LETF Leveraged Edge Strategy v1.5Overview
The strategy is based on Stochastics to detect trends and then makes Buys and Sell based on custom entry and exit criteria as described below in the Execution Logic Rules section. It will NOT work with standard Stochastics.
This is not a standard Stochastics implementation. It has been customized and modified, and does not match any widely known Stochastics variations (like Fast, Slow, or Full Stochastics) in its smoothing and iterative calculation process with:
• A unique smoothing mechanism.
• Iterative calculations.
• Additional conditional logic for strategy execution.
This strategy is designed to focus on volatile, liquid leveraged ETFs to capture gains equal to or better than Buy and Hold, and mitigate the risk of trading with a goal of reducing drawdown to a lot less than Buy and Hold. It has had successful backtest performance to varying degrees with TQQQ, SOXL, FNGU, TECL, FAS, UPRO, NAIL and SPXL. Results have not been good on other LETFs that have been backtested.
Performance
In this backtest the Net Profit shows to be $4,561 or 45.61%. Considering the initial order size was $1,000 I have to wonder if the Strategy Tester is calculating this correctly. The Strategy Tester Performance Summary shows the Buy and Hold Return at $61,165 or 611.7%. Based on calculating the price of the last shares sold, less the price paid, times the number of initial shares purchased, my math shows the Buy and Hold Gain at $4,572 or about equal with the strategy performance in this case. The Performance Summary also states the strategy had a Max DD of 3.46% which I believe is incorrect. Based on other backtests I’ve done, I believe the strategy drawdown here was closer to 28.4% and the Buy and Hold Drawdown at 82.7%. I manually calculated the Buy and Hold drawdown.
How it Works
The author provides training and support resource materials for this at his website. The strategy execution logic is driven by these rules:
Execution Logic Rules
Buy the LETF When:
BR #1a) The Daily Fast Line (FL) crosses above the Daily Slow Line (SL) and the FL is between the Low (L*) and High (H*) Range set (often referred to as Oversold and Overbought Lines). This can execute (Buy) any trading day of the week.
BR #1b) Re-Buy the next day after any Stop or Take Profit Sell if the Buy Rule condition is true (FL is above SL), if not, remain in cash and wait for the next Buy Signal.
Sell the LETF When:
SR #1a) The Daily Fast Line (FL) crosses below Daily Slow Line (SL) within the Low (L*) and High (H*) Range (often referred to as Oversold and Overbought Lines). “Crossunder Range Exit” This can execute (Sell) any trading day of the week.
SR #1b) If the (FL) crosses Below the SL above the Exit Level*, wait. Only Sell if the FL drops down below the Exit Level* “Crossunder Level Exit” This can execute (Sell) any trading day of the week.
SR #2a) Sell at the open any day the gap-down price is at or below the 1-Day Stop%*, based on previous day’s closing price (Execute on the day it happens.)
SR #2b) Sell intraday any day the price is at or below the 1-Day Stop %*, based on previous day’s closing price (Execute on the day it happens.)
SR #3a) Sell at the open any day the price is at or below the Trailing Stop %*, based on highest intraday price since Buy date (Execute on the day it happens.)
SR #3b) Sell intraday any day the price is at or below the Trailing Stop%*, based on highest intraday price since Buy date (Execute on the day it happens.)
SR #4) Sell any day when the opening price exceeds, or intraday price meets the Profit Target % price* (Execute on the day it happens.)
SR #5) After each Sell go to Rule BR #1b to determine if a Re-Buy should occur the next day, or stay in cash until next Buy Signal

Profit Target: User preference. (I can help with suggestions based on historical performance)
Entry/Exit Conditions
Enter on Tie: Default Checked – if a Fast line crosses a Slow line for a Buy signal, but doesn’t do so in the range set, this will trigger if it crosses at a tie.
Renter – Default Checked – If stopped out of a position, this tells the strategy to re-buy the position the next day if the conditions are still positive.
Exit Level: This is a exit level for a Fast cross below a Slow line that takes place above the Sell Range, but only happens if the Fast continues down to the level set. These usually don’t happen often, but can have a significant impact on performance. Unfortunately, it’s a trial and error process starting with 90 and working down to see if there’s any positive impact.
