Compare (RSI) MACDHere I've created an indicator which can be used together with my "Compare (RSI) Ticker 3x" Indicator.
It makes it much easier to see the movements between the "RSI Ticker 1" and "RSI Ticker 2/3".
- The white line is the "MACD" of Ticker 1, which is the difference between the "RSI Ticker 1" and "RSI Ticker 2/3".
- The purple line is the "Signal" line, an EMA of the "MACD". (Length is adjustable)
- The "0-line" is the "RSI Ticker 2/3" line, when Ticker 2 is chosen, this will be blue coloured, when Ticker 3 is chosen it will be red.
Because 2 MACD in 1 indicator is way too messy, you only can choose the comparison against Ticker 2 OR Ticker 3.
- In "Settings" > "Inputs" you can enable/disable the second or third Ticker
(If Ticker 2 is enabled, Ticker 3 is disabled and vice versa)
- The second Ticker has multiple choices
- The third you can type any Ticker you want, for example CRYPTOCAP:BNB, BINANCE:ETHUSDT, NASDAQ_DLY:NDX or whatever,
just start typing and you'll see the possibilities (You also can choose between "Cryptocurrencies", "Index", "Forex", ...)
- When the "MACD" crosses the "0-line", arrows will appear, white ones for "MACD", purple ones for the "Signal" line.
- The "Histogram" makes it easier to see the difference between "MACD" and "Signal" line.
- The source of this indicator is adjustable
- When the second chosen Ticker is the same as the first Ticker, of course you will be seeing lines
(because there is no difference between the 2 Tickers, the EMA is visible though)
If you use both "Compare (RSI) Ticker 3x" AND "Compare (RSI) MACD", of course be aware that you have the same Ticker 2 or 3 in each indicator!

## 📋 WHY YM? LEVERAGING LOW VOLATILITY
### The YM Advantage
Most traders avoid YM because "it doesn't move enough." This is precisely why it's perfect for precision scalping:
| Factor | NQ | YM | Advantage |
|--------|----|----|-----------|
| **Daily Range** | 300-600 pts | 150-400 pts | More predictable moves |
| **Tick Value** | $5/tick (4 ticks/pt) | $5/tick (1 tick/pt) | Simpler math |
| **Retail Noise** | High | Low | Cleaner signals |
| **Whipsaws** | Frequent | Rare | Fewer fakeouts |
| **Trend Persistence** | Short | Long | Easier holds |
| **Fill Quality** | Variable | Consistent | Better execution |
### Why 3-7 Trades is the Sweet Spot
```
YM SESSION BREAKDOWN:
════════════════════
LONDON (3-5 AM ET): 1-2 trades
├── Why: European institutions positioning for US open
├── Character: Slow build-up, clean trends
└── Best signals: Zone entries + A/B tier
NY OPEN (9:30-11:30 AM ET): 2-3 trades
├── Why: Highest volume, most institutional activity
├── Character: Initial balance formation, breakouts
└── Best signals: S/A tier, zone confluence
POWER HOUR (3-4 PM ET): 1-2 trades
├── Why: End-of-day rebalancing, MOC orders
├── Character: Mean reversion or trend acceleration
└── Best signals: Zone entries, B tier quick scalps
TOTAL: 4-7 high-quality setups per day
```

## 🔧 YM-SPECIFIC OPTIMIZATIONS
This unified indicator has been specifically tuned for YM's characteristics:
### Tier Thresholds
| Tier | NQ (Original) | YM (Optimized) | Rationale |
|------|---------------|----------------|-----------|
| S-Tier | 100 pts | **50 pts** | YM's daily range is ~50% of NQ |
| A-Tier | 50 pts | **25 pts** | Proportional scaling |
| B-Tier | 20 pts | **12 pts** | Still 5%+ of typical daily range |
### Filter Adjustments
| Filter | NQ Value | YM Value | Why |
|--------|----------|----------|-----|
| Volume Ratio | 1.5x | **1.8x** | Higher bar = less retail noise |
| Delta Threshold | 60% | **62%** | Tighter for cleaner signals |
| Body Ratio | 70% | **72%** | More conviction required |
| Range Multiplier | 1.3x | **1.4x** | Bigger move = real signal |
| Gap ATR% | 30% | **25%** | Smaller gaps still significant |
| Zone Age | 50 bars | **75 bars** | Zones last longer in slow market |
### Why These Changes Work
1. **Higher Volume Bar**: YM has more institutional flow. Requiring 1.8x volume ensures we're catching real moves, not retail chop.
2. **Tighter Delta**: With less noise, we can demand clearer buyer/seller dominance before entering.
3. **Longer Zone Life**: YM trends persist longer. A zone that would be stale in NQ is still viable in YM.
4. **Smaller Gap Threshold**: YM gaps are naturally smaller. 25% of ATR in YM is significant institutional activity.

## 📐 SIGNAL TYPES EXPLAINED
### 1. GRA Tier Signals (S🎯, A🎯, B🎯)
These are the primary signals from the merged GRA system:
```
TIER SIGNAL REQUIREMENTS:
═══════════════════════════
ALL must be TRUE:
├── ✓ Point movement meets tier threshold
├── ✓ Volume ≥ 1.8x average
├── ✓ Delta ≥ 62% (buy or sell dominance)
├── ✓ Body ≥ 72% of candle range
├── ✓ Range ≥ 1.4x average
├── ✓ Small opposite wick (<50% of body)
├── ✓ CVD confirms direction (if enabled)
├── ✓ Active session (LDN/NY/PWR)
└── ✓ Confluence Score ≥ minimum (default 5)
```
### 2. Zone Entry Signals (Z🎯)
When price enters a DeepFlow zone with confirmation:
```
ZONE ENTRY REQUIREMENTS:
═══════════════════════════
ALL must be TRUE:
├── ✓ Price inside fresh/tested zone (not broken)
├── ✓ Delta ≥ 62% in zone direction
├── ✓ Volume ≥ 1.5x average
└── ✓ Active session
NOTE: Z🎯 only appears when NOT already showing tier signal
(prevents duplicate signals on same candle)
```
### 3. Single Print Markers (SP)
Mark institutional impulse candles for future S/R:
```
SINGLE PRINT REQUIREMENTS:
═══════════════════════════
ALL must be TRUE:
├── ✓ Range ≥ 1.6x average
├── ✓ Body ≥ 72% of range
├── ✓ Volume ≥ 1.8x average
├── ✓ Delta ≥ 62% confirms direction
└── ✓ Active session
USE: Horizontal lines at high/low act as future S/R
```
---
## 🎯 TRADING STRATEGIES
### Strategy 1: Zone + Tier Confluence (Highest Probability)
```
THE ULTIMATE YM SETUP:
═══════════════════════
Setup:
1. Active DeepFlow zone exists (green box below for long)
2. Price pulls back INTO the zone
3. Tier signal fires INSIDE the zone (S🎯/A🎯)
4. Score shows 7+/10
Entry: Signal candle close
Stop: Below zone bottom (for longs)
Target: Based on tier (1.5-2.5:1 R:R)
Why It Works:
• Zone = institutional limit orders
• Tier signal = momentum confirmation
• Double confirmation = high probability
Expected Win Rate: 70-75%
```
### Strategy 2: Pure Tier Signal with POC Stop
```
SNIPER TIER TRADE:
══════════════════
Setup:
1. Tier signal appears (preferably A or S)
2. Score ≥ 5/10
3. Note POC level on signal candle
4. Red/green stop/target lines appear
Entry: Signal candle close
Stop: Beyond POC (shown on chart)
Target: Auto-calculated based on tier
Key: POC placement matters
• POC near candle bottom (longs) = STRONG
• POC in middle = weaker signal
• POC at extreme = possible exhaustion
Expected Win Rate: 60-65%
```
### Strategy 3: Zone Bounce (Continuation)
```
ZONE BOUNCE TRADE:
══════════════════
Setup:
1. Fresh zone created during session
2. Price leaves zone, moves in zone direction
3. Price returns to test zone (within 15 bars)
4. Z🎯 signal appears or rejection candle forms
Entry: At CE line (middle of zone)
Stop: Beyond zone edge
Target: Previous swing high/low
Why It Works:
• Zones represent unfilled orders
• First retest often finds support/resistance
• Lower volatility = cleaner bounces
Expected Win Rate: 55-60%
```
### Strategy 4: Single Print Scalp
```
SINGLE PRINT SCALP:
═══════════════════
Setup:
1. Single Print (SP) marker appears
2. Note the gold/purple lines at high/low
3. Wait for price to return to SP level
4. Look for rejection or tier signal at level
Entry: At SP line with confirmation
Stop: Beyond the SP line
Target: Quick 1:1 or to next structure
Why It Works:
• SP = price moved too fast, orders unfilled
• Price often returns to "fill" these levels
• YM's slower pace makes retests likely
Expected Win Rate: 55-60%
```

Volatility-Targeted Momentum Portfolio [BackQuant]Volatility-Targeted Momentum Portfolio
A complete momentum portfolio engine that ranks assets, targets a user-defined volatility, builds long, short, or delta-neutral books, and reports performance with metrics, attribution, Monte Carlo scenarios, allocation pie, and efficiency scatter plots. This description explains the theory and the mechanics so you can configure, validate, and deploy it with intent.

