Volatility IndicatorThe volatility indicator presented here is based on multiple volatility indices that reflect the market’s expectation of future price fluctuations across different asset classes, including equities, commodities, and currencies. These indices serve as valuable tools for traders and analysts seeking to anticipate potential market movements, as volatility is a key factor influencing asset prices and market dynamics (Bollerslev, 1986).
Volatility, defined as the magnitude of price changes, is often regarded as a measure of market uncertainty or risk. Financial markets exhibit periods of heightened volatility that may precede significant price movements, whether upward or downward (Christoffersen, 1998). The indicator presented in this script tracks several key volatility indices, including the VIX (S&P 500), GVZ (Gold), OVX (Crude Oil), and others, to help identify periods of increased uncertainty that could signal potential market turning points.
Volatility Indices and Their Relevance
Volatility indices like the VIX are considered “fear gauges” as they reflect the market’s expectation of future volatility derived from the pricing of options. A rising VIX typically signals increasing investor uncertainty and fear, which often precedes market corrections or significant price movements. In contrast, a falling VIX may suggest complacency or confidence in continued market stability (Whaley, 2000).
The other volatility indices incorporated in the indicator script, such as the GVZ (Gold Volatility Index) and OVX (Oil Volatility Index), capture the market’s perception of volatility in specific asset classes. For instance, GVZ reflects market expectations for volatility in the gold market, which can be influenced by factors such as geopolitical instability, inflation expectations, and changes in investor sentiment toward safe-haven assets. Similarly, OVX tracks the implied volatility of crude oil options, which is a crucial factor for predicting price movements in energy markets, often driven by geopolitical events, OPEC decisions, and supply-demand imbalances (Pindyck, 2004).
Using the Indicator to Identify Market Movements
The volatility indicator alerts traders when specific volatility indices exceed a defined threshold, which may signal a change in market sentiment or an upcoming price movement. These thresholds, set by the user, are typically based on historical levels of volatility that have preceded significant market changes. When a volatility index exceeds this threshold, it suggests that market participants expect greater uncertainty, which often correlates with increased price volatility and the possibility of a trend reversal.
For example, if the VIX exceeds a pre-determined level (e.g., 30), it could indicate that investors are anticipating heightened volatility in the equity markets, potentially signaling a downturn or correction in the broader market. On the other hand, if the OVX rises significantly, it could point to an upcoming sharp movement in crude oil prices, driven by changing market expectations about supply, demand, or geopolitical risks (Geman, 2005).
Practical Application
To effectively use this volatility indicator in market analysis, traders should monitor the alert signals generated when any of the volatility indices surpass their thresholds. This can be used to identify periods of market uncertainty or potential market turning points across different sectors, including equities, commodities, and currencies. The indicator can help traders prepare for increased price movements, adjust their risk management strategies, or even take advantage of anticipated price swings through options trading or volatility-based strategies (Black & Scholes, 1973).
Traders may also use this indicator in conjunction with other technical analysis tools to validate the potential for significant market movements. For example, if the VIX exceeds its threshold and the market is simultaneously approaching a critical technical support or resistance level, the trader might consider entering a position that capitalizes on the anticipated price breakout or reversal.
Conclusion
This volatility indicator is a robust tool for identifying market conditions that are conducive to significant price movements. By tracking the behavior of key volatility indices, traders can gain insights into the market’s expectations of future price fluctuations, enabling them to make more informed decisions regarding market entries and exits. Understanding and monitoring volatility can be particularly valuable during times of heightened uncertainty, as changes in volatility often precede substantial shifts in market direction (French et al., 1987).

Follow Through Day (FTD) + Sweep [TrendX_]The Follow Through Day (FTD) + Sweep indicator is a Trend-following tool mixing William O'Neil's original FTD concept and Liquidity concept. This indicator helps you identify potential subsequent bullish trends with greater precision by combining volume analysis, price action, and liquidity concepts.
💎 FEATURES
Follow Through Day Candle (FTD Candle)
The FTD, pioneered by William O'Neil, serves as a reliable signal for identifying the beginning of new bull markets. It's particularly valuable because it combines multiple market factors - price action, volume, and timing - to confirm genuine market reversals rather than temporary bounces.
