Black–Scholes model - Options premium calculatorBlack-Scholes Options Pricing Calculator in Pine Script Introduction
The Black-Scholes model is one of the most widely used mathematical models for pricing options. It provides a theoretical estimate of the price of European-style options based on factors such as the underlying asset price, strike price, time to expiration, volatility, risk-free rate, and option type.
This Pine Script implementation of the Black-Scholes options pricing model enables traders to calculate call and put option prices directly within TradingView, helping them assess potential trades more efficiently.
What Does This Script Do?
This script allows traders to input essential option parameters and instantly calculate both call and put option prices using the Black-Scholes formula. It provides:
• A user-friendly interface for inputting option parameters.
• Automatic computation of option prices.
• Real-time updates as market data changes.
Key Features:
• Uses the Black-Scholes formula to compute European call and put option prices.
• User-defined inputs for stock price, strike price, time to expiration, volatility, and risk-free rate.
• Displays calculated option prices on the TradingView chart.
Understanding the Black-Scholes Formula:
The Black-Scholes model is given by the following equations:
C=S0N(d1)−Xe−rtN(d2)C = S_0 N(d_1) - Xe^{-rt} N(d_2) P=Xe−rtN(−d2)−S0N(−d1)P = Xe^{-rt} N(-d_2) - S_0 N(-d_1)
Where:
• CC = Call option price
• PP = Put option price
• S0S_0 = Current stock price
• XX = Strike price
• rr = Risk-free interest rate
• tt = Time to expiration (in years)
• σ\sigma = Volatility of the stock (annualized)
• N(x)N(x) = Cumulative standard normal distribution
• d1d_1 and d2d_2 are given by:
d1=ln(S0/X)+(r+σ2/2)tσtd_1 = \frac{ \ln(S_0/X) + (r + \sigma^2/2)t }{ \sigma \sqrt{t} } d2=d1−σtd_2 = d_1 - \sigma \sqrt{t}
This script implements these calculations efficiently in Pine Script to help traders quickly determine fair values for options based on current market conditions.
Example Calculation:
(The following example values were true at the time of publishing this script. Option prices fluctuate constantly, so actual values may vary.)
• Underlying asset price (NIFTY): 23,519.35
• ATM Call Strike Price: 23,500
• ATM Put Strike Price: 23,550
• IV (Implied Volatility) for Call Option: 8.1%
• IV (Implied Volatility) for Put Option: 10.1%
• Expiry Date: April 3, 2025
Using the Black-Scholes model, the calculated theoretical prices are:
• Theoretical ATM CE price: ₹129
• Theoretical ATM PE price: ₹118
For comparison, the actual option prices from the option chain table at the time of writing were:
• Actual ATM CE price: ₹139.70
• Actual ATM PE price: ₹120.30
As we can see, there is a larger difference between the theoretical price and actual market price for the ATM Call option compared to the ATM Put option.
If you're an experienced trader, you likely know how to use this kind of information to identify potential market inefficiencies or trading opportunities.
How to Use This Script:
1. Add the script to your TradingView chart.
2. Input the necessary parameters such as stock price, strike price, volatility, risk-free rate, and time to expiration.
3. View the calculated call and put option prices directly on the chart.
This Black-Scholes options pricing calculator provides a convenient way to compute theoretical option prices within TradingView. It helps traders analyse whether an option is fairly priced based on market conditions.
While the Black-Scholes model has its limitations (e.g., it does not account for early exercise of American options or dividend payments), it remains a powerful tool for European-style options pricing and a foundational concept in financial markets.
A handy little tool! Unfortunately, this script requires manual data entry since automatic data capture is currently not possible. If this ever becomes feasible in the future, an updated version will be released.

BB LevelsBB Levels — Volatility-Based Weekly Trading Ranges
Overview:
BB Levels is a multi-timeframe indicator that projects weekly trading ranges using historical price behavior and volatility modeling. It combines data from both the 4H and Daily timeframes to provide a dual-perspective view of expected price extremes.
Solid Lines → Based on the Daily timeframe (smoother, broader volatility)
Dashed Lines → Based on the 4H timeframe (finer, more reactive to short-term volatility)
How It Works:
The indicator employs a Markov Switching Model to estimate the prevailing market regime and generate a forecasted directional bias. It then applies average historical volatility to project a weekly range:
The centerline is a forecasted “zero level” based on the prior week’s close, adjusted by regime and trend forecast.
The upper and lower bounds are derived from average weekly volatility, scaled to reflect expected movement.
Two versions are shown:
Daily (solid): Represents the more conservative, long-term expectations.
4H (dashed): Captures short-term momentum and faster volatility shifts.
Important Note:
These levels represent statistical expectations, not fixed boundaries. Price may:
Consolidate within the dashed (4H) range during quiet periods
Break beyond the solid (Daily) range during news events or trending expansions
Designed For:
Swing traders seeking structured, volatility-adjusted weekly levels
Day traders targeting high-probability reversal zones
Strategists combining trend forecasting with expected price behavior
Uptrick: Reversal Matrix +Overview
The Uptrick: Reversal Matrix + is designed as a comprehensive tool that organizes market information in a visually intuitive way. It presents a variety of signals and data points on the chart, aiming to provide clarity about potential reversals, directional momentum, and the broader context surrounding price behavior. By consolidating numerous indicators and statistics into a single interface, it serves as a versatile companion for different trading styles and time horizons.
Purpose
This indicator offers a multifunctional approach to market analysis. It seeks to help users gain a more holistic view of current conditions rather than focusing on isolated data points. Its primary goal is to guide traders toward recognizing evolving market structures, shifts in buying or selling pressure, and periods where price movement may exhibit stronger or weaker momentum. Because it is designed for adaptive use, it can cater to fast, intraday styles or more deliberate, long-term strategies, depending on how the user configures it.
Originality and Uniqueness
The Reversal Matrix + stands out by merging various categories of market data into cohesive visuals and tables. While many indicators offer singular signals or straightforward buy/sell prompts, this script integrates numerous underlying components and displays them in organized panels. Each piece of data, from volume characteristics to volatility states, is contextualized. This multi-layered approach helps traders see more than just a single dimension of the market. Whether one is exploring short-term breakouts, potential traps, or broader market regimes, the tool accommodates multiple perspectives within a single framework.
