Swing LevelsThe Swing Levels indicator automatically detects and plots recent swing highs and lows on the chart, turning them into dynamic support and resistance levels.
Each new swing point creates a horizontal line that extends forward in time until price “fills” (touches or breaks) that level. Once a level is filled, it can either disappear or remain visible — depending on your settings.
You can enable alerts to be notified whenever price fills a swing high (breaks resistance) or a swing low (breaks support).
A lookback filter allows limiting how far back in history swing levels are drawn, helping keep the chart clean and efficient.
Main benefits:
• Automatically tracks key market structure turning points
• Helps visualize support and resistance zones in real time
• Optional alerts for breakout confirmations
• Fully customizable colors, line styles, and management behavior
• Works on any timeframe or market
In short:
Swing Levels gives you a clear and automated view of where price has recently reversed — powerful zones where liquidity and reactions often occur again.

• High/Low/50% midpoint tracking for each session
• Visual session boxes showing calculation periods
• Horizontal lines projecting levels into the future
• Historical session levels remain visible for reference
• Works on any chart timeframe (M1, M5, M15, H1, H4, etc.)
• Full visual customization (colors, line styles, widths)
• DST timezone support
Common Use Cases:
H4 Candle Tracking - Set sessions to 4-hour blocks (e.g., 6-10am, 10am-2pm) to track individual H4 highs/lows
H1 Candle Tracking - 1-hour blocks for scalping reference levels
Session Trading - ETH vs RTH, London vs NY, Asian session, etc.
Custom Time Periods - Any time range you want to monitor
How to Use:
The indicator identifies key price levels from higher timeframe periods. Use previous session H/L/50% as reference levels for:
Identifying sweep and reclaim setups
Lower timeframe structural flip confirmations
Support/resistance zones for entries
Delivery targets after breaks of structure
Settings:
Configure each session's start/end times independently. The indicator automatically triggers at the first bar crossing into your specified time, making it compatible with all chart timeframes.
💻 RSI Dual-Band Reversal Strategy (Hacker Mode)This 💻 RSI Dual-Band Reversal Strategy (Hacker Mode) is a mean-reversion trading strategy built on the Relative Strength Index (RSI) indicator.
It identifies potential trend reversals when price momentum reaches extreme overbought or oversold levels — then enters trades expecting the price to revert.
⚙️ Strategy Concept
The RSI measures market momentum on a scale of 0–100.
When RSI is too low, it signals an oversold market → potential buy.
When RSI is too high, it signals an overbought market → potential sell.
This strategy sets two reversal zones using dual RSI bands:
Zone RSI Range Meaning Action
Upper Band 80–90 Overbought Prepare to Sell
Lower Band 10–20 Oversold Prepare to Buy
🧩 Code Breakdown
1. Input Parameters
rsiLength = input.int(14)
upperBandHigh = input.float(90.0)
upperBandLow = input.float(80.0)
lowerBandLow = input.float(10.0)
lowerBandHigh = input.float(20.0)
You can adjust:
RSI Length (default 14) → sensitivity of the RSI.
Upper/Lower Bands → control when buy/sell triggers occur.
2. RSI Calculation
rsi = ta.rsi(close, rsiLength)
Calculates the RSI of the closing price over 14 periods.
3. Signal Logic
buySignal = ta.crossover(rsi, lowerBandHigh)
sellSignal = ta.crossunder(rsi, upperBandLow)
Buy Signal: RSI crosses up through 20 → market rebounding from oversold.
Sell Signal: RSI crosses down through 80 → market turning from overbought.
4. Plotting
RSI line (lime green)
Bands:
🔴 80–90 (Sell Zone)
🟢 10–20 (Buy Zone)
Gray midline at 50 for reference.
Triangle markers for signals:
🟢 “BUY” below chart
🔴 “SELL” above chart
5. Trading Logic
if (buySignal)
strategy.entry("Buy", strategy.long)
if (sellSignal)
strategy.entry("Sell", CRYPTO:BTCUSD strategy.short OANDA:XAUUSD )
Opens a long position on a buy signal.
Opens a short position on a sell signal.
No explicit stop loss or take profit — positions reverse when an opposite signal appears.
🧠 How It Works (Step-by-Step Example)
RSI drops below 20 → oversold → buy signal triggers.
RSI rises toward 80 → overbought → sell signal triggers.
Strategy flips position, always staying in the market (either long or short).
📈 Visual Summary
Imagine the RSI line oscillating between 0 and 100:
100 ────────────────────────────────
90 ───── Upper Band High (Sell Limit)
80 ───── Upper Band Low (Sell Trigger)
50 ───── Midline
20 ───── Lower Band High (Buy Trigger)
10 ───── Lower Band Low (Buy Limit)
0 ────────────────────────────────
When RSI moves above 80 → SELL
When RSI moves below 20 → BUY
⚡ Strategy Profile
Category Description
Type Mean Reversion
Entry Rule RSI crosses up 20 → Buy
Exit/Reverse Rule RSI crosses down 80 → Sell
Strengths Simple, effective in sideways/range markets, minimal lag
Weaknesses Weak in strong trends, no stop-loss or take-profit logic
💡 Suggested Improvements
You can enhance this script by adding:
Stop loss & take profit levels (e.g., % or ATR-based).
Trend filter (e.g., trade only in direction of 200 EMA).
RSI smoothing to reduce noise.

Fixed High Timeframe Moving AveragesFixed High Timeframe Moving Averages (W/D/4H)
Summary
This indicator plots essential, high-timeframe (HTF) Moving Averages onto your chart, **no matter which timeframe you are currently viewing**.
It is designed for traders who need multi-timeframe context at a glance. Stop switching charts to see where the 200-Week or 50-Day MA is—now you can see all critical HTF levels directly on your 5-minute (or any other) chart.
---
Who it’s for
Traders who rely on moving averages but like to work on lower chart timeframes while keeping higher timeframe context in sight. If you scalp on 1–15m yet want Weekly/Daily/4H MAs always visible, this is for you.
---
What it shows
Pinned (“fixed”) moving averages from higher timeframes—Weekly (20/100/200) , Daily (50/100/200/365) and 4H (200) —rendered on any chart timeframe. Your favorite HTF MAs stay on screen no matter what TF you’re currently analyzing.
---
Features
* **MA types:** SMA, EMA, VWMA, Hull.
* **Fully configurable:** toggle each line, set periods, colors, and thickness.
* **Two alert modes (see below):** intrabar vs confirmed HTF close.
* **Works on any symbol & chart TF** using `request.security` to fetch HTF data.
---
Alerts & Modes
This indicator solves the biggest problem with MTF alerts: false signals. You can choose one of two modes:
1. **Intrabar mode** — compares current chart price to the HTF MA. Triggers as soon as price crosses the HTF line; great for early signals but may update until the HTF bar closes.
2. **Confirmed mode** — checks HTF close vs HTF MA. Signals only on the higher-TF bar close; fewer false starts, no intrabar repainting on that TF.
Per-line *Cross Above / Cross Below* conditions are provided for all enabled MAs (e.g., “20W — Cross Above”, “365D — Cross Below”, etc.).
**How to use alerts:** add the script → “Create Alert” → pick any condition from the script’s list.
---
Why this helps
* Keeps Weekly/Daily structure visible while you execute on LTF.
* Classic anchors (e.g., 200D, 20W/100W/200W) are popular for trend bias, dynamic support/resistance, and pullback context.
* Lets you standardize MA references across all your lower-TF playbooks.
---
Notes on confirmation & repainting
* Intrabar signals can change until the higher-TF bar closes (that’s expected with multi-TF data).
* Confirmed mode waits for the HTF close—cleaner, but later. Choose what fits your workflow.
---
Quick setup
1. Pick `MA Type` (SMA/EMA/VWMA/Hull).
2. Enable the HTF lines you want (Weekly 20/100/200; Daily 50/100/200/365; 4H 200).
3. Choose `Alert Mode` (Intrabar vs Confirmed).
4. Style colors/widths to taste and set alerts on the lines you care about.
---
Good practice
* Combine HTF MAs with price action (swings, structure, liquidity grabs) rather than using them in isolation.
* Always validate signals in your execution TF and use a risk plan tailored to volatility.
* Protect your capital: position sizing, stops, and disciplined risk management matter more than any single line on the chart.

Happy Scalping! 📊⚡💰
Automated Z-scoring - [JTCAPITAL]Automated Z-Scoring - is a modified way to use statistical normalization through Z-Scores for analyzing price deviations, volatility extremes, and mean reversion opportunities in financial markets.
The indicator works by calculating in the following steps:
Source Selection
The indicator begins by selecting a user-defined price source (default is the Close price). Traders can modify this to use any indicator that is deployed on the chart, for accurate and fast Z-scoring.
Mean Calculation
A Simple Moving Average (SMA) is calculated over the selected length period (default 3000). This represents the long-term equilibrium price level or the “statistical mean” of the dataset. It provides the baseline around which all price deviations are measured.
Standard Deviation Measurement
The script computes the Standard Deviation of the price series over the same period. This value quantifies how far current prices tend to stray from the mean — effectively measuring market volatility. The larger the standard deviation, the more volatile the market environment.
Z-Score Normalization
The Z-Score is calculated as:
(Current Price − Mean) ÷ Standard Deviation .
This normalization expresses how many standard deviations the current price is away from its long-term average. A Z-Score above 0 means the price is above average, while a negative score indicates it is below average.
Visual Representation
The Z-Score is plotted dynamically, with color-coding for clarity:
Bullish readings (Z > 0) are showing positive deviation from the mean.
Bearish readings (Z < 0) are showing negative deviation from the mean.
Make sure to select the correct source for what you exactly want to Z-score.
Buy and Sell Conditions:
While the indicator itself is designed as a statistical framework rather than a direct buy/sell signal generator, traders can derive actionable strategies from its behavior:
Trend Following: When the Z-Score crosses above zero after a prolonged negative period, it suggests a return to or above the mean — a possible bullish reversal or trend continuation signal.
Mean Reversion: When the Z-score is below for example -1.5 it indicates a good time for a DCA buying opportunity.
Trend Following: When the Z-Score crosses below zero after being positive, it may indicate a momentum slowdown or bearish shift.
Mean Reversion: When the Z-score is above for example 1.5 it indicates a good time for a DCA sell opportunity
Features and Parameters:
Length – Defines the period for both SMA and Standard Deviation. A longer length smooths the Z-Score and captures broader market context, while a shorter length increases responsiveness.
Source – Allows the user to choose which price data is analyzed (Close, Open, High, Low, etc.).
Fill Visualization – Highlights the magnitude of deviation between the Z-Score and the zero baseline, enhancing readability of volatility extremes.
Specifications:
Mean (Simple Moving Average)
The SMA calculates the average of the selected source over the defined length. It provides a central value to which the price tends to revert. In this indicator, the mean acts as the equilibrium point — the “zero” reference for all deviations.
Standard Deviation
Standard Deviation measures the dispersion of data points from their mean. In trading, it quantifies volatility. A high standard deviation indicates that prices are spread out (volatile), while a low value means they are clustered near the average (stable). The indicator uses this to scale deviations consistently across different market conditions.