Suggested workflow
1) What the script does at a glance
Pulls a list of up to 15 tickers, computes a simple momentum score on each over a configurable lookback, then volatility-scales their bar-to-bar return stream to a target annualized volatility.
Ranks assets by raw momentum, selects the top 3 and bottom 3, builds positions according to the chosen mode, and gates exposure with a fast regime filter.
Accumulates a portfolio equity curve with risk and performance metrics, optional benchmark buy-and-hold for comparison, and a full alert suite.
Adds visual diagnostics: performance attribution bars, Monte Carlo forward paths, an allocation pie, and scatter plots for risk-return and factor views.
2) Momentum: definition, detection, and validation
Momentum is the tendency of assets that have performed well to continue to perform well, and of underperformers to continue underperforming, over a specific horizon. You operationalize it by selecting a horizon, defining a signal, ranking assets, and trading the leaders versus laggards subject to risk constraints.
Signal choices . Common signals include cumulative return over a lookback window, regression slope on log-price, or normalized rate-of-change. This script uses cumulative return over lookback bars for ranking (variable cr = price/price - 1). It keeps the ranking simple and lets volatility targeting handle risk normalization.
How to know momentum is present .
Leaders and laggards persist across adjacent windows rather than flipping every bar.
Spread between average momentum of leaders and laggards is materially positive in sample.
Cross-sectional dispersion is non-trivial. If everything is flat or highly correlated with no separation, momentum selection will be weak.
Your validation should include a diagnostic that measures whether returns are explained by a momentum regression on the timeseries.
Recommended diagnostic tool . Before running any momentum portfolio, verify that a timeseries exhibits stable directional drift. Use this indicator as a pre-check: It fits a regression to price, exposes slope and goodness-of-fit style context, and helps confirm if there is usable momentum before you force a ranking into a flat regime.
3) Volatility targeting: purpose and implementation here
Purpose . Volatility targeting seeks a more stable risk footprint. High-vol assets get sized down, low-vol assets get sized up, so each contributes more evenly to total risk.
Computation in this script (per asset, rolling):
Return series ret = log(price/price ).
Annualized volatility estimate vol = stdev(ret, lookback) * sqrt(tradingdays).
Leverage multiplier volMult = clamp(targetVol / vol, 0.1, 5.0).
This caps sizing so extremely low-vol assets don’t explode weight and extremely high-vol assets don’t go to zero.
Scaled return stream sr = ret * volMult. This is the per-bar, risk-adjusted building block used in the portfolio combinations.
Interpretation . You are not levering your account on the exchange, you are rescaling the contribution each asset’s daily move has on the modeled equity. In live trading you would reflect this with position sizing or notional exposure.
4) Portfolio construction modes
Cross-sectional ranking . Assets are sorted by cr over the chosen lookback. Top and bottom indices are extracted without ties.
Long Only . Averages the volatility-scaled returns of the top 3 assets: avgRet = mean(sr_top1, sr_top2, sr_top3). Position table shows per-asset leverages and weights proportional to their current volMult.
Short Only . Averages the negative of the volatility-scaled returns of the bottom 3: avgRet = mean(-sr_bot1, -sr_bot2, -sr_bot3). Position table shows short legs.
Delta Neutral . Long the top 3 and short the bottom 3 in equal book sizes. Each side is sized to 50 percent notional internally, with weights within each side proportional to volMult. The return stream mixes the two sides: avgRet = mean(sr_top1,sr_top2,sr_top3, -sr_bot1,-sr_bot2,-sr_bot3).
Notes .
The selection metric is raw momentum, the execution stream is volatility-scaled returns. This separation is deliberate. It avoids letting volatility dominate ranking while still enforcing risk parity at the return contribution stage.
If everything rallies together and dispersion collapses, Long Only may behave like a single beta. Delta Neutral is designed to extract cross-sectional momentum with low net beta.
5) Regime filter
A fast EMA(12) vs EMA(21) filter gates exposure.
Long Only active when EMA12 > EMA21. Otherwise the book is set to cash.
Short Only active when EMA12 < EMA21. Otherwise cash.
Delta Neutral is always active.
This prevents taking long momentum entries during obvious local downtrends and vice versa for shorts. When the filter is false, equity is held flat for that bar.
6) Transaction cost modelling
There are two cost touchpoints in the script.
Per-bar drag . When the regime filter is active, the per-bar return is reduced by fee_rate * avgRet inside netRet = avgRet - (fee_rate * avgRet). This models proportional friction relative to traded impact on that bar.
Turnover-linked fee . The script tracks changes in membership of the top and bottom baskets (top1..top3, bot1..bot3). The intent is to charge fees when composition changes. The template counts changes and scales a fee by change count divided by 6 for the six slots.
Use case: increase fee_rate to reflect taker fees and slippage if you rebalance every bar or trade illiquid assets. Reduce it if you rebalance less often or use maker orders.
Practical advice .
If you rebalance daily, start with 5–20 bps round-trip per switch on liquid futures and adjust per venue.
For crypto perp microcaps, stress higher cost assumptions and add slippage buffers.
If you only rotate on lookback boundaries or at signals, use alert-driven rebalances and lower per-bar drag.
7) Backtest metrics and definitions
The script computes a standard set of portfolio statistics once the start date is reached.
Net Profit percent over the full test.
Max Drawdown percent, tracked from running peaks.
Annualized Mean and Stdev using the chosen trading day count.
Variance is the square of annualized stdev.
Sharpe uses daily mean adjusted by risk-free rate and annualized.