Inputs
1. Sensitivity.
This setting allows you to choose different levels based on how frequently you would like signals to appear. Selecting a higher sensitivity may capture faster changes but can produce a greater number of signals. More moderate or smoother settings can be preferable for users looking for less frequent but potentially clearer indications of shifts.
2. Trading Style.
This option adapts the tool to match conservative, normal, or more aggressive preferences. When choosing a conservative style, the script attempts to filter out smaller fluctuations, while the aggressive style might highlight more potential turning points as they emerge.
3. Potential Signal Threshold Difference
This setting adjusts the sensitivity of potential reversal signals. A lower value means the script will highlight only the most distinct setups, filtering out weaker or borderline scenarios. A higher value makes the tool more receptive to subtle shifts, potentially flagging more frequent signals. It allows users to fine-tune how responsive the script is to early momentum changes, depending on their preferred level of signal strictness.
4. Table Positions (Optional).
There are inputs that let you decide the on-chart position of the tables. You can enable or disable these tables and choose where they appear (for instance, top-right or bottom-left), depending on how you want the data displayed alongside price bars.
Table and Its Position
When enabled, a large table, known as the Full Metrics Table, offers extensive details about various technical and behavioral metrics. You can place it anywhere on your chart layout for convenience. It is designed to give you a granular view of current conditions without overwhelming the main price candles themselves.
Another, smaller panel known as the Final Verdict Table can also be displayed at a user-chosen position. This panel simplifies the script’s internal assessments into broader verdicts or summaries, allowing for a quick read on the market’s status.
Features
Multi-Faceted Signal and Alert System.
The indicator continuously scans market activity, highlighting events such as sudden rises or drops, changes in volatility, and shifts in momentum. Users can configure an array of alerts that instantly notify them of these occurrences, reducing the need to constantly monitor the chart.
Candle Overlays and Fading Effects .
In addition to standard chart candles, the script offers visual cues by shading or coloring candles differently when it detects certain signals. The fading mechanism gradually diminishes the bar color of older signals so that recent ones are more noticeable. This helps keep the focus on current opportunities while retaining a historical context.
Contextual Market Synopsis .
Each time a candle closes, the tool updates a variety of behind-the-scenes checks. This process helps the user see whether the market remains within the same general state (trending, ranging, or reversing) or is shifting rapidly. It also adds clarity when conditions may be transitioning between bullish and bearish inclinations.
Adaptable Settings for Different Styles .
Since traders differ in their tolerance for rapid fluctuations, the script’s adjustable Sensitivity and Trading Style inputs provide a way to fine-tune how it reacts. Someone trading on shorter timeframes can opt for more frequent signals that capture subtle changes, whereas a position trader might lean toward smoother outputs that highlight only stronger, more sustained conditions.
Extended Data Analysis .
Beyond immediate buy/sell possibilities, the Reversal Matrix+ delivers comprehensive data to help users confirm or question a market stance. A wide range of volume, volatility, and price action elements are factored in, giving each signal additional context rather than a simple green or red highlight.
Final Verdict Summaries .
When the second table is enabled, it condenses key aspects of the indicator’s internal logic into straightforward statements. Rather than navigating multiple data rows, you can check if the market appears more stable or volatile, potentially bullish or bearish, and whether a reversal probability is deemed high or low.
Large-Scale Alert Coverage .
More than fifty specialized alerts focus on distinct aspects, enabling users to track everything from volume anomalies to momentum acceleration.
Specialized Color Schemes .
To assist in quickly spotting bullish or bearish tendencies, candles and background components may be tinted in line with the latest recognized conditions. This visual reinforcement makes it easier to decide if ongoing signals confirm a previous stance or suggest a change.
Buy/Sell Signals
A core function of the script is to present buy and sell indications on the chart, identifying moments when price momentum may be shifting in a meaningful way. These signals come in two varieties: potential reversals and confirmed reversals. Potential reversals appear sooner, providing an early heads-up that market behavior could be turning. Confirmed reversals require a stronger confluence of underlying conditions, aiming to reduce the likelihood of false starts.
Internally, the script examines multiple facets—such as momentum flow, changes in volatility, and volume characteristics—to determine when a potential transition is noteworthy enough to highlight as a signal. As soon as those conditions line up, the script applies distinct markers or shapes to the candles, making it easy to spot these pivotal points on the chart. In addition, each new signal is emphasized through color-based candle shading, while older signals gradually fade to keep attention on the most relevant opportunities.
Although these signals can function as standalone cues, many traders pair them with the script’s other outputs—such as the Full Metrics Table, the Final Verdict Table, and specialized alerts—to form a more complete perspective. For instance, a potential buy signal spotted in real time may gain extra weight if certain metrics in the table reflect a constructive market backdrop. Meanwhile, the final verdict can offer a succinct confirmation or contradiction to what the buy or sell signal suggests. By combining these elements, traders can pursue strategies that balance both immediacy and context, tailoring their entries and exits to their own tolerance for risk and time horizon.
These features collectively allow users to explore the market from multiple angles. Whether one seeks a deeper technical dive or simpler guidance, the indicator’s layered design aims to cater to a broad spectrum of trading approaches.

Final Verdict Table
The secondary table, known as the Final Verdict Table, condenses the tool’s main findings into concise statements. It watches for patterns such as alignment of trends, clarity of momentum, perceived volatility conditions, and possible reversals. Depending on what the script observes, the table might suggest a bullish confluence, a bearish confluence, an unstable market environment, or a more neutral outlook. This feature is particularly helpful for traders who prefer quick insights over a detailed breakdown of every metric.
Metrics Included in the Final Verdict Table
Directional Momentum Flow
This entry shows how the indicator interprets short-term momentum for the current market. If momentum appears to be gaining strength in one direction, it may indicate that buyers or sellers have a slight edge, whereas a flat reading might suggest indecision.
Volatility Regime Assessment
This metric provides insight into whether the market is relatively calm, moderate, or experiencing elevated volatility. A calmer volatility state might favor steadier strategies, while higher volatility could signal the potential for wider price swings.
Trend Continuity Confidence
This section reflects how confident the tool is in the market’s current trend. It helps traders see whether recent action supports a persistent uptrend, downtrend, or if there is ambiguity that undermines the idea of a consistent directional movement.