Z-Score
The Z-Score converts raw price data into a standardized value measured in units of standard deviation.
A Z-Score of 0 = Price equals its mean.
A Z-Score of +1 = Price is one standard deviation above the mean.
A Z-Score of −1 = Price is one standard deviation below the mean.
This allows comparison of deviation magnitudes across instruments or timeframes, independent of price level.
Length Parameter
A long lookback period (e.g., 3000 bars) smooths temporary volatility and reveals long-term mean deviations — ideal for macro trend identification. Shorter lengths (e.g., 100–500) capture quicker oscillations and are useful for short-term mean reversion trades.
Statistical Interpretation
From a probabilistic perspective, if the distribution of prices is roughly normal:
About 68% of price observations lie within ±1 standard deviation (Z between −1 and +1).
About 95% lie within ±2 standard deviations.
Therefore, when the Z-Score moves beyond ±2, it statistically represents a rare event — often corresponding to price extremes or potential reversal zones.
Practical Benefit of Z-Scoring in Trading
Z-Scoring transforms raw price into a normalized volatility-adjusted metric. This allows traders to:
Compare instruments on a common statistical scale.
Identify mean-reversion setups more objectively.
Spot volatility expansions or contractions early.
Detect when price action significantly diverges from long-term equilibrium.
By automating this process, Automated Z-Scoring - provides traders with a powerful analytical lens to measure how “stretched” the market truly is — turning abstract statistics into a visually intuitive and actionable form.
Enjoy!
Trend Pullback System```{"variant":"standard","id":"36492","title":"Trend Pullback System Description"}
Trend Pullback System is a price-action trend continuation model that looks to enter on pullbacks, not breakouts. It’s designed to find high-quality long/short entries inside an already established trend, place the stop at meaningful structure, trail that stop as structure evolves, and warn you when the trade thesis is no longer valid.
Developed by: Mohammed Bedaiwi
---------------------------------
HOW IT WORKS
---------------------------------
1. Trend Detection
• The strategy defines overall bias using moving averages.
• Bullish environment (“uptrend”): price above the slower MA, fast MA above slow MA, and the slow MA is sloping up.
• Bearish environment (“downtrend”): price below the slower MA, fast MA below slow MA, and the slow MA is sloping down.
This prevents trading against chop and focuses on continuation moves in the dominant direction.
2. Pullback + Re-entry Logic
• The script waits for price to pull back into structure (support in an uptrend, resistance in a downtrend), and then push back in the direction of the main trend.
• That “push back” is the setup trigger. We don’t chase the first breakout candle — we buy/sell the retest + resume.
3. Structural Levels (“Diamonds”)
• Green diamond (below bar): bullish pivot low formed while the trend is bullish. This marks defended support.
- Use it as a re-entry zone for longs.
- Use it to trail a stop higher when you’re already long.
- Shorts can take profit here because buyers stepped in.
• Red diamond (above bar): bearish pivot high formed while the trend is bearish. This marks defended resistance.
- Use it as a re-entry zone for shorts.
- Use it to trail a stop lower when you’re already short.
- Longs can take profit here because sellers stepped in.
4. Entry Signals
• BUY arrow (green triangle up under the candle, text like “BUY” / “BUY Zone”):
- LongSetup is true.
- Trend is bullish or turning bullish.
- Price just bounced off recent defended support (green diamond) and reclaimed short-term momentum.
Meaning: enter long here or cover/exit shorts.
• SELL arrow (red triangle down above the candle):
- ShortSetup is true.
- Trend is bearish or turning bearish.
- Price just rolled down from defended resistance (red diamond) and lost short-term momentum.
Meaning: enter short here or take profit on longs.
These are the primary trade entries. They are meant to be actionable.
5. Weak Setups (“W” in yellow)
• Yellow triangle with “W”:
- A possible long/short idea is trying to form, BUT the higher-timeframe confirmation is not fully there yet.
- Think of it as early pressure / early caution, not a full signal.
• You usually watch these areas rather than jumping in immediately.
6. Exit Warning (orange “EXIT” label above a bar)
• The strategy will raise an EXIT marker when you’re in a trade and the *opposite* side just produced a confirmed setup.
- You’re short and a valid longSetup appears → EXIT.
- You’re long and a valid shortSetup appears → EXIT.
• This is basically: “Close or reduce — the other side just took control.”
• It’s not just a trailing stop hit; it’s a regime flip warning.
7. Stop, Target, and Trailing
• On every new setup, the script records:
- Initial stop: recent swing beyond the defended level (below support for longs, above resistance for shorts).
- Initial target: recent opposing swing.
• While you’re in position, if new confirming diamonds print in your favor, the stop can trail toward the new defended level.
• This creates structure-based risk management (not just fixed % or ATR).
8. Reference Levels
• The strategy also plots prior higher-timeframe closes (last week’s close, last month’s close, last year’s close). These can behave as magnets or stall points.
• They’re helpful for take-profit timing and for reading “are we trading above or below last month’s close?”
9. Momentum Panel (hidden by default)
• Internally, the script calculates an SMI-style momentum oscillator with overbought/oversold zones.
• This is optional visual confirmation and does not drive the core entry/exit logic.
---------------------------------
WHAT A TRADE LOOKS LIKE IN REAL PRICE ACTION
---------------------------------
Early warning
• Yellow W + red diamonds + red down arrows = “This is getting weak. Short setups are here.”
• You may also see something like “My Short Entry Id.” That’s where the short side actually engages.
Bearish follow-through, then exhaustion
• Price bleeds down.
• Then the orange EXIT appears.
→ Translation: “If you’re still short, close it. Buyers are stepping in hard. Risk of reversal is now high.”
Regime flip
• Right after EXIT, multiple green BUY arrows fire together (“BUY”, “BUYZone”).
• That’s the true long trigger.
→ This is where you either enter long or flip from short to long.
Expansion leg
• After that flip, price rips up for multiple candles / days / weeks.
• While it runs:
- Green diamonds appear under pullbacks → “dip buy zones / trail stop up here.”
- More BUY arrows show on minor pullbacks → continuation long / scale adds.
Distribution / topping
• Later, you start seeing new yellow W triangles again near local highs. That’s your “careful, this might be topping” warning.
• You finally get a hard red candle, and green diamonds stop stacking.
→ That’s where you tighten risk, scale out, or assume the move is mature.
In plain terms, the model is doing the following for you:
• It puts you short during weakness.
• It tells you when to get OUT of the short.
• It flips you long right as control changes.
• It gives you a structure-based trail the whole way up.
• It warns you again when momentum at the top starts cracking.
That is exactly how the logic was designed.
---------------------------------
QUICK INTERPRETATION CHEAT SHEET
---------------------------------
🔻 Red triangle + “Short Entry” near a red diamond
→ Short entry zone (or take profit on a long).
🟥 Red diamond above bar
→ Sellers defended here. Treat it as resistance. Good place to trail short stops just above that level. Avoid chasing longs straight into it.
🟨 Yellow W
→ Attention only. Early pressure / possible turn. Not fully confirmed.
🟧 EXIT (orange label)
→ The opposite side just printed a real setup. Close the old idea (cover shorts if you’re short, exit longs if you’re long). Thesis invalid.
🟩 Burst of green BUY triangles after EXIT
→ Long entry. Also a “cover shorts now” alert. This is the core money entry in bullish reversals.
💎 Green diamond below bar
→ Bulls defended that level. Good for trailing your long stop up, and good “buy the dip in trend” locations.
📈 Blue / teal MAs stacked and rising
→ Confirmed bullish structure. You’re in trend continuation mode, so dips are opportunities, not automatic exits.
---------------------------------
COLOR / SHAPE KEY
---------------------------------
• Green triangle up (“BUY”, “BUY Zone”):
Long entry / cover shorts / continuation long trigger.
• Red triangle down:
Short entry / take profit on longs / continuation short trigger.
• Orange “EXIT” label:
Opposite side just fired a real setup. The previous trade thesis is now invalid.
• Green diamond below price:
Bullish defended support in an uptrend. Use for dip buys, trailing stops on longs, and objective cover zones for shorts.
• Red diamond above price:
Bearish defended resistance in a downtrend. Use for re-entry shorts, trailing stops on shorts, and objective scale-out zones for longs.
• Yellow “W”:
Weak / early potential setup. Watch it, don’t blindly trust it.
• Moving average bands (fast MA, slow MA, Hull MA):
When stacked and rising, bullish control. When stacked and falling, bearish control.
---------------------------------
INTENT
---------------------------------
This system is built to:
• Trade with momentum, not against it.
• Enter on pullbacks into proven structure, not chase stretched breakouts.
• Automate stop/target logic around actual defended swing levels.
• Warn you when the other side takes over so you don’t give back gains.
Typical usage:
1. In an uptrend, wait for price to pull back, print a green diamond (support proved), then take the first BUY arrow that fires.
2. In a downtrend, wait for a bounce into resistance, print a red diamond (sellers proved), then take the first SELL arrow that fires.
3. Respect EXIT when it appears — that’s the model saying “this trade is done.”

NFCI National Financial Conditions IndexChicago Fed National Financial Conditions Index (NFCI)
This indicator plots the Chicago Fed’s National Financial Conditions Index (NFCI).
The NFCI updates weekly, and its latest value is displayed across all chart intervals.
The NFCI measures how tight or loose overall U.S. financial conditions are. It combines over 100 weekly indicators from the money, bond, and equity markets—along with credit and leverage data—into a single composite index.
The NFCI has three key subcomponents, each of which can be independently selected within the indicator:
Risk: Captures volatility, credit spreads, and overall market stress.
Credit: Tracks how easy or difficult it is to borrow across households and businesses.
Leverage: Reflects the level of debt and balance-sheet strength in the financial system.
When the NFCI rises, financial conditions are tightening — liquidity is contracting, borrowing costs are climbing, and investors tend to reduce risk.
When the NFCI falls, conditions are loosening — liquidity expands, credit flows more freely, and markets generally become more risk-seeking.
Traders often use the NFCI as a macro backdrop for risk appetite: rising values signal growing stress and defensive positioning, while falling values indicate improving liquidity and a more supportive market environment.
(FTD) Follow-Through Day SignalFollow-Through Day (FTD) Signal
This indicator detects potential Follow-Through Days (FTDs) — a concept popularized by William O’Neil — to help identify possible market trend confirmations.
A Follow-Through Day occurs when an index shows strong upside action on higher volume several days after a market low, suggesting institutional buying rather than short covering.
How it works:
The indicator checks for a session where the price gains a defined minimum percentage from the prior close (default: 1.2% or more).
Volume must be greater than the previous day’s volume.
The rally must occur at least three days after a recent low, determined by the lookback period (default: 20 days).
Additional safeguards require that recent bars are not making new lows and that the bar three days prior either closed positive or was not at a new low — filtering out false signals from oversold bounces.
When all conditions are met, a blue up arrow is plotted beneath the bar, and an optional “FTD” label appears if enabled.
Inputs:
Min % Gain from Previous Close (%): Sets the minimum daily percentage gain to qualify as a Follow-Through Day.
Lookback Period for Lowest Low Checks: Defines how many bars back to search for a recent market low (default: 20).
