the probability signal hovers near 0, and ATR bands tighten, suggesting a potential breakout. 🔶 SETTINGS Customization Options: ATR Period – Defines lookback length for ATR calculation (shorter = more responsive, longer = smoother). ATR Multiplier – Adjusts band width for better volatility capture. Regression Length – Controls how many bars feed into the coefficient calculation (longer = smoother, shorter = more reactive). Scaling Factor – Adjusts the strength of regression coefficients. Output Smoothing – Option to apply a moving average for a cleaner probability curve

Twiggs Money FlowTwiggs Money Flow (TMF) This indicator is an implementation of the Twiggs Money Flow (TMF), a volume-based tool designed to measure buying and selling pressure over a specified period. TMF is an enhancement of Chaikin Money Flow (CMF), utilizing more sophisticated smoothing techniques for improved accuracy and reduced noise. This version is highly customizable and includes advanced features for both new and experienced traders. What is Twiggs Money Flow? Twiggs Money Flow was developed by Colin Twiggs to provide a clearer picture of market momentum and the balance between buyers and sellers. It uses a combination of price action, trading volume, and range calculations to assess whether a market is under buying or selling pressure. Unlike traditional volume indicators, TMF incorporates Weighted Moving Averages (WMA) by default but allows for other moving average types (SMA, EMA, VWMA) for added flexibility. This makes it adaptable to various trading styles and market conditions. Features of This Script: Customizable Moving Average Types: Select from SMA , EMA , WMA , or VWMA to smooth volume and price-based calculations. Tailor the indicator to align with your trading strategy or the asset's behavior. Optional HMA Smoothing: Apply Hull Moving Average (HMA) smoothing for a cleaner, faster-reacting TMF line. Perfect for traders who want to reduce lag and capture trends earlier. Dynamic Thresholds for Signal Filtering: Set user-defined thresholds for Long (LT) and Short (ST) signals to highlight significant momentum. Focus on actionable trends by ignoring noise around neutral levels. Bar Coloring for Visual Clarity: Automatically colors your chart bars based on TMF values: Aqua for strong bullish signals (above the long threshold). Fuchsia for strong bearish signals (below the short threshold). Gray for neutral or undecided market conditions. Ensures that trend direction and strength are visually intuitive. Configurable Lookback Period: Adjust the sensitivity of TMF by customizing the length of the lookback period to suit different timeframes and market conditions. How It Works: True Range Calculation: The script determines the high, low, and close range to calculate buying and selling pressure. Adjusted Volume: Incorporates the relationship between price and volume to gauge whether trading activity is favoring buyers or sellers. Weighted Moving Averages (WMAs): Smooths both volume and adjusted volume values to eliminate erratic fluctuations. TMF Line: Computes the ratio of adjusted volume to total volume, representing the net buying/selling pressure as a percentage. HMA Option (if enabled): Smooths the TMF line further to reduce lag and enhance trend identification. Bar Coloring Logic: Bars are colored dynamically based on TMF values, thresholds, and smoothing preferences. Provides an at-a-glance understanding of market conditions. Input Parameters: Lookback Period: Defines the number of bars used to calculate TMF (default: 21). Use HMA Smoothing: Toggle Hull Moving Average smoothing (default: true). HMA Smoothing Length: Length of the HMA smoothing period (default: 14). Moving Average Type: Select SMA, EMA, WMA, or VWMA (default: WMA). Long Threshold (LT): Threshold value above which a long signal is considered (default: 0). Short Threshold (ST): Threshold value below which a short signal is considered (default: 0). How to Use It: Confirm Trends: TMF can validate trends by identifying periods of sustained buying or selling pressure. Divergence Signals: Watch for divergences between price and TMF to anticipate potential reversals. Filter Trades: Use the thresholds to ignore weak signals and focus on strong trends. Combine with Other Indicators: Pair TMF with trend-following or momentum indicators (e.g., RSI, Bollinger Bands) for a comprehensive trading strategy. Example Use Cases: Spotting breakouts when TMF crosses above the long threshold. Identifying sell-offs when TMF dips below the short threshold. Avoiding sideways markets by ignoring neutral (gray) bars. Notes: This indicator is highly customizable, making it versatile across different assets (e.g., stocks, crypto, forex). While the default settings are robust, tweaking the lookback period, moving average type, and thresholds is recommended for different trading instruments or strategies. Always backtest thoroughly before applying the indicator to live trading. This version of Twiggs Money Flow goes beyond standard implementations by offering advanced smoothing, custom thresholds, and enhanced visual feedback to give traders a competitive edge. Add it to your charts and experience the power of volume-driven analysis!