The power of the FTD lies in its ability to distinguish between ordinary market fluctuations and significant trend changes. By requiring specific criteria to be met across multiple sessions, it helps filter out false signals and identifies high-probability reversal points where institutional investors are likely beginning to accumulate positions.
Sweep Area
The Sweep area feature enhances the traditional FTD concept by incorporating modern liquidity analysis. This overlay identifies zones where large market participants are likely to trigger stop losses before continuing the trend. These areas often represent optimal entry points for traders looking to join the new uptrend with reduced risk.
🔎 BREAKDOWN
FTD Candle
The FTD formation process occurs in two distinct phases: Setup and Completion.
Setup Phase
Strong Market Decline
The market must first experience a significant downtrend
This selling pressure helps clear out weak hands and creates oversold conditions
The decline creates the potential energy for a powerful reversal
First Recovery Session
Marks the initial sign of buying pressure emerging
Often characterized by a strong reversal candle
Represents the first indication that selling pressure may be exhausting
Recovery Confirmation
The second and third days must maintain prices above the new pivot low
This consolidation period helps confirm the validity of the initial bounce
Shows that sellers are no longer in control of price action
Completion Phase:
Supply Test Session
Low volume indicates diminishing selling pressure
Price remains above the pivot low
Creates the foundation for institutional buyers to begin accumulating
Breakout Day
Price increase exceeds average profit of bullish candles
Volume increases by at least 15% compared to previous session
Shows strong institutional commitment to the new uptrend
Timing Window
Must occur between the 4th and 8th candle after First Recovery Session
This specific timing helps confirm the sustainability of the reversal
Based on O'Neil's research of historical market bottoms
FTD Sweep
The Post-FTD Phase introduces the Sweep concept, which is crucial for understanding how large market participants operate. This feature leverages the liquidity concept because institutional traders often need to trigger stop losses to accumulate larger positions at better prices. This helps:
Create liquidity pools for large position entries
Shake out weak hands before continuing the trend
Test the strength of the new trend by absorbing selling pressure
⚙️ USAGE
Sweep + TP & SL Strategy
Example: BTCUSDT (1D) - Replay back to 9th November 2024
After an FTD candle forms, traders can adopt a systematic approach to enhance their trading strategy. First, they should determine the swing range and convert the post-FTD zone into concrete stop loss and take profit levels, which are based on the price action during the FTD formation. Next, traders should wait for a sweep formation, as this indicates that institutional players are accumulating positions. A quick price rejection from the sweep level should be observed before executing an entry.
The reasoning behind this strategy is rooted in market microstructure. By waiting for the sweep, traders position themselves alongside institutional players who need to build large positions without causing adverse price movement. The sweep creates the liquidity they need, and the subsequent move often represents the true trend continuation.
DISCLAIMER
This indicator is not financial advice, it can only help traders make better decisions. There are many factors and uncertainties that can affect the outcome of any endeavor, and no one can guarantee or predict with certainty what will occur. Therefore, one should always exercise caution and judgment when making decisions based on past performance.
ChrismtasMerry Christmas and Happy New Year! This magical time of year brings us together with loved ones, fills our hearts with joy, and offers us a chance to reflect on the past year and look forward to the future.
Candle % Close with Bullish/Bearish EvaluationI created the indicator to more quickly define the polarity of candles. For a large number of candles, it is straightforward to determine whether a candle is bullish or bearish. However, candles with long wicks often appear, making it uncertain whether the candle is bullish or bearish from a price action perspective. It is not a rule that a red candle is bearish and a green candle is bullish.
From a more advanced price action standpoint, how these candles close is important. Therefore, I created the 'Percent range' input. By default, it is set to 50% (high-low)/2. This way, the indicator precisely determines 50% of the candle's entire range. This allows us to determine whether a bearish candle truly closed below 50% of its range. If not, such a candle is considered bullish, even if it is a negative candle. The same applies to bullish candles, but conversely. If a positive candle closes below 50% of its range, from a price action perspective, it is considered a bearish candle.