Show Signal Label: Toggles the on-chart “FTD” label display.
Usage:
This indicator is intended for use on daily charts of major market indexes — such as the Nasdaq Composite (symbol: IXIC) or broad index ETFs including QQQ, SPY, and DIA — where Follow-Through Day signals are most relevant for confirming potential trend reversals.
Session Streaks [LuxAlgo]The Session Streaks tool allows traders to identify whether a session is bullish or bearish on the chart. It also shows the current session streak, or the number of consecutive bullish or bearish sessions.
The tool features a dashboard with information about the session streaks of the underlying product on the chart.
🔶 USAGE
Analyzing session streaks is commonly used for market timing by studying the number of consecutive sessions over time and how long they last before the market changes direction.
We identify a bullish session as one in which the closing price is equal to or greater than the opening price, and a bearish session as one in which the closing price is below the opening price.
Each session is labeled according to its bias (bullish or bearish) and the number of consecutive sessions of the same type that conform the current streak.
🔹 Dashboard
The dashboard at the top shows information about the current session.
Under the "Streaks" header, historical information about session streaks is displayed, divided into bullish and bearish categories.
Number: Total number of streaks.
Median: The average duration of those streaks. We chose the median over the mean to avoid misrepresentation due to outliers.
Mode: The most common streak duration.
As the image shows, for this particular market, there are more bullish streaks than bearish ones. Bullish streaks have an average duration that is longer than that of bearish streaks, and both have the same most common streak duration.
If the current session is bullish and the median streak duration for bullish sessions is three, then we could consider scenarios in which the next two sessions are bullish.
🔶 DETAILS
🔹 Streaks On Larger Timeframes
On timeframes lower than or equal to Daily, the tool identifies each consecutive session, but this behavior changes on larger timeframes.
On timeframes larger than daily, the tool identifies the last session of each bar. Let's use the chart in the image as a reference.
At the top of the image, there is a daily chart where each session corresponds to each candle. One candle equals one day.
In the middle, we have a weekly chart where each session is the last session of each week, which is usually Friday for the Nasdaq 100 futures contract. The levels and labels displayed correspond to the last session within each candle, which is the last day of each week.
The levels and labels on the monthly chart correspond to the last session of each month, which is the last day of each month.
🔹 Gradient Style
Traders can choose between two different color gradients for the session background. Each gradient provides different information about price behavior within each session.
Horizontal: Green indicates prices at the top of the session range and red indicates prices at the bottom.
Vertical: Green indicates prices that are equal to or greater than the open price and red indicates prices that are below the open price of the session.
🔶 SETTINGS
🔹 Dashboard

Position: Select the location of the dashboard.
Size: Select the dashboard size.
🔹 Style
Bullish: Select a color for bullish sessions.
Bearish: Select a color for bearish sessions.
Transparency: Select a transparency level from 100 to 0.

SuperTrend Cyan — Split ST & Triple Bands (A/B/C)SuperTrend Cyan — Split ST & Triple Bands (A/B/C)
✨ Concept:
The SuperTrend Cyan indicator expands the classical SuperTrend logic into a split-line + triple-band visualization for clearer structure and volatility mapping.
Instead of a single ATR-based line, this tool separates SuperTrend direction from volatility envelopes (A/B/C), providing a layered view of both regime and range compression.
✨ The design goal:
Preserve the simplicity of SuperTrend
Add volatility context via multi-band envelopes
Provide a compact MTF (Multi-Timeframe) summary for broader trend alignment
✨ How It Works
1. SuperTrend Core (Active & Opposite Lines)
Uses ATR-based bands (Factor × ATR-Length).
Active SuperTrend is plotted according to current regime.
Opposite SuperTrend (optional) shows potential reversal threshold.
2. Triple Band System (A/B/C)
Each band (A, B, C) scales from the median price (hl2) by different ATR multipliers.
A: Outer band (wider, long-range context)
B: Inner band (mid-range activity)
C: Core band (closest to price, short-term compression)
Smoothness can be controlled with EMA.
Uptrend fills are lime-toned, downtrend fills are red-toned, with adjustable opacity (gap intensity).
3. Automatic Directional Switch
When the regime flips from up → down (or vice versa), the overlay automatically switches between lower and upper bands for a clean transition.
4. Multi-Timeframe SuperTrend Table
Displays SuperTrend direction across 5m, 15m, 1h, 4h, and 1D frames.
Green ▲ = Uptrend, Red ▼ = Downtrend.
Useful for checking cross-timeframe trend alignment.
✨ How to Read It
Green SuperTrend + Lime Bands
- Uptrend regime; volatility expanding upward
Red SuperTrend + Red Bands
- Downtrend regime; volatility expanding downward
Narrow gaps (A–C)
- Low volatility / compression (potential squeeze)
Wide gaps
- High volatility / active trend phase
Opposite ST line close to price
- Early warning for regime transition
✨ Practical Use
Identify trend direction (SuperTrend color & line position).
Assess volatility conditions (band width and gap transparency).
Watch for MTF alignment: consistent up/down signals across 1h–4h–1D = strong structural trend.
Combine with momentum indicators (e.g., RSI, DFI, PCI) for confirmation of trend maturity or exhaustion.
✨ Customization Tips
ST Factor / ATR Length
- Adjust sensitivity of SuperTrend direction changes
Band ATR Length
- Controls overall smoothness of volatility envelopes
Band Multipliers (A/B/C)
- Define how wide each volatility band extends
Gap Opacity
- Affects visual contrast between layers
MTF Table
- Enable/disable multi-timeframe display
✨ Educational Value
This script visualizes the interaction between trend direction (SuperTrend) and volatility envelopes, helping traders understand how price reacts within layered ATR zones.
It also introduces a clean MTF (multi-timeframe) perspective — ideal for discretionary and system traders alike.

Cumulative Delta Volume MTFCumulative Delta Volume MTF (CDV_MTF)
Within volume analytics, “delta (buy − sell)” often acts as a leading indicator for price.
This indicator is a cumulative delta tailored for day trading.
It differs from conventional cumulative delta in two key ways:
Daily Reset
If heavy buying hits into the prior day’s close, a standard cumulative delta “carries” that momentum into the next day’s open. You can then misread direction—selling may actually be dominant, but yesterday’s residue still pushes the delta positive. With Daily Reset, accumulation uses only the current day’s delta, giving you a more reliable, open-to-close read for intraday decision-making.
Timeframe Selection (MTF)
You might chart 30s/15s candles to capture micro structure, while wanting the cumulative delta on 5-minute to judge the broader flow. With Timeframe (MTF), you can view a lower-timeframe chart and a higher-timeframe delta in one pane.
Overview
MTF aggregation: choose the delta’s computation timeframe via Timeframe (empty = chart) (empty = chart timeframe).
Daily Reset: toggle on/off to accumulate strictly within the current session/day.
Display: Candle or Line (Candle supports Heikin Ashi), with Bull/Bear background shading.
Overlays: up to two SMA and two EMA lines.
Panel: plotted in a sub-window (overlay=false).
Example Use Cases
At the open: turn Daily Reset = ON to see the pure, same-day buy/sell build-up.
Entry on lower TF, bias from higher TF: chart at 30s, set Timeframe = 5 to reduce noise and false signals.
Quick read of momentum: Candle + HA + background shading for intuitive direction; confirm with SMA/EMA slope or crosses.
Key Parameters
Timeframe (empty = chart): timeframe used to compute cumulative delta.
Enable Daily Reset: resets accumulation when the trading day changes.
Style: Candle / Line; Heikin Ashi toggle for Candle mode.
SMA/EMA 1 & 2: individual length and color settings.
Background: customize Bull and Bear background colors.
How to Read
Distance from zero: positive build = buy-side dominance; negative = sell-side dominance.
Slope × MAs: use CDV slope and MA direction/crossovers for momentum and potential turns.
Reset vs. non-reset:
ON → isolates intraday net flow.
OFF → tracks multi-day accumulation/dispersion.
Notes & Caveats
The delta here is a heuristic derived from candle body/wick proportions—it is not true bid/ask tape.
MTF updates are based on the selected timeframe’s bar closes; values can fluctuate intrabar.
Date logic follows the symbol’s exchange timezone.
Renders in a separate pane.
Suggested Defaults
Timeframe = 5 (or 15) / Daily Reset = ON
Style = Candle + Heikin Ashi = ON
EMA(50/200) to frame trend context
For the first decisions after the open—and for scalps/day trades throughout the session—MTF × Daily Reset helps you lock onto the flow that actually matters, right now.
==========================
Cumulative Delta Volume MTF（CDV_MTF）
出来高の中でも“デルタ（買い−売り）”は株価の先行指標になりやすい。
本インジケーターはデイトレードに特化した累積デルタです。
通常の累積デルタと異なるポイントは2つ。
デイリーリセット機能
前日の大引けで大きな買いが入ると、通常の累積デルタはその勢いを翌日の寄りにも“持ち越し”ます。実際は売り圧が強いのに、前日の残渣に引っ張られて方向を誤ることがある。デイリーリセットを使えば当日分だけで累積するため、寄り直後からの判断基準として信頼度が上がります。
タイムフレーム指定（MTF）機能
たとえばチャートは30秒足/15秒足で細部の動きを追い、累積デルタは5分足で“大きな流れ”を確認したい──そんなニーズに対応。**一画面で“下位足の値動き × 上位足のフロー”**を同時に把握できます。
概要
MTF対応：Timeframe で集計足を指定（空欄＝チャート足）
デイリーリセット：当日分のみで累積（オン/オフ切替）
表示：Candle/Line（CandleはHA切替可）、背景をBull/Bearで自動塗り分け
補助線：SMA/EMA（各2本）を重ね描き
表示先：サブウィンドウ（overlay=false）
使い方の例
寄りのフロー判定：デイリーリセット＝オンで、寄り直後の純粋な買い/売りの積み上がりを確認
下位足のエントリー × 上位足のバイアス：チャート＝30秒、Timeframe=5分で騙しを減らす
勢いの視認：Candle＋HA＋背景色で直感的に上げ下げを把握、SMA/EMAの傾きで補強
主なパラメータ
Timeframe (empty = chart)：累積に使う時間足
デイリーリセットを有効にする：日付切替で累積をリセット
Style：Candle / Line、Heikin Ashi切替
SMA/EMA 1・2：期間・色を個別設定
背景色：Bull背景 / Bear背景 を任意のトーンに
読み取りのコツ
ゼロからの乖離：＋側へ積み上がるほど買い優位、−側は売り優位
傾き×MA：CDVの傾きと移動平均の方向/クロスで転換やモメンタムを推測
日内/日跨ぎの切替：デイリーリセット＝オンで日内の純流入出、オフで期間全体の偏り
仕様・注意
本デルタはローソクのボディ/ヒゲ比率から近似したヒューリスティックで、実際のBid/Ask集計とは異なります。
MTFは指定足の確定ベースで更新されます。
日付判定はシンボルの取引所タイムゾーン準拠。
推奨初期セット
Timeframe=5（または15）／デイリーリセット=有効
Style=Candle＋HA=有効
EMA(50/200)で流れの比較
寄りの一手、そしてスキャル/デイの判断材料に。MTF×デイリーリセットで、“効いているフロー”を最短距離で捉えます。
MTF 20 SMA Table - DXY**MTF 20 SMA Table - Multi-Timeframe Trend Analysis Dashboard**
**Overview:**
This indicator provides a comprehensive multi-timeframe analysis dashboard that displays the relationship between price and the 20-period Simple Moving Average (SMA) across four key timeframes: 15-minute, 1-hour, 4-hour, and Daily. It's designed to help traders quickly identify trend alignment and potential trading opportunities across multiple timeframes at a glance. It's definitely not perfect but has helped me speed up my backtesting efforts as it's worked well for me eliminating flipping back and forth between timeframes excpet when I have confluence on the table, then I check the HTF.