Sortino uses downside stdev only.
Omega ratio of sum of gains to sum of losses.
Gain-to-Pain total gains divided by total losses absolute.
CAGR compounded annual growth from start date to now.
Alpha, Beta versus a user-selected benchmark. Beta from covariance of daily returns, Alpha from CAPM.
Skewness of daily returns.
VaR 95 linear-interpolated 5th percentile of daily returns.
CVaR average of the worst 5 percent of daily returns.
Benchmark Buy-and-Hold equity path for comparison.
8) Performance attribution
Cumulative contribution per asset, adjusted for whether it was held long or short and for its volatility multiplier, aggregated across the backtest. You can filter to winners only or show both sides. The panel is sorted by contribution and includes percent labels.
9) Monte Carlo simulation
The panel draws forward equity paths from either a Normal model parameterized by recent mean and stdev, or non-parametric bootstrap of recent daily returns. You control the sample length, number of simulations, forecast horizon, visibility of individual paths, confidence bands, and a reproducible seed.
Normal uses Box-Muller with your seed. Good for quick, smooth envelopes.
Bootstrap resamples realized returns, preserving fat tails and volatility clustering better than a Gaussian assumption.
Bands show 10th, 25th, 75th, 90th percentiles and the path mean.
10) Scatter plot analysis
Four point-cloud modes, each plotting all assets and a star for the current portfolio position, with quadrant guides and labels.
Risk-Return Efficiency . X is risk proxy from leverage, Y is expected return from annualized momentum. The star shows the current book’s composite.
Momentum vs Volatility . Visualizes whether leaders are also high vol, a cue for turnover and cost expectations.
Beta vs Alpha . X is a beta proxy, Y is risk-adjusted excess return proxy. Useful to see if leaders are just beta.
Leverage vs Momentum . X is volMult, Y is momentum. Shows how volatility targeting is redistributing risk.
11) Asset allocation pie chart
Builds a wheel of current allocations.
Long Only, weights are proportional to each long asset’s current volMult and sum to 100 percent.
Short Only, weights show the short book as positive slices that sum to 100 percent.
Delta Neutral, 50 percent long and 50 percent short books, each side leverage-proportional.
Labels can show asset, percent, and current leverage.
12) Inputs and quick presets
Core
Portfolio Strategy . Long Only, Short Only, Delta Neutral.
Initial Capital . For equity scaling in the panel.
Trading Days/Year . 252 for stocks, 365 for crypto.
Target Volatility . Annualized, drives volMult.
Transaction Fees . Per-bar drag and composition change penalty, see the modelling notes above.
Momentum Lookback . Ranking horizon. Shorter is more reactive, longer is steadier.
Start Date . Ensure every symbol has data back to this date to avoid bias.
Benchmark . Used for alpha, beta, and B&H line.
Diagnostics
Metrics, Equity, B&H, Curve labels, Daily return line, Rolling drawdown fill.
Attribution panel. Toggle winners only to focus on what matters.
Monte Carlo mode with Normal or Bootstrap and confidence bands.
Scatter plot type and styling, labels, and portfolio star.
Pie chart and labels for current allocation.
Presets
Crypto Daily, Long Only . Lookback 25, Target Vol 50 percent, Fees 10 bps, Regime filter on, Metrics and Drawdown on. Monte Carlo Bootstrap with Recent 200 bars for bands.
Crypto Daily, Delta Neutral . Lookback 25, Target Vol 50 percent, Fees 15–25 bps, Regime filter always active for this mode. Use Scatter Risk-Return to monitor efficiency and keep the star near upper left quadrants without drifting rightward.
Equities Daily, Long Only . Lookback 60–120, Target Vol 15–20 percent, Fees 5–10 bps, Regime filter on. Use Benchmark SPX and watch Alpha and Beta to keep the book from becoming index beta.
13) Suggested workflow
Universe sanity check . Pick liquid tickers with stable data. Thin assets distort vol estimates and fees.
Check momentum existence . Run on your timeframe. If slope and fit are weak, widen lookback or avoid that asset or timeframe.
Set risk budget . Choose a target volatility that matches your drawdown tolerance. Higher target increases turnover and cost sensitivity.
Pick mode . Long Only for bull regimes, Short Only for sustained downtrends, Delta Neutral for cross-sectional harvesting when index direction is unclear.
Tune lookback . If leaders rotate too often, lengthen it. If entries lag, shorten it.
Validate cost assumptions . Increase fee_rate and stress Monte Carlo. If the edge vanishes with modest friction, refine selection or lengthen rebalance cadence.
Run attribution . Confirm the strategy’s winners align with intuition and not one unstable outlier.
Use alerts . Enable position change, drawdown, volatility breach, regime, momentum shift, and crash alerts to supervise live runs.
Important implementation details mapped to code
Momentum measure . cr = price / price - 1 per symbol for ranking. Simplicity helps avoid overfitting.
Volatility targeting . vol = stdev(log returns, lookback) * sqrt(tradingdays), volMult = clamp(targetVol / vol, 0.1, 5), sr = ret * volMult.
Selection . Extract indices for top1..top3 and bot1..bot3. The arrays rets, scRets, lev_vals, and ticks_arr track momentum, scaled returns, leverage multipliers, and display tickers respectively.
Regime filter . EMA12 vs EMA21 switch determines if the strategy takes risk for Long or Short modes. Delta Neutral ignores the gate.
Equity update . Equity multiplies by 1 + netRet only when the regime was active in the prior bar. Buy-and-hold benchmark is computed separately for comparison.
Tables . Position tables show current top or bottom assets with leverage and weights. Metric table prints all risk and performance figures.
Visualization panels . Attribution, Monte Carlo, scatter, and pie use the last bars to draw overlays that update as the backtest proceeds.
Final notes
Momentum is a portfolio effect. The edge comes from cross-sectional dispersion, adequate risk normalization, and disciplined turnover control, not from a single best asset call.
Volatility targeting stabilizes path but does not fix selection. Use the momentum regression link above to confirm structure exists before you size into it.
Always test higher lag costs and slippage, then recheck metrics, attribution, and Monte Carlo envelopes. If the edge persists under stress, you have something robust.
RSI ExtremesRSI Extremes — Educational Indicator (Pine v5)
Per-Tick Dual-RSI Extremes · Real-Time Visualization · Cooldown Logic
Overview
RSI Extremes is a real-time educational indicator built to show where the Relative Strength Index (RSI) reaches its most extreme levels during every tick of live price action.
Instead of using only the candle close, it continuously tracks both RSI(low) and RSI(high) to reveal how deeply each bar stretches into demand or supply extremes.
This tool is meant solely for study and visualization, helping you understand how RSI behaves intrabar when price wicks expand. It produces no signals, no alerts, and no trade suggestions — it’s a microscope for momentum pressure.
Core Idea
Standard RSI hides a lot of the wick-based stress in price because it calculates from close values only.
RSI Extremes solves this by splitting the measurement into two perspectives:
RSI of LOW (green) → shows how far momentum falls into potential demand exhaustion.
RSI of HIGH (red) → shows how far momentum extends into potential supply exhaustion.
Seeing both together exposes the full oscillation envelope — what RSI looks like between candle opens and closes, not just after the fact.
What Gets Plotted
RSI (Low) — green line representing intrabar downside pressure.
RSI (High) — red line representing intrabar upside pressure.
RSI Ghost (Smoothed) — gray line for soft context only.