Reversal Probability Index
Here, the table evaluates whether conditions are conducive to a market turnaround. If the script observes signs of exhaustion or conflict in momentum, it may suggest an increased possibility of the price switching direction.
Manipulation Detector
This component looks for signals that the market may be attempting to trap buyers or sellers. For instance, a sudden shift might hint at a bull or bear trap scenario. This readout serves to caution against seemingly obvious moves that could quickly reverse.
Final Verdict
Below these metrics, the table presents a single overall statement that integrates the above factors. This final verdict can range from identifying a bullish or bearish confluence to calling the market unstable or neutral if conditions are inconclusive. It is intended to be a quick, high-level summary of the script’s general stance on the market.
Any Other Features
Users can access more than fifty specialized alerts that target different market conditions, from potential trap scenarios to shifts in volatility regimes. These alerts can be integrated into various platforms, ensuring that traders receive immediate notifications when critical triggers occur. The color-coded candle approach, combined with fading effects, helps maintain chart readability. Over time, this setup encourages a balance between a detailed backdrop of market data and a clear depiction of fresh signals.
Why More than One Indicator
Integrating multiple components under one roof offers several advantages. It reduces the chance of relying on a single dimension, such as price action alone, which can sometimes mislead or generate frequent false signals. By combining various measures of volatility, volume, and price structure, the script can reveal confluences or disagreements among different elements. This multi-faceted approach can improve clarity, making it easier to decide when conditions line up favorably or when they conflict, thereby prompting caution.
Conclusion
In summary, the Uptrick: Reversal Matrix + aims to deliver a sweeping overview of market dynamics. It guides users from raw observations—like price and volume—to broader insights concerning trend stability, potential reversals, and overall liquidity. Its dual-table system allows for both fine-grained analysis and fast verdicts, catering to traders with varying degrees of time and attention. The numerous alerts and color coding schemes further round out its capacity for real-time monitoring and visually clear signal presentation.

Spent Output Profit Ratio (SOPR) Z-Score | [DeV]SOPR Z-Score
The Spent Output Profit Ratio (SOPR) is an advanced on-chain metric designed to provide deep insights into Bitcoin market dynamics by measuring the ratio between the combined USD value of all Bitcoin outputs spent on a given day and their combined USD value at the time of creation (typically, their purchase price). As a member of the Realized Profit/Loss family of metrics, SOPR offers a window into aggregate seller behavior, effectively representing the USD amount received by sellers divided by the USD amount they originally paid. This indicator enhances this metric by normalizing it into a Z-Score, enabling a statistically robust analysis of market sentiment relative to historical trends, augmented by a suite of customizable features for precision and visualization.
SOPR Settings -
Lookback Length (Default: 150 days): Determines the historical window for calculating the Z-Score’s mean and standard deviation. A longer lookback captures broader market cycles, providing a stable baseline for identifying extreme deviations, which is particularly valuable for long-term strategic analysis.
Smoothing Period (Default: 100 days): Applies an EMA to the raw SOPR, balancing responsiveness to recent changes with noise reduction. This extended smoothing period ensures the indicator focuses on sustained shifts in seller behavior, ideal for institutional-grade trend analysis.
Moving Average Settings -
MA Lookback Length (Default: 90 days): Sets the period for the Z-Score’s moving average, offering a shorter-term trend signal relative to the 150-day Z-Score lookback. This contrast enhances the ability to detect momentum shifts within the broader context.
MA Type (Default: EMA): Provides six moving average types, from the simple SMA to the volume-weighted VWMA. The default EMA strikes an optimal balance between smoothness and responsiveness, while alternatives like HMA (Hull) or VWMA (volume-weighted) allow for specialized applications, such as emphasizing recent price action or incorporating volume dynamics.
Display Settings -
Show Moving Average (Default: True): Toggles the visibility of the Z-Score MA plot, enabling users to focus solely on the raw Z-Score when preferred.
Show Background Colors (Default: True): Activates dynamic background shading, enhancing visual interpretation of market regimes.
Background Color Source (Default: SOPR): Allows users to tie the background color to either the SOPR Z-Score’s midline (reflecting adjustedZScore > 0) or the MA’s trend direction (zScoreMA > zScoreMA ). This dual-source option provides flexibility to align the visual context with the primary analytical focus.
Analytical Applications -
Bear Market Resistance: When the Z-Score approaches or exceeds zero (raw SOPR near 1), it often signals resistance as sellers rush to exit at break-even, a pattern historically observed during downtrends. A rising Z-Score MA crossing zero can confirm this pressure.
Bull Market Support: Conversely, a Z-Score dropping below zero in uptrends indicates reluctance to sell at a loss, forming support as sell pressure diminishes. The MA’s bullish coloring reinforces confirmation of renewed buying interest.
Extreme Deviations: Values significantly above or below zero highlight overbought or oversold conditions, respectively, offering opportunities for contrarian positioning when paired with other on-chain or price-based metrics.
Gap Fill DetectorThe Gap Fill Detector is a visual tool designed to highlight potential price imbalances caused by sudden, sharp movements following periods of low volatility or indecision. These events can often result in "gaps" or "voids" in price action that may later attract a return move — commonly referred to as a gap fill.
This indicator helps traders visually identify these unique conditions and monitor whether price revisits the origin of the move. It does so by marking the location of the price gap and providing a clean, color-coded interface to track price interaction with that level over time.
🔧 Key Features
🔸 Highlight Zones
When the script detects a potential gap-forming move, the background of the triggering candle is highlighted. These areas represent potential moments of price imbalance or sudden breakout behavior.
🔸 Gap Fill Line
A horizontal line is drawn from the close of the candle before the spike (representing the likely gap origin). This line acts as a reference for tracking whether price returns to "fill" the gap. The line is persistent but will automatically hide once price intersects it, or if another gap signal occurs.
🔸 Intelligent Auto-Hide Logic
Once the gap line has been touched by price or interrupted by a new spike event, it is removed from view. This keeps the chart clean and avoids clutter from outdated signals.
🔸 Dynamic Fill Shading
The area between the current price and the gap line is filled with a color-coded visual cue:
🟩 Green Fill: When price is above the gap line — a possible bullish continuation.
🟪 Purple Fill: When price is below the gap line — a potential retracement or bearish correction. Fill transparency is customizable to blend with your chart style.