**How It Works:**
The indicator creates a table overlay on your chart showing three critical metrics for each timeframe:
1. **Price vs SMA (Row 1):** Shows whether price is currently above (bullish) or below (bearish) the 20 SMA
- Green = Price Above SMA
- Red = Price Below SMA
2. **SMA Direction (Row 2):** Indicates the trend direction of the SMA itself over a lookback period
- Green (↗ Rising) = Uptrend
- Red (↘ Falling) = Downtrend
- Gray (→ Flat) = Ranging/Consolidation
3. **Strength (Row 3):** Displays the distance between current price and the SMA in pips
- Purple background = Strong move (>50 pips away)
- Orange background = Moderate move (20-50 pips)
- Gray background = Weak/consolidating (<20 pips)
- Text color: Green for positive distance, Red for negative
**Key Features:**
- **Customizable Table Position:** Place the table anywhere on your chart (9 position options)
- **Adjustable SMA Lengths:** Modify the SMA period for each timeframe independently (default: 20)
- **Direction Lookback Settings:** Fine-tune how far back the indicator looks to determine SMA direction for each timeframe
- **Flat Threshold:** Set the pip threshold for determining when an SMA is "flat" vs trending (default: 5 pips)
- **DXY Optimized:** Calculations are calibrated for the US Dollar Index (1 pip = 0.01)
**Best Use Cases:**
1. **Trend Alignment:** Identify when multiple timeframes align in the same direction for higher probability trades
2. **Divergence Spotting:** Detect when lower timeframes diverge from higher timeframes (potential reversals)
3. **Entry Timing:** Use lower timeframe signals while higher timeframes confirm overall trend
4. **Strength Assessment:** Gauge how extended price is from the mean (SMA) to avoid overextended entries
**Settings Guide:**
- **SMA Settings Group:** Adjust the SMA period for each timeframe (15M, 1H, 4H, Daily)
- **SMA Direction Group:** Control lookback periods to determine trend direction
- 15M: Default 5 candles
- 1H: Default 10 candles
- 4H: Default 15 candles
- Daily: Default 20 candles
- **Flat Threshold:** Set sensitivity for "flat" detection (lower = more sensitive to ranging markets)
**Trading Strategy Examples:**
1. **Trend Following:** Look for all timeframes showing the same direction (all green or all red)
2. **Pullback Trading:** When Daily/4H are green but 15M/1H show red, wait for lower timeframes to flip green for entry
3. **Ranging Markets:** When multiple SMAs show "flat", consider range-bound strategies
**Important Notes:**
- This is a reference tool only, not a standalone trading system
- Always use proper risk management and combine with other analysis methods
- Best suited for trending instruments like indices and major forex pairs
- Calculations are optimized for DXY but can be used on other instruments (pip calculations may need adjustment)
**Credits:**
Feel free to modify and improve this code! Suggestions for enhancements are welcome in the comments.

**Installation Instructions:**
1. Add the indicator to your TradingView chart
2. Adjust the table position via settings to avoid overlap with price action
3. Customize SMA lengths and lookback periods to match your trading style
4. Monitor the table for timeframe alignment and trend confirmation

Z-Score Bands + SignalsZ-Score Statistical Market Analyzer
A multi-dimensional market structure indicator based on standardized deviation & regime logic
English Description
Concept
This indicator builds a statistical model of price behaviour by converting every candle’s movement into a Z-score — how many standard deviations each close is away from its moving average.
It visualizes the normal distribution structure of returns and provides adaptive entry signals for both Mean Reversion and Breakout regimes.
Rather than predicting price direction, it measures statistical displacement from equilibrium and dynamically adjusts the decision logic according to the market’s volatility regime.
⚙️ Main Components
Z-Score Bands (±1σ, ±2σ, ±3σ)
– The core structure visualizes volatility boundaries based on rolling mean and standard deviation.
– Price outside ±2σ often indicates statistical extremes.
Dual Signal Systems
Mean Reversion (MRL / MRS): when price (or return z-score) crosses back inside ±2σ bands.
Breakout (BOL / BOS): when price continues to expand beyond ±2σ.
Volatility Regime Classification
The indicator detects whether the market is currently in a low-vol or high-vol regime using percentile statistics of σ.
Low vol → Mean Reversion preferred
High vol → Breakout preferred
🧠 Adaptive Switches
A. Freeze MA/σ - Use previous-bar stats to avoid repainting and lag.
B. Confirm on Close - Only generate signals once the base-timeframe bar closes (eliminates look-ahead bias).
C. Return-based Signal - Use log-return Z-score instead of price deviation — normalizes volatility across assets.
D. Outlier Filter - Exclude bars with abnormal single-bar returns (e.g., >20%). Reduces false spikes.
E. Regime Gating - Automatically switch between Mean Reversion and Breakout logic depending on volatility percentile.
Each module can be toggled individually to test different statistical behaviours or tailor to a specific market condition.
📊 Interpretation
When the histogram of returns approximates a normal distribution, mean-reversion logic is often more effective.
When price persistently drifts beyond ±2σ or ±3σ, the distribution becomes leptokurtic (fat-tailed) — a breakout structure dominates.
Hence, this tool can help you:
Identify whether an asset behaves more “Gaussian” or “fat-tailed”;
Select the correct trading regime (MR or BO);
Quantitatively measure market tension and volatility clusters.
🧩 Recommended Use
Works on any timeframe and any asset.
Best used on liquid instruments (e.g., XAU/USD, indices, major FX pairs).
Combine with volume, sentiment or structural filters to confirm signals.
For strategy automation, pair with the companion script:
🧠 “Z-Score Strategy • Multi-Source Confirm (MRL/MRS/BOL/BOS)”.
⚠️ Disclaimer
This script is designed for educational and research purposes.
Statistical deviation ≠ directional prediction — use with sound risk management.
Past distribution patterns may shift under new volatility regimes.
==================================================================================
中文说明（简体）
概念简介
该指标基于价格的统计分布原理，将每根 K 线的波动转化为标准化的 Z-Score（标准差偏离值），用于刻画市场处于均衡或偏离状态。
它同时支持 均值回归（Mean Reversion） 与 突破延展（Breakout） 两种逻辑，并可根据市场波动结构自动切换策略模式。
⚙️ 主要功能模块
Z-Score 通道（±1σ / ±2σ / ±3σ）
用滚动均值与标准差动态绘制的统计波动带，价格超出 ±2σ 区域通常意味着极端偏离。
双信号系统
MRL / MRS（均值回归多空）：价格重新回到 ±2σ 以内时触发。
BOL / BOS（突破延展多空）：价格持续运行在 ±2σ 之外时触发。
波动率分层
自动识别市场处于高波动还是低波动区间：
低波动期 → 适合均值回归逻辑；
高波动期 → 适合突破趋势逻辑。
🧠 A–E 模块说明
A. 固定统计参数：使用上一根 K 线的均值和标准差，防止重绘。
B. 收盘确认信号：仅在当前时间框架收盘后生成信号，避免前视偏差。
C. 收益率信号模式：采用对数收益率的 Z-Score，更具普适性。
D. 异常波过滤：忽略单根极端波动（如 >20%）的噪声信号。
E. 波动率调节逻辑：根据市场处于高/低波动区间，自动切换 MRL/MRS 或 BOL/BOS。
📊 应用解读
如果收益率分布接近正态分布 → 市场倾向震荡，MRL/MRS 效果较佳；
若价格频繁偏离 ±2σ 或 ±3σ → 市场呈现“肥尾”分布，趋势延展占主导。
因此，该指标的核心目标是：
识别当前市场的统计结构类型；
根据波动特征自动切换交易逻辑；
提供结构化、可量化的市场状态刻画。
💡 使用建议
适用于所有时间框架与金融品种。
建议结合成交量或结构性指标过滤。
若用于策略回测，可搭配同名 “Z-Score Strategy • Multi-Source Confirm” 策略脚本。
⚠️ 免责声明
本指标仅用于研究与教学，不构成任何投资建议。
统计偏离 ≠ 趋势预测，实际市场行为可能在不同波动结构下改变。
True Average PriceTrue Average Price
Overview
The indicator plots a single line representing the cumulative average closing price of any symbol you choose. It lets you project a long-term mean onto your active chart, which is useful when your favourite symbol offers limited history but you still want context from an index or data-rich feed.
How It Works
The script retrieves all available historical bars from the selected symbol, sums their closes, counts the bars, and divides the totals to compute the lifetime average. That value is projected onto the chart you are viewing so you can compare current price action to the broader historical mean.
Inputs
Use Symbol : Toggle on to select an alternate symbol; leave off to default to the current chart.
Symbol : Pick the data source used for the average when the toggle is enabled.
Line Color : Choose the display color of the average line.
Line Width : Adjust the thickness of the plotted line.
Usage Tips
Apply the indicator to exchanges with shallow history while sourcing the average from a complete index (e.g., INDEX:BTCUSD for crypto pairs).
Experiment with different symbols to understand how alternative data feeds influence the baseline level.
Disclaimer
This indicator is designed as a technical analysis tool and should be used in conjunction with other forms of analysis and proper risk management.
Past performance does not guarantee future results, and traders should thoroughly test any strategy before implementing it with real capital.

"The best traders read price action, not indicators. But when indicators help you read price action better, use them." - Al Brooks
Previous D/W/M HLOCHey traders,
Here's a simple Multi-Timeframe indicator that essentially turns time and price into a box. It'll take the previous high, low, opening price, or closing price from one of the three timeframes of your choice (day, week, or month). For whatever reason I can't get the opening price to function consistently so if you find improvements feel free to let me know, this will help traders who prefer to use opening price over closing price.
Naturally this form of charting is classical and nature and some key figures you could use to study its usage are
- Richard W. Schabacker (1930s)
- Edwards & Magee (1948)
- Peter Brandt
- Stacey Burke (more on the intraday side - typically our preference)
It's usage put plainly:
- Quantifying Accumulation or Distribution
- Revealing Energy Build-Up (Compression)
- Framing Breakouts and False Breakouts
- Structuring Time
- Identifying opportunities to trade a daily, weekly, or monthly range.
pine script tradingbot - many ema oscillator## 🧭 **Many EMA Oscillator (TradingView Pine Script Indicator)**
*A multi-layer EMA differential oscillator for trend strength and momentum analysis*
---
### 🧩 **Overview**
The **Many EMA Oscillator** is a **TradingView Pine Script indicator** designed to help traders visualize **trend direction**, **momentum strength**, and **multi-timeframe EMA alignment** in one clean oscillator panel.