Bands: 30 / 50 / 70 visual guides with a shaded 30–70 region.
Markers:
Enter marker when RSI(low) ≤ levelEnter (default 15).
Exit marker when RSI(high) ≥ levelExit (default 85).
Markers appear in real time as soon as a touch occurs and are locked per bar to avoid duplicates.
Inputs & Educational Purpose
Input Description Learning Focus
Source (for ghost smoother) Data used for the ghost RSI. Observe RSI smoothing lag.
RSI Length Period for both RSI(high) and RSI(low). Shorter = faster reaction; longer = smoother.
RSI-based MA Length (ghost) Smoothing for the ghost line. Compare sharp vs smoothed RSI rhythm.
levelEnter (touch or below) Default 15. Study how deep RSI(low) falls during market stress.
levelExit (touch or above) Default 85. Study how high RSI(high) rises during momentum bursts.
Rest period (bars) Cooldown after any event. Encourages post-event observation and prevents overlap.
Real-Time Behavior
Evaluates conditions per tick, not only at bar close.
Uses both real-time detection and bar-close backup for reliability.
Employs per-bar locks to prevent duplicate markers.
Integrates a cooldown so new markers only appear after the rest period.
The result is a clean, stable display of RSI stress points in live price motion — no flicker, no repaint.
How to Study with RSI Extremes
Watch how Enter markers form during sharp sell wicks — these highlight where intrabar RSI(low) dives into extreme territory.
Watch how Exit markers appear during aggressive tops — these show when RSI(high) surges beyond its upper boundary.
Compare both lines to the gray ghost: if the ghost is rising while Enter markers print, you’re seeing a temporary overshoot within strengthening momentum; if it’s falling while Exit markers print, you’re seeing supply exhaustion in weakening momentum.
Use cooldown spacing to examine how long markets take to recover or consolidate after an extreme tick.
Educational Value
Learn how RSI behaves inside a candle rather than only at its close.
Visualize how volatility affects the amplitude of RSI swings.
Understand that extremes don’t mean reversal — they measure intensity, not direction.
Build intuition for momentum saturation and liquidity hunts.
This indicator turns RSI into a real-time stress monitor rather than a delayed oscillator.

ICT First Presented FVG with Volume Imbalance [1st P. FVG + VI]The indicator identifies and highlights the first presented Fair Value Gap (FVG) occurringthe morning (09:30–10:00) and afternoon (13:30–14:00) session's first 30 minutes. It includes an optional feature to extend FVG zones when a volume imbalance (V.I.) is detected, providing additional context for areas of potential price inefficiency. This powerful combination helps traders identify significant market structure gaps that often act as support/resistance zones and potential price targets.
What is an FVG?
A Fair Value Gap, often abbreviated as FVG, is a price range on a chart where there is an inefficiency or imbalance in trading. This typically happens when price moves rapidly in one direction, leaving a gap between the wicks or bodies of three consecutive candles. For example, in a bullish move, if the low of the third candle is higher than the high of the first candle, the space between them is the FVG.
What is a Volume Imbalance?
A volume imbalance is a smaller, more precise inefficiency within price action, often visible as a "crack" or thin area in the price delivery. It represents a spot where the volume traded was not balanced between buyers and sellers, often seen as a thin wick or a gap between candle bodies.
FVG + Volume Imbalance:
When you have a fair value gap that contains a volume imbalance, it becomes a more significant area of interest. ICT teaches that you should not ignore a volume imbalance if it’s part of an FVG. In fact, you should use the volume imbalance in conjunction with the FVG to define your trading range more accurately
📊 Volume Imbalance Integration

Quantum Flux Universal Strategy Summary in one paragraph
Quantum Flux Universal is a regime switching strategy for stocks, ETFs, index futures, major FX pairs, and liquid crypto on intraday and swing timeframes. It helps you act only when the normalized core signal and its guide agree on direction. It is original because the engine fuses three adaptive drivers into the smoothing gains itself. Directional intensity is measured with binary entropy, path efficiency shapes trend quality, and a volatility squash preserves contrast. Add it to a clean chart, watch the polarity lane and background, and trade from positive or negative alignment. For conservative workflows use on bar close in the alert settings when you add alerts in a later version.
Scope and intent
• Markets. Large cap equities and ETFs. Index futures. Major FX pairs. Liquid crypto
• Timeframes. One minute to daily
• Default demo used in the publication. QQQ on one hour
• Purpose. Provide a robust and portable way to detect when momentum and confirmation align, while dampening chop and preserving turns
• Limits. This is a strategy. Orders are simulated on standard candles only
Originality and usefulness
• Unique concept or fusion. The novelty sits in the gain map. Instead of gating separate indicators, the model mixes three drivers into the adaptive gains that power two one pole filters. Directional entropy measures how one sided recent movement has been. Kaufman style path efficiency scores how direct the path has been. A volatility squash stabilizes step size. The drivers are blended into the gains with visible inputs for strength, windows, and clamps.
• What failure mode it addresses. False starts in chop and whipsaw after fast spikes. Efficiency and the squash reduce over reaction in noise.
• Testability. Every component has an input. You can lengthen or shorten each window and change the normalization mode. The polarity plot and background provide a direct readout of state.
• Portable yardstick. The core is normalized with three options. Z score, percent rank mapped to a symmetric range, and MAD based Z score. Clamp bounds define the effective unit so context transfers across symbols.
Method overview in plain language
The strategy computes two smoothed tracks from the chart price source. The fast track and the slow track use gains that are not fixed. Each gain is modulated by three drivers. A driver for directional intensity, a driver for path efficiency, and a driver for volatility. The difference between the fast and the slow tracks forms the raw flux. A small phase assist reduces lag by subtracting a portion of the delayed value. The flux is then normalized. A guide line is an EMA of a small lead on the flux. When the flux and its guide are both above zero, the polarity is positive. When both are below zero, the polarity is negative. Polarity changes create the trade direction.
Base measures
• Return basis. The step is the change in the chosen price source. Its absolute value feeds the volatility estimate. Mean absolute step over the window gives a stable scale.
• Efficiency basis. The ratio of net move to the sum of absolute step over the window gives a value between zero and one. High values mean trend quality. Low values mean chop.
• Intensity basis. The fraction of up moves over the window plugs into binary entropy. Intensity is one minus entropy, which maps to zero in uncertainty and one in very one sided moves.
Components
• Directional Intensity. Measures how one sided recent bars have been. Smoothed with RMA. More intensity increases the gain and makes the fast and slow tracks react sooner.
• Path Efficiency. Measures the straightness of the price path. A gamma input shapes the curve so you can make trend quality count more or less. Higher efficiency lifts the gain in clean trends.
• Volatility Squash. Normalizes the absolute step with Z score then pushes it through an arctangent squash. This caps the effect of spikes so they do not dominate the response.
• Normalizer. Three modes. Z score for familiar units, percent rank for a robust monotone map to a symmetric range, and MAD based Z for outlier resistance.
• Guide Line. EMA of the flux with a small lead term that counteracts lag without heavy overshoot.
Fusion rule
• Weighted sum of the three drivers with fixed weights visible in the code comments. Intensity has fifty percent weight. Efficiency thirty percent. Volatility twenty percent.
• The blend power input scales the driver mix. Zero means fixed spans. One means full driver control.
• Minimum and maximum gain clamps bound the adaptive gain. This protects stability in quiet or violent regimes.