Trade Range
Buy Range: Start at typical 20 to 80. Expand the low end down first to check on performance impact. Normally a wide buying range is better for performance.
Sell Range: Start at 20 to 80 and tighten gradually to see performance impact. In some cases a very tight sell range does better. I have worked on our primary LETFs for many months to determine ranges for each that typically produce better results.
External Indicator: Some additional indicators have a positive impact on the strategy performance by increasing P/l, reducing drawdown and reducing the number of trades. This is not always the case and each LETF and time period for the LETF will have a bearing on whether the secondary indicator will help or not. Two that have helped are the MACD Histogram, and the Sloe-Velocity Indicator by Kamleshkumar43. Sometimes a couple of different indicators will have a positive impact, then it’s a personal preference which you pick to use with the strategy.
Since this strategy is focused on a very narrow selection of liquid LETFs, I have a lot of experience experimenting with the settings for the primary ones and can suggest things that will help. Additional training on the rules, working with the settings, and mitigating some of the negative trades during choppy markets is available at the website.
Chart
The strategy can be selected to use either a Daily or Weekly version of stochastic. This is important because the characteristics are different while still generating very good gains and minimal drawdowns. Generally, the daily stochastic will have a greater number of, and certainly more frequent, trades than the weekly stochastic. However, on average the daily version of the stochastic will generates greater profitability.
The Settings tabs have tooltip icons that will assist in inputting values that correspond to the written rules for the strategy, and some include specific rule detail.
Buying
The strategy generates Buy signals with the Fast line crossing over the Slow line within a “Buy Range” which is adjusted based on volatility of the leveraged ETF. This is unique in that a default is set for these entries to occur if the values are tied and doesn’t need to be within the high and low range if that occurs. The trader can select in the strategy for this to occur the same day, if he’s selected a Daily Stochastic timeframe, or at the end of the trading week if he’s selected a Weekly stochastic timeframe. The volatility of a leveraged ETF will sometimes cause a shake-out exit, a trailing stop can be hit, or there can be an exit based on taking a profit. A big part of the timing challenge was how to handle these. The strategy normally (set as a default) will immediately re-buy the next day only if the original buy conditions are still true. This helps capture gains when conditions are still favorable but keeps the trader out when they’re not.
Selling
Exits are handled in several ways. The strategy will exit if there is a fast line cross below a slow line within the “range”. The range is adjusted based on volatility of the leveraged ETF. The exit occurs at the close of the day if the trader has selected to use a Daily stochastic setting. The exit will occur at the end of the trading week if the trader has chosen a weekly stochastic strategy. The trader will set a level based on the instrument and volatility for another exit type. The level will sometimes coincide with the range exit high level but does not need to. If a fast line crosses down through a slow line above the level set, and then comes down to that level, the strategy will exit the position.
Another unique aspect of the strategy is the PD Stop setting. This is short for “Prior Day”, Rather than a normal stop based on the price paid for a position, the PD Stop is based on a percentage drop from the previous day’s closing price. This helps account for the volatility of the leveraged ETF and will cause an exit quickly if there’s a market, or index moving event. This helps capture gains and reduce risk should there be continued pullback.
Exits will also occur based on setting a trailing stop level and profit taking level. These are adjusted based on the leveraged ETFs volatility and historical performance.
Limitations
Choppy, or sideways markets are the most prone to poor performance and potential for being stopped out multiple times. If stopped out two consecutive times, make sure you’re monitoring market health and there are clear signs of a new uptrend such as a 10D and 21D MA in proper alignment and moving up. If you get a Buy signal from the strategy and you’re not confident yet about market and price direction then it’s fine to wait a day, or several days, to enter after the Buy signal when you have greater confidence about market direction. The author can help with a short list of tactical rules developed for these sideways or choppy markets.
This strategy has proven successful backtest results with a very limited set of LETFs as discussed earlier. The author does not know if it will prove successful with any others, or other types of ETFs such as 2X or plain ETFs. A lot more testing needs to be done.