It’s a **custom EMA-based trend indicator** that shows how fast or slow different **Exponential Moving Averages (EMAs)** are expanding or contracting — helping you identify **bullish and bearish momentum shifts** early.
This **Pine Script EMA indicator** is especially useful for traders looking to combine multiple **EMA signals** into one **momentum oscillator** for better clarity and precision.
---
### ⚙️ **How It Works**
1. **Multiple EMA Layers:**
The indicator calculates seven **EMAs** (default: 20, 50, 100, 150, 200, 300) and applies a **smoothing filter** using another EMA (default smoothing = 20).
This removes short-term noise and gives a smoother, professional-grade momentum reading.
2. **EMA Gap Analysis:**
The oscillator measures the **difference between consecutive EMAs**, revealing how trend layers are separating or converging.
```
diff1 = EMA(20) - EMA(50)
diff2 = EMA(50) - EMA(100)
diff3 = EMA(100) - EMA(150)
diff4 = EMA(150) - EMA(200)
diff5 = EMA(200) - EMA(300)
```
These gaps (or “differentials”) show **trend acceleration or compression**, acting like a **multi-EMA MACD system**.
3. **Color-Coded Visualization:**
Each differential (`diff1`–`diff5`) is plotted as a **histogram**:
- 🟢 **Green bars** → EMAs expanding → bullish momentum growing
- 🔴 **Red bars** → EMAs contracting → bearish momentum or correction
This gives a clean, compact view of **trend strength** without cluttering your chart.
4. **Automatic Momentum Signals:**
- **🟡 Up Triangle** → All EMA gaps increasing → strong bullish trend alignment
- **⚪ Down Triangle** → All EMA gaps decreasing → trend weakening or bearish transition
---
### 📊 **Inputs**
| Input | Default | Description |
|-------|----------|-------------|
| `smmoth_emas` | 20 | Smoothing factor for all EMAs |
| `Length2`–`Length7` | 20–300 | Adjustable EMA periods |
| `Length21`, `Length31`, `Length41`, `Length51` | Optional | For secondary EMA analysis |
---
### 🧠 **Interpretation Guide**
| Observation | Meaning |
|--------------|----------|
| Increasing green bars | Trend acceleration and bullish continuation |
| Decreasing red bars | Trend exhaustion or sideways consolidation |
| Yellow triangles | All EMA layers aligned bullishly |
| White triangles | All EMA layers aligned bearishly |
This **EMA oscillator for TradingView** simplifies **multi-EMA trading strategies** by showing alignment strength in one place.
It works great for **swing traders**, **scalpers**, and **trend-following systems**.
---
### 🧪 **Best Practices for Use**
- Works on **all TradingView timeframes** (1m, 5m, 1h, 1D, etc.)
- Suitable for **stocks, forex, crypto, and indices**
- Combine with **RSI**, **MACD**, or **price action** confirmation
- Excellent for detecting **EMA compression zones**, **trend continuation**, or **momentum shifts**
- Can be used as part of a **multi-EMA trading strategy** or **trend strength indicator setup**
---
### 💡 **Why It Stands Out**
- 100% built in **Pine Script v6**
- Optimized for **smooth EMA transitions**
- Simple color-coded momentum visualization
- Professional-grade **multi-timeframe trend oscillator**
This is one of the most **lightweight and powerful EMA oscillators** available for TradingView users who prefer clarity over clutter.

Quantum Rotational Field MappingQuantum Rotational Field Mapping (QRFM):
Phase Coherence Detection Through Complex-Plane Oscillator Analysis
Quantum Rotational Field Mapping applies complex-plane mathematics and phase-space analysis to oscillator ensembles, identifying high-probability trend ignition points by measuring when multiple independent oscillators achieve phase coherence. Unlike traditional multi-oscillator approaches that simply stack indicators or use boolean AND/OR logic, this system converts each oscillator into a rotating phasor (vector) in the complex plane and calculates the Coherence Index (CI) —a mathematical measure of how tightly aligned the ensemble has become—then generates signals only when alignment, phase direction, and pairwise entanglement all converge.
The indicator combines three mathematical frameworks: phasor representation using analytic signal theory to extract phase and amplitude from each oscillator, coherence measurement using vector summation in the complex plane to quantify group alignment, and entanglement analysis that calculates pairwise phase agreement across all oscillator combinations. This creates a multi-dimensional confirmation system that distinguishes between random oscillator noise and genuine regime transitions.
What Makes This Original
Complex-Plane Phasor Framework
This indicator implements classical signal processing mathematics adapted for market oscillators. Each oscillator—whether RSI, MACD, Stochastic, CCI, Williams %R, MFI, ROC, or TSI—is first normalized to a common scale, then converted into a complex-plane representation using an in-phase (I) and quadrature (Q) component. The in-phase component is the oscillator value itself, while the quadrature component is calculated as the first difference (derivative proxy), creating a velocity-aware representation.
From these components, the system extracts:
Phase (φ) : Calculated as φ = atan2(Q, I), representing the oscillator's position in its cycle (mapped to -180° to +180°)
Amplitude (A) : Calculated as A = √(I² + Q²), representing the oscillator's strength or conviction
This mathematical approach is fundamentally different from simply reading oscillator values. A phasor captures both where an oscillator is in its cycle (phase angle) and how strongly it's expressing that position (amplitude). Two oscillators can have the same value but be in opposite phases of their cycles—traditional analysis would see them as identical, while QRFM sees them as 180° out of phase (contradictory).
Coherence Index Calculation
The core innovation is the Coherence Index (CI) , borrowed from physics and signal processing. When you have N oscillators, each with phase φₙ, you can represent each as a unit vector in the complex plane: e^(iφₙ) = cos(φₙ) + i·sin(φₙ).
The CI measures what happens when you sum all these vectors:
Resultant Vector : R = Σ e^(iφₙ) = Σ cos(φₙ) + i·Σ sin(φₙ)
Coherence Index : CI = |R| / N
Where |R| is the magnitude of the resultant vector and N is the number of active oscillators.
The CI ranges from 0 to 1:
CI = 1.0 : Perfect coherence—all oscillators have identical phase angles, vectors point in the same direction, creating maximum constructive interference
CI = 0.0 : Complete decoherence—oscillators are randomly distributed around the circle, vectors cancel out through destructive interference
0 < CI < 1 : Partial alignment—some clustering with some scatter
This is not a simple average or correlation. The CI captures phase synchronization across the entire ensemble simultaneously. When oscillators phase-lock (align their cycles), the CI spikes regardless of their individual values. This makes it sensitive to regime transitions that traditional indicators miss.
Dominant Phase and Direction Detection
Beyond measuring alignment strength, the system calculates the dominant phase of the ensemble—the direction the resultant vector points:
Dominant Phase : φ_dom = atan2(Σ sin(φₙ), Σ cos(φₙ))
This gives the "average direction" of all oscillator phases, mapped to -180° to +180°:
+90° to -90° (right half-plane): Bullish phase dominance
+90° to +180° or -90° to -180° (left half-plane): Bearish phase dominance
The combination of CI magnitude (coherence strength) and dominant phase angle (directional bias) creates a two-dimensional signal space. High CI alone is insufficient—you need high CI plus dominant phase pointing in a tradeable direction. This dual requirement is what separates QRFM from simple oscillator averaging.
Entanglement Matrix and Pairwise Coherence
While the CI measures global alignment, the entanglement matrix measures local pairwise relationships. For every pair of oscillators (i, j), the system calculates:
E(i,j) = |cos(φᵢ - φⱼ)|
This represents the phase agreement between oscillators i and j:
E = 1.0 : Oscillators are in-phase (0° or 360° apart)
E = 0.0 : Oscillators are in quadrature (90° apart, orthogonal)
E between 0 and 1 : Varying degrees of alignment
The system counts how many oscillator pairs exceed a user-defined entanglement threshold (e.g., 0.7). This entangled pairs count serves as a confirmation filter: signals require not just high global CI, but also a minimum number of strong pairwise agreements. This prevents false ignitions where CI is high but driven by only two oscillators while the rest remain scattered.
The entanglement matrix creates an N×N symmetric matrix that can be visualized as a web—when many cells are bright (high E values), the ensemble is highly interconnected. When cells are dark, oscillators are moving independently.
Phase-Lock Tolerance Mechanism
A complementary confirmation layer is the phase-lock detector . This calculates the maximum phase spread across all oscillators:
For all pairs (i,j), compute angular distance: Δφ = |φᵢ - φⱼ|, wrapping at 180°
Max Spread = maximum Δφ across all pairs
If max spread < user threshold (e.g., 35°), the ensemble is considered phase-locked —all oscillators are within a narrow angular band.
This differs from entanglement: entanglement measures pairwise cosine similarity (magnitude of alignment), while phase-lock measures maximum angular deviation (tightness of clustering). Both must be satisfied for the highest-conviction signals.
Multi-Layer Visual Architecture
QRFM includes six visual components that represent the same underlying mathematics from different perspectives:
Circular Orbit Plot : A polar coordinate grid showing each oscillator as a vector from origin to perimeter. Angle = phase, radius = amplitude. This is a real-time snapshot of the complex plane. When vectors converge (point in similar directions), coherence is high. When scattered randomly, coherence is low. Users can see phase alignment forming before CI numerically confirms it.
Phase-Time Heat Map : A 2D matrix with rows = oscillators and columns = time bins. Each cell is colored by the oscillator's phase at that time (using a gradient where color hue maps to angle). Horizontal color bands indicate sustained phase alignment over time. Vertical color bands show moments when all oscillators shared the same phase (ignition points). This provides historical pattern recognition.
Entanglement Web Matrix : An N×N grid showing E(i,j) for all pairs. Cells are colored by entanglement strength—bright yellow/gold for high E, dark gray for low E. This reveals which oscillators are driving coherence and which are lagging. For example, if RSI and MACD show high E but Stochastic shows low E with everything, Stochastic is the outlier.
Quantum Field Cloud : A background color overlay on the price chart. Color (green = bullish, red = bearish) is determined by dominant phase. Opacity is determined by CI—high CI creates dense, opaque cloud; low CI creates faint, nearly invisible cloud. This gives an atmospheric "feel" for regime strength without looking at numbers.
Phase Spiral : A smoothed plot of dominant phase over recent history, displayed as a curve that wraps around price. When the spiral is tight and rotating steadily, the ensemble is in coherent rotation (trending). When the spiral is loose or erratic, coherence is breaking down.
Dashboard : A table showing real-time metrics: CI (as percentage), dominant phase (in degrees with directional arrow), field strength (CI × average amplitude), entangled pairs count, phase-lock status (locked/unlocked), quantum state classification ("Ignition", "Coherent", "Collapse", "Chaos"), and collapse risk (recent CI change normalized to 0-100%).
Each component is independently toggleable, allowing users to customize their workspace. The orbit plot is the most essential—it provides intuitive, visual feedback on phase alignment that no numerical dashboard can match.