Signal rule
• Long suggestion appears when flux and guide are both above zero. That sets polarity to plus one.
• Short suggestion appears when flux and guide are both below zero. That sets polarity to minus one.
• When polarity flips from plus to minus, the strategy closes any long and enters a short.
• When flux crosses above the guide, the strategy closes any short.
What you will see on the chart
• White polarity plot around the zero line
• A dotted reference line at zero named Zen
• Green background tint for positive polarity and red background tint for negative polarity
• Strategy long and short markers placed by the TradingView engine at entry and at close conditions
• No table in this version to keep the visual clean and portable
Inputs with guidance
Setup
• Price source. Default ohlc4. Stable for noisy symbols.
• Fast span. Typical range 6 to 24. Raising it slows the fast track and can reduce churn. Lowering it makes entries more reactive.
• Slow span. Typical range 20 to 60. Raising it lengthens the baseline horizon. Lowering it brings the slow track closer to price.
Logic
• Guide span. Typical range 4 to 12. A small guide smooths without eating turns.
• Blend power. Typical range 0.25 to 0.85. Raising it lets the drivers modulate gains more. Lowering it pushes behavior toward fixed EMA style smoothing.
• Vol window. Typical range 20 to 80. Larger values calm the volatility driver. Smaller values adapt faster in intraday work.
• Efficiency window. Typical range 10 to 60. Larger values focus on smoother trends. Smaller values react faster but accept more noise.
• Efficiency gamma. Typical range 0.8 to 2.0. Above one increases contrast between clean trends and chop. Below one flattens the curve.
• Min alpha multiplier. Typical range 0.30 to 0.80. Lower values increase smoothing when the mix is weak.
• Max alpha multiplier. Typical range 1.2 to 3.0. Higher values shorten smoothing when the mix is strong.
• Normalization window. Typical range 100 to 300. Larger values reduce drift in the baseline.
• Normalization mode. Z score, percent rank, or MAD Z. Use MAD Z for outlier heavy symbols.
• Clamp level. Typical range 2.0 to 4.0. Lower clamps reduce the influence of extreme runs.
Filters
• Efficiency filter is implicit in the gain map. Raising efficiency gamma and the efficiency window increases the preference for clean trends.
• Micro versus macro relation is handled by the fast and slow spans. Increase separation for swing, reduce for scalping.
• Location filter is not included in v1.0. If you need distance gates from a reference such as VWAP or a moving mean, add them before publication of a new version.
Alerts
• This version does not include alertcondition lines to keep the core minimal. If you prefer alerts, add names Long Polarity Up, Short Polarity Down, Exit Short on Flux Cross Up in a later version and select on bar close for conservative workflows.
Strategy has been currently adapted for the QQQ asset with 30/60min timeframe.

Untouched ExtremesWhat it is
Untouched Extremes plots horizontal levels at green-candle highs and red-candle lows. Each level is considered “untouched” (clean liquidity) until price revisits it; on the first valid touch the line auto-deletes, keeping only live targets on your chart.
How it works (logic)
Bar close event
If close > open, the script draws a line at that bar’s high and extends it to the right.
If close < open, it draws a line at that bar’s low and extends it to the right.
(Optional) Perfect/almost-dojis can be classified as green or red via settings.
Touch & removal
A green-high line is removed when any later bar’s high ≥ level (optionally within a tick tolerance).
A red-low line is removed when any later bar’s low ≤ level (optionally within a tick tolerance).
You can delay deletion by N bars to make the touch visible before the line disappears.
Housekeeping
Maximum active lines per side and line styling are user-configurable.
Why it’s useful
Untouched highs/lows often coincide with resting liquidity and incomplete price probes. Tracking them helps:
Define targets and magnets price may seek.
Frame mean-reversion rotations after a failed push.
Keep the chart clean: only levels that have not been traded are displayed.
How to use it (trading idea)
Confirmation rule: Treat the line as a level/zone. Price can pierce it; wait for a clear reversal candle pattern (e.g., pin bar, engulfing, strong momentum shift) at or immediately after the touch.
Directional play:
If a bullish reversal pattern forms at/around a red-low line, the working assumption is that price will move toward the first untouched upper line (nearest green-high line above). Many traders use that as the primary target.
Conversely, if a bearish reversal pattern forms at/around a green-high line, expect rotation toward the first untouched lower line.
Risk management: Stops typically go just beyond the level or beyond the pattern’s wick. Consider a fixed R:R (e.g., 1:2) and partials at intermediate levels.
Settings
Doji handling: Choose how to classify close ≈ open bars (Green / Red / Ignore). A small equality margin (ticks) helps with rounding on some symbols.
Touch tolerance (ticks): Counts near-misses as touches if desired.
Deletion delay (bars): Wait N bars after creation before a line becomes eligible for deletion.
Max lines per side / width / colors: Keep the view readable.
Tips
Works on any symbol/timeframe; lower TFs produce more levels—adjust Max lines accordingly.
Combining with a trend filter (e.g., EMA-200), ATR distance, or volume clues can improve selectivity.
If spreads or wicks are noisy, increase tolerance slightly and/or use deletion delay to visualize touches.
Note: This tool provides structure and potential targets, not signals by itself. Always require your reversal pattern as confirmation and manage risk appropriately.
Range TableThe Range Table indicator calculates and displays the Daily Average True Range (ATR), the current day's True Range (TR), and two customizable ATR percentage values in a clean table format.

- Displays the Daily ATR (14-period) and current day's True Range (TR) with its percentage of the Daily ATR.
- Includes two customizable ATR percentages (default: 75% and 10%, with the second disabled by default).
- Shows values in ticks, points, and USD based on the symbol's tick size and point value.
- Customizable table position, background color, text color, and font size.
- Toggle visibility for the table and percentage rows via input settings.
**How to Use:**
1. Add the indicator to your chart.
2. Adjust the table position, colors, and font size in the input settings.
3. Enable or disable the 75% and 10% ATR rows or customize their percentages.
4. Use the displayed values to set stop-loss or take-profit levels based on volatility.
**Ideal For:**
- Day traders and swing traders looking to set volatility-based stop-losses.
- Users analyzing tick, point, and USD-based risk metrics.
**Notes:**
- Ensure your chart is set to a timeframe that aligns with the daily ATR calculations.
- USD values are approximate if `syminfo.pointvalue` is unavailable.

Master Candle Breakout V1 Master Candle Breakout V1 - Indicator Description
The Master Candle Breakout V1 indicator is a powerful price action-based tool designed to help traders identify and capitalize on breakout opportunities from consolidation phases. This indicator is particularly useful for identifying master candles, which are large candles that encompass the range of subsequent candles, creating a key level of support or resistance. Once the price breaks above or below the range of the master candle, the indicator provides clear buy or sell signals, allowing traders to ride the momentum of the breakout.
Key Features:
Master Candle Detection: The indicator identifies master candles based on a user-defined period, marking them on the chart as critical breakout points.
Buy and Sell Signals: When the price breaks above the master candle's high, a buy signal is plotted. Similarly, when the price breaks below the master candle's low, a sell signal is generated. These signals are displayed on the chart with customizable shapes (diamonds, arrows, circles, crosses) and colors for easy visualization.
Stop-Loss Level Display: For risk management, the indicator calculates and plots a stop-loss level based on user-defined ticks above or below the master candle's high or low. The stop-loss value is shown as a label next to the signal, helping traders manage risk effectively.
