MA20 ATR Trend Failure FilterA volatility-adaptive filter designed to identify early trend invalidation.
This indicator combines a 20-period Moving Average (MA20) with Average True Range (ATR) to dynamically define a lower volatility boundary.
When price closes below this boundary, it signals that the current trend is no longer valid and risk is increasing.
Core Concept（核心思想）
MA defines the trend baseline
ATR measures current market volatility
MA − k × ATR forms a dynamic risk threshold
A close below this threshold = trend failure
👉 中文补充：
这不是反转指标，而是趋势失效过滤器，用于避免在趋势已经被破坏后继续持仓或加仓。
How It Works
Calculate MA20 as the trend reference
Calculate ATR(14) as volatility proxy
Build adaptive bands:
Upper Band = MA20 + k × ATR
Lower Band = MA20 − k × ATR
If close < Lower Band, trend is considered failed
The ATR multiplier k automatically adjusts the tolerance based on volatility, avoiding rigid fixed-percentage rules.
Visual Elements
Yellow line: MA20
Green band: MA20 + k × ATR
Red band: MA20 − k × ATR (key risk boundary)
Red triangle + “FAIL” label: Trend failure signal
Optional background shading to highlight risk zones
Typical Use Cases
Trend-following strategies (exit / reduce exposure)
Breakout strategies (filter false continuation)
Risk management overlay (non-intrusive, no repaint)
Combine with HMA, SuperTrend, structure-based entries

TRV & nTRV - Trimmed Range VolatilityGrid bots require stable volatility measurement - ATR becomes misleading when gaps and sudden spikes distort the average. TRV (Trimmed Range Volatility) is an advanced version of ATR: it filters outliers at the extremes (highest and lowest ranges) and remains unaffected by gaps. This provides real-time, accurate volatility measurement for grid bot setup.Grid bots require stable volatility measurement - ATR becomes misleading when gaps and sudden spikes distort the average. TRV (Trimmed Range Volatility) is an advanced version of ATR: it filters outliers at the extremes (highest and lowest ranges) and remains unaffected by gaps. This provides real-time, accurate volatility measurement for grid bot setup.
Why We Developed TRV?
When a gap or sudden spike occurs in the morning, this extreme movement affects standard ATR calculations for an extended period. Even if the price moves sideways for the rest of the day, ATR remains elevated. This causes grid bots to operate with unnecessarily wide spacing and execute fewer trades.
TRV Advantages:
✅ Unaffected by Gaps: Opening gaps don't distort the calculation
✅ Extreme Point Elimination: Filters the largest and smallest outlier candles
✅ Real-Time Accuracy: Shows current market volatility
✅ Grid Bot Optimization: Enables tighter and more efficient grid spacing
✅ Comparison Capability: Compare different stocks and timeframes with nTRV
Grid Bot Usage:
The TRV value is used directly to calculate the number of grid lines:
(Resistance - Support) / TRV = Number of Grid Lines
Example:
Resistance: $110
Support: $90
TRV: $2
Grid Count: (110-90)/2 = 10 grid lines
Features:
Two Filtering Modes: Manual (enter number) or Percentage-Based (automatic ratio)
Four Indicators in One: nTRV, TRV, ATR, and nATR all displayed on the same panel
nTRV: Normalized value (percentage-based, for stock comparison)
TRV: Absolute value (currency-based, for grid calculation)
ATR & nATR Included: Standard ATR and nATR for direct comparison with TRV
Comprehensive Analysis: Compare filtered (TRV) vs unfiltered (ATR) volatility side-by-side
Default: 10% top, 10% bottom outlier elimination
Conclusion:
TRV is an advanced version of ATR specifically designed for grid bot traders. By filtering outlier movements, it provides more stable and reliable volatility measurement. The indicator includes both TRV (filtered) and ATR (unfiltered) on the same chart, giving traders a comprehensive view to make informed decisions. This dual-display approach enables more efficient grid strategies and increased trading frequency.
BB SPY Mean Reversion Investment StrategySummary
Mean reversion first, continuation second. This strategy targets equities and ETFs on daily timeframes. It waits for price to revert from a Bollinger location with candle and EMA agreement, then manages risk with ATR based exits. Uniqueness comes from two elements working together. One, an adaptive band multiplier driven by volatility of volatility that expands or contracts the envelope as conditions change. Two, a bias memory that re arms the same direction after any stop, target, or time exit until a true opposite signal appears. Add it to a clean chart, use the markers and levels, and select on bar close for conservative alerts. Shapes can move while the bar is open and settle on close.
Scope and intent
• Markets. Currently adapted for SPY, needs to be optimized for other assets
• Timeframes. Daily primary. Other frames are possible but not the default
• Default demo. SPY on daily
• Purpose. Trade mean reversion entries that can chain into a longer swing by splitting holds into ATR or time segments
Originality and usefulness
• Novelty. Adaptive band width from volatility of volatility plus a persistent bias array that keeps the original direction alive across sequential entries until an opposite setup is confirmed
• Failure modes mitigated. False starts in chop are reduced by candle color and EMA location. Missed continuation after a take profit or stop is addressed by the re arm engine. Oversized envelopes during quiet regimes are avoided by the adaptive multiplier
• Testability. Every module has Inputs and visible levels so users can see why a suggestion appears
• Portable yardstick. All risk and targets are expressed in ATR units
Method overview in plain language
The engine measures where price sits relative to Bollinger bands, confirms with candle color and EMA location, requires ADX for shorts(in our case long close since we use it currently as long only), and optionally requires a trend or mean reversion regime using band width percent rank and basis slope. Risk uses ATR for stop, target, and optional breakeven. A small array stores the last confirmed direction. While flat, the engine keeps a pending order in that direction. The array flips only when a true opposite setup appears.
Base measures
• Range basis. True Range smoothed over a user defined ATR Length
• Return basis. Not required
Components
• Bollinger envelope. SMA length and standard deviation multiplier. Entry is based on cross of close through the band with location bias
• Candle and EMA filter. Close relative to open and close relative to EMA align direction
• ADX gate for shorts. Requires minimum trend strength for short trades
• Adaptive multiplier. Band width scales using volatility of volatility so envelopes breathe with conditions
• Regime gate optional. Band width percent rank and basis slope identify trend or mean reversion regimes
• Risk manager. ATR stop, ATR target, optional breakeven, optional time exit
• Bias memory. Array stores last confirmed direction and re arms entries while flat
Fusion rule
Minimum satisfied gates count style. All required gates must be true. Optional gates are controlled in Inputs. Bias memory never overrides an opposite confirmed setup.