Core Components and How They Work Together
1. Oscillator Normalization Engine
The foundation is creating a common measurement scale. QRFM supports eight oscillators:
RSI : Normalized from to using overbought/oversold levels (70, 30) as anchors
MACD Histogram : Normalized by dividing by rolling standard deviation, then clamped to
Stochastic %K : Normalized from using (80, 20) anchors
CCI : Divided by 200 (typical extreme level), clamped to
Williams %R : Normalized from using (-20, -80) anchors
MFI : Normalized from using (80, 20) anchors
ROC : Divided by 10, clamped to
TSI : Divided by 50, clamped to
Each oscillator can be individually enabled/disabled. Only active oscillators contribute to phase calculations. The normalization removes scale differences—a reading of +0.8 means "strongly bullish" regardless of whether it came from RSI or TSI.
2. Analytic Signal Construction
For each active oscillator at each bar, the system constructs the analytic signal:
In-Phase (I) : The normalized oscillator value itself
Quadrature (Q) : The bar-to-bar change in the normalized value (first derivative approximation)
This creates a 2D representation: (I, Q). The phase is extracted as:
φ = atan2(Q, I) × (180 / π)
This maps the oscillator to a point on the unit circle. An oscillator at the same value but rising (positive Q) will have a different phase than one that is falling (negative Q). This velocity-awareness is critical—it distinguishes between "at resistance and stalling" versus "at resistance and breaking through."
The amplitude is extracted as:
A = √(I² + Q²)
This represents the distance from origin in the (I, Q) plane. High amplitude means the oscillator is far from neutral (strong conviction). Low amplitude means it's near zero (weak/transitional state).
3. Coherence Calculation Pipeline
For each bar (or every Nth bar if phase sample rate > 1 for performance):
Step 1 : Extract phase φₙ for each of the N active oscillators
Step 2 : Compute complex exponentials: Zₙ = e^(i·φₙ·π/180) = cos(φₙ·π/180) + i·sin(φₙ·π/180)
Step 3 : Sum the complex exponentials: R = Σ Zₙ = (Σ cos φₙ) + i·(Σ sin φₙ)
Step 4 : Calculate magnitude: |R| = √
Step 5 : Normalize by count: CI_raw = |R| / N
Step 6 : Smooth the CI: CI = SMA(CI_raw, smoothing_window)
The smoothing step (default 2 bars) removes single-bar noise spikes while preserving structural coherence changes. Users can adjust this to control reactivity versus stability.
The dominant phase is calculated as:
φ_dom = atan2(Σ sin φₙ, Σ cos φₙ) × (180 / π)
This is the angle of the resultant vector R in the complex plane.
4. Entanglement Matrix Construction
For all unique pairs of oscillators (i, j) where i < j:
Step 1 : Get phases φᵢ and φⱼ
Step 2 : Compute phase difference: Δφ = φᵢ - φⱼ (in radians)
Step 3 : Calculate entanglement: E(i,j) = |cos(Δφ)|
Step 4 : Store in symmetric matrix: matrix = matrix = E(i,j)
The matrix is then scanned: count how many E(i,j) values exceed the user-defined threshold (default 0.7). This count is the entangled pairs metric.
For visualization, the matrix is rendered as an N×N table where cell brightness maps to E(i,j) intensity.
5. Phase-Lock Detection
Step 1 : For all unique pairs (i, j), compute angular distance: Δφ = |φᵢ - φⱼ|
Step 2 : Wrap angles: if Δφ > 180°, set Δφ = 360° - Δφ
Step 3 : Find maximum: max_spread = max(Δφ) across all pairs
Step 4 : Compare to tolerance: phase_locked = (max_spread < tolerance)
If phase_locked is true, all oscillators are within the specified angular cone (e.g., 35°). This is a boolean confirmation filter.
6. Signal Generation Logic
Signals are generated through multi-layer confirmation:
Long Ignition Signal :
CI crosses above ignition threshold (e.g., 0.80)
AND dominant phase is in bullish range (-90° < φ_dom < +90°)
AND phase_locked = true
AND entangled_pairs >= minimum threshold (e.g., 4)
Short Ignition Signal :
CI crosses above ignition threshold
AND dominant phase is in bearish range (φ_dom < -90° OR φ_dom > +90°)
AND phase_locked = true
AND entangled_pairs >= minimum threshold
Collapse Signal :
CI at bar minus CI at current bar > collapse threshold (e.g., 0.55)
AND CI at bar was above 0.6 (must collapse from coherent state, not from already-low state)
These are strict conditions. A high CI alone does not generate a signal—dominant phase must align with direction, oscillators must be phase-locked, and sufficient pairwise entanglement must exist. This multi-factor gating dramatically reduces false signals compared to single-condition triggers.
Calculation Methodology
Phase 1: Oscillator Computation and Normalization
On each bar, the system calculates the raw values for all enabled oscillators using standard Pine Script functions:
RSI: ta.rsi(close, length)
MACD: ta.macd() returning histogram component
Stochastic: ta.stoch() smoothed with ta.sma()
CCI: ta.cci(close, length)
Williams %R: ta.wpr(length)
MFI: ta.mfi(hlc3, length)
ROC: ta.roc(close, length)
TSI: ta.tsi(close, short, long)
Each raw value is then passed through a normalization function:
normalize(value, overbought_level, oversold_level) = 2 × (value - oversold) / (overbought - oversold) - 1
This maps the oscillator's typical range to , where -1 represents extreme bearish, 0 represents neutral, and +1 represents extreme bullish.
For oscillators without fixed ranges (MACD, ROC, TSI), statistical normalization is used: divide by a rolling standard deviation or fixed divisor, then clamp to .
Phase 2: Phasor Extraction
For each normalized oscillator value val:
I = val (in-phase component)
Q = val - val (quadrature component, first difference)
Phase calculation:
phi_rad = atan2(Q, I)
phi_deg = phi_rad × (180 / π)
Amplitude calculation:
A = √(I² + Q²)
These values are stored in arrays: osc_phases and osc_amps for each oscillator n.
Phase 3: Complex Summation and Coherence
Initialize accumulators:
sum_cos = 0
sum_sin = 0
For each oscillator n = 0 to N-1:
phi_rad = osc_phases × (π / 180)
sum_cos += cos(phi_rad)
sum_sin += sin(phi_rad)
Resultant magnitude:
resultant_mag = √(sum_cos² + sum_sin²)
Coherence Index (raw):
CI_raw = resultant_mag / N
Smoothed CI:
CI = SMA(CI_raw, smoothing_window)
Dominant phase:
phi_dom_rad = atan2(sum_sin, sum_cos)
phi_dom_deg = phi_dom_rad × (180 / π)
Phase 4: Entanglement Matrix Population
For i = 0 to N-2:
For j = i+1 to N-1:
phi_i = osc_phases × (π / 180)
phi_j = osc_phases × (π / 180)
delta_phi = phi_i - phi_j
E = |cos(delta_phi)|
matrix_index_ij = i × N + j
matrix_index_ji = j × N + i
entangle_matrix = E
entangle_matrix = E
if E >= threshold:
entangled_pairs += 1
The matrix uses flat array storage with index mapping: index(row, col) = row × N + col.
Phase 5: Phase-Lock Check
max_spread = 0
For i = 0 to N-2:
For j = i+1 to N-1:
delta = |osc_phases - osc_phases |
if delta > 180:
delta = 360 - delta
max_spread = max(max_spread, delta)
phase_locked = (max_spread < tolerance)
Phase 6: Signal Evaluation
Ignition Long :
ignition_long = (CI crosses above threshold) AND
(phi_dom > -90 AND phi_dom < 90) AND
phase_locked AND
(entangled_pairs >= minimum)
Ignition Short :
ignition_short = (CI crosses above threshold) AND
(phi_dom < -90 OR phi_dom > 90) AND
phase_locked AND
(entangled_pairs >= minimum)
Collapse :
CI_prev = CI
collapse = (CI_prev - CI > collapse_threshold) AND (CI_prev > 0.6)
All signals are evaluated on bar close. The crossover and crossunder functions ensure signals fire only once when conditions transition from false to true.
Phase 7: Field Strength and Visualization Metrics
Average Amplitude :
avg_amp = (Σ osc_amps ) / N
Field Strength :
field_strength = CI × avg_amp
Collapse Risk (for dashboard):
collapse_risk = (CI - CI) / max(CI , 0.1)
collapse_risk_pct = clamp(collapse_risk × 100, 0, 100)
Quantum State Classification :
if (CI > threshold AND phase_locked):
state = "Ignition"
else if (CI > 0.6):
state = "Coherent"
else if (collapse):
state = "Collapse"
else:
state = "Chaos"
Phase 8: Visual Rendering
Orbit Plot : For each oscillator, convert polar (phase, amplitude) to Cartesian (x, y) for grid placement:
radius = amplitude × grid_center × 0.8
x = radius × cos(phase × π/180)
y = radius × sin(phase × π/180)
col = center + x (mapped to grid coordinates)
row = center - y
Heat Map : For each oscillator row and time column, retrieve historical phase value at lookback = (columns - col) × sample_rate, then map phase to color using a hue gradient.
Entanglement Web : Render matrix as table cell with background color opacity = E(i,j).
Field Cloud : Background color = (phi_dom > -90 AND phi_dom < 90) ? green : red, with opacity = mix(min_opacity, max_opacity, CI).
All visual components render only on the last bar (barstate.islast) to minimize computational overhead.
How to Use This Indicator
Step 1 : Apply QRFM to your chart. It works on all timeframes and asset classes, though 15-minute to 4-hour timeframes provide the best balance of responsiveness and noise reduction.
Step 2 : Enable the dashboard (default: top right) and the circular orbit plot (default: middle left). These are your primary visual feedback tools.
Step 3 : Optionally enable the heat map, entanglement web, and field cloud based on your preference. New users may find all visuals overwhelming; start with dashboard + orbit plot.
Step 4 : Observe for 50-100 bars to let the indicator establish baseline coherence patterns. Markets have different "normal" CI ranges—some instruments naturally run higher or lower coherence.
Understanding the Circular Orbit Plot
The orbit plot is a polar grid showing oscillator vectors in real-time:
Center point : Neutral (zero phase and amplitude)
Each vector : A line from center to a point on the grid
Vector angle : The oscillator's phase (0° = right/east, 90° = up/north, 180° = left/west, -90° = down/south)
Vector length : The oscillator's amplitude (short = weak signal, long = strong signal)
Vector label : First letter of oscillator name (R = RSI, M = MACD, etc.)
What to watch :
Convergence : When all vectors cluster in one quadrant or sector, CI is rising and coherence is forming. This is your pre-signal warning.
Scatter : When vectors point in random directions (360° spread), CI is low and the market is in a non-trending or transitional regime.
Rotation : When the cluster rotates smoothly around the circle, the ensemble is in coherent oscillation—typically seen during steady trends.
Sudden flips : When the cluster rapidly jumps from one side to the opposite (e.g., +90° to -90°), a phase reversal has occurred—often coinciding with trend reversals.
Example: If you see RSI, MACD, and Stochastic all pointing toward 45° (northeast) with long vectors, while CCI, TSI, and ROC point toward 40-50° as well, coherence is high and dominant phase is bullish. Expect an ignition signal if CI crosses threshold.