The strategy buys and sells , excluding stops or take profit, at the market close. It can be very challenging to enter an order at market close.
Disclaimer
Please remember that past performance may not be indicative of future results.
Due to various factors, including changing market conditions, the strategy may no longer perform as well as in historical backtesting. This post and the script do not provide any financial advice and are for educational and entertainment purposes only.

PUMP IndicatorsPUMP Indicator Description
★ Supported Markets and Assets
The PUMP indicator is a versatile tool that can be effectively applied to various markets and assets, including:
▶ Korean Stocks: KOSPI, KOSDAQ, etc.
▶ U.S. Stocks: NYSE, NASDAQ, etc.
▶ Cryptocurrencies: Major cryptocurrencies such as Bitcoin (BTC), Ethereum (ETH), etc.
▶ Futures: Major futures contracts like gold, silver, crude oil, etc.
▶ ETFs: SPY, QQQ, etc.
★ Indicator Description
The PUMP indicator is designed to analyze price divergence and volatility.
It is provided with minimal representation on the chart, allowing users to use it in conjunction with other indicators, such as classical RSI, TRIX, CCI, ADX, BWI, Bollinger Bands, etc.
Everything displayed on the chart can be turned on or off in the options, allowing users to customize their setup.
The PUMP indicator is based on the concept of the MACD indicator, which calculates the difference between the leading line and the lagging line to generate signals.
GOOD, UP, and CR signals predict price increases.
DOWN and BAD signals predict price decreases.
WARN emphasizes that the buy position is not certain, regardless of price increases or decreases.
Therefore, the PUMP indicator is good to use with other indicators. It visually displays divergence and volatility signals along with the MACD movements below, and users can receive alerts for movements in their interested stocks using the alarm function.
It can be used as an indicator for viewing buy and sell signals, as well as predicting the price flow.
▶ (Drawback) Unlike typical TRIX, RSI, TRIX, CCI, ADX, BWI indicators, which are implemented in a new lower window, the PUMP indicator displays both signals and the leading and lagging lines simultaneously, so it is not implemented in a new window, meaning the baseline may vary depending on the daily chart appearance.
★ The PUMP indicator consists of the following components:
▶ PUMP Indicator Leading and Lagging Lines
PUMP t: Leading line (yellow)
PUMP p: Lagging line (blue)
The MACD displayed at the bottom of the chart calculates the divergence between the PUMP t leading line and the PUMP p lagging line.
▶ EA Formula
The core calculation of the PUMP indicator is as follows:
EA (Exponential Average): 100 * (eavg1 / eavg2)
Where eavg1 is the short-term EMA, and eavg2 is the long-term EMA.
It calculates the divergence of the index.
▶ The PUMP indicator is a fixed indicator (cannot be arbitrarily modified).
▶ Highlights: The method of calculating the interval or number of uses is an important part of the index calculation and is therefore private.
★ Signal Description
The PUMP indicator provides a total of six major signals:
▶ UP Signal: Occurs when the divergence between the MACD PUMP t leading line and PUMP p lagging line narrows, and the divergence of the exponential moving average widens compared to before.
▶ DOWN Signal: Occurs when the MACD PUMP t leading line crosses above the PUMP p lagging line.
▶ GOOD Signal: Represents an UP signal with added volume.
(The GOOD signal is not necessarily better than the UP signal. If a GOOD signal appears in a stock that has sufficiently fallen in price, it helps understand that a rebound has started. Therefore, the GOOD signal is made to find a rebound in stocks that have continuously declined, rather than finding signals in consistently rising prices.)
▶ BAD Signal: Occurs when the PUMP t leading line crosses above the 0 baseline, indicating a potential sell signal.
▶ WARN Signal: A warning signal occurring at high levels, indicating that buying is not recommended (regardless of buy or sell).
▶ CR Signal: Occurs in all sections where the PUMP t leading line crosses below the PUMP p lagging line.
★ Lower MACD Horizontal Baseline
The PUMP indicator provides three horizontal baselines from the MACD indicator for additional analysis:
▶ Pump H
▶ PUMP M
▶ PUMP L
It visually provides the divergence of the lower MACD indicator for rising and falling changes, with the default set to 0, and users can change the numbers in the options as needed.