X-Force Selector中文說明 X-Force 篩選者 是基於 Mark Minervini 概念設計的強勢標的篩選指標，旨在幫助交易者捕捉市場中的極端強勢標的。此指標運用多重篩選條件，使交易者能在價格達到特定關鍵位置時精準進場，專注於上漲動能強勁、突破阻力較小的標的。 指標篩選條件 100% 關鍵價位：當價格位於365根K棒的最低點的100%之上時，顯示該標的處於強勢區域，具備顯著的上漲動能。 25% 高點價位：同時，當價格位於365根K棒的高點以下25%之上時，代表該標的上方阻力較小，是一個潛在的突破信號。 滿足以上兩個條件的標的才會被視為進場機會，這符合 Minervini 所強調的「專注於強勢標的」的策略。Minervini 的概念強調當標的價格突破關鍵價位時，可能帶來更高的回報潛力，且風險相對較小。 加密貨幣與時間周期的應用 在加密貨幣交易中，1小時到4小時的小時間框架適合使用100%、66%、33%這些百分比範圍參數，以反映市場的高波動特性。對於更短周期，建議進一步縮小百分比，以提高指標對短期波動的敏感度，並增強篩選結果的準確性。 靈活的篩選與戰警風格 此指標的設計結合了 Minervini 的概念和戰警風格，旨在精準鎖定極具潛力的突破標的。X-Force 篩選者適合追隨趨勢的交易者，尤其是熱衷於 Mark Minervini 策略的投資者，使交易者能夠專注於市場中最具上漲動能的標的，實現更精確的進場決策。 English Description X-Force Selector is a powerful trend-filtering indicator inspired by Mark Minervini’s trading concepts, designed to help traders capture assets with extreme strength in the market. By applying multiple filtering criteria, this indicator enables precise entry decisions when price reaches specific key levels, focusing on assets with strong upward momentum and minimal resistance. Indicator Selection Criteria 100% Key Price Level: When the price is above 100% of the lowest low over the past 365 bars, it indicates the asset is in a strong zone with substantial upward momentum. 25% High Price Level: Additionally, when the price is within 25% below the 365-bar high, it signals reduced resistance above, indicating potential for a breakout. Assets meeting both criteria are considered potential entry opportunities, aligning with Minervini's strategy of “focusing on strong assets.” Minervini’s concept emphasizes capturing high-potential assets as they break through critical levels, aiming for higher returns with relatively low risk. Application to Cryptocurrency and Timeframes In cryptocurrency trading, shorter timeframes such as 1H to 4H are well-suited for the 100%, 66%, and 33% thresholds, reflecting the high volatility of crypto markets. For even smaller timeframes, it is recommended to reduce these percentages to enhance the indicator’s sensitivity to short-term fluctuations, improving the accuracy of filtered results. Flexible Filtering with a Battle-Ready Style With a design inspired by Minervini's concepts and a battle-ready scanning approach, the X-Force Selector precisely locks onto high-potential breakout candidates. This indicator is ideal for trend-following traders, especially those applying Mark Minervini’s strategies, enabling them to concentrate on assets with the strongest upward momentum for precise entry decisions.

