FVG Heatmap [Hash Capital Research]FVG Map
FVG Map is a visual Fair Value Gap (FVG) mapping tool built to make displacement imbalances easy to see and manage in real time. It detects 3-candle FVG zones, plots them as clean heatmap boxes, tracks partial mitigation (how much of the zone has been filled), and summarizes recent “fill speed” behavior in a small regime dashboard.
This is an indicator (not a strategy). It does not place trades and it does not publish performance claims. It is a market-structure visualization tool intended to support discretionary or systematic workflows.
What this script detects
Bullish FVG (gap below price)
A bullish FVG is detected when the candle from two bars ago has a high below the current candle’s low.
The zone spans from that prior high up to the current low.
Bearish FVG (gap above price)
A bearish FVG is detected when the candle from two bars ago has a low above the current candle’s high.
The zone spans from the current high up to that prior low.
What makes it useful
Heatmap zones (clean, readable FVG boxes)
Bullish zones plot below price. Bearish zones plot above price.
Partial fill tracking (mitigation progress)
As price trades back into a zone, the script visually shows how much of the zone has been filled.
Mitigation modes (your definition of “filled”)
• Full Fill: price fully trades through the zone
• 50% Fill: price reaches the midpoint of the zone
• First Touch: price touches the zone one time
Optional auto-cleanup
Optionally remove zones once they’re mitigated to keep the chart clean.
Fill-Speed Regime Dashboard
When zones get mitigated, the script records how many bars it took to fill and summarizes the recent environment:
• Average fill time
• Median fill time
• % fast fills vs % slow fills
• Regime label: choppy/mean-revert, trending/displacement, or mixed
How to use
Use FVG zones as structure, not guaranteed signals.
• Bullish zones are often watched as potential support on pullbacks.
• Bearish zones are often watched as potential resistance on rallies.
The fill-speed dashboard helps provide context: fast fills tend to appear in more rotational conditions, while slow fills tend to appear in stronger trend/displacement conditions.
Alerts

Notes
FVGs are not guaranteed reversal points. Fill-speed/regime is descriptive of recent behavior and should be treated as context, not prediction. On realtime candles, visuals may update as the bar forms.

Market Extreme Zones IndexThe Market Extreme Zones Index is a new mean reversion (valuation) tool focused on catching long term oversold/overbought zones. Combining an enhanced RSI with a smoothed Z-score this indicator allows traders to find oppurtunities during highly oversold/overbought zones.
I will separate the explanation into the following parts:
1. How does it work?
2. Methodologies & Concepts
3. Use cases
How does it work?
The indicator attempts to catch highly unprobable events in either direction to capture reversal points over the long term. This is done by calculating the Z-Score of an enhanced RSI.
First we need to calculate the Enhanced RSI:
For this we need to calculate 2 additional lengths:
Length1 = user defined length
Length2 = Length1/2
Length3 = √Length
Now we need to calculate 3 different RSIs:
1st RSI => uses classic user defined source and classic user defined length.
2nd RSI => uses classic user defined source and Length 2.
3rd RSI => uses RSI 2 as source and Length 2
Now calculate the divergence:
RSI_base => 2nd RSI * 3 - 1st RSI - 3rd RSI
After this we need to calculate the median of the RSI_base over √Length and make a divergence of these 2:
RSI => RSI_base*2 - median
All that remains now is the Z-score calculations:
We need:
Average RSI value
Standard Deviation = a measure of how dispersed or spread out a set of data values are from their average
Z-score = (Current Value - Average Value) / Standard Deviation
After this we just smooth the Z-score with a Weighted Moving average with √Length
Methodology & Concepts
Mean Reversion Methodology:
The methodology behind mean reversion is the theory that asset prices will eventually return to their long-term average after deviating significantly, driven by the belief that extreme moves are temporary.
Z-Score Methodology:
A Z-score, or standard score, is a statistical measure that indicates how many standard deviations a data point is from the mean of a dataset. A positive z-score means the value is above the mean, a negative score means it's below, and a score of zero means the value is equal to the mean.
You might already be able to see where I am going with this:
Z-Score could be used for the extreme moves to capture reversal points.
By applying it to the RSI rather than the Price, we get a more accurate measurement that allow us to get a banger indicator.
Use Cases
Capturing reversal points
Trend Direction
- while the main use it for mean reversion, the values can indicate whether we are in an uptrend or a downtrend.