Since in price action it is common for the price to return to 50% of the previous candle and, after filling, to continue in the established trend, I added the line extension option. Whatever high value you enter, the line extension follows the current candle. This option works only when the stop line checkbox is enabled. This way, you can plot 50% of the candle's range that the market has historically not returned to due to a strong trend. Often, this line is plotted on a candle where there is also an FVG, which can help you more easily find a point of interest.
Stop line extension : Ensures the interruption of line plotting when the candle is touched by the body or wick.
Dynamic Risk-Adjusted Performance Ratios with TableWith this indicator, you have everything you need to monitor and compare the Sharpe ratio, Sortino ratio, and Omega ratio across multiple assets—all in one place. This tool is designed to help save time and improve efficiency by letting you track up to 15 assets simultaneously in a fully customizable table. You can adjust the lookback period to fit your trading strategy and get a clearer picture of how your assets perform over time. Instead of switching between charts, this indicator puts all the critical information you need at your fingertips.
Sharpe Ratio -
Helps evaluate the overall efficiency of investments by comparing the average return to the total risk (measured by the standard deviation of all returns). Essentially, it tells you how much excess return you’re getting for each unit of risk you’re taking. A higher Sharpe ratio means you’re getting better risk-adjusted performance—something you’ll want to aim for in your portfolio.
Sortino Ratio -
Goes a step further by focusing only on downside risk—because let’s face it, no one worries about positive volatility. This ratio is calculated by dividing the average return by the standard deviation of only the negative returns. Perfect for those concerned about avoiding losses rather than chasing extreme gains. It gives you a sharper view of how well your assets are performing relative to the risks you’re trying to avoid.
Omega Ratio -
Offers a unique perspective by comparing the sum of positive returns to the absolute sum of negative returns. It’s a straightforward way to see if your wins outweigh your losses. A higher Omega ratio means your positive returns significantly exceed the downside, which is exactly what you want when building a strong, reliable portfolio.
This indicator is perfect for traders who want to streamline their decision-making process and gain an edge. Bringing together these three critical ratios into a single user-defined table makes it easy to compare and rank assets at a glance. Whether optimizing a portfolio or looking for the best opportunities, this tool helps you stay ahead by focusing on risk-adjusted returns. The customizable lookback period lets you tailor the analysis to fit your unique trading approach, giving you insights that align with your goals. If you’re serious about making data-driven decisions and improving your trading outcomes, this indicator is a game-changer for your toolkit.

Trident FinderIntroduction to the Trident Finder
The Trident Finder is a Pine Script indicator that identifies unique bullish and bearish patterns called Tridents. These patterns are based on specific relationships between consecutive candles, combined with a simple moving average (SMA) filter for added precision. By spotting these patterns, traders can potentially identify high-probability reversal points or trend continuations.
Core Logic
The indicator identifies two patterns:
Bullish Trident
A bullish Trident forms when:
Candle (two candles back) has its High-Low range entirely above Candle (the preceding candle).
Candle (the current candle) has its Open-High-Low-Close (OHLC) above the Low of Candle .
Candle closes higher than it opens and higher than Candle ’s close.
Candle closes below the SMA, indicating a potential upward breakout against the trend.
Bearish Trident
A bearish Trident forms when:
Candle has its High-Low range entirely below Candle .
Candle has its OHLC below the High of Candle .
Candle closes lower than it opens and lower than Candle ’s close.
Candle closes above the SMA, indicating a potential downward breakout against the trend.
Visual Representation
Bullish Tridents are marked with green "Up" labels below the candle.
Bearish Tridents are marked with red "Down" labels above the candle.
The SMA is plotted as a maroon line to serve as a filter for the Trident patterns.
Support Resistance Major/Minor [TradingFinder] Market Structure🔵 Introduction
Support and resistance levels are key concepts in technical analysis, serving as critical points where prices pause or reverse due to the interaction of supply and demand. These foundational elements in price action and classical technical analysis assist traders in understanding market behavior and making better trading decisions.
Support levels are zones where demand is strong enough to prevent further price declines, while resistance levels act as barriers that hinder price increases.
Support and resistance levels are divided into two main types: static and dynamic. Static levels are fixed horizontal lines on charts, formed based on historical price points, and are crucial due to repeated price reactions in these areas.
Dynamic levels, on the other hand, move with market trends and are often identified using tools like moving averages and trendlines. These levels are particularly useful for analyzing dynamic trends and identifying potential reversal points in financial markets.