Uptrick: Trend SMA Oscillator### In-Depth Analysis of the "Uptrick: Trend SMA Oscillator" Indicator --- #### Introduction to the Indicator The "Uptrick: Trend SMA Oscillator" is an advanced yet user-friendly technical analysis tool designed to help traders across all levels of experience identify and follow market trends with precision. This indicator builds upon the fundamental principles of the Simple Moving Average (SMA), a cornerstone of technical analysis, to deliver a clear, visually intuitive overlay on the price chart. Through its strategic use of color-coding and customizable parameters, the Uptrick: Trend SMA Oscillator provides traders with actionable insights into market dynamics, enhancing their ability to make informed trading decisions. #### Core Concepts and Methodology 1. **Foundational Principle – Simple Moving Average (SMA):** - The Simple Moving Average (SMA) is the heart of the Uptrick: Trend SMA Oscillator. The SMA is a widely-used technical indicator that calculates the average price of an asset over a specified number of periods. By smoothing out price data, the SMA helps to reduce the noise from short-term fluctuations, providing a clearer picture of the overall trend. - In the Uptrick: Trend SMA Oscillator, two SMAs are employed: - **Primary SMA (oscValue):** This is applied to the closing price of the asset over a user-defined period (default is 14 periods). This SMA tracks the price closely and is sensitive to changes in market direction. - **Smoothing SMA (oscV):** This second SMA is applied to the primary SMA, further smoothing the data and helping to filter out minor price movements that might otherwise be mistaken for trend reversals. The default period for this smoothing is 50, but it can be adjusted to suit the trader's preference. 2. **Color-Coding for Trend Visualization:** - One of the most distinctive features of this indicator is its use of color to represent market trends. The indicator’s line changes color based on the relationship between the primary SMA and the smoothing SMA: - **Bullish (Green):** The line turns green when the primary SMA is equal to or greater than the smoothing SMA, indicating that the market is in an upward trend. - **Bearish (Red):** Conversely, the line turns red when the primary SMA falls below the smoothing SMA, signaling a downward trend. - This color-coded system provides traders with an immediate, easy-to-interpret visual cue about the market’s direction, allowing for quick decision-making. #### Detailed Explanation of Inputs 1. **Bullish Color (Default: Green #00ff00):** - This input allows traders to customize the color that represents bullish trends on the chart. The default setting is green, a color commonly associated with upward market movement. However, traders can adjust this to any color that suits their visual preferences or matches their overall chart theme. 2. **Bearish Color (Default: Red RGB: 245, 0, 0):** - The bearish color input determines the color of the line when the market is trending downwards. The default setting is a vivid red, signaling caution or selling opportunities. Like the bullish color, this can be customized to fit the trader’s needs. 3. **Line Thickness (Default: 5):** - This setting controls the thickness of the line plotted by the indicator. The default thickness of 5 makes the line prominent on the chart, ensuring that the trend is easily visible even in complex or crowded chart setups. Traders can adjust the thickness to make the line thinner or thicker, depending on their visual preferences. 4. **Primary SMA Period (Value 1 - Default: 14):** - The primary SMA period defines how many periods (e.g., days, hours) are used to calculate the moving average based on the asset’s closing prices. The default period of 14 is a balanced setting that offers a good mix of responsiveness and stability, but traders can adjust this depending on their trading style: - **Shorter Periods (e.g., 5-10):** These make the indicator more sensitive, capturing trends more quickly but also increasing the likelihood of reacting to short-term price fluctuations or "noise." - **Longer Periods (e.g., 20-50):** These smooth the data more, providing a more stable trend line that is less prone to whipsaws but may be slower to respond to trend changes. 