🔸 Stability Zones (Optional)
Users can optionally enable shaded background zones to mark extended periods of price stagnation. These zones may help identify moments where the market is "winding up" before releasing energy in the form of a fast move.
⚙️ Customization Options
Base highlight color & transparency
Enable/disable stability zone highlighting
Adjustable gap fill area transparency
✅ Use Cases
This tool is ideal for:
Intraday traders seeking gap fills or mean reversion setups
Swing traders identifying sudden breakouts for future re-entry
Visual traders who want a clean, automated way to spot and manage price dislocations

PumpC Opening Range Breakout (ORB) Stretch RangePumpC ORB Stretch
The PumpC ORB Stretch is a volatility-based indicator that helps traders identify potential breakout zones by analyzing how price typically behaves around the open. This tool is inspired by concepts introduced by Toby Crabel in his well-known book “Day Trading with Short-Term Price Patterns and Opening Range Breakout.”
Rather than predicting market direction, this indicator highlights areas where price is likely to expand based on recent volatility. It is designed for traders who prefer dynamic, data-driven breakout levels over static support and resistance zones.
What Is the "Stretch"?
In Toby Crabel’s framework, the Stretch is the average of the smaller of two price moves:
The distance from the open to the high of the bar
The distance from the open to the low of the bar
This smaller value captures the “quiet side” of the candle and reflects recent price compression. Averaged over multiple periods (commonly 10 daily bars), it creates a baseline to assess how far price may move away from the open under typical market conditions.
How the Indicator Works
The PumpC ORB Stretch follows this process:
Uses a higher timeframe (such as daily) to calculate the open, high, and low.
For each bar, measures the smaller of the two distances: open to high or open to low.
Applies a moving average to the result over a user-defined number of bars (default is 10).
Multiplies the average stretch by customizable levels (e.g., 0.382, 1.0, 2.0).
Plots breakout levels above and below the open of the selected timeframe.
The result is a set of adaptive levels that expand or contract with market volatility.
Customization Options

Nasan Risk Score & Postion Size Estimator** THE RISK SCORE AND POSITION SIZE WILL ONLY BE CALCUTAED ON DIALY TIMEFRAME NOT IN OTHER TIMEFRAMES.
The typically accepted generic rule for risk management is not to risk more than 1% - 2 % of the capital in any given trade. It has its own basis however it does not take into account the stocks historic & current performance and does not consider the traders performance metrics (like win rate, profit ratio).
The Nasan Risk Score & Position size calculator takes into account all the listed parameters into account and estimates a Risk %. The position size is calculated using the estimated risk % , current ATR and a dynamically adjusted ATR multiple (ATR multiple is adjusted based on true range's volatility and stocks relative performance).
It follows a series of calculations:
Unadjusted Nasan Risk Score = (Min Risk)^a + b*
Min Risk = ( 5 year weighted avg Annual Stock Return - 5 year weighted avg Annual Bench Return) / 5 year weighted avg Annual Max ATR%
Max Risk = ( 5 year weighted avg Annual Stock Return - 5 year weighted avg Annual Bench Return) / 5 year weighted avg Annual Min ATR%
The min and max return is calculated based on stocks excess return in comparison to the Benchmark return and adjusted for volatility of the stock.
When a stock underperforms the benchmark, the default is, it does not calculate a position size , however if we opt it to calculate it will use 1% for Min Risk% and 2% for Max Risk% but all the other calculations and scaling remain the same.
Rationale:
Stocks outperforming their benchmark with lower volatility (ATR%) score higher.
A stock with high returns but excessive volatility gets penalized.
This ensures volatility-adjusted performance is emphasized rather than absolute returns.
Depending on the risk preference aggressive or conservative
Aggressive Risk Scaling: a = max (m, n) and b = min (m, n)
Conservative Scaling: a = min (m, n) and b = max (m, n)
where n = traders win % /100 and m = 1 - (1/ (1+ profit ratio))
A default of 50% is used for win factor and 1.5 for profit ratio.
Aggressive risk scaling increases exposure when the strategy's strongest factor is favorable.
Conservative risk scaling ensures more stable risk levels by focusing on the weaker factor.
The Unadjusted Nasan risk is score is further refined based on a tolerance factor which is based on the stocks maximum annual drawdown and the trader's maximum draw down tolerance.
Tolerance = /100
The correction factor (Tolerance) adjusts the risk score based on downside risk. Here's how it works conceptually:
The formula calculates how much the stock's actual drawdown exceeds your acceptable limit.
If stocks maximum Annual drawdown is smaller than Trader's maximum acceptable drawdown % , this results in a positive correction factor (indicating the drawdown is within your acceptable range and increases the unadjusted score.
If stocks maximum Annual drawdown exceeds Trader's maximum acceptable drawdown %, the correction factor will decrease (indicating that the downside risk is greater than what you are comfortable with, so it will adjust the risk exposure).
Once the Risk Score (numerically equal to Risk %) The position size is calculated based on the current market conditions.
Nasan Risk Score (Risk%) = Unadjusted Nasan Risk Score * Tolerance.
Position Size = (Capital * Risk% )/ ATR-Multiplier * ATR
The ATR Multiplier is dynamically adjusted based on the stocks recent relative performance and the variability of the true range itself. It would range between 1 - 3.5.
The multiplier widens when conditions are not favorable decreasing the position size and increases position size when conditions are favorable.
This Calculation /Estimate Does not give you a very different result than the arbitrary 1% - 2%. However it does fine tune the % based on sock performance, traders performance and tolerance level.
BB Session RangesBB Session Ranges Indicator
Overview
The Bender Bot Session Ranges indicator is a powerful tool for traders who want to visualize and analyze important market sessions throughout the trading day. This indicator identifies and tracks price ranges during specific time periods, helping you spot potential trading opportunities based on session breakouts, retests, and range comparisons.
Key Features
• Multiple Session Tracking: Monitor up to 6 different time-based ranges simultaneously (pre-configured for NY AM Open, NY PM Open, Lunch, Premarket, Midnight Open, and a custom session).
• Range Visualization: Clearly displays high and low boundaries for each session with customizable colors and line styles.
• Historical Comparison: Tracks and displays the average size of ranges over time, helping you identify when current ranges are larger or smaller than typical.
• Flexible Time Settings: Easily configure exact session times based on your trading schedule and preferred markets.