Advantages:
Visualization:
The indicator has many plots to ensure users can easily see what the indicator signals, such as highlighting extreme conditions with background colors.
Versatility:
This indicator works across multiple assets, including the S&P500 and more, so it is not only for crypto.
Final note:
No indicator alone is perfect.
Backtests are not indicative of future performance.
Hope you enjoy Gs!
Good luck!
Wick Pressure Zones [BigBeluga]
The Wick Pressure Zones indicator highlights areas where extreme wick activity occurred, signaling strong buy or sell pressure. By measuring unusually long upper or lower wicks and mapping them into gradient volume zones , the tool helps traders identify levels where liquidity was absorbed, leaving behind footprints of supply and demand imbalances. These zones often act as support, resistance, or liquidity sweep magnets .
🔵 CONCEPTS
Extreme Wicks : Large upper or lower shadows indicate aggressive rejection — upper wicks suggest selling pressure, lower wicks suggest buying pressure.
Volumatic Gradient Zones : From each detected wick, the indicator projects a layered gradient zone, proportional to the wick’s size, showing where most pressure occurred.
Liquidity Footprints : These zones mark levels where significant buy/sell volume was executed, often becoming reaction points on future retests.
Automatic Expiration : Zones persist until price decisively trades through them, after which they are cleared to keep the chart clean.
🔵 FEATURES
Automatic Wick Detection : Identifies extreme upper and lower wick events using percentile filtering and Realative Strength Index.
Gradient Zone Visualization : Builds a 10-layer zone from the wick top/bottom, shading intensity according to pressure strength.
Volume Labels : Each zone is annotated with the bar’s volume at the origin point for added context.
Dynamic Zone Extension : Zones extend to the right as long as they remain relevant; once price closes through them, they are removed.
Support & Resistance Mapping : Upper wick zones (red) behave like supply/resistance, lower wick zones (green) like demand/support.
Clutter Control : Limits the number of active zones (default 10) to keep charts responsive.
Background Highlighting : Optional background shading when new wick zones appear (red for sell, green for buy).
🔵 HOW TO USE
Look for Upper Wick Zones (red) : Indicate strong selling pressure; watch for resistance, reversals, or liquidity sweeps above.
Look for Lower Wick Zones (green) : Indicate strong buying pressure; watch for support or liquidity sweeps below.
Trade Retests : When price returns to a zone, expect a reaction (bounce or rejection) due to leftover liquidity.
Combine with Context : Align wick pressure zones with HTF support/resistance, order blocks, or volume profile for stronger signals.
Use Volume Labels : High-volume wicks indicate more significant liquidity events, making the zone more likely to act as a strong reaction point.
🔵 CONCLUSION
The Wick Pressure Zones is a powerful way to visualize hidden liquidity and aggressive rejections. By mapping extreme wick events into dynamic, volume-annotated zones, it shows traders where the market absorbed heavy buy/sell pressure. These levels frequently act as magnets or turning points, making them valuable for timing entries, stop placement, or fade strategies.

IU Pivot Zones + GMADESCRIPTION:
IU Pivot Zones + GMA is a smart price-action-based indicator that detects meaningful support and resistance zones formed through pivot highs/lows while combining them with dynamic zone generation and Geometric Moving Averages (GMA). This tool is built to help traders visualize institutional breakout/rejection zones with clear, logical mapping and live box management — helping you stay ahead of the move.
The indicator is designed for intraday, swing, and positional traders who want to enhance their trading decisions with visual confluence zones and market structure logic.