Customizable Colors and Shapes: Users can fully customize the appearance of the signals, including the color of the buy/sell diamonds, the stop-loss label text color, and the type of shape used for the signals.
Versatile Application: The Master Candle Breakout V1 can be applied to any timeframe and market, from forex and stocks to commodities and cryptocurrencies, making it a highly versatile tool for traders of all types.
How to Use:
Master Candle Period: Define how many candles should follow the master candle for confirmation.
Stop Loss Ticks: Set the number of ticks above or below the master candle to define your stop-loss level.
Entry Signals: Once the price closes outside the high or low of the master candle, enter the trade accordingly (buy on breakouts above the high, sell on breakouts below the low).
Risk Management: Use the stop-loss level provided by the indicator to minimize losses and protect your capital.
This indicator is perfect for traders who prefer a simple, price-action-based strategy and want to avoid the clutter of traditional indicators. By focusing on the core principle of breakouts, Master Candle Breakout V1 helps traders quickly identify consolidation zones and potential breakout trades.
Cumulative Volume Delta Strategy | Flux Charts💎 GENERAL OVERVIEW
Introducing the Cumulative Volume Delta Strategy (CVDS) Indicator, an advanced tool designed to enhance trading strategies by identifying potential trend reversals through volume dynamics. This script features integrated order block detection, Fair Value Gaps (FVGs), and a dynamic take-profit (TP) and stop-loss (SL) system. For an in-depth understanding of the strategy, refer to the "HOW DOES IT WORK?" section below.
Features of the new Cumulative Volume Delta Strategy (CVDS) Indicator :
Cumulative Volume Delta-based Strategy
Order Block and Fair Value Gap (FVG) Entry Methods
Dynamic TP/SL System
Customizable Risk Management Settings
Alerts for Buy, Sell, TP, and SL Signals
📌 HOW DOES IT WORK ?
The CVDS indicator operates by tracking the net volume difference between buyers and sellers to identify divergences that could indicate potential trend reversals. A cumulative volume delta (CVD) calculation is employed to measure the intensity of these divergences in relation to price movements. The net volume sum is reset every trading day (can be changed from the settings using the anchor period option), and divergences are detected when the cumulative volume crosses the 0-line over or under.
Once a significant divergence is detected, the indicator identifies breakout points, confirmed by either Fair Value Gaps (FVGs) or Order Blocks (OBs). Depending on your chosen entry mode, the indicator will trigger a buy or sell entry when the confirmation signal aligns with the breakout direction. Alerts for Buy, Sell, Take-Profit, and Stop-Loss are available.
Note that the indicator cannot run on 1-minute and 1-second charts, as it needs to get data from a lower timeframe. 1-minutes & 1-second timeframes are the minimum timeframes in their ranges respectively.
🚩 UNIQUENESS
What sets this indicator apart is the combination of volume divergence analysis with advanced price action tools like Fair Value Gaps (FVGs) and Order Blocks (OBs). The ability to choose between these methods, along with a dynamic TP/SL system that adapts based on volatility, provides flexibility for traders in any market condition. The backtesting dashboard provides metrics about the performance of the indicator. You can use it to tune the settings for best use in the current ticker. The CVD-based strategy ensures that trades are initiated only when meaningful divergences between volume and price occur, filtering out noise and increasing the likelihood of profitable trades.
⚙️ SETTINGS
1. General Configuration
Anchor Period: Time anchor period used in CVD calculation. This is essentially the period that the volume delta sum will be reset. Lower timeframes may result in more entries at the cost of less reliable results.
Entry Mode: Choose between FVGs or OBs to trigger your entries based on the confirmation signals.
Retracement Requirement: Enable to confirm the entry after a retracement toward the FVG or OB.
2. Fair Value Gaps
FVG Sensitivity: Modify the sensitivity of FVG detection, allowing for more or fewer gaps to be considered valid.
3. Order Blocks (OB)
Swing Length: Define the swing length to identify OB formations. Shorter lengths find smaller OBs, while longer lengths detect larger structures.
4. TP / SL
TP / SL Method:
a) Dynamic: The TP / SL zones will be auto-determined by the algorithm based on the Average True Range (ATR) of the current ticker.
b) Fixed : You can adjust the exact TP / SL ratios from the settings below.
Dynamic Risk: The risk you're willing to take if "Dynamic" TP / SL Method is selected. Higher risk usually means a better winrate at the cost of losing more if the strategy fails. This setting is has a crucial effect on the performance of the indicator, as different tickers may have different volatility so the indicator may have increased performance when this setting is correctly adjusted.

Correlated Movement Indicator V2Hello!
This script was briefly known as as Bing Chilling. I converted this to Pine Script V5 to ensure compliance with publishing requirements.
This script tracks RSI and inserts an indicator when correlated movement is detected. Proximity of current tick to indicator origin tick determines freshness of the indicator.
DO NOT sit on the indicator for a long time. This is not a magic solution. It is very accurate but, not always precise. Ensure that you use other factors to determine the relevance of the indicator on current tick. This script can technically be used on any security/commodity/currency. Your Mileage May Vary! Proceed with caution as always.
General Workflow:
Look at proximity to where the flag is placed, general volatility, and other indicators and you can potentially determine the direction/strength. Not always the duration. The indicator could be for 30s, 1hr, 1 day, or whatever the market feels like. It depends on precision/quantity of pricing data. ex. 30min tick rate pricing vs. 1 day tick rate pricing will change the scope.
So if the time scope shows all sell from 1 week -> 3 months except for a couple recent buy indicators on the day, then it may be a bad call long term but, might be good for a short term play. Very volatile. Careful.
If it was all green with long term indicators such as 1 month -> 1 year, then it looks more like a buy and forget type strategy.
If it's all green with a recent red then you can try and figure out what the relative the bottom is so you can buy for long term at a slightly more favorable price.
Flip all that for shorting. I highly recommend AGAINST shorting since the stakes are very different and usually involves taking out what is essentially a loan to bet against the market.
This script pairs nicely with the top pick indicator when you search "Heiken Ashi". I use that to determine peaks and pits to better guess a good time to open a position.
This should be used alongside other indicators. Good for short term day trading and long term hold and forget. (Don't actually forget. Set some alerts periodically.)
Please use caution. Please do not take what I've said here as fact and diamond pepe hands bet all on green to the moon. This, like all the other strategies and indicators on this site, are used as tools to inform you about potential and to categorize/depict data in a more human recognizable way. If you have access to a paper account try there first.
Happy trading!

Short Interest Tracker [SS]This is a simple indicator that is designed to provide you with a synopsis of short interest on the daily, weekly and monthly timeframes.
How it works:
It pulls FINRA ticker data on short volume for whichever ticker you are on. It works with all tickers provided they are listed on FINRA (which is all tickers).
It will not work with futures, for futures, you would want to use a COT-based indicator, but for indices and equities, this indicator will provide you with the short volume information.
What it shows:
It breaks short volume down into current short volume, the 14-period SMA of short volume over the day, week and month, it also provides you with a short volume to SMA ratio. This is Short Volume divided by the SMA. Anything below 1 is good, it means short interest is low. Anything above 1 is not good, it means that short volume is above the SMA.
It also will show you the weekly, daily and monthly short volume change.
And last but not least, it will tell you whether short interest is falling, rising or steady. How it does this is by tracking whether the SMA is increasing, decreasing or stagnant.