★ Moving Averages
The PUMP indicator provides three basic moving averages:
▶ Buzz 7: 7-day moving average
▶ Buzz 26: 26-day moving average
▶ Buzz 120: 120-day moving average
The number of moving averages is fixed, but users can use them in conjunction with the moving averages provided by TradingView as needed.
★ Alert Function
Using the Alert function of TradingView, you can set alerts for various signals generated by the PUMP indicator.
▶ GOOD Signal Alert
▶ UP Signal Alert
▶ CR Signal Alert
▶ DOWN Signal Alert
▶ BAD Signal Alert
▶ WARN Signal Alert
★ Usage
1. The PUMP indicator is not focused on buy and sell signals but calculates the current price movement and divergence and is designed to express it through MACD leading and lagging lines and signals.
2. The PUMP indicator can be used alone or in conjunction with other indicators for technical analysis.
3. You can analyze buy and sell using the signals of the PUMP indicator along with fundamental analysis, such as news, issues, national policies, company profits, and sales increases.
4. The MACD leading and lagging lines at the bottom of the chart move inversely to the price, ensuring that the PUMP indicator does not interfere when used with other indicators.
5. You can receive real-time alerts using the alarm function.

★ 지표 설명
PUMP 지표는 가격 이격과 변동성을 분석하도록 설계되었습니다.
사용자가 만든 지표 또는 고전 RSI, TRIX, CCI, ADX, BWI, Bollinger Bands 등과 함께 사용할 수 있게 차트에 최소한의 표현으로 제공됩니다.
그리고 차트에 표현되는 모든 것들을 옵션에서 on / off 가능하게 하였기에 사용자가 커스텀 할 수 있게 하였습니다.
PUMP 지표 신호를 생성하기 위해 선행 라인과 후행 라인 간의 차이를 계산하는 MACD 지표의 개념을 기반으로 합니다.
GOOD, UP, CR 신호는 가격 상승을 예측합니다.
DOWN, BAD 신호는 가격 하락을 예측합니다.
WARN은 가격 상승과 하락에 관계없이, 매수 자리는 확실히 아님을 강조한 신호입니다.
그러므로 PUMP 지표는 다른 지표와 함께 사용하기 좋고, 이격과 변동성을 신호와 하단 MACD 움직임을 눈으로 볼 수 있으며, 알람 기능을 활용하여 관심 있는 종목의 움직임을 알람으로 받아 볼 수 있는 지표입니다.
매수와 매도를 보는 지표로 사용할 수 있으며, 가격의 흐름을 예상하는 지표로 사용할 수 있습니다.
▶ (단점) 보통의 TRIX, RSI, TRIX, CCI, ADX, BWI 지표들은 하단의 새로운 창에서 구현됩니다. 하지만 PUMP 지표는 신호와 하단 선행과 후행을 동시에 표현하기 때문에 새로운 창에서 구현되지 않기에 기준 축이 일봉의 모습에 따라 달라질 수 있습니다.
★ PUMP 지표는 다음과 같은 구성요소로 구성됩니다
▶ PUMP 지표 선행과 후행
PUMP t : 선행라인 (노란색)
PUMP p : 후행라인 (파란색)
차트 하단에 나타나는 MACD는 PUMP t선행라인과 PUMP p 후행라인의 이격도를 계산합니다.
▶ EA공식
PUMP 지표의 핵심 계산식은 다음과 같습니다:
EA(지수평균): 100 * (eavg1 / eavg2)
여기서 eavg1은 단기 EMA이고 eavg2는 장기 EMA입니다.
지수의 이격도를 계산합니다.
▶ PUMP 지표는 고정 지표입니다. (임의 수정 불가)
▶ 강조 : 이격의 계산법이나 사용하는 숫자는 지표 계산의 중요한 부분이므로 비공개입니다.
★ 신호 설명
PUMP 표시등은 총 6개의 주요 신호를 제공합니다:
▶ UP 신호: MACD PUMP t 선행과 PUMP p 후행의 이격이 줄어들 때, 지수 이동 평균의 이격도가 이전 보다 넓어지면 발생합니다.