USER INPUTS
* Pivot point Lengths: Number of bars used to detect pivot highs/lows
* Zone length: Controls the thickness of the support/resistance zone; higher values create wider zones
* GMA Length: Period for calculating the geometric moving averages based on highs and lows
* Allow Bar/candle Color: Enables or disables special candle coloring when price interacts with the zones
LOGIC OF THE INDICATOR:
* Detects pivot highs and pivot lows using the user-defined length
* Compares consecutive pivot levels to determine if they fall within a valid ATR-based price band to form a zone
* If confirmed, the indicator dynamically plots a resistance or support box between those pivot points, colored respectively (red for resistance, green for support)
* The boxes update in real-time based on price action. If price respects the zone, the box extends forward. If price breaks the zone, the box disappears
* Geometric Moving Averages (GMA) based on logarithmic mean of highs and lows are plotted to offer a trend bias
* Candles that touch the top of the support zone are colored yellow, and those touching the bottom of the resistance zone are orange, enhancing zone reaction visibility
WHY IT IS UNIQUE:
* Uses logarithmic-based GMAs, which are smoother and less reactive than traditional moving averages
* ATR-based zone logic makes it adaptive to volatility instead of using fixed-width zones
* Combines structural levels (pivots), volatility filters (ATR), and trend overlays (GMA) in one unified tool
* Real-time zone extension and disappearance logic based on price interaction
HOW USER CAN BENEFIT FROM IT:
* Spot high-probability breakout or reversal zones that price respects consistently
* Use the GMA cloud for trend confirmation — for example, bullish bias when price is above both GMAs
* Build price action strategies around zone touches, breakouts, or rejections
* Use color-coded candles as real-time alerts for potential entry/exit signals near S/R levels
* Save time by avoiding manual marking of zones on charts across timeframes

Custom EMA Zone1. Overview
The Custom EMA Cloud Indicator is a technical analysis tool designed to visually display a dynamic zone (or cloud) between two user-defined EMAs. It supports different EMA lengths and allows users to calculate these EMAs using custom timeframes. This flexibility makes it a powerful tool for identifying trends, key price zones, and potential trade signals.
2. Components of the Indicator
2.1. Exponential Moving Averages (EMAs)
EMA 1 (Faster EMA): Calculated using a shorter period (e.g., 21).
EMA 2 (Slower EMA): Calculated using a longer period (e.g., 50).
Users can customize the periods for both EMAs.
2.2. Timeframe Customization
Each EMA can be calculated using a higher timeframe than the chart’s timeframe (e.g., calculate EMA 50 on a 1-hour chart while viewing on a 5-minute chart).
This feature allows users to incorporate higher timeframe trend context into lower timeframe charts.
2.3. Cloud Zone
The cloud is the shaded area between EMA 1 and EMA 2.
Color Logic:
Light Green: Price opens and closes above both EMAs (bullish momentum).
Light Red: Price opens and closes below both EMAs (bearish momentum).
3. How to Use the Indicator
3.1. Trend Identification
When the entire price action is above the cloud, it signals a probable uptrend.
When the entire price action is below the cloud, it indicates a probable downtrend.
When the price is inside the cloud, it reflects probable market consolidation or indecision.
4. Use Cases in Trading Styles
4.1. Scalping
Use short EMAs (e.g., EMA 5 and EMA 13) on 1-minute or 3-minute charts.
Ideal for quick entries and exits during strong momentum moves.
4.2. Swing Trading
Use longer EMAs (e.g., EMA 21 and EMA 50) on 4-hour or daily charts.
Helps capture trend continuation over multiple days.
4.3. Trend Following
Combine with RSI or MACD to confirm trend strength before entering trades.
Stay in the trade as long as price respects the cloud direction.
5. Advantages
Visual Clarity: Simplifies decision-making with clearly defined zones.
Multi-Timeframe Insight: Offers a higher timeframe trend reference.
Customizable: Fits various strategies through adjustable EMAs and timeframes.
6. Limitations
Lagging Nature: As with all moving averages, there may be lag during fast reversals.
False Signals in Sideways Markets: May produce whipsaws during consolidation
ADX with Shaded ZoneThe ADX with Shaded Zone indicator is a momentum-based tool that visualizes trend strength using the Average Directional Index (ADX) along with the +DI and -DI lines. This indicator enhances the traditional ADX setup by adding a shaded zone between ADX levels 20 and 25, helping traders easily identify the transition area between non-trending and trending market conditions.
It plots:
+DI (Green): Positive Directional Indicator
−DI (Red): Negative Directional Indicator
ADX (Blue): Measures the strength of the trend
Shaded Zone: Highlights the indecisive range where ADX is below 25 (gray background between levels 20 and 25)
⚙️ How to Use:
✅ Trend Identification:
ADX < 20: Weak or no trend. Avoid trend-following strategies.
ADX 20–25 (Shaded Zone): Transition zone. Potential trend forming — stay cautious.
ADX > 25: Stronger trend. Favor trend-following strategies.
✅ Direction Confirmation:
If +DI > -DI and ADX > 25 → Uptrend confirmation.
If -DI > +DI and ADX > 25 → Downtrend confirmation.