Reading Dashboard Metrics
The dashboard provides numerical confirmation of what the orbit plot shows visually:
CI : Displays as 0-100%. Above 70% = high coherence (strong regime), 40-70% = moderate, below 40% = low (poor conditions for trend entries).
Dom Phase : Angle in degrees with directional arrow. ⬆ = bullish bias, ⬇ = bearish bias, ⬌ = neutral.
Field Strength : CI weighted by amplitude. High values (> 0.6) indicate not just alignment but strong alignment.
Entangled Pairs : Count of oscillator pairs with E > threshold. Higher = more confirmation. If minimum is set to 4, you need at least 4 pairs entangled for signals.
Phase Lock : 🔒 YES (all oscillators within tolerance) or 🔓 NO (spread too wide).
State : Real-time classification:
🚀 IGNITION: CI just crossed threshold with phase-lock
⚡ COHERENT: CI is high and stable
💥 COLLAPSE: CI has dropped sharply
🌀 CHAOS: Low CI, scattered phases
Collapse Risk : 0-100% scale based on recent CI change. Above 50% warns of imminent breakdown.
Interpreting Signals
Long Ignition (Blue Triangle Below Price) :
Occurs when CI crosses above threshold (e.g., 0.80)
Dominant phase is in bullish range (-90° to +90°)
All oscillators are phase-locked (within tolerance)
Minimum entangled pairs requirement met
Interpretation : The oscillator ensemble has transitioned from disorder to coherent bullish alignment. This is a high-probability long entry point. The multi-layer confirmation (CI + phase direction + lock + entanglement) ensures this is not a single-oscillator whipsaw.
Short Ignition (Red Triangle Above Price) :
Same conditions as long, but dominant phase is in bearish range (< -90° or > +90°)
Interpretation : Coherent bearish alignment has formed. High-probability short entry.
Collapse (Circles Above and Below Price) :
CI has dropped by more than the collapse threshold (e.g., 0.55) over a 5-bar window
CI was previously above 0.6 (collapsing from coherent state)
Interpretation : Phase coherence has broken down. If you are in a position, this is an exit warning. If looking to enter, stand aside—regime is transitioning.
Phase-Time Heat Map Patterns
Enable the heat map and position it at bottom right. The rows represent individual oscillators, columns represent time bins (most recent on left).
Pattern: Horizontal Color Bands
If a row (e.g., RSI) shows consistent color across columns (say, green for several bins), that oscillator has maintained stable phase over time. If all rows show horizontal bands of similar color, the entire ensemble has been phase-locked for an extended period—this is a strong trending regime.
Pattern: Vertical Color Bands
If a column (single time bin) shows all cells with the same or very similar color, that moment in time had high coherence. These vertical bands often align with ignition signals or major price pivots.
Pattern: Rainbow Chaos
If cells are random colors (red, green, yellow mixed with no pattern), coherence is low. The ensemble is scattered. Avoid trading during these periods unless you have external confirmation.
Pattern: Color Transition
If you see a row transition from red to green (or vice versa) sharply, that oscillator has phase-flipped. If multiple rows do this simultaneously, a regime change is underway.
Entanglement Web Analysis
Enable the web matrix (default: opposite corner from heat map). It shows an N×N grid where N = number of active oscillators.
Bright Yellow/Gold Cells : High pairwise entanglement. For example, if the RSI-MACD cell is bright gold, those two oscillators are moving in phase. If the RSI-Stochastic cell is bright, they are entangled as well.
Dark Gray Cells : Low entanglement. Oscillators are decorrelated or in quadrature.
Diagonal : Always marked with "—" because an oscillator is always perfectly entangled with itself.
How to use :
Scan for clustering: If most cells are bright, coherence is high across the board. If only a few cells are bright, coherence is driven by a subset (e.g., RSI and MACD are aligned, but nothing else is—weak signal).
Identify laggards: If one row/column is entirely dark, that oscillator is the outlier. You may choose to disable it or monitor for when it joins the group (late confirmation).
Watch for web formation: During low-coherence periods, the matrix is mostly dark. As coherence builds, cells begin lighting up. A sudden "web" of connections forming visually precedes ignition signals.
Trading Workflow
Step 1: Monitor Coherence Level
Check the dashboard CI metric or observe the orbit plot. If CI is below 40% and vectors are scattered, conditions are poor for trend entries. Wait.
Step 2: Detect Coherence Building
When CI begins rising (say, from 30% to 50-60%) and you notice vectors on the orbit plot starting to cluster, coherence is forming. This is your alert phase—do not enter yet, but prepare.
Step 3: Confirm Phase Direction
Check the dominant phase angle and the orbit plot quadrant where clustering is occurring:
Clustering in right half (0° to ±90°): Bullish bias forming
Clustering in left half (±90° to 180°): Bearish bias forming
Verify the dashboard shows the corresponding directional arrow (⬆ or ⬇).
Step 4: Wait for Signal Confirmation
Do not enter based on rising CI alone. Wait for the full ignition signal:
CI crosses above threshold
Phase-lock indicator shows 🔒 YES
Entangled pairs count >= minimum
Directional triangle appears on chart
This ensures all layers have aligned.
Step 5: Execute Entry
Long : Blue triangle below price appears → enter long
Short : Red triangle above price appears → enter short
Step 6: Position Management
Initial Stop : Place stop loss based on your risk management rules (e.g., recent swing low/high, ATR-based buffer).
Monitoring :
Watch the field cloud density. If it remains opaque and colored in your direction, the regime is intact.
Check dashboard collapse risk. If it rises above 50%, prepare for exit.
Monitor the orbit plot. If vectors begin scattering or the cluster flips to the opposite side, coherence is breaking.
Exit Triggers :
Collapse signal fires (circles appear)
Dominant phase flips to opposite half-plane
CI drops below 40% (coherence lost)
Price hits your profit target or trailing stop
Step 7: Post-Exit Analysis
After exiting, observe whether a new ignition forms in the opposite direction (reversal) or if CI remains low (transition to range). Use this to decide whether to re-enter, reverse, or stand aside.
Best Practices
Use Price Structure as Context
QRFM identifies when coherence forms but does not specify where price will go. Combine ignition signals with support/resistance levels, trendlines, or chart patterns. For example:
Long ignition near a major support level after a pullback: high-probability bounce
Long ignition in the middle of a range with no structure: lower probability
Multi-Timeframe Confirmation
Open QRFM on two timeframes simultaneously:
Higher timeframe (e.g., 4-hour): Use CI level to determine regime bias. If 4H CI is above 60% and dominant phase is bullish, the market is in a bullish regime.
Lower timeframe (e.g., 15-minute): Execute entries on ignition signals that align with the higher timeframe bias.
This prevents counter-trend trades and increases win rate.
Distinguish Between Regime Types
High CI, stable dominant phase (State: Coherent) : Trending market. Ignitions are continuation signals; collapses are profit-taking or reversal warnings.
Low CI, erratic dominant phase (State: Chaos) : Ranging or choppy market. Avoid ignition signals or reduce position size. Wait for coherence to establish.
Moderate CI with frequent collapses : Whipsaw environment. Use wider stops or stand aside.
Adjust Parameters to Instrument and Timeframe
Crypto/Forex (high volatility) : Lower ignition threshold (0.65-0.75), lower CI smoothing (2-3), shorter oscillator lengths (7-10).
Stocks/Indices (moderate volatility) : Standard settings (threshold 0.75-0.85, smoothing 5-7, oscillator lengths 14).
Lower timeframes (5-15 min) : Reduce phase sample rate to 1-2 for responsiveness.
Higher timeframes (daily+) : Increase CI smoothing and oscillator lengths for noise reduction.
Use Entanglement Count as Conviction Filter
The minimum entangled pairs setting controls signal strictness:
Low (1-2) : More signals, lower quality (acceptable if you have other confirmation)
Medium (3-5) : Balanced (recommended for most traders)
High (6+) : Very strict, fewer signals, highest quality
Adjust based on your trade frequency preference and risk tolerance.
Monitor Oscillator Contribution
Use the entanglement web to see which oscillators are driving coherence. If certain oscillators are consistently dark (low E with all others), they may be adding noise. Consider disabling them. For example:
On low-volume instruments, MFI may be unreliable → disable MFI
On strongly trending instruments, mean-reversion oscillators (Stochastic, RSI) may lag → reduce weight or disable
Respect the Collapse Signal
Collapse events are early warnings. Price may continue in the original direction for several bars after collapse fires, but the underlying regime has weakened. Best practice:
If in profit: Take partial or full profit on collapse
If at breakeven/small loss: Exit immediately
If collapse occurs shortly after entry: Likely a false ignition; exit to avoid drawdown
Collapses do not guarantee immediate reversals—they signal uncertainty .
Combine with Volume Analysis
If your instrument has reliable volume:
Ignitions with expanding volume: Higher conviction
Ignitions with declining volume: Weaker, possibly false
Collapses with volume spikes: Strong reversal signal
Collapses with low volume: May just be consolidation
Volume is not built into QRFM (except via MFI), so add it as external confirmation.
Observe the Phase Spiral
The spiral provides a quick visual cue for rotation consistency:
Tight, smooth spiral : Ensemble is rotating coherently (trending)
Loose, erratic spiral : Phase is jumping around (ranging or transitional)
If the spiral tightens, coherence is building. If it loosens, coherence is dissolving.
Do Not Overtrade Low-Coherence Periods
When CI is persistently below 40% and the state is "Chaos," the market is not in a regime where phase analysis is predictive. During these times:
Reduce position size
Widen stops
Wait for coherence to return
QRFM's strength is regime detection. If there is no regime, the tool correctly signals "stand aside."
Use Alerts Strategically
Set alerts for:
Long Ignition
Short Ignition
Collapse
Phase Lock (optional)
Configure alerts to "Once per bar close" to avoid intrabar repainting and noise. When an alert fires, manually verify:
Orbit plot shows clustering
Dashboard confirms all conditions
Price structure supports the trade
Do not blindly trade alerts—use them as prompts for analysis.
Ideal Market Conditions
Best Performance
Instruments :
Liquid, actively traded markets (major forex pairs, large-cap stocks, major indices, top-tier crypto)
Instruments with clear cyclical oscillator behavior (avoid extremely illiquid or manipulated markets)
Timeframes :
15-minute to 4-hour: Optimal balance of noise reduction and responsiveness
1-hour to daily: Slower, higher-conviction signals; good for swing trading
5-minute: Acceptable for scalping if parameters are tightened and you accept more noise
Market Regimes :
Trending markets with periodic retracements (where oscillators cycle through phases predictably)
Breakout environments (coherence forms before/during breakout; collapse occurs at exhaustion)
Rotational markets with clear swings (oscillators phase-lock at turning points)
Volatility :
Moderate to high volatility (oscillators have room to move through their ranges)
Stable volatility regimes (sudden VIX spikes or flash crashes may create false collapses)
Challenging Conditions
Instruments :
Very low liquidity markets (erratic price action creates unstable oscillator phases)
Heavily news-driven instruments (fundamentals may override technical coherence)
Highly correlated instruments (oscillators may all reflect the same underlying factor, reducing independence)
Market Regimes :
Deep, prolonged consolidation (oscillators remain near neutral, CI is chronically low, few signals fire)
Extreme chop with no directional bias (oscillators whipsaw, coherence never establishes)
Gap-driven markets (large overnight gaps create phase discontinuities)
Timeframes :
Sub-5-minute charts: Noise dominates; oscillators flip rapidly; coherence is fleeting and unreliable
Weekly/monthly: Oscillators move extremely slowly; signals are rare; better suited for long-term positioning than active trading
Special Cases :
During major economic releases or earnings: Oscillators may lag price or become decorrelated as fundamentals overwhelm technicals. Reduce position size or stand aside.