Signal rule
• Long setup when close crosses up through the lower band, the bar closes green, and close is above the long EMA
• Short setup when close crosses down through the upper band, the bar closes red, close is below the short EMA, and ADX is above the minimum
• While flat the model keeps a pending order in the stored direction until a true opposite setup appears
• IN LONG or IN SHORT describes states between entry and exit
What you will see on the chart
• Markers for Long and Short setups
• Exit markers from ATR or time rules
• Reference levels for entry, stop, and target
• Bollinger bands and optional adaptive bands
Inputs with guidance
Setup
• Signal timeframe. Uses the chart timeframe
• Invert direction optional. Flips long and short
Logic
• BB Length. Typical 10 to 50. Higher smooths more
• BB Mult. Typical 1.0 to 2.5. Higher widens entries
• EMA Length long. Typical 10 to 50
• EMA Length short. Typical 5 to 30
• ADX Minimum for short. Typical 15 to 35
Filters
• Regime Type. none or trend or mean reversion
• Rank Lookback. Typical 100 to 300
• Basis Slope Length and Threshold. Larger values reduce false trends
Risk
• ATR Length. Typical 10 to 21
• ATR Stop Mult. Typical 1.0 to 3.0
• ATR Take Profit Mult. Typical 2.0 to 5.0
• Breakeven Trigger R. Move stop to entry after the chosen multiple
• Time Exit. Minimum bars and extension when profit exceeds a fraction of ATR
Bias and rearm
• Bias flips kept. Array depth
• Keep rearm when flat. Maintain a pending order while flat
UI
• Show markers and levels. Clean defaults
Usage recipes
Alerts update in real time and can change while the bar forms. Select on bar close for conservative workflows.

Realism and responsible publication
No performance claims. Costs and fills vary by venue. Shapes can move intrabar and settle on close. Strategies use standard candles only.
Honest limitations and failure modes
High impact releases and thin liquidity can break assumptions. Gap heavy symbols may require larger ATR. Very quiet regimes can reduce contrast in the mean reversion signal. If stop and target can both be touched inside one bar, outcome follows the TradingView order model for that bar path.
Regimes with extreme one sided trend and very low volatility can reduce mean reversion edges. Results vary by symbol and venue. Past results never guarantee future outcomes.
Open source reuse and credits
None.
Backtest realism
Costs are realistic for liquid equities. Sizing does not exceed five percent per trade by default. Any departure should be justified by the user.

Apex Edge Sentinel - Stop Loss HUDApex Edge – ATR Sentinel Stop Loss HUD
The Apex Edge – ATR Sentinel is a complete stop-loss intelligence system built as a clean, always-on HUD.
It delivers institutional-level risk guidance by calculating and displaying live ATR-based stop levels for both long and short trades at multiple risk tolerances.
Forget cluttered charts and repainting lines — Sentinel gives you a clear stop-loss reference panel that updates dynamically with every bar.
✅ Features
• Triple ATR Multipliers
User-defined (e.g. x1.5 / x2.0 / x2.5). Compare tight, medium, and wide stops instantly.
• Dual-Side SL Levels
Both Long and Short safe stop prices displayed side by side. No more guessing trend
bias.
• ATR Transparency
HUD shows ATR(length) so you always know the calculation basis. Default = 14, adjustable
to your style.
• ATR Regime Meter
Detects volatility conditions (LOW / NORMAL / HIGH) by comparing ATR to its SMA. Helps
you avoid over-tight stops in high-volatility markets.
• Tick-Aware Rounding
Stop levels auto-rounded to the instrument’s tick size (Gold = 0.10, FX = 0.0001, indices =
whole points).
Custom HUD Design
• Location: Top/Bottom, Left/Right
• Sizes: Compact / Medium / Large (desktop or mobile)
• Opacity control (25% default Apex styling)
How to Use
1. Load Sentinel on your chart.
2. Check the HUD:
• ATR(14): 2.6 → base volatility measure.
• x1.5 / x2.0 / x2.5 → instant SL levels for both long & short trades.
3. Before entering a trade → decide which multiplier matches your style (tight scalper vs wider swing).
4. Manually place your SL at the level displayed in the HUD.
Sentinel works as both:
• A pre-trade check (is ATR stop too wide for my RR?).
• A live risk compass (updated stop levels every bar).
Why Apex Sentinel?
Most ATR stop indicators clutter charts with lagging lines or repainting trails. Sentinel strips it back to what matters:
• The numbers.
• The risk levels.
• The context.
It’s a pure stop-loss HUD, designed for serious traders who want clarity, discipline, and instant reference points across any market or timeframe.
Notes
• This is a HUD-only system (no automatic SL line). Traders manually apply the SL level
shown in the panel.
• Defaults: ATR(14), multipliers 1.5 / 2.0 / 2.5. Adjust to your trading style.
• Best used on intraday pairs like XAUUSD, EURUSD, indices, but works universally.
Apex Edge Philosophy: Clean. Smart. Institutional.
No clutter. No gimmicks. Just precision tools for modern markets.
Trendline Breakout Strategy [KedArc Quant] Description
A single, rule-based system that builds two trendlines from confirmed swing pivots and trades their breakouts, with optional retest, trend-regime gates (EMA / HTF EMA), and ATR-based risk. All parts serve one decision flow: structure → breakout → gated entry → managed risk.
What it does (for traders)
Draws Up line (teal) through the last two Higher Lows and Down line (red) through the last two Lower Highs, then extends them forward.
Long when price breaks above red; Short when price breaks below teal.
Optional Retest entry: after a break, wait for a pullback toward the broken line within an ATR-scaled buffer.
Uses ATR stop and R-multiple target so risk is consistent across symbols/timeframes.
Labels HL1/HL2/LH1/LH2 so non-coders can verify which pivots built each line.