Crossovers between +DI and -DI can be used as early signals.
✅ Shaded Zone Use:
The gray shaded area helps visually filter out low-trend strength conditions.
Useful for trend traders to wait before entering until ADX breaks above 25.
ATR Levels and Zones with Signals📌 ATR Levels and Zones with Signals – User Guide Description
🔹 Overview
The ATR Levels and Zones with Signals indicator is a volatility-based trading tool that helps traders identify:
✔ Key support & resistance levels based on ATR (Average True Range)
✔ Buy & Sell signals triggered when price enters key ATR zones
✔ Breakout confirmations to detect high-momentum moves
✔ Dynamic Stop-Loss & Take-Profit suggestions
Unlike traditional ATR bands, this indicator creates layered ATR zones based on multiple ATR multipliers, allowing traders to gauge volatility and risk-adjust their trading strategies.
🔹 How It Works
🔸 The script calculates a baseline SMA (Simple Moving Average) of the price.
🔸 ATR (Average True Range) is then used to create six dynamic price levels above & below the baseline.
🔸 These levels define different risk zones—higher levels indicate increased volatility and potential trend exhaustion.
📈 ATR Zones Explained
🔹 Lower ATR Levels (Buying Opportunities)
📉 Lower Level 1-2 → Mild Oversold Zone (Potential trend continuation)
📉 Lower Level 3-4 → High Volatility Buy Zone (Aggressive traders start scaling in)
📉 Lower Level 5-6 → Extreme Oversold Zone (High-Risk Reversal Area)
🔹 If price enters these lower zones, it may indicate a potential buying opportunity, especially if combined with trend reversal confirmation.
🔹 Upper ATR Levels (Selling / Take Profit Zones)
📈 Upper Level 1-2 → Mild Overbought Zone (Potential pullback area)

Ultimate ZonesThe story is simple: I didn't find a support/resistance zones indicator that I actually liked, so I made my own.
Features:
Independent of the chart timeframe (zones don't change if you switch timeframes) - very important for practical use
Live mode (repainting) plus historic mode (non-repainting)
Selectable timeframe for zone calculation (default: daily)
Can adjust how far the indicator looks back into the past (default: 500 days)
Can adjust pivot period to find more or fewer zones
Zone heights are based on long-term ATR (to adapt to the asset's volatility automatically)
Price tolerance multiplier is adjustable
Option to merge zones which are close together into one ("fat zones")
I find that together these options (especially those in the "sensitivity" section) allow me to automatically generate almost all the zones I want to see. Occasionally, I do draw some additional zones to get the perfect image I'm looking for on the chart.
Explanation
We detect pivot points on the selected zone timeframe (taking pivot period and lookback limit into account). Then we combine these pivot points into a zone if they are close enough together in price (here the tolerance parameter comes into play). If "fat zones" is selected, we perform these merges more aggressively even if the resulting zone becomes taller than the standard tolerance.
The ATR used for the tolerance is a 500 period ATR, but if there are less than 500 bars available, we use the average of the bars available so far, so we always have a value to work with.
In order for a zone to be displayed, it must have been touched by at least 2 separate pivot points. We do not distinguish between pivot highs and pivot lows because support is known to turn into resistance and vice versa.
In live mode, we draw the currently active zones as boxes.
In historic mode, we plot the active zones at each bar using "plot" and "fill", so there is no repainting or erasing, and you can see which zones were active at any past date. For practical reasons, we draw a maximum of 15 zones around the current price (i.e. 7-8 zones above and 7-8 zones below the price).
Zigzag Fibonacci Golden Zone [UAlgo]🔶 Description:
The "Zigzag Fibonacci Golden Zone" aims to identify potential trend pullback points by utilizing a combination of zigzag patterns and Fibonacci "Golden Zone (0.618 - 0.786)" retracement levels. It plots zigzag lines on the price chart, highlighting significant swing highs and swing lows, and overlays Fibonacci retracement levels to indicate potential support and resistance zones. Additionally, it provides options to display buy and sell signals based on specific criteria.
🔶 Key Features:
Zigzag Lines: The indicator plots zigzag lines on the price chart, marking significant swing highs and swing lows. These lines help traders visualize the direction and magnitude of price swings.
Fibonacci Retracement Levels: The indicator overlays Fibonacci retracement levels on the chart, indicating potential support and resistance levels. These levels are derived from the Fibonacci sequence and are commonly used by traders to identify reversal points.