The importance of support and resistance in technical analysis lies in their ability to pinpoint price reversal or continuation points. Professional traders use these levels to determine optimal entry and exit points and combine them with tools such as Fibonacci retracements or moving averages for precise strategies.
Detailed analysis of price behavior at these levels provides insights into trend strength and the likelihood of price breaks or reversals. By understanding these concepts, technical analysts can forecast future price movements and optimize their trading decisions using tools such as indicators and price action. Support and resistance levels, as a cornerstone of technical analysis, form the foundation for many trading strategies.
🔵 How to Use
The Static Support and Resistance Indicator is a vital tool for identifying significant price zones in financial markets.

WMA Killer Ratio Analysis | JeffreyTimmermansWMA Killer Ratio Analysis
The WMA Killer Ratio Analysis is a highly responsive trend-following indicator designed to deliver quick and actionable insights on the ETHBTC ratio. By utilizing advanced smoothing methods and normalized thresholds, this tool efficiently identifies market trends. Let’s dive into the details:
Core Mechanics
1. Smoothing with Standard Deviations
The WMA Killer Ratio Analysis begins by smoothing source price data using standard deviations, which measure the typical variance in price movements. This creates dynamic deviation levels:
Upper Deviation: Marks the high boundary, indicating potential overbought conditions.
Lower Deviation: Marks the low boundary, signaling potential oversold conditions.
These levels are integrated with the Weighted Moving Average (WMA), filtering out market noise and honing in on significant price shifts.
2. Weighted WMA Bands
The WMA is further refined with dynamic weighting:
Upper Weight: Expands the WMA, creating an Upper Band to capture extreme price highs.
Lower Weight: Compresses the WMA, forming a Lower Band to reflect price lows.
This adaptive dual-weighting system highlights potential areas for trend reversals or continuations with precision.
3. Normalized WMA (NWMA) Analysis
The Normalized WMA adds a deeper layer of trend evaluation: It calculates the percentage change between the source price and its smoothed average. Positive NWMA values suggest overbought conditions, while negative NWMA values point to oversold conditions.
Traders can customize long (buy) and short (sell) thresholds to align signal sensitivity with their strategy and market conditions.
Signal Logic
Buy (Long) Signals: Triggered when the price remains above the lower deviation level and the NWMA crosses above the long threshold. Indicates a bullish trend and potential upward momentum.
Sell (Short) Signals: Triggered when the price dips below the upper deviation level and the NWMA falls beneath the short threshold. Suggests bearish momentum and a potential downward trend.
Note: The WMA Killer Ratio Analysis is most effective when paired with other forms of analysis, such as volume, higher time-frame trends, or fundamental data.
Visual Enhancements
The WMA Killer Ratio Analysis emphasizes usability with clear and dynamic plotting features:
1. Color-Coded Trend Indicators: The indicator changes color dynamically to represent trend direction. Users can customize colors to suit specific trading pairs (e.g., ETHBTC, SOLBTC).
2. Threshold Markers: Dashed horizontal lines represent long and short thresholds, giving traders a visual reference for signal levels.
3. Deviation Bands with Fill Areas: Upper and Lower Bands are plotted around the WMA. Shaded regions highlight deviation zones, making trend boundaries easier to spot.
4. Signal Arrows and Bar Coloring: Arrows or triangles appear on the chart to mark potential buy (upward) or sell (downward) points. Candlesticks are color-coded based on the prevailing trend, allowing traders to interpret the market direction at a glance.
Customization Options
Adjustable Thresholds: Tailor the sensitivity of long and short signals to your strategy.
Dynamic Weighting: Modify upper and lower band weights to adapt the WMA to varying market conditions.
Source Selection: Choose the preferred input for price data smoothing, such as closing price or an average (hl2).
The WMA Killer Ratio Analysis combines rigorous mathematical analysis with intuitive visual features, providing traders with a reliable way to identify trends and make data-driven decisions. While it excels at detecting key market shifts, its effectiveness increases when integrated into a broader trading strategy.