Why these components are combined
Pure breakout systems on trendlines suffer from three practical issues:
False breaks in chop → solved by trend-regime gates (EMA / HTF EMA) that only allow trades aligned with the prevailing trend.
Uneven volatility across markets/timeframes → solved by ATR-based stop/target, normalizing distance so R-multiples are comparable.
First break whipsaws near wedge apices → mitigated by the optional retest rule that demands a pullback/hold before entry.
These modules are not separate indicators with their own signals. They are support roles inside one method.
The pivot engine defines structure, the breakout detector defines signal, the regime gates decide if we’re allowed to take that signal, and the ATR module sizes risk.
Together they make the trendline breakout usable, testable, and explainable.
How it works (mechanism; each component explained)
1) Pivot engine (structure, non-repainting)
Swings are confirmed with ta.pivotlow/high(L, R). A pivot only exists after R bars (no look-ahead), so once plotted, the line built from those pivots will not repaint.
2) Trendline builder (geometry)
Teal line updates when two consecutive pivot lows satisfy HL2.price > HL1.price (and HL2 occurs after HL1).
Red line updates when two consecutive pivot highs satisfy LH2.price < LH1.price.
Lines are extended right and their current value is read every bar via line.get_price().
3) Breakout detector (signal)
On every bar, compute:
crossover(close, redLine) ⇒ Long breakout
crossunder(close, tealLine) ⇒ Short breakdown
4) Regime gates (trend filters, not separate signals)
EMA gate: allow longs only if close > EMA(len), shorts only if close < EMA(len).
HTF EMA gate (optional): same rule on a higher timeframe to avoid fighting the larger trend.
These do not create entries; they simply permit or block the breakout signal.
5) Retest module (optional confirmation)
After a breakout, record the line price. A valid retest occurs if price pulls back within an ATR-scaled buffer toward that broken line and then closes back in the breakout direction.
This reduces first-tick fakeouts.
6) Risk module (position exit)
Initial stop = ATR(len) × atrMult from entry.
Target = tpR × (ATR × atrMult) (e.g., 2R).
This keeps results consistent across instruments/timeframes.
Entries & exits
Long entry
Base: close breaks above red and passes EMA/HTF gates.
Retest (if enabled): after the break, price pulls back near the broken red line (within the ATR buffer) and holds; then enter.
Short entry
Mirror logic with teal (break below & gates), optionally with a retest.
Exit
strategy.exit places ATR stop & R-multiple target automatically.
Optional “flip”: close if the opposite base signal triggers.
How to use it (step-by-step)
Timeframe: 1–15m for intraday, 1–4h for swing.
Start defaults: Pivot L/R = 5, EMA len = 200, ATR len = 14, ATR mult = 2, TP = 2R, Retest = ON.
Tune sensitivity:
Faster lines (more trades): set L/R = 3–4.
Fewer counter-trend trades: enable HTF EMA (e.g., 60-min or Daily).
Visual audit: labels HL1/HL2 & LH1/LH2 show which pivots built each line—verify by eye.
Alerts: use Long breakout, Short breakdown, and Retest alerts to automate.
Originality (why it merits publication)
Trades the visualization: many “auto-trendline” tools only draw lines; this one turns them into testable, alertable rules.
Integrated design: each component has a defined role in the same pipeline—no unrelated indicators bolted together.
Transparent & non-repainting: pivot confirmation removes look-ahead; labels let non-coders understand the setup that produced each signal.
Notes & limitations
Lines update only after pivot confirmation; that lag is intentional to avoid repainting.
Breakouts near an apex can whipsaw; prefer Retest and/or HTF gate in choppy regimes.
Backtests are idealized; forward-test and size risk appropriately.

Turtle Trading System + ATR Trailing StopIndicator Description: Turtle ATR Trailing Stop
The **Turtle ATR Trailing Stop** is a technical indicator designed to enhance the classic Turtle Trading System by incorporating a dynamic trailing stop based on the Average True Range (ATR). This indicator is ideal for traders seeking to manage risk and lock in profits on both long and short positions in trending markets.
Key Features:
- Turtle Trading Levels: Calculates the 20-day highest high and lowest low to identify potential breakout points, a core principle of the Turtle Trading System.
- ATR-Based Trailing Stop: Utilizes a trailing stop that adjusts dynamically based on a multiple of the ATR (default multiplier: 2.0), providing a volatility-adjusted exit mechanism.
- Position Flexibility: Supports both long and short positions, with the trailing stop positioned below the highest price for long trades and above the lowest price for short trades.
- Smooth Updates: The trailing stop updates on each bar, ensuring a more responsive adjustment to price movements, rather than only on new highs or lows.
- Reset Mechanism: Automatically resets the trailing stop when the price deviates significantly (configurable threshold, default 0.1%), adapting to major trend reversals.
- Alerts: Includes customizable alerts that trigger when the price reaches the trailing stop level, notifying traders of potential exit points.
- Debugging Tools: Features an on-chart debug table displaying ATR, Close, Highest Price, Lowest Price, Potential Stop, and Trailing Stop values for real-time analysis.
How It Works:
- For **Long Positions**: The trailing stop starts below the initial close price (minus 2*ATR) and moves up as the highest price increases, locking in profits while trailing at a fixed ATR distance.
- For **Short Positions**: The trailing stop starts above the initial close price (plus 2*ATR) and moves down as the lowest price decreases, protecting against upward price movements.
- The stop resets if the price falls (for long) or rises (for short) beyond the set threshold, ensuring adaptability to new market conditions.
Customization:
- Period Settings: Adjust the length for highs/lows (default 20) and ATR period (default 14).
- ATR Multiplier: Modify the distance of the trailing stop (default 2.0).
- Reset Threshold: Fine-tune the percentage at which the stop resets (default 0.1%).
- Position Type: Switch between "Long" and "Short" modes via input settings.
Usage:
Apply this indicator to any chart in TradingView, set your preferred parameters, and monitor the trailing stop line (yellow) alongside the Turtle highs (red) and lows (blue). Use the debug table to validate calculations and set alerts to stay informed of stop triggers.
This indicator combines the trend-following strength of the Turtle System with a flexible, ATR-based stop-loss strategy, making it a powerful tool for both manual and automated trading strategies.