Fibonacci occurs again when a new zigzag low or high is created :
Before new zigzag low pivot appears,
After new Zigzag low pivot appears,
As you see new fibonacci created after new pivot found also price bounced from retracement zone.
Customization Options: Traders can customize various parameters of the indicator, such as the length of the zigzag pattern, color preferences for different elements, and visibility of price labels and buy/sell signals.
Buy/Sell Signals: The indicator generates buy and sell signals based on predefined criteria, such as price movements relative to Fibonacci levels and other market conditions. These signals can help traders identify potential entry and exit points in the market.

Z-Score Based Momentum Zones with Advanced Volatility ChannelsThe indicator "Z-Score Based Momentum Zones with Advanced Volatility Channels" combines various technical analysis components, including volatility, price changes, and volume correction, to calculate Z-Scores and determine momentum zones and provide a visual representation of price movements and volatility based on multi timeframe highest high and lowest low values.
Note: THIS IS A IMPROVEMNT OF "Multi Time Frame Composite Bands" INDICATOR OF MINE WITH MORE EMPHASIS ON MOMENTUM ZONES CALULATED BASED ON Z-SCORES
Input Options
look_back_length: This input specifies the look-back period for calculating intraday volatility. correction It is set to a default value of 5.
lookback_period: This input sets the look-back period for calculating relative price change. The default value is 5.
zscore_period: This input determines the look-back period for calculating the Z-Score. The default value is 500.
avgZscore_length: This input defines the length of the momentum block used in calculations, with a default value of 14.
include_vc: This is a boolean input that, if set to true, enables volume correction in the calculations. By default, it is set to false.
1. Volatility Bands (Composite High and Low):
Composite High and Low: These are calculated by combining different moving averages of the high prices (high) and low prices (low). Specifically:
a_high and a_low are calculated as the average of the highest (ta.highest) and lowest (ta.lowest) high and low prices over various look-back periods (5, 8, 13, 21, 34) to capture short and long-term trends.
b_high and b_low are calculated as the simple moving average (SMA) of the high and low prices over different look-back periods (5, 8, 13) to smooth out the trends.
high_c and low_c are obtained by averaging a_high with b_high and a_low with b_low respectively.
IDV Correction Calulation : In this script the Intraday Volatility (IDV) is calculated as the simple moving average (SMA) of the daily high-low price range divided by the closing price. This measures how much the price fluctuates in a given period.
Composite High and Low with Volatility: The final c_high and c_low values are obtained by adjusting high_c and low_c with the calculated intraday volatility (IDV). These values are used to create the "Composite High" and "Composite Low" plots.
Composite High and Low with Volatility Correction: The final c_high and c_low values are obtained by adjusting high_c and low_c with the calculated intraday volatility (IDV). These values are used to create the "Composite High" and "Composite Low" plots.
2. Momentum Blocks Based on Z-Score:
Relative Price Change (RPC):
The Relative Price Change (rpdev) is calculated as the difference between the current high-low-close average (hlc3) and the previous simple moving average (psma_hlc3) of the same quantity. This measures the change in price over time.
Additionally, std_hlc3 is calculated as the standard deviation of the hlc3 values over a specified look-back period. The standard deviation quantifies the dispersion or volatility in the price data.
The rpdev is then divided by the std_hlc3 to normalize the price change by the volatility. This normalization ensures that the price change is expressed in terms of standard deviations, which is a common practice in quantitative analysis.
Essentially, the rpdev represents how many standard deviations the current price is away from the previous moving average.
Volume Correction (VC): If the include_vc input is set to true, volume correction is applied by dividing the trading volume by the previous simple moving average of the volume (psma_volume). This accounts for changes in trading activity.
Volume Corrected Relative Price Change (VCRPD): The vcrpd is calculated by multiplying the rpdev by the volume correction factor (vc). This incorporates both price changes and volume data.
Z-Scores: The Z-scores are calculated by taking the difference between the vcrpd and the mean (mean_vcrpd) and then dividing it by the standard deviation (stddev_vcrpd). Z-scores measure how many standard deviations a value is away from the mean. They help identify whether a value is unusually high or low compared to its historical distribution.