5. **Smoothing SMA Period (Value 2 - Default: 50):** - The smoothing SMA period determines how much the primary SMA is smoothed. A longer smoothing period results in a more gradual, stable line that focuses on the broader trend. The default of 50 is designed to smooth out most of the short-term fluctuations while still being responsive enough to detect significant trend shifts. - **Customization:** - **Shorter Smoothing Periods (e.g., 20-30):** Make the indicator more responsive, better for fast-moving markets or for traders who want to capture quick trends. - **Longer Smoothing Periods (e.g., 70-100):** Enhance stability, ideal for long-term traders looking to avoid reacting to minor price movements. #### Unique Characteristics and Advantages 1. **Simplicity and Clarity:** - The Uptrick: Trend SMA Oscillator’s design prioritizes simplicity without sacrificing effectiveness. By relying on the widely understood SMA, it avoids the complexity of more esoteric indicators while still providing reliable trend signals. This simplicity makes it accessible to traders of all levels, from novices who are just learning about technical analysis to experienced traders looking for a straightforward, dependable tool. 2. **Visual Feedback Mechanism:** - The indicator’s use of color to signify market trends is a particularly powerful feature. This visual feedback mechanism allows traders to assess market conditions at a glance. The clarity of the green and red color scheme reduces the mental effort required to interpret the indicator, freeing the trader to focus on strategy execution. 3. **Adaptability Across Markets and Timeframes:** - One of the strengths of the Uptrick: Trend SMA Oscillator is its versatility. The basic principles of moving averages apply equally well across different asset classes and timeframes. Whether trading stocks, forex, commodities, or cryptocurrencies, traders can use this indicator to gain insights into market trends. - **Intraday Trading:** For day traders who operate on short timeframes (e.g., 1-minute, 5-minute charts), the oscillator can be adjusted to be more responsive, capturing quick shifts in momentum. - **Swing Trading:** Swing traders, who typically hold positions for several days to weeks, will find the default settings or slightly adjusted periods ideal for identifying and riding medium-term trends. - **Long-Term Trading:** Position traders and investors can adjust the indicator to focus on long-term trends by increasing the periods for both the primary and smoothing SMAs, filtering out minor fluctuations and highlighting sustained market movements. 4. **Minimal Lag:** - One of the challenges with moving averages is lag—the delay between when the price changes and when the indicator reflects this change. The Uptrick: Trend SMA Oscillator addresses this by allowing traders to adjust the periods to find a balance between responsiveness and stability. While all SMAs inherently have some lag, the customizable nature of this indicator helps traders mitigate this effect to align with their specific trading goals. 5. **Customizable and Intuitive:** - While many technical indicators come with a fixed set of parameters, the Uptrick: Trend SMA Oscillator is fully customizable, allowing traders to tailor it to their trading style, market conditions, and personal preferences. This makes it a highly flexible tool that can be adjusted as markets evolve or as a trader’s strategy changes over time. #### Practical Applications for Different Trader Profiles 1. **Day Traders:** - **Use Case:** Day traders can customize the SMA periods to create a faster, more responsive indicator. This allows them to capture short-term trends and make quick decisions. For example, reducing the primary SMA to 5 and the smoothing SMA to 20 can help day traders react promptly to intraday price movements. - **Strategy Integration:** Day traders might use the Uptrick: Trend SMA Oscillator in conjunction with volume-based indicators to confirm the strength of a trend before entering or exiting trades. 2. **Swing Traders:** - **Use Case:** Swing traders can use the default settings or slightly adjust them to smooth out minor price fluctuations while still capturing medium-term trends. This approach helps in identifying the optimal points to enter or exit trades based on the broader market direction. - **Strategy Integration:** Swing traders can combine this indicator with oscillators like the Relative Strength Index (RSI) to confirm overbought or oversold conditions, thereby refining their entry and exit strategies. 3. **Position Traders:** - **Use Case:** Position traders, who hold trades for extended periods, can extend the SMA periods to focus on long-term trends. By doing so, they minimize the impact of short-term market noise and focus on the underlying trend. - **Strategy Integration:** Position traders might use the Uptrick: Trend SMA Oscillator in combination with fundamental analysis. The indicator can help confirm the timing of entries and exits based on broader economic or corporate developments. 4. **Algorithmic and Quantitative Traders:** - **Use Case:** The simplicity and clear logic of the Uptrick: Trend SMA Oscillator make it an excellent candidate for algorithmic trading strategies. Its binary output—bullish or bearish—can be easily coded into automated trading systems. - **Strategy Integration:** Quant traders might use the indicator as part of a larger trading system that incorporates multiple indicators and rules, optimizing the SMA periods based on historical backtesting to achieve the best results. 