dev(source, length, anotherSource)
Deviation. Measure the difference between a source in relation to another source
Parameters:
source (float)
length (simple int) : (int) Sequential period to calculate the deviation
anotherSource (float) : (float) Source to compare
Returns: (float) Bollinger Bands Width
variance(src, mean, length, biased, degreesOfFreedom)
Variance. A statistical measurement of the spread between numbers in a data set. More specifically,
variance measures how far each number in the set is from the mean (average), and thus from every other number in the set.
Variance is often depicted by this symbol: σ2. It is used by both analysts and traders to determine volatility and market security.
Parameters:
src (float) : (float) Source to calculate variance
mean (float) : (float) Mean (Moving average)
length (simple int) : (int) The sequential period to calcule the variance (number of values in data set)
biased (simple bool) : (bool) Defines the type of standard deviation. If true, uses biased sample variance (n),
degreesOfFreedom (simple int) : (int) Degrees of freedom. The number of values in the final calculation of a statistic that are free to vary.
Default value is n-1, where n here is length. Only applies when biased parameter is defined as true.
Returns: (float) Standard deviation
stDev(src, length, mean, biased, degreesOfFreedom)
Measure the Standard deviation from a source in relation to it's moving average.
In this implementation, you pass the average as a parameter, allowing a more personalized calculation.
Parameters:
src (float) : (float) Source to calculate standard deviation
length (simple int) : (int) The sequential period to calcule the standard deviation
mean (float) : (float) Moving average.
biased (simple bool) : (bool) Defines the type of standard deviation. If true, uses biased sample variance (n),
else uses unbiased sample variance (n-1 or another value, as long as it is in the range between 1 and n-1), where n=length.
degreesOfFreedom (simple int) : (int) Degrees of freedom. The number of values in the final calculation of a statistic that are free to vary.
Default value is n-1, where n here is length.
Returns: (float) Standard deviation
zscore(src, mean, length, biased, degreesOfFreedom)
Z-Score. A z-score is a statistical measurement that indicates how many standard deviations a data point is from
the mean of a data set. It is also known as a standard score. The formula for calculating a z-score is (x - μ) / σ,
where x is the individual data point, μ is the mean of the data set, and σ is the standard deviation of the data set.
Z-scores are useful in identifying outliers or extreme values in a data set. A positive z-score indicates that the
data point is above the mean, while a negative z-score indicates that the data point is below the mean. A z-score of
0 indicates that the data point is equal to the mean.
Z-scores are often used in hypothesis testing and determining confidence intervals. They can also be used to compare
data sets with different units or scales, as the z-score standardizes the data. Overall, z-scores provide a way to
measure the relative position of a data point in a data
Parameters:
src (float) : (float) Source to calculate z-score
mean (float) : (float) Moving average.
length (simple int) : (int) The sequential period to calcule the standard deviation
biased (simple bool) : (bool) Defines the type of standard deviation. If true, uses biased sample variance (n),
else uses unbiased sample variance (n-1 or another value, as long as it is in the range between 1 and n-1), where n=length.
degreesOfFreedom (simple int) : (int) Degrees of freedom. The number of values in the final calculation of a statistic that are free to vary.
Default value is n-1, where n here is length.

SuperTrend OptimizerHello!
This indicator attempts to optimize Supertrend parameters. To achieve this, 102 parameter combinations are tested concurrently - the top three performers are listed in descending order.
Parameters,
Factor: Changes to this parameter shifts the tested factor range. For instance, increasing the factor measure from 3.00 to 3.01 (+0.01) will remove 3.00 from the tested range - this setting controls the lower threshold of the range. The upper threshold, in all instances, is the lower Factor threshold + 3.3 (i.e. 3.0(lower) - 6.3(upper), 4.0(lower) - 7.3(upper), 2.5(lower) - 5.8(upper))
ATR period: Changes to this parameter shifts the tested ATR period range. For instance, increasing the ATR measure from 10 to 11 (+1) will remove 10 from the tested range - this setting controls the lower threshold of the range. The upper threshold, in all instances, is the lower threshold + 2 (i.e. 10(lower) - 12(upper), 11(lower) - 13(upper), 9(lower), - 11(upper))
The Factor parameter is modifiable to any positive decimal number; the ATR parameter is modifiable to any positive integer. Changing either parameter shifts the tested parameter combination range. Both parameters can be changed in the settings, to which you control the lower threshold of the range. If, for instance, you were to change the Factor measurement from 3.0 to 4.1 (+1.1) the 4.0 Factor measurement, and all Factor measures less than 4.0, will be excluded from the performance test.
Consequently, a Supertrend test will be performed with a Factor of 4.1 and an ATR period of 10 (default). This test repeats at 0.1 Factor intervals and 1.0 ATR intervals.
Therefore, assume you modify the Factor lower threshold to 3.1 and the ATR lower threshold to 10. The indicator will test three Supertrend systems with a Factor of 3.1 and an ATR period of 10.. then 11.. 12, then three systems with a Factor of 3.2 and an ATR period of 10.. then 11.. 12... until (lower Factor threshold + 3.3) and (lower ATR threshold + 2) are tested... which in this example is... a Factor of 6.4 and an ATR period of 12.
The tested Factor range and ATR range are displayed in a bottom right table alongside the top performing parameter combinations.
Of course, you can change the the lower thresholds, which means you can test numerous Supertrend parameter combinations! However, no greater than 102 parameter combinations will be tested simultaneously; the best performing Supertrend parameters are plotted on the chart automatically.
I will be working on this indicator more tomorrow! Let me know if you have questions or anything you would like included!
(I of course added something fun in the script. Be sure to try it with bar replay!)

Volatility State Index [Interakktive]The Volatility State Index (VSI) classifies market volatility into three behavioral states: Expansion, Decay, and Transition. It answers one question visually: Is volatility supporting price movement, withdrawing, or unstable?
Unlike traditional volatility indicators that show levels or bands, VSI diagnoses the current volatility regime so traders can adapt their approach accordingly.
█ WHAT IT DOES
• Classifies volatility into three states: Expansion (teal), Decay (grey), Transition (amber)
• Measures volatility momentum as a percentage rate-of-change
• Applies stability filtering to detect unstable/choppy conditions
• Uses persistence logic to prevent state flickering
• Exports state data for use in alerts and strategies
█ WHAT IT DOES NOT DO
• NO buy/sell signals
• NO entry/exit recommendations
• NO alerts (v1 is diagnostic only)
• NO performance claims
This is a volatility diagnostic tool, not a trading system.