• Range Extension Options: Extend range boundaries by bars, days, or weeks to track the longer-term influence of session ranges.
• Sidecar Information Display: Optional labels show range details, including size, percentage of average, and dollar value.
How It Works
The indicator identifies specific time-based sessions (for example, the first 5 minutes of the NY market open) and tracks the high and low prices established during these periods. Once a session is complete, the range boundaries are plotted on your chart and can be extended for further analysis. The indicator calculates the current range size and compares it to historical averages, giving you context for the day’s market behavior.
Sidecar Functionality
The sidecar feature is a key aspect of this indicator that helps keep your charts clean and organized. Instead of cluttering your price action with labels and annotations directly on the ranges, the sidecar system:
• Creates a dedicated information panel offset from the price action.
• Connects to ranges with discreet connecting lines.
• Displays key statistics like range size, dollar value, and percentage of average.
• Can be positioned at custom distances from the main chart (measured in bars).
• Allows you to see important data without interfering with your price analysis.
• Can be completely disabled when you prefer minimal chart elements.
• Helps maintain visual clarity even when tracking multiple sessions simultaneously.
This design philosophy puts trader experience first by separating information display from price action analysis, giving you the best of both worlds: clean charts and detailed information.
Setup Guide
1. Choose Your Sessions: Enable or disable each of the six available ranges by setting the Max Ranges to Plot parameter (use 0 to disable a range).
2. Configure Session Times: Set exact times for each range using standard 24-hour format (for example, 0930-0935 for 9:30-9:35 AM).
3. Customize Display: Select colors, line widths, and information display options for each range.
4. Set Extension Parameters: Choose how far to extend range lines (by a number of bars, days, or weeks, or select Always for continuous extension).
5. Configure Sidecar Labels: Set the offset for the information displays (use 0 to disable sidecar labels entirely).
Trading Applications
• Identify potential support and resistance levels based on session highs and lows.
• Compare current session ranges to historical averages to gauge volatility.
• Look for breakouts from established session ranges.
• Use range extensions to anticipate potential price targets.
• Monitor multiple session ranges to identify pattern correlations.
Advanced Usage
The indicator includes fields that help you assess range size relative to past performance, including dollar value calculations. This can be particularly useful for position sizing and risk management when trading breakouts from these ranges.
Future Development
We’re actively working on expanding this indicator to include robust strategy and alert functionality. This will allow traders to:
• Backtest trading strategies based on session range breakouts and retests.
• Customize entry, exit, and risk management parameters.
• Receive real-time alerts when price interacts with significant range levels.
• Set conditional alerts based on range size compared to historical averages.
• Automate trading decisions based on your specific session-based criteria.
If these strategy and alert features would be valuable for your trading, please let us know in the comments. Your feedback directly influences our development priorities and helps us create tools that best serve the trading community.
Notes
• All times are based on the America/New_York timezone.
• The indicator dynamically adjusts to different timeframes, providing consistent results whether you’re viewing 1-minute or daily charts.
• Range calculations are based on the highs and lows established during the defined sessions.
Momentum Volatility Ratio | AlphaNattMomentum Volatility Ratio | AlphaNatt
The Momentum Volatility Ratio (MVR) is a sophisticated indicator that measures price impulses relative to an asset's inherent volatility. Unlike standard momentum indicators, MVR adapts to changing market conditions by normalizing momentum against historical volatility patterns, helping traders identify truly significant price movements.
Key Features:
• Adapts automatically to each asset's volatility profile
• Distinguishes between normal market noise and significant impulses
• Beautiful gradient visualization with modern Quantra-inspired aesthetics
• Responsive and clear signals with minimal lag
• Customizable sensitivity and appearance settings
How It Works:
The MVR calculates normalized price momentum and adjusts it by recent volatility metrics. This volatility-adjustment ensures the indicator remains consistent across different market environments and timeframes. When price momentum exceeds what would be expected given the asset's normal volatility, the indicator shows a significant impulse that traders can act upon.
Indicator Components:
• Cyan Histogram/Background - Represents positive momentum impulses
• Magenta Histogram/Background - Represents negative momentum impulses
• Neutral Bands - Define the transition between normal and significant impulses
• Gradient Background - Provides visual context for impulse strength
• Smooth Histogram - Shows the main impulse signal with a beautiful glow effect
Trading Signals:
1. Strong Positive Impulse - When cyan histogram bars grow significantly above the zero line
2. Strong Negative Impulse - When magenta histogram bars extend significantly below the zero line
3. Impulse Weakening - When histogram bars begin to shrink toward the zero line
4. Momentum Shift - When the histogram changes color, indicating a potential trend change
Customizable Parameters:
• Length - Base calculation period for momentum (default: 6)
• Volatility Lookback - Historical period for volatility calculation (default: 100)
• Neutral Bands Length - Smoothing period for neutral bands (default: 15)
• Neutral Bands Multiplier - Controls width of neutral bands (default: 0.5)
• Standard Deviation Lookback - Period for standard deviation calculation (default: 150)
• Standard Deviation Multiplier - Controls sensitivity of extreme bands (default: 2.5)
• Style - Choose between Classic, Modern, and Signal visualization modes
Best Practices:
• Use MVR alongside price action for confirmation
• Watch for extreme readings followed by momentum shifts
• Pay attention to divergences between price and MVR
• Consider longer-term trends when interpreting signals
• Use shorter settings for more frequent signals, longer settings for less noise
About the Opus Series:
The MVR indicator is part of the Opus series of premium-quality technical indicators designed with both functional excellence and aesthetic beauty. Opus indicators feature smooth gradients, crisp visualization, and powerful analytical capabilities to enhance your trading experience.

Correlation Coefficient TableThis Pine Script generates a dynamic table for analyzing how multiple assets correlate with a chosen benchmark (e.g., NZ50G). Users can input up to 12 asset symbols, customize the benchmark, and define the beta calculation periods (e.g., 15, 30, 90, 180 days). The script calculates Correlation values for each asset over these periods and computes the average beta for better insights.
The table includes:
Asset symbols: Displayed in the first row.
Correlation values: Calculated for each defined period and displayed in subsequent columns.
Average Correlation: Presented in the final column as an overall measure of correlation strength.