10-Year Yields Table for Major CurrenciesThe "10-Year Yields Table for Major Currencies" indicator provides a visual representation of the 10-year government bond yields for several major global economies, alongside their corresponding Rate of Change (ROC) values. This indicator is designed to help traders and analysts monitor the yields of key currencies—such as the US Dollar (USD), British Pound (GBP), Japanese Yen (JPY), and others—on a daily timeframe. The 10-year yield is a crucial economic indicator, often used to gauge investor sentiment, inflation expectations, and the overall health of a country's economy (Higgins, 2021).
Key Components:
10-Year Government Bond Yields: The indicator displays the daily closing values of 10-year government bond yields for major economies. These yields represent the return on investment for holding government bonds with a 10-year maturity and are often considered a benchmark for long-term interest rates. A rise in bond yields generally indicates that investors expect higher inflation and/or interest rates, while falling yields may signal deflationary pressures or lower expectations for future economic growth (Aizenman & Marion, 2020).
Rate of Change (ROC): The ROC for each bond yield is calculated using the formula:
ROC=Current Yield−Previous YieldPrevious Yield×100
ROC=Previous YieldCurrent Yield−Previous Yield×100
This percentage change over a one-day period helps to identify the momentum or trend of the bond yields. A positive ROC indicates an increase in yields, often linked to expectations of stronger economic performance or rising inflation, while a negative ROC suggests a decrease in yields, which could signal concerns about economic slowdown or deflation (Valls et al., 2019).
Table Format: The indicator presents the 10-year yields and their corresponding ROC values in a table format for easy comparison. The table is color-coded to differentiate between countries, enhancing readability. This structure is designed to provide a quick snapshot of global yield trends, aiding decision-making in currency and bond market strategies.
Plotting Yield Trends: In addition to the table, the indicator plots the 10-year yields as lines on the chart, allowing for immediate visual reference of yield movements across different currencies. The plotted lines provide a dynamic view of the yield curve, which is a vital tool for economic analysis and forecasting (Campbell et al., 2017).
Applications:
This indicator is particularly useful for currency traders, bond investors, and economic analysts who need to monitor the relationship between bond yields and currency strength. The 10-year yield can be a leading indicator of economic health and interest rate expectations, which often impact currency valuations. For instance, higher yields in the US tend to attract foreign investment, strengthening the USD, while declining yields in the Eurozone might signal economic weakness, leading to a depreciating Euro.
Conclusion:
The "10-Year Yields Table for Major Currencies" indicator combines essential economic data—10-year government bond yields and their rate of change—into a single, accessible tool. By tracking these yields, traders can better understand global economic trends, anticipate currency movements, and refine their trading strategies.

Z-Score + Valuation BTC | JeffreyTimmermansBTC Valuation Indicator with Z-Score Analysis
The BTC Valuation Indicator is a sophisticated tool designed to offer traders and analysts a deeper understanding of Bitcoin’s market valuation, empowering them to make more informed decisions. By utilizing a combination of key moving averages and a logarithmic trendline, along with advanced statistical analysis through the Z-Score Indicator, this tool provides a comprehensive view of Bitcoin’s potential undervaluation or overvaluation.
Key Features:
200MA/P (200-Day Moving Average to Price Ratio)
This component compares Bitcoin’s current price to its 200-day Simple Moving Average (SMA), offering insights into the long-term trend. A positive value signals a potential undervaluation of Bitcoin, while a negative value may indicate overvaluation.
Use case: Identifying long-term price trends to forecast potential buying or selling opportunities.
50MA/P (50-Day Moving Average to Price Ratio)
This ratio focuses on the short-term dynamics of Bitcoin’s price, comparing it to its 50-day SMA. It helps traders detect bullish or bearish trends in the immediate future.
Use case: Spotting short-term market movements and adjusting strategies accordingly.
LTL/P (Logarithmic TrendLine to Price Ratio)
This ratio incorporates Bitcoin’s historical age, using a logarithmic trendline to measure price movements against long-term expectations. A divergence from this trendline can signal potential overvaluation or undervaluation, assisting in aligning trading decisions with broader market trends.
Use case: Evaluating the overall trajectory of Bitcoin’s value over time and predicting significant market shifts.