█ HOW IT WORKS
The VSI processes volatility through a five-stage pipeline:
STAGE 1 — Base Volatility
Calculates ATR as the foundation for volatility measurement.
STAGE 2 — Smoothing
Applies EMA smoothing to reduce noise in the volatility series.
STAGE 3 — Volatility Momentum
Computes the percentage rate-of-change of smoothed volatility:
Volatility Momentum (%) = ((Current ATR - Previous ATR) / Previous ATR) × 100
Positive values indicate expanding volatility; negative values indicate contracting volatility.
STAGE 4 — Stability Filter
Tracks how frequently volatility momentum changes direction. Frequent sign changes indicate unstable, choppy conditions.
Stability Score = 1 - (Average Flip Rate)
Low stability forces the Transition state regardless of momentum level.
STAGE 5 — State Classification
Combines momentum thresholds and stability to determine the final state:
• Expansion: Momentum ≥ +5% (default threshold)
• Decay: Momentum ≤ -5% (default threshold)
• Transition: Between thresholds OR low stability
A persistence filter requires states to hold for multiple bars before confirming, preventing visual noise.
█ INTERPRETATION
EXPANSION (Teal)
Volatility is increasing in a sustained way. Price moves are becoming larger.
What it suggests:
• Breakouts are more likely to follow through
• Stops may need wider placement
• Trend-following approaches tend to work better
• Mean-reversion weakens
DECAY (Grey)
Volatility is decreasing. Price is compressing into tighter ranges.
What it suggests:
• Breakouts are more likely to fail
• Ranges tend to hold
• Trend-following underperforms
• Mean-reversion strengthens
TRANSITION (Amber)
Volatility behavior is unclear or unstable. This is NOT neutral — it is uncertainty.
What it suggests:
• Mixed signals — one bar huge, next bar dead
• Higher whipsaw risk
• Reduced conviction in either direction
• Consider waiting for clarity
The key insight: Amber is a warning, not a middle ground. It appears when volatility cannot decide what it wants to do.
█ VISUAL DESIGN
The indicator uses a state-first histogram design:
• Histogram height shows volatility momentum percentage
• Histogram color shows the classified state
• Zero line provides visual anchor
• Optional momentum line for confirmation
• Optional background tint (default OFF for clean charts)
The visual hierarchy prioritizes instant state recognition. A trader should understand the volatility environment in under one second without reading numbers.
█ INPUTS
Core Settings
• ATR Length: Base volatility measurement period (default: 14)
• Smoothing Length: EMA smoothing applied to ATR (default: 10)
• Momentum Length: Rate-of-change lookback (default: 10)
State Classification
• Expansion Threshold (%): Momentum above this = Expansion (default: 5.0)
• Decay Threshold (%): Momentum below this = Decay (default: -5.0)
• Persistence Bars: Bars required to confirm state change (default: 3)
• Stability Lookback: Window for stability calculation (default: 20)
• Stability Threshold: Below this = forced Transition (default: 0.5)
Visual Settings
• Show State Histogram: Toggle main display (default: ON)
• Show Momentum Line: Thin confirmation line (default: OFF)
• Show Zero Line: Baseline reference (default: ON)
• Show Background Tint: Subtle state coloring (default: OFF)
█ DATA WINDOW EXPORTS
When enabled, the following values are exported:
• ATR (Raw)
• ATR (Smoothed)
• Volatility Momentum (%)
• Stability Score (0-1)
• State (-1/0/1): Decay = -1, Transition = 0, Expansion = 1
• Is Expansion (0/1)
• Is Decay (0/1)
• Is Transition (0/1)
These exports allow VSI to be used as a filter in Pine Script strategies or alert conditions.
█ ORIGINALITY
While ATR and volatility indicators are common, VSI is original because it:
1. Classifies volatility into behavioral states rather than showing raw levels
2. Applies momentum analysis to volatility itself (rate-of-change of ATR)
3. Uses stability filtering to detect genuinely unstable conditions
4. Implements persistence logic to prevent state flickering
5. Provides a state-first visual design optimized for instant recognition
VSI is state-first: it classifies volatility regimes (Expansion/Decay/Transition) rather than plotting volatility level alone, using momentum and stability to reduce false regime reads.
This is not a modified ATR or Bollinger Band — it is a volatility regime classifier.
█ SUITABLE MARKETS
Works on: Stocks, Futures, Forex, Crypto
Timeframes: All timeframes — state classification adapts accordingly
Best on: Instruments with consistent volatility patterns

Risk Recommender — (Heatmap)📊 Risk Recommender — Per-Trade & Annualized (Heatmap Columns)
Estimate the optimal risk percentage for any market regime.
This tool dynamically recommends how much of your account equity to risk — either per trade or at a portfolio (annualized) level — using volatility as the guide.
⚙️ How it works
Two distinct modes give you flexibility:
1️⃣ Per-Trade (ATR-based)
• Calculates the current Average True Range (ATR) compared to its long-term baseline.
• When volatility is high (ATR ↑), risk per trade decreases to maintain constant dollar risk.
• When volatility is low (ATR ↓), risk per trade increases within your defined floor and ceiling.
• The display is normalized by stop distance (× ATR) and smoothed to avoid noise.
2️⃣ Annualized (Volatility Targeting)
• Computes realized volatility (standard deviation of log returns) and an EWMA forecast of future volatility.
• Blends current and forecast volatilities to estimate “effective” volatility.
• Scales your base risk so that portfolio volatility converges toward your chosen annual target (e.g., 20%).
• Useful for portfolio-level or systematic strategies that maintain constant volatility exposure.
🎨 Heatmap Visualization
The vertical column graph acts like a thermometer:
• 🟥 Red → “Reduce risk” (volatility high).
• 🟩 Green → “Increase risk” (volatility low).
• Smoothed and bounded between your Floor and Ceiling risk levels.
• Optional dotted guides mark those bounds.
• Label shows the current mode, recommended risk %, and key metrics (ATR ratio or effective volatility).