Color coding: Background colors indicate beta magnitude (green for high positive beta, yellow for near-neutral beta, red for negative beta).
ATR & PTR TableThe ATR & PTR Table Indicator displays a dynamic table that provides Average True Range (measures market volatility over 1D, 1W, and 1M timeframes), Price trading range (difference between the high and low prices over the same periods) & percentage of the typical range that has been traded. This indicator will help traders identify potential breakout zones and assess volatility across multiple timeframes.
This had been optimized to show ATR and PTR on every time frame. The (1D) represents ATR on whatever timeframe you are currently on.
Time Compression ZonesTime Compression Zones is an experimental indicator based on the idea that markets often "go silent" before making a strong move. During these moments, volatility drops, price action slows down, and energy accumulates beneath the surface — often followed by an explosive breakout.
The indicator identifies "time compression zones" — periods where the current volatility drops below a specific threshold relative to its moving average. These areas are highlighted on the chart and may serve as early signals of upcoming market expansion.
Time Compression Zones — это экспериментальный индикатор, основанный на идее, что рынок перед сильным движением часто "замирает". В такие моменты волатильность падает, движение становится вялым, но внутри копится энергия, которая вскоре может "взорваться" в виде импульса вверх или вниз.
This is not a directional indicator — it highlights pre-breakout conditions
Best used on 1H to 4H timeframes
Ideal for cryptocurrencies, gold, and futures
//RU
Индикатор определяет зоны "временного сжатия" — участки, где текущая волатильность падает ниже определённого порога относительно своей средней величины. Эти участки визуально выделяются на графике и могут указывать на приближающийся выход из "зоны накопления".
Индикатор не даёт направленного сигнала — он показывает периоды ожидания.
Лучше всего работает на 1H–4H таймфреймах

ATR SL and TP with Candle Freeze & DataWindowThis indicator uses the Average True Range (ATR) to automatically calculate your stop loss (SL) and take profit (TP) levels based on the current market volatility and your chosen multipliers. Here's how it works:
ATR Calculation:
The indicator computes the ATR, which measures the average market volatility over a set period. This value helps gauge how much the price typically moves.
SL and TP Determination:
Depending on whether you're in a long or short trade, the SL and TP are calculated relative to the current price:
For a long trade, the stop loss is set below the current price (by subtracting a multiple of the ATR) and the take profit is set above it (by adding a multiple of the ATR).
For a short trade, the calculations are reversed.
Candle Freeze Feature:
Once a new candle starts, the calculated SL and TP values are "frozen" for that candle. This means they remain constant during the candle's formation, preventing them from updating continuously as the price fluctuates. This can make it easier to plan your trades without the levels shifting mid-candle.
Data Window & Labels:
The SL and TP values are plotted on the chart as lines and displayed in labels for quick reference. Additionally, they appear in TradingView's Data Window, so you can easily copy the price numbers if needed.
Overall, the indicator is designed to help you manage your trades by setting dynamic, volatility-adjusted SL and TP levels that only update at the start of each new candle, aligning with your chosen timeframe. Let me know if you have any more questions or need further adjustments!
Composite Reversal IndicatorOverview
The "Composite Reversal Indicator" aggregates five technical signals to produce a composite score that ranges from -5 (strongly bearish) to +5 (strongly bullish). These signals come from:
Relative Strength Index (RSI)
Moving Average Convergence Divergence (MACD)
Accumulation/Distribution (A/D)
Volume relative to its moving average
Price proximity to support and resistance levels
Each signal contributes a value of +1 (bullish), -1 (bearish), or 0 (neutral) to the total score. The raw score is plotted as a histogram, and a smoothed version is plotted as a colored line to highlight trends.
Step-by-Step Explanation
1. Customizable Inputs
The indicator starts with user-defined inputs that allow traders to tweak its settings. These inputs include:
RSI: Length (e.g., 14), oversold level (e.g., 30), and overbought level (e.g., 70).
MACD: Fast length (e.g., 12), slow length (e.g., 26), and signal length (e.g., 9).
Volume: Moving average length (e.g., 20) and multipliers for high (e.g., 1.5) and low (e.g., 0.5) volume thresholds.
Price Levels: Period for support and resistance (e.g., 50) and proximity percentage (e.g., 2%).
Score Smoothing: Length for smoothing the score (e.g., 5).
These inputs make the indicator adaptable to different trading styles, assets, or timeframes.
2. Indicator Calculations
The script calculates five key indicators using the input parameters:
RSI: Measures momentum and identifies overbought or oversold conditions.
Formula: rsi = ta.rsi(close, rsi_length)
Example: With a length of 14, it analyzes the past 14 bars of closing prices.
MACD: Tracks trend and momentum using two exponential moving averages (EMAs).
Formula: = ta.macd(close, macd_fast, macd_slow, macd_signal)
Components: MACD line (fast EMA - slow EMA), signal line (EMA of MACD line).
Accumulation/Distribution (A/D): A volume-based indicator showing buying or selling pressure.
Formula: ad = ta.accdist
Reflects cumulative flow based on price and volume.
Volume Moving Average: A simple moving average (SMA) of trading volume.
Formula: vol_ma = ta.sma(volume, vol_ma_length)
Example: A 20-bar SMA smooths volume data.
Support and Resistance Levels: Key price levels based on historical lows and highs.
Formulas:
support = ta.lowest(low, price_level_period)
resistance = ta.highest(high, price_level_period)
Example: Over 50 bars, it finds the lowest low and highest high.
These calculations provide the raw data for generating signals.
3. Signal Generation
Each indicator produces a signal based on specific conditions:
RSI Signal:
+1: RSI < oversold level (e.g., < 30) → potential bullish reversal.
-1: RSI > overbought level (e.g., > 70) → potential bearish reversal.
0: Otherwise.
Logic: Extreme RSI values suggest price may reverse.
MACD Signal:
+1: MACD line > signal line → bullish momentum.
-1: MACD line < signal line → bearish momentum.
0: Equal.
Logic: Crossovers indicate trend shifts.
A/D Signal:
+1: Current A/D > previous A/D → accumulation (bullish).
-1: Current A/D < previous A/D → distribution (bearish).
0: Unchanged.
Logic: Rising A/D shows buying pressure.
Volume Signal:
+1: Volume > high threshold (e.g., 1.5 × volume MA) → strong activity (bullish).