Z-Score Indicator Integration:
The BTC Valuation Indicator utilizes the Z-Score, a powerful statistical measure, to assess how far each of the aforementioned ratios deviates from the mean. Z-Scores help standardize these ratios, allowing traders to gauge the severity of under or overvaluation compared to historical averages.
What is a Z-Score?
A Z-score measures how far a data point is from the mean in terms of standard deviations. A Z-score of 0 indicates the value is exactly at the mean, while a positive or negative score shows how much the value deviates from it. A higher Z-score signals a more significant deviation, potentially pointing to a market anomaly, while a Z-score near 0 indicates normal conditions.
For instance:
A Z-score above +2 indicates that Bitcoin may be overvalued, with the likelihood of a market correction or reversion to the mean.
A Z-score below -2 signals possible undervaluation, suggesting an upward trend may be on the horizon.
Z-Score and Market Volatility
The Z-Score Indicator can be used in conjunction with volatility measures, such as the CBOE Volatility Index (VIX), to forecast potential market volatility. Just as a Z-scored VIX above +2 suggests decreasing volatility and the possibility of an upward trend, a Z-scored VIX below -2 indicates increasing volatility and a potential downward trend. This parallel can be used to predict Bitcoin’s potential movements in times of market uncertainty.
How to Use:
The BTC Valuation Indicator, when paired with the Z-Score, provides a more refined statistical framework to analyze Bitcoin’s market conditions. This integration allows traders to assess the severity of potential trends and price anomalies, assisting in the identification of profitable entry and exit points.
Important Considerations:
No Guarantee of Market Predictions: While this indicator is a valuable tool for assessing market conditions, no indicator can guarantee future performance. Always consider multiple factors and use the indicator as part of a comprehensive strategy.
Market Dynamics:
As market conditions evolve, continuously refine your approach. Historical performance may not be indicative of future results, and traders should remain vigilant to changing trends and developments.
By combining the power of moving averages, logarithmic trend lines, and Z-scores, the BTC Valuation Indicator equips investors with a robust, data-driven approach to Bitcoin valuation, enhancing decision-making and enabling a more nuanced understanding of market dynamics.

Puell Multiple BTC | JeffreyTimmermansThe Puell Multiple is a metric that assesses the relationship between mining profitability and market cycles. It is calculated by comparing the daily value of newly issued coins (USD) to the 365-day moving average of daily coin issuance (USD).
This indicator works best on the 1D BTC Chart. When interpreting the Puell Multiple, it can generally be understood as follows:
High values indicate that miner profitability is significantly higher than the yearly average. This may lead to an increased incentive for miners to sell off their holdings, putting additional selling pressure on the market.
Low values suggest that miner profitability is lower than the yearly average. In this case, miners might experience financial strain, causing some to reduce their hash power by shutting down mining rigs. This, in turn, can reduce the number of coins being sold into the market, as remaining miners need to liquidate fewer coins to maintain operations, thereby decreasing the impact on the liquid supply.
The Puell Multiple is a metric used primarily in the cryptocurrency space, specifically for Bitcoin, to assess whether Bitcoin is overvalued or undervalued in relation to its mining rewards. It helps to gauge the profitability of miners and, by extension, to assess market conditions.
Use:
This Puell Multiple is invented for Long-Term, Trend Following Systems.
The Puell Multiple trend can be visualized through the color of the bars, which represents the direction of the trend, while the background indicates the strength of that trend.
Bar Color: The color of the bars typically changes to reflect whether the trend is bullish or bearish. For example, green bars may indicate a strong bullish trend, while red bars signal a bearish or declining trend. The color coding helps to quickly interpret the market's overall movement in relation to mining profitability.
Background Color: The background of the chart is used to reflect the strength of the trend. A darker or more intense background may signify a stronger trend, indicating that the market conditions are more pronounced, while a lighter background can suggest a weaker or more uncertain trend, showing less certainty in the market’s direction.
Together, the combination of bar color and background provides a clearer picture of both the trend's direction and its strength, making it easier to assess potential market behavior based on miner profitability and market cycles.
Puell Multiple and Moving Average: They can be used as an extra tool to confirm the bullish or bearish trend. When the Puell Multiple is above the Moving Average, this will suggest and confirm that the trend is bullish.
How you score this for your own systems is up to you.