🔧 Key Inputs
• Base max risk per trade (%) — your normal per-trade risk budget.
• ATR length / Baseline ATR length — control sensitivity to short- vs. long-term volatility.
• Target annualized volatility (%) — portfolio volatility target for quant mode.
• λ (lambda) — smoothing factor for the EWMA volatility forecast (0.90–0.99 typical).
• Floor & Ceiling — clamps the output to avoid extreme sizing.
• Smoothing & Hysteresis — prevent rapid changes in risk recommendations.
🧮 Interpreting the Output
• “Recommended Risk (%)” = suggested portion of equity to risk on the next trade (or current exposure).
• In Per-Trade mode: reflects current ATR ÷ baseline ATR .
• In Annualized mode: reflects target volatility ÷ effective volatility .
• Use the color and height of the column as a quick visual cue for aggressiveness.
💡 Typical Use Cases
• Position-sizing overlay for discretionary traders.
• Volatility-targeting component for algorithmic or multi-asset systems.
• Educational tool to understand how volatility governs prudent risk management.
📘 Notes
• This indicator provides risk suggestions only ; it does not place trades.
• Works on any symbol or timeframe.
• Combine with your own strategy or alerts for full automation.
• All calculations use built-in Pine functions; no proprietary logic.

📊 Performance Notes
The Universal Breakout Strategy is designed as a framework rather than a single-asset optimized system. Results will vary depending on the chart, timeframe, and asset chosen.
On the current defaults (15-minute, INR-denominated example), the backtest produced 132 trades over the selected period. This provides a statistically sufficient sample size.
Win rate (~35%) is relatively low, but this is balanced by a positive reward-to-risk ratio (~1.8). In practice, a lower win rate with larger wins versus smaller losses is sustainable.
The average P&L per trade is close to breakeven under default settings. This is expected, as the strategy is not tuned for a single symbol but offered as a universal breakout framework.
Commissions (0.1%) and slippage (1 tick) are included in the simulation, ensuring realistic conditions.
Risk management is conservative, with order sizing set at 1 unit per trade. This avoids over-leveraging and keeps exposure well under the 5-10% equity risk guideline.
👉 Traders are encouraged to:
Experiment with inputs such as ATR period, breakout length, or Bollinger parameters.
Test across different timeframes and instruments (equities, futures, forex, crypto) to find optimal setups.
Combine with filters (trend direction, volatility regimes, or volume conditions) for further refinement.

EMA ± ATR Channel (True Range)EMA ± ATR Channel (True Range)
Tagline: Adaptive EMA channel with ATR-based volatility bands — perfect for swing trading, intraday setups, and managing risk on high-volatility stocks.
This script plots a dynamic price channel around a configurable EMA using the Average True Range (ATR, Wilder’s True Range) as a volatility buffer.
Upper band = EMA + (ATR × multiplier)
Lower band = EMA – (ATR × multiplier)
📊 Features:
Adjustable EMA length, ATR length, and ATR multiplier
Visual channel fill between upper and lower bands
Optional on-chart help panel with practical combos
⚡ Practical Combos for Volatile Stocks:
EMA 20 + ATR 14 × 2.0 → most common swing trading setup
EMA 10 + ATR 14 × 1.5 → very responsive, good for intraday/high-beta names
EMA 20 + ATR 20 × 2.5 → smoother, wider channel, avoids whipsaws in chaotic stocks
✅ Use cases:
Identify dynamic support/resistance zones
Volatility-based stop-loss & take-profit placement
Spot overextensions from the trend midline

Structural Liquidity Signals [BullByte]Structural Liquidity Signals (SFP, FVG, BOS, AVWAP)
Short description
Detects liquidity sweeps (SFPs) at pivots and PD/W levels, highlights the latest FVG, tracks AVWAP stretch, arms percentile extremes, and triggers after confirmed micro BOS.
Full description
What this tool does
Structural Liquidity Signals shows where price likely tapped liquidity (stop clusters), then waits for structure to actually change before it prints a trigger. It spots:
Liquidity sweeps (SFPs) at recent pivots and at prior day/week highs/lows.
The latest Fair Value Gap (FVG) that often “pulls” price or serves as a reaction zone.
How far price is stretched from two VWAP anchors (one from the latest impulse, one from today’s session), scaled by ATR so it adapts to volatility.
A “percentile” extreme of an internal score. At extremes the script “arms” a setup; it only triggers after a small break of structure (BOS) on a closed bar.
Originality and design rationale, why it’s not “just a mashup”
This is not a mashup for its own sake. It’s a purpose-built flow that links where liquidity is likely to rest with how structure actually changes:
- Liquidity location: We focus on areas where stops commonly cluster—recent pivots and prior day/week highs/lows—then detect sweeps (SFPs) when price wicks beyond and closes back inside.
- Displacement context: We track the last Fair Value Gap (FVG) to account for recent inefficiency that often acts as a magnet or reaction zone.
- Stretch measurement: We anchor VWAP to the latest N-bar impulse and to the Daily session, then normalize stretch by ATR to assess dislocation consistently across assets/timeframes.
- Composite exhaustion: We combine stretch, wick skew, and volume surprise, then bend the result with a tanh transform so extremes are bounded and comparable.
- Dynamic extremes and discipline: Rather than triggering on every sweep, we “arm” at statistical extremes via percent-rank and only fire after a confirmed micro Break of Structure (BOS). This separates “interesting” from “actionable.”
Key concepts
SFP (liquidity sweep): A candle briefly trades beyond a level (where stops sit) and closes back inside. We detect these at:
Pivots (recent swing highs/lows confirmed by “left/right” bars).
Prior Day/Week High/Low (PDH/PDL/PWH/PWL).
FVG (Fair Value Gap): A small 3‑bar gap (bar2 high vs bar1 low, or vice versa). The latest gap often acts like a magnet or reaction zone. We track the most recent Up/Down gap and whether price is inside it.
AVWAP stretch: Distance from an Anchored VWAP divided by ATR (volatility). We use:
Impulse AVWAP: resets on each new N‑bar high/low.
Daily AVWAP: resets each new session.
PR (Percentile Rank): Where the current internal score sits versus its own recent history (0..100). We arm shorts at high PR, longs at low PR.