Momentum Blocks: The "Momentum Blocks" are essentially derived from the Z-scores (avgZScore). The script assigns different colors to the "Fill Area" based on predefined Z-score ranges. These colored areas represent different momentum zones:
Positive Z-scores indicate bullish momentum, and different shades of green are used to fill the area.
Negative Z-scores indicate bearish momentum, and different shades of red are used.
Z-scores near zero (between -0.25 and 0.25) suggest neutrality, and a yellow color is used.
Fibonacci Zone Oscillator With MACD HistogramThe columns
After I found a way to calculate a price as a percent of the middle line of the KeltCOG Channel in the KCGmut indicator (published), I got the idea to use the same trick in the Fbonacci Zone Channel (also published), thus creating an oscillator.
I plot the percent’s as columns with the color of the KeltCOG Channel. Because the channels I created and published (i.e. Fibonacci Zone, Donchian Fibonacci Trading Tool, Keltner Fibzones, and KeltCOG) all use Fibonacci zones, this indicator also reports the position of the close in their zones.
Strategy and Use:
Blue column: Close in uptrend area, 4 supports, 0 resistance, ready to rally up.
Green column: Close in buyers area, 3 supports, 1 resistance, looking up.
Gray column: Close in center area 2 supports, 2 resistances, undecided.
Yellow column: Close in sellers area 1 support, 3 resistances, looking down.
Red column: Close in downtrend area, 0 support, 4 resistances, ready to rally down.
I use this indicator in a layout with three timeframes which I use for stock picking, I pick all stocks with a blue column in every timeframe, the indicator is so clear that I can flip through the 50 charts of my universe of high liquid European blue chips in 15 minutes to make a list of these stocks.
Because I use it in conjunction with KeltCOG I also gave it a ‘script sets lookback’ option which can be checked with a feedback label and switched off in the inputs.
The MACD histogram
I admire the MACD because it is spot on when predicting tops and bottoms. It is also the most sexy indictor in TA. Actually just the histogram is needed, so I don’t show the macd-line and the signal line. I use the same lookback for the slow-ma as for the columns, set the fast-ma to half and the signal-line to a third of the general lookback. Therefore I gave the lookback a minimum value of 6, so the signal gets at least a lookback of 2.
The histogram is plotted three times, first as a whitish area to provide a background, then the colums of the Fibzone Oscillator are plotted, then the histogram as a purple line, which contrasts nicely and then as a hardly visible brown histogram.
The input settings give the option to show columns and histogram separate or together.
Strategy and use:
I think about the columns as showing a ‘longer term chosen momentum’ and about the histogram as a ‘short term power momentum’. I use it as additional information.
Enjoy, Eykpunter.

ADX Volatility Waves [BOSWaves]ADX Volatility Waves - Trend-Weighted Volatility Mapping with State-Based Wave Transitions
Overview
ADX Volatility Waves is a regime-aware volatility framework designed to map statistically significant price extremes through adaptive wave structures driven by trend strength.
Rather than treating volatility as a static dispersion metric, this indicator conditions all volatility expansion, contraction, and zone placement on ADX-derived trend intensity. Price behavior is interpreted through wave-like transitions between balance, expansion, and exhaustion states rather than isolated band interactions.
The result is a dynamic, gradient-based wave system that visually encodes volatility cycles and regime shifts in real time, allowing traders to contextualize price movement within trend-weighted volatility waves.
Price is evaluated not by static thresholds, but by its position and progression within adaptive volatility waves shaped by directional strength.
Conceptual Framework
ADX Volatility Waves is built on the premise that volatility unfolds in waves, not straight lines.
Traditional volatility tools identify dispersion but fail to account for how volatility behaves differently across trend regimes. By embedding ADX directly into volatility construction, this indicator ensures that volatility waves expand during strong directional phases and compress during weak or transitioning regimes.
Three guiding principles define the framework:
Volatility must be conditioned on trend strength
Extremes occur within zones, not at lines
Signals should emerge from completed wave transitions, not instantaneous touches
This reframes analysis from reactive mean-reversion toward regime-aware wave interpretation.
Theoretical Foundation
The indicator fuses directional movement theory with statistical volatility modeling.
Bollinger-derived dispersion provides the structural base, while ADX normalization controls the amplitude of volatility waves. As ADX increases, volatility waves widen and deepen; as ADX weakens, waves compress and tighten around equilibrium.
From this foundation, extended upper and lower wave zones are constructed and smoothed to represent statistically significant expansion and contraction phases.