▶ DOWN 신호: MACD PUMP t 선행이 PUMP p 후행을 상향 교차할 때 발생합니다.
▶ GOOD 신호: 거래량이 추가된 UP 신호를 나타냅니다.
(GOOD 신호가 UP 신호보다 좋다기 보다, 충분히 가격 하락한 종목에서 GOOD 신호가 나온다면 반등이 시작되는 것을 이해할 수 있게 만든 지표입니다. 그러므로 GOOD 신호는 가격이 꾸준히 상승하는 곳에서 신호를 찾기보다, 지속 하락하다 반등을 찾는 신호로 만들었습니다.)
▶ BAD 신호: PUMP t 선행이 0 기준선 이상으로 교차할 때 발생하며, 이는 잠재적인 판매 신호를 나타냅니다.
▶ 경고 신호: 높은 수준에서 발생하는 경고 신호로, 매수가 권장되지 않음을 나타냅니다(매수, 매도와 무관함).
▶ CR 신호: PUMP t 선행 라인이 PUMP p 후행 라인 아래로 교차하는 모든 구간에서 발생합니다.
★ 하단 MACD 가로 기준선
PUMP 표시기는 추가 분석을 위해 MACD 지표에서 3가지 가로 기준을 제공합니다:
▶ pump H
▶ PUMP M
▶ PUMP L
하단의 MACD 지표의 이격도를 상승 및 하강의 변화를 시각적으로 기준을 만들 수 있게 제공하며, 기본은 0으로 제공하고, 사용자의 필요에 따라 옵션에서 숫자를 변경할 수 있게 하였습니다.
★ 이동 평균
PUMP 표시기는 세 가지 기본 이동 평균을 제공 합니다:
▶ Buzz 7: 7일 이동 평균

Sector Rotation Hedging With Volatility Index [TradeDots]The "Sector Rotation Hedging Strategy With Volatility Index" is a comprehensive trading indicator developed to optimally leverage the S&P500 volatility index. It is designed to switch between distinct ETF sectors, strategically hedging to moderate risk exposure during harsh market volatility.
HOW DOES IT WORK
The core of this indicator is grounded on the S&P500 volatility index (VIX) close price and its 60-day moving average. This serves to determine whether the prevailing market volatility is above or below the quarterly average.
In periods of elevated market volatility, risk exposure escalates significantly. Traders retaining stocks in sectors with disproportionately high volatility face increased vulnerability to negative returns. To tackle this, our indicator employs a two-pronged approach utilizing two sequential candlestick close prices to confirm if volatility surpasses the average value.
Upon confirming above-average volatility, a hedging table is deployed to spotlight ETFs with low volatility, such as the Utilities Select Sector SPDR Fund (XLU), to derisk the overall portfolio.
Conversely, in low-volatility conditions, sectors yielding higher returns like the Technology Select Sector SPDR Fund (XLK) are preferred. The hedging table is utilized to earmark high-return sector ETFs.
Thus, during highly volatile market periods, the strategy recommends enhancing portfolio allocation to low-volatility ETFs. During low-volatility windows, the portfolio is calibrated towards high-volatility ETFs for heightened returns.
IMPORTANT CONSIDERATION
In real trading, additional considerations encompassing trading commissions, management fees, and ancillary rotation costs should be factored in. False signals may arise, potentially leading to losses from these fees.
RISK DISCLAIMER
Trading entails substantial risk, and most day traders incur losses. All content, tools, scripts, articles, and education provided by TradeDots serve purely informational and educational purposes. Past performances are not definitive predictors of future results.
CE - 42MACRO Fixed Income and Macro This is Part 2 of 2 from the 42MACRO Recreation Series
However, there will be a bonus Indicator coming soon!
The CE - 42MACRO Fixed Income and Macro Table is a next level Macroeconomic and market analysis indicator.
It aims to provide a probabilistic insight into the market realized GRID Macro regimes,
track a multiplex of important Assets, Indices, Bonds and ETF's to derive extra market insights by showing the most important aggregates and their performance over multiple timeframes... and what that might mean for the whole market direction.