Micro BOS: A small break of the recent high (for longs) or low (for shorts). This is the “go/no‑go” confirmation.
How the parts work together
Find likely liquidity grabs (SFPs) at pivots and PD/W levels.
Add context from the latest FVG and AVWAP stretch (how far price is from “fair”).
Build a bounded score (so different markets/timeframes are comparable) and compute its percentile (PR).
Arm at extremes (high PR → short candidate; low PR → long candidate).
Only print a trigger after a micro BOS, on a closed bar, with spacing/cooldown rules.
What you see on the chart (legend)
Lines:
Teal line = Impulse AVWAP (resets on new N‑bar extreme).
Aqua line = Daily AVWAP (resets each session).
PDH/PDL/PWH/PWL = prior day/week levels (toggle on/off).
Zones:
Greenish box = latest Up FVG; Reddish box = latest Down FVG.
The shading/border changes after price trades back through it.
SFP labels:
SFP‑P = SFP at Pivot (dotted line marks that pivot’s price).
SFP‑L = SFP at Level (at PDH/PDL/PWH/PWL).
Throttle: To reduce clutter, SFPs are rate‑limited per direction.
Triggers:
Triangle up = long trigger after BOS; triangle down = short trigger after BOS.
Optional badge shows direction and PR at the moment of trigger.
Optional Trigger Zone is an ATR‑sized box around the trigger bar’s close (for visualization only).
Background:
Light green/red shading = a long/short setup is “armed” (not a trigger).
Dashboard (Mini/Pro) — what each item means
PR: Percentile of the internal score (0..100). Near 0 = bullish extreme, near 100 = bearish extreme.
Gauge: Text bar that mirrors PR.
State: Idle, Armed Long (with a countdown), or Armed Short.
Cooldown: Bars remaining before a new setup can arm after a trigger.
Bars Since / Last Px: How long since last trigger and its price.
FVG: Whether price is in the latest Up/Down FVG.
Imp/Day VWAP Dist, PD Dist(ATR): Distance from those references in ATR units.
ATR% (Gate), Trend(HTF): Status of optional regime filters (volatility/trend).
How to use it (step‑by‑step)
Keep the Safety toggles ON (default): triggers/visuals on bar‑close, optional confirmed HTF for trend slope.
Choose timeframe:
Intraday (5m–1h) or Swing (1h–4h). On very fast/thin charts, enable Performance mode and raise spacing/cooldown.
Watch the dashboard:
When PR reaches an extreme and an SFP context is present, the background shades (armed).
Wait for the trigger triangle:
It prints only after a micro BOS on a closed bar and after spacing/cooldown checks.
Use the Trigger Zone box as a visual reference only:
This script never tells you to buy/sell. Apply your own plan for entry, stop, and sizing.
Example:
Bullish: Sweep under PDL (SFP‑L) and reclaim; PR in lower tail arms long; BOS up confirms → long trigger on bar close (ATR-sized trigger zone shown).
Bearish: Sweep above PDH/pivot (SFP‑L/P) and reject; PR in upper tail arms short; BOS down confirms → short trigger on bar close (ATR-sized trigger zone shown).
Settings guide (with “when to adjust”)
Safety & Stability (defaults ON)
Confirm triggers at bar close, Draw visuals at bar close: Keep ON for clean, stable prints.
Use confirmed HTF values: Applies to HTF trend slope only; keeps it from changing until the HTF bar closes.
Performance mode: Turn ON if your chart is busy or laggy.
Core & Context
ATR Length: Bigger = smoother distances; smaller = more reactive.
Impulse AVWAP Anchor: Larger = fewer resets; smaller = resets more often.
Show Daily AVWAP: ON if you want session context.
Use last FVG in logic: ON to include FVG context in arming/score.
Show PDH/PDL/PWH/PWL: ON to see prior day/week levels that often attract sweeps.
Liquidity & Microstructure
Pivot Left/Right: Higher values = stronger/rarer pivots.
Min Wick Ratio (0..1): Higher = only more pronounced SFP wicks qualify.
BOS length: Larger = stricter BOS; smaller = quicker confirmations.
Signal persistence: Keeps SFP context alive for a few bars to avoid flicker.
Signal Gating
Percent‑Rank Lookback: Larger = more stable extremes; smaller = more reactive extremes.
Arm thresholds (qHi/qLo): Move closer to 0.5 to see more arms; move toward 0/1 to see fewer arms.
TTL, Cooldown, Min bars and Min ATR distance: Space out triggers so you’re not reacting to minor noise.
Regime Filters (optional)
ATR percentile gate: Only allow triggers when volatility is at/above a set percentile.
HTF trend gate: Only allow longs when the HTF slope is up (and shorts when it’s down), above a minimum slope.
Visuals & UX
Only show “important” SFPs: Filters pivot SFPs by Volume Z and |Impulse stretch|.
Trigger badges/history and Max badge count: Control label clutter.
Compact labels: Toggle SFP‑P/L vs full names.
Dashboard mode and position; Dark theme.
Reading PR (the built‑in “oscillator”)
PR ~ 0–10: Potential bullish extreme (long side can arm).
PR ~ 90–100: Potential bearish extreme (short side can arm).
Important: “Armed” ≠ “Enter.” A trigger still needs a micro BOS on a closed bar and spacing/cooldown to pass.
Repainting, confirmations, and HTF notes
By default, prints wait for the bar to close; this reduces repaint‑like effects.
Pivot SFPs only appear after the pivot confirms (after the chosen “right” bars).
PD/W levels come from the prior completed candles and do not change intraday.
If you enable confirmed HTF values, the HTF slope will not change until its higher‑timeframe bar completes (safer but slightly delayed).
Performance tips
If labels/zones clutter or the chart lags:
Turn ON Performance mode.
Hide FVG or the Trigger Zone.
Reduce badge history or turn badge history off.
If price scaling looks compressed:
Keep optional “score”/“PR” plots OFF (they overlay price and can affect scaling).
Alerts (neutral)
Structural Liquidity: LONG TRIGGER
Structural Liquidity: SHORT TRIGGER
These fire when a trigger condition is met on a confirmed bar (with defaults).
Limitations and risk
Not every sweep/extreme reverses; false triggers occur, especially on thin markets and low timeframes.