At its core are three interacting systems:
ADX-Controlled Volatility Engine : Standard deviation is dynamically scaled using normalized ADX values, producing trend-weighted volatility waves.
Wave Zone Construction : Smoothed volatility boundaries are offset and expanded to form upper and lower wave zones, defining overextension and compression regions.
State-Based Wave Transition Logic : Signals occur only after price completes a full wave cycle: expansion into an extreme wave zone followed by a confirmed return to equilibrium.
This structure ensures that signals reflect completed volatility waves, not transient noise.
How It Works
ADX Volatility Waves processes price action through layered wave mechanics:
Trend-Weighted Volatility Calculation : Volatility boundaries are dynamically adjusted using ADX influence, allowing wave amplitude to scale with trend strength.
Structural Smoothing : Volatility boundaries are smoothed to stabilize wave geometry and reduce short-term distortions.
Wave Offset & Expansion : Upper and lower wave zones are positioned beyond equilibrium and expanded proportionally to volatility range, forming clearly defined expansion waves.
Gradient Wave Depth Mapping : Each wave zone is subdivided into multiple gradient layers, visually encoding increasing extremity as price moves deeper into a wave.
Wave State Tracking & Cooldown Control : The system tracks prior wave occupancy, enforces neutral stabilization periods, and applies cooldowns to prevent overlapping wave signals.
Compression Detection : Volatility width monitoring identifies compression phases, highlighting conditions where new volatility waves are likely to form.
Together, these processes create a continuous, adaptive wave map of volatility behavior.
Interpretation
ADX Volatility Waves reframes market reading around volatility cycles:
Upper Volatility Waves (Red Gradient) : Represent upside expansion phases. Deeper wave penetration indicates increased overextension relative to trend-adjusted volatility.
Lower Volatility Waves (Green Gradient) : Represent downside expansion phases. Sustained presence signals pressure, while exits toward balance suggest wave completion.
Equilibrium Zone : The neutral region between volatility waves. Confirmed re-entry into this zone marks the completion of a wave cycle and forms the basis for BUY and SELL signals.
Regime Context via ADX : Strong ADX regimes widen waves, reducing premature reversal signals. Weak ADX regimes compress waves, increasing sensitivity to reversion.
Wave progression and completion matter more than single-bar interactions.
Signal Logic & Visual Cues
ADX Volatility Waves produces single-entry BUY and SELL labels as its visual cues, plotted only when price first enters a volatility wave zone after the defined cooldown period.
Buy Signal (Bottom Zone Entry) : A BUY label appears when price enters the lower volatility wave (oversold zone). This highlights potential expansion into undervalued extremes, providing visual context for trend assessment rather than a guaranteed execution trigger.
Sell Signal (Top Zone Entry) : A SELL label appears when price enters the upper volatility wave (overbought zone). This marks potential overextension into upper volatility extremes, serving as a contextual indicator of trend stress.
All labels respect cooldown tracking to prevent clustering. Alerts are tied directly to these zone-entry signals, and a separate alert monitors volatility squeezes for awareness of compression periods.
Strategy Integration
ADX Volatility Waves integrates cleanly into volatility-aware trading frameworks:
Wave Context Mapping : Use wave depth to assess expansion and exhaustion risk rather than forcing immediate entries.
Transition-Based Execution : Prioritize BUY and SELL signals formed after confirmed wave completion.
Trend-Regime Filtering : In strong ADX regimes, treat waves as continuation pressure. In weak regimes, favor completed wave reversions.
Volatility Cycle Awareness : Monitor compression phases to anticipate the emergence of new volatility waves.
Multi-Timeframe Alignment : Apply higher-timeframe ADX regimes to contextualize lower-timeframe wave behavior.

RSI adaptive zones [AdaptiveRSI]This script introduces a unified mathematical framework that auto-scales oversold/overbought and support/resistance zones for any period length. It also adds true RSI candles for spotting intrabar signals.
Built on the Logit RSI foundation, this indicator converts RSI into a statistically normalized space, allowing all RSI lengths to share the same mathematical footing.
What was once based on experience and observation is now grounded in math.