Customization:
You can customize the SMA length and the assessment of whether short volume is increasing or decreasing. The default SMA length is 14 and the default assessment of rising/falling short volume is 4. This means, short volume has to rise or fall over a 4-period timeframe for it to register. So on the week, if it displays short volume increasing, it means that, over the past 4 weeks, the sma has steadily risen. Inverse if it decreases. If you want it to be more sensitive, you can reduce it to 2 or 3. If you want it to be more strict, you can increase it to 5 or 6.
NOTE:
If the volume information for a ticker is not available, it will return a runtime error indicating as such.
And that's the indicator!
I wanted something similar to COT data for equities and indices, so this was my attempt to bridge that gap.
Hope you enjoy and find it useful! Leave your suggestions below.
Take care everyone!
ETHE Premium SmoothedThis script visualizes the "premium" or "deflection" between the price of Ethereum in a fund (ETHE) and the price of Ethereum itself. It's used to detect when the ETHE fund is trading at a significant premium or discount compared to the actual value of Ethereum it represents.
Components:
Two-Pole Smoothing Function: This function acts as a filter to smoothen data, specifically the calculated deflection. Using a combination of exponential math and trigonometry, the function reduces the noise from the raw deflection data, providing a clearer view of the trend.
ETH Per Share: A constant that represents the amount of Ethereum backing each share of ETHE.
Tickers: The script fetches data for two tickers:
ETHE ticker from OTC markets.
Ethereum's ticker from Coinbase.
Deflection Calculation: This represents the difference between the price of one share of ETHE and its actual value in Ethereum. This percentage gives an idea of how much more or less the ETHE is trading compared to its intrinsic Ethereum value.
Smoothing: The raw deflection data is then passed through the Two-Pole Smoothing function to produce the "smoothed" deflection curve.
Visuals:
A horizontal dashed red line at 0%, indicating the point where ETHE trades exactly at its intrinsic Ethereum value.
A plot of the smoothed deflection, with its color changing based on whether the value is above or below zero (green for above, red for below).
Usage:
Traders can use this script to identify potential buy or sell opportunities. For instance, if ETHE is trading at a significant discount (a negative deflection value), it might be an attractive buying opportunity, assuming the discrepancy will eventually correct itself. Conversely, if ETHE is trading at a significant premium (a positive deflection value), it might indicate a potential overvaluation.
Euclidean Distance Predictive Candles [SS]Finally releasing this, its been in the works for the past 2 weeks and has undergone many iterations.
I am not sure if I am 100% happy with it yet, but I guess its best to release and get feedback to make improvements.
So this is the Euclidean distance predictive candle indicator and what it does is exactly what it sounds like, it uses Euclidean distance to identify similar candles and then plot the candles and range that immediately proceeded like candles.
While this is using a general machine learning/data science approach (Euclidean distance), I do not employ the KNN (Nearest Neighbors) algo into this. The reason being is it simply offered no predictive advantage than isolating for the last case. I tried it, I didn't like it, the results were not improve and, at times, acutally hindered so I ditched it. Perhaps it was my approach but using some other KNN indicators, I just don't really find them all that more advantageous to simply relying on the Law of Large Numbers and collecting more data rather than less data (which we will get into later in this explanation).
So using this indicator:
There is a lot of customizability here. And the reason is, not all settings are going to work the same for all tickers. To help you narrow down your parameters, I have included various backtest results that show you how the model is performing. You see in the AMZN chart above, with the current settings, it is performing optimally, with a cumulative range pass of 99% (meaning that, of all the cases, the indicator accurately predicted the next day high OR low range 99% of the time), and the ability to predict the candle slightly over 52%.
The recommended settings, from me, are as follows:
So these are generally my recommended settings.
Euclidian Tolerance: This will determine the parameters to look for similar candles. In general, the lower the tolerance, the greater the precision. I recommend keeping it between 0.5, for tickers with larger prices (like ES1! futures or NQ1!) or 0.05 for tickers with lower TPs, like SPY or QQQ.
If the ED Tolerance is too extreme that the indicator cannot find identical setups, it will alert you:
But in general, the more precise you can get it, the better.
Anchor Type: You will see the option to anchor by "Predicted Open" or by "Previous Close". I suggest sticking with anchoring by predicted open. All this means is, it is going to anchor your range, candle, high and low targets by the predicted open price. Anchoring by previous close will anchor by the close of yesterday. Both work okay, but in general the results from anchoring to predicted open have higher pass rates and more accurately depict the candle.
Euclidean Distance Measurement Type: You can choose to measure by candle body or from high to low wicks. I haven't played around with measuring from high to low wicks all that much, because candle body tends to do the job. But remember, ED is a neutral measurement. Which means, its not going to distinguish between a red or green candle, just the formation of the candle. Thus, I tend to recommend, pragmatically, not to necessarily rely on the candle being red or green, but one the formation of the candle (where are the wicks going, are there more bearish wicks or bullish wicks) etc. Examples will follow.
Range Prediction Type: You can filter the range prediction type by last instance (in which, it will pull the previous identical candle and plot the next candle that followed it, adjusted for the current ranges) or "Average of All Cases". So this is where we need to talk a little bit about the law of large numbers.
In general, in statistics, when you have a huge amount of random data, the law of large numbers stipulates that, within this randomness should be repeated events. This is why sometimes chart patterns work, sometimes they don't. When we filter by the average of all cases, we are relying on the law of large numbers. In general, if you are getting good Backtest readings from Last Instance, then you don't need to use this function. But it provides an alternative insight into potential candle formations next day. Its not a bad idea to compare between the two and look for similarities and differences.
So now that we have covered the boring details, let's get into how to use the indicator and some examples.
So the indicator is plotting the range and candle for the next day. As such, we are not looking at the current candle being plotted, but we are looking at the previous candle (see image below for example):
The green arrow shows the prediction for Friday, along with the corresponding result. The purple arrow shows the prediction for Monday which we have yet to realize.
So remember when you are using this, you need to look at the previous candle, and not the candle that it is currently plotting with realtime data, because it is plotting for the next candle.
If you are plotting by last instance, the indicator will tell you which day it is pulling its data from if you have opted to toggle on the demographic data:
You can see the green arrow pointing to the date where it is pulling from. This data serves as the example candle with the candle proceeding this date being the anchored candle (or the predicted candle).
Price Targets and Probability:
In the chart, you can see the green arrow pointing to the green portion of the table. In this table, it will give you the current TPs. These represent the current time target price, which means, the TPs shown here are for Friday. On Monday, the table will update with the TPs for Monday, etc. If you want to view the TPs in advance, you can view them from the actual candle itself.
Below the TPs, you see a bullish 7:6. It means, in a total of 13 cases, the next candle was bullish 7 times and bearish 6 times. Where do we see the number of cases? In the demographic table as well:
Auxiliary functions
Because you are using the previous candle, if you want to avoid confusion, you can have the indicator plot the price targets over the predicted candle, to anchor your attention so to speak. Simply select "Label" in the "Show Price Targets" section, which will look like this:
You can also ask the indicator to plot the demographic data of Higher High, Low, etc. information. What this does is simply looks at all the cases and plots how many times higher highs, lows, lower lows, highs etc. were made:
This will just count all of the cases identified and plot the number of times higher highs, lows, etc. were made.
Concluding Remarks
This is a kind of complex indicator and I can appreciate it may take some getting used to.
I will try to post a tutorial video at some point next week for it, so stay tuned for that.