For traders and especially investors, the unique functionalities will be of high value.
Quick guide on how to use it:
docs.google.com
WARNING
By the nature of the macro regimes, the outcomes are more accurate over longer Chart Timeframes (Week to Months).
However, it is also a valuable tool to form an advanced,
market realized, short to medium term bias.
NOTE
This Indicator is intended to be used alongside the 1nd part "CE - 42MACRO Equity Factor"
for a more wholistic approach and higher accuracy.
Methodology:
The Equity Factor Table tracks specifically chosen Assets to identify their performance and add the combined performances together to visualize 42MACRO's GRID Equity Model.
For this it uses the below Assets:
Convertibles ( AMEX:CWB )
Leveraged Loans ( AMEX:BKLN )
High Yield Credit ( AMEX:HYG )
Preferreds ( NASDAQ:PFF )
Emerging Market US$ Bonds ( NASDAQ:EMB )
Long Bond ( NASDAQ:TLT )
5-10yr Treasurys ( NASDAQ:IEF )
5-10yr TIPS ( AMEX:TIP )
0-5yr TIPS ( AMEX:STIP )
EM Local Currency Bonds ( AMEX:EMLC )
BDCs ( AMEX:BIZD )
Barclays Agg ( AMEX:AGG )
Investment Grade Credit ( AMEX:LQD )
MBS ( NASDAQ:MBB )
1-3yr Treasurys ( NASDAQ:SHY )
Bitcoin ( AMEX:BITO )
Industrial Metals ( AMEX:DBB )
Commodities ( AMEX:DBC )
Gold ( AMEX:GLD )
Equity Volatility ( AMEX:VIXM )
Interest Rate Volatility ( AMEX:PFIX )
Energy ( AMEX:USO )
Precious Metals ( AMEX:DBP )
Agriculture ( AMEX:DBA )
US Dollar ( AMEX:UUP )
Inverse US Dollar ( AMEX:UDN )
Functionalities:
Fixed Income and Macro Table
Shows relative market Asset performance
Comes with different Calculation options like RoC,
Sharpe ratio, Sortino ratio, Omega ratio and Normalization
Allows for advanced market (health) performance
Provides the calculated, realized GRID market regimes
Informs about "Risk ON" and "Risk OFF" market states
Visuals - for your best experience only use one (+ BarColoring) at a time:
You can visualize all important metrics:
- GRID regimes of the currently chosen calculation type
- Risk On/Risk Off with background colouring and additional +1/-1 values
- a smoother GRID model
- a smoother Risk On/ Risk Off metric
- Barcoloring for enabled metric of the above
If you have more suggestions, please write me
Fixed Income and Macro:
The visualisation of the relative performance of the different assets provides valuable information about the current market environment and the actual market performance.
It furthermore makes it possible to obtain a deeper understanding of how the interconnected market works and makes it simple to identify the actual market direction,
thus also providing all the information to derive overall market health, market strength or weakness.
Utility:
The Fixed Income and Macro Table is divided in 4 Columns which are the GRID regimes:
Economic Growth:
Goldilocks
Reflation
Economic Contraction:
Inflation
Deflation
Top 5 Fixed Income/ Macro Factors:
Are the values green for a specific Column?
If so then the market reflects the corresponding GRID behavior.
Bottom 5 Fixed Income/ Macro Factors:
Are the values red for a specific Column?
If so then the market reflects the corresponding GRID behavior.
So if we have Goldilocks as current regime we would see green values in the Top 5 Goldilocks Cells and red values in the Bottom 5 Goldilocks Cells.
You will find that Reflation will look similar, as it is also a sign of Economic Growth.
Same is the case for the two Contraction regimes.
******
This Indicator again is based to a majority on 42MACRO's models.
I only brought them into TV and added things on top of it.
If you have questions or need a more in-depth guide DM me.

SPDR TrackerMonitor all SPDR Index Funds in one location! The purpose of this indicator is to review which sectors are trend up vs down to better manage risk against SPY, other funds and/or individual stocks.
With this indicator it may become more apparent which sectors to begin investment in that are at lows compared to others, or use it to determine which stocks may be undervalued or overvalued against SPY.