-1: Volume < low threshold (e.g., 0.5 × volume MA) → weak activity (bearish).
0: Otherwise.
Logic: Volume spikes often confirm reversals.
Price Signal:
+1: Close near support (within proximity %, e.g., 2%) → potential bounce.
-1: Close near resistance (within proximity %) → potential rejection.
0: Otherwise.
Logic: Price near key levels signals reversal zones.
4. Composite Score
The raw composite score is the sum of the five signals:
Formula: score = rsi_signal + macd_signal + ad_signal + vol_signal + price_signal
Range: -5 (all signals bearish) to +5 (all signals bullish).
Purpose: Combines multiple perspectives into one number.
5. Smoothed Score
A smoothed version of the score reduces noise:
Formula: score_ma = ta.sma(score, score_ma_length)
Example: With a length of 5, it averages the score over 5 bars.
Purpose: Highlights the trend rather than short-term fluctuations.
6. Visualization
The indicator plots two elements:
Raw Score: A gray histogram showing the composite score per bar.
Style: plot.style_histogram
Color: Gray.
Smoothed Score: A line that changes color:
Green: Score > 0 (bullish).
Red: Score < 0 (bearish).
Gray: Score = 0 (neutral).
Style: plot.style_line, thicker line (e.g., linewidth=2).
These visuals make it easy to spot potential reversals.
How It Works Together
The indicator combines signals from:
RSI: Momentum extremes.
MACD: Trend shifts.
A/D: Buying/selling pressure.
Volume: Confirmation of moves.
Price Levels: Key reversal zones.
By summing these into a composite score, it filters out noise and provides a unified signal. A high positive score (e.g., +3 to +5) suggests a bullish reversal, while a low negative score (e.g., -3 to -5) suggests a bearish reversal. The smoothed score helps traders focus on the trend.
Practical Use
Bullish Reversal: Smoothed score is green and rising → look for buying opportunities.
Bearish Reversal: Smoothed score is red and falling → consider selling or shorting.
Neutral: Score near 0 → wait for clearer signals.
Traders can adjust inputs to suit their strategy, making it versatile for stocks, forex, or crypto.
Pivot S/R with Volatility Filter## *📌 Indicator Purpose*
This indicator identifies *key support/resistance levels* using pivot points while also:
✅ Detecting *high-volume liquidity traps* (stop hunts)
✅ Filtering insignificant pivots via *ATR (Average True Range) volatility*
✅ Tracking *test counts and breakouts* to measure level strength
---
## *⚙ SETTINGS – Detailed Breakdown*
### *1️⃣ ◆ General Settings*
#### *🔹 Pivot Length*
- *Purpose:* Determines how many bars to analyze when identifying pivots.
- *Usage:*
- *Low values (5-20):* More pivots, better for scalping.
- *High values (50-200):* Fewer but stronger levels for swing trading.
- *Example:*
- Pivot Length = 50 → Only the most significant highs/lows over 50 bars are marked.
#### *🔹 Test Threshold (Max Test Count)*
- *Purpose:* Sets how many times a level can be tested before being invalidated.
- *Example:*
- Test Threshold = 3 → After 3 tests, the level is ignored (likely to break).
#### *🔹 Zone Range*
- *Purpose:* Creates a price buffer around pivots (±0.001 by default).
- *Why?* Markets often respect "zones" rather than exact prices.
---
### *2️⃣ ◆ Volatility Filter (ATR)*
#### *🔹 ATR Period*
- *Purpose:* Smoothing period for Average True Range calculation.
- *Default:* 14 (standard for volatility measurement).
#### *🔹 ATR Multiplier (Min Move)*
- *Purpose:* Requires pivots to show *meaningful price movement*.
- *Formula:* Min Move = ATR × Multiplier
- *Example:*
- ATR = 10 pips, Multiplier = 1.5 → Only pivots with *15+ pip swings* are valid.
#### *🔹 Show ATR Filter Info*
- Displays current ATR and minimum move requirements on the chart.
---
### *3️⃣ ◆ Volume Analysis*
#### *🔹 Volume Change Threshold (%)*
- *Purpose:* Filters for *unusual volume spikes* (institutional activity).

#### *🔹 Volume MA Period*
- *Purpose:* Lookback period for "normal" volume calculation.
---
### *4️⃣ ◆ Wick Analysis*
#### *🔹 Wick Length Threshold (Ratio)*
- *Purpose:* Ensures rejection candles have *long wicks* (strong reversals).
- *Formula:* Wick Ratio = (Upper Wick + Lower Wick) / Candle Range
- *Example:*
- Threshold = 0.6 → 60% of the candle must be wicks.
#### *🔹 Min Wick Size (ATR %)*
- *Purpose:* Filters out small wicks in volatile markets.
- *Example:*
- ATR = 20 pips, MinWickSize = 1% → Wicks under *0.2 pips* are ignored.
---
### *5️⃣ ◆ Display Settings*
- *Show Zones:* Toggles support/resistance shaded areas.
- *Show Traps:* Highlights liquidity traps (▲/▼ symbols).
- *Show Tests:* Displays how many times levels were tested.
- *Zone Transparency:* Adjusts opacity of zones.

Price Extreme BandsPrice Extreme Bands Description
This indicator calculates and displays Price Extreme Bands based on an Exponential Moving Average (EMA) and True Range Average True Range (TR ATR). It utilizes a custom "Super Smoother" function to smooth the bands, providing a clearer representation of potential price extremes without sacrificing accuracy.
Usage
Built for specifically for intraday timeframes, this indicator identifies short term price extremes and volatility ranges. Traders can observe when price moves towards the outer bands, suggesting strong momentum or potential overbought/oversold conditions. The filled zones highlight areas of increased volatility which can used as exit criteria for a trade, possible reversal points in ranging markets or price ranges where price momentum could slow in trending markets.
Key Features
Length Input: Controls the length of the EMA and TR ATR calculations.
Multiplier Inputs: Uses two fixed multipliers (1.71 and 2.50) to create bands.
Super Smoother: Applies a custom smoothing function to the bands for reduced noise.
Fill Zones: Fills the areas between the inner and outer bands to highlight potential volatility ranges.