But this isn't designed to make your life more complicated, just to help give you insights into potential outcomes for the next day or hour or 5 minute (it can be used on all timeframes).
If you find it helpful, great! If not, that's okay, too :-).
Please be aware, this is not my forte of indicators. I am not a data scientist or programmer. My background is in Epi and we don't use these types of data science approaches, so if you have any suggestions or critiques, feel free to share them below.
Otherwise, I hope you enjoy!
Take care everyone and safe trades!
Multi-Asset Performance [Spaghetti] - By LeviathanThis indicator visualizes the cumulative percentage changes or returns of 30 symbols over a given period and offers a unique set of tools and data analytics for deeper insight into the performance of different assets.
Multi Asset Performance indicator (also called “Spaghetti”) makes it easy to monitor the changes in Price, Open Interest, and On Balance Volume across multiple assets simultaneously, distinguish assets that are overperforming or underperforming, observe the relative strength of different assets or currencies, use it as a tool for identifying mean reversion opportunities and even for constructing pairs trading strategies, detect "risk-on" or "risk-off" periods, evaluate statistical relationships between assets through metrics like correlation and beta, construct hedging strategies, trade rotations and much more.
Start by selecting a time period (e.g., 1 DAY) to set the interval for when data is reset. This will provide insight into how price, open interest, and on-balance volume change over your chosen period. In the settings, asset selection is fully customizable, allowing you to create three groups of up to 30 tickers each. These tickers can be displayed in a variety of styles and colors. Additional script settings offer a range of options, including smoothing values with a Simple Moving Average (SMA), highlighting the top or bottom performers, plotting the group mean, applying heatmap/gradient coloring, generating a table with calculations like beta, correlation, and RSI, creating a profile to show asset distribution around the mean, and much more.
One of the most important script tools is the screener table, which can display:
🔸 Percentage Change (Represents the return or the percentage increase or decrease in Price/OI/OBV over the current selected period)
🔸 Beta (Represents the sensitivity or responsiveness of asset's returns to the returns of a benchmark/mean. A beta of 1 means the asset moves in tandem with the market. A beta greater than 1 indicates the asset is more volatile than the market, while a beta less than 1 indicates the asset is less volatile. For example, a beta of 1.5 means the asset typically moves 150% as much as the benchmark. If the benchmark goes up 1%, the asset is expected to go up 1.5%, and vice versa.)
🔸 Correlation (Describes the strength and direction of a linear relationship between the asset and the mean. Correlation coefficients range from -1 to +1. A correlation of +1 means that two variables are perfectly positively correlated; as one goes up, the other will go up in exact proportion. A correlation of -1 means they are perfectly negatively correlated; as one goes up, the other will go down in exact proportion. A correlation of 0 means that there is no linear relationship between the variables. For example, a correlation of 0.5 between Asset A and Asset B would suggest that when Asset A moves, Asset B tends to move in the same direction, but not perfectly in tandem.)
🔸 RSI (Measures the speed and change of price movements and is used to identify overbought or oversold conditions of each asset. The RSI ranges from 0 to 100 and is typically used with a time period of 14. Generally, an RSI above 70 indicates that an asset may be overbought, while RSI below 30 signals that an asset may be oversold.)
⚙️ Settings Overview:
◽️ Period
Periodic inputs (e.g. daily, monthly, etc.) determine when the values are reset to zero and begin accumulating again until the period is over. This visualizes the net change in the data over each period. The input "Visible Range" is auto-adjustable as it starts the accumulation at the leftmost bar on your chart, displaying the net change in your chart's visible range. There's also the "Timestamp" option, which allows you to select a specific point in time from where the values are accumulated. The timestamp anchor can be dragged to a desired bar via Tradingview's interactive option. Timestamp is particularly useful when looking for outperformers/underperformers after a market-wide move. The input positioned next to the period selection determines the timeframe on which the data is based. It's best to leave it at default (Chart Timeframe) unless you want to check the higher timeframe structure of the data.
◽️ Data
The first input in this section determines the data that will be displayed. You can choose between Price, OI, and OBV. The second input lets you select which one out of the three asset groups should be displayed. The symbols in the asset group can be modified in the bottom section of the indicator settings.
◽️ Appearance
You can choose to plot the data in the form of lines, circles, areas, and columns. The colors can be selected by choosing one of the six pre-prepared color palettes.
◽️ Labeling
This input allows you to show/hide the labels and select their appearance and size. You can choose between Label (colored pointed label), Label and Line (colored pointed label with a line that connects it to the plot), or Text Label (colored text).
◽️ Smoothing
If selected, this option will smooth the values using a Simple Moving Average (SMA) with a custom length. This is used to reduce noise and improve the visibility of plotted data.
◽️ Highlight
If selected, this option will highlight the top and bottom N (custom number) plots, while shading the others. This makes the symbols with extreme values stand out from the rest.
◽️ Group Mean
This input allows you to select the data that will be considered as the group mean. You can choose between Group Average (the average value of all assets in the group) or First Ticker (the value of the ticker that is positioned first on the group's list). The mean is then used in calculations such as correlation (as the second variable) and beta (as a benchmark). You can also choose to plot the mean by clicking on the checkbox.
◽️ Profile
If selected, the script will generate a vertical volume profile-like display with 10 zones/nodes, visualizing the distribution of assets below and above the mean. This makes it easy to see how many or what percentage of assets are outperforming or underperforming the mean.
◽️ Gradient
If selected, this option will color the plots with a gradient based on the proximity of the value to the upper extreme, zero, and lower extreme.
◽️ Table
This section includes several settings for the table's appearance and the data displayed in it. The "Reference Length" input determines the number of bars back that are used for calculating correlation and beta, while "RSI Length" determines the length used for calculating the Relative Strength Index. You can choose the data that should be displayed in the table by using the checkboxes.
◽️ Asset Groups
This section allows you to modify the symbols that have been selected to be a part of the 3 asset groups. If you want to change a symbol, you can simply click on the field and type the ticker of another one. You can also show/hide a specific asset by using the checkbox next to the field.
Options & Leveraged Shares Heatmap This is the leveraged share/option heatmap / screener.
Tradingview offers a few different tickers that have PTCR data on the daily timeframe. So I was able to pull those few tickers that display the PTCR data and format it into a heatmap.
I also had some room to add leveraged share data as well.
It is pretty self explanatory but I will go over it really briefly:
The timeframe is 1 D. This cannot be changed because this is the only timeframe available for the PTCR data.
It will pull the current day PTCR as well as the previous day PTCR and display the PTCR and change value.
The screening will be done according to the 1 day change.
You have the ability to select the option to sort by Max and Min or sort by heatmap:
Displaying max and min will show you the max positive and negative change among all the available tickers.
Max positive = bearish, as this indicates an uptick in Puts.
Max negative = bullish, as this indicates a decline in Puts.
If we flip over to the leveraged shares, it is the same:
To keep it consistent, the leveraged share ratio is displayed similar to PTCR. It is Sell to Buy ratio. The higher the ratio, the more selling and vice versa.
Thus, the same rules apply. Max positive = bearish and max negative = bullish.
If you want to display the heatmap, this is what it will look like:
The darker the blue, the higher the change in either a negative or positive direction. The same for the leveraged shares:
And that is the indicator.
Hopefully you find it helpful. I like to reference it at the end of each day to see how things are looking in terms of positioning for the following day.