There is a small table at the bottom where each fund symbol is presented along with it's mode value, last period change as well as last period volume - there's a tooltip that shows the description for each symbol for a quick reminder.
Review the configuration pane where:
Individual funds can have their visibility toggled
Change funds colors
Adjust display mode for each fund (SMA, EMA, VWMA, BBW, Change, ATR, VWAP - many more!)
Some presentation modes may look better on some timeframes vs others, adjust lengths and use anchor point for VWAP.
Future updates may bring about new features, I have some code organization and refactoring to do but wanted to share the idea anyways.
Feel free to drop any suggestions for feature enhancement and I hope it brings success to many, enjoy.

- Defines the time horizon for the Correlation Table
ROC Period
- Defines the time horizon for the Performance Table
Normalization lookback
- Defines the time horizon for the Trend calculation of the ETF's
- For longer term Trends over weeks or months a length of 50 is usually pretty accurate
Visuals:
There is a variety of options to change the visual settings of what is being plotted and the two table positions and additional considerations.
Everything that is relevant in the underlying logic that can help comprehension can be visualized with these options.
Market Correlation:
The Market Correlation Table takes the Correlation of the above ETF's to the Asset on the Chart, it furthermore uses the Normalized KAMA Oscillator by IkkeOmar to analyse the current trend of every single ETF.
It then Implies a Correlation based on the Trend and the Correlation to give a probabilistically adjusted expectation for the future Chart Asset Movement. This is strengthened by taking the average of all Implied Trends.
With this the Correlation Table provides valuable insights about probabilistically likely Movement of the Asset, for Traders and Investors alike, over the defined time duration.
Market Performance:
𝓜𝓪𝓻𝓴𝓮𝓽 𝓟𝓮𝓻𝓯𝓸𝓻𝓶𝓪𝓷𝓬𝓮 𝓣𝓪𝓫𝓵𝓮 is the actual valuable part of this Indicator.
It provides valuable information about the current market environment (whether it's risk on or risk off), the rough GRID models from 42MACRO and the actual market performance.
This allows you to obtain a deeper understanding of how the market works and makes it simple to identify the actual market direction.
Utility:
The 𝓜𝓪𝓻𝓴𝓮𝓽 𝓟𝓮𝓻𝓯𝓸𝓻𝓶𝓪𝓷𝓬𝓮 𝓣𝓪𝓫𝓵𝓮 is divided in 4 Sections which are the GRID regimes:
Economic Growth:
Goldilocks
Reflation
Economic Contraction:
Inflation
Deflation
Top 5 Equity Style Factors:
Are the values green for a specific Column? If so then the market reflects the corresponding GRID behavior.
Bottom 5 Equity Style Factors:
Are the values red for a specific Column? If so then the market reflects the corresponding GRID behavior.
So if we have Goldilocks as current regime we would see green values in the Top 5 Goldilocks Cells and red values in the Bottom 5 Goldilocks Cells.
You will find that Reflation will look similar, as it is also a sign of Economic Growth.
Same is the case for the two Contraction regimes.

Trendflex - Another new Ehlers indicatorSource: Stocks and Commodities V38
Hooray! Another new John Ehlers indicator!
John claims this indicator is lag-less and uses the SPY on the Daily as an example.
This indicator is a slight modification of Reflex, which I have posted here
I think it's better for Stocks and ETFs than Reflex since it factors in long trends. It tends to keep you in winning trades for a long time.
I believe this indicator can be used for entries or exits, potentially both.
Entry
1. Entering Long positions at the pivot low points (Stocks and ETFs)
2. Entering Long when the Reflex crosses above the zero lines (Stocks, ETFs, Commodities )
Exit
1. Exiting Long positions at a new pivot high point (Stocks and ETFs)
2. Exiting Long when the Reflex crosses below the zero lines (Stocks, ETFs, Commodities )
In this example, I place a Long order on the SPY every time the Reflex crosses above the zero level and exit when it crosses below or pops my stop loss, set at 1.5 * Daily ATR.