In extremely low-volatility environments (e.g., holiday periods): Oscillators compress to neutral, CI may be artificially high due to lack of movement, but signals lack follow-through.
Adaptive Behavior
QRFM is designed to self-adapt to poor conditions:
When coherence is genuinely absent, CI remains low and signals do not fire
When only a subset of oscillators aligns, entangled pairs count stays below threshold and signals are filtered out
When phase-lock cannot be achieved (oscillators too scattered), the lock filter prevents signals
This means the indicator will naturally produce fewer (or zero) signals during unfavorable conditions, rather than generating false signals. This is a feature —it keeps you out of low-probability trades.

Important Disclaimers
This indicator is a technical analysis tool designed to identify periods of phase coherence across an ensemble of oscillators. It is not a standalone trading system and does not guarantee profitable trades. The Coherence Index, dominant phase, and entanglement metrics are mathematical calculations applied to historical price data—they measure past oscillator behavior and do not predict future price movements with certainty.
No Predictive Guarantee : High coherence indicates that oscillators are currently aligned, which historically has coincided with trending or directional price movement. However, past alignment does not guarantee future trends. Markets can remain coherent while prices consolidate, or lose coherence suddenly due to news, liquidity changes, or other factors not captured by oscillator mathematics.
Signal Confirmation is Probabilistic : The multi-layer confirmation system (CI threshold + dominant phase + phase-lock + entanglement) is designed to filter out low-probability setups. This increases the proportion of valid signals relative to false signals, but does not eliminate false signals entirely. Users should combine QRFM with additional analysis—support and resistance levels, volume confirmation, multi-timeframe alignment, and fundamental context—before executing trades.
Collapse Signals are Warnings, Not Reversals : A coherence collapse indicates that the oscillator ensemble has lost alignment. This often precedes trend exhaustion or reversals, but can also occur during healthy pullbacks or consolidations. Price may continue in the original direction after a collapse. Use collapses as risk management cues (tighten stops, take partial profits) rather than automatic reversal entries.
Market Regime Dependency : QRFM performs best in markets where oscillators exhibit cyclical, mean-reverting behavior and where trends are punctuated by retracements. In markets dominated by fundamental shocks, gap openings, or extreme low-liquidity conditions, oscillator coherence may be less reliable. During such periods, reduce position size or stand aside.
Risk Management is Essential : All trading involves risk of loss. Use appropriate stop losses, position sizing, and risk-per-trade limits. The indicator does not specify stop loss or take profit levels—these must be determined by the user based on their risk tolerance and account size. Never risk more than you can afford to lose.
Parameter Sensitivity : The indicator's behavior changes with input parameters. Aggressive settings (low thresholds, loose tolerances) produce more signals with lower average quality. Conservative settings (high thresholds, tight tolerances) produce fewer signals with higher average quality. Users should backtest and forward-test parameter sets on their specific instruments and timeframes before committing real capital.
No Repainting by Design : All signal conditions are evaluated on bar close using bar-close values. However, the visual components (orbit plot, heat map, dashboard) update in real-time during bar formation for monitoring purposes. For trade execution, rely on the confirmed signals (triangles and circles) that appear only after the bar closes.
Computational Load : QRFM performs extensive calculations, including nested loops for entanglement matrices and real-time table rendering. On lower-powered devices or when running multiple indicators simultaneously, users may experience lag. Use the performance optimization settings (reduce visual complexity, increase phase sample rate, disable unused oscillators) to improve responsiveness.
This system is most effective when used as one component within a broader trading methodology that includes sound risk management, multi-timeframe analysis, market context awareness, and disciplined execution. It is a tool for regime detection and signal confirmation, not a substitute for comprehensive trade planning.
Technical Notes
Calculation Timing : All signal logic (ignition, collapse) is evaluated using bar-close values. The barstate.isconfirmed or implicit bar-close behavior ensures signals do not repaint. Visual components (tables, plots) render on every tick for real-time feedback but do not affect signal generation.
Phase Wrapping : Phase angles are calculated in the range -180° to +180° using atan2. Angular distance calculations account for wrapping (e.g., the distance between +170° and -170° is 20°, not 340°). This ensures phase-lock detection works correctly across the ±180° boundary.
Array Management : The indicator uses fixed-size arrays for oscillator phases, amplitudes, and the entanglement matrix. The maximum number of oscillators is 8. If fewer oscillators are enabled, array sizes shrink accordingly (only active oscillators are processed).
Matrix Indexing : The entanglement matrix is stored as a flat array with size N×N, where N is the number of active oscillators. Index mapping: index(row, col) = row × N + col. Symmetric pairs (i,j) and (j,i) are stored identically.
Normalization Stability : Oscillators are normalized to using fixed reference levels (e.g., RSI overbought/oversold at 70/30). For unbounded oscillators (MACD, ROC, TSI), statistical normalization (division by rolling standard deviation) is used, with clamping to prevent extreme outliers from distorting phase calculations.
Smoothing and Lag : The CI smoothing window (SMA) introduces lag proportional to the window size. This is intentional—it filters out single-bar noise spikes in coherence. Users requiring faster reaction can reduce the smoothing window to 1-2 bars, at the cost of increased sensitivity to noise.
Complex Number Representation : Pine Script does not have native complex number types. Complex arithmetic is implemented using separate real and imaginary accumulators (sum_cos, sum_sin) and manual calculation of magnitude (sqrt(real² + imag²)) and argument (atan2(imag, real)).
Lookback Limits : The indicator respects Pine Script's maximum lookback constraints. Historical phase and amplitude values are accessed using the operator, with lookback limited to the chart's available bar history (max_bars_back=5000 declared).
Visual Rendering Performance : Tables (orbit plot, heat map, web, dashboard) are conditionally deleted and recreated on each update using table.delete() and table.new(). This prevents memory leaks but incurs redraw overhead. Rendering is restricted to barstate.islast (last bar) to minimize computational load—historical bars do not render visuals.
Alert Condition Triggers : alertcondition() functions evaluate on bar close when their boolean conditions transition from false to true. Alerts do not fire repeatedly while a condition remains true (e.g., CI stays above threshold for 10 bars fires only once on the initial cross).
Color Gradient Functions : The phaseColor() function maps phase angles to RGB hues using sine waves offset by 120° (red, green, blue channels). This creates a continuous spectrum where -180° to +180° spans the full color wheel. The amplitudeColor() function maps amplitude to grayscale intensity. The coherenceColor() function uses cos(phase) to map contribution to CI (positive = green, negative = red).
No External Data Requests : QRFM operates entirely on the chart's symbol and timeframe. It does not use request.security() or access external data sources. All calculations are self-contained, avoiding lookahead bias from higher-timeframe requests.
Deterministic Behavior : Given identical input parameters and price data, QRFM produces identical outputs. There are no random elements, probabilistic sampling, or time-of-day dependencies.

Trend Duration Forecast [ChartPrime]⯁ OVERVIEW
The Trend Duration Forecast indicator is designed to estimate the probable lifespan of a bullish or bearish trend. Using a Hull Moving Average (HMA) to detect directional shifts, it tracks the duration of each historical trend and calculates an average to forecast how long the current trend is statistically likely to continue. This allows traders to visualize both real-time trend strength and potential exhaustion zones with exceptional clarity.
⯁ KEY FEATURES
Dynamic Trend Detection: Utilizes the Hull Moving Average to identify when price transitions into a new uptrend or downtrend.
Trend Duration Counting: Measures the number of bars in each completed bullish and bearish phase to understand trend persistence.
Forecast Projection: Automatically projects an estimated trend continuation line based on the average length of recent trends.
Real-Time Updates: Continuously updates the “Real Length” label as the trend develops.
Historical Data Table: Displays previous trend durations for both bullish and bearish cycles, along with their averages.
Adaptive Sampling: Uses a customizable sample size to smooth out volatility in the forecast and provide statistically meaningful projections.
Color-Based Clarity: Highlights uptrends in green and downtrends in orange for instant visual interpretation.
⯁ USAGE
Use the Trend Detection Sensitivity setting to control how fast or slow the indicator reacts to trend changes — lower values increase responsiveness, while higher values smooth out noise.
Compare the Real Length of the ongoing trend with the Probable Length forecast to estimate whether the move is nearing exhaustion.
Observe the historical duration table to understand the average lifespan of trends in the current market structure.
Use the color-coded HMA line and projection arrows to identify when momentum strength is fading and prepare for possible reversals.
Ideal for swing or trend-following strategies where trend longevity is crucial to managing entries and exits effectively.
⯁ CONCLUSION
The Trend Duration Forecast gives traders a quantitative edge by combining real-time trend tracking with statistical forecasting. It helps identify not only when a new trend begins, but also how long it’s likely to persist based on past market behavior. This indicator enhances timing precision for both entries and exits, supporting smarter trend-following decisions with clear, data-driven insights.
Swing High/Low (Adaptive)Swing High/Low (Adaptive)
Overview
The Indicator is a pivot point detection tool that identifies swing highs and lows with invalidation tracking. The key differentiator of this indicator is its adaptive invalidation system . Most pivot indicators simply mark every detected pivot without considering whether subsequent price action has made earlier pivots less relevant.
How It Works
The indicator uses Pine Script's native ta.pivotlow() and ta.pivothigh() functions combined with custom logic to detect swing points. The adaptive algorithm evaluates each potential pivot against the following criteria:
For Low Pivots:
Confirms a new low pivot when it's the next expected pivot type in the swing sequence
If consecutive lows occur, only accepts a new low if it's lower than the previous low
Marks the previous low as invalidated when a stronger low is detected
For High Pivots:
Confirms a new high pivot when it's the next expected pivot type in the swing sequence
If consecutive highs occur, only accepts a new high if it's higher than the previous high
Marks the previous high as invalidated when a stronger high is detected
This approach ensures that the indicator maintains clean swing structure and automatically adjusts when price action creates stronger pivots, providing a more realistic view of support and resistance levels.

2. Support and Resistance Identification
Use confirmed swing highs and lows as potential support and resistance levels for entry and exit planning.
3. Trend Confirmation
The ZigZag visualization helps confirm trends by showing the sequence of higher highs and higher lows (uptrend) or lower highs and lower lows (downtrend).
Disclaimer
This indicator is designed as a technical analysis tool and should be used in conjunction with other forms of analysis and proper risk management. Past performance does not guarantee future results, and traders should thoroughly test any strategy before implementing it with real capital.