This indicator does not provide entries, exits, or position sizing—use your own plan and risk control.

PumpC ATR Line LevelsPumpC ATR Line Levels
Overview
PumpC ATR Line Levels is a volatility-based indicator that projects potential expansion levels from the previous session’s close using the Average True Range (ATR). This tool builds upon the Previous OHLC framework created by Nephew_Sam_ by extending its session-handling logic and adding ATR-based levels, statistical tracking, and flexible visualization options.
How It Works
Calculates ATR from a user-selectable higher timeframe (default: Daily).
Projects levels above and below the previous session’s close (or current close when preview mode is enabled).
Supports up to 5 ATR multiples, each with independent toggles, colors, and labels.
Optionally displays only the most recent ATR session for clarity.
Includes a data table tracking how often ATR levels are reached or closed beyond.
Features
Configurable ATR timeframe and length (default: 21).
Default multiples: 0.30, 0.60, 0.90; optional: 1.236, 2.00.
Toggle for preview mode (using current close vs. locked prior session close).
Customizable line style, width, colors, and label placement.
Visibility filter to show only on chart TF ≤ 60 minutes.
Session statistics table with counts and percentages of level interactions.
Use Cases
Identify intraday expansion targets or stop placement zones based on volatility.
Evaluate historical tendencies of price respecting or breaking ATR bands.
Support volatility-adjusted trade planning with statistical validation.
Acknowledgment
This script was developed on top of the Previous OHLC indicator by Nephew_Sam_ , with major modifications to implement ATR-driven levels, extended statistics, and customizable table output.
Notes
This indicator does not generate buy/sell signals.
Best applied to intraday charts anchored to a higher-timeframe ATR.
Keep charts clean and avoid non-standard bar types when publishing.
13/48 EMA Trading Scalper (ATR TP/SL)13/48 EMA Trading Scalper (ATR TP/SL)
What it does:
This tool looks for price “touches” of the 13-EMA, only takes CALL entries when the 13 is above the 48 (uptrend) and PUT entries when the 13 is below the 48 (downtrend), and confirms with a simple candle pattern (green > red with expansion for calls, inverse for puts). Touch sensitivity is ATR-scaled, so signals adapt to volatility. Each trade gets auto-drawn entry, TP, and SL lines, colored labels with $ / % distance from entry, plus optional TP/SL hit alerts. A rotating color palette and per-bar label staggering help keep the chart readable. Old objects are auto-pruned via maxTracked.
How it works
Trend filter: 13-EMA vs 48-EMA.
Entry: ATR-scaled touch of the 13-EMA + candle confirmation.
Risk: TP/SL = ATR multiples you control.
Visuals: Entry/TP/SL lines (extend right), vertical entry marker (optional), multi-line labels.
Hygiene: maxTracked keeps only the last N trades’ objects; labels are staggered to reduce overlap.
Alerts: Buy Call, Buy Put, Take Profit Reached, Stop Loss Hit.
Key Inputs
Fast EMA (13), Trend EMA (48), ATR Length (14)
Touch Threshold (x ATR) – how close price must come to the EMA
Take Profit (x ATR), Stop Loss (x ATR)
maxTracked – number of recent trades to keep on chart
Tips
Start with Touch = 0.10–0.20 × ATR; TP=2×ATR, SL=1×ATR, then tune per symbol/timeframe.
Works on intraday and higher TFs; fewer, cleaner signals on higher TFs.
This is an indicator, not a broker—always backtest and manage risk.
Daily ATR TrackerDaily ATR Tracker
The Daily ATR Tracker is a simple yet powerful tool designed to help traders monitor the daily price movement relative to the average daily range (ATR). This indicator provides an objective view of how much price has moved compared to its recent daily volatility.
🔎 Key Features:
Customizable ATR period (default 14 days)
Live calculation of the current day's price range
ATR value displayed in pips for clear reference
Percentage of ATR covered by the current day's range
Color-coded table for quick visual interpretation:
🟢 Green: less than 60% of ATR covered
🟠 Orange: 60% to 100% of ATR covered
🔴 Red: more than 100% of ATR covered
Alert condition when daily range exceeds 100% of the ATR average
Movable table position to fit your chart layout
🎯 Why use Daily ATR Tracker?
✅ Identify exhaustion zones: When price has already covered a large portion of its typical daily range, the odds of further strong movement may diminish, helping you to manage entries, exits, and risk.

Volatility vs ATRVolatility vs ATR Indicator Description for TradingView
Volatility vs ATR is a powerful custom indicator designed to help traders analyze and compare market volatility with the Average True Range (ATR). This indicator provides valuable insights into the dynamic behavior of asset prices, enabling traders to make informed decisions about market trends, potential reversals, and risk management.
What Does It Measure?
Volatility: Represents the degree of price variation over a given period. Calculated using standard deviation or other measures, it highlights periods of heightened or reduced market activity.
Average True Range (ATR): Measures the average range of price movement over a specific period, providing a sense of the asset's price fluctuations and market activity.
How It Works
The indicator plots both Volatility and ATR on the same chart, making it easy to visualize how these metrics interact.
Rising Volatility often signals increased market uncertainty or the beginning of strong trends.
ATR Spikes typically accompany high volatility, helping identify potential breakout or breakdown scenarios.
By tracking the interplay between these metrics, traders can anticipate shifts in momentum, recognize consolidation phases, and plan trades more effectively.
Key Features
Dual-Line Display: Clearly plots both Volatility (red) and ATR (blue) for easy comparison.
Customizable Periods: Allows you to adjust the lookback period for both metrics to match your trading style.
Versatile Application: Works across all asset classes, including stocks, forex, crypto, and commodities.
Why Use Volatility vs ATR?
Trend Analysis: Identify trending vs. ranging markets by observing the relationship between Volatility and ATR.
Breakout Confirmation: Use Volatility and ATR spikes as confirmation signals for potential breakouts.
Risk Management: Plan stop-loss levels and position sizing based on ATR values.
How to Use It
Add the indicator to your chart.
Look for periods where Volatility diverges from ATR to spot potential market shifts.
Use the indicator in conjunction with price action and other technical tools for a comprehensive analysis.
This indicator is ideal for traders looking to enhance their strategies by understanding market dynamics through the lens of volatility and average price movement.