Directional Momentum Flux StrategyDirectional Momentum Flux (DMF) is a compound indicator designed to surface signals of projected change in directional momentum. The primary goal is to identify possible momentum inflection points and signal them before they happen, which is reached by applying a set of well-known high-level indicators (e.g. DEMA, RSIs, CCIs and VWAP), lower-level indicators (e.g. BOP, PPO and RMOMO), and some special sauce brewed in-house by yours truly.
This strategy is invite-only. Invitations are offered for a one-time fee of $250 payable in several cryptocurrencies (ETH, BTC, DASH, XMR or ZEC). Once you've got an invitation, you will automatically receive updates forever*.
DMF was designed to work across multiple asset classes. Extensive backtesting has been performed over multiple sample series (not just during the bull runs, for example) and against a randomized pool of assets. But don't take my word for it, I've included some time-based backtesting support tools to make it easy-peasy for you to validate the results yourself!
Under the hood, DMF is powered by numerous indicators, including:
✓ Double EMA & Composite SMA;
✓ Double RSI (fast & slow, variable);
✓ Composite StochRSI & VWAP (StochRSI+, two series);
✓ Composite Commodity Channel Index (CCI+, two series);
✓ Volume-Weighted Balance of Power (BOP itself was adapted from BOP_LB, kudos to LazyBear);
✓ Percentage Price Oscillator (PPO, split, two series);
✓ Range-adjusted Momentum Oscillator (RMOMO, my fancy MOM variant);
It crunches all that data and generates signals which are issued in two ways:
✓ Vertical Bands (or VBs) - Entry/Exit windows as vertical bands that remain "lit" (e.g. the background of a series of candles is semi-opaque white) while the top-level signals are showing sufficiently strong BUY signals. These windows are the primary entry/exit targets and can be relied upon with sufficient risk mitigation (e.g. a reasonable stop-loss or other scale-out exit mechanism). A VB followed immediately by an egg is as good as gold.
✓ Eggs - Entry/Exit validation signals that confirm the condition indicated by VBs. A lit VB without an egg in the same or next candle session is considered to be valid , but not safe (see above warning). Waiting for an egg can improve performance at the risk of missing the best possible entry point. Consider your risk tolerance and act accordingly.
Basic Instructions:
✓ Configure The Settings! The defaults are pretty good, but don't be scared to try variations. For example, by default SHORT positions are disabled. You might want to enable them if your risk tolerance allows them. (IMO there's gold on both ends of the rainbow. 🌈)
✓ Pay attention to the VBs. If you see a lit band being placed in an otherwise dark area, it's a projected inflection point. This is expected to be validated and confirmed in the same or immediately following period with an egg. You can enter a LONG position at this time.
✓ Pay attention to the eggs. If you see an egg, it's a confirmation that the VB changes in the same or immediately preceding candle period is valid. If you did not enter or exit your position at the point of the VB shift, now is the time to do so.
✓ Watch for the end of a VB period and be prepared to exit your position quickly as the next egg may be accompanied by a large directional momentum inflection.
Things to Note:
📉 - DMF is designed for day trading with aggressive position TTLs (15m was the upper bound during development and strategy testing). It appears to issue valid signals for other intervals, but it was not designed for >15m and YMMV. Don't go manually opening a LONG with no exit strategy and go to sleep... it probably won't work out to your benefit. You should be prepared to exit positions at any time. (Pro tip: automation is your friend!)
💸 - DMF indicator is not free from risk. As with all investment strategies, it is crucial to exercise caution and only trade with funds you are comfortable losing. DMF does not offer any form of guarantee or warranty, implied or otherwise. If you lose money, your house, your 401K... that's on you. (Pro tip: don't risk anything you're not ready to lose, because losses are part of the game and you WILL have them.)
🤔 - By using this indicator, you understand that any and all risks are the sole and complete responsibility of the end user (yeah, that's you). Don't use it if you're not 100% clear that you know exactly what you're doing. (Pro tip: always ask questions if you're feeling confused.)
⏱ - * Forever in this context means that, where room for improvement exists, I will improve it over time and you'll get all updates until I stop making them. (Pro tip: nobody lives forever.)