✦ ✦ ✦ ✦ ✦
💡 Example Use Cases
RSI(14): Classic overbought/oversold signals + divergence
Support in an uptrend using RSI(14)
Range breakouts using RSI(21)
Short-term pullbacks using RSI(5)
✦ ✦ ✦ ✦ ✦
THE PAST: RSI Interpretation Required Multiple Rulebooks
Over decades, RSI practitioners discovered that RSI behaves differently depending on trend and lookback length:
• In uptrends, RSI tends to hold higher support zones (40–50)
• In downtrends, RSI tends to resist below 50–60
• Short RSIs (e.g., RSI(2)) require far more extreme threshold values
• Longer RSIs cluster near the center and rarely reach 70/30
These observations were correct — but lacked a unifying mathematical explanation.
✦ ✦ ✦ ✦ ✦
THE PRESENT: One Framework Handles RSI(2) to RSI(200)
Instead of using fixed thresholds (70/30, 90/10, etc.), this indicator maps RSI into a normalized statistical space using:
• The Logit transformation to remove 0–100 scale distortion
• A universal scaling based on 2/√(n−1) scaling factor to equalize distribution shapes
As a result, RSI values become directly comparable across all lookback periods.
✦ ✦ ✦ ✦ ✦
💡 How the Adaptive Zones Are Calculated
The adaptive framework defines RSI zones as statistical regimes derived from the Logit-transformed RSI .
Each boundary corresponds to a standard deviation (σ) threshold, scaled by 2/√(n−1), making RSI distributions comparable across periods.
This structure was inspired by Nassim Nicholas Taleb’s body–shoulders–tails regime model:
Body (±0.66σ) — consolidation / equilibrium
Shoulders (±1σ to ±2.14σ) — trending region
Tails (outside of ±2.14σ) — rare, high-volatility behavior
Transitions between these regimes are defined by the derivatives of the position (CDF) function :
• ±1σ → shift from consolidation to trend
• ±√3σ → shift from trend to exhaustion
Adaptive Zone Summary
Consolidation: −0.66σ to +0.66σ
Support/Resistance: ±0.66σ to ±1σ
Uptrend/Downtrend: ±1σ to ±√3σ
Overbought/Oversold: ±√3σ to ±2.14σ
Tails: outside of ±2.14σ
✦ ✦ ✦ ✦ ✦
📌 Inverse Transformation: From σ-Space Back to RSI
A final step is required to return these statistically normalized boundaries back into the familiar 0–100 RSI scale. Because the Logit transform maps RSI into an unbounded real-number domain, the inverse operation uses the hyperbolic tangent function to compress σ-space back into the bounded RSI range.
RSI(n) = 50 + 50 · tanh(z / √(n − 1))
The result is a smooth, mathematically consistent conversion where the same statistical thresholds maintain identical meaning across all RSI lengths, while still expressing themselves as intuitive RSI values traders already understand.
✦ ✦ ✦ ✦ ✦
Key Features
Mathematically derived adaptive zones for any RSI period
Support/resistance zone identification for trend-aligned reversals
Optional OHLC RSI bars/candles for intrabar zone interactions
Fully customizable zone visibility and colors
Statistically consistent interpretation across all markets and timeframes
Inputs
RSI Length — core parameter controlling zone scaling
RSI Display : Line / Bar / Candle visualization modes
✦ ✦ ✦ ✦ ✦
💡 How to Use
This indicator is a framework , not a binary signal generator.
Start by defining the question you want answered, e.g.:
• Where is the breakout?
• Is price overextended or still trending?
• Is the correction ending, or is trend reversing?
Then:
Choose the RSI length that matches your timeframe
Observe which adaptive zone price is interacting with
Interpret market behavior accordingly
Example: Long-Term Trend Assesment using RSI(200)
A trader may ask: "Is this a long term top?"
Unlikely, because RSI(200) holds above Resistance zone , therefore the trend remains strong.
✦ ✦ ✦ ✦ ✦
👉 Practical tip:
If you used to overlay weekly RSI(14) on a daily chart (getting a line that waits 5 sessions to recalculate), you can now read the same long-horizon state continuously : set RSI(70) on the daily chart (~14 weeks × 5 days/week = 70 days) and let the adaptive zones update every bar .
Note: It won’t be numerically identical to the weekly RSI due to lookback period used, but it tracks the same regime on a standardized scale with bar-by-bar updates.
✦ ✦ ✦ ✦ ✦
Note: This framework describes statistical structure, not prediction. Use as part of a complete trading approach. Past behavior does not guarantee future outcomes.