Calculation:
1. EMA (Basis): Calculates the Exponential Moving Average of the selected source.
2. TR ATR: Calculates the True Range and then smoothes it using RMA (Rolling Moving Average).
3. Bands: Calculates upper and lower bands using the EMA and ATR, with multipliers of 1.71 and 2.50.
4. Super Smoother: Applies a smoothing function to the calculated bands.
Visuals:
Basis Line: Plots the EMA (basis) (invisible by default).
Inner Bands (1.71 Multiplier): Plots the smoothed bands with a distinct color (e.g., orange) (invisible by default).
Outer Bands (2.50 Multiplier): Plots the smoothed bands with a different color (e.g., purple) (invisible by default).
Fill Zones: Fills the region between the inner and outer upper bands and the inner and outer lower bands with a translucent color (e.g. light blue).
// Note: The plot lines are invisible by default. To view the basis, upper and lower band lines, adjust the visibility settings in the indicator's settings.

Columns represent the five BBMA setups: EXT Buy, EXT Sell, CSD, CSM Buy, CSM Sell, RE Buy, RE Sell, and MHV.
Interpreting the Signals
1. EXT (Extreme) Setup
EXT Buy (Green Arrow):
Condition: Price touches or breaks below the BB lower band, closes above it, with high ATR volatility, strong volume, and additional confirmations (e.g., hammer candle, RSI oversold, MACD bullish, MAHI/MALO crossover, or bullish divergence).
Interpretation: A potential reversal buy signal. Look for confirmation in the subplot table (LTF and HTF rows).
Action: Consider a long position if LTF and HTF confirm (✔ in both rows). Use the BB middle or upper band as a target.
EXT Sell (Red Arrow):
Condition: Price touches or breaks above the BB upper band, closes below it, with high ATR volatility, strong volume, and additional confirmations (e.g., shooting star candle, RSI overbought, MACD bearish, MAHI/MALO crossunder, or bearish divergence).
Interpretation: A potential reversal sell signal.
Action: Consider a short position if LTF and HTF confirm. Use the BB middle or lower band as a target.
2. CSD (Consolidation) Setup
CSD (Yellow Diamond):
Condition: BB width is narrow (below its SMA), low ATR volatility, small candles, and no MAHI/MALO crossovers.
Interpretation: The market is consolidating, often preceding a breakout (e.g., MHV).
Action: Avoid trading during CSD unless preparing for an MHV breakout. Monitor the subplot for "Upcoming" MHV signals.
3. CSM (Continuation Setup Movement)
CSM Buy (Teal Arrow):
Condition: Price is above the BB middle, MAHI crossover, MALO crossover or MACD bullish, price above EMA 50, with additional confirmations (e.g., bullish engulfing or MACD bullish).
Interpretation: A continuation buy signal in an uptrend.
Action: Enter a long position if LTF and HTF confirm. Target the BB upper band or recent swing highs.
CSM Sell (Maroon Arrow):
Condition: Price is below the BB middle, MAHI crossunder, MALO crossunder or MACD bearish, price below EMA 50, with additional confirmations (e.g., bearish engulfing or MACD bearish).
Interpretation: A continuation sell signal in a downtrend.
Action: Enter a short position if LTF and HTF confirm. Target the BB lower band or recent swing lows.
4. RE (Re-Entry) Setup
RE Buy (Aqua Arrow):
Condition: Price is between the BB lower and middle bands, MAHI crossover, MALO crossover or MACD bullish, price above EMA 50, with additional confirmations (e.g., bullish engulfing or MACD bullish).
Interpretation: A re-entry buy signal after a pullback in an uptrend.
Action: Enter a long position if LTF and HTF confirm. Target the BB middle or upper band.
RE Sell (Fuchsia Arrow):
Condition: Price is between the BB upper and middle bands, MAHI crossunder, MALO crossunder or MACD bearish, price below EMA 50, with additional confirmations (e.g., bearish engulfing or MACD bearish).
Interpretation: A re-entry sell signal after a pullback in a downtrend.
Action: Enter a short position if LTF and HTF confirm. Target the BB middle or lower band.
5. MHV (Market High Volatility) Setup
MHV (Orange Label):
Condition: Follows a CSD signal, with expanding BB width, high ATR volatility, strong volume, and MAHI/MALO crossover or crossunder.
Interpretation: A breakout signal after consolidation, indicating high volatility and potential for a strong move.
Action: Trade in the direction of the breakout (e.g., buy if MAHI crossover, sell if MAHI crossunder). Confirm with LTF and HTF. Target significant levels like recent swing highs/lows.
6. Multi-Timeframe Confirmation
LTF Confirmation: A checkmark (✔) in the LTF row indicates the signal is also present on the lower timeframe (e.g., 5m). This adds confidence to the trade.
HTF Confirmation: A checkmark (✔) in the HTF row indicates alignment with the higher timeframe trend (e.g., 4h). This confirms the signal's strength.
Strongest Signals: Look for signals with both LTF and HTF confirmations (✔ in both rows). These have the highest probability of success.
7. Upcoming Signals
The CTF row in the subplot table may show "Upcoming" for a setup (e.g., EXT Buy: Upcoming). This indicates the setup is forming but not yet confirmed.
Action: Monitor these setups closely. They may turn "Active" on the next candle if conditions are met.
Trading Tips
Trend Alignment: Use the EMA 50 and market structure (is_uptrend) to ensure trades align with the overall trend. For example, prioritize CSM Buy signals in an uptrend.
Risk Management:
Set stop-losses below recent swing lows (for buys) or above recent swing highs (for sells).
Use the BB middle or opposite band as a target for most setups.
Avoid Overtrading: Focus on signals with LTF and HTF confirmations to filter out noise.
Timeframe Selection:
Scalping: Use 1m or 5m CTF with 1m LTF and 15m HTF.
Day Trading: Use 15m or 1h CTF with 5m LTF and 4h HTF.
Swing Trading: Use 4h or 1D CTF with 1h LTF and 1D HTF.
Backtesting: Test the indicator on historical data for your chosen asset and timeframe to understand its performance.

Limitations
Lagging Indicators: The indicator uses moving averages and other lagging tools, which may delay signals in fast-moving markets.
False Signals: Like all indicators, it can produce false signals, especially in choppy markets. Use LTF/HTF confirmations to filter trades.
Timeframe Dependency: Ensure your CTF, LTF, and HTF are properly aligned to avoid conflicting signals.