5. **Novice Traders:** - **Use Case:** Beginners can use the Uptrick: Trend SMA Oscillator to learn the basics of trend-following strategies. The visual simplicity of the color-coded line helps novice traders quickly understand market direction without the need to interpret complex data. - **Educational Value:** The indicator serves as an excellent starting point for those new to technical analysis, providing a practical example of how moving averages work in a real-world trading environment. #### Combining the Indicator with Other Tools 1. **Relative Strength Index (RSI):** - The RSI is a momentum oscillator that measures the speed and change of price movements. When combined with the Uptrick: Trend SMA Oscillator, traders can look for instances where the RSI shows divergence from the price while the oscillator confirms the trend. This can be a powerful signal of an impending reversal or continuation. 2. **Moving Average Convergence Divergence (MACD):** - The MACD is another popular trend-following momentum indicator. By using it alongside the Uptrick: Trend SMA Oscillator, traders can confirm the strength of a trend and identify potential entry and exit points with greater confidence. For example, a bullish crossover on the MACD that coincides with the Uptrick: Trend SMA Oscillator turning green can be a strong buy signal. 3. **Volume Indicators:** - Volume is often considered the fuel behind price movements. Using volume indicators like the On-Balance Volume (OBV) or Volume Weighted Average Price (VWAP) in conjunction with the Uptrick: Trend SMA Oscillator can help traders confirm the validity of a trend. A trend identified by the oscillator that is supported by increasing volume is typically more reliable. 4. **Fibonacci Retracement:** - Fibonacci retracement levels are used to identify potential reversal levels in a trending market. When the Uptrick: Trend SMA Oscillator indicates a trend, traders can use Fibonacci retracement levels to find potential entry points that align with the broader trend direction. #### Implementation in Different Market Conditions 1. **Trending Markets:** - The Uptrick: Trend SMA Oscillator excels in trending markets, where it provides clear signals on the direction of the trend. In a strong uptrend, the line will remain green, helping traders stay in the trade for longer periods. In a downtrend, the red line will signal the continuation of bearish conditions, prompting traders to stay short or avoid long positions. 2. **Sideways or Range-Bound Markets:** - In range-bound markets, where price oscillates within a confined range without a clear trend, the Uptrick: Trend SMA Oscillator may produce more frequent changes in color. While this could indicate potential reversals at the range boundaries, traders should be cautious of false signals. It may be beneficial to pair the oscillator with a volatility indicator to better navigate such conditions. 3. **Volatile Markets:** - In highly volatile markets, where prices can swing rapidly, the sensitivity of the Uptrick: Trend SMA Oscillator can be adjusted by modifying the SMA periods. A shorter SMA period might capture quick trends, but traders should be aware of the increased risk of whipsaws. Combining the oscillator with a volatility filter or using it in a higher time frame might help mitigate some of this risk. #### Final Thoughts The "Uptrick: Trend SMA Oscillator" is a versatile, easy-to-use indicator that stands out for its simplicity, visual clarity, and adaptability.

US Market Strength Momentum [LG]This indicator is designed to analyze the relative strength momentum of two US market indices, the Russell 2000 and S&P 500, by calculating their rate of change over a 21-bar period and comparing them. The difference between the average rate of change for IWM and SPY is then plotted as a histogram, with green bars indicating positive momentum and red bars indicating negative momentum. The indicator also includes a moving average line, calculated over a 200-bar period, which is plotted on top of the histogram. This moving average helps to smooth out the data and provide a clearer picture of the longer-term trend. In this indicator, the strength of the Russell 2000 compared to S&P 500 is seen as a gauge of market participants' risk tolerance. When Russell outperforms the S&P, market participants are assumed to be taking on greater risk in search of greater beta. When the S&P outperforms Russell, the assumption is that market participants are fleeing to safer assets (in regards to equities indices). The time frame the indicator is viewed on as well as the size of the rate of change delta dictates the strength of the trend.
